Lett ers I Bits and Pieces I By Bob Oliver I "...if your group, club, organization , whatever, is making news, why not give the M&G some advance notice so we possibly can have some coverage". "We accept any help we can get from the college community". Both of the above quo tes were pleas made to our readers earlier in the year. The purpose of these statements was to provide this newspaper with stories on campus happenings from groups which may deserve coverage, but just don't get that coverage due to my miniscule staff . It should be obvious to everyone that a few individuals cannot come close to finding all the newsworthy things tha t happen on this campus. That is why we need your help. Letters ' I have nothing against the BSC band, as a matter of fact I feel they do contribute much to this institution . However, I can not agree with their claim that they are being discriminated against in their coverage in the M&G (I'm speaking only for this year). Mr. Bitler in today's letter column says that the band leads cheers, and that without them there would be no cheering at the football games. That may or may not be true, but does that mean that I have to write a story about DOC or any other frat or sorority that cheers at a sport? Let's be realistic, please. It is true that the Band spent two weeks in Spain this summer. I received a story to this effect LAST week. Why the delay, I don't know. As for Mr. Kirchner challenging my efficiency as an Editor, let me say this. It is my responsibility to oversee all that comes into the M&G. But if anyone thinks that each story is disected word by word before publication, then they must not realize how a newspaper is run. I therefore challenge anyone on this campus, from Director of Publications to band members, to come in on a worknight, and verify every bit of information. If they can, then they should be editor, not me. Let me tell you, it's impossible. I could go on and on, but it would serve no purpose. The fact is that we accept all news from the college community and try to print newsworthy items. We can't cover everything, our staff is just to small. As a final note, I wonder if anyone on campus knows that the M&G received First place honors from the Columbia University Newspaper Judges last year , and that this tradition is not about to be broken. It is our aim to provide this campus with the best coverage possible within our means. We try , but we need your help. I Nanett e Was " Pleasa nt " By Susan Sprague Standing ovations are nc longer a privilege but a right il you're staging a musical at BSC, as was proven last weekend with the Bloomsburg Players' presentation of the Broadway musical "No, No, Nanette ." The pleasant but unimpressive "Nanette " was presented in Haas Auditorium under the direction of Robert Richey, a member of the BSC Speech Department. "Nanette was enjoyaoie as a nostalgic trip into the roaring twenties, but not compa rable with musicals such as "Man of La Mancha ," and "The Roar of the Greasepaint" done in recent years on the BSC stage. Sound was a problem throughout "Nanette. " The six microphones placed strategically around the stage placed simply weren 't strategically enough. Being forced to strain to hear lyrics and dialogue is a definite deterrent to enjoyment of a show.

Maria Kozak as Sue Smith and Bob Harris as Billy Early both came across quite clearly to the audience. Harris did an outstanding job during the first act , but seemed to lose either his confience or his memor y during the succeeding acts , as he appeared to stumbl e occasionall y over lvrics. Kozak did an excellent job as Sue Smith , whether acting, singing or dancing. The excellence of her tap dancing, however , had one ne gative result. It showed the inabili ty of most of the chorus to keep in time with the music. Richey 's attempted strategy of placing the good dancers in the front for the others to watch became all too apparent with each out-oftime clump of an inexpereinced foot. Note should be made, however , that the four lead dancers certainly knew what they were doing. Character actress Gail Lynch did her expected good job as the comical maid. Pauline. The audience showed their appreciation of her brand of humor with a tremendous round ( please tur n to paqe four) Once in the morning does it Union , First Floor. Health Services Offere d To A ll BSC's new Health Program offers something different from other colleges in Pennsylvania. A six-point service program is available for all students, both off and Oil-campus. With the completion of the new Kehr Union , there is now a new College Infirmary , located on the first floor. A registered nurse is on duty from 7:30 a.m. to 11:30 p.m . and will handle minor ailments or refer you to the Bloqmsburg Hospital Dispensary. Twenty-four hour medical assistance is offered at the Hospital Dispensary. The college physician is on duty there between 7:30 a.m. and 12 noon. Due to an agreement between the college and the hospital , the basic five-dollar fee has been waived , plus the first two dollars of any necessary medication . In addition to these services, the college has a new facility on campus , the Physical Therapy Clinic , located in the Nelson P"ield House. Any member of the student body, faculty and staff will be treated at this clinic but must be referred by a The Sim pson Curse By Duane Long Robert returned home after the long ride and led his mount to the stables for feeding and bedding down.

Tho simple «fact is this: The M&G Band does not receive its deserved recognition and coverage from the paper. For • example, if it weren't for the Band (p lus the frats and sororities and cheerleaders ) there would be no cheering at the football games. This past summer the M&G Concert Band spent two weeks in Spain. Your paper did not give any coverage at all to that event (except three or four words that were written in our one inch annual column on our Spring concert). At most Kehr Center, BSC Health at the home basketball games we provide moral support for »the ( Photo by White ) team.
