Freshman Violators to Stand
Before Kangaroo Court Tonight
W h a f s the plight of the
new freshmen?
Tonight's Kangaroo Court
should tell the story of the violators, but as far as the Eagle
Wing is concerned, little knowledge of incoming FRESHMEN
is available. Maybe no new
FRESHMEN arrived?
Never
fear Eagle Wing, the FRESHMEN have arrived. The reason
that you have had few FROSH
cigarette ashes on your humble
floors is that many FRESHMEN
have been staying out of the
campus limelite in order to keep
them^elvfes from being hazed
during this week of "FRESHMEN CUSTOMS." Awaiting
those FROSH who ignore rules
set down in the Compass is a
fate worse than death. Kangaroo
Court.
On the whole, this is a fine
group of incoming students.
They have learned to adapt
themselves to many ridiculous
situations and to college life in
general . . .
One of the more stultifying
events occurred on the first day
of hazing when a group of upperclassmen cornered a FROSH
boy. They asked him to kindly
step to the podium and sing the
Alma Mater. The podium was
a trash receptacle in social
square.
Upon finishing his
meanial task, this FROSH was
coerced into singing "The Rebel
Flag." This student was unaware that the Johnny Yuma of
Lock Haven State, Rick Clifton, was present among his
group of antagonizers.
Rick
made the rather blunt point to
this FRESHMAN that the Confederate flag was not to be made
fun of by means of this song.
Freshman Customs Week is
not a symbol of antagonistic
pleasure to the upper class students; although in this week of
hazing, it may have seemed to
be the case.
F r e s h m a n Customs Week
serves a four-fold purpose. 1.
It serves to acquaint new students with the college campus.
2. It serves to acquaint new
students with upper class students. 3. It serves as an ice
breaker for the new students in
their environment. 4. It serves
to acquaint the new students
with rules of the school, school
faculty, and student organizations. These are the true purposes of Freshman Customs
Week, honestly FROSH.
Missy Witmar complains of
an incident where she was forced
to propose to an upperclassman.
The only thing that Missy fails
to relate is that the proposal was
a punishment for sticking her
tongue out at an upperclassman.
All incoming FROSH were
told that, during Customs Week,
they must carry on their person,
change for a quarter, a book of
matches, a magic marker pencil,
a Compass, a dink, and name
cards, during the hours of eight
o'clock in the morning and five
o'clock in the afternoon.
Those of you who received demerits for misconduct and
failure to comply with school
regulation d u r i n g Freshman
Customs Week are in for quite
a surprise tonight in Kangaroo
Court. Kenny O'Neal, sophomore class president, has quite
a few terrible sentences to pass
upon FROSH violators of rules.

Fun Erupts During Customs
"Freshman customs are a
blast!" So said frosh Pat Dougherty whose opinion reflects the
feelings of most new freshmen.
George "Gaf Bol" Taylor said
"customs crack me u p ! " while
Paida Stetts said she felt that
customs are helping her to become acquainted with the college while having a lot of fun.
The general feeling among the
new class is that customs are
much fun and do help acquaint
them with the uperclassmen,
familiarize them with the administration, fraternities, sororities, other organizations and
facts about the campus.
Sophomores, now that they
are on the other end of hazing,
indicate that this year's program is far better than last
year's. This is so, most said.
Barbara Walsh and Beverly Ohl select their blazers and caps
with the assistance of John I. Schwarz, director.

Band Gets New
Blazer Uniforms
Forty-five new blazer uniforms arrived last week to give
the Maroon and Gray musicians
a "new look" for the college
band. Complete with trousers,
skirts. Ivy League blazers, ties,
turtle-neck dickeys and tammies, the new attire will push
the military-style into cold storage.
The band is now campaigning
to fill all the new uniforms with
capable musicians from the
freshman and sophomore classes.
Present members of the band are
confident that a full complement will be available for the
first home football game. They
also think that the new uniforms
will add interest to the band.

Most of the band members
said they felt the "new look"
would be a great asset to the
band's appearance and would
interest instrumentalists on campus into joining the group.
Members
seem
optimistic
about a good year for the band.
Doubtlessly, the new uniforms
have had much to do with their
optimism.
Students interested in using
their high school band training
are urged to contact any of the

I was alone. There was peace
and quiet — no noise — just
quiet.

could be seen or heard anywhere.
J u s t stillness and peace roamed

I found a hotel during the

In
the hotel restaurant, I found
two things: in the kitchen coldlocker there were all kinds of

STATE COLLEGE, LOCK H A V E N , PA.
Freshman Violators to Stand
Before Kangaroo Court Tonight
W h a f s the plight of the
new freshmen?
Tonight's Kangaroo Court
should tell the story of the violators, but as far as the Eagle
Wing is concerned, little knowledge of incoming FRESHMEN
is available. Maybe no new
FRESHMEN arrived?
Never
fear Eagle Wing, the FRESHMEN have arrived. The reason
that you have had few FROSH
cigarette ashes on your humble
floors is that many FRESHMEN
have been staying out of the
campus limelite in order to keep
them^elvfes from being hazed
during this week of "FRESHMEN CUSTOMS." Awaiting
those FROSH who ignore rules
set down in the Compass is a
fate worse than death. Kangaroo
Court.
On the whole, this is a fine
group of incoming students.
They have learned to adapt
themselves to many ridiculous
situations and to college life in
general . . .
One of the more stultifying
events occurred on the first day
of hazing when a group of upperclassmen cornered a FROSH
boy. They asked him to kindly
step to the podium and sing the
Alma Mater. The podium was
a trash receptacle in social
square.
Upon finishing his
meanial task, this FROSH was
coerced into singing "The Rebel
Flag." This student was unaware that the Johnny Yuma of
Lock Haven State, Rick Clifton, was present among his
group of antagonizers.
Rick
made the rather blunt point to
this FRESHMAN that the Confederate flag was not to be made
fun of by means of this song.
Freshman Customs Week is
not a symbol of antagonistic
pleasure to the upper class students; although in this week of
hazing, it may have seemed to
be the case.
F r e s h m a n Customs Week
serves a four-fold purpose. 1.
It serves to acquaint new students with the college campus.
2. It serves to acquaint new
students with upper class students. 3. It serves as an ice
breaker for the new students in
their environment. 4. It serves
to acquaint the new students
with rules of the school, school
faculty, and student organizations. These are the true purposes of Freshman Customs
Week, honestly FROSH.
Missy Witmar complains of
an incident where she was forced
to propose to an upperclassman.
The only thing that Missy fails
to relate is that the proposal was
a punishment for sticking her
tongue out at an upperclassman.
All incoming FROSH were
told that, during Customs Week,
they must carry on their person,
change for a quarter, a book of
matches, a magic marker pencil,
a Compass, a dink, and name
cards, during the hours of eight
o'clock in the morning and five
o'clock in the afternoon.
Those of you who received demerits for misconduct and
failure to comply with school
regulation d u r i n g Freshman
Customs Week are in for quite
a surprise tonight in Kangaroo
Court. Kenny O'Neal, sophomore class president, has quite
a few terrible sentences to pass
upon FROSH violators of rules.

Fun Erupts During Customs
"Freshman customs are a
blast!" So said frosh Pat Dougherty whose opinion reflects the
feelings of most new freshmen.
George "Gaf Bol" Taylor said
"customs crack me u p ! " while
Paida Stetts said she felt that
customs are helping her to become acquainted with the college while having a lot of fun.
The general feeling among the
new class is that customs are
much fun and do help acquaint
them with the uperclassmen,
familiarize them with the administration, fraternities, sororities, other organizations and
facts about the campus.
Sophomores, now that they
are on the other end of hazing,
indicate that this year's program is far better than last
year's. This is so, most said.
Barbara Walsh and Beverly Ohl select their blazers and caps
with the assistance of John I. Schwarz, director.

Band Gets New
Blazer Uniforms
Forty-five new blazer uniforms arrived last week to give
the Maroon and Gray musicians
a "new look" for the college
band. Complete with trousers,
skirts. Ivy League blazers, ties,
turtle-neck dickeys and tammies, the new attire will push
the military-style into cold storage.
The band is now campaigning
to fill all the new uniforms with
capable musicians from the
freshman and sophomore classes.
Present members of the band are
confident that a full complement will be available for the
first home football game. They
also think that the new uniforms
will add interest to the band.

Most of the band members
said they felt the "new look"
would be a great asset to the
band's appearance and would
interest instrumentalists on campus into joining the group.
Members
seem
optimistic
about a good year for the band.
Doubtlessly, the new uniforms
have had much to do with their
optimism.
Students interested in using
their high school band training

the cultural heritage of yesterday to the children of today, I forge one link in the giant
chain planned by the Creator.
I teach because I have been taught.
In my
roster,
unforgettable
people are teachers who opened new vistas to
mc and influenced my entire life.
If I can impart to my
students a portion of the kindness, understanding,
wisdom
and joy granted to me, then my debt to humanity
will be
paid.
I teach because I love children — their freckled
faces,
jumbled jargon, lilting laughter, and incessant inquiries.
I
believe in the innate goodness of all children.
I know that
latent genius exists in some.
As a teacher, I may discover
this pearl of genius, remove it from its shell and polish it
into a gem of rare brilliance.
Each child is important.
I believe in this and all
other principles of democracy — a way of life in which
each child has an opportunity
to discover himself
fully
and become a useful member of society — a system in
which teachers are free to teach the truth — a plan that
shall eventually
become universal.
In this society,
education is the hub.
Ignorance enslaves while truth liberates.
I teach to
dispel darkness with a shaft of light, that tomorrow
all
people may experience the exhilaration
of freedom
and
peace on earth.

A short story
by Susan Earhart
The Cify
I was alone. There was peace
and quiet — no noise — just
quiet.
N o English sparrows
could be seen or heard anywhere.
J u s t stillness and peace roamed

were hushed and the city was
holding its breath. N o rumble
of automobiles or buses could be
detected — just stillness. Every
street was speechless.

My stomach h u r t and then I remembered t h a t I had not eaten
since yesterday.
"Yesterday,
last week, last year, what does it
matter?"
I found a hotel during the
search for food, which had an
emergency electric supply.
In
the hotel restaurant, I found
two things: in the kitchen coldlocker there were all kinds of
meats; there was also the frozen
body of the chef! I shrieked at
this sight, and moved slowly t o ward him. Like a stunned b u t
