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. During the operations on the auditorium a gr~ ;;pot was found on a squeaky board in one corner of the ·room. Sad to say, that is all that remains of last year's orthophonic victrola.

On the second floor, the large room in the rear was converted into a most attractive library, thoroughly . equipped, which, with its yearly expansion will become a decidedly acceptable addition to the college and the community. During the waxing of the library floor it is reported that an exhibition in plain and fancy skating was given by two of our Park Avenue sophomores. In addition to the classrooms on the second floor the{e has been furnished a ladies' lounge room quite replete with green and rose cushioned divans and chairs.

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.

If not, why not? We want every sophomore and every Freshman who is physically fit to come for at least one of the sports activities which we expect to participate in as the season progresses. Basketball, hockey, swimming, and tennis is the program. These are not just diversions they add zest and enthusiasm to your school li(e. Your physical education is important. The beneficial results to health derived from well regulated exercise are recommended and recognized by all medical authorities. Then again, we all want t~ keep that school girl figure.

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!
