move; the rapid growth of the
major Alaskan cities and high cost
of living in those areas; the scarcity of jobs; and the incomparable
beauty of the Alaskan scenery.

First F.T.A. Meeting
The firs t meeting of the Future
Teachers of America was held in
Science Hall on October 14, 1953.
There was an extremely large
number of Juniors and Seniors at
the meeting. Roll was taken, and
the following officers were elected:
President, Al McManus; Vice-President, James Davenport ; Secretary, Pat Edwards; and Treasurer,
Rose Marie Grant.
Dr. Hallisy and Miss Hazen each
spoke briefly about the purpose of
the club and the programs planned
for the coming year.
The purpose of the organization
is to promote interest in education
and to familiarize prospective
teachers with the problems, professional obligations, and opportunities which will soon be theirs.
The aims of the F.T.A. are to
improve the professional advancement of its members, to help them
to become familiar with professional organizations and to participate in their activities before
active service as teachers. Then,
*too, tsacher and student welfare
promotion is stressed , and members are urged to keep in contact
with national and state educational problems and issues. To render
service to the community, to foster
professional zeal, and to uphold
educational standards are further
aims of the F.T.A.
The club has as its over-all
purpose acquainting prospective
teachers with the problems of the
profession in order to arouse the
interest of worthwhile men and
women in education as a career.
The activities of the F.T.A. are
many and varied. Supplying tutors
for students who are having scholastic difficulty in any course is
probably the most beneficial to the
- entire college community. Sponsoring a Career Day or high school
visitation day is an established
yearly responsibility of the F.T.A.
Other activities include viewing
educational films, sponsoring assembly programs, and presenting
plays or skits. Special programs
are the rule rather than the exception. Eminent educators have
been guest speakers for many
meetings.
Membership in the F. T. A. is
oDen to all Juniors and Seniors in
the three curriculums; business,
elementary, and secondary. All
Juniors and Seniors are cordially
invited to jo in the F.T.A.

At the meeting, the state representatives discussed the activities
of P.S.E.A. in the recent legislative
action and also the workshop for

Mr. Moser, one of the state officials spoke of the benefits of the
sales tax towards education. He
stressed the point that seventyfive million dollars, the proceeds
from the sales tax, are being spent
for new buildings, transportation,
books, and aid to state teachers
colleges. The teacher, however,
has not received one cent in increase of salary from this tax.
Further information on this subj ect may be found in October 's
P.S.E.A. Journal.
Mr. Snyder, another representative of P. S. E. A. discussed the
teachers conference, to be held in
Wllkes-Barre October 29th and
30th. He invited a committee of
F. T. A. members to attend this
conference which twenty-four hundred teachers are expected.
Each high school subject will be
discussed at the conference by
leading men in each field. There
will also be general discussions
about education.
Following this business meeting,
a delicious dinner was served in
the dining room. After the dinner
a fllm "Skippy and the Three R's"
was shown in the visual education
room, then the meeting was adjo urned.

Your Manners Are Showin g
Though this may come as both a shock and a surprise to a few
people, the new dining room plan has met with overwhelming approval
from the majority of students. Initiated on October 12, it has only been
in operation for .one week. Even in this short time, people have formed
opinions on the subj ect, and for the most part, they are favorable.
This new system of table service has been a long needed improvement here at B.S.T.C. Some may differ with this statement, but the
facts are there to prove its truth.
Nothing will help you achieve success, both professionally and socially, as much as good manners will. Good manners are not something
that can be put on and taken off at will — they come from KNOWING
what is right and KNOWING THAT YOU KNOW. Only through constant application of good manners can one become assured and relaxed
when out in public or in mixed company.
Whether you believe it or net , an individual's behavior reflects the
real person. Manners, which are a big part of behavior, are often the
only thing that people, whom we meet briefly or in passing, have to
judge us by. Your manners when in such a situation should be as
natural to you as breathing.
In table service such as ours, the ideal table consists of four women
and four men arranged alternately. Since this is not possible, we have
come as close to the ideal as we could. The head of the table serves the
meat, the person immediately on his left serves the potatoes, and the
one on his left serves the vegetables. The filled plate is then passed all
the way to the left and to the person on the right of the host. Each
plate is filled in like manner until all persons have been served. The
same procedure is followed if seconds are desired. The dessert is served
after everyone has finished and both center plates and service plates
have been removed. No one leaves the table until all have finished. The
signal for leaving comes from the head of the table.
Besides good manners in the dining room, we should also remember
that good posture is essential at the table. It is not the place to demonstrate your acrobatic or contortionist ability. Sit erect with easy grace,
keep your feet on the floor, and elbows off the table.
This new dining room plan gives everyone a chance to put into
practice good manners. This is the place to learn right from wrong and
to acquire social ease and grace. As future teachers, it is your duty to
know these things.
Good table manners are not inborn or naturally acquired — they
must be cultivated. They are something you owe to yourself and to your
own self respect. If you respect yourself , others will follow suit. Be at
your sincere best all the time—not only at dinner time but at breakfast
and lunch alike. Good manners practiced all the time will give you the
sense of poise and assurance you'll need on that luncheon interview with
a prospective employer.
While we're on the subj ect of manners, let's side track a little and
consider our behavior in all situations and not only the dining room
alone. Take for instance, the quiet lounge. When most people do 1have
a few free min.uj;es, they come here to relax and look at television , but
unfortunately, it's anything but relaxing. Why one actually has to strain
oneself to hear the program over the din of chatter! Be considerate. If
you must converse, go outside in the hall so that your voice will be out
of the range of hearing. You'd be surprised at how annoying a mere
whisper can be when one is trying to concentrate on a show. Try and
put the GOLDEN RULE into practice.
This is your life—make the most of it. Your college and its faculty
are doing their utmost to help. Now it's up to you, the students. You
are the only ones who can help yourselves to develop into the young
men and women to whom your college will point with pride and admiration. Make the most of this opportunity and you'll never regret it.
All these helpful hints and especially this new dining room plan are
wonderful for you people who are introverts and do not make friends
easily. Smile at the person next to you. Chances are 100 to 1 he'll smile
back. Break the ice and things will run smoothly. You'll be amazed at
all the new friends you'll acquire. Things are what you make them and
this new service can really be fun. Keep your head high, your smile
bright, and remember — "YOUR MANNERS ARE SHOWING ! 1"

This is what we've been hearing
this past week and though you
might be a bit skeptical, it sounds
pretty good. We not only sound

One of those creatures from the
lowest species of human life, a
freshman named Bert Hendrickson, showed she had developed
some part of the cerebellum when
she appeared in a heavy poplin
dress of teal blue and black
checks. A burst of fullness from
the shoulder ends abruptly at the
mock empire waist. I say mock
because there is another waistline
farther down, this time in the
right place, and cinched by a tiny
belt. Following fashion right down
the line, the dress also has a full
skirt and even sleeves, three-quarter length. Bert chose to wear
with it plain black flats , and all
j oking aside, she really looked
nice.
Mary O'Braitis has something
new in the line of sweater sets. A
rosy-pink pullover with, a whitetrimmed turtleneck is covered with
a cardigan of the same color, tributtoned at the waist. The white
line of trimming carries one's attention to the dark grey pleated
skirt. Smart !
Nancy Williams splurged some
of her millions on a new dress last
week. The dark brown two-piecer
has a double mandarin collar of
the same brown and brown-dotted
white faille. The dotted faille also
drops in an inverted "V" from a
slim, brown velvet belt. Nancy
completes the outfit with dark
brown suede pumps.
The men of the college turned
up with some smart accessories.
John Panichello owns an out-ofthis-world sport j acket of fine corduroy. Now you ask what's so

Getting back to feminine fashions for just a moment, here's a

Come on Huskies r Mush!
That's the cheer you'll hear going up from the stands on Mount
Olympus these crisp Saturday afternoons when there's a football game,
in progress. The autumn pageantry of these colorful athletic contests
would not be complete without the rousing cheers led by.'our team of
energetic cheerleaders. Few people realize how vital these girls are to
the team and to the spectators. What is that saying about not missing
som ething u n t il it 's gone ? One game without the cheerleaders would
be enough to make the people sit up and take notice.
For the cheerleaders are what keep the crowd at the "spectators
sports " of football and basketball from being j ust "spectators. " The
girls keep the interest high and enable the crowd to take an active part
in the game through their cheering, and to actually play the game with
the team.
Cheerleaders need more than j ust the ability to yell. A certain
amount of lung power is necessary, of course, but appearance and pep
are j ust as irriportant, if not more so. The girls are our representatives
to other schools and must show themselves as good ambassadors. Their
appearance and manners are always closely watched by others who
want to know what kind of a school we have. Inexhaustible energy is
the mark of the good cheerleader and the snappy motions must be
performed vigorously if the spectators are to catch the feeling of enthusiasm.
The cheerleading squad at Bloomsburg consists of six girls: two
freshmen, two sophomores, and two juniors. Two new girls are chosen
each year by the other cheerleaders, Mr. Johnson, who is the faculty
advisor, and the Pep Committee, which consists of Tom Higgins and
Betsy Hendershot. This year the two freshmen were chosen from a
group of about twenty-five able candidates on the basis of their pep,
appearance, and potential ability.
Our cheerleaders are well known and popular, but there may be a
few things you didn't know about them. Here you have the personal
data about the girls:
Bobbi Roadside, one of our newly chosen freshmen, comes to us
from Frankford High School in Philadelphia. At Frankford Bobbi was
a cheerleader in her ^senior year. She was a member of the glee club
Society. In high school she served as represenand the National Honor
tative for the school paper and for the athletic committee to the student
council, secretary of the senior class, and secretary of the Senior Morning Committee. Her favorite sports are horsebackriding, ten nis, baseball , and swimming. Bobbi has always been a football fan, and her love
for sports led her to try out for cheerleading. At Bloomsburg Bobbi
will be in the business curriculum.
Ann Ryan, another of our fresh frosh, comes from Lower Merion
High School in Philadelphia. Ann was a cheerleader for two years at
Lower Merion and was certain of the team in junior high school. Lower
Merion is qui te a large school, and their team consists of twelve girls.
The bleachers have a cheering section marked off there, an idea that is
being tried this year for the first time at BSTC. Ann likes all sports in
general, but her favorites are swimming and lacrosse, an uncommon
sport in this section. At Lower Merion Ann was vice president of her
sophomore and senior classes, and treasurer of student Council. Ann
likes cheering because of the opportunity to meet new people. She will
be in the elementary curriculum at Bloomsburg.
Judy Steph en s, a sophomore in the business curriculum, lives in
Ardmore and also attended Lower Merion High School. Judy was a
cheerleader there for two years, and this is her second year on the
BSTC squad. She was a member of the National Honor Society and
served as secretary of the student council, secretary of the junior class,
and worked on the school paper and the yearbook. At Bloomsburg, she
was in last year's Freshman Talent Show and the Fashion Show, and
is a member of the Customs Committee this year. Her favorite sports
are tennis, swimming, and bowling. Judy likes cheerleading because it
helps one to really get into the spirit of things, to get a better understanding of sports, and to get to know people.
Mary Hoffecker, also a sophomore in the business curriculum, comes
from Yeadon High School near Philadelphia. It seems Philadelphia is
the town for cheerleaders, since four of our six girls come from there.
Mary started her cheerleading career early, when she was the high
school mascot as a first grader. At Yeadon she was a cheerleader for
three years. She was a member of the National Honor Society, the
school choir, the athletic association, and the literary staff of the year
book. Mary was in the senior play and the Spring Frolic, an annual
musical show at Yeadon. She was on the basketball team and captain
of the hockey team. She is a member of the Business Education Club
and the Customs Committee. Last year she appeared in the Freshman
Talent Show and also in the all school Talent Show. Mary 's hobby is
playing the ukelele, and she is a talented and graceful dancer. One of
her favorite sports is hockey.
Mary is captain of the cheerleading team this year, the captai n
being chosen by the votes of the cheerleaders. It is her job to see that
the team is well organized, and works smoothly, co-operating with Mr.
Johnson and the Pep Committee. She must call practice at least twice
a week, and practices are held in Navy Hall auditorium.
Mary Lou Kubic is a junior in the business curriculum beginning
her third year as a cheerleader for BSTC. She is from Mountaintop,
where she went to Fairview High School. At Fairview Mary Lou was
a cheerleader for four years and captain for one year. She was a member of the National Honor Society and the glee club. In high school
she served as student director of the school play and editor of the school
paper. She was also representative for the Athletic Committee to the
student council. In her freshman year at Bloomsburg, Mary Lou was a
candidate for Varsity Queen. She is a member of the Business Education Club. Her favorite sports are tennis and basketball and her hobbies
include knitting, pinochle, and making an athletic scrapbook which she
has kept all through high school and college. Mary Lou enj oys cheerleading because she likes all sports, especially basketball.
t
Last and least (in size, that is, not in ability ) we have little Ruthie
Gillman, also a junior from Mountaintop. Ruthie is in the elementary
curriculum and this is her third year as a cheerleader for BSTC. At
Fairview she was a member of the National Honor Society and the glee
club. She was a cheerleader for three years. Ruthie served as vice
president of her senior class and was in the senior play. At Bloomsburg
she was a candidate for Co-ed of the Year as a freshman. Her hobbies
include knitting and swimming. She is a Stan Kenton fan , as are all
the cheerleaders.
There they are, our cheerleaders — a talented and energetic squad.
Let's support them and the team. It doesn't do a school any good to
have a top-notch cheerleading team if the students don't attend tho
pep rallies and the games. Let's take advantage of the fact that we
have a capable group of cheerleaders and raise our P.Q. (Pep Quotient)
to the top!

Husky Hcdf back
SPORTS SCUTTLEBUTT
by BILL BITNER
Bernie Mont
Portra it of a
Gridder
Before the season opened Coach
Jack Yohe was prompted to express his feelings about Bernie
Mont by saying, "I wish I had
seven more like him." Last Saturday in the Huskies' struggle with
Scranton he would have settled for
the original, but the star halfback
was destined to view the game
from the bench because of a
shoulder inj ury sustained in practice.
Why would a coach like to have
two backfields of Bernie Monts ?
Well , the 21 year old senior from
Lehman Township came to Bloomsburg four years ago after hanging
up an enviable athletic record as
a winner of 10 varsity awards,
four in football, a like number in
baseball and two in basketball,
and topped it off by captaining his
High School grid-mates to a seven
win-two loss season. At the close
of his high school career Bernie
was set on a football shot at the
University of Georgia, until his
coach, Bob Martin, a former BSTC
great, talked him into giving the
land of the Husky a fling.
So Bernie first came to the
Bloomsburg campus in the fall of
'50 and performed for Coach Bob
Redman in a varsity capacity as a
freshman on a team that was to
lose only to West Chester. The
following year he was a member of
the undefeated, untied championship Huskies, and this in Bernie's
opinion was the biggest thrill that
he has ever experienced in football
—to have been a member of the
State Teachers College Championship Eleven of '51.
The '52 season saw the coming
of Coach Yohe and his introduction of the fast moving split-T
formation to the single wing-minded Huskies which allowed Bernie
to swing into high gear. Bernie
racked six touchdowns up and an
extra point for good measure in
his first year as a convert to the
T, and started off this season with
a bang by registering a TD against
Wilkes College in the season 's
opener. After the first game Bernie fell prey to "Old Man Injury "
in the form of a shoulder injury
which had troubled him while he
was still in high school. He is now
awaiting doctors orders before returning to the squad.
When asked what was the best
team he played against since he
came to Bloom, Bernie admitted '
that last years West Chester eleven was the toughest, and that Earl
Hirsch, the Ram's all-State half
back, was as good as any he has
seen. This brought us then to the
question of teammates and their
merits, and Bernie was quick to
reply with Russ Verhousky as the
best of the Huskies he has ever
.seen on Mount Olympus, but there
have been lots more that weren't
too far behind.
Bernie plans to marry a former
BSTC student. Miss Beryl Bevan,
of West Nanticoke. The date has
been set for November 25.
WESLEY FELLOWSHIP
Miss Edna Hazen was guest
speaker at the Wesley Fellowship
meeting held Tuesday, Oct. 13. She
spoke about her recent trip to the
Holy Land.
Following the meeting, the officers servea refreshments.
A Halloween Party has been
scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 27.
TO THE VICTORS . . .. The Royals of Scranton arrived on Mt.
Olympus last Saturday (as advertised), and took the college heroes to
task by a 25-7 count. The Scoreboard reading when the final gun was
sounded hardly did justice to the calibre of game that was exhibited by
both teams. When the final toll was taken on first dowys the Huskies
outshone their rivals 15-12, and at the same time outgained them on
the ground by five yards. But in bringing all this into the light we
shouldn't lose sight of the fact that Scranton did score more touchdowns, three to be exact. This shows up in red ink on the balance sheet,
in the form of the first Husky loss of the season, and the first in many
moons on the Mount. To anyone that saw the game it appeared as
though Jim Lavery was the offensive difference between the two clubs.
He carried the ball 13 times from scrimmage and netted 123 yards, while
catching five passes for 146 yards. Rather a nice show for an after:
"
noon 's effort.
BASKETBALL'S NEW LOOK . . . . Coach Harold Shelly has already
made his initial call for this season's cage hopefuls, and as expected, he
is flushed with a wealth of hardwood talent. Coach Shelly's boys will
be the defending State Teachers College Champs this season and as a
result they will be sporting the campus' newest look in wearing apparel,
the championship j acket. However, there may be a slight delay until
the twenty odd jacket s are seen around campus in their full splendor
because it is believed that the manufacturer didn't have,a college
basketball team in mind when filling the order, or else he may have
gotten it mixed with a government contract for pup tents. Oh, you
don't think so? Well, you should have seen the one they sent Larry
Bush — it would have fit Carver Hall Tower better.
LOOKING AROUND WE FIND . . . . The Owls of New Haven will
entertain the Huskies on Halloween Day in an effort to avenge a 22-12
defeat handed them on Mt. Olympus last year. A look at the Connecticut tutors reveals an undefeated team to date as a result of 18 players
returning for grid duty supplemented by a host of frosh talent . . . The
Huskies should, without going too far out on the limb, handle California
by two touchdowns and maybe a good deal more. This of course is depending largely on the number of reserves Coach Yohe calls upon after
the Huskies forge a margin of victory big enough to allow for experiment . . . Last Saturday, Shippensburg was up to their old tricks of
kick 'em when they 're down in murdering lowly Kutztown 61-0. Now this
is the way the score must read if one is to expect a conference championship, but at the same time there is another part to this formula and
it reads, "Thou shaft schedule no teams that can beat thee, such as
West Chester and Bloomsburg." This is a very important part of the
formula that may allow the Red Raiders to back into a conference
championship while Bloom and West Chester are busy cutting each
other's throat.
Huskies Trounce
Trenton Eleven
The Bloomsburg Husk ies ran
roughshod over the Trenton State
Teachers by a score of 48-0 before
a homecoming crowd of about
2700. The alumni saw their alma
mater run completely wild in one
of their all-time highs in scoring.
The game was highlighted by the
crazy-legged running of Freshman
Bob Tilburg, ex-Kane flash , who
ran for eighteen points on his
eighteenth birthday.
Early in the first period Sophomore Mike Lashendock flipped to
versatile Jim Browning who ran
35 yards for the first Husky score.
This play was a repeat performance of a touchdown that was
scored the previous week against
Mansfield with the same combination of Lashendock and Browning.
The ball changed hands several
times as both teams were playing
"heads-up" ball. As the whistle
blew to end the first quarter BSTC
was threatening on the Lions 20.
Trenton bolstered their defense
and withstood four smashing blows
of Shamokin's hard-charging fullback, Barney Osevala, to end the
threat. The out-of-state teachers
took over but ran up against a
stone wall led by Charlie Skiptunas and Tom Shuey. Regaining
possession of the ball Coach Yohe 's
chargers gained yard after yard
with Osevala and Browning doing
heavy duty. Barney finally hit off
right tackle and piled over the
goal line. Little Charlie Casper of
Bellefonte converted for a 14-0
score. Two plays after the klckoff
Rudy Mueller, who was playing
terrific defensive ball for the
Lions, quick-kicked and halfbacks
Bob Tilburg and Jim Browning recrossed, with swivel-hipped BrownIng racing 45 yards to the Trenton
24 where he was knocked out of
bounds by fleet-footed John Sllady .
With only a short time to play 'til
half-time Plymouth's Ned Reese
did some quick thinking and rifled
a pass to Tilburg who ran the rernalnlng few yards to pay dirt.
The Yohemen did a splendid j ob
the first half visually as well as
statistically. Whether Trenton had
enough material to stop the rampaging Huskies or not , they certainly hadn 't shown much to this
point. In the yards gained department of the first half Bloomsburg
had 134 to Trenton's miserable 20,
and in first downs Bloom had 9 to
their skimpy one.
Trenton got the nod to kick.
Tilburg began his second half barrage by bulldozing his way 65
yards on 3 carries to the poorly
defended Trenton goal line. Casper
kicked his fourth extra point In as
many tries making the score 28-0.
The New Jersey Teachers were
looking like a ball club for the
first time as they penetrated
Husky territory to the 25. But
then Bloom got back together and
took over from there on in.
The fourth quarter was marked
bv a spray of unusual touchdowns
of the Bloomsburg line. Right end
Richard Strine intercepted a pass
and ran untouched for 72 yards
and a 35-0 score. Trenton couldn't
get "anywhere no how", and Bloom
regained possession of the ball.
Bob Tilburg sliced off left tackle
and ran 60 yards for another six
adding up to an overwhelming 41-0
score. With a few minutes remaining in the game, Coach Yohe put
in an entirely new club, which was
composed mainly of freshmen.
Trenton was forced to kick. Don
Wright charged the kicker and
threw himself in the path of the
flying ball deflecting it high in the
air. Harry Hughes, a WilliamSport
product, caught the ball and ran
across with the final tally. Casper
made his fifth of sixth ties and
when the whistle blew to end the
game Bloomsburg led by an outstanding score of 48-0. Rudy Mueller and Royer Sweeney starred for
the losers.

move; the rapid growth of the
major Alaskan cities and high cost
of living in those areas; the scarcity of jobs; and the incomparable
beauty of the Alaskan scenery.

First F.T.A. Meeting
The firs t meeting of the Future
Teachers of America was held in
Science Hall on October 14, 1953.
There was an extremely large
number of Juniors and Seniors at
the meeting. Roll was taken, and
the following officers were elected:
President, Al McManus; Vice-President, James Davenport ; Secretary, Pat Edwards; and Treasurer,
Rose Marie Grant.
Dr. Hallisy and Miss Hazen each
spoke briefly about the purpose of
the club and the programs planned
for the coming year.
The purpose of the organization
is to promote interest in education
and to familiarize prospective
teachers with the problems, professional obligations, and opportunities which will soon be theirs.
The aims of the F.T.A. are to
improve the professional advancement of its members, to help them
to become familiar with professional organizations and to participate in their activities before
active service as teachers. Then,
*too, tsacher and student welfare
promotion is stressed , and members are urged to keep in contact
with national and state educational problems and issues. To render
service to the community, to foster
professional zeal, and to uphold
educational standards are further
aims of the F.T.A.
The club has as its over-all
purpose acquainting prospective
teachers with the problems of the
profession in order to arouse the
interest of worthwhile men and
women in education as a career.
The activities of the F.T.A. are
many and varied. Supplying tutors
for students who are having scholastic difficulty in any course is
probably the most beneficial to the
- entire college community. Sponsoring a Career Day or high school
visitation day is an established
yearly responsibility of the F.T.A.
Other activities include viewing
educational films, sponsoring assembly programs, and presenting
plays or skits. Special programs
are the rule rather than the exception. Eminent educators have
been guest speakers for many
meetings.
Membership in the F. T. A. is
oDen to all Juniors and Seniors in
the three curriculums; business,
elementary, and secondary. All
Juniors and Seniors are cordially
invited to jo in the F.T.A.

Chairmen Meet
The fall meeting of P. S. E. A.
regional chairmen took place in
the Alumni Room of Noetling Hall
on Thursday, October the 8th.
At the meeting, the state representatives discussed the activities
of P.S.E.A. in the recent legislative
action and also the workshop for
teachers held this summer.
Mr. Moser, one of the state officials spoke of the benefits of the
sales tax towards education. He
stressed the point that seventyfive million dollars, the proceeds
from the sales tax, are being spent
for new buildings, transportation,
books, and aid to state teachers
colleges. The teacher, however,
has not received one cent in increase of salary from this tax.
Further information on this subj ect may be found in October 's
P.S.E.A. Journal.
Mr. Snyder, another representative of P. S. E. A. discussed the
teachers conference, to be held in
Wllkes-Barre October 29th and
30th. He invited a committee of
F. T. A. members to attend this
conference which twenty-four hundred teachers are expected.
Each high school subject will be
discussed at the conference by
leading men in each field. There
will also be general discussions
about education.
Following this business meeting,
a delicious dinner was served in
the dining room. After the dinner
a fllm "Skippy and the Three R's"
was shown in the visual education
room, then the meeting was adjo urned.

Your Manners Are Showin g
Though this may come as both a shock and a surprise to a few
people, the new dining room plan has met with overwhelming approval
from the majority of students. Initiated on October 12, it has only been
in operation for .one week. Even in this short time, people have formed
opinions on the subj ect, and for the most part, they are favorable.
This new system of table service has been a long needed improvement here at B.S.T.C. Some may differ with this statement, but the
facts are there to prove its truth.
Nothing will help you achieve success, both professionally and socially, as much as good manners will. Good manners are not something
that can be put on and taken off at will — they come from KNOWING
what is right and KNOWING THAT YOU KNOW. Only through constant application of good manners can one become assured and relaxed
when out in public or in mixed company.
Whether you believe it or net , an individual's behavior reflects the
real person. Manners, which are a big part of behavior, are often the
only thing that people, whom we meet briefly or in passing, have to
judge us by. Your manners when in such a situation should be as
natural to you as breathing.
In table service such as ours, the ideal table consists of four women
and four men arranged alternately. Since this is not possible, we have
come as close to the ideal as we could. The head of the table serves the
meat, the person immediately on his left serves the potatoes, and the
one on his left serves the vegetables. The filled plate is then passed all
the way to the left and to the person on the right of the host. Each
plate is filled in like manner until all persons have been served. The
same procedure is followed if seconds are desired. The dessert is served
after everyone has finished and both center plates and service plates
have been removed. No one leaves the table until all have finished. The
signal for leaving comes from the head of the table.
Besides good manners in the dining room, we should also remember
that good posture is essential at the table. It is not the place to demonstrate your acrobatic or contortionist ability. Sit erect with easy grace,
keep your feet on the floor, and elbows off the table.
This new dining room plan gives everyone a chance to put into
practice good manners. This is the place to learn right from wrong and
to acquire social ease and grace. As future teachers, it is your duty to
know these things.
Good table manners are not inborn or naturally acquired — they
must be cultivated. They are something you owe to yourself and to your
own self respect. If you respect yourself , others will follow suit. Be at
your sincere best all the time—not only at dinner time but at breakfast
and lunch alike. Good manners practiced all the time will give you the
sense of poise and assurance you'll need on that luncheon interview with
a prospective employer.
While we're on the subj ect of manners, let's side track a little and
consider our behavior in all situations and not only the dining room
alone. Take for instance, the quiet lounge. When most people do 1have
a few free min.uj;es, they come here to relax and look at television , but
unfortunately, it's anything but relaxing. Why one actually has to strain
oneself to hear the program over the din of chatter! Be considerate. If
you must converse, go outside in the hall so that your voice will be out
of the range of hearing. You'd be surprised at how annoying a mere
whisper can be when one is trying to concentrate on a show. Try and
put the GOLDEN RULE into practice.
This is your life—make the most of it. Your college and its faculty
are doing their utmost to help. Now it's up to you, the students. You
are the only ones who can help yourselves to develop into the young
men and women to whom your college will point with pride and admiration. Make the most of this opportunity and you'll never regret it.
All these helpful hints and especially this new dining room plan are
wonderful for you people who are introverts and do not make friends
easily. Smile at the person next to you. Chances are 100 to 1 he'll smile
back. Break the ice and things will run smoothly. You'll be amazed at
all the new friends you'll acquire. Things are what you make them and
this new service can really be fun. Keep your head high, your smile
bright, and remember — "YOUR MANNERS ARE SHOWING ! 1"

This is what we've been hearing
this past week and though you
might be a bit skeptical, it sounds
pretty good. We not only sound
good,* but look much better. No

One of those creatures from the
lowest species of human life, a
freshman named Bert Hendrickson, showed she had developed
some part of the cerebellum when
she appeared in a heavy poplin
dress of teal blue and black
checks. A burst of fullness from
the shoulder ends abruptly at the
mock empire waist. I say mock
because there is another waistline
farther down, this time in the
right place, and cinched by a tiny
belt. Following fashion right down
the line, the dress also has a full
skirt and even sleeves, three-quarter length. Bert chose to wear
with it plain black flats , and all
j oking aside, she really looked
nice.
Mary O'Braitis has something
new in the line of sweater sets. A
rosy-pink pullover with, a whitetrimmed turtleneck is covered with
a cardigan of the same color, tributtoned at the waist. The white
line of trimming carries one's attention to the dark grey pleated
skirt. Smart !
Nancy Williams splurged some
of her millions on a new dress last
week. The dark brown two-piecer
has a double mandarin collar of
the same brown and brown-dotted
white faille. The dotted faille also
drops in an inverted "V" from a
slim, brown velvet belt. Nancy
completes the outfit with dark
brown suede pumps.
The men of the college turned
up with some smart accessories.
John Panichello owns an out-ofthis-world sport j acket of fine corduroy. Now you ask what's so
different about that. WELL, the

yellow. Oh, and did you ever notice Charles Pope's powder blue
loafers ?

Getting back to feminine fashions for just a moment, here's a
bonanza for someone. Skirts are

mind. What are we going to do

Before leaving you fellow inmates, I must make an apology

Come on Huskies r Mush!
That's the cheer you'll hear going up from the stands on Mount
Olympus these crisp Saturday afternoons when there's a football game,
in progress. The autumn pageantry of these colorful athletic contests
would not be complete without the rousing cheers led by.'our team of
energetic cheerleaders. Few people realize how vital these girls are to
the team and to the spectators. What is that saying about not missing
som ething u n t il it 's gone ? One game without the cheerleaders would
be enough to make the people sit up and take notice.
For the cheerleaders are what keep the crowd at the "spectators
sports " of football and basketball from being j ust "spectators. " The
girls keep the interest high and enable the crowd to take an active part
in the game through their cheering, and to actually play the game with
the team.
Cheerleaders need more than j ust the ability to yell. A certain
amount of lung power is necessary, of course, but appearance and pep
are j ust as irriportant, if not more so. The girls are our representatives
to other schools and must show themselves as good ambassadors. Their
appearance and manners are always closely watched by others who
want to know what kind of a school we have. Inexhaustible energy is
the mark of the good cheerleader and the snappy motions must be
performed vigorously if the spectators are to catch the feeling of enthusiasm.
The cheerleading squad at Bloomsburg consists of six girls: two
freshmen, two sophomores, and two juniors. Two new girls are chosen
each year by the other cheerleaders, Mr. Johnson, who is the faculty
advisor, and the Pep Committee, which consists of Tom Higgins and
Betsy Hendershot. This year the two freshmen were chosen from a
group of about twenty-five able candidates on the basis of their pep,
appearance, and potential ability.
Our cheerleaders are well known and popular, but there may be a
few things you didn't know about them. Here you have the personal
data about the girls:
Bobbi Roadside, one of our newly chosen freshmen, comes to us
from Frankford High School in Philadelphia. At Frankford Bobbi was
a cheerleader in her ^senior year. She was a member of the glee club
Society. In high school she served as represenand the National Honor
tative for the school paper and for the athletic committee to the student
council, secretary of the senior class, and secretary of the Senior Morning Committee. Her favorite sports are horsebackriding, ten nis, baseball , and swimming. Bobbi has always been a football fan, and her love
for sports led her to try out for cheerleading. At Bloomsburg Bobbi
will be in the business curriculum.
Ann Ryan, another of our fresh frosh, comes from Lower Merion
High School in Philadelphia. Ann was a cheerleader for two years at
Lower Merion and was certain of the team in junior high school. Lower
Merion is qui te a large school, and their team consists of twelve girls.
The bleachers have a cheering section marked off there, an idea that is
being tried this year for the first time at BSTC. Ann likes all sports in
general, but her favorites are swimming and lacrosse, an uncommon
sport in this section. At Lower Merion Ann was vice president of her
sophomore and senior classes, and treasurer of student Council. Ann
likes cheering because of the opportunity to meet new people. She will
be in the elementary curriculum at Bloomsburg.
Judy Steph en s, a sophomore in the business curriculum, lives in
Ardmore and also attended Lower Merion High School. Judy was a
cheerleader there for two years, and this is her second year on the
BSTC squad. She was a member of the National Honor Society and
served as secretary of the student council, secretary of the junior class,
and worked on the school paper and the yearbook. At Bloomsburg, she
was in last year's Freshman Talent Show and the Fashion Show, and
is a member of the Customs Committee this year. Her favorite sports
are tennis, swimming, and bowling. Judy likes cheerleading because it
helps one to really get into the spirit of things, to get a better understanding of sports, and to get to know people.
Mary Hoffecker, also a sophomore in the business curriculum, comes
from Yeadon High School near Philadelphia. It seems Philadelphia is
the town for cheerleaders, since four of our six girls come from there.
Mary started her cheerleading career early, when she was the high
school mascot as a first grader. At Yeadon she was a cheerleader for
three years. She was a member of the National Honor Society, the
school choir, the athletic association, and the literary staff of the year
book. Mary was in the senior play and the Spring Frolic, an annual
musical show at Yeadon. She was on the basketball team and captain
of the hockey team. She is a member of the Business Education Club
and the Customs Committee. Last year she appeared in the Freshman
Talent Show and also in the all school Talent Show. Mary 's hobby is
playing the ukelele, and she is a talented and graceful dancer. One of
her favorite sports is hockey.
Mary is captain of the cheerleading team this year, the captai n
being chosen by the votes of the cheerleaders. It is her job to see that
the team is well organized, and works smoothly, co-operating with Mr.
Johnson and the Pep Committee. She must call practice at least twice
a week, and practices are held in Navy Hall auditorium.
Mary Lou Kubic is a junior in the business curriculum beginning
her third year as a cheerleader for BSTC. She is from Mountaintop,
where she went to Fairview High School. At Fairview Mary Lou was
a cheerleader for four years and captain for one year. She was a member of the National Honor Society and the glee club. In high school
she served as student director of the school play and editor of the school
paper. She was also representative for the Athletic Committee to the
student council. In her freshman year at Bloomsburg, Mary Lou was a
candidate for Varsity Queen. She is a member of the Business Education Club. Her favorite sports are tennis and basketball and her hobbies
include knitting, pinochle, and making an athletic scrapbook which she
has kept all through high school and college. Mary Lou enj oys cheerleading because she likes all sports, especially basketball.
t
Last and least (in size, that is, not in ability ) we have little Ruthie
Gillman, also a junior from Mountaintop. Ruthie is in the elementary
curriculum and this is her third year as a cheerleader for BSTC. At
Fairview she was a member of the National Honor Society and the glee
club. She was a cheerleader for three years. Ruthie served as vice
president of her senior class and was in the senior play. At Bloomsburg
she was a candidate for Co-ed of the Year as a freshman. Her hobbies
include knitting and swimming. She is a Stan Kenton fan , as are all
the cheerleaders.
There they are, our cheerleaders — a talented and energetic squad.
Let's support them and the team. It doesn't do a school any good to
have a top-notch cheerleading team if the students don't attend tho
pep rallies and the games. Let's take advantage of the fact that we
have a capable group of cheerleaders and raise our P.Q. (Pep Quotient)
to the top!

Husky Hcdf back
SPORTS SCUTTLEBUTT
by BILL BITNER
Bernie Mont
Portra it of a
Gridder
Before the season opened Coach
Jack Yohe was prompted to express his feelings about Bernie
Mont by saying, "I wish I had
seven more like him." Last Saturday in the Huskies' struggle with
Scranton he would have settled for
the original, but the star halfback
was destined to view the game
from the bench because of a
shoulder inj ury sustained in practice.
Why would a coach like to have
two backfields of Bernie Monts ?
Well , the 21 year old senior from
Lehman Township came to Bloomsburg four years ago after hanging
up an enviable athletic record as
a winner of 10 varsity awards,
four in football, a like number in
baseball and two in basketball,
and topped it off by captaining his
High School grid-mates to a seven
win-two loss season. At the close
of his high school career Bernie
was set on a football shot at the
University of Georgia, until his
coach, Bob Martin, a former BSTC
great, talked him into giving the
land of the Husky a fling.
So Bernie first came to the
Bloomsburg campus in the fall of
'50 and performed for Coach Bob
Redman in a varsity capacity as a
freshman on a team that was to
lose only to West Chester. The
following year he was a member of
the undefeated, untied championship Huskies, and this in Bernie's
opinion was the biggest thrill that
he has ever experienced in football
—to have been a member of the
State Teachers College Championship Eleven of '51.
The '52 season saw the coming
of Coach Yohe and his introduction of the fast moving split-T
formation to the single wing-minded Huskies which allowed Bernie
to swing into high gear. Bernie
racked six touchdowns up and an
extra point for good measure in
his first year as a convert to the
T, and started off this season with
a bang by registering a TD against
Wilkes College in the season 's
opener. After the first game Bernie fell prey to "Old Man Injury "
in the form of a shoulder injury
which had troubled him while he
was still in high school. He is now
awaiting doctors orders before returning to the squad.
When asked what was the best
team he played against since he
came to Bloom, Bernie admitted '
that last years West Chester eleven was the toughest, and that Earl
Hirsch, the Ram's all-State half
back, was as good as any he has
seen. This brought us then to the
question of teammates and their
merits, and Bernie was quick to
reply with Russ Verhousky as the
best of the Huskies he has ever
.seen on Mount Olympus, but there
have been lots more that weren't
too far behind.
Bernie plans to marry a former
BSTC student. Miss Beryl Bevan,
of West Nanticoke. The date has
been set for November 25.
WESLEY FELLOWSHIP
Miss Edna Hazen was guest
speaker at the Wesley Fellowship
meeting held Tuesday, Oct. 13. She
spoke about her recent trip to the
Holy Land.
Following the meeting, the officers servea refreshments.
A Halloween Party has been
scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 27.
TO THE VICTORS . . .. The Royals of Scranton arrived on Mt.
Olympus last Saturday (as advertised), and took the college heroes to
task by a 25-7 count. The Scoreboard reading when the final gun was
sounded hardly did justice to the calibre of game that was exhibited by
both teams. When the final toll was taken on first dowys the Huskies
outshone their rivals 15-12, and at the same time outgained them on
the ground by five yards. But in bringing all this into the light we
shouldn't lose sight of the fact that Scranton did score more touchdowns, three to be exact. This shows up in red ink on the balance sheet,
in the form of the first Husky loss of the season, and the first in many
moons on the Mount. To anyone that saw the game it appeared as
though Jim Lavery was the offensive difference between the two clubs.
He carried the ball 13 times from scrimmage and netted 123 yards, while
catching five passes for 146 yards. Rather a nice show for an after:
"
noon 's effort.
BASKETBALL'S NEW LOOK . . . . Coach Harold Shelly has already
made his initial call for this season's cage hopefuls, and as expected, he
is flushed with a wealth of hardwood talent. Coach Shelly's boys will
be the defending State Teachers College Champs this season and as a
result they will be sporting the campus' newest look in wearing apparel,
the championship j acket. However, there may be a slight delay until
the twenty odd jacket s are seen around campus in their full splendor
because it is believed that the manufacturer didn't have,a college
basketball team in mind when filling the order, or else he may have
gotten it mixed with a government contract for pup tents. Oh, you
don't think so? Well, you should have seen the one they sent Larry
Bush — it would have fit Carver Hall Tower better.
LOOKING AROUND WE FIND . . . . The Owls of New Haven will
entertain the Huskies on Halloween Day in an effort to avenge a 22-12
defeat handed them on Mt. Olympus last year. A look at the Connecticut tutors reveals an undefeated team to date as a result of 18 players
returning for grid duty supplemented by a host of frosh talent . . . The
Huskies should, without going too far out on the limb, handle California
by two touchdowns and maybe a good deal more. This of course is depending largely on the number of reserves Coach Yohe calls upon after
the Huskies forge a margin of victory big enough to allow for experiment . . . Last Saturday, Shippensburg was up to their old tricks of
kick 'em when they 're down in murdering lowly Kutztown 61-0. Now this
is the way the score must read if one is to expect a conference championship, but at the same time there is another part to this formula and
it reads, "Thou shaft schedule no teams that can beat thee, such as
West Chester and Bloomsburg." This is a very important part of the
formula that may allow the Red Raiders to back into a conference
championship while Bloom and West Chester are busy cutting each
other's throat.
Huskies Trounce
Trenton Eleven
The Bloomsburg Husk ies ran
roughshod over the Trenton State
Teachers by a score of 48-0 before
a homecoming crowd of about
2700. The alumni saw their alma
mater run completely wild in one
of their all-time highs in scoring.
The game was highlighted by the
crazy-legged running of Freshman
Bob Tilburg, ex-Kane flash , who
ran for eighteen points on his
eighteenth birthday.
Early in the first period Sophomore Mike Lashendock flipped to
versatile Jim Browning who ran
35 yards for the first Husky score.
This play was a repeat performance of a touchdown that was
scored the previous week against
Mansfield with the same combination of Lashendock and Browning.
The ball changed hands several
times as both teams were playing
"heads-up" ball. As the whistle
blew to end the first quarter BSTC
was threatening on the Lions 20.
Trenton bolstered their defense
and withstood four smashing blows
of Shamokin's hard-charging fullback, Barney Osevala, to end the
threat. The out-of-state teachers
took over but ran up against a
stone wall led by Charlie Skiptunas and Tom Shuey. Regaining
possession of the ball Coach Yohe 's
chargers gained yard after yard
with Osevala and Browning doing
heavy duty. Barney finally hit off
right tackle and piled over the
goal line. Little Charlie Casper of
Bellefonte converted for a 14-0
score. Two plays after the klckoff
Rudy Mueller, who was playing
terrific defensive ball for the
Lions, quick-kicked and halfbacks
Bob Tilburg and Jim Browning recrossed, with swivel-hipped BrownIng racing 45 yards to the Trenton
24 where he was knocked out of
bounds by fleet-footed John Sllady .
With only a short time to play 'til
half-time Plymouth's Ned Reese
did some quick thinking and rifled
a pass to Tilburg who ran the rernalnlng few yards to pay dirt.
The Yohemen did a splendid j ob
the first half visually as well as
statistically. Whether Trenton had
enough material to stop the rampaging Huskies or not , they certainly hadn 't shown much to this
point. In the yards gained department of the first half Bloomsburg
had 134 to Trenton's miserable 20,
and in first downs Bloom had 9 to
their skimpy one.
Trenton got the nod to kick.
Tilburg began his second half barrage by bulldozing his way 65
yards on 3 carries to the poorly
defended Trenton goal line. Casper
kicked his fourth extra point In as
many tries making the score 28-0.
The New Jersey Teachers were
looking like a ball club for the
first time as they penetrated
Husky territory to the 25. But
then Bloom got back together and
took over from there on in.
The fourth quarter was marked
bv a spray of unusual touchdowns
of the Bloomsburg line. Right end
Richard Strine intercepted a pass
and ran untouched for 72 yards
and a 35-0 score. Trenton couldn't
get "anywhere no how", and Bloom
regained possession of the ball.
Bob Tilburg sliced off left tackle
and ran 60 yards for another six
adding up to an overwhelming 41-0
score. With a few minutes remaining in the game, Coach Yohe put
in an entirely new club, which was
composed mainly of freshmen.
Trenton was forced to kick. Don
Wright charged the kicker and
threw himself in the path of the
flying ball deflecting it high in the
air. Harry Hughes, a WilliamSport
product, caught the ball and ran
across with the final tally. Casper
made his fifth of sixth ties and
when the whistle blew to end the
game Bloomsburg led by an outstanding score of 48-0. Rudy Mueller and Royer Sweeney starred for
the losers.
