Digging into the heap that rep
resents our files of other Center pap
ers, we find that there are some things
that have been done by our Center
brethren. In fact there are some defin
ite firsts. Along sports lane: Pottsville
has a group of students agitating for
a baseball club with the final decision
probably turning into an Inter-class
Softball organization. Also in Potts
ville there is a movement for the
holding of a Barn dance. And the gam
ut of clubs includes a Psychology club.
The Pottsville delegation has still an
other game room sport. . .that of dart
slinging with a grand finale in a Dart
Tournament. And in real style, the
basketball champs, Pottsville Center’s
cagers were feted at a banquet on
March 28 at Shartlesville.
Dußois has finally broken the ice
with a brand new idea: That of hav
ing a contest to determine the relative
ratings of the Centers on the basis of
their Glee Club, Debating Club and
Publications. The Dußois Center pos
sesses a men’s Glee Club and Male
Quartet; also a Dramatic Club that
goes in for three act plays.
The Fayette Center is offering night
classes in Art and German. On their
roster of clubs is a gathering that had
christened itself the 'Fuzzy Lip’ Club
and has recently changed its heading
to the 'Congressional Kibitzers.’ This
group meets to solve world problems.
The Uniontown bunch come through
with ideas in wholesale lots. The Fay
ette Music Appreciation Club has
started a series of radio broadcasts on
the local station at Uniontown. The
music presented is mostly classical,
and music of a different composer is
presented each week with a different
member of the club acting as com
mentator on each program.
Alumni News
Frederick Holderman, alumnus of
’37 is continuing his studies at the
Wharton School of Business. And we
hear that Carl Schmidt, also of that
year, has made an honorary fraternity
at State. Charles Gallagher, one of the
thirty-sev<en original Centerites, has
recently taken a position at Ed Hoch’s
gas station. Lewis Smith, who will be
remembered as last year’s freshman
class president, has enrolled under the
new army pilot training service and
is now at Philadelphia. And it seems
almost a certainty that Flarry Zadra,
alumnus of ’37 will be editor of the
Penn State Engineer next year. Ger
trude Hecht, member of last year’s
debating team again came through
this semester on the campus by mak
ing the varsity debating team.
*!* t'c it
Following the custom of past years,
the Alumni Association of the Center
will hold a general meeting at the
Center Banquet on June 7, to which
will be invited the present students
of the Center. At a meeting two new
members will be elected to the Board
of Directors, and the program for the
coming year discussed.
It is indispensible that the present
students of our Center attend this
meeting. Merely to keep from becom
ing anemic, any organization must
have a steady influx of new members.
And surely to grow stronger, it must
have a similar influx of vigorous
members.

HAZLETON COLLEGIAN
One of the aims of the Alumni is
to stage social affairs which will bring
the far-flung members together; a lot
of fun and good times from putting
on these parties, dances, or outings can
be promised to any future alumnus.
Possibly more important is the organ
ization’s purpose of aiding the Center,
an aim which speaks for itself.
The Alumni Association is a definite
organization with a constitution and
a set of officers, which a present
student at the Center is entitled to
join but is not admitted automatically
to membership when he leaves for an
other campus.
Each year the social calendar shows
a Christmas Dance, a Spring Dance, a
miscellaneous party, and several out
ings during the summer. Three or four
meetings are held throughout the year,
and the Board of Directors meet fre
quently to keep the organization’s
business running smoothly.

Former Librarian
Recuperating At Home
Miss Genevra Richards, who will
be remembered as our librarian of a
few months past and who was forced
to leave because of ill health, is re
cuperating at her home after an oper
ation in the Hazleton State Hospital.
Miss Richards is a graduate of
Penn State College, class of ’3B, and
was one of the thirty-seven who at
tended the Center in its first year in
Hazleton. During the short time that
she was attached to our library, Miss
Richards became well liked by the
student body and incorporated many
innovations into our library system.
