Special Olympics Fun for everyone CATHY DESKO Staff Writer Mentally retarded children are participating in the Special Olympics program at Bloomsburg University for six week this semester. The sessions started Oct. 13. Cheryl Sunshine, a sophomore majoring in Special Education is a coordinator of the program. Sunshine said that the Special Olympics are held in Centennial Gym on Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. until noon. Sunshine remarked that the children are "high functioning mentally retarded " individuals who are slow learners, and some of them need "constant one-on-one attention." The children's ages range "They 're kids first, they just happento havea handicap." from five to 18, Sunshine said. "They're kids first , they just happen to have a handicap." The Special Olympics are basically "training sessions" for the participants, Sunshine noted. The children take part in activities such as basketball , swimming, kickball, and aerobics. "It's two hours of recreation for the kids," Sunshine said. A lot of them don't get out much." Approximately 50 to 60 handicapped youngsters attend the sessions, Sunshine said. The children are.brought to the gym by their parents or by vans provided by the state. College students drive the vans and transport the children from Berwick, Danville, Millville, Nescopeck, and Bloomsburg to the college campus. Although 110 students are signed up to help with the Special Olympics on campus, Sunshine said, "We're always looking for more " Not all the volunteers go to each session, so there is usually a one-toone ratio between volunteers and children. She added that male volunteers are needed because "the kids look up to the big college guys." Sunshine said that anyone who wants to help with the Special Olympics program should simply come to one of the future sessions at 9:30 a.m . Sunshine commented that (Continued on Page 6) By ELIZABETH ANN PITTS Staff Writer Most student programs in the past decade were developed to provide help for the academically deprived, but the new Honors Program in the College of the Arts and Sciences that will start next fall aims to change that. The program, an idea of Dr. Al Forsyth, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at Bloomsburg University , is designed for the academically gifted student. It provides a structure in which the student can work independently, creatively and responsibly according to Dr. Howard Schreier , one of the organizers of the program. The program has three divisions — humanities, natural sciences and social sciences — and will include seven to nine hours of ad- vanced work. Any student wishing to participate in the program must maintain a minimum grade point average of 3.0 and have the recommendation of his or her department. The student will submit a letter of application outlining his or her purposes and plans for independent study to the Honors Committee during the fall term of the junior year. There are. three honors committees, one from each division, whose responsibilities will be to hold general information workshops for potential students, to choose the students accepted into the program, and to approve the topics chosen for the seminars ( except for the Natural Sciences). Dr. Ervine Gulley of the English department, Dr. Marjorie Clay of the philosophy department, and Stu (Continued on Page 3) MAUREEN RINKUS Staff Writer Any student living on campus this semester should plan to live there next semester . Students who signed a lease to live on campus are not going to be allowed to cancel that contract , according to Jennie Carpenter , d irector of Residence Life. She said there are many reasons for this decision. Every student who went through the housing lottery last spring signed a legal contract for one academic year. They were also given lottery instructions. These instructions stated that it is important to note that signing a Residence Hall Contract is a commitment for the entire 1984-85 academic year. Students who sign the contract will be required to honor the contract unless they are officially released by the Residence Life Office , arid should not go through the lottery unless they intend to remain on campus for both semesters. This statement was placed in the instructions so students would be aware of their commitment. Some students who sign the housing contracts do not read them or do not take them seriously, according to Carpenter. "Students don't consider the lease they sign with the university as serious as one they might sign with a landlord, and they think they can get out of it. But these contracts are legal and just as serious as any other one," she said. Also, approximately 42 students who planned to attend Bloomsburg University and live on campus did not come. This lowered the number of people living on campus. The 25 to 30 students who withdrew also decreased the number of students living on campus. The number of on-campus students leaving in January would lower the amount of off-campus housing available.

In the process of being approved by the Representative Assembly, the new policy will be more complete in its wording as to what cheating and plagiarism are and how they will be dealt with. The current policy has many ambiguous statements that need clarifying. It is unfortunate that students' conduct forced the university administration to add specific amendments to the existing policy. By the time a person has reached college level, he should be responsible and mature enough to know what cheating and plagiarism are and able to leave such petty acts behind in his high school days. The act of cheating or plagiarizing is accomplished in so few seconds , ut the ramifications of either are very far-reaching. ° Under new and old policies , punishment for cheating and plagiarism can range from a written or oral reprimand from the instructor to expulsion from the university. It is crucial for a student to ask himself if the short-term satisfaction of cheating is really worth the consequences. To jeopardize one's college career to the point of expulsion from school is hardly worth a false A on any exam or paper. The student who is patting himself on the back for getting away with his dishonest escapades , will never win any intelligence awards. These students are only hurting themselves because in the real world there is no one but themselves to rely on for "answers". If they chea t or plagiarize , they will not be prepared to be their own decision makers . College is the only place where students can exercise most absolute freedom to learn and create. By cheating or plagiarizing , a student may not realize His intellectual and creative potential because he is stiffling it by using someone else's thoughts and ideas . Acadmic dishonesty will never disappear , but we hope , with this new policy students will be more aware of how seriously cheating and plagiarizing can affect his academic career. j Courses i | NEED A ONE-CREDIT COURSE? 10.281: FRENCH GASTRONOMY: J I Lecture on food and why the French are so famous for that important ac- ' 1tivity of our life.

Switching from academe to business Campus Digest News Service With a decreasing number of jobs and the current glut of teachers in the college setting, some people are leaving—or actively considering leaving—their careers in academe for positions in the business world. A group of collegiate professors and administrators met recently in Warrenton ,- Va., with other members of the Professional and Organizational Development Network . For those who make the switch , a transition must be made. Neither side really understands the other , which often brings on defensive " stances from former teachers, said Charles Farmer , former , mathematics professor at the University of Tulsa , now senior eng ineering specialist ; at General Dynamics in . Fort Worth , Texas. A lack of. privacy and loss of individuality can also be problems associated with working in large firms. . ' !

Michael Crump, director of human resources Kline & French at S m it h Laboratories, suggests talking to ex-. tension and adjunct faculty members about career concerns, asking them about the job market; many of them have other jobs outside academe. Above all , do your homework first. Some major changes will have to be made when writing resumes and cover letters for the business world. While college search committees are interested in long, descriptive resumes detailing all educational experiences, their hiring counterparts in business want an ego-less resume, said Farmer. Hiiler added that businesses are interested primarily in ,¦ the bottom line—productivity. Crump stressed not listing educa- I tional accomplishments at the top of the resume, and a detailed list of\ publications is necessary onl y if one is applying for a research job. A concise resume, though somewhat painful to edit , is what business people are looking for; the same advice pertains to cover letters and answers to interviewing questions. If , for some reason , it . seems obvious at the interview that you 're not under consideration , ask, what you can elb to. improve your chances in the next Interview; Hiiler said.

V Honors program Wine and dine All students invited DONNA CAMPBELL Staff Writer A smorgasbord, music, and a good time are all part of the Program 's Board' s Fall Extra vangaza, which will be held on Friday, Nov. 9, at the Sheraton Inn in Danville. "Fall Extravaganza is a semiformal dinner dance, " said Jimmy Gilliland, advisor to the Program Board. He added that this event will give those people not involved in an organization that has a similar function a chance to go to a dinner, dance, and have a good time. Kenny Roberts is the coordinator of the event, which he said is open to the entire campus. The price will be $8 a person or $16 a couple. This includes a buffet dinner, which will feature a variety of meats , vegetables, breads, salads, and desserts. Roberts said, "This is a lot cheaper than a fraternity, sorority or dormitory date party. " He added that there are still spaces available for more people to sign up to attend. Anyone who is interested in this event should sign up at the Information Desk in the Union by noon on Thursday^ Nov. 8. There will be a limit of two tickets per student I.D. Transportation to the Sheraton will be provided by school.buses. Buses will pick people up in front of Elwell Hall at 5:30 p.m. They will start to return to campus from the Sheraton at 12 a.m. The buffet dinner will last from 6 p.m. ' to 8 p.m. A .Bloomsburg University student will be the featured disc jockey and will provide a variety of dance music until 1 a.m., when the event ends. There will also be a photographer who will take pictures for any interested couple or person from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. The pictures will be $6. This price includes two 5-by-7 and four wallet-size pictures. Door prizes will also be given away. Roberts believes in the theory of ahigh risk theh high return." He said that the Program Board took a chartce with this same event last spring, only is was called Spring Extravanganza. It was successful last spring ; 125 people took advantage of it. Roberts-decided that it would be a good idea to offer the event again this semester ; however, he hopes to have an even larger turnout this time compared to last time. Roberts will host the campuswide event, and plans to wear a black tuxedd'with gray pinstripes. No one else has to dress so extravagantly, semi-formal dress is fine. Roberts added, "No one needs a date to attend, just come and have a good time."

Summer Scheduling DAVID DECOTEAU Staff Writer "This summer every course offerd at BU will run regardless of how many students sign up for it," said Dr. Daniel C. Pantaleo, acting Associate Vice President of Academic Affairs. According to Dr. Pantaleo, the university was forced to revise the summer school format due to a sudden decrease in enrollment and pressure by budgeting officials in Harrisburg for less individualized instruction. Pantaleo said, "Of the 14 state universities that offer a summer program, Bloomsburg has had the greatest enrollment for the past seven years. However, last semester Bloomsburg lost 480 summer school students, that is the equivalent of loosing 161 full time students or 2,427 credit hours;" Dr. Pantaleo feels that this decrease in summer school enrollment can be attributed to the students' unwillingness tb gamble on courses that are offered during the summer, coupled with hard financial times for students. To counter the falling summer school enrollment, Dr. Pantaleo asked.. each professor submitting summer school courses to offer only the courses with greatest enrollment. According to Dr. Pantaleo this means that initially fewer classes will be offered this summer than were offered last summer; however, this summer students can sign up for classes without fear of their classes being canceled. The only classes that are not guaranteed are classes which have certain mandatory enrollment numbers in order to meet financial responsibilities. Only five to eight courses will fall into this category, all of which are either overseas or field trip courses., and they will be designated as special courses. ¦ March of Dimes ^ ' ' ' .Support the / ¦¦¦¦ BIRTH DEFECTS FOUNDATJONlHHil \3mf: Between Bus Service I BloomsburgUniversity » J Perm State, Lehighton, ? ^§p»s£ ' [ » Allentown & Bethlehem | I j Great Service and Reasonable Rates i laliS^ I "»^^^^ |"""^""fl ^^^B^C ¦¦ -^W«?? ^ ! r - ^.& ZW ,* J. ;- .

"There are a lot of major music stars with albums out now, so I think albums will be a very popular gift this year," said Musser. Woodruff , added authenticity to the play. The set, designed by Bill O'Donnell, helped people to see the unreal world that Amanda and Laura lived in, and that Tom finally escaped from. KELLI CAPPARELL Staff Writer The idea of going on sabbatical conjures up pictures of vacations and relaxation in many student's minds. The professors who are going on sabbatical during the spring or fall semester prove this common myth wrong. They are using this time as an opportunity to enhance their knowledge. Dr. Gerald Strauss, professor of English, is approved for sabbatical leave for next semester with full pay. Dr. Strauss will travel to England to do a study on John Drinkwater. . Drinkwater is an English dramatist and poet who at one time was as well known as Masfield and Kipling. Drinkwater's popularity was highest during the 1920's and 1930's. He is credited for being an actor, director, and a poet. Strauss' study will be of Drinkwater's dramas with a focus on Civil War characters . Drinkwater's most popular play was Abraham Lincoln for which he also wrote the book. Dr. Strauss will not be living in England. After his trip is completed, he will visit research libraries that carry Drinkwater's papers. Dr. Strauss's research will serve as professional development . Dr. Lawrence B. Fuller, who has a Ph.

Set during the 1930's, they play dealt with a family of three, a gentleman caller, and the problems each of them had. Laura Wingfield (Mary Yodzio) is a shy and slightly disabled girl. She lives amid the continual conflicts caused by her mother Amanda Wingfield (Gail Lynch) , a domineering, henpecking woman, and her brother Tom (Jeffrey Morgan), a young man eager to leaves his home and look for adventure. Laura , who is unable to enable to continue at business school, stays at home, listens to the old victrola , and takes care of her collections — a glass menagerie. After realizing Laura had no future in the business world, Amanda decides to find her daughter a husband. Amanda finally persuades Tom to bring a gentleman caller, Jim O'Conner ( Greg Weiss) from the warehouse home for dinner. Laura soon discovers that her gentleman caller is the man she secretly loved in high school. However, in the end, Jim helps Laura to gain selfconfidence and encourages her to be or do whatever she wants to. Hitoshi Sato, director of the play, did a wonderful job in molding the actors' and actress' very convincing performance. One could relate to Tom's yearning to be out of the house looking for adventure, or Laura 's overwhleming shyness and lack of confidence.

Pro Audio has been so busy with Christmas shoppers they did not even run their regular anniversary sale this year. November seems to always be a slow month for sales of stereo equipment and other larger items , but November and December are the busiest time for albums, tapes and accessories. Most people . . who go into Pro Audio are, people looking at how they will spend their own Christmas money rather than spending on gifts for someone else. A lot of Citizen Band radios (C.B. 's) have been sold already and they are usually one of the most wanted gift items at Pro Audio around Christmas time. Other gifts expected to be popular are clothing considered "outrageous" for Bloomsburg. New style fads seem to start around the Christmas season because many people buy them at the same time. Ocean Pacific shorts and T-shirts, which normally do not go fast in the winter months, are big sellers at Christmas time. "The most popular clothing items at Christmas are ones which people would not go out and buy everyday. People want something different, whether they are buying for them- A romantic interlude between Jim (Greg Weiss) and Laura (Mary Yodzio) COLLEEN HENDERSON Staff Writer selves of someone else," saia Musser.

While the downtown Woolworth 's said they will hot get any this year, Sears said they have only a limited supply. Woolworth^s manager explains there is such a demand for Cabbage Patch Kids, only the larger Woolworth's stores will get them. Last year, however, they did manage to get a couple dozen and sold them all the same day. \ A Sears worker said the Cabbage Patch Kids: are by far the most wanted gift item so far, but Care Bears are second. Care Bears are just easier to'come by. The Sears Christmas catalog went out in September. It includes items such as jewelry boxes and particular toys they sell only for Christmas. Orders for these items have been coming in since the catalog went out. For Sears, the spirit of Christmas started weeks ago with their red and green decorations throughout the store and Christmas trees already on display. For those students wishing to decorate their rooms or apartments, The Cat House, located in the Small Mall on Main Street, is selling handmade straw wreaths, tree ornaments and various other Christmas decora tions. An employee said they can not make straw wreaths fast enough for the demand, They are very popular items. All downtown merchants agree that Christmas is their busiest time of the year and customers started shopping weeks ago. Most stores have already started decorating, and by Thanksgiving, the Christmas spirit will be very obvious in the town of Bloomsburg. Streets will be lit up and Santa Glaus will be in his house eagerly listening to Christmas wishes. Behind the screen CHERYL WIDDICK Staff Writer The Program Board is a volunteer student organization which is made up of committees that choose the events that take place during the semester. The Board is advised by Jim Gilliland. Each semester the Board likes to have between 20 and 23 films. To obtain these films, each member of the film committee lists five films he thinks the students will be interested in viewing. Then Walt Roberts, chairman of the film committee, submits a revised list of the advisor for his approval. The maximum amount that is spent on each film is $800. The committee talks to film companies to try to get package deals which include a variety of current, foreign and classic films. Films will continue to be shown on Tuesdays and Thursday nights along with commuter films on Wednesday afternoons as has been done in the past two years. Each semester one meeting of the executive board is designed just for scheduling. The executive board knows what other events are taking place on campus such as athletic and cultural events and tries to schedule around them. Then it is up to the committee chairperson when he wants each event to take place. Once the committee can schedule dates, the planning for the rest of the semester can take place. Spring semester 1985 has many events scheduled. These include: —CollegeBowl-academic quiz competition. —Annual Dance Mara thon-first weekend in February . —Second Annual Winterfest - Feb. 7-10. —Regional ACU-I recreation tournament for Feb. 15-17. The letter includes all schools in the surrounding area . They send their finalists here with BU finalists for the regional tournament, and the winners will go on to the national tournament. —Movie madness month in April. —Siblings weekend along with the Renaissance Jamboree in late April. Gilliland stated, "If any student has any complaints, they have just as much opportunity to be on the board and to do something about it: The board is open to every student." Every student is eligible to join the Program Board and can be on more than one committee. For a chairperson or officer position, the student must fill out an application , in the spring for the following year. Interviews with the outgoing officers, chairpersons and the advisors will give insight into those they feel qualify for the new positions.

The orchestra consists of 75 to 80 volunteer members, involving both BU students and community members. The orchestra practices weekly oh Monday evenings and members from as far as Harrisburg are devoted participants in the orchestra. Master, has chosen pieces by George Gershwin, Samuel Barber, Howard Hanson, and John Philip Sousa, all of whom are American composers. Master has been with the University since 1971 and was originally hired to create the orchestra . The concert program contains works such as: Barber's "Adagio for Strings," Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue", and Sousa's "Stars and Stripes Forever." John Couch said, "Gershwin's music is a type of classic jazz , a different level of music." Gershwin's music is more for vocals such as films and plays like "Porgy and Bess". "It will be fun , it is not heavy classical music," Couch said. "The concert will have a romantic overtone, the music is notdisjointed or background music," Couch added. ' The concert will be the first concert using an acoustic shell made of metallic sections. The new, high, reflective shell will help amplify and develop the sound, making for an even more enjoyable performance. The shell was donated by Mr, and Mrs. Marco Mitrani, patrons of the orchestra and owners of the Milco Corporation in Bloomsburg. The admission is $3 but free for students and others with a Community Activities card or Patron card.

If students were allowed to break their housing, contracts, the decrease of students living on campus could result in higher room and board costs. "We had to turn away transfer students who wanted to live on campus because there wasn't enough room," Carpenter explained. About 100 transfer students could not move on campus because all the rooms were assigned to students who contracted for one academic year to live on campus. Carpenter said that almost all housing contracts ' are for one academic year. "Half-year contracts are only for seniors who know they will be student teaching for one semester and have made arrangements with the Residence Life Office beforehand," she said. "It is not that we are forcing all students to live on campus, just freshmen. We want freshmen to live on campus for adjustment purposes," Carpenter explained. "If we wanted to make students live on campus we would make the housing lottery manda tory, but the housing lottery is voluntary. When you make an obligation and sign a lease, you have to live up to it ," added Carpenter. BU students to perform LISA MACK News Editor Two Bloomsburg University students will perform tonight at 8:00 p.m. in the President's Lounge. Kris Kehr and Eddie Woods will play acoustic guitars and sing a combination of songs: original, folk, and blues. Their show will consist of two one-hour sets. Kehr and Woods have been playing guitar together since last year. Since then, they have become close friends. This relationship is apparent when they play; their music can be spontaneous. Kehr says, "We know how each other plays." For this reason , the songs they play are different each time they play them. Kehr and Woods will be playing songs by such artists as James Taylor and The Grateful Dead. The songs they play that they did not write themselves reflect the kind of life they lead. Woods writes most of the original songs they play. He is an English major, and feels this influences his songwriting ability and helps him to record his feelings. He says, "My songs tell a lot about myself.'' Kehr is an art studio major, and looks at his music as another form of art. The backdrop for their performance will be two paintings Kehr created. He placed his guitar amplifiers on their backs and put (Continued on Page 3) Mandatory Recycling ROBERT FRANCIS News Editor This past summer, the town passed an ordinance requiring all residents of the Bloomsburg area to recycle "any material of economic value." According to Jim Deterick, the bookkeeper for Volunteer Recycling Inc., the company that handle the materials, most people have been cooperating. "There have not been any fines," says Deterick. The materials that are recycled include : any "transparent or translucent container made of silica , sand,...or soda ash," thus defining most glass. Paper, defined as any newsprint distributed on a daily or weekly basis, grocery bags, and cardboard boxes. "We get a lot of pizza boxes from up there ( the university ) ," Deterick said. Also, computer printout paper, and computer tape is accepted "We take all cleanpaper," Deterick said, "We take magazines, periodicals and even junk mail." They also take steel and aluminum cans. Deterick reminds us that they cannot take paper towels, or any other used, disposible paper . They cannot take blue , black, or plate glass. The company makes very little profit, if any. When they do make a profit, the town gets 25 percent. Although they do have a staff of about six people, most of the Saturday collections are done by volunteers. "We can always use more volunteers," Deterick said. If you are interested in helping out, they are located at 901 Patterson Drive, off Old Berwick Road. They welcome any and all help. By recycling, Deterick said, "We are not only saving our natural resources, but We are helping to prevent more pollution and contamination of the Earth ." New location for Health Center HEATHER CLEAVER Staff Writer The University Student Health Center, formerly located in the KUB, is now on the third floor of the McCormick Human Services Building. The Health Center Kehr Union is open from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m., Monday through Friday and an answering service giving emergency procedures and referrals is available by dialing 389-4451—4452, after 11p.m. In the past, students were able to see physicians in the emergency room of the Bloomsburg Hospital.

Intramural Corn e r SCOTT JOHNSON Staff Writer Weightlifting has been a growing activity in the lives of many Americans. The interest in weightlifting is also becoming evident here on campus. It is not uncommon to see both the free weight and Nautilus rooms packed with students working to get thenv selves in shape. October 24 brought about the chance for more serious weightlifters to flex their muscles in a competitive way. The men's and women's Intramural Bench Press competition was held with 17 lifters competing in four different categories. Kelly Brennan headed the women's division with her first press of 70 lbs. and worked her way up to her peak of 80 lbs. The men were the next to take the floor starting with the lightweight division. Jack Rubio took first place while also being the first to lift double his weight. Rubio bench pressed 270 lbs. while he himself weighs 132 lbs. Second place was taken by Eric Yurowski with a lift of 225 lbs. Third place was taken with a lift of 185 lbs. by Mark Emsweiler. The middleweight division had the most men competing in a single division. Rick Janieri and Christopher Cara battled it out for the first with Cara relying on pure brute strength to move ahead and capture the win. Cara won the event with a lift of 360 lbs. while his body weight is 178 lbs. Janieri followed with a lift of 310 lbs. while in his body weight is 178 lbs.' Cara and Janieri also lifted twice their body weights. Rick Fisher took third place with a lift of 305 lbs. and a body weight of 169 lbs. The mens heavyweight division was the next to take the floor. Kurt Bauer won the division with a seemingly effortless lift of 350 lbs. Bauer was followed by second place winner Barry Gray who lifted 315 lbs. Third place Was captured by Gator Reid with a lift of 235 lbs. Intramural activities other than weightlifting which still have open rosters include archery, straight pool , ping-pong, racquetball doubles and badminton singles. Rosters shold be turned in to the Mens Intramural office located in room 249, Nelson Field House. - Regionals — few minutes, the game was forced into overtime.

Inside P. 7 Intramurals BU Downs Salisbury Looks to National Tourney SARAH HACKFORTH Sports Editor With Salisbury up 1-0 at the half and leading in shots on goal 8-12, the BU field hockey team looked as though they were about to lose their bid to win two seperate division titles in two years. "I just told them to play aggressive hockey, " commented head coach Jan Hutchinson. "They had allowed themselves to be intimidated by an inferior team." The Huskies took Hutchinson 's words to heart. Jus t 4 minutes into the second period , Linda Hershey converted a pass from Diane Shields to tie the game l-l. The goal came at the end of what proved to be a typical Husky drive with precision passing . It was a great improvement after a dismal first half. BU is known for its quick sharp passing game, but because of the aggressive and the pushy style of Soccer play Salisbury displayed, the Huskies were unable to penetrate past mid field throughout the first half . "Clear the ball long and spread out the offense. That's what we needed to do in the second half and that's what we did," said Hutchinson. Salisbury scored with 13:20 left in the first half. Denise Berto took a pass from Teresa Johnson to give the Blue Jays a 1-0 lead. With just 2 minutes left on the clock, it looked as though Salisbury had won the game. A quick pass had put the ball past BU goalie Lori Guitson. The Blue Jays believed they had upset one of the top seeded division III teams, but to their dismay and to the delight of the Husky fans, the goal was negated due to an offsides call. All the Husky fans breathed a sign of relief. Unable to score in the remaining Huskies Lose Final Game DEREK JENKINS Sports Writer The Bloomsburg Husky soccer team ended a long and frustrating season Saturday with a 6-1 loss to the West Chester Rams. The Huskies finished the season at 2-121. The Rams took charge of the game right away by controlling midfield where they beat the Huskies to the ball. West Chester put a lot of pressure on the Husky goal from the start. Only four minutes into the game the Rams Rick Husback sent a corner kick in front of the BU goal. Scott Runge headed the ball past goalkeeper Murk Law. Bloomsburg got a scoring opportunity when senior Ted Pecham beat a Ram defender , but goalkeeper Rick Friedel quickly gathered up the ball. BU kept up the attack. Sophomore John Gargoni had a golden opportunity to score. He unleashed a shot from 20 yards out, but it sailed over the crossbar. West Chester scored two more goals before the end of the half. Mike Rudy scored for the Rams on a miscue by a BU defender . One minute later the Rams extended their lead to 3-0 when John Lyons scored. Mike Rudy got the assist. The second half began with West Chester taking control of the game just as they had at the start of the game. Twenty-one minutesinto the second half , Lyons scored his second goal of the game, with Pat O'Malley getting the assist. The Husky hooters had a chance to score on a loose ball in front of the Ram goal after a corner kick, but a Ram defender cleared the ball. Both teams changed goalkeepers. The Rams replaced Friedel with Scott Strait. Russ Warner replaced Law for the Huskies. BU finally came up with a goal. Ron Smith put a loose ball into the net. With two minutes left in the game, Leon Sell scored for West Chester on a chip shot to the upper left corner of the goal. The Rams totally dominated the game, as they outshot the Huskies 34-7. Coach Steve Goodwin looked at the season as a learning experience. "From day one to the end of the season the guys showed improvement." Coach Goodwin plans to recruit heavily during the off season. The team will play in a number of indoor tournaments this winter, and play some games in the spring to get ready for next fall . Basketball Preview Experience: Key to Success JEFFREY W. COX Sports Editor "Our program is well respected and should maintain that respect." These are confident words from a confident coach , as well they should be. The Husky men's basketball program looks to be on its way to a fine year. Coach Charles Chronister feels that his team will be one of the "teams to beat" this year in the PSAC. He can hardly be blamed , as he has lost only one starter from last years successful team , and he has also had a very good year recruting. Some familiar names coming back to this year's squad are : Wes Wright, Shane Planutis, Jerome Brisbon, Bob McCullough , Glen Noack and Pat Flanagan. Once face that will not be returning, though, is Barry Francisco. Chronister does not appear too worried about that. "Barry is the kind of player that people will remember. Barry did a lot of things that were fun to watch," Chronister added. However, Chronister said that he is very pleased with his new players, and the Huskies should still "win as a team." One of the best products of Chronister 's recruiting is 6'6" Steve Ross. Chronister feels that Ross has had a fine preseason , and will provide some needed help with rebounding. Chronister also expects big things from the rest of his bench , especially from Pat Flanagan. Flanagan started a few games toward the end of the last season, and should be a big help. "This is as much depth as we have had in a long, long time. I feel comfortable about the top nine or ten players." Bob McCullough should also be a big asset to the Husky attack. Greg Johnston and Greg Thomas should give the guard position some added strength. Dean Colone will also be available to lend his help to the attack. That bench will be supporting a strong lineup, which will include tea m captain Wes Wright. Shane Planutis has improved since last season , and Jerome Brisbon has also made progress since his freshman year. Glenn Noack will be another returning starter, who Chronister feels will make a strong contribution to the Husky scoring attack. Les Austin looks ready to help out Brisbon in the backcourt. Chronister claims that the Huskies will be going with a more up-tempo game plan. He plans to run more man-to-man defenses and traps. Chronister states that there will be some new faces in the backcourt. He feels that the only trouble spots could be in defense and rebounding. He feels that Ross should help to increase rebouding, and that the rest of the front court is making the transition from "boys to men." A problem in the ( Continued on Page 7)
