A Charter Denied f O R THE fourth time, the Labor Youth League's applica-"•• tion for a charter has been rejected by the SFCSA.

We believe that this action was justified and proper. OF supports the right of any student group to be

chartered on the campus. With this right, however, goes responsibility to the students. One of the things which we

f e d an organization must do is to clarify both its purpose and its associations. The Students have a right to know the full background of any student organization. In the judgment of this newspaper, this was not done. When it is attended to by LYL. a charter will be forthcoming.

A s a sample of the evidence against LYL: Apparently the statement of purposes in the LYL document follows closely a pamphlet called "For A New Youth Organization Dedicated to education in the Spirit of Socialism" by Leon Wofsey. chairman of the National Organizing Conference for a Labor Youth League. Among other statements made was <>ne which read. "Because of the very nature of our organ­ization, we will develop the warmest fraternal relations with the Communist Party which is the leading party of the American working class." Representatives of the League stated that although the majority of their membership agreed with this view, they would not include it in their charter for fear of alienating groups which might work with them.

SFCSA concluded that in their opinion "there does exist a d o s e association of the Labor Youth League with the Communist party . . . " and the charter was denied.

Granted that this is only an opinion of the committee, nevertheless they are not required to prove a legal case. It is a case of their considered judgment having linked LYL with certain off-campus groups, and therefore their 9-0 vote was against granting the charter.

asked somewhat sarcastically (it seemed to me> to be shown what exists that had escaped your notice. It is hoped that this let­ter will satisfy part of your quest.

House Plan does not take the stand that some improvement in the field of orientation and guid­ance is not needed, nor do we consider ourselves the only or­ganization on the campus. We do feel however, that our share in adapting freshmen to campus life is extremely important and are sorry to see that you overlooked it. For the benefit of yourselves, the staff of OP. and your read­ers. I should like to point out the following facts:

1. Before each freshman comes to the College he receives a per­sonal letter from House Plan wel­coming him tc the College and to House Plan. During the Tours he stops in House Plan, is served lunch, and an attempt is made to make him part of the College.

2. Each term roughly, one-half

of the entering freshmen become members of House Plan.

3. Small friendship groups are formed, consisting of about twen­ty m e m b e r s . By stimulating friendship and a feeling of be­longing to something more con­crete than the huge student body itself, the freshman is made a part of campus life. This pro­gram is carried out with the help of a group of upper-classmen, who are supervised by a profes­sional staff (members of the De­partment of Student Life assign­ed to House Plan).

4. The advisors are in addition big-brothers when it comes to helping freshmen with problems involving both curricular and extra-curricular activities.

The OPium Den By Paul Kirschner

\ Class Praised W E OFTEN hear cries "inexperience" and

Two weeks ago on Broadway I was suddenly struck stone deaf by a twenty thousand decibel rendition of "Bonaparte's Retreat." The song is­sued from a sound-truck, and to all inquiries as to the reason, the grim hatchet-man at the wheel replierf- "f'npeUitteri," a word embracing his entire vocabulary. Two blocks further on a greasy galoot commandeered an enormous music box blaring "Whan, Bam. Alaraiaai . . . " Hie name "Peeora" was plastered onto the truck in five-foot letters, but the diabolical judge had evidently been too wise to dally at the scene. The other two candi­dates were playing some popular airs further up the street, but I didn't bother investigating. I already had a clear picture of the election issues,

"confusion" ali ng with an insight into life in the political party whenever the Freshman class is mentioned. While we

still believe that freshmen have special needs and need extra services, we must admit that our current freshmen, the class of '54. are trying hard to prove us wrong.

They have created a program of activities which put to shame most of the activities of the lordly upperclassmen. Included among their many projects are a Presidential and Dean Reception coupled with a dance, a Freshman faculty tea, a newspaper, and chess and volley-ball tournaments, j ROBINSOST***^. . .* Amoid, An indication that these activities are shared in by ihe; you against ov*rcoafHto>«t««. majority of the class is the fact that 1300 class cards were! sold in a group of 1700.

We would like to offer our hearty congratulatioos to the Freshman class and pause to wonder whether, perhaps, they should give settlors and juniors advice and guidance. Or at least a few tips on running class affairs.

"Bom Yesterday.'' the rollick­ing comedy which ran so success­fully on Broadway for four years, will be presented by Dramsoc on December 8th and 9th.

The play deals with the prob­lems and trials involved in edu­cating a slightly stupid blonde. This represents an attempt to re­verse the proverbial procedure, and get blood into a stone. The efforts and antics of her educators to bring light into the darkness of her mind never fail to pro­vide many moments of mirth to the audience.

This comedy classic will be pre­sented at the Pauline Edwards Theatre, with ducats being doled out at a dollar each.

Oa November 17. 1939, the students of Charles University in Prague demonstrated against the murder of a young medical student Jan Opletal, against fascinn and for the independence of their country. The German invaders retaliated: some student leaders were shot, hostels were raided and hundreds of students were sent to Nazi concentration camps.

Nbvember 17 bocama. during tha war. a symbol of tha unity of all democratic students and of their aspiration fee peace and tha right to live and study free from tha menace ofatenriie dastruetion. Whan tha war ended, tha International Student Day ealabratioas were expanded to include tremendou* world-wide fund drives which financed relief and seconstruction projects in liberated and colonial countries.

In 1950. International Student Day is being celebrated after tha successful completion of the largest and most representative student meeting ever held—the 2nd World Congress of the International Union of Students. Enthusiastic delegates of nearly 6,000,000 students from 78 countries met in Prague, and unanimously agreed to support International Student Day as a token of their strong desire for peace, based on the unity of all students—regardless of political, philosophical or religious belief.

This, too, was the theme of the Prague Congress. There is great concern among the students of the world over the danger of a new war; they view with alarm the fact that the United States is sup­porting corrupt and reactionary governments all over the world, that Germany is being rearmed, that propaganda for war is widening the split caused by the cold war.

Faced by tha povibility that tha Korean situation may erupt into the much-dreaded third world war. tha International Union of Students has called mi young people avarywharo—Christfca*. Moslems. Jaws and atheists. Conservatives. Liberals. jftErialistt and Communists, as wall aa non-affiliated individnala—to wotk together to win permanent peace, as "tha most important task for students in all countries."

I was astounded at the vast number of European and Asian students who were familiar with conditions of education here in the United States. They were disturbed by restrictions on academic freedom at many U. S. campii, the increasing influence of the military on educational in*titutiof\s and processes and the growing economic difficulties of students. Many expressed sympathy with the students who fought to remove Davis and Knickerbocker from the faculty of our own school, and evidenced great concern with the discrimination and segregation practiced against Negro students.

It was interesting to note that in almost every country, students aro engaged in activitias very similar to our own. In

tha use of racist texts and tha re-hiring of Nasi peo-aro being fought vigorously. South African students aro

moat interosted in winning equal opportunitias for ah. regaid less of national origin. The restoration of cuts in educational budgets is the aim of Brasiliaa students, and in Britain tha main empham is on improving economic opportunities for students. In China and other Asian countries, tha campaign ^jrinrt il­literacy is being carried out by these nations' students.

Thus occupied in their day-to-day activities, the students of all countries paused last Friday to commemorate their solidarity with their colleagues. To them. International Student Day is a high­light in the campaign to overcome ignorance, poverty and war. Working tirelessly to improve their own conditions, they are also improving the chances that we will be able to get along peacefully in a free world.

Despite the ten-point spread the Manhattan Freshmen were chased hard all the way and they weren't really in the clear until a ten-point spree late in the Int half opened up a gap which the Beavers could not close.

Baseball has Connie Mack: football has Alonao Stagg: basketball j has Mat Holman, the greatest player in the history of the game, who begins his 32nd season as coach of the Lavender when the team meets SL Francis. While stall starring for the Critics, Holman took over the reins of the Beaver hoop squad and soon brought the Col­lege on a par with the best in tha nation.

His '23 and '24 teams loss only one game each year, as did his 31-'34 squads. The Beavers of '41 and '42 entered the NTT. Through­

out this period, the Holman style of "give and go" sat the mark for other teams. During tha mid-forties, however, Holman adopted the "fast break" and soon afterward the College was recognised as the epitome of tha fast-breaking attack.

The peak of Holman's career was reached last Spring when his squad performed the unprecedented feat of annexing both major basketball titles. As a result of this accomplishment, ha received the Helms Foundation award as the Coach of the Year. The record of Holman teams over the past 31 years is 3S3 wins against 132 leases for a .745 marie "Mr. Basketball** enters upon his 32nd season with a chance to better his sterling record.

In the near future. 'Liberty' and other nationally prominent journals will follow with similar : i nnouncements.

In lists of all-star u-ams, Ed Warner, was selected among the first ten in the country by every

Ed Roman, ranked among the greatest shot makers in the land, was picked on most national all star teams- and is a unanimous choice'on all-East selections. His 475 points last year set a CCNY record.

Floyd Layne. called "most out­standing defensive player in the area" was placed on many all-East teams for just that. His siz­zling 40% shooting average in last year's tourney only supplied an additional reason for his selec­tion.

City Gunning For Seventh Tourney Bid

This season. CCNY will be gunning for its seventh major tourney. The team previously ap­peared in four NIT and two NCAA efforts.

The Lavender's first tourney hid was the '40-'41 NIT. That year's squad, paced by Red Holz-man, advanced to the semi-final? by thumping Virginia 64-35, be­fore losing to Ohio U. and Frcnk-ie Baumholz 45-43.

The following year, the team •was back in the NIT by virtue of an excellent 15-2 season mark. In fortunately, W. K e n t u c k y •verwbelmed the Beavers 49-46

in the opening game, with Blev-:ens of the Hilltoppers scoring 22 to Holzman's 17. The Beavers

[consoled themselves by trimming [LIU. 42-34. for third place. J In '47. CCNY stepped Syracuse j 61-59. at Troy, N. Y, a» a special i playoff to cop the NCAA bid. Once in the Garden, they turned back Wisconsin, 70-50. but found George Kafton and Holy Cro.-i* too much for them in the semis. Kaftan dunked in 30 points.

It wasn't until the '4g-*49 sea­son that City got another NIT invite. 17-g lor the year, ihey ran into Loyola of Chicago^ ar.

Hardwood courts all over the country are beginning to bustle with activity as basket ball atarta its annual drive to push football off the nation's sport pages. With the Beavers starting their long journey down the tourney road a look at other "fives'* making the same trip will be illuminating.

As Fr«*sliiii«»ii -

Pushing the Beavers in their Metropolitan bailiwick will prob­ably be the perennial "pros" LIU and Seton Hall. Clair Bee's hustlers are loaded again this yaar, having lost only tiny play-ui*ker Ed Card and bulky Herb Sctwrer. Returning from a power­ful bunch last year are 6-7 Sher­man White. 5-11 Leroy Smith and 6-2 Dolph Bigos. Up from the Blackbird frosh come Ray Felix, a jgammoth 6-11 center, Irwin Belopolsky, and two California

The starting five consists of co- i captains Gilly Allen of Boys High, chosen on last year's ail; scholastic team, and Jerry Dom-: merscbek of Jefferson: Chester Zager of Roosevelt; Warren Ro­gendorf of Gompers. and Marty Girkin also of Rooeevelt. There is a posstbtlity that Girkin might not play, in which case Vinny Zoda will fill the pivot position.
