PAGE 6 STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, JANUARY It, 1046 Basketball Season Sees KD, Phi Delt, Chi Si 3 Win By MARY LIZ SULLIVAN And so begins another year . . . We have been snooping around try- ing to see if anyone has made any New Year's resolutions and surpris- ingly enough a few people have. We were talking to one person today who told us a story of the thin per- son and the plump person who go around together. The reason for this is that each of them keeps the other from doing the things they really shouldn't do anyway. To ex- plain this is in reality a small scale "health"? program in which "thinnie" keeps "plumpie" from eat- ing more than one helping of des- sert, candy, etc. Plumpie recipro- cates by making thinnie wear her glasses (she has bad eyes because of Vitamin deficiency) eat more, take her "Be Built Up Quick The Easy Way" pills and many other things. This is really something to watch- probably In eight or ten weeks thin- nie will be plump and plumpie will be thin, if so we'll let you know. As for any other resolutions, as far as we have been able to find out, most of them have been broken already. Tsk, tsk and we've only been back one week. No Snow Well, last year at this time, WAA was planning a sleigh-ride. Almost everyone around here knows that in order to have a sleigh-ride—that is successful at least, there must be snow. Right about now the only thing we could have is a mud ride with atmosphere lent by rain and sleet. It has been suggested as a possible reason for the weather con- ditions as they are now, that a sea- son reversal may be in process. Pic- ture WAA notices going up in June to the effect that skating and sled- ding will be held on Wednesday and Friday and softball notices going up in December. Well, we all like a little change now and then. Basketball Stars The basketball play-offs have fin- ally started and from the games so far, it looks like another good sea- son. The only drawback this season is that this is the last issue of the News for this semester and therefore we will not be able to report on any of the games played tomorrow or next week. Many of the most im- portant games will probably be play- ed then and therefore not as much publicity will be given to the bas- ketball season this year as was given last year. Also a gripe we would like to mention concerns the scorekeeper who is actually considered a member of the team. If the person on the team is to be given WAA credit for keeping scores, it seems only logical that the score should be kept cor- rectly. In several instances last year the total individual scores did not tally with the team score, and so when any question arose as to In- dividual scores some; kind of a guess had to be made. This guessing could be eliminated if the scores were kept correctly — so how about It scorekeepers let's get on the ball! Some Apologies A few weeks ago we mentioned the sadist around the P.O. who went around putting spiders down our back. Well things an; get ling worse instead of better—seems as though these people are better athletes than we are and now their favorite pas- times are picking us up and throw- ing us on the floor—just for fun of course. We also hear along this line that this sadist's father noticed the previous little item and knew right away that it was his daughter. Well, we really didn't mean to get this dear person into trouble but if it helps to discourage the commando tactics that are resulting in our gradual physical breakdown—then hurrah! Newman, Psi Gam,BZ, Whiz Kids Conquer The basketball season started off Tuesday night as Ohi Sig defeated Wren 32-2, KD vanquished Farrell 30-5 and Phi Delt set back Moreland to the tune of 26-8. In the first quarter of the Ohi Sig game, Sylvestri scored right at the beginning and Dunlay added two more points on a long shot. Good pass-work aided Dunlay as she pushed through three more baskets. Sylvestri opened the second quar- ter with a pushup. Dunlay made a long shot and followed with a foul bringing the score 15-0 in favor of Chi Sig. Wren tightened up its defense but Dunlay finally broke through and scored. She repeated and scored three more and a foul shot. In the last quarter, Sylvestri scored twice and then Stephen scor- ed Wren's only basket. Dunlay scored one more basket and a foul shot. Sylvestri dropped in Ohi Sig's last two points as the game ended. KD's attack opened up immedi- ately as O'Grady scored. She drop- ped two more through and Slackie followed up with one as the quar- ter ended. Shoup scored in the opening sec- onds of the second quarter and Weiss retaliated for Farrell. O'- Grady scored again and then Shoup, putting KD ahead 14-2 at the half. O'Grady made two baskets, then Slackie scored one. The ball sea- sawed until Haines scored a foul shot as the quarter ended. Shoup tallied, then O'Grady and Shoup again. Weiss scored Farrell's second basket, and then KD pushed two more goals through to win 30-5. Phi Delt started out fast when Tildon scored and Seymour added three more points on a basket and a foul shot. On the next foul Tildon scored. Phi Delt set a fast pace when Seymour, Michel and Tilden scored, one after another. Tildon scored two more baskets and a foul shot. Boyn- ton scored Moreland's only basket as the half ended 18-2, Phi Delt's favor. Connors of Moreland scored the first basket of the half and Michel retaliated for Phi Delt. Tildon and Michel scored and then Boynton brought Moreland's score to 5 on a foul shot. Michael scored once more taking Phi Delt's lead to 24-5. Boyton scored Moreland's last three points on a long shot and a foul. As the whistle blew, Tildon tossed one in. The game ended Phi Delt 26, Moreland 8. Wednesday's Games BZ topped Stokes to the tune of 27-6, when Baker, Casey and Magi- (Continued on Page t>, Col, 5) <1U Snaofx Table Tourney Nears Finish Of First Round The first round of the WAA ping pong tournament neared completion this week as several more of the games were played off. As now stands, thirteen games have been completed. The winners include Ineson, who defeated Sey- mour, Hollis defeating Callahan, Dunn over Hilt, Jones defeating Diner, Standish over A. Zeilengold, Tilden over Sweeney, Sowa defeat- ing Simon, Connors winning from Iorio, Fisher over Hellman, Midgley defeating Melewicz, Fisher over Gil- ver, and Fenenboch winning from Steinbach. Weiss drew a by to en- ter the second round without meet- ing competition. Among the close games which marked the first round were those played by Dunn and Hilt. Dunn came out on top by winning the first two games although the com- petition was extremely stiff. B. J. Jones recovered after losing the first of three games to Mary Alice D.ner. The two which followed were hotly contested but Jones came through as victor. Taking easy victories were Alice Fisher, who won with no effort from Nancy Hellman, and Ray Weiss, who de- feated Judy Fenenboch, 21-5 and 21-6. The game between Fenenboch and Weiss marked the opening of the second round. Fenenboch is therefore eliminated from the com- petition. Four more rounds must be com- pleted before the ping pong cham- pion is selected. In the second round, five winners will be chosen. The third round will narrow this number to three. Two contestants will be left at the completion of the fourth round with just one more round needed to determine the tournament champion. Several games in the first round have not yet been completed. Un- less these games are played off in the near future, both contestants will be automatically eliminated.

More than 10 minutes lateness is consid- ered forfeit. Tilden Announces Classes Started A new class is beginning and ad- vanced swimming will start this Fri- day, January 11, from 3:30 to 5 o'clock and will be held every Tues- day and Friday afternoons there- after in Public Bath Number 3. Patricia Tilden, '48, captain, an- nounced that fifteen members have already signed up for the class. A sign up sheet has been placed on the WAA bulletin board for anyone in- terested. Although most of the peo- ple who have signed up want to learn to swim, others who just want to come for recreation are invited to attend these classes. It has been suggested that all who plan to at- tend wear bathing caps. WAA credit will bo given to those who come to the class ten times. RAH! RAH! RAH! THAU TEAM TEAM! Such were the sounds that at- tracted the Sport Snoop to the aepens oi Ricnardson. It wasn't the same as last year. We couldn't help out notice, so we inquired about the cuange. it would seem a new bas- Ketoan system has been initiated, rhus tne origin oi this weeK's ques- tion: "Wnat ao you think of the new oasKetbail system, and why do you tnuiK it is more efficient than last years?" (The following opinions are irom those in tne know." The sys- tem is explamed through the an- swers.; baiter, '47,! because of the shorter piayuig tune, lour minute quarters, iiioie games can be played off in one mgut. instead of last year's two ana tnree games, lour are piayed on in tne same amount of time. A team losmg tnree out oi lour games is automatically out ox the league. Tins mattes tne season less drawn out, ana a steady interest is main- tained in the games rather than in- terest in the iinais only. It is only logical that the more teams elim- inated, tne better teams are left and tne games are more exciting tnroughout. Quinn: With 325 games to be played off in 13 weeks, something had to be done. There just wasn't enough playing time that could be scheduled. It was ridiculous for a team in first place to be playing a team at the bottom near the end of the season. There just wasn't Interest In these games. With the new elimination system, there is more incentive to stay in the league, and the games build up to a climax from beginning to end. Sweeney: Sickness has already done more than its share to hold up the basketball schedule. What we want most Is to get the games off on schedule and end the season be- fore it has a chance to drag. Sat- urday is to be kept open for prac- tice, and to give those kids who want to play and who are not on a team a chance.

New Basketball Set-Up, Efficiency WAA By-Word The new system for playing oil the oasKetoail games is a gain in WAA efficiency. Wltn tne elimination of a team los- mg three out of lour games, tne league cannot drag like ft did last year. Basketball is of major interest in State College, It being the major winter sport on campus. A long, drawn out schedule over a period of years would aiscourage the intense in- terest at present. WAA must be given creait for lorsight, and tnanks lor saving basketball at state, In order to get WAA credit a player must come out ten times. What happens to the players on the disqualified teams? WAA again proves its new efficiency. Saturdays are left open tor practice only. This gives those disqualified a chance to get WAA credit. Orchids to WAA. Fencing Class To_Be Continued Celina Axelrod, '47, captain of fencing, announced that the last class for this semester will be held Saturday, January 12, at 10 o'clock, in Page Hall gym. Classes will be- gin again with the new semester. Lust Saturday, the class practiced advancing, retreating and lunging; ail oasic steps in fencing. The cor- rect position of the body and the correct use of the foil were stressed. Fencing as a recreational activity is an excellent medium for combin- ing training in grace and poise with a wonderful time. Basketball Results (Continued jrom Page 6, Col 2J ness dropped two points each through the hoop for BZ. Sittig scored two points for Stokes as the quarter ended. Casey made two pushups, then Baker and Maginis scored one apiece making the score 14-2 in fa- vor of BZ. Joslin matched Baker's two bas- kets as the half began. Baker and then Casey scored, Maginess scored four points and Casey pushed through the last bas- ket to give BZ the game 27-6. Psi Gam's team produced the high-highest scorer of the week when Lengyel scored 22 points. Their defense was tight allowing Tommy More to score only seven points. The final score was 30-7 for the South Lake team. The Whiz Kids defeated AEPhi, 8-6 in the fastest game of the week. AEPhi was ahead until the last quarter when Rlcci scored the two deciding baskets. In the last game of the evening, Newman turned back the Sayles squad, 13-4. Sayles put up a good fight but Newman's trio of forwards outpointed them. CENTRAL Barber Shop 210 Central Avenue Albany, N.

Booming Basses Drown Out Feminine Babble In Commons To think that a mere hun- dred mortals could cause such a transformation!

Basketball Season Sees KD, Phi Delt, Chi Si3 Win

— By MARY LIZ SULLIVAN —

And so begins another year . . . We have been snooping around try­ing to see if anyone has made any New Year's resolutions and surpris­ingly enough a few people have. We were talking to one person today who told us a story of the thin per­son and the plump person who go around together. The reason for this is that each of them keeps the other from doing the things they really shouldn't do anyway. To ex­plain — this is in reality a small scale "health"? program in which "thinnie" keeps "plumpie" from eat­ing more than one helping of des­sert, candy, etc. Plumpie recipro­cates by making thinnie wear her glasses (she has bad eyes because of Vitamin deficiency) eat more, take her "Be Built Up Quick The Easy Way" pills and many other things. This is really something to w a t c h -probably In eight or ten weeks thin­nie will be plump and plumpie will be thin, if so we'll let you know. As for any other resolutions, as far as we have been able to find out, most of them have been broken already. Tsk, tsk and we've only been back one week.

No Snow

Well, last year at this time, WAA was planning a sleigh-ride. Almost everyone around here knows that in order to have a sleigh-ride—that is successful at least, there must be snow. Right about now the only thing we could have is a mud ride with atmosphere lent by rain and sleet. It has been suggested as a possible reason for the weather con­ditions as they are now, that a sea­son reversal may be in process. Pic­ture WAA notices going up in June to the effect that skating and sled­ding will be held on Wednesday and Friday and softball notices going up in December. Well, we all like a little change now and then.

Basketball Stars

The basketball play-offs have fin­ally started and from the games so far, it looks like another good sea­son. The only drawback this season is that this is the last issue of the News for this semester and therefore we will not be able to report on any of the games played tomorrow or next week. Many of the most im­portant games will probably be play­ed then and therefore not as much publicity will be given to the bas­ketball season this year as was given last year. Also a gripe we would like to mention concerns the scorekeeper who is actually considered a member of the team. If the person on the team is to be given WAA credit for keeping scores, it seems only logical that the score should be kept cor­rectly. In several instances last year the total individual scores did not tally with the team score, and so when any question arose as to In­dividual scores some; kind of a guess had to be made. This guessing could be eliminated if the scores were kept correctly — so how about It scorekeepers let's get on the ball!

Some Apologies

A few weeks ago we mentioned the sadist around the P.O. who went around putting spiders down our back. Well things an; get ling worse instead of better—seems as though these people are better athletes than we are and now their favorite pas­times are picking us up and throw­ing us on the floor—just for fun of course. We also hear along this line that this sadist's father noticed the previous little item and knew right away that it was his daughter. Well, we really didn't mean to get this dear person into trouble but if it helps to discourage the commando tactics that are resulting in our gradual physical breakdown—then hurrah!

Newman, Psi Gam,BZ, Whiz Kids Conquer

T h e basketball season s ta r ted off Tuesday night as Ohi Sig defeated Wren 32-2, K D vanquished Farrel l 30-5 and Phi Delt set back Moreland to the tune of 26-8.

I n the first quarter of the Ohi Sig game, Sylvestri scored r ight a t the beginning and Dunlay added two more points on a long shot. Good pass-work aided Dunlay as she pushed through three more baskets.

Table Tourney Nears Finish Of First Round

T h e first round of the WAA ping pong tournament neared completion this week as several more of t h e games were played off.

As now stands, th i r teen games have been completed. T h e winners include Ineson, who defeated Sey­mour, Hollis defeating Callahan, Dunn over Hilt, Jones defeating Diner, S tandish over A. Zeilengold, Tilden over Sweeney, Sowa defeat­ing Simon, Connors winning from Iorio, Fisher over Hellman, Midgley defeating Melewicz, F isher over Gil-ver, and Fenenboch winning from Steinbach. Weiss drew a by to en­ter the second round without meet­ing competition.

Among the close games which marked the first round were those played by Dunn and Hilt. Dunn came out on top by winning the first two games al though the com­petition was extremely stiff. B. J. Jones recovered after losing the first of three games to Mary Alice D.ner. T h e two which followed were hotly contested but Jones came through as victor. Taking easy victories were Alice Fisher, who won with no effort from Nancy Hellman, and Ray Weiss, who de­feated Judy Fenenboch, 21-5 and 21-6.

The game between Fenenboch and Weiss marked the opening of the second round. Fenenboch is therefore eliminated from the com­petition.

Four more rounds mus t be com­pleted before the ping pong cham­pion is selected. I n t h e second round, five winners will be chosen. The third round will narrow this number to three. Two contestants will be left a t the completion of t h e fourth round with just one more round needed to determine t h e tournament champion.

Several games in the first round have not yet been completed. Un­less these games are played off in the near future, both contestants will be automatically eliminated.

Tilden Announces Classes Started

A new class is beginning and ad­vanced swimming will s ta r t this Fr i ­day, J anua ry 11, from 3:30 to 5 o'clock and will be held every Tues­day and Friday afternoons there­after in Public Bath Number 3.

Patricia Tilden, '48, captain, an ­nounced tha t fifteen members have already signed up for the class. A sign up sheet has been placed on the WAA bulletin board for anyone in­terested. Although most of the peo­ple who have signed up want to learn to swim, others who just want to come for recreation are invited to at tend these classes. I t has been suggested tha t all who plan to a t ­tend wear bathing caps. WAA credit will bo given to those who come to the class ten times.

RAH! RAH! RAH! THAU TEAM TEAM!

Such were the sounds that at­tracted the Sport Snoop to the aepens oi Ricnardson. I t wasn't the same as last year. We couldn't help out notice, so we inquired about the cuange. i t would seem a new bas-Ketoan system has been initiated, rhus tne origin oi this weeK's ques­tion: "Wnat ao you think of the new oasKetbail system, and why do you tnuiK it is more efficient than last years?" (The following opinions are irom those in tne know." The sys­tem is explamed through the an­swers.;

baiter, '47,! because of the shorter piayuig tune, lour minute quarters, iiioie games can be played off in one mgut. instead of last year's two ana tnree games, lour are piayed on in tne same amount of time. A team losmg tnree out oi lour games is automatically out ox the league. Tins mattes tne season less drawn out, ana a steady interest is main­tained in the games rather than in­terest in the iinais only. It is only logical that the more teams elim­inated, tne better teams are left and tne games are more exciting tnroughout.

Quinn: With 325 games to be played off in 13 weeks, something had to be done. There just wasn't enough playing time that could be scheduled. It was ridiculous for a team in first place to be playing a team at the bottom near the end of the season. There just wasn't Interest In these games. With the new elimination system, there is more incentive to stay in the league, and the games build up to a climax from beginning to end.

Sweeney: Sickness has already done more than its share to hold up the basketball schedule. What we want most Is to get the games off on schedule and end the season be­fore it has a chance to drag. Sat­urday is to be kept open for prac­tice, and to give those kids who want to play and who are not on a team a chance.

New Basketball Set-Up, Efficiency WAA By-Word The new system for playing

oil the oasKetoail games is a gain in WAA efficiency. Wltn tne elimination of a team los­mg three out of lour games, tne league cannot drag like ft did last year. Basketball is of major interest in State College, It being the major winter sport on campus. A long, drawn out schedule over a period of years would aiscourage the intense in­terest at present. WAA must be given creait for lorsight, and tnanks lor saving basketball at state,

In order to get WAA credit a player must come out ten times. What happens to the players on the disqualified teams? WAA again proves its new efficiency. Saturdays are left open tor practice only. This gives those disqualified a chance to get WAA credit. Orchids to WAA.

Lust Saturday, the class practiced advancing, re t rea t ing and lunging; ail oasic steps in fencing. The cor­rect position of the body and the correct use of the foil were stressed.

Juniors To Hold Annual Banquet In Jacks Tonight

Miss Agnes Futterer To Present Monologue

The Junior Class will celebrate its third year at State with a banquet tonight at 7 P.M. at Jack's Restau­rant on State Street. The Juniors will also hold a reception Tues­day night in the Lounge for stu­dents who entered this semester, according to James Conley, Presi­dent.

Miss Agnes E. Futterer, Professor of English, will present a dramatic monologue to highlight the enter­tainment for the Junior Banquet. A skit will also be presented por­traying characters from the comic strip, Dick Tracy, in a barroom at the Club 119. A take off will be given on such well known person­alities as Tess Trueheart, Dick Tracy's faithful girl-friend; Ju­nior, who always manages to ap­pear at the right moment; Itchy, who apparently has a chronic rash; Snowflake, a beautiful but unscrup­ulous damsel; Gravel Gertie, who could never win a beauty contest; B.O. Plenty, who is everything his name suggests; Vitamin Flintheart, the wayward actor suffering from illusions; and last but not least, the hero himself, Dick Tracy. Accord­ing to Miss Hilt and Woodworth, there is also a surprise element in the skit to climax the entire per­formance, Eleanor Binn is Mistress of Ceremonies,

Banquet Menu The menu for the Banquet in­

cludes the following: fruit cup, mashed potatoes, peas, relishes, roast beef or scallops, rolls, coffee, apple pie, and ice cream.

Besides Miss Futterer, other fac­ulty guests will be Dr. Matie Greene, Mr. and Mrs. Francisco Juan Cor-dona, Dr. and Mrs. Ralph Clausen, and Dr. and Mrs. Allan J. Hicks.

No outside guests will be allowed unless they are former members of the Class of '47. However, new stu­dents who have entered the class this semester are cordially invited. If tickets have not already been obtained, they may be secured from any member of the ticket commit­tee. The price of admission is $1.

Committees for the banquet in­clude the following: Arrangements, Virginia Ann Day, Janice Goodrich, and Arthur Kaufman; Entertain­ment; Betty Rose Hilt, Virginia Drivas, Julia Collier, and Frank Woodworth; Guests, Joan Alverson, James Whytock, Richard Smith; Tickets, Alice Knapp, Clyde Cook, and Harold Weber.

Booming Basses Drown Out Feminine Babble In Commons To think that a mere hun­

dred mortals could cause such a transformation!

The peaceful drone of femi­nine voices in the Commons, supplemented by only an oc­casional bass tremor, has burst into a mighty overture of mas­culine uproar. Those less for­tunate last minute researchers in the library, prodded by a 12:35 deadline, push aside the tempting thought of Joining the hilarity below.

And it isn't those new ny­lons which are attracting at­tention in the ' lower hall of Draper—ah, no I It is the shapely appendages, so liber­ally displayed by State's new Varsity potentials.

State students for the past fifteen years, Dr. Matie Green is taking a brief sabbatical leave for post­graduate work in medicine and .surgery at the Women's Hospital ln Philadelphia. Here she will perform the varied duties of chief resident, which she explained as similar to those of a liason officer between the staff and hospital patients. These include supervising admis­sion of both private and ward patients, house calls, room service, and the work of internes and resi­dents, as well as the routine of ward rounds and reports.

Dr. Sophy Hess, who was gradu­ated from the Woman's Hospital in 1945, will be the acting doctor at State until fall, when Dr. Green will return. Dr. Hess took her B. S. and M. A. degrees at the University of Chicago and completed her in-terneshlp at the Women's Medical College.

To Study At Pcnn U In addition to her work at the

Women's Hospital, Dr. Green will study at the University of Penn­sylvania, continuing her already well rounded education. She is a graduate of the University of In­diana Medical School and Syracuse University, and her interneshlp was completed at the Women's Hospital. Following her interneship, she re­mained at the Woman's Hospital for five years working with anas-thesia and X-ray. State College s n^j enlisted her services ln 1931 she has been here ever since.

Varsity Cagers Open Attack On Page Court Against Siena

- Br HABT U Z SULLIVAN

It's like music to our ears! — What? You mean you haven't seen them, you haven't heard them— we have men back- at State. Well we've been dreaming of that for years now and—lt"s finally hap­pened. With, the coming of men comes the dawn and basketball! We aren't particularly interested in the dawn, but we are very Interest­ed In basketball—especially MAA basketball. The first game that has been planned is with Siena and it's a home game. It's scheduled for next Wednesday night and since this is the thing so many people have been waiting for for so l o n g -that gym should really be packed. No matter which team wins, the game will be fast and fighting and spectators will certainly see some nice playing.

Turning out and cheering is not up to the school, It's not up to every one else, it's up to yon. Re­member how many other things around here have failed because of lack of interest. This is one thing that should not fall. Fencing Fiends

The WAA bulletin board shines again this semester, but one of the notices is apt to discourage fenc­ers. The sign that is up for fenc­ing clearly, shows what can happen to those who don't come every Sat­urday morning and therefore don't have a steady hand

One poor character's head is be­ing neatly sliced off by the Inex­perienced fencer. Here, of course, maK arise the question of who the Inexperienced players going to practice, on so that they may become experienced and thus avoid so much bloodshed. Well — what do you think Chuck Axelrod and Mary Carey are captains of fencing for— their health? Of course not. They are there for the purpose of helping you become a better fencer even though they may lose their heads over it once in a while. Horror Notice

We are going to need a bigger appropriation for the infirmary fund.

The reason: More people are be­coming infirm.

The reason: Fellows on their way to basketball practice dash through the lower halls of Draper in their basketball outfits. The girls have not had enough time to become ac­customed to this new display and an emotional upset results. (Ed 10a)

The result: Feb. Sth six girls fainted when they saw two fellows on their way to basketball practice.

The remedy: More money for the infirmary fund.

Ping-Pong Sets Near Semi-Finals

Another circuit of the WAA ping pong tournament was completed during the closing days of last semester and six victors were car­ried on to the fourth round. One more contestant was eliminated In the opening game of the fifth which is now underway,

The results of these playoffs found Fisher triumphing over Con­nor and Zellengold defeating Ine-son. Hollls was the winner in her games with Dunn and B. J. Jones was the victor over Standlsh. Tllden was eliminated by Sowa and Midge-ley lost to A. D. Fisher.

The opening tilt of the current series pitted Zellengold and Alice Fisher, and Fisher made this latest conquest, Fisher will meet the win­ner of the HollLs-Jones contest and Ray Weiss Is scheduled to play the victor in the tilt between Sowa and

' A. D. Fischer. The early elimination, by Bertha

Wakln '47 captain of ping pong, of contestants who would otherwise have delayed the completion of the tournament by postponing their games has resulted in the efficient course these contests neve run.

Hathaway Trains Z1 Returning Vets

Letter-Men W i l l Star In Wednesday Opener

State's eagerly awaited basketeers will trot out on the home court next Wednesday night taking their first opportunity of cavorting be­fore State fans as they face a strong Siena team. Under Coach Hathaway, the varsity five are rapidly shaping up into a first class crew in preparation for their curtain-raiser.

Siena's coach has the advantage of choosing from over 800 men but most of the men are new to the coach and unfamiliar with his sys­tem. On the other hand, Coach Hathaway is working with experi­enced letter-men eager to put State back into sport circles. About the Team

Gamma Kap, Chi Sig Score In First Games

BasketballTeams Set Fast Pace As Round Ends

Last Monday afternoon the open­ing games of second semester were played when Farrell topped Wren, 9-5, and Tommy Moore defeated Stokes 14-13, in two of the most exciting and close games of the season. • Tuesday night the basketball games got off to a slow start when the commuters forfeited another game; this time to Sayles Hall.

The Phi Delt-Whiz kids game ended with a Phi Delt victory 14-4. The game was slow all the way through. The playing on the part of both teams was sloppy, and there was an unusual amount of fouls. The Whiz Kids showed lack of or­ganization all the way through but individually put up a good fight. Chi-Sig-Newman

The Chi Sig-Newman tilt was the high spot of the evening. It started off at a fast pace, and maintained speed throughout.

Dunlay made a foul shot in the first play of the game and started the boll rolling into the hoop. The score piled up on both sides and the quarter ended a tie 7-7.

The rest of the game was pat­terned after the first quarter with Newman getting the edge over Chi Sig and maintaining it, Maggio was outstanding for the victorious New­man squad with a total of 17 points. Sylvestrl tallied 8 for the losing Chi Sigs. The final score was 22-15 Newman. Psi Gam Wins

KD and Psi Gam tangled with the resultant victory for Psi Gam, 13-10. It was Psi Gams ball game from the beginning with a slight KD rally ln the last quarter. Len-gyel starred for the victors with 8 points, and Shure scored 6 for the losers.

The Rares were defeated Wed­nesday night by Gamma Kap 14-10. Davidson was excellent on de­fense and on offense and scored five points. Abrams also did her bit by scoring three of the Rare's points.

Osborne showed her skill by lit­erally drilling the ball through the hoop at short distances. Osszy scored seven points against Qulnn's five and Pedisich's two, In contrast to their former games this was a fight all the way for Gamma Kap.

Tommy More, paced by Herllhy, defeated Farrell 17-2. Herlihy was the outstanding player scoring fif­teen points. Weiss, who scored Far-rell's only basket, Rowe and Haines, performed well, but could not put Farrell in the scoring column.

Sig won by forfeit when More- game will surely be a display land failed to appear for the game, lively spirit and sportsmanship.
