Robert Aura Smith ,
Known Lecturer ,
To Visit BSTC
Robert Aura Smith, political
scientist, author, educator, lecturer, is known among American lecturers as the "campus visitor ". He
will visit our campus on March 19
to lecture on the "Battle for Asia"
in the regular assembly prgram.
Born in Denver . Colorad o, Mr.
Smith attended such education institutions as Ohio Wesleyan Univer sity , Ohio , Rhodes Scholar, and
Oxford University. He has taught
English and political science at
Drake University, Evansville College, Barnard College, and Yale
University.
Smith has done much work on
some of the nations top newspapers
and radio networks. He is a recognized lecturer, magazine, and book
writer. His writings are concerned
primarily with problems in the
Far East.
Mr. Smith, unlike many speakers , uses maps and a blackboard
to help explain his talks — never
referring to notes. A political science teacher from a campus which
Smith recently visited, reported:
"I have j ust seen the greatest
demonstration of honest, intellectual, virtuosity that has ever been
on this campus."
Stan Freeman
To Appear on
Carver Stage
Stan Freeman, piano virtuoso
and musical satirist, will perform
during the assembly period on
March 28. 1957. Mr. Freeman is a
radio, television, and recording
star whose versatility, wit, and
mastery of the keyboard have won
international acclaim. His repertoire will cover piano interpretations, musical stories, show tunes,
and musical satires on numerous
phases of the American musical
scene.
Freeman made his first mark in
the musical world as a serious
musician. While serving in the
army, Freeman was introduced to
popular music which marked the
beginning of his diversified musical
style. He played with many orchestras and bands, among them the
Glenn Miller Army Band. Not forsaking his first love of the classics,
Freeman docs solo performances
with the New York Philharmonic
and Buffalo Symphony Orchestra.
In addition to shows of his own, he
has appeared as a guest on such
shows as the Kate Smith Hour,
the Steve Allen Show, and This
is Show Business.

New Dining Hall and Cafeteria
Will Be Opened after Easter
Students going to and from classes for the past several months have
watched the erection of the new dining hall and cafeteria. Now at last,
Dr. Andruss feels sure that we will be eating in the new building, which
is equipped to serve over 1000 people, after Easter. The main dining rooni
will seat 800-900 students and the portico, over 100 guests.

On March 21, formal initiation
will be held for Phi Sigma Pi members. This semester there are nine
pledgees to the fraternity. They
are: John Valania, Ronald Romig,
Bernard O'Brien, Allan Nuss, Wilbur Heldt, Michael Marcinka, Gerald Du nmoyer, and Edward Brower.
To become a member of Phi Sigma Pi, one must be nominated by
a member, have an accumulative
1.5 average, and endure the rigors
of pledge week.
Pledge week was under the
supervision of Joseph Butz, Carl
Janetka, and C. J. Pentzas. It began on Monday, March 11 and will
continue until Saturday, March 16.
General customs f or the week
included: wearing of shirt and tie
with suit or sport coat, pu rple and
gold ribbons, and the fraternity insigni a emblazoned on the pledgees
foreheads' with lipstick.
Un Monday tne Jfieagees were
asked questions on their fraternity
booklet. They also spent the day
walking to classes — backwards.
After dinner Brother Sheridan led
them to the lounge where they
sang the sentimental fraternity
sing, "Brothers Are We."
Tuesday was work day. Their
Spartan-like tasks included carrying books, running errands, polishing shoes, cleaning rooms, and
washing socks.
Wednesday they recited, upon
request , the moving "Teaching is
an Art ," by William Lyon Phelps.
Wednesday was also Serenade
Night.
Thursday was another busy day.
Not only did the Pledgees collect
the laundry of Phi Sigma Pi members ; they also became amateur
artists. Very Bohemian looking
too, in their smocks, paj ama tops,
and bedsheets.
Students going home for the
weekend had a break on Friday,
when Phi Sigma Pi pledgees were
on hand to load their baggage. As
a reward for this good deed the
pledgees were treated to a party
(which they paid for).

One of the main things on everyone's mind right now is
the coming CGA election. (At least it should be. ) Judg ing
by our own limited experience, this has been one of the best
election campaigns we have had for a while. And if this
year's campaign has done nothing else, it has added what is
perhaps a new word to our vocabularies — apathy. And it's
high time, too, that someone has brought to light one of the
biggest and most glaring shortcomings of BSTC students.
We have been too darned unconcerned about college
affairs. We have lulled ourselves into a kind of drowsy
half-sleep. And we have allowed the faculty and administration to dominate the Community Government Association, its duties and its responsibilities. We've grumbled about

The Life of a Belt
by BOB STEINItUCK
Did you ever think of how it would feel to hold up a pair of pants
all day long? It must be a terrible strain on that little band of leather
that is nowadays called a "belt". Of course, some belts have to, shall
we say, overcome obstacles.
These necessary particles of clothing have an extra hard j ob during
meal-time. They must learn how to expand and contract as the need
calls tor it. Of course, if the person wearing the belt eats too much, the
belt's life immediately comes to an abrupt end. The buckle will bend, the
belt hole will tear out, and only heaven knows what else will happen.
At any rate the little belt—brown, blue, grey, black, poka-dottcd, or
what have you—will be dead. He will be dead fighting vainly for your
horizontal cause.
Hardly anyone realizes it, but your belt dedicates his entire life to
you, his owner. So why don't you guard, guide, and protect him ? Don't
eat so much! Please!
on March 21. Get out and vote for
the candidates of your choice. Remember, they are the ones who
represent you behind those closed
doors of Room L.

— Anonymoui
by AL MILES
For the few of us that might read a novel primarily to become familiar with the plot, this novel appears to be just another love story in
which the heroine "lives happily ever after". The heroine in this case
is Marjorie Morgenstern, a beautiful Jewish girl who at seventeen decides to change her name to Morningstar and become a Broadway
actress. The hero (?), Noel Airman, is a remakably talented , Bohemiantype character whom Marjorie meets at a summer camp where she has
gone to seek a start in her acting career. They fall desperately in love.
The plot is mainly concerned with their love affair which blazes a trail
of passion from the Adirondacks to Broadway to Paris. Marj ories' strict
Jewish background, however, keeps her from being able to adapt herself to Noel's somewhat unusual life. The affair and the novel end with
her marriage to a New York lawyer.
On the surface this sounds like a very routine love story, but Wouk
has taken this mediocre plot and turned it into one of our better contemporary novels. In it he has embodied one of the dilemmas facing all
of Am erica's youth—conformity.
Noel Airman is a non-conformist whose- only attempt at conformity
turns out unsuccessfully. His life is filled with love affairs, sparkling
conversation, and a general withdrawal from bourgeois practices. He
sneers at respectability and security and refers to "nice" girls as
omi.ic.y s .
"Shirley" is the epitome of middleclass life. She conform to the patterns of society. She married into a respectable life in some quiet suburb
—a life so many of us seek. "Shirley ", in short, represents conformity.
Wouk handles the problem skillfully. Through his pen, we are able to
see the futility of Noel's life—hi s aimless wanderings over continents,
through torrid love affairs, and through philosophy and religion.
The chapter in which Marjo rie marries her "respectable lawyer"
might aptly be termed the "clincher". In it, Wouk tells us that Shirley's
way of life is perhaps not best, but at least necessary. This then consitutes the problem. What is best ? Shall we do what is necessary or
what we consider best ? Perhaps Wouk may be able to help you decide.
LINK TO THE PAST , by M th ormf on
The oldest link BSTC has with its past is probably Dean Emeritus
W. B. Sutliff. Dean Sutliff , a former Dean of Instruction, first came to
the campus of Bloomsburg State Normal School as a student in the
spring of 1889. After leaving BSNS he went to Lafayette College where
he obtained his Masters degree in 1898. That summer he was married
and both he and his wife came to Bloomsburg's campus to teach. Mrs.
Sutliff taught music and Dean Sutliff taught a variety of subjects that
first year. In 1899 he joined the mathematics department.
•Dean Sutliff organized the first summer school in 1919. This program
became necessary when the state increased teaching requirements. In
1921 he succeeded Dr. Fisher as Dean of Instruction.
Many students are fainiliar with Dean Sutliff not only because he
lives across the street from the College, but also because some of the
poetry which he writes has appeared in previous years in the Maroon
and Gold. Before his retirement in 1937 he contributed poetry to the
college newspaper using the mysterious letter "Q" as his signature.
Miss Andrews, his secretary, collected these poems and the Alumni
Association presented him with a bound copy upon his resignation. Most
of Dean Su tliff' s poems concern campus points of interest. A good example is the one below.

the Shellymen came back, only to be halted by the mighty Mauraders of
Millersviiie. On two occasions tne sneiiymen
went over the century mark at Centennial.
Swisher netted 38 points against Mansfield for
a record. Below are the final statistics, records, an other facts that complete the 1956-57

Harry Hughes To
Close Wrestling
Care er at BSTC
Although Harry Hughes is well
known at BSTC as a first rate
football player, he will also be
remembered as a first rate wrestler. As a heavyweight, he has established a formidable record with
the Huskies.
Harry came to BSTC from Williamsport High School where he
starred in football and wrestling.
While in high school, he placed 2nd
in the YMCA tournament.
Here at Bloomsburg he placed
second in the STC tournament this
year and came in third last year.
Of course . Harry has had many
exciting moments as a wrestler,
but he says his greatest thrills
were a twelve-second pin while in
high school and a twenty-second
pin in the STC tournament last
year. He lists his toughest opponents as Ken Ober and Ehvood
Reese.
Harry 's maj or fields at BSTC
are social studies and geography.
At the present he is student teach ing at Bloomsburg High School.
He also enj oys bowling and fishing.
After receiving his diploma in
May, Harry plans on a teaching
career.

MANY, MANY MOONS AGO
What CGA Means to Me
As a Candidate
by RAY HARGREAVES
j
I
Many many moons ago, Chief Sittum Kautz of the Huskonian tribe ;
located on a hill overlooking the Susquehanna River decided the time
had come for him to move on to better hunting grounds. This created i
problem — Who was to take his place ?
Many pow wows were held and many peace pipes smoked while th(
Indian counsel narrowed the list of eligible young braves to two, Lu
hooha and Hirayawatha. These were the hippest braves of the tribe anc
had the largest collections of college professors' scalps. To prove theii
worthiness, these young braves had to do such feats as hew water-tigh'
canoes out of old, used telegraph poles, lead squirrel expeditions througt
the campus wilderness, and grow maize in the window boxes outsidf
their tepees.
People off the reservation thought the Huskonians would make theii
final choice of a new leader by his war paint, headdress, and ability t(
shout above the torn toms. However, the Huskonians were an intelligent
group of Indians and showed they knew how to pick a good leader. The};
realized that, while both braves were strong and courageous and hare
worekrs, Hirayawatha was better at diplomatically counselling with th>
"higher-up chiefs".
The next year proved to be a successful, prosperous one, and the
Huskonians enjoyed better benefits than ever. Every Wednesday night
after the water skiing matches in Centennial pool, Calypso parties wen
held. To provide entertainment for their wee-end pow wows, the chief )
counsel had such famous visiting tribesmen as Heap Big Fats Domino i
Daniel's grandson, Pat Boone; and Pocahantas Mansfield , come to th(
Huskonian village. They even invited Elvis, but he was busy on th<
warpath and couldn't appear. Pre-fab teepees were provided for all rev
Indian families and after three years they were furnished with venetlai
blinds. Never had any Indian village showed such progress as this on
,
did under the capable leadership of Hirayawatha.

VOTE RAY FOR CGA
by LU NATTER
CGA stands for Community Government Association. Technically,
the community is our college campus. The government is an agent of
the community which makes rules and policies; the association, of
course, is the student body, faculty, and the administration functionin g
as a unit . Actually everyone of us is a member — a member in good
standing. College Council — the organization we usually think of when
we mention CGA — is an important, but small representative group
which carries out the functions of the larger organization, your CGA.
I was not thinking of that small group, alone, when I decided to ask
you to elect me to the office of President. What was in my mind, and
still i s, covers a much larger area. I want to work for the whole college.
The policies and discussions arising from meetings of College Council
affect every person connected with any phase of life here.
CGA is not a static or dormant body — it is dynamic. It moves and
changes with the times. College Council must be composed of representatives who are equipped to go forward with it. Progress on a college
campus is important, for it is on these campuses that men and women
are preparing to become representatives of a far more important and
dynamic organization — a nation.
The qualities of leadership are not measured in terms of IQ, Kuder
preference tests, or other such obj ective weights and measures. Instead,
we should think of more subjective qualities — enthusiasm, sincerity,
character, and deep, true feeling for the welfare of BSTC. It takes all
this and more. (The more meaning HEART) Yes, it takes heart to figh t
for what is best for the thing that means so much to you. If you cannot
do it yourself at least elect to xpur representative group someone to
fight for you. You may not realize it now, but good old Bloomsburg
means a lot to you, just as it does to me.

MAE BUSH
Funera l serv i ces were h eld f or
Mae Bush, a student here at BSTC,
last Monday night in the Husky
Lounge. Mae died tragically of a
broken heart following the death
of her pet dog Charlie.
Pallbearers were Don Coffman
and Ray Seitz of the Maroon and
Gold staff , Stiney Lumpczyk, Herman Hinksonworth, Percival VanF loot , and Harve y H . Applepress.
Miss Marianne Angradi provided
music f or th e serv ice, and Ginny
Hardy and Sandy McBride led the
congre gation , in cheers .
The epitaph on her tombstone
says — "She was a good girl, but
she couldn 't say no."
. . . ^k^ ^
We're wondering how many fellows saw the luscious prospective
student wander into the lounge last week. From our vantage point . . .
"Let's have lots of Basketball Tournaments if they bring such visitors."
Without a doubt . . . .

Did you hear about the time Jim Gustavo came home from third grade
with tears in his eyes ? His Mother tenderly asked him what had happened and between sobs Jimmy told her that some boy had called him
a,sissy. Mrs. Gustave asked Jim what happened next. Jim's reply...."I
hit him with my purse."
. And then while we were standing by the post office last night we
heard one coed tell the other, "If you write illegibly when you sign out,
it won't be so obvious when you sign in." We wonder what she meant ?
By now you've probably been contacted by at least five men representing Phi Sig and their big Jazz Concert. Phil Mosier and his boys are
really pushing the tickets and we're behind them (if that means anything). Bobby Baird and his Continentals promise a real evening of
Dixieland. Don't miss it!
Mr. and Mrs. Jack Bushey (Barb Kiene) are at home at 108 N . Elmer
Avenue, Sayre... with automatic washers, dryers, and the works ...
Overheard Patty Hawk telling Wes Atkins that she wouldn't call her
dog Wesley ? ? ? ... and then Frances Guido was telling Mr. J>eVoe that
her father raises hounds, while she sat there in a nice white collar...
but she never growls or barks in public... and Lynda FJrmstone had a
real birthday brawl... and Don. MacLean and Bill Kautz found a crack
in the sidewalk on College Hill. They noticed that steam was seeping
through each day at the same time. Immediately they notified National
Geographic of a budding volcano and advised the team that they wanted
the forthcoming mountain to be named in honor of their geology professor... who knows — we might be detouring around Mount Sterling
in order to reach the campus ? ... and from the apartment dwellers
come many amusing stories... like the ones about Sue Osborn who
heard the water on the electric range boiling at a terrific pace. Sue
looked into the boiler with certain doubts... then grabbed a big spoon
and began stirring so that the water wouldn't stick to the boiler. Then,
too, you might enjoy hearing about Sue's can opening experiences.. ask
her about it. After reading the new Olympian we couldn't help wondering about Joe Mazeski's "Conversation With an Ant" ... do you think all
that really happened ? ... and do you think Kerm McMeans walked out
in the sweet young thing he told us about in his story? ... we're inclined
to believe he stayed but didn't care to tell us the rest of the details...
and on the back cover we were glad to see that the House of Hess
emerged as a Tavern... haven't we always called it a Grille in the
past ? ... but what about this Bill Blagbrough with the earphones and
antenna ? ... is he an agent...or just amusing those of us without •
short wave gadgets ? As you may have guessed, scattered through this
incoherence, we have the names of the month.
To mention the Under-Currents in educational trends we're wondering if you noticed the recent headlines regarding the speech made in
Washington, D.C. by a noted West Coast educator saying that the
schools should realize that "sex is here to stay." Yes, on February 25
this startling observation was made before a large group of educators.
We're wondering just what changes they expect to make in current procedures now that their California comrade has enlightened them!
Also along the line of school business we couldn't help but wonder
if the aim of the school wasn't pretty well expressed in the philosophy
of Life magazine when Henry It. Luce announced just twenty years ago
that his new magazine hoped "To see life, to see the world; to eyewitness great events; to watch the faces of the poor and the gestures of
the proud ; to see strange things—machines, armies, multitudes, shadows in the j ungle and on the moon ; to see man's work—his paintings,
towers and discoveries; to see things thousands of miles away, things
hidden behind walls and within rooms, things dangerous to come to; the
women that men love and many children ; to see and take pleasure an
seeing; to see and to be instructed... to see and to be shown..." Is this
perchance what we hope to do ?
In a lighter vein . . . did you hear about our confused campus radical
who exclaimed, "Thank God I'm an atheist."
And now a Thought For Today... "Love Your Enemies — It Will
Drive Them Nuts."

Robert Aura Smith ,
Known Lecturer ,
To Visit BSTC
Robert Aura Smith, political
scientist, author, educator, lecturer, is known among American lecturers as the "campus visitor ". He
will visit our campus on March 19
to lecture on the "Battle for Asia"
in the regular assembly prgram.
Born in Denver . Colorad o, Mr.
Smith attended such education institutions as Ohio Wesleyan Univer sity , Ohio , Rhodes Scholar, and
Oxford University. He has taught
English and political science at
Drake University, Evansville College, Barnard College, and Yale
University.
Smith has done much work on
some of the nations top newspapers
and radio networks. He is a recognized lecturer, magazine, and book
writer. His writings are concerned
primarily with problems in the
Far East.
Mr. Smith, unlike many speakers , uses maps and a blackboard
to help explain his talks — never
referring to notes. A political science teacher from a campus which
Smith recently visited, reported:
"I have j ust seen the greatest
demonstration of honest, intellectual, virtuosity that has ever been
on this campus."
Stan Freeman
To Appear on
Carver Stage
Stan Freeman, piano virtuoso
and musical satirist, will perform
during the assembly period on
March 28. 1957. Mr. Freeman is a
radio, television, and recording
star whose versatility, wit, and
mastery of the keyboard have won
international acclaim. His repertoire will cover piano interpretations, musical stories, show tunes,
and musical satires on numerous
phases of the American musical
scene.
Freeman made his first mark in
the musical world as a serious
musician. While serving in the
army, Freeman was introduced to
popular music which marked the
beginning of his diversified musical
style. He played with many orchestras and bands, among them the
Glenn Miller Army Band. Not forsaking his first love of the classics,
Freeman docs solo performances
with the New York Philharmonic
and Buffalo Symphony Orchestra.
In addition to shows of his own, he
has appeared as a guest on such
shows as the Kate Smith Hour,
the Steve Allen Show, and This
is Show Business.

New Dining Hall and Cafeteria
Will Be Opened after Easter
Students going to and from classes for the past several months have
watched the erection of the new dining hall and cafeteria. Now at last,
Dr. Andruss feels sure that we will be eating in the new building, which
is equipped to serve over 1000 people, after Easter. The main dining rooni
will seat 800-900 students and the portico, over 100 guests.

On March 21, formal initiation
will be held for Phi Sigma Pi members. This semester there are nine
pledgees to the fraternity. They
are: John Valania, Ronald Romig,
Bernard O'Brien, Allan Nuss, Wilbur Heldt, Michael Marcinka, Gerald Du nmoyer, and Edward Brower.
To become a member of Phi Sigma Pi, one must be nominated by
a member, have an accumulative
1.5 average, and endure the rigors
of pledge week.
Pledge week was under the
supervision of Joseph Butz, Carl
Janetka, and C. J. Pentzas. It began on Monday, March 11 and will
continue until Saturday, March 16.
General customs f or the week
included: wearing of shirt and tie
with suit or sport coat, pu rple and
gold ribbons, and the fraternity insigni a emblazoned on the pledgees
foreheads' with lipstick.
Un Monday tne Jfieagees were
asked questions on their fraternity
booklet. They also spent the day
walking to classes — backwards.
After dinner Brother Sheridan led
them to the lounge where they
sang the sentimental fraternity
sing, "Brothers Are We."
Tuesday was work day. Their
Spartan-like tasks included carrying books, running errands, polishing shoes, cleaning rooms, and
washing socks.
Wednesday they recited, upon
request , the moving "Teaching is
an Art ," by William Lyon Phelps.
Wednesday was also Serenade
Night.
Thursday was another busy day.
Not only did the Pledgees collect
the laundry of Phi Sigma Pi members ; they also became amateur
artists. Very Bohemian looking
too, in their smocks, paj ama tops,
and bedsheets.
Students going home for the
weekend had a break on Friday,
when Phi Sigma Pi pledgees were
on hand to load their baggage. As
a reward for this good deed the
pledgees were treated to a party
(which they paid for).

One of the main things on everyone's mind right now is
the coming CGA election. (At least it should be. ) Judg ing
by our own limited experience, this has been one of the best
election campaigns we have had for a while. And if this
year's campaign has done nothing else, it has added what is
perhaps a new word to our vocabularies — apathy. And it's
high time, too, that someone has brought to light one of the
biggest and most glaring shortcomings of BSTC students.
We have been too darned unconcerned about college
affairs. We have lulled ourselves into a kind of drowsy
half-sleep. And we have allowed the faculty and administration to dominate the Community Government Association, its duties and its responsibilities. We've grumbled about
ineffectiveness of "stu d en t " government and we have let
our few big ideas remain just that — ideas — because we've
shrugged our shoulders and said, "What's the use. It will The Veep Speaks

The Life of a Belt
by BOB STEINItUCK
Did you ever think of how it would feel to hold up a pair of pants
all day long? It must be a terrible strain on that little band of leather
that is nowadays called a "belt". Of course, some belts have to, shall
we say, overcome obstacles.
These necessary particles of clothing have an extra hard j ob during
meal-time. They must learn how to expand and contract as the need
calls tor it. Of course, if the person wearing the belt eats too much, the
belt's life immediately comes to an abrupt end. The buckle will bend, the
belt hole will tear out, and only heaven knows what else will happen.
At any rate the little belt—brown, blue, grey, black, poka-dottcd, or
what have you—will be dead. He will be dead fighting vainly for your
horizontal cause.
Hardly anyone realizes it, but your belt dedicates his entire life to
you, his owner. So why don't you guard, guide, and protect him ? Don't
eat so much! Please!
on March 21. Get out and vote for
the candidates of your choice. Remember, they are the ones who
represent you behind those closed
doors of Room L.

by AL MILES
For the few of us that might read a novel primarily to become familiar with the plot, this novel appears to be just another love story in
which the heroine "lives happily ever after". The heroine in this case
is Marjorie Morgenstern, a beautiful Jewish girl who at seventeen decides to change her name to Morningstar and become a Broadway
actress. The hero (?), Noel Airman, is a remakably talented , Bohemiantype character whom Marjorie meets at a summer camp where she has
gone to seek a start in her acting career. They fall desperately in love.
The plot is mainly concerned with their love affair which blazes a trail
of passion from the Adirondacks to Broadway to Paris. Marj ories' strict
Jewish background, however, keeps her from being able to adapt herself to Noel's somewhat unusual life. The affair and the novel end with
her marriage to a New York lawyer.
On the surface this sounds like a very routine love story, but Wouk
has taken this mediocre plot and turned it into one of our better contemporary novels. In it he has embodied one of the dilemmas facing all
of Am erica's youth—conformity.
Noel Airman is a non-conformist whose- only attempt at conformity
turns out unsuccessfully. His life is filled with love affairs, sparkling
conversation, and a general withdrawal from bourgeois practices. He
sneers at respectability and security and refers to "nice" girls as
omi.ic.y s .
"Shirley" is the epitome of middleclass life. She conform to the patterns of society. She married into a respectable life in some quiet suburb
—a life so many of us seek. "Shirley ", in short, represents conformity.
Wouk handles the problem skillfully. Through his pen, we are able to
see the futility of Noel's life—hi s aimless wanderings over continents,
through torrid love affairs, and through philosophy and religion.
The chapter in which Marjo rie marries her "respectable lawyer"
might aptly be termed the "clincher". In it, Wouk tells us that Shirley's
way of life is perhaps not best, but at least necessary. This then consitutes the problem. What is best ? Shall we do what is necessary or
what we consider best ? Perhaps Wouk may be able to help you decide.
LINK TO THE PAST , by M th ormf on
The oldest link BSTC has with its past is probably Dean Emeritus
W. B. Sutliff. Dean Sutliff , a former Dean of Instruction, first came to
the campus of Bloomsburg State Normal School as a student in the
spring of 1889. After leaving BSNS he went to Lafayette College where
he obtained his Masters degree in 1898. That summer he was married
and both he and his wife came to Bloomsburg's campus to teach. Mrs.
Sutliff taught music and Dean Sutliff taught a variety of subjects that
first year. In 1899 he joined the mathematics department.
•Dean Sutliff organized the first summer school in 1919. This program
became necessary when the state increased teaching requirements. In
1921 he succeeded Dr. Fisher as Dean of Instruction.
Many students are fainiliar with Dean Sutliff not only because he
lives across the street from the College, but also because some of the
poetry which he writes has appeared in previous years in the Maroon
and Gold. Before his retirement in 1937 he contributed poetry to the
college newspaper using the mysterious letter "Q" as his signature.
Miss Andrews, his secretary, collected these poems and the Alumni
Association presented him with a bound copy upon his resignation. Most
of Dean Su tliff' s poems concern campus points of interest. A good example is the one below.

to injuries which cost us our first two games. After vacation, however,
the Shellymen came back, only to be halted by the mighty Mauraders of

Harry Hughes To
Close Wrestling
Care er at BSTC
Although Harry Hughes is well
known at BSTC as a first rate
football player, he will also be
remembered as a first rate wrestler. As a heavyweight, he has established a formidable record with
the Huskies.
Harry came to BSTC from Williamsport High School where he
starred in football and wrestling.
While in high school, he placed 2nd
in the YMCA tournament.
Here at Bloomsburg he placed
second in the STC tournament this
year and came in third last year.
Of course . Harry has had many
exciting moments as a wrestler,
but he says his greatest thrills
were a twelve-second pin while in
high school and a twenty-second
pin in the STC tournament last
year. He lists his toughest opponents as Ken Ober and Ehvood
Reese.
Harry 's maj or fields at BSTC
are social studies and geography.
At the present he is student teach ing at Bloomsburg High School.
He also enj oys bowling and fishing.
After receiving his diploma in
May, Harry plans on a teaching
career.

MANY, MANY MOONS AGO
What CGA Means to Me
As a Candidate
by RAY HARGREAVES
j
I
Many many moons ago, Chief Sittum Kautz of the Huskonian tribe ;
located on a hill overlooking the Susquehanna River decided the time
had come for him to move on to better hunting grounds. This created i
problem — Who was to take his place ?
Many pow wows were held and many peace pipes smoked while th(
Indian counsel narrowed the list of eligible young braves to two, Lu
hooha and Hirayawatha. These were the hippest braves of the tribe anc
had the largest collections of college professors' scalps. To prove theii
worthiness, these young braves had to do such feats as hew water-tigh'
canoes out of old, used telegraph poles, lead squirrel expeditions througt
the campus wilderness, and grow maize in the window boxes outsidf
their tepees.
People off the reservation thought the Huskonians would make theii
final choice of a new leader by his war paint, headdress, and ability t(
shout above the torn toms. However, the Huskonians were an intelligent
group of Indians and showed they knew how to pick a good leader. The};
realized that, while both braves were strong and courageous and hare
worekrs, Hirayawatha was better at diplomatically counselling with th>
"higher-up chiefs".
The next year proved to be a successful, prosperous one, and the
Huskonians enjoyed better benefits than ever. Every Wednesday night
after the water skiing matches in Centennial pool, Calypso parties wen
held. To provide entertainment for their wee-end pow wows, the chief )
counsel had such famous visiting tribesmen as Heap Big Fats Domino i
Daniel's grandson, Pat Boone; and Pocahantas Mansfield , come to th(
Huskonian village. They even invited Elvis, but he was busy on th<
warpath and couldn't appear. Pre-fab teepees were provided for all rev
Indian families and after three years they were furnished with venetlai
blinds. Never had any Indian village showed such progress as this on
,
did under the capable leadership of Hirayawatha.

VOTE RAY FOR CGA
by LU NATTER
CGA stands for Community Government Association. Technically,
the community is our college campus. The government is an agent of
the community which makes rules and policies; the association, of
course, is the student body, faculty, and the administration functionin g
as a unit . Actually everyone of us is a member — a member in good
standing. College Council — the organization we usually think of when
we mention CGA — is an important, but small representative group
which carries out the functions of the larger organization, your CGA.
I was not thinking of that small group, alone, when I decided to ask
you to elect me to the office of President. What was in my mind, and
still i s, covers a much larger area. I want to work for the whole college.
The policies and discussions arising from meetings of College Council
affect every person connected with any phase of life here.
CGA is not a static or dormant body — it is dynamic. It moves and
changes with the times. College Council must be composed of representatives who are equipped to go forward with it. Progress on a college
campus is important, for it is on these campuses that men and women
are preparing to become representatives of a far more important and
dynamic organization — a nation.
The qualities of leadership are not measured in terms of IQ, Kuder
preference tests, or other such obj ective weights and measures. Instead,
we should think of more subjective qualities — enthusiasm, sincerity,
character, and deep, true feeling for the welfare of BSTC. It takes all
this and more. (The more meaning HEART) Yes, it takes heart to figh t
for what is best for the thing that means so much to you. If you cannot
do it yourself at least elect to xpur representative group someone to
fight for you. You may not realize it now, but good old Bloomsburg
means a lot to you, just as it does to me.

MAE BUSH
Funera l serv i ces were h eld f or
Mae Bush, a student here at BSTC,
last Monday night in the Husky
Lounge. Mae died tragically of a
broken heart following the death
of her pet dog Charlie.
Pallbearers were Don Coffman
and Ray Seitz of the Maroon and
Gold staff , Stiney Lumpczyk, Herman Hinksonworth, Percival VanF loot , and Harve y H . Applepress.
Miss Marianne Angradi provided
music f or th e serv ice, and Ginny
Hardy and Sandy McBride led the
congre gation , in cheers .
The epitaph on her tombstone
says — "She was a good girl, but
she couldn 't say no."
. . . ^k^ ^
We're wondering how many fellows saw the luscious prospective
student wander into the lounge last week. From our vantage point . . .
"Let's have lots of Basketball Tournaments if they bring such visitors."
Without a doubt . . . .
She
This.
Was
Like
The
At

Look

Of
Girl
Did you hear about the time Jim Gustavo came home from third grade
with tears in his eyes ? His Mother tenderly asked him what had happened and between sobs Jimmy told her that some boy had called him
a,sissy. Mrs. Gustave asked Jim what happened next. Jim's reply...."I
hit him with my purse."
. And then while we were standing by the post office last night we
heard one coed tell the other, "If you write illegibly when you sign out,
it won't be so obvious when you sign in." We wonder what she meant ?
By now you've probably been contacted by at least five men representing Phi Sig and their big Jazz Concert. Phil Mosier and his boys are
really pushing the tickets and we're behind them (if that means anything). Bobby Baird and his Continentals promise a real evening of
Dixieland. Don't miss it!
Mr. and Mrs. Jack Bushey (Barb Kiene) are at home at 108 N . Elmer
Avenue, Sayre... with automatic washers, dryers, and the works ...
Overheard Patty Hawk telling Wes Atkins that she wouldn't call her
dog Wesley ? ? ? ... and then Frances Guido was telling Mr. J>eVoe that
her father raises hounds, while she sat there in a nice white collar...
but she never growls or barks in public... and Lynda FJrmstone had a
real birthday brawl... and Don. MacLean and Bill Kautz found a crack
in the sidewalk on College Hill. They noticed that steam was seeping
through each day at the same time. Immediately they notified National
Geographic of a budding volcano and advised the team that they wanted
the forthcoming mountain to be named in honor of their geology professor... who knows — we might be detouring around Mount Sterling
in order to reach the campus ? ... and from the apartment dwellers
come many amusing stories... like the ones about Sue Osborn who
heard the water on the electric range boiling at a terrific pace. Sue
looked into the boiler with certain doubts... then grabbed a big spoon
and began stirring so that the water wouldn't stick to the boiler. Then,
too, you might enjoy hearing about Sue's can opening experiences.. ask
her about it. After reading the new Olympian we couldn't help wondering about Joe Mazeski's "Conversation With an Ant" ... do you think all
that really happened ? ... and do you think Kerm McMeans walked out
in the sweet young thing he told us about in his story? ... we're inclined
to believe he stayed but didn't care to tell us the rest of the details...
and on the back cover we were glad to see that the House of Hess
emerged as a Tavern... haven't we always called it a Grille in the
past ? ... but what about this Bill Blagbrough with the earphones and
antenna ? ... is he an agent...or just amusing those of us without •
short wave gadgets ? As you may have guessed, scattered through this
incoherence, we have the names of the month.
To mention the Under-Currents in educational trends we're wondering if you noticed the recent headlines regarding the speech made in
Washington, D.C. by a noted West Coast educator saying that the
schools should realize that "sex is here to stay." Yes, on February 25
this startling observation was made before a large group of educators.
We're wondering just what changes they expect to make in current procedures now that their California comrade has enlightened them!
Also along the line of school business we couldn't help but wonder
if the aim of the school wasn't pretty well expressed in the philosophy
of Life magazine when Henry It. Luce announced just twenty years ago
that his new magazine hoped "To see life, to see the world; to eyewitness great events; to watch the faces of the poor and the gestures of
the proud ; to see strange things—machines, armies, multitudes, shadows in the j ungle and on the moon ; to see man's work—his paintings,
towers and discoveries; to see things thousands of miles away, things
hidden behind walls and within rooms, things dangerous to come to; the
women that men love and many children ; to see and take pleasure an
seeing; to see and to be instructed... to see and to be shown..." Is this
perchance what we hope to do ?
In a lighter vein . . . did you hear about our confused campus radical
who exclaimed, "Thank God I'm an atheist."
And now a Thought For Today... "Love Your Enemies — It Will
Drive Them Nuts."
