THOUGHTS IN THE
BREEZE
By JANE REINMILLER
At the HUC radio show on Oct. 17
it was evident that Jane Kenvin did
not give a visiting Westerner a fa
vorable reception when she doused
him from her perch in the WAZL
Studios, seventh floor, Hazleton Na
tional , Bank. The angry recipient be
came all the more enraged when he
stormed into the elevator and the
boy asked him if it were raining out
side! It took a half-hour but the glee
club finally pacified him.
If you haven't already done so be
sure to notice the resemblence be
tween freshman D. D. O'Donnell and
Van Johnson.

If you don't—you're lax and don't
want to learn.
If you liven up the class with some
remark—you're a wise guy.
If you don't—you're a dead head.
If you ask questions in class—you
want everyone to look your way.
If you don't you're understood
to know everything.
If you're seen talking to one of
your instructors—you're apple pol
ishing.
If you're not as sure as HUC
stands for Hazleton Undergraduate
Center, there'll be some gossip flying
around about you. If you can figure

A few of our fellow co-eds who so
willingly participated in the RUC
'float could tell us a few interesting
remarks they overheard from the
sidelines. The worn expression,
"State Penn" for Penn State, was a
repeated, playful pun.
Marguerite Rondish and Grace
Mcßride still don't know if they ap
peared undernourished or what, but
they do know that spectators tossed
peanuts their wCy: - more than once.
Believe it or not, some of our vets
still cling to their service careers and
what is more, they are going out of
their way to continue phases of it.
Margaret Kohier, ex-Spar, and sev
eral other vets who have acquired the
title, "ham operatbr" (amateur radio
operator), are attempting to organ
ize a club of their own.
Now to sit and wait for another
breeze and more thoughts.
HAZLETON COLLEGIAN
WANTED ALIVE:
CARTOONISTS
• ,Do you know someone who draws a
fairly recognizable picture? SURE
YOU DD! That's my man—or men.
How often do you sit in class, gazing
out of the window or scribbling with
your pencil or pen on the covers of
your notebooks, thinking of easier
ways to go to college than the way
you're going now? Lost time can pay
dividends if you've got a good doodle
that you think someone would get a
kick out of and here is the way to go
about getting those dividends.
The Art Editor of the Hazleton
Collegian needs cartoonists, or as you
may know them, good doodlers. All
you have to do is this: If you notice
someone in class scribbling away dur
ing a lecture on something other than
his notebook and it has a humorous
appeal that you think the student body
would enjoy . seeing in the COLLE
GIAN, just bring it on a scrap paper
to the Hazleton Collegian office and
mark it for the attention of the Art
Editor. He'll do the rest. All students
are invited to join in on this Cartoonist
Hunt and anyone who has a talent for
sketching is welcome to submit his or
her handiwork to the Collegian office.
Personal recognition will be accorded
to all those who have their cartoons
or sketches printed in the Center's
newspaper. Personal satisfaction of
seeing your cartoons in print giving
laughs to others, as well as yourself,
really is the biggest dividend of all.
Your cooperation will help make your
paper a success and a source of in
spiration to all who read it.
Inquiring Reporter
By GEORGE DEMSHOCK
This year the student body at the
HUC is the largest ever. As Mr.
Goss stated in his introductory re
marks during registration week HUC
was established here as a •convenience
to those who wanted to attend col
lege and be free of the room and
board expenses which are accrued
when studying at an outlying college.
When asked why the HUC was
chosen as their school of learning,
a variety of answers was given.
QUESTION: Why did you choose
to attend the HUC?
Charles F. Andrews—(ex-G.l.)
"I find that my commuting from
Weatherly every day is less expensive
than if I were to attend a school a
greater distance from home."
Michael
"When I decided to start school, I
wanted to be near home. HUC, being
the best school in this region, solved
this problem for me."
Aaron W. Deitch "HUC was
highly recommended to me as a
school that would furnish an excel
lent education, yet, still be in a posi
tion to be close to home."
Mary 'Claypotch—"Several friends
of mine, who once attended HUC and
are now at the Campus recommended
this college to me, and at the same
time, I have the opportunity to be at
home."
Joseph H. DeS antis-- (ex-G.l.)
"The fact that HUC is rated very
high scholastically, and secondly,
that living conditions around here
are less expensive than if you were
to attend a college elsewhere."
Faculty Chatter
By NAOMI GOSS
Have you heard the story about
the peacock? No? It's a beautiful
tail. Then there's the tale of Miss
Thomas' fire drill each student is
requested to take a microscope in
one hand and his textbook in the
other—thus they will be able to set
up business anywhere with no time
lost.
Are you planning a siesta trip to
New Mexico? If you are—be sure to
visit • the newly established HEX
Traveler's Bureau. Jimmy Steel is
the new proprietor—ln spite of blue
books, and eight o'clocks, some of
your faculty have found time to
"make the news" in various commun
ity affairs. Amos A. Goss, Adminis
trative Head, took over his duties as
the new President of the Conyngham
P.T.A. on October 27th. Miss Dossen
bach served as chairman of the hos
pitality committee for the October
meeting of the American Association
of University Women. The Misses
Erlemann, Leichty and Wood were
guests at the same meeting.
"Miss B" of the office force became
Mrs. Bernard Levash on October 25.
The wedding took place in the Trans
figuration Church of West Hazleton,
followed by a wedding dinner and
reception at Lamina's. Mrs. Carmen
Hersker, wife of local Attorney John
Hersker, and a special student in
German at HUC, is recuperating at
her home from an attack of virus
pneumonia.
Special orchids should go to Ar
thur Carpenter, Amos Goss, Melvine
Levine, Joe Pavone, Sydney Rudman
and Arthur Seibel for the beautiful
tfloat representing PENN STATE
IN HAZLETON in the recent mum
mers parade—end another orchid to
the students who assisted in the ar
rangements and in the actual con
struction—and still another to those
who were willing to participate in the
showing.
Mrs. Hazelton and Miss Erlemann
journeyed to Jeffersonville, N. Y., to
spend the week end at the farm of
the latter's parents Mr. Mattern,
Mr. Goss and Yours Truly were
among the twenty-two thousand
spectators at the Penn State-West
Virginia football game. Distin
guished guests at the Center this past
week included David B. Pugh, Super
visor of the Penn State Undergrad
uate Centers, Dr. B. V. Moore, Head
of the Psychology Department at
Penn State, and Mr. T. J. Gates,
Head of , the Department of English
Composition.
And as Porky Pig says,"That's all,
folks—there ain't no more".
Blue Books at HUC Do Not
Necessarily Determine Grades
The Blue Book Examinations do
not necessarily determine the fourth
week grade. It was stated to this re
porter from an authoritative source
that the Blue Books, hour quizzes,
will have no connection with fourth
week marks, except where the indi
vidual teacher wills it. The grades
made in these quizzes are to be used
for the teacher's personal records.
