the BSC budget to 82 percent,

Trying to alieviate these
factors , the college has instituted an economy move
aimed at minimizing waste.
However , as both Griffis and
Pickett related , "we can do all
the nickel and diming we want ,
but this won 't solve the
problem. If we were successful ,
we might save enough to pay for
two teaching positions that
won't be filled now if someone
leaves."
The present situation is such
that since last April when a

Reduction in Teacher Ed
suggested by Plan . Comm.
By Susan Sprague

A trend away from Teacher
Education and an emphasi s on
Libera l Arts and Business
curriculums is outlined in the
first draft of the Concept
Document released Monday by
BSC's Planning Commission.
Presently, approximately 70
per cent of each graduating
class at BSC is in teacher
education . According to Dr.
Dayton S. Pickett , Vicepresident of Academi c Affairs ,
the Commission hopes to red uce
this to under 50 percent within
the next five years.
The Concept Document ,
compiled by the newly-founded
Planning Commission , states
the Ins titutional Philoso phy, the
proposed missions and the
objectives of «*• college.
As its initial mission, the
document states : "It will
continue its development from a
single purpose institution to a
multipurpose college capable of
meeting increasingly diverse
needs represented by a student
body which will be changing
rapidl y in age and breath of
experience in the years ahead. "
It also states as part of its
mission that "It will continue to
be a significant educator of
teachers for the elementa ry and
secondar y classrooms of the
region.. .however , traditional
programs in elementar y and
secondar y education will
become more responsive to the
shifting needs of society."
"The educa tion of teachers
will move rapidl y toward a
competency-based model and
away from its present hoursorienta tion
cred its
...Noticeable gro_w t h w i ll
occur in the areas of business
administ ration. "
"It will mount , as need a r ises,
programs below the baccalaurea t e level designed to
pre pare st udents bound f or
vocational/technical employment. "
The Concept Document lists
as its long-, medium- , and shortrange objectives the following :
" D By the end of the nex t two
decades(pcademic year 1993-94)
the college will have reached a
level of 6500 FTE students , of
whom only 4000 will be full-time
res ident
students.
T he
rema inder of those studen ts will
be persons pursu ing a w ide
variet y diverse degree and
nondegree , ind ividuallytailored programs in career
reorientation ,
personal ,
,
develo pment
and
other
dissimilar activities.
" 2) By the end of the next ten
years (aca demic year 1983 -84),
there will have occurred a

The diversity of mast er 's
degree prog rams also will have
expand edfrom the present very
limited number of MA and MS
program s. The level , and
precise na t ure of this exp ansion
is not predictable at this time .
Additional resource allocation
to instruction -reiate d .research
will also have been given.

"4) By the end of the next five
year s (academic year 1978-79) ,
a major reallocation (10-15
perc ent) of institutional funds
will be seen in the mounting of a
major program in contin uing
and cooperative education . The
college anticipates that within
this same time span , barriers to
effective continuing education
presently existing at the
Commonwea lth level will be
reduced or removed.
"5) By the end of the next ten
years (academic year 1983-84),
the effects of the college
dire cted toward service to the
publi c — which , for the most
part , do not produce semester
credit-hours assignable to any
academic program — will be
substantially increased. The
precise level of support
required for these efforts is
indeterminable at this time.
"6) While , by the end of the
next five years (academic year
1978-79) the visibility of the
college's cultural programs and
efforts will be increased ,
resource allocation in those
characteristicall y
areas
identified as "cultural" will not
substantially be alte red.
"7) By the end of the 1974-75
academic year changes in the
types
of
quantity
and
programmatic efforts made for
students will be seen. This
degree of chan ge may be seen
by the identification of new and
developing pro grams in the
1974-75 budget request of the .
institution. Further change , to
the extent of an additional
significant portion of the 197879 bud get , will be made during
the next five years .
"8) By the end of the next ten
years (academic yea r 1983-84) ,
the number of baccalaurea te
gra duates in busi ness w ill have
risen from the present 145 to a
total of 200 annually. Several
associate-degree and other twoyear programs in this area will
have been begun by t hat ti me
ais o.

years (acadmeic yea r 19,78-79) ,
t he comm i tment of t he college
to need-related vocational and
technical educat i onal pro grams
w i ll be seen. Some of t hese
programs

business , and some will occur in

areas related to the deliver y of
health

education , and other serv iceoriented functions . The precise

I Bits and Pieces I
By Bob Oliver

The money squeeze. Your
buck doesn't last until the end of
the week.
You are not the only one with
such problems, all 14 stateowned, colleges and university
are in the midst of a percentagewise budget cut from which
relief is not in sight.
Funds for the Academic
portions of the College Community for Auxiliary projects
'which previously came from the
state are just not available in
the budget. These funds in the
past were used for educational
field trips, movies, reading
rooms, you name it—and now
the college community is
beginning to feel the effectsot
the squeeze.
Most of us have seen the increase in class sizes, caused by
less teachers. Many courses
have been deleted. The library 's
budget
dropped from $250,000 to
.
$50,000 and is almost spent.
Odds are all of us will deeply
feel the squeeze in one way or
another before the semester is

Movie Review

over.
What's going to happen?
The students of the stateowned institutions are faced
with a further increase in
tuition — possibly this coming
semester, definitely next year.
Also, the state hasn't chipped in
as much as these institutions
need to keep pace with inflation
and higher costs.
It is a sad situation where
funds are more ava ilable in
other educational areas — from
to
schools
elementary
universities — and not there for
an integral portion of higher
learning.
There is presently a $2.6
million appropriation bill in the
Pennsylvania House which
would ease some of the statemoney
colleges
owned
political
problems. But with the
football situation we are now in,
passage might be difficult.
We have got to form a unified
effort tQ launch against our
legislator to impress them that
the money is needed. The time
is now-write.
If not, the squeeze is here to
stay.

The 400 Blow s

By Tifn Bossard
"The 400 Blows," a film by
Francois Truffaut , will be
presented by the Arts Council
on Tuesday, October 2 at 7:30
p.m. in the library Room L-35.
Admission is free.
The film concerns a teenage
Parsian boy named
Antoine, unwanted by his parents
and treated indifferently at
school. He behaves worse and
worse, giving his parents the
opportunity to send him away to
a reform school. He escapes
from the prison to a freedom
which is at best momentary and
he is left at the end baffled and
frustrated by the callousness of
a loveless world.
As a phemomenon, "The 400
Blows" occupies a unique place
in film history. Its director and
co-scenarist Francois Truffaut
was originally a critic for
"Cahiers du Cineme," a
revolutionary film magazine
which condemned the studiobound rigidity of "respectable"
French film-making. "Y our
films are stuffy, " said Truffaut
and his colleagues. "You're too
hung up on literature and words
to let your films live and
breathe."
Truffaut' s severi ty i nsulted
his cultured audience. They
liked their "art" with a capital
A and had no patience with this
young whippersnapper who
argued that film itself could be
as relevant as any body of
literature. "If you're so smart ,
why don 't y ou mak e .your own
film?" was vthe general con-

sensus.
The rest of the story is obvious. Trusfaut shot two short
films in 1957-58. One, a
documentary, no one seems to
know what happened to, but a
second , "Les Mistons ," is
already a classic. For these and
for "The 400 Blows," which
followed in 1958-59, Truffaut
took his cameras entirely out of
the studios and filmed in the
streets, in schools in Parisian
tenements. Together with JeanLuc Godard, Truffaut started a
new trend in naturalistic filmmaking that has survived to this
day.
Quite aside from the film 's
importance, it cannot be overlooked that "The 400 Blows" is
also a very real , human work.
Its
subject
matter
is
autobiographical , but that
doesn 't mean i t's in any way
sentimental or tear-jerky. True,
Antoine has the cards stacked
against him, but he still does
silly, impulsive things. He
steals, li es to almost everyone
and, w h at's w orse, gets caught.
Truffaut' s i ntenti ons are not
social, nor are they th eoretical
in terms of cinema. His goals
are personal, to document the
situation of a human being in a '
world that simply doesn't care.
One of th e best moments is
w hen Antoine's school chum
comes to visi t hi m in the
reformatory. The friend , the
one person to wh om Antoine is
close, is denied entrance to the
pr ison. We see the disappointed

Varied expressions mark the faces of students as they pass through the lines at Scranton Commons.

Peanu ts Smocks
At th e Commons
By Valery O'Connell

Peanuts characters have
been seen scooting all over
Scranton Commons lately —
checking meal tickets, dishing
out food and cleaning off the
tables. The new uniforms are an
improvement over last year's
blue and gold smocks worn by
the student employees and they
lend a more cheerful attitude to
the college cafeteria.
A change in costume is not the
only innovation at the Commons
this year. ARA Slater, the
college's dining service, circulated a newsletter concerning
their policies and asking for
cooperation from all those,
eating in the dining hall. The
staff , consisting of Mr. Francis
O'Brien, Mr. John Boyle, Mrs.
Barbara Shaffer and Mr.
William Thorne. explained that
"the food industry — from the
farmer right down to the consumer" is in a drastic state at
this time. Families all across
this country can certainly
testify to this statement as they
feel the pinch of Phase Four.
However, students, because
they pay a basic fee at the
beginning of each semester for
food, usually do not realize this
dramatic state of the economy.
Most off-campus students do not
forget for they buy groceries
from week to week and not —
ice the inflationary prices. The
di ni ng sta ff urges each student
to conserve on the amount of
food he takes on his tray.
"Waste control" will eliminate
th row i ng awa y ca k es and
vegetables that people take only
because they are available and
their eyes are bigger than their
stomachs. Requesting a smaller
portion and refilling a milk

disposed at the end of each

Although certain items from
last year have been omitted
from this year's menu, new
dishes are added daily.
Eggplant parmagania, & meat
substitute, is one example. The

new.
No one has yet starved at BSC
and the continuing good service
of the ARA staff is welcomed by
all who eat here. Most state
colleges incorporated a hike in
their board prices to accommodate rising food prices
for the 1973-74 school year. BSC
is one exception and the dining
hall staff wishes to keep it that
way by offering as much to the
students as they possibly can.
Everyone's cooperation is
appreciated and will make their
job a little easier.

BylEkow "Eric "Yomoah
We're all involved with the
Bloomsburg Fair this week, in
one way or another, but perhaps
we need to be reminded of other
festivities held around the
world.
"Akwanbo** is the name of the
festival of the Agona tribe of
South Ghana. The name
literally means "making a
path." Some of you might have
heard of the Efutus (also of
South Ghana) whose festival
"Aboakyer" (Deer Hunting ) is
regarded by many Ghanaians
as weird.
"How , weird ?",you may ask.
Well, on the dawn of the festival
day, two groups, called Asafos,
are dispatched into the forest.
Every inhabitant of the townWinneba — must belong to one
group. The first group to catch
deer brings it home. There's the
general belief among the Efutus
that if AsaFo No. 1 (called
DENTSIFO) brings a live deer
to the town first , then there will
be abundance of food but
scarcity of fish but if Asafo No. 2
(DWAAFO) comes first , then
there'll be more fish and no
crops.
Like the Trojans, the Efutus
have a big wooden horse drawn
on iron wheels and after
besmearing the blood of the
deer on the tombs of the dead
kings and the shrines of the gods
the leader of the winning side
sits on the horse and he's
paraded through the town amid
singing and dancing.
On the other hand, that of the
Agonas is a kind of thanksgiving
to the gods of the tribe for
preserving their lives and for
having given them a good
harvest _-o£ cocoa-(Ghana is the
^
producer of
world's largest
cocoa).
Normally on this day, men
and boys, some as young as six,
wake up at about 3 a.m. and
follow the senior drummers to
the shrines of the gods. Wine is
poured by the chief and sheep

Foot ball Preview
By Bill Sipler

The Gridders of BSC travel to

Mansfield this week to take on
what could turn out to be the
biggest opponent , sizewise . that

they will face all year. This
game could well be the crucial
test for the Huskies , who are

undefeated so far this year .
Offensively the Huskies have
to run against an experienced
Mansfield State defense. The
line avera ges in at 6'2" and 245
pounds. In back of this Mans field sp orts two fine linebackers
in Jerr y Tearny and John
Plunkett , who operate effectivel y behind tha t massive
front four .

The Huskies will ha ve to
contain Mansfield ' s running

strong and quick

giving the

Mounties the blocking needed to
maintain an outside game.
The Huskies

so far

have

looked fairl y steady in their

firs t two wins . Last week the

rain held down the offense but
the defense looked shar p. This
week Al Ream will be ' a doubtful

starter due to an ankle injury.
The game will depend on

whether or not the Huskies can
stop the powerful Mansfield
running game and can contain
Mansfield 's speed . When me

Huskies have the ball they will
have to run at the front line of
Mansfield . The game will be
determined by the offense . If
the Huskie s are quick enough to
run agains t Mansfield , the y will
have a prett y good shot at it all .

now trying a crystal ball in

hopes of improving my own

record.

following deals with how a male

1. Don't over emphasize that
you are a male and therefore
superior.
2. Don't talk about football.
3. Briefly mention that her
eyes have a hypnotic quality.
4. Open all doors and allow
her to enter first.
5. Tell her that she is your
first date.
6. Tell her that she is intelligent , sensitive and cap- .
