A growing need for the addition
of a program of graduate studies
to the curricular offerings of the
Bloomsburg State Teachers College is indicated by the results of
a study which is now being made
of the 1845 graduates of the college from 1941 to 1953. Only 18
percent of the more than 1250
alumni who answered the questionnaire mailed to them have
completed the requirements for
the master's degree, leaving more
than a thousand graduates of the
college who would likely be interested in course work at the grad(Continuedon i page 2)

A total of 229 Bloomsburg
alumni reported that they have
been awarded graduate degrees
since their graduation. Of that
number, 186 are men and 43 are
women. Those who have earned
advanced degrees represent roughly one-half those who said they
began graduate work.
The Class of 1947 holds the distinction of having the largest percentage of its members in the
master's degree class—43 percent,
but all six male graduates of the
Class of 1944, who returned their
questionnaires, hold graduate degrees—a record of 100 percent.

Mary Grace : "I would like to hear

tiny pearls and rhinestones around

An attractive contrast of color
on Judy Meyers and Carol Ely
gave these two freshmen girls a
special look. Judy wore a very
pretty pink jersey and full blue
shirt , while Carol looked equally
as attractive in a rust color j ersey
and full green skirt. White blazers
are another popular addition to
the wardrobe. Marion Duriko and

Another example of two-fold

music which kept feet tapping and
hands clapping to the beat of the

Max Kaminsky had a wonderful
combination of all-stars who
brought out the j azziest music

or another of the songs to play a
solo. The All-Stars consisted of a

A total of 229 Bloomsburg
alumni reported that they have
been awarded graduate degrees
since their graduation. Of that
number, 186 are men and 43 are
women. Those who have earned
advanced degrees represen t roughly one-half those who said they
began graduate work.
The Class of 1947 holds the distinction of having the largest percentage of its members in the
master's degree class—43 percen t,
but all six male graduates of the
Class of 1944, who returned their
questionnaires, hold graduate degrees—a record of 100 percent.

Profil e of the
Week
Since the arrival of one of
BSTC' s most personable young
student teachers, rumor has it
that the females at Berwick High
School are really "up in the air."
Hailing from St. Clair , this versatile and unassuming member of
t he Senior Class is Pr esid en t of
the Men 's Dormitory Association
and has marked his career here at
Bloom with honor upon honor.
Needless to say, we're speaking of
Joseph E , Kinder, or j ust "Joe "
as he is known to his host of
frie n ds .
Joe's success dates way back to
his high school days when he was
winning laurels for St. Clair High.
Being captain of his football team
and an outstanding player on the
baseb all squa d, Joe was presented
with the Babe Ruth Award for
good sportsmanship. In his Sophomore year, he displayed his leadership by being a class officer.
In September, 1951. Joe enrolled
in the Business Curriculum at
Bloomsburg and soon became engrossed in sports; namely, football
and baseball. His second year on
campus found him Vice-President
of his Class and an active member
of the Sophomore Dance and Business Contest Committees. In his
Junior Year , Joe was entrusted
with the important positions of
treasurer of the Men 's Dormitory
Association and Co-chairman of
the Junior Prom . Because of his
friendly manner, he was placed on
the Hospitality Committee that
same year. This year, his responsibilities continue to mount. Joe is
President of the Men's Dormitory
Association , Co-chairman of the
Obiter Advertising Committee,
and he will serve as Chairman of
the Senior Ball in May.
Joe 's scholarship exemplifies the
tact tnat he is a weii-rounaed individual. He is an active member
of Phi Sigma Pi, the Varsity Club,
and he serves his fellow-students
well on College Council .
As for his future plans, along
with his dreams of marriage and
a home, Joe would like to continue
his studies so that some day he
may be the proud possessor of a
M aster's Degree. The students of
BSTC wish the best of everything
to Joe Kinder, a friendly ambitious, graduate-to-be, who certainly deserves much success and happiness.

or recreation would you like to
have at B.S.T.C?

Dick Connolley : "I think that the

This would provide all-around
entertainment for everyone, "
Bob Asby : "Upon talking with

/ BY TUCKY-

With all the cold-cold weather
we've been having recently you
can see all our B.S.T.C.'ers donning their heaviest of coats and
sweaters.
Speaking of coats, Rita Gydosh
looks very attractive in her very
different one with a black velvet
top and grey wool skirt, giving the
appearance of a dress.
Joan Rieder certainly wears her
royal blue fitted coat with a fullfull skirt very well. An exceptionally unusual sailor type collar
which comes up high in back and
folds neatly down on Joanie is
really attractive.
Wool j ersey tops are very popular these days. Emy Park looks
adoroble in the palest of pink with
tiny pearls and rhinestones around
the scoop neck .
An attr active con t rast of color
on Judy Meyers and Carol Ely
gave these two freshmen girls a
special look. Judy wore a very
pretty pink jersey and full blue
shirt, while Carol looked equally
as attractive in a rust color j ersey
and full green skirt. White blazers
are another popular addition to
the wardrobe. Marion Duriko and
Muri el Neilson looked very neat
in theirs with a red and grey design on the pocket.
Jeanne Crocker looks very petite
in her charcoal grey suit with it's
y ards and yards of skirt, fitted
j acket and three-quarter-length
sleeves. Jeanne tops her outfi t
with a pink satin ascot at the
throat .
Getting dressed up for church
on Sunday is usually an ordeal,
but not for Sandy McBride and
Marianne Angradi. Sandy contrasted her blonde hair and a very
sweet black taffeta dress with a
full skirt and square cut neckline.
She added to it's attractiveness
with a white bolero j acket; a very
nice combination .
Marianne looked very pretty in
her slate blue silk acetate dress
with a full skirt and sleeveless top
with a square cut neckline. Her
dress also has a matching fitted
j acket with six covered buttons
down the front , a peter pan collar
and three quarter-length sleeves.
On her collar, and cuffs tiny pearls
and rhinestones add to an already
attractive dress.
A welcome to the new freh men
and may I add, keep on sporting
your warm winter clothes which
add so many bright colors in contrast to our snowy campus.

Honor Roll of Hits

Spik e Jones, aware that one
must always keep changing one's
repertoire, has added a "flea circus" to his troupe . A large screen
will be used to magnify the antics
of the fleas for the audience . Dogs
will not be allowed in the audience. No salary fee was mentioned.
Not too original ! !
Trumpeter , Shorty Rogers, on
tour with Stan Kentons Festival
of Modern Jazz, is getting ready
for the year's baseball season.
When he comes off the road he
intends to wax an album entitled
"World Series. " The sides will carry such titles as "Safe At Home,"
"Hot Runs and Errors," Homer
Was Never Like This," "You 're
Out," "I Got To First Base," "Left
On Second Blues" and "Kill the
Umpire."
Chalk up another success for
Jackie Gleason. One of his latest,
"Tawny " is on the bestseller charts
and "Music For Lovers Only " is
still there after two years .
It is seldom that two songs of
extensive popularity are found on
the same recording. An exception
to this rule, however, is the very
popular "Earth Angel" by the
Pelicans. The flip-side offers a
very spicy tune entitled "HEY,
SENORITA" .
Another example of two-fold
enj oyment on a single disc is
"SINCERELY" and "NO MORE"
as recorded by the very lovely
and talented McGuire Sisters. ~

Kaminsky, as he said, "the warmest welcome anywhere." Everyone

music which kept feet tapping and
hands clapping to the beat of the
fast rhythm .
Max Kaminsky had a wonderful
combination of all-stars who
brought out the jazziest music
from their instruments. Every instrumentalist came in during one
or another of the songs to play a
solo. The All-Stars consisted of a

We young people who are fortunate enough to be in college are
subj ect to at least one distinct
disadvantage: we cannot travel
physically to various parts of the

broadening experience, this physical curtailment may become a
serious handicap. However, it need
not be so because just a few

wealth of authoritatively interesting books which permit us to
tr avel, and to savor th e senses of
people all over the globe. This is

be more profitable than the actual

Huskies Suffer
Upset at Hands
Of Bald Eagles

Huskies Stampe de
Cheyney Quinte t
In Centennial Gym

In a complete reversal of form,
the Bald Eagles of Lock Haven
turned the tide on the high riding
Bloomsburg Huskies by defeating
the Shellymen by a 72-65 upset.
The Huskies previously waffled
the Center County tutors by an
overwhelming score of 84-59.
in tne earner meeting me two
teacher rivals, Coach Shelly was
faced with the problem of holding
the score down on the charges of
Coach Darrell Black. But this
meeting was a completely different story. The Locals had trouble
in finding the range throughout
the entire game, which was played at Lock Haven, in the firs t
appearance of the Huskies in the
second semester.
Lock Haven employed the services of only one new player, Kenny Albright, who along with Denny Ditiman hit the cords for 23
points each . Albright wasn't on
the Lock Haven playing roster
during the first meeting of these
two teams , but provided the difference with his one hand push

Bobby Evans, who racked up nine
goals from the field and one free
throw for 19 points. The Coal
Township pivot ace also led the
all-important defensive rebound
column , by snatching six of the
twelve that the Huskies were able
to garner from the Bald Eagle
offensive boards. This was the
fewest number of rebounds retreived by the Huskies in the past
three years.
Just behind Evans in the scoring department was steady Freddy Betz . Husky field captain . The
senior guard hit six field goals and

This was the first game that
the Lads from the Hill were
forced to play without the services
of Larry Bush and Sam Belle, two
of Coach Shelly 's strongest bench
reserves. Bush and Belle withdrew from college because of academic difficulties . With the absence of these two outstanding
reserves who won their monogram
in their first two years at Bloom
it forced Coach Shelly to call on
frosh reserves, who need only to
be tested under varsity fire . This
was the second loss of the current
campaign against six wins.

M

During -the Renaissance the teachers spurred their pupils on hfl
¦
emphasizing the fact that learning is a pleasure.
If you have ever had a class with Dr. Cecil Seronsy, you undoubted!
ly know that this is one of his main obj ectives—to make learning A
pleasure. Perh aps, it is the pleasure the student derives from listening
to Dr. Seronsy 's interpretations of the great works of literature. Dfl
Seronsy, professor of English at B.S.T.C., and our Bloomsburg WriteB
of the week, possesses many more qualities, which are exemplified bfl
¦
his contributions in the writing field.
A native of Youngstown, Ohio, Dr . Seronsy received his early educafl
tion there. He received his B.A. from the University of Virginia, anflj
then for a short time attended Ohio State University. During this timfl
in Ohio, Dr. Seronsy taught in high school for eight years. He thorn
attended the University of Chicago and obtained his Master 's DegreH
¦
and Ph.D. at Harvard University.
Durin g this period, Dr. Seronsy taught for several years at Purdufl
University, Northeastern University at Boston, and for a while was fl
Teaching Fellow in general education at Harvard University. He camfl
¦
to B.S.T.C. in January. 1953.
Dr . Seronsy revealed that he is especially interested in the poetr«
and prose of the Renaissance. His Doctoral Thesis consisted of a serieM
of studies in an Elizabethian poet—Samuel Daniel. Dr. Seronsy has nfl
special preferences in reading; he likes a variety of types along witlM
B
literary criticism and poetry .
When asked his favorite author, Dr. Seronsy meditated awhile aj ifl
revealed, "I find it impossible to single out any one author or work as am
"favorite" because so very much of the literature of the world is rich.B
Dr. Seronsy holds memberships in the Modern Language AssociatiojB
of America, The American Association of University Professors, anflfl
¦
The National Education Association.
Classified under hobbies, Dr. Seronsy admitted a liking for gooS
¦
conversation , picnicing and gardening—but not flower gardening.
This brilliant man, whom B.S.T.C. is proud to claim as a facul tfi
m ember, has had numerous articles and notes published principally irfl
the learned j ournals. Dr. Seronsy has several other articles that arfl
soon to be published and he is also planning the publication of a book 01
Elizabethian Narrative Poetv.
Professor Seronsy's numerous works include, "Daniel and Milton'
published in Notes and Queries in 1952. Also published in Notes aii<
Queries in 1953 were, "A Skeltonic Passage in Ben Jonson " and "Dry
den and Belinda's Loilet."
In the 1953 edition of The Harvard Library Bulletin Dr. Seronsj'i
"Coleridge Marginalia in Lamb's Copy of Daniel' s Poeti cal Works'
appeared . Also, in 1953 Dr. Seronsy 's interpretations included: "Daniel'
Panegyrike and the Earl of Hertford" in the Philological Quarterly
"Daniel's Manuscript 'Civil Wars' " in the Journal of English and Ger
manic Philology, and "Wordsworth's Annotations in Daniel's Poetica
Works" in Modern Language Notes in which Dr. Seronsy tells the pubii
of Wordsworth's attraction to the poetry of Daniel.

Htisky Grapplers
Bow to Strength
Of Golden Rams

West Chester's Golden Rams
continue their athletic supremency
over the Bloomsburg Husky by
shutting out the newly organized
wrestling team by twenty-six to
nothing score at the Chester
County college. The charges of
Coach Jack Yohe made a better
showing than the score indicates
and in losing to the phys-ed maj ors
made a very good' accounting of
th emselves. Bloomsburg will meet
West Chester in another mat encounter that is scheduled for the
X I HI

«-"•

i cui uaij.

Ch u ck Ku ntz , Yohe's 123 po u nd

entry dropped a 4-2 decision to
Ed Forseythe in the opening match
of the evening.
Jimmy Bohner the Rams fast
moving 130 pounder took Kenny
Lynn over with a take-down that
was good for two, a perdiciment
for another point and a reverseal
that added still another two points.
Time was also credited to Bohner
and West Chester now led in the
meet by a 6-0 score.
In tne 1S< pound division rsni

Troiani managed four escapes but
Mike Miconi put together 14 points
for his own cause to take the 137
pound match.
Bloomsburg's one big hope of
the evening was their captain, Red
Welliver who gave a good account
of himself for the first two periods,
and held a commanding 2-1 lead
with less than one minute in the
match . At this point his worthy
opponent John Pescatello made a
perdiciment and a three point
near-fall to take the 147 pound
decision.
Bill Corcoran dropped the 157
pound honors to Bob Hoffman by
a 4-2 score . Hoffman scored on an
escape, a two point reversal and
a final point for a time advantage.
Chuck Reyner took Bob Asby
over 8-3 in the 167 pound tilt.
Reyner was one of the best wrestlers that has come up against a
Bloom matman thus far.
The 177 pound raucous went to
West Chester's Ken McLane in a
shut out fashion 4-0. McLane got
an escape, a two point take-down
and a point for time advantage .
Big Harry Hughes ran into
trouble after he jumped out in
front of Kenny Ober 2-1 in the
opening stanza, the lead was short
lived however, because Ober , a
great football guard for the Rams
fought back and managed to pin
Harry with only six seconds remaining in the opening period.

East Stroudsburg
Indians Suppress
Husky Mat Squad

One of the best showings to date
made by the newly instituted
wrestling teams was made on
January 26, when the Yoheman
traveled to East Stroudsburg and
fell short in a 16-11 effort .
The loss was the third of the
season for the Huskies, and again
they were victims of a time-tested
mat crew , seasoned with experience. Coach Yohe in an effort to
build a strong team for the future
has been wrestling five freshman
in the first eight, which should
prove to be a strong nucleus after
meet experience takes its tolls.
In the opening bout of the afternoon meet , Allen Nuss wrestled
in the 123-pound decision and met
with a strong Stroud opponent ,
Vic Petrino . Petrino took Nuss in
one minute and forty seconds for
the first five points.
The 130 pound class pitted Sal
Evarts for Stroudsburg and Kenny Lynn for Bloom. This match
was a see-saw affair that saw
Lynn leading through the first
two periods. Evarts , in the third
period, caught up to end the
match in a five-five tie. Score was
Stro u d 7, Bloom 2.
Bill Troiani, another Bloom
frosh, suffered a close decision
when he lost two to nothing to
Marsh Bogar in the 137 pound
tussle .
Husky captain, Tom "Red"
Welli ver , had an easy time in
taking his 147 pound Stroudsburg
counterpart , Harry Nuskin, by a
7-2 tabulation. Nuskin was held
scoreless to the third period when
he managed two escapes from the
clever Welliver ,
In the 157 pound battle Bill
Dentith was complete master of
the situation as he took Bloomsburg 's Bill Corcoran to task by a
six to nothing final reading.
Freshma n Bob Asby sh owed h e
has learned his lesson well in his
first-year of wrestling as he led
Hank Hayes all the way in a close
167 pound decision that went to
Bloomsburg. At this point Bloom
trailed 13-8 and still had a slim
chance to take the whole show.

Shaw took Don Wise in a 9-5 interesting 177 pound duel. The
match was decided when Shaw
got take downs in the first and
second periods. Wise fought back
with two reversals in the final
period but it was too late .
In the heavy weight classic the
Huskies' Harry Hughes proved to
be too much for Strouds ' giant
Wally Cox. Hughes scored an
easy shut-out decision. Final score
was Stroudsburg 16, Bloom 11.
Potatoes , Greyhounds, Shakey
Club , Phantoms, Fordhams, and
Arabs.
The League's leading scorers,
excluding the Monday night contests, are as follows: Gergen 34,
Garinger 28, Abazinskas 27, Zachowski 22, Trivelpiece 20, Young
19. Rykniecz, Shustak, Mielke,
and Brassington each have 18
points, Monday night's games saw
the Coal Crackers defeat the Unknowns by a score of 48-28. The
Vets won by forefeit from the
Shakey Club when the players of
the latter team failed to show.
The game of the evening saw the
Whiz Kids falter in an overtime
period of 3 minutes to last season's league winners , The Saints,
with a final score of 32 to 30. Another deciding game, the one between the Greeks and the Weavers was not over In time for thU
release.
For good basketball , and lots of
fun and excitement , why not go
to Centennial on Monday nights?

An enthused crowd was on
hand to greet the Huskie grapplers in their return to Centennial
Gym . It was the fourth start for
the winless locals who have been
unable, as yet, to produce a winning combination. Coach Yohe had
hopes of turning the tide against
the visiting Wilkes College matmen but again the falls were
against him and the Huskies as
the final score read 19-13 in favor
of the Valley lads.
Bloomsburg's Harry Kuntz was
again unable to make the weight
at 123 pounds and forfeited his
match to. Samuel Sugar of Plymouth. They wrestled an exhibition
match in which Chuck looked the
stronger man, but the visitor
proved to be the quicker and
pinned Kuntz in the second period.
The second match, between
Kenny Lynn and Bob Morgan,
saw another pin with the up river
Colonel on top. This victory gave
Wilkes a 10-0 lead which proved
too much for the Huskies to overtake.
Bill Troiani gave a good account
of himself in the 137 pound class
but it was not enough to overpower the smooth visitor who
gained the decision and a 13-0 advantage for his team .
Bloomsburg first points were
registered by Captain Red Welliyer who outclassed Ahmed Kazimi, a student from the TransJord on . It was Red's speed and
skill that enabled him to pin his
opponent in 1 minute and 40 seconds. Welliver used a half-nelson
and crotch hold to do the trick.
One the most thrilling matches
of the evening was witnessed in
157 pound tussel between Charles
Abenmoha of Bloom and Don Mcfadden. Abe gained the lead but
Mefadden soon tied the score on a
reversal. Abe, who has improved
since the beginning of the season,
wrestled hard and was able t o
make a quick reversal as the buzzer sounded ending the second
period . The match ended the score
tied at seven each but the referee
awarded the decision to Mefadden
on time advantage. This victory
boosted the Colonel lead to 16-5.
Bloomsburg could still win the
meet by gaining two falls and a
de cision or tie two with deci sion s
and a fall.
Bob Asby did his best for the
Huskie cause in a see-saw contest
but the visiting grappler eked
out a close 8-6 win . Bob was injured in the final period which
hampered him the closing minutes.
Porky Wise, another improved
Yohemen , went to work immediately in gaining a decisive 4-0
victory in the semi-windup. The
win boosted the Huskie point total
and made the score read 19-8
Wilkes.
The heavyweight finale brought
the crowd to its feet as Bloomsburg's most consistent winner,
Harry Hughes, turned in the fastest pin of the evening. He did it
with a neat crotch-half-nelson
hold in one minute flat. The five
points were not enough to overcome the Colonels, who posted a
19-13 victory.
It was obvious that the boys
have worked hard and it is impossible for victory to evade the
Yohemen much longer, if they
continue to improve .

FINAL. FOOTBALL TRIBUTE TO BE PAID TO SIX GRID SENIORS *
. . . On the 22 of February, Jack Yohe will award the six graduating
seniors the schools last reward for four years of athletic service to
Bloomsburg teams. So as the last applause dies out and awards are in
the hands of their worthy recipients, four seniors will have the highest
tribute the college pays to the men who served them well on the gridiron. The cheers and applause are short lived, but the compensation must
surely lie in the fond memories. Of the six graduating seniors four will
receive the Gold Key which is symbolic of four years of varsity service.
Those to receive this award are Eddie Connolley, John Panichello, Don
Thomas, and Charlie Pope. For three years of varsity competition the
school awards a Gold Football. The two senior co-captains, Bob Cumens
and Tom Persing will both receive this tribute. Other s slat ed to receive
the three year old charm will be juniors Bobby Groover, Jim Browning,
Chuck Skiptunas, Mike Lashendock, Alex Boychuck, and managers
Arnie Garinger and Tom Higgins.
After two years of varsity play, whieh includes a minimum of 17
quarters during each football season, the familiar maroon sweater with
the two gold stripes becomes the usable trophy. Those to receive this
award are Bobby Dipipi, Harry Hughes, Fr ank K aminski , Joe Kwak,
Chuck Casper, Harv Bougher, Bob Stroup, and Dick Stri n e.
The varsity "B" the initial monogram of course is the one year
award for the 17 quarters. Chick DeFebo, George Chaump, Dave Johns,
Bob Asby, Ed Watts , Irv Alexander, Don Bohensky, Joe Wascavage, Mo
Morson , and Joe Malczyk will garner this first year award.
Coach Yohe has also made it known that the football team will be
treated on the 24th of February to the annual football banquet, which
will be held at Buck Horn. The order of the evening will be no speeches,
just plenty of turkey.

Well, kiddi es, by this time we're all settled down to a long semester. Once again we're all suffering from lack of sleep, and lack of mercy
on the part of our—and we say the word with reverence—teachers.
By this time the upperclassmen have started to get over the stiff
necks they acquired from stretching to see the new occupants of the
once empty balcony seats.
§* The student teachers are in the swing of things and have become
&ie center of attraction for all the little brownies. It's rumored that
Ruthie Gillman has already been given a small token of affection from
one of her kiddies—a cement block!
If you see any B.S.T.C. students studying dictionaries, don 't be
alarmed. They 're not trying to break any curves; they 're just trying to
beat the all time high in Scrabble. Who know s, we may even increase
our wee vocabs. This is also a good remedy for loneliness. W e hear that
Dotty Barnes is thinking of buying Harvey Bougher a set for Valentine's Day.
Speaking of loneliness, Shirl Seller and Dick Hurtt have so much
to talk about that they overwork the Williamsport and Bloomsburg
mailmen between weekends. Is this one of the reasons for post office
congestion ?
No Graeber! Don't hit us! We'll mention your name
Joanne Graeber. ( Hope we spelled it right or she'll never forgive us.)
Chic DeFebo seems to have charmed the little blonde waitress at the
Grille . At any rate, she only charged him a quarter for a bacon, lett uc e,
and tomato sandwich. Chic, what those calories are doing to your
figure! How about letting Jim Nicholas in on your secret . He could use
it from his nose to his toes. Maybe if the Grille had waiters instead of
waitr esses , Corinne wouldn't have malnutrition, and we wouldn 't be
writing this column.
