"An Evening With Basil Rathbone"
Is Second in BSC Lecture Series

BSC will spend "An Evening With Basil Rathbone," Friday, February
10, 1961, in Carv er Au ditori u m . The second in a series of programs
chosen by the Student-Faculty Assembly and Evening Entertainment
Committee, will begin at 8:15 p.m. The program will be open to the
public ; tickets may be purchased at the door at $1 per person on the
night of the performance. Students and faculty members will be admitted free, upon presentation of their identification cards.

Poetry Should Be rerrormeu
Mr. Rathbone will offer a dramatic presentation of works from the
pens of such literary giants as Edgar Allen Poe, Sir Arth ur Con an Doyle ,
Shakespeare , Browning, Housman, and others. The distinguished dramatist , who has made the stage his life , finds a very close link between
theatrical writing and other forms of literature, especially poetry. It's his
belief that poetry, rather than being read , is something to be performed.
In explaining his dramatic approach to poetry, Mr. Rathbone
points out that "Although the poet
uses words, he is in many ways a
composer, in that his words are

BLOOMSBURG M tM MOVE

The Minority Voice

OVER-WEIGHT
Misinterpretation and misadministration of the BSC overweight
ruling have so confused the student body that one wonders if it might
be an improvement to junk most of the present program and begin
again.
Many of the students affected by this ruling p icture themselves as
a persecuted minority reduced to a diet of celery and yogurt. Some
administrators of the overweight p lan are unnecessarily zealous as
guardians of the health and potentialities of the pudgy and plump.
The ruling itself states only that significant improvemen t should be
made in the reduction of weight for those who have been judged overweight by the college physician. It does not say that the recommended
optimum weight must be reached by the time of student teaching or
graduation. Dean Hoch stated , "No teaching certificates have been
withheld because of overweight."
The ruling, however, had been altered either by, or before it reached
college nurses. Reliable sources have informed us that some "heavies"
have been warned that permission to student teach and teaching certificates would not be granted if they did not reach their optimum
weight. This information came as quite a shock to juniors who have
only a year to diet.
Freshmen now receive a note which reads, "This preliminary approval is also contingent upon physical fitness, including normal weig ht
level, as determined by our college ph ysicians prior to registrat ion."
They, at least, are forewarned.
Forceful suggestion that overweight is detrimental to health and
personal attractiveness is, in itself , sensible and good. Other reasons
advanced to support the ruling are also acceptable. All of them are
closely allied with professional appearance and professional promise.
A teacher with normal weight, it is felt, is more likely to look professional in the classroom and is a better insurance risk for school districts. Overweight graduates are not particularly beneficial to college
prestige.
The reasons for the ruling are clear , but reasons for the method of
administration are muddled and perhaps short-sighted.
Isn't it paradoxical that an educational institution cannot educate
even a small part of its student body to make a wise, ameliorative
change? Certainly we could expect the "leaders of tomorrow's youth"
to see for themselves the advantages of a reduction in weight. A program based upon intelligent advice for solving the problem and a caution about narrowing j ob opportunities seems a more sensible way to
approach those with an abundance of avoirdupois. If the number of
teaching positions is drastically reduced for the overweight , heavy students, informed of the situation, could p lan their own course of action.
One's weight is, after all, more a personal than professional matter.
To evaluate the ruling further, we might ask, "What will be the
results?"
The results, in our estimation, do not justify the means (threats to
withhold teaching certificates and to refuse permission to student
teach) . Indignation often replaces the initial reaction of surprise, and
the bi-weekly checkup often antagonizes rathe r than aids. A healthy
attitude toward the school does not always develop.
Will the effects of the ruling remain after graduation and decrease
.the number of overweight teachers in the field who have graduated
from Bloomsburg? We doubt it. In a few exceptional cases students
plan extensive programs for reducing (with insufficient counseling) ,
but for most, the crash diet seems less painful to reach the desired
goal. Short-term diets do not substantially change eating habits, and
we doubt if many would like to stay on Metrecal for years. *We anticipate greeting chubby classmates at the first Homecoming after graduation and later. (One "heavy" claims that his last will and testament
contains a clause demanding that an apple be placed in his mouth at
the time of his viewing.)
The overweight ruling is palatable, but the present method of administration deserves reconsideration and change.

Key West Bound Travel to India - See the Orient

Chris Nagle
As deep snow plagues the campus in truly old-fashioned winter
style, many of us dream of the pleasures of a few relaxing weeks in the
sunny Southland.
For one such BSC student this
dream will become real and the
snow will diminish to a memory as
he says goodby to Bloomsburg and
leaves for Key West, Florida. Certainly Chris Nagle will be thinking
of us as he enjoy s the warm sunshine of the South.
Chris, a Junior and one time resident of Key West, is returning to
Florida, where, after undergoing
an operation, he plans to work on a
shrimp boat in the Atlantic with
hopes of earning enough to finance
his return to college.
Interupted Again
This will be the second time
Chris 's educational pursuits have
been interrupted . While living in
Key West, Chris lef t high school
in his junior year and j oined the
Marine Corps. The next three years
proved very interesting for him.
While in the Amphibian branch he
traveled in Europe, visiting the
countries of Italy, Turkey, Fran ce,
and Gibraltar. Leaving the service,
Chris returned to Key West and
finish ed the requirements for high
school graduation. Then in 1959, he
moved with his parents to Philadelphia. The knowledge he gained
while in the Amphibian branch plus
a desire to become a teacher attracted Chris to Bloomsburg. While
studying here his interest in biological science has grown and someday he plans to enter a program ,
specializing in Oceanography.

With three years of college behind him Chris again plans to interrupt his education , again out of
necessity. Life/ for Chris has certainly been varied and rather unusual, but he still looks forward to
the time when he may return to
Bloomsburg and complete the requirements for his B.S. degree.
Good Luck, Chris.

Karen Haywood

Creating a pitiful scene were the
lepers begging for alms. They often
placed a baby beside them to attract attention and arouse sympathy. Rickshaws were the chief
method of transportation for the
average man. The very wealthy
often possessed a 1940 automobile.
Oxcarts were used if heavier goods
were to be carried. This traffic , undoubtedly, created a congestion
problem. But it was all handled
quit e efficiently by uniformed policemen — each one riding a
"souped up " English bike.
The Indian homes all had mud
walls, palm-thatched roofs , and
contained only one room. There
were no partitions. Thus, conditions
became crowded. Sanitation methods were practiced very little or
not at all.
Every afternoon, a siest a, similar to that of the Spaniards , was
held from noon until four o'clock.
It was a time for general relaxation or discussion.
The school which Karen attended was a co-ed missionary boarding school in Kadaikanal , 500 miles
north of her parents' mission. It
was interdenominational, designed
specifically for children of missionaries. Rising 7000 feet above sea
level, it was spread over a large
area of land overlooking the lowlands, Approximately two miles
away was an observatory, which is
known to many scientists. The
school housed 300 children nine
months of the year. Their system
of instruction followed that of the
state of Ilinois; the subjects were
the same. The atmosphere was
very homelike. The instructors
were not only teachers , but friends
as well. Classes were in session
from January to October. A variety
of nationalities were seen among
the teachers — Czechoslovakian,
Canadian and American. When
school wa s not in session , during
November and December, Ka ren
lived with her parents at the mission.
An incident Karen will always
remember was here elephant ride
through the jungle. It took place
one day during a two-week vacation
in May. The Government Game
Preserve provided three elephants
for a party of missionaries. It was
rather frightening perched on such
a monstrous creature, bobbin g back
and forth , up and down, and dodging squealing monkeys or hungry
tigers.
In May, 1957, when the Hay woods
naa ruinnea tneir mission, tney departed for home by way of the European countries. They stayed seventeen days in Italy. It was here
that Karen spent the most enjoy able part of her trip—eating spaghetti nigh t and day.

They sailed in October of that
year by freighter. Their first taste
of the Orient was Karachi, Pakistan , where they first saw that typical character of the East—the
camel. They had heard that this
was the one to avoid; he had the
habit of biting. But to their fortune, it was a tame one and they
escaped any harm.
The final stop, which was to be
their home, was Guntur, in southern India. During ther stay, they
lived in a mission bungalow as did
about twenty other missionaries
and their f amilies.
Street Scene
"The street scenes were the most
noticeable difference," Karen remarked. In the shopping center,
called the bazaar, each different
type of article was sold in a special
section. One area offered hardware,
another fruit , and another yard
goods. All varied in prices according to quality. The meat, hanging
from ra cks , was covered with flies
and dripping with blood, ready to
be purchased by a housewife doing
her grocery shopping. The barber
also had his establishment. While
customers relaxed on a rock, similar to a curbstone, he trimmed their
hair in the latest style via straight
razor. One of the necessities of a
Waller Hall girl, the familiar shower slippers, was even worn in India. An experienced leather craftsman expertly cut out the sandles
"while U-wait" in his section of
the bazaar. The village well was another center of attraction. Since no
one was fortunate enough to have
indoor plumbing, all water for
drinking, cooking, and bathing had
to be carried. Another novel sight
was the snake charmer, who attracted anyone brave enough to
watch a defanged cobra slither up
his arm and around his neck. descendants of The Bounty at Pitcairn , and by studying customs and *

Reserves See Action
All ten Huskies saw plenty of action in this encounter as the defense minded Huskies "swished
the nets" time and time again for
a new season high of 98 points.
Bloom's reserves reminded one of
the Boston Celtics as they more
than held their own against the
Bald Eagles. Freshman Jim McKinley, who had 9 points, Jerry Doemling, who cleared both backboards
effectively, Jeff Garrison , who led
the J. V.'s to vi ctory , and veterans
Pete Periaiis and Barney Gatski,
showed the Bloom fan s t h at t here
is no reason to become alarmed
when Coach Foster goes to his
bench for players as he has done
all season.
Huskies Now 4-3
This victory brings Bloom 's
court record over the .500 mark at
four wins and 3 losses. In other recent games, Bloom won at Kutztown 56-54, lost at Mansfield 8357, and lost a close one at home
60-57 to Kings College.
The next home game for the
courtmen will be with Cheyney,
February 4. It will be the firs t of
five consecutive home games coming after the semester break.

Two questions have been raised lately by many local "hoop " fans,
"Why has Dick Lloyd's scoring slacked off , and why have the BSC
Hu skies, who have their three "big gu ns" back from last year, been unable to win consistently ? "
After deliberating much time on this subj ect and consulting various
people whom I thought might supply me with some info., I have come
up with the possible answers.
Maybe I'm oversimplifying this thing, but it seems that the change
of coaches and more important the change of systems has forced a period of adj ustment for all concerned. Last year it was a matter of individuals shooting when they saw an opening, but this season the shooting is being done in a planned and organized manner. This is probably
why we find fellows like "Flip" Houser, "Goof" Ruppert and others j oining Dick Lloyd in the double figures bracket consistently.
On paper this new style does not seem to be working, but I feel that
it's only a matter of time before it does. Why do I say that ? Well surely
a well-organized, deliberate type of play is certainly bound to be more
effective in the long run than organized mayhem will ever be.
I also feel that Coach Foster is indeed a welcome addition to the
college as I understand that he's the type that looks after his men. This
certainly makes him a counterpart of Coach Houk, who is also a strong
advocate of this idea.
I'm glad to see that the coaches are becoming more concerned with
the individuals around here, because any good leader will tell you that
you can always get a man's maximum effort when you let him know
that he is respected as an individual.
Sport's Stor y on the National Scene
Recently, Norm Van Brocklin announced his retirement before playing in his last game, the Pro Bowl.
While viewing this game, in which he completed 18 out of 30 passes
for 305 yds. and two touchdowns (figures approximate) , many people
who were viewing this contest with me voiced the opinion that they
thought Norm owed it to himself and to the fans to continue playing
for at least a few more seasons.
Now whether he owes it to himself to continue or not I don't know,
but when it comes to owing anything to the fans, this is debatable.
In 1931, the Phila. A's had one of the greatest ball clubs in the history
of baseball. At least five members of this squad made Baseball's Hall of
Fame. With a squad like that you'd think the fans would flock to see
them play. This was not the case. In fact, attendance was so bad that
Connie Mack had to split up this squad in order to save the organization
from going bankrupt.
While playing for the Phillies, Del Ennis set the club's all time R.B.I,
and home run records. Yet everytime he would come to bat he would be
"booed" by his so-called loyal Phila. fans. Of course there have been
many other cases of this treatment , namely that given to such all-time
greats as Ted Williams, Joe Dimaggio, and even the greatest of them all,
Babe Ruth.
Therefore, assuming that the fans are inappreciative, what does the
athlete owe to his sport ? From my point of view, he must play to the
best of his ability mainly because his teammates are depending on him,
and secondly to assure himself a future in the sport. To the fickle fan ,
I'd say he owes nothing.
