Community Programs
By Karen Stork
The Office of Continuing

Education has announced the

installment of two newly approved college level programs
at BSC . Acting Director
Richard O. Wolfe said th«
programs are designed to
provide the community an
opportunity for self develop-

ment through attending classes
at nominal fees.

The first program is a noncredit mini course program ,
including such wide variety of
subjects as Political Science ,
Income Taxes and the Metric
System .
The program extends over a
three months period , beginning
in March , and allows individuals to pursue knowledge
for their own enri chment ,
stimulation or pro fessional
advancement. Lasting th ree to
five weeks , a nominal fee of
$2.50 per hour of instruction has

been established for courses

usually not exceeding twenty
hours ;
Formal admission to the
college is not requir ed and the
scheduling of courses is not
based upon the college calendar , nor is it required that the
location be on main campus.

An Attendance Fee prog ram
has also been implemented at

BSC , where community citizens

Conce rt Review

Madriga ls Wor k Together
In Harmonic Contentment

By Scott Zahm
The Madrigal Singers took an
audience
back
to
the
Renaissance on Valentine 's
Day. Offering old, old love
poems in a
charming
polysymphonic acapella with
elegance of delivery, they set a
fanciful mood. Augmented in
some numbers
by accompaniment on violin, cello,
guitar , harpsichord , flute ,
piano and percussion by
members of the BSC band and
orchestra , the Madrigals
emulat ed t he rus ti c refinement
of the age. The Madrigals seem
to be at their best , however , in
, fully
choral
acapella
arrangements. Their control of
harmony and counterpoint
without
support
ot accompanyment is very fine.
From the Renaissance they
moved into some folk-like
com pos i t ion i nclud i ng "Harves ter 's Song " by Jean Berger
and "T hree Ci rcles " by Alice
P arker . These works are based
on folk tunes and deal in the
cycle of life. " And thus we pass
the year so long, and never be
we mu t e. " (Berger ) "The moon
alwa ys follows t he sun " (Congo
folk poem-Pa rker ). These are
folk tunes done in arrangement.
They conve y the depth of feeling
and gut reality tha t often seems
uni que to handed-down folk art.
The impression of "this is real "

Nlcombodzi

was unmistakable and carried
:on into the next number.
"The Seven Last Days" is a
multi-media experience constructed by Edward Miller ,
( music) Donald Justice (text )
and Abobott Meade. (film) The
audio portion of the construction is written very eerily
for synthesizer , child' s voice
with effects (i.e. tape reverb ,
vibrato ), and bits of newscast
and choir . The visual portion is
a near subliminal speed
montage of action shots etched
by the artist as if shuttered on
the screen. The choir text is
glum but insistently powerful
with images developed from
such connotative phrases as
"ends, worse today, gone away,
curse the day, t he nurse is
awa y, call t he hearse , curse the
af ra i d ,
Friday 's
n urse ,
Sat urda y w ill not las t ." The
cho ir slams t he lines at t he
aud ience. Sing-song, Sing-song.
The effect is powerful as bits of
war time (67-71) newscasts and
scenes of ci vil ian war torment
sha tter on the screen . And the
feeling of "this is real ", the
remnant fr om t he prev ious folk
t unes , lingers.
The second port ion of the
program was a K urt Weill f olk
opera , "Down in the Valley. " It
included memorable performances by Michelle Seliga
and K en Garner in the lead

roles. Garner has a power ful

voice and fine control. The forte
of the Madrigal s, however, lies
in their ability to work together.
They support each other
superbl y in a full choral
arrangement. Other solo performances were handled well,
but lacked that extra spark that
grabs the heart of an audience.
Noticeabl e nervousness was
sometimes a distraction. The
equilibrium and confidence

Working persuasivel y from
all available literature concerning the assassination ,
perhaps the film 's unresolved
questions are due to the
unavailability of any reports.
The seal on all vital documents
concerning the case presented a
problem for writer Dalton
Trumbo. The disappearance of
the original autopsy reports , the
disagreement and disregard of
various material witnesses
reports , the missing frames of
the Zapruder film — have all
caused difficulties in the
production of "Executive Action. "
If in the mood for a
stimulating flick one might take
in this show as it appears in
downtown Bloomsburg this
week. The ending clincher of
eighteen w it nesses who have
mysteriously and unexplainedly
died against "odds of 100,000 to

critics have questioned the real '

Camp us Survey on Africa
Off e rs Unusual Commen ts

Sometime last semester 1
conducted a survey for an International Students ' Union
Conference — with an objective
to discover the American
college studen t' s picture of

By V a lery O'Connell
In a time of presidential
conflict and various questions
concerning our governmen t, a
movie such as "Executive
Action " certainly is not
welcomed , by top-ranking officials with something to hide.
The production 's theme of the
assassination of John F. Kennedy in November of 1964 asks
many questions and answers
few.
Director David Miller 's latest
quasi-documentar y has brou ght
back the social and political
relevance that films such as
"Easy Rider " produced in the
1960's. A refreshing change
from the love stories and
gangster escapes produced in
the last few years , this report
pres ents a live screenplay by
Dalton Trumbo taken from the
Warren Commission volumes.
"Executive Aciton " discretely
asks many of the unclarified
questions which have been kept
in the far recesses of the
American mind for the past ten
years.
Starring Burt Lancaster as a
skilled conspiracy operator
hired by rightwing moneybags
Robert Ryan and Will Geer , the
film moves quickly through the
summer of 64. Three assassin
groups are being trained in the
desert -wildernesses of the USA
to finally end the Kennedy
regime , and a look-alike tor
pat sy Lee Harvey Oswald has
been spotted and hired by the
CIA.

Re enjoys working with Mr.
McHale and feels he shows a
grea t deal of imagination when
working with students in the
theater . Re became interested
in the theater while working
with Becky Ermish , who plays

six fi eldh ous e, two team recor ds set

Buc knel l drops Trackme n , 74-4 0

By Craig Winters
The Bucknell University
track machine rolled into
Bloomsbur g last Saturda y to vie
with our Huskies . When they
departed , six Nelson Field
House records had been
eclipsed and the Huskies were
over whelmed by a count of 74-40
with several events remaining.
However , a dropped baton
during the 8-lap relay ended the
Huskies surge as they suffered
their second setback of the
year. The Huskie tra ck men
displayed considerable strength
in the sprints and field events -•
but were outclassed in the
longer distances . Coach Puhl
acknowledges this deficiency to
the superior track facilities the
Bucknell men enjoy. Actually,
Puhl was extremely pleased
with the progress his young
distance runners are making
and feels they will develop into
a sound squad. Although he
failed to place, Coach Puhl was
pleased with effort of Jeff
Brandt who set a new team
record in the 880.
The Huskies put their best
foot forward in the sprints. The
fleet-footed sprinters took the
top three slots in both the 45 yd.
dash and the 50 yd. high hurdles. In the 45 yd. dash , Ron
Miller blazed home with a time
of 4.9 seconds just nipping
teammate John Boyer , who was
clocked at 5.0 seconds. Shawn
Tice hurdled his way to victory
in the 50 yd. heights with a time
of 6.4 seconds. Tice was
followed by teammates Kim
Yaunches an d P aul Twardz ik.
The Huskies claimed the second
and third slots in the 50 yard
dash as Eric Koettoritz and
Paul Twardzik , respectively ,
followed Bucknells Bill Baldwin
to t he tape. Baldwin 's time of
5.3 seconds broke the Field
Ho use recor d . J err y Goforth of
Bucknell ou t las t ed t he Husk ies
Steve Wall who applied a strong
finishing kick , est abl ishing a
new Field House record of 51.8
.seconds in the 440.
A no t her record f ell as Dan
Nagelberg led a trio of Bucknell
runners across t he fi nish in t he
870 in 1:55.2 seconds. Bespectacled Doug Bu t ler of Bucknell
blazed t o yet ano t her record
with 4:09.5 clocking in the mile.
R ecords were also eclipsed i n
the 600 yard and the 2 mile

events with BU' s Ted Dzurinko
capturing the 600 in 1:14.1 and
BU' s Lou Calvano the 2 mile in
9:10.2. Bucknell's James Carty
• claimed first , in the shotput
event , heaving the 16 pound
sphere 45'8" . Bloomsburg 's
Terry Grabois notch ed the third
slot with a toss of 42'3V4M .
Bucknell' s Paul Sennerberg
soared to a height of 6'2" in the
high jump. Sennerberg 's effort
tied the Field House record.
A main factor of the Huskie s
defea t was the failure to win a
relay /race . By dropping the 8
lap, 12 lap and 2 mile relays , the
Huskies were placed at a
handicap th ey could not
overcome. The Bucknell runners , especially the miler s,
were pleased with the facilities
at Nelson. The milers prais ed
the fast track , the .facilities and
the clean , cool air. They
maintained that breath ing was
easier because of the fresh air
and they didn't get overheat ed
when running. Their outstanding times are evident of
the good conditions at Nelson.
However , they feel a banked
- track would make the track
superior.
Bucknell' s strength was of
little surprise to the Huskies'
staff. Coach Puhl had predicted
that Bucknell would break
several records ear lier in the
week while his squad ' was«
tuning up for the meet.
At present Puhl is in the
rebuilding pro cess. The Huskies
were weakened last year by
gradua tio n but were blessed
with a crop of promising freshmen. Puhl feels his group is the
best material to work with for
they
are
hard- working,
dedicated and academic ally
strong. The staff is reluctant to
po i n t ou t weaknesses and
strengths on such a young team ,
bu t Coach P uhl cons iders J ohn
Boyer, R on M iller an d Ron
Nealy outstanding prospects.
P uhl is also pleased w it h t he
talent and depth of his hurdlers .
Although conference competition is very rigid , P uhl f eels
the team unity, cou p led
d edi ca tio n and talen t will make
his team a winner. The Huskies
record now stands at 2-2 and
next face the University of
Delaware.

Cagers dominate

By Bill Sipler
The Huskies avenged an early
season loss t o the Red Raiders
of Shi pp ensbur g as they

dominated the second half and
came

awa y

with

a 74-49

trium p h. BSC was led b y
Ca ptain J ohn Willis , who scored
22 points for the Huskies.
Game Action
The first half was nip and tuck
all the way as the Huskies were

never able to dominate the

game offensively . Defensively,
however , the team was able to
hold off the Red Raiders ' efforts
as they thwa rted the Shippensburg five 's efforts were
aided by Wi llis arid Oary
"Toby " Tyler who added timely
blocks on the Shippensbur g
players as they attempted to
shoot from the middle. Tom
Rellly and Kenny Barlow were
two players who had their offensive efforts stopped by
Willis ' and Tyler 's five
defensive playing.
Due to some poor ball han-

dling and some costly turn overs , the Huskies - went into
t he locker room holding only a
six point lead.
Second Half
The Huskies began to pull
awa y in the second half as the y
built up a strong lead gradually
over the first par t of the second,
half. The Huskie s continued to
pull away and ended with a 25
point lead.

Swim mers dro p
West Chest er , 78-35

By Dale Myers
A highly psyched clan of BSC
mermen captured a first place
in all but two of the events to
waltz past the Rams of West
Chester by a 78-35 coun t in the
Nelson Field House Pool last
Friday night. A near capacity
crowd watched standout performanc es as R ich K ozicki , Stu
Marvin , Doug Thran and Eric
Cure t on paced t he H usk ies to
victor y .
The Husk ies spur ted ahead to
a lead wh ich the y never
rel inquished. After the 400 yd.
Medley Relay team of Jim
Campbell , Doug Thram , Bill
Ewell and Dave Slade snatched
a win. The Huskies led 7-0. Two
freshmen , Ed O r t als and Steve
Packer , grabbed first and
second place respectively in the
1000 yd. Freestyle to widen the
Husk ie lead to 15-1.
The Husk ies main ta ined the ir

slight move t o come back when
they took a first and second in
the 200 yd. Individual Medley,
mak ing the score 26-17.
However , in the one meter
diving competition , Eric
Cure t on grabbed a f irst place to
sus t a i n t he H usk i e lead.
Cureton had his work cut out for
him though , as W est Chester 's
Jim McHenry stayed close
dur ing the competition . Only
when Cureton came on w ith a
nea r perfec t one and a half
inward dive did he assure the
Huskies of a first place.
With the retur n of the

Bill Ewell and G eor ge K ing to

All in all , it was interesting to
see what your fellow students

expre ss themselves on paper.
Quality and quantity

been raised.
So if you have an inter est in

Technical Director Sato "Mounts t ire Show "

By |(aren Stork
Most of us are acquainted
with productions by the
Bloomsburg
Players
throughout past semesters. We
have . attended their performances and automatically
attributed all the show's success to the undoubtably
deserving director and cast.
However, we tend to overlook a
most vital contribution made by
the technical director and his
crew, imagine a play completely void of lighting,
costumes, scenery and props.
Nestled in the halls behind

crowded room stocked with
boards, paints, two-by-fours,
equipment and talented individuals, all involved behind
the scenes of the Bloomsburg

among the students , affectionately called Mr. S. by his
co-workers. As Technical
Director of Theatre on campus,
he is responsible for the design,
construction and painting of
scenery, stage lighting and
props. In theatre talk , the
technical director would be
known as "mounting the show."

but demanding job , Mr. Satp

addition , he instructs several
theatre courses, including scene
design , stage and lighting and
theatre production.
Originaly from Japan, Mr. "
Sato came to the United States
in 1964, a physics and
philosophy major. His interest
in dramatics as a career arose
as he began to study drama at
the University of North
Carolina. He has • written
several original plays containing Oriental themes and
plans to someday translate
American shows effectively into
Japanese.
Of the little acting he has
done, he recalls his first part in
1964 as a butler in THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING ER- '
NEST , by Oscar Wilde.
However , one night on stage he
forgot his twenty lines and had
to quickly improvise with , at
that time, very broken English.
In Japan, drama is very much
a part of their culture and
religion. Mr. Sato was involved
in high school plans but never
pursued this budding career
further. He was discontented
with the- Japanese language, as
it did not adapt well for translations. Also, the Japanese
theatre is all done in Old
Cla ssical style, which is never
subject to change. The
