College Placement Survey
Reveals Favorable Record

Under the leade rship of Don Butcofsky, recently elected prexy of the
Senior class, the graduating class of
l95O hcld a meeting in Carver Audi^ at 2 P.M., Monday, October
torium
31.
Preliminary to the discussion of
pressing business, Mr. Edward T. DeVoe of the f aculty, gave a brief of
the '50 Obiter as it 'has been planned
and designed by Editor Joe Curilla.
Mr. DeVoe mentioned the approximate cost of the college annual and
the measure that would be taken to
meet this obligation.
The two main points of controversy that were brought before the Senior class were: (1) the question of
whether or not the Seniors graduating in January shall have a Senior
Ball independent of the regular May
affair, and (2) whether or not the
graduating class should have a group
class picture taken that would include both the students graduating
in May and those graduating in January .
Voting was placed before the students , and the results indicated that
a secession movement might easily
be on the verge of actuality . If the
trend of events keeps rolling forward
in the same channel, it will be the
first time in the history of the ColI lege tha t any graduating class has

this State is playing in the improvement of teachers on a state and
country-wide basis. He also spoke of
the work being done to improve the
standards of in-service and pre-service teachers by the PSEA Commission on Teacher Education and Professional Standard s, of which he is
chairman . The occasion was the

The 31st annual conference of the

was held on Thursday and Friday,
November 3 and 4, at St. Matthew 's
Lutheran Church, ' Bloomsburg. Miss
Miriam Lawson, county superintendent of the organization , reported a
registration well in excess of 300.
The theme of the conference was
"The Sermon On the Mount." Discussion leaders were chosen by the
County Youth Council officers and
leaders. Among the ministers from

Class of J 49 Boasts
Large Empl oyment
In Elementary Field
The annual placement survey letter has been mailed to the 225 graduates of the Class of '49, in an effort
to determine the breakdown on graduates in teaching, graduate work,
business, and other occupations.
Inf ormation already accumulated
on 187 members of the Class of '49
indicates that 79% are teaching, 10%
doing gradu ate work, and slightly
over 10% are employed in business.
Data on the remaining 32 students is
expected to raise the ratio of graduates placed in teaching to eight out
of ten. These figures are encouraging,
considering the large number of
graduates, the general shortage of
elementary teachers, and the oversupply of secondary teachers of English and Social Studies. Business
teachers in Shorthand and Typewriting are still in demand , but other
subj ects in the business field seem to
be well supplied .
The breakdown according to fields
is as follows : In elementary, 50 out
of 52 are teaching ; in business, out of
104 graduated , 55 are teaching and
21 are engaged in business; in secondary, 35 out of 69 graduates are
teaching. Business placement to date
is about 70%.
That the College can boast a very
favorable placement record is shown
by three surveys made over the last
18 years. A survey of over a thousand *
graduates before 1940 shows a 77%
placement; a five-year survey covering 1941-45 shows an 80% placement;
and a three-year survey made in 1948
indicates an 83% placement. These
figures are based on surveys made
after long periods of time had elapsed after graduation . It is expected
that in future years the record of
emp loyment will grow.

Annual Halloween Fete
A happy host of heterogeneous hobgoblins hovered outside the Dining
Room doors on Monday evening, October 31. It was the Hallowe'en P ar ty
and for m ost of th e st u dents , t his
meant doffing the usual garb of dressy dinner outfits for the more colorful and individualistic styles of the
moment—slacks, sweaters, blue j eans,
pallid shirts, and you-name-it.
At 5:45, when the doors were opened , the crowd spilled into the Dining
Room , only to find, that Miss Thayor 's personal spooks and goblins had
shuffled the table numbers so that
everyone except the lucky football
players, went scattering to find their
respective tables. To add to the festive occasion , the room was decorated with orange and black streamers,
while each table had a pumpkin as a
centerpiece. The waiters , from stations nearly hidden behind cornstalkcovered posts, and dressed in attractive and appropriate costumes, served
the delicious raeal of chicken - with all - the - trimmings, including the
pumpkin pie.

A passing glance at the magazine rack in the library latel y
would probably bring on a double
take from anyone even remotely
interested in periodical litera ture.
The glaring empty spaces where
the varnished wood of the rack
shows between the few magazines
left mig ht be an indication of an
upswing of interest in literary
bouillabaise. Such an interest is
meritorious, of course, but it is not
a justification for removing magazines from the library to augment
private libraries. Nor is it a valid
reason for monopolizing magazines.
We do not accuse anyone of
pilfering or willfully monopolizing
periodicals. The problem is probably only one of thoug htlessness.
It is extremel y easy, when one is
burdened w i t h myriad assignments , to forget consideration for
others. It is easy to lose sight of
the fact that library magazines are
in constant demand for reports in
nearly every course offered when
the individual is concerned only
with getting a required report.
It is the individual' s duty, as a
member of a democratically organized c o m m u n i t y , to observe
»¦ those considerations as they apply
to community property. It is his
duty as a patron of a public library —¦ any public library. And it
should be his desire, when he
stops to consider that his classmates , r o o m m a t e s , a n d closest
friends may be waiting for the
magazine he is using.

SAMMY the SHMOO
by Max Kaplan
From out of the past comes the
story of Sammy the Shmoo. Sammy
wasfn 't an ordinary, con ventional
shmoo, not in the beginning, anyway.
He didn't bother his head about the
trivialities of life ; he didn 't care
whether he had eggs for breakfast ,
or pickled pigs ' feet. It made no difference to him whether it snowed in
June or sunshined in December. No,
nothing like that ever phased him in
the least. You see, Sammy was an
idealistic shmoo. He went along from
day to day, dreaming of a Utopian
paradise where shmoos from all over
the world could get together and
bask in the sunshine of aesthetic intellectualism.
But one day Sammy 's dreams all
came tumbling down. It all started
when he made the startling discovery
that it cost money to live ; that to
make money, he had to work; and
that to work in a world of workers,
he had to compromise his idealistic
viewpoint — with one of practical
So Sammy was started on the road
to conformity . He didn 't like it at
first , but he had to go through the
motions to insure economic security.
He even acquired an education in the
process. For now when Sammy went
to breakfast , he ate the mostest for
the loastest; and now he noticed
whether the weather was weathering
for or against him; for now it made
a difference to his pocket-book.
Well , Sammy knocked around the
country for a number of years, fin ally
settled down and raised a family . All
his idealistic ideas had been suppressed , but he still had a few worthwhile
though ts floating around in the back
of his head. Sammy had mellowed
with age, and his ideas had matured
with him. He had come to realize
that though it was nice to dream ,
this was a world of doers ; and
th ough he was forced into conformity , he had come to appreciate this
conformity as both practical and
reasonable. And he conformed intellig en t ly, so that his individuality was
not engulfed in a sea of ultra - mediocrity. Why he even played the guitar
once in a while , and attended a Paul
Robeson concert. I could end this by
saying that Sammy was a happy
shmoo, except for the fact that after
all his years of experience , and some
amount of introspection , Sammy had
come to understand that , at last, he
was no longer a shmoo.
Are you a Shmoo ? Remember
Sammy.

cheating. Many and varied opinions
were brought forth , both by students
and several faculty members. The
chief comments were those which
pointed out the various means used
by students who cheat. Objections
were raised by students with regard
to the practice of some instructors
who give the same test to separate
sections of a class which meet at
different hours. This was felt to give
the later group an advantage over
the group which first took the examination. Another criticism was that
the overall schedule of testing is not
organized, thereby resulting in some
students being responsible for taking
several examinations in a short period of time, even in a single day .
Other remarks concerned the amount
of credit given to test grades. The
possibilities of encouraging "open
book" tests or of having regular
daily or weekly qui.?: periods, with
only 'several long examinations , were
also mentioned.
Dr. Andruss, in a few brief remark s, announced that in the future
no instructor should use the same
test in two separate sections of any
class subj ect. Dr. North asked for an
informal vote in regard to the matter of employing the method of quiz
periods for determining the grades of
students. Opinion was divided on this
question. Adding a closing comment,
Mr. Hoch suggested that one remedy
for the problem might arise from the
development of better study habits
by the students.
Several remarks were made during
the course of the meeting stressing
the fact that the problem of cheating
is , in the final analysis, a matter of
responsibility of the individual. In
this way, the discussion was summed
up.
Closing the meeting were remarks
by John Czerniakowski, who is at
present chairman of a committee
which is investigating the possibility
of providing feature motion pictures
for the benefit of the college community. Mr. Czerniakowski . ..told of
the success met so far and asked for
cooperation and suggestions from the
assembly with regard to types of attractions and dates preferred.
With no further business at hand ,
the meeting was dismissed by President Wagner.

Pianist Walter Hatchek then came
onto the stage for his individual performance. He led off with Chopin 's
"Et ude in E Flat Maj or," and "Fantasie I m p r o m p t u " (I' m Alway s

audien ce spellbound with his next

Tenor Attilio Baggiore, the most
colorful performer of the group, and

talents to sing when they presented

"Water Boy," followed by what turned out to be one of the most pleasing
songs of the evening: a light , airy
tune named "The Big Brown Bear. "
The likable group closed with Oley

When the concert formally ended ,
the satisfied and applauding audience

Stat istics an Stuff
by Pat Kringe
There are statistics , and then there
are statistics. Some are interesting
and others j ust are. For instance,
let' s take the number of students enrolled in this Institution of Higher
Learning (you just have to walk up
more steps to get to your classes at
B.S.T.C). There is a tot al enrollment
of 828 souls. Of this figure 559 are
men , the rest, women. Dividing 559
men by 269 women, if you can do it,
you come up with the discovery that
there are 2.08 men for each Fern.
That' s not bad odds, is it, gals ? But
then look at it this way — one you
don 't want , and the other one doesn 't
want you. So where are you then ?
Th at's easy. You j ust have .08 of a
man. Which brings us to the question
of j ust what is eight hundredths of a
man ? Does that mean that you and
twelve other girls all date him at the
same time, or do you take turns ?
This is a moot question.
Let's look at this from the masculine side of the ledger. Each man
is entitled to exactly .48 of a girl.
Not even half a, girl for the poor
boys. But if you consider the fact
that there are 303 veterans in school
it is obvious that each girl is entitled
to 1.13 of a vet, which is a very interesting fact — as far as facts go.
All these decimals confuse the issue. Now wouldn't it be simpler for
the administration to balance the enrollment so that these figures would
come out even ?
?
Hwo Repokts
The most significant occuran re at
the meeting held on Monday, October
31, was the split of the senior class
into two distinct groups, a January
group and a May group. Each of
these' groups will function as an independent class so far as graduation
exercises are concerned.
There will be a separate commencement and ball held in January,
wi th the final arrangements /"or each
depending on how they may be fitted
into the January Senior Week caljendar. The majority of the January
grad uates favored Tuesday night,
January 17, for the ball , and Thurs.day night , Jan u ary 19, for the commencement exercises. Both of these
tentative dates, howe v er, are subj ect
to revision if they conflict with the
college calendar. Since the Cortege
Activities Budget has provided only
for a May baccalaureate service, a
sp ecial dispensation shall be required
to arrange this service for the January graduates.
Th e entire class approved the plan
to include the Obiter cost in the class
budget, and a two dollar individu al
assessmen t for a class m emorial was
also approved. A budget committee
composed of the class advisor and the
class officers will meet this week to
draw up the final budget. Because of
the split in the class, there will be
separate class dues for the January
and May graduates. The January
dues will be higher due to the fact
that the January graduates are conducting separate graduation exercises. This is to be expected since the
January class is considerably smaller,
and since the aggregate expense is to
be shared by few members.
The class voted to have the senior
class picture taken in January. The
cost of this picture will be included
in the class budget and will be covered by the class dues. This matter will
be studied carefully to determine
whether there will be a necessity for
renting gowns in both January and
May. If there is, the cost may make
the move prohibitive.
All committees concerned with
January graduation will be posted on
the senior bulletin board in the near
future. At a later date the May committees will also be posted. It is
imperative that all chairmen contact
Mr. Rygiel, Room 24, Navy Hall , at
their earliest possible convenience.
All chairmen will also contact the
individual members of their committees and inform them of their duties.
This is necessary in order that the
class may achieve full organization
at the earliest possible date and be
prepared to conduct class business
with dispatch and efficiency.
A special committee will be appointed to study the various possibilities for a class gift. Their recommendations will be submitted to the
class at a future meeting. The individual assessment of 236 class
members will establish a memorial
fund of $472.00. Class members should
submit their suggestions to this committee.
This report will appear from time
to time in the Maroon and Gold as a
means of disseminating information
of general class interest. However, it
is to be understood that the normal
vicissitudes of college life will place
many Items subject to future revision
or change. You will bo informed of
these revisions or changes as they
occur. Matters of vital interest will
be submitted to the class for discussion at regular meetings before any
changes or revisions are made.

that it took two -of those scoring
rarities, saf eties , to finally overpower
a game Western Pennsyl vania team
I by a score of 11-7.
Incidentally, that was the yfcar we
last played Rider College, of Trenton ,
N. J. Both Rider and Clarion were
t stricken from the local schedule because school officials figured the trips
were too long. Wilkes, Kings, and
Lycoming replaced these two schools,
giving the school a nine game season.
Officials also thought that Rider
didn't give our teams the opposition
that made good spectator football. In
two successive y e a r s Bloomsburg
scored more than 40 points against
the Trenton, school.
The calibre of the three new
schools' performances on the present
card hasn 't been the best football
seen in these parts, but Kings and
Lycofninf are j ust coming into their
own as colleges and football powers.
Wilkes, as we all know by now, must
have something on the ball, and
definitely is a worthy opponent. Last
season , Kings was drubbed by BSTC
26-0, and Lycoming fell 47-0. Kings
was downed this year 21-0 and the
score of tomorrow 's game in all probability will lean heavily toward the
Bloomsburg side of the Scoreboard.
Perhaps it would be a good idea to
try to get Rider back on the schedule , barring the possibility of rejection because of the long trip. East
Stroudsburg makes the trip, and
found out last week that the New
Jersey school is out of the post-war
rut they were in three years ago.
Stroud fell to Rider 19-7.
In answer to city sports editor's
heckling of their "vanishing point of
spirit ," the Hobart , N. Y., college
sports editor replied, "We have been,
in deeper ruts than we are in now.
From 1928 through 1931 Hobart football teams dropped 27 consecutive
games. But they bounced back to
have better years. Spirit doesn't disappear in an institution such as ours
because of a few years of football
victory drought."
In answer to any person's heckling
of Bloomsburg's "vanishing point of
spirit," we can only say that we have
been in worse ruts than we are In
now. Our school spirit was at a low
ebb many times, particularly during
the war. Winning football teams
don't disappear in an institution such
as ours because of a few years of
school spirit drought. Just about the
reverse of the New York school's predicament, isn't it? Wo have a winning football team, but lack any
amount of school spirit. Hobart Is
having a rough time with its footbal l
teams, but still backs thorn up and
has a common fooling of school spirit.

BSTC Gridders Travel

? Undefeated in their last six starts ,
and victorious in eighteen of the last
nineteen contest s, the Bloomsburg
Husky gridders will travel to Lycoming College tomorrow in an attempt
to further prove that B.S.T.C. grid
supremacy is here to stay. The kickoff is slated for 2 p.m. at the Williamsport High School Stadium.
Lycoming, 64-6 losers to Wilkes
Coll ege , is expected to throw the
works at the locals in an attempt to
stop the Huskies and gain revenge
for last year 's 47-0 drubbing at Athletic Park.
The Redman gridders are in top

bumps to be overcome before gametime.

Rod Morgans
Last Saturday 's victory over Kutztown exhibited eleven outstanding
players on the field for the entire
sixty minutes. On the basis of his
all-around performance, Rod Morgans has been chosen Player of the
Week. Rod must have been expecting
trucks to come through the holes he
helped open in the Kutztown line.
This contest marked, in all probabili t y , the finest game of football the
big tackle from South Williamsport
has played this season.
Dan Parrell, Bob Leshinski and
Elmer Kreiser also turned in excellent performances in helping the
Huskies roll to their sixth straight
victory,

Statistics Reveal
Huskies Sixth In
State Scoring
Prior to last week's contes t a t
K ut ztown , the Husky gridders were
sixth in state scoring. Kutztown was
first with a total of 157 points. The
Husky machine has rolled up a total
of 153, including the 27-14 victory
over the Golden Avalanche. Kutztown now has 171, and no announcement has been made by statisticians
as to whether the Berks County team
has relinquished the claim to being
the highest scoring collegiate team in
the state or whether they have been
replaced.
The caliber of Kutztown's opposition may be one factor in their scoring sprees as they have failed to roll
up more th an one touchdown on only
one occasion, in th e opener with
Shippensburg. The score of that tilt
was 6-6. The Huskies scored four
times against the Golden Avalanche ,
as many T.D.'s as had been scored
against them in their previous victory streak. Kutztown has given up
a total of 45 point s to opposing clubs
as compared to 68 gath ered by
Bloomsburg opponents.
Last year 's Husky squad allowed
only 19 points during the season's
nine games, 12 scored by Millersville
and 7 by Shippensburg. However,
last year 's undefeated eleven scored
only 183 points , 123 of these against
t h e comparatively - weak Wilkes,
K i n g s , Lycoming, and Kutztown
squads. Only the Mansfield and
King 's games this year were termed
easy victories. Millersville held the
Huskies to 7 points in the first half
of their clash.
Bloomsburg 's position in state scoring has not as yet been announced ,
but with last week's four touchdowns
and a "breather" this weekend
against Lycoming, 64-6 losers to
Wilkes last week, B.S.T.C. is sure to
improve its standing, not only in
scoring but in gridiron supremacy.
The Husky Pups mimicked their
big brothers last week by starting a
j unior-sized winning streak of their
own. By annexing a hard-earned 6-0
victory over previously undefeated
Scranton University JV's, th e local
JV ' s, most of them frosh , brought
their record to two wins against one
loss , having dropped the season 's
opener at Lock Haven.
Fred Denesevich rammed over the
goal from the one in the early minutes of the fourth quarter to register
th e lone tally and bring the Pups
their second straight victory on Mt.
Olympus. The big fullback set up the
score only a few moments earlier
when he broke loose for 48 yards,
fin ally being hauled down on the
S c r a n t o n twenty - four. Thurston
caught a pass for 15, Denesevich
plunged for three, a penalty put the
ball on the one , and then the fullback
pushed it across. The try for the
extra point was fumbled.
Scranton felt Bloomsburg soil under their f eet only twice, driving
once in the first period to the Bloom
40 and again in the third quarter to
the vi ct ors ' 37. On the other hand ,
B.S.T.C. went on successive drives to
the Scranton 18, 6, 46 , 35, and at the
final whistle were on the visitors' 28.
(C ontinued on page 4)
Husky Booters Suffer
Victory Famine;
Third Consecutive Loss
:
Possibly finding the pressure of a
victory streak too great , the B.S.T.C.
soccer squad lost a tough 2-1 decision
to Lock Haven several weeks ago
aft er rolling up three straight wins.
Now the Husky booters are finding
the pressure of a losing streak just
as hard to overcome.
Against possibly one of the nation 's
finest soccer teams, th e loca l kickers
dropped a 3-0 decision last Friday on
Mt. Olympus. Howard University did
the honors, and performed even better than the advance notices claimed.
It was the second straight shutout
posted against the Shelly - coached
aggregation , the first a 4-0 loss to
West Chester. The locals' record now
stands at three wins and three losses.
After a scoreless first quarter, the
boys from Washington did their stuff
and scored once each in the remaining periods, scoring the last tally
with only seconds to play.
The Huskies will attempt to crash
the win - column this Saturday at
Indiana State Teachers College in
the first Western Pennsylvania athletic contest a Bloomsburg team has
played since the 1947 Clarion football
tilt.
Victors Pile Up Impressive
Total of 19 First Downs in
Keeping S.T.C. Slate Clean
Kutztown watched its name being
crossed off the lists of the unbeaten
last Saturday as the B.S.T.C. Husk- "
ies proved that their bites are worse
than their barks. The Bloomsburg
gridders returned home with their
sixth consecutive victory and were
still at the top of the heap in the
Teachers College rank.
The final score was 27-14, but statistics showed the locals dominated
throughout, despit e leaving the field
at halftime with the Scoreboard reading 14-14. The Huskies rolled overth e G olden Aval an che for 19 first
downs , as compared to the losers
nine. 373 yards were gained on the
ground , while Kutztown had trouble
getting 200, seventy of these on Larry Motko wski' s sprint early in the
first period. The losers had three of
their eleven pass attempts intercepted and five were grounded.
Drawing first blood, the lads from
Berks County went exactly 99 yards
in three plays, capped by Motkowski' s dash. This only served to arouse
the Huskies as it took only an exchange of punts and six more plays
before the score was knotted. Parrell,
Lang, and Kriss shared ball - toting
responsibilities, with Kriss going the
final 17 yards on his now-famous
reverse.
Elmer Kreiser started a 50 yard
march late in the second period by
catching a pass good for 15. Kriss
and Parrell carried for a first down,
with "Dapper " covering the final 17
y ards in four successive tries. Ed
Tavalsky made it 14-7 with a perfect
placement, and two minutes remained in the half.
Kutztown went 82 yards in these
two minutes, with a Motkowski-toDiNire pass covering the last 43
y ards to paydirt. Bobby Snaith
matched Tavalsky 's kick to make it
14-14.
The second half found Kutztown
pushing to the Huskies 45. Forced
to punt , the Golden Avalanche's lin e
couldn't keep Elm Kreiser from
throwing his frame in front of Varacolla's kick. Bloomsburg recovered
on the homesters' 35. Stalled on the
12, the locals lost the ball on downs,

We Need a 'Wonder Drug ' .. .
Each year about the time the leaves are being rake^ from the campus
and the dry goods stores are featuring red flannels , someone gets the tatt ered and frayed "cheating buck" out of the 'mothballs and puts it back into
circulation. The students pass it to the faculty, and the faculty passes it
back to the students. While these quarterback sneaks and laterals are being
put into operation , a squad of cheerleaders composed o£ members of an
ethics class do gymnastics on the sidelines and chant time-tested truisms
in locomotive fashion. True enough , cheating is a problem ; but it seems that
it is more a symptom than a disease, and the best way to get rid of symptoms is to treat the disease — if you can find it. Perhaps our, philosophy of
education places entirely too much emphasis upon grades and too little upon
actual intellectual growth. We are taught to take the firs t letter from the
alphabet and worship it. We place it upon u pedestal and make offerings of
burnt midnight oil. Consequently, even the so-called "A" students will occasionally cheat; and when they do, what chance do the average students of
the class have ? Our educational practices are not consistent with our educational aims. Perhaps if we were to treat the d-isease the symptoms would
take care of themselves.

Females and the Fine Arts . . .
Some lassies from Waller 3 have made the claim that their smoker is
truly a thing of beauty and a j oy forever. According to their report it is a
place where one may enjoy one's Chesterfield or Bull Durham in an atmosphere that is strictly esthetic. Lining the walls are masterpieces of art ,
reproduced with a color fidelity that rivals ,the original. There the girls
gather of an evening to discuss the relative merits of the Florentine School
and the 16th century Flemish Masters. Michelangelo and Titian have their
followers, as do Rubens and Rembrandt. Perhaps reports will be forthcoming from the second and fourth floors. Meanwhile, the men 's section of
Waller Hall continues to exhibit works of more modern origin, with the
balance being heavily in favor of Petty and Varga. However, while Waller
may house the art treasures of the campus, North Hall is definitely the
music center.

The Lions Get the Bird . . .
In former days two eagles occupied the positions from which Leo and
Leona now guard the approach to Senior Walk. The eagles reigned supreme
for a number of years and continued to gaze defiantly westward even though
their wings had become badly chipped. Then Leo and Leona came upon the
scene , and it was proposed that they be stationed at the top of the steps.
This suggestion met with bitter opposition from patriotic-minded campus
citizens, who maintained that the British Lion should not be elevated above
the American Eagle. The problem was finally solved by retiring the eagles
and putting the lions in their place at the bottom of the steps. Two lights
were later installed at the top of the steps , and a problem of international
signifi cance was solved for all time.

Going to the Dogs . . .
Women's fashions have claimed fur and feathers as necessities of life ,
and now they have gone to the dogs and borrowed the only thing a cog has
to offer — his collar. These "dog callars " are being used to bring the neck
line of milady's dress nearer her chin. For awhile the trend had been in the
other direction , then Fido came along to make his contribution , and it'h as
become fashionable'to go literally to the dogs. Perhaps the M&G fashion
editor will shed some light on the matter in a future article. The idea would
have tremendous possibilities if each girl would put her name and phone
number on the collar.

College Placement Survey
Reveals Favorable Record

Under the leade rship of Don Butcofsky, recently elected prexy of the
Senior class, the graduating class of
l95O hcld a meeting in Carver Audi^ at 2 P.M., Monday, October
torium
31.
Preliminary to the discussion of
pressing business, Mr. Edward T. DeVoe of the f aculty, gave a brief of
the '50 Obiter as it 'has been planned
and designed by Editor Joe Curilla.
Mr. DeVoe mentioned the approximate cost of the college annual and
the measure that would be taken to
meet this obligation.
The two main points of controversy that were brought before the Senior class were: (1) the question of
whether or not the Seniors graduating in January shall have a Senior
Ball independent of the regular May
affair, and (2) whether or not the
graduating class should have a group
class picture taken that would include both the students graduating
in May and those graduating in January .
Voting was placed before the students , and the results indicated that
a secession movement might easily
be on the verge of actuality . If the
trend of events keeps rolling forward
in the same channel, it will be the
first time in the history of the ColI lege tha t any graduating class has

Class of J 49 Boasts
Large Empl oyment
In Elementary Field
The annual placement survey letter has been mailed to the 225 graduates of the Class of '49, in an effort
to determine the breakdown on graduates in teaching, graduate work,
business, and other occupations.
Inf ormation already accumulated
on 187 members of the Class of '49
indicates that 79% are teaching, 10%
doing gradu ate work, and slightly
over 10% are employed in business.
Data on the remaining 32 students is
expected to raise the ratio of graduates placed in teaching to eight out
of ten. These figures are encouraging,
considering the large number of
graduates, the general shortage of
elementary teachers, and the oversupply of secondary teachers of English and Social Studies. Business
teachers in Shorthand and Typewriting are still in demand , but other
subj ects in the business field seem to
be well supplied .
The breakdown according to fields
is as follows : In elementary, 50 out
of 52 are teaching ; in business, out of
104 graduated , 55 are teaching and
21 are engaged in business; in secondary, 35 out of 69 graduates are
teaching. Business placement to date
is about 70%.
That the College can boast a very
favorable placement record is shown
by three surveys made over the last
18 years. A survey of over a thousand *
graduates before 1940 shows a 77%
placement; a five-year survey covering 1941-45 shows an 80% placement;
and a three-year survey made in 1948
indicates an 83% placement. These
figures are based on surveys made
after long periods of time had elapsed after graduation . It is expected
that in future years the record of
emp loyment will grow.

shuffled the table numbers so that
everyone except the lucky football

A passing glance at the magazine rack in the library latel y
would probably bring on a double
take from anyone even remotely
interested in periodical litera ture.
The glaring empty spaces where
the varnished wood of the rack
shows between the few magazines
left mig ht be an indication of an
upswing of interest in literary
bouillabaise. Such an interest is
meritorious, of course, but it is not
a justification for removing magazines from the library to augment
private libraries. Nor is it a valid
reason for monopolizing magazines.
We do not accuse anyone of
pilfering or willfully monopolizing
periodicals. The problem is probably only one of thoug htlessness.
It is extremel y easy, when one is
burdened w i t h myriad assignments , to forget consideration for
others. It is easy to lose sight of
the fact that library magazines are
in constant demand for reports in
nearly every course offered when
the individual is concerned only
with getting a required report.
It is the individual' s duty, as a
member of a democratically organized c o m m u n i t y , to observe
»¦ those considerations as they apply
to community property. It is his
duty as a patron of a public library —¦ any public library. And it
should be his desire, when he
stops to consider that his classmates , r o o m m a t e s , a n d closest
friends may be waiting for the
magazine he is using.

SAMMY the SHMOO
by Max Kaplan
From out of the past comes the
story of Sammy the Shmoo. Sammy
wasfn 't an ordinary, con ventional
shmoo, not in the beginning, anyway.
He didn't bother his head about the
trivialities of life ; he didn 't care
whether he had eggs for breakfast ,
or pickled pigs ' feet. It made no difference to him whether it snowed in
June or sunshined in December. No,
nothing like that ever phased him in
the least. You see, Sammy was an
idealistic shmoo. He went along from
day to day, dreaming of a Utopian
paradise where shmoos from all over
the world could get together and
bask in the sunshine of aesthetic intellectualism.
But one day Sammy 's dreams all
came tumbling down. It all started
when he made the startling discovery
that it cost money to live ; that to
make money, he had to work; and
that to work in a world of workers,
he had to compromise his idealistic
viewpoint — with one of practical
So Sammy was started on the road
to conformity . He didn 't like it at
first , but he had to go through the
motions to insure economic security.
He even acquired an education in the
process. For now when Sammy went
to breakfast , he ate the mostest for
the loastest; and now he noticed
whether the weather was weathering
for or against him; for now it made
a difference to his pocket-book.
Well , Sammy knocked around the
country for a number of years, fin ally
settled down and raised a family . All
his idealistic ideas had been suppressed , but he still had a few worthwhile
though ts floating around in the back
of his head. Sammy had mellowed
with age, and his ideas had matured
with him. He had come to realize
that though it was nice to dream ,
this was a world of doers ; and
th ough he was forced into conformity , he had come to appreciate this
conformity as both practical and
reasonable. And he conformed intellig en t ly, so that his individuality was
not engulfed in a sea of ultra - mediocrity. Why he even played the guitar
once in a while , and attended a Paul
Robeson concert. I could end this by
saying that Sammy was a happy
shmoo, except for the fact that after
all his years of experience , and some
amount of introspection , Sammy had
come to understand that , at last, he
was no longer a shmoo.
Are you a Shmoo ? Remember
Sammy.

cheating. Many and varied opinions
were brought forth , both by students
and several faculty members. The
chief comments were those which
pointed out the various means used
by students who cheat. Objections
were raised by students with regard
to the practice of some instructors
who give the same test to separate
sections of a class which meet at
different hours. This was felt to give
the later group an advantage over
the group which first took the examination. Another criticism was that
the overall schedule of testing is not
organized, thereby resulting in some
students being responsible for taking
several examinations in a short period of time, even in a single day .
Other remarks concerned the amount
of credit given to test grades. The
possibilities of encouraging "open
book" tests or of having regular
daily or weekly qui.?: periods, with
only 'several long examinations , were
also mentioned.
Dr. Andruss, in a few brief remark s, announced that in the future
no instructor should use the same
test in two separate sections of any
class subj ect. Dr. North asked for an
informal vote in regard to the matter of employing the method of quiz
periods for determining the grades of
students. Opinion was divided on this
question. Adding a closing comment,
Mr. Hoch suggested that one remedy
for the problem might arise from the
development of better study habits
by the students.
Several remarks were made during
the course of the meeting stressing
the fact that the problem of cheating
is , in the final analysis, a matter of
responsibility of the individual. In
this way, the discussion was summed
up.
Closing the meeting were remarks
by John Czerniakowski, who is at
present chairman of a committee
which is investigating the possibility
of providing feature motion pictures
for the benefit of the college community. Mr. Czerniakowski . ..told of
the success met so far and asked for
cooperation and suggestions from the
assembly with regard to types of attractions and dates preferred.
With no further business at hand ,
the meeting was dismissed by President Wagner.

onto the stage for his individual performance. He led off with Chopin 's

When the concert formally ended ,

Stat istics an Stuff
by Pat Kringe
There are statistics , and then there
are statistics. Some are interesting
and others j ust are. For instance,
let' s take the number of students enrolled in this Institution of Higher
Learning (you just have to walk up
more steps to get to your classes at
B.S.T.C). There is a tot al enrollment
of 828 souls. Of this figure 559 are
men , the rest, women. Dividing 559
men by 269 women, if you can do it,
you come up with the discovery that
there are 2.08 men for each Fern.
That' s not bad odds, is it, gals ? But
then look at it this way — one you
don 't want , and the other one doesn 't
want you. So where are you then ?
Th at's easy. You j ust have .08 of a
man. Which brings us to the question
of j ust what is eight hundredths of a
man ? Does that mean that you and
twelve other girls all date him at the
same time, or do you take turns ?
This is a moot question.
Let's look at this from the masculine side of the ledger. Each man
is entitled to exactly .48 of a girl.
Not even half a, girl for the poor
boys. But if you consider the fact
that there are 303 veterans in school
it is obvious that each girl is entitled
to 1.13 of a vet, which is a very interesting fact — as far as facts go.
All these decimals confuse the issue. Now wouldn't it be simpler for
the administration to balance the enrollment so that these figures would
come out even ?
?
Hwo Repokts
The most significant occuran re at
the meeting held on Monday, October
31, was the split of the senior class
into two distinct groups, a January
group and a May group. Each of
these' groups will function as an independent class so far as graduation
exercises are concerned.
There will be a separate commencement and ball held in January,
wi th the final arrangements /"or each
depending on how they may be fitted
into the January Senior Week caljendar. The majority of the January
grad uates favored Tuesday night,
January 17, for the ball , and Thurs.day night , Jan u ary 19, for the commencement exercises. Both of these
tentative dates, howe v er, are subj ect
to revision if they conflict with the
college calendar. Since the Cortege
Activities Budget has provided only
for a May baccalaureate service, a
sp ecial dispensation shall be required
to arrange this service for the January graduates.
Th e entire class approved the plan
to include the Obiter cost in the class
budget, and a two dollar individu al
assessmen t for a class m emorial was
also approved. A budget committee
composed of the class advisor and the
class officers will meet this week to
draw up the final budget. Because of
the split in the class, there will be
separate class dues for the January
and May graduates. The January
dues will be higher due to the fact
that the January graduates are conducting separate graduation exercises. This is to be expected since the
January class is considerably smaller,
and since the aggregate expense is to
be shared by few members.
The class voted to have the senior
class picture taken in January. The
cost of this picture will be included
in the class budget and will be covered by the class dues. This matter will
be studied carefully to determine
whether there will be a necessity for
renting gowns in both January and
May. If there is, the cost may make
the move prohibitive.
All committees concerned with
January graduation will be posted on
the senior bulletin board in the near
future. At a later date the May committees will also be posted. It is
imperative that all chairmen contact
Mr. Rygiel, Room 24, Navy Hall , at
their earliest possible convenience.
All chairmen will also contact the
individual members of their committees and inform them of their duties.
This is necessary in order that the
class may achieve full organization
at the earliest possible date and be
prepared to conduct class business
with dispatch and efficiency.
A special committee will be appointed to study the various possibilities for a class gift. Their recommendations will be submitted to the
class at a future meeting. The individual assessment of 236 class
members will establish a memorial
fund of $472.00. Class members should
submit their suggestions to this committee.
This report will appear from time
to time in the Maroon and Gold as a
means of disseminating information
of general class interest. However, it
is to be understood that the normal
vicissitudes of college life will place
many Items subject to future revision
or change. You will bo informed of
these revisions or changes as they
occur. Matters of vital interest will
be submitted to the class for discussion at regular meetings before any
changes or revisions are made.

SPORTS
Jayvee Gridders Down
Undef eated Scranton U
Eleven with 6-0 Tally
by Chris Klincdlns t
Pitt' s last minute safety, coming
on a blocked kick , gave the Western
Pennsylv ania university a slim 22-21
verdict over previo usly undefeated
Penn last Sat urday. This reminds us
of the 1947 trip the local grid forces
made to Clarion State Teachers College. Bloomsburg had lost only to
Mansfield and Shippensburg, b o t h
heartbreakers, and no one expected
supposedly - weak Clarion to give
B.S.T.C. much trouble. It turned out
that it took two -of those scoring
rarities, saf eties , to finally overpower
a game Western Pennsyl vania team
I by a score of 11-7.
Incidentally, that was the yfcar we
last played Rider College, of Trenton ,
N. J. Both Rider and Clarion were
t stricken from the local schedule because school officials figured the trips
were too long. Wilkes, Kings, and
Lycoming replaced these two schools,
giving the school a nine game season.
Officials also thought that Rider
didn't give our teams the opposition
that made good spectator football. In
two successive y e a r s Bloomsburg
scored more than 40 points against
the Trenton, school.
The calibre of the three new
schools' performances on the present
card hasn 't been the best football
seen in these parts, but Kings and
Lycofninf are j ust coming into their
own as colleges and football powers.
Wilkes, as we all know by now, must
have something on the ball, and
definitely is a worthy opponent. Last
season , Kings was drubbed by BSTC
26-0, and Lycoming fell 47-0. Kings
was downed this year 21-0 and the
score of tomorrow 's game in all probability will lean heavily toward the
Bloomsburg side of the Scoreboard.
Perhaps it would be a good idea to
try to get Rider back on the schedule , barring the possibility of rejection because of the long trip. East
Stroudsburg makes the trip, and
found out last week that the New
Jersey school is out of the post-war
rut they were in three years ago.
Stroud fell to Rider 19-7.
In answer to city sports editor's
heckling of their "vanishing point of
spirit ," the Hobart , N. Y., college
sports editor replied, "We have been,
in deeper ruts than we are in now.
From 1928 through 1931 Hobart football teams dropped 27 consecutive
games. But they bounced back to
have better years. Spirit doesn't disappear in an institution such as ours
because of a few years of football
victory drought."
In answer to any person's heckling
of Bloomsburg's "vanishing point of
spirit," we can only say that we have
been in worse ruts than we are In
now. Our school spirit was at a low
ebb many times, particularly during
the war. Winning football teams
don't disappear in an institution such
as ours because of a few years of
school spirit drought. Just about the
reverse of the New York school's predicament, isn't it? Wo have a winning football team, but lack any
amount of school spirit. Hobart Is
having a rough time with its footbal l
teams, but still backs thorn up and
has a common fooling of school spirit.
That guy that writes Prediction

BSTC Gridders Travel
To Lycoming
? Undefeated in their last six starts ,
and victorious in eighteen of the last
nineteen contest s, the Bloomsburg
Husky gridders will travel to Lycoming College tomorrow in an attempt
to further prove that B.S.T.C. grid
supremacy is here to stay. The kickoff is slated for 2 p.m. at the Williamsport High School Stadium.
Lycoming, 64-6 losers to Wilkes
Coll ege , is expected to throw the
works at the locals in an attempt to
stop the Huskies and gain revenge
for last year 's 47-0 drubbing at Athletic Park.
The Redman gridders are in top
shape, with only minor bruises and
bumps to be overcome before gametime.

Rod Morgans
Last Saturday 's victory over Kutztown exhibited eleven outstanding
players on the field for the entire
sixty minutes. On the basis of his
all-around performance, Rod Morgans has been chosen Player of the
Week. Rod must have been expecting
trucks to come through the holes he
helped open in the Kutztown line.
This contest marked, in all probabili t y , the finest game of football the
big tackle from South Williamsport
has played this season.
Dan Parrell, Bob Leshinski and
Elmer Kreiser also turned in excellent performances in helping the
Huskies roll to their sixth straight
victory,

Statistics Reveal
Huskies Sixth In
State Scoring
Prior to last week's contes t a t
K ut ztown , the Husky gridders were
sixth in state scoring. Kutztown was
first with a total of 157 points. The
Husky machine has rolled up a total
of 153, including the 27-14 victory
over the Golden Avalanche. Kutztown now has 171, and no announcement has been made by statisticians
as to whether the Berks County team
has relinquished the claim to being
the highest scoring collegiate team in
the state or whether they have been
replaced.
The caliber of Kutztown's opposition may be one factor in their scoring sprees as they have failed to roll
up more th an one touchdown on only
one occasion, in th e opener with
Shippensburg. The score of that tilt
was 6-6. The Huskies scored four
times against the Golden Avalanche ,
as many T.D.'s as had been scored
against them in their previous victory streak. Kutztown has given up
a total of 45 point s to opposing clubs
as compared to 68 gath ered by
Bloomsburg opponents.
Last year 's Husky squad allowed
only 19 points during the season's
nine games, 12 scored by Millersville
and 7 by Shippensburg. However,
last year 's undefeated eleven scored
only 183 points , 123 of these against
t h e comparatively - weak Wilkes,
K i n g s , Lycoming, and Kutztown
squads. Only the Mansfield and
King 's games this year were termed
easy victories. Millersville held the
Huskies to 7 points in the first half
of their clash.
Bloomsburg 's position in state scoring has not as yet been announced ,
but with last week's four touchdowns
and a "breather" this weekend
against Lycoming, 64-6 losers to
Wilkes last week, B.S.T.C. is sure to
improve its standing, not only in
scoring but in gridiron supremacy.
The Husky Pups mimicked their
big brothers last week by starting a
j unior-sized winning streak of their
own. By annexing a hard-earned 6-0
victory over previously undefeated
Scranton University JV's, th e local
JV ' s, most of them frosh , brought
their record to two wins against one
loss , having dropped the season 's
opener at Lock Haven.
Fred Denesevich rammed over the
goal from the one in the early minutes of the fourth quarter to register
th e lone tally and bring the Pups
their second straight victory on Mt.
Olympus. The big fullback set up the
score only a few moments earlier
when he broke loose for 48 yards,
fin ally being hauled down on the
S c r a n t o n twenty - four. Thurston
caught a pass for 15, Denesevich
plunged for three, a penalty put the
ball on the one , and then the fullback
pushed it across. The try for the
extra point was fumbled.
Scranton felt Bloomsburg soil under their f eet only twice, driving
once in the first period to the Bloom
40 and again in the third quarter to
the vi ct ors ' 37. On the other hand ,
B.S.T.C. went on successive drives to
the Scranton 18, 6, 46 , 35, and at the
final whistle were on the visitors' 28.

Husky Booters Suffer
Victory Famine;
Third Consecutive Loss
:
Possibly finding the pressure of a
victory streak too great , the B.S.T.C.
soccer squad lost a tough 2-1 decision
to Lock Haven several weeks ago
aft er rolling up three straight wins.
Now the Husky booters are finding
the pressure of a losing streak just
as hard to overcome.
Against possibly one of the nation 's
finest soccer teams, th e loca l kickers
dropped a 3-0 decision last Friday on
Mt. Olympus. Howard University did
the honors, and performed even better than the advance notices claimed.
It was the second straight shutout
posted against the Shelly - coached
aggregation , the first a 4-0 loss to
West Chester. The locals' record now
stands at three wins and three losses.
After a scoreless first quarter, the
boys from Washington did their stuff
and scored once each in the remaining periods, scoring the last tally
with only seconds to play.
The Huskies will attempt to crash
the win - column this Saturday at
Indiana State Teachers College in
the first Western Pennsylvania athletic contest a Bloomsburg team has
played since the 1947 Clarion football
tilt.
Victors Pile Up Impressive
Total of 19 First Downs in
Keeping S.T.C. Slate Clean
Kutztown watched its name being
crossed off the lists of the unbeaten
last Saturday as the B.S.T.C. Husk- "
ies proved that their bites are worse
than their barks. The Bloomsburg
gridders returned home with their
sixth consecutive victory and were
still at the top of the heap in the
Teachers College rank.
The final score was 27-14, but statistics showed the locals dominated
throughout, despit e leaving the field
at halftime with the Scoreboard reading 14-14. The Huskies rolled overth e G olden Aval an che for 19 first
downs , as compared to the losers
nine. 373 yards were gained on the
ground , while Kutztown had trouble
getting 200, seventy of these on Larry Motko wski' s sprint early in the
first period. The losers had three of
their eleven pass attempts intercepted and five were grounded.
Drawing first blood, the lads from
Berks County went exactly 99 yards
in three plays, capped by Motkowski' s dash. This only served to arouse
the Huskies as it took only an exchange of punts and six more plays
before the score was knotted. Parrell,
Lang, and Kriss shared ball - toting
responsibilities, with Kriss going the
final 17 yards on his now-famous
reverse.
Elmer Kreiser started a 50 yard
march late in the second period by
catching a pass good for 15. Kriss
and Parrell carried for a first down,
with "Dapper " covering the final 17
y ards in four successive tries. Ed
Tavalsky made it 14-7 with a perfect
placement, and two minutes remained in the half.
Kutztown went 82 yards in these
two minutes, with a Motkowski-toDiNire pass covering the last 43
y ards to paydirt. Bobby Snaith
matched Tavalsky 's kick to make it
14-14.
The second half found Kutztown
pushing to the Huskies 45. Forced
to punt , the Golden Avalanche's lin e
couldn't keep Elm Kreiser from
throwing his frame in front of Varacolla's kick. Bloomsburg recovered
on the homesters' 35. Stalled on the
12, the locals lost the ball on downs,

We Need a 'Wonder Drug ' .. .
Each year about the time the leaves are being rake^ from the campus
and the dry goods stores are featuring red flannels , someone gets the tatt ered and frayed "cheating buck" out of the 'mothballs and puts it back into
circulation. The students pass it to the faculty, and the faculty passes it
back to the students. While these quarterback sneaks and laterals are being
put into operation , a squad of cheerleaders composed o£ members of an
ethics class do gymnastics on the sidelines and chant time-tested truisms
in locomotive fashion. True enough , cheating is a problem ; but it seems that
it is more a symptom than a disease, and the best way to get rid of symptoms is to treat the disease — if you can find it. Perhaps our, philosophy of
education places entirely too much emphasis upon grades and too little upon
actual intellectual growth. We are taught to take the firs t letter from the
alphabet and worship it. We place it upon u pedestal and make offerings of
burnt midnight oil. Consequently, even the so-called "A" students will occasionally cheat; and when they do, what chance do the average students of
the class have ? Our educational practices are not consistent with our educational aims. Perhaps if we were to treat the d-isease the symptoms would
take care of themselves.

Females and the Fine Arts . . .
Some lassies from Waller 3 have made the claim that their smoker is
truly a thing of beauty and a j oy forever. According to their report it is a
place where one may enjoy one's Chesterfield or Bull Durham in an atmosphere that is strictly esthetic. Lining the walls are masterpieces of art ,
reproduced with a color fidelity that rivals ,the original. There the girls
gather of an evening to discuss the relative merits of the Florentine School
and the 16th century Flemish Masters. Michelangelo and Titian have their
followers, as do Rubens and Rembrandt. Perhaps reports will be forthcoming from the second and fourth floors. Meanwhile, the men 's section of
Waller Hall continues to exhibit works of more modern origin, with the
balance being heavily in favor of Petty and Varga. However, while Waller
may house the art treasures of the campus, North Hall is definitely the
music center.

The Lions Get the Bird . . .
In former days two eagles occupied the positions from which Leo and
Leona now guard the approach to Senior Walk. The eagles reigned supreme
for a number of years and continued to gaze defiantly westward even though
their wings had become badly chipped. Then Leo and Leona came upon the
scene , and it was proposed that they be stationed at the top of the steps.
This suggestion met with bitter opposition from patriotic-minded campus
citizens, who maintained that the British Lion should not be elevated above
the American Eagle. The problem was finally solved by retiring the eagles
and putting the lions in their place at the bottom of the steps. Two lights
were later installed at the top of the steps , and a problem of international
signifi cance was solved for all time.

Going to the Dogs . . .
Women's fashions have claimed fur and feathers as necessities of life ,
and now they have gone to the dogs and borrowed the only thing a cog has
to offer — his collar. These "dog callars " are being used to bring the neck
line of milady's dress nearer her chin. For awhile the trend had been in the
other direction , then Fido came along to make his contribution , and it'h as
become fashionable'to go literally to the dogs. Perhaps the M&G fashion
editor will shed some light on the matter in a future article. The idea would
have tremendous possibilities if each girl would put her name and phone
number on the collar.
