President Harvey A. Andruss recently announce that bids will be
opened on May 18 for the replacement of Long Porch at Waller Hall ,

Plans and specifications for the
work have been received and , according to an announcement received
from Harrisburg, the proj ect must
be completed before October 15.
Th e chief addition to the exterior
appearance of the College will be in
the construction of a new porch to
replace the historic Long Porch. This
new porch will connect the two wings
of Waller Hall and will extend within the present court.
This construction will consist of
fifteen brick archways facing Second
Street and seven brick archways extending into the court. The roof of
the new porch will be slate with copper gutters and spouting, and wooden cornice. The columns will be brick
with metal banisters and the floor
will be of quarry tile.
Access to the street will be by
means of two sets of steps at the end
of a platform leading to the street
level, instead of the present broad
stairs. Five of the archway spaces extending in the court will be covered
with leaded plat e glass. The present

Designers are trying their

us look utterly feminine.
Let's take a closer look .at what is
coming up for this summer.
For afternoon wear picture a black
linen strapless dress topped with a
redincote of black organdy or dotted
swiss. If you prefer white, wear a
white organdy with long full sleeves ,
a Peter Pan collar, and a full skirt.
This dress makes a good basic dress
because the undergarments can be
changed with the wearer's mood. If
you really want to set your beau back
on his heels add a pair of linen pumps
that match the slip.
After-five dresses can combine materials and colors. How do they differ? First in length and second in
bareness. Try using a crushed organdy over lavendar flaille. Cut the neck
low, the skirt full , and swath the
waist with a wide sash. Wear pert
white gloves and a pretty smile.
In the evening at a summer dance ,
organdy and other transparents again

REFLECTIONS I
ON A DUMP
by Hildegard Hurm *

A massive hill of debris,
A pit of murky water slimy with
scu m
From which rise peaks of battered
cans, a rotting auto tire, and the
burnt out embers of a fire long
dead—
A disgusting spectacle to those who
can see only the destruction and
ruin,
Hear only the lap of the polluted
water and the intermittent scurrying of thriving rats,
Smell only the offensive odor of corrosion and th e loathesome stench
of the stale water.
But wait! Do not turn away with
aversion. Look! Yes, look again
And see the strang fascination that
lures the child to this drab and
unattractive spot.
An ugly sight, you say,
But see that j agged, floating bottle—
'tis a message sent by far off
pirates and is caught warily between the shattered timbers of a
sunken ship.
And there is the sandy beach with
buried treasures hidden far beneath its grains.
i
That old clock, whose face has long
since been erased by wind and
storm,
Whose steady hands moved faithfully
until they could no longer move
Now lies amidst the pile to show that
even time must have an end.
And over there, the ornate, massive
chandelier, a sorry relic of a bygone age.
But lo! The glowing splendor is
resumed and soon transforms the
sunken hole into a dazzling ballroom, if you but look.
The cracked and stringless violin
begins to play a stately minuet, if
you listen ;
And the smell of perfumes and of
snuff pervades the lordly atmosphere, if you but sniff.
That bracelet yonder with its massive
holes, which once imbedded rare
and perfect jewels
Is filled again with the sun 's most
brilliant rays, which shame the
proudest stone.
But as the sun begins to sink , the
glitter and romance fade with it ,
and only the wretchedness remains.
These old discarded remnants of the
living have each a story—a marvelous one, if we but care to listen.
That rattle might have been a king's
or beggar 's; the bottles might belong to a merry crowd or perhaps
to men who live on but know not
why—a thousand unexplained mysteries, and to each a solution,
Donations from the eternal parade of
life will replenish the store of
meager and luxuriant articles.
Just a dump, you say !
Ah, then you are truly old!
* Miss Hurm, a former B.S.T.C. student, Is now attending Pennsylvania
State College.

One of the guys in North Hall told
me that eating raw onions is good for
a cold, so I went downtown and
bought a pound. After getting comfortably settled in my working
clothes (that' s my paj amas) with my
American Lit book in front of me, I
began to experiment with this skunk
of the lily family, and I' ve come to
th e conclusion that there is an art
to eating an onion. If you bite into it
indiscriminately, like you would an
apple, you 're going to suffer. But if
you sort of sneak up on it , and gently
nibble at it layer by layer , the illeffects can be reduced to a minimum.
Of course, I'm only a beginner at
this; some of these girls around here
could tell you a lot more about it
th an I can. They really know their
onions ; they 've been eating them raw
for years. I don 't "know what there is
about a raw onion that's appealing
to women , but whatever it is, some of
these chicks are really hepped on raw
onion sandwiches and hamburgers
"with." I don 't know , maybe it' s a
good antidote for that gleam in her
escort's eye, or perhaps they like the
aroma. Maybe they ought to bottle it
— "Stiff-Whiff No. 5," or something.
One thing is sure—onions and women
don 't mix. But then again , I su ppose
it' s all a matter of taste.
The onion is a member of the lily
family, a nd "Doc " Kuster always
says that if you cant afford to send
your girl lilies, send her a corsage of
onions. It may not be such a bad idea
at that , especialy if youlr girl is the
"rugged" type that tikes raw onions.
She can wear them at the dance, and
eat them after the dance. It' s pr actical.
I wonder j ust what there is in an
onion that produces such an impressive effect. It might be that onions
are rebellious individuals who don 't
wish to be eaten. But that' s getting a
little far-fetched, and anyway, it was
all Charley Robert's fault , because he
used to raise them. Onions , I mean.
I offered John Trimble an onion , but
he declined. He says they get in his
mouth. I offered Norman Kline one ;
he j ust declined.
Anyway, I ate tw o of th e Alli u m
Cepas, burned my tongue, and had a
good cry ; but I'll be doggoned if I
st ill d on 't have that blasted cold ! I
wonder—one of the guys told me that
alcohol is good for a cold—no , I better not; I've got too much homework
t o do , and dri nking makes my thinking stinking. Maybe I j ust better
drink a lot of water and get a lot of
sleep—that' s what Charley says. How
about that , G eorge?

We are , today, witnessing the birth
of a phenomenon which will be
known fif t y or on e h u ndred years
hen ce a s the "Roosevelt Myth. "
Thousands of articles and hundreds
of books have already been written
about the late President Franklin D.
Roosevelt and his "New Deal. " Sin :e
his death in 1945, everyone from his
cabinet members to his cook have
written of their experiences while associated with him. Every day a new
angle on some phase of his life or a
new theory on some part of his program is set forth in magazine or
book . From such a great abundance
of pro and con writing the evolution
of a myth is inevitable.
Not since Lincoln has a president
called forth so much comment and so
aroused the fancy and interes t of the
American people as has Roosevelt.
Whether they agree or disagree as to
Roosevelt's policies, most people seem
to have concluded that he was a
great president , worthy of ranking
with Lincoln and Washington. And
most people seem interested in reading about Roosevelt and his administration as witness the financial success of the books dealing with them.
Of all Roosevelt books thus far
published, the Pulitzer Prize winning
ROOSEVELT AND HOPKINS by
Robert Sherwood seems to be, according to the critics, the best. (In^
cidentally, for those of us who are
sweating and screaming over a two
or three thousand word term paper ,
Sherwood's preface should prove interesting. In it he gives some idea
of the tremendous amount of research and documentation which goes
into a work of this sort. )
Already one national magazine has
brought out a sensational article purporting to show that Roosevelt had
been in ill health long before his
death. This type of thing is fodder
for the myth makers. It is a point
which will be argued with such fervor
on both tsides that fact and fiction
will intermingle and the whole situation will become an enigmatic tangle. The Yalta Conference , and what
did or did not take place there, is
another point open for debate—and
more fodder for the myth makers.
All myths are supported and carried along by numerous connected
myths which have sprung up along
the way. The late Lloyd Lewis wrote
a book , M YTHS AFTE R LINCOLN ,
which deals entirely with myths
which have grown directly out of the
great Lincoln myth. Similarly, the
growing Roosevelt myth has already
served as the impetus for other related myths.
Probably the most apparent of this
later type is the myth springing up
about Harry Hopkins. Some contend
that Hopkins gave his health and life
in attempting to carry out his Ideals
as to what would be best for the
United States. Others say that Plopkins was an ambitious spinner of
political webs. Possibly time will give
the answer.
It might bo interesting for all of us
to jot down our present estimate of
Roosevelt and his ideals. Then , in
about twenty or thirty years we
could see if history agreed or disagreed with our verdict.

2 Husky Gridders To Play for Pay; Diamondmen Undefeated
IN SPORTS . . .

by Wayne Von Stetten

The Bloomsburg Husky Nine is
really ttie talk of the campus because , at this writing, the men of
Coach Bob Redman have come home
with the bacon in all six encounters
against top-fl igh t opposition. It's n/ ')t
too difficult to ascertain what's im
the mind of every Husky looter —
dreams of an undefeated baseball
season to accompany the perfect
gridiron campaign and consequently
the most successful year in the sports
history of Bloomsburg. With the fine
pi tc hing, timely hitting, and steady
fielding that the Huskies are receiving, a perfect season could well become a reality. Here 's rootin ' for
you, f ell as!
While talking about baseball , it is
interesting to note that with the continued good graces of the weatherman, the diamond squad should get
in most of their encounters. With the
season already half over, only one
contest has been rained out—compared to three and four postponed frays
at this time in previous years. Yes,
it looks like a banner year for baseball at B.S.T.C.
By this time, the entire campus is
aware that two of its outstanding
football men have agreed to terms
with the Pittsburgh Steelers of the
National Professional Football League. These boys, of course, are Tom
Don an , the greatest tackle in our
history, and Frank Luchnick , the
standout guard from Mt. Carmel.
There is little your writer can say
about these fellas — we all know
their records here at Bloomsburg and
the outstanding contributions they
have made to the school while members of our athleti c teams. We can
only wi sh them conti nue d success in
their quest for prominence in the
play-for-pay game.
Incidentally, Tom and Frank will
be kept stepping this summer. Both
boys are planning to attend summer
sessions and the call for fall practice
in the second week in August will
afford little time for a summer vacation. The Steelers play their first
game August 28 at Forbes Field in
Pittsburgh against the Green Bay
Packers in an exhibition battle for
the benefit of the Pittsburgh Youth
Recreation Fund.
In a recent interview with Tom
Donan , the big gridder informed this
writer that he expects to be in the
best shape of his already successful
career. This bit of pre-season training
might be a feasible move on Tom 's
part, for we hear that the Steelers
are sticklers for conditioning.

Outstanding Linemen To
Report for Practice in
Second Week of August
Two of the outstanding linemen of
this year's championship football
team have recently signed contracts
with the Pittsburgh Steelers of the
National Football League. Tom Donan , 220 pound tackle from Columbia,
and Frank Lu chni ck , 235 pound Mt.
Carmel guard, put their signatures
on the contracts last April 29 and forwarded them to John Micheloson
Steeler coach.
Don an , who played one season at
Lebanon Valley before serving in the
E.T.O during World War II, was
chosen for the tackle spot on the AllPennsylvania team, All-State Teachers College eleven, All-East, and Little All-American teams.
Luchnick , a graduate of Mt. Carmel Catholic High School, played with
the first string varsity of Coach Redman 's powerhouse for two years. Because of his aggressive offensive and
d ef en sive pl ay, he won a position on
the All-State Teachers College honor
team. Luchnick, a Business Education student , is a veteran of three
years service in the Marine Corps
during World II.
Donan and Luchnick expect to report to practice during the second
week in August when the Steelers
open their pre-season drills.

Straight Victory 12-4
To Remain Undefeated
The Huskies made it four out of
four last Saturday with a 12-4 win
over the Marauders from Millersville on the Mount Olympus diamond.
Mike Evans, the big gun from Myers High School in Wilkes-Barre, had
easy sledding all the way. To demonstrate his slugging power, he slapped
out a four-bagger in the seventh inning.
Millersville started the game with
two runs in firs t, but Bloom tallied
three runs in their half of the second
with three singles and a double by
Hummel.
Four more runs came ac:*oss in the
fifth when Clair Mensinger banged
out a big triple.
This afternoon the Mountaineers
of Mansfield will entertain the Huskies in the third S.T.C. game of the
season. BSTC
