Miss Ries realistically admits: that there are problems in work such as hers. The well-proportion­ed brunet te often finds tha t her older pupils a re at t racted to her and some even refuse to go home." These students a re retarded in mind only," she jokingly reminded.

On one occasion the enduring

The serious-minded senior got her job through the summer camp where she worked last year , and intends to work this summer teach­ing the physically handicapped children.

After graduat ion in June the zealous Physical Education major looks forward to attending gradu­ate school in Wisconsin or Ohio for her Master 's degree.

She would then like to teach classes for normal and handicap­ped children.

In accordance with the plan, the New York trio, com­posed of Professors Otto Deri and Fritz Jahoda (Music) and Mr. Rachmael Weinstock of the Manhattan School of Music, made a two week con­cert tour covering six colleges in five states.

"We gave one formal recital, heard students play for us, and gave criticism and advice," Prof. Jahoda , the group's pianist , ex­plained. " I t was an informal workshop ar rangement ."

But although the three men went to teach, they stayed to learn many saddening facts about the a rea ' s problems.

Two of the colleges visited a re in tegrated schools; one, in Mobile, Alabama, has been in tegrated for the pas t six years . "Yet this is an academic, and not social in tegra­t ion," Prof. Jahoda emphasized He pointed o u t / t h e school's band as an example.

Musical Trio Southern Migrants

When the college was a segre-gated, all-white institution, the band played a t the Mardi Gras, dances, and other social functions. "Now tha t the college, and so the band, is integrated, it has can­celled all public appearances," Prof. Jahoda stated. " I t is as though they a r e ashamed to ap­pear in public now," he observed.

Yet in spite of the apparent lack of progress he had seen, Prof. Jahoda has remained optimistic. "You have to understand the people," he maintained. "With southern public vsentinient as it is , and signs all over the cities read­ing 'Unite aga ins t Integration, ' it is extremely * difficult for white people to show courage in the face of such opposition," he declared.

Cultural Integrat ion

"When y^u see so many signs of segregation in their cit ies; on the buses, a t waterfountains, in waiting rooms, it is wonderful (and here the music professor's richly-accented voice rose) to find tha t a t a concert, the same stu­dent's who would be otherwise so­cially conscious a r e all s i t t ing next to each other—all listening."

As if the proverbial land of mint-julep and cotton hadn ' t enough tackl ing its social prob­lems, the New York Trio discover­ed another setback, this one musi­cal !n na ture . " I n the whole s ta te

of Mississippi, there is not one professional 'cellist." bemoaned Prof. Jahoda.

And Mississippi s tands as a tin­type for the whole of the south, as Prof. Deri, who is himself a 'cellist, can confirm. The scarcity problem actually includes all stringed instruments . Prof. Deri explains the s tate of affairs ao being a "vicious cycle where 'cell­ists won't come because there are no students for them, and students; are non-existent because of the non-existent teachers. I t ' s a very difficult problem," he concluded.

Now tha t the two professors are back north, they face the daily problems presented by their stu­dents here a t the College, who were kept up to date in their work by other members of the Music department .

While both professors agreed on the riskiness of generalizations, they could agree tha t the southern students seemed shy and reluctant to ask questions compared to stu­dents a t the College. "Down south, we had to 'warm them u p ; here, i t 's hard to stop them," they add­ed smilingly.

Advise And Consent While Student Council is congratulating itself for its sup­

posed victory in obtaining its demands for cafeteria im­provements, we would suggest that perhaps the laugh is on them. Council is living under the illusion that it participated freely in the recent cafeteria decision making. It fails to realize that it, along with the Student-Faculty Cafeteria Committee, can take no concrete action; it may only advise or recommend. Council does not realize the full satisfactions which come only through genuine sharing of responsibility and of decision making, a condition which is non-existent at the College. For this reason, the concessions which they have been granted are negligible.

SC has been led to believe that it participated in the de­termination of cafeteria policy; but SC's, if not thinking, were determined by the faculty and administration.

At the present time, there is faculty and administrative control over student responsibility, leading to lack of op­portunity for students to carve out and implement answers to actual problems. It is a manifestation of the same old story that Student Government and Student-Faculty Com­mittees must be given life by being given authority.

The solution of the problem in this area lies in changing the status of SFCC and SC from bodies which can only advise to one is which can implement thkir recommendations, There are many concrete proposals which a group of this nature could put into effect. Feasible suggestions for cafe­teria improvement have included piping in music, putting it'. coat racks, and obtaining possible government subsidies to lower food prices. When SC and SFCC can do this, then we will be able to extend kudos.

(Continued From Page 1) * think that people who are so sen­timental about the poor should advocate tuition.

"We should not have to be fighting after 114 years ttf keep tuition out of the colleges, Mr. Feingold said. We should be fight­ing to expand higher education by subsidizing qualified students who cannot afford to continue their education because their income is needed at home.

"Non-matriculated students at the College now pay twelve dol­lars and fifty cents a credit. What do you think they will have to pay if matriculated students have to pay what will be the equivalent of ten dollars a credit? These students are mainly Negro and Puerto Rican and the probable fee of twenty dollars a credit would shut the door on a College educa­tion forever."

Mr. Feingold advocated reform of New York state's tax system and increased state aid to pay the bill for mounting education costs.

"'Tuition is not the answer," he said as the two hour debate drew to a close.

"I would not be teaching today if it weren't for the free city schools—but that might be an ar­gument for tuition!" Mr. Feingold concluded.

"A GUIDE FOR THE DATELESS"

With the cost of (luting rising higher and higher it is no wonder that so many of us men are turning to discus throwing. Natur­ally, we would prefer nuzzling warm coeds to flinging cold disci, but who's got that kind of money? Prices being what they are, the average man today has a simple choice: dating or eating.

Unless the average man happens to be Pinster Sigafoos. Finster came to college with the normal ambition of any

average'man: he wanted to find the prettiest coed on campus and make her his. He looked long and carefully, and at last he found her—a tall job named Kretchma Inskip, with hair like beaten gold.

He asked her for a date. She accepted. He appeared at her sorority house that night, smiling, eager, and carrying a bouquet of modestly priced flowers.

"Now then," said Kretchma, tossing the sleazy flora to a pledge, "where are we going tonight?"

Finster was a man short on cash, but long on ideas. He had prepared an attractive plan for this evening. "How would you like to go out to the Ag campus and see the milking machine?'? he asked.

"Ick," she replied. "Well, what woidd you like to do?" he asked. "Come," said she, "to a funny little place I know just outside

of town." And away they went.

^ \mm?t$^fflf&c!m?i The place was Millionaires Roost, a simple country inn made

of solid ivory. I t was filled with beautiful ladies in backless gowns, handsome men in dickeys. Original Rembrandts adorned the walls. Marlboro trays adorned the cigarette girls. Chained to each table was a gypsy violinist.

Finster and Kretcbma were seated. "I" said Kretchma to the waiter, "will start with shrimps remoulade. Then I will have lobster and capon in maderia sauce with asparagus spears. For dessert I will have melon stuffed with money."

'And you, Sir?" said the waiter to Finster. "Just bring me a pack of Marlboros," replied Finster, "for

if ever a man needed to settle back and enjoy the mild benefi­cence of choice tobacco and easy-drawing filtration, it is the shattered hulk you see before you now."

So, smoking the best of all possible cigarettes, Finster watched Kretchma ingest her meal and calculated that every time her fetehing young Adam's apple rose and fell, he was out another 97?. Then he took her home.

It was while sajnng goodnight that Finster got hi? brilliant idea. "Listen!" lie cried excitedly. "I just had a wonderful notion. Next time we go out, let's go Duteh treat!"

By way of reply, Kretchma slashed him across the face with her housemother and stormed into the house.

•Wtill, the heck with her," said Finster to himself. "She is just a gold digger and I am well rid of her. I am sure there are many girls just as beautiful as Kretchma who will understand the justice of my position. For after all, girls get as much money from home as men, so what could be more fair than sharing expenses on a date?"

With good heart and high hopes. Finster began a search for a rirl who would appreciate the equity of Dutch treat, and you will be pleased to hear that he soon found one—Man- Alice Hematoma, a lovely three-legged girl with sideburns.

In a year whe/i a whopping one-third of the tradit ionally Demo­cratic student body a t the College came out for Nixon-Lodge, the College's political professors may have moved to the left of their stu­dents.

Rifle Team t t Host S t John's m Results oi

IIZES IN P. LORILLARD lOKTEST ON DISPLAY IN iOOKSTORE. DEPOSIT N T R I E S T H E R E .

The College's rifle'team will have more at stake than just an ordinary win or loss when it meets the St. John's team tonight at Lewisohn's Rifle Range in what must rank as THE meet of the year in shooting circles.

"There's no doubt that this will be the most important match of the year for us," Sergeant Bernard Kelley said Tuesday. "We're both unde-^ feated, we've both beaten Army, and, well... it's an im­portant one, all right."

The Beaver nimrods, who have blazed to 15 straight wins this year, including a run of 13 straight in the Metropolitan In­tercollegiate Rifle League, feel this may finally be the year that the usually more-than-unbeatable Red-, men will yield.

The Redmen have not lost in more than two years, having rolled to 29 straight victories and two league titles over that time.

Even more painful to the

Beavers is the fact that St. John's has handed them their only two de­feats over that same span.

But Sergeant Kelley feels this may be the time for all erf St. John's good things to come to an end and for a real nice thing to happen to his men like grabbing the league champienship and pos­sibly the national title.

St. John's has its usual potent outfit ready to step in for tonight's engagement.

For one, it has Bill Ryan, the MIRL's leading shooter with an average score of 289.7 per meet.

For another, it has Dave We»-

't^s^ who is no slouch with th* rifle in his hand either, as attest­ed to by his 286 average.

For a few' more, the Redmen have enough rifle-scholarship bear­ers to put the Beavers t o a real test.''

It should be clear that St. John's is serious about the rifle sport and will not be fooling around tonight.

But the Lavender nimrods are in no ihood for comedy either, that is, unless they pull out with a win.

The Lavendermen have not had to strain too hard so far in post­ing their 15 wins, except on one occasion-the great win over Army

The Lavendermen were dream* ing high-pie-in-the-sky at that point, but descended somewhat the following week when the Redmen went one better, or, rather, 13 befe~ ter, by also posting a victory over the cadets, and by a 14-point mar­gin, 1436-1422.

The Beaver nimrods have been working very hard in recent prac­tices to get their eyes really tunedf up, and even got a fairly good workout last Friday when they de­molished St. Peters and Hofstra, two lack-lustre teams, to say the most.

Don Nirahs On Firing Line

It's going to be up to five men tonight-the five who have paced the Beavers all season.

An outstanding duo all year has been Don Nunns and Bernie Re-nois, both of whom have notched 288 averages so far.

Nunns, a steady senior, and Re- • nois, the team captain and also a senior* have enjoyed their best campaigns in their last year of competition.

This combo will receive its usual fine backing from John Hirth, who has been something of a sophomore sensation, and veterans Tom Pi-cunko and Jim McCusker.

Hirth owns the third highest average on the club in this, only his first year of. actual competi­tion. - .

Picunko and McCusker are an­other couple of seniors who have filled important cogs in the Beaver machine.

The importance of tonight's en­counter, which starts at 6 IjM, can­not be questioned by the forces-that-be whose job it is to.^iame a national cbampion some time ia March.

The Army shooters, who'walked off with the number 1 ranking the last two years, are obviously out of it this time, after losses'to both the Beavers and the Redmen.

The Redmen nimrods took the second spot in last year's rankings, and would certainly have a real claim to the national t t t t e i r t h e f win tonight.

Cagers to fate Adelphi Tomorrow In Final League Encounter of Year

By PAUL ASEN ' The performance of the College's basketball team this season has been- as dependable as a sponge-rubber ice pick. . .

But even the most skeptical onlooker would have to admit that, after their impres-sive win over Rider last Sat-^ urday, the Beavers figure to topple injury-ridden Adelphi tomorrow night at the Win-gate Gym, in their last league game of the season.

The Panthers are ensnared in eighth place in the Tri-State League standings with a 2-5 league mark, and things have gone from had to worse for Coach George Faherty.

The giant blow came two weeks ago for Adelphi when high-scorer P a n Leibowitz sustained an acute 'ankle injury and was forced to re­tire for the remainder of the sea­son. v Leibowitz had been runner-up in the Tri-State scoring statistics be­fore his injury with a 21.5 points-per-game average and was the club's leading rebounder.

Several bright spots still re­main, however, to spur the Pan­thers. One is found in the back-court which shows two double-fig­ure scbrers, Ed Cahill and Joe Woltering.

In addition to his playmaking ability, the 5-10 Cahill is a deadly

The College's two track teams both sped to victory in tjie firs& annual Municipal Indoor Championship meet at Queens College's gym Wednesday.

Coach Francisco Castro's varsi-^ t y ; men used their de'piih to ad­vantage by rolling up 6 0 ^ points to finish well in front of runner-u p Queens, which finished with 45 points.

Al Paullaly's frosh charges had it just a bit tougher, but managed to pull out the win with 61 points to Queens' 54.

The varsity men captured four first places, including one tie, and had no man placing worse than third in any of the day's ten events.

Paul Lamprinos, who runs cross country in the fall, found the two-mile run no problem, and checked in with a victorious 10:42.2 clock­ing.

Vin Hanzich registered a win in the shot put with a heave of 44 feet, 2 inches, and the Beaver mile-relayers were home in 3:44.2.

that the Beavers came through with the meet's best showing.

Charley Bond tied Vem Alwood Of Queens for first place with a clocking of 33.5 seconds. Beavers John Buechler and Ira Rudick finished right behind in third and fourth places.

Coach Castro w as very much en­couraged by the over-all showing of the team. He found potential strength for the re?t of the season in sophomores Bill Casey, Bob Jackman. and Bond.

Casey was third in the 600-yarder and fourth over the 1000-yard haul. Jackraan sped to third place i* tfc* 60-y*rd sprint.

seventeen rebounds this season. Coach Faherty's charges use the

fast break whenever possible, but their limited height and speed gen­erally force them to utilize-"set­up" plays.

The Beavers, who are now 4-4 in league play are hoping to finish with no worse than a tie for fourth place.

Coach Dave Polansky, by using mathematical tactics (five men taken two at a time), seems to have found an effective backcourt combination in 5-8 junior Mike Winston and 6-0 sophomore Jerry Greenberg. Greenberg came off the bench against Rider and scored fourteen points with some strong outside marksmanship-

The erratic Shelly Bender, who exploded out of a slump to score twenty-five points against Rider* is expected to be in top form for the final league contest of his ca­reer. -

Changing Times By LARRY BORTSTEIN

As <rf February 19, less than a week ago, jt was ten years sii Nat Holman was hit with the news that his basketball team had su boys who were receiving attractive cash handouts for not doing that was in their power to win games.

In pretty short language, it was February 19, 1951, a Thuysd when it was discovered that Beaver stars like Ed Warner, Ed Rom Al Roth, and Floyd Lane were involved in the scandals which destroj big-time basketball at the College.

What more fitting way could there have been to forget al "Black Thursday" than last Saturday's encounter with Rider's fiv

First of all, if you had mentioned Rider around here ten years you could have meant only Jack, who coaches our swimmers, last Saturday, the eve of "Scandal Day," Rider was the name of foe to be reckoned with — a gang which was trying to steal wl basketball glory still existed at the College — namely, a chance finish in third place in the Tri-State League.

Things had admittedly changed in the decade since the ColU began a "de-emphasi«ed" athletic program. But the crowd m\ gathered a t Wingate Gym last Saturday night touldn't have cai less. It wasn't Madison Square Garden, and the Beaver aggregati which took the floor didn't look like a team that could rip Kentuc by 39 points or beat Bradley, as the old team had done. But crowds have learned to grow used to that.

The Rider team was no Bradley but, just to show how thin really do twist around, Rider was the favorite in this one. A Bea\ loss would bring about no investigation, as Beaver losses once h done. A loss would go down as just another in a long.chain.

But the Beavers fooled everybody. Only, not right away. Th played the first half Eke they couldn't wait to lose. When they manag to work the ball into position for a shot, the result was a lot wasted motion, as only 7 of 36 shots found the mark, a shooting c which could only be termed shoddy a t best.

The most amazing development of such foolishness was seen the scoreboard, which showed the Beavers trailing by only 29-26 half time. 'But then it was time for- Shelly Bender to start-polling. Ni Shelly, who jammed in 16 points after intermission to bring Beavers back to a 68-59 Win, never Was and never will be abasketb player of the calibre of say, Ed Roman, but you couldn't have swapp Shelly for Roman even-up, judging from the crowd reaction to show Shelly put on in the second half.

Above all things, i t was a time to forgive and- forget and, wt I bet Nat Holman wouldVe enjoyed it. Yes, you know something, wfrukTve enjoyed i t a lot.

Polansky. The Beaver mentor tu­tored him as a (freshman, but nu­merous injuries had prevented Wilkov from coming to the fore until recently. '

I t must be remembered, how­ever, that the Panthers own vic­tories oarer Hunter and Yeshiva, two teams indelibly marked in the Beaver loss column.
