The previous issue of the Maroon and Gold contained an anno u n cement of a seri es of films
to be presented by the American Association of University
Women. Since that article was
published there has been a
change in the policy of admission to the programs. Instead of
a series charge of $2.50, BSC
students will be admitted free
of charge. Ther e "will be a charge
of $5.00 for the series and $1.00
for admission to a single film
for all non-BSC persons who
wish to attend.

The
proposed by the College Council
and recommended by the Library
Policy Committee has been approved by Dr. Harvey A. Andruss
and will go into effect January 3,
1962.
The changes made are the extension of closing time to 10:00
Sunday through Friday and opening at 3:30 on Sunday. The hours
for Saturday h a v e not been
changed. It had formerly been suggested that the library should close
during the dinner hour. This will
not be necessary. However, sever al
new student librarians will be appointed and work schedules will be
rearranged.
At the present , the library cont ains over 45,000 volumes and
hopes to increase the amount considerably within the next two or
three years. Long-range planning
calls for the construction of a new
library building, the plans of
which are now being studied.

FROSH SET THE PACE

If the recent Freshman Class election was any evidence of class spirit
those students are to be commended. One can see the enthusiasm and
interest of the Frosh in the number that voted in the genral election for
class officers. The percentage of the freshmen who appeared at the polls
for the general election was 72.39. Of the 659 freshmen at BSC, 477
exercised their voting privilege.
Vigorous Campaigning
During the primary election 427 freshmen voted for 23 candidates —
64.33 per cent. In the primaries there were three nominees for president,
five for vice president, four for treasurr, three for secretary , f ou r for
man representative, two for woman representative and two for advisor.
A large number of students showed willingness to serve their fellow classmates. As the time for election came near there was a period of very
vigorous campaigning. Posters, cards, and pictures showed that freshman
candidates were contributing much time and energy to winning election.
Freshmen, Politically Minded
Are the freshmen more politically minded than most students ? This
was apparent. It also seems to be an indication of their interest in the
college community. Such interest is needed on campus where many
students tend to lead a passive existence or even "passive resistance"
to college activities.
The success of many activities and the general level of school spirit
is usually determined by active participation. Thus the class of 1965
shows much promise of success in their future projects. Their activity
in this election has shown their interest in the college. However, we
off er a challenge to this class—Can you maintain this high level of interest?

Lest We Forget Our Musical Emissaries

Plaudits to our talented musical organizations who presented an
outstanding Christmas program in a series of three concerts this past
week. The Choraleers have been active on this campus for a number of
years, but this semester's achievements are especially noteworthy. Too
often this group is taken for granted—just "another extra-curircular
activity." Many people do not realize the great amount of work that
goes on behind the scenes in this organization. In addition to extra
weekly rehearsals, members give freely of their own time to prepare
for concerts; and sine© we have no school of music on the campus, the
voices in this group are for the most part untrained. Personal effort
and hard work have resulted in a quality of music that approaches the
pr ofessional level.
Efforts of Three Groups
Students who do a little more than pass the time and occupy space
during assembly programs have noticed some exceptional additions to
our musical family. The Choraleers, resplendent in new maroon robes
and gold mantles, opened the Christmas activities supported by the recently organized Freshman Girls Chorus. In addition , the fif t h and six th
gr ade choir of the Benj amin Franklin School, singing in two-part harmony, showed that age has no bearing upon the amount of talent one
has. The brass choir of the Maroon and Gold Band accompanied the
combined choruses. Backdrops and special effects were also the work
of the Choraleers and members of the Bloomsburg Players under the
direction of Mr. Cope.
We also congratulate Miss Bisgrove, directress of the Chora leers
and Benjamin Franklin Choir ; Mrs. Evans, who dire cts the Fr esh ma n
Girls Chorus, and Dr. Carlson, band director. We are all cognizant of
the prowess of our athletes ; how many realize that our musicians work
j ust as hard, nearly as long, and represent BSC equally as well ?

Notes & Quotes
by SUE HALKYARD

Some people can remember the
good
old days" when Christmas
"
was a house filled .with the pleasant
aroma of freshly-baked cookies;
the luxuriously scented trees didn't
begin to line curbstones until well
after the last of -the Thanksgiving
leftovers had found their way into
the h a sh , and children still believed
that Santa Claus came from the
Nor t h Pole on Christ ma s eve in a
sleigh filled with presents. Today
we are in the jet age and Santa 's
sleigh is as outmoded as a Model-T
Ford. The Christmas season begins
sometime in October when the
store windows are filled with lavish displays and the public is
swamped with advertising advising
them to "shop early for Christmas." Christmas has become the
property of the money-hungry
world of the merchants. He, whose
parents couldn 't 'even find a bed for
his resting place, has a birthday
party which is measured by nothing quite so important as the volume of sales.
Morals and Materialism
Many people are resentful of this
ever-increasing commercialism of
th e birthday of Christ; they say
this is one good measure of the
moral depravity of man in the materialistic world of the present
day . "Love thy neighbor" has become virtually an impossible task
and "peace on earth" belongs only
in the words of a §ong. It may be
that the large majority of us are
not at all concerned with this
"commercialism." The following
are opinions given by your fellowstudents on the question, "Is
Christmas too commercialized?" :
In a sense it's too commercialized because it affects those who
cannot afford it; these people will
often go into debt to obtain gifts
f or th eir f amili es a s a res u lt of
high-powered advertising. Thus
the real meaning of the gift is ignored and the emDhasis is on value
alone.
Al Geasy (J unior)
We should all remember during
this season that very old admoniti on: "It' s not what we give, but
what we share—for the gift without the giver is bare."
Sam Keiser (Sophomore)
The business man may be partly
to blame for the over-commercialism of Christmas, but the public
in general are the real offenders.
After all they are the ones who do
the buying and all the people are
not gullible enough to be influenced
by "pressure advertising. "
Nick Monatesta (Freshman)
Yes. The idea of Christ has been
forgotten by most industries. Santa
Claus has replaced Christ in the
Christmas spirit.
Peter Fleming ( Freshman)
Yes. I do not want to feel obligated to buy presents at Christmas
but rather to celebrate the birth of
Christ.
Joe Kressler (Sophomore )
The spirit of giving during Yuletide has been degraded to the point
where the average person only
looks forward to what he will receive for Christmas.
Bill Hoosty (Freshman)
Yes. People are too far away
from the religious spirit. Advertising begins before Thanksgiving.
We should get back on the ^religious theme.
Bonnie Gray (Sophomore)

Dear Santa ,
I'm not so good at writing letter s, but I would like you to consider my requests. I could- think
of dozens of articles I would like
for Christmas, but I think these
are most desired.
I would like a yard stick to measure all the love in the world , and
a shovel to bury all the hate.
A hanky to dry the tears of the
sad people would do fine , together,
with a Donald Duck Comic book
to makp them smile.
And last , I would like a magic
carpet to take me to the highest
point and then a pall of spring
water t o rinse the world of all it s
troubles and make it clean and
fresh again.
Santa, these are such little requests that could do so much good.
Please see what you can do.
Thank you ,
Faye Scheidt
P.S. You don't have to wrap them.
Letter of Honorable Mention
Dear Santa Claus:
Last week I dropped my glasses
and the lenses fell out. I went to
my "eye doctor, and he fixed them
up real good. But I think he
goofed ; you see, everything I do
looks backward to other people —
my profs tell me I'm backwards
anyway. I want to buy Lenny a
special present, but I don 't know
if it costs twenty-nine dollars or
ninety-two dollars. Will you please
send me a new pair of glasses because I only have thirty dollars in
the bank. My roommate checked
these figures for me, I live in Waller Hall, room 471.
Wanda Kline
Dear Santa,
I am writing this letter in hopes
that I am in high standing on your
gift list. Now I'll have to admit I
haven't been the best boy in the
world for the past 15 or 20 years,

but I am one of the top three.
The few minor mischievous acts
that I became involved in were
merely quirks of fate.
Surely you don't think my friend
and I would have pushed my
Grandfather's out-house over had
we known he was in it! I most certainly wouldn't have led that horse
up to the third floor of the air police barracks and shot him if I knew
they were going to have to cut him
into little pieces to carry him out.
Do you think for one minute, th at
I would have brough t a pet alligator home from Florida if I knew
he was going to eat my Mother's
Toy Terrier? As you can see, sir ,
fate has been dealing to me from
the bottom of the deck.
Knowing that you are a considerates and understanding individual , I have prepared the following
list of articles I would like for
Christmas:
A book of witty remarks, so I
won't be pressed for an answer
when someone says hello to me.
A Dromedary Camel because only
seniors ,are allowed to have cars.
A large economy size bottle of NoDoze Pills so I can increase my
pinochle playing time from 10 to
13 hours a day.
A quickie-meter so I'll know when
to cut classes to keep from flunking those quickies.
A private telephone line in my
home to avoid finding out the current condition of Mrs. Smith 's varicose veins before being able to get
through to my girl 's house.
Copies of all next semester's tesfe
so that I can become a sophomore.
A sleeping bag and tent, for the
weather is beginning to get cold
and my mother is still bitter over
the loss of her Toy Terrier.
A do-it-yourself bomb scare kit to
add variety to this dull life.
A pack of Poppie Seeds so I can
make my fortune selling" opium,
and
A pair of dark glasses for those
Saturday morning classes.
That, Santa|, is all that I am
requesting. I hope you arc successful in being able to acquire all the
articles on my list.

Bill Nelson

the boards, one on Tuesday, December 5, against Kutztown State
College and Saturday, December
9, against Kings College. We will
again host Kings on January 6, and
on January 10, we will play Mansfield State College.
The Kutztown game will no
doubt prove to be one of the most
thrilling games of the season. We
held a lead throughout the game
but as the clock stated eight seconds left t o play, Kutztown had
taken the lead and the score read
62-58. Jim McKinley made two foul
shots and Fran Curran added a
score tieing basket.

the firs t overtime and went into
another. Gary Rupert scored the
basket that kept us in the running.

once for us to keep the score tied
72-72. At this point, Dick Lloyd
converted and we took a slight
lead. Jeff Garrison made two baskets and Rupert converted for a final
score of 79-74.

The j ayvees also won their game
with a score of 71-51. James (17)
and Kurzinsky (16) were high

Kings Game
The Kings College game provided us with our third win in a row
this season. Kings team brought
along a fair sized crowd plus a
band, only to see their Monarchs
fall to a 84-61 defeat.
We took an early lead and held
it throughout the game. The Monarchs began the game using a manLWiii ctii

a tight press.
Freshmen
Three freshmen were used during
the game. Bob Farina, Bob Herzig,
and Eddie Beck all represented
their classes well. The efforts of
sophomore Jim McKinley were lost
early in the game due to a fall on
the head. Captain Dick Lloyd put
on a fine show as usual and lead
our team by scoring 21 points. Jeff
Garrison and Bob Herzig each had
14 points and Fran Curran, 12. Top
honors of the night went to Bob
Nugent of Kings with 28 points, 13
of which were foul shots.

Sportsman Diary

by ED BERLIN
Thanks to the efforts of a certain
group of gentlemen in charge of a
certain mining company, the Susquehanna River is now a vast
stretch of dirty water almost void
of fish and plant life. A few weeks
ago this same river was a beautiful
body of water in" which many form s
of fish and aquatic vegetation
thrived. The citizens of this section
of the state fought long and hard
to get the river cleaned up so that
it might be turned into a useful
recreational area. The river had
changed greatly in the last few
y ears. Its waters lost their sulfur
color and swarmed with many
forms of fish ; its banks were the
homes of furbearing animals. The
quiet backwaters with their heavy
plant life provided a resting and
feeding place for thousands of migr atory geese and ducks. The river
had become a place that an outdoorsman could look upon with
pride. Now, in a matter of a few
days, all of this is gone.
Amount of Destruction
A short walk along the banks of
the river will soon show j ust how
much destruction has been caused
by the mine water. Hundreds of
dead fish line the banks. Most of
these fish are about a foot above
the present water line showing that
they have j umped out on the shore
in an effort to escape the foul water . Many local residents have reported actually seeing these fish
j ump from the water to the bank.
A friend of mine found a twentyeight inch Walleye that weighed
over six pounds and that died as a
direct result of the mine acid.

Last Saturday, Coach Russell
Houk took his Husky grapplers to

match with C. W. Post College,
one of th e small college wrestling
powers of the East, and returned

scoring eight wins, all by decisions.
Freshmen Bill Paule and Ed Taylor , along with sophomor es Dick
Scorese, Dave Stumpfle, and j uniors Bob Hall and Bill Hughes also

host to Winona State College, Winona, Minn., and chalked up their
second victory of the season and
thirteenth consecutive win over a
two year period with a score of
25-10.
Jerry Fortney, a sophomore,
looked very impressive in pinning
Miller in the second period of the
opening match. From then on it
was almost all Bloomsburg, as Bil
Hughes, Ed Taylor , Dick Scorese,
and Bill Paule scored victories over
their opponents. In the battle of the
157-pounders, Gridley of Winona

pinned Dave Steumpfle. In the 167;pound match, Gridley literally
