program in many years. Professors

the speaker 's program for the year
with speeches October 9 and 16.
Professor Reams Speaks
Professor E. A. Reams, addressing
the Y.M.C.A. at its regular meeting,
Wednesday evening, Oct ober 9, gave
a splendid interpretation of the present Italo-Ethiopian condition of affairs. He expressed his belief that
the Italians consider war the ideal
situation in view of the low economic
status of the nation. Mussolini is a
typical dict at or in that he uses war
on Ethiopa both as a means to relieve the feeling of economic insecurity and to bolster his dictatorial powers.
Professor Koch 's Speech
On October 16 Professor Koch,
Dean of Men, talked to members of
the Y.M.C.A. on the subject of personality. In his address he stated
tha t one's personality is subjected to
various physical senses in our social

The eyes, nose, hands , and mouth
usually portray our personalities.
In order to be successful one mus t in tegrate a neat appearance , a clean
body, an enthusiastic hand , and a
pleasing voice, into a vital personality.

this is for your old age, when you
want to be less strenuous and need
not consider economy so carefully,
when you can compare the impressions you now get by auto travel,
with those you get in the comfort
such train-travel affords, after the
changes that you helped bring about.
Living in this north-eastern corner
of Pennsylvania and going from here
on such a tour you will have an opportunity to cross almost the whole
length of our great state. Select one
of the many scenic routes. This is
not hard because practically all are
scenic , in Pennsylvania. Then let it
be one you have not traveled before.
Pennsylvania is apt to be bigger, finer, greater, than you now know. The
impressions you get will serve as a
fine background for what wou will

FOOTBALL IS THEME OF GYM
DECORATIONS FOR DANCE
Football will furnish the motif for
the extensive decorations in the gym
for the Homecoming dance tonight.
Professor Keller, in charge of the
work, has kept a crew busy for the
past four days. Using football as a
theme, and Indiana's and Bloomsburg 's colors, he has worked out a
very beautiful scheme.
Red and elate, representing Indiana, have been used as a backdrop in
the end of the gym opposite the entrance. Some of the windows also
nave been decorated in these colors.
The rest of the windows, and the
streamers on the sides, are of maroon and gold, Bloomsburg's own colors. The center of the ceiling decorations is a football, suspended within
a ring of short streamers. Around
this small ring is a huge oval of gold
paper. More streamers extend from
this large oval out to the sides of the
gym, and form a curtain around, mu.
floor.
Colored lights have been strung all
around the sides, something which
has not 'been done for quite a while
in decorating this gymnasium. There
are also colored lights on the Bmall
ring surrounding the football. A large
picture of a football player, drawn by
Prof. Keller, is placed opposite the
•entrance. Small silhouettes of football payers are alBO used as centers
on all the windows.

translation, "Wyoway." Isn't "Sullivan " a bit over-done ? Is there such
poverty of material for nomenclature

Compare such things as well as
physical features seen as you pass.
It gives you happy, useful thinking
that ministers to the spiritual as the

be too busy to get sleepy as did Mark
Twain. You will not worry, farther

RESULT OF WINS
While the team "brings home the
bacon" spectators are feathering
their hats with the now maroon and
gold feathers being sold on the campus by the Girl s' B Club.
For every game won by the Huskies
a spectator is entitled to purchase
and wear one of these feathers so
that, if the team wins all remaining
games on the schedule, students and
other fans may look as much like
Indians as they please.
The idea of wearing a feather for
every game won comes to Bloomsburg
from University of Pittsburgh and
other large colleges and universities.

on the Pennsylvania-Ohio state line,
you are traveling through wonderfully beautiful country all the way. Before getting to this artificial boundary, you pass over the edge of the
great Susquehanna Basin to get into
the greater Mississippi Basin, somewhere between Clearfield and Dubois,
probably by the villages of Rockton
and Mome Camp, on the brink.
Through the rest of (Pennsylvania
you are in the Mississippi Valley.
You have many routes to choose
from for crossing Ohio,Jhidiana , Illinois and Iowa. What wonderful
cities you may go through if you like
crowds and traffic. What wonderful
farm lands, resplendent in prosperity! What a garden this ancient inland sea 'bottom has come to be!
Choosing either rural or city routes,
you are hurrying to the West through
a const ant, magnificent show. How
thrilling to cross the Great Father of
Waters! Nice school memories surge
to the foreground of thought.
What will Iowa do with all this
corn ? The horizon is all one huge
mass of cornstalks. And the people
are as big, prosperous looking as
their cornstalks. There is no end to
the cornfields. There is no "depression!"
But this amazing gasoline motor,
close to doing the impossible, has
rolled our cage to something like an
end. Now there is -wheat and corn.
Now the Wheat seems as endless as
the corn did. "Here you are at Sioux
Falls, South Dakota. Roll on, say a
hundred miles or so farther—no corn.
The wheat becomes less and less frequent: thinner, sm aller , hardly worth
while. None! Now you know that
corn and wheat fields are n ot en dless
as you thought in Iowa. Here is an
end !
This is all sagebush. You are now
in the West, the high zone of the
great western plains—edging up to
the mountains you will come to if you
keep going. Nothing but sagebrush !
How vast and lonely! Nothing to
suggest an end to it except the horizon, 3etting the limit of your vision
where the blazing sky rests on it and
moves forward with you. But there
is the black-topped highway, a narrow ribbon on which you roll. Will
you ever come to the end of it in the
horizon line ahead ?
Hours and hours—miles and miles
of it, with travel at 50-55 miles an
hour in your wonderful little machine,
apparently no living thing. Stop a
moment and step out. There are
grass-hoppers a-plenty ; and this
fuzzy mess that iyou have been seeing
on the road top—the crushed carcasses oi jack -rabbits. You have seen
many. A count of those you pass as
you speed on—one hundred in a thirty
minute count. Those fleet things,
playing at night on the nice smooth
surface and startled by sudden appearance of dazzling lights rushing
towards them with great noise and
speed, to which they are unaccustomed, become befuddled and are crushed! Well , if they do not learn It soon,

COMMENDABLE ACTION
The attitude of Bloomsburg students during the County Teachers Institute held on the campus last weekend drew much favorable comment
from those in attendance. Not only
were they impressed by student act ions, but they were also equally impressed by the interest shown in the
sessions of the Institute.
It is est im at ed tha t an average of
at least fifty or sixty students attended every session in the auditorium.
Many attended even if only for a very
short ti m e bet ween classes , and the
unobtrusive manner in which they

was commendable. The student body
may well take pride in themselves
and in their actions last week-end.

Editor 's Notebook
Edward J. O'Brien,
editor of the annual
Whither
.Literature? book, "Best Short
St orie s," remarks as a
part of his introduction to the 1935
edition that the art of ¦writing may be
entirely lost in time as a result of the
tendency to jud ge literature according to its political or religious content.
Not only does Mr. O'Brien lament
this fact but he also fears that acceptance or rejection of the works of
modern writers will become dependent upon the amount of politics and
religion included.
The warning issued by Mr. O'Brien
in his introduction is one founded on
a sound combination of fact and prophecy. No critic is better qualified
to make such a statement than the
editor of "Best Short Stories, 1935."
Not only will his prophecy of the decline of the art of writing become a
fact but modern civilization will lose
its most cultu ral tool. With its loss
will come the decline of the English
language , because—as is evident even
in present writing—corruption due to
opinion of groups or factions results
in neglect of style in favor of added
concentration on subject matter. The
ordinary reader is usually not conscious of the art or style in writing;
he is, truly enough, interested more
in what the writer has to say. On
such grounds writers are justified in
stressing political and religious content as an answer to the demands of
ordinary readers. But does the common reader ever stop to consider that
careful style and technique facilitate
reading for content? And again,
aren 't there readers other than the
ordinary who should be considered ?

Will Have To Watch Indiana
Passing Attack Is Opinion
If Bloomsburg coaches are to be-
lieve all they hear, then the Huskies
will have t o be on their t oes this
af t ern oon against India n a's strong
passing attack.
A study of the Indiana statistics
this year show that the Indians,
lacking a very strong running attack,
have relied on their u se of passes in
almost every game played so far.
In view of this fac t coaches of
Bloom sbu rg hav e been bu ildin g up
the locals' defensive against passing.
The entire past week was devoted to
a study of Indiana 's passing methods.
Another thing the Huskies will
have to be on the look-out for is the
possible attempt for field goals.
Indiana won their Homecoming game
against Edinboro by the score of 3-0.

falL
Indiana , last year's gridiron kings
of the Pennsylvania Teachers' Colleges , comes to local stamping grounds
with but a single defeat to mar its
long string of victories during the
past two years. With a rugged forward wall averaging over 174 pounds,
several rangy and speedy ends, and
a galloping backfield that tips the
scales for a 162 pound average, tomorrow's visitors are certain to furnish stiff competition to a snarling
pack of Huskies.
Should their • heady quarterback,
Woodring, begin a rapid-fire aerial
attack with Red McDowell on the receivi n g end, Blootmsburg will have to
get her best defensive methods out
of the bag. These two lads are especially adept at those fla t passes over
the center of the line. With its sturdy line from end to end and its alert
backs working together with machinel i k e precision, Indiana 's scoring
threats will be frequent.
Outweighed by approximately five
pounds to the man, the Huskies make
up this lack of avoirdupois by the
traditional Homecoming spirit. A
Bloomsburg passing attack with Captain Moleski heaving the oval to either of the local fleet ends might easily put Indiana 's reputed air-tight defense to shame. However, a running
offensive is very ' likely, for the Husky backs of this |season are swift as
greyhounds , and they charge like cutting broncos.

Part 2
Between the years 1800-1865, rapid
strides and much progress was made
in the development of the game.
A student of the Rugby School
brought the game to Yale University,
at New Haven, Connect icut, where he
combined the best featu res of it with
the best features of a somewhat similar game being played in American
schools. The American game, however, was not really a game in the
true sense of the word. It was just
a campus pastime, without organiza tion , rules, or objectives.
The new game was played on a
field , parallelogram in shape, which
was 300 feet from goal line to goal
line , 360 feet from end line to end
lin e, and marked off in SO five-yard
strips with two ten-yard end lines.
The width of the goal posts was 18
feet 6 inches, and the height of the
cross bar was 10 feet. Rules were
few but severe. They consisted chiefly of what was then called a football code. This code specified there
was to be no holding, no sideline
coaching, no talking to officials or
opponents, no beating the ball. The
football itself gradually became a
stronger and bett er one and was no
longer made from the bladder of a
Pig.
It was in the Fall of 1869 at .New
Brunswick,New Jersey, that Rutgers
University met Princet on in wha t is
recorded as the first inter-collegiate
football game in history. The game
was w on by Rut gers by the score of
6-4. Both teams had been in the process of fo rm ation since 1865, and between then and 1868 for m al ru les
were envolved. Each team was composed of 25 m en whose d ut y it was t o
kick the ball and not carry it. Six
goals were necessary to win the
game.
In 1870 a regular series was inaugurated involving Rutgers and
Columbia-Princeton. Rutgers, having won the game with Princeton in
1869, was given the advantage in the
series and was not required to play as
many games. Two years later, Yale
began her long period of inter-collegiate football by defeating Columbia at New Haven, Connecticut, November 16. The following year marked the beginning of organized control for inter-collegiate football.
Yale, Princeton, Rutgers, and Columbia drafted a set of rules for use
COLLEGE RUNNERS LOOK
VAINLY JTO OPPOSITION
CANT MAKE OUT SCHEDULE
With the cross-country season already half over the Bloomsburg
State Teachers College harriers are
still looking for competitors. So
far this year all prospective opposing colleges have written coach
George Buchheit that they have no
teams this year.
Captain Ernie Lau and his fellow
runners have been faithfully preparing for any race that may turn up*
at any time. They have even, as alast resort, written to two of the
best runners ever produced
at
Bloomsburg, Lo uis Bertoldi and
Francis Sell , with the hopes of getting them to form a team for Homecoming competition. Sell, however,has been forced through busy teaching duties to give up running for the
present time, and Bertoldi can't form,
a winning teattn all alone, so that
idea was dropped.
Some of the schools which have n o
cross-country teams this Pall are
Susq u ehanna , Shippensburg, Indiana ,
and other teachers colleges. West
Chester State Teachers College team
is willing t o ru n, but so far a suitable date has not been found.

Although the Huskies maintained a

determining the winner of any one

potential scores went glimmering

"Gib" Kline isn't out for football
this year, the first sin ce he came t o
Bloomsburg three years ago. Why
isn't he out? There 's only one answer, som e on e else ca m e here who
could wear Kline 's suit.
Maclyn Smethers, Freshman from
Berwick , defeated John Yeager in
straight sets, 6-4, 7-5, 6-3, to win the
second annual intramural tennis tournamen t, which has been m oving alo n g
slowly since September.
In winning the tournament Smethers came through without losing a
single set. His first match, with
Webb, was won by defa u lt af ter the
latter failed to appear. Then, rising
to great form, he p roceded t o down
Mathews, 6-2, 6-1; Havalicka, 6-0, 6-1;
and Mer r i ll , 6-4, 7-5. His serve was
particularly helpful in his win over
Yeager for the title.
Thirty aspirants for the title began
play on September 18, with the followi
ng advancing to the second round :
J. Slaven, N. Ritchie , J. Yeager, S.
Green , E. Lau, A. Kazansky, E. Philli ps, E. Mathews, E. Havalicka , C.
Wenrich , K. Merrill , E. Kershner, C.
Klinger, G. Kline.
The third round saw Yeager defeat
Slaven, Phillips nose out Lau, Smethers win easily over Havalicka, and
IMerrill humble Klinger. In the semifinal round Yeager won over Phill ips , 3-6, 6-4, 6-4, while Smethers, the
ultimate winner, eliminated Merrill ,
6-4, 7-5.

It is Interesting to note that seven
of the fourteen tennis players entered
in the Intramural tournament who advanced to the second round did so
throu gh default by their oppononts.
In almost every case the reason for
defaulting was failure to appoar for
competition. All in all the proper
attitude was not shown by those guilty
of defaulting. It was ju st another example of lack of seriousness on tho

HIGH SCHOOL PAPERS
SEEK COLLEGE CRITICISM
During the past few weeks several
high schools in the Bloomsburg service area have sent copies of their
school newspapers to the office of the
M aroon and Gold aski n g for cri ticism
and suggestion.
The papers will be turned over to
the recently organized Press Club for
fullfillment of the schools' requests.
Criticism service t o high schools near
Bloomsburg has been accepted as one
of the principal enterprises for the
club this year. Local journalism enthusiasts feel that such work will
not only render valuable service to
hi gh school neighbors but it will also
offer training in establishing a critical attitude among members of the
club at Bloomsburg.
On October 16, Dr. Haas attended

:
All new and old members of the
Maroon and Gold staff have 'been divided into thr ee sm all groups, which
will meet at definite times during
each week for the purpose of studying modern problems in journalism
as well as the newer technique used
in the publication of school papers.
At the first meeting of the groups,
held three weeks ago, certain, definite items of style were discussed.
The subject of study at the second
meeting concerned the technique in
writing the leads for stories and the
main divisions of newspaper stories.
The third meeting, held on Tuesday
and Thursday of this week, was devoted to a study of methods in the
establishment of newspapers in high
schools. It included ideas concerning the better forms and styles as
well as some information about how
to hold pupil interest. The last
part of the meeting was taken up
with a discussion of the display used
in the Homecoming issue of the Maroon and Gold.
The schedule for the future calls
foi ' more discussion about the physical make-up of papers, the wri ting
of headlines, and a . discussion of
civic journalism.

COACH BUCHHEIT TELLS
WHAT TO WATCH AT GAME
Coach George Buchheit, in a nswer
to a reporter's qu estion , "What do
you advise the spect at or t o look at in
a foo tball ga m e," listed the following bit of information for the benefit
of students and other fans:
Probably the bigges t mist ake ma de
by ordinary spectators is watching
the ball instead of the players.
Watch the players or you'll miss the
play every time.
Watch the men closely before they
run down the field for the kickoff.
You will get a good idea of the nerous tension they are working under
at the time, and at the same time you
will learn something of he positions.
Watch the receiver and notice
whether he has interference. Whether he has or not watch his style of
running and shaking off tacklers.
You 'll be able to tell whether the man
may be expected to cause trouble later in the game. If he has interference
] oes he follow it?
In scrimmages, watch the line.
It's the linemen who open up for the
backfield.
When the home team is playing defensive watch the center. You will
find him playing in the backfield usually. After the ball is in play he
will probably be the man closest to
the opponent's ball carrier.
Also when the team is on defensive
keop an eye on the tackles and ends.
Sometimes the guards will come
out of the line on the offense. They
often protect the passer.

Results of a magazine , survey carried on for more than a full semester

College have j u st bee n r eleased by

survey was designed to give the librarians information concerning the number of times each magazine on the

While the survey indica t es cer t ai n
magazines are read far more often
than other students and readers
should bear in m ind tha t in many
cases special assignments in some

will do anything now for food , even to

The legal way, however, is this. In
one of tJhe ravines, where there is forest all around, is a large fenced pen.
In this are log seats. On the outside
of the pen is a platform. At sunset

the bears, hundreds of blacks and
grizzlys, to come and eat. And then
the fun begins. The blacks are just
nicely started on their meal and here
comes a grizzly. What happens ? The
blacks leave—and not slowly either.
If one happens to be particularly
bold, he stays. Ho stays, but he
fights ; and he usually comes out on
the wrong, side of the meat.
When an old grizzly and her two
cubs appear, the others always make
room for her. And it is interesting to
note how perfectly her cubs obey her,
doing Just as she does and as she wishes. The cubs stay with their mother
two years, during which time they are
well trained in boar manners.

program in many years. Professors

the speaker 's program for the year
with speeches October 9 and 16.
Professor Reams Speaks
Professor E. A. Reams, addressing
the Y.M.C.A. at its regular meeting,
Wednesday evening, Oct ober 9, gave
a splendid interpretation of the present Italo-Ethiopian condition of affairs. He expressed his belief that
the Italians consider war the ideal
situation in view of the low economic
status of the nation. Mussolini is a
typical dict at or in that he uses war
on Ethiopa both as a means to relieve the feeling of economic insecurity and to bolster his dictatorial powers.
Professor Koch 's Speech
On October 16 Professor Koch,
Dean of Men, talked to members of
the Y.M.C.A. on the subject of personality. In his address he stated
tha t one's personality is subjected to
various physical senses in our social

The eyes, nose, hands , and mouth
usually portray our personalities.
In order to be successful one mus t in tegrate a neat appearance , a clean
body, an enthusiastic hand , and a
pleasing voice, into a vital personality.

this is for your old age, when you
want to be less strenuous and need
not consider economy so carefully,
when you can compare the impressions you now get by auto travel,
with those you get in the comfort
such train-travel affords, after the
changes that you helped bring about.
Living in this north-eastern corner

on such a tour you will have an opportunity to cross almost the whole
length of our great state. Select one
of the many scenic routes. This is
not hard because practically all are

be one you have not traveled before.
Pennsylvania is apt to be bigger, finer, greater, than you now know. The
impressions you get will serve as a

FOOTBALL IS THEME OF GYM
DECORATIONS FOR DANCE
Football will furnish the motif for
the extensive decorations in the gym
for the Homecoming dance tonight.
Professor Keller, in charge of the
work, has kept a crew busy for the
past four days. Using football as a
theme, and Indiana's and Bloomsburg 's colors, he has worked out a
very beautiful scheme.
Red and elate, representing Indiana, have been used as a backdrop in
the end of the gym opposite the entrance. Some of the windows also
nave been decorated in these colors.
The rest of the windows, and the
streamers on the sides, are of maroon and gold, Bloomsburg's own colors. The center of the ceiling decorations is a football, suspended within
a ring of short streamers. Around
this small ring is a huge oval of gold
paper. More streamers extend from
this large oval out to the sides of the
gym, and form a curtain around, mu.
floor.
Colored lights have been strung all
around the sides, something which
has not 'been done for quite a while
in decorating this gymnasium. There
are also colored lights on the Bmall
ring surrounding the football. A large
picture of a football player, drawn by
Prof. Keller, is placed opposite the
•entrance. Small silhouettes of football payers are alBO used as centers
on all the windows.

isode might have suggested some euphonious name like "Wyovia " or its
translation, "Wyoway." Isn't "Sullivan " a bit over-done ? Is there such
poverty of material for nomenclature
that we must constantly repeat ?
Compare such things as well as
physical features seen as you pass.
It gives you happy, useful thinking
that ministers to the spiritual as the
other does to the physical. You will
be too busy to get sleepy as did Mark
Twain. You will not worry, farther
on, about "endless corn and wheat

Vast as the boundless horizons is the

RESULT OF WINS
While the team "brings home the
bacon" spectators are feathering
their hats with the now maroon and
gold feathers being sold on the campus by the Girl s' B Club.
For every game won by the Huskies
a spectator is entitled to purchase
and wear one of these feathers so
that, if the team wins all remaining
games on the schedule, students and
other fans may look as much like
Indians as they please.
The idea of wearing a feather for
every game won comes to Bloomsburg
from University of Pittsburgh and
other large colleges and universities.

on the Pennsylvania-Ohio state line,
you are traveling through wonderfully beautiful country all the way. Before getting to this artificial boundary, you pass over the edge of the
great Susquehanna Basin to get into
the greater Mississippi Basin, somewhere between Clearfield and Dubois,
probably by the villages of Rockton
and Mome Camp, on the brink.
Through the rest of (Pennsylvania
you are in the Mississippi Valley.
You have many routes to choose
from for crossing Ohio,Jhidiana , Illinois and Iowa. What wonderful
cities you may go through if you like
crowds and traffic. What wonderful
farm lands, resplendent in prosperity! What a garden this ancient inland sea 'bottom has come to be!
Choosing either rural or city routes,
you are hurrying to the West through
a const ant, magnificent show. How
thrilling to cross the Great Father of
Waters! Nice school memories surge
to the foreground of thought.
What will Iowa do with all this
corn ? The horizon is all one huge
mass of cornstalks. And the people
are as big, prosperous looking as
their cornstalks. There is no end to
the cornfields. There is no "depression!"
But this amazing gasoline motor,
close to doing the impossible, has
rolled our cage to something like an
end. Now there is -wheat and corn.
Now the Wheat seems as endless as
the corn did. "Here you are at Sioux
Falls, South Dakota. Roll on, say a
hundred miles or so farther—no corn.
The wheat becomes less and less frequent: thinner, sm aller , hardly worth
while. None! Now you know that
corn and wheat fields are n ot en dless
as you thought in Iowa. Here is an
end !
This is all sagebush. You are now
in the West, the high zone of the
great western plains—edging up to
the mountains you will come to if you
keep going. Nothing but sagebrush !
How vast and lonely! Nothing to
suggest an end to it except the horizon, 3etting the limit of your vision
where the blazing sky rests on it and
moves forward with you. But there
is the black-topped highway, a narrow ribbon on which you roll. Will
you ever come to the end of it in the
horizon line ahead ?
Hours and hours—miles and miles
of it, with travel at 50-55 miles an
hour in your wonderful little machine,
apparently no living thing. Stop a
moment and step out. There are
grass-hoppers a-plenty ; and this
fuzzy mess that iyou have been seeing
on the road top—the crushed carcasses oi jack -rabbits. You have seen
many. A count of those you pass as
you speed on—one hundred in a thirty
minute count. Those fleet things,
playing at night on the nice smooth
surface and startled by sudden appearance of dazzling lights rushing
towards them with great noise and
speed, to which they are unaccustomed, become befuddled and are crushed! Well , if they do not learn It soon,

COMMENDABLE ACTION
The attitude of Bloomsburg students during the County Teachers Institute held on the campus last weekend drew much favorable comment
from those in attendance. Not only
were they impressed by student act ions, but they were also equally impressed by the interest shown in the
sessions of the Institute.
It is est im at ed tha t an average of
at least fifty or sixty students attended every session in the auditorium.
Many attended even if only for a very
short ti m e bet ween classes , and the
unobtrusive manner in which they

was commendable. The student body
may well take pride in themselves
and in their actions last week-end.

Editor 's Notebook
Edward J. O'Brien,
editor of the annual
Whither
.Literature? book, "Best Short
St orie s," remarks as a
part of his introduction to the 1935
edition that the art of ¦writing may be
entirely lost in time as a result of the
tendency to jud ge literature according to its political or religious content.
Not only does Mr. O'Brien lament
this fact but he also fears that acceptance or rejection of the works of
modern writers will become dependent upon the amount of politics and
religion included.
The warning issued by Mr. O'Brien
in his introduction is one founded on
a sound combination of fact and prophecy. No critic is better qualified
to make such a statement than the
editor of "Best Short Stories, 1935."
Not only will his prophecy of the decline of the art of writing become a
fact but modern civilization will lose
its most cultu ral tool. With its loss
will come the decline of the English
language , because—as is evident even
in present writing—corruption due to
opinion of groups or factions results
in neglect of style in favor of added
concentration on subject matter. The
ordinary reader is usually not conscious of the art or style in writing;
he is, truly enough, interested more
in what the writer has to say. On
such grounds writers are justified in
stressing political and religious content as an answer to the demands of
ordinary readers. But does the common reader ever stop to consider that
careful style and technique facilitate
reading for content? And again,
aren 't there readers other than the
ordinary who should be considered ?

A study of the Indiana statistics
this year show that the Indians,
lacking a very strong running attack,
have relied on their u se of passes in
almost every game played so far.
In view of this fac t coaches of

The entire past week was devoted to

Another thing the Huskies will

falL
Indiana , last year's gridiron kings
of the Pennsylvania Teachers' Colleges , comes to local stamping grounds
with but a single defeat to mar its
long string of victories during the
past two years. With a rugged forward wall averaging over 174 pounds,
several rangy and speedy ends, and
a galloping backfield that tips the
scales for a 162 pound average, tomorrow's visitors are certain to furnish stiff competition to a snarling
pack of Huskies.
Should their • heady quarterback,
Woodring, begin a rapid-fire aerial
attack with Red McDowell on the receivi n g end, Blootmsburg will have to
get her best defensive methods out
of the bag. These two lads are especially adept at those fla t passes over
the center of the line. With its sturdy line from end to end and its alert
backs working together with machinel i k e precision, Indiana 's scoring
threats will be frequent.
Outweighed by approximately five
pounds to the man, the Huskies make
up this lack of avoirdupois by the
traditional Homecoming spirit. A
Bloomsburg passing attack with Captain Moleski heaving the oval to either of the local fleet ends might easily put Indiana 's reputed air-tight defense to shame. However, a running
offensive is very ' likely, for the Husky backs of this |season are swift as
greyhounds , and they charge like cutting broncos.

Part 2
Between the years 1800-1865, rapid
strides and much progress was made
in the development of the game.
A student of the Rugby School
brought the game to Yale University,
at New Haven, Connect icut, where he
combined the best featu res of it with
the best features of a somewhat similar game being played in American
schools. The American game, however, was not really a game in the
true sense of the word. It was just
a campus pastime, without organiza tion , rules, or objectives.
The new game was played on a
field , parallelogram in shape, which
was 300 feet from goal line to goal
line , 360 feet from end line to end
lin e, and marked off in SO five-yard
strips with two ten-yard end lines.
The width of the goal posts was 18
feet 6 inches, and the height of the
cross bar was 10 feet. Rules were
few but severe. They consisted chiefly of what was then called a football code. This code specified there
was to be no holding, no sideline
coaching, no talking to officials or
opponents, no beating the ball. The
football itself gradually became a
stronger and bett er one and was no
longer made from the bladder of a
Pig.
It was in the Fall of 1869 at .New
Brunswick,New Jersey, that Rutgers
University met Princet on in wha t is
recorded as the first inter-collegiate
football game in history. The game
was w on by Rut gers by the score of
6-4. Both teams had been in the process of fo rm ation since 1865, and between then and 1868 for m al ru les
were envolved. Each team was composed of 25 m en whose d ut y it was t o
kick the ball and not carry it. Six
goals were necessary to win the
game.
In 1870 a regular series was inaugurated involving Rutgers and
Columbia-Princeton. Rutgers, having won the game with Princeton in
1869, was given the advantage in the
series and was not required to play as
many games. Two years later, Yale
began her long period of inter-collegiate football by defeating Columbia at New Haven, Connecticut, November 16. The following year marked the beginning of organized control for inter-collegiate football.
Yale, Princeton, Rutgers, and Columbia drafted a set of rules for use
COLLEGE RUNNERS LOOK
VAINLY JTO OPPOSITION
CANT MAKE OUT SCHEDULE
With the cross-country season already half over the Bloomsburg
State Teachers College harriers are
still looking for competitors. So
far this year all prospective opposing colleges have written coach
George Buchheit that they have no
teams this year.
Captain Ernie Lau and his fellow
runners have been faithfully preparing for any race that may turn up*
at any time. They have even, as alast resort, written to two of the
best runners ever produced
at
Bloomsburg, Lo uis Bertoldi and
Francis Sell , with the hopes of getting them to form a team for Homecoming competition. Sell, however,has been forced through busy teaching duties to give up running for the
present time, and Bertoldi can't form,
a winning teattn all alone, so that
idea was dropped.
Some of the schools which have n o
cross-country teams this Pall are
Susq u ehanna , Shippensburg, Indiana ,
and other teachers colleges. West
Chester State Teachers College team
is willing t o ru n, but so far a suitable date has not been found.

determining the winner of any one

"Gib" Kline isn't out for football
this year, the first sin ce he came t o
Bloomsburg three years ago. Why
isn't he out? There 's only one answer, som e on e else ca m e here who
could wear Kline 's suit.
Maclyn Smethers, Freshman from
Berwick , defeated John Yeager in
straight sets, 6-4, 7-5, 6-3, to win the
second annual intramural tennis tournamen t, which has been m oving alo n g
slowly since September.
In winning the tournament Smethers came through without losing a
single set. His first match, with
Webb, was won by defa u lt af ter the
latter failed to appear. Then, rising
to great form, he p roceded t o down
Mathews, 6-2, 6-1; Havalicka, 6-0, 6-1;
and Mer r i ll , 6-4, 7-5. His serve was
particularly helpful in his win over
Yeager for the title.
Thirty aspirants for the title began
play on September 18, with the followi
ng advancing to the second round :
J. Slaven, N. Ritchie , J. Yeager, S.
Green , E. Lau, A. Kazansky, E. Philli ps, E. Mathews, E. Havalicka , C.
Wenrich , K. Merrill , E. Kershner, C.
Klinger, G. Kline.
The third round saw Yeager defeat
Slaven, Phillips nose out Lau, Smethers win easily over Havalicka, and
IMerrill humble Klinger. In the semifinal round Yeager won over Phill ips , 3-6, 6-4, 6-4, while Smethers, the
ultimate winner, eliminated Merrill ,
6-4, 7-5.

It is Interesting to note that seven
of the fourteen tennis players entered
in the Intramural tournament who advanced to the second round did so
throu gh default by their oppononts.
In almost every case the reason for
defaulting was failure to appoar for
competition. All in all the proper
attitude was not shown by those guilty
of defaulting. It was ju st another example of lack of seriousness on tho

HIGH SCHOOL PAPERS
SEEK COLLEGE CRITICISM
During the past few weeks several
high schools in the Bloomsburg service area have sent copies of their
school newspapers to the office of the
M aroon and Gold aski n g for cri ticism
and suggestion.
The papers will be turned over to
the recently organized Press Club for
fullfillment of the schools' requests.
Criticism service t o high schools near
Bloomsburg has been accepted as one
of the principal enterprises for the
club this year. Local journalism enthusiasts feel that such work will
not only render valuable service to
hi gh school neighbors but it will also
offer training in establishing a critical attitude among members of the
club at Bloomsburg.
On October 16, Dr. Haas attended

which was held in Philadelphia, matters pertaining to the fight to prevent

:
All new and old members of the
Maroon and Gold staff have 'been divided into thr ee sm all groups, which
will meet at definite times during
each week for the purpose of studying modern problems in journalism
as well as the newer technique used
in the publication of school papers.
At the first meeting of the groups,
held three weeks ago, certain, definite items of style were discussed.
The subject of study at the second
meeting concerned the technique in
writing the leads for stories and the
main divisions of newspaper stories.
The third meeting, held on Tuesday
and Thursday of this week, was devoted to a study of methods in the
establishment of newspapers in high
schools. It included ideas concerning the better forms and styles as
well as some information about how
to hold pupil interest. The last
part of the meeting was taken up
with a discussion of the display used
in the Homecoming issue of the Maroon and Gold.
The schedule for the future calls
foi ' more discussion about the physical make-up of papers, the wri ting
of headlines, and a . discussion of
civic journalism.

COACH BUCHHEIT TELLS
WHAT TO WATCH AT GAME
Coach George Buchheit, in a nswer
to a reporter's qu estion , "What do
you advise the spect at or t o look at in
a foo tball ga m e," listed the following bit of information for the benefit
of students and other fans:
Probably the bigges t mist ake ma de
by ordinary spectators is watching
the ball instead of the players.
Watch the players or you'll miss the
play every time.
Watch the men closely before they
run down the field for the kickoff.
You will get a good idea of the nerous tension they are working under
at the time, and at the same time you
will learn something of he positions.
Watch the receiver and notice
whether he has interference. Whether he has or not watch his style of
running and shaking off tacklers.
You 'll be able to tell whether the man
may be expected to cause trouble later in the game. If he has interference
] oes he follow it?
In scrimmages, watch the line.
It's the linemen who open up for the
backfield.
When the home team is playing defensive watch the center. You will
find him playing in the backfield usually. After the ball is in play he
will probably be the man closest to
the opponent's ball carrier.
Also when the team is on defensive
keop an eye on the tackles and ends.
Sometimes the guards will come
out of the line on the offense. They
often protect the passer.

While the survey indica t es cer t ai n
