In commemoration of the Twentieth Anniversary of the founding of
its Department of Business Education , the State Teachers College,
Blo omsburgr Pennsylvania , is planning to hold an Office Machines Show
in conj unction with the Annu al Business Education Contest and Clinic
May 5 and 6, 1950. Many companies
have already agre ed to display modern office equipment commonly found
in schools and small to medium sized
offices. In addition to the latest models , the companies are displ aying machines in approximately twenty-year
intervals to show the progress made
in mechanical office equipment during periods equal to or greater than
the life span of the Department. In
view of the number of machine companies who have accepted our invitation and have entered into the spirit
of the occasion, an exceedingly worthwhile display of modern and historical machines will be on hand. Represen tatives of the various companies
publishing business education textbooks will display their wares in
Navy Hall as they have in the past.
A short skit depicting an office of
the Gay Nineties is being planned by
Miss Honora M. Noyes of the Business Education Department and Miss
Alice Johnston of the Speech and
Dramatic Department who are collaborating in writing the skit .
Every eff ort is being made to bring
back the graduates and former students of the Department of Business
Education now numbering over one
thousand. Dr. Harvey A. Andruss,
the firs t director of the department
and now President of the College,
will present a short history of the
department highlighting major events and outstanding graduates of
the past twenty years. The annual
luncheon will include not only contestants and their teachers but the
graduates of the first class , outstanding graduates, representatives of the
business machines companies, textbook companies and local businessmen 's organizations. Refreshments
will be served during the machine
show and examinations.
On May fifth Mr. C. H. Henrie and
his sales classes will presen t the annual Fashion Show honoring the visiting contestants, their teachers, and
graduates in Carver Hall auditorium.
This event has grown in importance
and color until it represents one of
the finest events on the college calendar.

cordially invited to attend the commemoration exercises in Navy Hall
auditorium Saturday, May 6, 1950,
We assure you a most enj oyable and

Miss Evelyn MacGregor
To P resent Concert
Here Tues day F eb. 7

Miss Evelyn MacGregor, outsta nding contralto star of radio, concert
and opera , and Mr. Norman Kell ey,
handsome tenor , wiJJ presen t a concert in the Carver Hall Auditorium
on Tuesday night , February 7, at
8:15 p.m .
Miss MacGregor , who started her
professional career at the age of
three , ' has risen steadily and swiftly
in fame since her successful operatic
debut in Leoncavallo 's "Cavalleria
Rusticana." She then j oined the vocal
group with Andre Kostelanetz and
very shortly became the featured
soloist . Her weekly broadcasts over
a national network have enabled
millions of radio listeners to follow
her career with ease; and her frequent concert and operatic engagements , sandwiched in between her
radio commitments, have made her
known personally to thousands across
the country.
Mr. Kelley 's early musical training
was at Boston 's New England Conservatory of Music. While continuing
his studies in New York, he was
chosen by the famoua producer, Max
Reinhardt , for a part in his product ion , "The Etern al Road." Mr. Kelley
has subsequently appeared in "Blossom Time " with the baritone, John
Charles Thomas, and has made his
debut in opera with the PhiladelphiaLa Scala Opera Company. He has
appeared frequently in Canada in
both opera and concert and a year
ago made his Mexican debut in Mexico City with the La Opera de Bellas
Artistes.

With the second- semester of the
'49-'50 college year now under way,
the student rollbook tallies up, in
ro u nd n u mbers , to something like
900. I/icluded in this check-up are
seven hundred and eighty regular
students, and over a hundre d extension course enrollees. In plain words:
there are nearly nine hundred "eager
beavers" on campus from one day to
the next! That's a lot of beaver!
The campus dormitories are bulging at the seams with a capacity
house of 400. In the Waller Hall
domain , 170 women are being housed,
and in North Hall , 230 men "sack in "
nightly. The dining room is also doing a rush business with 450 mouths
to feed three times daily. This culinary workshop takes care of faculty,
dormitory students , and day men
student s who are residing in town
households.
The veteran s are slowly relinquishing their supremacy in the student
line-ups. The number of G.I.'s now
attending classes is 278. However,
news is still good for the gals. The
overall picture reads a two to one
dominance of men students over
women students in the enrollment
number.
The College now has three extension classes in Wilkes-Barre which
total twenty - odd students , and in
Hazleton , extension classes s e r v e
about 40 education-minded students.
Saturday classes at the College have
fifty teachers att ending. In comparison with last semester's teacher-inservice total , there is now an increase of over one hundred teachers
attending College sessions.

"Gallery of Glamour "
Draws Wide Attention
In College Lounge
Looking more like the foyer of a
Broadway theater than a college recreation room, the elevat ed l ou nge in
the Old Gym took on a "new look"
all of its own , with the Obiter's dazzling display of the photos of its
twelve "Coed of the Year" contestants.
Hundreds of students visited the
lounge on Tuesday and Wednesday
to view this premiere showing of the
contest photographs. Local connisseurs of feminine charm strolled leisurely through the lounge and studied
the display with the casual indifference of practiced critics. While the
welkin did not ring with cries of
unanimous approval , the maj ority of
the students gave the "Gallery of
Gl amour " an enthusiastic O.K. Even
the few dissenters agreed that the
contest "had something " and that it
gave the college community "something to look forward to." The most
flattering comment of all came from
a freshman boy who walked slowly
from picture to picture, and then
asked with mingled awe and disbelief , "Gee, do those girls go to this
college?"
It was announced by th e contest
chairman that a duplicate set of the
pictures were in the New York office
of John Robert Powers at the present time , and that a reply was expected within a week or two. It was
also indicated that there is "more to
come" so far as the contest is concern ed .
Meanwhile everyone is wondering
who B.S.T.C.'s "Coed of the Year" is
going to be. One guess is as good as
another , and that' s what makes the
"Coed Con te st " the interesting event
that it is.

L.S.A * Students Hear
Eye *Witness Account
Of Hir oshima Blast
Mr. John Macdonald , insurance
salesman from Espy, who was a
member of the Navy Intelligence
group surveying Hiroshima after the
Atomic blast in August 1945, spoke
to the Lutheran students on Monday,
January 30 at the parsonage. His
eye-witness story was very interesting. He told how , four seconds after
the bomb went off , there were 70,000
dead, 70,000 critically inj ured and
total destruction within a radius of
one and one-half miles. Mr. Macdonald then said that this was really
only a stepping stone since the perfected bomb makes the Hiroshima
one obsolete and the Hydrogen bomb,
having a destruction radius of thirty
miles, is that much more powerful.
After the supper of barbecues,
baked beans and j ello salad , the
group planned the vesper service to
be held Sunday, February 5tli , at St.
Matthew Church. John Swartz will
lead the vesper service and David
Newberry , Dick Swartz , Eleanor

avenger descending upon an earthling whose waywardness has invoked the implacable wrath of the gods.
Early in each semester we line up in the corridor , like pil grims
waiting to kiss the hol y stone of erudition. From within the four narrow walls of the bookstore conies the chime of the cash register — a
curious tin kling sound which has in recent years taken on more significance than the carillon of Old Main on too many American campuses.

But as we said , we know little enough about the details surrounding the administration of the bookstore. Doubtless there are valid

The "Student Book Mart " or used bookstore has been closed as
of today. The rules of the bookstore were, students with used books
for sale took the books to the market with his name on an envelope
on the inside cover of the book. The student was given two 3x5 cards
which he was to fill out with the name of the author , the title of the
book , the edition of the book , etc. The student then placed one of
these cards inside the book and kept the other one as a receipt.
Used books are sold at V3 or V2 off the original price of the book ,
according to the condition of the book and the owner ' s decision as to
how much the book was worth. Books which were marked at less
than $1.50 had 15c deducted from the selling price, and books marked
at more than $1,50 had 25c deducted from the selling price to cover
the cost of handling the book.
The Book Mart sponsored by Mr . Earl Gehrig was operated by
Geraldine Funk , chairman , Joyce Sluyter, Tom Anthony, and Henry
Krauser , assistants. All persons workin gin the Book Mart were paid
the maximum wage of 50c an hour. After expenses of operating the
Book Mart were deducted the proceeds were turned over to the Community Book Store.
The operation of the Book Mart was only experimental, Enoug h
emphasis can not be placed upon the necessity of student participation
to make this operation a success, Only 85 books have been placed in
the Book Mart at the time this article was written. That is far from
the number needed to completel y clear operating expenses, It was
your suggestion! Bring your books to the Book Mart and show that
your backing it!

Husky Cagers Keep Rolling with 72*67 Victory over Kings

Huskies Dump Wilke s
And Millersville in
C onsecut i ve Victor i es

After dropping their firs t five decisions, a revitalized Maroon and
Gold quintet copped two straight
verdicts , beating out Millersville in
the final seconds and drubbing a
weak Wilkes foe. The initial Husky
victory was staged in Centennial
Gymnasium January 14th, in a retu rn engagement with the Millersville Marauders. Bob Kashner dumped in th e winning field goal to break
the tie created by Walt Banull to
win the battle.
The Shellymen left the court at
half time trailing by ten points, 2717. But the determined Bloomsburg
squad returned the second half and
started the slow uphill climb to overcome the downstate teams lead. In
the previous game, Millersville defeated B.S.T.C. in an overtime canto
by four points. Kashner, Husky forward, and DePoe , th e Mara u der 's
ace each ripped the cords for twelve
points, while Banull and Jones hit
the double column for ten points.
Millersville .. 1L 16 8 8—43
Bloomsburg .. 8 9 16 12—45
In their second triumph, two nights
later, the B.S.T.C. Planksters shellacked the Wilkes College Colonels
68-38, for their highest total points
of the season. Before a small home
crowd, the basketeers rolled up a 16point lead in the first quarter , then
coasted the remainder of the game.
Only in the second stanza did the
visitors sut-scor© the Shellymen by
three points, 11-8, the Maroon and
Gold maintained a 32-19 margin at
the half. Banull, Jones , and Bartleson topped the scoring parade with
13, 12, and 11 points respectively.
Hu ff' s ten-point effort was high for
Wilkes.

State Teachers College Huskies ran
their string of victories to four on ,
Tuesday night, January 31, as they
edged out Tom Brock's Kings College

The Shellymen started out fast as
they poured in three straight field
goals in the first few minutes; but
late r, in the first quarter the Huskies
saw their lead dwindle and were behind by one point as the first quarter
died.
It was the Monarch's game during
the second f rame, at which time
Walt Banull was the -only. Husky to
swish the nets. The Brockmen built
their lead to five at the end of the
first half.
Whatever Coach Shelly said to his
boys at the half time rest period, the
Huskies made it a different game
during the second stanza. The large
crowd on hand witnessed the Huskies' surge to victory, 72-67.
Walt Banull led the Huskies in the
scoring tabs by ripping the cords for
twenty smackeroos. Byham and Bartleson chipped in with twenty -Jive
points between them. Jones and Andrews were outstanding on defense,
and Kashner and Butler did themselves up fine in the reserve roles.
Wawer led the Monarchs with 18
pointers. Murphy, McGrane , Mulvey,
and McLaughlin had 16, 12, 10 and 9

Wh at 's in a Rumor?
Did you over try to trace a rumor
to its source ? I did , and believe me
that little piece of detective work
assumed all the complexities of - the
Brinks holdup case. It all started
when I ran into one of the local
femmes coming out of the "Snake
Pit" last Tuesday afternoon. Since
she was on the verge of tears, I decided to pull a "Mr. Anthony " and
find out what the trouble was. She
explained that she had "j ust heard"
from a "Party " that the dorm men
had to sign in and out during the
second semester.
Now I'm a dorm man, and as such
I believe that I'm more entitled to be
on the verge of tears at such an
announcement than she; so I decided
to track down the "party " and find
out what was what. Such a catastroph e should not go uninvestigated.
After seven interviews with seven
different "parties," I came across an
unsuspecting young soul twiddling
his red corduroy cap between his
fingers, and reading a revised version
of the Kinsey Report—for Teachers.
I was chagrined for even thinking
that he might have had anything to
do with mongering that heart-breaking rumor. He looked so intellectual
sitting there, apparently oblivious of
everything, even the sweet strains of
"Rag Mop" emanating from the ju ke
box. Upon close questioning he explained that he was on the verge of
a revolutionary psychological discovery which delved into the pains and
passions of the school teacher, both
male and female. One phase of this
discovery took into consideration the
effects that rumors have on the average student , and how the students
react to them. Therefore , he decided
to see how far this rumor would
travel.
So successful was his experiment,
that he has now decided to conduct
another rumor campaign. What it
will consist of , no one knows. But
after talking with this particular individual, let me assure you that it
will be a "Dilly." Watch yourselves
folks, another rumor is on the way.
(But Mr., don't ever scare us like
(fd )
that again!)

Lock Haven Quintet
Here Saturday Night
A strong Lock Haven quintet will
invade Centennial Gymnasium tomorrow evening for one of the outstanding attractions of the home basketball card. Coaoh Shelly reports that
the traditional rival will provide stiff
competition for the Huskies. Battling one mutual foe, the Lock Haven
squad tripped Millersville in a close
fray as did the Maroon and Gold. A
large crowd promises to be on hand
for the tilt.

Science Clu b Officers
At a recent meeting of the Science
Club the following officers were elected: President , Norman Kline; Vice
President , Henry Krauser; Secretary,
Joyce MacDougal ; Treasurer, Nancy
Crumb, and Program Chairman , David Newberry. The club hopes to include in this semester's program a
field trip as well as many other interesting aids to scientific - minded

This civic-minded Senior has spearheaded many campus improvements
and activities, both through his column and while serving on the College

Campus Co-Ed Contest which is attracting community - wide attention.
A person who knows how to get
things done, Don is never afraid to
attempt the new, as long as he feels
it is an advancement.
The Obiter and the Olympian have
both been avenues for the exercise of

Being a novice at this racket , I
seem to be finding it quite difficult
to begin the various and sundry
ramblings to which this column is
devoted. So, with a brief explanation
off I go! It' s this way. Marie Mattis ,
who usually manages this column
with vim and vigor and vitality, is
taking a rest. Her vacation will last ,
probably, until she can no longer
stand the abuse to which her brain
is being subjected. At that time , the
pen will be wrested from my eager
hand and said brain child will be
restored to tho rightful creator of
same. Now — on to the news:
ii .s nice to see last semester s
Williamsport victims restored to the
campus not too much the worse for
their gruelling experience. The rest
of us student teachers look just as
sad, but the process of weathering is
more gradual and thus less noticeable. Along with the welcome back
goes a fond farewell to the last shipment of business recruits to Williamsport. Good luck and best wishes.

Did you know that elevators have
sex ? This amazing scientific fact is
based on extensive studies of the behavior patterns of that elegant vehicle cajoled and cussed by "Art ,"

the elevator is of masculine gender.

Now that the 'DogTiouse has barked
for the last time , the reading public
of B.S.T.C. says "thanks" to Don
Butcofsky for his weekly sessions on
this and that. With the howls of
some 36 issues still ringin g in our
ears, it won 't be easy to forget the
many campus activities instituted
through the efforts of this j ournalist.
Among several advancements is the
1
recent "Coed of the Year " contest. '
Now this reporter offers another
plan. With our grid squad receiving
national attention , Miss Doed being
selected by the world famous John
Robert Powers, how about our own
campus Hit parade ? If you cringe
when certain platters spin on the
lounge j uke box , thj s may be your
opportuni ty to remedy tho situation.
By balloting on the 16 top tunes of
the week , th e '."nost popular records
in order of the voting could be placed
on the machine. The plan will not
only raise the music standard , but
also satisfy everyone 's tune taste.
Latest flash from the lounge has it
that the pi^oposed Pinochle Parlee
will definitely be held sometime this
semester. We find by observation
that an advanced clue was related to
some factions , and new signal devices, not scheduled , are those extra ordinary body movements now taking place at the "bitter " card tables.
Singing a popular ditty at bidding
time might well help the partner
know what trump should be. For instance , "You 're Breaking My Heart"
or something a little more subtle
such as "Two Clubs Have I" is a substantial hint.
Enough said on this subject for the
present , except that it may become
one of the greatest campus movements since some shouted "This one's
on me."
Whatever happened to all those
"proposed plans" for sunnier Sundays
on College Hill ? Chiefly and briefly,
something to do besides sit and sleep
and sit some more . . . By the way,
three big splashes to those responsible for Saturday Open House at the
gym . . . Congratulations to the local
cagers and Mr. Shelly for their four
straight floor successes over powerful opposition. For a change, student
spirit has been good , but could be
better. So let's get behind the B-ball
boys and start them on a real win
streak . . . With the Obiter sales
drive coming up, here's a hint to
start saving those pennies from cigarette packs to buy one of the best
annuals in an age. An advance peek
at the proof has this corner sold.
