MARCH 7, 1950 Sergeant Joseph P. Flartey, the fu ture airmen's instructor, entered the Air Corps before Pearl Harbor and was a member of the 12th Air Force during the war. He saw action in the Mediterranean area during, the North African, Sicilian, and Italian cam paigns. In 1945 Sergeant Flartey be came Mister Flartey but he retained his new title for only a year and a half. He reenlisted in 1947. He now lives in an- apartment at 221 East Green Street in Hazleton. The Activities nip priority for future projects is given to instruction and •practice on the rifle range. When "Old Man Win ter" breaks up, the sergeants intend to have every cadet participate in this marksmanship program. Different types of weapons will be included in the program. The M-1 rifle will be the most important. The uniforms for the two units ar rived at the end of the first semester, barely in time for the Military Ball. Jack Sipple reigned as King; his Queen was an obscure beauty from Bethlehem. The Mrs. Gordon and Flartey presided as judges. The cadets take a lot of ribbing when they wear their uniforms to class from non-Rotoceers, male and female. While on the topic of• uni forms it would be appropriate to mention that the uniform must be worn with full regard to regulations at all times. These promotions were announced, effective February 16, 1950.

FASHION NEWS The fashion department receives many requests for advice on this new French hair cut business so we intro duce the "Bold Look" or what the campus king and queen will wear. As you can see for yourself "She's love ly, She's engaged, She uses Old Dutch Cleanser." We believe these two hap py little ? will start a new trend; they wear the same hair-do to show they are keeping steady comrpany so how about it, you lovers, do you want to be "Old Fashioned?" to. Cpl. to Cpl to Cpl. HAZLETON COLLEGIAN e One) L. A. JOHN MOONEY L. A. might mean Los Angeles, Or Limited Assignment; To me it denotes Liberal Arts, A cultural confinement. I've taken Psych, Zoology, Botany, Music, too; Philosophy and Poly Sci, And still I am not through There's always Econ, History, German, French, and Spanish; And Speech and Sociology, From me they'll never vanish. Some Math and yet some Chemistry Are more component parts, Of this whole scheme—this "broadening thing" —The School of Liberal Arts. What To Do If It Rains CHAD McCRACKEN To ponder the question, "What'll we do if it rains?" Is hardly a task For a person with brains. But to seek a solution I'll gladly try; For "having no brains," I quite qualify. So here are suggestions You may not have heard, Though they seem just as natural As the flight of a bird. First, we have the invention That is named "Parasol," Which gives some protection From the drops as they fall. Then, there are the shelters That man has made That serve equally well For dryness or shade. (Of course if it's lightning, That one really fears; He could wear lightning rods Over his ears.) Again—On a picnic If you're near a river, You can jump in the water At the first Heavenly Quiver; Then with Thumb-nose salute, You pull in your head And not mind the raindrops For soon you'll be dead. The things are so numerous That a person can do, It seems to be silly To state them to you: But one final suggestion— Dig a hole in the sod, Jump in it head first, Seeking refuge with God. And over the spot, At your "Loved One's" prescription Will be placed a white stone With this simple inscription: "Of a bewildered 'Traveler,' He never did learn What to , do if it rains." Here is all that remains "For knowledge, too, is itself a power."—Bacon (Especially around finals time).
