CALIFORNIA UPSETS BLOOM 6-0
Second Period Bloom's Waterloo
HALLOWEEN PARTY A COLORFUL AFFAIR
Dance Enjoyed by All
All of the weird mystic of the college shone
forth at the Halloween party and dance held
in the gymnasium Monday night. The dancers became a whirl of weird spinning figures
weaving in and out beneath the dim lights.
Personified , there were ghosts and goblins,
smajl girls and boys, old. men and women,
fairies in shimmering gowns and thugs and
tramps in anything they could wear. Among
the latter group, red noses were prominent.
The gymnasium was decorated in orange
and bl ack colors and the lights were covered
with crepe paper of the same colors giving
everything a very weird appearance. The
dancing began at seven-thirty and by sevenforty-five the gymnasium was crowded with
each person posing and talking the role that
his costume represented. About eight-thirty
the "Grand March" was held. It was formed in the gym and fr om ther e, the "marching
mystics" proceeded to the judges stand in the
lobby. The march was led by "Sailor" Sam
Fortner.
Orval Palsgrove received the prize for being
the funniest dressed boy. He was dressed in
an outfit of the worst type. Irvin Zarfoss
was dressed as a girl and was given honorable
mention because of his beautiful Venus-like
appearance. Lawrence Ford, with the aid of
several North Hall bed sheets, would have
been mistaken for Caesar himself, had it not
been for his flaming hair.
Miss Margaret DeCosmo was chosen as
the best dressed girl. She was attired in a
beautiful blue costume. Miss Muriel Jones
took the prize as being the funniest dressed
girl. She called herself a "Knight of Bath"
and wore a very original costume composed
of towels, wash cloths and a few "some thing
or others". On her head she wore a small
soap box and everyone wondered why she did
not yell, "Keep that School-girl Complexion ".
The boys of the Freshman class put on a
humorous act in the form of a foot-ball game,
taken with a slow motion camera. It was
characteristic of the "Frosh", this slow stuff,
but it was enj oyed by the audience. "Frosh"
Mooney starred by doing a "passing out" act
In spite of wind and weather and defying
the disadvantages of a long trip. Bloomsburg 's foot ball aggregation lined up against
a rangy lot of boys from California Normal ?
with the intention of leaving a record to be
remembered by the ?port fans of Southwestern Pennsylvania.
Although California succeeded in driving
through center for a lone touchdown in the
second quarter , they will never forget the opposition given them by the Maroon and
Gold and the (scare ) received before the
whistle ended the half with Bloomsburg 's
ball four yards from the goal.
Maroon and Gold fight was never lacking
even in the last quarter when the Jong tiresome trip was decidedly taking its toll. After
the first touchdown California never got farther than Bloomsburg 's twenty yard line.
Three times California 's safety-man was
forced to show his efficiency when Bloomsburg 's backs cleared all other opposition ,and
once the bad condition of the field , alone ,
was the only thing that kept "Heck" Mowrer from taking the ball over for a touchdown. Clearing all but the safety-man
"Heck" side-stepped and avoided the tackle, only to slip and fall in the heavy mud
which covered the field.

Team Given Great Send Off
With a display of spirit unprecedented in the
history of the school , the foot ball team left
for California , in a blaze of glory, and backed by the support and good will of the entire undergraduate body. Immediately after
dinner the school gathered in front of Carver
Hall to participate in the celebration. A holiday spirit was present, throughout the entire
group, or as "Walt Winchell of Broadway
Fam e" would say , "They were prepared to
make a Wh oopee."
The surprise of the evening was the advent
of the band. At a given signal , out they
came—trumpets blaring—cymbals crashing—
the gallan t d rum ma jo r , who was none other
than Bob Dew , held true to form and led his

DR. KEHR SPEAKS ON TRIP TO EUROPE
Sees Edinbur gh Graduation
On Wednesday, October 24, our chapel program was presented by Dr. Kehr, who sp ^ke
on her trip to Europe this summer.
She said it was very difficult to find a s lbject that would not be too broad for chapel
time; so she finally had chosen one feat are
from each country. The first was from Edinburgh , Scotland. At this place, she saw the
graduation exercises of the University of
Edinburgh. They were different in many
ways from an American commencement, especially in th at they wer e a time of rejoicing
and fun , instead of a solemn and dignifie d
performance.
At London, Engl and , she went to see Parliament. From her description, one could almost picture the House of Lords and the
House of Commons. Dr Kehr was very fortunate in being able to witness a meeting of
the House of Common s, t h rough knowing a
member of that body. However, one very
amusing incident , in her eyes, at least , occurred. At four o'clock the meeting adj ourned
in order to have tea. England certainly likes
her tea.
In Paris, France, Dr. Kehr, said is the
great cathedral of Notre Dame. She described the impressions she got on first seeing it ,
and they certainly seemed real to us. From
one of the towers of Notre Dame, a very good
view of part of the city can be seen such as;
the square, the Arc d^ Trioimphe, the Pantheon, the Church of the Sacred Heart and the
parks and gardens of the Champs Elysees.
To Switzerland we were next taken. The
place described to us was Interlaken , one of
the beauty spots of Switzerland. Beginning
here, a railroad runs through a mountain to
Italy, the greatest underground railroad in the
world. Dr. Kehr also spoke of climbing a
mountain, and her experiences and feelings.
It was made very realistic.
The exercises were throughly enjoyed by
all, for they made everyone feel as though he
had taken the trip.
ARBOR DAY OBSER VED IN CHAPEL
Maroon and Gold to Prevail on Campus
Mr. Hartline, in connection with the Nature Study Club, presented a fine Arbor Day
program to us in chapel, Friday, October 26.
To begin, the student body sang "Trees"
which was very appropriate for the occasion.
Mr. Wolever then gave us some idea of the
Arbor Day program throughout the state, and
the part everyone should play.
Mr. Haring gave us an idea of the plan
Mr. Hartline has for beautifying the campus.

SUPPORT THE BAND
This institution has often felt the need of a
band at athletic contests , pep meetings and
various other occasions. With school spirit
at a higher pitch than it has ever been before
the time is ripe to have one.
The excellent work of the West Chester
band , which accompanied the foot ball team
from that school and entertained us so royally, strongly pointed to our own weakness
in that one respect and made us resolve to
remedy it.
On October 17, in chapel , Mr. Fenstemacher, who had been selected as director,
sent out a call for members. At the first
meeting sixteen people responded; a few
things were discussed and a short rehearsal
was held. The band is not as well balanced
as Mr. Fenstemacher would like to have it,
but since it is new and must be started some
time he feels that it will improve materially
before long.
The band is not for a few men who are

excellent players. We want them of course ,
but everyone who is able to play a band instrument should join. If anyone who plays
an instrument has not reported to Mr. Fenstemacher and wishes to join , they can do so
when they meet on Wednesday at 4:15 p. m.
in room forty.
A few members of the band put in their
first appearance Friday evening when the
school gave the foot ball team a rousing send
off". Their first appearance was fine and we
hope to hear from them in the near future.
GIRLS
Fluffy the mouse returned to the girl 's
locker room after a week's vacation. Louise
Meloy was scared so badly that she had to go
to the hospital.
Dot Brobst takes advantage of all the electri c light plugs to curl her hair, and moves
the mirror all over Science Hall.
Quite a few of the locker room girls are
planning to go to Lock Haven on Saturday
to see our football team match their strength
and wits against the eleven of that place.
Let's hope our team comes through with the
goods this time.
This column noticed that many of the locker room girl 's stayed for the Halloween party
on Monday night.

Y. W. C. A. Meets
The Y. W. C. A. had their regular, weekly meeting on Oct. 24 at 6:40 P. M. in
Science Hall . Muriel Jones, the leader
opened the meeting with the reading of
I Cor. 18. Following this Mrs. Radcliffe,
the speaker for the evening led the club in
prayer.
The topic of the evening was the one big
thin g in life, Love. "We must have this one
thing to succeed in life, and as Paul tells us ,
without it we have nothing . If we truly love
we will unconsciously fulfill the rest of the
commandments.
"Love is the atmosphere in which faith
and hope can burn. « Love creates character.
The world needs our love. The peculiar
thin g about it is that the cure for love 's mistakes is more love. The reason we blunder
is that we don 't have enough love. "
"Through love bits of copper are made
gold; the world is made better and happier.
Love is imperishable and never failing . It
never goes out-of-date. Love won 't get us
to Heaven; for it is heaven. Therefore we
should be, give and do more for love. "
The meeting was closed with the singing
of a hymn of Love by Matherson and the
repeating of the Christian Endeavor Benediction.

MEM ORIES
I wonder how many students have noticed
th e Noetling Memorial Tablet?' It is on the
wall opposite the stairway of the first floor of
the Training School. Professor Noetling was
a teacher here for twenty-three years, but his
real home was in Selinsgrove, where he taught
also. After the Civil War he conducted a
girl s' school there and, la ter , a county normal
school. Then Missionary Institute was founded; it was the beginning of Susquehanna University , a co-educational institute now located
in another part of the town.
The building in which Mr. Noetling taught
in Selinsgrove is a large oblong brick building
three and a half stories high, built next too
the original homestead, which is much older.
The bricks are mellow with age and the windows are hugh and many-paned. The front
entrances ar e unusually well-proportioned.
Several older ladies of th e town ha ve told
me that th ey att ended the Female Seminary
when they were young girls. The sweet old
lady who is the mistress of the home now is
the widow of Professor Noetling. Mr. Noetling died about ten years ago.
I wanted to kn ow about the school t h at
used to be and Mrs. Noetling told me about
it and a bit of her romance there. She lived
in a small town on the southern border of
Pennsylvania until th e Civil War wa s over ,
when she and her widowed mother moved to
Selinsgrove. There the daughter enrolled in
the girls' school but she soon fell in love with
and married one of her professors, Mr. Noetling.
Mrs. Noetling also told me she was in the
audience at the dedication of the Gettysburg
Soldier's Cemetery and there saw Lincoln and
heard his now world-famous address.
Mrs. Noetling now lives in the old homestead while the main building is tenented.
The attic of the main building is in its original state and is very dusty and interesting.
Narrow winding stairs lead to a charming
little, cupola, from which there is a lovely view
of the country.
In that building we had an apartment last
winter. One snowy Sunday afternoon a girl
friend and I, unable to find anything else to
do, decided upon exploring the old attic. We
went all over the attic of the main building
and found various old things. There was a
wooden cradle, which probably has rocked
. several generations of children to sleep.
Much old broken furniture lay about . The
desks and seats of the old school stood as
though awaiting pupils.
Then , coming down the stairs on the third
floor we found a door ajar that always before
had been locked. In we went (naturall y).
A pitch -black hall but as we had some matches
we lit them one at a time and felt our way
along. Only two doors were in the hall , one
on either side. We looked first on the left
side, not much but old broken furniture in an
absolutely black room. But the door to the
right opened to an attic dimly lighted by tiny
iron-latticed windows. All sorts of things
were here : ancient stoves, boxes much anti-
quated furniture, and an old spinning wheel.
Helen and I rummaged around a bit but
at last got tired of it and left. We had j ust
arrived at our rooms when I found I had lost
a comb from my hair . We went up again
but didn 't see it on the stairs so we looked in
the righthand attic room. We assumed that
thi s was th e atti c of th e old h ouse, since it
was on a level with th e third floor of the main
building and was too far away to be part of
it. We found the comb in that room and
- casually looked around a bit. Suddenly Helen said , "Sh-—", I stopped. We heard a pe- •
culiar low swishing sound coming nearer-nearer-the ghostiest sound I ever heard! I was
fr ightened and squeezed Helen's arm pretty
tightly, I guess. At last the sound stopped
just before our door, which had swung almost
shut. It slowly-came-open-and there stood
Mrs. Noetling wearing soft-soled slippers,
which had made the noise. She simply looked at us, miserable trespassers ! At last I
managed to stammer but something about
"the darling old spinning wheel" and away
—A Freshman Co-ed
we went.
From a Dormitor y Window
The front campus now presents a beautiful
view. The stately trees adorning the walks
g ently rustle their new robes of russet, brown
and gold , while a few lowlier sisters, still clad
in the garb of summer , stand wistfully apart.
Autumn has come and has transformed the
campus from the glowing beauty of summer
to its own softer and subtler hues. The dome
of Carver Hall , standin g forth in beauty and
dignity, holds the eye. Far distant mountains loom upward against the horizon and
fill the watcher with a vague restlessness , a
spirit of Wanderlust. At dusk , the campus
itself , smooth and velvety and covered with
an avalanch of leaves, becomes a veritable
fair yland. Hobgoblins and sprite , pixies and
elves lurk under the leaves and , when the
eye of mortal watches not , careen madly and
sway with the utmost grace before the dais of
the elusive Queen Mab .

Bloomsburg 's aerial attack kept California
guessing and proved a decided offensive in
spite of the heavy rain. "Red" Creasy successfully took in a pass for 35 yards and Heck
Mowrer got under a toss good for twenty
yards. Short passes had a great deal to do
with Bloomsburgs 11 first downs. California
who did one better made most of them by
hitting the line. Their drives throu gh guard
seemed to be their best offense and they
work it continually in spite of.the intense opposition offered by the Bloomsburg squad.
Bloomsburg 's greatest drive was when
"Tom " Kirker smasked through tackle for
40 yards and "Heck" Mowrer tore off a good
8 yards in the next play and brought the ball
to the four yard line. The whistle sounded
as the boys from Bloomsburg lined up to
fight their way over for a touchdown.
Both teams sized up evenly . It was a
good game well worth the attention of any
uninterested spectator and although Bloomsburg came off at the short end of a 6--0 score,
our college can well be proud of the showing they made.
The trip was made by train , the boys leaving with a royal send off Friday night. The
town of Bloomsburg will never forget the
cheering from up on the hill when the collage football men left for Southwestern Normal.
The boy 's friendliness on the train assured
them of one loyal supporter of the Maroon
and Gold in the form of a Pullman Porter
who cheered them from the sidelines with
such jest that the football men felt well supplied with a "cheering section ".
A great deal of mention is made of the fine
reception given our foot ba ll men by the
students of California Norm al.

proved to be an ideal host.

One of the largest and most popular clubs
in the school is the well known Dram atic Club
which meets every Thursday evening at six
forty for a social and business, as well as an
educational period.
Our est eemed sponsor , Miss Alice Johnson ,
is on the job again this year an d ha s the ball
rolling so that several one act plays are constantly ready for production at the Dramatic
Club meetings.
The m embership of this club is now well
over a hundred. We are assured of plenty of
good material to dr aw from in putting on, the
different annual plays which have made this
school famous in the surrounding communities.
A short resume of our last m eet ing will
show you the type of work being carried on
by our organiz ation ,
The meeting was called to order by our
honorable president, Maynard Pennington.
The minutes of the last meet ing were read
and approved . Old and new business was
called for and discussed. This part of the
meeting was followed by a play entitled ,"The
M an of the Bowler Hat ". The play was directed by Miss Maloney. The cast of characters were as follo ws:
The Man in the Bowler Hat=Maynard
Pennington ', Hero—Arthur McKenzie; Heroine—Marg Conway ; Johns—Jack Hall; Mary
—Grace Baskerville; Chief Villian—Walter
Siesko ; Bad Man—Jasper Fritz.
The play was in the form of a melodramatic force and was well received by the club
and noted as a good all round play.
After the play was over criticisms both
good and bad were received by the president
for the good of all members of the club. After
a brief discussion of the play the meeting was
regularly adjourned.

to get the women vote due to his loud neckties and the popularity of cough drops. Hoover ought to get their vote due to his experience in selling vacuum cleaners and keeping
the women thin during the World War. We
do, however, predict that if Hoover gets all
the votes he'll win and if Smith gets them
"Lemons Ford"
he'll win.

HALLOWEEN PARTY A COLORFUL AFFAIR
The Delta Phi Sigma society entertained
its new sponsors at a dinner party at the Elk's
Home on Thursday evening, October twentyfifth. The table decorations were the sorority colors, blue and white , with an individual
rose bud at each place.
Dorothy Voigt, the president , gave a short
talk on the worth of sororities to the school ,
and how a small sofority may truly become
big if its members really work for it. Isabel
Chelosky, the secretary, talked on the founding of the sorority and its history up to the
present date. Miss Patterson one of the new
advisers, gave a very delightful talk on her
various trips to Europe and Dr. Kehr told
many of her interesting experiences while in
the old world. The sorority regretted very
m uch the absence of Miss McHenry, the
other new advisor, and also the members
who are teaching in Berwick.
Those present were: Miss Patterson , Dr.
Kehr , Meltha Warmouth , Marjori e Ely,
Dorothy Williams , Dorothy Voigt , Isabel
Chelosky and Clara Cadwalader.

dressing the game. The boys from the locker
room gave a freak show which was directed
by John Harry. The actor in this show surely must have felt at home.
The cider (two days old) was enjoyed by
the dancers, and they ate all of the doughnuts that were served, even the holes.
The music was very good or even "hot"
and was furnished by Alexander 's Orchestra.
About ten thirty they sounded Taps and the
party broke up, everyone confessing to a
wonderful time.

ARBOR DAY OBSERVED IN CHAPEL
continued from page 1
One of the chief plans is to have iris of maroon and gold around Carver Hall. Around
the memorial there is to be a star of pansies
and iris, maroon and gold colors, and inside
the star are to be tulips of maroon and gold.
There are, already, differen t trees depicting
the colors, such as; the golden rain, the copper
beech, the forsythia and the barberry bush.
Mr. Creasy spoke on diseases and insects
that destroy trees, and how these may be done
away with. A poplar tree was shown on the
campus that was destroyed by a scale which
saps the strength from the tree. Mr. Hartline
has tried to do away with the pests by spraying the trees.
Miss Martha Laird spoke on the uses of
trees. A slide was shown of the pine trees
around the memorial, each dedicated to an
alumnus of the school who fell in the World
War. Trees also furnish us with firewood ,
shelter and beauty. They are our neighbors
and spiritual friends. Miss Laird , to illu strate
her talk read two poems, one by Miss Stetson, "Tree Feelings", and another by Edgar
Guest.
This fine program was closed with singing
an adapted song to the tune of "America '*.

The small room just off the lobby on first
floor and the second floor lobby have been
tastefully equipped as smoking rooms. The
fellows can show their appreciation by taking
good care of the rooms, The rules for their
use are as follows :
I. The smoking rooms are not to be used as
an excuse for loud talking, loud laughing or
noise of any sort at any time, particularly
after seven fifteen.
II. The smoking rooms are closed at 11:45
P. M.
III. Remember the fire hazard. Be sure
"butts" are out. There is no excuse for
"butts" or tobacco being on the floor.
IV. The continuance of the smoking rooms
depend on the care shown in their use.
A number of new dr essers arrived at Nort h
Hall last week and have b een placed in rooms
on second floor. The ones discarded from
those rooms were salvaged by the men who
were not fortunate enough to get a new one
and could get something better than those
which they had.
Charles John, a f ormer day student , is now
staying in the dorm, on account of a broken
ankle which he recei ved whil e refereeing a
game of basketball.
Yes sir ! It was a worthwhile eireys here in
the dorm , while the fellows were getting
ready for the party and j ust before they left
for the gym. Monday evening.
The male constituancy of the day students
of the College are finding it hard to become
accustomed to their underground quarters.
But in spite of this handicap they are still
showing plenty of spirit. Jap Fritz is seemingly making good at selling candy to the
football players for his stock continues to
grow larger. Maybe before long he will honor
us with a show case. His opposition, in the
form of John Dyer, our "blond red head",
seems to be making a valiant effort to hold
his own in the business.
Stub Pennington finds it very hard to believe there is such a thing as honesty any
more after losing a locker key and numerous
other articles mysteriously a few days ago.
Many of the fellows are out for sports and
are giving a good account of themselves. A
large number of the cross country track team
including the Coach comes from our quarters.
Also an oth er thing which makes us famous
is our referees who go from this place all over
the cou ntry t o r efere e th e country school
basketball games. They seem to be making
a success as well as a fortune at it.

Farrow 's team hasn 't lost a game yet this
season. C. McEneany 's team lost their first
game to E. Keller 's team.
W itkowski of team 4 and Dieffenbach of
t eam 8, as goal keepers did very fine work.
Kliscker at center on team 5 was very good at
goal shooting, her distribution was good. On
team 6 McMichael has taken Jenkin's place
at center. Jenkins is now play ing left inside.
This makes a very strong combination .
Bubb of team 9 is an enthusiastic player,
but she hits too hard. Harris of team 13
was out of the game on account of injuries to
her leg. Culp took her place at center. This
made a weak spot in the team 's defense. But
she did well considering th at she has been
playing on the defense all season.
Farrow on team 16 did good at shooting
for the goal. They were clean shots cutting
through Pecora 's defense. Hoen at inside
and Farrow made a good combination.

Lives of great men oft remind us,
We may make our lives sublime.
Men like Woolworth so they tell us,
Started life without a dime!
Jake Nitwit was disgusted. Life had booted him about quite a bit in his simple life
time. There was his father who had been
Dean in the Institute for The Advancement
of Left Handed Palmer Method Writing,
surely with such noble ancestry one could
advance in the world—but , nay his father betrayed his trust by taking a drink because of
the strain his work put upon him , and he
had no alternative but to take the funds of
the school and flee.
Jake had tried many kinds of work but he
was not fitted for coping with the ways of the
world. College had once suggested itself to
him but since he had neither "sheepskin "
(coat) nor "racoon " he had abandoned the
idea ; besides since he had spent about 15 or

16 years in the first three grammar grades he
was not sufficiently prepared , (so they said)
to enter College. Love, too , had entered
his life in the form of a comely Eskimo
maiden who was engaged in advertisin g
Cliquot Club , but since he had epitheal tissue
of the scalp (dandruff) and also comedon
(consult Pompian Crea m advfs.) and did
not smoke Lucky Strikes ,he was decidedly out
of luck. Instead she eloped with a traveling
man who could use parlor magic , and who
had PUNCH , PEP and PERSONALITY!
Well , to make a long story longer our hero
just thought and thought and thought and
thought and thought and thought and
thou ght— By this time he was 13 years old
and nearing manhood' s estate. He began
wondering about the future. He had no
trainin g, was penniless , and was so uneducated that he could barely read the captions
in a talkin g movie. Since things were in
such a pitiful state he could do but one thing.
He began to write text-books on algebra ,
science, and economics and so great was the
demand for these works that he soon became rich , and was given an honora ry degree
with a string of letters containin g mostly the
letter X. He also established a correspondence school from which he became very
wealthy. BUT he married 3 chorus maidens
who promptly separated him from his money, and had it not been for his step-father who
later adopted him , he would have gone to
the dogs.
And so we leave our hero comtortably
nestled in the poor house with a moral: "A
penny slaved for is a bad example for the
rest of the lazy gents. "

HALLOWEEN PARTY A COLORFUL AFFAIR
Dance Enjoyed by All
All of the weird mystic of the college shone
forth at the Halloween party and dance held
in the gymnasium Monday night. The dancers became a whirl of weird spinning figures
weaving in and out beneath the dim lights.
Personified , there were ghosts and goblins,
smajl girls and boys, old. men and women,
fairies in shimmering gowns and thugs and
tramps in anything they could wear. Among
the latter group, red noses were prominent.
The gymnasium was decorated in orange
and bl ack colors and the lights were covered
with crepe paper of the same colors giving
everything a very weird appearance. The
dancing began at seven-thirty and by sevenforty-five the gymnasium was crowded with
each person posing and talking the role that
his costume represented. About eight-thirty
the "Grand March" was held. It was formed in the gym and fr om ther e, the "marching
mystics" proceeded to the judges stand in the
lobby. The march was led by "Sailor" Sam
Fortner.
Orval Palsgrove received the prize for being
the funniest dressed boy. He was dressed in
an outfit of the worst type. Irvin Zarfoss
was dressed as a girl and was given honorable
mention because of his beautiful Venus-like
appearance. Lawrence Ford, with the aid of
several North Hall bed sheets, would have
been mistaken for Caesar himself, had it not
been for his flaming hair.
Miss Margaret DeCosmo was chosen as
the best dressed girl. She was attired in a
beautiful blue costume. Miss Muriel Jones
took the prize as being the funniest dressed
girl. She called herself a "Knight of Bath"
and wore a very original costume composed
of towels, wash cloths and a few "some thing
or others". On her head she wore a small
soap box and everyone wondered why she did
not yell, "Keep that School-girl Complexion ".
The boys of the Freshman class put on a
humorous act in the form of a foot-ball game,
taken with a slow motion camera. It was
characteristic of the "Frosh", this slow stuff,
but it was enj oyed by the audience. "Frosh"
Mooney starred by doing a "passing out" act
In spite of wind and weather and defying
the disadvantages of a long trip. Bloomsburg 's foot ball aggregation lined up against
a rangy lot of boys from California Normal ?
with the intention of leaving a record to be
remembered by the ?port fans of Southwestern Pennsylvania.
Although California succeeded in driving
through center for a lone touchdown in the
second quarter , they will never forget the opposition given them by the Maroon and
Gold and the (scare ) received before the
whistle ended the half with Bloomsburg 's
ball four yards from the goal.
Maroon and Gold fight was never lacking
even in the last quarter when the Jong tiresome trip was decidedly taking its toll. After
the first touchdown California never got farther than Bloomsburg 's twenty yard line.
Three times California 's safety-man was
forced to show his efficiency when Bloomsburg 's backs cleared all other opposition ,and
once the bad condition of the field , alone ,
was the only thing that kept "Heck" Mowrer from taking the ball over for a touchdown. Clearing all but the safety-man
"Heck" side-stepped and avoided the tackle, only to slip and fall in the heavy mud
which covered the field.
continued on page 4
Team Given Great Send Off
With a display of spirit unprecedented in the
history of the school , the foot ball team left
for California , in a blaze of glory, and backed by the support and good will of the entire undergraduate body. Immediately after
dinner the school gathered in front of Carver
Hall to participate in the celebration. A holiday spirit was present, throughout the entire
group, or as "Walt Winchell of Broadway
Fam e" would say , "They were prepared to
make a Wh oopee."
The surprise of the evening was the advent
of the band. At a given signal , out they
came—trumpets blaring—cymbals crashing—
the gallan t d rum ma jo r , who was none other
than Bob Dew , held true to form and led his

DR. KEHR SPEAKS ON TRIP TO EUROPE
Sees Edinbur gh Graduation
On Wednesday, October 24, our chapel program was presented by Dr. Kehr, who sp ^ke
on her trip to Europe this summer.
She said it was very difficult to find a s lbject that would not be too broad for chapel
time; so she finally had chosen one feat are
from each country. The first was from Edinburgh , Scotland. At this place, she saw the
graduation exercises of the University of
Edinburgh. They were different in many
ways from an American commencement, especially in th at they wer e a time of rejoicing
and fun , instead of a solemn and dignifie d
performance.
At London, Engl and , she went to see Parliament. From her description, one could almost picture the House of Lords and the
House of Commons. Dr Kehr was very fortunate in being able to witness a meeting of
the House of Common s, t h rough knowing a
member of that body. However, one very
amusing incident , in her eyes, at least , occurred. At four o'clock the meeting adj ourned
in order to have tea. England certainly likes
her tea.
In Paris, France, Dr. Kehr, said is the
great cathedral of Notre Dame. She described the impressions she got on first seeing it ,
and they certainly seemed real to us. From
one of the towers of Notre Dame, a very good
view of part of the city can be seen such as;
the square, the Arc d^ Trioimphe, the Pantheon, the Church of the Sacred Heart and the
parks and gardens of the Champs Elysees.
To Switzerland we were next taken. The
place described to us was Interlaken , one of
the beauty spots of Switzerland. Beginning
here, a railroad runs through a mountain to
Italy, the greatest underground railroad in the
world. Dr. Kehr also spoke of climbing a
mountain, and her experiences and feelings.
It was made very realistic.
The exercises were throughly enjoyed by
all, for they made everyone feel as though he
had taken the trip.
ARBOR DAY OBSER VED IN CHAPEL
Maroon and Gold to Prevail on Campus
Mr. Hartline, in connection with the Nature Study Club, presented a fine Arbor Day
program to us in chapel, Friday, October 26.
To begin, the student body sang "Trees"
which was very appropriate for the occasion.
Mr. Wolever then gave us some idea of the
Arbor Day program throughout the state, and
the part everyone should play.
Mr. Haring gave us an idea of the plan
Mr. Hartline has for beautifying the campus.

SUPPORT THE BAND
This institution has often felt the need of a
band at athletic contests , pep meetings and
various other occasions. With school spirit
at a higher pitch than it has ever been before
the time is ripe to have one.
The excellent work of the West Chester
band , which accompanied the foot ball team
from that school and entertained us so royally, strongly pointed to our own weakness
in that one respect and made us resolve to
remedy it.
On October 17, in chapel , Mr. Fenstemacher, who had been selected as director,
sent out a call for members. At the first
meeting sixteen people responded; a few
things were discussed and a short rehearsal
was held. The band is not as well balanced
as Mr. Fenstemacher would like to have it,
but since it is new and must be started some
time he feels that it will improve materially
before long.
The band is not for a few men who are

excellent players. We want them of course ,
but everyone who is able to play a band instrument should join. If anyone who plays
an instrument has not reported to Mr. Fenstemacher and wishes to join , they can do so
when they meet on Wednesday at 4:15 p. m.
in room forty.
A few members of the band put in their
first appearance Friday evening when the
school gave the foot ball team a rousing send
off". Their first appearance was fine and we
hope to hear from them in the near future.
GIRLS
Fluffy the mouse returned to the girl 's
locker room after a week's vacation. Louise
Meloy was scared so badly that she had to go
to the hospital.
Dot Brobst takes advantage of all the electri c light plugs to curl her hair, and moves
the mirror all over Science Hall.
Quite a few of the locker room girls are
planning to go to Lock Haven on Saturday
to see our football team match their strength
and wits against the eleven of that place.
Let's hope our team comes through with the
goods this time.
This column noticed that many of the locker room girl 's stayed for the Halloween party
on Monday night.

Y. W. C. A. Meets
The Y. W. C. A. had their regular, weekly meeting on Oct. 24 at 6:40 P. M. in
Science Hall . Muriel Jones, the leader
opened the meeting with the reading of
I Cor. 18. Following this Mrs. Radcliffe,
the speaker for the evening led the club in
prayer.
The topic of the evening was the one big
thin g in life, Love. "We must have this one
thing to succeed in life, and as Paul tells us ,
without it we have nothing . If we truly love
we will unconsciously fulfill the rest of the
commandments.
"Love is the atmosphere in which faith
and hope can burn. « Love creates character.
The world needs our love. The peculiar
thin g about it is that the cure for love 's mistakes is more love. The reason we blunder
is that we don 't have enough love. "
"Through love bits of copper are made
gold; the world is made better and happier.
Love is imperishable and never failing . It
never goes out-of-date. Love won 't get us
to Heaven; for it is heaven. Therefore we
should be, give and do more for love. "
The meeting was closed with the singing
of a hymn of Love by Matherson and the
repeating of the Christian Endeavor Benediction.

MEM ORIES
I wonder how many students have noticed
th e Noetling Memorial Tablet?' It is on the
wall opposite the stairway of the first floor of
the Training School. Professor Noetling was
a teacher here for twenty-three years, but his
real home was in Selinsgrove, where he taught
also. After the Civil War he conducted a
girl s' school there and, la ter , a county normal
school. Then Missionary Institute was founded; it was the beginning of Susquehanna University , a co-educational institute now located
in another part of the town.
The building in which Mr. Noetling taught
in Selinsgrove is a large oblong brick building
three and a half stories high, built next too
the original homestead, which is much older.
The bricks are mellow with age and the windows are hugh and many-paned. The front
entrances ar e unusually well-proportioned.
Several older ladies of th e town ha ve told
me that th ey att ended the Female Seminary
when they were young girls. The sweet old
lady who is the mistress of the home now is
the widow of Professor Noetling. Mr. Noetling died about ten years ago.
I wanted to kn ow about the school t h at
used to be and Mrs. Noetling told me about
it and a bit of her romance there. She lived
in a small town on the southern border of
Pennsylvania until th e Civil War wa s over ,
when she and her widowed mother moved to
Selinsgrove. There the daughter enrolled in
the girls' school but she soon fell in love with
and married one of her professors, Mr. Noetling.
Mrs. Noetling also told me she was in the
audience at the dedication of the Gettysburg
Soldier's Cemetery and there saw Lincoln and
heard his now world-famous address.
Mrs. Noetling now lives in the old homestead while the main building is tenented.
The attic of the main building is in its original state and is very dusty and interesting.
Narrow winding stairs lead to a charming
little, cupola, from which there is a lovely view
of the country.
In that building we had an apartment last
winter. One snowy Sunday afternoon a girl
friend and I, unable to find anything else to
do, decided upon exploring the old attic. We
went all over the attic of the main building
and found various old things. There was a
wooden cradle, which probably has rocked
. several generations of children to sleep.
Much old broken furniture lay about . The
desks and seats of the old school stood as
though awaiting pupils.
Then , coming down the stairs on the third
floor we found a door ajar that always before
had been locked. In we went (naturall y).
A pitch -black hall but as we had some matches
we lit them one at a time and felt our way
along. Only two doors were in the hall , one
on either side. We looked first on the left
side, not much but old broken furniture in an
absolutely black room. But the door to the
right opened to an attic dimly lighted by tiny
iron-latticed windows. All sorts of things
were here : ancient stoves, boxes much anti-
quated furniture, and an old spinning wheel.
Helen and I rummaged around a bit but
at last got tired of it and left. We had j ust
arrived at our rooms when I found I had lost
a comb from my hair . We went up again
but didn 't see it on the stairs so we looked in
the righthand attic room. We assumed that
thi s was th e atti c of th e old h ouse, since it
was on a level with th e third floor of the main
building and was too far away to be part of
it. We found the comb in that room and
- casually looked around a bit. Suddenly Helen said , "Sh-—", I stopped. We heard a pe- •
culiar low swishing sound coming nearer-nearer-the ghostiest sound I ever heard! I was
fr ightened and squeezed Helen's arm pretty
tightly, I guess. At last the sound stopped
just before our door, which had swung almost
shut. It slowly-came-open-and there stood
Mrs. Noetling wearing soft-soled slippers,
which had made the noise. She simply looked at us, miserable trespassers ! At last I
managed to stammer but something about
"the darling old spinning wheel" and away
—A Freshman Co-ed
we went.
From a Dormitor y Window
The front campus now presents a beautiful
view. The stately trees adorning the walks
g ently rustle their new robes of russet, brown
and gold , while a few lowlier sisters, still clad
in the garb of summer , stand wistfully apart.
Autumn has come and has transformed the
campus from the glowing beauty of summer
to its own softer and subtler hues. The dome
of Carver Hall , standin g forth in beauty and
dignity, holds the eye. Far distant mountains loom upward against the horizon and
fill the watcher with a vague restlessness , a
spirit of Wanderlust. At dusk , the campus
itself , smooth and velvety and covered with
an avalanch of leaves, becomes a veritable
fair yland. Hobgoblins and sprite , pixies and
elves lurk under the leaves and , when the
eye of mortal watches not , careen madly and
sway with the utmost grace before the dais of
the elusive Queen Mab .

CALIFORNIA UPSETS BLOOM 6-0
continued from page 1
Bloomsburg 's aerial attack kept California
guessing and proved a decided offensive in
spite of the heavy rain. "Red" Creasy successfully took in a pass for 35 yards and Heck
Mowrer got under a toss good for twenty
yards. Short passes had a great deal to do
with Bloomsburgs 11 first downs. California
who did one better made most of them by
hitting the line. Their drives throu gh guard
seemed to be their best offense and they
work it continually in spite of.the intense opposition offered by the Bloomsburg squad.
Bloomsburg 's greatest drive was when
"Tom " Kirker smasked through tackle for
40 yards and "Heck" Mowrer tore off a good
8 yards in the next play and brought the ball
to the four yard line. The whistle sounded
as the boys from Bloomsburg lined up to
fight their way over for a touchdown.
Both teams sized up evenly . It was a
good game well worth the attention of any
uninterested spectator and although Bloomsburg came off at the short end of a 6--0 score,
our college can well be proud of the showing they made.
The trip was made by train , the boys leaving with a royal send off Friday night. The
town of Bloomsburg will never forget the
cheering from up on the hill when the collage football men left for Southwestern Normal.
The boy 's friendliness on the train assured
them of one loyal supporter of the Maroon
and Gold in the form of a Pullman Porter
who cheered them from the sidelines with
such jest that the football men felt well supplied with a "cheering section ".
A great deal of mention is made of the fine
reception given our foot ba ll men by the
students of California Norm al.
Bloomsburg was California 's guest and California
proved to be an ideal host.

One of the largest and most popular clubs
in the school is the well known Dram atic Club
which meets every Thursday evening at six
forty for a social and business, as well as an
educational period.
Our est eemed sponsor , Miss Alice Johnson ,
is on the job again this year an d ha s the ball
rolling so that several one act plays are constantly ready for production at the Dramatic
Club meetings.
The m embership of this club is now well
over a hundred. We are assured of plenty of
good material to dr aw from in putting on, the
different annual plays which have made this
school famous in the surrounding communities.
A short resume of our last m eet ing will
show you the type of work being carried on
by our organiz ation ,
The meeting was called to order by our
honorable president, Maynard Pennington.
The minutes of the last meet ing were read
and approved . Old and new business was
called for and discussed. This part of the
meeting was followed by a play entitled ,"The
M an of the Bowler Hat ". The play was directed by Miss Maloney. The cast of characters were as follo ws:
The Man in the Bowler Hat=Maynard
Pennington ', Hero—Arthur McKenzie; Heroine—Marg Conway ; Johns—Jack Hall; Mary
—Grace Baskerville; Chief Villian—Walter
Siesko ; Bad Man—Jasper Fritz.
The play was in the form of a melodramatic force and was well received by the club
and noted as a good all round play.
After the play was over criticisms both
good and bad were received by the president
for the good of all members of the club. After
a brief discussion of the play the meeting was
regularly adjourned.

The race for the coming Presidential elect ion looks ti ghter than two Scotchmen betting
their last nickle on a race horse. Senator
Mellon is cold concerning the election, whil e
Senator Pepper on the other hand is hot under the collar. Somebody said , "Ask Senator
Vare the votes will go". The Cabinet seems
Week and won't Work for Hoover. Mr. Kellog seems more concerned about Post Toasties
than about the coming election. Smith ought
to get the women vote due to his loud neckties and the popularity of cough drops. Hoover ought to get their vote due to his experience in selling vacuum cleaners and keeping
the women thin during the World War. We
do, however, predict that if Hoover gets all
the votes he'll win and if Smith gets them
"Lemons Ford"
he'll win.

HALLOWEEN PARTY A COLORFUL AFFAIR
The Delta Phi Sigma society entertained
its new sponsors at a dinner party at the Elk's
Home on Thursday evening, October twentyfifth. The table decorations were the sorority colors, blue and white , with an individual
rose bud at each place.
Dorothy Voigt, the president , gave a short
talk on the worth of sororities to the school ,
and how a small sofority may truly become
big if its members really work for it. Isabel
Chelosky, the secretary, talked on the founding of the sorority and its history up to the
present date. Miss Patterson one of the new
advisers, gave a very delightful talk on her
various trips to Europe and Dr. Kehr told
many of her interesting experiences while in
the old world. The sorority regretted very
m uch the absence of Miss McHenry, the
other new advisor, and also the members
who are teaching in Berwick.
Those present were: Miss Patterson , Dr.
Kehr , Meltha Warmouth , Marjori e Ely,
Dorothy Williams , Dorothy Voigt , Isabel
Chelosky and Clara Cadwalader.

The cider (two days old) was enjoyed by

The music was very good or even "hot"

About ten thirty they sounded Taps and the
party broke up, everyone confessing to a
wonderful time.

ARBOR DAY OBSERVED IN CHAPEL
continued from page 1
One of the chief plans is to have iris of maroon and gold around Carver Hall. Around
the memorial there is to be a star of pansies
and iris, maroon and gold colors, and inside
the star are to be tulips of maroon and gold.
There are, already, differen t trees depicting
the colors, such as; the golden rain, the copper
beech, the forsythia and the barberry bush.
Mr. Creasy spoke on diseases and insects
that destroy trees, and how these may be done
away with. A poplar tree was shown on the
campus that was destroyed by a scale which
saps the strength from the tree. Mr. Hartline
has tried to do away with the pests by spraying the trees.
Miss Martha Laird spoke on the uses of
trees. A slide was shown of the pine trees
around the memorial, each dedicated to an
alumnus of the school who fell in the World
War. Trees also furnish us with firewood ,
shelter and beauty. They are our neighbors
and spiritual friends. Miss Laird , to illu strate
her talk read two poems, one by Miss Stetson, "Tree Feelings", and another by Edgar
Guest.
This fine program was closed with singing
an adapted song to the tune of "America '*.

The small room just off the lobby on first
floor and the second floor lobby have been
tastefully equipped as smoking rooms. The
fellows can show their appreciation by taking
good care of the rooms, The rules for their
use are as follows :
I. The smoking rooms are not to be used as
an excuse for loud talking, loud laughing or
noise of any sort at any time, particularly
after seven fifteen.
II. The smoking rooms are closed at 11:45
P. M.
III. Remember the fire hazard. Be sure
"butts" are out. There is no excuse for
"butts" or tobacco being on the floor.
IV. The continuance of the smoking rooms
depend on the care shown in their use.
A number of new dr essers arrived at Nort h
Hall last week and have b een placed in rooms
on second floor. The ones discarded from
those rooms were salvaged by the men who
were not fortunate enough to get a new one
and could get something better than those
which they had.
Charles John, a f ormer day student , is now
staying in the dorm, on account of a broken
ankle which he recei ved whil e refereeing a

Yes sir ! It was a worthwhile eireys here in
the dorm , while the fellows were getting
ready for the party and j ust before they left
for the gym. Monday evening.
The male constituancy of the day students
of the College are finding it hard to become
accustomed to their underground quarters.
But in spite of this handicap they are still
showing plenty of spirit. Jap Fritz is seemingly making good at selling candy to the
football players for his stock continues to
grow larger. Maybe before long he will honor
us with a show case. His opposition, in the
form of John Dyer, our "blond red head",
seems to be making a valiant effort to hold
his own in the business.
Stub Pennington finds it very hard to believe there is such a thing as honesty any
more after losing a locker key and numerous
other articles mysteriously a few days ago.
Many of the fellows are out for sports and
are giving a good account of themselves. A
large number of the cross country track team
including the Coach comes from our quarters.
Also an oth er thing which makes us famous
is our referees who go from this place all over
the cou ntry t o r efere e th e country school
basketball games. They seem to be making
a success as well as a fortune at it.

Farrow 's team hasn 't lost a game yet this
season. C. McEneany 's team lost their first
game to E. Keller 's team.
W itkowski of team 4 and Dieffenbach of
t eam 8, as goal keepers did very fine work.
Kliscker at center on team 5 was very good at
goal shooting, her distribution was good. On
team 6 McMichael has taken Jenkin's place
at center. Jenkins is now play ing left inside.
This makes a very strong combination .
Bubb of team 9 is an enthusiastic player,
but she hits too hard. Harris of team 13
was out of the game on account of injuries to
her leg. Culp took her place at center. This
made a weak spot in the team 's defense. But
she did well considering th at she has been
playing on the defense all season.
Farrow on team 16 did good at shooting
for the goal. They were clean shots cutting
through Pecora 's defense. Hoen at inside
and Farrow made a good combination.

Kra--z Korner
By Saul Gutter
Lives of great men oft remind us,
We may make our lives sublime.
Men like Woolworth so they tell us,
Started life without a dime!
Jake Nitwit was disgusted. Life had booted him about quite a bit in his simple life
time. There was his father who had been
Dean in the Institute for The Advancement
of Left Handed Palmer Method Writing,
surely with such noble ancestry one could
advance in the world—but , nay his father betrayed his trust by taking a drink because of
the strain his work put upon him , and he
had no alternative but to take the funds of
the school and flee.
Jake had tried many kinds of work but he
was not fitted for coping with the ways of the
world. College had once suggested itself to
him but since he had neither "sheepskin "
(coat) nor "racoon " he had abandoned the
idea ; besides since he had spent about 15 or

16 years in the first three grammar grades he
was not sufficiently prepared , (so they said)
to enter College. Love, too , had entered
his life in the form of a comely Eskimo
maiden who was engaged in advertisin g
Cliquot Club , but since he had epitheal tissue
of the scalp (dandruff) and also comedon
(consult Pompian Crea m advfs.) and did
not smoke Lucky Strikes ,he was decidedly out
of luck. Instead she eloped with a traveling
man who could use parlor magic , and who
had PUNCH , PEP and PERSONALITY!
Well , to make a long story longer our hero
just thought and thought and thought and
thought and thought and thought and
thou ght— By this time he was 13 years old
and nearing manhood' s estate. He began
wondering about the future. He had no
trainin g, was penniless , and was so uneducated that he could barely read the captions
in a talkin g movie. Since things were in
such a pitiful state he could do but one thing.
He began to write text-books on algebra ,
science, and economics and so great was the
demand for these works that he soon became rich , and was given an honora ry degree
with a string of letters containin g mostly the
letter X. He also established a correspondence school from which he became very
wealthy. BUT he married 3 chorus maidens
who promptly separated him from his money, and had it not been for his step-father who
later adopted him , he would have gone to
the dogs.
And so we leave our hero comtortably
nestled in the poor house with a moral: "A
penny slaved for is a bad example for the
rest of the lazy gents. "
