C. DeSapio Delivers Dull Oration Completed Frosh
A t Democratic Candidates Confab Leaders' Roster
By DAVID KENDIG
S t a t e Democratic leaders convened in Albany last F r i d a y t o find
o u t how they could best continue to
assure victory in future elections.
T h e highlight of t h e event was a
"monstrous rally" for T r u m a n a n d
H a r r i m a n . As political rallies go, it
was n o t m u c h of a success. T h e
Armory w a s barely t h r e e - q u a r t e r s
full, t h e atmosphere w a s generally
a p a t h e t i c , a n d t h e speeches were
long, a n d for t h e most p a r t dull.
But, it w a s n o t without national
significance.
Governor H a r r i m a n spoke poorly
for t h e most part, save when h e
attacked t h e Republican-dominated
Legislature. T h e ovation for H a r r i m a n was n o t profuse, if we consider
t h a t one of t h e purposes of t h e
rally was to present t h e n e x t D e m o cratic Presidential candidate.
Of little casual significance, was
t h e a p p e a r a n c e a n d speech by T a m m a n y leader Carmine DeSapio. Hidd e n in a n outwardly dull address
was t h e a r g u m e n t t h a t no one of
any possible intellect could state
this early in t h e game who the convention choice should be. This was
aimed a t t h e m a n y p r o m i n e n t D e m ocrats who a r e convinced t h a t Stevenson is t h e party's choice. DeSapio,
who almost single handedly h a s resurrected t h e S t a t e Party, a n d boosted t h e H a r r i m a n boom from virtual
obscurity, t h u s laid t h e campaign
strategy for t h e next few m o n t h s .
T h e crowd was expecting a "give
'em Hell" address from Mr. T r u m a n ,
a n d h e did n o t disappoint them.
T h i s fighting, fascinating, former

State s Own Camp?
We would like to thank Religious Clubs
and Debate Council for one of the best ideas
to alleviate the burden being put on social
calendar. With the increase of enrollment
there has been a subsequent increase in
organizations, all of which must schedule
meetings and related events.
It is the desire of Religious Clubs through
the Debate resolution to set up a definite
time at which six organizations, encompassing all but a minute portion of State College's students, may meet without infringing upon other interests of their membership. Besides only requesting two nights a
month the Religious Clubs have further
limited the time of these two gatherings to
a one hour duration after which time (8:30
p.m. by the resolution) any organization
may schedule events without having to
conflict with possible religious meetings.
There is the question, "Why Thursday
night?" That is simple. It has been an established practice for the majority of the
clubs to meet that time. It has become second nature to think of Thursday evening
when one mentions a Religious Club meeting. Those who argue why not meet Sunday could think for a moment and then
they would realize it would be simpler to
the very few meetings with few members
that Religious Clubs are to move to Sunday evening.
The last point to be considered is, perhaps, the most important. The opponents
argue that there would be no discrimination against a person if he chose to attend
a Religious Club meeting instead of Organization X. As college students we can not
be expected to be this naive. If an opening
In Student Council meeting this week the
first step on the way to acquiring a Freshman Camp was disclosed. A camp site has
been located near Lake George (details in
Student Council story, page 1). It is too
early to state whether or not this camp will
be suitable for the requirements of State
College, but even if it isn't, the initiative
has been shown in the right direction. The
administration and students, by working
together, will weigh all possible points, pro
and con, on any site, in order to obtain the
very best. Naturally this is the only logical
procedure when one is working with such
a large amount of money on such an important and permanent matter.
We hope that both groups will continue I D W t A w W i avctVe ?ay Yo»>tfS»yWwii>Wl7
to work closely together on this matter and
if one is purchased, it is our conviction
that it should emcompass moneys from
both treasuries. This will make it truly a
school camp where both academic and recreational programs may be held.

occurs for advancement, those persons who
have shown their undivided attention will
receive the promotion. Also more important than this is the obligation we owe to
each organization to which we belong. As
members we should participate to the utmost, but we should not neglect our religious obligations to ourselves, either.
Spiritual education, no matter what form
it may take, is as much a necessity to a
college student and future teacher as the
benefit derived from other secular activities.
There should be time for both.

avoid the "Junior slump," is revamping many of the old activities
which i t is believed hindered t h e
success of past Junior classes.
In accordance with this, m a n y
new ideas are being introduced and
events rescheduled. One of the new
ideas is a highly successful Junior
Prom. We feel t h a t an outstanding
Junior Prom, in order to be a s u c cess, needs first of all, a good n a m e
band. For this reason, we contracted for Teddy Wilson, one of the
better bands available for proms,
today. Members of the class have
spared no effort in other aspects of
the Prom, as well. Publicity, Decorations, Programs, etc., everything will
be new, and we hope, better this
year.
Last year, the J u n i o r class was
faced with the problem ot keeping
the date of the P r o m in February,
which has never proved too successful, or of finding a new date. We
decided against rescheduling t h e
Prom in February. T h e spring and
the late fall were already taken up
with formats, and it was discovered
t h a t early fall was the only time in
which we wouldn't be competing
with other similar activities
I n all our c h a n g e s in plans, we
have taken into consideration o t h e r
school functions, a n d we sincerely
believe t h a t their success will n o t
be hindered by our innovations
I n this hope, a n d in our a t t e m p t s
to further the J u n i o r class, we feel
t h a t in t h e long run, the school will
also be benefitted

To the S t u d e n t Body:
This letter is n e i t h e r a c o n d e m n a tion nor a reprisal—take it for w h a t
you will. W h a t is S t a t e College? A
myth, a symbol, a nothing? If one
considers t h e situation, h e m u s t
choose the latter. I n contrast to t h e
emptiness of S t a t e , we search for
the vitality and s t r e n g t h of a college.
How shall we analyze S t a t e ?
Where shall we begin? Let us a r b i t rarily pick an i n t r i c a t e force In m o s t
colleges—sorority and fraternity life.
We see a jumble of Greek symbols
and exotic words before us. We c a n not go any further; we are unable
to go any further, since there is no
more. There is not one positive p r o gram which we a r e able to e x a m i n e .

existence are t h e Greek symbols and
the exotic words.
However, a n objective observer
m i g h t point out t h e fact t h a t not
everyone a t S t a t e is f o r t u n a t e or
lucky enough to be a block in the
foundation of these empty shells.
W h a t p a t h shall we now take?
T h e r e should exist a common d e n o m i n a t o r for each and every student. We are all members of a stud e n t body, one whose m a n y functions is to support our athletic
teams which represent us In our
associations with other colleges.
We were deeply aroused by the
deafening roar of t h e tremendous
t h r o n g t h a t witnessed the AlbanyP l a t t s b u r g soccer game. However,
t h e roar came not from S t a t e rooters, and was not for the S t a t e team
—but r a t h e r from a band of nurses
from Albany Hospital whose only
affiliation with t h e team they rooted for was t h a t they were residents
of t h e P l a t t s b u r g area.
T h e scanty group of S t a t e followers seemed overwhelmed and overshadowed by t h e great display of
life and vitality t h a t was put forth
by these young ladies. Of course, in
defense of our school chums, it m u s t
be said t h a t Bleecker S t a d i u m is all
of a five or ten m i n u t e excursion
from their places of residence t h a t
this noble institution has provided
for them.
Is it t h a t S t a t e is afraid to exhibit
a h e a r t and show t h a t it is h u m a n ?
Must we sacrifice our physical and
emotional n a t u r e s and subordinate
t h e m completely to I N T E L L E C TUAL activities. We will not even
a t t e m p t to give an answer.
Statu College is having a Homecoming Weekend commencing on
November 4. Will it be a n o t h e r Ineffectual farce as the previous ones
have been? We see a n o t h e r halfbaked and h a l f - h e a r t e d a t t e m p t in
this pitiful effort a t putting over u
typical collegiate weekend.
T h e r e are so m a n y other facets of
life here at S t a t e t h a t If one closely
scrutinizes them, he will see the
same dismal failure of the futile
efforts of a few. Can we not m e a s ure up to ANY other college in any
respect aside from our academic n a ture? Are we perpetually destined
to be second rate? We hope not!
Is it too much to ask our student,
body to really get behind Homecoming Weekend? Could we not Innovate such new ideas as a parade
of floats from every organization as
(Continued

"Tis an idiot told by a tale,
Full of nothing, signifying sound and
fury."
WONDERFUL, WASN'T IT?
For once, contrary to our expected themes of complaint and criticism,
we extend our sincerest congratulations to Betty Van Vlack and P a t
Hall for r u n n i n g t h e most successful C a m p u s Chest ever—$1,291.15. B u t
credit also must fall upon you—the College—for your individual contributions, each of which, whether small or large, helped amass this total.
But this goes m u c h further, much deeper t h a n Campus Chest as an isolated case in point. For it shows that, given good leaders and a w o r t h while goal, this s t u d e n t body is capable of a unity, a drive, and a cooperation which extends far beyond our usual daily existence. It is the
cooperation a n d desire for achievement t h a t t u r n s an institution from
an inconsistent mass into a power to be reckoned with. We're on the
right track this time. Let's all get aboard!
AIN'T I T A SHAME!
We u n d e r s t a n d t h a t the S L S men are getting burned up because of
the lack of a fire escape for their new house. Anyone for fiddling?
(Approved by R.R.V.)
MUSIC, MUSIC, MUSIC . . .
May we make a humble suggestion in regard to the library procedures? Getting an after hours urge to absorb some Beethoven of an evening, we hiked 17 miles to Hawley in sleet and rain, only to discover
t h a t the guardian of the treasured discs was not on duty this particular
night. Surely for the aid and abetment of such frustrated music lovers
as ourselves, two librarians could be trained in this esoteric art of filing.
BEWITCHED, BOTHERED, AND BEWILDERED . . .
Are you lost? Stolen? Strayed? Do you want to know wha' hoppen'
to your roommate? Where the activity rooms are? How to find t h e ping
pong tables? Well then, hurry, hurry, hurry, step right up to the I n f o r m a tion Desk t h a t SUB has set up inside Bru's front door to help you solve
these "earth s h a k i n g " problems. Oh, yes, they're also there to keep the
hoods from wreaking havoc in the halls.
G I M M E THAT OLD TIME RELIGION . . .
I t may surprise some of our readers t h a t we two old atheists are
in favor of such a move, but we understand t h a t a motion is in progress
by Debate Council to the effect t h a t one hour every other week on
T h u r s d a y evening be set aside for religious club meetings. It certainly
doesn't seem to us t h a t this should meet with very much opposition,
but w h a t do you bet we'll be surprised? Unfortunately Debate Council
neglected to have this passed a t a regular meeting and therefore S t u d e n t Council refused to accept it. Now Phyllis, let's keep it legal! But
better luck next week.
NOAH . . .
According to Richard Sauers, Varsity Club's debut into the world of
Jazz was "real gone." It's too bad the flood kept all but the expert
swimmers marooned in their domiciles. Do try again in the dry season.
Well, didn't it r a i n ! ! !

When will nominations open for head waiter at next week's S t u d e n t

Bundy of the Women's Army Corps,
with whom I had an interview. In
peacetime WAC's are needed as a

with accredited colleges and universities. You may also be sent to college for a year, as was the case with
Major Bundy who was sent to Stanford University to get her Master's

to three months to process candidates.
You can enlist before you receive
your degree and work your way up
through the ranks by applying for

used in a teaching capacity after
basic training.
Nominations for the Junior Prom
Queen will be held at the Junior
class meeting on Tuesday, October
24, in Richardson 20. In previous
years, nominations and elections
were held in assembly, but now, due
to the inadequacy of Page Hall,
they must be held in class meeting.
This procedure meets with the approval of Theresa Barber, Chairman
of Myskania. Other matters to be
discussed at the class meeting will
include the pending Debate Council
resolution, the proposed class blazers, and a Student Council report
will be given. The class wili also
determine whether or not they wish
to reconsider the passed resolution
on whether or not the Junior Prom
should have a King, as well as a
Queen. If the class still favors this
idea, nominations will take place at
this meeting.
At the last class meeting, the
Prom Committee reports were given
and the Juniors decided that flowers would be up to the discretion of
the individuals attending the Prom.
The class also decided to have a
photographer at the Prom to take
pictures of those who so desired.
The Junior class has set its quorum
at 40.

Jim Loricchio was leading the
field with three straight set victories. In the quarter finals, his victim was Dave Champagne by scores
of 6-2, 6-1, thus putting him alone
in the semi-finals.
The tournament opened two weeks
ago, with a field of twenty-five participating. The hopes of many were
torn down, as defaults and defeats
lifted twelve of them. Bob Kampf,
Jim Loricchio, and Carm Virgillo
had first round victories, while all
others advanced via byes and defaults.
In the longest match to date, Paul
Erlckson defeated Bob Kampf in
thirty-eight games, 6-2, 8-10, 6-4.
Erlckson played fine tennis, and
