Andrlss President Greetings to the Seniors of 1945: A class that has adjusted itself to so many changes will undoubtedly be able to meet the challenges of the world ahead. Pearl Harbor awakened students to a new world — a world at war. For a time there was confusion, luil (uit of this confusion vou emerged with a willingness to meet many Jiew and chailinging conditions. You have succeeded. With this characteristic, the Class of 1945 leaves its Alma Mater with a record unrivaled in the ability to plan for the progress which we expect you to make in the future. I salute you. President. 10 Thomas P. Nokth Dean of liistniiiiiiii To THE Members of the War Class of 1945: Your college years have been among the greatest history-making years this world has ever experienced. During these years a large, but little known world, has shrunk to a world, the farthest point of which is relatively only a few hours distance. Already you speak of the hump ' between India and China, or of Leyte or some other once unknown place more intelligently than your parents did before the war of our own Rock Mountains or Oklahoma. Three of the major factors in your success or failure during these short years have been War, Change, and Adjustment. War brought to you a depletion of your ranks and regrettable sorrows. It brought numerous changes in your routine ways of living, in your class schedules, and in your programs. Instead of attending four years, many of you have adjusted your economy and energies to the accelerated program, whereby you have completed the requirements of a four-year curriculum in less than three calendar years. The vicissitudes you have ex]jerienced and the adjustments resulting from them have lieen not without values. One of the greatest of these has been the development of ability to cope successfully with change. In the final analysis, a person ' s education is dependent not only on his degree of ada|)tability, but is conditioned by the extent to which he is able to surmount his adversities. We sincerely hope that these influences have greatly fortified you for a life of progress in an ever changing civilization. 11 Marcierite Kehr Dean of W omen To THE Class of 1945: This Obiter will bring vou memories of the time when we fought the battle of Bloomsburg on the home front. To use the language of the I a , when your anchors are aweigh. may you sail to ictory and return safely to your home port. We shall i)e waiting to hear about our achentures. Sincereh vours. Marglerite Kehr, Dean of Women. THE DEANS To THE Members of the Class of 1945: May I extend congratulations and best good wishes to the graduating group of this vear. None of us know what the future ma hold for any of you. i ul whatever happens, remember that the people at Bloomsburg will be glad to welcome on back to the campus when- ever vou can find it possible to return. Best regards. John C. Koch. Dean oj Men. John C. Koch Dean oj Men 12 Left tu Uiclit— Mr. Ci ' hrii;. Mi. Fcjriie.v, .Mr. l;. i;iel. Business Education The high schools of Pennsylvania may proudly look to Blooms- burg for its source of adequately prepared teachers in the field of Business Education. Since this college specializes in this course of study, the training is such that it advances business knowledge and skills as well as teaching theory and practice. A person graduating from this curriculum, ha ing received his B.S. degree in Education, has had an opportunity to become certified in the following subjects: Bookkeeping and Accounting, Business English, Business Writing, Commercial and Economic Geography, Commercial Law, Commercial Mathematics, Economics, Junior Busi- ness Training, Office Practice, Salesmanship, Shorthand, and Type- writing. The high schools of Berwick. Bloomsburg. and Dan ille co- operate in the training of teachers in this field. In giving the students an opportunity for practical application of their subject matter and theory courses. This training period consists of observation of a regularly employed teacher, lesson planning, and actual teaching of high school classes by the student teacher. Bloomsburg ' s Business Education Curriculum graduates are be- ing looked up to everywhere as persons superior in the fostering of Commercial Education, as well as business relations. 13 Left to night — Miss II;izhii.

To broaden his cultural background and expand his fundamental attitudes, courses in orientation, guid- ance, psychology, philosophy, and teaching techniques are retjuired for graduation. So that the student niav gain practical experience before he goes out into the teaching profession, actual school situations are brought before him. This tends to furliier develop ability, poise, and confidence — attrib- utes so necessary to the successful teacher. Mr. Bailer of the Teacher Training Department heads a placement service which has built up an enviable record in securing desirable positions for Bloomsburg graduates. 14 Seated, Left to Right — Miss Mettler. Miss Penn. Miss MfCjiiniiHni. Stitndint ' — Dr. Nelson, Mr. Biichlieit, Capt. Koch. Health Education A well-organized Health Education Department gives all students an opportunity to participate in various forms of competitive athletics, jjesides the regularly scheduled gym classes. For the V-12 trainees, P. T. is a popular part of the daily routine. Supporting the Navy ' s theory that Bloomshurg ' s V-12 ' s must be the best apprentice sea- men in the Fourth Naval District, their physical fitness program is wide and vigorous, including swimming, track, basketball, volleyball, footliall, oljstacle courses, and individual workouts. Intercollegiate sports have again become important in the school ' s calendar of activities, the teams being composed to a great extent of Navy men. 15 Seated, Left to lii ht — Miss .lohiistMii. Miss Mason, Miss Gilmore. Standing — Mr. Feusteinaker, Mr. Bailer. Mr. Wilson. Language Tliis department, headed l y Mr. Samuel L. Wili on, ineludes the regular English courses such as English Grammar, Composition. English Literature. American Literature, World Literature, Advanced Composition, and Business Correspondence, as well as the language courses: Spanish. French, and Latin. A freshman will find himself meeting with Mr. Jo- seph R. Bailer for a course in beginning English. If, later on, he desires a foreign language, Mr. Fenstemaker will be his instructor. Up until February, at which time she temporarily left here to instruct at Hunter College, New York, Miss Alice Johnston had charge of all speech w(irk. This included the speech clinic at the Benjamin Franklin School, and work in speech and play produc- tion. In connection with the latter. Miss Johnston di- rected the Bloomsburg Players, dramatic club. Mr. Wilson and Miss Pearl Mason serve also as advisers for the Maroon and Gold, the college news- paper. 16 Jliss Kaiisciu, I r.

Science and Mathematics Witli ruiiliiiiK ' il importaiue and empliasis being placed on the courses taught in these two fields, the Science and Mathematics Departments are rapidly be- coming more and more popular each year. The Navy, loo, realizes the importance of subjects such as physics, chemistry, algebra, geometry, trigo- nometry, mathematical analysis, and calculus; as a re- sult, the department meml;ers are kept busy. 17 Miss Rich. Dr. Maupiii, Mr. Reams. Dr. Russel. Social Studies and Geography Tliese two courses, being so closely related, may be chosen by Secondary students as two of their fields for certification. They aid in obtaining a rich background of information which is needed for an intelligent inter- pretation of present-day situations and problems. Some work in these fields is recjuired in the Elemen- tary and Business Education departments as well, so tliat every student may have some insight into what makes tlie workl click, as well as what we today are fighting for. 18 Students studying in the Elementary and Secondary curriculums receive training in this field, since it is they who will be dealing with the more cultural phases of public school education. Students in the Secondary curriculum receive a course in Music Appreciation, whereas the Elementary people receive closer instruction, for it is the latter group who will go into the grade schools and help mold the singing habits of young America. Music 19 Resident Nurse and Dietitian Miss Beatrice Meltler, the resident nurse, has the important duty of ministering to ailing students. She has maintained the reputation for willing aid and kind attention. Miss Ellen Penn. the dietitian, directs the buying, preparing, and serving of all meals in the college dining room. With the increased enrolment, the dining room requires skillful management. Jliss Mettler, Miss IViin Business Manager and Superintendent of Grounds and Buildings Mr. C. M. Hausknecht has the re- sponsibility of the efficient manage- ment of the Business Office which takes care of all financial matters of the college. Mr. N. T. Englehart has the re- sponsibility of taking care of repairs and maintenance, prepares for dances, entertainments, and ail special occa- sions. As Superintendent of Grounds and Buildings, he has many duties. He has always ])roved that efficiency is vital to the smooth operation of the college campus. Mr. C. M. Hausknecht. Mr, N I i: 20 (iiliin.re, Miss Ma Art Students in the Secondary and Ele- iiienlai cuirieulunis are required to take courses in art and art appreciation. The elementary field also includes courses which embody the six fundamen- tal principles of art as applied to every- day living. Professor Keller includes in liis courses opportunities for students to practice drawing, lettering, poster-mak- ing, creative designing, and the use of color and design. Each course aims to develop a keen sense of judgment and appreciation of good design and color scheming in clothes and home jjlanning and decora- tion. Library Miss Pearl Mason and her as- sistant. Miss Dorothy E. Gil- more, have charge of the li- brary. The library serves as a ( learinghouse for Navy text- books as well as an aid to stu- dents in the selection of ma- terials. itrye J.

Bailer took us in hand when we made our home in Bloomsburg. He guided us through the usual trials of the freshman year. Dr. Kimber Kuster next stepped into our lives. Our Sophomore Year was made memorable by the self confidence he instilled in our hearts. Dr. Elna Nelson was our Junior Class adviser. His sense of fair sportsman- ship was readily sensed by all. Finally, Dr. Nell Maupin entered into the final act. She put on the finishing touches to aid us in holding the title of dignified Seniors. To all we give sincere thanks. 25 Arlene Superko President Elvira Bm.rii Vice President Senior Class OFFICERS President Vice President Secretary Treasurer - Sponsor Arlene Superko Elvira Bitetti Betty Zong Catherine Longo Dr. Nell Maupin Our Senior Class may be called a strange mix- ture of many classes. We cannot even say the Class of 1945 started out together; and of those who started together, many have gone in various directions. To those who have gone into service for our country, we pay tribute. To the others who graduated in February, 1945. On the accelerated program, we extend admiration for their ambition, and to those who did not complete the course, we express regret. Through the sincere efforts of our president, Arlene Superko, we were able to finance an elabor- ate Obiter by means of a canteen. We are also grateful to the other members in the college com- munity for their patronage.

We were ready to resume our studies after four delightful months of vacation. Upon investigation, we found a few missing from the ranks. Horace Readier and Elmer Marianacci had left us to answer the call of Uncle Sam. We wish them the best of luck and hope they will return soon. Louise Schlegel, Terese Sidari, and Robert Megargel had transferred to other col- leges. They know they have a standing invitation to visit us. Some of our Sophomores who attended the summer trimester were one up on the others and became Juniors in the March trimester. The Sophomore Class takes this opportunity to wish the Class of 1945 all the success and happiness that can be derived from the teaching profession. 51 Elizabeth E.

With new groups arriving three times a year, we carry with us the memories of many varied faces and personalities. The purpose of the program is to train prospective Naval officers in the subjects which will most benefit them in their Naval careers. The Navy can be sure that it has the cream of the crop, for rigid tests and discipline elimi- nate those of lesser intelligence and endurance. It is truly a survival of the fittest. Many of Bloomsburg ' s V-12 s have since been commissioned as ensigns in the United States Navy and are now serving with the amphibious forces in the seven corners of the world.

The Governing Board of the association consists of a president, a vice president, a secretary, a treasurer, and three representatives from each of the four classes. The various committee chairmen are appointed by the Governing Board. Dr. Kehr and Miss Rich act as advisers to the Gov- erning Board. The girls have several informal get-togethers during the year in the form of floor parties. Singing and eating comprise the entertainment of these parties. A plan for entertaining the mothers on a special week-end was initi- ated a few years ago. This has ])roved so successful that every spring a week-end is set aside for the girls to entertain their mothers. This is called Mothers ' Week-end. In April, the dormitory girls and day girls hold their Annual He-She Party. At this party, the new members of Governing Board are introduced. Seated, Left to I!i|, ' lit— Miss nicli. I. (ieliiuiiii.

These two together made an ideal combination at our basketball and football games. Both Mr. Buchheit and Dr. Nelson spurred the leaders on to cheer the teams to win. John Opalka provided rousing cheers and entertainment with his undying lovaltv to the team. The college thanks these persons for their enthusiasm in putting the college behind the team. 110 ' ' 7 2 kw Y[ ACTIVITIES 9f Kneelini:, Left to Ri lit — E. Bourgeois. E. Wltnian, X. Miles, D.

Football Bloomsburg ' s gridiron eleven played an abbreviated five-game schedule winning over Ursinus and Drexel, and dropping the remaining three. Despite the inclement weather, many of the alumni returned on Homecoming Day to watch the Huskies chalk up their second win of the season over a hapless Drexel eleven. The classic struggle saw B. S. T. C. riding on top of a 20-6 margin. Scranton and Drexel topped the Huskies to close the season. The team was coached by Delibraida and Kostos.

Soccer Although the Husky soccer edition failed to meet the record of preceding years, another hard fought season was turned in by Earl Davis ' boys in winning one game out of f(jur. The three defeats were by a one-goal margin. The Huskies showed plenty of fight in the first two games of the season against Bucknell, despite the 1-0 and 2-0 defeats. Not discouraged by their losses, the Huskies put all they had into the game against West Chester, and the result was a victory for Bloomsburg. The season ended willi the Huskies losing to West Chester. The boys under Coach Davis developed a good team despite its many hindrances.

Basketball Our team this year was made up of Navy V-12 s and one civilian. This is the second basketball season in which the Navy has represented the college on the floor. Coach George C. Buchheit ' s Huskies turned in a fine record during the contests of the 1944-45 court season, emerging victorious in 10 out of 13 scheduled battles. Defeats were suffered at the hands of Bucknell. Indiantown Gap, and Olmstead Field. Even these games provided excitement. Mike Remetz, A S, a former student at the college, made a record of which the college can always be proud. John Hmelnicky, a regular college student, made him- self famous for his excellent long shots. All in all. each member of the team has given something to the college that we can never forget. We owe them a vote of thanks.

As was true in other sports, the eligibility ruling of the Navy prevented many hoys from wrestling; however, the Huskies gave each of their opjjonents stiff competition in every contest. Track Coach George C. Buchheit ' s Huskies, consisting of Navy men, flashed through another great track season. The season consisted of intermurals, inter-platoon, and company meets. The Huskies blazed their way to the annual Peini Relays where once again Bloomsburg made an outstanding show- ing against stiff competition. 117 Baseball The Husky nine, compos ed mostly of Navy men. hung up an enviable record being victorious in five out of seven games. The Bloomsburg tossers, coached by Dr. Nelson, got off to a good start by winning the first four games of the season against Berwick A. C. F., Ursinus, and East Stroudsburg. The winning streak, however, was broken when Olmstead scored a 6-0 victory over us, and Penn State followed by a 12-2 victory. The Husky sluggers finished the season by winning the last game.

As yet there has been no formal competition with other college groups, but the lively activities which have taken place in the different swimming classes leads us to believe that here is fertile ground for future development. 118 SEmoRS Join Your Alumni Association And Keep Your Membership Active Through the Years Our Object: To Keep the Door of Opportunity Open for Worthy American Youth.
