WELCOME HOME

Your Alma Mater welcomes you
and your friends back to the cam- ,
pus, which is now accommodating
2,000 students with an instructional staff of 127.
At the present time more than
$6,000,000 has been allocated and
appropriated for the construction
of two women 's dormitories to accommodate 500 women, a men's
dormitory to accommodate 300, an
auditorium to seat 2,000, and
architects have been appointed to
draw plans, but appropriations
have not been made, for a Library
which will seat 750 and eventually
' shelve 200,000 volumes, to cost approximately $1,500,000.
Construction is in progress on an
expansion of the heating plant, and
the construction of all utility lines
to meet the electrical, water and
sewer needs of the present campus
when it accommodates 3,000 students.

Many Outstanding
Members in Herd

Woody Herman's band has long
been known for its big names and
outstanding musicians. Each time
Woody started a new group the
fans viewed the opening with hesitance and unfavorably compared it
with the former ones.
For instance, some say that the
present herd is not as good as that

featured big name soloists as Stan

Harvey A* Andruss Members Young—But Good
President
Indeed, the critics had a right to
speculate so, for this is a young
band with several of its members
r e c e n t graduates of Boston's
Berklee School of Music. However,
all indications seem to point to the
fact that this new herd will equal
if not surpass the former ones.
George T. Simon states in the AuPRIZE-WINNING ORCHESTRA
gust 26, 1962 New York Herald
Tribune, "The arrangements are
exciting. The brass is brilliant. The
trumpets blast as one. They blow
high, but they're accurate and
they get a great blend. The saxes
are loose and easy. And the rhythm section—well, if there's one
reason why this Herd stands out
from all the rest, it's because of
the rhythmic trio's fantastic,
swinging drive."

Woody Herman, who brings his
award-winning orchestra to BSC
tonight, is often called the 'youngest old-timer in the music business.'
Woody was a vaudeville trouper
when he was only nine years old.
He did an act singing and playing
the clarinet and was billed as "The
Boy Wonder of the Clarinet." When
Woody finished high school he enrolled in Marquette Music School
in Milwaukee and after a year of
study started working with local
bands. In 1929 he j oined Tom Gerun's band, then one of the leading
orchestras.
Featured with Martin and Simms
With the Gerun band, Woody
went to California, playing in and
around San Francisco for a number
of years as featured singer and instrumentalist with the group. The
band had several other vocalists
then of whom you may have heard
— Tony Martin and Ginny Simms.
In 1933, Woody joined Isham
Jones, one of the first big swing
bands followed the Casa Loma pattern, and with Jones produced a
series of Victor discs, including
"Dallas Blues," which are now rare
items for the Woody Herman collector. In 1936, Jones wanted to retire and a group of men in the
band formed a corporation, elected
Woody president, and took over
the band.
Woody 's First Band
The first years were tough, bookings were scarce, and the band was
far from a click. But it was a good
band and when it finally hit, was a
solid success. Count Basie, who
made his New York debut opposite
the group at the Roseland Ballroom remembers they frightened
hi m !
When the inroads of the wartime
draft became too great , the corporation dissolved. "The Band That
Plays the Blues" assumed a new
style as new men came into it.
From the big band blues of "Bishop's Blues" "Blues on Parade " and
"Woodchopper's Ball" and the other sides recorded for Decca in that
era, they evolved a new swing style
which led into the startling series
of Columbia records of the midforties — "Caledonis," "Your Father's Mustache," "Wildroot," "Apple Honey" and "Northwest Passage."
Stravinsky Composition
High spot of this band's career
was its Carnegie Hall concert in
1946 when it presented Ralph

Feature s Flashback of Campus

The Maroon and Gold would like to take this opportunity to welcome
BSCs Alumni to its 35th Homecoming celebration. We hope that you
enj oy your weekend.
In this issue of the MJSJG you will notice quite a few features concerning BSC as it was "then." We have chosen these topics for publication
not only fo r the "old grads' " reverie, but also to give the present students
a basis by which to compare our campus as it is now in its present state
of metamorphosis. And , indeed, it is a metamorphosis, for while we look
' forward to a liberal arts curriculum , we also have our academy and
literary institute to look back upon. As distant as the past may seem, we
still have a long way to go — scholastically and otherwise.
Our staff members have found it quite interesting to prepare this
special Homecoming issue for you. In vniearthing the facts they have
come across numerous items that have produced the inevitable comparisons. Most of them have been favorable, however some of them have not.
It might not be a bad idea for some of our present students to take the
time and look into those dusty volumes.
This might well be considered a strong point in the favor of an organization such as the newspaper, providing another facet in his educational
gems. The M&G staff is brought into contact with almost every aspect
of BSC at some time or another. Indeed, the reader is constantly informed
on the subjects of sports, club, fraternity, faculty, and administration
needs. We also present features, cartoons, and many other non-news
items of interest to the student .
For the most part, when a student joins the M&G staff their experience is somewhat limited. On the reporting staff this deficiency is alleviated by our journalism classes under the direction of our advisor, Mr.
Richard Savage. Because they must produce material on a steady basis,
they develop a responsibility that is so necessary in the profession.

The Snip and the Pendulum
by KATHY R OSELLI

Homecoming Weekend is here; visitors and alumni will be taking
their nostalgic tours around BSCs campus. As they meander up the
walk to Science Hall, they will see that some balanced piece of architecture enhanced by that same gnarled trees. When they enter this hall
of learning, however, they will immediately notice that ..something is
definitely missing — namely, that hallowed fixture of Science Hall —
Foucault's Pendulum.
Wh at happened to Foucault's Pendulum ? The aforementioned quest ion embodies the mystery of the semester. After many thorough investigations, amateur Sherlock Holmes enthusiasts are still baffled by this
crime. A short , thin piece of wire mysteriously hanging from the ceiling
is all that remains of this profound physical experiment.
Plagued With Queries
One snip of a wire has caused chaos on campus. The pilfering of this
pendulum has produced a new low in the morale of the college community. Physics professors are being plagued with frantic queries concerning
the truth of the earth's rot ation. Are we still on the move or have we
really reached a standstill. A recent college poll has proven that more
students of physical science are having difficulty comprehending the
prin ciples behind the rotation of the earth since the defilement of this
visual aid.
What were his reasons for purloining this pendulum, the sadistic thief
is urged to return it in order to restore the nat ural equilibrium of this
college. This frustrat ed weight-lifter, bowler, or shot-put thrower will be
shown mercy if he returns the bob immediately. He will not have to face
anyone of authority. The culprit is asked to roll the pendulum into the
nearest administration office — and run !

The Old Order Cha ngeth ? ?
by CAROL De FELICE

In case- there is a shade of doubt in anyone's mind , th ey are not digging fall-out shelters on campus. Those huge mounds of red earth , whi ch
h ave appeared recently on the lawn and around buildings , repre sent the
growth and expansion of BSC.
For th e benefit of the hoarse instructors in Science Hall and the
students who have a difficult time hearing from the second row, the nois e
is emitted by the crew working on the heating plant , which will provide
for the future expansion of the college. From now until May 15, 1963,
noises will be heard in and around Science Hall — only during class
hours; the workers also take their ten minute breaks when the instructors
and students do.
Provide Water Drains
Work is also being done on the terrace between Waller Hall and
Science Hall to provide storm water drains for the campus. If you use
the short macadam path leading to Science Hall , step ligh t ly on t he
boards which lie across the path. The boards are not very stable and tend
to ooze mud when stepped upon in rainy weather.
Athletes will be glad to hear that a locker room is being constructed
under Centennial Gymnasium . For those of you who are not. athletes,
watch for the detour alongside the gymnasium.

There's Life On
Mt. Olympus

A little pep does go a long way !
The truth of this statement was
proven at. the Mansfield game on
Saturday, September 29. The group
of students responsible for this
aerial demonstration of school spirit are to be congratulated. They
helped to add extra zest to one of
the most exciting football games
of the season.

It Could Be Worse

by Sue Morrison
Everyon e of u s at one time or
another has heard the familiar remark of all adu lts , "Now when I
was a girl..." or "Back in the
good old days , when I was a young
man ..." But j ust how good were
the "old day s ?"
Bloomsburg State College in the
good
old days" w as known as
"
Bloomsburg Normal School, and
things were very difficult at that
time. The system then , in fa ct ,
might be the answer to many of
the complaints which both faculty
and students have today.
Many of the present problems of
the administration could be solved
by following the example of the
Normal School. No longer would
they be worried about parking
problems. The simple answer —
there were no cars. Commuters
had to travel to and from school by
trolley car, and the students on
campus went home on vacation by
tr ain. Certainly, this would relieve
the congestion on Long Porch at
the "hour of exodus" on Saturdays,
but it would present a problem, for
trains are no longer used. Luggage
or couples were never a worry to
the Dean of Women, then known as
Preceptress, because at that time
the sch ool w as no t equ ipped with
fire towers.
Eighteen Inch Rule
Students, here is the answer to
all your social problems! When
BSC was a normal school, their two
big dances of the year were usually
well attended. There wefce no wallflowers then ; boys danced with
boys and girls with girls. Socializing was definitely discouraged because an eighteen inch separation
between the opposite sexes was
maintained at all times. After all
social rules had been followed to
the strict limit , what wasn't prohibited could be accomplished until
7:00 p.m., which was the late hour
for everyone. Boys, however, had
the privilege of a 10:00 p.m. late on
Saturday evenings.
Well, perhaps the "good old days "
aren't the answer to your problems, ' but they can certainly make
you appreciate the "here and now."

New York Trip Open

Alph a Psi Omega, BSCs coeducational dramatic fraternity is
planning a weekend trip to New
York City on November 10 and 11,
1962. Hotel and bus will cost approximately $12.00 to be paid by
Nov. 1, 1962. The obtalnment of
theatre tickets will be an individual responsibility.
Interested persons are asked to

Woody Herman
And Band Tour
For Good Will
Winning the admiration of all ,
Woody Herman found himself called upon by the United States State
Department to tour South America on a goodwill tour. The tour
covered a 21 week period and 23
countries, and was deemed such a
great success that Woody Herman
was asked to return at a future
date.- In fact, letters still pour into
Woody 's New York address from
fans made on that trip.
i

England Appearance
Woody has most recently scored
another musical first — the first
Anglo American band ever to appear in England. He took with him
to England his library and key
musicians such as Jim Campbell on
drums, Bill Harris on trombone,
Charle Byrd on guitar, Vince Guiraldi on piano and Renault Jones
and Nat Adderley on trumpet.
Combining forces with a powerful
group of famous English jazz musicians they took England by storm
and even Woody was surprised by
the way the band swung. From
there he took his small group of
American musicians to Saudi Arabia, where he completely fascinated the natives with the driving
music the group produced.

to Herman and his faith in himself

"HUSKIES OFS^Ip^pJE' '

Football Team Battles WC from the
SIDELINES TO CARPENTER AND SPRdUT
But Go Down Fighting 28-0
i

On Friday night, October 12, the
Huskies j ourneyed to West Chester
State College to play the game we
all awaited. The fired up Bloomsburg team put on a spirited battle
with the Rams of WCSC before
bowing to the "Bondermen" 28-0.
Bloom's hopes for an upset were
dispelled by the inability of the
Husky offense machine to get a
drive going and the alertness of
the Ram secondary. Defensively ,
the boys did somewhat better as
they did a bang-up job on the Ram 's
stellar runner, Joe Iacone.
Little All-American
West Chester quarterback , Terry Eberly, completed 9 out of 15
passes to gain 140 yards and three
touchdowns. Little All-American
Iacone put on a show by gathering
132 yards rushing.
The possible turning point of the
game occurred at the end of the
second quarter. West Chester had
possession on the Husky 6 yard
line and the situation was' fourth
and goal; there were 37 seconds remaining in the half and the Rams
led 7-0. If BSC could have held, the
game might have been a different
story.
Illuminating- Spot
The crisp downfield blocking of
the West Chester team (which is
a West Chester trademark ) enabled the Rams to get off the line
quicker and beat our boys to the
punch.
An illuminating spot on the part
of BSC was the fine punting of fullback Gary Sprout, who averaged
41 yards for 8 punts. Gary "Huff"
Barnaba and Ken Robbins also deserved a lot of credit for their fine
defen sive effort.

BEST WISHES
BSC GRADS

The climax to any college homecoming weekend is the football
game. And , Bloomsburg State College homecomings arc no exception to this rule. Year after year ,
the football game on Mt. Olympus
is the main event with its color,
noise, and excitement.
'D uring the thirty-four Bloomsburg homecomings , there have been
some exciting grid congests on Mt.
Olympus. There have been years
when the Huskies whitewashed
their opponents; other years have
seen the Huskies in some close contests. And , there are games which
the Husky fans would like to forget.
Perhaps some returning graduates will recall the thumptings the
Huskies handed Kutztown 'state in
1950, under coach Robert Redman
(35-0), or Trenton State in 1953,
while Jack Yohe was head mentor,
(48-0) .
Those*alumni who were students
at BSC seven years back no doubt
remember the str uggle the Huskies
had with King's College before
emerging the victor, the final score
being a 20-19 decision.
Then , too, how many former students would like to forget last,
y ear's lashing at the hands of a
powerful East Stroudsburg eleven.
Stroudsburg scored 36 points while
holding the Blairmen scoreless.

* * *

So much for the past. Let's look
at the present . This year the 35th
annual Bloomsburg State College
Homecoming will reach its high
point on Saturday afternoon when
the Huskies meet the Marauders of
Millersville State College.
The Huskies are still nursing a
28-0 wound inflicted by the powerful Rams of West Chester State.
But , the team is hungry for their
second win and should satisfy their
hunger at the expense of the hapless Marauders who are 1-3-0 in
the season. They dropped their
opener to Randolph-Macon , defeated Kutztown in their second outing, and dropped their last two decisions to West Chester and Mansfield State.
Our Huskies will still have to
battle for their second win of the
season, as the Marauders have
shown signs of being a scrappy ball
club. So, make your way to Mt.
Olympus and give the Huskies your
support.1 They 'll show their appreciation by giving their best, and
beating Millersville.

Trevor Carpenter
... Offensiv e and defensive tackle, was selected "Lineman of the
Week" for the Bloomsburg-Kings
game at Kings College two weeks
ago. Trev, as usual, was a tremendous lift to th e Huskies' morale, as
he went the full sixty minutes on
both offense and defense. He was
involved in many bruising tackles
that halted the key Monarch drives
and did not let up although the
Kings' line held a considerable edge
in weight over Bloomsburg's. On
offense, his hard hitting and blocking served as a spearhead in Bloom
drives and was responsible for
many fine runs through his slot.
Generally speaking, Trev played
his usual brand of hard, strenuous
football from beginning to end. '
Trevor is a senior from Scranton, maj oring in secondary education. This is his fourth year of football at Bloomsburg; he has had
three years of varsity experience.

BSC's nir\e maj orettes can be
seen twirling batons at football
games, pep-rallies, and in the
Homecoming Parade. The girls,
who perform in conjunction with
the Maroon and Gold College Band ,
show evidence of a four day pre- (
season band camp of concentrated
practice and instruction. Band directors, Dr. Carlson and Mr. Miller , aid Captain Linda Schmidt in
training the corps.
Hailing from Morton, Penna.,
head majorette, Linda Schmidt has
taught twirling as well as being ,

English Club To
Create Interest
In Lit and Arts

The English Club, one of the
newer organizations on campus, is
attempting to stimulate interest in
literature and the fine arts among
college students. In order to accomplish this, the club ha* a general outline for the year's meetings. Miss Alva Rice recently spoke
on romanticism as found in the
writings of T. S. Eliot. This was
also the subj ect of a paper she
compiled during her recent studies
at the University of London. Mr.
Gerald Strauss, one of the other
planned speakers, will speak in the
near future.
In addition to speakers, the English Club listened to the recording
of the Synge's Riders to the Sea.
At the following meeting, the members plan to have a panel discussion concerning the play. Later,
the club will use the same procedure with a movie.
The English Club is also considering a field trip; possibilities are
a play in New York or the Shakespearean Festival at Selinsgrove.
A trip to New York was sponsored
by the English Club in November
of 1961. The climax of the year will
be the Spring Arts Festival; the
club plans to sponsor a writing contest in conj unction with the affair.

Relationshi ps with BSC, Town
Have Been Mutuall y Good

"Town and gown" has long been
a term used to describe relationships between colleges and the
community in which they are located. During the history of BSC
and the town of Bloomsburg there
has been a close relationship which
has , in the long run, been mutually
beneficial to both. The town has
helped our college to grow and the
college has helped the town in its
economic growth, culture, and in
civic welfare.
Cooperation Brings Mutual Growth
Close cooperation between
townspeople^ and college administrators has made possible the rapid growth of BSC. For example, by
opening their homes to college students, the people of Bloomsburg are
not only helping the college but
also themselves. They help themselves directly by the increase in
their income and they help the rest
of the town indirectly as a result
^
of this income.
The money brought into the town
by the members of the College
community is an important factor
in the economy of Bloomsburg. As
a local merchant stated, "The college is one of our maj or industries."
The basis for his statement lies in
the fact that the college employs
127 faculty members and nearly as
many non-instructional employees.
These people and their families
provide a large percentage of the
t own's economic stability.
The growth of BSC has developed a reciprocal cycle that continues to enlarge as more students
and faculty come to BSC. Another
contribution to the economy of the
town is the many visitors that are
attracted to BSC by such activities
as Freshman's Parents Day, Homecoming, Educational Conference,
Business Education Contest, Alumni Day, Sales- Rally, Commencement, and by the many sports
events.
In the future, the presence of
BSC in this area will be a definite
asset to the industrial development
of Bloomsburg and the surrounding areas. The presence of an institution of higher education is an
excellent selling point for an area
when trying to attract new industry. Such industries are interested
in the possibilities for good education for their employees' families
and for additional education opportunities for employees.
BSC has also helped the Civic
Music Association with a yearly
contribution for more than a dec-

ade. The assembly programs, dramatic productions, big name entertainment, and the various lecture
programs have always been open
to the public.' These intellectual
and cultural offerings give the
people of Bloomsburg an opportunity that would not be available if
BSC were not located in this area.
Looking back to the statement that
the presence of a college in a town
is an important factor in attracting new industry into an area , industry looks at the cultural opportunities as well as educational and
financial opportunities.
Growth Includes More Industry
Industry also enters areas that
show they are active in civic development. In this field the town of
Bloomsburg has worked with BSC
very closely in the building of the
sewage treatment plant that services the town and the college. The
college has just fulfilled its pledge
to the Bloomsburg Hospital. BSC
for many years maintained a room
at the hospital ; it* was the college
that furnished the room and saw to
it that the room was always in
*good condition. BSC has contributed money to the purchase of the
new ambulance and has in years
past contributed to the maintenance of the town ambulances. It
has been the policy of the college
to contribute one dollar for each
student enrolled to the Town Library for the improvement of its
service to the townspeople and the
students of BSC. Due to the growth
of student population, the ever
growing faculty brings into the
town specialized people that can be
of significant service to the town.
Several examples of how the faculty of BSC has been of service to
the town are in the field of mental
health such as personnel from the
Special Education Department of
BSC working with the Mental
Health Society. On other occasions,
the faculty of the Science. Department have helped the Bloomsburg
Water Authority with some of its
problems. The college has often
opened its doors to groups that
would have otherwise not had a
place to meet.
As was stated by our Publicity
Director, Mr. Boyd Buckingham,
"For the number of students we
have enrolled here, there are few
problems that arise concerning
town and college relations." It is to
the credit of the students and the
administration of BSC that few
such problems exist.

Gamma Theta Upsilon Welcomes
Applications For Membership

The Delta Chapter of Gamma
Theta Upsilon, National Professional Geographic F r a t e r n i ty ,
BSC, announced that it will receive and consider applications for
membership in this organization
anytime during the current semester.
t Membership in Gamma Theta
Upsilon is open to any student,
man or woman, who has an interest in Geography and desires to
strengthen his or her professional
training in tfiis cultural and practical discipline through academic
, experiences other than those of the
classroom. Delta Chapter will accept applications from students in
the fields of geography, social
studies, physical sciences, or in elementary education who are able to
meet the registration requirements.
Membership in the geography
fraternity requires that the student shall have completed at least

six semester hours in geography
and shall have earned at least a
"B" average in this field and possess an all-college cumulative average of at least 2.3. In addition ,
the applicant would specify that
he or she intends to take at least
twelve semester hours in geography. Both World Geography and
Geography of the United States
and Pennsylvania would be counted toward the required hours. Social Studies majors could meet the
latter requirement by one additional course in geography than is
required of them and elementary
students selecting geography as a
field of competency would automatically meet the requirement.

Many Changes in BSC Curriculums
For a More Complete Education
The curriculum during the past
25 years has undergone many minor changes in order to present the
student with better opportunities
for a more complete education,
•^he following curriculums were
inaugurated at State Teachers
College, Bloomsburg, Pa., beginning September 7, 1937:

Elementary Education
1) Four-Year Elementary Curriculum leading to 'the B. S. in Education with college certification
in (a) Kindergarten-Primary, (b).
Intermediate, (c) Rural fields. The
State Standard Limited Certificate
was issued at the end of three
years if students made this decision at the end of their freshman
year. This certification was valid
for three years, during which time
twelve semester hours of advanced
credit in the elementary field was
earned in order to renew it for
three more years. This process was
continued until the four-year requirement for the degree of B. S.
in Education had been fulfilled at
which time the College Provisional
Certificate was issued.
Special Education
(2) Six semester hours, selected
from the "Electives for Special Education," earned in addition to
completing the Four-Year Elementary curriculum was used to
certify a person to teach special
classes for the mentally retarded.
This meant that a person was certified to teach in the elementary
school, and at the same time certified to teach adjustment, speci al,
opportunity,*or orthogenic classes
in the elementary school.
Secondary Curriculum
(3) Four-Year secondary curriculum leading to B. S. in Education
with college certification two or
more of the following fields : English , Social Studies, Geography,
Mathematics, French, Latin , Science and Speech.
Business Education
(4) Four-Year business education
curriculum leading to the B. S. in
education, with opportunity to secure college certification in the following subjects: Bookkeeping and
Accounting, Business E n g l i s h ,
Commercial and Economic Geography, Commercial Law, Commercial
Mathematics, Economics, Junior
Business Training, Office Practice,
Salesmanship, S h o r t h a n d , and
Typewriting. Retail selling could
also be chosen as a field of certification.

BLOOMSBURO

During the succeeding 25 years
all curriculums have been designed
to give students the academic and
cultural background necessary to
make them competent in their respective fields. Consideration has
also been given to areas of pupil
needs in the basic educational program for teachers. Education and
psychology courses stress t h e
needs of youth and the principles
of learning applicable to meeting
them, Emphasis is also laid on the
dynamics of mental hygiene pertaining to youth and the community.
In order that the college may
offer a better cultural and academic background more faculty
members have been added to the
staff of BSC. The library has been
enlarged to meet the great demands put on it by students and
professors. And many programs
such as the Civic Music Association programs and the special assembly speakers have received
more attention.
Faculty and Program Changes
In the future the curriculums
will again change and be added to.
With the Liberal Arts program,
scheduled to start in September,
1963, faculty needs, as well as requirements of the state council of
education, must be met. Faculty
needs will include additional instructors in math, foreign languages, and philosophy. The requirements to be met by the state
council of education include the
employment of a Liberal Arts Director, a series of liberal arts
workshops in philosophy and purposes of the program. Students enrolling in the new arts program
will have to take a year of foreign language, a year of college
mathematics, and a year of laboratory science in addition to their
field of specialization.
Although the changes in the curriculum during the past 25 years
have been great, it is expected
that the changes in the next 25
years will be even greater. These
changes are necessary as our society progresses into the space age
and at BSC it is necessary to prepare students for their place in the
world of tomorrow!

Staff Attends ACPLA

Two members of the BSC library
st aff , Miss Gwendolyn Reams and
Miss Lola Maxwell, attended the
Annual Conference of the Pennsylvania Library Association recently held in Philadelphia.
The Conference was designed to
bring forth inspiring ideas applicable to all levels of library developments. The program, whose theme
was 188 in Action " considered the
expansion of library services
through books, buildings and personnel.
An outstanding feature of the
program was the presence of Katherine Anne Porter as guest
speaker. Miss Porter is author of
# Shlp of Fools, currently topping
the best-seller list.

Chapter of CEC
Holds Meeting

The first meeting of the Alpha
Chapter of Council for Exceptional
Children was held on October 8
in the social rooms of Science Hall.
The new president of C.E.C., Paul
Bingaman, informed the group
that Mr. Iano will replace Miss
Kramer as co-sponsor along with
Dr. Maitta and Dr. Selders.
Suggest Membership Change
At the meeting it was suggested
that membership should not be
limited to only those in the field
of Special Education, but also open
to anyone interested. They would
belong on a local level instead of
the n at ion al level , and any freshmen or sophomores, in Special Education, would also j oin locally. An
amendment will have to be made
to the constitution to make it official.
C.E.C. decided to have a float in
the Homecoming Parade, and Dr.
Selders volunteered his car for the
occasion. Virginia Boudman is the
chairman of the floa t committee.
The convention to be held in
Bedford Springs on October 26 and
27 was discussed, and all were invited to attend.
There was a social get together
with refreshments after the meeting.

Social Studies
Talks To Resume

The informal discusiion groups
of the Social Studies department
will resume sometime this month
stated Dr . John J. Serff , director.
The exact date is not definite and
will be left to the planning committee who will prepare the program for the first meeting.
The object of the discussion
groups is to informally discuss
subje cts, topics, controversial issues and questions pertaining to
the fi eld of social studies. Juniors
who are majoring in social studies
form the nucleus of this group.
However , last year sophomores
and seniors who were interested
participated in the discussions.
The meetings are held either in
the home of a staff member or on
the college campus. Dr. Serff feels
the program met strong enthusiasm last year and he is hoping for
the same reception this year.

Kappa Delta Pi
Plans Discussed

Kappa Delta Pi, Coeducational
Honor Society in Education , h eld
its firs t meeting recently. Plans
were discussed for the coming
year and in particular, for the
pledging of new members. It was
decided t h a t formal pledging
should be held during^ the week of
Homecoming in order to add more
color to this event.
This year's officers for Kappa
Delta Pi are : president—Jessie
Reppy ; vice presiden t—Jere Hock;
recording secretary — W a n d a
Kline; corresponding secretary —
Joanne Tenzyk ; treasurer—Laura
Mae Brown ; historian—Frederick
Minnick. The advisor of the organization is Mrs. Deborah Griffith.

To Insure Educ ation f or Youth

C. P. Waller, a graduate of Williams College, acted as head of the
first Bloomsburg Academy originated in 1839.
The Academy was started by the
citizens of Bloomsburg prompted
by a great desire to place before
the local youth an opportunity to
secure a classical education.
The growth of the institution
was such that in 1856 the Academy
was changed to the Bloomsburg
Literary Institute. The program
consisted of a common school department followed by a two year
curriculum for the preparation of
elementary school teachers. Scien tific , classical and commercial
courses were also offered. In 1869
the school was approved as a State
Normal School and Literary Institute.
Welsh Chosen as Princi pal
In 1890, Judson P. Welsh was
chosen principal of the institution,
and he remained in this capacity
until 1906. He was a promoter and
realized that new buildings were
needed. In 1894 a new four story
dormitory connecting Waller Hall
and Noetling Hall, and a new gymnasium were constructed . Where
Science Hall now stands a baseball diamond was laid. It was, also,
during this time that the phrase
"the friendly spirit which is
Bloomsburg " was coined.
Dr. Welsh's predecessor was D.
J. Waller, who remained principal
until 1920, He prompted the building of Science Hall in 1906 and
brought about the utilization of
eight and one-half acres of land,
bought in 1904, for an athleti c
field.
Fisher Establishes 3-Year Course
Following the resignation of Dr.
Waller , C. E. Fisher was elected
principal. He planned to establish
a closer relationship between the
school and the town schools. On
May 2, 1922, Dr. Fisher announced
th at a decision to establish a three
year course for the preparation
and training of j unior high school
teachers had been decided upon.

Regular Meetings
Held by SCA Club

The regular meeting of the Student Christian Association was
held recently in Carver Auditorium. Mark Hornberger, president ,
conducted the business meeting.
A worship service was presented
by Barbara Scheithauv, Betty Girven , Lars Edburgh , Hedley Kellian , and Marsh Gilson. Carol Kaminski sang the solo, "I Would Be
Tr u e," around which the worship
program was built.
The second meeting was held on
Wednesday, October 17, at 7 p.m.,
in Carver Auditorium. The Rev.
John Palmer, of the Glad Tidings
Pentecostal Church , will be the
speaker. All faculty members and
students are invited to attend the
meetings of the Student Christian
Association.
BSC Student Christian Association was represented by Judy Balestrini , James Russell , and Clayton
H. Hinkel, faculty sponsor , at the
recent YWCA Regional Council
and the YMCA State Council
meeting in the Philadelphia YMCA
camp, Downingiown, Pennsylva nia.

Dr. Fisher left in 1923 to take the
position as president of a state
teacher's college in Washington.
The next principal of B.S.C. was
Dr. G. C. Reimer, who remained
as such until 1927. During his term
North Hall was converted into a
men's dormitory and the present
lobby of Waller Hall was built.
Bloomsburg changed from a normal school to a college during this
period.
Up until this time the institution was headed by a principal,
who had the same responsibilities
as a high school principal. However, after B.S.C. became a college
the office of president came about.
Haas First President
The first president, of the college
was Dr. Francis B. Haas who held
this position from 1927 until 1939.
During this time the transition
from a two year to a four year basis was started and the quality
point system as a graduation requirement was inaugurated. From
1934 to 1940 the growth of the college was great in personnel and
plants. At this time Centennial
Gym, Navy Hall, a maintenance
building and a new heating plant
were welcome additions.
Andruss Comes in 1989
Dr. Harvey A. Andruss came to
BSC as president in 1939. Since
this time there have been many
changes and improvements. New
buildings have been added including Sutliff Hall and New North
Hall. Finally in 1960 B.S.T.C. was
changed to B.S.C. with plans to introdu ce a liberal arts course. There
are also plans to enlarge the college in the near fu ture by adding
classroom facilities, dormitories,
and personnel. Work has begun on
these projects recently. By 1960 it
is hoped dormitory space will be
available for 2000 students.
