Haydn 's "The Creation , " followed
by a group of excerpts from South
Pacific: "Some Enchanted Evening;" "Wonderful Guy," with a
solo by Cleo Costino; "Younger

sung by Erla Marie Meyers, with
a choral refrain by a trio, Connie
Seriff , Cleo Costino, and Kathleen
Sterner; Bali H'ai , by the chorus;
and "Gonna Wash That Man Ri ght
Out of My Hair " with Edith Hasson as soloist.
The next number was a soprano
solo by Connie Seriff who sang
"My Johann " by Edward Grieg.
This was followed by two choral
numbers, "The Time Is Now " by
Fred Waring; and "Comin' Thru
the 4 Rye ".
A novelty team "Two Notes and
a Piano," consisting of Janet and

amusing surprise performance of
"How Could You Believe Me ," and
"Oh Johnny; " followed by a blackface routine, "Shoe Shine Boy "

hymn, "This Is My Father 's
World. "

Should Women Be Drafted?
(> "Wh y d oesn ' t some b ody do something about drafting wom;n ?"
The social forces which made women hesitate to volunteer
:or mi litary duty would vanish if they were drafted , Mildred McAfee Horton , wartime head of WAVES , says in a recent issue
)f Ladies ' Home J ournal.
"Selective Service officials are having a hard time finding
nen , " Mrs. Horton says. "Veterans , fathers and boys in the midile of their educational training are being drafted. How muc h
?etter for the nation , it would seem , to draw from the 16 ,000 ,000
^oung men and women of draft age, ra ther than try to fill our
ni l itary nee d s f rom t h e 8,000,000 boys.
"N obody whs knows anything about military life seriously
rontemp lates making the Army or Navy— and certainl y not t h e
Vlarine Corps— into fifty-fifty coeducational organizations! The
nain business of military services is combat, and women should
)e noncom batants. Nevertheless , the organizational difficulty of
j sinq women for noncombatant duties is not insurmountable.
"T here is a pseudo gallantry which discourages using womin for war duty. They must be saved from the burdens of war—
:hough how they are saved by drafting their husbands , leaving
:hem with young children whose fathers have been sent to war ,
s hard to see. Worst of all , so-called chivalry led too many people
o believe that girls in uniform were somehow lesser in quality than
:he nice girls who stayed at home to work in a factory. Rumors
ibout their manners and morals spread like wild-fire. Most of
he rumors were wild.
"It seems safe to assert that the experience of most service
vomen was a positive , health y, morall y wholesome experience ,
naturing rat her than degrading, enric hing rather than cheapening.
\ s a matter o f f act , the armed services are probabl y less dangerous places for young women than are new jobs in war industry
vhere less adequate provision can be made for twenty-four-hour i-day welfare of personnel. Americans proved to be a fine lot of
utman beings whether or not they wore military uniforms. "
[Vy Day -11951
Wednesday, May 23, will be set aside as "Ivy Day " here on
:ampus. The class of May, 1951 , will be unique in having an Ivy
>Ji gnt instead of an Ivy Day. Twice a year , here at Bloomsburg,
he graduating class traditionall y pla nts a spri g of ivy which may
\ymbo\ize the growth of the class in the tiny ivy p lant as it deve lops into a beautiful vine-—th en again , it may commemorate
he graduating class by thus having a living symbol of the class
> n campus .
In previous years , the ceremony was held after the Honor
\ssembly near the end of the school year ; the seniors were attired
n caps and gowns, The Service Key awards and Who 's Who
iwards were presented at this time . It was a beautiful sigh t to se e
he seniors all attired in graduation garb walking to the front of
he auditorium to receive their hard-earned honors. "Service Key "
lonors are in harmony with the name "Service Key " as they
r epresent recognition for service to the college , as the members of
his year 's graduating class are well aware. These awards are
jiven to the upper ten per cent of the graduating class having a
ninimum of twenty points . This year 's sarvice key earners varied
n points from 64-29—the lowest point accumulation being nine
j oints over the minimum.
As the Ivy is planted "Ivy Night ", the fountain in Waller
-fall Court will be dedicated . This fountain , the gift of the class
>f 1949, will present an elaborate picture with its many colored
iflhts . The impressive ceremony shall include the senior 's singing
»f the beautiful melody, "The Halls of Ivy ".
Yes, Class of 195 1 , we are sorry to see you leave us. As we
vatch your ivy plant grow , it will be trul y a living symbol of your
lass. While you are singing "The Halls of Ivy " and are absorbed
>y the impressiveness of the ceremony and by graduation —think
>f your class—of the individuals comprising it. They and you are
low fjoing out to teach the youth of America, After four long
chool years of stud y, at last you will do that for which you have
>een preparing , In school you may have made new friends , h eld
Jub offices , participated in school productions , made good grades ,
ind perhap s written school songs or cheers , but now you must
eave all this . You will forget the unp leasant things about Bloomsairg, and retain onl y the pleasant or happy memories—your
riends , favorite professors, activities , social gatherings , and the
>eautiful campus,

Sun-bathing; . . .
Here we arc lying in the sun ,
and we [eel good. The hot rays
beat down upon our winter-whitened hides and for a few hours we
will broil conscientiously, thinking
flittingly about various things, but
nothing in particular , consciously
enjoying the warmth , the relaxation , dozing off intermittently, feeling good to be alive.
Another day may come to pass
when we will be broiling in the
sun , plagued by thirst , (h e life
oozing out of us drop by drop or
gushing from us in spurts . Then
we may look back to this time
when we enj oyed broiling in the
sun.
"How ironic!" we will say. "How
wrong it is that we should be here
on the battlefield dying in the sun ,
when we should be back home on
the back lawn feeling good to be
alive in the sun."
"God in heaven," we will say,
"why must we die when the sun
is shining ? The sun shines for
people to feel good in it, not to
di e in it."
May Day . . .
Marilyn Evans and Kitty Mitchell, gnomes who know no peers,
sparked May Day off to a gay beginning with a dilly of a dance.
The wind blew Marilyn's hat off
at the start of the convolutions,
and so Marilyn was a hapless, hatless gnome. The dance was inspiri n g, however, for both Kitty and
Marilyn gave convincing performances. The girls have been invited
to join the Dancing Gnome Society
of Upper Lower Slobbovia . . . ¦ ¦
Mr. and Mrs. Michael Dorak
were there with their adorable
daughter. Little Mary Jean seems
to have adopted Harry Fenstermacher. What are you trying to
do, Mike, scare the child ? . . .
Somebody conveniently walked
in front of the camera as Jim Barr
attempted to snap a picture of the
May Queen on her way to the
throne. It was colored film , too.
Goody! We bet Jim always wanted
a picture of a blackout in technicolor . . .
Someone, a few benches behind
us, (We made out a feminine , aunty type of voice .) spoke these
words in a cootchie-coo tone,
presumably to a small child , "I'll
fix you when we get home. Yes,
I will. I'll fix you." She repealed
the monologue so persistently that
we begun to fear the child was
broken. . .
Diane Snydor , the Queen of the
May, was lovely as usual. She:£ays
she doesn 't use Pon 's or Sweetheart Soap either. She j ust sticks
to Bab-o and Scat . . .
Oh! where can my Buick be? . . .
The above was the question asked by that popular man about. B.S.
T.C, John Kennedy . It seems that
some dastardly culpri t ( Note:
neither of these words are profane. ) decided that he could make
better use of John 's car than could
John. As a result , wo had , for a
short time, a careless, earless Kennedy. Local police authorities
question the idea of a theft. They
seem to think that it may have
been merely a case of a run away
car. "Hy 'ever ", to quote Smiley
Buvnetto , John is probably glad
to have his vehicle once again regardless of the circumstances under which it made its disappearance.
What a rollof! ! ! ! !
Yes, the day-dorm dance of last
week was a relief a relief—a relief from the strain of classes,
tormpapers, and the general humdrum nature of college life, It was
great to be able to go to a dance
without having to literally sign
one 's life away to do so, There
were no dance lists on which one
had to make clear and definite the
names of persons attending as
couples. The way things arc we
were looking forward to the day
when it would be necessary to get

Congratulat ions to t h e track team on t h ei r fi ne per f ormance at t h e
State Track Meet held at Shippensburg last Saturday. Tom Spack,
Joh nstown two letter man , took the individual first for the Huskies by
.vinning the javelin. Frank Womer, senior point-getter, tied for first in
the pole vault event. Bloomsburg was truly represented. The Shelly¦nen 's last meet of the season will be held today in West Chester when
the Huskies will battle the strong aggregation from the down-state
college. The Rams have posted an enviable record all season and will
probably be the toughest match for the B.S.T.C. boys this year. This
rneet was originally scheduled f©r May 5, but some difficulty caused its
postponement until tomorrow.
Tomorrow afternoon the Millersville Marauders will journey to the
Husky haven on Mount Olympus to engage Bob Redman's diamond boys
in the first Saturday afternoon game at home this year. A week from
tomorrow, on Alumni Day, the Husky nine will play their last tilt of the
1951 campaign when the Wilkes College Colonels will travel to B.S.T.C.
[n their initial meeting earlier this month, the Colonels dropped the
Vfaroon and Gold by a 5-2 score.
By the time this issue comes off the press, t h e tenn i s tourney w ill
be in its final stages. Speaking of tennis, the college addition to its
intercollegiate program hasn't done too poorly considering this is the
first year for the sport on this campus since the war years. Next year
ive can hope for better things and a longer schedule. Populari ty of this
sport has certainly been shown by the difficulty in getting a court at
almost any time of the day.
Because many of the alumni and friends of the college will be back
next week for the last time until Homecoming next fall, a complete list
»f the forthcoming schedules of all athletic events on this college 's
igenda will be printed. The football schedule is now complete, the
greater part of the basketball schedule is now listed, and most of the
baseball agreements are signed. The reader will also find a complete
recap of each sport for this past season.

Ivy Da y— 1951
A guard from the lunatic asy lum rushed up to a farmer on the
road and said, "I am looking for
an escaped lunatic. Did he pass
this way?"
The farmer puffed thoughtfully
on his corncob pipe and asked,
"What does he look like?"
"He's very short," said the
guard , "and he is very thin and he
weighs about 350 pounds."
The farmer looked at him in
amazement. "How can a man be
short and thin and still weigh 350
pounds?" he asked.
"Don't act so surprised , " said
the guard angrily. "I told you he
was crazy."

Each. Get Three Safeties;
Byham. Tallies Fourth Win
Th e Huskies wore th eir h ittin g
shoes wh en they j ourney ed to
Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday afternoon an d returne d h ome with a
17-2 verdict over a determined but
impotent King's College nine.
Th e Husk y clouters put on their
best offensive show of the year
as they pounded four King's pitchers for a total of eighteen hits.
Included in this array of base
knocks were two dou bles, four
triples, and one home run. Jimmy
Th ompson , Bill Byham, an d Mike
Evans showed the way with three
hits apeice, while Ledyard, Lambrinos, and Hummel each added a
pair of safeties to the imposing
outburst of power. This game was
t h e fi rst of t h e y ear th at saw all
of the starting Huskies hit safely.
Bill Byham had little trouble
with the King's b atters w it h the
exception of Matisak, who collected three of the nine hits that Byhajn scattered over the first eight
innings. Byham allowed only singleton runs in the fourth and sixth
innings and had complete control
of the game all the way. Danny
Fitz p atr ick was inserted on t h e
mound in the ninth inning and he
p rocee ded to str ike out th e first
two men v to f ace hi m an d f orce
the third man to ground out meekly to the infield.
Don Butler used hi s defensive
prowess to great advanta ge as he
made three sparkling plays in the
outfield that were nothing short
of sensational.
Joe Glosek continued his heavy
hitting and shows promise of becoming another Danny Litwhiler.
Glosek is not fast afield but makes
up for this lack in his consistent
long ball hitting.
This win, t h e secon d over K in g's
this year, fnakes the Husky record
read eight wins and three losses.
Coach Redman used hi s ent ire
squad for the first time this season and although the subs didn 't
score, they -gave a good account of
themselves.

Baseball Team Has
Impressive Record
As Season Nears End
As the Huskies draw near the
close of another baseball season,
they have once more compiled a
good record for B.S.T.C.
They have won seven of their
firs t ton starts ; and 2 of Bloomsburg's three losses have been by
one-run margins.
Excellent pitching by lefties
Buck Byham , Clem Makowski find
right-hander Don Kearns, coupled
with the timely hiting of ccnterflelder Don Butler, have contributed greatly to the Husky record.
Butler has been knocking down
the fences with his lusty bat ,
which has procured for him a .561
batting average. Southpaw Bill
Byham leads the mound corps
with a 3-1 record.

Barbara Harmon; Corresponding

Alter the business meeting, Marilyn Evans , Shirley Ashner, and
Gloria Dawn Long presented a
summary of an article appearing
in "The Educational Forum," the
monthly publication of Kappa Delta Pi.
The article was entitled "New
Con cepts in Education." It stated
that the most fundamental change
in the present-day emphasis in education is in regarding students
as individuals , rather than as members of a class. We seek to provide for the maximum development of the personality of every
boy and girl , within the limits of
his or her own powers. There are
no types among children—only
trends.
How a pupil learns is not j ust a
matter of thinking alone. His physical condi t ion , his emotional attitude towards the teacher and the
subj ect , his past success or failure in the subj ect , his previous
knowledge, and his home background all influence the situation.
These factors are closel y int erdependent and interacting.
Success in school is almost as
much dependent on emotional attitudes as on intelligence. How a
child feels about his school , his
school work and the different
school subj ects partly determines
his progress in school. What his
attitudes are toward his teachers
and their attitudes toward him
certainly determine how much effort he puts forward in the various
lessons. More and more, teachers
are beginning to realize that a
p u pil' s ability to think and to learn
is dependent upon how he feels
emotionally.
The Scotch chemistry professor
was demonstrating the properties
of various acids, "Watch carefully, " he instructed. "I am going
to drop this two-shilling piece into
this glass of acid. Will it dissolve?"
"No, sir," spoke up one student
very promptly.
"No?" asked the demonstrator.
"Perhaps you'll explain to the
class why it won't dissolve."
"Because ," came the answer , "if
it would, you wouldn't drop it in."
I had a perfectly wonderful day,

Berwick High Chorus

At Assembly, Thursday, May 10,
the girls' glee club of Berwick
High School again entertained the

years while presenting an entirely
new and varied program.

Haydn 's "The Creation , " followed
by a group of excerpts from South
Pacific: "Some Enchanted Evening;" "Wonderful Guy," with a
solo by Cleo Costino; "Younger
Than Springtime ," a soprano solo
sung by Erla Marie Meyers, with
a choral refrain by a trio, Connie
Seriff , Cleo Costino, and Kathleen
Sterner; Bali H'ai , by the chorus;
and "Gonna Wash That Man Ri ght
Out of My Hair " with Edith Hasson as soloist.
The next number was a soprano
solo by Connie Seriff who sang
"My Johann " by Edward Grieg.
This was followed by two choral
numbers, "The Time Is Now " by
Fred Waring; and "Comin' Thru
the 4 Rye ".
A novelty team "Two Notes and
a Piano," consisting of Janet and
Cleo Costino, the notes, and Kathleen Sterner, at the Piano, gave an
amusing surprise performance of
"How Could You Believe Me ," and
"Oh Johnny; " followed by a blackface routine, "Shoe Shine Boy "
and "Sing Something Simple."
The concluding song was a
hymn, "This Is My Father 's
World. "

Should Women Be Drafted?
(> "Wh y d oesn ' t some b ody do something about drafting wom;n ?"
The social forces which made women hesitate to volunteer
:or mi litary duty would vanish if they were drafted , Mildred McAfee Horton , wartime head of WAVES , says in a recent issue
)f Ladies ' Home J ournal.
"Selective Service officials are having a hard time finding
nen , " Mrs. Horton says. "Veterans , fathers and boys in the midile of their educational training are being drafted. How muc h
?etter for the nation , it would seem , to draw from the 16 ,000 ,000
^oung men and women of draft age, ra ther than try to fill our
ni l itary nee d s f rom t h e 8,000,000 boys.
"N obody whs knows anything about military life seriously
rontemp lates making the Army or Navy— and certainl y not t h e
Vlarine Corps— into fifty-fifty coeducational organizations! The
nain business of military services is combat, and women should
)e noncom batants. Nevertheless , the organizational difficulty of
j sinq women for noncombatant duties is not insurmountable.
"T here is a pseudo gallantry which discourages using womin for war duty. They must be saved from the burdens of war—
:hough how they are saved by drafting their husbands , leaving
:hem with young children whose fathers have been sent to war ,
s hard to see. Worst of all , so-called chivalry led too many people
o believe that girls in uniform were somehow lesser in quality than
:he nice girls who stayed at home to work in a factory. Rumors
ibout their manners and morals spread like wild-fire. Most of
he rumors were wild.
"It seems safe to assert that the experience of most service
vomen was a positive , health y, morall y wholesome experience ,
naturing rat her than degrading, enric hing rather than cheapening.
\ s a matter o f f act , the armed services are probabl y less dangerous places for young women than are new jobs in war industry
vhere less adequate provision can be made for twenty-four-hour i-day welfare of personnel. Americans proved to be a fine lot of
utman beings whether or not they wore military uniforms. "
[Vy Day -11951
Wednesday, May 23, will be set aside as "Ivy Day " here on
:ampus. The class of May, 1951 , will be unique in having an Ivy
>Ji gnt instead of an Ivy Day. Twice a year , here at Bloomsburg,
he graduating class traditionall y pla nts a spri g of ivy which may
\ymbo\ize the growth of the class in the tiny ivy p lant as it deve lops into a beautiful vine-—th en again , it may commemorate
he graduating class by thus having a living symbol of the class
> n campus .
In previous years , the ceremony was held after the Honor
\ssembly near the end of the school year ; the seniors were attired
n caps and gowns, The Service Key awards and Who 's Who
iwards were presented at this time . It was a beautiful sigh t to se e
he seniors all attired in graduation garb walking to the front of
he auditorium to receive their hard-earned honors. "Service Key "
lonors are in harmony with the name "Service Key " as they
r epresent recognition for service to the college , as the members of
his year 's graduating class are well aware. These awards are
jiven to the upper ten per cent of the graduating class having a
ninimum of twenty points . This year 's sarvice key earners varied
n points from 64-29—the lowest point accumulation being nine
j oints over the minimum.
As the Ivy is planted "Ivy Night ", the fountain in Waller
-fall Court will be dedicated . This fountain , the gift of the class
>f 1949, will present an elaborate picture with its many colored
iflhts . The impressive ceremony shall include the senior 's singing
»f the beautiful melody, "The Halls of Ivy ".
Yes, Class of 195 1 , we are sorry to see you leave us. As we
vatch your ivy plant grow , it will be trul y a living symbol of your
lass. While you are singing "The Halls of Ivy " and are absorbed
>y the impressiveness of the ceremony and by graduation —think
>f your class—of the individuals comprising it. They and you are
low fjoing out to teach the youth of America, After four long
chool years of stud y, at last you will do that for which you have
>een preparing , In school you may have made new friends , h eld
Jub offices , participated in school productions , made good grades ,
ind perhap s written school songs or cheers , but now you must
eave all this . You will forget the unp leasant things about Bloomsairg, and retain onl y the pleasant or happy memories—your
riends , favorite professors, activities , social gatherings , and the

Sun-bathing; . . .
Here we arc lying in the sun ,
and we [eel good. The hot rays
beat down upon our winter-whitened hides and for a few hours we
will broil conscientiously, thinking
flittingly about various things, but
nothing in particular , consciously
enjoying the warmth , the relaxation , dozing off intermittently, feeling good to be alive.
Another day may come to pass
when we will be broiling in the
sun , plagued by thirst , (h e life
oozing out of us drop by drop or
gushing from us in spurts . Then
we may look back to this time
when we enj oyed broiling in the
sun.
"How ironic!" we will say. "How
wrong it is that we should be here
on the battlefield dying in the sun ,
when we should be back home on
the back lawn feeling good to be
alive in the sun."
"God in heaven," we will say,
"why must we die when the sun
is shining ? The sun shines for
people to feel good in it, not to
di e in it."
May Day . . .
Marilyn Evans and Kitty Mitchell, gnomes who know no peers,
sparked May Day off to a gay beginning with a dilly of a dance.
The wind blew Marilyn's hat off
at the start of the convolutions,
and so Marilyn was a hapless, hatless gnome. The dance was inspiri n g, however, for both Kitty and
Marilyn gave convincing performances. The girls have been invited
to join the Dancing Gnome Society
of Upper Lower Slobbovia . . . ¦ ¦
Mr. and Mrs. Michael Dorak
were there with their adorable
daughter. Little Mary Jean seems
to have adopted Harry Fenstermacher. What are you trying to
do, Mike, scare the child ? . . .
Somebody conveniently walked
in front of the camera as Jim Barr
attempted to snap a picture of the
May Queen on her way to the
throne. It was colored film , too.
Goody! We bet Jim always wanted
a picture of a blackout in technicolor . . .
Someone, a few benches behind
us, (We made out a feminine , aunty type of voice .) spoke these
words in a cootchie-coo tone,
presumably to a small child , "I'll
fix you when we get home. Yes,
I will. I'll fix you." She repealed
the monologue so persistently that
we begun to fear the child was
broken. . .
Diane Snydor , the Queen of the
May, was lovely as usual. She:£ays
she doesn 't use Pon 's or Sweetheart Soap either. She j ust sticks
to Bab-o and Scat . . .
Oh! where can my Buick be? . . .
The above was the question asked by that popular man about. B.S.
T.C, John Kennedy . It seems that
some dastardly culpri t ( Note:
neither of these words are profane. ) decided that he could make
better use of John 's car than could
John. As a result , wo had , for a
short time, a careless, earless Kennedy. Local police authorities
question the idea of a theft. They
seem to think that it may have
been merely a case of a run away
car. "Hy 'ever ", to quote Smiley
Buvnetto , John is probably glad
to have his vehicle once again regardless of the circumstances under which it made its disappearance.
What a rollof! ! ! ! !
Yes, the day-dorm dance of last
week was a relief a relief—a relief from the strain of classes,
tormpapers, and the general humdrum nature of college life, It was
great to be able to go to a dance
without having to literally sign
one 's life away to do so, There
were no dance lists on which one
had to make clear and definite the
names of persons attending as
couples. The way things arc we
were looking forward to the day
when it would be necessary to get

Congratulat ions to t h e track team on t h ei r fi ne per f ormance at t h e
State Track Meet held at Shippensburg last Saturday. Tom Spack,
Joh nstown two letter man , took the individual first for the Huskies by
.vinning the javelin. Frank Womer, senior point-getter, tied for first in
the pole vault event. Bloomsburg was truly represented. The Shelly¦nen 's last meet of the season will be held today in West Chester when
the Huskies will battle the strong aggregation from the down-state
college. The Rams have posted an enviable record all season and will
probably be the toughest match for the B.S.T.C. boys this year. This
rneet was originally scheduled f©r May 5, but some difficulty caused its
postponement until tomorrow.
Tomorrow afternoon the Millersville Marauders will journey to the
Husky haven on Mount Olympus to engage Bob Redman's diamond boys
in the first Saturday afternoon game at home this year. A week from
tomorrow, on Alumni Day, the Husky nine will play their last tilt of the
1951 campaign when the Wilkes College Colonels will travel to B.S.T.C.
[n their initial meeting earlier this month, the Colonels dropped the
Vfaroon and Gold by a 5-2 score.
By the time this issue comes off the press, t h e tenn i s tourney w ill
be in its final stages. Speaking of tennis, the college addition to its
intercollegiate program hasn't done too poorly considering this is the
first year for the sport on this campus since the war years. Next year
ive can hope for better things and a longer schedule. Populari ty of this
sport has certainly been shown by the difficulty in getting a court at
almost any time of the day.
Because many of the alumni and friends of the college will be back
next week for the last time until Homecoming next fall, a complete list
»f the forthcoming schedules of all athletic events on this college 's
igenda will be printed. The football schedule is now complete, the
greater part of the basketball schedule is now listed, and most of the
baseball agreements are signed. The reader will also find a complete
recap of each sport for this past season.

Ivy Da y— 1951
A guard from the lunatic asy lum rushed up to a farmer on the
road and said, "I am looking for
an escaped lunatic. Did he pass
this way?"
The farmer puffed thoughtfully
on his corncob pipe and asked,
"What does he look like?"
"He's very short," said the
guard , "and he is very thin and he
weighs about 350 pounds."
The farmer looked at him in
amazement. "How can a man be
short and thin and still weigh 350
pounds?" he asked.
"Don't act so surprised , " said
the guard angrily. "I told you he
was crazy."

Each. Get Three Safeties;
Byham. Tallies Fourth Win
Th e Huskies wore th eir h ittin g
shoes wh en they j ourney ed to
Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday afternoon an d returne d h ome with a
17-2 verdict over a determined but
impotent King's College nine.
Th e Husk y clouters put on their
best offensive show of the year
as they pounded four King's pitchers for a total of eighteen hits.
Included in this array of base
knocks were two dou bles, four
triples, and one home run. Jimmy
Th ompson , Bill Byham, an d Mike
Evans showed the way with three
hits apeice, while Ledyard, Lambrinos, and Hummel each added a
pair of safeties to the imposing
outburst of power. This game was
t h e fi rst of t h e y ear th at saw all
of the starting Huskies hit safely.
Bill Byham had little trouble
with the King's b atters w it h the
exception of Matisak, who collected three of the nine hits that Byhajn scattered over the first eight
innings. Byham allowed only singleton runs in the fourth and sixth
innings and had complete control
of the game all the way. Danny
Fitz p atr ick was inserted on t h e
mound in the ninth inning and he
p rocee ded to str ike out th e first
two men v to f ace hi m an d f orce
the third man to ground out meekly to the infield.
Don Butler used hi s defensive
prowess to great advanta ge as he
made three sparkling plays in the
outfield that were nothing short
of sensational.
Joe Glosek continued his heavy
hitting and shows promise of becoming another Danny Litwhiler.
Glosek is not fast afield but makes
up for this lack in his consistent
long ball hitting.
This win, t h e secon d over K in g's
this year, fnakes the Husky record
read eight wins and three losses.
Coach Redman used hi s ent ire
squad for the first time this season and although the subs didn 't
score, they -gave a good account of
themselves.

Baseball Team Has
Impressive Record
As Season Nears End
As the Huskies draw near the
close of another baseball season,
they have once more compiled a
good record for B.S.T.C.
They have won seven of their
firs t ton starts ; and 2 of Bloomsburg's three losses have been by
one-run margins.
Excellent pitching by lefties
Buck Byham , Clem Makowski find
right-hander Don Kearns, coupled
with the timely hiting of ccnterflelder Don Butler, have contributed greatly to the Husky record.
Butler has been knocking down
the fences with his lusty bat ,
which has procured for him a .561
batting average. Southpaw Bill
Byham leads the mound corps
with a 3-1 record.

Barbara Harmon; Corresponding
Secretary—Marilyn Lundy ; Treasurer—Richard Powell; and Historian—Jeanne Ruckle.
Alter the business meeting, Marilyn Evans , Shirley Ashner, and
Gloria Dawn Long presented a
summary of an article appearing
in "The Educational Forum," the
monthly publication of Kappa Delta Pi.
The article was entitled "New
Con cepts in Education." It stated
that the most fundamental change
in the present-day emphasis in education is in regarding students
as individuals , rather than as members of a class. We seek to provide for the maximum development of the personality of every
boy and girl , within the limits of
his or her own powers. There are
no types among children—only
trends.
How a pupil learns is not j ust a
matter of thinking alone. His physical condi t ion , his emotional attitude towards the teacher and the
subj ect , his past success or failure in the subj ect , his previous
knowledge, and his home background all influence the situation.
These factors are closel y int erdependent and interacting.
Success in school is almost as
much dependent on emotional attitudes as on intelligence. How a
child feels about his school , his
school work and the different
school subj ects partly determines
his progress in school. What his
attitudes are toward his teachers
and their attitudes toward him
certainly determine how much effort he puts forward in the various
lessons. More and more, teachers
are beginning to realize that a
p u pil' s ability to think and to learn
is dependent upon how he feels
emotionally.
The Scotch chemistry professor
was demonstrating the properties
of various acids, "Watch carefully, " he instructed. "I am going
to drop this two-shilling piece into
this glass of acid. Will it dissolve?"
"No, sir," spoke up one student
very promptly.

If a certain newly hired night
watchman had had his' way, thi s
paper probably would not have
reached the college community until some time next week. It seems
that this likeable chap is a bit

realize that things don't stop because the hands on a clock have

This the twentieth edition of the
"M and G" will be the last one
available to the general college
oemmunity. There will be another
issue, but it will come off the

hope such individuals will take ut
lightly and not hold personal
gr udges. In conclusion, let us say
that i t has been a lot of work, but
it has also been fun. Don't forge t
