FAR 10W1 SENIORS 19, Commencement for the class of 1933 will be- Jui
less than one month from today. The term, commencement, really means beginning, and for those members of the class of 1933, June 19 will mark the beginning of their active careers in tin is. outer world of ours.
For four years they have been active in the student affairs of Stale college, all the time maintaining their regular scholastic standings. For three years they steadily pushed their way up into the public eye of the student body and faculty. Last June they became seniors—leaders of the College. Throughout this year, the class of 1933 has ranked first in the pristine of the College, not alone on account of its seniority.
Soon it will he necessary for each senior to bid farewell to the much loved College scenes and friends. Soon it will be necessary for the underclas.sinen to clasp each senior hand in friendship for the last time.
Glad we are that the seniors have done their work here so well, that they have made so many friends among those of us who are remaining, and that many of them are going out into the kind of work they want to do. We are sorry to have them go, for we realize that 1933 has left vacant many places that will be hard for us to lill adequately.
The four years which the seniors have spent lure have truly been a training for that commencement tin- assumption of new duties in the field of education on the broad highways of life. The ability to adapt themselves to new situations and experiences which the) have shown here, as well as the steadiness of their primary purpose in coining here, all make us confident that their future life will continue in the successful course which has so characterized the four-year term here.
CONGRATULATIONS The advanced dramatics class presentation, "Street
Scene," on Tuesday was certainly one of the most dillictilt plays ever to be produced on Slate's stage. It was a stupendous undertaking, and it proved a success.
Especially were the sets to be commended, They showed a great deal of care and time spent in preparing them. The details of the play, the noises of the street, the properties, and especially the ill-conditioned dog were excellent. The advance dramatics class has undertaken a big piece of work and is to be congratulated upon its success.
OUR PRESIDENT Dr. A. R. Brubachcr, president, has recently suffered
a breakdown, and will be unable to return to official duties until next September. This has been the first time in years that the president of the College has not been present for the annual Moving-Up Day ceremonies.
Dr. Brubachcr will also be unable to preside at graduation this June. He has expressed his regret at his inability to present the diplomas at this time.
The members of the student association sincerely hope that Dr. Brubacher will rapidly regain his health and be able to come back with renewed strength.
MUST THIS CONTINUE? Recently a member of the faculty of this College,
while taking a shower in the men's locker room of Draper hall, was robbed of a small sum of money. It seems that he had left his clothing in the locker room for but a few minutes; when he returned, he discovered money, papers, and the general contents of his pockets gone. This is not the first time that money, or articles of clothing, have been deliberately stolen from the locker rooms.
Nor do the clever clcptomaniacs confine their activities to money alone. Miss Fay reports many books missing from the College Co-operative Hook Store loan shelves. Over a hundred have been taken from Hawley library. The articles posted on the lost bulletin board are too numerous to mention. Certainly books, pens, glasses, or pocket-books did not grow legs and walk away by themselves.
What is the answer? Someone in State college (probably more than one) is dishonest enough to take articles which do not belong to him. True enough these are hard times—but the times are harder for the one who has to stand the loss than the one who is the temporary winner. It is now toward the latter part of the year. The majority of students here, if ever, are now on rock bottom as far as finances are concerned. To lose some valuable article, books, money, means a definite hole in the budget as well as a definite loss and privation.
Outgoing Myskania Selects Tbirteen Juniors As 1934 Members at Moving-Up Day Ceremonies
Continuing a precedent innovated in 1930 and observed last year, the retiring Myskania tapped the new Myskania in reverse alphabetical order at the climax of the annual Moving-Up Day ceremonies Fr iday in Page hall. Thirteen members of the junior class were selected for membership in the senior honorary society, which numbered eleven members this year. Twice before, in 1928-29 and in 1929-30, have there been thir teen members on Myskania. The 1927-28 and 1930-31 groups consisted of twelve members .
Helen Cromic began the selection of new members by tapping T h e l m a Haviland Smith. Ten more juniors were selected. Miss Cromie then relieved the tenseness by proceeding to announce Jean Craigmile as the twelfth member. Gilbert De Laura completed the new Myskania by tapping Roger WjjJHams Bancroft.
The members of the 1933-34 Myskania in the order in which they were tapped a rc :
GRADUATES ORGANIZE Yesterday marked the first social event of the graduate
students of State college. Throughout the entire year individual members of this group have seen the need of formation into some definite organization. Until now nothing has been done about it.
Last night, in the gymnasium of Hawley hall, the graduate students conducted an informal party. It was very well attended, and all of those who attended seemingly enjoyed themselves. It is to be wondered at that this group has not before conducted some sort of a social function.
At State college, it would seem that the graduate students are entirely out of the picture. All of the classes here have class meetings, parties, dances, dinners. Nearly every department has its club and its social functions. Because so many of the graduate students are confining their studies to education and graduate courses, very few, if any, are given the opportunity to join in any social organization of the College.
Graduate students are not required to attend assemblies; very few of them ever see the N E W S or any other College publication. On the whole, they are like grown-up orphans, entirely divorced from College and the so-called college spirit.
This occasion indicates that on the part of the graduate students of this College, the spirit is there, at least.
It is to be hoped that in future years, other graduate students will avail themselves of the opportunities open to them in this field. May they continue in the same line, and make something definite and permanent of this first retarded attempt at organization.

Insecurity, by Abraham Epstein. Harrison Smith and Robert Haas, N'cvv York City. $4.09. 680 pages.
"Ever since Adam and Eve were driven from the sheltered Garden of Eden, insecurity has been the bane of mankind." Mr. Epstein goes on farther to point out that economic insecurity is the challenge confronting the twentieth century, What is the answer? Social Insurance.
"Social insurance aims at the maximum application of the principle of insurance in the protection of workers against persistent insecurities." It may be described as a relatively inexpensive form of insurance, borne by the

BASEBALL VARSITY TOPLAYHARTWICK State Defeats St. Stephens, 12-3;
Last Game To Be Tomorrow At 3:00 At Ridgefleld.
The varsity baseball team will play its last game of the 1933 season tomorrow afternoon at 3:00 o'clock on the Ridgefkld Park diamond, contesting the team from Hartwick college at Oneo'nta. Coach Rutherford Baker will start the regular line-up, with "Ossy" Brooks on the mound. This game will mark the last appearance of three veterans, Johnnie Detlefson, Gil De-Laura, and "Hack" Young, as they will be graduated in June. Detlefson and DeLaura have been members of the baseball squad for four years, and Young has played for three years.
The State nine defeated St. Stephen's college at Annandale last Saturday by a score of 12 to 3. Due to the stellar pitching of "Ossy" Brooks, who struck out fourteen men in a row, and the hitting of "Hack" Young, the game resulted in victory for the Purple and Gold. Two previous games on the baseball schedule were cancelled because of rain.
ARE WEEK-END GUESTS Miss Helen Daley, '29, and Miss
Mary Morgenstern, '31, were guests at the Gamma Phi Sigma sorority house last week-end.
