Students to f ace mischief charges AROTC may leave Bloomsburg soon by Scott Davis Staff Writer Problems at Bloomsburg University may force the Army Reserve Officers Training Corps (ROTC) off campus, according to Dave Everett , the Army ROTC commanding o fficer at Bloomsburg University . Everett cites a lack of financial and moral support may force the Army ROTC to leave campus as of Dec. 1, 1986. He add^d that there is a possibility of them staying on for the remainder of the fall semester , but the U.S. government will want them out unless the university gives them more financial and moral support. Sheryl Bryson , the head of University Relations said , "It is not true that the ROTC is moving off campus. '' Delbert Roll , another member of Army ROTC , said , "The ROTC needs the kind of moral support that the football or baseball team receives. " He added there are about 50 people in the program now. Andrew Whittak , first squad leader , said there is no danger at this time. He added the Army has told the univers ity they need more office space and the university may not be able to give it. He said if the need for funding and better facilities is met , they will stay . If not , Whittak added , the Army is not sure what steps will be taken. "They (Army) had been talking about it (leaving) for several years, " said Dr. Jerrold Griffis, vice president for Student Life. "The only responsibility of the university is to provide space for them to operate ," said Bryson. "The ROTC is suffering growing pains , as are many organizations on campus. The college is try ing to find more space. That 's all the university is responsible for.

(Voice photo' by Imtiaz Ali Taj) I CIA involved with Iran seven years by Bob Woodward LA Times-Washington Post Service WASHINGTON-The Reagan administration 's secret overtures and arms shipments to Iran are part of a seven-year-long pattern of covert Central Intelligence Agency operations , some dating back to the Carter administration , that were designed both to curry favor with the . regime of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini and support Iranian exiles who seek to overthrow it, according to informed sources. In 1983, for example, the CIA participated in a secret operation to provide a list of Soviet KGB agents and collaborators operating in Iran to the Khomeini regime, which then executed up to 200 suspects and closed down the communist Tudeh party in Iran , actions that dealt a major blow to KGB operations and Soviet influence there , the sources said. Khomeini also expelled 18 Soviet diplomats, imprisoned the Tudeh party leaders and publicly thanked God for "the miracle" leading to the arrests of the "treasonous leaders ." At the same time , secret presidential intelligence orders , called "findings," authorized the CIA to support Iranian exiles opposed to the Khomeini regime , the sources said . These included providing nearly $6 million to the main Iranian exile movement , financing an anti-Khomeini exile group radio station in Egypt and supply ing a miniaturized television transmitter for an 11 -minute clandestive broadcast tb lrah two months ago by Reza Pahlavi , the son of the late Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi , who vowed , "I will return. " One well-placed intelligence source said that this support of the anti-Khomeini exile movement is "just one level above (intelli gence) collection ," and that the money involved was equivalent to the "walkingaround money " frequentl y distributed in American political campaigns. Administration officials stressed that the CIA operations are not intended to bring about Khomeini' s downfall but are aimed primarily at obtaining intelli gence about his regime through the exile groups. The White House and administration spokesmen declined to comment on these CIA operations. Vice Adm. John M. Poindexter , the president 's national security affairs adviser , told a television interviewer Sunday that "I don 't want to confirm or deny any other operations " and added that "we aren 't seeking the overthrow of the Khomeini regime. " Press and broadcast reports from Iran have repeatedly accused the U.S. government of backing anti-Khomeini exile activities. Informed sources said that the Khomeini regime knows many of the details of the CIA operations because it has agents inside the Iranian exile groups. Some of the Iranian exiles in Paris said it is well-known within their groups that they have received CIA money . Sources also said that some of the CIA money was used to speculate in currency markets in Switzerland. Administration sources said that all CIA programs concerning Ira n have been designed with several objectives: to build brid ges to potential Iranian leaders , to use the exiles for information about what is happening in Iran , to develop independent intelli gence sources , to win friends , to diminish Soviet influence and to keep pressure on the Khomeini reg ime by demonstrating that the exile and by Norman Kempster reshape the issue to minimize the damage to U.S. efforts to isolate nations supporting terrorism. After years of urg ing the rest of the world to refuse to deal with terrorists or the states that back them, the administration was embarassed by disclosures that the White House had authorized weapons shipments to Iran that coincided with the release of three U.S. hostages by Iranianinfluenced kidnappers in Lebanon. "Obviously, this will make it a lot more difficult to impose economic sanctions (against states supporting terrorrism) ," the official said. "The feeling is that we would be whistling in the wind right now if we press for concerted actions against Syria. " The administration imposed sanctions against Syria last week in response to evidence introduced in British courts implicating the Damascus regime in an aborted p lot to bomb an Israeli airliner carry ing more than 200 Americans. "Schultz is try ing to close the door in the arms sale and get back to business," the official said. "This does not eliminate the need for close cooperation on security measures and deterrence. " "There are aspects of antiterrorism programs that have nothing to do with sanctions against countries that support terrorism ," the official added. As a first step toward closing off the controversy , the White House staff and the State Department - once bitter bureaucratic foes over the Iran arms shipments- have adopted a single public position on the issue - the weapons were not ransom for the hostages , no matter how the coincidence in timing may make it appear. By adhering to this line , Reagan can afford what earlier had seemd to be the inevitability that someone would have to resign. The president 's repudiation of the arms-shipment plan gives Schultz the sort of vindication that allows him to stay on the job . And Schultz 's bureaucratic advesary , White House national security adviser John M. Poindexter , can remain as well. Because Reagan has defended his role , the removal of Poindexter would undercut the president 's assertion that the plan never included a direct arms-for-hostages bargain. "I know of' no plans for anybody to resign , " a White House official said. The Iran arms issue was the second time in a little less than a year that Schultz won a bureaucratic battle by threatening to quit. Last December , the secretary faced down the White House staff over a plan to require random lie detector tests. Reagan modified the regulation to eliminate the parts that Schultz opposed . In both cases, Schultz lost the fight as long as the matter was kept secret within the administration but , once the issue became public , he prevailed. Schultz will not quit post L.A.

Chapman recieved awards Tuesday at the Hotel Magee from Delta Mu Delta , a national honor society for business administration and computer science majors. The awards were given by members of last year's graduating class of Delta Mu Delta to professors who influenced them most during their four years at BU. Batory , who could not attend due to a prior committment, received the award from marketing majors , Dill from finance majors and Chapman received awards from management , accounting and computer science majors . Chapman said , "I love to teach. I promised myself that when I learn less from my students then they learn from me, that is when I will , get out of teaching. " The ceremony was attended by BU President Harry Ausprich who spoke on scholarships, and Daniel Pantaleo, acting provost and vice-president of academic affairs. Along with the piesentation of the awards, 12 new members were inducted into Delta Mu Delta. The requirements for induction are a 3.2 cumulative average, 64 credits earned , a business administration or computer science major and a high moral standing. Delta Mu Delta's officers are Randy L. Weidner, president; Chris Basar , vice-president; Diane Fagan , secretary; and Sue Weinrich , treasurer. WASHINGTON-Secretary of State George P. Schultz, convinced that he has finally prevailed in his campaign to reverse the administration 's Iran arms program , has decided not to resign and is ready to try to refurbish the government 's tattered antiterrorism policy, officials said Tuesday . A senior State Department official said that Schultz interpreted as a complete vindication of his own position President Reagan 's statement that he had "absolutely no plans " to send additional weapons to the Tehran regime. As recently as Sunday, Schultz appeared introspective and embarassed by the administration 's Iran policy . Interviewed on CBS-TV' s "Face the Nation. " he acknowledged that he did not speak for the administration on the issue and did nothing to discourage speculation that he was ready to quit. But 24 hours later , in a speech Monday at the University of Chicago, Schultz had regained his customary aplomb and he seemed confident again that he was again in control of U.S. foreign policy. "He seemed just like himself," the senior official said of the Chicago appearance. "I don 't see any signs (that he plans to resign) ." Another State Department official said that Schultz hoped to See page 3 Two Bloomsburg University freshmen will faces charges including criminal mischief following the vandalism of 45 tombstones in Old Rosemont Cemetery on Oct. 31, according to Bloomsburg patrolman Joseph Wondoloski. Robert Partlow , 18, of 447 Montour Hall and Matthew Mclntyre, 18, of 265 Luzerne Hall will each be charged with underage d r i n k i n g , public drunkenness and criminal mischief. Wondoloski said the two freshmen admitted to the offense after being questioned by the police. "At first , they admitted to damag ing only several of the tombstones , but later admitted to all 45," Wondoloski added . Robert Grote , 18, of 265 Luzerne Hall , notified officials after witnessing the two fall over a 100-foot cliff behind the cemetery . Charges were not filed against Grote because he and the two accused told police he was not involved. Wondoloski said Partlow and Mclntyre could have been charged with institutional vandalism , a more serious offense. "Because they cooperated with the police , the lesser charge was opted for , " Wondoloski added . According to District Justice Donna Coombe's office , a hearing date has been set for Dec. 4 at 9 a.m. Robert Norton , Assistant VicePresident and Dean of Student Life , said a hearing will be held on campus to determine what disciplinary actions will be taken against the two accused . "The hearing (on-campus) will occur before the hearing at Coombe ' s office , " Norton added .

Commentary Features Classifieds Sports page page page page 2 4 6 8 Commentary A question of Security Recently, The Voice was atter information concerning the incident which involved a security vehicle crashing into Elwell. And an even shorter time ago. we were after information regarding the bomb threat that occurred last weekend. In both cases, when we contacted the Law Enforcement Office, we were told to call aftcs. 11 p.m. and t alk to the third shift personnel. Doing so, we were then told we must speak to the assistant chief, who would not be present in the office until the following morning. In the first case, when we spoke to the assistant chief the following morning, we were told thai Law Enforcement could not g ive us any information and we would have to call University Relations to get a press release. In the second case, we did not bother contacting the assistant chief. We did not have time to wait until mornine. Is the Law Enfo rcement Ottice at Bloomsburg University a law enforcement agency or merel y another office of the administration? It seems interesting to note that Paul Conard , the assistant vicepresident for administration , hands out parking tickets around campus. Is he administration , security , or both? An official.assurcd me that our security force is a law enforcement agency. They do make arrests. This person also said the reason security does not talk to the press is because they have gotten burned by the press. My personal difficulty with this issue stems from the fact that the Law Enforcement Office is open around the clock , incidents occur around the clock, but information is unavailable unless it is requested during the dayli g ht hours between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. It is true that Shery l Bryson. the head of University Relations , is on call around the clock , but how is she going to find out about something that happens at 2 a.m. on a Saturday night unless she herself contacts or is contacted by Law Enforcement? Also, she obviousl y would not be in on an arrest , so any information we would get from her would most likely not include any direct quotes from tqe officer on the scene , specific details , etc . This appears to be the perfect public relations failsafe device against the press . Should an issue, an event , or even an accident occur on campas that demands coverage , there will be no story unless we have a deluge of time to go through the of well-laid n^inefield channels , or contact Shery l Bryson at home , should she know about the incident prior to our call. If it is possible to run without comment fro m Law Enforcement , there will be no official comment in the story , unless Bryson calls security for the information and contacts us. This lack of official comment ofte n results in the elimination of at least the story 's completeness , not to mention its credibility . Is there a problem with the officer who was on the scene simply relating the known facts of the situation? Does the administration see a difficulty in giving us however much truth that is obtainable? Curious. Concerned thinking Compassion is knowledge too by Imtiaz Ali Taj Statf Writer "There is a bomb p lanted in Lycoming Hall which will go off at 4 a.m. ' Seeing the girls run out of the dorm mi ght be an idea of fun for some immature person , but did this person realize how much inconvenience he caused? Did he consider the pain of getting up at four in the morning on a weekend; rushing out of the dorm, scared and confused: and the inconvenience to the hall staff and security ? If Jennie Carpenter was afraid to give out information about the incident because she thoug ht it mi g ht g ive ideas to other peop le, how wrong was she? When will we learn to put ourselves in others " shoes and realize the suffering we are causing ? How many of us would like to get up in the middle of the ni ght and rush out of the dorm just to find out it was a sill y joke? Did the caller ever wonder what kind of accidents could have occurred? How many of us remember the story about the boy who used to call 'Wolf , Wolf , ' just to laug h at the villagers when they came running ? What were the consequences of what he did? Was the onl y moral of the story not to lie? Shouldn 't we consider the sheep? A few weeks ago , a student sent a security car fl y ing down the street in front of Lycoming and crashing into Elwell Hall. For that young man , it mi g ht have been a great joke , but did he realize what the consequences mi g ht have been?. One of the main interests of college students today is to part y . How many peop le have witnessed students fi ghting and carry ing on afte r getting drunk at a party? Do these students realize the inconvenience they cause those who have to listen to this? The individual who created the bomb scare and the other who sent the car rolling toward Elwell did not consider the people around them. As members of a society , we should be concerned more about whether our needs violate the ri ghts of others , and less about whether our wants are satisfied. It would be easy to keep from infring ing upon others if one could only learn to use imag ination and see the other side of the situation. We are students but also human beings , and the learning process will continue long after we leave college. Textbooks and classwork alone will not teach everything there is to be learned. Knowled ge must be searched for. One must learn to consider the feelings of others. And the best time to learn is ri g ht now. Mandatory drug testing Are our freedoms lost in a vial? by Robert W. Flanders II GUCMI Columnist refusing to cooperate in mand a t o r y , i n d i s c r i m i n a t e drug "The ri g ht of the people to be secure in their persons... against u n r e a s o n a b l e s e a r c h e s and seizures, shall not be violated... " M a n d a t o r y drug testing by employers is clearl y a violation of e v e r y c i t i z e n ' s ri g hts guarenteed by the Fourth Amendment of the Constitution. A f t e r r a t i f i c a t i o n of t h e "supreme law of the land" upon which our system of government is based , the Founding Fathers enacted a Bill of Rights to safeguard individuals against a new national p ow e r f u l , government. Nearly 200 years later , the executive branch , with the consent of the judic ial , has chosen to ignore the ideals upon which our great nation was founded. It is our right to challenge government and business by testing . But economics and professional realities prohibit many of us from overt defiance. A San Diego based group, Question Authority , has put out a recorded p hone message (619-976-8378) g iving important information on how to beat drug tests. The first step is knowing how long a specific substance will remain in the body at detectable levels. The time required for marijuana to reach safe levels is 5-20 days , cocaine 2-3 day s, amp hetamines and barbituates 3-5 days. Urinalysis tests have a high rate of error , so if you fail once , demand a retest. Simp ly being in a car or room where peop le are smoking marijuana can register a positive result.

Whether one condemns or condones drug usage , we must combat the threat to our personal liberties posed by continued drug testing. Last week a federal jud ge ordered a halt to the testing of Customs Service emp loyees (whose job it is to stop the flow of illegal drugs across our borders) calling it an illegal and unwarrented search and seizure. This decision dealt a serious blow to President Reagan 's mandate for a "drug-free federal workplace " and may deter the planned testing of all federal employees. This is an important first step in the right direction.

IWifPH1 Yankees want 'expressive cars' by George Will Editorial Columnist NEWPORT BEACH , Calif. -In the tonier showrooms along Pacific Coast Hi ghway , where folks sell Ferraris to people who can not afford Lagondas, and Lagondas to people who think they can not afford to be seen driving anything as declasse as a Rolls Royce , a sedate calm obtains. However , elsewhere in this land of driven drivers , the price war that has errupted in automobile financing is the cause of cheerfu l chaos . A Los Angeles Times reporter f o u n d that a Costa Mesa Oldsmobile salesman had no time for journalists : "It 's very busy , like a zoo. Gotta go. " War is heck , this war begun in weakness by the bi g boy on the block , General Motors. GM is learning, late in life , not to make the loony m i s t a k e of t h i n k i n g ;> that Ameripahs regard cars asoinere transportation. Yes , even mi ghty GM can come a cropper by forgetting elemental matters . However, as a baseball manager with a weak grasp of history but a strong sense of life 's vicissitudes once said , "Even Napolean had h i s Watergate. " Car-loan rates under 3 percent (and the desire to buy expensive items before tax reform reforms away the deductibility of sales taxes) have caused a stampede , beneath which may be translated prospects for sales of 1987 models. If that causes the sluggish economy to go south , with political consequences extending to the end of civilization as we have known it , much blame will fall on the GM designers who a few years ago decided to make all their cars look alike . With 1987 models yearning to breathe free , GM in August had more than a million unsold 1986 cars and trucks. One reason for GM' s overproduction , and for its declining market share , is mocked in the Lincoln commercial that merril y depicts confusion among owners of look-alike Cadillacs , Buicks and Oldsmobiles. GM' s Pontiac division has turned , as much as possible within the sty ling constraints , toward producing what one executive calls "expressive cars . " A t t a boy . Now you are remembering the future: For Americans , cars are instruments of self-expression , ri g ht up there with sexual fantasies. Business Week reports that Pontiac , the only GM division to increase its market share from 1982 to 1985, commisioned a psychologist to study customers ' "deepest - fantasies about- driv^ ing: " He found that flashy cars made middle-age women feel younger. Hence the commercial in which a teen-ager urges mom to cut loose and buy a red Sunbird . For Pontiac , this is something of a return to its modern roots . In the 1960 's, under the guidance of a fellow named De Lorean , Pontiac built "muscle cars " like the GTO. However , Forbes magazine argues that GM' s structure made model differentiation difficult. It may hav e been efficient in the short run to combine assembly p lants , and desi g n i n g and eng ineering functions , but the results—look-alike products—were not efficient in the long run. To a rookie pitcher who comp lained when three pitches to Rogers Hornsby were called balls , the u m p ire replied: "Young man , when you pitch a strike , Mr. Hornsby will let you know . " The public has let GM know that it is not going to buy expensive cars that are , well , inexpressive. This is the truth of merchandizing in America: You can sell a cheap Scotch to persons for whom price is crucial , or expensive Scotch to persons for whom quality (or snobbery ) is crucial , but a medium-priced Scotch is harder to sell. And in automobiles , the hi g h profits are at the hi g h end of the scale. The head of the Cadillac division says that soon "You 'll be p lease to see that you can recognize our products at distances. " Meanwhile , the pleasure is in the condign punishment of GM' s design decision. That pleasure is alloyed with anger: This country can not stand such incompetence in its great corporations. it fe'altogether fitting that record low car-loan rates arrived jirst as the country was being hit on the head with another attention-grabbing number: the record-shattering one-month $ 18 billion trade deficit. There is so much more to that deficit than imported cars, but the automobile industry is the emblematic American industry . It is just beginning to compete with some competitors. To match Mercedes , BMW and Jaguar , Cadillac is bring ing out the Italian-designed Allante . At $50 ,000, Allante will cost $25,000 a seat. It is disgusting that people will pay so much for a hunk of metal to move them about , but people will , and it will be good for this country if more of such foolishly spent dollars stay at home , invested in American-made "expressive cars. An Info Desk recep explains With regards to Monday morning 's Squealer 's Corner, I would like to comment on the criticism levied against the Information Desk . As an employee of the above , I can understand and sympathize with the lack of service that sometimes is most obvious. But the Info Desk , run by people, not machines, falls prey to human error. As mere humans, we cannot predict the wants and needs of every individual who for desk comes to the information. We can only manage one request per employee at a time. As trivial as any given request may appear , it is as important to that person as your question , problem or need is to you. Therefore , try to practice patience w h i l e waiting. A second topic brought up was the fact that it appears as though the phone is more important than the individuals standing around the desk. There is a valid exp lanation for this apparent disregard . When the phone rings , the receptionist knows the caller needs service; whereas, the individuals stand ing around the desk , filing their nails , yelling to their friends , staring blankly into space, or simply hanging out , do not seem to desire attention. I realize there are those people who genuinely seek help, but it is hard to separate them from the above. When a visitor to the desk is looked upon with inquisitive eyes, often it is the case that the gaze returned is seemingly inattentive. Should it be the job of the receptionist to determine if this person wants something, because we can read nothing from their expression? As a visitor to the Information Desk , there are certain things you must keep in mind. First of all , we deal with hundreds of individuals a day and thousands of individual needs. It is difficult for the receptionist to rank the desires of so many individuals. We follow a policy of 'first come , first serve , ' which we believe to be the best in dealing with the public. Secondly, the proper way to obtain prompt service is to indicate that it is desired. It is important to convey this desire clearly so the receptionist knows what can he done to facilitate this request. It is my belief that the relations between the desk personnel and the students could be improved if the above items were commonly understood. In closing , I would only like to clarify my position with regards to Squealer 's Corner. M y goal in writing this letter is not to criticize Mr. Burian , but to merely create a better understand ing of the happenings at the Info Desk. In fact , I found his column about the Info Desk to be a rather whimsical tribute to the organized insanity that has become a daily part of our lives. Sincerely, Cindy D.

Iran is strateg ically vital because of its oil supplies, warmwater ports on the Persian Gulf and proximity to the Soviet Union. Iran 's political turbulence and the possibility that one of the exile groups could some day assume power justifies a U.S. strategy that proceeds on several tracks , accorking to several administration officials , and that view is shared by some former U.S. intelligence officers. "I have no knowledge that the Reagan administration is giving money to the Iranian exile groups , but I see no reason no,t to ' give them money and at . the same time extend a hand to Khomeini ," Stansfield Turner , CIA director in the Carter administration , said Monday . "Play ing both sides of the fence is not unusual , as long as they did not fund any exile group to the extent that they would try to overthrow the (Khomeini) government. There is not a prayer that they could do that ," Turner said. But one well-placed administration source said the CIA operations involving Iran were ad hoc and inconsistent, rather than being the result of a coherent U.S. strategy . "The U.S. does not have a policy but a series of actions , " said the source, who described the administration as ' 'groping in a maze" on the Iran issue. Despite the CIA efforts to curry favor with the Khomeini regime, Iran continued to encourage violence against American interests , sources noted . For example , intelligence shows that Iran directly supported the October 1983 bombing of the Marine Corps barracks in Beirut in which 241 U.S. servicemen were killed. This was less than a year after the CIA received a list of KGB agents in Iran from a Soviet defector and gave the names to the Khomeini regime. Sources said that the British intelligence service also participated in the operation that revealed the Soviet agents in Iran. Administration officials said that more recent overtures made under President Reagan to "moderates " in Tehran have stopped Iranian government sponsorship of terrorist actions against Americans. In January 1981, when President Reagan took office and 52 Americans returned after 444 days in captivity in Tehran , the CIA had already begun under President Carter a number of anti-Khomeini operations . One was designed to gather intelligence about Iran and support Iranian exiles , sources said ; another was a more ambitious plan that one senior source said was ^designed to inflict "punish- ment ' on the Khomeini regime , Kuzichkin defected to the which was holding the U.S. British in late 1982 and was hostages . debriefed later by the CIA , givUnder Reagan and his CIA ing the United States details of director , William J.

" Tudeh party. dinator at BU , the career options for people in this major are growing. "Medical technology majors are no longer just being hired in the hosp ita 1 or clinical setting, " Parsons says. In addition , Parsons says that jobs are available in such fields as biotechnology and genetic eng ineering. He says that career opprotunities are also available in areas such as the food industry and the pharmaceutical industry . "There is not a shortage of jobs , just a diversity of jobs , " Parsons says. Medical technologists are trained to analyze and interpret various kinds of data , or as Parsons puts it , "Med techs analyze your body. " Medical technology majors at BU partici pate in an open program , which means that anyone that meets the university requirements can enter the ,¦¦¦¦ *- ¦ program. Medical technology is also referred to as a "3 $ 1" program as well. This means that the student must participate in three years of classes on campus and one calendar year in a laboratory. "There is no guarantee that any student entering the program will get a position in a clinical lab ," Parsons says. Parsons says that the student must set this up with the hospital. The university only helps the student make the decision. To train a medical technologist during the clinical lab period , the cost ranges anywhere from $20,000 to $25,000. The student can pay as much as $3,000. "Medical technology majors are anong the hi ghest grade students in the biolog ical and allied health program ," Parsons says. He says that smdents must have at least a 3.0 cumulative average to stay competitive. The Program Board is currently working on the details for next semester 's scheduled events , including the fourth annual Winte r Fest. The first major event for next semester is the Winter Fest. From Feb. 3-8, movies, special events, an airband competition , casino games and a food fair will all be part of the activities to be held in the Kehr Union. Student organizations can set up food or game booth s during the week. On Feb. 27 and 28, the 25-hour dance marathon will take place. This Program Board service project is done for a different charity every year. Five hundred dollars in prizes will be given away . For those who do not wish to participate in the 25-hour marathon , there is a 10-hour mini marathon. The marathon features music by WBUQ and local bands as well as dance and costume contests. Reg istration forms will be available. The last weekend in April is Sibling 's/Children 's Weekend . This year it is also Children 's Weekend for the non-traditional students that have children. Also during that weekend , on April 25 the Renaissance Jamboree will be held. This combined university effort includes about 150 craftspeople and 100 nonprofit organizations sponsoring games and food. There will also be local and professional entertainment performing on the three stages downtown. March 1to April 4, 1987 When you break awaythis year, do it with style.

Neal makes Speeding on the highway results in Christmas in July by Ted Kistler Staff Writer Two summers ago, I purchased my first real "hot-rod , " a 1966 Mercury Cyclone G.T. It was a slick little number , bri ght red, with a racing stripe along the bottom. For two weeks my friend , Dick , and I worked on the car , improving its performance with every turn of the wrench. Finally, we felt the car was ready for its first test. We decided that we would take our girlfriends to Hershey Park , a 250-mile one-way tri p, to see how our work paid off. The agreed-upon day arrived , but in retrospect I think Dick and I should have spent the day working on the car , rather than driving it. The morning started out well enoug h. I foug ht with my girlfriend on the phone , for the Analysis 10 millionth time , and told her that she was no longer welcome to accompany us on the trip. I slammed down the receiver , paused for a moment , then picked up the receiver once again. I told Dick that despite the fight I still wanted to go ahead with the plans. We agreed that the car still needed testing. I believe any normal person in such a mood would have cancelled plans and stayed home, but I' ve never been accused of being a normal person. I picked up Dick , and we set out to get his girlfriend , Stacy . Along the way, the fuel pump drew dirt , clogging the fuel filter. The motor lost almost all power and nearl y shut off. A quick change of the filter sent us back on our way . I carried many such parts for emergencies because of the test nature of the tri p. We arrived at Stacy 's with no further problems , and so began our trek . About 20 minutes' into our journey , we came upon a long stretch of road with which we were very familiar. The road was a straight, divided, four lane highway , two lanes each way . Gentle crests rose every so often which blocked the view of the road ahead. We knew that the road was often patrolled by the State Police and knew the locations they chose to hide, or so we thought. Afte r passing a church and a barn , we thought we were in the clear. Partly to test the car , more to vent my anger , I began depressing the accelerator. The car quickl y gained speed . Dick and Stacy were sitting in the back seat , Dick peering over my shoulder. He began counting off the numbers as the speedometer circled around like the second hand of a clock. "90,95,100..., " Dick read, his voice trailing off as he assumed crash position behind the seat . As we broke the third and last crest, my foot quickly found the brake pedal . A patrol car was waiting for someone like me; sitting alongside the road just ahead , looking like St. Peter on judg ment day . The brakes strained under my frantic efforts to stop the car. We passed the patrol car rather awkwardly as the tires finally began to lock up. I stopped the car after a struggle, then noticed the officer pulling in behind me, ending my joyride. I rolled down my window, fully expecting the'heaviest fines Pennsylvania could impose. I thought of how such an excessive speed would strip me of my license. I watched as the officer approached . "Uh-oh!" said Dick in his typ icall y understated manner. I turned and looked up at the BU parking problem; a dead-end ? by Darcie Scheidt for the Voice There are some unhappy students on our campus. You may even know a couple. In fact , there is a good chance that you are one of the persons involved . These students are the ones driving and circling endlessly around the tri-level and hospita l parking lots. They are the ones who are repeatedly late for classes. And they are the ones yelling obscenities after discovering a $5 parking ticket on their windshield. Students have been in an uproar about insufficient parking areas all semester. However, what some may not realize is that this problem has been developing for years . Not only has the number of students attending Bloomsburg been increasing, but availibility of parking space has been steadily decreasing . Dorms , crosswalks, physical education practice fields and campus beautiflcation are among the reasons for decreasing space. Because of this , there is just not enough area on campus to build more parking facilities. It would be unfair to expect the physical education department to give up one of their fields. And think of how drab our campus would be without the creativity of the beautiflcation committee. Some alternate suggestions have been given to the BU Parking committee, a group consisting of members from CGA , SOAR , administration , faculty, staff and law enforcement. The most popular idea has been to build another tri-level. Despite being the only state school having even one tri-level , research into building a second garage has been done. Dr. Richard Alderfer , chairman of the parking committee , said that the main problem is money. "A garage proposal was made in 1983 , " Alderfe r said ,"and it would have cost an estimated $2.2 million. Students would have to pay $100 each year for one decal sticker , and who knows how many years it would take to pay off construction costs ," he added . Tim Keffer , CGA president , asked the parking committee about a shuttle bus to drive people back and forth from the lots on upper campus. Alderfer reported that for the busses , maintainance , fuel and staff , it would cost approximately $24 thousand per year. Students who drive would be required to pay a $5 parking fee each year. "I'd also hate to see a young girl have to walk up to Nelson at night , after shuttle hours ," Alderfer said. So if providing new parking spaces isn 't the answer, what is? Last summer the parking committee came up with what they felt were two fair solutions. The first was to allow only one decal for every vehicle operator. Section 601 in the "1986 Motor Vehicle Regulations" pamphlet , explains this restriction. This new rule was formed to prevent family members of Faculty /Staff , from using Faculty/Staff parking areas while visiting campus for classes, meetings and socializing. Many believe this is not fair to those Faculty/Staff who own several cars or need to use another automobile while one is in the garage for repairs. "I understand it may be an inconvenien ce," Alderfer said , "but fair is fair. " In addition , procedures have been established for emergencies. The second solution was to restrict student privileges. Dr. Robert Parrish , vice president of administration , and the parking committee came up with the idea of a one-mile perimeter encircling the campus; section 602 describes it. This perimeter means that students living within one mile of campus could not receive a parking decal . However , due to several complaints , this proposal was not implemented. "It seemed the perimeter would provide more parking space for commuting students from areas like Danville , Millville and Berwick," Alderfer said. Even though CGA Executive board members agreed that the perimeter would benefit commuters, they argued that other students were unfairl y represented. CGA felt their committee didn 't have any input since sections 601 and 602 were decided and voted upon during the summer. But Alderfer reported that several attempts to get people to This trust exists primaril y because both of them have serious relationshi ps with their boyfriends. Since I have no romantic interest (real or imagined) in them , I pose no threat of upsetting their proverbial applecarts. My friendship with them allows us the opportunity to communicate openly, as well as share feelings that are listened to and mutually respected. Friendship to me means having someone to complain to , depend on , and occasionally help out in a time of need. The problem I often face is the inability to maintain and continually progress a friendship , once the initial comraderie and rapport have been established. This is a complaint that I've heard from quite a variety of students, both male and female. It is this 'uncertainty ' of intentions which is the key stumbling block in the prevention of a possible lasting friendship . For example, if you meet someone in the library , and you begin talking to them and things seem to be going well, your emotions sometimes take over and future possibilities might begin going through your mind. But going along with your feel- ings puts you in a very vulnerable position , especially if you 're comfortable with another person at the time. You lend to close the door on someone new, simply because of the possible internal conflict that might result. You're afraid of being hurt , afraid of being rejected , afraid of losing what you currently have. While you 're inwardly confused (but outwardly sending mixed signals), the other person doesn't know how to read your reactions and is equally confused. During all this , you 're both dancing around the notion that you enjoy each other's company , because you 're afraid of being hurt , etc. This 'discommunication ', if you will, prevents true feelings from being openly discussed. The vicious cycle continues Unless one brave soul exposes his/her emotions and holds them up to the light for scrutiny . But we must hide our physical attraction towards somebody for fear of being rejected , and by hiding that attraction and interest we risk losing them altogether. The late Pete Ham of the group 'Badfinger' wrote . about these typical misfortunes frequently. A passage from 'Lonely You , Only You ' bears repeating. His words stay with me to this day as he asked in his most polite and inquisitive voice, "Excuse me. Is there any particular reason you were traveling at 113 miles per hour?" I retrieved my lower jaw from the floor of my car and stared dumbly at him for what seemed an eternity . "No sir ," I replied , "I'm sorry there 's not. " I was frustrated with my lack of words. He asked for my license and registration. I complied. "I have registered your speed on radar. Would you like to see it? " he asked. I opened my door and walked back to his car. Looking throug h the window , I saw a small black box illuminated with the numbers "1" , "1" , "3" . He asked /ne to return to my car. As I sat in the car , Dick commented that an advance in the motor timing could have given us an extra five to 10 miles per hour. I could not find it in myself to laugh. After what seemed an eternity, the officer retu rned. He handed my documents back to me along with my citation. I studied the paper and noticed that it read 83 miles per hour and a fine of $98.50. "83? ," I asked. "Nice car ," replied the officer. "Will it do any more? " he asked. I laughed aloud and said , "Only if I advanced the timing. " I quickl y signed the paper and received my copy. Afte r the required lecture on the rights to appeal , I told him there would be no contest from me. "Have a nice day, " said the officer ,"and Merry Christmas. " Though it was only July, I bid him the same. I started the car and we continued along our way , very sedately. We had an uneventful weekend , but on our way back home a 1969 Camaro SS passed us. Dick encouraged me to return the favor. I decided , however , that 55 was just ri ght fpr me. committee meetings were made last spring. "We had lots of notices printed in the Voice but the only time CGA or anyone showed up, was to debate the issue of the Navy parking lot. So last summer we made decisions on our own ," he said. There are six different colored decals or permits listed under section 600-General Provisions-ofthe regulation pamphlet. So far this semester , 3207 decals have been issued. They include Faculcommuting ty /Staff(916) , students or 21 years of age (2052), resident students with cars , needing 64 credits (125), students with motorcycles (34) , Alumni (15), and 65 freshman and sophomores with special privileges. It 's interesting to note that the number of decals issued (3207) exceeds the total number of parking spaces (2143) available. How is a mass of 2052 commuters expected to squeeze in the 332 spaces alloted? And 916 Faculty/Staff are provided with just 517 spaces , including upper and lower campuses. Visitor parking areas consist of 827 spaces, handicapped 18, dorm residents, 183, and Dean 's,6. It 's no wonder approximately 1000 tickets are given each month . In order to provide parking for all these people, a miracle must be performed. But unless someone comes up with a totally unique and fair solution , we will just have to settle for a little give and take from all sides. Do opposite sex friendships exist? Dave Burian The four years I've spent here in Bloomsburg have afforded me the opportunity to meet many new people and has also given me more than my fair share of friendships. But for reasons that will soon become apparent , these friendships are almost exclusively with members of my own gender. It is not that I am unable to create friendships with the female sex , but that communication of intentions and definitions of 'friendship ' are invariably blurred between the two species. It is easy to give my definition of 'friendshi p with women ' because I happen to live with two of them.

Along with an em- they were comfortably wide, had phasis on grooming and good snow cover and appeared to snowmaking, many trees have be groomed on a regular basis , *. -^ making them good fun for advanced intermediate skiers but not the hair-raising challenge Vermont is known for. During an earlier visit to Sugarbush , I had heard groups of teen-age boys bragging to one another about "skiing Castlerock , " reputedly the toughest trails on the mountain and among the toughest in the East. I had not dared try it then , but on this visit , afte r a decade more of skiing experience and with near-perfect conditions , I wanted to give it a try . The Castlerock lift , going almost to the top of 3,975-foot Lincoln Peak , is an old double chair that passes over a series of formidable slopes that appeared to be as much granite and ice as snow. At the top, our guide suggested that Middle Earth was the trail in the best condition for southern skiers like us , unaccustomed to real mountains and steep, narrow trails , and we set off , somewhat shakily. After we had made a series of fairly respectable turns down a narrow and heavily moguled stretch at the top without humiliating ourselves , our guide motioned for us to stop. To the left was a panorama of the Green Mountains and the river winding far below. To our right , a very steep drop. "This part is called the 'Jaws of Death,' " he said encouragingly and plunged on, disappearing around a steep turn. The rush of adrenaline caused by that remark must be what got us down the rest of Middle Earth with its sharp, steep turns and dips. We felt very proud of ourselves when we got to the bottom of the Castlerock lift , until a young woman skier shouted to our guide , "Did you groom Middle Earth today ? I've never seen it so flat ." Mad River Glen , your first glimpse tells you , is quite the opposite . On one side of Route 17 is a parking lot smaller than those serving the small ski areas in Pennsy lvania and Virg inia. On the other is a cluster of buildings , a nursery , the "base box " lodge and a ski shop. Only the bottom of three slopes is visible , with the higher parts obscured by trees and snow. Macho skiing is. the specialty at Mad River Glen, whose motto is "Ski it if you can. " On my first visit in 1975, I asked for the beginners' area and was directed to a daunting ly steep expanse known as the "practice slope," generally used to train slalom racers. Since then , a few concessions have been made to beginners and intermediates, most notably the area served by the Birdland chair where relatively wide and gentle trails have names like Lark , Loon, Wren and Robin. But mad River 's speciality is tough , nononsense skiing, such as the terrifying Chute and Liftline , a seemingly endless series of moguls stretching almost the entire length of the 2,000 foot antiquated single chairlift. Mad River Glen's owner, Betsy Pratt , who has resisted several efforts by Sugarbush to buy her out , is determined to preserve what she calls "our kind of skiing, " with natural snow , ungroomed slopes and minimal frills. Mad River 's "comfortable capacity " is 1,600 skiers , Pratt said , and when Vermont has one of its infamous midwinter thaws , Mad River simply has to close down. Its $20 lift ticket ($22 on weekends) is one of the best bargains in the East. The area -has no lodging of its own , but on Route 17 leading to it there are a number of country inns and motels. A large portion of Mad River Glen 's skiers have vacation homes in the valley or are members of the seven ski clubs with houses there. we consider Althoug h ourselves good skiers, and not averse to ' showing off at Ski Liberty or Massanutten, we were hard-pressed to outrshine anyone at Mad River Glen. The skiers there tended to be casually dressed college students , families packing huge picnic lunches and lotj of locals. We didn 't spot a single fashionably dressed ski bunny in front of the fireplace in the small bar at the base lodge.

Coach Roger Sanders' club posted a 12-5 dual match record last season and finished seventh in r the NCAA Division I Championships last spring . Veterans return at almost every weight for the Huskies, who enjoyed one of their best recruiting efforts ever. Bloomsburg is one of four Eastern Wrestling League members to appear among the pre-season top 20 teams. Fivetime defending EWL champion is rated second , while Clarion is tenth and West Virg inia is twentieth . The comp lete "Ameteur Wrestling News ' " pre-season poll is as follows: 1. Iowa 2.

That figure exceeds the 16,887 fans that attended the Huskies' five regular-season home contests a year ago. This season 's largest single game home crowd occcured on September 20 during the school's Parents' Day when 7,313 saw the bloomsburg-Lock Haven contest. That figure came just 170 people short of the Robert B. Redman Stadium record of 7,483 set on Homecoming Day in 1985. On the road , the Huskies, who were defending Pennsylvania Conference champions, also drew good crowds, playing in front of approximately 21,500 fans on five playing dates. Bloomsburg will host six home contests during the 1987 season as part of an eleven game slate. a) Five minutes into "The Lawrence Welk Show " b) About a week before your birthday. c) When you just want to teli them you miss them, and that you ate the last of Grandma 's chocolate-chip cookies this morning.

The consolation and championship contests are slated for the same times on Saturday . Chronister is entering his 16th season with a record of 265-138 with a roster that does not include a senior on the 13-member squad . Five players , all of whom started at some time a year ago , graduated from last year 's team which posted the school's 20thconsecutive winning season.

Well football fans , all I can say is I' m sorry as I slumped last week to an 8-6 mark . But who could have predicted that the Lions might actually beat the Eagles and the Bengals beat the Seahawks? Anyway , for the year , my record dipped to 79-46 for an overall percentage of .632. Week 12 , like last weekend , finds some more key matchups and also some good games between interdivision rivals. Watch for big matchups between the Jets and Miami and also Dallas and the Redskins. For those fans who like to see the upset special , watch the Saints once again stop Eric Dickerson and the Rams for the second time this year. And now , Week 12: L.A. Raiders 30 San Diego 21 The Raiders travel to San Diego where they will find another victory after last week s impressive win over a decent Cleveland team. The Chargers have played tough the last two weeks but will fall in the end. Washington 17 Dallas 7 The Redskins are playing their second tough game in six days, but will be up since they 're playing at home. They also will be remembering their loss to Dallas earlier in the season. Cleveland 21 Pittsburgh 13 This is a key division game for the Browns, and they will not let it slip away . I think the Steelers will probably flop for the rest of the year. New England 30 Buffalo 28 The Patriots are ridiculously listed as 13-point favorites against the Bills. This game will be much closer , and I wouldn 't be surprised to see an upset , even though I won 't predict one. Chicago 28 Green Bay 21 The Packers will make this game a lot closer than people think , but will fall to the Bears in the end . Watch for Doug Flutie to make an impressive impression on Chicago fans. N.Y. Giants 22 Denver 21 This is the hardest game of the week to pick. These are the two toug hest defensive teams in football , and both come equipped with potent offenses. I think the Denver offense is slightly better, but with the home-field advantage I must go with the Giants . Detroit 20 Tampa Bay 17 The Lions surprised everyone Dave Sauter last week against the Eagles, (including all three of us!). They should win their second consecutive game against the hapless Bucs. Are you happy Dr. Cole?? Houston 21 Indianapolis 13 In the battle of who gets Vinny Testaverde in the draft , the Colts improve their odds as the Oilers have no choice but to win. Cincinnati 27 Minnesota 24 The Bengals continue to be a mystery , beating the tough competition and losing against the weak . I'll give them the edge against the Vikings , very reluctantly. Kansas City 20 St. Louis 10 The Chiefs will bounce back against the Cardinals and keep close to the Broncos. The Cards can only look forward to the draft and next year. San Francisco 24 Atlanta 10 The Falcons are right in the middle of playing a string of quality football teams, including the Jets, Bears, and now the 49ers. Joe Montana and Dwight Clark should prov ide enough points for the 49ers to pull it out. New Orleans 14 Los Angeles 10 Yes, the Saints are going to upset the Rams once again as Eric Dickerson will be stopped again. Just like the first game, this will be a defensive struggle with New Orleans prevaling. Philadelphia 16 Seattle 14 Seattle can't score and the Eagles have a pretty tough defense when everybody plays tip to their potential . Plus , Philadelphia has a throwing QB in Cunningham against a pitiful Seahawk pass defense. N.Y. Jets 41 Miami 34 These two high offense/no defense teams meet for the second time of the year, this time in the Orange Bowl in Miami. The Jets, you recall , won the first game 51-45 in overtimerand you can expect another high-scoring affair this time . Ken O'Brien is the league 's top-rated quarterback and will outduel Dan Marino . JEFF COX: I'm starting to get a little worried. These 8-6 weeks are killers . Luckily, Dave didn 't have too much more luck , and Jamie is , well , you know . The season mark drops to a not so nice 82-44 as the percentage drops to an ugly .652. Well , my Vikings have a struggle on their hands. I know I'm starting to sound like a broken record , but this week the struggle gets a lot nicer. The Purple People Eaters must bounce back against the Bengals , while the Cowboys will continue their decline (sorry, a three-point victory over the Chargers just is not very impressive). Look for things to get very interesting. L.A. Raiders 31 Houston 17 Atlanta 20 San Francisco 21 Buffalo 21 New England 28 Washington 34 Dallas 14 N.Y.

Jets 35 Two Blooomsburg University football players have been recognized for their efforts in the Huskies ' season-ending 21-7 victory over Norfolk State last Saturday . Strong safety Brian Scriven was named the Eastern College Athletic Conference 's (ECAC) "Co-Defensive Player of the Week" along with Towson State's MArk Angle. Scriven ended his colleg iate play ing career by registering 12 tackles, including six unassisted. In addition , he was credited with two pass breakups and two interceptions. His first interception led to Bloomsburg 's first score of the afternoon. For the season , he made 68 tackles , recovered a fumble , forced two others , and had the two interceptions. He finished fourth on the team in total defensive points . Quarterback Jay DeDea was selected as the Pennsy lvania Conference 's "Eastern Division Player of the Week' ' and earned a berth on the ECAC Weekly Honor Roll. He comp leted 17 of 32 passes for 266 yards and one touchdown. DeDea also ran for another score. His scoring pass of 42 yards tied the score at 7-7 early in the second period and helped tight end Kevin Grande set the school' s all-time reception record with 133 receptions. Just five minutes later , DeDea 's sixyard touchdown run put Bloomsburg in front to stay . During the 1986 season , he completed 160 of 340 passes for 2255 yard s and 14 touchdowns. The Huskies , under first-year head coach Pete Adrian , finished the campaign with a record of 7-2-1. From the locker room In the spirit of the game by Mike Mullen Sports Editor As we draw closer to Thanksg iving , hi gh school football starts to heat up. Teams with the good records set their sights on the playoffs while teams without them look ahead to that big game against THEM. What makes high school football so exciting is the fact that sometimes those big games determine who makes the playoffs . This was such the case at a game I recently attended while in Trenton for the field hockey playoffs . It was a classic game with all the usual hype; It was homecoming, both teams were undefeated , the loser would most likely not make the playoffs , and last years game had been won on a questionable call by the official, making this game one of revenge and pride. Tn normal fashion the home team fell behind early as the "bad guys" scored first , and eventually held a 10-6 advantage with about five minutes to play . Standing on the sidelines , I overheard two players, Blain Berrian , defensive tackle , and Tony Freere , offensive end , talking. "Don 't tell any body, " Freere said , "especially the coach. " "If you can 't catch , don 't go in , " Berrian replied. Slightl y confused , I disregarded the conversation as idle talk among the second team players , as I used to do in my high school days. Then much to my surprise , the 'Don 't tell anybody , especially the coach, ' Freere said. I'f you can 't catch, don 't go in , ' Berrian replied. With fifty seconds left in the game, time was called and Freere was summoned into the game. A play was diagrammed and executed perfectly as the quarterback hit Freere in the end zone for the winning catch and a state playoff berth. Neither the winning team nor the 13-10 final score is reall y important. What made this game special was not the way it was played but by who it was played. This game was played by a group of young boy s who played football because they enjoyed it , not in exchange for money or scholarship. Yet these boys were not afraid to put forth effort when it was needed , nor were they afraid to play when they were less than 100 percent. Tony Freere , the young man who made the game winning catch , actually played the whole game with a broken hand. Still , he did not cringe from playing on that cold November night nor did he ask to be kept out of the game , thoug h having a reasonable excuse. Instead he kept alive the spirit of hi gh school football b y creating yet another legend to be relived before the two teams square off against each other next year. Whether he ever plays in college or not he 'll alway s be remembered for that cold night in Trenton when he did the insane . How many of us would do the same if given the chance? Unfortunately for football fans , all too few. Skiing , big or small? by Terri Shaw LA Times-Washington Post Service Vermont 's Mad River Valley is quintessential New England , dotted with white-steepled churches, cozy country inns and picturesque villages. But when it comes to skiing, the valley has a dual personality . Drive north on Route 100, a two-lane road that winds throug h the Green Mountains , and you 'll find Sugarbush , 16 lifts , state-ofthe-art snowmaking equipment , three base lod ges and miles of well-groomed slopes. Travel a few miles farther and you 'll get a different kind of skiing, four little snowmaking lift s , machinery , a single lodge and ungroomed slopes , the pride of Mad River Glen. The town areas are more than a study in contrasts ; they reflect a conflict that many ski areas are facing today : whether to expand , like Sugarbush has , to appeal to many kinds of vacationers, or to remain small , as Mad River Glen has , to give serious skiers the personal touch. by similar scores of thirteen to six. Freshman Mike Estes shot a 204 and Charlie Smith a 233 against Lincoln. Tony Dunn 's games of 227 , 182 and 226 gave him an oustanding 635 series but he was bettered by teammate Frank Cecconi who rolled a 237, 183 and a 225 to take high match series with a 645. . Cecconi bowled a 205 against Stocktown with Estes following with a 213 giving Smith hig h game with a 256. Sunday , the women lost to Penn St. fifteen and one-half to three and one-half while defeating Drexel University by a score of fourteen to five. The high game of the match went to BU's Van Horn with who rolled a 225. Against Drexel , Van Horn bowled a 195, 190 and a 195 to grab a match high series of 580. The men crushed Howard University , seventeen to two, and also downed Gallaudett by a score of fourteen to five. Three Bloomsburg bowlers rolled hig h series against Howard . Estes rolled a 190 , 226 and a 211 for a 627; Dunn rolled a 198, 211 and a 257 for a 666; and Smith bowled a 225, 217 and a 225 for a 667. Against Gallaudett , Smith rolled a match high series consisting of a 186, 233 and a 237 for a 656. Other BU high games included Dunn witha 208, Jeff Darrow with a 201 and Art Sweeney with a 257.
