Kappa Delta Holds
Election , Initiation

What should an organization do
with approximately seven hundred
dollars ? That was the problem
which confronted Kappa Delta Pi
at its meeting on Wednesday ,
April 23.
For many years, the organization has been saving money with
the intention of establishing a
fund sufficient to send Senior
Kadelpians on a professional and
cultural trip each year.
Bill Fisher g ave a report on the
funds now available and the expenses which would be involved
in such a trip. The treasury takes
in approximately two hundred dollars per year. Chartering a bus to
Philadelphia or New York would
cost ' approximately one hundred
fifty dollars.
After c o n s i d e r a b l e discussion,
I he fraternity came to the conclusion that it can now begin sending
its Seniors on an annual trip.
It was voted to give one hundred fifty dollars to the Seniors to
be used for a cultural and professional trip, and a committee
was appointed to make arrangements for the proposed trip.
Election of officers followed this.
The following were elected: President , John Scrimgoour; Vice-President , Robert Harris; Recording
Secretary, Erma Bean ; Correspondin e Secretary, Irene Cichowicz; Treasurer, Regina Herchel;
Historian , Alice Quick; and InterFruternlty Representative, James
Ferdinand.
An initiation ceremony followed
the business meeting. The following were initiated into the fraternity : Clyde Adams, Clyde Bell,
Irene Cfchowlcz, Jacob Dailey,
Lola . Deibert, James Ferdinand ,
Loretta Formulae, Robert Haas,
Robert Hale, Robert Harris, Richard Jones,* William KHne, Alex

of the state delegations, he clearly
emphasized that all the wrongdoings of the party in power will
soon end when the convention
names the new U. S. President.

Out of the G. I. Mail Bag

From the number of letters we have received from the G.I. s
we know that the Maroon and Gold is greatl y appreciated. We
have heard from 'approximatel y three-fourths of the men to whom
we send the papers. This response is most gratif ying.
Pfc. Harry E. Coleman , whose address is: RA 13389727
H q. Det. 1st Cav. Div., APO 201 c/o Postmaster , San Francisco,
Cal., writes from Japan , "Joe Albano, a former BSTC football
star , and I came overseas together on the same boat. We didn ' t
meet each other until we were on the ship from Yokohama to
Korea—I didn 't recognize him at first , he had gained in weig ht
and had grown a mustache since I last saw him at school. "
John Klorsko writes from Laekland Air Force Base in Texas ,
and exp lains that "OCS isn ' t exactly a co-ed college in the true
sense of the word , althoug h we have women training with us. It
is more than college. The caliber of students ranges from intelligent to very intelligent. There are students from very large
universities here , but they never fri g htened me. 1 feel that I can
match wits with any of them , even if I did come from a small
college. We have no such things as pep rallies, etc. but in a
place like this they separate the "men from the boys. " They make
a man of you. "

writes : "Here in Korea, I have been one of the four that make up
a contact team. The job of our contacts is to give front line troops
direct support by servicing their weapons. Whenever their weapons aren 't functioning correctly, they put in a call for us, so we
go up and repair them , rig ht in the field. We usually do a batta lion
at a time. Guess our theme is to 'Keep ' em Firing. ' I like my job
very much and am certainl y seeing a lot in Korea ."

convalescing since Dec. 1951: "Upon getting discharged, I p lan
to come back to college and finish , if they will have me back.
Being in the Army, and being over here in Germany has only
increased my desire to become a teacher and help as much as I

STRICTL Y FOR
CO-EDS

Attend Civil Defense Sch ool

by Mar > Lou Todd
Being a Junior , naturally I'll
write with a slight note of prej udice, but I think we'll all have to
admit that this year 's J un ior Prom
was, to corn a ph rase, "the best
ever!"
Flowers , flowers , everywhere !
That 's exactly what it amounted
to. Some of the girls wore their
corsages as a tournure (otherwise
known as a bustle) , others had a
necklace of flowei's , or a w rist
corsage. We weren't even surprised to see a shoulder corsage that
was fastened to the skin with a
tiny piece of scotch tape, ( they
are n't kidding when they say it
can be used for everything). This
is helpf ul f or some of those strapless gowns that don't seem to.have
a place for flowers.
I noticed about thi'ee gowns that
had dusters to match. Two of
them had large full sleeves, while
the third was sleeveless. Pretty
clever idea when you come to
think of it. If you start off the
evening by wearing the duster and
you tire of it—in a j iffy it' s off
and you're donned in a conipletely
new outfit . Just like magic!
Now that the warm weather has
started to peek around the corner ,
we begin to drag out last year's
cottons and add to our collection a
few new ones. Can you think of a
better way to brighten up our
classrooms ? This, plus those hints
Miss Gosf ord gave us should do
the trick to keep us fresh and
smart looking.
Many of the cottons will be
small prints this year rather than
solid colors. I don't know why .
Probably because one fashion expert prefers them. And who are
we at Bloomsburg to argue with
him ? I still feel strongly toward
a plain color because of its usefulness. What do you think about it ?
A great number of the summer
dresses will be of a material that
has proved itself durable in the
true sense of the word — denim.
Yes , in light blue, dark blue,
brown , and black. Some of them
are even combined with a solid
white. This, I su ppose , w as done
in order to emphasize the combination of colors in any shade of
denim. Even though they do wrinkle easily, they 're simple to wash
and iron which balances the scale.
And , what's more, they look as
good as new regardless of how
many times they've been tubbed .
Separates are a big thing again
this year. If you want four different ou tfits , you can buy two separate outfits and then change off.
Then , too, it is often possible to
get a particular blouse to go comparatively well with one of the
skirts, thus giving you five outfits.
In this manner , it is possible to
build your wardrobe up to an alltime high and still be economical.
If you really want to be fashion
wise, you can get loads of new
ideas for your summer wardrobe

Four from BSTC
Attend Defense
Training School

From March 30 to April 10, fo u r
delegates from B.S.T.C. attended
a Federal Civil Defense Administrati on Training School at Penn
State Center in Ogontz.
On Monday, the students attending the conference went
through orientation. They received
their equipment also, which consisted of gas masks, raincoats,
boots, cover alls, field j acket, and
gloves.
Everyone was required to attend
classes, starting at 8:30 to 11:30,
1:00 to 4:30. Classes also met from
6:30 to 8:30 on some nights.
The s t u d e n t s learned many
things : how to put up and bring
down ladders, how to fight fires;
how to tie special knots; how to
put out oil fires; and, how to use
gas masks. In learning to use gas
masks, the students went into a
smoke-filled hut , where they stayed twenty minutes and conversed.
In learning to rescue people from
burning b u i l d i n g s , i n c e n d i a r y
bombs were thrown into huts with
concrete floors and tin roofs. They
entered and put out the fires with
pumps. They also learned to carry
the injured down ladders, and
make improvised stretchers.
The students were shown many
movies, depicting ,what was done
in England during the last war in
combating bombs. They were also
shown further types of warfare
other than the A-Bomb.
In the course of their instruction , they had an opportunity to
use the regular equipment on a
Civil Defense truck. Using burned
and bombed houses, they learned
how to rescue people from under
crashed roofs, and to tunnel In
brick in search of the wounded.
Keith McKay, the male representative from the college, and
Jim Cherrington , a member of Mr.
Sharretts' department , were fire
wardens. Their duty was to locate
and report the scenes of the simulated disasters.
The work in which they engaged
was highly realistic: from smokefilled rooms, they had to extricate
victims who were trapped under
fallen timbers.
The rain , which Cell for two or
three days did not hinder the rescue operations. They were informed that they would probably work
under adverse weather conditions
in the event of atomic war. In this
field work, the wardens applied
the theory which they studied in
their classes.
Several rescue problems were
given at nigh t to stress the fact
that wardens must be prepared at
all times to face emergencies.
The course was scheduled to run
for 12 days, but in order to return

Now th at the baseball season has officially begun , we can turn our
attention to some predictions of things to come in the big leagues, as
we see them three weeks after the campai gn had its initial cry of "pl ay
ball!"
Prediction 1. The St. Louis Browns will continue their torrid pace
in the American T cague, until the latter part of June, or the first week
in July, then collapse under the wake of inevitable poor pitching such
as the Whitesox did in the 1951 campaign.
Predicti on 2. There will be a big shift of personnel in both leagues
before the first of June. Clubs involved in the National League will be
the Pittsburg h Pirates, the Chicago Cubs, and the Boston Braves. In
the American League, Detroit , Philadelphia , and the Redsox will be in
for some changes.
Prediction 3. Pittsburgh of the National Circuit , and Washington
of the American League will battle it down to the wire for the cellar
position in their respective leagues.
Prediction 4. Despite Cleveland's f ast start in the American League,
they will have a rough time before them to win th e flag. The Yankees
will of course provide their chief opposition. In the National League,
Brooklyn's Dodgers will falter with their pitching staff come the hot
weather, wh en Preacher Roe and Ralph Branca will pitch less often , and
certainly less -effectively. The club that will give them their biggest
headache will be the Philadelphia Phillies, during the hot part of the
season , because of their depth and better than average quality of
pitching.
Prediction 5. The Bloomsburg Huskies will lose but one or two
baseball tilts during the season, but will emerge State Teachers College
champions—West Chester providing the big opposition in the East. At
the same time, Shelly 's undermanned track team will have many rough
moments, and will not win a meet, but not because they aren 't trying or
do not have the spirit . Lack of man power can be blamed for this situation. As stated a few mont hs back, B.S.T.C. will drop track at the end
of this season, or next year from lack of any great interest.
Congrat ulations to the rookies of the Husky squad, and also the
old reliables who have carried the Huskies to two victories at this
writing. Creasy 's one hitter against Wilkes a few weeks ago was one
of the best pitched games in recent years around here. Also concerning
sensationalism, how about that peg from center field from Butler to
Lambrinos to tag out a Mansfield runner in last week's ga me ? Few
throws like that are seen, anywhere.
Bucknell, little collegiate powerhouse not so far from here will play
the Huskies in baseball in 1953 for the first time j n recent History of the
two institutions. Bucknell will also bring their flashy track squad to
B.S.T.C. this year. Don 't be surprised if Susquehanna University makes
its appearan ce on Husky baseball and basketball schedules within the
next two years, either. -

Shellymen Lose to
West Ch ester Squad

Mother Nature finally gave this
rain-soaked campus a break and
let there be an athletic event on
Navy Field last Tuesday afternoon
as the West Chester track team
took the measure of Coach Harold
Shelly's Huskies.
The rain made the timer's watch
run a little over time as the cinder
hustlers were called on to run on
a muddy track. Most of the times
were f ar from being world records
but they produced winners. For
the Huskies we find Jerry Kopec,
Forty Fort High product , buzzing
home a winner in the 100 yd. dash
in a somewhat slow time of 10.8
seconds. Last week at Lock Haven
the same Kopec came home a winner in 10 seconds flat. Veteran Joe
Fiefer, Mt. Carmel's 3 year consistent winner, scored a double
victory as he produced first places
in the mile and the half mile. In
the long run , Joe came home in
loop fashion at a 4:48 clip. Mr.
Fleet also broke the tape in the
half with a nice 2:08 time. John
Scrimgeour also posted a double
win as he competed in about all
the events he could find time to
enter. At one time the amazed
onlookers watched the slim John
toss the javelin and then hurried
to watch him top the high hurdles
in the 100 yd. dash over the high
steps. He won the hurdle event in
15 seconds flat and captured the
j avelin with a toss of 177 feet.
For the rest of the meet all we
could see was the flashing feet, the
j umping bodies and the heavy
heavers of the visiting Golden
Rams. Their second and third
places were about enough to win
the meet. This seems to be the
chief concern of Coach Harold
Shelly. There are enough first
places but his squad strength isn 't
large enough to capture the other
places of the event. The Rams
had a wonderful squad and their
entries in each event outnumbered
our own Huskies.
Tomprrow the Huskies will enter their third dual meet when
they entertain the University of
Scranton clndermen on the Navy
Hall cinders. This meet will begin
around 2:30 P.M.

Lock Haven Defeats
B.S.T\C. Track Team

While proving they would not be
overpowered in any event, the
Husky trackmen lacked sufficient
runner-up strength to spell the
difference in a 78 y2 to 47 V2 defeat
at the hands of Lock Haven 's Bald
Eagles. Although Lock Haven captured but two more events than
the visiting thinclads, the Huskies
could pick, up only three seconds
whi ch meant t he diff erence of
thirty-three points.
The Huskies best showing came
on the cindered path where they
placed first in four events and
third in five events. Sparking the
short list of experienced runners
were Joe Feifer who won the mile
and 880 yard runs, and Jerry
Kopec who had the best time in
the 100 and 220 yard sprints. Aiding to compile the total of points
for Bloomsburg were John Denin
in the half-mile run , Mike Creasy
in the mile, Dan Trocki in t he 440,
John Scrimgeour in the high hurdles, and Charles Yesson , who ran
the two-mile event.
Ted Rainey and John Scrimgeour paced the point-makers in
the field events, with Russ Verhousky adding strength in the
jumps . Rainey collected a first in
the discus throw and a second in
the shotput , while Scrimgeour
proved the best hurler of the j avelin , and followed Verhousky with
a third place in the high jump.
The meet was well-contested
throughout the afternoon with
both teams appearing in their best
condition. Mr. Shelly expressed
the hope of swinging into high
gear with the Husky thinclads
af ter his trip to the Penn Relays
on the week-end. Despite the lack,
of experienced men and sufficient
points to win the dual-meet with
Lock Haven , the Huskies will put
forth their best effort this week
for their coming meet with West
Chester on April 29.

The Bloomsburg Huskies sound- ,
ly trounced a hapless Mansfield
nine 13-2 Jast Thursday afternoon,
April 24 , on Mt. Olympus field. An
enthusiastic crowd braved the
damp showery day to watch Coach
Redman's boys play their opening
home game of the season, the first
league encounter in teachers competition. The outcome was never
in doubt as the Huskies scored
seven runs in the firs t three innings to win running away.
Bloomsburg showed good pitching, good hitting, and an air-tigh t
defe n se , a difficult combination to
beat. The reserves were also good.
The starting infield saw Dick Ledyard at firs t base , John Halcovich
at second base, John Mincemoyer
at shortstop, and Dave Linkchorst
at the hot corner. The yeteran
George Lambrinos was behind the
plate catching pitcher Clem Makow ski's left-hand slants. The outfield consisted of Joe Glosek in
right field , Don Butler patrolling
center, and Al Bolinsky in left field. Changes in the Bloomsburg
line-up as the game progressed included Bill Bartleson at first base ,
Bob Cummens at second, Ed Kapsak at shortstop, Ron Steinbach at
third , John Panichello and Aurand
catching, Paul Franklin pitching,
Joe Kinder in center field , and
Halcovich moving from second
base to left field as a replacement.
Clem Mak owski, the stylish
southpaw from Kulpmont, held the
visitors scoreless in the seven innings he pitched, allowing only
four hits. He struck out six batters while walking only two and
hitting another with a pitch. The
Husky offense was led by Halcovich's two triples and single and
Linkchorst's home run and one
base hit.
The Huskies scored first in the
opening inning on some alert baserunning by Mineemoyer, who raced to third on an infield error
after he had walked and scored on
the subsequent over-throw at third
base. In the second inning, hits by
Halcovich and Linkchorst featured
a two-run outburst, while sever al
walks, an error , together with
Halcovich's triple and Ledyard's
single scored four runs in the third
inning. In the top half of the same
inning, Makowski was in trouble,
but a great throw by Don Butler
from deep center field to home
plate cut off a runner attempting
to score after tagging up following
a long fly ball to center field.
Later, Butler threw out another
runner at third base to stop a
Mountaineer rally.
In Bloomsburg's h alf of the fifth
inning, Linkchorst blasted a home
run to deep left-center field. In the
next inning, Mincemoyer 's single,
a walk to Lambrinos, Bolin sky 's
one-base hit , Halcovich's three
bagger, and a passed ball by the
catcher scored four more runs for
the Huskies.
Paul Franklin pitched the last
two innings. After sixteen scoreless
innings, Bloomsburg was finally
scored upon when Mansfield bunched three solid hits good for two
runs in the eighth inning. The
Huskies scored another singleton
to run their total to thirteen for
the game.

Habit Forming . . .
Dea n Hoch' s statement that when you attend any of our baseball
games you see one of the best State Teachers College teams in the state
wasn 't mere idle hoopla. Notice the score of the last few games. 'Seems
like R.R.R. wants to carry on the habit he started in football season.
'Looks like another terri fic Husky team even though the pitching stuff
doesn't run as deep as was hoped. (This is as much as I say on that
matter. )

Fuzzy Wuzzy . . .
With the local Sesqui-centennial approaching on wings of publicity,
College men (They 'd almost have to be) are growing various forms of
chin f uzz and cookie clusters. Speaking of the latter , have you noticed
tha t a fine New England accen t is being strained through one. I guess
some of the boys are growing whiskers for Ihe same reason I do. (I
never get up in time to shave.) Others really do take the thing seriously
though ; I saw a Freshman who looked like he was scared by a peach.
I've heard a number of comments about "Link" Linkchorst with his
Lincolnesque decoration. Nobody would say whether they like it because
it adds something or hides something. Anyhow, the whole deal certainly
makes a lot of new faces on old familiar peopl e.

With the Waller Hall fountain uncapped for the summer, one of the

The changing colored lights seem to attract people irresistably ; especially if they happen to have studying to do. Some students have tried
starting a custom by making a wish and throwing a penny in the water.
I guess the only thing they started was somebody 's bank account.

Roaring- Good Time . . .
The Mock Conventing went off as planned (if not more so) and the
furor was frightful by the time the political ball got rolling everyone
was having a noisy good time. The experience gathered at that hodgepodge was more than worth the classes cut in order to make the extra
long assembly sessions possible. It's things of this nature that really
create a learning situation (not saying what's being learned.) A lot of
credit goes to the Phi Sig boys and their sponsor Prof. Reams for
making the occasion successful. (Not to mention riotous, noisy , etc. etc.

A Brief Note . . .
On the Junior Prom. Although it's rather difficult for yours truly
(or whatever yours is) to remain objecti ve on such matters, I think I
can say that a "Night in Venice " was one of the best Proms any Junior
Class has had in years and years and years. Many people mentioned to
me that they thought it was terrific. (I hardly even had to twist their
arms). Seriously though, Ihe dance was the result of excellent cooperation on the part of members of the Junior Class and I think the
results showed it.

The next nomination was made
by David Newbury. On behalf of

General Dwight D. Eisenhower for
the presidency. Speaking of the
"entrenchment" of the party in
power, Mr. Newbury stressed that
the Republican Party musl have a
candidate strong enough with the
masses to overcome the administration. He pointed out that "Ike"
was a man who knew the terrors

However, Ike "is not an appeaser. "
He has definite policies which coincide with those of the Republican Party." William Kline presented the second address for Eisenhower, pointing out that in

is especially arranged so that observations will be an intei-esting
and integral part of the workshop,.
Bloomsburg is one of the few
colleges In Pennsylvania that maintain laboratory schools during the
regular summer session. The Benj amin Franklin Laboratory School
affords an excellent opportunity
for observation and parti cipation
by experienced teachers, especially
at this time of emphasis in element ary education.
Enrollment in the 1952 Elementary Educat ion Workshop is limited, and persons interested are
urged to make their reservations
early.

teachers who desire to reenter the
profession because of the critical
short age of elementary teachers.
Increasing emphasis on taxation
and tax-record keeping has prompted the Bloomsburg State Teachers College to include a Federal
Tax Course also in its course offerings for the 1952 Summer School.
The course will include procedures
in tax accounting; income taxes
for individ uals, corporations, estates and trusts; and a brief treatment of Pennsylvania taxes will
meet the needs of teachers seeking
permanent certification and professional improvement.
The summer sessions in the Business Education "Department provide opportunitie s for the business
teachers of Pennsylvania to cdiiiplete the requirements for permanent certification and to extend
their certificates to include additional business subj ects. Non-business teachers also may work toward certification in business education.
Certification in either typewriting or shorthand or both may be
secured in one summer by enrollment in the Shorthand and Typewriting Workshop. Dr. North said
that prerequisites for enrolling are
a minimum of two semester hours
of college credit in typewriting
and three semester hours of credit
in college shorthand. The equivalent of these credits of mastery of
the f undamentals of touch typewriting and of writing Gregg
Shorth and , Anniversary of Simplifi ed , may qualify for conditional
enrollment.
Dr. North also said that the college will offer a course in Money
and Banking provided there is
sufficient demand.
