Elemen tary Student Teachers Plan
To Take 3-Day Trip To Pittsbur gh
Dr. Royce Johnson, divisional
director of the Elementary Curriculum, has announced plans for a
three day practicurn trip to Pittsburgh next wepk. Seventy-two student teachers will attend. They will
be accompanied by Mrs. Iva Mae
Beckley, supervisor of elementary
student teaching, Mr. "Warren Johnson, supervisor of elementary student teaching, and Dr. Johnson.
The students will leave Wednesday morning and will first visit the
Cumberland Valley Joint School
System before observing the elementary schools ofvpittsburgh.
Points of Interest
Special points of interest in Cumberland Valley Schools are the Elementary Physical Education classes and the Joplin Reading Plan, a

method where pupils read at their
own levels. In the elementary
schools of Pittsburgh, the students
will observe teaching, modern
mathematics courses, foreign language classes, and non-graded programs. A variety of schools will be
visited, some in poorer districts
and others in wealthy districts .
While in Pittsburgh, the students
will stay in the Carlyle Hotel, adj acent to the University of Pittsburgh Campus. They will have an
opportunity to tour Pittsburgh before returning to BSC.
Following the trip, those attending will speak at various seminars
and classes on experiences and observations encountered during their
study of various teaching techniques at the elementary level.

Players Rehearse Off-Broadway Hit;
Riverwind To Be Staged In Carver

RIVERWIND, the off-Broadway
hit of 1963, is currently being rehearsed by the Bloornsburg Players of Bloomsburg State College.
Featured in the cast are: Rip Van
Winkle, Elise Mover,, Ruth Campb ell , Susan Harper, Larry Gerber,
Iva Klingaman, and Tom Curtis.
The book and lyrics for this
"musical play" were written by
John Jennings. Set at a motel on
the banks of the Wabash River in
Indiana, the story relates the problems of three types of love: youthful , middle-aged and mature.
Blend Music & Story
An outstanding feature of this
musical is the perfect blending, of
music and story. And too, a wide
range of musical styles, ranging
from the waltz to barrelhouse, are
employed by Mr. Jennings.
Currently all of the crews of the
club are busy making scenery, setting lights , making costumes, publicity campaigns or any of the other many details that go into production of a play of this sort. All
are readying for that firs t of three
performances next month.
Bloomsburg students, faculty,
and townspeople are invited to the

Emlyn Williams To Portray Several
Characters From Novels By Dickens

Emlyn Williams, well known
for his dramatic readings from
Dickens will appear in Carver
Auditorium , Thursday, Oct. 29, at
8:15 pm. As actor, playwright and
director, working in all three capacities simultaneously, Mr. Williams has served the Englishspeaking theatre for thirty years.
Born in Wales in 1905, the son
of a village innkeeper, he spoke
only Welsh as a child, learning
English at school. At the age of
ten , he won a scholarship to the
local Holywell County School, and
at the age of seventeen another
scholarship, this one in France to
Christ Church, Oxford .
Three-Gaited Career
* It was at the University that the
youngster discovered the Theatre,
by means of the Dramatic Society.
In 1927, while he was still an undergraduate , his first play, "Full
Moon ," was produced at the Oxford Playhouse. Later that year he
paid his first visit to New York
with the same play.
His performance in Edgar Wallace's "On the Spot ," and his
staging of his own play, "A MurEmlyn Williams
der Has Been Arranged ," both in
1930, started him on his threegaited career.

DnAmidon Views Teachers Communic ation
Problems At Annua lEducational Conference

The basic issue in education , an
issue which has been systematically avoided for the past 50 years, is
viewed by Dr. Edmond Amidon as
the teacher's problem of communication. In addressing the Eighteenth Annual Conference for
Teachers and Administrators held
at BSC October 10, Dr. Amidon
challenged his audience to take a
closer look at the assumptions
which prevail among educators.
Research Outside the Classroom
All but the most recent research
in education has been done In areas
of education outside the classroom.
Amidon cited the studies by Rlckover and Conant as prime examples. Both men find that current
teaching practices leave much to
be desired. "Anything can be criticized; the real job is to do something about the problem," said Dr.
Amidon. He added that teachers
do not know how to Improve primarily because th ey are unable to
agree as to what a good teacher is.
AMumption*
In examining the assumptions
prevalent among teachers, Amidon
defi ned an assumption as t h at
premise upon which we operate as

though it were true; as though it
had been proven. From a list of 35
such assumptions which he has collected over the years, Dr. Amidon
chose six to explain in detail.
1. Routine is a good way to teach.
2. Be firm in the beginning.
3. Show a film every day.
4. Never let the class know that
you don't know, (you are not
a learner—you are a teacher.)
5. Learning takes place only
when there is order and quiet ;
or, conversely, learning takes
place only when there Is noise
and hubbub.
6. The teacher must be enthusiastic about his subject matter.
Amidon noted that it Is dishonest
to act. upon such assumptions. He
added that there is u real need for
action research to test these assumptions, an d went on t o ci te
some of the studies which have
been made concerning them.
In 1941, It was found that teachers who started out tough with
their classes were unable to become less tough. The students grew
to expect a certain amount of firmness and became lost when that

Klepto maniacs Plain At BSC,
Students Can Solve Mystery
At BSC t hs topic of book theft from the Library seems to arise every
year. Last year College Council spent a considerable amount of time
discussing this problem and appointed a committee to investigate the
problem. The committee returned an extensive report to remedy the
problem , but all measures seemed , in some way, too exhaustive to try
or it was felt that they would impair the efficiency of the library.
Book Thefts
At the last College Council meeting (October 12, 1964) the problem of book theft again reared' its ugly head. One member asked if
action could at least be taken on one part of the committee's report of
last year. Specifically the article asked for action to prevent book theft.
It was immediately pointed out that last year a new Viewfax Cop ier
had been purchased to make copies of maps, charts, etc. The cost to
the student is ten cents per sheet. Council felt that if students are aware
of the machine, the illegal taking of books may be minimized.
It was p.lso noted by Dean Hoch that when a student finds a book
missing, he should report it to the librarian as well as to the Dean of
Instruction in order that a rush order may be made to replace the copy.
Elimination of Theft
Thus , if these measures are followed book theft may be eliminated.
Here we are speaking of eliminating stealing when it should not
even exist in the first place. It is truly a shame that a college student
can be so dishonest as to steal anything.
How can anyone expect to go into our society and train young minds
in ethics when our own practices are not in the best of order?
It is hoped that this is the last time that book theft or any other theft
need be mentioned. Once again, however, we cannot indite the whole
student body. It is only the irresponsible small percentage which causes
these actions and the reprimands thus follow. Nevertheless, it is the
responsibility of every student to do his part in apprehending these
culprits of BSC.

Homecomi ng Than k You From M&G

The M&.G staff would like to take this opportunity to congratulate
and thank Mr. Scrimgeour, chairman of the Homecoming Committee,
and all others who endeavored to make our 1964 Homecoming and
Anniversary Week a success.
Few students will ever comprehend all of the behind-the-scenes
work and planning that paved the way for a smooth and efficien t succession of events which made up the past week.
If space would permit, we would like to list all the people who
worked so exhaustingly, but instead a mere general but sincere "Thank
you" will have to suffice.
Homecoming, 1964, will be long remembered and the M&G tips
its BSC Beanie in a salute to Mr. Scrimgeour and all who worked under
him.

Festivities Over; School R esumes

The big week was over. Homecoming 1964 was finia. The tux and
gown had been packed away until
the next big dance, the floats had
been built and torn down and the
game had been played and won. It
was a great week.
Back to Classes
Then , horror of horrors, everyone woke up to the' fact that there
were classes at BSC. The Monday
morning blues erased the autumn
colors of the campus. How to face
that horrible thought, homework
again.
No more excuses were left. No
more setting hair when there were
comps to do. Philosophy took over
the time reserved for strolls under
the harvest moon. All in all, the
BSC timetable was turned top-tobottom. And the students were on
the bottom.
It was like Sept. 16th all over
again! The bleary eyes, the where-

am-I-supposed-to-be now ? expression, the classic slump as one walks
into the lounge. However, the
hardy BSC student didn 't let it l ast
long.
The Day After
By today, everything is back to
normal ( ? ) . The bleary eyes, the
where-am-I-supposed — etc. etc. '.
But in spite of all the trauma experienced during and after Homecoming, there were many memories saved up for future years. The
formal dance, the big convocation ,
the Brothers Four, and Homecoming Day itself. True the crepe paper may have run and at least one
float collapsed, but the parade was
one of the best ever. And to "put
the icing on the 125th Anniversary
cake," the football team won and
the Saturday night dance added
the candles to make a real party of
the week.
It was a week to remember!

A Bit of Blarney;
My Friend Herk
Fixes Fall 's Face

by Judy Gere
Last night, much to my surprise,
my leprechaun escaped. Everyone
has seen what he did. So, I'd better
tell the full story.
You see, I have had this "creature"— oh, he will be so mad at
that word — Herk, sitting on my
shoulder for two years. This sprite
is always up to mischief. Remember the heavy snowfall last winter ? Mm huh ! Herk's work. He has
stuck with me through thick or
thin and rain or shine; most of
which he has caused.
Good Deed
At last, Herk, my naughty little
fellow, has done something good.
Last week, one dark night, he stole
out of my third floor window on a
gnome-like task. Taking with him
my make-up case, Herkmer decided to create a new face on everything.
With a military-like precision ,
the elfin figure moved throughout
the countryside. First of all, he
sprayed some Poplar trees with my
hair coloring. I must admit they
look better blond than I do. Some
he sprayed, others he just polished.
Secondly, Herk utilized my powder
and lightly frosted every plant,
lawn, and car within the area.
Then with the cream base and several hues of lipstick, the puck set
out on the third phase.
Tree Make-up
Ca refully, oh, so carefully he
colored each and every tree. Some
leaves he did in f ull, brili an t
shades and on others Herk tinted
j ust the outer edges. A little red
lipstick here and a little brown
make-up there and Herkmer was
almost finished. Just as morning
was dawning, he added his finishing touches. The brilliance my
leprechaun usually reserved for my
eyes, he gave to the sun instead.
With my eye shadow, he painted
the skies a beautiful blue and lined
each cloud with silver. Oh! I am so
proud of you, my dear little leprechaun.
One added little thing. Fellow
students, I have no control over
my little friend, Herkmer. So I do
not take any responsibilities for the
following: natural disasters, personal accidents , etc.

As you pass by the lobby, you can

This has caused a big change in

For instance, a male, Mr. X got

there was no way that he and his

There was no such thing as "co-ed

The Vanished Art Of Compliments;
Byron's Bait Blase At Bloomsbure

What is considered a compliment
today ?
"Your eyes sparkle like two
bright sapphires set on a white velvet cloth; your hair is likened unto
a fiery sunset, while it and your
beauty are immortal; your teeth
..." Is this "Modern " flattery ?
Almost every girl dreams of a
day when a man will praise her
beauty, grace and intelligence. As
the dream progresses, she sees, in
her mind's eye, a romantic setting,
and there he will sing forth her—
But wait! Compliments are said to
be extinct and if they 'aren't, they
are crudely constructed. Now what
do we do about the day dream ?
Whistles, Frien ds, Horns
Wolf whistles, silent friends,
truck horns and wow!—aren 't they
compliments . At first glance, they
seem rather trite and crude. But in
today's world of fast, faster and
fastest, they j ust might fit.
Take a wolf-whistle... is it from
a hood or a gentleman ? How does
a girl react when she is the obj ect
of such a compliment ? Or is it an
insult? !Observe.. .(wolf whistle)
... Although she doesn't turn
around, the subje ct is now smiling
and standing a bit taller. So therefore a wolf-whistle must be a compliment.

appearance ? It is one of the best
and most genuine compliments of
this century ! If a girl can so alter
her appearance, as when she puts
on a long gown, and older acquaintances are speechless ... well then
for once the phvases of Lord Byron
are overwhelmed and a queen like
stance is hers.
When fame, beauty and wealth
come in her grasp, what type of a
compliment can be issued? A famous model nee film star in New
York used to set up her standards
so: if during the walk to work, she
would hear ten or more truckers
honking at her, she would know
her beauty was not diminishing.
She felt G-R-E-A-T the rest of the
day. So, if this woman, who is one
of the real beauties of this modern
age, prefers the admiring glances
of a stranger, the horn s must bo

Wow — a single word. It is much
too small to be classified alongside
of the compliments of Lord Byron.
But coming from the right person,
"Wow!" is as meaningful and beautifu l as any word from the lips of
Don Juan.
Compliments of today are a little
less prolific . The terms are not as
polished in the poetic beauty of
their phrasing and smaller in quantity and rhetoric. But , they are not
lacking in quality. If a compliment
is a single word, or immortal words

The Biggest And
Smallest At BSC

by John Martin
Last Saturday was a momentous
occasion for the Bloomsburg football team , its coaches and its fans ,
for last Saturday Bloomsburg won
its first game of the season. But
this is not a new story, because for
the past couple years, BSC has had
a reason to have a momentous occasion. Our seasons, for the most
pa rt , have not been too rewarding
or winning. This wli m ost likely
bo the story again this year.

Now, however, with increased
the Huskies are starting to develop. This is mainly
through the efforts of our Freshman team. In reality, the va rsity
are the fellows who played last
year only minus last year's seniors.
This means that this year's squad
is playing with less than it had last
y ear, and it won't be until next
season that the blending of freshmen will come about. Until then
we can only hope for the best.

In their first two games of the
season, the Frosh, under Coach
Wilwohl, have looked extremely
good. A strong finish against Kutztown, after dropping the season 's
opener to Shippensburg, evened
their record at 1-1. Both games
have revealed some up-and-coming
ball players with a lot of promise
who should have a future in the
game. Next year, if things go right,
thi s promise should pay off in wins.
Of course this is a long way off, and
we still have this season to finish.

Mr. Small and Mr. Big:
Bloomsburg State College has
the distinction of having one of the
smallest football players in PSCAC
as well as one of the biggest players in the PSCAC, the smallest being Robert Opie and the largest bein g Willi am "Hoagie" Herrold.
Mr. Small
Robert Opie, stands at 5'8" and
weighs 130 pounds is presently
quarterbacking the Huskies. Opie
is a sophomore in the mathematics
curriculum. He is a graduate of
Coa] Twp, High School, where he
played football against Hoagie
Herrold.
Mr. Big
Hoagie Herrold, a freshman,
from Shamokin, is by far one of the
largest men playing football in
Pennsylvania. Herrold is 6'5" and
tips the scales at 298 pounds. He is
in social studies and also plans to
wrestle for BSC. By the way, this
young man is only 17 years of age.
Ironically enough these two men
played football on different sides
of the line during high school, Herrold, a tackle for Shamokin, and
Opie a quarterback for Coal Twp.
Hoagie stated "I think it's great"
when he was asked what he
thought about ex-enemies playing
for the same team.
