What do a number of creative
minds, dedication, library research, ;4: 30 alarms and travel add up
to? The answer : a nationally
recognized speech team.
Bloomsburg University has such
a speech team. The team recently
returned from the 34th biennial
National Pi Kappa Delta Competition in Fayetteville, Ark., capturing 2nd on the East Coast and
18th in the nation.
Traveling 3,000 . miles by

A meeting of the Campus
Beautification Committee was held
last month to discuss the progress
Of the Campus Beautification
Project. The committee considered
all of the suggestions, many of
which were updated and, in several
cases, have been completed.
Among those completed is the
rock garden along side the Scrantori Commons. Several benches
were placed in the garden along
with crushed stone paths and
shrubbery. The planting of shrubs
around the boiler house has also
been completed. Additional flower
and shrub beds have been placed in
various locations around the campus.
Lights are being installed in
areas of inadequate lighting as
determined by the Woman 's
Coalition's Survey.
The repairs of the new
president's residence is being planned. Items (that need consideration
are roof repairs and parking also
the previous landscaping of the

residence has been completed.
The picnic area across from
Columbia Hall is still in the planning stages. There will be curbing
along the roadway for drainage
purposes, and a sidewalk placed
for convenience. There will be barbeques, benches, and flower gardens situated in the area giving it
an authentic park look. Eight light
standards, a gift from the class of
192.1j will be refurbished and placed
in the park . The CGA has approved
a $10,000 gift for this project.
A set of steps will be installed on
the upgrade between Carver Hall
and the boiler house and a nursery
is being developed , on the upper
campus. Also maintenance is starting their own plantings in the
greenhouse from cuttings.
Forty Austrian pine trees will be
planted on the upper campus , and
flowers will be placed along the
fence by the softball field on the
lower campus.

Pi Kappa Delta is a national
honorary speech fraternity that
was established in 1911 as a means
of recognizing orators and deba ters

from small colleges. The goal of the
fra ternity is to promote "the art of
persuasion, beautiful and just."
Since then, the organization has expanded. National tournaments are
held every two years and on alternating years, regional tournaments
are held ,
In order to compete in a tournament, membership in the fraternity is required.
Colleen Suess states, "Being a
member of Pi Kapp is very important to me. Today, communication is sometimes forgotten.
Pi Kappa Delta and the tournments
are a wonderful reminder of how
vital communication is in our
society today."
The unique aspect of the national
tournaments is the degree of difficulty. "Our kids went against the
best of the very best," states Harry
C. Strine III, director of BU's
Forensics Team. He explained that

each school needed to enter its top
three speakers in a given event.
Twelve events were offered at
the tournament. Strine credits
much of the team's success to the
coaching of Forensics graduate
assistant David B. Gass. "David
has done a fine job," states Strine,
"the students work hard for him,
but more importantly, they respect
him."
"The team members gave their
best at the tournament," says
Gass. "Just driving to Fayetteville
was an exhausting feat , to begin
competing immediately after such
a trip shows true dedication on the
parts of the students." "BU's team
went up against tough competition
and showed the other teams how it
is done,'' adds Gass.
Serving as* j u d g e sat the tournament were Strine, Gass and former BU graduate assistants Harry
Strausser III and Marian Wilson.

have been delayed until further
funds from outside organizations
can be obtained. According to Nick
Deitterick, funding allotted for the
projects come from three major
areas — none of which are the
students tuition. Funds are
received from an annual gift from

Kawneer, which is an unspecified
gift. Also alumni contributions and
the general administrative budget
are other areas from which money
is given to be used for campus
beautification. On occasion a
donation will be given by groups or
clubs, such as the gift given by the
CGA for the picnic area .

EDITORIAL

LETTERS

One month after The Middle States report on the state of affairs at
Cheyney University surfaced , the man at its helm, President C.T. Enus
Wright has stepped down. The report from the Middle States evaluating
committee which threatened the life of Cheyney through loss of accredidation, sited mismanagement and questions of leadership as downfalls of Cheyney.
Before Wright's decision came, a 30 page appeal was filed with the Middle States head quarters in Philadelphia. Wright's resignation , he says
was a hard decision, but he did it to soothe any doubts the Middle States
may have had about his leadership ability . Wrigh t felt that the questions
of his ability was not quite as important as the question of whether or not
Cheyney was to survive.
Wright has been criticized throughout the ordeal for not releasing information and trying hard to cover up inadequacies at Cheyney. It was
about time he did something that proved that he really did care about
Cheyney and its students. His sacrifice is not a sign of his guilt but rather
a sign of his humility and willingness to let Cheyney survive, even if his
name isn't at the top of the official stationary.
Hopefully now, the Middle States committee will see that things at
Cheyney are changing, and for the better. Maybe Wright's sacrifice will
provoke other faculty and administrators to realize their weaknesses and
work to correct them. .
It wouldn 't be a bad idea for Bloomsburg University either , would it?

CAS questioned
The issue at hand , is the Commonwealth Association of Students. For this past year, there hasn^t
been hardly a few weeks gone by
that there wasn't some controversy
surrounding this controversial
group. From the campuses of our
sister institutions in our state
system, and even here on my campus in Slippery Rock , the question
has been , "should CAS be
recognized as the student lobbying
group for the approximate 82,000
students of the SSHE?" It has
become apparent that recognition
as the student lobbying group has
dwindled , and it will continued to
dwindle. The CAS fee was taken off
the tuition fee billings ; students
rushed to get their $2,00 back which
they had paid to CAS, and then CAS
began to fret. If CAS says they
didn 't fret , then ask why such an intensive "student-campaign" was
waged.
CAS was formed by the Board of
Student Government Presidents in
the beginning and due to vast
amounts of negative publicity on
the part of CAS, recognition and
support was further denied. It is
not my intent to go into all of the
negative publicity, as this has been
done many times already. What I
do want to state, is that on practically all of our campuses in the
state system, the Student Governments of that campus, must first
recognize an organization before it
is sent for. full recognition to the
University President. If CAS says
that they do not have to go through
this process, (which they have
stated ) , then they must still learn
proper procedure . The Student
Governments which have denied
further recognition to CAS, have
done so for legitimate reasons.

Remember, students, your Student
Government is the representative
body for the studerits; decisions
aren't going to be made which" are
going to hurt the student body. This
would be political suicide in itself.
If such was the case, then the
students would outrightly revolt
against the actions of their Student
Government. The students haven 't
done this, but CAS sure has. Or , for
that iriatter, CAS has tried to lobby
the students into doing such a
thing. It is quite puzzling to see that
CAS has tried to lobby the students
into gaining their support, so as to
help the "sinking ship" of CAS. It is
also.puzzling to see that CAS is now
trying to gain student support
without the involvements of
Student Governments. The mere
fact is that if there weren 't Student
Governments, there would never
have been a CAS. CAS, which
seems to be so opposed to the
Reagan administration, but yet
they are now appealing to the
public. (The students). Is this not
what President Reagan does when
he is not going to gat fiongEfissj/anal
support?,.Bray^ ,iaS&$lf-orf^asing a
very popular Reagan tactic. How
hypocritical.
Time and time again , the students are faced with Chris Magoc's
responses to Student Governments'
actions in regards to CAS. (Chris
used to hold the position of
Executive Director of CAS). Why is
it that his word is so official? Why,
after CAS is voted against , does
Chris respond back? If alFof these
negative feedbacks are constatnly
being thrown up about CAS,
shouldn 't responses by changed in
lieu of the fact that these responses
are drawing more and more

critical acclaim? Students, you are
being 'lobbied; getting one side of
the story, and pressure is being
exerted upon you believe in one
way. THE CAS WAY. Why are you
getting things firsthand from CAS?
Good question. CAS has the time to
do all of their lobbying to the
students, whereas Student Governments must keep track of them,
(CAS) , plus manage to handle the
day to day affairs of the
Association. With that statement, I
am sure to hear from CAS responding that this is why students need
CAS. (I have already heard this
from the "CAS" group here in Slippery Rock.). I guess they feel that
Student Governments don't have
the time that they do. If Student
Government is the leading voice of
the students, then why does each
campus need a CAS local chapter ?
Two organizations for the same
purpose; let us remember that if it
weren't for Student Governriients,
there would be no CAS. A fact that
seeftiSito-be ov^erlopkedby CAS.
S niWhm Fread <the*letter.from Chris
Magoc to Betsy Rip ton in the Spectator, it made me wonder just what
type of conscience Chris and the
Edinboro local chapters of CAS
have in mind. This question I'd best
leave to the imagination. Are the
few remaining people who are left
in the CAS office in Harrisburg
fighting to save a name, or are they
fighting for the rights of students?
This will be argued with an answer
of , "we're doing both." I think not.
Fighting to save a name, and
fighting for students' rights, are
totally two different things. CAS is
seemingly fighting to save CAS,
and in this battle, the students are
losing out. And I don't want to keep
hearing over and over that CAS
spoke on an invitation from Senator
Arlen Specter. What was accomplished. We keep hearing that
this was a past success of CAS.
Well, why don't they inform the
students of the outcome? And, let
us hear, in direct quotes, what
Senator Specter has to say . I don't
see him going out of his way to
overly recognize this group. In
fact, we have only heard, and ever
so much, from just one voting
member.

is going on?

Are we,
ts of SSHE, being convered with
dirt, so;to speak. Are we being fed
mis-information? Or is it disin-

formation?
On my campus at SRU, a group
of a few people have just formed,
calling themselves a local "CAS"
chapter. Do you know why they formed so suddenly? I wonder if it's
possible that they are lobbying the
students, at this time, because my
Senate has voted to no longer support CAS. And because a vote will
be taken to withdraw them from
our Constitution and By-Laws. A
CAS chapter has been in-active
here for the past two years, and
now they are trying to tell the
students how great of an
organization they are , and how
good of a job they are doing. Has
this happened at your campus? Are
you now seeing more of CAS after
not really haven't heard anything
about such a group. The . reason is
that hey are now in "hot-water."
The SRU local chapter of "CAS"
are now "lobbying for support.
Sorry , but to insult the students like
this, further harms CAS and puts
one more nail in the CAS coffin, so
to speak.
I am almost 100 percent sure that
CAS, or rather Chris Magoc , will
respond to each of my ponderances, but responses aren 't
worth their weight in gold
anymore. Action is what's needed.
It does seem , though, that more
and more responses from CAS
against Student Governments , only
adds to the negative reputation.
CAS has caused so many
headaches in the past year alone on
many of our sister institution campuses, and it's time to finally rid
ourselves of this pain. We all want
a strong student advocacy group,
but it will not be CAS. Or rather,
the students will decide. When CAS
presents you with their "facts,"
ask for written proof , before
becoming close-minded with the
CAS cause.
What have we got to lose, except
for an "insignificant , inefficient,
and unaccountable...group." (I use
these words because they seem to
have become so popular in our
media in regards to CAS.

CAS fights

First, I would like to commend
everyone who played a role in the
organization of the student rally
which was sponsored by the Commonwealth Association of Students
(CAS) on April 2 in the Kehr Union.

The rally had stirred many
emotions within me and brought
about an appreciation for students
who have an awareness for
political actions which directly affect them.
As I left the rally to attend class,
a feeling of guilt , not as an individual but as a part of a collective
group (student body ) hit me with
sudden impact. The issues which
were being addressed pertain to
everyone of us yet the apathy and
ignorance of the majority of our
body was ever present.
I saw less than 5 percent of our
body in attendance , an amount
which included roughly 300 out of
6000 students.
For those underclassmen who
did not attend the rally , I would like
to share some information.
Statistics were announced that approximately 50 percent - 3000
students - will be affected by the
proposed
education
cuts .
Decreases will occur in both the
Pell Grant and Guaranteed Student
Loan Programs while the Supplemental Education Opportunity
Grant and National Direct Student
Loan Programs are headed for
dissolution.
Many of you who are members of
our body will not be returning next
year to pursue your education
unless you get involved with YOUR
OWN CAUSE immediately. My
suggestion to those of you who did
not attend the rally is that it's time
to get off your proverbial ,
apathetic ass and do something
about this problem before'it is too
late.
Not Apprehensive To Fight
For A Cause

Poor

As a graduating senior , the time
has come to purchase our
graduation announcements. The
announcements leave a little to be
desired. You would think after four
years of college and the amount of
money we've paid to this institution
the announcements could be more
presentable. We're half embarrassed to send them out. ( They
certainly don 't do anything to help
Bloom's reputation.)
For those of you who haven't
seen these announcements , bring
out a magnifying glass if you intend
to see the emblem-like design on
the cover. (Not even a husky. What

could possibly represent Bloom
better?) The paper itself is quite
thin and to top it off , the card which
you're suppose to write your name
and major on (which by the way
won't fit in the space provided and
will look tacky when written in
pen) jumps out at you when you
open the card. I suppose the real
shock is how nice our high school
announcements were as compared
to these.
If money is their reason for such
poor quality, I think after all the
money students have spent on their
education an extra dollar or two
isn't going to break anyone.
We're proud to be graduating
from Bloomsburg University, but
we're not proud of the way Bloomsburg is being represented. I hope
in the future this can be addressed
so the undergraduates can have
more appealing graduation announcements. Ones they can be
proud to send.

Three's
a crowd

To many students, the idea of
tripling is about as popular as the
flu. Why upset the laws of personal
space by adding a third person to
the already small living quarters?
I am one of those students who is
tripled this semester. I do" agree
tripling has its down falls but it also
has some advantages.
One major downfall is space,
both floor and wall space. If you
have a lot of posters to put up,
forget it. With three people in one
room, not all of your posters will
get put up.
If you planned on having additional furniture in the room , don't
count on it. A third desk generally
wins out over a chair or an extra
set of drawers.
For those students struck with
the urge to remodel during the middle of the semester, if you're
tripled taked my advise squash the
urge. Unless you want total chaos
in your room , you are better off
picking one furniture idea and
sticking to it.
Generally roommate class
schedules don 't match. With triples
that likelihood is almost an impossibility. Tha t means there will
be three different alarms going off
every morning. The last person
who gets up every morning will

Thought for food

Staff Writer
Where are you when the Whole
restaurant is the menu? Where are
you when your could use a third or
fourth hand to help you hold your
food? If you know , then you have
visited Mac's Hoagies.
Located at 544 East St., in Bloomsburg, Mac's is a novelty. Lining
the walls of the shop are the titles of
1600 different hoagies, ranging
from the "Beast ," a huge
American style hoagie, to the "Mac
200," 200 slices of meat and cheese.
A prospective customer does not
just walk in and sit down . A tour of
the menu is usually necessary.
Unlike many hoagie shops where
there is usually more bread than
anything else, Mac's prides itself
on providing the meatiest hoagies
it can.
The owner, Jim McElwee of
Shamokin, said , "I like to eat
hoagies made with a lot of meat on
them myself , so that is the way
they are made for my customers.
Fourteen years ago, I was out of
work and deeply in debt. My wife
was pregnant with our second
child, and things were pretty bad. I
had to do something, so one day I
decided to try to make money in the
hoagie business. My wife and I put
signs up in factories and prayed."
Orders began to come in. Using
their own kitchen to make the
hoagies and buying presliced meat
and cheese because they lacked a
slicer, they began a delivery service.
McElwee and his wife did this for
two years. He then decided to open
a shop in Shamokin. Upon opening,
he had 19 different hoagies and a
whole lot of faith. In their first
year, Mac's Hoagies grossed over
$30,000, in their second $75,000 and
in their third over $100,000.
By 1977, Mac's Hoagies' menu included over 600 different hoagies.
He later opened his second shop on
Main St., Bloomsburg, but the
location was not the best so he
moved the shop to its present
location on East St.
Covered several times by the
media for his unique establishment, McElwee says that regardless of the coverage, the students
on campus are going to have to be
willing to travel the extra distance.
Although Mac 's has recently started a delivery service, McElwee
states, "If the students who are
going out to eat do now want to
walk down here, I will not get the
business."
Looking around the shop, one
cannot help but be amused. In addition to the title signs for actual
hoagies, McElwee had added bogus

New officers for the 1985-86 academic year were elected March 31
at the latest meeting of the Interantional Relations Club.
Each candidate was first nominated aiid then gave a short speech
about themselves and their goals for the club. Afterwards, the members voted to select each officer.
The new officers are : Roshani Samarasinghe, President; Lisa
Wagner, Vice President; Shailesh Modha , Treasurer ; Najma
Viramni, Secretary; and Mohammed Zamayar, Public Relations.
Samarasighe, a sophomore special education major, hopes to
uphold her predecessor Alfred Tambe's goals. "I want the club to
remain as close and united as we are now. I'll prepare many new
ideas and activities, but the club isn 't just for one person and their
own glory. It's for everyone," she said.
Tambe's advice to all the new officers is to "prepare to serve, not
rule." The out-going officers are Alfred Tambe, President; Paulo
Lara , Vice President; Ahamad Jamily, Treasurer; Roshani
Samarasinghe, Secretary ; and Mohammed Zamayar, Public
Relations.

signs such as the "Reaganomic
Hoagie, once it gets to you there is
nothing left." Many of his actual
hoagie signs have the names of
people on them, the Martin Luther
King, the Dan Rather, and the
Sammy Davis to name a few.
When asked about weird combinations, McElwee replied, "We
get aH kinds of requests. If they can
take it , we can make it. " The oddest combination request that he
has gotten recently was for chipped
steak and peanut butter on a hamburger roll.
Questioned about the future, he
said, "I have 300 more titles of 300
new hoagies to put up on the walls.
After this, I think I will rest for a

Spring cleaning for Bloomsburg

The town of Bloomsburg is getting ready for a spring cleaning as
Bloomsburg University students
prepare to clean up highways and
access routes leading into Bloomsburg. The clean-up, according to
Bob Kelley of PennDOT , is part of
"Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful",
an annual event in the state, and is
scheduled to begin the week before
the Renaissance/Jamboree on
April 27th and 28th.
In addition to the clean-up, a

trash barrel painting contest is
being sponsored by PennDOT and
the DBBA with barrels donated by
PennDOT. Kelley said each barrel
will be primed and given to stores
wanting to participate in the contest. Employees can paint designs
on the barrels and display them at
the Renaissance where a panel of
judges will pick a winner and
award prizes. Participating stores
so far are Country Charm, the Candy Barrel,JC Penney and WHLM.

At least three of the ten professors from the Chemistry department will
be leaving at the end of this semester , according to Dr. Roy Pointer,
chairperson of the department.
Dr. John Plude , Dr. John Stahl and Dr. Donald Baird will be taking new
positions with various universities across the country.
Plude will be going to the University of Wisconsin, Oshkosh. Plude said
that this move will allow him to be better pursue his career plans. He expects UWO to provide him with a more research-oriented Chemistry
program. He will also be working with students at a graduate level.
Stahl will be going to his alma mater, Geneva College, Beaver Falls,
Pa. Pointer said that Stahl is also looking for a more religious atmosphere than is present here at BU.
Baird is moving to Western Illinois University, Macomb, 111. He, like
Plude , is looking for a more research-oriented program than is present
here.
A fourth Professor, Dr. Norman White, had been planning to retire at
the end of this semester. Pointer said that White will probably be asked to
delay his retirement until at least after the Fall '85 semester.
Pointer did not feel that there would be any major problems in filling
the vacancies in the department. He said that BU is usually able to get
new graduates to take these positions. Many of these people, fresh out of
graduate school, use a University of this size as a stepping stone to better
positions elsewhere and so there is a fairly sizable turnover.

On January 28, 1985, 45 pop stars got together in a Los Angeles
studio. Their purpose - to record a song to raise money for a nonprofi t organization , USA for Africa.
The song We Are The World was written by Lionel Richie and
Michael Jackson, and features the voices of some of music's finest
performers. Along with Richie and Jackson , singers such as.Harry
Belafonte, Ray Charles, Bruce Springsteen, Willie Nelson, Cyndi
Lauper , Billy Joel , Tina Turner , Kenny Rogers, Kin Carnes, Paul
Simon, Diana Ross, Huey Lewis, Dionne Warwick, Bob Dylan , and
more can be heard singing;
Not long after the record was released in stores and played on the
radio, it became a hit. At Tower Records West Hollywood store, 1,000
copies were sold in two days. This is incredible, considering a number one single sells only about 100 to 125 copies per week. Columbia
Records, the distributor of the single, shipped out a half-million
copies on March 6; within six days a million more had been shipped
or ordered.
Although Ken Kragen , personal manager for Kenny Rogers and
Lionel Richie suggested recording the song, it was Harry Belafonte
who initiated the idea as a fund-raiser after he had heard reppriM'Bff J

the Ethiopian tragedy . He contacted Krager , who came up with the
idea of the record. He got the idea from the song that British rockers,
Band Aid, released on behalf of Ethiopia during the holiday season,
Do They Know It's Christmas? He estimates USA for Africa will
raise $50 million. But, more than a billion dollars is needed to feed
the people in Africa this year.
All profits from the record will be turned over to USA ( United Support of Artists ) for Africa , which will funnel funds through
established relief agencies. The singers sang for free and Columbia
is donating its net proceeds to the cause.
Distributing the proceeds have been carefully worked out. The first 33 percent will go to 13 African countries for immediate relief with
special emphasis on medical aid ; another 35 percent will go toward
farm and water supply and general agricultural improvement; 20
percent will be used for "long-term economic development
programs; " and the final 10 percent will be contributed to relieve
hunger and homelessness in the U.S., thanks to Stevie Wonder's
suggestion.
The song, which can best be described as "anthemlike," is full of
compassion, but the video proves to be more moving.

Nobel Prize winner
holds lecture and workshop
GARY L. WESSNER JR.
Managing Editor
/The author of the short story
from which the film Yentl was
adapted will be visiting BU April
25-26. Isaac . Bashevis Singer
received the Nobel Prize in 1978 for
his accomplishments in literature.
While at BU he will give a special
lecture and conduct a workshop on
the art of writing and story-telling.
His other literary awards include
two National Book Awards , the
Louis Laxed Prize, and a grant
from the American Academy and
Institute of Arts and Letters, of
which he is now a member.
According to Singer he needs
three things when he sits down to
write.
1) a plot '
2) a desire or a passion to write a
story
3) a conviction or the illusion that
he is the only one who is able to
write a particular story .
Singer has written a number of
short stories for children which include Shrewd Todie and Lyzer the
Miser and Mazel and Shlimazel.
His work has appeared in numberous magazines such as The New
Ybrke^qoCommentary, . Esquire,

Partisan Review and Playboy.
He has been praised for his
novels dealing with Jewish life in
The Family Moskat, Satan in
Goray and The Magician of Lublin.
His new novel , The Image, will be
published by Farrar, Straus and
Giroux this year.
In October he had two plays open
Off Broadway. "A Play for the
Devil" was done in Yiddish and
"Shlemiel the First" was translated into English.
Singer is also recognized as
perhaps the most famous master of
story-telling in the world today
with an international background
and reputation . He was the son and
grandson of rabbis and born in
Radzymin, Poland in 1904.
He was taught by his father at a
rabbinical seminary. He began
writing in his teens. In 1926 Singer
became a journalist and worked for
a Yiddish newspaper in Warsaw
until 1935, when he came to the
United States.
The public readings will take
place at 8 p.m. Thursday, April 25
in Carver Hall. The workshop will
take place on Friday from 9:30-11
a.m., followed by a book signing at
11:30.

Gay awareness

How does someone who is not gay
relate to someone who is? Do
people choose to be gay,: or have
they no choice? If someone tells me
thay are gay , how should I react?
These questions and any others you
may have will be answered and
discussed Wednesday, April 17,
1985. The Center for Counseling and
Human Development is offering
two educational programs on Gay
Awareness on this date. The
program consists of two panel
presentations — the first session
will be from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.
in the President' s Lounge, Kehr
Union. The second panel discussion
will be held from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00
p.m. in Multi-Purpose Room A,
Kehr Union.
Why have a Gay Awareness
Program? According to the
National Gay Task Force, approximately ten percent of the
population is gay. Therefore, a percentage of people that we interact
with as students now and as
professionals later will be gay men
or lesbian women. Ten percent of
6000 students is 600 — not a small
minority. The educational program
is for you if you work with someone
who is gay, if someone in your
family is gay, if you care about

someone who is gay, if you are gay,
or if you feel that society must not
act prejudicially toward , all
minority groups.
The panel presenters will address a variety of questions and
concerns about gay men and
lesbian women in an attempt to
demystif y misconceptions about
gay people that lead us to think ,
speak, and behave in ways that are
prejudicial. Homophobia is an
irrational fear and hatred of gay
people. Like all irrational fears , it
is grounded in a lack of understanding. What we don 't understand, we fear. What we don't
understand ,
we
hate.
Homophobia 's tragic effects can be
seen in both those afflicted by it
and by society as a whole to the extent that diversity among its members is not tolerated. In both areas ,
gay people suffer by having no one
to turn to. The results can be selfhatred, fear , and the lack of will to
live. A discussion of gay issues will
help most people to reach a more
loving human understanding which
can reduce hate , reduce fear, and
increase pride in the richness of
diversity among humankind.

Cocaine

ERNIE KWIATKOWSKI
Voice'Contributor
Cocaine, once considered a drug
for only the rich and famous, is now
being * used by people of all
socioeconomic groups of our
culture. Accroding to U.S. government reports and research done by
Dr. Mark Gold, co-founder of the
National Cocaine Helpline and
Director of Research at Fair Oaks
Hospital in Summit, N.J., an
estimated 22 million people use
cocaine in this country. Of this
amount, Gold reports ten percent
will become addicted. To be considered addicted, Gold uses the
following criteria. The user must
be: 1) compulsive 2) out of control
and 3) continues, irispite of adverse
reactions, to use the drug. Along
with the current users, the U.S.
government also reports five to ten
million of the users try the drug at
least once a month, while another
five thousand people try cocaine
for the first time every day.
Cocaine is a powerful stimulant
which is most commonly sniffed
through the nostrils and absorbed
into the bloodstream in three to five
minutes with its effects lasting
from twenty minutes to one hour.
The drug's main effect is that it increases awareness and sharpens
the senses. Abusers Have also
reported the drug gives them the
most irresistible feeling they have
ever experience. As one user
stated, "If God wanted to make the
perfect drug, He would have made
cocaine."
The drug has been known to
replace food, water, and even sex

in an abuser 's life as well as
ruining the social aspects of one's
life by making crime necessary to
support one's habit. According to
Robert .Siegal, a leading cocaine
researcher, the most astounding
fact about the use of cocaine is that
many people do not know the drug
can harm them. Siegal states that
it not only harms the user, but can
kill as well.
For more information , call the
National Cocaine Hotline at 1-800COCAINE or locally at the university Counseling Center at 389-4255.

Alcohol

In the past much has been written about the effects of alcohol on
the body and how alcohol can ruin
an abuser 's life. The public is
aware of these facts, but it the
public aware of how often alcohol
ruins a life and in what ways this
can happen?
Alcohol is a central nervous
system depressant which slows the
user's reflexes and dulls the senses
rather than the popular theory of
giving the used a lift.
The U.S. government reports
that alcohol is abused by ten
million adults in the United States
today. This means that 66 percent
of all adults over the age of
eighteen can be defined as
alcoholics. The government also
reports that only one tenth of all
alcoholics are properly diagnosed
and treated which leads officials to
believe the actual number of
alcoholics may be much higher
than what is reported. The problem

Business

Prof s teps up as acting dean

.

:i

DURRELL REICHELY
Staff Writer

The Representative Assembly
was discussing the recent purchase
by the university of computer terminals to be used by department
chairpersons. One of the members
of the Assembly, Dr. Robert Yori ,
spoke up. "Were these computers
provided for academic use or are
they merely for reducing the flow
of paperwork?" he asked. There
seemed to be some confusion about
the matter.
fWe need better communication
among faculty, students, and administrators," Yori says. "I'm concerned because people are reacting
with ^misinformation or little information."
A few months ago, matters like
these might not have been very important to Yori, but these days, he's
looking at academic administrative relations from a different viewpoint. After 15 years of
teaching accounting at BU, Yori
has a new job as acting dean of the
College of Business. Temporarily,
that is.
Yori, 49, took over the position on
Jab. j2, replacin&Dr. Emory Rarig
Jrj , I'ho , after ^p yearns de^i,
went' back to teaching. Yori will
serve as acting dean until a permanent dean is selected by Aug. 31.
The duties of the dean of the
College of Business include coordinating the curriculum of the five
departments of the College of
Business—accounting, business
education , computer and information systems, finance and
business law, and marketing and
management. The dean is also in
charge of the budget, scheduling,
direction and planning, and
evaluating faculty.
A third part of the job is interaction with agencies outside the
university . This includes encouraging recruitment and
providing services to businesses.
"E want to be more active in this
area ," he says. "Right now I'm
learning the job ,. I'm working
mostly with the faculty and the
budget."
Yori's personal goal is to
"preserve cohesiveness in the
business " program until a perma nent dean is selected." He is
alio pursuing other goals for the
Ccfllege of Business. One is the
achievement of accreditation of the
College of Business by the
American Assembly of Collegiate
Schools of Business. "We haven't
applied yet," Yori says.
jjThe college has to meet several

requirments for accreditation first.
"We need to increase the number
of professors with PH.D.s on our
faculty, especially in accounting
and computer and information
systems," he says. "Also, we
currently have two graduate
assistants. To be considered for accreditation, we need double or
triple that number."
"We also need to increase the
number of volumes of information
in the library related to each
business discipline, the amount of
scholarly research and publishing
by our faculty and the size of our
secretarial and clerical staff ."
Another goal of the College of
Business is directed toward increasing the amount of classroom
space—the renovation of Sutliff
Hall.
"The renovations have been
delayed again, Yon says. "The
issue has been around for 10 years.
Last year the renovations were
delayed because of a lack of funds.
This year, the governor bumped
the Sutlitt Hall project off the top of
the list because he believed the
state heeded new prison
buildings."
"Therefore, during the delays,
we lost the buying power of the
dollar," he explains. "The inflation
factor is eating away at the money.
Also, the sta te required that we use
some of the money to put a new roof
on the building and install
elevators for the handicapped.
Even if Sutliff Hall was renovated
today, it still wouldn't meet our
needs. We may look kind of greedy
to people on the outside, but the
College of Business has grown."
A third goal for the College of
Business is the separation of the
department of marketing and
managing into two seperate departments. There are approximately
650 students in the department of
marketing and management and
Yori believes this is too large.
Yori applied for the position as
acting dean because he believes
that there are conflicting factions
in the College of Business, and if a
representative of one of these factions became permanent dean, it
would not promote cohesiveness.
"I believe that job is to promote
unity," he says.
"I also applied for the position
because I' m good at paper shuffling," he adds with a laugh.
Yori says he is glad he took the
position. "It has been a growth experience," he says. "I learned that
I have the temperment and ability
to do the job. But I'm happy as an

acting dean."
He stresses "acting dean "
because he has not applied for the
permanent position and will return
to teaching accounting in the fall.
"I like teaching better. There's
more interaction," he says. "When
you're teaching, you're constantly
interacting with students and
faculty. The only time the dean
sees anyone is when problems
arise. The dean also does a lot of
paper shuffling—I go through a
thick folder of mail every day.''
Although Yori has spent much of
his life teaching business ,, that
wasn't his major when he began
college. "When I first enrolled at
Penn State, I was an electrical
engineering major," he says.
"Everyone told me that it was a
good job and that engineers made
good money. It only took me two
weeks to realize that I didn 't know
enough math and science to be an
engineer."
As part of his general studies,
Yori took an accounting class and
found that he liked it. After two
years at PSU, he transferred to BU
to major in business education.
"My inspiration was Preston
Peighrall , a PSU history
professor ,'-' Yori recalls. "He was a
hard—nosed S.O.B., but he was a
great teacher,"
Upon graduation from BU in
1957, Yori became a business
teacher in the Lehighton Area
School District. He eventually
became chairman of the business
department.
Yori joined the BU faculty in 1969
after receiving his master's degree
in business administration from
Lehigh University. He chose to
teach at BU because "I was
familiar with the area and I
graduated here. Besides, Bloomsburg is a great place to live and
work. It's not Utopia , but the atmosphere is good."
One of the major differences between high school teaching and
college teaching, according to
Yori, is the motivation of the
students. "In high school , students
have to be there. In college , students are self-motivated—they want to
be here."
Another difference is the fact
that a college professor doesn't
have to contend with the babysitting duties of a high school teacher.
"No more homeroom, study hall,
bus or lunch duty," Yori says.
"You can spend more time actually
teaching."
Yori has served as chairman of
the business administration department ( 1974-1977) and the ac-

counting department ( 1982-1984) at
BU.
Besides being a teacher, Yori is
also self-employed in the Bloomsburg area as a certified public account ( CPA). He provides tax, acand
auditing,
counting,
management advisory services for
small businesses,
"It's not that much of a second
income," he says. "During the tax
season, which is the busy season, I
only work at my practice about 15
hours a week. I feel that the practical experience helps my teaching.
It forces me to stay current, and I
can use it in the classroom."
Yori's not the only person in his
family interested in accounting,
His wife, Peggy, earned her
bachelor's degree in business
education and her master's degree
in business administration at BU
and is now employed at BU as a
full-time temporary accounting
professor.
Working in the same department
as your spouse might cause
problems for some people, but not
for Yori. "There really haven't
been any conflicts , even when we
were both teaching accounting," he
says. "Now, we see less of each
other than before because we have
different schedules."
Although Yori has been busy the
last few years working on his doctorate in accounting from Penn
State (which he completed last
year) , he still finds time to pursue
some of his favorite hobbies including "girl-watching," do-ityourself projects around the house,
and traveling.
Yori enjoys teaching at BU and
one,of the things he likes best about
the school is the personalities of the
students and faculty. "I had some
of my best friends as students," he
says.
And to Dr. Robert Yori, interaction with people is very important. "Accountants work with
people, not just numbers. We help
people solve problems," he says.

Spring practice begins

Tabbed as . a "bona-fide
challenger" in 1984, the Bloomsburg University football team exceeded even those expectations by
capturing the Pennsylvania Conference's Eastern Division championship and made a first-ever appearance in the "State Game."
Now , fourth year head coach
George Landis and almost 90 performers must prepare to seek a
second consecutive trip to the
championship contest as they go
through four weeks of spring drills ,
capped by the "Maroon and Gold"
game on May 4. .
"There is going to be no major
difference in what we've tried to
accomplish each spring since I've
been at Bloomsburg," stated Landis. "Our goal at this time of year is
to bring as many people up to a
competitive varsity level as
possible...to create a situation that
allows those second and third
string players who improved themselves over the winter to get into
the lineup."
For the first time in four years,
Landis and staff will be looking at a
lot of familiar faces as 20 starters
return including the entire defensive unit.
"Basically , it's going to be a matter of improving our depth on
defense since everyone is back
from last year," commented Landis.

Two-time AP First Team AilAmerican Frank Sheptock leads
the defensive unit from his inside
linebacker slot where he has also
gained All-Conference First Team
honors in each of his three seasons
with the Huskies. BU also boasts a
Second Team AH-American choice
on the defense in cornerback Tony
Woods. He will miss spring drills
while competing as the top sprinter
on the school's track and field
squad. The Huskies' other starting
cornerback in 1984, freshman Paul
Fisher, suffered a slight knee injury in the off season and will miss
the spring drills as well. "We'll
have the opportunity to look at new
faces in those positions and that
will definitely help us in the long
run ," stated Landis.
All-Pennsylvania Confernce
selections Jim Tyson and Dave
Heckman will lead the line and outside linebacking groups again this
season.
The coaching staff plans one
major move as junior Brian
Scriven will return to outside
linebacker where he saw some
playing time in 1983. Last season,
Scriven served as one Of the
Huskies' runningbacks and gained
229 yards on 75 carries and scored
two touchdowns.
That move was the lone defection
from the Huskies' offensive backfield, and every one of the pass cat-

Golfers driving to title
The Bloomsburg University golf
team headed into its 1985 season
following a 1984 campaign during
which the team recorded its winningest season (11-4) since 1978 and
ended the year with a three-match
winning streak.
Following a number of seasons
during which the team had finished
near the .500 mark, third-year
coach Bill Sproule has led the
Huskies to a 18-11 record over the
past two seasons including last
spring's impressive mark. Sproule
has no reason to believe that this
recent success won 't continue as
the team was impressive during
the fall in a number of tournaments.
Sproule commented, "We always
play to win any tournament or match we're in, but the main emphasis
of playing in the fall is to get the
team experience and exposure to
get them ready for the spring. I
was very happy with our effort this
fall. "
After last year's performance,
Sproule has much to look forward
to as this year's team sports only

one upperclassman among its 14
members. This year's team includes one senior , seven
sophomores and six freshman.
Although young, Sproule expects
the team to respond saying, "I expect the kids who scored for us last
year to come back stronger than
ever, and their experience should
show in the close matches.
Leading the Huskies into the 1985
campaign will be a pair of
sophomores, Bill Kahres , and Dan
Kelbaugh. Also looking impressive
thus far have been sophomores
John Malley, Tom Reagan , and
John Riley, as well as freshman
Bob Sinopoli, and Doug Barbacci.
Coach Sproule explained that
"before each match , the golfers
who will play that day are chosen
based on the last five rounds they
have played handicapped based on
the courses on which they have
played. What this does is give
everybody a chance to improve
their score enough to crack the
starting lineup because there
really is no set lineup from match
to match. "

chers are back as well. A healthy
1984 for quarterback Jay Dedea
produced 1,094 passing yards and
10 touchdowns after he took over
the reins from Mike Glovas, who
passed for 1,056 yards and two
touchdowns.
Wide receiver Joe Dowd , a PC
Second Team pick, and tight end
Kevin Grande both pulled down 26
catches for 466 and 336 yards
respectively, and flanker Ken
Liebel had 25 receptions for
another 379 yards. One of only two
departures on the offensive unit
was tight end Brian Bidelspach ,
who had 24 catches for 347 yards.
Four solid backs led by tailback
Jeff Flickner all saw considerable

action a year ago:'i5Flickner , a
junior , rushed 147 times fdr 702'Vards behind fullback Calvin 'Robinson , who battlefd : injuries
throughout the campaign1•-'r>aind
gained 378 yards on 85 carries . A
duo of first-year performers improved as the season progressed
allowing Leonard Bluitt and Tom
Futch to combine for 312 yards ' on
79 carries.
The story in the offensive line
will be finding a replacement for
two-time AP Honorable Mention
Ail-American cetner Mike Jupina .
"It will be a key search for us,"
commented Landis. "We'll be

Volley ball Club
LAURA WISNOSKY
Staff Reporter
The Volleyball Club is not a
loosely-structured club for players
who feel like hitting the ball
around.
The club has a different attitude.
"We have established goals and
are working towards becoming a
competitive team," Annette Bruno,
organizer of the Volleyball Club
comments.
Bruno is a sophomore who transferred to Bloomsburg from Lehigh
last year. She played volleyball on
Lehigh's team for one year and
because she enjoyed it so much,
she decided to start a volleyball
club at BU.

At the beginning of last semester
Bruno called a meeting for all those
interested in playing volleyball and
arranged practice dates.
"There was a lot of interest in the
club from the start , " Bruno said.
Many people showed up at practices which consisted of scrimmaging for about two hours.
The Volleyball Club is-now much
more orgariized. •"¦Mostly;Regulars
attend the two to three weekly
practices. The members are
serious about volleyball and are
working towards improving their
skills and setting up offensive and
defensive plays. The club eventually hopes to become a varsity

BIFs 1st national champ

DAVID LOVELL
Sports Reporter
The saying "records are made to be broken," certainly held true for
Bloomsburg University senior Gwen Cressman as she set four BU records, and a national record during the '84-85 women's swimming season.
Cressman, who is S'lOVa", 140 pounds, set four of the five records at the
NCAA Division II Women's Swimming and Diving Championships at
Rollins College in Orlando, Fla., and became BU's first Division II
national swimming champion.
Cressman set the national record and won the national title in the 200yard individual medley with a time of 2:08.56. Cressman's time broke the
Division II record at 2:08.85, set last year by Clarion's Joyce Skoog.
Other BU records set by Cressman:
—100-yard freestyle, 53.02...set at nationals
—200-yard freestyle, 1:54.00.. .at nationals
—200-yard backstroke, 2:09.00...at nationals
—100-yard backstroke, 59.95...set in a dual meet vs. Clarion.
Cressman said, "Going under a minute in the 100-yard backstroke was
one of two highlights in my career, since it was a goal I set in high school.
The national championship is certainly the other, but is hasn't really sunk
in yet."
... Cressman attributed her success to off season training and the experience of Coach Mary Gardner. Cressman said, "I lifted freeweights

(Continued from page 10)
looking at a group ot people including Tom Zalewski, Terrance
Ginyard, John Fulmer and Alex
Zangari among others. When
August rolls around, we'll probably
add Dave Tracy to that list."
Tracy, a senior tackle who injured
his knee in the Huskies' final
regular season contest at
Lycoming, will miss the spring
practice sessions.
Landis added , "In general , our
offense improved but at times was
very inconsistent, especially in the
interior line. We are going to try to
improve in that area right now.''
One of the biggest tasks of the
spring will be the improvement of
the kicking game Jor Bloomsburg.
Consistency in both the punting and
placekicking lacked in 1984 and the
Huskies will take a hard look at
that phase of the game in the next
few weeks.
The fourth year head coach also
plans some different alignments
both offensively and defensively
this spring. "It's experimental at

this stage , but something we want
to look at and see if we want to go
further with several of our ideas,"
Landis said.
Last season, the Huskies showed
flashes of brilliance on the way to
the division title but a 6-5 overall
record reaffirms Landis' claim of
inconsistency at times, and that is
what the team will look to rid themselves of as they prepare to defend
the crown beginning the season on
September 14 against mid-state
rival Shippensburg .
"Many of our faces are the same,
but every year the personality of a
football team changes so we'll be
anxious to see how our first large
group of seniors leads this team.
"We've made great strides in the
strength area this winter , .and I've
gotten what I've asked for from
this group. It will be interesting to
see how this team reacts to the
challenge of defending its championship in the Eastern Division ,
but for right now , we just want to
work hard and get better ," Landis
concluded.

and ran women's cross country before the season started." Cressman
also said that the increase in yardage she swam in practice was a definite
factor.
Cressman added, "Since I'm from Orlando, Fla . it really helped having
my family and friends cheering me on."
Teammate Dana Grubb said, "Gwen has a really good attitude, and
works hard." Grubb agreed with Cressman about the increase in yardage
they swam in practice playing a large roll.
Coach Gardner said, "Gwen had a great deal of personal dedication
this year. Her off season work outs were a lot more demanding this year
than in the past, and it really paid off for her.''
Gardner added, "When Gwen came here she wasn't swimming on the
level she is now, but she steadily improved over the four years, that
reflects back on Gwen's personality and our program."

Tennis mark in jeopardy

8-5 and also a conference semi-finalist.
rfoiifi At- Nfl.J.sjngles, however, the questions start for Herbert.
ri r ^Marilou^©onekerwould be at No. 4," he said , "But she's out with
mononucleosis." Instead, the fourth slot will probably go to junior Karen
Ambielli. She had a 4-5 fall season at No. 5 singles.
The last two starting spots are'yet to be determined with senior Wendy
. Spease, and sophomore Susan Graeff , (1-1) vying for those places.
Two freshmen newcomers to the team, Stacey Aponick, and Amy Norton, will also look for playing time.
Landis and Masch will anchor Bloomsburg 's doubles teams. The two
went unbeaten until the conference semi-finals last fall where they lost a
tough three set match to the Shippensburg team. They finished at 10-1.
- The last two doubles teams are also questionable right not.
"With Marilou out, it really poses a problem for us with doubles," Herbert said. "I have no idea what we'll end up with ," he continued. "I just
hope some people scrap and scrape and win some matches."
One thing the seventh-year coach can count on, though, is Landis
"scrapping and scraping" toward the school's all-time win mark .

C.J. Huhn

Bonomo, Sanders, King

Wrestling honors

Bloomsburg University s Rick
Bonomo added to his long list of
honors and was joined by teammate Marty King and head coach
Roger Sanders as the Pennsylvania
Conference handed out its annual
wrestling awards.
Bonomo, who became only the
school's second Division I national
champion, was picked as the conference's "Wrestler of the Year, "
receiving 10 of the 11 votes cast by
the PC coaches, while King, a PC
champion along with Bonomo,
shared "Freshman of the Year"
honors with Lock Haven's Brad
Lloyd, and Sanders was picked as
the "Coach of the Year" by his
colleagues.
Bonomo won the 118 lb. championship in the NCAA Tournament
last month in Oklahoma City to cap
a season of sustained excellence.
The sophomore from Hunlock
Creek and Lake-Lehman High
School, was 8-1 in dual meets and
26-1 in tournaments for the year, a
34-2 record. He won the SheridanLehigh Invitational, the Wilkes
Open, went 4-0 in the Virginia
Duals and won the Pennsylvania
Conference before sustaining a
knee injury in a loss in the EastWest All-Star meet. Rick missed
most of the month of February but
then returned to win the title in the
Eastern Wrestling League
qualifier at Lock Haven. He was
earlier chosen as the EWL's
''Wrestler of the Year.''
In the NCAA Championships, he
won a superior decision , a

technical fail, two pins and a 17-3
superior over Iowa's Matt Egeland
in the finals. No other wrestler so
dominated his weight class.
Coach Sanders' Huskies won the
season-opening Bloomsburg Invitational, the Sheridan-Lehigh Invitational, the Wilkes Open and the
West Chester Invitational before
sweeping to their second consecutive Pennsylvania State
Athletic Conference crown. In addition, they were second in the
prestigious Virginia Duals , beating
North Carolina State, 19-18, and
Tennessee, 26-13, in nationally
significant wins before losing to
Louisiana State, 30-9, in the finals.
The Huskies finished third in the
Eastern Wrestling League tourney .
The team finished 15-5 in dual
meets and wound up the year 10th
in the NCAA Tournament, the
highest among the PSAC qualifying
members.
Coach Sanders now has a 201-78-4
career dual meet record , including
151-60-3 at Bloomsburg and 50-18-1
in five seasons at New York
University.
Marty King, Canandaigua , NY,
registered a 3.1-9-1 record in his
freshman season including titles in
the Bloomsburg Invitational, the
Sheridan-Lehigh Invitational , the
West Chester Invitational and the
Pennsylvania Conference, the lone
freshman to win the PSAC. Marty,
who began the season at 134 but
then moved up to 142, was upset in
the Eastern Wrestling League and
didn 't make the NCAA's.

Track

The BU men lost their third meet
of the season 108-43 at Kutztown
last Wednesday.
Coach Puhl felt that the poor
overall performance was due to a
severe lack of team spirit as well as
individual will on the part of
several athletes. He also noted that
there has been "some progress
made by the team, especially by
those who attend practice
regularly". I really feel that the
members -who feel that they can
just show up when they want to are
really undermining the whole team
structure." Puhl says that he would
feel bad about kicking these men
off , because of the high degree of
potential, however it seems to be
the next step. "These athletes have
a special talent, but without the
dedication to train, they will never
be able to contribute to the team atmosphere." Puhl also plans to elect
team captains to try to raise
morale.
Despite nine no shows for last
weeks meet they did take 4 firsts
and 11 seconds and thirds in 18
events. The top point winner was
Tony Woods who scored 8, taking
first in the 100 with a time of 11.0
seconds and second in the 200
meters, running it in 23.3. In the
field events Bill Lutzko took first in
the discus and Mark Landis took
first in the shot put with throws of
116'8" and 43'2" respectively.
Brian Symington took first in triple
jump with a jump of 41'3".
The men will have a home meet
this Saturday.

Women lose

The Husky women fell to Kutztown in a dual meet on Wednesday,
83-62.
According to Coach Puhl, the
women's team is really coming
together, and despite the lack of
distance runners, they have a lot of
potential.
W e d n e s d a y 's m e e t w a s
highlighted by eight first places including Lynn Ritz, who qualified
for the State Meet by running 12.9
seconds in the 100 meter dash.
Bloomsburg finished first and
second in the 200 with Marianne
Fidishen running 26.4 and Lynn
Ritz running 27.2. Fidishen, Noell
Collura and Lori Wagner placed 1,
2 and 3 sweeping the 400 with a winning time of 1:00.8. Other , place
winners were Renee Scarpa , third
in the 100; Lisa Barry, third in the
400 hurdles ; and the 1600 relay
team winning in a time of 4:30.7.
The weight throwers scored a
season high 18 out of 27 possible
points, Ca^ol Hetrick tOOK Iir§£ IH
the shot put witn a put 6f 32'8v':.
Beth Lodanosky took second with a
throw of 30'9" and senior Lisa
Stewart threw a third place 29'1".
Lodanosky also took second in the
discuss and third in the javelin for
a total of 7 points.
In other field events, Cindy
Graby placed first in the triple
jump with a jump of 32'2" while
Ann Blasco took third. The women
also took 2 places in the high jump,
Tammy Sukanik, second at 5' and
Betty Ann Lucko third at 4'11".
The women will be competing in
Shippensburg this Saturday.

Landis six shy of mark
Justine Landis has already won two Pennsylvania Conference No. 1
singles titles for the Bloomsburg University women's tennis team. What
the senior co-captain will be looking for now is the school's all-time career
win mark as she and the Huskies enter the 1985 spring season.
Landis, the 18th ranked NCAA Division II player after the fall season ,
needs just si" r s to surpass Deb Orendorff 's total of 59 wins at BU. Landis currently has a 54-13 mark after a 12-1 fall campaign.
Head coach Mike Herbert said, "I'm hopeful she can conclude her
senior year with a good season. She has the opportunity to set the career
win mark, and I'm hopeful she can do it. "
Landis will have over nine chances to set the record as the Huskies
begin their dual match and tournament schedule April 8 by hosti ng
Lafayette.
Herbert will place junior co-captain Kathy Masch, and freshman Cortlee Gerhart, at No, 2 and 3 singles respectively. Masch was 11-2 in the fall
and a semi-finalist in the conference championships , while Gerhart was
