Bloodmobile Will
Visit Thursday

Musical Comedy Opens Thursday
by KEN MUSSLEMAN

On Thursd ay, Febru a ry 15, the
Red Cross Bloodmobile will make
its twelfth annu al visit to the BSC
campus. The Blocwlmobile Unit will
be set up in Centenni al Gymnasium
from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. "Walkins" from the Bloomsburg area will
be welcomed.
A student committee, headed by
Betty Scaife, has been working for
the past six weeks under the supervision of Mr. Russell Schleicher ,
Elementary Education Dept., in an
effort to sign up enough faculty,
students, and non-instructional employees to guarantee the set goal
of 300 pints.
Volunteer donors are urged to
register promptly with any member of the committee; this does not
apply to "walk-ins." Committee
includes: Betty Scaife, chairman ;
Joan Peters , Salvatore Randello,
Sarah High , Charles Jasper, Susan
Williams, Carol Tebbs, Bernadine
Ardiere, John Rockwell , Ronald
Miller, Carol DelVecchio, and William Wisor.

Final rehearsals are underway as students and faculty work together in presenting polished performance for BSC and community.
The first musical comedy to be staged at BSC will have its opening
performance on Thursday evening, February 15 at 8:15 in Carver Auditori um. The play, a recent Broadway musical, "Plain and Fancy," will
include several members of the faculty as well as students in the leading
roles. There will' be two performances, the first on Thursday, Feb. 15 at
8:15 p.m. and the second on Friday evening at the same time.
BSC's first musical will also bring together the largest cast in the
college's history — 35 members, plus an orchestra and chorus.

A Government-Of,By, and For Letter

. . to the Editor

R. BARRETT BOWER

The Community Government Association of Bloomsburg State College is one of the most powerful organizations of its kind. It has control
in almost all areas of student life and represents the students in all
aspects of college administration. In form , it is a representative democracy ; therefore, it is the responsibility of each student to choose qualified and competent students to represent them and to carry out the
responsibilities of student government.
Student Leaders in Demand
Each year there is increasing reluctance on the part of the students
to nominate individuals for the officers of College Council. If this situation cont inues to ex ist , the College administrators will be forced into
a situation where no controls by the student will be possible — simply
because of the lack of student leaders. If the students of Bloomsburg
State wish to retain the freedom they now hold in mattei-s of student
administr ation, they must continue, as they have in the past, to nominate the people that are vitally needed in the field of student administration.
Nominations Are Students' Duty
The student body has many qualified leaders who are willing to
work. It is the responsibility of the students to recognize these leaders
and nominate them for the offices of College Council or otherwise face
the alternative of having no representation in the affairs that govern
student life.
Nomination petitions for the offices of College Council can be secured
at the Council office outside Husky Lounge. The petitions are due on
February 23, 1962, and nominati ons will be held on March 1, 1962. The
primary and final elections of CGA will be held on March 13, 1962 and
March 27, 1962, respectively. — R. Barrett Bower

Application for 'King Cold' Brings

The Pennsylvania Center of Education in Politics is currently accepting application from college
students for internships this summer in the Washington, D.C. offices
of Congressmen.
The internships will begin on
Ju ne 11 or as soon thereaf t er as

levels.
All three types of internships are
open to students not graduating in
Ju ne, 1962. Those graduating in
June, 1962, may apply for the
Washington and Harrisburg internships only.
Applications and additional information may be obtained from
Dr. B. J. Shockley. Applications
must be completed and returned by
March 15. 1962.

J ob Directory Is
Now Available

A directory which lists summer
jobs for college students throughout the United States is now available.
The SUMMER EMPLOYMENT
DIRECTORY gives the names and
addresses of 1,367 organizations
which want to employ college students. It also gives the positions
open, salary, and suggestions on
how to make application—a sample
letter of application and a personal
data sheet.
Students wishing summer work
may make application to the employers listed in the directory. Employers are included at their own
request, and they invite applications from college students.
Students who wish to have a copy
of SUMMER EMPLOYMENT DIRECTORY for their own use may
obtain one by sending $3.00 to the

Well , it looks like the old sov-

ereign of winter infection, "King
Cold," is here again. An average of
about 20 cases of his naughty tricks
are being reported to the College
Infirmary daily. However, the other
members of his royal, infectious
court are not remaining dormant
as totals ranging from 60 to 125
patients who have visited the infirmary every day in the past week.
The infirmary staff includes three
nurses , Mrs. Caldwell, Mrs. Gilbert ,
and Mrs. Roth. Their 16-hour day
has been quite busy with administering treatment and medicine to
the many students and faculty
members smitten by the viruses,
aches and pains which always reign
supreme during the winter months.

IT'S A DAY

It's a day , when
Mountains lift
Heavy arms against
Translucent light,
Diffused by men
Wnosje eyes dissolve
Rays of morning.
And Great Owl s float
alone and lost.
It's a day when
Lions come down
Hollow paths of.

Water reflects shaggy
Things and fills pads
Of Death , in a time
When Lambs are on
A far shore, safe,

Over a period of a few days, the
old fountain on campus became a
spectacular sight. Students, faculty
m em bers, and visitors commented
on its beauty. Some could hardly

others in astonishment, "When did

they were given some flippant answ er like , "Oh, last night it was so
cold it just froze over."

Winter Fantasy
When I hear an answer like that,
it makes me stop and shudder! I
go to all the trouble to give the
Bloomsburg State Collegians something real pretty to look at and to
help brighten their dreary days,
and do I get any credit ? I should
say I don't! I imagine that I spent
almost a week just convincing Old
Man Winter to keep up the good
work and keep the temperature
down. You see, he was becoming exhausted and was about to go on
strike for a few weeks. However, I
won the battle, and Old Man Winter consented to help me for another month or two just so I could
give my favorite campus a little
treat.
I knew I was really going to
have to work fast if I wanted to
have a surprise of any considerable
size. I completed the j ob in five
days. I don't know when I have
ever been so tired ! I made all sizes
and shapes of crystal clear icicles
and placed them neatly in order on
the fountain ; but upon completion ,
I realized something was definitely
missing. I studied the problem all
th at day and j ust as the old town
clock struck midnight, I knew
where I could find my answer. Sure
enough, after having a cup of "icecafe " with pretty Miss Suzy Snowflake, she gladly offered her services and promised me she would
scatter her dainty snowflakes over
my carefully made icicles the very
next day.
The next morning while giving
the fountain its final check up, I
heard the students exclaim , "Isn't
it beautiful!" Of course, I felt as
proud as an icicle, as I was positive
they would know who was responsible for decorating the old fountain.
It was then I received my big let
down, and I'm still trying to recover. I j ust can't seem to make myself believe that the students at
BSC would forget me and not include me in their affairs at the only
time of the year when I can visit

wouldn't you ? I hope they have; a

NOTES and QUOTES
by SUE HALKYARD and LARRY RECLA

Grading systems, of much controversy among educators, have
changed in much the same way as our philosophies of education. At
pr ese n t , education is directed towards the development of the whole
person — his attitudes, interests, and other aspects of his behavior, as
well as academic goals of education. Efforts are being made to teach the
student "how " to think rather than merely "what" to think.
Education Js Complex
When one considers individual differences, the task of evaluation has
become a very complex and difficult task. It is much easier to measure
the tangible aspects of the' learning process. Thus, learning is usually
evaluated by means of the "curve" or "straight" percentage methods.
These systems often place the major emphasis on memorization and the
performance of academic skills. Students soon aim to give the most
importance to a grade in the course — they are learning "what" to
think , not "how" to think. It seems that a grade is primary and mastery
is secondary.
Other Ways of Grading
Some schools have tried other systems such as the "pass-fail" type
and "satisfactory-unsatisfactory. " The argument against these types is
that they f ail to provide a competitive challenge. Bright students will
do only enough work to pass — their potential will never be achieved
in this way.
Are our present grading systems an adequate and just evaluation of
a student's learni ng? Here are some of the responses made by faculty
and students:

Basketball Team
Wins and Loses

Captain of the Husk y basketball team, Dick Lloyd , is shown here
with his coach, Bill Foster. In the game with Shippensburg, held in
Centennial Gym, Dick broke three college records — most minutes in
play, most foul shots made, and the individual scorin g record. Husk y
fans eagerl y anticipate further action by this outstanding senior.

Grapplers Rival "Plain and Fancy "
from page 1)
Out for Blood bined (Continued
efforts of students and facul-

The big sports event of this week,
as far as the Husky fans are concerned , will take place tonight
when the undef eated Yellow Jackets of Waynesburg College meet
Coach Houk's varsity grapplers at
8:00 p.m. No JV matches are scheduled.
BSC Called "Tough"
In a release coming from Waynesburg College, Bloomsburg has been
pointed out as the toughest opponent on the Yellow Jacket schedule.
Appar en tly, Coach Bucky Murdock's charges would enj oy defeating Bloomsburg more than any
other te am on th eir sch edule , since
the Huskies are the only opponent
to defeat the Yellow Jackets three
years in succession. In last year's
meeting, BSC handed the Jackets
their worst defeat in 15 years.
Coach Murdock, during his 15 year
tenure, has had six undefeated seasons, and one of the best records of
any Pa. wrestling coach.
String Broken
The wrestling team had their
string of 15 consecutive dual meet
victories broken Jan. 29 when they
traveled to Lock Haven. This
match pitted two of the top 20
wrestling teams in the country
against each other and received
not only local , but nationwide recognition , and it was quite a blow
therefore when Bloomsburg fell 1612. Gene Dixon recorded the only
pin for BSC in the meet.
On Re-bound
On the re-bound , two days later ,
the Huskies recorded a 31-2 triumph over East Stroudsburg. Two
of the most fantastic matches of
the night were in the 167 pound
classes and the unlimited class.
Bob Hall pinned his man in 20 seconds, and Gene Dixon , usually 157,
came out against East S.* heavyweight, and pinned him in the second period to climax the victory .

ty. Miss Mildred Bisgrove supervises the singing portions while Dr.
Charles Carlson directs a college
orchestra. Miss Helen Kelly is publicity manager , and Miss Mary
Homrighous is costume director.
Bloomsburg State's first musical
comedy will be staged and choreographed by Mr. Cope. The college
Choraleers, in addition to other
members of the cast, will also be
there to add to the impressive production.
When .so many people are involved in a college production , complications make themselves evident.
The time element affords a cramped practice schedule. The numerous
scripts and the quantity of sheet
music required produce a financial
drawback. Finding enough talent to
fill so many parts is difficult. Again,
overcoming the physical limitations
of the stage requires calculation.

Despite the many difficulties, the
people involved have overcome adversities to prepare a performance

BSC's basketball team has won
only two of its -last four games.
Mansfield State College avenged
an earlier defeat on January 20;
after this our cagers bounced back
with a win over East Stroudsburg
on January 27. Our next game, January 31, was at West Ch este r w her e
we lost and we then defeated Shippensburg at home on February 3.
Lloy Senior Captain Dick Lloyd has
been on the rampage in destroying
records lately. During the Slroudsburg game, he rewrote the individual scoring record by scoring 45
points, 26 of which were in the first
half. The Shippensburg game saw
him break the record of minutes in
a Husky uniform. He has worn the
uniform 2267 min utes; the old record was 2231 minutes. He also made
a new record of foul shots; the previo u s one w a s 227 , Dick now has
229.
We won the Stroudsburg game
99-87. Near the end of the first
half , ESSC took a one point lead
but lost it quickly as we had a 12point lead by half-time. Bloomsburg controlled the scoring for the
remainder of the game. Lloyd was
high scorer for the evening with his
45 points and Scott Weaver, ESSC ,
was next with 24.
West Chester Game
West Chester defeated us on their
own court 62-51. This destroyed our
first place tie in the PSCC Eastern
Division with Mansfield State College . WCSC took the lead in the
beginning and held it throughout
the game. Lloyd was high for BSC
with 18 points.
The Shippensburg game was a
different story. We took our fifth
PSCC victory by beating them 7456. During the first eight minutes,
we held complete control, the score
being 25-5. Our next game will be
at Lock Haven on February 13, and
we play Cheyney here on Feb. 14.
which will guarantee an enj oyable
evening of entertainment. The
show will be free to students with
activities tickets and will be open
to the public at $1.00 per person.

FOX

uary 20, they met Lycoming; East
Stroudsburg was the next opponent on January 31, on February 3,
they met Lock Haven.
The Stroudsburg meet ended with
a score of 62-33 and with them taking 9 of the 10 events. Our first
place win was in the 400 y ard free
style medley made up of co-captain
Tom Little , Chuck Jasper, Hayden
Jones and Don Young. Stroudsburg
set four new records for our pool
in the 400 y ard relay medley race,
diving, 200 yard butter-fly and the
200 yard back stroke.
Great Improvement
Fans who at tended the Lock
Haven meet saw the greatest improvement in the BSC swimmers.
At the end of the seventh period,
the score was tied at 30 points for
each team. The final score read 5638 , but the meet was a big step towards the win column for our mermen. This was only Lock Haven 's
