Capitalism vs. Communism
Capitalism and Communism are both theories which embody
a way of life. Therein , however, the likeness comes to an abrupt
end , for each theory is so vitally different from the other that the
world has begun to fear that if one is to live the other must perish.
Together they cannot peacefully exist, and already the struggle
' between these two theories of life is beginning to unfold in far-off
Korea.
But the Question of which wav of life will live and which will
\ perish cannot be settled with guns and bombs on a battlefield in
. Korea or on any other field ot strife. For even more than ideas
i and theories of life, Capitalism and Comriiunisrn involve people-—
) people like you and I , our friends , and yes, even our enemies. To
< each man , woman, and child is given one<—and only one'—life to
1 live. No two persons have ever lived that life in exactly the same
\ way; not so much because it was a necessity to live differently, but
1because they chose to do so, And so it is today. The decision
It between Cap italism and Communism must be made by the people
"v who will Hve by its laws.
When a businessman makes a decision he, first of all , studies
t the possibilities of each idea that presents itself for consideration ,
c ever mindful of how it will affect his future, Surely, bef or e we
:d decide which is best for us '— Capitalism or Communism — we
s!should very carefully examine . both theories, At the same time
wwe must remember that what we do now will not onl y affect us,

Dro p Outs
Here is the most challeng ing educational fact of our times :
almost half of the young p eople who star t high school drop out
before grad uation. ' Profile of Youth , in the January LADIES'
HOME JOURNAL , discusses five representative "Drop- Outs "
who, just like hon or graduates , are our citizens of tomorrow.
Each year a million to a million and a quarter young people
leave school without completing their high school education. There
is no single , general reason wh y boys quit school. The reason
t hey most often give is "to get a job and make some money. "
Provi dence, Rhode Island , in a recent stu dy o f ear ly fl owers ,
found that low intelli gence is not an important factor. On the
contrary , near ly two^-thirds of the early school leavers were making passing gra d es when they lef t.
A stu dy of five drop-outs from a Bridgeport , Connecticut
hig h school shows a diverse picture. Fred Hine "couldn 't rea d f or
nothin ' " until the fifth gra d e, atten ded school in almost complete
innocence of any learning going on, had left "forever " fiv e days
after his sixteeth birthday. Harold McDonald possesses average
intelligence and made average grades, but w h en h e droppe d out
in his sophomore year , his teachers f el t he was "just one of t h ose
slow , dull boys." Tom Scott , a brilliant non-conformist , has left
school twice because he feels it 's a "dull routine , " an d in many
cases he is smarter than his teachers. Mike Mahi gel has problem
par ents an d t h oug h above average in ability, was failing in school
and had no friends when he quit. Bobby Evitts would have been
a sixt een-year-old senior if he had made up the three subjects he
failed in his junior year. But Bobby is determined about one thing:
he will never go throug h that Silas Marner again if he starves to
death.
There is no mag ic formula for keeping a greater share of our
young people in school or making it wort h w h i l e f or t h em to b e
there , but public schools must serve more of the public. People
who arc working for better schools agree that , while more of the
t a xpay ers ' money will be needed to provide indiv dual guidance
and better facilities , money is secondary to the personal interest
and demands of citizens for better schools and better teaching.
When people take an interest, things do happen.

18 Year Old Draf t—Bankru pt Colleges

»•

The 18-year-old is in a turmoil of confusion and uncertainty
as a resul t of the present draft situation.
Congress is at present considering the drafting of 18-yearolds, and the controversy rages. The armed forces need men , and
it is expected that some will be taken from presentl y deferred
groups to fill the draft quotas.
Op inions vary as to the qualifications of 18-year-olds as
soldier material. Many peop le claim that they lack the maturity
and emotional stability required. Others , among them many hig h
military officials , feel that men this age provide the best soldier
material , since they are more willing to take risks.
There is also the educational ang le to be considered. The
draft would postpone college for many men ; but if education must
be interrupted , many people feel# that it could best be done at this
age.
But what about the colleges? College administrators feel that
the 18-year-old draft , by depriving them of Incoming freshmen
students , would so reduce already-depleted college enrollments to
the point of hazard ing the existence of many institutions.
It is our opinion that the 18-year-old should let the draft
situation handle itself. If he has any special plans for the future ,
he should try to carry them out. If they should be interrupted by
the draft , he should be more than willing to serve his country.
Meanwhile , he could carry on "business as usual" until his
fate is decided by Congress.

Pal Joey . . .
John Kocur, of Russian descent ,
graduate of January, 1951, always
kidded his pals about being "in "
with Uncle Joe. He used to say,
"Treat me nice, or when Uncle
Joe takes over, you'll be cleaning
the streets with a tooth brush."
Well, to his pals' amusement, John
has landed a job in Moscow, teaching business. He's not giving the
Russians the business, but , rather,
those fortunate senior high school
students of Moscow, Pennsylvania.
For Wh om Bell Tolls . . .
Michael Bell, graduate of May,
1950, and contributer to the Modern Language Journal , is schoolteaching in Camden, New Jersey.
He is also, in his spare time, the

Gloria Mazzetti: (Looking at

Nancy Noz: "I don 't know what

Share the Wealth . . .
We have all heard that wealth
is concentrated in the hands of a
few, and the query, "Shouldn 't it
be re-distributed equally ?" According to Dr. Kehr , if all the money
above living expenses were collected and redistributed equally to
all, each individual would get
about $1.50. We think that the
money would soon find its way
back to those who had it in the
•

( Con tinued from page 1, col . 1 and 2)
Let us give our attention first of all to Communism and life
under its rule. Surely, it must have some good points and values
or it would never have spread its arms so far around the world
and enfolded millions of people within its grasp. Basically, Communism offers the common ownership of all property by all the
people, Man has aJways had a strong inner urge and desire to
"keep up with the Joneses, " and at first glance Communism appears,to be the perfect solution to this problem. For , with common
owners h i p of all property, the Joneses would never again be able
to get ahead of him. But history itself has proved over and over
again that such a thing as a perfect plan for life simply does not
exist. Every way of life, r egar dl ess of h ow goo d it h as b een or
sfi ll is, has its fair share of defects and faults. Therefore , we
cannot accept Communism as it appears on the surface , wit hout
stopp ing a moment an d taking a careful look at wat goes with it.
There is also a single authoritative agency which controls the
property t ha t is owne d by ever y one in common . Since this agency
is in comp le te contro l , t he re is no way f or t h e p eop le to question
or change a law to which they object.
Materiall y, Communism has brought help to many of the
world's oppressed people. Perhaps , tliis fact alone accounts for a
large proportion of the growth and expansion of Communism. In
t he eyes of needy and hungry people Communism opens the gateway to survival itself. In addition to this, it does not appear to
ma k e any d eman d s on t h e r eci pients in return for all its •wonderful
gifts. To each and every individual it gives the same , regar dl ess
o f nee d s, wants , desires or merits. Under this plan ev eryone h as
a s muc h as h is n eig hbor—no more , no less.
But what of the individual? Is he really satisfied with the
sam e th ings t h at satis fy his neighbors? Are his needs and his
desires identical to that of those around him? We might even
raise the question of whether or not he deserves as much as someone else, who received the same things? Under a plan of common
ownersh i p, these facts cannot be considered without the danger
of upsetting the entire system under which Communism operates.
Thejndividual sacrifices his personal rights and dignities in return
for the benefits of a share in the property common to all.
Now let us look at Capitalism and the type of life it embodies.
The keystone of a Capitalistic society is private enterprise. Every
man h as t h e ri ght to engage in the business profession , or life work
of his own choice. I f he meets success , the profits are his to use
as he sees fit. If he loses, the loss and the resulting d eb t are a l so
his problems. He cannot give them away, nor force someone else
to assume his liability. Neither will he be allowed to forget his
responsibilities to his creditors. Perhaps this sounds a bit harsh ,
b ut we must r em em ber t h at h e ch ose to ta k e a ch ance on su ccess
of his own free will. The poor decisions which broug ht about his
failure were also his own. And when the time comes that he again
rises above his failures , t h at , too, will be his own doing. The
satisfaction and the reward he has gained will not have to be
shared with those who have done nothing to attain it , anymore
than his failure was shared by those who had not caused it.
Whatever it is that a man wants and is willing to work hard
for. is h is to tr y for. But it will not be handed him as it is under
a Communistic society. Capitalism has its rich and it also has its
poor. Is this fair or should we give to one and all alike? Opportunity is placed on an equal basis. Now , what about material
things? Are they important enough to you , that you are willing
to sacrifice your personal rights , your human dignity, and your individuality in order to get them? These rig h ts are part of your
American heritage'-a very important part. Your ancestors considered them so valuable that they are willing to fight for them
and , if necessary, to die for them , in order that they might preserve
them for you. Even in our modern world of 1951 , there are brave
and heroic men who are giving their very lives for those rights
and ideals. They aren 't any different from you and me , and their
dreams for the future never included dying on a foreign battlefield
for the sake of a few flowery phrases. But they believe in the
American way of life , and they want their loved ones to go on
being free. So, before you throw away your precious heritage,
boug ht with human lives , make double sure what you 're getting is
(A. B.)
going to be worth the price.

Tho Weaker Sex ?
That ago old and universal question as to which is the weaker of
the sexes again comes to the fore
with the problem of blood. To
what extent , from whom , and
whence shall it come ? According
to statistics furnished by the
American Red Cross, blood donor
pledgees, on a national basis, are
77 per cent males, and 23 per cent
females. Here at the college, however, the recent blood donor drive
has netted, in the first 50 pledgees, a majori ty of women, we still
have 100 pledgees to go to meet
om* quota. Come on fellows, are
you going to live up to your reputations as red-blooded American
youths, or don't you have any
blood to spare either?
Thought for tho Day . . .
No doubt, you have heard the
old adage, "You can pick your
friends, but not our relatives/' To
this, we would like to add, as our
thought for the day, "You can 't
choose our parents, but you can
always pick your nose."

Notice
It is the wish of the M. & G.
staff to publish news about those
former students who have entered
the armed services of our country.
Anyone having the address of any
service man i s ask ed to contact
Jean Ruckle or Marie Mattis.
We know from past experience
that those in the service look forward with eager anticipation to
letters from home and from their
friends. Let's all participate in
this project.
From time to time we plan to
use excerpts from their letters to
show how things are going and to
keep in contact with those who
have left for the armed services.
We al so h ave been aut h or i zed
by the C.G.A. to send the Maroon

However, we nee d t hei r add resses
to do so. We also need the changes

in the first stanza ; from there , it
was a scoring battle between Butler for Bloom and Maxsom for
Mansfield , who neted a fine 27
points before fouling out in the
final , period. The score was tied
at 2-2 and 4-4, (he n the Huskies
took over as the first canto ended ,
B.S.T.C. was ahead, 25-19.
During the second stanza , consistent shooting by Thompson, Byham , Butler, and Daly kept the
slim Husky margin intact, except
once late in the period , when
Mansfield tied the count at 35-35.
However , the Shellymen were able
to grab the lead again, and at
halftime . they held a slim 44-42
margin.
Once again in the third period,
the Huskies regained their sixpoint lead. Butler and Maxsom
poured in shots for their respective teams, but the score at the
end of the frame was 65-59, in
favor of Bloom.
The entire Husky aggregation
saw action in the fourth period
and tallied 25 markers to pull
away from the Mountaineers, who
were fouling out one by one . Butler left the game with three minutes to go for a well-deserved rest ,
with 28 points under his belt. His
rival from Mansfield , Ma x som , also left the fray, but on fouls with
about two minutes remaining in
the tilt. A swarm of subs from
both auintets finished the contest, and the Husky boys held the
margin , and romped to the 13
point victory.
In the preliminary battle, the
Bloom Jay Vees again topped the
Mountaineer Frosh by a 67 - 53
count. Ondrula and Ercikson led
the Maroon and Gold scoring with
13 markers apiece. Kopec garnered 12 points, while Mansfield' s
Woodard hooped 19 tallies for individ ual scoring honors.

Presenting some of the action in the* recent Mansfield game which
resulted in the highest scoring contest so far in Centennial Gym during
the 1950-51 campaign.

Locker ifip- L' ngo
by Harry Brooks

The Huskies have recorded three consecutive victories as of last
Saturday night , with their courageous 54-52 win over Kutztown, and
they are in a fine position to finish the season with a chart of more
victories than losses. Not including the game with Harpur last Wednesday , the Huskies managed to pull their record to a 6-6 mark for the
campaign . In. this series of wins, Don Butler , fast rising as the ace on
the Maroon and Gold quintet, was top scorer on each occasion. His
individual efforts were 26, 28, and 17 points, for a total of 23.6 markers
per game, a commendable performance no matter whom you are playing
for . By playing their last three tilts at home with Indiana, Wilkes, and
K u tz t own , it seems logical that the Huskies will at least end the season
with as many wins as losses. In previous meetings on the foreign court,
the Shellymen have conquered Wilkes and Kutztown, and a prediction
of repeat vcitories in Centennial is not expecting too much. Indiana
should be a toughie; but the Maroon and Gold, in their current streak,
will probably be favored over the Indians when they pay their visit to
the Hill tomorrow night. When Wilkes comes to town, we are likely to
see a highly improved ball club. Since the Bloomsburg win over the
Colonels back in December, Wilkes has won more than their share of
ball gam es , and j ust recently defeated a powerful Kings College quintet.
Mr. Hoch is drumming up publicity for the forthcoming tournament
for the three classes of high schools. In another story on this page, full
details of the tourney are given. Mr. Hoch feels that this year 's annual
affair will be the biggest and best tournament in the history of the
event. Many new high schools will enter into the competition, and since
Berwick does not appear as strong- as in former years, a repeat of their
winning the class A title seems improbable. And while we are on the
subje ct of the tournament, how about pairing: Berwick with the local
high school , should they enter. This would create a fine interest in this
area despite the fact that the two rivals have met twice this year on a
home-and-home basis.
With track practice barely a month away, Mr. Shelly and his aides
are preparing to get the team into shape, with their uniforms, anyway.
Several boys have donned their new sweat suits, just to get the feel of
them.

Varsity Club

Approximately fifty members of
the Var s i t y Cl u b, led by Dan
Parrell , captain of the 1951 Husky
squad, attended a dance held in
the student nurses' home at Geisinger Hospital in Danville, Tuesday evening, February 13.
The student nurses extended
their invitation to the Varsity
Club last week and, in keeping
with the tradition of the "friendly
college on the hill," the Varsity
Club to a man accepted the nurses' bid.
Dan Parrell, Varsity Club president, reports that the dance was
a success and that several members of the group succeeded beyond their expectations in furthering a good neighbor policy between the two institutions. He
states that, as ambassadors, the
boys obtained valuable information in the form of phone numbers, vital statistics, and other
essential information. Individual
compacts also were established
during the pleasant evening 's entertainment.

Educational Class
Center Being Built
In Corning, N.Y*

Plans are being completed for
th e w orld' s most comprehensive
facilities for research and education in glass. They will be provided in a new building, the Glass
Center, in Corning, N. Y. dedicated to the history, art , science and
industry of glassmaking.
It will embrace the most complete ref erence library of glass in
existence and a museum housing
collections of glass obj ects representing every lield of glassmaking
in history. Included, too . will be a
new Steuben Glass factory with
spectators ' galleries from which
may be observed at close view all
the production operations in making hand-blown fine glass, from
furna ce to finishing room.
Opening of the Glass Center and
it s facilities is planned for early
summer of this year, which is the
Centennial of Corning Glass Works.
Instead of commemorating the
hundredth year with a series of
events emphasizing Corning achievements in the past century,
Corning Glass Works is directing
its efforts to the needs of the
fut u re , by the construction and
establishment of the Corning Glass
Center. While the occurrence of
the hundredth anniversary will be
recognized by an appropriate commemorative program, the emphasis will be on the opportunities for
the f uture benefit of Man provided
by the new Glass Center.
The two-story Corning Glass
Center will have over 100,000
square feet o£ f loor space and will
contain, in addition to the Library, Museum and Steuben plant,
lecture and study rooms, facilities
for employee activities and a
2,000 - seat auditori um for Company and community purposes. In
the lobby will be displayed the
original 200-inch . 20-tori telescope
disc, predecessor to the disc now
in service in the Mount Palomar,
California, observ atory . These
were the two largest pieces of
gl ass ever cast. The original disc
has been on public exhibit, as a
community proj ect, in the main
square of the city, drawing some
half-million visitors in the eleven
years of its display there. It was
moved on January 3 to the Glass
Cen ter , wh ere photomurals of
stars and galaxies from pictures
made possible by Mount Palomar 's
telescope will be part of the disc's
new setting. The grounds will be
landscaped, and parking space for
more than 500 cars will be adjacent.
In co n s t r u c t i n g the Corning
Glass Center, glass will be used
for the ex terior w alls , where it
will be combined with steel, and
also for parts of the roof , ex terio r
w alls , floors and divisions. The
building will demonstrate the varied uses of glass, from glass blocks
to glass fibre draperies. Use of
glass in these many ways will emph a si z e 'all its qualities , f r om the
hardness and protective characteristics which make it suitable
for sanitation and longevity, to its
absorbency in fibre form when
employed for insulation and accoustical treatment.

What Do You Think ?
by Robert Price
The question this week is, "How
Soon, if ever, do y ou think the
United States and Russia will enter war on a full scale?"
Hervey Thom as: If Russia doesn 't att ack this y ear , I don't believe
there will be a full scale war
within the next few years.
A. T. Swaboski : Just as soon as
the U. S. realizes that waiting increases Russia's strength and lessens the U. S.'s by the creation of
problems such as Korea.
Jack Persing: As soon as Russia
has enough time to build her
strength to the point where she
thinks she will be a "sure winner." We must progress further
by that time.
R. Hummel: War with Russia
can be averted, but we must carry
a "big stick."
Nan Wynings : Let us consider
the United States and Russia as
two balloons; we know that balloons can go only so high before
they burst. Considering war as
the breaking of these balloons, we
will have war when the two nations go a little too far.
John Gembusia; I don't think
United States and Russia will ever
fight a full scale war. If she wanted to fight, she would have started
about three years ago when we
were unprepared.
Clyde Ad ams : P e r s o n a l ly , I
don't think we will enter war if
we prepare well enough for it. If
we follow the policy which we
have started, I don't think Russia
will gain enough confidence.
Jacob Slembarsky : No . I don 't
think we'll ever fight, a f ull-scale
war with Russia. Only flare-ups ,
like the one in Korea , will rise
occasionally. Instances like those,
I believe, will be the closest to a
full scale war with Russia.

' which keep the large membership
of the Board on their toes.
The elections for C.G.A. officers
come first, then for dormitory and
day organizations, and the three
classes. The C. G. A. election is
planned to help students become
familiar with the routine of voting
which they will use when they are
twenty-one and go to cast their
first vote.
At the C.G.A. election you will
be voting for student officers who
are import ant to the welfare of
the whole college. To be eligible,

The nearest thing to bliss.
But , now I know Biology and
sit and sigh and moan
Six million mad bacteria and I
thought we were alone.

Policeman, Knocking at door: \*
Lady, your dog has just been run n
over by a steamroller.
Lady : Okay, slide him under the e
door.
An old-fashioned girl is one who d
takes the cigarette out of her v
mouth before pulling the nightie ;
over her head.
Here's to Ch arlie when I'm gone,
I hope he sheds no tears,
For I will be no deader then;
Than he has been for years.

FAMOUS LAST WORDS
Mother: There's plenty of time
for our son to think about marriage. Let him wait until the right
girl comes along.
Father: Why sh ould he? I
did n't.
We like the sign put up in a
nearby honky-tonk : "The management reserves the right to exclude

And then there 's the one about
the bashful girl who worked all
her crossword puzzles vertically so
she wouldn't have to come across.
Every time I kiss you, it makes
me a better man.
Well , you don't have to get to
heaven in one night.
Jill: Jack, don't y ou realize that
you'll never get anywhere by
drinking ?
Jack: Ain 't it the truth ? I
started up to the dorm from this
corner five times already .
Engineer : If you start at a given point on a given figure and
travel the entire distance around
it , what will you get?
She: Slapped , sir.
These j okes can't be so horrible.
When I th rew a sheaf of them
into the furnace the fire roared.
