Bloomsburg University - Obiter Yearbook (Bloomsburg, PA)

Text from Pages 1 - 176 of the 1941 volume:

EX LIBRIS LH1.B55 00111320 1941 PUBLf SHED BY THE SENIOR CLASS BLOOM SB ufcstATE TEACHERS COLEEG j LOOMSBUR% PENNSYLVANIA c t was in 1915 that the seniors of the Bloomsburg Normal School undertook the task of recording in their own way the various deeds and events p erformed by them during their life on Normal Hill. Under the editorship of Roy C. Kindig, of Harveysville, they published the yearbook Onward. Onward to them was an appropriate name because it signified their purpose. The Normal Community was so pleased with the yearbook that another was published in 1916. This was the first Obiter or a collection of passing remarks said by the way, derived from the Latin Dictum Obiter. Dictum was dropped and the book was entitled Obiter as we know it today. This Obiter was edited by W. Earl Tubbs, of Shickshinny, and dedicated to Dr. David J. Waller, Jr., who was then principal of the Normal School. It is interesting to pick up the Obiter of today and that of 1916 and compare them. We see the march of fashions in dress, the advances made in the art of printing, and the ever changing and broadening interests of the students. In paging through these yearbooks, there are various bits of information which might be included in the history of the Obiter since they are themselves historic in passing: In 1927, the Obiter celebrated the coming of Dr. Haas, the transforma- tion of the Normal School into a State Teachers College, and the organization of the Community Government Association. The publishing of the Obiter has been a class project ever since 1916. It is still a collection of passing remarks said by the way — remarks that, whether they be expressed in words or in a picture, will bring many evenings of fond re- membrance in years to come. As Bloomsburg State Teachers College moves along, the responsibility of recording its life falls on the shoulders of those serving as members of the Obiter Staff. In passing the twenty-fifth milestone, we of the 1941 Obiter Staff in pre- senting the twenty-fifth volume dedicate this book to the editorial and business staffs that have given of their time in years gone by.

Andruss President To THE Class of 1941: We hope that the best four years of your Hfe have been spent at Bloomsburg. Such experiences should help you to be at home in all lands and ages; to count nature a familiar acquaintance and art an intimate friend; to gain a standard for the appreciation of other men ' s work and criticism of your own; to carry the keys of the world ' s library in your pocket, and feel its resources behind you in whatever you undertake; to make hosts of friends among the men and women of your own age who are to be leaders in all walks of life; to lose yourself in generous enthusiasms and co- operate with others for common ends. This is our petition for your future as a graduate of Blooms- burg. Sincerely yours, President. 16 To THE Graduating Class of 1941: May 1 extend my heartiest congratula- tions and best wislies to a fine group of students. You are one of the best representative groups to have graduated at Bloomsburg since I have been here, .w d it has been a pleasure to know you. You leave college during extremely turbulent times, but those of us who have known you are confident that you will meet the pressures of the commg years with saneness and intelligence. I wish you the very best of luck. John C. Koch, Deal! of Mci . John C. Koch Dean of Men To THE Class oi- 1941: When next we meet, and may that be soon and often, we will be on the same side of the desk. You ' ll find that some- times things look different, looking from this side. So far you have probably little guessed the help that comes teacherward across a desk. Thank you very much for what tlie class of ' 41 has brought to me. Blktha Rich, Adiir Dean of Women. Blriha Rich 17 C. M. Iliiiiskii,., 111. X. T.

Hausknecht, Business Manager, who has the responsibility of administering the finances of the college. Quite important in making things move along smoothly at B. S. T. C. is Mr. Nevin T. Englehart, Superin- tendent of Grounds and Buildings. Among his many duties is the super- vision of repairs and maintenance and preparations for dances, entertain- ments, and special days at the college. Resicleiil Nurse and Dietitian Students with aches and pains of the physi- cal variety find a ready and willing friend in Miss Beatrice Mettler, B. S. T. C. ' s resident nurse who is always on hand at the infirmary. With two hundred and fifty-three hungry mouths to feed. Miss Violet Simpson, the dieti- tian, is kept busy directing the dining room and taking charge of the buying, preparation, and serving of all meals.

Mr. Herbert Mi-Mahan BUSINESS KDUCAIION Outstanding in the advantages of the Business Education Curric- ulum is the fact that it not only prepares students to teach, but also prepares them to step into employment in the commercial field. This is possible since training in this curriculum is a well balanced combina- tion of teaching theory and methods, and practical business knowledge and techniques. Under the direction of Mr. William C. Forney, the department trains teachers in Bookkeeping and Accounting, Business Writing, Business English, Commercial and Economic Geography, Commercial Law, Commercial Mathematics, Economics, Junior Business Training, Office Practice, Salesmanship, Shorthand, Typewriting, and Retail Sell- ing. Seniors in this curriculum attend classes one semester and do their student teaching during the other semester. Towns cooperating in teacher training in this field are Berwick, Bloomsburg, Danville, and Williamsport. 19 EDUCATION Students at B. S. T. C. .irc not trained solely in the fields they select. Through courses in orientation, guidance, psychology, philosophy, and teaching techniques, each curriculum is enriched to broaden the outlook and knowledge of the student. Such courses do not produce teachers by technical training, but rather by aiding in the formation of attitudes conducive to more enthusiastic instruction. Actual school situations are brought to the attention of the student who can then experience some of the problems of teachers. Student teaching affords opportunity for the learning of certain classroom tech- niques and procedures, and gives the student a better picture of the teaching profession. The Teacher Training Department also carries on a Placement Service in an effort to place graduates in desirable positions. .Seateil, I,eft to Ri -jit— Miss M.lv T. Ilavil. pi, .Mr. Earl X. Rlimles.

Shaw, Miss Maud Kavan.uigh, and Mr. Joseph R. Bailer continued their fine work in English instruction this year. When Miss Rich assumed the duties as Dean of Women, Miss Kavanaugh took over all her classes. Mr. H. F. Fenstemaker once more taught Latin and French. Courses in play production and speech were under the able leader- ship of Miss Alice Johnston. A bigger and better College Library is the pride and joy of Miss Pearl Mason and her most able assistant, Miss Dorothy E. Gilmore. They are certamly doing a fine piece of work in keeping the students acquainted with what is best in the literary world. SCIENCE ANi:) MATHEMATICS Because ot the close correlation between the two fields, a combina- tion of Science and Mathematics is quite popular with students at B. S. T. C. as indicated by the large number that elect this combination of majors. Physical Science, including courses in chemistry and physics, is in charge of Mr. S. I. Shortess. Dr. Kimber C. Kuster has charge of the Biological Science Depart- ment and teaches courses in Botany, Zoology, Physiology, Genetics, and Nature Study. Students in mathematics receive courses in College Algebra, Mathe- matical Analysis, History of Mathematics, Teaching Mathematics, Trig- onometry, Analytical Geometry, and Calculus. These courses are taught by Miss Ethel A. Ranson. S. I. Sliortess Ethel . . r.iiiison K. C, Kuster 22 SOCIAI. STUDIES AND GKOGRAFHY i-lt 111 Kiulil Mr. IC. A. U.-.ims, Miss Miiry Vl.iti-iii;;ht.

Naturally, both courses have a great influence on the prospective teacher. Dr. Nell Maupin, Mr. E. A. Reams and Miss Mary Whltenight are the instructors in the Social Studies Department. The instructors in the Geography Department are Dr. H. Harrison Russell, Miss Edna J. Hazen and Miss Maud Kavanaugh. Those students receiving certification in the Social Studies field will play a great part in the instruction of our future citizens. In this way Bloomsburg becomes an important cog in the machine of democracy. 23 IIKALTH KDl ' CATION Sfiited. Lett to Right— Hiss SUiry Wliiteiiiglit, Dr. E. II.

Nelson, is to provide a gener.il course in physical train- ing by giving every student an opportunity to participate in various types of competitive athletics. Dr. Nelson himself coaches baseball, and Mr. George C. Buchheit has charge of basketball, football, track, and cross country. Mr. John C. Koch lends the guiding hand in bowling and tennis, soccer being in charge of Pete Wisher who teaches in the Bloomsburg High School. Women ' s athletics, including hiking, tennis, skating, swimming, hockey, baseball, basketball, and volleyball are supervised by Miss Lucy McCammon who is ablv assisted by Miss Marv Whitenight. 24 TRAINING SCHOOL With .1 few changes, the Training School continues its education of both pupils and student teachers. It is in the Benjamin Franklin Training School that those in the Elementary Curriculum receive super- vised training in the art of teaching. The personnel of the Benjamin f-r.inklin Training School is as fol- lows: Miss May T. Hayden, Director of Kindergarten-Primary Education. Miss Edna J. Hazen, Director of Intermediate and Rural Education. Mrs. Amanda Kern Thomas, Training Teacher, Special Class. Miss Grace Woolworth, Training Teacher, Kindergarten. Miss Caroline Welch, Training Teacher, Grade 1. Miss S. Mabel Meyer, Training Teacher, Grade II. Mrs. Lucille J. Baker, Training Teacher, Grade III. Miss Edna J. Barnes, Training Teacher, Grade IV.

The Music Department includes a course in The History and Apprecia- tion of Music, and a course designed to teach the rudmients of rhythm, note-reading and performance. Throughout the course emphasis is put on the individuality of the student, and formality and standardization of in- struction are continualh- avoided. Mr-, .1- K, Mill.r Mi— Hiirri.t M. Mc.un- ART Mr. Keller attempts to show the im- portance of art principles in everyday life in his course in the History and Appreciation of Art. Special emphasis on the practicability and application of these principles is characteristic of the more advanced courses offered in the Elementary Curriculum. 26 Scliool Districts Cooperating in I earner Training 1 4(1-1941 BLOOMSBURG L.

Mr. Walter S. Itj-giel 111 Apprecialioii The Graduating Class of 1941 wishes to express its appreciation to the class advisers during our four college years. These men gave freely and willingly of their energy and time so that the Class would be guided in the right direction. Cheerfully and with unfailing patience they lent a helping hand regardless of the task and the added burden it created. Every member of the class will always remember our advisers and the important part they played in our college life. The advisers to our class served as follows: Mr. Fenstem. ' kker Mr. Rygiel Mr. Shortess - Dr. Kuster - Freshman Sophomore (Commencement Week Adviser) Junior Senior Reber Fisher, PrcsiJciif of Senior Class. 30 SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS Presidciif - Vice PrcsiJciif Secretary - Treasurer m Reber Fisher John Lavelle Mary Bretz Mary Sweigart The Class of 1941 h.is reached the end of its well-paved road to success at B. S. T. C. We all hope that during our four years of schooling we have exemplified that Spn-it of Old Bloomsburg in the examples set and in our contributions to the growth of the college. As a class, we take off our hats to our instructors who have so frequently extended a guiding and helping hand. It has been with their encouragement and guidance that we have developed an interest in education, an interest that should drive us on to many years of successful service in our chosen profession. More than ever before, education will be a determining factor in our world of tomorrow. It will be a deciding issue in the continuance or downfall of the freedom that is ours today. With this in mind. We, the Class of 1941, go forth with our heads up, determined to make this a better world because we lived. 31 AGNl-S A. ALASTICK L.

This became more apparent as a greater number of juniors undertook more responsibilities of the college. In order to make the most of their Junior year, the class elected as its president, Frank Shope; vice presi- dent. Jack Schlauch; secretary, Ruth James, and trea- surer. Earl Harris. As representatives to the student council, the class chose Walter Mohr and Idajane Shipe to fight for its rights. The year had hardly begun when the Community Government Association selected Francis Thomas as chairman of the Social Committee to supervise the dances. Much might be said about the efficient man- ner in which he fulfilled his obligations. Speaking of dances it was no coincidence that the judges selected two juniors, Zoe Whitmire and Betty Lou Kepner, as the two prettiest girls at the Masque- rade Ball on November 23. Athletics cannot be overlooked. In the fall, John Shlanta, George Donachy, and Leonard Slim Herr represented the junior class in football. In basketball Slim Herr and Frank Valente showed students how to run up scores with their well-aimed shots. Har- old Trethaway ably represented the class of 1942 in baseball. The responsibilities of the junior class extended well into the Day Association. Th e Day Men ' s organi- 66 JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY zation showed keen judgment in selecting their pow- ers that be when they chose as their president, El- wood Beaver; secretary, Marlin Varner, and treasurer, Stuart Straub. In the Day Women ' s Association, Mary Davenport, Mary Jane Sharpless, and Grace Thomas were the Juniors who carried the torch. Other organizations who benefited by the ability of the Juniors are the Science Club with Earl Harris at the head, the Language Club with Mary Jane Mor- dan as chief linguist. Among those of outstanding journalistic ability is Wilfred Conrad whose efforts as managing editor of the Maroon and Gold won for him the editorship of the Obiter for next year. To share that responsi- bility the class elected Jack Schlauch as business man- ager. Plans were well worked out for the Junior Prom which with Chet Lincoln and his band was most suc- cessful. The general chairman is Ralph McCracken who is ably assisted by William Booth, orchestra; Jack Schlauch, decorations; Walter Mohr, advertis- ing. The Business Education Club well remembers the splendid manner in which Richard Nonnemacker conducted their meetings with his usual finesse. As the college year draws to a close, the Class of 1942 can feel that they have made their presence felt throughout the College community. 67 SOI ' HOMORi: CLASS Left to Ri;;lit— Piivid J s. .l.-nii Si.ll.T.

They were determined that they would carve for them- selves a niche in the college life and make their pres- ence felt, as a group, and as individuals. From the first school bell of the fall, the Sophs were after the poor green Frosh, just to make up for the well-re- membered time the year before when they had to duck at the sight of an upperclassman or take the consequences. We are sure that the class of 1944 will long remember the stern commands of the class of 1943. The class got oif to a good start under the leader- ship of the fine officers whom they had chosen the previous spring. Serving very capably in the various offices were Boyd Buckingham, president; David Jones, vice president; Hazel Chappel, secretary, and Jean Sidler, treasurer. Anna Tugend and Larry Dos- ter represented the class in the College Council. The next chance the Sophomores had to strut their stuff was in their annual chapel program. It was introduced by an all-Sophomore band. A dancing chorus was led very capably by Don Jen- 70 SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY kins. Casey at the Bat was well portrayed by John Maksimiuk while Alex Foster read the poem. On February 22 came a great night for the Sopho- mores, the Sophomore Cotillion. It made a distinct hit. The decorations in charge of Loren Collins, were red, white, and blue — appropriate to the season. The music was delightful, being presented by Rex Rock- well, a State College band of increasing popularity and distinction. William Horvath, the general chairman, and his helpers are certainly to be complimented on a fine piece of work. Other committee chairmen who served were Elwood Wagner, Anna Tugend, Hugh Niles, and Alexander Foster. One of the fields in which the Sophomores shine is athletics. On the basketball squad are Whitey Maslowsky and Eddie Walinchus, who are known to all Bloomsburg opponents. Hugh Niles and Don- ald Jenkins are the sophomores ' representatives on the track team. On the baseball team are John Maksimiuk and Nevin Slusser. On the musical stage is Joyce Lohr, who has given many fine vocal selections in chapel. With the fine showing they have made in their two years at the college, we may expect great things of the class of 1943. 71 FRESHMAN CLASS OFFICERS Prcshlruf ------- John Thomas Vice Prciidcnt ------- Paul Rowlands S(r;i7 )i ----_._ Ralph Richards Trctniircr -------- Anne Shortess -i 72 First l!i «-.

From the moment they arrived, they were made to feel at home through the courtesy and consideration of the upperclassmen. Then came that never-to-be for- gotten day when customs began, and from that day on the frosh had difficulty trying to avoid their superiors. One could see the girls looking ever so pale without their make-up, and the boys finding it so hard to keep their dinks in place. On Stunt Day, the campus rang with the lusty voices of the frosh telling the world how green they were. Many girls received proposals — but even if accepted, the prospec- tive grooms made hurried exits. The three weeks of customs ended with a surprise party given by the up- perclassmen. The Frosh Kid Party was their first get-together at which the frosh were allowed to be themselves for a night, unmolested by upperclassmen. The cos- tumes and refreshments were all appropriate. There was an array of the younger generation representing all characters from the Quints to Huckleberry Finn. Joseph Chesney and Effie Jean Patterson were found to be the long and short of the Freshman class. 74 FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY The Freshmen made an important decision when they elected their class oflficers. John Thomas was chosen to be president; Paul Rowlands was elected vice president; Ralph Richards, secretary; Anne Shortess, treasurer. Leonard Wearne and Betty Hagenbuch were elected to represent the class on the College Council. The big social function of the year for the Fresh- man was the Hop, their dance of the year, held after the Easter vacation. This Freshman class proved itself capable of entertaining the college and making the occasion a memorable one. Much credit is due to the committees for their fine work. Leonard Wearne, general chairman; Ella Schargo handled the decora- tions; George W. Smith arranged for the band; Harold E. Miller provided refreshments; Florence Faust handled the programs, and Joe Gillespie was the chairman of the publicity committee. It is quite evident that the class of 1944 will be a credit in all respects to its Alma Mater. With the material it has to offer, the class will do its utmost to uphold the standards of the college. 75 COMMUNITY GOVERNMENT ASSOCI TION OFFICERS PrcMilciif - Vice Prc ulciil Secretary - Treasurer James Deily Bruce Miller Dorothy Savage - June Eaton , ' 1 .TAMKS IIEH.V I ' r.-si.l.-Ml PERSONNEL President.

The Student Council is the executive division of the C. G. A. Every student and organization on the campus is represented on the Council by Waller Hall, Day Women ' s Associations, North Hall, Day Men ' s Associations and class representatives. Committees appointed by the vice president carry out various duties of the college community, such as the administration of customs, the planning of chapel programs, dining room seating arrangements, and similar important details. One of the biggest jobs the Student Council has is the Freshman Reception at which each frosh is introduced to the faculty and gets acquainted with other frosh and upperclassmen. In addition to discharging these duties the Student Council, acting for the Com- munity Government Association, sponsors several dances throughout the year. The Community Government Association sent its president, James Deily, to repre- sent it at the annual convention of the National Student Federation of America, which was held at New Brunswick, New Jersey. This year the council attended the convention of the Eastern States Association of Professional Schools held annually in New York City. 79 WALLER HALL ASSOCIATION Prrshlcii - Vice PiciiJcitf Secretary - Trraxiirrr OFFICERS Virginia Hughes - Ruth James Mar.jorie Young - Aleta Stiles k ' — — . « - 1.

The Waller Governing Board is composed of a president, a vice president, a secretary, a treasurer, and three members representing each of the four classes. The vice president is responsible for the supervisors whose duty it is to help maintain order in the dormitory. In October the Waller Hall girls sponsored a Farmer-Farmerette Get-Acquainted Party. This was very successful and the girls enjoyed it immensely. In December the annual Christmas Party for the Crippled Children was held. This affair was not only enjoyed by the children in the neighboring communities but also by the faculty and college students. Something new in the history of Waller Hall was a Mothers ' Week- End. The girls entertained their mothers over Saturday and Sunday, and held open house for the fathers Sunday afternoon. The week- end was so successful that the girls hope it will be continued. In April the dormitory and day girls held the annual He-She Party which is always so much fun. It is at this party that the new officers to the Governing Board are introduced.

As usual there were several new faces. The Frosh were greener than ever, but .ifter a period of orient.nion they too assumed th.it North Hall attitude. Periods of intense scholastic, athletic, and extra-curricular ac- tivity were punctuated with rousing smokers. It is interesting to note that pipe smoking is being revived. Ping-pong, bridge, and pinochle tournaments were sponsored by the North Hall Association and aroused keen rivalry among various combinations. In the athletic arena North Hall men distinguished themselves. Evidence of this can be seen in the predominance of dorm men in club rosters and the walking advertisements of athletic abilities, the B sweaters. The boys always find time to fraternize in the lobby, to study and listen to the radio. If walls could talk, surely the lobby could re-echo some interesting opinions on world and social problems. This room is noted for its open forums. Fi-iiiik Viil.Mil. ' , .Lisi-iili A|...iiick, Villnuii Il.irViith 83 DAY WOMKNS ASSOCIAllOiN Sejilf«I. Left tn Uiuht — Mary -lane Sliarplnss. Mary I avpiiport.

Since its organization, the association has grown steadily and today it has a well-equipped day room and an or- ganization which promotes the interests of all women day students. The Official Board is the executive body of the association. There are ten members on the board — the president and vice president, who are elected by the association, and two representatives elected by each of the classes. During the first week of school, a reception and tea was held for the freshman girls in the day room. At Christmas time the Day Wo- men ' s Association secured from the Red Cross the names of four needy families. Each class took charge of one family and contributed an assortment of food, clothing, and toys. Also, at Christmas time, the day girls held an informal party at which time Santa Claus gave each day girl a gift. In the fall the day girls and Waller Hall girls decided to stage something a little different; so they arranged for a 4F party — Farm- er ' s Fall Fun Frolic. The girls dressed like farmers, square danced, and acted like good, old hill-billys. The freshman day women elected Elaine Kreisher and Ella Shargo to represent them on the Official Board during the second semester. The new members of the board were elected and the results kept secret until the annual He-She party which was jointly sponsored by the Day Women ' s Association and Waller Hall Association. irst IIiw.

During the past year they held several smokers which featured everything from hill-billy singers to heated competition in the gentle art of ping-pong. To quote one of the day men, Pinochle thrives in the day room, probably because of its intellectual stimulation — at least we learn to count to one hundred twenty. Poe had noth- ing on the day men, for wild are the tales the commuters tell of things encountered, especially on days that begin with an eight o ' clock class. First Row. I.i-ft tri Right— E.

Several meetings dealt with special poetry, such as English Poetry or Modern American Poetry. As added attractions the group was entertained by Miss Eleanor Sands, Editor of the popular poetry magazine, Unicorn, and by the Bloomsburg High School Choric Reading group under the direction of Miss Kline. The aim of the club is to promote the appreciation of poetry by affording the opportunity for its enjoyment. Its motto is To have great poets, we must have great audiences. 87 STUDKNT CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION Under the able leadership of Larry Klotz, the Student Christian Association, formed by combining the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. hist year, enjoyed a most successful season. The activities of the or- ganization are directed mainly in the channels of Christian ideals and fellowship, although social gatherings and parties play an important role in the life of the organization. Some of the highlights of the 1940- 41 year were a novel Valentine Party, a Christmas caroling service, and the annual Easter sunrise service held in the grove. Five students, Ruth Hope, Catherine Jones, William Booth, David Jones, and Larry Klotz, traveled to Buck Hill Falls to represent Blooms- burg in an inspiring conference held amidst the beauty of the Pocono Mountains. This year the association was honored when Edith Benninger, one of the S. C. A. cabinet members, was chosen by the Middle Atlantic Movement to act on the Eagles Mei ' c Conference Planning Committee. The primary purpose of this organization is for the members to unite in the desire to realize social and spiritual values in fellowship by First I! , I.i ' fl I.. Tli; I . Tlii.iuiis. l:.

A. has sponsored a Sunday afternoon meeting for the newly entered Freshmen. This year the S. C. A. fol- lowed this tradition by holding a meeting in the college auditorium. This meeting was followed by a get-acquainted tea served in the main lobby. In this way the organization did its bit to make the frosh feel like part of B. S. T. C. ' s grand big family. One of their unusual and varied programs included a speech by a Shamokin minister who demonstrated with magic the importance and need for a fuller, better living. The program was so well received within the group that it was decided to present the same speaker during a chapel program for the benefit of the entire student body. In their effort to obtain a good balance between religious activity and social life on the campus, the cabinet developed a new policy includ- ing a social evening once a month. It is in this way that the feeling of Christian-social fellowship is invigorated. Such a feeling is impor- tant in broadening the minds and spirits of students. Each Sunday afternoon, immediately following dinner, the S. C. A. continued to conduct the singing of hymns in the lobby. This year, the second since its organization, saw the Student Chris- tian Association grow with increased activity and enrollment. How- ever, the activity of the organization was not limited to the campus, for representatives were sent to several conferences so that the students might benefit from the activities of other colleges and universities throughout the region.

Andruss, addressed the club at its first meeting of the second semester. The program for the balance of the year included a mock trial, a commercial demonstra- tion by McCann ' s Business College, informal talks, and the much en- joyed spring picnic. The Business Education Club sponsored the opening of the college social season with a delightful Victory tiance. The old year was ushered out of the picture by the club ' s annual Christmas party. The Commercial Contest for high schools of Pennsylvania, which is held every year, was the club ' s biggest undertaking. With over fif- teen schools participating, this year ' s contest was one of the most suc- cessful ever held. Although the contest is sponsored by the Business Education Club, It was only through the co-operation of the entire Business Education Department, students, and the faculty that an un- dertaking of this size was possible.

Music for the opera was written by Fredrick Von Flotow, using a liberta by Wilhelm Friedrich Riese. It had its first performance in the United States on November 1, 18 52, at Niblo ' s Garden, New York. Guest soloists for the Bloomsburg performance were: Miss Roberta Antler- son, soprano; Miss Margaret Wilson, contralto; Donald Rogers, tenor, and Sandy McPherson, baritone. The Chorus thoroughly enjoyed working with these guest soloists, as each one of them was young, energetic, and very en- thusiastic about the opera itself. Three of the soloists were still conservatory students, and the other was a teacher of music. Their performance was excellent. Soloists from the College Mixed Chorus were: William Barton, Sfilted.

Other members of the chorus who sang the parts of the guest soloists during rehear- sals were: Ruth Baird, Ruth Hope, Joseph Malinchoc, and Rutter Ohi. The story of Martha centers about a lady of the court, her attendant, a cousin of the lady and several farmers. During the course of the story the ladies decide to play a joke which results in their being hired as maidservants by two farmers. The lady ' s cousin comes to their rescue and they flee, but the farmers follow with the intention of bringing them back. They catch up with the fleeing ladies, and declare their love for them but are spurned. Developments which follow show that the wealthy farmer is the son of a noble, and, as a result, the lovers are reunited and everything ends happily. The Mixed Chorus spent most of the year working on the opera, but were rewarded for their hard work by the enthusiasm with which the audience received the presentation. Just before the Thanksgiving recess, the chorus gave a very delightful Thanksgiving program in chapel. It consisted of appropriate Thanksgiving numbers. The chorus was larger this year than ever before, numbering over one hun- dred and fifty people. It should be complimented on its fine work, and or- chids are due Miss Moore for her able leadership. ■ ' r rYiim c ' js«u-i.ws!.,. la-j:.s Am miii se xBBm Si-hIm1 I.i-ft t„ l!ii;lit I.. Klol .. I.

S. T. C. ' s musical prestige. The choir returned a visit made by Kutztown last year. So well liked was the choir ' s splendid con- cert, th.it an editorial, complimenting the organi- zation, appeared in the Kutztown S. T. C. paper. In direct harmony with the National Defense Program, the choir presented a Spring Concert of American Folksongs to the college assembly. Two other appearances in chapel kept the ever popular A Cappella Choir before the student body. The choir rounded out its musical year by singing at the Baccalaureate exercises in May. Miss Har- riet M. Moore, a familiar figure in assembly pro- gr.inis, led the choir through this, another success- ful year. 94 MAROON AND GOLD BAND I ' Mrst Uciw, Left tu ltis:ht— 11. John!

The band has a personnel of fifty-eight members, with a fine balance of instru- mentation. The band took a big step forward this year by presenting Bloomsburg with one of the snappiest marching organizations e ' cr to appear on Mount Olympus. The new members, spot- lighted in their neat maroon and gold uniforms are, flag carriers, Helen Johnson and Jane Rut- ledgc; twirlers. Hazel Chappel, Arlene Swincsburg, Aldonna Maslowsky, and Kathryn Hess with Ken- neth Morse as head twirler. The band gave an outstanding concert in the gymnasium on Homecoming Day and accompanied the football team to Lock Haven and Kutztown. It also participated in the Hallowe ' en Parade and drew much favorable comment from the spectators. The band is ably conducted by Mr. H. F. Feiiste- maker. H. F. Flnstemarlk, Director 95 MAROON AND (.OLD ORCHESlkA The Maroon and Gold Orchestra has during the past year continued to play an active part in the musical life of the college. It presented a program in the college assembly on Monday, January 13, and had a prominent part in the evening program following the Rotary-Kiwanis Banquet on Thursday, March 13. Small groups from the organization have from time to time provided music for banquets in the college dining room. The orchestra provides a splendid opportunity for those who wish to participate in ensemble playing, and also provides valuable experience for those who may be called upon to take charge of such activities in high schools in which they may teach. Under the direction of Mr. Howard F. Fenstcmaker, the orchestra has rendered valuable service between the acts of many plays. Although not much publicity is given the organization, it is deserving of a great deal of gratitude and appreciation for its splendid cooperation which has added to the social life of the college.

This or- ganization is not an extra-curricular organization, even though it is composed entirely of college students. Its activity is not limited to college affairs, however, and the band has appeared in nearby towns. Featured in the band is blonde, blue-eyed Reba Henrie who takes care of the vocal end. This year the band reached a new high at the Interfraternity Party, and with all the members returning except Bill Pegg, Fritz X orman, and Collin Vernoy promises great things for next year. J6 f ' 97 THE 1941 OBITER GERALD FRITZ Editor FROM THE EDITOR: We of the editorial staff hope that this book will bring you many fond memories in years to come — memories of names and faces, perhaps friends and places that were dear to you dur- ing your stay at Bloomsburg. We hope that some day as you thumb through these pages you see something that keeps alive that Spirit of Old Bloomsburg. FROM THE BUSINESS MANAGER: Many dollars, hours of work and weeks of worrying on the part of many form a part of the 1941 Obiter. How- ever the business staff soon forgets these headaches when we look back and re- member how faithfully and willingly everyone concerned with the publica- tion gave their support. The efforts of the seniors, campus organizations, and advertisers to give the financial support needed to make this yearbook editorially successful proved to be a valuable contribution. We wish to thank all of them. May this twenty-fifth Obiter give you many hours of enjoyment and fond memories. CLARK RENNINGER Business Manager 98 Seated.

It is issued bi-monthly by a student staff, this year under the direction of Editor Victor Turini and Faculty Advisers S. L. Wilson, Miss Ethel Shaw, and Miss Pearl Mason. Any student may earn a position on the staff by entering an article in competition with all others at the beginning of the college year. The paper purposes to entertain, educate, and inform the student body concerning campus activities and student and faculty achieve- ments. All students, whether staff members or not, are u rged to sub- mit criticisms, editorials, and letters to the editor. The exchange department gives the current happenings on other campuses. This year the department exchanged publications with fifty colleges through- out the country. The Maroon and Gold is a member of the Columbia Scholastic Press and the Pennsylvania School Press Association. In cooperation with these groups, the college paper yearly strives toward higher news- paper standards. 100 HANDBOOK Annually the Handbook Committee edits a convenient, condensed volume of facts about Bloomsburg State Teachers College. This com- mittee under the sponsorship of the Community Government Associa- tion works during the spring and summer to prepare the volume for the following year. During these months, the committee collects and organizes data on all phases of college life and activities. After the data is gathered, the committee sets up a page dummy for the printer and later checks the proofs for typographical errors. The handbook, appropriately called the Freshman ' s Bible, is a means of assisting the orientation of the new students to the customs and routine of college life. Through this little volume a calendar of events, sports records, constitutions of various organizations, officers of the different organizations, and many other bits of information are made available to the students. It is a reference for all members of the college community and serves as an aid in co-ordinating the ac- tivities of college life.

In this organization students are given an opportunity to gain some valuable training in dramatics. By acting in plays, college young people gain poise and ease in appear- ing before audiences. Since this club is a workshop, members also must learn to direct and produce amateur plays. They also get experience in the handling of props and stage-sets. The Dramatic Club furnishes entertainment not only for college affairs, but also for organizations in the local service area belonging to the college. During the first semester of this year, Channing Pollock ' s The Fool, was presented under the sponsorship of the dramatic fra- ternity. This play, with its variety of stage-sets and characterizations gave the public a good sample of the kind of work done by the club members. Each spring a service pin is awarded to members who have done out- standing club work during the year. From the dramatic club, mem- bers are chosen for Alpha Psi Omega, national honorary dramatic fra- ternity. All students arc eligible for the club, members being picked by tryouts held by a tryout committee under the dnx ' Ction of Miss Johnston and Mr. Bailer.

Since then the Forum has grown and developed until now it is one of the most interesting and timely clubs on the campus. The purpose of the club is to discuss topics pertinent to the affairs of th; world and also prob- lems of purely local interest. It meets every Monday evening in the social rooms of Noetling Hall where spirited discussions take place. An attempt to understand the true world situation can be arrived at only by study and discussions of contrasts and comparisons drawn by authorities. This year ' s meetings have been particularly helpful in giving the members an enlightened view point about the many contradictory news articles on the present war in Europe. Along with the regular meetmgs, the Forum has an annual social event. This year a picnic is being planned for spring. 104 LANGUAGE CLUB Chester De Rolf Margaret Robeson Claraline Schlee Isabella Olah Mary Jane Moruan OFFICERS - Prfsiih ' nt Vice Prt ' shii-nt - Secretary Tranurcr Pr(i i(tiilll C iiirniliiil - Mary Jake Mordan John Young - Margaret Robeson Claraline Schlee Bette Griffiths A year ago, under the sponsorship of Prof. Fenscemaker, the Lan- guage Club was organized, and although it is a comparatively young organization, it has become increasingly popular. The members of the club decided that, in order to have a better understanding of the rela- tionship of English to foreign languages, they would try to gain an elementary knowledge of other languages. Therefore, under the direc- tion of Prof. Fenstemaker, the group has been studying German. Other languages will be taken up as time permits. No previous study of a foreign language is required for membership. Movies, discussions of countries and customs, singing foreign songs are enjoyed at the meetings. The club joined an international correspondence organiza- tion and has received many interesting and amusing letters. However, because of the international situation, there has been a decided lull in foreign correspondence this year. Kirsl ];„w, I.pfl tc. Kiulit— J. YmiiiK. M. Uobesoii, Prof. Howard F.

All phases of social conduct are discussed at the meetings. Eti- quette was one theme and the points for discussion were brought up by the members. Some of the topics discussed were introductions, the proper hand shake, and telephone technique. At another meeting. Dr. Kehr and Dr. North were guests and spoke to the men and women, re- spectively, on the subject of clothing and general appearance. Among the efforts to broaden one ' s social background was instruction in card playing which was gladly given by several members of the faculty. Another social activity which members enjoyed during the year was a hay ride by horse and wagon to a camp along Fishing Creek. There appetites, whetted by the ride in the fall air, were satisfied by delicious refreshments. Ghost stories were told beside a dying fire to round out the evening ' s entertainment. During the Hallowe ' en season a costume dance was held. One of the high spots of the social program was a semi-formal dinner and theatre party after which a buffet supper and dancing were enjoyed. Another feature was a skating party held at the Berwick Armory. Although the Social Usage Club is only in its second year on the campus, the group is proving its worth and the members have shown by their activities that such a group is of great benefit to the entire student body as well as to the individual. 107 SCIENCE CLUB First Uow.

The present organization is in its sixth year, and under the able leadership of Dr. Kimber C. Kuster, has become one of the most active groups on the campus. Each week it meets to discuss the latest in scientific developments and progress. The meetings are usually in the form of discussions led by the students themselves. However, to add to the scope of the topics, scientists like Bloomsburg ' s Professor Hartline are frequently called on to discuss interesting scientific facts and discoveries. Some of the workings of nature are studied first hand by taking field trips on the campus and in the nearby community. This year the club did its bit in the much talked of conservation movement by presenting a fine movie during one of the regular chapel meetings. This movie dealt chiefly with the conservation of game birds and fur-bearing animals. During one of the regular meetings Professor Hartline gave an in- teresting talk on the geology of the campus and nearby area. Dr. Kus- ter told the group about his Praying Mantis, one of the oddities of nature; the wild honey bee and his habits was also discussed. New types of cloth were also studied, one discussion being on the quality and characteristics of nylon. A very worthwhile picture on the mining and importance of aluminum was also shown to the club. Even infan- tile paralysis, How Big Docs the Moon Look? , Do People Live Long- er? , and Are People Getting Bigger All the Time? were discussed. One of the high spots on this year ' s program was a discussion of photography given by Lorcn Collins. Collins not only discussed each step in the developing of films, but demonstrated each step in the devel- oping and printing of pictures in the presence of the group. 109 CIVILIAN riLOT TRAININC; rkOC.RAM Left tn Right— TV.

C. went air minded this fall when it started to turn out full tledged licensed pilots under the Civilian Pilot Training Program sponsored by the Civil Aeronautics Authority. The purpose of the C. P. T. program is to train young men and women in the primary rudiments of flying. From this course young pilots step into advanced trainers and soon become members in the U. S. air arm. Women are included, one in each class of ten, and in time of need may be used to ferry planes from factories to airports. One in ten C. P. T. students enter military service, but already sixteen of the twenty-seven Bloomsburg men to take the course have entered the air corps or are scheduled to be examined in the near future. Harry Jenkins, former B. S. T. C. track ace, is already in the service but did not receive his primary work at Bloomsburg. First of Blooms- burg ' s C. A. A. students to enter the air corps was William Bud Herbert who is now down at Albany, Georgia, flying for Uncle Sam. Eleanor Beckley had the distinction of being the first girl to complete the course at Bloomsburg. A great deal of interest has been shown by the student body; a session of hanger-flying in the lobby, daymen ' s room, or North Hall soon attracts students who eagerly await the opportunity to enroll in the C. P. T. program when they can personally experience the thrill of the first solo, spins, cross-country flying, and the ever hoped for three-point landings. Ill SOCIAL SERVICK CLUB P ' irst How.

It is a new club on the campus this year, operating without any dues from its members. The only money it handles is money given to it by organizations of the town to carry on various projects. Each girl in the club is on her honor and she gives as much time and service as she feels she is able. She turns in the number of hours she has worked, which in most cases far exceed the number required for extra-curricular credit. The club meets once a month to plan work. It has an Executive Council, consisting of the sponsor, the president, the secretary and two or three other club members, which acts on a project before it is presented to the group. When presented, the group votes on the project. The club, through its members, has rendered service to the Child Welfare, the Girl Scouts, the Red Cross, and the Hospital. The work includes clerical work, knitting sweaters, making baby blankets, and collecting clothing for Bundles for Britain. The club ' s biggest project was the purchasing, packing, and distributing of . 8 Christmas baskets to worthy families in the community. The money for this project was fur- nished by the Elks Club and the Salvation Army. The club has received several complimentary letters in recognition of the service rendered to the various ors;anizations of the communitv. 112 INTER FRATKRNITY COUNCIL OFFICERS RuTTER Ohl (Gamma Theta Upsilon) Jack Mertz (Pi Omega Pi) Mary Bretz (Kappa Delta Pi) Howard Tomlinson (Phi Sigma Pi) PresiJci f - . .

The council is composed of four representatives from each fraternity — the president, two representatives, and the sponsor. This year the council followed last year ' s example and sponsored a social evening instead of the formal ball previously held. Each member of a fraternity was allowed one guest, and the Maroon and Gold Dance Band played to a large crowd. Cards and various games were featured throughout the evening. SeiitHd.

The purpose of this organization is to encourage effort toward high intellectual, scholastic, and social standards. At the same time it purposes to recognize outstanding contributions in the held of edu- cation. To become a candidate for membership a student must pos- sess desirable personal qualities, exhibit worthy educational icieals, M d meet high scholastic requirements. The fraternity endeavors to maintain a high degree of professional fellowship among its members and quickens professional growth by having achievement in educa- tional work. Membership is extended to Juniors and Seniors who rank in the upper quartile of their classes. This year the fraternity started something new when it sponsored the sale of Wedgewood Plates which contain a picture of Carver Hall as the symbol of the college. In connection with this move, Mr. Bailer gave an interesting sketch on the history of the Wedgewood factories in England. At the Christmas meeting the program was based on the carols; Aleta Stiles entertained the group with a brief history of some of the most familiar ones. Among the topics discussed throughout the year were Curriculum Reconstruction and Education and National De- fense which were discussed respectively by Aleta Stiles and Ruth 114 I ' ir.st la.u, Li-fl l(, lli lit W. runra.l, M.

Tlie local chapter was represented at the Regional Kappa Delta Pi Conference which was held in New York City. Those attending from Bloomsburg were Mr. Bailer, Mary Bretz, Alcta Stiles, Richard Nonne- macher, and Victor Turini. The conference dealt with the possibilities for Kappa Delta Pi to benefit the various campi on which chapters are located. Another innovation this year was the beginning of a library to include a bound copy of the History of Kappa Delta Pi and all types of worthwhile educational olumes which may be of assistance to students. Kappa Delta doesn ' t only feed the mind but goes in for re- freshments and games to round out its social side. As part of its social acti ity the society cooperated with the other fraternities on the campus in sponsoring the Inter-Fraternity Social Evening. 115 PI OMEGA PI Ruth Shay Picsitlciif Mary Bretz ptcHIA Joseph Malinchoc Sccri ' fary Vj JuM Treasurer The Alpha Delta Chapter of Pi Omega Pi, the National Professional Commercial Educational Fraternity which was founded in the spring of 192 3 at the Northeast Missouri State Teachers College at Kirksville, was installed at State Teachers College, Bloomsburg, on May 28, 193S. The Alpha Delta Chapter consists of members of the Department of Business who have superior scholastic ratings. The aims of the fraternity are to encourage, promote, extend and create interest and scholarship in commerce; to encourage and foster high ethical standards in business and professional life; and to teach the ideal of service as the basis of all worthy enterprise. The members of the fraternity co-operated with the Business Edu- cation Club in the sponsoring of the Pennsylvania Commercial contest which is held annually by the Department of Education. POP, the magazine of the fraternity, is being edited this year by Howard Tomlinson. The programs of the regular monthly meetings were interesting and took the form of discussions on the national constitution of the frater- nity, discussions on topics relative to business education, and games. 116 Ruth Shay, vice president, and acting president in the absence of Robert Borneman, gave an interesting account of her visit to Illinois during the Christmas vacation. Fourteen members were initiated this year, thus bringing the total membership to one hundred thirty-four. This year, second-semester sophomores were included in the list of new members voted upon. Fol- lowing the formal reception, the old members extended the hand of welcome at .in informal gathering. Pi Omega Pi co-operated with the Inter-Fraternity Council in spon- soring the Social Evening on March 8. Ar ' ' ' v-„ ' ' r, ' ,.

Secretary Ever since it was installed at Bloomsburg, April 26, 193 0, Iota Chapter of Phi Sigma Pi, national professional fraternity, has been one of the most active groups on the campus. Mr. E. A. Reams, the faculty adviser, has done a fine job in guiding and developing the organization. This year ' s president, Howard Tomlinson, was always on his toes, and with splendid co-operation from the group, led Phi Sig through a very successful year. This year sixteen new members were taken into the group. They were: Don Jenkins, Hugh Niles, Richard Foote, John Witkoski, Walter Mohr, Frank Valente, Boyd Buckingham, Frank Shope, Merrill Deit- rich, Elvvood Wagner, Leonard Herr, Thomas Connard, Thurwald Gommer, George Spontak, Dominic Pino, David Jones. Elwood Beaver and Mr. Reams attended the National Phi Sigma Pi Convention which was held this year at Atlantic City. Here the various representatives gave a cross-section of their activities and sug- gestions to maintain the strength of the national organization. These two representatives gave an inspiring report during the annual meeting held at Dr. North ' s home. It seems that Mrs. North makes the most delicious oyster stew in the district (quoting several Phi Sigs; Dr. North thinks so too), and the year would not be complete if she didn ' t play hostess to about thirty hungry fratmen. lis M-al,.,l, It t„ l., l,l-h A. ll,.an,s .Sponsor).

Following the movies, the group went to Phillip ' s Bar-B-Q to top off the evening. May I the group met at Rose Tea Room, Lightstreet, for its annual Founders ' Day Banquet at which it entertained several high school principals, faculty, and alumni from nearby towns. During the busi- ness meeting the following officers for next year were announced: Elwood Beaver, president; Donald Jenkins, vice president; Frank Valente, treasurer; Ralph Zimmerman, Secretary; John X ' itkoski, as- sistant secretary. 119 GAMMA rilKIA LPSILON Ruth Ohl PirsiJrnf Ruth Brandon Ida Jane Shipe V (T President iMMEBk Corresponding Secretary Earl Harris K5 Gerald Fritz Rerorilii?; Serrettiry i p Treasurer Bruce Miller, Betsy Miller Riliit ' iii ii ii ex fo 1 n irf rdh-nri Cfimn il Delta Chapter of Gamma Thcta Upsilon, National Geographic Fraternity, carried on where it left off last year and went on to another successful year on the campus. The purpose of the organization is to discuss current geographic events, and to talk over some of the prob- lems that arise in the teaching of geography. To become a member in the fraternity students must take geography as one of their fields and meet prescribed scholastic requu ' ements. Stuart Straub and Anthony X ' alente were initiated into the society this year. The fraternity is under the able leadership of Dr. Y{. H. Rus- sell who has the distinction of being the National President of Gamma Theta Upsilon. To prove his or her fitness as a candidate for membership, each pledgee is required to speak before the group on some topic related to geography. In this way they demonstrate their ability to associate geography to the happenings of the world. Throughout the year, pro- grams are in charge of the various members who present varied and interesting topics. Probably the highlight on this year ' s program was the appearance of Miss Genevieve Lachowicz at the annual Gamma Theta Upsilon Banquet. 120 Miss Lachowicz, who graduated from the Berwick High School in 1937, had traveled to Poland to study music. During her stay Hitler ' s legions moved in, and her experiences during her difficult exit from Europe were most interesting. A sister who accompanied her decided to marry a Polish student in a business school and remained in Europe. This year ' s banquet was held at Rose Tearoom in Lightstreet. Next year ' s newly elected officers are: Earl Harris, president; Ida Jane Shipe, vice president; David Shaefl ' er, treasurer; Stuart Straub, recordmg secretary; Anthony Valente, corresponding secretary. The fraternity did its bit again this year when it cooperated with the other fraternities to make the Inter-Fraternity Social Evening the success that it was. It also participated in the annual Service Area Day. rir l llnw, J.,-fl ti. ItiKht llni.i- Miller. c;,tm1.i Tritz. Kilth Iiriiri.l,.M, [:iitt.T Olil. .Miss Eiliia Hiizeil. Dr. II. 11, l!iiss,.ll.

This year was quite an eventful one. The activities commenced with a reception and tea held for the Hedgerow Players. This group of artists appeared at the college during November, and presented a fine production, Candida. The members of the faculty were invited guests and helped to make the reception a very pleasant affair. The fraternity play, The Fool, was presented by the members of Alpha Psi Omega and the Bloomsburg Players early in December. The fraternity also sponsored the annual high school play tourna- ment this year which was followed by a reception for the participants from the various high schools. Alpha Psi Omega was responsible for several one-act plays that were presented for the college and the community during the year. Throughout the year the local chapter was engaged in initiating new members, conducting regular meetings, and holding numerous parties. 122 I I,,.

Buchhelt ' s Huskies tl.ishcd tlirout;li four dual meets in 1940 to complete their fifth consecutive season without a loss in dual competition. To top off a splendid season, the Husky runners garneretl first place in the state meet at West Chester for the fourth straight year. Bloom got off to a flying start when the relay team, composed of Don Jenkins, Ken Hippensteel, George Spontak, and Harry Jenkins won the mile relay in the Pcnn A. C. Races at Philadelphia. Bucknell succumbed in the first eiual meet, and East Stroudsburg was the victim in a one-sided contest. The Huskies next journeyed to the Penn Relays at Philadelphia where they gave a good account of themselves. They grabbed second place in the College Mile Relay and third in the Teachers College Mile Relay. Individual honors went to Dan Kemple, fourth in the two mile; Harry Jenkins, fifth in his heat of the 4()()-nieter hurdles; and Dan Bonham, seventh in both discus and javelin. 126 As a fitting ending. Bloom humbled Shippensburg and Lock Haven to keep its five-year record intact. The climax of the season came when the Huskies legged their way to the fourth straight state championship at West Chester. Blooms- burg rolled up 60 ' j points, while the nearest competitor was West Chester with 45 Yi. The loss of Dan Kemple, honorary captain, and Ken Hippensteel by graduation is a hard pill to swallow. This loss is made even greater by the fact that Harry Jenkins has joined the U. S. Army Air Corps and will not be on hand for the coming season. Nevertheless, the remain- ing members of the squad will have to be watched, and will be out to keep B. S. T. C. in the cinder limelight. Varsity lettermen were: Dan Bonham, Ken Hippensteel, Don Jenkins, Harry Jenkins, Mathias Kashuba, Dan Kemple, John Lavelle, Walter Reed, George Spontak, Howard Tomlinson. Junior varsity awards: Bill Barton, Larry Doster, Howard Halpin, Robert Joy, Albert Lutskus, Andy Magill, Victor Turini, Elwood Wagner, Howard Williams. 1940 SEASON Dim!

Montclalr opened the season by winning, but the Huskies came back to even it up against West Chester. Franklin and Marshall, a newcomer to the schedule, won as did Slippery Rock in a telegraphic meet. The season ended with Bloom losing to West Chester. The loss of the perennial winner, Danny Kemple, was felt keenly by the team this year, but two promising freshmen, Walter Kania and Ronald Egroflf, are expected to develop fast. This comparatively new sport introduced to Bloomsburg by Coach Buchhelt, has produced an enviable record and a great deal of pub- licity by holding meets during the half-time of the football games. Cross-country certainly has a promising future at Bloomsburg. Runners earning varsity awards were Donald Jenkins, Walter Kania, Hugh Nlles, and Howard Tomllnson. Hugh Nlles was elected hon- orary captain. Ronald Egroff and John Hublak received junior varsity awards. 129 VARSnV BASKLIBALL First Kow, Left to Iti ht — Josfpli riiesney. Josepli Wesley.

When the smoke cleared away at the end of a hard-fought season, Bloom ' s courtmen stood runners-up to the fast stepping East Strouds- burg quintet. Bloom enjoyed some degree of revenge when they trounced the Nefski five composed of East Stroudsburg varsity men in the Rogers Memorial Basketball Tourney held at Wilkes-Barre. Bloom ' s representatives played under the name Rural A-C and were guided by Grant C) ' Brit- tingham. Bloomsburg came in for a share of individual honors too. Bill Kerchusky, often described as an unselfish team player, was selected as first string center on the 1941 Associated Press All-State Teachers Conference Basketball Team. Bill will always be remembered as a sportsmanlike athlete who dem- onstrated the clean, hard fight which is so characteristic of those who wear the Maroon and Gold. Leonard Slim Herr, a junior this year, gave fair warning to B. S. T. C. ' s opponents next year. Slim was one of the forwards named on the All-State second team, and proved to be quite a point getter. Slim scored 229 during the season. Bill Kerchusky copped the scoring honors with 241 points, and Eddie Walinchus netted 118. A great deal of 130 credit is due Frank Valence, Stu Edwards, Whitey Maslowsky, and Joe Chesney who helped keep the Huskies in the running. When Coach Buchheit issued the 1941 call, twenty-five stalwarts in- cluding eleven members of last year ' s squad reported as candidates. Four of the first five on last year ' s squad returned, Ralph Baird being the only one whose courting was ended (Baird married and did not return to school). In their opener against the Alumni, the Huskies got off to a fast start and swamped the grads under a 61-26 score. Shippensburg was their next victmi when Bloom put in a bid for state recognition by trouncing them to the tune of 54-27, Kerchusky, Herr, and Walinchus being the big guns. Lock Haven tasted defeat at Bloom ' s first home game when the B. S. T. C. five downed them in an exciting contest. In their next game, Bloom beat Millers- ville, defending champions, for the first time in several seasons, and then followed up by knocking off a spirited Shippensburg team. The first setback came at the hands of West Chester who caught the Bloom cagers under that out-in-front pressure and knocked them out of the undefeated class with a well-earned 5 5-47 score. Out for revenge, the Husky five bounced back in their next games by defeating Millersville and Mansfield. East Stroud threw a cog in the wheels and defeated the Bloom quintet in their next game. Still fighting, Bloomsburg defeated Indiana and Mansfield, but suffered a costly defeat at Lock Haven. In the ir last home game the Huskie defeated Mont- clair Teachers by the wide margins of 74-37. In their final game, Bloom lost to East Stroudsburg who gained the mythical teachers college crown.

Ralph Crocamo was the only senior on the team which defeated the McCann Busi- ness School, W ' illiamsport Grit, Penn State Centre, Andy Giermak ' s Edwards- ville All-Stars, St. Clair Ex-High, Danville Doctors, and the Exeter Aces. One of the high spots of their season was the game with Andy Giermak ' s cohorts from Edwardsville. The visitors arrived late, and almost boxed the Jayvee ' s ears who nosed them out in the last minute of an abbreviated contest. The Danville Doctors, always stiff competition were trounced decisively, 51-28.

This year under the sponsorship of Dean John C. Koch, the team, led by Captain Howard WiUiams, represented Bloomsburg in one of the local bowling leagues. Although they were handicapped by the fact that Nevin Slusser failed to return to school at semesters, the team finished well up in the running. It is hoped that next year more students will come out to represent Bloomsburg on the alleys. When he came here four years ago as a freshman, Williams became interested in the bowling team. Ever since he has been a leading scorer and Dean Koch ' s right hand man in keeping the team together. He wdl be sorely missed next year, but it is hoped that someone will keep things rolling for B. S. T. C. ' s bowling team. lUxht Ili.uiird Williiuiis (Ciii.lain), Williiini K.lniniuls, .lulin Suliiii.la. L ' ci.-h .I..1mi C.

Pitifully outclassed at times, nevertheless, the squad turned in some brilliant games and had the fans screaming on many occasions. Millersville, the perennial opener, won a close one. The next two losses were hard to take, for Indiana and Mansfield rolled up big scores. Lock Haven squeezed out a win, and then the club more than made up for the losses of the season by winning a breath-taking victory over highly touted Shippensburg on Homecoming Day. Hundreds of alumni and students roared as Bloomsburg swept to a decisive victory, the first in twelve games. Kutztown and East Stroudsburg topped the Huskies to close the season.

A hard hitting tackier, he has been a mainstay on the defense and will be sorely missed next year.

Bloom ' s 1940 baseball te.im hung up an enviable record of six wins and three losses. The weather man seemed to be angry at Coach Nelson this year — four games were rained out. The Husky nine started off with a win from Lock Haven and a loss to West Chester. In the next game Shippensburg tallied twenty-four runs, more than have ever been scored on a Bloomsburg team. After winning from Lock Haven and losing to East Stroudsburg, the Huskie sluggers finished the season by winning the last four games. Don Houseknecht was elected honorary captain.

Out of a dozen scheduled games, the Huskies played only six, the remainder being called off because of rain and cancella- tions. These they divided into two wins and four losses. The tight for places on the team was warm and lasted throughout the whole season. Coach Koch had difficulty in deciding between his men, for they were well matched and battled earnestly for positions. West Chester t ook the first match, but the determined Huskies trimmed Shippensburg in the next. Mansfield, always strong on the clay, took their home match, and then added insult to injury by tripping up the Bloom six in their own back yard. East Stroudsburg took a close one, and the B. S. T.

Under the sharp eyes of Coach Pete Wisher, of the Bloomsburg High School, the boys rang up four wins, two losses, and one tie. The alumni proved easy as an opener, and the team did themselves proud in holding East Stroudsburg, always a bugaboo for the Huskies, to a tie in a hard fought game. West Chester spoiled the record by taking an easy one, but the hooters redeemed themselves by winning over Lock Haven and Elizabethtown College, who met Bloomsburg for the first time.

This club, one of Bloomsburg ' s oldest, functions in various ways for the college. At all football games the girls have charge of a refreshment stand, selling hot-dogs, candy and cold drinks to enthusiastic fans. In addition to this, on Homecoming Day boutonniere and corsages In the school colors are sold. The girls camp out several weeks-ends during the year, the largest and more important being the Spring Camp, which is held every year the first part of May. Ping-pong became an overnight favorite this year, so the B Club sponsored an interesting and highly successful tournament. Something new and immediately popular with the girls, was shuflleboard. On May Day the club invites girls from the high schools in the local service area and introduces them to the college. In the morning a varied athletic program is planned, while the May Day exercises high- light the afternoon. The club members earn points by group and individual participation in the sports curriculum. Each Spring at the Athletic Banquet awards are made to the girls having acquired a required number of points. Roller skating, hockey, soccer, basketball, cageball, Softball, and archery are included in the sports program for the girls at Bloomsburg. 143 s. loMt; fort) ' or fiftv vcirs from now when your beard ' s as tattle-tale grey as a shirt that wasn ' t washed in Fels-Naptha, or when your hair is up in a sweet little knot in the back, you ' ll probably be able to recall many a humorous incident when you see the seniors as they appear in As you remember them.
