No further action was taken
by the council on the cut system, but it was announced that

these discussions some agreement in the way of student proposals can be reached.

If you think some of your instructors are not on the ball,
you have another thought coming. One instructor, in announcing a test, was asked:
"Will it be an essay type?"
" N o , " said the instructor. "It
will be one where you will have
to stop and think, and not one
where you just back up and unload." Guess that puts objective tests under the mat.
It seems that some of the instructors have discovered a way
to get around the "no smoking
in the classroom" rule. Some of
them have been smoking pipes.
What would happen if a student
relaxingly puffed on a pipe during a lecture, test, or discussion?

—•—
While on the subject of instructors, we became obviously
aware of one instructor who
during his lectures has the habit
of using "ah's." In one lecture,
a check taken at one-minute intervals revealed that the instructor used "ah" an average of 10
time per minute. True, it sounds
like a waste of time, but if this
will eliminate the use of the
term "ah" from some lectures it
will be time worth spending.

the high school students would
use that as a play toy, too.
It seems unfortunate that we
can't see the gym exhibition
team perform.
It's the only
"varsity" coed sport, yet only
certain junior and senior high
schools throughout Pennsylvania
see the team's skills. We request
to the physical education department that the team be able to
perform in our own field house.
One interesting c o m m e n t
heard on campus in answer to a
student's gripes and complaints
about various conditions was
"if they don't like it here why
don't they go someplace else."
Hint!!
Freshman girls are still pulling embarrassing blunders. At
one of our fabulous hob-nobs a
fairly well-known upperclassman asked a freshman to dance.
Her first words were jewels:
"You aren't from around here,
are you?" It kind of spoiled her
whole evening. But then maybe it indicates that the "boys"
from LHSC are different from
other boys.

Spanish Dancers
To Appear Here
In Concert Series
The Pilar Gomez Dance Company will be in Price Auditorium as part of the Community
Concert series Thursday, March
22, at 8:15 p.m.
The fiery and beautiful Pilar
Gomez has formed a company
of spirited young artists who
present programs of exciting and
imaginative dances which include those from Maorca, the
B a s q u e country, Andalucia,
rarely-seen Mexican folk-dances,
and satires of modern-day works,
including those priceless steps of
"The Roaring Twenties."
The choreographer and director of the group is the famed

Gomez has toured throughout
the United States and Canada
for many seasons.
Miss Gomez has been called
"a Spanish portrait come to

and performed such ballets as
"Carmen" and "La Traviata."

"I never knew teaching could
be such a satisfying experience."
These are the words of Carlynn
Grouse, freshman in secondary
education from Williamsport.
Since the beginning of the
second semester, Carlynn has
been teaching Spanish to the
sixth graders of Akeley School.
Being a language iriajor, she is
very interested in the new program of foreign language being
offered in the elementary schools
today.
"The younger children," she
said, "show much enthusiasm
about foreign language and
could develop the ability to
think in a foreign tongue more
readily if introduced to it early
enough."
The young linguist said she
feels that Spanish, French or any
foreign l a n g u a g e should be
taught along with English and
in the same manner, that is,
from first through the 12 th
grades.
Carlynn emphasized repetition
and the picture-word method as
the best and most common ways
of teaching language.

The children, she said, are
fascinating, eager to learn and
"just wonderful."
Carlynn's
greatest thrill is the satisfaction
she has received from knowing
that she is extending her knowledge of language to others and
from watching children enjoy
what she has brought to them.
Carlynn stated that she hoped
more students will get an opportunity to teach during their
first years of college, for she said
she feels "it is a necessary part
of each year's work and a very
rewarding experience."

Back there

But you got to admit I

Well,

Maybe if you could

Ya see, I had this

go fer it. Well, I was late, and
I was a runnin up and d o w n

flustered, cuz I ran right smack
over these t w o folks w h o was

So this reel nice girl says to

I told them I didnt have a hour

Well now, wasn't

And
she says, if its any of m y bisness she got them at unkel
Joe's Woodshed. I can't hardly

being a winner, but a scholar
and gentleman as well can
certainly be a goal for all
physical education majors.

W e have been talking about
team support t h r o u g h o u t t h e
c u r r e n t academic year in all
sports, and one of the cont r i b u t i n g factors t o the success
thus far has been the loyalty of
the student body and townfolks
at all the matches.

N e v e r to be forgotten is E.
G r a y Simons. T h e State College
Conference,
Wilkes
Tournam e n t , N A I A and N C A A c h a m pion and a member of the U.S.
O l y m p i c wrestling team, w h o
incidently pinned back the ears
of a Russian and a record of 75
consecutive wins has b r o u g h t
m u c h fame, development of
other wrestlers and character
building and is indeed a credit
t o t h e D e p a r t m e n t of H e a l t h
and Physical Education at Lock
H a v e n State.

However, it takes much
more than support to produce
a winner. The dally strenuous exercises, the hard nose
wrestling in eliminations, the
sacrificing of meals to make
weight, the sacrificing
of
social time to get plenty of
rest, and sometimes studying
time because of body fatigue
are all important factors in a
successful wrestling season.
The followers behind the
scenes, such as the fellows
who do not make eliminations but provide opposition
in practice so that the first
team may work hard, knowing the possibility of replacement are to be commended.

Membership requirements for
the V a r s i t y C l u b are few. E a r n
one v a r s i t y letter, serve a o n e semester pledge period, secure a
recommendation f r o m
your
coach, a t t e n d t w o meetings per
m o n t h participate in c l u b ac
tivities, and you are practically
in.
T h e qualifications m i g h t
seem rigid were it n o t for t h e
fact t h a t t h e y all evolve around
athletics, which again is t h e
c o m m o n interest of all m e m
bers.
Athletics offer u n i t y of
interest manifested in teamwork.
T h e Varsity C l u b has
harnessed p a r t of this t e a m w o r k
off t h e c o u r t , m a t , or field, and
directed it toward useful and
r e w a r d i n g endeavors.

Especially at Lock H a v e n
where we have so m a n y o u t standing wrestlers, the second
man could possibly be a starter
at other schools.
Such an example would b e Bill Swanson
who perhaps would never have
wrestled varsity competition if
G r a y Simons did not get i n jured.
Indeed, equally important
are the managers and trainees.
However,, one of the
basic reasons w h y Lock Haven has done so remarkably
well is Coach Jack who has
completed his fourth undefeated season as a wrestling
coach. Two undefeated seasons in college wrestling is
considered a milestone by
many of the prominent men
in the field. With his years of
