Council Elections Near
Undoubtedly your Student. Council largely determines the
use of your extra-curricular time and money. It's only common
sense that you elect your representatives with discretion. In view
of the numerous nominating petitions now circulating about the
building, such caution is advisable, for in the hands of the elected
rests the future of your extra-curricular activities.
In the near future you will vote for persons to serve as your
representatives. Ponder over your choice. It is assumed that all
persons enrolled in HUC are of honorable character; however,
traits of dependability, initiative and good judgment are prereq
uisites to be thoroughly considered before selecting your candi
date.
Eliminate that punchboard, devil may care attitude that ex
ists throughout election periods and weigh the possibilities of
each aspirant- for office, for they, using the vernacular in the
street, will become your "mouthpiece", your administrative rep
resentative.
It is your duty to eliminate any trend toward cliques that
dominate student government and to elect equally responsible
persons who are capable of giving fair and satisfactory represen
tations to all concerned.
We of the Collegian staff wish to acquaint you of the student
body with our policies. We are a student publication and as such
-wre are held accountable for our policy to the student body. We
want you to know that this is your newspaper. It is here that you
will find expressed your news and opinions.
Ahe editors will welcome at any time suggestions for the bet
terment of either the Collegian or the school as a whole. We also
pledge that we shall to the best of our ability present the facts
about any student activity. As the national press scrutinizes the
work of our national political machinery, so shall we hold the
Student Council's activities in sight. The vigilant press is the
watchdog of democracy and democracy starts in the small places.

Something new has been added in
the world of fashion! Longer skirts.
softly curved shoulders, and flared
skirts go together to give the modern
girl with that New Look. One can al
most hear the bagpipes playing when
the gala Scotch plaids, accented by
crisp white collars and cuffs are seen.
The longer suit jackets are belted,
topping the new-length skirts. Used
in this year's suits are wools, cordu
roys, and velveteens in harvest hues.
setter fitting sweaters in novelty
weaves complement the knife pleated
skirts. The word for fashions today
is femininity. Your ankle-hugging
socks are in sweater-mated colors;
the belts are narrow. Stealing the
fashion scene is the hooded greatcoat
with the full gored back and high
collar. Fitted coats trimmed with fur
are also in the fashion parade this
season. Hats are off the brow, giving
the wearers that "wide awake" look.
You will be seeing the nautical like
middy dresses and overblouses with
the clever sailor ties. Bracelet length
sleeves, the dropped waistlines, and
the poetic Byron collars are featured
in plaid dresses which are "back to
school" favorites. Also seen are the
young looking and becoming jewel
necklines, push up sleeves and swing
skirts.
The world changes and fashions
with it. Even though there are varied
opinions about the new skirt length,
the girls will accept it, for who wants
to be out of style!

FACULTY
CHATTER
By NAOMI P. GOSS
There was plenty of chatter around
the Broad street building this week,
but faculty members were too snowed
under by the incoming freshmen to
indulge in much of the talk.
Miss Bonn says she counts comp.
placement cards now, before going to
sleep instead of the proverbial sheep
—Miss Garbrick emerged from an
all night counting session looking as
fresh as a daisy—a September daisy,
that is—Between sessions with news
reporters, Mr. and Mrs. Seibel found
the time to move into their new
home on Carlton avenue in the
Heights—if you find some extra time
on your hands, drop in and they will
be glad to put you to work I
dropped in at the Broad street build
ing recently and saw a beautiful
green and cream Chevrolet—it's the
new property of Joe Pavone, instruc
tor in engineering and drawing.
Frank Entierro, college sopho
more, helped Miss James find living
quarters—Miss Staffiera is still look
ing for a nice lady who will provide
home cooked meals so come on,
gang, perk up and come across with
some suggestions—When I speak of
food I always think of Genetti's res
taurant—Next time you visit Gen
etti's be sure to notice Freddie Hou
ser's necktie—lt's decorated with a
musical cleff and was presented to
him by a member of the H. U. C.
faculty Mr. Martin, one of last
year's instructors in chemistry, 'hag
gone to the main campus of Penn
State to continue his studies toward
an advanced degree—Miss James re
ceived her master's degree at Buck
nell University shortly before joining
the Center staff here in Hazleton.
The Carpenter family found plenty
of excitement when they returned
from a local movie house recently
and found smoke emerging from
every crack and crevice The fire
fighters arrived only to discover that
the motor in the refrigerator was on
fire—The Carpenters are now look
ing for a new refrigerator Miss
Thomas visited on her home stomp
ing grounds and took in the Blooms
burg Fair at the same time—Most
of the new feminine members of our
faculty family feel that the clean air
of Hazleton is quite invigorating, and
they have developed healthy 'appe
tites Mr. Seibel insists that I fill
two typewritten pages says he's
short of copy and I'm short of
news.
One of the sophomores reminded
me that everyone should take in the
floor show at Chunky's Well, I
must put this column to bed now—l
want to call Hazleton 3498 and see
if I can make an appointment to talk
with my husband sometime within
the next week.
