With the appointment of the Handbook iEditor by the Student Council
several weeks ago, definite steps have
already been taken towards the publication of that valuable little volume
which makes its appearance on the
campus at the beginning of every
Fall term.
A committee, representative of Day
Women , Dormitory Women, Dormit ory Men, and Day Men , has been
¦appoin ted to assist in the work.
Those chosen are: Marjorie Beaver,'
Day Women; Verna Jones, Dormitory Women; and Jacob Koteh, Dormitory Men. The Day Men are represented by Howard Bevilacqua ,
who was the reappointed Editor.
Though definite plans have not yet
been set up for the book it is believed that few changes will be made
in the general appearance. It is the
sincere hope of the committee that all
organizations on the campus hold
their elections -for officers of next
t erm some time before the close of
the second semester of this year in
order that these may be included in
the Handbook.
The com mi tt ee will also apprecia t e
any criticism of a constructive nature
tha t may be offe r ed by stu den t s or
faculty members. If the sponsors of
College organization s know of any
mistakes or slip-ups in the last volume, they are asked to kindly make
such known to anyone of the committee.

A NEW SUGGESTION
KNOW YOUR GO VERNME NT
The N. S. F. A. demand for relief for college students is one way for
citizens to make their government effective and practicable. Moreover it is
possible for the individual students to exert a more direct influence on
American government if he only will. College men and women of today
must think for themselves. Begin immediately to read the current events ol
the day, not only the Hauptmann trial but what the President and Congress
are doing at Washington. The "alphabet" .branch es n ow in ex ist en ce,are t oo
complex and changeable, it is tru e, to follow carefully; however, the most important issues of the administrative program and their development will
stare you in the face if you 'turn to the editorial section of a Phila. or N. Y.
newspaper.
The average college student has either reached or is near to the voting
age; it will soon be up to our generation to take full command of the Ship of
State. It is up to us to decide whether the present course is disastrous , satisfactory, or whether a compromise will be successfull. The success of this
decision depends on our knowledge of the defects and worthwhile qualities
in the policies by which we are now governed. The polls is the place to use
this knowledge; besides, the records of all candidates are open today to any
voter who is interested enough in his own and his country 's welfa re, to examine them. Acquaint yourself with the political issues and men of today
and then make your own decisions.
Tradition has shown us that corrupt legislation throws a nation into
chaos. It is only by means of the honest, intelligent voter and his acknowledged leaders that a country such as ours becomes truly prosperous. Therefore, make a habit of reading daily the editorial section of your favorite
newspaper.
Our recently appointed Poet Laureate evidently has taken to
prose. Nothing with rhyme or rhythm has come from his pen since
his coronation. Perhaps the crown "went to his head!"
FOOD FOR THOUGHT

FIRST HALF SPURT
DEFEATS KUTZTOWN
A million-dollar start and a twobit finish ! That is the story of the
Kutztown S. T. C.—B. S. T. C. game.
Bloomsburg opened both the first
and second halves with smoothly running, precisely clicking offensive
plays and tight, grudging, figh t in g
defensive play.
However, in the second and fourth
quarters the offense bogged down and
the defensive play became patchy.
Both teams showed early season
form in missing short "peeps " near
the baskets and this alone kept the
score from being much higher for
both teams.
Bloomsburg's long shots did a very
important part in keeping Kutztown at bay and built up a lead which
was enough to thwart an almost irresistabl e last quarter offensive , by
the visitors, which very nearly won
the game,
Here is the completed record of the
games won and lost last year together with a comparison of the total number of points scored by our

Although the basebnll schedule for
this spring is not yet completed,
some requests for exchanges of
games have already been received by
Coach Nelson, It is very probable
that the team will engage in a pair
of games with Lock Haven and perhaps with West Chester. As far back
as available record s go, we have not
played West Chester during the last

Coach Nelson also states that it la

TRAINING SCHOOL PUPILS
INJRJEXHIBITION
Mr. Keller, supervisor of art , began the program with an introduction
on "Art in School is Life Out of
School." Following the introduction ,
the program , under the supervision
of Mr. Keller, was con t in u ed by the
boys and girls representing the
fourth , fifth , and sixth grade of the
training school. The children showed
a great interest in art.
Mr. Keller explained the practical
value of art education contrasted to
the type where in drawing is the fundamental aim. It is far more essential for boys and girls to recognize
and use art in the surrounding environment , rather than to merely develop skill in drawing and painting.
The speakers on the program were
as follows: Sarah Doty, representing
the fourth grade, demonstrated , "Pottery Design and Making. " Fifth
grade was represented by Jack Moy-

With the appointment of the Handbook iEditor by the Student Council
several weeks ago, definite steps have
already been taken towards the publication of that valuable little volume
which makes its appearance on the
campus at the beginning of every
Fall term.
A committee, representative of Day
Women , Dormitory Women, Dormit ory Men, and Day Men , has been
¦appoin ted to assist in the work.
Those chosen are: Marjorie Beaver,'
Day Women; Verna Jones, Dormitory Women; and Jacob Koteh, Dormitory Men. The Day Men are represented by Howard Bevilacqua ,
who was the reappointed Editor.
Though definite plans have not yet
been set up for the book it is believed that few changes will be made
in the general appearance. It is the
sincere hope of the committee that all
organizations on the campus hold
their elections -for officers of next
t erm some time before the close of
the second semester of this year in
order that these may be included in
the Handbook.
The com mi tt ee will also apprecia t e
any criticism of a constructive nature
tha t may be offe r ed by stu den t s or
faculty members. If the sponsors of
College organization s know of any
mistakes or slip-ups in the last volume, they are asked to kindly make
such known to anyone of the committee.

A NEW SUGGESTION
KNOW YOUR GO VERNME NT
The N. S. F. A. demand for relief for college students is one way for
citizens to make their government effective and practicable. Moreover it is
possible for the individual students to exert a more direct influence on
American government if he only will. College men and women of today
must think for themselves. Begin immediately to read the current events ol
the day, not only the Hauptmann trial but what the President and Congress
are doing at Washington. The "alphabet" .branch es n ow in ex ist en ce,are t oo
complex and changeable, it is tru e, to follow carefully; however, the most important issues of the administrative program and their development will
stare you in the face if you 'turn to the editorial section of a Phila. or N. Y.
newspaper.
The average college student has either reached or is near to the voting
age; it will soon be up to our generation to take full command of the Ship of
State. It is up to us to decide whether the present course is disastrous , satisfactory, or whether a compromise will be successfull. The success of this
decision depends on our knowledge of the defects and worthwhile qualities
in the policies by which we are now governed. The polls is the place to use
this knowledge; besides, the records of all candidates are open today to any
voter who is interested enough in his own and his country 's welfa re, to examine them. Acquaint yourself with the political issues and men of today
and then make your own decisions.
Tradition has shown us that corrupt legislation throws a nation into
chaos. It is only by means of the honest, intelligent voter and his acknowledged leaders that a country such as ours becomes truly prosperous. Therefore, make a habit of reading daily the editorial section of your favorite
newspaper.
Our recently appointed Poet Laureate evidently has taken to
prose. Nothing with rhyme or rhythm has come from his pen since
his coronation. Perhaps the crown "went to his head!"
FOOD FOR THOUGHT

FIRST HALF SPURT
DEFEATS KUTZTOWN
A million-dollar start and a twobit finish ! That is the story of the
Kutztown S. T. C.—B. S. T. C. game.
Bloomsburg opened both the first
and second halves with smoothly running, precisely clicking offensive
plays and tight, grudging, figh t in g
defensive play.
However, in the second and fourth
quarters the offense bogged down and
the defensive play became patchy.
Both teams showed early season
form in missing short "peeps " near
the baskets and this alone kept the
score from being much higher for
both teams.
Bloomsburg's long shots did a very
important part in keeping Kutztown at bay and built up a lead which
was enough to thwart an almost irresistabl e last quarter offensive , by
the visitors, which very nearly won
the game,

day. The season is being well carried out by Kathryn Abbot, basketball manager.
Any girl may receive points toward

REQUEST GAMES FOR

Although the basebnll schedule for
this spring is not yet completed,
some requests for exchanges of
games have already been received by
Coach Nelson, It is very probable
that the team will engage in a pair
of games with Lock Haven and perhaps with West Chester. As far back
as available record s go, we have not
played West Chester during the last
ten years.
Coach Nelson also states that it la
quite likely that Indiana will replace

TRAINING SCHOOL PUPILS
INJRJEXHIBITION
Mr. Keller, supervisor of art , began the program with an introduction
on "Art in School is Life Out of
School." Following the introduction ,
the program , under the supervision
of Mr. Keller, was con t in u ed by the
boys and girls representing the
fourth , fifth , and sixth grade of the
training school. The children showed
a great interest in art.
Mr. Keller explained the practical
value of art education contrasted to
the type where in drawing is the fundamental aim. It is far more essential for boys and girls to recognize
and use art in the surrounding environment , rather than to merely develop skill in drawing and painting.
The speakers on the program were
as follows: Sarah Doty, representing
the fourth grade, demonstrated , "Pottery Design and Making. " Fifth
grade was represented by Jack Moy-
