Homecoming1 Discussed
The balance of the meeting was devoted to discussing a possible date
and plans for Homecoming Day.
It was suggested by Dr . North that Homecoming Day be scheduled for
October 21. This date will probably be better than a date the first part of
October because of the large group of V-12 students which will be leaving
near the first of November. The Council favored this suggestion , and a
motion was passed setting the tentative date for Homecoming Day on
October 21.

On the surface , the swing from the idealistic attitude of Woodrow Wilson
to the practical attitude which seems to permeate our international affairs
today, seems to have been a desirable trend. However, if a thoughtful person
takes time to delve deeper into this phenomenon, he will find th a t a st rong
practical attitude toward international affairs is as dangerous to effective
peace as was Wilson 's idealism. There is an absolute need for a sane mixture of both the ideal and the practical to be incorporated into the Master
Blueprint for postwar world stability.
The conferees which have met at Hot Springs, Bretton Woods, and which
are now meeting at Dumbarton Oaks, seem to be unaware of the necessity
for all the peoples of the world to have a desire for peace, before the labors
of the dove with its olive branch will be of any value.
* It is conceded that the psychological influence of unconditional surrender upon the German and* Japanese people will be great . Yet , the fact
remains that a humiliating defeat will not fit the Axis nations for assuming
positions of responsibility and integrity in he world community. The conditions of the peace must not treat Germany and Japan leniently, bu t they
must 'offer solutions which cause totalitarianism and militarism to appeal
to the German and Japanese populace.
By conditions which cause totalitarianism and militarism, I mean economic
conditions. Germany and Japan have always been conscious of the fact that
they did not have access to the world's economic goods on a par with Great
Britain , France and the United States. The economic problem seems to be
the most important , for it is by playing up the inj ustice of unequal economic
distribution that the dictator is able to gain popularity, and power from his
people. The Big Four , however, do not seem to recognize the importance of
this economic aspect. By offering a plan, to the German people at least, th at
would insure them against being left in the same sorry economic plight that
they were forced into after the last war, unconditional surrender of the
Reich might be hastened several months.
By providing for Germany and Japan to be at least partially selfsustaining after the war, the Big Four might also be insuring against the
depression which the economist knows tends to follow in war's wake. If
Germany and Japan continue to have ; a stable currency, and are allowed
access to raw materials, they will be able to resume roles of importance in
world trade. Should either of these nations collapse financially after this war,
it would weaken world trade and 'increase the threat of world-wide
depression.
Lasting peace is freedom of economic opportunity for every nation—both
victor and vanquished—in the world. Freedom of economic opportunity must
be provided by The Big Four. This can only be done by divorcing selfishness,
hate, fear and taking a practical idealism to spfiuse.

in evidence at the reopening of
United States Foreign Policy

As the climax of war finds the

peopl e of U. S. approaching a national

election , we must face the fact that
for nearly 50 years, the nation hasn't
had a settled and generally accepted
foreign policy. This is dangerous to
the Republic , for when a people is
divided within itself about its foreign relations, it is unable to agree
upon the determination of 'its true
intere sts . Such is the assertion of Mr.
Walter Lippmann in his recent book,
U. S. Foreign Policy.
From the end of the War of 1812
until the end of the war with Spain ,
this country had secure foreign policy.
During that long period the people
were not seriously divided upon the
question of our relations with the Old
World. In the election of 1900, the
nation became divided over the consequences of the war with Spain , and
never since has our Presiden t been
able to rely upon the support of the
nation in the conduction of foreign
aff airs.
If at the end of this war we fail
to form a national policy, do ub t will
be cast upon the capacity of the
people to govern themselves. Though
we def eat the enemy, failure to form
a foreign policy will expose us to
deadly conflict at home and unmanageable perils from abroad.
Mr/ Lippmann believes our failure
to form a foreign policy is due to an
historic circumstance . For about
eighty years—from the time the Monroe Doctrine became effective until
the end of the war with Spain—there
was no need for the American people
to form a foreign policy. In that long
period the very nature of foreign
poli cy, of wha t i t is, and of how it is
formed, was forgotten . When events
compelled us once again to atend to
foreign relations , we had lost the art
of shaping a policy and couldn't find
a policy because we no longer knew
what we wanted.
Good and patriotic Americans, differing so sharply and so long without
reaching a common view, have forgotten the compelling and one seen
self-evident common principle of all
genuine foreign policy—that principle
alone can force decisions, settle controversy and induce agreement. This
is the principle that in foreign relations, as in all other relations, a policy
has been formed only when committments and power have been
brought into balance. "By foreign
committments the author means obligations , outside the continental limits of U. S. which may in the last
analysis have to be met by waging
war. By power, he means the force
which is necessary to prevent such a
war or to win it if it cannot be prevented. In the term necessary power
is included the military force which
can be mobilized effectively within
the domestic territory of the U. S. and
also the reinforcements which can be
obtained from dependable allies."
Without the controlling principle
that the nation *must maintain its
obj ectives annd Its power in equilibrium; its purposes within, i ts means
and its means equal to its purposes,

the Paradise Theatre, Detroit, September 15th .
Yes, sir, the Duke's been up on top
for a long time. Oddly enough, his
secret for success is no secret at all.
His "Really Solid Band" is sansmed
up in one word, rehearsal .
After a show is over the band assembles in a rehearsal room, if the
theatre has one, and if not , in the
stage. If the Duke has an idea for a
t u ne , the men sit with him until he
finishes it . He accepts their criticisms
and suggestions.
The men then pick up their instruments. Ellington takes the orchestra
by section and gives each man notes
for about four bars. The men first
play the bars individually and then
in sections with amazing rapidity.
Bar by bar the tune is developed and
in this manner it is completed. The
orchestra then plays it as a whole a
sufficient number of times to fix it
firmly in their memories.
While all this is going on the valve
trombonist , Juan Tizol , transcribes
the parts as rough scores for reference . Remarkable as the musical
memories of those individuals are,
Ellington is even more remarkable,
for he is able to detect any deviation
from the parts as he outlined them.
Th er efore, when an Ellington arrangement has been completed, it has
not only been completely memorized
but also written . At the next rehearsal the following night the arrangement is again rehearsed, time after
time, from the written parts if on
h and , and if not, from memory.
Changes and improvements are constantly being made until the arrangement is memorized perfectly. Then,
and not until then, is the number
ready for the public.
If there is any secret to the Ellington method, it is this for every hour
of actual performance there are at
least two hours of intensive rehearsal.

Drexel Tech* Signs for Homecoming Day Battle
¦V-

From the

Sidelines

by Bob Megargle

Hats off to Dr. Nelson for erasing
another big question mark! Drexel
Institute will be in Bloomsburg on
October 2 with intentions of torpedoing the Huskies in their first home
game of the year before a Homecoming Day crowd which will number into the hundreds. Drexel versus
Bloomsburg will provide a real drawing card.
Indiantown Gap will probably agree to two games, November 18 and
25, and undoubtedly will bring a
strong Army team to Bloomsburg.
Our schedule is a tough one. As
Coach Dallabrita phrases it: "The
Huskies will have to keep their
«
dukes up!
That certainly wag a mournful
walk which the soccer team took
following its 1 to 0 scrimmage loss
to Scott High School a few days ago.
The football squad was very generous with its "helpf ul" criticism which
was offered to the booters as they
made their way across the gridiron
to the Centennial Gymnasium.
However, as the soccermen stated:
"Scrimmages don 't count." If they
did , Coach Davis would have used the
substitutes more sparingly. The mentor now has a knowledege of each
man's capabilities. THE SOCCER
TEAM IS PROGRESSING IN GOOD
ORDER.
Did you know that it is possible
for a baseball team to collect two
triples and four singles in one inning without scoring a run ?
It's true and here is the proof :
Batter 1 triples but is called out
at home after trying to stretch the
hit to a homer.
Batter 2 triples and is also called
out at home plate.
Batter 3 singles.
Batter 4 singles.
Batter 5 singles.
Now, two men have hit triples,
three men have singled; the bases are
filled and two men are out.
Batter 6 hits a ground ball which
strikes a base runner. The runner is
called out but the batter is given
credit for the fourth single. Six hits
but no runs scored.

Kostos and Dal labrita
New F ootball Coaches
*

Two practice scrimmages with the
best secondary school soccer squads
in the Bloomsburg area has revealedi
to Coach Davis that : The inside forwards have not yet developed a good
scoring punch, but a decided team improvement has been made.
Several times during the scrimmages with Orangeville and Scott
High Schools the ends, DiFresco and
Muscheck booted perfect set-up
shots; still the inside linemen were
unable to send the ball past the
goalie. Smith, Bachman , and the two
ends were the outstanding linemen
during the two pre-season matches.
Bachman received credit for registering the Huskie's first goal of the
season.
Hood and Grass, fullbacks, repeatedly fouled the opponents' off ensi ve
game, and time after time Hood
kicked masterful shots that landed
directly in front of the foreign goal;
but again the linemen were not in a
position to score. When the ball eluded the Bloom fullbacks, Gil Sitler,
the goalie, was on hand to staff-off
the scoring bids. Two tallies have
been scored againist B. S. T. C. thusfar but none have been registere d
with Sitler serving as the team's last
line of defense.
The lack of a "scoring punch" is
the chief obstacle facing the Maroon

Mark October 21, down as one of the most thrilling days of your College
life for on that date the Dragons from Drexel Tech will clash with our
Huskies in the sports feature for the annual Home-coming Day at B.S.T.C.
The announcement of the two-game addition to the football schedule served as tonic for the game-thirsty Huskies who are "polishing-off" for the
season opener a week from tomorrow in. Scran ton's Dunmore Field.
Like Bloomsburg, Drexel had shelved football activities during the early
pre-war days and is now making a comeback with an eleven composed,
for the most part, of former high school stars from the Philadelphia area.
The strength of the Drexel eleven is unknown for it has yet to be tested.
However, Drexel's eagerness to reinstate football probably signifies that
the Institute is blessed with good football material.

"Down with Adolph", the w arrior said
As he boldly checked a file.
"That goes for Hirohito too!"
And leered at leg-filled aisle.

And while the sailors manned the
guns,
The Yeoman geared for strife .
He checked the flies, he checked the

And found it "on the beam. "

"Tell Mom I wen t down filing."
"If you win through submarine strafing,
Unmentioned at home in the Press,
Heed it not , no man sees the piston ,
But it drives on the ship none the
less."

guards, it won't be long until there
will be some real field hockey on the
Bloomsburg campus.
