Dr. Moose plan to incorporate recent campus happenings into the

Future meetings, during the Lenten season, of Canterbury Club, will
include similar discussions on current problems and their relation to
the Christian philosophy of life.

Help Week . . .
W e were happy to see that, once more this year,
Inter-Sorority Council has traded fun and foibles
for fun and constructive enterprizes with the substitution of Help Week, which begins Monday, for
the former Hell Week. All next week the pledges of
seven sororities on campus will be taking part in a
program which is receiving more and more attention in colleges throughout the country—that of
channeling the imaginations and ambitions of hazing experts into more positive and durable results.
It seems that, in order to become a member of a
closely knit group with recognized social standing,
the nominee must somehow prove his worth, or, in
some cases, prove that he can take it. What better
way to prove something more than the ability to
take a joke than to devote time to charity organiaztions, youth centers, and the like? The fun of the
initiation period remains, but only, we hope, as an
incidental factor to a far better purpose—Help. We
hope that in years to come this will become an established and expanded tradition at State.

STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 27, 108S
NEBULOUS SUBTLETIES
During the past two weeks we have noticed an Increased amount of carelessness on the part of the
student body in the cafeteria. No one seems to be responsible enough to pick up his garbage after he has
finished eating. Even when dishes, paper, etc., are
piled high on the table, many people pile them still
higher. Also, the leaving of coke and milk bottles on
the floor in the annex is becoming a hazard to intercafeteria travel. We have heard many complaints
about the unhealthy conditions which prevail in the
cafeteria, and we feel that we have no one to blame
but ourselves. If every student would take it upon
himself to pick up his dishes and papers after finishing his lunch, our cafeteria wolud be quite a bit
neater, and complaints would be fewer.
UNINTELLIGIBLE MESS
There have meen many complaints concerning the
newly acquired television set, which has been placed
in the lower lounge at Brubacher. We feel that some
of these are justified. Perhaps the most constructive
complaint is that of placing the set in the lounge In
the first place. Since the Television set has been there,
the lounge has lost its advantages for quiet study and
is in a constant state of disorder. The furniture has
been forced to one end of the room, the lights are
usually out and the noise of thg set is, at times, unbearable. Before the permanent aerial has been Installed we would suggest that SUB look Into the possibility of putting the set into one of the activity
rooms, This would probably have many advantages
over the present system,
The only difficulty that comes to mind is that of
furniture for the room—if SUB could furnish such a
room and find some furniture for it, we might have
a place for study and a place for TV viewing, at the
same time.
WORN OUT CLICHES
We note with interest the sudden upswing of activities of certain fraternities, as the day of reckoning
jtyaws, pear. Last mjnute jitters have m^de the fraternities pu(, put a pall fp|: a ftpaf and glorious blast
of feverish activity, In the hope that all will npt be
lost. We hope that the freshmen men will not let
their vision be clouded by such furtive actions.
PUERILE COMPLAINTS
We were sorry to hear that many people did not
enjoy the performance of Emlyn Williams last Tuesday. We found it very difficult to understand why
some individuals coulc) come a way frpm the auditorium
wholly unimpressed, and even be critical of D and A
for bringing Mr. Williams to State. We believe D and
A should be highly commended for putting on such
an event and we hope they will continue the policy
in the future,
VENOMOUS DIATRIBES
Undoubtedly we will again be confronted with the
problem of compulsory insurance in the verj near
future. The two choices will probably be compulsory
insurance or a new, higher insurance rate for those
who want a policy. We are inclined to favor the
former, yet we would first Investigate other insurance
companies to see what they have to offer. We have
become so involved with our present company that
we might have overlooked advantages which could be
offered'by others for the same price. We do not mean
to say that the present company Is not deserving of
commendation, but there are undoubtedly others who
might give them a little competition if we were to
notify these companies of our desires. This competition would probably bring about some compromise
which wpuld be advantageous to us.

State Succumbs
To Fair Gaiety
"Now where shall we go?" was
the word at State Fair as people
milled around the concessions
full of fantasy, humor, and food.
Hot dogs and coke were transformed Into camel's rolls and
oasis guzzle in the unbelievable
world of Psi Gamma's Arabian
cafe. Food and paintings were
sold by the faculty. The delectable pop corn, punch, and other
edibles brought satisfied expressions to the faces in the crowds.
Students could try their careful aim at targets, such as the
members of Myskania; and
were transported to the world of
freaks and the era of the Nicklcodcon. Several brave couples
took the leap and got married
at the Fair.
Prizes, applause, and piano
selections brought a fitting close
to the gaiety of State Fair for
another year.

The curtains opened on a curiouslooking object made of wood. It was
slightly ornamental and looked like
the distant relative of a desk. It
stood on a small red rug that was
not visible to the entire audience.
The rest of the stage was bare. The
"desk" was soon bathed in a torrent
of warm and brilliant light. There
was a brief moment of complete silence, a stir, and Mr. Wtl'lams walked on. He was dressed quite fastidiously in a black suit and waistcoat,
circa 1880. He had a long black
beard and a multitude of hair. He
carried a number of volumes, faded
in color and considerable in size.
He walked to his "desk," put the
books down gently and proceeded
to take off his gloves. He did so with
an infinite amount of care and not
without obvious relish. When the
gloves were off he thrust them on
the desk. About him was an air of
accomplishment and triumph. He
looked at his audience. He seemed
surprised to And people in the balcony. He picked up one of the volumes, beheld its title from a distance, drew it closer and began to
read.
There followed one of the most
satisfying and memorable experiences ever to be found within a
theatre. His voice, an Instrument of
extraordinary range and magnificent
quality, brought music to the audience. It sang and laughed and painted vivid pictures of great beauty.
His mobile face contorted into an
endless parade of striking poses, an
inexhaustible variety of expressions
that ran from the sublime to the
ridiculous. And through it all beamed the radiance of his own personality, a forceful but charming one,
vital and warm. He seemed to love
what he was doing and eager to
share his enthusiasm for his material with the audience. He seemed,
indeed, to be very fond of his audience.

For the past six months the
dwindling number of readers of the

of disgusting trivia and puerile complaints.
Combining the venomous diatribes of a cobra and worn-out
cliches, this column has deteriorated
to an unintelligible mess unworthy
of as fine a paper as the NEWS.
The feeble attempts at erudition
have resulted only in adding this
column to the cult of unintelligibility. The vague Innuendoes and nebulous subleties have been so obscure that they have escaped the
comprehension of all but a select
many.
Where are the days of the constructive criticism and wit of
Schultz and Eade, Gorskie and
Kyle, Dunn and Peene? Now is the
time to exchange mediocrity and
bland utterances for positive opinions concerning State's problems
and views better-representing the
student body.
Yours truly,
David E. Gardinier '53

There are ashtrays in the Commons.
They were placed there, not as an
item of decoration, but for YOUR
CIGARETTE BUTTS. Only an extremely lazy person cannot reach an
ashtray and should be forced to use
the floor. Did someone say there
aren't enough ashtrays? Then perhaps those persons who pocketed
the table ashtrays that were placed
there will be kind enough to return
them to the Commons. Tell me,
doesn't your conscience bother you?
Another item which is perhaps even
more important than these cigarette butts which are so sloppily
stamped on the floor, is the matter
of those Coke bottles which are
rolling all over the floor and covering every available writing space on
tables and seats. If you find that
you're too weak, after finishing
your coke, to carry the bottle out
with you and to place it in one of

The College Library has recently
purchased a new set of books entitled, "The Great Ideas, a Syntopicon of Great Books of the Western World." It is composed of fiftyfour volumes, which according to
its editors are preeminently those
which have given the western tradition its life and light.
"The Great Ideas," the second
and third volumes, are a collection
of the topics which are the main
themes of the conversation to be
found in the Great Books. The
terms are arranged in alphabetical
order. The volumes consist of 102
chapters, each containing an essay
on the idea under consideration,
followed by an outline of the topic
and the references which locate, by
volume and page, the relevant works
and passages in the Great Books,
Consisting of over 1,000 topics, the
Syntopicon is both a book to be
read and a reference book.
New records have also been added
to the College Library announces
Miss Mary E. Cobb, librarian. Record acquisitions include Beethoven's
"Movement in D major, Opus 12,"
Mendelssohn's "Symphony 9," Mnafredini's "Christmas Concerto," Debussy's "Pelleas and Melisandre,"
Delebe's excerpts from the ballet,
"Coppella and Sylvia," and John

of the A and B Leagues respectively
as a result of final matches played

to Nels LaRoe, whose sterling defense, and whose last second hoop

who has regained the old touch, the
drive and spark that we all knew
he had.

In B League, SLS coasted to the
championship by splitting their

Paltz was an easy victim for State

Peds iounds themselves trailing Willimantic by four with only 30 seconds to go in last Monday's contest. Two hoops by Nels LaRoe tied
the game at 75-75, and State went
on to win easily in the overtime 8779.
