Excellent Teamwork Displayed
by Normal Girls Gives
Them Victory
That the C. S. N. S. girls had it all
over the Clearfield girls in the matter
of basketball was shown by the 1,1-0
score at the end of the first quarter,
when these two teams met in the Clearfield cage, March 7. The Clearflelders,
who equaled the Normal team in size,
were surpassed when it came to rolling
baskets. Although the latter team was
at a disadvantage in playing on a floor
one-third as large as their own school
floor, they quickly managed to "adjust
tlieniselves to the situation," and so
judged their throws quite accurately.
In the second ciuarter, when one ot
the home team's forwards made the first
basket for her side, the Normalites were
so surprised at the burst of cheering
coming from the side lines that they
seemed paralyzed, and allowed their opponents to succeed in neatly landing several baskets. The G. S. N. S. team,
who were ou the much bigger end of the
score, thought tliey could .afford to take
a rest during tlie remainder of the game
—whieh they did. When the referee signaled the end of the game, they were
almost surprised to see that Clearfield
had made twenty-three points in the last
three quarters—the score being 29-2.1 in
favor, however, of the visiting team.
The Clearfield team did some mighty
fine pass work, but bad luck seemed to
smile on their forwards when they
threw for baskets. The ball would roll
around the rim, but would not drop
through the basket. From the first the
game was rather one-sided, and the final
score had the Clearfield team nearer
their opponents than at any other point
in the game.

Mr. Drum Speaks in Chapel
The first responsibilit.v of the teacher
is to the school in which she is teaching.
This begins wlien she takes her position,
and should be definite and understood.
To whatever duty she is assigned, the
teacher must employ cheerfully and willingl.y, and without question. Her tasks
may be varied. Perhaps the principal
of the school will ask her to teach a
demonstration lesson.
Sho may not
know the motive beliind the request,
but nevertheless, slie must respond. It
might be that her ability prompted
the request, or it might be a test of her
ability.
Anotiier jjliase of this question is a
teacher's criticism of fellow workers.
This fault is probably universal. It is
very easy to judge another, but one must
be very careful. Usually the standing
of the other fellow falls below tliat of
oneself. Self-measured success is not a
true measure. It is the principal's duty
to do the measuring and not tlie teacher's.
'i'he second responsibility of the teacher is to tho community in which she is
teacldiig.
From here she draws her
.salary and she owes something in return.
She should remember not to
criticise this community if she wants
the co-operation of the parents of her
pupils. A Parent-Teacher's Association,
in a small community, is not made up of
wealthy people, but it is willing to help
strive for those things which are needed to better the school.

.\ teacher should interest herself in
something besides her work as such. By
broadenin;' out and showing the people
what she really is, .she comes nearer to
them and they realize her interest in
them. Oftentimes the parents come in
closer contact with the teacher than
the principal, and if she is reall.y
worth it, there is where she will get

Probability of Baseball Team
It is very likely that tho Maroon and
Grey will be represented on the diamond
this spring. Although at present they
are very much interested in basketball
Mr. Drum, Mr. Sullivan and the boys are
looking forward to the coming baseball
season. Many of the fellows have played
before coming to C. S. N. S. and with a
certain amount of good coaching, they
ought to be rounded into a fair team.
At a ineeting held in the Y. M. C. A.
rooms on March 14, it was recommended
that Mr. Wolf, of the Community Service Club, should bo asked to coach
the team.
At this meeting Jack Follmer was
unanimously elected manager. Ho has
received many letters from other schools
who wish games, and he hopes to have
ten arranged for after tho Easter holidays.

The girls of the dorm have gone in

Dan McGrew Comes to Life
Chapel exercises on Friday, March 7,
were conducted by Donald Glossner.
Duo to the illness of Miss Jackson, the
exercises for t h a t particular morning
were postponed until a later date, and
Don substituted by reading some of
Robert Service's poems.
The remark was heard to the effect
that, "Our Don's the bugs, isn't he?"
a n d "He's good at it, isn't h e ? " (Of
course you can interpret the first remark to suit yourself, Don).
To go on with the program: He read
"The Log Cabin," and the "Man That
Didn't Fit in." Both these poems were
given in a manner that compelled attention, but—when he brought the weather
beaten stool, and sat close to the footlights, and read the "Shootin' of Dan
McGrew" the shivers ran up and down
one's spine. We could see the old saloon,
the drunken man at the piano with his
shirt stiff with dirt, the crashing chords
of the music.

visit was instructive as well as interesting.
One of the most discussed questions
brought up was, "Is it necessary to believe everything in the Bible in order
to be a Christian?" The conclusion
finally reached was that "The Bible reflects truth of Christianity and not
facts." "Christianity comes from contact with people and inner contact with
God."

Value of Magazine Reading

The magazine liabit is one of the most
useful and enjoyable one we may cultivate. It affords recreation and an opliortiiuity for increasing and broadening
our knowledge of things which are taking place about us. From the long list
of magazines which come into the school
library, there can easily be found ono
suited to our particular taste and needs.
In this brief review only a general idea
of the material is given.
In the December issue of the Popular
Educator there is an article "Saving
Time for the Teacher." Many time wasting jiractises are cited, and suggestions
for remedying them are offered.
The
material found here may be of interest,
uot onl.v to the student teacher, but also
to the students of Introduction to Teaching.
Tho Greatest Little Book in tho World,

What is the greatest little book in

mind, lies in the fact that it makes
every one who reads it want to make the
world a little better. I t is widely read

Prohibition under the Spoils System,
by Williain Dudley Poulkc in "Current
History" for December, 1923.
According to William Dudley J.
Foulke, president of the National Civil
Service Reform League, the lack of enforcement of the Volstead Act is due, in
a large measure, to the Spoils System.
Appointinents, he says, have been secured through political influence rather
than through merit. The remedy is a
complete reorganization with Civil Service tests for qualifications to be applied to every office from the highest to
the lowest.

Mah-Jongg
Several of the celebrities around the
dorm have taken up Mah-Jongg. A little
birdie sitting on Dot Lynd's window sill
overheard one of these sessions, and de
cided that the party was composed of
cute dumbells, giggles, and pugilists.
"Barney Google" evidently associates
dragons with alligators because every
once in awhile she would sling out a
"pasteboard" (that's the truth) and yell
"Red Alligator!"
Ruth Langsford has an affinity for
"winds." She held to hers gleefully.
Great were the rejoicings thereof whenever she drew one.
Dot Savage couldn't remember when
to call "Pung," "shaw," or "cong"—so
sho called all three every time to be
sure she'd get the right one.
Helen Blackburn tried to learn, but
she was interrupted so many times by
telephone calls from "Al" that she finally gave up.
And then—the lights went out.

Normal Students Speak at
Mill Hall
The question of introducing tho story
hour into the Mill Hall schools was discussed at a meeting of the Mill Hall
Parent-Teachers' Association on March 8.
Elverda Richardson spoke on the

Marion Wilson told the story of the

The children of the second and third
grades of the Mill Hall school presented
a short program of recitations and songs.

"Adventures of Mike Smoke"
Mike Smoke went out to Mr. Ulmer's
corn field and iu liis leisurely fashion,
hurriedly picked a bouquet of carrots
for Miss Love. He looked carefully
down, up and over the street before
crossing it backwards, walking slowly
forward with his eyes shut. Then pausing at the Normal steps, without the
slightest hesitancy.
Carl Schrot, the lawyer, who was sitting in the library window staring out
the door, looked up with a downward
glance as Mike Smoke, shyly approached
him. "I've come for your decision," said
Mike. If tlio salt could shaker, would

Deep furrows ploughed along the illegal man's smooth, clean but dirty face.

school spirit to the life of that couiniuuit.v. Our thread should be unbreakable; is it? It is every student's duty

When there is a ba.sketball game, do

Surel.y, you don't want the
opposing team to think that we are so
dainty and dignified that wo can't raise

Don't J'OU think a mass meeting before every game would act as a stimulant? Not only do we need the sup|jort of the student bod.y, but also we

"1 would look much better if the person who made me would have put less

jar over there? Well, since she began
making dresses for us dolls that paste
sure has disappeared."
"Don't you wish some of these girls
would do what this Miss Yale, they talk
about, tells them."
"I wonder who she i s ? "
"My, that old book's pressing me
down."
"Say, isn't this room topsy-turvy,
though? Don't they ever clean this
place? I'm afraid I'll spoil my evening

girl that designed me? I wonder if she
thinks she can wear me? Oh, well, I

Altoona Team Surpasses
C. S. N. S.
"Tired?
No wonder after pla.ving
that game at Clearfield last night." Thus
remarked one of the spectators at the
Altoonji-C. S. N. S. game, which came
oflf Miirch 8. The Normal team agreed
to the fatigue part and they certainly
did not register the "pep" of their other
games.
However it was not the condition of
the team iilone that was responsible for
the walloping they received from the
liands of the Altoona six.
The winning team surely did fling a -wicked
basketball. From the start of the game
they had the visiting team on the run
with no noticeable good results for the
latter.
The home team displayed a
fine type of basketball.
Their pass
work was excellent (being too fast for
the other team), and the basket seemed
to draw the ball to it like a fly to molasses. That ball just couldn't go anywhere but into the basket, no matter if
the forward stood five or twenty-five
feet away from i t !
Central State Normal's case was slightly different, as the ball avoided the basket as you do a skunk or a plague. Our
star shooters were out of luck—pure aud
simple—the ball went galloping to the
rim and just as gaily galloped oflf again,
but on the outside of the basket. No
amount of hard work on the part of tho
participants could prevail against that
touch of fate. This accounted for tho
score being S7-19.
The only casualty occurring during
the game was when Cleona Coppersmith
was unfortunate enough to turn her
ankle, which put her out for part of
the game.

Tie Game Proves a Thriller
Our girls' basketball team went to
wage battle with the Philipsburg six on
t h e latter's floor, Friday, March 14. The
entire game was fast and furious—flrst
one side leading in the scoring, and then
the other. Both teams used good pass
work.
Although our girls were more
experienced the constant training which
the Philipsburg girls have had, together
with the fact that they were playing on
their home floor, made them an even
match for our team. Neither team was
able to accomplish much because of the
active interference of the other.
On
tho whole the game was a good peppy
one and seemed to thrill the spectators.
When the final score of 14-14 was announced both sides wanted to play oflf
