Emergency Measure . . .
Dear Gremlin
Today Myskania will introduce a resolution to you, the Student Association, concerning a temporary form of representative
government to be in effect during the time
that Page Hall cannot be used.
Some people think t h a t this temporary
measure is necessary and should be given
a fair trial—not condemned immediately.
The people who drew up this resolution feel
that it is necessary as long as Page cannot
be used for assemblies and as long as there
is no other place large enough to meet.
They see it as the only solution to the problem at the moment. In their eyes it is the
best possible thing for the Association and
should be voted through. If non-compulsory assemblies were held somewhere else,
there would not be a representative group
.present and the opportunity for one group
to pack the assembly would present itself,
On the other hand, although Page, the
traditional meeting place for assemblies
will not be available, It may be that there

resolution for a representative government (which is printed on page
1 of this issue 1 to meet the new
government, crisis. Last night, Myskania approved Betscha's resolution
which is an attempt to meet the
lack of a meeting place for the
present town hall type government.
Page Hall, the former meeting
place for Student Association, will
be under construction from October
1 to January 1. Joseph Anderson
and David Kendig, Juniors, opposed
the resolution and offered the alternate proposal that special assemblies be called in the Brubacher
game room or another suitable
place.
After the resolution had been analyzed by Council, Kendig proposed
a secondary resolution which was
approved by Council and will be
presented to S.A. if the first resolution is passed. This secondary
resolution demands a meeting of the
entire Student Association for a
constitutional change.

Green Gremlins Bombard Frosh Camp;
Freezing Temperatures Enliven Spirits
Draper was not receiving bundles from Britain last
Friday but a new crop of frosh women on their first
trek into the wilderness, better known as Camp Van
Srhoonhoven, the site of the females' hideaway for
the weekend. The pile of duffle bags, blanket rolls and
suitcases might well have indicated that over two
hundred young women had decided to leave home
en masse.
Seven musical bus loads got under way early in the
afternoon. The confusion at Draper continued later
at camp when everyone tried to find her belongings
and the cabin to put them in .When the dust settled
the first thing tested by all was the lake down the
mountain. Some of the counselors tested it by various
means—not voluntary. They were either dunked or
missed their footing while trying to brush their teeth
early in the a.m. After supper in the chill of twilight
two hearty faculty members took the plunge on a dare
and were none the worse for the venture.
Sub-zero temperatures at night brought a run on
the blanket supply. Short-sheeted beds were only a
part of the bedtime routine. Of course, the most
bothersome part of the schedule was the little bugle
that chorused "You gotta get up" at seven in the
morning.
Friday night the counselors entertained; and the
frosh took over Saturday night exhibiting lots of
potential. A real Indian performed some traditional
dances for the campers to keep them from going on
the warpath and scalp-hunting.
Such fun! The fellows who attended Frosh Camp
last weekend surely know what the word "fun" means
in its fullest significance. It all started last Friday
afternoon as song-filled buses traveled to Warner's
Lake and Camps Orinsekwa-Sonnikwa. After we got
half way settled, a maddening scavenger hunt was
annonuced. Oh!—by the way, whoever found the
article on the old rusty nail?
A "Go! Go! Go!" faculty-frosh Softball game was
sparked Saturday, with Prof Olson on the mound. As
tradition rules, the Green Gremlins bowed, the score
being 5-4. "Hoot"—our ump—got the raspberries at
times from the underdog frosh because of his calls,
but maybe he'll make the Dean's list next semester
to compensate. (No hard feelings, "Hoot.") Coach
Hathaway placed a grand slam into right field, and
a homer was in the offing, but It seems that second
base was a little inobvious; it involved a little looking.
Acquaintances were rapidly made as everybody
eagerly put himself into preparations for the skits
on Saturday evening. They really went over with a
bang. And, of course, some of the faculty were around
to judge, thus making the competitnon that much
stiffer.
The hours of sleep were few and far between, but,
after all—there's only one Frosh Camp! Nobody
dropped off to dreamland before at least one a.m.
in our cabin on Friday night; on Saturday night (I
should say morning), it was even later!
All told, it was truly the most

I represented the Forum Board of
Politics of Albany State at the Tenth
Annual Intercollegiate Leadership
Institute on the United Nations,
held at Finch College, New York
City, June 12 to 18. Together with
sixty other students from all sections of the United States, many of
whom were foreign students, we
entered an intensified study of the
workings of this international organization and attempted to create
a national and local policy for the
Collegiate Council for the United
Nations for the coming year.
The week was divided into three
major groupings: tours of the U.N.
buildings, lectures, and committee
work. At the U.N. buildings we were
greeted by members of the Secretariat and then briefed on the workings of the Trusteeship Council and
on the U.N. policy of Technical Assistance.
We visited the Yugoslavian and
Indonesian delegations. The former
iivoided the pertinent questions
about Yugoslavian-U.N. relations
and stressed the physical problems
of his country and the difference
between Yugoslavian Socialism and
Russian Communism.
The Honorable Peter Rasbotham
of the United Kingdom gave a brilliant interpretation of Britain's
U.N. policy. He interpreted the colonial policy of the U.N. to lead nonself governing countries to independence and this to be left to
those concerned and U.N. intervention is a violation of the charter.

we made it in time for the Junior

During the week we spent several
hours in committees formulating
resolutions on pertinent political,
economic and social world problems
which will serve as a guide for the
policy of the Collegiate Council for

Thirty Upperclassmen Turn Out
For Start Of Soccer Campaign
Swiff Scufi
We noticed a young looking guy
at frosh camp and we couldn't figure out whether h e was an older
frosh or a transfer student. The
good looking individual struck us
as a nice easy-going guy. It came as
quite a pleasant surprise to us when
Richard Sauers w a s introduced at
dinner as the new addition to the
Physical Education department and
coach of State's basketball and baseball teams. Later as we approached
t h e navy vet for an interview and
from our talks with a few of the
varsity athletes he'll coach, we
found out our judgments of Coach
Sauers were all true. The young
Slippery Rock Graduate (Class of

(Class of '55) is the kind of guy you

ease and knowing that if you ever

a young guy with good ideas." From
all of us concerned with sports

welcome—and we wish you and the

who have any interest at all to
get out there and place your name
on Garcia's growing list of candidates. Even if you've had no high
school experience it's no reason to
sit on the sidelines if there is any
potential in you. In digging through
old scoop sheets of the soccer squad
we've noticed many top notch hooters actually got their start at the
game at Beverwyck under Garcia's
tutelage. There's only one way t'o
show the Coach and yourself whether it's in you or not and that's to
get out there and find out.
Garcia also h a s a n appeal out
for men to become managers and
publicity men for the squad. The
importance of publicity men should
not be under-estimated as no team
can gain a following without men
to spread the word of their feats.
For managers there's also a big
prize in store for your efforts as
they are eligible for the coveted varsity "S" letter.
