As the Class of 1932 spreads itself through the many communities which it has been preparing to serve, it car- ries with it the same purpose of fidelity, service and fellowship, which has char- acterized the work of its people in this college. D ' Artagnan, the young Gascon, crossed his sword with the Three In- separables in a sacred pledge many years ago. Today we may still do honor to that motto of Porthos, Athos, Aramis, and D ' Artagnan, and live as they lived in the full significance of Tous pour un et un pour tous.

During the six years he has been here, Mr. Fenstemaker has put his department on a sound basis and has advanced the field of modern languages to its present high status at the college. It has been said that in the short time he has been a member of the faculty here, Mr. Fenstemaker has taught a majority of the courses in the curriculum. This ver- satility has brought him into close con- tact with the student body, and his good- natured humor and co-operation with all student enterprises have made him many friends on the campus. In the story of this book, D ' Artagnan and his comrades symbolize the spirit of fellowship. Four men stood together — all for one and one for all. In the same spirit of frateruite we offer this volume to one who has been a true comrade and friend. SCENES . . : v - 1.,. THE COLLEGE ADMINISTRATION DR. FRANCIS B. HAAS ' T R. FRANCIS B. HAAS became president of the Bloomsburg State 9 Teachers College in the summer of 1927. Since that time rapid progress has been made at the college under his supervision, not only in improving the physical plant, but also in developing a fine profes- sional spirit on the part of both faculty and students. To anyone who has been at Bloomsburg this progress is its own testimony to his work. Not only is Dr. Haas the esteemed president of the college at Blooms- burg, but he is also recognized throughout the state as a leader in educa- tion. Prior to his acceptance of the presidency at Bloomsburg, he was State Superintendent of Public Instruction, and he is at present the head of the Pennsylvania State Educational Association, as well as the chair- man of the committee for formulating the ten-year education program in the state. Everywhere he is recognized as a broad-minded, far-seeing educator. Dr. Haas has given his fullest co-operation in the publication of the 1932 Obiter. The staff takes this opportunity to thank him for his friendly advice and sympathy with our various demands. The Class of 1952 wish to express appreciation to Dr. Haas for his friendship and co-operation in carrying out class projects. We are happy to have been students at Bloomsburg during his administration, and we will try to make the high professional and social standards which he has helped us to reach here the guiding principles of our lives. Tucnty-two Degrees and Positions Graduate, School of Pedagogy, Philadelphia; Temple University, B.S.; University of Pennsylvania, M.A.; Temple University, Ph.D. Director, Administration Bureau, Department of Public Instruction, Harrisburg, Penn- sylvania; Deputy State Superintendent of Public Instruction; State Superintendent of Public Instruction; President of Bloomsburg State Teachers College; President of the Pennsylvania State Education Association. Message Congratulations to the class of 1932. I express the full confidence of our trustees and our faculty that you will carry on the traditions that are Bloomsburg. Sincerely yours. v: t C ? t Tu cnty-fbree WILLIAM B. SUTLIFF Dean of Instruction f EAN SUTLIFF is a native of Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. I J Having exhausted the patience of a series of teachers in the one- room school near his home at Town Line, he was considered ready fur high school work. Huntington Mills had a well-organized academy at that time with the unique distinction of having a graduate of Harvard at its head. Here he discovered the existence of such extraordinary things as Latin, Algebra, and Plane Geometry, and noted that English Literature could become a task. After several years of this diversion someone suggested a trial of County Superintendent ' s Examinations. The next thing he knew he was teaching a one-room country school. This was such a pleasant experience that a serious purpose of trying to find how to make teaching more valu- able to the children landed him in the Bloomsburg State Normal School. From there to Lafayette was a natural step. Graduating at Lafayette in 1898, doing graduate work at the University of Pennsylvania and Columbia Universit}% and receiving his master degree at Lafayette were events worth noting. Mr. Sutliff spent many years as an instructor in mathematics at Blooms- burg. During the administration of Dr. Charles Fisher he became Dean of Instruction. This was in 1922. When the Normal School became Bloomsburg State Teachers College the enlarged work of the Dean ' s office continued to be his work. Dean Sutliff has served as teacher and dean during the administration of Dr. J. P. Welsh, Dr. D. J. Waller, Dr. Charles Fisher, Dr. G. C. L. Riemer, and is now serving under Dr. Francis B. Haas. As an active member of the Kiwanis Club of Bloomsburg and an honorary member of the Bloomsburg State Teachers College chapter of Kappa Delta Pi, Dean Sutliff has made himself many friends in the town of Bloomsburg and on the campus. Tuciily-foiir Dear Class op 1932: The dean will surely miss the class of ' 32. Just about the time we get a flock of one point five and two point students all nicely catalogued, away they go. For four years we have been getting ready to graduate a class in honor of George Washington ' s Bi-Ccn- tennial. Well, here they are, George. Some of them had to be prepared in two years, but we feel that they are all worthy of the benevolent smile of our first President. While none of you can be first in the hearts of all your countrymen, we trust that as a leader of youth each one of you may be first in the hearts of those whom you teach, be ever loyal to the community you serve, and true to the highest ideals of the profession of teaching. W. B. SuTLir F, Diciii of lustruclioii. Twenly-fiie MARGUERITE W. KEHR, Ph.D. Dean oF Women To THE Class of 1932: Commencement is a time for looking back and this book will mean much to you be- cause it will help you remember. Work and play, activities serious and frivolous, friend- ships, discoveries about oneself and the world we live in, struggles and victories, plans and hopes for the future, a goodly proportion of fun, with enough darkness to heighten by contrast the brightness — these make up the kaleidoscopic pattern of college life. Commencement, as its name implies, is also a time for looking forward. We who have followed your progress through college shall miss your presence here and we hope that you will return often as alumni. As you go forth to measure yourselves against the demands of life we wish you that real success which satisfies the heart. = Tuenly-six JOHN C. KOCH Dean of Men I am happy to have the opportunity to extend congratulations and best good wishes to the members of the graduating class of 1932. They have succeeded in making a fine impression in the life of Bloomsburg and, unquestionably, that impression will be con- tinued and maintained in the various communities with which the 1932 graduates will be associated in the future. In conclusion, I would like to pay especial tribute to the editorial staff of the 1932 Obiter for the earnest and conscientious work which characterized the production of this fine year book.

Jaeein Sarah Lentz William Thompson - President Vice President - Secretary Treasurer ' I HE Community Government Association, consisting of all members of the stvident body and faculty, was organized during the second semester of 1927. Realizing that in order to have true harmony in an in- stitution of professional education such as this, there must be unity of administration as well as definite co-operation, a group of representative parties gathered and drew up a constitution of community government. That principle of government, which Lincoln has so deftly described as government of the people, by the people, and for the people, has reached a stage of development in this last year that has inspired the con- fidence of the entire student body. A well-established principle loses little ground through change of management, thus we feel that the principle of community government may live and develop in the forthcoming years. Thirfy-six Student Council THE Student Council administers all affairs of the Student Government Association which is composed of all students and faculty members of the college. It makes suggestions to the administration and formu- lates policies in regard to all matters relative to student activities. During the past year the Council and Association did very commend- able work in making Homecoming Day and Alumni Day such decided successes. Other features of the past year ' s work are evidenced in the policy drawn up for awarding honors for extra-curricular participation, and in the new rules and regulations for freshman customs. The members of the council are elected by the classes, the day students and the boarding students. It is required that all students elected to this body have better than an average rating. In addition to the student rep- resentatives, the Dean of Instruction, the Dean of Women, the Dean of Men, and the Director of Teacher Training are automatically members of the council, which in all consists of twenty-two men and women. The Student Government Association through its Student Council thus has a voice in all matters of student concern and welfare. Sl.iii.liiiK. I..-ri I.. UiKlit— MdiTis Ili ' IIiivcn. Prfif.

The Deans of Women are members ex-ofScio. The Board makes and enforces regulations pertaining to all conditions in Waller Hall. In addition to its executive and judicial work it functions through these committees: 1. The Finance Committee under the direction of Helen Smith collects and disburses the funds, and makes out and keeps the budget for the year. 2. The Fire Drill Committee with Lois DeMott as chairman of the Fire Commission- ers regulates and supervises fire drills in the dormitory. 3. The House Committee, headed by Ruth Lewis, regulates and reports conditions of the halls, press-rooms and lavatories. 4. The Social Committee, with Gertrude Oswald as its chairman, plans tor social events vital to the life in the dormitory. 5. The Freshman Advisors ' Committee composed of six members, with Mary Mc- Cawley as chairman, provides for the welfare of the new girls when they enter college. 6. The Customs Committee, with Dorothy J. Jones as present chairman, interprets and regulates customs for Freshmen. Thirty-eight Men s Student Government Association Executive Council PHE Executive Council of the Men ' s Student Government Association - ■ makes and enforces rules relative to Freshman customs and makes sug- gestions to the body of the association. This judicial body takes care of all violations of rules and has much to do with the general care of fresh- men and their conduct. Election to this body is through popular vote. The various members represent the will of each class, boarding section, and floor in the dormi- tory, as well as the day student group. With the capable assistance of Professor John C. Koch, the organiza- tion has become a power in the school and has developed a closer relation- ship to good advantage among the men of the school. Stauiling, Left li Uiglit — Prof. Koch.

Johns - Vice President Sarah C. Zimmerman Secretary John C. Adamson - Treasurer Prof. E. H. Nelson Adihor A FTER a few years of associations that liave meant much to us, many prescribed classes in methods and subject matter, a Httle experience in the practical side of teaching, and a growing sense of the real impor- tance of education, we have come to the end of our last year at Blooms- burg. For some of us it has been a long grind; others have the desire to again experience the pursuit for knowledge and cultural education in this institution, but we prepare to leave with a deep feeling of responsibility — a responsibility born of a realization of the work that is now ours as we go out to pass on to others that which has been given to us. As rather inexperienced and entirely unsophisticated freshmen we en- tered Bloomsburg, each as an individual. After a time we became asso- ciated through common interests. Various social events had a great deal of influence on our cultural growth. Probably we shall never forget the Freshman Kid Party and the class dances which began with the Freshman Hop and ran with amazing speed up through the Sophomore Cotillon, the Junior Prom, and finally, the Senior Ball. For y-tu ' o Saul Gutter President James J. Johns Vice PrciiJent Sara Zimmerman Secretary John C. Adamson Treasurer And now we come to the stage for which we have been preparing. We feel that within our class are members who will make real contributions to the field of education. Those who have served as our class officers have earned the respect and gratitude of us all; their work as leaders here has shown their fitness for leadership in the line of work which they have chosen. As we withdraw from the ranks of the students to become members of an ever-increasing and faithful alumni, we wish to express our true appreciation of the friendly counsel, co-operation, and effort of the faculty, and to thank particularly Mr. Nelson, who has worked with us this year as our faculty advisor.

Junior Class THERE is no doubt that the Junior Class is one of the most active or- ganizations of the college. Since the beginning of our collegiate career in 1929 our history has been a happy and successful one. Although we were a little bewildered by the maze of new methods and customs which confronted us in our Freshman year, under the capable leadership of Miss Patterson, we soon recovered our balance and became active in school life. Last year, under Doctor North ' s direction, we spon- sored a Sophomore Cotillon that will be remembered in years to come. Charlls F.

The membership of all of the musical organizations on the campus include many Juniors and, in addition, our scholastic rating has been such that many have been made members of honorary fraternities. Instead of producing the habitual Junior Drama we departed from tradition to concentrate on the most glorious Junior Prom ever sponsored. Not a little of our achievement has been the result of the level-headed wisdom of our advisor, Mr. Fenste- maker. With much anticipation and some regret we await the last and, we hope, most successful lap of our collegiate journey.

Yjcc President Thelma Knauss ---------- Secretary Joseph Gribbon ---------- Treasurer TN September, 1930, a crowd of green freshmen, with the characteristic - - bewildered expressions on their faces, began their college careers in this institution. After sufficient time for becoming acquainted was al- lowed, the officers and advisor were elected, and the class began function- ing as an organization. 1 .▼ -- !► ' Alfred Vandling President Mark Plifflr Vice President One Hundred four f f ors f r (f HiH-k Enw. l..

The most oustanding event of that first year, aside from the hilarious Kid Party, was the Freshman Hop. It was one of the best attended dances of the year and everywhere it was acclaimed a huge success. In September, 1931, the class returned to school, but this time as a divided body — some as two-year seniors, others as sophomores. The sopho- mores organized early in the year. The big affair for them this year was the Sophomore Cotillion which was carried out as a Valentine Dance. This event was an even greater success than the Freshman Hop.

One Hunitriil FJ ht FRESHMEN Freshman Class OFFICERS John Beck ----------- Presidciif John McHugh --------- Vice President John McGrew ---------- Secretary Charlotte Hochberg --------- Treasurer The Freshman class, as green and benighted as is usually expected, was gathered together from every direction in September. This large, self-assured group looked very promising. The first class project was launched in October, when the Kid Party was staged in the - 1 ' j . gymnasium. There, in the ab- MjH B sence of the critical eyes of up- perclassmen, the Freshmen were themselves — just little kids, eat- ng lollypops and playing Lon- don Bridge. John Beck John McHugh When the class meeting was pmuhut vuc Pn-uJcnt One Hmuht ' ii Ten held, the officers were selected to control the destinies of the group. Scarcely had the verdant newcomers become acclimated when the ordeal of initiation into college life began — customs. This test of sports- manship continued until Christmas because of the tragic outcome of the Freshman-Sophomore football contest. The Freshman Fiop was a huge success. That never-to-be-forgotten event was managed very capably by the baby class. The Freshmen are represented in all the outstanding organizations of the college: musical, dramatic, literary and athletic. It is not only in these fields that the first year students are making outstanding progress, but many of them have attained high scholastic rating. The past year has been one of great pleasure to the Freshman class, which eagerly looks forward to the responsibilities and joys that future years are sure to hold.

BOOTH N 1926 Mr. Booth came here to assume the position of mentor of college athletics. In a comparatively short time he brought Bloomsburg to the fore among the teachers colleges, and in 1928 he placed a cage team on the floor that swept everything before it to climb to the mythical teachers college championship. This was not enough. In 1931 a determined squad of smooth-working, fast-passing floor men again carried off the honors and re-ascended to the championship. Many powerful athletic aggregations have contributed to the fame of Bloomsburg in the past six years under the skillful guidance of Coach Booth, but their success has not been in basketball alone. Football, baseball, track, and cross-country teams have made considerable history for Bloomsburg. One Hundred Fifhcn Top lln I.rfl f,. Kl.L;lir SIiivli. i;rr.-n, Kir.-|M-ll. Unrkl.

Football THE 1931 football team sailed through a difticult schedule this fall and chalked up a record of which we all may be proud. Throughout the entire season a fighting spirit characterized the play of the team even in the face of the most difficult odds. With the call for candidates, a squad of forty-four men turned out for the team. Coach Booth, ably assisted by Mr. Edward Shedd, put the men through a rigorous pre-season conditioning to have them ready for the long grind before them. Eleven Icttermen from the squad of the preceding year were the nucleus of the team. However, several new men evidenced such spirit and ability that they were able to climb to varsity ranks. Captain Warman led his teammates into the first game of the season with Kutztown, October 3rd, and the Maroon and Gold came through with a 32-6 victory. Kutztown ' s early touchdown on a long pass roused the real fighting spirit of the Bloomsburg machine, and a flurry of touchdowns on a series of off-tackle thrusts and cross- bucks, literally swept the Kutztown defenders off their feet. Oitc Hundred Sixteen Jack Long Halfback ' Nick Rudau ' ski Fullback Frank Purch GitavJ On the following Saturday, Bloonisburg invaded Millcrsvillc territory with the de- termination to chalk up another victory. Millersville, however, put up a strong fight and after the visitors scored in the second period and converted the try-for into a point, counteracted on a long pass, tying the score 7-7. For the remainder of the game, two determined teams fought it out to a stand-still, neither side being driven into danger- ous territory. Mansfield, remembering a sorrowful occasion two years before, when the Maroon and Gold broke up an otherwise successful Homecoming Day, was prepared to do or die. Nothing daunted, the Blooms- burg aggregation carried off the honors with a 12-0 vic- tory. Good interference and field generalship, supple- mented by superior driving power, were the big factors of the Bloomsburg offense. An aggressive club of boys from California S. T. C. arrived a week later to do battle with Bloomsburg on Mt. Olympus. Maroon and Gold fans were a bit dubious about the results of the game. The West-Staters had a well- earned reputation as a fighting, charging team, and a num- ber of Bloomsburg boys were not expected to appear in the line-up because of injuries sustained in the preceding game. Twenty-two husky boys ran out before a throng of loyal Bloomsburgites to begin a long drawn-out contest. When Omc Huttdrcd Scicir ctti Bud Morgan Fullback ' DiNNv Thomas Halfback Jack Hall Center the smoke of battle had cleared and the teams had left the field, fans suddenly awoke to the realization that two powerful driving teams had fought each other to a scoreless tie. The state champions from Lock Haven administered Bloomsburg ' s first defeat of the season. After scoring two touchdowns in the first half on powerful off-tackle thrusts, Wepsic, of Lock Haven, almost walked through the line, but Rudawski, hefty fullback and star ball-tosser, having recovered from a broken leg, was back in the line-up, and Bloomsburg opened up with a shower of passes. Jaftin, picking his way among Lock Haven ' s backfield defense, grabbed a ball out of the air and squirmed over the line for the only Maroon and Gold score of the game. The second defeat of Bloomsburg was at the hands of the ,, strong Shippensburg eleven. The game, played at Shippens- % burg, was characterized by the spirit of an inexperienced H ! group of boys who would not admit defeat. Six regular var- sity men did not appear in the line-up at all because of in- juries, and substitutions were frequent. Practically every man on the squad, with the exception of those already men- tioned, saw action in this game. The day belonged to Ship- pensburg almost entirely. The final whistle closed the unequal struggle with a score of 30-0. The fact that the Maroon and Gold colors had been hauled down by Shippensburg the Saturday preceding served as an incentive to defeat Stroudsburg. The game was scheduled One HiinJrctI Eigblccn Maxk. Wakman Quarterback IjoAm SopciiAK Halfback Tony Kanjorski Tackle for Homecoming Day, and what day could better serve Bloomsburg in recovering her dignity and reputation. Stroudsburg, having defeated Shippensburg, was favored to win, but fans reckoned without the pride of a Bloomsburg team who were to play before hun- dreds of alumni. Rudawski carried the pigskin over for a touchdown and made the extra point by placement in the early part of the game. Stroudsburg retaliated and tied the score in the same period on a series of passes and line thrusts. Thomas, Bloomsburg ' s speedy halfback, skirted ends and picked holes to no avail. A charging line strove mightily to find room for a shifty backfield man, but to no avail. The score remained tied to the close of the game. Captain Warman, our quarterback, is to be congratu- lated for the fine work of his team. Bloomsburg spirit never failed during the entire season. Though eight lettermen will be lost to the team next year through graduation, namely: Rudawski, Thomas, Warman, Hall, Kanjorski, Sopchak, Perch, and Morgan, a fine team is expected to be built around the material remaining from this year ' s varsity. Those lettermen of this year ' s team who will be back next year are: Captain-elect Yozviak, Byers, Kreitzer, Wozney, Jaffin, Turse, Pattison, Kitch, Cox, Jones, Kafchinski, Kelly, Young, and Drennan. 0)ic Hundred Nineteen f taTiiJiiig.

Basketball NE ' ER in the history of Bloomsburg has a Maroon and Gold cage team displayed a finer fighting spirit than that which characterized the basketball season this year. Nick Rudawski, who has been acting as captain, proved himself an excellent guard and forward, having played these two positions interchangeably throughout the season. Walt Yarctski, flashy forward, and Leo Yozviak, an excellent guard, exhibited a determi- nation and staying power that did much for the success of the team. Kafchinski, the lanky boy from Scranton, showed real form in the center position. e look forward to excep- tional results from Cobby next year when a season ' s experience, coupled with his speed and head-work, will make him the mainstay of a well-balanced team. Washeleski, Carr, Jaffin and Reed complete the squad which Coach Booth says is the grittiest club that he has ever had the pleasure of coaching. The fact that the team has very little varsity material from last year is a definite handicap to any team. Con- Oiic Hundred Tuenty ( 11 ' Hank ' ( ' ar. l. n GniirJ ' Nick Rudawski Guinii sidering this disadvantage vinder which the boys were working, we can honestly say that they made a fine record for themselves and their Alma Mater.

The exciting ten-inning game with Wyom- ing Seminary, our old rivals, was a hard fought one, but Captain Kirker ' s fast nine won by one run. At Shippensburg they again displayed some fine playing, this time winning by the score of 12-7. The fine pitching of Lewis Creveling, backed up by the heavy slugging of Nick Rudawski, Joe Yockabonis, Tam Kirker, and Frankie Colder, helped to make 1931 a successful season. After winning the first two games of the year, the team had a losing streak of three games. However, they were not to be discouraged for they won the last two games from Mansfield and East Stroudsburg by repeating the tactics used in the beginning of the season. Bloomsburg had some exceptionally fine ball players in Kirker, Yock, Creveling, Rudawski, and Slominski. With the return of a large num- ber of last year ' s players Bloomsburg should have a very successful season again in 1932. One HutiJrcil Tuciity-two 1 r B. S. T. C. B. S. T. C. B. S. T. C. B. S. T.

Koch, who has many times proved his mastery of the game, the quintette carried off the honors in every scheduled engage- ment. Although fair play and true sportsmanship charac- terized their play during the entire season, the boys lost no opportunity to take advantage of weaknesses of the oppos- ing players.

Track FOR the last few years track has been more or less a neglected sport at Bloomsburg. Only once each year have the Bloomsburg men defended their colors in track and field competition against other teachers colleges of the state. Indications are that there are better things to come. Great interest was aroused in our college last year when only four men entered the state meet at West Chester and took fourth place while competing against much larger teams from the other teachers coll eges. These four men, Allen Parr, Nicholas Rudawski, George Rinker and Edward Baum, took three first places and one second in the weight and distance events. The present team is coached by Edward Shedd. We are looking forward with great expectations to a fine show- ing at both the West Chester meet and the Shippensburg Relay Carnival of ' 32. With a growing interest in track and field events in our college and a great number of meets scheduled for teachers colleges, track will rise to a level of importance equal to that of other sports. One HuiulnJ Tuoity-fne Pctrilla, Sell, Eiiiktr. I ' iiir. ■J ' ru. . K, Cross-Country CROSS-COUNTRY, an almost entirely neglected sport at Bloomsburg, made a fine showing in 1931. Because of this success, a larger number of men came out for the sport in 193 2. At different times during the year there were as many as fifteen fleet- footed men pursuing the hilly trail. Rigorous training and keen competition cut the squad to seven members, namely: Allen Parr, Clair Troy, Stephen Petrilla, James Karns, George Rinker, Francis Sell, and Jack Early. On October 2 5 our squad met California on our home track and defeated them by the score of 34-21. The team also won over Shippensburg by the score of 40-15. With a growing interest in this sport and the establishing of a definite schedule of meets the teachers ' colleges will look forward to the cross-country season with increas- ing enthusiasm.

The prime requisite of a B Club girl is sportsmanship. Both numerals and letters are awarded to the girls according to the number of points they have acquired. A girl owning a letter must have earned two hundred points in team sports such as basketball, hockey, volleyball, and baseball; two hundred points in minor sports such as hiking, tennis, and swimming; and two hundred points in either or both. Aside from this she must have an A in both sportsmanship and posture. An additional three hundred points entitles a girl to a chevron. This year the club spent a week-end at a cottage along Fishing Creek. Miss McCammon and Miss Murray, sponsors of the club, chaperoned the troupe. 0 c HiiiitttcJ Thirty PERSONNEL Priscilla Acker Thalia Barba Melba Beck M.iry Betterly Mildred Busch Lorna Gillow Beatrice Girton Dorothy Gorry Dorothy Hileman Dorothy J.

From the beginning and throughout the entire tournament the games were very well played and were marked by good sportsmanship, clear thinking, and hard work. There were eleven regular teams entered in the tournament. Due to the epidemic, Frosh substitutes were found to be very valuable. The following, among many others, deserve credit for their outstanding playing dur- ing the season: Marion Hinklc Ann Wagner Blanche Kostenbauder Almeda Derby Mildred Busch Helen J. Smith Hazel Keefer Mary Vollrath Genevieve Morgis Eleanor Materewicz VoUrath ' s team, having not lost a game for the season, won the championship, Each team deserves credit for helping to make the tournament a success. 0«t ' llundrcd T jirfy-oiie p fi Freshman Girls Basketball A T the beginning of the basketball season one hundred and twenty- five girls reported for practice, which was held from three to five-thirty o ' clock on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. The ma- jority of these girls were experienced players, but about one-third of them had never handled a basketball before. The players were divided into A and B groups, according to their former experience in playing the game. Miss Murray coached both of these groups and, aided by the fine enthusiasm and co-operation of the girls, developed some real basket- ball players. This was especially true of the B group. Girls, who at the beginning of the season had no conception of basketball tech- nique, were, at the end of the first semester, playing basketball that called forth the envy of many A players. At these practice periods, during the first semester, teams were formed and managers and captains were elected. The teams prac- ticed together, and with the help of Miss Murray, developed team plays to be used in the tournament. The tournament was organized and ready to start the first week of the second semester. There were eight A teams and five B teams. Each team played every other team in its class. The games were marked by the strong competitive spirit and the excellent sports- manship of the girls. Some of them gained valuable experience by refereeing and umpiring. However, upperclass girls generally acted as officials in the tournament. i One Humlrcd Thirly-two US ' MUSIC AND DRAMA R esume AV ITH the rapid development of the extra-curricular system has come a corresponding interest and activity in the drama and music. Six years ago, when the national chapter of the Alpha Psi Omega installed the Alpha Omi- cron cast at Bloomsburg, it gave the college a definite foundation upon which to build dramatic activity. This fraternity has progressed in many ways, but its most re- cent achievement has been the successful installation of a high school one-act play tournament as an annual event in the college season program. A concrete example of the progress of dramatic work, itself, is the raising of the standard of plays produced. Sir James Barrie ' s Dear Brutus, and Beggar on Horseback, by those well known playwrights, Connelly and Kaufman were the outstanding productions of the year. Development in musical activity has paralleled that in drama. The Maroon and Gold Band has become a large, active organization in this past year and proved their abil- ity to furnish high class entertainment in their first annual concert. The symphony orchestra has made rapid strides along the same line. The Men ' s Glee Club has become even more popular on the campus, and the Girls ' Chorus im- proved the quality of its work to such an extent that it was found difficult to keep its membership to normal size. Om- HniidreJ Thirty-thr. The Bloomsburg Players OFFICERS Leo Yozviak -------- President (Vice President to be elected) Grace Foote -------- Secretary William James - -.- - - - - - Treasurer ' I ' HE Bloomsburg Players, now one of the most prominent organiza- tions in the college, was organized in 1924. Since that time the club has been a laboratory for those desiring training in dramatic productions. It is open to students who are interested in educational dramatics as a form of activity. At the meetings each Tuesday evening, a one-act play, staged and directed by members of the club under the direction of the Director of Dramatics, Miss Alice Johnston, is presented. Criticism is offered at the close of the play and the technique of the action and staging is construc- tively discussed. Many of these plays are later given public appearance. Each year the club presents for the public at least one long play, as well as a play tournament of three one-act plays. Members of the club, after meeting all national and local require- ments, may be admitted to the Alpha Omicron Chapter of the National Dramatic Honor Fraternity, Alpha Psi Omega.

The play was one of the most comic comedies ever presented at Bloomsburg, and is considered one of the best productions ever given by a group of students so naively im- mature as juniors are supposed to be. The comedy is one of modern life. The Hardys have numerous squabbles both inside and outside the family, and they do plenty of skidding before circumstances bring their difficulties to a live-happily-ever-after conclusion. Judge Hardy is up for re-election. Dirty politics is being played against him, and his defeat is almost certain, until his daughter, Marion, herself a born politician, elec- tioneers for him. Marion wins for herself the undying admiration of Oscar Stubbins, a politician on her father ' s side. At Stubbins ' proposal Marion runs for the state legisla- ture, and thus brings down upon her head the indignation of Wayne Trent, her fiance, who believes that woman ' s place is in the home. There is a secondary plot in the affairs of Myra and Estelle, Marion ' s two married sis- ters, who leave their husbands and come home; one because her husband is always after pleasure, the other because her husband always sticks at home. To complicate the situa- tion, Mrs. Hardy, indignant because Estelle and Myra have come home packs her bag and leaves. In the end, of course, everybody is reconciled, and things end happily for everyone. The awakening seems to have done all persons concerned some good, including Aunt Milly, who decides to bob her hair and get a job in Chicago, and Andy, whose carefree adolescent attitude turns into one of pompous adult importance. The play was an evening of fun for both the audience and the players. Miss Johnston, who was the director of the play, deserves much of the credit for its success. One Hnitilrcd Thirty-six Dear Brutus Presented BY Alpha Psi Omega, 1931 Cast of Characters Alice Dearth ------- Minnie Howeth Lady Caroline ------- Eleanor Ciapp Mabel Purdie ------- Mary Betcerly Joanna -------- Frances Evans Lob -------- Edmund Jenkins Matey -------- Thomas Coursen Purdie ------- Rostand Kelly Mrs. Code ------- Ruth Lewis Cody -------- Daniel Thomas Margaret -------- Kathryn Fritz Dearth -...---- John Hall Dear Brutus is an unusual story revolving about the question of the second chance. The theme underlying it we find in Shakespeare ' s Julius Caesar — the fault, dear Brutus, is not in the stars but in ourselves that we are underlings. To say that a play of Sir James Barrie is whimsical is to be singularly trite, but to try to describe one in any other way is to be definitely absurd. The atmosphere, the characters, the abstract thought, the subtle meanings and the development of a unique idea through- out the play carry the amazed audience through a series of unexplainable emotions. The ending is neither climatic nor unusually surprising, but it expresses all the power of a true writer of classics. One Hutidrcd T jirty-seien High School Play Tournament ' ' T ' HE Second Annual Play Tournament, sponsored by the Alpha Psi Omega Dramatic Honor Fraternity, earned the success it deserved when five high schools competed this year and set a standard for dramatic achievement that assures the future success of this purposeful undertaking. The aim of the fraternity in developing this tourna- ment as an annual event is to stimulate interest in dramatics in the high school. That this objective has been well inter- preted was evidenced by the enthusiasm and co-operation of the participants. It is interesting to note that three of the plays presented were under the direction of alumni members of the fra- ternity, and that the winning play was directed by Ray- mond T. Hodges of the class of 1930. In addition to the inscribed silver loving cup presented to the winning cast of North Scranton Junior High School, the outstanding player in each of the other casts received a bronze medal significant of dramatic achievement. Those One HiinilnJ Thirty-eight receiving these medals were: Mary Flaherty, of Hughes- town; Mary E. Nesh, of Sunbury; Robert Lewis, of Lake Township; and Elmira Haney, of Scott Township. The plays presented were The Patriot Girl, directed by Raymond T. Hodges, North Scranton Junior High School; The Mayor and the Manicure, under the direc- tion of Richard S. A. Abbott, Sunbury High School; Wurzle-Flummery, with Robert Sutliff, Laketon High School, directing; The Dear Departed, directed by Miss Mathilda Mensch, Scott Township High School, and Good Medicine, presented under the direction of Miss Helen Jenkes, Hughestown High School. It is hoped that in succeeding years more alumni of Bloomsburg may find it possible to enter competing casts in this high school play tournament. One Hundred Thirty-n Maroon and Gold Symphony Orchestra ' I HERE is no organization on the campus that can com- pare with the Symphony Orchestra in prestige and tradition. It gives the welcoming salute to new regimes and is the last to glorify the departing ones. When formal occasions seem to demand the stateliness of an overture, or when the banquet hall is spread for the pleasure of guests, it is then that the Symphony Orchestra plays itself into the moods of the college. Composed of students who are interested in music inter- pretation, and led by the enthusiastic conductor, Professor Howard Fenstemaker, the orchestra, ' season by season, adds new honors and achievements to its name. A novelty this year has been the special dining-room orchestra organization for the purpose of entertaining guests.

Its popularity has grown steadily with the succeeding months. A plan was successfully carried out this year whereby free instruction was given to men of the college who had not as yet mastered the technique of their instruments, and in cases where the students owned no instruments, the plan provided for the purchasing of them through co-operation of the school and student. The resulting influx of students has made the organization one of the largest at B. S. T. C. The members of the band have been fortunate to have both Professors Howard Fenstemaker, of our own faculty, and Mr. Russell Llewellyn, of the Berwick High School faculty, to lead and instruct them in their musical enter- prise. The Band has functioned at more than a few athletic events, and has been highly instrumental in the reviving of school spirit at our college this year.

Under the expert direction of Miss Jessie A. Patterson, this group of fifty- singers presented a Christmas Cantata entitled, In Bethle- hem, an ideal vehicle for the fine blending of voices of this group. December nineteenth, by request of the chapel program committee, this program was again presented for the edification of the student body. At the time of going to press, the chorus was in re- hearsal for the presentation of Spring Rapture, by Har- vey B. Gaul. It was expected that Mr. Edison Harris, a former Bloomsburg man, would assist with an interesting group of songs. Mr. Harris, who is now teaching music in the Allentown schools, has a well-earned reputation as an experienced singer of real talent.

Kingsbury - - - Publicity Director T HE Men ' s Glee Club of 1931-1932 is considered by music lovers to be the best the college has produced. Because of the untiring efforts of Miss Harriet M. Moore, the club has been able to raise the calibre of its productions. The Fall Formal Concert was an outstanding success. It was composed of ensemble songs, numbers by the double quartet, selections by The Campus Crooners, and several instrumental solos. The ensemble numbers ranged from sea chanteys to operatic excerpts, and were all equally well produced. The double quartet ' s contributions were of a more humorous nature, while The Campus Crooners sang their versions of popular songs. The Spring Concert was in the nature of a two-part program; the first part consisted of club singing, double quartet numbers and trio songs, and the second part was in the form of a skit. It was a vocal comedy-farce, Cleo- patra. The solo parts were ably handled, and the choral work was very good.

Hall Editor-in-Chief Catherine Hoff Smith Business Manager The 1932 Obiter As the class of 1932 waves a last farewell to Bloomsburg, we find an- other volume of the Obiter has come forth to carry the record of a new college year and another graduating class. Graduation itself is not a finale. It is merely one step more toward that indefinite goal that we some time hope to reach. In passing there are certain things we want to remember — certain things that the years may make us forget. With this thought in mind, the staff of a number of years ago entitled the annual, Obiter Dictum — Spoken by the way. The 1932 edition is the sixteenth volume of the Obiter. The book has passed through sixteen stages of development. Each year is added a new touch — a new thought. Each publication becomes the actual ful- fillment of an editor ' s dream, and the product of a hard-working staff. One Hjindred Fifty Ideas are born, studied, selected and, in the majority of cases, discarded. Others develop and are embodied in the book. All work is toward a definite end, and that end is perfection. In the editing of this book ten people worked long and faithfully. The work, carried on under the direction of John A. Hall, editor, and Catherine Hoff Smith, business manager, demanded the co-operation of the entire staff. The members of this staff are Edmond Smith, Lois DcMott, Ivor Robbins, Alvina Picarella, Helen Smith, Oliver Krapf, Morris DeHaven and Desda John. In closing, the staff wishes to thank the many people whose help has made the publication of the 1932 Obiter possible. SLiiMliiiB.

George Brueckmann, Jr. Editor-hi-Chicf William L. James Business Ma iager Maroon and Gold THE Maroon and Gold, the student newspaper, has made vast strides toward reach- ing the goal of all newspapers — printing all the news of interest to its readers, and fearlessly facing an editorial policy for the betterment of its community ' s environ- mental conditions. The 1931-32 edition, under the gu idance of its editor-in-chief, J. George Brueck- mann, Jr., made its appearance bi-weekly, and was increased in size and number of columns. Its entire content was the product of student effort, and was supported by student sub- scription and state appropriation, carrying no advertismg. The Maroon and Gold offers the students of the college a medium for expressing journalistic ability, and acts as a training school for those who might care to act as ad- visors or sponsors of school papers and journals when they enter the teaching profession. There were many students connected with the staff of the 1931-32 edition of the Maroon and Gold, but those whose names appear on the present staff are the members who carried the paper to the close of a successful season. A large portion of the success of the paper has been due to the sympathetic and untiring efforts of Professor Samuel L. ' ilson, Chairman of the Faculty Committee on School Publications, and the hearty co-operation and support of Dr. Francis B. Haas. Otic Hundred Fif y-luo EDITORIAL STAFF Charles F.

Hall -------- President Thomas Coursen -------- Treasurer Katharine Fritz ------- Secretary Miss Alice Johnston ------- Director ' I HE Alpha Psi Omega, national honorary fraternity, was organized for the purpose of providing an honor society for colleges which are doing extensive work in dramatics. It provides among colleges of the United States and Canada a bond of fellowship and contact for those who are in- terested in play production and college theater. The fraternity is comprised of those members of the Bloomsburg Players who have done superior work in dramatics and who have qualified for membership. The significance of the fraternity is being felt more keenly this year because of the various projects carried out. Sir James Barrie ' s Dear Brutus, presented by the fraternity, was one of the best plays ever produced by the college. The news letter, which the fraternity began to publish last year, has been a means of keeping the alumni members in close contact with the fraternity and the college. The alumni association was well represented at the second annual banquet, held at the Elks ' Home on the College Homecoming Day. The members of the Bloomsburg Chapter have worked faithfully to maintain the high standards and ideals of the national organization. They have had the opportunity this year to work with two very capable direc- One HutiJreJ Fifty-six tors — Miss Marjorie Keith Stackhouse, a guest director, and Miss Alice Johnston. This year seven new members have been initiated into the fraternity, and others have quaHfied and will be initiated before the end of the term.

Kappa Delta Pi OFFICERS Frank Perch -------- PresiJciit Margaret Swartz ------ Vice President Grace Callender ----- Corresponding Secretary Lois DeMott ------ Rcconiing Secretary Ezra Harris -------- Treasurer GAMMA BETA chapter of Kappa Delta Pi, the most outstanding fra- ternity in the field of education, was installed at Bloomsburg Feb- ruary 21, 1931. Since that time the active membership has grown from twenty-five to forty, excluding those persons who dropped active mem- bership upon graduation from college. The purpose of Kappa Delta Pi is to foster high professional and scholastic standards among teachers. It upholds the highest ideals, en- courages fellowship and scholarship, and inspires teachers to excell in edu- cational work. The fundamental requirement of the national chapter for membership is that students be in the upper quartile of their college classes. A unique feature of Kappa Delta Pi is its Laureate chapter. This is composed of prominent educators elected to membership by the frater- nity. At present such personages as Dorothy Canfield Fisher, John Dewey, William Kilpatrick, and William Bagley are included. The first year of Gamma Beta chapter has been one of starting the machinery of a new organization and planning activities for the future. Especial credit is due in this respect to Dr. Fi. Harrison Russell, the local sponsor, and to Frank Perch, the president. The most outstanding event of the year was the first anniversary meet- ing, observed by the Founders ' Day celebration, February 13, 1932. Dr. A. L. Hall-Quest, who installed the chapter, was present and gave two addresses, one to the student body in the chapel, the other at the fraternity banquet in the evening. At this meeting eight new active members were initiated into the fra- ternity as well as three honorary members, who were. Dr. James N. Rule, State Superintendent of Public Instruction; Dr. J.

It originated in the Geography Club of the Illinois State Nor- mal University, Normal, Illinois, a club somewhat like our Geography Society. Other clubs situated in teachers col- leges scattered over a wide area, but with similar objectives, brought about associations which resulted in the formation of this fraternity. It is national in scope, having chapters in Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Pennsylvania, and Texas. The purpose of the fraternity is to further professional interest in geography, to strengthen student and profes- sional training, to advance the professional status of geog- raphy as a cultural and practical subject for study and investigation, and to create and administer a loan fund for furthering study in the field of geography. One Hutttired Sixty-two w The Delta Chapter of Gamma Theta Upsilon was in- stalled on the college campus October 16, 193 1. It affords an opportunity for both extra-classroom participation in geography, and for social comradeship. The chapter has accepted the responsibility for the ac- tivities of the Geographic Society, and endeavors to aid members of the society to reach a point of efficiency which will make them eligible for the fraternity.

OFFICERS Mildred Dimmick Madalene Carle Kathryn Benner Alice Rowett Prciiilciit Vice President Secretary Treasurer ' I HE work of the Y. W. C. A. during the past year has been built around two definite aims: to give each girl a desire to see the Y grow and to afford an opportunity to help in carrying out that desire. Through an unusually large membership and with the splendid help of the faculty advisors, Miss Mason and Miss Hazen, the association has been able to hold its place on our campus as the center of Christian activity. On registration day last September the Y. W. C. A. welcome com- mittee, in co-operation with the Student Government Association, aided the new students in getting settled. The Y also sponsors social activi- ties; the pre-Thanksgiving formal dance was a success in every way. The real meaning of the Y. W. C. A. has been developed through the ways in which each girl has been helped in building her moral standards and ideals. Varied programs, including interesting addresses by faculty members, discussions by the girls on everyday questions, and informal sings have made the ' weekly Wednesday meetings of great value. In conjunction with the campus Y. M. C. A. several interesting Sunday afternoon meetings and morning watch services at Christmas and Easter time, were held. In an effort to grow through contact with the other Christian organizations of the country, the Bloomsburg chapter has been represented at the annual Spring Cabinet — Training Conference at Mans- field State Teachers College and the Summer Conference at Forest Park. Thus another year has passed in the Y. W. C. A. at Bloomsburg, each year marking an advancement toward that goal — To realize full creative life through a growing knowledge of God.

A. is evidenced by the growth in membership. This year marlis the largest enrollment of the organization since first it became a part of the extra-curricular life of the college. To help raise the ideals of the men students and promote fellowship between students and faculty, the Y meets every Wednesday evening. Frequently services arc held on Sunday afternoons in conjunction with the Y. W. C. A. The Bloomsburg Y. M. C. A. is represented at every convention and conference that has to do with its district. Besides this, in order to keep in touch with other chapters of the College Young Men ' s Christian Associations, delegates are sent to many conventions throughout the state. Each semester there are several social gatherings sponsored by either the Y. M. or the Y. W. C. A.; sometimes both unite to hold parties for Hallowe ' en or Valentine ' s Day.

Diiniel The Lettermen s Club OFFICERS Nicholas Rudawski ------- President Anthony Kan.jorski ------ Vice President Clair Troy -------- Secretary John Lewis --------- Treasurer VV 7 ITH the idea in mind that the Lettermen ' s Club should be one of the most important organizations on the campus, a group of pro- gressive individuals set about reorganizing the Men ' s B Club of last year and drew up a constitution of requirements, activities and purposes that put it on a sound basis. A man automatically becomes a member of the club when he has obtained a letter according to the standard of requirements set up in the athletic policy. At the present time there are forty-four active men in the club, exclusive of alumni. One of the outstanding achievements of the organization has been the successful handling of the high school basketball tournament, the proceeds of which are used to buy sweaters for new members of the club and gold keys for the graduating seniors. Homecoming Day is a big day for practically every organization. This year, the B men were successful in adding much to the program, and were of singular help in welcoming home the Alumni.

Otif UunJiiJ Si-ii-nfy-niie The Geographic Society OFFICERS Mildred Busch ...-..- PirsiJoif Alfred Vandling ...--- Vice President Lois Lawson -------- Secretary William Edgar Artman --.... Treasurer FOR a number of years the Geographic Society has been one of the foremost extra-curricular activities on the campus. It was organized to promote interest in geographic interpretation by activities such as dis- cussions of geography observed in local communities or in travel, illus- trated talks on imaginary journeys and accounts of current events inter- preted from the geographic point of view. The society meets each Thursday afternoon during the extra-curricular period to participate in one of these activities. It has endeavored, through its programs, to foster a better knowledge of the relationship which exists between the fields of geography and other subjects, such as history, economics, sociology, civics and world problems. Field trips have had a very definite place in the program of the organi- zation. Each semester the club, as a group, has gone to several local places of geographic interest. The society has recently visited the Bloomsburg Brick Plant, the Bloomsburg Water Works, the Magee Carpet Company, the York Silk Mill and the Letterman Baking Company. These local business interests very generously furnished competent guides who most ably explained the departments and activities of the various plants. In each case the finished product was traced from the raw material through the manufacturing processes down to the commodity that was ready for market. These explanations proved very beneficial from a geographic point of view in that they made possible a co-ordination between industry and geography. It had been a tradition of the society to take its most extensive field trip during the month of May each year. Last May the club took an all- day trip to study Kitchen Creek Falls and the physiography of that region. Since the Delta Chapter of the geographic professional fraternity. Gamma Theta Upsilon was installed on our campus, the Geographic Society has become a local stepping stone to this national organization. n One Hundred Screnty-tito First Seiiicsfer Mildred Busch Alfred Vandling Lois Lawson W.

The activity program makes special use of the outdoor opportunities of our environ- ment. These outdoor activities are supplemented by reports on subjects of natural interest when the weather makes inside work necessary. Actual working with nature forms a factor in education of which nothing can take the place. The Nature Study Club cultivates a great love of all outdoors. It works, not only to provide present knowledge for all members, but to develop the power and love of observance by which knowledge may be gained later in life. Eats, hikes play an important part in this organization. Often the members spend a half day in the open observing natural phenomena and then after cooking and eating an outdoor dinner, turn to the stars as a subject for the stories that only the sponsor, Professor Hartline, can tell in his inimitable style. The Phi Lambda (Nature Study) Fraternity is an inner circle of this club. It is limited to fifteen active members and meets once a month at the home of Professor Hartline. The fraternity makes possible a more intensive study of nature than can be undertaken in the club. Over night trips to places of natural interest in Central Pennsylvania, through a coal mine, over a state forest reserve, and all day trips for nature study are some of the high lights of this organization.

Vice Prcsidciil ' iLLiAM Thompson ------- Secretary Aldwin Jones -------- Treasurer T70UNDED on true educational principles and nurtured by an efficient administration, the North Hall Student Government Association has developed into a permanent, progressive organization. The members of this organization are very thankful to the administration for the privi- leges accorded them. At the bi-monthly meetings the students have an opportunity to discuss matters relative to the progress of the association. This principle of free speech has contributed greatly to the development of the organi- zation. Socially, the association is indeed very prominent. The annual fall initiation of the Freshmen, which is sponsored by the members of the council, creates enthusiasm in the hearts of all upperclassmen. Shifting to the more informal events, we recall the smokers where the freshmen again furnished th-j entertainment with the assistance of the upper- classmen. To the members who leave we wish the best of luck and success.

Through this medium, student interest in commercial work in the high schools has been developed. The major interest of the organization is sponsoring the state com- mercial contest for high schools, offering competitive examinations in typewriting, shorthand, bookkeeping, business mathematics, and busi- ness law. At various intervals throughout the year, the members are instructed in the operatmg of the numerous inachincs in modern business by rep- resentatives of the manufacturing companies. The organization is, however, not without its social side. Among the various activities of the club are picnics, dances, and other entertain- ments of a varied nature.

Ycany Irene Giger One ilitndrcil Eighty-one ■ Debating Club UNAVOIDABLE obstacles prevented the functioning of the debates with Mansfield, Clarion and Shippensburg this year, but it is expected that the regular season of debating will be scheduled again next year. The schedule for 1931, Including dual debates with Mansfield, Clarion and Shippens- burg, was on the question: Resolved, That the tendency of the retail business to consoli- date in chain stores is detrimental to the best interests of the American public. Blooms- burg was represented by Catherine H. Smith, Thelma Knauss, Alfred Vandling, and Paul Baker on the affirmative side; and by Grace Callender, Lois DeMott and Carl Riggs on the negative side. Receiving the favorable decision of the judges on both sides of the question in the debates with Mansfield, Bloomsburg unfortunately lost to Shippensburg and Clarion. Although two of the three dual debates were lost, the debating ability of our team was not to be questioned. The work was of a high collegiate calibre. Professor Reams of the Social Studies department coached both affirmative and nega- tive teams and deserves much commendation for the excellent work of his club. Grace Callender and Lois DeMott, both members of the class of 193 2, completed their third year of college debating with the close of the 1931 season. Top Bow — Prof. Reams. Vandling. RigKS.

At the beginning of the school year it holds a picnic to introduce the officers to the freshmen and to acquaint the frcshmeft with the rules of the organization. The functioning committees arc: The social committee, which plans all social events in which the day girls participate. The house committee, which acts as a police force and reports on conditions in the day girls ' rooms. The customs committee, which makes and enforces freshman customs.

To the many organizations and classes on the campus, we express our heartiest appreciation for their definite aid in helping us to build this annual. There are many we would like to mention personally if space would permit. We are particularly grateful to Herb. W. Lyon, of the Canton Engrav- ing Company, for his expert work in helping to lay out the book; the White Studio of New York for the fine work in photography; Mr. J. A. McConnell, of the Kingsport Press, for his unique and artistic cover; to Mr. Harry J. W. Kiessling, Superintendent of the Annual Department of the Grit Publishing Company, for his friendly assistance and hearty co-opera- tion in the printing and binding of this book, and to the many printers and engravers, whose work in this book is its own example of their ability and service.

Two Hundred Nineteen L ' ENVOI THE Three Inseparables — Porthos, Athos and Aramis, with the dashing D ' Artagnan, since first they cried All for one and one for all, have represented Romance and Fellow- ship. Together they made their way against obstacles they sepa- rately feared. With a mad idealism they fought against evils others found it safer to ignore. The youth in every generation since Dumas has found in these gay young blades something to admire, to emulate, and to dream on. Even today, while a mechanistic world writhes in the throes of a great financial depression, the youth of today feels the same thrill and the same exciting desire. The Three Musketeers have subtly formed the background of our life here. In these pages, under our names and achievements, we have seen their shadows. And now as we leave, we take with us more than our technical training that makes us teachers. At Bloomsburg our characters have been permeated by the Idealism, the good Fellowship, the Steadfastness that make us men and women eager and able to fight our way against the cardinal ' s guards. In memory of what we have been and as a pledge of what we will be, we salute Porthos, Athos, Aramis and the young Gascon, D ' Artagnan. i Tiio Hundred Tucuty ■ J!f '
