Whenever we buy something we always want the most and the best for the amount of money we pay. To do this we always shop around finding the best bargains before we buy, endeavoring to stretch the American dollar to its elastic limit. The opinions of our friends very often have a large influence upon the decisions of our purchases , hoping to profit by their experiences. One of the statements a salesman hears very often is, "I want nothing but the best. " The American people have become so quality conscious that laws are enforced demanding the quality to be marked on many products. Quality is also a big factor in buying, sin ce everyon e wants t h e most for their money; we always check closel y to be c ertain w e h ave all we deserve. This however , is not true of education since we seldom get our money 's worth of that. Most of us came here only al ter we had closely checked this college against other colleges. Information for this was gathered from various sources. Since we chose to come here after a reasonable investigation the quality of education that can be attained here is evidently satisfactory. The policy of getting the most for our money, that we follow in purchasing, is not followed in education. No one ever gets their money 's worth in education since the amount of knowledge that may be acquired by any student depends not upon the institution but upon the student. We would rather cop>{. an assignment , so we could keep that date tonig ht, than we would di g it out for ourselves and learn something. All of us have been guilty of this at one time or another. Unlike material things, knowledge cannot be taken from us. It is a treasured possession which never decreases in value, The onl y keys required to unlock the vast store of knowledge which has accumulated throug h the ages are time , thoug ht , and effort. The next time you allow knowledge to pass you by, remember the future belongs to those who prepare for it. He rounded a bend at close to fifty. A sudden skid and the car overturned.

Members Hold Services for College The Student Christian Association , an «xtra curricular organization on campus, is sponsoring a lenten service every Wednesday afternoon in Carver Hall auditorium from 12:25 to 12:45. The Knox Fellowship of the Presbyterian Church were in charge of the service of the eighth of March. Mary Grace Aimers played the organ.

Four of these hurlers are veterans from last season. The other three are freshmen, hoping to gain a berth on a team that racked up thirteen successive victories last year without a defeat . Among the experienced men returning is Michael Evans. He is a right-hander from Wilkes-Barre. This is Mike's third season . Mike had five wins during last year's campaign. One outstanding feat of this hurler's career took place in a game against Wilkes College last spring. The Huskies were behind 5-4 in the last inning and had one man on base. All Mike did was belt a homer and give Bloom a 7-5 win. Southpaw William Byham will begin his second year as a member of the pitching staff. Bill hails from Kane and recorded six wins last year. Besides his pitching ability, Bill is qui te a handy-man with a bat in his hands. Another southpaw returning to Coach Redman is "Lefty " Henry Brunn who bails from Nanticoke.

WALLER HALL LOUNGE Sponsored by Day Men College Community Invited ——— by Jack Reese ¦• by Marie Mattfo i.-. — It is the opinion of this writer that the motion picture, "Hamlet ," should go down in history as one of the screen 's finest. This man Lawrence Olivier reveals in his superb abilities as an actor just how amateurish and ineffective some (or most) of the other members of his profession really are. Before seeing "Hamlet, " my ears pick ed u p the "opinions " of the various critics running about loose. The picture was contrasted to "Henry V," ;which I did see) starred in and directed by the same person, Lawrence Jli v ier . Whereas "Henry V" was spectacle, background, and magnanimity, "Hamlet" was sheer acting and portrayal genius. A man named Shakespeare wrote both works. "Hamlet," possibly Shakespeare 's greatest piece of work , was a natural for cinema production. To obtain the right effect, the play could never be filmed in anything but black and white. The scenes and sets never varied greatly. In shor t, the picture is a success or failure purely on the capabilities of its acting personnel. As I said previously, it should be rated as one of the screen's finest triumphs. When you stop to realize that Olivier starred in AND directed the picture, it may strike you as to the fine abilities of the man. It has always amazed me the way in which an excellent performer is able to let himself fall naturally and effortlessly into such a dynamic, revealing role as the one of the conflict-torn , wily Hamlet created by the master of them all, Shakespeare. To those who have seen the picture and thought about it in all its phases, which impressed you more, the superb presentation in acting and directing by Lawrence Oliver or are you reminded once again of the competence and style in the subj ect approach of the incomparable William Shakespeare? Campus Talent Shines How It 's Done . . ? On College Broadcast Over Station W.C.N.R. The weekly college hour broadcast over st ation WCNR last Tuesd ay featured a group of talented college people who presented a well-balanced musical program. The "College Hour " is presented every Tuesday afternoon from 2:30 to 3:00 p.m. over the local radio station. Mi§§ Alice Johnston is the faculty sponsor. Those hearing the program would find it very similar to that which was presented in assembly on February 28 except for the fact that it was a radio broadcast and therefore found no need of being in a "su pposed" radio form. Thus, no "word from our sponsor , The Nitecap Brewing Company." Ben Burness was the college announcer. Those who participated in the program include: Edgar (Sonny) Coleman who sang two solos, a duet by Joe Curilla and Claire Davis, and also in the line of vocal selections the "Campus Four," Dick Wagne r, Charles Edwards, Emory Rarig, and Jack Wintersteen sang a number. In contrast to the vocal selections Emory Rarig played "The Triumph" on the organ. Tom Jones, a .sophomore, proved to be very versatile on the mirimba accompanied on the piano by Dick Wagner. This group of noteworthy artists are congratulated for their fine performance.
