Plans Begun for Seventh
Annual Fashion Show Here
Plans are well under way for the seventh annual B,S.T.C. fashion
the event. The show will be presented Friday, May 1, in connection
with the annual Business Education Contest. Two performances are
being planned, because of the customary large attendance — an afternoon matinee and an evening program starting at 8:15 p.m.
This year the British coronation will be featured as the theme of
the show. Under direction of Mrs.
Olive C. Beeman, extensive decoration is being planned. A large
jewel studded crown will dominate the center of the stage, together with wrought iron gates
and fences. The stage setting will

Welliver at Wheel
Some people derive enj oyment from collecting stamps, tropical fish,
and antiques, while others enjoy sports and other recreational activities.
In all, there are 1001 outlets for ones interests. One different means of
satisfaction is that pursued by a sophomore at Bloomsburg State
Teachers College.
Tom Welliver, of Shamokin, Pennsylvania, and his father undertook
quite a project. Tom's father has managed Welliver Motors in Shamokin for some time, and from these surroundings it seems natural that
Tom would develop an interest in automobiles. When he was younger,
he spent hours tinkering with automobile parts and observing things in
general at the garage. During his senior high school years, Tom was
employed at his father 's garage in the selling of Nash cars.
About 1949, Tom decided that he was going to convert a car into a
hot-rod. Tom chose a Graham as the body for his hot-rod, because it
incorporated a dual-exhaust, and a supercharger. Considering the safety
factor of a hot-rod, Tom and his father decided instead upon a sports
rambler. At the first estimate they figured that the car would be finished in less than a year, but it actually required all of two years' effort.
His rambler is a mixture of % Nash and % Graham. Into its overhauling went the grill from a Nash, a reduced version of a Nash frame,
the elimination of the front shock absorbers, and the lowering of the
whole car by means of raising the wheel sections. The result of all this
was a smart looking, attractive, built-to-the-ground rambler. The top
of the motor is actually lower than the top of :he wheels. The hybrid
holds the road well, more easily than the conventional Nash , and the
gasoline consumption is very economical.
An incorporated luxury is the combined windshield wiper and
;
washer.
Welliver planned to call his creation the "Welliver-Revillew", but a
state ordinance required that the car must be named in accordance with
its body number. Therefore Tom had no alternate but to call it a
Graham.
If a blue flash whizzes past you on the street, remember — its not
Casey at the throttle, but Welliver at the wheel.
Leechery - Then and Now
On February 10, the Bloomsburg College Campus flowed with blood.
It was not a riot or pitched battle ; no one was scarred , maimed, or
seriously inj ured. But , in the minds of students, faculty, and administrators, this day will be remembered as "Bloody Tuesday". This long
publicized and well planned event began when the American Red Cross
Bloodmobile arrived on the Bloomsburg Campus. A host of doctors,
nurses, and technicians set up their equipment in the Waller Hall gym
to pursue, in modern style, the ancient art of blood-letting.
Blood-letting, or leechery, as it is commonly called , as a treatment
for many bodily ills, dates back to the early dawn of medical history.
It dates back to the days when insanity was treated by boring a hole in
the head to release the evil spirits, and a wooden mallet applied to the
base of the skull was the only known anesthesia. In those days no rigid
laws defined , or confined the medical profession. Doctors, apothecaries,
mid-wives, and even barbers could tend the sick, administer drugs, and
perform surgery. All that was needed to set up the practitioner was a
collection of herbs, powdered drugs, a wooden mallet , a saw , lancet s,
catch-basins, and a few blood-sucking leeches.
Blood-letting was the treatment commonly prescribed for such ailments as fe ver, gout , blood poison , high or low blood pressure, and distemper. These maladies, it was thought , were caused by demons in the
blood system. Bleeding the individual allowed the demons to flow out
with the blood , and thus relieve the sufferer.
The technique was a simple one. If a doctor could not be summoned
to a pat i ent , the local barber would do. All he needed was a scalpel ,
basin , and a few bandages. First, a small Incision would be made
directly into a maj or artery, allowing the blood to flow freely into catchbasin. The amount of blood drawn in this manner was left to the discretion of the so-called doctor. Then , the wound was closed and bandaged , and nature was allowed to take her course. Often , too much
blood was removed in this fashion — sometimes proving fatal to the
patient. Then too, sanitary measures were unheard of. Many times,
bacter i a, more harmful than the malady being treated , were allowed to
enter the blood stream by way of an unstorile lancet. At best, this
practice was extremely hazardous.
The leech was another method used in blood-letting. They wore
used when blood was to be removed from a localized area. Leeches,
which could be found in any near by swamp, were h old close to t h e area
to be bled. Without fall , the leech bit into the flesh and proceeded to
suck the blood. This was the favorite method to remove the discoloration from the bruise of a 'black-eye'. The use of leeches became so
prevalent th at th e name "Leechery" was derisively applied to the whole
medical profession . ¦
We sometimes laugh at the treatments given in the days of medici ne's Infancy. Yet, subsequent medical knowledge has prove n that, in

His Hobb y BLO OMSBURG
Among the faculty here at
Bloomsburg State Teachers College, hobbies are also conside: ed
one of the beat-methods of keeping occupied. John Hoch, Dean or
Men at B.S.T.C., has a hobby that
takes practically every minute of
his time. His hobby is Bloomsburg.
Mr. Hoch was born in Milton ,
Pennsylvania, and was graduated
from high school at the age of sixteen. When he was just twenty
years old, he received his Bachelor of Science Degree in Education
from the Pennsylvania State College and returned to his home to
teach. He received his Master of
Arts Degree from Bucknell in 1942
and came to B.S.T.C. in 1946 as
the assistant of the late "Lefty"
Grovfe.
This "hobby " of Mr. Hoch is
indeed a twenty-four hour proposition. In the fall he is assistant
coach of the Husky football team.
During this time he must keep in
constant touch with the head
coach and the players, making
sure that no important detail has
been left out of the preparations
for the coming game or scrimmage. He has an important part in
scheduling the games and in making" arrangements for visiting
teams and for the Huskies when
they are playing away from
Bloomsburg.
As Dean of Men it is his j ob to
make arrangements with all men
students who wish to stay in the
dormitory. This task begins in
the late summer and, to a lesser
degree, is carried on for the remainder of the school year.
There is always a steady demand from students who wish to
live in the dormitory and can't
understand why they can't move
right in. It is Mr. Hock's job to
explain why and to place their
name on his waiting list.
Mr. Hock lives in the North Hall
Men's Dormitory with his wife and
family, and this tends to produce
still another duty to which he
must devote his time. Every night
of the school year, without exception, he must make several trips
around the dormitory to see that
everything is all right and to quiet '
the noise, when it is possible.
B.S.T.C. has a Public Relations
( Continued on page 4)
this instance, the underlying principles were sound. We no longer
accredit sickness to evil spirits or
demons, but not withstanding, we
still practice the art of blood-letting with a more beneficial aim in
view.
Modern science has discovered
many things about blood. First, it
may be classified into four maj or
types. It is inter-changeable among
people of the same blood type.
These f a c t s , coupled with the
knowledge that it can be stored
for future use, have aided greatly
the practice of modern medicine.
We have come a long way in developing the technique. We now
ask healthy people to act as donors, and give their blood, either in
direct transfusions to the patient ,
or to the blood bank where it is
stored for future use.
The method of a direct transfusion of blood from one person to
another has -been improved since
those early days. The lancets have
been discarded. A hollow needle is
now inserted beneath the skin
into an artery attached to the
needle is a rubber tube through
which the blood passes into the
body of the patient , who is fitted
with another hollow needle into
his artery . Dangers of infection
have been cut down considerably
by this method.
in cases wnere tne oiooa is 10
be stored , a somewhat different
procedure is followed. The blood
is extracted in the same manner,
but instead of flowing directly to
a patient it is caught in an airtight sterile bottle. This bottle
can then be stored until needed.
This process of storage is called a
(
blood bank.
The American Red Cross has a
vast program underway to secure
blood , and save It until needed.
That is why blood flowed at
Bloomsburg. The students, facuk
ty, and administrators volunteer*
od to act as donors in thi s great
cause. They gave their blood glad]y so that someone migh t live.
Leechery is not dead; it is practiced in our day. We have come
far in developing the technique
and putting it to a beneficial use.
The superstitJons and black magic
surroundi ng i t h ave been done
away with , and so th e practice
goes on. We have a chance to
participate in it, helping a great
cause.

Last night being the last time
this year we will see our cheerleaders do their stuff , made me
feel that they should get a mention in this column, especially
since they modeled their new outfits all through basketball season.
The full maroon skirts went right
along with the vigorous routines,
and out from under peeked the
gold lining. The girls topped off
their outfits as everyone knows
with white tailored blouses. Nice
outfits—nice work !
At the game was cute Joanne
Hester. Jo had on a straight plaid
skirt. The plaid was unusual in
one sense as the background color
was a creamy white. Yellow and
dark brown lines criss-crossed and
thus formed the neat plaid. A
white turtle-necked sweater helped set off the costume as unique.
The whole outfit was complimented by a rusty-gold corduroy jack et. Collar up, Joanne was ready
for any chilly breeze to come her
way.
A hop, jump, and a skip away
was Joan Raab with a cute number. Her ligh t gray skirt was
mated with a darker gray sweater. However Joan's sweater was
different with a capital "D". The
ribbed neckline was held fast by
a,drawstring effect. Two cuddly
pom poms dangled from each end
of the drawstrings. The sleeves
too, had an unusual ribbed pattern. Cute indeed!
This spring its going to be a
mad flurry of furry clothes. Ranging from leopard spots to mink
prints. This material will be produced in almost every type of fab ric—terry cloth , cotton , silk, crepe
and satin. The new fad will be
quite reasonable in price ranging
with the type of fabric being used.
Rifh t along with the fur materials are the coronation styles.
Hats, gowns, and hair-dos will follow the coronation lines.
This about ends campus hemlines for this week, however we'll

LOCKER^-LlNQO
by Harry Brooks
The big news of the week is the post season tourney talk going
around campus. At the present time, reports Mr. Hoch, B.S.T.C. is one
of several Pennsylvania cage teams receiving consideration for the district 30 NAIA (National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics) playoffs to determine a Pennsylvania representative to go to Kansas City
and vie in the National Tournament in March. The first Pennsylvania
playoff will be held March first since the Pennsylvania representative
is to be determined by March fourth. Lycoming, Lebanon Valley , and
Bloomsburg are three ol the teams under consideration in this area,
with others scattered throughout the state.' In regards to a popular
fallacy, the State Teachers Conference champion is not necessarily the
Pennsylvania representative to Kansas City, although Clarion represented the state last year. To add the final touch to the Kansas City
tourney, the winner will snag a berth in the N.C.A.A. event in New
York , representing the NAIA.
Should the Huskies take the Millersville and Mansfield games, and
should Lycoming continue their winning ways, the tilt between the
Shellymen and the Lycos next Saturday evening may well determine
which team will serve as district 30 representatives.
Hats off to the six seniors who played their final home game for
the Maroon and Gold Monday evening, February 16, against Kutztown.
During the four rugged campaigns in which these boys have played,
many thrilling moments and successes have come their way and ours.
AIL these boys will be sorely missed come next season when the first
basketball is dribbled onto the floor , but lets hope their "Fou r Leaf
Clover " luck continues during the remaining 3 games of the schedule.
Intr amural Sports
Draw Crowds to Gym
Intramural sports have finally
caught the fancy of the students
of Bloomsburg . Each Monday
night since the second semester
began, there has been an average
of 140 men students at the gym,
participating in basketball or
swimming. Dr. Wagner, assisted
by John Bogdan, keeps the program running smoothly. Every
Monday night there are three exciting basketball games and swimming events. The i n t r a m u r a l
league is very close, and all teams
are playing their best to win the
coveted T-shirts which are given
to the winners of the league.
A softball league will be formed
as soon as warm weather comes.
This basketball program is instituted especially for students who
are not so athletically inclined.
No varsity or J.y. members are
allowed to participate. It is for
men who aren't quite good enough
to make the varsity team but will
play intramurals and score one or
two points every game. Everyone
is
welcome to take part.

Husky Pups Down
Red Rock Airmen
The Husky Pups breezed by another obstacle in their quest for
a perfect season Wednesday night
Feb.
as they downed a highly
rated Red Rock Air Base quintet
by a convincing 80-52 score on the
spacious Centennial court. The
Flyers from nearby Benton were
ahead at halftime, bu t like the
rest of the Pups' opponents found
the stretch drive too demanding,
and thus became the sixth victim
of Coach Byham 's cagers.
The visiting Airmen had things
much to their liking throughout
the entire first half , and left the
court with a commanding 29-30
lead at the rest period. The usually offensive-minded Pups were
rendered almost helpless in the
first two stanzas as they failed to
set up their offensive patterns.
A pepped-up squad of Pups took
the floor following the intermission, and inspired by a fired-up
halftime, proceeded to blast the
Flyers with an offensive outburst
that left the visitors in a daze. In
the third quarter the Pups not
only evened the count , but gained
an overwhelming lead as they registered 37 points to jump to a 5732 advantage. The reserves took
over for the remainder of the contest.
Pups Break Record
Saturday night, February 14, the
Husky Pups were really red hot
as they ripped the cords for an
astounding 102 points against the
Danville Merck to win their sixth
consecutive game of the year. The
future Husky stars got off to a
slow start, but there was no denying them when they found the
range, as they scored almost at
will to be the first team to surpass the century mark in the history of Centennial Gym. Keith
Weiser and Bill Mielke led the
assault with 20 and 18 points respectively. The final score, 102-43.

Winning Strea k
A scrappy band of Wilkes College Colonels recovered from a
bad start and went on to thump
our high-scoring Huskies 92-81 at
Cent ennial Gym, Wednesday night
Feb. 11. The defeat was as unexpected as it was decisive, although the visitors had turned the
trick earlier in the year on their
own court 73-58. Going into the
gam e, the charges of Harold Shelly were riding a seven-game winning streak and boasted a proud
home skein of 18 consecutive victories.
The Huskies got off to a terrific
start, and for a while it looked as
if they were going to make a rout
out of the game. At one point in
the first quarter they were leading 20-10, but then the roof fell in.
The visitors began to find- the
range, and it wasn't too long before they h ad gained th e lead
which they held throughout the
remainder of the contest. Defensive lapses on the part of the
Huskies were very instrumental
in helping Wilkes turn the tables
on their taller hosts, alt hou gh to
give credit where credit is due,
the visitors simply out-played our
boys and deserved to win.
Although their fourth game of
the year, the Huskies continued to
roll up the points, and have now
scored 984 points in their twelve
games to date for an average of
82 points per game. The driving
forces in this last encounter were
Bob Gerhard and Al Williams who
registered 17 and 14 points respectively. The victorious Colonels
were led by Len Batroney with
29 points and Little Eddie Davis
who gathered 19. Most of victory
margin was gained on the foul
line, as the Colonels only had on e
more field goal than the Shelleymen.

For Fast Dependable
Playing probably their best
home game of the season Monday
night, February 16, the Huskies
gained sweet revenge as they
stopped the Golden Avalanche of
Kutztown 83-79. Again it was good
reserve strength that turned the
tide for the Huskies as they won
their tenth game of the year, and
took a tighter grip on the Teach- »
ers College Crown.
Both teams were slightly less
than terrific in the first period,
connecting from all angles as they
really rolled up the points. Ctar
Huskies trailed at the end of the
quarter 27-26 but they really had
to go all out to keep up to their
smaller foes. The Kutztown boys
made up in fight what they lacked
in height , but the Huskies were in
the winning mood and not to be
denied.
Good shooting at the end of a
devastating fast break was the
driving force in the Husky attack
throughout the game, and it was
especially evident in the firs t half.
The Shellymen held a nine point
advantage at half time, and at
one time in the third quarter led
by 13. Then the visitors caught
fire and led by Kocivera, pulled .
to within 2 points of the Huskies
with about six minutes to go, and
things looked very black indeed.
With the abandonment of veterans, the Huskies turned their
backs from the wall and slowly
but surely pulled themselves out
of danger. A belated last minute
spurt by the K-Towners fell short,
and the Huskies had chalked up
another victory on the right side
of the ledger.
The Maroon and Gold attack
was led by Doug Erickson and Joe
Ond ru la , Doug collecting 20 and
Jumpin' Joe accounting for 23.

to be represented at some meeting or dinner the most likely man
to represent it will be John Hoch.
Now to most people this would
represent a full schedule with no
ifs , ands, or buts. But Mr. Hoch
has still another j ob for which he
must prepare and carry out. He
must teach an occasional History
or Government course and, when
the need arises, a course on Educaion. This is during the regular
session; during the summer session s, however, he tea ches full
time and still manages to carry on
his other duties.
So it goes from day to day,
month to month, year to year.
This is the hobby of John Hoch.
It is a full time one, which must
be, and is, well done. And if , in
the future, he should be given
some additional task, you can be
sure it will take its proper place
in his vast collection of "hobbies".

Welliver at Wheel
Some people derive enj oyment from collecting stamps, tropical fish,
and antiques, while others enjoy sports and other recreational activities.
In all, there are 1001 outlets for ones interests. One different means of
satisfaction is that pursued by a sophomore at Bloomsburg State
Teachers College.
Tom Welliver, of Shamokin, Pennsylvania, and his father undertook
quite a project. Tom's father has managed Welliver Motors in Shamokin for some time, and from these surroundings it seems natural that
Tom would develop an interest in automobiles. When he was younger,
he spent hours tinkering with automobile parts and observing things in
general at the garage. During his senior high school years, Tom was
employed at his father 's garage in the selling of Nash cars.
About 1949, Tom decided that he was going to convert a car into a
hot-rod. Tom chose a Graham as the body for his hot-rod, because it
incorporated a dual-exhaust, and a supercharger. Considering the safety
factor of a hot-rod, Tom and his father decided instead upon a sports
rambler. At the first estimate they figured that the car would be finished in less than a year, but it actually required all of two years' effort.
His rambler is a mixture of % Nash and % Graham. Into its overhauling went the grill from a Nash, a reduced version of a Nash frame,
the elimination of the front shock absorbers, and the lowering of the
whole car by means of raising the wheel sections. The result of all this
was a smart looking, attractive, built-to-the-ground rambler. The top
of the motor is actually lower than the top of :he wheels. The hybrid
holds the road well, more easily than the conventional Nash , and the
gasoline consumption is very economical.
An incorporated luxury is the combined windshield wiper and
;
washer.
Welliver planned to call his creation the "Welliver-Revillew", but a
state ordinance required that the car must be named in accordance with
its body number. Therefore Tom had no alternate but to call it a
Graham.
If a blue flash whizzes past you on the street, remember — its not
Casey at the throttle, but Welliver at the wheel.
Leechery - Then and Now
On February 10, the Bloomsburg College Campus flowed with blood.
It was not a riot or pitched battle ; no one was scarred , maimed, or
seriously inj ured. But , in the minds of students, faculty, and administrators, this day will be remembered as "Bloody Tuesday". This long
publicized and well planned event began when the American Red Cross
Bloodmobile arrived on the Bloomsburg Campus. A host of doctors,
nurses, and technicians set up their equipment in the Waller Hall gym
to pursue, in modern style, the ancient art of blood-letting.
Blood-letting, or leechery, as it is commonly called , as a treatment
for many bodily ills, dates back to the early dawn of medical history.
It dates back to the days when insanity was treated by boring a hole in
the head to release the evil spirits, and a wooden mallet applied to the
base of the skull was the only known anesthesia. In those days no rigid
laws defined , or confined the medical profession. Doctors, apothecaries,
mid-wives, and even barbers could tend the sick, administer drugs, and
perform surgery. All that was needed to set up the practitioner was a
collection of herbs, powdered drugs, a wooden mallet , a saw , lancet s,
catch-basins, and a few blood-sucking leeches.
Blood-letting was the treatment commonly prescribed for such ailments as fe ver, gout , blood poison , high or low blood pressure, and distemper. These maladies, it was thought , were caused by demons in the
blood system. Bleeding the individual allowed the demons to flow out
with the blood , and thus relieve the sufferer.
The technique was a simple one. If a doctor could not be summoned
to a pat i ent , the local barber would do. All he needed was a scalpel ,
basin , and a few bandages. First, a small Incision would be made
directly into a maj or artery, allowing the blood to flow freely into catchbasin. The amount of blood drawn in this manner was left to the discretion of the so-called doctor. Then , the wound was closed and bandaged , and nature was allowed to take her course. Often , too much
blood was removed in this fashion — sometimes proving fatal to the
patient. Then too, sanitary measures were unheard of. Many times,
bacter i a, more harmful than the malady being treated , were allowed to
enter the blood stream by way of an unstorile lancet. At best, this
practice was extremely hazardous.
The leech was another method used in blood-letting. They wore
used when blood was to be removed from a localized area. Leeches,
which could be found in any near by swamp, were h old close to t h e area
to be bled. Without fall , the leech bit into the flesh and proceeded to
suck the blood. This was the favorite method to remove the discoloration from the bruise of a 'black-eye'. The use of leeches became so
prevalent th at th e name "Leechery" was derisively applied to the whole
medical profession . ¦
We sometimes laugh at the treatments given in the days of medici ne's Infancy. Yet, subsequent medical knowledge has prove n that, in

His Hobb y BLO OMSBURG
Among the faculty here at
Bloomsburg State Teachers College, hobbies are also conside: ed
one of the beat-methods of keeping occupied. John Hoch, Dean or
Men at B.S.T.C., has a hobby that
takes practically every minute of
his time. His hobby is Bloomsburg.
Mr. Hoch was born in Milton ,
Pennsylvania, and was graduated
from high school at the age of sixteen. When he was just twenty
years old, he received his Bachelor of Science Degree in Education
from the Pennsylvania State College and returned to his home to
teach. He received his Master of
Arts Degree from Bucknell in 1942
and came to B.S.T.C. in 1946 as
the assistant of the late "Lefty"
Grovfe.
This "hobby " of Mr. Hoch is
indeed a twenty-four hour proposition. In the fall he is assistant
coach of the Husky football team.
During this time he must keep in
constant touch with the head
coach and the players, making
sure that no important detail has
been left out of the preparations
for the coming game or scrimmage. He has an important part in
scheduling the games and in making" arrangements for visiting
teams and for the Huskies when
they are playing away from
Bloomsburg.
As Dean of Men it is his j ob to
make arrangements with all men
students who wish to stay in the
dormitory. This task begins in
the late summer and, to a lesser
degree, is carried on for the remainder of the school year.
There is always a steady demand from students who wish to
live in the dormitory and can't
understand why they can't move
right in. It is Mr. Hock's job to
explain why and to place their
name on his waiting list.
Mr. Hock lives in the North Hall
Men's Dormitory with his wife and
family, and this tends to produce
still another duty to which he
must devote his time. Every night
of the school year, without exception, he must make several trips
around the dormitory to see that
everything is all right and to quiet '
the noise, when it is possible.
B.S.T.C. has a Public Relations
( Continued on page 4)
this instance, the underlying principles were sound. We no longer
accredit sickness to evil spirits or
demons, but not withstanding, we
still practice the art of blood-letting with a more beneficial aim in
view.
Modern science has discovered
many things about blood. First, it
may be classified into four maj or
types. It is inter-changeable among
people of the same blood type.
These f a c t s , coupled with the
knowledge that it can be stored
for future use, have aided greatly
the practice of modern medicine.
We have come a long way in developing the technique. We now
ask healthy people to act as donors, and give their blood, either in
direct transfusions to the patient ,
or to the blood bank where it is
stored for future use.
The method of a direct transfusion of blood from one person to
another has -been improved since
those early days. The lancets have
been discarded. A hollow needle is
now inserted beneath the skin
into an artery attached to the
needle is a rubber tube through
which the blood passes into the
body of the patient , who is fitted
with another hollow needle into
his artery . Dangers of infection
have been cut down considerably
by this method.
in cases wnere tne oiooa is 10
be stored , a somewhat different
procedure is followed. The blood
is extracted in the same manner,
but instead of flowing directly to
a patient it is caught in an airtight sterile bottle. This bottle
can then be stored until needed.
This process of storage is called a
(
blood bank.
The American Red Cross has a
vast program underway to secure
blood , and save It until needed.
That is why blood flowed at
Bloomsburg. The students, facuk
ty, and administrators volunteer*
od to act as donors in thi s great
cause. They gave their blood glad]y so that someone migh t live.
Leechery is not dead; it is practiced in our day. We have come
far in developing the technique
and putting it to a beneficial use.
The superstitJons and black magic
surroundi ng i t h ave been done
away with , and so th e practice
goes on. We have a chance to
participate in it, helping a great
cause.

Last night being the last time
this year we will see our cheerleaders do their stuff , made me
feel that they should get a mention in this column, especially
since they modeled their new outfits all through basketball season.
The full maroon skirts went right
along with the vigorous routines,
and out from under peeked the
gold lining. The girls topped off
their outfits as everyone knows
with white tailored blouses. Nice
outfits—nice work !
At the game was cute Joanne
Hester. Jo had on a straight plaid
skirt. The plaid was unusual in
one sense as the background color
was a creamy white. Yellow and
dark brown lines criss-crossed and
thus formed the neat plaid. A
white turtle-necked sweater helped set off the costume as unique.
The whole outfit was complimented by a rusty-gold corduroy jack et. Collar up, Joanne was ready
for any chilly breeze to come her
way.
A hop, jump, and a skip away
was Joan Raab with a cute number. Her ligh t gray skirt was
mated with a darker gray sweater. However Joan's sweater was
different with a capital "D". The
ribbed neckline was held fast by
a,drawstring effect. Two cuddly
pom poms dangled from each end
of the drawstrings. The sleeves
too, had an unusual ribbed pattern. Cute indeed!
This spring its going to be a
mad flurry of furry clothes. Ranging from leopard spots to mink
prints. This material will be produced in almost every type of fab ric—terry cloth , cotton , silk, crepe
and satin. The new fad will be
quite reasonable in price ranging
with the type of fabric being used.
Rifh t along with the fur materials are the coronation styles.
Hats, gowns, and hair-dos will follow the coronation lines.
This about ends campus hemlines for this week, however we'll

LOCKER^-LlNQO
by Harry Brooks
The big news of the week is the post season tourney talk going
around campus. At the present time, reports Mr. Hoch, B.S.T.C. is one
of several Pennsylvania cage teams receiving consideration for the district 30 NAIA (National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics) playoffs to determine a Pennsylvania representative to go to Kansas City
and vie in the National Tournament in March. The first Pennsylvania
playoff will be held March first since the Pennsylvania representative
is to be determined by March fourth. Lycoming, Lebanon Valley , and
Bloomsburg are three ol the teams under consideration in this area,
with others scattered throughout the state.' In regards to a popular
fallacy, the State Teachers Conference champion is not necessarily the
Pennsylvania representative to Kansas City, although Clarion represented the state last year. To add the final touch to the Kansas City
tourney, the winner will snag a berth in the N.C.A.A. event in New
York , representing the NAIA.
Should the Huskies take the Millersville and Mansfield games, and
should Lycoming continue their winning ways, the tilt between the
Shellymen and the Lycos next Saturday evening may well determine
which team will serve as district 30 representatives.
Hats off to the six seniors who played their final home game for
the Maroon and Gold Monday evening, February 16, against Kutztown.
During the four rugged campaigns in which these boys have played,
many thrilling moments and successes have come their way and ours.
AIL these boys will be sorely missed come next season when the first
basketball is dribbled onto the floor , but lets hope their "Fou r Leaf
Clover " luck continues during the remaining 3 games of the schedule.
Intr amural Sports
Draw Crowds to Gym
Intramural sports have finally
caught the fancy of the students
of Bloomsburg . Each Monday
night since the second semester
began, there has been an average
of 140 men students at the gym,
participating in basketball or
swimming. Dr. Wagner, assisted
by John Bogdan, keeps the program running smoothly. Every
Monday night there are three exciting basketball games and swimming events. The i n t r a m u r a l
league is very close, and all teams
are playing their best to win the
coveted T-shirts which are given
to the winners of the league.
A softball league will be formed
as soon as warm weather comes.
This basketball program is instituted especially for students who
are not so athletically inclined.
No varsity or J.y. members are
allowed to participate. It is for
men who aren't quite good enough
to make the varsity team but will
play intramurals and score one or
two points every game. Everyone
is
welcome to take part.

Husky Pups Down
Red Rock Airmen
The Husky Pups breezed by another obstacle in their quest for
a perfect season Wednesday night
Feb.
as they downed a highly
rated Red Rock Air Base quintet
by a convincing 80-52 score on the
spacious Centennial court. The
Flyers from nearby Benton were
ahead at halftime, bu t like the
rest of the Pups' opponents found
the stretch drive too demanding,
and thus became the sixth victim
of Coach Byham 's cagers.
The visiting Airmen had things
much to their liking throughout
the entire first half , and left the
court with a commanding 29-30
lead at the rest period. The usually offensive-minded Pups were
rendered almost helpless in the
first two stanzas as they failed to
set up their offensive patterns.
A pepped-up squad of Pups took
the floor following the intermission, and inspired by a fired-up
halftime, proceeded to blast the
Flyers with an offensive outburst
that left the visitors in a daze. In
the third quarter the Pups not
only evened the count , but gained
an overwhelming lead as they registered 37 points to jump to a 5732 advantage. The reserves took
over for the remainder of the contest.
Pups Break Record
Saturday night, February 14, the
Husky Pups were really red hot
as they ripped the cords for an
astounding 102 points against the
Danville Merck to win their sixth
consecutive game of the year. The
future Husky stars got off to a
slow start, but there was no denying them when they found the
range, as they scored almost at
will to be the first team to surpass the century mark in the history of Centennial Gym. Keith
Weiser and Bill Mielke led the
assault with 20 and 18 points respectively. The final score, 102-43.

Winning Strea k
A scrappy band of Wilkes College Colonels recovered from a
bad start and went on to thump
our high-scoring Huskies 92-81 at
Cent ennial Gym, Wednesday night
Feb. 11. The defeat was as unexpected as it was decisive, although the visitors had turned the
trick earlier in the year on their
own court 73-58. Going into the
gam e, the charges of Harold Shelly were riding a seven-game winning streak and boasted a proud
home skein of 18 consecutive victories.
The Huskies got off to a terrific
start, and for a while it looked as
if they were going to make a rout
out of the game. At one point in
the first quarter they were leading 20-10, but then the roof fell in.
The visitors began to find- the
range, and it wasn't too long before they h ad gained th e lead
which they held throughout the
remainder of the contest. Defensive lapses on the part of the
Huskies were very instrumental
in helping Wilkes turn the tables
on their taller hosts, alt hou gh to
give credit where credit is due,
the visitors simply out-played our
boys and deserved to win.
Although their fourth game of
the year, the Huskies continued to
roll up the points, and have now
scored 984 points in their twelve
games to date for an average of
82 points per game. The driving
forces in this last encounter were
Bob Gerhard and Al Williams who
registered 17 and 14 points respectively. The victorious Colonels
were led by Len Batroney with
29 points and Little Eddie Davis
who gathered 19. Most of victory
margin was gained on the foul
line, as the Colonels only had on e
more field goal than the Shelleymen.

For Fast Dependable
Playing probably their best
home game of the season Monday
night, February 16, the Huskies
gained sweet revenge as they
stopped the Golden Avalanche of
Kutztown 83-79. Again it was good
reserve strength that turned the
tide for the Huskies as they won
their tenth game of the year, and
took a tighter grip on the Teach- »
ers College Crown.
Both teams were slightly less
than terrific in the first period,
connecting from all angles as they
really rolled up the points. Ctar
Huskies trailed at the end of the
quarter 27-26 but they really had
to go all out to keep up to their
smaller foes. The Kutztown boys
made up in fight what they lacked
in height , but the Huskies were in
the winning mood and not to be
denied.
Good shooting at the end of a
devastating fast break was the
driving force in the Husky attack
throughout the game, and it was
especially evident in the firs t half.
The Shellymen held a nine point
advantage at half time, and at
one time in the third quarter led
by 13. Then the visitors caught
fire and led by Kocivera, pulled .
to within 2 points of the Huskies
with about six minutes to go, and
things looked very black indeed.
With the abandonment of veterans, the Huskies turned their
backs from the wall and slowly
but surely pulled themselves out
of danger. A belated last minute
spurt by the K-Towners fell short,
and the Huskies had chalked up
another victory on the right side
of the ledger.
The Maroon and Gold attack
was led by Doug Erickson and Joe
Ond ru la , Doug collecting 20 and
Jumpin' Joe accounting for 23.

His Hobb y—
BLOOMSBURG
( Continued from page 2)
Department and at the head of
this organization is the assistant
coach and Dean of Men, John
Hoch. To keep up with the requirements of this position Mr.
Hoch must write all news releases. This means that anything of
interest that happens to Bloomsburg, or any of its faculty or students, is written up by him and
turned over to the local papers.
When there is a news item of interest to the home town of one
of the students, it is he who sees
that that particular paper gets
the full story. If Bloomsburg is
to be represented at some meeting or dinner the most likely man
to represent it will be John Hoch.
Now to most people this would
represent a full schedule with no
ifs , ands, or buts. But Mr. Hoch
has still another j ob for which he
must prepare and carry out. He
must teach an occasional History
or Government course and, when
the need arises, a course on Educaion. This is during the regular
session; during the summer session s, however, he tea ches full
time and still manages to carry on
his other duties.
So it goes from day to day,
month to month, year to year.
This is the hobby of John Hoch.
It is a full time one, which must
be, and is, well done. And if , in
the future, he should be given
some additional task, you can be
sure it will take its proper place
in his vast collection of "hobbies".

the requirements for club members and said they would be enforced.
