Fros ted Fantasy Theme for
Cotillion in Gym Tonight
"Frosted Fantasy." the 1959 Sophomore Cotillion, opens its doors
to the BSTC community tonight at 8:30. Under the direction of chairman , Margie Bower, members of the decoration committee are, at

planned for the past month.

Fraternity Tours
Coal-Mining Site

On November 17, 1959, the Gamma Theta Upsilon Fraternity made
a trip to the St. Nicholas Central
Breaker near Shenandoah. The
twe lve members attendi ng were
accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. W. B.
Sterling.
A first-hand view of how coal is
mined and processed was presented
to the students. Before the coal is
sold to the public as fuel it must go
through certain processes. First
th e coal is was h ed to remove any
impurities. Next , the coal is crushed , leavi ng di ff erent sized pieces
which are separated according to
their size. The coal that will be used
by the buyers is sprayed with red
paint to give it a speckled appearance. This is the trade mark of
the Reading Anthracite Company
whi ch owns t h e St . Nicholas Central Breaker.
The members were then taken to
the strip mines from which coal is
excavated.
In the spring the fraternity plans
to visit another coal mine where
they will see underground coal
mining as well as strip mining.

For Want of a Dime
House Is Almost Lost

SAN DIMAS , Calif., Nov. 17 — A
mother , finding her house afire , car-

ried her two children out, then
dashed 100 yards to a pay telephone
to call firemen.
She found she didn 't have a dime.
So Mrs. Brend a Lee Walker, 19,
dashed back into the burning house,
rummaged around until she found
one, ran back and made her call.
Firemen quenched the flames, but
the roof , attic and one bedroom
were damaged.
Editor 's note: This could have
happened to Waller Hall — had
it not been for the fore-sighted
efforts of the fire brigade placing dimes in campus phone
booths.
BAKE SALE

The Sigma Alpha Et a Fraternity
will hold a Bake Sale in the lobby
at the entrance to Husky Lounge
Dec. 7-11. This year interest has
been heightened by the invasion of
the kitchens by the men who want
to try their skill with the mixing
bowl and rolling pin.

Locking and unlocking doors for
girls who have forgott en their key
is the unenviable duty of Mrs. Helen Lorman, W al er Hall' s dependable housekeeper, who has served
Bloomsburg since 1954. She supervises a squad of six woman, whose
duties include preparing rooms for
incoming students, distributing linen, and in general, keeping Waller
Hall comfortable and clean.
According to Mrs. Lorman , the
one unchanging factor of Waller
Hall women is that they bring
enough clothing to outfit three girls
for a semester .

The OLD PHILOS OPHERS...

by DON and MO

¦
fc- And how was your big, big Thanksgiving parole ? Weren 't you bored
with all those mornings for sleeping-in? Didn't your heart beat a little
faster as you finally again approached the good old campii of BSTC?
(It did ? Really ? Have you had an electrocardiograph lately?) All
brave souls who ate cranberries anyway are requested to report to
either the college infirmary or thescience lab for periodic checks. (Do-ityourslf culture kits are available at the College Store.)
At any rate—all dwellers are hereby welcomed back to BSTCave !
Which brings us to the point whereat we've got. to acknowledge a fine
j ob by the Bloomsburg Players in their produ ction of "The Cave Dwellers." We could cite examples and name names—but most people seem
to prefer not to be mentioned in thi s column. Therefore , to all w ho
helped bring Saroyan to Bloomsburg—Congratulations!
-*^ In case the Sophomore Cotillion does an inefficient job of frosting
the freshmen 's fant asy about theease with which they are getting
through college, the Christmas vacation ought to finish the j ob. Freshmen will know what we mean when their parents receive those little
white envelopes. In hundreds of homes throughout BSTC-land , surprised
parents will be saying, "Oh, look ! Isn't it nice of Joe 's school to send us
a Christmas card!" Well, Joe—you 'll know . . . The next words will go
something like "Egads! Joseph , how do you explain these grades?"
Truth of the matter is, Joe, you can't explain 'em, so don't bother trying.
However , bear in mind that all major department stores operate special
refund desks for BSTC students who play it cool and use their Christmas
gifts for busfare to the nearest French Foreign Legion induction center.
(Well now that we've lost half of our readers by scaring them into
deciding to rush right off and study, we continue.)
^"Slater Cater is in the process of planning their annual , big Christmas
show at College Commons—the usual carols will be sung, the tree will
be decorated , the usual centerpiece cake has already been taken from
cold storage and is being re-frosted , and FOOD will be served. Again
this year, the proposal to have Gypsy Rose Lee present her dinner
hour "Salute to Christmas" never got past Council.
The latest Gallup Poll, conducted in the Keystone state, shows that
teachers are more unpopular than ever. Evidence cited: "Drop that
word 'Teachers' from the names of those fourteen colleges!"
Now that the movies in town are closing, we view with alarm the
fact that Waller Hall girls are left without any readily-convenient, oneword destination to use on the sign-out sheet. However, you still have :
'Grill ,' 'Tex as ,' 'Town Library, ' 'Magee Museum,' 'County Historical

until Christmas, Bloomsburg stores are open until 9:00! '

and the constant hammering of
Russian propaganda, have had more
effect on the American people than
most observers realize , according to
a survey recently completed by
Professor Nicholas Vakar , hea d of
the Russian department at Wheaton College.
The survey revealed an appalling
ignorance of pre-Soviot Russia on
at least one American campus. According to tho typical student comment in Dr. Vakar's class in Rusisian Civilization , "tho Soviets feel
satisfied , to an extent. They are
certainly better off than they were
under the czars. "
"Mr . Krushchev and his relentless propaganda crow have warped
Russian history to a point whore

Rishkofski Named Grid der of Year

¦

In order to give special recognition to outstanding athletes , the
sports staff of the Maroon and Gold has decided to select an outstanding performer in each of the six major sports and from these
individual s select an athlete of the year at the end of the school year.
The individual will be picked on the basis of performance, ability,
team p lay, attitude , reliability, and general sportsman-like traits.
The staff' s choice for BSTC's
outstanding footballer is Joe Rishkof ski, a Junior enrolled in the elementary curriculum , who hails
I'rom Hanover, Pa. Upon his arrival
at BSTC last year, he immediately
became a mainstay of Coach Blair's
eleven , turning in a banner rookie
season with line performances in
running, pass receiving, and punti ng. When spring rolled around , Joe
headed for the baseball diamond
and there sparked the team with
his hitting and fielding ftom his
second-b ase nosition.
Upon his return to the striped
turf this fall , he again resumed his
stando ut performances. At the season's final whistle, he led the squad
in scoring , pass receiving, and punting, while also turning in an outstanding job on defense. Joe was
top man in the interception department.
He rolled up a 3.6 yards-per-carry
for 74 tries , punted 42 times for a
31-yard average, snagged 23 tosses
for 300 yards and 2 TD's, and rang

playing a taller, smooth-working ballclub almost even, came home with
a moral victory if nothing else.
HUNTERS ? Conversing with Jo-Jo Blasko (in the Hazleton dialect),
we find that Jo-Jo claims to have shot an albino bear, the fir st one of it s
kind ever. Other members of the elevated lounge society are boasting, of
even greater hunting achievments.
BOWLING NEWS The BSTC bowlers will meet the Wilkes College
bowlers in a tournament the 6th of December, at 1:00 on the Midway
Lanes. The tentative line-up for the BSTC team is as follows: Tom
Paine, John Huda, Bud Weber, Gary Anderson, and Harry CriswelL
It would appear that' 'Frog" Jones is trying to be another Yukon Eric
on the mats with his unique hair-cut .
At the recent basketball scrimmage with Lewisburg Federal Penitentiary (played before a captive audience, of course), Coach Shelly
sounded perplexed at the possibility of obtaining private bath accomodations for himself. We've also heard that he is being considered as a
replacement for Jack Parr as MC of the Tonight show.
After observing the daily dinner dash through Waller Hall tunnel,
one would think BSTC has a girls' indoor track squad. Hurry, hurry,
girls—the winners will get 1000 B-Club points.
Inside information leaking out from, the Mansfield statistician, whom
we were talking to in a local—ahem—coffee shop over the holidays,
indicated Mansfield as the leading contender for the State Teacher
Basketball Championship, by virtue of their edging Penn State in a
pre-season scrimmage.
Congrats to Joe Panichello , Hank Orband, and Joe Rishofski for receiving post-season honors.
The wrestlers should not find it very hard to lose weight for the
coming season if they gat in the Collage Commons. Speaking of the
mess hall, Tom Little tells us he has already worn out two pairs of
shoes by going back and trying for seconds.
REMINDER: Let's continue the Spirit of '59 through the coming basketball, wrestling and swimming seasons.

Armstrong Hailed As ^Coolest',
Concert Deemed Successful
Louis Armstrong hit BSTC like a bomb. The venerable exponent
of jazz (venei'able because Mr. A. will be sixty years old July 4) and
his group gave a concert which will be remembered for years at
Bloomsburg.
The audience gave early signs of approval. By the time Satchmo
and his All Stars had played three numbers, many jazz enthusiasts
were keeping time to the beat , and the packed house was eagerly
responding with applause.
Need it be said that the concert
was a success ? Ticket sales went
way over the top with 1,960 paid
admissions and 2,000 in attendance.
The All Star group accompanied
him on the globe-spanning good will
tou r. Trummy Young delighted everyone with his trombone. "Peanu ts" Hucko manipulated a cool
velvet clarinet. Billy Kyle made our
own BSTC piano wish that it didn't
have to return to elementary m usic.
Mort Herbert slapped the bass with
such dexterity that the audience
could hardly wait to give him applause. Danny Barcelona, the drummer , was fantasti c. Vocalist Velma
Middleton added "largely " to the
program as she convorted about the
effl p-o

Louis and the group played many
old standards spiced with a generous helping of recent hits.
Satchmo's renditions of "Blueberry Hill," "High Society Calypso," and "Mack the Knife" were the
highlights of the program.
Satchmo and Velma combined
their talents on "Baby, It's Cold

Outside" and "That's My Desire."

Velma soloed on "St. Louis Blues , "
"S'posin' " , and "Bill Bailey. "
Billy Kyle's piano styling of
"Perdido"; Mort Herbert's bass
medley of "These Foolish Things "
and "How High the Moon"; Danny
Barcelona 's "Stompin' at the Savoy"; and clarinetist Hucko's "Autumn Leaves" brought enthusiastic
applause.
During intermission a regional
representative of Playboy magazine announced the results of the
annual Playboy Jazz Poll, and presented awards to Louis Armstrong
and the five members of the combo,
who placed among the top ten instrumentalists in American jazz.
The concert concluded with Armstrong's theme song, "Sleepy Time
Down South."
An unofficial total of profits is
$1300. Plans will be made for future
use of the money at the next C.G.A.
meeting. The financial success of
this project makes it a probability
th at another top-ranking name in
American music will appear on
campus during the second semester.

With the initiation of our chapel hours at the beginning of the semester came the startling announcement that the student body at Cheyney would be required not only to attend Chapel, but to sit in
ASSIGNED SEATS.
This is an outrage ! It is an infringement on our rights as responsible
citizens of does college. In permitting this system to operate, th£ administration has unjustly punished us by forcing our attendance as a mother
might force her child to eat spinach .

following rules : All girls will be subject to ALMOST all the whims and
wishes of the male population (within reason , of course). Girls must
take initiative in securing dates for the week . Girls will ask for dances
in the Student Union. Girls must pay for jukebox music, coffee , cokes,
etc. during the week. Opening of doors, carrying of books, and all other
courtesies usually shown by the fellows will be the responsibility of the
coeds. Girls must see that male students are properly escorted to and
from dorms during the week.

GETTYSBURG COLLEGE .*. , Indian Student Compares Schools.
Shyamkant S. Akolekar, in comparing a college in India to Gettysburg, observes that the attitudes of students toward professors is not
as respectful as it is in India. Indian students stand when their professor
enters the room and when they ask or answer questions. They ask for
the professor's permission to enter class when they are late.
(Wonder if they have 8 o'clock classes? ? ?)
