WELCOME ALUMNI BLOOM TAKES MANSFIELD 12 - O Maroon and Gold Administers First Defeat to Mansfield If Mansfield reckoned on a repetition of last year 's victory when the Maroon and Gold came home at the short end of a 39-0 score, they were sorely disappointed Saturday, November 10th , when the stalwart Bloomsburg eleven strode throu gh the Red and Black line and chalked up a pair of touchdowns in spite of Mansfield's reputatiQn fef geod football. Casting aside their strong aerial attack, the Bloomsburg boys played straight football almost the entire game, ripping off yard after yard through Mansfield' s supposedly strong line. In spite of the loss of big John Harry from the line-up Bloomsburg 's line has never shown better stuff. Working with all the power and fight they could summon , the line was almost impenetr able and time after time the boys in the backfield found holes neatly opened up for them as they drove off tackle and through center for yardage. Pennington , who, because of injuries , did not line up against Lock Haven , was back in his old position while Krafchick took the otherguard in place of Yacabonis. >#Yock " who vas also suffering from injuries returned to play a short time against Mansfield. Joe Wadas also took his old position at end for a few minutes. The fine defensive work of Krafchick , who has just recently worked his way into the Bloomsburg line-up, was almost a special feature of the game. Time and again "Kraffy " was found at the botto m of the tackle wh en a Mansfield back tried to break his way through the line. "M owrer " whose injuries confined him to the bench , will no doubt be out to defeat Seminary in this Saturday 's game. Ruch back at center played true to form a nd was a b i g man in Bl o om sburg 's opposition. Bloom ki cked off deep into Mansfield territory and the ball was run to the thirty-yard line. Thr ee unsuccessful play s and a kick gave t he h o me bo y s t he ball on t h ei r o w n 45 yard line. An incomplete pass and Kraynack took the ball throu gh center for 8 yards.

Mansfield rallied and staved off a drive through center , Warmain went back and carried the ball for 3 yards and Jaffin on the next play cleared the end for 2 yards.

Music like that which was played by those fine women musicians will live on and up lift one fro m the dull monotony of life to the beautifu l realm of pure and wholesome enjoy ment and pleasure. War Futile , Topic of Rev. Heistand 's Speech Mr. Buella Talks on Experience in France On Friday, November 9, Armistice Day was observed in chapel. The first speaker was Mr. Buella of the 28th division. He told of his experiences in the war, such as: the trip over, experien ces in England , experiences under first gun-fire at Calais^ France and life in the trenches. The next speaker , Reverend Heistand, tried to show us the futility of war. His speech was one which made us think , for he said there isn't any glory in war. If anything should make us wish to out-law war, Mr. Heistand's talk should.

Last Thursday night we had the opportunity of hearing The Boston Women 's Symphony Orchestra conducted by the famous Ethel Lsginska , who is an artist of great ability . As we all know , or at least should have realized this was a very special occasion which we should have appreciated. There were in the audience some music lovers. There were also some students in the audience who didn 't seem to appreciate or estimate the value of thi? program. They coughed , whispered , moved , and shuffled their programs. This continued until Miss Leginska requested them to keep still or leave. We were very sorry this had to happen and we should hereby resolve not to have a repetition of this incident. We are all old enough to know better. This may seem trivial to us, but let us consider the impression it made on our visitors. Let us keep in mind the fact , that our behavior reflects on our home-training and our COLLEGE. ~ ~ ™ iiT& a CuF ifate The Store Where You Save Money Patent Medicines :-: Toilet Articles Stationery :-: Candy, Etc. 144 En st Main Street :-: Bloomsbu rg, Pa. ¦*^M H^ ^ftlk rJ M B ^I « rVBv lr I^B^ ^ llVlJ ^^ am ^^ A c^^^ ^r ^ 4^ ^^ t \ B ir^^^ ^^^ rl^^^ F^IHI^r* f^ ^^^ h^H Ag ^j t^^^ A 1W 11^^^ &f L^^^^ t ft ^^^^ J t^^^^ f t^^^ A j l^^^^ j& ^^^ AJI ^ M v ^BM ^rflefl Ih^^ i ^^^^ H^ll^ ^HWF^^ ^^^ r v ^ r ^ r i f^^^f r^ ^H^ ^Pv^m^^^^ 1^^^^^^^ H Bart Pursel , Jr. rwwvwwxsNsv ^fwwwwv/N/xsxsNsx/vsxsN/wwwx 160 North Iron Street Cleanin g, Pressing Dyeing, Repairin g Dollar-Dr y-Cleaning PRIN T I N G ?

The Careys were such a family. They lived on a small farm whose fertility had long been exhausted, and seemed to gather a livlihood for four small boys from the very rocks on the clay covered hillsides. The father of the family was not well at any time, and this particular winter . was forced to spend much time indoors. The mother a small woman and frail in appearance, worked early and late. She did the work for the family, helped in the fields whenever needed , kept the children in school, and despite her fraility created an atmosphere about the house that meant but one thing , and that was a real home. One Saturday morning Mr. Carey did not have strength enough to rise from his bed. • His wife was greatly alarmed, but she said nothing about it as she prepared the simple breakfast. "Where is Dad?" inquired Jan the oldest boy, as the family drew around the breakfast table. "He felt tired t his morning, so I did not waken him ," the mother smilingly answered patting Jack , the baby boy^ on the cheek. Outwardly she was calm and her own sweet self, but inwardly her mind was in a turmoil. She knew that her husband was quite sick. Usually she had trouble keeping him in bed , but today he showed no desire to rise. His breath came in gasps and his head was hot. As soon as breakfast was over she slipped quietly upstairs unobserved. Quietly she pushed the door ajar and entered the room. He was apparently sleeping, but his breath was more irregular. As she watched he tossed from one side of the bed to the other. Restless, feverish, she did know what else. Doctors were expensive so one was not often called. But to her this seemed an especially urgent case. She went back to the kitchen. Before the boys started out to do the morning chores, she called Jan aside and said, "Jan , I believe we should call Dr. Good to come and see Dad. He doesn 't look very good to me. Suppose you run down to Mrs. Beeche's and ask her to call him on the phone for us." Jan , too, was alarmed. "You think he is awfully sick, Mother? Maybe its only a cold, but I'll go and be back soon to milk. I'll be back soon, Mother," and he darted out of the door. His two younger brothers went on with the chores forgetting their father had not been up for breakfast. Baby Jack played around on the kitchen floor until his mother had finished the dishes. She humidly picked up Jack , afraid to leave him alone, and ran up the stairs hoping to find the sick man awake. She opened the door again very softly and stood Jack on the floor inside. She walked quietly to the bed. Her hands fell by her side, her knees gave way under her, and she fell forward her face striking the bed as if she were going to faint. She quickly caught herself and began rubbing her eyes with clenched fists as though to strike away an illusion. Be- fore her lay her husband , not tossing restlessly, but still. Cold drops of perspiration were on his forehead, and his eyes were opened wide in a horrible fixed stare. "Dead?" She whispered huskily, and again repeated, "Dead." She wanted to scream, to fly, to cry, but remembered Jack who because of his mother's strange actions came closer to the bed. She pulled the sheet over the drawn face before the child saw.' Not a tear came to her eyes and her voice was calm as she picked up the boy and spoke very low, "Daddy 's gone to sleep; dear, and I'm afraid he'll never be awake again." Jack only opened his eyes in wonderment and inquiry, so she explained further , but it was not without much effect. "He's gone to Heaven , Jackie, where you'll go some day if you're a good boy." Jack began to understand that he would never see his father again and started to cry as his mother earned him with uncertain steps down to the kitchen. Here they found Jan in high spirits because the doctor had promised to come within a half hour. Jack's crying startled him , and one look at his mother 's whit e face made him dash up to his father's room. It was fully five minutes before he returned. In the meantime his mother had almost succeeded in drying Jack's tears. Jan 's mind was dazed. With tear dimmed eyes he knelt beside his mother 's knee and slipped his cold moist hand in hers. She clutched it tightly and found comfort in its assuring grasp. When she had recoved her voice she closed her eyes, laid her hand on Jan's shoulder, and spoke a few short sentences in prayer; they were earnest and instilled in Jan the will, the determination to use his small might for his mother and brothers that they might be able to keep their happy though meager home. "Dear God", she prayed, give us strength to bear this sorrow and do the work before us. Help Jan and I to follow in thy path and may we somehow, Dear Lord, by thy goodness be able to live together. There must be a way, and we will find it, and work together and keep the three small boys together—give us strength O, Lord !

The ball was fumbled and covered by Mansfield who* immediatelly drove unsuccessfu lly through guard and then went 5 yards th rough center. The Mansfield full back went back to try for a field-goal. A neat drop-kick passed a little to the left of the uprights and Bloom took the ball on the 20 yard line. A pass to the 40 yard line and the quarter ended. The first play in the next period resulted in an 8 yard gain when Jaffi n took the ball around end. An unsuccessful pass preceded the kick to Mansfield's 25 yard line.

Warmain went back and made a neat run for 9 yards around end. Kraynack went through center for another first down and Jaffi n gained 6 yards in the next play. Captain "Eckie " again went back and drove for 12 yards. Mansfield took time out with the ball in Bloomsburg 's possession 15 yards from scoring distance. Kirker went around end and the next play Warman back resulted in a first down. Kirker immediately took the ball and cut through for a touchdown. The kick for the extra point was blocked. Mansfield elected to receive and Swinehart kicked to Mansfield 's 25 yard line. It was run back to the center of the field and Mansfield made their biggest threat of the game when they opened up a series of passes and held the ball on Bloom 's 7 yard line when the half ended—Bloomsbur g 6, Mansfield 0. The third quarter bega n with Mansfield kickin g off. Kirker caught the kick on the 20 yard line and ran 25 y.'irds before he was taken out. On the third down "Red" Creasy got under a 25 yard pass from Kirker and Bloom started off with a first down on Mansfield 's 20 yard line. Another first down and Bloom fumbled on Mansfield 's 7 yard line. The visitors covered the ball and immediately put it into play only to he thrown for a 5 yard loss by Ruch.

The final period began with Mansfield shifting their offense to aerial attacks. A little j ater a kick gave the home team possession of the ball on their»own 20 yard line. Bloom ripped off 4 first downs only to lose the ball on an intercepted pass. A penalty of 15 yards for unnecessary roughness set Bloomsbur g back for a Mansfield first down.

President Pennington called the meeting to order ; the secretary, Miss Welliver called roll by numbers she had previously given to each member. The play "Q" was then presented. It was directed by Jack Fortner who also played a prominent role in it. The cast consisted of: Jack—Jack Fortner ; Kurtz ; Blithe, the butler—Devine; Evelyn Jenkins. The play was well acted ; it was followed by an interesting discussion and criticisms. Miss Johnson discussed having the picture of our club put in the Obiter, the college yearbook. She also said that some Freshmen who had been asked to take part in plays of the club had refused to do so. As membership in this club is attained by participation , not by being merely part of the audience, everyone who is given a part in a club play must accept it, have a reason for not accepting it or be released from the club.

A delicious luncheon was served but the most important part of it was the large chocolate birthday cake received fro m home. Miss Gertrude Gavey spoke on the significance of a birthday party in a young girl 's life; Miss Stacia Audelevicz rendered several vocal selections. An exhibition of a Tropical dance was given by Miss Sophia Makarczyk and Hawaiian music was furnished by Miss Eleanor Zydanowicz on her guitar. Miss Anna Morgis gave some imitations and pantomimes of the outstanding characters of this school. Miss Emma Hibian was kept busy serving the hungry "Wallerians " The party was unwillingly brought to a close at "Lights Out " with a word of thanks and appreciation by Miss Mary K. Storosko. We are glad to see so many of our Berwick friends back with us again. We were sorry that others must leave us; however, th ere is an old adage, "Distance lends enchantment. " We notice that Danville Square Dances and triple-dates are becoming exceedingly popular with certain fourth floor Freshmen. Many girls were home over the week-end. A self-appointe d committee was waiting for them at the door and took the names of all bearing suspicious looking packages. Inves- * tigations were carried on later; practically all bore fruitful (and cakeful ) results. Among those entertaining were: Eleanor Dwyer, Katie Astleford , Ruth Bennage, Grace Reichard , Florence Baker , Belle Foulds, Geraldine Morgan , Florence Jones and Dorothy Welker. The Dorm has been quite noisy over the ¦week end having many visitors fro m Berwick. Sit up and take notice; Dorothy Voigt spent the week 'end at Nanticoke. We wonder what the attraction is Dot? Third floor was the main attraction last week when the girls in room 354 held a party. Helen Wheaton and Elizabeth Williams have mastered the back somersault so well , that they have been booked for a two year contract with the Ziegfield Follies.
