HUCKSTERS OPEN
SEASON NOVEMBER 23
Amid the final stretch of the foot
ball season, the Hazleton Undergra
duate Center will open their cage
season at the A. D. Thomas gymna
sium on November 23 against a pow
erful alumni squad.
Greeted by forty-five candidates
on the opening practice session,
October 10, Coach Rudman was im
pressed with the available material.
Practice sessions are being held three
times a week under the tutelage of
Coach Rudman and his able assistant
Johnny Apichella. The squad is shap
ing up nicely, and competition for
the first five is very keen.
Outstanding prospects vying for
the first five slots are George Woods,
Billy Gardener, Zach Taylor, Walt
Stanek, Leon Lefkowitz, Bill Habel
and Jimmy Mulligan. The , remaining
player, however, can't be counted
out of the running, for, as Coach
Rudman says, "Each man will have
equal opportunity to show his ability.
The starting five won't be determined
until game time."

Get It In!
Do you have an original idea for a
newspaper article or feature?
Haven't you ever had an urge to
write? Well, do something about it.
Bring it in to the Collegian Office.
Hideway
For the information of prospective
visitors the Collegian office is tucked
away in a corner on the third floor of
"Old Main." It can be reached by
dogsled, helicopter, or just plain
walking.
'Twas in a restaurant they met;
Romeo and Juliet.
He had no cash to pay the debt,
So Rom-e-od what Juli-et.
I met a girl, named Passicin,
I asked her for a date.
I took her out to dinner,
My gosh how Passion-ate.
HAZLETON COLLEGIAN
The First social activity of the ear sponsored by the Student
Council was the Halloween dance held at, St. John's hall. A portion of
our students were conspicious by their absence, but those present had
a fine evening of entertainment. Gallons of cider flowed, cans of
pretzels emptied, and the dancers wore themselves out.
If the non-dancing students will avail themselves of Syd Rudman's
Thursday afternoon dance club, the membership of the stag "herd"
roaming forlornly around the dance floor edges will drop convincingly.
Every student who has paid his SGA fee supports these dances, so
why not come to your own party? Make your plans now for the
Thanksgiving dance on Tuesday, November 22. How about ft—a record
turnout and one hundred per cent participation in Tuesday evening's
festivities ?
THE FINE ART OF STUDY
After I received that bluebook in
Comp 5, with the large red inscrip
tion, quote, "69—You can do better
than that!", I decided that I could.
My mind was made up; now to select
the most scientific and thorough way
to carry out this decision.
I. visited the office of the Student
Counseling Service. Mr. Krecker lis
tened sympathetically to my problem
and promptly proceded to compose a
schedule which could show me how to
take fullest advantage of every wak
ing hour. I still don't quite under
stand his scheme for studying while
asleep. With this timetable tucked se
curely in my left shoe, I set off to the
library.
I gathered an armful of the best
reference books including Bartlett's
Familiar Pears, the June, 1946, issue
of Readers' Digest, an Esso road map
of North and South Dakota, and Miss
Bonn's high school year book. I
checked these volumes out (you see
this story is a fantasy), and left.
Reading material, chart, now I
must get equipment! Of course II
would need a monochromatic, fluores
cent-sodium study lamp with push- I
button adjustment and an Esquire
Girl shade; a DuPont nevermar,
gloss-shine, , ever-wear, dura-bilt, cu
shion-flo
paperweight; one quart of
panchromatic, effervescent, super-
Why don't you ask Emerson Knyrim to tell you the differ-.
ence between a turtle and a mountain goat?
Who reads these questions anyway?
A large portion of the Highacres student body attended the
Penn State Vs. Temple game last Saturday.
Burt Minkin seems to be making a hobby out of getting into
traffic accidents.
CHEESECAKE
wetting, hydrascript ink in Ali Kahn
black; a feather-cut blond-mahogany
writing desk with built-in electric
waste-disposal unit; and finally an
egg-point pen for graceful ovals in
handwriting. How can I miss ?
Let's see now; it's ten minutes af
ter five; I should have been increas
ing my vocabulary by reading ten
pages of the dictionary but I missed
my bus home and I will have to eat
my supper during my home chemistry
experiments. I can discuss Plato with
my mother at the breakfast table
she's not too good with Aristotle
though. I can't miss the movie at the
Capitol tonight,hmmm .... Eight to
ten is reserved for history; oh well,
the picture is based on some sort of
a historical novel—that will amount
to about the same thing. Ten-thirty to
eleven is supposed to be for recrea
tion. Good grief! do you mean I've
been sitting here at Cipriano's for
three hours ? It is nearly two A.M.
I'd better go to bed so that I'll be
fresh• and clear-eyed for that Comp
quiz tomorrow morning. All these
weeks of my new study program will
begin paying dividends at last.
Gee she graded those papers fast.
I guess there wasn't much to correct.
Ah, here's mine!

that!"
