SUB
This term the Student Union
Board hopes to run better at
tended activities. Activities are
being planned including some
crazy new ideas, such as Bowling
for Onion Rings, and traditional
activities such as coffeehouses
and the SUB annual. Movie Orgy.
Other activities include a flower
sale on Valentines Day, Lounge
Lizard Days, pool, ping-pong,
backgammon, and possibly
bowling tournaments, and a
greased rhinocerous catching
contest (where we’ll get a
greased rhino, we haven’t quite
worked out yet).
The Student Union Board
needs new members. These
members are needed to help run
and organize this years’ ac
tivities and also provide ex
perienced members for next
year.
Student Union Board meetings
are held Wednesday nights at
6:30 in the Commons, and
everyone is invited.
TO "THE POINT
OF KNOW
RETURN"
On November 10th at 10:00
a.m., three Highacres volunteers
and' andvisor piled suitcases,
albums, a backgammon board,
and, of course, themselves into a
Penn State stationwagon (driven
by S.U.B.’s “fearless” advisor)
and headed south -- to “The
Point of Know Return.” Now
that you are thoroughly con
fused, I guess my next step is to
explain. The volunteers were:
Rob Blyler, Robin Troymasky,
and myself, Joanne Moer
schbacher; the fearless advisor
was assistant dean Ev Binns;
and “The Point of Know Return”
was the annual ACU-I Region 4
conference held this • year at
West Virginia University in
Morgantown. As we left, we
weren’t exactly sure of at we
were getting ourselves into, but
Ev kept telling us that as soon

CHORUS
STEVE KADAR
Staff Writer
The chorus is one of those
groups on campus that you do
not hear much about. This is not
to say that they are inactive.
For example, this month the
chorus will be performing at the
Luthern Home, St. Luke Man
ner, and MMI, December 20th.
The chorus will present a short
Christmas program during the
lunch period in C-l. Students,
faculty and staff are invited to
bring their lunch up to C-l for
this free presentation.
Like many groups on campus,
the chorus must fihfd ways to
make money. The recent candy
sale was successful, and another
way to make money is to hold
Mini-Jamb sessions, where
students with musical talents
perform. These sessions will be
held in C-l during the winter
term. Door prizes will be awar
ded.
While most of us will be
trying to keep warm this term, a
few of us will be down in
Disney world. The chorus is
going down on February 28th,
and returning March sth. The
cost for air fare, housing and ad
mission to Disneyworld is
$245.00. 36 people are signed to
go, but there is room for 3 more
people, so if interested . . .
NOTE: The average tem
perature in Hazleton is 25
degrees. The average tem
perature in Florida is 85
degrees. Something to think
about.
On February 2nd and, 3rd, the
chorus will have a Medieval Din
ner. This happens to be a dinner
at which there will be served
soup, roasted hens, flaming plum
pudding, roast beef, and a
wassail boul, a form of drink.
President
Parnassus recently held a suc
cessful book sale in the Com
mons in which $5O was raised'.
The. books were donated by
faculty and sold at very inex
pensive prices. The proceeds

JOHN POLLACK
President
During term break Circle K
made its first visit to the
Luthereran Nursing Home. Only
one word to describe it: fan
tastic. The joy that our visait
brought to these senior citizens
cannot be written.
When this project was first
brought to Circle K, I must say I
was very sceptical. I did not
think that people our age could
find anything in common with a
Senior Citizen. I hate to admit
that I was wrong. It was not the
least bit difficult to sit down and
strike up a conversation.
We will be making more visits
from time to time to the home.
If anyone is interested in joining
us please contact the project co
ordinators: Tricia Busher or
Rosalie Skrabach.
I would also like to take this
opportunity to thank Mrs.
Tamea and the staff of the Ad
ministration Building for baking
cookies which we were able to
take along on our visit.
On December 13, Circle K will
be manning a bell ringing station
a the Laurel Mall for the
benefit of the Salvation Army.
Coming Attraction:
Circle K first annual Bowl-a
thon in February, watch bulletin
boards for further details.
Along with this, there will be
the chorus singing songs of the
medieval time, wearing clothing
of the period and performing as
if you were in the medieval
times. The cost for all this is
$lO.OO to the public. It is hoped
that the cost for this event will
be covered by admission
charges. It is also hoped that on
Feb. 5, the same event can be
held for the student body at a
reduced cost.
were divided equally between
Parnassus and the library. The
books which were not sold were
turned over to Dr. Santulli for
donation to the Dallas State
Prison. All of our members par
ticipated and we thank all of the
students who boUght books.

RHC
AL CWALINA
I would like to welcome
everyone back from your term
break, I hope you had a great
time, and the Residence Hall
Council hopes you’ll have a good
winter term.
The Bloodmobile that was
sponsored by RHC was a huge
success. The final total of blood
received was 156 pints. Ther
were an additional 20 persons
willing to give but were
deferred because of medical
reasons. That sets a record for
the most blood ever collected at
the Hazleton campus. I would
like to thank all those who
helped to make the bloodmobile
a great success.
The tree decorating party was
a lot of fun. Many students
showed up to help decorate the
tree. Also, many students even
made their ornaments. There
was a pop corn stringing contest
between floors which second
floor girls won. I would also like
to thank Donna Ditty for doing a
great job on decorating the win
dows with spray snow.
On November 28th there was
an ice cream party in the lobby
of the Residence Hall. Any
RHSA member was allowed to
eat as much ice cream as he
wished.
On December 7th, pictures
were taken with the Nittany
Lion in front of the Christmas
tree. A total of 93 pictures were
taken.
RHC is also sponsoring ping
pong and pool tournaments.
Two new toboggans were pur
chased just this past week for
the upcoming winter. Any
RHSA member may use the
toboggans providing they sign
them out with either Janet
Harrington, Paul Huffman, or
Charlie Wayne.
On December T3feh, RHC is
sponsoring a Christmas Toga
Party. It will be held in the
Dorm Lobby and starts at 8:00
p.m. There will be free refresh
ments and lots of fun.
If anyone wishes, to attend an
RHC meeting, they arte held
Monday evenings at 6:00 in the
