USGA President
Speaks to PACC
Woven throughout a speech de
livered by Benjamin Novak to the
Press Association of Common
wealth Campuses in September, at
which Hazleton was represented,
was the theme of appearance ver
sus reality. Mr. Novak, President
of the University Park Under
graduate Government, expressed
his views on what the Student
Government Association really is
and stands for and how the cam
pus newspapers affect . SGA’s
image.
“What does Student Govern
ment do?” asked Novak. He be
lieves that unfair criticism is
often thrust upon its members be
fore a detailed examination is
made. Further, he said that the
important aspect to be brought, to
attention is groundwork, not just
the grand successes or dire fail
ures of such an organization, SGA
could not be expected to right ev
ery wrong on campus and campus
newspapers should' not imply such.
Novak compares SGA to the
United Nations in that both have
no real power; both are not gov
ernments. Both SGA and the UN
are heterogeneous and permeated,
in many instances with petty mo
tivations and ambitions.
Novak stressed “behind the
scenes” work. As in newspaper
work, in SGA much goes on that
is never brought to the fore
ground. Many persons work hard
laying the groundwork or working
out details of various projects.
Most of these persons never re
ceive due credit for their earnest
efforts.
With all these little efforts in
mind, Novak related the fact that
a newspaper can block SGA’s far
reaching strivings. A newspaper
“can make us look like blundering '
CLUB NEWS AND
Officers Are Elected
Along with the opening of the
fall term came the initial meetr
ings of many of the clubs on cam
pus. Presently, these clubs are
busy getting organized and elect
ing their respective officers.
Theta Sigma Pi
On Tuesday afternoon, Oct. 6,
the sophomore and freshmen girls
held the first sorority meeting of
the fall: term. Elections were held
and the following were chosen as
officers: ;
President: Karen Krietzberger
Vice-president: Nancy Israel
Secretary: Ann Marie Petras
Treasurer: Susan Ike
Publicity: Blossom Miller
' At a candlelight ceremony held
on Thursday, October 8, twenty
five freshmen girls were formally
initiated into the sorority. Plans
for an informal initiation were
discussed, and it was decided that
this initiation would take place on
Tuesday, October 13. The faculty
advisor of the sorority is Mrs.
Elizabeth Bodenstein.:
Physical Culture Club
The Physical Culture Club un
der the supervision of Mr. Alfred
Leister held its first meeting on
Tuesday, October 6. This is a club
for boys who are interested in
weight-lifting. Safety procedures
concerning this activity
stressed and enforced. Officers, as
of yet, have not been chosen. The
election date is tentative.
Circle K
On Thursday, October 8, the
Circle K held its first meeting.
Gary Hagenbach presided over the
meeting. New members were in
ducted into the club. At this meet
ing it was decided that a fine will
be imposed upon anyone whose
books are found cluttering the
idiots or true successes,” he said,
“and what SGA runs into in
apathy can be traced to newspaper
influence.” This is why he believes
a newspaper must be objective. It
has the obligation to meet the
need of its readers in saying
“what has to be said or ought to
be said,” he explains. By taking
into view the total effect of things,
one is in a better position for a
truly objective look at things.
As a final consideration, Novak
suggested that a campus news
paper see SGA as a metropolitan
newspaper might see the United
States and consequently treat it in
like manner. A newspaper might
print a story on the Bobby Baker
case, but this would not mean that
its love for its country was any
less.
ACTIVITIES
tables in the SUB. Various com
mittees have been formed to see
that this ruling will be enforced*
As of this date, elections have
not been held. Plans to hold elec
tions will be discussed at the next
meeting.
