1. ATHLETICS:
¦
1948-49, which was revised and reB written by the College Council recently was adopted after receiving
subsequen t approval by President
Harvey A. Andruss.
The approved budget policy, together with the interpretations and allocative designations, is as follows:

Budget policy and interpretations:
1. Each allocation under ( B-TentaCommunity Activities ExpenditIti ve Budget for ?.948-49 covers every
ure
expense for the function served. For
instance , especial attention is called
to the fact that items for Athletics—
B-l — covers all expenses including
awards, officials, equipment , transportation, advertising, communications,
medical and personnel services, etc.,
w for each activity.
1Since all expenditures are carried by
1the budget, all events are administer1ed as college proj ects and all receipts
l an d expenditures (including H i g h
I School Basketball Tournament and
I College Canteen) are considered in
I the Budget.
All schedules are to be reviewed imj i|
mediately and the athletic budget set
up on the basis of these allocations.
Not more than one athletic event in
one week is to be scheduled at home,
and not more than two eyents away
I from home, unless specifically approv1ed as an exception to this policy by
I the President of the College.
I 2. All balances of Community ActiI vities Fund at the end of the college
I year revert to the Reserve Fund.
I 3. The first and immediate respon1sibility of all organizations adminisI tering Community Activities Funds
1and/or student organization funds is
i to develop immediately detailed budI gets for the year 1948-49, since income
I and expenditures must balance. Mr.
1Forney will advise you regarding deI tails of the uniform accounting sys1 4. Mr. Hausknecht will please give
I such comparative figures as he has to
1 faculty advisors and student officials.
I The audit of the Community ActiviI ties Fund, made by Mr. Gehrig during
the summer, is available for examination in the office of the President.
Copies of this audit may not be taken
from the office.
5. For the first time the Federal
Internal Revenue Tax on admission is
being budgeted so that all expendi1 tures will show in the budget and the
¦
Federal tax will not be charged
I against specific sports.
I 6. The cultural programs include
I the weekly assemblies, the college
I entertainment course, and 400 reser] vations for students to attend the
I four numbers of the Bloomsburg Civic Music Association. These reservations include tax and students need
only show their Certificate of Registration for admission.
7. The College and Community Service includes Alumni Meetings, High
School Visitations, and other community service. There will be two Baccalaureate and two Commencement Exorcises during the year, This item
also includes the tax paid for faculty
and student tickets.
8. Item B-V Music, and Item B-VI
Public Relations, have been budgeted
very much the same as last year except t h e Orch estra , as an activity, has
been dropped.
9. Under organizations you will notice that an expenditure of $1,000 from
th e estimated profi ts of th e Canteen
has been allocated to the Obiter. It
seems wise to budget all activities so

College Newman Club
Initiates Twent y-One
In Recent Cere mony.
Twenty-one new members of the
Newman Club were recently formally
initiated into that organization at an
impressive service held in St. Columba's Hall. A degree team composed
of Paul Plevyak, Nancy Wesneyak,
George Dotzel, Joe Vincent, and Joseph Sopko.
Reverend Father William Burke
gave a talk on the life of Cardinal
Newman.
The new members were welcomed
into the group by the club sponsors,
Mr. Walter Rygiei, who gave a short
talk on the responsibilities they will
assume as Newmanites. George Dotzel, the club president, displayed and
explained the club crest.
Holding lighted candles, the pledges
gave their profession of faith. The
ceremonies were then closed by the
singing of the "Holy God, We Praise
Thy Name."
A short business meeting was held
and officers for 1949 were elected.
They are: president, Joe Vincent ;
vice-president, Joseph Gieda,' secretary, Jean Petarra ; treasurer, Gay
Palutis; and marshall, John Shanahan.
Since 1947, when the local Newman
Club was organized, the grsup "has
enj oyed an active and varied program.
Plans for next semester are now being formulated. Among these are the
plans for a basketball team which will
participate in college intramurals and
play other Newman Club teams.
Members initiated w e r e Joseph

Betty Cole, Anne Geibel, Mary Hickey, Eleanor Bolinsky, Jack Purcell,

College To Accept
80 New Students
Next Semester
Critical Teacher Shortage
Prompts Mid-Year Action
Come January 19, 1949, B. S. T. C.
will be enlarged in population by an
allotment of eighty students. These
new students, who will take up their
academic tasks at the opening of the
semester next month, are being admitted chiefly to help alleviate the
critical teacher shortage which has
become alarmingly evident.
Dr. Thomas P. Nortn, Dean of Instruction, and also chairman of the
Pennsylvania State Commission on
Teacher education and Professional
Standards, points out that the admission of these new scholars is based
on action decided by the college authorities. Dr. North also points out that
a recent study made by the National
Commission has revealed that, in view
of the upward trend in birth rate and
the present-day enrollment of prospective teachers for the elementary
grades, a highly detrimental shortage
will exist for at least the next ten
years. In view of this fact, it is doubtful that the shortage can be remedied
even though the enrollment of college
students for preparation in elementary fields were to be accelerated by
three-fold or more times. This classroom, exodus becomes even more glaring when consideration is given to the
number of new teachers needed to fill
vacancies left by experienced teachers
as they die, retire, or quit the classrooms for various other reasons, plus
the replacement of part of the large
number of teachers now holding emergency teaching certificates.
In addition to this dire situation
which faces the educational world,
this increase in birth rate will later
seriously handicap the efficiency of
the high school bracket, since there is
also an existing shortage in that unit
at the present time. Perhaps the most
needy, so far as teachers are concerned, is the business education field.

NSA To Aid Placement
Of DP' s in U.S. Schools
The United States National Student
Association has begun its drive to
enable displaced persons to attend
American colleges next fall.
NSA, in cooperation with the President's Commission for Administration
of Public Law 774 and with the maj or
religious re-settlement agencies, has
been assigned the task of finding
housing, part-time jobs for self-support, and scholarships or tuition-waivers for DP students.
Although more than 10,000 DP students have applied for aid, only a
small percentage can be accepted.
Each college will be able to choose
the applicants who best meet its requirements.
jnj sa's sub-commission at Harvard
University is in charge of the program
and has begun sending instructions to
the 265 NSA member college and universities on how to arrange for the
DP's at their institutions.
After they have assured financial
support for the new students, NSA
delegations in the member colleges
will ask the presidents of their institutions to sign "assurances" that
the students will be admitted.
The selected student will be transported from the DP center to the
United States by the International
Refugee Organization of the United
Nations.
In order to avoid discrimination; the
DP's accepted will include an equal
num b er of Protestants, Catholics, and
Jews.

Under New Management . . . .
A number of days ago the infant year 1949 took on the burdens
left to him by that fati g u ed gent l eman , Mr. 1948. When the Old Year
limped off into history, he left behind a world clouded with problems
and confusion. It is up to the youthful and expectant New Year to
solve the serious problems bequeathed to him by a fumbling, misgui ded
predecessor.
The young 1949 appears to be a strong, stur d y lad who will be
able to undertake the responsibilities thrust upon him. But like his
f oreb ear ers , he needs help to win his goals and solve the critical problems which confront him. He looks toward the many peoples of the
world, soliciting their aid. If we share his hardshi ps an d sacri f ices ,
we will share in the fruits of his success . . . peace , h appiness , and
prosperity, {mm )

Int ernational Whitewashing . . . .
In the recent national election of November, 1948, the American
people selected a number of new men to lead our nation throug h an
era of unprecedented significance. The United States stands on the
threshold of a period which can well decide the fate of the world.
During the next four years, the American government will have
the advantage of having one political party controlling both the Senate
and the Presidency. Coupled with a bi parti san fo rei gn policy, t h is
government m u st secure it s positi on of preeminence in the world. We
must also consolidate our social and cultural gains of the past decade
and mold them into a pattern that will aid us in holding aloft the
beacon light of leadership among the free and democratic nations of
the world.
Part of that leadership was exemplified in our democratic election
by proving to all nations that democracy does work , an d t h at t h e
American people are in full support and stand steadfastly behind our
country 's program of international aid as illustrated by the Marshall
Plan .
Among those new Congressmen taking office in January, let us
hope that there is another Cordell Hull or another Arthur Vandenburg
in the making. The world is in dire need of men who realize the
necessity of international cooperation—both cultural and economic.
We as a nation must be on guard against any reversion to isolationism as typified during the pre-war years; we must instill our leaders
with the ever-increasing realization that no nation can long exist except
through cooperation and interwoven activities with its world neighbors,
(wj )

Educatio n By Thinking . . . .
True education means not a pumping-in of facts , but a drawingout of inner ability. The student should be regarded as a deep and
hidden well , not as an empty tank to be filled. The mind is not in
need of being filled. It must be stirred scr as to bubble up from within.
If you are to know success in its fullest sense, explore that great
universe that is bounded on the north by the hair of your head, on the
south by the soles of your feet, on the east and west by the outstretched tips of your fingers. The world's greatest universities are
located under the hats of self-searching men. The most any institution
of learning can do is to hold the light by which you may ignite your
own candle. ("Graphic")
Whom, then, do I call educated ?-—
First, those who control circumstances
instead of being mastered by them,
those who meet all occasions manfully and act in accordance with Intelligent thinking, those who are honorable in all dealings, who treat good
naturedly persons and things that are
disagreeable, an d f ur th ermore , those
who hold their pleasures under control and are not overcome by misf ortune , finally those who are not
spoiled by success.
—Isoorates

Our generation knows, as no generation before it has ever known , that
peace must be made. If we mean
when we talk of peace that nothing
this time will stop us from making
peace — that neither lies nor deceptions nor tricks nor our own weariness will prevent us—if we mean this
we can speak of peace to the living
and dead without shame. For nothing
is true or honest in the talk of peace
but our own purpose. And the choice

is ours.

•—Archibald MaoLolsh

My soul aches with a painful wearin ess;
Memories filled to the brim with regrets
Of things that should be but are not
And thing s that are but should not be
Weigh down, upon my tired soul,
Compelling me to cry
Unto the skies, to God on high
To free me from my bond of life.

Cagers Meet East Stroudsburg Tonight; Visit King's Tuesday

SIDELINES I
IN SPORTS . . .
by Curt Miller

The Huskies are off to a fast start
in their basketball season, and a little
brushir>g up here and there should
take them through their most outstanding season in years.
Though no one is claiming a championship yet, it's more than likely
that a few more victories over conference clubs, such as the one turned
in over nan-conf erence Wilkes, will
start the bandwagon rolling.
L ast year ' the Wishermen found the
going difficult on the home floor. This
season we find things a bit different
with the lone reversal coming on the
Lock Haven floor. With a few more
games under their belts, the Huskies
are confident they can turn the tables
on th e Bald Eagles in the next meeting several weeks hence.
The players haven't been to proficient from the foul line, as Mr. Von
Stetten's statistics will indicate, but
they are definitely improving-. This
defect*is likely to disappear as the
season gets out of its early stages.
A veteran squad is a decided asset,
and as last year, it is probable that
there will be no individual standout,
but each game might produce a different star. Dave Linchorst has made an
impressive debut and deserves a great
deal of praise for his excellent playing
in this, his first college season. He
proved that his sharp shooting in the
Millersville contest was no flash in
the pan when he bounced back after
being stalled at Lock Haven to lead
his mates to the victory over Wilkes
College. Eddie Jones, the big center
has been a steadying influence on the
te am , but his markmanship doesn't
appear to be up to par, for him, as
yet. "Smokey " Andrews has shared
the burden of defense with Jones, and
has carried on with Linchorst in the
shooting end of the game.
Kashner, who could be a big help to
the squad if he could regain his 1947
form, is out for the time being with
an injured hand. We believe that if
he were only blessed with height, he
would be one of the best players in
the state.
The Huskies will have to be "up" in
every one of the remaining contests
if they hope to bid for championship
honors. They looked good against
Wilkes — let's hope they keep it up.
Speaking: of steadying influences,
Elmer Kreiser should be mentioned in
that category, we believe. He's calm
and intelligent, and teams up nicely
with Walt Banull in forming a picture
of precision on the cage floor. They
evidently disregard the audience and
play the game for what it's worth,
caring: little about appearances, but
desiring to win only. They deserve
credit for the fighting attitude which
they have displayed this season.
Yes,' the players are enthusiastic
about their chances in the title race,
and tonight's fray with Stroudsburg
should place some light on the prospects of bringing home the bunting
when the curtain rings down,
Win or lose, though, we're certain
we're going; to find a Husky team on
tho floor determined to win at all
costs, sometiling that last season's
organization appeared to lack. Tho
squad seems improved In all departments, and Is superior in ball-handling
and shooting* to the 47-48 edition. It
Is faster, because tho players merely
have moro spirit, and It will out-fight
all its future opponents, a big factor
In winning games.

Victims of a late scoring spurt, the
Huskies suffered their first defeat, 5545, at the hands of the Lock Haven
Bald Eagl es, after creeping to within
two points of the winners in the last
qu arter.
The Eagles, already veterans- of
contests with LaSalle, St. Joseph's,
and Scranton University, sent a big
team into battle. They took the lead
in the second quarter and never lost
it.
Bob "Smokey " Andrews spearheaded the Husky attack with 17 points,
Ed Jones followed with eight, and
Elmer Kreiser with six. The Wishermen, howev er , tripped at the foul line,
sinking only seven foul shots out of
19 tries.
The Bald Eagles guard, Woody
Shaffer, equalled Andrews' 17 point s ;
his mates, Johnny Rimmey and George
Mitro, came up with ten and nine

The Colonels of Wilkes College
wilted before a withering Husky
"whammy " which ran up a 69-3( '
scor e, December 20, bef ore six hundred spectators. This was the second
win in three starts for the Wishermen.
The Huskies took the firs t quarter
to get under way. Nine minutes of
that period ticked away with the
score either tied or with a two point
separation.
Andrews "Smokes" Colonels
"Smokey" Andrews flipped in a onehander from the foul line to put the
Huskies ahead 11-9 at the nine minute
mark. Two more by Andrews and one
by Dave Linkchorst pushed the score
to 17-9 at the end of the period .
In the second, Bloomsburg blossomed with 21 points while the Wilkesers
merely budded with seven. Jones scored two, and Linkchorst one, befo r e
Joe Piorkowski could tap in a rebound
for Wilkes first score in the second
period. The teams swapped tallies
until the score stood at 29-16 three
minutes before half-time, wh en the
Huskies broke loose. Linkchorst sank
three goals and a foul, and Charley
Boyer added another two points with
a rebound , to roll the half-time score
to 38-16.
Game Won at Half
A dozen players and a variety of
combinations went through the motions in the second half and the score
still soared. Mike Evans, in his debut
for this season, dumped in four goals
in the third quarter to spark another
16 point drive for the Huskies while
Wilkes was making eight.
In the fin al fr ame, Bloomsburg
garnered 15 points against Wilkes' 13.
Perhaps half the Husky scoring could
be attributed to the fast - breaking
offen se, with Linkchorst, Bartleson,
Kashner, and Boyer sweating the opposition until the home team could
intercept and move to their own
basket.
Poor Passing
Spots of poor passing dotted an
otherwise excellent Husky performance. Attempts to blast the ball
through the Colonel's defense usually
were futile.
Phil Sekerchak, Wilkes shooting
star, managed to outscore players
from both teams by the simple process of shooting twice as much as
anyone else. He favored lofty one-

with 15. Mike Evans was third with

After playing host to a strong
aggregation from 'East Stroudsburg
tonight, the Huskies will j ourney to
Wilkes-Barre Tuesday to renew relations with a King's College team that
boasts of having one of the most experienced squads in the state.
The Wisher crew will have its work
cut out for it in both engagements.
East Stroudsburg opened its season
by extending Lafayette, one of the
nation's outstanding teams, before
bowing 55 to 41.
In view of the fact that King's
College was founded only two years
ago and is grinding out its third season of basketball competition , its accomplishments on the hardwoods are
little short of miraculous.
For their first court season, . the
Kingsmen were given a ten game
schedule which they completed without a defeat. Encouraged by the success of their initial season, the Kingsmen scheduled nineteen games for the
1947-48 season. During the months of
play, the Kin g's five garnered eleven
victories, while losing eight contests,
including two to the Huskies.
Although the statistics would seem
to indicate a mediocre record, many
of the games were lost by very narrow margins against high-quality
competition.
Five starters back
Among the men who sought and
won varsity assignments this season
are the five starting cagemen and
several substitute players from last
season's varsity team. Back in the
lineup lanky Tom McLaughlin, a stellar centerman who was one of the
finest pivotmen to appear in Bloomsburg last season. The current season
is his third as varsity center with the
King 's cage squad.
At the forward post is Bob Mulvey,
team captain and fine ball handler.
The speedy guards, Jack Murphy and
Bob McGrane team up nicely with the
remaining forward, Alex Wawer in
presenting a K.O. punch on the floor.
Two more of the court veterans who
can be counted on for fine relief work
are substitute forward, Herman Bozentka, and second-string guard Bill
Donlin.
Has Both Height and Talent
Though Coach Tom Brock is reluctant to rate his team as a powerful
one because of the King's schedule
which lists many experienced and
formidable opponents, King's fans and
players expect a good season and
intend to vindicate last season 's defeats at the hands of the Huskies.
With the pessimism that is characteristic of most American mentors,
Coach Brock bemoans the lack of
heigh t of his team. (Note: average
