OH* OH fA* AtiU By JOHN LAING

The Dublin Players have come and gone, but they will long be remem­bered for the i r ar t is t ry, amiability, and performances in two fine plays. The af ternoon performance, Shaw's Pygmalion, was a delight to the en­tire audience. The familiar plot was made even more fascinating by the superior technical skill of the group. Many of the real laughs stemmed, not from the lines alone, but from the ingenious movement and gesture which the group em­ployed. The scene in Mrs. Higgins' study was hilarious in lines and de­livery, but it was especially funny due to two s i tuat ions created by the Irish actors. The s imultaneous lift­ing and lowering of the tea cups caused one of the longest and loud­est laughs of the show. Also the tor­tured, t rapped position of Higgins, when left with only one seat—be­tween two revolting women—pro­voked laughter and showed the su­perb technique of a professional group and fine direction.

The evening play, Paul Vincent Carroll 's Shadow and Substance, gave further proof of the Dublin Players ' abilities. The fact tha t both

Freshmen To Discuss Course Requirements

All freshmen, except biology m a j ­ors, should plan to a t tend orienta­tion on Monday, April 26, at 3:30, the day we re turn from spring va­cation. At this t ime, they will be expected to meet with the chair­man of the depar tmen t in which they plan to major. Directions will be given for course requirements and there will be a chance to ask questions.

Biology majors will report directly to Miss Scotland on Tuesday, April 27th. S tudents are advised to watch t h e S t u d e n t Personnel Office Bul­letin Board for the meet ing place.

plays were done without sets and with a minimum a m o u n t of props, and yet were accepted as complete performances further a t tes ts to the ability of the actors. Lavish sets were not missed In our envelopment in the performances before us. Each

character was a complete person­ality, showing thorough under s t and­ing of the role, and the doubling-up of par ts did not hamper this im­pression. Ronald Ibbs, with the male leads in both shows, is an excellent example of this. He is a truly fine actor and Is deserving of any and all praise that should ccime his way. His portrayal of 'shadow' In Chris­tianity made an excellent cont ras t to Phyllis Ryan's 'substance' . Miss Ryan was the other outs tanding performer of the day. To the role of Brigid she gave warmth , under­standing, compassion, and a vital human quality. She was always the frail country girl consumed by her simple but deep religious feelings. I t is plain to see why this role made a star of Miss Ryan, and why she is the major interpreter of the role on today's stage.

Offstage, these actors are all t ha t could be desired. Friendly, interest­ed and interesting, appreciative, and always charming, they gained the admirat ion and respect of all those who worked with them. Their pres­ent tour began last September, and has taken them to all par t s of this country. Arizona is, to Miss Ryan, the beginning and end of scenery, but she, like the others , will be happy to re turn to her nat ive I r e ­land come May. "It will be good to walk down the streets and say 'how d'you do' to our friends again. But I 'm afraid we'll be bores, talking all the time about America," s tates the amiable Miss Ryan. The next stop in their tour is "Saratoga something-or-other . Is it . . Springs?" asks Miss Ryan with the charming Irish lilt in her voice.

Guild Performs For Veterans

Radio Guild will present the show "Three Strikes and You're Out" a t the Veterans ' Hospital th is week. Last week the Guild enter ta ined the veterans with the show "A $100,000 for a Wife." T h e Sta te College s tu­dents who part icipated are William Floyd '54, Emelia Sgambat i '57, Bev­erly Sadownick and Charles Crow-der, freshmen.

Psychology Club Presents Lecture On Alcoholics

The Psychology Club presented the first speaker for the semester Tuesday n ight in Brubacher, an ­nounces Donald Howard '57, Pres i ­dent of the Psychology Club. The speaker was from Alcoholics Anon­ymous, and he spoke of "The Psy­chotherapy of Alcoholics."

The speaker explained the origin of A.A., which was started by a New-York broker known as the "half century" because he had been to Bellevue Hospital 50 times for al­coholism. He collaborated with an 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 what Alcoholics Anonymous is and how it operates. "The first thing a per­son finds in Alcoholics Anonymous," said the speaker, "is friendship. The cure is based on group therapy, or talking things over."

The Psychology Club is presenting two films Tuesday night, April 13. announced Howard.

PA6I ft STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, APRIL 30, 1954

Ntws Within The News... Tuesday evening tne News board ap­

proved 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.

Subtle Hintt . . . By far the cleverest and most successful

campaign undertaken by Campus Commis­sion this year is the "No Smoking in the Halls" drive that has caught the attention of almost everyone who travels from the Commons to Richardson. In place of the usual uninspired notices such as those in railroad stations and dynamite plants, CC has substituted witty but forceful sugges­tions on small cards in no-smoking areas. All reports attest to the success of this plan and the disappearance of offending tobacco fiends from the halls and stairways. We think the commission deserves a bouquet (or at least a carton of their favorite brand) for solving such a distasteful job in such a subtle and effective way. Thanks too to SA for cooperating with a smile.

HI Y * HAHOSOKC \

PteU&ential PlaijfVimt 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 I can to work with you. If such a plan were adopted, I would try to keep all channels of communication open to the entire student body so that everyone could follow and be aware of everything' that is going on in the government.

Secondly, student interest at State needs rejuvenation!!! This is evi­denced by the lack of interest shown in a large scale All-College Revue as was originally planned. It is my hope that such a Revue will take place next year.

The lack of interest has also been shown by the fact that there are entirely too many people who are willing to decline nomination for office. I feel that n workable plan could be established to enforce the need for competition in all elections.

A renewed interest in Student Council would require its members to voice their opinions in assemblies of the association—opinions which they freely offer In Student Council meetings.

Thirdly, other colleges have a very successful program which I think would be very good to In­stitute here at State. Under this program, which could be culled a "Library Week," all classes are sus­pended lor a week. During this time, students can devote them­selves to their library work, such as writing term papers, doing out­side reading and other research projects. I should like very much to work with the college administra­tion and faculty In Initiating such a program.

Fourthly, our college needs much more outside publicity to make it more well known. One way to gain lavorable publicity for our school would be by the expansion of our athletic program. If elected, I shall do all I can to Improve State Col­lege's public relations.

I have been able to spend this past year In observing, working on various projects and broadening my knowledge of the school and its activities. I offer my policies and my experience as a foundation for a rejuvenated Student government. All you need offer are your votes.

JOAN CARLIN

My platform is based on one de­sire, that of working toward de­veloping a situation and attitude in the members of Student Association which will incite them to have a working interest in our government affairs. I feel that there are several avenues through which we can work towards this ideal.

I am in favor of government re­vision as long as the change made results in a belter system than that which we have now. Until that time I think the present system should be maintained with one addition: a better distribution of classes in the assembly which could be worked out through the Assembly Seating Committee.

Also, the assemblies should be varied and made more interesting with a separation ol business and entertainment assemblies.

I feel that the strength of Student Association depends on how well-informed the classes are. T h i s awareness which would result in more intelligent discussion in as­semblies could be stimulated by frequent reports to the classes by their Student Council representa­tives of what is going on in Council.

There should be an improvement in the publicizing of all open meet­ings of all boards or commissions.

A big factor in arousing more school spirit is to encourage strong support of all college activities. One event that could be cited here is the All-College Revue. I think the Director and Co-ordliiatur should be chosen in the Spring before the year that the show is to be put on. They could then publicize lor com­mittee heads and scripts. In the fall, there would be a committee ready to begin choosing a script and doing the basic organization for the Revue which would be put on at a convenient time in accord­ance with the Social Calendar. We must also work towards better pub­lication and support of our sports events. Our teams have done a terrific job tills year. T h r o u g h strong backing of such events as Soccer, Basketball and Wrestling, we can feel that we are actively participating in pushing our teams to the top. However, I feel that we should Increase interest not only in varsity sports but in the intra-murals sponsored by MAA and WAA.

Large turnouts at. all ol the college events have been hindered In past years by the uneven distribution ol the college activities. Tills situa­tion could be alleviated by more careful scheduling on the part ol the Social Calendar 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 casting-baleful 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.)

Joe: Point of order. Mr. Chairman, I have in my hands a photograph of the sing at last year's MUD. Neither of the defendants appears in this picture. Obviously, they are guilty of exerting influence towards participation in a function in which they do not be­lieve themselves.

Brown: This is a point of order?

Hopkins: This is a photograph?

Joe: This is a perfectly fine photograph. Of course, we had to cut it a little to make it fit the frame

(The crowd breaks into unrestrained cheers, com­mending the wisdom of their representative. Hopkins is seized by the herd and carried to the dorm field to meet her fate.)

Ilrown: The next witness for the defense.

(Cooper comes proudly to the stand, looking neither to the right nor left. His nervous agitation is only betrayed by his habit of chewing on his lapel.)

Brown: Mr. Cooper, have you and your cohort at­tempted to exert any other forms of pressure upon State students?

Cooper: Shucks, we've just been tryin' to get people to think about their votin' so that they get some good leaders next year, and we in no way attempted to influence their votes.

Joe: They told people how to vote upon at least one occasion. I know they have.

Cooper: We just don't advocate the overthrow of the pre.sent form of government.

Brown: That sounds noble.

Joe: That sounds suspicious.

iMurmurs from the crowd.)

Brown: Is it true that you exerted pressure to obtain a Fulbright Fellowship for a State College Student so that the name of NYSCT could be carried to the streets of Rome and the canals of Venice?

Cooper: Us? Oct a fellowship? Ha!

Joe: All we do is to try to entertain the people. We tell them funny stories like this one: "I learned virtue at my mother's knee but lor vice I had to go lo some other low joint."

i The enraged crowd bursts into a prolonged roar, lushes to the stand and seizes Cooper by the throat. Blown manages to convince them that they should do their business elsewhere, so they take Cooper out lo joint his partner in crime.i

Brown: This closes the proceedings. Case dis­missed.

Joe: Point of order. Who is The Masked Rider?

DE Club Visits Packing Plant

Eighty members of the Distribu­tive Education Club visited the Al­bany Division of the Tobin Pack­ing Company Tuesday evening, April 28, to observe the processing, packaging, and shipping of meat products. After touring the vari­ous departments in the plant, the group viewed a motion picture on the meat industry, entitled "This Is Life." This was followed by a short talk by the plant superintendent on various phases of the meat packing industry. The field trip was con­cluded with a buffet supper and members of the group received samples of meat products as they left the plant.

Arrangements for the visit were made by Walter Hegeman, assist­ant sales manager, and Reno S. Knouse, Professor of Merchandis­ing, sponsor of the DE Cluo.

Winner Of Scholarship To Study A Year In Italy

Debaters Cop High Honors In Tournament

For the second straight year, STATE COLLEGE speakers copped the majority of honors in the East­ern Forensic Tournament, held at New York University, Washington Square.

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.

Pour State speakers who placed among the five top speakers in dis­cussion were: James Thompson, 2nd, Richard Shaper, 4th, Paul Saimond, 5th, Seniors, and Richard Clifford, 3rd, '57. Thompson and Clifford received plaques and other speakers received gold-engraved certificates of distinction for framing.

JoAnne Doyle was the only wom­an speaker to place in the entire forensic event; she was fourth in congressional debate. Miss Doyle was also selected by the Washington Square host school to act as hostess at the tea table on the final day, when contest awards were made.

Richard Clifford was highest ranking individual for State, since he brought home plaques in both extemporaneous speaking and dis­cussion. He was second-ranking' extemporaneous speaker in the con­test, speaking on "The Saar Basin Dispute."

Other speakers from State who entered the event were: Sylvia Semmler '54, Jean Morris '55, Aud­rey Schmidt, and Jetta Schwartz-man, freshmen, all of whom were registered in discussion and con­gressional debate.

Fordham University, Georgetown Foreign Service College, Rutgers, and the University of Vermont were winners in debate, which State did not enter.

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. The senior awards are given to those people studying for their Ph.D.'s.

The purpose of the awards is to promote better understanding of the United States and the people of other countries. The program is supervised by the Board of Foreign Scholarships, composed of ten lead­ing American educators and educa­tional administrators appointed by the President.

Miss Hunter, following the regular procedure after application, was first screened by a local committee. The final selection was made by the International Education Committee.

The Fulbright Award pays all the expenses for transportation, a lan­guage refresher of orientation course abroad, tuition, books, and main­tenance for one academic year, hi the currency of the participating countries.

In order to be eligible for this grant, the applicant must be a United States citizen, have a college degree, knowledge of the language of the country sufficient to carry on the proposed study, and good health.

Selection is made on the basis of the applicant's personal qualifi­cations, academic record, value of the proposed study or research, and suitability for placement in an in­stitution of higher learning abroad.

State Faces Utica At Bleeker In Opener Today; Tussle With New Paltz Nine On Road Tomorrow Q*om lit* £*UlinU

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. Won-lost 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.

Teams To Vie In IM Softball; 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 runner-up, 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" Bot-tlno, 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.

McCormacIc Returns To The Mound To Bolster State's Pitching Staff

It's "Play Ball" today as the State's 1954 Nine pries the lid off the new season in their opener with Utica College at 2:00 this afternoon at Bleecker Stadium. 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. John McCormack, mound ace of years _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ^ ^ ^ _ ^ _ _ past, has been added to coach Hath-

KD Tops Phi Delt In Volleyball Tilt; Chi Sis Wins Too

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 "last-ditch 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.

State Students Read Papers At Conference Delcgatei Represent State At Science Confab The eighth annual Eastern Col­

leges Science Conference was' held at Brooklyn College April 23 and 24, 1954. The conference, first organized at Vassar College in 1947, was de­signed to stimulate interest among undergraduates of the colleges of the East both in natural sciences and in their relation to other fields of learning. The conferences pre­sent an excellent opportunity for students of the different colleges to come together to exchange ideas and to discuss contemporary and tradi­tional scientific problems. These conferences provide a means by which students may present orig­inal research papers to fellow stu­dents and participate in discussions concerning new developments In their respective fields.

Delegates heard talks by six pro­fessional scientists, participated in panel presentations of original re­search papers, and visited various points of scientific interest in the city of New York.

Dr. Paul C. Lemon, associate pro­fessor of Biology, was the delegate from State College. Student papers were submitted by Harold Schwager '56 on "Fauna of an Abandoned Mine in Montgomery County, New York" and Robert Sturm '54 on "Fleas of Small Mammals."

Success of the conferences was due to the all-college effort of the student organizations and their faculty helpers.
