Mr. Ciardi's discourse contained his and other poets' views on the nature of poetry. Ha pointed out why poetry is written and the effects that it has upon the reader. A distinction was made between "reasons" and " causes" for composing a poem and also between what a poem "means" and what it "is". Mr. Ciardi read examples from several contemporary and romantic works to prove points that he was attempting to make, and his discussion was spiced with numerous puns and asides. After the program, refreshments prepared by the faculty wives were served in the lobby of the College Commons. The following morning Mr. Ciardi spoke before a combined assembly on Dante's Infern o, a work which he has rendered into what many authorities consider the finest English translation. Mr. Ciardi omitted most of the "scholar's" problems and attempted to fellow the various th emes of th e pl ay, comparing modern ideas with those of the classical writers. After the regular assembly program, a group of students and faculty remained to hear Mr. Ciardi read selections from his own poetry. Dr. Bahlke, Bob Gower and others who worked on planning the program, reported that they were pleased with the enthusiasm shown and the favorable comments offered by many who were in attendance. The Ciardi program was unprecedented at BSTC in that it was entirely initiated, planned, and supported by students and student groups. The following campus organizations contributed financial support and initial planning of student groups. The following campus organizations contributed: Community Government Association, Men Resident's Council, Day Men 's Organization, Day Women's Organization, Maroon and Gold, Kappa Delta Pi, Sigma Alpha Eta, and Phi Sigma Pi. Valuable assistance was offered by Dr. Andruss and several faculty members. March 4 Assembly Folksong Progr am Tuesday, March 4, the upperclassmen were invited to the freshman assembly in Carver Auditorium to heard Richard Dyer-Bennet, tenor and guitarist; render folksongs from all parts of the world. Born in England, but reared and educated in California , Mr. DyerBennet sings the songs of the ancestors of the English speaking inhabitants of the world. This is his twelfth coast-to-coast tour and he has chosen pieces from his repertoire of more than 600 folk and art songs, many of which have won particular praise in his New York concerts. He has sung more than fifteen full-dress solo concerts Jn New York in the past five years lat Town Hall and Carnegie Hall. While he was an undergraduate at the University of California, Richard Dyer-Bennet was divided between a career in professional soccer and the life of a concert singer, and for a while he thought he could combine them. His plans were abruptly changed when, in a game for the Olympic Club, an opponent hurled into him and broke his nose, Realizing 'that broken noses are no aid to good voice production, he reluctantly resigned from the sport and devoted himself to voice study. Since that time, Dyer-Bennet has been singing songs from many parts of the world ; songs of the growing pains of America, like "John Henry " which celebrates a great railroad man; comedy songs which might be called 18th century "double talk"; and love songs of all centuries, Maroon and (Sold Editor — Mary Galatha Assistant Editor — Mary Ann Thornton Business Manager — Leonard Perotl!

Henry Celebrates His 72nd Birth day ¦ Hello there Jacobins, Girondists, and Conservatives. Maybe we should call the column "The Old Philosophes" this week. Last Thursday 's assembly reminded us of the television (if you 'll excuse the nasty word) show "You Are There "— back to the days of the French Revolution and all that sort of j azz. One of our own philosophy students succinctly summed up the proceedings, when he said, "A lot of heat, but no light. " Now let's get in our little old satellites and orbit our way to Science Hall to see what the latest news r'rom outer space is. First person we met was Bob "Hi-Ho" Stish , who asked us if we knew what the men from the stratosphere were called. "Of course," he said , "everyone knows that they're called Stradt-a-men. " While we were in the old building we were reminded that the Maroon and Gold unintentionally forgot to ment ion , a few issues back, that the science curriculum has a Saturday class also — Quantitative Analysis. Are you satisfied now, Egli ? Science Hall is also the scene of Dave Snook's accident "so to speak." He knocked over one of Dr. Kuster's jar s "as it were." "But that as it may "— the j ar U1 U1VC. Is It "Squeal er " Or "Citizen "? • Will wondrous happenings never cease? Assembly on February 27 was certainly a surprising spectacle — we haven't seen the Little Red Schoolhouse so stirred in many a day. From dormancy to passion in one easy hour. Well, it was an enriching experience, at any rate. At least the student body didn't play their usual Open-CGA-meeting role. But the Awakening of the Dead was not entirely expected and shook up the troops a bit , including members of the panel. It's that people are, after all, people, and their reactions can't always be predicted. However, the results of the program arranged to discuss the good and weak points of a proposed jud icial code for an interim tribunal leave us with these though ts: Technicalities cannot be intelligently discussed until generalities are agreed upon. An objective panel, no matter how ideal, cannot be practical until these simple questions are hashed out. Do we cheat on this campus?— and , if we do cheat, do we want to con t inue d oin g so, or do we want to do something about it?— And if we want to do something, is a student tribunal the answer? Only after the answers to these questions are agreed upon by a majority of students can any progress be made toward the perfection of any judicial code. The excuse that most people who cheat do so because they must race against other cheaters on the curve system is lame, lame, lame indeed ! Is Mr. Smith , who embezzles money to keep up with the Joneses to be exonerated simply because Jones has been embezzling for years? Hardly ! We should think that those who contend that self-defense is the driving force would be the first to support a program designed to diminish the pressures created by . dishonesty . The emphasis concerning the entire tribunal proposal has been misplaced. A perpetual game of cops and robbers is not the objective. The purpose is not to lasso all the bad , nasty little critters into court for the Last Round-up — the more the better. Students have taken the whole idea as a personal affron t, a personal threat , a danger to be fo&gh t with all the fury of an enraged cat. No court is set up to punish the innocent. Nations, states, and towns have found courts necessary to prevent undesirable acts by punishing those who commit them and to protect the interests of the innocent who are affected by these acts. Such terms as squealer , informer", are unfortunate. They sound like the products of hysteria. Someone evidently has pushed the panic button. Although we're not absolutely certain that this judicial code, as it is written , will be a practical solution to academic dishonesty problems (no one can be), a few points arc fairl y clear to us: Dishonestly exists in our school — unchecked , in some cases, rampant, even organized cheating ! We cannot deny it, nor ignore it, nor sanction it , nor follow it and still keep our self-respect as adults, as citizens, as teachers. We can't believe that the majority of students cheat ( that might account for the fury, the panic). If they do, we don't think they arc happy about it. And if the offenders are in the minority, then the other students can't be happy about that either. The proposed code is an attempt at easing all this unhappiness.' Let's consider it in this light and not cloud the issues with emotionalism and prejudices.

Mr. Morrow, custodian of the Husky Lounge, w as born February 18, 1886 in Shamokin, Pennsylvania. He has been associated with BSTC since 1930. His first position on campus, that of j anitor of Carver Hall, began when Dr. Haas was president and Dr. Andruss was teaching in Noetling Hall. He then became custodian of the Snack Bar which has made a steady improvement since its early blacker days. Drafted during World War I, Henry served in the railroad service. He saw the Navy program initiated on Campus during World War II. Navy Hall and Centennial Gymnasium have changed from dreams to reality during his relationship with the college. Mr. Morrow has four children : two boys and two girls. He is the grandfather of six and great-grandfather of one. Lette rs to the Editor WHAT PRICE GLORY? Sometimes after the Christmas vacation a group of stout-hearted students began to work on a play which was going to be presented to the student body. These "above average" students worked many late hours rehearsing lines, making props, and figuring out proper lighting effects. These students were majoring in courses which did not aid them in the field of dramatics. In other words, they weren't professional dramatists. The play was presented to half of the student body, an excellent percentage. After having seen the play, many of the people in the audience consented that the dramatics club, under the leadership of Mrs. Smith, did a fine j ob. The cast and the people behind the scenes did a j ob which was worthy of praise — not destructive criticism. Why should these people work hard to try and please us when instead of being praised they are severely criticized. This is not my idea of encouragement — the type of criticism the dramatics club received can only lead to their discouragement. There are only a few people in our school who are aggressive and strong enough to spend many hours trying to fulfill a task that will benefit us. Should these people be discouraged ? What about the dormant associations of our school ? They do very little to benefit us. They are the ones who should receive the harsh criticism. The point is, don't demoralize the students and faculty who love Bloomsburg, bu t "get behind" the people who have ability but are unwilling to crawl out of their shell for fear of harsh criticism. So let us show the dramatics club ( and every other hard-working organization) that we appreciate their efforts with laudation instead mission applications Is March 31. of expostulation. — Bill Stevenson Each school offers six-week courses of particular interest to American graduates.

And Miss Mettler has found an additional expense living in Waller Hall — being charged overtime on the telephone. Ma always said, "It's not a shame to be poor but it's mighty unhandy ." And everytime we attempt to describe a certain girl on campus, we have trouble. It seems her hair changes colors so fast and of ten . Oh well, variety is the spice of life. Is it true that Mr. Sellers major ed in meatless meals in college ? Incidentally, Mr. Sellers, it was the "basketball" not the "foo tball" team which ate early the other night. And we think a certain prof would make a terrific traffic Dogberry . Is the administration fasting on dancing for Lent ? The students aren't — well not from choice anyway. We hope you saw Witness for the Prosecution at that expensive theatre commonly referred to as the "Bang-Bang ". Its surprising ending was almost as strange as Carl Janetka 's philosophy on women — sorry you can't read it here. One of our students was relating a dream (maybe we should say a nightmare). He attended a dance in the College Commons. It was a beautif ul April evening; the music sounded great. The patio doors were open and some'of the students sat on the adjoining porch taking in the beautiful spring air. But then his alarm went off and the "impossible" here at BSTC was more emphatic than ever. Janice Biddle is making a record — no, not a vocal. She stayed here two consecutive week-ends, and she's honestly finding out BSTC isn't quite as bad as some people believe. "Chad" Wetzel is thinking of taking Horace Greeley 's advice this summer, "Go West Young Man". Women sure make a man travel. Wendy Rundell is in the midst of a big venture — blackmail. We hope they catch the culprit, Wendy. And Bob Corrigan thinks someone told him the "Stroll" is a "Socialist" j itterbug. Attention Freshmen — and we mean the men. Your dance would have been much more successful if more than ten of you showed up. After all dancing isn't that fatiguing. Along with that week-end of the Freshmen Hop, boredom was at its maximum in the Husky Lounge the following night. This was obvious by the huge (considering the percentage of people that stayed) crowd which was subj ected to watching Bandstand that Saturday night. The Drum-Drum's are looking for a room to requisition to complete their plans for their biggest event this year. We hope some of our friends weren't caught in the raid on Marone's last Friday . Congratulations to Jim Garman and the rest of the wrestlers who made such a fine showing for the "Friendly College " at Lock Haven. Is P.S. still interested in Miss Benton? And is Bob Shalius dreaming that he's a night watchman making two trips through Waller Hall every night ? Keep sleeping Bob — you seem to be enjoying yourself. Fasting for Lent — Mary Francis Downey, unicolored hair (on you it looks good) ; Bill Norton, anything that isn't fattening; "Rebel" Davies , going to the beach ; Dr. Russell, blue book tests; The Librarians, on saying sn . Remember comr ad es, if you miss half the questions in a test, you 're still batting five hundred — and that's good in any league. Even Ted Williams isn't doing that well. And don't forget, you people who fear x-rays from television, to wear the particular article of clothing apparel to repel such danger. Lolly Ni ehoff t hink s she'll be ready for the Olympics when she's through with Phys. Ed. from Miss Wray. And what room on second floor of Waller Hall was temporarily quarantined last week ? Prepare yourself people; one of our former students, Jim Nich ols, is planning a visit on March 14. Dale Biever's wish — to get his name in the paper, is now f ulfilled. Pinning seems to be popular these past few weeks. Ed Br ayno ck and Gerald Dunmoyer j oined the ranks of the inevitable. Congratulations! The efforts to bring Ciardi here on campus were successful, th a nk s to Hargraves and Rhodes for their remarks in Assembly. And a vote for the Tribunal is a vote against cheating — or, are you worried ? We hope you don't doubt our "veracity ", and remember "The wages — MARILYN and DON of sin is death." So long for now. THE Commute rs . . LIBRARY LINES by Patsy Fetterolf The college library has recently acquired an outstanding list of books which fall under the heading of contemporary fiction. Among them are such notables as Juan Ramon Jimenez's Platoro and I, now translated by. Eloise Roach thirty years after its original publication in Spanish. One of the bestloved books of the Spanish-speaking world, it is composed of 138 prose poems of life and death in a small Spanish town. The reader is given this intimate glimpse of Spanish life through the eyes of the author as he talks to his "silvergrey donkey Platero. " Time has listed it among the year 's best. Thomas B. Costain, author of the The SUvor Chalice and the recent two-volume best-seller The Tontine, has written a new novel entitled Below the Salt . Those with a taste for historical fiction will enjoy reading about the England of 700 years ago. Irving Stone's Lust for Life, the biography of Van Gogh which won loud acclaim as a motion picture, is now available to BSTC students. And Ernest Hemingway's In Our Time is also a now addition to the library shelves. Other novels worthy of mention are Falroaks by Frank Yerby ; A. M , Maughan 's Harry of Monmouth . Hear Ye! Hear Ye! The Interim Commuters are now in session. First on the agenda is a lesson on getting out of a parking space without taking the emergency brake off — have ten unsuspecting freshmen push you. No kiddi n g, someone really tried it. Many thanks to Vernon Sinn who suggested we take off the brake before we try moving. Second is the report of the annual Firemen's Ball of BSTC held at the Lightstreet Firehall, on February 25 at 7:30 p.m. The coeds of BSTC want to congratulate Mousie upon reaching 21 — officially. Who are you going to leave the car to, Mouse ? ? We've had a request to present a question for a student who wasn't called upon at last week's meeting of Congress. This student wanted to know if informers will be paid the present college wages; and if so, where does one apply for a position oo Grap plers Win at Lycoming College The Husky invasion of Lycoming College on Saturday, February 15, spelled doom for the battling Warriors as they fell prey to a touch squad of Bloomsburg grapplers who were determined in their quest for four consecutive victories. Never trailing their opponents during the entire meet, the Huskies came through with a convincing 21-11 win, their fifth of the campaign, against two setbacks. The Warriors failed to topple three of Coach Houk's matmen from the undefeated ranks. Jimmy Garman, Dick Rimple, and Bobby Rohm continued to display their mastery in the 123, 130. and 167 lb. divisions. Back to back pins got things off to a magnificent start for the Huskies, giving them a 10-0 advantage at the outset. Jimmy Garman led all the way before pinning Jack Fortin in the 123 lb. division. Then his versatile teammate, Dick Rimple, repeated the process by downing Lycoming 's 130-lb. contender, Don Flick , in the third period in one of the outstanding matches of the evening. Pound for pound probably the best wrestler on the Warrior squad , Harry Romig, decisioned Bill Stevenson, 6-0, in the 137 lb. class. Mustering up some terrific stamina in the remaining seconds of the third period, Walt Fake decisioned Dave James, 11-7, in the 147 lb. class. They were tied going into the final period before Walt scored the win that hiked the Husky tally to 13-3. George O'Connell went down to defeat to a 157-lb. bruiser, Dick Steele, 3-2. Bobby Rohm, the third undefeated man on the squad, h eld true to his enviable record by the decisioning of Ed Receski, 4-3, in the 167 lb. class. The third Husky pin was registered by Bob Asby over Jack Kain , his former high school teammate, in the 177 lb. class. Outweighing Jack Chidester by nearly fifty pounds, John Joe of Lycoming pinned him. in the unlimited class, making the final score 21-11 in favor of the Huskies.

Stan lost out in his first match on Friday night but came back into the consolation matches to defeat Shippensburg 's unlimited entry Stifole, 4-1, and East Stroudsburg 's heavyweight grappler Gall, 4-2, to secure the third place for BSTC. Bloomsburg's other two wrestlers to place were Dick Rimple and Andy Litavec . Rimple drew a bye in the first round an then faced Lock Haven's 130 lb. Champion, Galluci, who decisioned Dick, 7-3. Rimple, wrestling with a bruised knee, was unable to garner a victory in the consolation matches as he lost two in a row. Bloomsburg's final point getter was Andy Litavec. Having drawn a bye in the first round , he later lost out to Bowser from Shippensburg and then to Abrahams of Lock Haven. The lineup for the Huskies at the meet was Litavec 115, Garman 123, Rimple 130, Stevenson 137, Fake 147, Rohm 157, Asby 167, Chidester 177, and Elinsky, unlimited.

The Millersville squad put on a sparkling display of ball handling and shooting in their warm-up drills and continued their mastery of the court from the opening whistle. The Huskies were never in the game as they fell 11 points behind early in the contest, and never managed to narrow the gap.

Cagers Post Nint h Win at Lycoming The BSTC Huskies rolled to their ninth victory of the campaign by virtue of a 79-71 triumph over the Warriors from Lycoming College in Centennial Gym. It was sweet revenge for the Bloomsburg cagers as they evened the score for the game at Lycoming earlier in the season. Norman Shutovich got the BSTC Huskies off on the right foot in the first half as he scored 10 points to keep them in what was a nip and tuck game. The local forces commanded a one point, 35-34, lead at the halfway mark. In the second half , Norm Shutovich fouled out , but not before he had contributed 17 points to the cause. Bill Swisher then took the scoring reins as he dumped in 15 points in the last 20 minutes. Jim Gustave and Stan Covington also came to life late in the second half. Bill Swisher was high point man for the evening as he ripped the cords for 21 markers. Able assistance to the cause was rendered by Jim Gustave and Norm Shutovich as they scored 18 and 17 tallies respectively. Boyd and Miorelli led the losing Warriors with 16 points apiece. Huskies Defeat Mansfield Quint On Saturday, February 22, the BSTC Huskies journeyed to Mansfield where they met the Mountaineers and defeated them by a 76-67 score. It was the second setback suffered by the Mountaineers via the hands of the BSTC cagers. Bloomsburg, paced by the dazzling shooting of Jim Gustave, took a 36-32 halftime advantage. However, in the second half the Mountaineers were not to be denied a chance at victory when they began to push the Huskies as was evidenced by their taking control of the game in several instances. When it seemed as though the Mountaineers might gain revenge on BSTC, Bill Swisher came to life and scored eleven points in the final three minutes of play to ice the contest for Bloomsburg. Jim Gustave continued his basketball mastery as he led the Huskies to their eighth victory with 2i3 points. Bob Boyle and Bill Swisher each threw in 17 points for the winners. Pete Zyga led the Mountaineers with 21 while Felt and Martini followed with 14 and 12 points respectively. For Elementary Students Only Wood Players Give For Shakes peare SitudentsiOhl y "The Chalk Garden " . The Peggy Wood Players have recognized the need for a new* and simplified concept of theatrical production which would eliminate the necessity for expensive scenery, but retain the meaning and entertainment value of the play. The college community saw tnis concept last night in the delightful play The Chalk Garden. The play was sponsored by Miss Peggy Wood, one of the foremost actresses in the American theatre. Her talents vary from musical comedy to Shakespeare. Many students are familiar with Miss Wood through the television series, "Mama". The success of all plays is dependent on the actors. Each member of the cast has been specially chosen by Miss Wood and the directors. Their years of theatrical experience combine to form an integrated and versatile organization. Last, but the most important, was Dick Moore, director. Mr. Moore has worked in every medium of entertainment for the last twenty years. He has been with the Players for the last four years. He shares the directional duties with Stratton Walling, a veteran of fifteen years on the professional stage, both as actor and director. The play was attended by a large number of college students, faculty and townspeople. > > " ' u * i- " "¦ l - «f ¦. * & r-6rnq is suc h Slueei s& m^w * » Thoughts for the Day Ring the bells of the future with the ropes of the past There are no benches on the road to success.

Va. (I.P.)— Following President Eisenhower's warning that America must increase production of scientists and engineers, Bethany College has been notified that its graduates will be admitted to the engineering graduate school of Columbia University without question . In a message to Dr. Perry E. Gresham, president of Bethany, Dr. Frank H. Lee of Columbia outlined a "4-2 Combined Plan" to supplement the "3-2 Plan" already in ef- ' feet between the two institutions. Under the new plan, any graduate of Bethany is guaranteed immediate admission to the Columbia graduate school of engineering. The student will then receive the engineering degree on the Master's level within two years. Heretofore, students could spend three years at Bethany and two at Columbia and be granduated with both Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees. This 3-2 Plan will be continued , but under the new plan, students will be enabled to do advanced work immediately upon entering Columbia. In effect, the new plan cuts off one year of the time spent preparing to do advanced work. Dr. Gresham said here that Bethany and Columbia will make up the difference by intensifying the course requirements in the science fields such as physics, chemistry, biology, mat hema tics, and geology. Dr. Lee, Chairman of the Combined Plan committee at Columbia, I said the action was taken following a caucus of the faculty there and that it "expresses the satisf action of our faculty at the results being obtained under the 3-2 arrangemen." He said that Bethany would be supplied with a guide outlining required entrance subj ects and expected achievement levels for the several engineering departmnets at Columbia.
