WHAT 'S IN A NAME?
by MAE ROMIG
A Freshman stopped me in the hall and remarked, "Say, ther e's a lot
of talk going around about Homecoming. Just what is this homecoming ?
What's it all about?"
I was tempted to give any of several answers. Homecoming is the
time of year when all the old graduates return to their Alma Mater,
primarily to watch the present football squad overwhelmingly defeat
its opponent, engaged mainly because of its inability to play football.
That was my Freshman conception of Homecoming.
Homecoming is the day when the alumni swarm back to BSTC to
tour the campus, note the improvements while bemoaning the long-lost
good old days, try to recapture them through renewing old friendships,
eat in the college cafeteria, and suffer through a football game arranged
for their entertainment. Caustically, I recalled my second impression of
Homecoming.
I knew both of these conceptions were biased, untrue. The basic parts
were there but they were out of proportion. Even as I hesitated, attempting to arrive at an adequate reply, the Freshman disappeared to j oin a
friend down the hall.
Later, alone in my room, I still sought an answer to his question,
"Just what is Homecoming?" Homecoming—Homecoming, I repeated,
bu t somehow it came out in reverse, Coming Home, and Iknew Ihad
my answer.
Homecoming is the one time of the college year when all the former
students return enmasse to revisit their Alma Mater, some out of a
sense of duty, many out of pride, and some merely out of curiosity. In
so doing, all are saying in effect, "BSTC, you have played an important
role in my life, in giving me some rudiments of an education, in enabling
me to form lasting friendships. You have been an integral part of my
life. Under your guidance I grew to maturity. And when you thought the
product was complete, you handed me a diploma and said, "Go prove
yourself."
"But when I left Bloomsburg, a part of you clung to me, refusing to
be shaken off. And it still clings, as year after year on Homecoming Day
I return once again to BSTC, not to relive old memories, not to contrast
present conditions with the 'good old days', and not to watch a football
game. Of course, I hope to meet old friends , but that is of secondary
importance. All I ask is a chance to mingle freely with all the others
before and after me who have shared my experiences at BSTC."

Three new members of the Board
of Trustees of BSTC attended their
first meeting on Wednesday, September 19. They are the Hon. Carl
E. Fleckenstine, R.D. 2, Orangeville , Pennsylvania; Hon. Harold
L. Paul, Masonic Building, Pottsville , Pennsylvania; Mr. Leo S.

LOUNGE LIZARD
by E. JAY
Now , you might think after reading this delightful column that I am
completely mad and roaring at the end of a stout chain ( some of my
teachers think so too), but that's not at all true—I'm j ust dashing
around with my head under one arm. It saves wear and tear on the
neck!
As a pledged lounge lizard, I look about me to observe that the
freshmen girls (as always ) are doing great and so is Bobby Boyle. The
pep rally in the lounge was terrific and the cheerleaders did a swell j ob.
The only trouble was I couldn't see for the crowd. We would be going
great if we could get a couple hundred students up to the games to
cheer the team to victory. It works wonders. Why don't we try it sometime ? My eagle eye caught our terrific guys in action against Delaware.
Practice makes football players !
I see that congratulations are in order for Shirl Sieler and George
Vivacqua. Good Luck ! Speaking of luck, I guess the student teachers
really need it. All it takes is a hand on the head to get the kids in order
—right Moose ? Student teachers in Williamsport have a lovely marking
system—24 E's and 1 B in their grade books. Honest! Almost better
grades than we get up here on the hill! Barb Lentz thinks that even
though you're student teaching, you can't get this place out of your
blood. Now don't be too sure—tests, classes , excuse blanks! Have they
forgotten already ? And who was it that asked Cris Boop if she was on
the ball!
What goes in second heaven ? I see the password is twenty-one or
could it be the huge signs. Did you hear about this new card game ? It's
played with round cards with numbers on them and you always lose—
Eh, Swegzy ? Consolations to Kautz and Bert for their lack of funds.
Phil must have worked hard!
Then there's the smokers and Marianne and her love life. To keep
up the noise we have a transfer, Nancy Ault, who loves to kill flies. Just
• because they 're spooning on her geography book! No heart.
Isee fou rt h floor has "trials and tribulations" of bunk beds. Better
see Emma K., she'll help you out. There are always ways to SAW out
of these problems. And then there are bars on your windows to protect
the girls from burglars. More like a zoo each day.
Now, back to the lounge, my usual vacationing spot. Darn such business—milk is now 15c, what f und are they contributing to these days?
To top it all off—what a little sleep does for one. As Mr. Blair said,
"Okay , Sack Rat," meaning Charlie Riegel, of course. But you should see
him after sleep and milk! He sings, hoots, roars, laughs—almost takes
over Bo's place. Maybe the milk's spiked—that could be the reason for
the 15c. But what goes now Charlie, did you sit on a tack ?
Up in North Hall I hear Bottorf's been collecting college newspapers.
Did somebody mention his name in the last issue ? Or could it be his
roommate is papering the walls.
Bye now, and don't study too hard (next jo ke). So glad to see Mary
Galatha around. Oh, I'll be dead yet. Don't sleep at eigh t o'clock—they
have lovely drills that sing to you each morning.
Oh yes! Senior pictures are coming out and they are j ust lovely. Like
little gremlins—Eh , Mar ?
The question for the month is: "How did you get the window shade
down, Evie?" Suzi still hasn't figured it out , but neither did I.

LET' S BEAT MANSFIELD MOUNTA INEERS
. . SPORTS HI-LITES . .
by DON COFFM AN
The annual Homecoming festivities here on College Hill will again
focus their attention on the gridiron. Our once-beaten Huskies will
match their wits with a stubborn, fired-up Mountaineer eleven from
Mansfield State Teachers College. The Mountaineers found the going
rough in their first two outings, but last Saturday afternoon they staged
a tremendous upset over a highly favored crew from Kings College.
Therefore, they can be expected to give our Huskies an uphill battle
tomorrow afternoon.
Turning'back the pages of history, we would have to search hard to
find the last time a Husky eleven lost on Homecoming Day. In fact, the
last time the Huskies were defeated on Homecoming Day was way back
in 1947. Since that time the locals have compiled a commendable victory
string for Homecoming. In 1950 they blanked Kutztown State Teachers,
35-0, and the following year swamped Shippensburg, 40-14. Again in
1953 and 1954 they showed their power on the field by collecting decisive
conquests over Trenton and Wilkes by scores of 48-0 and 44-0 respectively. As you all may remember, the tide quickly changed, for Bernie
Koval and company, from Kings, hard pressed the Huskies last year
before falling, 20-19. The fans this year may again expect a near repeat
of last year's traditional Homecoming tilt.
The Yohemen appeared strong after their first win over Delaware
State; however, a strong defensive line by the Red Dragons of Cortland, and a few serious inj uries on our Husky squad slowed down the
Husky drive last weekend. The Mountaineers, who upset Kings last
weekend, are determined in their bid to upset the Homecoming festivities here on the local campus. They have a hard-running halfback in
Vince Siracuse who figured in two of the three scores the Mountaineers
made last week.
The battle in the State Teachers Conference play has already thrown
the race into a mad free-for-all. Top-seeded California State Teachers
has already lost two conference tilts, both at home. Two weeks ago the
feared Vulean eleven lost to Indiana STC in the final minutes, 6-0, and
last week they were beaten by a powerful Lock Haven team, 14-0. In
all indications, California's bid for victory has already been cut off;
however, they still may hold the key to the final victor in the race as
they will play both West Chester and Blooirsburg.
The once feared Red Raider team from Shippensburg, who will entertain our Huskies next weekend, also have apparently dropped from the
scene as they were defeated by a potent East Stroudsburg squad. The
Warriors of East Stroudsburg also hold on as a threat for this league
championship. The Warriors at present remain undefeated as they
downed Shippensburg 13-0 last Saturday.
According to Merle Agnella, STC Conference Publicity Director,
West Chester is the team most likely to succeed as champions of the
Pennsylvania State Teachers College Conference. At the present time,
the Rams have not played a conference tilt ; however, last week they
were upset 33-7 by New Haven STC.
All this seems to point out that the conference title will be decided
right here in the east after all, with West Chester, East Stroudsburg,
and Bloomsburg as the big three. California and Lock Haven definitely
will hold a majo r role in the final decision, but they are not expected to
go all the way.
In order for the Huskies to capture the coveted crown, there will
have to be more of that old college spirit behind them, such as that
which was displayed on Mt. Olympus last Saturday. The attendance for
the first two games has been disappointing and disgraceful for a college
our size. Now with the opening of conference play, the Huskies will need
more than ever your devoted patronage. Let's keep that college spirit
with us for the remaining games. Remember, following our game tomorrow, the Yohemen play four straight away contests. So let's support
our team, home and away!
QUICK PICK-UPS... Kings College has made a change in their football
Homecoming tilt for this year, They were originally scheduled to tangle
with the University of Scranton on October 20; however, Homecoming
will be held the following week when the Monarchs entertain our Huskies in Wilkes-Barre Memorial Stadium... One of the rare oddities occurred on the football field a week ago Saturday at California STC.
With the Vulcan team hosting Indiana, Freshman George Polonoli
scampered off on a touchd own run of abou t 45 yards when, for no apparent reason, the ball squirmed from his hands and was recovered in
flight by Indiana's Dick Denville. Polonoli was on Indiana's four yard
line and could have easily scored had the ball not squeezed out of his
arms. This rare action took place in the first period and, no doubt,
changed the complexion of the entire game. . . West Chester cannot
carry Frosh on their varsity football squad since their male enrollment
has gone over the 750 mark according to Eastern Collegiate Athletic
Conference Rules. West Chester is the only eleven belonging to the
ECAC in the State Teachers College Conference. . .

pigskin pointers. Here at Bloomsburg Harry is showing- that his
high school training paid off. Not
only is he a capable performer on
the gridiron, but he is also a mat
star for Coach Blair's wrestling
squad.
Although Harry has put in a
good performance in every game
for Bloom, he says his most excit ing moment came during his freshman year when he caught a blocked punt and ran ten yards to paydirt.
Jim Browning and Charley Skiptunas rank as Harry's favorite
teammates with the Huskies.
When he is not "roughing it"
atop Mt. Olympus or in Centennial Gym, Harry enjoys bowling
and fishing as his favoite pastimes.
Harry's maj or fields at Bloomsburg are social studies and geography. Next semester he will do his
student teaching.
After receiving his diploma in
May, Harry plans on a teaching
car eer , but may firs t spend a few
years in the Army. We wish the
very best to Harry and thank him
for his fine service to BSTC.

Well , the leaves are changing color and the weather is getting a
little nippy—guess it's about football time again. You couldn 't really tell
from the number of students at the games. Honestly, Where 's your
school spirit ? You must have some! Let' s get on the ball—the team

Speak i ng of ch eerleaders , those peppy little gals are gettin g new

While we' re on t he subj ect , we'll mention something about clothin g
that looks appropriate for a game. Something casual is the keynote. We
don ' t mean casual to the point of slacks or bermudas—here on the
BSTC campus it's just not allowed. At one of the scrimmages , we saw a
nea t looking outfit—a strai ght , dork brown , wool skirt , beige sweater,
and a b ulky knit black , beige and white striped sweater over it.
As t he weather turns cooler, blazers and suede jackets will become
popular. They look neat with almost any type of skirt , except those that
ar e worn over three or four crinolines. TTien, as the weather becomes
st ill colder , car coats will be about the coziest and warmest to wear.
We peeked into some closets here in Waller Hal. and saw some very
nice , color ful coats. Althou gh khaki is very popular , one in particular
was a bri ght red woolly car cont , lined in navy, with a collar that can be

ALPHA PSI OMEGA

Leading the student body as they cheer the Huskies on to victory in
the 1956 foqjfcball season will be six able cheerleaders, sponsored by Mr.
Johnson. Returning to cheer and head the group will be Sandy McBride,
a j unior from Williamsport. Annette Williams of Hanover Township,
also a ju nior, will continue to arouse school spirit with peppy cheers and
infectuous grins. Two spirited sophomores, Ann Beeson and Margie
Marson, both of the Philadelphia suburbs, will again lend their talents
to the success of pep rallies, parades, and games. Chester's June Locke
and Kingston 's Ginny Hardy represent the freshman class and complete
the cheering squad.
Present at every home game, pep rally, and parade, the cheerle aders
add much to Bloomsburg's school spirit. A colorful picture in gold sweaters and new ma roon skirt s, the squad is an attractive and enthusiastic
group before the student body.
The cheerleaders purpose is to spark an intense interest and enthusiasm for the Husky team as it faces powerful opponents. The cheering
squad stirs spirit as it leads songs and cheers to build the fighting morale
of the Bloomsburg team. Cheerleaders never work alone. They are
merely the leaders of the entire student body working to inspire good
sportsmanship, thus spurring our team on to victory.
At all pep rallies, in the Husky Lounge and at Navy Hall, the cheering squad is there promoting school spirit and showing the football team
the confidence placed in the Huskies by their classmates and teachers.
No parade on college hill is complete without the cheerleaders. They
are an integral part of football at Bloomsburg.

BSTC was once again honored by the presentation of a trophy. However, the presentation was in honor of scholastic achievement rather
than the usual athletic award.

neatness, correctness and form of shorthand outlines. The eighteen
members of Mr. Rygiel's shorthand class received first place honors and

KAPPA DELTA PI

To be here or not to be here. That is the question facing most Bloomsburg students as the weekend draws near. It appears that the latter
solution is the one they most often choose. The reasoning behind their
decision puzzles many of us who are in the habit of avidly following the
Husky elevens in their gridiron endeavors.
Last week we suffered our first defeat at the hands of the powerful
Dragons of Cortland, but not without a well contested struggle, as the
score indicated. Those students who were at the game cheered with great
fervor until the final whistle. Unfortunately we weren't the recipients
of many breaks in the game against Cortland and still more woeful was
the fact that we were unable to capitalize on those we were fortunate
enough to get. The outstanding factor of the game was the enthusiasm
and spirit shown by the fans. The improvement over that of the previous
week was marvelous. Frankly, it is my belief that it may have been a
result of the speeches given at the bonfire pep rally by Joe Malczyk and
Bo Rainey.
Joe called upon the student body to recall the commendable j ob they
did last year. He also pointed out that this year's freshmen class had
inherited a crown whether they were desirous of it or not. In accepting
this crown the students must also realize the responsibilities entailed.
In Bo Rainey 's stirring speech he stated that it was his opinion that
this year we possess the potential to be the highest spirited student body
in the area if only the studen t body would accept Bloomsburg as their
home. Bo's seriousness reflected the feeling of many who have been here
at Bloom for a few years.
Is this week to be a "Homecoming " or a "Homegoing". Certainly we
can stay for this the last home game. Why don't we all go up to Mt.
Olympus on Saturday and show the returning relative of this family
that we want to aid our brothers on the team and support them as they
deserve ?
Is it too much to ask of ourselves to sacrifice a little for our home ?
We can all be winners if we all have the pep.

Everyone here at BSTCwill be seeing and hearing a great deal about
one of the biggest and most highly developed organizations on campus—
the Maroon and Gold Band.
Each year, students who have participated in their high-school bands
and those with an interest in band music are invited to j oin this hardworking group. They meet, under the direction of Mr. Nelson Miller, six
hours a week, rehearsing and planning programs for the coming school
year.
The Maroon and Gold Band is both a marching and a concert band.
During the football season it is seen on the field at half-time playing
college songs and displaying original skits.
After football season , the band begins preparing for several concerts
to be given during the remainder of the school year. They combine
marches, classical music, and rock and roll into several entertaining
performances.
This season the band has performed at the Delaware and Cortland
games and will tell the "Story of Two Alumni", this weekend, to .a
crowd of Homecomers during half-time at the BSTC-Mansfield game.
In the lead, strutting and twirling, will be the four peppy majorettes,
Sue Hoffman, head maj orette, Molly Mattern, returning from last year,
the two freshmen , Pam Fox and Janet Gross, and the drum-major, Don
Schlauch. In addition to performing at our home games, the band will
march on the fields of West Chester, Kings, and Shippensburg.
At the helm of the band, as president, in Alan Kleinschrodt assisted
by Vice-president Don Kerr, Secretary Dorothy Stoudt, and Treasurer
Kenny Swatt. Under their leadership, the organization will conduct six
concerts—the first to welcome visitors and friends to BSTC Homecoming
will be on Saturday morning at 10:30 in front of Carver Hall .
