DEDICATION To DR. H. HARRISON RUSSELL Whom we acknowledge to be a sound thinker, a friend to everyone and a real man in every way. By living an exem- plary life he has taught us how to adapt ourselves to the natural environment of a school teacher. To him we most gratefully dedicate the 1936 OBITER. i c FOREWORD That we may never forget the familiar scenes of our Alma Mater and the friend- ships made by four college years of asso- ciation and fellowship, the Obiter Staff of 1936 has attempted, through a photo- graphic theme, to leave a permanent pic- ture of what has transpired amid our sur- roundings—treasured memories made more sacred by the march of time. THE STAFF The Obiter Staff of 1936 takes this opportunity to thank all those who have had a part in making the publication of this book possible. The making of this book has re- quired no little time upon the part of the members of the staff, but without the whole-hearted support of the entire student body and faculty it would have been an impossibility. Especially is the staff indebted to the business men whose advertisements appear within this book; the administration for the frequent and necessary use of the reference files: Mr. Wilson, Dr Haas, Mr, Hausknecht, and Mr. Andruss for their advice; and various students for many small contributions which, nevertheless, play an important role in editing any yearbook.

Its loveliness increases; it v ill never Pass into nothingness; but still will keep A bower quiet for us, and a sleep Full of sweet dreams, and health, and quiet breathing. —Keats From Juliet ' s balcony there peered No fairer face, nor sang a sweeter voice Than those that come from Waller. Carver, lifting its head above spidered paths And the dark green coolness of the trees. Ivy, shadowing your wind, Calls you up to drop your books And rest within Old North. History is the knowledge that past generations give; Science is the art of knowing how to live. When the Husky settles down to any season, Noetling, Waller, and the gym Spread-eagle to protect him.

OBITER =1936 To the Class of 1936: I value very much this opportunity to express my best wishes for your success. The outstanding character of your Class is reflected, not only in your academic records, but through the selection and activities of your officers and through your advancement of the Extra-Curricular Life of the College. ' vp [ 18] OBITER 1936 There comes a time in tinat never completed experience which we call man ' s education, when one must take himself in hand and say, My success now depends upon my own ability to do . He must trust himself. He must take himself for better or worse. No one knows his power until he has tried. We call this self-reliance. I wish to leave to the Class of 1936, a class which I have learned to respect greatly and whose ability I admire, this parting word — Know your own worth . If you are genuine the world will find it out. If four years of study and association with other keen minds has sharpened your own to a greater appreciation of beauty, truth, and sincerity, you may safely rely upon your own power to fill a place in the world ' s activity. The world does not owe you a living, but you owe the world the best use of the abilities you have developed Be ready to meet that obligation, and the rewards of work well done will be yours. W. B. SUTLIFF, Dean of Instruction [ 19] OBITER 1936 •St, To the Class of 1936: During the four years cf your college life we have fol- lowed your progress with sympathetic interest. Now that you are leaving the college walls our interest will continue to fol- low you. We wish you happiness and true success. You may be assured that every day will be a Homecoming Day for you at Bloomsburg. MARGUERITE W. KEHR, Dean of Women [20] OBITER 1936 I want to take this opportunity to extend to the members of the graduating class of 1936 my sincere congratulations.

Senior Class Junior Class Sophomore Class Freshman Class Freshman Memorial • The greatest of all joys, the joy of going on — development. [31 ] 1936 Faculty Advisors to the Class of 1936 Professor George Keller was selected as Freshman Class Advisor to help the infant prodigies to establish a stable footing for future class enterprises. The Sophomore class elected Professor S. I. Shortess to succeed Professor Keller as class advisor and to help it in its second year of activity. George Keller S. I. Shortess Howard Fenstemaker Samuel Wilson Freshman Advisor Sophomore Advisor Junior Advisor Senior Advisor To the members of the faculty who, at various time, have served as class advisors and who have given so freely and willingly of both their time and friendly advice which have helped make class projects successful, the Senior Class of 1936 gratefully acknowledges their services and takes this opportunity to express its appreciation. It befell Professor Howard Fenstemaker to act as Junior class advisor at a time when class interest apparently seemed to wane. In an attempt to restore enthusiam and class co-operation Mr. Fenstemaker showed remarkable ability. His efforts at reviving this interest are sincerely appreciated. Especially is the Senior class indebted to Professor Samuel Wilson for everything he has done for it. Not only has he served as Senior Class advisor, but also as advisor to the two publications, thereby giving much constructive criticism and friendly advice to several Seniors on the respective staffs. OBITER 1936 k0i % Wh M i- ' The Senior Class OFFICERS President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer David Mayer Howard Bevilacqua Mary |ane Fink Mary Kuhn Although one of the smallest of Senior classes m its actual enrollment, the Class of 1936 may claim distinct honors for itself. Those who have consti- tuted this year ' s Senior Class have shown real executive ability in many instances and remarkable potentialities while participating in journalism, athletics, musical organizations, and student government. Purposeful activity has revealed the widespread versatility of many of the Seniors. Their talents have not been concentrated in one type of extra-curricular work only but in many. Not everyone can be a leader, it is often truthfully spoken, but the Senior Class of this year has probably had a g reater percentage of leaders than any other class in the history of Bloomsburg State Teachers College. Others have made worthwhile contributions as earnest and active participa- ting members of organizations As Freshmen in the autumn of 1932, the members of the Class of 1936 were quick to adapt themselves to a new environment and they soon learned to become acquainted with each other. These acquaintances broadened out so as to include members of other classes and the faculty. Soon they devel- OBITER [32] 1936 ODed into friendships which have been strengthened by four college years of association. Before they were hardly aware their first year had passed away and they were Sophomores, and then, as if touched by a magic wand, they were converted into Juniors. Half the class who entered in the Autumn of 1932 had departed as two year Seniors to administer to the educational needs of the youth of our State. The remaining members were now forced to carry on as a smaller group. Seniors! ' Yes, indeed! But were they not Frosh just last year? It scarcely seems possible that four years should seem to be drawing to an end so rapidly. At last they are confronted with new experiences in the form of student teaching, experiences which everyone had looked forward to with eagerness and enthusiasm. Autumn and Winter have passed away. Spring is here — balmy weather, spring sports, final examinations, preparations for Class Night and Com- mencement, tearful farewells. Another class graduates from Bloomsburg State Teachers College with diplomas, B.S. degrees, and fond memories. But it is a class which has enriched the traditions and noble ideals of its Alma Mater by its generous contributions to its social and cultural life.

[66j OBITER 19 3 6 rr Junior Class OFFICERS President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Edward Webb Edward Carvey Jane Manhart Thomas Reagen In the fall of 1933, 173 prospective members came to the college com- munity. These Frosh pranced around with heads suspended in the clouds until Upper Classmen brought them down with a bang when they imposed customs on these innocents To celebrate the end of this period of humilia- tion the Frosh held a gay, hilarious Kid Party. From then on. Dr. E. H. Nelson, advisor, saw the Freshmen begin at the bottom and work up to recognition on the campus. The chapel program was a mock program of the college. The year closed with the sponsoring of the first big dance — Freshman Hop. The Sophomore year opened with the entrance of Sophomores into extra-curriculars — athletics, dramatics, journalism, student government — all had their boy and girl representatives. The chapel program — Paul Revere ' s Ride — was held early in the year. Mr. George Keller was elected advisor and he and the class worked hard to make the Sophomore Cotillion a success. Membership in the Junior class was cut in half as the two-year students gra ' duated. The remaining half, however, are exceedingly active in college affairs and make their presence known in a dignified way. The chapel pro- gram and Junior Prom marked outstanding events in this year, and with Dr. Nell Maupin as advisor, the year has been a happy one. [67] R 1936 Seated left to right; M.

The usual jumps lay before them until their acceptance into the gang could be firmly established. The Kid Party offered a last fling before they put aside childish things and adopted a more serious mien; their first attempt at putting their best foot forward resulted in the highly successful Freshman Hop. The chapel program, in the form of a stage show starring The Rattler, scored as an exceptional display of talent. The white hope that was to liberate them from the humiliating customs proved a dismal failure, and the Frosh ignominously went down to defeat at the hands of the Upper Classmen to the tune of 6-2. But this dis- play was not indicative of the athletic ability that come to the fore in inter- collegiate and intramural competition. The class was noteworthy for its con- tributions to sports. As Sophomores, their ranks depleted by fifteen, the army returned with the light of conquest m its eyes; revenge is sweet. The Sophomore Cotillion surpassed the previous social venture in its originality and proved to the satisfaction of all that an inexperienced group had found itself.

The Frosh were sentenced to one month of indignities known as cus- toms. Cries of Allah and reverent salaaming made the front of Carver Hall resemble some Persian Moslem. One was called back to the good old days with the girls running around with pigtails and ribbons in their hair. Come Prepared seemed to have been the greenies ' slogan, for they were seen going around with galoshes and rubbers hanging down their backs. The first social event of the year, the Kid Party, permitted the Fresh- men to just act natural, and a good time was had by all, even to the last realistic touch of lolly-pops and boy scout uniforms. The Freshmen Reception was an informal dance held for the purpose of the underclassmen getting acquainted with the faculty and themselves. Throughout the year the Freshmen have proved themselves to be a part of B. S. T. C. and many of them have already become well-known figures on the campus.

He was named mascot when Roongo died from pneumonia in the early part of the year. Although the death of Roongo is sadly mourned, the selection of Carou as successor may be ac- claimed as a continuation of the ideals which a Husky represents, and an athletic team seeks. He stands for the grim determination to win, the persistence to carry on, aggressiveness in action, depend- ability to do his part, faithfulness to teammates, and the courage to never give up without an honest at- tempt He represents the Blooms- burg athletes, and challenges them to live up to the traditions of the far North.

OBITER 193 6 COACH GEORGE C. BUCHHEIT When a coach produces teams of high calibre possessing speed, ac- curacy, and the ability to win, he is worthy of the recognition and general acclaim of the entire stu- dent body. He has achieved his goal and is deserving of praise. Such has been the accomplish- ments of George C. Buchheit, coach of athletics at Bloomsburg State Teachers College, who has success- fully served in that capacity for the fourth consecutive year. His silent, calm, and friendly ways have done much to win the love, admiration, confidence and will- ingness to co-operate from his ath- letically-inclined charges and to as- sure him success as a coach. Sharing in his success were his two colleagues. Coach Austin Tate, former coach of Lehigh University who joined the faculty in the Fall of 1935. and Raber Seely, former football star at Gettysburg. Both were able to contribute practical suggestions, and knowledge gained by experience. During the football season of 1935, the Husky opponents failed to cross Bloomsburg ' s goal lines. Al- though not nearly so successful on the visitors ' grid field, Husky ball carriers acquitted themselves cred- itably realizing that they had met superior teams. A record of four victories, three defeats, and one scoreless tie makes a fairly good season With the use of Frosh material and the development of a speedy, COACH GEORGE C. BUCHHEIT Quick passing court combination. Coach Buchheit and Seeley gave to Bloomsburg State Teachers College one of the best ball quintets in years. After a prolonged winning streak, it seemed as though the Husky Five would make history by winning the mythical State Teach- ers College championship. These hopes, however, were blasted when a road trip terminated in three consecutive losses. Even at that, the fast playing stellar com- bination concluded its season with two brilliant victories, outplaying its opponents in every respect, and bringing the final results of the sea- son to nine victories and five losses. It is a record which any team may boast about. [84] OBITER 1936 [85] n 1 EH First row, left to right: T. Vershmski. M Mericle, )- Dixon. T Shedloskey, F. Camera. N. Henry. F Rompalo. Captain W.

FOOTBALL Losing only four varsity letter win- ners by graduation, and with twenty frosh candidates boosting the num- ber of grid aspirants to fifty, the husky football camp was a busy place early last September. The willingness to practice regularly, the cc-operation between players and coaches, and the constant high spirits of the squad were reflected in the sterling brand of ball played during the season. Most of the veterans reporting were members of the varsity squad during the fall of 1934. Captain Whitey Moleski signal caller and triple-threat man, headed the sea- soned players, who were again ready to rough it up. Other se- niors eager to don the mole-skins were Tiger-Man Joe Dixon, a vicious tackle, Rip Mericle. a sturdy defensive and offensive lad of three years ' varsity experience, Woody Litwhiler, a smashing end, Frank Rompalo, light but alert ball carrier, and Tommy Vershinski, a ball-snatching end. Under classmen reporting for duty were Johnny Sircovics. cap- tain-elect for 1936-37. Hal Bor- der. Frank Camera, Al Finder, Red Dixon, John Supchinsky. Vance Laubach. Frank Patrick, Ray Schrope. Luther Troutman, Alex Kupstas and Eugene Harney. An un- usually large number of the once scholastic stars turned in very cred- OBITER 1936 itable service. First year men break- ing into the line-up were, Chalmers Wenrich, Ray Erney, Sheldon Jones. Adam Link, Tony Shedlosky. Stan- ley Zelesky, Eldon Krashinsky, Rob- ert Hopfer, Frank Dietrich, Alvin Lipfert, Frank VanDevender, and Mike Stenko. From this group of varsity per- formers, the coaches chose an elev- en for each game. During the en- tire season Coaches Buchheit, Tate, and Seely were assured of capable reserve material, something great- ly appreciated during the more dif- ficult games After a short period of nightly practices, the Huskies emerged from a sea of mud, a 1 9-0 winner of the initial game with Clarion. With water overhead and under- foot, the game settled down to a punting duel, with Captain Mole- ski ' s toe booting the soggy ball to advantage. Gaining ground by later- als and aerials, two touchdown drives were made with Moleski and Finder carrying the ball over. A third six-points was converted when Border fell on a blocked kick in the enemy ' s end zone. The only extra- point was contributed by Krash Krashinski, who crashed his 171 pounds through the line after the second touchdown. Following a week of scrimmage and drilling of plays, when weak- nesses appearing in the Clarion game were patched up, the local eleven opened Millersville ' s sched- ule with a 6-0 victory. The score belied the real power of the locals, for Millersville attained but four first downs to ten for Bloomsburg. No less than five scoring opportuni- ties presented themselves after the ball had been worked deep into Mil- lersville territory with a varied at- tack of running, passing, and punt- ing. The Huskies failed to capital- ize upon any of these, but while the third quarter was yet young, Al Finder, behind flawless blocking and interference, raced 51 yards to tap a goal standing up. Vershinski ' s placement kick went wide of the uprights. Enheartened greatly with two victories under its belt, the squad dug in for a crucial contest with the highly touted Lock Havenites. Rated as the underdog in all localities ex- cept Bloomsburg, the team rose to new heights and battled the heav- ier and more experienced team to a standstill, Bloomsburg ' s defensive tightened about the reverses and spinners of the visitors and at one time held the ball on the one yard line for four successive downs. Along this wall of stone, Mericle, Dixon, and Sircovics were particu- larly resistant. More than once Moleski ' s long punts kept his team out of danger. On October 19, a battered and bruised Husky squad trekked to Mansfield for the fourth game of the season After outgaining, out- passing, outrunning, and outkick- ing the Teachers of Northern Penn- sylvania, Mansfield took a Gamble, reserve back, and eked out a 3-0 win in the waning minutes of the tilt. After this score the Huskies regained their lost spirits, only to have the final whistle end the con- test. As fate would have it, the [86] OBITER 193 6 [87] score, not other factors, decides the winner of gridiron battles. The boys tried hard, but just didn ' t click. Rip Mericle played a bang- up game, recovering several fum- bles and smashing offensive thrusts aimed at the center of the line. With hearts set on blotting out of memory the 3-0 setback at the hands of Mansfield, and determined to uphold Homecoming Day tradi- tions, the members of the squad downed the hitherto-potential State Teachers champions from Indiana, 6-0 Although statistics prove Bloomsburg the better all-around team, the tide surged back and forth with most of the play in mid- field. After three-quarters of most- ly punt exchanges, sprinkled with a mixture of surprising spinners, shovel passes, and reverses, the fireworks began. The tempo of the game quickened and ball carriers flashed around ends, and passes scorched the atmosphere. Near the close of the game, Wennch snatched a long Moleski pass and galloped for the only score of the game Dixon, Mericle, and Sircovics deserve special praise for their smearing tactics, and Henry and Camera upheld the interference end of the game. All of the running backs proved of value, with Lau- bach doing the lion ' s share of the blocking. Again the signs of a hard battle told upon the Huskies, who met a crushing 26-0 defeat at the hands of a powerful Shippensburg eleven That the down state gridders knew of Bloom ' s power is certain, for they wisely bottled up Mericle, Dix- on, Sircovics, Moleski, and Krashin- ski The Huskies battled the oppo- sition on even terms, but cracked in the final quarter to allow three touchdowns to cross their goal line. In the last home game of the season, November 15, the Huskies humbled East Stroudsburg. 12-0, a cherished revenge for the Home- coming defeat of 1934. Dominating in every phase of the game, the lo- cal team so far outplayed the Big Red visitors that a host of substi- tutes were used in the fourth quar- ter. Laubach, up to this time a fine blocking back, turned ball carrier and hammered the opposing line to shreds, Rompalo, directing the team in the absence of the injured Mole- ski did a first-rate job, while Frosh Krashinski, half back, ran wild fo r numerous and lengthy gains. Again the whole line proved its power, with Mericle, Camera, Dixon and Sircovics stopping most of the plays. Playing on frozen turf and in weather below freezing, which greatly handicapped both teams, the Bloomsburg gridders dropped the final game to a powerful Slippery Rock aggregation by the score of 21-6. Immediately after the first whistle of the game the western- ers marched 90 yards to a touch- down. The locals seemed to be off form until late in the fourth canto, when Krashinski, who was about to be tackled, lateraled the ball to Shedloski. Dietrich and Mericle. waylaid two opposing players, and Shedlosky scored. Throughout the game the Huskies failed to fathom the deceptive plays of the strong Rockets.

VARSITY BASKETBALL With only three varsity men re- maining from the 1934-35 court season, Coaches Buchheit and Seely were confronted with the task of molding a strong varsity squad to represent Bloomsburg on the wooden way Hopes were buoyed up when nearly thirty aspirants ap- peared for the initial practice, in- cluding Captain Edge Phillips, Ruckle, Blass, Gering, Slaven, D Litwhiler. and Withka; holdovers from last season. New faces repre- sented were Banta, Smethers, Rob- ison, Snyder, Rishe. Kahfer, Har- mony and Ciermak. After less than a week of prac- tice, the college quintet began one of the most successful court seasons in recent years by downing the Alumni stars 51 to 29. Nine men, SIX of them frosh , saw service in this tilt, with Capt. Phillips and Junie Ruckle capturing scoring honors. After this victory the Coaches ' worries disappeared, for the new boys, steadied greatly by the three veterans, lived up to and beyond expectations. In an exciting and hard-fought contest, the Huskies dropped the first inter-collegiate game to a vet- eran Ithaca College squad of lanky lads, 36-35. Against the towering five from New York State, the young team gained a moral victory. Gathering more field goals than the opposition, our players failed to take advantage of fifteen free throws. Although Ruckle proved [90] OBITER 193 6 [91 ] the chief point-getter, the entire squad played heady ball and showed marked improvement. Just before the Christmas vaca- tion a speedy Susquehanna Uni- versity squad trampled the locals 36-27, after a nip and tuck first half, which ended with the Crusad- ers one point to the good. With these two games bringing out the weak spots, the members of the squad went home for a two weeks ' vacation, after which they came back to turn in a long string of vic- tories. With the holidays behind them, the Huskies claimed Mansfield as their first Teachers College victim. In the lead almost from the open- ing whistle and excelling in all de- partments of the game, the bas- keteers coasted to a 39-27 triumph on Mansfield ' s court. Showing more added power, speed and accuracy than before, the Maroon and Gold five bowled over the Lock Haven- ites on the local court, 46-30. From the initial whistle the locals sprang into the lead, never to be overcome. By scoring 12 of 21 field goals un- der the basket, the team exhibited ability to work the ball in. Cap- tain Edge Phillips and Ruckle were the chief point contributors. Functioning in splendid style, Buchheit ' s court machine displayed tDWARD PHILLIPS, Captain GEORGE KESSLER, Manager OBITER 1936 a fine defensive and offensive to overpower Mansfield, 39-18, Limit- ing their opponents to four field goals, Capt. Phillips and his running mates ran up sixteen two-pointers. Two full teams saw action, with scoring honors quite evenly divided. Embarking upon a road trip with all the optimism in the world, the entire squad proved its worth by bringing back the scalps of Ship- pensburg and Millersville. two bril- liant teams. After subduing the former opponent by the score of 34 to 27, the boys continued to Mil- lersville where a last minute ral ly helped Bloomsburg to gam a 49 to 41 win. The return Shippensburg contest postponed because of excessive snow, was never played. Coming from behind in the second half of a close game, the Huskies triumphed over a strong East Stroud combina- tion. With the lead changing several times in the final chukker, this game was the most exciting played on the home floor. Only after two Frank Merriwell shots by Ruckle during the closing minutes of the game did Buchheit ' s basketeers emerge a 41 to 36 victor. Realizing that three difficult as- signments confronted them the Huskies prepared for three consecu- tive away games with Lock Hav- en. Indiana, and East Stroudsburg, Unable to click against a smooth- working Lock Haven squad, the boys dropped that game by a 37 to 29 score. After a difficult trip over snowbound roads, the team lost a close one to Indiana. 39 to 35, Hav- ing the advantage in field goals, the players converted but 8 of 1 8 free chances. After but a day ' s rest, a squad of eight traveled by taxi to East Stroudsburg, where the Big Red quintet took our measure 44 to 34. With the opponent ' s forwards gar- nering numerous goals, Capt, Phillips upheld the B, S, T, C, cause with 8 points Snapping a three-game losing streak, the local five crushed to sub- mission a good Millersville team. In this 51 to 35 victory Capt Edge Phillips, with four years ' varsity ex- perience under his belt, made his last appearance on the home court. Winding up the season with a 37 to 22 decision over Susquehanna, the Huskies completed a highly suc- cessful basketball schedule. Varsity letter winners were Cap- tain Phillips, Captain-elect Ruckle, Robison. Banta. Withka. Smethers, Blass. and Senior Manager Kessler.

JUNIOR VARSITY BASKETBALL After the freshmen jay Vees trounced the upperclassmen in the preliminary to the alumni contest, the coaches had a difficult task in selecting the J. V. squad for the season. Starting with a bang, the Jay Vees began an undefeated sea- son by conquering Susquehanna 32-28. The game was fast and furious from beginning to end. In continuing a season well be- gun the Bloomsburg Pups literally went to town. Through a brilliant display of real basketball playing matched with a determined ag- gressiveness they successfully de- feated every team which came their way. By playing a very good brand of ball during every game on the sched- ule, the Jay Vees proved themselves capable of filling varsity vacancies. Quite frequently J V. players were used in varsity contests. Members of the team who worked diligently in games and during practice were; A Ciermak, J Slaven, F VanDe- vender, P. Snyder, C.

Coach When a college nine completes a twelve-game schedule without a single defeat it deserves the title of Baseball Champions of Pennsyl- vania State Teachers ' Colleges. That this achievement boosted the consecutive games won to an even twenty adds to the praise of such a team and its coach. The completion of the 1933-34 season, marred only by the loss of the initial game, attracted many followers to the All-American sport of baseball. As a result the begin- ning of last spring ' s baseball prac- tice found Coach Nelson flooded with eager prospects. With an abundance of mate rial remaining from the previous season, very few newcomers could aspire to a first string berth Nevertheless, Al Finder of Sha- mokin. a finished fielder and a time- ly hitter, cavorted around third base most of the season. At times Bill Karshner, utility infielder, replaced him. Dink Riley, a flashy short- stop from Danville, proved a bul- wark offensively and succeeded in smashing hits when sorely needed. One more recruit. Danny Litwhiler, established himself as a permanent fixture in right field because of his ability to clout extra-base hits and to convert hits of the opposing players into shoestring catches. Woody Litwhiler, captain- elect for the 1935-36 season, and Whitey Moleski bore the brunt of the pitching. The strong arms of these huskies played an important part in mowing the way to the long string of victories. Both boys were also quite potent with the stick. At times these fellows were given a respite when Johnny Slaven. Cobb, and D. Litwhiler would twirl for a few innings. [96] OBITER 1936 97] Seated, left to right: B Cobb, W. Moleski, W Litwhiler.

In- nings played were shared almost equally by Bennett Dry. veteran. and Joe Visotski. former infielder. Both of these lads glued themselves to foul tips and kept base stealing at a minimum Cobby Cobb, the iron man of the team, connected for extra-base hits more frequently than any other player. His polished fielding around the i nitial sack saved various team- mates more than one error. Cob- by was also responsible for keep- ing up the high morale of the team throughout the strenuous season. Completing the roster were the fielders Charles Blackburn. Tom- my Vershinski. V asheleski. and Captain Beck. Due to an early sea- son injury Captain Beck saw only A Iff- WOODROW LITWHILER. Captain 1936 OBITER 193 6 part service.

As coach. Dr. Nelson filled this ca- pacity capably, as evidenced by the records of the past two years. With- out proper equipment the team would have been greatly handi- capped, but the team members were always supplied with the necessi- ties of baseball by the hustling man- agers, Butler, Turnow, and Peck.

Champi, TRACK 1935 After the annual inter-class track meet, which gave Coach Buchheit opportunity to choose likely pros- pects, the Maroon and Cold track- men eked out a close 64-62 win over a strong East Stroudsburg aggrega- tion on Mt. Olympus, It was at this meet that six field records were shattered, three by the visitors and the others by the Huskies. Luff, Stroud hurdling star, was supreme in the two timber-topping events, and he established records in both high and low hurdles. Weinzier, another visitor, put the shot 39 feet 1 inch, over a foot and a half better than the previous mark. Blass, virtually a one-man track team, chief point getter, and captain-elect for 1936, established a new mark of 24.1 records for the 220 yard dash A few minutes later he leaped 5 feet 7 inches for a new high jumping record. Louis Bertoldi, star distance runner, showed his heels to the pack and traveled the mile in 4 minutes, 50,3 seconds, three seconds faster than )im Karne ' s record of 1934. Captain Sell easily captured first position in his specialties, the 440 and 880. Showing marked superiority in all events but the hurdles, the Huskies were impressive in a 80 1 -3 to 35 2-3 win over Lock Haven. After the second meet it was evi- dent that the greater part of Bloomsburg ' s points would be con- tributed by Blass, Sell, Bertoldi, and Vershinski. In this the Huskies [ 99 OBITER ±936 swept three events on the program; the mile, discus, and broad jump. Shippensburg, the first team to defeat the Huskies in two years, turned the trick by the score of 66 2-3 to 59 1 -3 when Sorge ' s final fling of the javelin bettered the mark of Danny Litwhiler by 2 inch- es. Captain Sell completed his four years of dual competition unde- feated in his favorite run, the half mile. In all dual meets this year he captured first place in both the 440 and 330. In the annual State Teachers Col- lege track and field meet held at Harrisburg, Bloomsburg finished in a tie with Slippery Rock for third place, each team scoring 18 points At this time Captain Sell finished a brilliant four-year collegiate career by establishing a new half mile re- cord of 2:03:7 for a four curve course. Other point winners in the state meet were Blass, Vershinski, Bertoldi, and Line. Track Results of 1935 B.S.T.C. — 64 E.

' B CLUB OFFICERS President lulia Schlegel Vice-President Eleanor Morris Secretary Sara Shuman Treasurer Alice Auch Sponsor Miss Lucy McCammon The B Club, a well established or- ganization upon the college campus, has entered the eighth year of its existence. Its members are active, athletically-interested girls who gain membership by successfully participating in activities sponsored by Miss McCammon. The club forms an outlet for the athletic en- ergy of the girls who join it. Its purpose is to promote clean sports and healthful activity for all girls. Entrance into the organization is based upon a point system. For each hour spent in individual or group sports, points are given varying ac- cording to the kind of activity. Each year new members are initiated at a week-end party. Meetings are held on the second Thursday of each month. One day every week is B Club day. Thurs- day IS B day. and at this time girls wear their white sweaters and well earned letters. The B club offers cageball. [ 101 ] OBITER 193 6 tennis, volleyball, baseball, basket- ball, hockey, swimming, and hiking on its program. B club members officate at the girls ' athletic events, and also take charge of the tourna- ments, organizing teams, and plan- ning and refereeing games. By selling candies, peanuts, tags and feathers the B Club has been able to raise enough money to be- gin work on a log cabin of its own. Plans are being devised for the cabin which the club hopes to complete in the near future. GIRLS ' ATHLETICS Through the efforts of Miss Mc- Cammon a group of girls was asked to officiate at outdoor basketball games between various high school teams in the county The games started m October and continued until the end of December. Two girls acted as referee and umpire of each game. Six of them were B Club girls and the other three were prospective members. The following is a list of the girls who gained a great deal of experi- ence from those games: Marie Davis Muriel Stevens Martha Dreese Florence Snook Anne Crcsek Mary Grosek Beatrice Thomasjulia Schlegel Anne Ebert In addition to these games last fall, Julia Schlegel refereed twelve varsity games for Scott Township High School during the winter. She was assisted by Florence Snook and Anne Ebert. After the varsity sea- son was over she also refereed intra- mural games at the same high school. Left to right . M. Davis. M, Dreese. A Crosek. B.

The first league ended January 25, and the second one March 6 The teams in the first league were organized by the manager, whereas the teams m the second were organized by the girls them- selves. Games were played every Monday and Friday. The following girls, composing Team V in the first league and Team I in the second league were the champions: Forwards: Roberta Lentz Sara Dersham Dorothy Englehart Guards; Helen Seesholtz Jeanne Reifendifer Donnabelle Smith The following girls deserve men- tion for their ability and loyalty to their team : Sara Dersham Roberta Lentz Dorothy Englehart Mary Boyle Lucille Adams Helen Mayan Forwards; Martha Dreese Martha Wright B etty Savage Helen Shank Marthy Greenly Amanda Walsh Anne Ebert Guards; Julia Schlegel Anne Seesholtz Eleanor Sharadin Donnabelle Smith leanne Reifendifer Irene Bonin Margaret Shubert Dorothy DuBois Annabel Bailey Margaret Graham Games for beginners were played each Thursday afternoon. Many of these beginners advanced to the ex- perienced group for the second league. The following girls were outstanding in the beginners group. Grace Killari Julia Selecky Eva Reichley Helen Derr Ruth Miller Lottie Shook Helen Hart Each game is officiated by a ref- eree and an umpire who has passed the official test. These girls acted as officials: Schlegel, Snook, Sharadin, Lentz, Dersham, and Ebert. Scorer — Orner; Timer — Ammerman, Reichley. Points were earned by playing in these leagues by the girls in their efforts to secure admission to the B Club. Besides planning for outings for the B Club girls. Miss McCam- mon director of all girls ' athletics, provided an opportunity this year for B Club and non- B Club members to enjoy the out-of-doors by sponsoring steak fries and wein- er roasts nearly every week until Thanksgiving. Cage Ball Due to the outdoor courts. Cage- ball was a great drawing card for girls in the 1935 season of activi- ties. Both upperclass and freshmen girls played the game, but many of the upperclass girls were chosen to referee the games. The majority of those having the highest number of OBITER 1936 points were girls of the freshman class. These should receive special mention : Lucille Adams Sarah Amerman Irene Bonin Lucmda Vought Claire Davis Helen Derr Sara Dersham Lois Farmer Anne Fetterman Evelyn Freehafer Betty Harter Grace Keller Harriet Kocher Roberta Lentz Dorothy Long Ruth Miller Anna Orner Mary Palsgrove Eva Reichley Mary Reis. ' er Helen Selecky Cecile Sheets Donnabelle Smith Mary Smith Martha Steininger Jean Stifnagle All of these girls had earned at least 100 points in all scheduled games. Besides these games some girls played every extra game and all of them played in the gym. These brought their total to 160 points. The following are those who de- serve special credit as officials of the games: Margaret Creasy Mary Crosek Anne Ebert Anna Orner Margaret Graham Gladys Rinard Anne Grosek Julia Schlegel Florence Snook Volley Ball The volley ball season opened March 9 Teams were organized according to classes with ten members to a team Intramural competition add- ed extra zest to the games. It proved so successful that the next sport baseball started in full swing. The girls were allowed to organize their own teams for this game. OBITER [104] 1936 [ 105] INTRAMURALS Intramurals are the medium of ath- letic activity which definitely aims to include everyone in the college community. In order for intramu- rals to be most beneficial in molding better relationships with each other, the faculty must surely be admitted to its activities. Although the facul- ty did not respond too readily, some of them co-operated with the stud- ent intramuralists. The intramural program began even before the varsity sports. A fall tennis tournament which in- cluded sixty-four participants began on a sunny September day with practically every one interested in it. Some of the early matches were good entertainment; Chalmers Wenrich rushed down from the football field, picked up a racket (for the first time) and promptly became eliminated; Bevilacqua swung three times at the same ball before he hit it and Savage ran four to five pounds off of Kline ' s ample waist. The later matches were better tennis. Yeager in the lower bracket defeated Merrill aft- er a brilliant three set match in which Yeager had considerable dif- ficulty in proving his superiority, while Smethers, the leader in the upper bracket, won in straight sets. Nature provided a day in Octo- ber, clear as a woodland spring, calm as a baby ' s sleep, and warm as a Mediterranean summer for the fin- al five set match which only needed three as Smethers, the Berwick en- trant, emerged victorious after a splendid recoup in the third set when the score was 0-5 against him, taking 7 games straight. The tennis tournament dwindled away into eternity as the beautifully colored leaves began to litter the tennis courts and the golden sun, becoming older with the year, be- gan resting from its journey across the heavens on to the distant hori- zon at a much earlier hour, leaving the courts to the all-consoling night. Tradition humbly bowed before precedent as the Upper Class- Frosh football rampage became a verbal argument echoing and re- echoing through North Hall and the new Day Mens ' room. Ping-pong made its debut with an enthusiasm that was unparalleled in B.S.T.C. A field of 64 paddlers began the eliminations on Decem- ber 12, 1935. A great deal of in- terest characterized the tourney from beginning to end and strewn along the way were Merrill, Miller, Tomalis, Ziller, Coblentz, Cornely, Troutman and Miller Houck. Mc- Kechnie, Kershner, Jones, Young, Lau, Thomas and Smethers ad- vanced a few rounds but were soon eliminated. The finals found Prof. Koch matched against Cinquergrani. It was a spirited match in which Prof. Koch became the winner and first Ping-Pong champion of B.S.T.C. Some others who partici- pated were Green, Cohen, Zeiss, Shutt, Saltzer. Clemens, Kantner, Watts, Savage. Kline, Martin, Slav- en. Richie, Bianco, Wolfe, Faick, Revels and Thomas. The winner and OBITER 1936 runner-up of the tournament were invited to participate at Philadel- phia. The annual intramural basket- ball league began its activities al- most the same time as the ping- pong tournaments. Over sixty-four people joined various teams and un- der colorful names and banners be- gan their battles from 9:30 to 1 1 :30 every Monday. Tuesday, and Thurs- days evenings in the college gym- nasium. The Parasites, composed of Hop- fer. Harmony, Simpson, Miller, and Strausser — all Bloomsburg boys — , came through as the victors It took the college jay-vees to give them their first defeat The Moc- casins, composed of Camera. Mo- leski, Schrope. Supchinski, and Rompalo came in second. Basketball cheers were still hov- ering among the rafters when wrestling entered the lists for re- cognition Fourteen boys began an elimination contest to see which one of them could outgrapple the other. Mats were strewn on the floor in the old supply room where every night at four o ' clock grunts and groans from Bill Tannery ' s pro- teges could be heard issuing from behind closed doors. The grunt-and- groan artists of the mat were Bader, Casari, Champi, Hcuch, Hunter, Woytovich, Laubach, Derr, Lewis, Falcone, Wanich, Trapane, Stenko, Zeleski. Simultaneously on the basketball floor again, Lau was methodically chalking down the score of Prof. Koch as he sank fouls for a grand total of 76 out of a hundred pos- sible fouls. McCutcheon, Cinque- grani. Bowers and Coblentz were just behind. Many other partici- pated but were eliminated as they failed to meet the requirements. The volleyball tournament be- gan with a bang! Of the faculty Dr. Nelson, Prof. Koch, Coach Buch- heit, Dr Russell, Prof. Reams. Prof. Shortess and Prof. Fisher entered their banners among the seven oth- ers of the student teams. Approxi- mately fifty participated in this de- lightful sport. Intramurals are up and coming as can easily be seen. There is a definite schedule being worked out for next year and every male member of the college community can eventually take part in his fav- orite intramural activity Once that happens the goal for intramural sports will be reached and everyone can then enjoy some sport.

KAPPA DELTA PI Camma Beta Chapter, Established February 21 OFFICERS 1931 President Vice-President Recording Secretary Corresponding Secretary Treasurer Historian Sponsor Kappa Delta Pi grew out of a local society, the Illinois Educational Club, which was founded at the University of Illinois in 1909. The present national honorary society in education was incorporated on June 9, 1911 at the same univer- sity. Mervin W. Mencle Charles P. Michael Verna E, Jones Kathryn B. John Bernard J. Young Elmira A. Bankes Harvey A. Andruss The purpose of Kappa Delta Pi IS to encourage high intellectual and personal standards during the preparation for teaching and to re- cognize outstanding service in the field of education. The latter pur- pose makes possible the establish- ment of a Laureate Chapter, whose [116] OBITER 1 936 L 117 rnembership is composed of out- standing educators of the world. Among these are John Dewey, Ed- ward Lee Thorndike and William Kilpatrick. Gamma Beta Chapter of Blooms- burg State Teachers College was in- stalled on February 21, 1931, by Dr. A. L. Hall-Quest Membership consists of men and women chosen from the upper quartile of the ju- nior and Senior classes. Juniors must have completed six semester hours in education and Seniors twelve semester hours These are national requirements The fraternity has a student membership of approximately fifty, a large alumni membership, a facul- ty membership of sixteen, and six honorary members, including Dr. Francis B. Haas, Dr. D. J. Waller, Dr. j. N. Rule, Dr J Herbert Kelly, W. B. Sutliff, and ). E. Shambach. The outstanding activities of the year 1935-36 include pledge serv- ices, initiation services and regular meetings at which local faculty members spoke. The President was sent as a delegate to the biennial na- tional convocation at St. Louis. The Chapter also co-operated in making the Inter-Fraternity Ball a success. As a closing activity of the year. Gamma Beta Chapter of Kappa Del- ta Pi held Founders Day on April 25. In commemoration of its estab- lishment an educational and social program was sponsored Dr Joseph Nocnan of Mahanoy City spoke.

Reams Phi Sigma Pi, a professional educa- tional fraternity for men in teacher training institutions, has, under the leadership of Howard Waite, contributed much to the educa- tional and social life of the college The educational meetings have been rich with informal discussions on important current problems. Socially, smokers at various fa- culty homes, at which problems in education were discussed, were en- joyed by all attending. On October 22, 1935, Phi Sigma Pi held an informal pledge service in the Riding Academy grove south of Bloomsburg. Prof. Koch gave a short informal talk on the value and significance of the fraternity. On January 15. 1935. Dr North [118] OBITER 1936 [119] entertained the fraternity at his home. A round table discussion concerning professional ethics with particular stress on conduct at school was led by Dr. North and was unusually informative. The Annual Inter-Fraternity Ball was the crowning feature of Phi Sigma Pi ' s participation in social af- fairs, lota Chapter has certainly lived up to its ideals in providing fellow- ship and an increase in educational knowledge, not only for its mem- bers, but for the college as a whole.

Sponsor .... Students who major in geography or who take more than the neces- sary core subjects in it and who have the requisite scholastic rating in both geography and other college work have an opportunity to join the Gamma Theta Upsilon, the only national honorary geography fra- ternity. The fraternity ' s principal objec- Charles P. Michael LaRue Derr Beatrice Thomas Verna Morawski Jane Manhart Dr. H. Harrison Russell tives are to promote fraternalism among those who have chosen geog- raphy as a major field in education, to advance the professional status of geography as a cultural and prac- tical phase of education, and to create and administer a loan fund to aid alumni members in graduate study in the field of geography Delta Chapter may boast of many [120] OBITER 1936 [121 ] distinctions which can rightfully be accorded it. Probably the most out- standing one was the election of Richard Halliburton, famous travel- er, lecturer and author, as an hon- orary member. In February, 1932, Rear Admiral Richard E Byrd of Antarctica fame became an honor- ary member. Local fraternity members point with pride to the fact that Dr. H. Harrison Russell is not only sponsor to the Bloomsburg Chapter, but national president of Gamma Theta Upsilon as well. This honor is most appropriate for one who has the abilities and geographical back- ground of knowledge and experi- ence which Dr. Russell has. The unusually large membership this year shows the growing import- ance of geography as a course of study. Eighteen new members were initiated by Delta Chapter. Approximately one-fourth of the seniors of this year had majored in geography, and of those, practically all were members of Gamma Theta Upsilon. Participation in the Annual In- ter-Fraternity Ball and contribution of a news letter to national head- quarters marked some of the most outstanding activities. This news letter, composed by Bernard Young, Daniel Jones, Jay Pursel, and Bea- trice Thomas, will be compiled with letters from other chapters to make a national news letter. Other highlights in the program for the year were a report by Dr. Russell on a convention of geog- raphers which he had attended; an interesting illustrated talk by Miss Hazen on a Carribean trip which she had taken during the summer; various talks by students; and the annual Founders ' Day banquet and installation of officers at the end of the year.

Shortess The Young Men ' s Christian Asso- ciation Is a college organization de- signed to carry out the ideals of Y.MC.As ' throughout the world, emphasizing the development of body, mind, and spirit. It has tried to formulate its program this year upon those ideals. Having had an appointed time in September to entertain the Fresh- men, the first task of the members was to initiate them into the col- lege community. The warm hand of friendship and fellowship was ex- tended to them. The membership this year was one of the largest in the history of the organization at Bloomsburg. The drive for new members began with a weiner roast for all men, in Dillon ' s Hollow, where a delightful evening was spent It was here that [124] OBITER 1 936 [125] the new students became acquaint- ed with the genuine fellowship of the ' Y . One of the highlights of the sea- son ' s activities was the Christmas party held for the under-privileged boys of Bloomsburg. The men co- operated in making this charity pro- ject a success and showed a true Christmas spirit by making less for- tunate hearts happier. A very enjoyable event was the mid-winter swimming party at Danville. The Board of Directors of the Danville Y.M C.A. were hosts to the Bloomsburg students. Be- sides swimming, the party was able to bowl, play basketball, pmg pong, and pocket billiards. The trip was made by bus after the heaviest snowfall of the winter. The association took an active part in the work conducted by the State Student Council and sent del- egations to the Student-Faculty Conference at Lebanon Valley Col- lege in December and the Spring Cabinet-Training Conference to Kutztown in April The delegates in the fall reported a very interesting and worthwhile conference, where Dr. Robert I Black, Mr C L Wuert- enberger. Dr. H. D. Hoover, Philo C. Dix and Dr. Clyde L. Lynch, President of Lebanon Valley Col- lege, were the main speakers, who emphasized the topic: Christ in My Professional Life. The theme of this year ' s program was the character, and personality of the teacher in the light of physi- cal, mental, and spiritual develop- ment. Some of the purposes in- volved in our weekly meetings were to stimulate thought about present- day topics which were discussed by Prof. E. A Reams. Dr. H Harrison Russell, Prof. H. A. Andruss. Dr. W. L. Calbreath, and Prof. J. |. Fisher; to stimulate character de- velopment, discussed by Dr. E. H. Nelson, Prof. J. C. Koch. Mr. Harry Barton. Father Stuart Cast; and to hear interpretations of religion, discussed by Prof. W W. Evans, and Dr. K. C. Kuster. Discussions of world peace, ra- cial differences and philosophies of life took place in student forums. The ' Y also co-operated in joint meetings with the Y.W.C A and helped sponsor a day of prayer ves- per service in the auditorium. These meetings were of interest to all.

OFFICERS President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Sponsor For many years the Young Women ' s Christian Association has been one of the largest and most active or- ganizations on the campus. It has been the custom of this organization for the past few years to welcome the freshmen at an aft- ernoon tea. During the year the largest project undertaken was a Winter Festival and with the co- operation of each member it proved to be a very successful affair. A few of the new events added Mildred Auten Amanda Babb Helen Merrix Gladys Brennan Pearl Mason to the calendar for this year were a get-together dinner which was held in the college dining room. Rev. Coyle of Milton was the guest speaker. Another new event was a week-end cabinet retreat at which plans for the entire year were discussed and arranged. Perhaps the most highly appre- ciated service rendered during the year was the contribution of a Christmas purse to a worthy family in Bloomsburg. [126] OBITER 1936 [127] The organization was represented at the Student Christian Movement Conference held at Eagles Mere during the summer. Representatives were also sent to the Spring Train- ing Conference at West Chester and the Buck Hill Falls Intercollegiate Conference. The regular weekly meetings which were planned by members of the organization under the di- rection of a devotional chairman proved to be very interesting. As a result, another successful year has been recorded by the Y at Bloomsburg. This success was largely brought about by the splen- did co-operation and guidance of Miss Pearl Mason, the faculty ad- visor.

The plays are directed by a stu- [130] OBITER 1936 [131 ] dent under the supervision of the club director. The club also presents many plays in public before various groups, such as clubs in Blooms- burg and nearby towns, the Student Government Party, Crippled Chil- drens ' Christmas Party, and Ki- wanis-Rotary All College Night. There are two big projects spon- sored by the Bloomsburg Players every year. The first is the annual tournament of one act plays, in which different casts, each with its own student director, compete against each other. The second big event is the an- nual long play. This year Twelfth Night by William Shakespeare was presented Membership to the club is gained by try-outs before a committee composed of club members and di- rector. The club is a stepping-stone to two high honors; one, admission to Alpha Psi Omega, the National Honorary Dramatic Fraternity, and the other, the Gold Pin Award. There are specific requirements for eligibility to the fraternity, all of which may be met by those par- ticipating in any of the club enter- prises. The Cold Pin is a merit award given each year to six per- sons who have done outstanding work during their membership in the club. These awards are de- cided upon by a point system in- cluded in the by-laws of the club constitution. Points are earned in the various phases of dramatics. OBITER 1936 First row. left to right: M.

The purpose of this new organiza- tion is to sponsor the publication of a volume containing verse writ- ten by members of the faculty and student body, to study the works of modern authors, and to develop among students an appreciation of poetry. Many worthwhile activities have been carried on, continuing the work which was begun last year by a group of students known as the poetry committee. One of the out- standing accomplishments of the club has been to encourage students to submit their own verse to the club for criticism and suggestions.

The Bloomsburg Press Club, a new organization on the campus, grew out of a long-felt need for organiza- tion among those doing journalistic work to advance and progress into a deeper study of practical news- paper work. One of its chief objects is instruction and motivation in journalistic procedure, and the earl- ier meetings of the club were de- voted almost entirely to a study of practical problems. The first project undertaken by the club involved constructive cri- ticism of neighboring high school H. P. Bevilacqua Ruth Smethers Josephine Magee Amanda Walsh S. I. Wilson publications Most of the schools in the Bloomsburg service area re- ceived invitations to submit their publications for criticism, and sev- eral of the papers received in re- sponse have been marked and re- turned. In March the club took over the publicity work of the college, oper- ating as a news bureau. In this work each member was assigned certain stories to write concerning the ac- tivities at Bloomsburg. and these stories were then sent to town newspapers. OBITER 1936 THE 1936 OBITER Charles P.

The same association awarded the Maroon and Cold a red ribbon for excellency in the second class of newspapers Earlier in the term the Maroon and Cold had joined two collegiate associations, the Associated Teach- ers College Press, and The Asso- ciated Collegiate Press. The bene- fits derived from membership in both associations did much to help make the Maroon and Cold the best in its history. More time was spent on prepar- ing the staff for journalistic work this year than in previous years, every reporter having been required to attend an instructional meeting once every week during the first semester and once every month during the second semester. The discussion for the most part was slanted towards preparation of ad- visors to high school publications. MAR)ORIE BEAVER The paper itself did not change in physical make-up or size, al- ' though in content it showed much expansion, especially in coverage. The editorial page took on a more inclusive form, having been made the section for editorials, features, jottings from other colleges, wit and humor, and syndicated material. The sports page stretched into more phases of athletics and be- came not only the bulletin board of sporting activity but a printed re- cord of all sports contests. The college paper probably made more advancement this year than any year since its establish- ment. It has at least marked a defi- nite and rapid advancement towards a more representative college news- paper, and with the election of a capable editor for next year and the continued support of an ambitious reportorial and editorial staff, there is every reason to believe that in another two or three years the paper will be the best in its class.

This year three high school casts competed in each class, the plays produced representing what most spectators claimed to be the best in the history of the tournament. Cos- tuming, acting, and presentation were judged excellent for all six schools. North Scranton ' s winning play was Anton Tchekoff ' s A Marriage Proposal. Members of the cast and their characterizations were: Wil- liam Leveeing, who played Stephen Tscheibukev; Barbara Burns, who play Natalie Stephanovna ; Charles Kinsley, Ivan Lomov. Ralph Hodges, an alumnus of Bloomsburg and a member of Alpha Psi Omega, di- rected the winning play. Orangeville, in winning in Class B competition, presented Marguer- ite Phillip ' s Pink Geraniums. Members of the cast of this play, and the parts they played follow: Sheldon Hess, as John Barrows: Ma- rie Parsell. Mrs. John Barrows: Ber- that Rose Miller, Jessie Wells: Jo- sephine Chamberland, Mrs. Carey: and Max Smith, as Jim Nelson. Mr. C. M. Davis directed the play. Other schools represented include Hazleton Senior High, Berwick, Coal Township, Orangeville, and Millville. Alumni members of the local chapter of Alpha Psi Omega who acted as judges were : Miss Kar- leen Hoffman, Miss Elizabeth Bow- man, and Mr. Maynard Pennington. Mr. Pennington presented loving cups to the winners. Each cup con- tains the Creek letters of the fra- ternity sponsoring the contest and the following inscription: H. S. Play Tournament, B. S. T. C. 1936. Judges selected the following in- dividual students as outstanding in casts other than those from Scran- ton and Orangeville: Jane Zimmer- man, Berwick: Robert Hand. Coal Township: Margaret Itler, Hazle- ton: Bernard Taylor, Millville. Miss Alice Johnston, director of dramatics at the College, and fa- culty sponsor of the Alpha Psi Omega High School Play Tourna- ment, claims that this year ' s tour- nament brought to Bloomsburg the best group of plays ever produced in the history of the contest. Two of the plays, A Marriage Propos- al, produced by Scranton, and The Boor, produced by Hazleton, were written by Anton Tchekoff, one of the world ' s greatest dramatists. Others played in the auditorium this year were Miss Molly, by Elizabeth Gale: ' Grandpa Pulls the Strings, by Edith Delano: Pink Geraniums : A Message from Khufu, a play by Stuart Cottman. The plays were well presented. [154] OBITER 1936 TWELFTH NIGHT WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE On Friday, April 3, the stage of the ° y her twin brother.

Punctual- ity in appearing for individual or group sittings, a kindly word of cri- ticism or advice, a seemingly trivial contribution in some way, — all these are things which only an editor can appreciate. To the Poetry Club which con- tributed fragments of verse for campus views, to students who have given of their time and energy with- out any open recognition, to the administration for the use of vari- ous buildings for photography, we extend our appreciation. We offer many thanks to Dr. Haas. Mr. Hausknecht, Mr. Wilson and Mr. Andruss for well-given ad- vice on financial matters We thank Mr. Sutliff for the use of his of- fice records. We owe much to the Community Government Association which has given us a liberal financial contrib- ution that aided us greatly Especially do we feel indebted to the various business men and com- panies who, through their finan- cial support, have greatly helped to make possible this publication. They have been real friends to the col- lege and rightfully deserve its pat- ronage. Kutztown Publishing Company, Pontiac Engraving Company, Zam- sky Studios, Jack Geistwhite Studio, and Reno Bush have all made major contributions for which the Obiter feels no limitations in its expres- sions of gratitude.

LOOK FORWARD TO THEM! OUR BUSINESS LIFE, by Llovd L. Jon is. A iLinior business text that recoi nizes the part played by the individual in business or in economic community hfe. It deals with the effective and efficient use of the common business services. The foundation which it builds for business-like livmg also serves as a foundation for further study of business subjects and for work in the business world. Filled with worthwhile student activity, it generates enthusiasm for the course on the part of both the teacher and the student. Can be used with or without the correlated work book. Beautifully printed, profusely illus- trated, and unusually readable. SALESMANSHIP FOR EVERYBODY, by John T. A. Ely, Washington, D. C. and Dr. Danikl Starch, New York City. A sales- manship text that is well balanced and con- forms to modern business situations. Written by a practical salesman and an international authority on advertising and salesmanship. Criticized by an outstanding salesmanship teacher, taught in mimeographed form by several secondary schools, and revised in the light of practical criticisms. References in the field of psychology have been checked by na- tionally known psychologists. The mechanical features of the book will satisfy the most ex- acting. A GREGG BOOK IS A GOOD BOOK 1 Our Business Life 2 Salesmanship for Everybody 3 An Introduction to Transcription 4 Economics — Principles and Problems AN INTRODUCTION TO TRANSCRIP- TION, by Elizabeth S. Adams, The Gregg Publishing Company; and Eleanor Skimin, Northern High School, Detroit, Michigan. This book is a gratifying answer to a long- felt need for constructive material for build- ing usable transcribing ability. For use at whatever point the teacher usually takes up transcription. Provides work each day to sup- plement the regular shorthand program over a period of about one semester. The short units of beautiful shorthand plates are pre- ceded by clear instructions to the student. In the beginning, attention is called to English pitfalls, but gradually the student is thrown on his ow n resources in making the transcript. Spiral binding makes the book its own copy- holder. ECONOMICS— PRINCIPLES AND PROB- LEMS, by Dr. Rudolf K. Michels, Hunter College, New York City. A timely text which lays a foundation of fundamentals in a time- ly sub|ect. Every phase of economics, a vitally important subject to our citizens today, is handled in a masterful way. The chapters on Characteristics of Our Present Economic Society and Reform Proposals and the New- Deal bring a most important phase of our economic evolution right up to date. In no course is a late and authoritative text-book more desirable than in economics.

The events which constituted Yesterday have become the memories of Tomorrow. Freshman customs, the Pajama Pa- rade, college cheers, big games, so- cial activities — all are but memories. May — Senior Ball — Senior Banquet — Ivy Day — Class Night — Com- mencement — all symbolize the clos- ing of four memorable years Grads and under-grads look forward to the time when Youth is king. Age pays tribute to that youth by recalling fond memories and returning to the Alma Mater. If the 1936 Obiter has enabled you to turn back the pages of time and be transferred to the past and the pleasant scenes of your college days; if it is potent enough to ele- vate you to the realm of recall; if it can stir up within you that ir- resistible emotional feeling of things once cherished; then it has been successful in giving to the Blooms- burg students of 1936 an accurate detailed account of student life.
