CARLISLE, PA. — A study project
to determine the characteristics of
a good college has been set up by
the Dickinson College Chapter of
the American Assoc. of University
Professors. Three committees were
established to investigate facts
about individual areas of college
life and to report their findings and
recommendations. The three divisions set up for investigation by the
AAUP are faculty, students, and
library .
The study was prompted by an
article by Chester Manly in the
Chicago Tribune last spring, in
which, according to Manly, were
listed the forty best institutions of
higher learning in the United
States.
ST. CHARLES, MO. — With the
idea of developing mature women
who will be qualified as able community leaders and well equipped
family heads, Lindenwood College
has introduced a family life curriculum this year. A combined effort
of the home economics, sociology,
and psychology departments, the
course is off ered f ov students who
have no real career ideas but want
an education that is not entirely
vocational.
Requiring a majo r in sociology
and a minor in home economics, the
course is broadly based around
f amily life and is valuable either
to a housewife with children or to
a student who wants to take graduate work in social service or home
economics. The course also provides a firm foundation for professional fields, according to W.M.
Beattie, professor of sociology.
Hobo King Rules
In Husky j ungle
Tonight , from 8:30 t o 11:00 , the
Husky Lounge will be open for
dancing to all Hobos desiring an
evening of f un. Sport clothes (jeans
and slacks included) will be in
order, and everyone should wear
patches.
Dancing will be to records and a
highligh t of the evening will be the
choosing of a Hobo King to reign
over the festiviti es. The picking of
the King will be based on seeking
out the most authentic looking Hobo in attendance.
The aff air is being sponsored by
the Social Recreation Committee
of which Pam Fox and Raydel Radzai are the chairmen. The dance
will be the last of this semester ,
and all who attend can be assured
of a f un-packed evening.
Annual Fashion
Show Plans Made
On March 20 the annual Bloomsburg Fashion Show will be held in
Carver Hall Auditorium. The Fashion Show which had previously
been under the direction of Mr.
Henrie is now under the direction
of Mrs. Margaret McCern. The art
work for the show will be handled
by Mr, Ulmer and Mrs. Beeman.
The show usually lasted about
two hours, however , this y ear's
show shall be approximately a halfhour shorter. As in the past, merchants from the town of Bloomsburg will provide the clothes for
the performance.
The new models have not been
selected, but there was a large
number at tryouts and the old
models are in the process of training the girls in correct posture,
poise and other formalities necessary to become a good model. Eliminations are also being conducted
and the new models shall be announced at a future date.
The co-ordinator for the show is
Mary Grace with Nancy Herman
acting as her assistant. The old
models are: Carol Ely, Nancy Herman , Sally Riefenstahl, Su san
Heck m an , Alice Shaw, Sandy Lewis Sandy Clark, Lois Carpenter,
Peggy Markovci, Mary Heatly,
Joan D alton , Suzie Loughery, and
Bobbie Creamer.
Girl Scout Camp Jobs
College girls interested in an expense-free summer combining professional preparation with outdoor
living shuld call the nearest Girl
Scout office for information on
available openings in Girl Scout
camps. Hundreds of counselors over
eighteen years old are needed to
assist in operating the many Girl
Scout camps located throughout
the country .
Salaries vary with the assignment and the candidates previous
experience, tr aining, and qualifications. Depending on the length of
the camp season and the location
of the camp, laundry and travel expenses may be included. A basic
pre-camp training session of about
five days duration is provided for
all staff members.
Many schools allow field work
credit for Girl Scout camp jobs, toward degrees in such subj ects as

Poor Roongo III. We arc under the impression that just about
everyone loved dogs — especially sentimental , idealistic college students.
It would be certainl y a pity if Bloomsburg were to lose its beautiful
Husk y mascot simply because the canine couldn 't find a new master.
If the Alumni Association cannot , or will not , continue bearing the
costs of her maintenance , we should think that some arrangements
could be — and should be — made for her to remain a part of our
college tradition.
Many students are concerned over the threat of losing the affectionate , frisk y pup. And ri ghtly so. She is no mere pet; indeed, as the
symbol of the school's athletic teams , she adds color and ritual to
rn11 po"f > nrH\/ifi pc
The Husk y is as much a part of the name Bloomsburg as the Alma
Mater, the Maroon and Gold Colors (from which the name Roongo
was derived), the tower of Carver Hall, Ivy Day, or any of the other
few BSTC traditions. These traditions may not aid students in attaining superior grades, but they are important to any college in that
they help arouse within the students a feeling of pride and unity —
esprit de corps , so to speak.
We'd like to see Roongo owned and supported by the entire school
through the Community Government funds. In this way, sh e woul d
be truly a college mascot, a college symbol. And cost of the dog's upkeep would hardly overburden the CGA budget — after all just how
much can one Husky eat?
Of course, the suggestion is that some campus organization take
Roongo; although this would be a fine idea (in theory ) for any club
or fraternity, no such organiaation would be able to care for her
over a long period of time without some added source of funds.
Clearly, either CGA should provide for the mascot in its budget,
or any new master organization should receive an extra allocation
from that budget.
No matter how the fate of the homeless Husky is decided , we shudder to think that the school should even consider allowing Roongo
to be sold. It would be foolish and heartless. Poor helpless cre ature,
anyway.
It would dent many a heart to see Roongo shipped out to parts
unknown. She is our pet, our mascot — the "Bloomsburg Husk ies"
would be a sham without her.
A toy drive sponsored by Kappa
Delta Pi was climaxed the evening
of December 12 at a dance in Husky
Lounge given by the Social Recreation Committee. The admission to
the dance was one toy or stuffed
animal from each student. Donations were also made by Blooms-

One of the highlights of the eve-

Evidence of the popularity of the

The Old Philosopher
Hello there, folks. Welcome back to your "refuge on the hill. " Glad
to see everyone had an "ivy" Christmas. Crew neck sweaters and sneakers are more prominent than ever. And how do you like some of the
experiences you 've heard from your fellow students ? They make Peyton
Place sound like a Sunday School lesson.
You say you live near Girardville and anytime you wanted to see
Amberlavage and Bonenburger you went to Marrone 's? (A very respectable prizza house). Strange, all that pizza and no added pounds.
And speaking of Amberlavage, Waller Hall is giving her a citation for
bravery above and beyond the call of duty — she extinguished a fire
in the press room on the second floor all by her little ole self.
You say you 're wondering who Glenn Reed is talking abput when he
says, "Is this the face that sank a thousand ships?" And Dean Hoch
says he'll never make up schedules while watching the bowl games ?
Incidentally, friends, we are merely writing this column as practice in
anticipation of Dr. Russell's Advanced Composition course .
You say your names are Betty Boop and Dr. DeVoe and you have
resolved to learn how to ice skate before the New Year progresses too
far? And what Sophomore girl bought her boyfriend a car battery for
Chrismas — tired of pushing, honey ?
You say your name is Delores Regan and you resolved to break all
the resolutions yo u made ? And Pat Antonio resolves not to yell "Whale
Ho " at Don Ker this year ? By the way, was television wonderful over
the holidays! All those great westerns resulted in a nation of asthma
victims with saddle bruises.
You say your nam e is Don Morgan and you 've been pinned by Ellen
Drumtra — she gave you her Elvis Presley button ? And we've noticed
the Waffle Grille got new menus from Santa — same old food at the
same prices. Shades of College Commons! Since Cap Parry got his
schedule for next semester, he 's decided to give up his pipe and smoke
cigars. Speaking of schedules, Gary Egl i believes Bill Hess made up his
roommate's schedule; nothing before 10 a.m. every day. Bob Corrigan
say s he didn 't enj oy the movie, The Ten Commandments as much as he
did the Book.
Rumors Around Campus : (yours , not ours.)
Roongo will be sold... Dr. Balhke will teach French next year...
Miss Mettler and Mrs. Miller didn ' take their Carribbean cruise, but sat

You say you'd like to see someone outdo Drew Pearson 's percentage
of correct predictions thi s year ? Well , friends, let' s see Mr. Pearson outdo us. We predict : The College Book Store will sell books next semester;
Bloomsburg will have a summer school this year; Business Education
will not be dropped at this school; President Andruss will not resign
because of ill health; College Commons will continue serving three meals
a day ; a flu epidemic will not close the school ; the Freshmen will have
a dance next semester; and most of the Seniors will graduate in May.
We sincerely believe we can beter Mr. Pearson 's 83 per cent correct
predi ctions.
You say you overheard Mr. Buckingham talking with John Foster
D u lle s on the phone , and Mr. Dulles refused to talk at one of our assemblies on air travel ? How about Harry Truman talking on music,
piano, or voice ?
You say you 've been listening to your fellow students' ideas for things
really nee4ed in 1958: An authentic Maroon and Gold backscratcher; an
automatic card shuffler for the Husky Lounge ; a machine to bring relief
f rom a h angov er before yo ur eight o 'clock class ; a shorthand machine
for homework assignments ; ash trays in classrooms ( burn your cuffs
lately ?) ; a uniform shade of peroxide; smaller textbooks; new TV
shows; a new men's dorm ; snow for a winter sports party ; someone or
something to replace Lawrence Welk. Of course, frie n d s, we have more,
but we 've decided to start the New Year off right — no complaining, as
you 've probably noticed.
We don't want to spend 1958 boring you all at once — we'll do it over
a period of time. May we leave you with this thought: Don 't do what
you want to do; do what you should.
And Remember : It's not as bad as it seems, so lift your head up high
and take a walk in the sun and say never give up that , ship! Smile,
Smile , Smile!
Yuletide Engagements
It looks as if Santa had a rival over the Christmas holidays. Cupid
seemed to visit almost as many Bloomsburg students as did that famed

.. SPORTS HI-LITES .. Huskies
. by Jim Wagner
It 's about that time of the basketball season when all of us have or
should have had an opportunity to see the BSTC Huskies in action After seeing them , we evaluate ihe team in our own different ways, and
then pass judgment as to whether or not the iorthcoming campaign will
be a successr ul one tor those who saw the game with Cheyney S'i'C, the
opinion was that* the prospects look rather discouraging. However , the
game with Cheyney did show some promising things. True, they did
shoot a bit wildly at times, but every team has those games where
inm& a j usl uwi <- tiii-iv.
To mention a few of the items on the brighter side of our cage ledger,
we find that we have the prospects of a team that will, or should offer
any competition a stiff battle. Before I go any further , perhaps portions
of our poor showing can be credited to the calibre of team we played,
and maybe we, the student body, are expecting too much from the
squad. Jim Gustave, the all around forward, is as good a shot as any
one in the conference, and is a fine team man. Bill Swisher, our high
scoring guard , Bob Boyle, All State Defensive guard , John Shaefer,
versatile pivot man , and high j umping Norm Shutovich, make up as
good a starting five as we can expect.
Coming back to the Cheyney affair , this columnist saw a team that
could move the ball with incredible speed. Most of our opponents will
have us on heigh t, but here is where basketball know-how comes in
handy. Most of our ball players have these hidden senses, such as the
ability to go up for a rebound. A good example of this is Norm Shutovich.
Against Cheyney, Shutovich had a man j umping center who was about
three inches taller than he. However, as you saw , Shutovich controlled
the tap easily and effectively, along with his twelve rebounds throughout the game. The Cheyney contest also revealed the potential for three
good set shots in the persons of Boyle, Swisher and Gustave. A team
with men who can shoot lrom the outside, will force the def ense out,
therefore, making more room for your corner and pivot men to manuever. So, as you can see, we have a team which has many fine assets, and
will loom as a definite threat to the dignity of their opponents.

Displaying plenty of know-how

the Huskies of Bloomsburg State
Teachers moved to their first victory of the season with a 27-13 victory over Shippensburg, bef ore 700
fans at Centennial Gym.
Three Huskies scored their first
pins of the season in the opening
match for the local grappler s whose
only previous experience this season was in the Wilkes College Tournament. Jim Garman, Wal t Fake,
and Jack Chidester each tabbed
falls. Of the three pins, the most
spectacular was a pin by Fake over
Dave Dodson in 2:43 of the second
period. Fake, a freshman , had j ust
escaped from a disadvantageous
position and had taken a 3-0 lead
when the Shippensburg wrestler
threw him back on the mat as they
broke from a neutral position near
the edge of the mat. As Fake walked to the center of the mat with
his back to Dodson, the Shippensburg wrestler made a leap which
missed when Fake turned in time.
The Husky matman again walked
away with his back to Dodson and
again the visiting grappler leaped
across the mat at Fake's back.
This time, Fake turned to catch
Dodson almost in mid-air with a
cross-body hold and pressed Dodson to the mat, holding him there
for forty-five seconds before the
pin was completed.
Bobby Rohm, regular 157 pound
battler for the Huskies, scored a
tremendous upset over Maurice
Stidfole in the 191 pound match by
n 7-0 nnurtt.
The quickest fall of the night
came in the unlimited weight when
Frank Prusch was pinned by 265
pound John Habice in fifty-six seconds of the first period. Prusch had
scored a take down over the immense Shippensburg grappler , only
to have Habice reverse him seconds
later and score the fall. Garman's

Houk Presents
Wrestling Show
On Tuesday, January 7, head
wrestling Coach Russell Houk in
the regular Tuesday assembly presented a program concerning wrestling. Mr. Houk presented this program to familiarize the student
body with the various procedures
and rules governing the sport in
order that Husky rooters could enjoy wrestlinp more thoroughly.
Dick R im ple, Bob Asby, Bob
Rohm , and Jim Garman demonstrated the various ways in which
a wrestler may gain individual
points and team points. Coach
Houk explained the scoring summary and had the boys illustrate
several illegal holds and technical
violations. In conclusion to the assembly program, two three-minute
meets were held between RimpleGarman and Asby-Rohm in order
to demonstrate in actual practice
some of the things which Mr. Houk
spoke. Coach Houk is very pleased
with the fine showing the squad
made at Wilkes Tournament and
also their crushing victory over
Shippensburg STC.

MILLER
by PRESIDENT ANDRUSS
(A s told to the Student Assembly)
One of the favorite ways to explain our inability to meet the challenge of change is to blame our shortcomings on someone else. A popular indoor sport in America is known as "Passing the Buck." This
means that if someone else had done something, cert ain things wou ldn 't
have happened. Just now we are talking of Russia 's getting the two Sputniks aloft. The Democrats are blaming President Eisenhower for not
making the Armed Forces work together. The Army blames the Navy,
the Navy blames the Army and they both blame the Air Force. The Republicans are blaming the Democrats for not voting for more appropriations for making such research possible.
Someone has said that passing the buck is a form of fear and that in
education there are too many fears. The teachers fear the principal.
The principal fears the superintendent. The superintendent fears the
school directors. The school directors fear the parents. The parents fear
the pupils and the pupils fear nobody. "Buck Passing " is based on fear.
There is fear that the cause of the shortcoming could be laid at your
door. An unknown author tried to put this in verse form. Here is his
poetic effort :
College Professor :
Such rawness in a pupil is a shame
Lack of preparation in the high school is to blame.
High School Teacher
Good Heavens, what crudity ; the boy's a fool
The fault , of cou rse , is with the elementary school.
Elementary Teacher
Kindergarten blockhead! And they call
That preparation. Worse than none at all.
Kindergarten Teachers:
Such lack of training never did I see
What kind of woman the mother must be!
The Mother :
Poor helpless child — he is not to blame
His father's people are all just the same.
Parents and Schools
A two hour visit some evening to a school and the quick skimming
of a classroom while a teacher nervously goes through her paces is
hardly enough to form a j udgment of education.
Wh at Russia has in its schools seems to challenge us from the columns of newspapers, from our radio speakers and television screens;
and now the subj ect of earth satellites has added a new and confusing
dimension to our concern for the future of our children.
All people do not look at schools alike. The father thinks of the tax
bill while the mother thinks of what the children will become as adults.
It has been said that when you educate a woman you are educating the
next generation, whereas, when you educate a man you are helping to
build a career. P.T.A. members are more concerned with schools than
are those who attend Tax Economy Leagues. The latter have accumulated a certain amount of possessions which are subj ect to tax. Someone has said that the "kids are where the money ain't." A legislator,
when voting for increased appropriations for schools may benefit children ; they in turn, will not be able to vote for some years to come. So
the mother and father, the young parent with growing children, the
older generation whose children are no longer at home, the legislator,
the old-age pensioner, the school children and the school teacher all
look at school from different points of view.
If you go to a hospital and have an operation, you may talk about it
to your friends, but you do not pose as a skilled surgeon. If you go to a
court as a witness, or a defendent , or a pl aintiff , you do not come out
with the idea that you can act as your own lawyer. But everyone who
has gone to school feels that he knows something about education, and
he will freely give you an opinion about pupils, past or present, teaching
as a psychological process, and administrative policies in terms of , "It
wasn 't tha t way when I was in school." Somehow time spent in school
seems to generate the attitude that everyone knows something about
education as a process. But visits to the hospital, to the physician's
office , or to the court do not in themselves leave us the impression that
we are skilled in medicine or learned in the law.
The improvement of a human race depends on education and the
next generation of American citizens will show how well we have done
the j ob. We can not answer the questions of tomorrow by the trite repetition of , "It wa sn 't th at way when I went to school."

CARLISLE, PA. — A study project
to determine the characteristics of
a good college has been set up by
the Dickinson College Chapter of
the American Assoc. of University
Professors. Three committees were
established to investigate facts
about individual areas of college
life and to report their findings and
recommendations. The three divisions set up for investigation by the
AAUP are faculty, students, and
library .
The study was prompted by an
article by Chester Manly in the
Chicago Tribune last spring, in
which, according to Manly, were
listed the forty best institutions of
higher learning in the United
States.
ST. CHARLES, MO. — With the
idea of developing mature women
who will be qualified as able community leaders and well equipped
family heads, Lindenwood College
has introduced a family life curriculum this year. A combined effort
of the home economics, sociology,
and psychology departments, the
course is off ered f ov students who
have no real career ideas but want
an education that is not entirely
vocational.
Requiring a majo r in sociology
and a minor in home economics, the
course is broadly based around
f amily life and is valuable either
to a housewife with children or to
a student who wants to take graduate work in social service or home
economics. The course also provides a firm foundation for professional fields, according to W.M.
Beattie, professor of sociology.
Hobo King Rules
In Husky j ungle
Tonight , from 8:30 t o 11:00 , the
Husky Lounge will be open for
dancing to all Hobos desiring an
evening of f un. Sport clothes (jeans
and slacks included) will be in
order, and everyone should wear
patches.
Dancing will be to records and a
highligh t of the evening will be the
choosing of a Hobo King to reign
over the festiviti es. The picking of
the King will be based on seeking
out the most authentic looking Hobo in attendance.
The aff air is being sponsored by
the Social Recreation Committee
of which Pam Fox and Raydel Radzai are the chairmen. The dance
will be the last of this semester ,
and all who attend can be assured
of a f un-packed evening.
Annual Fashion
Show Plans Made
On March 20 the annual Bloomsburg Fashion Show will be held in
Carver Hall Auditorium. The Fashion Show which had previously
been under the direction of Mr.
Henrie is now under the direction
of Mrs. Margaret McCern. The art
work for the show will be handled
by Mr, Ulmer and Mrs. Beeman.
The show usually lasted about
two hours, however , this y ear's
show shall be approximately a halfhour shorter. As in the past, merchants from the town of Bloomsburg will provide the clothes for
the performance.
The new models have not been
selected, but there was a large
number at tryouts and the old
models are in the process of training the girls in correct posture,
poise and other formalities necessary to become a good model. Eliminations are also being conducted
and the new models shall be announced at a future date.
The co-ordinator for the show is
Mary Grace with Nancy Herman
acting as her assistant. The old
models are: Carol Ely, Nancy Herman , Sally Riefenstahl, Su san
Heck m an , Alice Shaw, Sandy Lewis Sandy Clark, Lois Carpenter,
Peggy Markovci, Mary Heatly,
Joan D alton , Suzie Loughery, and
Bobbie Creamer.
Girl Scout Camp Jobs
College girls interested in an expense-free summer combining professional preparation with outdoor
living shuld call the nearest Girl
Scout office for information on
available openings in Girl Scout
camps. Hundreds of counselors over
eighteen years old are needed to
assist in operating the many Girl
Scout camps located throughout
the country .
Salaries vary with the assignment and the candidates previous
experience, tr aining, and qualifications. Depending on the length of
the camp season and the location
of the camp, laundry and travel expenses may be included. A basic
pre-camp training session of about
five days duration is provided for
all staff members.
Many schools allow field work
credit for Girl Scout camp jobs, toward degrees in such subj ects as

Poor Roongo III. We arc under the impression that just about
everyone loved dogs — especially sentimental , idealistic college students.
It would be certainl y a pity if Bloomsburg were to lose its beautiful
Husk y mascot simply because the canine couldn 't find a new master.
If the Alumni Association cannot , or will not , continue bearing the
costs of her maintenance , we should think that some arrangements
could be — and should be — made for her to remain a part of our
college tradition.
Many students are concerned over the threat of losing the affectionate , frisk y pup. And ri ghtly so. She is no mere pet; indeed, as the
symbol of the school's athletic teams , she adds color and ritual to
rn11 po"f > nrH\/ifi pc
The Husk y is as much a part of the name Bloomsburg as the Alma
Mater, the Maroon and Gold Colors (from which the name Roongo
was derived), the tower of Carver Hall, Ivy Day, or any of the other
few BSTC traditions. These traditions may not aid students in attaining superior grades, but they are important to any college in that
they help arouse within the students a feeling of pride and unity —
esprit de corps , so to speak.
We'd like to see Roongo owned and supported by the entire school
through the Community Government funds. In this way, sh e woul d
be truly a college mascot, a college symbol. And cost of the dog's upkeep would hardly overburden the CGA budget — after all just how
much can one Husky eat?
Of course, the suggestion is that some campus organization take
Roongo; although this would be a fine idea (in theory ) for any club
or fraternity, no such organiaation would be able to care for her
over a long period of time without some added source of funds.
Clearly, either CGA should provide for the mascot in its budget,
or any new master organization should receive an extra allocation
from that budget.
No matter how the fate of the homeless Husky is decided , we shudder to think that the school should even consider allowing Roongo
to be sold. It would be foolish and heartless. Poor helpless cre ature,
anyway.
It would dent many a heart to see Roongo shipped out to parts
unknown. She is our pet, our mascot — the "Bloomsburg Husk ies"
would be a sham without her.
A toy drive sponsored by Kappa
Delta Pi was climaxed the evening
of December 12 at a dance in Husky
Lounge given by the Social Recreation Committee. The admission to
the dance was one toy or stuffed
animal from each student. Donations were also made by Blooms-

The Old Philosopher
Hello there, folks. Welcome back to your "refuge on the hill. " Glad
to see everyone had an "ivy" Christmas. Crew neck sweaters and sneakers are more prominent than ever. And how do you like some of the
experiences you 've heard from your fellow students ? They make Peyton
Place sound like a Sunday School lesson.
You say you live near Girardville and anytime you wanted to see
Amberlavage and Bonenburger you went to Marrone 's? (A very respectable prizza house). Strange, all that pizza and no added pounds.
And speaking of Amberlavage, Waller Hall is giving her a citation for
bravery above and beyond the call of duty — she extinguished a fire
in the press room on the second floor all by her little ole self.
You say you 're wondering who Glenn Reed is talking abput when he
says, "Is this the face that sank a thousand ships?" And Dean Hoch
says he'll never make up schedules while watching the bowl games ?
Incidentally, friends, we are merely writing this column as practice in
anticipation of Dr. Russell's Advanced Composition course .
You say your names are Betty Boop and Dr. DeVoe and you have
resolved to learn how to ice skate before the New Year progresses too
far? And what Sophomore girl bought her boyfriend a car battery for
Chrismas — tired of pushing, honey ?
You say your name is Delores Regan and you resolved to break all
the resolutions yo u made ? And Pat Antonio resolves not to yell "Whale
Ho " at Don Ker this year ? By the way, was television wonderful over
the holidays! All those great westerns resulted in a nation of asthma
victims with saddle bruises.
You say your nam e is Don Morgan and you 've been pinned by Ellen
Drumtra — she gave you her Elvis Presley button ? And we've noticed
the Waffle Grille got new menus from Santa — same old food at the
same prices. Shades of College Commons! Since Cap Parry got his
schedule for next semester, he 's decided to give up his pipe and smoke
cigars. Speaking of schedules, Gary Egl i believes Bill Hess made up his
roommate's schedule; nothing before 10 a.m. every day. Bob Corrigan
say s he didn 't enj oy the movie, The Ten Commandments as much as he

You say you'd like to see someone outdo Drew Pearson 's percentage
of correct predictions thi s year ? Well , friends, let' s see Mr. Pearson outdo us. We predict : The College Book Store will sell books next semester;
Bloomsburg will have a summer school this year; Business Education
will not be dropped at this school; President Andruss will not resign
because of ill health; College Commons will continue serving three meals

a dance next semester; and most of the Seniors will graduate in May.
We sincerely believe we can beter Mr. Pearson 's 83 per cent correct

really nee4ed in 1958: An authentic Maroon and Gold backscratcher; an
automatic card shuffler for the Husky Lounge ; a machine to bring relief
f rom a h angov er before yo ur eight o 'clock class ; a shorthand machine
for homework assignments ; ash trays in classrooms ( burn your cuffs
lately ?) ; a uniform shade of peroxide; smaller textbooks; new TV
shows; a new men's dorm ; snow for a winter sports party ; someone or
something to replace Lawrence Welk. Of course, frie n d s, we have more,
but we 've decided to start the New Year off right — no complaining, as
you 've probably noticed.
We don't want to spend 1958 boring you all at once — we'll do it over
a period of time. May we leave you with this thought: Don 't do what
you want to do; do what you should.

Yuletide Engagements
It looks as if Santa had a rival over the Christmas holidays. Cupid

.. SPORTS HI-LITES .. Huskies
. by Jim Wagner
It 's about that time of the basketball season when all of us have or
should have had an opportunity to see the BSTC Huskies in action After seeing them , we evaluate ihe team in our own different ways, and
then pass judgment as to whether or not the iorthcoming campaign will
be a successr ul one tor those who saw the game with Cheyney S'i'C, the
opinion was that* the prospects look rather discouraging. However , the
game with Cheyney did show some promising things. True, they did
shoot a bit wildly at times, but every team has those games where
inm& a j usl uwi <- tiii-iv.
To mention a few of the items on the brighter side of our cage ledger,
we find that we have the prospects of a team that will, or should offer
any competition a stiff battle. Before I go any further , perhaps portions
of our poor showing can be credited to the calibre of team we played,
and maybe we, the student body, are expecting too much from the
squad. Jim Gustave, the all around forward, is as good a shot as any
one in the conference, and is a fine team man. Bill Swisher, our high
scoring guard , Bob Boyle, All State Defensive guard , John Shaefer,
versatile pivot man , and high j umping Norm Shutovich, make up as
good a starting five as we can expect.
Coming back to the Cheyney affair , this columnist saw a team that
could move the ball with incredible speed. Most of our opponents will
have us on heigh t, but here is where basketball know-how comes in
handy. Most of our ball players have these hidden senses, such as the
ability to go up for a rebound. A good example of this is Norm Shutovich.
Against Cheyney, Shutovich had a man j umping center who was about
three inches taller than he. However, as you saw , Shutovich controlled
the tap easily and effectively, along with his twelve rebounds throughout the game. The Cheyney contest also revealed the potential for three
good set shots in the persons of Boyle, Swisher and Gustave. A team
with men who can shoot lrom the outside, will force the def ense out,
therefore, making more room for your corner and pivot men to manuever. So, as you can see, we have a team which has many fine assets, and
will loom as a definite threat to the dignity of their opponents.

Displaying plenty of know-how

the Huskies of Bloomsburg State
Teachers moved to their first victory of the season with a 27-13 victory over Shippensburg, bef ore 700
fans at Centennial Gym.
Three Huskies scored their first
pins of the season in the opening
match for the local grappler s whose
only previous experience this season was in the Wilkes College Tournament. Jim Garman, Wal t Fake,
and Jack Chidester each tabbed
falls. Of the three pins, the most
spectacular was a pin by Fake over
Dave Dodson in 2:43 of the second
period. Fake, a freshman , had j ust
escaped from a disadvantageous
position and had taken a 3-0 lead
when the Shippensburg wrestler
threw him back on the mat as they
broke from a neutral position near
the edge of the mat. As Fake walked to the center of the mat with
his back to Dodson, the Shippensburg wrestler made a leap which
missed when Fake turned in time.
The Husky matman again walked
away with his back to Dodson and
again the visiting grappler leaped
across the mat at Fake's back.
This time, Fake turned to catch
Dodson almost in mid-air with a
cross-body hold and pressed Dodson to the mat, holding him there
for forty-five seconds before the
pin was completed.
Bobby Rohm, regular 157 pound
battler for the Huskies, scored a
tremendous upset over Maurice
Stidfole in the 191 pound match by
n 7-0 nnurtt.
The quickest fall of the night
came in the unlimited weight when
Frank Prusch was pinned by 265
pound John Habice in fifty-six seconds of the first period. Prusch had
scored a take down over the immense Shippensburg grappler , only
to have Habice reverse him seconds
later and score the fall. Garman's

Houk Presents
Wrestling Show
On Tuesday, January 7, head
wrestling Coach Russell Houk in
the regular Tuesday assembly presented a program concerning wrestling. Mr. Houk presented this program to familiarize the student
body with the various procedures
and rules governing the sport in
order that Husky rooters could enjoy wrestlinp more thoroughly.
Dick R im ple, Bob Asby, Bob
Rohm , and Jim Garman demonstrated the various ways in which
a wrestler may gain individual
points and team points. Coach
Houk explained the scoring summary and had the boys illustrate
several illegal holds and technical
violations. In conclusion to the assembly program, two three-minute
meets were held between RimpleGarman and Asby-Rohm in order
to demonstrate in actual practice
some of the things which Mr. Houk
spoke. Coach Houk is very pleased
with the fine showing the squad
made at Wilkes Tournament and
also their crushing victory over
Shippensburg STC.

MILLER
by PRESIDENT ANDRUSS
(A s told to the Student Assembly)
One of the favorite ways to explain our inability to meet the challenge of change is to blame our shortcomings on someone else. A popular indoor sport in America is known as "Passing the Buck." This
means that if someone else had done something, cert ain things wou ldn 't
have happened. Just now we are talking of Russia 's getting the two Sputniks aloft. The Democrats are blaming President Eisenhower for not
making the Armed Forces work together. The Army blames the Navy,
the Navy blames the Army and they both blame the Air Force. The Republicans are blaming the Democrats for not voting for more appropriations for making such research possible.
Someone has said that passing the buck is a form of fear and that in
education there are too many fears. The teachers fear the principal.
The principal fears the superintendent. The superintendent fears the
school directors. The school directors fear the parents. The parents fear
the pupils and the pupils fear nobody. "Buck Passing " is based on fear.
There is fear that the cause of the shortcoming could be laid at your
door. An unknown author tried to put this in verse form. Here is his
poetic effort :
College Professor :
Such rawness in a pupil is a shame
Lack of preparation in the high school is to blame.
High School Teacher
Good Heavens, what crudity ; the boy's a fool
The fault , of cou rse , is with the elementary school.
Elementary Teacher
Kindergarten blockhead! And they call
That preparation. Worse than none at all.
Kindergarten Teachers:
Such lack of training never did I see
What kind of woman the mother must be!
The Mother :
Poor helpless child — he is not to blame
His father's people are all just the same.
Parents and Schools
A two hour visit some evening to a school and the quick skimming
of a classroom while a teacher nervously goes through her paces is
hardly enough to form a j udgment of education.
Wh at Russia has in its schools seems to challenge us from the columns of newspapers, from our radio speakers and television screens;
and now the subj ect of earth satellites has added a new and confusing
dimension to our concern for the future of our children.
All people do not look at schools alike. The father thinks of the tax
bill while the mother thinks of what the children will become as adults.
It has been said that when you educate a woman you are educating the
next generation, whereas, when you educate a man you are helping to
build a career. P.T.A. members are more concerned with schools than
are those who attend Tax Economy Leagues. The latter have accumulated a certain amount of possessions which are subj ect to tax. Someone has said that the "kids are where the money ain't." A legislator,
when voting for increased appropriations for schools may benefit children ; they in turn, will not be able to vote for some years to come. So
the mother and father, the young parent with growing children, the
older generation whose children are no longer at home, the legislator,
the old-age pensioner, the school children and the school teacher all
look at school from different points of view.
If you go to a hospital and have an operation, you may talk about it
to your friends, but you do not pose as a skilled surgeon. If you go to a
court as a witness, or a defendent , or a pl aintiff , you do not come out
with the idea that you can act as your own lawyer. But everyone who
has gone to school feels that he knows something about education, and
he will freely give you an opinion about pupils, past or present, teaching
as a psychological process, and administrative policies in terms of , "It
wasn 't tha t way when I was in school." Somehow time spent in school
seems to generate the attitude that everyone knows something about
education as a process. But visits to the hospital, to the physician's
office , or to the court do not in themselves leave us the impression that
we are skilled in medicine or learned in the law.
The improvement of a human race depends on education and the
next generation of American citizens will show how well we have done
the j ob. We can not answer the questions of tomorrow by the trite repetition of , "It wa sn 't th at way when I went to school."
