THE NEW RAMBLE R , the official journal of the Johnson Society of London , has accepted
"The Political Sermons of Johnson and Swift" by Dr. Jordan
Richman , English Department of
BSC , for publication in its Jan uar y, 1971 issue.
While Jon athan Swift as Dean
of St. Patrick s Cathedral in Dublin wrote sermons as part of his
profession , Samual Johnson gnost
wro te his sermons for other ministers. The posth umous pub lication of these sermons established
his authorship . Dr . Rlchman 's
article is primarily a compari son of those sermon s by Swift
and Johnson which deal with thr ee
political topics of their time: the
execution
of Char les I . the
dan gers of bearing false witness
in the body politic , and the destru ction of the Ide al of br otherly love

Convention last week with their
own tr oubles: Professor J.Smith

Bloomsburg had just witnessed
the suspension of a student with
q uestionable use of due process.
M ost of the schools complained
of antiquated judicial systems,
lack of money, and student govern ments given the minimum of
respect and power, and the maximum of derision.
All fourteen schools had their
own troubles but no one knew

In an unprecedented action , the
Board of Presidents of PSASC

I would like to move that

PSASG dedicate April 1S-25 as
"1 Days of Disappointment" dedicated to the abolishment of
"Student Ignorance", Faculty indifference in the college community and "Administrative pacification."
It should be noted that this action does not belittle, in any manner , the actual progress that each
of our colleges has made in the
past month, however,- it does
emphasize the lack of cooperation of students — faculty — and
administration.
The red-arm bands protest the
students who satisfy themselves
with mediocracy, with knowing
half-truths and who do not recognize the stability, validity and
pow er of our government associations; against faculty who disregard their responsibilityas an
integral part of the acade mic
college community and who substitute the manufacture of molded and stero-typed college graduates in place of involved ,
dynamic, and educated graduates;

Letters to the Edito r

To Potential Committee Members:
I would like to make a reply to Gary Blasser 's letter concerning Disappointment Week .
Gary suggests that showing the
administration that we are disappointed in our school is not the
right way , but that all people
disappointed should sign up for
committees and make changes
within the machine.
I am on the CGA Ad Hoc Committee on the Joint Statement
on Student Rights and Freedoms
and am totally disillusioned.
At the recent meetings a system for amending the Joint Statement was written up while the administr ation will not even follow

JIM SACHETTI

"HEY YOU , Y' ever been to a
war?"
"NO? Well come on man, we're
goin ' to one now."
"Whaddaya mean, you don't
know what a -war is?"
"Oh , Isee, OK , lemme explain:
Ya see boy, most of the countries
on this here earth are run by old
men who spent so much time get*
ting where +hey are today that
most of them have forgotten what
it's like to live . Now every once
in a while, these here old men
get together and decide that maybe the economy 's saggin ' just a
bit or maybe they figur e that some
other group of old men is gettin'
a bit pushy. So all the old men
get together and throw a war and
invite all us young men to come
and kill the young men from some
other country. But come on boy,
I
' ve done enough talkin '. You'll
like war a lot better when we get
there ."
Madness? Perhaps, but no
m ore or less than the madness
that is war itself . Care to hear
more ? Could your mind stand

A- _. ^_

Ever since Worl d War II , Holly,
wood¦ has turned out a number of
ant i• war movies but their messages have too often been buried
beneath their plots and battle
scenes . But now, Eng land , a country that' s seen more than its
shar e of madness , has sent us
what has to be the most str ikingly effective anti-war movie ever
mad e , "Oh What a Lovely War ,"
UNREAL
"Oh What a LoveJy War "is not
war as you 've grown accustomed
to seeing it . It' s not ba tt les and
gutsy speeches and more battles
woven around some singu lar pl ot.
Instead, it' s an unrea l present ,
at Ion of a war that was painfully
real . To put it simply, war Is
pure, unadulterated madness and
thi s movie Is the most frightening portrait of that madness ever
put on film .

"Oh What a Lovely War " has
some of the best English actors
and actresses of our time in a
most unreal setting. Vanessa
Redgrave , Sir Laurence Olivier ,
Maggie Smith, Susannah York,
Dick Bogards, John Mills and a
host of others look like nameless
faces at some mad carnival.Richard Attenborough, in his debut as
a director , has taken these individual performances and put
them into something larger that
whirls before your eyes like a
merry-go-round gone mad .
THE PIER

At a seaside resort in England ,
a pier juts out into the English
Channel, Over the entrance to
the pier , a thousand lights spell
out its name: WORLD WAR ONE .
A poster on the ticket booth proclaims: GAMES

AND A FEW

The Bloomsburg State College
Concert Choir will present Handel 's dramatic oratorio JUDAS
MACCABAEUS Sunday evening
April 19 at 7:00 p.m . This is the
last of the events in the week of
activities honoring the inaugura.
tlon of the college 's new president Dr . Robert J. Nossen ,.A
professional orchestra will accompany the choir and soloists
will be Mary Decker— soprano,
Beth Powlus— mezzo-soprano,
Richard Stainislaw— tenor , Tim.
othy Hoffman— bass, and Lois
Sturglon— harpsichord.
The story concerns the trials
of the people of Israel during
the years 166-161 B.C . As the
oratorio opens, the Israelites
are lamenting the death of their
leader , Mattathias . Their pray,
ers for a new leader are answered as Judas Maccabaeus, son
of Mattathias is persuadedto lead
them in battle. This relatively
simple skirmish the Isrealites
rejoice *and celebrate . The victory is short-lived , however ,
when a messenger brings news
that the King of Syria is sending
a mighty army to destroy the
Temple . The people purge the
Temple where the invaders have
performed pagan rites and vow
to worship God alone. The Israelites then celebrate the Feast
of Lights in the recovered sanctuary, A messenger rushes in
with the news that Judas has
won the 'battle. Shortly thereaf.
ter Judas enters and orders prayers and honors for the dead . The
Senate has signed a treaty
guaranteeing the freedom and
independence of Judaea, The
oratorio ends with a paean in honor of t>eace.
JUDAS MACCABAEUS was
first performed at the Theatre
Royal in Concert Grande April 1,
1747. During Handel's lifetime
the oratorio was performed 55
times . MACCABAEUS ranks next
to MESSIAH in the popularity
of Handel's many oratorios.Some
of the famous choruses and
arias in the work are Halleluja h,
Amen!, Hail, the Conquering Hero
Comes, Sound an Alarm, Father
of Heaven , and Hail , Hail Judea
Happy Land . MACCABAEUS is
full of stiring music that retains
its power 223 years after its
first performance. Its music is
particularly appealing to young
people-and has quickly become
one of the Concert Choir 's favorite works .

York: "Why darling, I think

I saw that , I couldn 't h e l p
but think of all those "silent Ameriduns" who run around with
those obscene bumper stickers
and those flag decals (don 't get
me wrong, I think the flag is a
lovely gesture too) on their cars
and are so proud of it . Patriot*
ism comes easy to those w h o
don 't have to pay for it . Thi n k
about it.
It's New Years now, 1916. In
the pier 's ballroom, generals,
ambassadors and their wives are
dancing and sipping champagne
beneath a grotesque Scoreboard
which proclaims that 1,500,000
allied men have died during the
previous year 's fighting. Do you
suppose , just suppose, that some*
where in this country today, there
exists such a Scoreboard?
SANITY

Now just about this time, I be*
gin to wonder if there is any hope
for the world or my sanity. Then
I look and there is Vanessa Red*
grave, standing on a box and tilling a *crowd about the terrible
things taking place across the
Channel: "The sons of Europe
are being crucified upon the barbed-wire of France." A ray of
hope. Surely the crowd will realize . Surely they must have
seen that Scoreboard and the
wounded and dead. Surely they
believe her . But then someone
yells: "Pacifists is traitors."
As she is being swept away by the
crowd, I wonder: What is a tra-

itor ? Can someone who believes
in PEACE be called a traitor? Can
someone be dammed for refusing
to serve those men who danced
beneath that Scoreboard? Think
about it.
It's 1917 now. A young officer
climbs into the general's observation tower above the pier:
Officer: "This is not war sir
it is slaughter . When will it
end?"
General: "In the end, they will
have 5000 men and we will have
10,000 men . Then we win ."
Think about that.
Finally, there is one soldier
left . He is following a bright red
ribbon that stretches out from his
trench and into the mist . It leads
him to a staircase which he decends to find himself in the pier 's
ballroom. In the middle of the
room , four diplomats are seated
around a table , silently signing
documents . Now the soldier begins to run and he emerges from
the mist in a field in which his
little girl sits with her mother .
As he stands behind them , the
little girl asks: "M ommy, what
did my daddy do in the war ." He
smiles, walks away and sits down
on the grass with several other
soldiers . Then, they 're gone , and
all that's left are white crosses.
As the camera ascends into the
sky, there is only a little girl
walking among endless rows of
crosses.
That closing shot is a most unforgettable ending to an unforgettable movie. Perhaps if it
were shown every year to every
person, in every land all across
the face of the earth , then perhaps there would com e a day when
people would never think of say*
ing, "Pacifists is traitors."
Think about it.

if my liberal friend s hang me in

much needed curriculu m liberalization , a pass-fail system , limited but helpful nonetheless; and
the chance that the limitations

Dr. Nossen has ,up to now ,kept
his promise to meet with students
whenever possible and has given
hours of his time to the M&G , the
Gadfly editors , and odd and sundry students who wished to talk
with him as well as many student
and mixed audience groups on
camniis.

Also, insofar as the M&G is
concerned Dr. Nossen has let his
views be known to us, but has never commanded or directed us to

"Marooned" in Space

One way to become an expert
in a subject is to make an honest
and truly realistic motion picture
on that subj ect. It's the hard way,
but the end result can be pretty
satisfying not only to the moviemakers but to their audiences.
Such a film is "M arooned."
Five years in the making "Marooned" is now playing at the Capltoi Theatre .
Story of three astronauts stranded in space, due to a malfunction on their spacecraft, "Marooned" is also concerned with the
desperate efforts of Mission Control to effect a rescue while the
world watches.
1•M arooned" is based on the
novel by Martin Caldin , one of
America 's most distinguished
writers on aviation and aerospace. The authenticity of the
film might almost be assured if
the book itself had served as the
script.
Out of the pre-photography preparation of "Marooned** came an
unusual by-product. The members of the team making the picture became among the best informed laymen in the countr y on
the United States space program.
Associate producer Frank Capra, Jr., for instance, spent the
better part of two years working
with engineers and scientists at
Cape Kennedy, the Houston Space
Center and the design and manufacturing companies in California learning about such technical
components as design , thrust,
aerodynamics , budgets, space
equipment , weightlessness, etc.

Women 's hours have been liberalized , again on a trial basis ,
but again with the suggestion of
coming permanence.
Campus parking has come a
long, long, way.
Off campus housing has , at
least for seniors , come even further than campus parking.
Churnings and gurgles and all
sorts of sounds associated with
change can be heard in many campus nooks and crannys.
Editor s of campus publications
received remuneration for their
work ... small b u t once again,
promising.
Promise is a good word when
one discusses BSC...promise and
potential. Plenty of both here.
Of course that is a highly subjective evaluation...BSC has been
good to me. Good to me gradewise, letting-me-in-in-the-first
•place, giving me money, oppor tunity, even something of an edSt il , as much as I like BSC ,

its greenness , its sometimes
quaintness, sometimes austerity,
sometimes cleanness , I will like
it all the more if It fulfills its
promise and its potential. And
it does have a way to go.

Producer M. J.Frankovich and
director John Sturges, and their
production team also spent many
days in Florida and Texas getting
the "f eel** of the subj ect they
were so intent on making into a
dramatic film.
"M arooned** was filmed , not
only in Hollywood , but at C a p e
Kennedy and Houston . Wherever
possible , within the confines of
what was practical ,the "M arooned" team filmed at actual locations called for in the script.
While this increased the drama
of the film , it also created certain problems for ace cinematographer Daniel Fapp. Lighting
and off-camera noises became
difficulties to overcome. Getting
a camera in and out of the way
ot actual working personnel at
Cape Kennedy for instance, was
a must and was handled smoothly
by Fapp and his crew.
A lot of things can and did happen during production of a big
picture like "Marooned*' which
started shooting in mid-November, 1968, and continued to midAp ril , 1969.
Most important to Messrs.
Frankovich and Sturges was,perhaps, the exploratorv shot of

Gregory Peck stars as ch ief

three astronauts who are "M arooned " in outer space.

before them — see and hear the
real astronauts Frank Borman,
William Anders , and Jim Lovell
as they went through their duties in space, thus providing an
accurate blueprint of what they
themselves later would do before
the cameras.
Lee Grant , Nancy Kovack and
M ariette Bartley are co-starred.

The terro r and beauty of outer space back ground the drama
and tensi on of Marooned, which tolls of three U. S. "?•"onauts

To the Editor of the Maroon and
Gold:
In light of Editor in Chief
Hock' s art icle in the Forum on
Friday, March 20th , defending
Dean Hunslnger and Dean Norton
from my charges of violatin g the
Jt , Statement , I would like to direct the following questions to
Dean Hunsin ger.
1, Why was it necessar y for
Hoc k to write your defense? Can 't
you let the facts defend you , or
did you , lacking facts , feel the
need to stren gthen your defense
by clothin g It in M ike 's authority ?
2. Did you know that you apparently violated the Jt , State ment again (page 10, 11) by question ing Hock' s "approval of con*
tent " and by compromising his
Independence as editor of what' s
supposed to be a "student " publication and not an administrative
or gan (Jt , Statement , pg, 11)?
3V Did you know that Pres ,
Nossen has labelled as "uneth ic-

al" , faculty members who " use"
students and dictate letters to
them ? CThere is no evidence that
Dr . Primack or I or any other
faculty member have dictated any
letters , but Mike has stated that
the major content of his article
was a paraphrase of your remar ks.)
4, Is it true that in 1968 you
signed a petition calling for the
investigation and suspension of
faculty member s who supposedly
dictated what Lyle Slack wrote
in the Gadfly? (What they actual ,
ly told Slack was to tone down his
attacks on various administrators .
5. If my char ges against you
are false or misleadin g, why not
pr ove them so with a signed arti cle In the M&G Instead of brin ging me before Dean Hoch on a
ser ies of non-specific char ges
such as "Falsification of facts to
both students and facult y "? What
fact s?
8, Did you know that if you could
prove me false in even one par ticular , I am pre pare d to mak e
a public apology and retraction ,
and that if you could show me as
being wro ng In the majority of
cases I would withdraw from any
fur ther involvement with non»
academic student affairs?

7, If you really are following
proper procedures as Hock' s ar ticle claims , why are the Executive Council , Dean Norton , and
the Men 's Judiciar y contin uing,
apparently , to violate the Jt .
Statement , the 5th amendment ,
and the 14th amendment in the
Cand y Bar Case and in Dudley 's
case? Why do you continue to allow a Student Facult y Judiciary
to exist on which there are four
administrators in violation of the
$t . Statem ent , (pg. 20)?
8, Don't you believe, as a good
Christian , that the Candy Bar
Kid s and Dudley have been punish *
ed sufficiently for their alleged
transgressions? Aren 't $1,000
lawyer fees and the anxiety about
havin g an arrest record for a
felony for the rest of their lives
enough , without also disrupt ing
their education with double ana
triple Judicial pro ceedings on
campus and frightenin gthem with
possible suspensions ?
9, Did you know I agree with
yon on one thing at least? That
the vast > majority of students ,
faculty , and pr obably administr ators don 't care about possible
inhumanities and possible violations of school law . And that the

weeks of trouble. . .we all have a
friend who tells us, 'you don 't
have it so bad, look at that guy'
and you look at that guy , and he's
got It worse than you. . ."*"
About 150 student leaders went
to the Pennsylvania State Association of Student Governments
Convention last week with their
own troubles: Professor J.Smith
at Indiana University, after receiving one of the highest ratings
In a student evaluation or professors, had not granted tenure for
such reasons as 'moving furniture in his class room '; Michael
Kay had been fixed at West Chesp olitical activities;
ter for
Bloomsburg had just witnessed
the suspension of a student with
questionable use of due process.
Most of the schools complained
of antiquated judicial systems ,
lack of money , and student governments given the minimum of
respect and power, and the maxliuuui ui uensiun .

All fourteen schools had their
own troubles but no one knew
how bad things really were.
In an unprecedented action , the
Board of Presidents of PSASG
proposed "7 Days of Disappointment ," to last from April 18th
to April 25th. The resolution
sponsored by BSC's Jeffery Prosseda, states:
I would like to move that

PSASG dedicate April 18-25 as
"7 Days of Disappointment" dedicated to the abolishment of
•?Student Ignorance", Faculty indifference in the college community and "Administrative pacification."
It should be noted that this action does not belittle , in any manner , the actualprogress that each
of our colleges has made in the
past month , however ,- it does
emphasize the lack of cooperation of students — faculty — and
administration.
The red-arm bands protest the
students who satisfy themselves
with mediocracy, with knowing
half-truths and who do not recognize the stability, validity and
power of our government associations; against faculty who disregard their responsibility as an
integral part of the academic
college community and who substitute the manufacture of molded and stero-typed college graduates In place of involved ,
dynamic , and educated graduates;
lastly , this week will protest the
common administration policy of
keeping the students "happy " by
throwing them tid-bits of authority and responsibility in an effort to supplement the often
emaciated morale of the students, and those administrators

Letters to the Editor
*
Potential Committee Mem- graduates
. If what I hear is correct,

To
bers:
I would Uke to make a reply
to Gary Blasser's letter concerning Disappointment Week.
Gary suggests that showing the
administration that we are disappointed in our school is not the
right way , but that all people
disappointed should sign up for
committees and make changes
within the machine.
I am on the CGA Ad Hoc Committee on the Joint Statement
on Student Rights and Freedoms
and am totally disillusioned.
At the recent meetings a system for amending the Joint Statement was written up while the administration will not even follow
the already stated rights! The
Dining Room Committe e might
have been "where its happening"
but my committee is totally irrelevant to rights and academic
freedom. I am disappointed with
my committee and my school. I
am going to resign from the committee as soon as I find out who
to resign to and anyone who likes
to kias ass can fill my position.

The Bloomsburg State College
Concert Choir will present Handel's dramatic oratorio JUDAS
MACCABAEUS Sunday evening
April 19 at 7:00 p.m . This is the
last of the events in the week of
activ ities honoring the inauguration of the college 's new presi- '
dent Dr . Robert J. Nossen A
professional orchestra will accompany the choir and soloists
will be Mary Decker— soprano,
Beth Powlus— mezzo-soprano ,
Richard Stainislaw—tenor , Ti mothy Hoffman— bass, and Lois
Stur gion— harpsichord.
The story concerns the trials
of the people of Israel during
the years 166-161 B.C . As the
oratorio opens , the Israelites
are lamenting the death of their
leader , Mattathias, Their pray,
ers for a new leader are answered as Judas Maccabaeus , son
of Mattathias Is persuaded to lead
them in battle. This relatively
simple skirmish the Isrealites
rejoice and celebrate. The victory is short-lived, however ,
when a messenger brings news
that the King of Syria is sending
a mighty army to destroy the
Temple , The people purge the
Temple where the invaders have
performed pagan rites and vow
to worship God alone. The Israelites then celebrate the Feast
of Lights in the recovered sanctuary. A messenger rushes in
with the news that Judas has
won the battle. Shortly thereafter Judas enters and orders prayers and honors for the dead . The
Senate has signed a treaty
guaranteeing the freedom and
independence of Judaea. The
oratorio ends with a paean in honor of peace.
JUDAS MACCABAEUS was
first performed at the Theatre
Royal in Concert Grande April 1,
1747 , During Handel's lifetime
the oratorio was performed 55
times . MACCABAEUS ranks next
to MESSIAH in the popularity
of Handel's many oratorios .Some
of the famous choruses and
arias in the work are Hallelujah,
Amen I, Hail, the Conquering Hero
Comes, Sound an Alarm, Father
of Heaven, and Hail, Hail Judea
Happy Land. MACCABAEUS is
full of stiring music that retains
its power 223 years after its
first performance. Its music is
particularly appealing to young
people and has quickly become
one of the Concert Choir 's favorite works .

ant i-war movies but their messa ges have too often been burled
beneath their plot s and battle
scenes . But now, England , a country that' s seen mor e th an its

what has to be the most str ikingly effective anti-war movie ever
mad e , "Oh Wha t a Lovely War ."
UNREAL
"Oh What a Lovely War " is not
war as you ' ve grown accustomed
to see in g it . It' s not ba ttles and
gutsy speeches and more battles
woven aroun d some singular plot .
Instea d , it' s an unrea l pre sentat ion of a war that was pai nfully
real . To put it simply, war is
pure , unadulterated madness and
th is movie is the most frighten ing portrait of that madness ever
put on film .

•place, giving me money, oppor tunity, even something of an education.
St il , as much as I like BSC ,
its greenness, its sometimes
quaintness, sometimes austerity,
sometimes cleanness , I will like
it all the more if it fulfills its
promise and its p otential. And
it does have a way to go.

es, spent weeks at both Cape Kennedy and Houston.
Scriptwriter Mayo Simon spent
hours listening to space program
workers ' dialogue , the idiomatic
speech so peculiar to this 'group
of people. He also watched their
reactions to crisis, observed
their relationship to each other ,
and came away impressed , and
perhaps awed, by the people, from
the astronauts to the ground
crews to the wives of the personnel.
Producer M. J. Frankovich and
director John Sturges, and their
production team also spent many
days in Florida and Texas getting
the "f eel»» of the subj ect they
were so intent on making into a
dramatic film.
"M arooned" was filmed, not
only in Hollywood , but at C a p e
Kennedy and Houston. Wherever
possible, within the confines of
'what was practical , the "Marooned" team filmed at actual locations called for in the script.
While this increased the drama
of the film , it also created certain problems for ace cinematographer Daniel Fapp . Lighting
and off-camera noises became
difficulties to overcome. Getting
a camera in and out of the way
of actual working personnel at
Cape Kennedy for instance, was
a must and was handled smoothly
by Fapp and his crew.
A lot of things can and did happen during production of a big
picture like "Marooned" which
started shooting in midJJovember , 1968, and continued to midApril , 1969.
M ost important to Messrs.
Frankovich and Sturges was,perhaps, the exploratorv shot of

Gregory Peck stars as chief
of tho U. S. Manned Space Progra m and Marietta Hartley costars as the wife of one of tho
three astronauts who are "M arooned " in outer space.
Ap ol o 8, when the producer za A

director plus Hollywood astronauts Crenna , Franciscus and
Hackman were able to do what
few , if any film makers had done
before them — see and hear the
real astronauts Frank Borman,
William Anders, and Jim Lovell
as they went through their duties in space , thus providing an
accurate blueprint of what they
themselves later would do before
the cameras.

Dean Hunsinger ,
1. Why was it necessary for

you let the facts defend you , or
did you , lacking facts , feel the

the major content of his article Statement , the 5th amendment ,
was a paraphrase of your re- and the 14th amendment in the

Cinderme n Win Two Straight
Defeat Mansfie ld, Cheyney

BSC wrestling coach Russell
Houk can go on for hours talking
about the highest attributes of his
1969-70 team captain, A r n o l d
Thompson, Arnie is considered
by Houk to be one of the best
•wrestlers he has coached,
Arnold graduated from Wash,
ington High School, Washington ,
New Jersey, in 1966, I
n high
school he participated in football
and wrestling. He earned 6 varsity letters in these sports. He
also played catcher on the base*
ball team .
After talking with his coach.
Houk persuaded Thompson to
come to BSC.
In his sophomore year Arnold
posted a 7-5-1 record but did not
place in the Pennsylvania championship tournament. Last season, his junior year, he fought to
a 12-2- 1record and captured first
place in the state tourney. Healso won the 150 1b. class at the
Wilkes tournament as well as
placing 4th in the NAIA. This
year Arnold wrestled to a sterling 25-4 season, repeated in the
state's only this year at 158 and
placed third in the NAIA.
After his graduation next January, Arnold hopes to teach and
coach . He also hopes to keep
wrestling competitively but that
would depend on his job and his
ability to keep his weight down
during the off-season . His hom etown is hoping to hire him to
coach ,
Of the 57 matches he wrestled
to compile his three year record
of 44-11-2, his best match was
last year in the state finals when
after forging a 15-5 lead he pinned his opponent to win the title.
The match he best remembers
was in the finals of the 1970 PS
AC tournament . Down 4-2 , he took
his opponent down to knot the
score at 4-4. He rode for most
of the rest of the match to win
6-5,
W h e n Qu estioned on his
thoughts about the race problem ,
Art ^d commented , "Athletes at
BS^ are equal on the field ,
erorybody loves them , but off the
field this is not always so." He
says that the attitude of other students towards blacks stvould
chan ge. They should accept the m
for what they are as a person ra ther than jus t look at their skin
and pronounce ju dg ement , Ar nold thinks that If this attitude
does not change trouble
could
sprout .
A rno ld went on to say t hat all
athletes should be treated a little differently at Bloomsburg, "T
think they should be able to eat
to gether ," he said , "When you
get done pra cticin g you don 't feel
like waitin g for a meal . Ath letes
should have a bigger voice and
get involved in CGA , Alsohe said ,

Summer
Baseball

Anyone interest ed in playing
base ball this summer In an organized men's lea gue , should be
at the Catawls sa American Leg.
Ion home Sunday April 10 , 1970,
There will be team meeting and
a practi ce will be held . Anyone
who has never signed a major
league contrac t is eligible , and
aver y one will be given a f a i r
chance to play .

"Athletes travel the most and
they can pick up the school's image.*'
Arnold is a great wrestler .His
loss can't help but hurt the team .
The M&G sports staff 'would like
to congratulate him on his great
career and wish him good luck
for the future .

Women Win
Champio nship

This Saturday was the first
home meet for the *Husky Track
Team. After avlctory over Cheyney the Huskies were optimistic
for their meet against Mansfield.
Central Columbia 's track was
anything but in good shape for a
track meet. The track was the
wrong size, the cinders were ,
packed loosely and the track re.
sembles the beach after the first
couple of events were run. There
was a high wind and It was cold ,
consequently the times were poor
on Saturday.
The Huskies beat Mansfield by
taking 15 of 17 first places and
rolling up a score of 113 to 32.
The only record breaking performance of the day came from
John Ficek who broke the BSC
record in the shot put with a
throw of 46'9'\ This broke a
record by J. Bonham which had
stood since 1941. The old record
was 46>6V9 »»

Student Angler
Discusses Stockinet

Enter: Trout
by Butch Bunsick
as most of us who enjoy the
sport of fishing realize, next Saturday the 18th, is the beginning
of the trout season here in Pennsylvania . With a little bit of luck
we might have ideal opening day
conditions . That of course depends on the weather from now
until next week . Because of the
heavy rains recently, streams in
our immediate area are unusually
high but are dropping fairly fast .
Observations I have made up
north indicate that the streams
are near normal in that area .
Because initial stockings of
trout were made previous to the
rains, in all probability the high
and faster water caused many of
the hatchery bred fish to be carried downstream.This may sound
terrible to those who enjoy standing with a hundred other people
in a well-stocked hole. But to
those of us who like a little peace
and quiet this spreadin g out of
trout is perfect.
Baits which will probably take
the most fish will be fairly com mon to most of us . Worms , salmon eggs , minnows, and of course
assorted hardware such as spinners and spoons will be the ticket

Eppley's
Pharmacy

for a limit on the first day. Just
make sure the bait is kept down
and slow moving for in this time
of year the fish don 't like to move
more than they have to.
Fly fishing will produce also.
But because the water is cold and
the amount of people fishing, the
art of fly fishing will be hindered . However, as the streams
begin to thin out of anglers , then
the probability of fishing flies
will become possible. Nymphs
and wet flies of dark patterns
will be the best bet . Various
streams, however, require different patterns and it is the anglers job to choose the correct
U1 1C .

The best stre ams in the area
would be Fishing Creek , Roaring
Creek , Penns Creek and Pine
Creek . The starti ng time is 8
a.m . and the limit In streams is
8 trout over 6 Inches , and in
lakes the limit is 6 trout over
6 inches .

Arsenic has been found in
some household laundry detergents. In Lawrence, Kansas, as
much as 59,000 parts per bilr
lion of arsenic have been discovered in some laundry and presoaks. In the Lawarence sewage
system and .the Kansas River,
arsenic levels varied from 2 to
10 parts per billion. The average concentration of arsenic in
drinking water is limited by the
U. S. Public Health Service to 10
parts per billion.
One of the hazards associated
with arsenic in laundry soaps
is the possibility of contamination through residues on clothing or from contact while using
the soap product. Arsenic ' may
be absorbed into the body through
unbroken skin. The metaliscumulative, meaning that most of the
absorbed arsenic stays in the

Andrew Hudson, noted lecturer, art critic and artist, was on
the Bloomsburg State College
