Majorneedsclarification

BY LENORE FIRSCHING
With the finalizing of the new
BA degree available in Mass
Communications, Mr. Erich
Frohman and Mrs. Melville
Hopkins of the Speech
Department wish to clarify
some facts about the program
thatx may have caused confusion. The program, which has
the
by
been v . ¦ . passed
Representative Assembly, has
been sent to the Department of
Education in Harrisburg for
finalization.
The Mass Communications
major is required to take fifteen
credits in core courses designed
to represent a selection that will
givs the student an overall
introduction to the mass media ;
these include the following:
Introducting to Journalism,
Mass Communication and the
Popular Arts, Introduction to
Radio and television, and
Business and Professional
Speech; he also must choose
one of three courses : Cinema
Appreciation, Theater as Mass
Media or History of Film to
complete the core requirements.
After completing these five
courses, the student may take
any one of six sequences: Ad
vertising, Journalism, Publicity
and Public Relations, Radio,
Speech, or Television. A
seventh sequence, Film, may
also be offered.
Plans include the possibility

of building a fully equipped
television studio in Bakeless
Center; Frohman explained
that specifications are being
worked out for a complete color
TV/ studio .that will be compatible with professional
stations. BSC would be capable
of broadcasting over the local
cable ( not to be confused with
WVIA) to the local population.
The studio could also be used in
continuing education; a lecture
could be telecast to several
classes simultaneously.
"What we are hoping for is a
studio which has quality
equipment that is compatible
with professional television
stations," Frohman said. This
would make it possible to
coordinate shows with WVIA by
making videotapes to be sent to
WVIA for broadcasting.
Frohman wishes to clarify
that there are not two courses
existing with the title "Introduction to Mass Communications," as was stated in
the article of Feb. 3. The
English Department is offering
a course entitled "Introduction
to Mass Communications —
Print Media ;" the Speech
Department is offering the
other course, entitled "Mass
Communications and the
Popular Arts."
The Mass Communications
program will be the first truly
interdisciplinary major offered
at BSC; many different

Criminal acts of
semester listed

by NANCY ROWLANDS
Few are aware of the increasing criminal acts which
are occurring at Bloomsburg
State College. The following is a
list of criminal occurrences - all
which have taken place since
the beginning of the semester.
FORGERY — Sometime
during the month of December
a personal check for an amount
exceeding three figures was
written against the account of a
BSC student. The check was
cashed' by an unknown person.
Currently under investigation .
THEFT — Sometime on the
evening of January 10, a pair of
new construction boots were
taken from a janitor's closet in
Elwell Hall. The boots were
valued at $25. Currently under
investigation.
THEFT — On January 23,
someone entered a female
student's room in Montour Hall.
Upon returning to the room,' the
female student discovered that
a wallet and a checkbook had

been removed irom her purse.
She stated that she had left the
room for approximately five
minutes. The wallet which had
originally contained no money
was found intact in one of the
stairwells located in Montour
Hall. On January , 27, she
received by mail an envelope
containing her checkbook and a
note stating 'found along highway "near Elysburg.' No checks
had been written.
FORGERY — During the
month of January, a female
student in Northumberland Hall
fell victim to an act of forgery.
Sometime between the arrival
of her mail to the dorm and her
visit to her postalbox, someone
took her mail. In this piece of
mail were three $50 check's, all
reported missing. Two of these
checks have turned up - forged
and cashed at a local bank, the
third check remains missing.
Currently under inv estigation.

Frohman. would like to thank
the departments of Business,
Economics, English, and Art as
well as the various other
organizations in the college
community for their outstanding cooperation.

The critical parking situation in Bloomsburg was emphasized
during the Town Council meeting Monday.
Residents of East 3rd street raised the question when something
would be done by both the town and the college about the parking
problem . The residents complained that they cannot park on that
street because of the masses of students cars that fill the street. They
stated that protection of people and property is hampered by all
thenars.
Incidents were cited where fire fighting equipment and ambulances could not get through all the cars to do their jobs.
Residents proposed several solutions to the problem. They would
like to see Council enact an ordinance that would permit only residential parking on East 3rd street-and other streets with the,
same problem. Action was also suggested to allow property owners
to have care - illegally parked - in their private driveways towed
away at the car owner's expense.
Displeasure with the way the college is handling the situation was
also expressed by the residents. They are tired of all the talking
being done by both the town and the college. They would like to see
some positive action taken to ease the problem.
Jerrold A. Griffis, Vice President for Student Life, sent a statement, presented by John H. Abell, Director of Housing, which stated
how the college had committees working on the problem and that
they ttib are looking for a solution.
.It was decided that the matter would be investigated until the
next meeting.

Council changes format

by JULIE STAMETS
"To provide a cultural
climate for the college as well
as the surrounding community"
is the main objective according
to the Constitution of the
Bloomsburg State College
Community Arts Council. The
Council, recently reorganized,
has undergone many changes
with the main purpose of
creating a total cultural , experience at Bloomsburg State
College and the community
itself. t .
.
The Arts Council, previously
consisting of twelve active
members, has been enlarged to
about 21 members, with equal
student -faculty representation,
including nine students, nine
faculty members, one community representative, the
Director of Cultural Affairs,
and the Coordinator of Stage
Facilities. Membership also
includes representatives of the
standing- sub-committees.
The organization of the subcommittees is perhaps the most
prominent change in the
Council's make-up. Each subcommittee is made up of those
showing expertise and a strong
interest in that particular area.

.

.

The
sub-committees
are:Theatre, Film, and Dance;
Music; Art; Literature; and
Lectures. Each sub-committee
has a chairperson who is elected
by the members of that committee. The sub-committees
also have a faculty represen-

tative from an appropriate
department as a member. The
sub-committee on Theatre ,
Film, and Dance, for example,
has a representative from the
Speech Department as do the
other sub-committee with their

Flu strikes BSC,

An influenza type flu is striKing thousands of students on at
least 12 Pennsylvania college campuses. According to state Health
Secretary Leonard Bachman, things are likely to get worse before
they get better.

Cheyney State College in Chester County was closed?ali( of last
week because of the flu outbreak. Some 264 students were reported
sick at the college.
At Kutztown State College, 587 of the"2,500 students were reported ill last week.
The flu is running a pattern see around" the rest of the country.
It's hitting the younger aged people, under the age of 25, almost

This A-Russian strain of flu virus is related to a virus prevalent
in the United States between 1947 and 1957. If this is true, older
adults could retain a certain degree of immunity against it.

Time is up — almost
Today is the deadline to pick up petitions to run for Community Government Association offices for 1978-79.
. To date (Feb. 14) there have been ffve petitions taken
out to run for office. That means there is only one person
running for each office of CGA.
Actually I'm sure those running really don't mind the lack
of competition but there are many of you who are responsible enough to offer some stiff competition. Where's your
sense of democracy , would you like only one choice when
you're voting in a national election?
Many of you probably feel that the above statement
doesn 't really apply since CGA isn't .running the country
but it runs much of the college and is directly responsible
for the things that happen campus-wide. You do attend
BSC so you are directly effected by CGA decisions.
There are many ways to try and sell this idea of running
tor election to you, there 's always catchy phrases - PUT A
PETITION IN EVERY BOX , OR CGA WANTS YOU - but that 's
really being juvenile for college students . If students
are all supposed to be interested in bettering college
jife and getting some gripes solved then run , this is your
chance.
CGA is represented by students and handles budgets
for all organizations. They are also responsible for initiating many new policies to better BSC. It's a majo r part of
the college and students are the leaders of it.
If that's not enough of a reason to sell you than consider
the prestige and experience of being a college leader.
Right now is the time to do something. Even at this late
date all that is required is to pick up a petition in the CGA
Office (to p floor Kehr Union) and have it signed by TOO
college students. (Bring it to the Voice Office , we'll sign
it) This will enable you to be in the election.
The positions available are President , Vice-president ,

[_
The jofe market in the outside
world, that meaning other than
Bloomsburg, is something that
many people come to college to
avoid or to fit into better. The
commercial that states "To get
a good job you need a good
education", may not hold true
for many . In fact, my persevering cousin, just a year out
of high school now holds a
quarter of a million dollars in
real estate assets. No, I'm not
jealous of hirh , rather, I feel
proud that he had enough spunk
to learn how to deal in real
estate before he left high school.
If he were to have enrolled in a
college and taken real estate
courses he might do average in
those subj ects, yet be a wizard
when it comes to practical
application. College is not for
everyone.
When you graduate, if you 're
here long enough, you will be
able to tell whether or not postsecondary education is valuable
or not. Students will be in lines
waiting for a single position in
which there may be over 500

being real leaders and stop pushing responsibilities on to
others. To all those who have picked up petitions , congratulations you have truly displayed interest in this college.
Remember , time is almost up.

some ra ther startling statistics.
If we arbitrarily draw the line
after age 22, when most college
students of traditional age earn
their exit visas in the form of a
diploma, almost 20 per cent of

ther. .
Looking to another set of
students who feel that just a BA
or a BS is ju st BS, they will
continue to expose themselves
to another year of torture in a
classroom situation to obtain a
Master 's Degree. As the quality
goes up, the quantity goes down.
Thinking that just a bachelor's
degree will get you anywhere is
a lot of garbage, in certain
cases, because many employers
require that a Master's, be had
plus so many years of experience. (The question of how

to fill in the EXPERIENCE
blank on an application is
always a difficult hurdle to
cross over. )
Is getting a Master 's* degree
worth the extra schooling,
and
headaches , money
studying? A lot of seniors, eager
for May to materialize, will face
this question and bat .the idea
around in their minds.
What a Master's degree can
help you in is getting qualified
for a rriore intense and higher
paying j ob. BUT, the stress put
upon someone adds years
before they 're due; more
money means more taxes ,
unless you can make
megabucks; -it could possibly
waste a year of practical
learning in a field that you're
interested in or it could also
bore the hell out of you.
Putting a value on education
is common and people tend to
put a price tag rather than a
living tag on the education that
is acquired from a full college
career.

Treasurer , Corresponding Secretary and Recording Secretary . There is bound to be one position you are capable

We have presented this issue to you because we feel it
is unfair to have a student election where there is such
a lack of interest. It 's time that students move toward

for if they were counted in, the
figure would j ump up to over 28
per. cent of the combined
groups.
Even one out of every five
undergraduates is a significant
statistic. As one might expect,
the "bulge" comes right after
age 22 and continues for a few
years , dropping somewaht
sharply after age 35. Those
students represent 87 per cent of
the older students. The
remaining 13 per cent of older
students is scattered over all
the age categories beyond, right
up to "age 61 and older" (of
which there are three).
The presence of even this
many "over 35's" in the undergraduate or non-degree
programs makes us wonder
about purpose, since it is less
likely that these students are
back in school (or in for the first
time) to better themselves on
the job or to enhance employment opportunities. Many
are seeking knowledge for
personal satisfaction , which
begins to put education in a new
perspective.
Just a few days ago I heard a
prediction made by College
Misericordia that by 1985, which
is only a short seven years
away, it is expected that 45 per
cen^of the college students on
campus will be beyond
traditional college age.
And THAT would certainly
shake up the college picture,
First of all, it would probably
mean fewer dormitory students
and more commuters. Some of

the residence halls might have
to be converted to other uses,
while parking facilities would
be at a premium and need to be
expanded. Car pools would
probably be strongly urged, to
alleviate increasing parking
problems.
Then the curriculum would
need to undergo some revision.
There would probably be less
demand for physical education,
freshman composition and
other required courses, with
new courses developing that
more nearly meet the needs and
interests of older students.
The social implications would
surely be felt. Dating would
take on a different aspect, with
dating partners increasingly
sought outside of campus. The
"in-group " feeling that is
prevalent in a tightly agestandardized group would
dissipate. The "we students
against the world" kind , of
identification would probably
give way to a more realistic
"we students ARE part of the
world" belief .
These changes in themselves
are neither good nor bad, but
would certainly be felt by all
students. Accommodations
would need to be made.
In future columns, perhaps
we can begin to meet some of
these Late Bloomers who for
now are just faceless statistics.
Perhaps they can tell us more
about this trend by sharing
some of their own reasons for
being among us, thus putting
some flesh and bones on the
statistics.

Editor 's Note : We would like
to point out that both the

on the facts that appeared in the

We suggest that in the future
only the facts be given to the

what they are saying.
It is also suggested that the

consult the media when
problems arise rather than
saving their statements for
letters.

Are you tired of Bloomsburg?
Do you want some excitement
in your education? There is an
organizationhere at BSC ready,
willing, and able to add a touch
of spice to your college years:
The Pennsylvania Consortium for International
Education sponsors study
programs abroad: PCIE is a cooperative agreement within
the state college system
focusing on international
education. For the past six
years, PCIE has offered a
program of study for credit in
Salzburg, Austria. The program
consists of one week of orientation in Austria, three weeksof
classes and an optional two
weeks of travel after the
academic session has terminated. Along with the
cultural experience, the
program offers three credits
toward your college degree.
The sessions run similar to
summer school here. Study in
Salzburg may be a little more
interesting than in Bloomsburg,
though. Weekend trips incorporated into the program
allow the curious and adventuresome
to
occupy
themselves in ways other than
academically.
Proposed offerings
According to Professor Mary
Lou John, one of BSC's PCIE
representatives, each state
college and university in
Pennsylvania is invited to
propose a course of study in
Salzburg. They try to chose
courses that have resources in;
Salzburg such as Hitler, music,
exploring Austrian family way
of life and frawing and painting
in Austria.
Mr. Nelson Miller, a music
professor here at BSC is offering Music of the Romantic
Era this summer in Salzburg.
Students from BSC may apply
for enrollment in either Miller's
class or any of the courses offered by another college. Applications are available from
-Miller and John and are now
' being accepted for consideration.
The application is basically a
formality. A student must be in
good academic standing in one
of the state colleges to be admitted into the program. Very t
few students are denied ad-

mission.
There have been no problems
With students having to be
returned to the States. Those
that go understand and comply
with the rules of PCIE.
"Students act as emissaries of
the
United
States ,
as
representatives of Ameirca,"
says John. The program and the
students are responsible for the
welfare of the group individually and collectively.
London theater
Another summer program,
endorsed by PCIE but not
specifically a PCIE function, is
Dr. Susan Rusinko's trip to
London. The study is a theater
summer tour during the last two
weeks in May.
The proposed Mexico trip to
take place over Christmas
break had some trouble getting
off the ground. "There were
other programs planned by
PCIE which did not develop and
so Dr. (Allen) Murph y
(department
of
foreign
languages) agreed to try to
organize this one," commented
John. Not enough students
signed up to go. John feels that
if the trip had been organized
before summer, more students
would have gone. "It is better
when students know before the
summer so they can plan work
and schedules accordingly."
An excursion to Mexico will
be offered next January. Information concerning the trip
will be available to the college
community this spring.
Representing Bloomsburg State
College at PCIE are Dr.
Richard 'Wolfe, Dean of Extended Programs, and John.
They encourage students to
take advantage of the study
abroad programs offered.

JAZZ IS STILL TO BE FOUND...And it will be found on Sunday evening in the kehr Union
when Mike Santiago and Entity appear in a coffeehouse performance at 9 p.m.

Record Review

by TOBY LOYD
I must confess that before
listening to this album I had
preconceived doubts as to its
quality, simply because Blohdie
is a "New Wave"- band, which
puts them in the category of
punk-rock, and punk-rock has
thus far done nothing for me
emotionally except make me
laugh, and nothing for me
musiccally, period. I recognized
my own bias however, and so I
tried to be extra careful not to
condemn it without a fair trial.
Well, its had its fair trial and the
verdict remains unchanged.
This album is doo-doo, and I
have but one question to ask of
this band about themselves and
their music ^ Why?
As it turns out, Blondie is not
a typical punk band, and as a
matter of fact, they aren't a

The essen ce of mediocrity

Coffeehous e

Jazz and rock lovers will get a
chance to hear some of their
favorite music this Sunday
evening at 9-.00 in the Kehr
Union. Mike Santiago and his
recently formed band, Entity,
are appearing in a show
sponsored by the Coffeehouse
committee.
Entity is a five piece quintet
that is composed of highly
accredited and accomplished
musicians, including Mike
Santiago, Ronnie Glick, Dave
La Rue, Tom Baker and Rich
Sussman. Their music is sensitive and colorful, expressing
feelings and experiences tha t
the audience can 3'come to grips
with on an individualistic
level."
Santiago's accreditations
include performing and
recording
for
baritone
saxophonist Gerry Mulligan

' ¦¦ '

".

and drummer Chico Hamilton.
He has also toured the United
States and Europe, playing with
such jazz greats as Stan Getz,
Eric Kloss and Barry Miles.
Bassist Dave La Rue and
percussionist Tom Baker attend
the College of Music in Boston.
La Rue is also the assistant
Musical Director and bassist for
the music program at Boston
University.
The show isn't for jazz lovers
alone, as past "*coffeehouse's
have shown. Everyone is invited to attend and enj oy the
music.

punk band at all. Exactly wha t
they are still escapes me, and it
won't bother me one bit , if I
never find out. I guess in
essence what Blondie is, is a
group of very mediocre
very
musicians
playing
unoriginal music, relying on a
gimmick and their record
company 's promotion campaign to make it. Their gimmick is Deborah Harry, their
lead singer, who sounds like a
melodic Patti Smith (if that's
conceivable) and who dyes her
hair either blond or brown (it s
both colors and I'm not sure
which is the original) and
moves suggestively around the
stage during their per;
formances. Rut since you can't
see her , moving suggestively
around the stage when you
listen to this record, you have to
rely on her voice for entertainment, and that kills the
whole thing right there .
Therefore, I have been led to the
inevitable conclusion that
without the hype, Blondie is but
a vast musical void.
"Plastic Letters" is at best an
exercise in mediocrity. The
production job is a joke and it

sounds as if the recording were
done in the bathroom of a neighborhood service station. The
music has; been stolen from
almost any band you can name
from the early sixties to the
present, and isn't performed
nearly as well or nearly as
convincingly as the originals.
The lyrics are banal, empty and
self-consciously ' punk, sporting
titles like "Youth Nabbed as
Sniper", . "Bermuda Triangle
Blues", 'Tm On E", etc. In
short, the album keeps the
listener constantly asking what
the point is, and the answer is
simple ... there isn't one.
Blondie and "Plastic Letters"
have nothing new to offer and
nothing new to say. They may
try to hide behind the facade of
being a "goodtime band", but
there are countless other
"goodtime bands" that will give
you a much better time.
Well, just like Blondie, I have
nothing else to say except this;
don't spend your money on this
album, spend it on something
you'll enjoy like a piece of gum
or a candy bar ... you know,
something a little more worth
your while. '

Ap a t hy
noted at
recent meeting

by JIM PEFFLEY
Student apathy is a subject
which has been commented
upon constantly. However, the
subject came up, once again, at
a recent meeting of CGA.
The big topic of the night was
concerning upcoming CGA
elections. Although the deadline
for petitions is today (Friday ) ,
only one petition for each office
had been filed.
Other topics of interest included a budget committee
report, a report from CAS, a
report from the lawyer comniittee and a proposal for a
letter campaign concerning the
lowering of the drinking age.
The Budget committee gave
reports concerning the Community Activities fee, CGA
vehicle mileage rates, and meal
monies allotted for travel.
There was a possibility that the
above items may have to be
raised cost-wise. A main concern for students is the fact that

Calander for Summer
Sessions - 1978

the Community Activities fee
may. ~be raised from $30 a
semester to $35 a semester.
However, none of the above
could be acted upon, due to the
fact that there were not enough
CGA members present , to
*
comprise a quorum.
. Nancy Oliver, speaking for
CAS, again requested students
to write their Representatives
concerning the lowering of the
drinking age. In an effort to
motivate students to write, a
night will be set at the Commons for students to write
letters, with supplies and
assistance from CGA. CGA
would also take the responsibility of mailing the letters.
Tne next meeting ot CGA will

at . 6:30 p.m. At this meeting,
they will attempt to vote on the
issues discussed at the previous

will follow. AH students are

' Mark Trama - Freshman -1,

The Democrats exposed -, feel that firing Marston was a
themselvesa little too much this
mistake. His record shows what
time. The public noticed and , an excellent job he has done as
demanded justice,.;;but the
District Attorney. To fire him
"political system" covered it up
because of hisparty affiliation
again.
and because it has beendone in
the past is just demonstrating to
me that Carter is renigging on
his. campaign platform.

Doug Prescott - Sophomore I'm really disappointed with
President Carter's having
agreed to get rid of Marston.
Finally we had an honest
politician who was doing what
everyone in politics is supposed
to do, and when the corrupt
one 's got in trouble, they
pressuredfor his firing. I would
really like to see him remain
and continue his purge of the
political system. -

Stephen Vivariha -J/reshman
-1 extremely disagree with the
firing of Marston. . He was
bringing but much corruption in
government and when someone
goes against the system as he
did ; they usually get burnt.

Chrte Zcutgruf .- Freshman This was an example of one of
Carter's many mistakes. He felt
he could push it by the
American public. People will
forget about this issue shortly
and the good job Marston was
doing. A DISGRACE.

Lou Hunsinger - Junior - I'm
disappointed. It demonstrates
the .more things change the
more they stay the same.
Carter campaigned on a high
moral tone promising honest,
open
government s This
situation proves he doesn't
intend to live up to that.

Jill Mahnkin - Freshman This is just one more way in
which Carter is going back on
his promises. I strongly
disagree with his decision.

Sandy Myers - Sophomore -1
really disagree with Carter's
decision, One of his promises
was a clean government, I think
he's failed in this case. His
decision to fire someone who
was fighting for that cause is a
complete contradiction of that
promise.

Part IV

The Herod Experiment

"What'll it be? " asked the
bartender over the blare of the
jukebox.
"Pitcher of Schlitz," Mike
Wollenheim requested.
"Got any I D.?"
"Yeah — Here..." He held out
the laminated PLCB . The
barkeep brought it over to the
light and studied the face.
"Okay. How many glasses
d'you want?"
"We've got glasses, thanks."
With a nod his pitcher was
taken and filled. Mike drew two
soiled bills out of his breast
pocket and payed for the lager,
carrying it back to his friends'
table in the rear. He took his
seat and poured a round.
"Thanks Wally," said Lydia,
the girl whose drink he'd j ust
finished pouring.
"My pleasure. What's our
current topic of discussion?
When I went for the pitcher we
were talking about the waveparticle duality of light."

"Oh we've finished with that
one. Now we're on Star Trek
trivia. Bob just asked What
Chekov's brother's name was;
have you any idea?"
"That's a trick question,"
Wollenheim asserted, "you see,
Chekov speaks about his
brother Peoter in The Day of the
Dove, but as Sulu points out in
the episode, he's an only child."
"Leave it to Simons to make
things complicated," she said.

"Say, isn't that Dr. Grummel
sitting over there with Dean
Stierscheist?"
"Why so it is. It wonder what
he's doing down here at Hess'?"
"Probably relaxing after that
speech he gave about student
apathy. Let's go over, and say
hello. Maybe he'll tell us why
we're the only BSC students
they allowed to stay."
"Yeah. He might even tell us
what's going on around here."
They nonchalantly edged
their way over and plunked
themselves down in the seats
next to Clarence Grummel and
Ed Stierscheist as the two sat
slurping their scotch and sodas.
Lydia did most of the talking,
extending her hand and introducing herself: "Doctor Grummel, I'm Lydia
Baker and this is Mike
Wollenheim. We just wanted to
tell you how much" we enjoyed
your parable this afternoon . Uh,
well that was one of our reasons
for wanting to meet you. Could
we ask you? some questions
about the Herod Experiment?"
"Sure. I was speaking to Ed
just now, about our primary
objectives. Why don't you join
us; we could use some student
input," Clarence replied.
"What are your primary
objectives?" Mike asked.
"To perfect education ; free it
from its traditional flaws. When
we have finished at Bloomsburg
it will be the first step in that

"How?" Lydia asked. "I don't
see how one experiment can
change the entire course of
education. Especially one
performed here." v
"Ah but you will. It would
spoil the result if I told you
exactly how and why all this is
to be done. The procedure is not
so crucial: There are a dozen
ways to make steel and the end
product is the same. Part of our
outcome is whether or not you
twelve are able to decypher our
hypothesis with your own
ingenuity."
"So there are twelve of us in
all ," Mike said.
"Twelve students — a male
and female representative from
each undergraduate class and
two levels of graduate study. I
selected all of you myself , as is
the case with a sprinkling of
faculty, staff , and administrators. Right Dean S?"
"Yes Doctor Grummel," Ed
attested. "You see, you 've been
selected to observe the experiment in operation and also
to provide the new students with
some idea of what it was like
here for the past four years."
Mike Wollenheim swallowed
hard. He filled his glass and
poured Lydia 's full as an afterthought. "We're in this
together, then," he said.
Grummel nodded. He clinked
his tumbler of scotch against
their beer glasses. "All for one,
and one for all," Clarence
toasted, His drink was deep as
would with beer- suffice, noted
the two who sat drinking it.
They further refrained from
toast-inspiring utterances by

and then sports, and finally to

game

by SUE BARRON
and SUE HENNINGER
The first period of BSC's
^
February 2 game against
Juniata set the pace for the high
scoring; penalty ridden game.
Juniata skated away with three
goals and two penalty minutes
and BSC left the ice with six
minutes in penalties. ,
At the start of the second
period Bloomsburg switched
goal-tenders and put in freshman Dave Abelman. It looked
as though things might pick up
for BSC as Larry Barker,
midway into the period, made it
past Juniata 's defense arid
scored. Soon after Juniata
scored, but BSC's offense again
skated by Juniata and for the
second time it was Barker who
scored, this time assisted by
Beamer and Halberstadt. By
the end of the second period,
Bloomsburg had six more
penalty minutes and Juniata
two more, but the score was
now 4-2 in favor of Juniata.
At five minutes into the third
period BSC's Ted Avil scored
unassisted, but Juniata came
back swiftly and scored. Soon
after the goal by Juniata,
Bloomsburg fought their way
into the opposition's defensive
zone and Kevin Hyatt put a shot
past the Juniata goal-tender
making it a 5-4 game. The
outcome looked bright as BSC's
number 10 - "Umpy " made a
goal assisted by Steve Black
which tied the score 5-5. In the
last minute of play BSC pulled
their goal-tender to have six
skaters on the ice, increasing
their chances of getting the
winning goal , but after a

The latest addition to the BSC
"world of sports" is the
women's gymnastics team, now
in its first season.
The ten team members have
been practicing diligently since
September. Some of them never
even had a team in high school.
. Those girls , who were
members of a high school
gymnastics team agreed that
the BSC team is quite different
from high school teams.
"It's a lot more professional
than ~in high school," commented team member Sandy
Eckhart.
A few others pointed out that
the present team is much more
demanding
than
their
respective high school teams.
The amount of work required
can plainly be seen by viewing
a typical gymnastics practice,
which usually lasts for about
two and a half hours..'
Each girl works on at least
two events during practices.
They all receive much'help and
encouragement from Coach
