The program for Friday Chapel was
n charge of Professor Eeams, who
ecured for us Miss Marie Yousso>o\iff , rug connoisseur. Miss Yousso>ouff is a Russian by birth ; she was
i refugee to Constantinople at the
ime of the Russian Revolution. A
e\v years ago she received a position
nth a large rug company in London.
ifter a few years work with this comiany she became a connoisseur of
)riental Rugs. She now works for a
inn which has a large store in New
fork. This firm has many represenatives in the East. Miss Yousso>ouff spends much of her time in the
Cast. She explained that one must

o thoroughly know them.

in horseback.
Rugs are divided into five types:
Turk i sh , Caucasian , Persi an, Bokhara
mn d Chin ese, (the Chinese are not so
Smportant because not so many good
tones are being made by them). The
irug has five values: collection , selliing, color , quality and antique val
lugs; each is dependent upon the othsr. The Turks use one knot in making the rug, the Persians another , and
in the Bokhara rugs another is used.

The annual Dramatic Club Play
was given last Friday night and was
a decided success.
"The Swan " by Ferenc Molnar has
only recently been released for
amateur production and is somewhat
difficult to stage but our players showed remarkable ability in handing their
parts.
The plot proved very exciting. It
was a night of real entertainment.
We appreciated the amount of work
spent on its production.
In the first scene we saw the classroom of the young. Princess. The
second brough t us to the banquet hall
of the castle and who could help gasping at its splendor ! The stage setting
was beautiful. The third scene found
us viewing the drawing room of the
castle. It was all very delightful.
If only more of us could have seen

A seventh inning rally at East
Stroudsburg Saturday afternoon gave
Bloomsburg Normal' s undefeated
baseball team a 5-4 victory over the
Normal School of that place and forc^
ed the Stroudsburg nine to lower her
colors in defea t for the first time in
two years.
Bloomsburg 's victory over the "Big
Red" team was the second on the
.week-end trip, following a 12 to 6 victory gained over Keystone Academy
at FaetoryvUle on Friday. It was the
four th of the season.
The game at East Stroudsburg was
a hard battle. Bloomsburg got the
lead wi t h two runs in the first but
was wiped out when the home team,
after scoring one in the itiitial round ,
scored t hree runs and ended scor ing
for the day.
Bernard Roan pitched the full nine
innings for Bloomsburg .and allowed
nine hits. He was given faultless

While the Normal Varsity was taking the hide of East Stroudsburg on
Saturday afternoon , the Junior Varsity was.also adding laurels.to the
school by decisively defeating Espy

Red Bamford pitched the entire

t*his season, by the score of 12-6.
Keystone could not stand the strain
of the heavy slugging bats of our
boys and went down to easy defeat.
Coach Booth is well pleased with
the team he has collected and expects
to go through the season without a
setback. It sure looks as though his
predictions will come true. -If the
boys continue playing the brand of
ball the rest of the season, that they
have been playing to date, there
won't be any doubt of it.
Our boys well deserved the contest
as they clouted the ball to all corners
of the lot in an easy manner.

SPRING'S EFFECT
It seems to us that spring has its
effect whether good or bad , on everyone. For some, spring means a season of 'hard work and preparation for
final tests and commencement; it is
sad to relate that the people for whom
spring has this meaning, are few in
number. For others, spring means a
manifestation of nature 's power, a
period of groat beau ty, when one may
go out and hunt for flowers and other
growing plants.
For others, spring means romance,
a chance to take the best girl out for
some good dates, a lot of sorority and
class dance s at which to have a great
time.
For still others, spring means rest
from the serious studies and hard
work of the winter session—a time
when discretion is cast to the wind
and all worry about marks is flung
aside.
Wo feel that if parts of some of
these views were combined into one ,
an ideal view would result. Each
view is justified to a certain extent,
but none «re totally correct. One
can only hope that everyone passes
anyway, whether with a diploma or
out of the door.

BLOOMSBURG TO PLAY
SHIPPENSBURG TOMORRO W!
Shi ppensburg Holds Record of Notot

Losing Game For Over Year.

Coach Booth 's Maroon and Goli|l {|
tossors have gotten away on a flyingg
start. They have played a quartet of>f
games and have emerged from all 11
four victoriously. They will make e
their third appearance on a forei gnu
diamond tomorrow when they invade e
Shippensburg to oppose the diamond d
kings of that, institution.
Shippensburg is usually the possessor of excelle nt a t hletic t eams and
jus t at present they hold a record of
not having bowed in defeat for over
a year. Bloomsburg fell before
them in a thrilling 5-4 contest last
year and we hope to reverse that tiefeat into a victory tomorrow. Last
Saturday our boys forced the East
Stroudsb urg sluggers to bow their
heads in defeat for the first time in
fcwo years nnd we have the greatest
hopes of handing the Shippensburg
representatives the same set-back.
Coach Booth has a very promising
team this year and the possibilities of
our having a perfect season are greater than ever. Mr. Booth has an excellent pitching staff and a troup of
heavy hitters. We are looking forward to a grand and glorious season.
Let 's go team.
The probable line-up :
Wilson
Short Stop.
Wadas
Third Base.
Bradshaw
Catcher.
McGrath
First Base.
Right Field.
Yarshefski *
Coursen
Second Base.
Vital
Center Field.
Garrity

Roan

The entire membership of the
Omega Chi Fraternity along with the
faculty advisers visited Hotel Remley
at Light Street on Wednesday evening where they held a banquet. Mr
Bakeless , one of the facul ty advisers,
'was u nable to attend due t o his recen t
sickness.
The group assembled at North Hall
at 6:30 P. M. and left for Light Street
by machine at 6:45. A delightful
trip was had by the group. After
they arrived at Hotel Remley, they
loitered about making merry among
themselves until the dinner bell was
sounded. A mad rush followed although no one was injur ed. After
the chicken dinner was devoured a delightful program was rendered.
The program consisted of the following numbers :
Humor—Ralph Davies.
