The Forum A Reply To ·i~h e Editor, We have taken it upon ourselv~t:i to write this letter at the req uest ot many !1ludent9 who read with just indignation the remarks of the ' 'humble Observer" which appeal'ed in the last iesue of the Bison Stampede. While we d eeply appreciate th~ interest t aken by this . ''Uriah Heep", we are Inclined to be just a bit dub·i ous when considerIng hie motives. The main group picked tor BlalJ.f(hter was the Sigma Nu Sigma. This socie• ty was crt=aled tor the .sole purpose of binding together certain students who had common lntere!lta and no longer cared to be annoyed by ce rtain lam e • brained pereons with their pett'y quar. rels and aspirations. The name "Gar denia" which th e Observer has used in connection with thi s society is an example of onfl of the weak-minded jokes beard from the lame br:ains who were mentioned above. It Is not our purl)O.sc, however, to otter any explanation tor the origin of the Si,gma Nu Sifema or to defend it, since w e care not tn the least wbat appears In the Bison Stam • pede or anywhere else.

The Art Of Pamphleteering (Continued from Page J.) l1:1 a masterpi ece of compact a nd skilfully presented material Fepresent1ng high schol ai-shtp and serious thlnJdng, but In a style a ltogeth er -enjoyable and readable. The two Items cited at the h eact of this column eeem to i h e reviewer outstandln~. Those who have not yet learned that Mr. Secretary Wallace is something more than a polltlclan, and that he re veals some of the most thoughtful arid painstaking statesmanship to be found In any public figure of the present, can not delay In ma·kln.g his acquai n tance. The pamphlet, 11 America Must ·Choose'', is eerious and sober to a -degree. It ought, if w idely disseminated and extensively perused, to go tar to direct. public •POiicy ot the United States on the ha.Sis of .. intelllgence. It ts, or can be (dependi n g upon th e extent to which It actually .Is read), a landmark in the formative influences now at work tn the present period of change, ot r ef1ection, and ot Cll,lculat"lon. As tor llterary style, there ts solllethtn.g here ot . dec id ed excellence, quite unlike the wearisome ness ot the utterances of most public figures, ot this or of any other daY. Professor Blakeslee's contribution to the se ries is entitl ed to r~~k with Secreta.ry Wallace's. It ts the scholarly work. ot a n acknowJedged scholar, but it is designed for the lay reader. • To say that the subject ot his pamphlet, "Confl icts ot Polley In the Far East", ts of more than ordinary importance for the American public ls trite. To say that the pref!entatlon Is as excellent as the :cmbJect warrants is to set this pamphlet apart from most ot the current output on this theme. Scholars will derive nothing new from BlQ.kesle.e's treatment except In organization, and in literary style of presentation. But the public has need tor Just the service th1a 9:cholar renders, In fur nl s hlng an unimpassioned cl"tttcal stOdy ot matters traughi with serious conse .. quences. It 1, no accident that his pami>hlet has . created a - small eeneation In Japan, wh ere It ls r eceived with mlngled emotions, prlnclpally adverse. These two pamphlets are due to ex : erclse a soctal influence cit considerable magnitude In the United States. But to be etrecttve they •m ust be r ead. They cost but twenty-five cents. · D : J .

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER I, I 934. VOL. I Dramatics To Rank As lqiportant Activity Mr. Kelle~To · Direct One-Act Play For Open House Dramatics promis ~ be) an important activity in the Junior College in the coming season. 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. Tryouts for this play were scheduled, but at the time of this writing the cast of characters was as yet unknown . · Mr. Keller will direct all productions throughout the year and hopes to be able lo present three major, full -length plays.

The three-day program will begin Friday night with an evening ·of entertainment. A play by dramatics students has been tehtatively arranged and several musical numbers are scheduled. · · On Saturday, November I 7, the ~olhige class rooms and offices will be thrown open · to the public for inspection. between IO a. m. and- 10 p. m. Sunday afternoon from 2 to 5 also will be set aside for the open ~use.

To Decide Apportionment Of Student Funds For Activities League Sponsors Social Function Proceeds Wi11 Be Utilized In The Furnishing Of Women's L(>unge Tomorrow night marks the opening of the round of social activities of the season at the Junior Colle,ge. This first affair, a semiformal dance sponsored by the Women Students, promises to be a social" high-light of the year. The dance is to be held in the a u'd itorium, Friday, November 2. The committee in charge has as its -chairman, Helen Arms, who is supported by Jean MacKeeby. Sally Hinton, Irma Hewitt, Jean Armstrong, Marion Peters, Eleanor Scureman and Hilda Fletcher. The committee has put forth grea, effort to arrange an enjoyable evening for all who attend. Junior Maguire'.s ten-piece orchestra is the featured attraction. ·Tue comm~ttee feels C'Onfident that success is assured by the enthusiasm evidenced in both the Freshman and ·Sophomore classes. Dancing. will be from eight until twelve. Each student is encouraged to invite outside guests, but it is requested that the names of all outside couples be submitted to some member of the committee before the dance. The price of admission is fifty cents for each person · and ticke.ts may be purchased from ~~~;: ant-a\0 ~~i~~~:'.1,e7~6=C:~ v.·iv been m vited to act as chaperones. (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. One of the policies of the council, as expressed ~¥ Mr. Gold, director of student activities, is that every organization operating directly or indirectly under the name of Buck:·d! lJr.i•- t, s:t·; ••I ·• 1,a. i , 'ar.·r!•:r r..~ ·:r~7.

A GRANDIOSE SCHEME Ivy Lee, that master of publicity and one of the world's most learned men in the science of propaganda, recently addressed a private group of persons concerned with international affairs, in London, on "The Probblems of International Prop.tganda.'' Typi• cally, Mr. Lee has sent copies of his speech to editors on his list, together with his -per• ·sonal compliments. The man who is credited with having persuaded John D. Rockefeller, Sr., to pass out new dimes so freely, now has .envisioned a vast program of national propaganda, truth-ful as well as favorable, carried on in other countries. He suggests that each nation should strive to make itself understood by other nations of the world, an end which re• quires t~e use of .intelligent propaganda. Mr. Lee remarks, and correctly, that "ig• norance of one another keeps the souls pf.. nations. apart.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

PERASH The 19'55 edition of the annual Wilkes College Science Show opens tonight at 8 with the chemistry, physics, engineering, biology and mathematics departments combining to present exhibits · of interest to scientific minded high school students from throughout the valley. The single show tonight will be followed by three shows tomorrow starting at 10 a .m., 2 p.m., and 8 p.m. Each show will begin with a 30-minute talk and demonstration in the Lecture Hall. Guided tours of the laboratories and classrooms in Conyngham Hall and the Biology Building will follow. Heading the exposition this year is Dr. Charles B. Reif, h ead of the departm ent of biology at Wilkes. He will be assisted by the heads of the other departments of science. Each department will have its own displays with students standing by to explain exhibits and perform visual experiments. Admission by Ticket Invitations have been sent to high school teachers, principals, as well as seniors in all valley schools who are interested in science as careers. Because of the limited space available, admission to all four shows will be by ticket only. There will be 250 tickets issued for each show. Several new exhibits will be included this year. Preparations have been underway for the past week in the various science buildings. 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. Wilkes defeated Smith, St. Anselm's, Vermont and MIT. Last weekend wa s an unhapp y one for the Wilkes debaters as they dropped eight out of twelve to be knocked out of th e running in the Dartmouth tournament. However, despite the overpower ing op1)osition from some of the Ivy League's best, t h e local team managed to salvage some gloTy on the individual level.

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?

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.

The victory snapp ed a long losi ng s treak for the Wilkes lassies. The feminine cagers were re stri ct ed to the use of freshmen and sophomores in the battle, which was a rough handicap to overcome. Des pite th e disadvantage, the Wilkes girls put their hair up and proceded to take the Keystone dolls apart piece by piece. The charges of Coach Toni Shoemaker jumped off, grabbed an early lead and never lost it throughout the game. At the end of the first period the Colonel cuties held a 12 to 9 advantage.

The game marked the last home contest for team captain Harry "Skinny" Enni s and old standb y Parker P etrilak. Harry collected 16 points in his limited a ction while P etrilak hit for 17 tallies. Carl Van Dyke was high man for the Colonels with 19 markers. Jim F erris rounded out the double figure scorers by garne ring 13 points. The victory gives the netmen a seasonal record of ten wins against eight losses. Two more games remain on the road before the season i s history. The win also atones for the loss suffered by the W•C men last year against the upst<1ters. IT'S A WOMAN'S WORLD - EVEN IN SPORTS; BARBARA VAVREK LANDS 'PLAYER' TITLE In gaining the player of the week titl e, Barbara Vavrek beco mes th e first coed to cop th e titl e.

This game was tough all the way for the locals, but they were able to pull victory out of the bag i n the last minute . of play. Last week th e T eachers handed King's Coflege a 15 point margin setback. Much earli er in the season, the Blue and Gold hoopsters registered their fir st victory of the season against Stroudsburg by a 78 to 75 count. Thi s game also proved to be no pushover for the netmen. Superb foul shooting turned the tide of victory. The end of th e season will bring the playing days of Harry 'Skinny' Ennis and Parker 'the old pro' Petrilak to an end. A Winner Coach George Ralston would like very much to take the remaining battles inasmuch as victories in both would bring him one of his most successful seasons as far as percentages go . Last year he saw hopes of a winning season crumble in the last game of the campaign. 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.
