Life with Dickens, et al.

There are people who think library work is uninteresting. Libraries
consist of a little white-haired old lady sitting behind a desk pointing
toward a sign stating in big bold letters, "Silence," and rows and rows
of dusty books. But I disagree; I work in a library.
A library is an ideal place to get to know people. There is the
person who walks in past the sign stating that the library will be closed
for the evening, asking what time it will open, and the one who rushes
in just as you are ready to lock up for the night to browse through the
stacks. Then there is the lady who does not know the title, author, or
any other pertinent information about the book she wants, but it is
about animals; and the college graduate who has never yet come in
contact with an encyclopedia. Most librarians are understanding souls,
or they are not librarians.
A casual observer may never realize that there is more to a librarian 's day than checking books in and out. There is the constant selecting and ordering of new books. And in order to select them she must
read books, reviews, library publications, and publishing lists. Processing of new books after they arrive comes next—ordering catalogue
cards, accessioning, cataloguing, classifying, stamping, embossing, pasting, filing shelf list cards, and lettering. New books light up a librarian 's
face like a new toy does a child's. They are sometimes fascinating in
just their title or the author 's name. Isn't it logical that Dull & Dull
should write a mathematics text, and that Wing should expound on
wildlife conservation ? Is it always coincidence , or does the author have
a sense of humor ? In working with books, the librarian is sure to find
many a chuckle.
Even the best librarian, and I am far from that category, m akes a
few classic mistakes. For instance the time 1 searched frantically and
finally located four or five books on "Youth in Asia", only to discover
that the girl wanted material on euthanasia, or mercy killing. And the
time I looked in vain for Let's Look At Thesky when the name of the
book was Let's Look at the Sky.
Annual inventory in a library is similar to spring housecleaning.
Books are taken out of hiding, checked with the shelf list, and dusted.
Old ones are discarded, or stored away like worn-out furniture. It is
surprising how many books are in a library which do little but collect
dust, books which were presented in 1898 as a gift by a temperance
society or in 1900 by a local manufacturer.
A librarian 's day is interspersed with innumerable little jobs—reading shelves, slipping and reshelving books, arranging displays, sending
out notices and writing letters, adding to the picture and pamphlet file,
sor ting mail , keeping magazines and newspapers in order, typing book
pockets and cards, mending book s, keeping the room in order, etc A
good librarian must be very careful not to let the little tasks crowd her
real job, that of aiding and encouraging people in the use of the library.
Books are a stronger influence on the lives and aspirations of most
people than we realize — more than the radio, t elevision , or the movies.
Hollywood cannot quite reproduce the heart-moving power of a wellwritten book, because a book can tell so much: and yet leave so much
to the individual's imagination. That is why library work is so important. In choosing the right book for someone, the librarian does a great
service. And if she absorbs j ust a little from the books she works with
she is well paid.

Planning q Successf ul Tourney

by Ann Gengenbach

Back again with more hemlint
news and talk about what our coeds are wearing. New on my lisi
is Jan Johnston; wearing a beautiful , soft lavender j ersey dress tc
dinn er. Blonde Jan really wears
this "f u ssy" shade well. The bodice has a double Peter-Pan collai
and tiny pearl buttons dancing
down to say hello to a matching
belt. Only thing though—the buttons have a twinkling rhinestone
center . The gathered skirt hangs
in soft full folds. Three-quarter
sleeves finish off what I call a new
and different trend—j ersey in pastels.
Another Jan caught my eye,
None other than Jan Bower. Looking neat as a pin in a check suit.
The two-tone brown check looked
like a Shepherd's plaid from afar.
Right Jan??? A white tailoredi
blouse peeked out from the lay-[
flat lapels. Three buttons give the
jacket beautifully tailored lines.
Dark brown shoes made Jan's outfit complete !
Another pastel dress eased into
the dining room. Peggy Haupt
looking wonderful in a dusty blue.
One of the outst anding things
about this dress is its cute boat
neckline. Folding back over the
edge of her neckline was a sweater ribbing of white angora wool.
The unusual three-quarter length
sleeves are gathered over each
elbow to add a little fullness and
prettiness. A narrow belt topped
the gored skirt. Peggy decided in
black shoes and a pearl choker.
Small drop earrings gave Peggy
that finished look. Sophistication
plus ! !
The last one to go on the list is
Lillian Tomasko. Lillian had an
entirely different costume from
any of the above. 'Twas a navyblue coat dress with a full, f u ll
skirt. Six courageous white butto n s, in perfect contrast with the
navy, lined up in two straight
rows on the bodice. Twelve matching buttons, six on each sleeve ,
added more of that NEW look. A
red scarf tucked in at the throat
gave Lillian a rich wear-it-all-thetime outfit.
Till next time then . . . . Bye.

GJ. MAIL

. . . Just a few lines to let you
people know how much I appreciate receiving the school paper.
I've been down Quantico way
since September and constantly
look forward to receiving news
about the old Alma Mater. The
Maroon and Gold certainly does a
thorough j ob. Many thanks.
Bloomsburg was very well represented here at Marine Corps
Schools with Steve Kriss heading
the list as one of its faculty members. Dale Bennet and I have had
the good fortune of being together
since September. John Dietz and
George Blyler both left for their
first duty stations, while Bob
Burns is in the class ahead of me
and will be leaving the latter part
of March.
Many thanks again for being so
considerate -*- sincerest regards to
all my friends at Bloomsburg and
am looking forward to visiting the
campus.

of the most active clubs on campus.
>
They 're like other clubs with a constitution and by-laws, etc. But
they believe in healthy wholesome fun and activity. Regular meeting
are usually supper meetings at Miss MacCammon's home—fried chicken
spaghetti and meat balls, or light refreshments. "Doggie " roasts, ant
6:00 a.m. breakfast cook-outs are all part of the fun.

On Homecoming Day the girls operate the concession stands or
Mount Olympus, and supply giant chrysanthemums. It's a hectic j ob ol
fun. This year "B" Club sponsored a trip to Hershey to see the let
Capades of 1953.
The girls render a great instructional service to all active-minded
girls—beginners and recruits included. They keep their Tuesday nights

play Volley Ball, Basketball, Cage Ball, Swimming, Badminton, anc
Shuffleboard. In the spring Baseball and Bowling leagues are organized

teams to watch are Rock Glen in Class C, and Shamokin in Class A
competition . . . . Crowds at the tournament have been gratifying at
times and everyone who attends these nightly fests can thank Dean
John Hoch, Ed Cunfer, student coordinator , and their host of ablebodied staff members who have presented a fine picture of B.S.T.C. to
the many visitors on this campus . . . . Coach Jack Yohe's baseballers
are preppingfor the coming campaign, not so far off now. For several
weeks, the large turnout of diamond hopefuls have been working off the
winter weight and grinding out the stiffness of their muscles to get into
shape for the mid-April opener . . . . and another sign of the times is
cheerleader Mary Lou Kubik's sojo urn to various fields everyday—five
iron and driver over her shoulder, practicing her strokes for the coming
golf season . . . . And now in a serious vein — I hope the day comes
when a certain newspaper's sports staff wakes up and realizes that
there is a college high on the hill. When church leagues consistently
outrate a top collegiate team such as we had here during the past
season at B.S.T.C, in publicity or in newspaper placement, one begins
to wonder if some people know the real value of j ournalism. If not,
there is a good Journalism course offered here at the "Friendly College."

With the intramural basketball season coming to a close, three
teams are deadlocked for first place with identical four and one records.
The Misogamists, Barts Frat House, and The Flashy Five have survived
the cage wars and will tangle in the play offs for the intramural crown.
Here are the official box scores and standings to date:

Shellymen Edged
By Marauders in
NAIA Playoff Tilt

The local cagers, winners of the
State Teachers College Conference Title, fell victims to the
Millersville Marauders for the second successive time this season
when the downstate aggregation
dumped the Shellymen, 66-61. This
tilt was the NAIA playoff battle.
The Dutchmen's home court was
a decided advantage in the exciting fray — the winner of which
represented Eastern Pennsylvania
in the N A I A eliminations at
Johnstown.
During most of the thrilling
first half , the Millers led the
Huskies, but the Maroon and Gold
trailed close behind in the important battle. Onlv at one brief point
did the Marauders take a decisive
lead—that of seven points late in
the second period. Before the halftime whistle had sounded, shots
by Erickson, Linkchorst, and Williams pushed the locals within
four points of a tie. The intermission tally read Millersville 30,
Bloomsburg 26.
After the third period began,
the tilt tightened up. B. S. T. C.
pulled up to the local cagers midway in the third canto. At one
stage they took a one point lead
only to find the Millers taking
over again on a quick set by
Kline. After this, the home team
was never headed. They steadily
increased their margin to five
points, a lead which they retained
until the end of the contest.
Erickson led the locals with 21
tallies, while Kline of the Millers
dropped in sixteen. By virtue of
ths win, the Marauders earned the
right to meet Geneva — Western
Penna., conqueror of Clarion, last
year's champion. Geneva dumped
Clarion, and later beat Millersville to cop the opportunity to trek
to Kansas City for the NAIA
tourney as the Penna. entry.
Prof— "Young man, are you the
teacher of this class?"
Stude— "No, sir. "
Prof— "Then don 't talk like an
idiot!"

A Final Word . . . .
The last word in basketball for '53 is that the Huskies are Champs,
State Teachers College that is, and for the first time in who knows how
long. We are all mighty proud , and C.C. personally feels that every last
basketballer on the team deserves a hero j acket of some sort. What's
good enough for footballers is good enough for the other kinds of bailers
too. A big C.C. Hardwood Medal goes to the 1953 Shellymen!

Check Your Appendix . . . .
College students have been advised often and oftener to check their
appendix when plodding through a thick tome (book, to us) in the quest
of a terribly important piece of inconsequential information. Now, C.C.
is saying this, check your other appendix too. Did you know that eight
(count 'em) eight people have been out with appendicitis this year
already ? This has really been a year for stitches in time to save nine
(or should we say eight). At least it's what I call earning a vacation.
* * * * *
T. V. Is Here . . . .
O, goody, T. V. is here (and so is Bob Steele) at last. Sometimes
the reception is good, other times I feel sorry for that poor guy sitting
there reading the news in a driving blizzard. The program starts at
6:00 o'clock from the W-BAR-E Ranch with the introduction of cute
little kiddies with cap pistols as long as their arms. The guy doing the
introductions sits on a log and in a kind of stupified monotone gives
you the name, address, and birthday of 37,000 kids in the Wilkes-Barre
area. After this comes the big feature with lots of horses and Bob
Steele, then there is the rancher's daughter and Bob Steele, then there
are more horses and Bob Steele, then there are the outlaws and
. . . . But sometimes it's really good and it does keep the children off
the street.
* * * * *
Why the Shortness . . . .
If anyone wonders why the Currents were so brief this week, it's
because there's so much we all know about without my having to write
about so that my editor could have something to censor about so that
you could have something to not read about aryway ?

of public streams. He stressed the
importance of clean streams for
our many sportsmen, and the same
for the beauty of the water bodies
viewed by many tourists.
A film , "Waters of the Commonwealth" was then pfesented by
Mr. Wood. The movie had been
made in Pennsylvania, and it
showed the ugliness as well as the
beauty of our streams. Today this
film is being viewed in all parts of
New Zealand. Mr. Wood said this
proved that Pennsylvania not only
leads our country, but also the
world in water sanitation.

I guess when I get home, the

around the beginning of next semester.
When I left home for the service, I went to Fort Meade, Maryland, and left there on Saturday
and arrived at Camp Rucker, Alabama, on Sunday afternoon . We
came by troop train . . . it took us
thirty hours. We had breakfast in
Maryland, lunch in Virginia, and
dinner in North Carolina . . . The
next day we had breakfast and

On Student Teaching . . . .
Like I said before this student teaching is one thing that condenses
all three and a half year's of education into a nice, sharp, crystal clear
drop of understanding. Jimmie Johnson, who is in the happy situation
of teaching ninth grade general science, has learned that the three
states of matter are not, as he thought, liquids, solids, and gases; but
Pennsylvania, New York, and Ohio. A student teacher can start by
telling about capillaries and wind up trying to explain why deep wells
require force pumps. Between a yo-yo craze that has recently struck
the school and the normal high school exuberance, anyone who finds
student teaching boring has not caught that love of combat which
makes teachers enj oy their task.
* * * * *
Shades of A. T. & T
Those wires you see strung around the halls are not a branch line
of American Telephone and Telegraph ; they're actually a test layout
for an alarm system. They seem to work pretty well, too, because you
can hear bells ringing almost anytime and place. The wires really don't
constitute a fire hazard either, because they're right out in the open
where you could see the flames if they started to burn. I guess it's j ust
another alarming situation on American College campuses.
