Holds Mock Interview
For Future Teacher s

C.G.A. Candidates Give Campaign
Speeches In Tuesday's Assembly

._ _^^ ^_fc^ _^_^ ^ .^

Mr. Kenneth L . Terry, superintenden t of the Berwick Public Schools,
visited the elementary curriculum
materials class on Thursday, March
9 at 1 o'clock.
Mr. Terry, upon the request of the
class and teacher, Miss Edna J. Hazen , held two mock interviews in order to demonstrate techniques used
by superintendents in questioning
prospective teachers. The first "applicant" was Frances Cerchiaro. Miss
Cerchiaro was interested in a first
grade vacancy. Both this interview
and the one following in which M urray Hackenburg applied for a sixth
grade position , stressed the importance of sincerity and polite interest.
Mr. Terry quizzed the applicants concerning their student-teaching experFrom tl\e M & G flies comes this photo of a 1921 gym class here, at the

linary problems, their ideas on salary
and most important , their reasons for
wanting to teach. At the end of the
interview each applicant was invited
to ask questions pertaining to the
system. Mr. Terry also answered
questions from members of the class
and his straight - forward answers
were of inestimable value to the
prospective position-seekers. It is interesting to note that Mr. Terry's
practical instruction re - emphasized

Edwards Productions, another cast of
campus talent presented a much enj oyed assembly program to the college community last week. A new
theme prevailed this time as "St at ion
BSTC" took to the air waves from
its "studio" in Carver Hall Auditorium. Sponsor of the program was the
"Nitecap Brewing Company," makers
of that "smoo-o-o-o-o-th" drink.
Ben Burness, master of ceremonies
for the "Variety Hour," was introduced by Charles Edwards. Following the broadcast plan , the show
opened with a "word from the sponsor " as the emcee offered a demonstration of the sponsor's product to
the radio and studio audience , acclaiming its many characteristics and
high qualities to his listeners.
Edgar "Sonny " Coleman was first
of the talent as he sang two numbers
in his mellow baritone voice. His
selections were "The Very Though t
of You " and "Happy Times." Accompanying him at the piano was Jean
Ruckle.
A pleasant surprise was in store
next as Tom Jones, a sophomore , displayed a talent he has been hiding
for the past year and a half. His
marimba rendition of "Gloworm " was
enthusiastically received, Piano accompaniment was provided by Dick
Wagner.
Joe Curilla and Aleki Comuntzis, a
familiar campus vocal duo , were next
on the program. Their offering was
"You Are Free." Mondo Comuntzis
was their accompanist.
Another "word from the sponsor"
was provided by emcee Burnoss , who
appeared before the studio audience
in a chef's attire with a table of
ingredients before him from which
he attempted to demonstrate the process by which his sponsor's product
was prepared. Mixing together various portions from the flasks before
him, a cloud of smoke arose , bringing
to an end the commercial,

Institute for Social Progress . . .
The Summer Institute for Social Progress at Wellesley, Massachusetts invites you to attend its sessions. The National Student Association is offering scholarships awarded not on a scholastic basis but
upon recommendations as to citizenship and interest in social affairs.
U.S.N.S.A. will be awarded at least five such scholarships — each
scholarship covers all expenses for tuition , room an d b oar d (b ut not
transportation ) for the twelve day conference , July 1-15 , 1950 , on the
campus of Wellesley College.
This institute uses the college classrooms, dormitories and
groun ds to allow adults an opportunity to share their thoughts on the
controversial issues of the day. These groups of people include persons f ro m .China , Poland , A u stria , In dia and other countries. Those
from this country come from luxurious offices , f rom tenant f armers
shacks in the deep South , from crowded school rooms, from small
town civic cl u b , home kitchens, pulpits and medical clinics .
The Institute has b'een a growing concern for over fifteen years.
It has led its members to new sources of reading and to partici pate in
group endeavors in their own communities. It brings home fresh
realization that the power of citizenship is ours in thes e United States
if we believe we have it and have the will and ability to use it.
Certain ly there is someone in this school interested in such a fine
opportunity. Wh y not app ly for the scholarship? If interested, please
see Lois Dzuris or Norman Kline, co-chairmen of the N.S.A. campus
committee. The applications must be in by May 1st , so don ' t delay.

Toda y is St. Patrick 's Day . . .
Saint Patrick , t h e patron saint o f I r el an d , has been honored and
the anniversary of his death , March 17, 493 , has been celebrated in
America since early times , an d in many ways.
The story of Saint Patrick is an interesting one. According to
Roman
Catholic authorities he was born at Kil patri ck , near Dumbar.
ton , Scotland , in the year 387, When he was about sixteen years of
age , he was carried off by a band of Irish marauders. While in captivity for six years , he tended the herds of a high priest. During this
time he became subject to religious emotion and beheld visions which
encouraged him to escape. In 433, after some study, he went to Ireland as a missionary. He is now celebrated as Ireland' s Patron Saint
since he was one of the great founders and sta tesmen of the Christian
reli gion . The Druids resented his arrival and took him captive many
times. He lived until March 17 , 493, and was buried in a shroud made
for him by St. Brigid in the place on which in later years the Cathedral
or Down was built.
The anniversary of the Saint is celebrated as Ireland' s national
holiday. He used to be pictured as a comic Irishman , but William
Yeats and Lady Gregory put forth their efforts and together , by
means of their writings , have made people aware of Irish tradition ,
beauty, and color.
Saint Pa trick is commemorated each year by everyone , though
they aren 't of Irish descent , in America. He is remembered with parades , dinners, and programs. For the "Emerald Isle " we wear his
color of green. Green is everywhere on March 17, The traditional
shamrock comes from the story that the patron saint , while preaching
Christianity, plucked a shamrock from the ground to show the Divine
Trinity .
Today, the seventeenth of March , let 's all celebrate St. Patrick's
day, and commemorate this great Christian leader, (me )

Three Teams Emerge
Victorious in Initial
Pinochle Tournament

For the last two weeks, lounge
gossip has centered on the closely
contested pinochle tournament which
was sponsored by the Social and Recreational Committee. Student interest was intense as the contest got off
to a flying start on March 7 with
twelve two-man teams competing.
The tournament was set wp on an
elimination basis. Three games are
played between competing teams.
Th e winner of t wo ou t of the thr ee
games remain s in the t our n ament ,
the loser is eliminated. The three
teams remaining in the tournament
after two nights of play were: Rita
'Dixon and Pat Kringe, Ellen Gibbons
and Bob Lang, Walt Baker and Edward Pompala. The tournamen t* ended last night.

WHY R ead It?
by Jack Reese
Just what does the reading of a
book mean to you ? Whether you are
a good , bad, or indifferen t r eader ,
can you put a finger on any benefits
which you derive from reading, whether the book itself is good, bad , or
indifferent ? In the first place it
would be logical to determine by
what standards a book is to be judged. When is a book good or bad ?
Why is it that some books make
the best seller lists while others head
the least seller lists ? It has come to
the attention of many that in numerous cases a book has received international acclaim which had no business even being published. The. assumption then is that the taste of the
reading public is the main steppingstone as far as book sales are concerned. Writing books is a moneymaking business and writers are going to produce the kind of reading
material that the public desires. In
other words, all one has to do to determine the reading taste of a particular nation or area is to consult the
book sales lists for that region or
whatever it might be.
Reading, to me, is much more than
ju st a way of learning. It is a recreational habit developed out of interest
to read what the public is clamoring
for, thereby, giving me a way in
which to judge whether or not my
reading taste coincides with that of
the reading public in general. How
many persons do you know that have
read a book because someone else
passed good j udgment on it, only to
comment upon it after reading that
it was a poor piece of literature ?
This has happened to me and no
doubt it has happened to you, but the
question involved is whether or not
we go on reading those books recommended from the reading tastes of
this nation's vast reading public. It is
very interesting to note that the majority of what is commonly called
the popular reading public still read
those books which are in demand
only because the majority of readers
select those books as the ones to
give them recreation or whatever it
is they are after.
This brings us down to the way in
which we are to decide whether or
not to spend those several free hours
in the evening in reading a particular
novel or what have you. In the Sunday editions of this nation 's leading
newspapers are book review sections
which describe, analyze, recommend,
or condemn all the new books on the
market. From these book reviews,
one can decide quite accurately and
honestly if the particular book in
mind is one worth reading. The writers reviewing books week after weelc
arc professionals but they are, in my
estimation, no different from the
reading public for whom they are
writing their reviews. There are
those who are hard to please, almost
unj ust in their opinions, an d pass
good j udgment on comparatively few
books. There are also those who rec-

The college high school basketball
tourney ran on in full swing last
week with the number of contenders
reduced to half the number of entries.
On Tuesday evening, March 7th ,
Rock Glen pulped Monroe Township
by a 61-17 count. Croll, lanky center
for the Blue and Gold of Rock Glen
hooped 22 points to lead the scoring
of that battle.
In the seven o'clock game, Scott
maintained a 23-13 lead at half time
then coasted to a 58-35 victory over
Moscow.
Ririgtown was no match for highlytouted St. Vincents as the Saints
walloped the Maroon and Gray, 5330. The tilt was a see-saw battle
throughout the first stanza, but after
th a t , St. Vincent went ahead, n ever
to be caught.
The feature test of the evening
pitted strong Pringle and Dalton.
With the combined efforts of Cannon
and Kalish, who each dumped in 17

Dalton 53-35.
On Wednesday evening, St. Marys,
class C powerhouse, slaughtered
Kingston Township by an 88-65 score.
St. Ed's of Shamokin and Forty

of the night before the Shamokin five

Paced by Haertsch, who dropped in

fracas.
Danville and Ashland opened the

athlete ripped the cords for 20 points.
After a day 's layoff , the elimination process began again on Friday
nigh t, March 10th, with Nescopeck
and White Haven battling. The fray
was a close affair for three quarters.
The most thrilling game of the
tournament up to that point came
about when Newport Township tripped Tamaqua 55-53 in the waning
seconds of the ball game.
Sunbury edged Nanticoke in another thrilling fray. The entire game
saw the lead change hands several
times before the Blue and White Sunbury quintet won 47-45.

margin.
In the seven o'clock tilt , powerful
Shickshinny walloped a hapless So.
Williamsport five 60-38.
Dickson and Freeland M.M.I, provided the closest fracas of the evening by battling it down to a 42-35
count before the Dickson five won.
Mt. Carmel proved to be no match
for the Berwick Bulldogs as they
thumped Mt. Carmel 68-48. Berwick's
fast break attributed to much of the
margin, as they wore down the rivals
early in the third period.

ommend practically every book they
are assigned to read and if you go by
their opinions, you will be performing the same job they are only you

would hardly know the difference between good and bad literature, so as
not to qualify in their title as book

have is to be able to choose from

troup of Grabowski- supporters playing musical instruments descended
the back stairway. Following a drum
majo r, they paraded down the aisle
to the front of the auditorium where
the campaigners played a number
which they entitled "Grabowski' s
Campaign Song at the Gremlin Ball".
When the conf usion subsided , Richard Wagner introduced the other
nominee for the presidency, Ca lvin
Kanyuck, who is known to the students through his duties as College
Crier in assembly. Calvin stated that
he can not play a musical instrument
although that ability might come in
handy to help soothe C.G.A. members
at the meetings of the College Council when they get a bit hot under the
collar. Calvin said that he can sing
but had to concede that there are
those who do not share this opinion .
The speaker maintained that in order
to have an active C.G.A. the students
must back up their chosen representatives. Calvin stressed the fact that
we need freedom of expression in our
student governing body. He also
stated that the best results in student government can only be achieved through cooperation between the
fa culty and students. Calvin said that
if elected, he would endeavor to represent the student cause and would
always lend an ear to student criticism. But to do this, he stated that
he would have to have the cooperation of the student body.
Richard Wagner then introduced
the nominees for the vice-presidency.
Tom Anthony, the president of the
Sophomore Class, was the fiir st candidate introduced. Tom gave a short
address in which he stated that although it is impossible to say that he
will excel in a j ob before he tries it,
he wants to see the j ob well done and
would appreciate being given a
chance to do it to the best of his
ability.
Preceeding the speech of the next
vice-presidential candidate, Ri chard
Kressler; Jane Kenvin , Lola Je an
Deibert and Mary Ellen Dean sang a
trio for Kressler 's campaign. Following the musical number, Dick enumerated his experience and qualificati ons for the office a nd pr omised t o
