Seniors Discuss
Commencement,
Ball Activities

With Commencement activities
and Banquet
and the Senior Ball
less tha n three • short months
away, the Senior Class held an
important "^meeting in Carver Auditori um at 2 P.M. on Friday , February 22 , in order to plan for
coming events.
presiden t Tom Anthony presided over the meeting, which lasted
over an hour and a half. Members
of the class were measured for
caps and gowns, and orders were
taken for name cards and Commencement announcements. Any
Senior who was absent from the
meeting is to see committee chairmen and take care of these details.
Seniors were asked to state the
nu mber of friends and relatives
they expect to attend the Comm en cement ex ercises', so that the
nu mber of reserved seats necessary can be computed. If this
nu mber would not fill the auditorium , attendance will be open to
all those who wish to attend.
Suggestions — without comment
—for ?i class memorial were received. Among the suggestions
were : a scholarship, a college
lodge , auditorium curtains, and—
well on its way to becoming a
classic—a bronze Husky.
Afte r nomin ations were made
for May Queen and her court , the
schedule for Comm en cement week
was announced. The Senior Honor
Assembly and Ivy Day ceremony
will be held on Wednesday, May
21. The Senior Ball and Banquet
will take place on Thursday, May
22. On May 25, the Baccalaureate
service will take place, with Commencement on May 26.
Joyce MacDougall, Ivy Day
chairman , then took over the
meeting. It was decided that the
Ivy Day ceremony be held at Centennial Gymnasium in the evening; in case of rain, the event can
then be held indoors. Seniors
agreed that they would like an
informal get-together and dance
afterwards; after much debate, it
was decided that this affair be
open to anyone who wishes to
attend.

Faculty Travels
To High Schools
For Recruitment

One of our college's many activities is the operation of an extensive high school visitation program. The obj ect of this program
i s t he selection of high sch ool
seniors for the teaching profession.
During this second semester, a
number of faculty members from
the college have visited 70 high
schools in L u z e r n e , Columbia,
Northumberland , Dauphin , Snyder, Lackawanna, and Schuylkill
Counties. They have spoken to
over 3,500 high school seniors ;
about 500 of these have indicated
some interest in attending Bloomsburg State Teachers College. The
faculty members participating In
this program speak with high
school seniors about the opportunities in the teaching profession
and facilities offered at Bloomsburg for preparation in the profession.
*
Visits are planned to at least 25
additional high schools during the
next few weeks. In addition to
these school visits, the College has
participated in high school career
conferences and college night pro grams at York, Williamsport , Lebanon , Harrisburg, Shamokin , Reading, Pottstown , and Bloomsburg.
It has also accepted invitations to
participate In programs in Turbotville, West Pittston , Montoursville, Mlllersburg, and Sunbury.
Since 1946, a period of six years,
the program has been under the
direction of Dean Hoch. He plans
a further Intensification of this
program for the remainder of the
semester.

Science Club Touvs
Dillon Greenhouses

On Thursday, February 15, at
3:00 P.M. members of the Science
Club wont on a tour of Dillon 's
greenhouses.
Most impressive were the seven
foot rose plants which are the
chief flowers grown there. Amidst
the array of color from the blooms
of carnations, snap dragons, and
roses, the club members turned
their attention to the beds In
which those flowers were grown ,

Regular Meeting
0/ Pi Omega Pi
Held Recently
The regular meeting of our local
chapter of Pi Omega Pi was held
in the social rooms of Science
Hall , Thursday, February 21.
After the preliminary business
of the meeting had been discharged, the new business discussed included the possibility of obtaining
more service key points to be distributed among the deserving
members of the fraternity. This
problem was turned over to a
committee appointed by the president which will then report its
findings to the Awards Committee
of the college for approval. Committee members appointed are
Wilma Jones, Betty Speal, and
Charles Pease.
In addition , a report was made
by Dick Knause, editor of the
newsletter that is being written
to be sent to our chapter alumni
and also to other member chapters of Pi Omega Pi. A call for
more volunteers to help in this
work was made and a number of
members offered their services for
this project .
It was suggested that all freshmen be made aware of the fact
that in addition to the necessary
scholastic grades needed to be
eligible for joining the fraternity,
they also need two semesters of
belonging to the Business Education Club to their credit. This is a
"must" in the list of requirements.
Following the business meeting,
a program with Ed Cunfer in
charge was presented. This was
in the form of a quiz show with
the newly initiated members taking part. The meeting was brought
to a close with the serving of re, freshments by Midge Wrzesnsiwskt
and Wllma Jones.

Would You Like a Mink Coat ?
This is America , land of the brave and the tree. Here anyone can grow up to be President , and almost anything else he
happens to cherish the dream of being. Here the people themselves choose their leaders , and elect their own government officials by means of free elections; and here the mink coat became
tainted with a bit of political corruption. Not that our mink coats
aren 't just as attractive as they once were, but the connotations of
the article have changed a great deal. Why?
This is our government , and we have every ri ght to know
just what is going on in that government. In addition to this, if
something has gone wrong with it, we are as much to blame as
anyon e else , for we did our part in establishing that government
and in giving it the power it possesses today. Have we reached
the point where we cannot tru st ourselves and the people whom
we choose to run our political affairs? Or has money become so
vital a part of our American way of living that our officials are
forced to place it ahead of their sworn duties of office? Could it
be that we the people , have allowed our own personal and business
dealings with each other to become the wrong type of examples
for our leaders; for it is not alwavs the one who holds the title of
leader that leads the way. Just what has happened , and what are
we going to do about it. for it is plain that the time for action is
here.

You know , shocking as it may seem , you , yourself , may be
among that group that bears the title "Po litically Corrupt "! This
is not an accusation; it is merelv a statement of a fact so many
of us would rather not face. Your argument may be that you
have nothing to do with it. You may not even be old enoug h to
vote. You may entertain no political aspirati ons of any type. So
far as you 're concern ed, you didn ' t start it , an d t h ere 's not muc h
you can d o to stop it. An d you may be right on every count.
But how about the fellow down the street, w h o is ta k ing
advantage of his position to see that everyone thinks just the
way he does? Or perhaps the manner in which you arrived at
y our pr esent position o f pr esti ge? Was it what you knew , or
whom -you knew? A lot of jobs are passed out in the same way .
It would be simply wonderful if all the political corruption in this
nation were concentrated in Washington ; then we could wipe it
out with relativel y littl e trouble—another election would do the
trick . But such is not the case, unfortunatel y . Some of it is here
in Bloomsburg, and in all the little towns and villages of America.
If you 're going to do anything about it , start your fig ht on your
own doorstep.
(Continued on page 4)

Time To Live !

America is busy. Pennsylvania is busy. Bloomsburg is busy,
and above all, you are busy. There are important things to be
done, and you are going to see that they get done. You 're absolutel y rig ht , but are you sure that you 've chosen the things which
are reall y the important ones to work for? An old Irish prayer
may answer this question for you more easily than you have ever
anticipated that it could be answered. This very worthy prayer ,
of which the author is unknown , considers the following things as
the fundamentals of living a full y-rounded , happy, worthwhile life.
The title of the prayer is Take Time for Everything , and it
pleads for following rules :
Take Time to Work— It is the price of success. That test
takes up only one nig ht of your life ; don 't be afraid to stud y for
it— think of the harvest you will reap when semester grades are
issued.
Take Time to Think— It is the source of power. You are
young ; thinking now will enrich your life later. It costs you
nothing to maintain a clear mind that functions constantly.
Take Time to Play—It is the secret of perpetual youth.
You are living the best part of your life here in college—why not
make the best of it? Take part in the activities carried on at
school. If you fail , you 'll look back with regret later.
Take Time to Read— It is the foundation of wisdom. Knowledge docs not come from textbooks alone , student. It comes from
such great novels and literary works as Francis Parkinson Keyes '
Came a Cavalier, and her famous book , Also the Hills, It is enrooted in the works of Shakespeare , Long fellow, and Hawthorne.
Read their works—now—while they are at your fingertips!
Take Time To Be Friendly—It is the road of happiness.
Life would not be worth living if it were not for the invaluable
friends who brig hten it. A friendly smile never hurt anyone.

STRICTL Y FOR
CO-EDS
by Mary Lou Todd
Many favorable comments have
been ma de to the effe ct th a t the
Freshman Mardi Gras was one of
the best Frosh Hops .we 've ever
witnessed. This was partly due to
the lovely array of gowns, even
though many people overlook this
when telling of the success of such
\\ dance. When we mention the
decorations, we m u stn 't forget the
subj ect of gowns, for this gives all
the color to the evening. Most of
the gowns were of nylon net.
Dolores Doyle was almost like a
dream in a full ballerina length
affair of white nylon net trimmed
with , what appeared to be
a lac*
trimming. At least that' *s how i;
looked to me. The color was e pecially flattering to D.D. because
of her dark hair. Something new
in the line of accessories is a
rhinestone necklace which can be
worn in three different ways—as a
necklace, a triple strand bracelet ,
and as a dogcollar. Pretty handy
things to have be it for a formal ,
or j ust for dress.
And now back to the classroom.
Irene Cichowicz is smart looking
in her separate outfit of taupe and
light tan. Starting at the top we
see a light tan peter pan collar
and inserts going down under the
arm of a taupe wool j ersey threequarter length sleeved blouse. The
tan is repeated in five tiny buttons
running down the front of the
blouse. Next, we find a light tan
straight skirt with a kick pleat in
front and two round patch pockets. Irene makes the outfit complete by wearing a pair of low cut,
ligh t tan suede flat shoes haying
brown leather straps—five of them
to be exact. There are two criss
crossed down near the toes and
one which buckles across the instep. Really in style !
Nancy Lou Rhoades is well
dressed in a black faille dress
having a tight round neck and a
pencil skirt. The waist is sleeveless. The dress can be worn with
or without a pink faille jacket of
the bell boy style. It has threequarter length sleeves with a
small cuff and a V neckline.
Nancy Lou completes her outfit by
wearing black suede pumps. Pretty chick, wouldn 't you say so?
I n th e Mar ch issu e of Glamou r
magazine there are some helpful
hin ts for the different types of
figures and what clothes or types
of clothes are most flattering for
each type. They claim that the
wide belts should be used to accent
the tiny waist since they are so
f ashion-wise. I could go on and
give you a resume of the article
but I'm afraid the editor of M.&G.
wouldn't appreciate that very
much . . . would you Al? Orders
f rom headquarters!
I can tell you of a new style (or
should I say an old style which
has been revived). It's the idea of
putting a petticoat underneath one
of these coat dresses and letting it
show in the front. Then , too, they
are using what is called a j etpropelled neckline. The idea is to
button your suit j acket or wear a
dress with a bare or plunging
neckline and then fill in the wide
open spaces with a bold expanse
of dickey or scarf juttin g forward
in a sharp profile.

Hansel and Gretel

Principal characters of tho operetta presented In the Training

Excuse Me, Please!

Oh , my mistake, I thought I heard someone saying "Excuse me,
please!" You know, that really shouldn 't have been a mistake ; you
almost made Mary lose her balance. Of course, you didn't mean to, but
j ust the same, you did.
Not only do we find a sad lack of manners on the collegiate level,
but society in general has become very lax in its consideration for other
people. College students owe it to themselves and to society to cultivate
manners of which they can be proud. We here at B.S.T.C. are no exception. Let's make a tour of the campus and get a first-hand view of
some of our collegi a te1 mannerisms which need improvement.
As the alarm sounds off at seven, you very sleepily arise from that
comfortuble bed that you don 't get much chance to sleep in , fumble
around a bit for your towel, and make your way/down the hall to get
washed for breakfast. Are you one of those cheerfu l early morning
birds who greets your friends with a loud "Hi" just to make sure they
wake up? At that point , you'll p robably be a much more appreciated
person if you employ a soft "Good Morning. " (p articularly by those very
fortunate individuals who escaped the distress of an eight o'clock class. )
Goodness, where did the time all go? If you don 't hurry, you 'll
have to gulp your breakfast or maybe even skip it. Well, there's on e
sure way to make sure that Art will wait for you, and that's to scream
y our way down the hall to the elevator. Perhaps it's best we omit the
words used to describe you by those still making an effort to catch j ust
a little more sleep.
Lucky you, you made it to class j ust in time to get your conversation with your neighbor before the instructor can get launched into
his lecture. Of course, he won't mind, and why should anyone else. The
instru ctor only spent a few hours on that lecture and the grades of your
fellow students only depend on what goes on in class ? So what ? That
date you had with Johnny last night was much more important , and
I'm sure the instructor will appreciate a nice theme on Johnney 's
dimples and cute remarks.
Ah , yes ! It's almost noon , and the rapidly forming lunch line is a
perfect opportunity to display your good (or bad) manners. Remember,
bucking the line may get you in first today, but what will your attitude
be tomorrow when someone shoves himself in front of you ?
Now , how about your eating habits ? Food that is gulped may taste
the same and may even save you a few seconds, but my, how Unappetizing for that person sitting across from you who is almost forced
to watch you eat! Guess where he 's going to sit next time ?
The day wears on and you fit from one class to another, little
realizing the habits you are forming or the impressions you are leaving
as you meet person after person. Did you ever consider being late for
class as poor etiquette ?
When it's time for the evening meal and you don your better "togs",
do you use manners befitting them ? Etiquette should be something not
extremely formal, but natural. It's only through practicing good manners daily that we really became socially efficient individuals.
Perhaps you think this doesn't sound much like freedom; but your
freedom ends where the other fellow 's begins, and begins just where
som eone else's ends. If th other fellow doesn't stop where yours ' should
begin, you may be left without any at all. We're all guilty, yours truly
being no exception whatever, but it isn't too late to mend. So next
time you're tempted to walk into a class late, slurp your soup, or buck
the line, remember — your manners are showing. How do they look ?
(A. B.)

Battle of the Tresses

LIFE featured them, and now Bloomsburg has adopted them. You
ask what ? The poodle and the horsetail. Of course you have seen them
and formed your opinion — whether it be favorable or not. Some say
that they wonder what will appear the next time a fellow whistles—the
girl or the haircut !
The people who wear these hair styles are extremists. It's either
one extreme or the other—short, very short—or long, very long.
Just as the wearers of poodles and horsetails are extremists, you
can be an extremist in your college life. Your interests in Bloomsburg
and all its activities may be, like t he sleek , well-organized horsetails—
long and deep-rooted. Or like the poodle, your spurts of enthusiasm
may be, like the poodle—short, bri ef , and casual. This kind of person
glows with excitement, but the glow too soon simmers down.
So many of our students have come to the point where they no
longer suggest, or show any response to the activities planned. Don't
be one of those who sit back and growl ; you can snap the reins and
start the carriage rolling. Show enthusiasm. Did you know that enthusiasm can spread as fast as fire ? Like fire , enthusiasm has two
aspects—one harmful and the other helpful. B.S.T.C. has very little
harmful enthusiasm, and j ust about as much constructive reaction.
Make people want to do things. If the few with enthusiasm who are
left here on the campus lost their excitability, all dances, tournaments,
and such will soon drop from existence. B.S.T.C. will not be known as
the "Friendly College on the Hill," but the "Dead College on the Hill."
If you are one of the poodle specie—unresponsive, unenthusiastic,
unambitious, with that "Dead pan " look, change the cut , switch the
style, and j oin in on all you can. You are paying for it, so why not
benefit by it?
Let' s make the horsetail style of doing things the permanent style
here at Bloom.
P.S. No offense meant to the poodle cuts here on the campus. Just a
(A. G.)
means of .getting the "poodlers " of the school to read this.

'Mardi Gras

New Orleans and the Mardi Gras;
The crowning of a queen ;
The thrill of an evening of dancing;
And music to complete the scene.
Two hundred waited and listened ,
Eight hearts for a moment stood
still.
The silence spread like a cover
As romantic hearts drank their
fill.
The orchestra struck up a fan-faro
As the procession came through
the door.
Four hundred eyes turned to watch
them
As they started down the floor.
The gowns billowed and rustled
While tho jewelry twinkled and
shone.
The escorts were equally nervous ,
Brave confidence from them had
flown.
The audience made not a whisper,
Soft music was the one sound
alone,
As each of the girls and her escort
Marched up past the throne.
Then, as they all assembled,
Tho final moment drew near
Here was the Queen of the Mardi
Gras
And the now Coed of the Year.
Yes, it was a time of great excitement
And Phyllis' heart will thrill
When 'ero she looks back and remembers
That college dance 'on the hill 1,

Marcy Morgan and Mickey Belock have hung a Venetian shade

Mary Ellen Henning and Ruthie

I Erickson Paces
I
Huskies to 90-69
H
I Win Over Harpur
H
The Bloomsburg Huskies made
¦
it 7 in a row and a driving, blazing
¦
finish to a top-performance season
B as they traveled to New York
state to win over the Harpur Colonials, 90-69 last Saturday night.
With "Deacon " Doug Ericson
pecking away from the pivot post
and gathering a total of 26 points,
the H u ski es m a r ched t o a narrow
40-31 lead at half-time and then
cut loose after half-time to a commanding head which they never
lost , giving Coach Harold Shelly
ample time to use all his players
and to experiment with combination s for next season. Ericson 's
26 point effort tops all Husky
bighs for the year and provided
the big center with his best game
of the season as he combined his
control of the score book and the
control of the boards in a brilliant
display of both offensive and defensive play.
Saturday 's win gave the Shellymen an overall 12 win 4 loss record for the year. (Of all the "predi ct ors" only Frank Furgela guessI
m ed this before the season). It gave
I the genial meteor of the hard
! wood his best season since coming
i to the Husky den. All four of his
| team 's losses were on foreign
; courts in the early stages of the
| season, but they defeated this jinx
i and roared down the final stretch
I and won their last seven games ;
< the final three climaxed by Satur1 day 's win over Harpur, were play| ed away from Centennial Gym.
j
In beating the Colonials it gave
i the Huskies a clean slate oygr the
I Ne w- Yorkers in their 4 game
I¦ series. Only once have the locals
really experienced trouble against
this squad and that was on their
I last visit to Triple Cities last year,
when the Maroon and Gold came
\ away with a 72-70 overtime win.
; In the other three meetings be! tween the two, the Huskies have
; had pretty much their own way ;
: but the early-season games be\ tween the schools have not been
\ the smoothest ever played.
Last week's contest ended the
i active playing of two of the older
I members of the Husky squad.
Chuck Daly and Bill Byham moved out of collegiate competition
when the final whistle blew last
; week, althought they had both
3 departed toward the locker room
before the game was over. With
\ their departure it leaves Shelly
I with 3 of the starters and all of
i the de-luxe Husky reserves for
duty next season. Leading the
i pack will be the "d addy " of them
\ all in the person of iDavey Link, chorst. They will be aided by Al
I Williams and the towering Doug
< Erickson in forming the nucleus of
next year's squad.
;
This article, supposed to enlightI en the reader on the Huskies victory over Harpur last Saturday
night, does not present, all the fine
details of the game; it gives an
overall picture of what the game
meant to the Husky picture. The
points were distributed among the
'¦ Husky cagers as follows : Ericki son, 26; Daly, 26; Linkchorst , 6;
Williams, 8; Byh am, 8; Gerhard ,
9; Ondrula, 8; Ksanznak , 7; Boychuck, 1; Shuttlesworth , 2; Betz, 4.

STARTS SATURDAY

WlanLHOLlNf^i

^^^BK ^^ TM&tiS ^itf ^^^^^ i^U^^^^^^

The short basketball season closed its victorious curtain last Saturday evening at Endicott , New York when the powerful, high-scoring
Shellymen dumped Harpur College for the second time this season. This
ended the campaign and gave the Huskies one of their best records in
the last two decades, and also one of their longest win streaks in many
a day. The final record reads, twelve wins against only four losses. The
final winning streak was seven consecutive victories—truly an accomplishment par excellent for a team that seemed to be hanging in the
doldrums during the initial part of the seaspn.
THe only four teams that the Huskies lost to were Lock Haven,
Millersville, M ansfi eld , and Kutztown. Three of these reversals could
have gone the other way in favor of the Shelly crew, but they did not.
The only big loss was to Lock Haven on the Bald Eagle court, where
our rival birds just can't seem to lose to anyone. Another feat was that
no teacher foe dumped the Huskies twice this season—surprising, considering the tough opposition the Huskies have encountered for the last
three months. It's unfortunate that the schedule wasn't a little longer
just for the sake of seeing if the 80-90 point locals could continue their
amazing scoring spree, and also continue their versatile winning ways.
A final note of congratulations goes to every member of the highminded Huskies and their top-notch coach, Harold Shelly, and assistants.
Maybe more seasons like the one j ust completed will merit a longer
basketball card in the future.
The exciting High SGhool Invitational Tournament opened its doors
in the initial evening of two weeks of forthcoming cage warfare next
Friday night. Many fine high schools are competing and in addition to
the large turnout expected from the high schools and their supporters ,
large throngs of college students are expected to pour into Centennial
Gymn asium in the next few weeks to see the games. John Hoch , tournament director , had a rather difficult time scheduling top class A teams
but now that particular race seems to fie the most interesting one of the
three classes competing. And speaking of class A, Berwick should be
replaced by a new champ for the 1952 melee. This is another of our
college events; let's support this affair just as well as we supported the
Husky hoopsters during the last few home tilts of the past campaign.

Shellymen Tr ample
On Wilke s, 83-66

On the night of February 20 the
Huskies trounced the Wilkes Cagers to the tune of 83-66, proving '
th a t th eir fir st wi n ov er th e
Colonels, 75-71, wasn 't j ust luck.
Playing in the modern . Wilkes
Gy m "in Wilkes-Barre, the Bloom
cagers tied the score 16-16 at the
end of the first quarter. Then our
'earn opened up in the second
half. Before the Wilkes hoopsters
knew what happened , the count
read 24-16 in favor of B. S. T. C.
Continuing this rapid pace, with
Byham and Williams connecting
on lay-ups and field goals, the
"Shellymen " took a 40-28 lead into
the third quarter.
Bob Gerhard led the way with
two field goals and a foul conversion and went on to share top
scoring honors with hook-shot
artist Big Bill Byham. Gerhard
also played stellar ball under the
boards and amassed his total in
17 minutes of play.
At the close of the third period,
the Huskies, with Byham and
Daly setting the pace, widened the
margin to 19 points. But the
Colonels , led by Len Bartroney,
rallied strongly in the fourth , cuttin? the edge to 10 points at 71-61
midway in the period.
Bob Gerhard, playing a terrific
game, again pulled our cagers out
of danger , sinking three field goals
and three "charity " shots before
leaving the game on personals.
Before the game, it was called
to the attention of the crowd that
two local toys were playing with
the "teachers" — those two being
Al William s, Na n ticoke, and Jerry
Kopec, Forty Fort.

March 7 will mark the initial
opening of the 25th Annual
Bloomsburg State Teachers College Invitational Basketball Tournament.
Preliminary preparations are
well under way, and Mr. John
Hoch, together with a student
committee, has been busy arranging a fine array of hardwood talent
to provide plenty of action in the
three-class play. Again class C
entries have stacked up highly,
with a current total of 18 seeking
berths. The group includes: West
Wyoming—last years titlests, Butler Township, Ringtown, Huntington Twp., Locust Twp., FallsOverfield , Monroe Twp., Dalton,
Tremon t, Dushore, Gir ard sville ,
Hughes ville , Shippton , Branch
Twp., and Millersburg. Catawissa
and Nescopeck are seeking entry,
but choice will depend on County
League play-offs. Since only six
teams will represent Class C, participants will be selected by past
records and competitive achievement.
A hot jace for Class B honors
is expected because of the caliber
of the entering teams and their
records thus far rnade. Mifflinburg,
defending champions and also current entry, will meet plenty of
trouble from St. Mary 's of Williamsport who have been recently
sporting a 20-1 seasonal record.
Rounding out the class will be
Freeland and Freeland MMI, together with Treverton of the Susquehanna League. Either Larksville or Shickshinny will also be
added to the class B list, depending upon the outcome of league
play-offs. Both of these teams are
well-balanced squads and pack
plenty of scoring punch.
Clas§ A, which has consistently
been a problem, to tournament
mentors in the past, once again
has Mr. Hoch and company working overtime in the planning. Although team prospects are very
good, a great deal of interference
has been met with concerning
PIAA playoffs, which st em from
the necessary elimination of first
place winners before runner-ups
are permitted to compete in post
season play. Already scheduled are
Hanover Twp., possibly Sunbury,
and Shamokin High School—all of
whom are defending champs in
the class; District play-offs will
determine whether Danville or
Coal Twp. will help to fill the
card. From Wyoming Valley, both
Newport and Nanticoke have submitted entries , although only one
can compete in tournament play
because of conflicting Wyoming
Valley League Playoffs. Most of
the teams in Class A, including
possible entries, have outstanding
records and are leaders in various
leagues.

Four Roses . . .
Roses or laurels or something go to Shelly and the boys lor one of
the best seasons in the last few years. (At least in the memory ? of
this beleagure d pencil pusher.) They stomped Harpur College ( Formerly
Triple Cities; starting point of the fabulous "Bob" of football fame ) to
the tune of 90-69. Hard to say who deserves most credit , but boys like
"Cool Cat" Linkchorst , "Chuckin Chuck" Daly, "Dimples " Byham ,
"Scoote r " Al Williams and "Elevated" Erickson made Harold's hopes
happen. (Not to mention the efforts of their most loyal rooter, Bessmacie Williams — I think I'll go out for basketball , too!)

With Your Head on a Swivel . . .
Yo u mi ght look back to last Friday night and realize that the Frosh
"Mardi Gras" was a very neatly turned trick. I undei-stand that they
even made a profit. (This could mean shoving the whole lot of you
Frosh into a higher tax bracket. ) Profit or no, it points up the ability
of undampened freshmen spirit. (Dampening takes place when they
grow older and wiser in the intricacies of college redtape.)
* * * * *

There's Gold in Them Thar Halls . . .
Somebody is makin ' a fort une in glassware (soda bottles, that is) .
I have it on good authority ( through the grape-soda vine) that there
are one thousand two hundred and eighty six empty soft drink bottles
on the loose in the dorm. That amounts to two thousand five hundred
and seventy-two pennies. Just think , somebody can become a coke
bottle magnate. Now some bright student will be able to drink his way
through school. (No , no , Lesser , I mean soft drinks. )
* * * * *
Twenty Girls — Count 'Em — 20 . . .
Democracy ran rampant through the senior class meeting last week
when twenty femmes were nominated as candidates for May Queen.
( Maybe we should have a Queen for every month—don 't get me wrong ;
I figure there 's only one thing twice as nice as ten girls and that's
twenty of 'em. ) I imagine the Dean's Office will take its toll (It usually
does of too-spantaneous nominations) , but -even at that there should be
some mighty choice choices left.
*

*

Be I'icky if Possible . . .
C.G.A. nominations for next year's officers will be held next week.
Pick around and find a worthy candidate ; if you 've looked around you
may have noticed that the woods aren 't exactly full of good presidential
timber. I never saw a j ob that took more tree-like characteristics. You
have to have a wooden face (b ut never look board ) and you certainly
must suffer many cutting remarks. "When you pick your candidate, be
sure not to pick a sapling.
* * * * *
The Flurry is Over . . .
The big hoopla is all over and Miss Co-ed has become a fact instead
of a campaign. I'd like to extend the C.C. gladhand to Phyl McLaren
on getting herself ensconced in the Obiter. I would also like to thank
the six faculty members who displayed the active interest of faculty in
student activities by voting in the co-ed election.
* * * * *
I Hear Music and . . .
The Student Talent Show in Assembly brought cut any number of
interesting facts and people and such. Paul Franks' crew-cut version of
"The Road to Mandalay " was good and brought back fond memories
of an authentic character named Curilla. "Big Goorge" and Fra nk
Janowicz proved football players got talented muscles In their tonsils ,
and *Georgie Schell, th e poor man 's George Shearing, did a good j ob in
conj unction with "Hot Horn " Carol. Above all (I think ) , a littl e gu y
who's quick with the quip and quicker with the friendly hand , emceed
the show while running a temperature of 103°. You can like the guy or
not; it still takes guts.
