Thursday Night

Of First Regular Grading
Period

The Eleventh Annual Rotary- Kiwanis College night, held at the College on Thursday, March 10, was a
big success. The program began
with a dinner meeting at 6:00 p.m.
in the College dining room. Following the dinner the guests adjourned
to the auditorium for a program presented by the students of the College.
Included in this program were various dramatic and musical, instrumental and vocal contributions. The
whole group enjoyed dancing in the
gymnasium after the program.
The most entertaining feature of
the evening was the new colored film ,
"Education For Teaching" produced
by Prof. George Keller. The movie
portrayed the various professional
activities that function in the preparation of a prospective teacher
from the time the candidate enters
the college until graduation. This
beautiful all-color movie is the second in a series being developed by
the college. The first of the series
which was so well received is known
as "Alma Mater."

At the recent meeting of the Student Council a plan was set up for
Freshman elections. Hereafter Freshman officers will be elected at the
end of the first permanent grading
period. Any Freshman with a 1.3
average will be eligible. The president and faculty advisor of the class
will take charge of the incoming
freshman class. The officers will hold
office the second semester of ,their
first year and the fiirst semester of
their sophomore year.
The council also discussed the matter of setting up the office of associate editor of the Obiter. .
Plans were formulated for a radio
broadcast to be given April 6. Reports will be given by the Social
Sommittg©, Public Relations Committee, and the Assembly Program
Committee.
Four delegates have been appointed
to the Convention of the Eastern
States Association of Professional
Schools for Teachers to be held in
New York City, April 7, 8, 9.
A new rule has been adopted concerning the quota at class meetings.
At least half the class must be present in order to make the meeting
valid. A class may raise the quota.

At a recent meeting of tho YWCA,
Alberta Bralnard and Helen Derr
gave a report of the Christian Youth
Conference in tho Poconos which
they attended as delegates of tho
college Y.W. Joyco Dossen gave an
interesting talk on tho "Jewish Religion."
Officers for noxt year will bo oloctod at tho noxt mooting, and tho
cabinet will be appointed.

Mrs. Dillon, wife of the local florist ,
was guest speaker at tho regular
meeting of the A. B. C. Club on
Tuesday, March 8. Mrs. Dillon spoke
on the correct use of flowers for
homo, costume, nnd the schoolroom.
She gave the mombors of tho club
some advance hints on the kind of
corsages which will bo worn with tho
new spring fashions.
On March 15, Mr. Keller, college
art professor, will give somo suggestions on selecting clothes to suit
your coloring and personality.

Freeland, defending champions of the
Bloomsburg tourney, and Bloomsburg, winners of the Susquehanna
League.
Freeland lost a tough one to Luzerne after s e t t i n g a fast pace
throughout the firs t three quarters,
The final score, resulting from a
last-minute rally by the up-river
players, was 31 to 26.
Bloomsburg High School, after capturing honors in their first year as
members of a newly-organized Susquehanna League, went to Treverton last Wednesday night where they
threw a real scare into the Stale
title hopes of a fast-stepping Coal
Township five , only to lose by a
score of 39 to 33,
The two teams battled on oven
terms for over three quarters before
a Demon spurt of three quick field
goals pulled them into a comfortable
lead, where they remained until the

With the hopes of Freoland and
Bloomsburg vanished as a result of
close defeats in tho State eliminntlons , both arc anxious to make the

The regular Wednesday evening
college broadcast was given on March

program this week was in charge of

The highlight of the program was
a talk given by Mr. Forney. Among
the other numbers were popular
songs sung by Frank Patrick, and
others by Violet Pataki, who is n
senior in the Commercial Curriculum

The program was closed by remarks given by Dean Koch.

Walter K. Smart , professor in the
English department of Northwestern
University's School of Commerce and
Journalism. Persons representing
virtually all classes of society are
wading into the streams of speech
up to their larynges.
The upshot of it all will be, he
ventures, a pronounced general improvement in verbal and written expression. "Much of our slang is picturesque and keenly alive," Dr.
Smart says "Some of it is the inspiration of genius. The trouble is
that after the genius empolys it,
every fool comes along and uses it,
turning it into another bromide."

LIBRARY SOCIALIZATION
SCORED AT MINNESOTA THINKS AMERICANS ADD
Dissatisfaction with the growing MOST TO THE LANGUAGE

tendency of students to use the library for "social purposes" has led
15Q students at the University of
Minnesota to sign a petition asking
tho student-faculty relations committee of the All-University council
to investigate.
Talking in the reading rooms has
reached the point, It seems, where
tho students themselves are protesting. Establishment of a discussion
room in the main library has been
offered as a possible solution to the
problem.

(An A.C.P. Feature-;

A new movement, the Youth Hostel
Mo vement , has started in the United
States in reference to the education
of its youth. It is a movement which
was started in Europe for the convenience of youth with a wanderlust.
The movement came to America with
the establishment of one Youth Hostel in Northfield, Massachusetts. The
directors are two Americans, Isabel
and Monroe Smith, who were guests
at the International Conference of
Youth Hostels in Europe in 1933 and
were there officially invited to take
the idea to this country. In October,
1934, at the third International Youth
Hostel Conference opened by Ramsay MacDonald in London, the .American Youth Hostel Association was
recognized as the eighteenth association to be included m the International Youth Hostel gathering. In
this country the directors are assisted by a National Executive Committee and a National Board.
This new m o v e m e n t will give

el. President Roosevelt, in addressing this group, said, "From the time
I was nine till I was seventeen I
spent most of my holidays bicycling
on the Continent. This was the best
education I ever had—far better than
schools. The more one travels the
better citizen he becomes, not only .
of his own country but of the world."

On Sunday, March 6, Waller Hall
experimented with a new idea—that
of having open house the first Sunday of each month for relatives and
friends from home. Because of
threatening bad weather early in
the day the attendance was small
but those who did come were welL
pleased. Taking everything into consideration, the exepriment can be
said to be successful and we hope
it can be carried out each month.
An Emerson radio has been installed in the recreation room on fourth
floor. Plans are being made for the
redecoration of this room.

Dramatic Fraternity
Will Present Plays
Casts consisting of members of the
local chapter of Alpha Psi Omega,
national dramatic fraternity, will
present two one-act plays in chapel
next Monday morning.
Tho plays will be "Common Clay, "
representing a court scene, and "Riders to the Sea," a well-known Irish
production. They will present extremes in general tone.

Students and others present at tho
