Student evaluation of faculty will take place this semester during the week of April 18 to 22. This date is different from that listed on the calendar. The questionnaire used last semester, will be employed again, but the committee on Student Evaluation of Faculty is soliciting both student and faculty input for a revised or new instrument for the fall. Ideas should be submitted to the Student Evaluation of Faculty Committee , room 10 Ben Franklin no later than March 15. • The college counseling Center I will present an outreach program on '' conflict management " at 12 o'clock noon on Wednesday, February 23, in the Kehr Union coffeehouse. Off campus students who have encountered roommate problems or other conflicts situations may find this program enlightening. ¦ Barrett Surdoval run f or CGA pr esident ^ by BARB HAGAN Housing and recreation are the two main problems at BSC, Ed Barrett , CGA presidential candidate, sees it. Barrett feels that the offcampus housing needs great improvement. He suggests that landlords who own and rent rundown property to students should be exposed and their property condemned, with the aid of the lawyer and building inspectors. Providing students with housing after a place is condemned is a problem that Barrett suggests be handled by CGA. Through CGA, several mobile homes could be purchased and placed on the upper campus for emergency use, so that the students would not be lef t out in the cold. On campus housing is also one of Barrett's items for improvement. "I don 't care for tripling, commented Barrett ," if we could improve the offcampus housing for upperclassmen it would encourage them to move offcampus. This would provide for unhousing more derclassmen , and perhaps would eliminate tripling. " Expansion of recreation hour for the students is another goal Barrett wants to achieve if elected. Barrett realizes the cost of the gyms but he states, "they are worth nothing when the doors are locked." Barrett plans to secure more hours during the week as well as weekends for students to use the two gyms. Concerning the Bloomsburg Student Concert Committee Barrett believes that the BSCC should run a survey of the student body and find out what type of music the students want to hear . The survey should then be used in determining the groups to appear at BSC. Also, the traditional appointment of the Vice-President as the head of the committee will only come about if he is qualified to do the job. Barrett suggests that the surveys be placed in the packets students receive at registration. Barrett noted , "The name of the committee used to be Big Name Entertainment and that's what the goal of the committee should be , to provide the students with Big Names." Rather than quantity , Barrett stresses quality. Town-College relations was another issue Barrett deemed as very important. He feels that students heed to become more aware of the community and try to be part of the town. Barrett commented that only good can come from better town relations. Barrett also suggests that students attend the town meetings and voice their opinions on such issues as the overpass, housing, and things that are bothering them concerning the town. Barrett plans on improving the medical services here on weekends. He hopes to secure a nurse on weekends so that students don 't have to travel to the hospital for minor injuries on weekends. Barrett thought that if the nurse was available a few- hours on Sat. and Sun. it would help the students greatly. ED BARRETT (Photo by Palmer) Barrett sees the overpass as a vital need for the students. Through working on the overpass committee Barrett is aware of the problems and costs and he feels that the overpass is a project to. be enforced. Barrett' s pJatform offers alternatives to many of the problems on the BSC campus. When asked why he wished to be CGA president Barrett stated , "I think I can do a better job than my opposing candidates. Through my experience as a student manager in the Commons I get to deal personally with students. I feel that I can represent the students.'' , by JACK FURNISS Joe Surdoval, candidate for CGA President, "tells it like it is in his platform designed to appeal to voters looking for a qualified man with a sincere, optimistic outlook toward the improvement of BSC. His list of credentials is impressive, including extensive work on both General and Executive Councils and Representative Assembly. In addition, Surdoval has worked on the Lawyer Committee of CGA and the Coordinating Committee of Academic Affairs of the Representative Assembly. He has also been involved in the Commonwealth Association of Students and its attempt to become an effective organization . Among the items in his platform is the right for students to be assured of low-cost quality education. This concerns the recurring issues of retrenchment, tuition hikes, and inadequate, energyconsuming facilities. Joe's solution is the 100 percent support of CAS as our student lobby in an attempt of influence legislators in our favor . Surdoval plans to give the student housing problem at BSC top priority for the 1977-78 CGA. His proposals include the purchase of 70-foot trailers to be located on the upper campus to be rented on a semester basis. Another solution involves the investigation and subsequent encouragement of a possible federally-funded housing project for the upper campus. Joe sees a need for the revision of some academic policies involv ing out of date , requirements. Some of these include : a revised final exam policy, the change or abolishment of Composition 102 as a required course, and revision of the swimming requirement. According to Joe, there are organizational faults in the CGA which need to be cured to guarantee a more responsive student government. He plans to implement the idea of the CGA phone as a hotline for student problems. Expanded office hours including some evenings will also be realized along with the distribution of Executive Council minutes and agenda to each general council representative five days prior to the meeting. Joe Surdoval highly commends this years' president , Tom Mulhern , for his accomplishments in the demanding office. JOE SURDOVAL (Photo by Palmer) Athletics , radio highlight CGA by STUART DUNBAR Allocations of large amounts of money for athletics were approved at the CGA meeting on Monday night and some lengthy discussion evolved around WBSC's reallocation of their budget, and who should attend the NSA Conference in Washington D.C. Six points of discussion involved sending athletes to championships, and national tournaments. The amount of money needed to send BSC athletes to six different' competitions put a 7,570 dollar dent in CGA's spending money for the rest of the semester. The competitions that the athletes will be attending are as follows : Women 's Swimming and Diving, Men 's Swimming and Diving (NCAA DIV II Championship ) , Men 's and Diving Swimming (EASTERN SEABOARD ) , Women ' s Basketball , Men 's Track ICAAAA , and Wrestling Nationals. The money is needed to take care of traveling exacmeals , penses , . commodations and entry fees for the tournaments. Once again most of the discussion revolved around how many members of these teams would go and how much rooms in motels would cost. To be able to go to these events, athletes must first qualify so the money needed is actually in preparation for the tournaments. Respectively the figures needed were $850, $905, $872, $1067, $683, and the largest sum being $3,193 for the Wrestling Nationals. All the allocations were passed by members of council for BSC's athletes to attend their various competitions. WBSC, needing new equipment for better and clearer broadcasting, asked for approval for a reallocation of their budget . Taking away $600 from the money used to buy albums the radio station has decided to direct the spending of this towards new equipment needed for the improved broadcasting. The new equipment which is to be bought includes heavy duty wire, lightbulbs , transmitters, coils, and tubes. No further funds were given to the radio station just the approval to make this change in their budget . During Spring Break the National Student Conference will be held in Washington , D.C. The question raised at last Monday 's meeting was who should attend the meeting. The question being whether Tom Mulhern (President \f CGA) who is not running for President next semester should attend the conference or should the newly elected President attend. ' A*fter a lengthy discussion of who should go and why, it was passed that Mulhern would attend the Conference with the newly elected President and would bring back information on what student government' s are doing nationwide and to get new ideas for / improvement of the school and community . The cost allocated for this venture came to a total of $604. Frank Lorah , Student Life Accountant , introduced a hew accounting procedure which would save the secretaries paperwork and time so that they could do other jobs instead. The new procedure will cost $625, and the .money will come from Alumni Highschool College Community Fund. A newly formed club is on the BSC campus. The club is the Intercollegiate Bowling Club with twenty-eight members and their coach is Tim Wagner, Games Room Sueprvisor . The team is made up of men and women and they are not . undo *' ' athletic supervision . The hew club asked for $300 whj rh is necessary for traveling expenses , meals and bowling expenses etc. and without much discussion they were allocated the money . The Horror of the Campus ^^ r Qk iZC£^T\LA J— ¦¦— DUANE LONG B The first clue A student government election is an event few people on campus can afford to ignore - especially the newspaper. It was' our original intention to endorse one of the candidates , but our editorial board decision was similar to the 600 and some odd students who took the time to vote in the^primary. Because of this we found we could make no definitive decision in favor of either candidate. Not that we 're wishy-washy , but nine people vote on the editorial board. One of the Candidates had a one vote edge but we felt this wasn't enough 10 support a full scale endorsement. However , we cannot and wilPnot ignore the election of a candidate to an office that we see as important as that of CGA president , especially next year. Both candidates have gone out of their way in promoting what they feel to be worthwhile, student oriented platforms. In addition to the on-campus issues they themselves have presented (see page 1), we feel that that situation in the State College System ne^t year will demand a viable student voice in Harrisburg. Retrenchment and appropriations cut backs are sure to resurface as strong threats to students in public higher education. We feel that in addition to the pertinent campus wide issues students should remember that the CGA President must also be able to speak for us in Harrisburg. We need a person with integrity , who is articulate and able to remember that he is representing over 5,000,students, not just himself. It 's easy enough to write a platform about housing or academic policies , however , the actual situations that a CGA President encounters are incredibly more comp/icated. Read the platiorms , consider what we 've pointed out here and vote for the man you think best fills the job.

They were sitting in the back with a man who very strongly resembled Dr. Hunter S. Thomson - the renounced gonzo journalist and author. But as it turned out , he was a suit salesman from Dublin , Ireland . Reverend Jay Rochelle was the first one in Hess 's to greet me. "HOW YA DOIN PILGRIM?" He said in his John Wayne voice. ''Not too bad, your honor - and yourself?" "Verily I am very well, aside from a twinge of verbal nausea ," Jay replied. "Well as long as you don't start vomiting metaphors all over the place." Jay assured me that he wouldn't, and we joined the O'Brien brothers in the back of Hess 's. Seating ourselves around a table laden with pitchers of Genesee Cream Ale, we started bullshitting with the O'Briens. To call them "the O'Briens " is really an insult in that Bob and David are singularly unique entities. In differen t respects they 're each authorities on politics, history, and experience in college life. I often consult them when something happens which is beyond the realm of my] understanding. Mainly because their advice is bullshit , but it's really great bullshit , and thought-proviking too. Like so many times before,-1 consulted : "Say, David, what do the words I a!, Cthulhu, P'nuig Ryleh, fthagn , and YogSothoth mean to you?" "I think it means the beer has put your mind afloat, stinkin '", Bob answered. "Isn't there some similarity to Russian? " I asked. "Sure", David replied, "but the words aren 't Russian , they 're Rylehean. " "Huh?" "Look up H. P. Lovecraft The Call of Cthulhu ", David suggested. The next day I took the Oarlofmobile over to Andruss Library and looked up Lovecraft. What I found did indeed put . my mind afloat. It put my mind afloat not as Bob O'Brien jokingly suggested the night before. But in the respect that a ship is afloat on a sea of saltwater, my mind became afloat on an ocean of fear . At long last I had a lead — an insight to the Horror of the Campus. to be continued Off on a tangent JOE SYLVESTER B Though it seems like we 've just started the semester it's almost time for Spring Break which means many students, not only from Bloomsburg but from across the country, will be going to Florida. However many prefer not to go to Florida or any other place where they know the crowds will be. They like to do things that are different and are not the least bit bothered by their apparent non-conformity . In fact , they enjoy it. If you are one of those who likes to be away from the crowd but for some amazing reasons or another you lack the imagination to dream up some unique way to spend your vacation in incomparable splendor , I have a suggestion or THE CAMPUS VOICE \ :• . \ We calmed down Bill Toxell as best we could , which wasn 't a particularl y pleasant task. Finally, after a few cups of coffee were dumped into him , Troxell was his smiling self again. I'm actually a coward when it comes to dealing witt^ forces that I don 't understand. Especially when they 're as powerful as this one seemed to be. I knew Bill Troxell , and I've heard a lot of things he 's said — but wow ! That flood of strange words that came out of his mouth was really weird. Rather than screwing around with a spirit which was speaking a whole 'nother language, I decided to pack up my occult garbage and call it a day. If I was going to communicate with the damn thing, I would have to find out what dialect it was expressing through Troxell. The words : I a! Cthulhu , P' nuig Ryleh fathagn and YogSothoth were Russian by- my estimation. The broad and rolling manner of pronunciation made them seem Slavic at any rate. Well, anyway I fugured my best bet was to get in touch with David O'Brien - who speaks Russian fluently. Dale Myers Photography Editors..

If you 're type of person that is into the violent scene, the perfect place to go over Spring Break is Rhodesia. They 've got themselves a pretty good footstomping, barn-burner of a war over there. There 's hardly a dull moment, as they say. However, if you can 't make it to Africa you may have to settle for the standard Central Park at night. My second suggestion is for those of you that like the adventure of the chase , especially when you are the objects of the chase. For you since you may have suicidal tendencies , I suggest going to Buffalo , N.Y. to walk the streets and tell the citizens about the- wonderful time you had in Hawaii last year. If you don 't like any of the above vacation plans don 't despair and chew on your socks because I'm far from finished, I have a suggestion for you if you just like to tour famous places. Yes, you can visit the scene of the notorious St. Valentine 's Day Massacre. (Spring Break isn 't very far away from the holiday so this may be an appropriate place to go. You may not get another chance. The way the breaks have been getting earlier every year, you may be spending next Spring Break with Guy Lombardo. ) When visiting the scene of the massacre you can see the spot where Scarface Nelson , Lightfingers Louie Ladudu and Pruneface Patterson were and the Lone Ranger and Tonto should have been wiped but. If you re not into that kind of f thing but you are an enterprising type you may want to learn how to make millions in just a few days by watching the Georgia Highway Patrol in action. If that doesn't satisfy you, you can always travel to Jessup, Pa. and put in an early order for a 1977 Santo Ubaldo shirt with a picture of "The Fonz " on it. Finally here are some suggestions that cater to a variety of interests. If you have access to a small mirror you can practice eyeball patterns in front of it; or if you like arts and crafts you can make a pillow out of your own leftover belly-button lint. You can also hike across Lake Erie to show that it can be done, roll a bowling ball down Spruce Street try-not- to hook it ,' watch Fishing Creek thaw out or dig for clams in the Susquehanna. If you do not want to do any of the above you might want to j ust stay home and watch the Gong Show ; or go to your friends house and watch the Gong Show ; or go to the nearest Sears and watch the Gong Show in the appliance department. Who knows, you may see some tall guy with a name like a fish playing the harmonica with his nose. That guy is Pat Salmon , a refugee from Duane Long 's column.

For those of you who don 't know , CGA is our Community Government Association. This group of socalled '' concern ed representatives " is responsible for allocating all funds for campus organizations and athletics , many college policies, investigations , and , in many ways, the image of Bloomsburg State. Because of the special significance of this organization , these elections deserve our extreme concern and participation . We desperately need strong, Discritique capable officers who can transform CGA into the powerful all-student organizations which it has the potential of becoming. Unfortunately we lack the candidates to satisfactorily fulfill these crucial positions. Our selection list for presiden t, a position requiring diplomacy, public speaking ability, resourcefulness , tact and outstanding leadership capability includes Ed Barrett , Joe Surdoval and Duane Long. Ed , the going favorite of the Greek faction on campus, as those who attended Candidate's Night realize , is plagued by a severe inability to communicate. The value of his ideas and opinions is made questionable by his lack of response and assertiveness both as a representative in CGA meetings and in sta ting a presidential platform. Just as Calvin Coolidge could not effectively govern a nation , . a candidate lacking in communicative ability cannot effectively govern a student organization. On the opposite end of the spectrum is Joe Surdoval. Of course this name resounds in the minds of all because of this candidate 's persistant efforts to have himself included in the minutes of every committee meeting on campus, even if it means resorting to irrelevancy monopolization of and arguments . Joe has succeeded only in alienating students and administration by his lack of tact , his intolerence for the opinions - of others, and his political game-playing. Duane, our third presidential hopeful , is viewed by many as the most liberal and unusual candidate. Despite this image, at Candidate's Night , Duane made no outlandish proposals and did not involve himself in the petty games of his opponents. Although he does lack the experience valuable to the position , Duane possesses a high degree of wit , intelligence and potential to enable him to deal with administrators and students alike. Among those interested in the second highest position are Jill Tull-So ngs f r om the wood by STUART DUNBAR JETHRO TULL-SONGS FROM THE WOOD-CHRYSALIS RECORDS Not being a avid Jethro Tull fan , I approached this album cautiousl y and tried to "anal yze" this album as best I could. For this , their twelfth album , Ian Anderson composed the lyrics in his country home outside of London. Appearing on this album for the sake of comparing the present day group with past years group are the following members : Ian Anderson , Tony Iommi , Martin Barre , John Evan , Barriemor Barlow , John Glascock , and David Palmer. Side One begins with "Songs From The Wood" , and right away I noticed a change in Anderson 's approach. Beginning the song with a solo, a very well done solo by the way, I seemed to notice . an improvement in his voice which shows me that he truly is a "singer in an ageless time ". The old Jethro Tull returns with the handclapping and familiar flute playing. Ian sings about the beautiful outdoors — how the gardens grow , poppies red and roses filled with summer rain. "Jack In The Green , " another outdoor song, leans more to environmental problems such as where will the be when the greenery and come , pavements mux ^ Do& powerhnes are installed all over the face of the Earth. Jack In The Green is the preserver of the life and it is his job to do something about what is happening. This song is very similar to the music of Cat Stevens. "Cup of Wonder " caught my ear because of the fine tamburine playing in the background and the loud but dainty paino playing by John Evans. Although the music flows softl y throughout the song, the lyrics have no one particular meaning to me, I could guess at maybe five or so, but I'll let you find your own meaning. The fourth cut , "Hunting Lady ", is a bit over electrified for Jethro Tull and for a love song. It's about a "poor so and so " meeting a high-born Hunting Girl. After making love, the poor man must return to the. farm for he cannot stay with such a beautiful woman. Some things to watch for in this song are the nicel y laid-out and lengthy instrumentals. "Ring Out Solstice Bell", is a song of joy-trying to express the meaning that it is time to be happy and let your feelings go. A relatively simple song lyrics-wise, I can 't say that I do or don 't like the lyrics, but I did enjoy the bells ringing in the backround. "Velvet Green ", the first cut on Side Two, begins with a new approach , that begin soft music with a church-like organ and Ian 's ever famous flute. I believe it to be a thinking fan tasy of many ideas which consist of both love of women and the great outdoors and the feeling of just totally enjoying the outdoors in all its beauty. "The Whistler ", another love song, is a fast and boisterous sad song once again resembling Cat Stevens type lyrics. My favorite song, "Pibroch (Cap In Hand)" , is yet another love song about a lonely man walking towards a lonely cabin in the woods hoping to find love in the cabin. But as it turns out he finds a table set for two. strange slippers by the fire , and strange boots in the hallway, so he turns around only lo be alone once again. Various instrumentals are contained within the song, some soft and beautiful , others loud , yet they are appropriate and fit in well with the lyrics. "Fire At Midnight" adds a nice touch to the album with the well' done harmonizing of both the organ and voice singing the lyrics ; yet another love song with easy flowing instrumentals and loud crashing drums and guitars. I particularly liked the ending which was not drawn out : it' s ending is similar to "I' m Gonna Have You AH" on Manfred Mann 's "Glorified Magnified ". So there you have it, the twelfth Jethro Tull album with mixed meanings, lyrics, and mixed feelings on my half. To read this review may give an idea of what to expect, but to really understand how I came to the conclusions I did you'll have to buy the album and listen to it many times. To me it's better than the least few albums they 've done but it doesn 't quite compete with some of their earlier works. By Sanderhn and Rich 01ver, \Jill has generously submitted her name as candidate although if ^ she continues her current habits of CGA voting, she will probably abstain from placing her own vote but only after elaborately phrased questions and comments of little relevance. She lacks the mos t general knowledge of campus life yet seeks one of the college 's highest offices. As for Rich , he appears to be representative of the typical mediocre Bloom student. He does possess more knowledge and experience than his opponent and he does vote in CGA much more frequently. ' From this selection, we must choose students to fill two of the most influential and representative positions on campus. If you feel inclined to vote for "D) none of the above" or perhaps write-in Pat Paulsen , you are not alone.

They were sitting in the back with a man who very strongly resembled Dr. Hunter S. Thomson - the renounced gonzo journalist and author . But as it turned out, he was a suit salesman from Dublin, Ireland. Reverend Jay Rochelle was the first one in Hess's to greet DOIN me. "HOW YA PILGRIM?" He said in his John Wayne voice. "Not too bad , your honor - and yourself? " "Verily I am very well, aside from a twinge of verbal nausea ," Jay replied. "Well as long as you don 't start vomiting metaphors all over the place." Jay assured me that he wouldn't, and we joined the O'Brien brothers in the back of Hess 's. Seating ourselves around a table laden with pitchers of Genesee Cream Ale, we started bullshitting with the O'Briens. To call them "the O'Briens" is really an insult in that Bob and David are singularly unique entities. In different respects they 're each authorities on politics, history, and experience in college life. I often consult them when something happens ^ two for you. If you 're type of person that is into the violent scene, the perfect place to go over Spring Break is Rhodesia. They've got themselves a pretty good footstomping, barn-burner of a war over there. There 's hardly a dull moment, as they say. However, if you can't make it to Africa you may have to settle for the standard Central Park at night . My second suggestion is for those of you that like the adventure of the chase, especially when you are the objects of the chase. For you since you may have suicidal tendencies , I suggest going to Buffalo, N.Y. to walk the streets and tell the citizens about the' wonderful time you had in Hawaii last year. If you don 't like any of the above vacation plans don 't despair and chew on your socks because I'm far from finished. I have a suggestion for you if you just like to tour famous places. Yes, you can visit the scene of the notorious St. Valentine 's Day Massacre. (Spring Break isn't very far away from the holiday so this may be an appropriate place to go. You may not get another chance. The way the breaks have been getting earlier every year , you may be spending next Spring Break with Guy Lombardo. ) When visiting the scene of the massacre you can see the spot where Scar face Nelson , Lightfingers Louie Ladudu and Pruneface Patterson were and the Lone Ranger and Tonto should have boon wiped but. If you 're not into that kind of t thing but you are an enterprising type you may want to learn how to make millions in just a few days by watching the Georgia Highway Patrol in action. If that doesn't satisfy you, you can always travel to Jessup, Pa. and put in an early order for a 1977 Santo Ubaldo shirt with a picture of "The Fonz " on it . Finally here are some suggestions that cater to a variety of interests. If you have access to a small mirror you can practice eyeball patterns in front of it; or if you like arts and crafts you can make a pillow out of your own leftover belly-button lint. You can also hike across Lake Erie to show that it can be done, roll a bowling ball down Spruce Street try-not to hook it,' watch Fishing Creek thaw out or dig for clams in the Susquehanna. If you do not want to do any of the above you might want to just stay home and watch the Gong Show; or go to your friends house and watch the Gong Show ; or go to the nearest Sears and watch the Gong Show in the appliance department. Who knows, you may see some tall guy with a name like a fish playing the harmonica with his nose. That guy is Pat Salmon, a refugee from Duane Long 's column. If you like any of the above suggestions this column has been worthwhile....or never mind....how am I going to end this? , well anyway...

For those of you who don 't know , CGA is our Community Government Association ; This group of socalled '' c o n c e r n e d representatives " is responsible for allocating all funds for campus organizations and athletics , many college policies, investigations , and , in many ways, the image of Bloomsburg State. Because of the special significance of this organization , these elections deserve' our extreme concern and participation . We desperately need strong, Discritiaue capable officers who can transform CGA into the p o w e r f u l a l l :s t u d e n t organizations which it has the potential of becoming. Unfortunately we lack the candidates to satisfactorily fulfill these crucial positions. Our selection list for president , a position requiring diplomacy , public speaking ability, resourcefulness, tact and outstanding leadership capability includes Ed Barrett , Joe Surdoval and Duane Long. Ed , the going favorite of the Greek faction on campus, as those who attended Candidate's Night realize, is plagued by a severe inability to communicate. The value of his ideas and opinions is made questionable by his lack of response and assertiveness both as a representative in CGA meetings and in stating a presidential platform . Just as Calvin Coolidge could not effectively govern a nation , . a candidate lacking in communicative ability cannot effectively govern a student organization. On the opposite end of the spectrum is Joe Surdoval. Of course this name resounds in the minds of all because of this candidate's persistant efforts to have himself included in the minutes of ever y committee ^ meeting on campus , even if it means resorting to irrelevancy of monopolization and arguments. Joe has succeeded only in alienating students and administration by his lack of tact , his intolerence for the opinions - of others, and his political game-playing. Duane , our third presidential hopeful, is viewed by many as the most liberal and unusual candidate. Despite this image, at Candidate's Night, Duane made no outlandish proposals and did not involve himself in the petty games of his opponents. Although he does lack the experience valuable to the position , Duane possesses a high degree of wit , intelligence and potential to enable him to deal with administrators and students alike. Among those interested in the second highest position are Jill approach , that begin soft music with a church-like organ and Ian 's ever famous flute. I believe it to be a thinking fantasy of many ideas which consist of both love of women and the great outdoors and the feeling of just totally enjoying the outdoors in all its beauty . "The Whistler ", another love song, is a fast and boisterous sad song once again resembling Cat Stevens type lyrics. My favorite song, "Pibroch (Cap In Hand) ", is yet another love song about a lonely man walking towards a lonely cabin in the woods hoping to find love in the cabin. But as it turns out he finds a table set for two, strange slippers by the fire , and strange boots in the hallway, so he turns around only to be alone once again. Various instrumentals are contained within the song, some soft and beautiful , others loud , yet they are appropriate and fit in well with the lyrics. "Fire At Midnight" adds a nice touch to the album with the well' done harmonizing of both the organ and voice singing the lyrics ; yet another love song with easy flowing instrumentals and loud crashing drums and guitars. I particularly liked the ending which was not drawn out : it's ending is similar to "I' m Gonna Have You AH" on Manfred Mann 's "Glorified Magnified" . So there you have it , the twelfth Jethro Tull album with mixed meanings, lyrics, and mixed feelings on my half. To read this review may give an idea of what to expect, but to really understand how I came to the conclusions I did you'll have to buy the album and listen to it many times . To me it's better than the least few albums they've done but it doesn't quite compete with some of their earlier works. Tull-So ngs from the wood by STUART DUNBAR JETHRO TULL-SONGS FROM THE WOOD-CHRYSALIS RECORDS Not being a avid Jethro Tull fan , I approached this album to cautiousl y and tried "analyze" this album as best I could. For this , their twelfth album . Ian Anderson composed the lyrics in his country home outside of London . Appearing on this album for the sake of com paring the presen t day group with past years group are the following members : Ian Anderson , Tony Iommi , Martin Barre , John Evan , Barriemor Barlow , John Glascock , and David Palmer . Side One begins with "Songs From The Wood" , and right away I noticed a change in Anderson 's approach . Beginning the song with a solo, a very well done solo by the way, I seemed to notice . an improvement in his voice which shows me that he truly is a "singer in an ageless time". The old Jethro Tull returns with the handclapping and familiar flute playing. Ian sings about the beautiful outdoors — how the gardens grow , poppies red and roses filled with summer rain. "Jack In The Green, " another outdoor song, leans environmental more to problems such as where will the the when be greenery and come , pavements HAffi «• 3>Qfr powerlines are installed all over the face of the Earth. Jack In The Green is the preserver of the life and it is his job to do something about what is happening. This song is very similar to the music of Cat Stevens. "Cup of Wonder " caught my ear because of the fine tamburine playing in the background and the loud but dainty paino playing by John Evans. Although the music flows softly throughout the song, the lyrics have no one particular meaning to me , I could guess at maybe five or so, but I'll let you find your own meaning . The fourth cut , "Hunting Lad y ", is a bit over electrified for Jethro Tull and for a love song. It's about a "poor so and so " meeting a high-born Hunting Girl. After making love, the poor man must return to the. farm for he cannot stay with such a beautiful woman . Some things to watch for in this song are the nicely laid-out and lengthy instrumentals. "Ring Out Solstice Bell", is a song of joy-trying to express the meaning that it is time to be happy and let your feelings go. A relatively simple song lyrics-wise , I can 't say that I do or don 't like the lyrics, but I did enjoy the bells ringing in the backround. "Velvet Green ", the first cut on Side Two, begins with a new A correspondent from the Washington Post will be speaking on the BSC campus today on the subject of Journalism. Mr. Warren Brown will be in Haas Aud. at 9:00 a.m. and in the Multi-purpose room of the KUB at 11:00 a.m. £j STEVE WETZEL f \ . .

She lacks the most general knowledge of campus life yet seeks one of the college's highest offices . As for Rich , he appears to be representative of the typical mediocre Bloom student. He does possess more knowledge and experience than his opponent and he does vote in CGA much more frequently. * From this selection , we must choose students to fill two of the most influential and representative positions on campus. If you feel inclined to vote for "D) none of the above" or perhaps write-in Pat Paulsen, you are not alone. Worried about the future, Cathy Poffenberger Nancy Oliver . • Photo Forum CAS seeks adeq uate budge t fro m state HARRISBURG — The Commonwealth Association of Students ( CAS ) is urging the presidents and faculty leaders of the fourteen Pennsylvania public colleges to meet with its statewide student leadership in Harrisburg to present a unified front for adequate appropriations for the 1977-1978 academic^ year. CAS is the statewide student advocacy for the state colleges and university in Pennsylvania. Such a meeting, which will occur shortly after Governor Shapp presents his budget, will be the first time that the leaders of the three major campus factions have ever met together at the statewide level. CAS is proposing this conference in its efforts to secure adequate money from the legislature for the operation of the public college system, and to avert the possibility of a major increase in student fees. "We must forget our differences and work together," said CAS President Nathan L. Gadsden, "If our colleges are again underfunded, and the students are again told to shoulder the financial burden , public higher education in Pennsylvania could be wiped out completely. " Gadsden points out that Pennsylvania state college studen ts are currently paying one of the highes t rates of f ees f or public colleges in the country, and says that a major increase in tuition would result in a sharp enrollment drop at the instituitons. "A vicious cy cle will develop," he said; "Too much money from the students and too little money from the state will mean disaster ." CA.S expects that Governor Shapp 's budget will recommend only a five per cent increase in appropriations to the colleges , and that such a figure would result in a fees increase from $50 to $150 more a semester. "The college presidents , the student government presidents , and the local faculty union presidents have never worked as a unified body, " said CAS Executive Director Eugene T. Carroll , "it is imperative that we pull together now. We must consult with each other , pool our efforts and resources, and present the same data and information ." In the past , Carroll noted, budget requests and institutional informatio n con- examination week — last sentence added. The changing of the time of a final was also discussed. A final may be changed with 10O (per cent) class approval and agreem ent of the professor with permission granted by the dean of the school . An item to take note of is that the above agreement does not involve section nine , which allows students no more than two finals per day. If a final is changed and placed so that a student is scheduled for three finals, the student may not change another final. He (she) must take the three finals on the day he (she) agreed. One of the other sections discussed converned content of tests. The rule stated that tests must involve concepts and ideas, not mere memorization of facts. This statement was struck from the policy. Section II stated that "faculty are not expected to be available for student conferences during finals week." The word "expected " was changed to "required ." The CCAA passed the final examination policy after the revisions. The policy will be sent to the Representative Assembly for approval . The next meeting of CCAA will be at 3:30 p.m., March 8, in Navy Hall Auditorium . Funny Lady Friday Night at 10:30 p.m. in tho Kohr Union.

"We cannot do that in such a critical year as this ," he said , "If the three major campus groups work together at the statewide and locaj levels, we will be able to preserve a highquality public postsecondary education ." Finals decision declared final by JIM PEFFLEY The revised final examination policy was discussed and reviewed further at a meeting of the Coordinating Committee on Academic Affairs last Tuesday. The major item discussed w7as section four , which stated that "facul ty should refrain from testing the final week of classes in lieu of the prescribed testing period . Unit tests shall not be given the last full week of class, unless the examination can be returned to students prior to final exams. Exceptions may be . made with prior departmental approval- ( sufficient notice must be given to students.) Additions and amendments were proposed , some causing major debates. One amendment , suggesting the revision of the second sentence, caused a three-minute caucus. Dr. Craig L. Himes , chairperson of biology, feared a division between faculty and student members. After debates , revisions, and additions the section was restated in the. following manner : "Faculty should refrain from testing the final week of classes in lieu of prescribed testing periods . Unit tests shall not be given the last—full , omitted — week of class — end of sentence struck. Exception may be made with pri or departmenta l approval.

George Boschini (Sr.) Yes, I think CGA is an important organization that directly effects all of us and we should choose the most qualified people to represent us.

Mary Pulley-(Soph.) — Yes, because I think students should take an active part in deciding who they want to represent their interests. CGA makes many decisions concerning our money and policies at school that concern us. If students don't takevan interest in it now, they have no right to complain about the decisions made , later ! Michael Miner (Soph.) I have been too busy with exams. The professors want to cram in all the quizzes before vacation . If I find time from my studies, I will vote. It is important to find good representatives for BSC Students . You have to live with your representatives decisions. Make your ballot count during elections. v Steve Johnson (Frosh.) No, I've been too busy playing pinball or doing other things and haven 't gotten around to it. It really doesn 't seem to make that much difference who gets elected . Camille Strausser (Frosh.)

Students from 'round the globe by MARY SANFORD For most of us, coming to BSC is a big adjustment from the comforts of home life. There are hew faces, classes, responsibilities, and challenges. Yet , imagine what it must feel like to come to Bloomsburg from another country and adjust with ease. Eric Yamoah, a native from Ghana , has done just that. Through family friends Eric heard about the excellent business program at BSC and decided to pursue an accounting maj or here. He has enjoy ed it ever since. At first he was concerned about racial discrimination but found this isn't the case at Bloomsburg. In Yamoah' s words, the kids here are really friendly and he really enjoys the full social life. As an exchange student Yamoah is really involved with campus life. He is an active participant of the soccer team and a member of Lamda Chi Alpha fraternity . In addition to writing a column in the Campus Voice (NKOMBODZI) , he is; a member of the Society of Collegiate Journalists. He is employed at Andruss Library. As for the United States, Yamoah is both amazed at and inspired by the many freedoms enjoyed by Americans. For example, in the United States, drawing political cartoons is considered socially acceptable and is a freedom enjoyed by many. In Ghana , however, such drawings of political figures are strictly prohibited. After he receives his degree here Yamoah plans to return home to assume a position as a bank accountant. —- ¦¦—-^^ ^H MSHBMimP ^OTn Nature's Garden Health Foods "Center St. / Comploto lino of hoolth food noods Natural vitamins , cosmetics , herbal teas Hours 10-5 Fri. till 8 v Closed Wed. Phone 387-0357 Acrot ifrom Columbia Thoatro . i Something of value Lutheranism by JAY C. ROCHEUE Protestant Campus Pastor Martin Luther died 431 years ago today. It hardly seems so long. The Church which followed , the evangelical Catholic Church known unfortunately as "Luthera n ", still lives with him. Its basic teaching device remains nis small catechism , a little gem he knocked out in three days as a means for "heads of households to instruct in the Christian faith" . His sermons and commentaries on Scripture are still widely read. The little catechism ("book of questions and answers" ) is a blending of the objective content of the faith with its subjective apprehension in the life of the individual . It takes dogmatic statements and makes them personal , in short. In so doing it created a style of reflection which has characterized the whole "Lutheran " . church ever since. Unlike much in contemporary Protestantism , the Luthera n approach to faith is not subjective it means "everything I choose to believe"; unlike much traditional Roman Catholicism , the Lutheran approach to faith is not objective where it means "everything the church teaches." "Lutheranism " has a self-understanding as a confessing movement within Western Catholicism i.e. it is a part of our style to continually ask after the justification ^ our existence as a structure. We see that the renaissance in contempora ry Roman Catholicism puts serious questions to our existence as a seperate church. Years of Roman Catholic Lutheran dialogue have moved to the point of such agreement as will issue forth in a few years in inter-Communion. For theses things we rejoice. And wonder over the future. Luther was not prophetic enough to know the historical outcome of forces he unleashed. Surely he never envisioned the breakdown of the Protestant movement into a myriad of small sects. Perhaps it is some small tribute that the Lutheran movement held firm and never splintered into private religious groups and understandings as did much of the rest of Protestantism. But perhaps it is even more a testimony to the Gospel and its power to unite people. The core of Luther 's insight was nothing new. It was the core of Catholic faith in all ages, but he saw it to be under a cloud, masked by a system which seemed to point in a different direction. So he unearthed the power of affirmation — that God was not a malevolent dictator needing appeasement so much as a fragile Presence breaking into the human stream in Jesus of Nazareth. Breaking in such a way as to create meaning for my life. LADIES IN RETIREMENT — Bill Ide pours another little drink y as Diane Danzer watches the wine flow.

Eliminating the inter-league encounters, the PC grapplers boast an 85-22-2 record against non-conference foes. Clarion , who has one of the best records in the state, has won the league title four of the last five years, rates as the top choice to claim another PC crown. Slippery Rock , runnersup to Clarioniour of the last five years and team champs in 1975, also figures to be in contention this year, along with Millersville. The real team battl e could be for second place, especially considering the balance that exists in the league this year.
