PP &L At Talks
On Atomic Energy

A new understanding of the
peaceful role of atomic energy was
gained during three days at the
fourth Natipnal Youth Conference
on the Atom held in Chicago recently by eighteen central eastern
Pennsylvania students and teachers. Among this group was Dr.
Donald J. Rabb, associate professor of physics and instructor of radiation biology at BSC.
Pennsylvania Power & Light
Company sponsored the attendance of the eight students and ten
science teachers of the area delegation. More than 600 scientists
and teachers from all parts of the
country were on hand, all of whom
were sponsored by investor-owned
utilities. All delegates were selected through local and state science
fairs, special examinations and on
the basis of school records.
The purpose of the conference
was to present an authoritative
picture of the promise of the
peaceful atom in its various applications and to advance interest in
the study of science. Talks and
panel discussions, featuring nationally recognized authorities in
scientific fields, and special tours
filled the three-day schedule.
Among the highlights was a tour
of Argonne National Laboratory,
the country 's senior atomic energy
research and nuclear development
establishment. There the visitors
saw the operation of mechanical
hands or "master slave manipulators," which duplicate the movement of human hands and prevent
technicians from contacting radioactive materials; a double-focusing
mass spectrometer, an instrument
used for determining the relative
amounts and weights of atoms and
for measuring the extremely small
amounts of energy that hold the
atomic nuclei together.
By joining CARE's Food Crusade
to send 7,500,000 packages across
the world, at $1 per package, Americans will help feed 26,000,000
hungry people during fiscal 196263.

State Colleges
Rate With Top s

The pre-final report of the Research Committee of the Pennsylvania State College Board of Presidents states that the 14 state colleges compare most favorably to
other colleges and universities
throughout the nation.
This report is based on the 5,480
sophomores of the state colleges
who took the Standardized College
Abilities Test (SCAT) and the Sequential Test of Educational Progress ( STEP 1-B). The areas tested '
in STEP 1-B test were science,
mathematics, social studies, reading, and writing.
The Research Committee, consisting of Dr. Richard T. Parsons,
president of Lock Haven State College and chairman of the committee, Dr. Harvey A. Andruss, presiden t of BSC, and Dr. Lewis Rathgeber, of Mansfield State College,
points out that the norms for this
series of tests were established by
students from all types and sizes
of c o l l eg e s a n d universities
throughout the nation.

Two Massachusetts educators
visited BSC this week to observe
preparation for the inauguration of
programs in the Arts and Sciences
in September, 1963.
Dr. Meddill Bair, Superintendent
of Schools, Lexington, Massachusetts who was formerly a Bucks
County administrator and member
of the board of Trustees at Mansfield State College, was accompanied by Dr. Albert Elsasser, Mt.
Herman School, M t . Herman,
Massachusetts, former member of
Princeton 's faculty. Two educators, who came here from Kutztown State College prepared a report for the Superintendent of
Public Instruction. This report was
not an evaluation.

Choraleers To Present Amahl With Dual Leads

Double-casting, a novel theatre
technique, is being used for the
traditional Christmas m u s i c a l ,
Amahl and the Night Visitors, to
be presented by the College Choraleers on December 14, 15, and 16
in Carver Auditorium.
Double-casting, casting two people in the same part, is a theatrical
device which serves two purposes.
It gives more people the opportunity to participate in the production and provides an understudy if
one should be necessary. It is not
used very often because of physical
limitations and limited talent.
However, Miss Bisgrove, the musical director, has double-cast the
principal roles of Amahl and the
mother In her forthcoming production.
Playing Amahl in alternate performances will be Clair Welliver
and Ann Evans, pupils at the Benj amin Franklin Laboratory School.
Clair Welliver, son of Mr. and Mrs.
Carl
T. Welliver, 594 E. 3rd street ,
•
town , is a sixth grader, who has
had previous musical experience In
the Lutheran Church Choir and
studying the drums. Ann Evans,
5th grade, is the daughter of Mr.
and Mrs , Samuel R. Evans, 736 E.
3rd Street , t own, and has studied
piano and participated in the Presbyterian Church Choir,

Double-cast as the Mother are
Theresa McHugh and Karen Leffler. Theresa, a sophomore elementary education maj or from the
West Halzeton area, is a veteran
of several high school and college
productions, including "Plain and
Fancy" and last year's Freshman
Talent Show. She also studied
voice for two years. Karen Leffler,
a freshman elementary education
maj or from PottsvlUe appeared In
this year 's Freshman Talent Show

and has had experience in high
school performances and district
chorus.
The three kings will be played
by Mr. James Leitzel, a member of
the Mathematics department, Anthony Doolcy, special education
freshman and John Sills, elementary senior.
Back-stage production matters
will be directed by Mr. William F.
Cope. Mary E. Homrighous will assist with costumes and makeup. A
student production staff will work
on staging, lighting, properties,
makeup, costumes, and publicity.
Amahl and the Night Visitors, a
one act opera by Glan-Carol Menotte, is the story of a young crippled child on the first Christmas
Eve. Amahl, the child, is the central figure and all events and characters are interpreted In terms of
his Imagination.
Evening performances will be
presented at 8:00 the 14th and 15th
with a 3:00 matinee on Sunday, the
16th. These three performances
will give the cast experience and
afford more students the opportunity to see it. Although Amahl was
done at BSC j ust two years ago,
Miss Bisgrove Is confident that this
fact will not hurt the attendance
because of the traditional nature of
the production. ,

Foreign Exchan ge
State Colleges
CGA Confa b Topi cs

Foreign exchange programs and
comparisons to liberal arts institutions were two of the several topics
discussed at the Pre-Conference
Committee meeting of the Pennsylvania Association of Student
Governments. T h e meeting at
Kutztown was attended by Dr. J.
Alfred McCauslin, Jim Case, and
Jim Campbell, advisor, president,
and vice-president of the CGA.
In the discussion concerning the
foreign exchange systems, it was
discovered that the maj ority of our
sister state colleges have programs
that are far more advanced than
BSC's and most of them have been
put into operation.
A second topic, the comparison
of a state college to a liberal arts
college, also brought out that many
students feel a state college is inferior. It was stated that some students felt that several of their required courses were a waste of
time that could be better spent in
developing their maj or subject to
a greater depth. It was then cited
that there are many state colleges
that are superior to the liberal arts
institutions in terms of entrance
and course credit requirements.

Explosion In Lab
At Ki ng 's College
Handl ed Carefully

An unanticipated explosion followed a flash of brilliant light was
the result of a reaction in the chem
lab of King 's College recently.
Glenn Jaikes and Vincent Stauder
who were involved in the experiment suffered only minor facial
lacerations and were given prompt
first aid by the chemistry professors.
The students were working with
phosphorus , water, and iodine. The
reaction produces one of the most
deadly gases known to man. Although the explosion occurred within the confines of a gas hood, fan s
were unable to remove the large
quantity of caustic gas involved.
The professors quickly evacuated
the lab and confined the gas to the
room.
It was later explained that had
required safety precautions been
followed , such a reaction would
have been highly unlikely. This reaction , according ta the Rev. James
J. Sheehan/ CSC, associate professor of chemistry, was one of the
most violent explosions In the last
few years and clearly proved the
necessity of safety in laboratory
procedures.

There are only twenty more
shopping days left until Christmas
and the Sophomores of BSC and
Lee Vincent and his orchestra are :
setting the mood for Christmas tonight at the annual Cotillion. Lee
Vincent will strike the holiday note
for the dancing from 8:30 to
11:30 p.m., as BSC gets its Christmas twisting done early. The
theme of "Christmas by Candlelight" will be carried out in a color
scheme of blue, green, and gold.
The Lee Vincent Orchestra has
received the Pennsylvania Band
Award for the past seven years.
They also represented Northeastern Pennsylvania at the contest in
Philadelphia's Chez Vous Ballroom
for the Third Annual Nation-Wide *
search for the Best New Dance
Band for 1961r In this, the orchestra came off with a trophy as runner-up over two hundred orchestras which participated in this
contest from over sixty-five cities
in the U.S. and Canada. The band
is also nationally rated by the
American Federation of Musicians.
Lee Vincent, also a disc-j ockey for
radio station WILK, is a unique
band leader in that he plays a bass
viol, an unusual instrument for a
band leader.
This group of twelve people is
widely known throughout the east
for danceable rhythms, playing for
the young or old and its recordings
for Collectors Club Records namely "Penn State Hop," "Tonight My
Sweet," "Our Song," and "My
Guys' Come Back." They have
been featured at most of the eastern colleges, such as Cornell, Colgate, Temple, Bucknell, Lehigh,
Franklin and Marshall, Muhlenberg, Wilkes, Scranton, Ithaca,
Kings, Stroudsburg State, West
Chester State, Kutztown State,
Marywood, Drexel and many others. The orchestra has also been
featured with Eddie Fisher, Hugo
Winterhalter, the Ames Brothers,
the Four Aces, Nat "King" Cole,
the Three Suns, Billy Eckstine,
George Shearing, the Fontaine Sisters, Esther Williams, Joni James,
Toni Arden, the Hilltoppers and
other outstanding stars.

Scheduling for the second semester will be done on the following
dates in Centennial Gymnasium
(9 a.m. to 12 n. and 1:30 to 4 p.m.)

Some question has arisen from
the fact that faculty names were
not included in the master schedule. It is the personal opinion of
Dean Hock that all scheduling
should be done without reference
to the faculty member teaching the
course. Faculty choices have not as
yet been made and will not be
made until January since faculty
additions are being contemplated.
The practice of printing the faculty names in the master schedules
varies from college to college. Dean
Hock chose to omit the names for
this next semester.

BSC has had the opportunity to witness a most unusual and impressive production. The Everyman Players' interpretation of The Book -of
Job was received in various manners by the BSC Community, and for
th e most part , th e recept ion was favora ble with oth er opin ions, ranging
from a frank lack of understanding to a distaste for the style.
To truly enjoy this production one had to submerge himself within it
rather than view it obje ctively. It wasn't a play of plot ; it was a portrayal
of emotion and internal conflict that had to be followed with intense
concentration. After a break in attention a total return was almost impossibl e because of th e ceaseless act ion an d th e actors' constant assumption of new roles. The only actor that did not develop more than one
role was Job himself, Randolph Tallman. Job can't really be said to have
rema ined t h e same, though, for throughout the play his attitudes and
emotions were constantly developing and conflicting until his final proclamation of his thorough love and devotion to God.
Perfection Is Probable Key To Success
Th e af ternoon reh earsal of t h e players showed the basis of the company's success, this is Mr. Orlin Corey himself. As the players rehe arsed
he directed, a l tere d , h alte d with a deft an d dynamic manner t h at soon
caused one to label him a "perfectionist." His wor ds an d act ions b ef ore
and af ter t h e perf ormance were a continuation of t h e enthusiasm an d
precision that were so important to the entire production.
Indeed, precision as quite necessary for a production such as this, not
only on stage but also off stage as they maintain a strenuous schedule.
Dur in g an interv iew , Mrs. Corey said that the evening previous to the
BSC performance, t h e product ion was presented i n Williamstown , Mass.,
and the following evening they would be appearing in Canton, Ohio. This
is the usual schedule for the Everyman Players with an average of six
presentations a week and a four week run in the New York Christ Methodist Church starting January 2.
Traveling Company Overcomes Varied Problems
With this constant change, many problems are inherent in each presentation. One of the most important and difficult problems to overcome
are the variations in stage size and acoustics. Mrs. Corey stated that in
comparison to some of the stages they have appeared upon , BSC's is
"almost like heaven." She recalled that in the Williamstown production
they were limited to the use of only % of their normal acting area.
Another difficulty confronting the actors themselves is dialect. The
majority of the performers are from Kentucky and Louisian a and a general American pronunciation must be assumed for the st iget This involves constant diction practice that is usually done on the bus between
performances.
Each Actor Vital To Total Action
There are no stand-ins or prompter so that in case of any illness, etc.
the actor is just blocked out of the action. Mrs. Corey stated that many
times the players become dizzy and must leave the stage. As she ex v
plained it , they are "float in g" in a sea of light that separates them from
everything else. Therefore every step must be measured exactly.
Then there is the question that arose in everyone's mind sometime
before , during, or after the performance. How do they get their makeup
on ? This is another of the Everyman Players' difficulties. The makeup
is a liquid and it is applied directly to the face with a brush. Originally
this took the actors anywhere from two to three hours, i t now takes
them one hour. For the most part, the faces are all practically the same
wit h only Job's differin g to create a greater sense of suffering. The costumes themselves have been remade three times during the five years of
Mr. Corey 's presentations.
At the present time, approximately half of the actors are undergraduate students and the rest are attending graduate school. In five
years of performances, there have been ten different productions, fortyfive different actors; the BSC presentation was the 326th. As Mrs. Corey
explained , "We created it and now it leads us around ." — EDC

Husky Grapplers Optimistic;
Anticipate A Bright Season

Coach Russel E. Houck has accepted the challenge to include a
number of teams from famous institutions in the 1962-63 wrestling
schedule. These include the University of Nebraska , the University of Southern Illinois, and the
University of Wisconsin. Each of
these schools placed in a tie for
sixth and took eighth place respectively in the NCAA tournament
last year. Lock Haven also placed
ninth in this tournament. Coach
Houck feels.,*that, "By wrestling
tou gh schools, it will make us
stronger when the NAIA tournament is held here in Bloomsburg
on March 14, 15, 16."
The State Championsh ip matches will be held at Shippensburg
this year. This is the first time for
several years that this tournament
has not been held at either Bloomsburg or Lock Haven.
The Huskies met their first opposition when they clashed with
the United States Naval Academy
on November 24, on the Academy's
mats. The regular season will commence on December 1, when the
Husky team will match their power with that of the University of
Nebraska, the University of Wisconsin , and Indiana State. This will
be a one day contest between the
four teams with Indiana State assuming the role of host.
BSC will meet seven teams on
Mt. Olympus this year. The first of
which will be C.W. Post on December 8, in Centennial Gymnasium
with the ju nior varsity matches
beginning at 6:30 p.m. and the first
varsity match slated to begin at
8:00 p.m.
Barring inj uries, Coach Houck is
optimistic about the forthcoming
season. "The season can only be a
successful one after many hard
practice sessions," explained Mr.
Houck, "and we will work hard."
Coach Houck will be assisted by a
senior at BSC, Lee Jackson.
Informal practice sessions began
during the last week in September
and after completing weeks of preparatory workouts, the candidates
began a full schedule of formal
practice sessions. The reason for

Honors Schola rs

the early practice sessions was to
prepare the team for the rugged
meets they face in the Midwest
early in the season . Great enthusiasm was shown on the first day of
practice when forty-five candidates
were present to tryout for positions
on the Husky squad. At present,
there are thirty-four members on
the team, twelve of which1 are
freshmen. This large turnout has
provided for considerable depth in
the team, especially in the lightweight divisions. There are fourteen candidates trying for the top
position in the first two weight
divisions.
The Huskies will have a roster
similar to the one which led them
to the NAIA and State College
Championships last year, with the
exception of Don Poust who is student teaching at the present time.
Don took the State Championship
last year in the 177 pound division.
Bob Hall and Bill Garson, who also
were State Champs last year, will
be among the returning matmen.
Dick Scorese ( 147 pound division) , was the leading point gainer
last year and will be back this year
to try to repeat his performance.
Bill Hughes (123pound division),
is expected to have little competition in this division due to Lock
Haven's loss by Grey Simmons.
Gene Dixon will be out to regain
his title which was lost last year
in the 167 pound division.
Lock Haven, West Chester, and
East Stroudsburg respectively are
to be the Huskies' biggest rivals
this year. Although Lock Haven
has lost the services of Simmons
and Day, they have gained two
State Champions and numerous
other favorable prospects. These
additions to the team may be adequate to make Lock Haven stronger than they have proven themselves to be in previous years.
Without the hindrance of injuries, Coach Houck promises the
fans an entertaining season of
wrestling. The gamut of fans, both
of BSC and surrounding communities, wish Coach Houck and the
Husky matmen success in the coming season.

Novice Debators
Try for Win at TU

Four novice debators will represent BSC at the Temple University tournament. With previous experience at Marywood College in
practice debates, Paul Brosious,
Carol Rynock, and John Witcoski
will be joined by Faye Leiby. Carol
Rynock and John Witcoski also
participated in the Lehigh Clinament to oppose debators from Clarion State, Manhattanville College,
Wilkes College and Marywood with
no decisions rendered.
Varsity debators will travel to the
Villanova Varsity Tournament on
December 8. The team includes
seniors William Vannan, W illiam
Mattern, Bob Gramm, and Ray
Oman a junior .

team, Saturday, November 17, in Husky Lounge. Victors for the Bloomsburg side were t>an Marks and captain Richard Roke. Our team is coached
by Dr. Gil Selders and Mordecai Treblow.
.

Several new features made this match a memorable one. For the first
time, BSC's chess team had an audie'nce. This was made possible by
large wall boards on which the spectators could follow moves without
interfering with the players. These boards were monitored by Bonnie
Lyshan, Kathie Bitterman, and Jim Waters. Also, this was the first college chess match for which advance line-up was published. The line-up
was carried by Bloomsburg's Morning Press and by the Maroon and Gold.

The following students are listed on the Dean's List of BSC for
the second semester of the 1961-62
school term. To qualify for the
•Dean's list a student must have a
3.5 Quality Point Average for the
given semester and a cumulative
average of 3.0.

Rohrer Repeats Star Position;
Frosh And Two Senior s Honored

by Fred Saxton

Since this column came into be*
ing its subj ects have been concerned with the varsity athletic scene
on the BSC campus. We've talked
mostly about the Husky gridders
and their gridiron exploits. Also,
we mentioned the upcoming winter
sports activities. But no mention
has been made 'of BSCs men's intramural athletic agenda. This program has perhaps more student
participants than any other extracurricular activity on campus. And,
in spite of its high number of participants, the program is run efficiently by Mr. Robert Zeigler, faculty director, and Don Watkins, student coordinator.
*

*

*

So far this season, three tournaments have been completed. The
Commuters came out on top of the
soccer tourney ; the Rebels fought
their way to the title in touch footbal
l , and Tom Werts carried away
the honors by shooting 248 points
in archery.
*

*

*

*

*

*

The events mentioned above are
only the beginning of the 1962
BSC intramural program. So men ,
get out and enjoy yourselves. There
is at least one event that should
interest you. To quote Mr. Zeigler
from the Men's Intramural's 196263 Handbook : "Intramurals is a
program for you , , ,"
A few days ago Ifound in my

mailbox a mimeographed sheet
with the 1962 Offi cial Football Statistics of the Husky football squad.
These figures were compiled by
Bari Poorman , football statistician
for the past grid season. Bari is also a member of the M&G sports
staff.
Bari must have put in some time
compiling the figures. He included
everything! Looking over the statistics, I noticed that Bloomsburg
was penalized only 39 times for 400
yards while our opponents played
"dirtier" ball as they were penalized 50 times for 486 yards.
It was noticed also that the
Huskies set two new school records. Against Cheyney, the Blairmen allowed the Wolverines only
four yards rushing (a record ) and
only a net total of 83 yards passing
and rushing (also a record) . Looks
like the Huskies played a bang-up
defensive game at Cheyney.

In case you didn't know it , the
Husky basketball squad opens their
season tonight at RIT. Tomorrow
night they play their second contest, being entertained by Geneseo
College of New York at Geneseo.

DON DENICK
.. ."The Du ke," playing in his last

game, was selected "Lineman of
the Week" in the 19-12 defeat at
East Stroudsburg State two weeks
ago. All three Stroudsburg scores*
came about by bad breaks or one
quick, sparkling play on the part
of the Red Warriors. Duke was one
of these linemen who put pressure
on the passer and runners with
great rushing and crisp tackles
when their backs were to the wall.
Duke is a senior from Upper Merion and is majoring in biology. He
has just finished his fourth and final year of varsity ball here at
BSC.

lege. Two of the seven completed
passes were touchdown passes.
However, good passing was not
enough to overcome the strong
ground game of the Warriors and
Toby Barkman.
Dick has the distinction of being
the only player on the team to earn
the title of "Back of the Week"
twice. He was selected previously
for the 34-14 win over Mansfield
early in the season. This is a title
well deserved as he closes his football career at BSC.

In talking with coach Foster last
w eek, he pointed out that in order
to have a successful season there
are many men on the bench who
will play an important role. Jerry
Doemling will be a tremendous asset to the team if he can master
the forward and center positions.
Bill Regan and Bob Blue will see a
great deal of action at the forward
slot. Jeff Garrison and Bob Farina
will be called upon to spell the
starting guards.
The Eastern Conference of * the
PSCC will probably be the strongest it has been in many years.
Mansfield, Wes t Chest er, and Kutztown have practically the same
teams back from last year. In the
past few seasons Mansfield has
more or less made a runaway with

the eastern title; BSC is the only
team to defeat Mansfield (in a conference game) in the past two
years. This year will be a different
story as BSC, West Chester, and
Kutztown *will all be fighting for
the title.
Starting Lineup
Coach Foster has indicated that
the following men will start the
opening game of the year, Gary
Rupert (Sr. ) and Fran Curran
(Jr. ) as guards, Jim McKinley( Jr. )
and Bob Herzig (Soph.) at the forward position, and Ed Beck (Soph.)
will be at center. This year 's squ ad
has shown a great deal of hustle
in pre-season scrimmages . Another
outstanding quality of this squad is
that of* desire and a good attitude
to play basketball. If the 1962-63
team can display teamwork there
is no reason why they shouldn 't
have another successful season under Coach Foster.
The Huskies will play their first
four games on the road, one of
these games will be against West
Chester . These first games will be
big ones as they could well determine the fut ure of the Husky cagers
for the 1962-63 season. The first
home game will be December 7,
against East Stroudsburg. In order
to have a winning season , the BSC
student body must get behind their
team, lets get out and support our
team on December 7. GOOD LUCK
to the Husky cagers of coach Bill
Foster for 1962-63.

The Husky cagers, under the
guidance of coach Bill Foster, open
a tough 19 game schedule on the
road tonight against Rochester
Tech. This year's squad will be
built around eight returning lettermen and wl
l
i be led by the on ly
senior on the squad, Gary Rupert.
Missing from last year's squad is
Dick Lloyd, who holds just about
every record in basketball at BSC.
Not only was Dick the leading
scorer on last year 's team (24.4
points per game) but. he was also
the leading rebounder (13.6 rebounds per game).
So f ar this year, the Huskies
have scrimmaged three top notch
teams in preparing for the season
opener . In all three contests the
Huskies made very creditable performances. This year's squad is
short on height , this will mean that
they will have to work the ball for
the "one" good shot.

BART WILENSKI

... defensive tackle , was selected "Lineman of the Week" for the
Bloom-Kutztown game three weeks
ago. Early in the second quarter
he came up with one of the most
unusual plays a lineman can make.
The score was 0-0 and Kutztown
had the ball. A mix-up in the backfield enabled Bart to pick up a
loose ball and head toward the
Bear goal-line. As he neared paydirt, a few Kutztown players
caught up to him. Bart lateraled
the ball to Ken Robbins who took
it in for the touchdown.
Bart is a j unior in the business
curriculum. He has j ust finished his
first year of football at BSC, and
should be a bright spot on the line
next year. He comes to Bloomsburg
all the way from Miami, Fla.
KEN ROBBINS
... defensive back and the second
half of the Wilenski-Robbins combination. .Ken scored the only
touchdown on the lateral from
Wil enski , but aside from this, he
was always there when a tackle
was needed. This is why he deserves the title "Back of the
Week." All year long Ken has been
a credit to the Bloomsburg secondary in more ways than one. This is
a credit to Ken as his college football days come to an end after four
years of varsity ball.
Ken is a senior from Williamsport. He is the only defensive back
to be selected this year as the
"Husky of the Week." He is majoring in the field of spec al education.
