Rip-off report
by GEORGE A. BOSCHINI
¦'College students are dumb.
They go" to school for four years
and graduate no better than
garbage men and street
cleaners ," stated Michael
Arcus in a recent interview with
the Campus Voice at the
Allenwood Federal Penetentiary. He is serving approximately 161 days for
counterfeiting gold coins. The
interview with Arcus was the

Refri gerator Rip-off Case.
For those of you who haven't
heard or did and forgot , Arcus
Brothers has been , renting
refrigerators to students for the
past four years that don't meet
college standards. The college
requires all refrigerators used
in the dorms to run at .5 amps.
Arcus ' refrigerators operate
anywhere between 1.36 and 1.65
amps. The result: overloaded
circuits , power blackouts and a
fire and safety hazard. If it
hadn't been for the repeated
power blackouts in Columbia
Hall, these refrigerators would
have gone unnoticed another
year.
After numerous power
outages, school officials
initiated an investigation in
hopes of locating the cause.
They discovered the Arcus
RSjfTffl N
Brothers refrigerators were
responsible for the power
overload and immediately
ordered them unplugged,
permanently. That's when the
trouble started.
The students, realizing they
couldn't use the refrigerators
returned them to Arcus for a
refund where they were told
that they had signed a legal
contract and no money would be
refunded. As a result, these
students were stuck with a
refrigerator they couldn 't use.
In other words, each student
was out $31 or $41, depending on
the model rented. Some students who fel t that
they had been ripped off
complained to CGA, members
of the college administration
and finally the Campus Voice,
hoping that something could be
done. This is what the Campus
Voice has uncovered .
During this past summer,
Michael Arcus contacted John
Trathen , Assistant Director of
Student Activities and the
College Union about renting
refrigerators on campus. At this
time it was explained that he
must submit a written bid to the
college in order to be considered
for a vending permit. Also at
this time, according to Mr.
Trathen . Arcus was informed of
the
college
regulations
governing the types of
refrigerators used on campus.
Michael Arcus stated that his
refrigerators: tnet tYtese staridards andithere would be- no
problems with that.

CGA reportson bank,
town gown, refrig. deal
by JACK FURNISS
Those who attended the CGA
meeting held Monday night
heard reports concerning three
current,, controversial issues.
Some" positive steps were
discussed involving the Town
Gown situation , the Student
Bank inadequacies, and the
Arcus refrigerator scandal.
John Abell , Director of
Housing, on behalf of the Town
Gown Committee , cited the offcampus housing situation as the
new thrust with which his group
is dealing. He stated that there
are at least 1640 students living
off-campus and that many are
incurring complex problems
that are difficult to work out.
Mr. Abell went on to say that
the committee is concentrating
on three ideas: A better communications Jink among offcampus students ; Ah expansion
of the quality and quanti ty of
services available to these
students ; And the implementation
of
more
educational programming for
off-campus tenants dealing with
topics such as landlord rights
and responsibilities. The Town
Gown Committee works to
develop a better rapport between students and town
residents on key issues involving both .
The Student Bank Report
mentioned three positive steps
that are intended to alleviate
the long waiting lines that have
been exasperating to students.
The three include : Requiring
only an endorsement of the
check and phone number to
complete a transaction ; hiring
a second full-time employee;
and the possibility of expanding
operations somewhat with
another teller and an added
coun ter. A revision of the
banking hours to open Wednesday afternoons is still in the
planning stages, and no con-
clusions have been reached. The general council was inr
formed of the current status of
the Arcus refrigerator dilema.
Some
students
rented
refrigerators from Arcus Bros:,
later . realizing that they
required too much electricity to
adhere' to
the
college
regulations for the dormitories.
Arcus Bros, have refused to
refund money to those students
based on the fact that each
entered a valid contract .
It was proposed that studen ts
organize together to provide a
viable force to combat the
problem with petitions and
related action. Bill Boyer, CGA
Treasurer , has been investigating and plans to approach the Lawyer Committee
and the Town Gown Committee
to work out the appropriate
procedures to seek justice.
The voting members of CGA
passed a m otion to reopen the
Elwell Games Room and to
allocate $550, from the Reserve
for Refunds and New Projects ,
to cover personnel and salaries
for the first semester. Another
motion was carried to allot $450
from the same account to
enable the Council for Exceptional Children (CEO. to
send 40 members to a convention in Philadelphia. The
trip will provide an extensive
learning experience for all
involved.
Another proposal suggested
running buses to away athletic
events to generate interest in
athletics at BSC and to support
our athletes. The motion entailed the initiation of a special
account to be taken out of the
Reserve for Refunds and New
Projects in the amount of $3000.
The buses will provide free
transport ation , however ,
students will be required to
place a $2 deposit to be returned
after the trips; The motion was
H
put to a vote ax\<\ carried. .
The council also agreed to
purchase a 22 inch black and
white television set for the
ground floor of Elwell Hall. The
TV is to be purchased for no
more than $190.

that on every refrigerator Flick

gets four dollars a semester " or

number of ways. No money is

refrigerators.
Nothing more was heard from
Arcus Brothers concerning the
refrigerators until the beginning of the semester when Flick
Brothers were distributing their
refrigerators next to the College
Store. It was at this time that
Arcus Brothers illegally came
on campus ( they had no vending
permit) and started to rent their
own refrigerators. This was
immediately called to the attention of John Trathen. At this
point, he went over to their
truck and asked them to leave
because they did not hage a
permit.
- '
According to Mr. Trathen he
again asked Mike Arcus if the
refrigerators met . college
requirements and was told they
did. Citing the long lines and not
wanting to cause a scene, Mr.
Trathen told them to finish
renting the remaining four or
five refrigerators and then to
leave the campus. He left word
with security to make sure this
order was carried out.
Arcus did leave, but students
still continued to go to their

The deviFs sea
-. •¦-': ,
by DUANE LONG
Clark Evans and myself
weren't able to explain the
weird ph enomena we had
previously experienced, up to
now . After all, it's a drastic
thing to conclude that you're in
an alternate dimension. Surely
we had plenty of experiences to
base this conclusion on, but the
sight of that damn violet sun
was the clincher.
Our radio revealed nothing
but static on all channels and
our position couldn 't be
determined in the accustomed
sense because the sun had risen
in the western sky. Well, actually we did figure it out , but it
made no goddamn sense, just
liek everything else in this
place!
When Clark and I left the
plane we were taken aback by
what was in effect the total
contradiction of color as we
knew it. The ocean was a rolling
red tide which lapped at the
edge of a black beach. Far
behind the dark sand dunes the
trees grew stunted ; pruned by
the salt breeze of the nearby
sea. The bark of the trees was of
an accustomed brown but those
blood-red leaves lent an air of
the bizzare to the scene. The
violet sun filled much of the
ochre sky with its glowing
countenance as we returned to
our Cessna-440. We were so
wrapped up in the exploration of
our new surroundings that we
our
momentarily fo rgot
harrowing experience of the
previous evening.
In retrospect it all became
It appears that BSC students have been the butt of
a very sick joke and no one is stepping forward to set
things straight/¦ So, it is up to US to set the machinery
in motion.
From the facts we have collected it is evident that
the Arcus Brothers knowingly rented refrigerators to
BSC students which did not meet specifications set up
by the state as being within safety limits for in dorm
operation.
- On several occasions they have refuted this accusation arguing that they had the school's permission
to sell their refrigerators on campus. That permission
was never granted but that is not what is in question
here.
The real issue is that the Arcus' have refused to
exchange the refrigerators or refund the money.
As Michael Arcus said, "If the students are dumb
enough to rent them, they're dumb enough to keep
them."
After exploring all the avenues as explained in the
front page story, the only recourse left is to boycott
the Arcus Brother's Stereo Center and take our business elsewhere.
The impact of our banding together to boycott the
store will serve to drive home our feelings of discontent.
If the loss of our business means anything to them,
they will take action to set things straight, if not, then
it really doesn't matter anyway.
The important thing is to let the Arcus' know that
we are aware of what they're doing and we do not plan
on taking it sitting down. We're going to fight against
an infringementon ourrights.
The CAMPUS VOICE is taking the first step in this
direction by not accepting any of their advertising
until the situation is ratified.
We are boycotting the Arcus brothers in the best
way we can, what are YOU going to do?

clear. Somehow we teleported
from our dimension to this
world, and another dimension.
Our instruments contradicted
everything 'we did , simpl y
because they were not made to
work in a universe where the
laws of physics were so vastly
different from our own. We
were here alright but where was
my brother Steven? It was a
desperate yet inquisitive impulse which made me switch on
the radio again. .
"Calling Navy CN48A73...
CN48A73 come in ", I began.
"Forget it Bob," Clark admonished, "they're lost back
home." I was inclined to agree
with Evans but before I could
switch off the radio we heard a
man 's voice through the
receiver : "Mayday! Mayday!
Navy CN48A73 calling on all
emergency aircraft channels...
We are flying in zero visibility,
instruments are out... Please
acknowledge!" I gripped the
microphone and gav e our
position, when we received the
following reply : "Say again
Cessna... We barely read you.
Our position is... Holy hell!
Where did all that f—ing light
come from!?" Clark and I went
outside the Cessna, for a sudden
sonic boom shook the plane and
sonic booms can only be caused
by aircraft.
The rain-drenched Navy
chopper came cruising from out
of nowhere; flying upside down.
The pilot righted his craft and
proceeded to slow down for a
landing. Just behind it we could
see a great hole. Undoubtedly
we had flown through just such
a hole at the time of our
crossing. Suddenly a bolt of
lightening came shooting out of
the dark opening, striking the
helicopter and sending it into a
series of wild gyrations.
It was a weird sight for the
instant the bolt appeared the
color scheme of this place
returned meomentarily to that
which we had seen while
making our night landing. The
trees were green, the beach
white, and the water blue once
again. Then, just as the bright
flash of lightening quickly died,
the other colors returned to
assault our vision once more.
Despite this breathtaking
display we were more interested in the fat e of the Navy
helicopter , which had been
crippled by the blast of
lightening. The chopper was at
five hundred feet and spiralling
downward in an un powered but
controlled descent. It planted
into the orange sea only twenty
yards from shore. Evans and I
swam out to her and climbed
inside. She was sinking fast , the
orange seawater appearing
blue under the white glow of her
cabin lights. We were met with
a frantic sight. Two hehneted
crewmen
were
trying
desperately to free a / trapped

the twisted wreckage of the
smashed power hoist and up to
his neck in the swirling water of
the sinking craft , was my

cannot assume that everyone
knows how the ISC system of
bid distribution works and since
those not involved in the Greek
system also take part in observing the frantic festivities,
it's only fair that they should get
a little background on what goes
on.
Unlike
fraternity
bid
distribution where rushees
(prospective pledges) choose
the fraternity they will pledge,
providing of course that they
get a bid from that fraternity, a
girl rushing a sorority must list
her preferences as to which
sorority she would like to join. If
she gets a bid from her first
preference, she must pledge
that one. If she doesn 't get a bid
from her first but from her
second, then she must pledge
there, and so on.
And as many knpw, it's when
these bids come out that the
Union is, a dangerous place to
wander about idlely.
Now for those that have never
seen nor heard about it , bid distribution for sororities in the
past took place during the week
in an atmosphere which can
only be described as nothing
loss than insanity , comparable
only to the 1960 riots at the
Democratic National Convention in Chicago.
As far as sororities are
concerned, there is a high risk
factor and it is a challenge to
see how many future pledges
will survive the holocaust.
But I'm not the only one who
considered this event crazy or
even frightening. Those crying
for the return of the gladiator
fights cringed and some of the
land's bravest fled. There are
many others, some of whom
don't even attend school "here.
When I last spoke to the local
historian from Orangeville, he
remarked that sorority bid
distribution at Bloomsburg
State College is rowdier than
the cockfights behind Rufus
Wheatherby's barn in the late
1800's used to be.
But don't get me wrong. I
have foun d out that even though
bids were distributed last
Saturday it was just as crazy, if
not crazier, and according to
some of the sadistic and
masochistic sorority sister ,
more enjoyable.

Diary reveals Voyage of esqierieiiqe
Submitted by ALI JAMILY
Our canoeing trip initiated
shortly after finals concluded in
the Spring Session of 1976, was
quite interesting and highly
educational from my point of
view. In Iran , my native
country, it is rather dry and
rivers are barely visible, in
contrast with this country's
overwhelming water . transportation. It is not clear to me
whether originating from a dry
and hot country has affected my
feelings about this trip. What I
will try to accomplish now, is to
relate my experience in a log of
the entire course.
I will adhere to a
chronological type of order.
May 17th, 1976
Our instructor, Dr. Bresett,
presented an in-depth lecture
about safety, security and
general well being regarding
the trip. When the lecture
terminated we were given a
demonstration about the actual
paddling movements and
control of the canoe. Purposely,
the canoes were tipped over for
the sake of experiencing such a
disaster.
May 18th, 1976
On the agenda for today, was
preliminary canoeing in the
Susquehanna river. This was
well-planned and took into
consideration many novices like
myself. The reasons being that
the water was quite calm and
control of the canoe was easily
attainable. However, this asset
was not made profitable by my
partner and myself, since our
canoe overturned. My partner's
presence on the previous day of
instruction probably could have
avoided this embarassing
mishap.
May 19th, 1976
Today we were scheduled to
leave at approximately 9:30
a.m. Our destination was a local
creek with a slightly greater
challenge than the previous
day. Unfortunately, it began to
rain and Dr. Bresett was forced
to postpone the plans for a few
hours. In the meantime, we
were brought to the east side of
the Nelson Field House where
an obstacle course had been
erected, and we all had a
physically beneficial time. At
2:00p.m., the weather condition
was satisfactory enough to go
on with canoeing.
May 20th , 1976
Around 11:00 a.m., we-left for
canoeing in a nearby creek. I
was quite elated when Dr.
Bresett had chosen me for his
partner, and as a result, I could
learn from his experience.
Because of safety and
emergency reasons, our canoe
was positioned last in the fleet .
The canoe of Bernie and his
partner Patty was placed in
front of all 12 canoes. Again,
this was done for safety and
security because of Bernie's
special talent . The rapids
around the first curve proved to
be a problem to Jack and Linda,
as their canoe tipped over.
Linda was holding the branches
of a tree on the bank of the river
and Jack was struggling to
maneuver the canoe ashore. We
approached the scene just in
time to assist them.
About half an hour later, we
continued the voyage last in line
again. Through almost every
rapid the same procedure of the
first tipped over canoe was
repeated. I was confident that
we would never overturn
because of the well experienced

May 21st, 1976
Early this day, after packing
all of our persona] needs, the
twelve canoes were loaded on a
trailer and our trip toward
Delaware river began. After
unloading the trailers and
having lunch in Hancock, N.Y.,
our main paddling started. We
were arranged very nicely into
three groups; our group consisted of eight canoers, evenly
distributed according to sex.
After five hours paddling, we
camped without anyone being a
victim of a tipped over canoe.
May 22nd, 1976
After eating a late breakfast,
we duplicated yesterdays
lunching procedure. We quit
approximately 4:00 'p.m. and
found a nice place for camping.
Our groups were very well
organized and typically
stereotyped. The girls proved
their worth by making a
delicious dinner . The male
members in our group, Dr.
Bresett, Ed and myself set up
the tent and built the fire. After
eating we huddled around the
fire and conversed, after
hanging our wet clothes to be
dried.

However, this confidence, as a
bad omen, back fired and we
joined the rest. All I remember
of this occurrence was the
panicing vision of the canoe
over the top of my head. My
first impulse, naturally, was to
inhale after coming to the
surface.^Next I glanced around
for my partner who seemed to
have a mutual feeling for my
safety. The only canoe which
did not tip over on that day was

All preliminary indicators
show that the , unit mastery
method is a success in 48-101
General Psychology, the instructors Drs. Cohen and
Schick , reported to Vice
President Wolfe and Dean
Drake, Friday, October 1.
"The first several weeks are
usually accompanied by some
student disappointment", said
Dr. Schick. Dr. Cohen added,
"Until they learn that regular
disciplined study is needed."
The instructors noted that
only 10 per cent of the students
(a total of 70) are still on the
first unit after four weeks of
instruction. The unit mastery
system allows the student to
progress at his or her own pace.
Over 75 per cent of those
enrolled have completed unit
one and are on either unit two or
three.
The student' s grade is
determined by the number of
units successfully completed.
There are 171 (26 per cent)
students who are progressing at
a much faster than average
pace. Withdrawals account for
-2.5 per cent and 3 per cent of the
enrollees have not yet taken a
unit test.
The unit mastery method is
used at many universities. The
approach used here at BSC is
based upon well-established
learning principles and was
developed at the University of

Students who are thinking
about the possibility of attending law school are invited to
consult Martin Gildea of the
Department of Political Science
who is the campus pre-law
adviser in Bakeless 210 (MWF

He points out that there is no

to enter law school do not
materialize. The best success
for admission to law school, he
feels, is a high ,GPA (over 3.00)
and a h igh LSAT score (around
600) and this can be helped by
choosing a major that makes
students think , a broad, liberal
education and a lot of hard work
beginning with their first
semester as freshmen.

The positive features include
studen t self-pacing, development of good study habits,
immediate and informative
feedback after each unit test,
frequent testing, individual
tutoring when needed, and preestablished criterion for grade
determination. The student selfstudy is enriched by films and
the opportunity for discussion
with the instructors and the
learning assistants. .
The students may take unit
tests any day of the week. The
test center , Room 22 Old
Science, is open Monday
through Thursday between 12
and 4 pm, and Friday from 9 to
10 am , and 12 to 1pm. There are
15 learning assistants in addition to the two instructors
assigned to the course. There
are at least four assistants and
one instructor available every
test day.
There are features about the
course that are seen as negative
by the students. First, the
course is different from the
traditional lecture. This in itself
is cause for alarm from , the
student' s point of view.
Secondly, the course requires
regular diligent study. Students
report that this is the point that
causes them the most upset.
They are required to study
while roommates and freinds
appear not to be studying.
It is true that the unit mastery
method does not lend itself to
cram studying; it requires
regular studying. The benefit is
a much higher level or mastery
of the subject matter. Students
who have completed mastery
courses report that they had
developed study habits that
they now use for all courses.

Hartford^
He picks a whole bunch of
banjo. He plays hypnotic fiddle.
He creates magic with a six
string guitar. He 's been
reviewed as "the only lyricist in
current popular music who 's fit
to be called a peot. ''
Sophisticated word man, dry
humorist, artist, peot, riverboat
hand — he's John Hartford.
Hartford's roots are deep in
Bluegrass, and his early music
was much influenced by Earl
Scruggs. As his career has
progressed he has developed a
very personal style, still
Bluegrass-orientated but with
off-beat arrangements and
lyrics which reflect his own
unique ,
humorous
and
sophisticated perspective.
In the years since he quit
performing with a band, John
Hartford has developed one of
the most dynamic, entertaining
and exciting one man shows
ever to grace a stage. He not
only ranks among the best on
banjo and fiddle, he has the
ability to project his personnel
magnetism across the huge gap
between
performer
and
audience.
Hartford was born in New
York City, and was raised in St.
Louis by a doctor-father and a
painter-mother. He got his first
banjo (beat up, no head) at ten.
Learned to play banjo, fiddle,
do.bro and guitar in that
chronology and order of
preference.

What do you think
of financial aid?
Easy listening
guitar and p iano
by DIANE ABRUZZEE
Perry Leopold, the opening act for the Homecoming concert,
plays acoustic and pop-folk music on the guitar and piano. Last
July, Leopold toured with Jan is Ian, opening her concerts in
Harrisburg and Scranton, at her request.
According to The Evening Bulletin, his material is "largely
personal, with a richly baroque, melodic side offset by dramatic,
masculine accents and tied to finely fingered guitar figures and
bittersweet chordings that pay off."
Leopold has been a guitarist-singer-songwritersince the sixties,
and his new material is considered by many to be more direct that
the abstract songs he performed previously..
Perry Leopold has been playing the piano for one year, and the
guitar for twenty years. Although his music follows no particular
style, it is easy to listen to.
A concert reviewer from Montgomery County Community
College reports that his songs tell stories of places and people by
using similes and analogies. The Montgomery County reviewer,
Molly Fitzgerald, sees Leopold as a brilliant performer and "a
lover of simplistic beauty".
Elyn Rysz I haven't had any
problem receiving financial aid
here at BSC, but more consideration should be given to the
student who is paying for his
education by himself. The
student's financial aid is based
on a PCS form and in some
cases, even though his parents
may be making good money,
the student may pay for his
education with no help from his
parents.
Mary White - The financial
aid'office does an excellent job
considering all the bureaucracy
we must contend with. The laws
of all the government agencies
involyed are so complex and
overlapping that many times
it's hard for us, employees of
the financial aid office , to do all
the work required. We do the
best we can and work harder
than most of the other departments on campus.

Toby Rank
Soccer 's bright f reshman
by RICK SITLER
Different faces, different
places, but the name of the
game's the same, from high
school to college sports. Many
have tried but only a handful
have been chosen to enter the
ring, to compete, to gain that
unprecedented varsity letter.
A young man has appeared,
his purpose, to play that which
he holds dear to his heart,
soccer. The frosh hails from
Conestoga High School, where
in the past he has added to his
name , five long years of
competition, five grueling years
to see a dream come true. That
freshman is Toby Rank his
position Left inside.
Ranks main reasons for
challenging the goals of soccer,
in years past , were he felt "he
was too small for football," and
"likes soccer " and s 'really
enjoys playing ". Mr. Rank cited
the main reason though was due
to the fact that his two older
brothers played soccer.
Rank's views on the team,
stressed the importance of their
"fast offense", and the understanding that the team is
"basically offense-minded."
Feeling the team is mainly
"young and still learning,"
Rank felt each player was "still
feeling each other out", and the
team possesses "a lot of talent
and it would be just a matter of
time before they learn to control
it".
majoring
in
Presentl y
Administrations ,
Business
Rank felt his future was "quite
distant" at the moment, "and
time would tell". He expressed
a wish to travel , to see the rest
of the U.S.A. before he settles
down to the future.
Rank's choice of B.S.C. lay in
the credentials of the campus'
"good reputation for business."
Rank felt he had "never seen a
nicer campus", and that a
feeling of warmth seemed to
surround the school, where he
felt, "the people make you feel
good".
With soccer being reinstituted
at B.S.C. after a long hibernation period of 20 years, the
program looks sound , the
Coach
recruitment
by
Mingrone is excellent, and the
addition of many new players,
including Toby Rank, tends to
point to a well productive old
but new sport at B.S.C. in the
years to come.
Though the future may be
distant for the youth, the
present is clear. His name has
been added to the roster of a
sport old to the world but young
and promising to us, a challenge
to .its by-product; America's
own game of football.

Judy Carter visits BSC
Happy rushee lets all her emotions out as she receives
a bid from one of the many sororities on campus. Now she
is a pledge.

by LOUIS HUNSINGER
Judy Carter, daughter-in-law
of Democratic Presidential
candidate , Jimmy Carter ,
visited the BSC campus on
Thursday, September 30. The
visit was sponsored by the BSC
Young Democrats.
She met with students in the
Union and the Commons ,
talking with some at length .
When asked why she thought
her father-in-law would win in
November, she stated, "The
American people are starting to
realize that Carter is the choice
of the average American while
Gerald Ford is a pawn of the
upper-class and of big
business."
She said the Carter campaign
was pretty tense up until the
first debate but they have
started loosening up now.
"I think Pennsylvania will be
a battleground state but I think
we're in pretty good shape
here," she said of Carter 's
chances in Pennsylvania. She
went on to say that after the
next polls the Carter campaign
is going to find out how it's
doing and if it's not doing as
well as expected then they 're
going to start digging in and
fighting hard.
Carter was very impressed
with the BSC campus and
students as she visited here
accompanied by Blu Middleton,
Carter 's roommate and best
friend at Annapolis, who is
presently the Central Pennsylvania Coordinator of the
Carter Campaign.
She then went to the
Bloomsburg Fair for an ap-
pearance there.
In recent days the BSC Young
Democrats have hosted Senator
Franklin Kury, Al Benedict,
candidate for Auditor General
and Ted Stuban, candidate for
state representative.
The next meeting of the BSC
Young Democrats will be in the
Blue Room of the Kehr Union at
7-:00 p.m. Thursday, October 14.
The Retreat State Hospital,
Hunlock Creek, is planning its
annual Christmas program.
Any campus organization interested in a service projec t or
just interested in helping out is
welcome to aid the hospital
program .
The program , sponsored by
the Hospital 's Volunteer
Resources Office, is presented
to meet the individual oatient
needs in celebrating the holiday
season.
Activities that a group or
organization may wish to plan
are a carolling excursion to
Retreat State, giving a ward
party or boulevard trip, or
donating gifts for male and
female patients. Monetary gifts
to sponsor an activity are also
welcome. '

they're dumb enough to keep
them."
This brings us up to the time
of the power problems. What
has been done by CGA and the
college administration in
students behalf ? About as much
as can be done according to
Robert Norton, Dean of Student
Life. He states that there is
nothing that the college can
legally do to Arcus Brothers. He
did express his sympathy to
those involved and, promised to
help prevent anything like this
from happening again.
CGA also had little hope in
rectifying the situation. According to Bill Boyer the contract the students signed is legal
and Arcus cannot be freed to
return the student's money. He
is, however, trying to get all
those students involved to sign a
petition which may be used at a
later date. If you haven't signed
one of these petitions and you
are involved, please do so as
soon as possible.

match to Millersville State 4-3.
Bloomsburg fell from a three to
one lead to lose the game at
Millersville. Then on their own
home field at Redman Stadium
the Huskies dropped their
fourth loss of the season, bowing
to York College 2-1. Both were
hard fought, and as the score
shows, close games for
Bloomsburg , but unfortunately
Coach Mingrone 's young team
came out on the short end of
both scores. ,
The Huskies came into
Wednesday's game after a 4-3
victory over Wilkes College last
week! But the team could not
keep the victories coming. Jim
Mailey opened the scoring for
Bloomsburg with a three yard
shot to beat the Millersville
goalie. Later in the first half , it
was Mailey again with
Bloomsburg's second goal, this
time with an assist from Tim
Delp.
It seemed for sure the
Huskies were in full control of
the game, especially after Toby
Rank scored from six yards out
to give the Huskies their third,
but final , goal of the day. Steve
Buck was responsible for the
pass that set up that last goal.
After Dave Melchior scored for

with York College, it didn't
work out that way.
Bloomsburg scored on only
one of their twenty-eight shots
on goal , the lone goal coming on
a three yard slap by Jim Mailey
late in the first half. It was the
second half again that led to the

The women's tennis matches with Mary wood and Misericordia

Repetition in the workouts has

"The attitude of the team is

Coach Puhl.

Rip-off report
by GEORGE A. BOSCHINI
¦'College students are dumb.
They go" to school for four years
and graduate no better than
garbage men and street
cleaners ," stated Michael
Arcus in a recent interview with
the Campus Voice at the
Allenwood Federal Penetentiary. He is serving approximately 161 days for
counterfeiting gold coins. The
interview with Arcus was the

final piece in the already,
cbmplex luzfcle of the Great
Refri gerator Rip-off Case.
For those of you who haven't
heard or did and forgot , Arcus
Brothers has been , renting
refrigerators to students for the
past four years that don't meet
college standards. The college
requires all refrigerators used
in the dorms to run at .5 amps.
Arcus ' refrigerators operate
anywhere between 1.36 and 1.65
amps. The result: overloaded
circuits , power blackouts and a
fire and safety hazard. If it
hadn't been for the repeated
power blackouts in Columbia
Hall, these refrigerators would
have gone unnoticed another
year.
After numerous power
outages, school officials
initiated an investigation in
hopes of locating the cause.
They discovered the Arcus
RSjfTffl N
Brothers refrigerators were
responsible for the power
overload and immediately
ordered them unplugged,
permanently. That's when the
trouble started.
The students, realizing they
couldn't use the refrigerators
returned them to Arcus for a
refund where they were told
that they had signed a legal
contract and no money would be
refunded. As a result, these
students were stuck with a
refrigerator they couldn 't use.
In other words, each student
was out $31 or $41, depending on
the model rented. Some students who fel t that
they had been ripped off
complained to CGA, members
of the college administration
and finally the Campus Voice,
hoping that something could be
done. This is what the Campus
Voice has uncovered .
During this past summer,
Michael Arcus contacted John
Trathen , Assistant Director of
Student Activities and the
College Union about renting
refrigerators on campus. At this
time it was explained that he
must submit a written bid to the
college in order to be considered
for a vending permit. Also at
this time, according to Mr.
Trathen . Arcus was informed of
the
college
regulations
governing the types of
refrigerators used on campus.
Michael Arcus stated that his
refrigerators: tnet tYtese staridards andithere would be- no
problems with that.
As it turned put, no bid was

CGA reportson bank,
town gown, refrig. deal
by JACK FURNISS
Those who attended the CGA
meeting held Monday night
heard reports concerning three
current,, controversial issues.
Some" positive steps were
discussed involving the Town
Gown situation , the Student
Bank inadequacies, and the
Arcus refrigerator scandal.
John Abell , Director of
Housing, on behalf of the Town
Gown Committee , cited the offcampus housing situation as the
new thrust with which his group
is dealing. He stated that there
are at least 1640 students living
off-campus and that many are
incurring complex problems
that are difficult to work out.
Mr. Abell went on to say that
the committee is concentrating
on three ideas: A better communications Jink among offcampus students ; Ah expansion
of the quality and quanti ty of
services available to these
students ; And the implementation
of
more
educational programming for
off-campus tenants dealing with
topics such as landlord rights
and responsibilities. The Town
Gown Committee works to
develop a better rapport between students and town
residents on key issues involving both .
The Student Bank Report
mentioned three positive steps
that are intended to alleviate
the long waiting lines that have
been exasperating to students.
The three include : Requiring
only an endorsement of the
check and phone number to
complete a transaction ; hiring
a second full-time employee;
and the possibility of expanding
operations somewhat with
another teller and an added
coun ter. A revision of the
banking hours to open Wednesday afternoons is still in the
planning stages, and no con-
clusions have been reached. The general council was inr
formed of the current status of
the Arcus refrigerator dilema.
Some
students
rented
refrigerators from Arcus Bros:,
later . realizing that they
required too much electricity to
adhere' to
the
college
regulations for the dormitories.
Arcus Bros, have refused to
refund money to those students
based on the fact that each
entered a valid contract .
It was proposed that studen ts
organize together to provide a
viable force to combat the
problem with petitions and
related action. Bill Boyer, CGA
Treasurer , has been investigating and plans to approach the Lawyer Committee
and the Town Gown Committee
to work out the appropriate
procedures to seek justice.
The voting members of CGA
passed a m otion to reopen the
Elwell Games Room and to
allocate $550, from the Reserve
for Refunds and New Projects ,
to cover personnel and salaries
for the first semester. Another
motion was carried to allot $450
from the same account to
enable the Council for Exceptional Children (CEO. to
send 40 members to a convention in Philadelphia. The
trip will provide an extensive
learning experience for all
involved.
Another proposal suggested
running buses to away athletic
events to generate interest in
athletics at BSC and to support
our athletes. The motion entailed the initiation of a special
account to be taken out of the
Reserve for Refunds and New
Projects in the amount of $3000.
The buses will provide free
transport ation , however ,
students will be required to
place a $2 deposit to be returned
after the trips; The motion was
H
put to a vote ax\<\ carried. .
The council also agreed to
purchase a 22 inch black and
white television set for the
ground floor of Elwell Hall. The
TV is to be purchased for no
more than $190.
to Flick Brothers for the upcoming year. It should be noted
that on every refrigerator Flick
Brothers rents to students, CGA
gets four dollars a semester " or
six dollars a year which is
returned to the students in any
number of ways. No money is
returned to the school from
Arcus '
renting
students
refrigerators.
Nothing more was heard from
Arcus Brothers concerning the
refrigerators until the beginning of the semester when Flick
Brothers were distributing their
refrigerators next to the College
Store. It was at this time that
Arcus Brothers illegally came
on campus ( they had no vending
permit) and started to rent their
own refrigerators. This was
immediately called to the attention of John Trathen. At this
point, he went over to their
truck and asked them to leave
because they did not hage a
permit.
- '
According to Mr. Trathen he
again asked Mike Arcus if the
refrigerators met . college
requirements and was told they
did. Citing the long lines and not
wanting to cause a scene, Mr.
Trathen told them to finish
renting the remaining four or
five refrigerators and then to
leave the campus. He left word
with security to make sure this
order was carried out.
Arcus did leave, but students
still continued to go to their
store to rent tYiern.^Vrt\eri asking
Mike Arcuswhy he continued to
rent these illegal refrigerators^

The deviFs sea
-. •¦-': ,
by DUANE LONG
Clark Evans and myself
weren't able to explain the
weird ph enomena we had
previously experienced, up to
now . After all, it's a drastic
thing to conclude that you're in
an alternate dimension. Surely
we had plenty of experiences to
base this conclusion on, but the
sight of that damn violet sun
was the clincher.
Our radio revealed nothing
but static on all channels and
our position couldn 't be
determined in the accustomed
sense because the sun had risen
in the western sky. Well, actually we did figure it out , but it
made no goddamn sense, just
liek everything else in this
place!
When Clark and I left the
plane we were taken aback by
what was in effect the total
contradiction of color as we
knew it. The ocean was a rolling
red tide which lapped at the
edge of a black beach. Far
behind the dark sand dunes the
trees grew stunted ; pruned by
the salt breeze of the nearby
sea. The bark of the trees was of
an accustomed brown but those
blood-red leaves lent an air of
the bizzare to the scene. The
violet sun filled much of the
ochre sky with its glowing
countenance as we returned to
our Cessna-440. We were so
wrapped up in the exploration of
our new surroundings that we
our
momentarily fo rgot
harrowing experience of the
previous evening.
In retrospect it all became
It appears that BSC students have been the butt of
a very sick joke and no one is stepping forward to set
things straight/¦ So, it is up to US to set the machinery
in motion.
From the facts we have collected it is evident that
the Arcus Brothers knowingly rented refrigerators to
BSC students which did not meet specifications set up
by the state as being within safety limits for in dorm
operation.
- On several occasions they have refuted this accusation arguing that they had the school's permission
to sell their refrigerators on campus. That permission
was never granted but that is not what is in question
here.
The real issue is that the Arcus' have refused to
exchange the refrigerators or refund the money.
As Michael Arcus said, "If the students are dumb
enough to rent them, they're dumb enough to keep
them."
After exploring all the avenues as explained in the
front page story, the only recourse left is to boycott
the Arcus Brother's Stereo Center and take our business elsewhere.
The impact of our banding together to boycott the
store will serve to drive home our feelings of discontent.
If the loss of our business means anything to them,
they will take action to set things straight, if not, then
it really doesn't matter anyway.
The important thing is to let the Arcus' know that
we are aware of what they're doing and we do not plan
on taking it sitting down. We're going to fight against
an infringementon ourrights.
The CAMPUS VOICE is taking the first step in this
direction by not accepting any of their advertising
until the situation is ratified.
We are boycotting the Arcus brothers in the best
way we can, what are YOU going to do?

clear. Somehow we teleported
from our dimension to this
world, and another dimension.
Our instruments contradicted
everything 'we did , simpl y
because they were not made to
work in a universe where the
laws of physics were so vastly
different from our own. We
were here alright but where was
my brother Steven? It was a
desperate yet inquisitive impulse which made me switch on
the radio again. .
"Calling Navy CN48A73...
CN48A73 come in ", I began.
"Forget it Bob," Clark admonished, "they're lost back
home." I was inclined to agree
with Evans but before I could
switch off the radio we heard a
man 's voice through the
receiver : "Mayday! Mayday!
Navy CN48A73 calling on all
emergency aircraft channels...
We are flying in zero visibility,
instruments are out... Please
acknowledge!" I gripped the
microphone and gav e our
position, when we received the
following reply : "Say again
Cessna... We barely read you.
Our position is... Holy hell!
Where did all that f—ing light
come from!?" Clark and I went
outside the Cessna, for a sudden
sonic boom shook the plane and
sonic booms can only be caused
by aircraft.
The rain-drenched Navy
chopper came cruising from out
of nowhere; flying upside down.
The pilot righted his craft and
proceeded to slow down for a
landing. Just behind it we could
see a great hole. Undoubtedly
we had flown through just such
a hole at the time of our
crossing. Suddenly a bolt of
lightening came shooting out of
the dark opening, striking the
helicopter and sending it into a
series of wild gyrations.
It was a weird sight for the
instant the bolt appeared the
color scheme of this place
returned meomentarily to that
which we had seen while
making our night landing. The
trees were green, the beach
white, and the water blue once
again. Then, just as the bright
flash of lightening quickly died,
the other colors returned to
assault our vision once more.
Despite this breathtaking
display we were more interested in the fat e of the Navy
helicopter , which had been
crippled by the blast of
lightening. The chopper was at
five hundred feet and spiralling
downward in an un powered but
controlled descent. It planted
into the orange sea only twenty
yards from shore. Evans and I
swam out to her and climbed
inside. She was sinking fast , the
orange seawater appearing
blue under the white glow of her
cabin lights. We were met with
a frantic sight. Two hehneted
crewmen
were
trying
desperately to free a / trapped
comrade/ There, pinned under
the twisted wreckage of the
smashed power hoist and up to
his neck in the swirling water of
the sinking craft , was my
brother, Steven Davis.

cannot assume that everyone
knows how the ISC system of
bid distribution works and since
those not involved in the Greek
system also take part in observing the frantic festivities,
it's only fair that they should get
a little background on what goes
on.
Unlike
fraternity
bid
distribution where rushees
(prospective pledges) choose
the fraternity they will pledge,
providing of course that they
get a bid from that fraternity, a
girl rushing a sorority must list
her preferences as to which
sorority she would like to join. If
she gets a bid from her first
preference, she must pledge
that one. If she doesn 't get a bid
from her first but from her
second, then she must pledge
there, and so on.
And as many knpw, it's when
these bids come out that the
Union is, a dangerous place to
wander about idlely.
Now for those that have never
seen nor heard about it , bid distribution for sororities in the
past took place during the week
in an atmosphere which can
only be described as nothing
loss than insanity , comparable
only to the 1960 riots at the
Democratic National Convention in Chicago.
As far as sororities are
concerned, there is a high risk
factor and it is a challenge to
see how many future pledges
will survive the holocaust.
But I'm not the only one who
considered this event crazy or
even frightening. Those crying
for the return of the gladiator
fights cringed and some of the
land's bravest fled. There are
many others, some of whom
don't even attend school "here.
When I last spoke to the local
historian from Orangeville, he
remarked that sorority bid
distribution at Bloomsburg
State College is rowdier than
the cockfights behind Rufus
Wheatherby's barn in the late
1800's used to be.
But don't get me wrong. I
have foun d out that even though
bids were distributed last
Saturday it was just as crazy, if
not crazier, and according to
some of the sadistic and
masochistic sorority sister ,
more enjoyable.
With competition to see which
sorority could yell the loudest
and masses of bodies sprinting
toward each other only to clash

Diary reveals Voyage of esqierieiiqe
Submitted by ALI JAMILY
Our canoeing trip initiated
shortly after finals concluded in
the Spring Session of 1976, was
quite interesting and highly
educational from my point of
view. In Iran , my native
country, it is rather dry and
rivers are barely visible, in
contrast with this country's
overwhelming water . transportation. It is not clear to me
whether originating from a dry
and hot country has affected my
feelings about this trip. What I
will try to accomplish now, is to
relate my experience in a log of
the entire course.
I will adhere to a
chronological type of order.
May 17th, 1976
Our instructor, Dr. Bresett,
presented an in-depth lecture
about safety, security and
general well being regarding
the trip. When the lecture
terminated we were given a
demonstration about the actual
paddling movements and
control of the canoe. Purposely,
the canoes were tipped over for
the sake of experiencing such a
disaster.
May 18th, 1976
On the agenda for today, was
preliminary canoeing in the
Susquehanna river. This was
well-planned and took into
consideration many novices like
myself. The reasons being that
the water was quite calm and
control of the canoe was easily
attainable. However, this asset
was not made profitable by my
partner and myself, since our
canoe overturned. My partner's
presence on the previous day of
instruction probably could have
avoided this embarassing
mishap.
May 19th, 1976
Today we were scheduled to
leave at approximately 9:30
a.m. Our destination was a local
creek with a slightly greater
challenge than the previous
day. Unfortunately, it began to
rain and Dr. Bresett was forced
to postpone the plans for a few
hours. In the meantime, we
were brought to the east side of

was satisfactory enough to go
on with canoeing.
May 20th , 1976
Around 11:00 a.m., we-left for
canoeing in a nearby creek. I
was quite elated when Dr.
Bresett had chosen me for his
partner, and as a result, I could
learn from his experience.
Because of safety and
emergency reasons, our canoe
was positioned last in the fleet .
The canoe of Bernie and his
partner Patty was placed in
front of all 12 canoes. Again,
this was done for safety and
security because of Bernie's
special talent . The rapids
around the first curve proved to
be a problem to Jack and Linda,
as their canoe tipped over.
Linda was holding the branches
of a tree on the bank of the river
and Jack was struggling to
maneuver the canoe ashore. We
approached the scene just in
time to assist them.
About half an hour later, we
continued the voyage last in line
again. Through almost every
rapid the same procedure of the
first tipped over canoe was
repeated. I was confident that
we would never overturn
because of the well experienced

May 21st, 1976
Early this day, after packing
all of our persona] needs, the
twelve canoes were loaded on a
trailer and our trip toward
Delaware river began. After
unloading the trailers and
having lunch in Hancock, N.Y.,
our main paddling started. We
were arranged very nicely into
three groups; our group consisted of eight canoers, evenly
distributed according to sex.
After five hours paddling, we
camped without anyone being a
victim of a tipped over canoe.
May 22nd, 1976
After eating a late breakfast,
we duplicated yesterdays
lunching procedure. We quit
approximately 4:00 'p.m. and
found a nice place for camping.
Our groups were very well
organized and typically
stereotyped. The girls proved
their worth by making a
delicious dinner . The male
members in our group, Dr.
Bresett, Ed and myself set up
the tent and built the fire. After
eating we huddled around the
fire and conversed, after
hanging our wet clothes to be
dried.
Chess club seeks mem bers
by BONNIE EPLETT
Many of us tend to pass
judgement on the misunderstood chess players , interpreting them as perhaps
slightly off-base. When they
huddle over their chess board,
whispering sadistic code words
such as check or mate we either

personnel, namely Dr. Bresett.
However, this confidence, as a
bad omen, back fired and we
joined the rest. All I remember
of this occurrence was the
panicing vision of the canoe
over the top of my head. My
first impulse, naturally, was to
inhale after coming to the
surface.^Next I glanced around
for my partner who seemed to
have a mutual feeling for my
safety. The only canoe which
did not tip over on that day was
Bernie's. .

All preliminary indicators

General Psychology, the instructors Drs. Cohen and
Schick , reported to Vice
President Wolfe and Dean
Drake, Friday, October 1.
"The first several weeks are
usually accompanied by some
student disappointment", said
Dr. Schick. Dr. Cohen added,
"Until they learn that regular
disciplined study is needed."
The instructors noted that
only 10 per cent of the students
(a total of 70) are still on the
first unit after four weeks of
instruction. The unit mastery
system allows the student to
progress at his or her own pace.
Over 75 per cent of those
enrolled have completed unit
one and are on either unit two or
three.
The student' s grade is
determined by the number of
units successfully completed.
There are 171 (26 per cent)
students who are progressing at
a much faster than average
pace. Withdrawals account for
-2.5 per cent and 3 per cent of the
enrollees have not yet taken a
unit test.
The unit mastery method is
used at many universities. The
approach used here at BSC is
based upon well-established

The positive features include
studen t self-pacing, development of good study habits,
immediate and informative
feedback after each unit test,
frequent testing, individual
tutoring when needed, and preestablished criterion for grade
determination. The student selfstudy is enriched by films and
the opportunity for discussion
with the instructors and the
learning assistants. .
The students may take unit
tests any day of the week. The
test center , Room 22 Old
Science, is open Monday
through Thursday between 12
and 4 pm, and Friday from 9 to
10 am , and 12 to 1pm. There are
15 learning assistants in addition to the two instructors
assigned to the course. There
are at least four assistants and
one instructor available every
test day.
There are features about the
course that are seen as negative
by the students. First, the
course is different from the
traditional lecture. This in itself
is cause for alarm from , the
student' s point of view.
Secondly, the course requires
regular diligent study. Students
report that this is the point that
causes them the most upset.
They are required to study
while roommates and freinds
appear not to be studying.
It is true that the unit mastery
method does not lend itself to
cram studying; it requires
regular studying. The benefit is
a much higher level or mastery
of the subject matter. Students
who have completed mastery
courses report that they had
developed study habits that
they now use for all courses.

What do you think
of financial aid?
Easy listening
guitar and p iano
by DIANE ABRUZZEE
Perry Leopold, the opening act for the Homecoming concert,
plays acoustic and pop-folk music on the guitar and piano. Last
July, Leopold toured with Jan is Ian, opening her concerts in
Harrisburg and Scranton, at her request.
According to The Evening Bulletin, his material is "largely
personal, with a richly baroque, melodic side offset by dramatic,
masculine accents and tied to finely fingered guitar figures and
bittersweet chordings that pay off."
Leopold has been a guitarist-singer-songwritersince the sixties,
and his new material is considered by many to be more direct that
the abstract songs he performed previously..
Perry Leopold has been playing the piano for one year, and the
guitar for twenty years. Although his music follows no particular
style, it is easy to listen to.
A concert reviewer from Montgomery County Community
College reports that his songs tell stories of places and people by
using similes and analogies. The Montgomery County reviewer,
Molly Fitzgerald, sees Leopold as a brilliant performer and "a
lover of simplistic beauty".
Elyn Rysz I haven't had any
problem receiving financial aid
here at BSC, but more consideration should be given to the
student who is paying for his
education by himself. The
student's financial aid is based
on a PCS form and in some
cases, even though his parents
may be making good money,
the student may pay for his
education with no help from his
parents.
Mary White - The financial
aid'office does an excellent job
considering all the bureaucracy
we must contend with. The laws
of all the government agencies
involyed are so complex and
overlapping that many times
it's hard for us, employees of
the financial aid office , to do all
the work required. We do the
best we can and work harder
than most of the other departments on campus.

Toby Rank
Soccer 's bright f reshman
by RICK SITLER
Different faces, different
places, but the name of the
game's the same, from high
school to college sports. Many
have tried but only a handful
have been chosen to enter the
ring, to compete, to gain that
unprecedented varsity letter.
A young man has appeared,
his purpose, to play that which
he holds dear to his heart,
soccer. The frosh hails from
Conestoga High School, where
in the past he has added to his
name , five long years of
competition, five grueling years
to see a dream come true. That
freshman is Toby Rank his
position Left inside.
Ranks main reasons for
challenging the goals of soccer,
in years past , were he felt "he
was too small for football," and
"likes soccer " and s 'really
enjoys playing ". Mr. Rank cited
the main reason though was due
to the fact that his two older
brothers played soccer.
Rank's views on the team,
stressed the importance of their
"fast offense", and the understanding that the team is
"basically offense-minded."
Feeling the team is mainly
"young and still learning,"
Rank felt each player was "still
feeling each other out", and the
team possesses "a lot of talent
and it would be just a matter of
time before they learn to control
it".
majoring
in
Presentl y
Administrations ,
Business
Rank felt his future was "quite
distant" at the moment, "and
time would tell". He expressed
a wish to travel , to see the rest
of the U.S.A. before he settles
down to the future.
Rank's choice of B.S.C. lay in
the credentials of the campus'
"good reputation for business."
Rank felt he had "never seen a
nicer campus", and that a
feeling of warmth seemed to
surround the school, where he
felt, "the people make you feel
good".
With soccer being reinstituted
at B.S.C. after a long hibernation period of 20 years, the
program looks sound , the
Coach
recruitment
by
Mingrone is excellent, and the
addition of many new players,
including Toby Rank, tends to
point to a well productive old
but new sport at B.S.C. in the
years to come.
Though the future may be
distant for the youth, the
present is clear. His name has
been added to the roster of a
sport old to the world but young
and promising to us, a challenge
to .its by-product; America's
own game of football.

That can be a very serious problem today, especially with
tuition costs climbing relentlessly. Yes, you can borrow, but by
the time you enter practice those debts can be substantial.
There is an altcrnative-an Armed Forces Health Professlons (AFHP) scholarship. Whether you're studying to be a .
physician or a dentist , whether your goal Is to become an
osteopath or an optometrist , it can pay your entire tuition and
fees all through medical school. It will nlso provide you with a
substantial monthly allowance. In other words, If you qualify,
one of those scholarships can give you financial Independence

Judy Carter, daughter-in-law
of Democratic Presidential
candidate , Jimmy Carter ,
visited the BSC campus on
Thursday, September 30. The
visit was sponsored by the BSC
Young Democrats.
She met with students in the
Union and the Commons ,
talking with some at length .
When asked why she thought
her father-in-law would win in
November, she stated, "The
American people are starting to
realize that Carter is the choice
of the average American while
Gerald Ford is a pawn of the
upper-class and of big
business."
She said the Carter campaign
was pretty tense up until the
first debate but they have
started loosening up now.
"I think Pennsylvania will be
a battleground state but I think
we're in pretty good shape
here," she said of Carter 's
chances in Pennsylvania. She
went on to say that after the
next polls the Carter campaign
is going to find out how it's
doing and if it's not doing as
well as expected then they 're
going to start digging in and
fighting hard.
Carter was very impressed
with the BSC campus and
students as she visited here
accompanied by Blu Middleton,
Carter 's roommate and best
friend at Annapolis, who is
presently the Central Pennsylvania Coordinator of the
Carter Campaign.
She then went to the
Bloomsburg Fair for an ap-
pearance there.
In recent days the BSC Young
Democrats have hosted Senator
Franklin Kury, Al Benedict,
candidate for Auditor General
and Ted Stuban, candidate for
state representative.
The next meeting of the BSC
Young Democrats will be in the
Blue Room of the Kehr Union at
7-:00 p.m. Thursday, October 14.
The Retreat State Hospital,
Hunlock Creek, is planning its
annual Christmas program.

program .
The program , sponsored by
the Hospital 's Volunteer
Resources Office, is presented

needs in celebrating the holiday
season.

they're dumb enough to keep
them."
This brings us up to the time
of the power problems. What
has been done by CGA and the
college administration in
students behalf ? About as much
as can be done according to
Robert Norton, Dean of Student
Life. He states that there is
nothing that the college can
legally do to Arcus Brothers. He
did express his sympathy to
those involved and, promised to
help prevent anything like this
from happening again.
CGA also had little hope in
rectifying the situation. According to Bill Boyer the contract the students signed is legal
and Arcus cannot be freed to
return the student's money. He
is, however, trying to get all
those students involved to sign a
petition which may be used at a
later date. If you haven't signed
one of these petitions and you
are involved, please do so as
soon as possible.

Millersville the first half ended
with Bloomsburg on top 3-1.
However, as it seems to have
been all season, the second half
was not made for Bloomsburg.
Although it seemed the Huskies
outplayed the Marauders
throughout the period, the score
did not show it. Bloomsburg was
held scoreless in the second half
while Millersville pumped three
more goals past goalie Russ
Serrault to give them a one goal
margin of victory, 4-3.
by TIM O'LEARY
The soccer team had a tough
time last week, losing both
games on their schedule. The
Huskies dropped their first
match to Millersville State 4-3.
Bloomsburg fell from a three to
one lead to lose the game at
Millersville. Then on their own
home field at Redman Stadium
the Huskies dropped their
fourth loss of the season, bowing
to York College 2-1. Both were
hard fought, and as the score
shows, close games for
Bloomsburg , but unfortunately
Coach Mingrone 's young team
came out on the short end of
both scores. ,
The Huskies came into
Wednesday's game after a 4-3
victory over Wilkes College last
week! But the team could not
keep the victories coming. Jim
Mailey opened the scoring for
Bloomsburg with a three yard
shot to beat the Millersville
goalie. Later in the first half , it
was Mailey again with
Bloomsburg's second goal, this
time with an assist from Tim
Delp.
It seemed for sure the
Huskies were in full control of
the game, especially after Toby
Rank scored from six yards out
to give the Huskies their third,
but final , goal of the day. Steve
Buck was responsible for the
pass that set up that last goal.
After Dave Melchior scored for
Moving back to Redman
Stadium after the - loss, the
Huskies prepared to better their
1-3 record. But after the game
with York College, it didn't
work out that way.
Bloomsburg scored on only
one of their twenty-eight shots
on goal , the lone goal coming on
a three yard slap by Jim Mailey
late in the first half. It was the
second half again that led to the
Huskies' demise as Dennis
Maylor of York scored to tie the

The team itself is one of the
best in the state but they did get

Netwomen falter;
Keating shines
The women's tennis matches with Mary wood and Misericordia
were not played last week due to rain. However, in the invitationals, Lori Keating won the only singles against the Irish
making the score 5-1 in favor of Dublin.
Freshman , Lori Keating, once again has baffled her opponent 6-3,
6-4 in a heated match, this time against Donna Burns of Bucknell.
As for the rest of the tennis team, they played well, but they
couldn 't compare with Buckn ell's talent on the courts. Nevertheless, Ms. Wray was pleased with the recently displayed
aggressiveness by BSC players.
On Thursday, the Huskettes will be trav eling to Wiikes for a
possible win. Stiff competition is in store with Lock Hav en State on
Wednesday, October 13; however, BSC must first challenge the
University of Scran ton on Monday, October 11, on home courts. And
then BSC wil? travel to Lycoming on Tuesday before they encouhtei,
the Bald Eagles.

the Huskies play can not be
beaten.
"What we have worked on
this week is precision in the
plays that we have," commented Coach Puhl, "one of the
biggest problems we have is
making a few big mistakes and
I feel that the team is capable of
making less than they do.
Repetition in the workouts has
been a big step for cutting down
on these errors. If we make less
mistakes, I feel that the team
will
show definite
improvement."
"The attitude of the team is
dif f icul t to describe because of
our record, but one thing that
the boys know is that they have
inside them a competitive
spirit . It shows when they are
down in the game by a margin
of points and they refuse to give
in to the opposition. They hit , up
until the final gun ," pointed out
Coach Puhl.
Captain Lou Sannutti had a
positive comment on the
game," I feel that West Chester
can be beaten. I know we'll do
our best ."
The game, this Saturday, is at
West Chester at 7:30 p.m.

The cross-country team
added Kutztown to their list of
conquered teams on Saturday
as they rolled over them by a
score of 18-45, to bring the
harriers won-lqst record to S-2.
Steve Eachus won the race in
a time of 25:24. This time may
seem considerably less than the
record he set last week, and it
is, but Coach Boler changed the
course for this particular meet.
Mark Bond placed second and a
Kutztown runner was third .
Bloomsburg captured the
next seven places with captain

Overall advantages far
outweigh the disadvantages
from this approach. The instructors and the Psychology
Department will be reviewing
the progress of all the students

mass lecture method . Wc also
are interested in improving this
approach and welcom e observations , comments , and
opinions from those currently

Garry Lausch, Jeff Brandt and
John McKeever tying for fourth
place. Bob Kantner, Chuck
Mannix, Pat Noga and Dave
Howells crossed the finish line
in respective positions seven to
ten.
Coach Boler is pleased with
the performances of the team
and feels that if the team could
overcome some injuries and
illnesses, they would have and
excellent chance at a trophy at
the state meet in November.
In the meet against East
Stroudsburg on Tuesday,
though , BSC was edged by the
Warriors by a score of 25-30 and
now their record stands at .500.

One accident did occur ,
though. About two and one half
miles into the course, captain
Garry Lausch fell , injured his
knee and head and was unable
to complete the race. Members
of the team felt that if this had
not happened , the outcome of
the score would have been
different.
