1957 Obiter To
Arrive May 18

With graduation just around the
corner, BSTC students are awaiting the arrival of the 1957 Obiter.
This year 's book, according to Sue
Osborn, Editor, promises to be as
outstanding as those of the past.
Members of the staff hope that the
students will enj oy reading the Obiter and that in years to come the
book will continue to be a source
of pleasant memories of their college days.
The book this year will contain
the usual number of pages; however, the layout will be somewhat
different. The Obiter is divided into seven sections , subtitled athletics, clubs, organizations, seniors,
etc. Due to the work of the advertizing staff , who succeeded in collecting $200 more than their estimated quota , all books will have a
blue-gray padded cover.
Miss Osborn also expressed the
wish that everyone enjoy s the book
as she has enj oyed working on it.
She stated also her appreciation
and gratitude to all the department heads and staff members for

BSTC Student Writes
For National Magazine

Carol Green is putting Bloomsburg on the map. Thanks to her
efforts, BSTC has been called to
the attention of millions of readers
of the m agaz ine , Good Housekeeping.
Carol , a freshm an stu dent fro m
Williamsport, is a "dateline " correspondent for that publication.
She contributes articles to that
section of the magazine which reports on the new and unique fads
in dress or speech, or any other
action adopted by the young people in high schools and colleges
throughout the nation.
Carol has been writing for Good
Housekeeping for three years. She
first became acquainted with the
occupation through a friend working at the magazine. Carol was
then a student at Williamsport
High. For her contributions she receives $35.00 per month. Since she
has come to BSTC, Carol has continued to write and contributes
articles every month which may or
may not be published in the magazine.
She has recently reported on the
"Destin a tion Whe el" which many
of the Waller Hall girls have
pinned to their doors. The "Whe el "
is a device employed by the girls
to tell where they have gone to
make their location easier. She has
also reported on the unique method
the girls are using to carry their
beauty articles to the shower
room. They use decorated sand
buckets for convenience.
Carol would like to continue
writing as long as she is at BSTC.
She is very much interested in any
new or novel habits at BSTC. Students knowing of any new fad
should report to Carol.

STILL BETTER

»>

Earlier this week in assembly President Andruss discussed and explained several BSTC plans for the future. Until then , many of us
were in the dark about proposed improvements and additions and the
procedures involved in obtaining them. The President's talk was very
interesting and informative to most of us. And we can't help commenting that Dr. Andruss should certainl y be given the credit due him for
working continuousl y to make Bloomsburg better , and still better. He
certainl y doesn't allow the State of Pennsylvania to forget about us.
He never lets up.
Since ours is a state-supported school , the medium for getting improvements is, of course, the state legislature. Ri ght now there are a
number of bills before committees of the General Assembly which
directly affect BSTC. We'll try to give a brief account of several of
them.
Bloomsburg State College

One bill we have heard about before may drop the word "Teachers"
from the name of our college. House Bill No. 967, if enacted as it is
now wr itten, would change the names of all Pennsylvania teachers
colleges (dropping "Teachers") without^ altering the nature of these
institutions.
It is interesting to note that all four of the Republican representatives
sponsoring the bill are from teachers college towns — William G.
Buchanan , Indiana ; Clarence Stoner , Shermans Town (Shippensburg) ; Paige Varner , Clarion; Joseph Ujohar , Phoenixsville.
The bill was referred to the Committee on Education , March 27.
As far as we know, it is still before that committee.
No Graduate Study

Senate Bill No. 570, dated April 8, reads : "No funds of the Commonwealth of Pennsy lvania shall be used to either establish or maintain a program of graduate education at a State Teacher's College as
long as a shortage of teachers exists. The General Assembly shall determine when the supp ly of teachers . . . is adequate."
Note that this bill is being introduced at a time when the Master's
Degree is becoming increasingly important in obtaining g;ood teaching
positions, and, ironically, when the State is proposing that prospective
teachers -need broader , lengthier educations in order to raise the standards of the profession.
College Civil Service

The Committee on State Government is now considering Senate Bill
No. 604, which would place various college emp loyees under civil set*
vice. This would include classified and unclassified services, the unclassified taking in officers and members of teaching staffs, student employees on less than half-time pay basis, research assistants of State
Teachers Colleges and the Pennsy lvania State University.
The proposed law is part of a program intended to raise the standards of college employees (which includes teachers) and give them
better salaries and working conditions.

FISH ORf FOWL?

Students resent being treated like children. But sometimes it is very
difficult to treat them any other way.
Children need to be told many times to behave in a certain manner.
They must be watched and perhaps disciplined before they understand

COMPREHENSIVE CAMPUS PLAN
It is expected tlilat the enrollment in September, 1957, will be double
that of pre-war 1937. Further increases in light of the pressure of increasing- college populations, appropriations from the State, and income
from student fees, along with proposed building programs, requires careful planning for at least the next two decades.
The 1955 Session of the Legislature authorized the General State
Authority to Issue additional bonds. Of the proceeds, $1,850,000, would
be used to construct a Men's Dormitory, capacity 200, and a Classroom
Building, along with a provision for a comprehensive campus plan to
locate all future buildings, accompanied by a survey of existing utility
lines. Additions will have to be made to this sum to provide for equipment and dormitory furniture.
The present estimate of enrollment for 1970 is 2,000. The division of
this number into resident and non-resident students will determine the
dormitory capacity, which has been estimated to be from 1,800 to 1,500.
If additional land is not purchased, it may be necessary to raze certain existing structures. In fact, North Hall is to be demolished when
the second New Men's Dormitory is constructed.
The architects for the two new buildings already approved are John
A. Schell, Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania, New Classroom Building, and L. P.
Kookeii and Company, New Oxford, Pennsylvania, Men's Dormitory. Mr.
Schell is also drawing the Comprehensive Campus Plans and making the
Utility Line Survey.

COLLEGE COMMONS

The new dining room will be put into operation after the 1957 Easter
vacation. The main dining room space of 9,800 square feet will seat from
800 to 900. Two cafeteria, lines will serve students at the rate of 20 per
minute. The foyer will be used from time to time to seat parties of 100,
and the outside patio running the full length, 140 feet, of the building,
will accommodate a like number when weather permits outdoor food
service. Thus, the over-all seating capacity for such events as Alumni
Day will be 1,000 or more. Over $70,000 has been spent on kitchen equip'
ment, refrigeration, and disposal equipment.
All college stores, such as cannedfood , plumbing, electrical, and building supplies will be centralized in two basement areas in this building.
An underground passage will connect the College Commons with the
Lobby of Waller Hall, so that women students may go from the dormitory to their meals without going outside the connecting buildings.
FUTURE PLANS
As the Comprehensive Campus Plan is developed, announcements will
be made to friends and Alumni of Bloomsburg of the location of the
projected buildings. However, it is expected that' the Legislature, now
in Session, will take such action as is necessary to make possible the
approval of the construction of a New Auditorium of sufficient size to
accommodate the estimated enrollment in 1970.
If interested Alumni wish to help their Alma Mater, they should write
to their Representatives and Senators of the Legislature to the effect
that increased (appropriations and more buildings are necessary if we
are going to have a Bigger and Better Bloomsburg.

Coach

TRACK — Now that old man winter has given up, we find that our
spring sports campaign is in full swing. After several long, hard weatherhindered weeks of practice, Coach Harold B. Shelly took his thin-clads
to Kutztown State Teachers College on Saturday, April 13. Although
hindered with lack of practicing weather, our tracksters gained an impressive 102-17 victory.
First victories are impressive; however, this romping victory over
Kutztown should not make us lift our heads high over the rest of the
conference. Our sister institution is in the process of beginning a track
squad. There is no reason, however , for taking anything away from our
track squad or from Coach Shelly. Eddie Watts, Charlie Lougherty, Ray
Thayer, and Carl Sweet proved their abilities and will undoubtedly
spark the squad for the remaining tilts. The next track activity will be
the Penn Relays.

We wonder how many times the ignorant behavior of some ignorant
students in assembl y will have to be discussed before the offending persons will wake up and understand the situation. It has been suggested
that proctors patrol the auditorium and whallop the knuckles of little
stray lambs who forget their manners. Wouldn 't that be an insult to
intelligent , mature college students!
And yet this is not as facetious as it sounds. Something must be done.

The purpose of the election committee is to hold all all-college
elections of the College Community. It has become the custom to
conduct the final CGA election in
the manner of the county political
elections in order that our students
may learn the procedure that is
used. The official blanks, voter
lis t s, voting booths, and ballot box
are provided by the Columbia
County Election Board. A voting
machine is furnished by the Luzerne County Election Board.
The day of the election the
tables and other materials must
be gathered together and set up
outside the Husky Lounge. All
these materials such as tables,
ballots, pencils must be requisitioned before hand so that they
will be on hand when needed. At
4:00 P.M. the polls close and the
committee gathers in the council
office to count the votes. The results are approved by the election
committee advisors and then posted for the College Community. The
ballots are returned to Mrs. Knight
in the President' s office for safe
keeping.
All the people serving on this
committee must help in the running of these elections, by working
on their free periods on the day
of the election and then at the
close of the elections to count the
votes.
