.Bloomsburg State Teachers College
will observe N ational Education
Week, with a special chapel program
next Monday morning. "Peace" will
be the theme of the program, and the
plans call for the joint celebration of
Education Week and Armistice Day.
"The School and Democracy" is the
theme for National observance of Education Week this*year. Its selection,
Dr. L. K. Ade points out, emphasizes
"the determination of the American
people to retain and improve the
principles of self-rule in the face of
social disorder which has checked indefinitely the progress of popular
government in some of the older
countries of the world/' The topis
also suggests the need for improvement in the schools which will meet
new-day demands , he adds.
Most of Pennsylvania will have
special programs and welcome visit ors t o insp lect their work during
Education Week.
The following day-by-day topics
will be used by the schools in the
observance:
(Monday, November 11 (Armistice
Day), The School and the Citizen.

JUST ANOTHED SOUVENIR
A reporter for the Maroon and
Gold asked sixty-two different students whether he might borrow their
handbooks. iFifty-seven of them had
none an their possession at the time.
Four of the'five who did have copies
with them were m embers of the
f reshman class, probably carry-overs
from the days, earlier in their college careers, when upperclassmen
forced them to carry the College
[Handbook at all times.
The book is sm all; i t t akes u p n o
more room than other ordinary little
booklet s, su ch as season foo tball
schdeules for colleges; and, best of
all, it does contain some information
desired by students many times during the year. Perhaps students of
Bloomsburg have not yet learned the
nature of the contents of the Handbook. Perhaps they do not realize
that the book carries the answers to
almost all the ordinary questions
asked by themselves about the College.
Or perhaps the students have no
place to carry the book. That may be
an important reason why so few have
the College Handbook on their person ; but it isn 't a good reason for the
sixty-two questioned by the Maroon
and Gold, becauso all of thorn were
men students who woro coats. And
coats are usually made with pockets
in them.
It Is indeed a rather ridiculous situation. Everyone has a handbook of
his own ; yet everyono is constantly
wantimg to borrow someone else's.

topsy-turvey. In the
firs t place I read a n ews report from
a locality in central Pennsylvania
stating that, on the first day of
hunting season, two hunters were
shot in a group of five .while tihe entire group, before the double accide n t ,
had shot only four rabbits. The
actions of tlhe fifth rabbit seen during the day was said to have been
indirectly responsible for the double
accident. So we have, on tha t firs t
day, the following report : nu mb er
involved, five hunters and five rabbits; number killed, four rabbi t s;
number inj u red , two hunters. Sounds
like the report of a war correspondent , dosen 't it! But it's just our
topsy-turvey world. Rabbits, it
seems, are rebelling and turning the
tables.
Another example of the world "upside down " may be found in a conversation with a magazine agent.
"Esquire— The Magazine For Men "
sold to twice as many women on this
particular news stand as it did to
men. Strangely enough, the sam e
agent reports that he sells as many
copies of "Good Housekeeping" and
"The Woman's World" t© men ag he
does to their wives. A woman friend
of the writer tells of having gone
into a physician's waiting room,
there to sit patiently and await her
turn for consultation. Walking over
to the small library table in search
of a magazine she found nothing of
interest t o a woman , so she made a
glancing survey of the magazines being read by other pat
ients at the
time. She discovered two copies of
the woman's parallel to "Esquire,"
the magazine called "Madamoselle."
Both were being read by interestedlooking men. As interesting contrast, one lone woman was reading
"The Elk's Magazine." In closing,
the best chefs and cooks in the world
are men.

Red Devils succeeded in turning back
a team which had previously boasted
of an uncrossed goal line for the season. Their win last Saturday kept
them in the ranks of the undefeated
and increased their bid for st ate
championship.
In the initial period the Shippensburg valiants insured the large

game, when a 38-yard pass from
Cavanaugh to Bay opened ,a long
march down the field to the first
score of the game. Sweeney and
Mastrocola took turns carrying the
ball with the la tter plunging for the
touchdown.

During the second and third quarters the Huskies put up) a stubborn
defense , but weakened in the final

thrilling part of tttie game came in

fresh man back, intercepted Laubach's pass and romped 90 yards to

On the whole , the game was marked by. rather ragged playing on the
part of Bloomsburg and by very excellent playing on the part of Shippensburg.

SPEEDBALL ORGANIZED
Girl s of the College whe are interested in athletics have begun to play

decided to adopt the sport in a bigger
program f or tho current season.
Games aro scheduled for 4:00
o'clock every Tuosday afternoon , and
all girls interested aro invited to report at that time. To date, about

Woodrow Litwhiler, taking time
between football practices to chase
down a few rabbits and pheasants,
came back to the campus with the
limit for both , two ring-necks and

Six Penns ylvania Teacher Colleges Now Play Liberal
Arts Neighbors
Athletic schedules of the Pennsylvania teachers colleges for the season of 1935 indicate for the first time
the results of a growing spirit of
friendshi p between teacher trainin g school and liberal ar t s schools , so
far as athletics are concerned. This
relationship has never before been recognized because of a supposed difference in athletic standards between
the two types of colleges.
Six Pennsylvania teachers colleges
are now scheduling liberal arts colleges for football. West Chester, for
many years the leader in the movement, plays a schedule of ten games,
nine of which are with their liberal „
arts friends • and. with universities.
Such teams as Rutgers University,.
P.M.C., Baltimore University, La Salle
College, Albright, Washington, and!
Waynesburg appear on the current
grid card at the Chester County
school. Lock Haven is the only Pennsylvania teashsr& college to play f
them.
Slipp ery Rock, one of Bloomsbu rg 's"
best western opponents, also schedules several neighboring liberal arts
colleges. On their schedule may be
found Geneva, Grove City, Waynesburg, and Thiel, all of which are located in the western part of the state.
Another teachers college appearing
on Bloomsburg's schedule which lists
liberal arts institutions for football is
East Stroudsburg. Springfield College, Panzer, and Ithica College "play

colleges going in for such schedules

Saturday's game is believed to be the
lon gest ever recorded fo r a Hu sky
punter, but a double penalty for both
Bloomsburg and Shippensburg resulted in its being called back.
According to the officials' decision
the Bloomsburg off-side penalty was
counter-acted by a Shippensburg penalty for clipping, and the play was
accordingly called back entirely.
The ball was kicked from Bloomsburg 's own five-yard line and traveled for at least sixty yards through
the air deep down into Shippensburg's territory, then bounced fast
down to the six-yard line, where it
was downed by Mericle.

Resurfacing Of Athletic Field
Expe cted To Begin
Soon.
Mr. Nevin Englehart, Superintendent of Grounds and Buildings for the
College, announces that many projects
in campus improvement have either
j ust been completed or are now under"way.
One of the major improvements is
listed as the completion of the new
recreat ion field , above the Trai n in g
School. Workers have resurfaced the
ground and have planted .grass seed,
with the result that the new field
now has a fairly good sod on it. The
latest project on the campus, and on e
new operation, is the rebuilding and
improving of the terrace on the children 's playground. Twenty men began work on October 30, and will continue on the project for about six
weeks. A new terrace will be pjit in
and a low, stone retaining wall is being built. Trees will be planted later
in the year to complete the plans.
Another project scheduled for about
the middle of this month is the resurfacing of the present athletic field,
Mount Olympus. The north side
grade on the field will be lowered one
foot and the south side grade will be
r aised one foo t. The cen t er will be
elevated fourteen inches, giving the
field a slightly mounded effect.
"When completed it should be similar
to the new recreation field.
Other project plans, for consideration as W.P.A. work, have been submitted, and approval is expected soon.
In ,the meantime the maintenance
crew, under the direction of Mr.
Engleh ar t, will con tinue to plant
hedges and t rees t o hel p beautify the

CRASKE PLEASES
IN CHAPEL SPEECH
Noted Scul ptor 's Personal ity
Attracts Students And
Fac ulty.
Before one of the most enthusiastic crowds of students this year
Leonard Craske, noted sculptor and
artist, lectured in chapel last Monday morning on the subject of sculpn
toring, taking the audience through
the many steps in the creation of
masterpieces.
The lecture, illustrated by many
fine pictures taken in 'Mr. Craske 's
¦own studio, was of an entriely different nature fro m what most audiences would expect of an artist so
well-known as the speaker last Monday. With n personality which seemed to reach right down into the Jnterested audience of faculty members
and students the noted Boston
sculptor defended his art in such a
manner as to arouse interest in
sculptu re by those who, previously,
took the work of sculptors merely as
n matter of fact.
Mr. Craske wns particularly interesting in that he declared as "bugaboo " the common belief tbat statues
are mad e, by geniuses. "Tho sculptor docs not do anything because he
is a genius," he assorted, "but
rather ho works and works, just like
any other worker. " Students and
faculty alike enjoyed tho artist's portrayal of studio life as advertised in
pictures and storlos. Those portrayals alone showod an ability to
act on tho pjart of Mr. Crasko. And
during his versatile life ho was an
actor too.

Jim Karnes and Joe Larish, both

ago.
Karnes and Larish are remembered by their Bloomsburg friends as two
of the very best harriers ever to wear
the maroon and gold on the cinder
path. In his senior year with the
local team Karnes proved to be the
most outstanding runner, pressed in
competition only by Bertoldi , then a
freshman. Probably the highlight of
his running career was reached when
he hitch-hiked, with Larish, to Philadelphia, where he won tho first annual
Yeatlon eight-mile race in 42 minutes,

EMPL OYMENT SUR VEY
First reported results of an extensive survey of occupations of
graduates from the Bloomsburg State Teachers College have been
made available for the Maroon and Gold by the director, Professor
Earl N. Rhodes. Beginning with the year 1933 Professor Rhodes reports that, of a class of 226 students, 134 of them are now teaching
school. From the class of 1934, 138 of the 221 members are teaching;

JUST ANOTHED SOUVENIR
A reporter for the Maroon and
Gold asked sixty-two different students whether he might borrow their
handbooks. iFifty-seven of them had
none an their possession at the time.
Four of the'five who did have copies
with them were m embers of the
f reshman class, probably carry-overs
from the days, earlier in their college careers, when upperclassmen
forced them to carry the College
[Handbook at all times.
The book is sm all; i t t akes u p n o
more room than other ordinary little
booklet s, su ch as season foo tball
schdeules for colleges; and, best of
all, it does contain some information
desired by students many times during the year. Perhaps students of
Bloomsburg have not yet learned the
nature of the contents of the Handbook. Perhaps they do not realize
that the book carries the answers to
almost all the ordinary questions
asked by themselves about the College.
Or perhaps the students have no
place to carry the book. That may be
an important reason why so few have
the College Handbook on their person ; but it isn 't a good reason for the
sixty-two questioned by the Maroon
and Gold, becauso all of thorn were
men students who woro coats. And
coats are usually made with pockets
in them.
It Is indeed a rather ridiculous situation. Everyone has a handbook of
his own ; yet everyono is constantly
wantimg to borrow someone else's.

topsy-turvey. In the
firs t place I read a n ews report from
a locality in central Pennsylvania
stating that, on the first day of
hunting season, two hunters were
shot in a group of five .while tihe entire group, before the double accide n t ,
had shot only four rabbits. The
actions of tlhe fifth rabbit seen during the day was said to have been
indirectly responsible for the double
accident. So we have, on tha t firs t
day, the following report : nu mb er
involved, five hunters and five rabbits; number killed, four rabbi t s;
number inj u red , two hunters. Sounds
like the report of a war correspondent , dosen 't it! But it's just our
topsy-turvey world. Rabbits, it
seems, are rebelling and turning the
tables.
Another example of the world "upside down " may be found in a conversation with a magazine agent.
"Esquire— The Magazine For Men "
sold to twice as many women on this
particular news stand as it did to
men. Strangely enough, the sam e
agent reports that he sells as many
copies of "Good Housekeeping" and
"The Woman's World" t© men ag he
does to their wives. A woman friend
of the writer tells of having gone
into a physician's waiting room,
there to sit patiently and await her
turn for consultation. Walking over
to the small library table in search
of a magazine she found nothing of
interest t o a woman , so she made a
glancing survey of the magazines being read by other pat
ients at the
time. She discovered two copies of
the woman's parallel to "Esquire,"
the magazine called "Madamoselle."
Both were being read by interestedlooking men. As interesting contrast, one lone woman was reading
"The Elk's Magazine." In closing,
the best chefs and cooks in the world
are men.

¦Featuring outstanding plays by
Pernet, Ryan, and Cavanaugh, veterans from las t seaso n, and the versatility of Bay, freshma n hope ^for the
iShiippensburg team, Coach Gulian 's
Red Devils succeeded in turning back
a team which had previously boasted
of an uncrossed goal line for the season. Their win last Saturday kept
them in the ranks of the undefeated
and increased their bid for st ate
championship.
In the initial period the Shippensburg valiants insured the large
Homecoming crowd of an interesting
game, when a 38-yard pass from
Cavanaugh to Bay opened ,a long
march down the field to the first
score of the game. Sweeney and
Mastrocola took turns carrying the
ball with the la tter plunging for the
touchdown.

During the second and third quarters the Huskies put up) a stubborn
defense , but weakened in the final
fif teen minut es of play. The most
thrilling part of tttie game came in
this last canto soon after -Bloomsburg
recovered the ball on Shippensburg's
12-yard line. Bay, the brilliant
fresh man back, intercepted Laubach's pass and romped 90 yards to
• make the third touchdown of the day
standing up.
On the whole , the game was marked by. rather ragged playing on the
part of Bloomsburg and by very excellent playing on the part of Shippensburg.

SPEEDBALL ORGANIZED
Girl s of the College whe are interested in athletics have begun to play
speed-ball , a combination of soccer

decided to adopt the sport in a bigger
program f or tho current season.
Games aro scheduled for 4:00
o'clock every Tuosday afternoon , and
all girls interested aro invited to report at that time. To date, about
fifty girls have signed for participation .

(Many Bloomsburg students ushered

first day out.
Woodrow Litwhiler, taking time
between football practices to chase
down a few rabbits and pheasants,
came back to the campus with the
limit for both , two ring-necks and

Six Penns ylvania Teacher Colleges Now Play Liberal
Arts Neighbors
Athletic schedules of the Pennsylvania teachers colleges for the season of 1935 indicate for the first time
the results of a growing spirit of
friendshi p between teacher trainin g school and liberal ar t s schools , so
far as athletics are concerned. This
relationship has never before been recognized because of a supposed difference in athletic standards between
the two types of colleges.
Six Pennsylvania teachers colleges
are now scheduling liberal arts colleges for football. West Chester, for
many years the leader in the movement, plays a schedule of ten games,
nine of which are with their liberal „
arts friends • and. with universities.
Such teams as Rutgers University,.
P.M.C., Baltimore University, La Salle
College, Albright, Washington, and!
Waynesburg appear on the current
grid card at the Chester County
school. Lock Haven is the only Pennsylvania teashsr& college to play f
them.
Slipp ery Rock, one of Bloomsbu rg 's"
best western opponents, also schedules several neighboring liberal arts
colleges. On their schedule may be
found Geneva, Grove City, Waynesburg, and Thiel, all of which are located in the western part of the state.
Another teachers college appearing
on Bloomsburg's schedule which lists
liberal arts institutions for football is
East Stroudsburg. Springfield College, Panzer, and Ithica College "play

colleges going in for such schedules

Saturday's game is believed to be the

punter, but a double penalty for both
Bloomsburg and Shippensburg resulted in its being called back.
According to the officials' decision
the Bloomsburg off-side penalty was
counter-acted by a Shippensburg penalty for clipping, and the play was
accordingly called back entirely.
The ball was kicked from Bloomsburg 's own five-yard line and traveled for at least sixty yards through
the air deep down into Shippensburg's territory, then bounced fast
down to the six-yard line, where it
was downed by Mericle.

Resurfacing Of Athletic Field
Expe cted To Begin
Soon.
Mr. Nevin Englehart, Superintendent of Grounds and Buildings for the
College, announces that many projects
in campus improvement have either
j ust been completed or are now under"way.
One of the major improvements is
listed as the completion of the new
recreat ion field , above the Trai n in g
School. Workers have resurfaced the
ground and have planted .grass seed,
with the result that the new field
now has a fairly good sod on it. The
latest project on the campus, and on e
new operation, is the rebuilding and
improving of the terrace on the children 's playground. Twenty men began work on October 30, and will continue on the project for about six
weeks. A new terrace will be pjit in
and a low, stone retaining wall is being built. Trees will be planted later
in the year to complete the plans.
Another project scheduled for about
the middle of this month is the resurfacing of the present athletic field,
Mount Olympus. The north side
grade on the field will be lowered one
foot and the south side grade will be
r aised one foo t. The cen t er will be
elevated fourteen inches, giving the
field a slightly mounded effect.
"When completed it should be similar
to the new recreation field.
Other project plans, for consideration as W.P.A. work, have been submitted, and approval is expected soon.
In ,the meantime the maintenance
crew, under the direction of Mr.
Engleh ar t, will con tinue to plant
hedges and t rees t o hel p beautify the
campus.

CRASKE PLEASES
IN CHAPEL SPEECH
Noted Scul ptor 's Personal ity
Attracts Students And
Fac ulty.
Before one of the most enthusiastic crowds of students this year
Leonard Craske, noted sculptor and
artist, lectured in chapel last Monday morning on the subject of sculpn
toring, taking the audience through
the many steps in the creation of
masterpieces.
The lecture, illustrated by many
fine pictures taken in 'Mr. Craske 's
¦own studio, was of an entriely different nature fro m what most audiences would expect of an artist so
well-known as the speaker last Monday. With n personality which seemed to reach right down into the Jnterested audience of faculty members
and students the noted Boston
sculptor defended his art in such a
manner as to arouse interest in
sculptu re by those who, previously,
took the work of sculptors merely as
n matter of fact.
Mr. Craske wns particularly interesting in that he declared as "bugaboo " the common belief tbat statues
are mad e, by geniuses. "Tho sculptor docs not do anything because he
is a genius," he assorted, "but
rather ho works and works, just like
any other worker. " Students and
faculty alike enjoyed tho artist's portrayal of studio life as advertised in
pictures and storlos. Those portrayals alone showod an ability to
act on tho pjart of Mr. Crasko. And
during his versatile life ho was an
actor too.

Add Names To That Of Bertoldi; For Berwick
Mar athon
Jim Karnes and Joe Larish, both
graduates of Bloomsburg Teachers
College , have signified their intentions of entering the Berwick Marathon, Thanksgiving Dey, thus bringing the total Bloomsburg representation to fehree runners. Bertoldi announced similar intentions two weeks
ago.
Karnes and Larish are remembered by their Bloomsburg friends as two
of the very best harriers ever to wear
the maroon and gold on the cinder
path. In his senior year with the
local team Karnes proved to be the
most outstanding runner, pressed in
competition only by Bertoldi , then a
freshman. Probably the highlight of
his running career was reached when
he hitch-hiked, with Larish, to Philadelphia, where he won tho first annual
Yeatlon eight-mile race in 42 minutes,
56 seconds,
Larish, for Beveral years the running mate of Jim Karnes, also made a
