Eula Beal Interprets .
Mood and Melody Before
Capacity Crowd at H.S.
The warmth and sunshine of California were brought to the stage of
the BloomsbaVg High School on the
evening of February 8 in the person
of Miss Eula Beal, charming young
contralto star of the concert stage.
She was very well received , and displayed throughout the program, a
charming personality and genuine interpretation of mood and melody as
she sang to a capacity audience. The
varied program offered by the artist
served well to exhibit her fine range
of voice and her mastery of both
classical and modern composition.
Her accompanist was Mr. Irving
Owen.
First on the program was an Italian operatic aria by Rossi. From the
German composers, Brahms and Mahler, were taken the second* group.
Again in an other language of the continen t, Miss Beal sang two numbers
by Hahn , and one by Faure, closing
this part of the program with the
beautiful aria "My Heart at Thy
Sweet Voice," from "Samson and Delilah ," by Saint-Saens. As an encore ,
Miss Beal responded with "The Fair
One," by Debussy.
Following intermission, the music
of Scandinavia was heard in a group
of three songs by Silbelius. The final

C.G.A. To Experiment
With New Nominating
Method This Year
The College Council has announced that it will experiment
with a new method of nominating Community Government
Association officer candidates
in the next election .
With the purpose in mind of
selecting the best qualified candidates , the Council believes
that the present method is inadequate for the following rea'
sons:
(1) The importance of these
offices to the student body and
to the entire College Community makes it imperative that only the best candidates be selected.
(2) The size of the student
body makes it difficult to select
for nomination , on the spur of
the moment, qualified candidates.
The C.G.A. Election Board
will act as a screening unit for
determining in advance whether candidates are eligible.
Petitions should be filed for
each candidate with the signatures of five or more students
from each of the following associations: Day Women , Dormitory Women , Day Men , and
Dormitory Men.
The Election Board will then
check these candidates for eligibility, according to the C.G.A.
Constitution,
Those eligible will be nominated from the floor in assembly.
The presiding officer will also
accept additional nominations
from the floor , but these will
have to be checked later for
eligibility.
The Election Board will post
details of procedure in the near
fu ture.

Revival o/ Dorm Girls' Pet Show
Much Enthusiasm Shown
In Waller Hall Pet Party
Camels, penguins, dogs , cats, pandas, squirrels, even pigs, were among
the hundred-odd animals—all "domesticated" pets—paraded through Waller Hall , on the evening of February
9. The parade was a feature of a traditional Wall Hall hen party, revived
this year for the first time since the
war. The animals, judge d by a committee composed of Mrs. R. B. Redman , Mrs. E. T. DeVoe, and Mrs. E.
A, Reams , ranged in size from an
inch in height to three feet , and were
made of glass, rubber , papier mache,
yarn , metal , fur , wood,—and one even
was made of milk chocolate.
The party, officially called the
Dorm Girls' Pet Show, raged over the
three floors of Waller Hall, and included , along with the animal parade,
a variety show and refreshments. The
entertainment , directed by Saya Silverman , featured a solo by Marion
Pollock , a quartet composed of Shirley Robzen , Lois Pulver, Saya Silverman , and Norma Lee McCormick,
and a poetry recit ation by Ruth Finklestein. There were also solos by
Charla Herring, Marion Lake, and
Jane Kenvin. Jenny Knauer and Margaret Roberts duet-ed , and Grace
Smith and Mary Helen Morrow closed the show with song-and-dance
routines based on the old numbers
"That Old Gang of Mine , " and "All
of Mo."
Grace Smith served, as general
chairman for the event , and Ruth
Doody was in charge of the colorful
poster advertising.
The judges decisions were as follows — Funniest : first , Vernamae

Miss Edna Hazen, Director of Elementary Education at the Bloomsburg State Teachers College, r ecen t ly
reported in an interview that there
is much interest being shown among
students concerning a college reading program for freshmen. Whenever
college students are found to be failing in the general subj ects course,
their instructors invariably question
their ability to read and study properly. When test s, such as the Iowa
Silent Reading Test, or the Ohio
State Psychology Exam in at ion are
administered, it is generally found
that the subj ect is deficient in specific
reading abilities and skills. Some colleges encourage the student to enroll
in a non-credit course. This instruction improves his reading ability, usually with the result that satisfactory
adj ustment and achievement in the
regular college channel of work is increased .
Miss Hazen , commenting on the
semantic approach to reading, said ,
"We are all accustomed to the use of
the radio i n our homes, but not many
teachers have used the radio in the
classroom to aid reading. Mrs. Ruth
Weir Miller, University of Pennsylvania radio lecturer , presented ways
in which the radio is a road to reading, and proved beyond doubt that
'radio , used with wisdom and intelligence, can widen reading horizons.' "
Miss Hazen further added, "It must
be the mission of the school to direct
the listener to worthwhile programs,
and to capitalize on listening for
school attainment. Teachers have
found that radio-listening increases
demands for reading materials, and
is a strong incentive for more reading."
Pres. Andruss Speaks at Indian Missionary
Triple Cities College
President of the College, Dr. Harvey A. Andruss, addressed a Triple
Cities College Convocation , February
9, on the subject "What Business Men
Expect of College Graduates," as a
part of "Business Administration
Day " activities. Triple Cities College
is a branch of Syracuse University,
and is located in Endicott , N.Y.
Arrangements were under the direction of Professor Bertrand Broder ,
chairman of the Department of Business Administration. Professor Broder was formerly a member of the
Accounting Department in the Shrivenham American ( Army) University, at Shrivenham , Berkshire, England, which Doctor Andruss headed
during 1945.
The Convocation was followed by
a business show in the afternoon and
a dance in the evening.
On a stage draped with colorful
hand-woven coverlets, and dotted
with spinning machines, Mrs. C. R.
Beeman, art instructress at the College, spun a yarn of the old-time textile industry, in an assembly program
in Carver Hall , February 10. During
the Colonial era, cloth manufacturing
was done at home. Mrs. Beeman
demonstrated a number of the machines necessary to the spinning of
threads and yarns to be woven into
fabric for clothing and linen. Life, according to Mrs. Beeman , must have
been much less expensive for the
father of a prospective bride, since
the young maid , or spinster ("one
who spins "), was required to make
her own trousseau, and fill a chest
with linens for her new home, ou t of
nothing but a supply of raw flax and
wool. The art instructress, who is
adept in the almost-lost art, demonstrated several types of spinning
wheels, a swift, and a wheel timer.
She also explained the "process of
washing and carding of wool, eventually following the method used up to
the point of converting the wool fibers ifite spinning- yarn.
The brilliant coverlets displayed on
the stage were borrowed from residents of the district. The exhibits
were all hand-loomed, and some were
over a hundred years old.
Valentine Court
To Be Selected At
Sophomore Cotillion
Hearts will be the theme of the
Sophomore Cotillion which is to be
held in Centennial Gymnasium on
Friday evening, February 25. At a
j oint committee meeting held earlier
this week, the Valentine motif was
decided upon and ground-work was
laid for further action on the committee resolutions.
One of the outstanding features of
the evening will be the coronation of
the King and Queen of Hearts, who
will be selected by student vote from
seven couples which are to be named
by a nominating committee in the
near future. According to representatives of the sophomore class, the Royal Court and its attendants will be
chosen from the student body at
large. The identity of the king and
queen is to be kept secret until right
before the actual coronation.
Those present at the j oint meeting
were George Reck, Russell Davis,
Nancy Powell, Delphine Buss, and
Caroline Vernois.
Phi Sigma Pi Frat

Knox Fellowship Meets
On Monday evening, February 14,
the Knox Fellowship met in the Presbyterian Church School, with Russ
Looker, President , leading in the devotional service.
An interesting program, consisting
of a historical film dealing with the*
life and works of Abraham Lincoln ,
was presented. Everyone enj oyed refreshments served by an appointed
committee. Shuffleboard and dartbaseball filled out the entertainment
aspect of the evening.
The home of Dr. and Mrs. Harvey
A. Andruss will be the scene of the
next meeting of the Fellowship which
is to be held Monday evening, February 21, at six o'clock.

one to be held at Dutch Hill, and the
other on the campus. A proposal to

Wash ington and Comp etition . . . .
While George Washington was President , h e won t h e con f i d ence
of his own peop le as well as the respect of foreign nations. His honesty
an d f airnes s, undoubtedly, were two valuable assets in the achievement
of these goals.
Since Washington 's time our nation has expanded greatly. With
this expansion its economic system has developed extensivel y an d h as
now b ecome a comp licated pattern of action. The controlling f orce
of this economic system is competition. Unfortunatel y, this term
competition " has come to entail unfairness, a usage which should
not b e f oun d in a d emocracy based on justi ce. It is true that all unfairness in competition cannot be eliminated , but often we consciously
disregard opportunities to expel it.
Perhaps society would be benefited if competitors, entering economic activities, would gui de their actions according to the honest
princi ples of a great President and a great Amgriean—George Washington, (mm )
What Did You Do?
Did you hear Eula Beal? Did you cl ap an d clap an d cl ap ? Were
you moved by h er unaccompanied presentation of "Were You There?"
Did you applaud as her last sweet note faded away? You did? Well ,
don 't look now , but you shouldn 't have. Of course , you appreciated
her efforts, but the fact remains that it is a violation of audience courtesy; and to some singers it is a definite effront to their ability of
int erpreting a sacred song if the audience applauds.
To show your appreciation for a sacred number presented on a
concert program , it is best to remain quiet — prolong the reverent
mood set by the soloist. A fter the artist has left the stage, the audien ce, if such be their will, may a pp laud for the usual curtain calls. If ,
however , the sacred number is part of another program -— .such as
"The Lord's Prayer " included in the commencement program — then
do not applaud at all. Wait till the program is over , then offer your
personal congratulations and thanks to the soloist. At any rate, don 't
app laud sacred numbers, Including the spirituals. If you d o , j ust remember '— your ignorance is showing, (jk)
Communism and Edu cation . . . .
In the world today, there are those governmental leaders who
uphold the doctrine that the state has a mind and will of its own. They
even say that the state has a public conscience. However, it is evident
that both will and conscience attributed to the state comes from the
minds and consciences of certain individual citizens in that state.
When freedom of thoug ht and conscience are taken away, mental
and moral life are also taken away. This is the plan of the dictatorial
ruler , who , by force or other means, stops freedom of expression. His
next action is to shape the imagination and thinking of the masses
along his own lines. Therefore, freedom and democracy die.
The Czarist regime of Russia practiced this method diligentl y.
For centuries, the Russians were kept in an abysmal ignorance of the
outside world, which was progressing intellectually, materially, and
spirituall y. Consequentl y, the Russians adopted "Nichivo ," a sort of
fatalistic psychology, characterized by a deferring of action and a
throwing of the responsibility for fate upon the hig her powers. As a
result, the corrupt regimes of the Czars were accepted by the masses
who could neither understand or pass judgment on vital political
matters.
It was from this state of affairs that the Communists "rescued"
Russia , and then later channeled it into a more ruthless type of political
tyranny.
While the Czars were content to let the people live in helpless
ignorance , the Communists set out to educate the masses — in their
own fanatical belief in the teachings of Marx and Lenin.
It cannot be denied that the Communist party has done an excellent job of modernizing Russia, but it is now faced with a peculiar
dilemma, Education is tending to sharpen intellectual curiosity; and
this is contrary to one of their pet theories <— that education tends to
undermine and destroy their vast monolithic structure.
Knowledge and understanding lead to individualism, The freethinking individual tends to make up his own mind and uphold his
personal convictions. A sufficiently-sized group of this type of Russian would soon agitate for a representative , democratic government,
In the United States, such a move on the part of the Russian populace
would be welcome news. However , any attempt on our part to promote any democratic inclination would be playing into the claws of
the Russian bear,
It would be wiser to remain morally, mentally, and militarily
strong in order that we do not encourage Russian aggression, (bj)

Trickling far deeper than the listening ears

portraits
..
7.
by Dr . Jason Almus Russell
Family albums and walnut-framed
portraits have gone out of fashion.
Once they flourished and were popular ; but for many a year the wooden
chest smothered beneath the attic
rubbish has held these almost forgotten family treasures.
Time was when picture albums and
portraits were an essential part of
home furnishings. Glance into the
parlor of several decades ago. Its
walls fairly blazed with figured wallpaper adorned with red dahlias and
scarlet roses. Stiffly arranged against
this background were the stilted rockerless uncomfortable chairs with their
"sausage-link" columns. Adding an
air of primness, the polished whatnot, the Franklin Fireframe, and the
starched wirfdow curtains all had
their place in the scheme of things
decorative.
The crowning feature, however ,
consisted of several ancestral portraits suspended from the wall by
means of heavy braided green cord,
encased in cumbersome frames. Here
the life-sized likenesses of bewhiskered uncles and grandfathers and bashful youths and maidens looked down
upon a more fri volous and carefree
generation.
Like sentinels, these portraits were
stationed along the four walls. Like
relics of some earlier period , they
added atmosphere and local color.
Austere glances seemed to follow the
visitor and often intimidated the less
venturesome caller. Even the family
dog could not enter this holy of holies
unmolested. The moment he espied
the pictures his hair bristled and a
low growl came from his throat. Finally he slunk away crestfallen behind
the kit-chen stove.
Still another feature was characteristic of the old keepingroom, perhaps so-called because the young folks
"kept company" there on many a
winter evening. No party or friendly
gathering was complete without this
article—the red plush-covered family
album. There it lay, occupying a

Step with me into the past for a
few fleeting moments. The diningtable has j ust been emptied of the
food making up a family feast. The
guests have left the board and "repaired" to the parlor. After seating
themselves most uncomfortably in
chairs of their own choosing, they are
ready for the crowning entert ainment
of the evening — looking through the
family album.

relatives to group themselves in pairs .
Then turning the pages slowly, my
obliging mother explains in turn to
each set of folks the identity, the
family history, and sometimes the
symptoms of each and every sad,
happy, or buxom individual.
Local etiq uette demanded that the
visitors intersperse the turning of
each page with suitable exclamations
of admiration and esteem: "oh's,"
"ah's," "Isn 't he handsome," and sundry other overworked expressions
such as — "He's the spittin ' image
of his dad."
Meanwhile was made many a silent
mental reservation like — "Will the
showing never end?" or "Oh , me!
How many pages have we yet to
plough through? "
Should there be enough vitality left
in the assembled company to endure
further entertainment of this nature,
Mother had an ample store of photographs, laid many in the recesses of
some old box or trunk. These she
proceeded to feth forth. Then the
same procedure was good for another
hour or more.
Today the Victorian parlor has
gone forever. At an occasional auction , however, I am reminded of those
bygone days, when a daguerreotype ,
oil painting, or chromo is put up for
sale, heavy with the odors of the
previous century.
Indubitably this article once held
the place of honor in some ancient
keeping-room.

Before I left , he gave me his name

I probably never would have known

Before leaving the Stroudsburggame, we would like to mention briefly a bit of information we came
across in the Kutztown State Teachers weekly school publication, "The
Keystone." We'll merely quote a
paragraph of an article concerning
the recent Kutztown - East Stroudsburg basketball game. Quote—"East
! Stroudsburg was, however, handicap\ ped by the loss of its star center, Ken
: Mover , who was declared ineligible
following a protest entered by Bloomsburg State Teachers College concerning his previous participation in sports
with Muhlenberg College." 'S funny
the things one comes across in his
search for news.
Notes from here and there — The
high flying Joe Fulks of the Philadelphia Warriors j ust about caused havoc with the official scorers of the
Basket b all Associa t ion of America
last week when he threw sixty-three
markers through the hoop. The Kentuckian shattered all existing records
in his spectacular performance against
Indianapolis at Convention Hall in
Philadelphia. The big fella shot fiftyfour times from the floor , but one
must consider that he connected with
twenty-five two pointers, for an average close to fifty per cent . . . The
third annual intramural tournament
gets underway this week with some
twenty teams entered. The team to
beat, according to the experts, is
Bart's Oilers. "Hump " Reedy and
"Connie" Walther are the reported

Husky Pups Whitewash
Lycoming Jrs., 94*41
The Husky Pups continued their
winning ways last week with a decisive 94-41 victory over the Lycoming College J. V/s. It marked the
highest scoring event the locals have
put under their belts in the current
campaign.
Again it was Al Degatis and Dick
Ledyard who sparked the attack for
the victors. Degatis hit the cords for
his highest this year: 30 points; and
Dick also hit for his highest: 26.
Player-coach Degatis continued to
use the two-platoon system in this
contest, with perhaps the first-stringers being the most effective in rolling
up the score.
Jumping off to a 27-8 lead in the
first period, the victors were never
even mildly threatened, given trouble
by only one opponent, little Maltby,
who gathered a total of 14 points.

Alternately as hot and cold as a
cranky furnace , the Bloomsburg State
Teachers Huskies outlasted a scrappy
Lycoming College team last week 64
to 52.
Clicking at their best in the early
periods,* the Wishermen built up a
commanding 38-18 lead by the halftime, but saw the lead dwindle steadily as the visiting Warriors fought
back during the second half stretch.
The margin of victory would have
been a lot closer had not Smokey
Andrews contributed four timely field
goals in the closing minutes as Lycoming used a close-checking defense.
Playing cooly, Andrews took advantage of breaks in the desperate defense to drive in for lay-up shots that
broke the back of the Warrior counter-attack.
Bloomsburg started off as if it were
going to annihilate its guests as
Charley Boyer scored three buckets
and Bobby Kashner followed with a
fourth in the first two minutes, before Lycoming came through with a
shot at the basket. Bloomsburg's devastating offense continued throughout
the first half with Andrews, Ban u ll,
and Kashner helping Boyer in the
scoring department.
Jack Sowers and Gray, the two
smallest men on the Warrior" outfit
started working better after the start
of the second half and slowed down
the HusTcy attack down to a light j ab.
Sowers was particularly deadly on
shots from the side, while Gray's
brilliant passing set up many plays
for the visitors.
The closest Lycoming came to the
Huskies was eight points during the
last three minutes, as Bloomsburg's
shooting started to look exactly as it
did during the recent five-game losing
streak. Boyer cooled off fast in the
last quarter but still left the game
with a grand total of 21 points. Charley was well assisted in the point
department by "Big Walt" Banull
and Smokey Andrews.

To Seek Revenge Win
A red-hot Husky five will j ourney
to Shippensburg tonight for a basketball game that should prove to be
of no little importance as far as the
Bloomsburg basketball record and
the standings of the State Teachers
College Conference for the 1948-49
season goes. The Shippensburg outfit, coached by Harold O. Kramer,

great, is also winding up its cage
season and is gunning for this important victory over the Maroon and
Gold quintet.
Although towering Jeb Stewart,
six-seven muscleman from Chambersburg, is no longer with the Red Raiders, his place is capably filled by another sky-scraping pivotman—Bob
Chu bb , who hails from down Middletown way. Stewart is playing professional ball with the Harrisburg Senators this season and is no longer eligible for intercollegiate competition
in Teachers College ranks. Chubb
gave the Huskies plenty of trouble
in their recent meeting, and was
largely responsible for their defeat.
However , he was assisted by highscoring Jack McCellan, The Shippers
attack is geared around big Francis
Korkuch, a six-four guard from Shamokin. This is "Whitey's" first season
with the Raiders.
' The hardfighting Huskies will probably start the Kashner, Boyer, Andrews , Banull , and Kreiser combination which has been burning the
floorboards lately. Boyer has definitely regained his "eagle-eye" during the
last four games and should cause the
Shippers plenty of grief. This starting
five has very capable substitutes in
the persons of Bill Bartleson, Ed
Jones, George Lambrinos, and other
members of the squad whose improved brand of ball has caused a good
deal of favorable comment throughout the region.
Although the Maroon and Gold is
pleased with their victory over the
Stroudsburg Warriors last week, they
have the utmost respect for the Red
Raiders who already hold one decision over them this year. However,
they are confident they will bring
home the bacon and chalk another
victory up in their win column.

Huskies' Tight Zone
Def ense Proves Fatal
To Indian Rivals
In one of the hardest-fought games
to be seen this year on the Centennial
Gym hardwoods, the Huskies of B.S.
T.C. defeated the top-heavy favorite,
East Stroudsburg. The Huskies, who
have , of late, been sitting all opposition down with a loud bang, had to
fight hard for a change to beat their
old traditional rivals by a 48-38 score.
The game was very confusing as to
which team would get the golden
apple until the last quarter—at which
time the Huskies put on their familiar blaze-of-flre tactics and cinched
the get-together.
This important victory not only
evened scores with the Red Indians,
but also pushed their season record
to the 500 mark.
Led by the brilliant shooting of
Charley Boyer, the Huskies were able
to increase their lead to 10 points at
the end of the fourth quarter. Boyer
chucked five consecutive goals into
the cordtarget in an amazing display
of accuracy during the last verse of
pl aying, which consequently brought
him out as top scorer for the evening
with a list of 16 points.
The first half was a rather listless
ene, and the largest crowd of the
season soon displayed its dissatisfaction with the seemingly impotent attack of the Indians. A tight zone defense set up by the Huskies prevented
very little penetration by Stroudsburg, and, as a consequence, the first
half ended with a low score of 20-16
with the Huskies in the lead position.
In the third quarter, Stroudsburg
gave up the ghost. They simply stopped trying to draw the Huskies' defense out of position. Instead, Nick
and Dick Young began shooting from

Our 'Lounge Array ' is Showing . . .
It is neither the purpose nor the intent of this column to take up shining
armor, mount a white steed , and sally forth to slay social dragons; but unless
we all cooperate in an attempt to bring law and order back into the college
'wreck-reation' lounge, i t will be put off limits to all persons in the near
future. Unfortunately, the certain few who are responsible for this wanton
vandalism will not be singled out for individual corrective measures, and it
is to them that this appeal is made, After-dinner wrestling bouts have contributed much of the damage to lounge furniture, and some of this ancient
and honorable sport has been between mixed couples. But such pastime
should not be prohibited. Indeed, it is heartwarming to see a young lady
slip out of a shoulder-lock and hang a full-Nelson on her boy friend. Social
wrestling should be encouraged in all colleges, for it plays an important part
in the students ' cultural development. In fact , the National Association of
Furniture Manufacturers strongly recommends it. Naturally, no one would
for all the world want to deprive your lives of this simple and harmless
pleasure. But try to remember that 800 other persons will have to suffer
with you if you continue to wreck the furniture in the lounge. So if you are
out of the feather-weight class, please do your wrestling on the floor.

Take a Bow, Mrs. Beeman. . . .
One of the most original chapel programs seen in a long time was presented last week by Mrs. Beeman, who apparently had been long hiding her
light under a bushel. Her interesting lecture was rivaled only by her charming personality and delightful sense of humor. President Andruss is to be
congratulated on his ability as a talent scout. It is to be hoped , too , that the
'Faculty Follies' Mrs. Beeman spoke of will materialize sometime in the nottoo-far-distant future. It is realized, of cou rse, that her reference to such an
event was made purely in the spirit of the occasion, but it did offer the germ
of an idea that could pack Carver Hall to the rafters. The faculty may rest
assured that any such venture will be greeted by a friendly press.

The Male Animal Defined . . .
The lassies who referred to the campus menfolk as being "a group of
undernourished children " should be delighted to learn the results of a survey
conducted recently to determine exactly what women regard as the cardinal
shortcomings of men. Eighty per cent of the women listed Egotism and
Conceit as being the number one superfault. Next followed "Too much
interest in other women," and this fault got the nod from 37 per cent of the
gals. Thoughtlessness and Drinking were next in line, each having a vote of
31 per cent. Fifth , and last of the superfaults, was Irresponsibility, which
was scored by 19 per cent of the women. The common faults were: Men are
too selfish . . . too tightmouthed . . . too untidy . . . too animalistic . . . too
bossy . . . and last, but not least, too impatient. The Doghouse submits this
list without comment and with the understanding that it does not necessarily
subscribe to any of the beliefs set forth above. It is offered purely as a
Public Service feature. Next week we'll consider the 17 outstanding faults
of females. As an after thought, it seems that it might prove interesting if
we were to conduct such a survey here on the campus.

Meeting one of their toughest opponents this season, the BSTC J.V.'s
lost a 62 - 49 decision to the Penn
State Undergraduate Center, of Hazleton , last Saturday. A far cry from
the Lycoming game of a few nights
before , the locals bucked up against
a tight defense that held them to only
nine points in the first period.
Al Degatis led the Bloomsburg attack with 13 points , but received little
help from his mates as the visi tors
j umped into the lead at the beginning. A sligh t rally in the third period
pepped the losers up, but Gardner,
who was high man for the evening
with 24 points, and his mates proved
too much for the local aggregation as
they outscored the Bloomsburg club
16-10 in the fin al stanza. This marks
the third def eat for the Husky J.V.'s
as against six wins.

The warmth and sunshine of California were brought to the stage of
the BloomsbaVg High School on the
evening of February 8 in the person
of Miss Eula Beal, charming young
contralto star of the concert stage.
She was very well received , and displayed throughout the program, a
charming personality and genuine interpretation of mood and melody as
she sang to a capacity audience. The
varied program offered by the artist
served well to exhibit her fine range
of voice and her mastery of both
classical and modern composition.
Her accompanist was Mr. Irving
Owen.
First on the program was an Italian operatic aria by Rossi. From the
German composers, Brahms and Mahler, were taken the second* group.
Again in an other language of the continen t, Miss Beal sang two numbers
by Hahn , and one by Faure, closing
this part of the program with the
beautiful aria "My Heart at Thy
Sweet Voice," from "Samson and Delilah ," by Saint-Saens. As an encore ,
Miss Beal responded with "The Fair
One," by Debussy.

offices to the student body and
to the entire College Community makes it imperative that only the best candidates be selected.
(2) The size of the student
body makes it difficult to select
for nomination , on the spur of
the moment, qualified candidates.
The C.G.A. Election Board
will act as a screening unit for
determining in advance whether candidates are eligible.
Petitions should be filed for
each candidate with the signatures of five or more students
from each of the following associations: Day Women , Dormitory Women , Day Men , and
Dormitory Men.
The Election Board will then
check these candidates for eligibility, according to the C.G.A.
Constitution,
Those eligible will be nominated from the floor in assembly.
The presiding officer will also
accept additional nominations
from the floor , but these will
have to be checked later for
eligibility.
The Election Board will post
details of procedure in the near
fu ture.

Revival o/ Dorm Girls' Pet Show
Much Enthusiasm Shown
In Waller Hall Pet Party
Camels, penguins, dogs , cats, pandas, squirrels, even pigs, were among
the hundred-odd animals—all "domesticated" pets—paraded through Waller Hall , on the evening of February
9. The parade was a feature of a traditional Wall Hall hen party, revived
this year for the first time since the
war. The animals, judge d by a committee composed of Mrs. R. B. Redman , Mrs. E. T. DeVoe, and Mrs. E.
A, Reams , ranged in size from an
inch in height to three feet , and were
made of glass, rubber , papier mache,
yarn , metal , fur , wood,—and one even
was made of milk chocolate.
The party, officially called the
Dorm Girls' Pet Show, raged over the
three floors of Waller Hall, and included , along with the animal parade,
a variety show and refreshments. The
entertainment , directed by Saya Silverman , featured a solo by Marion
Pollock , a quartet composed of Shirley Robzen , Lois Pulver, Saya Silverman , and Norma Lee McCormick,
and a poetry recit ation by Ruth Finklestein. There were also solos by
Charla Herring, Marion Lake, and
Jane Kenvin. Jenny Knauer and Margaret Roberts duet-ed , and Grace
Smith and Mary Helen Morrow closed the show with song-and-dance
routines based on the old numbers
"That Old Gang of Mine , " and "All
of Mo."
Grace Smith served, as general
chairman for the event , and Ruth
Doody was in charge of the colorful
poster advertising.
The judges decisions were as follows — Funniest : first , Vernamae

Miss Edna Hazen, Director of Elementary Education at the Bloomsburg State Teachers College, r ecen t ly
reported in an interview that there
is much interest being shown among
students concerning a college reading program for freshmen. Whenever
college students are found to be failing in the general subj ects course,
their instructors invariably question
their ability to read and study properly. When test s, such as the Iowa
Silent Reading Test, or the Ohio
State Psychology Exam in at ion are
administered, it is generally found
that the subj ect is deficient in specific
reading abilities and skills. Some colleges encourage the student to enroll
in a non-credit course. This instruction improves his reading ability, usually with the result that satisfactory
adj ustment and achievement in the
regular college channel of work is increased .
Miss Hazen , commenting on the
semantic approach to reading, said ,
"We are all accustomed to the use of
the radio i n our homes, but not many
teachers have used the radio in the
classroom to aid reading. Mrs. Ruth
Weir Miller, University of Pennsylvania radio lecturer , presented ways
in which the radio is a road to reading, and proved beyond doubt that
'radio , used with wisdom and intelligence, can widen reading horizons.' "
Miss Hazen further added, "It must
be the mission of the school to direct
the listener to worthwhile programs,
and to capitalize on listening for
school attainment. Teachers have
found that radio-listening increases
demands for reading materials, and
is a strong incentive for more reading."
Pres. Andruss Speaks at Indian Missionary
Triple Cities College
President of the College, Dr. Harvey A. Andruss, addressed a Triple
Cities College Convocation , February
9, on the subject "What Business Men
Expect of College Graduates," as a
part of "Business Administration
Day " activities. Triple Cities College
is a branch of Syracuse University,
and is located in Endicott , N.Y.
Arrangements were under the direction of Professor Bertrand Broder ,
chairman of the Department of Business Administration. Professor Broder was formerly a member of the
Accounting Department in the Shrivenham American ( Army) University, at Shrivenham , Berkshire, England, which Doctor Andruss headed
during 1945.
The Convocation was followed by
a business show in the afternoon and
a dance in the evening.
On a stage draped with colorful
hand-woven coverlets, and dotted
with spinning machines, Mrs. C. R.
Beeman, art instructress at the College, spun a yarn of the old-time textile industry, in an assembly program
in Carver Hall , February 10. During
the Colonial era, cloth manufacturing
was done at home. Mrs. Beeman
demonstrated a number of the machines necessary to the spinning of
threads and yarns to be woven into
fabric for clothing and linen. Life, according to Mrs. Beeman , must have
been much less expensive for the
father of a prospective bride, since
the young maid , or spinster ("one
who spins "), was required to make
her own trousseau, and fill a chest
with linens for her new home, ou t of
nothing but a supply of raw flax and
wool. The art instructress, who is
adept in the almost-lost art, demonstrated several types of spinning
wheels, a swift, and a wheel timer.
She also explained the "process of
washing and carding of wool, eventually following the method used up to
the point of converting the wool fibers ifite spinning- yarn.
The brilliant coverlets displayed on
the stage were borrowed from residents of the district. The exhibits
were all hand-loomed, and some were
over a hundred years old.
Valentine Court
To Be Selected At
Sophomore Cotillion
Hearts will be the theme of the
Sophomore Cotillion which is to be
held in Centennial Gymnasium on
Friday evening, February 25. At a
j oint committee meeting held earlier
this week, the Valentine motif was
decided upon and ground-work was
laid for further action on the committee resolutions.
One of the outstanding features of
the evening will be the coronation of
the King and Queen of Hearts, who
will be selected by student vote from
seven couples which are to be named
by a nominating committee in the
near future. According to representatives of the sophomore class, the Royal Court and its attendants will be
chosen from the student body at
large. The identity of the king and
queen is to be kept secret until right
before the actual coronation.
Those present at the j oint meeting
were George Reck, Russell Davis,
Nancy Powell, Delphine Buss, and
Caroline Vernois.

one to be held at Dutch Hill, and the
other on the campus. A proposal to

Wash ington and Comp etition . . . .
While George Washington was President , h e won t h e con f i d ence
of his own peop le as well as the respect of foreign nations. His honesty
an d f airnes s, undoubtedly, were two valuable assets in the achievement
of these goals.
Since Washington 's time our nation has expanded greatly. With
this expansion its economic system has developed extensivel y an d h as
now b ecome a comp licated pattern of action. The controlling f orce
of this economic system is competition. Unfortunatel y, this term
competition " has come to entail unfairness, a usage which should
not b e f oun d in a d emocracy based on justi ce. It is true that all unfairness in competition cannot be eliminated , but often we consciously
disregard opportunities to expel it.
Perhaps society would be benefited if competitors, entering economic activities, would gui de their actions according to the honest
princi ples of a great President and a great Amgriean—George Washington, (mm )
What Did You Do?
Did you hear Eula Beal? Did you cl ap an d clap an d cl ap ? Were
you moved by h er unaccompanied presentation of "Were You There?"
Did you applaud as her last sweet note faded away? You did? Well ,
don 't look now , but you shouldn 't have. Of course , you appreciated
her efforts, but the fact remains that it is a violation of audience courtesy; and to some singers it is a definite effront to their ability of
int erpreting a sacred song if the audience applauds.
To show your appreciation for a sacred number presented on a
concert program , it is best to remain quiet — prolong the reverent
mood set by the soloist. A fter the artist has left the stage, the audien ce, if such be their will, may a pp laud for the usual curtain calls. If ,
however , the sacred number is part of another program -— .such as
"The Lord's Prayer " included in the commencement program — then
do not applaud at all. Wait till the program is over , then offer your
personal congratulations and thanks to the soloist. At any rate, don 't
app laud sacred numbers, Including the spirituals. If you d o , j ust remember '— your ignorance is showing, (jk)
Communism and Edu cation . . . .
In the world today, there are those governmental leaders who
uphold the doctrine that the state has a mind and will of its own. They
even say that the state has a public conscience. However, it is evident
that both will and conscience attributed to the state comes from the
minds and consciences of certain individual citizens in that state.
When freedom of thoug ht and conscience are taken away, mental
and moral life are also taken away. This is the plan of the dictatorial
ruler , who , by force or other means, stops freedom of expression. His
next action is to shape the imagination and thinking of the masses
along his own lines. Therefore, freedom and democracy die.
The Czarist regime of Russia practiced this method diligentl y.
For centuries, the Russians were kept in an abysmal ignorance of the
outside world, which was progressing intellectually, materially, and
spirituall y. Consequentl y, the Russians adopted "Nichivo ," a sort of
fatalistic psychology, characterized by a deferring of action and a
throwing of the responsibility for fate upon the hig her powers. As a
result, the corrupt regimes of the Czars were accepted by the masses
who could neither understand or pass judgment on vital political
matters.
It was from this state of affairs that the Communists "rescued"
Russia , and then later channeled it into a more ruthless type of political
tyranny.
While the Czars were content to let the people live in helpless
ignorance , the Communists set out to educate the masses — in their
own fanatical belief in the teachings of Marx and Lenin.
It cannot be denied that the Communist party has done an excellent job of modernizing Russia, but it is now faced with a peculiar
dilemma, Education is tending to sharpen intellectual curiosity; and
this is contrary to one of their pet theories <— that education tends to
undermine and destroy their vast monolithic structure.
Knowledge and understanding lead to individualism, The freethinking individual tends to make up his own mind and uphold his
personal convictions. A sufficiently-sized group of this type of Russian would soon agitate for a representative , democratic government,
In the United States, such a move on the part of the Russian populace
would be welcome news. However , any attempt on our part to promote any democratic inclination would be playing into the claws of
the Russian bear,
It would be wiser to remain morally, mentally, and militarily
strong in order that we do not encourage Russian aggression, (bj)

portraits
..
7.
by Dr . Jason Almus Russell
Family albums and walnut-framed
portraits have gone out of fashion.
Once they flourished and were popular ; but for many a year the wooden
chest smothered beneath the attic
rubbish has held these almost forgotten family treasures.
Time was when picture albums and
portraits were an essential part of
home furnishings. Glance into the
parlor of several decades ago. Its
walls fairly blazed with figured wallpaper adorned with red dahlias and
scarlet roses. Stiffly arranged against
this background were the stilted rockerless uncomfortable chairs with their
"sausage-link" columns. Adding an
air of primness, the polished whatnot, the Franklin Fireframe, and the
starched wirfdow curtains all had
their place in the scheme of things
decorative.
The crowning feature, however ,
consisted of several ancestral portraits suspended from the wall by
means of heavy braided green cord,
encased in cumbersome frames. Here
the life-sized likenesses of bewhiskered uncles and grandfathers and bashful youths and maidens looked down
upon a more fri volous and carefree
generation.
Like sentinels, these portraits were
stationed along the four walls. Like
relics of some earlier period , they
added atmosphere and local color.
Austere glances seemed to follow the
visitor and often intimidated the less
venturesome caller. Even the family
dog could not enter this holy of holies
unmolested. The moment he espied
the pictures his hair bristled and a
low growl came from his throat. Finally he slunk away crestfallen behind
the kit-chen stove.
Still another feature was characteristic of the old keepingroom, perhaps so-called because the young folks
"kept company" there on many a
winter evening. No party or friendly
gathering was complete without this
article—the red plush-covered family
album. There it lay, occupying a

Step with me into the past for a
few fleeting moments. The diningtable has j ust been emptied of the
food making up a family feast. The
guests have left the board and "repaired" to the parlor. After seating
themselves most uncomfortably in
chairs of their own choosing, they are
ready for the crowning entert ainment
of the evening — looking through the
family album.
Father urges the neighbors and
relatives to group themselves in pairs .
Then turning the pages slowly, my
obliging mother explains in turn to
each set of folks the identity, the
family history, and sometimes the
symptoms of each and every sad,
happy, or buxom individual.
Local etiq uette demanded that the
visitors intersperse the turning of
each page with suitable exclamations
of admiration and esteem: "oh's,"
"ah's," "Isn 't he handsome," and sundry other overworked expressions
such as — "He's the spittin ' image
of his dad."
Meanwhile was made many a silent
mental reservation like — "Will the
showing never end?" or "Oh , me!
How many pages have we yet to
plough through? "
Should there be enough vitality left
in the assembled company to endure
further entertainment of this nature,
Mother had an ample store of photographs, laid many in the recesses of
some old box or trunk. These she
proceeded to feth forth. Then the
same procedure was good for another
hour or more.
Today the Victorian parlor has
gone forever. At an occasional auction , however, I am reminded of those
bygone days, when a daguerreotype ,
oil painting, or chromo is put up for
sale, heavy with the odors of the
previous century.
Indubitably this article once held
the place of honor in some ancient
keeping-room.

Before leaving the Stroudsburggame, we would like to mention briefly a bit of information we came
across in the Kutztown State Teachers weekly school publication, "The
Keystone." We'll merely quote a
paragraph of an article concerning
the recent Kutztown - East Stroudsburg basketball game. Quote—"East
! Stroudsburg was, however, handicap\ ped by the loss of its star center, Ken
: Mover , who was declared ineligible
following a protest entered by Bloomsburg State Teachers College concerning his previous participation in sports
with Muhlenberg College." 'S funny
the things one comes across in his
search for news.
Notes from here and there — The
high flying Joe Fulks of the Philadelphia Warriors j ust about caused havoc with the official scorers of the
Basket b all Associa t ion of America
last week when he threw sixty-three
markers through the hoop. The Kentuckian shattered all existing records
in his spectacular performance against
Indianapolis at Convention Hall in
Philadelphia. The big fella shot fiftyfour times from the floor , but one
must consider that he connected with
twenty-five two pointers, for an average close to fifty per cent . . . The
third annual intramural tournament
gets underway this week with some
twenty teams entered. The team to
beat, according to the experts, is
Bart's Oilers. "Hump " Reedy and
"Connie" Walther are the reported
"Big Guns" of the Oilers' attack. This
promises to be well worth the long
trek to Centennial Gym , so we'll be
lookin ' for a big turnout at these
intramural games. Pick yourself a
team, and get out and give the boys
your support . . . Don't forget the
contest between Danny Litwhiler's
Valley Shawnees and the Philadelphia
Ea*gles' basketball team, composed of
members from last year's championship pro football squad. The date is
February 26, and the price is sixtyfive cents per seat.

Husky Pups Whitewash
Lycoming Jrs., 94*41
The Husky Pups continued their
winning ways last week with a decisive 94-41 victory over the Lycoming College J. V/s. It marked the
highest scoring event the locals have
put under their belts in the current
campaign.
Again it was Al Degatis and Dick
Ledyard who sparked the attack for
the victors. Degatis hit the cords for
his highest this year: 30 points; and
Dick also hit for his highest: 26.
Player-coach Degatis continued to
use the two-platoon system in this
contest, with perhaps the first-stringers being the most effective in rolling
up the score.
Jumping off to a 27-8 lead in the
first period, the victors were never
even mildly threatened, given trouble
by only one opponent, little Maltby,
who gathered a total of 14 points.

Alternately as hot and cold as a
cranky furnace , the Bloomsburg State
Teachers Huskies outlasted a scrappy
Lycoming College team last week 64
to 52.
Clicking at their best in the early
periods,* the Wishermen built up a
commanding 38-18 lead by the halftime, but saw the lead dwindle steadily as the visiting Warriors fought
back during the second half stretch.
The margin of victory would have
been a lot closer had not Smokey
Andrews contributed four timely field
goals in the closing minutes as Lycoming used a close-checking defense.
Playing cooly, Andrews took advantage of breaks in the desperate defense to drive in for lay-up shots that
broke the back of the Warrior counter-attack.
Bloomsburg started off as if it were
going to annihilate its guests as
Charley Boyer scored three buckets
and Bobby Kashner followed with a
fourth in the first two minutes, before Lycoming came through with a
shot at the basket. Bloomsburg's devastating offense continued throughout
the first half with Andrews, Ban u ll,
and Kashner helping Boyer in the
scoring department.
Jack Sowers and Gray, the two
smallest men on the Warrior" outfit
started working better after the start
of the second half and slowed down
the HusTcy attack down to a light j ab.
Sowers was particularly deadly on
shots from the side, while Gray's
brilliant passing set up many plays
for the visitors.
The closest Lycoming came to the
Huskies was eight points during the
last three minutes, as Bloomsburg's
shooting started to look exactly as it
did during the recent five-game losing
streak. Boyer cooled off fast in the
last quarter but still left the game
with a grand total of 21 points. Charley was well assisted in the point
department by "Big Walt" Banull
and Smokey Andrews.

To Seek Revenge Win
A red-hot Husky five will j ourney
to Shippensburg tonight for a basketball game that should prove to be
of no little importance as far as the
Bloomsburg basketball record and
the standings of the State Teachers
College Conference for the 1948-49
season goes. The Shippensburg outfit, coached by Harold O. Kramer,
one-time Susquehanna University
great, is also winding up its cage
season and is gunning for this important victory over the Maroon and
Gold quintet.
Although towering Jeb Stewart,
six-seven muscleman from Chambersburg, is no longer with the Red Raiders, his place is capably filled by another sky-scraping pivotman—Bob
Chu bb , who hails from down Middletown way. Stewart is playing professional ball with the Harrisburg Senators this season and is no longer eligible for intercollegiate competition
in Teachers College ranks. Chubb
gave the Huskies plenty of trouble
in their recent meeting, and was
largely responsible for their defeat.
However , he was assisted by highscoring Jack McCellan, The Shippers
attack is geared around big Francis
Korkuch, a six-four guard from Shamokin. This is "Whitey's" first season
with the Raiders.
' The hardfighting Huskies will probably start the Kashner, Boyer, Andrews , Banull , and Kreiser combination which has been burning the
floorboards lately. Boyer has definitely regained his "eagle-eye" during the
last four games and should cause the
Shippers plenty of grief. This starting
five has very capable substitutes in
the persons of Bill Bartleson, Ed
Jones, George Lambrinos, and other
members of the squad whose improved brand of ball has caused a good
deal of favorable comment throughout the region.
Although the Maroon and Gold is
pleased with their victory over the
Stroudsburg Warriors last week, they
have the utmost respect for the Red
Raiders who already hold one decision over them this year. However,
they are confident they will bring
home the bacon and chalk another
victory up in their win column.

Huskies' Tight Zone
Def ense Proves Fatal
To Indian Rivals
In one of the hardest-fought games
to be seen this year on the Centennial
Gym hardwoods, the Huskies of B.S.
T.C. defeated the top-heavy favorite,
East Stroudsburg. The Huskies, who
have , of late, been sitting all opposition down with a loud bang, had to
fight hard for a change to beat their
old traditional rivals by a 48-38 score.
The game was very confusing as to
which team would get the golden
apple until the last quarter—at which
time the Huskies put on their familiar blaze-of-flre tactics and cinched
the get-together.
This important victory not only
evened scores with the Red Indians,
but also pushed their season record
to the 500 mark.
Led by the brilliant shooting of
Charley Boyer, the Huskies were able
to increase their lead to 10 points at
the end of the fourth quarter. Boyer
chucked five consecutive goals into
the cordtarget in an amazing display
of accuracy during the last verse of
pl aying, which consequently brought
him out as top scorer for the evening
with a list of 16 points.
The first half was a rather listless
ene, and the largest crowd of the
season soon displayed its dissatisfaction with the seemingly impotent attack of the Indians. A tight zone defense set up by the Huskies prevented
very little penetration by Stroudsburg, and, as a consequence, the first
half ended with a low score of 20-16
with the Huskies in the lead position.
In the third quarter, Stroudsburg
gave up the ghost. They simply stopped trying to draw the Huskies' defense out of position. Instead, Nick
and Dick Young began shooting from

Our 'Lounge Array ' is Showing . . .
It is neither the purpose nor the intent of this column to take up shining
armor, mount a white steed , and sally forth to slay social dragons; but unless
we all cooperate in an attempt to bring law and order back into the college
'wreck-reation' lounge, i t will be put off limits to all persons in the near
future. Unfortunately, the certain few who are responsible for this wanton
vandalism will not be singled out for individual corrective measures, and it
is to them that this appeal is made, After-dinner wrestling bouts have contributed much of the damage to lounge furniture, and some of this ancient
and honorable sport has been between mixed couples. But such pastime
should not be prohibited. Indeed, it is heartwarming to see a young lady
slip out of a shoulder-lock and hang a full-Nelson on her boy friend. Social
wrestling should be encouraged in all colleges, for it plays an important part
in the students ' cultural development. In fact , the National Association of
Furniture Manufacturers strongly recommends it. Naturally, no one would
for all the world want to deprive your lives of this simple and harmless
pleasure. But try to remember that 800 other persons will have to suffer
with you if you continue to wreck the furniture in the lounge. So if you are
out of the feather-weight class, please do your wrestling on the floor.

Take a Bow, Mrs. Beeman. . . .
One of the most original chapel programs seen in a long time was presented last week by Mrs. Beeman, who apparently had been long hiding her
light under a bushel. Her interesting lecture was rivaled only by her charming personality and delightful sense of humor. President Andruss is to be
congratulated on his ability as a talent scout. It is to be hoped , too , that the
'Faculty Follies' Mrs. Beeman spoke of will materialize sometime in the nottoo-far-distant future. It is realized, of cou rse, that her reference to such an
event was made purely in the spirit of the occasion, but it did offer the germ
of an idea that could pack Carver Hall to the rafters. The faculty may rest
assured that any such venture will be greeted by a friendly press.

The Male Animal Defined . . .
The lassies who referred to the campus menfolk as being "a group of
undernourished children " should be delighted to learn the results of a survey
conducted recently to determine exactly what women regard as the cardinal
shortcomings of men. Eighty per cent of the women listed Egotism and
Conceit as being the number one superfault. Next followed "Too much
interest in other women," and this fault got the nod from 37 per cent of the
gals. Thoughtlessness and Drinking were next in line, each having a vote of
31 per cent. Fifth , and last of the superfaults, was Irresponsibility, which
was scored by 19 per cent of the women. The common faults were: Men are
too selfish . . . too tightmouthed . . . too untidy . . . too animalistic . . . too
bossy . . . and last, but not least, too impatient. The Doghouse submits this
list without comment and with the understanding that it does not necessarily
subscribe to any of the beliefs set forth above. It is offered purely as a
Public Service feature. Next week we'll consider the 17 outstanding faults
of females. As an after thought, it seems that it might prove interesting if
we were to conduct such a survey here on the campus.

Meeting one of their toughest opponents this season, the BSTC J.V.'s
lost a 62 - 49 decision to the Penn
State Undergraduate Center, of Hazleton , last Saturday. A far cry from
the Lycoming game of a few nights
before , the locals bucked up against
a tight defense that held them to only
nine points in the first period.
Al Degatis led the Bloomsburg attack with 13 points , but received little
help from his mates as the visi tors
j umped into the lead at the beginning. A sligh t rally in the third period
pepped the losers up, but Gardner,
who was high man for the evening
with 24 points, and his mates proved
too much for the local aggregation as
they outscored the Bloomsburg club
16-10 in the fin al stanza. This marks
the third def eat for the Husky J.V.'s
as against six wins.

The Sophomore Cotillion bids fair to be the big 'night out' of the year.
The sophomore class has been sparing no effort in its preparation for this

you would do well to hurry before someone else collars her off. Otherwise
you might end up by spending the evening in your room , studying history and
humming "I Wonder Who's Kissing Her Now." Then, too, don 't forget to
