Coming Sen ior Class Activities
This year 's Seniors await February
2 and 5 with imp atience. These are
the dat es of the annual Senior ball
and banquet . Stella Williams heads
both events. Under her, Helen Parangosky is chairman of the ball and
Janet Shank is chairman of the banquet.
Unable to secure the Elks Club for
the dance on a Saturday evening, the
ciass voted* to separate the banquet
and dance and make two evenings of
it.
Stella Williams has announced that
the class will gather for the banquet
next Wednesday at the Elks Club
from 6:00 P. M. to 6:30 P. M. Louise
Madl , pr esident of the class, will be
toastmistress for the evening.
Seniors will have their ball at the
Eastern Star room on the second
floor of Hausknecht' s Gar age at the
foot of College Hill. Dancing will
begin at 8:00 P. M. and continue
until 12:00.
Students responsible for the affair
are: Dance Programs, Jean Ackerman , Carmel Sirianni; Decorations ,
Pauline Niles. Betsy Smith: Refreshments , Sally Dockey, Sam Mazzeo;

It is imperative that dormitory
students hand the names of their
guests for ball and banquet to Stella
Williams and day students to Janet
Shank. The deadline for names is
Monday, January 31. Seniors allocated S4.50 of their year 's dues to cover
the expenses for the evening 's f un.
Any Senior is entitled to one guest
but must pay an additional $1.25.

MID-SEMESTER GRADUATION
On January 24, 1944, four members of the Senior class met the requirements for graduation. These
people who officially completed their
coll ege careers are Helen Behler, Leona Oakes, Edward Manley and Samuel Trepani.
Since these graduates will be included in the graduation exercises
in the spring, there will be no exercises at this time.
Helen Behler is a graduate of the
Kingston High School and maj ored
in commercial work at college. She
and her sister, An ita , have certainly
proved that it is possible for two sisters to get along together well. In
fact , they have been room mates for
three years which is quite a record
for any pair of roomies.
Leona Oakes has continued along
in her quiet way here at college,
since graduating from, the West Hazleton High School. In her student
teaching this year she has proved to
be most successful.
Whenever Sam Trepani' s name is
brought up, visions of second-hand
cars appear before one's eyes. Certainly Sam has the knack of putting
over deals which always result in
larger profits . Sam has participated
most prominently in all college activities since arriving here as a most
green Frosh from the Easton High
School.
Ted Manley has been probably the
busiest Senior of them all with his
many duties as President of C. G. A.
To all four members, the college
community extends its congratulations and extends the hope that the
memory of Bloomsburg will remain
with them always.

The Civili an Training Branch of
the San Antonio Air Service Command with headquarters at Kelly
Field , Texas , has requested the department of Business Education of
the Bloomsburg State Teachers Collage, to furnish the shorthand examinations for j udging student progress
in shorthand instruction.
In 1937 the department of Business Education prepared several examinations which were given to pros pective employees of the Unemploy ment Insurance Board of Review,
Department of Labor and Industry,
Harrisburg.
The examinations prepared by the
local institution are well known and
respected by those in the field of bustness education. Several states have
used the examinations in state contests and individual schools have
uspri them ns final examinations .

Superintendents were asked to estimate the number of anticipated vacancies that would occur within their
school districts prior to the opening
of the schools in September.
Ths colleges and universities were
asked to indicate the anticipated
number of available teachers in the
several classifications of instructional
services. The resulting figures proved
the anticipated demand to be decidedly larger than the anticipated supply.
These figures were not much more
than an estimate because Selective
Service, War production , and other
causes constantly increased the anticipated need and diminished the
anticipated supply.

The project , sponsored by the Governi ng Board , provides funds from
its profits which pay for minor repairs throughout the dormitory.
Merchandise of the store consists

Martha Duck, Treasurer of Waller
Hall , and Elvira Bitetti , a member
of ths Finance Committee, are manager and assistant manager respectively of the little Cash and Carry establishment.

The Business Ed. Club entertained
the faculty, Navy V-12 and civilian
students at chapel exercises on January 24, 1944.
The program consisted of two
plays. The first was entitled "We
Stenographers Three; " the second,
"The Army That Doesn 't Wear a
Uniform." The cast for "We Stenographers Three " included Louise
Schlegal , Eileen Falvey, Betty Lingle and Catherine Longo. Gloria
Belcastro, Shirley Williams, Mary
Schro eder , Gloria Gillis and Helen
Fehl participated in "The Army That
Doesn't Wear a Uniform."
Elsie Flail directed the program.

POPULAR BROADWAY HIT
"JUNIOR MISS" COMING
TO TEACHER COLLEGE
After much consideration, the
play-reading committee of the Dramatic Club, under the leadership of
Miss Johnston , has chosen for its
three-act play "Junior Miss" by Jerome Chodorov and Joseph Fields.
This choice promises to be very popular. "Junior Miss" has just recently
been released for amateur performance , after having play ed on Broadway for two years. The original cast
is still "on the road" playing the big
time theatre circuit.
A British cast is also doing the
original play in London, England.
Several of our boys in overseas service have written home to say they
have witnessed "Junior Miss" in
London. The boys remark the thing
tha t strikes them funniest is to hear
Britishers using American slang. A
London newspaper, "Sunday Dispatch," promises "Junior Miss" is a
"Ri ot of laughter . . ." and that's
putting it mildly.
The B. S. T. C. cast has been caretully selected. Ray Ashcom, Carl
Beehler and Harold Bush are the
principals, while Karliss Kight, Ruth
Fort n er , Mary Louise Fenstemafcer,
Betsy Smith and Lucille Martino
hold major roles. Rehearsals are now
in full swing. Don 't forget to reserve
Frid ay, February 18, to see "Junior
Miss ," the play that Broadway still
raves about.
needs of the schools. If a reasonable
balance of supply and demand is not
maintained , it will be impossible to
ward off a situation that ultimately
means lower salaries, lower standards
of teacher preparation , and the loss
of many of the fine features of the
tenure movement. Where teachers
are needed and the supply is not
av ail able , the emergency certificate
must, and will, provide relief .
Despite the obvious shortage of
qualified teachers that developed in
September , there is ample evidence
that school authorities and parents
are insisting that the professional
Jains in qualification of teachers shall
not b» surrendered in this emergency.

HUSKIES COP EIGHTH
WIN OF THE SEASON

sfcf gto iw^TW^f|

Leopard s Prove Weak Opponents Pitted Against the
H ome Team

B. S. T. C. Menaces Albright
For Top State Honors
Varsit y Five Looks Forward to WRESTLERS GROOME D
Contest With Buckn ell
FOR BUCKNELL MATCH
For Next Win
To date , the varsity has nine games
successfully under the belt with one
case of indigestion—Franklin and
Marshal 1. This shapes up to one of
the bust records in the state, topped
on ly by Alb r igh t, who licked F. &
M. by a two-point margin.
Fine Record
This fine record has been achieved
desp ite a high casualty list among
the first team. Jack Goefert couldn't
report for the Army Special Service
game on December 14. Slegeski had
ankle trouble that kept him out oi'
the home Susquehanna game. In the
New Cumberland game, "Red" Graham was benched for most of the
game with a banged-up knee. Dick
Bicrly has been hauled oft" the floor
wi th a nice head injury, and at t he
Susquehanna game , his knee went
a wry .
Pr oof of Tower
These , of course, are not excuses,
but proofs that it is not a one-man
combination and has been powerful
enough to take on all comers oven
when not at top strength .
Fans Cheer Team
The news of the team 's potency
has finall y caught the attention of the
localities. The turn-out at the Lafayette game was a sight that would accelerate the heart boat of many an
old alumnus. The rafters resounded
to the roars of the mighty assemblage.
Bucknell Host
This Saturday, the Bucknell Bisons
play host to the Huskies. Lewisburg
is j ust a hill or so away, so it presents a fine opportunity for the local
enth usiasts to see the College Hill
chicles in action in a "foreign " port,
This is the tightest battle the quintet has had to face. Win , lose or
draw , Bucknell will journey here on
February 9 to settle the score. By
this lime our power will have been
put to a mighty test , for the Muhlenburg fracas falls on February 5. The
Mules are undoubtedly one of the
better teams in the state. They
croamed the Bucknel l boys in their
last match.
Game on February 9
The Bucknell game on February 9
should draw a full house , if not an
overflow. This, will mark the final
home appearance of this memorable
combination.
An away game with Lafayette concludes the varsity season .

The wrestling match to be held
Saturday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock at
Bucknell shows promise of being the
hardest fought match Bloomsburg's
team will have this year. A completely reorganized team will be 'entered.
••
The 121 pound class finds a newcomer in wrestling circles, Ed Bollinger . who shows great promise in
this featherweight slot. The 128
pound class is still unfilled , but several good men are competing for the
position. The 136 pound division
features the veteran Mclntyre, who
won his match at F. and M. In practice Mclntyre seems to be in even
better form than prior to the F. and
M. meet. The 145 pound class is
represented by another veteran. In
this ca se, it is Letcher White , who
luis shown great improvement in the
past few weeks. A t 155 , there is Joe
F an ella , who was unable to participate in the F. and M . meet because
of an ankle injury . In this match
Fanella should be in fine shape and
come through with flying colors.
Ge z ich , a newcomer, will fill the 165
pounds slot. He is a smooth , shifty
wrestler who will undoubtedly put
up a great fight. The other two members of the .squad are well known
here in athletic circles. Gene StenLer is tentatively scheduled to go at
17,r> , while Don "Irish" O'Connor will
go as heavyweight. Coach Ray Dehler , heretofore 175 pounder , will be
unable to go on in his old position , as
ho is suffering from severely injured
ribs.

The team 's overall appearance indicates If« tit they 'll garner enough
points (black and blue) to bring
homo the proverbial hunk of pig.

The.Huskies turned in their eighth
win of the season last Saturday evening at the expense of a game but outclassed Lafayette Leopards. Even
the impressive 64-21 score does not
paint a true picture of the massacre
as the varsity saw less than two
quarters of actual duty .
There was no doubt as to the outcome of tiiis contest as the Huskies,
although not shooting true to form
in the first quarter , were repeatedly
penetrating the Lafayette defense, a
feat that Lafayette couldn 't match
and that j ust about tells the story .
Harness Leopards
The Maroon and Gold harnessed
the Leopards and then handed the
leash to the second string early in the
second quarter . It was expected that
Lafayette would go to work on the
Huskies' 11 poin t lead , but that was
n ot th e case for t he "p u ps " delivered
12 field goals and walked off the
floor at half- time with a 22 point advantage.
The varsity took command at the
beginning of the third quarter but
they weren 't in long enough to work
up a sweat. The Huskies put on a
display of shooting and passing that
bro u gh t t he "ahs " from the several
hundred spectators. The varsity, led
by Bierly and Vogelsong, repeatedly swished the net from all angles ,
collecting 22 points (one point more
than Lafayette accumulated in all
four periods ) the varsity left for the
showers and the replacements finished the game adding 14 more points
to the already lop-sided score .
Bierly High Scorer
Bierly with 14 points and Vogelsong with 10 scored enough tallies
between them to win the game.
Most of the fans were disappointed
as it was expected that Lafayette
would extend our Huskies—the only
thing Lafayette could extend was

After licking the New Cumberland
team in the Harrisburg U. S. O., the
vavsity turned and licked their plates
clean. The U. S. O. served them a
spaghetti dinner that was easier to
put away than the preceeding game.
Just before the Lafayette game, an
enthusiastic rooter explained the
team's record this way . With seven
wins and one loss, the Huskies can be
compared to the cowboy at R. & D.'s
vho drinks one "coke" down and
burped seven-up.
Notice how carefully the V-12's
handle their sweat-suits now? They
had to buy them.
Picture a sailor high above the
water , straddling a spar , and splicing a line intently . Battleship scene?
. . . Or perhaps aboard an old sailing
ship? Nope, just Chief "Cotton"
Franklin trying to get the cargo net
secured over the swimming pool.
No boys , you can't wear skirts to
gym class just because the girls wear
pants .
o
A pleasant companion causes you
to forget the length of the journey .

our winning streak.
Huskies at Bucknell
Saturday night the Huskies are at
Lewisburg where they will "shoot
it out" with their toughest opponent
to-date, the Bucknell Bisons. Bucknell is smarting over their 43-42 two
period overtime loss to Villanova but
that won 't make any difference if the
Huskies perform as they did in that
third quarter against Lafayette.

Open Smokin g Room
A smoking room for the dormitory
girls was opened this week on the
fourth floor of Waller Hall.
The room , equipped with colorful
furniture , is in charge of those girls
who use it. The room also has been
made as fire proof as possible so that
there is little danger of it becoming a
fire hazard. However , the girls who
use the room are asked to exercise
great care.
Girls who wish to have access to
the smoking room may file letters ol
permission in the Dean of Women 's
Office nt any time.
