Article Printed in
Pennsylvania Farmer
Dr. J. Almus Rvissell, a member
of the English departmen t at
Bloomsburg State Teachers College, recently had an article published in the Pennsylvania Farmer,
a bi-weekly periodical, entitled
"Boy Goes to Meeting."
Dr. Russell is an authority on
New England folk-ways, a fact
which is exemplified in his article.
His adept handling of humorous
anecdotes undoubtedly amused
many folks, who were able to remember similar incidents in their
past.
The article is a flashback on
"Sunday-going-to-meeting." This
meant weekly Church attendance,
anticipated almost as much for
sociability as for religious purposes. After a hearty breakfast,
preparations proceeded for departure to Church. "I curried the
horse, Father blacked the family
shoes, Mother placed the large
soapstone and the smaller handstones on the kitchen hearth to
heat. And sister spread the buffalo
robes to warm over chairs in front
of the fire. These were to cover
our knees in the drafty sleigh.
"The pews filled rapidly with
relatives, neighbors , and other
friends. Bell vibrations shook the

and clothing.
At the Harrisburg convention ,
details of the world situation
among st u d e n t s , especially In
Southeast Asia, were given. Following this, all the representatives
held a general discussion on methods by which we can help alleviate
these conditions. Then small discussion groups were formed to
suggest various ways of raising
money on individual campuses In
order to support the program,
Students representing B.S.T.C.
were : Alice Quick, Robert Burns,
Clifton Clarridge, Gerald Houseknecht, and Russell Looker.

Local leaders of the Northeastern District of the Pennsylvania

School, is the local branch president of the P.S.E.A.
The program opened with sectional meetings at which such subj ects as professional problems, activities of the local branches, development of attitudes towards
greater professional organization,
legislation affecting teachers , the
teacher shortage, and standards
for future teachers were discussed.

Business Ed. Club
Observes Pa * Week

The regular meeting of the Business Education Club of B.S.T.C.
was held at 3 p.m. in Carver Hall
auditorium on October 18, 1951.
The meeting was called to order
by the president , Francis Galinski.
The minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved .
In order to commemorate Pennsylvania Week, Mr. Rygiel, the
club sponsor, gave some interesting facts about our state. Some of
these are listed below:
1. The world's first typewriter
was invented by a Pennsylvanlan.
2. Two steamboats were operating in Pennsylvania before
Fulton sailed up the Hudson.
3. The North Pole was discovered by a Pennsylvanian.
- 4. The first motion picture ever
taken in the world was taken
at the University of Pennsylvania,
Several members of the club then
offered additional i n f o r m a t i o n
about Pennsylvania.
Another feature of the meeting
was the showing of a movie concerning classroom discipline. The
picture described the wrong way
to handle disciplinary problems
and then domonstratecf the correct
procedure. The point was stressed
that good teaching will effect good
discipline.

New Lounge Restrictions
Recommended to President

The second regular meeting of
the College Council was held in
room L on Monday, October 22, at
7 P.M.
The Lounge:
The lounge problem has been a
main topic of discussion at a special meeting and at both regular
meetings of the Council. Jane Seely, chairman of the lounge committee, presented the report *of the
committee.
The Committee report included
a st atement of the problem, the
responsibilities involved, recommendations for prohibitions, penalties for violations, and means of
administration and enforcement.
Simply stated, the problem concerns ways and means of keeping
the elevated portion of the lounge
in the best possible condition ; of
keeping the new furniture from
being damaged by cigaret burns,
knives, pencils, food sta ins , etc.; of
setting up a policy to regulate the
use of the lounge and recommend
penalties for violations of regulations.
The committee feels that the
care of the lounge is primarily the
responsibility of the students who
make use of its facilities. These
stu den t s, however, h ave f ailed to
assume their full responsibilities;
therefore, the committee feels that
the College Council must administer and enforce whatever policy is
recommended for adoption.

Leave a Lastin g Memory

Each year many gra duates of Bloomsburg State Teachers
College return to the campus to renew old friendshi ps t h ey ma d e
while students here at college. Some of these graduates are remembered by all , ot h ers b y f ew , an d some who failed to make
lasting friendshi ps by none. In the years to come , "Homecoming
Day " an d "Alumni Day " will mean a great deal more to us. ' Will
you find friends when you return? And more imporfant still , will
your former classmates have good memories of you?
Frien dshi p is like wealth , except that it fills your heart instead
of your pocketbook. The four years we spend in college offer us
a ch ance to m a k e f rien d sh ips t h at l ast t h roug hout our life. The
people in your classes, your roommate , an d t h e peop l e you meet
can all become your friends if you are willing to make an effort.
But college is not the only place for us to make friends , nor
is it the onl y opportunity we have to be kind to others. If you will
follow this simple rule : "Do unto others , as you would have others
d o unto y ou ," you -wi ll have many f rien d s, an d even t h ose w h om
you ju st meet will remember you for years to come. The old expression— "Bir ds of a feather flock together " is a basis for the
assumption that your personality is portrayed throug h your
friends. By keeping your standards high , you can be proud of the
company you keeo.
If one can make a suggestion , ma k e a list of t h e various
pers onality traits that irritate you , an d also how you want others
to respect you. Then analyze yourself and find those errors of
which you ar e guilty. By being pl easant to ot h ers , you will find
that your friends will treat you as you treat them.
To be remembered is one thing, but it is for what you are
remembered that counts. Don ' t let yourself become a bragger—
if you really h ave ta l ent , others will speak for you and make it
more interesting. When you begin sounding off with your woes ,
remem ber that your friend has his own troubles ; probabl y more
than you. No one can escape entirel y f rom ta lk ing a b out ot h ers ,
but don 't be catty. If you can 't say somet hing good about a
pers on d on 't say anyt hing.
In dealing with friendship, MacCunn , in his book ' "The
Ma king of Character, " has this to say — "Of all the human relationshi ps this is perhaps the one which most jealousl y resists
dictation.^" No one likes to be bossed , so remember your friends '
rig hts when you are together. In the end , the only one you will
have to dictate to will be yourself .
From one of my friends I heard an expression which I believe
is wort hwhile for us all to know : "On your way up the ladder of
life , treat the people you meet justl y, for they mig h t b e t h e same
pe ople you pass on your way down. "

Hallowe 'en

The mystic rites and ceremonies with which Hallowe 'en was
ori ginall y observed had their ori gin among the Druids , centuries
before the dawn of the Christian era. Tlie name is of Christian
origin and refer s to the eve of All Hallows of All Saint 's Day,
which falls on November 1. Among the Druids , it was the eve of
the festival of Saman , the Lord of death , who called together at
that time the souls of the wicked who had been condemned to
inhabit the bodies of animals.
It occurs at the time of the ancient autumn festival f oi the
Drui ds , which was celebrated with merriment and feasting. Alt h oug h it marked the waning power of the sun and the beginn ing
o f wint er , it was at the same time the occasion for surveying the
harvest and was the natural occasion for a feast. They also associated ghosts, hob-goblins , witches , fairies , elves , and divinations
with the nig ht , and these , appealing to the popular imag in ation ,
have largely survived in the celebration along with the harvest
motif.

Various methods of foretelling ' the future were used on
Hallowe 'en and the results were accepted in all seriousness. One
of the dishes served at supper in Ireland on that eve was known
as Callcannon. It consisted of mashed potatoes , parsnips , and
chopped onions. A ring, a thimble , a china pig, a doll , and a coin
were stirred in it and when it was served , the one who found the
ring was to be married within a year; the finder of the doll would
have children ; the one who got the thimble would never marry,
and whoever was fortunate enough to qet the coin would have
wealth,
The belief in witches still survives in some nearby localities.
German farmers in eastern Pennsylvania paint signs on their
barns to warn the witches away, although in recent years some
of them have insisted that the signs were merely ornamental,
A Pennsylvania belief is that if one goes out of the front
door backward , picks up grass or dirt and wraps it in paper and
puts it under the pillow one will dream with certainty of what the
future holds. In Maryland , the girls put an eqg on the stove to
fry and open the doors and windows wide. Then the man they
are to marry will come in and turn the egg. Another superstition
is that if one eats a crust of dry bread before going to bed on
Hallowe 'en , any wish that one may have will be fulfilled . .
Hallowe 'en in the present century has been made into an
occasion for historical pageants having little or nothing to do with
the magic lore of the season, By this time , the custom of a carnival
parade on Hallowe 'en in fantastic costumes has become general in
most parts of the country, The season has come to be regarded
as a time for merry-making rather than for serious consultation
of mag ic oracles. This is a modern development , but the custom
of the children who go about the neighborhood wearing masks
and fancy costumes and stopping at homes for app les, cookies ,
and candies is a survival from Hallowe 'en, seventeenth century
style,

Huskies Cop Fo urth
D ecisi on, Topping
Red Raid ers 40-14

Maroon and Gold Stars ? ? *

Tom Sch u ki s, John Nemetz,
Russ Verhousky, Tom Spack, and
Barney Osevala are five players
on the Husky football squad who
are giving the opposition many
headaches these autumn days. Tom
Schukis, playing his fourth year
on the varsity eleven, is the offensive center whose pivot play has
inspi red the entire line on numerous occasions. Tom, the grandpappy of the team at the age of
26 , hails from Mahanoy City. Before entering B.S.T.C, he spent 30
months with the Seabees in the
South Pacific, participating in the
fighting on Saipan , Tinian , and
Guam. This year Tom, an avid
Yankee baseball fan , saw a lineman 's dream come true. He started Millersville's 40-14 trouncing
by recovering a fumble in the
Marauder end-zone for a touchdown.
John Nemetz, burly sophomore
tackle, is one of the reasons that
the hard-charging Husky line has
allowed t h e ' opposition to gain
very little yardage on the ground
this year. Nothing pleases John
more than to play both offensively
and defensively from his tackle
position. You can see his No. 95
making numerous tackles at our
football games. He credits his coworkers in the Paint Gang of the
PRR f or helping him during the
past summer to prepare for the
football season. John participated
in both football and wrestling at
Shamokin High, where he led the
wrestling team to a district championship.
Russ Verhousky, glue-fingered
end from Coaldale, is having his
best season at the terminal position. It seems that when this Junior is not catching passes for long
gains, he is blocking the opposition 's punts. Last week against
Shippensburg, Euss caught a 40yard pass from Spack and then
out-ran several Red Raider defenders for 30 yards to . pay-dirt.
Verhousky served 16 months with
the Army occupational forces in
Korea. While in the service he
learned much about the end slot
from two former West Point AUAmer*icans. Russ is an able performer for Mr. Shelley 's track

squad; his specialty is the high
jump.
Tom Spack's play from the wingback position has given Coach
Redman much satisfaction . The
Johnstown back has completed
more than half of his passes and
made our longest run of the year,
a 71-yard j aunt against Mansfield.
His passing has accounted for two
touchdowns and set up three additional score s, while Tom has crossed the goal line three times himself. Quite an accomplishment for
a sophomore ! To tackle the hardrunning "Spook" is an exceptionally difficult task; it usually requires more than one man to
knock him to the turf , so f u riou s
and hard is his drive.
The fifth member of our quintet
this week is fullback Barney Osevala. Barney excelled in three
sports at Shamokin High — football, baseball, and basketball. This
work-horse of the backfield has
run the ball more than any other
back. He is the second leading
scorer on the squad, with five
touchdowns. Osevala played his
best game in the 12-0 victory over
Indiana last year. He completed
his only pass of the season for a
score and personally accounted for
the other TD on a short line
plunge after he had run 60 yards
to set up the touchdown. Let's
hope that Barney can give us a
repeat performance this year!

Genial economist Bob Redman 's
"Touchdown.Plant" supplied more
th an the dema nd , as his Husky
laborers rolled out a 40-14 Homecoming victory over the Shippensburg Raiders. It marked the locals
fo urth conferen ce win , but they
still trail Indiana State Teachers
by two points.
In the latest splurge of triumph
it was again swift Bob Lang,
Blasting Barny Osevala, and Tom
Spack , whose passing accomplishments led to five scores. Lang
boosted his touchdown total to
eight on runs of 20 yards and 5
yards,, while Osevala broke loose
for substantial gains. To Spack,
however, go the outstanding honors. His first pass attempt covered
77 yards as he passed to "Fingers"
Verhousky and a score. He set up
the second on a 38-yard run , and
his passes to Brennen and Lambrinos set up the third and fourth ,
while he squirmed 8 yards for the
fifth Husky score.
First Quarter
Spack received and came back
t o the 20, where Bob Lang fumbled on the first running play and
the Raiders recovered. On their
first offensive try, the downstaters
put 7 points on the board as Kopec
passed to Mills and Russ added
the point. Bloom 0, Raiders 7.
Osev ala t ook the ki ck and came
out to the Husky 33. After two
running tries, Spack fired a pass
to Verhousky, who outran his opponents to the pay dirt. Linkchorst
added the point. 7 - 7 score.
After an exchange of punts, the
Huskies drove to their opponents '
20 , where Bob Lang carried it over
and Linkchorst converted to make
it 14 - 7. Late in the period Spack
passed to Lang, and Charley Brennen moved the ball to the Shippgnsburg 5. As the period ended,
the score stood at 14 - 7, with the
Huskies leading.
Second Quarter .
Osevala scored in two tries,
from the 9. Linkchorst converted,
Huskies lead , 21 - 7. The Raiders
failed to score; and the Huskies,
with Lambrinos' catch of Spa ck's
pass on the 4, then scored as Lang
rolled over with aid from the
Husky front wall. The half ended.
The score : 27 - 7.
Third Quarter
The line play became fierce in
the period, and fumbles gave the
Huskies the ball 8 yards out.
Spack made this in one play. Linkchorst converted to send the score
to 34 - 7.
Fourth Quarter
The H u skies' final tally came
early in this sta nza as "Bo" Rainey passed to Bob Thurston in the
end zone , to raise the score to
40 - 7.

The pride of the State Teachers College conference, our B.S.T.C.
Huskies will travel to Kutztown tomorrow afternoon to meet their fifth
opponent , in a game which may well tell the story of the winner of the
new crown. Kutztown has a good club. The only common foe of both
Bloom and Kutztown was Shippensburg; the Golden Avalanche beat the
Red Raiders, 20-7, while the Huskies soundly tamped the Shippers, 40-14.
The Redmen . will be favored , but Kutztown has a heavy and quickscoring eleven. Should B.S.T.C. win, they will pick up valuable points
toward winning the title. Should Kutztown cop the victory, they will
gain new life for the title chase. In their opener, Kutztown bowed to a
good Indiana team , 14-0. It should be an interesting game, with Bloom
coming out on top.
In the history of predicting football scores, there has never been a
worse season for the guessers. Even the experts are moaning the blues
because of the frequent upsets which knock valuable percentage points
off the season's totals. Our percentage looks something like a YankeeRedsox baseball score, 24 right and 20 wrong, or a percentage of 54.5%.
Once again we will try to better the mavk. The only good prediction of
last week was Arkansas's upset of Texas.

It was brought to my attention by that superlative English minor ,
Donald Cesare , who incidentally also has certain other athletic skills,
that the current expression is not "mice try ", but is really "nice try ".
Not wishing to start an entirely different slang term on the grounds of
B.S.T.C , I hereby present the possible reasons for said mistake in last
week's column.
<
1. The linotype operator doesn't like me.
2. The linotype operator likes mice.
3. Maybe he thought the mice should get a try now and then.
4. Maybe his fing er slipped. (This last is simply too reasonable to
believe.)

Picked up while dunking doughnuts . . .
Homecoming wasn 't j ust a backslapping, doughnut-dunkin g occasion. A lot of the more recent Alumni were exchanging views and expletives on the teaching profession. Among the cider and such that I
picked up in the Old Gym confab were some interesting bits of info on
the subj ect , "Teaching as he is Taught". Assuming you have your own
grain of salt handy, we might as well get on with it.
Dick Kressler, class of '51, shouted to me over a cup of coffee that
ho is teaching in a high-powered junior high school in Baltimore.
Twenty-five hundred students and electric bulletin boards. On the other
hand , Bob Maza, also of '51, is teaching in a school with two hundred
and fifteen students in six grades. Betty Brons.on , of the green eyes and
. . . ah, that is, of the class of '51, is teaching kindergarten and first
grade. I also exchanged cider-dimmed glances with Diane Snyder and
learned still more about kindergarten. After milling about and finding
a few more samples , I came to a few general conclusions other than that
the eats were good.
*1. The bigger the school ; the frustrateder the teacher.
*2. The smaller the school ; the contenteder.
3. Teaching must be for love ; it can 't be for money. (Some exceptions.)
4. Some few people have quit teaching and started to make money.
5. All students were glad to be back on The Hill—some wish they
still were.
6. We had the best Homecoming in many a year.
7. Betty Bronson 's eyes are still green,

more frustrated" , but you've got to admit it's different ..

Merlin Jones asked if Current Currents would run something about
the Varsity Club Dance to be held in the Centennial Gym at eight-thirty
on November 19, but I refused. I told him that the Varsity Club Dance
on November 19 was mentioned last week and would not be mentioned
again.

The Frosh show hit a new high this year with a load of talent
ushered in by little "Bells" Colone. I'm not saying there 's anything
unusual about a six-foot-five "genie " who is also an assistant football
coach , but the theme was a scream and the crop was the cream.

More bounce to the ounce . . .
Mighty, small Jack Schaar proved that the good stuff comes in little
packages in last Saturday's game. Pie got a badly-inj ured leg while
spearing a Shippensburg footballer. Just to bring the "crutchees" up to
date , it is noted that Frank Sheehan is also "casting " about. Both of
these men were inj ured in the line of duty . Since we're fresh out of
The Order of the Purple Current medals , I would take this opportunity
of conveying what I feel sure is the student body 's sentiments. "Thanks
for a j ob well done. "

If any of you have had to chip the ice off the distilled water in
Science Hall , you probably have gathered by now that the steam was
off thi s past week. What may not be known is that (According to my
A. R. system) every effort is being made to secure an auxiliary boiler
to be located near the laund ry until the steam modifications are completed. Until this matter is finally brough t to heel, it should be pointed
out that bundling is an excellent way to keep warm.

Aft er a discourse by the Minister , the benediction , and final
1hymn, we proceeded slowly down
'the aisle. Sunday dinner feast con!tsisted of beef stew * with vegetables, a beanpot of baked apples
perhaps baked rice pudding.

dinner with f ull stomachs
but easy consciences we drew up
before the fire the homemade
"settle," Boston rockers, and a
(couple of footstools, where we
might view the leaping flames and
[eel the welcome heat of the white
ibirch logs. And as we watched ,
the wind roared in the chimney,
frost sculptures # melted on the
window panes, and on the heavy
:stones wm'ch formed the chimneythroat we p.gain beheld flakes of
!soot all aglow— "people-going-to)meeting." Here, Dr. Russell has

A summary of budget policy follows:
1. Each allocation under the budget covers every expense for the
[unction served. For instance, especial attention is called to the fact
that items for Athletics covers all expenses including awards, officials,
equipment, transportation , advertising, communications, medical and
personnel services, etc ., for each activity.
2. All balances of Community Activities Fund at the end of the
college year revert to the Reserve Fund.
3. The Estimate of Income and Expenditures submitted by all
organizations submitted by all organizations in the Spring of 1951 have
been the basis for the allocations made.
4. Mr. Martin will give such comparative figures as he has to
faculty advisors and student officials. The audit of the Community
Activities Fund is available for examination in the office of the President (copies may not be taken from the office).
5. The Federal Internal Revenue Tax has been budgeted as an
expenditure so that it will not be charged against the specific sport or
event which gives rise to the tax.
6. The cultural programs include weekly assemblies, college entert a inment course, and 300 reservations for programs of the Bloomsburg
Civic Music Association.
7. The College and Community Service includes Alumni Meetings,
High School Visitations, Elementary and Secondary Education and
Retail Selling Conferences, and other community service. There will be
only one Baccalaureate and two Commencement Exercises during the
year.
8. An expenditure of $1,000 from the estimated profits of the
Canteen is provided for the Obiter.
9. No large expenditures for Reserve and New Projects will be
approved until the second semester.
10. No allocation is made for furniture and equipment in this budget
since $5,000 was earmarked out of Retail Store Funds last year for
purchase of new furniture.
