College co-operated with the Army,
the N avy, and the Department of
Commerce in offering various types
of aviation programs, including the
Flight Instructor Programs. Out of
this activity th e town of Bloomsburg was encouraged to purchase
the Airport , which now has become
an important part of the industrial
and economic life of the community.

Not yet to the planning-board are several new buildings for the BSC campus. Only preliminary plans have
been made, and the location, construction dates, and architecture of the new halls are still undecided. The
drawing above shows the approximate location and size of the additions. Students wishing to get dimensional
view of the future campus can do so by looking at the model now displayed, in. the lobby of Carver Hall.

Top Priority on
Request to State

When the legislature of Pennsylvania convenes in January, 1961,
requests will be considered for new
buildings to be constructed on
campuses of the fourteen state colleges.
During the last decade, the private arts colleges have increased
25 per cent in enrollment, Pennsyl-.
vania State University 53 per cent,
while the State (Teachers ) Colleges have 63 per cent more students
than in 1950. It is evident that continued increases in the enrollment
of college students will be met
largely, in the future, by stateowned and state-supported institutions of higher education.
Meet at Harrisburg
A meeting with Dr. Harold Alderf er of the Department of Public
Instruction was held in Harrisburg
on June 24 with President Harvey
A. Andruss, Mr. Paul Martin, Business Manager, and Mr. Thomas
Go'rrey , Superintendent of Buildings and Grounds, representing the
Bloomsburg State College. Requests for new construction, land
purchases, and extension of campus
utilities were made for the next
three bienniums (1961-1967). An
agreement was reached on the
name, number, and estimated costs
of new buildings to replace outworn structures and to expand the
size of the present college, and also
the order in which construction is
to proceed. A two-year period for
construction would make the first
of these buildings available for use
not earlier than September , 1963.

The comprehensive yearly enrollment of Bloomsburg State College
for the period beginning June 1,
1959, and ending May 31, 1960, has
been filed with the Department of
Public Instruction, and shows a
total yearly enrollment of almost
1,700 students.
An examination of the enrollment
in the various divisions shows that
the largest division is secondary, education , which numbers more than
700 students, while business has

students (s gradually being whittled
away. After World War II, when the G.I.'s were on campus, there
were 600 men and £00 women.
There are now 912 men—this is
hardly 55 per cent of the total. In
fact, this year, there were only 49
more men than women. This number may increase proportionately"
with the opening of the new men's
dormitory for 200 students. It will
mean also that the total enrollment
will probably be 130 more than last
year.

A Word about the Maroon and Gold
When the Rat sheet first hit the stands last spring one would ha\ c
thoug ht by reading it that the Maroon and Gold is carefull y pre-read
and thoroug hly censore d by the administration before it goes to press.
This is not true , but it serves as an examp le of one of the misunderstandings of the policies and procedures of this paper. At the opening
of the 1960-61 college year we would like to explain briefl y something
about the objectives and operation of the Maroon and Gold.
The Maroon and Gold is your paper. Every person who pays activities f ees helps in its support. The college*newspaper receives an allotment from the Community Government Association based upon its
needs. Because each student is partially financing the paper this editor
will turn away no reader who wishes to offer criticism or suggestions.
No st#ff member receives pay for working on the Maroon and Gold ,
althoug h at many colleges money is paid for newspaper work. Our
organization is completely voluntary.
This paper is not necessarily anti-administration and pro-student
body. Editorially we are not bound to follow the dictates of any administrative or student group. We are bound, however , to collect all available facts and analyze them before we rush our views into print. Seemingly unwise decisions are sometimes made by both students and
administrative officials , but often clear reasoning lies behind the action
and becomes apparent later. We wish to avoid this trap, yet present
our opinions with speed and accuracy. If undesirable conditions exist
we must feel free to comment upon them, but, on the other hand , we
must not allow beneficial changes to go unnoticed.
We are not a censored press. Only the advisor and staff members
read the copy before it is sent to the printers. When the paper appears,
however, we are responsible to the study body and to the administration for every article printed. Therefore we cannot present poorly informed opinions or accept "Letters to the Editor" which are cloaked
in anonymity.
One of the purposes of the Maro on and Gold is to inform students
of the happenings on and off campus, but often we are unable to print
all the information handed to us for publication. At times we must
print "all the news that fits ,'' and some news must remain unpublished.
Contributors must understand and accept this condition , but we will do
our best to achieve complete campus coverage within our pages.
With these few notes of exp lanation we would like to begin a year
of service to you , our readers. Any comments or suggestions will be
willing ly received.

THANKS . .

The staff members of the Maro on and Gold would like publicl y to
thank Dr. Cecil Seronsy for the time and work he devoted to the paper
while serving as advisor. His dependability was unfailing—Dr. Seronsy
lias a way of getting tilin gs done which no one else could dup licate 'For
his perceptive criticism we are thankful. For his assistance we are
in his debt.

Finally! The North Hall is occupied. Two hundred BSC men have
moved into the building they will call home l'cr the next nine months.
Most were impressed by the modern and attractive decor, and Waller
Hall women curbed their j ealousy except when in their aged quarters.
Previous to the opening of the fall semester the dorm was run somewhat like a hotel. It seemed strange to hear Dean Stradtman talking of
"check-ins" and "check-outs" at the "desk ." First to "check-in " to
New North Hilton were one hundred ten Navy veterans with their wives
and children. The men had been on campus during the war years of 1944
and 1945 and were trained as Navy personnel under the V-12 program
and returned for a reunion during the last week-end in July. (Although
the group claims the distinction of being the first to sleep in the dorm ,
some suspect that Dean Stradtman himself was the first inhabitant .)
Business picked up during the last summer session when seven college
men and approximately one hundred wrestlers and their coaches moved
in. They were followed by the pre-season Husky football squad on September 5, and by the male members of the Maroon and Gold band on
Rpntpmhpr fi.

Is Filled to Capacity
With the opening of fall sessions
the dorm is filled to capacity, and
the oversights and minor problems
are being discovered and , as quickly
as possible, repaired .
Descending into New North Hall
one finds a spacious public business
lobby lined by neutral bricks. A
stairway bordered by poles leads
from the lobby into the upstairs living area. Passing to the rear of the
main lobby one enters the main
dorm lounge where there is a television set, card playing and study
ureas , vending machines, and a view
of the rear plaza. At any time of
day or night the resident men will
be able to buy coffe e, soup, sandwiches, candy, cigarettes, or soda.
The vending machines are supervised by the Husky Snack Bar , and
profits will eventually benefit the
the student body. More lawn chairs
may be purchased later for use in
the p laza during spri ng and early
fall. Regrett ably, co-eds will not be
permitted to use the lounge, cant een , or lobby areas.
Al so on the ground floor is the
apartment of Dean of Men George
Stradt man and family. The apartment is compact , well-p l a nned a n d
tastefully furnished. Dean Stradtman 's offi ce is but a step away from
the a p a rt m ent i n the short ro w of
offices behind the post office which
u/ili snrvp dnrm students.
Storage Splice in Roar
In the rear of the ground floor
are ample storage rooms, plumbing
and heatin g utilities and a large
laundry room in which , it is hoped ,
coin-operated washers and dryers
will be installed in the future. At
present , men will place laundry in
I he locker room behind the Dean 's
apartment to be gathered by the
college laundry staff.
Pict ured above are two views of
a typical room in the dorm. All
walls are of painted cement block
und have attached to thorn a meial
frame upon which to hang paintings, pennants , and pictures normally found in men's residences. Two
unusually high beds are provided in
each room to , as Dean Stradtmun
says, "permit easy and frequent
sweeping." Each room also has two
study desks with chairs , one easy
chair , and a chest of drawers.
Lamps are not furnished by the
state, but dorm residents must rent
them from the Bookstore for three
dollars per year. Men will not be
permitted to use their personal
lamps. This is an attempt to secure
standardization , reduce fire haz-

ards, and require adequate lighting
for study . Each room is equipped
with two large closets faced with
light maple folding doors. The upper space of the closets are compartmented for easy storage of luggage, h ats , packages, etc.
Resident Counselors
Two counselors live on each of
the two upper floors in rooms near
the end of the halls. There they can
keep watch on the study rooms,
regulate the thermostat for their
wing, and communicate with the
Dean through a speaker installed in
in the room. Other resident men
can receive messages through the
speakers placed throughout , the
halls.
A lounge equipped with telephone
booths and easy chairs is located in
the center of each of 1he floors for
relaxation. Smoking in the dorm is
restricted except in the lounge
areas.

5. A $904 ,000 dormitory to accommodate two hundred fifty men.
The cost of dormitories would be
self-liquidating through fees paid

would be providing buildings costing about three million dollars , and
students would pay for dormitories

The COMMUTERS

Welcome back everyone. Our
campus has that bright new look.
(H andy Andy does the j ob.)
There have been so many changes
on campus th at we feel we should
help you notice them. One in particul ar is the establishment of the
Business Education Department in
the new science building. Suggestions for placement of the Science
Department will be appreciated.
We have it on good authority
that all the new trees and shrubs
on campus are going to be classified
by Dr. Hohn and his Botany classes.
Don 't they call that making use of
community resources ?
The new men's dorm is finished
and ready for occupancy. Maybe
this will eliminate the migration
off-campus weekends. We'll be observing this closely...
Faculty members seem to be
younger every year. In fact, it's difficult at times to distinguish faculty
members from students.
Summer field courses are going
to be required of all students in the
field of science. Basic equipment
will consist of insect repellent , hip
boots, and a crash helmet. Enroll
now and avoid the rush.
New leashes for the trained lawn
mowers were requisitioned last
May . They 'll be all ready by the
coming spring. That is Efficiency
with a capital E.
We feel it is our duty to inform
you that the parking policy has
been fir mly established. No fines
will be contested before they are
paid. Seems like a "shoot fir st an d
ask questions later " de a l , but we
would never question authority.
We expect 'Dr. Rabb's flowers will
bloom with a boom after his radioactive summer .
Even the library has a revised
policy. Instead of closing twenty
minutes before the stated time, the
library will close ten minutes before the stated time, giving the student every possible opportunity to
make the best use of our library.
and two while living on another college campus.
For more than a decade, almost
half the material , as shown by the
course titles in the curriculum for
educating teachers for the secondary or high schools, has been in genoral education or the liberal arts.
Only one course in the first two
years has treated education as a
professional field or teaching as a
process.

j< ftw umHH uimn gog xveeuou

English (composition and literature), science (biological and physical), social studies (history and

are presently studied by freshmen
and sophomores, By substituting

Many New Buildin gs

( Continued from page 1)
first building on this list is an auditorium to seat two thousand. Authorized by the legislature five years
ago, the capacity was fixed at
twelve hundred. However , funds
were not available after the construction of the Sutliff Classroom
Building and (New) North Hall. Increasing the size of an auditorium
is impossible because of fixed location of the state, acoustics, and
other fa ctors such as visibility, ventilation, and heating. If this auditorium had been built, it would
have been outgrown before it was
completed, since enrollment has
doubled and is now on its way to
being tripled.
The 1961-1963 list of requests for
new buildings follows :
l.A $1,631,000 Auditorium with
two stories to provide firs t floor and
balcony and room for 2,000 seats.

2. An athletic field to be developed in area between Chestnut
Street Extension and Light Street
Road and to include farm land
around the President's House.
Space for football and baseball
fields , track, tennis courts, and
playing fields would be provided at
a cost of $320,000.
3. A field house, 200,000 squ ar e
feet , two stories high, to be built for
$1,400,000 on Chestnut Street Extension with facilities similar to
those now provided in the Centennial Gymn asium except swimming
pool.
4. Classroom Building: No. 2 to
cost $800,000 and match Sutliff
Hall . It would be located between
Spruce Street and the Centennial
Gymnasium. Additional land may
need be purchased in the areas of
Spruce Street across from the Benj amin Franklin Laboratory School
and along Second Street.

5. Dormitory No. 2 for two hundred fifty men to be situated between New North Hall and the College Commons. The building would
occupy the site of Present Old
North Hall , would be known as
South Hall, and would cost $1,000,000.

6. A $160,000 maintenance building to be constructed in line with
the laundry and present maintenance building.
For the two-year period, 1963-65,
buildings are arranged in a preferential order as foll ows:

men to cost $1,000,000 and be located on present site of Science Hall.

September 5th marked the opening i day of pre-season practice for
the iocfel' eleven.
With a whole host of returning
lettermen available, head coach
Walter Blair is expecting to mold a
team that should stir up a lot of
troubl e in the State Conference this
year and cou ld possibly wa lk off
w ith top hon or s.
Heading the list of backs will be
Joe Rishkofski , honorable mention ,
All Conference last year; Ed Cogco
a transfer from PMC where he
made honorable mention, Little AilAmerican ; dependable John Johnson who went both ways last year;
Dick Rohrcr, a standout quarterback who made the varsity as a
freshman last year; and defensive
backs Bud Gruber, Moses Scott,
and Freddy * ry.
Notables returning in the line
will be such stalwarts as Bob Warren , returning after sitting out a
season with inj uries; Dick Dennick
and Gary Stackhouse, standouts as
freshmen last season ; Bob Christin a, an outstanding defensive center last season ; George Nayce and
Frank Sorochak, two men big and
rough enough to play in any man 's
league; and Rollie Cunningham and
Stan Hugo , ends with three years
of varsity experience.
Coach Blair's one big weakness
should be depth in the big Husky
forward wall , since he lost the services of eight of last years regulars.
However , the JV's chalked up an
impressive record last y ear and
some help might be acquired from
them.

and here at BSC can be heard the "grunts " and "groans" of the 1960
edition of the Husky grid-squad running through their paces in preparation for the coming season.
Coach Walt Blair has assembled one of the smallest groups ever to
come to fall practice, but local sports enthusiasts (including yours truly)
feel that it is also one of the best. It is a veteran-laden squad with a
i
burning desire to win. What more could a coach ask for ? ,
And incidently what more could you ask for ? If this team doesn 't
bring you out to the games, someone might get the impression that you
came to college to study.
Things To See in Sports This Season :
1. Last year's freshman football players wearing their new football
letters.
2. Coach Blair's smile if the team wins the Scran ton scrimmage.
3. The new freshman girls in the lounge. Oops! Forgot — in some
cir cles that' s not a recognized sport.
Our Pick of the Week
The sports staff of the M and G this year will endeavor to pick for you
ten winners in national football competition each week and will start
by choosing what we consider the top ten teams in the country. We
realize that this may be an unprecedented thing to do; but we feel if
Stanley Woodward can do it , so can we.
Our Picks
1. Mississippi
6. Georgia
2. Illinois
7. Ohio State
8. Penn State
3. Syracuse
4. Northwestern
9. Washington
10. Purdue
5. Pittsburgh
Well , that's it for this week in sports. We'll be back in the next issue
with the latest in sport's happenings on the local scene and some chit
chat about the national scene. In the meantime don't forget we have
an outstanding ball club this year. Get out and support it!
