The post war education boom was at its height. Among those many students who began their education in col- lege at that time were many of the students who are now Seniors. In the beginning it was all very confusing to us, but in a very short time we found that as a class we would be guided through the mazes of college life by a very able man, Dr. Donald R. Predmore. After a bewildering beginning, order began to sort itself from chaos and in a surpris- ingly short time — to us — we found that our first year of college life, Freshman Week and all, was just a memory. With the summer gone the way of all good things, we returned to Clarion in September of 1947 to make an amazing discovery — we had really missed Clarion during those long summer months. It was a nice feeling to be back on the familiar campus seeing familiar faces and exchanging greetings with the friends we had made the first year we were here. As the whirl of classes, studies, social events, and informal gatherings with our friends sped past, we found that time was also speeding past us and in a few short months we were contemplating not Christ- mas vacation, but summer vacation again. This time it was with some regret that we departed from the campus; in fact some of us could not drive ourselves away, so we stayed on for sum- mer school, and incidently picked up enough credits to make it possible for us to graduate a semester earlier. Our junior year at Clarion brought along many new things, among them a new class President, Clifford Cook. Everything went along very well, except that Skip Cook had consid- erable trouble trying to raise enough money to pay for the tremendous expenses of the class, which amounted to about two dollars and forty- five cents. The Christmas Dance, which is one of the big social events of the school year, was spon- sored by our class in our junior year. It turned out to be one of the finest ever held at Clarion and was very well attended by faculty, students and alumni. Later on in the year, as thoughts traveled ahead into the future, we began to think of our next year here at the school which had come to mean so very much to us. It was with sorrow that we told ourselves that we were rapidly drawing near the time when it would soon be So long to all that was familiar and a faint Hello to a strange new world — a world into which we would be thrust with a diploma in one hand and a certificate saying we were teachers in the other. September, 1949. At last the much vaunted senior year in college was upon us. Registra- tion day found us enrolling for student teaching with definite foreboding. However, in a few short days we were before classes, teaching the students the things which had been so pain- stakingly implanted within us by our own teach- ers of the past, from the first grade up through our college career. Little by little our fears were allayed and in a short time we began to feel at home in the classroom, yes, even to enjoy being before the class. May, 1950. Here, now, is the month in which many of us say farewell to our under- graduate days, and what is even more signifi- cant and sorrowful to us, to Clarion State Teach- ers College. Yes, we shall be back to visit, often, too, but never again shall we have the feeling of belonging, which has been so much a part of us since first we came to realize how friendly a place the campus of C. S. T. C. is. It has been our home for four short years, now we go to seek a new home, and we hope it will be half as pleasant and hospitable as Clarion State Teachers has been. eisaae to the L tc of 1950 ass Historians are saying that we have lived through the most momentous period of history in the last five years. Changes have occurred in the world which were more important than the fall of ancient empires, and these historic cataclysms were generally hundreds, and even thousands, of years apart. We have wit- nessed the fall of three empires and the decline of two others. The center of world affairs has changed from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and America has emerged as the leading nation of the world. We now know how the Romans, Greeks, and Egyptians felt when they were passing through the great changes of history. Come back in a few years and let ' s talk over other changes in history that have taken place. I wish I could be with you at your fiftieth reunion, 2000 A. D., to hear what you would say. To get to more immediate things, I wish to advise every member of the class to follow all of the leads that he may get for jobs, especially the social studies and geography majors. Wherever you can help some other person be sure and do it. Clarion graduates are recognized as being well prepared. You should feel confident in helping each other. PAUL G. CHANDLER M- p0i Urn-.

OFFICERS President John Jannuzi Vice President Joseph Shaw Secretary Margaret Bish Treasurer Wayne Mader Advisor Mr. Harrison Hartman sjviviLor L iaM Jsfldion We entered Clarion in the fall of 1947 as a very enthusiastic group of freshmen. Scattered among the class were a few of the veterans of the last war, who did not share our enthusiasm. The youngsters in the group were ready to set the world on fire, but these grizzled vets felt certain that this was impossible — the world had already burned. Nevertheless, they worked har- moniously under the very capable, guiding hand of Mr. Hartman. The class was soon organized and as president, a Penn State freshman was chosen. Really, nothing of importance took place in this freshman year, except that we became acclimated to the customs and conven- tions of college life. The following September — 1948 — we were no longer freshmen. By some quirk of fate we had passed all prescribed courses, and presto! now we were upperclassmen. Although we lost a great many of our freshman to Penn State, we weathered the loss in great style. Remembering our bewilderment as freshmen, we as a class, wished to help the 1948 newcomers avoid some of the confusion and conflicts that we had en- countered in 1947. Early in the term a Get Acquainted Dance was sponsored by our class. Thanks to the concerted efforts of Lila Brown, Jennifer Messier, and Paul Taylor, the affair was a huge success. At one of the first meetings of the class, John Januzzi was elected president and director of our fate, and under his friendly guid- ance, our second year ended successfully. Come September 1949, another hurtle has been passed, and we have now attained the coveted status of juniors. The vets have lost some of their skepticism, gathered in some of the eagerness of youth, and we ' re running a smooth course. Mr. Hartman is still our guiding light and John Januzzi still our president. (Third term, John?) John has done a fine job and is to be commended for his untiring efforts. At our first meeting we were asked to have three members report for work on the Sequelle, to learn the techniques and facilitate organization for next year. The big highlight of the first semester has been another Get Acquainted Dance following the football game with Chey- ney State. If the senior year of this class is as profitable as the first three years, truly the time spent at Clarion will have been the best years of our lives . uniord Louis Aaron Fay Ames Shirley Arner Joseph Bailey Daniel Balya E.

The class as freshman, under the capable guidance of Dr. Clark Gill, successfully completed a happy year, orienting themselves to life on the campus and becoming an integral part of all college activities. Adjustments had to be made to dormitory life, roommates, new friends, and professors. Concerning the latter, many incidents, humorous and otherwise, are brought to mind. And so it was that the Class of ' 52 returned to Clarion last fall with that we know our way around look in their faces and a confident I will not be discouraged spring in their step. The first serious business of the year was the election of class officers. Returns from the ballots made Robert Osterholm, president; Ray Predebon, vice president; Ann Marie Brady, sec- retary; and Marjorie Dible, treasurer. Patricia Skinner was elected to represent the sophomores in the newly formed social committee. On De- cember 17 the class sponsored the annual Holly Hop, a semiformal Christmas Dance, which proved to be one of the big successes of the year. The sophomore class is equally proud of the musical talent displayed by Michael Helmintoller and its singing nightingale, Katherine Adams. The class has also contributed its share of mem- bers to the chorus and band. Outstanding in the field of dramatics is Patricia Schultz whose humorous monologues have sent audiences roll- ing in the aisles. Where ready wit and original humor are concerned the names of Paul Mochnick and Mary Knowlton will long be remembered. Members of the class have shown active par- ticipation in college sports and clubs. It may be noted that many of the sophomores are enrolled in either the Student Christian Association or the Newman Club. This is but one indication of their efforts to develop the entire personality. T he sophomores are proving themselves ca- pable of accepting the role of future teachers of America, and it is with happy anticipation that they await their junior year. S opk ' ,omored K. Adams L.

Of this group two hundred eighteen expect to finish their edu- cation at Clarion, and ninety are planning to attend Penn State next year. There are also twenty second semester freshman. For most of us this experience of entering college was like coming into a new world. We had just gradu- ated from high school where we had been upper- classmen; now we were starting again as timid, bewildered freshmen. The first week was the most baffling. On Tuesday, September 13, 1949, we registered. Then came freshman examinations. After our final day of examinations, we were given a re- ception by the Chandlers and the faculty at Dr. Chandler ' s residence. Because of the warm hos- pitality shown us by the upperclassmen and the friendliness shown by everyone, we lost our ner- vous tension and settled down to normal campus life. The Freshman Class was well represented on the gridiron. Out of seven cheerleaders, four of them were freshman. Again our equlibrium was disturbed, amazingly enough, by the ob- servance of Freshman Week. Unwittingly, we were thrust into the foreground of campus life by our enforced mode of behavior and by our imposed style of dress. Purple and gold dink caps dotted the campus and huge cardboard signs flapped in the breeze as freshman ran here and there. All good things must come to an end, sometimes a good end, and thus Freshman Week ended with an enjoyable, traditional Freshman Sing. As the year progressed, the class was organized under the excellent guidance of Mr. Lewis, our class advisor. For two weeks the Fresh- man Class dominated the campus with vigorous campaigning which resulted in the election of our present officers. Our campus life, to date, has included our first tests, comments, Homecoming, Thanksgiving dinner, Christmas dinner, and the long awaited Christmas Dance. As the semester is rapidly drawing to a close, we are contemplating which fraternities and sororities we should like to join. Through these we hope to obtain the fellowship to which we have been looking forward in college life. We now realize the good times ahead of us and are eagerly looking forward to our future years at Clarion. _ O ft f O ff (55 ft M9m m Wtm E. Abbonizio T. Aiken N. Allison D. Anderson A. Antill V.

Blissell The cheering section at Clarion State Teachers College is led by seven capable and charming young ladies. Their enthusiastic shouts of encouragement have spurred many of our college teams on to victory. Motivating and enlivening the student cheering at sports events has become the pleasant duty of these lively co-eds. Three of the pretty misses are upper classmen: Lila Brown, a junior from McKeesport, Jone Willson, a junior from Smethport, and Lena Staley, a sopho- more from Clarion. The remaining four are from the freshmen class. They are Ann Bastress, from Clarion; Ellen Blissell, from Butler; Helen Gongaware, from Jeanette; and Glenna Rose, from Penn Township. At the end of her first year of service, a cheerleader is awarded a Clarion C , and when she completes her second year she receives a gold sweater. All cheerleaders are under the efficient sponsorship of Miss Spaller, the director of women ' s athletics at Clarion. p r r i XX •w ■ _. , Row 1 J. Kelley, J. Rinadi, R. Ze Row 2 R. Huet, W.

Coach Robert Moore held battery practice in the gym, but fielding practice was delayed because of the sea of mud. The winning pitchers were John Busch and Andy Yakim with fine relief roles turned in by Wayne Mader and Merle Sheffer. Frank Lignelli led the batting with an average of .462, followed by Juban, Malacarne, Kelley, Lesser, and Curr, all having averaged over .300. Mason held down the backstop position while Kelley, Lesser, and Zeleznock did an excellent job of fielding.

Carnohan 3 ennis Coached by Thomas Carnahan and sparked by such stars as Chuck Biddle and Jim McKinley, the 1949 tennis team turned in one of the best records ever compiled by the wearers of the blue and gold. The team, composed of six seniors and one junior, ran roughshod over all opposition, including two victories over Grove City, the first in the history of our school. The team points with pride to the individual records of Chuck Biddle, who went undefeated in singles and then teamed with Jim McKinley to win all their doubles; of Craig Himes and Bob Morrison, who went undefeated in doubles for the second consecutive year; of John DeLong, who has lost only three matches in two years of varsity play; and of Kenneth McMillen and John Banjak, who were inexperienced but determined. Thanks to the Varsity C Club and the Student Senate, the team was rewarded, for their fine work, with jackets.

While the lettermen and rookies competed for berths, expectations among the student body ran high, but little did any of them realize that ahead of them lay one of the most exciting and successful seasons for a Clarion gridiron squad. Cheyney journeyed to Clarion and were sent back to Philadelphia licking their wounds on the short end of a 41 to score. The Blue and Gold then successfully invaded Edinboro to the tune of 33 to 0, and the next week repulsed a like invasion by Rio Grande with a thumping 47 to victory. On October 15 the gridders from Clarion traveled to Greenville where, after a hard fought game, they triumphed over Thiel by a score of 21 to to continue their unbeaten, untied, and unscored upon season. The scene of the next encounter was at Cali- fornia, Pennsylvania, where the Blue and Gold tried in vain to spoil the Vulcans ' Homecoming. The Red and White, with their heavier line and strong running attack, wore the Eagles down and won the decision 20 to 14, spoiling Clarion ' s un- blemished record. The Eagles bounced right back, however, to gain their fifth victory over Indiana by a score of 1 9 to 1 3 to make hysterical the larg- est Homecoming crowd in the history of Clarion. On November 5 the Blue and Gold journeyed to Cambridge Springs where they outfought the tough Alliance squad to win a 7 to victory. The final game of the season, played at Clarion with the Rockets of Slippery Rock, was a hard-fought, drag-out battle. The Eagles appeared nervous, however, and fumbled; fumbles lead to touch- downs and Slippery Rock won 1 4 to 7. The following is a brief sketch of the twelve seniors who contributed heavily to the Eagles ' winning season and played their last game for Clarion on Armistice Day, 1949. Ed Blockowicz — Block — a native of Bridge- vi lie, 23 years old, 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighs 175 pounds, a fine center, works mainly on offense. Bill Casper — Chippie — all around athlete from Homestead, 26 years of age, 5 feet 11 inches tall, weighs 175 po unds, is especially strong on defense, outstanding guard on the varsity basketball team.

Dunn levevino, W. Sistik, J. Neese, J. Uzmack, R. Shaw Steve Delpero — reserve back, from Sharon, noted for his fine defensive play, weighs 170 pounds, is married. Bob Flath — Mope — comes from Greens- burg, 22 years old, 6 feet tall, weighs 210 pounds, plays guard, also an outstanding wrestler, won STC heavy-weight title in 1946, is married. Tom Komisak — another Greensburger, played high school ball for Johnstown, weighs 190, has played end, tackle, and center for the Eagles. Ed Rusciolelli — Trix — from Sturgeon, at- tended South Fayette with Block , 21 years old, 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighs 175 pounds, plays guard on offense, is also a varsity wrestler. Frank Lignelli — Boats — comes from Mo- nongahela City, was captain of the 1949 Eagle squad, defensive center, 23 years old, 5 feet 11 inches tall, weighs 180 pounds, one of the few three lettermen on the campus, an outstand- ing varsity wrestler. Norge Luvison — resides in Youngsville, 23 years old, 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighs 185 pounds, plays quarterback, an excellent ball handler and passer. Bill Murray — native of near-by Oil City, 21 years old, 6 feet tall and weighs 205 pounds, performs at tackle for the Eagles. Robert Robinson — Tuba — hails from Punx- sutawney, 6 feet tall, weighs 180 pounds, plays end, is a fine pass receiver and punter, one of the fastest men on the team. Milan Svitchan — Bill — a Johnstowner weighing 165 pounds, stands 5 feet 8 inches tall, one of the team ' s smallest members, has plenty of spirit and drive, plays at the guard position, a married veteran. Tony Mason — a Sharon native the same as Steve, one of the heaviest men on the squad tip- ping the scales at 220, plays tackle, also a mem- ber of the college baseball team. The Blue and Gold football team of 1949 was a fast, smooth team. Their razzle dazzle play plus such incidents as Ken Bailey ' s 96 yard run against Edinboro, the chatter and line play of Mike Caruso, the line plunges of Glenn Sten - net, the passing of Dave Bevevino, and the broken-field running of Bill Walls made the Eagles an exciting team to watch. The season shows a record of six victories against two de- feats with Clarion scoring 189 points to the oppo- nent ' s 49. Frai Captair ik Lignelli , 1949 Eagles Jrank cJLu meiu Frank Lignelli, outstanding athlete and student of Clarion State Teachers College, has brought recognition to our school by his bril- liant playing and his fine sportsmanship on the gridiron. Selected as a member of the All-State Teachers College eleven, third team All-State, first team All-Tri State Class B Colleges, and first team All-State small colleges, Frank has received more honors than any other wearer of the Blue and Gold. Because of his fine sportsmanship and capable leadership, Ligg has honored his school still further by being chosen as the second most valuable player in Pennsylvania ' s small colleges. Frank has also proved his versatility by being the first student in the history of the school to win twelve letters in major varsity sports; four each in football, wrestling, and baseball. As a wrestler Ligg was Student Coach during the season of 1947-48 and was runner-up in the State Wrestling Tournament in ' 48 and ' 49. On the diamond he has proved himself to be an adept infielder and a power at the plate, leading the team during the ' 49 season with a batting average of .462. Off the field as on, Frank is a hard worker and a fine gentleman. An ex- cellent student, a member of the Student Senate and Alpha Gamma Phi Fraternity, he contributes to the social and intellectual life of the college in the same unselfish spirit which has made him the superior sportsman and capable leader that he is today.

A new State Teachers College ruling sent several of the most promising players to the ineligible list; then in- unes took their toll and weakened the team still further. These things along with he teams inconsistency resulted in an unimpressive record of 5 wins and 12 losses. The State Teachers College ruling that a transfer student must have a year of residency at a school before he may participate in a varsity sport proved a hard blow to the Eagles. Amos Bartolli, Robert Kelly, John Wieberg, and Joe Wmkleman were affected by this ruling, but to compensate they played Junior Varsity ball and were responsible for the J. V. ' s record of 10 wins aaainst 2 defeats. The blue and gold showed championship form in winning over Gannon Grove City, Indiana, and Alliance, but during the rest of the season they just couldn ' t seem to click. The illness of Russell Whitford and the injury of George Derk and John Buck may have accounted for some of the team ' s inconsistency Against all these odds the team showed a quality of sportsmanship and will to win that deserves the highest praise. Each player gave his best no matter what the score and proved himself worthy of wearing the blue and qold of Clarion. The nineteen forty-nine and fifty Eagle basketball squad had several seniors playing their last year for Clarion. They are as follows; George Derk who hails from North side Pittsburgh, William Casper from Homestead, James McCready and Russel Whitford who reside in Bradford. « , r jmtf-- r-r. 1 1 Row 1 J.

Tippin The Varsity C Club is an organization on the campus consisting of athletes who are being honored for their good sportsmanship and their participation in the field of sports. The purpose of this organization is to help and to promote inter- collegiate athletics in the college. To gain membership in the Varsity C Club, a person must earn a letter in any of the varsity sports: football, basketball, tennis, or baseball, at Clarion. Its membership has increased over the past years, and it is now looking forward to keeping the organization growing each year. Special awards to seniors, three-year men, and two-year men are being purchased with the money made from the sales of refreshments at various games held on the campus. The students ' cooperation in buying these refresh- ments from C-men has contributed toward the buying of these awards. The Varsity C wishes to extend its thanks to the students of Clarion in helping the club in every manner. Row 1 M. Smith, P. Carr, L. Maxwell, M. Longiotti, M. Spleen, B. Grossman, H. Bell, P.

Prominent among the activities of the year were a wonderful week end at Cook Forest, several bowling parties, a notable intramural program which in- cluded the participation of over one hundred women, and a training program for girls who are interested in working with a sports program in the teaching field. In addition to the required sixty-five eligibility points earned through par- ticipation in intramural sports, a prospective member must have attained an average of C in academic work. The recent acceptance of Mary Lou Dover- spike, Florence Creighton, Martha Glover, Lila Brown, Donna Cribbs, Marjorie Eberle, Dolores Hutter, Joan Johnston, Sally Knight, and Gail Wagner has greatly boosted the present membership. On the completion of her first year of membership, each girl is awarded a letter, and when she has finished two years of service she receives a bracelet. 1 ! r . , 1 1 I ! ■ i ■ 1 ' m ' , r _ - i ■ -L J | i i i l i redtun 9 Although Clarion did not support a wrestling team this year, two of the students did represent the school at the state wrestling tournament at Lock Haven. Because there was no Clarion team this year, our fellows had little opportunity to gain experience through daily practice, consequently they lost out in the firs ' round. The two students who attended the tournament were Frank Lignelli, Clarion ' s fooball star who received honorable mention on the Little All-American football team, and Frank Pecora, a varsity wrestler of former years. With the dropping of wrestling as a varsity sport the students at Clarion lost several exciting evenings of fine enjoyment. We are looking forward to the time when this sport, which allows men regardless of size to participate on a var- sity team, will be returned to the varsity sports schedule of Clarion. m 9 !fi stoneee V- . • Row 1 T.

The Art Club encourages its members to broaden their out- look on life, to develop their appreciation of the fine and minor arts, and to learn to live and work together graciously. An enjoyable event this year was the trip to Youngstown, Ohio, to visit the Butler Art Institute. By the way of contributing to campus life, the club continued its practice of distributing Co-Op pictures and selling Christmas cards. At a charming Christmas party held in December, the club sang carols, exchanged gifts, and enjoyed a program of unique numbers. For its regularly scheduled club meetings the members plan seasonal activi- ties. At Christmas time they made yarn Santa coat lapel ornaments, and for the spring term, they expect to make and design aluminum trays. Row 1 E. Cholfant, E. Walley, B. Sherwood, F. Wilson, D.

This musical organization takes pride in the school spirit, pep and en- thusiasm shown by its members at football games, at pep meetings, and at our weekly assemblies. Once each year the band participates in a college chapel program which is presented by the combined efforts of the musical clubs on the campus. One favorite number of the program is The Teddy Bears ' Picnic. At Christmas time the band developed a program in which instrumental and vocal numbers were featured. Their repertoire included Christmas carols group singing, and special numbers sung by a group of vocalists. This experi- mental type of entertainment was favorably received by the student body. Each year the band presents several assembly concerts at many nearby high schools. This year ' s program offered a wide selection of numbers featuring the numerous instru ments of the band. The present increased size of the band and its enlarged scope of activities demonstrate its appeal to students and predict, no doubt, its potentialities for future growth. Mghton, M. E. McConnell, E.

This year the choir got off to a flying start with its participation in the assembly program pre- sented in chapel by the combined musical groups of the college. Each year the choir holds a series of spring concerts in churches and high schools in our Western Pennsylvania service area. This year the concert tour included a two-day visit to Monaco and surrounding communities where a num- ber of programs were presented. Katherine Adams ' soprano solos were a de- lightful feature of each program. Each year at the Christmas season the choir takes an important part in the presentation of Handel ' s Messiah , an evening program held in the college chapel. Membership in the A Capella Choir is limited to students who are interested in choral work and who wish to continue their musical training while attending college. Members are given meritorious awards of sweaters and letters at the end of two years of active participation. t nieimble E. Dunham, F. Creighton, K. Adams, P. Carr, N. McEIhattan, M.

Its purpose is to provide an outlet for the energies of young men who enjoy good music. In October of this year Mr. Lore reorganized the Glee Club and has arranged, with the help of Mr. Hart of the music department, to conduct a musical program for one of the regular chapel periods. In addition, it hopes to give several musical entertainments in nearby communities. A more extensive program is being planned for the immediate future. This is the only musical organization on the campus composed entirely of men. The crooning of Michael Petruska, novelty numbers of Paul Rossman and Wells Stockwell, plus the harmonizing of the entire group make not only enjoyable but also very worthwhile entertainment. Mr. Lore and the present members of the Glee Club extend invitations for membership to all men on Clarion ' s campus who enjoy singing.  S. Gibson, M. McConm L. Sebring, G. Rose, Durbin, B.

This club has been continuously active at Clarion since its inception in April, 1920. It is the oldest extracurricular organization of the college. Membership in The Players is gained through try-outs open to all students. During 1949-1950, the club had a membership of fifty-five. At the regularly scheduled meetings, various phases of play production are discussed and demon- strated: make-up, costuming, lighting, properties, and acting techniques. During the present year, several plays, student directed, have been given in the club room. Publicly presented plays included Suppressed Desires, given in November as a chapel program, and Dear Ruth, given two evenings in March as the major annual production of The Players. The club has not neglected the social side of its activities. The highlight of the year was the Christmas banquet and program. This was a most interesting and enjoyable affair including even a Santa Claus with a gift and a good word for everyone. e.o. v.c. M Sgt. Frank Brown and Sgt.

The chief purpose of the club is to study all phases of geog- raphy and to instill in its members a deeper appreciation and understanding of all the basic activities which lead to the improvement of our civilization. The main achievement of this year ' s work was the annual all-day trip to Pittsburgh. Excursions through the local glass plant and bottling company have added much of interest to the experience of the members. The social activities which highlighted the year included a Christmas party and a mid-semester dance. Every member of the club is given the opportuniiy to make some contribu- tion to the success of the Geography Club. All of the programs of the regularly conducted meetings are planned for the enjoyment of the entire group. Row 1 V. Bowser, C. Meegan Row 2 M. Hilliard, M. Waldorf, J. Carbaugh, D. Benson, A.

It aims to provide situations in which its members may apply their knowledge of correct social usage. Discussions at meetings center around etiquette for dates, conduct at teas, introductions, flower arrangement, conversation, personal appearance, and many other intriguing problems. During the year various social affairs are planned and enacted by its mem- bers. Activities of the Yuletide season included the contribution of a dinner to a needy family and the decorations in Becht Hall lounge. Additional activities of these young ladies include taking social usage tests, planning programs on correct form, and preparing and serving a luncheon. 1 D. Benson, H. Brown, E. Money, M. Spleen, M.

Here at Clarion we have established a unique precedent by our yearly trip to the United Nations. The I. R. C. on our campus is one of a very small number of college groups through- out the United States who have sent a sponsored group to the UN ' s present home at Lake Success. We are now planning for our fourth trip; although this trip will first be open to club members, it is open to the school as a whole. Free discussions and panels form the basis of our regular meetings every other Tuesday night. Devaluation of the British pound, atomic energy control, and power of veto in the UN have been discussed in our informal gatherings thus far. Our international Relations Clubs are influential in their work to support and organize efforts to solve problems of a national and an international nature.

Here on the campus, our chapter of N. F. N. C. fulfills this purpose through- out the year by a well-balanced program of religious, intellectual, and social activities. This coeducational organization, providing for the spiritual and cul- tural heritage of Catholic students who are attending non-sectarian institutions of higher learning, is open to all Catholics on the campus. The enrollment this year totaled eighty-five members. This group attended Holy Communion in a body during the Christmas season, at Easter time, and on the last Sunday in May. In October, the Club sponsored a Hallowe ' en dance at the Catholic school for all club members. At the regular meetings held on alternate Wednesday eve- nings, the program committees appointed by the president of the organization, have arranged and conducted discussions on mixed marriages, lives of the saints, and the Holy Year.

It has become the spon- sor of the new Cook Forest Nature Trail. This two and one half mile trail, which begins at the mouth of Henry ' s Run on the River Road, has seventy-five signs along its course all of which were prepared by the club and erected by the Park authorities. The club is continuing the work begun last year of maintaining the attractiveness of this trail and of trying to make it the most interesting trail in the Forest. On October 23, the club gathered a Cook Forest, hiked over the Nature Trail, and inspected the condition of it. Those who wish to become members of the Outdoor Club make the acquaint- ance of those who belong, and then apply for admission. The present partici- pants wish to take in those who are interested in outdoor activities and those who would take an active part in the meetings and trips. The club ' s membership has been limited to twenty persons because of the difficulty of transporting a large group. Row 1 P. Schultz, C. Wagner, A. Bar- loli, B. Sherwood, B. Wood, J. Campbell, N.

The club ' s chief purpose is the publication of the monthly newspaper; its secondary aim is to serve as a valuable experience for prospective teachers who later may be required to direct the publication of high school papers. Membership requirements demand a certain proficiency in writing which is necessary in any type of newspaper work. A short test is given to all prospective members to judge their writing ability. The regular meetings consist of discussions of the current issues of The Call, issues of other exchange papers, and the assignments and aims of the coming publication. The study of other papers helps the editor and his staff to improve the quality of their own paper. Many good articles are received from the journalism class, and that class this year wrote and published the Christmas issue of the Clarion Call. The social activities for the club include the annual picnic at Cook Forest and a Christmas party. CALL STAFF B. Donaldson, L. M. Caimi, D. Curfn D. Hutter, P. Schultz, - - K. McMillen, E.

The committee mem- bers are chosen by election and represent all branches of the student body. This year the balloting resulted in the choice of these representatives: Paul Weibel, sen- ior class; Patricia Carr, junior class; Patricia Skinner, sophomore class; Emerson Perseghetti, freshman class; Phyllis Stewart, intersorority; Edward Brinkley, inter- fraternity; and Jeanne Fink, day room students. The faculty sponsors, Miss Stoke, Miss Spaller, Dr. Slick, and chairman, Dr. Gill, have neither spared time nor effort in their eagerness to meet every student ' s social needs. Featuring record dances, twilight dances, and square dances, the social com- mittee won an enthusiastic following among students and faculty. The evening dances sponsored by the combined efforts of sororities, fraternities, and the social committee were successful and enjoyable affairs. The class dances, planned and financed by the individual classes under the guidance of the class advisors, were in part the responsibility of the social committee. The extended current social program has proved very satisfactory, and the students wish to thank Dr. Gill and his committee for this year ' s pleasures, as they anticipate a greater expansion of activities in the immediate future.

This club aims to create and maintain a sportsman-like attitude of conduct among its members, and to extend this influence to all students on our campus. The immediate aim of this organization is to establish a rifle range in the base- ment of Davis Hall. This program is well underway and should be completed in the near future. The club ' s bowling team is high on the list of competitors and is expected to reach first place before the end of the second semester. High individual scorers in this ball rolling sport are Ed Lloyd with a 243 mark and Dave Trembach with a score of 236. One very enjoyable social event was an outdoor picnic at Cook Forest. At this gala affair the boys of 727 Davis Hall provided appreciated entertainment. A seasonal movie on deer hunting was shown to round out the program. Future plans include a movie on trout fishing and other social events. Interested students must be invited and accepted by the group before being admitted to membership in the Sportsmen ' s Club. p.

Our first program, a welcome for freshman students, was followed by panel discussions, talent programs, parties, speakers, and Christmas caroling. Our guest speakers for the year have been Rev. George Braun, Rev. Roy Blair, Rev. Everett Smail, Rev. OfFenhauser, and Mr. Dana Still. During the first semester, the S. C. A. and the Newman Club made a substantial contribution to the World Students Service Fund. This year the S. C. A. supplants the Y. W. C. A. and the Y. M. C. A. of other years. The in- creased interest shown in the new organization is heartening to its members and is, perhaps, indicative of a bright and useful future. This organization, unlike many clubs on the campus, holds regular weekly meetings. It is an accredited activity. ft i. J n T-iJ 1 lLJUdM , j jjjJali Row 1 N. Allison, M. Engman, G. Durbin, B.

The Senate meets bi-monthly with Dr. Chandler acting in an advisory capacity. The function of the Senate is to act as a governing board to disperse money which comes from tuition, books, and revenue from athletic events. These funds belong to the Students ' Cooperative Association and are equitably distributed to the numerous campus organizations. The Student Senates of the various State Teachers Colleges hold conferences each year. These conferences make it possible for each college Senate to have the benefit of the knowledge and experience of the others. This year ' s confer- ence was held at Shippensburg State Teachers College in October. Phyllis Stewart and Leonard Marinaccio were Clarion representatives. For the past few years the college has purchased for Senate members keys symbolical of their membership in the Student Senate. TELdP.k lQi Row 1 M. Nypover, J. Zimmerman, J. Weigel, E. Bova, M.

Not only are the dining room waiters eligible for membership, but integrated within the club are students who work in the dish room and kitchen. Membership is strictly on a voluntary basis. The purposes of the club are two-fold: to provide efficient and effective service as dining room workers, and to strengthen the bonds of friendship of members through social and recreational activities. At the bi-monthly meetings of this organization, problems are brought before the group and solutions are sought. A part of each meeting is devoted to enter- tainment, usually furnished by the talented members of the club. The highlights of the R. O. W. recreational activities are a combination dance and party held in connection with a holiday, such as Christmas or St. Valentine ' s Day, and the picnic held at Cook Forest in the spring of the year. Since its beginning and organization, under the very capable sponsorship of Mr. Stanley Lore, the R. O. W. has made impressive strides toward becoming one of the most popular clubs at Clarion State Teachers College. All good things come to those who wait. Qs tf$) flfi s 1 P. Stewart, D. Cribbs, P.

Estab- lishing and keeping good relations among the sororities are two of its main purposes. Early in the school year a Pan-Hellenic reception is held to introduce to the freshmen women the five social sororities and their respective members. Annually a spring dance is featured by the Pan-Hellenic Council. Last year the dance was attractively developed around a Greek motif with symbols of Greek mythology as decorations for the gymnasium. Music was provided by Bleach Perontoni and his orchestra. The yearly banquet, to which each sorority contributes favors and a portion of the entertainment, culminates the Pan-Hellenic ' s obligations for the year. In addition to its social responsibilities, the Pan-Hellenic Council makes a practical contribution to the expansion of sorority life on the campus by super- vising money-raising projects of different types.

During Polly ' s entire visit our campus fairly hummed with activity. Memorable out-of-town events include Ruth McElhattan ' s tea served in her beautiful home in Knox, and the special Delta Sig dinner and initiation at Shippenville. At this initiation we gained four splendid girls: Donna Dougherty, Mary Lou Doverspike, Betty Hay, and Gail Wagner. The Delts were very proud and happy when one of their girls, Lois George was chosen as Clarion ' s first Homecoming Queen. Money-raising projects for the year have included rummage sales in town and food sales in Becht Hall. In the spring we shall spend our usual celebrative weekend at Cook Forest. In August some members, as delegates, will attend the National Conclave in Chicago. Finally but importantly, we add that our sponsor, Miss Ethel Spaller, in her enthusiasm, interest, and loyalty, epitomizes all that is best in Delta Sigma Epsilon. To her efforts we owe our success; for efforts and loyalty we express our gratitude and devotion. Row 1 S. Marts, M. Van Winkle, J. Willson, L. Grant, R. Graff, M. Palo, M. Schler- berl, H.

The aim of this sorority is to provide congenial friends, social activities, and in- tellectual stimulation for all its sisters. To qualify for membership a girl must exhibit desirable personal traits of character as well as a record of a high level of academic achievement. Lambda Chi sisters may obtain sweaters and hats in the sorority colors of coral and green; emblematic pins may also be purchased by members who desire them. This socially-minded group engages in many activities throughout the year. Among the memorable events of this year, we recall the Pan-Hellenic dance, Pan-Hellenic banquet, a week end trip to Cook Forest, and numerous parties, lectures, and teas. Mrs. Graff is our efficient and enthusiastic sponsor. Her advice was par- ticularly helpful in the matter of selecting pledges and in the planning of the rush party held at the Onized Club early in November. The setting for the party rep- resented a modern night club with its typical entertainment and formal dinner. Active members assisted by visiting alumnae furnished the appropriate and amusing entertainment. Row 1 E. Brugh, B. Grossman, T. Jackson Row 2 O. Bower, K. Adams, D. Eury, V. Schultz, B.

As a result of our rush party, which revolved around the night clubbing theme, this sorority pledged ten new members: Elaine Bove, June Campbell, Evelyn Dunham, Edna Mae Keogh, Joanne Phillips, Louise Turner, Irene Vobrak, Evelyn Webster, Naomi Williams, and Kitty Zerbe. The purpose of the organization is best expressed in the motto Be kind, be brave, be true not only to thyself, but to others. Tangible evidence of this ideal is emphasized by the annual Christmas basket prepared for a needy family. This gift includes food for the main meal, candy, and presents to make someone ' s Yuletide season happier. Another good deed is the preparation of Christmas cards scrap books for children in the hospital. The social event of this time of year was a party given by the sponsors, Miss Bertha Nair and Mrs. John Bower, and a prominent patroness. Mrs. George Lewis, to the appreciative members. Other social activities include the Pan-Hellenic Dance, record dances, inter- sorority volleyball games and other informal get-togethers. 1 J. Hanna, D. Baker, G. Oakes, E. Walley, C. Baker, D.

The purposes of this organi- zation center mainly in the establishment of lasting friendly relationships among its sisters and in the development of high ideals of character in all its members. Activities of the year began with Sigma Trailways, a three day summer conference held at Camp Strawderman, Virginia. Representatives of Alpha Pi Chapter were Patsy Skinner, Helen Toth, and Freda Wilson. After meeting and renewing old friendships with national officers and fellow sisters, our girls came back just bursting with ideas for the coming year ' s activities. Our first outing was a picnic held for us by our patronesses, Mrs. Kuhner, Mrs. Long, and Mrs. Riley, at the Riley home. Other activities of the year con- sisted of a weiner roast, participation in intersorority volleyball, a Christmas party, Founder ' s Day banquet, and Senior send-off. Perhaps the most outstand- ing event of the year was our rush party, built around the theme of a wedding and a reception, in which our two capable sponsors, Miss Gamble and Miss Banner, took an active part. 1 A.

The highlight of Theta ' s social activities came on Tuesday, November 15, at which time a rush party was held with the theme centering around Thanksgiving. The social rooms of the local Methodist Church were appropriately decorated for this festive occasion. A lively hour of games and group singing followed by refreshments completed the program. As a result of this rush party Theta Alpha Lambda received three new members: Gertrude Clark, Thalia Schohn, and Cecelia Varrato.

The principal aim of this organization is the promotion of social contacts and well being among all fraternity brothers. Following the articles and by-laws of its constitution, the Interfrat Council has suc- cessfully stimulated the cooperation and friendliness among its member organi- zations. Membership in this Council is open to two members of each fraternity. The men who belong are listed as follows: Alpha Gamma Phi, Frank Pecora and Tony Mason; Alpha Phi Alpha, Donald Nogar and Charles Krepps; and Sigma Tau Gamma, Paul Weibel and Leonard Marinaccio. The major social event of the year is the Inter-fraternity Dance which is sponsored by Interfrat. This dance is an impressive, formal affair, and its splendor is awaited eagerly by all. The Inter-fraternity Council also controls such business as rush parties and silent week. Its rules and regulations are the determining factors of these im- portant events. 1 M. Nethercoat, R.

Membership in this fraternity is based upon three qualities: scholastic ability, personality, and character. On the evening of January 30, the Alpha Gammas held their annual rush party in Harvey Gymnasium. The entertainment at this gathering took the form of several movies, a song by Mike Helmintoller, a tap dancing number by Sal Russo, and some humorous stories told by Dr. Peirce. Other social activities included the organizing of a frat basketball team and the planning of an autumn stag party. This organization at present is the proud possessor of the Inter-fraternity Basketball Trophy. This award was given to Alpha Gamma Phi as a token of the best basketball team among the three social fraternities of Clarion State Teachers College. -_ , - -t ' J ' '  1 } CT ■ oggo, J. Bove, W.

During this time the members of the fraternity have been conspicuous in their leadership in student activities on the campus and in their high scholastic achievement. One of the primary aims of the fraternity is to aid in the development of the moral, ethical, and social principles, of the members so as to prepare them for group living. The motto of the fraternity, Socrates ' Te Scito , is the key. The members believe that in knowing themselves, they may better know and be tolerant of others. Throughout the course of a school year the activities of the fraternity are of a widely diversified nature; dances, movies, banquets, and discussions are all an integral part of the fraternity. The members have been noted for their whole- hearted participation in student affairs on the campus and have thus served as an example for the student body.

Snack parties, pledge parties, and the formal pledge banquet were important events sponsored by this fraternity. The traditional inter-fraternity dance marked the climax of Sigma Tau ' s social calendar. There are no established requirements for membership in this fraternity. New members are chosen by the local chapter with the consent of the province conclave. This year the annual province conclave was held in Buffalo, New York. At this meeting our representatives met with brothers from Indiana State Teachers College; Kent University, Ohio; Fairmont State Teachers College, West Virginia; and Buffalo State Teachers College to discuss common problems and to make plans for the future development of a greater Sigma Tau Gamma.

Marwick Mtpka f- dl (J mead t Alpha Psi Omega, a national honorary dramatic fraternity, was first brought to Clarion ' s campus during the year of 1936. This honorary fraternity, the largest in the world, has over one hundred chapters in the colleges and univer- sities of the United States and Canada. It was mainly through the efforts of Miss Marie Marwick that this splendid organization was first introduced on Clarion campus. Membership in this illustrious fraternity is composed of those College Players who have won distinction through exceptional participation in some phase of dramatic production, such as, acting, stage managing, and costuming. Member- ship in the Alpha Psi Omega is the coveted goal of every College Player. Because of the rigid entrance requirements and the fact that Alpha Psi Omega is a member of the Association of Speech Arts Fraternities of America, membership in this fraternity is an esteemed and commendable honor. 1 H.

Selection of each student is based on his scholarship and his worthy participation in the campus activities fostered by our college. This honor serves as a recommendation for these deserving students to the business world and offers a placement service for them when they graduate. Each year the biographies of the selected students appear in the publication entitled, Who ' s Who Among Students in American Colleges and Universities. The attainment of membership in Who ' s Who is a fine achievement for any student, and we congratulate the following new members chosen from our college this year: Thomas Barratt, John Bitner, William Mahoney, Barbara McMichael, Phyllis Slaugenhaupt, John Taylor, James Irwin, Harry Kincaid, John Mellon, Jennifer Messier, and Eleanor Rock. mm .... tmontt s v ffN % -v J4c omecomim Q ueen an d L c ovin For the first time in the history of Clarion State Teachers College the Home- coming Celebration was presided over by a Queen. The candidates were nominated by the football team and voted on by the entire student body. Frank Lignelli, captain of the 1949 Eagles, crowned our first queen during the intermission at the Homecoming Dance. The girl who was selected by the student body as being the one which they felt best qualified to represent our college as Homecoming Queen was a senior girl, very well known on the campus and in the town itself, Miss Lois George. A Court of attendants, composed of Jennifer Messier, Jane Lemp, Lee Grant, Phyllis Stewart, Lena Staley, Shirley Marts, Joan Gifford, and Ann Bastress, all of whom vied with Lois for the title of Queen of Clarion State Teachers College Homecoming , added charm and beauty to the ceremony. arm fju ONE GOOD TURN DESERVES ANOTHER PATRONIZE OUR ADVERTISERS Compliments of BROOKVILLE CREAMERY PRODUCTS CO.
