At the Faculty banquet given in
honor of Dr. and Mrs. Francis B.
Haas on A the film "Picturesque Pennsylvania"
•was given its premier. It was acclaimed a work of merit
The entire program took the nature
of a Hollywood Premiere. As guests
arrived they were photographed by
Doctor E. H. Nelson and Professor
Shortess. Later in the evening caricatures of the guests, drawn by Mr.
George J. Keller, were thrown on the
screen to the accompaniment of remarks by Doctor Nelson. These, from
all reports, together with some spe^
cial names of flowers bestowed on
privileged teachers, made several
guests most uncomfortable.
The members of the committee in
charge of the successful affair were
Miss Edna Hazen. Miss Harriet H.
Moore , M iss Irm a Ward, Mrs. Lucille
Baker , S. I. Shortess, George J. Keller and Doctor E. H. Nelson.

foreward and section devoted t o the
Poet Laureate, Robert Savage; a
section for serious poetry, a section
for college verse, including "campu s

D. D. WRIGHT ELECTE D PRES.

That many of the eight thousand
alumni of our school are interested
in their Alma Mater becomes more
eviden t since the mee ting last Saturday of the Columbia County branch
of Bloomsburg State Teachers College Alumni Association. Columbia
is the third county to form an associa tion of it s alumni , Northumberland and Lackawanna coun ties having
done so previously. Montour county
•vill probably be the fourth county
of the state to take this progressive
step, for the alumni of this county
plan to organize early next month.
The two hundred members present
at the meeting decided that the purpose of their group should be the
same as that of the general alumni
body. During the meeting the members voted to support three projects,
:he studen t loan fund , the al u mni
memorial room , and the alumni quarterly.
,..Dr..N_elsonJ_ who very capably presided at the meeting, "stressed "the
n eed for cooperation, not only within the county groups, but also by all
of the alumni members of the school.
Short addresses were made by R.
Bruce Albert, president, and Dr.
Haas. County Superintendent W. E.
Evans was in charge of the organization of the night's successful dinner.
During dinner the College orchestra under the direction of Mr. Fenst emak er pr esent ed a fin e program of
music, and Miss Moore led the group
in singing. After the dinner it was
decided to make the meeting an annu al affair , the president appoint ed
committees to arrange for next years

COLLEGE FAILS TO MEET
STANDARD IN TEST ON
CURRENT WORLD AFFAIRS
Almost 300 students were recently

tested on their knowledge of current
affairs by a test that had previously
appeared in Time magazine.
The highest possible score is 105;
55 is the college mean, and 45 the
high school mean. Our mean is 48.26
for the 291 students taking the test.
This is just above the high school level , and pret t y far from college level.
R oughl y, one-half the scores were below the high school mean; threefourth of the scores were below the
regular standarized college man.
The means for a few groups are
practically identical. The mean for
commercials is, 48.75; for teachers in
service , 54.66; and" for Secondaries,
50.74.
The scores were widely distributed
¦between the limits of 104 and 16 with
the greatest part below fifty.
Results such as these indicate a
need for initiating, and satisfying a
desire for a knowledge of present day
affairs.

State Teachers College

POPULARITY OR TRUSTWORTH INESS ?
As the 1934-35 College year draws to a close, we are again faced with
the annual problem of nominations and elections. On the surface, this ques tion does not appear to be of any degree of importance, but a study of the
manner in which offices and responsible positions have been filled in the past
gives us an entirely new aspect of the situation.
Wha t, in your estimation , are the qualifications that a potential office-holder should possess ? Do you include in your list the requisites, those
of honesty, respectable character and personality, coopera tiveness, ability,
progressiveness , and tr u stwor thiness?
On t oo many occasions , popularity has been the outstanding factor
in determining the outcomes of elections. The results of such, unfortunate
occurrences have been vevy evident , bu t we, as members of the student body
are prone to permit ourselves to follow the same course year after year.
Should we no t be concerned with the ultimate growth of ourselves , our
organizations, and our College Community ? Consider this as you many. It
might foe well, howeve r, for each and every individual to be conscious of that
which is before him. Good judgment, t horough considera t ion , and sound
thinking can, if rightly applied, be of untold value to all members of the
iBloomsburg State Teachers College.

SOCIAL CONSCI OUSNESS
Wi t h the adven t of wa rm er wea t he r, house cleaning time is drawing
near when all dirt is swept away and all useless and undesirable articles are
removed from sight. Although our librarians have not donned aprons and
dustcaps, they have been diligently working during the past few weeks to
rid the library of all nuisances in the form of talkative and annoying students.
Some pedple have neither respect for the rights of others or a feeling of shame for themselves, for numerous students (?) have been openly
dismissed from the library only to come 'back the next day to repeat the
same offense—'incessant gossiping. Lately some of the miscreants have been
acting quite flippant when reprimanded by a libra rian , some of them even
going so far as to fling smart remarks in the direction of the librarian 's desk.
What is to be clone with such persons ? That this problem is one that
can be handled by the student body through the council is apparent , but it is
too late to proceed far in this direction during the rest of the year. The
method of punishing such individuals for the balance of the term should be
up to the librarians , and in meting out their justice they should not be in the
»
least lenient with offenders,

Stra nge as it may seem the greater portion of these noises is made
by mixed and unmixed groups of girl s and fellows rather than by couples
Bitting together. Often some innocent person who is trying to study is surrounded by three or four "chatterboxes " and is unjustly nccused and punished. Perhaps one way of avoiding this is for the librarians to make certain who tho talkers are, and then to banish them fro m the library for a definite period of time without any access to necessary reference books. Drastice measures have to bo taken to overcome stubborn obstacles to progress.
Of course we wish to talk with certain classmates about our lessons,
ami wo should be allowed to do so provided we talk in low tones. Learn to
whisper. Perhaps some of us are unconscious of the fact we talk so loudly.
If this is the case we will have to adjust ourselves accordingl y It's no longer cold out , and the spring air will hurt no one , so don 't be backward in kicking the dlstrurbers out, librarians.

WANTED — ONE BAND
Last year tho Maroon and Gold printed a short editorial expressing
the favorable reaction of the student body towards a program of band music presented by the Williams Band in chapel. This year many students have
come into the office with a request that an editorial be written asking why

another band cannot be secured for the entertainment of the students. Many To The Old Pine Tree—South
Corner Campus
have' even gone so far as to say , that they would rather hear a ' poor ban d
than none at all. Still others attempted to prove their intense interest in band

A LITTLE CREDIT WHERE DUE
Often we hear much talk about some persons who are always going
to do something important but who never "produce the goods" when the t ime
comes. On the other hand there are many persons about whom we hear very
li ttle , but who are honestly doing their part to make this a better workl in
which to live. Men and women of this type often receive a very small proportion of the merited thanks they deserve, but they get a satisfaction in
doing their work well.
Our hats are off to Mr. Englehart and his crew of workers who do
their best to keep the campus and the buildings in "shi p shape. " Whenever
a desk needs to be moved from one location to another, or a chair has to be
fixed , or a window shade mended , a member of this crew soon sees that the
j ob is done. Already the campus is beginning t o bri ghten up because some
of Mr. Englehart's helpers have recently planted grass seed and packed down
the sod with heavy rollers.
Still another group helps to make possible a comfortable and enjoyable school life. When the members of the faculty enter their offices and when
we students go into the class rooms we notice that the floors are swept nice
and clean, that the wastepaper basket has been emptied, and that the light
bulb that had burned out the day before has been replaced. Who does all this
work ? 'None other than the janitors and their helpers. To this force of workers we students are grateful for their efficient service.
Many times, by merely thinking twice before we act we can save these
good people a little work. Let us be careful about where we throw those
small bits of paper, or how we treat the furniture given to us for beneficial
usage. Especially when the ground is so soft we should avoid walking on
the ca m pu s, and even during the rest of the year the habit of walking on
the walks provided for the purpose would be a good one to form.

EDITORIAL JOTS
The plan whereby insruction in golf is being given by Coach Buchheit may be heralded as a good one, and one which may someday help our
graduates find physical exercise after class hours. It has often been said
that teachers get too much mental exercise and not enough physical "limbering" for their own good. Even though students are financially unable
to play golf now, they wil l n ever lose the f un dament als of the spor t, on ce
given instruction in them. Then too, those who play golf will tell you that
after holding the clubs for a few minutes, or taking a few swings at the
bal l, there is a certain "b ug " which gets one.
A glance at an educator 's notebook reveals the fact that April 13 of
this year marked the tercentary of the birth of secondary education in tho
United States. While the celebration of this occasion has been going on
since Education Week in 1934, editorial mention of the exact date shpuld be
of some value to students in schools of education.

Bucknell has rearranged its library system to meet the moods of students, according to a news release from the Lewisburg institution last week.
In other words, there will be a section of books for those who are not feeling well, a section for those who have spring fever, and so on down into the
narrowest expression of feeling. Maybe we're wrong but it seems to us that

With reference to the poetry notebook project, we might express our
hope that the material included in the book be sifted out by passing through
the hands of several competent critics first. In other words we do not approvo of encouv&ging poor poetry, BVtch as the Maroon and Gold has known
for some time. Quality, and not quantity, should be stressed by the organization now at work on the project. Then , and then only, will the movement
be plausible.
* ? ? * *

Tho members of tho Maroon and Gold staff believe the recent jour nalism contest sponsorod by the Stroud Courier to be a very -worthwhile cause
that will aid greatly in improving the respective papers of tho different colleges. Most newspaper associations and conventions fall to givo a thorough
and intimate rating or analysis of our Teacher College papers. Therefore,
we, too, feel that a smaller organization with similar problems can do much
to aid each paper as well as to create a competitive spirit. Just as we meet in
athletics, bo can we engage in friendly competition in the field of journalism.

BROKEN

In a remarkable exhibition of athletic ability, La m ar Blass, star athlete
and all around performer from Aristes, lead the Sophomores in an overwhelming victory in the Annual InterClass Track Meet just concluded. Out
of the 60 1-2 points comp iled by the
Sophomore Class, Blass personally accounted for 36 or almost as many
points as either the Seniors or Freshmen secured in tying for second place
with 37 points. The Juniors trailed
in the meet with 28 1-2 .points. Blass
took first place in the 100 yard dash,
shot put , 220 yard dash, running high
jump, the 100 yard high hurdles, and
the running broad jump. He placed
second in the discuss, and the 220 yard
low hurdles. With these records to
his credit and because of his remarkable exhibition of athletic prowess,
Blass should prove a decided asset to
the track team 'in its first meet with
Lock Haven here on Tuesday.
The Freshmen af t er trailing v the
first day behind the other classes with
onl y 5 points to their credit and again
on the second day with only 12 poin ts
made a remarkable showing on the
third day to tie with the Seniors at
37 points. The Juniors, who had won
the meet when they were Sophomores,
lacked men t o represen t the m in the
various runs and so t railed in the
meet with 28 1-2 points. Vershinski
contributed 19 1-2 points to this score
of the Juniors.
Records Broken

Several records established in the
Interclass meet last year were bettered this year. In the first , day Blass
put the shot 38 feet, 10 inches or j u st
a foot better than he did last year
when he placed first. Line did the 220
yard low hurdles in 30 1-5 seconds to
establish a record. Blass traveled 1-4
of a second slower than M enapace last
year in the lOOyard dash and Bertoldi did the two mile run in 11:14 minutes cutting off 45 2-5 seconds from
K arn 's record of last year. Blass did
3 i nches bett er in the r u n n ing broad
jump this year than Vershinski did
last year. Captain Sell set a new half
mile mark of 2:12 flat.

During the past" few weeks, M iss
M oCammon , together with the aid of
Mr. Buchheit, has succeeded in gaining the interest and attention of a
number of the members of the student body in the direction of a new
form of recreation—this added activity being golf.
Some instruction has already been
given relative to the rules and regulations of the game, and the skill involved therein , and all those wishing
to become a member of this group are
urged to see either Miss 'MoCammon
or Mr. Buchheit immediately.
Under the presen t set-up, a club

College Nine Confident of
Win Over Shippensburg
Although the members of the baseball squad have had little ehafie6 to
practice because of the seasonal rains
they go to Shippensburg this afternoon confident of an initial victory.
Coach (Nelson will not announce his
starting line-up until just before the
game. Material for this year's team
is very promising and the coach is
sure to encounter difficulties when he
has to choose a starting nine.
The most promising of the players
will make the trip, and each of them
will probably have an opportunity to .. .
exhibit his wares. Last year the
Husky nine lost its first and only
game of the season to the down state
school , and this year they are determined to avenge the former setback.

After treking over the snow
many miles during the past winter
and going into a dozen counties to
photograph wild life of the state in
its native haunts, a group of local
men, headed by Mr. Keller, of our faculty, has completed an unusual film
"Picturesque Pennsylvania " which had
its premiere on Tuesday evening when
the College faculty tendered a dinner
at the Elks Club to Dr. and Mrs.
Francis B. Haas.
Mr. Keller directed the film , Prof.
S. Shortess photographed its many
unusual scenes and Prof. D. S. Hartline , whose knowledge of the wild life
and scenic beauty of Pennsylvania is
equalled by few of Pennsylvania's restions to photograph the animals.
All of the periods of January and
February that snow covered the
ground were used by the party in making the film which since has been
cut and titled.
Others assisting in the production
were Rostand Kelly, Jack Shortess,
R eno Bush, and Harry Chamberlain.
The film is built around a trip by
dog sled through sections of Pennsylvania and the scenery and wild life
viewed on the trip. Mr. Keller 's dog
team is used extensively and becau se
of it the party was able to get to
points that otherwise would have been
inaccessible in winter.
The team of five included two North
Greenland Huskies, one of which was
our mascot, Roongo, the lead dog; an
animal secured from Grenfel Mission,
Labrador ; a Siberian Husky and another animal part timber wolf.
In the f ilm, which requires about
forty minutes to run, there are shown
oposs u m, r accoons, beaver, a black
bear , gray fox, porcupine, deer , elk,
and a skunk.
The film shows a colony of beavers
and this is one which alone would

Russel , and Charlotte Hochberg, general chairman of the affair. Group
singing was in charge of Earl Kershner.
'
Fa ther Gas t, rector of the local
Episcopal church, gave an impressive
and forceful talk on the subject, "Opportunity ". He declared that "Opportunity " knocks many times and in order to take advantage of his opport unities , one should revert to four
fundamental things . . dreams and

POETRY GROUP HOLDS
SPIRITED MEETING
Continued fro m f irst pag e

Gold this year. This collection of poetry gathered by them will be the first
to receive the consideration of the
judges.
It is hoped by members of the Poetry committee and Dean Kehr that
of the students some will write a few
college poems. Hereto-fore only
members of the faculty have indulged
in this branch.
A reporter interviewed the Poet
Laureate concerning the Poebiy Book,
When asked whether he thought the
book would be a success, Mr. Savidge
said, "It certainly will. There is only
one thing lacking so far, and that is
a poem on Measles, I would gladly
write one, but I only write of those
things that I have felt."

The scene was taken near Red Rock.
Ice on the beaver dam allowed the
par t y to ge t close and t o p hotograph
the entire colony at close range. A
hole was cut in the Ice in front of the
beaver lodge and food placed near the
hole. Several fine shots were taken
when the beavers came on the ice to
get the food.
The Huskies did some good work
but once ran away and caused some
difficulties. On another occasion two
of the team got in a bitter fight. Prof.
Shortess was right on hand and got
some action pictures of the altercation and the efforts of the party to
separate the dogs.
