Sfwi il ^lrf Stan Kuchars kl, former Husky football star , has recently signed a contract with the , championship Green Bay Packers. Stan, who graduated in January and is pre sently teaching at M anville, N.J ., decided on the Packers after considering offers from St. Louis , Oakland , Atlanta and Cleveland. Havin g narrowed the field down to Oakland and Green Bay, lie conferred with Bob Schnelker of Green Bay and Roy Schleicher , chief scout on the east coast for Oakland , Stan picked the Packers. ACCEPTS $1, 500 BONUS He did so after Oakland failed to match the Packers ' offer. It has been reported that Stan will receive a $1,500 bonus immediately upon signing the Pack er contract. In addition , he is almost guaranteed of playing against the College All-Stars this summer. This will net him an extra $ 500. Stan, who was fated for a record-setting season last fall , was also f ate d to fore go the league fam e when he suffered a leg injury (later resultin g in an operation) in the first play from scr imma ge in t he fourth game of the season against Susque hanna. WANTED AS A FLANKER Green Bay has expressed an interest in Stan as a flanker ; he is also adept at playing defensive back positions. P r ior to Stan 's injury during the Susquehanna game , he. had been leading the NAIA scoring and pass receiving. He had scored a very comfortable 64 points in the three games he played. Stan 's injury against Susquehanna came on the first play when Dick Lichtel (who has also been considered for pro contracts) passed out in the flat , where Stan raced to the 40 yard line, only to be hit at a fate fully bad angle and downed for the season. The play was called back because of an illegal pro cedure penalty against Bloom. SHIPPENSBURG BEST GAME Stan conside rs his best game to have been t he opener against Shippensburg, where he caught four touc hd own passes, picking up a total of 184 yards , pulling Bloom to a 31-20 victory that starte d the H us kies on a ver y winning season. In the same game Stan made 14 tackles while playing defense at safety. Coach Rus s Houck summed up Stan as: " ...the top two-way performer on the team. He has an exceptional pair of hands and plays the defens ive half-b a' ck post like a pro. " Coach Houck was never more prophetic. -' Should Stan fail to make the Packers as a flanker he may be used in the defensive backfield. Whatever the position ,* Stan-has the Lichtel philosophy for football: You've got to love it to do it well. And Stan 's the man to do the job. .

This is "The Diary of Anne Frank " , a ' young Jewish girl 's day-to-day record of a fearful , tedious and yet also happy and hopeful two year s of concealment in an attic with her family in the hope of escaping Nazi arrest. When the diary was first published in 1952 , it seized considerable attention.

Perhaps one of the things that keeps people from giving is the dread of the pain involved. Perhaps it is the apprehension that the process will take a great deal of time uid energy from their already busy schedule. Perhaps there have been a great many misconceptions about the entire Bloodmobile visit. And perhaps we can clue you in to the simplicity—and the benefits—of • it all. day of the visit. When the day comes around you just casually bop into the gym at your appointed time and walk up to a table, get a card filled out and go to a nurse, who takes your temperature. After that you get you blood pressure taken, receive a rundown on past illnesses, etc., and have your .blood checked for iron content (which is the most painful operation of the entire visit).* This amounts to a thorough physical examination,* which doesn't cost you a cent. After that you are lead to a table where you comfortably recline, while a nurse (young or old, depending on your luck that day) arranges you, washes your arm on the spot where the pint will be taken fro m, and lets you play with a stick, which assures circulation while the blood is being taken. After it is all over, you get cookies and juice or coffee, and you are again turned loose on the public. Easy. Nothing to it, really. THE . REFUND And what do you get? A blood donors* pin, a pint to your credit (and your family's) should you ever need it, and a few pints of satisfaction. These days satisfaction is a pretty valuable thing. And there's w easier way to get it. i is exactly what happened to me. I was in Montgomery county and assigned to Danville for the second nine. About thre e quarters of the way through the first nine weeks, after I had completed plans for living during the second nine, I received a letter saying that I had been changed to the same area again. The note was put into my college mailbox instead of sending it direct. As a result I received the note a whole two weeks after it was put there. I was never asked if the change was alright; I was simply told it was effected. One full day before my second nine weeks I was able to find new housing. The information and idea? that follow are , of course, limited to my ' experience and other student teachers with whom I have talked. For those who have not yet experienced "student teaching", I would fmagine that those two words spoken even quite softly could bring a startled and apprehensive gulp to one 's throat. It's quite natural , because student teaching is a pretty radical change , even more so, then entering college from high school. PHONY EXPERIENCES. t There are many things wrong with the present system and there are some pertinent points about this phoniest of experiences, which I feel should be brought to the attention of the expectant student teacher. Perhaps they will be better able to cope with them , or Ideally, the student teacher co-ordinators will realize the faults and try to change them. Like everything else the regimentation and stereotyping begin with the index or IBM card . Beware! If one requests the Bloomsburg area , as most will , his work is cut out for him. The question asking for reasons to get considerations is most important. Remember the coordinators of student teaching are practically deaf to reason. There are , of course , several considerations which follow. Marriage is almost safe . Perhaps an invented spouse will serve the purpose , which may not be absurd as it sounds. Finances are another angle , but it must be big. Extra-curricular activities may help . How ever , this year even the treasurer of the CGA was sent to Montgomery county. Health is the next , but it must be gory and plenty bloody. Four words summarize the key to argumentation . Be PERSISTENE , make it BIG and BOLD and add some SENTIMENTALITY. can be made at any time.

Can one expect a difference between a 70 year old , oldmaid in Danville and a 28 yearold bachelor in Philadelphia?Now I have criticized, but I also have solutions; • I. The student teaching semester should be divided into three periods of six weeks each .' I think being at two different schools is very valuable. Therefore , there would be three the first 12 weeks at two different schools and take the educational bl.ock course in the third six weeks. Group two would take two six weeks periods of student teaching broken up by the educational courses period.- And the third group would take the educational course first. I figure that all the educational courses (including Ed Psych) could be combined into one 6 to 8 credit course meeting 2 or 3 hours a day for 6 weeks. I believe this is just about the ideal situation . Then we could get not only a full student teaching experience but also some meaningful courses like foreign language, or perhaps some , humanities courses or'subj ect matter courses. PRACTICUM II. Practicum and all that ridiculous paper work should be dropped (It will , I understand, in the near future so that (1) the student can spend more time on teaching and (2) so the college supervisor may attend more of his classes to better evaluate and help him. III . Since grades for student teaching are so arbitrary they should be dropped in favor of a "satisfactory " or "unsatisfactory " grade. The general "S" or "U" would be derived from the two co-ops and the two supervisors. The evaluation forms of one out of the four that may be adverse would then stand out. (Therefore , one grade is student teaching worth 10 or 12 credits for a total of 12 weeks*) The evaluation form would then take more meaning and also keep the student teacher honest. The "S" or "U" would not figure into the cumulative average . This would release much pressure and . allow one to be more of a professional teacher instead of a subject seeking a grade. During a lecture in geogra phy at Northwest Missouri State C ollege, the professor was explaining that the term "bac kwar d" is no longer used when descr ibi n g the economy of a pri mitive state . In order to avoid hurt ing -the pride of such countries , the term "under developed" is considered pref erable. Looking around the lecture hall , he saw one student who didn 't seem to understand the psycho logical implications of the two words . " Well , Miss Turner ," he asked , " which would you rather be — underdevelo ped or bac kwar d ?" Her quick reply to the red-fac ed professor: "Backwar d , sir! " Reader 's Digest (Oct.
