The 1949 OiilTKR is a faithful representation of vour experiences at Hloomshurg. Within the past four years American educational institutions have graduate, have witnessed the impact of a government-spon- sored mass educational jnogram which threatened hriefly to destro the time-hon n ' d educational system. In this transi- tional year of ]9f9. the hustle and !)ustle of the |30st-vvar years have slowly suhsided into the coin|)lacenl drone ol academic progress. Like the Ivy. education continues its growth. lo lv spreading its tendrils into every nook and craimy in its inexorahle searih lor knowledge. CONTENTS COLLEGE FACULTY CLASSES ORGANIZATIONS ATHLETICS ADVERTISEMENTS w A History ot Ivy Day The iiu-reaj ingly rapid current of pass iiig years has swept away a num- l)er oi H. S. T. C. s traditional observances and has caused others to become so condensed and accelerated as to be barely recognizable by early alumni. Our annual Ivy Day Exercises fall in the latter category. When Ivy Day originated on campus, about 1909, (1911 is the first one recorded in the college scrapbook), the exercises actually consisted of a (•(imbination Iw Day oration. Class Night program, and pre-view of Com- mencement, rolled into one. The 1912 program is fairly exemplary. The class of 1912 was gowned in the class colors and carried ropes of daisies which were the class flower. The procession started at the tiortli end of the grove, weaving in and out of tlie trees until they reached the natural tage ju t north of Science Hall. After planting tlie ivy along the norlluve tern corner of Institute Hall (now Carver Hall), the class, followed by friends, relatives, and alunuii returned to the grove where the class song was sung, alter which a welcome was extended by the class president. The Ivy Oration wa then jjiesented. followed by the awarding of class numerals to members 10 oi tlie Ijasketlnill and li.u k Icaiiis. The class poem, wliicli had been chosen previously in a ((inlcsl. was recited hy the author. An address was given by Prof. Dennis, a I ' acuhy member, and finally, the president of the college. Dr. D. J. Waller, spoke to the graduating class. With minor variations, this was the general procedure lor the next 24 years. Until recently, weather permitting, the exercises were held in the Grove. Before the presentation of the pergola by the class of 1916, programs were conducted on approximately the same site which the pergola now occupies, but either on a temporary wooden platform or on a grass carpet strewn with evergreens. Although the erection of the pergola was authorized hy the class of 1916. it was not finished in time for their Ivy Day program; therefore the class of 1917 was the first to use it. The classes were once gowned uniformly in their respective class colors, but later changed to white dresses or suits with ties, sashes, or carried pen- nants with the class colors. There is no record of the years 1919-1923 in the college scrapbook. but it is presumed that the programs were much like those ol preceding years. Tlie 192 I Ivv Day iiitrochued a new type of program, stressing poetry and the enmtnient of certain of the classics. These featnres predominated for the next five years. Part of the entertainment was described as follows: ' ' At the sound of Pan ' s trumpet, twenty wood nymphs attired in costumes of green appeared from tlie woods beyond the pergola and gave a dance of nature. Several poetic references to ivy were made in the Ivy Oration, one ol which was a portion of Dickens lines from Pickwick Papers: ' Fast he stealeth on, though lie wears no wings. And a staunch old heart has he; How closely he twineth. how close he clings. To his friend, the huge oak tree! Whose ages have fled, and their work de(a ed, And nations have scattered been : But the stout old ivy shall never fade From its hale and hearty green. Creeping where no life is seen, A rare old planl i the ivy green. In 1925, Ivy Day and Class Night became more specifically di ided. Many tiaditional features of Ivy Day. such as the class poem, class will. 12 |)rci|ili( ' cy anil liistory wtTc iiicorporali ' d iiiln llic ( ' .la s Night program. Also the miiiiber of lengthy speeches was radically reduced. The class song was retained in the ivy exercises and other leatures were sulislitulcd tor those discarded. In 1925, the pla Robin Hood a enacted liy the S( nioi ' group. In 1926 the Senior l)ra c(l chilly ind to present a Greek pageant on the pergola. The |)lay Ohcroii and 1 ihiuKi I roni A Midsiinimer l ' ight s Dream was gi fn in 1927. in addition to the usual procession, the ivy planting oration, and singing of tdass songs. This was the first year that a girl was chosen to gi e the I y Oiation. The young wdiuan honored was Miss Evelyn Harris, ol l crwick. Having once broken ground, ihe women held sway lor the next lour years, with loui ' conM ' cutive female orators. The class of 1928 dramatized three Greek niyth . Iiecause of incle- ment weather, the program was held in the auditorium. n t Among other out tan(liiifi leatures of the 1930 oration, the loUowing anonvtnou lelerence to h u in liulefl: Then uc ' ll iPlurn and seeing it ui high.

The ivv was planted, the Oration given, and Miss Moore led the group in inging Maroon and Cold ' and the Alma Mater. From this year on. the Ivy Day oli ervances were of a simple nature. The Oration of 19.3.3 deah with the ymli )li m of ivy and it parallelism to the future ol the (•las . as did the speeches of other years. John McGrew, the orator, -aid. in |iart: Of course we would plan to do graduate work. 14 For just as tlif ivv needs roiitiiiual noiirisliiiicnl to keep it alive anil giowinj;. we too need cdnstanl inlelle liial nourishment il we wish lo attain our lull growth. ' 1936. which marked a (|uarter eentury of Ivy Days, was highlighted hy a series oi rhvthm clog dances on the pergola hy five senior girls. That year, for the first time, a lawn party was held lor alumni, friends, and relatives. following the Ivy Day exercises. This look the place of the Class Night program, and the parties were held with few exceptions for the next seven years. In 1943 the party was still a feature, hut Class Night was also held. 1914 was a verv (piict v ' ar. with little licside the Oration heing sched- uled. In l ' M.3, sim|)le exercises were Iwld aftei ' the Baccalaureate sermon, in the morning, and this has heen the custom for the past four years. Thus we have tracetl the transition of Ivy Day through the years; from the elaborate classical ceremony of the early 1900 s to the brief, simple exercise of today. No matter how the formal procedure is changed to con- form to the times. i v and its symbolism will always remain the same. ODE ON GRADUATION The li( n rush of somber marcliiug strains.

Students It is not long since you as Freshmen came up College Hill To work and pla where nearbv the Susquehanna flows, since time was old and things were still. Like you, others saw heaul with each season pass — colors, green in summer every- where Then brown Iea es fall and uhite snow drifting down until only pine and hemlock were not bare. Year after year new students came and went until you. too. were here in this long file But soon you will go and others come, who in their turn will only stay awhile. But. in a way, you do not go from here, for e er student leaves something here behind. Something that lingers after they are gone, something that lingers on in every mind. They studied once just where you studied now: on these same chairs the sat with worried brow. They found it hard to work the ]iroblem right — the same old problems ou worked last night. And so you go, but still you stay behind, for something that you left here will be ours. To make us think of you. to hope you ' ll find long years of usefulness and haiJjjy hours. President. To die S enior Class It has been my responsibility to admit you to this college, assist you in your education, recommend you for graduation and for certification as a teacher. Now I look forward to your success as a teacher and hope that in the not too distant future you may be listed as a Master Teacher.

At graduation time you deserve to experience that glorious feeling of satisfaction that conies from reaching an important milestone. You have worked hard, ' ton have made sacrifices. You have ac- (|uired training and kiuiwledge. You possess new tools y ou will learn how to use in search of progress. For this is no final goal. It is but the preparation for something you want but have not achieved. Each of you faces a challenge that calls for supreme effort and great wisdom. Before ( u is a res])onsiliilit to keep freedom in America. At no time in the history of the world have the stakes becTi higher. To preserve the dignity of the individual man. To remove the fear of want and oppression. To preserve these United States as a rock of material and spiritual strength in a world of chaos. To bring eventual peace with well-being to all ])eopIe. This responsibility is the most serious job of )(nir generation. May your endeavors c intriliute to llie happiness of people everywhere and thus assure our own greatest happiness. .loHN A. HOCH.

The accelerated program under which the college has been operating since the close of World War II accounts for one of the largest graduating classes in the history of Bloomshurg State Teach- ers College. Out of a total of 200 Seniors, a great number of veterans attending college under the G. I. bill have completed their four-year college course in three years. As a general rule, members of the .Senior Class have been too busy to contribute to the social and recreational activities on the campus. A large segment of the class has been assigned to Williamsport for practice teaching, while other members of the class have had teaching assignments in Bloom - burg, Danville, and Berwick. The Seniors are looking forward to graduation in May, and particularly ' to the .Senior Ball which will be held at the Hotel Sterling in Wilkes-Barre. This affair supplies a fitting climax to the years spent at Bloomshurg in pre- paration for the teaching profession. 32 Joseph A. Adamoms Pitlston. Pa.

Despite these losses, the Sopho- more Class now boasts of 170 members who have taken an active part in all school activities. Members of the class have pro ided cajsable leadership in sports, assembly programs, extra-curricular acti ities. and all scholastic events. The Sophomore class alwavs provides a warm welcome f(u- incoming Fresjimen. Ha ing so recently ex]}erienced the rigors of college customs, the Sophomores were particularly zealous in enforcing Freshman Week regulations. Several class meetings were held throughout the school term for the purpose of determining class policy, and the loyalty of the Sophomore class was demonstrated by the large turnout for the Obiter group picture. Under the capable leadership of Mr. Clayton Hinkel. the Sophomore Class elected officers early in the school vear. The only social affair sponsored entirely by the Sophomore Class is the Sophomore Cotillion. It has been the custom in former years for the Sophomore Class to present a lavish spectacle in Centennial Gynmasium soon after the second semester opens. The officers of the class are already making jjlans to continue the tradition established almost a centur) ago during the lemire of Dr. Francis P. Haas, former President of the college.

Maupin The Freyhiiian Class of 1948 has an unusual nunilier of talented and energetic nienihers. as evideiued from their assembly program at tlie begin- ning ol the term. The program wliiih they presented was one of the most outstanding in the history of the college. The Freshmen soon tiiade themselves at home and are now active in all phases of college life. The Frosh formal was held, as is the custom, the first Saturday following the Easter vacation. The dance was well attended and was a tribute to the class ' s hard work in preparing for it. All members of the class are looking forward to increased participation in school affairs during their remaining undergraduate years. It is their hope that these years ahead may be increasingly productive in rewards gained through study and learning, and through the fellowship and experience of extra-curricular activity. 69 Fresl iiiian class Roll Aagaard.

The chief aim of the club is to arouse the interests of the members in both the natural and physical sciences. Many phases of chemical, biological, and physical sciences are studied. The i rograms consist of discussions, moving pictures, quizzes, demonstrations, and field tri])s for the |)urpose of stud ing scientific aspects of the campus. The rapid acceleration of scientific discoveries resulting from experimentation carried on during the war period provide the club with much interesting material. The limitless possibilities of atomic energv. jet propulsion, the Mt. Palomar telescope, and new plastics are but a few of the intriguing subjects discussed by the group. Members of ihc ( lub ( arcfulK observe all developments in their chosen field. The highlight of the clid) s acti ilies is the ali-da field trip which usualK is held ill ihc spring.

This early deadline made it impossible lor the editorial staff to give complete coverage to the 1948-49 baskelliall suinmaiies. The base- ball and tiack srite-ups. out of necess ity, nnisl summarize the |jre ious sea- son.

Every effort is made to eliminate errors from ihe text of the Obiter before it reaches your hi.nds. Then, after the final ok, the 1949 Obiter is printed, bound, and delivered to you. All in all. the staff has enjoyed working together: it lia been a great ex- perience. We have done our best to give you a yearbook thai will bring back pleasant memories of the years you spent on the campus ol the Bloomsburg State Teachers College. The 1949 Obiter Staff includes the following tudents: Wayne Von Stetten. editor; Kay Chapin, associate editor; Frank Luchnic k, business man- ager; Muriel Marks, copy editor; Grace Smith, senior editor; Nancy Swartz, art editor: Curt Miller, sports editor; Robert Walther. photography editor; James Boyle and Robert W illiams. advertising manager : and Joseph Sopko, staff secretary.

Barbara Sherman, Jean Stewart, William Miller. Clenn Von Stetten. Joan MiDonald. and William Homisak. Ruth Elder is laif typist, and George Kearney is a member of the art staff. Plans are already underway lor the 1950 Obiter. The half-century mark w ill call for special cITorls on the part of the school editors. Although the theme has not been chosen, it will undoubtedly include special emphasis on the significance of this mile-stone. The Twentieth Century, without cjues- tion. has released the gicatcst forces for good and evil the world has ever witnessed. The editors of the 19 19 Obiter sincerely hope that the latter half ol ihc ccnlurN will bring peace anti |)ro |)erily to all peoples. 100 Tlie Olympian Editor Associates Priscilla Abbott Harvey A.

Informal parties are held at nearby cabins and summer homes of members of the chuich congregation. Plans ha e been made for a trip to Eagles Mere as soon as weather conditions permit loi)ogganing and other winter sports. At a recent meeting of the group, it was decided to hold meetings of the Fellowship weckl rather than bi-monthl) as a result of increased interest in the informal meetings. The Re . G.

These points are accumulated by participating in iiuiividual or group s|)orts. B Club social meetings are held the first Monday night of every month. At these popular get-togethers refreshments are served and the otHcial business of the club is discussed. This year approximately sixty girls attended a B Club Christmas party lield at the hoiue of Miss McCam- mon. Every Thursday night the girls hold intramural activities in the Centennial Gymnasium, where they have access to the gym door and swim- ming pool. This gives the girls an opportunity to learn and to participate in a variety of athletic activities. Intramural leagues proviile hotly contested games in the sports ol field hockey, volleyball, cageball, softball. and basketball. Such sports aid in furthering the ideals of s|)ortsmanship, the spirit of co-operation, and the development oi athletic prowess. 115 116 I ' irvl l;i,«. l.-n ti. rUlit IMrri ' ll. Api. h.-ll i .

FOOTBALL Alliletits have alwa s been an important part in the ciniiruhnn of B. S. T. (.].. hut it is douhtfiil if any but few envisioned the day when the football season would conclude with not a single defeat or tie on the Husks reeord. But. a policy of inducing the best football material [jossible to bring their wares to our campus has paid t ff in the results that we all know so well. . Students and alumni, both, re- ceived what the) have so long desired. Many factors are responsible for this season ' s successes. Excellent conditioning that kept injuries at a mininunn. a wealth of capable reserve strength, and favorable weather conditions, in addition to the natural ability of the plavers. combined to place on our campus the only un- defeated-untied football team in Pemis Kania. The team gave its best at all times: perhaps slackening a bit when the going was easy, but rising to the heights when the chips were down. In only one contest did it register an over- whelming score: but in none of the gaiues was there any doubt as to the best team on the field. (Credit must be gi en to e ery man on the squad. When the regulars retired, the reserves carried on in great stvle as the gained the valuable experience that will pa off next season. This 1941) edition of the Huskies was a fighting organisation that well deserves the plaudits it has received from sports fans and coaches in Pennsyh ania. In the face of less than lukewarm student support, the players worked together as a unit and supi)lied an adequate replacement for school spirit in the team spirit they displayed at all times on or off the field. Perfection was their goal and they appeared to be striving constantly to attain it. A glimpse at the record is enough to indicate how close they came to reaching their objective. Last August, it was ucll known that (loach Rednuin had a gtxid team, but no one. last of all. Redman himself, considered it the great team that later e ents pro ed it to be. Gone were a mmiber of stars that had formed the nucleus for a winning conibiiuition the previous season. Among the departed was Matt Malev. one of the finest passers that has ever set foot on a Husk gridiron, iiut he remained in a coaching capacity and saw veterans Steve Kriss and Joe 118 Apkliella and lu ' wcoiiu ' r. Bol) Lang, form a passing Irid that had no didicidty hitliiig George Paternoster and Elmer kreiser. the finest pass receivers in the ronfereiMc. When he wasn ' t pass- ing or running, Kriss was out there snatchinp: aerials himself, an art al uiiirh lie was as capable as anyone. A pleasant surprise of the season was the excellent shiiwin r (if Dan raircil uho had seen little service last year. Dan took over at the fullhack position and made a aliant hid to become the leading scorer in the state. JoeApiihella returned to school to become one of the leading ground gainers on the Husk team. Tom Donan and Rodue) Morgans at the tackle posts buill up sue h a reputation for fear- lessness that the), themselves, were feared l)y all opponents. Frank Luchnick and Larry Mus- soline, though quite inconspicuous, earned the plaudits of their teanmiates for their staunch work at the guard positions. Johnny Maturani turned in stellar performances as first string pivot- man, and was spelled in this position bv the ever-competent Bernie DePaul and Paul Slobozien. who also saw dutv in the backfield. Luchnick. Albauo. Mussoiine. Donan. Paternoster. Kazmerovicz. Wayne Von Sletten — ah, what a bunch. The 11 he sadh missed ii the Huskies when the curtain rises next year, but there is enough material left, plus the probable addition of able freshmen, to enable ( ' oach Redman to look forward without shivers. SUMMARY OF 1948 SEASON The outstanding feature of the undefeated 1948 football season of tiie Huskies was prob- abl the well-balanced attack and defense molded by Coach Redman and his aides. True, sev- eral indi iduals were selected lioiu the man) to gain the honors that cati fall on but a few. but if any particular player stood out before the others, he wasn ' t noticed 1) the nuiltitudes that watched the Huskies perform. Along the line. Tom Donan reached the zenith of football glory in Bloomsburg by being named in succession to the first All-Conference and All-Pennsylvania team, third string Little All-America and honorable mention on the All-Eastern squad which contained many of the greatest names in American football. Elmer Kreiser and Joe A])ichella made the All-Confer- ence first team and followed this by recei ing honorable mention on the Ail-Penns) Ivania and All-Eastern squads. An aftermath of all the football laurels being thrown Bloomsburg ' s way was the information that several National Football League clubs were seeking Donan and Frank Luchnick, who was named to the All-Conference second team. Another interesting note was that everv one of Bloomsburg ' s rixals that picked an All-Opponent team picked Donan and Kreiser. BLOOMSBURG 25 — WILKES Almost everv man on the s(|uad saw action in this game sponsored by the Berwick Lions Club at Berwick ' s Crispin Field. An added attraction was the return to the scene of their high school triumphs b Ste e Kriss. Bernie DePaul. and Don Peterson. Apichella s] arked tiie Huskies on their first touchdown drive — one that carried fifty-five yards. The pa off came on a Kriss to Apichella pass that netted thirix ards and six points. In the second quarter. Dan Parrell scored the first of the man) touchdowns he was to make this -T M i!;an ' - and Parifll Irad wa al Ka-I Mr Uhiii;;. season when he iilunjieil ii ei lioni llic t«(i- aid line after the Huskies had recovered a Wilkes fumble on the nineteen. Reedy tore through the opposing line for a touchdown on the first play of the last quarter. Possibly the most exciting action of the entire game c ame in this period when Lang interce])ted a Colonel pass on his own twent -eight ard line and skirted down the sideline until he crossed the goal line for the final Huskv .score. BLOOMSBURG 7 — MANSFIELD The Huskies made it known right from the start that they were going to be THE team in conference pla h nipping a highly- touted Mansfield elexen. 7-0. Striking early in the first quarter for a touchdown and extra-point, the Huskies held on to their mar- gin through the remaining periods to chalk up their first confer- ence win. They never relinquished the ball as they took the opening kickoff and marched sixty-five yards for the score. Par- rell dove over from the one-yard line and George Johns converted. BLOOMSBIRG 6 — LOCK HAVEN In contrast to the Mansfield game, the Huskies waited until midua in the last period to score their single, but winning, touch- I A.r.is- .Ml.sn Kn-isiT. l !ili-iiii Di.iinii. l.ll.liTii.k. 120 A Apicliella nailed after skirting end for ten.

As in the pre- vious contest, the deciding touchdown came after a sustained dri e, this one carrying from the Husky forty-yard line with pass plays eating up most of the ardage. Joe A|)ichella went the last nine yards on a power play inside his own i ight end. BLOOMSBURG 20 — MILLERSVILLE 13 For the first time of the season the Huskies found themselves trailing the opposing team, hut they came back strong to edge a surprisingly strong Millersville eleven by a 20-1.3 count. The Marauders ended all hopes of an unscored upon season by the Huskies when they crossed the Husky goal line in the first quarter and added another six-pointer in the final period. Late in the second quarter. Kreiser blocked a Millersville punt that was recov- ered bv the Huskies on the Millers ille forty-nine. A dri e started that terminated when Kriss scored from the one. Parrell added the second Husky score after a Millers ille fumlile had been re- covered on the eleven-vard line of the Marauders. Later on. Parrell tallied his second and the Huskies third touchdown of the night. ■ si ' s .V a. l; ;i.lniL: DciWii .-in.! . .r.. Kriss slices i flF tacklf fur five big yards in Big Red game. BLOOMSBURG 13 — SHIPPENSBURG 7 () eRoining a se eii-point deficit, the Huskies made it six straight by downing a power-laden Red Raider squad that was at liigh |)itth because of the homecoming celebration on their campus. A Hatfield to Stuart pass in the first quarter brought six points that raised hopes in the Red Raiders of a victory, but the Huskies i emiiarked on a sevent) -eight ard sustained drive that netted them their first touchdown when Parrell scored. The big pla of the game occurred in the final period when, with the Huskies trailing. 7-6. Kriss heaved a long pass to George I aternoster who took the ball on the Huskv twentv and raced across the goal unmolested. Johns added the extra point and the score stood at 13-7 when the game ended several plavs later. BLOOMSBURG 27 — Kl TZTOWN The Husk avalanche continued to roll as it (balked up an easv 27-0 decision over Kutztown before a capacitv Homecoming Dav crowd at Mt. Olympus. The game started with a march by the Huskies from their own thirty-eight that carried them across the goal-line when Linkchorst passed to Steve Kriss from the tweiitv-two vard line of Bloonisburg. In the second quarter. Par- rell scored and Kriss intercepted a Kutztown pass in the third period and sped across the goal to give Bloomsburg a 20-0 advan- tage as the reserves took over. Don Peterson was credited with the  ?ii K.-iuJin;; I1..W1I iiii.l A r.iss final tnurhdown of the day when he caught a pass thrown hv (Menu Von Stetten. Johns missed the extra-point tr . hut the game was won. 27-0. anyway. BLOOMSBURG 25 — KING ' S COLLEGE A willing but outmanned King s College was trampled. 25-0. by a merciful Husk team that played what was. perhaps, its worst game of the sea- son. The first of Bloomsburgs touehdowns came in the o])ening minutes of the first quarter when King ' s fumliled the kickofT and Hloomshurg rero - ered. Several plays later. Apic hella scored the first touchdown. A jaunt of fort) -four yards by Kriss brought the Huskies touchdown number four in the last quarter after Parrell had sandwiched two six- pointers between Apichella ' s score and Kriss ' run. BLOOMSBURG 47 — LYCOMING As expected, the Huskies crushed inqiotent Lycoming h a score of 47-0 before a disap])ointing- Iv small Appreciation Da crowd. At no time in the game did Lycoming have a chance to win. and never was the Husky goal threatened. Touchdowns were scored by Lang , Peterson, Von Stetten. 2. Jones, and Parrell., 2. The most noteworthy part of this game was the fine performance of the reserves who played all but a few minutes at the beginning of each half. BLOOMSBURG 14 — EAST STROUDSBURG The Huskies wrote a new record into Hloomsliurg archives when they crushed East Stroudsburg, 14-0, to complete the first undefeated-untied season in the school ' s history. A safety was scored by the Huskies in the first quarter when a Stroudsburg back fumbled in the end zone after a vicious tack- le by Tommy Donan. Later in the period a drive was initiated b the Huskies that lirought about the first touchdown after changing goals at the end of the first quarter. Parrell plunged over from the one- yard line to make the score o-O. Jim Reedy drove off-tackle for seven ards and a touchdown in the third period and the score stood at 11-0 until the end of the game. •IIIM IMINAN l.illlr All AjiicTi.a:i Hail the Champion! 1948 SUMMARY IJ.

(Julio, Kashnt-r, I ' linzettn. Basketball With seven veterans batk and a niimlier (if lietter than average newcomers on hand. Coach isher and Huskv fans iewed the oppiiinj; of the cage season «ith a high degree of optimism. The quintet did nothing to destrov championship hopes when it pried the lid off the 48- 49 schedule with an impressive 45-40 victory over a battle-tested Millers illp quintet. Newcomer Dave Linkchorst and veteran Smoky Andrews paced the Maroon and Gold attack with fourteen and ten points, respectively. Leaving the home court for the first time, the Wishermen ran into trouble at Lock Haven and fell before a last period assault of the powerful Bald Eagle court machine. 55-45. Andrews continued his sparkling pla and tallied seventeen points to lead both teams. Smarting from the Lock Haven defeat, the Huskies came back strong to smash the ilkes College Colonels bv a score of 69-37. Andrews connected for fifteen points in this game which was outstanding, probablv. because the Colonels high-scoring ace Sekerchak. was limited to sixteen points, a small sum when contrasted to the forty odd points he had averaged per game until this contest. Again the Huskies hit the road — this time to East Stroudsburg. It seemed the cover was on the Bloomsburg basket as the home team walked off the floor with a 43-32 victory. Quite a few reserves saw action, but the were unable to break through the ever-alert Indian defense. The Huskies journe ed up the Susquehanna and came back. That is about all that can be said of the 63-47 loss suffered at the hands of the vindictive Kingsmen. Coach Wisher used frequent substitutions, but nothing was quite enough to stem the tide of spectacular long shots and perfect lav-ups. After two successive losses. Coach Wisher changed his style of attack a bit. and the cagers were eagerly awaiting the arrival of the Lock Haven Bald Eagles in Blooms- burg. Lndefeated in their two previous home encounters, the Huskies were in an uglv mood, anxious to redeem themselves and once again jump back into championship 124 Jones gets tap as Milleis il|f fray gels imilerway. consideration.

Wilh an inex|jeiienceil team taking the held against powerful Lock Haven in the opening game, things looked dismal indeed lor the Wishermen, but much to the surprise of every- one. Lock Haven was forced to go all out to eke out a 3-2 verdict over tl le Maroon and V7iii( (;. Dent anil Diehle did the scoring for tlie losers. A new lineu]) was installed li (loach Wisher as the hooters opened ihcir home season against Howard University. This proved to lie in ain, though, as Howard spotted the Huskies two goals in the (ir t ((iiarter and then went on to win 4-2. Owen Uiehle scored liotli goals loi- the Huskies. Playing at Lincoln in the third till of the year, the Hu ky kickers came ihrougli with their first victorv of the season li a 1-0 score. 12(; With high hopes of avetiging the earlier defeat by Loek Haven, the Huskies met tlie Bald Eagles on Mt. Olympus and in one of the most exciting fracases ever played here, the Huskies had to how by a 3-2 score. Not (li-hcarlcncd In ihcir latest reversal, tlie Huskies did iiattle with West Chester and after leading for the greatest portion of the game, succumbed 5-3 in a game that went into two extra periods. Willi one win and four losses on the record, the Huskies met Lincohi before the Homecoming croud and reteived another jolt as the colored school was in a revengeful mood that day and blasted out a 4-2 victory over the luckless Wishermen. A trip to the nation ' s cajjital proved fruitless as the Huskies bowed for the ecolld lime this season to Howard, this time by a 2-0 count. The last game of the season more than compensate d lor gloomy result oi ' the games that had gone before. Meeting highly favored East Stroudsburg on Mt. Olympus, a pepped-up team presented Coach Pete Wisher with a 2-1 victory over his alma mater and made it the second year in succession that tlie Warriors have fallen to the Huskies. Although on first sight the season seems to have been a dismal one, this year ' s soccer team is deserving of bou(iuets lor the spirited attempts they made to duplicate the record of the year beloie. The spirit of Bloomsburg was truly represented on the field in every game. The opjjosition realized that they were in a ball game and with a few Ineaks perhaps victory could have been snatched away from defeat in several of tiie games. Even thougii such fine players as Conrad and Allegar will be lost through graduation, Mensinger, Dent, Vincent. Diehle. Getchey, Kline. Heydenreich and the others will provide a valuable nucleus around which to build a winning team in 1949. Thus, no tears should be shed for the losers, but rather hopes held high for next year ' s potential winners. 127 Track and Field Looking back to see what nui men of the cirulei-palli did in 1948, we find that llic season was none too sparkling. But pi()S])e(ts for the coming season are little more than bright with a number of outstanding thin clad performers returning for another fling at the ancient sport. The game the Huskies like to forget in 194;! was the opening meet uilii liic Shippensburg Red Raiders who won by the overwhelming score of 110-10. The Huskies bounced back with a vengeance, however, several days later when they trounced a fair Scranton aggregation by 78 to 48. Cheyney Teachers sent a strong team to Bloomsburg for the next meet and was sur- prised by a Husky creu that lalmlaled sixty-eight points to the visitors fift -eight. It was the Shippensburg slaughter all over in the next meet, though, with the only difference being in the opponent, Lock Haven, which showed no mercy as they took the Huskies in tow to the tune of 112-14. The Wisher lads had the misfortune to meet iioth Lock Haven and Shippensburg on the same field in the State Meet which went to Lock Haven. The only points garnered bv the Huskies were through the efforts of Elmer Kreiser who picked up three points with a fourth in the discus and a fifth in the shot put. A perennially great Lincoln team paid a isil to Bloomsburg and repaid the hospi- talitv iif their hosts b stealing a 99-27 v ictorv . A disastrous seasoTi came to close when liic Huskies went to East Stroudsburg to be trampled 80.5 to 45.5. 129 I ' irsl Kciw, I. ell III IJislif c;ric-..Nki. M:ircl;. Slolio .ien, ricslr.ik.

An Ahnnni l)a croud witnessed the Huskies lake their final contest of the season against King ' s College. Though vastly improved, the Monarchs were no match for the determined Huskies who were out to atone for the miserable showings in the past aames. 130 Girls ' bports lliider ihe dircclii.in of Miss Lucy McCainiiKiii.

In (Appreciation As we glance about the Obiter Office, it seems difficult to realize that our task is completed. We have attempted to present to the students of Bloomsburg a publication that is worthy of our fine Institution. Whether we have suc- ceeded or not you must judge for yourself. The keynote of the work this year was co-operation. We, the staff of the 1949 Obiter wish to extend our heart- iest thanks to the faculty, the students, the various classes and organizations who aided us in every way possible. Special thanks go to Mr. DeVoe, without whose assistance the formation of the Obiter would have been an impossi- bility; Mr. Wilson for his valuable guidance; Dean North for the use of his class records; Miss Zealberg for the use of the Library files; Mrs. Knight and Mr. Hausknecht for their kind co-operation; Miss Eyerly for her courtesy in making the mail available for the Obiter staff; Mr. Garner and Mr. Hallisy for the use of their files, and President Andruss for the use of the Obiter Office. We are grateful to the Grit Publishing Company for their cheerful co- operation in the printing and binding of the book; to Mr. I. L. Dobyns for his fine work on the photographs, and to each and every member of the staff who gave countless hours of their time in order to reproduce a picture of the school as we have found it. The 1949 Obiter is now in your hands. As we present this book to you, we do so feeling that we have done our very best. THE OBITER STAFF, Wayne Von Stetten, Editor. 151 AUTOGRAPHS
