GUYER FAVORS COMMITTEE'S

SUGGESTIONS

"Courant" Editor

Lays Depression To World War

Does Object However To Substitu- Maurice Sherman Scores Govern- tion of Intro Mural For Inter-

Collegiate Competition

Interviewed concerning his opinion of the recommendations made for the betterment of athletic conditions at Connecticut State College by the Student Organization committee. Director of Physical Education Roy J. Guyer stated here today that with the exception of the proposed adoption of an extensive intramural program in substitution for inter-collegiate competition in minor sports, he is not opposed to the carrying out of the suggestions made by the committee in their report last Friday.

Student Representation Stand Director Guyer stated that he is

willing to have a student committee sit in at meetings of the athletic department when the administration of the athletic funds are discussed and voted upon and when the athletic program of the institution is planned. Continuing he said that the books of the department are open for inspection at any time and that a plan for the rendering of financial aid to students injured while playing for the college, was practically complete. He expressed his interest in the welfare of the students and his desire for them to play the game hard and get a lot of fun out of sports. Relating something of the history of student affiliations with the athletic department in the past, Director Guyer said that he should be willing to have a student committee meet with his department committee when matters pertaining to the budget and policy are discussed, and in the past there was a student and alumni committee which met on such occasions. "But," said Mr. Guyer, "first the alumni dropped out, feeling that those things discussed could be handled by those at the college, and then the students lost interest."

mental Waste and Nations Tam- pering of World Trade

Mr. Maurice I. Sherman, Editor of the Hartford Courant, pointed out in no uncertain terms, at convocation yesterday, that the present world-depression came as a result of the Great War. That the price in life, property, and poor spirit engendered were appalling, and entirely sufficient to bring about the present situation of the world, were very clearly shown. Editor Sherman declared the Treaty of Versailles more of a war treaty than one of peace.

In the opinion of Mr. Sherman, the I cures for the depression lie in the destruction of tariff barriers, free trade, in the reduction of war debts

I if not their entire cancellation, and in the reduction of governmental waste and expenditure. The last item was the butt of much sarcastic com- ment by Mr. Sherman as he showed how millions of dollars of public money was being poured into such fooiish projects as experiments with terrapins and fleas.

Scoring the present governmental policy of arbitrary price control, Mr. Sherman cited examples of the fail- ure of the same policy in England, China, Brazil, and Japan. "I have an idea we cannot increase prices except through the cannels or trade themselves. The old law of supply

Phi Mu Delta Supplants Formal

With Poverty Hop Connecticut Collegians, Under Direc-

tion of Art DuBrow, To Provide Syncopation

Phi Mu Delta will hold its annual spring dance April 12 at the Willi- | mantic Country Club. The Connecticut Collegians, with a ten piece orches-

1 tra, will furnish music for five hours ! of dancing, from nine until two.

An innovation introduced by the fraternity this year is that the dance is to be a Poverty Hop instead of the forma! dance usually given during the spring season. Only costumes sug- gestive of poverty and financial difficulty are to be worn. As an incen- tive to the dancers to come dressed as specified, it has been decided to impose a fine of fifty cents on any person who comes dressed up. Hall decorations have been arranged to harmonize with the general scheme

! of the dance. The dance as planned j might almost be called a masquerade.

Student Senate Advocates Complete Reorganization

Of Student Government Baldwin in Letter to "Campus"' Refers To Inefficiency of Uncoor-

Plans for reorganization of the student government system of the college are underway and a definite proposal will be submitted to the Student Senate at its regular meeting on Monday.

A special committee appointed by Carl M. Wis-inger, president of the Student Senate, has been working to form a new constitution

for the proposed association. This

"PLAYERS" TO PRESENT "BIMBO, THE PIRATE"

ON THE AIR TONIGHT

Booth Tarkington's Play To Be 67th Presentation of Radio Dramatics

Group

"Bimbo, The Pirate," Booth Tark- ington's dramatic chronicle of a church-going buccaneer and his sea- going mate, will be presented by the WCAC Student Players through the College radio station tonight at 7:15. Mr. Tarkington's play is a philan- thropic contribution to amateur dramatics, as he permits its use without the usual royalty payment.

The action of the piece centers around one Deuteronomy Bimbo, a pious pirate captain who allows no loose women or talk on his vessel and interprets the captured merchant's "Blast your vitals" as out-an-


'34 Year Book Comes Off Press

unior Prom Week J' William Hall and Alva Loiselle Put

Finishing Touches To Nutmeg; Supply Limited

The '34 "Nutmeg" went to the press Monday and unless unforseen circumstances intervene, the book will be ready May 12.

William Hall, editor-in-chief, and Alva Loiselle, business manager, have put long hours and strenuous effort into making the class book a success. both from a financial and literary point of view. It is their aim to put out a better book than those edited in previous years, which they realize is a difficult task, but they are both confident of realizing that aim. This year book, due to the addition of several new features, will be larger than any Nutmeg ever published previous- ly-

Owing to the limited supply of the Nutmeg this year, those wishing extra copies are requested to hand in their applications to the Business Man- ager as soon as possible.

committee, consisting of Murlyn Dick- erman and Norman D. Baldwin, has drawn its charter from results of a questionnaire sent out to many of the leading colleges and universities of the country, whose student government associations have long been recognized as the leaders in co-educational government.

The committee has received replies from Michigan L'niversity, Minnesota, Texas, Washington, Maine. Ohio, and other colleges. The plan to be submitted to the Senate will be drawn from charters used in these colleges.

A New System Proposed In brief, the proposed system is

reputed to make for a centralized student government and a more effective control. Norman D. Baldwin, a member of the Senate Committee, in an in- terview with the Campus stated that the college has long been in need of a change in student government as the situation at present is beyond the realization of the normal student. Mr. Baldwin's idea is enclosed in the following article submitted by him:

"It has been stated many times by hopeful individuals that the Connecti- cut State College was entering upon a new era. It is our opinion that such is the case, present conditions not- withstanding, and that duty demands that we utilize this interim when everyone is, of necessity, "marking time" to organize themselves to meet future needs as a larger and more fully developed College.

Teammates Honor Carl Wissinger As Coach

Plaque Presented by J. Standish

Carl M. Wissinger, coach of Con- necticut's swimming teams for the past four years, was presented with a plaque Wednesday night by his swimming cohorts of '32-'33. The presentation on behalf of the team was made by Jim Standish before the as- semblage.

The plaque six inches wide and eight inches long of solid mahogany. On the upper part is a medallion bearing the figure of a poised swim- mer with a wreathe encircling the whole. At the bottom is the inscrip- tion; "Coach 1929-1933'". A plate further down is engraved with the legend, "Carl M. Wissinger, *33.

Conn. State College Presented by

Teammates of '32-'33" At Wissinger's entry into the col-

lege in 1929, a swimming team had not even been thought of. Nothing daunted, however, he set to work and succeeded in establishing a team, ar- ranging fourteen meets with Y. M. C. A.'s throughout the state. The cost of the entire project was kept to fifty dollars.

The next year, a definite training program was undertaken and this time meets were scheduled with the pick of the New England colleges with such schools as Brown, B. U., Wesleyan, Rider, Springfield, included. The work was continued in a similar manner throughout the sea- sons of '31 and '32. While the teams have not won a majority of the meets, the enrollment of the school and the youth of the sport at this institution must be taken into consideration. However, Connecticut teams have al- ways showed up well and have proven formidable enough to be held In respect by stronger opponents.


Trackmen Given Stiff Training Schedule

Improved Track Being Built

At a joint meeting of the varsity and freshman track squads held in the trophy room of the armory last Monday evening, Coach Anderson gave a brief outling of the training rules. He stated that this year's schedule called for all men to be In the best physical condition possible, as this season will be the most stren- ous that Conn, tracksters have had in a long while. The coaching staff will consist of Mr. Anderson as head coach and in charge of field and weight events. Mr. Will in charge of dash and hurdle events, assisted by Mr. Young, and Lou Hallock and Len Hubbard in charge of the distance and middle distance. These coaches are well qualified to give instructions and advice; Mr. Will and


Frosh Baseball Squad Rounding Into Form

Windham Played in Practice Game

A DEFENSE For a great many years, college authorities and the public coupled

with the press, have severely "hopped on" the college athlete on the basis of negligent scholarship and inability in fields other than athletic. Re- cently, many schools and publications have come to the aid of the harried collegian with numerous tables and statistics showing that our athletes are not so dumb after all. The shining light for the past three years, of a combination of brains and brawn has been Harvard's Barry Wood, scholar and athlete extraordinary. It is our desire to show that the athlete from the small college, possessing no national reputation, can also be successful in the outer world. In consequence of which, it behooves us to set forth some data which has been curried from the files of our Director of Instruc- tion:

Dan Chubbuck, the one-time "Aggie" one-man track team, is now a dignified instructor at the Choate Preparatory school.

'■Billie" Darrow, Dan's running mate on the chalked court for three years now holds down the position of assistant coach at Norwich Free Academy.

Gene Lanioureux and Leo Duffy, teammates on the 1930 quintet are both promising young medicoes in their last year at Tufts Medical School.

Red O'Neill, the grand old man of "Aggie" athletics is practicing medicine in Jewett City.

Yale Matzkin, erstwhile lanky center, has just graduated from Boston University Law School, passed the bar, and has branched out as a Success- ful young attorney in Waterbury.

The two "Jims" of football fame—Williams and Moore, are both re- spected teachers at the Plainfield High School.

These are just a few of the Connecticut athletes who have made good in the cruel world. Many to come will and have done the same despite dire newspaper prophesies to the contrary.

Spring Football Game Pleases Coach Dole

250 Witness Muddy Struggle

Two Connecticut State football teams fought it out on Gardner Dow Memorial Field last Saturday with the Orange finally gaining a close 14 to 16 victory over the White, bring- ing to a close the first spring footfall practice at the college since the coaching regime was Instituted ten years ago.

The game was witnessed by more than 250 students and faculty and was full of the usual thrills in spite of the fact that no goal posts were erect- ed and that the unusual wetness of the field handicapped the passing and punting attacks.

The April Fool's Day spirit was caught by the players as evidenced by an Orange player tackling one of his teammates who had just intercepted a forward pass.

Coach Dole seemed very much pleased with the results of the practice session and has hopes of a winning ball club here next fall.

With the coming of warm weather, the frosh baseball candidates Have turned themselves over to coach Heldman for inspection. There are about thirty men out fighting for berths on the squad, many of whom are former high school stars.

At first base Fitch and Kupidlow- ski are fighting it out. Fitch, however, has come here with an enviable reputation as a heavy hitter.

Atherton and Ballon are working for second: Atherton, the newcomer, looks very much like a "natural", and Wells seems to be favored for shortstop.

Butkiewicz, Jaeckle and Mason are holding third. Butkiewicz too has come to us after playing a lot of ball in high school and with inde- pendent teams. Mason and Jaeckle however, are putting up a good fight.

For the fielding positions are Kaiser, Arcldiocono, Groher, Brown and Willoughby. Just who will finally hold these positions is hard to say at this early date.

The battery is being taken care of by Petrie, Nettleton, and Pinsky behind the bat and Sullivan, Meecham, Lewis, Hamblem and Goodrich in the box. Petrie is by far the most exper- ienced of the catchers but Pinsky and Nettleton are working hard for a show.

The squad will go to Willimantic today for a warm up game with Windham High before officially open- ing the season against Williston Aca- demy, April 22, at Williston.

The Inter-fraternity volleyball tour- nament ends its schedule this week with the winners in each league playing in the finals for the cup Monday night, April 9.

In the American League, the "Shakes" and the non fraternity teams are battling it out for first place while in the National League the "X" boys and the Faculty are tied for first honors.

During the past week, Theta Sigma Chi won its first game from Alpha Gamma Rho and drew a bye in the second round. The team work of the "Shakes" seems to have them headed for the cup. Non-Frat easily defeated Alpha Phi while "Tep" overcome Pi Alpha Pi and Alpha Gamma Rho. Michelson starred for the "Tep" boys, running up eight points in one game.

In the National League, Phi Mu Delta lost to "Shakes" and to Fac- ulty. The latter game was the best played of the season. The series went to three games with Faculty winning the first, 15-13; losing the second, 15-13; and winning the third, 15-13. Heldman and Kinsey starred for the profs while Sladkow and Mea- dows played well for Phi Mu. In their two games "X" bowled over Phi Mu and Sigma Phi Gamma with little difficulty. Phi Ep won both of its games, vanquishing the lowly Sigma Phi's and the down-trodden Alpha Phi's. DuBrow and Weiner starred for the Phi Eps.

Ball Tossers Practice Garnet Finer Points

Talent Shifted In Experiment

Due to the lack of material for some positions. Coach Dole has decided to distribute what talent there is in as many places as possible. Hal Cummings. stellar third baseman of last year has been shifted to an outfield berth. "Red" Fagan, who lost year capably held down second base, is temporarily back at that post although he was counted upon to do the catching. John Skubliskas. utility infielder of last year has also been shifted to the outer gardens. Red Warren former shortstop, has been tried at third, short and the outfield.

At the present time, it looks as though the infield will be composed

PROPOSED CENTRALIZED STUDENT GOVERNMENT

On -Monday the Student Senate will take up the matter of a proposed Student Government Association, a plan that has been worked up by a committee of the Senate from the results of a questionnaire sent out to many of the leading colleges of the country. At present, as pointed out by a member of the Senate and the committee, the college has many governing organizations which have become so obsolete that they are no longer recognized as organizations of the college.

The idea of a centralized control of student activities is funda- mentally sound and worth the earnest consideration of every member of the present Student Senate. Many of the colleges of the land are using such a system in a very effective and successful manner. It cannot be denied that the system of government at this college at present is a system that has neither rhyme nor reason. Some manner of reorganization should be had .and it is the work of the Student Senate to effect such a reorganization.

During the past semester there has been much criticism of the Student Senate and its officers. For the most part the criti- cisms have been just but the real blame for the laxity of the present Senate rests not only upon the members of the Senate but upon the members of the student body, the electors. The Student Senate in former years was composed of the real leaders of the college, men and women who had the initiative and brains to form a good governmental organization. At present the Student Senate, and almost every other organization on the Hill, is composed of a group of deadheads who are willing, and eager, to sit back and let their work be done for them by a few members who have not succumbed to the prevailing spring fever. Not only are they inefficient as members but they are willing to protest any moves made as being of "railroading" tactics. Many of the problems that have been of importance during the year have gone unnoticed

b\ the Senate. The students are no longer in control of the Senate. A position on the Senate has passed from a position of honest endeavor to one of an honorary capacity.

On Monday the Senate will have before it a measure that is of vital interest to all. The committee has done its work with the authorization of the Senate, whether the individual members know it or not. There have been so many absences from the meetings that the majority of the members are totally unaware of the fact that such a reorganization was under consideration. Flence, the accusation of "railroading*'. Were these delinquent members to attend some of the meetings and actually become in- terested and representative as they are supposed to be, there would be a great deal less friction on the Senate. The proposal of reorganization as submitted by the committee will in no manner be the final word. It will need corrections and modifications. It will have to be moulded to meet the conditions of the college. The members of the Senate are supposed to be informed as to the conditions on the campus and are supposed to be of sufficient in- telligence to make reforms to meet the conditions. That is their job. That is why they were elected to the post as representatives. That is what they have forgotten to do for one whole semester.

There has been considerable friction among the members of Senate because of personal reasons. That is extremely unfortu- nate for the good of the college. Men who are suppose to be leaders of the college should be big enough to overlook personal likes and dislikes for the advancement of the college. On Monday the Senate should consider the recommendations of the committee in an unbiased manner as something that is being worked out to advance the college in keeping with the changes that have already been made. If the recommendations are of merit, and many of them are, they should be introduced to Connecticut. The Student Senate is by no means a political body; the representatives are by no means politicans, and the procedure should by no means be of a political nature. The Senate is the representative body of the college and it should be solely concerned with the good of the college. Let us have a Senate of which we can be proud, not one that draws criticism at every move. Let us return to former stan- dards in this one measure at least.

SIXTY-SEVEN YEARS OF CONSTRUCTIVE TOIL

Yesterday, April 6, President Emeritus Charles Lewis Beach celebrated his sixty-seventh birthday on the site of the college that has long been dear to him and for which he labored untiringly for over thirty years. Born in Whitewater, Wisconsin, in 1866, l'resi- dent limeritus Beach came to Connecticut in 1896 as an instructor in dairy husbandry after having been graduated from the University of Wisconsin with B. A: and B. S. degrees.

On September 15, 1908, he became president of the college and remained in that position faithfully serving the interests of the college and the State until his retirement in 1929. During his regime the college expanded from a small and comparatively un- known institution to a college of international fame in the field of agriculture. During his period as president the college passed through the most trying periods of its existence and President Beach led the institution through the trials to the position it holds today.

Quiet, unassuming and understanding, he placed Connecticut in an enviable position. The history of the college reveals the former president as a man who took over the reins of manage- ment and immediately became the master. Tn 1929, after many years of toil, he retired to a life of quiet, remaining in the shadows of the building that bears his name. Sixty-seven years the Con- necticut Agricultural College — the Connecticut State College— thirty-three years of service to the State. We honor one who has worked so well in our interests.

In the mail: Dear George: I realize that I am no

prima donna but, believe me, I'm there when it comes to singing in the bathtub.

Signed, Cleo.

Yeah, but you're not in it with us.

• * * A certain graduate student on the

Hill, who uses the moniker Julie, claims to be quite a dancer and, in fact, a former member of the well- known stage. Rumor has it that the genial and smooth manager of the band has signed said Julie up to strut her stuff before the student mass in the near future. Be that as it may, I think that Julie will give the boys a treat as Ned Wayburn is reputed to give an especially good correspon- dence course in Terpsichorean art.

* * * *

Millsie must be on the make. There is no other plausible explanation for it. Have you noticed her? Hair slick ed back, lips crimson with bright- hued lipstick, checks of a healthy rouge color, slim mascara-lined eye- brows, et al. I am working day and night to get the low-down on her and find the boy friend but Millsie is a pretty secretive sort. Too darn bad because she was quite a gal. Evident- ly she will desert the ranks of Agri- culture and turn to forestry and tramp the woods now that the spring fever and whatnot has hit her too.

* * * * Well, well, there was quite a furor

created over the issue of last week. Seems as how some conniving so-and- so mixed up the record on the question of the greatest K. A. And now the Campus board is assured of everything from downright dishonesty to weak-kneed journalism. Some people must talk, you know.

• • * Beebe Daniels went and did it

again. This time he stole Pinsky's big hunk of baloney and Pinsky has been decidedly upset ever since. Better watch out Beebe, that is a bad thing to do. Hell hath no fury like a man who has lost his evening meal.

• • » Last week I made reference to a

certain co-ed who was pulling a fast one on the guy in the home town and the results have been astonishing. In- asmuch as there were no names men- tioned in the article, I have received no less than fourteen (14) letters begging me not to expose the little love affair. And that is not at all mentioning the personal plea from another co-ed who ranted about busting up a happy home and sending the kid- dies to the orphanage. All's I got to say is that plenty o f these dames

have a heavy conscience. Vacation ought to be something for the home- town cowboys to remember if these 14 feel at all repentant.

• • • My correspondent at the Castle in-

forms me that many of the co-eds are wearing the frat pins on their under- wear. I was quite puzzled at first but then concluded that this was due to the fact that certain of the Greek Letter clubs on the Hill forbid the brothers to give the pins to the gal friend. Hence the new use for the undies. In talking over the situation with an erstwhile member of the student body, I also find that several of the gals have taken to putting the pins on their pajamas. I need help— that is too deep for me.

• • * Mary had a little lamb, And then the doctor fainted.

• • • Spring! Beautiful spring! No long-

er must the loving couples shudder as the cruel wind bites into their thick hides. Spring! Oh, glorious season! (Quick Jeeves, the beer—they'll never swallow this line) Warm, loving, caressing winds. Balmy evenings under the historic (?) pines. Fragrant odor of the dried-up Duck Pond. Warm, dry, smelly earth. Tra-la-tra-la. Spring and those immortal lines of the famous Agguy: A co-ed! My king- dom for a co-ed!

• • • After that I feel much better, thank

you. No, Jeeves, that will be all today, I feel somewhat yeasty. I am suddenly reminded of the latest bit of gossip about Leo Hunt and that steamboat license. Well, Mr. White, what sayest thou?

• * • It's a funny thing, all week long I've

been trying to decide which of the ardent lovers was in line for the grand award and now a new affair has started which far surpasses all the previous puppy loves. Not long ago one of the athletic males of the campus went and did it and now here comes another. Nate Lipman and the little McCarthy gal, no less. Nate has been a hermit for a long time and the girl friend has been a subject for speculation. Imagine my consterna- tion in seeing them in a husky clinch. Step up Nate and bring home the Mug.

And now what are you up to Louis? A little psychological experiment? You should know that Willimantic spiritualist meeting is no place for you and Doc Cheney to be. By the way, that Annie he was trying to pull out of the ether sure wanted to stay there.

GUYER FAVORS COM- MITTEE'S SUGGESTIONS

(Continued From Page One)

May Make Setup Change Through interviews with both Dr.

Charles C. McCracken, president of the college, and Assistant Professor of Physics Wendell H. Kinsey, acting chairman of the faculty committee on athletics appointed by Dr. McCrack- en, it was learned that a study of the athletic situation at Connecticut State College has been under way since the committees appointment last summer.

To make for a more efficient system of handling the financial problems of the athletic department, the president's committee, according to Mr. Kinsey, may recommend the adoption of a system used in more than three-fourths of other land- grant and private colleges of about the same size as Connecticut State, namely, that the college take over the administration of the athletic department's finances and make the payment of the athletic fee payable to the college. At the present time the $7.50 fee is paid each semester to a student athletic association which at present has no officers and is not functioning.

Under such a system the athletic department would come under the college budget and the amount of money which the department would receive outside of gate receipts would be definitely known.

Students Would Still Be Heard Under the present system, pay-

ment of the athletic fee is not com- pulsory and the amount of money which will be available is not known definitely from semester to semester. Should the president's committee recommend the handling of the finances of the department by the college, it might also recommend that a certain fee be paid by the students to the college as a part of the regular college fee and in return they would receive season tickets to all athletic contests held at the college.

The fact was emphasized by Mr. Kinsey, that should such a system go through, the students would still be welcome to make suggestions for the good of athletics at the college and to have a student committee attend athletic deparment meetings when matters of interest to them should arise.

Medical Situation Included among the matters under

study by the president's committee is the problem concerning medical aid to students injured while playing for the college and although coming to a decision very recently it was not until today that their action was revealed. The Board of Trustees of the college have voted that the college shall assume no financial obligation should a student be injured while playing in an athletic contest for the college. But this ruling does not affect the Athletic Association to which every student who pays the $7.50 athletic fee is automatically a member.

As a result Dr. McCracken's faculty athletic committee has gone on record as favoring a certain portion of the athletic fee aggregate being set aside to pay for any medical attention given an injured athlete who Is injured to such an extent that it is beyond the power of the collet;., physician to handle. To handle such cases the president's committee recommends that disbursement of the fund be left in the hands of a spec-

ial committee composed of Dr. Ralph Gilman, college physician, Director of Athletics Roy J. Guyer, two students, and any others whom the athletic director deems advisable to have on the committee.

"PLAYERS" TO PRESENT "BIMBO, THE PIRATE"

ON THE AIR TONIGHT (Continued From Page One)

out profanity. Good old Deuteronomy also takes occasion to scold severely the merchant for his inferior goods which he would foist on an unsus- pecting public, and to berate soundly those unprincipled members of the freebooters profession who utilize methods which bring discredit to their trade.

That Mr. Tarkington's character- ization of a pirate company is not wholly fanciful is attested by the following excerpt from "The Pirates of the New England Coast," by G. F. Dow and J. H. Edmonds: "The 'Articles' (rules for the government of George Lowther's pirate ship) were sworn to ... on a Bible . . . We have an Article which we are sworn to, which is, not to force any married Man to serve under us . . . No gam- ing for money at cards or dice was allowed under any circumstances. No women were allowed on board . . When a vessel was captured, if a woman was found on board a sentin- el was placed over her immediately .. . First, You are to keep such good Orders among your said Brigan- teen's Company that Swearing, Pro- phaness be avoided, or duly punished, and that God be duly worshiped."

The pirate captain is played by Mr. Russell D. Brooks, of New Haven; the pirate mate, by Mr. John Dinnan of Meriden; the protagonist by Mr. Alfred Fritz, of Torrington, and the heroine he protagonizes by Miss Vivian McBriarty, of New Britain. Mr. Felix Dichter of Stamford plays the part of the captured merchant who spends most of his time dragging shrill cries of "Wretch, wretch!" from the bottom of his indignity. Those who have seen rehearsals assure us that Mr. Brooks, in spite of his 101% pounds, is a swashbuck- ling and intimidating figure. Mr. Den- nis Gero will act as student announc- er.

TRACKMEN GIVEN STIFF TRAINING SCHEDULE

Mr. Young both were well known in track circles during their collegiate careers, and Hallock and Hubbard have been outstanding in Conn, track for the last three years.

Mr. Will, who was present at the meeting, was called upon to speak, and he told the men that with such an unusually large and well-balanced squad that he hoped for a most successful season. Captain Len Hubbard then outlined the schedule for the season for both teams and told them what to expect in the way of com- petion from each college. Most of the meets are to be at home this year, partly because the athletic department feels that a few home meets will arouse enough interest in track to place it on the level with baseball and other major sports where it be- longs, and because an exceptionally fine track is now being built. Many of the old records should be broken this year with such an improved track and fine array of runners.

"WHEN YOU AND I WERE YOUNG M-AGGIE" — OR 28 YEARS AGO

Oct., Nov. 1905—Especially inter- esting at a time so soon after "Agri- culture" was dropped from the name of our institution is an observation made by an '05 student in a Hicks Prize oration on "The Modern Agri- cultural College." He said, "Slowly but surely the larger institutions as Yale, Harvard, Cornell. Penn., etc., are beginning to realize that they must administer to the needs of the men who are considering scientific agronomy as a profession." On the next page we find in a fashion note that hoop skirts were coming back into style.

The position of women on the campus of 28 years ago, when goats used to be pastured on the athletic field, would be quite unbearable to the modern co-ed. The word "co-ed" had not yet been originated, and female students were primly referred to as "young ladies." College was supposed to prepare them for house-keeping or the teaching of home economics. Their dress covered everything but their hands and faces, and smoking by the women was not only not toler- ated, but was actually unheard of. In fact, even the men students were permitted to smoke only in their rooms. A significant fact is that the girls' dormitory was then called the "Cottage," while now it is the "Castle." The great similarity between the young ladies of 1905 and the co-eds of 1933 is that they both were (and are) very proficient in that age old pastime of turning a young man's fancy to thoughts of love.

The '05 football team looked forward eagerly to games with Spring- field Training School, Wesleyan. Am- herst (cancelled on account of cas- ualties received in the Wesleyan game), New Britain High School, Nor-

wich Free Academy, and Springfield High School, the first two of which were lost, while the last three were won. And, according to Alumni Sec- retary Thwing '02, who played for Connecticut in '99, '00, and '01 (he had a head of beautiful blond, curly hair then), the football of today is mere hide-and-go-seek compared to the game played by those old timers. In those days before the birth of the forward pass, the game was mostly line plunges with little deception used, the better team being the one with greater poundage and brawn. The rules then were very lax, and almost anything was permitted except holding; there were few penalties, and a player was never thrown out of the game—he was carried out. And plenty were carried out, too. In '01 valiant group of lads left here for Kingston to beat Rhody, which they found quite difficult to do, since the referee was also the R. I. coach. Three times a Connecticut man got away for a touchdown, and each time he was called back on the alleged count of holding. At this point Cap- tain Thwing stepped in and threaten- ed to paste the official in the eye, or words to that effect, after which all went well and the Aggie boys carried the day. The traditional antagonism between Connecticut and Rhode Island may have started right there on that football field.

According to the records, three of the men who played football that year became veterinarians, two farm- ers, one a professor, one a mechanic, one an automobile dealer, one an ice dealer, one an engineer, one a con- tractor, two manufacturers, and one died, which shows just what can be expected of football players in future life—or somethln'.

CHRISTIAN CONFERENCE HERE THIS WEEK-END

(Continued From Page One) tend from other colleges and universities in New England.

Welcome By McCracken Registration began at the Com-

munity House Friday afternoon. At 7 p. m. a dinner will be held in the Col- lege Dining Hall where Dean of Men Sumner A. Dole will be the toastmas- ter and Dr. Charles Chester McCrack- en, president of the college, will give an address of welcome. The first session of the conference will be open- ed at 8:15 p. m. with a devotional service led by Gilford H. Towle, '32, Massachusetts State College, now at Hartford Seminary. Dr. James Low- ell Hypes, head of the Sociology De- partment at Connecticut State Col- lege, and sociologist on the Original Fact Finding Commission to India for the Laymen's Inquiry Commission will talk on "Some Problems Facing Missions in India."

Big Day Saturday Saturday's program includes a

Chapel service under Fred Thompson, Turkey mission teacher; an address by Rev. E. L. Nolting. dean of Ameri- can College, Madura, India, and group discussions led by Rev. George Ackerly, pastor of Mansfield Congre- gational Church and former missionary in India, Mr. Thompson, Rev. Dr. A. T. Hensey, African missionary and now professor at the Kennedy School of Missions, and Russell L. Dergin, who has been 14 years in Japan.

Saturday evening an informal sing will be held in the Community House followed by a devotional service led by Rev. J. Garland Waggoner, pastor of the Storrs Church, and a forum.

Sunday Morning Service Following breakfast from S to 9

a. m. in the College Dining Hall on Sunday, a devotional service led by- Reginald Avery and a summary talk by Carl Herron on "The Way Ahead" will be given. Mr. Avery is a member of the class of 1933 at Wesleyan L'niversity and president of the Con- necticut Valley Student Mission Union in 1932. Mr. Herron is assistant pastor of Storrs Church and head of Wesleyan Christian Association at Wesleyan University.

The regular Sunday morning service at 10:45 a. m. in the Storrs Com- munity Church will be under the direction of the conference with the morning sermon by Professor Ken- neth Latourette on the subject, "What We Mean To Do About It!" Dr. Latourette is professor of Missions and Oriental History at Yale Univer- sity, formerly on the faculty of Yale in China.

campus. Each is supposed to have its distinct sphere of influence yet the fact is that their sundry constitutions (where any exist) show numberless duplications and reduplications of in- vested authority.

Which Body Should Reign "A further and rather ironical com-

plication is added by the question of which organization shall have pre- cedent over the other. In theory, the Administration of the College settled this question permanently when, in recognizing the Student Senate they gave it "jurisdiction over all Student activities," with the sole exception of the Inter-Collegiate Athletics. In fact, the very existence of some three of these organizations was not generally known to the Senate, and the exact jurisdiction of all these organizations is kept as a close secret between about three gifted and fortunate individuals in the College.

Immediate Action Called For "How can real efficiency or, in fact,

any semblance of efficiency be possible with the existence of such un- necessary duplication and the con- comittant friction through misunder- standing? With the hope for exten- sion of size and scope of the school, how can we prognosticate anything but a tragic state of ridiculousness for Student Government of the future?

"Unquestionably, there must be some reform, some gathering together of the indolent conglomeration, some centralization of authority to which the student body can look as respon- sible. Now is the time to put our house in order."

Excess of Governing Bodies "The general charges of inefficiency

and inaccessability are well known about the campus and may well be passed with mere mention. Specifi- cally, however, a thorough search in this field has revealed many startling and rather irritating facts. For ex- ample, there are eleven duly recognized, yet absolutely uncoordinated Student Governing Bodies, on the

BALL TOSSERS PRACTICE GAME'S FINER POINTS

(Continued From Page Two) of "Scoop" Pickett, at first, the fiery "Red" Fagan at second, hard-hitting Mel Campbell at short and '"Mede" Bondi at third. Either George St. Marie or "Weary" Lipman will be behind the plate. Connie Donahue, Skuhliskas, and Hal Cummings look to be the favorites for the out-field posts.

The pitchers, among whose number there are, Calamari, Flynn, Ray Fields and Brute Dickinson, have not yet displayed their best form and it is not known how they will develop.

Coach Dole intends to have this year's team play smart ball if nothing else. He has been drilling them in such intricacies as the squeeze play, getting the runner at second on an attempted sacrifice, and having the players shift on every pitch. An innovation this year will be that the second baseman and shortstop will signal every pitch to the outfielders, so that they can "play the pitch".

TEAMMATES HONOR CARL WISSINGER AS COACH

(Con'inued From Page Two) The main fact Is, however, that

swimming as a minor sport at this college has been built up solely through the efforts of Wissinger and still more credit is due him since he has carried his coaching duties for the past four years without one cent of recompense and just for the love of the sport.

It is to be hoped that his successor will prove capable of carrying out the work so well begun but it will be a difficult task to unearth a man so intimate with his mates and yet commanding so much of their respect as a coach.

ILLUSION: A "strong man" once gave public performances in which he stopped a 9 lb. cannon ball shot from a fully charged cannon. The audience gasped when the gun flashed and the human Gibraltar stepped forward out of the smoke uninjured, with the 9 lb. shot in his hands.

EXPLANATION: The trick lay in the way an assistant prepared the cannon for the performance. He used the regulation amount of powder and wadding, but placed the greater part of the charge of powder ahead of the shot. The cannon ball was propelled only by the small charge behind it which was just sufficient to lob the 9 lb. ball over to the strong man.
