Square Dance W as
Held at B. S. T. C.
Monday evening, February 4, at
7:30 o'clock , found the small gym of
the college crowded with students
anxiously awaiting the downbeat of
the Square Dance orchestra. For the
many new students , this was their
first college community gathering,
and B. S. T. C. was eagerly awaiting
their approval of the entertainment.
There were at least eight sets on
the floor for all the dances. Many
who had never square danced before
learned quickly by Mr. Deiterich's excellent instruction and were quite
amazed at the relative simplicity of
the dances after the fundamental
danees had been learned.
For variety, the orchestra offered
some slow fox trots , a polka and for
the hep cats whose energy never
seemed to give out , some faster
tunes .
The enthusiasm of the students
showed that the Square Dance could
and is becoming a popular entertainment at B. S. T. C.
At 10:30 everyone reluctantly left
the gym, tired but happy after an enj oyable evening.

There is an excellent opportunity
for anyone who plays an instrument
or who would like to learn to p lay
one to display his talents on the ' college campus . The college band and
orchestra are still in the process of
being formed and musically talented
people are needed by these two organi zations.
The band , under the direction of
Mr. Fenstemaker, is not planning any
p ublic appearances this semester because of the incomplete personnel ,
but it is laying the foundations for
n ex t fall' s work.
The instruments particularly needed are trumpets , trombones, saxophones, brass instruments and clarinets. There are two basses and one
cla rinet available at the college now.
Rehea rsals are held every Tuesdny
afternoon in Room 40 of Science Hall.

the Bloomsburg State Teachers College -is contacting, by letter, more
than seven hundred Bloomsburg students and grad uates who have served
in the Armed Forces to let them
know that they will receive first
priority for next Fall's enrollment.
President Andruss points out in his
letter to the veterans tha t all colleges
are receiving more applications for
enrollment than can be provided for
and that Bloomsburg does not wan!;
to l'efuse any former student the op portunity to continue his education.
Therefore, an effort is being made to
compile a list of veterans who plan
to return to the local college next
September. President Andr uss emphasized the fact that it will be necessary for veterans who plan to return to Bloomsburg to make early
reservation for housing accommodations as applications are being received from high school Seniors who
want to teach.

Did You Know That the Tower Clock
Was Paid For by Turkey Dinners?
To the students and to most of the faculty of today the clock on the
tower of Carver Hall is merely a convenient timepiece. To the old-timers,
however , it is a symbol of the cooperative spiri t that went into the laying
of the founda tions of the present Bloomsburg State Teachers College.
Money for this timepiece was raised within one week all through the
endeavor of the united college community . Teachers, studen ts, admi nistration and stail' all had a par t in the acquisition of this device which has now
become essential to life on the hill.
The clock was paid for through turkey dinners sold at the Bloomsburg fairgrounds just af ter the turn of the century. The stand was. operated by students and staff of . the college. The turkeys were roasted at
the college and then taken to the stand. Teachers and students waited on
the tables.
The idea origina ted with William Housel , who , many will say, "was
responsible for the whole thing." Mr . Housel for fifteen years was steward
at the college and was a progressive force on the campus throughout that
time . He suggested the acquisition of a clock and followed it up with the
idea of the turkey dinner stand to be operated in the fall of 1901 , during
*
the principalship of Dr. J. P. Welsh.
The proj ect "went over big," although it was the first and probably
the last time the college ever conducted a dinner stand at the fairgrounds.
The year happened to be a good one and the weather was excellent. The college served "all they could feed" and earned enough to pay for the clock,
which cost in the neighborhood of five hundred dollars or more. It was
purchased in 1902, the first outdoor clock owned by the college. Mr. W. B.
SutlifT , who later became Dean of Education , wrote an article for the
Mor ning Press so that fuir^goers would know what the aim of the College
dinners was.
The clock is attached to the bell, which was purchased through subscription in 1867. The bell can be rung separately but marks the hours by
the use of a hammer attachment to the clock.
Before the clock was purchased , the bell was rung by the jani tor every
morning at chapel time, which was then 8:30 in the morning. It was also
rung for the one o'clock class in the afternoon . In former days it was the
responsibili ty of the faculty to waken the students by marching through
the dorm's halls ringing an old hand bell.
Forty-four years old , the clock has proved of benefit not only to the
students hurrying to and from classes but also to town residents who use .
it to set their watches. To these of you who haven 't noticed that the fourtli
face of the clock is in an unusual position—stop and look the nex t time you
pass and remember that the proceeds of turkey dinners pu t it there.

the contest was ending and gave West
Chester State Teachers College a 4544 victory over Bloomsburg State
Teach ers College Huskies in a thriller at the Centennial gymnasium at
B. S. T. C. on Saturday evening, February 2, in the first game of a fast
twin bill.
The skirmish was close all the way
with the lead changing numerous
times and ,with neither club able to
build up a lead of more than 4 points.
The score was tied at 42 all with
two minutes to play. Then Dave
Kirk , West Chester center, made two
foul shots and Lew Reynolds, guard ,
one to give West Chester a 45 to 42
lead.
With only seconds of play remaining Nelms faded to the back court
with the ball and there Johnny
Hmelnicky, of Exet er, stole It and
went down to register his tenth field
goal. Before there was any more
scoring the game concluded.
Tlie fans were a little long in
warming up but the last period was
Fjlayed with the crowd in an uproar
much of the time . Bloomsburg was
in front 38 to 34 as the last period
opened but during those concluding
ten minutes the Huskies lost three
of their starting quintet, Blackburn ,
Scarcelia and Flaherty, who were
ejected on personal fouls.
West Chester, with Kirk the only
boy remaining from the team that
repiesented the college through the
first half , presented a rangy team.
The boys controlled eighty per cent
of the rebounds and shot from well
out on the court , depending on their
height advantage to keep them in
possession of the ball. Quay and
Fredricksen were taking the rebounds
with regularity. Pat Flaherty, local
boy on the Husky five, did a fine j ob
on the floor for Bloomsburg.
Hmelnicky was the high scorer of
the evening with 24 points. He was
most effective in the second half.
The game was brilliant at times and
decidedly on the high school variety
at others, with athletes of both teams
repeatedly on the floor , particularly
in the concluding quarter when there
were many mad scrambles for possession of the ball.

ing in top form all the way, defeatectW
the Cumberland Valley Teachers College, of Shippensburg, a leading challenger for state honors, 57 "to 45 at
Shippensburg Wednesday night, February 6.
By triumphing, the charges of
Coach George C. Buchheit avenged a
52 to 45 reverse sustained here earlier at the hands of the Red and Blue.
The Huskies played without the
services of Pat Flaherty, varsity center . The local lad h as been ill.
Glen "Red" Loveland started at
center and Jack Lenhart, a local G.
I. student on the hill , also did a fine
job in that position through much
of the contest.
The Huskies had the scoring punch ,
racking up 23 field goals to 15 for the
Cumberland Valley boys.
Trailing at the end of the first period, 13 t o 11, Bloomsburg started
functioning in the second ten minutes to outscore their opponents 15
to 4 and build a lead of 26 to 17 at
half time.
Shippensburg came back in a high scoring and thrilling second half to
move once within two points of the
Huskies but the Bloomsburg collegians never surrendered the lead.
John Hmelnicky carried off scoring honors of the night with 22 points
and Jay Scarcelia, the guard from
Hazleton , racked up 16. .
Two Huskies v/ent out on personals, Loveland being ejected with three
minutes to go and Scarcelia calling it
an evening with 40 seconds of play
remaining. Gordon , of Shippensburg,
also went out on personals just as
time was running out.

Opportunities For
Women in Chemistry
Opportunities for women in chemistry are numorous and excellent ,
* says Dr. Kenneth A. Kobe , pr ofessor
of chemical engineering, who is in
charge of employment services for
the University of Texas branch of
the American Chemical Society .
?/ Requests from the petvoleum industry , in particular , substantiate his
statement, for in this field women are
employed as technical assistants, doing analytical and research work . Dr.
Kobe reported that a recent regional
m eet i n g of t he Socie t y, 24 women
were interviewed by prospective employers.
There are also opportunities for
women as chemical technicians, laboratory workers, stenographers and
scientific writers.
Bio che m i str y is especially su itable
for women, Miss Beverly Marie Guirard , research associate in the Unive r si ty 's Biochemical Institute , believes, for women are particularly interested in the chemistry of life .
"Women have a fairly equal opportunity with men for both high position and good salary in biochemistry," Miss Guirartl said. "Ordinarily
in industry , t he high er t h e posi t io n
the more frequently a man is selected , even though the qualifications for
men and women applicants are exactly- the same, but in biochemistry
there is no such discrimination. "
The number of women majoring in
chemistry has quadrupled in the past
ten years. Miss Guirard believes
that the teaching of science in element a ry gr ades i n p u blic schools has
been one of the reasons for more interest in chemistry and other sciences. Formerly a student found his
first study of science when lie reached
high school; n ow begi nn i n g w i t h t h e

along with other regular ;subjects. —
