By AL PIAGET

In the Little Theatre on the nights of May 14th and 15th,at S:30 p.m., it will be curtain time for all of you theatre-going "sophisticate" at Paterson State. Two intriguing playswill compose your night's entertainment . . . one unfolds aneerie battle deep within the depths of a man's soul, and theother will be the portrayal of an average American motherand her family going on their annual trip or vacation.

The first play, "The Theatre ofthe Soul," will be set in the dark,inner chamber of the human bodyamongst the heart, ribs and nerv-ous system. It will reveal the

culty member of the board of jamln Matelson. Over 100 studentstrol. I participated on this field trip.

Advertising Class ToursPaterson Evening News

Twenty students under the di-rection of Mr. Stanford Hendriek-son toured the Paterson EveningNews Building on April 8. Theadvertising class was shown someof the various steps in compilinga daily newspaper.

Among the major points of in-terest were the linotype ma-chines, preparation of illustra-tions, printing forms, the makingof matrices and the metal stereoplates. The manner in which therotary p r e s s e s continuouslyprinted, folded, and conveyed thefinished product to its destina-tion was the highlight of the trip.

Spring CotillionTo Be Held May 7

At a general assembly meetingin the Little Theater, the Fresh-man class made plans for theirmain project of the year — aspring dance. May 7 was selectedas the most suitable date, sincemost of the other Fridays con-flicted with other affairs.

A novel idea was brought upby the class secretary, Sue Nealy,in connection with the naming ofthe theme for the dance. She sug-gested having a box placed in thehall where every freshman coulddeposit notes containing an ap-propriate theme. Joan Ulrick-son's SPRING COTILLION waschosen by the publicity commit-tee as the winning title. Joandreamed up this theme during

t of her classes. Due to ob-vious reasons the name of thisclass is being withheld. Joanhails from Passaic and is a Gen-eral Elementary student.

The Freshmen hope to makethis dance one of the best of theyear; they have secured RalphLadarola's Orchestra for this oc-casion. There are eight pieces inhis band and the members haveplayed for various high schools,thus are quite capable of playing'soft' as weli as 'beating out' oneof the livelier tunes.

Tickets for the SPRING CO-TILLION are $1.00 a couple and$.75 stag. The following peoplecomprise the ticket committee:Joan Christie, chairman; Janet

Conventions are held to provide an opportunity for thoseof similar interests to get together and exchange ideas andinformation. Of course, various social activities are scheduledto help make new acquaintances and provide some variationfrom the usual meetings, but the acid test of a good con-

vention is whether or not its participants act on and therebjbenefit from its program.

When attending conventions and meetings you findstudents from all over the country attempting to answerquestions concerning their respective publications, clubs, andstudent organizations. By means of panel discussions, guestspeakers, judging of publications, etc. and friendly conver-sations many questions are answered. New ideas are cultiv-ated and with them new problems arise and the ey~ ~*progress is renswed.

While speaking to a fellow student recently, he ex-pressed'the wish that each school represented at conventionsand meetings would act on one idea that might benefit theircollege. If this could be accomplished it would mean everyonewould benefit. Imagine the results if we took advantage ofone idea from each convention attended. With this in mindlet us begin our march forward by beginning now! We willimprove our publication through what we have learned andare looking forward to seeing other groups also take thisstep ahead.

Raise Your Rating!The evaluating committee was impressed with Paterson

State's hospitality, professional attitudes, and the cooperationof staff and students. We are all proud of the high rating ourcollege received but our job now is to keep raising our ownstandards.

Our new library, gymnasium, and addition to the cafe-teria will contribute greatly to our campus and its activities;but the "life" of a college is the student body and their at-titudes and participation in campus affairs.

Such little things as putting empty coke bottles wherethey belong, attending club meetings regularly and takingan active part, tel! how you feel toward your college morethan anything you might say. The benefits you receive fromyour college career are determined by how much you putinto these four years.

Good Luck To The Garden ClubStudents with a "green thumb" and those who are in-

terested in gardening and beautifying our campus can nowjoin the Garden Club under the direction of Dr. White.

One of the first signs of Spring, the bulbs sprouting inthe circle in front of the cafeteria, is proof of the beautythat can be attained through further projects of this kind.We have the land, all that is needed is student interest totransform our campus into a garden spot.

Congratulations to those who made "project bulbs" asuccess.

By SHIRLEY FKESTON

In the last issue of the Beacon, part of the report fromthe Interv-sitation Committee of the American Associationof Colleges for Teacher Education was published. The fol-lowing is a continuation of the report, which was submittedto the college authorities after the committee had made athree-day visit to Paterson State last fall.

Student Personnel Services

Quoting from the committee'sreport on the college's studentpersonnel services, the followingwas said: "In general, the com-mittee found personnel servicesat Paterson State Teachers Col-lege efficient and logically or-ganized. Most needs of studentswere more than adequately cov-ered in the program, and therewas noted a praiseworthy ten-dency to evaluate existing prac-tices with an eye to the future.

"Particularly worthy of favor-able comment are the orientationprogram, student health service,and student personnel records.These last are comprehensive andcarefully kept."

They noted that "It would appear expedient for the personneloffice to begin to exercise somegovernance over those studentswho have chosen to take roomswith nearby householders ratherthan commute. It might be wiseto look about for a householderwho could house several of thesestudents and thus make a begin-ning in providing experience ingroup living for at least a smallnumber of students." They con-tinued that "perhaps the person-nel office could take the lead inbuilding a student cooperativewith such a group and such ahouseholder."

Preparation Of Faculty

The committee spoke highly ofthe caliber of our college's fac-ulty when they noted that it was"a faculty which gives the im>pression of being wholeheartedlyinterested in their teaching andof genuinely liking their students.There seems io be an excellentspirit of professional service inthe preparation of the teachers."

In genera], the committee wasof the impression that there wasa favorable faculty-student rela-tionship existing at PatersonState.

Special commendation came infor the development of "clinical"service courses for students, andalso for the possession of ade-quate equipment for audiovisualaids in instruction.

Bid You Know ThatTo date, 128 students have been

accepted as Freshman startingin September. Of these 23 areenrolled in the Junior High cur-riculum, 68 in the General Ele-mentary, and 37 in the Kinder-garten-Primary curriculum.

On April 30, 1954 Paterson Statewill observe its annual ArborDay. Dr. Baker is in charge ofthe program.

Ninety-seven communities arerepresented on'our campus; thestudent body numbers 528. Abreakdown of this shows that theFreshman class with 151 studentsrepresents 54 communities; theSophomore class with 124 stu-dents represents 46 communities;the Junior class with 109 studentsrepresents 43 communities; andthe Senior class with 144 studentsrepresents 53 communities.

Ac-companying me on the trip werethree other teachers from Wood-stock School: Bob Stoddard, fel-low 1-3 and business manager onthe tour; Bob Kauffman, an ex-cellent pianist (he gave severalconcerts along the way); and JimSchaeffer, newcomer to Wood-stock's staff from Iowa.

Indian trains are different fromthose at home. There are air con-ditioned compartments, equippedwith everything including thekWhen sink; Second Class com/partmcnts, with cushioned seatsand a,placc to sleep; IntermediateClass cars, with cushioned seats,but no guaranteed place to sleep;«nd Third Class cars, with harduncushioned benches and no as-surance of a place to sit or tosleep.

; We travelled third, and found itan "interesting" means of travel,to phrase it lightly. In northernIndia we found the compartments§o crowded that we could hardlyfind room in the car to sit. Itwas not uncommon to find fiftypeople crowded into a compart-ment built for twenty. On oneoccasion the doorway was socrowded that Bob Stoddard crawl-ed in a window to look the placeover. He found that he could notfind space to even place his feet.Jim Sohaeifer and Bob Stoddardoccasionally slept on the floor,Kauffman and I doubled up on aluggage rack.

Even with ihese crowded con-ditions we found the I n d i a npeople courteous and kind. Oftenthey crowded uncomfortably to-gether in order to make roomfor us to sit.

In South India the trains werenot as crowded. As we travelledby day, we noticed that a beggarwould ~:,Ler the cars at each stop,sing a song, take up a collection,and leave at the next stop. Thereanother would enter. This becamecommonplace. On one occasion,two beggars entered, one at eachend of the car. Much to our sur-prise, one began to bark loudlylike a dog. He soon has every-one's attention and the car shookwith laughter. Suddenly, fromthe beggar at the other end camethe "baaing" of a sheep. A drunkpassenger began singing in Hindi.Soon the three were circling thecar (picture it if you can) sing-ing, barking, and baaing like asheep!

The trip gave me a new love(or a greater love) for India andits people. From the tropicalTravaneore to the snowy Hima-layas the people were kind, help-ful, and friendly, and the sceneryinteresting, often breath-taking.I am glad to be abie to sharepart of it with you.

Many, many thanks for yourChristmas greetings and prayers.I have just been going over thecards a second time, enjoyingmemories that accompany eachcard.

My very best wishes to you all.

In Christian fellowship,GUY LOTT.

Wednesday, April 14, J.954

To an outsider, the basketball campaign which thePioneers have just concluded might seem to be a pretty dis-asterous one. The 5 and 12 record would seem to justify thistheory as it is pretty dismal in the light of won and lostrecords.

What the records failed to show was the effect of ob-stacle piled upon obstacle which the squad had to try toovercome. Foremost is the small number of varsity potentialsin the school as is the case in other colleges with similarenrollments. Poor practice facilities and a constantly chang-ing home court site did their bit to curb the team.

It would have been tough for the Staters to producea better record without the help of at least one big man.Much of the rebounding was handled by 6' 1" Bob Matthew,team captain, who competed with bigger men in every game,yet, always gave a good account of himself. Bob also becamethe second player in Paterson State history to top thethousand mark in points.

After three years osi the fringe of varsity competitionJerry Del Corso, the big little man of the squad, played astarting position and was largely important for what successthe team had. Little Bob Matthews racked up a lot of pointseven though he was sidelined for several games with ankletrouble. It would be extremely good fortune for the Pioneersif Bob decided to return next season.

Capable Roger Clarke really helped out with his ballhandling and defensive work. "Rog" also connected on longsets and poetic layups to help the point production depart-ment. Another senior, Bill Kline, came into his own as avarsity regular. Over the last five games Billy averagedclose to 20 points per.

This was the varsity basketball team and it seems thatall five have played their last game for Paterson. It's goingto take quite a rebuilding job for next year to have a success-ful season*. There ave several players from this year's squadwho should help out the varsity next year with their addedexperience.

High on the list of returnees is Jim Meisterich who sawa good deal of varsity service this season. Jimmy couldconceivably be the mainstay of the team as he has sufficientheight and a basketfull of effective shots. Among his favor-ites are included a long set shot, a right handed jump, anda driving layup.

Adam Richberg is another player returning to varsitycompetition next year. Playmaking is Adam's specialty ashe does not do mucii scoring. He will be a junior next yearam! this mee^is he has two seasons left with the squad.

EaW Mege is another hustling sophomore who has twoseasons left on, the varsity squad and should fit in with thePioneer attack nicely. Earl is deadly around the basket andoccasionally drops in long sets.

There are three players over the 6' mark graduating tothe varsity next year in the persons of Ted Stephens, JoeWaldman and Doug Hartman. Among the other juniorvarsity players are Frank Nanier, AI Reisbaum, John Lensi,Ron Seiders, Bill Clancy, and possibly Tom Wesling*.

In other departments, this was the second season forcoach Dan Jankelunas who was assisted by scorer MartyWalsh, timers Sal Alairno, Carl Salamensky, and managersLes Wade and Pete Esser. The loyal fans who went to thegames really cheered and shouted for the Pioneers and theyseemed to enjoy themselves.

Another bright spot was the cheerleading squad in theirnew uniforms. Lee Caporuso was the captain of the groupwhich included Val Van A.nmers, r.JTarlene De Rosa, FloSahagian, Millie Rusnack, Reggie Gwozdecka, Barbara Borl,Elaine Pantel, Jane Dardia, and Elaine Miller.

Returning to the team itself we recall that two victoriescame at the expense of considerably stronger teams, TrentonState and Newark Rutgers. Those were both thrilling gamesin which the fans were in a frenzy most of the way. Statel t t t th d f l I d i f
