A* Russell Has Article Printed in Pennsylvania Farmer Dr. J. Almus Rvissell, a member of the English departmen t at Bloomsburg State Teachers College, recently had an article published in the Pennsylvania Farmer, a bi-weekly periodical, entitled "Boy Goes to Meeting." Dr. Russell is an authority on New England folk-ways, a fact which is exemplified in his article. His adept handling of humorous anecdotes undoubtedly amused many folks, who were able to remember similar incidents in their past. The article is a flashback on "Sunday-going-to-meeting." This meant weekly Church attendance, anticipated almost as much for sociability as for religious purposes. After a hearty breakfast, preparations proceeded for departure to Church. "I curried the horse, Father blacked the family shoes, Mother placed the large soapstone and the smaller handstones on the kitchen hearth to heat. And sister spread the buffalo robes to warm over chairs in front of the fire. These were to cover our knees in the drafty sleigh.

During the past decade, the organization has helped to rebuild several universities devastated by the war, providing books and supplies and furnishing funds for dormitories, food , and clothing. At the Harrisburg convention , details of the world situation among st u d e n t s , especially In Southeast Asia, were given. Following this, all the representatives held a general discussion on methods by which we can help alleviate these conditions.

New Lounge Restrictions Recommended to President The second regular meeting of the College Council was held in room L on Monday, October 22, at 7 P.M. The Lounge: The lounge problem has been a main topic of discussion at a special meeting and at both regular meetings of the Council. Jane Seely, chairman of the lounge committee, presented the report *of the committee. The Committee report included a st atement of the problem, the responsibilities involved, recommendations for prohibitions, penalties for violations, and means of administration and enforcement. Simply stated, the problem concerns ways and means of keeping the elevated portion of the lounge in the best possible condition ; of keeping the new furniture from being damaged by cigaret burns, knives, pencils, food sta ins , etc.; of setting up a policy to regulate the use of the lounge and recommend penalties for violations of regulations. The committee feels that the care of the lounge is primarily the responsibility of the students who make use of its facilities. These stu den t s, however, h ave f ailed to assume their full responsibilities; therefore, the committee feels that the College Council must administer and enforce whatever policy is recommended for adoption. Eating, drinking, publicly displaying affection, and rough-hous(Continued on page 4) Male Quartet Is Virst of Series Of Civic Concerts The students of B.S.T.C. had the opportunity to enj oy the first of a series of concerts sponsored by the Civic Music Association at the Bloomsburg High School Auditorium on Monday evening, October 15, at 8:15 P.M.

Not only is it famous, but it also has more return engagements than any other male quartet in the country. The group presented a program of classical and modern hits from Bach to Broadway with fine musicianship, impeccable taste, and true virtuosity. The leading tenor of the group is Attilio Baggiore. Gene Tobin is the tenor, Vernon Sanders is bari tone, and Bruce MacKay is the bass. All four singers have established reputations in the concert halls of the country.

Leave a Lastin g Memory Each year many gra duates of Bloomsburg State Teachers College return to the campus to renew old friendshi ps t h ey ma d e while students here at college. Some of these graduates are remembered by all , ot h ers b y f ew , an d some who failed to make lasting friendshi ps by none. In the years to come , "Homecoming Day " an d "Alumni Day " will mean a great deal more to us. ' Will you find friends when you return? And more imporfant still , will your former classmates have good memories of you? Frien dshi p is like wealth , except that it fills your heart instead of your pocketbook. The four years we spend in college offer us a ch ance to m a k e f rien d sh ips t h at l ast t h roug hout our life. The people in your classes, your roommate , an d t h e peop l e you meet can all become your friends if you are willing to make an effort. But college is not the only place for us to make friends , nor is it the onl y opportunity we have to be kind to others. If you will follow this simple rule : "Do unto others , as you would have others d o unto y ou ," you -wi ll have many f rien d s, an d even t h ose w h om you ju st meet will remember you for years to come. The old expression— "Bir ds of a feather flock together " is a basis for the assumption that your personality is portrayed throug h your friends. By keeping your standards high , you can be proud of the company you keeo. If one can make a suggestion , ma k e a list of t h e various pers onality traits that irritate you , an d also how you want others to respect you. Then analyze yourself and find those errors of which you ar e guilty. By being pl easant to ot h ers , you will find that your friends will treat you as you treat them. To be remembered is one thing, but it is for what you are remembered that counts. Don ' t let yourself become a bragger— if you really h ave ta l ent , others will speak for you and make it more interesting. When you begin sounding off with your woes , remem ber that your friend has his own troubles ; probabl y more than you. No one can escape entirel y f rom ta lk ing a b out ot h ers , but don 't be catty. If you can 't say somet hing good about a pers on d on 't say anyt hing. In dealing with friendship, MacCunn , in his book ' "The Ma king of Character, " has this to say — "Of all the human relationshi ps this is perhaps the one which most jealousl y resists dictation.^" No one likes to be bossed , so remember your friends ' rig hts when you are together. In the end , the only one you will have to dictate to will be yourself . From one of my friends I heard an expression which I believe is wort hwhile for us all to know : "On your way up the ladder of life , treat the people you meet justl y, for they mig h t b e t h e same pe ople you pass on your way down. " (rp) Hallowe 'en The mystic rites and ceremonies with which Hallowe 'en was ori ginall y observed had their ori gin among the Druids , centuries before the dawn of the Christian era. Tlie name is of Christian origin and refer s to the eve of All Hallows of All Saint 's Day, which falls on November 1. Among the Druids , it was the eve of the festival of Saman , the Lord of death , who called together at that time the souls of the wicked who had been condemned to inhabit the bodies of animals. It occurs at the time of the ancient autumn festival f oi the Drui ds , which was celebrated with merriment and feasting. Alt h oug h it marked the waning power of the sun and the beginn ing o f wint er , it was at the same time the occasion for surveying the harvest and was the natural occasion for a feast. They also associated ghosts, hob-goblins , witches , fairies , elves , and divinations with the nig ht , and these , appealing to the popular imag in ation , have largely survived in the celebration along with the harvest motif. Various methods of foretelling ' the future were used on Hallowe 'en and the results were accepted in all seriousness. One of the dishes served at supper in Ireland on that eve was known as Callcannon. It consisted of mashed potatoes , parsnips , and chopped onions. A ring, a thimble , a china pig, a doll , and a coin were stirred in it and when it was served , the one who found the ring was to be married within a year; the finder of the doll would have children ; the one who got the thimble would never marry, and whoever was fortunate enough to qet the coin would have wealth, The belief in witches still survives in some nearby localities. German farmers in eastern Pennsylvania paint signs on their barns to warn the witches away, although in recent years some of them have insisted that the signs were merely ornamental, A Pennsylvania belief is that if one goes out of the front door backward , picks up grass or dirt and wraps it in paper and puts it under the pillow one will dream with certainty of what the future holds. In Maryland , the girls put an eqg on the stove to fry and open the doors and windows wide. Then the man they are to marry will come in and turn the egg. Another superstition is that if one eats a crust of dry bread before going to bed on Hallowe 'en , any wish that one may have will be fulfilled . . Hallowe 'en in the present century has been made into an occasion for historical pageants having little or nothing to do with the magic lore of the season, By this time , the custom of a carnival parade on Hallowe 'en in fantastic costumes has become general in most parts of the country, The season has come to be regarded as a time for merry-making rather than for serious consultation of mag ic oracles. This is a modern development , but the custom of the children who go about the neighborhood wearing masks and fancy costumes and stopping at homes for app les, cookies , and candies is a survival from Hallowe 'en, seventeenth century style, Abroad Speaking of Operations WALLER HALL m AThisVoyage past summer, Ann Gengenby Calvin Kaiiyuck Does anybody have a hammer ?

The winning rooms were chosen on the basis of aiTangement , color scheme, neatness , and originality. Winn ers were selected by three groups: members of the Bloomsburg branch of the American Association of University Women , a group of faculty women, and members of th e dormitory House Committee. Representing the A.A.U.W. were Mrs. Willi am Beckley, Mrs. Jay Blom, Mrs. Edward M. Bundens, Mrs. Leon H. Maneval, Mrs. Harry W. Scott, and Mrs. E. F. Willinghoff. Included in the group of faculty women were Mrs. Paul E. Wagner, Mrs. Ralph S. Herre, Mrs. Edward A. Reams , Mrs, Clayton H. Hinkle , Miss Edna J. Hazen , and Mrs. Earl A. Gehrig. Representing the House Committee were Rose Domaleski, Elizabeth Baer, Jean Skeeba, Dorothy Watkins, Janice Johnson , and Pat Boyle. Eight dorm rooms were chosen by the three groups as winners. From these rooms, Mrs. Charles R. Beeman , of the Art Department , picked the following as prize rooms: Room 309, first prize ( Louise Seh ullery and Patrieia Edwards) ; Room 218, second prize ( Doris Bowman and Barbar a Sherman) ; Room 425, third prize (Nancy Unger and Irene Endler) ; Room 222; honorable mention ( Regin a H e r c h e l and Grace Heppe). Other members of the House Committee served as guides for the j udging groups as they viewed the rooms. These girls were Mildred Romanell, Peggy Lo u Noll , Jean Newhart , Betty Heil, Alice Quick, and Sara Jane Hoffman . After the judges had made their sele ction s, a tea was held in their honor in the second floor social room. The st udents who made plans for the tea were Antoinette Czerwinski , Olive Jean Fedrigan , and Rose Mary Snierski, ba ch , her parents, and young sis- ter enj oyed a trip abroad.

This year Tom, an avid Yankee baseball fan , saw a lineman 's dream come true. He started Millersville's 40-14 trouncing by recovering a fumble in the Marauder end-zone for a touchdown. John Nemetz, burly sophomore tackle, is one of the reasons that the hard-charging Husky line has allowed t h e ' opposition to gain very little yardage on the ground this year. Nothing pleases John more than to play both offensively and defensively from his tackle position. You can see his No. 95 making numerous tackles at our football games. He credits his coworkers in the Paint Gang of the PRR f or helping him during the past summer to prepare for the football season. John participated in both football and wrestling at Shamokin High, where he led the wrestling team to a district championship. Russ Verhousky, glue-fingered end from Coaldale, is having his best season at the terminal position. It seems that when this Junior is not catching passes for long gains, he is blocking the opposition 's punts. Last week against Shippensburg, Euss caught a 40yard pass from Spack and then out-ran several Red Raider defenders for 30 yards to . pay-dirt. Verhousky served 16 months with the Army occupational forces in Korea. While in the service he learned much about the end slot from two former West Point AUAmer*icans. Russ is an able performer for Mr. Shelley 's track Are You Hungry? Try a Meal in a Sandwich A SUBMARINE ROSE &.

The Johnstown back has completed more than half of his passes and made our longest run of the year, a 71-yard j aunt against Mansfield. His passing has accounted for two touchdowns and set up three additional score s, while Tom has crossed the goal line three times himself. Quite an accomplishment for a sophomore ! To tackle the hardrunning "Spook" is an exceptionally difficult task; it usually requires more than one man to knock him to the turf , so f u riou s and hard is his drive. The fifth member of our quintet this week is fullback Barney Osevala. Barney excelled in three sports at Shamokin High — football, baseball, and basketball. This work-horse of the backfield has run the ball more than any other back. He is the second leading scorer on the squad, with five touchdowns. Osevala played his best game in the 12-0 victory over Indiana last year. He completed his only pass of the season for a score and personally accounted for the other TD on a short line plunge after he had run 60 yards to set up the touchdown. Let's hope that Barney can give us a repeat performance this year! Genial economist Bob Redman 's "Touchdown.Plant" supplied more th an the dema nd , as his Husky laborers rolled out a 40-14 Homecoming victory over the Shippensburg Raiders. It marked the locals fo urth conferen ce win , but they still trail Indiana State Teachers by two points. In the latest splurge of triumph it was again swift Bob Lang, Blasting Barny Osevala, and Tom Spack , whose passing accomplishments led to five scores. Lang boosted his touchdown total to eight on runs of 20 yards and 5 yards,, while Osevala broke loose for substantial gains. To Spack, however, go the outstanding honors. His first pass attempt covered 77 yards as he passed to "Fingers" Verhousky and a score. He set up the second on a 38-yard run , and his passes to Brennen and Lambrinos set up the third and fourth , while he squirmed 8 yards for the fifth Husky score. First Quarter Spack received and came back t o the 20, where Bob Lang fumbled on the first running play and the Raiders recovered. On their first offensive try, the downstaters put 7 points on the board as Kopec passed to Mills and Russ added the point. Bloom 0, Raiders 7. Osev ala t ook the ki ck and came out to the Husky 33. After two running tries, Spack fired a pass to Verhousky, who outran his opponents to the pay dirt. Linkchorst added the point. 7 - 7 score. After an exchange of punts, the Huskies drove to their opponents ' 20 , where Bob Lang carried it over and Linkchorst converted to make it 14 - 7. Late in the period Spack passed to Lang, and Charley Brennen moved the ball to the Shippgnsburg 5. As the period ended, the score stood at 14 - 7, with the Huskies leading. Second Quarter . Osevala scored in two tries, from the 9. Linkchorst converted, Huskies lead , 21 - 7. The Raiders failed to score; and the Huskies, with Lambrinos' catch of Spa ck's pass on the 4, then scored as Lang rolled over with aid from the Husky front wall. The half ended. The score : 27 - 7. Third Quarter The line play became fierce in the period, and fumbles gave the Huskies the ball 8 yards out. Spack made this in one play. Linkchorst converted to send the score to 34 - 7. Fourth Quarter The H u skies' final tally came early in this sta nza as "Bo" Rainey passed to Bob Thurston in the end zone , to raise the score to 40 - 7. Locker ffif-LiNQo by Harry Brooks The pride of the State Teachers College conference, our B.S.T.C. Huskies will travel to Kutztown tomorrow afternoon to meet their fifth opponent , in a game which may well tell the story of the winner of the new crown. Kutztown has a good club. The only common foe of both Bloom and Kutztown was Shippensburg; the Golden Avalanche beat the Red Raiders, 20-7, while the Huskies soundly tamped the Shippers, 40-14. The Redmen . will be favored , but Kutztown has a heavy and quickscoring eleven. Should B.S.T.C. win, they will pick up valuable points toward winning the title. Should Kutztown cop the victory, they will gain new life for the title chase. In their opener, Kutztown bowed to a good Indiana team , 14-0. It should be an interesting game, with Bloom coming out on top. In the history of predicting football scores, there has never been a worse season for the guessers. Even the experts are moaning the blues because of the frequent upsets which knock valuable percentage points off the season's totals. Our percentage looks something like a YankeeRedsox baseball score, 24 right and 20 wrong, or a percentage of 54.5%. Once again we will try to better the mavk.
