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.

It should be brought out that every
effort is made to cooperate with the
other departments of the college in
the attainment of the object of mili
tary instruction. Also the methods of
instruction are applicable to civil as
well as military careers, and will
serve to increase business efficiency
and economic value through habits of
obedience, discipline, self control,
teamwork, and responsibility. Charac
ter and leadership development is em
phasized throughout the course. Dis
ciplinary training is a prerequisite to
the development of both character
and leadership.

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?"

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).
THE DRAMATIC CLUB
Miss Campbell has announced that
the selection of the spring semester
drama has 'been made. The Jesters
will produce and stage Oscar Wilde's
"The Importance of Being Earnest."
This play is a comedy-farce in three
acts, and it includes many gems of
Mr. Wilde's wit and humor.
The tryouts for parts are taking
place in the dining room between 7
and 8:30 p.m. on Monday and Tues
day, March 6 and 7. These tryouts
are not limited to members of the
Dramatic Club—anyone with a smat
tering of talent and a lot of interest
is invited to participate.
It is planned that the play shall be
given arena-style at Genetti's Thea
ter-Restaurant on two evenings,
April 19 and 20. •
THE DANCE CLUB
The Penn State Dance Club will
hold its first meeting of this semester
on Thursday, March 9, in the Botany
Ballroom. The rendezvous will be in
the form of a reorganizational meet
ing, and new members will •be espe
cially welcome. Mr. Rudman, club ad
visor, has stated that many different
types of dances will be covered this
semester. That's Thursday, March 9,
in B-101 at 4:30.
THE INTERNATIONAL
RELATIONS CLUB
Last week the members of the In
ternational Relations Club held their
weekly conclave. They extended an
invitation for any interested persons
to attend the discussion-meetings,
and planned for a program of
movies on topics of international im
port throughout the semester. Mr.
Ralph Krecker, faculty advisor, will
arrange for the procurement of these
timely films.
