BU raises capital Bloomsburg University and the BU Foundation raised a total of $777,879 for the 1987 calendar year, according to Anthony Ianicro, director of development. "Funds of over three-quarter million dollars reflect the hard work of a number of people throughout the year," Ianicro said. "The volunteers are to be congratulated for their efforts, and we are very appreciative of all those who responded to their appeals." BU President Harry Ausprich noted the 1987 amount of funds raised increased $50,000 over the previous year's total. "It's a tremendous help in support of the academic, cultural and athletic activities that we incorporate in the yearly planning at the university.

The survey consisted of ten questions about the food , facility, and staff. It was distributed on the Thursday and Friday before finals, a factor which could have had some bearing on the negative results. According to Ail, the M.W. Wood Company, which runs the service, usually receives somewhere around 80 percent positive feedback on similar surveys of other facilities. The results of Ail's survey were about 63 percent positive. "I'm commitled to making the best institutional food service possible," Ail said. "I won 't hide the results" of this survey.

FBI files reveal liberal investigative rights BU greets students the Sisters of Mercy Generalate in Silver Spring, Md. The Cincinnati office probed the Friends Religious Society, the Maryknoll Sisters and the Church of the Brothers. FBI officials in El Paso reported that, when they made "a pretext telephone call" to a local number, "a Hispanic female answered, 'Catholic Conference.'" Several FBI offices found no evidence of criminal activity but evidently were spurred by Webster's office. FBI officials in Phoenix reported in 1983 that they had looked into the Tucson Committee for Human Rights in Latin America, a nonviolent organization ," and. concluded that "it does not appear that further investigation is warranted." But Webster's office ordered them to continue the probe, saying the human rights committee "may be a front organization for the CISPES." When Sen. Robert W. Kasten Jr., R-Wis., asked the FBI's Milwaukee office why it was investigating CISPES, he was curdy referred to the Washington headquarters. Referring to numerous inquiries about that probe from the media, the Milwaukee office reported, "All requests for information have been answered with a 'no comment.' " The extent of the infiltration of CISPES is suggested by an FBI report on the finances of the 250member chapter in Chicago. "At the last door-to-door canvassing campaign, 29 (Chicago) CISPES members collected $2,117.53," it said. The documents also show several instances in which FBI agents copied license-plate numbers of individual protesters attending public rallies. The Houston office went a step further, distributing 104 photographs of participants in a 1985 march by the Texas April Mobilization for Peace, Justice and Jobs. The heaviest barrage of apparendy unsupported assertions about CISPES came from the Pittsburgh office, which in 1984 asked Webster's office to approve placement of an undercover agent inside the local chapter. "The CISPES leadership coverUy furnishes ... funds and materials lo the guerrillas in El Salvador, assists in the maintenance of camps in the U.S. for the rehabilitation and reindoctrination of Salvadoran guerrillas ... either to be returned to the fighting in El Salvador or to remain in the U.S. to establish guerrilla cells," Pittsburgh reported. The plan was vetoed in Washington on grounds that the proposed undercover agent had transferred out of Pittsburgh. "As targeted group closely scrutinizes a newly introduced member s political beliefs, background and personality, Pittsburgh has no suitable replacement currently available," Webster's office said. Hugh Byrne, CISPES political director in Washingion , called the allegations about training guerrillas "ludicrous" and "nonsense." As for the widespread surveillance, he said, "We feel outraged. We feel violated. You 'd think they would have something better to do with their time and money than investigating an organization that was merely dissenting from the administration 's policies."

Instead of packing up our Macs and fleeing to some abandoned building downtown , The Voice staff has chosen to rcjnain in our designated spot in the bowels of the Union. Last Monday, the CGA senate passed a proposal made by the newspaper 's editorial board asking for financial independance from CGA. However, we like to think of it more as financial self-sufficiency. To say we could be totall y independent of our governing body would be ludicrous. The Voice is* a student-run , student newspaper. Its purposes arc to gather information and present it to the university community. It is also a learning tool , a vehicle for mass communication majors, as well as other interested parlies , to experiment wilh , learn and practice ncwswriiing, feature writing, advertising, etc. The CGA , an elected body of students who work lor students, is the parent organization for more than 100 campus clubs and organisations. It is ihe responsibility of CGA to allocate money to these organizations. Money to produce The Voice is, or at least was, allocated from the CGA budget. Student. Notice how dial word keeps popping up?Bccause the two organizations are run by students for the students , it could probably be reasoned that they arc dependent on each other in some ways. The Voice depends on CGA to be fair in the decision making, to evaluate issues and act accordingl y. CGA depends on The Voice to be fai r and objective when reporting university news and to keep the university informed of what is going on. However , to loosen the strings a bit , the new policy allows The Voice to keep its advertising revenue at the end of each year in a separate account in the University Trust Fund. After a substantial amount is maintained , this money will be used to produce the paper, therefore cvcnuall y eliminating the need for a CGA budget. To the Editor I would like lo lake this opportunity to respond to the "One Disappointed Senator". M y response will nolbe one of retaliation , but one of explanation.

I realized I wasn 't alone as several senators spoke their minds , for the first time , on the issue." The key words here are: FOR THE FIRST TIME. The reason exec board creates the amendments and asks questions is so the senate can obtain as much information concerning the issue at hand as possible. If exec board did not perform these duties , then by your own admission , they would not be carried out. Another fact should be clarified at this point. The amendments that were brought to the senate were not developed by exec board thoughts solely. Other concerned individuals were involved including the former editorin-chief of The Voice (except D-6) and CGA administrators. But I am sure you did not realize this , along with many other facts concerning the exec board . So now that I have explained why the exec board performed ils job , I would like to address your comments concerning certain questions and/or comments made by certain members of the exec board during previous meetings. You made bold remark s, but what you do not realize is that it docs not matte r if you feel the comments or questions were relevant or not. What matters is dial as many Getting back to the point.

The from pain in the world of international Voice reserves the right to edit, condense or reject all submissions. diplomacy. Boy not immune to abuse in the States by Ellen Goodman Editorial Columnist Terence Karamba may be too young to divine the importance of the term "diplomatic immunity." At nine, any boy would find it hard to understand why such words would protect a father but not the son he may have abused. Terence Haramba would be even more surprised to know that he has become the star of an international tug-of-war; a diplomatic custody fight. Yet the boy from Zimbabwe is just that: the central figure in a dispute before the U.S. Supreme Court that pits the best interests of one child against the interests of the international community in upholding a diplomatic code. The eldest child of a Zimbabwean diplomat in the United Nations came to notice in the haphazard way that private pain sometimes becomes public information. One morning, it is alleged, he arrived at his Queens, N.Y., school bloody and bruised. The city charged that his father, Floyd Karamba, "tied Terence's forearms and legs together with wire and repeatedly struck him with an electrical extension cord." During some of these beatings he was, they say, hung from pipes in the basement while his mother and two sisters were made to watch. The Human Resources Administration, still reeling from the death of 6-year-old Elizabeth Steinberg , allegedly at the hands of her fadier, gave this boy what they could not give Elizabeth . They gave him safety, a foster home. Because the father was a diplomat , he was immune from prosecution but not from expulsion. The State Department ordered him to go home, citing unacceptable conduct. He went, followed by his wife and daughters, while Terence stayed in a foster home in New York . Then Zimbabwe demanded its young citizen back. Officials prickled at the implication this boy would be safer in America than in his own country. More to the point, they prickled at a breach of diplomatic rules. In this dispute, our own government has tried to sound a position at once in sympathy with the child and yet in support of international law. But in fact, the two conflict, and the State Department comes down on the side of diplomacy. As Tom Merrill , who filed the government 's brief wilh Justice Blackmun on Tuesday, puts it: "We wouldn 't be happy if die officials of another country look child of an American diplomat and determined Lhat dicy had the authority to decide the custody of that child , or indeed whether the child had been abused. " We subscribe lo rules precisely so our own diplomats or their children won 't be at risk in other countries. There are questions of international law here. But there are also questions of one boy 's psyche. Terence is a frag ile and fri ghtened boy, his caretakers say. A boy who has tried tojump out of a car, out of a second-story window. When told in the gendest terms he might return to Zimbabwe, they report that Terence crawled into a cardboard box and sat there, rocking back and forth . So his Legal Aid Society lawyer, Janet Fink, asked Justice Blackmum to rule that Terence can appl y for asylum in the United States. "To us," she says, "this is a children 's rights case." Even if the justices allow Terence to stay and plead his case before an appeals court , the odds are that he will (Jtfje TBaitz Canada strikes down abortion law strike down the law indicated that Court of Appeals overturned thejury they might approve a new version of verdict, sentencing him to 18 months in prison and setting the stage for The Canadian Supreme Court the hospital committees.

Middle- and upper-income women have the option of going to MontreaJ or to one of Morgentaler's clinics in Toronto and Winnipeg. In addition, abortion clinics have sprung up in U.S. border towns. Poor women did not have those options, and it was for that reason that the court found the abortion law illegal. Abortion rates for Canadian women are about half those of women in the United States but are roughly the same as the rates for women in Great Britain and France. The highest rates of abortion in the industrial world are in communist countries.

New AIDS is not U.S. health threat by Thomas H. Maugh II L.A. Times-Washington Post Service The first known AIDS case in the U.S. caused by a second AIDS virus poses no threat to public health or to the nation's blood supply, federal officials said Thursday . The patient was a West African woman who contracted the disease before coming lo the U.S. last year to visit friends and family, epidemiologist Stanley H. Weiss of the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey said in a telephone interview. While in the United States , she was diagnosed with AIDS and the cause was traced to human immunodeficiency virus-2 or HIV-2, which was discovered in West Africa more than two years ago. Most cases of AIDS throughout the world - including all previously reported U.S. cases - are caused by the related virus HIV-1. Since arriving in the U.S., the woman has not engaged in sexual intercourse, used intravenous drugs or donated blood , activities that could transmit the virus, said Weiss. "This is simpl y an isolated case of HIV-2," and there is no evidence that anyone has caught it from her, Weiss said. "None of the woman 's family or known contacts have antibodies to the virus," he added. 'This does not represent a change in the AIDS situation in this country,"said infectious disease specialist Robert Horsburgh of the federal Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta. "It does not indicate that the virus is here." Dr. Robert E. Windom , assistant secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services, also noted that federal studies showed that the U.S. blood supply had not been contaminated by the virus. The woman is currently in isolation at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey Hospital in Newark, where she is being treated for a severe bacterial infection. AIDS, or acquired immune deficiency syndrome, destroys the body 's immune system, leaving the victim vulnerable to infections and some cancers. Health officials are not sure how the woman - whose race, age and family status were not revealed contracted the disease, but they noted that she does not belong to any groups considered at high risk in the United States. The woman does have a history of heterosexual relations in her home country, although she is not a prostitute, "and she received injections while hospitalized there ," Weiss said. She was referred to the university for treatment of a neurological disor- der, a common complication of * AIDS. HIV-2 was discovered in West Africa more than two years ago, and is thought to infect as much as 17 percent of the population of those countries. There has been continuing debate since its discovery about whether it can cause AIDS. "There can be little doubt now that it can," Weiss said. About 150 people in Europe have been confirmed to be infected with HI V-2, but there have been no previous cases in the United States. Researchers at the Centers for Disease Control reported Thursday that they had screened 22,699 blood samples in the U.S. for HIV-2, and have not found any trace of the virus. At a Washington press conference Thursday, Dr. S. Gerald Sandler, associate vice president of the American Red Cross, cited those statistics in announcing that the organization had no plans to test donated blood for HIV-2. But many scientists are afraid that such testing will become necessary if the virus becomes more commonplace because it is sufficiently different from HIV-1 to frequently escape detection with the tests now used. The spread of HIV-2 could also impede efforts to develop an AIDS vaccine. 9:30 p.m. Carver Hall I\lMlllULfw1 ilf* Photo by Bcn Gmrij on i IDayne Co11er iffPl W* * fc, Thurs . Feb . 4th S p. m.

Boxing Big East is a weird conference needs to preserve integrity Continued from page 8 minutes. Ten Hoyas have started at least one game. In Queens, Carneseccafinally made the switch from 6-11 Marco Baldi t o 6-9 Jayson Williams at center. In the by Raskin Mark Staff Writer On January 22, Mike Tyson took another giant step towards immortality with a splendid display against the 'old man' Larry Holmes. After three uneventful rounds it seemed as though someone had finally found a way to nullify Tyson's power, but that soon changed as Iron Mike woke up. Just as Holmes opened the fourth round in impressive fashion with his version of the jaband-move, Tyson countered with his now famous seek-and-deslroy technique. As Holmes flicked his once lethal left jab in the face of Tyson to keep him at a distance, Tyson clawed his way within range to load-up on thunderous shots. He caught Holmes, 17 years his senior, flush on the chin with onw of his torpedo rights thrown with murderous intent. This sen* Holmes sprawling across the ring and as a stunned and badly hurt Larry Holmes took the mandatory eight count, it was plain to see that the fight should have been stopped there and then. It 's been said that there is a thin line between bravery and stupidity, and Holmes, in no condition to tell the difference between the two, decided to carry on. Here is where I think the corner men should have thrown in the towel, or the referee should have taken the initiative and stopped the fight. Every blow Holmes received after that initial knockdown was potentially life-threatening and a boxer's safety should always come first. So a faded hero, LarryHolmes, was subsequently knockeddown two more times before the fight was stopped. It goes without saying that at 21, Mike Tyson can be considered one of the greatest boxers of any time or weight. But what of Larry Holmes and all the others who have had high hopes and dreams of beating Tyson? It seems as though there is no one out there capable of beating 'Iron Mike,' excepting, perhaps, Tyson himself. The same thing can be said for all the retired fighters who wish to carve a niche for themselves in the history books. Stay out of the ring and live in peace with yourselves. Tyson said it best after the fight with Holmes, "Holmes was a great champion in his time, but this is Tyson 's time and people should recognize that for what it is." George Foreman, the one time heavyweight champion, is now working his way to a crack at Tyson's belt. The names are the only things changing, but the end results are th,e same: -Tyson in 2 -Tyson in 4 -Tyson in 6 At Foreman's advanced age, the only problem he poses for Tyson is really which round and with which hand he will end the contest. These were the same nagging questions Tyson had against Holmes on the 22nd. Granted, the money is irresistible for a few shortminutes in the ring, but the boxing boards and commisions should act now and set up clear and definite policies in regard to capable challengers for contests under their sanction. If the present trend is allowed to continue, I envision the purses getting to some ridiculousheights and unworthy challengers getting title shots. If it continues as it is now , someone may get seriously hurt, or even worse, there may be another fatality in the ring. Act now arid maintain the integrity of the sport of boxing so that the public can once again enjoy contests of epic proportions. previous five games, Baldi had totaled 11 points and six rebounds in 79 minutes, and Williams had 43 points and 24 rebounds in 106 minutes.

For anyone watching television this past Saturday, especially on ABC, this year seemed like it might be the year wc would gel a close, competitive Super Bowl. But , I' m not blaming the entire day 's lacklustcrncss solely on the performance of the two conference champ ions. No, the day was clearl y a bi g dissapointment all the way around. The festivities started at noon. CBS was offering a match-up of the Boston Celtics against the Philadelphia 76crs in the Garden , where the Celtics hadn 't lost a game in their last 64 attempts. Sixers-Celtics games arc always good so wc tuned in. However, for those of us expecting some Barkley brawn to take on the Bird 's finesse, we were not treated to such. What wc saw was a Sixer team that was short two of their leading scorers, most importanUy, Charles Barklcy. So the Celtics walked all over the hap less Sixers , who are a sub-par team even at full strength. Bird scored at will , Aingc nailed a couple of three's and even sing lehandedl y broke up a Sixer two-onone fast break. So as we watched what was probably the worst game in NBA history, CBS still wouldn 't let us off the hook. They wcrcn'v ready lo sell this day off yet. They continued to entice the viewer with dioughts of Big East basketball versus Big Ten basketball in the Carrierdomc. That 's right , #17 Syracuse was taking on #8 Michi gan . What could be a better lead into the biggest football game since January 1st, than a top 20 game. Successfully duped , we began to watch Seikaly and Coleman do what ihcy did best, dunk. So as the Wolverines and the Orangeman did battle, the game shaped up to be a real barn-burner. Michigan led early, but Douglas and his two companions in the frontcourt soon changed that with some awesomne displays of alley oops. At halflime, wc got a little antsy and checked the Kentucky-Notre Dame game on ABC. For the brief moment wc tuned in , we saw Rex Chapman drive baseline to the hoop and sky in for a finger-roll that earned comments of appreciation from all of us. Satisfied that the Wildcats were handling the Irish, we switched back to the Carrierdome for some halftime fluff. We were treated to a shot of Pitt 's Jerome Lane disposing of a backboard . I couldn 't beleive it. I saw it again. I still couldn 't believe it. Then , disaster struck. As if on cue, reality came crashing into the Carrierdome and slowly turned the game into a blow out, with the Orangeman finally winning by 18. We were so bored, we started to watch the guy on the sidelines who did a lap everytime Syracuse scored. Wow. Then came the Super Bowl preview show, fortunately we missed a majority of it while still glued to our seats watching the basketball game. We jockeyed for position in front of the screen , picked our winners and anxiously waited for the kickoff. Then, finally, at 6:21, it came. At 28-10, 1 left. Rumor has it Washington won by 30 points.I don 't know, I missed the rest of the game because I had better things to do. Like my laundry.

Coach of the Year: Mike DeAnna of Edinboro • WRESTLER OF THE YEAR; RICKY BONOMO FRESHMAN OF THE YEAR; MARK BANKS By Sandy Keenan Newsday These days in the Big East, you almost need a grocery-store clicker to keep track of all the technical fouls being levied al coaches. Last Monday night , Providence's Gordon Chiesa was socked with one. Pittsburgh' s Paul Evans and Connecticut 's Jim Calhoun already have a season's share - five. When Pitt played UConn, Evans took time out from coaching to point out that Calhoun 's feet had stepped out of the coach's box , a no-no. The official called a technical on Calhoun. "That was a real brave call," said Calhoun , the most fervent critic of the men in stripes. He then received a second for yelling about the first. "That makes probably 354 of Ihose," Calhoun said, meaning in his career. "If they all bothered me, I'd be Calhoun a dead man by now." has thistheory that the brat pack of the league - new coaches such as he, Evans , Boston College's Jim O'Brien and Chiesa - suffer for the same things the established actors get away with. "I watch Paul, and in all honesty, Paul is very tough. I'm very animated, and confidence by Boeheim , there had been speculation that Syracuse threepoint specialist Matt Roe - who lacks the other all-around skills - was going to lose his starting position to Earl Duncan , who had 11 points, including three three-pointers, against Georgetown Sunday. It may happen yet. There were other promotions and demotions last week in moves that made coaches look as if they were playing musical players. At Connecticut, Calhoun has used six different starting lineups. Center Cliff Robinson is the only player to have started every game. Secondleading scorer Phil Gamble finally has replaced Tate George as starting point guard. And freshman Murray Williams has become a starter at forward only two weeks after Calhoun said he was too green. At Georgetown, John Thompson went with two point guards in his starting five against Syracuse to cut down on "uncaused turnovers," and center Ben Cillery replaced nowstarting Charles Smith as the sixth man. Cillery responded with a careerhigh 11 points and six rebounds in 28 see BIG EAST page 7 Final Standings: 118-Supsic 3rd 126- Kennedy 1st 134- Reed 3rd 142- Cummings 4th 150- Morgan 2nd 158- Banks 1st 167- Holier 6th 177- Brown 3rd Hwt.- Ippolite 2nd Huskies next match is at Pitt, on Friday , February 5th Big East is a weird confe rence Jim is always going at them. But Jimmy (Boeheim) and Looie (Carnesccca) do it, too. They (officials) adjust to your style. They look at Looie and say, 'Isn't he cute and active.' Then they look at me. I'm 6-5, and I'm not cute.'" When told that Calhoun was arguing for his cause, O'Brien said thanks, but no thanks. "Those two guys are crazy. I' m a mild-mannered reporter. Don't put me with those guys." When asked the significance of his Sooners beating then-No. 6-ranked Pitt , 86-83, Oklahoma Coach Billy Tubbs became indignant. "That's old hat, man. What Big East team has beaten us? None, none, like none. This is not like we won a world championship because we beat a Big East team. I'd say they 're better than the Transamerica Conference." Tubbs is 3-0 vs. Big East teams in his career; Oklahoma is 4-5 overall. "Hey, if you bring any one of them outhere, we'll kick their buttand send them home," he said.
