Radio Club To
Initiate Free
Message Service

A free message-handling service
available to BSC students is being
initiated by the Bloomsburg State
College Amateur Radio Club.
One of the ways by which radio
amateurs throughout the world
make their hobby worthwhile is
through the relaying of messages
for "non-hams." This service, for
which the ham receives no compensation , is carried out through a
hi ghly organized system of communication networks operating in
all of the states of the Union and
in most foreign countries. A few
countries prohibit such message
handling. Because the system is
based on volunteer operators there
can be no guarantee that the message will be delivered. However,
every effort is made to get the
messages through as soon as possible.

The college Amateur Radio Club
is now prepared to relay messages
to and from this area. This service
should be especially valuable to
BSC students away from home.
Messages to be sent should be as
short and to the point as possible,
as in a telegram, and should include the complete name and address, and if possible, th e phone
number of the addressee. Such
messages as birthday greetings,
marriage congratulations and happy anniversary messages are commonly sent .
The members send these messages on their own equipment. Last
year members brought their equipment to the college and set up a
station here on campus.
This message-handling service is
much used by service men and college students. The club asks students not to send a message for the
sake of sending it.
Requirements for admission are
a n interest in "Ham Radio Communication ,"a desire to be a"Ham"
operator, and a satisfactory standing in the college. Those interested
in using this service should contact
Mr. Shortess, club advisor, in room
25, Science Hall or box 83, or any
member of the Amateur Radio
Club.

1500 New Books Added To Library
During Summer; Various Number
Of Improvements Also Evident

Do you read for pleasure as well
as for your class assignments? In
either case the supply of materials
available in the BSC library has
increased. During the summer
months approximately 1500 new
books and 90 bound periodicals
have taeen added to the holdings of
the library.
Those who have started working
on assignments have noticed the
plastic covers marked "reserve" on
some of the cards in the card catalog. These jackets have been placed
on the author and title card of
each reserve book so that the student doesn't waste his time looking
for material in the wrong place.
The book lists at the reserve desk
nre now arranged by course numbers instead of facul ty member's
name. This conforms to school policy of using course numbers Instead of titles.
Students have probably noticed
a new face this year in the library.

New Students

BSC To Welcome
And Orient
Frosh Parents

Homecoming To
Include Concert,
Game and Dance

Sure It Was Fun, but . . .
The inevitable attitude prevailing over any incoming freshman
class 'is "With us it will be diffierent," and, in some manner, each
class is somewhat different from
those preceding or following it. The
Class of 1966 has indeed already
made its mark in the history of
BSC, a mark whose desirability is
somewhat questionable.
For the evening celebrating the
conclusion of Customs, the committee had prepared a program of
tribunal, singing the Alma Mater
to the Maroon and Gold Band ,
burning of dinks and a dance in
Centennial Gym. The frosh changed the program however by bursting at the seams after the tribunal,
totally ignoring the band playing
the Alma Mater and not bothering
to burn their dinks at all.
In the words of one student, "The
freshman will have to learn to respect the College Alma Mater." Although this is an affront of consid-

erable magnitude, the portion of
the evening that caused the most
concern was the carrying of the
Customs Committee downtown and
throwing them in the fountain.
However, the ramifications of this
prank may be viewed as cause for
worry. The "Town and Gown" relationship has been one of complete
raport for many years, lets hope
that this is no indication of a
change in atmosphere.
Although the freshmen showed
no r espe ct for th e ' Alma Mater , a
bit of foresight could have prevented the mass invasion of the town.
It has long been a custom to throw
the Customs Committee into water.
The pond, a former source of beauty and now becoming an eyesore,
should have been cleaned and filled
some time ago. I am well aware
th at the water supply was cut off
for construtcion but this does not
mean that its maintenance should
have been discontinued. —EDC

Miss Rice Spent Summer Vacation
Studying at London University

Summer vacations may come
and go, but studying 20th century
British cultui-e and earning a Bachelor of Excellence Certificate from
t he University of London made last
summer qui.te,far from the average
for Miss Alva Rice.
Miss Rice, o n e of BSC's professors of English spent her summer
studying at the University of London under the sponsorship of the
Institute for International Educatio n. She, with 120 other students
attended six weeks of general lectures on British literature, painting, music, sculpture, and drama.
Miss Rice also did research of T. S.
Eliot, the noted British author. At
the end of her course, Miss Rice
was awarded a Bachelor of Excellence Certificate , one of the very
few to be presented.
Commenting on the teaching
methods at the university, Miss
Rice remarked that in England the

student must accept the professor s
opinion. There was no attempt
made at original thinking. Miss
Rice also fo u nd th at th e Un iv ersity
of London is more concerned with
enriching the minds of students
than with giving them direct training for jobs.

BSC Professor
Publishes Paper
On His Ancestor

In the August 21, 1962 edi t ion of
the Herald-Chronicle in Halifax,
Nova Scotia, Dr. J. Almus Russell,
Professor of English, published the
illustrated article—"The Reverend
Charles Tupper — Grandfather of
the Canadian Confederation."
The article featured Dr. Tupper,
who was renowned as an advocate
of higher education in Canada, as
the founder of the temperance
movement in the Maritime Provinces , as the greatest Canadian
linguist of his time, and as the
father of Sir Charles Tupper, B.art.
Sir Charles, son of Dr. Tupper
and step grand-uncle of Dr. Russell , played a maj or part in uniting
the Canadian Provinces into the
present 'Dominion of Canada in
1867. Hence, he earned the sobriquet , "The Father of the Confederation. "
Because of the lack of schools,
Sir Charles' fath er educated him^
self . Like Abraham Lincoln, he
studied by the ligh t of a pine knot,
thu s saving the expense of candles.
He was ordained as a Baptist minister on July 17, 1817. Later, he received the Doctor of Divinity degree from Acadia College.
Dr. Tupper, as greatest Canadian linguist of his time, obtained a
reading and critical knowledge of
thirteen languages. He was forced
into a teaching career by the low
salaries given to clergymen in his
time.
This famous clergyman chose Dr.
Russell's great grandmother as his
third wif e.

Breakdown of
BSC Enrollment

First semester enrollment figures
of the college show that the total
enrollment is now 2,043. A breakdown of this figure shows that
there are 1,976 full time students
and 67 part-time students.
The registration figures also
showed that there arc 662 students
staying In dorms ; 367 students living in town ; and 683 students commute to and from college each day.
Forty-seven people are enrolled In
graduate work and there are 20
special part-time students.

The New
Maroon & Gold

by Katlileen Roselli
The following conversation was
overheard in Husky Lounge by one
of the Maroon and Gold's alert
eavesdroppers:
Frosh-type A: "Did you notice
the stuff that this school prints its
newspaper on?"
Frosh-type B: "Yea, it' s nothing
like the paper that Zilch High
School uses; we use that shiny
stuff."
Frosh-type A: "This paper must
be Quality "Z" ; it has all dirty
spots in it!"
The aforementioned Frosh obviously did not discern the intrinsic
and extrinsic value of the Maroon
and Gold's change to newsprint. For
months and months the "thinkers"
of the Maroon and Gold staff pondered over ways to make this publication a newspaper with the "bi g
college look." We definitely knew
that the quality of the writing and
reporting is unsurpassable! This
left us with only one alternative—
a change in external appearance.
Besides raising the prestige of
BSC in this age of "sta t us seeker s,"
the newsprint will also prove to be
of much practical value to the college student himself. Because of its
tendency to absorb moisture readily , this versatile material will be
an invaluable aid to the student as
an emergency ink blotter, umbrella, paint tester, or wrapper for a
wet bathing suit. It is also a superior packing material for those who
send fragile items through the mail.
Moreover, the elementary education maj ors will find it wise to save
their copies of the Maroon and
Gold for use in the media of paper
mache.
This new, light-weight material
will also prove to be a useful teaching aid to physics majors, who
want to explain the principle of
lift and drag. Of most importance
to the college maintenance crews
will be the fact that this paper
burn s faster and better !

Forensic Society
Includes Oratory
With Debating

The BSC Forensic Society, for-

merl y 'the BSC debating club, held

its organizational meeting recently.
The Society has changed its name
to include the addition of oratorical
and extemporaneous speaking to
its debating functions. Anyone
missing the first meeting and wishing to join the club may still do so.
The debate proposition for 19b263 for colleges is: Resolved, that
the non-communist nations of the
world should establish an economic
community. In an effort to help debators determine issues in this
ye ar 's proposition, the Forensic Society will sponsor a symposium to
be held on October 4 at 3:00 pm. in
Science Hall (rm. 8). The symposium members are Dr. Lawrence
Starlight , Dr. Charles Halstead ,
and Mr. Donald D'Elia. Each
member will speak ten minutes on
the debate proposition after which
they will be asked questions by debators. Everyone is invited to attend the symposium.
Mr. John Ouimet, a recent addition to the speech department will
assist Dr. Hopkins in the Forensic
program this year. The officers of
the Society are Bill Mattern , president ; Edward A'Zary, vice president; Charles Scaratino, treasurer;
and Lucy Zablocky, recording secretary.
Plans are now being drawn up
for participation in debate tournaments and there is a possibility
that the BSC debaters will engage
in practice debates with Marywood
College and Bucknell University
during the next month.

MMHBMHMHMMMaHHMHMHMMMMMMIMMM

The Husky gridders opened' the
1962 football campaign on a sour *
note as they were defeated by the
Bald Eagles of Lock Haven 34-14.
This was the first game of the season for both teams. Bloomsburg
drew first blood scoring early in
the first quarter. The fine quarterbacking of Dick Rohrer and the
running of Gary Sprout and Buz
Boerner led to the pass play from
Rohrer to Moses Scott for the
touchdown. Scott then kicked the
extra point to make the score 7-0.
Lock Haven came right back and
tied the score with a few minutes
Jeft in the first quarter. They scored again midway through the second quarter to lead, 14-7. The
Huskies roared from behind to tie
the score at 14-14 going into the
half-time intermission. On this
short drive, Sprout and Boer ner
were the workhorses, and Sprout
finally scored on a 2-yard, plunge
over right tackle. The extra point
w as scored by Scott on a r u n
around left end.
Team Effort
The Husky linemen, led by Bob
Christina, "Duke" Derrick, John
Sills , Trevor Carpenter, Art Tinner, Gary St ackhou se, Lou Ciocca,
Neil Mercando, Gary Barnaba, and
Jack Cu rrie, did a good j ob in containing Lock Haven 's running attck. Hats off to Gary Barnaba and
Bob Christina who played an outstanding game at defense.
Boerner (who averaged 5 yards
per carry ) along with Sprout (4
yards per carry) led the Husky
rushing att ack. Between the two
of them , they carried the ball 27 of

tion as he hauled down five passes
from Rohrer for good yardage.
All in all it was a good team effort , and the breaks were j ust not
in the Huskies' favor. Lock Haven
has a good team, but on paper they
were not that much better than the
Huskies.
Injuries
The Huskies not only lost the
game, but they also lost the services of Bob Letcavage for the rest
of the season ; Bob suffered a dislocated shoulder injury. Larry Tironi sprained his ankle on the second play of the game, but he stayed in and turned in a fine performance at defensive halfback. Larry
was on crutches at the time of this
writing, so it looks like he may be
out of action for a few weeks. Tomorrow, the Huskies take on Mansfield here at home. This should be
another good game, so let 's get out
and support our team.
Bucknell Scrimmage
On September 15, the squad met
the Buckn ell Bison s in wh at wa s to
be a scrimmage but was played under game conditions with the exception of kick-offs. In general, the
Huskies played well, but they lost
to the highly-rated Bucknell team,
21-14.
During this first workout, the
Huskies lost the services of Lee
Fredericks and Roy Peffer. Fredericks will probably remain inactive during tho rest of the season
because of his broken ankle, and
Peffer 's knee injury will keep him
from playing indefinitely.
A pass from Rohrer to Peffer
gave the Huskies a 6-0 lead at halftime. Bucknell came back with two
scoring passes that put them in the
lead , 15-6; the Huskies then scored
6 points on a 60-yard TD drive plus
two extra points. Less than one
minute remained when the Bison
scored on a pass into the end zone
to take the game.
