These films, employing only in­animate objects—the works of Mkhelangelo and Pablo Picasso -donorctrate the use of the antra and film editing as the devices of vital force within the frame of the picture.

The Tttan" re-creates the life tf Mkhelangelo, his work, his tones, by presenting a flow of pictures of the towns in which he lived, his sculptures and Hiwtmgs, all accompanied by a Mtafcle narrative and musical •awe.

But today cannot be considered normal times by any means. Our country is currently aiding the United Nations forces in putting down th* »r'***4 S33?***ion of the Communist armies in ICurea. The problem of how to deal with Communists here at home looms larger and lerger. . In view of the critical world situation, should we or shouldn't we allow the Communists who are using every means at their disposal to hamper the Ameri­can defense effort, equal civil liberties? Before the Korean aggression 'lynch justice" had been practiced against the Com­munist in the form of McCarthy witch-hunts and Peekskill riots but by and large the American people had condemned these methods.

K :s .r.< t:..:;u ••• UK oppo-ed \<i (^•Mimumsm and another to IK* ..:.•. ivru.-j jj.s:..« i tiwnk that th«' C.mwnunist party program as .• i prartiffd m Uu>Ma and other lands where it has gained con-*•••: .- \'XK «:< ..;«•>! tri;»a». to individual liberty the world has ever •.:i< \\v> 'n<.i- <*on:!iiuri:.>t.- d« not believe in the right of the individ-• L*\ t • .j»ti: rr.ine hov. iie shall live his life, or what kind of i,'jv»-;:.r::e.'iT h' shall ihoose t<. live under Their basic contempt '• r t?<- masses is reason en'-ujih tor liberals to oppc.se them. Now tnat r*omiiiun:xtn na- t: ;td to impress its way of life onto other people ov force. ;t ;i.iist be opu«.sed and stopped.

But there are many different ways of opposing communism. If we believe in democracy, then we have got to practice democ­racy in our dealing; with them. Even though the Communists in our c—mtry would suppress our basic freedoms if they had the chance,, we cannot truthfully suppress or outlaw theirs if we truly bt ' t ive in our democratic ideals.

Sjr.'e Korea. vvi:h war clouds getting darker and darker every cj^v.'iij.:. attitude of toll-ration is having tougher and tougher going. Lfc-iiiix rain methods are too slow say the "lynch justice" fanatics. The Reds an- aiding and abetting the enemy, so they have got to «• el.mmu'.cd by any means even 'hough it entails vicious methc.Js ike the .-meur. witch hunt and loyalty oath It is too bad that

But 'n the final analysis If we really believe in democracy, then we cannot allow this lynch justice hysteria to ccuquer democratic processes. Democracy is facing its greatest test throughout the world. If in time of crii is the things it stands for must be suppressed then in the long run democracy cannot be worth very much. By fightmg a totalitarianism by its own methods, we will qraduallv evolve a fair sized totalitarianism of our own. We must fight the lynch justice methods just as fiercely as w e fight Communism.

Alice ta Wonderland had a happy ending It was a!' a dream. • We too. are experiencm^ a bad dream, but it is rapidly being trans-lormed into a nightmare Unless the liberal movement opens its eyes to the peril and awakens soon. «t may be too late For we may tind that tn the process of defending civil liberties against totalitar­ianism, we will have lost our >wn freedoms.

Keep Informed! TIMK was when college life was four years of escape from j

reality. But those time", have long since passed. With the crises in the world today, it would be sheer!

hypocrisy for college students to detach themselves from] the happenings of the external world. It takes only one letter; from the draft board to transform a CCNY student wearing; an NIT-NCAA tourney victory shirt into a U. S. Army Sol- j dier wearing khaki.

As potential leaders of the world of tomorrow, we must be prepared to take a more active role in the world of today. We must inform ourselves of all methods that will keep peace in the world. We must be ready to lead the way to achieve peace.

If we aren't prepared to do so, our world of tomorrow rnay never come.

Hope tor NSA THE six delegates who returned from the NSA congress

at Ann Arbor are optimistic about the future of that august body. Certainly the optimism deserves to be shared. The resolution on Korea and the reaffirmation of the role of the student throughout the wottd have gone a long way to convince the skeptics that NSA is hero to stay.

Now that the new semester has officially started we find the same old disruptive element back at work, destroying the way of life we hold so dear at the College. Those beautiful tra­ditions which bring tears to the eyes of under­graduates are in danger of being destroyed by a group which owes its allegiance to a foreign idea.

The dangerous group is the incoming fresh­men and the menacing idea one which is re­pugnant to all truly discriminating students, is work.

The freshman is ignorant of the collegarte way of doing things. He arrives on time for every class throughoqt the term, weakening thfc effect produced by the conscientious upper classmen who show up late, orhen they bother to show up at all. This a sure sign of perverted idealism It undermines the united front the students pre­sent to the all-demanding faculty;

One of the most important ways in which a freshman can upset the delicate equilibrium ol the college community is in the matter of grades. Grades, as any poor student knows and will quickly tell you, are of no value at all; if they are good, though, they may be used in persuad­ing reluctant parents and doubting friends that four years at college will produce a mental mar­vel Naturally you can't guarantee immediate placement upon graduation, but a recent survey has shown. . . .

You'll have a hard time trying to eonvinta the present natch of under­graduates on this campus that there is mora to Sport at City Collage than Basketball. It will ha an equally difficult task to toll them of tho victory-colored threads which run through the Collage's sporting fabric woven during the past fifty years. In an effort to acquaint City Collegians with tho rich­ness of its sport tradition. Observation Post reviews Lavender muscle-bending in the first fifty years of the Twentieth Century

At the turn of the century, the old Canadian Indian game of lacrosse, was the big passion of collegiate sport lovers along the Atlantic scabotird. The College's lacrussemen had become adept at the bruising game, during the late 80*s. and they reigned as rulers of the Metropolitan Lacrosse League.

Track nudged lacrosse for spotlight honors during the first decade. G. A. Schuepel ran the "100" in a blistering 10:8, which caused many to comment on his speed. The mile was run oft in 4:54 and L. J. Feuerbach smashed the old 32 ft. 11 in. mark for the 16-lb. shot by putting the iron bail 34 ft. 7 in., in '01. They kept wittling away at the mile mark. R. B. Kennedy clipped it to 4:52, in *04. and two years later Morris Frank sweated it down to 4:49.6. A running bread jump mark of 21 feet was posted against Swarthmore at the end of the 03 dual meet season.

Basketball bounced into the sporting picture that year. The first bounces made skeptical critics examine the ball for dead spots: City played mediocre ball until 1906 when they lost to Fordham 13-22. but won eight others.

Karl Schmitt, a fishlike senior, set a raft of swimming records in 08, includ­ing the following: 50-yards. .27.4; 100-yards, 1:04; 300-yards. 4:03.

The *10 season put the entire athletic program in jeopardy. Swimming defeats jolted the AA Board almost into the pool. Even basketball slumped to a 5-5 record, after the quintet played winning ball since '06.

However the 'll-'12 season brought many wins and many grins to Coach Leonard Palmer's basketball team galloped to a S-2 finish

and the College tracksters ran ahead of Polytechnic and Brooklyn in tho Intercollegiate Relay Invita­tion. And the most pleasing de­

velopment of all was tho rasurgance of tho swimmers; they wore unde­feated, except for a water-logged Iocs to Cornell. In tho same pool, the College had slowly been de­veloping a water polo foam, a tort of immersed basketball game. Lad by Captain Davis Lovinson. the *11 squad went undefeated.

The drums were beating on the Heights, tapping out the melodies of a minor athletic renaissance. College athletes swaggered a bit, and talk be­gan of erecting a new stadium on the plain adjoining gothic City. Barroom and lawn chatter about a new stadium soon became a reality. Adolph Lewi­sohn. a wealthy philanthropist, agreed to foot the bill.

While they waited for the stadium to be built, the baseball squad l>eat S t John's in '14 for the first time m a decade. And Lionel B. Mackenzie's track lads took one of the mile Class Relay prizes at the Penn Relay games to end a 20-year drought. , +

Mr. Lewisohn's Stadium opened in time for the IS-IS round of events. But football, for which most collegiate arenas are built, was nowhato to bo found in tho

College's athletic cusocula. However, they did ptey •be Stadium in its initial yean, and tho dapper

The war ended and the Golden Age of sport, which was starting in the out­side world, also gave some of its sheen to sport at College. Basketball broke into the spUlight with the coaching debut of Nat Holman in his favorite game. The twenty-three year-old mentor installed his give-and-go style of ballplaying. and it immediately started drawing plaudits, in addition to giving the College thirteen victories in a sixteen game sked.

A student referendum held in *20 showed that undergraduates favored the rcbtrth of football almost unanimously. So, with peexy Mezes' Messing and t i ck­ing, a frosh i l was started at the end of the ' » season. An Ivy League quarter­back, from the University of Pennsylvania* came to the College in 1923 to lead Use Varsity in its second card of Intercollegiate games. He was "Doc" Parker. The previous year the 11 had compiled a 1 and « record, but surely, with Parker here, better days were ahead, a happy sports crowd insisted. *

Real opulence made active, multi-sport coach Holman perspire during the *2I-*a basketball season. With a powerful array of sharpshooters and ball-handlers fillmg his line-up. this team swept the Met title. East championship and the heated NYU gsme, » - ! « . with a 12-2 record. This squad was followe* by the *2l-'2l team, which again took the Met crown. Nicknamed "midget mar­vels." they a w a g - d 5-7 in height, md compiled a 12-1 mark.

Lavender Gridders Set for Saturday Opener Mew Beaver Coach to Lead Eleven Against New Haven Teachers Team

Shrub Oak. N. Y—With a new head coach at the helm, and two weeks of extensive practice at Shrub Oak behind them, the ld50 City College football team has returned to Lewisohn Stadium to await its initial game of the season against New Haven State Teach­ers this coming Saturday.

But even at this late date, the squad's true potential is still in doubt. Coach Irv Mondschein. who was appointed head coach when Frank Tubridy was suddenly recalled to active military service, knows very little of how his inexperienced club will do in actual competition. *

Backfiald Looks Strong One outstanding aspect in an

otherwise uncertain situation is the quali ty of the all-veteran backlield. In the words of Coach .Mondschein. -This is perhaps, the best backfield in City College his­tory. Anyone on the first two units is capable of scoring from any point en the field." As things stand now. the first offensive unit will have 'Shimmy" Kalman re­turning at quarterback; Co-cap­tain Mel Warshofsky and Pete Piz/arelli at the halfs. and John Palcsty at fullback.

Allagarooters Boost Monk

While most of the student body was content to review past athletic achievements by City College teams during the recent vacation, the Allagarooter brain-trusters were concocting plans for future aids to the morale of lavender-clad aggregations.

Included on the booster club's fall schedule, besides the usual publicity job on home football games, are trips to two out-of-town grid contests, four mam-

j moth rallies, official send-offs, j band and all. for the football team { I when it leaves for away games. j plus "many victory parties," ac-| cording to this term's Big Beaver. | Jerry Jacobson *51. The soccer

Jus t one year ago, Dr.. Harold Parker, who for quite some tune had been associated with City College football, stepped down from his post ac head coach of the Beaver Gridders to return to his duties in the Hygiene department. Frank Tubridy, who was line coach a*. the time, was selected to lead the Lavender for the '49 season and for the years to come. Mr. Tubridy. who had starred in football for the College in 1924-25. was the first City College football player to become head coach at his alma mater . Coupled with the fact that he had been an outstanding high school coach, he seemed to be a perfect choice to return the Beavers to winning ways.

For lha present time however, it is not known if he could have succeeded in this man-size task: for once again militarr de­mands have made their inroads in the City Collage athletic pro­gram. This time, oddly enough, it was noi in the loss of a»hlettt. but instead in the recall to active service of Mr. Ttabridy. tho head coach of football, who had but one year at his new job. Coach Tubridy's (now Captain Tubridy) change from civiliaa to army life was so swift that it left the City College football team without a major domo just three weeks before the opening of the season. £

They didn't have to look far for a new head mentor, selecting Irv Mondschein. who has been backfield coach for the past three seasons, to crack the whip this year. Actually. Mr. Mondschein. who

In 1933 he graduated from City College with a B.S. in Phys­ical Education, having played three years as quarterback on the football team. From there he went on to become backfield coach at Evander High, where Frank Tubcidy was ^ y ^ ^ j at that time. He was later backfield coach at Monroe, and i n 194S was made head coach at Commerce High. He has also played soma professional ball with the Passaic Red Devils while working for his Masters, which he received in 1935.
