Mr. S hortess S ees K eller 's Animal Act Televised in Phila. . Mr. S. Irvine Shortess had the enviable experience on Saturday, Feb. 17. in Philadelphia , of seeing Mr. Gorge Keller's wild animal act being televised from the huge stage of Convention Hall. The actual length of the finished show; the BIG TOP, w a s one hour , from 12-1 P.M., but this was made possible only by long hours of rehearsal and setting up of equipm ent , a process which Mr. Shortess watched the night before the show went on, and part of the next morning. Mr. Shortess compared the huge amount of equipment needed for a television broadcast to the small amount required^ for radio. He says that while one announcer and one technician , equipped with a microphone, can go almost anywhere and broadcast a radio show, a television show requires the use of a studio and 15 to 20 technicians to handle all the elaborate equipment. Because Convention Hall is used several times a week for basketball games and other exhibitions, the. four cameras and at least 2V circuits for this broadcast had to be set up Friday evening and Saturday morning, and Mr. Shortess was impressed by the efficiency and skill of this "rush j ob." The show is photographed , he said , by four cameras operated at once, and the image that is broad casts chosen by an "editor ," who rapidly pushes a panel of buttons to select the best of the four swiftly changing pictures as proj ected on a small screen. A novel technique* was used in photographing Mr. Keller 's animal act. The cameras were set inside the cage bars, close against an invisible glass wall, so that the television viewer received the startling impression of being inside the cage, with no iron bars separating him from the big cats and other beasts. College Plans to Admit Freshmen In Summer Sessions Dr. Harvey A. Andruss has announced a plan by which high school sen iors will be enabled to start their college training immediately following gr a d u a t i o n from high school. The inauguration of this plan will permit June graduates to complete their higher education more quickly than would be possible under the regular school program. According to Dr. Andruss, freshmen, enrolling under the accelerated plan , would begin classes on June 4. This session beginning on June 4 would last for three weeks. Another session, six weeks in length , would commence on June 25. The accelerated schedule is not confined to the Bloomsburg campus; rather, it is a pattern of education followed on campuses throughout the country . The program is especially helpful in filling the present emergency created by a shortage of teachers , and in shortening the training period of those students who may be later drafted for defense duties.

Know Your C.G.A. The legislative, executive , and judicial body of the C.G.A. is the College Council. Since our form of college government is community or cooperative, the member^ ship of the College" Council includes both faculty and students. Student members are the five C.G.A. officers, who are also officers of the Council; the presidents of the day and dorm organizations; the president, one woman and one man representative from each class; and the Maroon and Gold editor. Each student in college is represented on the Council in three ways: by the C.G.A. officers elected by the student body ; by the day or dorm group president ; and by three class representatives. Faculty members of the Council are the administrative officers most concerned with student activities and student welfare: the Dean of Instruction; the l)ean and Assistant Deans of Women ; the Dean and Assistant Deans of Men; and the Directors of Business, Elementary, and Secondary Education. This combined membership of twenty-two students and ten faculty makes possible a better relationship between students and administrative officers and also more efficient action in regard to college government. If there is a division of opinion , it has been some students and faculty against other students and faculty, and never students against faculty . According to the C.G.A. constitution ( printed in the Appendix of The Pilot) the duties and responsibilities of the College Council are to: 1. Represent the members of the Community Government Association. 2. Recommend and a p p r o v e plans for the general supervision of all student organizations. 3. Formulate policies for the Association. 4. Administer the approved policies of the Association. 5. Refer matters which affect the entire college community to the Association for consideration. 6. Act as judicial agent of the Association on the initiative of the College Council or at the request of tho President of the College. 7. Recommend necessary changes in the constitution of the Association. The Council is given the necessary authority to carry out these duties. As Dr. Andruss said, "We (the President of the College and the Board of Trustees) will delegate to students all the authority they need. Students , however , must be willing to accept and be responsible for this authority." As a legislative and executive body, the Council acts on behalf of the student body, sets up policies and makes recommendations concerning student activities and student welfare, approves C.G.A. committee chairmen and supervises their activities, works on the Community Activities Budget , sends delegates to conferences, (Continued on page 2) Citizenship Ed. Is Discussion Top ic at Ben Franklin P.T.A. On Friday, February 16, the P.T.A. from th© Benjamin Franks lin Training School and delegates from other units in this area held a p anel discussion on the subj ect "Citizenship Education. " Members of the panel included Dr. Ernest Engelhard l, Dr. Ralph S. Herre, Michael Dorak, and Jack Williams. Dr. Herre discussed the obj ect and scope of citizenship education as it is being developed at this college in cooperation with the Teachers College at Columbia University. Dr. Herre explained that citizenship with emphasis on the political phase, can be taught in the same manner as any other subj ect. Three elements have to be considered: first , the knowledge of the premises in the tradition of liberty ; second, the attitudes that affirm these premises; third , the skilled use and application of this knowledge and attitude. Dr. Herre represented our college last year along with delegates from seven other Teachers Colleges in a citizenship proj ect at Columbia University. In the eight weeks which the project lasted, a program was drawn up for citizenship education for use on the campuses of teachers colleges. B.S.T.C. was the only state teachers college in Pennsylvania that was chosen to partake in the proj ect. In the panel discussion, Dr. Engelhard t spoke about the operation of this project as it was witnessed by him in the high school at South Orange, New Jersey.

They contain basic truths where the good are always rewarded and the bad are alwayspuni shed : the moral of these books can be applied in daily living.

How Much Do You Know About Music? Bill Mlkvy, Temple Cage Ace, Says His Sister Taught Him Shellymen Conclude Season with 68-57 Win Over Kutztown Teachers Huskies I n Action Bill Mlk vy, "The Temple Owl 1 Without A Vowel" as the sports I writers call him , is the famous I brother of one of our senior girl s I here on campus, Lillian Mlkvy. In I a recent interview, Bill explained I just how he got into the national I basketball spotlight. I Bill was born and raised in the I Lehigh Valley town of Palmer ton. 1 He was one of eight children , the I second youngest of the family. 1 During the early days of his school I life , he and Lil used to go down to one of t he tow n 's playgrounds and shoot baskets for hours on end. Bill admits Lil was the more proficient of the two in the beginning, but now that's a different story. As he progr essed to high school , Bill gained added skill and i n ter est in 'the sport. He became so good in fact , that he was selecI ted captain of the Palmerton High I School team in his sophomore I year. The next year he received the same honor and also made All-Lehigh -Valley starting team. During his junior year he swept the scoring honors of that district. His senior year was in much the same pattern as the preceding 1 two. Bill was again elected cap1 tain, was All-Valley, high scorer . I and above everything else, he was I selected All-State center. I The 6 ft., 4 in. ace then received I approximately 63 offers from top I colleges throughout the country to I play basketball with them. How1 ever, since Bill wanted to become I a dentist and wanted to remain in 1 Pennsylvania, he selected Temple. In his first year for Temple, while playing on the Freshman team , Bill was chosen the most valuable player at the Norristown tourney. Last year, Big Bill set the pace for the Owls with 391 points and made the All-State team as starting center. Now all those records of the I paat are ju st so many accojnplish1 ments, for this year is his banner 1 season. .His 27 average point total i per game is tops in the country i for the present, and he has led in that departmen t for over two months. He is also first in rebounds and second in assists. While playing with Temple, Bill has broken practically every record that ever existed in Convention Hall. Recently, in a tilt with St. Joseph's, he tallied 43 points, best mark ever made in the Hall. In thi s battle , he netted 18 field goals, also a record. Thus far this season he has chalked up 623 points, with just one game remaining. Perhaps the greatest of all the honors he has ever had carne on Saturday, Febr uary 17, when his entire family, with the exception of a sister who lives in Missouri, were present to see him hoop in 26 markers against C.

Compliments of Waffle Gri lle Bison F rosh Again Trample Husky Pups In Pup s * Third Loss The terrific pace set by the Indiana Teachers finally paid off in victory for the Indiana team over the Huskies. The Red and White presented one of the finest teams to appear in Centennial Gym this year. LPCKER ^ H-jj NQO vAMttAM * ^ia|j Ijjfilj Mgf*^ * by Harry Brooks Last week , the Huskies repeated their earlier win over the Wilkes College Colonels, and have now dumped the Wilkes-Barre organization in four successive games, two this year, and two last season. The score was 85-69. Thompson took scoring honors away from Butler who had been high consistently for the last several games. However, he and three other Huskies hit for the double figures in the 16 point win. This victory brought the Maroon and Gold chart to an 8-7 record for the current campaign , excluding last Wednesday's battle with the Kutztown Golden Avalanche on the Centennial court. With the basketball season complete, we find that sophomore Chuck Daly is high scorer for the season. Chuck, who was ineligible to play varsity ball last season because he previously had attended St. Bonaventure College in» New York, was one of the consistent cogs in the Maroon and Gold machine after he got started. Intramural baseball is once more into the limelight on the Hill. Last Wednesday after classes, the schedule got underway with two games being played in the big gym. The teams of which are eleven, are divided into two leagues — the American, and the National. After the fin al league tilts are played on March 15th, the champion of the two leagues will play for the intramural title. Dr. Wagner is the sponsor and he has amassed a fine array of assistants to help him with one of most extensive intramural basketball programs ever held at B.S.T.C. Coach Bob Redman 's prospects for baseball pitchers and catchers are now working out in the training school gym in preparation for the April opener. Many of the old candidates who were out in previous years are assembled along with the newer prospects. Some of the old standbys include Don Kearns, Stan Le Van . Mike Evans, and Buck Byham. Some of the newcomers include Ziggy Ziegenfuse, Roy Sanders, and several others. Congratulations to John Hoch, Dea n of Men , assistant coach, local disc jo ckey, and man of many talents who recently celebrated his ( ? ) birthday. The big all high school tournament upon the Hill starts on Monday evening. The schedule of games is now set, and the battles will get under way from now and almost every night until March 17th, the day after we go home for Easter vacation. The football , basketball banquet held in the Caldwell Consistory last night was a huge success with members of the Husky squads and the Bloomsburg High school teams. Among the speakers were the famed Doc Carlson , head basketball mentor at Pittsburgh University, and Bo McMillan former coach of the Indiana Hoosier football team and the Washington Redskins of the pro ranks , were the featured speakers.

For Fast Dependable Dry Cleaning Service The Huskies closed out the 1950-51 Basketball season on Wednesday night at the Centennial gym by sinking a determined Kutztown team 68-57. It was a close contest all the way, with the better conditioned Huskies showing too much stamina at the finish for the Golden Avalanche. The play see-sawed back and forth throughout the first three quarters as each team took its turn sinking baskets. The Huskies scored two quick goals to start the game, but soon found themselves behind as the Kutztown team pumped four quick shots through the hoop. The Huskies pecked away at this early Kutztown lead and led at the one quarter mark by a slim margin of two points. 18-16. The Husky offense picked up somewhat in the second period, as they increased their lead over the fast-breaking Kutztowners. It was during this period that the Huskies started to score on the fastbreak. At half-time the Shellymen had a four point lead, 34-30. Immediately following the intermission the two teams resumed their track meet pace. The speed of Bu tler , Thompson , Linkch or st , and Boychuck was more than enough to equal that of the visiting team. It was Butler who capitalized on most of these fast-breaks. The Huskies led at the end of this period by a shaky three points, 52-49. The Huskies proved in the last quarter that the vigorous conditioning program of Coach Shelly was invaluable, as they literally ran the legs off of the visitors from Kutztown. Chuck Daly again led the Huskies in scoring, thi s time wit h 23 points, to increase his lead over Don Butler for individual scoring honors for the season. tDaly was followed closely by Dave Linkchorst with 11 points, and Bill Byham and Don Butler with 10 and 9 points respectively. This win gave the Huskies a season record of nine wins and seven losses, for a .563 percentage. It was a fitting climax to a fairly successful season which saw the Shellymen with a record at one time of five losses and only two victories.

What typ e programs do you like best." Dave Evans—I think we should have more student participation in our chapel programs. The type ox programs which seem to go over best with everyone are the various typ es of talent shows. Alexander Swaboski — I think we should have more participation , such as quiz shows, and more like the one on "Months in Review." Russ Looker — Student partici pation develops not only the student as an entertainer, but does a grea t deal towards the advancement of preparing him socially and emotionally tor his fu ture j ob as a teacher. Don ald Blyler — I think we should have more student participation in chapel programs in the fu ture. Everybody seems to enj oy it, both audience and participants. Let's have more talent shows —¦ they seem to go over well with everybody. Joyce Sluytev — In my opini on , we should have more student participation in assembly —| community singing and humorous programs made up of hidden talent of the students who haven 't been "discovered." The big question is not finding the talent , but presenting it to the whole college. Dorothy Watkins — I think| everyone enj oys assembly programs in which the students participate. It gives them a chance to show th e talent they have. The audience seems to appreciate it more. We have more interest in the people we associate with. Speaking of ? ?
