New Spring Registr ation

By Karen Stork
A new proposed registration
procedure to be implemented in
Semester II, 1974-75 was announced earlier this week by
D.S. Pickett of the Academic
Registration Committee. The
objective of the new procedure
,is to provide maximum choice
and minimum hassle for
students during the course
selection process.
Seniors Get Preference
• The major change, as far as
students are concerned, is to be
course selection by section . The
chances of •getting exactly what
you want will be largely influenced by your accumulated
credit hours tempered by the
availability of resources, instructors and classroom seats
available.
On March 13, 1974 at 7:00 p:m.
in the Carver Auditorium, the
committee will be available to
discuss
the
proposed
procedures and all students and
faculty are encouraged to attend and submit suggestions.
Registration Plan
The proposed registration
plan is explained as follows :
(1) At approximately the
middle of a term, students will
receive the expan ded course
selection booklet and Course
Selection
Form.
Course
requests, including section, will
be indicated on the Course
Selection Form similar to what
is done today and provision will
be made to indicate two
alternates.
(2) All students will schedule

on the basis of the earned credit
hours. The program will attempt to fill course requests for
an individual student in the
order in which they were shown
oo the course selection sheet. If
the request cannot be filled
because a section has been
closed or a conflict has been
detected, the program will look
for other open sections of the
same course that do not produce
a conflict in the student's
schedule. Finding this impossible, the program will attempt to schedule an alternate,
if one is requested, as a
replacement for that course.
(3) Each student will then
receive a "Pre-Schedule" thatindicates courses requested ,
courses scheduled and courses
not scheduled along with appropriate descriptive remarks.
Mini Schedule Changes
(4) Before the end of the '
semester , a "Mini scneauie
Chan ge' period will be held
during which students have the
option of changing their
schedule for the following
semester or correcting errors
as shown on their partial
schedule. Th is ma y occur over a
two week period during which
time students wishing to make a
change will go to a designated
place and request the chan ge.
The req uest f or change will be
processed immediately and th e
st uden t w ill know t he outcome
of his request. Students who
make changes will then receive
a revised copy of their schedule

ROTC Program
A cross-enrollmen t program

those recei ved by Bucknell' s
ROTC students. These include
eligibility for the three, two or
one year ROTC scholarshi ps
and a monthly st ipend of $100

has been establ ished i n

Universit y. The program

is

limited in scope to the Military

( ROTC ) of
Bucknell University, accordin g
to Dr. Dayton S. Pickett , Vice
President for Academic Affairs
at BSC.
Partici pation by BSC students
in ROTC is voluntary and on an
individual basis, and does not
commit BSC to the establi shment of an ROTC unit on its
cam pus . Such participation

for those who are enrolled in the

Science Program

Advanced ROTC course.
BSC - will provide suitable
i nforma t ion to p ros p ective
ROTC students for their use in
deciding whether to participate.

No tuition compens ation will
. be exchanged between the two
, school s in this instance.
Academic credit for student
participation will be awarded as
deemed appro pri ate by BSC,
such courses to be judged on the
same standards as BSC applies
to its other courses. Students

Editorial

The known world comes to a halting, staggering, gasping stop as
it feels the slow paralysis of the cutoff of its lifeblood: gasoline. In
the bosom of the Susquehanna Valley, untouched by the world' s
' torment , the residents of BSC continue on in their blissful plentitude , with no problems greater than contemplating upcoming
midterm examinations , and being forced to tolerate the yearly
ritual of Pledging.
Fra ternities are old institutio ns at BSC ; it has been many years
since the first ball was bounced for the first fraternal Basket ball
Mara thon , and even longer since the first rubber duc k graced the
*• pathw ays of this institution of higher learning, pulled by the first
humble pledge. But the inherent idea of fratern ities has remained
the same : Brotherhood. The question of what rubber ducks ,
basketballs , wooden paddles and humble pledges running to perform others ' biddings have to do with brotherhood remains as yet
unrevealed — except , perhaps , to the members of those bodies. If
so, it must be a well-kept secret .
The idea behind beating, bera ting, humiliating and otherwise
torturing the humble "pledge ," is simple enough to understand in a
fra ternal organization . Obviously, it is a sign of "manliness " to
persecute someone younger than you whose only wish is to become
your friend , or "brother ." But in Sororities the feminine counterpart of the "frats ," it is more difficult to understand. There is
nothing feminine about ordering your "little sister " to wash dishes,
run errands , wear strange clothes , and perform odd rituals , such as
reciting the Greek alphabet while holding a burning match ,
prefera bly before the match burns your fingers. Nor can one find
anything "sisterly " in any of these acts. Perhaps the reasons lie
deep in the subconscious of the sister ; in trying to imitate their
male counterparts , they are showing signs of the "penis envy"
which Dr. Bashore described so vividly in Psych 101.
The rituals of pledging are many . To name them here would
consume the remainder of the page. Oddest amon g these , I think , is
the construction of small pillows by female pledges., for some
unknown purpose. These pillows come in various shapes, including
birds , flowers , triangles , squares , circle §, etc., and are carried
everywhere during the six-week pledge period. The male

" T heme f rom the M ovie

that is quite spontaneous and

Gregg Smith organized the
Singers in 1955. It did not take
long for the precision and
vitality he drew from his people
to be noticed. In 1959 an impress ed Igor Strovinsk y invited
them to perform and record
with him as he conducted his
own pieces. The association
grew into a long series of
collaborations.
The group has made four
European tours drawing praise
from every quarter . They have
bounced from coast to coast on
tour in this country for ten years
and the critical acclaim ac-

corded them has been in the
extreme.
The Greg g Smith Singers
have been the recipient of three
Grammy Awards for recorded
music. They are unquestionably
the most recorded professional
chorus in the world with wide
range in repertoire from
Renaissance to contemporar y
music.
Their performance at Bloom
on Wednesday, February 27 will
begin at 8:40 p.m. Please note
the later-than-usual curtain
time. This was planned for the
convenience of Ash Wednesday
worshippers. All from the
college community are invited
to this promising performance.

The Fate of a Pet
Named Schmedle y

By Valery O'Connell
A strang e new addition to the
BSC campus was due to arrive
on Sunday, Febru ary 10, in
Bloomsburg. Eagerly awaited
by Er ic Yamo ah an d his
brother s of Lam bda Chi Alpha ,
Schmedley, Eric 's pet gorilla ,
was detained fro m coming that
day. Detained may not be the
word . Actually, Eric was ordered via correspo ndence from
the Mothers of Bloomsburg, not
to br ing his "dang erous
animal" to town .
Schmedley , a gi ft from the
folks back home , is far from
dangero us. Only two years old,
he stan ds a little under five feet
tall and is very domesticate d,
eating with utensil s right at the
tabl e. He even sleeps in a bed,
laces his master 's shoes, and
loves fruit and red hot chili.
Why, the men of Lamb da Chi
were planning to dr ess him up
in a BSC T-shirt and gym shorts
and bring him to a wrestling
match — pr obably borrowing a
brother 's ID card who went
home for the. weekend .
After receiving these letters
objecting to Eric 's request to
the Mayor of Bloomsburg,
disappointment was apparent
in all he did last week. He
thought he was being treated
unfairly and again protested to

townspeople on the Speakup

are urged to call 784-3388 from

witn no memory of what has
happened to her .
Blatty based "The Exorcist"
on an actual exorcism , which
occurred in 1949. A . 14 year-old
boy from Mount Rainier , Md M
was plagued for months by
poltergei st phenomena. Without
apparent cause the boy's bed
would suddenly move about ,
while pictures and chairs would
be thrown against the wall.
Accordin g to Newsweek
magazine , after admission to
. the Georgetown University
Hospital , he began to curse in
ancien t languages and at one
point , while strapped helplessly
in his bed, long red scratches
appeared on his body.
Unable to find a cause for his
affliction , the boy was taken to
St. Louis for an exorcism. For
two month s the Jesuit assigned
to the case submitted himself to
a "black fast" of bread and
water to prepare his body and
soul for the ordeal.
The exorcist worked on the
boy for more than two month s,
using the exorcism ceremony
more than twenty times. In the
end after a typical bout of
writhing
and bursts
of
blasphemy, the possessing
spirit identified himself as one
of the fallen angels mentioned
in the Bible and thereupon
departed.

At the top of the hill just to the

nestled between the residential

Except for Chris tmastime , in
which Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts,

group who can learn the words
of. "O Little Town of

the Nursing Home patient' s

One of the few universal
homework assignments that
Amer ican teac h ers give at t he
beginning of the school year is a
sh ort essa y on h ow the stu dents
spent their summer vacation .
This is uaually an overnight
project with the students
reading their work aloud in
class the following day. A
nat iona l commi ttee selects eac h
year some of the better essays.
Here is a sample of the comm i ttee 's select i on:
1. My summer was great. I
went to summer camp for eight
weeks and got poison ivy. Later
I got whooping cough and had to
leave the camp. At home I
broke my leg running after our
dog and had a cast on for five
weeks. I still limp a little bit.
T wo weeks b ef ore school
started I got a black eye when
the car door, handle hit me
square in the face. My fingers
were also severely swollen
when my hand was caught in a
slammed door. You may
wonder why in the first sentence
I said my summer was great.
The reason is because my
father is a doctor and I was the
only patient he has had in the
lost six months. It was good
practice for him but I now owe
Dad dsyuo.
2. Oh gosh. My summer .was

while visiting my aunt' s home
in California. His name was

walks and saw sweet and lov ing
things to each other. We really
loved each other . I got a post
card from him Tuesda y. He said
he is getting marr ied in two
weeks and that he st ill loves me.
Gee, love is swell.

almost died . The vacation went

4. My vacation is just

school after today. v Won 't Mr.
Petroskie be surprised.
5. Three weeks of my summer
was spoiled for I was accidentally buried in a grave. It
took me the rest of the summer
to recuperate. The one good
thing is that I lost my fear of
being in enclosed spaces. As a
matter of fact I developed a love
for it and occasionally lock
myself in our closet at home.
This irritates my parents.
6. My summer was spent in a
frenzy of anticipation . After

school left out I read in a

the stars w it h my telescope in

an intense fear of mi ssing th is

August came and the day was

could no longer take the strain .
Every day was filled with
anguish and torment as the
thought that I might have

when the last day came to .see

drove me wild. I ran to the

had not. The viewing period was

magazine I noticed the date; it
was May 26, 1054.

Burkh olde r out for season .

Huski es dump Wa rri ors , 25- 18

The grapplers of BSC closed
out an extremely strong season
with a winning effort over East
Stroudsburg Monday night. The
25-18 triumph was dimmed
considerably-, however , as
Danny Burkholder, wrestling at
167, was lost for the rest of the
'74 competition with a shoulder
separation .
Burkholder , one of the
premier wrestlers for Husky
Coach Roger Sanders, suffered
his injury as he braced himself
against an attempt by Bob
Stetler to take him to the mat.
Burkholder ends the season
with a 17-2 record after his
default.
Coach Sanders will be hard
pressed to replace Burkholder
at the state championships that
take place this weekend and at
nationals that begin in early
March.
Comeback Effort
Stetler 's default victory gave
the warriors an 18-12 lead at the
time but BSC slammed the door
shut and won the remaining
three bouts.
Ron Sheehan , 177, who
wrestled a good match, according to Sanders, outclassed
Mike Stambaugh, 6-2 and John
Hohmann, 190, iced the win (2118 lead at the time) for the
locals by pinning Fred Swanson
in 6:46 after building up an 8-2
lead. Sanders said Hohmann
came on strong after battling
illness the past two weeks.
Floyd "Shorty" Hitchcock put
the final points on the
Scoreboard with a superior 17-3
decision over Don Lehman.

Quick Start
. Tom Fink , 118 and Lon
Edmonds, 126, gave the Huskies
a quick 9-0 lead. Fink flattened
Bill Coover in 1:43 of the initial
bout of the night and Edmonds
notched his second straight
shutout — this time, 6-0, oven
Keith Lichty.
East Stroudsburg battled
back to regain the lead as Gary
Kessel, 134 , upset Randy Watts,
8-7, at the buzzer of their match.
In the top battle of the night,
Kessel took a 1-0 lead in the
second period by scoring an
escape and both wrestlers
picked up the pace in the final
three minute stanza.
Watts recorded a reversal
and two-point predicament but
Kessel countered with the same
scoring combination of his own.
Watts, with one point riding
time to his credit, reversed his
opponent again but Kessel
escaped as time ran out and
registered a takedown as the
buzzer sounded to end the clash.
Lose Lead
Senior Ernie Yates , 142,
wrestled his first bout of the
year for BSC but dropped a 5-2
verdict of Phil Conlin.
Unbeaten Bill Luckenbaiigh,
150, gave the lead to the
Warriors for the first time, after
being startled on a takedown by
BSC frosh Chick Carter.
Luckenbaugh decked Carter in
3:30 after regaining his composure and taking a 5-2 lead.
Matt Tydor, 158, everted the
team count at 12-12 by nipping
Dan Travisano, 3-2, before
Stetter notched his victory over
Burkholder.

Cagers now 5-0 desp ite handica p

Hus kies Ed g e Li ttl e Giants , 39-35

By Kim McNally
The women Huskies are still
undefeated on the court and
hoid a 5-0 record after taking
down the Little' Giants of
Keystone Junior College
Monday night with a 39-35
decision.
The cagers were hampered
by the ineligibility of upperclassmen Linda Shepherd ,
Nancy Barna and Patti Lyons to
play in the game against a
junior * college team which
features only freshmen and
sophomores.
"When four-fifths of the
starting line-up can't play,"
commented BSC coach Joanne
McComb, "the timing of the
offense and the coverage of the
defense are going to be off."
Starting for Bloomsburg at
Keystone's Brooks Gymnasium
were lead scorers Ellen French ,
a freshmanvand sophomores
Barb Donchez and Judy
Kovacs. Backing them up were
experienced varsity players
Karen Tamelenus and Sandy
D'Ambrosio, both freshmen.
Huskies Press Giants
The Huskies' offensive press
was BSC's "Giant-killer "
during first half action , as
Bloomsburg held Keystone
down with a five point lead
throughout the beginning of the
game.
It was in this half that lead
scorer Ellen French helped the
team rack up the majority of
their points for the game, as she
put four field goals through and
a foul shot for nine clicks of the
Scoreboard. Freshman Cathy.
Constable put three through and
a free throw in for seven points
in the first half and further
helped establish the Husky lead.
Second half action saw
Keystone's score rise, as they
put the heat on a heavily fouled
Bloomsburg team. French ,
Donchez and Tamalenus each
carried a three-foul burden in

the second half and so had to be
saved for last period play.
"We had a bit of foul trouble,"
mentioned Coach McComb,
"but the playing team combined to hold onto the lead until
it was safe to play the starting
three who carried the fouls."
The Huskies were playing
under a variety of disadvantages Monday evening,
besides the fact that upperelassmen couldn 't he
played.
"We came off a very full
schedule; four games in eight
days, and Keystone has a
'difficult' floor to play on," said
the coach. "But what really won
this game for us was our freethrow ability."
Fo u ls Sho t for
54 per cent Accuracy
This last fact was certainly
evident, as the Huskies shot
thirteen foul shots and put seven
through , for a 54 per cent
statistic. Keystone, on the other
hand, "paraded to the charity
line," as Coach McComb put it,
twenty four times and put the
same number through as the
BSC squad , proving only 29 per
cent.
Making four of these free
throws was French, three oi
them completed in the last half
when points were needed as the
scores drew close. Tri-captain
Barb Donchez made three of
her four baskets in the last half
and put three foul shots in as

well.
Tamelenus made the last of her
four field goals in the last
minutes of the match, thus
assuring the BSC lead.
Coach McComb, although
know for shouting "Holy
Bananas" and clutching her red
towel, announced she was
"really pleased with the game;
even though there was a lot
against us, the team pulled

PSCAC
^^

By Dale Myers
The BSC men's swim team
will be competing in the 15th
annual PSCAC swimming
championship to be held at
Edinboro State College near
Erie today, tonight and
tomorrow.
Coach Eli McLaughlin will
take thirteen swimmers and
two divers, on whom he is very
high , to compete in the
championships. Today the
preliminaries in eight of the
seventeen events will be held
with the finals of those eight
events at 7:00 this evening.
Tomorrow the remaining nine
events will take place and the
finals in those nine will be at
2:00 tomorrow afternoon. In
order to qualify for the finals,
swimmers must place in the top
six in the qualifying heats.
The Huskies, who finished
third in last year 's sta te meet ,
will open today with Ed Ortals ,
Rich Kozicki and Bill Ewell in
the 1000 yd. Freestyle. Rich
Kozicki is seeded second in this
- event b ehi nd E d F ox of Clarion.
N ext will be the one meter
d i vi ng in which Husk ie ace Er ic
Cure t on and f reshman Rick
Walter will compete .
Bill Ewell will return alon g

_
...
with mate George King to
compete in the 200 yd. Butterfly.
Ewell is seeded first in this
event. In the 50 yd. Freestyle,
Coach McLaughlin reports ,
"We anticipate doing quite well
in this event," and well the
Huskies should do as they are
blessed with a number of fine
sprint swimmers.
Speedster Stu Marvin , who
has already qualified for the
NCAA
College
Division
Championship in this event, will
team up with Dave Slade, and .
will hopefully gain a few points
here. Marvin and Slade are
seeded one-two in this event.
Jim Campbell, Paul Richards
and Tim Poko could also see
action in the 50 Free.
The next event , the 200
backstroke, is a blank spot on
Coach McLaughlin 's record. H e
may possibly send Jim Campbell in this event. In the 200 yd.
Freestyle again the name of
Rich Kozicki stands out as he is
seeded fi rs t f or t his event . J ohn
Appleton may also qualify for
the 200 Fr ee. In the 200 Breast
Doug .Thran , St eve Packer and
Woody Jones will compete.
Coach McLaughlin feels Thran
will do well in this event and has

high hopes for Packer and
Jones. He describes them as
having "competitive style" and
"the will to win." In the 400 yd.
Freestyle Relay, the Huskies
have a championship to retain.
Last year's team won the 400,
however only one member of
that team will compete this
year. Veteran Rich Kozicki will
be joined by Stu Marvin, Tim
Sopko and either Dave Slade or
Steve Packer. McLaughlin
thinks his boys have a good
opportunity to defend this
championship as they are also
striving to qualify for nationals
in this event.
Tomorrow morning will be a
busy day as the swimmers will
get up at 7:00 and begin
qualifying heats at 10:00. Nine
events will be squeezed into four
hours as the finals will be held
at 2:00.
In the 100 yd. Butterfly,
poss i ble entr i es are Bill Ewell ,
George King and Ed Ortals. In
the 100 Freestyle ., Stu Marvin
again will be seeded one with .

at any time with the consent of
both parties. In the event of
termination of the agreement,
the students enrolled will be
permitted to complete the

The use of phoney credit cards, electronfc devices or any other means to avoid
paying for phone calls is against the law. It's stealing—pure and simple.
In this state, conviction for making fraudulent phone calls may result in:

¦
A fine of up to $18,000
¦
Up to seven years In Jail
¦
Restitution for the total cost of the fraud

¦
Court costs

¦
A permanent criminal record
One more thing: modern electronic computer systems are being used to track down
offenders. .
The penalties may seem harsh. But the cold fact remains that the law does not look
on phone fraud.as a lark,

Petition deadline extended
Petitions were available at
the Information desk for C.G.A.
officers, Class officers and the
Student Faculty Senate. Unfortunately , many offices may
not be filled because of lack of
student interest; and only six
petitions were returned for
Student-Faculty Senate (there
are 23 positions open for
students). Is this another case
of student apathy?
All of these positions were
open to us, students, because
the Administration is interested
in OUR point of view. How
many colleges have only
Faculty Senates? How many
college calendars are decided

equivalent of this is the paddle,
and it seems that if a pledge is

caught without his
pillow or
paddle, he is much to be pitied
when his brothers-sisters get
their hands on him. Apparently
the privilege of human error is
denied these poor people.

by only Administration and
Faculty? How many colleges
give students a say in how their
money is going to be spent?
Luckily for you, Bloomsburg
gives students a chance to voice
their opinions through the
Senate, asks them what type of
calendar the students want, and
gives them a say in who the next
President
or
Assistant
President of the college will be.
It is obvious that you don 't
really care , so next year, when
things don 't go to your liking,
blame yourself. YOU had your
chance and you blew it.
Because of all of the vacancies that still exist, the deadline
for petitions will be extended
until February 28th. None of
these offices require a great
deal of knowledge about college
policy — the only requirement
is that you have to give a damn
and want to get involved.

"Haj i"

What may be the truth in JFK's death?

For the remainder of the sixweek period one can find, on
any given evening, a group of
humble pledges "serenading "
their beloved future sisters with
the most ungodly brand of
caterwaulingf that can be.
imagined. The songs which they
sing profess undying love for
sister , sorority, college and
country, which is rather difficult to believe since there's
nothing lovable about someone
who makes you run errands or
hold burning matches.
There is a great deal more to
be said, but not enough space in
which to say it, but the idea is
clear: while the wqrld struggles
with progress and problems, the
majority of BSC's contribution
to the next generation remains
blissfully unaware, concerned
. only with pledging, pillows and
paddles. If there is any good in
these archaic gatherings, th ese
brothers and sisters should
make it known ; I have been at
BSC for nearly four years and
have seen none.
