I Charles Latterner Presents Tenor
Recital at Thanksgiving Assembly
Talented Vocalist Gives
Variety of Selections
Miss Ruth Von Bergen, chairman
of the student assembly committee,
open ed the special Thanksgiving program on the morning of November
23 with a scripture reading. Mr. E.
A. Reams tnen introdu ced the vocal
artist who provided the entertainment of the morning.
Mr. Charles Latterner , a tenor
soloist and native of Syracuse, New
York , h as res u m ed his studi es in a
career as a professional singer in and
about New York City. He recently
completed five ye ars in the Armed
Forces. The vocalist is a graduate of
Gettysburg College and has received
his M.A. from Columbia University.
His accompanist, Mr. Robert Sheffer,
is a native of Watsontown and a
veteran of twenty years musical experience.
A variety of selections was presented. As his opening number, Mr.
Latterner sang Purcell's, "I Attempt
f rom Love's Sickness to Fly." Following this was a lover's song to his
maid, "Passing By." Closing the first
group was an old Scottish ballad ,
"Lord Randall. "
"Gor Lovely Rose" w a s contrasted
in the second group of selections by a
light and frivolous , "The Bold, Unbiddable Child." "Homing," by Teresa
Del Riego , the third of this group,
was familiar to most of the audience.
Less well known were the next
three offerings. "Who Knows" was
followed by a plaintive plea, "Do Not
Go , My Love," and a lament, "O,
That It Were So."
Programmed as the opening number of the final group was Firestone's
"If I Could Tell You." The short and
sentiment al "When I Have Sung My
Songs " provided another contrast to
the rapid and rollicking "The Sleigh"
which followed. The well-known and
well-loved "Because," by Guy d'Hardelot, closed the program. In response
to the insistent applause, Mr. Latterner responded with "My Little
Banj o " as an encore.

* Modern Renaissanc e . . . .
Looking toward the future, we envision a world teeming with
opportunities and ideas for the advancement of the human race in
science, industry, literature, medicine, and the arts.
Whether we like it or not , we Americans are destined to play a
major role in this modern renaissance. American ingenuity and
perseverance will mstill the world with 'a vitality that will evoke an
eruption of human ambitions toward an ultimate goal of cultural and
economic stability.
The present atomic age offers a million and one opportunities for
intelli gent men to utilize their abilities in those fields to which they
have dedicated their lives — whether it be the laboratory, the classroom , or the farm. It will be up to us as individuals to' make each
particular task or undertaking as educational as possible. Great accomplishments are sometimes performed by groups or classes, but
more often by individual people. If possible, we should ad/vanes ourselves through a formal education or personal experience. To be
content with what we now understand indicates a tendency to lose
our foresight and preparedness.
By showing students the necessity of planning for the future , our
colleges and universities are preparing men to face their duties and
obligations in the world of tomorrow with confidence.
David Lilienthal once said , " . . . an informed and understanding
people will not be taken in by sweet talk , or scared by shadows, or
stumble, or be pushed, into some desperate finality. "
The decisions of this country rest with the people — ALL the
people.

The Coming Winter . . . .
A destructive winter has come to the world. The breezeu of yesterday have become powerful winds. They are creeping through the
world — numbing minds , killing kindness, love, and freedom. They
bring fear and hate and uncertainty. Their worst enemy is warmth ,
and the enemy is weak. The warm-hearted peoples of democr a cy are
not united; and 'Where there is no unity, there is no strength. So the
winds blow on.
In the world are several leaders who believe that their ideas may
be able to relieve us from the winds of oppression. They speak of
world un ity through World Federation. Their belief may foster a
better and happier, universe than one could imagine. On the other
hand , if their ideas do not bring benef ici al resul t s, the y can h ardl y
make world conditions any worse than they are now.
Many times we have planted seeds of democracy: and , a s many
times , t he ir blossoms have been k illed by t he destruct ive wi nds of
oppression. None of our protective methods have been very successful. But it is never too late to begin again. We can plant our seeds
once more and use the unity of World Federation as a new protection .
If it is not successful , we must find a better means.
Even those who are opposed to World Federation admit that they
have no solution to offer in its stead. Instead of wasting valuable time ,

The B.S.T.C. Railroad began operation at Christmas - tide, 1940, when
some North Hall men bought a small
train and tracks which they set up in
Waller Kail Lobby . Among these promoters of the railroad were Walter
Reed, John Lavelle, Grant Brittingham, Thurwald Gommer, Jacob Kot ch ,
and Howard Tonnlinson. They soon
decided that they wanted a bigger
and better outfit , so they issued a
prospectus and sold stock for that
purpose. Forty-five subscribed and
received capital stock.
Since that time the railroad , under
the direction and supervision of Dr.
Kehr, was operated by the students
each Christmas. During the war, the
Navy men in training here helped
with the operation. The first group,
t h e AVP' s, who were commissioned
officers preparing to be flight instructors, were inclined to be skeptical
about college students playing with
an electric train. In fact, they bought
quite an amount of track and equipment. Then V-5's, aviation cadets,
also liked the railroad. One Christmas they had only a day off and the
train provided them with some Christ-

Instructor in Business Education
from the "UBEA Forum"
1
by Clayton H, Hinkel
When I was graduated from high
school i n 1931, although I had had
adequate training according to the
standards of that day, I was familiar
with only one business machine--the
typewriter.
In 1942 I returned to become head
of the business education department
and placement bureau of that same
high school, and I found that business
students were being trained to use
not only the typewriter , but also
keeping machines, the Mimeograph,
adding machines, calcu lators , bookthe Ditto, the Dictaphone, and the
telephone switchboard .
I make these statements • to show
the progress that had been made in
11 years to better fit our high school
graduates for the business world.
Since 1937 there has been a con tinuous follow-up of the graduates of
the Easton (Pennsylvania) High
School. A number of surveys were
made to determine what positions
were open to graduates in the offices
and stores of the community. A careful study of placement records was
made. From these three sources the
following summary is presented:
Of those students employed in offi ces an d stores , 45% were employed
in clerical positions; 31% were employed in secretarial positions; 12%
were engaged in retail selling; and
12% were employed as bookkeepers.
We m ust continu e t o train effi ci ent
secretaries and stenograph ers, salesclerks, and bookkeepers, but we must
also tr ain efficient cler ical workers if
we are going to meet the requirements of business.
A "C" average may be required in
shorthand I in order to study shorthand II; a "C" average may be required in bookkeeping I in order to
study bookkeeping II; and a "C"
average may be required in retailing
I in order to study retailing II. It is
good to set up standards as prerequisites for advanced study of shorth and , bookkeeping, and retailing; but
what shall we do with those students
who do not make the grade ? Shall
we allow them to drift into woodworking, dressmaking, or some other
department because there is nothing
else for them in the business department of the high school.
The business department should
retain as many students as possible.
Even though they can 't seem to get
their shorthand dictation or transcribe their outlines accurately ; even
though they have trouble with their
trial balances or their income statements; even thpugh they are not
fitted to become salesmen or salesladies, surely if our boys and girls
have the desire and average intelligence, they have some business skill
that can be developed in the general
clerical practice classes.
According to the studies of Easton
Hi gh School graduates, the following
are the duties clerks are called upon
to perform : using the telephone,
writing letters, typing from copy,
preparing statements, typing bills,
cashier duties, posting original entries, payroll work, mail clerk work,
filing , Mimeograph operator, Ditto
operator, machine transcription , recording orders, writing orders, operating calculating machines, operating
adding and listing machines, taking
inventory, collection work , checking
postings, figuring costs, shipping and
receiving work, time keeping, running errands, multigraph operator.
As in other business sequences ,
wherever possible a cooperative work
program should be carried on in general clerical practice. If this program
is not possible, part-time work in
school offices gives students valuable
experience in clerical duties. During
the past few years students have
secured part-time j obs without any
difficulty, and the sharing of their
experiences with teachers and fellow
students has made more effective

ii of the true ability of the players and
;i would be almost as great an honor
'i as being an All-American.
I Such is not the case, however, or
so it seems from this corner, anyway.
This season's selections, like those of
\ last year, appear to have been made
' by voters who shut their eyes and
j abbed a pin in the line-ups that ap% peared in newspapers or programs.
I The names that were j abbed most
; often were fortunate enough to be
i seen in headlines as the cream of the
Teachers College Conference. Quite
naturally, we have no substantial evidence to back up this theory. We
haven 't witnessed all the select players in action and can't disagree with
the "experts." But, for the lif e of us
we can 't see how George Paternoster
i and Steve Kriss failed to gain even
an honorable-mention post. Appar|cntly, their teammates are as baffled
I as we are. As we say, we can't nomj Inate Kriss and Paternoster for first,
'* second, or third string positions on
any team without first seeing1 the
i others play, but honorable mention
should be that, and not just a group
' of names.
i One sure-tire method of naming a
' representative All - Conference team
would be to have the players on each
team do the nominating. Now, the
players don't oppose each player in
the league, but they could select an
All-Opponent team to which the
sports writers and coaches , and anybody else who does the voting, would
have to confine their balloting, giving
due regard to the men whose names
appear most consistently in All-Opponent line-ups. This system would at
least decrease the possibility of a
selector using the "eeny-meeny-minymoe " process and coming up with
some , school's waterboy as AlUConference quarterback.
I If the bigwigs can't do tills, then
1 they should select two first teams
I and make a division classifying thorn
I an tho All - Conference "Gentlemen
I Team " and tho All-Conference footI ball team. Whatever the case, favoritism should be ruled out of the selections completely, and players named
only if they have proved their merit
and their selections are approved by
tho majority of football players and
fans.

Owl Lang Syne . . .
An owl has become a well-known alumnus of Bloomsburg. Late in the
f all , following Homecoming, one of these wise old birds observes a home-
coming all of his own and moves into a ventilator shaft in Science Hall,
there to establish his residence for the winter. Upon his return , he is usually
captured and given the once-over by Dr. Kuster, who then sets him at liberty
again. Old Faithful has yet to make his 1948 debut. However, one of hi s
kinsmen did appear a few weeks ago, only to refuse to eat in captivity and
later depart in a huff of indignation when given his freedom. When Old
Faithful returns, he should be drafted as official mascot of the men 's section
of Waller Hall, where he could serve as a seeing-eye owl for the Friday
night revelers who stream in from bacchanalian haunts ai: the sound of
Chanticleer 's midnigh t horn.

Sophomore is derived from two Greek words — 'sophs' an d 'm oros '—
meaning, respectively, 'wise' and 'foolish'. According to strict logical definition, when you tell someone you are a sophomore, you are actually telling
them you are "a foolish person who has assumed an air of wisdom." . . .
Cu rri culu m , also, has a rather unique origin. In the days when the Roman
Empire was flourishing, a curriculum was nothing more or less than 'a race
track. And now, as we begin to cram for that homestretch race with time,
the resemblance becomes all the more apparent.

The Department of Parlor Warfare notes with interest an article published recently in a scientific journal. The gist of thi$ article was, bri efly,
that redheads are probably more easily aroused to ire than are blondes or
brunettes. "Accelerated motor innervation " was offered as a partial explanation for this curious phenomenon. There might be something to it.
Young lads courting auburn-haired lassies should not overlook this matter
of motor innervation. The Doghouse, how ever, will reserve its opinion until
further careful study can be made. Many of these theories fail for the want
of sufficient evidence. A number of people subscribe to the hypothesis that
brunettes are more sympathetic than blondes. This no doubt contains more
truth than the former statement , with the assumption being based chiefly
upon heresay evidence. In this age in which the cosmetician rules supreme ,
we must regard hair color as a variable rather than a constant.

For centuries there have been people who occupy themselves telling
other people what's going on. Interested, mainly , in interesting us, they
dig deep down into our natures and
find that it's the sensational stuff
that brings home the most cookies.
Let' s leaf back through the pages of
our History of Civ. book and see* what
they were selling at the beginning,
the very beginning.
Way back when our good old Pennsylvania anthracite was still bearing
fr u it , we find on the opening wall of
the Daily Cave, a picture of a hairy
socialite, cracking his steady on the
dome with a Tyrannosaurus egg. The
story is contin ued on wall lour between two columns of stone implements and fur wrap-around advertisements.
Advancing rather rapidly, we collide with a boisterous young man clad
in a gold headband , who is waving a
stone slab and shouting, "Get your
Evening Tablet—Sixty-seven of Phar aoh's Wives Suing for Divorce. "
Some cent u ri es la t er we reach into
the nearest trash can and drag out a
sheet of stuff that resembles a combination of Grade F wallpaper and an
old Army blanket; its a day-old copy
of The Nile Daily Newpapyrus, and
in two-inch headlines — "Julius Gets

"Odds 50-to-l Against Christopher ,"
"Columbo Next Failure, Say Pollsters," etc.

Recital at Thanksgiving Assembly
Talented Vocalist Gives
Variety of Selections
Miss Ruth Von Bergen, chairman
of the student assembly committee,
open ed the special Thanksgiving program on the morning of November
23 with a scripture reading. Mr. E.
A. Reams tnen introdu ced the vocal
artist who provided the entertainment of the morning.
Mr. Charles Latterner , a tenor
soloist and native of Syracuse, New
York , h as res u m ed his studi es in a
career as a professional singer in and
about New York City. He recently
completed five ye ars in the Armed
Forces. The vocalist is a graduate of
Gettysburg College and has received
his M.A. from Columbia University.
His accompanist, Mr. Robert Sheffer,
is a native of Watsontown and a
veteran of twenty years musical experience.
A variety of selections was presented. As his opening number, Mr.
Latterner sang Purcell's, "I Attempt
f rom Love's Sickness to Fly." Following this was a lover's song to his
maid, "Passing By." Closing the first
group was an old Scottish ballad ,
"Lord Randall. "
"Gor Lovely Rose" w a s contrasted
in the second group of selections by a
light and frivolous , "The Bold, Unbiddable Child." "Homing," by Teresa
Del Riego , the third of this group,
was familiar to most of the audience.
Less well known were the next
three offerings. "Who Knows" was
followed by a plaintive plea, "Do Not
Go , My Love," and a lament, "O,
That It Were So."
Programmed as the opening number of the final group was Firestone's
"If I Could Tell You." The short and
sentiment al "When I Have Sung My
Songs " provided another contrast to
the rapid and rollicking "The Sleigh"
which followed. The well-known and
well-loved "Because," by Guy d'Hardelot, closed the program. In response
to the insistent applause, Mr. Latterner responded with "My Little
Banj o " as an encore.

Louis Pecorra , of the program committee, introduced several student
teachers as speakers. Frank Luchnick
addressed the club in a review of
t some of the student teacher's problems. Miss Peggy Such y called student teaching "a wonderful experi ence , " and stated that Its value lies
in the fact that it supplies information on what to expect in actual
teaching, MJss Pauline Kokolias described the WUliamsport School System , and talked of her experiences
while practice - teaching typing and
shorthand there.
Mr. Rygiel , faculty advisor, told the
club that he grades a student teacher
on personality, time spent on the lesson plan, technique In presentation,
and student reaction to presentation,
Mr. Rygiol stressed preparation of

based on originality, style, and sincerity.
The "Annual Anthology of College
Poetry " will be released in January,

* Modern Renaissanc e . . . .
Looking toward the future, we envision a world teeming with
opportunities and ideas for the advancement of the human race in
science, industry, literature, medicine, and the arts.
Whether we like it or not , we Americans are destined to play a
major role in this modern renaissance. American ingenuity and
perseverance will mstill the world with 'a vitality that will evoke an
eruption of human ambitions toward an ultimate goal of cultural and
economic stability.
The present atomic age offers a million and one opportunities for
intelli gent men to utilize their abilities in those fields to which they
have dedicated their lives — whether it be the laboratory, the classroom , or the farm. It will be up to us as individuals to' make each
particular task or undertaking as educational as possible. Great accomplishments are sometimes performed by groups or classes, but
more often by individual people. If possible, we should ad/vanes ourselves through a formal education or personal experience. To be
content with what we now understand indicates a tendency to lose
our foresight and preparedness.
By showing students the necessity of planning for the future , our
colleges and universities are preparing men to face their duties and
obligations in the world of tomorrow with confidence.
David Lilienthal once said , " . . . an informed and understanding
people will not be taken in by sweet talk , or scared by shadows, or
stumble, or be pushed, into some desperate finality. "
The decisions of this country rest with the people — ALL the
people.

The Coming Winter . . . .
A destructive winter has come to the world. The breezeu of yesterday have become powerful winds. They are creeping through the
world — numbing minds , killing kindness, love, and freedom. They
bring fear and hate and uncertainty. Their worst enemy is warmth ,
and the enemy is weak. The warm-hearted peoples of democr a cy are
not united; and 'Where there is no unity, there is no strength. So the
winds blow on.
In the world are several leaders who believe that their ideas may
be able to relieve us from the winds of oppression. They speak of
world un ity through World Federation. Their belief may foster a
better and happier, universe than one could imagine. On the other
hand , if their ideas do not bring benef ici al resul t s, the y can h ardl y
make world conditions any worse than they are now.
Many times we have planted seeds of democracy: and , a s many
times , t he ir blossoms have been k illed by t he destruct ive wi nds of
oppression. None of our protective methods have been very successful. But it is never too late to begin again. We can plant our seeds
once more and use the unity of World Federation as a new protection .
If it is not successful , we must find a better means.
Even those who are opposed to World Federation admit that they
have no solution to offer in its stead. Instead of wasting valuable time ,

The B.S.T.C. Railroad began operation at Christmas - tide, 1940, when
some North Hall men bought a small
train and tracks which they set up in
Waller Kail Lobby . Among these promoters of the railroad were Walter
Reed, John Lavelle, Grant Brittingham, Thurwald Gommer, Jacob Kot ch ,
and Howard Tonnlinson. They soon
decided that they wanted a bigger
and better outfit , so they issued a
prospectus and sold stock for that
purpose. Forty-five subscribed and
received capital stock.
Since that time the railroad , under
the direction and supervision of Dr.
Kehr, was operated by the students
each Christmas. During the war, the
Navy men in training here helped
with the operation. The first group,
t h e AVP' s, who were commissioned
officers preparing to be flight instructors, were inclined to be skeptical
about college students playing with
an electric train. In fact, they bought
quite an amount of track and equipment. Then V-5's, aviation cadets,
also liked the railroad. One Christmas they had only a day off and the
train provided them with some Christ-

Instructor in Business Education
from the "UBEA Forum"
1
by Clayton H, Hinkel
When I was graduated from high
school i n 1931, although I had had
adequate training according to the
standards of that day, I was familiar
with only one business machine--the
typewriter.
In 1942 I returned to become head
of the business education department
and placement bureau of that same
high school, and I found that business
students were being trained to use
not only the typewriter , but also
keeping machines, the Mimeograph,
adding machines, calcu lators , bookthe Ditto, the Dictaphone, and the
telephone switchboard .
I make these statements • to show
the progress that had been made in
11 years to better fit our high school
graduates for the business world.
Since 1937 there has been a con tinuous follow-up of the graduates of
the Easton (Pennsylvania) High
School. A number of surveys were
made to determine what positions
were open to graduates in the offices
and stores of the community. A careful study of placement records was
made. From these three sources the
following summary is presented:
Of those students employed in offi ces an d stores , 45% were employed
in clerical positions; 31% were employed in secretarial positions; 12%
were engaged in retail selling; and
12% were employed as bookkeepers.
We m ust continu e t o train effi ci ent
secretaries and stenograph ers, salesclerks, and bookkeepers, but we must
also tr ain efficient cler ical workers if
we are going to meet the requirements of business.
A "C" average may be required in
shorthand I in order to study shorthand II; a "C" average may be required in bookkeeping I in order to
study bookkeeping II; and a "C"
average may be required in retailing
I in order to study retailing II. It is
good to set up standards as prerequisites for advanced study of shorth and , bookkeeping, and retailing; but
what shall we do with those students
who do not make the grade ? Shall
we allow them to drift into woodworking, dressmaking, or some other
department because there is nothing
else for them in the business department of the high school.
The business department should
retain as many students as possible.
Even though they can 't seem to get
their shorthand dictation or transcribe their outlines accurately ; even
though they have trouble with their
trial balances or their income statements; even thpugh they are not
fitted to become salesmen or salesladies, surely if our boys and girls
have the desire and average intelligence, they have some business skill
that can be developed in the general
clerical practice classes.
According to the studies of Easton
Hi gh School graduates, the following
are the duties clerks are called upon
to perform : using the telephone,
writing letters, typing from copy,
preparing statements, typing bills,
cashier duties, posting original entries, payroll work, mail clerk work,
filing , Mimeograph operator, Ditto
operator, machine transcription , recording orders, writing orders, operating calculating machines, operating
adding and listing machines, taking
inventory, collection work , checking
postings, figuring costs, shipping and
receiving work, time keeping, running errands, multigraph operator.
As in other business sequences ,
wherever possible a cooperative work
program should be carried on in general clerical practice. If this program
is not possible, part-time work in
school offices gives students valuable
experience in clerical duties. During
the past few years students have
secured part-time j obs without any
difficulty, and the sharing of their
experiences with teachers and fellow
students has made more effective

IDonan on All-Pennsylvania Eleven; Cage Prospects Bright,
SIDELINES I
III
IN SPORTS . . .
,
by Curt Miller
i In all probability, the football playJL rs of B.S.T.C. have performed for
\ the last time this year, but a number
i of incidents have occurred lately to
I keep th e name of Bloomsburg on the
fo otball map. The selection of Tom| my Donan as All-State tackle comes
as no surprise, nor does the evident
reluctance of Tangerine Bowl officials to invite the Huskies to their
New Year 's Day program. The reason
for this is rath er apparent and isn 't
worth mentioning. We're proud of
our team and every member on it.
In being: chosen on the All-PennsyJvania eleven, Donan surpassed Nick
Bolkovac of Pittsburgh who was recently named to a second team position on the N. E. A. All - American
team. So, Mr. Donan is apparently
an All-American, isn't he?
Though the selection of an AllIAmerican is a matter of question
II
i because of the obvious impossibility
I of every talented player being obi served by the pickers, it seem s th at
i the nominations of players to an Allj: Conf erence squad would be indicative
ii of the true ability of the players and
;i would be almost as great an honor
'i as being an All-American.
I Such is not the case, however, or
so it seems from this corner, anyway.
This season's selections, like those of
\ last year, appear to have been made
' by voters who shut their eyes and
j abbed a pin in the line-ups that ap% peared in newspapers or programs.
I The names that were j abbed most
; often were fortunate enough to be
i seen in headlines as the cream of the
Teachers College Conference. Quite
naturally, we have no substantial evidence to back up this theory. We
haven 't witnessed all the select players in action and can't disagree with
the "experts." But, for the lif e of us
we can 't see how George Paternoster
i and Steve Kriss failed to gain even
an honorable-mention post. Appar|cntly, their teammates are as baffled
I as we are. As we say, we can't nomj Inate Kriss and Paternoster for first,
'* second, or third string positions on
any team without first seeing1 the
i others play, but honorable mention
should be that, and not just a group
' of names.
i One sure-tire method of naming a
' representative All - Conference team
would be to have the players on each
team do the nominating. Now, the
players don't oppose each player in
the league, but they could select an
All-Opponent team to which the
sports writers and coaches , and anybody else who does the voting, would
have to confine their balloting, giving
due regard to the men whose names
appear most consistently in All-Opponent line-ups. This system would at
least decrease the possibility of a
selector using the "eeny-meeny-minymoe " process and coming up with
some , school's waterboy as AlUConference quarterback.
I If the bigwigs can't do tills, then
1 they should select two first teams
I and make a division classifying thorn
I an tho All - Conference "Gentlemen
I Team " and tho All-Conference footI ball team. Whatever the case, favoritism should be ruled out of the selections completely, and players named
only if they have proved their merit
and their selections are approved by
tho majority of football players and
fans.
Incidentally, we aren 't casting slurs
upon the fellows from our school who

Owl Lang Syne . . .
An owl has become a well-known alumnus of Bloomsburg. Late in the
f all , following Homecoming, one of these wise old birds observes a home-
coming all of his own and moves into a ventilator shaft in Science Hall,
there to establish his residence for the winter. Upon his return , he is usually
captured and given the once-over by Dr. Kuster, who then sets him at liberty
again. Old Faithful has yet to make his 1948 debut. However, one of hi s
kinsmen did appear a few weeks ago, only to refuse to eat in captivity and
later depart in a huff of indignation when given his freedom. When Old
Faithful returns, he should be drafted as official mascot of the men 's section
of Waller Hall, where he could serve as a seeing-eye owl for the Friday
night revelers who stream in from bacchanalian haunts ai: the sound of
Chanticleer 's midnigh t horn.

Sophomore is derived from two Greek words — 'sophs' an d 'm oros '—
meaning, respectively, 'wise' and 'foolish'. According to strict logical definition, when you tell someone you are a sophomore, you are actually telling
them you are "a foolish person who has assumed an air of wisdom." . . .
Cu rri culu m , also, has a rather unique origin. In the days when the Roman
Empire was flourishing, a curriculum was nothing more or less than 'a race
track. And now, as we begin to cram for that homestretch race with time,
the resemblance becomes all the more apparent.

The Department of Parlor Warfare notes with interest an article published recently in a scientific journal. The gist of thi$ article was, bri efly,
that redheads are probably more easily aroused to ire than are blondes or
brunettes. "Accelerated motor innervation " was offered as a partial explanation for this curious phenomenon. There might be something to it.
Young lads courting auburn-haired lassies should not overlook this matter
of motor innervation. The Doghouse, how ever, will reserve its opinion until
further careful study can be made. Many of these theories fail for the want
of sufficient evidence. A number of people subscribe to the hypothesis that
brunettes are more sympathetic than blondes. This no doubt contains more
truth than the former statement , with the assumption being based chiefly
upon heresay evidence. In this age in which the cosmetician rules supreme ,
we must regard hair color as a variable rather than a constant.

loose ends on your,several sagging courses, only to find that the only thing
you cracked was a couple chestnuts on Thanksgiving Day ? If it happened
to you, don't feel too bad about it. It happens in the best of families, and
as long as human nature retains the human element, it will continue to
happen. Take consolation in the knowledge that many a book went along
j ust for the ride. Besides , it does one good to take an occasional nip from
the Circean cup of procrastination , providing it doesn't become a habit.

For centuries there have been people who occupy themselves telling
other people what's going on. Interested, mainly , in interesting us, they
dig deep down into our natures and
find that it's the sensational stuff
that brings home the most cookies.
Let' s leaf back through the pages of
our History of Civ. book and see* what
they were selling at the beginning,
the very beginning.
Way back when our good old Pennsylvania anthracite was still bearing
fr u it , we find on the opening wall of
the Daily Cave, a picture of a hairy
socialite, cracking his steady on the
dome with a Tyrannosaurus egg. The
story is contin ued on wall lour between two columns of stone implements and fur wrap-around advertisements.
Advancing rather rapidly, we collide with a boisterous young man clad
in a gold headband , who is waving a
stone slab and shouting, "Get your
Evening Tablet—Sixty-seven of Phar aoh's Wives Suing for Divorce. "
Some cent u ri es la t er we reach into
the nearest trash can and drag out a
sheet of stuff that resembles a combination of Grade F wallpaper and an
old Army blanket; its a day-old copy
of The Nile Daily Newpapyrus, and
in two-inch headlines — "Julius Gets
Bumped; Cleo and Mark Regular
Hot-spotters. "
Somewhere around 800 A.D. we're

say ? — "Charlemagne 's Nose Bows

Things j ust eased along until the
15th century. Then a Joker named
Gutenburg invented the printing
press, and they 've been putting the
screws to us ever since. Columbus
was the first to feel the work of
Gutenburg ; the various publications
running such heads as: "Columbus
Predicted Not To Discover America,"
"Odds 50-to-l Against Christopher ,"
"Columbo Next Failure, Say Pollsters," etc.
"Galileo Observed Entering Leaning Tower with Redhead" floors us in
1600, and "Beethoven and Two Contraltos Nabbed in Reefer Raid," in
turn , knocks us on our posteriors in
1800. Between 1830 and 1900 there

the Railroad found itself In the most
unusual disaster of its history — the
American Flyer high - speed engine
was stolen. However, the Board of
Directors would not admit defeat,
and bankruptcy proceedings wore
cancelled.
This year, 1948, the Railroad expects to add another engine and more
equipment than ever before. With the
cooperation of the students—and capital going on sale at 10 cents per
share, it is expected that more stockholders than all other years combined
will be added to the corporation 's
ledger of stockholders. Stock will be
