Blood Mobile to Marine Officer
Return to Campus To Visit B.S.T.C.
Capt ain E. H. Utley, the Marine
On February 14th Corps
Officer Procurement Officer ,
The Mobile Blood Unit from
Wilkes Barre will once again appear on the campus of Bloomsburg
Stat e Teachers College. For the
entire day of February 14 the unit
will be ready to serve the student s, faculty, and staff of the
college. The location of the unit
is not yet Known because of extensive renovations, but it will be
announced as soon as possible.
During the past four years,
Bloomsburg State Teachers College has donated 616 pints of
blood. 187 pints were given in one
year , the best ever for the college
program.
Although this proj ect is definitely a student function, the faculty and staff are urged to also
rlnnatp.
The stipulations tor giving blood
are that the student wno is under
twenty-one years of age may give
blood providing they have a re
lease signed by their parents.
Those students who are over
twenty-one may donate of their
own accord .
B.S.T.C. has always done a tremendous j ob of giving blood. It is
a good experience for future teachers because they will be called
upon to do the same j ob when they
are out of college.
Dr. Paul Wagner, who is the faculty sponsor of the bloodmobile,
wants no credit for the work that
has been done. He gives it all to
the student committee who have
worked hard during the past years
to get donors and this year seems
to be no exception. This committee is headed this year by Alberta
Semanski, with the folowing students as members: Bob Aurand,
Joan Christie, Jan Feren ce, Ruth
Hippensteel, Mary Hoffecker, Ann
Jenkins, Diann Jones, Joe Keefer,
Donald Levan, Joyce Lundy, Carl
Meyers, Mike Moran, Pat O'Brien,
John Panichello, Jean Robinson,
Roy Rosenberger, Judy Stephens,
Edward White, and Ann Swortwood.
Rember that you may be saving
someone's life with the pint of
blood that you donate on February 14. Give cheerfuly with the
knowledge that you are aiding
some accident victim, some wounded soldier, or some critical patient
in his fight for survival.
L. S, A. Meeting
The regular supper meeting of
L.S.A. was held on January 3, in
the Bloomsburg Lutheran Church.
This was the first supper meeting
of the new year and a delicious
spaghetti dinner menu was served.
A short devotion period was held ,
followed by an interesting movie,
"Answer for Anne " showing the
pathetic plight of displaced persons who would like to become
American citizens and the answer
Anne found to her problem told
the story most eloquently. A
friendship circle was formed to
end the meeting.

To See Yourself
This editorial has beea prepared at the request of, and with the
assistance of, a group of students. The text of this article represents
the views of that group, and not those of any one individual.
Our purpose in writing this editorial is not the usual one. We are
not attempting to arouse anyone to some unknown situation , for no
unknown situation exists. Nor are we trying to reveal any deep secret,
for there is no secret to reveal. The tragic fact is that the subject of
this article is so well known to the student body, it has become so
commonplace, so accepted a routine, that an attempt to reveal anything
would be a foolish waste of time. We would be telling you only what
you already know.
It is with this thought in mind that we can only attempt to view
and discuss the problem of cheating obj ectively and openly.
Firs t of all , were the problem of cheating on a small enough scale,
and sufficiently confined , group pressure would eventually wipe it out.
But, it has reached such a point of flagrancy that if groujp pressure were
to wipe out anything, it would be honesty, not cheating. Apparently—
obviously—this has already happened.
There is no honor system, as such, at Bloomsburg. Now, a generalization as blunt as this demands further explanation, so let us consider
what an honor system represents. Speaking obj ectively, one might define
the ideal honor system as an unwritten, unspoken code of ethics, to
tthich every individual within a given group or situation must conform,
or face the penalties of group pressure and sentiment. There are honor
systems everywhere, even among thieves. We are concerned only with
the college honor system. More specifically, we are concerned only with
the problem of open and obvious cheating during tests and examinations,
and it is apparent and obvious.
It is here that the question arises: WHY ? There are many reasons
why a person might turn to cheating. We will attempt to relate only
the more common cheaters in general can be divided into three major
groups:
Fir st , there is the person who feels that cheating is an absolute
necessity. They would have themelves believe that it represents their
only means of survival. They have become so dependent on cheating as
a means of false reasurrance that, without it, they would foe lost.
Second, there are those unfortunates who feel that "since everyone
else cheats," they too must cheat, in order to compete for their grades.
It is tragic when persons who could make their grades honestly, f eel
that they have to turn to cheating as a means of survival. Perhaps,
there is an ironic justification here.
Third, there are those who are j ust too lazy to apply themselves.
There are few who can honestly admit to themselves not having
cheated during an examination. There are very few who can admit that
they have not actually witnessed it. Certainly, there is no one who is not
f amiliar with at least one method.
Among the many ways of cheating in examinations, here are some
of the most common:
The Copier: Copying is probably the easiest way out, but, of course,
the copier runs the risk of choosing incorrect answers as his reference.
It is hardly the method of a continuous cheater.
The Open Book : This method consists merely of opening a conveniently placed textbook whenever the opportunity presents itself. Although the material is correct, the risk o£ being caugh t is great, espe cially if the instructor happens to be watching.
The Pony : This "miniature " outline is certainly the most preferable
and widely used of the three mentioned. The well organized, systematically arranged pony is as informative as the textbook.1 It is usually
designed to be inconspicuous in size (in order to fit nee tly into the palm
of the hand).
Unfortunately, this editorial will not be read until most of the final
exams have been taken. Perhaps it would have made no difference, anyway. Actually, this is of little consequence since, as we stated before,
our purpose is not to arouse. We are not engaged in a crusade. You know
whether or not you are guilty. If you can honestly admit to yourself that
you are not a guilty party, then your self-satisfaction should be reward
enough. If , howev er , you cannot make this admission, if you have ?>een
tempted to look a little more carefully at yourself , then this article has
achieved its purpose.
We conclude with four memorable lines from the pen of Robert
Burns, expressing a wish that is universal. . .
"I would such gift the Giver give me
To see myself as others see me;
It would from many a blunder free me,
And many a foolish notion."

E my Park looked very sweet in
an avacado-green and navyblue tweed skirt with an avacado belt and blouse to match.
W ith her black felt skirt , Jo
Graeber chose to wear a soft
pi nk scoop-necked j ersey. A
very pretty combination, adding black heels with a rose bud
on each shoe.
E xquisite is the word to describe
Jo Atkinson 's zebra striped
suit consisting of a straight
black skirt and striped bolero
j acket .
L ight blue and beige sweaters
look very nice on John Schaeffer, proving that light shades
look as well on light-haired

L.ouise LaSorsa surprised everyone and had her long hair cut.
The new style looks very sweet
on Louise, who is becoming
with straight bangs across the
front and the sides curled toward her face .
D espite wind or rain, Becky Ellis
will be in style in her Dacron
blouse with many-colered umbrellas scattered over the white
background .
R ight up there is Ross Bartleson
in a beautifu l grey cashmere

E ven knee-socks come in a variety of shades. Argyles seem to
appeal to Shirl Wagner, Sue
Hoffman and Bert Hendriekson.
S tunning is the word to describe
Marty Molchon in her grey
dress with three-quarter length
sleeyes and a very full skirt.
S apphire blue made an attractive
appearance on Dolores Stanton
at dinner the other night. Her
perfectly matched pull-over
sweater and straight skirt with
three buttons on the side made
Deitz look* outstanding.
E very co-ed likes winter white
and Mary O'Braitis is no exception . Her very attractive
wool dress has a V-neck, threeq uarter length sleeves and
wide black belt topping a
straight skirt , making it a
very pretty picture.
D eep coral, alm ost rose , made a

Bloomsburg Writers Series:
KATHERIN E LITTLE BAKELESS
The Waterburg, Connecticut Sunday Republican commented on
Katherine Little Bakeless' newest book entitled In the Big- Time that,
"you can't brush the silver-grey dust from the blue jacket of this book.
It' s pure star dust. "
Star dust, as everybody knows, is the stuff that gets into the mind's
eye of nearly all young aspirants for success in the entertainment world.
Mrs. Bakeless' In the Biff Time unfolds the vivid star dust stories of fourteen of the biggest "big-time" entertainers, including such famous personages as Fred Astaire, Burl Ives, Hildegarde, and Marian Anderson.
Early in her own life Katherine Little Bakeless felt the magic of the
star dust for, at six, she was already on her way to a long and talented
career as a pianist. Bloomsburg is proud to acclaim that it was here
where she was born and began to study piano. She was the daughter of
the late President Judge Robert and Mrs. Little, whose Mayflower
ancestry traced back through the famous John Alden-Priscilla Mullens
marriage. She received her diploma and music certificate from the
Bloomsburg State Normal School, where she met her future husband ,
Colunel John Bakeless, soldier, scholar, and writer.
After graduation , she entered Peabody Conservatory in Baltimore
where she studied under Immanuel Wad, a pupil of the Viennese teacher
Leschetizsky, who had taught Paderewski. In 1920, she married Colonel
Bakeless and moved to Cambridge, Massachusetts, where she studied
under Heinrich Gebhard, at the same time teaching music at Belmont
Hill School.
Six years later, she studied in New York City under Bruce Simonds,
now Dean of the Yale School of Music. Mrs. Bakeless spent several
summer in Europe, where she studied under the great teachers, Ber t e
Jahn-Beer and Tobias Mathley. During these years, she associated with
well-known musicians ana music lovers. Instead of continuing with
piano, she felt that she could do more to encourage appreciation of
music, so she turned to writing about musicians and other entertainers.
Her efforts resulted in the publication of five highly entertaining and
informative books.
Her first book, published in 1940, was Story-Lives of Great Composers. In this book she included lively biographical sketches of nineteen
composers from the modern Stravinsky back to Scarlotti . This, like her
succeeding books, was written in an easy conversational style and provides good background material for the music lover.
Her other books, The Birth of the Nations, The Battle Hymn of the
Republic Story , and Story-Lives of Great American Composers, have
become exceedingly popular and are found in most libraries over the
United States.
In fact, on one of their many trips to various parts of the United
Stat es, the talented couple, Mr. and Mrs. Bakeless, made a game of
checking libraries in many towns to see which of the two had the more
books in each. Mrs. Bakeless usually won in public libraries, but Mr.
Bakeless won hands down in university libraries, mainly because of his
scholarly articles.
Colonel and Mrs. Bakeless now reside on a farm near New Haven,
Connecticut, where the talented authoress devotes her time to gardening , writing, music, and the raising of Kerry Blue dogs.
Behind Closed Doors
by Ken Weir
Tomorrow we begin another
break from the routine life of college. This holiday won't be meaning post office j obs, and stacks of
nicely wrapped gifts, but it will be
another chance for the hometowners to judge Bloomsburg by
the way we dress, by our new attitud es and the way we cuss and
discuss controversial topics with
them. The kind of language we
use and the table manners we exhibit are all labeled as "th at' s the
way they must act at Bloomsburg." All this should be something to seriously consider when
we pack our bags to run home for
a weekend or one of the larger
vacations. Remembering that a
college is only as good as its student body would be something to
concern us in '55.
Some members of College Council weren't t oo h appy abou t the
lack of enthusiasm on the part ot
the student body concerning the
Max Kaminsky Jazz Concert.
Could the problem be a lack of
good salesmanship on the part of
the Social Recs? It seems to me
that if some of us spend several
semesters in sales classes, we
should be able to put across some
pretty extensive promotion campaigns—if we really wanted to!
We all talk about the things we
would like to see happen around
here, but we must admit that
there's no substitute for hard
work!!
College Council held its last
meeting of '54, with the Yule log
ablaze , at the home of Dr. and
Mrs. North. It was a nice evening
for us for it had many light moments, but underneath the good
time we had , there was a serious
tone ; for we knew that we were
the last Council to be entertained
by the Norths—the Doctor was retiring and we were going to miss
an old friend. So, good luck, Dean.

retirement be as satisfying as the

Profile of the
Week
B.S.T.C. has lost an excellent
studen t . Lynda has lost her wonderful "roomie," and the Maroon
and Gold has lost a witty columnist. For the present, at least ,
because of ill health, Corrine Pen tecost has been foced to give up
her home at the "Friendly College
on the Hill."
Corrine will be solely missed on
our campus by everyone, but especially by the class of '58 which
she has served most industriously
for two years—this year as treasurer and her freshman year as
vice-president.
Her abilities in the field of
j ournalism have been displayed
most adequately through her capable assistance on the Obiter
st aff for t hi s year and t he Maroon
and Gold for the past two years.
In addition , Corrine has been
busy as a member of the Mixed
Chorus, the Bloomsburg Players,
and the C.G.A. Awards Committee. Last year, as female representative of her class in the annual "Battle of the Clases, " she
easily established her reputation
for interest in current events. This
variety of extra-curricular activities, however, has never interfered with a high academic standing
in her field of Elementary Education for she has managed to remain on the much-coveted Dean 's
List .
One would suppose that with
such a variety of activities there
would be little or no time remaining to be spent on any other
"extras," but not so with Corrine
who manages to spend a great
deal of time on her very favorite
of pastimes—reading.
Along this same line of literary
interest, it is not unusual to note
that writing is a special talent for

Fa ns On Home Floor Set by 109 Total
The Bloomsburg Huskies made
their first appearance at Centennial Gymnasium since the holidays
a joyous one by downing the Lock
Haven Teachers five , 84 to 59, on
last Wednesday evening. The
Huskies went ahead early in the
fi rst period, and never suffered a
serious thriat by the Bald Eagles.
The charges of coach Harold
Sh elly were out in front 41-23 at
half time, and the Eagles never
moved closer than 15 points the
rest of the game.
No less than four of the lads
fro m College Hill were in the double figure column . Keith Weiser
led the attack with 16 points, followed closely by Len Kozick with
15. Fred Betz, the stalwart Husky
guard, added 14 points to the
Husky cause, and Charlie (Skip)
Skiptun as added 10 more .
Wednesday night's win m akes
it four victories against one defeat
for the 1955 edition of the Huskies. The Bald Eagles, however,
finding it tough to get into the
win column this year, as Wednesday night's setback was their
fourth straight loss this season.
Two of the B.S.T.C. wins are
STC loop decisions.
Bald Eagle forward, Gerald
Terrate , was high scorer for both
teams with 22 points. He is an excellent, set-shot artist , and is the
outstanding player of Coach Darre] Black's cagers.

The charges of Coach Harold
Shelly broke an all-time scoring
record for Bloomsburg basketball
teams by winning over Cheyney
Teachers by an almost unbelievable 109-102 tally, at the Cheyney
gym.
It was the first post-holiday effort for the Huskies, and also
their first league victory, as opposed to a lone defeat handed
them by the defending champions,
Millersville.
It was necessary for the Lads
from College Hill to have their
shooting eyes peeled for a record
as they met one of the best Cheyney teams in the history of the
Chester County College. No less
than six of the Huskies hit the
double figure column in pouring in
their 109 points.
Cheyney was paced by two of
the best rebounders in the Teacher loop, Casper Lonesome at 6'5"
and Bones Parker at 6'4". Parker
hit the nets to the tune of 39
points, the most scored against a
Shelly-coached Husky five since
Vince Leta. the Lycoming great,
turned in 46 points three years
ago.
The Huskies got more than
their share of rebounds, courtesy
of Big Bob Evans, the Coal Township Junior, who snared 23 loose
balls from the Cheyney boards.
Evans also chipped in with 17
points, and at the same time played the f u ll 40 minu te s.
High scoring honors for the
Huskies went to Captain Freddy
Betz, the team's only senior. Betz
racked-up 24 big ones and at the
same time pulled the "iron man "
stunt by going the full forty minutes.
The hottest Husky hand of the
evening, was that belonging to
Keit h Weiser, the Kane sharpshooter. Keith made 22 points for
the Husky cause, but was forced
to see limited duty because of an
upset stomach . In th e fi rst nine
minutes of the game, Weiser had
taken eight shots and made just
eigh t b askets.
Big Len Koziak hit the cords
for twelve, but it must be noted
that Kozick had four fouls charged to him in the first half. With
these hanging over him, Kozick
was forced to play a much more
conservative brand of ball than is
his custom.
A big surprise for Coach Shelly
came when Jim Gustav, a promising Plains frosh, replaced Kozick
and hit five buckets for ten shots.
This was Gustav's first test under
fire in a varsity contest and his
play was that of an accomplished
veteran .
The versatile Mo Morson celebrated in the record-breaking evening by hitting the hoops for 18
points. Morson is now fourth in
the Husky scoring derby, behind
Betz, Weiser, and Kozick, and has
been moving right along considering he missed over a month of
basketball practice because of
football .

Husk y Wrestlers
With New Spirit
Centennial gym saw its first
wrestling match since pre-war
days as Bloom played host to
Millersville Teachers on January
8. The winter sport was received
with much enthusiasm by the students and faculty who had many
thrills and saw a few spills during
the evening, which end ed with the
crowd on its feet and a Millersville wrestler on his back.
Facing a team with two meets
behind them and many years experience in mat circles, the Huskie grapplers showed fine spirit
and potentiality in their 22-10 defe at . Handicapped from the start
by the illness of their 123-pound
representative, they entered the
meet trailing 5-0 because of a forfeit in that weight class.
In the first match Kenny Lynn
couldn't get started against his
wiry Lancaster County opponent
and lost a close dicision. Ed
Romesburg, the Marauder grappler, kept Ly nn's feet tied preventing him from using his speed
to advantage .
The excitement ^rew as the 137pounders, Bill Troiani of Bloom
and Larry Bahn, started tussling.
The boys were evenly matched,
but Bahn eked out a close decision.
Captain Tom Welliver gave the
Yohemen their first points as he
displayed amazing speed, power,
and most important, know-how,
in pinning his opponent, George
O'Conner . It took "Red" five minutes and twenty-two seconds to do
the trick and give the home fans
something to cheer about.
Millersville increased their lead
to 16-5 as Bill Fisher pinned
Bloom's Abenmoah in two minutes
and thirty-two seconds.
Another freshman , Bob Asby,
gave a good account of himself
against Bob Brown, 1951 S.T.C.
167-pound class champion . Bob
lost a tough 4-3 verdict.
In the semi-windup Don "Porky " Wise nearly pinned Warren
Goff of the visitors in the opening
minut es, but the slippery tutor escaped and went on to win the contest on points.
It was big Harry Hughes who
gave the fans something to talk
about for the remainder of the
evening. As soon as the whistle
blew "the Willi amsport Wonder "
went about the task of pinning his
fellow giant in the amazing time
of one minute and four seconds.
When he grabbed Don Weaver of
Millersville the crowd rose to its
f eet , cheering for the pin, whi ch
Harry so modestly and obligingly
gave them .
The freshmen-studded team did
a fine job and you can be sure
that the Bloomsburg Matmen will
be a constant threat to all they
meet in the coming meets.
Huskies Drop Fir st
Game of Season in
Pre -Xmas Contest
The previously unbeaten charges of Coach Harold Shelly took
their first defeat of the current
season as they dropped their initial league tilt to the perennial
power of the teacher conference,
the Millersville Marauders, by an
80-67 count.
Coach Shelly felt, however, that
the 13-point gap didn 't tell the
whole story, because the Huskies
held as high as a 9-point advantage in the second half . But the
inability of the locals to hit from
the field in the last 10 minutes
made the difference as the Huskies posted only fouls in the final
5 minutes.
Although the Huskies took a
19-18 lead after the first 10 minutes of play, the half-time score
read Millersville 40, Bloomsburg
37. But the locals came back in
the first 10 minutes of the second
half to play their best ball of the
campaign. With 11 minutes of the
second half remaining, the Lads
from College Hill had a 9-point
'lead . 4 minutes later, the score
was knotted at 67-all.
The final 5 minutes saw the
Marauders gamer 13 points by
virtue of their 6'5" tap-in artist ,
Dick Parker, who is able to go
well above the rim of the basket.
Parker netted 22 points for his
team's cause,
Bloom captain Freddy Betz outscored the Millersville all-stater,
Billy Werkhiser, by 3 points. Betz
had his best evening as a Huskie
player In scoring 26 points. Werkhiser 's 23 points were matched by
the "Dallas Dandy," Len Kozick.
SPORTS SCUTTLEBUTT
by BILL BITNER
Arnie Garinger, Great Supporter ~
Of Bloom Teams . . .
Just as six senior football heroes
will be lost to graduation , such
will be the fate of one of the most
enthusiastic supporters of Husky
athletics in recent years, Arnie
Garinger.
Arnie , who has managed Bloom
grid aggregations for the past
four years, h ails f rom Harvey 's
Lake where he attended Lake
Township High School. While at
Lake Township, Arnie starred in
basketball and baseball for four
y ears and was considered by many
sports fans of that area to be one
of the Raiders ' all-time greats.
The Raiders were down in one
baseball game by a 31-0 count,
when Arnie switched from his
familiar shortstop position to
handle the mound chores for the
vacation-resort nine . In the next
two fr ames, he set the opposition
down with only two runs, which
was just another example of his
versatility in sports. Final score,
32-0
Arnie continued his athletic
prowess at the Friendly College
by captaining the undefeated
Saints in the intramural basketball championship last winter and
will follow suit this year with the
pre-season league favorites . Arnie
also played third base for the
"Big Boys?" who were runnersup in the softball loop last spring.
Aside from athletics, Arnie h as
found time to serve the college
community in many other capacities, some of the more important
being President of the Senior
Class, Columnist for the Maroon
& Gold for two years, a member
of the Varsity Club and has been
M.C. for various fun-loving functions during his college career .
When Arnie was asked the
question who was the best Husky
football player he has seen perform on the Hill, he said he would
rather pick 11 best, one f or each
position : Ends—Russ Verhousky
'53 and Bob Cumens '55; Tackles
—Russ Looker '52 and Harry
Hughes '57; Guards—Ardell Zeigenfuse '53 and Tom Persing '55;
Center—Tom Shukis '52; BacksDave Linkehorst, Barney Osevala,
Tom Specht and "Daddy " Lang—
the backfield of the championship
'51 team. Arnie went on to explain
that he felt that Tom Higgins was
the best manager he has ever seen
on the Hill , and this includes such
names as Eddie Cunfer and Jack
Koch, along with many others . As
far as the greatest thrill he has
experienced, Arnie went along
with many of the other seniors
and picked the game in which
Bloom beat West Chester in 1951
by a 16-7 count.
After graduation , Arnie would
like to teach and get married ,
that is providing Uncle Sam does
not have any other ideas on the
subj ect. WRESTLING WELL
RECEIVED . . . Unfortunately,
for this desk, we missed the opening of the newly inaugurated sport
on the winter athletic itinerary
because of the basketball game at
Cheyney the same night. When
we came home from that recordbreaking trip (Huskies set an alltime scoring mark by scoring 109
points), we were swamped by enthusiastic "wrestling" fans, niany
of whom saw their first match,
more than willing to relate the
happenings of the previous evening at Centennial Gyrn. Explanations and excuses for the team's
inability to post a win over the
strong Millersville grapplers were
as plentiful as the points Had been
the night before at Cheyney. This
change of heart from the usually
satirical remarks, which we ar e
accustomed to when a Bloom team
goes down*, was a pleasant change.
The last time we can recall such
enthusiasm was this past fall
when the Huskies blasted Wilkes
and Kings on successive weekends,
and then only because the team
played near-perfect ball . But this
was different—we didn't win, and
still there were many who were
willing to pick up the banner and
make such remarks as, "I believe
we'd take them if we'd wrestle
them a"gain." "You should have
seen Harry pin that guy..." "For
a green team they really ..." "Red
Welliver really knows his wrestling, " and many , many others .
For this tremendous success,
and the great showing the boys
m ade, we have only to thank the
time-tested House of Yohe-Hoeh,
in their final masterpiece as a
team. The man who breathed life
into, and promoted wrestling to
being a maj or sport was, of
course , John Hoch. To John Hoch,
the Athletic Director, the team is
indebted for the promotion of a
near-capacity house and a huge
step in the direction of a representative team with a representative
collegi at e sched u le. To Jack Yohe,
t he coach , the team came a long
way. Such performers as Bob As-*
by, who lost a tough match to a
State champ in the opening meet,
are typical examples of the development of boys who did little or
no wrestling in high school . Coach
Jack Yohe took over the reins on
December 1, with twelve wrestlers. The first practice after the
Millersville Meet saw the wouldbe wrestlers still coming through
the doors of the first time, and the
ranks more than doubled. But
what is more important , the doors
aren't closed now, and probably
never will be as long as Jack Yohe
is at the helm. So anyone who
feels they can beat a person who
is wrestling in their weight class,
remember the mat is always out.
It may not say welcome on it , but
the thought is there.

What's Your Opinion?
Max Kaminsky and his "Dixieland All-Stars" are presenting a jazz
concert February 1st—-an opportunity for the students to hear actual
Dixieland jazz other than from just a record . What do you think of it ?
Are you for it?
Nancy Klotz: "For those who enjoy j azz, it's a good idea. If we
have a good turn-out , It might start things happenings at B.S.T.C.
George Derk : "There is no harm in trying a new social event such
as this. Perhaps if we were to take an attitude such as this more often,
we could eventually initiate a social program that the student body has
been craving."
Judy Stephen : "A good idea—we need something more than a
record dance or a formal at B.S.T.C. We need a variety of entertainment. Many people don't understand j azz, and by going to this concert,
it may help them to understand it much better. Jazz is really a big
thing !"
Mary Hoffecker : "Outside of the fact that it requires work and
a lot of organization , I'm all for it . At this moment, the students are
not too responsive. It is not a money—making idea—ju st a chance for
the kids to go to a concert and hear Dixieland j azz, Let's face it!, Jazz
is pretty well-oriented, and is here to stay."

1955! When we were freshmen, way back when, the Class of 1955
seemed so far away, but, unbelievable as it is, in about one more day,
we'll be finished with classes at B.S.T.C. for good. That's a terrible way
to start a column. I feel bad now.
The quintet went apartment-hunting yesterday. What a riot! It paid
off though—a five-room job with all conveniences and a very nice landlady. Naturally, because of the background, Punch will cook. Bob is the
business man, Pope the washer woman, and Derk the cleanup committee. My Job ? I keep things dirty enough so George dosen't feel that he's
not doing his part. So, if Corinne doesn't hurry back, every M & G may
carry a column of "The Fraternity Five Off Campus". No, Oggy, th a t
isn't a sequel to "The Hardy Boys" Series.
Talking about Miss C-Notes. She's all sick with malnutrition. (No
relation to Mai Smith.) I don 't know if that's grounds for suing the
state, but it might be worth a try.
Wait until they tear the lobby up too; then the chow line will form
on long porch and down 2nd Street. We'll have the only college in the
world where the girls go to dinner in snowsuits.
. Oh my, here's a big boo-boo! American Government class, Dr. Herre
at the helm. Question : Which was the last of the original 13 colonies to
ratify the constitution ? Answer, by one fellow named Derk in loud
voice: "Arizona. " Only the length of the U.S., and over a hundred years
off . My roommate!
Since I began writing this a few days ago, I've learned that Corinne
won't be back to school at all second semester. Certainly we'll miss her
and her column . She's one of the more intelligent people I've met in the
last 21 years.
After hearing what Bill Bitner's column is about this week, I should
like to say a few .thousand words in his hehalf . There's no doubt that B.
Bitner has the finest column of any type anywhere in the world. His
material is chosen with the utmost care and finesse . His choice of words,
fabulous! I feel that it is only fair to the reading public to say that even
though it would mean skipping Under Currents, read Sports Scuttlebutt
this issue.
Never has a more persuasive report been given than the report in
Science class by Bill Ellinger on High Fidelity. He gave "Hi-Fi" such a
buildup that Holley Smith left the class at 2:00^p.m. and by 2:30 had
purchased one of said sets. R.C.A. is looking for peoplelike you, Bill.
I've seen people late for classes already, but Angus is the only guy
I've seen stumble* in Vz hour late. Maybe he fell asleep in the bathtub.
Again ? ? ?
I didn 't see the wrestling matches last week, but everyone seemed
to enj oy them lots. Capt . Welliver took right up where he left off in high
school, and Harry Hughes didn 't take too much time to dispose of their
big fellow. When we're at f u ll str ength , we'll do o.k. for our first season.
Maybe we're not a physical education school, but there certainly is
a lot of enthusiasm for sports. Look at the intramural league— 16 teams
with at least 7 fellows on a team and that's well over 100 players in Centennial on Monday nights. Not bad for business students
Charlie Pope has been sick for two days and hasn't received one
single get-well card and he's been feeling quite low. So the next time
you see Charles on the street, mention how nice it is to see him up and
around and ask him how h e's feeling. He'll appreciate it!
Student teachers must not be having any fun this year. I never hear
any of the little funnies the children come off with like one with Mutt
Marr 's little student amazed him. Why did the calf kick her mother in
the belly ? To hear the Big Ma Moo. Any little stories will be appreciated, but I suppose soon I'D. be hearing some first-hand and they won't
seem too humorous then.
Table service is coming along nicely. In fact, nearly everyone gets
a seat sometimes. I hope you didn't forget the Honor Assembly this morning. Fifteen folks will be leaving for good, and I thi n k we owe th em to
go and watch them graduate . Some of you may never see another, graduate.
Well , it' s time for the basketball game so I'll stop for this time.
You won't be seeing me around the campus next semester (stop smiling,
Yohe) but I'll try to send up a few words to let you know how a bachelor 's life goes and how student teaching is coming along.
It's been great to be associated with people like those who inhabit
i
B.S.T.C.

Return to Campus To Visit B.S.T.C.
Capt ain E. H. Utley, the Marine
On February 14th Corps
Officer Procurement Officer ,
The Mobile Blood Unit from
Wilkes Barre will once again appear on the campus of Bloomsburg
Stat e Teachers College. For the
entire day of February 14 the unit
will be ready to serve the student s, faculty, and staff of the
college. The location of the unit
is not yet Known because of extensive renovations, but it will be
announced as soon as possible.
During the past four years,
Bloomsburg State Teachers College has donated 616 pints of
blood. 187 pints were given in one
year , the best ever for the college
program.
Although this proj ect is definitely a student function, the faculty and staff are urged to also
rlnnatp.
The stipulations tor giving blood
are that the student wno is under
twenty-one years of age may give
blood providing they have a re
lease signed by their parents.
Those students who are over
twenty-one may donate of their
own accord .
B.S.T.C. has always done a tremendous j ob of giving blood. It is
a good experience for future teachers because they will be called
upon to do the same j ob when they
are out of college.
Dr. Paul Wagner, who is the faculty sponsor of the bloodmobile,
wants no credit for the work that
has been done. He gives it all to
the student committee who have
worked hard during the past years
to get donors and this year seems
to be no exception. This committee is headed this year by Alberta
Semanski, with the folowing students as members: Bob Aurand,
Joan Christie, Jan Feren ce, Ruth
Hippensteel, Mary Hoffecker, Ann
Jenkins, Diann Jones, Joe Keefer,

spaghetti dinner menu was served.
A short devotion period was held ,
followed by an interesting movie,
"Answer for Anne " showing the
pathetic plight of displaced persons who would like to become
American citizens and the answer
Anne found to her problem told
the story most eloquently. A

To See Yourself
This editorial has beea prepared at the request of, and with the
assistance of, a group of students. The text of this article represents
the views of that group, and not those of any one individual.
Our purpose in writing this editorial is not the usual one. We are
not attempting to arouse anyone to some unknown situation , for no
unknown situation exists. Nor are we trying to reveal any deep secret,
for there is no secret to reveal. The tragic fact is that the subject of
this article is so well known to the student body, it has become so
commonplace, so accepted a routine, that an attempt to reveal anything
would be a foolish waste of time. We would be telling you only what
you already know.
It is with this thought in mind that we can only attempt to view
and discuss the problem of cheating obj ectively and openly.
Firs t of all , were the problem of cheating on a small enough scale,
and sufficiently confined , group pressure would eventually wipe it out.
But, it has reached such a point of flagrancy that if groujp pressure were
to wipe out anything, it would be honesty, not cheating. Apparently—
obviously—this has already happened.
There is no honor system, as such, at Bloomsburg. Now, a generalization as blunt as this demands further explanation, so let us consider
what an honor system represents. Speaking obj ectively, one might define
the ideal honor system as an unwritten, unspoken code of ethics, to
tthich every individual within a given group or situation must conform,
or face the penalties of group pressure and sentiment. There are honor
systems everywhere, even among thieves. We are concerned only with
the college honor system. More specifically, we are concerned only with
the problem of open and obvious cheating during tests and examinations,
and it is apparent and obvious.
It is here that the question arises: WHY ? There are many reasons
why a person might turn to cheating. We will attempt to relate only
the more common cheaters in general can be divided into three major
groups:
Fir st , there is the person who feels that cheating is an absolute
necessity. They would have themelves believe that it represents their
only means of survival. They have become so dependent on cheating as
a means of false reasurrance that, without it, they would foe lost.
Second, there are those unfortunates who feel that "since everyone
else cheats," they too must cheat, in order to compete for their grades.
It is tragic when persons who could make their grades honestly, f eel
that they have to turn to cheating as a means of survival. Perhaps,
there is an ironic justification here.
Third, there are those who are j ust too lazy to apply themselves.
There are few who can honestly admit to themselves not having
cheated during an examination. There are very few who can admit that
they have not actually witnessed it. Certainly, there is no one who is not
f amiliar with at least one method.
Among the many ways of cheating in examinations, here are some
of the most common:
The Copier: Copying is probably the easiest way out, but, of course,
the copier runs the risk of choosing incorrect answers as his reference.
It is hardly the method of a continuous cheater.
The Open Book : This method consists merely of opening a conveniently placed textbook whenever the opportunity presents itself. Although the material is correct, the risk o£ being caugh t is great, espe cially if the instructor happens to be watching.
The Pony : This "miniature " outline is certainly the most preferable
and widely used of the three mentioned. The well organized, systematically arranged pony is as informative as the textbook.1 It is usually
designed to be inconspicuous in size (in order to fit nee tly into the palm
of the hand).
Unfortunately, this editorial will not be read until most of the final
exams have been taken. Perhaps it would have made no difference, anyway. Actually, this is of little consequence since, as we stated before,
our purpose is not to arouse. We are not engaged in a crusade. You know
whether or not you are guilty. If you can honestly admit to yourself that
you are not a guilty party, then your self-satisfaction should be reward
enough. If , howev er , you cannot make this admission, if you have ?>een
tempted to look a little more carefully at yourself , then this article has
achieved its purpose.
We conclude with four memorable lines from the pen of Robert
Burns, expressing a wish that is universal. . .
"I would such gift the Giver give me
To see myself as others see me;
It would from many a blunder free me,
And many a foolish notion."

BY TUC K Y
T his Christmas seems to have
brought a lot of new clothes to
our many BSTC'ers from a
Santa Claus, in one f or m or
another.
H ighlighting the male wardrobe
is Chuck Casper's lime-green
sweater, a nice contrast with
Chu ck's black hair.
E my Park looked very sweet in
an avacado-green and navyblue tweed skirt with an avacado belt and blouse to match.
W ith her black felt skirt , Jo
Graeber chose to wear a soft
pi nk scoop-necked j ersey. A
very pretty combination, adding black heels with a rose bud
on each shoe.
E xquisite is the word to describe
Jo Atkinson 's zebra striped
suit consisting of a straight
black skirt and striped bolero
j acket .
L ight blue and beige sweaters
look very nice on John Schaeffer, proving that light shades
look as well on light-haired
fellows as well as dark .
L.ouise LaSorsa surprised everyone and had her long hair cut.
The new style looks very sweet
on Louise, who is becoming
with straight bangs across the
front and the sides curled toward her face .
D espite wind or rain, Becky Ellis
will be in style in her Dacron
blouse with many-colered umbrellas scattered over the white
background .
R ight up there is Ross Bartleson
in a beautifu l grey cashmere
sweater.
E ven knee-socks come in a variety of shades. Argyles seem to
appeal to Shirl Wagner, Sue
Hoffman and Bert Hendriekson.
S tunning is the word to describe
Marty Molchon in her grey
dress with three-quarter length
sleeyes and a very full skirt.
S apphire blue made an attractive
appearance on Dolores Stanton
at dinner the other night. Her
perfectly matched pull-over
sweater and straight skirt with
three buttons on the side made
Deitz look* outstanding.
E very co-ed likes winter white
and Mary O'Braitis is no exception . Her very attractive
wool dress has a V-neck, threeq uarter length sleeves and
wide black belt topping a
straight skirt , making it a
very pretty picture.
D eep coral, alm ost rose , made a
lovely combination for Janet
Plummer. The straight skirt
gave one the impression of
pleats all around.
S tripes alway s look fresh , especially on Judy Stevens who's
beige and brown skirt of two
wide horizontal stripes went
especially well with her brown
sweater and belt of the same
color.
T ops among everyday school
clot h es is Bobbi R oa dside 's
combination of a pink cardigan
sweater, straight dark brown
skirt and knee-socks to match
the shade of pink in her sweater . Very nice on Bobbi, who
always looks so neat.
U also saw a medium shade of
pink on Joan Qhristie at dinner . Her gorgeous sweater has
a scoop-neck with an angora
band all around , decorated
with tiny pearls .
D on McLean made a handsome
appearance in a charcoal suit
with a plaid tie to add to its
attractiveness. (It wasn't his
clan tho '),
E ver popular is a plaid pleated
skirt, even more when it has a
weskit to match. Such is Carole Anderson's outfit of red
and green plaid.
N o, George, Derk, you don't have
to wear an orange shirt and
red and white striped tie to
get your name in my column.
Just look as nice as you always do, especially in your
light grey suit which becomes
you so well.
T ime to say good-bye. I hope you
enjoy your semester break and
return with many new additions to your already stunning
wardrobes.

Bloomsburg Writers Series:
KATHERIN E LITTLE BAKELESS
The Waterburg, Connecticut Sunday Republican commented on
Katherine Little Bakeless' newest book entitled In the Big- Time that,
"you can't brush the silver-grey dust from the blue jacket of this book.
It' s pure star dust. "
Star dust, as everybody knows, is the stuff that gets into the mind's
eye of nearly all young aspirants for success in the entertainment world.
Mrs. Bakeless' In the Biff Time unfolds the vivid star dust stories of fourteen of the biggest "big-time" entertainers, including such famous personages as Fred Astaire, Burl Ives, Hildegarde, and Marian Anderson.
Early in her own life Katherine Little Bakeless felt the magic of the
star dust for, at six, she was already on her way to a long and talented
career as a pianist. Bloomsburg is proud to acclaim that it was here
where she was born and began to study piano. She was the daughter of
the late President Judge Robert and Mrs. Little, whose Mayflower
ancestry traced back through the famous John Alden-Priscilla Mullens
marriage. She received her diploma and music certificate from the
Bloomsburg State Normal School, where she met her future husband ,
Colunel John Bakeless, soldier, scholar, and writer.
After graduation , she entered Peabody Conservatory in Baltimore
where she studied under Immanuel Wad, a pupil of the Viennese teacher
Leschetizsky, who had taught Paderewski. In 1920, she married Colonel
Bakeless and moved to Cambridge, Massachusetts, where she studied
under Heinrich Gebhard, at the same time teaching music at Belmont
Hill School.
Six years later, she studied in New York City under Bruce Simonds,
now Dean of the Yale School of Music. Mrs. Bakeless spent several
summer in Europe, where she studied under the great teachers, Ber t e
Jahn-Beer and Tobias Mathley. During these years, she associated with
well-known musicians ana music lovers. Instead of continuing with
piano, she felt that she could do more to encourage appreciation of
music, so she turned to writing about musicians and other entertainers.
Her efforts resulted in the publication of five highly entertaining and
informative books.
Her first book, published in 1940, was Story-Lives of Great Composers. In this book she included lively biographical sketches of nineteen
composers from the modern Stravinsky back to Scarlotti . This, like her
succeeding books, was written in an easy conversational style and provides good background material for the music lover.
Her other books, The Birth of the Nations, The Battle Hymn of the
Republic Story , and Story-Lives of Great American Composers, have
become exceedingly popular and are found in most libraries over the
United States.
In fact, on one of their many trips to various parts of the United
Stat es, the talented couple, Mr. and Mrs. Bakeless, made a game of
checking libraries in many towns to see which of the two had the more
books in each. Mrs. Bakeless usually won in public libraries, but Mr.
Bakeless won hands down in university libraries, mainly because of his
scholarly articles.
Colonel and Mrs. Bakeless now reside on a farm near New Haven,
Connecticut, where the talented authoress devotes her time to gardening , writing, music, and the raising of Kerry Blue dogs.
Behind Closed Doors
by Ken Weir
Tomorrow we begin another
break from the routine life of college. This holiday won't be meaning post office j obs, and stacks of
nicely wrapped gifts, but it will be
another chance for the hometowners to judge Bloomsburg by
the way we dress, by our new attitud es and the way we cuss and
discuss controversial topics with
them. The kind of language we
use and the table manners we exhibit are all labeled as "th at' s the
way they must act at Bloomsburg." All this should be something to seriously consider when
we pack our bags to run home for
a weekend or one of the larger
vacations. Remembering that a
college is only as good as its student body would be something to
concern us in '55.
Some members of College Council weren't t oo h appy abou t the
lack of enthusiasm on the part ot
the student body concerning the
Max Kaminsky Jazz Concert.
Could the problem be a lack of
good salesmanship on the part of
the Social Recs? It seems to me
that if some of us spend several
semesters in sales classes, we
should be able to put across some
pretty extensive promotion campaigns—if we really wanted to!
We all talk about the things we
would like to see happen around
here, but we must admit that
there's no substitute for hard
work!!
College Council held its last
meeting of '54, with the Yule log
ablaze , at the home of Dr. and
Mrs. North. It was a nice evening
for us for it had many light moments, but underneath the good
time we had , there was a serious
tone ; for we knew that we were
the last Council to be entertained
by the Norths—the Doctor was retiring and we were going to miss
an old friend. So, good luck, Dean.

retirement be as satisfying as the

Profile of the
Week
B.S.T.C. has lost an excellent
studen t . Lynda has lost her wonderful "roomie," and the Maroon
and Gold has lost a witty columnist. For the present, at least ,
because of ill health, Corrine Pen tecost has been foced to give up
her home at the "Friendly College
on the Hill."
Corrine will be solely missed on
our campus by everyone, but especially by the class of '58 which
she has served most industriously
for two years—this year as treasurer and her freshman year as
vice-president.
Her abilities in the field of
j ournalism have been displayed
most adequately through her capable assistance on the Obiter
st aff for t hi s year and t he Maroon
and Gold for the past two years.
In addition , Corrine has been
busy as a member of the Mixed
Chorus, the Bloomsburg Players,
and the C.G.A. Awards Committee. Last year, as female representative of her class in the annual "Battle of the Clases, " she
easily established her reputation
for interest in current events. This
variety of extra-curricular activities, however, has never interfered with a high academic standing
in her field of Elementary Education for she has managed to remain on the much-coveted Dean 's
List .
One would suppose that with
such a variety of activities there
would be little or no time remaining to be spent on any other
"extras," but not so with Corrine
who manages to spend a great
deal of time on her very favorite
of pastimes—reading.
Along this same line of literary
interest, it is not unusual to note
that writing is a special talent for
Corrine. Not only is she an accomplished prose artist, but she
writes poetry as well. Back in
high school in Honesdale, Pa., the
students presented many plays
and skits which she had written
for them .
Music is another particular interest of Corrine 's. She is an avid
collector of all types of records
and she enjoy s playing the piano
or strumming on a "uke."
Her newest field of endeavor
has been that of knitting argylo
socks—tho result of having a
roommate who knits.
For our versatile CorrJne to
leave B.S.T.C. without some note
of recognition would be a mistake.
The Profile of tho Week is our
way of showing the deep appreciation we feel for Corrine. Ma y
the future bring good luck and
good health.

Bald Eagle forward, Gerald

teams with 22 points. He is an excellent, set-shot artist , and is the
outstanding player of Coach Darre] Black's cagers.

The charges of Coach Harold
Shelly broke an all-time scoring
record for Bloomsburg basketball
teams by winning over Cheyney
Teachers by an almost unbelievable 109-102 tally, at the Cheyney
gym.
It was the first post-holiday effort for the Huskies, and also
their first league victory, as opposed to a lone defeat handed
them by the defending champions,
Millersville.
It was necessary for the Lads
from College Hill to have their
shooting eyes peeled for a record
as they met one of the best Cheyney teams in the history of the
Chester County College. No less
than six of the Huskies hit the
double figure column in pouring in
their 109 points.
Cheyney was paced by two of
the best rebounders in the Teacher loop, Casper Lonesome at 6'5"
and Bones Parker at 6'4". Parker
hit the nets to the tune of 39
points, the most scored against a
Shelly-coached Husky five since
Vince Leta. the Lycoming great,
turned in 46 points three years
ago.
The Huskies got more than
their share of rebounds, courtesy
of Big Bob Evans, the Coal Township Junior, who snared 23 loose
balls from the Cheyney boards.
Evans also chipped in with 17
points, and at the same time played the f u ll 40 minu te s.
High scoring honors for the
Huskies went to Captain Freddy
Betz, the team's only senior. Betz
racked-up 24 big ones and at the
same time pulled the "iron man "
stunt by going the full forty minutes.
The hottest Husky hand of the
evening, was that belonging to
Keit h Weiser, the Kane sharpshooter. Keith made 22 points for
the Husky cause, but was forced
to see limited duty because of an
upset stomach . In th e fi rst nine
minutes of the game, Weiser had
taken eight shots and made just
eigh t b askets.
Big Len Koziak hit the cords
for twelve, but it must be noted
that Kozick had four fouls charged to him in the first half. With
these hanging over him, Kozick
was forced to play a much more
conservative brand of ball than is
his custom.
A big surprise for Coach Shelly
came when Jim Gustav, a promising Plains frosh, replaced Kozick
and hit five buckets for ten shots.
This was Gustav's first test under
fire in a varsity contest and his
play was that of an accomplished
veteran .
The versatile Mo Morson celebrated in the record-breaking evening by hitting the hoops for 18
points. Morson is now fourth in
the Husky scoring derby, behind
Betz, Weiser, and Kozick, and has
been moving right along considering he missed over a month of
basketball practice because of
football .

numbers. "HEARTS OF STONE"
by the Fountaine Sisters. "THE

To those of us who shall be
lucky ( ?) enough to return to the

now for a night of real fun and
listening pleasure. The date for

classroom is Centennial Gymnasium . . . the class period, 8:30

With New Spirit
Centennial gym saw its first
wrestling match since pre-war
days as Bloom played host to
Millersville Teachers on January
8. The winter sport was received
with much enthusiasm by the students and faculty who had many
thrills and saw a few spills during
the evening, which end ed with the
crowd on its feet and a Millersville wrestler on his back.
Facing a team with two meets
behind them and many years experience in mat circles, the Huskie grapplers showed fine spirit
and potentiality in their 22-10 defe at . Handicapped from the start
by the illness of their 123-pound
representative, they entered the
meet trailing 5-0 because of a forfeit in that weight class.
In the first match Kenny Lynn
couldn't get started against his
wiry Lancaster County opponent
and lost a close dicision. Ed
Romesburg, the Marauder grappler, kept Ly nn's feet tied preventing him from using his speed
to advantage .
The excitement ^rew as the 137pounders, Bill Troiani of Bloom
and Larry Bahn, started tussling.
The boys were evenly matched,
but Bahn eked out a close decision.
Captain Tom Welliver gave the
Yohemen their first points as he
displayed amazing speed, power,
and most important, know-how,
in pinning his opponent, George
O'Conner . It took "Red" five minutes and twenty-two seconds to do
the trick and give the home fans
something to cheer about.
Millersville increased their lead
to 16-5 as Bill Fisher pinned
Bloom's Abenmoah in two minutes
and thirty-two seconds.
Another freshman , Bob Asby,
gave a good account of himself
against Bob Brown, 1951 S.T.C.
167-pound class champion . Bob
lost a tough 4-3 verdict.
In the semi-windup Don "Porky " Wise nearly pinned Warren
Goff of the visitors in the opening
minut es, but the slippery tutor escaped and went on to win the contest on points.
It was big Harry Hughes who
gave the fans something to talk
about for the remainder of the
evening. As soon as the whistle
blew "the Willi amsport Wonder "
went about the task of pinning his
fellow giant in the amazing time
of one minute and four seconds.
When he grabbed Don Weaver of
Millersville the crowd rose to its
f eet , cheering for the pin, whi ch
Harry so modestly and obligingly
gave them .
The freshmen-studded team did
a fine job and you can be sure
that the Bloomsburg Matmen will
be a constant threat to all they
meet in the coming meets.
Huskies Drop Fir st
Game of Season in
Pre -Xmas Contest
The previously unbeaten charges of Coach Harold Shelly took
their first defeat of the current
season as they dropped their initial league tilt to the perennial
power of the teacher conference,
the Millersville Marauders, by an
80-67 count.
Coach Shelly felt, however, that
the 13-point gap didn 't tell the
whole story, because the Huskies
held as high as a 9-point advantage in the second half . But the
inability of the locals to hit from
the field in the last 10 minutes
made the difference as the Huskies posted only fouls in the final
5 minutes.
Although the Huskies took a
19-18 lead after the first 10 minutes of play, the half-time score
read Millersville 40, Bloomsburg
37. But the locals came back in
the first 10 minutes of the second
half to play their best ball of the
campaign. With 11 minutes of the
second half remaining, the Lads
from College Hill had a 9-point
'lead . 4 minutes later, the score
was knotted at 67-all.
The final 5 minutes saw the
Marauders gamer 13 points by
virtue of their 6'5" tap-in artist ,
Dick Parker, who is able to go
well above the rim of the basket.
Parker netted 22 points for his
team's cause,
Bloom captain Freddy Betz outscored the Millersville all-stater,
Billy Werkhiser, by 3 points. Betz
had his best evening as a Huskie
player In scoring 26 points. Werkhiser 's 23 points were matched by
the "Dallas Dandy," Len Kozick.
SPORTS SCUTTLEBUTT
by BILL BITNER
Arnie Garinger, Great Supporter ~
Of Bloom Teams . . .
Just as six senior football heroes
will be lost to graduation , such
will be the fate of one of the most
enthusiastic supporters of Husky
athletics in recent years, Arnie
Garinger.
Arnie , who has managed Bloom
grid aggregations for the past
four years, h ails f rom Harvey 's
Lake where he attended Lake
Township High School. While at
Lake Township, Arnie starred in
basketball and baseball for four
y ears and was considered by many
sports fans of that area to be one
of the Raiders ' all-time greats.
The Raiders were down in one
baseball game by a 31-0 count,
when Arnie switched from his
familiar shortstop position to
handle the mound chores for the
vacation-resort nine . In the next
two fr ames, he set the opposition
down with only two runs, which
was just another example of his
versatility in sports. Final score,
32-0
Arnie continued his athletic
prowess at the Friendly College
by captaining the undefeated
Saints in the intramural basketball championship last winter and
will follow suit this year with the
pre-season league favorites . Arnie
also played third base for the
"Big Boys?" who were runnersup in the softball loop last spring.
Aside from athletics, Arnie h as
found time to serve the college
community in many other capacities, some of the more important
being President of the Senior
Class, Columnist for the Maroon
& Gold for two years, a member
of the Varsity Club and has been
M.C. for various fun-loving functions during his college career .
When Arnie was asked the
question who was the best Husky
football player he has seen perform on the Hill, he said he would
rather pick 11 best, one f or each
position : Ends—Russ Verhousky
'53 and Bob Cumens '55; Tackles
—Russ Looker '52 and Harry
Hughes '57; Guards—Ardell Zeigenfuse '53 and Tom Persing '55;
Center—Tom Shukis '52; BacksDave Linkehorst, Barney Osevala,
Tom Specht and "Daddy " Lang—
the backfield of the championship
'51 team. Arnie went on to explain
that he felt that Tom Higgins was
the best manager he has ever seen
on the Hill , and this includes such
names as Eddie Cunfer and Jack
Koch, along with many others . As
far as the greatest thrill he has
experienced, Arnie went along
with many of the other seniors
and picked the game in which
Bloom beat West Chester in 1951
by a 16-7 count.
After graduation , Arnie would
like to teach and get married ,
that is providing Uncle Sam does
not have any other ideas on the
subj ect. WRESTLING WELL
RECEIVED . . . Unfortunately,
for this desk, we missed the opening of the newly inaugurated sport
on the winter athletic itinerary
because of the basketball game at
Cheyney the same night. When
we came home from that recordbreaking trip (Huskies set an alltime scoring mark by scoring 109
points), we were swamped by enthusiastic "wrestling" fans, niany
of whom saw their first match,
more than willing to relate the
happenings of the previous evening at Centennial Gyrn. Explanations and excuses for the team's
inability to post a win over the
strong Millersville grapplers were
as plentiful as the points Had been
the night before at Cheyney. This
change of heart from the usually
satirical remarks, which we ar e
accustomed to when a Bloom team
goes down*, was a pleasant change.
The last time we can recall such
enthusiasm was this past fall
when the Huskies blasted Wilkes
and Kings on successive weekends,
and then only because the team
played near-perfect ball . But this
was different—we didn't win, and
still there were many who were
willing to pick up the banner and
make such remarks as, "I believe
we'd take them if we'd wrestle
them a"gain." "You should have
seen Harry pin that guy..." "For
a green team they really ..." "Red
Welliver really knows his wrestling, " and many , many others .
For this tremendous success,
and the great showing the boys
m ade, we have only to thank the
time-tested House of Yohe-Hoeh,
in their final masterpiece as a
team. The man who breathed life
into, and promoted wrestling to
being a maj or sport was, of
course , John Hoch. To John Hoch,
the Athletic Director, the team is
indebted for the promotion of a
near-capacity house and a huge
step in the direction of a representative team with a representative
collegi at e sched u le. To Jack Yohe,
t he coach , the team came a long
way. Such performers as Bob As-*
by, who lost a tough match to a
State champ in the opening meet,
are typical examples of the development of boys who did little or
no wrestling in high school . Coach
Jack Yohe took over the reins on
December 1, with twelve wrestlers. The first practice after the
Millersville Meet saw the wouldbe wrestlers still coming through
the doors of the first time, and the
ranks more than doubled. But
what is more important , the doors
aren't closed now, and probably
never will be as long as Jack Yohe
is at the helm. So anyone who
feels they can beat a person who
is wrestling in their weight class,
remember the mat is always out.
It may not say welcome on it , but
the thought is there.

What's Your Opinion?
Max Kaminsky and his "Dixieland All-Stars" are presenting a jazz
concert February 1st—-an opportunity for the students to hear actual
Dixieland jazz other than from just a record . What do you think of it ?
Are you for it?
Nancy Klotz: "For those who enjoy j azz, it's a good idea. If we
have a good turn-out , It might start things happenings at B.S.T.C.
George Derk : "There is no harm in trying a new social event such
as this. Perhaps if we were to take an attitude such as this more often,
we could eventually initiate a social program that the student body has
been craving."
Judy Stephen : "A good idea—we need something more than a
record dance or a formal at B.S.T.C. We need a variety of entertainment. Many people don't understand j azz, and by going to this concert,
it may help them to understand it much better. Jazz is really a big
thing !"
Mary Hoffecker : "Outside of the fact that it requires work and
a lot of organization , I'm all for it . At this moment, the students are
not too responsive. It is not a money—making idea—ju st a chance for
the kids to go to a concert and hear Dixieland j azz, Let's face it!, Jazz
is pretty well-oriented, and is here to stay."

1955! When we were freshmen, way back when, the Class of 1955
seemed so far away, but, unbelievable as it is, in about one more day,
we'll be finished with classes at B.S.T.C. for good. That's a terrible way
to start a column. I feel bad now.
The quintet went apartment-hunting yesterday. What a riot! It paid
off though—a five-room job with all conveniences and a very nice landlady. Naturally, because of the background, Punch will cook. Bob is the
business man, Pope the washer woman, and Derk the cleanup committee. My Job ? I keep things dirty enough so George dosen't feel that he's
not doing his part. So, if Corinne doesn't hurry back, every M & G may
carry a column of "The Fraternity Five Off Campus". No, Oggy, th a t
isn't a sequel to "The Hardy Boys" Series.
Talking about Miss C-Notes. She's all sick with malnutrition. (No
relation to Mai Smith.) I don 't know if that's grounds for suing the
state, but it might be worth a try.
Wait until they tear the lobby up too; then the chow line will form
on long porch and down 2nd Street. We'll have the only college in the
world where the girls go to dinner in snowsuits.
. Oh my, here's a big boo-boo! American Government class, Dr. Herre
at the helm. Question : Which was the last of the original 13 colonies to
ratify the constitution ? Answer, by one fellow named Derk in loud
voice: "Arizona. " Only the length of the U.S., and over a hundred years
off . My roommate!
Since I began writing this a few days ago, I've learned that Corinne
won't be back to school at all second semester. Certainly we'll miss her
and her column . She's one of the more intelligent people I've met in the
last 21 years.
After hearing what Bill Bitner's column is about this week, I should
like to say a few .thousand words in his hehalf . There's no doubt that B.
Bitner has the finest column of any type anywhere in the world. His
material is chosen with the utmost care and finesse . His choice of words,
fabulous! I feel that it is only fair to the reading public to say that even
though it would mean skipping Under Currents, read Sports Scuttlebutt
this issue.
Never has a more persuasive report been given than the report in
Science class by Bill Ellinger on High Fidelity. He gave "Hi-Fi" such a
buildup that Holley Smith left the class at 2:00^p.m. and by 2:30 had
purchased one of said sets. R.C.A. is looking for peoplelike you, Bill.
I've seen people late for classes already, but Angus is the only guy
I've seen stumble* in Vz hour late. Maybe he fell asleep in the bathtub.
Again ? ? ?
I didn 't see the wrestling matches last week, but everyone seemed
to enj oy them lots. Capt . Welliver took right up where he left off in high
school, and Harry Hughes didn 't take too much time to dispose of their
big fellow. When we're at f u ll str ength , we'll do o.k. for our first season.
Maybe we're not a physical education school, but there certainly is
a lot of enthusiasm for sports. Look at the intramural league— 16 teams
with at least 7 fellows on a team and that's well over 100 players in Centennial on Monday nights. Not bad for business students
Charlie Pope has been sick for two days and hasn't received one
single get-well card and he's been feeling quite low. So the next time
you see Charles on the street, mention how nice it is to see him up and
around and ask him how h e's feeling. He'll appreciate it!
Student teachers must not be having any fun this year. I never hear
any of the little funnies the children come off with like one with Mutt
Marr 's little student amazed him. Why did the calf kick her mother in
the belly ? To hear the Big Ma Moo. Any little stories will be appreciated, but I suppose soon I'D. be hearing some first-hand and they won't
seem too humorous then.
Table service is coming along nicely. In fact, nearly everyone gets
a seat sometimes. I hope you didn't forget the Honor Assembly this morning. Fifteen folks will be leaving for good, and I thi n k we owe th em to
go and watch them graduate . Some of you may never see another, graduate.
Well , it' s time for the basketball game so I'll stop for this time.
You won't be seeing me around the campus next semester (stop smiling,
Yohe) but I'll try to send up a few words to let you know how a bachelor 's life goes and how student teaching is coming along.
It's been great to be associated with people like those who inhabit
i
B.S.T.C.
