Once described by Francis B.
Haas as "a familiar, landmark
to the oldest alumnus," Cafryer
Hall has stood upon the hill as a
permanent legacy to the history
of Blobmsburg. State College.
The birth of BSC as an
educational institution began in
the 1860's when educator Henry
Carver of Bihghamton, New
York, Was chosen to head the
school, then known as
Bloomsburg Literary Institute.
Carver got underway immediately. Funds were raised
for the construction of a
building for "the development
of an adequate and larger
school." On June 29, 1866, the
Board of Trustees of Bloomsburg Literary Institute passed
Carver?s proposal for the
building which would accommodate 300 persons and
would not exceed $15,000.00 in
cost. The building would be
known as Institute Hall, later to
be labeled as Carver.
Following the, acceptance of
Henry Carver 's plans, the
location of a site to erect
Institute Hall became a major
^public issue. Several areaswere
under consideration including a
site near the fairgrounds, but
none suited Carver as well as a
site proposed by William and
Alice Snyder who offered a
location above the Forks Hotel

in line with the extension of
Main Street. The hotel would
have to be removed in order to
extend the street to the front of
the building on the hill.
There were several objections
to this site such as the present
surroundings that included a
livery stable, a tannery, and a
tavern. The . location was accepted, though, and Carver took
his plans to Washington to
consult an architect. Plans were
adopted July 13, 1866, but
trouble arose concerning the
hiring of a competent architect
to do the job. Henry Carver
finally took on the supervision
of the entire project himself and
did some of the actual construction work on Institute Hall.
Institute Hall was completed
and then dedicated on March 30
of the following year in a festive
ceremony including a band-led
procession from the school's
Academy to Institute Hall attended by the clergy of the
town , the trustees, and Judge
Elwell.
When Carver Hall was known
as Institute Hall, it originally
had two stories with three
porches. Heated by a basement
furnace, the building also" had a
tall, brick chimney at the rear.
The existing balcony and clock
tower were later additions.
Over the years outside fire
escapes became required^ by

law and Carver Hall was two or three times also. The
altered accordingly/ Later - total cost of the building and of
these escapes were replaced by
the furnishings of Institute Hall
three modern fire escape
was $24,000.00.

The BSC Nursing Department
must go through two accreditations, according to Dr.
Pierce, senior faculty member.
They must be examined by the
Department of Education and
the State Board of Nurse
Examiners. "" , .' "
The
Department
of
Education, which is responsible
for all programs in higher
education , has already approved the Nursing program.
The State Board of Nursing,
which controls licensing, has
approved the nursing program
alsot but it must revisit the
department after the firs t class
has graduated to give initial
approval, Pierce said. • ' . ; ¦ ;
The National Accreditation
must give their approval also,
but this cannot be given until
after the first class graduates.
Both Dr. Flynn , chairperson
of the Department, and Pierce,

country with PhDs, are confident the program

Later Pierce came, with the
belief that state schools could
fill a large gap because diploma
schools were closing.
With
their
similar
philosophies, Pierce and Flynn
believed they could establish a
new program, Flynn said.
PROGRAM APPROVED
"On March 13, 1974 Dr. Pierce
and I went to State Boards to
present our program, and it was
approved,,\ Flynn said. They
accepted 72 students.
Problems arose when Pierce
and Flynn came up for tenure.
For the first two years after
approval they did not teach, but
were preparing for s their first
class, so they didn't have any
student evaluations until their
third year.
Tenure is granted after three
years teaching, and if it is
denied the faculty member is
terminated the fourth year,
Student evaluations are used to
determine
whether
the
professor will receive tenure.

mendations to President
McCbrmick on the basis of
documents they receive on
professors. Oliver Larmi,
chairperson of the committee,
stated that Pierce did not have
good student evaluations and on
this basis they could not
recommend her for tenure.

for academic affairs meets with

"The Deans, vice-president

Williams said that both he and
Larmi believe it should be the

they are worthy of tenure:
Flynn and Pierce also found it
unusual that they did not have a
chance to talk with the committee.
Many people may agree with
this philosophy, Williams said,
but they don't th|jpk it will hold
up legally. Williams would like
to see this tested.

meat cooked. It was one way the
early settlers knew to keep their
children out of trouble.
Included in that year's menu
was wild turkey, deer meat,
geese, ducks, fish, and many
varieties of corn meal breads
and cakes. We have carried on
this eating tradition but back in
those days, all the settlers in the
colony ate together outdoors on
big long tables. It was one big
dinner. Just imagine an entire
area of Pennsylvania having
dinner together!
The date for Thanksgiving
was toyed with for many years
but in 1939, President Roosevelt
set the fourth Thursday of
November as the date for the
observance of Thanksgiving as
a national legal holiday. Since
that time Thanksgiving has
been one of America's most
loved holidays, especially for
those who love to eat.
Thanksgiving is also celebrated
in Canada and follows the same
type festivities as theUnited
States.
One very unique item which
has been added to the
Thanksgiving weekend is
football. Only in America could

Thanksgiving described in a
few words means family,
friends, food, football, and the
time to give thanks for all, of
life's blessings. No matter how
you celebrate the holiday,
turkey, family, or football , it is
still one of the few; . holidays
observed today with a definite
historical
and
religious
background.
The "first" Thanksgiving,
and there are many cited as the
first, occurred in America in
1621. It was decreed by the
Governor of Massachusetts ,
William Bradford , as a time for
prayer , celebration , and
feasting. A
three day
celebration took place*that year
which included the Indians as
part of the festivities.
Thanksgiving in that year
was the day to thank God for the
bountiful harvest since before
1621 crops were not doing well
Naturally, in those days there
were.no radar ranges or gas and
electric stoves. The women
cooked on spits over open fires
leaving the children the- task of
turning the spits to help get the

we have a holiday that provides
pleasure to everyone in the
family. For instance, for those
who like to eat there's plenty of
food, for those with religious
affiliation there are church
services, and for those, who
have football fever there are an
abundace of games to Watch.
In addition , for those people
who love a parade there are also
many parades to attend or
watch on television.
Lastly, Thanksgiving is the
kick-off for the Christmas
shopping boom. Santa Claus
even comes to many shopping
centers and begins his first day
of haying children sit on his lap.
Yes, Thanksgiving is one of
the few holidays whose
historical roots are still considered, but as every other
holiday there have been many
modifications and additions to
the festivities in order to make
"everyone" happy.
This year as you go home or to
relatives remember not only to
enjoy football, parades, family ,
and food, but remember to give
thanks for all of life's many
blessings
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!

WOULD YOU BELIEVE...where this building stands was a
baseball diamond? For more information of BSC's history
see today's Thanksgiving issue of the Voice. (Photo by Mark Work)

A diamond hall

In the year 1906 the administration felt the need for an additional
building; for classrooms. Originally, Science Hall was constructed
mainly for Art Studies and the Music Department. It contained laboratories, classrooms, lecture rooms for chemistry , physics and
natural sciences.
The next time you are sitting in a history class in Old Science Hall
put yourself back into the year 1894. Then, instead of bringing your
books you would be carrying your baseball glove and bat. The plot
of ground in which that building was constructed oh was -the original
athletic field for Bloomsburg State College. That particular section
~
of land was the baseball diamond.
Today Science Hall is known lovingly as Old Science Hall. It houses
both the departments of History and Psychology plus some facilities
for the Art Department.
So the next time you look out the window during some thrilling
lecture, just imagine hitting a grand slam.

Everyone knows where it is, but
do you know how it acquired its

According .to college Archive
documents and official records,
the U.S. Navy 's V-12 program
once was temporarily housed on

now is Navy Hall, students
studied navigation and other
facets of aviation training.
Military and civilian students

the rigorous flight program,
were graduated as Navy ensigns.
During the World War IL
years, the government set up
similar
V-12
programs
throughout the Continental
United Sta tes. NAC cadets were
given practical flight instruction at the site of the
Bloomsburg Municipal Airport.
"The Navy came here to train
officers, pilots and navigators ,
not teachers. Few people

at the same period ," Watts said.

disappointment

To the Editor :
Ms, Paskey, in her November
15 coverage of 'Clean-up-Day, V
indicated tha t the project was a
"a great disappointment. "
"Lack of student and faculty
support", she went on to say,
"provided a poor turn-out of
volunteers '' .
,1'belieVe.Md.< Paskey left the

area too soon because following
her departure, several , more
than the two students, the two
faculty
members ,
and
faculty wife, she mentioned,
showed up to participate in a
concerted effort to bring
cleanliness where there was
dust, dirt , and debris. In additon
to the ones mentioned were two
other faculty members, several
administrators and a number of
campus maintenance men.
True, we could have had the
active participation of more
students and faculty. But what
we lacked in numbers was more
than made up by the quality of
volunteers. Each participant
worked with a will, as if the
campus and its appea rance
really meant a great deal to him
or her.
I would hope that other afternoons be set aside, from time
to
time ,
for
campus
beautification. In an age in
which so many are given to
doing "their own thing " without
regard , for others , it is
redeeming
to see administrators , ground crew
members, students and faculty,
put aside consiciousness of
position or rank and work
together toward a common end.

The War training and' civil
pilot training programs,
necessitated the conversion of
facilities. Women 's dormitory
space was expropriated for use
by nieiji enrolled in V-12
training. Dining rooms,
cafeteria and laboratory space
wero expanded to accomodate
increased math and science
requirements. This expansion
was done at an expenditure "of
over $200,000. V- The college
benifited directly from "an
income arrangement", getting
paid from the N^vy for
borrowing college facilities. ; :
All told, 1,160 persons served
in Bloomsburg's war programs.

Andruss writes in "War and
Cooperative Programs (194145)," that "This record had not
been equalled by any college of
similar size in the country in the
number and variety of the
programs or in the total
enrollment." The V-12 program
was terminated October, 1945.
"Teacher education was
never : lost as a goal of the
college during the war years,"
Watts added. ', Several innovations grew but of the
college's wartime experiences.

Women cagers ready for season

Veteran players, seven of
them seniors, will lead the
women 's varsity basketball
team during what coach Sue
Hibbs describes as a "very
tough season."
The first game will be on
December 5 against Marywood
College. After that, the schedule
gets progressively harder. The
team is scheduled to paly 16
games, against what Hibbs
described as fine teams . Over
half of the Huskies' opponents
qualified for postseason
tournament competition last
year.
The women have been
practicing for weeks in
preparation for the season, and
will return a week early from
Christmas vacation to tone up
their skills before facing the
major bulk of their games.
This is the first year we'll be
coming back early to practice,"
said
Hibbs.
"Christmas
vacation always dulled our

performance as a team, no
matter how hard we worked
when we got back. The first
game in January was always
disastrous whether we won or
lost. This year should be different," said Hibbs.
,
This is the second year that
the women will play their
games in Nelson Fieldhouse.
Before that, their games were
held in Centennial Gym. "We
have a few players that can
really entertain the crowd with
behind the back passes, dribbling between their legs, and
other clever moves, in addition
to the excitement of the game
itself ," said Hibbs.
Captains for this year's team
are Terry Kulick ,_ Sue
McKeegan, and Jayne Yurasits.
"We don't have as much depth
as we had last yearf Seven
freshmen are on the teTam this
year, with one on the varsity
squad." said Hibbs. Captains of
the junior varsity team are

Leslie Kulic and Carol Cruan,
The team can apparently look
forward to a challenging
season, and a long one. The
competition will begin on
December 5, and the regular
season will end on February 22.
Post season competition could
add an additional few weeks to
"
the schedule.
"We've been building up our
schedule, adding around two
games a season. This year
Indiana University of Pa. and
Lock Haven are the new additions," said Hibbs.
Coach Hibbs said, taking the
tough competition into consideration, if the women have a
winning season, it will be a good
show on their part. :
Taking into consideration the
strong performance of the
women in past seasons, that
might be an understatement.
BSC will be anxious to see if
she's right.

Eachus : He's run a long way

By Eleanor Hatch
His running career began in a
rather unfashionable way. "I
wore high-top basketball
sneakers and an old pair of
jeans -1 didn't want anyone to
see how skinny my legs were,"
said Ail-American Steve
Eachus, with a wry smile.
The track outfits that Eachus
wears haven't improved much
in quality, but the runner
wearing them has improved
immensely.
He has been named AllAmerican three times, once in
track and twice in cross
country, in addition to winning a
number of regional, state and
local honors.

CAUGHT STANDING STILL
... FOR ONCE Stoxro Eachus,
now in post season competition , broke several
records and was unbeaten
In duel compotton, during the regular cross country
season. (Ph°*° by Mark Warfe)

When he began his harrier
career, he thought of competition and titles weren't the
motivating factor. Eachus, now
a senior at Bloomsburg State
College remembers: "I was a
junior in high school when I
realized that I wasn't doing
much with my time besides
partying with my friends. I
decided to do something that
would be good for myself , so I
started to run. "
Eachus ran a mile and a half
each day, on his own, until the
cross country coaches from his
school, Henderson High in West
Chester, invited him to join the
team. "I was only on the team
for three weeks before the first
race. I enjoyed competing, but I
had to go to the bathroom right
from the start of the race:
barely made it across the finish
line., Hardly an jmpress ^ve
beginning!"
Despite
painful ' knee
problems that made running
painful, Eachus continued to
run eight to ten miles daily. He
improved steadily, and set an
indoor school record in his
senior year with a 10:4 time in
the two mile run. "That was a
big boost to my morale, but my
goal was to get under ten
minutes," he commented.
That came soon after, at the
Ches-Mont Championships. Two
of his competitors had already
gone under ten minutes, and
were picked to win easily.
"They were confident, talking
to each other during the race,
trying to psych me out. Half
way through the race, it dawned
on me that I could have been
running faster. " So he did,
winning the race by 40 yards,
achieving his goal With a time of

9:41:6.

A poor showing at district
competition ended his high
school running career, and, as
far as Eachus was concerned,
his competitive career as well.
"I was planning to continue
running as a hobby, but that
\yas it." / However; his coach

encouraged him to look into
college, and he did.
Eachus started college in
January . It didn 't take long for
him to establish himself as an
asset to the team. In his second
performance as a BSC Huskie,
Eachus ran a 9:27:0 in the two
mile run , setting a new school
record.
A hip injury kept him from
competing in the spring season,
but over the summer 15 miles a
day, speed work and a few
books on the subject of running
prepared him for the fall
season.
In the next year, Eachus
continued to better his times,
"My workouts were the same,
but I was learning to control and
pace myself better. "
As be became a tougher
runner , the caliber of the
competition he faced also got
tougher. However , Eachus
managed to run to the occasion.
He placed fifth in the five mile
run at State Championships,
and then flew to South West
Missouri University the next
weekend to compete in the
10,000 meter race at National
Championships.
Eachus recalled that race
with a smile. "It was my first,
experience with competition
against so many good runners
at once, and it was a crowded
field. I was running fairly well,
when someone stepped on my
foot and pried the back of my
shoe off. I couldn't decide
whether to try to pull it on, or to
take off my glove and untie the
lace and put it on right.
Other weekends have been
equally challenging for the

runner. Eachus flew to Chicago
in November to compete in
Division Two Nationals ,
finished third in that race, and
followed it up by competing in
the Division I Championships
held in the State of Washington.
The next weekend he finished
43rd in an international field of
255 runners.
Despite the impressive list of
accomplishments that are too
numerous to mention, Eachus
remains down to earth about his
abilityv "There was never much
of a fuss made on the team, at
home, or with my peers - so that
keeps my ego in its proper
place. Everyone has something
that they do well - I was just
fortunate that my hobby has
given me the chance to travel
and compete in different
places."
"I'm not obsessed with
running - it's just become a
habit. Something like brushing
your teeth - after you do it for a
number of years, it's just
something you do in the morning after you get out of bed."
When questioned about the
chances of seeing him in the
1980 Olympics, Eachus states
that they're too far away to be a
part of his plans. "I hope to be
raising a family by then," he
grinned.
And about his legs? "People
still laugh about how skinny
they are, but I reply "ya can't
beat 'em!"
At press time, Eachus is in
Madison, Wisconsin preparing
to compete in the Division I
Nationals/ after a very successful '78 season:
