It 's All Over But the Memories ? ? ?

Since this is the last issue of the MAROON AND GOLD for general
distribution . . . except for Seniors, Alumni, etc. who will be around
for the May 21 Alumni issue . . . it's time to take inventory and close
up shop for this year's editor and staff.
First off , my sincere congratulations and best wishes to my successor,
Martha Starvatow. It's a j ob with a lot of headaches and deadlines,
Martie, but one with even more satisfying moments and unforgetable
memories . . . like the one of walking into the lounge and seeing dozens
of heads hidden between the pages of the latest issue. It may seem at
times that the only time anyone comments on the j ob you're doing as
editor is to point out a misspelled name or an incorrect date. But then
one day someone will make a casual compliment to praise an editorial,
photograph, or column , and suddenly you know that all the hours of
work , the pressing deadlines, and the many disappointments will have
been worth while. As Al Chiscon once told me, "you'd do it over a hundred times." . . . and I would.
The editor of a paper is entrusted with the responsibility of making
and carrying out the policy of the newspaper . . . and I think this includes presenting opinions in the editorial column. Because of this fact
I have attempted to air the views of the general student body on several
pertinent topics. Perhaps I was taking too much for granted in assuming
this responsibility and was over-impressed with the honor of being
editor. Still, the best one can do is to support those issues which he
thinks right . . . it is a sad individual indeed, who cannot stick to his
guns if he is convinced that he is right..
Following the principle that everyone likes to see his picture in the
paper and the known fact that students would rather see than read, we
have increased the number of pictures considerably in attempting to
cover all college functions with camera as well as pencil.
We also increased the sports coverage and the number of feature
columns in trying to satisfy more students in the range and variety of
material in the college newspaper.
Hampered as it is by deadlines and news availability, the MAROON
AND GOLD has to be content with recording fact rather than "scooping" news. However, even this procedure does serve a purpose . . . as
you will discover ten years from now when you pick up a yellowed and
dog-eared copy of the MAROON AND GOLD and read that Dr. Thomas
North retired in 1955.
To be sure, this year 's paper has had its share of trials and tribulations . . . but these are better left unsaid and known only to those
people directly involved. Where inexperience and lack of good judgment
on the part of the editor resulted in inferior issues, I can only hope that
later issues involving long-range planning and hours of work at least
served to balance the scales.
Few students realize the number of people who are invaluable and
necessary in the editing of the six-page issue you hold in your hand. To
all of these unseen workers, my most sincere thanks . . . even though
"Th ank s" is a grossly inadequate reward for the countless hour you've
given to the MAROON AND GOLD.
Especially do I thank the Editorial Board . . . Charlotte, Martie, Harriet, Ed , Joan, and Nancy Sue . . . for never complaining even when
the hours of writing heads and proofreading seemed to drag endlessly...
for filling every special assignment ungrudgingly . . . for j ust being
around when the editor needed advice, suggestions, and encouragement.
To those essentiaUdepartment heads, a special thanks also. Without
Larry, Elinor, Bernie, Joyce, and Bill there would have been no MAROON ANlD GOLD for news, feature, circulation, typing, and sports
are the backbone of any newspaper.
To borrow a pnrase trom "Butch , " orcnids to the hard-working Business Manager, George Derk, who kept us in the red and even made a
profit with the increased amount of advertising.
My thanks to Mrs. Anna Knijyht for the information that was always
correct, the leads that always ended in a story, the smile that always
minimized any problem.
To Dr . Andruss and the faculty Publications Committee, a vote of
appreciation for allowing me a free hand to operate the paper as I
thought best, yet offering any help and advice you could give when I
sough t the benefit of your experience.
To the MAROON AND GOLD reporters, typists, salesmen, columnists,
photographers, G.I. mail and exchange editors, and copy readers my
thanks for making the paper possible.
witnout an aaviser, mere couia oe no college newspaper, so my most
sincere grantitude goes to Mr. Edward T. DeVoo. Although I sought
your advice and help most often when there was a problem to solve or a
difficulty to avoid, I appreciated your aid when the sailing was smooth
too. I take this opportunity to publicly thank you for your patience
when my inexperience showed and your good judgment when mine was
f aulty.
I truly hope that the students, faculty, administration, and alumni
of B.S.T.C. have enj oyed reading the MAROON AND GOLD, and that
you'll keep at least one issue as a momento of college years. As for the
Seniors and my year as editor. . . . "It's all over but the memories."
— Joanne Hester

If you were in the audience at:
the Honor Assembly a few hoursi
ago (as all prospective seniors;
should have been ) you could not;help being impressed by the sincerity and ability of one particular
student . . . the senior class pres" ident, Arnie Garinger. To Arnie
we pay tribute in this final profile.
Hailing from Harvey 's Lake
where he attended Lake Townshipi
High School, Arnie was active as
editor of his high school yearbook
and in both the high school band
and the Northeast District Band.
He played baseball and basketball
. . . and missed being a football
hero only because there was no
football team!!
Because he had the highest
average of all senior boys, Arnie
had the pleasant coincidence of introducing Dr. Harvey A. Andruss
as commencement speaker.
After following Dr. Andruss
back to B.S.T.C., Arnie continued
his active extra-curricular life by
j oining the Dorm Men's Associat ion , Science Club, Pep Committee , Maroon and Gold staff , the
Bloomsburg Players, and promptly
became a football manager .
During his sophomore year, Arnie added Varsity Club and Wesley
Fellowship to his list of activities,
•and made a name for himself as
an avid booster of all college
events. Whenever a campus organization needed a push or a plug,
Arnie was the person to see because he invariably did the best
job.
As a college crier in nis J unior
year, Arnie became even more
well known , and his Maroon and
Gold column . "Under Currents, "
came to be as much a part of
Bloomsburg as Leo and Leona.
Assembly Committee and the
Olympian also kept Arnie busy
last year . . . in addition to his
favorite hobbies of hunting, sports,
talking, and a certain petite coed
from fourth floor.
In searching for a class president , the seniors f ound the logical
and ideal one in Arnie . . . a born
leader , an extremely popular and
well-known campus personality,
and a person as genuine and sincere beneath the glib talk as Harry Logan's two carat diamond in
the Fashion Show.
.nit: emuiency wj ui which Arnie

executed his office are a source of
pride to the class of 1955 and the
entire college community. By popular demand, Arnie continued his
column in the Maroon and Gold,
represented the seniors on College
Coun cil , and capably managed Mr.
Yohe and the football team, during
his final college year.
Arnie 's summer plans are rosey
indeed . . . or should we say "tan"
. . . for they include a life guard 's
j ob at the plush Irem Temple
Country Club in Dallas.
Tredyffrin-Eastown High School
in Berwyn will receive the benefits
of Arnie 's wit, personality and
secondary education when he settles down to teach there come
Septenfber.
In presenting Arnie with a coveted Service Key Award for outstanding service to B.S.T.C. this

Behind Closed Doors
by Ken Weir

Well, our "closed doors" were
opened last week and we had a
very thorough spring house cleaning. Two of the new College
officers were chosen from the
ranks of this year's Council, so
there will be some carry-over as
far as experience goes. But the
most noteworthy fact is the number of new faces. The minutes of
the meeting usually tell the full
story, so we'll k now who does a nd
who doesn't; and who should be
re-elected and who shouldn 't . We
will be expecting a lot from these
new faces!
A tew committees have been
named and are already busy planning for next fall. Emy Park and
John Moss will share the problems of Customs (beware of the
Lagoon!). Jo Graeber and Bob Ebner will group some Frosh for the
Ann ual Freshmen Talent Show.
Joan Rieder and Bud Sheridan
hope to find a hospitable group to
assist them in making sure the
Frosh don't get lost around campus . Other committee heads will be
named next fall.
Many cnanges win taKe place
before we return in September.
We'll lose some of our faculty and
adopt some to fill the vacancies.
Our dining room building will begin to take shape on the old Tennis Courts. Waller Hall will have
a complete new look, with 1000
mail boxes at the Post Office. We
hope our book store and Canteen
will be finished; but we can be
sure that Coach Yohe will have an
assistant. Most important we'll
have two or three hundred Freshmen waiting to be adopted by
those of us who return . . . that
will be our most important j ob.

ORCHIDS and ONIONS
by

"Butch"

TOP to TOE
BY TUCKY

Spring has finally arrived . We
hardly ever see those "winter
woolies" any more. Everyone is
dressed to a "T" in their bright
summer cottons.
The big news this summer is the
convertibility of the fashions. For
example, you might begin with a
one-piece black cotton playsuit
and then for a quick change at
dinner, j(ou can shift into the
matching cotton skirt.
Another new color to hit the
stores this season is bluebonnet
blue. These bright and light shades
color a whole raft of fresh young
fashions .
But , the trend here on campus
seems to be bermuda shorts and
bathing suits for sunbathing which
really suits during these nice days.
Our unlucky co-eds still have to
wear skir ts to classes though.
Alice Fisher looked like she had
j ust stepped off the stage of the
Fashion Show in her full skirt
with a white background decorated with green corn flowers, very
original.
Janice Bauer has been sporting
a new, full black skirt with little
houses and lollypops scattered over it in all the colors of the rainbow.
If you 've seen Louise LaSorsa
recently, you might think you 've
seen an optical illusion. I don't
mean Louise, I mean her very different and attractive out fi t of
navy blue and white cotton . The
top of this outfit is navy blue with
white horizontal stripes and long
vertical V-shaped peaks. The
matching full skirt is white with
navy blue vertical peaks around it.
Her dress has a V neck with a
wide white collar .
Shirley Wagner looks as gay as
can be in her paneled yellow cotton outfit. The matching skirt
and blouse form slender vertical
stripes of shades of yellow with
small flowers over the whole outfi t. One of the prettiest I've seen.
Peggy Gear-hart was in full fashion for Spring in her full cotton
skirt with a white background and
huge pink and blue flowers . She
wore a sleeveless pink blouse to
match.
Since this will be my last column for the year and my last
chance to pay tribute to our seniors, may I sincerely say:
Your four full years are finally

Since ORCHIDS and ONIONS
made its first appearance last fall,
we've tried in our own simple way
to toss out a few compliments and
an occasional slam. True enough,
once in a while they were for copy
only. There was a column to be
written, and we needed victims.
But usually we tried to avoid all
the customary "nice talk" that is
found in school publications. We
didn 't say that everything was a
success, that everyone looked
lovely, or t h at th ey all h ave the
greatest personalities. If a person

"SO LONG , OLD FRIEN D"
by James Gromloy

You know, old friend , the time has
come
For me to say goodbye.
To look once more at everything,
To breathe one final sigh.
The time has come when there
must be
The parting of the ways,
To place inside my book of life
The dreams of college days.
There are so many things to say
When one must take his leave.
And on these things my thoughts
have built
A mellow interweave
Of all the hopes and all' the joys
Which I would Uke to tell
In this, my final word to you ;
In this, my last farewell.

A multitude of memories
Is covered by goodbye:
The campus walk on warm spring
days,
And the winter 's darkened sky;
The old friends that I greet each
fall,
The thrill of football games;
The backdrop of the countryside,
The dying leaves in flames.

Goodbye is so inadequate;
Goodbye is sometimes cruel.
It cannot tell the feeling In
A simple word like school.
Goodbye, perhaps, can touch upon ,
But never can express
The little things you meant to me,
A fleeting happiness.

CorneliusOsgood
Cornelius Osgood, a noted anthropologist, has written an informative book about the strife of
the Koreans in their attempt to
restore the dignity of their counry. Osgood gives some genetrating glimpses into the Korean farming villages, rice field s, and class
systems in the early part of the
twentieth century. The book includes the distinctive characteristics of a Korean culture, largely
influenced by China. The author 's
final chapters are devoted to the
period of Japanese annexation and
American occupation, and to the
trumatic occurrences of 1950.

our relations with these Asiatic
countries.

tips.

Our best wishes to these efficient editors and their capable staffs for
next year's publications! Their diligent work will pave the way towards
the completion of their goals.
To the senior class, we send our sincere hopes that each will find
happiness and success in his chosen field. Although you will no longer
be in our halls, you will still be in our hearts. The fine qualities of your
personalities and leadership shall never be erased from our memory as
an example to those who remain at the "friendly college on the hill ."

What's Your Opinion?

Time to go home again ! It
seems almost impossible that another school year has slipped by,
and soon we'll all be going our
separate ways for the summer
vacation. Some have completed
their schooling and will not come
back in the fall. In reviewing your
past year at B.S.T.C. what personal satisfaction have you derived
from it?
Relda Rohrbach : "I think the
greatest satisfaction was student
teaching and watching the children learn and develop. I was
also very proud of my appointment to "Who's Who Among
Students in American Colleges
and Universities."
Sandy McBride: "There are two
things, and the first came early
• ' in the year when, much to my
surprise, I was chosen to be a
varsity cheerleader. I know I'll
never forget this year and how
much fun it was cheering at all
the games and pep rallies, and
working with such great girls.
The second thing is tne many
friendships I have made through- •
out the year. As I think back
over the year and some of the
things that have happened , I
can't help but think of all my
friends , and I realize I have met
more wonderful people than any
girl would ever hope to meet . I
only hope that many of these
will be life-long friendships."
Curt English : "During the past
year we have seen success come
to many members of our college
community . We have seen our
. college grow, and we are watching our campus become more
beautiful , I'm sure these hap-

penings have made us all feel a
sense of satisfaction. I think
Bloomsburg is truly a great
place."
Alberta Semanski: "I believe my
greatest personal satisfaction
this year has been my student
teaching, I came to appreciate
all the courses I had taken during my first three years here
when I discovered that I could
use them in actual teaching situations."

and an athlete, but above all as a
gentleman^!!
Tomorrow our Campus Clan will
begin heeding the call of wanderlust. That faraway look that has
been noticed so often in the past
few weeks will soon be satisfied.
The Navy will take a few guys on
their annual cruise to the Mediterranean or the Caribbean . Ocean
City will probably claim the largest number of "Bloom" studes,
with Wildwood and the Poconos
running a close second. But
whether you're in Summer Session, the Navy, or basking in the
sun in good old O.C.; final exams
are over . . . its time to relax .
Skytop, Noetling Hall, Wildwood, or Eagles Mere . . . take
your choice, but have a great summer!!!

With graduation so near, our attention is , dr awn to those st u dents who
will return to our campus again next fall as well as those who must say
farewell. There will be a strange emptiness as we no longer see these
busy smiling people dash past, but our own class leaders shall sincerely
attempt to fill the expectations of the faculty, their parents and classmates, plus the expectations they personally hold.
We congratulate our seniors for their commendable work and will
strive to finish that which they so notably started. It is through patience
that we progress, by progressing that we become good followers, and it
is by following that we become good leaders.
In connection with leaders, we wish to take this opportunity to extend
our heartiest congratulations to the new editors of our college publications for next year.
Editor of the MAROON AND GOLD will be Martha Starvatow, a
peppy little miss who comes from the neighboring town of Berwick.
"Mar ty " is an accelerated student who has been active in Women's
Chorus, the Aviation Club, served as publicity chairman for Waller Hall,
was editor of the Co-Pilot, the Waller Hall handbook, on the Junior
Editorial board of the MAROON AND GOLD, Associate Edi tor of the
Pilot , news staff of the MAROON AND GOLD, and is a member of
Kappa Delta Pi, College Council, Canterbury Club, and senior representative of Waller Hall Governing Board. Reading, sew ing, tennis, and
j ournalism interest Marty, and she embroiders as a hobby. Plans for
the future lie around teaching in an elementary grade for our spritly
little new editor . Her perserverance and drive are apparent in all that
she undertakes, yet she always has time to give a friendly greeting. It
is Marty 's hope, along with the entire staff , that you will co-operate to
build our paper the way you want it. With Marty 's patience and pleasant
personality, she is certain to gain more recognition and accomplishments
for the MAROON AND GOLD
Joan n e Hester , one of those persons who is heavily loaded with
activities but somehow always manages to complete them, is the capable editor of the '56 Obiter. Her enthusiasm and ambition go hand in
hand. "Jo's" interest and hobbies are dancing, swimming, t ennis, stu ffed
animals, modern novels, and sentimental songs. Her college activities
include: MAROON AND GOLD Editor . Editorial Board, News Staff ;
Obiter Editorial Board, Advertising Staff; Olympian Editorial Board ;
Pi Omega Pi; Alpha Psi Omega ; Kappa Delta Pi; Historian ; Business
Education Club; Bloomsburg Players ; Women 's Chorus; Mixed Chorus;
F.T.A.; Waller Hall Governing Board ; Waller Hall Vice-President; College Council; C.G.A. Customs Committee; C.G.A. Awards Committee;
Fashion Show Co-ordinator; L.S.A.; and Religion-in-Life Week Committee. Like most students, her pet peeve of getting up early in the morning
is easily understood. Jo's leadership has already been proven countless
times, and we can feel confident that she will do an excellent job on the
yearbook.
A business student who spends many hours doing general office work
with Mrs. Knight is Evelyn Gilchrist, who will be the Editor of the
OLYMPIAN . "Evie" has displayed her flare for writing by her column
in the MAROON AND GOLD as weU as in the OLYMPIAN and Waller
Hall Handbook. She was a member of the Student Christian Association
and has a deep interest in books, travel, painting, and people. With
hopes to teach, to further her education, and to write a novel, Evie's
sincerity will pay her in large dividends in the future. To most people,
Evie is the reserved, tactful person who seldom seems to have worries,
but her only problem at college is: "trying to find a place to make noise
while my roommate is sleeping." Possessing the qualities of optimism and
calmness, Evie will undoubtedly edit an Olympian which we will be
proud to own.
Hailing from Fell Township High School is Edward Siscoe who is the
noteworthy PILOT Editor for the second year. "Ed" is also in the Business Curriculum and has served as president of his sophomore class, on
the Social and Recreational Committee; Business Education Club; Pi •
Omega Pi; Phi Sigma Pi; Kappa Delta Pi (recently elected president
for 1956) ; the MAROON AND GOLD Senior Editorial Board; Phi Sigma
Pi program chairman. Besides his broad background in the business
fi eld , he classes sports, literature ( preferring good fiction , not necessarily
best sellers and American history ) and journalism as his main interests.
Dislike for people who continuously complain about activities of clubs,
organizations or classes, but will not accept responsibility when asked to
do so, would rank at the top of his pet peeves. In regards to his fur.ure
plans, Ed hopes to gain his M.S. degree as soon as possible and to enter
the teaching field. A summer cross-country trip is planned within three
years, hinging on the choice of the other fellows in his gang. Ed's interest in college life can be depicted in his fine leadership in all his activi-

HONOR ROLL
OF HITS
During the past school year, I
have related to you those recordings which I thought were appealing to the maj ority of the campus
crowd. Because of this fact , I shall
devote today 's column to the studen t 's personal bids concerning
their favorite popular and standard recordings. (The truth of the
matter is that I have spring fever,
and am too lazy to compose all of
my own column.)
The f ollowing represents names
of prominent (?) members of the
college set, along with an account
of their favorite recordings which
will consist of one number that
has gained popularity in the past
year or so, followed by their favorite standard waxing:
Irvinff Alexander — "ANSWER
ME, MY LOVE", "SMOKE GETS
IN YOUR EYES" (That's strange,
unless I'm terribly mistaken,
smoke has a tendency to rise—
not fall.) Jeanne Benfer — "UNCHAINED MELODY", (two more
days, Jeanne) — "STARDUST".
Frank Prusch — "IF LOVING
YOU IS WRONG", "TENNESSEE WALTZ" (Frank really digs
that hillbilly music. Ask him to
yodel for you sometime. He's pretty good; maybe it's because he insists on ample "throat lubrication"
before his performances. Jan
Plummer — "SMILE" , "TENDERLY"—(I can't pass on any unfavorable comments about "Plum"
'cause she's my buddy, and besides
that, she packs a terrific right and
puts a lot of weight behind it.
Chick DeFebo — "SOMEWHE RE
ALONG THE WAY", "EVERYTHING HAPPENS TO ME"
( Don't feel bad, Chickjr ; you share
a universal complaint). Edward
Muguvro — "RUN AROUND",
"RHAPSODY IN BLUE" — ( Eddie is really going high-brow ; we
can't even call him "Acey " any
more. Maybe that's because so
many people mispronounced it.
Ross Bartleson — "ARE YOU
MINE" (WeU , Mary?) "BEER
BARREL POLKA" (so that's his
favorite standard recording... Oh
well, everyone to his own taste;
personally I like "RUM AND
COCA-COLA". Mary Golatha —"I'm YOURS" (there 's your answer, Ross), "YOU WERE MEANT
FOR ME" . Jack Bushoy — "WE
WON'T BE TOGETHER AGAIN",
"I'LL BE SEEING YOU" (Mixed
emotions, Jack ? I sympathize with
you.) Bob Gowor — "UNTIL",
"GREEN SLEEVES" (If Bob
could sport green sleeves as well
as he does those immaculate white
bucks, he'd start a new fad here
on the "cool" campus. Bum Woll
— "SEPTEMBER SONG" (Who 's
thinking of September?), "MAKE
YOURSELF COMFORTABLE" —
(Buzz has jusi * started the twomller, fans). Bob Asby — "THE
NAUGHTY LA'DY OF SHADY
LANE", "YOU'LL NEVER WALK
ALONE" (Ha Ha . . . You said Jt
Bob, I didn't!)
I believe that i stated at the
beginning of this column that I
did not Intend to add any personal
comments; but then who could
pass up such golden opportunities?
No personal offense, kids; I'm j ust
havling a little fun. . .
Have a terrific summer, all. Get

served cafeteria style, after the
regular college students had eaten .
At 1:00 p.m. the visitors returned to Carver Auditorium for the
Variety Show. Arnie Garinger acted as master of ceremonies for
the show. The Variety show included a dance act by six girls, an
electric guitar number, a voeal
trio, and several vocal solos.
After the show, the group dispersed. Some of the visitors left
at this time and others stayed for
the baseball game.
There were approximately 71
students who attended Visitation
day. 340 invitations were sent out
and 96 replied . Most of the students expressed definite plans for
entering Bloomsburg in the fall.

Ivy Day Address

( Continued from page 1)
Anna Dreese and Edwin Chase
were co-chairmen for the Caps and
Gowns Committee, while Keith
McKay and Alton Schmidt were
in charge of class pictures. Announcements and Name Cards
were under the chairmanship of
Jeanetta Mincer and Cora Gill,
while Virginia Home and Mollie
Hippensteel also worked on this
senior committee.
SO LONG OLD FRIEND

( Continued from page 2)
The word goodbye can hide so
much,
And be so incomplete.
It tells you what I have to do,
It marks a sad retreat.
The word goodbye can tell you

I'll miss your wondrous ways.
But can it ever tell you all ¦
In j ust one casual phrase?
I cannot tell in these few words
The feeling in my heart;
I can't reveal the way I'll feel
When we are far apart .
Impressions of a few short years
In words may go unknown;
But they'll be there in silent
prayer,
Sometimes, when I'm alone.
My time is done, I take my leave
And go my separate way ;
But I shall keep your mem'ry deep
For every lonely day.
Goodbye to that enchanting charm
I never could resist;
Goodbye to whims and chapel
hymns.
Goodbye to morning mist.
You know, old friend, the time has
come
To look once more at everything,
For me to say goodbye.
To breathe one final sigh .
The time has come when there
must be
The parting of the ways;
To place inside my book of life
The dreams of college days.

RUDY HOLTZMAN BEATS THE COME-BACK TRAIL . . . One of
the real surprises of the curren t baseball season to many of the local
experts was the great comeback of Rudy Holtzman, after being plagued
for the past two years with a sore left arm that forced Rudy to sit out
the '54 campaign and see only limited action during '53.
There were plenty of the local faithful pulling for the personable
port-sider from Clarks Summit, and he didn't leave them down ; he was
called urx>n to take the mound for
Doc in the tune-up game for the
Huskies over at Bucknell on the
first Saturday in April . In the
three innings that Doc used him,
the Bisons were set down one-twothree, right through the batting
order. Only two balls were hit out
of the infi eld , and they were two
routine flies to Chuck Casper in
left. When the Wagnermen took
the field in the season's opener ,
Doc again called for Rudy to handle the mound chores; this time,
it was Wilkes College at Wilkes.
It was a cold , windy Saturday so
Doc didn 't want to take any
chances with a reoccurrance of his
old plague and he lifted Rudy in
tavor ot Ji mmy Starr to nnisn out
the game after he had pitched five innings, giving-up only one earned
run and five hits to the Colonels. Rudy wasn't content with j ust doing
the pitching so he aided his own cause with a perfect two for two at the
plate. By the time the Rider game rolled around Rudy had definitely
established the fact that he was back in that old form that had made
him bait for the Indians and the Phillies a few years back, and was
now ready for another crack at the Boys from Trenton. Rudy Holtzman is the only Bloomsburg pitcher to have beaten Rider in the past
four years.
The Rider game was undoubtedly one of the best played games that
has been seen on Mt. Olympus since Scuttlebutt came to the Hill. For
nine innings Rudy showed Rider the best offerings he has been able to
serve-up in the last few years. He scattered eight hits but was down
two to one when he was lif ted in favor of a pinch swinger in the Husky
half of the ninth . A homer by Terry Zackowski relieved him of being
charged with a loss, but a highly disputed decision by plate umpire Mike
Sundi also relieved him of getting credit for the victory, which was reversed into a 4-3 defeat for the locals in overtime.
Rudy came to the land of the Husky from Clarks Summit High School
where he won eleven varsity letters in football , basketball and baseball
under Coach John Arcangelo. It was Coach Harold Shelly 's infl u en ce
that brought him to Bloomsburg, and Coach Shelly made good use of
Rudy as a member of the varsity cage squad as a frosh. In the spring
Rudy turned his talents to his first love baseball and was a monagram
winner under Coach Bob Redman. Rudy considers playing two varsity
sports on College Hill as a freshman the biggest thrill he has ever received from sports.
While playing at Clarks Summit High School Rudy was named to play
for the League all-stars for three seasons. Rudy also was a member of
the National Athletic Honor Society for three years in high school.
While on the Hill Rudy feels that pitcher Bill Creasy and third baseman 'Dave Linckhorst were the two best diamond stars he had the
opportunity to have played with. He also considers the current Husky
diamond crew as the best baseball team he has ever been a member of ,
and that Doc Wagner is due a lot of credit for stringing along with him
till his sore arm came around.
After graduation, Rudy is interested in teaching and coaching but
wouldn't turn down a crack at pro ball. He had try-outs with Cleveland
and the Phillies but decided upon college instead of a pro contract. This
summer Rudy will be showing the Tri-County League his southpaw
offerings in the uniform of Millville. One thing that has been overlooked by many coaches and fans when evaluating a pitcher and that is
their hitting ability. This is the case of Rudy who has never hit below
.300 in high school, hit .300 on the botton as a freshman in college and
is at the time of this writing hitting a smart .333.
PERSING , BROWNING MAKE MOST VALUABLE SELECTIONS . . .
The Indiana Penn, school newspaper of the Indian a State Teachers College, conducted a poll of the sports editors of the state teachers colleges
school papers for a "Most Valuable Player " award. Under the conditions
of the poll a player could play one or more sports and still be a candidate
for the award. Millersville's Bill Werkiser took the balloting hands down
with a total of 35 votes. Bill plays basketball and baseball. Bloomsburg
placed Tommy Persing in a tie for ninth place with 15 votes and Tom
participates in football only. Jim Browning mustered a tie for eleventh
with fourteen ballots to his credit . Jim of course is a Husky standout in
football and track . Complete results of the ballotting are as follows:

You know what ? . . . I didn't write that last column in the newspaper. My name and picture were there, but by George (weasel ) I didn't
write it. Got more comments than any of mine ever did. . . Miss Mettler
and other members of the faculty "tromped" up to me with fire in their
eyes and told me I'd never graduate. I didn't even know the printer had
pulled a ding-a-ling switch. Anyway, for all concerned, this is U.C. writing this time . . . even if Edgar Allen Poe's picture is up top, it's me!!
How 'bout our "near naked" boys . . . or the Husky thinclads . . .
well, the track team anyway. Two meets, two wins. (This is being written before the Scranton meet.) They haven't done that well since Jim
Thorpe came here to pick up elementary science one semester. A couple
guys have been making more points in one meet than our whole team
made per meet a couple years ago.
Our baseball team is doing O.K. too . . . 6 and 2 hain't no bad record.
. . . and that STC crown will look pretty good on Doc's head. Some ,of
those guys must feel like indian clubs, the way DOC juggled them
around, but it pays off and that's what we like to see.
While we're on sports, all "Scuttlebutt" aside, there's one thing I've
always wondered about. We go away to play an athletic contest and we
take a "rooking" from the officials. Now this can be expected. But undoubtedly we have the only school in the world that hires officials who
give us a terrible deal on our own field, court , mat , or what have you.
This Sunday fellow is a sacriledge to his own name. He stands behind
that plate and has the audacity to call balls and strikes after he ties his
seeing eye dog to the fence and is helped to said plate. Boy, we have to
be twice as good as anybody else to even stand a chance.
Everyone has been saying, this is your last column . . . at first I was
happy 'cause I wouldn't have to write anymore . . . now the more I
think about it, the more I feel rather poorly. Of all the things I've done
here at college, writing "Under Currents" has given me the biggest
charge. I guess some of you don't know where I got the name. Well,
Dave Newberry, who graduated two years ago, wrote an excellent column called "Current Currents." I figured mine wouldn't be as good as
his, so I called mine "under" currents. I also thought everyone could
shout "U.C. for me" and not have to be at a bar to get something . . .
so there's how it originated.
You know what made our dorm life bearable here at bloom? . . . Mr.
and Mrs. Hoch, our God-parents. You guys in North Hall don't know
what you'll be missing next year when the Hochs move. If I ever come
back to Bloomsburg, that's the first place I'll head for . . . to Mrs.
Hoch for goodies . . . after I see Jackie, of course !
Right now I want to say a couple of words about something I've never
mentioned before in my column . . . about me being president of the
Class of 1955. I want everyone concerned to know that nothing ever
made me prouder than being allowed to be a prexy. Seniors come and
go, and I've seen three other groups of four-year folks in action.. . .
and I'll still take our gang and put it on top. Never worked with a better
group in my life (never worked to be real truthful). And to you seniors
. . . when we have class reunion, let's all come back and tell each other
how we've prospered. (I may have to wire someone for carfare).
By the way, B. Mettler did not say . . . quote . . . field trips are
blah . . . unquote. She is all for them. What she did say is that she
should have taken them in her youthful day, not in her declining years.
Oh, if yas need me, I'll be at the Irem Temple Country Club saving
lives again this summer . . . and in the fall, Bobby ( Cumens, I mean )
and I have signed contracts at Berwyn, Pa. and as far as we know,
we'll be there next year. You'll be seeing me plenty though. . . I never
missed a football game in four years and I don't intend to start now.
'Course I'll have some others to attend, what with Bobby being assistant
coach there 'n all.
Well, I must finish this up. Maybe someday there will be someone
who'll think back and ask about that guy who used to write "low-dow n
kilowatts" or something like that . . . and that little gesture will make
me happy. Thanks for suffering through all these issues with me, and
it's been great being your voice and doing a little bit to entertain you.
God bless each and every one of you.
I
Very sincerely,
Arnie Garinger
