as well as sport jackets,
records, crowds, the color blue, con­
vertibles, (speaking of cars, have
you seen the neat car Betty
drives?). French fries are her fa­
vorite food.
(They’re fattening,
too). Gosh, Betty’s a brave girl.
Dislikes are any kind of fish, dead
or alive, also worms. I’ll bet she
just hates fishing. Betty must not

people that talk a lot are on the list.
Betty is a very active girl, and
especially so since she is editor of
the Bricks and Ivy.
Betty has
worked on the B. and I. for four
years, and last year she was liter­
ary editor. Being on the staff, she
has gone to New York for two
years to the conventions. Her ad­
vice to future conventioners is to
store up plenty of energy before
going.
Thanks for the advice
Betty. She is -also a member of
Sigma, the French Club, and the
CRIMSON AND WHITE staff. She
has been girls’ sports editor, but
recently resigned her position as the
Bricks and Ivy takes too much
time. Our loss is their gain.
Herideal man is tall, like all
o^w^s, a U|ood dancer with person­
ality, atmgiie, dohgh't laugh at his
own J«^es, and has good taste in
clothes. (Maybe that’s because
her own good taste and pretty
clothes.)
Some of Betty’s ambitions are to
fly an airplane and to set off a fire­
cracker in the library, and may her
dreams all come true. (Ill bet Mrs.
Moore and Miss Jackman would
disagree, however).

A.S.W.C. Begins
Yea/s Activities
With Usual Bang
The Albany Student War Council,
founded in 1942 by Dick Bates, for­
mer president of the Milne Student
Council, has begun another year of
activities. This is the third year of
the War Council and it is the first
year the president lias not been
from Milne. Dick Bates, as founder,
was the first president, and Kenny
Stephenson held the office last year.
The honor this year goes to
Stephanie Bunting of Albany High.
Other officers are John Summers,
C.B.A., treasurer, and Ruth Welsh,
Milne, secretary.
The business
^manager has not yet been elected.
All Schools Represented
Each ^chool in the city is repre­
sented on the council. One senior
and one junior are elected to serve
for the school year. In this way
there is always someone experi­
enced serving. All members have
not been elected yet.
However,
Eve Willard is one of the St. Ag­
nes’ representatives, Jane Sabeskis
represents St. Joseph’s, George Ross
serves the Albany Boys Academy
and
Paul Allamend
represents
Hackett Junior High.
Ruth Welsh, ’45, and Phil Stod­
dard, ’46, are Milne’s representa­
tives. As yet, no advisers have been
chosen, but there will be one from
the public schools, one from the
private schools, and one from the
Parochial School. Dr. Robert Fred­
rick, principal of Milne, was chair­
man of the school commission last
year.
Meets Monthly
The council meets once a m-iith
to discuss bond sales, scrap drives,
canteens, and ways to promote
other youth organizations and good
will between schools. The date of
the annual dance hasn’t yet been
deeided.
The war council has an excellent
record of past performances. Among
other things, they arranged for ap­
plication and training of all high
school students interested in Christ­
mas work.
Milne Record Bad!
War bond and stamp sales are
an important part of their work,
and so far Milne is the moet un­
cooperative school on record.
Ted Carlson, president of
Milne Student Council asks, >Do
you want this sort of a recA’a for
Milne?” Then he added, “Of^purse
not, so let’s get our bond saMs up
where they belong!”,

This week sees only one release
of worth.
Columbia has Frank
Sinatra singing “White Christmas.”
Frankie does it as well as Bing and
shows that, at times, he is in a class
all by himself.
Some records that are being re­
issued prove that the old songs
can’t be beaten. Among them is the
mortal “Star Dust” done immorta4i*ri»ijKqmmy Dorsey. This repothly and expertly

VanV Sinatra's new program on
onday night helps him keep near

Perry Como has replaced Johnny
Mercer on the Chesterfield hour.
This ought to help make this bari­
tone’s fan mail increase by leaps
and bounds.
Benny Goodman’s younger brother
is manager of Artie Shav/’s newly
i’ormepl band. Freddy can play the
trumpet with almost as much skill
as Benny.
Johnnie Johnston has been signed
to sing on his own program. He’s
sponsored by Chesterfield’s, also.
This gives them a complete halfhour of song by two up and com­
ing stars.
