CROUP OF ALUMNI SELECTS VACATION
FOR DINNER DATE State college graduates who are
engaged in educational supervision and administration in New York state will conduct their annual meeting during each yearly holiday convention of the Associated Academic Principals at Syracuse. This procedure was decided upon at a dinner attended by fifty-five men at the Hotel Onondaga, Syracuse, during the vacation period.
Edwin Van Kleeck, '27, former editor in chief of the NKWS and present superintendent of the schools of Walden, was chosen toastmaster for next year's meeting. A secretary-treasurer was also chosen.
Dr. Arthur K. Beik and Dr. Milton G. Nelson, professors of education, were among the speakers at the dinner this year. President A. R. Brubacher, who was scheduled to speak, was unable to appear. The principal address was delivered by Dr. George M. Wiley, assistant state commissioner for secondary education.
Dr. Wiley pointed out the commanding position of State college in the field of preparation of men for educational administi ition. He also remarked in laudatory terms of the practice teaching facilities of the college, calling them "the envy of educators everywhere."
Dr. Beik expressed the faculty's desire to aid alumni after their graduation.
Dr. Nelson pointed out the possibilities for cooperation among graduates engaged in administrative work.
The roll call showed that graduates were present to represent all classes from l(X)4 to 1931. Among the members of the present senior class who attended were: Lawrence C. New-comb, F.dward Osborn, Russell W. Ludlum, C. Walter Driscoll, Arthur Jones, and Horace B. Myers, winner of the scholarship given by the principals.

Midnight Songsters Serenade Sororities As Co-eds Await Arrival of Santa Claus
'Twas the night before Chris tmas vacation, but all was not quiet at the sorori ty houses as the co-eds awaited the arrival of Santa Claus.
As the hour of midnight approached a group of State college men stole quietly up to the Eta Phi sorori ty house and sang "Silent Night ' and "Lit t le Town of Bethlehem." As the choristers were leaving, singing "Good Night Ladies" a burs t of applause from the balcony greeted them.
T h e next sorority to be serenaded was Kappa Delta. Visits were made to Phi Delta, Alpha Rho, Beta Zeta, Chi Sigma Theta , Gamma Phi Sigma, Psi Gamma and Delta Omega.
Some of the girls thought that the men must be hungry and cold.
Coffee, cake, candy and fruit rewarded them for their efforts at singing.
As the sun was coming up over Troy, fourteen hoarse and weary songsters came straggling into the College House for their breakfast. The only remarks heard at the table were "Oh! W h a t a night," but from the looks on the faces of the midnight singers while in their classes came the impression of " W h a t a day!"
