NORML sums up plans
by LENORE FIRSCHING
"We've establ ished an
organization and made a name
for ourselves; we've '. raised
consciousness in the people
around us." These were* the
feelings of Scott Blair, BSC
Coordinator for the National
Organization for the Reform of
Marijuana Laws (N0RML) ,
when asked to sum up NORML's progress since the
beginning of the fall semester.
He feels that it has been, very
successful.
Blai r stated that Student
Activism Day was a successful
venture for NORML in terms of
product sales, increasing
membership and increasing
awareness of

According to Blair, the lobbying trip to Harrisburg was
also fairly successful. NORML's first and foremost •; objective — gaining support of the
legislators — has been obtained; ' Frank Kury and Ted
Stuban have stated on record
that, they will vote for a
decriminalization bill when and
if it coi3ies up. "We got a'lot of
hew input from the legislators,"
Blair said. The bill has been put
through a series of delays due to
problems with the budget; since
the budget was passed
December 8, Blair is hopeful
that the bill may come up
sometime this semester.
When asked about NORML's
plans for next semester, Blair
was optimistic. ''We've started
the organization; now we're
going to maintain it," he said.
"We've got some excellent
people jn charge. "
Blair hopes'to take another
lobbying trip this semester and
to take a group to the Northeast

Organization aids in book sales

By LENORE FIRSCHING
Textbook-buying time will
soon be upon us, and for those
who wish to buy or sell used
books this probably means the
hassle of searching through
thousands of sheets of paper on
the bulletin board to find the
book you want. Students must
read through what seems like
zillions of lists and just hope
that they are lucky enough to
stumbleupon one with the book
that they want on it. There's got
to be a better way, right?

Parkingproble ms

Dear Editor :
Frustrated and tired of
hassles, I am writing this letter
in the hopes it will enlighten
BSC students on the parking
situation.
First of all, I am also a BSC
student and very well aware of
the limited parking spaces
available on campus and the
surrounding areas. But, I am
also a property owner in
Bloomsburg and very tired of
the arrogant and insolent attitude of students when it comes
to parking.
I want someone to tell me
where it says students are
allowed to park anywhere they
please regardless of the parking
laws and private property.
t ..All last semester and now
again this semester students
have constantly been parking
on my private property . When
asked to move their cars they
become very arrogant and act
as if they are being deprived of
a right . A student, I would hope,
is a responsible adult and as a
car owner he has additional

I

responsibilities. One of which is
to obgy all traffic laws including
the prohibition of parking in
certain areas and specific
times. But more importantly is
to respect the right of private
property. It is illegal to park on
private property without the
permission of the owner for any
reason.
Regardless if it' s for 5
minutes or an hour or more, if
there are signs which say
"private property ", "no
trespassing", and "no parking"
then parking in that area is
prohibited. The only excuse for
the continuance of parking in
this area would be that these
arrogant insolent students
never took the time to learn to
read.

Marston case

To the Editor :
The reason I'm writing this
letter is to make students more
aware of a recent controversial
issue. It involvesthe removal of
David W. Marston, the U. S.
Attorney for eastern Pennsylvania. Under the spoil
system the Carter Administration has the right to
replace Marston . But why has
Attorney General Bell waited so
long? Marston, a Republican,
has successfully prosecuted two
of
the
most powerful
Democratic politicans of the
la*stdecadev Herbert Fineman,
and Henry J. Cianfrani, on
corruption charges. Marston 's
past record is indicative of his
ability as a U. S. Attorney.
Ironically, it was President
Carter who a number of times
vowed to keep politics out of
Justice Department
appointments. It is my opinion
that Marston will be replaced,
not because of his so called
"incompetency , " but because
of his current investigation of
Rep. Joshua Eilerg law firms '
financing of a Philadelphia
hopsital. It was Eilerg who told
President Carter: j -You've got
to replace Marston . Anybody
but Marston. And it's got to be
gast." And besides, this is a
election year and'futher convictions and investigations are
something the Democrats can
do without.

For three consecutive years the department of foreign language
has noted a steady increase in the nurnber of its enrollments. Some
of this added increase can be credited to "Roots", that is, people
having a sincere desire to explore their ethnic backgrounds. Other
explanations for the deman d of foreign language courses could be:
people now have a desire to become more aware of other cultures
both past and present, people are hopin g to show another dimension
to a prospectiveemployer, or, maybe, people are just interested in
commun icating with those millions of people to whom English is a
foreign language.
Would you like to be able to converse fluently in French, German ,
Italian , Latin, Polish , Russian , or Span ish? Well if any of these
subjects sound interesting the foreign lan guage department at BSC
has the course for you!
"Our offerings, " stated Allen Murphy, department chairman,
"are supportive of a new effort to increase the study of foreign
lan guages throughout the country."
Undoubt edly BSC is doing its share to help, Italian made its
debute in the college curriculum in the fall of '76. For the first time
in the history of BSC, Polish is being taught this semester. Latin,
which has been absent from course offerings since.before World
War II , is making a reappearan ce. The response of students has
been most favorable and indicates that these newcomers to the
lan guag e program are strong and welcome additions. While only
the first year courses are offered , intermediate courses may be
taught if student interest is indicated.
French , German , Span ish — the more commonly taught
lan guag es have broaden ed their offerings over the past few years.
In all three lan guage courses are now offered in conversation,
culture or civilization , literat ure in the lan guag e, and literature in
English translations.
At a foreign language conference held in Wash ington Paul Simon
(D-Ill.) announced the concern of President Carter for an increase,
in this coun try, in the study of foreign lan guages andculture.
Bloomsburg State College is definately doing its share to help.

purpose of continuing her study
of Australian literature,
specifically in the area of

Lauer travelled to Australia
where, in her studying, became
aware of the greatness of

with this poet, Lauer was given
tours by her generous hostess.
Walker also lent some of her
unpublished works to Lauer to
read and to study. Lauer really
enjoyed her stay in Australia
and said, "I learned much more
than I had expected."
Lauer's study in Australian
Literature is only one account of
the many opportunities open to
the professors who meet certain
criteria.
After seven years of successful full-time teaching, a
professor may apply for a
sabbatical leave of absence
from the college. One of the four
following reasons must be intended in order to be granted a
sabbatical: 1) restoration of
health, 2) travel, 3) study 4)
research. Included in this grant
is one semester leave with full
year salary or under certain
circumstances, one full year
leave with half salary. To
receive this opportunity, the
eligible professor must first
submit an application a year in
advance, stating the specific
purpose of the leave, how it will
serve the college and benefit
him as an individual. Since no
more than five percent of the
BSC faculty can be granted a
sabbatical in any one giveri
year, committees examine the
applications to decide who will
receive the grants. From there,
applications proceed to the
President who ultimately approves the sabbatical.

The Huskies are back.
After struggling through the
first seven games of the season,
winning three and losing four,
the
Bloomsburg

basketball team won their fifth
straight game Monday night
with a convincing 112-94
thrashing of Pennsylvania
Conference foe Millersville
State.
The Huskies began the night
with a quick start. Holding the
Marauders to only one field goal
in the first seven minutes, BSC
rang up 17 points. Hot-shooting
Al Williams scored eight of
those point s, with Miles
"Buddy " Reitnouer adding six.
Millersville tried desperately
to get back into the game before
things could get out of hand.
Thanks to the outside shooting
of Pat Ross and Keith Perkins,
MSC got to within seven at 23-16
with nine minutes left . This was
as close as the Marauders could
get the rest of the n ight. The
Husky defense forced MSC to
try long range shots, and the
rebounding of Steve Bright,
Williams , and Bill Tillman took
away any chan ce of second and
third shots. Williams continued
his scoring binge as the Huskies
ran up a 53-42 halftime lead.

Harry Warren returned to

games. Warren looked shaky at
first, but proceeded to hand out
six assists. Tillman , who has
really come into his own in the
last two games, also had six
assists.
The Huskies placed four men
in double figures, three of them
over the 20-point mark, in
winning their eighth of the
season against four losses.
Williams took game honors with
28 points. Reitnouer added 23,
Bright 21, and Jeff Slocum (wh o

chipped in 10. MSC had six
players in double figures, with

leading the way with 17 points.
As a team, the Huskies had
one of those shooting nights that
every coach dreams of , as they
hit on 47 field goals out of 82
attempts for 57 percent. Individual high percentages were

by Williams (13-23, 57 percent),
Reitnouer ( 10-16; 63 percent),
and Bright (8-11, 73 percent).
The 112 points was a team high
for1977-78, as was the 26 assists.
The win by the Huskies upped
their PSCAC mark to two wins
and one loss, just one game
behind the leaders. Early in the
year, BSC did not look like a
title contender. But now, with a
little more playing time under
their belt, the team' has molded
itself into a solid unit, and has
the ability to compete with
anyone in the PSCAC east
division.
HUSKY HEADLINES: The
Huskies were without the
services of guards John Bucher
and George Foering, due to
injuries sustained to them last
week. The BSC freshman team
made it a clean sweep of the
evening, as they beat the MSC
frosh 74-60. There was a nice
crowd in Nelson to watch the
Huskies win, a sharp contrast to
the sparse crowds in the three
home games during break.
Nelson will be alive - with

the Huskies square off with
Mansfield State. Another big
game tomorrow will be the
