Friday, February 26, 1937 EDITORIAL NOTES 1 Teachers of English .... and prospective teachers of English should give more than a littl e thought to the plea for a return to liberal arts and the classics as brought out in an address by Dr. Robert Hutchins of the University of Chicago before the opening meeting of the New York City Association of Teachers of English. The Chicago Educator .... described teachers of English as "the custodians of what is left of tradition in education." It is up to them, ho explained , to bring back the tradi tion and books and discipli nes through which we know it. It Is Commonly Said .... While Dr. Hutchin 's . . .. that great books are too difficult for the modern student ," Dr. Hutchins continued. "All I can say Is that it is amazing how the number of too difficult books has increased In recent years. The books that are now too diffic ult for candidates for the doctorate wero the regular fare of grammar-school boys In the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. Most of the great books of tho world were written for ordinary people, not for professors alone, They are In some sense a basic language about everything." address was considered by many a gantlo attack on the so-callod textbook racket which is now depriving students of their tools and smothering their abilities in intellectual reading, somo educators strongly criticize tho young prosldent of tho University of Chicago for exaggerating the need for return to somo phases of a liberal education, •' However, his appeal may be looked upon as a purposeful exaggeration for emphasis. Dr. Hutchins ' viewpoint may not bo clear to many. His address may hotter he considered a last minute ploa for the life of liberal arts. That tho liberal is most importan t of all four arts (natural , useful, liberal and fine) in education , few will dispute It is far more basic and prompts further study of all others. It Is far more broadening and Is nooessary for the development ot aulturo. Regardless Of What .... KAMPUS KULm I LiterarUif Sp eaking Biography In Brief H E A D S A N D TALES Malvina Hoffman Are you interested in travel? The lif e story of a woman sculptor? Adventures in the odd corners o£ the globe.. If you are, we recommend "iHeads and Tales" by Malvina Hoffman , a truly fascinating book. One of her great adventures began in 1930, when she accep ted an opportunity to travel around the world and study the various racial types for a group of figures to be placed in the Field Museum in Chicago. This new section to the Museum was given the name, "Hall of .Man." -It was completed in the early part of 1933, and was opened to visitors of the World's Fair. In its first year open to the public over three million people visited the Hall of .Man. One learns from reading this fascinating book that one must have more than an artistic sense in order to become a true sculptor: an understanding of human nature is necessary, and a sense of humor. Miss Hoffman brings forth a definite criticism of socalled civilized human beings. We lack {lie desire or are unable to understand more than our modern materialism. W-e have become drugged with routine matters. We have , lost our perspective of life. The Savage, on the other hand, has the ability to interpret human nature. He is psychic, intuitive. While civilized man uses words to express his though ts the savage can, by the look of the eye, a smile, a movement of the body, establish a confidence in which confidence and humor flow. Civilized man seems to have lost the ability to arouse confide nce In his fellow man. He has lost the primitive forces which have given endurance, courage, and equilibrium. In concluding this discussion, Miss Hoffman says that civilized man has a chronic case of nerves. How many of you students know that tho original name of this institution 's newspaper was 'Bloom-InNews.' It was changed in 1924 to 'Maroon and Gold.'

His high-powered quality must have traveled far and wide; for one afternoon the postman brought John a nice package of Cloverine Salve with which he was to try out his science of selling But John Hendler, Maccuga's roommat e, was not to be outdone so easily. A few days later another package arrived addressed to Hendler. This was a more fragrant, more appealing panacea called Rosebud Salve She is a jun ior.

Beginning a new sport at Bloomsburg, Coach Homer and his lads progressed rapidly during the season and recently dropped a close match to East Stroudsburg who defeated Lehlgh University. Previous to this Blooms* burg had dropped home and away wrestling matches with Mansfield, Handicapped by inexperience, the boys found the going rather difficult but their enthusiasm for the sport never waned. It is understood that the athletic committee of the College will take under advisement a petition signed by forty boys requesting that wrestling bo made an intercollegiate sport with regular varsity awards in the year 1S38. It is quite probable that the athletic committee will recommend favorable action on this petition which will mean varsity wrstllng for next year. Today the Husky basketball team j oureys/to the Mansfield hardwood to play their last 1937 season Teachers College game, with nine victories and five defeats behind them. All Bloomsburg will focus their eyes upon this combat to see if the j inx on away games can be broken. -Coach Buchheit's men turned back the up-staters 30-22 in a previous " game that was not decided until the closing minutes of play. The Mansfield team is unpredictable, sometimes showing superior basketball, other times displaying a brand of play that caused them to lose to Millersville State Teachers College by a 46-11 score. Meet Ithaca Saturday Then tomorrow the Maroon and Gold hoopsters continue their road trip to Ithaca where they will engage the New Yorkers for the fourth time. Bloomsbure lost to the out-of-state team. in. three straight contests. In the last meeting the Huskies were swamped under an avalanche of field goals to lose 48-31. It was Kauffman, the Black and White's captain, along with .Saake, who virtually licked the Huskies single handed by his fine floor work and shooting. This time , however, Cap tain Ruckle will be on the floor to change the course of events. His early-season hand injury kept him on the sidelines for the first Bloomsburg-Tthaca game. Several -weeks ago the Ithaca quintet was surpris ed by East Stroudsburg who piled up an excess of eight points to take the New Yorkers across. Bloomsburg won one and lost one to Stroud this season, so its the Husky turn for victory tomorrow night.

Indian Lecturer Discusses Editors Are Broadening Problems Of His Countr y Their Scope of Material Examination of the school and colSir Albion Banerji Prophesies lege newspapers coming in to the Great Changes In Indi a's Maroon and Gold office from various Government Sir Albion Banerji , in his lecture last Friday, brought intimate problems of India to the attention of the faculty and the student body. Speaking with the enth usiasm that is natural from one who is a factor in the work of improvement of his country and his people, Sir Albion pointed out the considerable progress made under British control in India. Sir Albion is one of India's outstanding statesmen. He has held offices rather in-the native states than In British India , although he has been a distinguished member of the Indian Civil Service, and was knighted for tho.t service. For sevea years he was Prime Minister of the states of Cochin and Mysorej He won name and fame for his administrative ability . He infused new blood and vigor into every branch of the administration and put down corruption and intrigue. He began his lecture with a brief history of the acquisition of control by England, and then gave an interesting account of the people , the caste sys- ' tern , Indian religions, sects , races, and languages. "During the next fift y years or more there is going to be vast changes which will influence the moral, social, and political situations of Asia," the speaker prophesied.
