EDITORIAL...
BSC received a bit of spring-lik e weather this week , and the campus
was littered with students lolling about in the sun an d sitting on steps
outside of dormito ries and class room buildings . Although one does not
usually see so many people about , all activity seemed to cease. Yes, it
seemed like there was nothing to do at BSC, bu t everybody seemed to enjoy doing nothing.
Too many people complain abou t the lack of types of recreation at
Bloomsburg, but they don 't really try to do anything.
On Tuesday evening, several M&G staff members attended a meeting
of the Archaeology Club at which they were the only student s present.
The meeting was intended to reorgani /e the club In order to pr epare for
Spring digging, but it now looks like the group will not be in existence
this semeste r.
From the appearance of the campus this past week , it does seem that
BSC students do like to spend time outdoors in war m weather. The
Archaeology club doe s spend time outdoors in warm weather; yet , there
* weren 't enou gh students present at the meeting to form the organization.

Dear Dean Hoch :
Thank you for a pleasant visit at
Bloomsburg State College . You
and the members of your staff
were most generou s with your time
and hospitality. We began feeling
at home very quickly.
As President Lanford noted , we
were deeply impressed by the
friendliness and cooperative spirit
on your campus. It is an enviabl e
quality and one to be treasured.
Again, thank you for all you did
to make our visit so pleasant.
Sincerely.

Bible Read ing Controvers y

Anthon y Sylvester
Mr. Charles Jackson recently
sent a letter to the Mornin g Press
in which he commented on the Bible re ading controvers y, His letter
takes issue with the views of those
who questioned the legality of
some of the activities takin g place
in local schools. Mr. Jackson 's argument was that "th e three incidents were not requirement s of the
school officials , and therefore were
not remotely connected with the
Schempp and Murray decision s , because these were the acts of individuals. " His position seems to be

that while the school board may
not insist on Bible reading it
equally cannot forbid it as this
would be unconstitutional in that
j I violate s the second phrase of the
first .Amendment < " or prohibit the
free exerc ise thereof; i . Such rash
and p recipitous action of actually
forbidding Bible reading, prayer ,
or any other religious activity " by
h schoo l board should , he recommended , be challen ged , in the
courts.

Perhaps this following statement
from the county solicitor general
will serve to answer the questions
and doubts:
"Under the above decisions and
opinion , daily Bible reading in our
public schools can no longer be require d since the pertinent section
of our School Code was declared
to be unconstitutional , and recitation of the Lord 's Prayer can no
longer be practiced as a rule or
part of the policy of a School
Board . Further , accordin g to the
interpretation of the decision by
the Attorney General , neither Bible reading nor recitatio n of the
Lord' s Prayer may be permitted
by School Boards in the public
schools. Th is eliminates any choice
on the part of the individua l administrators , teachers , and parents.
It is very clear that any responsibility involved is placed directl y
upon School Board members and
their administrators. " (Morn ing
Press : March 13, 1969, p. 5.)
Toward Diversified Admissions

Isn 't it about time BSC studen ts

Some professors in liberal arts
ar gue that a maj or dependence on
objective tests is a bad thin g. They
claim that the main pur pose of a
college education is to teach students how to think (to analyse )
and that the only way a student
can learn to think is to practice its
intricacies by putting his thou ghts
down on paper where he and his
prof essor can examine them. Some
of these ivory-t ower types go so
far as to claim that the only skills
taught at a college are the abilit y
to think and the ability to write
and speak well. According to these
fuzzy heade d liberals (get the
pun ?) students forget 509& of the
facts and idea s contained in courses before the final exam and the
remaining 50% before they graduate. They further assert that if a
large fraction of teachers depend
mostly on objective tests, students
don 't get sufficient practice in self
expression so that skills they may
have learned in English comp and
lit courses deteriorates by the time

The i r p ositi on is surel y unfair.
Most of us ask students to write
paper s in which they get to practice self expression and we're pretty rough on the student who we
discover is not expressing himself

Association ;They Said A Mouthful
by L. Ennis
"It happened as a divine intervention through the process of
electri c osmosis, we wound up into
a six, now seven man band ." So
said organist Jim Yester of the
birth of the Association at a preperformance informal interview on
Wednesda y night , And after hearing their show , no one could doubt
that our friendly neighborhood Association is of divine origin.
The "now seven man band" consists of seven amazingly adaptable
and creative men: Larry Ramos ,
Russ Giguere , Brian Cole, Ted
Bluechel , Gary Alexander , Jim
Yester and Terry Kirkman. The
latter two had draped themselves
on the yellow couch that haunts
the off-stage room in Haas , and
thus we were able to corner them
there. Terry and Jim were quite
©graphical
location s and social
classes. Thin creates an academic
climate unresponsive to and even
hostile to chan ge.
If present conditions are to be
improved, we must destro y the apparent idea that BSC is a "teacher
factory " for a limited section or
region. Altering the image of this
college, no simple task in itself , is
only the first step on the road to
progress. It must coincide with the
development of an aware student
body, concerned with more than
just obtaining a diploma. Programs
mu st be instituted to allow financially deprived members of minority groups to enroll here (even if
it meant lowerin g our precious academic standards in certain instances ).
These are but a few of the necessary chan ges needed to ada pt
BSC to the world, instead of attempting to preserve an apparently isolated and outmoded miniculturc on this campus.

Those who saw the performance
will know Jim as the blue-velo ured, ascotted Bird Man who occasionally sprinted to the left of the
stage to perform. Eddie Edwards
was there for WHLM and was particularly curious about Jim ' s nicknam e—
WHLM: How did you pick up the
nickname , Jim?
Jim: I fly a lot .
Terry: He has the body of a man
and the mind of a bird.
Jim: Prior to my going in the army

falcons , hawks and owls and sort of
a semi-professional ornithologist

Jim: That' s right . You ' re talking

Question: Do you think that their

Terry: No. Just like the people in
your community. Their evening
doesn 't depend on the m having

Jim: You can even make it through
an evening without TV!
Terry: People take any kind of
hang-up which a perfor mer has
and they magnify it and refuse to
see that which goes on ar ound the
community and generally the community is much sicker than the
people going on stage.
Question: You don't thin k they ' re
a reflection of the community?
Terry: They 're probably a reflection of rebellion against the community.

AstrosBringBag
Of Tricks
The famed Harlem Astronauts,
the clowns of the hardwood , will
visit Centennial Gym on Monday ,
March 24. The Harlem boys will
bring their bag full of tricks, and
also many laugh-provoking gimmicks. There'll be the water bucket, trick balls, and many things
to make you smile. "You'll love to
see the Astros pick on all opposing
players, referees, and yes even the
fans.
There will be plenty of clowning,
but you will also see an abundance
of good, exciting basketball. Clever
ball handling is a trademark with
the Harlem boys. There is always
humor in seeing the other fellow
getting fooled. The Astros, like the
long-time CBS feature, "Candid
Camera," capitalize on every situation. Chief laugtenakers will be
Wiley Briggs and Joe-Joe Byers.
Regarded as the best two-man comedy team in all of basketball,
they'll keep you laughing. You never know what to expect next.
The Astronauts are being
brought here by Sigma Iota Omega
fraternity. Game time is 8:00 p.m.,
and advance tickets may be purchased at Husky Lounge and from
the SIO brothers.
The Fraternity AH Stars will furnish the opposition (act as victims?) for the boys from Harlem.
It should be a real battle.

Coaching the UCLA basketball
team isn .'t all a bed of roses, according to an article in the current
issue of SPORT Magazine revealing the players' attitudes toward
curfews, training rules , coach John
Wooden and superstar Lew Alcindor.
The players' attitude toward
their coach was indicated during
the period before a recent tournament game when coach Wooden
imposed a 10:30 curfew on the ballclub.
"We'll all ignore the man as usual ," commented one player.
In answer to a question about
what action Wooden would take if
a player were caught out after curfew, forward Lynn Shackelford replied :
"It all depends on how you're
playing. If you've been playing
good, he'll let you go pretty much
as you please. It's,been a lot looser
since the big man came."
Another player, taking another
view, says in the SPORT article:
"What upsets everyone is that
when we come in late and get
caught , we catch hell, but they
don 't say a word to Lew."
Also on the subj ect of Alcindor,
one of his teammates explained:
"He gets a lot of satisfaction
from being by himself . He's not
that close to (Sid) Wicks or (Curtis) Rowe—they're younger, and
seeking their own pleasures—and
he doesn 't like to get that close to
whites."
That coaching Lew Alcindor and
the UCLA basketball team creates
its own special pressures was admitted by Wooden in his answer
to an inquiry as to whether coaching would be more fun when Alcindor is gone.
"I'll be glad when I can coach to
win again instead of not to lose,"
concluded Wooden in the SPORT
article.

Tryouts for the grassing team
were announced today by Coach
Cloverback. The coach said he expected to carry a 700 to 800 member team: "Our team will have to
be evenly proportioned" drawled
Cloverback. "We don 't want none
of those commie pinko perverts
(sic) on our team! !!"
The sport itself , is an old one
here at BSC. It has been played by
mixed doubles here for many
years. The only problem is that the
participants must supply their own
equipment. The coach noted a
blanket (the principle playing surface ) could be purchased rather inexpensively.
It was hoped the students would
throw themselves into the swing of
things with great vigor but with
some form of restraint until the
onset of the regular season.
Coach Cloverback said , "this is
the kinda sport that really gets to
the grassroots people."
The season itself starts Apri l 1st
(but don't be foolish—p ractice
makes perfect ) with a meet
against the team from Arkansas
( the Razorbacks).
"All I can say is get in there
and start pitching (preferably
hay) . Everyone should j oin the
grassing team; jus t for the fun
( thrill) of it.
Students trying out for the team
are asked to help clear the soccer
field of rocks and other dangerous
obstructions. Also trimming the
pines so no eyes are damaged in
the ensuing battles.
We , the members of the M&G
staff , wish the team members a
successful and fulfilling season
with the proper precautions taken.

Husk iettes
Break Even
The Women 's Extramural Basketball team concluded their season with four wins and four losses,
when they were defeated by Marywood 39-27. The team put forth a
supreme effort against the undefeated Marywood . Unable to produce the desired results they
fought a good fight. The high scorers for the game were Betsy Lucadamo and Kathy Streleckis both
with 7 points.
The team with only four returning players had to rely on an inex perienced bench to meet the
challenge placed before them. The
returnin g players were co-captains ,
Mar g Boyer and Dora Hillegas , Peg
Fetcho and Connie Jarrard . Along
with the regular s a lot of new
blood was introduced. Betsy Lucadamo was high scorer for the season with 58 points. O thers were
Phyllis C onner, ShirJey Gelsler,
Sue Mitchell , J anet Santo , Barb
St ancli ffe , Kath y Streleckis, Dot
Voystock and Peggy Walters.

Jim noted that next year "there
will be changes in the weight
classes and this may have some effect on the whole spirit." Likewise
he noted that Coach Houk "is
working hard at recruiting and always bringing in good freshmen

As this issue comes out on Friday, the wrestlers are in Utah now
and I'm sure the college supports
them and wishes them the best.

University of Utah
Recognizes
SVS
SALT LAKE CITY , (I.P. )—Reco gnition by the University of Utah
Student .Affairs Committee of a local Students for A Democratic Society chapter recently brought mixed reacti ons on t his campus.
Following the one-year recognition, there were these two developments: The Board of Regents in
a statement released here , cited an
attorney general' s opinion on the
responsibility of the University to
enforce regulations and maintain
order.
The local chapter of the Ameri, can Association of University Professors invited two SDS leaders
and Dean of Students Virginia P.
Frobes to speak on "Student Power. "
The regents made it clear that
the University could not legally delay "recognition " to the local SDS
chapter because of the actions of
chapters elsewhere , un less tKere
was "a clear and present danger "
to order.
The University faces the necessity, said Dean Frobes , of differentiating between the various voices
of student power on the campus—
"which are the voices of revolution, of reasonable disconte nt or
simply the voices of torment. "
James L. Bever , president ofr the
newly-formed SDS chapter , and
Jeannette Brown , another SDS
leader , spoke to the Universit y professcfs on behalf of the New Left
Movement.
"What' s happening on the campus today is all your fault ," Mr. Bever said. "You must assume the
blame , both as teachers and parnH «« »»
cuia.
Speaking in a soft, sonorous
voice, the bearded young man declared that the college student today is raised in. a society steeped
in Judeo-Christian ethics and the
patriotic ideals of freedom and
d emocracy. "But when he gets out
into the world and sees all the social injustice , he realizes that
things are not quite what they
were put up to be."
Mr. Bever said the student today is a moralist whose traditional
religious beliefs have been shaken ,

but the moral ity that goes with it
has not. "Why are we doing the
things we're doing?" he asked.
"Becaus e we want to know why
the univer sity, faculty and students aren't rebelling against all
this injusti ce . . . why the university isn't taking a bigger role in try ing to solve some of the world' s
proble ms."
Miss Brown said th e students in
the New Left do not want to assume the ult imate authority in
running the institution. "What we
want," she added , "is an equal say
in what affects our lives."
Dean Frobes predict ed the campus would have» to cope with student confronta tions in the future
but said the administ ration 's foresight in giving students a voice on
University policy-making committees had created a good climate for
cooperative
student - faculty reforms.
"All of us must be committed to
orderly change ," Dean Frobes said ,
"And the re must be cooperative action for this change. We have the
responsibility of listening to what
students say and want — not so
much how they say it. We need to
get to know them better. "
"Where ," she asked , "are the responsibilities «)f the New Left ,
Black Power and the hippie?" She
added that she does not see them
assuming responsibilities in maintainin g the universities or workin g
with compromises , delays or future-oriented reforms.
In its statements , the Board of
Regents said it shared the concern
of the administration over the acts
of SDS members on certain other
campuses , but "what we must consider now, however , is the basic
right of some students on this campus to organize themselves into an
affiliated chapter so long as they
comply with the rules and regulations of this University. "
The statement pointed out that
the Attorney General 's opinion emphasized th at the U.S. Supreme
Court—as earl y as 1937—clearl y
indicated the University "may not
prejudge individuals or organizations before they have violated Un-

iversity rules and regulations. "
"This opinion makes clear , however , that the regents and administrative may move with no hesitancy in dealin g with any Incident , activity or group which
causes disruption ," the regent s'
statement added.
The student-faculty committee
granted the national activist organization 's lc/cal chapter a one-year ,
somewhat probationary
status.
Feelings of the committee were expre ssed by Associated Students
President Steve Gunn when he declared , "We must judge this chapter on its merits and not on the
record of severa l SDS chapters
across the nation. "
University Provost Alfred C.
Emery, speaking for the administration , said that the national reputation of SDS had caused some
campus and community concern ,
but he pointed out that only six of
the more than 300 chapters across
the nation have been involved in
campus disorders.
Mr. Bever was active in the SDS
at Michigan State University before enrolling here last fall. He disagreed with the SDS leadership
there because of their sympathy
with the "Progressive Labor Movement ," which leans openly toward
the Red Chinese or "Maoi st" Communist line.
He described the University of"
Utah administration as being "enlightened" and conscious of student demands for a voice in campus and political affairs. He said it
was unlikely such an administration would create what he called
the "oppressive " situations that
triggered recent student revolts at
such institutions as Columbia , the
University of California at Berkeley, the Unive rsity of Colorado and
San Francisco State College .

The role of Afro-American studies in undergraduate education
was debated vigorously by a militant from San Francisco State College and the moderate head of the
United Negro College Fund at the
annual meeting of the Association
of American Colleges in Pittsburgh , Pa.
"A black education which is not
revolutionary in the current day
is both irrelevant and useless,"
Nathan Hare , chairman of the department of Black studies at San
Francisco State , said.
"To remain impartial in the educational arena is to 'allow the current , partiality to whiteness to fester . Black education must be based
on both ideological and pedagogical blackness. "
Hare listed 18 goals for AfroAmerican studies , ranging from
ending white supremacy to promoting a "black world view."

Such demands smacked of a
"kind of separatism that isn't going
anywhere ," Mr. Wright said. "It
will only lead to an intensification
of the kind of hatred that will help
destroy the nation and the myriad
opportunities for Negroes. "
He proposed undergraduate programs in Afro-American studies be
designed to equip Negro students
to "negotiate the system " of our industrialized society and to provide
them with "the ways and means
by which the system may be improv ed."
