A new SG constitution will be adopted sometime next year, not this year as originally planned. Perhaps SG’s basic fault is twofold: the original April 1 date for completion of the new constitution was recognizably an unreasonable deadline in view of the tremendous amount of work SG strove to accomplish; secondly.

Curtain time is 8 o'clock. Wilkes-Barre Kiwanis Club is sponsoring the production for the benefit of its Wheelchair Fund. Professor Harold Hill, the Music Man, is a glib salesman who charms his way into people's hearts while depleting their pocketbooks. After fast-talking small-town Midwesterners into buying musical instruments and band uniforms, he skips town, without fulfilling his promise to teach the newly-formed band how to play. However the swindle of River City, Iowa, proves to be the undoing of this amiable rascal. Here the Professor falls in love with the skeptical librarian, is exposed, then forgiven by both the librarian and the happy, but poorer, townspeople, and all live happily ever after. - -<'> Co-operating in the production of this extravaganza are the Cue and Curtain, directed by Alfred Groh, and the Music Department, headed by Robert Lovett.

Today is absolutely the last day orders will be taken, and students may sign at the Cafeteria lounge, the Bookstore lounge, or Parrish Hall lobby. Payments are to be made at a future date, to be announced. Dr. Farley approved the change in policy presented to him by the yearbook staff and Mr. Hoover. Again, the staff stresses that students must order today, for the exact number must be known when the contract is signed today. Students who have already ordered the Amnicola at a price higher than the dollar fee may obtain a refund beginning tomorrow by contacting any staff member. FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 1962 Students Vote for Honor Code Presented at Student Seminar by Vicki Tatz Ask yourself the question, "If an instructor were to leave his class during a test. would students take advantage of this situation to cheat?" Ideally the answer is no. Recognizing that students can assume individual responsibility for personal honor, the establishment of an Honor Code at Wilkes College is now being planned. Its stated purpose is to stimulate student maturity and dignity through greater individual responsibility. An Honor Code relies upon the principle that students are familiar with precepts of honorable conduct and are concerned with their observance. The tentative Code, as presented at the Student Seminar last Tuesu, day night, involves no giving or receiving of information in tests or quizzes. Test conditions would r emain subject to the individual instructor's discretion. Infractions may be reported by approaching The student Seminar held last the accused student and offering Tuesday night in the Commons pro- him an opportunity to report himvoked a great deal of thoughful self or by approaching a member discussion on major points of stu- of the Honor Court and reporting dent interest.

Associated with choral, symphonic, and solo work in Northeastern Pennsylvania's leading musical events, Mrs. Ralston has been named a main soloist to appear in the Cantata concert. She will join other prominent soloists, the Oratorio Society's fourpart chorus, and a full Festival Symphony Orchestra in presenting four of the greatest cantatas written by Bach.

The Jaycees feel, in this drive, that the under-priviledge children will benefit from the action by the student body. The toys are not necessarily new ones. In fact, the Reserve Center has asked for used or broken toys. They will be repaired at the Reserve Center and then passed out in time for the children at Christmas time. The Jaycees are asking for the help of the student body to make this program go over in a big way. A container will be found in the entrance to the Commons. The final date to place any toys there is Friday, December 14th. Aide Speaks at Dinner The executive director of the College's Community Research Center addressed the Wilkes-Barre Lions Club dinner last night. In his speech, Herman L. Otto discussed the economic conditions of Luzerne County. Michael Repa presided at the meeting which followed a dinner at the Twin Grill. In addition to the economy discussion, the Lions Club members heard reports on the annual fund raising drive and on the arrangements for the organization's Christmas party. �Friday, November 30, 1962 WILKES COLLEGE BEACON 2 EDITORIALS- Be a Little Classy - Go Formal The Joe Colleges on campus are always complaining that "there's never really anything to do around here." The Lettermen challenge this complaint by sponsoring a Christmas formal next week. Perhaps the price is a trifle high; but we should realize that the Lettermen are sponsoring it - not for profit - but simply for the satisfaction of students who plead for a formal. Because it is the only true college formal affair - Student Government having made the Cinderella Ball a semi-formal one, according to last year's ruling - and because the Lettermen do a beautiful job on decorations and on gala atmosphere, we should support them in their endeavor. Let's keep a little class on campus! Must the Mail Get Through? ON THE BANDSTAND with Hal Kistler The latest thing to hit the jazz scene is a new form of music called the "bossa nova". According to various experts, the Portuguese slang expression, "bossa nova", means "the new beat" or "the new wrinkle". Oversimplifying it quite a bit, we can say that bossa nova is a combination of a samba rhythm and jazz played with a free, light approach. Although bossa nova has hit the headlines only recently, it appears to date back to 1953 when Brazilian guitarist Laurindo Almenido and American bassist Harry Babasin began to kick around a few ideas. With Bud Shank (saxophone) and Ray Harte (drums), they cut an album of bossa nova; the album never sold and soon the group broke up. However, experiments were to be continued in Brazil. Many Brazilian musicians have followed jazz closely through the years and by listening to American jazz albums have become well acquainted with jazz. More recently, trips by U.S. jazzmen such as Herbie Mann and Charlie Byrd to South America have given the Brazilians a closer look at jazz and in turn have given the U.S. jazzmen an opportunity to observe the Brazilian experiments with it. It is still too early to tell just what the future holds for bossa nova. Currently the record industry is flooding the market with bossa nova albums; some of them are pretty good - some of the albums not so good. It may remain a part of the field of jaz-z or possibly it may develop into a field of its own. Whatever the course may be, if it survives the current surge of commercialism, we should be in for some very pleasant listening·. An editor of a college newspaper can become extremely aware of the world situation simply by reading his daily mail. Here are a few gems which would have escaped Beacon readers had I not scoured this week's mail. Since these items deserve little editorial comment, I shall simply relate, not interpret, them. In an advertisement, an area newspaper announced that rings, worth $1.95, would be sold at the sale-of-all-sales-to-endall-going-out-of-business-and-any-other "heartbreaking" t y p e sales, for $6.88. Now is that a bargain, gentlemen? Besides newspaper men, photographers, too, have their problems. The Beacon office received a picture of a graduating class seated on stage. Beneath the picture was a story which gave the class motto as "Forward Ever, Backward Never." Apparently the photographer took the photo from a disadvantage point, since the half-exposed motto in the picture compelled, "Ever, Backward." A red-faced English department at Colorado State University explains its vegetable raid which resulted in destruction of experimental projects and master's degree experiments in botany: "The whole thing was a misunderstanding. Some of us heard a rumor that the vegetables at a farm were to be plowed under. Now I ask you, what would you have done? We went over there and got some fresh vegetables." A former Fort Benning mail clerk wrote of a most interesting envelope to Pvt. Robert Travers U.S. 1740448 - from Mrs. Robert Travers 36-24-36. Honestly, the Marine officer who received top-secret security clearance only meant to answer the questions sincerely. When asked, "Have any of your relatives ever advocated the violent overthrow of the government of the United States?" he replied, "Yes." Lengthy investigation found that he was the greatgrandson of Chief Sitting Bull. Life is just one long process of getting tired. In the past seven years, Americans have eaten enough TRES CHIC hamburgers at one restaurant chain alone - 700 million of them -to reach almost twice around the world, if laid end to end. If shot into orbit, the 47,122 miles of hamburger would encircle the globe l ½ times. It would take one person 7,000 years to eat 700 million burgers - eating one every five minutes, and one hundred years for him to count them, counting at the rate of one per second. by Maryann Wilson The weeks ahead are often weeks ahead.

This season mink is receiving much competition from furs of otter, beaver, nutria, and Persian lamb. There is also a resurgence of interest in the spotted cat furs of the 1920's and the fox of the 1930's. The fact that both Jacqueline Kennedy and Elizabeth Taylor are wearing leopard has created a renewed interest in it. Sable is now being shown in high fashion designs. Even brightly colored rabbit is beginning to appear. Ocelot, civet, jaguar and other spotted cats have also come upon the scene. HIPBONE JEWELRY Hipbone jewelry is one approach to dressing up the little black basic. One giant splashy rhinestone is pinned at this spot on an otherwise unadorned sheath. Lingerie trends feature feminine finery for the holiday season. The newly classic shift is widely shown as well as a smock look that might have been borrowed from a French baker. A flattering robe in shimmery cotton would be a very welcome present to find under the tree. A creamy smock gown with gathered yoke and tiny collar is embroidered with holiday sparkle. NEW LIPSTICK SHAPE The newest shape in lipstick is the triangle. This shape simplifies lipstick application since it outlines like a pencil and applies like a brush. Sneak preview of summer fashions - bamboo-ribbed sunglasses, and red patent leather swimsuits. Swim sweaters, tunics, short shifts, and pleated skirts are shown in such improbably seaworthy fabrics as gold and platinum lastex, rhinestone-studded lace, stretch denim, 1 chiffon, and suede. Taming The Wild West by barbara lore One evening last week as I blissfully curled up in a chair and lost myself in the strains of "Swan Lake," I was rudely jolted out of my reverie by the unlyrical snort of a six-shooter. Fearing invasion, I hastened downstairs to find my fears realized. A mean looking bunch of masked riders being pursued by an equally fearsome "possee" had invaded our living room. Much disturbed I retreated to my room and tried to ignore the din pervading the house. But to no avail. Even the "1812 Overture" was interspersed with the pounding of hoofs - TV variety. Conceding defeat, I wearily trudged downstairs and surrendered to the spell of the "Old West" - but not gracefully. Resentfully I mused on the same, old, dull plot, the stereotyped hero and heroine - "Cheyenee is just Bronco Lane in different chaps." I wondered just what was the secret of this cowboy - this so frequent visitor to our homes via television, movies, records, and literature. It's certainly not his realism! He would have been ill at ease on the early American frontier, but yet he has certainly captured the hearts and imagination of the American public. This romantic creature who lives on horseback as the Bedouins do, fights on horseback as did the knight of chivalry, armed with his trusty six-shooter which he uses ambidextrously and precisely, swears like a trooper, drinks like a fish, wears clothes like an actor, fights like a devil, defends virtuous women, and is generous to friend s and brutal to enemies, has become the American hero. But where did he come from? As might be expected, this composite of all Anglo-American virtues and vices is the product of historians, fiction writers, ballad composers, folk singers, and artists in search of an American folk hero. Capitalizing on the fact that the cattle frontier was not only one of the most exciting and uniquely American periods of our history but also conveniently distant from civilization so that few people ever viewed the real cowboy, these legend-builders spun fantastic tales of daring and skill of the "booted cavalier" of the plains which few have bothered to refute and many have imitated. Here was a writer's dream - a setting of the Great American Desert held in awe by Americans for so many years and a hero, who as both pathfinder and empire builder conquered it. - Could they be blamed for using it? The overworked Western themes which present the cowboy busily engaged in defending either women or towns in distress forget that the real cowboy was, first of all, a worker with cows, either a trail driver or range rider. After performing his unglamorous chores, and with little to entertain him, is it so surprising that he occasionally blew the lid off a frontier town? But this was seldom indeed. Usually he amused himself by rather mundane pastimes such as playing cards or riding the open trail with no particular destination in mind. His colorful garb, with which wardrobe directors have a field day, was not chosen for effect but rather practically-the wide-brimmed sombrero to protect him from the sun, the high heeled boots to keep his feet secure in the stirrups, his chaps to protect his legs from the adverse effects of constant rubbing, and his Colt revolver to furnish him the protection he needed in his usually solitary life. Then there's the myth surrounding the Colt. The heroic gun battle, ever present in Western dramas, which places the protagonists at opposite ends of a long street, is the product of a writer's imagination, since the six-gun is not accurate at a distance of more than twenty-five to thirty yards. Not 1·eally very heroic, the cowboy employed his gun to settle his disputes in a highly practical manner, usually surprising his foes and often shooting them in the back. But even so the six-gun was used sparingly. Recent discoveries suggest that Billy the Kid, supposedly the most feared gunman of them all, shot only about 5 men. If the cowboy did rely on his gun more than his fists it was only because he viewed fighting on foot as demeaning and not for white men - a fact ignored by western authors. The tales of his rescuing maidens in distress is also highly unrealistic since there were few women on the frontier and these few were usually those who were too rough for the civilized eastern section and needed no protection. Now that I had completely devastated the myth of the cowboy to my own satisfaction I felt revenged. But then an annoying thought why doesn't someone expose him for the fake he is and purge television-land of this "waste material." SO THERE ... The answer must be that Americans WON'T expose their hero that the average American, caught up in the pressures of conformity and group effort enjoys the fantasy of a super-human hero who rides with the gods and like a devil, carries his own rules loaded in his holster and enforces them according to his own interpretation. Perhaps he's not so bad after all .... Spanish Sludenl Kalhie Marks Spends Summer Touring Spain by Alis Pucilowski Sophomore Spanish major Kathie Marks, who attended Pine Manor Junior College in Wellesley, Mass., spent last summer touring Spain in affiliation with The Experiment in International Living, whose headquarters are in Putney, Vermont, where training has also been held for the Peace Corps. · The non-denominational organization's object is to spread American ways and ideas abroad, at the same time permitting Americans to study the people of a particular country. One doesn't go as a tourist; one lives as the people do. Kathie said that she traveled in a group of ten. Each member of the group lived with a family for three to four weeks. That person then invited a member of the family to travel with him for two weeks, after which time, the family members goes home and the group travels independently for a week. The cost of the entire project is under $1000, depending on the country one wishes to visit. Kathie, who has studied Spanish for eight years, lived in San Sebastian, the wealthiest part of Spain, with the Don Juan Olaizola family, consisting of his wife's parents, and D. Olaizola's ten month old son, Juan Carlos. The Spaniards took her on a bus tour of Galicia, and the group's independent tour was through Andalucia. The organization's motto, "Expect the Unexpected," could best be illustrated by Kathie's own experiences. Commenting on the Galician tour, she said, "The bus ride itself was unique. The bus drivers maneuver their buses." She we had to allow two hours of every day for getting lost. There was one time we traveled over a bridge resembling that of the River Kwai. It was amazing how those bus drivers meneuver their buses."

Tapoff time is set for 8:00 at the gym. Last year the Colonels were trounced by the Lions, 95-55, at Reading. Outplayed throughout the contest, the Colonels tried, in vain, to overcome the striking height advantage of the Lions, but finally succumbed to the smooth-moving Albright quintet.

The high schools are preparing for opening nights and holiday tourneys. The Colonels open tomorrow night with Albright, and the Wilkes-Barre Barons show promise of a fine year. Since the baseball Barons left Wilkes-Barre a number of years ago, the basketball Barons have been the only professional sport in the valley. The Barons, local pro cagers, have produced some fine teams in the interim since baseball left. The past few campaigns, however, have left something to be desired; the Barons having ended , up in fifth place last season. This year the Wilkes-Barreans are hopeful of an improvement over last season's record and are off to a good start towards the realization of this goal. In three games played thus far, the Barons have won two and lost one. In the opener on Thanksgiving night, the Barons defeated th e Scranton Miners.

Perh<:1ps this question can best be answered by the young lady who 1s the only female accounting major at Wilkes, Alice Powell. "I must admit that in the beginning I did feel rather out of place; however as time passed, I adjusted to this condition, and at the present time don't even give its existence a second thought."

Mrs. Vujica was "the Wife of Dr. Stanko Vujica, head of the Philosophy and R eligion Departments at Wilkes College, and was widely known as an author of short stories and poetry in her native Croatia, Yuxoslavia Shortly after her death, Dr. Brontis Kaslas of the History Department at Wilkes wrote a eulogy 'in her honor. The following are some excerpts from this eulogy: "Mrs. Vujica's day of prosperity was joyful indeed because she knew how to give herself to others, a far from commonplace talent, as we all know. Many of us can admit to being so introspectively occupied that the giving of self often fa ils to enter our plans. But she, whom we honor, simply knew of no other way in which to live. In her chosen work as head librarian at Wilkes, in her relationships with confederates and students, she became an institution within an institution, a nucleus of our cultural aims, the golden nugget at the heart of a place of /earning, wherein the seed of man's fo ndest hopes fo r a better tomorrow is still to be fo und. She sent out rays to encompass not only her private milieu of the library, but to touch and warm all of us who functioned around her during the past 25 years. "I know we all agree that Mrs. Vujica was a major influence in the development of Wilkes. The word "influence" has a charming literal defin ition which seems especially appropriate in describing her contributions: - the flowing of an ethereal fluid of power fro m the stars - thought to affect the actions of people - and this definition rings with truth, for both the Vujicas, linked by a bond forged of mutual love and respect and by a shared heritage of pride in thidr origins, certainly brought a "power from the stars " into our daily routines to stir out imaginations and encourage us to seek broader knowledge and new horizons of selfimprovement. "Mrs. Vujica was dependable, unique, precious. Her character was spun of sturdy thread, the kind we can ill afford to spare in our tangled world. She fulfilled a demanding post f or two and one half decode; and imbued it with all the beauty of her nature. Her friendship meant so much to us at its projected ab sence hardly seems bearable in this sod moment. And yet I know that she left us positive values, and that it is upon these which she would wan t us to dwell. "The library was Mrs. Vujica 's daily business, and perhaps this old description of the function of a book would aptly describe her character: "A book will do y ou good, and ask no fa vor in return. It gives, and does not take. " Nor has she left us even now, for the institution she created out of her own mind and spirit and the unwavering design of culture at Wilkes, which molded with her special artestry, will remain a part of our school's heritage until time itself runs out. "Therefore, for the sake of human worth and dignity, let us who survive try to Jive according to Nada Vujica 's example. Let us perpetuate the love she engendered among us by using it every day to renew hope, spread wisdom, calm storms, relieve oppression; and abo ve all let us extend our hands in friendship as she exUnded hers. In so doing, we will be building a monument not only to a cherished being, but to the important values she taught us to uphold. " President Francis J. Michelini, in marking her death, said in part: "The death of Mrs. Noda Vujica marks the second time in a few months that Wilkes College has lost someone who cannot be replaced. "Individuals like Mrs. Vujica are unique to any educational institution because she was blessed with the habit of giving of herself in a way that leaves. all those with whom she came in contact richer by the experience. " In keeping with a continuing effo rt to improve the quality of education at Wilkes , College President Dr. Francis J . Michelini thi s week announced the formation of a Stude nt-Faculty Evaluat ion Committee. Dr. Michelini sees the recent innovation as a re flectio n of " the maturity of the fac ulty, an indication of their confidence in the teaching pro fessio n." · The committee is a positive action aimed at making the teaching· program here at Wilkes as effec tive as possible. The purpose of committee action will not be to judge the teachers and decide the fate of their jobs. As a result of discussions over the last three to four y.ears , it became apparent to students and faculty that unless the program took a positive constructive form , admitting both students and faculty , it would be little more than a critique session. Students will still be the primary mechanism , but their efforts will be aimed at constructive changes, based on questionnaires and actual observation. Selection of committee members will follow the standard procedure set up by Stua ent Government. An initial invitation for membership in the committee will be directed at the entire student body . Applications will then be made available for the students at key locations on campus. These applications will then be submitted to the Student Government Executive Committee which will in turn ra te the applicants. Selections by the committee will then be turned over to Dr. Michelini for the final decision. Discussion for the Evaluation Committee first came up at the fall faculty meeting. Action was taken in the formation of an ad hoc committee on · teacher recognition and effectiveness. The com mittee was chaired by Mr. Michael Barone. Committee membe rs included Mr. Warre n DeArment , Engl ish Department ; Ca ldwell Stresses Technology Among the distinguished educators who spoke recently at a meeting of the Northeast Regional Na t io n al S cie n ce Teachers Associa t io n in H a r tfo rd, Connecticut was Dr. Harrie E. Caldwell, professor of education at Wilkes College. Dr. Caldwell , who is one of the directors of specialized training in el e mentary and secondary education, - presented an add ress, "Of Talking Kids and Teacher Talk - Analysis of Self. " "Analy sis, and subsequent evaluation on one's own teaching strategies and effectiveness is probably practiced , in some way, - by all teachers," according to Dr. Caldwell. Modern technology has provided one means that Dr. Caldwell has found useful in aiding teachers in observing their own behavior in the classroom. This type of oberservation and analysis of one's own teaching becomes more efficient when it is done in a systematic fashion . By the end of the session , each participant was able to 9escribe the categories and techiniques which constitute the last base and demonstrate procedures for collecting and analyzing data from a typed script of a science lesson. Dr. Caldwell also had a particular goal in mind - that participants become proficient with an interaction analysis system, analyze their own teaching and become more flexible teachers. Mrs. Patricia Pisanesch i, Psychology Department ; Dr. Wilbur Hayes, Biology De partment ; Dr. Joel Berlatski , History Department; and Mf. Jacinto Vereda, Economics Department. The ad hoc committee fo rmulated the following standards fo r composition and charge of the permanent committee: "The committee shall consist of nine members: two faculty members fr om each division and one student fro m each of the three divisions. Faculty members shall be appointed by the President from a slate of at least three members from each division nominated by the faculty. Department and division chairmen shall not be eligible for nomination. Student members shall be appointed by the President following the prevailing procedure used for other standing committees. "The committee shall determine and administer techniques fo r (I) evaluating and improving teacher effectiveness and (2) properly utilizing the accumulated information. "The committee shall be responsible for presenting a progress report to the faculty prior to the last scheduled faculty meeting of the current academic year." This proposal was passed at the October faculty meeting . Nominations to the permanent committee will be made at the November meeti ng. Dr. Michelin i anticipates that the committee will be operational by December I . The actual evaluation will be assessed in April and May fo r the following academic year. In discussing the forma tion of the committee, Dr. Michelini sta ted that he sees it as "a challenge to improve the quality of our teacning." He feels that there is a continual "need to strive for an ideal quality," and regards the evaluation committee as part of the continuing "efforts to achieve perfec tion."

Using the term "security" on this campus may bring a variety of responses, but they generally boil down to one impression "What security?" Dormitory students are informed that the College has a system of security guards on campus set up to meet the general needs of the college students. But a great many students are unaware that there is such an institution in existance on this campus, much less able to fathom the role or importance of a conscientious security guard. Several years ago the students themselves attempted to initiate a system of student patrols, indicating that the then present system was indeed inadequate. The results were good, but no one grasped the initiative to continue a job that otheres were doing inadequately and still getting paid for. Wilkes College is con,atantly expanding. This means that the actual area which the campus encompasses also increases. Wilkes is definitely not a tightly unified campus, therefore, there is need for adequate security means to assure the coverage of the entire campus. Pragmatically, Wilkes has no security, system, or at the most, one that is easy to skirt around, thus making it totally ineffective. A regular system of patrols is sent out, but the system is so regular, that anyone with a minute degree of intelligence need only follow a security guard one eve_ning to figure out the pattern and literally be "in" without any possibility of being apprehended. The activities of last year alone demonstrate to what a dangerous degree security is failing. Where were the security guards when a male student climbed up to the second floor of a girl's dorm, entered through the window, and ran through the building? Where were the security guards when rooms were entered through means of a fire escape? Practical jokes? Maybe. But what happens that ONE time when the actions aren't just jokes? The examples are endless, but the answer still remains a huge question mark. We repeat - What Security? A Worthwhile Issue At the time of this writing, it is yet uncertain whether Wilkes will conduct a Prospective Freshman Weekend. The motion passed IDC and the final decision is up to the Council of Deans. It is our hope that after all circumstances have been considered, the council will vote in favor of the proposal. The last weekend of this sort was held during the winter of 1969, for the benefit of this years' Junior Class. We feel that the program offered much for the high school r~~~~~==~~,i seniors who came to Wilkes and it would be to the best interest of the college to initiate the program again.

ATTEMPTS TO SOLVE Backround to 1971 Draft Act />resident Nixon's Record: Appointed Commission on an All-Volunteer Armed Force 27 March 1969, headed by Thomas Gates; report with recommendations on volunteer army and interim draft reforms submitted 6 February 1970. Message to Congress, 23 April 1970, calling for lottery, 20 percent pay raise, deferment modification, national uniform call. By Executive Order President limited vulnerability to one y ear instead of seven (during 19th birthday or y ear after losing deferment), and set policy of calling youngest men first. Pay was increased 7.1 percent in 1970. Congress in I 9 70: Passed President Nixon's lottery hill, rejected 20 percent incentive pay increases. House debated other draft reforms, asked by the President, late in the year, but neither house took action. Congressional Action in 1971 President's Message, 28 January 1971: Extend draft two years till I July 1973, enact Draft Board reforms, modify deferments, increase pay incentives, authorize uniform national call. House of Representatives: On I April 1971 passed its version (H.R. 6531) of the President's bill, voting 293-99. Accepted 30 July 1971 House-Senate Conference Report on 4 August 1971, voting 297-108. Senate: On 24 June 1971 passed H.R. 6531 with 28 amendments/changes, voting 72-16. Accepted Conference R eport on 21 September 1971, voting 55-30. Changes Under New law 1. Student Deferments: President was given authority (which he has said he will exercise) to end student deferments starting with the _19 71-72 academic year. Men in college ~fore this year may retain deferments for four years total or until the age of 24; whichever comes first. Students drafted while in school may postpone induction until end of the academic year: Current new students are not entitled to student deferments, but may complete their year's work. 2. Uniform National Call: President was given authority-(which he has also said he will exercise) to induct men on a national rather than local basis. Thus men with the same lottery number will be inducted ar' th; same time, regardless of the location of their draft boards. 3. Draft Board Composition: Maximum service for members is 20 y ears (down from 25). The minimum age is 18 (previously set at 30) and maximum 65 (down from 75) for Board members. Local boards may be consolidated with the governor's consent. 4 . Other Deferments: Divinity students may obtain deferments but lose them if they do _not enter the ministry immediately upon graduation. Sole surviving sons continue to be eligible for exemptions. Any man whose father, brother or sister was killed in military service starting I January 1960 is also exempt, and if already iri service may retire. Aliens cannot be drafted until they have lived in the U.S. for one y ear, or if they have served in the armed f orce of any U.S. ally.

The second 1P on "Untitled," the studio production, shows this trend. There are a few old-Byrds type songs, such as the Leadbelly cocaine holler "Take a Whiff' (it once filtered onto pop radio in the form of "Have a Drink on Me."). But mainly the studio songs here are of the new type, rounder and more compact. And several other group members sing lead on various songs. Traditionally McGuinn did most of the vocals, as his voice was the Byrds' trademark. "The Byrds (Untitled)" thus spans a good deal of Byrds history, and that takes in quite a span. There is an emotion and a tremendous vitality in what they do: I realize this .is a very I 967 San Francisco thing to say, but Byrds music like "Mr. Tambourine Man" always struck me as very circular- moving, like lying on the grass on a cool night and watching the stars move in a big circle.

Not true. There is one thing that binds a!J students all over the country - aJJ over the world - together. Their parents. There usua!Jy are two of them per student. Some students have more, or less; but usually each student is blessed with two. And it's not easy for us to forget them. They help us select a college. "I don ' t like it , AI," your mother caws to your father. "Don't like what, Esther? "This college - this Harvard place. What kind of school is that for a nice boy like Our Marvi n - so far away from home?" They even give us the application fee money. They give us money go ,go away to school with. They patk our clothes carefully, underwear and socks on the bottom , shirts and suits in the middle, and a gas mask on the top (I mean, they read Newsweek, they know), your mother muttering God Forbid as she closes the mammoth trunk shut. And fina!Jy we're gone - supposedly basking in educational bliss , miles away from home . Yes. We 're gone . But they're still there. The first letter comes a day after you 've arrived, taped to the outside of a large package. "Dear Son , Enclosed with this letter is a year's supply of vitamins so that you shouldn't get a deficiency. " And the letters are always signed Your Mother so you shouldn't think it's someone else's mother who 's sending you vitamins. For the first few weeks of college, the letters arrive daily at the dorm. Then the phone ca!Js start coming. "Hello, Marvin? This is your mother." "Oh, hi, Ma." "Don't "Hi, Ma" me. Marvin , do you know how much this phone call is costing me?" "Ma, you didn't have to-" "Marvin, I know what's going on. I know. I saw the 6 o'clock news tonight. I saw you sitting in the president's office with that bunch of roughnecks. I saw you smoking his cigarettes and drinking his sherry ." "Ma --" . "Marvin, I saw. I saw it a!J." "But, Ma --" "Marvin, I want you to know -- and I don't want you to feel the least bit guilty -- but you've let your father and I down terribly --" "Ma!" "I didn't know. I didn't know. This is why we sent you away to that fancy-shmancy $4,000 a year college? We never thought you 'd be up to anything like this." "Ma, I --". " Marvin. You promised. And you've let us down. Your father and I are very disappointed that you're, that you're--" "That I'm what , Ma?" "That you're smoking cigarettes and drinking sherry. You promised you wouldn't , Marvin." "But Ma I --" "So liste~, Star. You looked very nice on the TV. Maybe you should go into the television field - " uMa." " So who was that girl you were with? You never told your mother about her - " And on and on it goes, your Mother, having only your best interests at heart. Of course . And then there's that evening you call home "just to talk" and your mother's out and you attempt to talk to your father and mention that you're changing your major. "Dad?" "Yes, Son." (He calls you Son so that you shouldn't forget.) "I'm changing my major from Pre-Med to Humanities." "To Humanities?" "Yeah." "What are you going to do -- open up a Humanities store?" But worse than the letters, worse than the phone calls, are the Vacations. There usua!Jy are three or four a year. You come back home exhausted from cramming hard after ~eek-long exams, tired from having led such a staunch, clean-cut, moral college life, wiped out from those post-finals parties. You return home looking tired and worn out, ready to go back to your old room and faint. As you walk in the door, your mother pulJs out an old copy of the National Observer. "See, Al," she says to your father. "I was right." Your father tucks in his undershirt and takes a deep breath. "What's aJJ this about?" You ask weakly. "Marvin, your eyes are bloodshot," your mother says. "I haven't slept much -- exams." . "And I detect a drastic change in your personality." {Continued on Page I 2) One of the most fundamental points of President Nixon's platform is a determined attack against crime in the United States. In an all- out effort to preserve law and order , the President has launched an intensive campaign to purge the country of criminals and other various law-breakers. The way I see it, this effort could deal a most devastating blow to the welfare of the United States. Here are just a few of the disastrous implica tions of Nixon's "war on crime ": The most immediate backlash would result from approximately 20 million professional criminals who would find themselves out of work. Being especially trained for their special, technical skills, they would find it extremely difficult to adjust to o ther occupations. This means that nearly all of these professionals would be fo rced to go on relief, which would swell our already-bloated unemployment ranks another l O percent. In addition , the abolition of crime in the United Stated would imply the disbanding of all law enforcement agencies. We would have no need for local policemen, State Troopers , the F .B.I., the CJ. A. , night watchmen, security guards, and cowboy sheriffs. This raises our unemployed mob another two percent. And that's not a!J . The elimination of crime would effectively curb the need for many currently thriving businesses; for TRI DIVISION {From Page 3) instance : all companies which sell The humanities are just insurance against theft and beginning to get involved in area vandalism , those corporations affairs. Dr. Fiester points to the which manufacture locks and other theater workshop, the various concerts and the art shows as the division's outlay.

Dr. Fiester targets success in his Sunday will introduce the division as a commitment the program's first Ecumenical Church student makes to himself combined Service which promises to become with a certain amount of creativity. Still there is no formula for success as s~ch , but as long as the student has met admission standards and is. prepared to work, he should encounter little difficulty. Often a student's major problem in the humanities is slow reading speed and poor comprehension . There is a new face in Weckesser Hall this semester. Mr. Bernard Vinovrski has been appointed Director of the Evening Division Wilkes Co!Jege. Vinovrski is a native of Luzerne , Pa . Having graduated from Wilkes in 1969, he is we!J acquainted with the college. As Director of the Evening Division , Vinovrski schedules evening courses and assists Dean Whitby in addition to arranging courses of study for evening students . Although the evening co!Jege will remain basically the same, Vinovrski plans to experiment with Saturday classes . He also plans several management seminars with representatives of area business. The purpose of these seminars is to discuss how the evening college presently benefits the area and how it can better benefit it. Directo r Vinovrski explained that the evening college is utilized by people who can attend classes only in the evening . Many area workers attend evening classes. The evening college also helps older people and those who have been away from school to further their education. They often feel they can't compete with other students on a full time basis. The evening courses provide them with a chance to further their education while adjusting to the college envirornment. safety devices, those which sell safes and burglar alars , and personnel who raise and train watchdogs .. . Not to mention that the sale of weapons and ammunition would drop by abou t 30 percent; or that all distric t attorney, judges and othe r courtroon employees would become bored to death, and co!Ject cobwebs from just sitting around . By this this time, about half of the United Stated would be unemployed. The working hal f of the country would be forced either to go broke trying to support these masses, or to simply let the poor suckers starve to death. [ would assume that the unemployed would not support the latter alternative, regardless of their patriotism. ln fact , they would be great enough in number to organize the largest crime operation known to mankind , in order to sruvive . With no law-enforcement agencies in operation , the United States would crumble like a burnt fly in a flame. Apparently, President Nixon does not realize the revolution and anarchy which he is advocating. Apparently , he does not realize that he is one of the greatest threats to the welfare of our nationn. (Of course, he may be working for "them sneaky Commies.) As for me, I am working hard to ensure the preservation of crime in the United States. Crime is good, wholesome and red-blooded. It's as American as Mom, apple pie and involvement in Vietnam . And it is one of the factors that has made America the rich, influential, powerful country that it is today . Let's face it - crime pays. an integral part of future Homecoming Weekends.

According to FCC regulations, an educational radio station can not compete with commercial stations by presenting the same type programming. It may not present any type of programming in abundance that is not of an educational nature There is little student interest in doing actual work on the station and cataloging material. Therefore, for the first year there will be little time to work out and present contemporary music' in an educational context. Dr. Farley, Dr. Michelini and Mr. Berg pointed out that the station is basically oriented to educate, but the actual programming is flexible.

" No, I'm ·apathetic." "No, my picture won't be in it." "No, I don't know that many people." "No, I don't have $5 to spare." These are just a few of the responses a Beacon reporter received when she asked some students this pertinent question. Barbara McNicholl , editor of the 1972 AMNICOLA, was interviewed to get answers to this dilemma. AMNICOLA has had a continuous deficit for many years , because the selling price of the yearbook was kept low while the cost of production was rising. Student Government allotment did not cover the difference, and at this time the yearbook has a deficit of $2700. The 1971 AMNICOLA cost _$ 10,500 to produce. This did not include $500 paid to Paramount Studios for photography or $500 which covers miscellaneous expenses. By keeping the same quality of the 1971 AMNICOLA, the 1972 AM NICOL A will co st approximately $11 ,200. The Student Government allotment this year to AMNICOLA is the same amount as last year, $7500. If 600 yearbooks are sold at $5 each, the intake will be $3000. The ads usually bring in $800, _b ut the goal this year is $ 1000. Therefore, the expected gross income is $11 ,500. Although this is $300 more than the supposed cost of the 1972 AMNICOLA, miscellaneous costs such as postage and office supplies must· be considered. When asked what could be done to help lower production costs, Barbara McNicholl stated ,. "Certainly it would help if we sold more than 600 yearbooks. The production cost goes down with each yearbook ordered over _5 00 copies." "Why do you only sell 600 books?" "I d'on't really know. I feel that the quality of the book is very good. The Wilkes students seem to feel that the yearbook is unimportant. They fail to realize that their yearbook is a permanent recollection of all phases of their college life. It · does not seem possible that Wilkes students would complain about the price as most have paid much more for their high school yearbook. It is not uncommon for colleges to charge $20 for their books." The AMNICOLA costs $14 -to publish per copy. The underclassmen only have to pay $5 and the seniors only $5.50 for their copies. Barbara McNicholl stated that she would like to hear from the student body about any suggestions they have concerning this dilemma. "Maybe the students can tell me . why they won't buy an AMNICOLA or how we can raise the number of subscriptions sold." If anyone has any views concerning the yearbook, please address all comments to Barbara McNicholl, Hollenback Hall, Wilkes College.

On several occasions, the Colonels were behind, yet they kept refusing to fold. Instead, the "Golden Horde" used thei~ outstanding physical condition to carry them to victory in the final minutes of the game. Wilkes received the opening kickoff but failed to move the ball. After an exchange of punts, Aggies Jim Foote threw a 37-yard pass to 9.8 speedster, Dan Guers for a tally . The PAT was good and DV had a 7-0 lead. This score held up 'til the end of the first period. The second stanza began as Delaware Valley 's· center made a bad snap on a punt attempt as Ratchford and Grandinetti recovered for Wilkes. The Colonels marched to the DV 14-yard line where a pass from Maze to Horan was slightly overth rown . On a crucial play, Jim Foote was "blitzed" and stopped by Tony Cardinale. Then the talented Foote , who is the leading punter in the conference, booted a 55-yard kick to Jones. Again the Wilkes offense sputtered and had to give up the ball. Blaum took a low pass from center and got off a 39-yard punt. The DV offense was thwarted by the defensive · efforts of our "G-men" - Galfcki, Graziano and Grandinetti. The Aggies punted and once more the "blue and gold" began to make yardage yet couldn't score against a tough 4-4-3 Aggie defense headed by linebacker Larry Eisenhardt. Dan Guers took the punt, shook a few tackles and raced 82 yards for the score as Wilkes now trailed 14-0. The Colonels took the kick and moved up field behind some great offensive blocks. Then, at the 47-yard line of Wilkes , a fumble was recovered by Delaware. The fired-up Aggie team began to advance the ball as if intent on slaughtering the local heroes. With a third down and 11 yards to go situation, Galicki intercepted a pass on his ow~ ten and rambled for 22 yards on some nifty open-field running . · The Colonels began a drive which was repeatedly halted by penalties. A pass interference call DV gave Blaum the chance to kick a 39=yard field goal which broke the existing record of 37 yards held jointly by Paul Purta and Dave Kaschak . It now seemed as though Wilkes was on the path to victory when DV completed a 50-yard pass play to set up a field goal try before halftime . A 40-yard try was short , but Wilkes was called for offsides and the 35-yard kick by Bracchi of DV was good making it 17-3 at halftime in favor of the Aggies. Wilkes bomb squad started the second half by kicking to Delaware Valley: The following plays featured bone-crushing tackles by Ashton and super-soph Grandinetti. The Colonels gained possession and started to roll on the ground with some yeoman ball carrying by Jim Yanora, who played his best game to date. Giberson continued to mix his plays well as the DV defense was "keying" on Yeager. (The flashy Catawissa star had his usual great game and fulfilled my prediction of two touchdowns.) Giberson then unloaded a 43-yard toss to premier receiver Bill Horan for a TD. The try for two failed, and Wilkes was down by a 17-9 margin. After the kickoff, the Aggies decided to test the secondary with passes. Hillard intercepted a pass at the DV 16-yard line. Two plays later, Yeager took a pitchout into the endzone on a well-executed end sweep. Following the kickoff, the stout defense held the DV offense at bay and forced a punt. The Colonels got the ball on their own 15 and, to the horror of the partisan crowd, the Aggies recovered another fumbled handoff. The fumble set up a crucial series for the Colonels who had to call upon their vaunted defense to quell the threat . Cardinale stopped the first-down play at the line of scrimmage. The next two rushes were stopped by Ashton and Galicki. This set up a fourth -down- and-inches play. Wilkes stopped the play for a one-yard loss and got the ball back. The third quarter ended with the score now DV 17, Wilkes 15. Delaware Valley began the last period with an end-around play that was stopped for a loss by Pavill and Ashton. Lightning struck again as Foote passed a 42-yarder to Glenn for a score . The PAT was good and DV now had a 23-15 lead. Another team would now be ready to concede defeat after this tough break - but not Wilkes. The Colonels displayed talent, fortitude and PRIDE., The valiant efforts of the Golden Horde· were viewed in awe by Ithaca scouts attending the game. Wtlkes struck back on its next series with a beautifully executed pass play from Giberson to Horan covering 73 yards for a score . After the PAT failed, Wtlkes trailed 23-21 with seven minutes left in the game. The Colonel defense putting the stops on the Delaware Valley running game. Spotlighting TONY CARDINALE by Raymond McNulty If you happen to attend a Wilkes football game, take the time to watch No. 55, Tony Cardinale , and you will be treated to a display of skill and brute strength that is as subtle as that of a wild bull elephant.

The biggest thrill- for: Tony: "being elected as captain of the 1971 Wilkes Football Team." Tony has lettered for four years and started in three of them as an inside linebacker in the Wilkes 4-4-3 defense. "Mr. Inside" calls the defensive signals and rates the recognition of formations as the hardest aspect of being a linebacker; however, Tony says he really enjoys trying to second-guess the opposing quarterback. I think he forgot to add that he seldom guesses wrong! The talent of the senior from Totowa , NJ., is not limited to just the football field; Tony lettered in lacrosse last year. As a high school athlete he was All-Conference , All-County in football as well as Heavyweight District wrestling champion. Head Coach Rollie Schmidt collected his 50th win as Wilkes mentor when the Colonels defeated Delaware Valley 35-30. A challenge for the bold!

I ---------~by Steve Jones _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __ Grandmothers are generally noted for their infallible wisdom . One of my granny's favorite sayings is, "All that you do boys, do with your i.-:1ight ; things done by halves, boys, are never done right." Sorry , Grandma, but Colonel power dictates otherwise. Saturday afternoon the Colonels, ranked tenth in the nation in total defense, ranked fifth in polling for the Lambert Trophy and possessing the eighth leading rusher in the nation in the person of Ted Yeager, could do nothing right for one half a ball game. Things appeared grim indeed with the Colonels on the short end of a 17-3 score at the half, their only points coming via a Wilkes record-breaking 39-yard field goal by freshman Terry Blaum. Even radio station WBRE's Wilkes football announcers were - pessimistic about the outcome, commenting on the Wilkes lack of resiliency or "bounce-back" ability in previous seasons. But the Colonels had no misgivings about their abilities, despite being bottled up on the first half. Both the offense and defense came alive in the game's vesper portion with the cheering Colonel fans contributing to the team's momentum. Highlights of the Blue and Gold second half surge were a crucial interception by Ron Hillard, a tremendous goal line stand by the defensive "Golden Hoarde ," a 33-yard TD burst by Ted Yeager and two long scoring strikes from Jeff Giberson to Bill Horan. But the straw that broke the camel's bad~ was an ultra-electrifying 75-yard punt 'return by Garf Jones that gave the Colonels the lead for the first time, a lead they never relinquished . The Colonels' defense was burned for 307 yards in the air but held the Aggies to minus five yards rushing. Once again Wilkes forced the advantage in tum overs with the Colonels losing the ball only three times to fumbles and interceptions while Delaware Valley gave up the pigskin five times. The Schmidt defense will have their work really cut out for them this week with Ithaca featuring quarterback Doug Campbell who is notorious for his scrambling antics and is less than 300 yards short of rushing for 2000 yards in his career. Ithaca's been a thorn in the Colonel ;ide in their last two confrontations, with Ithaca first snapping the Blue-Gold 32-game win streak, and then last year downing the Colonels before the homefolk at Homecoming. This should give the Schmidt gang plenty of incentive for revenge . · Elsewhere on the sports front , Coach Tom Rokita's soccer team is making believers out of those teams and critics who labeled them as "not a serious contender" for the MAC championship. Chip Eaton, Ed Garabedian , George Bene Hoane,. Bob Linaberry and Gary Mocha just to name a few , are doing a super job that is reflected by the Colonels 5-1 (Continued on Page 12) season's record. Toughest opponent remaining on the Wilkes schedule is Elizabethtown where a Colonel victory could well spell "championship" fo r, the hooters. HA RRIERs GA I N wI N Slate At 5-1 by Jim Godlewski The Wilkes College Boaters continued their winning ways by gaining victories over the Mules of Muhlenberg, 3-1 , on Wednesday and the Warriors of Lycoming, 3-2, on Saturday . The victories brought the Wilkster record to 5-1 and gives them strong possibility of capturing Middle Atlantic Conference title hopes. · Leading the way for the Colonels against Muhlenberg were Ed Garabedian , Gary Mocha and Stellius Patokias. With goals coming via 19 :41 of the first quarter and 21 :00 and 12:29 of the second qurater, the Blue and Gold had no trouble securing victory No. 4. Chip Eaton and Jerry Blade combined for 23 saves plus some all-out effort by the whole squad proved to be the decisive factor. On Saturday the hooters traveled to Williamsport to meet a tough Lycoming squad. With both teams getting blanked in the first quarter, Wilkes came storming back by scoring goals in 13:45 and 14:47 of the second quarter. Lycoming generated a score with 16:08 of the second quarter by Ed Garabedian and Stellius Patkias respectively to give the Colonels a lead which they never relinquished. George Bene-Hoane continued his fine play by blasting a score in 18:21 of the fourth quarter. Highlights showed Chip Eaton registering eight saves, Gridiron Guesses by Raymond McNulty Wilkes To Edge Ithaca Ithaca gets the first-hand opportunity to solve the riddle - What's tougher to crack than diamonds and Fort Knox? Answer - the Wilkes College defense. It was Ithaca who snapped the 3 2-game win streak of the Colonels and also conquered our squad last year by a 25-21 margin. The Bombers of Ithaca feature 6'2" 205-lb . Doug Campbell, regarded as one L the best running quarterbacks in the East. Don't bother to shed any tears for Wilkes. The Colonels will counter with Ted Yeager , the senior 7 scatback who is constantly breaki ng his own records, and the offensive 1 line which is just starting to jell as a unit. The "educated" toe of Blaum could prove to be decisive in the Wilkes campaign for the Lambert bowl. ' Juniata To Defeat Lycomi ng In a battle of "has-beens" the Juniata team seems ready to avenge last year's 29-14 loss. The Indians of Juniata have 22 returning starters and have shown some improvement as revealed by the 6-6 tie with Albright, a team which beat Lycoming 20-3.

After holding the Aggies in check for three plays, the defense topped this effort with a blocked punt which rolled out of the endzone for a two-point safety for the Colonels. Wilkes had the lead of 29-23 . On their next possession, Yeager, the Wilkes All-American followed blocks· by Horan and Yanora to race 33 yards into paydirt. The score now read 23-35 in favor of Wilkes. This game will go down as one of the greatest come-from-behind wins in Wilkes history since the 1965 win over Lebanon Valley. ·THE PITCH (From Page 11) only lifted the score but also lifted the Wilkes spirit. Commenting on the game, Coach Foster stated that it was one of the first times that unity was displayed by the Colonelettes.

PRICE The annual Red Cross drive will be held on the Wilkes College campus through the month of March, Robert W . Partridge announced yesterday. Partridge, the Wyoming Valley Red Cross chapter's drive chairman at the college, as well as Student Activities Director, pointed out that last year the college went over its $300 quota by some $30 and will have that same $300 to work for in the present campaign . In connection with the Red Cross, Wilkes usually exceeds its blood donation goal as well, he added . Money will go in even greater amount to help the local chapter in financing that highly important blood collection program, inasmuch as all chapters are now faced with more financial responsibility than in the past. The colleges of this area fall under the Public Service Division in the campaign, headed by P. P . Olszewski, while the general drive, which must collect some $133,670 is under the chairmanship of Joseph De Vizia. It is exceedingl y important that a s much of the quota be met as is at all possible, for the overall quota this year has become greater than ever before. Forms have· gone out to Club and Class presidents, and those unable to contribute through either, may contact Partridge. Besides the expensive blood program, the organization also supports or provides materials for Nurses Aides, Canteens, Grey Lady service, and other services for hospital patients in both local and Veterans' hospital s. Its motor service aids the hospitals, clinics and other agendes. These services entail costs which nwst be paid.

Cue and Curtain· To Give i-Aclers; Students lo Direct FLANNERY TODEFEND EXTEMPORANEOUSTITLE The Wilk es College debating team left yesterday for Meadville, Pa., where they will take part in the Debating Association of Pennsylvan ia Colleges' annual tournament to be h eld this weekend. Of particular concern to the local team will be a feature aside from pure debating, the extemporaneous speaking contest, in which the defending state champion will be Wilkes' J . Harold Flannery, Jr., who also placed second in the extemporaneous even t at Dartmouth last week. In the debating proper, each team entered will compete in five preliminary rounds, then in a number of eliminations. They will argue the question of United States recognition of Communist China. On the Wilkes affirmative side will be Leslie Weiner and James Neveras, while Jesse Choper and Flannery will uphold the negative. In addition to th e debate and ext emporaneo us speaking contests, the Wilkes team will also compete in the oratory event, in which Virg inia Brehm is entered. She will speak on "Are We P ersecuting Our Teachers?" · The t eam will be accompanied by its coach , Dr. Arthur N. Kruger, who will also serve as member 9f the D.S.P.C. board this year. while veteran Nick Flannery was named seco nd in ext emporaneous speaking. Harvard won the to urnament, ten rounds to twelv e.

TDR Asked to Renew Freshman Scholarship By NORMA DAVIS At a recent meeting of Theta Delta Rho, it was disclosed that the $100 scholarship presented annually to a freshman girl may be reinstated. The scholarship was abandon ed t hi s year in favor of a charity project. Mrs. Doane, expressing the wishes of the Administrative Council, said that they would like to see the scholarship c;ontinued. She said that sh e believed that one reas on for the discontinuation of the scholarship was the inability of the girls to raise the n ecessary money. Howe ve r, the Administrative Council offered to supplement the mon ey of the girls so that the scholarship could be continued, Mrs. Doane said.

Mr. Kniffen has tned to look at the parking problem at Wilkes with the student's viewpoint. He has called special sessions of his administrators and has met with groups from the college, all with a mind twoard doing something to "give the students a break." . This thoughtfulness and sincere effort, much of it during a tune when the Mayor has been in ill health, has not been unappreciated by the Wilkes student body, we're sure. Certainly things are better now than at the beginning of the year and, according to the city head's intended plans, will continue to improve. Mayor Kniffen has nearly completed an intense study of the Wilkes Barre City traffic problem and he hopes to have recommendations for the near future. He will, he has assured us, keep the welfare of the Wilkes students in mind when he decides to make some changes in the Central City area. As a matter of fact, Mayor Kniffen has in mind several plans which could directly improve parking conditions at Wilkes. 'Tm just waiting to see how things work out," he said Wednesday, "but be sure to let the folks know that I haven't forgotten about them." The Mayor stated again that "it doesn't seem fair to penalize college students, many of whom are working their way through school, especially if they have a good reason for having violated parking regulations." He has accepted many tickets under the plan he devised earlier this year, accepting trustingly the explanations written on the reverse sides of the "tags". Now the three-hour, special Wilkes stickers are here and Mayor Kniffen assured u that his policemen will respect the new rule. Sure, parking is still in terrible shape here on campus, but doesn't it feel good to know that someone is interested in helping, instead of just giving tickets? A real friend of the college, we call the Mayor. Croatians Honor Mrs. Vujica By JANICE SCHUSTER Mrs. Nada Vujica, head of the Wilkes College library, was recently honored for her excellent writing of prose at the New York Croatian Academy's Literary Evening. The librarian-author began writing most of her English stories while a student of Mrs. Williams here at Wilkes, and she attributes the inspiration of many of her writings to the students whom she comes in contact with in the library. The Croatian Academy is an institution for people who are interest ed in Croatian Literature, History, and Art; and the members .ionsist of Croatian immigrants, Americans of Croatian descent, and any American citizen who might be interested in the academy. Mrs . Vujica, who considers her writing to be a "pleasant hobby" , was introduced by Professor Reeve of Fordham University as one of th e two principle s peakers of the evening at the Literary Evening held to honor her and another writer, Mr. Niyetes. Professor Reeve is president of the academy. The two honored guests, Mrs. Vujica and Mr. Niyetes, read their prose alternately. Mrs. Vujica read ***** Debaters Deserve Credit Perhaps the defeat of the debating team last week was not as "tragic" as it seems. We'll admit that the Dartmouth Tourney would have been a great one to win, especially with a large representation of Ivy League Schools at the tourney. But, and we realize we have one of the best debating teams in the country, it does you good to lose once in a while. Perhaps a fresh start at Allegheny this week-end will see the boys back in their old and winning form. Certainly they deserve as much credit as we can possibly give them for their top-notch performances all year. We wish them well at the State Tournament. And, as an afterthought, we can't afford to win too many in a row, anyway, or we might be accused of subsidising debating. ***** And, Then, The Cagers Then there was the basketball game Wednesday night. The team has had a much better season than we or even the most optimistic of All Jeters could possibly have believed. That high score, the biggest we can remember in our days of following the Colonels, stands as a bit of a triumph for a bunch of guys who started with a strike against them at the beginning of the year. They were not expected to come close t olast year's fine team, and the pressure of trying to do just that hurt them early in the season. But they came through. And no matter how bad a night the other team might have had (and don't forget Harpur dumped the Colonels last year to deprive them of a winning season) Wilkes had to put the ball through the hoop liike crazy to surpass the once-hallowed cen- ' tury mark. Hats off, boys, we say. You've done well. Lu Adds lo WC Cosmopolitanism By BILL DeMA YO "A cosmopolitan group, Wilkes teachers . . . bring to the College a breadth of experience and of vision that enables them to treat their subjects in large perspective .. ." The foregoing, quoted from the Wilkes College Bulletin, is testimony to the school's policy of mainta;•ning a faculty which will enrich the students by the diversity of their background and experience. A new add ition this year, Dr. Ch'ung Tai Lu, is an instructor in the Wilkes Economic Department,• and with Dr. Hoh-Cheung Mui of the History Department (now in his fourth year at Wilkes ) raises the representation from their homeland, China, to two. Dr. Lu left his hometown of Peking to come to the ·United States on a scholarship not long before the Communist forces took complete control of China, and probably would have been back there now had the situation not taken such a drastic change. Most of Dr. Lu's pre-graduate schooling took place in missionary schools. As he explained, there are several outstanding Chinese civil schools, but the missionary schools maintain uniform high standards. Students attending the missionary schools paid tuition and were not obliged to commit themselves to the ·religion sponsoring the school. So that when, in 1943, Dr. Lu graduated from the Congregation Mission middle school and ent ered Fujen Univxersity, a Catholic mission school, h e did not even ha ve to change hats. At Fujen (pronounced foo -yen) he was encouraged to continue his studies in the United States becaus e of the high average he maintained there. To make this possible the officials at the University aided Dr. Lu in gaining a scholarship to the Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C. After his graduation in 1947 from Fujen Dr. Lu proceeded to Cath olic University where he finished his work for his Master's degree in 1951. His work for a doctorate was done at the Uni versity of Maryland. The latter involved the fo rmula tio n of a theory for the economic development of under-d eveloped co untries. Friday, March 4, 1955 The theme of all of the recent writings of the Wilkes faculty member is about a country that accepted all refugees and immigrants after the war and the struggle of these people to assimilate into the new surroundings and ways of life. Mrs. Vujica has had two of her short stories printed in the Wilkes literary magazine, The Manuscript. Mrs. Vujica was graduated from t h e State University of Zagreb in . Yugoslavia in 1941 and received supplementary degree in this country at Marywood College. E ven before she was graduated from the ·u niversity in her native .country, Mrs . Vujica produced a book of poems caHed, "The Distance is Calling"; a book of prose, "The ~ Sunset on the Tiber", which · is a description of her travels in Italy; Mrs. Nada Vuiica and a biogi·aphical novel called, "The Three Generations" . two sho rt stories; one in English She was also co-editor of a woand one in Croatian, and a short men's magazine and wrote many essay on Amer ica. articles which appeared in magaA New York publish er has sent zines and newspapers.

These books are from her personal library and include works on economics, political science, history, sociology, and literature. They constitute a worthwhile contribution to the college as a whole. Mrs. Williams left Wilkes College in the summer of 1953 after being with us approximately ten years as a journalism instructor as well as dean of women. Mrs. Williams will leave for a six-month trip to Europe shortly and wis hed to give the books to .t he college before she left. She intends to visit England, the home of her ancestors. Previous to this intended trip, she has t ravelled in Spain ·a nd other European countries. According to Mrs. Vujica, the Wilkes College librarian, the books will be placed on the library shelves before the end of the semester. Much processing has to be done and when this task is completed, these books will be of incalculable benefit to the student body.

DALE, Prop. �Wilkes MG Owner Sees Sport Car Fad on Increase By JACK CAVE The popularity of the sport car is increasing every day. Each year more and more families are buying, as a second car, one of the mighty midgets of the highways. The sport car was once opposed by the majority of the people because of the way it was driven. There used to be very few sport cars in this co untry, and the people that had them thought they were on a race track every time they got behind th e wheel. Those fortunate enough to be driving a foreign car, were always trying to impress their motoring brothers driving Detroit products. They careened about, top down, blasting horns, with arms waving in ·the breeze waving at other sport cars. With antics like these, it is no wonder that the other drivers on the highway became nervous wrecks from the sound of, and shudd ered at the sight of a sport car. Today, because of its economy of operation and easy maneuverability, the s·port car is rapidly b ecoming a common sight on the highways. There is no car in this co untry, in production, which can match the gas mileage one gets with an MG, Austin or any of the smaller cars. The body style of a foreign _car is in a class of its own. The MG, until 1954, looked like something that H enry Ford threw out in 1929. The MG also has riding qualities which are not matched by any of the American cars. Riding in one, you feel as if the tires, instead of being round are flat, on four sides. You don't really mind the ride thou g h, for after the ordeal that you have to go through to get into one, you are glad to be able to sit down, but then there are other sport cars. They must be good for more than rabble -rousing on the road, for the number, even in W yoming Valley has seen a steady climb. The little monsters are becoming quite a common sight running up and down South River Street. At the present we only have two Wilkes students who own MG's, but there are a number of others who are thinking of investing in one. Can't you see it now. Here you are, in the summer sports car capital of the world each summer. You too can enter the Giants Despair Hill Climb or even the road races at Brynfn Tyddn . Why not rustle up five or six thousand bucks and invest in a summer of frustration, fire drills and hospital bills?

W·hitmer is among those individuals who, though having achieved some notoriety in private life and having attained a degree of success in a profession, realize that formal education is without a substitute. It is to men like he that younger students may turn when they ponder, "Why am I here at Wilkes; is it really worth it?" Typically mild mannered, the congenial pastor makes his dynamic thinking and excellent oratorical ability apparent to students even in classroom recitation. "He really can get a point across," one student remarked without knowing the young pastor's background. The Rev. Whitmer resides in Freeland, Pa., with his wife, the former Eva S. Hoffman, and his two children. He has been the pastor of the Bethel Baptist Church there since 1952. His parish of 75, perhaps small by present day standards, is extremely energetic and willing to assume responsibilities. H e has said that these excellent traits make it possible for him to participate in full time study. A native of Shamokin, Pa., he served with the United States Army during 1945-46.

However, th e big guns of J ohn Bresnahan, Jim Ferris, and Ennis will be loaded for bear to help bring the season to well deserved ha,p py ending. Carl Van Dyke, Joe Jablonski are also on deck to raise th e victory stock of the Blue and Gold. In r ecent games Ralston has used substituti ons more freely than he was able to earlier this year and in som e cases has reverted back to the two platoon system. Petrilak, Dick Bunn, Jo e Popple, Ed Troutman, and Cliff Brautigan are on hand for these chores. Player Shortage Within the span of a couple of months we've noticed several articles in national publications giving out with th e idea that the sportsminded segment of our pop ulation is becoming more and more spectator-minded and less participationminded. Various reasons are given for this phenomenon ranging from televisi9n right down to plain laziness. It may be so and w e have no argument one way or th e other. But one thing is s ure and that is that such is not th e case on the Wilkes campus. To our way of thinking there has been more participation in sports programs at the sc h o o I this year than has been seen in quite some time. The i n c r e a s e , has been very noticeable in the intramural program and the AL JETER n ew ideas that have com e up, the latest being bowling competition which includes both m ale students and co-eds. Ancient History Looking back into some almost forgotten pages of Wilkes history we find intra-mural teams have been a part of the school for some time.

Faculty Performers Open Big Show Herc Many Talented Troupers Secured for Great er Season Are Lad-ees and gentlemen-we prcscn~ for the first time before any collegiate audience in the country-Mr. Donald ·Stillman in his initial performance starring in his outstanding role of Professor · of English in Bucknell Junior College. Give him a big hand, friends. Mr. Stillman hail:< from the metropolis of Forty-Fort and comes before us highly recommended by his townsfolk and .his administrator3 at Lafayette and The University of Michigan, where he spent years to •train hinisel f for this perfoJ"mance which we have .the· pleasure of witnes.;ing here in this Greater Show Season of the Junior College. Part of the star's valuable training for this memorable event included five ye.a.rs of teaching at Peddie, <1- New Jersey preparatory school for boys. The featured attraction offered by the management is the introduction of two well known favorites who have appeared with this troupe before. In--tro·ducing for your drlight and entertainment, P1-ofessors Oliphant and Keller, instructors in History and Economics respectively. · The · management wishes to state in reference to the first exhibit that he is really quite harmle.;s. Step right up ladies and gentlemen-don't be afraid, little boy- that's right, come closer. Dr. Oliphant, despite his ferocious air, has ll(';vcr been known to actually harm a soul. Of ·cou·rse he does pace a bit in the classroom and seem as if he is about to jump right down your throat when he ask; a question but don't be frightened, he won't. Mr. Keller, also a featured performer, is characterized among those of us who know him best by his genius, his biting sarcasm and his peculiar brow-wipi~g exercise which he, of necessity, indulg~ in about every five mihutes by actual timing. The management feels sure that there· need be no introduction for our next attraction. We have the pleasure of presenting once more· for your approval-Mr. Vincent McCrossen . This star is our own, our very own. Never has he been sullied by contact with any other student body as an administrator. Mr. McCrossen is beloved by all of U3 who have come to know him but we must admit that he has us all stumped in trying tc:i achieve in any like degree of perf~tion his enunciation of (Contim·ed OD P~r.~ 4) D irector.

During the past Summer months while ~05t co~ege students were bu;ily engaged discovenng novel positions of relaxation either among the city flies and mosquitoes qr the more grown up pests of the country, Bucknell's baby was experiencing most violent growing pains; cutting "new teeth" and blarini; forth, to the world in general, .and to Wilkes-Barre in particular, its iden· ' *Y- .

Befitting• the work done in the interior of the ;;chool building arc three large "Bucknell University" signs· to arrest the roving eye, two running almost the entire height of the building on either side and one standing out like a gold tooth, above the main portal. It has been rumored that pla!)s are bemg_made to install a five hundred foot Neon sign on the roof for the benefit of 3tratospherc flyers and i1_1habi·tants of nearby planets. In addition to major remodelling . pro,jccts, the entire building was cleaned and· made ready for use from cellar to roof. Incidmtally a great battle was waged during the scrubbing campaign between Janitor Loftus and his "stooges", and a most persistent army of water bugs.

EDITOR MAXWELL EDWARDS ASSOCIATE EDITORS )OE LoRD AMBROSE SARICKS ELEANOR ScUREMAN SPORTS EDITOR LESTER SuLLUM DRAMATICS EDITOR EMMET MALLOY C JRCULATION MGR. TOM MAYOCK GREETINGS Sever.ii days ago, a group of courageous students of literary tendencies met for the avowed and menacing purpose of planning for a Junior College publi.:ation. The circulation of this literary gem was to be re· stricted to those fortunate individuals en• rolled at 29 West Northampton Street. Classes were attended; the stars waned and waxed, and before long these suspici• ous·looking students began to engage in a unique proces.; known as thought which was recently introduced to them by Prof. Godcharles. The brain-child of this mental strain now announces itself as The Bison Stampede. '(he editorial staff would like to extend its thanks to the contributors to this paper. The opportunities for partici· pation of the individual in producing this publication will be many, for contributions will be received at all times, and these will be published in relation to the breadth of interest, as space allows, at the discretion of the editors. STUDENT BUDGET Among the many features of college life, which the average Freshman finds puzzling, is the fee for the Student Budget. What will be the use of the appropriation? What will be the benefits derived from its use? or will there be any benefits? are some of the · questions frequently asked, and some which must be answered within the near future . As it has been found that a firm finan • cial basis to start with is almo.st equivalent to success in any business undertaking, the importance of a student budget to the com· l'nittee or committees planning a social event is self explanatory. The Sophomore class found it extr_emely difficult to plan their affairs of last year, chiefly because they had no way of knowing before hand whether the undertaking would be a financial success. The use of the Stu· dent Budget immediately eliminates this un· certainty for the committee already has a sound base upon which to plan its enter· tainment. Naturally, the free admission of all students to any of these affairs is under• stoo<l. Realizing, however, that the sum of five dollars each semester cannot possibly finance every undertaking of the students. it re· mains to be decided as to which branch of activities or to which of our undertakings this money should finance . Should the money be apportioned to in· elude an "Artists Course" as we had last year, when such prominent artists as Paul Althaus, of the Metropolitan Opera Company, and Dorothy Sands appeared under our ;tuspices? Or should some be appor• tioned for use in obtaining Y. M. C . A: and Y. W . C . A. memberships? ( which would solve some of the athletic problems of the school) Should each club (Dramatic, Ger• man, Sciel)ce, etc.) be alloted a certain sum to help carry on its activities? Or should all of it be alloted to support the Athletic pro· gram? These and many other questions are to be brought up for debate, as soon as a pro· posed Student·FacuLty Congress can be or• ganized for that purpose Until such time then, we must content ourselves, realizing that every effort is being made to iron out this problem, along with the many others which are besetting the Administration. Letters fl'om students. to the editot of the Stampede W'ill be published if brief and signed. 'They will not necessarily express the views of the Stampede -on any subject. The forthcoming _election of officials for the Sophomore class which will be held Tuesday, October 9, to be preceded by the nomination of candidates on the first Tues• day in October, has arrived at the point where the question .. . Should politics have a place in College Elections? . . . may be a-~ked with a great deal of emphasis. This question is all in good order since one of the leading candidates for the presi• dency of the class 1s carrying on a political campaign with such vigor and intensity that such political dignitaries as a Huey Long, and a William S. Vare would be forced to hide their countenances in humilation be· cause of the mildness in which they carry on their respective campaigns. Many of us fail to appreciate the value of such a clique in our college. For example .. . the candidate . . shall we call him Mr. X? . .. must evident• ly be a student well versed in history and politics. I say this because he has returned to the principles of Jackson by his resort jng to the "Spoils Sy3tem" in an endeavor to achieve the coveted office of the presiden· cy. Mr. X has promised various offices to tho.se who will be so kind as to help him receive a few votes from the district they represent. Mr. X to further his political aspirations is sacrificing valuable study ses-· sions in order to become a swash-buckling, back-slapping, hand-shaking, woman-hon:ie· companion, and, when we realize that $10. is the price paid for one semester hour of study, perhaps his campaigning has its merits. However, the troublesome aspect of Mr. X and his campaign is the quietness with which it is being conducted. Mr. X refers to his campaign as the "Grapevine System". But why? Why not expose your• self Mr. X and give us few unfortunates the rare treat of feasting our tired eyes up• un your political personage. We feel, Mr. X, that by your whispering campaign you have reduced the Sophomore election to a point where it is anything but sports-man-like. No, Mr. X, we, the sane of the student body, with a faint tinge of fairness refuse to allow our elections to be dominated by a candidate who.se only method of receiving votes is based upon the "Spoib System" of the Jacksonian Era. You need enlightenment Mr. X, you are living in a new era. An era marked with high ideals as a standard. And to this standan.l you have proved yourself an alien. In our college life, which is brief, we want no cli• ques and as for promises which we would not accept and which you arc fully aware you cannot fullfil we will lend no ear. In everyone there is an infinite desire to gain prominence in his college life but let us endeavor to achieve our goal in a. clear sports-man-like manner and if we are not equal to the ta.sk ·let us not buy our way. Popularity 1s a · sparkling and intoxicating drink but when the sparkle is gone let us be sure there is something left, something which is vital · to human existence. Make this something be a friendship which is binding and lasting, gained by strength of character alone and not by flim3y promises and bribes. We all have a task tp perform on Octo· ber 9, and that task is to eliminate politics from our college elections. A t e we equal to the task? When selecting the candid;1te for whom you intend to vote, base your selection upon your own convictions as to his ability in the capacity to which he aspires. Judge your candidate upon his· bearing and actions not by what he says. -------- l'LL NOT REGRET TODAY You grind and plug and stu_d y hard, And see what you can do.

They wore their usual bright and chee.ry smiles, and some went so far as to bring apples for the teachers. Prof. Keller refused all apples, and told the willful givers to bring peaches the _next time that they came to class. Besides the cheery smiles, and the apples, there were other things that added to the college atmosphere. The Junior College's young freshmen came all decked out in black tics, name · cards, and, among the fairer sex, there was a beautiful showing of green bow hair rib, bons. When Justin O ' Donnell, president of the ex-freshman class, saw that the girls a·ll wore green, he shouted '?,'ith joy, "There is no color like the beautiful color of green ." However when he saw that the freshm en all had cards that gave their entire life history at · a glance, several men had 'to hold his sides to keep them from splitting. "They buttered their bread, now they will have tQ lie in it.," giggled Justin. A little light was cast on the subject of college life when the Freshmen boys produced the matches that ·they had been reque.;ted to carry. Freshmen supplied the Soph class until the supply of cigarettes ran out. Of course there has been a little neglect on the part of the freshmen in carrying out all of the rules. Many freshmen have been seen strolling around the campus (South Main Street and Public Square.) with their books so held as to hide their little name card's. Few of the freshmen realize that they are in danger of getting lost in this wide, wide, world unless they have their • address pinned right on them . There is no way for , the officers of the beat to know where to send them. This danger will pass to a certain extent when the freshmen team t.o find their way about this city. A few of the men students have come to school without their black ties, but they will m~nd their ways if the 't errible anger of the enforcement committee ever is .brought to b~ar on them. · However, as a rule, the freshmen have complied with the rules that were set before them . Furthermore, they 'have shown that they are good sports when it comes to matters of th.is kind. The Freshmen "can take it" to use the slang phra~ with the same meaning. The "Sophs" feel proud of the fact that they are being followed by such good sports. It was noted that there was one serious offense committed. Mr. Faint came to school without any of the required tags, ties and so on. The Enforcement Com-· mission has. taken steps to decide what will be done in the matter. One member of the committee made the motion that all checks due to the college be held up until Mr. Faint comes with his black tie and name card. It has not as yet been learned whether the motion was carried. �Page Four FACULTY PERFORMERS (Continued from l'a.ge 1) THE BISON STAMPEDE Hall, teacher of Physics, complete with moustache and no extra charge!

With the influi of new material, Buck• nell Junior College is ·looking forward to a promising year in sports. The frosh pros• pects combined with the sophomore men from last year should provide seve.ral good athletic teams for the Blue and Orange. Due to lack of available material and late· ness of the season there probably will be no football team. However if enough students desire to play foot~! and exprw their _de· sire to Director Eisenhauer, intra-mural contests will be arranged. Emphasis this year will be on basketball. The entire squad from last year has return• ed and several high school stars have en· tered school as freshmen . I:Iold-overs. from last year's team are: · Captain John Sw~n-· gal, Kolonoski, V. Loftus, B. Riemensnyder, John O'Donnell, J. Salsburg, J. Mallahan, and Bob Goss. In the incoming c1ass we find the follow· ing as great possibilities : Gunari, a member of Luzerne championship team two ye~rs ago, Mill formerly from Coughlin, Tuck~r, captain of last year's Meyers High tea,m and Masloskl, of Nanticoke. With this formi•. dable array of talent nothing but a strong team can be· expected. The schedule this year is extremely· ditficult.

No. 2 O'Donnell Again Choice For Class President Bison Joins G. O. P. Elephant and Democratic Mule As Political :~ascot __._ Last week, the Buc~ncll Bisun changed his quarters for a few days. · He was herded intp that well-known cor• ral which has as permanent.residents a much featured elephant and a· more· featured' donkey. We have n·ot as yet been able to interview the Bison after his return but we hope that he remains pure and untarnished after his experience. Mr. Faint, who fed our distinguished mascot, did. his part by making sure that his food was only of the best quality. To do this, Mr. Faint used a little ·box differing from other little boxes in that it boasted a slit in the top. Through this little slit, the contributed . food was collected, and, strange · to say, there were only 79 portions of food contributed by 79 people. This may be explained by the fact that the aforesaid Mr. Filint guarded carefully the foodbox and prevented any generous heart from contributing two or three portions. After consuming this enormous meal, our Bison retired for a little rest, but soon, being touched by· the constant trumpeting of the cl~phan_t and the braying of the donkey, he bellowed forth in stentorian ·voice. Loudest in .hi$ cries was the name of Justin O'Donnell, whom he wished to make his president. We feel sure that Justin is grate• ful to 'the Bison, and. we arc also confident that the latter will have much reason to be satisfied with his choice. J u~tin believes in doing a job well, and. after his service last .· year a's president of the then F rcshma~ class, he is prepared to practice what he preaches. The Sophomore class will have a tried ,and capable leader in Justin O'Donnell. ·" Continuing his shouts of tremendous volume, the Bi50n rooted for another boy; this time, Frank Antonelli, whom he wished to name as his treasurer. Frank's ability is in• vcrscly proportional to his size, so don ' t be misled. Frank is a new choice for the Bison to ·make, but we arc sure that i't ~ill prove to be a wise ~nc. Our mascot then ceased his bellowing and commenced to .croon. And when a B'ison docs this he is ,certainly fond of some one. His crooning was directed at two girls for whom he has a warm place in his heart.

One views with a certain pleasure the orderly, tense atmosphere that prevailed dur• ing 'the Sophomore election of class officers. The commendable display of fellowship and good-will shown at the polls · proves t~at Bucknell has an abundance of that feeling of friendly rivalry, the essence of which. is one of the most desirable benefits to be derived from · any competitive activity in collegiate life. As in any election, there were certain controversies c<>ncerning the merits of the nominees. Several of the opposing supporters engaged in heated arguments in an effort to "put over'' their chosen leader. Others had objections which they did not hesit.te to voice. However, when the final results were posted, much <>f the passing feeling of animosity was forgotten in a combined effort to congratulate the winners. On the whole the precedent set by the Sophomore class was not a poor one; the frcshin11" r.lass could well affortl tc, profit by thi: ex .. mplc. FERA Provides Work For 17 Students 8 Freshmen And 9 Sophomores In Part Time College And State Work The allotment of FERA m<>nies to Bucknell University permits the employment on a part-time basis during the present academic year of seventeen students enrolled in Bucknell University Juni<>r College. Each student so employed is paid at the rate of 50 cents an hour and may earn a maximum of $15 a month, or a total of $135 for the college year. Students employed under the FERA are selected on the basis of scholastic ability and pecuniary need. Employment is open l<> both men and women students. Of the seventeen Junior College students now employed, eight are freshmen and nine arc sophomores. Eleven of these are employed in services for the college and six in community welfare work. For two months during the college year six of these students will do some special work for the State department of. education in connution with "An.

But the suggestion that they might promote boredom gives rise to the suspicion that such a subject is unwelcome, and, if I may suggest it, resented. Most of us have lived together at least one school year, and·among many it is a common . opinion that this subicct deserves a timely exposure. I do not sit in any scat o( judgment condemning the puppets of, this board. Such crass arrogance is .not my choice, nor to my liking, although some would think it typical. For, I, too, am a puppet, and must answer when called. And this call 'is nothing more than the .Spirit of Good Will and Co-operation which demands of each individual his or her dcstrc to work for the common good. From time to time incidents arose in the past year which nccc.ssitated the wholehearted backing of the student body. I need not dwell extensively . upon .unpleasant details; Athletic teams were organized. , Plays were attempted, and da.nces were offered. To what extent were, they patronized 'l Perhaps other needs were present at the moment, but surely- such an apology . cannot be gracefully offered for such a la rge number. · A new unit of class officers has been elected.

After the noon assembly on Tuesday, Oct• ober 16, the freshman cl<1.ss convened to select nominees for the various class offices. The custom started last year of having the officers serve only until some time in Decem· ber, at which time permanent officers are elected, was continued by this year's class. To avoid disagree;;;ents, similar to those which were evident during the sophomore elections last week, the class decided that all officers would be elected by i' plurality vote. Because of the ability -of the presiding chairman, Professor Gold, nominations were soon under way. The nominees for the four offices are as foliows : for president, Nick Cubic, Bob Mayock, Bob Myers, and Alex Curnow; for vicepresident, Jack Hurley, Fred Semmer; for secreta,ry. Betty Bittenbender. Lillian. Jarvis, Anne Hirko; for treasurer. Chuck Connors, Frank Alexander, John Judge, John Malkames, and Robert ·Beach Extensive campaigning by several of the prominent candidates, a heritage from the Sophomores, has lent a typical election atmosphere to the general spirit, and it might be added that this technique has been carried to even greater heights. Ba:nd wagons, hand-shaking, log-rolling, placards, and all the other campaigning paraphernalia will soon be evident wh~n the second Freshman class of Bucknell Junior College elects temporary leaders. • "Bucknell Junior College marches. ahead'' for it is through the quality of the freshmen that any university advances.

The Dramatics Society met on Fri• day, October I 9, to elect officers. Dr. Churchill, acting in place of Mr. Keller, outlined the qualifications that should be con• sidered in selecting the officers. In view of these qualifications the society chose the following; President, Eleanor Scureman; vice-president. Robert Beach; secretary, Mar· jorie Richards ; Business manager, John O'Donneli. The next meeting. held October 26, serv• ed to acquaint tl\e members of the club with the .program for · the first seme,ter as outlined by a program committee previously ap• pointed by the president. Members of this committee worked in conjunction with the officers . The tentative program presented included talks and demonstrations on makeup, acting, costuming, and stagecraft to be giv• en by local person$ interested in these lines of dramatic activity. Beca4se no specific time had been set for meetings it was impossible to announce the names of those who would appear Qn the various programs. Laboratory plays and one full-length production are also scheduled fo r the fir st semester. The society will meet twice a month but it has not· yet been decided whether the meetings will be held in the evening or during the afternoon. It is planned lo develop special interest groups for those who are genuinely interested in particular phases of dramatics. These groups will meet directly after the general meetings . . A one-act play. "Barga"ins in Cathay" has been chosen to be presented Friday, Novem• ber 16, as a part of the program for Open Hou se which is lo be held al• the College that evening.

(Continued on Page O ~ h·: .. ~ ·. 1 On Tuesday, October 24. the freshmen and the sophomore classes elected representatives to the Student Council. In accordance with the new plan this year, three ·freshmen and four sophomores were elected. The president of the freshman class will be the fourth representative from the new class. Justin O'Donnell, president of the sophomore class, will act as chairman of the group. Sixteen sophomores were nominated for the four positions. The four successful canclidates were : Hubert Hart, Ambrose Saric ks, Thomas Toole, and Joseph Salsburg, each of whom secured more than 20 votes, The so• phomore race was unus~ally close, only a few votes ·separating each candidate. Of the four elected, only one, Joseph Salsburg, served on last year's councii. Out of a field of 12 candidates in the freshman elections, Thomas Knilf, Jack Hurle·y, .ind Robert Beach were the three successful candidates. Kniff won easily with a margin of six votes over his nfarest competitor, Jack Hurley. Beach received four votes less than Hurley. The first important duty of this competent gro up will be to decide how the st udent budget fu11d is to be apportioned among the various student organizations of the c;ollege. All student activities have been hanclicapped up to the present because no organi,ution has been able to plan its program fo r the year without knowing how much money it could expect fr.om !he student budget fund. When this question is decided, · the various clubs and athletic teams will have some definite allotmel)t with which to begin its activities. The five major activities to be· supported by the funds are athletics, dramatics, Glee Club, debating, and publications. At the time of this printing no meeting of the council have been held because of the delay in holdin g the ele~tions and the difficulty of finding a suitable time . for meetinj!. One of the matters scheduled to come before the council is the question of having an Artists Course for the coming year.

At the initial meeting of the term new officers were elected and in• stalled, and other important business was discussed. Aside from selecting officers the most important business brought before the club was the admitlancc of new members. The argu• mcnts were finally ended with a unanimous decision to admit new members ·a t the next regular meeting. The next subject for discussion was the Club's ·activities for the coming year. The program · outl\ncd promiaca to be interesting, and the president expects a very successful year for the " good fellowship society". The following officers were elected: President, fra nk Antonelli; vice-president, Thomas T oolc; secretary, Francis Rudniciki: treasurer, Michael Solomon.
