Students Respond
With Enthusiasm to
Freshman Talent

"With great pleasure and in true
minstrel fashion" the freshmen at
Bloomsburg State Teacher's College presented their Talent Show.
Six end men, typical characters of
the good old Minstrel Days, constituted the backbone of the program
by tying the acts together with
hilarious comedy and forming a
continuous minstrel background.
The freshmen talent poured forth
in 'the form of sparkling comedy
and the "best" loved songs of yesteryear and today.
Despite the fact that several of
the End Men were feeling rather
low; Jumbo complaining of mumps,
Sam Sour feeling like a pretzel,
and Mint Julip being concerned
with his tonsils; the show got off

This is an actual photo of Carl Stanitski ( top) and Joe Worrell, the
"biggest men" on campus, tucked in their little beds, in the littlest room
in North Hall.
Carl and Joe, both freshmen, and both 6'7" have housing problems
here at BSTC. One of them, with his arms outspread, spans the width
of their tiny third floor room. And the two of them standing together
at arms length , span the entire length of the room. If they need haircuts,
they brush their heads on their doorway which is only 6'8" high. And to
make matters worse, their closet doorway is only 6'4". Their mirror is
only chest high, and their legs tangle if they both use the desk at the
same time.
Joe, a recent graduate of West Chester High School, weighs a neat
220 pounds and wears a size 13 shoe. His little roommate, Carl, who
comes from Shamokin, weighs only 210 and wears size twelve shoes.
We hear that there isn't an empty space on their closet floor because of
those huge shoes lying around.
They claim they have to take turn breathing in their little room ; but
imagine the situation when they have company—and especially when
it's Carl's twin brother, a freshman at West Chester.

Bill Roberts paved the way for

Greeting Terminology Changed
by Student Association
by Gus Spentzas

Sixteen seniors from Bloomsburg
State Teachers College have been
selected for inclusion in the 195657 edition of "Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities ".
These students were nominated for
membership by a faculty committee on the basis of scholarship,
participation in extra-curricular
activities, personality traits, and
professional promise.
The 1956-1957 selections were
announced by John A. Hoch, Dean
of Instruction.
James B. Creasy is enrolled in
the business curriculum. He is a
member of Kappa Delta Pi and Pi
Omega Pi. James served as business manager of the Olympian,
treasurer of Dramatic Club, and
class representative to CGA.
Kathryn Ann Crew of Williamsport , enrolled in the elementary
curriculum, is class historian, senior representative to the Waller
Hall Governing Board, and President of "B" Club. She also served
as art editor of the Olympian.
John J. Ford of Shamokin is enrolled in the business curriculum.
He is a member of Kappa Delta Pi ,
vice-president of Pi Omega Pi,
president of the Day Men's Association, and a member of the Business Education Club.
Evelyn J. Gilchrist of Pottsville
is in the business curriculum. Senior representative to CGA and
chairman of the election board.
Evelyn was editor of the Olympian
and a feature columnist for the
Maroon and Gold.
William D. Kautz of Harrisburg
is enrolled in the secondary curriculum. He is President of CGA,
treasurer of Gamma Theta Pi, and
a sports writer for the Maroon and
Gold,

At the last meeting of the Students Subversive Association, it was
moved and passed unanimously that the greeting of "Hi" be outlawed
from further use on the campus. It has been discovered that this greeting has met with approval and extensive use by the student body ( common herd). The president also protested the fact that people are becoming friendly with each other.
It was suggested by the Dean of Inter-Student Relations, that further
greetings between students be confined to a blank stare followed by a
brief discussion of the good qualities of the Mascot Retirement Fund.
The Dean of Rule Enforcement stated that punishment for using the
word "Hi" will be administered in the council room where the offenders
will be forced to stand for two days and listen to a record continually
repeating the phrases "Hi Gang", "Hi There", "Hi Everybody", "Hi"
"Hi". A loud shrill laugh will follow these phrases.
A vote was taken. A small group forming the opposition asked for
discussion before voting. They were removed from the room, however,
and the vote wa taken, in an orderly fashion. Surprisingly, the motion
was carried unanimously.
The action taken for disuse of the greeting "Hi" will be promulgated
by memorandum in a few days. A slight delay will result in making
copies of the memo, since it will take some time to obtain the necessary
signatures and loyalty oaths required to use the ditto machine.

But somewhere we met a stumbling block and found ourselves hopelessly
lost and desperately looking for a means to pull ourselves out of this
"slump."
The Future Teachers of America has the answer to our problems.
They are again offering a tutoring service to all students who desire help
with troublesome subjects. This service is now being offered in business,
mathematics, science, history, and English. There is no charge and the
time and number of hours per week can be arranged between the student

.. SPORTS HI-LITES .,
by DON COFFMAN

This evening the Huskies will attempt to regain some of the prestige they lost last weekend at California by upsetting the highly favored Golden Rams of West Chester. This
spirited rivalry, which is over 30 years old,
may prove to be the deciding factor in the
capping of the STC crown.
Last Saturday afternoon the Huskies were
humiliated at the hands of the winless ' Vulcans of California STC. A fired-up team, tough
breaks, and poor officiating were some of the
justifications that were offered in defense of
our team.
Earlier in the season, the Huskies were
stopped cold by a power-laden crew from
Cortland. We took that defeat in stride, mainly because that was .not a conference game.
Numerous reasons were given for that defeat ,
including school spirit. Just two weeks later,
our gridiron crew traveled to Shippensburg,
along with a spirited cheering section, where again they claimed they
ran into tough breaks aiid another fired-up, powerful team.
From this standpoint , however, it appears that once the Huskies get
behind they make no team effort to do anything about it. Last Saturday
they again went down to defeat due to similar reasons. Perhaps the team
had a psychological disadvantage due to past scores between the two
schools, and due to California 's pre-season edge.
It is definite that the school spirit has proven one to be proud of in
the past few weeks; however, I feel that the students have not been
rewarded for their efforts.
We are defending a title; and the team should make every effort to
do so. We have practically the same team that won the championship
for us last year, along with a fine freshman team. What has happened ?
In our t hree losses, we have been able to garner only 12 points while
giving the opp osition 57. We should be able to defend that title with
pride, not with shame. We have men on our team who are candidates for
all-state berths—Malczyk, Watts, Hughes, Rainey, and others. We have
a heavy line; we have been able to hold our own on many occasions. Yet
we have lost three games! Two of these three games should be tucked
under our belts as victories, and the game tonight with West Chester,
should be one to decide the title between Bloomsburg and West Chester,
not between West Chester, East Stroudsburg, and Shippensburg.
In previous games, the Huskies have mastered terrific plays. Watts
showed his power in the game at Kings; the entire squad thrilled the
Homecoming crowd; and additional strength was shown in the first game
of the season.
The Yohemen know that West Chester is "Up" for their game tonight,
especially sine© last year's Husky upset. The spirit is also riding high
between these two schools. Therefore, a fired-up West Chester squad
should be no reason for defeat.
Two weeks ago the Warriors of ESSTC ran into this same West
Chester eleven in the rain at West Chester. The high-riding Warriors
lost for the first time this year that evening, and practically eliminated
their chance for sole ownership of the crown.
We know that our Huskies are capable of knocking off the Rams tonight. We know that the spirit will be there. The Huskies will now have
nothing to lose and everything to gain. I know that they will give everything they have to produce this big upset.
As for the Championship—the old Brooklyn Dodger adage will suffice
— "Wait 'til next year!"

THE

PEPPER POT
b y BILL SHERIDAN

Finally, that anxiously awaited moment has arrived. It is time to
travel to scenic Chester County to meet and beat the much discussed
"Golden Ram" at West Chester. Having waited another year we are at
last rewarded with an opportunity to shatter the aspirations of our
opponents.
Certainly the conditions could not be more in our favor. Last week's
fatal encounter with California left us nowhere to go but up. However,
it also removed the pressure of championship competition and enables
us to play the role of spoilers. Now, truly, is the time to avenge the
defeats of the season by taking the big game and the chances for the
championship away from coach Glen Killinger 's charges. An item that
surely shouldn't be overlooked that counts heavily in the Huskies favor
is the fact that the Bloomsburg student body plans to be represented
by at least three hundred of its members.
The bus trip to West Chester had long been a dream of Bob Gower and
he was determined not to allow it to simply remain a dream. Few of us
realize the obstacles that are entailed with an event of this sort. Certainly it is not an easy task. However, Bob has done a commendable j ob
along with a committee composed of the co-chairman of the Pep Committee, the co-chairman of the Social Recreation Committee, and many
other leaders of various student activities. This special committee began
formulating the proposed trip way back at the beginning of the semester
and worked quietly behind the scenes so that they would not detract
from the importance of any other games. Then, last week, posters very
ably composed by Ken Weir were displayed around campus. George
Viviacqua spoke to you in assembly and revealed the many events proposed to make this more than ju st a but trip. This will be an unforgetable weekend and unequaled in the annals of Bloomsburg 's history. The
weekend will culminate in a dance on Saturday night in honor of a team
which deserves all the enthusiasm and support we can give them. It is
our hope that we can thank them in this way for their endeavors and
show them that we all have the pep.

Last Saturday afternoon the California Vulcans gained their first
victory in seven attempts by defeating the Huskies of Bloomsburg
by a 31-6 score. The victory-starved Vulcans sent an underestimated
and power laden team against the
Huskies.
Visiting BSTC was unable to
penetrate California's defensive
line until the fourth quarter when
hard-running Carl Sweet plunged
two yards for the touchdown.
Richard Wita was California's
hero, having tallied three out of
the live Vulcan touchdowns.

Harley 's Barber Shop

In every football season we have
one game that is more important
than any other—the West Chester
game. The traditional rivalry between Bloomsburg and West Chester dates back to 1925, the earliest
game on record.
This rivalry has been especially
intense since 1950, when the two
teams were scheduled to meet after a 19-year lapse. Both teams
were strong in the conference and
the conference title hinged on the
game which West Chester won.
Again in 1951 the BloomsburgWest Chester tilt was the deciding
game for the conference championship when the Huskies emerged
victorious. .
I
n 1952, 1953, and 1954 the games

ATHENAEUM CLUB
The Athenaeum Club held their
regular meeting Thursday, Nov. 1,
at 3:00 in Science Hall.
At this time, mambo lessons
were taught by Mrs. Isabelle Rosen, a member of the club.
Ray Calabreze, announcer for
the Bloomsburg radio station ,
WHLM , was guest speaker at the
previous meeting.
The only requirement for admission to the Athenaeum Club is an
interest in music.
Mr. Robert P. Ulmer is the club's
new advisor and Arlene Rando is
president.

MEN'S DORM ASSOCIATION
MEETING

A special meeting of the Men 's
Dormitory Association was held
Monday, November 6. The major
purpose of this meeting was to
make a constitutional change
which was necessary because of
the redefinition of those students
who are living in Bloomsburg and
in homes other than their own.
These students have been reclassified as resident students. It has
been suggested that they be included in the Men's Dorm Association. Hence, the organization
must change its name to Men 's
Resident Council.
Other items discussed were the
Bakeless fund , acquisition of pencil
sharpeners for each floor , and
floats for the West Chester parade.
