Quarterly System Considered for BSC in Future
r
Sop h Dance Set
In Victorian Era -
Non- convention is the Sophomore
idea of success. And so the class of
1963 supports this idea with the
theme" "Ye Olde Christmas" and extensive plans for the Sophomore
Cotillion to be held Friday, December 2, I960 , in Centennial Gymnasium irom 8:30-11:30 p.m. "Music
that is sure to please " will be pro vided by Johnny Ni colosi and his
orchestra.
Pa ul B i n g a m a n and Dorothy
Sta n ton , as co-chairmen of the decoration committee, have drawn up
the plans for a new and different
decorum. The essence of the "Ye
Olde Christmas" theme is its Victorian ballroom with a blue , violet ,
and silver color scheme. To compliment this theme the dress has been
noted as cocktail dress or formal.
Co-ordinator M a n u a l Gonzales
has included on his staff these committee heads: Joanne Tenzyk and
Wanda Keine, invitation-program
committee; Faye Scheidt and Hazel
Hunley, finance-publicity committee; Warren Ozmanski, en t ertainment; and Hazel Crain, refreshments .
The orchestra of.Johnny Nicolosi
includes a fourteen piece outfit
featurin g a male and female vocalist . Nicolosi , with arrangements by
Sy Oliver , is from the Williamsport
area and has just received a rating
as one of the top ion dance bands in
the country .
Two Women 's Dorm s
On Drawing Board
President Andr uss stated that
two new girls' dormitories which
will house 500 girls are being
pl anned for the near future.
The tent ative site for these dormitories is facing Second Street
across f rom Long Porch. They are
being designed by Eschvach, Polinger, Stevens and Bruder. The cost
for th ese buildings will be $1,790,000. They will have three floors and
a basement.
A study is presently being conducted to consider the possibility of
havi ng a bath between every two
rooms. The space available and cost

Per centage or Grads
In Teaching on Rise
Statistics reported by the Office
of Admissions show that 91% of the
available students of the Class of
1960 are teaching. This percentage
is slightly higher than the last two
years.
Of a total of 305 students , 289 are
available for teaching. Of those student s who are not teaching 18 are
in other fields , 7 are in graduate
school , 10 are in the Armed Services, and 5 women are married and
not available for teaching.
The average salary range Is
f?3600-!j !5400 with the average beJ-' inning salary being $4173. The beginning salary for teachers accepting positions out of state is $382
'-.ore than in Pennsylvania.
The office also reported that they
have received 1320 applications.
They expect to accept 600 or more
students depending on the number
returning.

CEC Representatives Suggest New
Convention Delegate Expense Plan
The Alpha Chapter of the Council for Exceptional Children was
not only well represented at the
state convention of the Pennsylvania Federation of C.E.C., "but
made an important contribution as
well.
Betty Brooker, treasurer of the
BSC Council for Exceptional Children , was instrument al in introducing a motion approved by the federation. This motion provided that
students themselves should not be
required to meet the expenses of
attending the state conventions.
The federa tion accepted the motion
with the feeling that this would
make it easier for students to attend.
Fraternity Plans To
Visit Modern Office
At the regular monthly meeting
of Pi Omega Pi it was decided that
the members of the fraternity
would visit the business offices
of the Veteran 's Administration
Building in Wilkes-Barre. This
building has the reputation for being the most completely automated
offi ces in the area in which students
can observe modern business proced u res . The date for the visit has
been tenatively set sometime in

Two Assemblies
Referendum Passed by Student Body;
Council AddsBuckingham,McCauslin
The Bloomsburg State College community voted to limit the number
of faculty members on College Council to five: Dean of Instruction ,
Dean of Women , Dean of Men, Dean of Students , and Director of Public
Relations.
Voting was held on Tuesday, November 15, and Thursday, November
17, at the entrance to Husky Lounge. Balloting was originally scheduled
only for Tuesday, but a poor turnout made it necessary to open the polls
again on Thursday .
As a result of the referendum, the directors of the curricula have
been dropped from Council, and the Dean of Students and the Director
of Public Relations have been added .
The change will become effective immediately.

AD LIB
WHAT'S WITH WHO'S WHO
Within a few weeks BSC nominees for WHO'S WHO AMONG
STUDENTS IN AMERICAN UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES will
receive confirmation from Tuscaloosa , Alabama, and the 1960-61 list will
become available for publication. Nineteen preliminary nominations
have been made through national headquarters allowed Bloomsburg
State College to nominate a maximum of twenty-seven seniors.
WHO'S WHO AMOUNG STUDENTS IN AMERICAN UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES is a national publication which is designed ,
according to the brochure, as "one national basis of recognition for
college students." Howev er , WHO'S WHO must also be recognized as
a business venture. The book published by the organization retails for
$10, and student keys sell for $6 and $10. Names of nominees are mailed
to prospective employers and graduate schools.
National headquarters imposes few restrictions upon selection procedures. Only seniors are nominated from Bloomsburg, but the brochure
states, "College juniors, seniors, and students enrolled in graduate
courses are eligible for nomination." The brochure continues, "In the
schools there is an increasing tendency to use objectives point systems
for selecting nominees."
At Bloomsburg, nominees for WHO'S WHO are chosen by the Dean
of Instruction, Directors of the curricula, the Deans of Men and Women,
and the Dean of Students. Students are selected, Dean Hoch stated , on
the basis of scholarship, activities on campus, and professional promise.
"I was chosen for WHO'S WHO IN AMERICAN UNIVERSITIES
AND COLLEGES" sounds very impressive, but how much does it mean ?
At BSC it means a great deal. Those rej ected for nomination usually cry
out against WHO'S WHO, but this only succeeds in making membership
seem more desirable.
With great pains College Council devised the key point system to
give recognition to those who have made worthwhile contributions to
BSC. In Senior Honor Assembly President Andruss calls a service key
the highest honor a student can receive at Bloomsburg. The administration recognizes service keys as the highest honor, but most college
students do not. Service keys are considered secondary awards. Agreed,
the key point system has inequalities, but it could be adj usted to give
more accurate record of student activities. For the past two years, fi v e
pages of the OBITER have been devoted to WHO'S WHO. Even this
paper gives more coverage to WHO'S WHO because it has more prestige
in the eyes of the student body.
Key points aim for nearly complete obj ectivity. The selection of
WHO'S WHO at Bloomsburg is subj ective.
We do not accuse the WHO'S WHO committee of poor choices. We
realize that the first six or seven nominations are probably easily made,
but that after the first group has been chosen it becomes a matter of
choosing one out of many with similar qualifications.
Thus we have, in last year 's WHO'S WHO, one nominee who, according to the OBITER, belonged to three organizations in which membership is compulsory; participated in three clubs, one fraternity ; worked for two publications; and served on one senior committee. The record
seems impressive until one realizes that these activities were spread
over four years and that the individual was not a president or leader
of any of the groups. We do not have at our fingertips the scholastic
record nor can we judge professional promise, but those would have to
be great to outweigh activities on campus.
Another nominee belonged to three organizations compulsory for the
area of concentration, ser ved on two CGA commit t ees, and worked on
two publications. Once again, the nominee did not lead any organization.
Another served on two committees, belong to two fraternities, and
participated in two compulsory organizations. The nominee did not lead
any organization.
Many of those selected were worthy of the honor, bu t we wonder if
the large quot a includes some whose merit is questionable.
This writer suggested an honor system for perhaps a half dozen
seniors to an administrative official. Students would be required to have
a minimum number of key points in order to be considered by a faculty
. committee. The committee would discuss those eligible and narrow the
field to a small number. The official balked at the proposal because he
had seen a similar system abused at other colleges. It appears that
any honor program can be misused, but we can choose the lesser of the
evils.
WHO'S WHO is accepted at BSC as a reward for four years of outstanding achievement , but , throughout the nation last year, 5,577 education students were listed. Key points have been shoved into the background because of the prestige associated with a national publication.
This is lamentable.
We should strive for the future to develop equitable and valuable
senior awards at BSC, either through the present key point system or
through a new program.

Letters
. . to the Editor
Dear Editor,
DOWN WITH THE PSEUDOINTELLECTUAL ! This I should
like to see happen at BSC. Offering
a thought to the readers, I would
like to know how other schools cope
with their little group of pseudointellectuals. This is of interest to
me as we have one such group here
at school (of which I am not , I regret to say, a member). These socalled i n tell ect u al s look down on an
individual who is having difficulty
finding a suitable word for the completion of hi s sen ten ce, or one who
does not receive an A pl u s fo r an
English theme. What gives them
thi s right ? At least our students
are learning!
Supposedly profound discussions
over coffee and cigarettes in Husky
Lounge seem to* be the trademark
of our high minds at BSC. To me,
those discussions should be restricted to the lounge or some remote
place lest one of our own Jack
Korouacs decides to comment: upon
one of his ideas to the general public. This, I tear , could prove disastrous for they usually do not know
enough about the subj ect . For instance, in discussing some literary
work such as Loll t a, our minor
geniuses may know only a few isolated facts on why it was written
or what, the author is really trying
to say; yet they will continue to
expound upon the subj ect until
their wind gives out or they realize
some one listening knows more
about it and can call their bluff.
Not only would they bo the laugh ing stock of BSG, but his comments
could have a detrimental effect on
the opinions held by others of our
"normal" students. For this reason ,
I feel we should take drastic stops
to enlighten these psoudo-intollectuaJs.
Before you , as the reader, jump
to conclusions, I should like to explain that I am not against anyone
or any group holding intelligent discontinued on page 4)

Even Students Say
"A Teacher's Job Is Not Easy"
Did you ever stop to think of how much your teachers go through
every day ju st to give you an education ?
It gets quite boring at times sitting there listening to the teacher's
voice drone on and on about some subj ect that has you mixed up any- ,
way, but how would you like to teach that same subj ect over and over
to as many as five or six classes a day ? Besides showing a lack of
courtesy and respect when you don 't pay attention in class, you are
losing out on a lot of valuable information which you 'll wish you had
learned later on. Your teachers also have to put up with wise cracks,
fresh remarks, cracking gum , and numerous other annoyances, besides
extremely bad manners and impudence.
It' s j ust the beginning of the year, so how about starting the term
off right by showing your teachers more respect and courtesy. Even if
you don't like a subj ect put all your interest into it, and you'll find that
it. really isn't so bad. Your teachers will be a lot happier if they know
they haven't wasted their valuable time and effort, and if they know
that there were some who were interested and who actually learned!

Radio station WBRX, in cooperation with the Commuters Column in the Maroon and Gold, has
introduced a new radio program in
order to inform the people of this
area , as well as the students, of the
happenings and current interests of
the college. The program is broadcast every Sunday at 12:15 p.m.
with Bernie Search and Macyle
Phillips as the program coordina tors.
Although the weekly program
started as an outgrowth of the
Comm u ter s column , the ultimate
aim of the program is to use this
media as an official public relations
nutint
So f ar , the form at of the program
has been on the order of informal
interviews with different campus
personalities. One of the past broadcasts featured representatives of
th e f ootb all te am , Ed Cocco , Bob
Christina and Moses Scott . Tom
Little appeared in one broadcast in
order to explain his j udo exhibition.

Students have been complaining
about the pressure of the past

.t-iave you caugni yourseu recently feeling that someone was watching your every move ? You, and
many other students at Bloomsburg
State College will probably be surprised to learn that you have been
under psychological investigation
for the past few weeks by a group
of highly competent psychologists.
Coming from various parts of Europe, th ese do ctors were flown into
Bloomsburg to study BSC students
as to how they compared , either
favorably or unfavorably, to th e
college students throughout the nation.

The leader of the research team ,
Dr. Adolf von Auchinschloss, j; native of Vienna, finished the maj ority of the report last week and
rumor has it that the report is on
the President's desk at this moment.
At a recent M&G interview, Dr.
Auchinschloss stated that although
the study should have been finished
by this date, a rather puzzling situation has shown itself , and the investigation will have to be continued. In regard to the portion of the
investigation already completed,
the renowned doctor said "Ya, der
students are gut kids. Dey are just
like all the other college students.
Dey f all gesleepin' in der classenzimmer, dey gespiel der cards in der
lounge, many go geboozin ' on der
weekends, ya, der kids are normal!"
It was also learned that the part
of the investigation still under observation was the diversity of social
activity held in Waller Hall lobby
every night of the week at approximately 11:50 p.m. The basis of th-2
problem seems to lie in the fact that
the students under observation are
extremely uncooperative. Some few
even showed outright aggression .
In fact , Dr. Auchinschloss still
carries the scar inflicted when "an
athletically inclined individual took
up one of his crutches unt gethrewen dem at mineself." Not only did
the doctor receive extensive injuries , but the piants behind which he
was observing the students were

No one knows the hardships of traveling better than the commuters.
Plagued from fall to spring with flat tires, overheated radiators, and
cracked oil pans, the commuters somehow manage to arrive for classes.
Bernie Search, a commuter from Berwick and a veteran of thousands
of commuting miles, has some advice to add to that whicli has been
presented by the National Safety Council, and AAA , and the nation 's
newspapers.
"Over the river and through the woods," — Yes, it' s th at time again
and we'll all be leaving good old BSC to head for home. There 's one
obvious difference in this day and age, though , we 're not driving a horse
and buggy. The horses we'll be driving will range anywhere from 90
to 250, a nd th a t' s power in any man 's language. Our means of transportation is the scientific mechanical marvel, the automobile, either our
own or our parents. These inventions are not as smart as the horse, for
if you can 't find your way home, the car sure won't. There are compensations; to be sure. We have power steering and it's very efficient. Little
effort is expended in steering a few thousand pounds at break-neck
speed . Only one finger is needed. The rest of that hand can be used for
a cigarette and the other hand , well . . . Then too, there are power
brakes. They have worked every time, so far. We have power windows,
power seats and j ust plain power power. Now I ask you, what are all
those horses doing under the hood if not to see j ust how fast the
old buggy will go?
I am contin ually baffled with our modern methods. Ever since the
scientists have realized that man will soon be able to travel in space ,
t hey have been training the most nearly perfect specimens of humanity
to operate their ingeni us inventions for travel. No ordinary human will
do. No sir! And money is no obj ect when training these space-men,

Modern Languages Quicken Growing
Pace; Laboratories Expected Soon
One year ago the student enrollment in the French classes totaled
26; Spanish classes, 19. At present,
63 students are taking French and
72 are taking Spanish. The increase
in interest in the langu age field has
necessitated a more intensified pro gram at BSC. With the revisions of
curriculum , students in the elementary division are now required
to choose 15 hours of a special field ,
one ol wmen is loreign languages.
"Goging Somewhere"
"The language department is going somwhere!" Mr. Fenstemaker ,
who has been teaching French;
Spanish , and Latin at the college
since 1926 is very optimistic for the
the f uture of languages. Mr. Montgomery has been added to the faculty as professor of Spanish. He has
considerable practical experience
with Spanish in Puerto Rico, Mexico, and Cuba and wishes to provide
more of this type of learning (conversational-direct method ) for the
students.
T>an tfuatf<> Labs Due
Many new items are being considered in order to help students
gain a speaking knowledge of i
language. Language labs are under
consideration for Science Hall. Recently Mr. Fenstemaker , Mr. Montgomery, Dr. Seronsy, and Mr.
Piotrowski toured the Education
Building of the State Department
at Harrisburg in order to view the
exhibits on labs.
'Depending on the available funds ,
the oral method may bo established
at BSC. No definite time or type of
lab has been decided. Tentative
plans involve 30 cubicles which will
include mikes, tape recorders , and
earphones. They will enable the
student to listen to master tapes,
record his own responses, and then
have an opportunity to hear both.
Since the federal government is
providing funds for high schools to
establish these labs, it will be necessary to provide teachers who are
qualified in this area.

(Intercollegiate Press) — More intensive preparation in academic
subj ects and fewer education courses will be required in a completely
revised program of teacher education this fall at Marquette University. The new program for prospective elementary and secondary
teachers has been in preparation
for three years and features a new
sequence of professional courses.
Four basic courses will be required of all students minoring in education. Elementary teaching candidates will also take methods of
teaching reading, art, and music ,
plus their academic maj or and
specified courses in English, history,
and mathematics.
Students preparing to teach in
high schools will concentrate on the
subj ects they plan to teach , and ,
with the exception of mathematics
and science maj ors, will be limited
to two teaching fields.
The four basic education courses
in the professional sequence ( and
the only education courses required
for secondary candidates) are human development and learning,
teaching methods, student teaching, and integration of educational
tneory.

CEC Representatives Suggest New
Convention Delegate Expense Plan
The Alpha Chapter of the Council for Exceptional Children was
not only well represented at the
state convention of the Pennsylvania Federation of C.E.C., "but
made an important contribution as
well.
Betty Brooker, treasurer of the
BSC Council for Exceptional Children , was instrument al in introducing a motion approved by the federation. This motion provided that
students themselves should not be
required to meet the expenses of
attending the state conventions.
The federa tion accepted the motion
with the feeling that this would
make it easier for students to attend.

Referendum Passed by Student Body;
Council AddsBuckingham,McCauslin
The Bloomsburg State College community voted to limit the number
of faculty members on College Council to five: Dean of Instruction ,
Dean of Women , Dean of Men, Dean of Students , and Director of Public
Relations.
Voting was held on Tuesday, November 15, and Thursday, November
17, at the entrance to Husky Lounge. Balloting was originally scheduled
only for Tuesday, but a poor turnout made it necessary to open the polls
again on Thursday .
As a result of the referendum, the directors of the curricula have
been dropped from Council, and the Dean of Students and the Director
of Public Relations have been added .
The change will become effective immediately.

WHAT'S WITH WHO'S WHO
Within a few weeks BSC nominees for WHO'S WHO AMONG
STUDENTS IN AMERICAN UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES will
receive confirmation from Tuscaloosa , Alabama, and the 1960-61 list will
become available for publication. Nineteen preliminary nominations
have been made through national headquarters allowed Bloomsburg
State College to nominate a maximum of twenty-seven seniors.
WHO'S WHO AMOUNG STUDENTS IN AMERICAN UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES is a national publication which is designed ,
according to the brochure, as "one national basis of recognition for
college students." Howev er , WHO'S WHO must also be recognized as
a business venture. The book published by the organization retails for
$10, and student keys sell for $6 and $10. Names of nominees are mailed
to prospective employers and graduate schools.
National headquarters imposes few restrictions upon selection procedures. Only seniors are nominated from Bloomsburg, but the brochure
states, "College juniors, seniors, and students enrolled in graduate
courses are eligible for nomination." The brochure continues, "In the
schools there is an increasing tendency to use objectives point systems
for selecting nominees."
At Bloomsburg, nominees for WHO'S WHO are chosen by the Dean
of Instruction, Directors of the curricula, the Deans of Men and Women,
and the Dean of Students. Students are selected, Dean Hoch stated , on
the basis of scholarship, activities on campus, and professional promise.
"I was chosen for WHO'S WHO IN AMERICAN UNIVERSITIES
AND COLLEGES" sounds very impressive, but how much does it mean ?
At BSC it means a great deal. Those rej ected for nomination usually cry
out against WHO'S WHO, but this only succeeds in making membership
seem more desirable.
With great pains College Council devised the key point system to
give recognition to those who have made worthwhile contributions to
BSC. In Senior Honor Assembly President Andruss calls a service key
the highest honor a student can receive at Bloomsburg. The administration recognizes service keys as the highest honor, but most college
students do not. Service keys are considered secondary awards. Agreed,
the key point system has inequalities, but it could be adj usted to give
more accurate record of student activities. For the past two years, fi v e
pages of the OBITER have been devoted to WHO'S WHO. Even this
paper gives more coverage to WHO'S WHO because it has more prestige
in the eyes of the student body.
Key points aim for nearly complete obj ectivity. The selection of
WHO'S WHO at Bloomsburg is subj ective.
We do not accuse the WHO'S WHO committee of poor choices. We
realize that the first six or seven nominations are probably easily made,
but that after the first group has been chosen it becomes a matter of
choosing one out of many with similar qualifications.
Thus we have, in last year 's WHO'S WHO, one nominee who, according to the OBITER, belonged to three organizations in which membership is compulsory; participated in three clubs, one fraternity ; worked for two publications; and served on one senior committee. The record
seems impressive until one realizes that these activities were spread
over four years and that the individual was not a president or leader
of any of the groups. We do not have at our fingertips the scholastic
record nor can we judge professional promise, but those would have to
be great to outweigh activities on campus.
Another nominee belonged to three organizations compulsory for the
area of concentration, ser ved on two CGA commit t ees, and worked on
two publications. Once again, the nominee did not lead any organization.
Another served on two committees, belong to two fraternities, and
participated in two compulsory organizations. The nominee did not lead
any organization.
Many of those selected were worthy of the honor, bu t we wonder if
the large quot a includes some whose merit is questionable.
This writer suggested an honor system for perhaps a half dozen
seniors to an administrative official. Students would be required to have
a minimum number of key points in order to be considered by a faculty
. committee. The committee would discuss those eligible and narrow the
field to a small number. The official balked at the proposal because he
had seen a similar system abused at other colleges. It appears that
any honor program can be misused, but we can choose the lesser of the
evils.
WHO'S WHO is accepted at BSC as a reward for four years of outstanding achievement , but , throughout the nation last year, 5,577 education students were listed. Key points have been shoved into the background because of the prestige associated with a national publication.
This is lamentable.
We should strive for the future to develop equitable and valuable
senior awards at BSC, either through the present key point system or
through a new program.

Letters
. . to the Editor
Dear Editor,
DOWN WITH THE PSEUDOINTELLECTUAL ! This I should
like to see happen at BSC. Offering
a thought to the readers, I would
like to know how other schools cope
with their little group of pseudointellectuals. This is of interest to
me as we have one such group here
at school (of which I am not , I regret to say, a member). These socalled i n tell ect u al s look down on an
individual who is having difficulty
finding a suitable word for the completion of hi s sen ten ce, or one who
does not receive an A pl u s fo r an
English theme. What gives them
thi s right ? At least our students
are learning!
Supposedly profound discussions
over coffee and cigarettes in Husky
Lounge seem to* be the trademark
of our high minds at BSC. To me,
those discussions should be restricted to the lounge or some remote
place lest one of our own Jack
Korouacs decides to comment: upon
one of his ideas to the general public. This, I tear , could prove disastrous for they usually do not know
enough about the subj ect . For instance, in discussing some literary
work such as Loll t a, our minor
geniuses may know only a few isolated facts on why it was written
or what, the author is really trying
to say; yet they will continue to
expound upon the subj ect until
their wind gives out or they realize
some one listening knows more
about it and can call their bluff.
Not only would they bo the laugh ing stock of BSG, but his comments
could have a detrimental effect on
the opinions held by others of our
"normal" students. For this reason ,
I feel we should take drastic stops
to enlighten these psoudo-intollectuaJs.
Before you , as the reader, jump
to conclusions, I should like to explain that I am not against anyone
or any group holding intelligent discontinued on page 4)

Even Students Say
"A Teacher's Job Is Not Easy"
Did you ever stop to think of how much your teachers go through
every day ju st to give you an education ?
It gets quite boring at times sitting there listening to the teacher's
voice drone on and on about some subj ect that has you mixed up any- ,
way, but how would you like to teach that same subj ect over and over
to as many as five or six classes a day ? Besides showing a lack of
courtesy and respect when you don 't pay attention in class, you are
losing out on a lot of valuable information which you 'll wish you had
learned later on. Your teachers also have to put up with wise cracks,
fresh remarks, cracking gum , and numerous other annoyances, besides
extremely bad manners and impudence.
It' s j ust the beginning of the year, so how about starting the term
off right by showing your teachers more respect and courtesy. Even if
you don't like a subj ect put all your interest into it, and you'll find that
it. really isn't so bad. Your teachers will be a lot happier if they know
they haven't wasted their valuable time and effort, and if they know
that there were some who were interested and who actually learned!

The leader of the research team ,
Dr. Adolf von Auchinschloss, j; native of Vienna, finished the maj ority of the report last week and
rumor has it that the report is on
the President's desk at this moment.
At a recent M&G interview, Dr.
Auchinschloss stated that although
the study should have been finished
by this date, a rather puzzling situation has shown itself , and the investigation will have to be continued. In regard to the portion of the
investigation already completed,
the renowned doctor said "Ya, der
students are gut kids. Dey are just
like all the other college students.
Dey f all gesleepin' in der classenzimmer, dey gespiel der cards in der
lounge, many go geboozin ' on der
weekends, ya, der kids are normal!"
It was also learned that the part
of the investigation still under observation was the diversity of social
activity held in Waller Hall lobby
every night of the week at approximately 11:50 p.m. The basis of th-2
problem seems to lie in the fact that
the students under observation are
extremely uncooperative. Some few
even showed outright aggression .
In fact , Dr. Auchinschloss still
carries the scar inflicted when "an
athletically inclined individual took
up one of his crutches unt gethrewen dem at mineself." Not only did
the doctor receive extensive injuries , but the piants behind which he
was observing the students were

No one knows the hardships of traveling better than the commuters.
Plagued from fall to spring with flat tires, overheated radiators, and
cracked oil pans, the commuters somehow manage to arrive for classes.
Bernie Search, a commuter from Berwick and a veteran of thousands
of commuting miles, has some advice to add to that whicli has been
presented by the National Safety Council, and AAA , and the nation 's
newspapers.
"Over the river and through the woods," — Yes, it' s th at time again
and we'll all be leaving good old BSC to head for home. There 's one
obvious difference in this day and age, though , we 're not driving a horse
and buggy. The horses we'll be driving will range anywhere from 90
to 250, a nd th a t' s power in any man 's language. Our means of transportation is the scientific mechanical marvel, the automobile, either our
own or our parents. These inventions are not as smart as the horse, for
if you can 't find your way home, the car sure won't. There are compensations; to be sure. We have power steering and it's very efficient. Little
effort is expended in steering a few thousand pounds at break-neck
speed . Only one finger is needed. The rest of that hand can be used for
a cigarette and the other hand , well . . . Then too, there are power
brakes. They have worked every time, so far. We have power windows,
power seats and j ust plain power power. Now I ask you, what are all
those horses doing under the hood if not to see j ust how fast the
old buggy will go?
I am contin ually baffled with our modern methods. Ever since the
scientists have realized that man will soon be able to travel in space ,
t hey have been training the most nearly perfect specimens of humanity
to operate their ingeni us inventions for travel. No ordinary human will
do. No sir! And money is no obj ect when training these space-men,
either . Perfection is the ultimate goal.
And this is the part that gets me. Lo and behold , our highways are
literally crawling with complicated results of scientific effort , the automobile, and they are being operated by common, ordinary human beings,
namely, you and I.

One year ago the student enrollment in the French classes totaled
26; Spanish classes, 19. At present,
63 students are taking French and
72 are taking Spanish. The increase
in interest in the langu age field has
necessitated a more intensified pro gram at BSC. With the revisions of
curriculum , students in the elementary division are now required
to choose 15 hours of a special field ,
one ol wmen is loreign languages.
"Goging Somewhere"
"The language department is going somwhere!" Mr. Fenstemaker ,
who has been teaching French;
Spanish , and Latin at the college
since 1926 is very optimistic for the
the f uture of languages. Mr. Montgomery has been added to the faculty as professor of Spanish. He has
considerable practical experience
with Spanish in Puerto Rico, Mexico, and Cuba and wishes to provide
more of this type of learning (conversational-direct method ) for the
students.
T>an tfuatf<> Labs Due
Many new items are being considered in order to help students
gain a speaking knowledge of i
language. Language labs are under
consideration for Science Hall. Recently Mr. Fenstemaker , Mr. Montgomery, Dr. Seronsy, and Mr.
Piotrowski toured the Education
Building of the State Department
at Harrisburg in order to view the
exhibits on labs.
'Depending on the available funds ,
the oral method may bo established
at BSC. No definite time or type of
lab has been decided. Tentative
plans involve 30 cubicles which will
include mikes, tape recorders , and
earphones. They will enable the
student to listen to master tapes,
record his own responses, and then
have an opportunity to hear both.
Since the federal government is
providing funds for high schools to
establish these labs, it will be necessary to provide teachers who are
qualified in this area.

(Intercollegiate Press) — More intensive preparation in academic
subj ects and fewer education courses will be required in a completely
revised program of teacher education this fall at Marquette University. The new program for prospective elementary and secondary
teachers has been in preparation
for three years and features a new
sequence of professional courses.
Four basic courses will be required of all students minoring in education. Elementary teaching candidates will also take methods of
teaching reading, art, and music ,
plus their academic maj or and
specified courses in English, history,
and mathematics.
Students preparing to teach in
high schools will concentrate on the
subj ects they plan to teach , and ,
with the exception of mathematics
and science maj ors, will be limited
to two teaching fields.
The four basic education courses
in the professional sequence ( and
the only education courses required
for secondary candidates) are human development and learning,
teaching methods, student teaching, and integration of educational
tneory.
Bloomsburg students become extremely disgruntled when a third
party wants to join their discussion

seems to change partners quite frequently. However, their subj ect
matter appears to remain static.
Dr . Auchinschloss would like to
emphasize the point that he and his
fellow psychologists will not rest
until the Wall Hall Study is completed. He feels positively assured
that what these students are discussing is certain to be of national
and internation al impor tan ce, else
who would the participants place so
much importance on the secrecy of
their discussions ? As the Dr.' s final
statement , he warned BSC students

Dear Editor ,
TO: Policy-forming Body of BSC:
As you undoubtedly know, the
Senior Ball for the Class of '61 is
being held on Thursday, May 25,
1961. Although wo realize that the
policy for determining the date of
this dance has been previously established and has been followed for
years, this presents a maj or problem to the members of the senior
class.
The maj ority of the students in
the senior class who would attend
the Senior Ball are pinned , engaged , or married to someone who does
not attend this college. The trend
today is not like that of previous
years when almost: everyone dated
someone from his own school. Senior men and women, for example,
often date someone who has already graduated and has entered
tho teaching profession, Because
