Photo graphy Club
Being Organized
A photography club is in the
process of being formed on the
campus of B.S.T.C. The idea for
such a club originated with Maroon and Gold photographer Keith
Smith , who began the arrangements necessary to organize a new
extracurricular activity .
Before such an activity can become a purt of the college program , its constitution must bo
presented to the College Council
and the President , and the organization of the club must be approved by both.
Approximately twenty-eight interested persons attended a meeting to select a commute to draw
up a constitution. The following

The Bloomsburg Players, school
d ramatic organization under direction of Miss Alice Johnston , presented a one-act, play during the
regular assembly period on November 1.
"Teapot on the Rocks , " by Joh n
Kilp a tri ck , took place one afternoon in Spring in a small room
adj oining a larger tea room intended lor prospective guests.
The cast included Pat Taylor as
Daisy, Mary Ann Martz as Mae,
' i as Roy, Peggy DorSlim' Ruppc
as
Mrs. Castairs, Kitty
sava^e
Mitchell as Willy, and Alex Kubik
as the gas man. Also credited to
the success of the play arc David
Newbury and James Ciavaglia ,
stage manager , and Myrtle McGar^lc , pro mpter.
"Teapot on the Rocks" was a
fine example of the type of play
which is put on by the Bloornsburg
Players for their regular weekly
meetings. In this workshop manner , the members of the club organization obtain a fine opportunity
for dramatic experience in acting,
directing, and stage routine.
Civic Concert Will
Present Duo-Pianists
Thp second program of the year
in the schedule of the Bloomsburg
Civic Music Association will be
held in the Bloomsburg High
School Auditorium on Tuesday,
Nov. 6, at 8:30 P.M. A two-piano
concert will be p"e<-cn f od by ArUiur Fervante and Louis Teicher,
Duo-Pianists.
The program of this two-piano
team will consist nf numbers by
Bach , Warshaw. Rauel , Infante ,
S a i n t - S a e n s, Khachaturian , Debussy, Gershwin, and a fantasy
composed by the artists themselves.
One of the greatest difficulties
facing a piano duo is the task of
programming. Since so very few
works have been composed for two
pianos, such a team has a very
limited choice in selecting what it
will present to its audiences. At.
the same time , the pianists must
strive to satisfy their own ideals
of what they wish to play in their
concerts.
One of the members which will
render on November 6 was written
especially for them. Malvin Warshaw has been a closo friend of
both since their childhood days ,
and lie composed '"Crameriana "
for them , at thoiv request.
Their original composition is entitled "American Fantasy, " and
was based on " W h e n J o h n n y
Comos Marching I-Iome." The
pianists also will plr.y a group of
popular classics by Khachaturian ,
Debussy, and Gershwin , which
they transcribed for two pianos.
The programs of the Bloomsburg Civic Music Association ai'e
open only to members of the association. Bloomsburg State Teachcvs College purchases a bloc of
three hundred tickets, in order
that students of the college may
attend these concerts.

The Price of Success
What is it which brings success in life to one man , and
mediocrity or failure to his brother? It can ' t be men tal capacity.
There is not as much difference in our mentalities as is indicated
by the difference in performances .
The answer is, some men succeed because they cheerfull y
pay the price oi success while others , t h oug h t h ey cl aim am b ition
and a desire to succeed , ar e unwilling to pay that price.
The formula for success is —
To use all your courage to force yoursel f to concentrate on
the problem in hand ; to think of it deepl y an d constant ly; to stu dy
it from all ang les, and to plan ahead.
To have a high a nd sustain ed d etermination to ac h ieve w h at
y ou plan to ac comp lish , not on ly w h en con ditions are f avora bl e
to its accomplishment, but in spite of all adverse circumstances
which may arise.
To refuse to believe that there are any circumstances sufficient ly strong to defeat you in the accomplishment of your purpose.
Hard? Of course. That 's why so many n ever achieve success;
they yield instead to the siren call of the rut and remain on the
beaten paths that are for beaten men. Nothing of note has ever
been ac h ieve d with out consta n t en d eavor , some pain , an d ceas el ess
application of the lash of ambition .
That 's the price of success. Every man should ask himself:
Am I willing to endure the pain of this struggl e f or t h e rewar d s
an d t h e g lory that go with achievement? Or shall I accept the
uneasy and inadquate contentment which comes with mediocrity?
(J S)
Rededication
Time: November 2 , 1951
Place : Corner of E. Main and Iron Streets , Bloomsburg, Pa.
Cast of Characters : You , your roommate, an d a few other members of the 'old gang. '
Action : Joe Jones , a rat her ordinary-looking fdlow , and one of
his friends pass by. You overhear a scrap of Joe 's conversation which goes something like this : "Wh y, one o f my
ancestors hel pe d d ump King George 's tea in t h e ocean at
the start of the Revolutionary War , an d his great grandson
died in the battle of Gettysburg. And . that isn 't all . My
grandfather Jones rests beneath a little white cross somewhere in France."
You turn to your friends with a knowing smile. Without
saying a word, it ' s quite evi de nt t h at you 've just put Joe in t he
egotistical , stuffed shirt class. So what if his family tree had a lot
or soldiers on it. America has had loads of soldiers in it 's h istor y
of 175 years as a nation.
, . But stop and think a minute. That 's an American you 're
laug hing at— a real American. A man who is justl y proud of his
heritage and realizes the terrific price that has been paid for his
freedom. To him , the American way of life is alive , not just something to read about in a history book. Alive because his own
people helped write the glorious story that is our American history.
We 'd be pretty safe in saying that Joe takes his role of a free
American citizen as seriously as most businessmen do the operation of their business,
But how about you? What are you doing to keep your homeland an independent nation? Or do you take it pretty much for
granted that America will never fall prey to any other type of
government? Just try telling that to "Old Uncle Joe. " This year
marks the one hundred-seventy-fifth anniversary of our Declaration of Independence, but Joe Stalin hates to see this kind of
record grow any longer. He 's not going to stand on the sidelines
and watch. Are you?
It mi ght not be a bad idea for all of us to take a new look at
our freedom. It has become such a commonplace thing to go to
the polls and vote that we scarcel y think of it as any kind of
freedom at all. The truth of the matter is , many of us regard it as
some kind of duty we 'd raj ther not bother with. But just let the
election returns show that everyone doesn 't vote the way we would
have , and the first thing we do is let out with a lusty gripe , to say
nothing of the name-calling we do in connection with those who
voted in such a displeasing manner, Okay, they voted , didn 't
they, and that 's every man s right to exercise as he himself sees
fit. By failing to exercise these rig hts, we may someday find ourselves without a right to exercise,
Voting isn 't the only thing we 're neglecting'- there are other
things—many of them. Together they are killing—yes, killing-—
our way of life, America, won 't you please wake up, now, before
it 's too late?
Nineteen hundred and fifty-one marks the anniversary of our
Declaration of Independence, Our history, as a nation, is a long
and glorious one, However, we cannot rest on our past laurels
and expect to go on as before, If we do , we are breaking the faith
with all the men who rest beneath the rows of white crosses the
world over; we are destroying the dreams of our forefa thers who
sacrificed their all to build America, Let 's not mark our 175th
anniversary with g lorious speeches and flag-waving alone. Let 's
do something to keep America a free and independent nation,
You a nd I , and all the rest of the students on this campus
hold the power to keep America alive and growing. Can you
honestly live with your own conscience if you let her die? Better
still , can you adjust your personal likes and dislikes , your beliefs ,
(AB )
and your way of living to Communism???
PART 2
As I sit here in this four o'clock
class,
My mind lives memories of the
summer past.
I dream of swimming and ice
cream cones,
I wish for the .life I live at home.
My heart beats faster as it recalls
That handsome guide at Niagara
Falls.
I live and re-live a thousand times
o'er
The sound of the waves on the
Jersey shore.
I mingle 'again with the summer
gang,
I remember the songs we so often
sang.
And then in the midst of this remini scing,
To a question directed at me I am
listeni ng.
"Can you tell us the answer, now ,
Miss Doyle?"
Egads! My mind is in turmoil.
"Maybe I can w" I say as I stir ,
"If you'll tell me the question, sir."

STRICTL Y FOR
CO-EDS
by Mary Lou Todd
Our Homecoming dance proved
to be j ust what we expected — a
colorful event. I saw many beautif ul dresses which I'll mention to
y ou. Although the most outstanding color was black, knitted suits
were seen in soft , delicate shades.
Several girls wore black strapless dresses — Among them, Kitty
Mitchell with an attractive black
velvet creation. I might also men^
tion that Joan Enama wore a black
strapless taffeta with a pink and
black striped insertion of gathers
in the front of the blouse.
A great many of the dresses
were either trimmed with velvet,
or had a velvet blouse. That seems
to be one material which keeps its
popularity from winter to winter.
Mary Lou Kubic looked gay in
her lipstick red rayon taffeta. The
neckline was trimmed with black
velvet which fell over the shoulders and lay in bows; the waist fit
snug and the skirt fell in many
folds. Very attractive!!
With the first frost most of us
p ut away those spring coats and
get out our new winter garb.
While up in the girls dormitory
t he oth er after n oon , I caught a
preview of Clare Davis' n ew dark
grey full-length poodle coat. Here
is a coat that's really different. All
of the features contain yards and
yards of material. On the sleeves
are cuffs that turn up and the
back ends with a fish tail gathering. Clare will be sure to be warm
with the rolled collar. Three grey
buttons in a slanted position give
it that finishing touch.
Jean Skeeba has a slick , black
and white wool suit. The skirt
consists of approximately 55 small
pleats while the j acket is a blazer
style of winter white trimmed
with black around the collar and
pockets, Several tiny white pearl
buttons run from the waist to the
neck. Definitely a collegiate looking outfit!
Just a tip, if/you wish to double
your outfits. Try a wool bolero or
a deep velvet j acket of a neutral
shade. They mix equally well with
either full or new slim sheathtype skirts.

(Contintfed from last week)
The same afternoon , Ann and
her family went on an excursion
of modern Paris. On this tour they
became acquainted with a young
couple from India , who explained
many fascinating customs of their
native land.
Together with this couple, Ann
visited such well-known landmark s
as Eiffel Tower, Ar c de Triom phe,
Palais de Chaillot and the incomparable Notre Dame.
Each night about seven, the
streets begin to show life. People
started to come out of the offices,
shops , and factories. At ten, the
sidewalks were packed with tourists. It is said th at a Frenchman
cannot speak without using his
hands. "This must be true," says
Ann , "for they certainly use a
superfluous amount." A must for
tourists is a night ride through the
streets , gay with light, and filled
with brightly dressed people and
caberet music.
The third day was spen t in touring the castles of Louis XIV. The
trip to Versailles held the interest
of everyone.
Ann left Paris at eight o'clock
in the morning and arrived in
Germany that night at seven thirty. Several days were spent with
her relatives, and then the family
was off for more touring. It was
here they saw the Black Forest, in
all its splendor. It was here that
they saw the Rhine, and learned
the continental custom of indulging in coffee and cake at four each
afternoon . Some of Germany 's
bigger cities which Ann visited included Munich , Stuttgart, Heilbronn , and the very much devastated Pfzorheim. The city, because
of its industry during the last war,
was demolished. It is said that
92% of the city was destroyed in
one bombing.
In Munich they saw the famous
town hall clock. The Gengenbachs
also saw an exhibit of clocks from
the earliest possible models to the
modern "wind -them-once-a-year "
clocks.
Approximately a month later,
they went to Switzerland. Ann
found Switzerland "a fairy land. "
In Davos, they took a small lift to
the top of one oi the highest
mountains in that region. At the
altitude of ten thousand feet, one
could view the entire valley and
have the privilege of throwing
snowballs in July.

WALLER HALL
Individuality and lovely combinations of color highlighted the
scene in the winning rooms in the
annual room-j udging contest in
Waller Hall. "The Yellow Room"
would aptly describe the first-prize
room, that of Louise Schullery and
Patricia Edwards. These girls
chose matching yellow chenile
bedspreads and yellow plastic
drapes. They featured a rose motif
on their desk blotters and cushions,, On the wall were ivy plants
in lyre-shaped brackets, and perched on their beds were fluffy black
and white cats.
In the room winning second
prize, Doris Bowman and Barbara
Sherman chose blue and gray bedspreads, Their blue and gray plastic drapes had horizontal stripes,
and they had huge rugs of red and
blue. On the wall were blotters
covered with snapshots ' of their
favorite people. A highlight of the
room was a casual chair covered
in red-flowered fabric.
Nancy Unger and Irene Endler,
who won third prize, had matching
pink bedspreads and drapes featuring a lily-of-the-valley pattern.
An outstanding wall decoration
was a what-not shelf — varnished
by Nancy—filled with an abundance of ivy vines. The girls have
added a white wicker chair covered in pink plastic to their room—

We have all heard of smart

stories which I heard lately deserves , I believe, repetition. It
seems that a young girl of early

her piano lesson under the watch ful eye of her father. She was very
definitely not interested, in this
practice and lost no time in displaying her disapproval. Finally,
she stopped playing, turned around
to her father and said , "You know ,

power plant repairmen to the
punch . It sneaked in before the
new heating system was completed. Hope is held forth that said
system will find completion before low temperatures reach extremes.
My one consolation is to bear with
it , for suffering is, at times, good ,
for the soul.

I watched with great interest as
the ground keepers nailed a tightfitting wood cover over the fountain in the Waller Hall courts
"Boy," I said to myself , "am l\

the cracks in those boards to be I

thoughts still running through my
mind , I was informed that this?
wood covera ge was a form of pro-j

Collegiate Squirrels
If you have been observing the
squirrels which make their home
on the campus, you have undoubtedly noticed that they are busy
burying nuts and seeds at the base
of some of the trees, It is theii
instinct to guther and store these
as food for the wintortido. Bui
how do they go about finding these
buried morsels when the wlntei
comes and the campus is blanket'
ed with four to six inches of
snow ? Do they retain in memorj
those places where the nuts arc
burled ? No! The squirrels ' cran^
iums, unlike those of most college
students, are not large enough tc

Fifth Win of Five
Starts for Huskies
Coupling a spectacular aerial att ack , featuring rifle-armed Tom
SpaCk , and a bulwark defense
sparkled by the play of John
Nfemtz , Russ Verhousky, and
George Lambrinos, the local Huskie s shut out the Kutztown Golden
Avalanche 28-0 on the Berks County i»ridi>on.
For the second straight week
the passing of Spack has enabled
the Huskies to emerge victorious.
In la st week's f ray he threw 3
passes for scores, as he hit Charlie
Brennan, Verb Verhousky, and
Bob Thurston as they ran int o pay
dir t. He also scored, on a 10-yard
jaunt for the first local score.
Fi rst Quarter
This was the Redmen 's worst
period as both their defense and
off ense showed next to nothing.
The defense boys received and
marched the length of the field
b ut fizzled out on the Bloom 10.
In this drive, Bo Rainey was injured on an attempted tackle, and
he suffered a shoulder separation
which will "side line" him indefinitely . Near the end of the period,
Osevala and Lang pushed the ball
to the Kutztown 10.
Second Quarter
On the first play, Spack reversed
arid ran , untouched, to the end
zone , Dave Linkchorst converted,
and the score was 7-0. The locals
scored on a pass play later, but it
was called back, and the two
te ams were stymied until the four
minute mark when Spack threw
to Lang on the Bloom 40, to Lambrinos on the Kutztown 40, and to
Charlie Brennan for a touchdown.
Linkchorst added the point. Bloom
14-0 as the half ended.
Third Quarter
After a Redman tongue-lashing,
the t eam seemed to look bet t er ,
and after an exchange of pass inter ceptions and a 15-yard penalty
against the Avalanche, the Huskies found themselves on the Kutztown 30. Two running plays failed ,
and then Spack hit Verhousky for
the third touchdown, Linkchorst
adding the point. Score: 21-0.
Fourth Quarter
Barney Oseval a, who ran hard
all day, was replaced by Jack
Long, who cracked for two firsts
early in the period to put the stage
on the Kutztown 12 for Spack's
third scoring heave to Bob Thurston in the end zone for the final
tally ; Linkchorst's fourth conversion made it 28-0. That ended the
official scoring, but later , Al Boychuck electrified the crowd with a
60-y ard punt-return for a score,
which was nullified as the official
said he stepped out on the Kutztown 35.
Swiftly Speaking
Mary Ann Fink and Joanne
Heisley spent the weekend at
Annapolis where they attended a
dance.
LaRue Slicker received her engagement ring last Saturday. Best
wishes, LaRue.
Gloria Mazetti receives our sympathies this week. Gloria was in
an automobile accident last Saturday night. Sonny Ermish also receives our sympathies; he was
driving his new car.
Bob Rainey, a promising freshman football player, was in the
hospital recovering from an inj ury
incurred in the Kutztown game.
Dolores Doyle and Pat O'lough lin are two lucky lassies who have
celebrated their birthdays recently. How do we know ? By their
birthday cakes in the dining room,
of course.
Susie Havasta also celebrated
her birthday a few weeks ago but
was neglected cruelly by this
column. Susie is one woman who
really believes in the old adage
"There's a time and place for
everything." Just to prove it, Susie
fninted while visiting a friend at
Sunbury Hospital.
Something definitely new and
Interesting on campus is the quiet
listening hour Mr. Smith has begun in the music room In Science
Hall. This hour is devoted to the
playing of all types of music, An
interesting feature this last week
was authentic Indian music, This
hour is not only for music appreciation students but for all music
lovers, Thus far , the sessions have
been well attended , and all students and faculty are cordially
invit ed.
We are all sorry to see Twlla

Thanks to Clarion State Teachers College, the Huskies have moved
into first place in the tight State Teachers College Conference race. In
winning on Saturday against Kutztown by a 28-0 score, the Huskies
looked their worst in years; but they did manage to subdue the falling
Golden Avalanche. Meanwhile, mediocre Clarion stopped Indiana, bumping them right out of first place; this, coupled with the Maroon and
Gold win , brought about the switch in the top spot department.
After two weeks of futile prognosticating, the "crystal ball fog lifted,
showing1 a good 19 right, with only 4 wrong picks for the week. This
boasts the season percentage to 64.1, a full ten-point gain over last
week ? it alsa raises the seasons total to 43 correct selections and 24
mishaps. Games missed were upsets, except in the case of Georgia
Tech's slim win over Vanderbilt, and mighty Princeton 's rout of hapless

Tomorrow night the Huskies j ourney to Wilkes to battle the lukewarm Colonels of George Ralston. Wilkes will not be a pushover though .
They play their best game of the season every year against our undefeated Huskies ; and it will take heads up football on the part of the
Redmen if they are to go into the West Chester game next week undefeated. Let's all go to Wilkes-Barre to see another top-notch game
on the Husky schedule. Save your tonsils for next week, though. The
game of the year in Pennsylvania will soon take place. Talk has it that
the afternoon tilt with W.C. will be played in Berwick. Let's worry
about Wilkes now.

Collegiate Squirrels
( Continued from page 2)
enable them to remember or catalog information. Instead, the squirrel uses his sense of smell to locate the buried nuts. The sense of
smell is so well developed that
they are able to detect a nut even
when a foot of snow covers it.
Deer have been said to possess an
exceptionally keen nose which can
detect a hunter miles before the
nlmrod actually reaches the deer;
but little credit is given to the
squirrel for his remarkable ability,
especially the campus squirrel !
Those nuts which they search
out with their keen noses are not
always ones which the finder has
buried , but often those which have
been hidden by a brother squirrel
or by a blue-j ay. It is in this respect that squirrels are said to be
a great aid in reforestation , as
most students have learned in ecology. Many of the acorns and walnuts that have been hidden are not
found; these sprout during the
spring and grow into new trees.
Of course, reforestation is seld- .
om thought of as a campus activity, especially an activity in
which squirrels participate, but
this goes on each year in the country and hillsides, wherever there
are squirrels to be found,
Perhaps It should be mentioned
hero, while wo are discussing
squirrels, that recently one of the
instructors placed his text book on
the ground as he paused to look
about the campus, when he stooped over to pick up the book again ,
ho was amazed to soe one of the
squirrels gnawing at the pages.
Certainly the Instructor had a perfect righ t to assume that the
squirrel was trying to grasp some

Ben Franklin Holds
Hallowe 'en Program
All sorts of ghosts and goblins
were seen entering the Benjamin
Franklin Training School on Friday, October 26. The reason—the
annual Hallowe'en parties.
Each of the classrooms was
cleverly decorated with ugly old
witches, pumpkin men, owls, cats,
bats, skeletons, corn shocks, balloons, and j nck-o-lanterns. Most of
this work was done by the children themselves.
First on the program was guessIng who the masquerauders were,
Hallowe'en songs were then sung,
plays enacted , games enjoyed, and
prizes awarded.

attend classes and perhaps select
some of the nuts It might find

Football enthusiasts have been
wondering just how the scoring
system works in our Teachers
Conference. The point scoring is
based upon four games. If a team
play s more than four conference
games, it can select any four
games as a basis for its scoring,
j ust as long as the conference
games which the team lost and
tied are included. Suppose Team
A played six conference games,
winning four, losing one , and tying
one. Then it can pick any two of
its four victories, but the loss and
tie must be included in their record to determine the winner of the
conference.
There are two kinds of points on
which teams are rated; primary
points represent a team's playing
ability, while supplementary points
show the strength of the opposition. A total of 100 primary points
is awarded for each win, 50 points
for each tie, and 0 points for each
loss.
Supplementary points are added
to primary points as follows: (1)
ten points are added for each win
of each selected conference team
defeated by the team ranked. If
Team B defeats Team C which
had won two other conference
games, Team B gets 20 supplementary points in addition to the
100 primary points for the win.
(2) Five points are added for each
tie of each selected conference
team which has been defeated by
the team ranked. If Team B defeats Team D which had tied one
game in conference competition ,
Team B gains 5 supplementary
points. (3) Five points are added
for each win of each selected con(Continued on page 4)

Shape After Three
Week Layoff Period
Saturday night at 8 o'clock the
Kingston Stadiuhi will He the
scene of the fourth annual clash
between the favored BSTG Huskies and the Wilkes Colonels.
The Colonels return to the war
after a three week layoff * and
should be in fine physical condition. The Colonels' record is a deceiving 1 and 2, losing to St. Francis and Ithaca and upsetting, a
good University of Bridgeport. The
Colonels are graced wtih one of
the outstanding backs in regional
foot ball, tailback Al Nicholas. Last
year he almost upset the Huskies
applecart singlehanded with his
off-tackle thrusts. Immediately
following the game Nicholas will
be recalled by Uncle Sam for active duty; therefore keep your
eyes peeled for Nicholas. Also in
the same backfield is Eddie Davis,
All-Wyoming Valley from Plymouth. Davis shares passing and
running duties with Nicholas. At
one terminal will be big Al Molash
6' 2" and 212 lbs.
The present record for this an-,
nual clash stands 2-1 in favor of
the Huskies. In 1948 Bloomsburg
won 25-0 but in the opening game
of the '49 season the Colonels upset the dopsters by winning 20-7
at Plymouth. Last year the Huskies were too powerful, winning
27-7.
There are two differen t set s of
sounds echoing from the Wyoming
valley this week. One concerns
how beaten up the Colonels are
after a three-week layoff and the
other issues promises of setting up
(Continued on page 4}
Maroon and Gold Stars ? ? ? ?
John Dietz is one of the many
important cogs in the Husky football machine. John operates from
the quarter-back post and has
proven himself very capable of
handling the blocking assignments
which .are so essential to a successful single-wing attack. Besides his
good blocking, John has exhibited
an amazing pass-catching ability
in early games this year and this
has added considerably to the aerial assault of the Huskies. This is
John 's third year on the squad and
it is by far his best.
Charles Brennan , the lanky,
glue-fingered end, is playing his
first season with the Husky firststring after gaining valuable experience as a substitute during the
two preceding years. Charlie was
recommended to Coach Redman as
an outstanding pass-receiver and
his acrobatic catches in the first
five games this year are proof
enough of his ability. Charlie also
plays with the Husky defensive
platoon and it is seldom that opposing backs are able to skirt his
end for a large gain. Charlie is the
lightest starter for the Huskies,
but makes up for this lack with an
over-abundance of spirit.
One of the most promising
young backs on the Husky squad
this year is Bernard Mont. Bernie,
a sophomore, promises to be a real
triple-threat star for future Husky
teams. He can kick, pass, and run
with considerable ease and ability,
and is being used to great advantage in all three departments.
Bernie's main job this year is
kicking-off and he does an exceptional j ob ( averaging over 50 yds.).
Bernie . a very aggressive ballplayer , can be depended upon when the
chips are down and undoubtedly is
one of the keys to open doors for
future Husky victors.
Don Cesare, burley offensive
guard , is one of the more experienced starters for the Huskies. He
is a very good blocker and it is
often a key block by. him that sets
the Husky backs free for large,
gains. Don is particularly adept;
at down-field blocking which is
usually one of the hardest blocks
to make in a game. Don, who
came here as a transfer from
Scranton University, is playing his
last season for the Huskies and it
is undoubtedly one that he will
long remember.
Gene Morrison is one of the few
local boys on the Husky squad.
Genie, an end, plays his most important role for the team on the
practice during scrimmages as he
keeps the Husky regulars working
hard to perfect their blocking.
Gene has been a member of the
kick-off team for the last two
years and is usually in on the resulting tackle. This is Gene's third
year on the squad and he is sure
to see plenty of action before the
season is over.

Curren ts

Look, mama, at the funny man . . .
There 's the cartoon; just like I threatened it would be. That calculating expression is caused by the fact that without my glasses I'm
blind as the ref at the Homecoming game. Since the recent announcement in assembly concerning dining and stuff , I find that I won't have
to chew my spectacles after the state appropriation comes through. In
order to give an even more intelligent expression to my facial physiography (Hank Marini: Please note the big word.), the space where tho
cut now is will be left blank.
What price spirit . . .
Most Freshmen notice that there isn't as much school spirit in
college as in High school. I think they 're right. Without auguring the
point I'd like to observe a few observations. "Bo" Rainey was hospitalized as of last Saturday 's Kutztown game with a shoulder separation.
There was nothing half-hearted about the tackle he made when he inj ured his shoulder. Guys like Schaar, Sheehan , and Ruppell haven 't
been hobbling around here because they lack spirit. Let's make su re
that when other "Bo's" have to pay the price, we deliver the goods.
Meet the people . . .
There are numerous theories on how his nose became crooked and
no one can explain that buzzsaw twang which passes for a voice, but
everybody recognizes a character when they see one. Author of numerous "Rowleyisms " such as, "Pack your valise" which means get your
bag and bail, and other quaint sayings, too quaint to be printed , Mr.
Thoma s Rowley is Bloomsburg 's answer. Don 't ask "answer to what?"
If there is a question, he's the answer. Whether he'll admit it or not ,
he likes it here and expects to stay the full eight years necessary for
him to graduate.
Inspiration . . .
Having made short work of morning chow in the A.M. of Monday,
the 29th, I found myself leaning at my usual post—the window in the
wall acrossthe hall from the C.G.A. office. Without inspiration. Without
thought. Without sleep . . . When along came my friend and colleague
M. Jones. What to write about ? He didn't know. He looked out the
window. Men were raking leaves. "Write about the ground crew raking
leaves. Indifference. Bill Radzwich ankled up, Same question. Same
answer after viewing a window. Still indifferent. Then loping up came
Al Chiscon. "What to write About?" He looked out the window. "I
know, write a nice story about the ground crew raking leaves." I give
up ! !
On October 29, 1951, at 8:37 A.M., the ground crew of B.S.T.C. was
raking up beautiful, wet , soggy, sloppy, leaves.
Look out below . . .
Of all the current currents that flow around here, the one that
doesn't is the one that should flow through the two bulbs on the third
and fourth floor of the Noetling Hall fire tower. Not saying there's a
hazard involved in having no lights on steep stairs, but the third and
fourth floor residents of the men 's dorm want it known that Mr. Redman
can't hold them responsible for the loud splatterings of bodies after
eleven o'clock.
Watch out West Chester . . .
According to such indisputable sources as the Yale News, the
B.S.T.C. football team has been described as the "power of the East . . ."
and its games have been given such listing as, "In the other maj or game
in the East . . ." We know the News is jus t kidding, but we're not!
Suicide prevention . . .
The ground crew clapped a big wooden cap on the Waller Hall court
fountain. Gone are the colors and a darn good excuse for getting your
lady friend out on Long Porch of a starry evening. However, "cupid"
cramping is not the only reason for covering up tho animated pond; it
will also effectively prevent suicides after the mid-semester grades,
(note to Mr. Sharretts: Better cover the Lagoon too , or you'll have to
drag, it for bodies after exams.) On the other hand , it could be ju st to
prevent freezing.
Farewell for arms . ..
So a guy gets married and decides he's ready to settle down. He
has three years of college under his belt, and is in the midst of student
teaching. Then — bingo ! "Greetings ". Big, j ovial Ben Burness lost a
game of bingo recently and went the way of many before and many to
come. If this thing reaches its theoretical limits, B.S.T.C. may wind up
as another Bryn Mawr.

Being Organized
A photography club is in the
process of being formed on the
campus of B.S.T.C. The idea for
such a club originated with Maroon and Gold photographer Keith
Smith , who began the arrangements necessary to organize a new
extracurricular activity .
Before such an activity can become a purt of the college program , its constitution must bo
presented to the College Council
and the President , and the organization of the club must be approved by both.
Approximately twenty-eight interested persons attended a meeting to select a commute to draw
up a constitution. The following

The Bloomsburg Players, school
d ramatic organization under direction of Miss Alice Johnston , presented a one-act, play during the
regular assembly period on November 1.
"Teapot on the Rocks , " by Joh n
Kilp a tri ck , took place one afternoon in Spring in a small room
adj oining a larger tea room intended lor prospective guests.
The cast included Pat Taylor as
Daisy, Mary Ann Martz as Mae,
' i as Roy, Peggy DorSlim' Ruppc
as
Mrs. Castairs, Kitty
sava^e
Mitchell as Willy, and Alex Kubik
as the gas man. Also credited to
the success of the play arc David
Newbury and James Ciavaglia ,
stage manager , and Myrtle McGar^lc , pro mpter.
"Teapot on the Rocks" was a
fine example of the type of play
which is put on by the Bloornsburg
Players for their regular weekly
meetings. In this workshop manner , the members of the club organization obtain a fine opportunity
for dramatic experience in acting,
directing, and stage routine.
Civic Concert Will
Present Duo-Pianists
Thp second program of the year
in the schedule of the Bloomsburg
Civic Music Association will be
held in the Bloomsburg High
School Auditorium on Tuesday,
Nov. 6, at 8:30 P.M. A two-piano
concert will be p"e<-cn f od by ArUiur Fervante and Louis Teicher,
Duo-Pianists.
The program of this two-piano
team will consist nf numbers by
Bach , Warshaw. Rauel , Infante ,
S a i n t - S a e n s, Khachaturian , Debussy, Gershwin, and a fantasy
composed by the artists themselves.
One of the greatest difficulties
facing a piano duo is the task of
programming. Since so very few
works have been composed for two
pianos, such a team has a very
limited choice in selecting what it
will present to its audiences. At.
the same time , the pianists must
strive to satisfy their own ideals
of what they wish to play in their
concerts.
One of the members which will
render on November 6 was written
especially for them. Malvin Warshaw has been a closo friend of
both since their childhood days ,
and lie composed '"Crameriana "
for them , at thoiv request.
Their original composition is entitled "American Fantasy, " and
was based on " W h e n J o h n n y
Comos Marching I-Iome." The
pianists also will plr.y a group of
popular classics by Khachaturian ,
Debussy, and Gershwin , which
they transcribed for two pianos.
The programs of the Bloomsburg Civic Music Association ai'e
open only to members of the association. Bloomsburg State Teachcvs College purchases a bloc of
three hundred tickets, in order
that students of the college may
attend these concerts.

The Price of Success
What is it which brings success in life to one man , and
mediocrity or failure to his brother? It can ' t be men tal capacity.
There is not as much difference in our mentalities as is indicated
by the difference in performances .
The answer is, some men succeed because they cheerfull y
pay the price oi success while others , t h oug h t h ey cl aim am b ition
and a desire to succeed , ar e unwilling to pay that price.
The formula for success is —
To use all your courage to force yoursel f to concentrate on
the problem in hand ; to think of it deepl y an d constant ly; to stu dy
it from all ang les, and to plan ahead.
To have a high a nd sustain ed d etermination to ac h ieve w h at
y ou plan to ac comp lish , not on ly w h en con ditions are f avora bl e
to its accomplishment, but in spite of all adverse circumstances
which may arise.
To refuse to believe that there are any circumstances sufficient ly strong to defeat you in the accomplishment of your purpose.
Hard? Of course. That 's why so many n ever achieve success;
they yield instead to the siren call of the rut and remain on the
beaten paths that are for beaten men. Nothing of note has ever
been ac h ieve d with out consta n t en d eavor , some pain , an d ceas el ess
application of the lash of ambition .
That 's the price of success. Every man should ask himself:
Am I willing to endure the pain of this struggl e f or t h e rewar d s
an d t h e g lory that go with achievement? Or shall I accept the
uneasy and inadquate contentment which comes with mediocrity?

Rededication
Time: November 2 , 1951
Place : Corner of E. Main and Iron Streets , Bloomsburg, Pa.
Cast of Characters : You , your roommate, an d a few other members of the 'old gang. '
Action : Joe Jones , a rat her ordinary-looking fdlow , and one of
his friends pass by. You overhear a scrap of Joe 's conversation which goes something like this : "Wh y, one o f my
ancestors hel pe d d ump King George 's tea in t h e ocean at
the start of the Revolutionary War , an d his great grandson
died in the battle of Gettysburg. And . that isn 't all . My
grandfather Jones rests beneath a little white cross somewhere in France."
You turn to your friends with a knowing smile. Without
saying a word, it ' s quite evi de nt t h at you 've just put Joe in t he
egotistical , stuffed shirt class. So what if his family tree had a lot
or soldiers on it. America has had loads of soldiers in it 's h istor y
of 175 years as a nation.
, . But stop and think a minute. That 's an American you 're
laug hing at— a real American. A man who is justl y proud of his
heritage and realizes the terrific price that has been paid for his
freedom. To him , the American way of life is alive , not just something to read about in a history book. Alive because his own
people helped write the glorious story that is our American history.
We 'd be pretty safe in saying that Joe takes his role of a free
American citizen as seriously as most businessmen do the operation of their business,
But how about you? What are you doing to keep your homeland an independent nation? Or do you take it pretty much for
granted that America will never fall prey to any other type of
government? Just try telling that to "Old Uncle Joe. " This year
marks the one hundred-seventy-fifth anniversary of our Declaration of Independence, but Joe Stalin hates to see this kind of
record grow any longer. He 's not going to stand on the sidelines
and watch. Are you?
It mi ght not be a bad idea for all of us to take a new look at
our freedom. It has become such a commonplace thing to go to
the polls and vote that we scarcel y think of it as any kind of
freedom at all. The truth of the matter is , many of us regard it as
some kind of duty we 'd raj ther not bother with. But just let the
election returns show that everyone doesn 't vote the way we would
have , and the first thing we do is let out with a lusty gripe , to say
nothing of the name-calling we do in connection with those who
voted in such a displeasing manner, Okay, they voted , didn 't
they, and that 's every man s right to exercise as he himself sees
fit. By failing to exercise these rig hts, we may someday find ourselves without a right to exercise,
Voting isn 't the only thing we 're neglecting'- there are other
things—many of them. Together they are killing—yes, killing-—
our way of life, America, won 't you please wake up, now, before
it 's too late?
Nineteen hundred and fifty-one marks the anniversary of our
Declaration of Independence, Our history, as a nation, is a long
and glorious one, However, we cannot rest on our past laurels
and expect to go on as before, If we do , we are breaking the faith
with all the men who rest beneath the rows of white crosses the
world over; we are destroying the dreams of our forefa thers who
sacrificed their all to build America, Let 's not mark our 175th
anniversary with g lorious speeches and flag-waving alone. Let 's
do something to keep America a free and independent nation,
You a nd I , and all the rest of the students on this campus
hold the power to keep America alive and growing. Can you
honestly live with your own conscience if you let her die? Better
still , can you adjust your personal likes and dislikes , your beliefs ,
(AB )
and your way of living to Communism???
PART 2
As I sit here in this four o'clock
class,
My mind lives memories of the
summer past.
I dream of swimming and ice
cream cones,
I wish for the .life I live at home.
My heart beats faster as it recalls
That handsome guide at Niagara
Falls.
I live and re-live a thousand times
o'er
The sound of the waves on the
Jersey shore.
I mingle 'again with the summer
gang,
I remember the songs we so often
sang.
And then in the midst of this remini scing,
To a question directed at me I am
listeni ng.
"Can you tell us the answer, now ,
Miss Doyle?"
Egads! My mind is in turmoil.
"Maybe I can w" I say as I stir ,
"If you'll tell me the question, sir."

STRICTL Y FOR
CO-EDS
by Mary Lou Todd
Our Homecoming dance proved
to be j ust what we expected — a
colorful event. I saw many beautif ul dresses which I'll mention to
y ou. Although the most outstanding color was black, knitted suits
were seen in soft , delicate shades.
Several girls wore black strapless dresses — Among them, Kitty
Mitchell with an attractive black
velvet creation. I might also men^
tion that Joan Enama wore a black
strapless taffeta with a pink and
black striped insertion of gathers
in the front of the blouse.
A great many of the dresses
were either trimmed with velvet,
or had a velvet blouse. That seems
to be one material which keeps its
popularity from winter to winter.
Mary Lou Kubic looked gay in
her lipstick red rayon taffeta. The
neckline was trimmed with black
velvet which fell over the shoulders and lay in bows; the waist fit
snug and the skirt fell in many
folds. Very attractive!!
With the first frost most of us
p ut away those spring coats and
get out our new winter garb.
While up in the girls dormitory
t he oth er after n oon , I caught a
preview of Clare Davis' n ew dark
grey full-length poodle coat. Here
is a coat that's really different. All
of the features contain yards and
yards of material. On the sleeves
are cuffs that turn up and the
back ends with a fish tail gathering. Clare will be sure to be warm
with the rolled collar. Three grey
buttons in a slanted position give
it that finishing touch.
Jean Skeeba has a slick , black
and white wool suit. The skirt
consists of approximately 55 small
pleats while the j acket is a blazer
style of winter white trimmed
with black around the collar and
pockets, Several tiny white pearl
buttons run from the waist to the
neck. Definitely a collegiate looking outfit!
Just a tip, if/you wish to double
your outfits. Try a wool bolero or
a deep velvet j acket of a neutral
shade. They mix equally well with
either full or new slim sheathtype skirts.

(Contintfed from last week)
The same afternoon , Ann and
her family went on an excursion
of modern Paris. On this tour they
became acquainted with a young
couple from India , who explained
many fascinating customs of their
native land.
Together with this couple, Ann
visited such well-known landmark s
as Eiffel Tower, Ar c de Triom phe,
Palais de Chaillot and the incomparable Notre Dame.
Each night about seven, the
streets begin to show life. People
started to come out of the offices,
shops , and factories. At ten, the
sidewalks were packed with tourists. It is said th at a Frenchman
cannot speak without using his
hands. "This must be true," says
Ann , "for they certainly use a
superfluous amount." A must for
tourists is a night ride through the
streets , gay with light, and filled
with brightly dressed people and
caberet music.
The third day was spen t in touring the castles of Louis XIV. The
trip to Versailles held the interest
of everyone.
Ann left Paris at eight o'clock
in the morning and arrived in
Germany that night at seven thirty. Several days were spent with
her relatives, and then the family
was off for more touring. It was
here they saw the Black Forest, in
all its splendor. It was here that
they saw the Rhine, and learned
the continental custom of indulging in coffee and cake at four each
afternoon . Some of Germany 's
bigger cities which Ann visited included Munich , Stuttgart, Heilbronn , and the very much devastated Pfzorheim. The city, because
of its industry during the last war,
was demolished. It is said that
92% of the city was destroyed in
one bombing.
In Munich they saw the famous
town hall clock. The Gengenbachs
also saw an exhibit of clocks from
the earliest possible models to the
modern "wind -them-once-a-year "
clocks.
Approximately a month later,
they went to Switzerland. Ann
found Switzerland "a fairy land. "
In Davos, they took a small lift to
the top of one oi the highest
mountains in that region. At the
altitude of ten thousand feet, one
could view the entire valley and
have the privilege of throwing
snowballs in July.

WALLER HALL
Individuality and lovely combinations of color highlighted the
scene in the winning rooms in the
annual room-j udging contest in
Waller Hall. "The Yellow Room"
would aptly describe the first-prize
room, that of Louise Schullery and
Patricia Edwards. These girls
chose matching yellow chenile
bedspreads and yellow plastic
drapes. They featured a rose motif
on their desk blotters and cushions,, On the wall were ivy plants
in lyre-shaped brackets, and perched on their beds were fluffy black
and white cats.
In the room winning second
prize, Doris Bowman and Barbara
Sherman chose blue and gray bedspreads, Their blue and gray plastic drapes had horizontal stripes,
and they had huge rugs of red and
blue. On the wall were blotters
covered with snapshots ' of their
favorite people. A highlight of the
room was a casual chair covered
in red-flowered fabric.
Nancy Unger and Irene Endler,
who won third prize, had matching
pink bedspreads and drapes featuring a lily-of-the-valley pattern.
An outstanding wall decoration
was a what-not shelf — varnished
by Nancy—filled with an abundance of ivy vines. The girls have
added a white wicker chair covered in pink plastic to their room—

We have all heard of smart

seems that a young girl of early

her piano lesson under the watch ful eye of her father. She was very
definitely not interested, in this
practice and lost no time in displaying her disapproval. Finally,
she stopped playing, turned around
to her father and said , "You know ,

In these days of frigid temperatures , reliable rumor has it that
many dorm students are donning
these unmentionables. The same

Collegiate Squirrels
If you have been observing the
squirrels which make their home
on the campus, you have undoubtedly noticed that they are busy
burying nuts and seeds at the base
of some of the trees, It is theii
instinct to guther and store these
as food for the wintortido. Bui
how do they go about finding these
buried morsels when the wlntei
comes and the campus is blanket'
ed with four to six inches of
snow ? Do they retain in memorj
those places where the nuts arc
burled ? No! The squirrels ' cran^
iums, unlike those of most college
students, are not large enough tc

Fifth Win of Five
Starts for Huskies
Coupling a spectacular aerial att ack , featuring rifle-armed Tom
SpaCk , and a bulwark defense
sparkled by the play of John
Nfemtz , Russ Verhousky, and
George Lambrinos, the local Huskie s shut out the Kutztown Golden
Avalanche 28-0 on the Berks County i»ridi>on.
For the second straight week
the passing of Spack has enabled
the Huskies to emerge victorious.
In la st week's f ray he threw 3
passes for scores, as he hit Charlie
Brennan, Verb Verhousky, and
Bob Thurston as they ran int o pay
dir t. He also scored, on a 10-yard
jaunt for the first local score.
Fi rst Quarter
This was the Redmen 's worst
period as both their defense and
off ense showed next to nothing.
The defense boys received and
marched the length of the field
b ut fizzled out on the Bloom 10.
In this drive, Bo Rainey was injured on an attempted tackle, and
he suffered a shoulder separation
which will "side line" him indefinitely . Near the end of the period,
Osevala and Lang pushed the ball
to the Kutztown 10.
Second Quarter
On the first play, Spack reversed
arid ran , untouched, to the end
zone , Dave Linkchorst converted,
and the score was 7-0. The locals
scored on a pass play later, but it
was called back, and the two
te ams were stymied until the four
minute mark when Spack threw
to Lang on the Bloom 40, to Lambrinos on the Kutztown 40, and to
Charlie Brennan for a touchdown.
Linkchorst added the point. Bloom
14-0 as the half ended.
Third Quarter
After a Redman tongue-lashing,
the t eam seemed to look bet t er ,
and after an exchange of pass inter ceptions and a 15-yard penalty
against the Avalanche, the Huskies found themselves on the Kutztown 30. Two running plays failed ,
and then Spack hit Verhousky for
the third touchdown, Linkchorst
adding the point. Score: 21-0.
Fourth Quarter
Barney Oseval a, who ran hard
all day, was replaced by Jack
Long, who cracked for two firsts
early in the period to put the stage
on the Kutztown 12 for Spack's
third scoring heave to Bob Thurston in the end zone for the final
tally ; Linkchorst's fourth conversion made it 28-0. That ended the
official scoring, but later , Al Boychuck electrified the crowd with a
60-y ard punt-return for a score,
which was nullified as the official
said he stepped out on the Kutztown 35.
Swiftly Speaking
Mary Ann Fink and Joanne
Heisley spent the weekend at
Annapolis where they attended a
dance.
LaRue Slicker received her engagement ring last Saturday. Best
wishes, LaRue.
Gloria Mazetti receives our sympathies this week. Gloria was in
an automobile accident last Saturday night. Sonny Ermish also receives our sympathies; he was
driving his new car.
Bob Rainey, a promising freshman football player, was in the
hospital recovering from an inj ury
incurred in the Kutztown game.
Dolores Doyle and Pat O'lough lin are two lucky lassies who have
celebrated their birthdays recently. How do we know ? By their
birthday cakes in the dining room,
of course.
Susie Havasta also celebrated
her birthday a few weeks ago but
was neglected cruelly by this
column. Susie is one woman who
really believes in the old adage
"There's a time and place for
everything." Just to prove it, Susie
fninted while visiting a friend at
Sunbury Hospital.
Something definitely new and
Interesting on campus is the quiet
listening hour Mr. Smith has begun in the music room In Science
Hall. This hour is devoted to the
playing of all types of music, An
interesting feature this last week
was authentic Indian music, This
hour is not only for music appreciation students but for all music
lovers, Thus far , the sessions have
been well attended , and all students and faculty are cordially
invit ed.
We are all sorry to see Twlla

Thanks to Clarion State Teachers College, the Huskies have moved
into first place in the tight State Teachers College Conference race. In
winning on Saturday against Kutztown by a 28-0 score, the Huskies
looked their worst in years; but they did manage to subdue the falling
Golden Avalanche. Meanwhile, mediocre Clarion stopped Indiana, bumping them right out of first place; this, coupled with the Maroon and
Gold win , brought about the switch in the top spot department.
After two weeks of futile prognosticating, the "crystal ball fog lifted,
showing1 a good 19 right, with only 4 wrong picks for the week. This
boasts the season percentage to 64.1, a full ten-point gain over last
week ? it alsa raises the seasons total to 43 correct selections and 24
mishaps. Games missed were upsets, except in the case of Georgia
Tech's slim win over Vanderbilt, and mighty Princeton 's rout of hapless

Tomorrow night the Huskies j ourney to Wilkes to battle the lukewarm Colonels of George Ralston. Wilkes will not be a pushover though .
They play their best game of the season every year against our undefeated Huskies ; and it will take heads up football on the part of the
Redmen if they are to go into the West Chester game next week undefeated. Let's all go to Wilkes-Barre to see another top-notch game
on the Husky schedule. Save your tonsils for next week, though. The
game of the year in Pennsylvania will soon take place. Talk has it that
the afternoon tilt with W.C. will be played in Berwick. Let's worry

Collegiate Squirrels
( Continued from page 2)
enable them to remember or catalog information. Instead, the squirrel uses his sense of smell to locate the buried nuts. The sense of
smell is so well developed that
they are able to detect a nut even
when a foot of snow covers it.
Deer have been said to possess an
exceptionally keen nose which can
detect a hunter miles before the
nlmrod actually reaches the deer;
but little credit is given to the
squirrel for his remarkable ability,
especially the campus squirrel !
Those nuts which they search
out with their keen noses are not
always ones which the finder has
buried , but often those which have
been hidden by a brother squirrel
or by a blue-j ay. It is in this respect that squirrels are said to be
a great aid in reforestation , as
most students have learned in ecology. Many of the acorns and walnuts that have been hidden are not
found; these sprout during the
spring and grow into new trees.
Of course, reforestation is seld- .
om thought of as a campus activity, especially an activity in
which squirrels participate, but
this goes on each year in the country and hillsides, wherever there
are squirrels to be found,
Perhaps It should be mentioned
hero, while wo are discussing
squirrels, that recently one of the
instructors placed his text book on
the ground as he paused to look
about the campus, when he stooped over to pick up the book again ,
ho was amazed to soe one of the
squirrels gnawing at the pages.
Certainly the Instructor had a perfect righ t to assume that the
squirrel was trying to grasp some

Ben Franklin Holds
Hallowe 'en Program
All sorts of ghosts and goblins
were seen entering the Benjamin
Franklin Training School on Friday, October 26. The reason—the
annual Hallowe'en parties.
Each of the classrooms was
cleverly decorated with ugly old
witches, pumpkin men, owls, cats,
bats, skeletons, corn shocks, balloons, and j nck-o-lanterns. Most of
this work was done by the children themselves.
First on the program was guessIng who the masquerauders were,
Hallowe'en songs were then sung,
plays enacted , games enjoyed, and
prizes awarded.

attend classes and perhaps select
some of the nuts It might find

Football enthusiasts have been
wondering just how the scoring
system works in our Teachers
Conference. The point scoring is
based upon four games. If a team
play s more than four conference
games, it can select any four
games as a basis for its scoring,
j ust as long as the conference
games which the team lost and
tied are included. Suppose Team
A played six conference games,
winning four, losing one , and tying
one. Then it can pick any two of
its four victories, but the loss and
tie must be included in their record to determine the winner of the
conference.
There are two kinds of points on
which teams are rated; primary
points represent a team's playing
ability, while supplementary points
show the strength of the opposition. A total of 100 primary points
is awarded for each win, 50 points
for each tie, and 0 points for each
loss.
Supplementary points are added
to primary points as follows: (1)
ten points are added for each win
of each selected conference team
defeated by the team ranked. If
Team B defeats Team C which
had won two other conference
games, Team B gets 20 supplementary points in addition to the
100 primary points for the win.
(2) Five points are added for each
tie of each selected conference
team which has been defeated by
the team ranked. If Team B defeats Team D which had tied one
game in conference competition ,
Team B gains 5 supplementary
points. (3) Five points are added
for each win of each selected con(Continued on page 4)

Shape After Three
Week Layoff Period
Saturday night at 8 o'clock the
Kingston Stadiuhi will He the
scene of the fourth annual clash
between the favored BSTG Huskies and the Wilkes Colonels.
The Colonels return to the war
after a three week layoff * and
should be in fine physical condition. The Colonels' record is a deceiving 1 and 2, losing to St. Francis and Ithaca and upsetting, a
good University of Bridgeport. The
Colonels are graced wtih one of
the outstanding backs in regional
foot ball, tailback Al Nicholas. Last
year he almost upset the Huskies
applecart singlehanded with his
off-tackle thrusts. Immediately
following the game Nicholas will
be recalled by Uncle Sam for active duty; therefore keep your
eyes peeled for Nicholas. Also in
the same backfield is Eddie Davis,
All-Wyoming Valley from Plymouth. Davis shares passing and
running duties with Nicholas. At
one terminal will be big Al Molash
6' 2" and 212 lbs.
The present record for this an-,
nual clash stands 2-1 in favor of
the Huskies. In 1948 Bloomsburg
won 25-0 but in the opening game
of the '49 season the Colonels upset the dopsters by winning 20-7
at Plymouth. Last year the Huskies were too powerful, winning
27-7.
There are two differen t set s of
sounds echoing from the Wyoming
valley this week. One concerns
how beaten up the Colonels are
after a three-week layoff and the
other issues promises of setting up
(Continued on page 4}
Maroon and Gold Stars ? ? ? ?
John Dietz is one of the many
important cogs in the Husky football machine. John operates from
the quarter-back post and has
proven himself very capable of
handling the blocking assignments
which .are so essential to a successful single-wing attack. Besides his
good blocking, John has exhibited
an amazing pass-catching ability
in early games this year and this
has added considerably to the aerial assault of the Huskies. This is
John 's third year on the squad and
it is by far his best.
Charles Brennan , the lanky,
glue-fingered end, is playing his
first season with the Husky firststring after gaining valuable experience as a substitute during the
two preceding years. Charlie was
recommended to Coach Redman as
an outstanding pass-receiver and
his acrobatic catches in the first
five games this year are proof
enough of his ability. Charlie also
plays with the Husky defensive
platoon and it is seldom that opposing backs are able to skirt his
end for a large gain. Charlie is the
lightest starter for the Huskies,
but makes up for this lack with an
over-abundance of spirit.
One of the most promising
young backs on the Husky squad
this year is Bernard Mont. Bernie,
a sophomore, promises to be a real
triple-threat star for future Husky
teams. He can kick, pass, and run
with considerable ease and ability,
and is being used to great advantage in all three departments.
Bernie's main job this year is
kicking-off and he does an exceptional j ob ( averaging over 50 yds.).
Bernie . a very aggressive ballplayer , can be depended upon when the
chips are down and undoubtedly is
one of the keys to open doors for
future Husky victors.
Don Cesare, burley offensive
guard , is one of the more experienced starters for the Huskies. He
is a very good blocker and it is
often a key block by. him that sets
the Husky backs free for large,
gains. Don is particularly adept;
at down-field blocking which is
usually one of the hardest blocks
to make in a game. Don, who
came here as a transfer from
Scranton University, is playing his
last season for the Huskies and it
is undoubtedly one that he will
long remember.
Gene Morrison is one of the few
local boys on the Husky squad.
Genie, an end, plays his most important role for the team on the
practice during scrimmages as he
keeps the Husky regulars working
hard to perfect their blocking.
Gene has been a member of the
kick-off team for the last two
years and is usually in on the resulting tackle. This is Gene's third
year on the squad and he is sure
to see plenty of action before the
season is over.

Curren ts

Look, mama, at the funny man . . .
There 's the cartoon; just like I threatened it would be. That calculating expression is caused by the fact that without my glasses I'm
blind as the ref at the Homecoming game. Since the recent announcement in assembly concerning dining and stuff , I find that I won't have
to chew my spectacles after the state appropriation comes through. In
order to give an even more intelligent expression to my facial physiography (Hank Marini: Please note the big word.), the space where tho
cut now is will be left blank.
What price spirit . . .
Most Freshmen notice that there isn't as much school spirit in
college as in High school. I think they 're right. Without auguring the
point I'd like to observe a few observations. "Bo" Rainey was hospitalized as of last Saturday 's Kutztown game with a shoulder separation.
There was nothing half-hearted about the tackle he made when he inj ured his shoulder. Guys like Schaar, Sheehan , and Ruppell haven 't
been hobbling around here because they lack spirit. Let's make su re
that when other "Bo's" have to pay the price, we deliver the goods.
Meet the people . . .
There are numerous theories on how his nose became crooked and
no one can explain that buzzsaw twang which passes for a voice, but
everybody recognizes a character when they see one. Author of numerous "Rowleyisms " such as, "Pack your valise" which means get your
bag and bail, and other quaint sayings, too quaint to be printed , Mr.
Thoma s Rowley is Bloomsburg 's answer. Don 't ask "answer to what?"
If there is a question, he's the answer. Whether he'll admit it or not ,
he likes it here and expects to stay the full eight years necessary for
him to graduate.
Inspiration . . .
Having made short work of morning chow in the A.M. of Monday,
the 29th, I found myself leaning at my usual post—the window in the
wall acrossthe hall from the C.G.A. office. Without inspiration. Without
thought. Without sleep . . . When along came my friend and colleague
M. Jones. What to write about ? He didn't know. He looked out the
window. Men were raking leaves. "Write about the ground crew raking
leaves. Indifference. Bill Radzwich ankled up, Same question. Same
answer after viewing a window. Still indifferent. Then loping up came
Al Chiscon. "What to write About?" He looked out the window. "I
know, write a nice story about the ground crew raking leaves." I give
up ! !
On October 29, 1951, at 8:37 A.M., the ground crew of B.S.T.C. was
raking up beautiful, wet , soggy, sloppy, leaves.
Look out below . . .
Of all the current currents that flow around here, the one that
doesn't is the one that should flow through the two bulbs on the third
and fourth floor of the Noetling Hall fire tower. Not saying there's a
hazard involved in having no lights on steep stairs, but the third and
fourth floor residents of the men 's dorm want it known that Mr. Redman
can't hold them responsible for the loud splatterings of bodies after
eleven o'clock.
Watch out West Chester . . .
According to such indisputable sources as the Yale News, the
B.S.T.C. football team has been described as the "power of the East . . ."
and its games have been given such listing as, "In the other maj or game
in the East . . ." We know the News is jus t kidding, but we're not!
Suicide prevention . . .
The ground crew clapped a big wooden cap on the Waller Hall court
fountain. Gone are the colors and a darn good excuse for getting your
lady friend out on Long Porch of a starry evening. However, "cupid"
cramping is not the only reason for covering up tho animated pond; it
will also effectively prevent suicides after the mid-semester grades,
(note to Mr. Sharretts: Better cover the Lagoon too , or you'll have to
drag, it for bodies after exams.) On the other hand , it could be ju st to
prevent freezing.
Farewell for arms . ..
So a guy gets married and decides he's ready to settle down. He
has three years of college under his belt, and is in the midst of student
teaching. Then — bingo ! "Greetings ". Big, j ovial Ben Burness lost a
game of bingo recently and went the way of many before and many to
come. If this thing reaches its theoretical limits, B.S.T.C. may wind up
as another Bryn Mawr.
