A Question of 'Libel1

Aroused at some comments in an Observation Post edi­torial which lamented the role of student government at Brooklyn College, the editors of the school's newspaper, Kingsman, have accused OP of "libeling Brooklyn College •students, faculty members and administrators in general, and BC's Executive Council, Senate and Kingsman."

Unfortunately, the BC editors, who have a very vague idea of exactly what the term "libel" means, did not check the facts before they took us to task.

In fact, at the end of their lengthy and unsubstantiated diatribe, they declared, "Although Kingsman agrees in gen­eral with OP's stand, it cannot condone the paper's meth­ods." It is heartening to see that they "agree" with us in gen" era! and, if they had read OP's issue of March 3 (one day before they appeared) they would have discovered that am­ple space was given to faculty members concerned with the Debate Council situation. Their editorial charged that we distorted the facts by not presenting the faculty's position.

A peculiar aspect of the Kingsman's editorial is that they haven't troubled to substantiate their nebulous charge of "libel." We would advise the Kingsman, in future, not to cry libel whenever the truth is too shocking and strikes home too hard.

I t would also be well for Kingsman to remember their own words of less than a year ago in commenting on the local situation. *'Those students who challenge and question rather than accept blindly are decreasing in number."

Noted Without Comment Brooklyn College Kingsman, March 4. 1955—Richard

Johnson, one of Senate's representatives to the Faculty Stu­dent Committee on Student Organizations (FSCSO). has been informed hat he can not participate in extra-curricular activities for the remainder of this semester. The notifica­tion came in the form of a letter from Dean of Students Her­bert Stroup.

Dean Stroup's letter stated in part. 'In view of the stu­dent activities schedule which you have maintained, and the significant drain upon your attention and energies that it has involved, I am writing you that I must declare you ineligible for membership on the FSCSO and for officerships in student activities."

The dean also stated that Mr. Johnson s academic stand­ing was barely adequate. It has been stressed that this action was taken only with Mr. Johnson's best interest in mind.

IN THE DARK about which cigarette to smoke? Take a hint from the Droodle above, titled: Two searchlight crews, one asleep, one enjoying be t te r - tas t ing Luckies. Your search is over when you light up a Lucky. You'll find out why col­lege smokers prefer Luckies to all other brands, as shown by the latest, greatest college survey. Once again, the No. 1 reason: Luckies taste better. They taste better, first of all, because Lucky Strike means fine tobacco. Then, that tobacco is toasted to taste better. "Ifs Toasted"— the famous Lucky Strike process—tones up Luckies' light, good-tasting tobacco to make it taste even better . . . cleaner, fresher, smoother. So, enjoy the better-tasting cigarette . . . Lucky Strike.

Among ihe Cily Collegs hos t at t he CCNY-NYU baske tba l l game last Thursday , were some real c loak-and-dagger men.

Speeding toward the Ford-ham gym Thursday evening a car full of s tuden ts fell to work hack ing a w a y a t a coffin. Dis­sembl ing the b o x wi th kn ives and b a r e hands , the first pa r t of the mission was accom­plished. Thei r goal was to s l ip the coffin, t rad i t iona l at CCNY-NYU contests , in to i he g y m de­spi te t h e spec ia l police pos ted the re this yea r to keep it out .

Thei r dagge r w o r k be ing done, the s tuden ts hid t h e pieces of t h e coffin u n d e r the i r greatcoats and one by one ga ined successful en t rance in to the gym.

Final ly assembled, they t r i ­u m p h a n t l y b e g a n to p a r a d e i t a round . T h e appea rance of T h e Thing caused a riot and w h e n the coffin h a d g o n e half a round the gym a h o r d e of wra thfu l NYU m e n sw ep t down u p o n i t and af ter a lus ty b r a w l d e ­s t royed it.

The game had just ended. Up on the floor the Brooklyn Calle* supporters were mobbing Coach Plac ido Gomez and his player The big hero from the Brooklyn s tandpoin t was Barry Brunste who had spent pract ical ly the ent i re contest on the free th row li

Bill Lewis was t h e first * n e to en t e r t he locker r o o m . iHe c m pled his w a r m - u p jacket into a loose b a l l a n d hur led it agains t o of t he me ta l lockers .

The rest of the team trooped in slowly, silently. Coach Nat Ho man sat s lumped on one of the benches. Captain Merv Shorr . do* to tears, flopped exhaus ted several feet from Holman.

The p laye r s showered , dressed qu ick ly and left. The last one to leave was Shorr , the Beavers ' capta in . He ha

played his last two games wi th a rubbe r sponge in his r i gh t sneake: to protect a rup tu red blood vessel from any fur ther damage . H played the last e leven games with a brace on his left knee to prof tect an injury he had suffered in the Queens game. N o w that th season is over he will have the leg X- rayed to de t e rmine the exter of the injury.

The effect Shorr ' s injuries h a d on t h e team was no t evident u the scoring column, for he tall ied th i r ty -n ine m a r k e r s i n t h e la two games . H o w e v e r , Merv accounted for only s e v e n rebounds against NYU and n i n e against Brooklyn, far below his season' average of n ine teen . ,

On Sa tu rday night as he l imped ou t of the locker room he man aged to conceal the pain in his legs, b u t a CCNY team h a d lost fo? the first t ime to ano the r munic ipal college, and he could not conceal the pain in his hea r t .

SOME SIDE. SOME SNIDE REMARKS: My a l l -opponent team from the CCNY viewpoint wou ld include

Brunste in (Brooklyn) , Ed Conlin (Fordham) , Chet Fo r t e (Columbia). Al Inniss (St. Francis) and Connie P e r r y (Montclair) . . ~. George Fox, St. Franc is ' h igh- jumping forward, a t tended CCNY Evening Session du r ing Spr ing '53 and played on the same Even ing Session team wi th Ra lph Schefflan of the Lavende r varsi ty . . . Bill Lewis of the Beavers was capta in of the Brook lyn Tech. va rs i ty w h e n AJ Inniss of St. F ranc i s was a subs t i tu te . . . I rwin Blumenreich Yeshiva Univers i ty ' s high-scoring forward, played f reshman ball here three yea r s ago . . . This column disagrees wi th Coach Johnny Bach of F o r d h a m who accused Referee J i m m y Lennon of havin, "no guts ." After seeing Lennon officiate at Brooklyn College we would be inclined to say tha t he has "no eyes ." . . . W h a t has Jamrnv Moskowitz got agains t City College?

T h e ou t s t and ing feature of the new m a r k is that Shor r played bu t s ix ty contests , whe reas Dam­brot par t ic ipa ted in ninety-eight .

Dur ing the season Merv aver­aged 24.4 points-per-game, shat­te r ing the s tandard of 17.7 es tab­lished by J e r r y Domershick dur­ing the 1952-o3 campaign. In e ighteen contests S h o r r tal l ied be t te r t h a n th i r ty points th ree t imes, b e t t e r than t w e n t y points twelve t imes, and hit in double figures eve ry game.

In addi t ion. Shorr pul led down 342 rebounds , an average of nine­teen a game. His rebounding ave rage was lowered somewhat in the NYU and Brooklyn tilts,

when, p laying w i t h a r u p tu r ed

blood vessel in his right foot, the

"baby t a n k " could only clear the

boards s ix teen times, s e v e n

agains t NYU and nine against the

Kingsmen. Ano the r m a r k w h i c h was

erased from the books was the one-game s t anda rd of thir ty-s ix set by Shor r last year against Montclair . Merv dropped in thi r ­ty-seven against Hun te r and then notched th i r ty-e ight in the Upsala [ clash.

In all, t he bu r ly Bronxi te amassed a total of 441 points to smash the r egu la r season m a r k of 376 set by Ed Roman dur ing the 1949-50 campaign. Roman actual ­ly tallied 475 points tha t season.
