BSC prepares f o r coal strikes Common Cause seeks aid by JIM PEFFLE Y "Pennsylvania has always been known as in a bad state, as far as bureacracy is concerned. That is where we would hope to help. ".John Kulik, Director for Field Organization for Common Cause of Pa., stated the above to a group of students last week. Kulik was on campus to promote Common Cause and to spark interest in organizing a chapter at BSC. Common Cause is a citizen's movement working to promote the . public interest in Pennsylvania 's government. The movement's goals include eliminating corruption in the government, reducing influence of special interests, updating and revitalizing government institutions and practices and placing control of the government in the hands of the electorate. Kulik, a registered lobbyist, stated that the movement began nationally about eight years ago. With a . basis in the Washington , D.C., movement is financed by membership dues and sends releases to members on upcoming events. Pennsylvania is a major concern of Common Cause Be sure to see Friday's Campus Voice for the Eastern Wrestling League Championship centerfold. because of its allegedly "deplorable " practices, according to Kulik. He also stated that BSC is in a focal position, since it is located in Senior Congressman Daniel Flood's district. Also, Senator Murray has a nephew on the Board of Trustees. The college would definitely be able to let Congressmen know that the student body cares , if an organization is installed. If installed, it would be one of the first Common Cause movements on a Pennsylvania State campus, excluding Penn State which recently began their Common Cause movement. As of now, Common Cause is primarily working "on" three main areas. The first is the increasing of a system for candidates to report campaign finances. Although Governor Shapp has recently introduced a Bill - concerning this matter, Common Cause is working on a stricter Bill , which would include stringent penalties for those who do not report their finances properly. Common Cause is also working on "Sunset" legislation. This concerns a biyearly review of agencies within the government. The agencies would also have to explain their refunding to- a legislative committee. Sunset legislation has been passed in 13 other states. Decision overturned to fund track star f by CATHY POFFENBERGER Every so often an event occurs on BSC's campus which completely negates all complaints of student apathy. Just suc h a» ovent occurred last week in Montour Hall. Jeff Carruthers, BSC's record breaking high jumper, and .three other indoor track members , were scheduled to compete in last weekend's ICAAAA meet in Princeton , N.J. Funds to attend the meet were requested from CGA's Finan ce Committee and denied on the grounds that indoor track is not a CGA funded sport. Their judg ment was overturned by the CGA Executive Board who allocated the needed funds. That decision was in turn vetoed by President McCormick because of the precedent ,set by overturning the authority of the Finan ce Committee. As a result,, by last Wednesday, the selected track members could only participate in the meet if they could produce the $50 expen se costs themselves. 1 Carruthers is currently a Resident Advisor on the fourth floor of Montour Hall and when Montour 's Hall Council discovered the circumstances surrounding the up coming meet, they laun ched an enthusiastic campaign to raise as much money as they could to help send Jeff to Princeton. Their campaign began Wedn esday evening under the direction of Gary Delp, Hall Council VicePresident. The following night , the Council presented an un suspecting Carruthers, with the results of their 24-hour efforts — a check for $82,00 — more than enough to finance his trip. Kind of makes you^ feel good , doeshH It? The final major concern of the movement is to improve enforcement of the lobbying act. According to Kulik, lobbyists would have to report their finances also. CGA members expressed their interest in the program, however, Barb Fahey, CGA Vice-President, stated tha t until new officers were installed in CGA and CAS, the organization of the movement may cause some problems. CGA would like to state that any student interested in joining the Common Cause can pick up information and application forms in the CGA office. by JACICFURNISS • Energy is one of the key issues facing most Americans today and BSC is no exception. The striking soft coal miners still haven* t reached a settlement and the condition could become severe. BSC .depends quite heavily on coal but fortunately it is the anthracite, or the hard coal, variety. We are still receiving daily deliveries but there is no assurance that the anthracite workers will not also*decide this may be a good time to make some demands. To combat a phenomenon similar to this, Boyd Buckingham, Vice-President of Administration, keeps a sizable reserve of coal, aboui-2,500 tons, in storage located at the upper campus. The 50-60 tons delivered daily is what has been chiefly used to meet energy needs while saving the extra supply for an emergency. Buckingham estimates the extra coal to be capable of providing a two month reserve. Like all large institutions, BSC has a complex energy system. Some years ago when some of BSC's sister ' colleges opted for the more popular gasoline and electric systems. Bloomsburg - planners ten tney would rather stick with coal Committee to vote on decriiiiuialization submitted by ' . ' DONNA FISHER Do you know what happens if you get busted for smoking pot? In Pennsylvania , you can get up to a $500 fin e, 30 days in jail and a criminal record for the rest of your life. . NORML is fighting for those who enjoy smoking and don 't want the hassle that goes along with it. One of the items NORML is at work on is the decriminalization of marijuana. On March 18, the House Judiciary Committee will vote to release House Bill 904 to the House. This word comes from Bill Cluck of Pennsylvania NORML. At a recent CAS conference held at Millersville Stajte College, Cluck said, "if all goes well on March 13, we should seethe Bill come up for a vote late in May." If the Decriminalization Bill is passed, the most any body would receive is a $50 fine, similar to a traffic citation. The fine would be for possessing less than 30 grams. Show your support of this Bill by coming to hear Ken Adanii, Research Analyst for Rep. Norman Berson, the man who first presented the Bill to the House. , Adami will be joined by Dave Baeshore, Associate Director of CAS. He will give some words on what CAS is doing to help change marijuana laws.

Ricketts Glen State Park is one of the most scenic parks in Pennsylvania . The Glens Natural Area , a Registered National Landmark, is the main scenic attraction in the park. The two branches of Kitchen Creek flow down deep gorg es and come together at "Water Meet" and then flow past giant hemlocks for nearly two miles. . More than 33 waterfalls are contained within the park. These waterfalls have been formed by the cascading waters of Kitchen Creek as it flows through theGIen area . Th ehigh est waterfall in the park is the 94 foot Ganoga Falls. Man;y of the falls in the glen freeze over dining the winter months. This enables ice climbing enthusiasts to test their skills. The less daring individuals prefer to take a leisurely walk through the glen area to observe the intricate patterns the water takes pn when it freezes. A striking exam ple of this can be seen when observing ATJamsFalls at thestart of the Evergreen Trail. Ricketts Glenn State Park can be reached by taking Route 487 east .

Personally, I am extremely .tired of the ridiculous rumors that are spread around about the DOC Brothers and their parties, Being a female student, I have heard many stories and warnings about "those DOC boys ". However , when I questioned a person about the validity and source of the rumor, they usually answered, "I don't know, I've never been to DOC, I just heard ft," • What is equally aggravating to me is few students want to hear about the good things that DOC does, because it contrasts too sharply with their "image". Students would rather hear about the female mental and physical abuse that allegedly takes place. The fact tha t DOC Brothers went door - to - door on this campus and throughout the town, collecting money to buy gifts for the patients at the Selinsgrove State Center, does not have " the lippropfiate criteria for a typical DOC rumor. Because of the popularity of the DOC image, the fraternity tends to remain in the Public Eye. However, I feel students tend to forget that there are other fraternities and sororities campus on this many of which I doubt can honestly say their slates are clean. Furthermore, I feel the IFC's decision to suspend DOC was made too abruptly and without enough indepth investigation. Without proper investigation, I question the validity of DOC's suspension. The IPC failed to make clear what the charges specifically were, therefore making the entire matter too choice of beverage, a cookie and mints. Ybu»get a patch which says "Be nice to me, I gave blood." It is all over. Now all you have to do is drink extra liquid for the next few days and keep your bandage on for four hours. \ The goal for this bloodmobiie drive is 270 pints. Considering there are 5000 people on campus, this should be easy to obtain our goal if those who are eligible to donate, do so. No one knows when he or some of his loved ones will need blood, and the program is for the benefit of all.' Yet, so few give for something that may be required to save a human life.

All of the finalists will be competing at the national by CINDY PECK Lacrosse has been called "the fastest game on two feet. " Perhaps the BSC women 's lacrosse team will prove that when the women begin their season on April 5 at Millersville. Women 's lacrosse came originally from England in about 1935. It is a running game of attack and defense. Unlike the men's game , women 's lacrosse involves no physical contact, so a great deal of jud gement and spatial flexibility is required. A stick and hard rubber ball are used in the game. Running with the ball cradled in the stick is involved. The object is to pass the ball, trying to connect passes to reach the goal. Two 25-'minute halves make up a game, with a 10-minute break at halftime. There are no time-outs ir. a game, and no substitutes except for injuries. Thirty-six girls are out for this season's team. According to Coach B.J. Host, the squad will be cut to 24 by March 17. Included in the 36 are members of last year's team, as well as some talented freshmen. Lacrosse is played mostly in larger cities, so the students who play here are mainly from the Philadelphia area . Five or six beginners are out for the team. Rost remarked that lacrosse is a very difficult sport to learn in one year. However, Ellen French , an "outstanding exception as someone who learned the sport in one year", has graduated. She was BSC's talented goalkeeper last season . Scilla Elliott and Ellie Hatch are the teamfs co-captajns . ¦ Seniors who will be seeing action are Mary Balaban , Nancy Carothers, and Cathy Hotchkiss. "We're looking forward to a really good season. We have the potential to be a very good team," stated Rost. "The girls are working hard ; we have some very skilled people." The coach also stated that the team will have some strong competitors. Bucknell and Millersville will be the toughest teams to beat, the coach feels. She noted that Millersville, BSC's first competitor, is a particularly fast team, and always provides good competition . In its third season as a BSC sport, the Husky lacrosse team has increased its schedule to five games with the addition of Shippensburg. Rost speculated that Shippensburg and BSC, having organized their teams in the same year, should be on a fairly even par, Although last year's record was 1-3, with the team 's only win over Lebanon Valley, Rost is hoping for better results in 1978. "I hope we can start from where we left off last year; we were pretty good at the end of the season," she remarked. Because of the snow and cold weather, the girls have been conditioning and drilling in Centennial Gym, The team's schedule for W78 follows: April 5 — at Millersville , 3:30 ; April 13 — Bucknell , 3:30; April 18 — Lebanon Valley, 3:30; April 22 — Kutztown, 1:00; April 27 — at Shippensburg, 3;30.
