Phi Sigma Pi Sponsors Annual
Battle of Classes February 13
Campbell Gives
Two Far East
Film Lectures

Yesterday, February 6th, the
students here viewed a film of Japan presented by Dr. William G.
Campbell.
Dr. Campbell is an eminent educator who, for fifteen years, was
Director of Teacher Education at
the University of Southern California and for three years, assistant to the president of that University. He has also held prominent
positions at the University of
Texas, the University of Panama,
and with the United States Government in Latin America. Besides being a lecturer of international repute, Dr. Campbell is also an author
of several books. He has recently
spoken on several of America 's
largest Forums and was this year
chosen by Columbia University for
two lectures. Previous to his appearance at Bloomsburg, he lectured before the Philadelphia Geographic Society and will continue
his tour, his next lecture to be one
before the Chicago Geographic Society.
The film was designed to help the
students better understand the
Japanese way of life, and their current problem of overpopulation. It
gave students a view of the important cities and industry developing there, and also showed the effect of World War II on the country.
The Gamma Beta Chapter of
Kappa Delta Pi and Bloomsburg 's
American Association of University
Women sponsored an open assembly In the evening, during which
Dr. Campbell presented a film concerning Indo-China. All three
states of the country were covered ,
and the film included the Royal
Dancers of Laos, the blood sacrifices of the savage Moi, and many
other authentic topics.
Following the evening perform ance, a tea was given in the Day
Women's lounge for Dr. Campbell
and the audience.

This year's Bat tle of th e Classes
will be held February 13 in Carver
Auditorium. The annual panel quiz,
sponsored by Phi Sigma Pi fraternity, is a test of recall on current
events as reported in Time magazine from July to December 1957.
The panel consists of two representatives from each class. A moderator and a timekeeper preside.
The moderator submits to the
panel questions which were prepared by the members of Phi Sigma
Pi. A question is addressed to one
of the upperclass teams, if one of
them answers correctly, his team
secures a point. However, if the
answer is incorrect, the question is
addressed to the lower classes, and
they receive the opportunity to answer the question. This continues
until the question is answered or
until the timekeeper signals the end
of the round.
Representatives from the respective classes are: seniors : Nancy
Klotz and Charles Jessup; juniors:
Mary Ann Thornton and Donald
Ker; sophomores : Linda Bartlow
and John Longo; freshmen: Barbara Wainwright and Jim Simons.
Dean John Hoch will be moderator, assisted by Mr. Shelly as timekeeper. The faculty ju dges will be
Mr, George, Mr. Rabb, and Dr.
Serff.

Enrollment Figures
High for Semester

The office of the Dean of Instruction announced that the enrollment

attend Bloomsburg was 1189 during the firs t semester this year.
At the mid-year commencement
exercises, degrees were received by

Summer and Smoke - Little Fire
The purpose of any newspaper is to keep the reader informed. The
Maroon and Gold is no differen t from any other newspaper, but we
are also an instrument which influences (slightl y or greatly) the 1160
students now enrolled. For a school of this size, campus organizations
should have much more cooperation. An example of the appalling lack
of cooperation with these groups concerns the Dramatics Club.
Last weekend Tennessee Williams' play Summer and Smoke, was
presented in Carver Auditorium. Where were the 1160 students? A pproximately three hundred were in attendance each ni ght. No wonder
the production was not the success it should have been ) An audience
that size is not enough incentive for the cast members of the production.
Why should they make a supreme effort for such little recognition?
Although there was some adverse criticism , there were many bri ght
spots in the play. The most noticeable was the appearance of Mary
Frances Downey on stage. She was not acting the part , she gave the
impression of living it. Cath y Neos portrayed the minister's demented
wife very well, althoug h her makeup did not age her sufficientl y.
Deanna Morgan was capable of handling the lead but at times the
supporting actors , who did not seem to regard their parts as essential ,
shifted to her the entire responsibility of holding the audience , and the
play began t0 drag. In the beginning of the play Deanna was idea l for
the part of the minister's daugh ter , but at the end the transformation of
her character and appearance was not as complete as Tennessee Williams intended Alma's to be. Young Dr. John's acting (Wayne Gavitt)
fluctuated throughout the drama. At times he was excellent and at
other times his voice and facial expressions did not change when moving from a doctor-patient relationship to a role in a love scene.
Everyone realizes that the Major Production had many obstacles to
overcome — the illness of the original lead, a long Christmas vacation ,
and lack of sufficient funds. Mrs. Smith deserves commendations for
the work she was required to do with people whose talents she was unfamiliar with, and also for attempting the complicated work of such a
famous , though often radical , playwright.
This program is supposed to be one of the largest social events of the
year. It is run entirely by students and a faculty adviser , and it's hard
to understand why members of BSTC's college community will not
support their friends. Maybe a little enthusiasm on the part of YOU .
faculty and students , would have resulted in a better performance.

Olympian Evidence of Literary Talent
YOU are BSTC , YOU are its activities, its achievements and its
progress. What you contribute to its social development is reflected in
our assemblies, our get-togethers in the Husk y Lounge and the news
carried in the Maroon and Gold . What you contribute culturall y is
reflected in our honorary fraternities , our clubs and our literary magazine the Olympian.
Your college newspaper is a record of day to day happenings on our
campus, the yearbook similari ly is a long-range record of your college
experiences; and the Olympian is a record of the campus talent , initiative and interest.
You college students are selective as well as selected people. You all
have more ability than the average "man on the street" or you wouldn't
be here. You all have talent of one kind or another , some for drawing,
some for writing, some for speaking, and some for appreciating.
Your Olympian magazine uses all these talents and encourages creativeness ; then is sold to you so you mi ght become aware of and eijjoy
them. This year's Olympian proves to be one of the most successful
combinations of that talent up to date.
The stones in the magaxine range in interest and sty le. MARIE
STANELL brings you a story awaringly told about juvenile delinquency as seen through the eyes of a newspaper man who goes out to get
the truth , the "teen-age" side of the story. GEORGE OPILLA brings
the terrible waste of war to life in "Dear Johanna ". DALE BIEVER
paints a true-to-life scene of the Hungarian border and the price paid
by those who escaped across it to freedom. JIM GERRITY shifts the
mood to a candid and amusing story of campus life and a double date
that started irom "long porch".
In our present-day tension between Communism and Capitalism
MARY GALATHA brings us a timel y review of George Orwell's Animal Farm where "some are more equal than others". SUZI LOUGHERY gives us the patheticall y rcalj stic "Traged y in Blue "—a story of a
little girl who wants so much to be a part of her school and do the things
her classmates do. You will see the damage that gossip and tonguewagging can do to someone who has faith in "Th e Letter'4 by GUS
SPENTZAS. "Journey's End" is a love story by DOROTHY ANDRYSICK who effectively brings her narrative to a powerfu l ending.
LU NATTER , BOB GOWER , a n d CHARLE S NYE , among many
others bring you poetry that certainl y shows promise and talent.
CAROL GREENE brings the lighter side of campus life to you with
her "Bloomsburg's Date Line", a take-off from Good Housekeeping 's
column for which she writes, dealing with fads and ideas that arc
prominent at our college. There arc many more stones and articles
that are equally interesting and show talent.
The art-work too is outstanding and original , thanks to PAT FETTEROLF and BARBY HOCKENBERRY.
Perhaps more important than the contents itself is the enthusiasm
that was shown b y no many of you in writing and contributing in some
way to the magazine, So many of you who are not represented in the
magazine itself this year have shown your ability and good jud gment in
other ways — some have shown it in other issues, and some of you
WILL show it through your literary and critical ability to enjoy, appreciate and understand the talent ot your fellow-students.
When you buy this magazine and begin reading it — you will look
at the students around you and say — he did it — she did it — I did it
— and YOU will ind eed be Bloomsburg.

This semester BSTC welcomes
Mrs. Charlotte A. McKechnie to
our English Department to help alleviate the burden of an increased
enrollment.
Mrs. McKechnie received her
Bachelor of Science degree in Education at Bloomsburg State Teachers College and did graduate work
at Bucknell University. She has
been in the teaching field for fifteen
years in both private and public
schools. Many Berwick area school
students remember Mrs. McKechnie as instructor in both English
and Latin.
Mr. McKechnie is the District
Superintendent of the Berwick
Area School System.
The McKechnies have a son enrolled at Gettysburg College.

NEWS TOR Y OF THE WE EK
(BSTCP ) It happen ed the week of
finals. It was a cold snowy morning when a car containing five
BSTC students from Shamokin
stalled in a snow-drift. Eager to get
to school in time for Dr. Russell's
eigh t o'clock final they decided to
walk the remaining 18 miles. About
two miles outside of Catawissa
they sank exhausted into the snow.
Luckily, Mrs. Beeman was riding
by on her St. Bernard in search of
Vivien Fuch's polar expedition. She
managed to revive them with the
little wooden cask around her dog's
neck which she had thoughtfully
provided in case of emergency. She
then tore down a nearby picket
fence and strapped the boards to
the students' feet. Mrs. Beeman
then climbed back on her dog, the
five students grasped the dog's
tail and skied triumphantly into
Bloomsburg. Quick thinking Olive !
Well, that's the end of our tail...

Hello there buddies, friends, and faculty. Here we are — the big two
(295 and 302 lbs. respectively). Have trouble getting back ? Well, even
if you did it was worth it . . . wasn't it? Now you can fulfill that promise you made before you left for semester break ... never will I be late
for any of my five eights, nor will I cut any of my four three 's ... promises, promises, all the time promises.
Yo u say you 're a new January freshman and you thought you saw a
flying saucer ? It was j ust the wind taking Miss Mettler 's hat. And may
we have the attention of English majors. Switch your major because one
of our faculty recommends dropping that subject from the high school
curriculum. Must be interested in science and math. Worst thing about
it he 's not even a Republican.
You say Tom Quigley's initial stage appearance in Bloomsburg was
successful (don 't worry, we'll never rat where). And the dance team of
the week is Wendy Rundel and Emma Kovalevich ... they do a mean

M arie "Elsa Maxwell" Walsh was hostess to the Scranton-WilkesBarre crowd over semesters. Highligh t of the evening was Cap Parry
doing the "stroll" . And have you noticed Harold Giacomini's new hairdo... he says it's a crew cut (the crew must have bailed out) .
And the BSTC co-eds wish Hess' wasn't off limits, because certain
guys are raving about Emma (Miss style of 1925) who seems to be
Bloomsburg's answer to gay Paree fashion salons ... rusty rhinestones
and all. Any of you wondering if Mr. Stradtman will have his Science in
Modern Civilization students make miniature sputniks ? Incidentally,
this course has a field trip to the moon.
Quotes of the week:
"One of our student teacher's spelled fahrenhiet with an "f" and anyone with any sense knows it's spelled with a "ph"—business teacher.
"Dr. Martin, do you mind if we eat lunch this semester?" Joan Stablum. "No, if it doesn't take you too long."
"I wish Carrie Nation were alive," said a temperance student while
passing Hess'.
"Let 's get this cotton pickin ' cow train moving, " said Rebel as he
tried to get through the congested lounge doorway.
"I never cry when people get killed in the movies, only animals,"
Pe&ev Davies.
We wish to pause momentarily to welcome all returning student
teachers and offer best wishes to those seniors who are now embarking
on their new teaching assignments. Good luck, cheerio, and all that sort
of rot, you know. Nancy Hughes almost broke the four minute mile record when she raced from the Grille to beat the tower clock .
You say your name is Jim McCarthy and you overhead an informative
conversation about Emily in the Grille ... tell it Charley ... tell it. Dick
Stabler helped Ellen Drumtra leading the chorus of "Happy Birthday "
for Jo Bechtel. Carol Clark carried the soprano while Linda Ruggieri
sang bass.
And have you noticed how well -Don and Alice Ker ( brother and sister,
not man and wife , dance together. You would if you weren't a Suitcase
Sue. We may not have Wednesday night dances, but we have them on
the week-ends. Furthermore, as we predicted the Book Store is selling
books this semester ... lines are longer, prices higher, and books changed
again.
Rumors around campus: ( yours not ours)
Dr. Russell will be a contestant on the "$64 ,000 Question. " Irm a is
planning on leaving the Grille. Bob Machamer thinks he won't have to

Wood Catering Service will raise student employees wages (want to

Ginny Hardy and Betty Jane Gregory are still laughing about Don't
Go Near The Water ( knock it off , it wasn't that funny) . And don't you
think "Outside Readings" ought to be a course itself. Ann Sprowls
shouldn't let her hair grow; Kathy Durkin should. And please Jack
Powell take the glasses off ... we all know who you are. Good luck business students... we hear you "Finally " got a term paper to do. Will
somebody please feed Roongo before Walt Disney makes a movie about
him ?

BSTC's "tunnel of love" is now being used. If you don't trip on the
tile you may make it to the dining hall. Inciden tally, the door leading
to the new library is an interesting tour.
You say your name is Matthew Mensch and you were shot in class
with a pop gun, and the word for the semester is Serendipity. And your
name is Kathy Neos and you love to dance without shoes, and you sometimes do. And a certain Lit. instructor is unaware that both Matchulat
girls are in his class. And the new cigarette machines in the Husky
Lounge do not take Canadian coins either.., Sonj a Bedinsky knows ...
she was second to use them. Yours truly were first.
We hope you're going to do what we are planning... do all our work
on time, go to Hess' only once (instead of the usual four times) a week,
do assignments in advance ... all for the express purpose of making sure
we won't have any work to do when John Ciardi is on campus. All these
sacrifices because we know how good he is.
You say your name is Wally Hutz and you 're not ¦worried about handling your wife, when you get one, since you have the tedious task of trying to please all the waitresses working in the College Commons. Wally
says, "It just takes tact and diplomacy." And since Lu Natter is student
teaching and not wiping tables in the lounge our cleaning bills are much
lower. And 'you may not agree, but we think Dr. DeVoe looks like
Napoleon with his arm in a sling. And what we like most about Mrs.
Smith is her congeniality.
have never met Forsythia because
for the past three years she has
been living on the Left Bank in
Paris where she has been writing a
novel. She has finished her novel
and that's why she's here. Because
she wants to get her novel published. She has entitled it "Bonjo ur ,
tournoure." It's all about this
young girl falling in love with three
married men and they all get divorces and then she can't decide which
one to marry and she commits suicide and so do they. It is very bad.
Well anyway, Forsythia said that
when she saw me that even a Paris
cleaning woman doesn't look as outof-date as I do. She said I should
buy an entire now wardrobe and
she; would pick it out since she'd
lived in Paris for three years and
should certainly know what was
stylish. That's why we went shopping — at the Wac-Wave Surplus
Store because I have a charge accountv.here.
One of the dresses Forsythia advised me to buy is a "sack dress."
You must have seen pictures of

1 I'm beginning to wonder if all the scoring is actually good for the game.
I How long do you think people would maintain interest in baseball if all
the games ended 25-33, and every guy hit three or four home runs ?
That' s what it amounts to in the NBA now. To me, it's ridiculous to score
130 points in a game and get beat by 10, which is what happened to Syracuse this year. The shooting is phenomenal, and all the players are becoming better shooters each year. But they trade baskets so fast that
in watching it your head goes back and forth like in a tennis match. It
takes all the challenge out of coaching, takes the smartness out of the
game, and furthermore, the teams don't have time to work on defensive
weaknesses any more.
There appears to be increased college attendance all over the country
thi s y ear , yet the scores as a whole are not as high. More teams are
working a bit more for the good shot. If high scoring means bigger
crowds, then it stands logically that the college crowds should be falling
off. I wish there were some way to put more defense in the game. The
coaches are handicapped by the twenty-four second rule and ban of the
zone defense. Different styles of play make for more interesting competition. Merely, by stressing basic defensive fundamentals however, I think
the scores could be reduced by ten or fifteen points. You see so little
[ switching
any more, I wonder if there is a rule against it.
I'm convinced the high scores are hurting the game. It's nothing more
than a rat race. I've watched games on TV with friends and found they
didn 't want to watch until the last five minutes, because they decided
that was the only time that all the scoring meant anything.
Instead of lower scores in the future, Ed Gottliev, Warriors owner,
believes the day is not too distant when the pros will be scoring 200
points because they are becoming better marksmen every day. "It 's wh at
the fans want," he says. In reply to Mr. Gottliev, Ken Loeffler, for mer
LaSalle and Texas A & M coach, says, "If that's so, why not three points
for a field goal and have a 300 point game."

Gustave on Top
In STC Scoring

Three Bloomsburg State Teachers College cagers are in the top
seven of the conference scorers
with "Jumping Jim" Gustave, the
high scorer from Plains, leading the
pack at the midway point. Gustave,
the senior forw ard for the Huskies,
holds a one point advantage over
Joe DeLise of Indiana. Gustave has
101 in five games on 37 fiel d goals
and 27 fouls, while DeLise has hit
for 100 points on 37 field goals and
26 fouls.
Bill Swisher, the former Bloomsburg High School eager, is third in
the conference individual race, with
84 points in five conference games.
Swisher has hit on 37 field goals,
but only 13 free throws. The third
Husky in the top ten is John Schaeffer, the surprise point producer for
the Shellymen this season. Schaeffer , is ranked seventh with 68 conference points in five games, with
25 field goals and 18 fouls.
Charles German, East Stroudsburg, is the high average scorer
with 28.5 in two conference games
with Rodger Hotz, California, close
behind with 27.5 points in two contests. Tom Allen, Cheyney, has an
average of 26.5 points in two conference games, scoring 36 points
against East Stroudsburg for the
season's second high performance.
Bishop of Millersville scored 42
against Bloomsburg for the season 's
high . In the same contest German
tallied 33 points with 19 free throws
for third season's high .

Husky Wrestlers
Suffer First Loss

Coach Russell Houk's wrestlers
met the Marauders of Millersville
Saturday, January 18, and went
down to a 15-11 defeat. It was the
first loss of the season for BSTC,
following an opening match trium ph over Shippensburg.
The match could have gone either
way. The 123 pound and 167 pound
bouts were both decided by one
point, each in favor of Millersville.
Dick Dapra, leading most of the
way, lost a disputed near-fall decision to Fred Folle, 5-4. Bob Asby,
with a 2-1 lead going into the third
period, suffered a reverse that cost
him the bout, 3-2.
Jimmy Garman continued his
winning ways with a handy 3-1 decision over Webb. Dick Rimple, 137
pounder, was the Husky standout
as he scored the only pin of the
night over previously unbeaten Don
Corbin. The Huskies' other three
points came when Bobby Rohm decisioned Matt Farley, 4-0, in the 157
1b. class.
Freshman Walter Fake and Paul
Withers looked good in losing to
Micio and Baker, two of Millersville's experienced grapplers. The
Marauders also took the 177 pound
bout, as Price decisioned Chidester,
8-3.

Milton YMCA Loses
Thriller to Pups

The Bloomsburg junior varsity
live won an overtime thriller from*
the Milton YMCA by a 76-74 margin. Williamsport's Bill Conrad
dumped in the winning shot with
only three seconds left in the game.
The Pups had a comfortable 4330 margin at halftime but were unable to hold that lead when Milton 's
big guns, Evans and Sorrino began
to hit from all corners. With the
Huskies leading 68-66 with about
20 seconds left the visitors elected
to gamble on the last shot and made
it , typing the score at 68-68.
In the overtime period both teams
had battled to even terms until the
final three seconds when Conrad
dropped in his setshot .

With the nine seconds snowing on

that ju st about turned the tide tne

the tuii-press Husky cteiense, ana

tne gun sounded, and then leil out.
In tne mad conrusion whicn prevailed as the game ended, no one
on the tioor heard the buzzer, and
a Mansfield player tipped in the rebound. An orticial indicated, a goal,
but a check with the time-keeper
revealed the game had ended wim
Firestone's iutile shot. This brought
a somewhat forcerul protest trom
the Manstield bench, headed by
Coach Bill Gibson, but the omciais
walked oif the lloor before any
maj or controversy started.
It was a hard fought contest
throughout the first JiaJf which
found Mansfield on the heavy end

the lead changed hands more times
than a pair or dice. It was tied at
42, 44, 51. and 58 betore the Huskies went on a spree and pulled

game, Schaeffer fouled out alter a

a 69-64 edge.
During the next two minutes the
contest was tied at 75 and 77, before Zyga put the visitors ahead,
81-78, with two minutes to go. John
Mascioli made it 81-80, and Gustave
with a jump shot gave the Huskies
the advantage. Fifty-five seconds
showed on the clock when Felt, a
demon all night with one hand push
shots from outside, stepped t o the
foul line and cooly dropped in a
pair of free throws to push the
Mountaineers in the front and set
the stage for the crushing blow by
"Gentleman Jim."
Schaeffer was the top pointman
for Bloomsburg, registering 19
points before fouling out. Both Gustave and Swisher, leading Husky
scorers, found the zone defense a
handicap, and hit for only 14 each.
Boyle experiencing his best night
this season, also added 14 and was
tremendous on rebounding and
playmaking. Felt lead the Mountaineers with a brilliant performance of 25 points.

Bloomsburg vs. Indiana

The Husky matmen, who have
looked very impressive so far this
season, will be facing a group of
boys from Indiana Saturday night
in what should prove to be a good
test for our grapplers.
Indiana, as far as we know, always provides plenty of competition, and will give the Huskies a
good run for their money. Information is lacking about their record,
their schedule and the names of the
boys on the squad. However, w e do
know that Einsel will be wrestling
for them eith er in t h e 157 or 167
pound class. Einsel was a state
champion while in high school and
has continued to improve each year.
Last year he beat Bobby Rohm in
the state-tournament, so that gives
some indication of his potential. Also wrestling for Indiana will be
Hoch in the 137 1b. class. We know
from past experiences that he always gives a good account of himself. He defeated Rimple in an exciting match in last year 's encounter.
The Huskies have a match with
East Stroudsburg on Wednesday
evening here in Centennial Gym before travelling to Indiana on Saturday. Bloomsburg appears strong
once again with state champion ,
Jim Garmen heading the list of a
fine squad of wrestlers. Dick Rimple seems to get better every time
we see him and Bobby Rohm can
always be cou nted on for a fine
showing. Freshman, Bill Stephenson, although he has had some hard
luck in his previous matches, has
looked good even in defeat.
Coach Houk has done a wonderful j ob with the team and I think
the students should show their appreciation by getting out to these
matches to eheer the boys on to
victory.

First Class Off icers of the Class of 1961

January 28. a film was presented
during freshman assembly showing
the activities of a postal system.
New, improved methods of sorting and transporting mail were
contrasted with procedures used in
out-dated systems.
The film pointed out that in many
areas the mailman is able to carry
only thirty-five pounds of mail, and
parcel post must be delivered separately. In these same areas, it was
stated , the postman ean deliver
five-hundred pounds of mail plus
parcel post by employing a motor

but in the long run it would be reduced, according to the commentary.
After the film was presented.
Postmaster Creasy of Bloomsburg

the local office and asked if there
were any questions or complaints.
Since there were neither the assembly was adjourned.
