Up The Male Scene By TAG Allow us to clamor on the highland band wagon a wee bit late. Hae ye seen all the plaid we hae seen ? Sport shirts, belts, ties, coats, sport j ackets, underwear shorts, ad infinitum ; and ye can e'en get plaid undies for ye bonnie lassie. Pl aid shi r ts , belts, and ties have been around for some time. Only lately have they started to go authentic in their tartans. The j ackets, sport j ackets, shorts , and swimming trunks are relatively recent on the scene. Most of the shirts are Ivy League styled with button-down or tab collars. Some even have a button at the back of the collar and a box-pleated back. Many are made to fit like your dress shirts with accurate sleeve measuremen t s. Thfe black watch plaid is dark and popular following the present style trend . We have a wee bit of a tendency to favor the brighter tartans to contrast with the ithas-to-be-dark theme. For inst ance, the Dress McPherson or Dress McLeod tartan should mix 100 proof with a pair of charcoal trousers. Speaking of color, than ks to a woman designer, we men now have a wider color selection in sla cks. Next time you visit your favorite men's department take a look at the charcoal browns, charcoal blues, and charcoal greens. For winter coverts, gabardines, worsteds, and flannels are favored. Naturally they are styled with narrow waistbands, no pleats, and tapered legs. Some even have a back strap for those who might lose weight . Cheers for: Bud Sheridan 's MacDonald clan sport shirt with spread collar ; Ken Weir 's black watch plaid sport shirt with button-down, button-back collar; John Williams' plaid sport jacket with predominant reds and blues; Don McLean 's authentic scarf in McLean tartan ; George Vivacqua 's plaid shirt with wide, spread collar and outstanding reds on white with hints of green. That is the way we think. Keep cool . Peop le We Know ? ? Joanne Hester, a senior business student, came to Bloomsburg from Watson town, Pa. As Editor-inChief of the 1956 Obiter, Jo has a very busy year ahead of her, but those who know her will agree that she is the girl who can do it. Her enthusiasm and ambition go hand in hand . "Jo's" interests and hobbies inclu de dan cing, swimming, tennis, collecting stuffed animals, modern novels, and sentimental songs. Last year marked an important one in Jo's college career. It was then that she capably handled the editor's position on the Maroon and Gold. She also served on the M & G news staff and editorial board. During her j unior year, she worked^ on the editorial boards of both the Olympian and the Obiter. The Waller Hall Association kept Jo busy with the vice-presidency last year and the Governing Board two years ago. Jo's activities include membership in the Business Education Club, College Choir, Dramatic Cl u b , F.T.A., Women 's Chorus, L.S.A., Alpha Psi Omega, Kappa Delta Pi , and Pi Omega Pi. As you can see, Jo's leadership has already been proven countless times, and we feel confident that an excellent yearbook will be added to her accomplishments here.

Olympus. The issue was never in aouot as the Yohemen enjoyed their own way almost without exception. The Lads from College Hill piledup a net of 260 yards rushing on the ground to a meager 22 yards for the visiting purple and gold charges. The Huskies had numerous scoring opportunities that went by the boards in the opening stanza, pushed a score across in the second and held a 7-0 halftime advantage. In the third frame the Killinger-led gridders scored but only because of a Bloomsburg fumble on their own 20-yard line. This score only served to make the final blow mote interesting. In the fourth period the Huskies pushed another tally into the end zone and made it a bit more certain with a bonus field goal with less than four minutes remaining in the "contest". i nis was a. guvu. we&L \_iiesuex mthQ Moref hn Wn..mi the $ngsd}I liem Got plans for a grand holiday ?

The Huskies have threatened to play an outstanding game all season, but Saturday they lived-up to the pre-season ratings that nad them tabbed with the oest of recent Bloomsburg elevens, when they showed for the first time examples of the caliber of play they had been capable of but failed to present. The defensive play, as the statistics will prove, was savage. Almost without exception tackles were made by three, four and even five players at one time. The Husky line was never any better than Saturday at Mt . Olympus. The opening: quarter saw the Huskies hold the Bams for three plays and then force them to punt on their fourth down. Bloomsburg faithfuls rose to their feet in sickening despair as the Ram punt was fumbled and an alert West Chester end recovered on the Local's 40 yard line. However, the big forward wall of the Yohemen weren 't to be denied, as they dug in and held. The remainder of the first quarter was all Bloomsburg as Big Harry Hughes broke thru to block a Harrington punt, but again the Huskies weren't able to score. In the second quarter a Harrington punt rolled dead on the 32 yard line of the locals. From this point the boys from the Hill marched 68 yards to pay dirt. It was started by a five yard advance on the part of Bob Rainey. On the next play he caught a glimpse of daylight and raced 43 yards to the 20 yard stripe of West Chester. Harvey Boughner bulled through for ten more to the ten. Jimmy Browning did a tip toe dance to the goal line and Mike Lashendock took it over on a quarterback sneak. Bob Rainey split the uprights on his attempt for the P.A.T. and the score read Bloomsburg 7, West Chester 0. Before the half came a Lashendock to Browning ariel covered ( Continued in col. 4-5 ) . b y ric hard mease "How much do we get this summer?" "Will our checks be reduced during summer school?" "Why do they deduct a month from us when they pay us for only half a month ?" These are but a few of the questions which swamped Dean Hoch's office this summer, and gave many a G.I. heartburn .

Conference game, and their fourth win in six starts by a 7—6 score Saturday afternoon at air-conditioned Mt. Olympus. It was a hard rought game ail the way and neither team was able to penetrate deep in the other 's te rrito ry in the first quarter . However , near th e end of the first quarter Bob Groover, Seni or fr om Wat sonto wn, intercepted a Milchovich pass on the 36 yard line. With Joe Malczyk carryin g th e ball , the huskies dove to the 22 yard line before Malczyk fumbled this point until the end of the first half the Vulcans controlled the ball most of the time, however, they were unable to score. On one occasion they drove to the five yard line and picked up a first down. The Husky defense held, and the Vulcans were forced to give the ball up on downs. The goal line stand by the Huskies proved to be an important factor in the final outcome of the game. Bloomsburg started to roll in the middle of the third quarter. They took a Vulcan punt on their own thirty and drove down field 70 yards for their only touchdown. With Groover, Boughner, and Malczyk carrying the ball, the Huskies rolled with one first down after another. Finally Joe Malczyk went over from the four yard line and Bo Rainey converted the extra point and the Huskies led 7—0. After a series of punt returns the Vulcans started their drive down field. They received control of the ball on their own 48 yard line. Maley and Forman carried the ball on four first downs to the five where the Huskies put up another goal line stand. On fourth down Wiita went over for the score. It was at this time, in the fading minutes of the last quarter, that Joe Malczyk blocked Byron Bakewell's attempted placement and the Huskies retained the lead 7—6. Bloomsburg then ran out the clock and Bob Asb^s punt put California deep in their territory with only seconds remaining on the clock. The two high point s that will be remembered by the small crowd were Joe Malczyk's block of th e Vulcan placement attempt and the Huskies desperate goal line stand in the second quarter that ruined Calif orni a's bid for a touchdown.

If the game were played in Brooklyn the lead would probably read "The West Chesters is Dead" or "This Is Next Year." No more waiting for next year, no more re-playing the West Chester game all winter and most of the following spring; for the first time in four seasons the Lads from College Hill turned the trick, for the first time in* Jack Yohe's reign on the Mt. Olympus there has been "no school Monday". Victory is always sweet, but when you beat a good team it is ju st a littl e sw eeter . West Chester was a good team. Make no mistake, the Yohemen completely outclassed a team that only had lost to unoeaten Drexel ( which currently possess a string of eleven straight) and once beaten Youngstown ( Ohio) University; they were unbeaten in Teacher College competition. West Chester has always been the aristocracy of small college athletics in Pennsylvania. Even in the pre-war period, West Chester ruled without exception over her sister institutions when it came to athletics. And why not, West Chester has the larges t enrollment, they are a physical education school, they have the pick of the Philadelphia area scnools, and finally, tney nave Glenn Kiiimger. Kniy has Deen at West Chester tor the last thirty football seasons, and they have never had a losing season in those thirty years. Glenn Kiilinger is well qualified to guide the destiny of West Chester football and baseball teams, he was named to Walter Camp's 1921 all-American eleven, first team backfield while a student at Penn State. He played major league baseball and was a minor league manager oeiore going to W est Cnesier. Gienn Kiilinger is a pro who likes to win. Jack Yohe served as a backfield coach for Kiilinger for five years. Saturday was the first time that Coach Yohe's teams haven't had to face a West Chester backfield that featured Yohe-coached backs. Hersch, Prender, Spaford, Neiman, MacAnneny and many others who wrecked the Huskies for three years are all gone and' this is the first that West Chester has fielded a team since '46 without Yohe-coached backs. "Old Killy" seemed to sense that his gods of the Teachers Conference were being dealt a death blow Saturday, but what probably hurt more was that they were being eclipsed by a team that was led by his former lieutenant Jack Yohe, and a former protege, Walt Blair. The end of every champion is inevitable;the only difference is that some die harder than others. West Chester died hard. Coach Yohe watched with a deepgained satisfaction as time ran out on the aristocracy of Teacher tootball, they had ruled for so long, and against his team they were at his mercy. The setting was Mt . Olympus, the Huskies were playing the role of the Troj an Horse, the underdogs lying in waiting for the Golden Rams, outlined by a blue-gray November sky and a crisp autumn air added to the spectacle. It was truly a vision fit for the gods. . . the twilight of the champions. LOCK HAVEN VICTORY NEEDED . , . If the Huskies are to wear the crown for 1955 as football champions of the Teachers Conference a victory is needed over Lock Haven this Saturday. Lock Hayen started out the '55 campaign like a house-on-fire knocking off Shippensburg, California, Mansfield , Stroudsburg and then dropping a tough 14—0 decision to West Chester. Lock Haven looked as though they might well be tabbed the dark horse of the Tutor loop. Last Saturday they came from behind to tie a highly improved Lycoming eleven 14—14. All this would point to the fact that the Huskies are in for a rough afternoon for the fifty-five finale, but add this to the already impressive billing, Lock Haven State Teachers College has decided to drop Bloomsburg, West Chester, and Shippensburg as of this season. (Continued from col. 2) 54 yards to the Ram 9 yard line, but it wasn't in the books for a Bloom score from this point as they lost the ball on downs on the 4 yard line.

A short interview with the "kiddies" to get their opinion concerning Bermudas brought forth this statement: "They're swell for playing in sandboxes and chasing squirrels. " j Charley Abenmoha lost his breakfast 30b in the Dining Room last week. Reason—he was buttering the toast on the wrong side. Let's get on the ball, Abe! Hats off to George Vivacqua and Bob Gower for organizing the white-j acketed drill and cheering team. Coaches Yohe and Blair got a free cleaning job done on their suits after the West Chester game. The players threw them in the showers after our gridiron victory ! They couldn 't lift Mr. Shelly, so he got off easy. It was a pleasure cheering for the team last Saturday and we know all you readers will be rooting with both of us at the Lock Haven game. Stopped in the Dean of Women's Office the other day and saw the following notice on the bulletin board: Our social regulations are based on common sense and good taste. Women students have never been permitted in the residence of men students. (Waller and North Halls ) At present, many men students must be housed off campus. Their residences in town are in the same category as campus residences. Women students are not permitted in them.—Didn't know there was a problem.

The government uses a month oomposed of 30 days in its computation of educational payments and deductions of training days. In other words, all G.I.s would receive the same monthly income during summer school as they would during the fall and winter semesters. The payments for the regular college year begin registration day in September and continue, without any deductions for holidays, until commencement day in May. Likewise, the payments for summer school would begin registration day in J une and continue, without any deductions for holidays or course registration, until the end of summer school in August.
