The picture, produced by the Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago under the scient ific direc tion of it s internationally famous founder, Dr. James H. BreasteA, recovered for the audience many lost pages of history and helped to piece together the rather fragmentary story known to the ordinary student. It graphically told the "most remarkable process known to us in the universe, the rise of man from savagery to civilization." Using an airplane as the mechanical device for transporting the audience from one place t o another , the picture depicted four great World Empires. An introduction, showing the world from the beginning of time to the era of the first hairy animals oh earth, lead to the splendid review set up by Dr. Breasted to show the story of C ONTIN UED O N PAGE 4 CHOIR ELECTION IS CLOSELY CONTESTED Ray Schrope Chosen President After Re-balloting Three Times Ray Schrope, junior, was selected to act as president of the A Cappella Ch oir in a closely cont est ed election held Wednesday afternoon , November 13, in the College auditorium. Presiding chairman, Earl Kershner, was forced to call for a re-ballot three times, so close were the choices of the members. Leota Nevil, senior student from Bloomsburg, will act as the club's treasurer, while the. offices of vicepresident and secretary will be filled by John Andreas, Bloomsburg, and Florine Moore, Berwick. All officers were members of either the Girls' Chorus or the Men's Glee Club of last year. Progress on the preparation for a Christmas program has been quite rapid, the organization spending practically all its time in rehearsing the selections to bo used for the Christmas holiday season.

The well-liked commentator ex plain ed that "although we are not anti-Italy, we are anti-war. In other w ords , our attitude is new in international relations; not only de we consider that nation using warlike measures to obtain its objectoves - no matter how right those objectives are - is an outlaw among the nations but we also renounce any right to use such methods ourselves." Before explaining the Ethiopian war Dr. Raiguel stated that "it is impossible to legislate the nation into objectives without any approach. " By that he said he means that no matter how laudable the objective may be , an evolutionary adjustment is necessary.

The subscription to tho Red Cross was made in the name of Roongo as in former years. Dr. E. H. Nelson, who handled the local contribution, oxpressod pleasure in tho fact that tho 1036 contribution marked a largo increase ovor that of 1938 and 1034. Ho explained that tho reaction of students to tho annual call by National Rod Cross indicates a growing consciousness of tho oxistonco of a really charitable organization , and one which may be considered worth-while. The Maroon and Gold Dance Band, in cooperation with the Community Government Association, has been offering an hour 's program of danci n g svery Thursday evening from 6:30 to 7:30, in the gymnasium. Admission price for these dances, which were inaugurated as a new social feature of college life last year, has been placed at ten cents. Their continuation depends upon the response of students.

WINTER FESTIVAL Represente d At Funeral Services Annual Y.W.C.A. Bazaar Will Be Held In College Gym, And Also Hold Services December 7 At College Since the very sudden and shocking death of Milton Goldstein, freshman student from Scranton, Friday night , November 1.4, scores of communications have been coming into the Maroon and Gold office offering tributes from fellow students in memory of their late college mate. Representatives of the faculty and student body of t he College a tt ended the funeral services of M ilt on Goldstein last Sunday afternoon , at Scranton. Services were held in the Linden st ree t Temple , of which the college freshman was a member. Those attending from Bloomsburg were: Dr. Francis B. Haas, Professor John Koch, Dr. Thomas North, Mr. George Buchheit , Walter Moleski, Mervin Meriele , William Morgan, Ray McBride, Charles Michael, and George Lewis. On Wednesday, the College community joined in a short and impressive memorial service, held in the College auditorium. Tributes were paid at that time by several members of the facul ty and the student body. Hymns were sung under direction of Miss Harriet Moore. Some of the many fine tributes written to the memory of Milton Goldstein by the students of the College follow: "Goldie was a good "scout ;1 he never shirked a duty nor ignored a friend." "Goldie, as he was called by most of his campus associates, was one of those all too few persons with a natural, appealing personality. He was one of that small number of first-year students who became well-known to all within a short time after they came here. He had won a place in our College life, even though he was with us such a short time. We offer our most sincere condolences to his fa mily."

There is no good reason why Seniors cannot become good examples for juniors , sophomores, and freshmen, why juniors cannot become good examples for freshmen and sophomores, why sophomores cannot become equally good examples for freshmen, nor why freshmen cannot set desirable examples for visiting high school students or others who have occasion to visit the campus. Such a set-up more or less approaches a seemingly unattainable ideal , but it is the pure and logical one for a civilized group. It is one now needed at Bloomsburg and other similar institutions , where there are classes or units of different ages and varying degrees of mental growth. Peculiar as it may seem, there are many human beings who grow both mentally and physically, a n d ye t they lack the control of themselves necessary to keep them from reverting to the type of activity disp layed i n thei r younger days. As a result there are no outward signs of progress and the progress of the group to which they belong. And—to be sure—progress isn 't progress unless it is expressed outwardly. GO AND GET IT YOURSELF After every issue of the Mai'oon nnd Gold there are a f ew students who come into the office asking whoro their issue of the paper is. Some oven go so far as to complain about not receiving their pnpers. While thoso in the office are always willing to give pnpers to students desiring thorn , ovon several days after distribution , the situation 1b ono calling for editorial mention to remind students that all papers for day students will bo circulated through the day rooms nnd papers for boarding students through post; off ice boxes. All studonts are classified under those two groupings, and there is no geater peat From the Handbook of 1905 we discovered th at on ly seven t een da t es were list ed on the calendar, and at least .six of those were merely statements announcing the beginning and ending of vacation periods. The Handbook at that time was a sm all , paper-covered, booklet containing forty-five pages, a dozen of which were devoted for advertising. Do not eat with your knife is one of the hints on table manners. Under the title, "poin ters," is the following: While the authorities encourage much social freedom between ladies and gentlemen about the buildings an'd grounds at times when this does not interfere with school duties, this freedom is not permitted on the streets of town or any place off the grounds. Special attentions, which exhibit intimacies between ladies and gentlemen are strictly forbidden. EDITORIAL LIMELIGHT Beginning with this issue and continuing in many succeeding issues of the paper the Maroon and Gold will reprint one selected editorial, taken from college papers received by the exchange department. The editorials will be printed for the sole purpose of informing BJoomsburg students of the edi t orial t ho u ghts of ot her inst itu t ions, and under no conditions should they be interpreted as being of local opinion. -Credit lines will be given the colleges from which editorials are taken. THE MOUTHPIECE Comments are occasionally heard by disgrunted students condemning those other students who take up a la r ge portion of the class hour in holding discussion with the instructor teaching the course. Discussions in class, they argue, are for the benefit of all , and even if every member of the class does not participate there is no reason for any one of two individuals to argue with the instructor for most of the hour. Undoubtedly there is some cause for complaint here. Offcen certain u n derg rad u at es, who ca n on ly be called pseu do in t ellec tu als , find tha t taking as much time as possible in class for discoursing with the instructor is an excellent means of inflating their already over-pampered egos. Other students probably hold drawnout cross examinations with their instructors with an eye toward a good grade. On the other hand, many of the students who are accused of taking up too much time arguing in class doubtlessly have a genuine interest in tho subject at hand nnd wish to have certain points concerning it cleared up. Still, we welcome remedies thnt would effectivel y silence the solf-appointecl mouthpieces of the class.

Editor 's Notebook Celebration of Book Books Week from November Yesterday 17 to November 24 brought to light many interesting facts concerning books. In the first place it served to remind many readers of the importance of books in the world today. Educa tion is p ract ically based on books ; books offe r the most important source of information. They are common , so common that we fail to appreciate them as we should. Eumenes II, King of Pergamus in the second century B. C, would have considered himself in Paradise had he been given the opportunity to secure as many books as we have today. It was he who introduced parchment upon which to write. He did so because papyrus was hard t o fi nd and he didn 't want to see the progress of writers hindered because of lack of material. In France, books were t ho u ght of so highly- during the sixteenth century! that many book-lovers dyed their clothes the same colors as their favorite books as a symbol of their great esteem for them. (Today, finger nails seem to have taken the place of the books in that respect.) Also in France, during the sixteenth century, people owning books never went away from their homes unless they had their books with them. The following century, bookbinders wgto so highly regarded that they were exempt from paying taxes! In medieval times in Europe, books were so much in demand that owners of the few in existence were obliged to chain them to their shelves to keep them from being stolen. • What of books today? Books We have them; we Today " own them ; and we use them. In fact we use them in several respects : students use them for information ; laymen use them for pleasure; while many people use them for show, for part of the grain in tha t veneer of cu lture of which we all have a little. If you challenge that statement, make a little investigation for yourself. Go to your neighbors' homes sometime and take inventory of the literature to be found there. Then start a conversation ; you will be surprised to find that most of the books found on the shelves of book-cases are there for show, just as an empty vase or ivy bowl is placed on a stand for the artistic effect. But we aren't going to attack anyone for seeking beauty and art. They are desirable, very desirable in our present "campaign " to bring back the importance of the home , an importance which has been lost in the accumulation of outside interests. We could , however, buy books with a double purpose, buy them for both content and decorative purposes. COLLEGE WIT Employer—Can you come to work tomorrow ? Unemployed—No , you see I'm marching in a parade of the unemployed. More Spirit! "What did the dencon say when you sent him the brandied peaches?"

I V ^~^ KAMP VS K ViM — '— " ' In continuing our educational policy started in last issue, we have decided to acquaint the reader with modern literature. The first—and last—style of con temporary writing we will demonstrate is that of Gertrude Stein. Here it is: "We hope all of you saw the football game with East Stroudsburg because if you did n't see the football game you missed a great football game because this football game was one of the best football games we have seen since we have been going to football games. The Stroudsburg teaim is called the Big, Red but we don't know why they are called the Big Red unless they are called the Big Red because they are red that is they wear red uniforms but they would be the Big Red maybo but if they were big then they would be the Big Red maybe but they weren't but they are called the Big Red even though they are not neither big nor red they are neither red nor big that is they are not big nor are they red because it is their suits that are red they are not red and they are not so very big." Here, studen t s, ends this apparently endless dissertation by Gertrude. The two ideas which she tried to convey are, fi rst— the Stroudsburg game was a good one, and second—their nickname is the Big Red. Speaking of the game—we feel a little elated that our prognosticition was correct. We predicted that Bloom would win by two touchdowns. \Also speaking of nicknames, our ainieuc teams are somet imes referred to a t the ot her Teachers ' Colleges as the "Bloomers." This is especially true at Shippensburg. Wonder if the upperclassmen are afraid of the Frosh or vice versa? The annual football classic between the two was called off. It jus t saved the Frosh from a beating anywayit' s no t i n t he books for them t o win that game. Mr. Naegle 's program was as fine as any he has played here. He was a little late in starting, Mr. Naegle said af ter the program, becau se the piano was out of tune. He had used the sa m e pia n o i n Philadelphia and liked it so well that he had it sent up he re, but the variations in weather, temperature, etc., put it out of tune. It had to be re-tuned. Miss Moore was chagrined— she told her music classes for weeks abend about the progra m —then she developed a severe • cold and had to stay home the night of the program! Rumors of another earthquake were quickly disproved when it was discovered that the vibrations felt all over Waller Hall were the result of a dance being enacted by Mary Lorah in the dining room—as only Mary can dance. H ere's one for the Poetry Club, seen on Dr. Nelson's desk: Epidermis, epider mis You are so very thin How beautifully you fit me; If you should ever quit me How could I keep me in? Dr. Nelson is on the verge of hiri n g a pack of bloodhounds t o h elp him solve a mystery. It seems that two whole pounds of perfectly good candy disappeared from his desk last week. Never mind, sir, two po u nds would have made you sick anyway. Beware, fellows, the next time he has candy in his desk it may not be "perfectly good." Mr. Reams has something preying on his mi nd, too. It's squirrels. That is, he's worried about the am ou n t of food the squirrels on the campus are getting! He stopped a member °i Student Council in the hall the other day and, with a genuine note of pathos in his voice, began t o plead tha t Cou ncil appropria te money to feed them this winter. "Why, " he said, "I saw one of the poor little fellows that was no bigger 'round than this."—using his fingers t o make a circle about the siz e of a doughnut. We're all caught up on curren t events again , thanks to Dr. Raiguel. Did you know that he prepared to practice medicine and holds an M. D. from Pennsylvania? Wonder how he became interested in his present field? Probably got started diagnosing ailments -of people, then one thing led to another and he finally got up to doing the same thing with' nations. If our next speaker, R icha rd Halliburton , talks the interesting way in which he writes, he can talk to us for three or four hours and no one will object in the least. Only a few hours till vacation starts now! Guess everyone can use this one. And after we com e back baske t ball season will be st a r ted so we'll have Romething else to predict scores for. Have to stop now or we'll be over in the Editorinl Jots. Nuff Sed EULOGY WRITTEN IN MEMORY OF LATE MILTON GOLDSTEIN By Charle s Michael Brother Chairman , Members of the hearts of each player.

Shortess, ins t ruc t ors in the science depar t men t of the College attended the seventh Conference on the Educa tion of Teachers in Science, held at Cornell University, Friday and Saturday, November 15 and 16. Prac t icall y every phase of science teaching was discussed during the conference. One of t he mos t important topics •considered was the one dealing with science taught in the elementary systems. The main speaker for that particular meeting was J. Cayse Morrison , Assistan t Commissioner for Elementary Education , State Education Department, Albany, New York. At that discussion the science instructors in attendance emphasized the growing importance of science is becoming so popularized that younger pupils are finding an inincreasing amoun t of interest in its study. Among the many other topics dis«ussed were those concerning the st atus of post-graduate practice teaching, suggested program? of instructions for the education of science teachers, including a consideration of the New Jersey plan now effective in that state, and a comparison of recent regulation on certification of science teachers. Such well-known leaders in the field ¦of science instruction as J. Cayse Morrison , F. L. Fitzpatrick, and •Gerald S. Craig were the principal leaders in the discussions. The conference afforded , in addi tion to the many discussions on science teaching, opportuni ties for visits to research laboratories at the University and several informal social affairs. PRESS CLUB PREPARES LETTERS FOR SCHOOLS Bloomsburg 's newly o rganized Press Club has just prepared preliminary questionnaires to be sent out to almost a hundred high schools throughout the eastern half of Pennsylvania an nouncing their plans for a journalism criticism ,¦.service and newspaper con t est, planned for some tinl e in the spring of the present College year. The club has been actively engaged in preparing for the project since its formation several weeks ago.

Y. » Thr illed By Gershwin Opera Miss Lucy M cCammon , women 's physical education instructress of the College, visited New York City last week-end, where she saw two of the most successful stage shows now playing in that city. She was particularly interested in the George Gershwin show, "Porgy and Bess," which is classified by the better critics as an "American opera ." The opera depicts negro life of the south and is a pleasing combina t ion of a tragic theme and negro music. The other stage show Miss McCammon saw was, "Winter Set." She also saw the new moving- picture, "Midsummer Night's Dream ," based on the play of that name by Shakespeare. Miss McCammon made the rip alone.

Dr. Raiguel was particularl y emphatic in his explanation that war forr defense is considered a legitimate reason for war. But he reminded that no nation ever considered itself tho aggressor.

The pla n e lef t Cai r o , Egypt, on its cruise into the beginnings of civilized livi ng, soaring over the ruins of great t emples , monuments, and cities erected by rulers of the past empires. In Egypt, many magnificent examples of once great empires were brought into vie w, the airpla n e fl yi n g low ov er the tombs of the Kings and the first of the great Worl d Empires, known as Sakkara. Near Aswan, the quarries where giant obelisks were hewn from marble were shown. Continuing on over Palestine, the plane passed Jerusalem and Megiddo, an interesting sight for those who realize that when one city crumpled from age another was built above it. Fourteen other civilizations were brought to ligh t at Alishar, where scientific expeditions have been excavating for many years. One of the most interesting features of tho movie was the terrifi c wind storm , which raised the dust of Iraq to great heights, said to be well over 15,000 feet. A visit by the plane to Ninoveh , ancient and famous capital of Assyriu, revealed the second and third groat World Empires, and the earliest civilization of western Asia. The plane finally reached the fourth and last World Empiro, Persepolis, aftor having been flown over the Persian Gulf and the Persian mountains. "Today the ruins of Persopolis provide the magnificant view of the unciont world , with tho posslblo exception of tho Acropolis at Athens."
