OTHER NUMBERS LISTED

Cornelia Oti1 SkinDer, Amelie: Earhart to Appear

Late r

~our outstanding numbers, fea­t ur ing three internationally known .artists, will make up the Glenville State Teachers College artiat s program f or 1935-36, Curti£ Baxter, director of the course, an­nounced today. Opening with the appearance of Bohumir Kryl and hi! symphony band, Wednesday, Oct. 9, there wiii be p resented Cornelia· Otis Sk inner , author and monolo­gist, No-v 9 ; Amelia Earhart, avia­trix and aut hor, Jan. 10; and the Hedgerow Players, t he f irst week in F ebruary.

For t he first time, the course will be sponsored by the Student Gov­ernment Association. With the ex­ception of t he Kryl concert, stu­dents will be admitted free to the entertainments.

lnatrumental Proa ram This year's course presents a de­

cided contrast to t hat of last year, in that the featured musical num­oer, the Kryl band, is ins;tn•m,ent<ll,"'l'! while ihe two musical last year, the Don Cossacks Vienna Choir Boys, Amelia Earhart and Cornelia Skinner will bring two distinct types of performance, a direct contrast to the lectures last year of Louis Untermeyer and Dean Cyril A. Al· lington.

Bohumir Kryl and his symphony hand, which will be presented Wed· nesday evening, Oct. 9, at 8 :15 o'clock, comprises a unqiue and world famous organization. The forty-piece band is a weB balanced group bf brass, str ing and wood­wind instruments. Its uniqueness lies in its ability to achieve sym­phonic orchestra effects. This year marks its thirty-first concert sen­son.

Worlced W ith Law W a llace Kryl, born in a Bohemian village,

payed for his passage to America by means of his violin. While he was working with General L'ew Wal­lace as (l sculptor, his ability as a cornetist was discovered by the late Joh':l Philip Sousa. Winning world fame in Sousa's band, he organized one of his own abOut thirty years ago. He has traveled more t han a million miles and has given more than 12,000 concerts. He is con­sidered a worthy successor to Levy, famed cornetist of the n ineties, as well as M yivacious conductor.

Three other soloists appear.,g with the band will be J osephi'le Kryl White, violinist; Nell Kinard, soprano; and Ruth Templeman, harpist.

Cornelia Otis Skinner, of New York, writer and monologist, is 3t present appearing in original sket­ches and solos from "The ' Vives of Henry VIII," and uThe Empress Eugenie." She studied for the stage at the ucomedie Francaise" and at the Sorbonne. She contr ibut es to "Scribner's," " Life," "Theatre J\rl Magazine," "Vogue," and " Harpers Bazaar."

GREETINGS! STUDENT~COVERNMEN'r

That the Glenville State Teachers College Student Govern.ment Ass_oCation will become a iperm&nent in­stitution on t:Jle College campus seell\S most evident. Chapel exercises lut week indicated t hat the Student Council, governing body of the association, has plan­neG objectives wbieh are sound and sensible. Tbe Student Council, Bs evinced by its action thus far, do~ not intend to inaugurate a set of silly, ..._dle&l, ehiJ9isb rules under wbieh students must .either )}ve Or(P&ck up and go Mme. The freshm&Dt rules adopt­e'd. and set in operation yesterda:9' are ~Y no means &DJ radieal depal'ture hom regular campus pl'$cticU. Having read them, we are <:onvinced that there is Bot one :~Hallman wllo caanot easily live up to tbem and learn to reapect thell\.

Xnowing the Student Council as we. do, we believe _ tbt the student body has exerc"ised good judgmeht in

its selection. To us t he council appears to be an out­standing gTOup of individuals. And rightfuJly they should be, for good government requires good lead­ership. President Lloyd Metheny is now entering upon ·his fourth year in Glenville State Teachers Col­leg~. He should be ·thoroughl'y ver sed with the needa of bia fellow students. We believe be is.

'1'\be Studen~ Govemment Anociation has under­tak(ln, as one of its first objectives, to sponsor the openinc artists' course number. That in . it self is :, worthwhile project .. :Mueh time and '\rouble will 'be ezperien eed in arranginc for this instrumental musk presentation. Wise leadersbip and many croups of active workers are needed. These, the Student Coua­cil ·has provided for.

Better atter.dance at athletic contests is needed. Organized ebeering is needed. There is ample need .f.or more sc·hool spirit. New students need to learn ·to respect their superiors on the campus. The• Student ~neil, through its freshman1 rules, .has p!'ovided !or

h needs. We predict that interesting developments ,Jng the-se lines will be J\Oted. Far be it from us to attem·pt to dic;tate to the Stu­

Council. We do suggest, however, that the Student Council take into consideration i-ts infe..ncy and act accordingly. Things for you, S\udent Coun­cil, are falling in the right djrection. We pledge you our support. So long as your actions ..are guided by corn,rnon sense, we invite you to make use of our fa­cilities. May y(lu live and grow and become that peT­maDent institution to which we a.re looking forward.

G. S. T. C. HOME-COMING

We aTa informed t hat plans &.re to be made this week f or the &.nnual Glenville State Teachers College home-coming celebration, October 19. To us that is good news.

Three weeks is not any too much time in which to call a meetinz of the alumni, appoint a ch~innan for t}e home-coming celebration and n~me committee~ necessary for an event of this nature.

Home-cQ.llling in Glenville is a tradition. Alumni alwaya look f.otward to the dayr They .vi.sit here, ex­pedinc e lways to meet old :friends, make ll&W ones and in general have a good time. w· .. ose duty is· it to provide for them? 'they must not be disa.ppointed.

Just as a suggestion, we feel that now is the tim,. for action. A goOO program can be planned in sh""'~ order, b:Jt there must be committees appointed wh> will take it upon themselves .to make the day a suc­cess.

Why not add a few new feature!t this year? That will mean more planning and h,rder work, but will it not be worth it?

Students in the College should be wiiHnc to l~nd their efforts. Local alumni probably will help if they are approached. Faculty members will assist. What more is needed! Nothjng except a called meeting to get things organized. Why 'not meet tomorrow?

0------SCHOOL SPIRIT SUPREME

There have been times when school spirit was sadly ne&"lected on the campus at Glenville. State Teachers CoJie~e. A casual ~urvey among t'he students strong­ly indicates tha t such will not be the case. this year.

There is every reason to believe that if proper steps are taken, school spirit here will take a decided upward trend. This year there are reasons warrant­iDJ a keen, active, animated student participation in

activities. as we have in the part, that stu-

apport to aetivitieo of tile CoDe,e. Thla in no _,. lmpliu ataJWiantl'iation of tlloq!!t or Mtion. It menly OUIP•ta oeiUAio coo]ieration.

A IIJ)Iel\4id OIJ>poft1UIIt:v for a weU-o..-aized aacl J'"Opgly ]llan... ezemplidcatioa of ~&Mol IIJ)hPit will present itaelf Friday at &ohrbo]l&'h Field in South Glenville, where dedication ceremonies will mark the• opening of t.lle ntt-,v .tadium. ADd with the Pioneers meeting tile Salem Collere Tieen in an an11ual grid­ireD classie, the daJ should carry double sirnificance.

We surreet that a eectio11 of the stadium be re­served and that the College cbeeriDg squad, made up of all the students, occupy thia section. Reaoundina ebeers will then be in order, iDdicatiDc to vi1iton tllat the stadium is appreciated and tllat stadenta bono baa tbe men who .represent them oa the 8eld. Jn the meantime, wo\tld it not be wise for .mdenta of t ... College to congregate somewbe!'e 011 the campue te prac.ti<:e a few yells. Perhaps the freshmen are aet familiar with. them.

NEW DORMITORY NEEDED

Welcome news is t hat which states tb4t final ap­proval has been given for a loan end erant of $110,. 000 for construction of a new dormitory at Gleaville State Teschers College under the Public Woru Ad­ministration progra.m.

A dormitory bas bun ne.eded •here for a loJtg, loJtg t ime. Thls year the need tbecomes eveD more appar­ent. There are fifty-one more stu-dents earolled tllia umeater than were r egistered the correspo~~oding sem­ester lut year. :All available dormitory space U.s been fitted :(o'" OC<U!>"ney. There are 168 student& Jivin& on the caJ;Dplls. That p1eans 286 students were forced to find rooms eJsewhe?e.

Students living in dormitories ge-t a different alant on college li!e. They form many more acquaintaneea, keep m_ <:loser touch with colleee activitiea and are subjected to !OUDd rules '01 conduct. Glen.ville State Teachers Collece, as evinced by tbe increased eDJ'Oll­ment, is a grc..wing i'nstitation. Becauee ._here are ft:fty-oDe more students thia year than last would seem to indi.e.ate that -the increased registration may be even more next year, or even next aemester. A new do:n1itol'y is one assurance tbat they can be properly take!l care of.

ANOTHER COOl) ARTISTS' COURSE

An artists' coCJne such as ~ 'leen achedult.d fo!' Glenville Stat& Teaehen College this year deserves serious ~onsideration by students, members of thll iac11lty and fpends of the sebool.

Nowltere. perhaps, not even at the large uaiveni· ties. will there be presented this year an uti.ts' eourse to i'Relude more world-famous ftgurea than wilJ appeal' her& i.D the Colle&e auditorium. We eongratulate C1;utis Baxter, English instTu~tor, upon his skill in SC!'hed\llin.g such numbers as Bo.humir Kryl and ·his forty-piece symphony band, Cornelia Otis Skinner, Amelia Earhart and the H&dgerow Theater P1arer3.

Especially de we commend Mr. Baxter for arrang­illl" to bririg these <DUVlbers to Glenville, a town o! little more 'tftaR 600 people, when ordinarily world­famous artists like those named do not condescend to appear except in the large metropolitan centent. All studen~s and faculty members should obligate tl\em­aelves to attend each number· on the College artist!' course this year.

That li~tle pep song Miss Bertha E. Olsen is teach­ing during cha:pel exereise.s shikts oa as being jus.; a.bout t."'e best " tune" we have heal'd around her& in niany a day.
