Bob OorncilS (Continued from Page 2) Just what Bob has in mind for this year’s council can be summed up in these few words: “We’ll do our best to rectify any problems which may come up and also to operate for the students and not for individual recognition.” Bob’s hopes for the Council are mainly that it be efficient, respected, and Pi»kvtny by the pool are these popular dorm girls. They are, from left to right: Becky Wilson, Bonnie Hugos, Barbara Bell, Sue Hausen, Judy Young, Marilyn Pringle, Marilyn Bnebanioh, Harriet Szatkowski, Laurie Hill, Nancy Newman. ’Round the Town By Phyllis Stadler Let’s start off by wishing Happy Birthday to Honey Greenlee, who celebrated on September 28 and to Ronnie (Chief) Thomas, who celebrated on October 3. “Happy Birthday!” kids. What’s this about Jerry Adler trading his beautiful Mercury convertible in for a Ford sedan? It looks like quite a large group from Behrend are going down to the main campus for the Home coming Game. A few of them in clude: Bill Mong, Raleigh Ches ley, Jack Mallory, John Kolpien, Bill Schweitzer, Don McLaughlin, Phyllis Stadler, Gilbert Keinath, Clark Jamison, and Dick Webster. Gary Stultz went down to New Wilmington on October 1 to see the Westminster-Thiel football game. I hear he saw a few of the dorm girls down there. Honey Greenlee visited Edin boi’o State Teacher’s College, her old Alma Mater, on September 24 for a sorority breakfast and a football game. And speaking of Honey, have you noticed that she drives her jeep to school? Somebody is losing a lot of friends. He passed a lot of traf fic tickets out in the parking lot the other day. Now maybe a few people will know where not to park. It couldn’t be that our traf fic cop is Fred Loell? Did you know that Mary Ann Wasilewski gets up at 3:00 A. M. to do her homework? And I’m not kidding, either. I’m glad to see a few of us do something exciting on week ends. Chuck Hickin and Don Godfrey went to Cleveland at the begin ning of the month to see the Ice Capades. Bob Meehan is going to a dance at the Andrews School for Girls on October 15. And Bob Harris goes to Pittsburg every weekend to see his girl friend. Jeanette Flory was one of the few girls who were playing it safe during Freshman Customs. I guess she didn’t want an egg shampoo or lipstick all over her face like most of us. Those sophomore boys were really mean. Sonya Weidner wants you all to know that she bought a Perm State sweatshirt the other day. Did you see the beautiful ring that Paul Moon gave his girl on October 5? It’s beautiful! “Con gratulations,” Paul! utilized by the student body. The few paragraphs above have just touched the surfaoe of Bob’s views and accomplishments. Get to know your Student Council leader: his philosophy of life is fascinating. THE NITTANY CUB Dorm Council News Dorm Council is once more in full swing with its newly elected officers and members. They are: Gretchen Muth, president; Judy Young, vice president; Mary Lou Womer, secretary-treasurer; Har riet Szatkowski, Loretta Terlizzi, Donna Tokar, Marilyn Pringle, and Sue Hansen. The girls are kept busy seeing that things are organized around the dorm. Some of their duties include: seeing that the dorm is quiet dur ing study hours, checking rooms for neatness, and marking the names of the offenders in their little black books. Mrs. Helen Longnecker sees to it that infor mation is transmitted between the dorm students and the admin istration. Along with their other duties, the Council also plans social func tions such as the dance held Sat urday, October 8, in Erie Hall. There will also be other activities throughout the year in which they will lend a hand. The girls should be commended on a big job well done. Dorm Chatter By Eileen Kowalczyk Straight from the dorm come these flashes: Bonnie Hugus, a cute freshmen, has been getting the rush from two sophomore boys on campus. Why not let the other girls in on your secret, Bonnie? The girls in the dorm have been complaining about our popular gal, Donna Tokar. Seems that Donna ties up the phone with all her phone calls. Christmas was rushed a little this year. Several weeks ago Judy Young dressed as Santa Claus and traveled to all the rooms with her pack on her back wishing every one a Merry Christmas. If anyone is 'wondering what all the confusion in the dorm was the other night, ask the girls in the eight girl suite. It seems Gret chen Muth entertained them with her dancing across the .tops of the bunks. Gretch looked real “collegiate” (How about that, Marilyn?) with a scarf tied tur ban style around her head and a tennis racket as a sword. Not too funny! Mrs. Ann Ring, our housekeep er, has taken up a new profession as a beautician. Her first cus tomers were Harriet Szatkowski and Dot Blazer. Nancy Newman was the hap piest girl in the dorm, by far, the other night after she received a phone call from her boyfriend in California. What is this we hear about Judy Young and her golfing? Tell us about it sometime, Judy. How about the night Dot Blazer was exploring the roof of the dorm? Then there was the night Eileen Kowalczyk and Janie McCreary dressed up for their preview of the Homecoming Dance. Frankly, it looked more like a preview for Duffy’s Tavern, what do you think, girls? Marilyn Pringle, Linda Hamer, and Judy Young run for mail call everyday (the first ones to get there). Maybe they miss Paul, Bill, and Bill (respectively) who. axe all serving their country in the armed forces. MAYBE! Bye till next time. Featuring Jay Roling-Virfuoso By Beverly Smith Do you have a picture in your mind of what you think a violin ist should look like? Now com pare that picture with Jay Roling, who is an accomplished violinist. They really don’t look too much alike, do they? Jay, unlike most young boys, always wanted to play the violin. He received his first violin for Christmas the year he was in eighth grade. When he took it to school he was told he would never play because of a bad ear. Mr. Howard Schilken was his first teacher, and after Jay worked with him for six months he achieved Concert Master of Roose velt Junior High School. After he went to Academy, Jay played third chair, and very shortly be came Concert Master there. When he was in the tenth grade, ■Jay played in the Junior Philhar monic under the direction of Fritz Mahler. Last year, because of the help and guidance of Mr. William Hover, he obtained an audition from Dr. Sample, the director of Erie’s Philharmonic Orchestra, and for the past year has played second violin with the organiza tion. Jay’s favorite selections are “Hot Canary” by Paul Nero, and “Meditation” from Thais by Massere. The hardest piece he has ever played is Mendelsohn’s “Vio lin Concerto.” The violin Jay uses today was given to him two years ago by Mr. Schilken. It is an original Hopf, which Mr. Schilken played for the Cleveland Philharmonic. Though it was a dearly treasured item because of its background, he gave it to Jay as a gift. The violin was made in 1790 and brought to America before the War of 1812. One day during the war, the British ransacked the house of the owner. Not wanting the British to seize his prized pos session, he put the violin in a burlap bag and walked out with it as his sole possession. The strategy worked; the British did not take it from him. However, during the process, the violin received a few injuries in the belly (back). De spite this, it has only been re- paired once, in 1910 Jay likes to play the .violin strictly as a hobby. He would like, however, to continue playing for the Philharmonic. Jay would rather play for the public than for his friends—as he says, “They are much too civilized.” We do know that his friends will dispute that statement. Jay and his violin have taken part in many activities, namely: Duffy’s Tavern, when Chuck Agner and he imitated the liber aces, and, on the more serious side, at Eastertime he played “Ave Maria.” You can usually find Jay in the cafeteria pondering over the ar rangements for the Behrend Sing ers. He is now working on some Penn ' State songs. Jay, with. the help of his violin, is directing the chorus, and he seems quite hope ful for the coming events. Nittany Cub Gets Rolling The Nittany Cub staff will have the following organization, ac cording to Mr. Thurbon, student newspaper advisor. All staff members automatically qualify for pins at the end of the school year, but in order to be come full-fledged members eligi ble to receive pins they must meet certain requirements. Persons holding editorial posi tions during the term rate pins for the type of work they do. The writers, however, will be expected to turn in and have published in the Cub a definite number of column inches of copy the time the last edition comes out. The exact number will be posted in the Cub office at an early date. Students hoping to qualify as business staff members will be ex pected to procure from local mer chants a minimum of seven ads each. Forms for this purpose are available in the Cub office. Mr. Patterson, professor of mathematics, has kindly consent ed to handle most of the photo graphic work for the paper, but occasional art work, such as car tooning and the like, may be need ed and a student may find it pos sible to become a staff member and thereby rate a pin through this type of contribution.
