Decked out in beautiful spring
colors , the gym was changed from
drab reality to gorgeaus, resplendent fairy land. As the soft strains
of th e waltzes floated in and out among the rafters an irresistible atmosphere was created.
No matter what was going on , no
matter if one danced or not , everyon e was happy. How could it be
helped? The stage was set. Step out !
The art department is to be congratulated on the beauty of the gym.
It was a creation of another world.
JAMES COURSEN —ORATOR
The ability of James Coursen as
an orator was readily recognized by
the Ivy Day Committee which has
conferred the honor of giving the
Ivy Day Oration on him. His accomplished work during his Senior year
has made him eligible for such honors. His ability as an orator was first
recognized when he delivered a
speech in Senior Chapel on "School
Spirit at B. S. N. S.". It brought
home many facts to the Senior Class
which previously were never considered by them, The committee has
made a wise selection in "Jimmie"
as he is better known.
lov er , a near elopement ! What roman ce , who ca n resist it!
"The Rivals " written by Richard
Brin sley Sheridan , is a classic comedy, written in 1774 and first produced in 1775. Ever since its first success it has gone through performance
af ter performance, given by amateurs and professionals, colleges and
clubs like a comet, always beautiful , always bright, always cheered to
the skys . Such another success as it
had in . London and New York is
looked for here.
It is a true picture of the life and
customs of the day and well sets off
some of the sentimental swagger of
the age. The satire is most profound.
The allusions to honor and valour,
the beginnings of duck , the peculiar
attitude of the older people toward
marriage are all attempts to strike
at some wishy-washy ideas of the
times.
At 8:15 in the Normal Auditorium the curtain will be rung up . Can
you afford to be among the missing?
The cast includes: Arch Austin,
Larry Coolbaugh , E leanor Evans,
Helen Pursel Gertrude 1 Bauch er, Victor Auskis, Jack Rowlands, Jessie
Zimmerman , Jock Fortner, Phil Keil,
Hugo Riemer, The director is Miss
Johnston.

NORMAL PUCES THIRD
IN NORMAL SCHOOL RACE
Indiana Again Takes The First
Place.
What is generally considered one
of the biggest spectacles of the year
is the Penn Relay Carnival. Almost
every school in the east and many
in the west send teams to compete
in the events. Teams are entered everywhere fr om Junior Hi gh School
up.
This year the attending crowd was
immense. There were ove r 3,000 entrants and more than 30 000 spectators. Many of the carnival records
were lowered and a few world's seconds dropped.
One of the most closely contested
races of the whole Carnival was the
Normal school Relay Race for the
championship of America. There
were fifteen teams entered , about
five of which were from Pennsylvania.
Bloomsburg Normal had a team
e n t er e d of which t hey can justly be
proud. Led by Kanyuck they went
down t h er e t o give a n e x hibition of
r unnin g. An d they did. The team
consisted of Kanyuck , Robinson , Davies and Walsh.
The first runner was Kanyuck. He
.j umped the gun and was penalized
two yards. As a result he ran close
to last all ai-ound except at the finish
when he cam e home like a flash , passing the maj ority of his competitoi's
and finishing 1 sixth. Robinson ha f ] a
little troubl e getting the touch but
when he did he tore past and finished fif th. Davies held on to that place
lik e a bull dog and when Walsh started—man , what speed. If the 440
were a 450 B loomsburg would have
won but we made a good third.
So you see Bloomsburg is always
in the ru nn i n g n o ma tt er wha t is t o
be do ne.

OBITERS HERE
The eleventh volume of the Obiter
was published on Wednesday of this
week. The book arrived at 1:30 P.
M. and by 4 :30 P. M. over half of
them were in the hands of the students. Students rushed into the book
room all afternoon with big smiles
on their faces in order to see the
"pride of the Senior Class."
There were many changes made
in publishing the book this year, all
of which have made it the best book
ever sent out of this school. The staff
has allowed three pages in the back
of the Obiter for autographs. This
aids greatly in having our Junior
friends write what they think about
us. Another great change was made
in the border. T hi s is a prac t ical ly
new idea devised by Gilbert Cooper ,
the Artist of the Obiter. Each pict ur e of th e individuals are f r a m e d
in a neat and attractive border. The
id ea carried out in the book is simpli city. It originates on the cover
where a plain bu t very a tt r act iv e
border is used. This same border
ide a is c arri ed o ut t hr u the w hole
book.
The book was dedicated to Miss
Pearl Mason the Librarian , who has
b e en a close f r i e n d , loved by every
membe r of t h e Senior Class and in ,
i'act , every member of this institution.
The Obiter staff has been greeted
on all sides with hearty congratulations f or the good work which they
have done in publishing" such an An=
nual. E ac h Ob iter f or succ e ssive
years has been a better one than the
year befor e but since the 192G publication it means plenty of work for
any class that puts out a book which
will excel this year 's Obiter.

Coach Jeckson Looks For Better Results.
Since the game last Saturday everyone on the baseball squad has
been working hard to improve what
seemed to be a team in a slump. Altho the team slipped , fans will excuse them if they do better this week.
Nothing - is known of the Shpipensburg team or who is on it but the
fact remains that we beat them twice
last year and they are by no mSans
beyond a same experience this year.
Several experiments have been
tried in the infield. Red Garrity has
had a tryout at second base and looks
pretty good . Joe Kane is j ust rounding into form and he looks good.
Arch Austin is playing his old
stead y game at first. He scoops up
low ones and has an awful reach
when it cames to the high ones. He
can hit too.
Bradshaw is working fine and we
hope the pitchers are getting1 back
where they were once. The team
sho uld go ' Me this week .
About twelve men will leave tomorrow morning with the coach and
manager. The men are ready to give
a good account of themselves.

they stage a play for the club which
is open for criticism.
Lust week a play was presented
railed "Suppressed Desires." It is a
story of the havoc psychoanalysis
played in a home. The wife ,' Helen
Mulli gan , was a fanatic but as soon
as her ideas hit her home she was
ready to drop it. Millie Heusch found
she had a few desires she knew not
of.
Jack Rowlands was the star. Worrie d by his wife 's nagging he had
himself psychoanalyzed and . found
out that he wished to leave his wife.

JAMES COURSEN —ORATOR
The ability of James Coursen as
an orator was readily recognized by
the Ivy Day Committee which has
conferred the honor of giving the
Ivy Day Oration on him. His accomplished work during his Senior year
has made him eligible for such honors. His ability as an orator was first
recognized when he delivered a
speech in Senior Chapel on "School
Spirit at B. S. N. S.". It brought
home many facts to the Senior Class
which previously were never considered by them, The committee has
made a wise selection in "Jimmie"
as he is better known.
lov er , a near elopement ! What roman ce , who ca n resist it!
"The Rivals " written by Richard
Brin sley Sheridan , is a classic comedy, written in 1774 and first produced in 1775. Ever since its first success it has gone through performance
af ter performance, given by amateurs and professionals, colleges and
clubs like a comet, always beautiful , always bright, always cheered to
the skys . Such another success as it
had in . London and New York is
looked for here.
It is a true picture of the life and
customs of the day and well sets off
some of the sentimental swagger of
the age. The satire is most profound.
The allusions to honor and valour,
the beginnings of duck , the peculiar
attitude of the older people toward
marriage are all attempts to strike
at some wishy-washy ideas of the
times.
At 8:15 in the Normal Auditorium the curtain will be rung up . Can
you afford to be among the missing?
The cast includes: Arch Austin,
Larry Coolbaugh , E leanor Evans,
Helen Pursel Gertrude 1 Bauch er, Victor Auskis, Jack Rowlands, Jessie
Zimmerman , Jock Fortner, Phil Keil,
Hugo Riemer, The director is Miss

NORMAL PUCES THIRD
IN NORMAL SCHOOL RACE
Indiana Again Takes The First
Place.
What is generally considered one
of the biggest spectacles of the year
is the Penn Relay Carnival. Almost
every school in the east and many
in the west send teams to compete
in the events. Teams are entered everywhere fr om Junior Hi gh School
up.
This year the attending crowd was
immense. There were ove r 3,000 entrants and more than 30 000 spectators. Many of the carnival records
were lowered and a few world's seconds dropped.
One of the most closely contested
races of the whole Carnival was the
Normal school Relay Race for the
championship of America. There
were fifteen teams entered , about
five of which were from Pennsylvania.
Bloomsburg Normal had a team
e n t er e d of which t hey can justly be
proud. Led by Kanyuck they went
down t h er e t o give a n e x hibition of
r unnin g. An d they did. The team
consisted of Kanyuck , Robinson , Davies and Walsh.
The first runner was Kanyuck. He
.j umped the gun and was penalized
two yards. As a result he ran close
to last all ai-ound except at the finish
when he cam e home like a flash , passing the maj ority of his competitoi's
and finishing 1 sixth. Robinson ha f ] a
little troubl e getting the touch but
when he did he tore past and finished fif th. Davies held on to that place
lik e a bull dog and when Walsh started—man , what speed. If the 440
were a 450 B loomsburg would have
won but we made a good third.
So you see Bloomsburg is always
in the ru nn i n g n o ma tt er wha t is t o
be do ne.

OBITERS HERE
The eleventh volume of the Obiter
was published on Wednesday of this
week. The book arrived at 1:30 P.
M. and by 4 :30 P. M. over half of
them were in the hands of the students. Students rushed into the book
room all afternoon with big smiles
on their faces in order to see the
"pride of the Senior Class."
There were many changes made
in publishing the book this year, all
of which have made it the best book
ever sent out of this school. The staff
has allowed three pages in the back
of the Obiter for autographs. This
aids greatly in having our Junior
friends write what they think about
us. Another great change was made
in the border. T hi s is a prac t ical ly
new idea devised by Gilbert Cooper ,
the Artist of the Obiter. Each pict ur e of th e individuals are f r a m e d
in a neat and attractive border. The
id ea carried out in the book is simpli city. It originates on the cover
where a plain bu t very a tt r act iv e
border is used. This same border
ide a is c arri ed o ut t hr u the w hole
book.
The book was dedicated to Miss
Pearl Mason the Librarian , who has
b e en a close f r i e n d , loved by every
membe r of t h e Senior Class and in ,
i'act , every member of this institution.
The Obiter staff has been greeted
on all sides with hearty congratulations f or the good work which they
have done in publishing" such an An=
nual. E ac h Ob iter f or succ e ssive
years has been a better one than the
year befor e but since the 192G publication it means plenty of work for
any class that puts out a book which
will excel this year 's Obiter.

Coach Jeckson Looks For Better Results.
Since the game last Saturday everyone on the baseball squad has
been working hard to improve what
seemed to be a team in a slump. Altho the team slipped , fans will excuse them if they do better this week.
Nothing - is known of the Shpipensburg team or who is on it but the
fact remains that we beat them twice
last year and they are by no mSans
beyond a same experience this year.
Several experiments have been
tried in the infield. Red Garrity has
had a tryout at second base and looks
pretty good . Joe Kane is j ust rounding into form and he looks good.
Arch Austin is playing his old
stead y game at first. He scoops up
low ones and has an awful reach
when it cames to the high ones. He
can hit too.
Bradshaw is working fine and we
hope the pitchers are getting1 back
where they were once. The team
sho uld go ' Me this week .
About twelve men will leave tomorrow morning with the coach and
manager. The men are ready to give
a good account of themselves.

The Bloomsburg Players * have real
talent among- them and it is j ust beginning to come out. Every week
they stage a play for the club which
is open for criticism.
Lust week a play was presented
railed "Suppressed Desires." It is a
story of the havoc psychoanalysis
played in a home. The wife ,' Helen
Mulli gan , was a fanatic but as soon
as her ideas hit her home she was
ready to drop it. Millie Heusch found
she had a few desires she knew not
of.
Jack Rowlands was the star. Worrie d by his wife 's nagging he had
himself psychoanalyzed and . found
out that he wished to leave his wife.
