Increased Enrol lment
Ah increase in enrollment of . between fifty and seventy-five new
students at the beginning of the second semester, January 23, is indicated, at Bloomsburg State Teachers
College, if the applications received
by Dr. T. P. North, Dean of Instruction, are any criteria. Applications
for enrollment are being received at
the rate of one or two per day and
are mostly from service men with
some applications from mid-year
high school graduates. The service
men who are going to school are
doing so under the provisions of the
G. I. Bill which provides an educational opportunity with federal government "subsidy. Tlie service" men
returning to the Bloomsburg State
Teachers College include former students returning to complete work begun before entering the service and
a large number of new entrants.
Many of the returning service men
are interested in the possibility of
taking some flight training in conj unction with their college courses at
the Bloomsburg State Teachers Collp erp

Commissioner Wright, Head of the
Civil Aeronautics for the United
States , recently announced a proposed civilian avia tion program sponsored by the government which
.would begin the training of some
10 ,000 pilots this Spring. The program would be carried on by the federal government through colleges
that had had aviation training programs and the actual flight work will
be done- in conjunction with local
airports.
The new program will be a modified version of the pre-war Civilian
Pilot Training set-up in which the
local college successfully participated. Men attending college under the
G. I. Bill will be eligible to take the
aviation training as well as the regular civilian undergraduates. The
p rogram will be open to girls as well
as men and will include a limited
percentage of non-college students.
Housing is going to be the limiting
factor for future enrollments. However, everything possible will be done
to secure accommodations for students. Qualified persons should enter college now. Those not qualified
should make preliminary arrangements for enrollment next fall , immediately.

Hmelnicky, of Exeter, the Bloomsburg College Huskies came through
w ith a dec isive 4 7 to 2 6 v ictory over
Lock Haven Teachers in the Centennial Gymnasium here Saturday
evening.
Lock Haven , which featured some
fast fives prior to the war, ex pects
to get added strength to its quintet at
the start of the second semester.
At the present it is definitely undermanned and at no time during the
evening was it able to keep up with
the Huskies of Coach George C.
Buchheit . '
Errati c at times, t h e Hu sk ies, nevert h eless, were in front from the
start. At times when they seemed in
danger of lapsing into a faulty brand
of basketball, Hmelnicky , the only
h old over f rom last W inter , came
through with a couple of baskets to
pvovids a stabilizing influence on his
mates. ¦
The Huskies had a lot of drive
through the greater part of the first
half . Along in the fourth period
Buchheit sent in replacements and
they came through with a type of
mad dashing basketbalL which was
quite entertaining.
The Bald Eagles featured a one
armed stai' , Ltewis Schaub, of Coudersport. He played through the contest and didn't uncork a bad pass all
evening. Schaub, as most of his
teammates, were shooting short but
he did come through, during the last
half , with a beautiful side shot.
The Huskies will entertain Shippensburg Teachers here next Saturday evening.

With New dear 's Day bringing an end to another gridiron season, sportsminded America focused its attention on its favorite pastime, basketball, and
found itself sitting in on one of the keenest fights for National Honors in the
cour t games history. A glance at the early season records shows many first
class contenders swinging along in a topsy turvey race from whicli any one
num ber of teams may emerge victorious.
In tlie Midwest such teams as Ohio State, Purd ue and Michigan are
coming along fine. With teams such as those, the National Honors will almost necessarily go to the team that takes the Big Nine title.
In the Midwest such teams as Notre Dame, De Paul and Valparaiso have
env iable records throughout the year .
In the East it is difficult to pick out an outstanding contender for top
honors.
Temple, one of the teams rated highly for National Champs, suffered
two def eats, one by Tennessee and the other by Penn State, in a game which
will be marked as the greatest upset of the year . Army and St. Johns are
also contenders for this year.
In the Southwest, w ithout doubt , the Oklahoma A. & M. team, with its
6 ft., 10 inch center, Bob Kurland , are playing with an undefeated record
and from the looks of things, they should not be counted out.
This is a loose check of the national picture, the season is still young, but
the mighty have a2ready made themselves known . Other quintets may rise
as the season progresses , but f rom h ere we'd say it was a good bet that the
National Champion will be picked from this list.

Jayvees were defeated by a well balanced Haz l eton team , 34 to 28, in the

Fightin g Husk y Five"
Bow to Shippens burg
Fouls Committed by Huskies Deciding: Factor; Final Score Was
52-45
¦ In a hard fought contest , the Husky
quintet bowed to a strong Shippensburg aggregation Saturday night. Although the Huskies out-played th|£&
"Shippers," they couldn't stop their '
long range shooting which was very
effective. Then, too , the "Shippers '"
accurate foul shooting was good insurance f os victory.
Ships Open Scoring
Shippensburg opened the scoring,
but some fancy shooting and passing
by the Huskies held them in check
by staying ahead at the end of the
first stanza. The second quarter
opened with Ships scoring again.
Goals by Hmelnicky and Scarcella
kept the situation well in hand until
No. 4 broke loose with enough field
goals to tie the count. Seconds before the half ended No. 4 dumped
one in from mid-court to leave the
Huskies trailing by two points.
In the third quarter the fine f loor
work by the Huskies was not strong
enough to penetrate through the
"Shippers ' " zone defense. However,
push up shots from far out by Scarcella kept Bloom in the count. But
at the close of this period the Huskies
were trailing by three points.
A hectic fourth quarter kept the
fans screaming. Hook shots by No. 5
were the main featui-e of this period.
Hmelnicky's fifty personal foul was
committed in this period and in rapid
succession Scarcella and Flaherty
were evicted from the game on their
personal fouls. At t his stage of the
game, Shippensburg djd a fine job of
freezing the ball to take advantage of
their small lead and with the sound
of the final whistle, the Bloom boys
were on the tail end of a 45-52 score.

WEEP NO M ORE , MY COED
Here's good news. College women
needn't turn grey any move at the
prospect of being old maids.
A survey made by the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company proves
that the smarter a woman becomes
the more likely are her chances to
make a so-called "good match."
The study shows both men and
women nro Ukoly to chooso mates

with schooling similar to their own.
Almost half tho college men interviewed had married college women,
and only one in sixteen had married
a woman whose educntlon .had
stopped with grade school,
Tho fair sex did even better. More
than half stated that they had ¦married college men ,

Rickenbacker to be
Host on Radio Series
of Air Histor y
In order to meet and stimulate the
wide and steadily growing interest
in all fields and all levels of education in aeronautics—as well as in restated subjects that deal with the so¦tf&jptl and economic importance of
global air progress—Captain Eddie
Rickenbacker is participating in the
making of a series of 13 radio ,plays
that provide supplementary instruction on the history of American aviation through the lives and accomplishments of the men and women
who made that history .
Starting during the week of February 2nd , 194 6, over a selected network of more than 150 stations that
blanket the United States and Canada from coast to coast, Captain
Rickenbacker will appear as host and
historian on the Worlds Most Honored Flights. The plays are written
by Col. Hans Christian Adamson, who
created" and, for many years, wrote
the "New Horizons" scripts of CBS
School of the Air. Lester Vail , whose
radio productions include "The March
of Time," is the director. The series
is sponsored by the Longines-Wittnauer Watch Company as a public
service contribution in the field of
educational entertainment. At the request of Captain Rickenbacker, Longines pays the fee he would ordinarily receive to the AAF Aid Society
to swell the fund for needy AAF
widows and orphans , as well as to
aid AAF men and women disabled
in line of duty.
For program listing, consult the
radio timetable of your local newspaper starting the week of February

Kaufbeuren, Germany ,
December 9, 1945 .
Dear Miss Ranson,
I've finally settled down again, this
time in Germany. I hope my next
exodus will be towards home. Have
spent quite a bit of time at St. Valery, Dieppe, Paris and Chateau Thierry before coming here. This base
by far is the finest camp I've ever
been stationed at. It formerly had
been a Luftwaffe field.
KauCbeuren is -a small town at the
foothills of the Bavarian Alps; the
camp itself looks more like a college
nestled in the Alps rather than a military post. The buildings are all built
of stone, have steam heat, tile showers, three men to a room—the German Army sure lived in style. This
is so much better than the cold tents
and mud of France.
We have nocturnal snowfalls just
as regular as clockwork , which makes
skiing conditions ideal. Already I've
logged quite a number of hours.
While I was in France, I surprised
myself by learning the language in a
relatively short time . I was talking
like an old native. German doesn't
seem too difficult; already I'm beginning to mutter coherent phrases.
However, the fact that I can speak
Polish quite fluently gets me by, as
it seems most Europeans speak several languages, and Polish being one
of them.
You should see Germany. It's a
sad sight. I've passed th rough several towns and industrial cities that
were completely demolished, not a
building standing for as far as the
eye could see, just a few churches
w.h ich stood up among the rubble
Jike so many sore thumbs.
The people here at Kaufbeuren
are very fortunate as their town was
left intact.
The mountains here are very pretty. If you've ever seen any of the
pictures of Switzerland , then you
might know what I inean as we are
quite near the Swiss border.
No doubt a number of the old gang
have returned to school. I hope so.
As for me, I'm hoping that I'll be
able to enroll in next September 's
class.
Sincerely,
Clem Novak,

j
