Residence hall bids discussed Belongings taken from lockers during game by Tom Sink Managing Editor Approximately $400, a watch and a ski jacket were removed from the lockers of Bloomsburg .University alumni before the BU-Chcney University basketball game Feb. 13, according to BU Sports Information Director Jim Hollister. "It happened when the alumni were on the floor," he said, referring to the BU alumni game which proceeded the Pennsylvania Conference Eastern Division contest between the Huskies and the Wolves. "The doors (to the locker room) were supposed to be locked," Hollister said. "I have no idea how anyone could have gotten in there." Hollister said once the items were discovered missing, the Cheney coaching staff pulled the players from warm-up. Although the watch and jacket and some cash were later returned, Hollister said some of the money remained missing. "They knew there was a problem. They were upset more so lhan us," he said. "To say their entire team was involved is unfair." Hollister said no reports ofthe incident were filed with the campus police and that the Cheney coaching staff is conducting an internal check."The situation could best be handled internally," he added. "(The BU Alumni) got back most of the items, hopefully the rest will bc resolved." Richard Yanni , a 1976 graduate of Bloomsburg State College who participated in the alumni game, said "It kind of put a damper on the (BUCheney) game." Yanni said none of his belongings were taken because he secured his locker. Another BU participant , Tony DaRe, said he was a "victim" of the incident, but declined to say what was taken and referred questions to BU officials. "The situation has not been resolved," said BU Associate Director Mary Gardner. She added that no comment could be made until a resolution was reached. Cheney's basketball coach Charles Songster also did not comment on the incident and referred all questions to Cheney Athletic Director Andrew Hinson , who in turn referred all questions to Gardner. "I'm sure we'll get the situation resolved because of our long-term relationship with them,". Hollister said. "We don 't care who did it, we just want the things back." The Annual North Central Pennsylvania Education Consortium will be held at Bloomsburg University, in the Kehr Union Building on Tuesday, AprU 26, 1988. The Education Consortium is sponsored by BU, as well as Lock Haven, Mansfield , East Stroudsburg, Susquehanna and Bucknell Universities and Lycoming College. Over 50 school districts and intermediate units will visit campus to interview interested teaching candidates from the sponsoring institutions. Sign-ups for the program will begin on Wednesday, Feb.24 at5 p.m. in the Career Development Center, Room 12, Ben Franklin Building.

Commentary Frat treatment inconsistant To thc Editor I find it increasingly distressful that the university seems to have completely failed to inflict any substantial punishment on the fraternity Lambda Chi Alpha after it was recently raided by police for serving alcohol to minors. There seems to bc obvious favoritism toward Lambda Chi on the part of thc administration. Let 's return to last semester and look at a similar raid on thc fraternity of Beta Sigma Delta. It 's curious that Beta Sig has its charter taken away, thereby losing all university and social benefits and in essence becoming non-cxistant in thc eyes of the administration. Lambda Chi , however, did not suffer thc same fate, even though at time of its raid it was already on probation for violaii ng anti-hazing laws (the brothers were caught in thc woods by police with blind-folded pledges, uh , excuse mc, "associates," and kegs of beer). Beta Sig was not on probation when they were raided. Isn't there supposed to bc a threestep process in taking away a fraternity 's charter? The process seems to have been eliminated in the case of Beta Sig. Does thc university see the "locals" (fraternities and sororities which exist nowhere else except here at BU) such as Beta Sig, Sigma Iota Omega and Delta Pi as undesirable and therefore readily expendable at the best, well-publicized opportunity when compared to national fraternities and sororities such as Teke (Tau Kappa Epsilon or TKE) and (hie!) Lambda Chi. Maybe thc fact that thc raid on Lambda Chi happened almost sans publicite ' was a major factor , even though it shouldn 't have been. Afte r all, the punishment inflicted upon Beta Sig should not bc blown out ot proportiaon just because thc publicity surrounding it was. In a recent Voice article ("Fiats offer party alternative", Feb. IS , 1988) wc are told of non-alcoholic parties being sponsored by Teke and Lambda Chi. Lambda Chi President Mike Bryan seems to give the impression that the fraternity brothers have learned thoir lesson, although it is not entirel y dour that they learned it from thc fuel that they themselves were busted , a point which was, forsome unknown reason . purposefully omitted by Jeff Smith , who wrote the article. I found Mike Bryan 's comment "...we want to convey to die campus that you don 't need alcohol at a social function... " and Lambda Chi Social Chairman Todd Kitchen 's comment tliat their "dry " party would prove that people can have a good time without alcohol as totally hypocritical and distasteful . A fraternity which has been caught serving alcohol to minors one week should definitely nol preach about thc evils of alcohol thc next. All that you 've "conveyed" to many students, president Bryan , is that you do not practice what you preach. Please don 't try to inflict your twisted morals on us again. Two-faced. As simple and crudel y elementary as this compound adjective may sound , it seems to fit thc administration 's handling of the raids on Beta Sig Delta and Lambda Chi Alpha. And before the administration retaliates by claiming that Beta Sig was so severely punished because of the violent protest which erupted after the raid on the fraternity house, let mc point out thc violence was no fault of Beta Sig, which cooperated fully with the police. The protest was thc result of the immature student who attended the party and heightened by the gung-ho, let 's-string- 'em-up attitude- of thc mace-happy officers. (A friend of mine was innocendy walking past the fraternity house at the time of thc raid and was maccd by a cop regardless of iho fact that he was in no way connected with thc party going on inside! 7). The point of tiic letter is to simply ask thc administration , (Specificall y Dr. Jerrold Griffis , vice president for Student Life and Robert Norton , assistant vice president for Student Life) why they pounded down so hard on Beta Sig and then basicall y turned their heads the other way with Lambda Chi? I myself am not in a frate rnity and have nothing to lose or gain witli either decision. My opinion and concerns, however, should be valued by thc administration , just as those of any B U student , regardless of frate rnal affilication (or thc lacking thereof). Thc administration should realistically (not just ideally) represent and listen to all thc students when it comes to fratcrnitiles and sororities because die Greek ratio here is so large that every student is affected by thc system, whether they like it or not. I believe lhat the administration to be fair in its decision to punish Beta Sig and Lambda Chi it should pcrsue one of two courses of action: (1) Take away Lambda Chi' s charter immediately with no it's, ands or buts, just as was done with Beta Sig, or (2) restore Beta Sig's charter completely and give thc Beta Sig brothers thc same oppportunilitcs as those given to Lambda Chi , to prove that they, too, have learned their lesson.

Everything went well and I was accepted into the mass communications department. The department was suffering from a lack of instructors and an overabundance of students. The university was suffering from a lack of organization and an overabundance of bureaucracy. I made arrangements to schedule classes for the fall. I returned early so everything would be in order for the first day of classes.When I visited my advisor for my new department, who in all fairness has been a great help and done more than his share of fighting for me, I discovered trouble. When a student transfers from one department to another, his or her file is duplicated in the registrar's office and sent to the new department. Mine was not. After approximately one week of searching, I took matters into my own hands and got my file from my old department and walked it to my new one. Done? Wrong! All the preapproval forms that had been so wisely procurred in advance had suddenly disappeared from my file. Afterweeksof fighting the registrar over these forms, I once again took matters into my own hands. I walked the appropriate forms through the administration and returned to the registrar. Now our ever-efficient registrar was amazed when I returned. They did not have a file for me. Where could it have gone? They could not have processed the approval forms anyway because no transcript from my other university had arrived. The transcripts in question had been requested before I had left the university to return to Bloomsburg. Three requests I made for a transcript and three times I was told that none had been received. Finally the office of the registrar phoned my other school and inquired about me. Hurray for the registrar! He seemed to be showing a genuine interest in me as one of their students. Wrong. He just found someone else to blame.Finally, I returned to my other university and stood over the woman who processed my transcript and mailed it. As a precaution , I made her sign an affidavit. The form s are in. The semester ended. All the information is finally complete. End of story. Perhaps I should say end of chapter one. Wait , it is not over yet.As a second semester senior who is taking all core courses in order to graduate, I am busier than most seniors but I don 't mind because I want out. The end of last semester everything was worked out so I could graduate. We are now one month into the spring semester and I have not received an application to graduate. I went to the registrar. According to their records, I was supposed to graduate in spring of 1987, "didn't I?" Seeing as how I was not a student at " Where is your support , BU? To the BU Community I' m writing this because it is important for me to take a stand. Before I do, let me introduce myself. My name is Rolf Timothy Carlson. I was an assistant professor on temporary assignment with thc theatre at Bloomsburg University for one very special year. It was special because of the nature of my relationships wilh many of you who are still there. It was special becauscof thc students in myclasscs, the faculty I worked with , and the plays wc produced. I' ve never, in my 45 years, written something like this with the intention of having it published . However, as I stated before , I need to take a stand. Feb. 17, I attended thc opening performance of Eugene O Neill s play, A Moon for lhe Misbegotten. By thc way, this is not a critique of thc play, it is merely an observation. It was a good piece of iheatre. It was possibly Mr. Hitashi Sato's last piece ever, however regrettable that may be. I believe Mitrani Hall seats nearly 2,000 people. BU has approximately 6,000 students and a large faculty and staff. There may be as many as 8,000 bodies in the community. The play was performed four times. If my math is correct, 2,000 scats multiplied by four performances equals 8,000, or a full house for every performance. So why were there about 40 people in the audience? Furthermore, some of the 40 wcre residents of Bloomsburg hot direclly affiliated with the university community. To put it blundy, I'm ashamed. I'm disgusted. Where are you? Faculty, don 't you require that your students see the plays? Do you attend the plays? One of thc speech faculty stated as she passed through the theatre before the play started , "I didn 't know until yesterday that Jody was acting in this play." To me, that is Registrar causes headaches f or senior To the Editor I am not a violent or unusually outspoken person under normal circumstances. However, these are not normal circumstances and I am mad as hell about this university and its administration. This is not another story about fraternities and other organizations who are at times victims of the system and social upittyness. No, this is a story about every student who attends this institute of higher learning, the key word being institute. During my departure from Bloomsburg, in search of my direction in life, I attended another local university. Thankfully I found what I was looking for in the mass communication courses I took and made a decision to return to Bloomsburg. Here is where the saccarine-sweet story ends and reality begins. In an unusual flash of insight, I took the precaution of having all the classes I was to take preapproved by Bloomsburg so that when I returned to finish my degree, the process would run smoothly. As some of you may know the process is not all that involved. Classes are chosen by the student and a faculty advisor. Later the chairperson of the department must sign the forms and then they go to the dean. After completing this,one copy is sent to the registrar and others to the individuals department. I was set, or so I thought Drill ii ¦ J IB IL ill lit the time, no. I got my application and got my graduation date straight. Easy enough, I'm happy as a clam and ready to graduate. My advisor stopped me the other day and said lhat he needed to see me about some forms he had received wcre preapproval forms that had been lost during the summer of 1987. Now the preapproval forms that I walked throug h were gone and to top it all off , they were not accepting one of my classes. Naturally I want the problem resolved but not much can be done, the registrar is on vacation for two weeks and all the part-time help is clueness as to what is happening. My advisor and some of my friends are saying not to worry about this, but this is my life! The general opinion is one of calm diligence. Stay calm and work this out and everything will be fine. If everyone on this campus feels that way, it is no wonder that our registrar is almost one year behind in processing files! Perhaps if enough people would stop resting on their laurals and express an opinion our administration would be more efficient. Once I was proud to say I went to Bloomsburg. However now I will never recommend this school to anyone. The problems I experienced are not uncommon and sadly only just the tip of the iceberg. Maybe some day someone will put enough heat on the university to melt it. Anonymous beyond belief. Fraternities and sororities , don 't you urge your membership lo bc active in their appreciation of the events on campus? Administrators, do you only administrate by day and forget what happens at night? Maintenance, grounds crew, where are you? Arc the tickets too expensive? Do you not see posters or hear or see advertisements? Docsn 't the word get around campus? Is three hours away from television , beer and pretzels, studies and home more than you can manage? Theatre is frivolity, right? I am ashamed of you. If anyone wishes to respond to this observation , I can be reached at Albright College in Reading where I am technical director of the Campus Center Theatre. Mr. Sato, I apologize if you see this as improper. This is my personal observation. Part of this observation concludes that your 16 years of dedication deserves more response. You 've touched a lot of lives and your spirit will remain. To thc Editor I would like to know what the hell is going on here at BU. Four years ago when I was a freshman I could go to a social event without the worry about being arrested for the ghastly crime of under-age drinking. Now studen ts here at BU can't even go as a guest to someone's house without having these "moral crusaders" charging through the door and arresting us "hard-core criminals." Let's face the facts in these last four years. The students and the Greek organizations have scaled down the amount of parties in order to keep student-town relations in good order. For example, I remember my fraternity (four years ago) having three parties a week. Now we have one party and we clear everyone out by 11:45 p.m. I am not denying there is underage drinking going on , but remember the amount of beer available and the number of people in a party make it very hard to get even four or five beers. The main aspect of these "social gatherings"is to meet members ofthe opposite sex, not to get "crushed." Nearly 100 percent of the people at these "social gatherings"are students from campus that walk. We as students pour great amounts of money into this town in the manner of ordering out for food , haircuts, food shopping, movie rentals, movie going, clothes shopping, etc. What if we decided , all of us, to stop doing this for a month . The economy of this town would drop like a "rock in a river." We are thc economy of this town and my proof lies in the sales receipts of the town businesses during the regular academic calendar and their receipts in the summer. If we want to have our "right to party" back we must be sensible. We should walk to the parties or if we happen to drive, assign a driver who doesn't drink. Respect our neighbors by keeping the hours reasonable by ending the parties by 12 midnight. But to get this back we as students mustputpressureon the town council. Do you know as a student you can rcgistar to vote here in Bloomsburg? If enough students registered we could put someone on the town coun: cil. Or better yet, we could, by vote power, get the local state representative in Harrisburg to listen to our demands. To acomplish this we must UNITE as a student body and fight back. I' m mad as hell and I' m not going to take it anymore. Signed Adonis P.S. Register to vote. This is the key. Rolf Timothy Carlson ? We have to fig ht for our right...' Wt\Z HfotCE Editor-in-Chief.

Times-Washington Post Service Trop-X keyboardist, Kevin Mahar entertains a crowd at Lambda Chi's nonalcoholic party Saturday night. photo by its™ Rac The federal government has refused to contribute to any financial settiements for families of threeof the seven astronauts killed in the Challenger shuttle crash , asserting that it has no legal liability in the accident. The most recent of these settlements came last week when the father and brother of mission specialist Judith A. Resnik signed an agreement with shuttle contractor Morton Thiokol Inc. for payments said to total $1.5 million to $2.5 million. Although the government contributed to similar settlements with four of the Challenger families in December 1986, it has since turned down claims arising from the nation 's worst space accident, according to lawyers involved in the cases. Michael Oldak, a lawyer representing the Resniks, said the Justice Department cut off negotiations with him several months ago and refused to offer anything. "The government for some reason was trying to screw us," said Marvin Resnik, the astronaut 's father. "We feel the attorney general's office did not bargain in good faith. ... She lost her life just as much as any of the others." Baby declared brain-dead, organs donated by Janny Scott and Louis Sahagun LA. Times-Washington Post Service The first anencephalic baby to be kept alive in the United States solely for the purpose of preserving his organs for donation has been declared brain dead, clearing the way for his liver and perhaps heart to be transplanted into another infant. Officials at Loma Linda Medical Center, 60 miles east of Los Angeles, described the baby 's quiet death as vindication of the controversial procedure, saying they had succeeded in preserving the infant 's organs without causing him pain or inordinately prolonging his life. "My staff have said they feel very, very good," Dr. Joyce Peabody, chief of neonatology at Loma Linda, said in a press conference. "They do not feel that in any way the dignity or respect of this baby was compromised." The seven-pound baby, born Tuesday with a condition called anencephaly in which most of the brain is missing, was first declared brain dead at about 9 p.m. Wednesday. He had been put on a respirator since his birth 25 hours earlier in an Anaheim hospital. The infant remained on a respirator after die declaration of brain death so that his organs could continue to receive oxygen, which is necessary if they are to be suitable for transplant. The baby, identified only as Baby John , was entered into the national organ donation system to be matched with other babies needing his organs. System officials have located four potential recipients with the same blood type in need of a liver, Peabody said. She said transplant system officials would decide within a day or two which infant would receive the liver. Then a team of surgeons probably will fly here to "harvest" the organ and return with it for transplantation. Although such procedures have been used on anencephalic newborns in Canada, they have never been used previously in the United States. The entire procedure, being pioneered at Loma Linda under guidelines drawn up late last year, has been attacked by ethicists and others who say that it is morally wrong to keep a person alive on a respirator solely for the benefit of someone else. Some have also argued that there are no proven standards for determining brain death in infants under seven days old or in anencephalic infants. For that reason, they say that there is a risk that organs might be removed from a living human being. "What they are doing here, I think , is an indication of the danger, that these babies are being regarded as another species," Dr. Alexander Capron, a prominent spe- cialist in determination of brain death, commented Thursday. "They're not regarded as human beings." Peabody, however, said th at she was encouraged by the case. She said that the hospital had accomplished its aim of maintaining the baby's organs "without rendering any apparent discomfort or distress to the baby." That is, the baby was lying comfortably and showing no signs that the breathing tube was bothering him , she said. Secondly, Peabody said brain death occurred "in a reasonable period of time"and was "clear and certain"to three neurologists and two neonatologists who examined the baby. Critics have said that the respirator could inappropriately prolong the process of dying. Thirdly, Peabody said that her staff felt satisfiedwith the conduct and outcome of the case and the way the baby had been treated. The baby 's mother, too, said that she was "heartened by the outcome of an event that would otherwise have been a tragedy," Peabody said. Finally, Peabody pointed to the four potential recipients. "There is, in fact, a need, in the country at this , time for four livers matching this baby's blood type," she said in an interview after the press conference. "So, clearly something good came from the effort." As for the controversial question of brain death, Peabody said that determination was based on the absence of any brain stem reflexes, gag reflexes, blinking and other response to stimuli, and the absence of any spontaneous breathing in response to a stimulus. Under questioning, she said the baby did receive Demarol, a painkiller, twice during and shortly after being transported from the Anaheim hospital where he was born to LomaLinda. She denied the suggestion of some critics that painkillers might prompt a response that could be misinterpreted as brain death. We are quite convinced that there was no Demarol in the baby's body at the time of death ," she said, noting that the last dose was administered 11 hours before the first determination of brain death. However, Capron, a professor of law, medicine and public policy at the University of Southern California who helped draft the law on brain death in California , Thursday questioned the hospital' s ability to diagnose brain death in newborns. Anencephalic babies are born with neither the tops of their skulls nor the higher brain centers that control thought and feelings. With only a small brain stem to power their lungs and heart, such infants usually die within hours or days of birth. Essay aggravates euthanasia issue by Allan Parachim L.A. Times-Washington Post Service An anonymous first-person essay in a medical journal in which a doctor describes killing a dying cancer patient with a shot of morphine has touched off a controversy over questions of medical ethics and freedom of the press, a controversy complicated by doubt about whether the episode ever occurred. The unusual situation first took shape in early January when the Journal of the American Medical Association published the four-paragraph essay under the headline, "It's Over, Debbie." In it, the unidentified doctor ostensibly in the third year of aresidency in obstetrics and gynecology recounts a middle-of-the-night episode in which he or she rushed to the hospital room of a young woman dying of ovarian cancer and ended her life after she said, "Let's get this over with." While the essay has triggered another round in the international debate over euthanasia , the AMA now faces a subpoena from a Chicago prosecutor demanding the name of the physician author , even more basic questions have arisen about whether the essay is to be believed and why it was published. Kirk Johnson, general counsel at the AMA's Chicago headquarters, said Thursday that even the journal's editors were uncertain whether the article was based on fact or fiction. He acknowledged, however, that the journal knew the author's identity, had communicated with him or her before the essay appeared and had confirmed that it was a specific physician. Johnson and other top AMA officials have repeatedly emphasized that the association continues to vigorously oppose legalization of euthanasia and that the article, true or untrue, was published to stimulate discussion. Dr. George Lundberg, the journal's editor, decided to publish the essay even though "there are differing opinions about whether or not it is a piece of fiction, whether it has some basis in fact and has some fiction or is completely factual," Johnson said. Lundberg, who had previously defended his decision to publish the essay, was instructed to stop commenting publicly on the controversy, Johnson said, after the subpoena was served on the AMA Tuesday. In a prepared statement, the AMA said it "strongl y condemns the conduct described in the essay. Indeed our ethical opinions specificall y state that a physician should not intentionally cause death." However, experts ranging from the national head of the Hemlock Society, the Santa Monica, Calif.-based organization that advocates the right to strictly regulated euthanasia, to Alexander Capron, a University of Southern California medical ethicist who was executive director ofa presidential commission on moral issues in care of the dying, question whether the essay may have been bogus, planted in the journal by advocates or opponents of euthanasia to sway public opinion. Their doubts focus on questions of hospital procedure described in the essay and on whether the amount of narcotic used could have been fatal. Johnson said the AMA will demand a formal court hearing on the subpoena early next week in which the association will argue that an Illinois state statute that allows reporters to keep their information sources secret also permits the AMA to refuse to identify the essay's author. Justice Department spokeswoman Amy Brown confirmed this week that the government has declined to participate in any further settlements with Challenger families, other than the four that it negotiated on behalf of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and Morton Thiokol in 1986. Besides Resnik, the government did not make payments to Ronald E. McNair's family, which also settled separately with Thiokol . A suit filed by the widow of Challenger pilot Michael J. Smith against NASA and Thiokol is pending. les R. Richey, during oral arguments on a freedom of information lawsuit filed by three news organizations, told department lawyers Thursday that an "overriding public interest" justified release of at least the total amount paid to all four families and what portion of that total was paid by Morton Thiokol. Department officials have argued that it would be unfair for them to contribute to any settlement higher than the amounts negotiated in 1986. Citing the survivors' privacy, the department has never released the settlement terms. But U.S. District Court Judge Char- In the case of the Resniks, spokeswoman Brown said, the family had initially rejected a "very generous" settlement offer that was based on the formula used to compute the secret payments received by the four other Challenger families. The Justice Department's initial offer, on behalf of NASA and Morton Thiokol, was estimated by Oldak to be worth "several hundred thousand dollars," a figure he said was substan tially less lhan that offered the other families, apparently because Resnik was the only Challenger crew mem- Anyone interested in performing in next fall' s BU Marching Band Front should sign up on the bulletin board outside Haas 114.

According to court papers filed in the freedom of information suit, Justice Department officials, seeking to avert "highly complex tort litigation," began meeting with some of the Challenger families soon after the accident in an effort to reach an overall settlement. The families were urged not to retain private counsel and to accept the compensation offered by the Justice Department in order to avoid any further damaging publicity, according to two lawyers who were retained by the astronauts' families. Ronald Krist, who was retained by McNair's widow, said his attempts to negotiate with the Justice Department were "fruitless." They told him "if I was not going to fall in line with the other widows, then they were not going to contribute," he said.

Good guy turns bad an outdated story Features by Pat Andrews Staff Writer Seeing a 12-year-old boy using heroin is usually no laughing matter, especially when you know that it does happen. But A Hero Ain 't Nothin ' but a Sandwich presents this theme in such a far fetched and unrealistic manner that it borderlines on comical. The story was all too common; about a young teenage boy who is seemingly the brightest one in his classes. He is well liked by all his friends and the foca l point of praise and admiration from his teachers. So how docs an exemplary teen become a heroin addict? Maybe because his father left his mother when he was younger. Or maybebecause he lives in the ghettos. Or perhaps it is because he just can not accept his mother's new boyfriend. It 's probably a combination of all of these things. Funk band creates innovative music by Joan Khng and Tina Nitchman for The Voice "An innovation is a uni que experience, therefore we wish to be an Innovation in unforgettable music," is what nine talented young music students said in 1981. The group, which performed Sunday at 8:30 p.m. in Kehr Union Building consists of nine members, including four lead vocalists, a horn section , three keyboard players, lead and bass guitars, and one percussionist. Seven of Inn-O-Vation 's members are from thc Louisiana area, one is from South Bend , Indiana and one is from Kansas City. All band members have had formal training under the supervision of Dr. Alvin Batiste (the nationally proclaimed Ambassador of Jazz) at Southern University . Inn-O-Valion has opened for such notables as Ncw Edition and Jean Kni ght. They have been encouraged by The Gap Band and Thc Bus Boys. The group has played at the University of Texas, University of Tennessee, Genesee Community College and Campbell University, where they received excellent reviews. Prof essor discusses his lif e in the media But the idea of a good person gone bad is just a little outdated and overdone. Maybe it went over well back in 1978 when the film first hit the box office, but in the 80's, it isn't even fit to be used in an aftcrschool special. The comical side of the story takes the form of a young and energetic boy dressed in bell-bottomed j«-ns and polyester T-shirts named Benjie (played by Larry B. Scott). Larry B. Scott fits the role of Benjie very well. He plays a quick wilted, intelligent and industrious 13-yearold. His intellect and wittiness was always a step ahead of the rest of the characters in the film. In one specific instance , Benjie is asked to read his composition out loud to the class. After g iving a touching composition on his mother, Bcnjie 's teacher tells him how excellent his writing skills are and conti nues by telling B enjie that 'he could be a famous writer someday and really be somebody. The teachers compliment was acknowledged by Benjie with a frown followed by a quick response , "I already am somebody." But no matter how strong Benjie 's role is , it is not enoug h to keep the plot out of the deep waters of failure.^ If you wcre one of the many who left early during the movie, or if by chance you just couldn 't find the time to see the movie, don 't distress because A Hero Ain ' t Nothin ' but a Sandwich ain 't nothin ' much of a movie. by BiU Giorgini tlen-Harris sought to further his edu.— ,, , -7-—=— —v Staff Writer cation.

Drug testing an emp loy ees right by Linda E McLeod for The Voice The road for "casual" or "social" drug users is coming to a dead end. Employers are now demanding that potential employees submit to drug screening tests before hiring. Failure to pass the test can mean an automatic rejection. According to many employers, hiring drug users can be expensive. Users work less efficiently than their "clean" co-workers, have accidents more often , suffer illness more frequently, and use more sick days. Employers maintain they have the right to have their employees show up fit for work. A person using drugs does not work up to his or her potential, thus costing the company money. Just as important, employees have the right to know their co-workers are not a hazard in the work place. No one wants their life to be endangered by a person who has lost control to drugs. Drug use on the job can cost lives. According to officials at Omega Medical Laboratoriesin Wyomissing, PA, a major supplier of drug testing programs, a well-run drug screening program can be better than 99.7% accurate. The rumors we've all heard about testing positive for opium after eating a poppy-seed roll, or testing positive for marijuana after being in a room with people getting high, are grossly exaggerated. Simply stated, if you don't use drugs, there is no need to worry. Omega says that a good drug testing program would consist of much more than just a chemical analysis. A wellrun program would first consist of a company wide policy that includes notification of testing 24 hours prior to the actual test. Secondly, the employee being tested would be asked if he or she had taken any drugs, legal or non-legal, prescribed or non-prescribed. After the test, if a positive result was found, the employee would have the opportunity to discuss the results with a medical professional. Finally, the opportunity would be made available for a re-test of the by Doug Rapson Staff Writer It is midnight and he is "happening."Turning the volume up, he spins around in his chair and grabs a Modern English album , "Ho! That was right there!" Ted Hodgins got involved in radio when he was in high school. The high school station gave Hodgins "something to do" in Ardmore. The FM station had a 15 mile broadcast radius from the school and programmed music and sports. Hodgins has been at WBUQ since it started broadcasting. He likes to work alone and he likes to work late at night "I don't like the afternoon. It's boring," Hodgins says as he leans back in his chair, At night you get crazy. You know,late night college junkies." The senior mass communications major answers the phone. It is a girl from Elwell Hall staying up late wilh Hodgins. She is typing her philosophy paper and wants to hear some Elvis Costello. Hodgins playfully rebukes her for procrastinatingand promises to get her request on as soon as he can. An Executive Slacks album comes on. "I hate this band. The album is called Nausea and now we know why. You wait, I'll say it too," he says. He smiles and says, 'This is it. I was programming director here first...We decided to do whatever the other stations weren't doing. "That 's the way it should be. That s why we are progressive," says Hodgins. He picks up my recorder, 'That's quotes there! 'PROGRESSIVE'! People don 't know what it is. It's just new music." He puts on the headset. Sliding the outlevel up, he says, "Getting Away Across tlie Border. There's Modern English from Stop/Start. And as I mentioned before they were at Susquehanna University's Webber Chappel. It's 12:22 in the morning here in the happening metropolis of Bloomsburg." Starting up arecord he says, "Anybody can be a disc jockey. It's so easy. I don't know why people say they can't do it I'm having fun." The phone rings for the twentieth time in half an hour. It is the girl from Elwell again. She has given up on her paper. Hodgins tells her to "throw the typewriter out the window, woman." same sample by the most precise instrument available. In the final analysis, a human judgement will be made. If drugs effect the performance of employees, all drugs should be screened. Alcohol is a drug. Some current drug screens do not test for alcohol. Because alcohol flushes out of the system rapidly, routine drug screening would most likely not detect alcohol abuse. This may mean that an alcoholic would be hired for a job while someone who smoked marijuana once a week would not be considered for employment This is where a poorly run program could fail. . From the employers' point of view, a properly run drug program can save money and eliminate hazardous conditions for employees caused by drug use. Employers now have the legal right to ask any and all employees and potential employees to submit to a drug screen. Whether one likes itornot , the drug screening test may be waiting at the end of the road.

I I Photo by Jessie Rae Robin Williams does it again by Mike Moyer Staff Writer Robin Williams has won a well-deserved Oscar nomination for his hilarious portrayal of disc jockey Adrian Cronaucr in Good Morning, Vietnam. Cronaucr was a real-life Air Force Sgt. who came to Siagon earl y in 1965 to become a DJ for Armed Forces Radio. Good Morning,Vietnam begins in the same fashion as Williams arrives in Vietnam , eagerly awaiting his first broadcast. He's an instant hit with the soldiers and a miss with his immediate superiors. Williams begins each show by shouting, "Good Morning,Vietnam!" He reads thc news, plays rock and roll and talks about everything from the heat ("It's so hot here, I saw one of those little guys in thc orange robes burst into flames") to President Johnson 's daughter ("Why did Lyndon Johnson call his daughter Lynda Bird? Because Lynda Dog would be too cruel"). That's only a small sample of the films 's hilarious jokes. Good Morning, Vietnam is the first comedy made about the Vietnam War, but beneath all the hilarity there s a depressing realization known only to the movie audience and suspected by William 's character. Namely, that the minor conflicts in 1965 would eventually turn into the bloodbath of the Vietnam War. Even the songs played by Williams, such as "Nowhere to Run , Nowhere to Hide"and "It's a Wonderful World", have a depressing irony to them. No one yet realizes the sad truth behind these lyrics. In one ofthe film 's best scenes, Williams entertains a detachment of soldiers waiting to be taken to the front lines. Done with his jokes, he sadly watches them depart, knowing many will never return. The film 's highlights are when Williams is doing his radio broadcasts. When he's off the air, the film gets bogged down in an undeveloped love story between Williams and a Vietnamese woman and by redundant images of the U.S. military buildup. But these minor flaws are overshadowed by the film 's major perfection: Robin Williams. SDirector Barry Levinson allowed Williams to ad-lib and improvise many of the lines and it pays off.

We know the source and be on our way again.' " rish last year. It was dead enough, however, for an arbitrator to cry foul and set the wronged 1986 free agents free again, if those players so desired. Tigers right fielder Kirk Gibson so desired, gladly accepting a $4.5 million, three-year contract from the Los Angeles Dodgers. Now the Tigers have no Gibson , no leadoff hitter , no DH. And there's a possibility that starting pitchers Jack Morris and Doyle Alexander could also be declared free again. That's a glum outlook and certainly no way to defend a division title, especially in the American League East. Somewhere in between the ecstasy of the A's and agony of the Tigers is everyone else. Right behind the A's in terms of boldness were the Dodgers. Fred Claire, the general manager voted most unlikel y to survive the winter meetings, accomplished much. He carved huge hunks of dead wood from the payroll. He then went out and restocked the roster and did just about everything asked except find a defense or a third baseman (please, not Pedro Guerrero again). It's probably not enough to upend the San Francisco Giants in the National League West, but at least the Dodgers show a pulse. And , in what may really scare owners in boih leagues, thc Dodgers are now showing a willingness to use Peter O'Malley's money to buy back into thc winner's circle. The Kansas Cily Royals also tried to shake, rattle and roll free from a lethargic 1987, though not with the success of the A's. The American League West club added left-hander Floyd Bannister to a rotation that already contained Bret Saberhagen and Qharlie Leibrandt. Pitching wins a lot of games. Aside from the acquisition of Billy Martin, the Yankees added a major heavy hitter in Jack Clark. Like Martin, Clark comes with questions attached. Can he stay healthy? Can he keep an upbeat attitude? Can he easily mesh with a clubhouse already stocked with superstars such as Don Mattingly, Dave Winfield and Rickey Henderson? The Yankees hope they don 't add another question to that list halfway through the season: Can Clark pitch? Why the concern? The Tigers boast Morris, for now. Toronto has Jimmy Key. The Red Sox have the best in Roger Clemens and the possibility that a healthy Dennis "Oil Can "Boyd will come north with the club in April. The MilwaukeeBrewers boast Teddy Higuera. No such dominant pitcher fortifies Martin's rotation. But who knows? George Steinbrenner may have another shot at Morris. It made New York happy, for it subtracted Clark's long ball from the St. Louis Cardinals, the team the crosstown Mets love to hate. Thus did the Yankees alter the picture not only in their own division but perhaps even more in the National League East. by Tom Verducci The rigors ofa baseball season have prompted Billy Martin to lose sleep, weight, his health and sometimes his job. But Thursday , all about him was perfect. The infield grass was freshly clipped , the Florida sun warmed him and the New York Yankees had yet to lose a game. Martin himself looked tanned and healthy. It was a moment for optimism , and Martin provided it. On the eve of his club's first workout, Martin talked as boldl y and brashly as he expects the Yankees to play. He spoke of instructing his players in the art of barreling over shortstops and of supplanting the New York Mets as the hottest team in town. "We haven 't won in quite a while," Martin said. "It's time. It's very important that the Yankees win. I'm tired of hearing about the Mets. They 're a good team, but I'm getting tired of hearing the mayor talk about them. I want him to talk about the Yankees. It's been a long time. Without injuries, we should be awful strong right down the line." Here is what Martin has in mind to return the Yankees to the top: Dave Righetti will pitch more innings this spring "to strengthen his arm," Martin said, "so he'll be ready right from the start." He said Righetti would pitch as many as four innings in B games. Martin said he considered using Righetti as a starter until the Yankees signed John Candelaria. "He won't be a starter this year," Martin said of his stopper . Mike Pagliarulo will hit righthanded against some left-handed pitchers. Pagliarulo hit .230 against left-handers and .236 against righthanders last year. "He's a natural ri ght-handed hitter," Martin said. Pagliarulo, who switch-hit in college, said, "Left-handed is more natural. You know the way things are around here. Things can always change. I'll do it. You have to be ready for everything here." Dave Winfield will bat second against some right-handed pitchers. The idea is lhat Winfiel d will see more fastballs balling behind Rickey Henderson. "If they want to throw curveballs, fine," Martin said. "We'll steal second and third." Don Slaught, generally thought to be the No. 1 catcher, will compete with Rick Ceronc and Joel Skinner for the job. "I wouldn 't say we have a regular catcher right now," Martin said. "It depends on who hits and who does the job like I want. I'm looking more toward calling a game and throwing people out than who hits." Martin said Roberto Kelly would bc his everyday center fielder, "but I want to let him know he's still got to earn the job." The team 's weakest link is its middle relief , he said. "I need a lefthander to get left-handers out," Martin said. "We'll put emphasis on (Pat) Clements and guys like that." Martin said the Yankees need a lefthanded hitter, "one guy to come off the bench and scare the opponent. I would be surprised if that person isn t here before we break camp." Martin intends to play aggressively in spring training and throughout the season, with "suicide squeezes, stealing home, pickoff plays, bringing the infield in. We're going to be aggressive knocking thc shortstop and second baseman down, which we have not been good at recently. But we used to be." Martin said he was better prepared to deal with the inevitable intrusions of owner George Steinbrenner. Players will wear ties while traveling, including to and from the stadium. "We may have to bring that up at the first captains-manager meeting," Ron Guidry said. Martin also said he expected Gary Ward , who has no defined role with the team, "to be unhappy. No question about that. But you never know what can happen with injuries." Martin 's fifth term as Yankee manager, and first spring-training camp since 1983, officially begins Friday with a workout of pitchers and catchers. The Yankees also have requested that Pagliarulo, Wayne Tolle- son and Jack Clark begin workouts Friday.Pagliarulo underwent off-season elbow surgery, Tolleson had shoulder surgery and Clark is recovering from an ankle sprain. Guidry, who underwent off-season shoulder surgery, displayed obvious bitterness toward the Yankees regarding the injury. Guidry said he believed his shoulder trouble was related to his late start last season. Guidry did not re-sign with the Yankees last year unuTMay 1. He made his first appearance for them 23 days later. "I got ready in four weeks when I normally have six or seven," Guidry said. "I might never have had this problem if the contract had been taken care of (earlier). I can 't prove that, but I don 't think the other side can say it didn 't have anything to do with it." Guidry, who started tossing two weeks ago, is not expected to be ready to pitch until mid-May. Rick Rhoden said he had been throwing without discomfort since December. Rhoden suffered a deep bruise in his right shoulder Aug. 19, when he was hit by a line drive. He did not pitch effectively after that. we know the history of the source." "I don 't believe that young man took those drugs," Hillsman said. There were nods and murmurs of agreement throughout the overflowing congregation. "I plan to ask the state's attorney to look into that." Williams could not be reached Thursday. Police said Marshall died early Saturday morning about 2 hours after running from two officers who approached him while he was standing and talking to the occupants of a car in the 1400 block of Nova Avenue, five blocks from the church where funeral services were held. Marshall ran into two other officers , police said , and sometime during that run , he swallowed six chunks of crack, a powerful cocaine derivative often smoked in a pipe. Police said Marshall was arrested at the same location Dec. 22 and charged with possessing cocaine with intent to distribute. A juveni le at the time, he was released to his mother's custody, police said. His father, Leroy Marshall, has denied the police account. Microscopic examination of Rico Marshall' s heart tissue for evidence of previous drug use will be conducted early next week, according to Dr. Charles Kokes, acting deputy chief Maryland medical examiner. State medical examiner John Smialek said this week that initial results show that Marshall died of cocaine intoxication . Although there is no evidence to dispute the police account ofhis arrest in December or the events immediately before his death , some of Marshall's friends remained unconvinced Thursday lhat the star footbal l player was involved in drugs. "I don't think drugs were a part of his life. I know drugs were not a part of his life," Valleo Simmons, one of Marshall 's football teammates, said as he walked into the church. "I still think there's something to it," he said, adding that he believes others may have forced Marshall to swallow the crack. Simmons, 18, declined to explain why he thinks that. That Rico Marshall, poised to play football for the University of South Carolina next fall, was laid to rest at the height of his accomplishments was a poignant reminder to a community under siege that another young life had been snuffed out by cocaine. Marshall's father told the mourners that he was prompted to stand after hearing a young friend sing "It 's So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday." I sat there while Anji was singing and Rico came to me and said, 'Dad, I want you to say something,' " he said. "Rico was proud and I loved him and ... he would love this, he would love this." The minister's message against drugs seemed to affect some members of the gathering. Outside the sanctuary in the vestibule stood a lone young man in aleather suitand fur jacket. His eyes were clear. "My hustling days are over," he said to no one in particular. Martin seems ready for his fifth term LA. Times-Washington Post Service Funeral held for football star ] J rJ r J3B £ .

Temple, the nation 's number one basketball team went to Chapel Hill and defeated (destroyed, demolished , or otherwise overwhelmed) North Carolina, the number five team in the nation. Yes, that powerhouse from thc Atlantic 10 conference pretty much dispelled all those rumors that they play a 'weak' schedule and barely beat thc teams they do play. A good examp le of this, these non-believers say, is Penn State. Thc Owls onl y beat the Nittany Lions by a point. One lousy point. Heck , when Villanova beat Geargetown by a point in thc national championship game nobody said, "Sorry, you guys aren 't National Champions." Still , skeptics say if tlie Penn State game doesn 't demonstrate the fact that thc Owls don 't deserve their ranking then nothing does. I disagree. Sure, Temple plays some teams that won 't bs in the top 64 come March. George Washington , St. Josephs and another Saint I can 't even spell arc good examples of these types of teams. Still , if they play the Owls tough, they can 't be that bad. For proof , I can only offer the two toughest games that Temple has had , UNLV and North Carolina. They played both of these teams away, and played both teams lough. At UNLV, Temple controlled thc majority of thc game, before the Runnin * Rebels pulled out a close victory in thc last five seconds of the game. A last chance inbounds play by Temple failed and thc Owls had the first , and only, loss. Then , against really their first test since becoming number one, the Owls hung close through a first half which they played almost entirely without their mighty freshman, Mark Macon. Macon was on the bench with two fouls for the first half , but when he made his appearance in the second half , 19 straight Temple points turned a Tarheel five point lead into a Temple 14 point rout. The story of the whole game was turnovers. Chaney said that if the Owls commited more than 14 turnovers they would lose to North Carolina. They committed eight. They won. By contrast, North Carolina committed 27 turnovers. There is just no way you can have that many turnovers and still win a ball game against a team of Temple's calibre. Despite the win, there will still be some skeptics out there and deservedly so. The ones who deserve to be skeptical are the ones who know the game. It's just like Craig Kishel said, "They are the best team in the nation and deserve to be number one, but they are still overrated." Bingo. It seems that most people, who are hesitant to admit that Temple is the best team in the nation , get infuriated when they are told so by everyone on every station. They can take solace in one fact, though , the tournament will be rolling around in a couple weeks and then Temple will have to prove they can play with the big boys. Rankings in the regular season mean nothing. The bottom line? The number one team beat the number five team and remained number one. Fortunately, they beat them by more than one point. by Mike Mullen Sports Editor Senior nigh t was especially important for the women Huskies, as thc 7444 victory over visiling Mansfield set a scho"*l record 20 wins, tied a school record for 10 wins in a row, and clinched thc Pennsylvania Conference Eastern Division title. Pam Bressi , Carla Shearer and Amy Wolf also played tficir last home games as Huskies as the three seniors prepare to lead thc Huskies inlo thc playoffs for their last lime. Theresa Lorenzi scorcd a gamehigh 28 points and Nina Alston chipped in 11 as tlie Huskies outplayed the Mountaineers in every aspect of thc game. A young Mansfield team , who just recentl y won their first conference game against East Stroudsburg , started three freshman and only had one senior on their roster. The young Mouniics struggled early to keep close to thc Huskies, but when their outstanding freshman guard , Sondra Tracy went out in the first half with a knee injury, Bloomsburg turned the close game into a rout and led at halftime, 39-19. ManSfield head coach Joe French said , "They (Bloomsburg) are thc best club in the conference and the best club we've played this year." French felt that if his team could stay out of foul trouble, slow thc pace down and play patient on offense his team would have a chance to stay close. Mansfield did all these things, but the one thing they couldn 't do was put the ball in the basket. Thc Mounties shot a horrendous 26 percent in the first half compared to thc Huskies who shot an incredible 54 percent. One of llie factors that kept Mansfield close was the play of Lisa Sherman. Sherm an 's scoring earl y kept the game close until Joe Bressi sent his troops into a zone defense and nullified Sherman 's mobility which cut down hcr open jump shots. When thc Huskies came out for the second half , Mansfield was a little more ready to play . The Mounties made a small run but weren 't able to mount any substantial comeback and fell 74-44. French said ,"The game was a tough one, I think wc saw the two best freshman guard s in the conference play tonight in (Sondra) Tracy and (Nina) Alston. They will certainly be a force to bc reckoned with in the nex t few years." Thc best sign for the Huskies as they ready for East Stroudsburg and thc playoffs, was thc play of Amy Wolf. "Amy 's been playing better lately. She is doing a real good job with thc time lhat she is in there. We need hcr size in there," Bressi said of the senior center. Wolf had eight points and 10 rebounds lo go along with her three blocked shots. Also a good sign for the upcoming playoffs was Carla Shearer. Shearer was 2-4 from the field and ended up with six points but that wasn't what impressed Bressi , "Carla is solid. She plays a solid game all the time and works hard when she is in there. It was good for her to do well tonight." Some other players also impressed Bressi , "Barb (Hall) had a nice game tonight , even though she didn 't score a lol of points (she finished with five), I thought Donna Cooper (four points , by Lincoln Weiss Staff Writer Joe Stepanski scorcd 18 points including four three pointers to lead thc Bloomsburg University Huskies to a 91-73 victory over the Mansfield University Mountaineers .

Between those four girls, wc have to get good playing time out of them ." Depth of thc bench played a key role last night and throughout the entire season. "We weren't as deep as ihey were," French said , "Our young playcrsjustarcn 't ready yet , while Joe (Bressi) has ten people he can play at any given time." "That is our advantage," Bressi said , "You could see how tired Mansfield was at halftime. We have people who can go in there and play and we don 't lose anything when we come off thc bench. That is a big key for us. We are running and running and still keeping fresh people in there." Thc win improves Bloomsburg's record to 20-5 overall and 9-1 in thc PSAC East.

Photo by ChrisLower by Lincoln Weiss Staff Writer If you were watching the Olympics this past week you had to be moved by the story of Dan Jansen. If you have not been watching here is the story. Before the start of the Olympics , Jansen 's sister, Jane, was suffering from leukemia. The family knew that she would soon die and Jansen told his sister that he would skip out on the Olympics which he trained his whole life for and stay at home to be with her. Jane told her brother to go to Calgary and compete, not necessarily win, but compete. Jensen then dedicated his Olympic efforts to his sister. ABC picked up on the story and even sent a crew to Jansen 's home in West Allis, Wise, to cover Jane's reaction as she watched her brother race. Then last Sunday morning, the day of Jansen s first event the 500M race, Jansen received a phone call from home. The phone call was to inform Jansen that his sister would not last much longer and allow him to talk to her. She could not respond to him , but he knew that she could understand him. A few hours later, right before Jansen was to compete, he received another call from home, his sister pasted away. In the true spirit of the Olympics and in memory of his sister, Jansen did compete in the SOOM event, an event he was expected to win. But he fell in the first turn and was disqualified from the race. Jansen flung his arms in the air as if to say "what else can happen to me today." Letters poured in to Jansen from all over the world and from other athletes in condolence. Some members of his family then came to Calgary to watch Jansen compete in the 1000M event on Thursday night. Jansen was skating the race of his life. He was on a world record pace. Then tragedy struck. On the last lap, Jansen fell again and you could see the agony in his face and you could feel a tear come to your eye as you watched this unfold on television. Jansen went to the infield and received a hug from his fiance, Natalie Grenier, a Canadian speedskater. Teammates also gave Jansen money to start a trust fund for his late sister's daughters. Jansen did not finish either race but was a winner in our hearts as he overcame impossible odds and gave his best. Dan Jansen, a true Olympian , and my early vote as 1988 Sportsman of the Year.
