Elimination of
DepL Heads fr om
Council Pro posed

A new amendment has been pro posed which is intended to reduce
the number of faculty members on
College Council. At present, according to the Constitution of the Community Government Association as
stated in Article VI, Section 4, Paragraph F, on page 38 of the Pilot,
the College Council shall consist of
the following members in addition
to the student members: The Dean
of Instr u ction , the Deans of Men,
The Deans of Women, and the Directors of Bus iness , Elementary,
Secondary, and Special Education.
The "new amendment, which has
been submitted to and passed by
College Council and approved by
the Administration , would delete
the names of the Directors of Business, Elementary, Secondary, and
Special Education, leaving only the
Dean of Instruction <and the Deans
of Men and the Deans of Women as
the faculty representation on the
Council. This proposed amendment
must now be presented to the student body for approval or disapproval in the form of a referendum , to be held Thursday, February 26th.
Earlier this year, an amendment
was proposed which would have dismissed all but three of the faculty
members of Council — the Dean of
Instruction, the Dean of Men and
the Dean of Women. This proposal
was passed by Council and approved
by the administration , but on November 18, 1958, was defeated by
the student body in a referendum.

One of eight candidates will be crowned Coed of the Year at the
Freshman Hop this Friday evening, February 27. Students at Bloomsburg will be given an opportunity to vote for their choice on Thursday,
February 26th. Their selection is based upon such criteria as the extent

made available to the college for
schol ar ship purposes. This federal
allocation is to cover a period ending July 1, 1959. Moreover, when
supplemented by funds raised by
the college itself , a total of $8,719
will be reserved for this purpose.
Since Pennsylvania Sta te Teachers Colleges are not legally authorized to borrow money without
St at e Legi slation , it will be necessary for the college to raise approximately $1,000 before the fund
can be exaugurated. This amount
will be dependent upon donations
from the general Alumni Association or from student funds.
Special consideration for these
loans will be given to students of
superior ability and who have a desire to teach in public schools.
While the maximum amount loaned
to any of these students in one

the public schools, the loan will be
reduced at the rate of 10% a year
for a period of not more than five
years. In other words, one half of
the loan need not be repaid if the
student teaches five years during
the first eleven years following
graduation, and if he pays the regular rate of interest.
Plans for the administration of
these scholarships are still in the
formation stage, and a definite announcement of policy will be made
at a later date. The faculty committee on scholarships of which Dr.
Kimber Custer is chairman, will develop the local policy for the college, and will review all student applications.

'59 Class Memorial
Aids Lecture Fund
Through generous gifts of Mrs.
Verna Jones, the Class of 1959, and
the Community Government Association , an Endowment Fund for
cultural enrichment has grown to
$6704. This fund is designed to
bring to the BSTC campus renowned lecturers in the fields of
science, education , world affairs,
literature, philosophy, music and
the fine arts.
The fund was initiated by a gift
of $1500 by Mrs. Verna Jones, of
Millville, New Jersey, who donated
the sum in memory of her husband ,
Dan Jones, Class of 1936. From this
amount , interest will be drawn to
supplement grants for speakers included in the Community Activities
Budget.
The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania recently rebated $4304 to The
Community Government Association to cover the cost of furniture
purchased by the Council several
years ago. At that time, the furniture was considered unnecessary by
state rulings, but this view was
later reversed and the purchase
was sanctioned. The reimbursement money has been deposited in
tho newly organized fund for speakers' fees.
As a memorial to the school, the
Class of 1959, by class vote overruled a scholarship plan , and added
$1000 to the program to bring the
total amount in the Fund to $6704;
$2500 from which the interest alone
is to be used, and $4204 available
for direct payment.
The lectures given by tho Fundsupported speakers will be printed
by the public relations department
and distributed to members of the
Alumni Association.
It Is hoped that tho Fund will
Increase to $50,000 through donations, memorials, and Income from
estates left to the college. This figure would annually assure enough
Interest to pay for first rate Endowed Lectures.

Just keep riding! We are still a

little "shook" from being attacked

by a herd of deer. We were driving
aj ong this morning, minding our
own business, when we happened
to glance at the road. There stood a
delicate doe-eyed buck. Of course,
we stopped to let him cross the
road. In a moment, he was joi ned
by the three other members of Phi

drove on. Imagine our terror when
we looked back and saw the herd
charging after us. After a half-mile
chase we finally lost them.

we would like to make known that

The Voi ce Sounds Familiar

"This is Marine Division 2-Regiment 10 reporting in."
"Check!"
Every morning for two years these words were spoken by two
Marines who never had the opportunity to meet.
In 1955 and 1956 Dale Gardner was stationed at Camp LeJune,
North Carolina, working in Personnel Classification. Every morning
when he reported for work each Marine unit at Camp Lejune would
phone in and Dale would receive the message. Among the men phoning
in was Ira Gensemer, who at that time was stationed at another section of Camp Lejune in the 2nd Marine Division-Regiment 10.
This year both Ira and Dale were in the same psychology class in
Centennial and finally had the opportunity to meet. Many thanks to
BSTC and Dr. Satz 's psychology class!

B-burg Grapplers
Overwhelm Lincoln

The grapplers of Bloomsburg
STC continued on their winning
path by pounding a rousing and lopsided win over a game, but inexperienced, Lincoln crew. The Huskies toppled the Lincoln matmen in
seven out of eight matches.
Mavnard "Luke" Aunest. Tom
Gorant , Dick Rimple, and Walter
Fake each scored five points by
pins. Dick Rimple, the steadiest
wrestler on the squad, produced the
fastest fall of the year in 37 seconds by using a barrel roll and
tight waist. Jim Garman put on
one of the finest shows of the evening as he outpointed his man 1512, while giving him a 24-pound advantage. Bob Rohm, Bob Asby, and
Walt Fake teamed to outscore their
opponents in an overwhelming fashion. Stan Elinsky found Cor Barnes'
weight a little too much to be handled. Battling evenly all through
the match, Stan had the tie, but
time ran out and Barnes scored a
5 to 3 decision.
The fin al tabulation was 29 to 3.

The "B" Club volleyball team
faced the girls of Susquehanna, Lycoming, and Mansfield. They
dropped all games. Bloomsburg's
quint fared little better, losing tilts
to Lycoming and Susquehanna. In
the bowling competition, Jean
Matchulat scored high singles in
the first match against Lycoming.
In the second contest Jean, Rita
Vignola, and Bobbi Obudzinski fell
behind in the early frames and
couldn't catch up to the Lycoming
girls who won, 364-329.
"B" Club women took third place
in the swimming meet, competing
in the butterfly breast stroke, back
stroke, candle relay, newspaper
stunt, crawl, freestyles and 200
yard medley. Molly Mattern, Kay
Nearing, Gloria Glahn, and Mary
Ann Thornton captured three third
places and four second places for a
total of 15 points. High score was
Lycoming's 19 and second was
Susquehanna's 17.
Basketball and volleyball teams
were under the tutelage of Miss
Eleanor Wray. The swimmers were
coached by Gordon Shockley,
U.S.M.C.
The invitation to attend the Lycoming Playday was a result of a
Sportsday held on our campus last
spring. The women's athletic organizations of six colleges were
represented at that time. At the
present time, "B" Club is planning
another intercollegiate sports program for this semester.

Millersvill e Too
Much for Huskies

Jumping off to an early lead
which was never overcome, the
Mauraders of Millersville defeated
our Husky cagers by a score of 75
to 63.
The Mauraders seemed to do
everything righ t as they sparkled
on defense as well as offense. High
scoring Bill Swisher was held to a
minimum of two points, and this
had a decided effect on the final
score. Norm Shutovich played his
usual outstanding game and ended
up as leading scorer for the Huskies
with a total of seventeen points.
John Mascioli turned in fourteen
points in a losing cause.

Council to Probe
Fund Possibilitie s

A special investigation committee was appointed by CGA presiden Ron Romig at the last regular
meeting of College Council, to examine the possibility of establishing
a charity fund at Bloomsburg.
A successful proj ect in other
schools, this campus reserve fund
would be used throughout the year
for various drive in the community
of Bloomsburg. Examples of these
drives would be the United Fund,
the Community Chest, or the Red
Feather.
The committee, headed by freshman representative Elaine Anderson, is investigating what specifically the money would be used for,
what charity organizations are active in the Bloomsburg area, how
to raise the initial sum of money
to start the fund , and when the program would go into effect.
Suggestions being considered at
present concerning the raising of
money are: (D a dance with an admission fee; (2) a bake sale and
(3) a used book bureau set up at
the beginning of the semester.

Kcdlands, Calif.—(I.P.) — The recent "summit meeting", sponsored
through the cooperation of the four
areas of the campus community at
the University of Redlands, is a
further effort to promote campus
communication here.
Topics under discussion included :
The academic, social and religious
atmosphere on campus ; admission
policies—criteria , statistical information on how many students are
accepted that go to schools elsewhere , and the reasons why : the
$800 scholarship ceiling, and the
point if the University can "legitimately 'buy ' br ains"; analysis of
budget allotment , discussion of academic education policy; and student morale.
Evaluation of the academic program, establishment of the students' voice in the policy making of
the University 's 50th anniversary
campaign , establishment of a policy
of appointing two student on the
University 's Public Relations Council, and agreement to continue
"summit meetings" on a regular
basis, were some of the maior accomplishments achieved in the first
student - fa culty - trustee - administrati on "summit meeting ", held
for th e first time last year.
Amherst , Mass. (I .P.)—The faculty of Amherst College has authorized the administration to experiment with a plan whereby a
year's leave of absence will be
granted to students whose academic performances appear inconsistent with academic ability.
The purpose of the plan is to
stimulate students to benefi t more
from their work and also give any
students on leave of absence a
chance to change their perspective
with regard to what they want to
gain from a college education. The
program , it was pointed out , w ill
not be used as a substitute for sus- ¦
pension or flunking. As in the past ,
any student who fails to meet the
academic requirements will be suspended. On the other hand , a st udent with even an 83 or 84 average
may be asked to leave for the year
