President Andruss
Legislation .will be introduced in
Given Leave for
the State Senate this week to make
the 14 state teachers colleges tuitionSummer Months
free and authorize them to expand

their curricula to include subjects in
addition to teacher-training, i t was
revealed today.
Sen . George N. Wade , R., Cumberland, said he would sponsor both
meas u res , designed to enable the colleges to meet postwar requirements
in the educational field .
One of the bills will seek to abolish the present basic $95 yearly "contingent" fee paid by all students at
the training schools. Public instruction secretary Francis B. Haas estimated the fee provides 50 per cent of
the total cost of running the institutions.
The second measure would enable
the boards of trustees of the state
colleges to start other courses, in
eluding vocational and straight college work on their curricula in addition to the teacher training program.
The schools thus would be able to
branch but into adult education, recreation and vocational guidance and
specialized fields now given only by
independent schools.

1-30, 1945 and the goal is 150,000,000
pounds of clothing.
This will be the one nation-wide
clothing collection to be conducted
in the United States in the Spring of
1945 for foreign war relief purposes.
The only exceptions will be instances
where certain organizations engaged
in foreign relief activities will continue accepting gifts of clothing from
their own immediate constituency on
a noncampaign basis.
Throughout wer-torn areag eloth-ing is very scarce or threadbare ond
worn out. More than 125,000,000 people are in liberated or to be liberated
nations of Europe which are in dire
need of clothing. Of these more than
30,000,000 are children. Because of the
demands of the armed forces and civilian needs, manufacture of clothing
in the United States or other countries to relieve those distressed people
will not get under way for some time.
This means the needy men, women,
and children in war-devastated countries must depend on the help of the
American people.
In a report to Congress on participation in operations of UNRRA, President Roosevent said on September 30,
1944 :

"Millions of people do not have enough clothes to keep them warm
. . . in occupied Europe almost as
many people have died from exposure
due to lack of adequate clothing as
have died from starvation."
What is needed is good substantial
used clothing, for both winter and
summer wear. Although clothing need
not be in perfect repair, it must be
useful to the people who will receive
it . Underclothing and all types of
cotton garments should be washed
before they are donated, but need
not be ironed . (Evening dresses, tuxedos, and dress suits ennnot be used.)
MOST URGENTLY NEEDED ARE
THE FOLLOWING :
Infant's Garments. All types are in
urgent demand , particularly knit
goods,
Men 's and Boys' Garments . Overcoats, topcoats, suits, coats, j ackets,
shirts, all types of work clothes, in'lding overalls, etc., sweat ers, underwear, robes , pajnmns , knitted gloves.
Women 's and Girls' Garments. Overcoats, jackets, skirts, sweaters,
shawls, dresses, underwear, aprons
j umpers, smocks, robes, nightwear ,
knitted gloves.
Caps and Knitted Hcailvvcar. Serviceable heavy duty caps and knitted
headwear (such as stocking caps) are
needed, (Women 's hats, dress hats ,
and derbies cannot be used.)
Bedding, Blankets, Afghans, sheets,
pillow cases, quilts , These are needed

Education ? ? ? a Mighty Force

The dictators we figh t are intolerant of other peoples, of other ideas,
of other ideals. Around the globe our
boys are fighting and dying to put
down the evil forces of intolerance .
The strength of our country rests
in the fact that people of differen t
races and creeds have learned to live
together as Americans. But if we are
honest with ou rselves we know that
there is much intolerance at home.
Minority groups insist that when we
ai*e figh ting away for justice abroad
it should be practiced at home . Even
in the midst of the war effort a
smoldering tide of 'tension and antagonism is breaki ng into flame at many
points . Grave troubles are in store
if we do no t remedy the causes .
Shall we assume that the task is
too great—that prejudicas rooted
through the years cannot be overcome ? Dare we hide our heads in the
sands of complacency about bigotry,
racial discrimination and prejudi ce ?
The facts will not let us say, "It can't
happen here."
We can expect to have antagonisms
as long as there is cause for them.
Immediate steps need to be taken to
remove discrimin ation against minority groups as rapidly as possible. But
the long-run solution to the problem
is education which will produce
changes in the thinking and in the
actions in men and women,
Education can and does affect the
attitudes and the actions of the child
of today—the citizen of tomorrow.
The program at Springfield , Massachusetts, has proved that education
can develop wholesome attitudes on
the pavt of children. It can teach
them to think straight on questions
of racial , religious , and nationality
differences; it can give thorn contacts with diverse kinds of children ;
it can cultivate tlio habit of self-criticism.
Different sections of the country
will need to deal with those problems
In different ways—but deal with them
wo must if wo are to achieve at homo
the justice and liberty for which wo
figh t afar.

Power of Education
There is power in a waterfall, in a
in an acorn . But there is a
greater power in education which
teaches men how to con trol the forces
of nature and change the thoughts
and the actions of man himself .
Our enemies have demonstrated the
power of education for destruction.
Hitler buil t his whole scheme of conquest and power, hate and greed upon
a program of educa tion beginning
with the smallest children . He ta ught
mili tarism, the theory of the master
the strength of her people will Brial values in which free people believe.
He robbed youth of the right to learn
to think for themselves.
Other nations, too, are recognizing
the power of education . Russia has
made tremendous progress through
the education of her people in both
cultural and technical fields . The vast
achievements of the Soviet "Union in
the present conflict would have been
utterly impossible without the widespread educational foundations of the
last two decades. And Russia continues to develop her educational proB-24 ,

(rra m

Britain is embarking upon the boldest educational program in all her
history—a plan which will almost
double expenditures for education.
Why? Because the war has taugh t
her the value of every human resource . She knows that only through
the stronght of her people, will Britain be able to maintain a place of
leadership in the world. Winston
Churchill recently called Britain 's
plan the "most comprehensive scheme
of universal education over devised by
and for a responsible government. We
cannot understand the world and its
inventions, nor maintain our place
in the world in those complex times
without such education."
There is power in education . To fail
to utilize this power for creative good
is the greatest folly an individual , a
community, a state , or a nation can

A few weeks ago, Maroon an d Gold
presented some of the trials and tribulations of our student teachers, and
if you think they were hard, yo u
should be with those teachers now—
they really have troubles .
One of the first reports we have
to make is that of Betty Zong. She
is teaching in the Commercial Department at Birdsboro , Penna . You
have heard of the expression "famous last words" but Betty has one of
her own—"famous first day. "
Over the week-end we interviewed
Mr . Enso Frosini who says he is having the time of his life teaching at

Scuttlebutt has it that the Navy

which they have, without a doubt,
been advised to read one of the "better" novels.
Hero arc the helpful hints:
(1) You will find that after you have
crawled wearily out of your "better", your troubles haVe just begun.
(2) There is another task ahead—
that of writing a paper concerning
the purpose of the book and numerous fascinating things about it.
It is this latter point that I am
concerned about.
(3) Without a great deal of experience you will find writing a satisfactory book report difficult to say
the least.
(4) It takes brain power , technique,
and a tremendous amount of 'bluff. 1
(5) You can 't just write a book report
without expert advice and guidance.

A Notre Dame joke we enjoy had
to do with an Army draftee who was
being given a vision test.
"Can you read that sign?" the Doc
asked as a placard appeared on the

looked somewhat like this: WJOEDJIEKOWICZ.
"See it," replied the new wearer
of the khaki ; "Gosh, I know the guy.
We played together in the backfield
on the first team."

Ideal Girl
Male students in some residence

voted for the features they liked in
their ideal girl. From the reports of

had to do to be popular at K. U. is
to wear a blue sweater and a blue

HUSKY DIAMONDMEN BEGIN TRAINING
Don't Let It
Get You Down
Others Overcame Ph ysica l
Handicaps and Won
Baseball Fame
Physical handicaps are too frequen tly looked upon as obstacles to a
baseball career. Some are. B ut very
often it depends entirely upon the
individual . . If sufficient love of the
game plus will and determination
are present, many a handicap may be
overcome. Here are a few of the fine
ballplayers who refused to give up.
Whitey Kurowski, of the St. Louis
Cardinals , f ell* off a fen ce when eight
years of age and badly gashed his
right arm above the wrist. Two years
later the arm became very sore and
a bad case of osteomyelitis (rotting
away of the bone) in the right ulna
was discovered. About three inches
of bone structure were cut away. By
some quirk of nature, however, some
hard muscles knitted together where
bone should be . . Physicians cceisider
it a miracle that Whitey can throw
at all, let alone whip the ball across
the diamond as he does. Kurowski hit
the home run that ended the 1942
World Se r ies , has been in the Major
League two full season, and has played in the World Series of both years.
When in the prime of his career,
George Sisler, a member of Baseball' s Hall of Fame and one of the
greatest hitters of all time, had to
drop out of the game for a full season (1923) because of eye trouble
which left his sight forever badly
impaired. Yet he played Major League
ball until 1930 and Minor League ball
until 1932,
Charley Ruffing, the great Yankee
pitcher had two toes blown off in
a mining accident long before he ever
saw the Yankee Stadium. Mordecai
(three-fingered) Brown had two fingers on his right hand blown off in a
mining accident , but got remarkable
stuff on the ball with three fingers.
He quit mining to become one of the
greatest pitchers of all time.
Mickey Cochrane and Ducky Medwick both suffered almost fatal head
injuries kept him out of the 1933 and
height of the respective careers, but
came through and went on back for
more. After Chick Fewster, Yankee
infieldcr—outfielder , was almost killed by a pitched ball in 1920, he played
with a silver plate in his head and refused protection in the form of a helmet . The inj ury probably beat him
out of stardom, but he played in the
Majors until 1927 and in the Minors
until 1929.
In a hunting accident in 1932, Charley Gelbert , star shortstop of the 1931
Champion Cardinal Team, blew away
his loft Instep and sent a bullet
through the call of his loft leg. Those
injuries kept him out of the 1933 nnd
'34 seasons, but he camo back later

In the spring a young man 's fa ncy
turns to—but wait , this is supposed
to be an article on the college obstacle course. ?
This week the fellows began observing nature during P. T. class, only not like the students in Dr. Kuster 's
classes. The Navy boys do it the hard
way—while running up and down
hills , crossing brooks on narrow
planks, crawling through tunnels and
climbing ropes .
The obstacle course starts at the
lower athletic field where the first
obstacle, a high board , has to be
climbed . Then the course follows a
dirt lane overlooking Lightgtreet Rd.
After winding in and around the
grove including a peek at the pergola,
it' s back to the old Athletic field!
Some sunny afternoon if you decide
to stroll through the grove remember
—"travel at your own risk." The
Navy, it seems, overcomes the obstacles under the watchful eye of the
stop watch .
If you have concluded that the obstacle is rather complicated , you are
entirely correct . Just ask one of the
boys who has tried it .

Robert Tyre Jones, known familiarly to sport fans as "Bobby " Jones ,
predicts a boom for golf after the war
and also sees it as an aid by the government in occupational therapy.
Bobby Jones is the only man to hold
a grand slam in golf , four maj or
championships in one year. He is
participant of over 100 cups and dozens of medals and right now is an
important cog in the Red Cross Drive .

Schedule in the
Making

Field Being Re*sodded
Af ter sending out a call for baseball candidates, "Doc" Nelson greeted close to 40 men up at the fieldhouse. With the weather being a little
on the rainy side, practice was confined to the shaping of plans concern ing the ensuing season. The men were
told what was on the schedule in
regard to practice sessions which
began on the afternoon of the 20th.
3 Vateraj i"- Return
Most of the candidates, in fact all
but one, are Navy V-12 .trainees . The
lone exception being a civilian student who is aiming for the hurler's
spot . In the crowd there are 3 members of last year's squad returning.
Paul Klinefelter, who also put in a
season with the basketball squad , attempting to hold down first base, Joe
Stulb, second string catcher last year
and Technme, an infielder.
Now that the fleet men are eligible
for athletic participation in college
spor ts, a fairly good squad should
be assembled from both groups of
boys. Outfielders seem to be plentiful with not much competition for
batting or infield positions, As far as
the batteries are concerned, they will
have to do a little extra work to
whip in shape due to a late start. A
likely pitching prospect was lost when
AS Parker left at the close of last
trimester.
With the field being resbdded and a
nice looking schedule appearing on
the horizon , Bloomsburg S. T. C.
should be looking forward to a colorful and successful baseball campaign.

Litwhiler 's Record
A product of BSTC who hit the big
time and stuck is Danny Litwhiler of
the World Champion St. Louis Cardinals . One lad who Bloomsburg and
"Doc" Nelson will never forget.
Danny was born August 31, 1916
at Ringt own, Penna. He is 510%"
tall, weighing 190 lbs. His eyes and
hair are brown. He is strictly a righthanded player batting and throwing
from the right* side. Dan Litwhiler
comes from Pennsylvania Dutch
being interested in hunting and fishing during the off season . He graduated from BSTC in 1938 with a Bachelor of Science degree and married
Dorothy Lynch, October 10, 1940.
Starting playing organized ball in
1936, he compiled an enviable record
as a hitter and fielder. In his firs t season in the majo rs he hit safely in 21
consecutive games, hit a home run
in every National League ball park ,
1941, Accepted 317 chances in 151
games without an error in 1942, and
played 187 consecutive games without an error for new major league
records . He ' tied National League
record for most years leading in fielding per centage by outfielder in 100
or more games. (1942-43)
While participating in 454 games
Danny hit an average of .289 with tho
willow and pulled down .984 chasing
fly balls. Both these per centages are

MEN!!

If you smile at him , he thinks you 're
flirting.
If you don 't flirt , ho thinks you're
an iceberg.
If you lot him kiss you, he wishes you
were more reserved.
If you don't he'll seek consolation
elsewhere.
If you flatter him , ho thinks you're
simple.
If you don't, ho thinks you don't understand him.
If you talk of love and romance, ho
thinks you'ro asking him to marry you.
If you lo't him make lovo to you , ho
thinks you are cheap.
If you don't ho 'U go to the girl who
will
If you go out with other follows, ho
thinks you oro fickle .
If you don 't ho thinks no one will
hnvo you.
Men , God bless thorn — they don 't
know what thoy want.

NIGHT

The fingers of night have touched
t?ie earth ,
The sun has gone away,
,
But only to return again
At the first thought of day.
The moon is large and bright
As it shines up in the sky,
And the stars, with a heavenly light
Shine, as in thoir beds they lie .
The world is in slumber deep,
All evil of day is gone.
If we could only keep
The peaco that is lost with dawn.

A. Maj or, daughter of Mrs. Edna
