John Abell : Town -Gown Relations

by JACK FURNISS
The Overpass Committee discusses picketing an ad hoc committee formed at the last CGA meeting; strives to get faculty
evaluations . published; and lawyer Robert Wayne is now
available to BSC students in an advisory capacity.
The Overpass Committee has discussed picketing Lightstreet
Road in ah attempt to focus attention on the serious situation still
plaguing BSC students. The. Town-Gown Committee, also pursuing this issue, has discussed the possibility of various immediate alternatives to the overpass such as movin g the steps
leading to the road, and writing letters to parents of students to
generat e concern.
The ad hoc Faculty Evaluation Committee also shows progress
by its report to the general council that in some cases, the
evaluation results will be published. One-hundred-fifty-sevenout
of a total of 289 faculty members agreed to be evaluated Eightyfour of the 157 must be evaluated, and 60 faculty members of the
157 have acquiesed to have the results made public. It should be
noted that , although this will not provide a representative sampling, it is a step in the right direction.
In other discussion, the Lawyer Committee reported that
Robert Wayne, Esq. will be available to students in a lawyer
advisory capacity in spite of the possible conflict o.f interest. Mr.
Wayne has offered to conduct the service on a gratis basis while
the committee is waiting for an answer from the Justice
Department concerning the conflict of interest with Wayne's firm
and the MacMurray case.
Mr. Wayne will be working out of the offices above the Brozman's Store at the corner of Main and Market Streets in downtown Bloomsburg. His hours will be 6 pm to 9 pm, every Wednesday night till the end of the semester.
The Bloomsburg State Concert Committee, (BSCC), informed
the general council that only 85 out of a possible 1900 tickets had
been sold as of the meeting time. Cancellation of the upcoming
concert was discussed but chairperson of the committee, Matt
Connell, suggested that this should be avoided at all costs. He
stated that colleges that cancel a performance already under
contract , are added to a "black list" of a union of nationally
known performing artists and that further attempts to organize a
well-rated concert would be fruitless.
A run-off election for Union Governing Board was held at
Monday night's meetingto break the tie between John Eichenlaub
and Cindi Edwards. Mr. Eichenlaub will join Pam Moore, elected
at "the last meeting, as the new representatives from college
council.

Students must work with town

BY LENORE FIRSCHING
A major concern of BSC and
the community of Bloomsburg
is that of the somewhat strained
relations between the students
and the townspeople. Mr. John
Abell, Director of Housing, feels
that there are many different
causes for this mutual
misunderstanding between
college and community.

There are over 1600 students
living downtown ; this creates
noticeable problems. As Abell
stated, "Students make use of
town goods and services, but
generally contribute very little
in terms of tax dollars. The
great number of students who
drive also create a parking
problem in downtown Bloomsburg." Abell continued by

SWINE FLU INOCULATIONS

Under what is known at "Phase II" of the Immunization progra m, monova\eni vaccine for swine flu will
be given to persons who are at least 18 years old.
On the same days, the bivalent vaccine - which protects against both swine flu and A-Victorla flu - will be
given to persons 55 years of age and older and those
in high risk groups who did not rocslvo their shots
during "Phase I" of the Innoculatlon program,
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS: Health officials have Issued
the following Instructions concerning the Immunization
program:
—Wear short sleeves
—Pooplo who are allergic to eggs SHOULD NOT
participate In the open clinic.
—People who "don't fool well" that day SHOULD
NOT bo inoculated.
—Ail poriona will sign a consent form when registering. (High risk persons under 18 years of age
wifI neod a consent form signed by their parents.)

stating that there have been
isolated incidences of misunderstandings between merchants and students; but this is
by no means a major problem.
The townspeople may also be
distrubed by , the large offcampus parties held by the
students; many feel that
students living off-campus
neglect their houses, not
keeping them as neat and
respectable as the townspeople
would like them to be.
"The result of these
problems," Abell continued,
"has been a sort of "division" of
Bloomsburg into two separate
communities — the. college
community and the town
community." In many cases the
college is perceived by the
townspeople as a sort of
parasite on the town of
Bloomsburg ; students , and
others affiliated with the college
are seen as outsiders, according
to Abell.
"However, the relationship is
not extremely negative" said
Abell , "many townspeople
consider BSC a valuable part of
the community, contributing
cultural and economical
benefits." He gave examples:
"Greek organizations and other
student groups have sponsored
charity drives, blood drives,
and other services in order to
contribute to the community."
"Thus, the college has both a
positive and negative impact on
the town of Bloomsburj ?," Abell
reiterated .
Aboil pointed out that the task

of resolving these problems is
not a one-sided thing ; in order
for relations to improve, an
effort must be put forth by both
students and townspeople to "be
better neighbors ", he continued.
"The students have an
mportant role in improving and
promoting good relations.
Students could break down
barriers of suspicion by,
exhibiting good conduct and
courtesy toward their neighbors
and generally being more
considerate toward the townspeople," added
Abell.
"Cooperation and positive

attitudes play a large part in
creating a neighborly atmosphere. Abell suggests that
student groups , especially
fraternities and sororities ,
direct some of their charitable
and helpful efforts toward their
immediate neighborhoods in
addition to more traditional
community-wide activities.
"The townspeople must also
make an effort to be good neighbors; they must realize that
students^ too, have the rights
and responsibilities of citizenship, and should be accepted
as adul ts," Abell stressed.

Do youwant an overpass?
Sign this letter and send
it to town council .
Gentlemen :
As students of Bloomsburg State College, we feel that there is
an urgent need for the constructionof an overpass on Lightstreet
Road,
A great number of students find it necessaryto cross the street
several times a day at this point; not only is it an obvious hazard
to have to use the icy steps in the winter, but there is also the
constant danger of being struck by one of the many speeding cars
that travel this road.
Many senseless accidents have occurred at this intersection;
there is a desperate need for an overpass in order to prevent
further tragedies. We feel that the Coun cil should admit the
urgency of this situation and take action to construct an overpass
as soon as possible.

Keep boycotting the
Arcus Brothers run

Any well organized plan is bound to succeed and that's
just what happened with our boycott of the Arcus Brothers
store.
According to our reporter George Boschini , who is following the story , Arcus claims his business is falling off badly
and he doesn't have the money to return to the students.
But, as far as we can tell, he never really intended to give
it all back anyway. The last deal he offered students was for
$35 in credit. From our survey of people with refrigerators
we found that they'd be willing to settle for $20 in cash and
$15 in credit. Not the best - but a lot better than what we
have now. .
The thing to keep in mind is that the boycott is working keep it going.
If Arcus doesn't come around soon then we can resort to
more drastic measures like the pickett. But for now - we've
got them where we want tl em, but let's push them just a
little bit farther. .;

With all of the recent clamor raised over house bill 1833,
the overpass and housing it's appalling to realize that most
students have no conception of what the Commonwealth
Association of Students is and does.
Over the past few weeks there has been a surge, headed
by Pierce Atwater and Marty Boland, to get students to

become involved in CAS. While the response on the part of
the students has been adequate, I really doubt that the
majority of the students on this campus even consider what
CAS can do to enhance their educational experience.
This is appalling as well.
In the past, CAS, on the statewide level, has fought to
stop retrenchment , to stop tuition hikes and has done the
most that a collective body could do to have the people in
Harrisburg realize the importance of the state college system.
However, the formation of a CAS cooperative at Bloomsburg
could deal with student concerns here, rather than on the
state level.
As a case in point , look at the situation involving the
overpass. We can sign all the petitions that we want , but
ultimatel y nothing will be done unless a strong student

effort is organized and set in motion. I have seen too many
students sitting around claiming, "I think the County Planning
Commission is full of shit." However, when it comes to expressing student concerns,the task is left to the few students
who can motivate themselves to do something about it.
CAS at Bloomsburg is the type of organization which could
form a viable effort on the part of this very serious matter.
End of cose in point.
CAS at Bloomsburg is conducting a membership drive
this week. It only costs two dollars to join the statewide
CAS and one need not worry that the money will be put to
good use. However , what is more important is that students
realize what the organization does before they join. It's
not hard to find out. Go to the table, in the union, and ask
about CAS. H you're not satisif led, fine. But, if you are,
joinCAS andfindout what we as students must and can do.

Responding to Paul Dawcett's
anxious call, Steve and I raced
to where he stood waving his
arms in the air.
"What's so damn important?" Steve asked.
"Him." Dawcett replied
indicating a figure "shrouded in
black garments.
The strange being moved
toward us, its graceful manner
quite unlike the shambling
effect of Keelo locomotion. His
pale skin was entirely different
from that of the savages, and
the features of the face were of
a morerefined appearance. The
creature exhibited an aura of
dignity which convinced us that
it was of a higher, more noble
breed than the Keelo.
"Your impressions are
correct, gentlemen. I am not of

the Keelo tribe," the being
¦ ¦; ' ' '"
.
you.j
.
"Are
"
S
;•
"...able to read your
thoughts? Yes, Robert. The
greater energy of your human
mind enables me to hear that
which you are thinking. Mr.
Dawcett is wondering who I am,
and Steven wants to know why I
am here. I am called Orrin, and
I am here to capture a Keelo
and take him back to the
Provider."
"An Aklean, that which the
keelo are descended from," he
replied. "I shall tell you all that
I know later. Now I ask for your
help."
"What did you have in
mind?" Dawcett queried.
"We are both prisoners here,
your race and mine. I intend to
correct the mistake which
brought you and all the others
here. First we must capture a

,

Keelo villager and rescue your
comrade, John Sherman , "
Orrin said.
We agreed, and prepared our
crystalline arrows. Sherman
was being held in a stone cell
near the center of the village.
Orrin and I crept inside the
citadel and easily freed Sherman, while Steve and Dawcett
subdued the guards. Orrin tied
the leather thongs used to bind
Sherman to one of the guards,
and we left the camp as quietly
as we entered it.
I called Evans and Burke at
the Cessna, and told them of our
success. We reached the plane
after a half hour's travel, but
before Orrin and our captive
could -enter; meAaircraft; ^we
removed all lights5 from the
inside of the cabin. y
Since Keelo and Aklean alike
cannot stand huriiAti body
temperature, which seems like
red-hot iron to them, we. were
careful to place Orrin 'and the
abducted guard near an open
window during pur flight. Orrin
gave us directions to the place
he had come from. It was two
hundred miles to the south,
along the same course as the
region where Sherman's plane
went down. We reached our goal
within twenty minues — the
thing Orrin called the Provider.
A sleek, crystalline pyramid
stood on the horizon, reflecting
the brilliance of the violet sun
like the protruding spire of
some titanic subterranean
cathedral. It towered hundreds
of feet above the scarlet
meadow, and stood atop a
terraced mound of earth.
I landed the Cessna on the

flat, expansive grassland a few
hundred yards from the lofty
edifice. We left the plane and
approached the structure. It
was built entirely of crystal. A
scientillating luminesence that
seemed to shift from a deep
saphirous blue to an intense
amber, enveloped the spire's
entire bulk, while faint falshes
of ruby light sparkledfrom deep
inside the milky, translucent
interior.
"It's fantastic!" Clyde Burke
excalimed. "But what is it?*'
"The Provider— M ; Orrin
replied, "a testament to my
;. >
race's stupidity./•Stupidity?" I wondered.
"What else would you say of
men- who created ; a; device
which destroyedthe civilization
of ah entire world?" he said.
f But how did all this happen?" Clar>;E^«ns ^sked. v ;
i;I shall tell you," was Orrin's
reply, "not because I mourn the
death : of , 'a .^ bygone^age^ but
because there-is the remote
possibility that I can get you
back to your world.; Warn your
people, for sooner or later your
race may develop the same
disasterous capability that
destroyed my people.!'
Orrin sat in the softly rippling
crimson clover , with its
greenish flowers . His expression changed from one of
resentfulness , to sorrow.
"Sit, my friends....and as the
grass dies from your very
touch, hear of how my brethren
also died."
We sat, feeling the plants
beneath us shrivel and die, and
listened to Orrin, sharing in his
grief .

Oh how cliche

Cliches-those trite little expressions you've said and heard
time and time and time again
which frequently 'get on your
nerves.' —Sylvester's Boring
Words Abridged Dictionary
A book was recently compiled
by a man (whose name I don't
quite remember) that listed
many, if not all, of the cliches
used and used and used in our
every day language.
For example, phrases like
'take it easy' or 'see you later'
are in the air everywhere. They
are up there with the most
common terms such as 'you
can't win 'em air and 'what the
hell'. There are others, 'too
numerous to name.'
In thebook which I mentioned
earlier, cliches are divided up
into different areas such as
government, medicine, general
cliches, etc. I don't know if the
author has a section on cliches
on the college campus, but, just
in case he doesn't, I would like
to present my own version,
The following cliches may be
and probably arc true of other
college campuses; however, I
am just writing on what I know
about Bloomsburg (as far as

cliches go).
One cliche phrase , for
example, is 'have a nice
weekend.' It almost makes me
dread the coming of the
weekend when, coming back
from my last class on Friday, I
know I'm going to hear 752
different 'have a nice
weekend
. And then there
are the people that aren't even
talking to me.
Thanksgiving is 'just around
the corner' which means it will
once again be time for that
cousin-phrase of 'have a., nice
weekend' ':- 'have a nice
vacation * .
If that's not enough, the 'nice
weekend' or 'nice vacation' will
end and we'll all have to come
back to hear, 'how was your
weekend?' or 'how was your
vacation?'
Then there are the basics like
'are you going to class?' 'how'd
you do in the test?*, 'what are
we doing in class?' and 'blow it
off!' which is what forced you to
ask 'what are we doing in
class?' in the first place.
Oh well, I guess it'd be pretty
difficult to find substitutes for
these phrases and even if we

did , they would eventually
become cliches too. I guess you
can't fight city...er, I mean. you
can't fight cliches.
Some of the other cliches I've
heard around here are 'where
are the parties at this
weekend?', 'are you going to
dinner?', 'who's in the Union?*,
'I gotta do some bookin",. 'Let's
bolt', and of course the unviersal, 'oh wow!"Have a nice
day' also ranks up there among
the trite expressionsif not at the
forget, 'what a
top, and we can't
¦ ¦

rush !'

• ., • . ' ' ..: ".'

But most of these are
Statements which just can be
ignored. The remaining few
that are questions can have a
variety of answers which 'at
least takes away from their
monotony. Except for 'what's
; : , '. v
new?'
^ 'i ''-• '^' ;^. ;.^ v ^;
Sure you niay think inere are
a variety of answer*for this one
but,: were you ever Walking
somewhere and greeted with a
'hi, what's new?' You most
likely came back with, 'Oh,
nothing much' or 'nothing,
what's new with you?' ,
You could never really tell

This weekend

DEAR EDITOR:
The weekend of November 19
through the 21 should prove to
be a exciting and perhaps
educational experience at
Bloomsbureg State College ,
because The Third World
Cultural Society, in conjunction
with the Kehr Union Program
Board, has a vast array of
activities planned.
The Weekend starts off with a
Friday afternoon showing of
two fine movies, Buck and the
Preacher , starring Harry
Belefonte and Sidney Poiter,
and The Learning Tree,
directed by Mr. Gordon Parks.
These movies will be shown
from 12 to 4 p.m., in Kehr Union
Multi-purpose Room A.
On Saturday, B. T. Express
comes to town, guaranteed to
satisfy all urges to party. Along
with B. T. will be The Stridors.
It will be well worth the money.
There will also be two movies
shown Hope and The Education
of Sonny Carlson.
After the evening entertainment of B. T. Express a
Dawn Dance will be held in the
Union until 4:00 a.m. ( Can yea
believe that)
On Sunday at 9:00 a.m. a
Leadership Conference will be

held in the Union under the
direction of Mr. JohnMulka. All
campus organizational leaders
and any other interested individuals are asked to attend.
This conference should prove
valuable to every , body who
attends, for we will aU be
leaders in one form or another

BRIAN FORD
- CHAIRPERSON T.W.C.S.

Nine members of the BSC Chess Club played in a simultaneous
exhibition at Bucknell University against International Master
Norman Weinstein last Saturday night.
Three of them were among-the -few who scored against the
celebrated exhibitor. Senior Keith Levan won his game, and
freshman Ron Brown and senior Tom Klinedinst both managed
draws.
>
At 26, Weinstein is one of the top dozen or so players in the
United States. His title of International Master, awarded by
FIDE, the international chess federation, indicates that he can
hold his own against chess masters anywhere in the world.
Moreover, he has already achieved one of the two excellent
results in high-level competition that he needs for the title of
International Grandmaster, the highest rank in chess.
: Weinstein, a Bostonian and a graduate of MIT, played against
35 opponents simultaneously at Bucknell. The tables were
arranged in a large rectangle, and the master walked alone
around the boards, making quick responses to each opponent's
move, then stepping on to the next challenge.
One by one the amateurs capitulated, and then a buzz swept the
room. Themaster had offered a draw in a complicated position to
Ron Brown, an unrated player. Heartened;by Brown's success,
his colleagues bore down.
It paid off for Keith Levan who managed to trap one or Weinstein's knights. A few moveslater, the master resigned; it was his
first loss of the long nights
Weinstein mowed down most of the rest, lost another, and drew
two more. At 2 a.m. Tom Klinedinstwas the .only one left in
the match that had started some six hours earlier. Perhaps to
finish the grueling contest, Weinstein offeredKlinedinst a draw
too, and the event was over.
After a short rest, the Husky Rooks will be ready for a crip to the
Lewisburg Penitentiary to play against the inmates' team. Other
plans for the near future include hosting the annual tournament of
the local high schools and participatingin the Pan-American
Intercollegiate Tournament in New York City over the Christmas
vacation.

Along with taking care of
student social activities, Mulka
hires the Union Staff Members
and is an adviser of C.G.A. With
such a time consuming job he
hasn't enough time to hear all of
the
students
opinions ;
therefore, he has a committee
of students with whom he works
directly to make the students'
social life more satisfactory.
Mulka attended college here
at Bloomsburg. From here he
traveled to Ohio University.
Upon receiving his Masters, he
went to Clarion to work as the
Assistant Dean of Men.
Considering the only people
who stayed on weekends when
lie attended BSC were the
members of athletic teams,,

.

Mulka feels it isn't as much a
"suitcase college" as it once
was.
There will always be kids who
pack up and leave on weekends.
Mulka is not too concerned
because "these kids would go
home anyway because they
want to remain a part of their
community."
Because Mulka's job also
entails co-ordinating Greek
activities, he feels there is hot
competition between the two.
"Most kids don't party every
night; therefore, we usually
have good turnouts at our
dances. We also co-sponsor
many activities', such as,
B.S.C.C. and Third World
Culture's upcoming concert —

The Striders, and B.T. Express."
Actually, there are activities
going on for all types of taste
Mulka's persistence has
awakened many people to the
realization that hte campus is
alive and open to all those who
care to enjoy it.

Quest offers historic
trip which earns credit
Celebrate the Bicentennial of
America 's liberty by participating in a historical
reenactment of the exploits of
the American Revolutionary
Army in their engagements at
Trenton and Princeton on
December 26, 1776 and January
3, 1777 respectively.
Badly outnumbered , underequipped, starving, freezing
and dying from disease, the
American forces , under' the
leadership
of
General
Washington , vaunted an
unexpected attack on the
Hessians at Trenton and the
British at Princeton, and won
two surprising victories that
helped turn the tide of the war
for independence.
BSC's QUEST program, in
conjunction with the History
Department , is offering a
unique "once-in-a-lifetime"
experience to follow the footsteps of those brave American
soldiers in the darkest days of
the Revolutionary War.
The Experience will earn one
academic credit in history upon
completion of the following : l)
read the assigned materials
prior to the physical experience, 2) successfully
complete the experience, and 3)
write a reaction to your experiences in comparison to that
which you read previously and
submit a diary of each day 's
happening*.
The dates during which this
experience will take place
approximate the actual happenings 200 years ago. You will
live as they lived (outdoors)
walk where they walked, cross
the river where they crossed
and experience the unexpected
as they did.
You will need to be equipped
to handle freezing temperature,
rain , snow, and wind during the
dates indicated. The weather
will need to be dealt with in both
camping and backpacking
situations. Once on location, all
travel from ' place to place will
be done on foot. Adequate
footwear " will be most important.
QUEST will provide group
gear (stoves, tarps, shovels,
fuel , maps, compasses, rope,
cooking pots) and personal gear
can be rented from QUEST or
the Kehr ..Union recreation
dep artment. Food will be
purchased for the group as a
whole prior to departure and
will be sufficient to cover the
entire experience.

The Bloomsburg State
College Forensic Society attended the Age of Aquarius VIII
Individual Events Tournament
held at Ball State University,
Muncie , Indiana , this past
weekend (Nov. 12 - 13, 1976).
The tournament was attended
by over two hundred contestants from thirty-three
colleges and universities
representing nine states.
The local team had two
reasons to do well at the tournament. First, BSC was the only
school from Pennsylvania
represented at the tournament.
Second, and most important,
the one coach attending the
tournament with the BSC team,
Professor Erich F. , Frohman of
the Speech Communication and
Theatre Arts Department ,
became ill Thursday evening
after the team arrived in
Muncie and was hospitalized in
Ball Mrmorial Hospital.
Professor Frohman still
remains in the hospital. For this
reason , the team dedicated its
greatest team effort this
semester in honor of Professor
Frohman.
Winning two trophies for the
local college was Anne Otto. Ms.
Otto returned home with the
Second Place Trophy in Informative Speaking and the
Sixth Place Trophy in Per-

suasive Speaking. Jeff Hunsicker reached the semi-final
round in Impromptu Speaking,
but missed the final round by
one point. Jane Uhrich, attending her first Forensic
Tournament, missed the final
round in Salesmanship by only
one point, as did Otto and
Regina Wild in Dramatic Duo,
and Gert McGoff and Sue
Waters in Oral Interpretation.
The outstanding team effort
was exemplified by the fact that
the team finished in a strong
twelfth position out of the thirtythree schools attending . The
over-all Sweepstakes winner
was the numbr one big
university in Forensics in the
nation - Eastern Michigan
University.

Sanders' survey shows
BSC freshmen typology

BY LENORE FIRSCHING
For many years BSC has
gathered information about
newly admitted freshmen.
According to Dr. Merritt W.
Sanders, Director of Institutional Research, the results
obtained from questionnaires
over the past few years have
remained rather constant. The
most recent survey, taken in
September 1976, produced some
of the following results:
Of the 1,150 new freshmen
who attended orientation, 456
(39.7 per cent) are males and
694 (60.3 per cent) are females.
1065 (93 per cent) of these freshmen are now Pennsylvania
residents ; 913 (80 per cent)
were born in Pennsylvania. The
largest out-of-state group,
consisting of 61 students (5 per
cent) comes from New Jersey.
1051 (91 per cent) have
drivers' licenses; 131 (11 per
cent) have completed the
Defensive Driving Course.
FAMILY BACKGROUND
The survey shows that these
students come from stable
home backgrounds ; 980 (85 per
cent) report their families intact ; 531 (5 per cent) report
divorced parents, this divorce
rate being about one-half that
for parents of entering freshmen nationally.
.
The typical student comes
from a family have three
children, including himself. 148
(13 per cent) are "only
children"' and 16 (1 per cent)
report having seven siblings.
The largest group of working
mothers are listed as "Office
Secretaries," 138 (12 per cent)
485 (42 per cent) report mothers
as housewives. 218 (19 per cent)
reportfathers as "Professional" ; 177 (15 per cent) ,

Earl Mayeresky — Yes, I
believe that it is about time we
all evaluated what college will
give us. Ms. Bird confirmed
many of my fears about going to
college. I think I should have
been a plumber.

Barbara Kennedy — I really
don 't know what everyone
thought of the symposium. I
only went to one lecture and it
seemed pretty interesting. I
think the students could have
taken more advantage of it.

Debbie Bohner — I don't think
many of the college students
took advantage of the symposium. It might have been
more successful if more of the
students had given up someof
their free time to attend at least
one lecture.

Dave Syphler — The symposiumseemed to generate a lot
of enthusiasm about teaching
methods and other subjects of
controversy on the campus.
People seemed to be generally
riled up by listening around.

Jeff Hunsicker — Yes. I feel
that many importantideas were
discussed.The symposiumgave
the students and faculty an
opportunity to talk about
problems that both are faced
with. Unfortunately not enough
students participated.

Cynthia Fissel — Yes, I feel the
symposium was a huge success.
I was only able to attend one.
session — Communications
Competency — and from what I
observed, there was a great
deal of student interaction and
concern. This is the important
thing, student involvement in
those things which effect our
education.

Betsy Matty — Yea, definitely It
was n success. I enjoyed the
session Creativity. I only wish
thoy would spread it out over a
longer period so that I could
enjoy more of the sesions.

Katht Mason — It was a really
good idea, but It should have

COLLEGE-COMMUNITY ORCHESTRA CONCERT — Performances by groups of class
and distinction are few and far between here at Bloomsburg. On Monday, November
22 at 8:15 p.m. fust such a performance will be held in Haas Center for the Arts.
Dr. John P. Master will conduct the College-Community orchestra in it's first concert
of the season. A respected pianist and BSC faculty members John Couch will be
the featured soloist. Couch Is a familiar face to many of the members of the audience
from his previous recitals and concert appearances. After a short intermission the
Concert Choir will appear under the direction of Dr. William Decker and will sing
the "requiem" by Faure. Although a requiem is music for the dead, and most requiems
sound that way, Faure uses tonal beauty to express his lyrics. Lyrics for the "Requiem"
will be Mary Decker and Timothy Hoffman, both familiar faces to Bloomsburg. Organ
soloist Lois Sturgeon will also be featured. If previous performances are any indication of what this year's performance will be, then you won't want to m$ss this, their
first performance.

a child is given a daybirth
At
name ("soul name") only. This
name tells the sex of the child
and the day of the week on
which he-she was born.
On the eighth day after birth
the child is considered to be a
human being and a family name
is chosen for it; the mother is
not allowed to name the child.
The father has this right and
may name the child after his
own father, mother, uncle, or
another relative. He can also
name the child after one of
his wife 's relatives, not after
the wife herself ; such a choice
often reflects the closeness
between the man and his wife.
On this eighth day (although
now the exact day is not
regarded as being highly important) two ceremonies are
performed , in most cases very
perfunctorily. The father must
provide money and cloth for
both the new child and the
mother, and a mat and a
chamber pot for the child. At
the same time the child is given
its family name; this ceremony
is very important. Usually,
traditional naming ceremonies
are not accompanied by music

or dancing.
The name picked is often that
of a revered relative whose
qualities it is hoped the child
will assume. Should a man name his child after his own
father ( the child's paternal
grandfather), the grandfather
must provide the child with a
gold ring and some money.
Many names are circumstantial , however, birth
positioning, for example, is
important. A male twin is called
ATTA, female twin, ATAA. A
triplet is always named
TAWIAH, the second child after
twins, NYANKOMAGO, etc. If
the twins are of the same sex
they may be differentiated by
the prefix junior or senior, the
first twin to emerge from the
womb being called junior since
it is generally believed that it
was sent by the senior twin
(who emerges second) to check
out the state of the world.
MSANU is the name for a
second born; a first born may
be called PIESIE (although it is
not a formal name) ; a third
born who is male is called
MENSAH while a third born
who is female is called MANSA.

BUTTRESS. Well, enough of
that.
The point: the real constant
elements at BSC are those
legions of folks in blue demin,
JC Penney work shorts, and
uniforms of blue, whether dark
or light. I sing the body
janitorial , because without
them there would be neither
heat nor light, though with them
in some classrooms there
remains more of one than the
other, and in some perhaps a
total absence now prevails; not
to mention the absence of all

service personnel roundabout.
I suppose there is really
nothing more to say beyond
this, but in the light of bumper
stickers that say "have you
thanked a green plant today?"
perhaps we ought nudge ourselves once in a while on beyond
cordiality to a well-deserved
"thank you" for the legion of
workers who keep BSC
together. Their function is to
work silently, to be invisible in a
sense. It's a sleight-of-hand act
on grand scale. Going unnoitced, they remain the most
central folks to the continued
existence of BSC.

( continued from page one)
"Those who perceive BSC as it
was years ago must accept the
fact that the college and its
student body are changing and
that one bad experience with
the students should not create a
permanent, generally negative
attitude toward the college."
The Town-Gown Committee,
a college-community committee consisting of both college
and local officials , merchants,
landlords, and representatives
of different community groups,
has been organized to try to
resolve problems of this nature.
Among the representatives in
this organization, Abell sensed
a feeling of satisfaction toward
town-gown relations and that
the students should be appreciative of the fact that
Bloomsburg has been a fairly
understanding community.
Abell summarizedby saying,
"In order to break down
negative barriers, it is
necessaryfor both the students
and the townspeople to
eliminate the uncomplimentary
and undesirableprejudices that
each holds for the other; each
must make an honest and
genuine effort to improve town*
gown relations. Perhaps by
working together, the students
and townspeople can be unified
into one mutually beneficial
community."

Young squad

Grapp lers strugg le for open positions

by CRAIG WINTERS
"The key to success this year
is in getting the right people'at
the right weight class. This will
be a trial and error process
early in the season and it may
not be until the end of the
schedule until we have found
the right combination ". Such
was the comment of wrestling
coach Roger Sanders in
reference to the status of the
1976-1977 edition of the Husky
grapplers. Despite the fact that
almost half of his 40 candidates

are freshman, Sanders feels
that this squad has more
balance, talent and depth per
weight class than last year 's
team , but that the team lost
some strength due to the losses
of Dave Brandt , Dexter Derr
and Steve Scheib. Scheib, the
Pennsylvania State Conference
Champion at 177 last year will
be red-shirting this season.
However , the outlook is
brightened as five wrestlers
who red shir ted last season,
return to uniform. These red

Tankers take 3rd
at Millers ville
by TIM O'LEARY

The Bloomsburg State Men's
Swimming team opened its
season of competition last
weekend, placing third at the
Millersville Relay Carnival.
The swimmers, under the
direction of Coach Eli
McLaughlin, placed in all but
two of the relay events with
some individuals placing in as
many as four races. Veteran
swimmer Stu Marvin took three
3rd place finishes and one 4th,
as teammate Wayne Richards
ended the day with two Srd's
and a 4th. Returning Lettermen
Jim Balchunas and Steve Price
took two 'places each ,
Balchunas with a 3rd and 4th,
and Price taking a 2nd and a
3rd.,
In the opening event, the 400
Medley Relay, the team did
well, placing third on the strong
efforts of Steve Price, Doug
Thran, Wayne Richards and
anchorman Stu Marvin.
Coach McLaughlin was
pleased with the finish and
credited his individual swimmers, "Considering the fact
that Doug Thran lias not been
swimming all week and that
Steve Price is just getting over
an ankle injury, I feel the team
did very well with their 3.51.6
finish."
The second event of the meet
also brought a third place for
Bloomsburg.
It was the 400 backstrokewith
Pete Dardaris, Stu Marvin,
Keith Torae and Steve Price
doing the job. Pete Dardaris, a
freshman, looked very good in
the event as Coach McLaughlin
later cited, "Dardaris shows
slot of promise, especially with
his impressive 59.9 split. The
'old reliable Keith Torok also
looked very strong with a 58.2
split".
The third event was the 1100
Crescendo Relay, in which the
seven man team took a fifth
place. In the relay the swimmers were: Pete Dardaris,
leading off , Wayne Richards,

Doug Thran, Steve Price, Keith
Torok , Jim Balchunas and
anchorman Stu Marvin.
The Breaststroke Relay, also
brought a fifth place finish, with
Jim Balchunas, Doug Thran,
Pete Dardaris and Dan Steele
swimming the four legs. In the
"B" heat of that same event
Kevin Myers, Dietrich Liectner,
Mike Bower and Guy Campbell
were the swimmers for
Bloomsburg.
In the 400 yd. Free Relay Stu
Marvin, Keith Richards, Jim
Balchunas and Keith Torok
were the swimmers who borght
in a third place finish. In the 800
yd. Free Relay and the 400 yd.
Individual Medley the team did
not fair well due to some
technicalities
and
a
disqualification.
The "Dirty Dozen", as the
twelve man swim team has
come to be known, is presently
preparing for the Penn State
Relays that are coming up and
learned who their competition is
from this meet.
Powerful East Stroudsburg
won the Millersville Relays,
with Glassboro State taking
second place.
Coach McLaughlin hopes the
Penn State meet will be a better
test of Bloomsburg's strengths,
since there will be only six or
seven teams entered in the
eleven events.
Bloomsburg 's dual meet
competition will open Dec. 9
against Kings College. Until
then the team will be practicing
for the competition.

Steve Eachus, Bloomsburg's long distance running machine,
placed eighth in the Division II National Championshipsthat were
held in Missouri this past Saturday.
He then flew to New York City on Sunday to compete in the
IC4A's and placed second in the college division section. The team
placed ninth at the IC4A meet out of thirty-eight teams. Lehigh
won the meet which was held at VanCortlandt Park and over 266
runners competed in the meet.
Eachus' time for the course at Nationals, which is 6.2 miles
long, was 30:13 andthe winning time was 29:42. By placing eighth,
Steve wins the title of "All-American" for cross-country.
After flying back to the east coast for the IC4A meet, Steve's
second place time was 25:07 while the winning time was just a
hair faster than Steve's at 25:05.8 which was run by Jeff
Richardson of MIT.
The other team members that brought home the ninth place
rating, which is the best the cross-country team has ever done,
were scored as follows:Jack McKeever, 45th, 26:21; Mark Bond,
54th, 26:32; Jeff Brandt , 76th, 26:49 ; Garry Lausch, 117th, 27:15;
Bob Kantner, 118th, 27:15 and Chuck Mannix, 148th, 27:48.
One of the joys the cross-country team got out of running in the
IC4S's was that they beat some very big colleges in the east, plus
they left teams in the PSCAC converence way behind in the
standings. They beat Millersville and East Stroudsburg which
beat BSC in the stat e championships a week earlier. The Huskies
also won big over West Chester State College.
In the St. John 's Invitational, Bloomsburg had a lone entry in
Stan Cohen who placed 91st out of over 300 runners.
For the second year in a row Steve Eachus has been placed on
the ''AH IC4A"' team and deserves a lot of credit for putting in long
miles everyday and being dedicated.
The team also deserves credit for performing to their utmost
ability this past season. Even though all runners were not healthy
all the time, the bulk of the runners picked up the slack when their
mates were either injured or ill.
Coach Boler ends his first year as cross-country head coach in a
stylish manner and also deservesa lot of credit for putting up with
the cross country team. "They're a helluva bunchof boys."

give the Huskies Eastern
League opponents fits.
The grapplers open their
season December 3-4 with the
Bucknell Invitational Tournament. The home schedule
should prove to be exciting for
the Husky fans as the schedule
sports such powers as Bucknell
University, Clarion State, West
Chester State, Lock Haven,
Penn State, Montclair State and
the University of Buffalo. The
1976-77 home slate promises to
provide many thrills, so come
out and support your team. „

afforded by the return of John
Snyder and Mel Sharp. Sharp,
returnign to Bloomsburg a
year 's absence, was a fourth
palce finisher in the Pennsylvania State Conference
tourney two years ago. Despite
the loss of Steve Scheib, the
presence of Chris Poff , Dan
Lechner and Andy Capelli
allows Sanders and staff the
option to alternate wrestlers in
the 158, 167 & 177 lb. classes.
Tino DeMcarco at heavyweight
puts the finishing touch on the
upper weight class that should

shirts include Tom Fink at 118,
Carl Poff at 134 and Mike
Snyder at 190. The return of
Fink and Poff should help the
team at the weights where the
Huskies finished under .500 last
year. Returning from last
year 's 9-8-1 squad are Dave
McCollum (118), the lone senior
on the team, Tony Caravella
(142) , Dan Lechner (158), Andy
Capelli ( 167) , Chris Poff (158)
and Tino DeMarco (hwt).
In addition, a fine freshman
crop should push the starters
for their jobs at several weight
classes.
O u t s t a n din g
newcomers include Joe
Dougherty.(118) the New Jersey
State Champ from Madison
Central High and Ernie Jackson
(190) from Port Jervis, New
York. Freshman Ken Brodmerkel at 126 has impressed
during the preseason and will
apparently start. The situation
appears rosy at 134 with the
return of Carl Poff. Poff appears ready to return to his old
spot as he sparkled over the
summer with a fourth place
finish in the Nationla Junior
Championships (ages 16-21).
Candidates in the 142 lb. class
include Rich Rausa from
Northern Valley H.S., Craig
Shaner from Hughesville, Rex
Lutz from Montoursville and
Terry Donahue from Council
Rock. This represents the
youngest weight class as all but
Rausa are freshman. The msot
competitive class should be at
150 where several fine grapplers will battle for the number
one position. Tony Caravella,
who gutted out last year with a
knee injury, had surgery performed over the summer and
appears most competitive.
However, he will be pushed by
Bucky McCollum, the reigning
state champ from Shikellamy
High Rex Lutz, who finished
fourth in the state championships and David Cox.
While a real dogfight for a
starting positions appears to be
in order for the lower and
middle weight classes, Sanders
appears to enjoy flexibility in
the upper and heavyweight
divisions. Such . flexibility is
