The Maroon and Gold Dance Orchestra, under the direction of "Tiny "
Bill Pegg put in a praise-worthy performance before the student body
this morning. The orchestra has been
enlarged since the last appearance of
the pep dance; the additions give
them top rating as the College Dance
Orchestra.
The boys practice regularly every
Wednesday afternoon at four and
occasionally Tuesday and Thursday
evenings.
The vocal department was well
controlled by lovely Reba Henrie
assisted by the three "Squires" of
the brass section Bill Booth, Paul
Klinger, and Joe "Red" Madl.
Ray Perry did a good job pounding
the skins while "Fritz" Worman
tickled the ivory. Sam Cohen, oomph
man, took charge of the bass horn.

At the last mooting of the Science
Club , it was decided that the club
put on a chap el pro gram sometime in
the second semester. No definite date
has been set. The club discussed several scientific topics. Clayton Patterson told the club about the "Helicopter ", a new type of aircraft built on
the same principlo as an autoglro.
There is no doflnlto pro gram for the
future program.

Their Next Goal

(Continued on Page 4)

Students participating in the C. A.
A. course have completed the most
important stage of their flying career
—solo. The ten students having completed the required eight hours of
instruction set by the Civil Aeronautics Authority, have made their first
flight without an instructor.
They explained soloing as a most
wonderful sensation. Were they
frightened ? Well, a litt le, but they
were entirely too busy to have much
fear of the six hundred feet between
them and the earth. They had a
strange feeling of being very much
alone and insignificant without the
usual broad shoulders of Sam Bigony
and Bobby Guss, flight instructors,
in front of them. Then , too, the absence of the instructor's weight made
the plane act as if it were at the
mercy of the winds and as though the
sky was the limit.

more advanced flying, will fly without

COOPERATI ON
In any successful and progressive town, city, school , or state there
is one element that must prevail, and that is cooperation. When a
project is started there are certain people appointed to serve as leaders
and supervisors. These same leaders, for that is their main function ,
have assigned to them a committee of various individuals to carry out
certain specific duties. We "Will ta ke for granted that these leaders
Jcnow th eir jobs, and are capable of efficient handling of them. They
assign to their committee definite work to do at a definite time. If this
is an unpai d public welfare program , the execution of the plan is left
to the committee. The success of the program depends upon the interest, reliability, and, ii you wish, loyalty of the individuals on the
committees. The desire of each person to do his share to the best of
his ability.
Since we are members of an educational institution I will confine
this discussion to our college. To make a still more definite case I will
endeavor to interpret or analyze cooperation in regard to our annual
Homecoming celebration. The committees for this day are under the
direction of faculty members who have proved their determination to
make this day a success. The bulk of the committees are made up of
members of the freshman class. In fact all freshmen are assigned to
committees. This is onl y natural as the freshmen are new to the school,
and are in need of experience in working collectively for a common
cause. This is not with the idea that the frosh should "do the dirty
work". On the contrary, this is not dirty work, but the main factor in
making this day the biggest day of the school year. Every freshman
shoulcf feel proud in working to make it such. Yes, every student
should be proud to work in behalf of the school, of which he is a part.
As freshmen the students at B. S. T. C, make impressions. First
impressions are hard to erase from the minds of those with whom they
will associate for four years. Their first opportunity to really show
their willingness to cooperate is the Homecoming preparation. They
are given very definite assi gnments to carry out at a certain time and
place, Freshmen are not asked to do this decorating, etc., on their own
initiative, but the work is planned for them. All they do is to fulfill
or execute the p Jan. This is not asking much—just the desire to help.
It will be those students who show that they may be depended
on to perform a duty or obligation, no matter how trivial, who will
be called on to act as leaders, to make plans, and to take part in
responsible activities that will come later in college life. This is your
school freshmen , cooperation will make you proud of B. S. T. C.

and make this dazzling play possible.
In other words, in order for the team
to be successful, every player must

work together for the common good
of the team. Each player consequently tends to develop a spirit of cooperation, initiative, and loyalty.
These qualities in turn are transferrable over to both the student's social
and political life. Initiative is very,
very important for any student*to
cultivate because, since his life is not
a charted course, he must learn to
adapt himself to any situation and
know how to act in a crisis.
The second activity I might cite is
some musical activity. The Maroon
and Gold Band is an excellent opportunity for the student possessing
musical ability. Of course, this does
not mean the 'student must be a virtuoso. Perhaps the student that is
somewhat of a novice may greatly
improve himself by the constant
practice and association with the other band members. After a band member has played for four years, he
should possess sufficient musical
knowledge to direct a high school
band. Many teachers that have been
chosen for teaching positions did not
have the slightest idea that they were"
going to direct a band and some have
even been turned down because they
were unable to direct a band. Consequently the student can see the value
of spending his time in this activity.

Dear Editor :
lhat stupendous Homecoming Day
enjoyed by Bloomsburg featured various activities, including the football
game and the dance . No dou bt a
marvelous time was had by all until
the dance. At the dance every one
fell into two groups, one happy, the
other a trifle sad and envious—I' m
not referring to the music because
that was smooth.
On the floor—somewhat crowded—
swayed the happy couples to the vibrant strains of our Alma Mater
orchestra. Sitting on the bleachers
were male and female representatives
of the bald-headed row—of which I
am an unwilling member. The more

the couples swayed the more the baldheaded row prayed. Their prayer remained unanswered and they did not
dance. Perhaps it was because they
did not know how.
I prayed then and I am praying
now. Please, why doesn't some kind
hearted soul start a dancing class?
Dancing is a social must; we who
haven't learned are tardy but not
absent. There should be a class to fit
the needs of both the dorm and day
students.
If you think about this and react
favorably, contact your paper, ' your
f riends , and the faculty, and really do
something for the bald headed row !

"Madame Dorthea" is Sigrid Undset's latest novel to be published in
the United States. Because of her
patriotic work during the time of the
recent Nazi invasion , Sigrid Undsot
was driven from her native home,

"Madame Dorthea " was written in
Sweden, the spirit and the life of
the Norwegian people of the eighteenth century is vividly portrayed.
The story opens with the disappearance of Madame Dorthea 's eldest sons, Claus and Vllhelm, and their

takes care of them and sends word
of their safety to Dorthea, Thestrup,

Conner Leads Soccer Men In
5-0 Win Over Mighty
Lock Haven Team
Paced by "Tuffy" Conner the B. S.
T. C. Booters swamped the mighty
Bald Eagled 5-0. On a field that was
wet and muddy the Bloom team pushed their winning streak to three in
a row.
First Half Deadlock
For the entire thirty-six minutes
of the first half the two teams battled
in what looked to be a fight to the
finish . The Lock Haven boys seemed
to be doing most of the offensive
work in the first quarter. Time and
again they pushed deep into Bloom
territory only to be denied scoring by
the steller work of Wagner, Collie,
and Deaner, the Huskies last line of
defense. Numerous penalties on the
Bald Eagles, for illegal use of the
hands, also aided the local boys.
The second quarter started with
the Huskies on the offensive. The
backs fed the ball to the line who
sniped at the goal in a barrage of
shots in a futile effort to score.
Huskies "Mush"
On the opening play Yeany "stole"
the ball from an Eagle lineman, passed to Kostenbauder, who centered
to Slussifr, who slammed it through
for the first score of the day. The
next play gave Bloom a penalty kick,
and Slusser booted in the second
score. From this point on B.S.T.C.
had everything their own way. Kostenbauder brought a cheer from the
stands with a spectacular dribble
through the Lock Haven defense and
kicked the goal unassisted. Not to be
outdone Conner booted one through
that carried the opponent goalie with
it. Here the third quarter ended and
the teams changed fields.
Kostenbauder and Yeany performed another "second story" job in the
opening minutes of the fourth frame
and scored number five for the Maroon and Gold. Coach Wisher started
sending in replacements at this point.
The subs did nice work in keeping
their goal uncrossed, and the breaks
alone kept th em from scoring.

By Alex Foster

The recent contribution of the college athletic committee towards the
improvement of Bloomsburg's athletic field is definitely a step in the right
direction. The field is to be completely re-modeled with a new lighting system to be a predominate feature. The college according to the proposed
set-up may be able to use the field for several night games.
Such a movement will tend to put this institution on the level with
similar colleges and universities throughout the country who play under the
lamps. Bloomsburg is without a doubt a football-minded school but the game
must be given a chance to prosper. Movements like this should be encouraged
not only by the students but by the school officials as well.
WE HAVE SOMETHING HERE •
The enthusiasm tendered the football squad on their recent rout of
Shippensburg is evidence of the spirit that dwells within these buildings.
Pep-rallys are essential in moulding a spirit and moral among the students
and players.
We cannot allow this fire to die out. The team has but one more game
on its schedule and that being with the mighty Stroudsburg combination this
Saturday. We should be represented by several hundred ardent supporters in
the forthcoming joust.
Stroudsburg has a fine team but so does Bloomsburg. With proper
support from the students, the Huskies may win this game. Let our slogan
be—"On to Stroudsburg".
GET YOUR GUN

This is not a draft quotation but a reminder that the hunting season
has already gotten underway. Many of our enterprising students have
shouldered their shot-guns and are tramping the woods in quest of wild life.
Several have returned the proud-possessor of some small game, but then
there are still others who have nary a one.
Perhaps you successful hunters wouldn't mind reporting your prizes to
your sports staff. Certainly your fellow-students would be pleased to know
just what luck you found while you were a 'totin your shooting-iron.
STIFF OPPOSITION

When reading the list of untied, unbeaten football teams in the country
it leaves little doubt as to the stiff opposition that the Huskies have had to
face all year. Three state teachers colleges are in this class and all three are

on this year's schedule.
Indiana, Millersville and East Stroudsburg boast these enviable records.
Indiana beat the Huskies 33-0 while Millersville won out 13-0, and Stroudsburg is on the books for this weekend.
Of these teams, probably Stroudsburg has the stronger club and the
potential conference champion. In Tommy Kearns, they have a quarter-back
that ranks fifth in the East in scoring. Kearns has notched nine touchdowns
and registered a total of 56 points.

WALLER HALL
NEWS
Homecoming week-end was a very
importan t one for Waller Hall girls.
Previous to this the rooms received
a general housecleaning in preparation for room judging, and many
rooms received attractive and honorable mention signs for their doors ,
At this time of the year when you
pass through the halls you get a
glimpse of a variety of sizes and
colored signs on doors. If you served
on any of the committees of Waller
you received a sign.
The tea which was sponsored by
the social committees of Day and
Dorm girls on Saturday, was very
successful. Everyone enjoyed a cup
of tea after such an exciting game.
The WalJer Hall girls have a surprise
in store for you so follow up the Waller Hall news in every issue of the
Maroon and Gold for the grand news.

Miuch Ado About
Nothing
By Larry Myers

How time flies. . . The nine weeks
period is practically over and it
scarcely seems possible that we've
been here that long (except to those
unfortunate people who got the pretty white slips the profs hand out).
Question : Could Walter Mohr and
Santa Claus fit in the same phone
booth ? No? Wrong. They could because there ain 't no Sant a Clau s!!
Jack Schlauch has shown us some
work he 's done over the summer.
It' s a reflecting telescope with a fourinch mirror which he ground by hand.
It's q uite an ingenious affair and
from his place on, as Mr. Keller
would say, Snob Hill, it's possible to
read the lettering on the buildings
down at the airport. His next will
have a six-inch mirror.
The campaign speeches in chapel
were honeys. A certain group whose
names obviously must not be mentioned here made many plans to frustrate the Democrats. One bright
chap, son of an auto-dealer, suggested
itching powder down Lavelle's back
j ust before his speech. Another
thought it would be a good idea to
kidnap him. Still a third wanted to
roll metal wastebaskets down the fire
tower steps. Finally the spirit of fair
play prevailed and it was decided that
the Republican ticket and platform
could stand on its own strength.
Note for the lonely hearts—The
ratio of girls to fellows at Kutztown
is two to one. Look into that, Meyers.
The team didn't do so well with the
tricky Kutztown team and we've just
found out the reason why. Nobody
offered to donate a raincoat to the
British. Will somebody please do
something about that before the East
Stroudsburg game ? We know the
boys are in there fighting every minute but something extra helps a lot.
Watch later issues for a few startling
football facts.
We heard this about Mr. Fisher. It
seems that he bought a new car sometime ago. The garage man brought it
up in front of the house and left it
there. Mr. Fisher came home that
day and saw it there and didn't say
anything about it. He came home the
next day and it was still there and he
still said nothing. The third day he
came home and looking out the window after supper, he saw it hadn't
moved so he went over to the phone
and called up the police to ask whose
car it was!!
And still another "anecdote". Danny Brennan was asked one day what
brand of cigarettes he smoked. He
replied , "I don 't know, I' m too polite
to ask."!!!
