To the Seniors of the Class of 1955: Yours is a heritage of history. One hundred years ago the first institute for teachers was held in an academy which, in turn, became the first normal school. The greatest task of a democracy is the education of its youth. The success of schools cannot be attributed to buildings, grounds, or equipment but is measured by the influence of teachers who lead students to learn to think and to live rightly. May your opportunity for service bring you gratifying rewards is the parting hope of HARVEY A. ANDRUSS, President DR. HARVEY A. ANDRUSS President MR. JOHN A. HOCH Dean of Instruction The rise from Dean of Men to Dean of Instruction is an honored and respon- sible one indeed, but no person was more deserving or better qualified for such an honor than John A. Hoch. Native of Milton . . . graduate of Pennsylvania State College and Buck- nell University . . . high school instructor . . . B.S.T.C. faculty member since 1946 . . . Dean of Men since 1947 . . . pioneer founder and secretary- treasurer of the Pennsylvania State Teachers College Athletic Conference . . . assistant football coach . . . director of public relations . . . chairman of Athletic Committee . . . Dean Hoch ' s list of accomplishments is long and varied. Indispensable is a word seldom used . . . and justifiably so, for few men deserve such a title. But to Dean Hoch, the student body gives the distinction of being as indispensable as one person can be. Each one of us has come into contact with you in some phase of college life ... in the classroom ... on the athletic field . . . over the public relations desk ... in the Dean ' s office . . . and each one of us will carry some fond memory of you . . . an-encouraging smile when college looked the darkest . . . helpful and never-failing advice when most needed . . . intuitive under- standing of all our problems. For this, we thank you, Dean John Hoch . . . the spirit that is Bloomsburg. THE ASSISTANT DEANS B . i Studies Social - l MARY E. MacDONALD A.B..

DR. THOMAS P. NORTH The closing of the year 1954 brought the termination of twenty-five years of dedicated service to the College of its beloved Dean of Instruction, Dr. Thomas P. North. With his retirement, a little of the spirit that is Blooms- burg seemed to follow him. His sympathetic guidance and infinite under- standing linger at the heart of the campus, as do remembrances of his untir- ing efforts for a better Bloomsburg. Dr. North has been called the father of the professional standards move- ment in Pennsylvania, and in keeping with this title he inaugurated an improved system of selection of candidates for admission to college and to the teaching profession. He established a plan for the inspection and im- provement of all instructional facilities. In addition, Dr. North was largely responsible for the institution of the college calendar, for professional orientation classes for new students, and for the class dues program. His contributions have not been confined to the Bloomsburg campus alone, for Dr. North has devoted much energy to furthering high standards through- out the profession. Although he has relinquished his position at B.S.T.C, Dr. North will continue his ambition to strengthen the ideals of a great profession. We sincerely hope that his many remaining years will be filled with happiness and with fond memories of the college to which he gave so much. God Speed, Dr. North. , nHN £.B. LtSS HA R E - v An outstanding Alumnus of the Bloomsburg State Normal School. Dr. John E. Bakeless was selected as a Pennsylvania Ambassador for 1954. These people once lived in Pennsyl- vania, and have gone to greater heights while now residents of other states. Doctor Bakeless: Williams College. B.A.: Harvard. M.A.; Ph.D.: is an author, soldier, and educator, and the son of Oscar Hugh Bakeless, for main years the Director of the Model School. Presentation of the Pennsylvania Ambassador Award is here being made by President Harvey A. Andruss. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS OF SERVICE (1930-1955) PRESIDENT AND MRS. HARVEY A. ANDRUSS ' TIS BUT TO NOTE THE PASSING TIME Doctor Andruss came to Bloomsburg in 1930 to organize the Department of Commerce, of which he was Director for seven years. After serving two years as Dean of Instruction, he became President in 1939. In addition to substantial contributions to both the Husky and Alumni Loan Funds, he has made available the rovalty of one of his books, BUSI- NESS LAW CASES AND TESTS (originally published by Prentice-Hall, Inc., New York City), for student aid in the form of the President ' s Scholarship. Mrs. Andruss came from a Teachers College family, since her parents are both graduates of Indiana State Teachers College, of which her father was a member of the Board of Trustees, and her brother-in-law was Dean of Men and later Dean of Instruction of the Shippensburg State Teachers College. She is also an organizing member of the Bloomsburg Branch of the American Association of University Women, and, in addition to acting as a charming hostess for many college occasions, is active in the club and community life of Bloomsburg. Leaving Carver Hall, ive glance to the left, decide on that route, and continue our tour with a brief visit to . . . i . . . SCIENCE HALL When we think of Science Hall we naturally think of scientific study. However, not only is this build- ing dedicated to the study of science, hut to all the fields of secondary education as well. These is much to remember about Science Hall — much that cannot be captured by a camera. We can only photograph concrete things; we cannot capture memories on film. What are some of the more vivid memories con- cerning Science Hall? Are they . . . the breaks between classes . . .? the pendulum . . . ■ d a chance for old friends to get together.

HARRISON MORSON FRED BETZ, Captain Maiiag e p avl JV NDE s0N BASKETBALL 1955 As Coach Harold Shelly prepared his ' 54-55 Husky hardwood crew for the season ' s curtain-raiser, he found that Fred Betz was the only senior who had survived the four-year grind, and was the only veteran of the championship 52-53 team that had much varsity experience. The remainder of the squad would then be of juniors, who were frosh stars in the championship days, one sophomore, and untried fresh- man talent. At the outset there were many juniors who had been members of that undefeated freshman squad of two years ago. but only Keith Weiser. Bob Evans. Mo Morson. and Elmer Robinson were in uniform when the season ' s final records were written. Len Kozick proved to be the only sophomore surviving the many perils that con- front a college athlete. So this left Coach Shelly with the problem of filling out the bench strength from the freshman talent show. This show proved to be a success as Jim Gustave. Bob Boyle. John Shaffer, and Jim Snyder all lent a hand in the varsity replacement department. As usual, the Shellymen gave a good account of themselves, and were in the running for the league title when they ran into their arch court rival, the Maurauders of Millersville. In both contests the Lads from the Hill held the lead at the half but weren ' t strong enough at the finish, dropping two close decisions to the Lancaster County Tutors. Fred Betz. team captain, played outstanding ball for the Hilltop courtmen. and at the same time paced the Husky scoring department. Bob Evans, in his first season as a starter, proved his worth to Coach Shelly and his mates. Keith Weiser provided an unusual scoring punch from the back court in his initial season as a first team starter. Big Mo Morson asserted his value to the Shellymen with his rebounding efforts and plavmaking ability. Len Kozick. who rounded out the first team, had been second in scoring during his freshman year and followed suit in his sophomore campaign.

The popularity of the inter-collegi- ate mat sport had been spreading to eastern campuses, and it was only a matter of course that Bloomsburg should adopt the idea. Wrestling was well received by the Husky fans, although not too much was known of the grapplers until Coach Jack Yohe held a wrestling clinic at Cen- tennial Gym during an assembly period. Here. Coach Yohe explained the fundamentals necessan for under- standing and scoring a meet. Athletic Director, John Hoch, in one of his last efforts in this post, planned a card that employed seven regular dual meets, and an entry in the Teach- ers College State meet. A new mat, uniforms, and equipment were purchased, and the Husky was ready for its first crack at inter-collegiate wrestling. Of the eight weight divisions recognized in college wrestling, Yohe managed to use at least five freshmen in starting assignments, in order to build a strong foundation for the future. He employed only one senior — Tom Red Welliver. A State Champion from his Shamokin High School days, Red was elected to captain the first Husky wrestling team. Other stand- outs were Harry Hughes, a sophomore from Williams- port in the unlimited weight class, and Don Wise, former Forty Fort grappler now in his junior year, wrestling in the 177 pound class.

MISS MARY FONTANA Dietitian Yes, with the aid of the camera we can see all this and more . . . but these are only pictures — actually worth no more than the cost of printing them. Their real value lies in the meaning they hold and in the memories they stir up within each one of you . . . For there will be memories — memories that will live forever in your minds ... in your very beings. Whatever the future holds in store for you, whatever you choose to do, wherever you choose to go, they will go with you. They will be what this college has made of you, but more important, they will lie what you have made of yourself. They will represent — in you — the total effect, the net result of all that went into the making of your college career. All this is far too intimate, far too intangible for the poor powers of the camera to capture. The camera can do much, but there is much it cannot do. The camera is purely a graphic instrument. It can photograph two friends together, but it cannot depict their experiences or their deep feeling toward one another. It can picture a group or an organization, but the pur- pose, the cooperation, the spirit, are lost on paper. The camera can capture the beauty of a college campus; it cannot show what that campus has meant to you. The camera can look silently about, capturing the magnitude and beauty, but it cannot speak out and say, This has been my home. As our tour ends, we turn to . . . THE ORGANIZATIONS K o OFFICERS . . .

Five veterans of the once-proud championship ' 51 team were available for call, and, as usual, a host of new faces waited to replace many of the greats who had departed from the land of the Husky. Leading the parade of veterans who had performed for Bob Redman and John Hoch on the team that had gone undefeated and taken the first crown ever offered by the newly formed Teachers College Conference, were Alex Boychuck, a returning G.I. who had played in the defensive backfield of the two-platoon era; Eddie Connolley, the Danville Ironman, who was ready for his fourth season at center: John Panichello, the Glenside Giant, formerly a defensive tackle who was now set to work both ways; Big Don Thomas, an exceptionally speedy tackle seasoned with varsity experience; and finally, Charlie Pope, who had played for the past three years as an end. The other two seniors who were ready to write their final grid chapters were the co-captains. Bob Cumens and Tom Persing. Cumens, originally a blocking back, had switched to end in order to strengthen the Yohemen. Persing was well entrenched in his berth as a varsity guard. An all-league selection for 1954, he was a good bet to repeat in ' 55. The Huskies were off and running in the ' 54 season which many experts predicted to be another championship year. They took Mansfield to task 28-0 without exerting any show of p ' o w e r. The game did take its toll, however, as Eddie Connolley suffered a broken ankle during the first half and was lost for the season. The week of practice that followed further put a mark on the chances CHARLES SKIPTUNAS DON THOMAS ALEX BOYCHUCK JOHN PANICHELLO Jose of realizing the new popular phrase on campus, We ' re going all the way. Panichello and Pope were injured, causing Yohe to employ more inexper- ienced hands. Courtland Teachers, making their first appearance on a Bloomsburg schedule, were victims of the win-hungry Huskies, by a 26-13 count. The following week was Homecoming and undefeated Wilkes fell prey to a great Bloomsburg team by a 44-0 surprise. The purge continued the follow- ing week when Bloomsburg traveled to Wilkes-Barre to knock undefeated Kings aside 49-0. in a demonstration of near perfect football. With a record of four wins and no losses, the Huskies were riding the crest of the wave, and as the saying goes, they were riding for a fall. New Haven provided the necessary effort to push the Husky from the nation ' s undefeated ranks, and the final score read New Haven 26, Bloomsburg 14. The Lads from College Hill then took a trip across the state to play a strong California team, and brought the bacon home wrapped in a 20-13 package. Again the stage was set. The biggest one of them all, the one we needed, brought more support from the student body than all the rest put together. West Chester! Win this one and there will be no school Monday. But, it turned out to be the blackest Friday that a Bloomsburg team has had to face in post-war football. As classes went on as scheduled Monday morn- ing it was still hard to believe that this team could have been beaten 41-0. The Yohemen bounced back in the finale by taking Lock Haven over by a 40-13 score. This win enabled the Huskies to salvage a three-way tie for the conference along with West Chester and East Stroudsburg. - PH CZYK EDWARD CONNOLLEY ROBERT DIPIPI CHARLES POPE ROBERT STROUP T Hiu ' feies Get Share Of State Croivn With 40 To 13 Victory At Lock Haven ST END— Mike Panich END— John Marefka TACKLE John Covne TACKLE— Phi] Marella guard Tcm Perslng GUAP.D— Gene Alplanal CENTER— Joe Persipo-i BACK Spence Keyey HACK Jim Browni- Haven Dumps Huskies From Undefeated Ranks WJ$k END— Lesli % % $ TACKLE- ii, ft % a .

Paul Wagner, who at one time had been coach at Donora High School during its reign over schoolboy sports. The diamond hopefuls were a dowery which consisted, at the outset, of a veteran- studded infield, a host of catchers, and a badly depleted pitching and outfield staff. In the experienced infield, first base was well-manned by former monogram winners Bob Stroup and George Derk. At second, senior Johnny Halcovitch. the team ' s leading hitter in 1954. was well entrenched. Rifle-armed Bob Cumens was at third base in this fourth vear as a varsitv competitor. But Doc had some tough decisions to make at the short stop position: Terry Zachowski had been the regular in ' 54, but Chuck Casper also had a keen eye on the coveted infield spot. The final decision rested on the ability of each to field his position with the flawless effort required of a agner-coached player. The catching department had a wealth of untried material, and only Joe Keefer as a hold-over from the ' 54 team. Among the untested backstops were Treverton ' s Harv Boughner. Bobby Boyle, former Scranton player, and Frank Fisk. one-time Danville Ironman. Eddie Shustack. a 1954 letter winner in center field, and Chuck Casper, a shifted shortstop, were the onlv outfielders inherited from the previous season, and the search started for patrollers of the outer pastures. The pitching department was also sparse in starters and light in collegiate exper- ience. Leading the parade of veteran chuckers was Bobby Dipipi. former Old Forge hurler and successful B.S.T.C. pitcher of ' 54. Charles Kwiatkoski. another baseball veteran at Bloomsburg. had also done considerable pitching in the Navy. The rest of the baseball personnel had to be drawn from the pool of green fresh- men and untried upperclassmen. ith this in mind, the Huskies settled down under the eye of Doc Wagner and set about their task with an air of self-assurance.

November 16. 1954 during the assembly period, Victor Michael. Chairman of Religion in Life Week Committee, made the announcement, This is Religion in Life Week. Through the tireless effort of a committee composed of all religious faiths and denominations, the first Religion in Life Week was under- way here on our campus. At first, the student response was viewed with little optimism, but after the atten- tiveness shown during the address given by the Reverend Raymond Shaheen, the speaker for the Protestant faith, there was no doubt that religion was something about which college students were vitally concerned. Further evidence of the fine student response was shown by the number who attended the informal discussion group meetings. The well-populated Carver Hall auditorium for the Wednesday Vesper service, when Rabbi Isaac Vander Walde spoke on behalf of his faith, displayed the desire of the student body to become more tolerant of the other person ' s religion. On Thursday. November 18, 1954, the Right Reverend Monsignor George D. Mulchay. represented the Catholic faith by presenting to an attentive audience his address during assembly. In the afternoon the best-attended discussion group meeting of the series dealt with the subject of Mixed Marriages, concluding three days of religious awakening. The outstanding achievement of the entire program was not attained during the week: rather, it was the continued interest in religion, as evidenced by increased attendance in Bloomsburg churches and the increased number of students who now attend the Student Christian Association meetings. These were the signs that Religion in Life Week far surpassed the expectations of the committee who helped to make it possible. lt Vh JOANNE HESTER, Editor-in-Chief ... a student publication presenting current news and opinion to the college community through the cooperative efforts of journal- istically minded students . . .

However, in later years, the more recent events in your lives will tend to push many of those fond recollections back into the hidden depths of your memories. Our purpose in bringing you the 1955 OBITER is actually an attempt — an attempt to provide, through the medium of photographv. some of the Bloomsburg you knew as a student. We hope that in the years to come you will turn occasionally to your yearbook and refresh some of those memories which time might have tended to fade a bit. If you do this, our pur- pose will have been accomplished.

Class of 55 MY FELLOW GRADUATES In a short time you will close your college careers at Bloomsburg. You can be j ustK proud because of the many sacrifices made by you and your families in order to reach this accomplished goal. I should like to be one of the first to offer my sincere congratulations. As we go out into the world, each in his own way. let us never forget the happy memories of these ivied walls. Each of you will leave your mark at Bloomsburg . . . some large, some small, but nevertheless a mark . . . Bloomsburg too. will leave a mark on you that will never be erased. As you leave, do not go with the thought in mind that vou have finished. Believe me. vou are onlv beginn ing. Do not stop until vou reach the top. Bloomsburg has given vou a good start. Always remember as you take your place in the teaching profession that the most important part of one ' s life is not in doing something for himself, but in doing something for others. Besides ourselves and our parents, there are many other factors that deserve recognition — our President, our Faculty, the Board of Trustees, the model community of which we have been a part for four years, and finallv. the great state of Pennsyl- vania, without whose help many of us would not have been able to make this step upward. I want to thank you for the honor and privilege it has been to serve as your class president. It is my heartfelt wish that life may be filled with great happiness for you and yours.
