Crushes Kutztown 12-0

Bloomsburg invaded the Kutztown Gridiron on Saturday and walked away with an
easy victory of 12 to 0. The Maroon and
Gold defenders had the better of the argument on Saturday afternoon. This is shown
best by first downs of which the local eleven
had 15 and our opponents but four.
There was much fumblin g, something that
is generally prominent in an opening game
and Bloomsburg was guilty of most of the
losses handlin g of the ball. The fault was a
big handicap in their scoring activities.
Wadas , varsity end for the last two years,
scored the first touchdown in the opening
period of the game by catching a forward
pass behind the goal line.
''Keck" Maurer , a half back, scored the
other touch-down by a short run during the
last quarter.
In the closing seconds of the game Nick
Jaffin went over the goal line but the officials
claimed his forward motion had been stopped by a tackle. The ball was placed on the
one foot line , but the time was up before the
boys could succeed in scoring for a third
time.
During the fray, Clarence (Rookie) Ruch
was put out for the count by an odd bump on
his nose. This gave a chance for John
Harry to get into the game as tackle.
Kutztown made their only impression as
an offensive team in the fi rst three minutes
of action. They received and put the ball in
play on their 15 yard line. A forward pass
neted them 35 yards and an end run gave
them another first down. The Bloomsburg
team organized their defensive and as a result their opponents received only two more
firs t downs through the game.

Great work , Coach ! You sure have a fine

team. Keep up the good work.
Freshman rules have been declared off by
the Student Council. Nice work , "Fr osh .
You lived up to the rules fine.
This paper received a lot of congratulations last week. THANK YOU ! We promise to keep on with the good work.
This column no ticed that some of the pictures and p last er cas t s on t he w all are being
defaced by some heedless , destructive people.
They were put there for your pleasure and
the beau ty of the college. The bulletin
board is directly opposite the Post-Office,
An y notices can be posted there.
SUPPORT YOUR TEAM. What this
school has lacked in the past is team spirit.
Get a little snap into you! Your team merits
your support and you know it. Be square
with yourself and the team. Show yourself in y our true colors and be on the field before
time 'rarin' to go. Let 's show West Chester
that we are back of our team 100%.

"Frosh" Have Final Workout
Extract f rom a Freshman 's Diar yf Oct. 8, '28
Hurrah! Our rules are off. All we must do
from now on is to wear dinks. Cigarettes and
women! Wow! I' m a free man again. Tonight we did the last of our foolish things for
the upper classmen.
From now on we will hear new wise-crackers who previous to this time were solemnlooking, (if a "Frosh" can look that way,)
clams. More students to beg cigarettes, more
"cellar-digger " to take our girls.
The ceremonies began at ten o'clock , Monday night when the "be-dinked ones ," who
looked as though they might have been from
Sing Sing instead of B. S. T. C. in the old
clothes , were assembled in the lobby of North
Hali. The only thing that happened there
was a check-up. Master of ceremonies , Mr.
"Shorty " Edwards found all of his "merry
makers " present and everything was set for a
big night on the "gorfe-stained" Mt. Olympus.
1he most highly obeyed little leader then
had his "blundering herd" up to the battle
grounds and had them sing their class anthem ,
''How Green I Am ," to keep up the moral.
If they ever need spirit again they should try
some other emotion—arousing song. Their
class anthem failed to do this. After they
marched around the field several times they
formed a circle and the center of it became
the ceremonial ground. That great minds
run in the same channel was proved by
"Frosh " Gutter , the first victim to be subjected to the criticism of his destructive classmates. He was called up on to expound upon
the theory of "How High is Up, " Gutter
filled his mind in contemplation and flowed
rut the theory that "Up is to Up " as low is
low. Because of this logical answer the
'Vater-conducting Frosh" was dismissed.
In our midst we had one "Frosh " Levingre, who gave a wonderfu l demonstration of
the correct and most efficient methods of
makin g love. Because of the restrictions
placed on Waller Hall , a tackling dummy was
substituted for the reason which some of you
know , that is , it takes two persons j n a scene
like that , ( use your own imagination. )
"Frosh" Levigre opened the round with a
fearful strangle-hold. Miss Hit M. Harder
certainly knows her stuffand she slipped from
his arm. Undaunted and very emotionnlly
the champion of the class 1932 make another
attempt. His "comrades in suffering " are all
cheering and begging him to overcome this
vicious vixen. But this "Cleopatra " knew
too much for her "Mark Anthony. " The
old story again , Frosh Levigre was called
back into the line , a d isgraced "Frosh ."

Mrs. Miller Entertains in Cha pel
with Folk Songs
Our Chap el Pro gram on Oct. 8, was in charge
of Mrs. J. K. Miller, hea d of the Music
Depa rtmen t
The topic which she presented was "Folksongs". By way of illustrating kinds of folk
songs, she used the Orthophonic victrola.
Before playing the songs, however , Mrs. Miller discussed them. They originated among
the people, and were sung by scops and minstrels. From generation to generation, as
these songs were passed on, they were unconsciously changed from the original, until , when
written , they wer e oftentimes much differ ent
from the first version.
The first song was song by a Russian singer. The instrument on which the aeeompanment played had a beautiful , velvety tone.
"Paradise ", played by Fritz Kreisler, on his
violin, was next. The third was "Goodnight "
sung in Bohemian by Bohemian opera singefs.
To end the program , Mrs. Miller played for
us a fine Hungarian dance. Hungarian dances
are usually rich in expression and deep in
th ought , and this one was no exception to the
rule.
Modern composers have taken these dances ,
and by adding here and there, some modern
musical form , have made popular music out
of them. This particular Hungarian dance
was played by the Philadelphia Orchestra*
and it made a fine end to a very excellent
program.

Nomencla ture of C lasses
There seems to be some mistake in designating not only the lower but also the upper
classes.
In no case should first year students be
known as Juniors. For some reason or other ,
the term Junior has been frequently applied
too the first year students of the two year
course. This is not the correct form to be applied to this class. The following changes go
into effect immediately.
1. All first year classes of any course shall
be designated as Freshmen or members of the
first year class.
2. The second year of the four year course
shall be designated as Sophomores or second
year class.
3. Members of the third year of the four
year course shall be known as Juniors or the
third year class.
4. Finally, the term Seniors belongs to the
members of the fourth year class or those who
are completing the second year of the two
year course.
Kindly observe the above designations and
use them properly, for by doing so you will
avoid unnecessary confusion ,
Edmunds: I'll bet Frosh Jenkins is Scotch.
Davis: He is. How did you know?
Edmunds : He licked his spectacles aft er
eating his grapefruit.

EDITORIAL
TO THE STUDENTS WHO APPRECIATE THE MAROON AND GOLD
Almost all the college papers , including ours , are published by students. This
school year we are experiencing many
difficulties with the Maroon and Gold.
Why? because the expense of issuing the
paper is met by y our subscription and
the advertising space sold to the merchants of Bloomsburg . In regard to the
first ite m , do you know how many
students have subscribed? Exactly 28%.
We are not worrying about that , however , as our main difficulty lies between
the school and the merch ant. Some of
the merchants are failin g to co-operate

MY FIRST IMPRESSIONS OF B. S. T. C.
The hustle and bustle of the first day at
school, varied as it may seem, is a rather conventional affair. To begin with, there are
the assignments of rooms, classes, etc., and
also the usual question of wrong directions.
However, having registered late, I have the
misfortune (or would you call it fortune?) of
having missed quite a number of things. The
council has decidedly turned thumbs down on
the "Frosh", whereas a few short weeks ago,
they were a frisky unruly lot. It is, I find , a
timorous and brow beaten group, into whose
midst I have been ushered. A sorry bedinked
crew we are, who now vainly turn the calendar pages looking forward to next year.
Women, that glorious sex whom Shelley,
Bobby Burns and Flo Zeigfield , have each in
turn glorified are not for Freshman. He,
solitary soul, must tread the paths of knowledge alone without the aid of clicking spanish heels at his side.
In closing, nothing more fitting can be
quoted than those immortal words of Shakespeare, (or was it Milt Gross?) namely,
"Greater love hath no man/than an upperclassman for a Frosh".

DAVID COPPERFIELD

Charles Dickens, celebrated English novelist, has merited the highest esteem among all
readers and critics. He was the first to introduce humanitarianism and democratic
sympathy into fiction , he also made many efforts to improve the condition of the poor and
down-trodden. Dickens turned his personal
experiences to account in novels and has left
a record of his early life in the early chapter
of "David Copperfield ," an autobiography.
In the beginning of the story, the author
leads us to sympathize with David, whose
father has died while his weak but loving
mother marries Mr. Murdstone. David despises his step-father because of his cruelty,
and as a result, David is sent away to a boys'
school.
While David is at school his mother dies.
Immedi ately , Mr. Murdstone sends David to
London to earn his own living. Here, with
the aid of some loyal friends, especially' th at
of Mr. and Mrs. Micawber, David returns to
his kind , old aunt , Betsy Trotwood , who
adopts him and sends him to school at Canterbury. At his boarding house he meets the
benevolent Doctor Strong who encourages
him on to higher things in life and also Uriah
Heep who almost wrecks his life.
After David finishes his course, he becomes
a proctor. In the meantime, he marries beautiful Dora Spenlow who is an unsuitable wife.
She dies, however, soon after their marriage.
Later David is considered an important figure in the English Parliament. He also becomes a noted writer.
In the end, David marries Agnes Wakefield , a noble and self-sacrificing girl who encourages him on to noble endeavors.
Although the plot of this story is melodramatic and is marked by repeated abuses of
coincidence, nevertheless, its fine qualities—
universal appeal and forceful settings—are
well indicated.
As a portrayer of contemporary life and
manners, Dickens has not been surpassed.
He was more successful in handling the smaller walks of life than the upper, as is evidenced in this story.
Too, Dickens was "the greatest comic genius of modern times ". His humorous figures ,
althou gh there is an exaggeration in all, are
an unfailin g sour ce of wholesome delight. Besides, the ran ge of Dickens' creative genius
was immense. We see that Micawber was a
man famous for his long words and grandiloquent posing, the man who always waited for
"something to turn out " ; we see Uriah Heep ,
of the "clammy fingers ," the "writhin g body "
—a polished hypocrite ; Miss Trotwood we
have with an anti pathy to donkeys.
After readin g "David Copperfield ," a read er easily sees that the author was a lover of
all his fellow-men , for his sympathies are revealed. He always wrote with an aim. It is
the fashion to magnify his faults and limitations , but his genius is bound up with the life
of the race and his name is among the immortals.

"Fros h" Have Final Workout
Another coming Romeo then staked his experience against that of Miss Hit M. Harder.
M iss Ha rder , by the way, is one of Coach
Booth's most intim at e fr iends, and if this news
gets to hi m, the love-making practice after
dark on Mt. Olympus will be discontinued.
.This sweet Htftle tackling dummy becomes all
wrapped up in a certain "Frosh" Dusharks,
a veritable John Gilbert. She made two unsuccessf ul attempts to break the most scientific holds of her most passionate lover. Finally she su mmoned all of her wiles to her ad vantage and slipped from crushing arms of
the "Drug Store Cowboy ". "Frosh" Davis
was then called upon to explain something
that has foiled everyone since the beginning
of time. He was asked to inform his fellowclassmen where his lap goes when he stands
up. Now, "Frosh " Davis is a very human
being and he failed on the question. Of course,
a "Frosh " mi ght fail on any question and usually do.
The next event on the program was the
feature of the evening. This was Heaven for
the uppgrelaismen and (well for the freshmen)
as long as they took it in the right spirit.
Th ese con siderate North Ha ll dweller s ran a
gauntlet of paddles and then entertained with
leap-frog.
Following their recreation period , they were
all asked to take off their shoes, (what a dis gusting subject), tie them together and throw
on a pile. They were lined up in a straight
line about twenty yards away from this pile
of leather. At a given signal a thundering
horde of forty freshman ch arged to save their
soles, (leather) After all of the charging
maniacs had recovered their shoes they retired
to North Hall. "Frosh" Jenkins told why
th e class of '32 was th e b est class th at ever

New desks have been placed in all rooms on
third floor. The whole building has been
cleaned and repainted since last season. Also,
a fine tower h as been built on the South East

Revocation
Boys

Jimmy Davis , flowery autumnal bloom of
the Locker Room , possesses an imaginative
character which is probably unequaled in our
college. This unique character is constantly
reflected in our Jimmy 's conversation and
in his questions to teachers. Recently, when
Mr. Shortess , in physics class was discussing
steering wheels and at this particular incident
the amount of torque given by two hands on
the wheel , our bloom blossomed forth thus ,
"How does it work for one hand? " This
statement revealed Jimmy 's thou ghts to the
class. The question was perfectly legitimate
but the illegitimate part comes in answering the question , "Wli:i t was Jimmy doing
with the other hand? " Dear reader , murder will out. Watch for Jimmy 's confession
in the next issue.
"Pretty, fond , adoptions Christendoms
That blinking Cupid gossips. "

Women 's Stud ent Government
Association
The opehing of the fall term of school this
year; foiind the wheels of practically all student organizations in motion. One of the
chief organizations is the Girl's Student Government Association. Several of the old
members were re-elected this year , while
new members are now filling the places of
those girls who graduated or did not return
to school. Elections were held the second
week of school and the results of the election
were as follows: President , Peg Schwartz;
Vice-President , Loretta Fleming; Senior
representative of the four year course , Cora
Frank; Represntative of the third year of the
four year course , Cathrine Fleming; Sophomore representative , Dorothy Voight; Representatives of the Seniors of the two year
course, Mabel Highfield , Rachel Gething,
Peg Higgins , Muriel Taylor. As yet the
Freshmen have not elected their representatives , but we hope they will get together real
soon and do so.
The aim of the W. S. G. A. is to secure
closer relationship between the faculty and
students of our Alma Mater. Each class
elects representatives from its group and it is
the duty of these girls to settle minor disputes
and questions among the individual students.
In this way each girl feels that she is more
responsible for the things she does, and that
her iellow classwomen are all striving with
her to make things more on a fellowship
basis.
Then , too , the W. S. G. A. has appointed
several committees whose combined aims is
to better the living conditions in , and around
the girl's dormitory . One of these committees is the Finance Committee. These girls
have the power of giving people and organizations the right to sell anything in the
Dormitory . The girls on this committee are;
Peg Oswald , chainnan; Muriel Taylor , Esther Harter , Grace Baskerville and Rachel
Gething.
Another important committee is the Fire
Drill Committee. Martha Laird is the chairman and her assistants are: Muriel Jones ,
Anna Farrel , Marjorie Ely, Elizabeth L.
Williams. Quite often during the school

Y. W. G. A. Meets
Y. W. C. A. meeting of October 3, was
opened with a song service. After this the
members were entertained with a reading,
"Don't Be What You Ain't," by Margaret
Davis.
The scripture taken from John 1 and 2 was
r ead by th e leader , Louise Hewitt who then
spoke on the topic of "Fellowship". She
urged each to "live in fellowship and harmony
and have faith—faith in our school and faith
in our fr iends," and most important , to "be
true to our friend s and to our selves and love
one another ".
In speaking on this same topic of Fellowship , Ma ry Laird told the club to "make
friends by learning th e likes and dislikes of
others. We should make friends not only
among our fellow students but also among the
various members of the faculty. We should be
friends to the lonesome ones around us; in
fact , we really should try to be friend s to all."
The meeting was closed with the friendship
circle , and the singing of the "Y" song , Blest
Be the Tie that Binds.

Senior Girls ' Hocke y
The Senior Girls ' Hockey tournament has
begun. The first games were played last
week.
" The tournament is made up of seven teams ,
the teams playing once a week. The games
are played on Monday afternoons after 4:10,
The captains are Misses Bowman , Fleming,
. Oliver , Archibald , Basken , Goshinski and
Jarzenbowicz. .
On Monday afternoon Goshinski's team
beat Bowman 's team. The score was 3-0.
Oliver 's team was beaten by Jarzenbowicz 's,
the score being 3-0. The closest and most
exciting game of the afternoon was the game
between Fleming 's and Archibald's teams.
The score was 1-0 in favor of Fleming.
Only five members of Archibald's team reported for the game. Miss McCannon acted
as goal keeper for the losing team. Altogether it was a very hard fought game for the
losers showed very fine fighting spirit.

Freshmen Boy 's Party

Really senior men , it isn 't at all fair for
the W. S. G. A and Y. W. C. A. committees
to leave you out on all their parties. You 'll
j ust have to get out and get all hot and bothered picking posies for the next school functions or you won 't be invited to the next
party . You see, the Freshmen Interior Decorators did pull something over on you when
they recived invitations to attend the party
given in their honor by the above committees. This all happened Thursday evening,
September the twentieth , at six o 'clock , in
case you don 't know all the caupus news, and
everyone really and truly enjoyed themselves.
Some sang, and some pretended to sing.
Each table was called upon to do a stunt of
some sort and confidentially I think Miss
Turner and Mr. Stier should have won first
prize. The tables were beautifully decorated with brown-eyed Susans and candles , and
I am sure it was a party never to be forgotten
by those present.

year we are to have fire drills. This committee will appoint fire marshals and helpers ,
whose duty is to make the fire drills more
systematic and of quicker action.
The House Committee is the last , but by
no means the least in importance. It is the
duty of Mandane O'Connell , as chairman ,
Dorothy Kisner , Evelyn Oliver , Esther Wruble, Alice Pennington , Elizebeth H. Williams and Dorothea O'Connell as assistants ,
to look after the general appearance of Waller Hall.
It is their duty to see that our window sills
are not a branch of A. & P. Stores; to see
that the irons are in working condition; to
look after the furniture in the lobby 's; to
look after the halls and lavatories on all
floors. They are to report the misuse of any
of the above places and the breakage of any
such school property .
Of course, practically all the Freshmen
girls are very well acquainted with the customs committee. Loretta Fleming is the
chairman , and her assistants are: Florence
Regan , Peg Schwarz , Peg Higgins , Dot Voigt
and Cora Frank.
All these committees were very successfu l
last year , and because many of the old members are back on the same committees and
know the work , we have promise of a very
successfu l school year. With the cooperation of the members of the student body and
the faculty we should have a College which
is lip-to p in every respect , both socially and
scholastically .
