Nixon 's Gamble

In committing American troops
to Cambodia , President Nixon
turned his back on the Nixon Doctrine he promulgated only a few
months ago. In essence the doctrine said the U.S. would not become Involved In the affairs of
other countr ies, and jvould let
them solve their problems with out inter ference .
There is, of course , a plausible reason for the invasion of
Cambodian
soil by American
troo ps. That is to destroy the
sanctuarie s established along the
Cambodian -South Vietnam bor der by the North Vietnamese. It
is a fact , the sanctuaries have
been there for years , and theref ore A mer icans are enti t led t o a
more detailed explanation .for Mr .
Nixon 's reasoning .
The presid ent can come out of
this Cambodian adventure a hero ,
one whose statur e will be greatly
enhanced at home and abroad .
But that depend s primarily on
containing this latest expan sion
of the war to only neutralization
of the sanctuaries . To become
more deeply involved; to move
inside Cambodia and take up the
defense of that countr y would only
be a continuation of a tragic misadventure this country cannot af1UL U.

For decad es the United States
has been .warned not to become
entra pped in an Asian land war .
Only yesterday Vice-Presldent
Agnew flatly admitted that this
nat ion cannot win a lan d war I n
Asia. Wh ether destroying the
Cambodian sanctuaries is act .
ually a contribution to Vietnam ization (as Mr . Nixon conte nds)
will have to await developmen ts
within the next two month s. We
hope Mr. Nixon and his advisors
have Judged the situation correctly and that U.S. troop s pull
b ack , as he promised , after secur ing the sanctuaries.
Vietnam has divided t h i s
countr y more t h an an y thi n g since
the Civil War , mainly because we
are
fighting on the enemy 's
terms. Perhaps to fight other wise would court a nuclea r confrontation . The Cambodian committment may test the restr aint
of all the great powers — this
nation included . We hope it does
not come down to an eye-ba ll-toeye-ball confrontat ion in t h e
sights of nuclear bombs .
Early in 1968 , when he campaigned for the presidency , Mr .
Nixon said he had a plan to end
the Vietnam War. Since he took
office In January 1969 , the nat ion
has been waiting for him to reveal that plan. The Cambodi an
Invas ion is ample proof thatMr .
Nixon has no such plan and that
his statement two years ago was

pure campaign oratory. In the
mean ti me we su bs ist on W ar
Time Economy, one th at deman ds
that priorities be given to manufacture of weapons. Our taxe s
are geare d to the Vietn am War
and our problem s mount at home.
The grea t cities of this nation

are decaying, rac ial unre st Is
mount ing and the college campus es are r ipe for anarch y. All thi s
can be att ributed to our involvement in Vietnam and the govern ment duplicity that says this is
a war but at the same time it is
not , because no war has been deo lar pri .

Are we to have wars forever ,
or until one great power or another loses its patience and unleashe s nuclear warfare ? Is
Geor ge Orwell' s vision of t h e
future which we saw in the novel
"1984" corre ct? Is the day of
Big Brothe r at hand when all
thought and action are controlled?
If Mr. Nixon's gamble back fires , his popularity will suffer ,
he could become a one-term pr esident , and what is worse , this
nati on will fall deeper into the
Asian Quicksa nd.

Summer
Session s

Bloomsburg State College will
offer three sessions during the
summer of 1970 accordin g to Rob ert L. Bunge, re gistrar. These
courses will offer a broad pro gram on instruction — cultural ,
ac ade mic , and professional. All

12:50 p.m. The post-session will
be held from Monday, Augu st 10,
through Friday , August 28 , and
will h ave the same class per iods,
of those in the pre-session.
During the first week of pre session only, all graduate courses and a few selecte d courses on
the undergraduate level will be
held In the evening Instead of dur ing the day In orde r to accommodate
in-service
teachers
finishing their public school
teach ing assignments .

Students may earn three semester hours of credit in the
regular courses of pr e - and
post sessions. Six semester
hours of credi t may be take n in

Dear Editor:
During the past two weeks ,
many
people hav e been expre ssing their views , both verb ally and physically , concern in g
the recent events both home and
abroad . The major ity of these
expressions have been from the
left wing of the political spectru m
and consequently have been emotional , irrational , use less , and
sometimes destructive . There f ore , I feel that a rational response from the conservati ve
viewpoint is in order .
Conservatism , to paraphrase
Wil liam Buckley , is the politics
of realism and rationalism . The
liberal and lunatic left has clear ly demonstrated
that It lacks
these qual ities and has , there fore , been unable to capture the

support of the freeithinkin g, rational , and realistic outlook on
the problems facing Amer ica,
Bloomsbur g State College has
demonstra ted this on a smaller scale . Last Thursday 's rally
is an excellent example. Bloomsbur g's leftists finally thought they
had somethin g they could pin on
President Nixon and they hurriedl y rallied to the occasion .
Their efforts yielded a rally,
which was well conducted , but
tota lly use less, emotional , and
irrational . They failed to do
anything but voice their own
irrational opinions and give B.
S.C .'s silent majority an extended weekend .
If the radica ls of this country ' s campuses continue their
destructive ways and if the liberal professors and college pres idents continue their acquie.
scence , more Inc idents like that
at Kent State will occur . If they
cont inue to make fools of them selves with their senseless boycotts and rallies people will stop
listening . Either way , they lose.
And when they lose , the rat ional , realistic people of this country will rebuild what they have
destr oyed .

"C oncern for the rights of oth . ers has long been recognized as

It is possible that some few may

Not Quite A Fable
ji m sachetti
"Big bird flying across the sky.
Throwing shadow on our eyes,
Leave s us helpless , helpless,
helpless "
Neil Young
For quite some time now , that
big bird of State has been flying
across the sky; always pr oudly, always graciously, always
dutifully , always rightfully. For
one hundred and eighty-four years
that beautiful , magnificent bird
flew. And then one day , in full
view of its admirers , it rumbled , it belched , it shit. And ten
years have passed since that fateful day, 40 t 000 men have died ,
its shadow has grown menacing, its Mends have begun to
wonder if it will ever be clean
again , and we are helpless, helpless....helpless.
BUMS , EFFETES , IM PUDENTS, SNOBS; we are , without
a doubt , the lar gest an d most
important group of veterinarians
(or bird doctors if you like) the
worl d has ever seen. Somew here
up t here , f ar above us , the re files
a sick bird of State . In recent
years , our bird has taken to
flying too high , for we have seen
nau ght of him Lately but his menacing shadow . Our bird has flown
to war and its dubious reward.

He has not heeded our wishes,
_our demands . Our bird is sick
and he needs our help.
Our bird of State has fore saken his people for that root
of all evil , money, from whence
grows the tree of corporation.
He gorges himself on the fruit
of the tree then flies off , diarrhea
ridden , and fouls our landscape
with pollution. Our bird conspires
with "all the (Wall Street) piggies, in their starched white
shirts " . He promi ses them war to
fill their economic troughs. Our
bird , my bird , is sick.
The bird of state has been
seen han ging around with foul
(fowl) friends (and you know what
they say about birds of a feather).
It has been seen following a
'once thought to be extinct ' bird
about the sky. They have been
seen playin g in foreign bird baths. I fear they may both drown .
O ur bi r d h as also been seen in
the company of trig-bea ked Splr row s' (whaddaya mean , you spell
it with an A?). If you've ever
heard a Spirrow sing, you know
how sickening that can be.
So you see my friends , our bird
has flown upon hard times. But '
the times they are a chan gin1.
How do I- know? I saw it In
Bloomsburg. 1 saw It on a Thurs -

day, on a hill , in a dream . And
suddenly , I didn't feel * helple ss
anymore. For a while there .
I was wondering if anybody , let
alone the people in Bloomsburg ,

Give Peace A Chance
Dick , How Could You?

by Frank Clifford
" If you need a friend , I'm
sailing right behind , I will comfort you " Sound familiar?
Each and every one of us needs
a friend , someone who 'll listen to
us, someone who 'll try to do
something about our troubles .
Based on this information , we
may safely conclude that the president of the United States is not
a friend of his people,
Dick , now I can see how you
got your name . So yo u 've been
wondering why we were rallying
so fiercely. Well it was because
you name saked (dicked) us .
I'm not unjustly calling Mr .
Nixon a liar . It's just that when a
person says he will stop playing
chess with human beings by
bringing America home where it
belongs; and turns around and
sends MORE soldiers over to the
slaughter , well , I don 't know
what else to call someone who 'd
do that .
War is a funny thing. Mass
murder, but not murder, (a sampie of the Nixon logic). You may

day when the Vietnam war no
longer exists? Wait ! Don 't tell
me . You have one holy mess of
a Middle East war involvement
up your sleeve. It just might as
well be called the MEDDLE East
war, with you sticking your nose
into it.
When I first saw your face on
the news reels I somehow got the
impression that you were a
sneaky, conniving liar , not to be
trusted . Gee, ain 't it funny how
first impressions turn out right?
Let's not get the impression
that Mr . Nixon isn 't doing his
jo b. I mean, SOMEBODY has t o
conduct the Easter egg hunts on
the White House lawn every year.
People , young men, the backbone of America, don 't grow
on trees . You said you were going to combat the population explosion during your campaign.
But for chrissake , Dick , nobody
suspected that you were going to
do it this way.
EASY WAYS TO GET AWAY
Everybody 's mad at you, Dick.
WITH IT .
Everybody 's talkin '. All we 've
Dick , what are you going to saying, to quote a song, is give
do when we reach that inevitable peace a chance.

but you have to play it by
the rules; you may kill only a
certain way. War should only take
place where it doesn 't do a damn
bit of good? That 's what 's happening to American soldiers now,
I mean, if we 're going to fight
and kill , why not do it wholescale? So what the hell if we are
being slaughtered in this gay,
light pastime? Sure, Nixon can
shrug off everything by saying
that the war was here when he
entered office. That 's right , but
let's face it Mr . President , in»
stead of dropping the hot pota*
to , you seem to have closed your
fist on it. Killing is an art . Oh,
Di ck , you and I know how foolish
Cain was. He killed his own
brother , so he can't be all bad;
but gadammit, he didn 't go about
it in the advanced , sophisticated ,
scientific , Nixon way.
Here 's a good title for your
biography: MURDE R , AND TEN

Peace Now!

Why didn 't people come out ?
What was in those dorm s that was

(Little did the shut-ins know : they
had a spokesman
Porte r told everyb ody to go home
So everybody who would have gone

"I was convincing my parents of

Uh huh , sure

make these few simple demands .
1. Full written , public apology

Norton and President Nossen.
Norton for bringing the charges
and Nossen for being unaware of
the irrational action taken by the
people under him ,
2. Full repayment of the money needed to maintain .my school

amount is $300 lawyer 's fees and
$10.00 traveling expenses.

Dear Ed
Webster 's New Collegiate defines valediction as a farewell.
Though i don't intend to play the
role of a high school valedictorian bidding Bloomsburg a tearfilled , goodbye, I would like this,
my final appearance, or letter, or
rambling, or whatever else you
migh wish to call it, to be some*
what of a reflection on what has
come about and some of those
people who have come and gone
before us, making our school
what it is today .
Things have changed these last
four years since I first came to
Bloomsbur g as a gawking,slightly apprehensive, certainly unobtrusive and unknown freshman.
Some change has been for the
good, some not so good . But
-whatever the case I'm glad to
have been an integral part of
this association for I think that
these past four years have been
one of the most nonstatic periods
in the history of our college.
It irks me when I hear students
bemoaning the ills of our college especially bemoaning without offering something con structive to replace what is supposedly so bad, I'm the first to
agree no man-made institution is
perfect and this certainly does
not exclude BSC. But my philosophy regarding change has been to
work through the system to bring
the necessary change about . But
the trouble is that as soon as
someone makes a statement such
as this , he 's immediately labeled
as a patsy for the administration
and usually has about as much
chance of getting elected to office as a Chinese midget . This is
the feeling which has engulfed the
pseudo-liberals and the followalong dupe s who subscribe to this
phil osophy. But for the most part
it is generally these sort of people who have held the high student
posts on campus recently, A
prime example of this could be
with regards to CGA Presidents
who after Steve Boston-a person
whom I especially respected as a
leader and as a person-to John
Ondish (even then the students
weren 't accepting the Dignity and
Tact" campaign of Bob Boose),
to the great leader of SURGE
(Students United to do something
or other I think) Ron Schultz,
who when running against Larry
Ward (my predecessor I might
add) promised to rip Bloomsburg
down a thousand times If necessary (not addin g much In the
way of constructiv e and sensible replacements if I remember
correctly) unti l lastyear when we
hit an all-ti me low in our most
Immediat e Past President ,
But how do you explain this
year 's •lection of a moderate
left ist as opposed to a true left*
s

1st (by BSC standards at least).
All I can say to this is that final'
ly the great silent apathetic majority of students decided to make
themselves heard and not be tyranized by vocal though closeknit minorit y.
Maybe because I' ve seen things
as they were makes me so
gratified when a constructive
change does come about . During
my unprecented two terms as
President of ARM I have seen
many things come about within
our Association . Up until last
year we never had an open-house
policy as such at Bloomsburg.
Sure we had open-houses from
time to time but never on a regular basis. I directed the initiation and saw the fruUion of
such a policy, though somewhat
limited, nevertheless in effect .
It took much persuasion to convince those in authority that because of our new policy, Bloomsbur g wouldn't turn into the sexpot of Pennsylvania, I worked
through the system and proved
to those in authority that the
plan had merit .
Having spent three years on the
Judiciary Board (the last two
as Chairman) I have seen change
here . It was under my direction
and constant proddin g that I was
able to convince the administration of the great benefits to be
derived from giving, in certain
instances, students who have been
caught doing some serious offense a chance by rooming them
instead of immediately throwing
them out of school . If you don 't
think that this is an important
innovation and improvement, ju st
ask those students who have been
charged with a serious offense
within the last two years and
see if they weren 't glad to have
been given the choice.
Now I could go on and on, and
citing changes (the freedom of
the press enjoyed by this publication, the ability of the Gadfly
to be distributed on campus, the
reduction of women 's hours, etc.)
but what I feel it all comes down
to is how to affect the change. I
feel that whatever change that
might come about must come
fr om within by the duly constituted authorities . Now this
doesn 't mean that if you want to
effect a particular change and after having asked and been rejected you should stop pursuing
your goal. Not in the least . But
it does mean that if after being
rejected so often, perhaps then it
is time to go back and look to see
if your plan really has any merit .
For ultimately I do believe that we
must have faith in those in authority, questioning them if necessary, but when it comes down to
that final decision , they must be
the ones to make it . When I chose
to come to Bloomsburg I knew
that there would be certain rules
by which I would have to abide,
for despite what anyone says, we
do and should expect to give up
certain rights and freedoms when
we enter an institution such as a
college . And though an academic
community has traditionally been
that place which is devoted to
generally uninhibited expression
of beliefs , if one finds things so
intolerable at that institution to
which he is going, then perhaps
the best thing for him to do is
to leave for a school more to his

in the future .

Dear Editor :
Events at Kent State which clim axed in the death of four students can only be described as
terrifying. An academic community has been torn apart , beset by tragedy and the end is not
in sight.
We of the PSCPA mour n the
death of the students killed at
Kent State . We also deplore the
use of violence; the death of these
students can only lead to more
death if the problems that spark

eJLetter

Mr . Blass —

In this era of protest without
program , and dissent without dialogue, responsibility for intelligent reaction has been mired in
the unfathonable muck of the
"Fifth Column ," Feb. 1970.
Has the vocabulary of present
day college student reporters become so depleted that refuge must
be taken in the language of the
gutters; to express oral and written communication or is this
dubi ous privilege the proud possession of you ?
Are prurient interests your
sole intercourse with outer intelligent beings or a reflection
of the level of morality to which
you cling?
Has education and civilized society so sickened you that you
feel compelled to lash out at the
world in this feeble protest of
curious maturity?
Your odd reasoning that so c ailed "healthy American words "
are not acceptable because of a
whole bunch of "self righteous
people" think they are synonymous with a Communist takeover ,
perversion etc. is as empty as a
garbage scow coming Into port.
Boy, you live in your own vacuum and are grasping at the
"low " ban to keep from flaying to
the spiritual which distresses
you deeply — else why the persecution of society, ultimately
the Diety ?

W A S HIN G T O N.

*

By Martin Kleiner
(News Editor)
In the earl y hours of Satur day
mora ing the crowd began to
gather. Students from as far away
as Wisconsin and as far South as
Florida with people from the entire East coast . They had come
to protest the slaughter in Vietnam , Cambodia , and Kent State .
At noon the ra lly had convene d .
Visible were many p osters and
signs like " P eace Pl ease " or
"Aven ge Kent State ," The speak ers mounte d the platfor m and the
meet ing was ready .
Dr . Benjamin Spock was the
Mas ter of Cere monies and the
first to speak . In his speech he
salut ed those who had died for
peace and those Black Panthers
who died for freedom .
Other speakers present were
Mrs , Coretta Kin g. Senators Jacob Jav its (D-N.Y.) and Edward
Brook e (ft-Mass ,), Black Panther
Danie l Billings, who wor ked his
way throu gh the crowd carrying
an enormous cruc ifix , Jane Fon *

da , and finally David Dellinger ,
In Dellinger 1s speech , which
was peppered with epithets , he
talked or Nixon 's war not J ust in
Vietnam and Cambodia but at
home against the student s and
Black Panthers . He further accused Nixon of supporti ng the
move of t he Nat iona l Guar d at
Kent State by calling the students
UUIIIB ,

Suddenly, at t he cli max of a
very emotional speech Dellinger
screame d "Fuck Nixon, Fuck the
War . " This chant was picked
up by the crowd until coffins bear *
in g names suc h as " K ent State ",
"A merl ka" , "Black Panth ers "
and "Freedom " , made their way
to the platfor m .
At the close of the meeting the
masses of Federal workers ,
housew ives, Senators , business men , and students walked behind
the caskets up 15th street singing "Give Peac e a Chance " and
chant ing "Peace now ".
Stopped by Busses
After moving up IS St . to P enna .

Ave . the protestor s were stopped by busses , blocking them
from Lafayette Park and T h e
White H ouso, Approximately 50
demonstrator s tried to over *
th row a bus but were dr iven back
to 16 and Eie St . with tear gas.
At this time the demonstrators
moved back and things seemed
to cool down .
At thi s point I do not feel I can
re port with objectivity so I ask
anyone Inte rested to read my feature article of that same day.
Addendum :
I would like to salute the M orn ,
ing Pre ss for their typi cally conservat ive (and inaccurate) estimate of 500 for the Thursday ral ly. As News Edito r of the M&G
an d as an Intereste d observe r along with other staff member s we
estimated the crowd to be about
1250 faculty , staf f , and student s.
Hope your estimates soon lm.
prove . And also salute the pre ss
f or not ment ion in g Dr . Eric Sml*
thner who spoke about the war
in a literary sense and Mr ,
George Turner who introd uced
t he f acu lt y reso lut ion.

Pra y er

for
Peace
Lord , make me an instrument
of your peace, where there is
hatred , let me sow love; where
ther e is injury, pardon, where
there is doubt , faith; where there
is darkness , light ; ' and where
there is sickness, j oy.
Grant that I may not so much
seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand ; to be loved as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we
are pardoned; and it is in dying
that we are born to eternal life.

McLaughlin Returns to

and West Cheste r . The loss to

The swimmers will sorely miss
these two top -notch performers .
However , there will be i4 other

com peting for the Huskies next
year .
Team coach Tom Houston who
was filling in for Eli McLau ghlin
this year , will also be missed ;
he put in a tremendous amount of
time and effort to make the year
a success.
The final tally found BSC a
dissappointing 4th in the State
Cham pionship this year , possibl y a little over-trained and past
their peak , it is difficult to tell
when dealin g with swimmin g.
But next year is yet another

1969 Record of 2-6
Hoped to be Improved In 70

With the exception of two games
the least that can be said for the
1969 Husky gridiron gladltor s is
that they were disappointing .
Finishing with a 2-6 record they
became a lesson in failure . The
way they lost their games was
flukey except for two but making
excuses is no way to win football
games.
In the first game of the season the Lock Haven Eagles edged
the Huskies 28-25. Without Ernie
Vedral , BSC missed three PAT 's
to lose the game. Alex Kapozhad
a great game as he completed 17
of 33 passes for 288 yards and 2
touchdowns. It took a 66 yard intercepti on run back for a TD and a
tipped pass to put LHSC on the
Scoreboard as the winner.
I n t he season 's second game
Stu Casterlln e put on a one man
show for Mansfield to beat the
Huskies , 34-21. Even the n BSC
was still in the game . In the 4th
quarter , but Casterline came up
with the big plays all day to win.
The first of many injuries (QB Alex Kosaey) occurred against
BSC and set the tune for the games
to come .
Game three rolled around and

It was two in a row as Cheyney

B-Ballers Record
15-8 Season

The Husky basketball •team of
Coach Voss battled their way to
a 15-8 season and a berth in the
District 19 NAIA playoffs.
With stars like M ark Yanchek,
Bob Snyder , Bill Mastropietro,
Jim Platukis and Howard Johnson on the same court and team,
the results have to be pro-BSC .
Snyder was voted the Redman
trophy, a second team all-state
berth, and honorable mention-NA
IA all star team. Snyder, who
hails from Montrose , Pa., is one
of the best to ever play in the
Maroon and Gold. Yanchek, Mastropietro, and Larry Monaghan
are three other seniors who will

be missed after graduation.
The season was a constant
thriller. The home and home series with Mansfield as well as the
NAIA playoff game with MSC
which the Huskies lost 92-90 in
double overtime were some of
the seasonal highlights. Others
were: the 121 point at Centennial against Shippensburg, and
the victory over West Chester
which clinched the NAIA playoff
berth .
With a strong freshmaj i team
to be added next year , the Husky
fans will again be in for a magnificent season.

Keady , Set, Win....

Harrie rs Post 10-2 Season
The Harriers of B.S.C.'s cross
country team, this year posted
the winningest record In the history of cross-country at Bloomsburg; that is 10 and 2.
The team is made up of Dave
Feiter (Jr.), Mike Dufrayne
(soph) Paul Dellitier (soph) Scott
Rogers (soph) Larry strohl
(soph), Mike Silvetti )soph), Bob
Bentzincer (Erosh), Rich Ecrer.

sly (frosh), Charlie Graham
(Jr osh), Terry Lee (frosh) and
Tim Waechter Cfrosh).
The teams strength came primarily from the running strength
of Freshmen Tim Waechter, and
Terry Lee, as the team had no
seniors. The same squad will
again be running next year possibly to the State Championship.
Coach Clyde Noble sees good

prospects for next_ year with,
hopefully a better experienced
team. This year the Harriers
had a difficult time at the Championships taking only seventh. But
they came back to take second in
the N.A.I.A . District Championships.
With a little luck, next year
could be the year.

Win at States
The 35th annual track and field
Cham pionships of the Pa . State
Colleges athletic conference was
held last weekend at Slippery
Rock State College. The Huskies
went into this meet with an 8 and
1 recor d , with their only loss to
Millersville . The cindermen put
up a good fight but bowed to Miller sville in the end as the Maraders took first place with a
score of 125 pts , Bloomsburg was
second with 97 points , Slippery
Rock , third , Kutztown , fourt h ,
Lock Haven , fifth , Edinboro ,
sixth , E . Stroudsbur g, seventh ,
Shlppensb ur g, eighth , C larion ,
ninth , and Mansfield tenth .
The Huskies partici pated in the
cham pion ships without the aid of
Jim Davis, school record holder
in the 100 and 220 yard dashes .
They were also with out the services of John Ficek who holds the

school shot put record . Both of
these participants were injured
in previous meets . Standouts for
Bloomsburg were RickeyEckert ,
who became state Cham pion in
the 220 yard dash in a time of
22 .3 and also Steve Ryznar who
took the title in the Tri ple jum p
for the second year in a row with
a jump of 44 feet and Va inch .
Othe r top scorers for Bloomsbur g were : the 44 yard relay of
M aster s , the only individual scorers who are seniors were Berger , and Yanchek , and Bittner ,
so almost the entire team will
be returned next season . Add a
couple of new freshmen and this
team could possibly take the State
Title next year . "Even withou t
a trac k ."
Congratulations to coach Puhi
and the entire track team for a
job well done.
