NelsonRockefeller and
the Environment—
review by Dave Watt
Nelson Rockefeller recently
published his fourth book, "Our
Environment CAN Be Saved ."
The book , whic h had prepublication notices stating that
the governor has some sane
suggestions for the survival of the
environmen t , is not worth the
time take n to read it. Many other
book s on ecology and ecocatastrophe that some say will
occur soon ar e mu ch more informat ve , the best of which is
"The Environmental
Handbook ," published for the First
Annual Environmental Teach-in ,
last April 22nd .
Governor R ockefeller , under
the pretense of writing an approach
to
environmental
balance, has succeeded only in
producing a book in wh ich he t ells
of his grea t accomplishments,
and how much HE has done for
the environment. It is not an t
exaggeration to say that 90 per

VOL. IL

cent of the pages have sentences
starting with "I ha ve done..." or
"I signed into law... " or other
such similar claptrap. The book
reads more like a political
pamphlet for the governor's reelection than like a sane approach to ecological balance.
Even in the opening pages, the
author tells of all the accomplishments of his fa ther and
himself , their contributions to
national parks , their work toward
conserva tion . However , there is
no mention of where th e money
came from for their donations .

Apparently, the fact that the
family fortune comes from exploitation and industrial financing hangs as a spectre of truth
over the grave of Mother Natur e,
and Mr. Rockefeller would rather
we didn 't think of that side of his

work.

The book rots. That' s all tha t
can be said for it , and it is not
wort h the investment of money or
time.

Dear Editor :

John Lennon —
Plastic Ono Band
by Steve Bergamo — Better
Known as Sometimes John
Setting : The bell toils, the wind
blows, and you are at a funeral —
John Is mother. Bong! Bong !
Bong!
You look at the* album cover to
make sure that you are listening
to Lennon's new album. And you
ask yourself, "What do I expect
from John Lenn on?" Yoko
screaming, electronic music ,
free-for-all nonsense. Yeah! But
you sayj "What do I hear?"
Lennon at his best form , meaning
heavy,
gutsy,
explosive,
desperate, artistic music without
the put-ons. The music hits you in
the face and says here I am and
dig me if you can. Wow!!! It is
really great to have a sincere,
satisfying album, knowing there
are no pu t-ons.
The front cover has John and
Yoko sitting beneath a big tree
gazing at the sun. It reminds me
of a puzzle picture , very misty.
My mother picked up the album
and, looking at the back cover,
said "Whois this cute little boy?'1
Of course it was John when he

Over-all Personalities of the
Album :
1) John is sincere, no put-ons.
2) Religions from Christianity

Lennon.
3) The album is substantial. It
is art.
4) Politically Lennon sings,
"We sat and talked of Revolution,
and how the hell we could get
things done."
5) Lennon is still a pathfinder.
He is more Dylan than Dylan if
you think about "Highway 61."
6) John must be reading Marx

Waller To Columbia-A Move In The Right Direct ion

It loomed ahead, that 9-story monstrosity called Columbia Hall. They
finally made it. From Waller Hall to Columbia Hall in one semester.
They're really moving up in the world.
»

Some of those moving were saved the up-hill walk by BSC men who
used themselves and at times their cars to move the Wallerpeople.

Girls Say Thanks

For many though , the muve was a dozen trips
through the door in Waller with an armloa d of
clothes, books , and stuffed toys. Then ud the hill

On behalf of the girls from
Columbia Hall , I would like to
express our tha nks and sincere
appreciation to the men of
Bloomsburg who assisted the
girls in our arduou s stru ggle to
reloca t e ourselv es in our
beau tiful new resi dence hall . We
had many volun teers des pite t he

laborious job of str uggling with
awkward furnitu re and Iransfering burdensome boxes a

to Columbia . I noticed that
Columbian women assumed an
active advisory role , rendering
encouragement and endearment

to our weary soldiers . Most of our
men were inca pacitated for

and aching muscle s from th eir,

no effort was too difficult . Our

work on the Pilot a s soon as he or
she is selected. This preliminary
work will include the selection of
a printer and general con sideration of the format.
This will eliminate work
needed through the summer ,
months usually necessary for the
completion of the handbook for
the fall semester of the college
year.

Dr. Sterling will be doing additional work in his field next

will visit weather stations similar

The fraternity system at BSC is
not large, but it is a good system.
We need men of individuality and
high ideal to continue our
progress and carry on the idea of
brotherhood. It is difficult to
explain what being in a fraternity
and the word brotherhood mean ,
but the rewards of being a
member of such a group are
fulfulling to all who join.
Unfortunately, prestige " is
sometimes a principle aspect of
fraternities. But there is more to
a fraternity than Greek letters on
a jacket. More important is the
sense of belonging, working
together toward a goal, being
part of a whole, helping and being
helped , and also helping and
yourself ,
your
bettering
college.
This
fraternity and your
special deep-rooted sense is
commonly referred to as
Brotherhood and Fellowship concern for the self and others.
The pledging period is probably
the most meaningful and most
memorable of a man 's experiences in a social fraternity. It
is the time when lasting fr iendships and the true meaning of
"fraternity " are formed.
Because the pledge 's personality has been developedoyer
a number of years, there is no
reason to expect that his basic
personality can or should be
changed during the relatively
brief period of pledging. In other
words, the brotherhood should ;
respect each member for his own '
individual qualities. A stereotyped fraternity often weakens
itself by forcing men into a mold
. — seeking to destroy the unique
qualities of eac h member.
Although some undesi rable
habits can be corrected during
pledging, personalities should be
the major consideration during
rush when undesirables can be
eliminated without any embarrassment to the fra ternity or
the individual.
The goal of a pledge progra m
should be to give the pledges the
information or knowledge needed
for initiation and to create the
attitude which is considered
necessary for membership in the
chapter. From the outset, each
pledge should be told exactly
what will be expected of him !
Instead of foolish or impossible or
physical tasks that often mark
the last part of pledging , a list
should be set down of important
things the pledge class must
