Committees for I Jr* Prom Have Been Appointed Richard Hurtt Edmund Longo Thomas IHg-glns Harrison Morion Committee appointments for the Junior Prom were announced by the class president, David Superdock, at a meeting held in Carver Hall Auditorium .

Suggestions were made by individuals that the class hire Lee Vincent , Scotty Parsons, Gabe Garland , or Al Anderson , but it was finally decided that the committee contact the orchestras, then submit names and dates which will be available for the dance. After making contact with the orchestras, and finding none available, it was decided to have Mai Arter. The Theme and Decoration committee members are listed , but anyone desiring to become a part of this committee may do so by reporting to the gym , the day of the dance. The theme chosen by the committee was "April In Paris " . C.GA. Elections Close with. Great Show of Enthusiasm The fin al seven day round in the race for the presidency of C.G.A. saw David Skammer eliminated in a primary election held after campaign speeches were given in Carver Auditorium. The presidency being the only office at stake in the primary, it was not until the final week before the election that campaigning started on a full-time scale. Being mainly restricted to the old gym, every available space was used to advantage to display the talents of some particular candidate.

G. A. and needed the vote of the students. "I am here for one reason only, for y our vote," stated Albert McManus, the first to deliver his speech , "I want your vote, I need it, and I sincerely ask for it." Mr. McManus believed a candidate for president must have a high average, be interested m everything going around the campus, and haye experience in as many activities as possible. He believed the power of the president is limited to a leader with ideas, not that of a commander or dict ator .

Mail Harry Brooks Gene Morrison Stanley Aagaard Mary Kallenbach Toni Czerwinski Thomas Johnson Your CG-A Off icers No organization , no matter how well-planned and organized , can function properly or accomplish what it does without proper leadership and guidance. Student leadership in C.G.A. is entrusted to five people, ranging from a president to an assistant treasurer. President Edwin Cunfer Mr. Cunfer, as executive head of an all-college organization , has definite and precise duties to perform. He has to call and preside over all C.G.A. and College Council meetings. He is the most im- It 's All Yours . . . Again . . . C.G.A. elections are over. The crepe paper , si g ns , matc h es, chewing gum , posters, rumors , an d button-holing tactics will soon be carefully packed away for another year. It probably h as not been the most exciting election the campus has seen , but it beyond doubt was not in the least dull. Whether you campaigned for a certain can didate , or just sat back and smiled at it all , it was fun ; something you could count on to break the occasional monotony. This year the Maroon and Gold has again attempted to bring t he el ection resu l ts to you , the student body, at the quickest possible moment following the election . This was done with the idea that one of the ultimate purposes of a college newspaper is to carry official announcements and records of important college functions and events. It was assumed that the college community is interested in knowing the results of its elections as soon as possible. Now that everyone knows who will reign as heads of your C.G.A. next year, if history can be said to repeat itself , B.S.T.C. will settle down once more and plod along as usual. The annual revival of interest in the political affairs of the college will subside an d ennui will prevail where enthusiasm so lately sparkled. I f that is the case, then it will be your own personal fault , an d no one el se 's. You have just finished voting for five people who have told you or let it be known to you at one time or another during their campaign that they would serve you. If the candidate for whom you voted did not win, the person who did is still in office to serve you. He can do a good job; his capability is b eyon d qu estion. But he cannot succeed without your support. C.G.A. officers and representatives are delegates whom you have sent to look after your affairs. If you want a council to serve you , you must give it your full cooperation and support; you must express your faith and confidence in it. It is the best council you wili find in any State Teachers College in Pennsylvania . Were the candidates for whom you voted elected? Good; since you helped put them where they are, you are as much responsible as they for their future success. Were your candidates defeated ? Then all the more reason why you should work to support the organization . If you feel that the officers are unwise choices, the responsibility rests more directl y on the individuals in the group. There are those who habituall y criticize the C. G. A. and college council. Upon closer examination , it will be found that while many of these criticisms are in part justified , otlhers are made by self-appointed critics. They do not know or realize any difference between C.G.A. and college council , when it meets and what it does, This issue of the Maroon and Gold should make at least a few of these points clear. This editor at least hopes so. Edwin Cunfer portant "go-between " among „the faculty, students, and administration. He has the unenviable task of trying to please everyone at the same time. He appoints all special committees , exemplified this year by the television , lounge , and evaluation committees. He must and does take suggestions offered him before Council and presides over discussions on those suggestions with no show of favoritism. He represents the student body on public occasions. This year , among other things, he was the delegate to the Pennsylvania State Educational Conference at Harrisburg, and testified at a court hearing in Scranton in favor of the Greyhound Bus Lines, who wished to obtain a franchise from any two points within Pennsylvania outside the fifty mile radius limit. Then there are the special things, the extra bits of work that constantly go on with few hearing of them. That is the life of the President. Vice-President Michael Crisci Like elections rotating around a guiding nucleus, the n u m e r o u s functioning standing committees on campus must be guided also by a central force. It is the duty of Mr. Crisci to apooint the chairmen of all standing committees , and to supervise their work and progress. He must represent these committees in council , and serve on committees which affect their action. As vice-president , he must be prepared to serve as presiding officer of C.G.A. in the absence of the president. As a regular Council member, he too represents the interests of the student body and works on student committees to which he is assigned. He too may be requested to represent the C.G.A at conventions, such as the recent state conference at Slippery Rock.

His Life and Times Four months after the State Council of Education changed the name of the Normal School to Bloomsburg State Teachers College, a committee of men and women students together with several faculty members, were called upon to start on the first draft of the Constitution of the Community Government Association. By February 22, 1928, nine months after B.S.JST.S. became B.S.T.C, the constitution had the blessing of students and faculty, and a Student Council was in operation, but in need of a president. Since the constitution at that time provided that Council was to nominate three candidates for each office, two boys and a girl were appointed to run for the office of president. Thomas Welsko, senior representative to Council, became the first President of C. G. A., today's winner becoming the twenty-seventh person to succeed him. > The first Council was mainly concerned with organization, establishing Social, Fire, Lobby, Hospitality, Dining Room, and Grievance committees. The North and Waller Hall Associations were made to run smoothly, and the local chapter of Alpha Psi Omega was established on campus. Through Council action, gravel was spread on our campus paths and planned welcomes for visiting athletic teams were started. Plans f or the first college handbook were made. Succeeding Welsko as president was George A. Mathews, who with Council strived to better and strengthen the workability of C. G. A. Under leadership of Edgar F. Richard, the 1929-30 C.G. A. saw professional fraternities firmly planted on campus to replace the discordant social clubs which were not helping to build student moral or professional attitude. Work was done on improving the relation between the T|e. day and dormitory students.

It was up to this committee to get the freshmen acquainted with upperclassmen and to teach them ihe ways of college life. The frosh were also shown the friendly atmosphere that prevails here. Through the efforts of the committee, the freshmen learned that rules must be obeyed. In the process, however, they made many friends.

The war interrupted the reign of Boyd Buckingham in 1943 and, upon leaving college, he was replaced by the first woman president of C. G. A., Jeanne Fice. It was not the last of Boyd Buckingham , however, for Miss Fice soon became his wife. It was in that year that the Navy V-5 program began, football was discontinued , and a College Council of Defense was formed; Edward Manley was president for the first semester of the 194344 school year, during the height of the wartime training programs. The Navy V-12 was represented in council. Manley taught for a time at Wilkes College and is now a Student at Georgetown University Law School in Washington , where he is studying law. He is also self-employed as a Certified Public Accountant. The second , semester in 1944 saw Julian Zinzarella as head of C. G. A.

Main St., Bloomsburg, Pa. The 1953 High School Invitational Basketball Tournament is history now, but it will be a long time before most of the spectators will have the privilege of witnessing as many exciting contests as there were to be found in this year's classic. The tourney was one that was featured time and again with upsets galore. One night a team would look like a world-beater, and the next time they would be j ust another ball club. The sportsmanship displayed this year, whether a team was winning or losing, was the best in the long history of the games. In the Class C finals this year, a strong Rock Glen team that featured speed and a fighting spirit appeared to have a decided advantage over a determined but not too potent Scott Twp. five . But Scott's quintet played their hearts out, and to the delight of the crowd led all of the way in downing the favored Rockets. The finals in Class B also saw the underdog coming through with the chips down to cop the crown. This time it was a sharp shooting Minersville team that started fast and hung on to send the Preppers from Freeland M.M.I. down to defeat, 63-61. It was a heart-breaking defeat for the crowd-pleasing Preppers, who also dropped a one point decision in last year 's Class B finals. At one point early in the game the Miners held an 18-8 lead, which proved to be a maj or factor in their win, as the losers came back strongly, only to have time run out at the height of their drive. The biggest and best treat of the entire tournament, came in the finals of the Class A eliminations which pitted a fast , aggressive St. Claire quintet, the f avorit e, against a tall, sharp-passing Weatherly five. It was, in fact, a scoring duel between St. Clair's scoring ace, Joe Sninsky who tallied 36 points in his last outing and Weatherly's highly touted Frank Romano, who had accumulated an astounding 900 odd points this season. Powered by the uncanny shooting ability of Romano, the Weatherly boys came out on top. The fans were left agog time and again, as the slender Weatherly ace dropped hook shot after hook shot "from every angle imaginable in as brilliant a shooting exhibition as has ever been seen on the Centennial boards. Anybody can shoot a hook, but to hit on three out of four is a trick that is to be applauded, and applauded he was indeed. Romano finished the contest with 37 markers, Sninsky totalling 22. All-Tournament Team At the completion of the evening 's contests the annual All-Tournament team was chosen, and the deserving All-Stars were given a big hand by the approving crowd. The climax of the games was the awarding of the handsome Outstanding Player Trophy. There was no trouble in deciding who deserved this honor.1 As Weatherly 's Frank Romano was called forward the fans gave him the roaring ovation that he surely deserved. Other members of the All Tournament team were: Sninsky, St. Clair; Citro, Freeland M.M.I.; Quinn, Minersville; Kandra, Shamokin ; Kocick, Dallas Twp.; Bankek, Butler Twp.; Wanich, Scott Twp.; McGlyn , Rock Glen , and Bach, Shickshinny.

Baseball Practice Begins With Spring in the air it's time to take me out to the ball game, and the 1953 edition of the baseball Huskies are the boys to watch. Coach Jack Yohe in his first season as baseball mentor has had his hopefuls working hard for the past few weeks on Mount Olympus to decide which nine men will take the field in the season 's opener against Wilkes College April 11. As Coach Yohe looks over his veteran-packed infield he feels that the hot corner will probably be plugged by the versatile Dave Linkchorst, who hit a smart .374 last season. Dave will be starting his fourth campaign on the hill and will be a definite asset to the team. A good standby for Link may be found in freshman George Parsell, the very capable Orangeville slugger. As we move over to shortstop, we can't help but notice the flashyfielding Kenny Mincemoyer. Mince hit from the lead-off slot last season and did himself credit with a .285 average. The job of playing the keystone sack is a hotly contested one. Johnny Halcovich and Bob Cummins split the job last season, but nothing is definite thus far , as Ron Steinbeck is another man who has ideas on the subj ect. At firs t base the Johnstown Freshman, Bob Stroup, a 200 pound ex-marine, has been showing his ability to hit the long ball and handle his fielding chores with no trouble. This will probably force Coach Yohe to move the popular Bill Bartelson , a senior flrst-sacker , to the outfield. Another outfielder will be Joe Glosek, a good bet to be swinging from the clean-up slot this season on the strength of a .395 batting average last year, and .320 the year before. Ron Girton, former Bloomsburg High School outfielder , and one of their leading hitters iast spring, will be hustling for an outfield berth with other promising flychasers such as Frank Janowicz, Joe Kinder, and Ron Kelchner. Coach Yohe finds himself with a real problem in deciding who will don the mask and chest-protector in the opener. Those vieing for the job of calling the pitches are John Panichello and Bob Aurand, last season's substitute receivers, the hard-playin g Bernie Mont and freshman Joe Keefer. The Huskie mound corps will feature John Angus, a burly righthander, who was ineligible last season because of the transfer rule but should be a real asset this season. Rudy Holtzman, a portsider who was a winning pitcher last year, will be tough to beat. Big Al Belinsky, a converted outfielder , with a lot of side arm tricks should also prove to be a dependable starter. Big things are also expected of Charley Kwlatkoski, the "Plymouth Playboy " who did a lot of pitching in the Navy and will round out the front line pitchers. », . So as the Huskies are preparing to enter the 1953 baseball campaign with a few new faces and some old favorites, here's wishing them luck and the support of the fans, FRIENDLY SERVICE For the Best Sundaes .

The audience shifts positions impatiently as the sponsor says a few thousand words about his product, and three minutes later they sit up alertly as they hear those famous words.
