Mix of problems push professor to suicide By Bill Giorgini Staff Writer Declining health, emotional distress and conflicts within the Bloomsburg University history department may have lead Hans Gunther, 60, to take his own life on Sept. 1. , James Sachetti, editor of the PressEnterprise and a student of Gunthcr 's in the early 1970's, received a letter from the dispondent Gunther stating "I was 60 years old on Nov. 21, and that feels too old. It's time for the invalid (Gunther was partiall y crippled by a stroke in 1977) to vacate the battlefield. " Sachetti said Gunther 's letter also told of conflicts within the history department. "But there arc problems in any department ," Sachctd said. "Not everybody gets along with everybody." Dr. James Sperry, chairman of the BU history department , said , "(Gunther) had a policy disagreement with the department." Dr. Arthur Lysiak , an associate professor of history at BU and one of Gunther 's associates said , "i found him to be a very loyal friend. " Lysiak also expanded on Gunther 's personality. "He was always honest ," he said. "The real tragedy is that no one got to know the real Han s Gundier." Lysiak added a conflict between Gunther and the department chairman did not exist. "(Gunther) and Sperry got along very well," he said. "The (Press-Enterprise) sort of indicated that they didn 't." Sperry said the most important factor was his health. "One of the things that should have come out but didn 't was that Gunther was going blind. " Sperry said, adding that Gunther had a terrible fear of being cooped up in a nursing home. Sperry said when Gunther felt it became too physically hard to go on he killed himself. "I think it was a calm , rational decision made over a long period of dme," Sperry added. Like Sperry, Lysiak said the primary reason for Gunther 's suicide was his health . "I think it all goes back to his first stroke. Physically, he recovered 95 percent. Mentally he was completely recovered, but emotionally he never recovered. He lost confidence in himself ." Dr. Ralph Smiley, history and mass communications professor at BU , said Gunther was separated from his famil y earlier in his life. "His family sent him out of Nazi Germany before the war," Smiley pointed out. "After the war, his famil y was living in (East) Germany, so he was a man without a country and a man wilhout a famil y. He was very alone. He was a man who lived for the old world and-regretlcd its passing." Smiley also said Gunther was dis- Hans Gunther, who leaves an open intressed by higher education .

"I think he intended BU students also commented on the wilh his suicide to make a point that he demise of Gunther. Lori Kark, a BU senior and secrewas upset with higher education." Smiley also believed that Sachetd tary of the history department, said, left out some information in the letter "He was a nice man, a very interesting man. He loved to tell stories - even regarding Gunther 's suicide. "I think its a question of jounalism when I was trying to get my work ethics," Smiley said. "When you send done." a letter to the editor sealed with your Robert Turk, a sophomore who had death, you definately mean for it to be Gunther for a class, said, "He was dedicated to the point where he could printed and it wasn 't.

Here's prised he I&ted as long as he did." Finance club working towards gaining national chartership The Finance Club of Bloomsburg University hopes to increase its membership and eventually obtain a national chartership. Drew Lotsis, president of the club, said, "We just want to make an awareness because it 's hard to compete with other schools who have established clubs." Lotsis said approxiamtely 70 people appeared for the club' s past meeting. "We didn 't have enough involvement in the club," Lotsis said. "We want more people to get involved." He added that the Finance Club is open to all majors. Lolsis said a committee is being planned for anyone interested in in- vesting money in low-risk stocks. "The committee will plan how the money is to be invested," he said. "The money then will be given back at the end of April." Lotsis added that a schedule of events is being prepared. On Oct. 15 the club plans to host two speakers, Bill Tolia of Focus magazine and Pete' Mercantelli of Price-Waterhouse, who will discuss the fiel d of finance. A trip to the New York Stock Exchange is also scheduled for Nov. 12 for all Finance Club members. Lotsis said anyone interested in joining the Finance Club can pay their $15-per-year dues in the Kehr Union Building on Sept. 21 and 22, from 11 a.m.-l p.m. Aquino fires aides by Mark Fineman L.A.

Kcmmcrcr Japan will offe r economic aid to U.S. to help decrease burden in Persian Gulf by Sam Jameson LA. Times-Washington Post Service Prime Minister Yasuhiro Nakasome will tell President Reagan in New York on Monday that Japan is prepared to make a financial contribution to lighten the American burden of providing Navy escorts to od tankers passing through the Persian gulf, the Foreign Ministry's spokeman said Thursday. Yoshifumi Matsuda told foreign correspondents that he is "confident" that Nakasone will express Japan 's "willingness to do something" on the basis of widespread support that he said exists among the Japanese public for aiding the U.S. effort to safeguard oil shipments from the strategic gulf. The prime minister, however, will not be able to tell Reagan how much aid Japan wUl provide, or specify in what form such assistance will be given, Matsuda added. A Foreign Ministry task force, Matsuda noted, began two weeks ago exporing ways in which Japan could assist the American effort; its work will not be ready for the meeting scheduled Monday between Nakasone and Reagan. "We believe we should do something to cooperate with other Western nations," Matsuda said. "We cannot take any military action whatsoever. So the logical consequence is financial assistance...." Matsuda's statement was the first official declaration that Japan will provide financial assistance for the U.S. patrol and escort activity in the Persian Gulf. Previously, Japanese officials had said only that the Foreign Ministry was considering the possibdity. It came four months after Japanese diplomats, on the eve of the Venice economic summit in June, ruled out any consideration of financial assistance unless some kind of U.N. organization were set up to protect shipping in the gulf. Japanese reluctance to get involved melted only after Britian, France, Italy, and the Netherlands announced plans to take part in the protection effort , leaving Japanwhich gets 60 percent of its oil from Persian Gulf producers- conspicuously absent from the assistance efforts . Although the U.S. government has not asked Japan for help through diplomatic channels, Ambassador Mike Mansfield , in a speech last Monday, publicly urged Japan to contribute in a non-military fashion to the protection of shipping in the gulf. Nakasone is expected to face a demand from Reagan that he resolve a bitter dispute over the failure of U.S. companies to win substantial contracts in the construction of a new $7 billion Osaka Airport. U.S. officials , it has been reported here, are considering lodging a formal complaint of unfair trade practices against Japan over the airport project If found to have discriminated against U.S. companies, Japan would be subject to retaliatory trade penalties. Last Wednesday, the prime minister instructed his transportation minister to come up with new measures to ensure equal Opportunity for U.S. construction companies to win airport contracts. Nakasome will be meeting Reagan for the 12th time in what has become a widely publicized first-name "RonYasu" relationship. It is likely to be their last while Nakasone is still in office. His term as president of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party expires Oct. 30, and, after a successor is chosen, he is expected to resign as prime minister to clear the way for Parliment, probably in early November, to elect the new ruling party chief as head of government. The prime minister , who arrived in New York on Saturday , is scheduled to deliver a speech to the U.N. Philippine President Corazon Aquino fired her two most trusted Cabinet aides last Thursday in a personall y painful move aimed at defusing widespread military unrest and resolving the nation 's morst political crisis since she took office 18 months ago. After three weeks of intense pressure from her most powerful political supporters following a bloody military revolt dial nearly drove her from power, the president flatl y announced on national television that she had accepted the resi gnations of her executive secretary, Joker Arroyo, and her special counsel, Teodoro Locsin Jr. __ The two men were "like family" to the president, one top aide said. Bodi ranked among the closest friends and advisers to Mrs. Aquino as well as to her late husband, Benigno Aquino Jr. Both served in her inner-most circle, first as key campaign strategists in her 1986 election bid to unseat Ferdinand E. Marcos and later as Cabinet aides so powerful that many Filipinos believed that they were actually the ones running the govenment. Just 12 hours before, Mrs. Aquino has quiedy accepted the resignation of her trusted appointments secretary, Narcisa Escaler. One official close to Mrs. Aquino commented Thursday, "This most be one of the worst weeks of Cory Aquino's life. She must feel so alone." In announcing what officials later said was the final installment of the president's much-heralded Cabinet restructuring, Mrs. Aquino said that Arroyo "made his resignation irrevocable...in hopes that this would bring peace and quiet to the government," and she praised the former street activist as "a man of proven courage." Mrs. Aquino, her expression strained, told the nation that she was "on top of the situation" and appealed to her 58 million countrymen not to "listen to this disinformation campaign," an apparent reference to the See page 3 Index Rushees and brothers alike respond to speeches made by presidents from each of the eight fraternities at the All President's Talk photo by TJ.

Robert Norton, Dean of Student Life, Dr. Gerrold Griffis , vice-president for Student Life, and Lori Barsnes, the greek advisor,were pres- ent to discuss the new hazing policy and its 27 points with students from 4 fraternities and sororities. I.F.C. President Jeff Smith said the group openly discussed the new policy and spent quite a long time on some of the new policy 's points. Smith added, "We had to sit down with the administration and discuss our likes and dislikes of the policy...Change is difficult and we are trying to reach some common ground; a policy that does the most for the greek system and the administration..." Alterations made in the policy must be reviewed by university legal counsel before they can be changed. The IFC and ISC committees, along with the admistrators, will meet again on Friday, Sept. 25, to further discuss the hazing policy and possible changes.

Bork is the Supreme Court nominee chosen by Ronald Reagan to replace Justice Lewis Powell , who retired this summer. As far as being qualified for the job as a Supreme Court justice , few can compare with Justice Bork. He served for 15 years as professor of law at Yale. He served briefl y as solicitor genera l in the Nixon Administration where he first caught the public eye by firing special prosecu tor Archibald Cdx. When Cox asked the White House for the infamous 'tapes', Nixon ordered his Attorney General to lire him. The Attorney General as well as the 'Deputy ' General quit , leaving the job to Bork , who carried it out. In 198 1 he was nominated by Reagan to the prestigious Court of Appeals. The American Bar Association gave him their best rating, 'exceptionally well qualified. ' Joe Bidcn , who was on the Judiciary Committee in 198 1, voted for Bork and even went so far as to say Bork was qualified for the Supreme Court. As a justice on the Court of Appeals , never once was one of his court opinions overturned by the Supreme Court. Senator Ted Kennedy, sinking to new depths of ignorance, has been maliciously attacking Bork since he was nominated. In a major turn around , Joe Bidcn , the Judiciary Chairman , has shot down any hopes of display ing presidential character by saying he now opposes Bork lor the Court , even thoug h Bidcn was quoted saying exactl y the opposite six years ago. And to think people were horrified to hear Oil ic North lie. The AFL-CIO, NAACP, ACLU , NOW and every other liberal group with an acronym has been spending millions to stop Bork. The reasoning for this is about as typical as you can jict. Bork is too right-wing and on it goes. For those, however, who know about Justice Bork and his legal as well as philosophical beliefs , it is quite obvious wh y some people (liberals) arc so adamentl y opposed lo die Bork nomination . Jusicc Bork believes the duty of the legislature on the federa l and state level is to make laws and enforc e those laws as laid out by our Constitution. The members of the Supreme Court have not been elected by die people. Thus they do not have the right to impose their will on the people. You mi ght think that it is not With credentials like these you such an outlandish opinion , but this would think Justice Bork would have concept of 'judicial restraint' is exlittle problem gelling approved by the actl y whal the Left-wing in America is afraid of , not to mention many DemoSenate for die Supreme Court.

The Roe vs. Wade" case established abortion as the law of the land despite the fact that in. 1973 thirty one states had enacted laws making abortion a crime. Other court cases have allowed for the banning of religious prayer in the classroom , the banning of the death penally. The court likewise expanded the rights of criminals and created its own laws in regard to affirmative action as well as new interpretations of anti-trust law. The result of this has been an unjust usurpation of legislative power by the Judicial branch. This is precisely the point addressed by Justice Bork over his judicial career. Despite the pathetic propaganda and blatan t distortions of truth from the Left , Justice Bork is not out to force women into "back alley abortions" or "segregate" minorities as the by Dave Ferris intellectually comatose Kenned y Staff Troublemaker State and federal law requires that siaied.

And what is the product of such a concentrated gathering of intelligcncia? A well organized educational system? A well structured and defined program? A "utopian " educational dreamland? Not cxacdy. Usuall y il leans more towards what I would call "premed i tated mass confusion ", as I' m sure most students would agree. But , what I wish to tell all my fellow "Buppies " is, we are not alone! I' ve heard a lot of talk about a parking problem here, but when compared to the University Park campus of Penn State, this is parking heaven. I worked as a disk jockey in Suite College for almost a year , and wilh its 270+ buildings, a multitude of on-campus roads, tiny parking lots (some accomidate onl y three cars), 30,000 students , and 16,000 employees , the PSU campus is a parking holocaust. This fact was well displayed in the 1985 Homecoming parade held there. The theme was "Penn State: You 'll Find It Here , and die winning float was decorated with a Pink Panther in a car and a sign board that read , "Penn Stale: You 'll Find It Here , If you find a place to park". And if you were one of the many to be angered by the removal of the commuter parking by Navy Hall (when do the McCormick spots go? Next summer?), then listen to this. After the summer of 1986, students returned lo find that all the mid-campus tennis courts had been paved over for "faculty parking only ". This meant that six of die eleven on-campus courts, over 50% of diem , were removed from "student recreation area" to "faculty onl y parking ". The administration justi fied diis by stating that die courts were "too expensive to repair ". Of course, when you let them fall apart the way they did , it becomes easy for dial situation to arise. But , there is at least one diing PSU' s Main Campus has over BU , no hills! But , then again , I don 't think the BU hill is thai bad. Those who find it too much for them had better not visit Mansfield University. I spent some time there one summer, and all the dorms are located at the bottom of what is called Heart Attack Hill . And il earns its name every day, since the cafeteria , classrooms, gymnasium , and all other non-dormitory buildings are on top of the hill. I also had the distinct pleasure of trudg ing up to the "Highacres" campus of PSU al Hazleton for two semesters, and if you know what kind of weather Hazleton has in the winter , you can sympathize with the students there. If you ever do get to slog up the slopes of Highacres someday, don 't forget to walk up by the Athletic Building where you can wipe the snow off the marker that stands at the highest point (the elevation type) in Pennsylvania. But , I mustadmit , BU outdoes them all with its outstandingly misguided , ill-conceived , problematic, time consuming, pain-in-the-back-of-myfront registration proceedures. Even To the Editor: I suppose its just one of those things that I manage to get myself into. After a few UGLY incidents with The Voice and my journalism class last semester, I swore that I would never endure it again. I would stick to the world of fiction , that I was so fond of. I never saw it coming. It was almost as if God himself was calling me as I walked across the campus. It was all very proper. "Douglas Rapson . Mr. Rapson , I need to talk to you!" With a flash of red hair and a fluster that is only done justice by her intelligent nature, Lisa Cellini came roaring down the pavement. I never thought I would hear the day. SHE needed to talk to ME. You see. I had written a farcical paper (NO, not Another Voice) which had a rather comical piece about the crimson-locked editor. She found il rather good and decided that I was going to write for The Voice. To use the term 'female Clark Kent' may seem a bit corny. However, as this very attractive strawberry blond stared down over her spectacles, I found myself weakening. It was looking like trouble, sports fans. Lisa is rather attractive, in her own way, and as she continued to extol my virtues as a writer, pushing her glasses up every now and then , I found myself reasoning. "You know ," I thought, "it wasn't really all THAT bad. I could write an occasional piece without dealing with all of the junk that I had to last year." "...and that 's why you should write A let her hair grow long. I cut off my beard , she kept her hair short. An insi gnifican t detail , but indicative of our relationship. When she said she thought perhaps we shouldn 't see each odicr any more, I said , "Yup, I think you 're right." Bad move on my part. I had been fortunate in this particular situation. Although I was very fond of the girl , we had not been involved long enough for me to develop the hcad-over-hecls, lost-inihe-clouds sort of love. I broke off the relationshi p with no real emotional loss, while she was probably badly hurl. I should have fei gned remorse and extreme sorrow, if only for her self-esteem. Try not to be logical in your relationships. I used to date a Vulcan woman , and it was terrible. She snored tclepalhicall y. She kept knocking me unconscious whenever she tried to give me a shoulder rub. Worst of all , she won all the fights because she could argue in more languages than I could. She had the loveliest ears, though... It never would have worked out. She was angry because I achieved Kolinahr , the Vulcan symbol of total and complete logic, before she did. I got mine through a correspondence course. She never forgave me for that. Try not to insult or embarrass your mate in public. If she mispronounces Croalobaltislavonia or uses the salad fork to feed the cat, pretend not to notice. When you get home, you can have a loud argument about the incident. Otherwise, your neighbors will not know that you are romantically involved. Always find something nice to say about your partner 's appearance. I have a bad habit of saying nothing at all , even though I usuall y notice the slightest changes. For example, women like to come home with a new New pledg ing rules hair style from time to time. Since I approve of the new look about half the time and am repulsed the other half, I say nothing at all in the hopes that she'll think I didn 't notice. Thatway, I don 't have to tell her that she looks like a gangrenous floormop. This leads to a rather tricky situati on. I can 't say something like, "Gee, dear, you looked really nice yesterday," or, "Well , I see the hairsty les have taken a turn for the worst again." Not unless I want leftovers for a month. How do you tactfull y inform your main squeeze that she looks really awful? You don 't. You wait until her hair grows back , compliment her abundantly on her nice new long hair, and casually comment that Victoria Principal looks much better now that she's grown her hair long. The last piece of advice I have may seem odd, but it can mean the difference between a successful relationship that lasts a lifetime and a fortyyears war: pay attention to the little things. When she hints that it might be better for dirty socks to go in the hamper instead of on the floor, she means that you 're irritating the heck out of her. Make the attempt to be more tidy, it may extend your life extpectancy. Again, I realize that you will probably read this column , chuckle a bit, forget the whole thing and make the same mistakes two years from now. I know that. However, I would be reticent in my duties as the Staff Troublemaker and overall father figure if I neglected to pass along the fruits of my experience. Also, don 't make the mistake of thinking these things don 't apply to you. Male or female , you slid have to take the other person's feelings into account. We're not that different. Oh, one more thing. Take turns deciding which planet to visit for the holidays.

Richard Dreyfuss narrates the special day of that summer when the four adventurous boys hiked along the railroad tracks to find the body of a peer hit by a train. The significance of the story lies not only in the search for the body, but in their search for maturity . Tlje journey is an accurate representation of the joys and pains of pre-teens. They smoke, curse, and play cards - thing most everyone can relate to their own childhood. But these boys had problems, too. Gordie (portrayed by Wil Wheaton) is unable to gain any attention from his parents since the death of his popular brother. His literary talents are recognized only by his friend Chris (River Phoenix), who, coming from a family with a bad reputation, wants only to be given a fair chance, something he has never had. Teddy (played by Corey Feldman) is struggling to reconcile his feelings for his institutionalized father, while Vern (Jerry O'Connell) is just looking for somewhere to fit in. The contrast of these feelings provide for a majority of the action. Under the direction of Rob Reiner, StandBy Me enthusiastically portrays the four youngsters growing up. Reiner creates the atmosphere by the use of music, language and scenery of the 50's. Stand By Me uses a perfect combination of comedy and drama, leaving the viewer with warm feelings and recollections of his own past. This film is a must, you won't be disappointed .

South A f rican apartheid laws I'hoto by Jim LocU Commission suggests changes by William Claiborne L.A. Times-Washington Post Service A presidential commission Thursday recommended significant but cautious changes in apartheid laws that rigidly segregate residential areas in South Africa by race, proposing that communities be given the local option to open themselves to all races if diere is a consensus to do so. The recommendations prepared over three years by a constitutional committee of the advisory President 's Council provide numerous doors that can still be shut on blacks seeking to move into white areas, virtually guarenteeing that most of South Africa will remain racially segregated. But if approved by the government and Parliment, the proposed changes to the 1953 Group Area Act would for the first time remove statutory barriers to housing integration and make possible non-racial voting on die local level and even integrated schools if mixed communities wanted it. The commission acknowledged that the practical effect of the proposed reforms would probabl y be to open up affluent, all-white suburbs to those non-whites who can afford them , while blue-collar communities are likely lo exercise the option to remain racially segregated. The proposal s would also integrate all business districts in South Africa and scrap the 34-year-old apartheid law that designates segregated facilities, such as beaches, on a nationwide basis. However, local governments and the owners of privately owned public facilities would be allowed to discriminate by race. Initial reaction by leaders of South Africa 's 85 percent non-white majority was critical , and was accompanied by demands that the Group Areas Act be thrown out in its entirety . Only one of the four non-whites on the 17-member constitutional committee, T.L. Gounden , an Indian , signed the 150-page report , and that was with the notation that he opposes the principle of the Group Areas Act but believes that the recommandations will lead to its repeal. The chairman of the committee, Andries Oosthuizen, said in a briefing of reporters that the underlying principle of the proposals was that no community should be intregrated against the will of its residents. But at the same time, he said, neighborhoods that want to change their character through intregation should not be barred statutorily from doing so. Oosthuizen said, "You need to have an appreciation for a historic situation that has developed over the centuries. By totally uprooting this immediately, I think you 're looking for trouble and insecurity." President Pieter W. Botha has repeatedly declared his support for segregated communities and schools as guarantees of cultural values. A statement released by the state Bureau for Information on behalf of . his office said the Group Areas Act, like any other law , is subject to possible amendment, and that while the govenment stands behind the principle that group rights must be protected , "it must also be possible to make provision for those who prefer a different lifestyle." Government sources noted that Botha last year held up the release of a previous draft of the report because it did not deal adequately with the implications for voting rights in integrated communities. The sources lefl the impression that Thursday 's recommendations would not have been released if there had been strong objections by Botha and his Cabinet. Oosthuizen told reporters that once the recommendations are approved by the grovernment , they could go into effect within six months. The proposal s provide two ways that blacks , those of mixed-race known as Coloreds, and Indians can move out of their designated residential areas inio other communities. An indivdual black , for example, could apply for what in effec t would be a zoning variance would be used , including petitions , thc .hearing of the views of the residents and , in some cases, referendum. Based on consensus of the community , the local govenment would decide whether to gran t permission. j | r ANNOUNCING I Homecoming registration forms doeHomecoming The deadline for Sweetheart registration is Wednesday, Sept. 23, at 4 p.m. Registration forms must be submitted to the Information Desk in the Union along with the S9.00 registration fee .

Heck , Pontiac didn 't even make enough of them to fill the orders in tiic first two years of production. It 's just that Ponti ac decided to make an already successful mixture of a big motor in a small (by '66 standards) , stylish car better. The Tiger Car was tamed. Not domesticated, just tam ed. The GTO was finall y given its own identity in '66. No longer was the GTO an option on the LcMans order form , but a GTO.

And what to my wondering eyes should appear but a joll y Santa wearing industrial-strength long underwear in a polyfiber snowstorm. I had to pause and consider the date. September 13. Maybe it 's just me, but I thought Christmas came in December. Did I miss something? Have the leaves changed color behind my back? Autumn has barely begun , and Santa is furiously circling overhead in a sleigh. Oh, woe are we! Chalie Brown said it would happen. One day we 'd be looking for a Halloween mask in October, and we'd get lost in a forest of nonflammable, artificial Christmas trees. The dreaded curse of holiday commercialization has finally struck full force. This has not been limited to Christmas alone, unfortunate ly. In the middle of August , a local store actual ly displayed Halloween items. I laughed along with the storcgirl who was setting up the display. Picking up a felt 'bat beenic', I asked , "Don't you think it 's a little early to be pulling out diis stuff?" She just chuckled and said ,"I don 't understand it either. Believe me, this was not my idea." You bet. Only corporate minds could think of something as ingenious as a yearround holiday shopping spree, leaving clerks to deal with hecklers like me without a nearby holiday with which to defend themselves. Is it possible mat the corporate world, that nebulous, headless horseman which holds the reins of our consumerism in its hands, wants us to consider each holiday a spendfest? How devious. Guess they thought we'd never figure it out. Knowing the truth doesn't defend us much , though. Imagine getting back to basics and eschewing the gifts , candy, etc. that substantiate so many of our holidays. "Merry Christmas, Jennifer. As my best friend , I' ve decided to give you nodiing as a gift. I hope you like it.' Wrong answer. Perhaps the best way lo defend ourselves from this consistent consumer barrage is to take each holiday in moderation. So what if Santa tries to promote bikini underwear in a summer issue olPeople magazine? Ignore it. Be conscious of it's presence, but ignore it. Because contrary to corporate belief , you do know what 's going on. And you know Santa can 't fit into bikinis anyway. by Missi Menapace Staff Writer "I love it," "very friendl y people," and "awsome parties" were representative responses when freshmen were asked " How do you like B.U so far?

The GTO was a master stroke of marketing. In the beginning, it had plenty of power and a plethora of performance/appearance gimmicks. In '66, though , the Goat grew up.

In response, Weinberger Thursday announced establishment of a Task Force on Women in the Military to review current policies and to recommend changes.

He said that while Zinn 's status as a juvenile is a factor in the case, the government nevertheless viewed this, as a "very serious violation." A 17-year-old Chicago high school student using a personal computer in his bedroom broke into AT&T computer systems around the country, stole $1 million worth of sophisticated software and was "on the verge" of being able to disrupt the company's Karen Plant , a lawyer for Zinn , said telephone network, according to fed- Thursday that the youth "categorieral prosecutors and phone company cally denies doing anything that he officials. should not have been doing. I can The youth also appears to have gained access to AT&T computers at two military bases: the NATO Maintenance and Supply Headquarters in Burlington, N.C., and Robins Air Force Base in Georgia, an Air Force logistics command center, acording to prosecutors. The computers did not store classified or sensitive material , they said. The Chicago Tribune reported that records of long-distance phone calls from the youth's phone showed that attempts were made to gain access to computers at the accounts payable department of The Washington Post, a hospital in South Bend, Ind., and computers in Columbus, Ohio, Rye, N.Y., and Pipe Creek, Tex. An AT&T spokesman said that the incident was "certainly, one of the more serious" cases of unauthorized computer access that the telecommunications firm has yet encountered. "We view this kind of Yuppie vandalism that is quite costly to us," said Burke Stinson, an AT&T spokesman. According to Stinson and a federal prosecutor in Chicago, AT&T security officials first discovered late April that an unidentified outsider has broken into some of its computers. Following up on information supplied by the company, a team of agents from the Secret Service, the FBI and the Defense Criminal Investigative Service obtained a search warrant Sept. 4 and raided the north side Chicago home of Herbert Zinn. Among the material seized from Zinn's bedroom were three personal computers, an AT&T 7300 and two Ataris, as well as computer discs containing copies of software he had transferred into his computers. The case was first reported in Thursday 's Chicago Tribune. Assistant U.S. attorney William Cook said Thursday that his office is evaluating whether to prosecute Zinn assure you that my client had absolutely no sinister motives in terms of stealing property . ...Right now , we're very much in the dark as to what this is all about." According to Cook, Zinn had used a "computer hacker 's billboard" which distributes the phone numbers and access codes of various computer systems - to help break into AT&T' s Bell Labs computers in Naperville, III., and New Jersey. Operating under the code name of "Shadow Hawk," Zinn then transferred sophisticated Bell Labs software, including "artificial intelligence" programs, lo his personal computer, Cook said. Bell Labs has valued the software at about $1 million , he said. Cook, citing an affidavit filed by a Secret Service agent, also said that Zinn was close to tapping into the "internal operations of the telephone system itself," including AT&T's central switching system. "He was knocking on the door to being able to gain the kind of access that would have allowed him to disrupt the (telephone) system," said Cook. "He was on the verge of being able to alter, man ipulate or halt the telephone system." But Stinson said Zinn could not have created nationwide havoc with the phone system. Nevertheless, several persons familiar with the case Thursday said the firoqram ] K.hr umo" —— ¦— Let Us E n t e r t a i n You |_?r>4y This Week 's Film : "Stand By Me " TUeS incident embarrassed AT&T and showed potentially serious lapses in its security.

The Panthers were the first to score when , at the 6:34 mark of the first quarter , Jamie Gutshall ran it in from the four yard line. Tom Pursel converted the extra point and the Panthers led 7-0. Late in the first quarter, the Panthers lost a fumble deep in their own territory. The Defenders were quick to capitalize on Bloomsburg 's mistake and used it to set up a three yard touchdown run by Chris Higgins . The extra point was good and the score was deadlocked at 7-7. For the next two quarters both teams seemed to be battling the elements as much as each other because neither team could hold onto the football. Finally, with 10:24 left to play , Warrior Run 's quarterback comp leted a short pass that turned into a 80 yard run after the catch by split end Dan Fleegor. John Brumbaugh s kick was no good and the score was 13-7 Warrior Run. From there no other points were scored with the Defender defense. living up to their name by stopping Bloomsburg twice inside the ten to preserve the victory. With the victory, Warrior Run earns a conference win. The loss dropped Bloomsburg to 0-1 in the Central Susquehanna Conference (CSC) and 1-2 overall. It was the second straight loss by the Panthers who will be playing at home against Lewisburg next week.

It cost them one national championship in the early seventies and nearly cost them a second last year. I am talking about the infamous "Penn State schedule." When I read what sportswriters say about the teams that Penn State has to play I wonder why they don't go undefeated every year. It seems, according to the sportswriters, that Penn State plays teams like Holy Cross every week, and at Beaver Stadium no less. Nope, sorry. Real Penn State fans know that their team plays quality teams every year. Sure, they play Bowling Green and Cincinatti , but they also play Alabama, Temple, Syracuse, Boston College, Pitt and Notre Dame. Everyone snickers when you say, Temple.' But they just stunned Pittsburgh 24-21 this past weekend, so they must be for real. Pittsburgh, you ask? Yes, Pitt is alive and kicking and back to the form that gave them a national title in 1976. They were ranked 16th before falling to Temple. Syracuse is no slouch and has been known to knock some big guys ontheir duffs if taken too lighdy. As for Notre Dame, if people aren't careful, weli let's just say I won't be the least bit surprised if the Fightin ' Irish play in a major bowl this coming January one with the outcome deciding the national championship. Without even trying I named three top 20 teams that Penn State has to play, and another that is close. Besides, who said that you measure a shcedule by how many top 20 teams you play? How many does Nebraska play? Don't you get a little tired of hearing the scores come rolling in on television? "...and at Nebraska today, the comhuskers defeated Colorado 54-6..." When do you think that a team like Colorado will ever make a serious run at the national title? The conference title? The top 20, maybe? Let's get real, everybody schedules easy teams for some home games just to give the fans something to cheeer about. When was the last time that you heard of Oklahoma scheduling Miami for their Homecoming? It just doesn't happen (except in Bloomsburg, we scheduled Millersville, figure that out). What bothers me is the fact that no one ever complains about Alabama's schedule or Auburn's schedule, only Penn State s. Maybe the reason why is because Alabama and Auburn have bad years every now and then while Penn State keeps on winning and winning. They are 25-2 over their last 27 games. How many teams can say that they had the chance to play for the national title two years in a row? Not many. Maybe what gets folks mad is the fact that Joe Paterno wins without cheating. Have you ever heard rumors of an NCAA investigation of PSU? You never will. My guess is that people don't object to the schedule but rather to the fact that Paterno refuse to run up the score. Everyone at State College knows why though. When PSU wins they ring a victory bell, you guessed it, as many times as they scored. Would you like to hear Carver go off 41 times? Neither would Joe. Gilbert lost his first round match in "C" flighjt. The "D" fli ght matches saw a repeat of C's as Jay Pheasan t won both his matches to make the finals , but Scott Glassford lost his first round match to give Bloomsburg a 12-2 mark in singles competi tion. The doubles matches were equall y successful for the Huskies. The number one team of Lamy and Milner won the first round of their doubles competition. The only loss suffered by BU in doubles was when the Huskies' number two team of Billone and Lupinacci went down in the first round. The two other doubles teams, Quigley and Glassford and Pheasant and Gilbert both won their doubles matches.

The Huskies kept the Eagles on the run with a constant drive to the goal line. The first half was the Huskies' most productive with Curtis Still and Tom Martin giving the Huskies their first two scores. Jay Dedea had a great first half with Still as his favorite target and moving the team downf ield on 5 completions for 121 yards, giving Bloomsburg their first touchdown. Lock Haven tried to keep on top of things, but it only made the BU defense thirster. The only big threat to the Huskies was when LHU drove downficld from thcirown 37 yard line to the Husky 20 where Dyro ff (LHU) tried a field goal and missed. It took the Huskies 3 plays after the ball changed hands to score another touchdown when Dedea threw an 8 yard pass to Martin for anotlier Bloom score. Mingrone went for the extra point , but it wasn 't good and that left the Huskies on top at the end of the first hal f with a lead of 19-0. LHU managed to get good field position at the begining of die second hal f and six plays later scored a touchdown when Chavis(LHU) held onto the ball and sucecded in scoring.

Tom Kuntzleman took fifth place only one second behind the fourth place finisher and only two seconds behind the third place man. Mark Elsasser finished in sixth place only three seconds off of Kuntzleman 's pace. The Huskies, who only have five runners, were mainly outmanned by the other teams more than being outrun. Larry Meckes (49th) was Bloomsburg's third runner , Burt Hindman (74) was fourth and Ed Andrewlevich (76) was fifth. John Mooney from University of Pitt-Bradford was the overall winner of the 4.8 mile race in a time of 25:02. The overall team winner was Kutztown with a score of 81.

The Huskies placed three runners in the top five and five in the top nine to win the meet going away. Bisset finished second overall in the race, getting outrun by Debbie Valansey of Lock Haven by only four seconds. Right behind Bisset, in fourth place, was freshman Pam Mitchell and, in fifth place, sophomore Laurie Alexander.

By going back to the open cockpit, it should help me be more aggresive at the start. "It did feel strange, though, after being in an envelope all season to suddenly be out there with the wind and the spray in my face again. At first it was a little unnerving, but it didn 't take long to get the old feel back." A protective cab has been credited with saving the life of driver Steve Reynolds, who crashed violently when his Cellular One flipped during a race last July on the July on the Ohio River. Reynolds also had a similar accident while testing, and Kropfeld flip ped and landed upside down during a preseason test on Lake Washington. A major problem facing Hanover and Kropfeld is that the Mission Bay course here is salt water, which is anathema to turbines. Last year, neither Miller American nor Miss Budweiser finished the race. The salt built up on the turbine blades and caused overheating. "The problem point is running at low speed from the dock, before the boat gets up to racing speeds," Hanauer explained, "all the turbine boat owners are working on ways tofilter out most of the salt before it reaches the blades."
