Manners
"Do I have manners ?" asked
John ny, aged five. "What are manners anyway, Sister?"
"Well" , began Sister Sue, "re a l
manners are things all of us need
and only a few of us have. They
aren't just politeness, although that
plays an important part, but they begi n somewhere inside of you—in a
lit tle corner of your heart. They
aren 't jus t so many social rules or
ways of doing things, but they have
a real purpose and kindly meaning.
As you grow older, Johnny, and begin to develop your personality and
cultivate your manners, don't say
"yes, Sir," "thank you," or "I beg
your pardon" just because it is the
proper thing to do, but really mean
what you say. These manners will
always serve you best, for they are
the manners of a gentleman.
[ That night as Johnny boarded the
new transport plane called "Sleep",
he said to the pilot:
"Manners are such simple things ;
'
Im sure you do agree
That all of yours are part of you
And mine are part of me.
My Sister Sue has often said
Politeness plays a part,
But real ones, she does believe,
Are deep within your heart.

Farewell Seniors!

Now if you think this over
You will readily see
Just how a little boy should act,
A boy 'bout size of me."

63,757 Teachers
The study of the professional status of teSchers for the current school
year, 1937-'38, completed by the Department of Public Instruction during the past month , shows that the
total number of teachers i§ 63.7S7 of
whom 99.8 per cent hold certificates
of standard grade, and 42.3 per cent
hold college certificates. The figures
reveal an increase of 492 teachers,
and an increase of 2.4 per cent of
teachers holding college certificates.
An increased demand for special
preparation in the field of Phychological examiner and public school
psychologist is indicated by the fact
that twenty-five such certificates
have been issued.
The demand for increased qualifications for administrative and supervisory officials is also indicated in
the nu mber of such certificates
granted. Du ring the past month , sixty-three administrative and supervisory certificates were issued, while
thirty-nine letters of eligibility were
sent out to prospective superintendents.
Nine hundred and seventy-one certificates of various other types were
also issued. Two hundred fifty-seven
college certifica tes were issued as

Sp e c t a t t l e R
At last the day is upon us! Since
parting is sad , we won't say much,
except to wish you all the most pleasant summer vacation and a job to
everyone of the graduating class.
Too bad you under classmen won't
be here on Alumni Day to hear the
Carver Hall -feell ring. It's the first
time in many years, so we hope it
works.
The Senior girls don't seem to approve of the regulation stockings
they are to wear with their caps and
gowns. Black is sort of dark for
this time of year. But cheer up,
girls, black is supposed to be flattering.
What do you think of the choice of
the "Typical College Couple"? We
think the ju dges certainly knew their
stuff!
And do you remember how lovely
the May Queen looked? She certainly made a pretty picture coming
regally down the side of the hill.
Are you going to Bermuda on the
28th? You better make your reservations today.
The Senior French and Latin students are still telling us about the

delicious dinner they had at Prof.
Fenste m ake r's house and all about
the fun. Well, we can console ourselves by saying we'll be Senio rs
soon.
Are you coming to summer school ?
According to all the regrets we've
heard expressed at leaving the place,
there ough t to be a large enrollment.
What do you think of the new
method used in making certain that
the audience doesn't miss anything
going on on the stage during a discussion or speech . Dean Andruss
started the idea last Friday during
the panel discussion. We think it's
a good way of letting the speaker
know that someone is missing his
message.
Dr. North has a novel way of ending up his courses. At the last meeting of each class he asks the students
for any ways in which he may improve his fut ure classes. He got
.
some good suggestions.
Aren't the Senior Ball programs a
beaut? They 'll be lovely souvenirs
to keep.
:
Well , good luck!

Dean Harvey A. Andruss, of the

by the National Council. All of the
current terms in the field of education will be defined , compared , and

probably all the cinema heroes in
America and they have appeared in
the local theatre a number of times.
Mr. Keller was delighted at this unusual opportunity and when producer
Jack Eaton sent his representative,
Red Warren, over to the Keller's
home with a contract for production
of a movie this summer, plans were
definitely established for the shooting of the picture. The subject of
the film will be the training of wild
animals and scenes will be shot in
sound at the Jungle Farm this summer. Since the Jungle Farm on the
Bloomsburg-Berwick road is to be
open all summer including the period
of film production , visitors will have
the unusual opportunity of seeing
how big time movies are made in
sound by professional cameramen.
This strange hobby of Mr. Keller's
which begins its second year under
this name and third year as an exhibit has outgrown the back yard stage
wherein most hobbies are permanently maintained. It has grown to be a
real thing not a reproduction but a
genuine, full-grown unusuality—
which has proven its status in the
amusement world by the 17,000 paid
admissions it commanded last summer—a number far beyond the fondest dreams of its creator. However,
with the added publicity through radio, moving pi ctures and magazines,
plus the added features, Mr. Keller
expects 25,000 visitors at his Jungle
Farm this summer. The featured act
this year will be an act constituting
one African lion, three mountain lions, a leopard and two lions all in
one ring. The featured exhibit will
be a pure whito deer bought at great
expense from a game farm in Alabama. This animal will be the only
one of its kind on exhibition in Pennsylvania.
Tho Jungle Farm will remain on
the highway between Bloomsburg
and Berwick until after July 4. Then
it will bo exhibited at big parks , summer resorts and three or four county
fairs throughout the state until the
wintor season sots in again.

Again the Philadelphia alumni of
the B. S. T. C. held their annual reunion in the North Gardens on the
15th floor of the Bellevue-Stratford
in th at city. Again they called on
the A-Capella and the Maroon and
Gold Symphony Orchestra to entertain during the dinner. Naturally
the students of both groups look
forward to this delightful trip as
guests of the "big brothers and sisters of The City ' 'and this year as
in the past they were not disappointed.
For a majori ty of the members of
both organi z a t ions , after a hilarious
and pleasant trip of singing and music aboard the buses, the Earle Theatre was the obj ective of diversity for
the afternoon where Guy Lombardo
and his Royal Canadians played in
person. Those who did not attend
the movie and stage show took in
t he gigantic May Day parade on
Broad. Street and the Communist
Rally at the square.
In the evening there was the banquet , which is as usual a gorgeous
affair in the elaborately furnished *"
Bellevue. Here both organizations
entertained in a manner that was
well received by the Alumni They
appreciated the efforts of the local
students and extended their invitation to them for a bigger and better
banquet next year.
Sunday morning at 10:00 E. S. T.
found the groups seated in their
Greyhounds pointing toward Bloomsburg. Again another hilarious session was held with "She was Only
a Bird in a Gilded Cage" being the
theme of the bus chorus while "Dipsy Doodle " and Philly-to-Bloom jam
session, uninterrupted , held the attention of the instrumentalist.
"A good time was had by all", for
none will deny that frpm every, point
of view—entertainment et al.—the
trip was most successful.

"Parting is such sweet sorrow "—
Shakespeare.
Now the time has come when the
seniors must say "Farewell to
Bloomsburg."
Many of the senior boys may well
feel with the great German poet,
Goethe,—
"Let mine eyes tell all at parting,
For my lips they never can!
Hard ! How hard! these tears keep
starting
Yet I thought I was a man."
These lines are quoted from Goethe's "The Parting" in which he expresses with beautiful eloquence, the
same sad feeling that comes to the
seniors upon graduation,
Through the minds of the seniors
will flash many poignant memories of
the four years that have fled with
Mercury 's wing-footed swiftness.
But remember, seniors, — don't let
reading become a lost art during this
next vacation. Keep up with contemporary literature and try to contribute some of your own. It's a wellknown fact that in this year's class
there is much hidden talon for literature.
Why not give some of your efforts
to the worj.d , so Hint when you return to B. S. T. C. on some other
alumni day, our Alma Mater will be
proud to call you her own.
And to the under classmen, —
don 't uso the libra ry merely as a socinl room! Stock up on knowledge
so Hint you don 't have to cram for
student ienclilng the way some of
us did!
And lot's nil come buck on HomecomliiR Day to receive our Alma MaIov'h recognition.

New Form of Chapel Prog ram
Proves Both Interesting
And Educational

the panel members was a wise one ,
and provided an excellent cross section of college opinion.
Keen interest on the part of the
audience was displayed throughout
the entire discussion. It was evidenced also by the very excellent
contribution given later when the
question was thrown open to the audience for discussion.
A new and worthwhile feature was
devised by Dean Andruss to eliminate the possibilities of anyone not
hearing the speakers. Anyone in the
audience by merely raising his hand,
could make known to the speaker the
fact that he wasn't speaking loudly
enough. This idea could be utilized
to advantage on many occasions.
The value of a panel discussion is
great in that it not only provides entertainment, but Induces thinking
and organization on the part of listeners.
Certainly, from various comments
made on this new type of program,
it has proved successful enough to receive a prominent place on the annual chapel lists.

A new form of chapel exercise was
innovated on Friday, May 13. This
was a program in the form of a panel
discussion. The panel was composed
of nine members, six of them students, two, faculty members, and was
presided over by Dean Andruss. The
faculty members were Dr. Russell,
geography department head, and
Miss Edna J. Hazen, head of the Intermediate and Rural Education. The
student body was represented by
Dorothy Jane Frick, Helen Weaver,
Margaret Potter, Robert Price, Ben
Singer, and John Bower.
The question up for discussion was

Husky Trackmen Athletic Banquet
Rout Susquehanna Considered Success
Sweep All First Places M any Awards Given to
Student Athletes
Coach Buchheit's state track and

field champions concluded another
undefeated season on Tuesday, May
17, when they completely submerged
the Susquehanna University Crusaders by the overwhelming score of
100H to 25%. Thus, the Husky
trackmen have not been defeated in
dual competition for three years.
Captain Frank Van Devender, the
one man track team, took first place
in all five events he entered to come
within y2 point of the total amassed
by Susquehanna. The Huskies of
Coach George C. Buchheit took all
first places, nine of the second positions, and three of the third and divided a third place in the pole vault.
The Huskies made it a field day in
more than one respect by setting four
new records. Captain Van Devender,
the "Flying Van " went over the timbers in the 120 yard high hurdles in
the fast time of 16 seconds. Van also
set a new record in the 220-yard low
hurdles with a time of 24.8 seconds.
In the half mile, Dan Kemple's time
of 2:1.8 set a new record. Dan Bonham, the frosh from Forty Fort, bettered his own record in the javelin
when he hurled it 199 feet, 2 inches.
So Bloomsburg 's championship track
squad has ended the season like the
champions they are.
Congratulations to the Huskies of
George Buchheit, and may next season hold even higher accomplishments.

1938 Husky Track Team Shatters Many Records
Husky Baseball Near ing Close
BASEBALL SEASON Coach Buchheit Again Produces
Of Another Successf ul Year
AT A GLANCE
A Championship Track Squad
Bloomsburg State Teachers College
has been once again represented by a
fine baseball team. This week will
bring to a close a season which has
seen victories over such powerful
teams as Western Maryland, the
University of Pennsylvania, Lock
Haven , and many others. The record so far' shows 6 wins and only
3 losses for the regular schedule.
In exhibition games, however, the
Huskies have managed to win only
half of their four games.
The outstanding feature of the past
baseball season resulted from the
successful road trip taken by the
Huskies during the Easter vacation.
They managed to secure victories
from Western Maryland and University of Pennsylvania only to end the
trip with an unexpected defeat at
the hands of Delaware University.
However, by their two victories the
Huskies caused baseball mogols to
sit up and take notice of an "upand-coming" college baseball team.
The highly successful tour was
brought to a sudden halt because of
several injuries suffered by three of
the Huskie players.
Bloomsburg will lose only two
players this year by graduation, but
both of these will be missed greatly.
Al Fi n der , a fiery shortstop with a
marvelous throwing arm, has been
scooping up grounders for four years
on Mt. Olympus. Out in centerfield
Bloomsburg loses its hardest hitter,
Danny Litwhiler, who has been hitting home runs and driving in runs
ever since he join ed the Huskies.
Briefly summarizing, we have Andrew Giermak and. Sheldon Jones as

catchers. The infield has been formed of Wenrich and Houseknecht at
first base, Koniecko at second , Al
Finder at second, and Bill Forsythe
and Al Karpalonia at third. The

outfield has been comprised of Danny Litwhiler, Sterling Banta, Fred
Houck , and McCutcheon. The hurlers who have labored on the mound,
this spring have been Norrrlan Maza , Paul Barrall, Sterling Banta , and
Girton.
Saturday, the Huskies will bring
the season to a close against Bucknell before a large crowd of Alumni.
Everyone is rooting for Doctor Nelson and his boys to end the season
with a hard-fought victory. We all
hope that the Nelson tradition of
brightly colored stockings will again
bring victory to Bloomsburg.
