INSIDE WEDNESDAY: —Who 's Who Nominations —Glimpses of Parents' Weekend From the Counseling Center Alternatives To Alcohol Are Available SUE CALABRO Voice Contributor I am aware that alcohol is part of a college student's life. That is why I am trying to instill responsible drinking in the average college student. A typical response from students concerning drinking and parties is "There's nothing else to do. " Well, I have generated some alternatives that are readily available to the college population. Last week the Bloomsburg Players performed "Ice Wolf" to several captivated audiences. If you missed it, the next performance is scheduled for Wednesday, October 3ist and is entitled "Class Menagerie. " Films are sponsored weekly, "Silkwood" is playing this week, and next week "Against All Odds" will be shown. All you need is your ID for free admission. Check your Activities Calendar for dances and Bingo nights. The dances are held in the union and music is provided by DJ's. Bingo nights are fun and can be profitable also. To play, there is a small fee for cards, but the chances of winning money are good activities for their floors. The activities are designed to promote interaction with people on your floor and with people from other dorms. Activities such as horseback riding, ice cream bashes, roller skating parties , hayrides , golf trips, pizza parties , and mixers, etc. have been offered in the past. Inter mural sports are nonthreatening athletic activities designed for everyone-you don't have to be a -superjock to participate and have fun. Amost every weekend Quest runs outdoor activities which can be personally rewarding as well as fun. The Quest program has a noalcohol policy for all of its courses. Contact the Quest office for more specific information. Needless to say, the list of alternatives is quite extensive. Basically, my main point is to "Get high on experience!" Instead of making alcohol the main reason to get together, try getting together for an activity and have alcohol enhance your good time. People who drink excessively at parties tend to attribute their good or bad time to how much they have consumed. When you become involved in experiences first, and have alcohol come second, you can take full credit for a good time. Bruce Delong Lots of enthusiasm from these two cheerleaders at Saturday's game.

As Herbert Hoover once said, "Freedom of the press...is a foundation stone of American liberty ." The Statue of Liberty stands as a beacon to guide our grea t Republic through these troubled times just as a strong, independent , and free press illuminates our country 's journey with the light of freedom 's way. Never in history have a people enjoyed the fruits of liberty as we have. Our economic, religious, and political freedom is dependent upon the open exchanage of ideas and varying opinions source of information helps guarantee of knowledgeable public without whose understanding our representative form of government would crumble into ashes. . As that great monument in New York Harbor is now being refurbished , let us rededicate ourselves to the principles of a free press and renew our commitment to support and defend it against all enemies. - ^^^ The second victims Were the Dear Editor, It's time that someone drew at- parents of a friend of mine who tention to the ticket-happy Security received a ticket while saying officers that rule over this campus. good-bye to their son.

Features Editor Rowdy. That's the most appropriate word that describes the skateboard styles of Mike Maize, freshman; and Victor Koons, sophomore, of BU. But for Maize and Koons, skateboarding is more than an amusing pastime, it's a way of life. "Skate to Live, Live to Skate." is the motto of these two students. And skate they do — providing their twelve foot high plywood ramp is dry enough , to provide traction . Maize and Koons began skateboarding together six years ago, riding in the streets on cheap plastic top boards. Skateboarding was at . its peak as a fad , and all the kids were doing it. What started out as pure fun became an obsession. When the fad broke, both skaters were still going strong. They built their fast slant ramp and began verticle riding. Skateboarding and high school had its ups and downs , remembers Koons, "Through high school we were the guys that skateboarded. We had groupies, guys that just liked to come and watch.'' Varsity sports caused a large falling out among the skateboard crew. "A lot of guys quit skateboarding to run cross country. The coach never wanted us to skateboard ," said Maize. "When the coach would send us out to run for an hour, we'd run down to Victor 's house and skateboard. Then we'd see the team coming and we'd throw our boards and go hide in the garage. We'd come back from practice with these big massive , hip burns, just barely able to walk." Eventually Koons got kicked off the team , and Maize quit . There were some benefits to the end of the skateboarding fad , remembers Maize. "After all those guys quit we got all this free stuff , because we'd borrow all this equipment and never give it back. " Their experimenting with ramp riding opened up a refreshing approach to the sport. The speed and yersitility of vertical riding appealed to Koons. broke my leg." Trouble with local police forced the relocation of the firs t ramp, explained Koons. "All these people used to come across the street from Al's Cafe and throw beer bottles and other trash in our yard . Then one day, my dad got bummed out and smashed some guys headlights that was parked in our yard . The cops got bummed and said that we couldn 't have the " ramp there Mike Maize takes to the air on his skateboard. "It's rowdy , it's aggressive," said Koons. "It's great just to get out and shred. It's a total blow away." "Vert is definitely it," agrees Maize. "Skateboarding is more than some nerdy kids riding plastictops on the sidewalk. It's a sport." The search for speed and thrills, led them to construct an eight-foot high plywood half pipe, but that was too small and not wide enough to suit their needs. "It was so skinny ; a lot of times you'd fall off the side," recalled Maize. "I went off the side and anymore ; it was illegal. "It was so lame," agreed Maize, "for years the cops would stop and spend a half-hour watching us. It was the total buddy scene. They used to ask us to bring the ramp downtown and do shows. And then they pulled this thing. " Ousted from their riding spot , they wrote to the city council to get approval for a new location, but were denied due to insurance regulations. They opted to construct a new ramp in a friend's backyard . The result is an enormous plywood half pipe, twleve feet high, sixteen feet wide, and thirty-two feet long,, that dominates Dave Dalton 's backyard. It is "The Ramp, " as Maize calls it. With the help of friends, the ramp was constructed in three weeks. It now serves as a focal point for Maize , Koons, and other enthusiasts in the area . In addition to riding their own ramp, both Maize and Koons have traveled extensively in Pennsy lvania , New Jersey, and m various skateboard parks in the area . These once popular parks, now on the wane, are still the hotbed for skateboard enthusiasts. "We really got into it when we went down to the shore and saw good guys ride. We 'd come home all inspired," said Maize , "The locals were so hot.." "It doesn't seem so out of reach anymore." Skateboarding* as a trend, is dying. Most magazines have died or gone undergound. Only big name manufacturers are still in business. Big name pro contests are all but nonexistent. The sport now belongs to the hardcore amateur. The skateboarders still active today are an underground culture, seriously involved in the sport because they love it. The pretty-boy image once associated with skateboarding is gone. Today 's boardrider has taken off the aggressive, hard core punk image. When asked what the general attitude of fellow skateboarders was to their sport, "Go skate or go home," replied Maize , "Skate or don't." This year, both Koons and Maize have " moved into the hard core category. "We've skated more this year than ever," reports Koons. "It's become the central thing. " Both are looking forward to participating in upcoming contests this year. At the last contest they attended, Maize said there was talk of a contest circuit using their ramp as one in a series of skateboard competitions. In their last competition , held Sept. 3, in Ocean City, Md., Koons and Maize skated to 2nd and 4th place respectively, besting some of the toughest competitors on the east coast. "Every trick we can think of we've been able to pull off. That 's what's rally amazing. Our hard work is starting to pay off ," said Maize. "I think we've got good possibilities for contests." What does the future hold for these four-wheeled acrobats? Koons says, "Having fun, getting rowdy." "Cruising, just cruising, " replies Maize. In Rememberance My finest hour..."Ronnie Rockets!" BLOOMSBURG - Award-winning writer, artist and educator Percival R. Roberts III , 48, died Wednesday, Oct. 3, at Bloomsburg Hospita l after suffering from cancer. Dr. Roberts was a former chairman of the BU art department, author ui &t:ven books and artist of numerous pieces of arts - most of which were acrylic paintings . Dr. Roberts, came to BU in 1968 as an associate professor and chairman of the art department. He became a full professor in 1970 and was the 1984 chairman of the Community Arts Council. "Baby" Matures When John Waite named his first band The Babys, it Was more a joke than anything else: The popular late '70s quintet was a hard-rocking power-pop band , never taken seriously because of its name. When the Babys reached puberty, Waite left to go solo, releasing the Ignition LP on Chrysalis. The label did approximately nothing for his career, and he recently switched to EMI. The latest album, No Brakes,, and the single "Missing You" finally established Waite as what he always wanted to be considered: a mainstream hard rocker. '"Missing You' was written all at once, inside three minutes," says Waite. Waite was brought up in the quiet Lakes District of Northern England and retains an almost Scottish accent . His personality is much like his music: energetic, witty, colorful. So is his wardrobe ; looking like an explosion in a fluorescent paint factory. Waite lives in New York City, but says he often longs for the quiet of the countryside. In fact, he still owns a rambling country house in England, a few hours drive from London. Yet , he doesn't mind a taste of the fast lane now and again. He is, as he puts it, "a chameleon."_ Currently on a North American tour through October with Scandal and the beautiful Patty Smyth , Waite had to put his road band together in a hurry . The bass player on No Brakes left to record with Pat Benatar, and the drummer went to play with the Gary Myrick group. So his new sidekicks include noted guitarist Earl Slick and bassist Carmine Rojas , both Bowie alumni, drummer Alan Childs and keyboardist Tommy Mandel. >- ¦ • ¦ ¦ .. • Waite is slated to appear at Bloomsburg University with Patty Symth and Scandal , Thursday, Oct. 18, 8:00 pm in Nelson Fieldhouse.

Athlete of the Week BU Field Hockey: Academics and Athletics ADRIENNE LEINWAND-JONES Voice Contributor What collegiate sport is played in the fall , on a field 100 yards long and 60 yards wide, allows no more than 11 players per team on the field at one time, and for which the team members run and lift weights as part of their training? If your answer is field hockey, you 're right. And to see the game as it should be played, the Bloomsburg University women's, field hockey team is the one to watch. Since 1981, the Husky team has won an AIAW Division III National Championship, was the NCAA Division II national runner-up, and , in 1983, defeated arch-rival Lock Haven to win the NCAA Division II National Championship. Despite the loss of some key players from last year 's squad, this year 's team boasts 13 returning players and an equal number of freshmen. Coach Jan Hutchinson is optimistic about the season ahead. 'We had outstanding recruiting two years ago, " says Hutchinson , "and last year 's freshmen made a lot of progress and played well under pressure through the national championship." The team will play an 11-game schedule this season. Included among the competition are several SSHE institutions along with Bucknell University, Wilkes College, and Ithaca College. Shippensburg, Millersville, and Kutztown should provide the strongest competition in the Pennsylvania Sta te Athletic Conference, and tough play is also expected from Bucknell and last year 's NCAA Division III runner-up, Ithaca. Fans will notice a change in the rules this year. No longer will a player be required to touch the ball inside the shooting circle (a 'semicircle extending 16 yards from the goal ) in order to score. Under the new rules, goals may be scored from anywhere on the field. "This will change some of the offensive strategies," .according to Hutchinson ," and make it a more aggressive game. It should also result -in higher scoring games, making field hockey more of a specta tor sport. " Hutchinson will be working for the second year with Assistant Coach Sharon O'Keefe. O'Keefe, in addition to her coaching responsibilities for the field hockey team , is the head' coach of the women'slacrosse team. Team members began practicing on August 19, a week before most of other students returned to campus . Three hours a day, six days a week are devoted to practice which consists of "chalk talks" or strategy sessions as well as on-the-field play. Sometimes, however, the team will substitute an afternoon of swimming or volleyball for the usual hockey drill . which, Hutchinson believes, "renews their enthusiasm for hockey. I think there is a psychological advantage to Field Hockey Streak at 17 SARAH HACKFORTH Sports Editor The BU women's field hockey team took their undefeated record on the road last Thursday afternoon. Host, IUP , were unable to contain the Huskies and lost 2-1. The Huskies came from behind to clinch their sixth straight victory of the season. IUP' s first and only goal came early in the first half. Nancy Zygarowicz scored unassisted for the Indians at 2:30. Diane Shields, the leading scorer this year with 7, drove a Linda Hershey pass in at 13:30 to tie the game 1-1. Hershey leads the team with 3 assists. BU dominated the game for the rest of the first half and into the second, but was unable to break the dead lock. At 7:40 in the second half the Huskies scored the game winning goal. Lynn Hurst scored unassisted. The goal was the sophomore's first of the season. The Huskies out shot IUP 12-5 forcing the Indian 's goalie to make 6 saves while Lori Guitson, in the goal cage for the Huskies, was forced to make just 2. BU also held the advantage in corners with 14 holding IUP to 4. The Huskies now boast a 6-0 record. They have been ranked third .in the NCAA polls this week. BU will host Bucknell tomorrow at 3:30. The Huskies have three games after tomorrow before the start of the PSAC championship. keeping them away from the game once in awhile. " Much of the team ' s success can be attributed to the cohesiveness of the players. In fact , team unity was cited by Linda Hershey, the only senior hockey player , as one of the key factors contributing to the team 's outstanding record . "You ask anybody on the team ," says Hershey. "We all try to help everybody else. We stick together and try to make it " as fun as possible. " The team members seem to genuinely enjoy each other 's^ company , and , along with their coach, can. often be found eating breakfast together or playing volleyball. For O'Keefe, however, talent and motivation are essential ingredients as well. "The athletes show a lot of self-discipline and selfmotivation ," she says. "They have to want to play and so far , they 've shown it. " . " Although Hutchinson wants her team to excel, she supports the philosophy tha t hockey is not the primary reason the players are at the university . Achievement of the player 's educational goals is paramount and is reflected in the 2.98 combined QPA of last year 's team members. For those women who may need additonal help, tutoring is available , and special study sessions are arranged. "We don't want to draw kids in and have them leave the nex t year. We want them to be with us for four years and graduate ," says Hutchinson. Hershey, who majors in Computer and I n f o r m a t i o n Systems , acknowledges the fact that balancing school work and sports is difficult at times. But, says Hershey, "When you're in a sport, you have to organize your time more so you get it (studying)- done. You just have to set time aside." This year , the players and coaches have set their sights on another NCAA championship. As a further goal , they want to maintain a dominance in field hockey , and want to be in state and national touranment play as often as possible. However , when the season is over , and the seniors graduate , Hutchinson hopes they will, remember the fun they had playing the sport. "It won't be the win-loss record of 1982 tha t's remembered ," says Hutchinson. "It will be all the great road trips, the funny things that happened along the way. It's the times they had together and the fun. To me it 's fun and when it ceases to be fun , then I should leave trie sport. And they should, to." As I watched the team practice one afternoon recently, I could understand why Hutchinson , O'Keefe, and Hershey seem to beam with pride when talking about their team. Although the women are competitive and play an aggressive game, they are supportive of each other , and enjoy what they are doing. And , they represent Bloomsburg University in a way in which all of us can be proud . Huskies Down Lycoming 2-0 I —-First Victory Under Steve Goodwin-— ART CARUCCI Chris Albany 's two goal effort and a stubborn defense, guided Bloomsburg University to its first win of the season Thursday, as the Huskies defeated Lycoming College , 2-0. With the victory BU' s record now stands at 1-6-1. Thursday 's result must have served as a welcome relief for first year coach Steve Goodwin. He has attempted to rejuvenate a soccer progra m that has been on a steady decline since last year . The Huskies began reversing that trend when Albany scored his first goal off an assist from Joel Bright at 20:30 of the first half . The lead" reruuuieu precarious until Albany knocked in another one early in the second half , with ^he assist of Kurt Scholz. The game was also BU's best defensive showing of the season, as it marked the first time the Huskies have held the opposition scoreless. Despite the strong performance , the goals for and goals against ratio is still something the Huskies would file under D-as in disturbing. Support the Huskies !
