Merchants Win In
D-H Tournament
by Edward Noble
The Edinboro Merchants, favored
team of the Erie basketball tourney,
swung into action last night against
the Tech T club and came through
with a nice win, 32-20. The mer­
chants romped to a ten point lead
before the Tech combine could gather
a point. It was in the second quart­
er before the Abramowski quint could
score, making a point on a charity
toss. The Tech club made a strong
bid in the second quarter with eight
points to Edinboro’s seven.
Intrieri opened the game with a
long shot from center in the first
minute of play. This started the
Merchants on their ten-point scoring
quarter. Wolfe, tearing in from the
side court, garnered four joints,
Case dropped in one bucket while
Wolfe and Intrieri both made good
on free throws from the foul line.
The Edinboro five came back in the
third quarter to regain their tenpoint lead, ending the quarter at 2414. In the fourth period they step­
ped up their lead two more points to
win 32-20.
The scoring for the Merchants was
paced by Wolfe and Case who led the
team with ten and nine points re­
spectively. Re Intrieri scored six,
Pfeiffer two, Reichel two, Crunick
two, and Bellingham one.
Eddie Simon showed some good
floor work in the first game of the
evening as Neighborhood House
waltzed all over the Ripley Trojans.
Another former Edinboro athlete,
Armand Chimenti, did quite a bit of
scoring for the Neighborhoods.

ALPHA PSI INITIATES
Six new members were formall/ in­
itiated into the Gamma Kappa cast
of the Alpha Psi Omega honorary
dramatic fraternity on Friday, March
twenty-seventh.
The initiation was held at Loveland
Hall following a dinner at the Bart­
lett Hotel in Cambridge Springs. New members of the fraterniay

Ghering, Edinboro; Helen Oleson,
Warren; Melvyn Shields, Edinboro;

lyn Gleeten, Edinboro.
Other members are: Rhea Matti­
son, Viola Goode, Clara Behringer.
Miss Behringer is president of the or­
ganization
Requirements for membership to

tion in the college dramatic club and
in other campus activities, and high
scholastic standing.

High School
Visitation Day
To attract people from neighbor­
ing high schools who are interested
in entering teaching, the college is
giving a High School Visitation Day
in honor of high seniors. Cards of
invitation are being sent out in the
near future. The date for this visit
is set on Friday, May 1.
The program for the afternoon and
evening is as follows:
1:30-2:00—Registration
2:00-3:00—Class visitation. During
this time students will be allowed
to visit classes
3:00-4:15—General entertainment by
art department, W. A. A., music
organizations, and Dramatic
Club
4:30-5:15—W. A. A. activities and
.
other work
5:30—Dinner. Guests will be wel­
comed by Dr. Ross and Mr. Jones
president of the Student Council
6:45—Movies or social hour
7:30-10:00—Informal dance with a
good orchestra
The program has been thoroughly
studied by a committee of Mr. Mal­
lory, Mr. McCommons, Miss Kunkel,
Miss Hudson, Isabel Crawford and
Jack Streit. Their program has been
approved by the Student Council.
As students of Edinboro State
Teachers College, we should support

Wins Recognition
Recognition has again been won by
a graduate of our Art Department.
Mr. J. P. Olmes, ’34, recently won
first prize of $100.00 for his oil
painting, “The Sleeping Woman/’
The Beaver County Art Exhibit,
in which Mr. Olmes won the prize, is
rapidly becoming popular in West­
ern Pennsylvania.
Mr. Olmes was an outstanding
student at Edinboro, not only schol­
astically, but socially as well.
He
did excellent work here, and, after
his graduation, secured a position as
teacher in the Pittsburgh public
schools.
The painting he entered in the
Beaver County exhibit was, to quote
the Pittsburgh Sun Telegraph, “an
amazingly realistic portrait of a tired
housewife caught napping”. It was
an unusual piece of work. Art critics
of this section have become very
favorably impressed with the quality
of' students turned out by our Art
Department. In a recent Pittsburgh
paper there was a picture of Mr.
Olmes being congratulated by the
chairman of the exhibit committee.
Edinboro is proud of its Alumni.
They are men and women well train­
ed and competent in their fields. One
after another they are becoming well
known. Edinboro is glad to be able
to claim them; and grateful for the
recognition they bring the school.

The Student-Faculty Cooperative
Council voted last Friday to abolish
all men’s varsity athletic competition
This is the first announcement* of the
move. The council has been working
for weeks ferreting out reports and
checking audit sheets.
They object to the high cost of the
trips and dangerous aspect of the
games. The investigating committee
uncovered the scandal after weeks of
contemplation. They found that a
certain athlete extravagantly ordered
a second cup of coffee in a Pittsburgh
hotel. One letter-man testified that
after three years of football he suf­
fered a severe attack of acute desquamtaion. These facts Led the
council to pass the most drastic measure in its history.
The athletic policy of the school
has never before been questioned.
Frantic protests against the ruling
from alumni and students are expect­
ed. The legendary heroes of Edin­
boro’s past athletic teams will soon
be forgotten. The male stud'ents
must now find relaxation in ping pong
and shuffleboard. It is not our duty
to comment on the abolition, but we
predict a raging student controversy.
(Continued on Page Four)

Popular Faculty
Members Leaving
It is a well-known fact about the
campus that Mr. Stillings will not be
with us next fall. Shortages on next
year’s state appropriations make it
necessary to eliminate the office of
Dean of Instruction. The work of
this department will be taken up by
other college officers.
Miss Chapman, whose friendly
smile has greeted Edinboro students
for many years, is retiring at the
close of this term. We are sorry to
see two such popular' people leave us,
and we hope they will not forget
Edinboro.

ASSEMBLY PROGRAMS
Next week at this time the Acad­
emy A Capella choir under the direc­
tion of Mr. Grender will present a
short concert. This is a group whose
program needs no advertising. Their
reputation is nation wide. In fact
an Erie publication attempted to raise
funds to send them to Europe last
winter.
We appreciate the thoughtfulness
of the group which gave us the glance
at their four years of experience in
Edinboro.

Jo Ann Walters is new president
of the Press Club; also an enthusias­
tic devotee of the study of atomic
structures.

stairway, no doors can be attached that will comply with fire regula­
tions for public auditoriums. The only solution seems to be a de­
finite effort toward silence on the part of every one who must move
about after the program has started.
It ought not to be necessary to say that if you must come late,
courtesy demands that you wait quietly and inconspicuously on the
landing until a break in the program makes it possible for you to
reach your seat with a minimum of confusion. At one of the recent
concerts students walked into the auditorium without even waiting
for the number to close.
The pitiful thing was that they seemed
quite unconscious of the poor taste they exhibited.
In the case of the children, it is as a rule not themselves, but
their elders that are to blame.
A closer supervision of their activi­
ties in the lower hall would help.
Mr. McCommons has been great­
ly handicapped by these lower-hall and stairway noises in his efforts
to present really enjoyable Friday night movies.
Every student
should cooperate in eliminating su^h annoyances.

It is a difficult thing to find a “person who will commend as free­
ly as he will criticize. These days of realism seem to have for their
watchword, “Anything to avoid the necessity of praising”.
It is a
bad situation. Not only does it deprive society of its foundations of
mutual trust and helpfulness, but it blights the personalities of those
who indulge in it.
Our daily lives are governed by the principle of an interchange
of services. If, by malicious gossip or unappreciative acts, we un­
set the balance necessary to this condition, we are ruining for our­
selves one of the most vital systems that man lives by.
Great care
must be taken to avoid for ourselves and others so tragic a situation.
Tragedy must result when men lose faith.
Have you ever known an old man or woman whose life was so
soured by an accumulation of malicious thoughts and selfish actions
that he could not live at peace even with himself?
Of course you
have; there are quite a number of them.
But not so many as there
will be fifty years from now if the college generation of today goes
collecting the sort of thoughts his actions exhibit now. The tone of
this article indicates that we will be among them.
It As the best policy to avoid sour people; particularly the ones
who are sour without sincerity. Nothing is more refreshing than to
meet a sincerely pleasant individual—one who is serene and kindly
and really happy. By all means criticize if you can remedy a really
bad situation, but never say unjust things merely for the sake of
liberating venom,
By doing so you will surely hurt the cause you
wish to help,
You must think hard before you can discriminate between the two.
A WORD OF ADVICE

Misunderstandings are apt to arise among college groups.
The
students of many European and Latin-American countries are often
known to do rash and unreasonable things.
They seldom consider
the effect of these acts upon the reputations of their countries.
President Wilson once said to a group of Princeton men, “It is the
inalienable right for college students to complain”.
The Spectator has no thought of repressing freedom of thought
and speech.
We do feel that personal criticisms in public speeches
or among organized groups in back alleys is not the proper spirit for
American college students.

So, Old Edinboro, our hearts are true,
The best of our fellowships came
through you.
And whether we lingered for two
years or four,
We’d all of us like to come back for
some more.

By June Welker
Have you ever walked on the
campus on a rainy spring night? It
is quite a different campus from that
of the daytime. The blackened build,
ings thrust themselves out of the dark
as if trying to throw aside the cljak
the night has laid upon them. The
campus lights are crossed by a multi­
tude of raindrops which fall to glist­
en on the pavement and to make a
buzzing sound when cars spin over
them. There is a rustle of raincoats1
a door opens and closes. In the yel­
low glow of the library windows
couples walk arm in arm down the
walk, swishing through the puddles
talking and laughing. Between the
trunks of the trees just beginning to
awaken from their winter rest the
lights of the dining room twinklego quickly out. From the comer
drifts the shouts of a group of small
boys who have discovered the feeling
of spring in the air.
It is strange, this fueling. It
seems born of the fresh, sweet, spring
wind, the new warmth of the air, and
the solidness of the walks, free at
last from ice. There are stars over­
head, raindrops in one s face, and the
smell of wet earth in one’s nostrils.
One feels that if spring is here can
summer be far behind?

For here the Prof knows you for what
you are,
You go fishing with him, or drive his
car.
He’ll loan you his boots, that come
up to the knees,
And sometimes the money to pay for
your fees.

CHI DELTA SIGMA

Two pledges have been added to
the roll of members of the Chi Delta
Sigma. They are Wilder Michael and
George Burke; both of these additions
are members of the freshman class.
Incidentally, the feeling over the
coming game between the Beta Xi
Fraternity and the Chi Delta Frater­
nity is running at high peak. With
the addition of Case and Intrieri to
the present team the members have
plenty of confidence. It promises to
be a great game packed; with spirit.
This game is on Monday night, March
30, at the gym.

Sponsors Game

The Juniors are having a struggle
to raise funds for the Junior-Senior
prom. To secure funds for proinoting this dance, the Juniors have se­
cured from the Council permission to
sponsor a basketball game between

The final game of the W. A. A.
basketball series was staged last
Tuesday afternoon when the fresh­
man-sophomore tie was played off.
The grim determination to win was
evident in the excellent playing of
both teams. After an exciting game,
the sophomores retained the champ­
ionship they won last year.
Another outstanding event of the
day was the awarding of Ski Club
emblems. The were presented by
Miss Ruttie at the half of the game
to the following girls who had high
scores: M. Ow, E. Ghering, B. Kaffer­
lin, R. Williams, R. Bell, F. Klinger,
A. Kruszka, and J. Welker. This
group will formulate the require­
ments for Ski Club membership for
our next season.

Spring Fever (It’s cause and pos­
sible cure)
Similar to the popular belief that
in the Spring a young man’s fancy
lightly turns to love, is the year round
saga that when in love a young man’s
fancy lightly turns to Spring. Be
that as it may the time has arrived
for a bit of advice concerning that
inescapable and usually fatal malady
—Spring Fever. (Apologies to Dr.
Fishbein.)
Symptoms: Pulse is rapid and races
rather madly (especially in the moon­
light) ; slight fever with occasional
chills and thrills! Increased hearft
beat (this is more noticeable at cer­
tain times and in certain situations);
temperature soars.
Causes: Specific cause is a “certain
party”. The condition is aggravat­
ed by certain general causes such as
dimples, brown eyes, curly hair, (slim
ankles or broad shoulders which ever
the case may be).
Mode of Infection: A tender smile;
slight flutter of an eyelash; a hand­
kerchief dropped rather coyly.
Prevention: This disease is con­
tagious. Of course some persons are
more susceptible than others. The
malady comes on sometimes rather
suddenly, and the only known method
of prevention is to bury oneself ii?

glances.
Treatment: Buy her a chocolate
