Mr. Sneider, a relatively unknown author, wrote this novel, a satire on American military government, and it was later optioned to John Patrick, who adapted it to the stage and created a sensation on Broadway. This is the point of Mr. Herman's study : Why was the original author overlooked, since Patrick won much acclaim for "Tea House of August Moon", including the Pulitzer Prize? As part of his research , George Herman wrote to both Mr. Sneider and Mr. Patrick. He received a most warm and informative letter from Sneider and a very cool letter from the secretary to Patrick's agent refusing to give out any information. All this is part of a most interesting project being undertaken by the members ot Mr. DeVoe's English II class. They are working on library papers which differ from the usual English research papers in that they deal, tor the most part , with modern American literature. Mrs. Betti& Cobley has an interesting topic. She is reiuting Mr. Flesch's Why Johnny Can't Head with her paper "Why Johnny Can Read". Ed MacDonald is doing research on the Pottsville, Pa., novelist .

Kemp, now almost eighty years old, is living in Provincetown, Mass. One of his idiosyncracies is his habit of taking a plunge in the ocean daily throughout the year. Maxwell Perkins, a former editor of Scribner's, is Paul Troutman's topic. It was Perkins who first recognized the genius in Hemingway, Wolfe, Jones, and Fitzgerald. Ben Hecht , one of today's most promising writers is the subje ct of Dave Doublestine. Hecht recently collaborated on the writing of the motion picture "Ulysses ". The research on these and other writers oi today being made by these students has uncovered much valuable information in the field of literature information which has yet to be crystallized in textbooks.

Santa Glaus will carry a billion dollar pack to the nation's children this year. Store managers prepare months ahead for the boom in trade which begins at Thanksgiving. As the season approaches they induce people to overspend by offering "Christmas specials". Some go so far as to send carols and hymns into the streets or through the store over loudspeakers. Clerks with tired feet wait on customers with droop ing shoulders—not much "good will toward men" there. How rewarding it must have been when pioneers fashioned their gifts with thoughtful care. Carloads of evergreens are shipped into cities and distributed to street corners and markets where shivering people come to choose one and dicker over the price. Our hearty forefathers hiked into the woods to chop down their tree and drag it home. Making the decoration of cranberries and popcorn was a family affair. Yule displays are more extravagant than ever with their colored lights and animated figures. When the children see Santa's workshop, visions of sugar plums don't dance through their heads. No, they are too busy adding to the list of "I wanna" by persuading their parents that they have been good enough all year to merit a bicycle and a watch. Our nation's children years ago were thrilled if they received a corn silk doll or homespun shirt. What has happened?

A Gift for Michael and Christians help put the Star flag ? Come out from under the and untangle yourself from the real meanings of what you are j by DORIS BROWN "Sniff!" * A large tear fell into a tiny, pillow like cloud. "Sniff , sniff!" Two more tears fell, and the cloud became a little bigger. "What is it, Michael ? Is something wrong?" a deep, masculine voice asked gently. "Oh!" Michael looked up, startled . "Sir, I --1 -- didn't - - -". He brushed away his tears. "You didn't what, Michael?" The Voice was ever so soft and gentle. Michael trembled. "I - -1 didn 't think you could hear me, Sir." "Now, Michael," the Voice reprimanded kindly, "y ou know I can h ear everything." "I thought, well, you are always so busy and since I'm so little and unimportant — " "Michael, you know that everyone is important to me," the Voice stated matter-of-factly. "Now tell me why you are crying." "Well, Sir, it's like this . Every angel has someone on earth to watch over. Every angel 'cept me, and, golly Sir, I sure would like to watch • over someone!" "But you are very small, Michael and inexperienced. Guardian angels must be reliable and dependable ," the Voice explained. "Gee whiz!" said the small angel, "I only wanted to guard a little person . And besides how can I get experience if I can't be someone's guardian angel?" "It's such an important job," the Voice said. "I know, Sir. I've listened to the others talking about it. You assigned Angela to watch over someone. If she can do it, why can't I?" "Well- -" the Voice began. "Please, Sir , please ? I'll be very, very careful; and I'll try hard to be reliable." "If you are sure that is what you want?" the Voice was questioning. "Oh, I do, I do!" cried Michael gleefully. The Voice went on , "There is a baby boy being born. You may take care of him for the first few years . of his life. However, you must be exceptionally watchful. This baby is very important. " "I will, Sir. Oh! I will!" the tiny angel broke in. He was almost jumpIng for j oy. "If you ever need any help, come to Me. I will always be close by." The Voice was a bit stern. "Yes, Sir, I will," promised Michael soberly. Wait until I tell the others! he thought . "Oh," he said as an afterthought , "where can I find this very important baby?" The Lord pointed to a very bright light in the heavens. "Do you see that ? Under the star is a stable. Go there quickly ! You will find the baby wrapped in swaddlin g clothes and lying in a manger." by M argie Last week at C.G.A., Joan Yohn, a recently elected member of Council was introduced. She will act as woman representative of the Sophomore Class. Since the constitution of all college organizations must be approved by College Council, Elmer Robinson, president, submitted the Dormitory Men's Constitution. After several revisions-were made, the Constitution was adopted. The chairman of the Awards Committee presented several policy revisions on the point system, for awarding service keys. This committee will present more information at the next meeting. Our Husky Lounge will finally sport a new 24" table model TV set which will be financed by the Furniture and Equipment Reserve for Refunds and New Projects. The members of College Council have been asked to remind students to refrain from lingering outside the dining room until the last few minutes of serving time. At the present time, regularly scheduled meetings are still being announced in assembly. Council agreed to inform the Assembly Committee to remind the criers to disregord these since announcements are supposed to be turned into Dean Hoch's office for public posting. lhe next meeting or college Council will be held December 12 before our Christmas recess. Honor Roll of Hits To use the old adage—"Merry Christmas everybody". Even Stan Freeburg is saying that these days on his latest record, "Th e Nigh t Before Christmas". To follow that one up, you could try listening to Spike Jones' "The Night After Christmas". As you can easily see by that last paragraph, the Christmas spirit is really moving in. Carols and hymns, favorites of past years and even centuries, are being recorded even more beautifully than ever . For some unusually good listening in the line of Christmas music try listening to "An Album of Christmas Music by Monatvoni". Along with the standards of the past "Blue Christmas", "I'll Be Home for Christmas", and "White Christmas", each year there seems to be a novelty tune that makes a big hi t . For example, we have had "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer" and "All I Want For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth". Well, this year a little man is making a big hit with his recording, too. It is, of course, "I'm Gettin ' Nuttin' for Christmas" by lititle Barry Gordon. say, ao any or you rememDer Helen Kane ? Well, if you don't remember the name you may remember her as the "Boop-boop-adoop Girl" of the flapper age. She is making a comeback and has j ust recorded an extended single play for MGM. The songs recorded are some of the classics of the roaring twenties. They are "That's My Weakness Now", ''When My Sugar Walks Down the Street", "Do Something", and "When I Get You Alone Tonight". Speaking or remaie vocalists, we see where perky Peggy King of the George Goebel Show has j ust recorded her first really big hit— "Learning to Love". A few other pop hits that certainly must be mentioned are "Dancing in My Socks" and "Daddy-O" by Bonnie Lou, "All at Once You Love Her" by Perry Como, "I t' s Almost Tomorrow" by Jo Stafford , "Only You" by the Platters and "Moments to Remember " by the Four Lads. m We goofed! Our apologies to Don MacLean for an Irish spelling of nisi Scottish name. m Although we agree emphatically that they look better on girls, vvj i do like sweaters tor men on any campus. Sweaters can be woven in thS soft and elegant cashmere, or the not-so-expensive lamb's wool, or xnorM recently, alpaca wool, or the warm, washable, and long wearing man* made fibers—orlon , dacron, and nylon. at The V-neck classic 'seems to be the favorite at BSTC. Take a loollj around on some sweatery day. During the week when the laundry doesffl only five shirts, it even looks fairly well with a T-shirt. It also wears« well with a tie under a casual suit. 11 We also like the crew-neck pull-over with its variety of patterns ancffl colors—many in original Scandinavian designs. It can be warn with M dress shirt; or if your neck is naturally warm, wear it (the sweater)™ alone. M The cardigan coat sweater has emerged this year with a low opening]! which keeps it hidden under a buttoned suit jacke t. It also doubles as -M decorative vest when the jacket hangs open . Another substitute for afl vest is a very sharp European pull-over surplice with or without sleevesjj Not to omit the turtle neck—this year it seems that some of the necksa can be rolled different way to show different colors. a Now that, the ice has formed on the lagoon, we can assume that it i Jj really winter.

Will you teach in Pennsylvania?! How much do you expect to earn the first year ? Most of us at BloomS have contemplated these questions at one time or another. Last year's a graduating class found the answers to these queries, and related the 3 information to us through the annual follow-up survey of graduates, 3 ju st completed by the Placement Service of this college. According to 3 Dr. Ernest H. Engelhardt, Directoi- of Placement, all members of the I class of 1955 replied to the annual follow-up letter. 1 j_.asi year s ciass numDerea xo-a. ui mese, tweniy-one are in tneaa Armed Services and two in graduate schools. Of the remaining 131 % available for employment, 120, or ninety-two percent, are teaching s school. Only five members of the entire class chose to go into gainful ! occupations other than teaching. Five women graduates are married 3 and busy at homemaking. One graduate is unemployed at the present s time. On the basis of the foregoing information , you may conclude that | you will probably teach school after leaving college. gj Using the class of 1955 as a basis, your chances of teaching in Penn- d sylvania are better than three-to-one. Only 21% of last year's graduates accepted teaching positions outside this state. In 1954 34% of the class ^ | taught out-of-state for the first year. The trend to Pennsylvania is prob- I ably due to a sligh t increase in beginning teacher's salaries. President J Andruss, commenting on the Placement report , observed that pending [ legislation providing for regular increments of $200 and additional in- ; crements of $150, totalling $350 per year, will undoubtedly help to hold ; presently employed and recently graduated teachers in their home state '' of Pennsylvania. Last year's graduates are earning an average of $3,121.36 for their ; firs t year. That figure is based on 103 known salaries. Beginning salaries • in Pennsylvania range from $2,400 to $3,700 per year. Eighty 1955 grad- 3 uates, whose beginning salary is known are earning an average salary 3 of $3,042.50 in our state. This compares to an average beginning salary J| of $3,352.18 paid to our 1955 graduates teaching out-of-state . You can earn anywhere from $3,000 to $3,800 during your first year of teaching ^J outside Pennsylvania. However, before you rush to another state to j teach , you better consider taxes, cost of living, working conditions, and m I* numerous other factors which affect your job . In conclusion , if you follow the trend set by the majority of our 1955 "! class , you will teach school in Pennsylvania, with a beginning salary of ; ' j $3,042.50. fl t j _ _ . « _ i _ _ _ i _ _ i -« e~ » For you j azz lovers—Capitol has once again recorded a number of -f albums that might interest you.

In addition to the supero perrormance every year at Carver Auditorium, the members participate in weekly workshop productions. Every Tuesday at the regular meetings of the club, a group of members select, direct, and dramatize a play for the entertainment of their leilow workers. Everyone is required to participate in at least one play per semester. This aixords trie piayers excellent practice and experience in that they receive suggestions and criticisms from each other. Special attention is placed upon lighting, setting, atmosphere, acting, and facial expression. The following include some of the recent workshop plays: The Pot Boiler, by Alice Gustenberg, was directed by Deanna Morgan and Gerald Donmoyer. The cast included Donald Schlaugh, Walter Fox, Gerald Donmoyer, Joe Tosko, Margaret Wilkenson, Joe Andryseck and Barbara Brunner.

VETERAN S ' PIPE LINE . . .by . .AR ? M.EAS.E RICH "Congratulations. Mac, you sure look like a proud father." "Gl ad t o see you finally tied the knot, Joe." "So you chased her till she finally caught you!" These are but a few of the cheery greetings most of us vets have experienced or may experience in the future. But where do we go from here? What must be done to receive an increased allotment from the Veterans Administration ? i The veteran who seeks an increased allowance for his wife, should, after indicating the change on his monthly "Certification of Training" sheet, send to the VA a certified or photostatic copy of his public or church record of marriage, along with a VA form called "Declaration of Marital Status." Other records will be needed if the veteran, or his wife, have been married before. in the event that an increase in the family takes place, the veterantrainee should submit to the VA a certified or photosatic copy of the public birth record or baptism certificate of the child. In order for an increased allowance request to be retroactive, it must be made within 45 days of the marriage date or child' s date of birth. The evidence of marriage or birth—respective certified or photostatic copies—must then be submitted within one year of original request. The actual retroactive payment will not be made, however, until the VA receives the necessary establishing entitlement to the extra pay. Finally, veteran-trainees should promptly notify the VA if any of the following occur: (1) They change their address. (2) They plan to change their training program. (3) They leave or drop out of training. (4) Their dependency status is changed, through divorce, birth of a child , or death of a dependent. In notifying the VA, a veteran should be sure to give his claim number and full name and address, because all veterans' records are filed by claim number , and by using the claim number a veteran can assure himself of faster service. * * * Payment Stops Q. If a Korean veteran has 32 months and 14 days of eligible education and training under the Korea GI Bill, which would take him one month into the last 18-week semester, would payments stop then ? A. Yes, since settlement runs out with less than a maj or part of the semester completed. Under the GI Bill where a veteran attends a school which operates on a quarter or semester basis and his period of entitlement ends after a maj or part of a quarter or semester, his entitlement will be extended to the end of that quarter or semester. * * * Education and LoaiiH Q. If a veteran used the education benefit of the Korean GI Bill, would he be entitled to use the GI loan guaranty ? A. Yes.

Thirty Year Rivalry Between Bloomsburg And West Chester For many years West Chester has been one of our strongest oponents. The history of this rivalry is an interesting one. On October 30. 1925, Bloomsburg State Normal School lost a football game to West Chester State Normal School by a j score of 12-0. This game is the earliest on record, as found in past issues of the Maroon and Gold . Evidently at thi s time very little interest was shown by the school as only two or three short sentences were devoted to the entire game. The following year, 1926, there was a short pre-game write up, stating that this was a traditional battle . How ev er , no results were found as to the outcome of the game. aioomsi>urg again in 192 ( , played and lost to West Chester. This year, however, there was a change to be noted in the game. Bloomsburg was no longer a State Normal School, for only one week prior to the game, it was reorganized as a State Teachers College. In 1928 and '29, Bloomsburg fared no better than in preceding years. West Chester remained the stronger of the two teams in each game. More spiri t seemed evident by the fact that much more information was given concerning the details of the game. From 1930 up until 1949. the Huskies and Rams did not participate in competition with each other. In 1950 the rivalry was renewed, West Chester again being the victor, This was the first game Bloomsburg h ad dropped to any team in 14 prior games. By being defeated, Bloomsburg lost the State Teachers College championship to West Chester. Because of the pre-game tension this game became the season's biggest gridiron attraction . Although these two teams had not. seen action together for 19 years, the keen rivalry appeared immediately because of the laurels that rested on the outcome of the game. Again in 1951, because of the supremacy of both teams, the Bloomsburg-West Chester football game was the biggest attraction of the se ason . Three reasons urged Bloomsburg to win this game. They were—1. revenge. 2. a possibility of an undefeated season, 3. State Teachers Conference laurels. That year, Dig tnings started popping in preparation for the game. A parade which included three bands and the Magee calliope was held. The parade was followed by the best rally ever, up to that time. A dance was also held in the lounge afterward. This week-end was said to have been the big event of the season . The one that everyone had looked forward to since October. The Huskies did not disappoint th eir followers this time. They "got back" at West Chester by beating them by a score of 16-17. They later went on to finish an undefeated season, and gathered all the laurels mentioned above. In 1952-1953-and 1954 there was much for the victors of the contest to gain. Both schools supported their respective teams to the hilt. Each had its own parade, pep-rally and dance. However, for three consecutive years Bloomsburg was greatly disappointed by the fact that West Chester proved to be the stronger in the now classical battle. in laDD however, Bioomsmirg , retaliated to take a well-deserved victory over the Rams of West Chester . Again in this year the superiority of both teams influenced the tension between the schools, Pre-game activities were at an all-time high . We, at Bloomsburg, held a parade the night before the game. Following the parade, a very successful pep rally was held in the field adj oining Navy Hall . Still later in the evening the Day Men sponsored a dance in the Husky Lounere. Signs and displays were prominent on the outside of Waller and North Halls, A few very original ones stood out Jn particular, At the game on Saturday, both % teams were well represented. Bloomsburg, in particular, had an exceedingly hich turnout of students and faculty. The spirit and playing of the team, made it quite evident that they appreciated the interest and enthusiasm displayed by everyone, From the general trend of the past 5 years, I would be willing to predict that the Bloomsburg' West Chester rivalry will continue to grow for a good many years to come.

SPORTS SCUTTLEBUTT HI by BILL BITNER H Jb H BASKETBALL REIGNS ON THE MT. OLYMPUS ... What was meant to have been only a stop-gap sportone that would tide athletes over from fall to spring, keeping them in shape for "important" spring, summer and fall sports—has become a monarch — basketball. It is difficult to realize that this relative newcomer to the sports scene has developed since shortly before the turn of the century into a top-ranking spectator event, leading baseball, football and all other major sports. There are a number of reasons for this j ump in popularity, the most outstanding being (1) the larger number of teams participating; (2) the relative inexpensiveness from the standpoint of equipment and facilities ; and (3) the speed of the game and the closeness of the spectators to the acCoach Harold Shelly tion. BASKETBALL IS THE ONLY MAJOR SPORT OF PURELY AMERICAN ORIGIN . . . It was invented—and there is no dispute concerning the father of basketball— by Dr. James A. Naismith, a physical director of the Y.M.C.A. in Springf ield , Mass., in 1891. The first game was played January 20, 1892. We aren't sure how long basketball has been played on the Blooms[burg campus, but we are certain that it has been an active sport for at Beast 40 years. The records of the old College Hill dribblers are always la source of dispute around Pennsylvania's only incorporated town ; a few |of our philosophical alumni would have us believe that some of the caglers from the center-jump era would have been fair competition for the |Harleni Globe Trotters or a team they would have been more familiar with, Boston's Original Celtics. The records of the College's athletie teams are only recorded from 1932 on, so when they start reminiscing about the Huskies of the "peach-basket" days they are on fairly safe ground . We can't dispute the fact that they may have posted win-loss records that would make any coach proud, but they always fail to mention the caliber of competition that was scheduled while the Centennial Gym was still a forest . When they are examining, or looking in retrospect at the "old days" we can never figure out why they don 't mention that Bethlehem High School was three times victimized by the powerful Normal School hardwooders the year that Bloomsburg won 19 of their 20 games scheduled. They would have you believe that basketball hasn't been too successful since the Husky camp was moved from what is today known as the "Husky Lounge." The college has played their post-war basketball schedule in the Centennial Gym and from where we have been sitting this has been a very successful era. True, they haven't won 19 out of 20. but last year's 13 win four loss slate was the best record we could find since '32 record books. Coach Harold Shelly has been guiding the destiny of the College Hill dribblers for the past six seasons and has posted one of the most enviable records in the tutor loop. The Teachers College Conference was born in the basketball season of 1951-52, the Huskies were champs in the second year of its existence. After that season the Shellymen lost six seniors, as a result the following campaign was the poorest for the Cage Huskies, when they jumped out to a 7 win-one loss first half and ended the season with a 9 win 7 loss record . The next year Coach Shelly brought his high-flying Centennial crew back to their winning ways with this 13 and four record which is still the best on the books. Coach Shelly is a graduate of Ohio Northern where he excelled in football , basketball and track. In over fifteen years of coaching the hardwood sport Harold Shelly has never had a lossing record. Coach Shelly came to Bloomburg from a coaching position in one of the largest High Schools in Cincinatti. Since 1949 he has directed basketball and track on the Mt. Olympus, coached soccer until it was discontinued in 1950, and has served as a line coach for the Husky gridders under Bob Redman and Jack Yohe. Many of his products on College Hill are now successful high school coaches as well as some being outstanding professional basketball players. This year's team has started out as though it were cast from the same mold as his outstanding teams of other years. They lost the sharpshooting Fred Betz by graduation from last year's squad but have seven lettermen to draw from for the 55-56 campaign. Leading the pack of returning lettermen is Keith Weiser, a senior letter winner from his frosh year on. Keith hails from Kane, Pennsylvania and played for Lobo Wolves when they were the perennial winners of District Nine. Another senior is Bob Evans, believed by the Husky camp to be the shortest center in the tutor loop, Bob is a former Coal Township dribbler. The only other senior on the squad is the former Radnor great, Mo Morson. Mo, along with Keith and Bob, played on the undefeated freshman team oC four years ago . This was the team that was coached by Buck Byhm. This Saturday, Millersville will invade the Centennial Gym. Millersville is to our baske tball rivalry what West Chester is to our football hopes. We lost twice to the Bishopmen last season, and as a matter of fact , have not beaten them since the championship team of 1952-53 toppled them on our own hardwoods. Our chances for annexing another teacher crown will, of course, depend largely on beating Millersville because they are the defending chnmps of the past two years. Following Millersville will be Lock Haven at Lock Haven, always a tough game. We lost to Lock Haven on their court last year. FOOTBALL 1955 NOW IN THE RECORDS . . .

Both teams fought desperately through a driving snowstorm but were unable to score. Late in the first quarter, Jimmy Browning, versatile Husky halfback, intercepted a pass by Budd Berringer and galloped 70 yards along the sidelines for paydirt. However, a penalty of 15 yards for pushing was called lfainst the Huskies and nullified Browning's great run. Again in the fourth period the Yohemen threatened when Bo Rainey attempted a field goal on the Lock Haven 18. The ball sailed high enough but was off slightly to the right of the goalpost. The tie enabled the Huskies to win the STC conference crown by 12 points over runner-up West Chester—237.5 to 225.5. Early in the game Lock Haven's center, Tony Tate, intercepted a pass by Mike Lashendock to put the ball on the Bloom 18. Budd Berringer tossed what seemed like a sure touchdown pass, but the alert Bob Groover jumped into the air to deflect the ball. Thereafter, with fourth and two, the Huskies capitalized on a high pass from Lock Haven center Tate. Jim Browning and Bob Groover combined to give the Huskies a first down. However, the on-charging Bald Eagle line forced the Yohemen to punt. After an exchange of punts, Lock Haven moved the pigskin to the Huskie 25. Then Budd Berringer faded back and passed into the awaiting arms of Jimmy Browning. Browning ran 70 yards, but to no avail because of a 15 yard penalty chalked against the locals. The Maroon & Gold eleven was forced to kick after an unsuccessful series of downs. me second period was marKed by Bob Asby s fine punts and George Dintiman's superb quickkicks. The Huskies' gigantic center Charlie Skiptunas , intercepted a Berringer aerial and carried to the visitors' 48. "Tanker " Malczyk smashed through the Bald Eagle line f or a first down. Later the Huskies came within striking distance, but the slippery pigskin fell through the arms of hall back Gerald Wood and the Bald Eagles recovered. The second half saw Malczyk do some fine line-bucking for the Yohemen. A Lashendock to Browning pass took the Huskies to the Lock Haven 25. Malczyk carried to the 15, but fumbled and Tate recovered for the visitors. Frank "Killer" Kaminsky and Harry Hughes dashed through the Lock Haven forward wall to block one of Dintiman's punts . Nevertheless, the Bald Eagles maintained possession of the ball, after Joe Bizzaro retrieved the bounding pigskin. Carl DeFebo recovered a Berringer fumble on Lock Haven's 23. Lashendock's heaves to Rainey and Browning were incomplete. As the last period began Bo Rainey's try for a field goal was unsuccessful . With time running out , Johnny Oustrich hurled desperate passes. The Huskies were in Lock Haven territory as the final whistle blew. Considering the harsh weather conditions, the game was wellplayed by both squads. In all there were 10 fumbles; BSTC lost 4, Lock Haven lost 3. The Huskies completed 3 of 16 passes ; the Bald Eagles had 4 of 11 passes completed. The tie gave the Huskies the undisputed possession of firs t place. Last year the locals had to share the crown with West Chester and East Stroudsburg. Miss Barnes Speaks To Kappa Delta Pi The regular monthly meeting of the Gamma Beta chapter of Kappa Delta Pi was called to order by the President , Ed Siscoe. The secretar y's m i nut es were rea d an d approved. Plans for the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Institution of the Gamma Beta Chapter were discussed and the president appointed an arrangement committee. The final voting took place on the three mem bers nom i nated to re present the local chnpter at the National Convention at Oklahoma A & M In March, 1956. The delegate and alternate w ill be named at a later date. An interesting and stimulating program was presented by Miss Barnes. She gave a lecture and Final Year for ^ Six-Letter Man Ends 1955 Season Husk y Mana ger Joe Kwak. a former Coughlin High School great is now in his senior year at BSTC. Joe was a four time winner of the varsity monogram for his outstanding line plays at the Wilkes Barre, Pennsylvania, High School. He also added to his laurels by gathering three varsity letters in wrestling, and four as a member of the Coughlin High track squad. Coach When the better football managers are mentioned at Friendly College, the name of Tom Higgins will never be omitted. Tom hails from Sunbury, Penna., where he gathered much knowledge in the business of caring for a team and their equipment as equipment manager of the "Sunbury Redlegs" baseball team in the old class "B" Inter-State League. w&mmmsiammmmmmmmmwmsmmmmMmm Lou Palermo developed a fine lineman in Joe, and one who is versatile in line play. Joe did not begin his College athletic career at the Friendly College, but transferred here from Rider College. This did not stop his varsity letter winning ways as he played one season at Rider and won the varsity award . At i>ioomsDurg, ne nas Deen a winner of the varsity letter no less than six times; three for football and three as a Husky trackman. Coach Jack Yohe will have a big job filling the big lineman's spot when next season rolls around. When asked about his most remembered moment in sports, Jog told us of a game in which he played for Rider College. He recovered four fumbles, each one setting up a score for the Rider eleven. This would be a great day for any lineman . j -w u pittyem uuc ii.au ^.itrvcu. l\j l his all time great list are : Bernie Mont , for his terrific kicking ability, and Russ Verhousky, one of the best ends ever to wear the Maroon and Gold of Bloomsburg STC. As a hobby. Joe enjoy s reading good books. He does not pin his reading down to any special type but enjoys anything worth reading. He also enjoy s fishing, and other outdoor sports. Upon graduation this spring Joe is planning on marriage, and a career of teaching biological science, and social studies. He would also like to do some coaching. We here at Bloomsburg know all of his teams will be winners as some of his ability is bound to rub off on his pupils. Good luck in the future Joe from your many friends here at BSTC. Shellymen Hammer Davies' Colonel s A strong second-half enabled the Huskies to capture their seconu straight game on Saturday night when they turned the Colonels from Wilkes College 85-60 at Centennial Gymnasium. Good things always come in pairs—Coach Harold Shelly was presented with a 7 lb. baby boy in the afternoon and an 85-60 victory in the evenine. After a slowly played first half the Shellymen roared back to cement the victory early in the second half . The Huskies enjoyed a 38-33 lead at halftime. Led by the sharp shooting of Mo Morson, who con. tributed 14 points in the game, and a fine display of breaking away and ball handling, the Huskies quickly shot ahead and were never to be headed. v eterans L.en kozick, a Junior from Dallas, an d Bob Evans, a Senior from Coal Township, paced the Shellymen with 19 and 16 points respectively. Mo Morson and Bob Boyle played a fine game with 14 and 12 points respectively. Jim Ferris, Colonel guard, was high scorer of the nigh t with 22 pointf,, George Morgan, veteran center , contributed 13 points to the Colone ls cause. The Bloomsburg Frosh team won an abbreviated Junior Varsity contest , due to time difficulty, over the Palmerto n Red Wings by a count of 61-39. showed slides of her recent world wide trip as well as displays from the various countries she visited. Refreshments were served and the meeting adjourned at 9:00 p.m. Not only outstanding in the equipment department, Tom earned two varsity letters as a member of Coach Lapinsky's Sunbury Owls basketball team. After graduation from. Sunbury High School, Tom entered BSTC, dropped out of participation in athletics, and turned to managing the football team. While a student at the College on the Hill, Tom has been football manager four seasons, Consequently he has seen many fine players c&me and go, so instead of asking him to pick a favorite player, we have asked for his choice of an all-star team. The players he chose are ; eenter, Chas. Skiptunas, '56; guards, Tom Shuey and Tom Persing '55; tackles, Dubbs Thomas '55 and Harry Hughes '57; ends, Bob Cumens '55 and Russ Verhousky '53; quarterback , Mike Lashendock '56; halfbacks, Harvey Boughner '56 and Bo Rainey '57; fullback, Barney Osevala '54. Tom says his biggest thrill in sports came in 1953 at New Haven, Conn., when Bob Cumens kicked the PAT that gave the Huskies the win over a fine New Haven STC eleven. As a hobby, Tom likes to keep statistics of BSTC and other college and high school teams in the area. He also enjoys reading and is an ardent fan of sports magazines. It seems Tom makes extra time for activities he enjoys . Last year he served as student director for the annual basketball tournament, and he spends one evening a week drilling with the National Guard. ( "B" Co., 104th Armored Cavalry Division.) Tom is married to the former Alice Fisher . BSTC '55. Mrs. Higgins is an elementary teacher in WUliamsport, where the couple plan to make their home. After graduation Tom would like to teach mathematics, and coach basketball . The s t u d en t s at Bloomsburg will always be grateful for the fine service he has given them . Huskies Topple Cheyney, Opener The 1955-56 edition of the Bloomsburg cagers successfully opened t h e i r inter-collegiate basketball activities by decisively defeating a small, but game, Cheyney State Teachers five in Centenial Gym. The huge crowd in attendance gave strong proof that a spirit, developed during the past football season , will be behind the Huskies all the way. The Shelley-men displaying their usual "wear-em-down" agressive style were too much for the Delaware County teachers as they put together two identical 37 point halves to score an 81-46 victory. Pregame ji tters and tenseness were in evidence ,throughout the first half as wild passes, wild plays and an abundance of fruitless scoring attempts didn't give the Huskies any added prestige. The second half was similar to the first although the percentage of goals made was greater. The characteristic conditioning that only the Shelly coached teams possess is that relentless fast breaking attack from the moment of the first j ump ball to the final buzzer.

We heard that tne exterminator caught five of his brothers the following day. At last we know who stole the cookies from the cookie jar.

The winner will be escorted to the dance by Bo Rainey who was the 669th person to have his chest x-rayed. We're still burping turkey from Thanksgiving and it's almost time to go home and eat the leftovers for Christmas. Speaking of Christmas, have you heard all the kids on campus singing, "I' m getting nothing for Christmas, 'cause my grades have been nothing but bad?" This week is Christmas Spirit Week, and the spooks are really doing a good job . The Democrats almost put a damper on it though. Annie Franc was preparing to pass out I.O.U. slips, but the October checks finally arrived on Saturday. Hint to all married men: Don't be angry with your wife for serving you burnt toast for breakfast—it may have saved her life. Joan Christie, while practicing for the future, attempted to dig toast from a pop-up toaster with a knife. The result was sparks—big, bright, electrical sparks!! Thank heaven for plastic handles. Lew Natter is restricted from basketball games for trying to sell sodapop to the Wilkes players. How was he supposed to know they didn 't have any money with them. Upon being asked by his high school students, "Why are you collectnd l'I ing the papers?" Slim Ruppel said, "It may be cold some night, al need somthing to start a fire. " Trying to be helpful, a little girl offered to be an "armstrong heater". Like a good teacher, Slim kept her after school. Somebody spread it around that Don MacJuean snot an eleven-point buck. Of course, the rumor was a falsie. For the first time in their lives, Bill Ambrose and Ted Resnick saw venison with wings. They're still eating hamburger and reading "The Power of Positive Thinking." Last week, while Miss Hazen's class was doing some choral reading, Mr. Gehrig walked in and was greeted with, "Oh, I thought you were Santa Claus." "San ta" nearly fell through the floor. Who'd ever think that Miss Hazen still believes in Santa Claus ? Have you noticed how clean Bob Boyle and Jim Gustave have been lately ? Could it be because they've been lifting soap from the shower room at basketball practice ? Nothing like having that Ivory look!!! Len Kozick should be more careful at basketball practice. The team was weaving down the floor; Mr. Shelley was in the center shouting directions—splat—Shelley saw stars. Accidents do happen; and anyway, "Pooch" made up for it in the Wilkes game. He scored the two points that got us out of that 67-53 rut—and the crowd cheered on. BSTC can now be rated with some of our top universities, namely Bucknell and Penn State—DRY. We always were; it' s just that not everyone knew it! Next year's football season is going to be mighty cold unless you can afford an electric blanket. ( Bring your own outlet. ) Here's hoping Santa visits you and yours—-and ours. Merry Christmas to all and to all a good time. O Dress and Sport Clothes DRY CLEANIN G We Rent Formal Wear Have you ever wondered what the Library Staff does besides check books and collect fines ? The tasks of the nine girls working under Miss Keefer and Miss Reams are numerous as well as varied. Each girl has a particular j ob to perform, along with the general work to aid students in locating books and finding research material. Daily mail must be checked in and stamped and this is done by Pat Hartman and Joanne Specht. Pat, along with Jan Truscott , does much of the typing. This includes accessioning books, typing letters, and filling out cards. Another back-office worker is Marilyn Friedman. Her specialty is cutting and pasting pictures for the picture file and pasting book pockets. Jo Specht can also be found with her hands in the paste j ar when she mends torn books. The two new freshman girls, Margie Morson and Sophie Kish , spend most of their working hours with the students, where they can get better acquainted with the library and its system. Huskies Topple ( Continued from page 5) • scoring the first goal from the field and his play throughout the entire contest gave the fans visions of a great year in store for him. Len had eleven goals, from in and outside, and three fouls for a total of twenty-five pts. to take scoring honors for the night. Keith Weiser was also in the scoring department with five goals and ten fouls for twenty points to attest his eagle»ize ability from the outside. Clyde West, a stocky little guard was unstoppoble with an outside j ump shot as he led the Cheyney attack with nineteen points. Th Huskey Pups led by Jack and Bill Swlsher gave the early fans a bright look into the future as they defeated the Cheyney JayVees. In summing up the initial start of the courtmen, the rebound work of Evans, Schaeffcr, Gustave and Morson, the floor work of Weiser, Boyle and Robinson and the all around ability of Kozick should leave Coach Shelly little to be de- Once a week, each grade from third to sixth, from the training school, spends one period in the library so they may become better acquainted with the juvenile books. Fran Myers and Joan Koch help these youngsters check their books out. The pamphlet file is constantly subj ect to change and addition and Joa n Yohn, along with a f ew of the others, is kept busy keeping it up to date. j But the staff s work doesn't end here. The library must be straightened up each morning, the chairs pushed back after the students leave, and the books kept in alphabetical order. All this is ably supervised by Miss Keefer and Miss Reams who, aided by the gir ls, keep B.S.T.C. Library in smooth running order. Their job doesn't stop with supervision though . There are books to be ordered, supplies to replenish, letters to be written and questions of all types to be answered. Many other j obs done by the staff include sending Christmas cards to the faculty and setting up bulletin boards and exhibits. So you see, a librarian's only j ob is not saying, "You owe 6£," and "this book is due December 13." sired . They have the potential; let's give them the spirit .
