100 Men Sought For Class of '39

Larger Number of Male Students Will Not Lower Scholastic

Average Greatly

The iiumhcr of men entering State col­lege in the class of l'Ai° will he increased in order to establish a more nearly equal proportion among the men and women students <>f the college, according lo an announcement issued by Dr. A. R. Bru-bneher, president.

Pointing out that the scholastic aver­age from the men entrants would not be much lower than the entrance stand­ards already maintained, Dr. Brttbachcr stated that this policy would he attempted in selecting the incoming freshman class.

"We arc making an effort to increase the number «'f men to 100," Dr. Bru-hacher stated. "We hope thereby to draw students from the village and rural areas nf the state. Last year, if we had admitted as many as 100 men, the scho­lastic average of the lowest entrant would have been around K2 percent instead of the N5 percent standard."

Statistics gathered from the i'des of the NEWS show that the number of men -Indents has been steadily increasing. In 1922 there were M) men in the freshman class. Since that time the number has increased until, in 1932, there were 6-1 freshmen men enrolled. In the coming year, if the proposed plan works satis­factorily, an all-time high of 100 male freshmen will be reached.

State college will undoubtedly derive a great deal of benefit from this increased male enrollment. Sports will lake on an added prestige hccau.se of the wealth of material available. The prospective fool-hall team will lie selected from a squad greatly strengthened by this influx of lirst-year men, and all sports in which State has intcr-collegiatc campeliuion will IK- directly benefited.

Nunan Student Oath Bill Killed By Committee Action Student interest, winch was raised

to a high pitch this week by a reso­lution introduced in assembly last Friday morning favoring the rejec­tion of the Nunan student oath hill, received a cold bath with the Infor­mation that Ihe hill had been killed in Ihe Assembly education committee.

The resolution, which raised a furor in the last assembly period, was laid on the table, supposedly with the intention of bringing it up again this morning for consideration. The action of the Assembly committee, of course, effectively terminates all ne­cessity for action on the pending reso­lution.

Student objection to the bill was based on the grounds that a com­pulsory oath would in no wise guar­antee the integrity of the Stale and Federal constitutions.

Discussion of the so-called "pledge plan" for sludenl tax payments proved the stimulus necessary to muse the student body from the apathy which the NEWS lias hitherto deplored in its editorial columns,

Out of the discussion Inst Friday came a suggestion, extraneous or not, which in our estimation was essentially worthwhile.

The point was made that in the list of activities upon which the student body will pass shortly, men's athletics should be included under one heading in lieu of the usual separate items calling for appropriations tor basketball, tennis, etc.

Carrying tins suggestion a hit farther, would il not be a valuable project to unite the scattered organizations for men on our campus into one organization, intended in foster and solidify sentiment for State college? i /•• - , . - T... , , , , • - • ., mv KMM m

In llie closing minutes of the game, the Trojans held an apparently safe lead of ,11-J.i but the savage rally of Ihe peda­gogue squad proved too much for llietll lo stem.

As the crowd in Ihe jammed stands screamed hysterically, llie Albany out-lit whittled away al Hie I!. P. I. margin and finally lauded out iii front on foul shots by Murray and Finch with only seconds left lo play.

The outstanding performance of llie evening was contributed by George Ban­croft, a worthy successor lo a name lhal is rapidly becoming traditional in Stale athletics. The veteran forward was in llie finest form of his college career, lime and again squelching the R P. I. at­tack as he dove and fought for llie ball like a righting maniac. In addition to his sensational defensive work-, Banuy chalked up nine points, high total for llie home team. Bob Murray and Dan Finch also aided materially in the Stale victory. Finch played a heady game all llie way and gracefully accepted the role of hero in ihe last five seconds after Mur­ray's foul -.but bad knotted the c it.

Dan dropped in llie big one without i|ilivering an eyelash and sent the State '• ITS home happy.

CHIT Rail, in bis fan-well appearance on Ihe Pace ball court, played sleadil) throughout the game and personally led his team lo victory by tossing in a long shot lhal started Ihe last minute rally. Powers of Troy proved very troublesome for the Stale stjuad, scoring freipiently on wild, pivoting shots thai threatened lo disrupi the Slate defense completely.

Ihis satisfying victory in one of the mo,! spectacular games ever played ill Albany is a lining finis for llie best, hardest lighting srpiad Ihe college has ever nrodueed. The summary:

The freshmen defeated their tradi­tional rivals in (he annual freshman-sophomore basketball game last Wed­nesday, 2P-15. The game was rough and full of tumbles, with evidences of football tactics throughout. This vic­tory strengthens the freshman class's lead in inter-class rivalry, HJ3K now leading by eight and a half points In five.

The freshmen played a consistently belter game, leading their rivals all the way with ihe exception of one tie score. Kane and Kodenrys led the freshmen team in scoring with six points each, Harrington and Pember scored high for the sophomores with four points apiece.

Sophomores participating in the game were: Barringlou, Byrnes, Duinont, Kr-wili, llulihan, Pember, Ryan. Fresh­men who played were: Kane, Lawlon, Masko, O'Brien, Rodenrys, Schinil.t. W'asse rn i an . Coach B a k e r w a s r e fe ree .

Since ihe class of 1*135 were victorious over Iliuir sophomore rivals in l'J.32, it has almost become pari of the tradition of the game for the sophomores to win, bin the class of 1938 seems lo have upset the applecart. Willi their three and a half point lead in total rivalry points the freshmen have a good start toward Ihe rivalry cup. The basketball victory awarded three points to llie class.

To the Editors of the STATK COLLEGE

MEWS:

Il is difficult to give my reactions to the, lack of courtesy shown Dr. Kddy in last Friday's assembly. About the only charitable thing to he said is that it was due lo thoughtlessness. However, it seems a rather sad commentary on the character of many of our students that they can forget the simple rules of cour-lesy, particularly so when one considers that these same students are preparing in he the teachers and leaders of the future. Certainly they will demand at­tention of their audiences in the class­room, all hough their message is likely to be far less vital, interesting, and far-reaching than that of the speaker last Friday. Discourtesy is never in fashion; it is not a sign of sophistication, hut a weakness of character horn of ignorance. 1 am glad Dr. Eddy had the courage to bring ii lo our attention.

"Brooding War Storms Threaten Orient", Says Eddy In Address

"If you still have any democratic spirit, send a telegram or spend a three-cent stamp and write the President, urging him to prevent maneuvers of the United Slates Navy in the Aleutian Islands this summer," was the admonishment of Sherwood Eddy in his address before the student assembly Friday morning. He pointed out that the presence of our navy in action so near Japan will promote conflict rather than lean toward peace.

Annual Production in Page Hall Tomorrow Night

Returning recently from a seven months' tour around the world, Mr. Eddy of New York passed through a storm on the Pacific caused by atmos­pheric depressions. "China today," he said, "is such an area of international depression as lo cause the storms, under high pressure from Japanese imperialism on the oast and rising communism on the west, lo sweep over the Far East and Asia,"

The Japanese now see ibree vast Mon­roe Doctrines stretching over the earth: that of the United Stales over the Western hemisphere, thai of Crcal Britain over India, Egypt anil one-quarter of the earth, and that of Soviet Russia over one-sixth of the habitable globe. Japan now seeks to extend her own Monroe Doctrine over China and the Far East as the "self-appointed guardian of the peace of eastern Asia."

Forced to undergo five revolutions all at once, like a patient attacked by live major diseases, while the Western World passed through these great transitions separately during several centuries, and caught in the transition which leads to partial chaos, China is faced with three

Mr. Eddy is making a lecture tour through the United States al present. He came to Stale college direct from Colgate university and concluded bis Albany visit with an address before the Rotary club,

In conclusion, Mr. Eddy forcefully repeated, "As 1 return from the Far East, it is with two convictions. First, we must render every aid in our power to slruggling China. And second, unless we want lo provoke war with Japan all who believe that we have a man of sanity and humanity in Ihe White House should earnestly ask our Presidenf that we shall not conduct our naval maneuvers ibis summer in the Aleutian Islands, which extend like a spear-point directly toward ihe northern islands of Japan, only a few hundred miles away . . .

Tomorrow night in the Page hall auditorium, the men of Stale college will entertain with the annual Troubadour musical production. Edward Kramer, '30, director of the production, primuses an evening brimful of laughs and tuneful humor, combined into a program of male frivolity.

Director Kramer warns everyone to be on hand with the best of spirits, and lists Here a few of the high spots of the program:

1. Not merely one, but two choruses,

2. Novelty skits including a sports parade, Louis Morozc doing his stuff, Harrlmeyer in every other act.

3. World's premiere for Dr. Candlyn's quartet arrangement of "Swanee River" and maestro-composer Cul-len's waltz, "My Vision in Blue."

A. Fiddler Ferrand, whistler Matthews, crooner Kramer, clog-dancer Am-yol, pianists Cullen and Vander-poel, and champion bog callers, the identity of whom is kept secret because some suspense must' be built up, all in action.

5. A nine piece orchestra to play for the intermission.

A ticket for thirty-live cents with a stub, will be Ihe favor of the evening, and the stub will be the passport to a dance in the gym afterwards, to the syncopation of Lew Rider and his "hamonizers."
