Dr * Andruss Given Service Pla que at Education Meetin g Dr. Harvey A. Andruss, who directed the destiny of the Business Education Department, passed on much of the credit for that department to his co-workers and Dr. Francis B. Haas, as he received a plaque in recognition for outstanding service at the College last Saturday. In accepting the plaque at the noon luncheon that concluded the annual conference of the Eastern Division of the Pennsylvania Business Educators Association, Dr. Andruss remarked, "I am deeply grateful and most appreciative of this award. But I think that in giving this award you are honoring a lot of people. • xou are nononng ur. ±iaas who made the decision and application for a business education department here. I am grateful to him, because he selected me to come here. You are honoring the peoplehe helped me select. Today in honoring Dr. Haas, you are also honoring these faculty members." Touching on problems of the institution, including too many students for next year, and of the business education profession, Dr. Andruss pointed out that school department heads in the state have less time to supervise and improve instruction. j rreseniauon oi me awara was made by Morgan E. Foose, president of the PBEA division. The session opened in the morning with sectional meetings and a general session in Carver Auditorium preceding luncheon. The general ession speaker was Les Giblin , originator of the Les Giblin Sales Clinic, who pointed up the needs of human relations. He advised „, working with people, encouraging " people to talk about themselves, learn to agree with the other fellow, and smiling. Final Results of Class Election Senior Class President.

Mary Jane Treisger ¦Do You Sleep Well at Night? by Ken Weir Once again green ivy is climbing skyward, in its disorganized way, along the brick walls of Waller, Carver, and North Halls. In a few days the dread testing that precedes the close of a semester, will begin. Another class will prepare to leave old Bloomsburg, and with mixed emotions, say goodbye to their college days. George Derk will be giving the traditional Ivy I>ay oration, and the rusty old spade that makes its annual appearance will be turned over to the Class of '56. It seems that the "college set" has always loved the twisting and turning ivy, but as we wander about the campus we see many Ivy Day markers where no ivy grows. At one time a graduating class took much ceremony to plant some there, but we have allowed it t o disappear with th e massing of time. On this Ivy Day it might be well to make sure that we have a few of those shiny leaves growing beneath every bronze marker on campus. Through the combined efforts of the College Council, the Faculty Association, and the Board of Trustees, we have forwarded five hundred dollars to the Bloomsburg Hospital for the refurbishing of Room 322. This room, which the College maintains, will have a fresh coat of paint, new drapes, furniture of the latest design, and a motorized bed. Surely this is a lasting tribute to our ability to share in the completion of a worthy project. Another tribute to the year's activity was the College Council banquet at the Hotel Magee, on Monday evening, April 25. Both Doctor Andruss, and our former Dean, Doctor North, spoke favorably concerning the work of the Council during the past school year. Joining in the fellowship of a delicious dinner seems a most fitting way to close the work of a Council, and to turn the responsibility over to the newly elected offi cers. Dainty silvery waist, shining satin skirt, sparkling shoes with taps describe the costume of a pert little miss on the BSTC campus. Who ?—you ask. Just tune in on any of BSTC's talent shows, and before your eyes, MARY HOFFECKER will dance her way to the stars. Dancing is not the only talent of this energetic young lady. Her high school career proves this as she was active in varsity basketball, the captain of the hockey team and captain of the cheerleaders. Memberships in the Honor Society and Choir were another phase of her high school life. Her "showman" qualities were displayed in the Senior Play and Spring Frolic. BSTC has also become aware of Mary 's varied interests. She has been a cheerleader for three years and captain of the cheerleaders in her sophomore and junior years. Her other activities have included Women 's Chorus, Dramatic Club, Obiter Advertising Staff . Customs Committee, Co-ordinator for Fashion Show, and Governing Board of Waller Hall. Mary has displayed her dancing ability in the Obiter Show, Freshman Talent Show, and All-College Talent Show. Pi Omega Pi Fraternity has been given much of Mary 's time, and in her j unior year she served as president of that organization. College Council has placed much responsibility on her shoulders in naming her Social Recreation Chairman . Even though our "Miss Profile" is racing from meeting to meeting, she still finds time to greet everyone with a sweet smile. uur peppy cneerieaaer neais from Yeadon High School, from which she was graduated in 1952. Mary is a junior at BSTC in the Business curriculum. The fine reputation of BSTC graduates will be upheld by Mary when she enters the teaching profession. She surely will be the "peppiest" teacher in the school system. TOP to TOE BY TUCKY Well, folks, this is it, only three more weeks to go! You can always tell when school is nearing an end. Baseball games start rolling, we all have spring fever, and (of course) our co-eds switch to their bright summer cottons. Gloria Harris looked very sweet in her aqua blouse with a small painted collar and pretty white buttons down the front. Her full dark brown skirt with small aqua leaves scattered through it made her look very petite. A dark background with wide red and yellow vertical stripes made an attractive outfit for Nancy Renn at lunchtime the other day. Rusty Miller 's brown sleeveless dress contrasted with her strawberry blonde hair. Her dark striped bolero j acket added j ust the right touch to her stunning outfit. A deep rose sundress with tiny white flowers supporting a rhinestone center looked sweet on Peggy Lynch. Her white pique bolero j acket with the Peter Pan collar looked just right with her pretty dress. Jo Ann Tressler has a most unusual bright summer skirt. It stands but very full with its yards of chintz. A red . white, and black block design of little keys and flowers makes it one Jo won't have to worry about being copied. Marta Dimon made an attractive appearance the other night at dinner in her new candy-striped blouse. The three-quarter length, puffed sleeves, and high neck looked especially attractive on Marta. Anyone who likes pink will fall in love with Jan Ference's pretty nylon shantung dress. Sleeveless, with a V-neckline, empire waist and full, full skirt—you couldn't help but notice Jan 's lovely outfit. Congratulations to the Juniors' for their fine Grecian dance. Added to the attractive scenery were the many beautiful evening gowns. We hardly ever see shades of rust or brown on the dance floor , but Verna Sweeney looked lovely in her flowing net gown which contrasted so well with her long blond hair. Bert Hendrickson looked as sweet as could be in aqua net. Tiered and covered with white nylon in a tiny flowered design, her gown would take a prize anywhere, especially when she turned around; and you saw the pretty apron effect in the back with a big taffeta bow. Very sweet on Bert's petite figure . For the men of B.S.T.C well, you continue to enjoy yourselves, watching our pretty co-eds . . . and those tangerine shirts! Keep it up, we like it! That's about it for now. One last word to the wise: don 't let it get you down, May 13th will be here before you know it! When an unpleasant situatio n in a college becomes so obvious as to warrant special dormitory meetings, locked doors, and mounting suspicions on all sides, it is time for the college publicatio n, theoreticall y rep resentative of the students , to express its opinion. Such a problem is the p resent one of increasing theft in the dormitories. It may be argued that a pro blem of this type is one of a partisan nature , in that it concerns dormitory students more directly than the rest of the college population. But when the actions of a few reflect upon the char acter and reputation of the entire college community, ' it is no longer a partisan problem , in our opinion. it also might be said that such a delicate and distasteful subject is one not suited for a newspaper editorial. However, we believe that editorials are designed to express student opinion on ALLsubjects . . . not merely to praise , to cajo le, or to eulogize. The situatio n that exists should be eliminated , not avoided . . . those few rotten apples in the barrel should be exposed , not covered up.

At present, Mrs. Smith resides in Benton with her husband and three children . In addition to her duties as housewife and mother, she is editor of "Poetry Corner," in the Morning Press of Bloomsburg.

Her writing has been further inspired by tales of the Bront sisters, and by The Golden Bough, which she considers as "an eternal source." Her interests range from philosophy and ancient religions to astronomy and science. The poetess says that in the beginning she was Interested in writing as a means of expression only. Soon she was very gratified to discover that her poetry had a strong communicative value as well. She began to write with additional purpose at age eleven, although she had her first article published in Etude, the music magazine, at age ten. Mrs. Smith's book, St. Martin's Summer, has drawings by Ruth Hutton Ancker, formerly of Bloomsburg, The volume is divided into several sections, each developing a facet of her personal philosophy. The poems read very well and lend themselves to a rich understanding of man and nature. Her works show many romantic elements, such as the countryside with children and animals of long ago. She captures in her landscape a certain medieval tone; yet, the reader finds himself in harmony with it , Her couplets are particularly fine, and she frequently uses varied rime schemes which are vitally alive in their effectiveness.

'Twas the night before test week And all through the school, Not a student in bed, not even a fool. The books were all jumbled on the desks without care, And piles of papers were strewn everywhere. The students were slouched over their desks, Half-dead in the process of cramming for tests. Their eyes were half-open ; their faces looked weary. Their minds were all whirling; the pages were blurry. 'Twas a day in our test week And all through the school, The atmosphere was eertaJnly drool. You never saw such a mixture of facts As those Bloomsburg students carried under their hats. There were partenogensis, Balzac, and osmosis. There were x's and y 's, Pope, and hypnosis. There were Lincoln. Mendel, Edison, and Grant. You can be sure that this knowledge was terribly scant. 'Twas the day after test week And all through the school, Not a student was laughing, not even a fool. The once-smiling faces looked bitter and grim. And goose pimples stood out all over the skin. Students were walking with heads bent to the ground. They frowned and scowled but never uttered a sound . The air soon was filled with gripes and slams, For. you see, these poor students had flunked their exams. Did you know . . . That a column, "The Students Speak" appeared in the M & G so long ago? —February 14, 1942 "Let' s see—I got "INOOMPLETES " In math 218, WITHDRAWN In English II, CONDITIONAL In social studies, and a "D" In PHYS ED.—Boy t Thank goodnest I didn 't flunk anything this term. " Dr. Hoggard Guest Director at Annu al College Festival The sixth annual Pennsylvania Collegiate Choral Association Festival was held at Slippery Rock State Teachers College on April 23, 24 and 25, with eight students from B.S.T.C. participating. Those students who attended were: Robert Ebner, Sam Hall, and Harold Herritt, Tenors; Dotty Horning and Deanna Morgan, Sopranos ; Bill Phillips, John Sandier, and Don Schlauch , Basses. The chorus presented a fourpart program of varied styles and types of music. Part I consisted of "O Praise the Lord," "Gloria in Excelsis," (three choruses from the Requiem Mass) "Lacrymosa," "Sanctus," and "Hosanna." Included in Part II were "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring," "Te Deum," "Mary, Mary, Where is Your Baby," "Two Kings," and "Great and Glorious." The third section of the program was comprised of "April Is In Her Lovely Face," "The Lark In the Morn," "Shenandoah," "Ode to Starlight ," "Gently Johnny," "No Man. Is An Island," and "Hail Bright Abode." "I Hear America Singing" composed the final section of the program . A very rigorous schedule was set up and followed to the minute. Rehearsals occupied most of the days and the nights until 9:30. Recreation was provided in the spare hours by the Social Recreation Committee with swimming, dancing, and banquest on the agenda. The chorus was worning unaer difficulties throughout the program. The chapel where the concert was to be held was condemned, and the organ could not be moved from it. The rehearsals, therefore, had to be held in the Gymnasium, and a portable organ was used. The orchestration for the brass accompaniment to Wagner's "Hail, Bright Abode" wasn't available, so the professorof music from Indiana S.T.C. pencilled the orchestration at the first rehearsal. These difficulties were overcome by the willingness and cooperation of all people concerned. The chorus was composed of students from Bloomsburg S.T.C, Clarion S.T.C , Drexel Institute of Technology, Edinboro S.T.C . Indiana S.T.C, Franklin and Marshall College, Grove City College, Hershey Junior College, Lebanon Valley College, Lock Haven S.T.C, MillersviUe S.T.C, Mt. Mercy College, Pennsylvania Military College, Pennsylvania State University. Seton Hill College, St. Vincents College, Slippery Rock S.T.C. Susquehanna University, West Chester S.T.C, and Westminster College. The chorus was directed by Dr. Lara Hoggar d who also conducted the first two of Penns ylvania's College Choruses. Dr . Hogard first received nat ional recognition as director of the high school chorus at Durant , Oklahoma , and later at the Universit y of Oklahoma when his men won the special prize for "finest chora l artistr y" at the finals of the Inter-collegiate Glee Club competition at Carnegie Hall. For seven years Dr. Hoggard was choral director of Fred Warin g's Penns ylvania ^ and princi pal instructor at the Warin g Summer Worksho ps. His concert group, "Festival of Song," which toured in 1953, received highest pr aise from critics and audiences in eighty-five cities , In addition to his work with professional groups , Lara Hoggard is nationall y Known as teacher, lecturer , festival conductor , choral arran ger, and editor (Shawnee Press) . He now lives in Hemet , California , where he serves as Minister of Music in the Methodist Church . In addition to the Penns ylvania Collegiate Chor al Association Festival , Dr . Hoggard will conduct more than thirty festivals and workshop s throughout the United State s this year. Dr . Hoggar d said the chor us was undoubtedly the best one he had conducted and expressed his desire to direct it for a. month , take it on tour , and then to Car negie Hall. After the progr am was presented , the audience was reluctant to leave. When the chorus started to sing farewell to Dr. Hoggard , the audienc e filed back into the gymnasium . The 140 voices of P. C. C. A. Festival were of one voice when they sang "Auld Lang Syne" . , , hats off to a really great man and musician. Dr, Lara Hoggar d, "Well, Here I Am!"

H ¦niSPORTS SCUTTLEBUTT EMIEM by BILL B|TNER ifiiHl ^H wrai nnwBa ^—^— JOHNNY HALCOVICH CAPTAINING THE HUSKY NINE. . . One of the main-stays of Doc Wagner 's veteran-packed infield this season was Johnny Halcovich, former Shamokin High Greyhound great, in his fourth year as a diamond regular for the Bloom baseball squad. John paced the '54 Huskies at the bat, with a homing .425 average, and in the first five games of the '55 season has hit safely six times, which is better than an avgrage of one hit a game. For the past three seasons, Johnny was the first string second sacker for the College Hill boys, but with a surplus of good material at the keystone sack. Doc Wagner moved John over to third base so the easy-going, free-swinger could display his versatility at the hot corner. John is the third of the Husky athletic captains this season that is fr om Shamokin , (Tom Persing, a co-captain in football and Red Welliver who captained the mat squad). While at Shamokin High School, John played two years of varsity basketball and captained the Greyhound cagers of Coach Frank Van Devender a former Bloomsburg great himself . John earned his varsity monagram three years in baseball also, while playing under Coach Bob Head , and in his senior year also was the captain of the diamond crew, so it is easy to see that he had a good back ground not only for being the good ballplayer he is but for the chores of the Huskies field leader as well. In the fall of '51, after his graduation from Shamokin High , John started at the Friendly College as a secondary student, majo ring in science and math . In the sprin g of '52, John made his first varsity letter under Coach Bob Redman as the on),y frosh in the starting line-up. It was during this season that John saw and played with the two best baseball players he has seen on Mt. Oly m pu s , Don Butler and George Lambrinos. Butler was an outfielder that could really hit the long ball, while Don played organized ball in the farm chains of both the Pirates and the Cards. Lambrinos a big catcher from Johnson City, New York graduated from Bloom and went south to play in the Texas-Arizona League, and other minor leagues . In the summers Johnny keeps in shape by playing in the Shamokin City League; while powdering the ball over the lot in this capacity, he played with two different championship teams , Shamokin Home Association and Krebs. John never was able to win the batting crown in this Hague, but he was payed a great tribute two different years and that was the Best Sportsmanship Award, which is given annually by the league to the player that demonstrates the best elements of good sporstmanship on and off the field. After graduation this spring, John is like many other male graduates, pledged to Uncle Sam for a couple of years; but after that teaching and coaching are to be given a try by the personable athelete , so good luck and our best wishes goes out to a guy that has played a lot of base hits over a period of four years for the Huskies. BLOOMSBURG WINS SECOND PLACE IN MILE RELAY . . . Last Friday Coach Shelly took five of his fastest cinder pounders to Philadelphia for the 61st annual running of the Uuiversity of Pennsylvania's famed Penn Relays and the Husky thin clads were able to take second place in the mile relay of the State Techers Colleges behind West Chester. The relay team which won silver medals for their efforts in this Nationally televised carnival, was John Wool who ran the first leg of the journey, Ross Bartleson the second, Eddie Watts the third , and Jim Browning the anchorman. At the passing of the baton from Wool to Bartelson, Bloomsburg was between a third and fourth place in the race, Ross then took the Maroon and Gold team into a strong second place and was challenging the winning West Chester team when his quarter of the race was completed. Watts and Browning were then able to hold this place but West Chester was never challenged again as they sped the distance in 3:29 while Bloomsburg ran a creditable 3:33. Bloomsburg was also a contestant in the Half-Mile Relay of America and took' fourth place in the heat , which was one place out of the qualifying requirements. This relay team was made up of Jim Browning, John Wool, Eddi e Watts and Al Tusker running the final 220 yards. It was somewhat of a thrill to Coach Shelly, as this was the first time he has taken a team to the Franklin Field Classic that was able to win medals and turn in such a fine showing. Bloomsburg has another chance to avenge this West Chester defeat, and that being at the State Championship meet of the Teachers Colleges. Huskies Defeat Mansfield Nine In Home Contest The Bloomsburg State Teachers College Baseball team kept up their winning ways by dropping the Mansfield STC nine, 8 to 3 on the Mount Olympus diamond. Charlie Kwaitoski drew the mound duties for the day, and pitched 8 innings of superb . baseball. Charlie was lifted for a pinchhitter in the 8th., but only after recording his 2nd win of the season. Joe Williams started on the hill for the Mountaineers and had the Huskies eating out of his hand in the early innings. However, the Huskies finally got to him, and he was relieved. Williams will go on record as the losing pitcher. The Lads from College Hill started the scoring off in the 3rd, with 1 out Shustack singled to lef t. Kwaitkoski walked, Charlie Casper advanced Shustack to 3rd and forced Kwaitoski out at 2nd on fielders choice. Halkovitch then singled in Shustack from 3rd and Casper scored from 1st on an error on the play. Mansfield came back to life ifl the 4th when Tom Dewey led off with a home run hit to deep center field. The next two batters went out 3rd to 1st. Then Ken Kutney hit the ball to deep left field for another homer. The Huskies bounced right back in the ball game in the home half of the fourth . Fisk and Boughner singled to start things off , Bob Stroup's attempt to sacrafice was thwarted as pitcher Williams threw to 3rd to pick off Fisk. and Stroup went to 1st on the fielders choice. The double steal was on and Stroup and Boughner advanced to 2nd and 3rd. Bob Cumens singled to score Boughner and advance Stroup to 3rd, the bal was thrown to the catcher to keep Stroup from scoring and Cumns went to second on the play. Shustack grounded to 3rd and Bob Stroup raced home as the 3rd baseman decided to get Shustack at 1st. In the 6th inning Boughner led off with a single, stole 2nd, went to 3rd on a wild pitch, and scored on Shustack's double to rightcenter field. Bloom added 3 more runs in the 8th, when Stroup reached 1st on an error. Terry Zackowski followed suit and also got to 1st safely on a miscue. Shustack continued his hitting ways and singled Stroup home and advanced Terry to 3rd. Zackowski then scored on a wild pitch. Bob Boyle entered the game as a pinch-hitter for the pitcher, and drew a walk forcing Shustack to 2nd , Another newcomer into the lineup, John Oustrich, who promptly singled and drove Shustack home with the Huskies final tally, The Mountaineers threatened in the 9th when Merritt led off with a double and 3rd baseman Kutney singled him home for Mansfield's 3rd and final score of the game.

Unbeaten Huskies Wagners Huskies Post 6*3 Victory Halt Kutztown's Over Lock Haven Golden Avalanche The Huskies of Bloomsburg State Teachers College remained in the unbeaten ranks by defeating Lock Haven Teachers Saturday, 6—3. The game was played on Mount Olymp us. It is interesting to note that it was the first time that Bloomsburg beat their archrivals since 1951. That year they split , Bloom winning at home and losing at Lo ck Haven. Saturday the boys from Lock Haven scored two quick runs in the first inning. Coach Wagner started lefty John Huda. They scored two runs on a single, error, a base on balls, and a single to drive in the two runs. On a very unusual play the Bloomsburg deHaven off third base to prevent further damage. Huda settled aown alter tnat and retired the side with little trouble in the second. In the bottom, half of the inning, how ev er, things started to "pop " for the enthusiastic gathering. Back to back singles by Stroup, Cumens, and Casper brought one run across. Bob DiPipi then drove two more home with a solid single to left putting the home team ahead. Lock Haven tied the score in the fourth on a base hit through the middle and a hard hit grounder to short that DiPipi booted, and a single down the right field line. There was a force out and strike out sandwiched in. The Huskies took the lead again in the fifth inning when Halcovich beat out a grounder to short and when the throw went into center fi eld , he ended up at third base. Harv Baughner then brought him in with a long tripl e. The Huskies picked up two insurance runs in the lucky seventh. Halcovich lined a single to center and went to third on a hit-and-run single by Fisk . Ed Shustack then poked a single into right, scoring Halovich. A t thi s point , Mulchan came in to pitch for Lock Haven. Both runners advanced on a passed ball. Fisk scored on Stroup 's fly to right to make it 6—3. Huda hails from Factoryville, Penna., where a few years back another pretty fair pitcher made his home. His name—Christy Matthewson.

[ / f f ^ f The charges of Coach E. Paul Wagner made it four in a row when they j ourneyed to Kutztown to take the Golden Avalanche to task by a 11—9 count in a grueling battle that lasted over four hours, and saw the lead change hands no less than seven times. Doc Wagner used four pitchers in an attempt to save his third league victory, and Kutztown used three hurlers in a hitters contest that saw the Huskies post fourteen hits and the Golden Avalanche mark-up thirteen. Bloomsburg scored two runs in their half of the scond but Kutztown came right back and notted the score in the bottom of the second inning. Bloomsburg posted its third run in the top of the third and the Berks County tutors added three to their cause in the bottom of the thi rd. Kutztown picked up another two runs in their half of the fourth making the score read Kutztown 7- Bloomsburg 3, after six full innings. The Lads from the Hill went to work in the top of the seventh when th ey had a big five run rally to put them in a commanding 8—7 lead. Kutztown came right back in the bottomof the seventh frame and posted another run to again knot the score, this time eight all. Bloomsburg went scoreless in their portion of the eighth, but the Avalanche picked up another to give them an 9—8 advantage. in the Huskie halt of the ninth, Bob Boyle put the finishing touches to the Kutztown nine when he pinch singled to drive in two urns and coupled with another run gave the Locals a final lead of 11—9. John Huda, the frosh sensation, came on in the bottom of the ninth and pitched the final three outs to insure the victory. It was a big day at the plate for Eddie Shustack, the fleetfooted center fielder, as he hit safely four out of five and scored four big runs for the Husky caust. Harv Boughner and Chuck Casper also had two hits each. Husk ies Rally to Eke Out Victory Over Maura ders The Bloomsburg State Teachers College Huskies undefeated nine turned in its fifth consecutive win of the season here Saturday by a score of 3—2. Millersville stranded thirteen base runners on the sacks during the contest. The Huskies were down two runs at the end of the first inning and weren't able to even up until the seventh. They won the game in the eighth when Henry, a southpaw brought in from left field to pitch to lefthander Fisk, walked the Danville pasture boy. j onn xiuaa, me soutnpaw from shape for the next one. He wasn't Saturday, and a run was in, and the bases loaded until Doc "Casey " Wagner pulled a strategic gem.
