Policy changes desira ble
. by MARY WRIGHT
BSC faculty are overwhelmingly in favor of maintaining the policy of general
education requirements in the
college curriculum , though
most feel that present policies
should be examined and
modified. These findings are
revealed in a faculty, survey
recently completed by Dr. John
Baird , Chairman of the
Department of Psychology.
In evaluating the current
general education requirements
in the BSC curriculum, while 90
percent of faculty members are
in favor of some requirements,
85 percent feel that changes
within the system are desirable.
Fewer than 10 percent favor
dropping general education
requirements altogether.
In response to more specific
questions on G.E.R. content,
opinion was more divided on
what modifications were
desirable. Retention of current
requirements
to
ensure
proficiency in English was most
heavily stressed, with 74 percent voting to retain English
101, and 63 percent to retain
English 200 or 201.
In Health - Physical
Education, while 50 percent of
faculty members favor full
retention of the current
requirements and another 26
percent favor continuance of a
modified program, 45 percent
favor discarding the swimming
proficiency requirements.
While 55 percent of the faculty
favor retention of the current
Special ElectiveS Group Concept (Humanities and Arts;
Social and Behavioral Sciences;
Natural
Science
and
Mathematics) , 52 percent would
like to see the 15-12-12 semester
hours division within this
grouping modified with 58
percent favoring retention of
the requirement that at least
two
departments
be
represented within each
grouping. Opinion.was almost
evenly divided on the question
of a student's major discipline
being additional to these
e d u c at i o n
general
requirements.
Opinion was also evenly
divided on the question of
minimum number of semester
hours required for general
education r e qu i r e m e n t s
(currently 58) , and also on the
question of whether such
courses should be strictly
defined such that only a few
courses in each department
would qualify, or broadly
defined such that most courses
would qualify.
The final question concerned
the course numbering system,
with two-thirds of faculty
members favoring a standard
system based on general content and difficulty,' to be applied
to all departments.

The Kehr Union Travel
Service, in an attempt to expand the variety of trips offered
to students, staff , and faculty,
will be sponsoring many trips in
collabora tion with Catawese
Coach Lines.
The Fall semester 1978 holds
many opportunities for those
who wish to travel. Such ex-
Coalition for med by CAS
The formation of the Coalition
Against Discrimination (CAD)
was the major achievement at
the Commonwealth Associa tion
of Students (CAS) legislative
conference last weekend at
Indiana University of Pennsylvania.
"It is a landmark step, " said
CAS Minority Board Chairman
Clarence Carter , of IUP, who
played a major role in the
formation of the coalition. "The
only way it will work is by a
total commitment by all four
task forces involved and total
understanding by the legislative
body as a whole."
The CAS board of minority
representatives, in an historic
compromise involving three
other task forces, formed the
coalition with one stipulation.
CAD reserved the right to be
sole reviewer of itself after a
one year probationary period,
with the power to reject the
coalition and search of an
alternative structure, or continue with the CAD in its
existing form.
The other task forces involved
included representatives of
women's, gays, and han-
Break-in
underinvestigation
A break-in occurred at the College Store Wednesdaynight after
midnight.
According to Security Chief Richard Neuffer , "Sometime after
midnight a person or persons entered the College Store through a
window on the east side of the building. At the present time, nothing
is known to be taken, pending an inventory."
Neuffer added, "An investigation is continuing and the Pennsylvania State Police have been called In to assist."
"Anyone having any knowledge of the break-in is asked to contact the security office at 389-2617. All information will be held in
confidence," Neuffer added.
dicapped students. TheBoard of
Minority Representatives, onethird of the legislative body of
CAS under the old structure,
gave up some of its voting
power in favor of creating a
coalition which would give
"better representation to other
minorities being discriminated
against," said CAS staff intern,
Chris Leavey, of Slippery Rock
State College.
there were two arguments
against formation of the CAD.
One concern was voiced by the
Board of Minority Representatives who felt it would be
sacrificing its voting power.
cursions as the Ice Follies in
Hershey and a tour of Longwood
Garden are being offered.
Shopping tours to Reading and
Plymouth Meeting Mall are also
on the tour schedule. The
Broadway show "Beatlemania"
is another trip which may interest students.
According to Mike Sowash,
Operations Manager at the
Kehr Union, sign up for all trips
is at the Information Desk at
which time the total cost must
be paid. Those trips which are
solely sponsored by the Kehr
Union and not in conjunction
with Catawese Coach Lines will
depart from the front of Elwell
Hall. Those associated with
Catawese will leave from the
A&P parking lot. Sowash
stresses that if there is not an
ample number of BSC par
ticipants signed up for a pai
ticular trip, the . Catawese
departure point as well as the
times may vary. The minimum
number of participants is 20 for
a Catawese trip to take place.
The Kehr Union Travel
Service will also be sponsoring
a trip over Spring Break 1979
(Feb. 24 - Mar. 3) to Montego
Bay, Jamaica. The cost will be
$269.00 for eight days and seven
nights. Information on this trip
can be obtained by contacting
Frank Lorah in the Community
Activities Office.
It is very important, according to Sowash, that all
interested people sign up for a
trip as far in advance as
possible, due to the number of
seats available.
While the Board thought the
concerns of women, gays, and
handicapped were important
and worthy of representation, it
felt this representation should
not come at its expense.
Shippensburg Women's Task
force Coordinator Patti Couch,
serving as Minority Board
proxy, said, "the CAD will have
difficulty finding common
ground. Each of the four groups
have separate problems. The
only thing we have in common
now is discrimination," she
added.

A burning question
Hove you ever wondered what would happen in a town
the size of Bloomsburg if there were a major fire? More
specifically, what would happen if you were above the fourth
floor of any building? Could you get out without being burned or suffocating from the fumes?
On campus there are two buildings that come to mind
when fire is mentioned — Elwell and Columbia , residence
halls that together house over 700 women. In town there
is the hospital, and the proposed housing for the elderly.
There are monthly fire drills on campus. According to
William Haney , chairman of fire and water for the Bloomsburg town council , water pumping equipment on campus
is in good condition. The college just purchased three MSA's
which are 30 minute air tanks", for rescue efforts. In a recent
mock fire drill town fire fighters reached campus in four
and a quarter minutes.
How effective are all of these efforts in saving lives if
people on the top floors of the buildings cannot be reached.
Hypothetically, when an alarm sounds the buildings are
evacuated. But what happens when there is a real fire?
With all of the synthetic materials in buildings today, the
toxic fumes will be more danger than the flames said Haney.
What is needed , and what has been suggested to town
council is the purchase of a 100 foot aerial rescue, truck at
the cost of $230,000. Even though the truck could get people
out , more importantl y it would get rescue in to those who
could not be reached any other way. Even if funding can
be found tomorrow , the truck would not be delivered for "14
months.
According to Haney, council is now 'dragging its feet "
until they hear about a loan for the purchase of the truck.
In the past 2 years the town council has been putting $10,000
a year in an escrow account to go "toward the purchase of
fire fighting equipment. The college has given $9,600 in the
past two years "towards the purchase of fire fighting and/or
rescue equipment for high-rise buildings. The figure repre-
sents $4 per student as of September , 1976.
Frank Davis, vice president for administration , has worked
with the town council this summer. He said that althoug h
the college has contributed in the past , they need to see
"substantial progress " by the end of 1978. With this show of
progress ,' it could be in the form of a letter of intent to purchase such equipment , the Board of Trustees will be more
likely to agree to making an annual donation. At the September meeting, the Trustees questioned the progress of the
truck by the town.
Right now the necessity of purchasing the aerial rescue
truck is being questioned by the town . The town of Danville,
nine miles away , recently purchased such a truck. According to Haney, the Milton fire department said they could
help with their aerial rescue truck in case of fire. But as Haney
pointed out , the 25 minutes it would take them to got here
would mean the difference of saving lives or losing them .
The question that should be in the minds of the town
council members and the college is not whether or not
$230,000 is a lot of money, but whether the lives that could
be saved are worth it.
.
Both the town and the college will benefit from the purchase from such rescue equipment . Action needs to- be
taken by all parties concerned to insure the purchase of such
a truck. Working together they will be more likely to find
a source of funds . The sooner the purchase is made, the
sooner a fire will be a situation that can be handled effectively.
When considering the purchase of rescue equipment , the
Trustees of the college shouldn 't just be questioning the
progress of talks. The town and college shouldn 't consider
who is going to benefit more, rather they should consider
how many potentially lost lives can be saved.

Have you got the time?
By BARB HAGAN
"WHAT TIME IS IT?"
Have you ever asked that
question and received ten
different
answers
simultaneously? Or have you
ever traveled from one
classroom to another within the
same building and found extreme changes in time?
Indeed the answers you
receive depend upon the
building and the classroom
you're standing in when you ask
it.
If you're an off-campus
student just forget it. There's no
way that the time on the clock in
jyour house or apartment is
going to match up with the time
indicated on the clocks in
Bakeless, Haas, Kehr Union, or
Carver Hall. 'Each building on
the BSC campus contains within
it, clocks who do their own
thing.
I never realized that when you
travel up the hill from downtown you're entering a new time
zone. That might sound a bit
extreme but when you've been
late for as many classes as I
have you'll understand.
EVery Monday, Wednesday,
and Friday I come close to
cardiac arrest as I reach
Carver Hall and the clock reads
U. The bell begins striking 11
and I race to make it to Hartline. The funny thing is that
just as I reach the building 1
once again hear the ringing of
11. Sounds confusing but it's
true. This would lead you to the
obvious conclusion that I am on
time for class BUT as I open the
door to class I find that it has
already begun. Try explaining
that one to* me.
When I do actually make it oh
time to a class I receive strange
stares from students who seem
unfamiliar to me. Maybe that's
because I've walked in on the
earlier class. I give up.
Let me give you another
example of the demon-like
behavior of clocks on this
campus. Actually I do believe
that they ( the clocks) have
personalities all their own.
The number one building for
clocks with time deviations is
Bakeless. (Maybe there should
be an award for that highly
coveted claim to fame). These
clocks are known for their
inaccuracies - every clock in the

Wax in my ears
Technique adds to Lips
by TOBY LOYD
For all fans of contemporary
acoustic guitar music, the name
Leo Kottke should stand out
immediately. He has won
Guitar Player Magazine 's
"Best Acoustic Guitarist"
category for four years running.
Kottke's music is as original as
any being made today, and in
most cases very much more so.
Kottke himself is an absolutely spellbinding master of
technique and expression, and
his playing is so good it often
scares me. His new album,
"Burnt Lips" (he has a knack
for coming up with some wierd
titles) , like all his others, is
simply incredible, and along
with stunning instrumentals,
contains the first vocal compositions he has written in three
years.
The album begins, unpredictably enough, with a Nick
Lowe tune called "Endless
Sleep." Kottke doing a Nick
Lowe song? "Vive la 'diference!" At times Kottke's 12 -
string sounds like a funky R&B
string section. Very interesting
stuff. "Sonora's Death Row",
another first side highlight,
(Actually every song on the
album is a highlight, but space
only allows me to drool so
much) tells the story of a
cowboy that flips out on mezcal
and shoots his partner whom he
thinks has robbed him
As it turns out, he suddenly
comes out of it and realizes that
the mezcal was playing tricks

TO THE EDITOR :
I am beginning to question the
credibility of the Campus Voice.
I found several misleading and
poorly quoted articles as well as
a general attitude designed to
kill the Shuttle bus Proposal.
In response to the editorial
"$$$ Hinder Bus Plan" Willard
Bradley was quoted as saying;
"Council is not guaranteed
busses from the Catawese
Line." In interviewing Bradley,
he told me that this quote is
misleading: because "The fact
is that Catawese Line has
authority over the Bloomsburg
area. " In other words,
Catawese Lines has exclusive
rights over Bloomsburg for
mass transportation systems.
These rights were given to them
by the state. Therefore, we
either pay Catawese Lines for a
shuttle bus system or appeal to
the state for a license. An appeal could take from one to
three years.
"The bus routes to be used are
not known." Bradley told me
At first glance, I thought it
was a random sampling of BSC
students, but apparently it
portrayed only the opinions and
feelings of the Campus Voice.
Why were Gert McGoff and
Kathe Sophy polled? They are
CGA representatives and had
already expressed their views
and feelings about the proposal
at the first College Council
meeting on September 25.
I would like to see the Campus
Voice publish accurate and
unprejudice articles in hopes
that it will once again regain its
credibility.

Excuse me, some of them read
the same time but it's the wrong
time. Boy that's confusing.
Not only do these mechanical
marvels indicate the wrong
time but the hands of the clocks
have exercises right in the
middle of class. There's nothing
like sitting in your 9:30 a.m.
class and looking up at the clock
to see its hands rapidly movmg
around in all directions. By the
time the clock has finished its

Side Two opens with three

But gradually the

lifts the darkness, and the
countryside is flooded with light

But just as gradually as the
light melted away the darkness,
so it slowly fades, and the

returns and then slowly drifts
quietly away. "Burnt Lips," the

Gnothi Seauton - p i.V
by DUANE LONG
On the way home from Pete
and Mary Ellen's high-brow
activity, she "harumphed" and
sighed, breaking an awkward
silence.
"You haven't said a word
since we left the concert," she
said concerned. "Is something
wrong?"
"Yeah, there's something
wrong. You're damn right there
is. There's something wrong
when you pay attention to an
artist and ignore what art's all
about. Isn't an artist supposed
to portray life?"
"Of course."
"And doesn't life, after all,
take precedence over art?"
"I suppose so."
"Then how do you justify
what you're doing, Mary Ellen?
Why have you become such an
ideological antique collector?"
"I wonder where all this was
leading," she answered angrily.
"Now listen you small-minded
freak—"
"No, God damn you! You

listen. You think of yourself as
some sort of holy virgin, don't
you? Like the man sang at the
concert tonight: "Mache dich
mein Herze rein — "Make thee
clean my heart from sin,"
right? Jesus, you're so blind!
Can't you see what you've
done? You're a psychological
whore, Mary Ellen. You've
been so hot after Bach and
Blake and Plato and Aquinas
and Locke and God only knows
who else, that they've made you
into their concubine. In a
spiritual sense, I mean. Don't
you realize that in "straining
out the gnats" of a way of life
which you don't approve of,
you've "swallowed the camels"
of alienation?"
"If I wanted to be
psychoanalyzed I'd have gone
to see a psychiatrist. And if I'd
wanted a sermon I'd have gone
to church."
"Damn it, woman, I love you!
I care about you. That's why
I'm telling you all this. Please
believe me, Mary. I wouldn't
ever do anything to hurt you. All
I ask is that you open your
heart If not to me, then to life at
least. To hell with the dead
minds you cling to—Live!"
Mary Ellen was silent, and so
was Pete when he realized that
he was only enriching the
carbon dioxide content of the air
with his talking. It was pointless
to go on, he knew. She had had
enough. He pulled the Mustang
in front of Elwell and gently
touched her shoulder as she
turned to get out, feeling her
cringe slightly.
"There's a concert up at Haas
Sunday night— Southside
Johnny and the Asbury Jukes.
Will you go with me?"
"You have some nerve to ask
me that , Peter," was all she
would say.
"Goodnight, then."
"Goodbye, Peter."
She hurriedinto the lobby, her
face a mask of fury and indignation. When Mary Ellen
walked past the young women
in the booths She felt as if each
time they laughed they were
laughing at her—as if somehow
versed in her private
humiliation. A sense of shame
took hold of her, making sleep
difficult. Her roommates had
never known her to talk in her
sleep, but sometime that night
heard her cry out in some sort of
somnambulistic triumph:
"Live!"

Tn your opinion what does a homecoming
sweetheart stand for?
Lori Abrams, JUNIOR — I
thing it doesn't stand for
anything. People just pick
either someone they are friends
with or someonewho happens to
look good in the picture.
Pedro Garcia — I think that the
purpose of the homecoming
contest, for me stands for
beauty ,
popularity
and
nostalgia.
Al Bennett, JUNIOR — It's a
joke. If the students want to use
their time, why don't they do
something more contributive!
;
Donald Davis, SOPHOMORE —
I think it stands for the most
popular girl rather than the best
looking one. Most people choose
the one they know.

Hockey team beats SU; record now 7-1
by DENISE RATH
The Bloomsburg State varsity
fieki,hockey team brought home
two wins on Tuesday as they
defeated the women of
Susquehanna University 4-0.
The BSC junior varsity squad
also earned a win with a score of
2-0. The records of the teams
now stand at 7-1 (varsity ) and 41 (JV) .
The varsity game was not one
of Bloomsburg's better efforts.
Susquehanna consistently out
hustled BSC, and the Huskies
had difficulty generating any
unified play. Though the team
was happy to come away with
the victory, the game left much
to be desired.
The contest did, however,
have some high points for the
Huskies. Early in the first half ,
freshman Joan Mahoney put
BSC ahead, scoring on a pass
from Lauren May. Before the
half ended, Bloomsburg took a
two goal lead when Robin
Maurer scored on a shot from
deep in che right corner.
The second half contained the
same sporadic play that
characterized the first period,
but the Huskies managed to add
two more goals while holding
SU scoreless.
Terry McHale slipped a shot
past the Susquehanna goalie.
Less than five minutes later,
Mahoney scored her second
goal of the afternoon , giving
Bloomsburg the 4-0 win.
The BSC junior varsity improved on the style of piety seen
in the first half . Bloomsburg
held a 1-0 lead at halftime after
Jane Reed scored the game
winner midway through the
period. Peggy Holgar capped a
strong rush by pushing the ball
into the cage for BSC's second
goal during the second half.
Gridders
f ace WC
After routing the Wilkes
College football team last
Saturday by a score of 32-6, the
Husky gridders are hungry for
another victory.
Considering that their next
opponent, the West Chester
State College Golden Rams, are
0-5, the Huskies just might have
their appetite satisfied.
Bloomsburg, now 3-2, will
face the Golden Rams Saturday
at 7:30 p.m. under the lights at
West Chester. This game will
mark the beginning of the
second half of the season,
during which the Huskies hope
to maintain a winning record.

BSC netters lose;
final match today
by CINDY PECK
The women's tennis team
suffered its second loss of the
season Monday when the netters fell 7-2 to East Stroudsburg.
With only Friday 's match at
Lycoming College remaining,
the women's record stands at 52.
ESCC's Marilyn Fiori, in the
top position, defeated Lorie
Keating, 6-0, 7-5, while another
East Stroudsburg netter won a
tough match over Sue Purnell,
3-6, 7-6, 7-5.
Mary Lou Hnatin was the only
singles winner for BSC, as she
fought to a 5-7, 6-2, 6-4 victory
over Sherry Schaeffer. Sally
Marshall , of ESSC defeated
Donna Royer, 6-1, 5-7, 6-1.
In the fourth position, BSC's
Mary McHugh fell 6-3, 6-1 to
Lisa Leeds, while Lorri
Malinski also fell to an ESSC
netter , Marie Magee, 6-1, 6-0.

The Huskies are a mile more
than halfway through , their
season *— one of the best in BSC
hockey history. Senior McHale
leads the scoring race with nine
goals, an average of one per
game. Offensively, the BSC
team has scored a total of 24
goals, while the defense has
allowed only nine to be scored
against them.
The Huskies face Mansfield
away today, and Millersville
away next Friday.
Booters win
The Husky soccer team advanced its record to 7-1 when
they defeated York College 2-1
Tuesday afternoon.
Bloomsburg controlled the
ball from the start, but was
unable to break through York's
defense to score during the first
half.
At 13 minutes into the second
half , halfback John Millhouse
began the scoring when he
turned a 12 yard indirect
penalty kick into.a successful
goal
Minutes later , right wing
Brian Urban scored for York.
Jim Mailey then retaliated for
the Huskies by scoring from 18
yards out on a pass from Jim
Moyer;
Bloomsburg continued to
keep the ball at York's end of
the field until the last few
minutes of the game. Then the
excitement started.
With only a one goal lead, and
two minutes left to play, a foul
was called against BSC goalie
Horst Befnhard. A penalty shot
was taken by York player
Scooter Fariing., It soared past
Bernhard.. v but fortunately for
the Huskies, it didn't count, as
the referee hadn't given the
player the signal to kick.
Fariing tried again , but
Bernhard made the save, as the
Huskies chalked up another
win.
The booters will next face
Kutztown, at KSC, on Friday,

V/rBl STUDENT I.O. CARD
. by MARY WRIGHT
BSC faculty are overwhelmingly in favor of maintaining the policy of general
education requirements in the
college curriculum , though
most feel that present policies
should be examined and
modified. These findings are
revealed in a faculty, survey
recently completed by Dr. John
Baird , Chairman of the
Department of Psychology.
In evaluating the current
general education requirements
in the BSC curriculum, while 90
percent of faculty members are
in favor of some requirements,
85 percent feel that changes
within the system are desirable.
Fewer than 10 percent favor
dropping general education
requirements altogether.
In response to more specific
questions on G.E.R. content,
opinion was more divided on
what modifications were
desirable. Retention of current
requirements
to
ensure
proficiency in English was most
heavily stressed, with 74 percent voting to retain English
101, and 63 percent to retain
English 200 or 201.
In Health - Physical
Education, while 50 percent of
faculty members favor full
retention of the current
requirements and another 26
percent favor continuance of a
modified program, 45 percent
favor discarding the swimming
proficiency requirements.
While 55 percent of the faculty
favor retention of the current
Special ElectiveS Group Concept (Humanities and Arts;
Social and Behavioral Sciences;
Natural
Science
and
Mathematics) , 52 percent would
like to see the 15-12-12 semester
hours division within this
grouping modified with 58
percent favoring retention of
the requirement that at least
two
departments
be
represented within each
grouping. Opinion.was almost
evenly divided on the question
of a student's major discipline
being additional to these
e d u c at i o n
general
requirements.
Opinion was also evenly
divided on the question of
minimum number of semester
hours required for general
education r e qu i r e m e n t s
(currently 58) , and also on the
question of whether such
courses should be strictly
defined such that only a few
courses in each department
would qualify, or broadly
defined such that most courses
would qualify.
The final question concerned
the course numbering system,
with two-thirds of faculty
members favoring a standard
system based on general content and difficulty,' to be applied
to all departments.

The Kehr Union Travel

Coalition for med by CAS
The formation of the Coalition
Against Discrimination (CAD)
was the major achievement at
the Commonwealth Associa tion
of Students (CAS) legislative
conference last weekend at
Indiana University of Pennsylvania.
"It is a landmark step, " said
CAS Minority Board Chairman
Clarence Carter , of IUP, who
played a major role in the
formation of the coalition. "The
only way it will work is by a
total commitment by all four
task forces involved and total
understanding by the legislative
body as a whole."
The CAS board of minority
representatives, in an historic
compromise involving three
other task forces, formed the
coalition with one stipulation.
CAD reserved the right to be
sole reviewer of itself after a
one year probationary period,
with the power to reject the
coalition and search of an
alternative structure, or continue with the CAD in its
existing form.
The other task forces involved
included representatives of
women's, gays, and han-
Break-in

A break-in occurred at the College Store Wednesdaynight after
midnight.
According to Security Chief Richard Neuffer , "Sometime after
midnight a person or persons entered the College Store through a
window on the east side of the building. At the present time, nothing
is known to be taken, pending an inventory."
Neuffer added, "An investigation is continuing and the Pennsylvania State Police have been called In to assist."
"Anyone having any knowledge of the break-in is asked to contact the security office at 389-2617. All information will be held in
confidence," Neuffer added.
dicapped students. TheBoard of
Minority Representatives, onethird of the legislative body of
CAS under the old structure,
gave up some of its voting
power in favor of creating a
coalition which would give
"better representation to other
minorities being discriminated
against," said CAS staff intern,
Chris Leavey, of Slippery Rock
State College.
there were two arguments
against formation of the CAD.
One concern was voiced by the
Board of Minority Representatives who felt it would be
sacrificing its voting power.
cursions as the Ice Follies in
Hershey and a tour of Longwood
Garden are being offered.
Shopping tours to Reading and
Plymouth Meeting Mall are also
on the tour schedule. The
Broadway show "Beatlemania"
is another trip which may interest students.
According to Mike Sowash,
Operations Manager at the
Kehr Union, sign up for all trips
is at the Information Desk at
which time the total cost must
be paid. Those trips which are
solely sponsored by the Kehr
Union and not in conjunction
with Catawese Coach Lines will
depart from the front of Elwell
Hall. Those associated with
Catawese will leave from the
A&P parking lot. Sowash
stresses that if there is not an
ample number of BSC par
ticipants signed up for a pai
ticular trip, the . Catawese
departure point as well as the
times may vary. The minimum
number of participants is 20 for
a Catawese trip to take place.
The Kehr Union Travel
Service will also be sponsoring
a trip over Spring Break 1979
(Feb. 24 - Mar. 3) to Montego
Bay, Jamaica. The cost will be
$269.00 for eight days and seven
nights. Information on this trip
can be obtained by contacting
Frank Lorah in the Community
Activities Office.
It is very important, according to Sowash, that all
interested people sign up for a
trip as far in advance as
possible, due to the number of
seats available.
While the Board thought the
concerns of women, gays, and
handicapped were important
and worthy of representation, it
felt this representation should
not come at its expense.
Shippensburg Women's Task
force Coordinator Patti Couch,
serving as Minority Board
proxy, said, "the CAD will have
difficulty finding common
ground. Each of the four groups
have separate problems. The
only thing we have in common
now is discrimination," she
added.

A burning question
Hove you ever wondered what would happen in a town
the size of Bloomsburg if there were a major fire? More
specifically, what would happen if you were above the fourth
floor of any building? Could you get out without being burned or suffocating from the fumes?
On campus there are two buildings that come to mind
when fire is mentioned — Elwell and Columbia , residence
halls that together house over 700 women. In town there
is the hospital, and the proposed housing for the elderly.
There are monthly fire drills on campus. According to
William Haney , chairman of fire and water for the Bloomsburg town council , water pumping equipment on campus
is in good condition. The college just purchased three MSA's
which are 30 minute air tanks", for rescue efforts. In a recent
mock fire drill town fire fighters reached campus in four
and a quarter minutes.
How effective are all of these efforts in saving lives if
people on the top floors of the buildings cannot be reached.
Hypothetically, when an alarm sounds the buildings are
evacuated. But what happens when there is a real fire?
With all of the synthetic materials in buildings today, the
toxic fumes will be more danger than the flames said Haney.
What is needed , and what has been suggested to town
council is the purchase of a 100 foot aerial rescue, truck at
the cost of $230,000. Even though the truck could get people
out , more importantl y it would get rescue in to those who
could not be reached any other way. Even if funding can
be found tomorrow , the truck would not be delivered for "14
months.
According to Haney, council is now 'dragging its feet "
until they hear about a loan for the purchase of the truck.
In the past 2 years the town council has been putting $10,000
a year in an escrow account to go "toward the purchase of
fire fighting equipment. The college has given $9,600 in the
past two years "towards the purchase of fire fighting and/or
rescue equipment for high-rise buildings. The figure repre-
sents $4 per student as of September , 1976.
Frank Davis, vice president for administration , has worked
with the town council this summer. He said that althoug h
the college has contributed in the past , they need to see
"substantial progress " by the end of 1978. With this show of
progress ,' it could be in the form of a letter of intent to purchase such equipment , the Board of Trustees will be more
likely to agree to making an annual donation. At the September meeting, the Trustees questioned the progress of the
truck by the town.
Right now the necessity of purchasing the aerial rescue
truck is being questioned by the town . The town of Danville,
nine miles away , recently purchased such a truck. According to Haney, the Milton fire department said they could
help with their aerial rescue truck in case of fire. But as Haney
pointed out , the 25 minutes it would take them to got here
would mean the difference of saving lives or losing them .
The question that should be in the minds of the town
council members and the college is not whether or not
$230,000 is a lot of money, but whether the lives that could
be saved are worth it.
.
Both the town and the college will benefit from the purchase from such rescue equipment . Action needs to- be
taken by all parties concerned to insure the purchase of such
a truck. Working together they will be more likely to find
a source of funds . The sooner the purchase is made, the
sooner a fire will be a situation that can be handled effectively.
When considering the purchase of rescue equipment , the
Trustees of the college shouldn 't just be questioning the
progress of talks. The town and college shouldn 't consider
who is going to benefit more, rather they should consider
how many potentially lost lives can be saved.

Have you got the time?
By BARB HAGAN
"WHAT TIME IS IT?"
Have you ever asked that
question and received ten
different
answers
simultaneously? Or have you
ever traveled from one
classroom to another within the
same building and found extreme changes in time?
Indeed the answers you
receive depend upon the
building and the classroom
you're standing in when you ask
it.
If you're an off-campus
student just forget it. There's no
way that the time on the clock in
jyour house or apartment is
going to match up with the time
indicated on the clocks in
Bakeless, Haas, Kehr Union, or
Carver Hall. 'Each building on
the BSC campus contains within
it, clocks who do their own
thing.
I never realized that when you
travel up the hill from downtown you're entering a new time
zone. That might sound a bit
extreme but when you've been
late for as many classes as I
have you'll understand.
EVery Monday, Wednesday,
and Friday I come close to
cardiac arrest as I reach
Carver Hall and the clock reads
U. The bell begins striking 11
and I race to make it to Hartline. The funny thing is that
just as I reach the building 1
once again hear the ringing of
11. Sounds confusing but it's
true. This would lead you to the
obvious conclusion that I am on
time for class BUT as I open the
door to class I find that it has
already begun. Try explaining
that one to* me.
When I do actually make it oh
time to a class I receive strange
stares from students who seem
unfamiliar to me. Maybe that's
because I've walked in on the
earlier class. I give up.
Let me give you another
example of the demon-like
behavior of clocks on this
campus. Actually I do believe
that they ( the clocks) have
personalities all their own.
The number one building for
clocks with time deviations is
Bakeless. (Maybe there should
be an award for that highly
coveted claim to fame). These
clocks are known for their
inaccuracies - every clock in the

Wax in my ears
Technique adds to Lips
by TOBY LOYD
For all fans of contemporary
acoustic guitar music, the name
Leo Kottke should stand out
immediately. He has won
Guitar Player Magazine 's
"Best Acoustic Guitarist"
category for four years running.
Kottke's music is as original as
any being made today, and in
most cases very much more so.
Kottke himself is an absolutely spellbinding master of
technique and expression, and
his playing is so good it often
scares me. His new album,
"Burnt Lips" (he has a knack
for coming up with some wierd
titles) , like all his others, is
simply incredible, and along
with stunning instrumentals,
contains the first vocal compositions he has written in three
years.
The album begins, unpredictably enough, with a Nick
Lowe tune called "Endless
Sleep." Kottke doing a Nick
Lowe song? "Vive la 'diference!" At times Kottke's 12 -
string sounds like a funky R&B
string section. Very interesting
stuff. "Sonora's Death Row",
another first side highlight,
(Actually every song on the
album is a highlight, but space
only allows me to drool so
much) tells the story of a
cowboy that flips out on mezcal
and shoots his partner whom he
thinks has robbed him
As it turns out, he suddenly
comes out of it and realizes that
the mezcal was playing tricks

Voice gripe
TO THE EDITOR :
I am beginning to question the
credibility of the Campus Voice.
I found several misleading and
poorly quoted articles as well as
a general attitude designed to
kill the Shuttle bus Proposal.
In response to the editorial
"$$$ Hinder Bus Plan" Willard
Bradley was quoted as saying;
"Council is not guaranteed
busses from the Catawese
Line." In interviewing Bradley,
he told me that this quote is
misleading: because "The fact
is that Catawese Line has
authority over the Bloomsburg
area. " In other words,
Catawese Lines has exclusive
rights over Bloomsburg for
mass transportation systems.
These rights were given to them
by the state. Therefore, we
either pay Catawese Lines for a
shuttle bus system or appeal to
the state for a license. An appeal could take from one to
three years.
"The bus routes to be used are
not known." Bradley told me
At first glance, I thought it
was a random sampling of BSC
students, but apparently it
portrayed only the opinions and
feelings of the Campus Voice.
Why were Gert McGoff and
Kathe Sophy polled? They are
CGA representatives and had
already expressed their views
and feelings about the proposal
at the first College Council
meeting on September 25.
I would like to see the Campus
Voice publish accurate and
unprejudice articles in hopes
that it will once again regain its
credibility.

Excuse me, some of them read
the same time but it's the wrong

Not only do these mechanical
marvels indicate the wrong
time but the hands of the clocks
have exercises right in the
middle of class. There's nothing
like sitting in your 9:30 a.m.
class and looking up at the clock
to see its hands rapidly movmg

time the clock has finished its

story, and Kottke's husky voice
and lamenting slide guitar spin
it well. "The Quiet Man", a

another gem. It is a perfect
marriage of brilliant technique,
pure emotion, and simple
beauty.
Side Two opens with three
instrumentals , the most
memorable being "The Credits:

strange and dark , evoking
visions of twilight over a quiet

But gradually the

lifts the darkness, and the
countryside is flooded with light

But just as gradually as the
light melted away the darkness,
so it slowly fades, and the
haunting twilight melody
returns and then slowly drifts
quietly away. "Burnt Lips," the

Gnothi Seauton - p i.V
by DUANE LONG
On the way home from Pete
and Mary Ellen's high-brow
activity, she "harumphed" and
sighed, breaking an awkward
silence.
"You haven't said a word
since we left the concert," she
said concerned. "Is something
wrong?"
"Yeah, there's something
wrong. You're damn right there
is. There's something wrong
when you pay attention to an
artist and ignore what art's all
about. Isn't an artist supposed
to portray life?"
"Of course."
"And doesn't life, after all,
take precedence over art?"
"I suppose so."
"Then how do you justify
what you're doing, Mary Ellen?
Why have you become such an
ideological antique collector?"
"I wonder where all this was
leading," she answered angrily.
"Now listen you small-minded
freak—"
"No, God damn you! You

listen. You think of yourself as
some sort of holy virgin, don't
you? Like the man sang at the
concert tonight: "Mache dich
mein Herze rein — "Make thee
clean my heart from sin,"
right? Jesus, you're so blind!
Can't you see what you've
done? You're a psychological
whore, Mary Ellen. You've
been so hot after Bach and
Blake and Plato and Aquinas
and Locke and God only knows
who else, that they've made you
into their concubine. In a
spiritual sense, I mean. Don't
you realize that in "straining
out the gnats" of a way of life
which you don't approve of,
you've "swallowed the camels"
of alienation?"
"If I wanted to be
psychoanalyzed I'd have gone
to see a psychiatrist. And if I'd
wanted a sermon I'd have gone
to church."
"Damn it, woman, I love you!
I care about you. That's why
I'm telling you all this. Please
believe me, Mary. I wouldn't
ever do anything to hurt you. All
I ask is that you open your
heart If not to me, then to life at
least. To hell with the dead
minds you cling to—Live!"
Mary Ellen was silent, and so
was Pete when he realized that
he was only enriching the
carbon dioxide content of the air
with his talking. It was pointless
to go on, he knew. She had had
enough. He pulled the Mustang
in front of Elwell and gently
touched her shoulder as she
turned to get out, feeling her
cringe slightly.
"There's a concert up at Haas
Sunday night— Southside
Johnny and the Asbury Jukes.
Will you go with me?"
"You have some nerve to ask
me that , Peter," was all she
would say.
"Goodnight, then."
"Goodbye, Peter."
She hurriedinto the lobby, her
face a mask of fury and indignation. When Mary Ellen
walked past the young women
in the booths She felt as if each
time they laughed they were
laughing at her—as if somehow
versed in her private
humiliation. A sense of shame
took hold of her, making sleep
difficult. Her roommates had
never known her to talk in her
sleep, but sometime that night
heard her cry out in some sort of
somnambulistic triumph:
"Live!"

Tn your opinion what does a homecoming
sweetheart stand for?
Lori Abrams, JUNIOR — I
thing it doesn't stand for
anything. People just pick
either someone they are friends
with or someonewho happens to
look good in the picture.
Pedro Garcia — I think that the
purpose of the homecoming
contest, for me stands for
beauty ,
popularity
and
nostalgia.
Al Bennett, JUNIOR — It's a
joke. If the students want to use
their time, why don't they do
something more contributive!
;
Donald Davis, SOPHOMORE —
I think it stands for the most
popular girl rather than the best
looking one. Most people choose
the one they know.

Hockey team beats SU; record now 7-1
by DENISE RATH
The Bloomsburg State varsity
fieki,hockey team brought home
two wins on Tuesday as they
defeated the women of
Susquehanna University 4-0.
The BSC junior varsity squad
also earned a win with a score of
2-0. The records of the teams
now stand at 7-1 (varsity ) and 41 (JV) .
The varsity game was not one
of Bloomsburg's better efforts.
Susquehanna consistently out
hustled BSC, and the Huskies
had difficulty generating any
unified play. Though the team
was happy to come away with
the victory, the game left much
to be desired.
The contest did, however,
have some high points for the
Huskies. Early in the first half ,
freshman Joan Mahoney put
BSC ahead, scoring on a pass
from Lauren May. Before the
half ended, Bloomsburg took a
two goal lead when Robin
Maurer scored on a shot from
deep in che right corner.
The second half contained the
same sporadic play that
characterized the first period,
but the Huskies managed to add
two more goals while holding
SU scoreless.
Terry McHale slipped a shot
past the Susquehanna goalie.
Less than five minutes later,
Mahoney scored her second
goal of the afternoon , giving
Bloomsburg the 4-0 win.
The BSC junior varsity improved on the style of piety seen
in the first half . Bloomsburg
held a 1-0 lead at halftime after
Jane Reed scored the game
winner midway through the
period. Peggy Holgar capped a
strong rush by pushing the ball
into the cage for BSC's second
goal during the second half.
Gridders
f ace WC
After routing the Wilkes
College football team last
Saturday by a score of 32-6, the
Husky gridders are hungry for
another victory.
Considering that their next
opponent, the West Chester
State College Golden Rams, are
0-5, the Huskies just might have
their appetite satisfied.
Bloomsburg, now 3-2, will
face the Golden Rams Saturday
at 7:30 p.m. under the lights at
West Chester. This game will
mark the beginning of the
second half of the season,
during which the Huskies hope
to maintain a winning record.
WITH FIERCE DETERMINATION...Terry Arteriole, BSC hockey
team's high scorer , shown here in action against Wilkes
College, struggles with an opponent's stick as Kim Rice looks

by CINDY PECK
The women's tennis team

season Monday when the netters fell 7-2 to East Stroudsburg.
With only Friday 's match at
Lycoming College remaining,
the women's record stands at 52.
ESCC's Marilyn Fiori, in the
top position, defeated Lorie
Keating, 6-0, 7-5, while another
East Stroudsburg netter won a
tough match over Sue Purnell,
3-6, 7-6, 7-5.
Mary Lou Hnatin was the only
singles winner for BSC, as she
fought to a 5-7, 6-2, 6-4 victory
over Sherry Schaeffer. Sally
Marshall , of ESSC defeated
Donna Royer, 6-1, 5-7, 6-1.
In the fourth position, BSC's
Mary McHugh fell 6-3, 6-1 to
Lisa Leeds, while Lorri
Malinski also fell to an ESSC

The Huskies are a mile more
than halfway through , their
season *— one of the best in BSC
hockey history. Senior McHale
leads the scoring race with nine
goals, an average of one per
game. Offensively, the BSC
team has scored a total of 24
goals, while the defense has
allowed only nine to be scored
against them.
The Huskies face Mansfield
away today, and Millersville
away next Friday.
Booters win
The Husky soccer team advanced its record to 7-1 when
they defeated York College 2-1
Tuesday afternoon.
Bloomsburg controlled the
ball from the start, but was
unable to break through York's
defense to score during the first
half.
At 13 minutes into the second
half , halfback John Millhouse
began the scoring when he
turned a 12 yard indirect
penalty kick into.a successful
goal
Minutes later , right wing
Brian Urban scored for York.
Jim Mailey then retaliated for
the Huskies by scoring from 18
yards out on a pass from Jim
Moyer;
Bloomsburg continued to
keep the ball at York's end of
the field until the last few
minutes of the game. Then the
excitement started.
With only a one goal lead, and
two minutes left to play, a foul
was called against BSC goalie
Horst Befnhard. A penalty shot
was taken by York player
Scooter Fariing., It soared past
Bernhard.. v but fortunately for
the Huskies, it didn't count, as
the referee hadn't given the
player the signal to kick.
Fariing tried again , but
Bernhard made the save, as the
Huskies chalked up another
win.
The booters will next face
Kutztown, at KSC, on Friday,
October 21 at 1 p.m.
