WINTER IN
RETROSPECT
For the record, the Highacres
Campus was not hybernating
this winter. The students and
faculty, did, indeed, join
together in a flurry of activities.
First on the list was the
Winter Weekend which was held
February 9-11. The festivities
began with ice skating at.
Stradnick's pond on Friday
night. Saturday night was the
Hazleton-Scranton basketball
game at M.P.B. followed by a
coffee house in the S.U.B.
Entertainment for that evening
was Bruce Vanderpool, an
accomplished folk-rock singer.
Sunday consisted of toboggan
runs at the Country Club and
general outdoor frolicking. The
weekend ended with the film
"Road to Bali" and a few
Roadrunner cartoons in C-1.
The first few weeks of
February meant a change of
scenery for a few administrative
offices and student
organizations. The rooms in the
Main Building, which had once
housed the library, were quickly
remodeled and utilized. Student
Affairs and Dean McCallus
moved from the Memorial
building to the Main Building.
Continueing Education relocated
in the Dean's old headquarters,
which provided more room in
the Memorial Building for the
faculty. The Business Office
moved from the -S.U.B. to the
Main Building. The Student
Government Association was
given custody of the old
Business Office, leaving the
room in the S.U.B. basement to
the HIGHACRES COLLEGIAN
which moved its belongings from
the attic of the Memorial
building. The scene for these few
days was a parking lot
criss-crossed by people carrying
tables, chairs, records, and office
equipment.
On Friday, March 2, the
students and faculty presented
Comeriety Night. The highlight
of which was Mr. Price's play
SPEED & BODY SHOP
Wayne & Ridge Ave. West. Hazleton, Pa.. 18201
"Murder in MacAdoo" starring
Mr. Campbell, Mrs. Jago, Dr.
Orbin, Dr. Covert, Mr: Sebasta
and Mr. Fogelson. Other stellar
performers were the faculty
chorus, the Crazy B's and a cast
of thousands.
On . March 8, Herrick and
Handler, performing artists,
filled the air of C-1 with the
sounds of flute and guitar. The
evening was one of musical
excitement as these two
accomplished musicians played
pieces ranging in variety from
the Renaissance to original
compositions by Mr. Handler
and his contemporaries. _
Highacres's
winter-wonderland also saw the
S.G.A. sponsering several films.
in C-1. The showings were such
films as "LaStrada," "THX
1138," "The Great British Train
Robbery," "McCabe and Mrs.
Miller," "Samurai," "The
Arrangement," and "The Twelve
Chairs." The S.G.A. also
purchased a piano, game
machine and shuffle board table
for the gameroom.
Other campus organizations
were also busy. WHCB, the
broadcasting club, experimented
with broadcasting over the
S.U.B. sound system, the
Literary Magazine began
organizing for publication in the
Spring, and a group of students
expanded campus
communication by organizing a
newsletter. For some students it
was a rewarding term.
Winter is &et, aiid - SFiring — ig
here. Enjoy it!

Collegian Moves
You may have been
wondering (or you may not)
exactly what the COLLEGIAN
has been up to for the winter
term. Not much, it may appear,
but appearances are deceiving.
The staff spent the first few
weeks of the winter term
adjusting to our beautiful new
office. We are now located
downstairs in the SUB
gameroom (just to the right of
the pinball machines). The new
facilities are much larger and
permit us to entertain more
guests. If you have any questions
or just like to bullshit, come
down and visit the staff. We are
now hard at work on our new
issue, and we will be happy for
any diversion.
Also included in our new
facilities are a number of
sorely-needed supplies, and we
wish to thank Student Affairs
and Mr. Kostos for their help in
making the newspaper run more
smoothly.

Kafka Judge in
Writing Contest
Andrew Kafka, amember of
our faculty, has been named a
regional judge for the 1973
program, Achievement Awards
in Writing, of the National
Council of Teachers of English.
This national competition,
now in its sixteenth year, cites
approximately 850 high school
seniors for excellence in writing
and recommends them to
colleges and universities for
admission and for financial aid,
if needed. The students are
nominated for achievement
awards in writing by their high
school English departments and
are chosen for the awards by
state judging committees on the
basis of an autobiography, an
impromptu theme and a sample
of best writing.
In addition to this honor,
Professor Kafka, the faculty
advisor to the Belles-Lettres
Society, has been very
instrumental in making both the
Fourteenth Annual Regional
High School Dramatic Reading
Festival and the Fifteenth
Annual Highacres Dramatic
Reading Festival great successes.
