I f Secretary Resigns; SG Exec. Seeks Funds

By MIKE SPIELMAN and RALPH DANNHEISSER At a meeting of the Executive Committee of Student Govern-

jnent last night, Iris Goldstein announced her resignation as Stu­dent Council Secretary. An emergency meeting has been called this afternoon to recommend a suc­cessor, and to discuss means for procuring additional funds for SG.

The reasons for Miss Gold­stein's resignation were partly the pressures of school work, and also an attempt to protest the present restrictions put on the SC Secretary.

Miss Goldstein feels that the Secretary is burdened with so many menial chores that she couldn't concentrate enough on. the policy and decision making aspects of her job.

Also, at last night's meeting, the Executive Committee decided increased funds- would be neces­sary or else some of the services provided by SG would be greatly curtailed.

The money is needed for the •hiring of paid secretarial help for SG. Gloria Kingsley, SC Presi­dent said that, "Paid help is es­sential to the SG in performing its proper function—serving the

Ousted Hunter Prof. Entitled To Trial, State Court Rules

The Court of Appeals of New York State ruled last week that a Hunter College faculty member, discharged for Communist party memberahip, was entitled to.a court trial of the charges against him.

^ The case involved Dr. Charles'* Hughes, missed because of Communist

Party membership, has a right after dismissal to a court trial of the same charges." The Ccurt decided in the affirmative.

W. Hughes, former Associate Professor of Music at Hunter. He was supended in April, 1954, and dismissed last October by the Board of Higher Education.

' About thirty-five New York', City teachers have been dismiss­ed for failing to satisfactorily answer questions put to them in departmental trials. However, in !

'an article in the New York Times last Thursday it was stated that according to legal authorities the decision did not appear to set a precedent fcr reopening in court the departmental trials and dis­missals, i

student body to the greatest ex­tent."

According to Arnie Deutch-man, Class of '58 Rep., SG serv­ices such as mimeographing, final exams, schedule of teachers, and efficient publicity service, would be affected.

Several means of obtaining the added funds were discussed. These included the possibilities of a tax on each individual stu­dent, and a graduated tax, ac­cording to n^embership, on the various campus organizations. Also suggested was an admission charge for future Friday Night Student Center Balls.

New System. In other actions last night, the

Committee voted unanimously to introduce a new system of char­tering College Fraternities. Under the Exec, proposal which, if passed by SC, will be referred to the Student Faculty Commit­tee on Student Affairs, provi­sional charters would be granted to new groups for a two semes­ter period, prior to becoming permanent. During this time the faternity would be entitled to use the College's name and facilities.

Suggested by DeMaios The proposal resulted from a

suggestion by Joe DeMaios, Pres­ident of the Interfratemity Coun­cil, who asked the Committee to institute a ten month waiting pe­riod for the granting of a char­ter to a newly organized frater­nity. DeMaios felt that this would be a safeguard against "social groups using fehree Greek letters for a name, smearing the name of the College."

NSA to Detail Tour Program

A program for potential stu­dent tourists to Europe will be held tomorrow by the College's National Student Association (NSA) delegation.

The Association's summer pro­gram will be described at the meeting, which will be held at at 12 15 PM in Room 204. Klap-per. In addition, Louise Shack-now, a student who traveled through Europe on an NSA tour last summer, will describe her experiences.

NSA will run twenty tours next summer through Europe, the Balkans and the Middle East. They will range in cost from $825 to $1000, with the average approximately $&?5. Last year over 400 students from the Unit­ed States took part in the pro­gram.

from the Fund. The City College Fund is an

alumni fund-raising group which has already made a $200,000 gift to the Center. Of this amount, $180,000 has been expended so far on furnishings and equipment for the Center.

Dean James S. Peace, Direc-

"^W

Dg an James S. Peace To If ear Decision

tor of the' Center, will try to meet with - President Buell G. Gallagher today to learn the alumni group's decision on the request.

If the request is not granted, about forty rooms in the Center will be only partially furnished, according to Joe DeMaios, Direc­tor of the Finley Managers

Agency. In addition, he said plans for the incomplete snack bar and the music listening room will be held up.

On the possibility of the re­quest being granted, Mr. David Newton, Associate Director of the Center, said "Officially, I don't know, but I would venture the guess that the Fund could not increase its original commit­ment of $200,000 for two reasons.

"'First," he said, "until thor­ough evaluation is made of the furnishings and equipment at the center, and how it can best be used, we cannot be specific about additional requests for funds. "Also," he added, "the Fund is not a bottomless pit. It has con­tributed heavily this year to the College community."

If the Center is not granted the additional $33,000, an evalu­ation of the needs of the Center will be made before the remain­ing $20,000 of the Fund gift is allocated. Under consideration by Dean Peace is the installation of an inter-com system between the administrative offices in the. Center.

As a security measure. Dean Peace is also considering install­ing paging loudspeakers in the corridors of the Center. The loudspeakers would be advanta­geous in securing the building, he explained, in the event of an­other incident such as the attack on a student on the third floor of the Center last October.

the Future A gallery of City College students we have known would

inevitably include the fellow whose only after-class activity is the cafeteria, varied by a nap in a lounge. He may wear white bucks, but they carry him only as fa* as the subway. His chief comment on co-curricular life is a sneer at student "politicians"—although he'll complain when a dance is over­crowded or fees are raised.

His type is so common that almost every semester Stu­dent Council must go begging for people to run for office. This situation is all the more bewildering on a campus whose students are supposedly alert citizens, attuned to national and world affairs. Such students cannot logically ignore the activities at their own College, which in large measure re­flect—and may shape—those of the outside world.

When ideas are stunted or student independence re­pressed on college campuses, the nation will inevitably be the poorer for it. Men and women who learn in college to form convictions and fight for them will be real additions to a world sorely in need of courage. Although Council does not deal directly with outside politics, such conceptions as membership lists and investigations of teachers are brought up and examined.

In addition, concrete benefits* for the school may be achieved through Student Council. Its members to a large extent may decide the future of new organizations, the facilities for clubs, and even that matter so important to College students—fees. In debate, Council members learn more about the intricacies of logic and oratory than two years of Speech can possibly give.

By the way, they get a good deal of pleasure out of having a part in running the school. A good, alert Council can be a tonic to school activities. In one semester not long ago, an inexpensive driving program was begun, a prom started, and long strides taken toward improved student-faculty relations.

City College will be judged by outsiders largely on the basis of its Student Government. Its members discuss crucial national matters every summer with other college leaders at the National Student Association Congress. The Administra­tion at the College gets its impressions of the student body mainly through its elected representatives. We cannot afford to let positions go to the unworthy through default.

We have always believed that City College students are capable of governing themselves with intelligence. I t remains for the students to recognize the importance and the privi­lege of self-government. The time has arrived for Student Council aspirants to start circulating petitions in order to run next month. We urge all students who are concerned with the future of their College to do so.

'Dogcart College' Idea Spur to Student Debates

By MARTY SIEGEL These days not even the oldest janitor or elevator operator at

the college remembers the boys of the Clionian Society. Clionia, the oldest College club is presently known as the Debating Society.

It was formed in 1851 by lower classmen in an effort to create a college atmosphere and dis--* — prove the opinion that City was \ rules and left the campus as a

a "dogcart College." The opening meeting was at­

tended by only ten students. This situation continued f<zr another year because the upper class­men refused to join an organiza­tion founded by freshmen.

To add to Clionia's member­ship problem, a rival debating society was formed the next year. It was called Phrenocosmia. The first meeting debated the prop­osition that "political themes are fit subjects for the pulpit." The winning side's stand is not on record.

Two years after it was formed Phrenocosmia had ten members. Of these ten, eight were officers. The balance was made even more uneven when one of the rank and file quit the club and 'took

protest.. They won out when the rules were withdrawn in 1857. During the fight Clionia changed its motto from "Brothers skilled in debate" to "We fight as brothers." '

One of the most imporrtant of the Clionian Society's functions during most of its existence was the compilation of its library* This library contained only books ,that were banned from the Col­lege Library. Some of the titles were "The Decameron" and "Tom Jones".

In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries the de­bating societies lost much of their membership to the fraternities. Both clubs finally merged and the new group was called the

the book containing the minutes j "Debating Society." of each meeting with him. Be- j During the late 1800's both so-cause of this nothing is known j cieties published magazines but about Phrenocosmia after this time except that it was "public­ly disgraced" at its annual din­ner in 1956.

The president came to the af­fair drunk and lowered the level of the whole party. He was later made to apologize. One of the clauses in the apology was that he must "refrain from boasting of the offence."

In 1853 the Board of Education adopted a set of rules regulating the clubs. Their number was limited to two, they could be dissolved'at any time, faculty ad­visors had to be present at all the meetings and they were not allowed to meet at night. The clubs refused to accept these

only one of them lasted into this century. This was the "Clionian", which was last published in 1935. It is unknown though, whether it was pufolisthed by the debating society. Those connected with the society through 1935 say publication was discontinued the year before. |

The debating societies per­formed the double function oi keeping the students interested in world affairs and in extra­curricular activities. A reading of a list of the topics discussed gives a picture of changing con­ditions at the College and in the world. One question still re­mains: Who published the "Clion­ian" in 1935?

Postnotes

A Good Opportunity As an example of the power for good that Council mem­

bers may have, the SC Executive has been asked by the Student-Faculty Committee on Student Affairs to review its chartering procedures. A tightening of the standards used in chartering new campus organizations could lead to finan­cial benefits for the students — or, at least, might avoid deficits such as we have this semester.

We are particularly concerned with 'newspapers" aimed only at specific groups, such as Education majors. No campus group is more costly than a newspaper, as Tech News has proven by costing $860 of the S1200 required by student organizations this term. The gap may have to be filled by a rise in student fees.

SFCSA has suggested breaking down the charter re­quirements so that a group which is granted a charter may j be judged ineligible to produce a newspaper with Student- j Faculty Fee Committee funds. This seems a reasonable idea, j We have maintained that most news made in the College is j not restricted to any group, and that information of special:

interest to various schools may be put out, inexpensively.' in mimeographed form.

In recognizing these financial facts of life, the SG Executive would prove itself vigilant of the best interests of the student bodv.

Student Chases Cockroaches, Australian Ones in Particular

One student at the College chases cockroaches to study rather than to stamp. At present Eli Horowitz is working on the home­grown variety but if he receives the Fulbright Scholarship for study in Australia he has applied'* for. he will l i av^new roach sub­jects.-

The Australian cockroach, or Periplanta Americana, is the scourge of the farmers in the northern region of Australia, ac­cording to Horowitz. It has no natural enemies and it multiplies at a terrific rate. Horowitz wants to study its life cycle and para­sites in the hope of finding means to destroy these pests before they can procreate. After a year of study, Horowitz plans to re­turn to the United States and publish his findings. j

At present, Horowitz is work-j ing in Microtechnique with Pro- j fessor Joseph Copeland (Biology) j in preparatkm for his projected j studies. Because of the dearth j of Australian cockroaches in this \ country. Horowitz has been work-! ing with any and all insects he j

can find.' He is imbedding them in Bioplastic, a new technique which makes the specimen per­manent and easily studied. -

Yes, only Viceroy has this filter composed of 20,000 tiny filter traps. You cannot obtain the same filtering action in any other cigarette.

The Viceroy filter wasn't just whipped up and rushed to market to meet the new and skyrocketing demand for fil­tered cigarettes. Viceroy pioneered. Started research more than 20 years ago to create the pure and perfect filter.

Smokers en masse report that filtered Viceroys have a finer flavor even than cigarettes without filters. Rich, satisfying, yet pleasantly mild.

Viceroy draws so easily that you wouldn't know, without looking, that it even had a filter tip . . . and Viceroys cost only a penny or two more than cigarettes without filters!

That's why more college men and women sjnoke VICEROYS than any other filter cigarette . . . that's why VICEROY is the largest-sellinji filtn- cigarette in the world!

By BRUNO WASSERTHEIL Starting tomorrow, four students will start on a search—wear­

ing blindfolds. At the stroke of noon, some top members of the Beaver Broadcasters will begin to hunt tor '"the girl with the sexiest voice at the College." • -^

To insure strict impartiality and to be shielded from feminine pulchritude, wiles and winks, the judges, while doing their work, will remain completely blind­folded.

Any girl at the College is eli­gible to enter the contest. The prize to the winner will be a regular fifteen-minute broadcast over the College's radio station, WVCC, operated by the Beaver Broadcasters. From 12 Noon to 2 PM tomorrow and next Thurs­day, auditions will be held in Room 211 Shepard. Contestants will be allotted five minutes dur­ing which they can just talk or read any selection they choose. Tape recordings will be made of their performances so they can be played back and compared to help the judges came to, a de­cision.

The winner of the contest, ac­cording to Aaron Janowski, pro­gram director of WVCC, will be announced on the opening broad­cast of the radio station this semester on Thursday, Decem­ber 15. All broadcasts will emanate from Rooms 343 and 344 Finley Student Center. The sta­tion formerly had its studios in the Department of Speech Office in Shepard.

Bob Lifton, chief engineer of WVCC, says that the broadcasts will be heard in five buildings on the South Campus: Finley Student Center, Downer, Stieg-litz, Park and the Gate House. The new transmitter, built by members of the Beaver Broad­

casters, is twenty times more powerful than the one used last semester.

The judges consider themselves connoisseurs of the subject they will weigh. Although they will decide - on the quality of vocal vibrance alone, the contestants must be warned that as soon as the winner is announced the blindfolds will come off.

Danee... A ten-piece band will feature

the Student Center Ball Fri­day in the Finley Student Cen­ter Grand Ballroom. Dance begins at 8:15 PM. This is the first time a band of this size will play in the Ballroom.

mainly an all veteran squad, with three seniors, six juniors and only two sophomores. The Panthers compiled an outstand­ing 16-5 record last season, and are coached by the veteran George Faherty.

Among the better returning lettermen are co-captains Harvey Halfond, six-one, and Gil Scott, an even six footer. Halfond has a good set shot and is verv f.ist, while Scott is a speedy " back-court man with a good jump shot from around the circle.

The other probable starters are six-six Bernie Ehrlich, the team's number one rebounder; Marty Funk, a six-five junior; and Lar­ry McDonough. a six-three junior, who is a constant hall-hawk on defense.

The Lavender freshman men­tor Dave Polansky is experi­encing difficulty in selecting a starting five because of a leg in­jury to Alex Delia, who Polan­sky counted on as his starting center. John Pardo. another six-four man, will most likely open

I at the pivot position. Tony Breaux, six-two, and Julio Dela-torre, six-foot, a pair of real racehorses who can drive and jump well will comprise ths for­wards. Five-eleven Steve Mark.-, and five-eight Bernie Mennis s-hould form the backcourt duo.

Pivotmen Hold Key to Knights 1955-56 Basketball Fortunes

The lack of an efficient pivotman, which usually spells doom for many collegiate basketball quintets, remains the big question mark for a Queens "five" that is abundant in talented forecourt and backcourt perfoi-mers. "

Cagers Receive Initial Test At Adelphi College Saturday

By BERT ROSENTHAL The College's inexperienced basketball team will be tested for the first time this

season at the Garden City, Long Island proving grounds on Saturday night at 8:30 PM against a highly-rated Adelphi quintet. They will be unleashed by the noted cage sci­entist, Prof. Nat Holman, who will be making his thirty-fifth test as City College coach. The City freshmen will engage the

Jim Lawler, a six-foot, five-inch, 230-pound slow - moving senior and Werner Norton, a six-four and one-half inexperienced sophomore, hold the key to the Queensmen's fortunes this sea­son, according to coach Robert H. Salmons. An All-American candidate at Murray State Teach­ers College where he teamed with the inimitable Joe Fulks, Salmons is starting his ninth year as varsity basketiball men­tor at the Flushing school.

Right now the Queens stand­outs are Don Hill, a six-foot, three-inch junior forward, with a highly effective jump shot, and captain and court general, five-ten guard Leo Saldinger. They

A leg injury to third-year reg­ular George Reda, a five-ten senior, 'Which will sideline him for three or four weeks, has thrown open one starting guard post.

Two highly touted sophomores, five-eleven Bab Bass, the out­standing scorer on the frosh squad of 1954-55 with a twenty-two per game average, and five-ten George Harvey, who netted sixteen .a contest for the fresh­men, are pressing several veter­ans for opening game assign-

Ralph Schefflan, a six-one junior, who averaged 6.3 points

per game last season will be at one guard position. Schefflan, vtfho gained a first-string bertn at mid-season of last year fol­lowing the graduation of Jack McGuire, possesses a prolific one-handed jump shot, is a good driver and is very fast.

Captain Lou Berson, one of the Beavers "Mighty Mites" will open at the other guard berth. The diminutive five-seven, and a half senior, is a hard driver, pos­sesses a fine set shot and has the necessary attributes of .a court general.

Luckies taste better, first, because Lucky Strike means fine tobacco. Then, that tobacco is TOASTED to taste better. So light up a Lucky. It's the winner—and still champion—for better taste!
