T h e afternoon performance, Shaw's Pygmalion, was a delight to t h e e n tire audience. T h e familiar plot was m a d e even more fascinating by the superior technical skill of t h e group. M a n y of t h e real laughs stemmed, not from t h e lines alone, but from t h e ingenious m o v e m e n t and gesture which t h e group e m ployed. T h e scene in Mrs. Higgins' study was hilarious in lines and d e livery, but it was especially funny due to two s i t u a t i o n s created by t h e Irish actors. T h e simultaneous lifting and lowering of the tea cups caused one of t h e longest a n d loudest laughs of the show. Also the tortured, trapped position of Higgins, when left with only one seat—between two revolting women—provoked laughter and showed the superb technique of a professional group a n d fine direction. plays were done without sets a n d with a m i n i m u m a m o u n t of props, and yet were accepted as complete performances further a t t e s t s to t h e ability of t h e actors. Lavish sets were not missed In our envelopment in the performances before us. Each character was a complete personality, showing thorough u n d e r s t a n d ing of the role, and t h e doubling-up of p a r t s did not h a m p e r this impression. Ronald Ibbs, with the male leads in both shows, is a n excellent example of this. He is a truly fine actor and Is deserving of any a n d all praise t h a t should ccime his way. His portrayal of 'shadow' In C h r i s tianity made an excellent c o n t r a s t to Phyllis Ryan's 'substance'. Miss R y a n was t h e other o u t s t a n d i n g performer of the day. T o the role of Brigid she gave w a r m t h , u n d e r standing, compassion, and a vital h u m a n quality. She was always t h e frail country girl consumed by her simple but deep religious feelings. I t is plain to see why this role m a d e a star of Miss Ryan, a n d why she is t h e major interpreter of t h e role on today's stage.

T h e speaker was from Alcoholics Anonymous, and he spoke of "The Psychotherapy of Alcoholics." T h e speaker explained the origin of A.A., which was started by a NewYork broker known as the "half c e n t u r y " because he had been to Bellevue Hospital 50 times for alcoholism. He collaborated with a n Akron, Ohio doctor, and together they formed the first Alcoholics Anonymous. "An alcoholic is a person whose life has become unmanageable because of alcohol," explained the speaker. He told the audience w h a t Alcoholics Anonymous is and how it operates. " T h e first thing a person finds in Alcoholics Anonymous," said the speaker, "is friendship. T h e cure is based on group therapy, or talking things over."

FRIDAY, APRIL 3 0 . 1954 Myskania Candidates Ntws Within The News... By HOPKINS and COOPER Tuesday evening tne News board approved a change in the State College News constitution that will be a radical innovation from our traditional system. The gist of the amendment is that News board elections with the exception of sports staff will be held in January instead of May, when most of the organizations on campus elect their new officers. This change nas been discussed for quite a few years, and we welcome it with the hope that it will aid in improving the quality of our staff and the quality of our paper. The new editors will be selected from the Juniors on the News staff and will serve in their new capacities second semester of their Junior year and first semester of their Senior year. After having had first-hand experience, we feel that practice teaching and running a newspaper are not very compatible. This new system will leave our editors with second semester of their Senior year free from any responsibility to News so they may pursue the more important issue of earning a degree. It will also alleviate the conmsed condition of the P.O. and its occupants in September when a new staff takes over, tries to organize itself, ana publish a paper every Friday along with all the other confusion that occurs when classes recommence. We feel that this amendment will prove to be very beneficial to our organization and the school as a whole. We would like to see tradition sacrificed for the sake of efficiency in Student Association elections as well. The beginning of second semester has always been a dull spot on our social calendar; May will always be cluttered with activities. From our exchange papers we note that many other colleges already hold January elections and many more are trying to initiate the practice. This policy might prove to be the "shot in the arm" that will do more for enlivening SA than representative government ever could be. Take note, please, Government Revision Committee. Scene: A smoke-filled caucus room. Usual meeting place of Student Council. Today filled with a milling throng of eager spectators waiting to hear evidence presented on both sides in the case of Hopkins and Cooper vs. The World. Chairman Brown opens the hearing by nervously tapping his gavel and calling for order. Brown: The defendants are charged with exerting excessive pressures upon Student Association through their activities with the Common Stater. The first witness for the defense will come to the stand. (Hopkins is brought to the stand, obviously shaken but attempting to retain her composure while castingbaleful looks at Cooper, her former co-author.) Brown: Exactly what sort of pressures are you attempting to exert in your column? Hopkins: Well, you see, we thought it would be a good idea to get the Seniors out for MUD since it's their last chance to sing with '54 and they really should cast off a little of their apathy and come. (An obscure spectator in the rear rises to his feet, waving a paper in the air, and demands the attention of the chair.) HI Y* HAHOSOKC \ Brown: Hopkins: PteU&ential CHARLES BECKWITH I offer as my platform the following' points: Student Government has been in a rather confused state this year. I personally feel that compulsory attendance at assemblies is the best plan for us to follow. We, as future teachers and leaders, should feel it our obligation to have a working knowledge of student government and the best way to gain this knowledge is to actively participate in our government here at State. With a minimum amount of planning involved, I feel assured that a completely fair system of attendance at compulsory assemblies could be established. However, if you, Student Association, Indicate the desire for representative government, I shall do all By far the cleverest and most successful I can to work with you. If such a campaign undertaken by Campus Commis- plan were adopted, I would try to sion this year is the "No Smoking in the keep all channels of communication to the entire student body so Halls" drive that has caught the attention open that everyone could follow and be of almost everyone who travels from the aware of everything' that is going Commons to Richardson.

Largest of debate events on the East Coast, this tourney included discussion (four rounds), four rounds of debating, two rounds of extemporaneous speaking, and congressional debate which was entered by the more than 30 colleges 'n the tourney, held April 13, 14, and 15. The Institute of International Education has notifed Elizabeth Hunter "54 that she is the recipient of the Fulbrlg;ht Award for academic study in Italy. She will study at the American Academy at Rome from September to June, 1954-56. Miss Hunter plans to become an instructor of the classics and feels her work in Italy will provide a valuable background. She is specifically interested in Ostia, the chief commercial city of Imperial Rome, and hopes to learn more about the private lives of the ancient Romans by studying the ruins in that region. She will major in ancient languages. The Fulbright awards are government grants which are given on the senior and junior levels. The junior award, which Miss Hunter won, is given to college graduates with a B.A. degree.

S State Faces Utica At Bleeker In Opener Today; Tussle With New Paltz Nine On Road Tomorrow Q*om lit* £*UlinU Teams To Vie In IM Softball; By BOB ASHFIELD This afternoon, if old man weather behaves himself long enough, the baseball enthusiasts here at State will be treated to the first game of the season. The opposition will be furnished by the Utica Nine and the festivities will be in Bleecker Stadium, so don't forget to be on hand. Baseball is probably the toughest of all college sports to promote, yet It is one of the most popular national sports. It just seems strange that there should be such a contrast. What could be the difference? Naturally the quality isn't as good, but even a sandlot game can provide its thrills. Nothing can be done to change some of the obstacles blocking college baseball's glory such as shortness of season and nearness to the end of the semester plus weather conditions. But one thing could be done here at State which we believe would add to the interest of the game, if nothing more. That is to formulate some kind of a league, whereby we would have some means of comparing our team's strength. This would provide a goal greater than that of just winning, one of leading the league. In our way of thinking, competing for league honors is the greatest of all forms of competition; there is more incentive and will to win. For example, everyone recognizes that the Harlem Globe Trotters are a good team, but just how good they are no one can say. You get some idea when they win, say 10 out oi 18 exhibition games with the College All-States, but what more is that than a modified league with 2 teams involved. Not only can the plea be limited to baseball, think what it would mean to the basketball team. A 13-7, won-lost record may not look impressive overall, but in a league it could mean first place. Wonlost records would begin to mean something when comparing the opposition. What could anyone derive from Plattsburg's 13-1! record before they played us? You couldn't say theirs was a better or poorer record than ours, because the two teams had met different opposition. We believe much could be done in the way of helping the varsity sports here by attempting to organize leagues, maybe of the State Colleges in the University or of the area teams. The plan would promote all State's varsity teams but would give a real extra boost to baseball. Any fellows who are interested in becoming a varsity manager should contact either Coach Hathaway or Coach Garcia. The openings are presently for a baseball manager and a soccer manager to work with the spring scrimmages and to continue next fall. The AA Board has made out its budget for the coming year and will hold an open hearing next Thursday night in Brubacher. This is the time for anyone who disagrees with any of the items or lines in the budget to appear and make his comments. Sign up sheets will be posted on the MAA bulletin board today for those students who arc interested in participating in the badminton, tennis, and golf tournaments. Be sure to sign up before next Wednesday as that is the deadline. The badminton tourney will have singles, men's doubles, women's doubles, and mixed doubles. This tournament is also open to the faculty members. Bob Strauber and Ted Duprey are directing the golf tourney, while Fran Rodgers is in charge of the tennis matches. Rain Cancels Opening Game The Intramural Softball season prepared to open last Tuesday afternoon, but a conflict with the Albany Monsoon season prevented any games from being played. As the softballers and Manager of the League Don Canonlca looked sadly out the windows watching Jupe Pluvius's great fresh tears patter against the panes, they looked at the meager five weeks of school which remained and started to think about playing a schedule of games at Bleeker Field in addition to the ones planned for Page Field. Frats Hold Practice Sessions Most of the squads have already conducted informal practice sessions, and as usual, the fraternity clubs appear to be the best organized, and the ones with the best chance of taking the championship. Last year's champion APA team again looks like the club to beat in this year's race. Fastballer John Allasio will be back on the mound, while veterans Jim Bennett, Bill Walker and John Zongrone should provide a nucleus for a sound fielding and solid hitting club. Potter Club, last year's runnerup, will miss its great battery of Pete Teller and Ray Gibb, but the club appears to have come up with a steller hurler in freshman "Rocky" Roeckleln. They will also have an almost all-veteran infield, including Nels LaRoe, Gerry McDonald and Don Canonica. SLS, KB Feature Hurlers SLS will have the good fortune of having Carmen "The Great" Corsi come out of the semi-retirement imposed on him by the rigors of graduate work to pitch. Catching his slants will be Nick Cassevoy. The squad will be paced by veterans Frank Geslak, Stan Howlett and Bill Small. The KB team will have two pitchers sharing the hurling duties: "Junk Ball" Blattinan and "Big" Dick Kirch. Leading the stickers will be Bob Sturm, one of last year's top sluggers, along with Arnie Smith, Ron Reuss and Ralph Moot. One of the stronger Independent teams should be Ridge House, a squad made up of experienced, well seasoned ballplayers. Ray Downes is slated to hurl, with "Slug" Bottlno, veteran of many years of athletic club ballplaying, backing him up behind the plate. "Rabbit" Burr, sure fingered second baseman, will hold up the infield on defense. SLS, Apaches Capture Crowns; Zidik, Borden Individual Leaders SLS gained its second straight bowling crown Tuesday by downing APA in the final game of the season. APA's defeat was somewhat brightened, however, by having their second string brothers, the APAches, capture the Downstairs League title in another fight to the finish with the KraBs. SLS's battle went down to the last game as APA set them back in the first two games. Then with only one game separating the con- A P A Garners Volleyball Crown APA won the Volleyball Championship of the school, beating Potter Club in a tightly-played 4-game series. The scores were 11-15, 15-7, 15-13, and 1U-14. The lineup for APA included Murphy, Walter. Kane, Walker, Allasio, Hull and Krug; while the Potter Club squad consisted of LaRoe. Smith, Stark, Donnelly, Sage, Krchniak, Centra and Kelly. The APA six was sparked by the superb spiking of Captain Don Krug and Whit Walter, and the expert set-ups of John Allasio, but as in most volleyball victories, the real hero was the entire team, which made few mistakes on offense or defense. For the Potter team, Joe Kelly with his bullet serves and Dave Stark and John Centra with their slamming spikes were outstanding. In one semi-final match, APA nosed out the Indians 13-15, 15-13, and 15-12. The Indians were paced by Ben Button and Ev Weiermiller. Potter defeated the SLS squad in the other semi-final 10-15, 15-7, and 15-8. Howlett was the top point maker for SLS. tenders, SLS came through with the clincher in the loop's final game. The scoresheets for the day showed Bob Slnkledam again leading the league with a 522 series on games of 183, 161, and 178. SLS's one-two punch of Zidik and Shumanski came through in their usual form, John getting a 468 and Tom a 466. Shumanskl's 198 single represented the day's high. In the other loop match, Hilltop, after 13 weeks of consecutive match defeats, turned back Sayles 3-1. Bernie Theobold stole match honors by splitting the maples for a 469 triple. Joe Swierzowski led the Hilltoppers. APAches Capture Downstairs Title The Downstairs League's "lastditch stand" found the APAches emerging victorious on the strength of a 3-1 conquest of the KraBs. APAches team honors were split by Bill Monsell and Ed Rockstroh, who both turned in 439 efforts. Ralph Moot's 204 finale and 475 triple were more than enough to garner the day's honors. The Rousers, meanwhile, were handed four wins on a College Heights forfeit. Statistics released by the loop ofticials show Bob Sinkledam's 629 triple lo be tops for the year. Bob Hughes's 244 single was also listed as the season's best. In the Downstairs League single match honors were shared by Ralph Moot and Joe Sapko. Moot came up with a 225 single, while Sapko had a 541 triple. Individual honors went to veterans John Zidik and Tom Shumanski. John carried a 168 average, while Tom had 166. Dave Borden led the Downstairs loop on the strength of a 153 average, and was followed by Jack Wilson with 149.

Tomorrow the Hathawaymen will take to the road for a clash with the New Paltz diamond aggregation. The Peds squad features nine veterans and twelve newcomers and although not bubbling with optimism they possess a quiet confidence and a great deal of the spirit which means so much in winning ball games. Since our last reports on the squad the pitching staff has greatly improved.
