Drown sorrow tn a cup ot w lne,

Then wherefore in these merry dt\,Yer
Should we, I pray, be duller?
Ho, let us sing some roundelays,
To make our mirth fuller.
And whilst thus inspired we· sing.
Let all the str eets wtth echoes ring,
Woods .and hllls and everythll)g
Bear witness we are merry.

president on December 3 of a mel)'lbershlp committee o! Sally Hinton,
Robert Mayock, and Ruth Glbbons. It

and especially to advertise the tact
that stlidents who are not. enrolled in
a course in p01iticaJ ecience may neverthelees participate in the . a.cti viUes of
the club. The committee also will em•
phasize the tact that the club has

The special meeting held on WednE"sday of this week was In the nature ot
an experiment. Heretofore the club
has been embarrassed owing 'to the
dlftlculty of finding a suitable time for
meeting. If the hour ot 3: 30 on Wedn esday afternoons proves to be more

.Apart from the question of the

The Fall Qf The Lodu
In the qu iet of t he e vening
When the barber's -lights were gleaming
Came a knock upon the door,
A knock he never heard before.
"Oh, e:lr! Oh, si r !" A sweet voice .c ried.
As Chuckie Connors came In side,

wm· you for me a favor do

And c ut away my brownish hue?"
And so into the chair he went,
A man with more than grave intent,
And from his head there soon was
s h orn ·
A mother's pr ide ot Just that morn.
''Oh, .tha:nk you, sir,'' Our Chuckie
cried,
"But I'm afraid to go outside
You sec the birds th at therein n est
must find another J)laC:e ot r es t. "
And now before the echoo l he stands
There ·never was a. braver man
·
A man who thought It was a prank
To leave his head 'V!'lth'out a hank.

We have taken it upon ourselv~t:i to
write this letter at the req uest ot

connection with thi s society is an example of onfl of the weak-minded jokes

mentioned above. It Is not our purl)O.sc,
however, to otter any explanation tor
the origin of the Si,gma Nu Sifema or
to defend it, since w e care not tn the

The Art Of Pamphleteering
(Continued from Page J.)
l1:1 a masterpi ece of compact a nd skilfully presented material Fepresent1ng

h eact of this column eeem to i h e reviewer outstandln~.
Those who have not yet learned that
Mr. Secretary Wallace is something
more than a polltlclan, and that he re veals some of the most thoughtful arid
painstaking statesmanship to be found
In any public figure of the present, can
not delay In ma·kln.g his acquai n tance.
The pamphlet, 11 America Must ·Choose'',
is eerious and sober to a -degree. It
ought, if w idely disseminated and extensively perused, to go tar to direct.
public •POiicy ot the United States on
the ha.Sis of .. intelllgence. It ts, or can
be (dependi n g upon th e extent to which
It actually .Is read), a landmark in the
formative influences now at work tn
the present period of change, ot r ef1ection, and ot Cll,lculat"lon. As tor llterary
style, there ts solllethtn.g here ot . dec id ed excellence, quite unlike the
wearisome ness ot the utterances of
most public figures, ot this or of any
other daY.
Professor Blakeslee's contribution to
the se ries is entitl ed to r~~k with Secreta.ry Wallace's. It ts the scholarly
work. ot a n acknowJedged scholar, but
it is designed for the lay reader. • To
say that the subject ot his pamphlet,
"Confl icts ot Polley In the Far East", ts
of more than ordinary importance for
the American public ls trite. To say
that the pref!entatlon Is as excellent
as the :cmbJect warrants is to set this
pamphlet apart from most ot the current output on this theme. Scholars
will derive nothing new from BlQ.kesle.e's treatment except In organization,
and in literary style of presentation.
But the public has need tor Just the
service th1a 9:cholar renders, In fur nl s hlng an unimpassioned cl"tttcal stOdy
ot matters traughi with serious conse ..
quences. It 1, no accident that his
pami&gt;hlet has . created a - small eeneation In Japan, wh ere It ls r eceived with
mlngled emotions, prlnclpally adverse.
These two pamphlets are due to ex :

WHAT BUCKNELL OFFERS

WELCOME FRESHMEN!

Education is intangible. It is not a condition at
which you will arrive after four years of colie~c.
It is a dynamic quality which sets the educated rer•
son apart from the rest of mankind, but .at the same
time gives that person greater sympathy and under•
standing• Education provides the in&lt;lividual with
hroader interests and offers a means of satisfying
those interests. It is a leaven which kecrs men and
women constantly alert at new ideas, symp.ith.:Li.: tu
the needs of others an&lt;l dissatisfic&lt;l with the imrer·
fcctions of our world.
Those of you who arc this year entering the Jun·
ior College of Bucknell University will be 1-(iwn full
opportunity to attain high srholastic stan&lt;lards. It is
my hope that you will not 1-w: ~ati~ficd with !l('hnlas•
tic attainments alone, but that you will acquire a
vision of something · beyond aca&lt;lcmic requircmcnts,
and will emerge from your two years with us, finer
and stronger persons..
Yon will fin&lt;l that vour teachers arc travclin!( the
same path that you travel. To thi:m it is wdl worn,
.and the way is frequently distinct : to you the way
will be less clear. To both there will be much that is
new, and the &lt;liscovery of new things together should
develop those common interests that arc the basis of
lasting friendship.
Remember that education is not an end in itsdf,
hut is the opening of new doors, and the enjoyment
of new vistas. It is the hope of those of us who will
work with you that you may take much frnm us
that will be of worth to you, and that you may leave
something with us that will mable us to offer more
to those who follow you.
-Eugene S. Farley

The members of the Sophomore Class cordially
welcome you to Bucknell University Junior College.
Those of us who have had the experience of being
strangers in a foreign place know what it means .. •
strange customs, new faces, to say nothing of the en•
vironmcnt, which may perplex you initially.
You meet new people and a desire arises to cultivate their friendship- A mutual understanding is
brought about, Jue. we believe, to the strong hond of
hrctherhood and good feeling existing among us. We
hope that you freshmen may sense this spirit of co·
operation and e411ality during your first few weeks
of cl:t!s.'lCS and activities.
I am sure that our associations will meet with suc•
cc:;s ::ncl that ;-ou will be able to adapt yourselves tn
your new environment and find a happy and useful
rlacc for yourselves at the Junior College. We wish
you a very pleasant and successful year with us.
-J. V. Gallagher

FRESHMAN RECEPTION
With flushed faces, hearts beating a double tempo,
and rabbit-like timidity, the freshman class proudly
presented their parents and themselves to a welcom·
ing faculty and stud~nt body on the night nf &amp;·pt·
ember 9th, in the College auditorium. With a little
of the shyness worn off through the endeavor of thr
faculty and students, the freshmen, with their rar·
ents, settled themselves comfortably in their scats and
enjoyed a varied and appropriate piece of entertainment. Herbert Lloyd led the assembly in college
songs- Following this, the glee club rendered four
numbers which were well received. A short and
pointed address by the Director, and refreshment:;
served hy the sophomores and facuity cmicu a plc.i·

The Buc~nell Beacon hopes to sheJ light on the
future plans nf students and faculty and to prove a
reliable guide to college opinion, as any sclf•rcsp:·ct·

pr,1;,h.1ct of many willing h~nrk Not least amonl! the
contrihutions is J. T. Mayock's original Jrawinii for
our title.
·
It is our hope to puhlish at least twelve issues dur•
ing the college year. To achieve this goal we shall
need active co-operation from all who an: interested
in college journalism .. • good writers. !,?OOd report·

OUR JUNIOR COLLEGE
In 1933 Bucknell University, located at Lewis·
burg, realizing the need for a Junior College in Luz•
erne County, petitioned the State Council of Edu•
cation for approvai of the estabiisi11m:11L of ~u~ '.1 ,111
institution. This was granted on June 9, 1933. The
organization of the new division was undertaken by
Dr. Frank G. Davis, and Dr. Tohn H. Eisenhauer
who formerly had been- Profc~r of Educatio!", and
Director of the Summer Session and Exti:,1sion at
Lewisburg, came here as Director of the ,1ew institu·
tion. The Junior College hcgan wv1 k in September
1933 at its present loc:itit,n- Jn Janua.ry 19'.\6 Dr.

. Already the Junior College has enabled hundreds
ot students of Wyoming Valley to secure their first
two years of college training without the added cost·
of study away from homi:. The College has also made
it possible for adults of the community, as well as
Y?U•~g people, to stuJy one or more subjects of spe•
~•al 111terest to them, some without thougr.~ of work•

University Junior College has aimed to raise the
average cultural kvd of ·the community.

"OUR NOBLE SELVES"

Introducing Betty Tonks! Megan Betty Tonks was
born in Staffordshire, England, on February 12,
1917. She tame to this country when she was seven
years old and returned to England for a visit at
twelve years of age. At Forty Fort High School she
played in the orchestra, was a member of the Library Club, of the Choral Club, and a member of
the cast in the Senior play. Betty graduated holding
the highest average in the class of 1935. Last year,
as well as continuing to hold a fine scholastic record,
she was vice-president of the Beta Gamma Chi and
secretary of the Freshman Class. ·She took an active
interest in both the Choral Club and the Dramatics
Club. This year Betty is president of the Choral
Club, treasurer of Beta Gamma Chi, · and one of the
Student Council representatives on the Social Activities Committee.

JOSEPH GALLAGHER
It was on the seventh d·ay of October, 1917, that
a great event in the history of Bucknell took place,
for it was then that Joseph Gallagher first saw the
light of day. His early childhood was spent in many
cities though he lived most of the time in Buffalo, re;
turning to Hanover to begin his education.
He was the leading man in the dramatic produc,
tion at Hanover High School from whence he grad;
uated with the class of '35. While in high school h~
was the class treasurer for three years, and here it
might be mehtioned that during that time Joe
handled more than $7,500 without a cent error. Foi
this noteworthy feat he received special commenda~
tion on graduation night. He also participated in
sports, writing a column on it for the school news,
paper and playing with ·the 'varsity baseball and basketball teams.

Buc~NELL BEACON

PICNIC A SUCCESS

NEW FACULTY

lf one were to jmlge the su.:.:css of a pi.:ni.: hy
the attemlance anJ hy the gL\()J timc haJ by all, the
first picnic hckl by the Junior College at Camp Aca•
hela on SaturJay, October 3rJ was an outstanding
suc,:css. The hays were oc.:upicJ with baseball, soft•
hall, volley hall, football, anJ Jeck tennis. Dr. (De•
maggio) Tasker provcJ to hf.- the outstanJing long
distance hitter of the Jay, and with his exceptional
ahility as a broken field runner in the pigskin game,
he was chosen the outstanding athlete of the day.
The girls and the faculty spent the Jay ;:laying deck
tennis anJ wandering about the cain:,. There was
only one problem and that a great one-water. With
parched tongues and dry stomachs we wandered
over a seemingly Sahara Dr!'t'rt in search of water,
but to no avail. Suddenly on the Horizon there ap·
peared the Facuity members with steaming hot ket·
tlcs of coffee. Ru•hir,~ towards them with out·
stretched arms and empty cups, we found that paper
cups arc gre:it conductors of heat. But hy dunking
four or five doughnuts, which were free, into the
coffee, the heat was absorbed sufficiently to allow
us to partake of this delicious beverage. Ice Cream,
which was supplied by the school, also added tn our
indigestion. To finish an otherwise perfect day Nor·
man Tractenberg decided to take a stratosphere
flight to investigate conditions there, hut a blankt:i.
was the nearest thing to an aeroplane so he took off
in this. The day c:ime td a perfect end with the
group singing songs and ending with the Alma
Mater. As the group left the grounds many voices
could be heard which praised highly the success of
this first event of the year.
W.T.

I wish tu in:roduci- tu the student body the latest
adJition tu our faculty. Miss Sanginliano. Miss
Sangiuliano replaceJ Mr. Keller as &lt;l:amatic coach.
She !!ra&lt;luated from the Syracuse University with
:t· Bachelor of Oral English degree, Bachelor of Art~
degree and Master of Arts in Drama. At Syracuse
Miss Sangiuliano worked with plays and piayers
from every angle. She has taught at her alma mater
cla~cs in Appreciation of Drama, Stage Technique,
and Make-up.
Each summer for the past six seasons she has returned to the University to be member of the Sum•
m,·r Sch0ol Players of Syracuse.
We know Miss Sangiuli?.no much better, however,
for her work in the Children ·s Theatre which she
has conducted for the past two years and plans to
continue this year. Miss Sangiuliano tentatively

OUR CAMPUS WIRE

A FIVE~RING CIRCUS

At the invitation of Dr. Crook, we embrace _this
opportunity of dashing off a column concerning the
activities of former Junior College students who are
now on the campus at Lewisburg. In passing, your
correspondent would like to express his pleasure
over the revival of a Junior College newspaper. May
its existence be longer than that of the old " Bison
Stampede," whose destiny he helped to direct two
years ago.
The Dean's List (or Honor Roll) of the University for the last semester of last year was graced by
the names of many former J. C. students. The list
was headed by Julius Altman, a senior in the Liberal
Arts course, who spent his first two years of college
at the Junior College. Other J. C. names on the list
follow:
Dora Elleni, a senior in the Liberal Arts course,
who is business manager of Cap and Dagger, the
campus dramatics organization. Miss Elleni is a member of the Phi Mu sorority. Edward Hartmann, a
senior in the Liberal Arts course, who is president of
Delta Phi Alpha, the honorary German fraternity .
Albert Rohlfs, a senior in the Electrical Engineering course, who is president of Beta Epsilon Sigma,
honorary engineering fraternity . Mr. Rohlfs is a
member of Theta Upsilon Omega fraternity.
Joseph Salsburg, a senior in the Liberal Arts
course, who is connected with Cap and Dagger and
is a member of Theta Alpha Phi, honorary dramatics
fraternity, and of Kappa Phi Kappa, professional
education fraternity. Ambrose Saricks, a senior in
the Liberal Arts course, who is president of Kappa·
Phi Kappa, and a member of Delta Phi Alpha and
Theta Alpha Phi honorary fraternities, and of the
social fraternity Phi Kappa Psi.
Eleanor Scureman, a senior in the Liberal Arts
course, who is also a member of Delta Phi Alpha,
Theta Alpha Phi and of the Pi Beta Phi sorority.
Anthony Yodis, a senior in the Engineering course,
,n ember of Beta Epsilon Sigma, and Pi Mu Epsilon,
'1onorary mathematics fraternity. Joseph Lord, a
senior in the Liberal Arts course, who is a member
of Cap and Dagger. Joseph Duddy, a senior in the
Chemical Engineering course.
A glance at this list will show that J. C. students
who transferred to the campus a year ago have, in
;hat year, firmly established themselves in the life at
Bucknell. It is pleasing to note, also, that Junior Col,
ege students who came to the campus for the first
·ime this fall are already finding places in campus

The Political Science class staged a five-ring circus
last week. The two major political parties and three
of the minor ones were represented. Each student
chose a party to represent. Some of the braver members volunteered, often against their own personal
beliefs, to. speak for the minority parties. Among the
comic highlights the following were notable. A Re,
publican Sophomore, seriously tackling the farm
question, discovered at the close of his speech that
he had been reading the Democratic platform. A
Freshman, herself a Democrat but speaking for the
Lemke-Union Party, was so devastatingly " impartial" that not a soul present felt like voting for her
"platform" when she got through with it! A Republican Sophomore, attempting to rebut Judge on
the ticklish topic of Tariffs, came to grief over "sus,
stisticks". A Democrat declared in his haste that the
Democratic Party had been responsible for establishing the Spoils System . . . he recovered, too late,
to say that he meant the Civil Service. "Hank"
Peters provided the act that brought down the
house. He went back into the dark ages of Ancient
Greece and proved that the present Communist Party was really fathered by such "intellectual giants"
as Plato, Zeno et al. After that tour de force the
rest of the session was an anti-clima·x.
on the technical side of the production. Indeed, production of the play would be impossible, were it not
for the part J. C. students are filling in it.
Seven men and one woman who transferred from
the Junior College to the campu's this fall have
pledged three social fraternities and one sorority.
Irma Hewitt has pledged Pi Beta Phi sorority. Al
Rusin, star infielder on the J. C . baseball team last
year, has pledged Sigma Alpha Epsilon, and David
Williams has joined Kappa Delta Rho. Phi Kappa
Psi was the social fraternity chosen by five former
Junior Collegians-Ralph Ford, Mason Baldwin,
James Ramsey, Robert Mayock, and Robert Renville.
Bucknellians on the campus are looking forward
to the Home-Coming Day game with Villanova on
Saturday, October 31. J. C. men and women now
on the campus would iike to see a big turnout of
present Junior College students at this game and
extend a cordial invitation to their friends in Wilkes,
Barre to visit the campus during the weekend of
October 30.
Best of wishes and lots of luck to the Junior Col,
lege for a successful year from
Your Lewisburg Correspondent.

CLUB NOTES

The Junior College Pre-Medical Club met on
Thursday, October 1st, to draw up plans for the
coming year. The program includes triQs to hospitals
in Philadelphia and New York, where operations
will- be witnessed. Prominent local doctors wil'I be invited to speak before the Club on special subjects and
inspection of local hospitals is also contemplated .
The following officers were elected for the year :
President, Joseph Boyle; vice-president, John Mundrey; secretary, George Sauer; treasurer, Robert
Bohn. Mary Ciesla and Andrew O'Malley were
elected to represent the Club on the Social Committee of the College.
The German Club will hold its first meeting
Tuesday, October 13. Intermediate and advanced
German students are urged to join.
Professors Schuyler and Hall are directing the
Engineering Club. Field trips are planned as soon as
the club organizes.

ASSEMBLY SPEAKERS
On Thursday, October 1st, Professor Leroy Bug,
bee, teacher of history at Wyoming Seminary, spoke
in Assembly about the main issues of the presidential campaign. "As far as I can see," said Professor
Bugbee, "the main object of the campaign is to cloud
the issues." The real issues, in his opinion, are: the
farm program, unemployment, unionization of
American labor, the national budget, and social security.
Professor Bugbee characterized Landon as a
"homely", honest person who believes in economy.
He comes from a farm state. Professor Bugbee considered this fact as important, for the election can
not be won without the Middle West. He spoke of
Roosevelt as an excellent showman, an intriguing
and dynamic personality.
The Democrats favor the American government ·
taking an active part in industry while the Republi,
cans disapprove. The Republicans oppose federal social security. Roosevelt supports the unionization of
American labor, but Landon dodges the issue.

LITTLE THEATRE DIBECTOR
Mr. Hendrik Booraem,

new director of the
Wilkes-Barre Little Theatre, was Assembly speaker
on Tuesday, October 6. Those students who attended
were favorably impressed with his speech.
The young people in America, declared Mr.
Booraem, are being weaned away from "flesh and
blood" shows, because of the powerful influence of
the motion picture. Mr. Booraem analyzed the dif,
ferent appeals of the motion picture and the stage;
his intention was not to condemn the motion picture. "One supplements the other," Mr. Booraem
said. "To appreciate one, we must know both."
The motion picture's appeal must come from
spectacular settings and dynamic action. Legitimate
drama must rely on emotional and mental intensity,
and subtlety.
One cannot enjoy a drama presented on the s:reen
as fully as one presented on the stage, contends Mr.
Booraem. The two-dimensional screen checks an in,
dividual's emotional response, because the spectator
realizes the actors are only images. The average per,
son can experience the same emotions as the actors,
when he attends a stage presentation, for he realizes
the characters are really there.
Mr. Booraem spoke of the work of the Little
Theatre as recognized throughout the United States
among the six Little Theatre groups that are capable of faithfully producing any Broadway play.

(Continued from Page 1.)

While in Bucknell Junin r College he continued
his political career, being elected treasurer of the
Freshman Class and in June was nominated for and
received the office of President of the Sophomore
Class.
Last year he was an honor student and won his
letter swimming with the 'varsity team . This year
he intends taking part in debating and in the activities of the Pre-M ed and German Clubs.
Joe moreover , is a Second Lieutenant in the Mar,
ine Reserves and spent last summer at the Reserve
Officers Training Camp at Quantico, Virginia.
He lays claim to being Bucknell's A N o. 1 Woman Hater but after hearing from many students
the story of Joe's famous summer romance and other
affairs of the heart, his boast seems to be an error.

Oswald Garrison Villard is to speak at a special

Mr. Villard received his M . A . degree from H ar ,

HALLOWE'EN

CLUB ANNOUNCES CONTEST

Hallowc'cn is a curious mixture of classical mythology anJ Christian superstition. It is on.: of the
hclicis that dominated the religion of the Middle
Ages, especially that of the Anglo-Saxons.
In England the peasants went about on Hallowe'en tlar from hnusc to house singing songs anti
repeating v.:rscs. If their cntcr'tainment was •well
receivctl, the pea5ants were given foodstuffs for a
comr.:on feast. If their entertainment was bad,
they were given foodstuffs also, but in a different
manno:r.
On the night of Hallowe'en the family gathered
about the firepla.:e to tell stories of atlventurc and
supernatural beings. As the fire died out each
member of the family would throw into the fire •
place a stone marked by themselves. At tlaybreak
if anything hatl happened to any stone, that perwn
to whom it he!oni.:.:d would suffer during the ye;1r
to come.
Today Hallowe'en is marked by broken fences,
chalk marks, ~mashed windows, missing furniture,
hou~t: lu l,oux: .:anvassi:.g :md rm•: dyi~m. Much nf
the okl snirit has been lost in the dim past, but
some of the superstition has carried on.
W . T.

The Dramatics Club has decided to adopt a new
name for its organizatbn . In order to have a.
variety of names to select from, they have decided to promote a contest in which the entire
student body can particiJ'ate.
The final selection will be made for its original•
ity an&lt;l relationship to the whole Jr:-.matic group.
A desirable award will be given to the person
suggesting the most unique name.
Entry blanks may be secured at the office. The

day, November 2nd. Any number of entries may
he submitted by one contestant. All entries must
be in by Friday noon, November 6.
In order to create an objective and incentive
for the Freshmen interested in Dramatics, the
Sophomore members of the Dramatics Club have
drawn up a tentative system of merits whereby
Freshmen can obtain membership in the DramatJcS
Club.
As soon as the required nuanber of merits is
secured. a group of Freshmen will be initfotetl. It
is planned to have the initiations take place several
times throughout the year. Freshmen who desire
to be admittcci with the first quota should start

ASSEMBLY SPEAKERS
MISS HE:..EN HUNT

Mi .. Hrlrn Hunt. on the faculty of Judson Col·

legc, r·,mgoon University, Burma, and daughter ot
former President Hunt of Bucknell, addressed As·
Sl'mbly on October 13.
Education in Burma, said Miss Hunt, was neither
compulsory nor free. Many languag..s and diverse
racial groups complicate the situation. Despite this
fact, and the native desire for greater use of the
vernacular, English is the only language used from
the fourth grade up. In Rangoon University the
same method is found as in Oxford and Cambridge.
The separate colleges, of which JudS&lt;,;n ·is one, pro•
vidc the te.iching, while the University examines
the students at the close of the sophomore and
senior years and grants all degrees. There are no
"maketup" examinations, and a student wl:,:, fails
in part of his field must take the whole ficltl over
again.
In view of the diversity of racial groups and re·
ligious bel.iefs the University of Rangoon offers an
exceptional opportunity for learning how to discard
prejudices. N~tiunalism, said Miss Hunt, was a
very strong influence in ilurma and the students
of Rangoon were naturally considerably affected hv
that spirit.

THE BUCKNELL BEACON

PAGAN PRIEST
He knew the majesty of temples to the sun,
The set of temples' shadows when the day was done.
He breathed the heavy, sleepy air of rare incense,
And here he lies in eminence.
And in his rigid, claw-like fingers holds a gem
Embossed and cut to seem a bud without a stem.
Here all around the dim-lit tomb stand silent shapes
Of grinning, guardinglapes. ~

OUR CAMPUS WIRE

FACULTY SECRETS

Th~ campus of Bt:cknell University at Lewis·
burg this year has assumed a distinct, Junior College atmosphere. There are over fifty former J. C.
students and four former J. C . professors now on
the campus. Professors Stillman, Godcharles, Goh.I,
and McCrosscn have joined the faculty and once
again have many Wilkes-Barre students in their
clas;;cs. But this Junior College atmosphere is far
more than merely a matter of nui,1bers.

The professors in the Junior College seem to be
ordinary peopl~, (Is that a statement of fact or a
dirty dig? Editors) hut beneath their outward appearances lurk som ... astounding peculiarities.
Dr. Tasker, who teaches .1 c0ursc in Health,
hardly ever wears a hat, cv:::. b the cok!-:st •.v~?thPr.
A ca.;e of do as I say, -not as I do, ch, Doctor?
Mr. Disque's hobby is dogs. He has two little
dogs that look like German sausages....you know,
dachshunds.
The absent-minded professor can be found in
:h:: J'..!~inr r.nll..,~e on Mondays and Fridays. Pro•
fessor Godcharles, from the Campus, buys tickets
for banquets, and then buys his dinner in a rest:rnrant.
Dt. Crook can't enjoy life in a metropolitan sky,
scraper every clay, but he can fix up an attic room
to resemble a penthouse.
Who would think that Dr. Churchill would have
any interest other than English? We found out
that he delights in refinishing old furniture.

Cast a glance at the personnel of the next Cap
and Dagger piay for p1uu[ uf :!,i~ ::::t:::::::~t . Th.director of the play (Noel Coward's 'The Young
Idea, scheduled for production on Saturday, December 5) is Joseph Salshurg, who is still rcr.eivin~
praise for his interpretation of the difficult role of
Prince Sirki (Death) in the Fathers' Day pl:ty,
"Death Takes A Holiday." Joseph Lord, another
star of the Bucknell Junior College Players, is as•
sistant director. One of the leading roles is being
played by Elr.anor Scureman, whose work in "'Three
Cornered Moon," last year's Spring Festival play.
is still being favorably commented upon.
Miss
Scureman was president of the Junior College dra,
matics society. Also in the cast a:e James Ramsey,
fresh from the Junior College this year, and Am brose Saricks, a member of the pioneer freshman
class at the Wilkes-Barre institution. Robert Ren•
ville, another of this year's batch from the Junior
Cc.liege, is head of the publicity department for the
r,lay. Dora Elleni and Frank Alexander arc handiing the business end of the production.
A further note of interest is that this play, "The
Young Idea," would have been presented at the
Junior College three years ago, if the Bucknell
Players had not run short of the necessary cash.
Now, this is a bit of confidential information. It
was the result of the efforts of the Junior College
students who were connected v.ith the ill-starred
production of three years ago and who were disappointed at the "folding up" of the play at WilkesBarre t!lat made possible the campus production of
this Coward drama.
·
We hope to sec many more Junior Collegians
in Cap and Daj?ger next year. Best wishes to Miss
Sangiuliano and the J. C. dramatics organi;;ation
in their work this year.
Two of the Juuiur College students, now seniors
on the campus, hold office in the honorary Engine•
ering Society the Beta Epsilon Sigma. Albert
Rohlfs is president this year and Anthony YoJis
secretary. Rohlfs and three other Junior College
men at Lewisburg, William Bciswinger, I. R. Schumal,cr and Freas Semmer, all hold positions a~
Physics Assistants at the University.

The Thanksgiving Dance will be sponsored by
the Beta Gamma Chi, with Bideth Davies as general chairman, assisted by the Social Activities Com•
mittee headed by Andrew O'Malley. The follow•

Rev. Fred M . Sellers of Shavertown spoke to
over a hundred students in Assembly on N ovember 10. Mr. Sellers, who spent some time in a German prison camp during the war, most realistically

inside view of the horrors of war.

ARMISTICE DAY
"Jf .you wish for peace prepare for war." This
was the psychology practiced by many nations up
to present times. The more loi;::ical slogan seems
to be "If you want peace prepare for peace." But
how shall we prepare for thi11 peace? Education
of our people is the most forceful method of ·advo·
eating and spreading the peace movement. One of
the means of educating our people is through our
schools and colleges. It is essential that we influence
the youthful mind toward pc:icc and away from
war. However, our institution of learning, in which
these young minds arc being molded, did not in
anyway celebrate Armistice &lt;lay. The day on which
the GREAT WAR ended. The day which sym•
bolizes the hopes of men that from that day on•
ward there should be 110 more strife hctween men
in which blood should he shed and lives lost.
Another way in which we can educate our peo·
pie toward peaceful trends is hy supporting the
peace movements. We may not agree with some
of the methods used hy our peace organi:a!ions to
'bring about this ideal, but we shouh.l cooperate with
them. Perhaps a parade isn't the hcst means of
spreading a peace movement, but Bucknell as a
bocly should have cooperated. It shouk1 have
proved t.o the people of Wilkes-Barre that the youth
of this vicinity arc in favor of peace and ;m: goin~
to DEMAND it in the future.

"To Dance or Not To Dance"
Do not fret,
You cannot get
The girls of France
To c0me tu the Dance.
But ours will!
--Elsa Feigenbaum
DEAR EDlTO!lS:
Since the last dance the question has become
rromincnt :is to whether it is correct for the girls
of Bucknell Univcrsity Junior College to ask their
gentlemen friends to the college dances.
The girls argue that it is 11ot ladylike for them
to ask men. If this be the case thc girls of Vassar,
Wclblcy, and Misericordii ,uc not ladylike. For
while the gir~5 of thc.~e colleges do not m~ke _it a
rcgu1ar pr:ict;cc to ::;k the :-:1c:1, ~t cc~t~!~ t!m':'"~

during thc year they assert their prerogative in ex•
tending invitations to j'Oung men. But the girls
of Bucknell say that tl,c young gentlemen whom
they would hring will not know each other. We
might add that the men of the college often bring
into their groups girls who have previously not
been acquainted. These girls do not seem to be
violently Jisturbcd by this fact. It might be sug•
gestcd that the girls get together and arrange' dances
to he exchanged within the group . . We do not
believe th~:: the men whom they bring -.vould seri•
ousl}' object to their doing this.
Many of the men of Bucknell escort to the dances
girls who do not attend our school. These girls have
been very kind to the Junior Coliege men in in•
vitinl,'! them to parties and outside dances, and it
would be considered impolite not to respond with
return invitations to these same girls.
Remember girls, only 37 days until Jan. 1 and
your leap year opportunities will be gone for
another four years. So-"Gathcr ye escorts while
ye may."
-Andrew O'Malley
--➔----EDITORS OF THE
BEACON:
In answer to the arguments advanced by APdrcw
O'Malley, I wish to present the opinion of the
girls. The girls have no serious objection tn inviting gmtlemen friends to the school danc:es if,
and only if, they are not students at the Junior
College. If any objection has been voiced by the
girls it is certainly not bccau!IC they feel it woulJ
be unconventional, but because they believe that
friend from outside would have comparatively few
acquaintances and consequently be unable to ex•
change many dances since this custom has always
hccn handled by the men of the College.
As for inviting men from the Junior College,
which has been suggested by some, we absolutely
hclievc that we h,1ve not. the conventional right.

BY FREIGHTER TO EUROPE

•

Doctor

and
Mrs.

Churchill

•

After a hard winter trying to im part some know!,
edge to Bucknell students, Dr. and Mrs. C hurchill
sailed for Europe the day after Convocation. T o
heighten the adventure they travelled on a freighter,
with some t welve other passengers . . . .all officially
signed on as "crew."
A delightful crossing brought them close to their
port of A ntwerp, but a dockworkers' strike in that
city compelled them to disembark at Flushing and
proceed to Antwer p by train. While in Belgium
they visited Brussels, W aterloo, t he Belgian Ardennes and Bruges, a quaint old place fi lled with canals
and high-arched bridges.
When they entered France they found a general
strike in progress. They saw idle factories { rom
w hich the red flag was fl ying, and cafes in which
the employees had shut themselves, on a "stay-in"
strike. " Every Frenchman" remarked Dr. C hurch ill, "seems to regard A merican travelers the way

cannibals do a missionary, as sent from H eaven ex,
pressly to be set upon and devoured" . . . . fro m
which we gathered that if you wish to travel in
France at a reasonable expense you must be wary
and speak French!
In Rheims, the Churchills were impressed by the
great evidence of war destruction. A s Rheims is
the center of the champagne district they were af,
forded a· marvellous opportunity to see the wine
cellar of Pommery and G reno. This consisted of
sixteen miles of cellars hewn out of the solid limestone and filled with millions of bottles. By good
fortun e they happened t o visit the Palace of V er,
sailles on the one Sunday in the month when the
fa mous fountains were in full action.
In London, Dr. and Mrs. Churchill saw the parade of the King's G uard, on the very day when a
fan atic attempted to shoot the King. At O xford
they enjoyed an outdoor performance of Lewis C arroll's " Alice in W onderland." The setting for the
play was a lake with shrubbery as background. At
inter mission ice-cream and soup was sold. (Better
refer to the play at this point!)
In Holland the national costume was more prevalent than elsewhere. In O xford the travelers
found that their rooming-house . . .. one of the approved lodgings fo r students. . . .had no bath-tub
or electricity, and even the gas line was out of
order! Which might seem to imply t hat if "cleanliness is next to godliness" an O xford education
enables a student to get along without either.
Our illustration portrays Dr. and Mrs. Chu rch ill in Dutch costume. We wonder if it was taken
aft er their visit to Rheims?

It is gratifying that at least one Junior College
student enjoys writing poetry that is worthy of
publication in the Beacon. A further opportunity
for would-be poets to get their work into print is
offered by Buc~nell Verse, a booklet of poems by
Bucknell University students, published each spring
on the Campus by the English Department. The
Junior College Librarian will be glad to show prospective poets a file of back numbers of Buc~nell
Verse. Student poets who wish to contribute should
notify Dr. Churchill as soon as possible.

TYPE TALK NO. 3

STYMIE
Stymie, another modern face available to
clients of The Dallas Post, is closely related to
the Bernhard Gothic of last month's type talk,
except that Stymie has exaggerated serifs,
whereas Bernhard is sans serif. Such flat letters as Stymie are called Egyptian types because British soldiers once carved such letters
on their s~3: chests during a colonial campaign.

CLASSROOM IDYLL
The class, like sheep, followed the leader and
settled themselves in the back row. The large lee•
turc room with its empty chairs looks like the work
of a gargantuan dentist. They gap foolishly and
vacantly at the front of the room.
The students take their mood from the chairs and
vacantly stare at the instruclur. Separated from his
students by an interminable reach of empty chairs,
the instructor's voice echoes hollowly in a hall built
to accommodate prosperity classes. Today he rx·
plains the phenomenon of the business cycle, with
its inevitable depression. No one stirs. His voice
is of the soothing quality which induces sleep. Never
varying in tone it flows on in an unceasing stream
from somewhere in his mid-region.
The students haw: assumed the various poses
peculiar to college students who arc more bon:J
than their age would warrant. A few ·faces stand
out in the back row. A lean boy, one leg hooked
over the chair in front of him, calmly thumbs a
book, glancing up every now and then from under
heavy brows at the prof. With an enigmatic shrug
of his shoulder!! he returns to his book. His neigh·
bor, one eyebrow rai~d. giving to his countenance
a quizzical look, nudges him and whispers hoaiscly:
"He's telling us! Heavens, we lived through it."

Betty Fc"ton still wonders if the Goltlcn Fleece

Hank Peters says that maniage i~ .. sentencc, not
a word.
Many of the girls arc contemplating transferring

On the evening of Dec. 3, 11&gt;3fi, Dr. James G.
McDc-:1:dd spoke to an audience of 600 in the
j,Jnior College auditorium on "The European
Scene."
Dr. McDonald's view might be summed up in his
openin!,( declaration, that "no one can h.: at the same
time realistic and optimistic about the European
situation... He first showed the failure of the: steps
taken after the World War to prevent future wars.
The provisions made for revising treaties have never
been tried: collective security, on which most hope
was based, ha~ failed mi~erably in rl.'Cl.'nt tcst5; di5·
armament hopes have given way to the greatest
armament race in history: the League is politically
impotent.
Dr. McDonald went on tu point out the alignments, so like the pre-war alliances, which are de,
vcloping in Europe today, but scorned the idea of
Europe split into Communistic and Fascistic nations.
After this unhopcful heginning, he went on to
show the forces for and against war. Among the
former he put the fact that dictator~ must wage
war to rule, the increasing regimentation of youth,
the possibility of an "incident," and the inadequacy
of lea&lt;lers to strm a war•tide. On the cheerful side
of the ledl!er he nut the uncertaintv of the attitudes
of important Po~ers, the uncertainty of the nature
of a future war, the uncertainty of a government'!
surviving the stress of war, and, most important,
the universal desire for peace on the part of the
r.:oplc of the world.

Miss Brooks : "How is your French comii1g
along?"
Jack Saricks : "I ca,, shrug my shoulders now ."
Professor Gage: "'What's that noise?"
Mr. Disqt:c : "That must be the German Club,

Mr. Schwartz : "That ·s the second time that.

R. Johnston: "Yes, hut she doesn't write plainl y."

OUR FRIENDS THE CRITICS
In a recent meeting uf the Public Speaking class
some excellent addresses were delivered dealing with
the Beacon and thC' Junior College.
Their general tenor was distinctly critical, but with a con·
structive attitude throughcut . As space permits in
the present and forthcoming issues we shall print
some of the most p.:rtincnt comments upon our•
selves as a paper, and on our College as an cduca•
Liunal institution. We hope that our readers will
read such comments and in turn submit tr&gt; our
staff brief letters expressing their reactions to such
criticism.

(Brief excerpts from an address by James May·

The highest function of a College paper is tu
add to education; to :,.::rve a~ ar. e::changc of opinions. It should contain stories which dcmonstrat.::
reflection, poems which show stmly of c-ollcge litera•
turc, articles which reflect specialization . . . a,
in the engineering courses. Our paper is &gt;Jnequ.il
to our degree of education and mentality. Th.:
Beacon has nothing on the usual High School publication hccausc the material used is c~ntially the
~amc. The artist's portraits, however, arc sup.:rior
to work don::: in most High School journals.
The last is.,ue is appealing, I know, to many
breezy style, jokes, portraits, lots of names. flut

after you've finished r.:adinl? you don't find vour•
self reflecting long over the material. The novelty
nf the issue holds your attention but for a short
while.
The material used in such a publication would
not be cunfi111:J to college news. It wmild avoi&lt;l
accounts of stale material. Thoughts on music, art,
literature, the theatre, politics, economics and sports;
hiographies and articles with punch, would feature.

EDITORS. THE BEACON.
That intangible something called "good relationship" is only one of the things that have been
missed in the Junior College this year. The Faculty has talked about co-operation ;is desirable. The
students have longed for it, but such an end has not
as yet been r.:achcd.
To say the least many students have remarked
concerning the sr.eming unwillingness of certain fac,
ulty members to co-operate with them, not alone in
the classroom, but in outside affairs as well.
If these members· of the Faculty would meet the
students half way, co-operation would be a fact
instead of a pipe dream.
-\V.T.
Beacon Editors:Some students certainly have the wrong opinion
ahout the members of our faculty. If the students
of Buckne!l Junior Collq?c cooperated with them
as well as the faculty cooperate with the students we
might have that "intangihlc something called good
relationship.
Just because some students have pct grievar ·es
against certain members of the faculty, they shouid
not imply that our instructors fail to cooperate. Re,
member, you may be the one who is not cooperating.

THE BUCKNELL BEACON

NEW BOOKS OF INTEREST
Because our college library is comparatively small
most of us are inclined to think that it contains
books only for assigned readings. But if we glance
over the shelves more carefully, we will find that
it contains numerous books to be read for pleasure,
for knowledge, and to broaden horizons. Let's se,
lect a few titles.
Thirty of our students are planning to be en,
gineers. Certainly the book by C. C. Williams,
"Building an Engineering Career" will interest
them. It tells what personal traits an engineer
needs, what kinds of jobs he may fill, what salaries
may be expected, how he can plan his college course
most wisely and effectively.
Another new book in the library will especially
interest the girls, Dorothy Nye's "New Bodies for
Old," a book of exercises for refashioning the fig,
ures. Here are a few of the chapter headings:
"Hip, Hip, Away," "The Bridge of Sighs." Exer,,
cises for the Feet," "Comment Vous Portez-vous?"How Do You Carry Yourself?" And by the way,
did you know that the library has a copy of Emily
Post's "Etiquette?"
Amateur photographers, please notice! Turn to
Neblette's "Photography, Its Principles and Prac-

...

tice," for the solution to your photography prob,
lems.
There is a fascinating book on physics, illustrate&lt;l
with delightful drawings, which is guaranteed to be
intelligible to the student who has never had a
course in physics and to be interesting to the student who has had several. It is Lemon's "From
Galileo to Cosmic Rays."
Last but not least, all students of the social
sciences should know that we have just purchased
the report of President Hoover's Committee on So,
cial Trends, "Recent Social Trends In The United
States." In the New York Herald 'Tribune, Stuart
Chase says about the book: "Never before, to my
knowledge, have so many major problems of a
given time in a given culture been brought together, weighed and documented with such precision and intelligence."

THE BUCKNELL BEACON

BUCKNELL STUDENT DEVELOPS
NEW PRONUNCIATION
While roving through the corridors and class•
rooms of Bucknell Jr. College, your reporter was
amazed and delighted by the way in which many
of the Sophomores, engineers and Pre-Meds, were
pronouncing proper names. On inquiring into the
matter, it was found that the source of this startling
development was one Joseph Podrasky, a Sopho·
more Chemical Engineer.
This system, as it is so ably expounded by Mr.
Podrasky, consists merely of reducing the naJI1e of
the person to its first syllable, and then adding er.
This sounds simple, but results are astounding.
Boyle is changed to Boyler, Bohn to Bohner, Phillips to Philler, Romane to Romer, and Viglotti to
Vigger. From mere names one gets words which
&lt;1.re euphonious, easily remembered and meaningful.
In fact, the only drawback to the system is that it
will not handle names such as Miller or Leather.
But it is impossible in this short column, to at•
cempt to describe the good such a striking innova•
tion will do for us and for future generations. Let
it suffice to beg all loyal Bucknellians to rally round
the cause so that the dream may be fulfilled, which
Mr. Podrasky expresses when he says: "I confi,
dently expect that within ten years my system will
be taught in every school in America."

MUSIC NOTES

On Dec. 4, 1936, Mr. Edwin Clark gave a short
organ recital in the First Presbyterian Church. The
recital was especially for the members of the Music
Culture class, but it was open to the public. The
music was of the Romantic period, a,nd included
compositions of Mendelssohn, Schumann, Cesar
Franck, and Liszt. Mr. Clark deserves to be commended for an enjoyable performanci::.

GENTLEMEN! THE KING! .
Is Mrs. Simpson worth his sacrifice? Love isn't
the only thing.
Marion Jones.
Why shouldn't he marry a commoner? But a
twice divorced woman . .. That's another story.
A morganatic marriage would have been better than
abdication.
Bideth Davies
Mrs. S. is a social climber. English people love
the pomp that goes with royalty. The king is but
a figure-head, so why not keep royalty truly rnyal?
He should not marry "Wally."
Arthur Bloomburg
If Mrs. Simpson were queen, would she give up
her throne for him? In my estimation Mrs. Simpson is another Cleopatra.
John Hurley
The Empire has lost a man of courage and of
sympathy with the under-dog. It has regained a
figure-head. Now the Empire's statesmen can go
back to their serious question. . . How and When
to fight another "War for Democracy."
