Deep Purpl e Is
Juniors 9 Dream
The Junior Class, a la Duke Ellington , has selected the theme of
"Deep Purple" to provide an exotic setting for this year's Junior
Prom. The mood will be enhanced
by the fascinating dance rhythms
of Gerry Kehler and his orchestra.
Kehler's Williamsport aggregation
played at BSTC two years ago and
the return engagement suggests
that the group is in the groove.
Kenny Swatt has selected a repertoire of talented chairmen who
hope to "send" you to the Centennial Gymnasium : Orchestra arrangements are by John Galinski ;
Beth Sprout has promised a generous supply of goodies; Joe Butz
and Jill Baylor are keeping decorations a top secret until prom nite ;
Larry Fisher takes his cue as budget chairman and genial Carl

Black sweaters, leotards , berets
and cigarette holders were at a
pr emium last night when the Maxwell Bodenheims and Francois Sagans of 13 state teachers colleges
gathered in the Husky Lounge
where they enjoyed an evening of
"hot j azz, exotic refreshments and
uplifting atmosphere." The Bohemian Ball, sponsored by BSTC's Community Government Association,
opened the conference 's three day
social program.
Music from progressive j azz to
rock and roll to the un-classifiable
was played by the turtle-neck
sweatered Encores. The Hazletonarea group made it's initial appearance on the BSTC campus last
nigh t.
Waiters served olive-garnished
cokes to the guests while lovely
ladies laden with eyeshadow and
hair dye distributed baskets of
stick pretzels.
The seldom decorated Husky
Lounge shouted "Vive le Boheme"
as a satiny black spider made its
way down a king-sized web, and
candles flickered in wicker covered
bottles. Modernistic paintings and
travel posters added to the artiste
motif.
Mary Galatha, chairman of the
dance was in some way assisted by
over forty people. Students submitted paintings, gathered wine bottles, and helped in many ways.
Everyone cannot be named but
some of the more prominent are
Nancy Hughes, Nancy Suwalski,
"host" Jim Davies, Bobbie Creamer, Peggy Lynch , Eloise Kaminski, Barby Hockenberry (who did
all publicity work) and Judy Moore.
Others who helped were Deisroths,

58 Representatives from
13 State Teachers Colleges
Attend Annual Convention;
Dr. Charles Boehm Is
Keynote Speaker
Yesterday, Thursday, April 10th,
Bloomsburg State Teachers College
became host to the 1958 Annual
Student Government Association
Conference. Fifty-eight delegates
and eight advisors from thirteen
State Teachers Colleges of Pennsylvania ( all are represented except West Chester) assembled here
to participate in a four-day series
of meetings. The keyword and general theme for this conference is
"apathy "—of college students.
A general assembly with Dr.
Charles Boehm, State Superintendent of Public Instruction; delivering the keynote address, marked
the opening of this important affair. The delegates were then invited to attend "The Bohemian Ball"
held in Husky Lounge last evening.
Today's schedule for the conference delegates consists of a general assembly in Carver Auditorium, eight panel discussions, and
a special evening event in Navy
Hall Auditorium entitled "Monte
Carlo Night ".
The program for Saturday, the
third day of the conference, will include reports of the panel discussions from the previous day and a
business meeting. Later in the day
the College Commons will be the
scene of an informal reception and
a banquet in honor of the visiting
guests. A dance, to which everyone
is invited, will be the feature for
Saturday evening. Bloomsburg will
bid f arewell to the visiting delegates as they depart from our
campus at the conclusion of the
conference on Sunday afternoon.
The main purpose of the conference — to discuss student apathy
— will be carried out in the various
panel discussions on Friday. This
general theme has been divided into eight specific topics with a faculty advisor, discussion leader, summerizer, and eight panel members
to talk about and arrive at some
conclusions for each one. These
panelists will discuss — "Apat hy
Toward Student Government" ,
"Apathy Toward the Prestige of
the State Teachers Colleges", "Apathy Toward Scholarship", "Apathy Toward Discipline Being Handled by Student Governments",
"Apathy Toward Cultural and Social Activities", "Apathy Toward
College Spi r it" , "Apathy Toward
College-CommunityRelationships",
and "Apathy Toward Parking Regu lations".
BSTC delegates and panel members include Mary Galatha, Nancy
Suwalski, Ronald Romig, James
Peck, and Joseph Zapack. Three
other Bloomsburg representatives
will fill important positions in one
of the panel discussions: Mary Ann
Thornton , who will act as summerizer for panel eight; Irwin Parry,
who will be the discussion leader
for panel five; and Mr. Walter
Blair, who will act as faculty advisor for panel six.
Planning the '58 conference are
the present officers of our CGA —
Lu Natter, president; Irwin Parry,
vice-president; JoAnn Bechtel, secretary ; Norman Balchunas, treasurer; and Kenneth Wood, assistant
treasurer. Appinted as committee
chairmen for the conference are:

It's Our Pleasure
Welcome to the Friendly College on the Hill , delegates. Our students have been expecting you and are prepared to make your visit
here as pleasant as possible.
Bloomsburg has had many conventions held on her campus but
none has been of so much interest to our college community. Business
Education and Traffic Safety conferences for hi gh school students and
Sales Rallies for businessmen are not related to our entire student
body. This conference of State Teachers Colleges' Student Government Associations is, because the problems discussed by you delegates
are common to all of our campuses. The basic problem waiting to be
solved is that of apath y — apath y toward student government , the
prestige of state teachers colleges, scholarships, discipline, cultura l and
social activities, college spirit, community relationships, and parking
regulations. This conference will probably not find a solution , but
many forward steps will be taken. The results of the discussions and
assemblies will eventually affect many phases of our own Community
Government Association. The exchange of ideas and opinions which
will take place this weekend is bound to have an important influence
on our college life. Bloomsburg is glad to be the scene of this Twentieth
Annual Conference, and hopes that your stay here wilt be both profitable and enjoyable.

The Election Is Over , but. . .
Yesterday our Community Government Association elections were
held. The choice of candidates was, as usual, very good. Each one
seemed qualified to hold an office. These points were brought out at
the Election Rally Wednesday night in Husky Lounge. The campaign
speeches given that night were the best ever heard at such a gathering.
The important decision of for whom to cast votes was made after
listening to the speaker and weighing all the points discussed. However , these rally speeches had only a negligible influence on election
results. Why ? Because only a negligible percentage of the student body
was present in Husky Lounge to hear the speakers.
An election rally is supposed to stimulate the community, to make
it seriously consider the importance of its votes. These objectives were
reached onl y partiall y because of the lack of attendance. There were
several reasons for this. Many students were not awaie of the rall y because they did not see the ONE sign announcing ii: amid the other
campaign posters. Another reason is that they were not in the comy was mentioned — possibly because
bined assemblies when the
of rall
not
the
combined assembly. The most basic
informed
they ^vere
cause for the small group of students present was probably apathy —
the problem now being discussed by the SGA conference here on
campus.
Tuesday before Easter recess the candidates for the most important
CGA offices delivered campaign speeches to a combined assembly in
Centennial Gymnasium. The number of peop le there to hear riicm
could easily have been seated in Carver Auditorium. Where were the
apathetic students? At least two hundred were sitting in the Husky
Lounge having a cofTee break between their 9 and 11 o'clock classes.
Some students had left for home Monday ; others were in their dormitory rooms, while the day students were in their lounges or on their
way home after their onl y classes of the day. It 's not possible for anyone to judge a candidate on the small amount of personal contact you
might have had with him or her while here at school. How can prospective officers of your government association be viewed objective ly if
there is no basis for judgem ent? Personality and appearance are good
things to look for when you want a date, but when you are choosing
a person who is going to be required to assume the responsibility of a
student office , there arc many other things to consider. Character , dependability, willingness and efficiency are all important qualifications.
All of the candidates had these j n vary ing degrees. You the members
of the Community Government Association have voted for those whom
you thoug ht would best discharge their obligations. Congratulations
to the new officers!!

Damn Charmin '
by JOHN NAGLE
Thursday morning, March 27,
Mr . George Feyer charmed an en-
thusiastic BSTC audience with his
piano stylings of classical and popular music. The first four numbers
in the program were the "Warsaw
Concerto," selections from "Th e
King and I," "Chopin 's Etude in E
fiat maj or," and one of Mr. Feyer 's
albums, "Echoes of Paris."
The surprise of the morning was
the little story Mr. Eeyer told. The
story took place in heaven and was
about the music masters of the past
and their discussion of the music
from "My Fair Lady". They all
agreed that the music was good
and they all wished they had written the score for the show. Then ,
each one sat down and played a
selection from "My Fair Lady" in
his own style. Johanne Sebastian
Bach played, "Loverly," and Rachmaninoff followed with "On the
Street Where You Live." Mozart
came on with his version of "The
Rain in Spain " and Verdi played
"Got Me to the Church on Time,"
wishing he could have used it for
one of the victory marches in his
operas. Mr. Strauss ended the medley with his Viennese waltz version
of "I Could Have Danced All
¦K.T1 _ \_ 1. I!
l^ IgHl.
The audience thundered their applause and Mr. Freyer came back
for an encore playing "The Donkey
Serenade," "Round the World ,"
and concluding with "Maleguena. "
Mr. Foyer has several recordings
on the market and he has appeared
on the Ed Sullivan TV Show. BSTC
audience reaction indicated that he
was one of the best performers
we've had on our stage this year.
Roongo III is wearing that woeful look these days. And the Husky,
mascot of all Maroon and Gold athletic teams on Campus, has a right
to look a bit under the weather. You might say she is on .her way to
the "condemned" cell. That is, if the college community doesn't step in
and grant her a reprieve if not a full pardon.
Her only crime is that she likes to eat at least once a day. The story
you know — the Alumni Association 's refusal to continue supporting the
dog — the inability of campus organizations to keep her indefinitely
without added source of income — the complete standstill in any action
concerning her.
College Council has considered the matter again and again. Several
suggestions have been made to handle the fate of the mascot.
1. That Roongo should be given away with the stipulation that she
may be borrowed for home games.
2. That she should be boarded at a kennel (charge—a dollar a day at
$365 per year J.
3. That she should remain on campus grounds, her food and care costs
provided for in the College Budget.
4. That annual student-sponsored activities should raise money for
her support — activities such as a Mascot Dance or a Roongo Tag Campaign in which students would buy a twenty-five cent Husky tag, the
theory much like that behind poppies and Easter seals.
College Council has asked the Maroon and Gold to present some of
these suggestions to the students so that a survey of student opinions
may be taken in some future assembly. The question, simply, is this:
Are we concerned with Roongo as a dog or as a mascot ? If we consider her as a particular dog and figure out how much she costs in proportion to how much use we get from her, the expenses are indeed high.
This particular dog will die sometime-— probably soon all that money
will have been wasted.
But if we are thinking about the symbol of our Bloomsburg Huskies
then we must consider how much that symbol means to us. Is it worth
paying money for ? Can we do without the concrete object ? When Roongo III dies will there be a fourth and a fifth and a sixth ?
And , finally , if we do think Roongo the mascot as well as Roongo the
dog is important enough to want to keep, just what are we as students
willing to do to keep her ?
That is the question !

THE TRIBUNAL
What Now?
Last May a group of students
proposed a student tribunal or
court organized for the purpose of
dealing with various violations of
campus policies. Mr. Irwin Parry
headed the committee. A code was
composed that suggested how such
a tribunal might operate.
When the code was presented to
a committee of faculy members no
definite action was taken and, as
a result, the 1956-57 college year
closed with no decision concerning
the code.
At the College Council meeting
on September 23, 1957, it was suggested by students that the question of the tribunal be investigated.
The chairman of the committee introduced the matter to council for
consideration. Since council neither approved nor disapproved of the
proposal, Mr. Stradtman moved
that a committee be organized to
study the possibilities of establishing an interim College Council tribunal and to develop a plan under
which such a tribunal might functinn.
College Council, under a provision in the Community Government
Constitution, has the power to sit
in j udgment of students. This power, up to the present , has not been
exercised. The committee headed
by Mr. Stradtman presented a
printed pamphlet to all students
that contained information concerning the Interim Tribunal. Both
the Upperclassmen and the Freshmen were given an opportunity to
express their views, pro and con,
and direct questions to a panel
composed of Dr. Ralph Herre, Mr.
Stradtman, Irwin Parry, Annette
Roush , Ron Romig, and Jim Peck.
On Thursday, March 27, in a
referendum the tribunal was voted
upon by students and faculty. The
final decision, however, rests with
college council.
Tuesday , April 1, at a combined
assembly the results of the referendum were announced , they are as
follows:

.. SPORTS HI-LIT ES ..
by Jim Wagner
Several weeks ago all of us had the chance to witness basketball at
its best. Many of us took advantage of that opportunity and went to see
the "Night of Champians" in the Thirty-first Annual Invitational Basketball Tourney. From the outside some of us may have thought that
organizing and running a tournament was something that the tourney
workers did in their leisure time. But it wasn't that easy ! Now that the
tournament is over they can sit back and reap the meager benefits of
their effor ts. A feeling of satisfaction is about all the compensation
these people receive.
Several people in the tournament are worthy of special recognition.
Athletic Director Russell Houk did a terrific j ob in his "rookie " year as
being the top man in the circuit. Coach Houk's duties ranged from teleph one calls to' contacting officials. One of Mr. Houk's duties was the
general organising of the tourney which consisted *of contacting the
teams, classifying and pairing them, offi cials procurement, and many
other minor details which were necessary for the proper functioning of
a tourney. Mr. Houk was assisted by Dean of Men and Head Baseball
Coach Walter Blair, Chief Co-ordinator George Heere, and Assistant
Co-ordinator Robert Schalles. The fine work done by Wally Hutz cannot be overlooked. If there was ever a problem to be solved about the
tourney, Wally had the answer or knew where to get it. Without Hutz ,
this columnist would say, the tourney would have been hurting in more
ways than one. Wally certainly did a fine j ob and his effor ts should not
go unrecognized.
Throughout the entire tournament it was necessary for some of our
college men to act as official scorers, ti m ers, and managers. This is
about the most gruesome and grinding j ob at the tourney. All they do
is j ust sit, sit, and sit . Acting in the capacity of scorers and timers were
Joseph Zapach, Paul Anderson, Bud Sheridan, and Robert Boyle. One
of the responsibilities of George Herre and Bob Schalles was to obtain
student managers for each of the teams. This group of individuals assumed the duty of caring for the visiting high school squads. The managers duties consisted mainly of supplying the teams with towels, soap,
and oranges, and guidance whenever needed.
Acting the less important roles in the tourney were the ushers, the
usherettes, the BSTC cheerleaders, who judged the high school squads ,
and Coach Harold Shelly and his j udges who selected the All-Stars and
the All-Tourney Player. Pete Valania and Ronald Romig served in the
capacity of managers. This detailed job involved the issuing of towels,
oranges, and other miscellaneous items. All of these made a valuable
contribution to the*tourney.
Last , but not least, was Boyd Buckingham and his public relations
staff. It was the duty of these individuals to see to it that both the winning and losing teams received a sports release which was to be printed
in their home town papers, It was also their responsibility to put the
boxscores in the Morning Press. If there is ever anything you want to
know about past tourneys, you can find the answer in the tourney files
located in the Public Relations Office.
In summarizing, this foresaid group of indivi duals devoted unselfishly
of their time and energy and should be given some recognition. They
did a terrific job in adding prestige to our college and deserve all the
credit which they receive.

B Club to Sponsor
Girl' s Sports Part y
A Girl's Sports Day, sponsored
by the "B" Club, will be held on
Saturday, April 26, during which
time the BSTC coeds will be pitting
their athletic ability against girls
from six other colleges. Soliciting
invitations to Lycoming College,
Susquehanna University, Wilkes
College, Bucknell University, and
the Mansfield and Lock Haven
State Teachers Colleges, the girls
are looking forward to a huge turnout, both from the visiting aggregation and girls on the BSTC campus.
The Sports Day is under the direction of Molly Mattern and Audrey Brumbach, and various committees have been appointed to
plan and organize the day 's activities.
Beginning at 9:30 a.m., coffee and
doughnuts will be served in the
Centennial Gym. Following these
refreshments, softball games will
be played on the fields reserved for
this purpose. Lunch will be served
in the College Commons at 1:00
p.m. Various activities will be included on the agenda for the remainder of the afternoon, including
badminton (doubles) and archery.
After the presentation of a water
ballet, a free swim will be conducted until the termination of the program at approximately 4:30 p.m.
In case of inclement weather , the
entire day will consist of indoor
sports in Centennial Gym.
Miss Eleanor Wray, women's
physical education instructor, stated that the main reasons for the
Sports Day is to afford the girls an
opportunity to become acquainted
with girls from other colleges, to
exchange new ideas on physical education, and to discuss the planning and organizing of intramural
programs.

BLOOMSBURG, PA.
FOR MEN
BASEBALL. PREVIEW
Soon after our return from the Easter Vacation the Husky baseball
squad, coached by Walter Blair, will venture to Lock Haven to entertain our STC rivals in the firs t game of the season.
Information is lacking on the potential strength or weakness of the
Lock Haven squad , but as Bloomsburg fans know, we can never underestimate the power of the Lock Haven nine.
The Husky squad , although plagued with graduation blues, injuries,
and withdrawals, has a good nucleus of seasoned veterans returning.
Among these are Bob Boy.Ie, Pat "Tiger" DeNoy, Jonah Goobic, John
Oustrich , Pau l Franklin , Dan Fritz , Joe Pendal , Dale Franklin, Joe
DoviinV » ol 1r\
r» y \ A *Rr\V\ T? f\Vi m
Pitching appears to be the number one problem in building a winning
Husky squad. The loss of Bob DiPipi, Bill Freed, and Ed Woj ciechowski
will place the burden of chucking on an inexperienced group including:
Dale Franklin, Roy Shiffl et , Ed Galitsky, and Roy Quick . Joe Pendal,
our mainstay at short stop, may have to fill in with some mound duty
if the need arises. If these hurlers can come through with consistent
wins, the Huskies can prove to be a threat to the STC Conference crown.
Jonah Goobic, our seasoned catcher with three years of varsity competition behind him, will be back again. His most important j ob this
year will be the handling of the inexperienced pitchers.
The Bloomsburg infield looks to be the brightest prospect of the
coming season. Pendal ,and DeNoy will be back to cover the keystone
sack with Bobby Rohm a possible candidate for the third base job.
Veteran John Oustrick looks like the most logical candidate for the first
base position, which has been left unfilled by the absence of Kenny Hill,
last year's regular first-sacker.
Bob Boyle will return again this spring to the right field position. The
loss of Chuck Casper and Ed Shustack will give Dan Fritz, Ed Blackburn , and Phil Lockuff a chance to vie for those positions.
On the whole, the outlook seems fairly bright. Coach Blair has summarized the situation in a three point program :
1. 'Develop an inexperienced pitching corps into a staff of steady, effective hurlers.
2. Develop an adequate first baseman.
3. Develop the hitting power of the outfield as the prime power at the
plate with help from Goobic and one or two of the key infielders.

Gustave Named To
STC All Star Team
HESS' GRILLE
In the Seventh Annual Pennsylvania State Teachers College Conferen ce All St ar Team, Jim "Goose "
Gustave was selected to the second
team. Jim, senior forward from
Plains, was named to the second
team after he finished fourth in the
conference scoring race with 262
points in 13 conference games. He
hit for 339 points in the overall
seventeen game schedule to set a
new Bloomsburg four-year mark of
950. Jim was second only to Shutovich in rebounding on the Husky
squad as he collected 190.
Joe Delise of Indiana was top
vote getter according to the twelve
coaches who voted. Second in voting was Ronald Botz of Clarion who
was followed closely by Roger Hotz
of California STC. Rounding out
the firs t team were Sylvester Williams from Millersville and Indiana 's Jack Bizyak.
In addition to Gustave, the second team consisted of Gerald Terette, Lock Haven; Charles German,
East Stroudsburg ; Terry German ,

ing in strength in several events.
In the running events — sprints ,
m ile, two mile, and the hurdles —
the Huskies look the strongest. In
these departments, Coach Shelly
can rely on Ed Watts, Ray Thayer,
Harold Giacomini, Matt Mensch ,
Chuck Loughery and Stan Elinsky.
Doughery has been the team's most
consistent "point-getter " over the
past three seasons.
In the throwing weights — discuss, shot and javelin — the Huskies can depend on seven returning
lettermen. Gerry Wood, Tom. Vaxmonsky, and Carl Sweet will represent Bloomsburg in the discus
even t, with Sweet and Wood also
handling the shot. In the j avelin
throw, the leading contenders are
Ken Wood and Nick Volpetti.
Ken Swatt and Stan Elinsky are
back once again to compete in the
j umping events, and will be assisted by some able freshmen candidates.
Last year the Husky squad won
four meets while losing two. In the
Penn Relays they placed fourth in
STC Mile Relay, and in the State
Meet they placed seventh. Coach
Shelly, as pessimistic as ever,
thinks the Huskies will have to
work hard to better last year 's record. We must admit that unfavorable weather over the past few
weeks has been somewhat of a
hindrance to the training program,
but we're sure the Huskies will give
a favorable account of themselves
once the season gets underway.

the flowers?
Practice Teachers
Visit Harrisb urg
Education Offices
Twenty-five" practice teachers of
BSTC left the college early Friday
morning, March 28, to visit the
Pennsylvania State Education Association and the State Department
of Public Instruction offices in Harrisburg. The senior students are
members of* the weekly professional practicum class instructed by
Dr. George J. Fike, who accompanied them on the tour.
At ten o'clock in the morning, the
group met at the PSEA building.
Miss Lucy Valero, former president
of the organization, discussed such
topics as school law, ethics, professional responsibility, and the extent
and expansion of services rendered
to the teaching profession by the
PSEA. She described the building
expansion program designed to
meet better the needs of the state,
and aswered student directed questions on the PSEA role in educaL1U11.
The editor of the PSEA Journal
then directed a tour of the editing
f acilities of the state education
magazine.
At one o'clock the students visited the State Department of Public
Instruction. State officials from the
Bureaus of Certification , Curriculum, and Supervision and Secondary Education discussed matters
pertaining to their respective divisions. Students were introduced to
supervisory and curricular material available for use in the teacher's individual instructional proerram.
The trip was designed to give the
students a grasp of education at
the state level and education as a
state function. The students, by
planning, attending, and reporting
on the tour, expect to understand
the services rendered to teachers
and the teaching profession in general by these state officials ; as beginning teachers next year, t hey
expect to utilize these services.
The visit to PSEA headquarters
was planned by a student committee including Charles Jessup, chairman ; Annette Roush, and Raymond
Trump. Carl Shively, chairman,
worked with Walter Collins and
William Hughes to plan the trip to
the Department of Public Instruction.
Rabinofs in Town
Again April 15th
Benno and Sylvia Rabinof , the
internationally famous violin-piano
team, will perform in Bloomsburg
on April 15 at the High School Auditorium as part of their thirteenth
nationwide tour. Two seasons ago
they made a brilliant tour of the
European con tinent , with a "side
trip " to Isr ael, where they were
heard in recital. Last season, at the
invitation of the International Exchange Program of A.N.T.A., they
toured the near East. This season
the Rabinofs will visit Mexico and
tour the United States twice before returning to Europe in the late
spring.
Mr. Rabinof began his career under the guidance of the famous
teacher, Leopold Auer, when he
made his debut in Carnegie Hall at
the age of nineteen , with the New
York Philharmonic under the baton
of Auer. Since that bow, Rabinof
has been too well known to need
introduction to audiences either
here or abroad. He has appeared as
soloist with leading symphony
orchestras in the United States,
Canada, and Europe, and has made
regular radio appearances over the
national networks.
Sylvia Rabinof accompanies her
husband on the piano enurely from
memory. Before her New York debut in Town Hall, she enjoy ed a
successful career of her own in
Paris and in Switzerland as concert
soloist. She is also a composer, with
a children's operetta and a suite
for chamber orchestra among her
works.

Black sweaters, leotards , berets
and cigarette holders were at a
pr emium last night when the Maxwell Bodenheims and Francois Sagans of 13 state teachers colleges
gathered in the Husky Lounge
where they enjoyed an evening of
"hot j azz, exotic refreshments and
uplifting atmosphere." The Bohemian Ball, sponsored by BSTC's Community Government Association,
opened the conference 's three day
social program.
Music from progressive j azz to
rock and roll to the un-classifiable
was played by the turtle-neck
sweatered Encores. The Hazletonarea group made it's initial appearance on the BSTC campus last
nigh t.
Waiters served olive-garnished
cokes to the guests while lovely
ladies laden with eyeshadow and
hair dye distributed baskets of
stick pretzels.
The seldom decorated Husky
Lounge shouted "Vive le Boheme"
as a satiny black spider made its
way down a king-sized web, and
candles flickered in wicker covered
bottles. Modernistic paintings and
travel posters added to the artiste
motif.
Mary Galatha, chairman of the
dance was in some way assisted by
over forty people. Students submitted paintings, gathered wine bottles, and helped in many ways.
Everyone cannot be named but
some of the more prominent are

58 Representatives from
13 State Teachers Colleges
Attend Annual Convention;
Dr. Charles Boehm Is
Keynote Speaker
Yesterday, Thursday, April 10th,
Bloomsburg State Teachers College
became host to the 1958 Annual
Student Government Association
Conference. Fifty-eight delegates
and eight advisors from thirteen
State Teachers Colleges of Pennsylvania ( all are represented except West Chester) assembled here
to participate in a four-day series
of meetings. The keyword and general theme for this conference is
"apathy "—of college students.
A general assembly with Dr.
Charles Boehm, State Superintendent of Public Instruction; delivering the keynote address, marked
the opening of this important affair. The delegates were then invited to attend "The Bohemian Ball"
held in Husky Lounge last evening.
Today's schedule for the conference delegates consists of a general assembly in Carver Auditorium, eight panel discussions, and
a special evening event in Navy
Hall Auditorium entitled "Monte
Carlo Night ".
The program for Saturday, the
third day of the conference, will include reports of the panel discussions from the previous day and a
business meeting. Later in the day
the College Commons will be the
scene of an informal reception and
a banquet in honor of the visiting
guests. A dance, to which everyone
is invited, will be the feature for
Saturday evening. Bloomsburg will
bid f arewell to the visiting delegates as they depart from our
campus at the conclusion of the
conference on Sunday afternoon.
The main purpose of the conference — to discuss student apathy
— will be carried out in the various
panel discussions on Friday. This
general theme has been divided into eight specific topics with a faculty advisor, discussion leader, summerizer, and eight panel members
to talk about and arrive at some
conclusions for each one. These
panelists will discuss — "Apat hy
Toward Student Government" ,
"Apathy Toward the Prestige of
the State Teachers Colleges", "Apathy Toward Scholarship", "Apathy Toward Discipline Being Handled by Student Governments",
"Apathy Toward Cultural and Social Activities", "Apathy Toward
College Spi r it" , "Apathy Toward
College-CommunityRelationships",
and "Apathy Toward Parking Regu lations".
BSTC delegates and panel members include Mary Galatha, Nancy
Suwalski, Ronald Romig, James
Peck, and Joseph Zapack. Three
other Bloomsburg representatives
will fill important positions in one
of the panel discussions: Mary Ann
Thornton , who will act as summerizer for panel eight; Irwin Parry,
who will be the discussion leader
for panel five; and Mr. Walter
Blair, who will act as faculty advisor for panel six.
Planning the '58 conference are
the present officers of our CGA —
Lu Natter, president; Irwin Parry,
vice-president; JoAnn Bechtel, secretary ; Norman Balchunas, treasurer; and Kenneth Wood, assistant
treasurer. Appinted as committee
chairmen for the conference are:

It's Our Pleasure
Welcome to the Friendly College on the Hill , delegates. Our students have been expecting you and are prepared to make your visit
here as pleasant as possible.
Bloomsburg has had many conventions held on her campus but
none has been of so much interest to our college community. Business
Education and Traffic Safety conferences for hi gh school students and
Sales Rallies for businessmen are not related to our entire student
body. This conference of State Teachers Colleges' Student Government Associations is, because the problems discussed by you delegates
are common to all of our campuses. The basic problem waiting to be
solved is that of apath y — apath y toward student government , the
prestige of state teachers colleges, scholarships, discipline, cultura l and
social activities, college spirit, community relationships, and parking
regulations. This conference will probably not find a solution , but
many forward steps will be taken. The results of the discussions and
assemblies will eventually affect many phases of our own Community
Government Association. The exchange of ideas and opinions which
will take place this weekend is bound to have an important influence
on our college life. Bloomsburg is glad to be the scene of this Twentieth
Annual Conference, and hopes that your stay here wilt be both profitable and enjoyable.

The Election Is Over , but. . .
Yesterday our Community Government Association elections were
held. The choice of candidates was, as usual, very good. Each one
seemed qualified to hold an office. These points were brought out at
the Election Rally Wednesday night in Husky Lounge. The campaign
speeches given that night were the best ever heard at such a gathering.
The important decision of for whom to cast votes was made after
listening to the speaker and weighing all the points discussed. However , these rally speeches had only a negligible influence on election
results. Why ? Because only a negligible percentage of the student body
was present in Husky Lounge to hear the speakers.
An election rally is supposed to stimulate the community, to make
it seriously consider the importance of its votes. These objectives were
reached onl y partiall y because of the lack of attendance. There were
several reasons for this. Many students were not awaie of the rall y because they did not see the ONE sign announcing ii: amid the other
campaign posters. Another reason is that they were not in the comy was mentioned — possibly because
bined assemblies when the
of rall
not
the
combined assembly. The most basic
informed
they ^vere
cause for the small group of students present was probably apathy —
the problem now being discussed by the SGA conference here on
campus.
Tuesday before Easter recess the candidates for the most important
CGA offices delivered campaign speeches to a combined assembly in
Centennial Gymnasium. The number of peop le there to hear riicm
could easily have been seated in Carver Auditorium. Where were the
apathetic students? At least two hundred were sitting in the Husky
Lounge having a cofTee break between their 9 and 11 o'clock classes.
Some students had left for home Monday ; others were in their dormitory rooms, while the day students were in their lounges or on their
way home after their onl y classes of the day. It 's not possible for anyone to judge a candidate on the small amount of personal contact you
might have had with him or her while here at school. How can prospective officers of your government association be viewed objective ly if
there is no basis for judgem ent? Personality and appearance are good
things to look for when you want a date, but when you are choosing
a person who is going to be required to assume the responsibility of a
student office , there arc many other things to consider. Character , dependability, willingness and efficiency are all important qualifications.
All of the candidates had these j n vary ing degrees. You the members
of the Community Government Association have voted for those whom
you thoug ht would best discharge their obligations. Congratulations
to the new officers!!

Damn Charmin '
by JOHN NAGLE
Thursday morning, March 27,
Mr . George Feyer charmed an en-
thusiastic BSTC audience with his
piano stylings of classical and popular music. The first four numbers
in the program were the "Warsaw
Concerto," selections from "Th e
King and I," "Chopin 's Etude in E
fiat maj or," and one of Mr. Feyer 's
albums, "Echoes of Paris."
The surprise of the morning was
the little story Mr. Eeyer told. The
story took place in heaven and was
about the music masters of the past
and their discussion of the music
from "My Fair Lady". They all
agreed that the music was good
and they all wished they had written the score for the show. Then ,
each one sat down and played a
selection from "My Fair Lady" in
his own style. Johanne Sebastian
Bach played, "Loverly," and Rachmaninoff followed with "On the
Street Where You Live." Mozart
came on with his version of "The
Rain in Spain " and Verdi played
"Got Me to the Church on Time,"
wishing he could have used it for
one of the victory marches in his
operas. Mr. Strauss ended the medley with his Viennese waltz version
of "I Could Have Danced All
¦K.T1 _ \_ 1. I!
l^ IgHl.
The audience thundered their applause and Mr. Freyer came back
for an encore playing "The Donkey
Serenade," "Round the World ,"
and concluding with "Maleguena. "
Mr. Foyer has several recordings
on the market and he has appeared
on the Ed Sullivan TV Show. BSTC
audience reaction indicated that he
was one of the best performers
we've had on our stage this year.
Roongo III is wearing that woeful look these days. And the Husky,
mascot of all Maroon and Gold athletic teams on Campus, has a right
to look a bit under the weather. You might say she is on .her way to
the "condemned" cell. That is, if the college community doesn't step in
and grant her a reprieve if not a full pardon.
Her only crime is that she likes to eat at least once a day. The story
you know — the Alumni Association 's refusal to continue supporting the
dog — the inability of campus organizations to keep her indefinitely
without added source of income — the complete standstill in any action
concerning her.
College Council has considered the matter again and again. Several
suggestions have been made to handle the fate of the mascot.
1. That Roongo should be given away with the stipulation that she
may be borrowed for home games.
2. That she should be boarded at a kennel (charge—a dollar a day at
$365 per year J.
3. That she should remain on campus grounds, her food and care costs
provided for in the College Budget.
4. That annual student-sponsored activities should raise money for
her support — activities such as a Mascot Dance or a Roongo Tag Campaign in which students would buy a twenty-five cent Husky tag, the
theory much like that behind poppies and Easter seals.
College Council has asked the Maroon and Gold to present some of
these suggestions to the students so that a survey of student opinions
may be taken in some future assembly. The question, simply, is this:
Are we concerned with Roongo as a dog or as a mascot ? If we consider her as a particular dog and figure out how much she costs in proportion to how much use we get from her, the expenses are indeed high.
This particular dog will die sometime-— probably soon all that money
will have been wasted.
But if we are thinking about the symbol of our Bloomsburg Huskies
then we must consider how much that symbol means to us. Is it worth
paying money for ? Can we do without the concrete object ? When Roongo III dies will there be a fourth and a fifth and a sixth ?
And , finally , if we do think Roongo the mascot as well as Roongo the
dog is important enough to want to keep, just what are we as students
willing to do to keep her ?
That is the question !

THE TRIBUNAL
What Now?
Last May a group of students
proposed a student tribunal or
court organized for the purpose of
dealing with various violations of
campus policies. Mr. Irwin Parry
headed the committee. A code was
composed that suggested how such
a tribunal might operate.
When the code was presented to
a committee of faculy members no
definite action was taken and, as
a result, the 1956-57 college year
closed with no decision concerning
the code.
At the College Council meeting
on September 23, 1957, it was suggested by students that the question of the tribunal be investigated.
The chairman of the committee introduced the matter to council for
consideration. Since council neither approved nor disapproved of the
proposal, Mr. Stradtman moved
that a committee be organized to
study the possibilities of establishing an interim College Council tribunal and to develop a plan under
which such a tribunal might functinn.
College Council, under a provision in the Community Government
Constitution, has the power to sit
in j udgment of students. This power, up to the present , has not been
exercised. The committee headed
by Mr. Stradtman presented a
printed pamphlet to all students
that contained information concerning the Interim Tribunal. Both
the Upperclassmen and the Freshmen were given an opportunity to
express their views, pro and con,
and direct questions to a panel
composed of Dr. Ralph Herre, Mr.
Stradtman, Irwin Parry, Annette
Roush , Ron Romig, and Jim Peck.
On Thursday, March 27, in a
referendum the tribunal was voted
upon by students and faculty. The
final decision, however, rests with
college council.
Tuesday , April 1, at a combined
assembly the results of the referendum were announced , they are as
follows:

.. SPORTS HI-LIT ES ..
by Jim Wagner
Several weeks ago all of us had the chance to witness basketball at
its best. Many of us took advantage of that opportunity and went to see
the "Night of Champians" in the Thirty-first Annual Invitational Basketball Tourney. From the outside some of us may have thought that
organizing and running a tournament was something that the tourney
workers did in their leisure time. But it wasn't that easy ! Now that the
tournament is over they can sit back and reap the meager benefits of
their effor ts. A feeling of satisfaction is about all the compensation
these people receive.
Several people in the tournament are worthy of special recognition.
Athletic Director Russell Houk did a terrific j ob in his "rookie " year as
being the top man in the circuit. Coach Houk's duties ranged from teleph one calls to' contacting officials. One of Mr. Houk's duties was the
general organising of the tourney which consisted *of contacting the
teams, classifying and pairing them, offi cials procurement, and many
other minor details which were necessary for the proper functioning of
a tourney. Mr. Houk was assisted by Dean of Men and Head Baseball
Coach Walter Blair, Chief Co-ordinator George Heere, and Assistant
Co-ordinator Robert Schalles. The fine work done by Wally Hutz cannot be overlooked. If there was ever a problem to be solved about the
tourney, Wally had the answer or knew where to get it. Without Hutz ,
this columnist would say, the tourney would have been hurting in more
ways than one. Wally certainly did a fine j ob and his effor ts should not
go unrecognized.
Throughout the entire tournament it was necessary for some of our
college men to act as official scorers, ti m ers, and managers. This is
about the most gruesome and grinding j ob at the tourney. All they do
is j ust sit, sit, and sit . Acting in the capacity of scorers and timers were
Joseph Zapach, Paul Anderson, Bud Sheridan, and Robert Boyle. One
of the responsibilities of George Herre and Bob Schalles was to obtain
student managers for each of the teams. This group of individuals assumed the duty of caring for the visiting high school squads. The managers duties consisted mainly of supplying the teams with towels, soap,
and oranges, and guidance whenever needed.
Acting the less important roles in the tourney were the ushers, the
usherettes, the BSTC cheerleaders, who judged the high school squads ,
and Coach Harold Shelly and his j udges who selected the All-Stars and
the All-Tourney Player. Pete Valania and Ronald Romig served in the
capacity of managers. This detailed job involved the issuing of towels,
oranges, and other miscellaneous items. All of these made a valuable
contribution to the*tourney.
Last , but not least, was Boyd Buckingham and his public relations
staff. It was the duty of these individuals to see to it that both the winning and losing teams received a sports release which was to be printed
in their home town papers, It was also their responsibility to put the
boxscores in the Morning Press. If there is ever anything you want to
know about past tourneys, you can find the answer in the tourney files
located in the Public Relations Office.
In summarizing, this foresaid group of indivi duals devoted unselfishly
of their time and energy and should be given some recognition. They
did a terrific job in adding prestige to our college and deserve all the
credit which they receive.

B Club to Sponsor
Girl' s Sports Part y
A Girl's Sports Day, sponsored
by the "B" Club, will be held on
Saturday, April 26, during which
time the BSTC coeds will be pitting
their athletic ability against girls
from six other colleges. Soliciting
invitations to Lycoming College,
Susquehanna University, Wilkes
College, Bucknell University, and
the Mansfield and Lock Haven
State Teachers Colleges, the girls
are looking forward to a huge turnout, both from the visiting aggregation and girls on the BSTC campus.
The Sports Day is under the direction of Molly Mattern and Audrey Brumbach, and various committees have been appointed to
plan and organize the day 's activities.
Beginning at 9:30 a.m., coffee and
doughnuts will be served in the
Centennial Gym. Following these
refreshments, softball games will
be played on the fields reserved for
this purpose. Lunch will be served
in the College Commons at 1:00
p.m. Various activities will be included on the agenda for the remainder of the afternoon, including
badminton (doubles) and archery.
After the presentation of a water
ballet, a free swim will be conducted until the termination of the program at approximately 4:30 p.m.
In case of inclement weather , the
entire day will consist of indoor
sports in Centennial Gym.
Miss Eleanor Wray, women's
physical education instructor, stated that the main reasons for the
Sports Day is to afford the girls an
opportunity to become acquainted
with girls from other colleges, to
exchange new ideas on physical education, and to discuss the planning and organizing of intramural
programs.

BLOOMSBURG, PA.
FOR MEN
BASEBALL. PREVIEW
Soon after our return from the Easter Vacation the Husky baseball
squad, coached by Walter Blair, will venture to Lock Haven to entertain our STC rivals in the firs t game of the season.
Information is lacking on the potential strength or weakness of the
Lock Haven squad , but as Bloomsburg fans know, we can never underestimate the power of the Lock Haven nine.
The Husky squad , although plagued with graduation blues, injuries,
and withdrawals, has a good nucleus of seasoned veterans returning.
Among these are Bob Boy.Ie, Pat "Tiger" DeNoy, Jonah Goobic, John
Oustrich , Pau l Franklin , Dan Fritz , Joe Pendal , Dale Franklin, Joe
DoviinV » ol 1r\
r» y \ A *Rr\V\ T? f\Vi m
Pitching appears to be the number one problem in building a winning
Husky squad. The loss of Bob DiPipi, Bill Freed, and Ed Woj ciechowski
will place the burden of chucking on an inexperienced group including:
Dale Franklin, Roy Shiffl et , Ed Galitsky, and Roy Quick . Joe Pendal,
our mainstay at short stop, may have to fill in with some mound duty
if the need arises. If these hurlers can come through with consistent
wins, the Huskies can prove to be a threat to the STC Conference crown.
Jonah Goobic, our seasoned catcher with three years of varsity competition behind him, will be back again. His most important j ob this
year will be the handling of the inexperienced pitchers.
The Bloomsburg infield looks to be the brightest prospect of the
coming season. Pendal ,and DeNoy will be back to cover the keystone
sack with Bobby Rohm a possible candidate for the third base job.
Veteran John Oustrick looks like the most logical candidate for the first
base position, which has been left unfilled by the absence of Kenny Hill,
last year's regular first-sacker.
Bob Boyle will return again this spring to the right field position. The
loss of Chuck Casper and Ed Shustack will give Dan Fritz, Ed Blackburn , and Phil Lockuff a chance to vie for those positions.
On the whole, the outlook seems fairly bright. Coach Blair has summarized the situation in a three point program :
1. 'Develop an inexperienced pitching corps into a staff of steady, effective hurlers.
2. Develop an adequate first baseman.
3. Develop the hitting power of the outfield as the prime power at the
plate with help from Goobic and one or two of the key infielders.

STC All Star Team
HESS' GRILLE
In the Seventh Annual Pennsylvania State Teachers College Conferen ce All St ar Team, Jim "Goose "
Gustave was selected to the second
team. Jim, senior forward from
Plains, was named to the second
team after he finished fourth in the
conference scoring race with 262
points in 13 conference games. He
hit for 339 points in the overall
seventeen game schedule to set a
new Bloomsburg four-year mark of
950. Jim was second only to Shutovich in rebounding on the Husky
squad as he collected 190.
Joe Delise of Indiana was top
vote getter according to the twelve
coaches who voted. Second in voting was Ronald Botz of Clarion who
was followed closely by Roger Hotz
of California STC. Rounding out
the firs t team were Sylvester Williams from Millersville and Indiana 's Jack Bizyak.
In addition to Gustave, the second team consisted of Gerald Terette, Lock Haven; Charles German,
East Stroudsburg ; Terry German ,
West Chester; and Jim Bishop of
Millersville, Those gaining honorable mention were Reggie Rife ,

ing in strength in several events.
In the running events — sprints ,
m ile, two mile, and the hurdles —
the Huskies look the strongest. In
these departments, Coach Shelly
can rely on Ed Watts, Ray Thayer,
Harold Giacomini, Matt Mensch ,
Chuck Loughery and Stan Elinsky.
Doughery has been the team's most
consistent "point-getter " over the
past three seasons.
In the throwing weights — discuss, shot and javelin — the Huskies can depend on seven returning
lettermen. Gerry Wood, Tom. Vaxmonsky, and Carl Sweet will represent Bloomsburg in the discus
even t, with Sweet and Wood also
handling the shot. In the j avelin
throw, the leading contenders are
Ken Wood and Nick Volpetti.
Ken Swatt and Stan Elinsky are
back once again to compete in the
j umping events, and will be assisted by some able freshmen candidates.
Last year the Husky squad won
four meets while losing two. In the
Penn Relays they placed fourth in
STC Mile Relay, and in the State
Meet they placed seventh. Coach
Shelly, as pessimistic as ever,
thinks the Huskies will have to
work hard to better last year 's record. We must admit that unfavorable weather over the past few
weeks has been somewhat of a
hindrance to the training program,
but we're sure the Huskies will give
a favorable account of themselves
once the season gets underway.

Practice Teachers
Visit Harrisb urg
Education Offices
Twenty-five" practice teachers of
BSTC left the college early Friday
morning, March 28, to visit the
Pennsylvania State Education Association and the State Department
of Public Instruction offices in Harrisburg. The senior students are
members of* the weekly professional practicum class instructed by
Dr. George J. Fike, who accompanied them on the tour.
At ten o'clock in the morning, the
group met at the PSEA building.
Miss Lucy Valero, former president
of the organization, discussed such
topics as school law, ethics, professional responsibility, and the extent
and expansion of services rendered
to the teaching profession by the
PSEA. She described the building
expansion program designed to
meet better the needs of the state,
and aswered student directed questions on the PSEA role in educaL1U11.
The editor of the PSEA Journal
then directed a tour of the editing
f acilities of the state education
magazine.
At one o'clock the students visited the State Department of Public
Instruction. State officials from the
Bureaus of Certification , Curriculum, and Supervision and Secondary Education discussed matters
pertaining to their respective divisions. Students were introduced to
supervisory and curricular material available for use in the teacher's individual instructional proerram.
The trip was designed to give the
students a grasp of education at
the state level and education as a
state function. The students, by
planning, attending, and reporting
on the tour, expect to understand
the services rendered to teachers
and the teaching profession in general by these state officials ; as beginning teachers next year, t hey
expect to utilize these services.
The visit to PSEA headquarters
was planned by a student committee including Charles Jessup, chairman ; Annette Roush, and Raymond
Trump. Carl Shively, chairman,
worked with Walter Collins and
William Hughes to plan the trip to
the Department of Public Instruction.
Rabinofs in Town
Again April 15th
Benno and Sylvia Rabinof , the
internationally famous violin-piano
team, will perform in Bloomsburg
on April 15 at the High School Auditorium as part of their thirteenth
nationwide tour. Two seasons ago
they made a brilliant tour of the
European con tinent , with a "side
trip " to Isr ael, where they were
heard in recital. Last season, at the
invitation of the International Exchange Program of A.N.T.A., they
toured the near East. This season
the Rabinofs will visit Mexico and
tour the United States twice before returning to Europe in the late
spring.
Mr. Rabinof began his career under the guidance of the famous
teacher, Leopold Auer, when he
made his debut in Carnegie Hall at
the age of nineteen , with the New
York Philharmonic under the baton
of Auer. Since that bow, Rabinof
has been too well known to need
introduction to audiences either
here or abroad. He has appeared as
soloist with leading symphony
orchestras in the United States,
Canada, and Europe, and has made
regular radio appearances over the
national networks.
Sylvia Rabinof accompanies her
husband on the piano enurely from
memory. Before her New York debut in Town Hall, she enjoy ed a
successful career of her own in
Paris and in Switzerland as concert
soloist. She is also a composer, with
a children's operetta and a suite
for chamber orchestra among her
works.
