Theatre Group Enters Last W e e k O f Rehearsal By RONALD KING The William and Mary Players are now in their final week of rehearsal for William Shakes- peare's "Comedy of Errors," which will be unveiled at Phi Beta Kappa hall on the nights of Mar. 12, 13 and 14. The classic comedy is concerned with the confusion which inevit- ably arises from the existence of two" sets of twins. The .double duet, having been separated at an early age, are totally unacquainted. Each set of twins bears the same names as the other, to add to the complexity of the situation. There is Antipholus of Ephesus and his slave, Dromio. Antipholus of Syracuse has his Dromio, too. The townspeople, as well as the twins, themselves, experience many a mad moment before all this is explained in the final act of the play. Mr. Shakespeare lifted the plot of Plautus' "Menaechmi" for his "Comedy of Errors." The Roman author utilized one set of twins in his comedy, and it remained' for the Bard to create an even more magnificent situation with the addition of a second pair. Shakes- peare discarded some of Plautus' ideas, elaborated on others, and added a few of his own. That the man from Stratford has sur- passed his predecessor is generally acknowledged. On Friday of this week, the Players will hold the first of four dress .rehearsals. Costumes are expected to arrive prior to these grand sessions, so that the costume crews will have an opportunity to make alterations before the Players don their Elizabethan attire. The program for "Comedy of Errors" will be quite distinctive. Pat Jones, a student in the Fine Arts department, has fashioned an intricate wood-cut, and the cover of the program will bear the impression of her work. The advertising postcards, which the Theatre sends to patrons for each play, will also be unusual. Roger Sherman, technician, has delin- eated the shadow "of twins on each card, apropos of the play. Miss Althea Hunt, director of the William and Mary Theatre, has held rehearsals of the entire play every night this week. She has expressed satisfaction at the performance of her Players, but like all directors, refuses to spout superlatives at this point. Roger Sherman is waiting pa- tiently for Vronsky and Babin to sound their last chords. The set is almost entirely completed, and once the piano concert is done, Mr. Sherman and his crews will begin. to erect a replica of an Elizabethan theatre on the Phi Beta Kappa stage. Miss Hunt has received several more notes of acceptance from principals and instructors in vari- ous parts of Virginia. The direc- tor had invited these educators and their students to attend the last performance of "Comedy of Errors." The Theatre, in addition, has received mail orders for blocks oi tickets from several civic and social groups in and around Wil- liamsburg.

Gazette Presents Editorial, Features The Alumni Gazette for March, containing an editorial entitled "What's Wrong With William and Mary?" has been sent to subscri- bers, as announced by Charles P. McCurdy, executive secretary of the Alumni association and editor of the magazine. In the editorial McCurdy at- tributes the crises through which the college has passed in recent years to "lack of good, sound thinking on the part of the Board of Visitors, the administration, the faculty, the students and the alumni." He criticizes the indif- ference of the alumni, the students' attitude toward , college rulings, legislation passed by the Board of Visitors "too frequently without sufficient study or investigation," and concludes with, "Many are the voices of counsel. We need more voices of vision."

Pritchard Recounts Joys Of

Joining The Show

Our Homeless

Band

Whether we realize it or not, the dance band is essential to most of the organized social life on this campus, and right now the band is having trouble even existing. T h e difficulty arises from the lack of place to practice, which is essential to any dance band.

" D U T C H " S C H U L T Z , leader, reports that the college has cooperated to the extent of a two-hour-a-week period in the music

department band room, which, inci­dentally, must suffice, for most of the other musical activities at the college. At no other time is there a place available for the band to get together for practices. This is true

also for any individual practices that members would like to have.

The band is not a recognized part of the music department and any time they do have in the band room is out of the kindness of that department's heart. A L A N C. S T E W A R T has been assisting them, too — also out of the.kindness of his heart.

Early this year the administration was approached on the sub­ject of a place for the dance band to practice. At this time the most logica) place on. campus, i. e., the small cafeteria, was suggested. Nothing has been done" about it. The small cafeteria has all the requirements' for practices: a piano, stage, and a room where instru­ments could be kept. If the cafeteria is to be for student use, why don't we make a start by letting the band members practice there on afternoons when it is' not used for anything else ?

The band has been clamoring for official recognition from the music department, but according to M r . S T E W A R T that would' not alleviate the difficulty since the only available place in the "music building" is in use every afternoon and evening. T h e only solution to the problem must come from the administration if we are to avoid having recorded music at Saturday night dances, and Friday night fraternity and sorority dances.

Again, we say, how about the small cafeteria? ? L. M .

EAT YOUR CARROTS:

In reply to last week's query, "What shall we write, about?" the bunk offered this suggestion. What

about the mouth and skin diseases that are going around campus? So we stuck our heads in on the biology lab yesterday and talked to Miss Blank, college health offi­cer. The answer to our questions is that (although nutritional de­ficiency is not the cause of trench mouth and some of the other mal­adies^ which are prevalent on cam­pus, . such a deficiency tends to open the path for such bacteria to take hold. Moral: Eat three meals a day and make an effort to bal­ance the day's diet. . College stu­dents have a tendency to eat too many starches and not enough pro­teins and green vegetables. Since we have the opportunity to select our own meals, we have to assume the responsibility of feeding our­selves properly. We advocate plenty of green salads and vege­tables and . . . . it may be hard to do . . . . regularity in eating breakfast.

Woolley Points Out Republican

Lack Of Leadership? No less a source than the erudite

New York Herald Tribune has of late been editorializing on the lack of leadership and unity in the Senate's Republican majority. It might seem that the time for critical comment is hardly here but the mistakes have been made.

Two of the most pronounced of Midwestern mediocrities, Senators Brooks of Illinois and Butler of Nebraska have come out for a renewal of the ancient tarriff walls, largely at the behest of Bert Mc-Cormick, a Chicago journalist.

Balking at these proposals, Michi­gan's Senator Vandenberg has ' engendered the made- to-order hatred and scorn ofr. the Chicago Tribune's editorial writers and cartoonists. SENATE SPLIT i

Joe Ball, Republican Senator from Minnesota, is finding it tough sledding despite the heavy winter snows. Back in '44; Ball was a GOP expert on Foreign Affairs and resultingly enraged the Old Guard by supporting a fourth term. Diligently attempting to regain the

To the editor: I wish to call attention to the

editorial entitled "What's Wrong with William and Mary" in the current (March, 1947) issue of the Alumni Gazette. I sincerely believe that EVERY STUDENT, man or woman, veteran or non-veteran, fraternity or non-fratern­ity, should READ THIS EDITOR­IAL, and I mean READ IT, AND TAKE IT TO HEART! !

I believe that this editorial is the most penetrating, understand­ing, critical yet absolutely accurate article that has ever been written about OUR ALMA MATER in modern decades, with all due re­spect for other searching reports published by Presidents Chandler, Bryan or Pomfret. This editorial is CRUEL in its frankness, and yet the status of the College, its pre­sent student body, faculty, admini-' stration, Board of Visitors, and Alumni, is ABSOLUTELY ACCU­RATE. I am informed that the author of the editorial has had access to unimpeachable sources of information, and years of direct experience with the College itself and the Society of the Alumni.

' It is appalling- to me that Wil­liam and Mary, with 14,000 living alumni, could only raise $3,800 in the 1947 Charter Day Gifts fund. Other- colleges, much smaller and less renowned, raise multiples of this figure annually. Why are the William and Mary alumni so Complacent about the needs and interests of Alma Mater, EXCEPT FOR ATHLETICS?

The alumni of a college are loyal to and proud of their Alma Mater only to the extent that they were loyal to and proud of their -Alma Mater WHILE they were UNDER­GRADUATES, on the campus. What makes Yale or Amherst men so proud of their schools, or Vassar

or Smith girls so loyal to theirs? The factor (as I see it) is their happiness and pride in their re­spective schools, which was incul­cated in them WHILE THEY

WERE STUDENTS.

I t is a notorious fact that Vir-i ginia students at William and Mary have a tendency to KNOCK the College whenever it is com­pared with other institutions in the State. I can assert this to be true on the basis of my own observations since I entered the College as a freshman in 1939. On the other hand, most Northern and Western students believe, as I sincerely do, that William and Mary is one of the finest co-edu­cational institutions of its kind in the nation, ranking with such excellent colleges as Swarthmore, Oberlin, Middlebury, Rollins, and others of equal calibre. I also know for a fact (again based on personal knowledge) that, when I was in attendance at two other large universities (one in the "Ivy League," the other a Western state university), students and professors always told me what a fine school the considered Wil­liam and Mary to be.

I sincerely wish there was more effort to ingrain a sense of pride in the students of William and Mary.* True, the College has had many glaring difficulties, as to its postwar student-body, fraternities, faculty salaries ahd dissatisfaction, and big-time football and its prob­lems. I think that if everyone would try to minimize these in­ternal schisms and concentrate on building a modern academic tra­dition as great as William and Mary's ancient academic traditions, amazing progress could be achiev­ed in a relatively short period of time. , '

good graces, Ball has attacked Labor in such forceful manner as to become the favorite son of the N. A. M. On Ball's program, how­ever, a major split has developed in the Senate. Taft has broken with the Mnnesotan. Responsi­bility for labor legislation is shiftr ing to the more able hands of N.

INSURGENT BLOC -

Only important Republican to gain prestige of late is Vandenberg. Others who are realizing the quali­ties and virtues of statesmanship are New Englanders Aiken, Tobey, Lodge and Saltonstall, and far-westerner Morse. These along with freshman Cooper of Ken­tucky, Flanders of Vermont and Ives, plus longtime maverick Lan-ger of North Dakota, may form an insurgent bloc to further

• harass the legislation of Taft, Wherry and White.

Such a unity would strengthen the hand of possible presidential nominee Leverett Saltonstall. A longtime public servant of the highest calibre, Saltonstall would swing heavy labor and independ-ant vote in the Republican column. With a legislative and executive background that sets him ahead of, some of the more publicized GOP possibilities, Saltonstall possesses the often overlooked qualities of humanitarianism and courage that are so lacking in the would-be statesmen of the day.

Letter Urges Students Show

Consideration For Laundry To The Editor:

Quite a lot of criticism has been directed by students around and about the campus toward the col­lege laundry. The criticism has reached its unkindest height in the feature by Fletcher. Cox, in which he takes very obvious digs at everything and everyone connect­ed with the laundry.

Had Mr. Cox confined his criti­cism to machinery, and had not involved personalities, it would undoubtedly have been fairly pas­sable. Hbwever, his extreme lack of tact! in calling the sorters "Ten­

nessee Maulers" was regrettable, to say the least. "Obviously, these sorters"are neither from Tennessee nor are they maulers.

These people whom Mr. Cox slammed so mercilessly in his fea­ture are doing a magnificent job of handling the laundry for 1700 students in a> building and with machinery adequate only for the servicing of 1200 students. They are justifiably proud of this fact.

Buttons torn from shirts cannot be traced to the employees of the laundry. To the contrary, the fault lies in the machinery which,

although designed for the work which it is performing, seems to contain inherent flaws which are impossible to overcome. Laying the wholesale buttons-ripping at the feet of the operators of the machines is juvenile and incon­siderate.

I hope that this explains the laundry's dilemma clearly enough so that other would-be humorists will not stoop to casting aspersions upon the perspicacity of the laun­dry employees.

Sincerely, Name Withheld by Request.

Robert Louis Stevenson's classic short story, Markheim, for, radio presentation, and will direct and produce his adaptation for Radio club's weekly broadcast over Sta­tion WRNL, on Friday, Mar. 7.

Markheim, a powerful treatise of man's internal struggle, is especially suited for radio per­formance. Clint assisted-by Laurie Pritchard, has not yet selected the six members of the cast, or the announcer. Music for the broadcast will be directed by Helen Fisher.

Last Friday- night, the Radio club presented the Four Braves, local vocal quartet, in a program of popular songs. The Braves, who are Joe Brinkley, Ollie Amon, Bill Hux and Bill Williams, sang eight numbers. Ace Livick an­nounced the show, with Ronald King in charge of production. John Daly flipped the dials in the engineer's booth.

Auditions were held last week for students who are interested in participating in the weekly broad­cast. The auditions committee of the Radio club has announced that it will hold another such session in the near future for those who were unable to attend last week's try-outs.

Indians To Meet Wake Forest Here Official Schedule Lists live Home Encounters

William and Mary will face Wake Forest in Williamsburg next Fall, Athletic Director R. N. McCray announced yesterday as he released the official 1947 football schedule.

This was the last playing site which had to be selected after last week's announcement which stated that the V. M. I. game would take place at Cary Field, with the Washington and Lee contest scheduled for Roanoke.

Five Home Games The decision means that five, of the Indians' engagements will

be played in Williamsburg, giving William and Mary students prob­ably the best home slate in. Tribe history. In addition to the Dea­cons and Keydets, North Carolina, Miami of Ohio and The Citadel •will appear here.

The Braves will meet three foes in nearby cities, going to Norfolk for the Davidson tilt and facing Virginia Tech and Richmond in Richmond.

The Indian gridders will leave "Virginia only when they journey to Boston on Oct. 25 to engage

.. Boston University in the first of a two-game series. The second contest is set for 1948.

Originally scheduled for Friday night, Sept. 26, the Davidson game has been switched to Saturday afternoon, thus leaving the Tribe without any night contests.

6,000 More Seats Since such an inviting home

slate has been planned, McCray said that arrangements have been made to enlarge Cary Stadium. Six thousand permanent type bleachers will be installed directly behind the end zones.

"These seats will be so located that each will provide an advan­tageous view," McCray said. "We have checked fully into various types of bleachers and have ar­ranged to buy-the best available."

Miami of Ohio, coached by Sid Gillman, former Ohio State end, appears on the Braves' schedule for the first time. Wake Forest has not been faced in football since 1928, when the Tribe and the Deacons fought to a scoreless deadlock. Three other games have

Braves Give Net Exhibition

Indoor tennis practice is now in its fourth week. Bad weather has kept the netters in Blow Gym beyond the expected time and with less than a month to go before the first match, the Braves have yet to hit the first ball on clay.

Last week's activities were fea­tured by an exhibition given at Camp Lee by the three top-rank­ing Indian stars. In a one-set singles encounter, Garner Larned trimmed Fred Kovaleski, 6-4. Following this match Tut Bartzen and Kovaleski teamed to defeat Larned and Pvt. Tom Molloy, Camp Lee's high-ranking southern netter, 6-3, 6-4. The exhibition was played in the Camp Lee armory with the tempature hover­ing around 30 degrees F. Despite the cold, the boys played good tennis and entertained the shiver­ing audience.

Indoor Tourney After the exhibition, Kovaleski

left for New York to compete in the National Indoor Tennis Tourn­ament. Among the entrants in this tourney are Jack Kramer, Bill Talbert, Don McNeill and other first tenner's. Although he wasn't seeded, Kovaleski was placed in the first eight in. the draw by virtue of his No. 21 national ranking.

TRIBE T O P I C S By ED GRIFFIN

The long-delayed 1947 football schedule has finally appeared and seems to be one of the best prepared by William and Mary athletic officials in quite some time.

There are five home contests and these include two which promise to be the best of the season, the meetings with North Caro­lina and Wake Forest. Both are high-ranking outfits and can hold their own with most of the nation's best elewns.

This year's slate, like the 1946 card, lists eight Southern Con­ference foes but the '47 group is stronger. Wake Forest amd David­son replace Maryland and George Washington. The Deacons are much superior to Maryland, while Davidson, though not very strong, should at least be better than the impotent Colonials.

The strengthening of the slate indicates a step in the right direc­tion. No team' should be stronger than its schedule. Every opponent played ought to be able to furnish a good brand of com­petition. An excellent move for 1948, if it is possible, would be to drop such relatively weak foes as Davidson and Citadel, replacing them with Duke and North Carolina State.

Knute Rockne, who tutined out some of the finest teams in history, used to warn against the practice of playing Ibrealjhlers^ games scheduled against inferior opponents with the object oif resting one's own team. The coach who does this has everything to lose and nothing to gain. If one of these set-ups manages to pull jani upset, the team it defeats suffers an immense loss of prestige and also a loss of cash customers.

Even if a team tramples its weaker enemy, the lack of compe­tition may throw its attack so far off that two or three weeks will be needed to repair it. And during this period a team's major rivals can benefit by this letdown.

But we seem to have digressed. The other three home games list Citadel, V. M. I. and Miami of Ohio. The first two shouldn't prove too troublesome but Coach Sid Gillman, of the Redskins will bring to town a strong club, one of the best in the Buckeye Conference.

There will be two games in Richmond and one in Norfolk so the Indians will have nearly the equivalent of eight home contests. There will be few colleges which can offer such a program to its students.

One of the most wonderful features of this schedule is the See TRIBE TOPICS, Page 5

DICK GALLAGHER

Gallagher Named Diamond Mentor

Dick Gallagher, director of the Tribe's basketball fortunes, yester­day was named coach of the William and Mary baseball team.

Practice began this afternoon for the Indians who will be seek­ing to defend successfully their Big Six title during the coming season.

First Appearance Gallagher joined the coaching

staff in 1940, serving as intramural director and freshman basketball mentor. His Papooses -of 1941 romped through an undefeated season in '41 gaining 14 victories.

He entered" the Navy in 1942, serving for three' years and attain­ing the rank of lieutenant-com­mander. After his discharge in 1945, Gallagher, a native of Iron-ton, O., returned to William and Mary as head track coach and assistant to R. N. McCray in foot­ball.

Succeeds Holt In taking over the management

of the Tri-Color nine, he succeeds S. B. (Frosty) Holt who was here on a year's leave of absence from Carson-Newman College, of Ten­nessee.

An outstanding infielder at Kentucky Wesleyan, Gallagher was graduated in 1931 and entered p r o f e s s i o n a l baseball, holding down second base for Charleroi, Pa., of the Class C Middle-Atlantic league. He was slated to play for Lincoln, Neb., of the Nebraska State league during the following year but suffered a fractured leg early in the season and gave up baseball, going into coaching in­stead.

Redmen Blast Comets In Final Game, 58-37

William and Mary's unpredictable Indians turned on the power against the strong Washington and Lee Comets to rout them, 58-37, in a contest played at Blow Gym Saturday night.

The two teams matched point for point for 15 breathless minutes; then the big five for the night, Charley Teach, Johnny Green, Chet Giermak, Buddy Lex and Bob Holley began really to click. After George Pierson, the Comet standout , put W&L into the lead, 18-16, the Tribesmen put in 11 straight points to take the lead, a lead they

held througout the game. The

Kovaleski Gains In Net Tourney-

Fred Kovaleski, one of the stars of the Indian net squad, chalked up two victories last week end in the National Indoor tennis tourney now being held in New York and was slated to play his third-round match today.

Kovaleski defeated Robert A. Arnold in straight sets on Thurs­day, by scores of 7-5, 6-2. On Friday he was extended by Marvin Kent but came out with a 6-4, 4-6, 6-3 triumph. Kovaleski and Phil Hanna made a good showing against Jack Kramer and Bob F a l k e n b u r g in a first-round doubles engagement .on Saturday before bowing, 9-7, 6-4.

Lack of practice hurt Betty Coumbe, one of the mainstays of the W&M co-ed squad, as she lost to Mrs., Mary Jane Donally, 6-1, 6-0, in the first round of women's play on Saturday.,

Kovaleski, in reaching the round of 16, joined a select company which includes Kramer, Falken­burg, Bill Talbert, Frank Shields, Ladislav Hecht and J, Gilbert Hall.

All Irackmen

lo See Power Coach Tom Power has announc­

ed that there will be a meeting Wednesday, Mar. 5 at 2 p. m. in the Blow Gym for all those men who are interested in taking -part in varsity track and field events this year. Everyone interested in track is urged to report, as well as those men who were present at the first meeting.

52 Show Interest During this last week 52 men

signed up for practice. No spec­ialized practice has started yet; the emphasis has been placed on conditioning and running.

Some of the men who have been practicing individually for several weeks are Clarence "Rocket" Roy who runs the 880 yard dash, Frank' and Albert Rosenfeld and Francis McFall. Some promising new comers are Mac Staszeski, Colin Macbonald, a low hurdles runner and Bernie Ricket. John Brown and Harry Wenning two of last year's stars will also be on hand. Brown took part in the high and broad jump, the pole vault and the dash; Wen­ning was last year's Southern Con­ference champion in the javelin throw.

Second-Half Spurt The Braves went literally crazy

in the second half. They held the Comets, who have scored over 100 points in a game twice this year, to 11 points, while they were amassing- a total of 29.

A standout for the Tribe could­n't be picked, they were all good. Green and Lex checked the high scoring forwards, while Teach, Holley and Giermak controlled the backboards. On the offensive Holley set up innumerable plays, Lex's long set shots clicked, Teach was excellent under the basket and Giermak, as usual, was the high scorer with 20 points.

Squaws Drop Two Matches To Farmville. R.P.L Teams

Showing only spurts of clever or skillful playing, the William and Mary Squaws dropped their fourth and fifth consecutive matches to Farmville and Richmond Division. The games were played in Jeffer­son gym last week.

Farmville sent the Tri-Color coeds down to' a 23-5 defeat. The visitors were behind at only one point of the game. This was at the beginning of the initial quarter when Millie Riddle, who did all the scoring for William and Mary, sank a free shot to put the Squaws ahead 1-0. Midway in the half, she added an overhead goal to her record.

Hancer Leads Scoring Ann Hancer sent the Farmville

girls ahead a little later with a long set shot. Parish sank a chari­ty toss and Hancer added another

two markers to push the score to-5-2 for the visitors.

Farmville forwards divided the honors in the half, with Hancer, high scorer for the evening, lead­ing the way with six points. At the half the score stood 13.-3, Farmville.

In the second half, Farmville

accounted for ten more points to bring its total to 23. Riddle man­aged to eke out another set shot to give both her and the team their five point total.

R. P . I. Wins In the game against R. P. I., the

Tri-Color squad met defeat 31-24. Led by Gene Layne and Fran Allen, the Richmonders took an early 6-0 lead and maintained it thereafter.

Bouncing back from a 12-3 quarter time score, the William and Mary guards held a tight defense, allowing only two goals to be scored. The forwards settled down finally, and Jimmie Murphy led the parade with two set shots. Elaine Passow added two more and Jerry Jerow ended the rally with a two pointer. At halftime, the score looked a" little better, 18-11.

Layne ran rampant in the sec­ond half, sinking five goals and adding a charity shot. Passow led the Squaws with eight points; with Murphy and Riddle each contributing two points apiece.

Future Tilts This weekend the Squaws travel

north for their last ' two contests. On Friday, Mar. 7, they will en­gage N. Y. U.; on the following day, they will meet the team from Manhattanville College.

Thus far the Squaws have had a very unsuccessful season, losing six games and winning none. Marked improvement in shooting and in working together should give the Tri-Color sextet a better chance to place some digits in its win column.

Chet Giermak Makes All-State Squad Notre Dame Ekes Out Victory Over Squaws

A last minute lay-up goal by Naomi Hromadka gave the Notre Dame sextet a close 18-16 victory over the William and Mary Squaws last Saturday afternoon in Jefferson gym.

Holding the lead until the last four minutes of the game, the Tri­color combined a strong defense with a sparking forward trio. Elaine Passow gave the Squaws a 4-0 lead with a set shot followed by a neat lay-up goal. Rose Monaghan sank an overarm two-pointer for Notre Dame, which was promptly nullified by another lay-up shot by Millie Riddle.

Passow and Jimmie Murphy each contributed two more points in the first quarter to the Tri­color cause. Monaghan worked her way through the home team's defense to lay up another two points, while Hromadka scored her first goal of the day on a long shot.

Tight guarding on the part of both teams kept the scoring down to two points for each squad in the second quarter. Both defenses

Second Half Rally In the second half, the Balti­

more squad varied, its • shots and collected five goals. Working against an even tighter Notre Dame defense, the Tri-Color for­wards could gather only four points.

Monaghan led the scoring for Notre Dame, sending in three goals in succession, good for six points.. The last of these tallies came in the beginning of the fourth quar­ter and tied up the game at 14-14.

Last Minute Goal Hromadka then sent a timely

shot through the hoops to send Notre Dame into the lead for the first time, 16-14._Two more points by Riddle tied up the score again, but the last minute lay-up shot by Hromadka closed the scoring and gave the visitors their 18-16 vic­tory.

Sigma Pi, one of the pre-season favorites and still a definite threat, knocked Sigma Alpha Ep-silon from the ranks of the unbea­ten in the intramural basketball league by edging them out, 34-33. Anderson, dropping in six field goals and an equal number of charity tosses, sparked Sigma Pi throughout the contest.

Despite an early-season loss to Smart Boys, Old Dominion "B", by virtue of beating Go-Getters, is considered one of the top teams in the Independent Division. John Boyer, who the week before tallied 29 markers in a single game, again led his team's attack by scoring 10 points in a 25-19 win.

Harner and Crockett Get Two Positions For W&L

Chet Giermak, William and Mary's crack freshman center, was placed on the All-State basketball squad released Sunday by the Asso­ciated Press. Johnny Jorgensen and Charlie Teach received honorable mention in the balloting for the forward positions.

Giermak scored 366 points for the Indians as he led them to 14 victories in 26 starts, averaging slightly over 14 markers per game.

Alpha ChVs Gain Finals

By JIMMIE MURPHY

Alpha Chi, winner in League B, will play Kappa~ Thursday, for the intramural championship, provided the latter defeats Chi O. If Kappa loses they will be involved in a three-way tie with Chi O and Gamma Phi.

Alpha Chi sewed up first place in League B by thumping Pi Phi, 30-23. Ellett, Coumbe Inc. again scored all of Alpha Chi's points registering 16 and 14 points re­spectively. Bev Owens kept Pi Phi in the fray by tallying 12 markers.

Chi O Upset

Seemingly out of the title race, Gamma Phi scored the upset of the season by knocking Chi Omega from the undefeated ranks by the score of 26-23. Led by little Mar­tha Lamborn, the Gamma Phi's gained the advantage in the begin­ning and kept the Chi O's battling up-hill throughout the whole game. Jane Oblender continued to score and racked up 18 points before she was put out of the game on fouls. Fouling constantly from the starting whistle, Chi O played the last few minutes with only five players on the court.

Kappa remained the only unde­feated team in League A by de­cisively trouncing Kappa Delta, 31-5. Millie Riddle led Kappa with 15 points but her team will lose her for the rest of the season

the forward slots while Reggie Crockett, W&L center, gained the other .

Louis (Weenie) Miller, mainstay of the University of Richmond squad, and Chuck Noe, Virginia's ace, took over the guard positions. Noe is the only member of last year's team who was able to re ­peat.

CHET GIERMAK

Harner and Crockett combined to score more than one-third of the Generals' total points, while Miller and Noe were captains and pacesetters of the Spiders and Cavaliers, respectively.

absence of any two-bit service teams. Gone for good, we hope, are the days of such foes as Fort McClellan and the Richmond Army Air Base. They did the best they could but lack of experienced men and time to practice prevented them from exhibiting any sort of competition. It was a shame to charge admission. ,

Things seem to be looking up, however, and maybe before many years have passed if the school continues to expand, William and Mary .will move into the front ranks of intercollegiate football. ODDS AND ENDS

- At last they've done it. W&M students will be privileged, to take their pick of three sports events on Apr. 2. The Tribe will meet Dartmouth on that day in baseball, tennis and track. Only drawback is that students will be so busy leaving for spring vaca­tion that they won't pay much attention to athletics . . . Shutouts in basketball are rare. In fact, they're practically non-existant, except in sorority play where anything can happen. Chi Omega's second team demonstrated this last week when they walloped Gamma Phi, 60-0 . . . Another X and horseshoe story: Ease, our athletic boss, boasts proudly that her Chi O third team is undisputed champ­ion of their league, reason being that no other sorority has a third team . . . Fletcher Cox, who now washes his own shirts since the laundry swore vengeance for his recent feature, claims his Theta Delt squad had a rough time in a recent intramural fracas. Said Fletch, " If every foul committed by the two teams had been called, we'd be playing now" . . . Bill Pegram, undisputed pool champion of Taliaferro's A section, stated after a particularly satisfactory session at Jim's Emporium last Friday, "I think they ought to give letters for this."

For those who expect two hun­dred words of gripes to follow, let, them be reassured. This col­umn will not throw raspberries at anyone this week . . . we like a change-too, you see.

It was quite gratifying (heckl it was terrific!) to see so many stu­dents cheering the basketball game last Friday evening. Despite the gruesome fact that the Squaws met with an overwhelming 23-5 defeat, the game served to prove that there is an interest in coed sports.

Male Interest Much of the audience was com­

posed of male students. Whether they came out of interest, curiosity or just plain nothing else to do, they were welcome sights. To show our gratitude for their pre­sence, the team would like to inform them that Farmville's ace forward — the infamous number Two — can and did smile. After all, she had reson enough to — she was high scorer for the evening.

The game with Notre Dame the following day showed for the first time that the Squaws can work together. Losing the tilt in the last minute was a heart-breaker. The game might easily have been saved if the team had not lost all semblance of calmness and assurance. The Squaws should have won; they threw away their own game.

Final Games This weekend, the team travels

north for its final games. The members will take with them the bitter lesson learned last Saturday. All along they have had the spirit; now they seem to have the skill. Let's hope the two combine to bring the Squaws victories in their final matches.

By JANE OBLENDER

Student head of varsity basket­ball is vivacious, charming Lois Willis. She was promoted to this office after having served as head of intramurals in her sophomore year.

"I never, did managerial work and never expected to," said Lois with a toss o t h e r head, "but, here I am."

Her obligations to the "Bill and Mary" girls' varsity team started last September when she began corresponding with other schools to schedule games. Her main job is trying to secure rooms for visit­ing teams.

Of favorite duties, there is ac­companying the varsity members on trips to other schools and being called chaperone. Lois gets a big kick out of entertaining bus drivers on these trips by taking them to dinner.

Tucking people into bed and making sure the lights are out befoije midnight is one of her minor pleasures.

"I enjoy managing teams," said Lois, "but when the players rise against me and chase me all over the John Marshall Hotel in Rich­mond yelling 'mother,' It's time to resign."

Training rules officially went into effect in December, while var­sity playing began Feb. 8. Lois states that the team has good spirit and will fight on to the end.

Seven of Leighton's field goals came in succession in the second half. With about eight minutes left to go, Boston led by only 42-j38 but their ace forward soon increased the margin to 18 points and erased . the last hope of the Indians.

Chet Giermak, the Tribe's out' standing candidate for All-State honors, was top man for the visi­tors with 14 markers. Bob Holley and Charlie Teach collected ten and nine, respectively.

Aspiring Amateur Jockeys By FLETCHER COX

Throughout the winter months, the only outdoor sport carried on by a few of the old school of Prussian die-hards has been jock­eying. To the more frivolous element on the campus, this may seem to be a waste of time during the winter months when women make such a point of concealing all but face, arms and legs under coats of all colors, shapes and sizes. There is more truth than poetry in such an observation — what, then, has encouraged such devotion to duty?

From one of the jockeys, it was ascertained that the only ones who were to be found on the corner these cold days were the profes­sionals, as opposed to the ama­teurs who rnerely make juvenile attempts at jockeying when the weather permits. It was from one of the professionals that it was learned that there is a science to the art of jockeying, much as there is a science to almost everything else under the sun.

Aspirants Discouraged Not all who aspire to the heights

may be jockeys. The first stipu­lation is that the jockey be inof­fensive in his admirations of the fair sex. That is to say, his whistle must be cultivated to the point where it will not offend the object. Secondly, the eyes must be trained

in the science of jockeying. Ama­teurs merely ogle at each woman in a bevy which may be passing at the time — a quick once over. The trained professional immedi­ately picks out the most pleasing specimen, and dwells a t great length upon the chosen one, ne­glecting all others in favor thereof. In this operation, the carefully trained eye never allows itself to deviate from the mission of admir­ing the wonders of nature.

Winter Training-Therein lies the secret of the

apparent futility of the profes­sionals' adhering to College Cor­ner in spite of the winter winds whipping up and down the Duke of Gloucester Street. The eye must be kept trim. Passing ob­jects must be ogled throughout the year, so that, when the spring comes, the retina of the orb will be in a receptive state, and valu­able time will not be lost in the attempts to re-train the muscles which control the eyes. "Side vision" must be supervised, a sit­uation which may easily slip out of control. Constant care must be taken of the eyes to insure that "side vision" is cut off completely during the periods of active jock­eying. Some professionals can keep their "side vision" dormant for several hours at a time — the

Soon To Release

Williamsburs Film The United States Department

of State will soon distribute the color movie "Eighteenth Century Life in Williamsburg, Virginia" throughout the world as a part of its cultural and informational pro­gram, according to Edward P. Alexander, director of education for Colonial Williamsburg.

Already seen by more than 1,500,000 Americans, the four-reel movie depicts a typical day in the life of an 18th century craftsman. It was filmed in Williamsburg in 1942-43 by the Eastman Kodak Company with many present-day residents of this city taking the roles of colonial inhabitants.

Foreign Language Versions

Sixty prints of the film will be made available to the State De­partment, and from these more than 15 foreign language versions will be made and distributed throughout the world. An audi­ence of over 7 million see the film programs sponsored by the De­partment each month.

A hundred prints of the film were purchased by Colonial Wil­liamsburg after its completion, and made available through the Eastman offices in Rochester for distribution on loan to schools, colleges, museums, clubs and study groups. The movie is shown here regularly three nights a week as part of the program of special events presented for visitors.

Dr. Alexander will also show the film in connection with his lecture before the New York Historical Society, meeting in New York City on Mar. 4.

As Commerce Head Dr. Charles F. Marsh, professor

In describing his duties, Dr. Marsh read the purpose of the United States Chamber of Commerce, "Men, working together, to make their community a better place to live and make a living." It is Dr. Marsh's hope that the Wil­liamsburg Chamber of Commerce will attempt to live up to that definition.

record being 2:21.5, held by Esky, every jockey's idol — and no pro­fessional would stoop to jockeying when his "side vision" is in opera­tion, thereby distracting the mind.

As in most other trades, the professional jockey must have his own equipment, over which he hovers as an anxious mother. His eye-cup is usually of agate — only amateurs have been known to use common glass eye-cups — and is hand engraved with his initials. True devotees notch their eye-cups for every mission accomplished. Ordinary eye-wash, bottled by pharmaceutical houses, will not suit the professional. Even as the pipe smoker, the professional blends his own eye-wash, mixing into the basic ingredient of super-refined boric acid, myriads of waters, lotions and powders. Pro­fessionals guard their formulae with a jealosy over which many women would swoon were it only directed toward them.

AUSO Represented

Naturally, old professional jock­eys keep their trade secrets to themselves in efforts to stave off invasion by amateurs. Unions of professionals have been formed, the most famous being Amalga­mated Union of Skilled Oglers, of which Local 49 has been active in Williamsburg.

Tryouts for the Local will be held during the first week in April, on Jockey Corner. "All who are interested in joining, and who can certify to at least five years of past experience, are urged to apply," stated Cfeorge Herkimer, head of local 49, who flexed his coronae while speaking. "However," he continued, "I cannot hold forth much hope for most of the ama­teurs whom I have seen on the corners here. Too much frivolity — too many amateurs forsaking the art in favor of settling down to one woman. A deplorable situ­ation." Prospective applicants have been warned by Mr. Herkimer to be careful of the dust which is being raised by the winds on the campus and in the town. "One speck of dust, in the wrong place," he claimed, " could very easily cause the temporary inactivity of the pupil of the eye; and, since most jockeys are highly sensitive, this could only result in t their disqualification from this year's tryouts."

Wally Heatwole

Holds Record As Basketball Winner By JOHN ROTHERT

This is Wallace Roy Heatwole, the "five by five" super politician, business "ad" major, member of ODK, the Fraternity Association, the Student Voice Committee, president of Pi Kappa Alpha, and believer in a 90 per cent social life.

Interviewing Wally is actually a simple feat. Merely question 27 people who have just seen him "a few rriinutes ago," then pursue him 13 laps around the indoor track, lose him in clouds of steam in the shower and, after fighting your way through 23 Pi K A's and at least one representative from every other organization on cam­pus, finally push him into a phone booth and sit on his lap, which should give you at least 60 seconds for uninterrupted conversation.

Wally, born in Waynesboro, Va., entered William and Mary'in 1941 as a sophomore transfer from the University of Virginia. In his first year spent his time, playing base­ball and being assistant Sports editor of The FLAT HAT and assistant manager of basketball. In his junior year he contented himself with "being varsity mana­ger of baseball ,and basketball, sports editor of The FLAT HAT, sports advisor to the Colonial Echo,

and writing a column entitled "Pow-wow with Wally." In his spare time he-served as the Asso­ciated press sports representative

on the campus. When the Japan­ese started the little unpleasant­ness, Wally joined the Navy and was commissioned an ensign at the Columbia Midshipman's school',

beginning a career in which he "put more time in as an ensign than any other guy in the Navy." Finally ending up in a Fleet Marine Unit, Scouts and Raiders, he participated in several inva­sions, such as the little skirmish at Okinawa, and was discharged Aug. 15, 1945, a lieutenant j . g., having collected a Presidential Let­ter of Commendation, a Presi­dential Citation, and seven battle stars.

Scourge of W & L The history of the game of

basketball will forever ring with the name Heatwole. He occupies the unique position of having been the only non-player ever to win a game without getting on the court. It all happened back in 1943 in a little game at Lexington. William and Mary and Washington and Lee were staging the sort of game that causes prostration among the spectators. The score was tied, with only seconds to play. Then, Lester Hooker, W&M ace, got a foul shot. Pandemon­ium reigned and crowds surged up in front of the three official

-scorers, one of whom was manager Heatwole.

Hearing ,a mighty roar, Heatwole peeped between the knees of a nine-foot mountaineer just in time to see the net still quivering. So, having complete confidence in Hooker's ability, he jmmediately marked down a point for William and Mary, which went unques­tioned by the other score keepers who had seen nothing. The game, since Hooker had actually missed his shot, ended in what everyone but Wally thought was a tie. But the point had been entered in the official record book and could not be changed, so Heatwole scored a victory for William and Mary. He left the W&L campus under armed guard and, needless to say, has never returned.

Wally, intent upon trying to be "the oldest living student on cam­pus," plans on entering the Wil­liam and Mary Law School upon graduation. Those who know Wally Heatwole, those who have heard him speak, whether in stu­dent mass meetings, broadcasting football games, or in bull sessions, have no doubt that he will succeed in any field he chooses.

Honor Committee

To A id Freshmen In an attempt to make the Honor

System better understood by entering freshmen, the Honor councils of the college have begun a program to encourage develop­ment of Honor systems in Virginia high schools.

Letters have been written to principals of Class A and Class B high schools in Virginia, inquiring whether an honor system now exists in each school and whether the school is interested in instal­ling or fostering one.

was also "one of the boys." A sturdy six-footer, he looked quite youthful in his tan sport attire, complemented by a daring red and blue bow tie.

Vronsky and Babin were both born in Russia; he in Moscow, she in the southern Crimea. "Vitya^is rebel, and I am a damyankee," ex­plained Mr. B.

They met in Berlin, were mar­ried in London, and, after coming to America, became citizens. One

can detect ia slight Russian accent, although they have mastered the English language.

Army Career Victor Babin's career in the

Army is quite a story in itself. His talented hands, which move so deftly over the keyboard, were used to mix batter and to pummel dough, as a lackey in a quarter­master bakery at Camp Lee, Va. Soon he was transferred to a band-training unit, later going over to General Arnold's famed air force band as pianist..

This year's tour' is the first since his discharge from the service. Last week, the team of Vronsky and Babin celebrated the tenth anniversary of their annual con­cert tours.

i Greatest Tour "Incidentally," pointed out Mr.

Babin, "ours is the greatest tour ever booked for a piano team. The concert at William and Mary is the fifty-eighth of seventy-eight sche­duled appearances this season, ah unprecedented number."

Vronsky, mission completed, r e ­turned to the scene. Seeking one ray of sunshine, your reporter ask­ed her opinion of .Williamsburg.

"Very nice," retorted the lady virtuoso. "It's like-a museum, and the people in it, museum pieces." (It is lioped that she referred to the costumed employees of the Restoration.)

With the concert only three hours off, Vronsky and Babin felt the need of xest, and asked to be excused. As the pair walked to­ward the Phi Bete portals, Victor Babin called back, "I'm afraid you haven't had much of an inter­view."

The reporter wondered.

Raymond Massey

Visits Restoration Recent visitors to the Colonial,

Capitol, were the famed "Lincoln of the films," Raymond Massey, and his wife.

The news of their arrival at the Inn caused considerable confusion at The FLAT HAT office, and two reporters were sent scurrying down to interview the notable. After several unsuccessful at­tempts to corner the stage and screen star, the reporters returned frustrated and empty handed.

However, a student waiter at the Travis House, Owen Elliot, talked to Mr. Massey, and dis­covered that he was here for the week end, but was returning to New York City Mar. 1, for a broadcast. According to Owen, Mr. Massey and his wife were investigating the possibilities of enrolling their daughter in William and Mary. Their daughter is now a student at Concord Academy, (Concord, Mass.

The two reporters talked to Mr. Massey briefly, but only before he took his tour of Williamsburg. Therefore, it was impossible for the film star to make any com­ments on Williamsburg or the Col­lege, as this was his first visit to the historic town. He will r e ­turn to Williamsburg on Mar. 8, to meet his wife, who will remain here this week, and then the couple will return to their home in New York City.

Eta Sigma Phi Plans

scene of the first post-war national convention of Eta Sigma Phi. Scheduled for Apr. 3 and 4, the convention will be held in Phi Beta Kappa hall. •
