Most of the birdmen are aheo.d of schedule considering the time which has elapsed since they have started. Approximately fifteen of the thirty-five hours required to obtain a private license have been completed by most of the students. Start Stage C Most of the young birdmen are now entering Stage C of their course, having completed Stages A and B. Stage A of the training consisted of dual instruction in the principal flight maneuvers. Andrew Magill led the boys to the completion of this stage by being the first student to solo. Stage B consisted primarily of solo practice of the elementary fli ght maneuvers and some advanced instruction. Str.ge C, upon which most of the boys are now embarking consists of dual check and solo flight in which spins , stalls, vertical banks, and different landings are practiced. Cross Country Hop The students are practicing arduously in preparation for their crosscountry fligh t, one of the outstanding stages in their ini tial flying career. In conj unction with their progress in the air the boys are progressing as well in their ground school training, having begun the study of Meteorology under the instruction of Dr. H. H. Russell.

Yet there has arisen or has existed a condition which is one of the characteristic pitf alls of pedagogy. Whether it is the method of instruction or the method of supervision matters little , for it is the method in either case which has ten ded to counteract truth. The instructors or the supervisors tell the stu dents what to hear , what to think , an d what to do. In some cases this may be for the genera l benefit of the students, an d it is the duty of the students to see such efforts and to take advantage of them. But it is also the duty of those who are responsible to set a demarcation line at the point beyond which their supervision becomes dictatorial. Much can be said when an educational institution dedicated to the promotion of free thoug ht and the development of active thinking citizens is preju diced by a few intolerant individuals to suppress a freedom without giving the merits of an in dividual or his subject due consi deration. Under such cricumstanccs how is a free thinking American public to be developed ? How are our sacred liberties to be protected? And how is the truth , the rig ht an d the wrong to be discerned?

These qirls are a part of the college: they are good sports and belong here. However , do the fellows treat them as such? Definitel y no. They walk past t h em to g lamorous Sue or jitterbug Jane. Rumors are t hat B.S.T.C. boys have little poise and poor manners. But this can ' t be true — ask those "honored " gir ls they dance wit h. Of course this list is rather select and exclusive , an d on e may have a difficult time to disprove these rumors , If a boy does dance wit h one of the wallflowers his usual remark is, "Well I did my charity wor k, " or "T hat was a good deed for the day.

Languages It seems the most puzzling of all paradoxes, that when the United States was really isolated from the rest of the world by the great Atlantic and when it had no international trade comparable with that of the present day, no cables, no telephones, no radios, no steamships, no airplanes, no motion pictures and relatively few immigrants who did not speak English. Every well-educated man was trained in the foreign languages. Yet , today with twenty million daily radio listeners , with ten million more in daily contac t with foreign languages. Many disputants insist that foreign languages are not important. The fact is that the 'common man ' has more direct contact with foreign languages today than over before in history. A large number of America ns who formerly saw no need for including languages in high school courses of study are awakening to the great import ance of foreign languages and are equipping both themselves and their children with suilicient foreign language to understand and be understood. At the present time Spanish seems to bo in the ascendency. The average student who has the inclination to st udy a language wants to study Spanish. The lang uage appears to ha ve come into the fore in a considerably short time . Never has there been such an interest for any one language as there now is for Spanish. The main reason for this interest is that Americans are realizing that if they want to continue trade relntions with Latin American countries they must not simply learn about Spanish , but must loarn Spanish so they can use it for communicative purposes. Ever since Nazi Germany made France fall to her knees and become subservient to the Fuehrer , the French Ianguugo lias been declining in popularity . Despite the fnct that France has been conquered , French hns been nnd nlways will be the language of cull lire. Suppose the United States were to bo conquered by Gormnny. Would the English lnngunge be completely effneed from the globe ? No , of course not, It would bo absolutely impossible for Hitler oven to nttempt to compel the conquered nations to accept the Gormrin language . Purely for the sake of culture Americans should study foreign languages.

This is a story of two brave people who dedicate their lives to huma nity. Frederic March plays the part of Reverend Spence , and Martha Scott his wife, Hope. The time of the story extends from 1904 to the present day. The Spences begin life together in a small town in Ohio where their first charge is located. In the years that follow are many trials and heartaches as Will Spence accepts new charges and moves on. Their three children add zest and humor to the play and help to make the Spence family a delightful one. Other coming attractions are: "The Chocolate Soldier", a comedy ro m ance , stars Nelson Eddy as a matinee idol and Rise Stevens as a queen of melody. More than anything in the world, Karl adored the beautif ul Marie; however, he was so very j ealous of her. He finally decided to put her love to a crucial test. The result is quite amazing. "The Little Fox es " is based on the biblical tale about, the little foxes who would steal the choice grapes f rom the vines. This is in reference to the greedy people who acquire thei r wealth by bleeding the poor.

M & G Sports Staff Casts Pr edictions Attempt to Call Winners In Final Round of Grid Events With the football season on its last the sports staff has elected to take a last-second fling at calling the winners for this final round of gridiron competition . This being their firs t and final attempt at the difficult task, the talented "crystal-gazers" vow to turn in several perfect reclegs, urus. The m.ajor college football elevens after strenuous workouts during the better-half of their schedules face probably their toughest opponents in these late season contests. Of course the highligh t of the November 29 frays will be the annual Army and Navy shindig which unravels at Franklin Field. Several backyard scraps, including the Tennessee-Vanderbuilt , Boston College-Holy Cross, Carnegie Tech-Pitt , and FordhamN.Y.U. get-together's, should provide top-flight entertainment and interesting results . Anything can happen in these games where no holds are barred and where these arch rivals are ben t on victory. Follow these games and these results and see if the sport staff can call them correctly. These predictions were talliad before Nov. 22 so the games will be picked according to what has gone before. November 27 Franklin & Marshall Ursinus ( Foster, Garey, Reitz , Chappell) (0) November 29 Boston College Holy Cross ( Foster, Reit z) (Garey, Chappell) Army Navy ( Foster, Reitz) (Garey, Chappell) Conte Scores The Huskies lost little time in getting their improved offensive attack underway. After the opening boot the Buchhei t-coached clan began a downfield parade and on the third play, aided by a cute scamper by Mario Conte, flashy sophomore back, the Maroon and Gold had invaded touchdown land. Don Rabb's educated toe brought the extra point and thus the Huskies were off to a quick 7-0 lead, which they were relinquished. Kutztown in an effort to spring an offensive of their own used the much discussed T formation, and plus an occasional formation , No t re Dame style, managed to keep the Huskies from . scoring until the third sector when Conte crossed the payoff stripe for B.S.T.C. Once again Rabb added the extra point. Three Seniors Do Farewell In staging this amazing exhibition of football, the' B.S.T.C. unit proved that they had the game-winning spirit . On the Husky squad were three seniors, John Shlanta, Stan Schuyler , and Len Herr. All three have done yoeman's work on the team this year and thei r absence will be sorely felt.

Coed Sport Gossip Aeouhd by Alex Foster THE HUSKIES R ESOUN DING CONQUEST of Kutztown , by far the most convincing measure in many a Homecoming agenda, proved but one thing — that B.S.T.C. deserves a winning football team. In order to field a successf ul eleven you must have experienced men. If you want teams you need material. Plenty of real scholastic athletes are passed up simply because they are not given the proper approach. Our gridiron elevens, always under a heavy handicap due to lack of experience and reserves, nevertheless, are seldom outfought . However , in ^ college football the prime essential is fundamentally ample material with proper experience. Lock Haven and Shippensbu rg certainly displayed the fr uits of tapping the high schools. Is it worth a trial here ? RECENTLY this writer had the good fort une of watching the forces of Harvey Harmon (R utgers ) in action down Jersey way. Not only does the former U. of P. mentor have a well-knitted , sturdy club this year, but chances are that when another season rolls around he will run out an equally strong unit. In easily out doing University of Conneticut , Rutgers looked like a real gridiron machine. With a wealth of sophomore material on hand , including passingartist Bob Marks, Danville boy, and Ernie Nedvins, an excellent alla r o u nd gu ard , Harmon had nothing to fear in the future . Knowing both of these players well, we were invited into the Rutgers dressing room where for the firs t time we had the chance to talk to big-league college coaches, trainers and players. Harmon , an honest-togoodncss player's coach, knows his football with the best of them and his genial personality and sincerity brings out the hardest football those lads can p roduce. DURING THE RUTGERS trip we came across a story concerning a nonexistant college football team that we thought was really thought-provoking and down-right interesting. It see m s that for seven weeks a college , known as Plainfield N , J. Teachers, had been unbeaten and had been turning in big scores against their opposition. All the metropolitan papers carried the weekly results of their games. It begnn to be rumored that if their play con tinued they would no doubt be invited to some bowl contest. Then it happened. One New York City paper received a mysterious phone call to the effect that such n college or team never existed. Amazed , the sportseditor investigated and found it to bo true.

What palt ry customs were meted out this year were involuntarily received by a small , harried group which might bo termed , "Lavelle's lackadaisical lcatherheads". The green in their eyes is fast fading and they bid fair to be a valuable asset to the farreaching organization that is termed , "The North Hall Men 's Association ". The "Eyes " Have It Don't mention the proper noun "Tabu " in the presence of rotund Reynold Dominic Paganelli . He is trying to forget her, and for a time contemplated joining the Foreign Legion until he discovered that the men u in that line of service is not too delightful . All in the short space of the existence of the 1941 edition of the Bloomsburg Fair he found his dream girl and saw her vanish. Life isn 't the same for him now, so try to be kind and understanding. "Amo, Amas, Amat" Certain incoming North Hall Freshmen lost little time in availing them selves the questionable comfort of female companionship from the i*anks of the Freshmen girls. This little group of "Lavelle's Lotharios" shows unmistakable signs of former experience along this lino , and everyday these "Barrymores" are picking up new and radical slants in their line of endeavor. It is even rumored that some advocate the abolishment of the bottle in "Spin the Bottle ", the flash light in "Flashlight", and the postman in "Postoffice ". "Contact " A new crop of "Bigony's Birdmen " is in the making, and as these fledgings flutter out of their nests all North Hall echoes to the cry of . "Boys, there's nothing like it!" Bob Cresswell, who has already taken the primary C.A.A. course, is now in secondary training at the Wyoming Valley Airport. Sunday morning in North Hall brings forth a traditional custom that probably dates back to antiquity. Several flocks of "vultures" hover about the lobby waiting to pounce on some unsuspecting member who has seen his financial way clear to in vest in some edition of the Sunday paper . Those wary "birds " don 't attack thei r prey immediately, but stalk him to his room. Here, as he is nboujp to reach for the Sports section , the Vultures break formation and swoop ravenously down on the newsprint to snatch th e choice bits. The thwarted purchaser sits back with all ho has boon able to salvage, "The Financial Page", or "Homo Hints ", gives up in despai r, and retires to the lobby who re perchance ho may find solace in scanning tho tattered pages of Sat urday 's, Morning Press, And so it goes in North Hall.
