Stroudsburg l~vaders Have "The Kingdom of God" Long Record Of Wins Already Under Way

The small, but mighty Strouds­burg State Teachers quintet will arrive here tonight to engage the pride of I. C. in a do-or-die cage fest. The famous foragers from Pennsylvania bring a commend­able reputation with them. Their zone defense and fast break has added many a notable opponent to their long list of vanquished foes. Even mighty Seton Hall has succumbed to the impregnable spirit, and ravaging tactics of the Stroudsburg club.

lthacans Prepared

Coach Yavits has the Bombers well girded for the prospective battle. Last Friday night's sham contest with the Egans was con­clusive proof of the Big Blue's abil­ity to cope with the visitor's style of play. Although they were slow to start, the lthacans soon made their opponents zone look like a sieve, and their "fast break" a verse to the Lambeth Walk. In fact, the Egans became so frus­trated in their attempts to stop the onslaught that they were forced to drop the "zone" and resort to other defensive measures.

Reserves Improving W i t h characteristic sagacity,

Coach Yavits has been giving his reserves every opportunity to in­crease their knowledge, and widen their experience. As a result, the indispensable second string has shown a decided improvement. In-

For the past week the cast of "The Kingdom of God," a play by G. Martinez Sierra, has been in rehearsal. This production, which is the second production of the year to be directed by Dr. Charles J. McGaw, will be the fourth in this year's series of plays presented by the Department of Drama of Ithaca College.

In this play Sierra concerns him­self with a young girl, Gracia, who leaves her comfortable home and lavish surroundings to become a sister in the Order of St. Vincente de Paolo. The character of Sister Gracia is being portrayed by Mar­garet ltter. This part gives Miss ltter ample opportunity to show her versatility as an actress, as she must age from nineteen to seventy during the course of the play.

The play boasts of a large cast and gives equal opportunity for acting honors to all the characters, as each scene depicts a different period in the life of Sister Gracia. The first scene takes place in on Old Mens' Home, the second in a Maternity Home for delinquent girls, and the last in an Orphan's Home:

"Kingdom of God" promises to be a beautiful and enjoyable pro­duction and should prove to be good entertainment for the audi­ence. The play will be presented in the early port of March.

Large Summer Course Probable; Living Costs For Extra T~rm Low

The latest reports on the three semester program ore still some­what vague. However, a partial tally of the student questionnaires which were filled out at the time of registration reveal that 55% ore definite about returning for the third semester. The college's execu­tive board feels that,even 45% or 50% would be high enough to warrant the third semester. How­ever, this figure will probably climb because of the fact that the physical education men will, in all probability, be deferred on the grounds of occupational deferment as long as the school or the in­dividual can give some assurance of obtaining a job.

Regarding this, Mr. Hill has in­formed us of a very high employ­ment percentage, stating that he could have placed 50 men .. and 20 women immediately if he had had the graduates. The same situa­tion has existed in the music de­partment.

A few facts concerning the third semester include the following. There will be no lowering of the standards now existing in the three departments. To those at­tending school, the coming of sum­mer will not mean relaxation, but the continuance of a normal school program.

A few faculty members who hove previously been contracted for summer jobs eleswhere will leave Ithaca for the summer. In addition, one or two others may be allowed to continue their post­graduate studies, if their classes can be handled by some other member of the faculty.

Dormitory and dining hall rates will be somewhat reduced because of reduction in maintainance cost.

The work in some subjects· may be planned on a half semester basis which will allow the chang­ing of teachers at mid year so that some may have a longer voca­tion or continue their post-gradu­ate work.

New Draft Policy Gives Phy Eds Renewed f.,ease On Scholastic Life

The following is a copy of the new policy affecting Physcial Edu­:ation Students of draft age. It was sent to Mr. Lawrence Hill, head of the Physical Education Dept. by the New ,York State Headquarters of the Selective Service Board.

"In line with a recent pronounce­ment of the Bureau of Labor Sta­tistics of the Office of Production Management which stated there will be a possible shortage of high­school teachers of Physical Educa­tion for men, students in training for such positions will be given consideration for occupational de­ferment as 'necessary men,' Brig­adier General Ames T. Brown, New York State Director of Selective Service, announced today.

In a bulletin issued to boards in New York State, General Brown said:

"There are no blanket defer­ments, and each case must be con­sidered on .its individual merits. Before a student may be given con-

sideration as a man in training, he must meet the requirements of a 'necessary man" as defined, giv­ing consideration to such factors as:

"1. Length of time in which the student has been pursuing the course.

"2. The relative progress and standing in such course.

"3. The relative chances of em­ployment or placement for such activity for which he is preparing.

"This latter fa1=tor may be evi­denced by contract of employment or any reasonable assurance that the registrant will engage in that activity."

Upon receiving the above notice, Mr. Hill promptly wired the news to some fifteen students from his department who had already left for induction into the service. Just how many of this group will be able to return as a result of this new policy cannot as yet be de­termined.

ALL CAMPUS ORGANIZATIONS MUST ELECT BEFORE WEDNESDAY, MAR. 16

Because of the accelerated schedule, it has been suggested by the Student Council that elections of officers for campus or­ganizations be held before March 16. This request is made so that the new Student Council may hold elections before April 1. With this plan it will be possible to combine the '43 Council with the present one. This combined council then will be able to work together for the remainder of the year and then the new members will receive the opportunity to benefit by the older council's experience.

We know that this will meet the approval of the faculty ad­visors and hope the matter will be given serious attention in the very near future.

As an example of the art of re­cording, Wagner's Die Walkure­Ride of the Walkure, Act Ill & Lohengrin-Prelude, Act III played by the Pittsburgh Symphony Or­chestra conducted by Fritz Reiner is well worth investigating, but, as samples of Wagner's music, Reiner's concept is far less pleasing than those of other conductors. The Ride, though fast moving and well­played, does not have the sweep and majesty of other versions The Prelude to Act Ill of Lohengrin is taken at a very brisk tempo, into which a sense of superficiality has crept.

If you are an earnest collector of records, you are undoubtedly interested in recordings which might be termed "different". Among these is a mast interesting

recording of Austrian Peasant Dances arranged by Max Schone­herr, This disc, recorded in Eng­land, is jovial and old-worldly. The recording is excellent.

Recently released is an album entitled A Concert by Lily Pons and her husband Andre Kostelonetz. It includes four numbers by Miss Pons with Orchestra and four num­bers by the Orchestra alone. Lily Pons is in good voice but her enunciation in English leaves some­thing to be desired. Mr. Kostel­onetz and his orchestra play in their usual manner. His interpre­tation of Liszt's Liebestraum No. 3 is peing well received.

Harry Blantz, first trumpeter of the New York Philharmonic is fea­tured in an album of two discs called Bugle Calls of the Army.

Corner Bookstore Donates To Library

In order to help build the repu­tation of the Ithaca College Library to a higher level and to bring to the students of Ithaca College more and better books, Mr. Earle W. DeMotte, President of The Corner Bookstore, has in behalf of that firm donated the following books to the college library:

"Darkness at Noon", Arthur Koestler; "The Peloponnesian War'', Thucydides; "The Conquest of Mex­ico" and "The Conquest of Peru", Prescott; "Living", Rice; "Intelli­gence in the Modern World", John Dewey's Philosophy, Ratner; "Guide to the Empire State", American Guide Series; "Capital", Kori Marx; "The Flowering o{ New England", Van Wyck Brooks; "Of Time and the River", Thomas Wolfe; "New York City Guide", Federal Writers Project.

AtL FRESHMEN! Mass Meeting At Gym

Thursday, 8:15 P. M.

Attendance Compulsory

Dr. Rehmann has finally un­locked the secret doors and given forth the performance date of the Requiem. Saturday, March 28 is the day, and it is to be presented in Foster Hall {Ithaca High School Auditorium).

The fact that this is the Fiftieth Anniversary of the founding of Ithaca College accounts for Alumni soloists appearing on the program and Miss Margaret Daum, Mrs. Florence A. Wilcox, Messrs. Wilmer R. Moyer and Luke E. Motz will sing the solo parts. According to Dr. Rebmann, the chorus is now at a point of perfection where assist­ing soloists may be invited to sing with it. This is the result of five years' hard work on Dr. Rebmann's part.

More information will be di­vulged later in the semester, but the performance of the Requiem . with chodus, symphony orchestra, and outstanding soloists promises to be one of the highlights of the Fiftieth Anniversary Celebration.

The script and revising committees have been working hard to get a show that will celebrate the Fiftieth Anniver­sary of the College and also be a typical musical comedy Scampers.

(This is the first of two articles on the interrelation of the arts so de­signed as to give the reader. a broader outlook on the finer things of life despite the present world situation. No matter what the re­sults of the conflict are, the decision will not be a finale to civilizcition; as the nation progresses in the re­adjustment process, so will the arts go through a readjustment period and, perhaps some evidence of the past history and the influence of the arts on people throughout all time will aid in the apprehension of a new philosophy on the future.)

During the first semester, one of the World literature classes estab­lished ci common bond between music and literature in the hope that it would make the literary work more realistic in the eyes of musicians. That there is a defin­ite relationship there is common knowledge. However, one is in­clined to ask if interrelation of the arts stops with music and litera­ture. Interrelation goes much far­ther than that; it goes into paint­ing, sculpture, dancing, and still others of the fine arts. All these finer arts are related in purpose, method and even show relationship in terminology. They are the means by which the artist communicates his thoughts and feelings to us.

Larry Dunn

Once again we bring you an intimate review of the life of one of our graduating seniors-smiling, congenial Larry Dunn. Bo,i:n and reared on the flat bosom of Long Island's wave drenched shores, in a little village called Smithtown, he arrived on October 12, 1918, within one month of the cessa­tion of the first world catastrophe.

As we review the chain of in­cidents and achievements of his life-and as we watch the links slip into place, we slowly begin to realize the value and wealth of the character from which they were forged ...

In high school, Larry played four years of ·football and one year of basketball. He captained the foot­ball team one year, and made the All Western Suffolk team. In ad­dition, he was elected president of the student council, and in his sen­ior year, president of his class.

The growth of this ever increas­ing passion to champion the un­derprivileged, began with the reign of President Roosevelt. Larry, a faithful history student, noted the President's extreme measures to aid the poor, and became in­tensely interested. It wasn't lol")g before Larry became acutely aware of the existing facts. His work in the settlement houses, and his as­sociation with the Brentwood State Hospital served to uncover some startling evidence. This evidence has opened new channels of thought, and broadened the aven­ues of appreciation-this evidence has created a desire and evolved a purpose for living. And when a man has found his place in life­and the meaning of his existence has become unalterably clear-he is a man indeed ...

Larry entered college in 1938, and in his freshman year played football, managed the freshman baseball team, and made the Adelphi honorary society. In his sophomore year, he played foot­ball, managed varsity baseball, and was pledged to Phi-E-K. Dur­ing his junior year he devoted much of his time to social work at the South Side Community Center. This year he was elected to the presidency of his fraternity, a tern~ porary responsibility, which was eclipsed by the more permanent one of taking a wife.

To the casual observer, the pre­ceding paragraphs might seem quite conclusive, but to the great number of Larry's more intimate friends they are but a weak out­line. For, behind the smiling coun­tenance-behind the heavy black brows, there exists a mind that is keenly alert, and sharply sensi-

pealing of the bells die away, solemn notes of a Gregorian Chant arise, swelling into a mighty song, coming from the white-robed choir under the arcades of the tower. Here we find, architecture, music, vestments, color-all against a background of sublime silence. Yet, as one looks at Bruges and its medieval atmosphere, the imagina­tion can perceive the towering structures of our own country and age and John Alden Carpenter's composition Skyscrapers reminds you of the dynamism of this age.

Mrs. Bert R. Lyon Entertains

Mrs. Bert Rogers Lyon, president of the Delta Phi Zeta patronesses, entertained at a tea in her home on Thursday, January 22. She had as guests of honor the new patronnesses of Delta Phi Zeta, who were installed last month at the formal initiation of members. The new patronesses are Mrs. Adrian Newens, Mrs. Johann Reich, Mrs. Ralph Jones, Mis·s Bess Dan·­iels, and Mrs. Lee Smail.

The sorority members will be hostesses to the Drama freshmen girls this Sunday morning, Febru­ary 1, at 10:00 o'clock in the house. An informal breakfast party has been planned.

Delta Phi Zeta is awfully sorry to see Sylvia Glassman leave school, but we wish her the best of luck in her new surroundings.

Phi Delta Pi Gym Night Soon

Entertain Miss Waste,lain

We were happy to entertain Miss Wasterloin at our house dur­ing her stay here. It was a happy and honored evening for us.

We ore looking forward to Mrs. Margaret Clark Hall's recital with great expectations.

On Monday evening, January 19, we held Pan Pipes Hotel. Those 16 girls invited played a piece on their major instrument. We were only sorry that our house can't ac­commodate more. Janet Brown and her committee deserve bou­quets for a well planned evening of music, fun· and not to forget the refreshments (a regular dinner in itself. As good as will ever be found on any hotel menu.)

Newman Club Meeting

Girls. come one, come all, every­one's invited to our Gym night. Porticioote in basketball, badmin­ton, square or round dancing, for the oure enjoyment of it, or tumble and tao for the "slimming" you'll aet. It's 7 to 9 in the Gym, every Wednesday evening with Edna Deaen and Viola Diebold in charge, and Miss Hugger as our advisor.

The Cornell Newman Club is having another in its series of 'lOrties. This one will be a St. Valentine's Eve party .on Friday, February 13, at 8 P. M. in the %rnes Holl Library. Th~ evening will include firelight dancing, "IOmes, refreshments, and fun. C:everal Ithaca College Newman Club members have been asked to ~erve on the committees for the r:>orty. Quite a few I.

Phi Mu Alpha "Mole" Reynolds Retires

Saturday evening the Phi Mu boys invaded the Lehigh Restaur­ant and put on one of the finest farewell parties in its history. This party was in honor of "Mole" Rey­nolds and "Sultan" Tarbell. Ap­proximately twenty-fiv.e couples joined the brothers in their finai social event at Ithaca College. After a fine Italian dinner the group moved en masse to the Fra­ternity house where we held our annual mid-semester dance.

Brother Ring has lost his pin to Norma Bloomberg; congratulations are in order. Jerry is social chair­man of the fraternity and is doing a fine job this year. He reports that a plan is being mode for an­other barn dance in the near fu­ture. Probably this affair will be in honor of Ortone and Ring.

What's all the hollering for? Dick Willover has left for the

Army-but that isn't going to break up a good basketball team. This will be the first lineup change since the first game of the season.

Coach Yavits has not yet de­cided who will replace Willover, but Irv Halstead or Ted Fay seem to be the logical men for the spot. In my humble opinion Halstead should get the nod.

Bill Friis, a joyvee player hos also left school. Bill was o good ball player, and might have moved up if the army had not called him ~lsewhere.

Last week various players were tried out - but -. Practice this 'ast vveek included two practice games-one against Syracuse at Syracuse. The boys didn't look bad at all.

Tonight the Bombers take on one of the toughest opponents on the schedule-E. Stroudsburg. The mr:iin event is scheduled for 8: 15 and the preliminary at 7:00.

The Saturday afternoon league com posed of 4 teams; The Stage­hands, Tioga Terriers, I.F.T. House, and P.E.K. Ringers. In the games played last Saturday the Ringers defeated the Stagehands 51-36, and the Tioga Terriers defeated

the 1.F.T. House 32-23. The sched­ule calls for each team to play ever}' other team twice.
