He solved the problem five years ago on

his arrival in Bloomsburg, but now that he
has graduated and has accepted an appointment with the United Nations, he
again has to decide what to do with his
unconventional pet
Eric first came to the area in 1973 with
the hope of bringing Schmedley with him
Since most Americans have the im-

pression that gorillas are mean, vicious
animals, the thought of one living nearby
wasn't acceptable
When Eric's
sponsoring American family in Mansfield
heard of his dilemma, they found someone
to "gorilla sit" while the young African
completed his education.
Of course. Schmedley isn't the gorilla's
real name, it's just easier to pronounce
than his African one, Nyame Bekyere,
just

which

means

"God

will

provide

providence " Eric says that gorillas are
common pets in his homeland, and he was
very sad when Schmedley couldn't be with
him.
When Eric arrived in America, he had a
government scholarship to Drexel
University which was cancelled due to a
military take-over in Ghana. Through his
American family, he enrolled at BSC and
later was again granted a scholarship at
Drexel but elected to stay at Bloomsburg
His government approved, and now Eric
will be fulfilling a nine-month obligation to
his home officials through his appointment

His position will involve
traveling to his homeland and throughout
the world Since he won't be starling his

until April.

Eric hopes to

do some sightseeing in Japan, Australia,
Greece and Midwestern United States.
Eric's gorilla problems may have upset
him when he first came to BSC, but once
here, he made up his depression through
numerous activities. Eric wrote a column
for a few years in the college's Campus
Voice newspaper entitled. "Nkombodzi."
Topics included the African marriage
customs, puberty and the way of life It
also provided him with a great deal of
practice in writing English, which now has
become his dominant language. As a
member of the Lambda Chi Alpha
fraternity, he has found college fraternity
life rewarding
"Americans at BSC are
•beautiful people. " he comments.
Eric is probably best remembered for
his performance on BSC'S varsity soccer
team Since soccer is the number one sport
in Africa, he was very skilled in "the
booting sport and passed his knowledge on
to his teammates He said that in Africa
the sport is only competitive at the
national level, not

in the

high schools and

He also mentioned that the
roughness of the sport bothered him when
playing at BSC
Eric has not been back to his homeland
in five years and is somewhat concerned
about the cultural problems he'll have to
face when he returns After living in
America for so long, he has forgotten a
great deal of his language and has changed
his views on many African customs. For
instance, in Ghana it is normal for men to
express affection for each other through
holding hands or kissing in public Eric
said he has become "Americanized" in
that respect and will find it hard to accept

The
Part One of Four

By Katherine Little Bakeless
John Edwin Bakeless was born
December 30, 1894, at Carlisle Barracks,
Carlisle, Pennsylvania. He was the son of
Oscar Hugh Bakeless and Sara Harvey
Bakeless. Carlisle Barracks was at that
time used by the Carlisle Indian Industrial
School, commanded by Colonel Richard H
Pratt, U.S. Cavalry.
Professor

O

H. Bakeless

was academic

head

of the school, concerned with the
usual common school subjects, which were
taught by a large staff, and more ad-

vanced academic instruction, which approximated the Junior high school level
Promising Indian students were at that
time placed in country schools, high
schools, and normal schools, living with
white families and acquiring white ways.
The white homes in which they lived were
kept under inspection by members of the
school staff. Some of these students later
went on to college and to graduate
degrees.
The Bakeless family school physicians
were Carlos Montezuma, M.D., a full-

blooded Apache, and Charles A. Eastman,

M

D a half-breed Sioux. Dr. Eastman,
writing under his Sioux name, "Ohiyesa,"
was a well-known and successful author.
,

John Bakeless had as nurses an Oneida
girl and a Seminole girl His early
playmates were almost entirely Indian,
but there was always at least one other
white boy on the post. Not having any
Indian blood himself, John could not attend the school, and was tutored by his
Indian

mother, formerly a

critic

teacher

in the

Bloomsburg State Normal School (BSNS),
now Bloomsburg State College.

When he was

eight years old, his father,

wanting him to have white playmates,
returned to BSNS, where he and his wife
had both taught before going to Carlisle In
1902. he became head of the department of
pedagogy and remained on the faculty
until his retirement in 1929 when he took
charge of the Alumni Room, a job he held
until his

death

in 1933.

John Bakeless grew up

the Model
School An avid reader as a boy, John
discovered the school library had a secret

entrance
an unlocked window through
which he often gained entrance when the
library

was closed.

In a letter to James B. Watts, formerly
BSC Archivist, John recalled exploring the
attics of the school's old buildings:

'

There

was

a slightly illegal entry, well known to
me and to the Adler boys (nephews of
Principal J. P. Welsh) and to no one else.
We had lots of fun roaming about and, as
we were not juvenile delinquents in any
sense, we did no harm and came to no
harm, but I well remember discovering
the big Class of 1905 wooden tiger and
making excellent use of it (by official
permission) when the Class of 1913, with
the same colors, also wanted a tiger.

Hartline.

During happy boyhood summers spent
at his Grandfather Harvey's in Milroy,
Pa., his Aunt Kate, also a school teacher,
taught him the flowers of the countryside.

Under these

influences, it was natural that
to be a biologist. But when he
was sixteen, the new English instructor at
BSNS, Miss Mary I. Ellis, entered his life

he wanted

Inspired by her teaching, he turned to
English literature for his chief study.
However, he could never desert the
butterflies, and I still have a collection of
Columbia County butterflies he mounted.
They are as brilliant as they were on the
wing in 1909 and during those summers of
this century's first decade. It is no wonder

that the butterfly was the ancient Greek
symbol for immortality.
The house that O H. Bakeless built at 595
East Third Street was then on the very
edge of town. In a few steps, young John
could be in the country or in the woods, and
he made the most of it. He climbed
Catawissa mountain; he went fishing and
camped out at night along Fishing Creek
with his boy friends. Much of his rambling
was solitary, though, during winters and
summers, often with his butterfly net.

Bakeless earned numerous academic
prizes while at Williams
Before
examination time he tutored students
individually and in groups and sometimes
had as many as forty pupils. Years later,
two or three men admitted they would
never have made it through college
without Bakeless; one would never admit
that he had had to be tutored!

Bigger bytes for computer
The most powerful and versatile central
processing unit in the state college system
is being installed in Ben Franklin When
work is completed in mid-summer, the
Computer Center will be utilizing a
UNI VAC 1100-21 computer with a main
memory storage of a million bytes
(Megabyte) or characters of information,
over four times the capacity of the
previous unit.
The UNIVAC is also four times larger in
on-line disk mass storage, can process
data four times faster, and will support 59
concurrent interactive users, providing
easier access and faster processing for the

institutions

it

will serve.

This new system is directly accessible
by both Center and remote terminals,
which will be set up throughout the college.
This development, which will eliminate
the need for punched cards, plus the faster
processing speed, will aid in both the
administrative and educational uses of the

computer The number

of seats available
can instantly be seen, and any
additions to the class can be typed immediately into the computer, producing a
change in the files which would appear on
all terminals, making information up to
in a class

date throughout the system. Dependence

on paper files would be reduced, as would
the need for their clerical maintenance.
Educationally, students would be exposed to the contemporary computer and
data processing technology of data based
system on-line inquiry, time sharing,
program development from a terminal,
and the process of working with
dynamically changing files.
Faculty working directly with the
computer will have increased time to use
computer assisted instructional material
(CAD such as tutorials, drills and
simulations to supplement classroom and
lab instruction.

missed a day of school at Bear Creek
Elementary School where she has
taught for the last 42 years except to
attend funerals for members of her
immediate family
"When I first started teaching in
1936, I taught eight grades in one
room." she said. "Then a four-room
school was finished by the WPA about
six months later, dedicated in Feb. 22,
1937, and we moved in I've been here

ever since," said Miss Kramer, who
retired at the end of the 1977-78

academic year.

"Oh, I've had an occasional cold,"
she said, "but they were never so bad
that I ever missed school."
Miss Kramer's first assignment, the
one-room school, was heated by a potbellied stove and lit by kerosene lanterns She kept a five-gallon crock full
of fresh spring water, she said, and the
"blackboards" in the front of the room
were made of pressed hardboard.

When Miss Kramer moved

to that

WPA four-room school six months
after she began teaching, there were
two grades in each room, she having
third and fourth. Over the years, Miss
Kramer watched the school grow and
she moved to the fifth and sixth grade
room. She taught only fifth grade in the
last years before retiring, and in recent

"I might stop in every once in a while
how things are going," she said.
In looking back over her long and
dedicated career, Miss Kramer said,
"If I have succeeded in inspiring any of
to see

my pupils to attain his or her goal and
if they are better citizens enjoying a
joyous and fruitful life for having
passed my way, then I feel I have
succeeded in my teaching."

meetings
canceled
Due to a series of unforeseen circumstances, it was necessary to cancel the
two alumni meetings scheduled in
February.
Red Garrity, '28, who was in charge of
arrangements for the South Florida Club
meeting was called to New Jersey due to
the sudden death of his brother In his
absence Irene Kiehl Konrad, '41, and
Jimmie Williams, 28. assumed the duties
for Red and made a prodigious effort to
complete the arrangements. In spite of
their efforts
the response did
not
guarantee the number required by the
club. Florida's mid season crush negated
any last ditch effort to change the location
and salvage the project.

Watts

was

hospitalized on Jan. 30 and could not make
the trip to Florida. Thus, with no other
representative from campus available and
three-quarters of the evening's program
planned around Mr. Watts, it was decided
to cancel both meetings.

The

response from the permanent
was overwhelming, but the interest from the Northern visitors was only
luke warm Many suggestions for next
year's meetings were offered and
everyone contacted expressed disappointment that Bloomsburg's get-together
could not be held this year.
Special thanks are extended to Red
Garrity and Gary Bogart and committee
members for their time and effort in
planning these meetings.

fascinating experience for a Bloomsburg State College group who toured
the Soviet Union in August 1978. The
tourists were met with the usual
propaganda against the Western World
andthe United States, in particular, but
veteran visitors among the group
agreed that it was no greater than in
recent years.

Directly in front of the Kremlin, on the

of the nation lies visable in a glass
coffin Lenin died in 1924 shortly after
coming to power, but his mark on the
country is undeniable. Everywhere one
goes in the country, his words or
likeness are never far away.

Each day thousands, join a line which
begins beside the Kremlin, winds along
the sidewalks past the Eternal Flame

to Red Square past Lenin's Tomb.

which seems inconsistant with the
atheistic policy of the Soviet Union.
Behind Lenin's Tomb are the graves
of several other Communist officials
including wartime leader Josef Stalin
who was entombed with Lenin
following his death in 1953 until
denounced two years later by Khrushchev. Other high ranking Communists

occupied by the Nazis during the

agenda included a cruise up the Don

A night flight from Rostov took the

Middle States accreditation

Favorable report
Bloomsburg State College hosted an
accreditation team from
the
Middle States Association of Colleges and
Secondary Schools April 1-4. The team's
exit report was favorable, and final accreditation is expected in a few months

official

time.

The college has been accredited by the
Association since 1950, and its last visit by
a team was in the Spring of 1969. The reaffirmation, if granted, would indicate an
expression of confidence by the
Association in the institution's present
performance and in its long-range ability
maintain and improve that performance.
According to Dr. James V Mitchell,
Vice President for Academic Affairs,

to

accreditation is valuable to both students
and the college. For students transferring
from one college to another, or applying to
another college for advanced degree work,
accreditation means that their credits are
more likely to be transferable. For the
institution, accreditation means that staff,
faculty and administration are effectively
meeting the goals they have established as
necessary to offer quality education to the
student body.

The association, through its Commission
Higher Education, re-affirms accreditation every ten years through the
use of a self-study program undertaken by
the institution seeking re-affirmation, a
review of the report compiled by the

of

and a visit by an accreditation
team. The initial contact with BSC was
made by Dr. Howard L Simmons,
Associate Director of the Commission, on
April 1, 1977. Since that time faculty, staff,
and administrators have been involved in
various aspects of the self study.

Sheep and glaciers
How far must an alumnus travel to find a
land where he can build an "ark" and
climb a glacier 9
For alumnus Rick B. Keller, '72, the
answer is "the smallest country with the
most" - New Zealand. What started as a
job became an adventure and, in Rick's
words, "an experience that has added to
the richness of my life."
Following

graduation from Johnson
in 1974, Rick accepted a
position in New Zealand as Associate
Minister and Youth Director for the
Associated Churches of Christ.
In October, 1974. he left for the "land

Describing the difference between U.S.

It was at this time that John applied for a

lacked. He always regretted not having

Predicts war
Dissatisfied with his hurried
manuscript, "Economic Causes of Modern
War," written his first year at Harvard,
John wrote "The Origin of the Next War,"
which was published in 1926.
Those who can remember the midtwenties

may

recall that the United States

and Western Europe had a severe attack of
pacifism. William Stevenson in "A Man
Called Intrepid," wrote "The times were
peculiar. Those who warned against the
threat of war were war mongers."

A devoted reader of history. John supported the Latin proverb, "Si vis pacem,
para bellum" — 'if you want peace,
prepare for war." "The Origin of the Next
War" created quite a stir and brought the
author considerable ridicule. It was like
Noah's being told there would be no more

demand for lectures and debates
. In
throughout the country, Bakeless~ placed
himself under the management of the
Feakins Lecture Bureau He and some of
the other lecturers jokingly referred to
themselves as "Feakins' Freaks."
Frequently, John was invited to dinner
parties by friends, who, I felt, wanted an
evening of lively discussion and argument
at his expense The abuse and ridicule hurt
him, and finally, he announced that he was
through with the "prophesying business,"
it was impossible to teach fools

At a garden party given by Lady Astor at

Macedonia had been

became

part of the new Jugoslavia, which
had been Serbia.
For some time John had been making
careful arrangements with his
Macedonian (Bulgarian) friends, two of
whom he had met long before at Harvard,
to go into the troubled Balkans to seek an
interview with Ivan Michaeloff, the head
of the Inner Macedonian Revolutionary
Organization (IMRO) who were fighting
for an independent Macedonia.
No American journalist had yet suc-

ceeded

in meeting Michaeloff, the intrepid
who lived in the mountains with his

Invited to

Europe

As a result of writing "Origin," John
was invited by Sherwood Eddy and Kirby
Paige, ardent pacifists and idealists, to
join their 1929 trip to visit the various
capitals of Europe for meetings and

discussions with their leaders and
diplomats A little upstart named Hitler
was attracting an alarming following in

Germany.
Our group was composed

two jour-

of

two or three ministers,
several college presidents, and writers.
We were the youngest of the group. Though
John did not hold all the views of Eddy and
Paige, they were fair-minded men who
evidently wanted Bakeless along to ask the
kind of penetrating questions only he could
devise He was amused to think that he had
been asked to go as, he said, "the devil's

turned south, stopping off at Nuremberg,
only to find the town over-run with
hysterical Nazis celebrating a convention.
In Vienna we parted, I to go to Salzburg to
study music, John to travel down the
Danube by boat to Sofia for his dangerous

rendesvouz.

He was gone three weeks. This was risky
business. After many anxious days of
waiting, visiting museums and sightseeing, knowing he was constantly being
observed, he received instructions to be at
a certain street corner at an early morning
hour. He said later that the whole thing
was much like the Broadway suspense
comedies of that period whose locales
were laid in the Balkans.
He was taken by car into the mountains.
At some point there was a change to horse

and carriage, and a change of guides, so
that the men who met him on the street
corner were not the men who took him to
his destination.

785 seniors graduate

Dr. Sylvia Hart, main speaker at
Bloomsburg State College's spring commencement, urged the graduating seniors
to

ask the right questions as they begin

new careers.
Dean of the College

their

of Nursing at the
University of Tennessee. Dr. Hart gave
special recognition to the more than 50
graduates who received the first bachelor
of science degrees in nursing granted by

BSC Her remarks, however, were not
meant only for the nurses or graduates,
but for the entire audience.

"My

hope is that all of us, but especially
those of you to whom we are entrusting our
future, can complete this decade and enter
the 80s committed to a relentless quest for
truth, knowing that in that quest it is
probably more important to ask essential
questions than it is to find essential answers," Dr. Hart told the crowd gathered
at the Bloomsburg Fairgrounds.
The 785 seniors and 62 graduate students
heard her words before receiving their
bachelor and master degrees at the
ceremony, which began at 2 p m. following
a morning baccalaureate service in Haas

Center.

One

of

the highlights of the

morning

was the baccalaureate address
by Dr. John Hoch, dean emeritus of the
college, who explained to the graduates
that they live in a world all their own and
that no one else lives in that particular
world because no one else lives in exactly
activities

the same set of circumstances.
"It is not a question of whether you
change the world," he continued, "but how
you change your particular world. To
deliberately harness change you must be

convinced that you have been put here for
a purpose, delegated by God in however
small way to play a part in renewing the
"
face of the Earth
Concluding he stated, "God has created
you to do Him some definite service; He
has committed some work to you which He
has not committed to another You have
your mission."
Other morning activities included Air
Force. Army and Marine ROTC students
receiving their commissions at a morning
service in Haas Auditorium, and a 10 a
program at the Danville Sheraton where
nursing graduates received their pins and
took their professional oaths
At commencement, degree candidates
were presented by Dr. James V Mitchell,

vice president for Academic Affairs
The
degrees were conferred by Dr. James

courses. A further breakdown
shows that 1,110 undergraduates and 442

9, 1,211 undergraduate and 519
graduate students registered for sessions

Of the graduate enrollment, 565 students
are involved in an off-campus program
offering 14 graduate courses in Bucks

"Efforts are being made by the college
hold the line on enrollments during the
fall and spring semesters because of offcampus housing problems, limited into

structional facilities and restrictions on
employing needed faculty members," Dr.

admitted

Wolfe said.

Included in the students who registered
June 18 are 249 classified as summer freshmen. Under this program, students are
admitted in June, and if they complete
their courses with a satisfactory grade
point average, they return to campus as
freshmen in January This program helps
to maintain a constant enrollment over-

Commenting on

possible reasons for the
sharp enrollment increase, he said this is
the first year out-of-state students pay the
same fees as state residents during the
summer courses. He believes several

students have taken advantage of the
regulations.

'the

of a universe

that will be a better place for all of us."
In his welcoming address. President

McCormick remarked on

Alumni position open

toward

development and restoration

the

many groups

represented

at the ceremony, and how
each of them played an important role in

the educational process.
He then acknowledged the role played by
parents, spouses and families, whom he
considered partners in the educational
process.

The reason BSC exists, Dr McCormick
maintained, is the students, and he hoped
that in both academic and non-academic
life,
they have developed skills and
friendships that will help them throughout
life. He also hoped that the students will
remain involved in BSC through the
Alumni Association, and will continue to
believe in public higher education.
Corey Waters, senior class president,
used the theme "One Person Does Make a
Difference" in remarks to his classmates
after the degree ceremony. "There are
many problems in this world, but young
people can help to solve them." he stated

'73

Peace Corps job in Liberia
By JOAN NORQUEST,

'77

AJumnl Office
While car-pooling may be regarded as
an inconvenience to many Americans,
Alan Klawitter, 73, has known the
necessity of jumping into a taxi already
packed with 10 passengers - the only way
to travel for Peace Corps volunteers in
the
West African country of Liberia.
In 1976 Alan began his assignment in
Bentol, "the Plains, Georgia of Liberia,"
and spent his first year teaching senior
high mathematics and chemistry in a
country about the size of Ohio, located
within six degrees of the equator Like
many Peace Corps volunteers, Alan did
not hold a teaching degree, but then, I) S
teaching methods would not have applied
In a country where the average annual
income is $300. teaching is a well-paid
profession - $172 per month However,
classes usually hold as many as 50
students of various ages and on different
levels of achievement, and books are a
scarce commodity
The housing and salaries of Peace Corps
teachers must be equivalent to that of their
Liberian counterparts Thus, after a weeklong living experience with an average
family in "down country." an area whose
development has been influenced by
Western style towns and cities, Alan

moved into his own home of cement and
brick, grateful to have the use of electricity, a luxury not available in "up
"

country
The area outside Monrovia, the capital
city, is "still usually tribal." "usually"

meaning residents have the benefit of
paved roads In up country the traditional
bush school still exists to train boys in the
art of survival - a requirement for

manhood
The time for boys to enter the rites of
manhood is announced by "the devil"
coming

to

town

Whistling and chanting

signal the devil s arrival, and all women
and any men not belonging to the tribe are
warned not to go out of doors until the devil
passes Those overcome by curiousity may
be reminded that once a Sierra Leonian

French teacher at Gboven High School
was carried off to bush school

When

the

Peace Corps

first

entered

Liberia in the early 60s, some people in
the up country area had never seen

automobiles

They

were, however,
familiar with airplanes because an airport
had been built in Liberia during World War
II
Villagers generally have no access to
an automobile except through a "taxi
service "

The taxi driver maneuvers his small
compact around the village and announces
his destination; when the car is crammed
to capacity, the long dusty trip

begins on

rough

to

dirt

roads Alan's advice

anyone

traveling thus is "try to get a front seat
The driver doesn't like to be un-

comfortable."
\lthough English is the official language
of this country of about 18 tribes, in up
country English is spoken only in the
schools; most students must communicate
with their parents through dialects Alan

soon learned to speak Kpellee (pel leei in

During summer vacations children
usually earn $1 per day cutting sugar cane
The payrate for adult workers on the
Firestone rubber plantation is approximately $2 per day one bag of rice per
month and use of a small plot of ground to

grow vegetables
The dominant religion is Christianity,
and Liberians, too poor to support the
myth of Santa Claus. celebrate Christmas
by throwing firecrackers
Poor sanitation and other factors create
conditions conducive to disease in Liberia
According to Alan, only five of the 60
Peace Corps volunteers in his Liberian
group did not contract malaria, and all of
them suffered from some type of parasite
at one time or another
The closest medical personnel available
to Alan included one full-time registered
nurse in Monrovia, about 25 miles away,
and one doctor, who was responsible for
patients in Sierra Leone as well as Liberia
Would Alan recommend the Peace
Corps'' Yes, but he explains, "The rewards
the Peace Corps are certainly not
in
monetary " If anyone is interested in
joining, they should be willing to live

mashed peanuts about the consistency of

dried beef or fish The food is very hot and
spicy because nearly everything is served
with peppers Many of the Peace Corps
workers had a difficult time adjusting to
the food, but Alan made the transition
more easily after "spending a year and a
half in Southern California "
At $2 per pound, beef is served only on
special occasions or on weekends, ac-

cording to Alan Therefore, meat shoppers
are very selective
The marketplace
becomes a slaughterhouse, and customers
step forward to point out which cuts of
meat they desire
The Peace Corps has been well accepted
in Liberia. As "the only white man in
town," Alan enjoys telling the story of
overhearing a conversation between a
Liberian farmer and his wife, walking
along a road behind him The farmer
asked his wife why this white man did not
own a car The woman explained simply.
'He's not a white man, he's Peace Corps
What separates Peace Corps members
from "white men''" Liberians associate
"white men" with foreign government
employees living in expensive guarded
housing in the capital city Peace Corps
volunteers live with the people, learning
their culture and taboos For example.

EDITOR'S NOTE: This Is the third
of
the four-part series "The John
Bakeless
Story, by Katherine Little Bakeless
'

By KATHERINE LITTLE BAKELESS
After World War I, Macedonia
was

sliced into three parts

For some time John
had been making careful arrangements
with his Macedonian friends to
go into the
troubled Balkans to seek an interview
with
Ivan Michaeloff. the head of
the Inner
Macedonian Revolutionary Organization
(IMRO) which was fighting for an
independent Macedonia

He was

taken by car into the country

from the city of Sofia, Bulgaria, up
into the
mountains of Macedonia At some
point
there was a change to horse and
carriage
and a change of guides, so that the men
who met him on the street corner were
not

men who took him to his destination
They came to a halt at a mountainside
farm One of the men asked John for the
attache case he was carrying. Of
course
they wanted to see if it contained
a weapon
the

for those men lived under
suspicion
viewing every man an enemy until
he
proved a friend John carried no weapon
and was amused when his small metal
soap box startled them, momentarily
mistaken for a bomb
His •guides" led him into an orchard
where a man stepped out from the trees,
held out his hand, and said, "Michaeloff ."

John

shook

"Bakeless

hands

and

answered,

"

Throughout the interview via
and luncheon, served outdoors under the trees, armed guards stood
facing John When it was time to go,
the
IMRO chieftain, a man not above political
murder, gave John a present of three
apples
John's account of this interview appeared in the "Atlantic Monthly" in 1950
and also in a book of essays Another NYU
man attempted an interview with
Michaeloff. but his body was found floating

in

the

Adriatic

John's friends had
prepared his way well. After 10 days he
returned to me in Salzburg and slept for
two days and two nights, recovering from
nervous exhaustion

Our summer

in

Europe ended with a

delightful two-weeks bicycle trip through

Brittany

During those years in the late 20s, two
journalist friends, Marvin McCord Lowes
and Harry Lorin Binsse, together with
John conceived the idea for a new
magazine to be called "The American
Literary Review " It was to contain no
advertizing in order to allow complete
freedom of expression in their reviews
They succeeded in forming finished plans
that attracted supporters pledging a total
of $100,000 - a good starter for those years
— but then the Great Depression struck
the United States, and the "ALR" died
aborning, after many months and mid
night hours had been spent discussing
plans in our New York apartment
In 1931 John's book "Magazine Making"

development of a new course, "History of
the Holocaust " Interest in this subject has
been revived since the showing of the
television special "The Holocaust" and the
renewed search for Nazi war criminals.
In his course, Dr Sperry adjusted his

schedule and expanded his material to
meet the specific needs of his class. By
doing this, he not only added to the
educational process of the students, but
gained information useful to future
classes Dr. Poplawsky has implemented

therefore monitor
progress throughout the semester While
techniques were implemented to improve

the performance of the entire class, a
special effort was made to respond to
individual differences among students,
and to encourage individual student
growth.
Dr Karpinski has been the impetus for
obtaining almost $800,000 in funding for the
college in his 12 years at BSC, and this past
year was no exception, with $55,000 in
federal and state funds being received.
As chairperson of the Department of
Special Education, he is described by the
college as a positive influence in uniting
the faculty into an instrument for improving all aspects of specialized teacher
training. He also helped in the development of the Master of Science degree in
Exceptional Persons, in which 30 persons
are now enrolled
A local committee, consisting of BSC
faculty, students, administrators,
and
honored faculty from colleges and
universities outside the state system,
reviewed applications from candidates in
both the teaching and service categories in
three separate rounds of competition.
Because of their proposals and presentations, Drs. Sperry and Poplawsky each
received a certificate and cash award for
their teaching accomplishments, and Dr.
Karpinski received a similar award for his
service to the college.

Alumni

invited to share
Bloomsburg State College alumni were
invited by President James H. McCormick
share the excitement of helping the

to

college maintain its momentum through
the "difficult decade of the 80s " The invitation was given in the president's address at the annual Alumni Luncheon on
April 28 in Scranton Commons.
President McCormick emphasized the
important role alumni have played in the
development of BSC as a strong, growing
multi-purpose institution He said that
while financial support is important and
necessary, there are many ways alumni
contribute to the success of a college.

"We

recommending new students," he said

"We attribute much of our success in
maintaining a stable enrollment to your
recruitment efforts. As we enter the difdecade of the 80s and face the
forecasts of a declining number of
potential students, we need your help to
ficult

maintain our

momentum

"

In outlining the college's present status,
he said over 3,900 freshman applications

have been received for the 1979-80
academic year, a 14 percent increase over
last year.

Over the last year, running has begun to
a large role in the life of the
Laubachs.
"I began running mainly to improve my
health," explained Winton
"My doctor
told me I needed to lose some weight, plus
"
I had high blood pressure
"I'm running now because he is," Janet
said simply "Winton has lost ,35 pounds
and his blood pressure is normal now."
"I've gone off my hypertension
medication." he added "With the blessing
of his doctor, of course," Janet interjected
For novice runners who have been in
training only since last spring and had
never run farther than two miles at one
time together, the 10,000-meter race (6 2
miles) should have presented quite a
challenge for the couple
"Actually, we didn't have very many

problems because we started in the back of
the pack 2.700 runners registered for the
race) and went off slowly," said Winton

Students from eight of the state colleges

Seven colleges In the state university
system will soon obtain autonomy in
budgetary and personnel matters,
Secretary of Education Robert G. Scanlon
reported October 8 during a visit to
Bloomsburg and Danville.
Scanlon reported the development

Scanlon also suggested that greater
efforts should be made to attract more
students for the state system in the years

during a visit to BSC prior to addressing
the annual meeting of the academic vice
presidents and deans at the Danville
Sheraton Inn.
Negotiations on memorandums of understanding were completed the previous
week with the seven schools, including
BSC, Scanlon said. The agreements were
expected to be executed soon.
Delegates authority
The new arrangement will delegate
authority previously held by the state's
Office of Administration and Budget to the
presidents of the seven colleges. All seven
of the schools have projected balanced

scholarships, loan

budgets.

Scanlon explained the autonomy will
speed the decision-making process in
terms of budget and personnel matters.
Although pointing to jobs and education
as the two top priorities of the Thornburgh
administration, the secretary was less
than hopeful that state colleges and
universities would win greater funding
from the Legislature than a proposed
seven percent increase
The secretary indicated the state system
must overcome a credibility problem with
the Legislature and must demonstrate that
it can live within the bounds of "what it
gets."

"We have

Reporting that 27,000 persons a year
leave the state to attend college, he
proposed using such incentives as

programs and grants to
win enrollments in state schools.
Sc anion's remarks at BSC were made
during an informal meeting with faculty
members and students.
In Danville, the secretary told vice
presidents and college deans that planning

Marketing a key
In the face of declining enrollments and
increased costs, Scanlon urged educators
to convince people that higher education is
important and that state colleges are
performing a vital task.
"We need to find appropriate ways to
toot our own horn, to let people know what
we do for them. We need to tell people the
good things happening on our campuses.
Scanlon said state schools need to be

College trying to keep students
Did you ever wonder why some students
leave Bloomsburg State College before
they graduate'' The Recruitment and
Retention Task Force was developed last
February in hopes of answering that
question.

"What we are attempting to do is change
what should be changed on campus to
meet the needs of the students, while still
maintaining standards of high quality.'
said John Scrimgeour. chairman of the
task force.
The task force has been formed before
any great drop in enrollment occurs at
BSC, which still enjoys rather healthy
enrollment. Other colleges and universities around the country are not as fortunate. They are beginning to experience
enrollment declines and many have not yet
developed a plan to investigate recruitment and retention policies and practices
Through the committee's efforts, BSC
hopes to review all matters which affect
the quality of life at Bloomsburg for those
students currently enrolled and which are
attractive to prospective students.
Phil Krause, former admissions officer
and presently staff assistant in the
Academic Affairs office, is concerned
about the enrollment projections.
"All institutions are going to be affected
by declining enrollment very shortly. We
want to make certain that we are realistic
in our future enrollment goals and that we
provide an educational setting which will
not only attract, but also retain students
Krause quotes a critical statistic:
"When a college loses one student who has
dropped out, that college must recruit two
"
students to make up for the one who left
It is critically important to keep those

students who have already begun their
studies at BSC in addition to concentrating
on bringing in new students, he added.
The committee will concentrate on

information from current
students with the hope of using it to
develop a workable, attractive retention

gathering

plan.

The committee

will obtain

its

in-

formation by concentrating on three data
gathering systems and by distributing a
survey among former students and
graduates.
The first system already in existence
and working well is the offering of noncredit p re-courses in areas such as composition and speech. These courses supplement the regular academic courseload
and allow students to obtain assistance in
areas in which they experience some

academic difficulty.
Another system — an early alert system
— will be investigated. Under this plan,
faculty members would pay particular
attention

to

formance

in the

their

students'

early

per-

classroom and identify
those who are experiencing difficulties.
These students would then be referred to
the task force or the appropriate office for
counseling and guidance.
A part of this system might include the
development of a policy to prevent freshmen with less than a 2.0 cumulative

average

for

15 credits in the

second semester This proposed policy
would stress that good quality work and

academic success is more important than the number of credits earned
by the end of the school year. Part of this
proposal is already in effect, but it is not
stated as institutional policy.
initial

The third system being developed is a
recommendation and advisement system.
This includes more in-depth interviews
with students planning to withdraw from
the college. Through this process, counselors will learn which practices and
policies send students
away from
Bloomsburg.
To provide initial input to the committee, the questionnaire was developed
last spring and was administered to the 642

graduating seniors prior

to

leaving school.

The results of the survey, developed by Dr.

month. The basic intent of the survey was
to determine "the quality of student life in
all of the many ways in which the students
and the institution touch one another.
The idea was that this self-examination

would lead to improvements in programs
and services which, in turn, would have as
a by-product higher student retention.
Some of the questions asked included the
following:
"Why did you pick BSC over other
colleges'' " About 50 percent of the 642
students surveyed picked BSC because of
either "good academic reputation" or

"advice of someone who attended BSC."
50 percent gave one of 11 other

percent of the students (578) said yes and
11 percent (90) said no.
"What was your degree of satisfaction in
general?" Ninety-six percent (591) answered either "moderate," "much," or
"great."
The biggest complaints most frequently
voiced in the survey concerned parking
and food service.
"We should be able to use this information to make the campus a better
place to study and learn.," Scrimgeour
said.
"The surveys will show which
practices and policies are the most effective so that we may focus on their
promotion in the positive aspect rather
than the negative aspect of those policies
that do not work as well."

in Nature was his friend.
Another old and constant friend was his
well-worn copy of The Oxford Book of

last page, now brown-spotted from the
years, I find in his handwriting: "This
book has been with me: One year at home,

In
his last years, John Bakeless
sometimes wondered, almost wistfully,
what our lives would have been like if he
had accepted the offer to join the Harvard
faculty. We had both loved Harvard,
Cambridge, and Boston during our first six
years.

When I asked him if he wished he had, he
no, for then he would have
regretted the work and teaching in journalism and the writing he had done. For if
he had been a member of the Harvard
faculty, he might not have written the
books he did write.
The academic mind is, as a rule,
suspicious of the researcher in several
fields, thinking he must be spreading
himself too thin. The academician early
chooses one field to explore and thereafter
stays there digging ever deeper and also,
as a rule, growing narrower. Exceptions
were Kittredge and Lowes of Harvard,
who knew Bakeless' ability and his
painstaking research, evident in all his
books, and who also understood an eager,
inquisitive mind.
Some of Yale's English faculty did not
approve of Bakeless' departure from the
Elizabethan era and turning to the

in biography and history.
However, no scholar has ever been able to
say that Bakeless' research was not
thorough. Had he stayed at Harvard, he
felt he might have been steered away from
the American biographical, historical, and
war studies, for Kittredge and Lowes were
well along in years and vanished from the

Huskies scored 118 points while their opponents scored 134.
Morucci established 14 BSC records,

Penn State has its Nittany Lion, and other Pennsylvania state colleges have their mascots, too. So have you ever
wondered where BSC's Husky was? No need to wonder any longer.
The BSC Husky Mascot (human variety) made his first appearance at
the Homecoming football game with Wilkes College. And here is
the idea unfolded. Carol Chronister, head of the cheerleaders,
reported that two young men approached her earlier this semester
to express their interest in becoming members of the cheerleading

how

squad. Their offer had to be turned down, however, because of a
lack of uniforms. Since she couldn't have male cheerleaders, she
thought "Why not have a replica of the Husky dog?" So materials
were purchased and the costume was created. Michael Wassiliczky,
a sophomore from Bristol, gave the costume life during the football
season.
