Cagers Topple St Francis, 70-67; 2nd Half Surge Overcomes Visitors

By BOB MAYER They say it can't happen, and many of the 1200 delirious spectators that jammed the Wingate Gym still a rent

sure that it did, but Lavender basketball lightning struck for the second time last night. The Beavers rocked the local basketball scene for the second time in eight days with a brilliant 70-67 upset victory over St. Francis, to boost their season's mark to 10-3 and move into first place in the mythical Metropolitan Conference.

The victory, the Beavers fifth in a row, assures them of a winning season and equals the highest City win out­put since 1952. As he did in the Fordham thriller a week ago, 6-9 Syd Levy led the Lavender scorers, tallying twenty-five points on an assortment of hooks and jumps out of the pivot slot. He was the

Lambda Delta was closed last month by the Brooklyn police as a "cellar-club." The fraternity house, located a t 23 East 95 Street in the Flatbush section of Brooklyn was termed "a breed­ing place for juvenile delin­quents."

According to Jerry Karp, a member of the fraternity, the house was closed because it vio­lated the New York City Build-ng Code. The house was located

.in the basement of a four family house for three years. The laaid-lord has a Certificate of Occu­pancy required by law, stating that there are four tenants living in the house. The fraternity was the fifth tehant, and therefore a violation of the code. The land­lord was fined $50.

At stake is Mercury's right to continue publishing on the cam­pus.

The Administrative Committee is scheduled to make recommen­dations Monday evening to the

Beavers' most effective weapon against a pressing St. Francis zone defense that kept the Ter­riers within striking distance right up to the end.

The Beavers broke through the zone most effectively with six minutes remaining in the game. With the count knotted 58-58, Marv Rose, Levy, and Joe Bennardo sent the crowd wild by combining for nine points to the Terriers two within two min­utes.

It wasn't quite over yet how­ever, as the dogged Brooklynites fought back to tally six points, while holding City to one.

With thirty seconds to play the Beavers held a slim 68-66 lead. But they also held the ball, and that was enough. Fancy

S6 Exec Passes Suggestions To Strengthen Student Court

A series of recommendations designed to increase the powers of Student Court was approved by the Executive Con^mittee of Student Government Monday. Exec will bring the recommenda­tions before Dean James S.**

Board of Higher Education as to whether the humor magazine should retain the right to use the College's name and seal. The Committee discussed the is­sue last Wednesday but did not arrive at a final decision.

Sofer's proposals were made this week in the hope that they would determine, in Mercury's favor, the recommendations the Committee might make to the BHE next Monday evening.

The proposals, made on behalf of the editorial board of the magazine, were included in a statement addressed to President Buell G. Gallagher, with the re­quest that he transmit the con­tent to the Administrative Com­mittee.

Aligned with Mercury in its efforts to remain on campus is the Alumni Association. The Ex­ecutive Secretary of the Associa­tion, Mr. Seymour Weisman, said Monday that the Association "fully supports" the proposals offered by Sofer.

If the proposals are accepted by the Administrative Commit­tee, the Association will provide the alumni who would serve on the new advisory board, H r . Weisman said.

Peace (Student Life) for discus­sion probably within the week, according to SG President Stan Wissner.

The recommendations, made by Charles Waldauer, last term's Chief Justice of the Student Court, would empower the Court to:

• Temporarily suspend a stu­dent from extra-curricular activi­ties.

• Temporarily suspend a stu­dent organization from the use

ter of a student organization. • Order any student or organ­

ization to "cease and desist" from certain practices.

• To recommend a student's permanent suspension to the Dean of Students.

• To recommend to the Dean of Students that any decision of the Court be placed on the per­manent record of a student.

• To deny any organizatipn the right to use the College^ name, or associate such organi­zations with the College's name.

Joe Bennardo Sparks Closing Surge '•T

dribbling by J im Mazzaferro and two clutch fouls by Stan Fried­man iced the contest, although Walt Adamushko, high scorer for the l o s e r s with twenty-one points, sank a foul shot after the buzzer.

Tony D'Elia opened the scor­ing for the visitors with a set at 1:15. A one-hander by Ralph Schefflan and two fouls by Maz­zaferro gave the Beavers a 4-2 lead, but Les Yellin knotted th© count with a pair of free throws at the four minute mark. The Terriers' Terry Dugan and D'Elia then traded field goals with Levy and Mazzaferro and the score was 8-8 with seven minutes gone.

A pair of buckets each by Bob Silver and Levy, sandwiched around a hook by Al Innis, gave City an 18-12 lead midway through the half.

IFC Approves Code of Ethics Controlling Off-Campus Clubs

mester by Dean James S. Peace (Student Life), the code has been in effect since the beginning of the term. The rules of the Ethics' Code were revised in accordance with suggestions made by the member fraternities of IPC, who particularly objected to the pledging restrictions.

Entering freshmen, the code states, may not be pledged until he has "satisfactorily demon­strated'7 a " C average after the midterm marking period. The

pledge must have carried twelve credits during this period. The code also provides that a pledge cannot be "inducted" until he has earned twelve credits and maintained a "C" average.

Failure to comply with any of the stipulations in the code will result in a trial by jury by the Council of Presidents of IFC who will then prescribe the course of action to be taken. Tfeeir decision may be appealed to the Student Faculty Commit­tee on Student Activities.

An Earnest Plea The latest development in the Mercury case has been

an earnest, sincere appeal on the part of the humor maga­zine to be allowed to continue. In the letter that the editor sent to President Gallagher on Monday, several proposals were made, not only to stave off the impending disciplinary actions, but in a larger sense they represented a very real desire on the part of Mercury to improve the quality of the publication.

The proposals would establish a new advisory board mide up of City College alumni who have had professional experience in the field of writing. This would replace the soj-called advisory board that acted with such devastating in^ffectualness last semester. Rather than to help the maga­zine to improve, their shattering edict all but drowned Mer­cury in the quagmire of oblivion. This new advisory board w^uld be more sympathetic to the magazine, and would be gepuinely interested in helping to educate, and raise the standards of Mercury.

| Such a board would not have censorship powers since thjey would only evaluate and discuss the magazine after its piiblication, and the final responsibility for what is to be printed in Mercury would still rest with the editorial board. Tlie editors have however, shotwn good faith by pledging to discuss all material with their advisors well in advance of puiblication. This would give them a sounding board of pub-lid opinion, and there would be sufficient time to make any necessary changes,

i In addition Mercury would improve their training pro­gram for new members to maintain a higher level of standards.

. These proposals come as a direct result of the discus­sions in the open hearing before the Administrative Com-n^ittee in January, and in every way indicate a sincere and ajgenuine desire on the part of Mercury to become a publi­cation truly worthy of bearing the College's name and seal. t^e hope the Board of Higher Education will give them that chance. -

The Student Court • The move by the Executive Committee of Student Gov­

ernment to strengthen the Student Court, is in essence a fine idea that could do much for improving student activi­ties at the College. It would certainly make the Court far more effective than it has been in recent years. But there is an inherent danger in giving such vast powers to a group of students who may, or may not be competent and quali­fied to handle them with justice.

; If these measures are approved, the courf would' have the power to recommend the suspension of a student from classes or from extra-curricular activities. They could rec< ommend that any decision of the CJoiirt be placed on the permanent record of a student. They could deny an organ­ization the use of the CoUege's name and seal. These could be very destructive powers in the hands of the wrong stu­dents who are not experienced or mature enough to use them properly. j

We believe that before such powers are granted, some!

serious thought should ge given to the method of procedure of the Student Court. I t must be determined how hearings would be run, what the possibilities for appeal are, how! de<?isions would be enforced, and most important, how the i judges would be appointed. j

A strong, well organized Student Court would give Stu-' dent Government and the student body a great deal of' power and responsibility. We have always been in favor of i giving the students more say in their own affairs, a-d of! giving SG greater responsibility. If these plans are carefully I worked out, and executed with intelligence and good iudg-i ment, then this could be one of the most important and for-' ward-looking projects ever undertaken by Student Govern-' ment. j

We hope that these oians will be given some more con-! suieration oefore they are approved, so that the result will be &a effective progressive one, rather than a regrettable ofie.

But the early editors still man­aged—though inadvertently—to come up with their own bits of hymor. In the magazine's second issue, April 1880, the following item appeared under the heading of COR'RECnON:

"Owing io a mistake .of the printer, several pages in the other side of the sheet went to press without correction. As it is too late for a reprint we must make our corrections here.

"On page 16. second column, the last two lines, the first L— and T— were drawn, in some copies by the rollers. On page 17, second column, first line, club should be clubs — forty-second line, transpose THE to other end of line. On the twenty-first page —head of first column should be PERSONALS."

Though Mercury showed little of the satirical and humorous style which characterizes it to­day, it was still, after thirty-two years of" publishing, the most popular news and literary maga­

zine at the College. Its function was that of a newspaper, print­ing such things as club news, athletic events, and notes on.life at the College.

But with the coming of The Campus in 1907, Mercury was faced with the problem of adjust­ing itself to a new and successful rival.

Attempting to regain some of its popularity lost to The Cam­pus, Mercury, in 1913, began to print humorous cartoons. By the early twenties, the magazine had changed itself so radically that it was now a full-fledged humor publication.

Mercury . matured rapidly in those short years, and the maga­zine's humor ahd satire wras soon ranked among the best in college publications. v

This transformation left the field' of news reporting to The Campus, and started Mercury on a career that eventually made it one of the leading college humor magazines in the nation.

ercury- Triumphs and Disasters By Harry Mullin

Mercury threatened with the loss of its riyht to use the OoUege's name and seal, is noio in one of ost critical periods of its seventy-seven year existence. This is the second in a series of articles trac-

The past history of the humor magazine.

Until the arrival of The Campus in 1907, Mercury, the most successful humor maga-IA in the CoUege's history, was almost completely void of humor.

In fact, judging by present day standards, the legitimate advertising in the early

3:

T f

only ness ! •

; s of the magazine was more evesting and amusing than Dy written by the staff. From itchless cigarettes to cures for Llaria, Mercury had few,peers the field of advertising. Two the more colorful ads are

nted below: » "A few professional cranks ger for notoriety, and with a blime ignorance of the subject, Jed to certain extent by the asational press have circu-ed reports that 'OPIUM AND [•HER DRUGS ARE USED IN & MANUFACTURE OF CIG-1ETES.' This, so far as our ods are concerned, we pro-unce U N Q U A L I F I E D L Y VLSE from beginning to end, d without one iota of truth to stain it. OLD JUDGE CIGAR-TES AND SMOKING TO-

ft.CCO have always been per-c tly PURE and HARMLESS id never contained any OPIUM, RUGS, FLAVORINGS OR ELETERIOUS SUBSTANCES

any kind." Fanciful phrases of ihougnts

mched in beautiful language ay be well enough for the assies* but one homely word is lfficient to describe Fatima igareltes — They're BULLY -nd unlike Shakespeare we re-eat—they're BULLY."

But the early editors still man­aged—though inadvertently—to come up with their own bits of hvunor. In the magazine's second issue, April lfc80, the following item appeared under the heading of CORRECTION:

"Owing to a mistake of the printer, several pages in the other side of the sheet went to press without correction. As it is too late for a reprint we must make our corrections here.

"On page 16. second column, the last two lines, the first L— and T— were drawn, in some copies by the rollers. On page 17, second column, first line, club should be clubs — forty-second line, transpose THE to other end of line. On the twenty-first page —head of first column should be PERSONALS."

Though Mercury showed little of the satirical and humorous style which characterizes it to­day, it was still, after .thirty-two years of publishing, the most papular news and literary maga­

zine at the College. Its function was that of a newspaper, print­ing such things as club news, athletic events, and notes on.life at the College.

But with the coming of The Campus in 1907, Mercury was faced with the problem of adjust­ing itseli to a new and successful rival.

Attempting to regain some of its popularity lost to The Cam­pus, Mercury, in 1913, began to print humorous cartoons. By the early twenties, the magazine had changed itself so radically that it was now a full-fledged humor publication.

Mercury . matured rapidly in those short years, and the maga­zine's humor ahd satire was soon ranked among the best in college publications. • . - • • ;

This transformation left the field' of news reporting to The Campus, and started 'Mercury on a career that eventually made it one of the leading college humor magazines.in the nation.

rBig Top' for HP's Carnival To Be Built on Finley Lawn

A circus tent large enough to hold '3,000 people will be e r e c t s on the main lawn of the South Campus for this year's Camivl l Night, April 27. The tent and other decorations will follow a "State Fair" theme and there will b e ^ dancing under the stars, weather permitting.

Entertainment will be provid­ed by a Hollywood, Broadway or television luminary. As tentative­ly planned, the star performer will be either Jerry Lewis", Sam­my Davis Jr., Phil Silvers or Frank Sinatra.

Student performers will be able to audition for a place on the Carnival Night entertainment bill later this month.

As a warm-up to the Carnival

Night festivities, a College dance, sponsored by House Plan, will be held at the Hotel Park Plaza on March 15. Finalists in for Carni­val Queen crown will be choseft at the dance. Tickets for the Park Plaza frolic at $4 a couple will go on sale at the Ticket Bureau, Room 1S2A Finley, next Monday.

Coeds may t'et applications for the Carnival Queen Competition at the House P.fcn office also be­ginning Monday.

Hoopsters Rout Queens, 77-60 , for Ninth Win

The Coil-age's basketba l l team rolled to its n in th win of the season Fr iday night when i t defeated Queens College, 77-60, in the Wingate Gymnas ium.

The win assured the B e a v e r s ^

C a g e r s . •

of at least a .500 record for the season, and guaran teed mentor D a v e Polansky of never having coached a losing College hoop squad. Po lansky tutored the squad from 1952-54, dur ing which they amassed a twenty-won, fourtean-lost record.

The Queensmen w e r e unable to stop City's 6-9 pivotman, Syd Levy, who used his height ad­van tage over 6-6 Bob Timmer-m a n and 6-3 Don Hill in th'2 pivot, w h e r e he ne t ted twenty-four points . Levy, a long with Bob Silver, controlled both, back­boards. Only the fine p l ay ot t h e Knights ' co-captains, Don Hil l and Bob Bass, who scored twenty-one and eighteen points, respectively, kept the visitors in contention.

Bass opened the scoring wi th a t r io of foul shots to give the Knights a 3-0 lead. The first Lavender ta l ly came after one minu te and fifty seconds, when Levy h i t o n a j u m p shot. Levy scored aga in before another foul shot by Bass t ied i t a t 4-4. The
