College Community in Special
Chapel Services on
April 14th
The College Community held services in memory of the Late President of the United States at«a special
assembly held Saturday morning, April 14 at 10:40 a.m .
Mr . Franklin D. Roosevelt's tragic
death shocked the world. He had said
that there was no other way that he
would rather die than in the service
of his country.
Vice-president Truman taking his
oath of office as President of the
United States said he would try to
carry on as he believes President
Roosevelt would have done.

At a recent Business Education
Club meeting June Novak was elected
the new vice president to fill the
vacancy created by the graduation
of Enso Frosini in February.
Awards were presented by Mr.
Rygiel, club adviser, to the winners
of the typing contest. Those who received Certificates of Honor and pins
were Isabel Gehman, R ose Marie
Kraiser, Eileen Falvey, and Charlotte
Reichart . Isabel Gehman was the
champion typist of the contest. She
typed 81 words a minute for ten minu t es.
Mr . Rygiel explained about the
Commercial Contest which is to be
held here at the college on May 5. He
explained the types of tests that will
be conducted , when the contest originated , the prizes to be awarded, the
number of schools that will participate, and other matters relative to
the Contest . Two committees were
appoin terf'from the club to help with
the contest, they are the Hospitality
and t h e Gi r ls' Accommodations Committees .
Two short skits were presented
demonstrating the common faults of
an interview and of a secretary taking dictation. Those who participated
in the skits were Eileen Falvey,
Jeanne Reitz, Isabel Gehman , and
Catherine Longo .
An interesting contest on Proper

ANNA AND THE KING OF SIAM,
by Margaret Landon . (John Day
Company, $3.75)
Fantastic with the cruel beauty of
the Orient was the Court of the King
of Siam . Primly Victorian , resolutely
sclfrcspecting and thoroughly British ,
was the young and pretty widow who
agreed to serve the King as governess
to his royal children and his many
conc u bines.
With her own son, Anna Lconawens
made her home in* this pageant of
pagan powers and terror . Her calmly
inflexible character prevailed . Even
the King—a hu man thunderbolt of
energy and vanity and unbridled actions—had to compromise with her
rigid principles.
In A pna and the King of Siam there
are scenes of uproarious ^omedy as
well as moments of enhancing beauty,
of tenderness, of ferocity, of abasemen t. I-fere is a first hand revelation
of life behind the brass.-studded gates
of sumptuous oriental Court of eighty
years ago . The scene in the beginning
is Bangkok , 1862.

Short Short Story
She was a lush little thing; soft
eyes, honey colored hai r, tri m figure
—dainty beyond description and she
was alone .
The day was lonely and cold. She
wanted companionship and shelter.
She slipped lithcly in to the big
friendly building behind a group of
laughing girls . Surely one of these
girls who had so much would share a
smile and a place to rest with her.
It didn 't take long for the girls to
notice her . She wasn 't the typo you
would overlook. They seemed friendly
enough , and she was drawn into their
gay little group and swept down tho
long corridor .
A door loomed suddenly before her.
The n, as suddenly, she was beyond
it alone,
Someone whistled and then she
know that the laughing group behind
her on tho opposite side of tho door
had played a cruel trick!
This was no place for a lone female! She was on U. S. Government
properly. She was in the Navy—and
we don 't mean the WAVES.
That' s why our President sent her
from the Assembly Wednesday morning. Nice girls just don 't wander
around third deck like that , poor little thing ! If a mnn in tho K-9's h a d
known of her plight this never would
have happened.
And to that admirable young sailor
who extended her his strong support
and 'i CnrrJod her from tho laughing
eyes of a hostile group, wo say "SALUTAMUS VOS!"

Cheyney Quartet Triumphs
Four former members of the Negro

State Teachers College triumphed
over four students of the West Chester State Teachers College in a Negro
Life and History contest. Questions
in tho contest involved the life and
accomplfshment of nationally and internationally known Negroes from
the earliest records to the present.
Mrs. Valentino , the organizer of the
program , gave prizes—a lai'ge orange
layer cake to the winner, and five
cream puffs to the loser. She explained herself by saying, "When I tried to
think of what the young people would

that they wore students in school.

Mis-haps by Visitors
Real Campfire Style
Help Nelsonmen
The 1945 edition of the Teachers
College 's Navy-manned baseball team
defeated Berwick ACF, 12-1, in a
Spring training exhibition contest on
the College field yesterday afternoon.
The game was marked by spotty
play on the part of the visiting industrial workers who are just starting
to get into condition . Almost all of
of their misplays figured in the Husky scoring.
Fielding conditions were under par
as the work on the grass infield has
not been completed . .
The Huskies won about as they
pleased. Down one run as they came
to bat in first, they promptly proceeded to take a lead which they never relinquished . Singles by Zagoudis and
Pratico, combined with a base on
balls and an error, produced two runs .
Three miscues and a well placed
bunt which Opalka laid down for a
hit were good for three more tallies
in the second and this was followed
by a five-run outburs t in the third .
In the big inning ten of the Huskies went to the plate. Klinefelter and
Strong opened with singles and came
on home through the medium of a
passed ball and wild pitch. Opalka
fanned but Zagoudis reached first on
a boot by Millington and Saul Mariaschin got three bases when Chappel
dropped his lofty fly in deep right.
Davis struck out. Terhune laced a
liner to center and made the round
when the ball skipped through Bankes. A single by Fleming in the first
sent Opalka in with a run and a walk
and error, woven in with a double
st eal, produced the final Husky run
in the twelfth.
The contest did not throw much
light on the Husky nine's potentialities. The infield looked fair but the
fly chasers had little opportunity to
display their wares .
The practice game, however, served
as a tune up for the game with Elizabethtovvn College here next Tuesday.

With laughter . . .

Sometimes the weather plays tricks
on you, sometimes it's your eyes, but
last issue it was either the printer or
someGremlin Gus
no matter
one "dood it"! !
A picture was printed; as planned ,
it was somewhat of a "leg" picture.
Not the usual pin-up but no one can
deny—it was a leg picture .
Surely you've heard of a "miscue,"
well , that picture turned out the perfect example.
We wanted to show you Jim Trin- .
ity's knee , via torn "bell bottoms," via
barbed-wire fences. But you can't hit
the nail on the head if the picture is
cut in half . ¦
In spite of all this , the fact remains,
he's still a protege of Emily Post.
For further information or facts to
put 2 plus 2 together, see the picture
above and last issue's column "WHAT
GOES OVER THE FENCE LAST?"
P.S.—Hope you make the nail your
bull's-eye and get your 4! !
