N.Y. Rock ensemble
The New York Rock Ensemble,
a group noted for its ability to
combine rock and classical
music, will appear in concert at
BSC on October 8, 1971 at 8:30 in
Haas Auditorium .
The group is comprised of three,
graduates of the Juilliard School
of M usic an d one har d rock
musician. Over the last three
y ears, the Ensemble has perf ormed h un d red s of concerts
ranging from last years' Filmore
West a ppearance to t h ei r recent
Ch r i stmas concert at Carne gie
Hall. The group has just released
on Columbia Record s their
newest al bum entitled "Roll
Over ".
The sensitivity of classical
music and the hard driving
vibrations of the rock idiom

combine to create what many
critics consider to be a new
category of music.
Ralph Berton , in a review for
"Dow n Beat" writes , "The
NYRE refreshingly has virtuall y

nothi ng in common w i th an y
other rock ensemble. Don 't let
the name mislead you ; it is like
describing Ben Franklin as a
Philadelphia printer. They do
play rock'n roll , very good rock'n
roll—among o t h e r things. It is
the other things that make them
uniquely worth going miles to
hear."
The group is probably best
known for its live appearances.
The Evening Bulletin in
Philadelphia writes of their
recent concert at the l empie
University Arts Festival . "What
everybody came to h ear was very
h eav y rock , well disciplined ,
which gradually slipped into the
oboe and cello counterpoint of
genteel baroque...Of ten they

procedures by which the meeting
would be run and explained the
manner in which members of the
audience could pose questions.
Members of the audience were
asked to address their questions
to the President in rotation from
the four microphones located in
the aisles of the auditorium .
Mike Siptroth, in his opening
remarks stated , "President
Nossen is here tonight because I,
as CGA President , invited
him...so that all sides of the
current controversy can have a
chance to address the student
body at a large gathering."
President
Nossen
then
delivered a brief address in
which he stated that "this college
is not and should not be a 'closed'
operation". Nossen went on to
explain his program for decentralization of the college
organizational structure but
stated, "the one thing I cannot
delegate is the ultimate
responsibility for every phase of
The
college
operation ."
President also briefly mentioned
the checks and balances that
govern his office and spoke about
his support for all athletic

who were
not
academically qualified for the
college. Mr. Cooper said that
Russ Houk had inquired several
times last Spring as to the admission status of several
prospective athletes.
Mr. Cooper said that last
Spring he and President Nossen
met with a number of academic
deans and Mr. Houk. Cooper said
that he had accepted several
provisions which would aid in
recruiting athletes, but that he
was "not willing to sacrifice the
academic talent necessary then
to be successful in this institution."
BENSON AND PRIMACK
When asked about the renewal
of former professor Dave. Benson's contract, President Nossen
replied that the decision was
made on a departmental level.
Nossen said that the decision not
to renew was made by the
department and then passed
"down the line" to him as a
unanimous recommendation.
Nossen stated that he would "be
remiss in his responsibility if I
were to overrule those people
who are directly responsible on
the lowest level of responsibili ty." Nossen claimed that at
no time did Benson try to meet
wun mm.
Students noted that President
Nossen took a "personal interest" in the Primack case.
Nossen replied that the reason for
his involvement was beca use the
decision was made due to
financial needs and priorities.
Toward the end of the meeting,
a number of Black students
raised issues pertinent to their
particular situation at BSC .
These questions were not answered in detail due to the
general disorder which reigned
toward the end of the meeting.
Procedures for asking questions
were generally ignored and a
num ber of stu d ents became quite
vocal and abusive of the
President.
Mike Siptroth , in summing up
the meeting, stressed the point
that committees should be formed i n order to prov ide f or better
lines of communication within
the college community.

"There are more pigs in the
audience than there are up on
.that stage."
The man who got up to the
microphone in Haas tonight and
prefaced his question with that
statement said a lot more than he
ever knew. His statement was a
fitting ending to the most blatant
example of non-communication
ever presented at BSC.
Let's go back and take a look at
what Tuesday night's farce was
supposedto be. Monday morning,
a committee of six students met
with President Nossen. During
the course of the 2 and a half hour
session, the members of the
committee asked the President
very blunt, to the point, and
specific questions. In most cases,
the President replied directly to
the questions in very specific
terms. It was a productive, interesting and above all informative session. There were, at
that point, at least six students
who had heard , or at least
thought they had heard, both

wi

of his answers which were to
follow. At Monday's meeting with
the committee, the President
stated specifically that Mr. Russ
Houk threatened to resign in
September of 1970 when he instituted his new system of internal accounti ng, which Mr.
Houk took as a threat to his
authority. At Tuesday night's
meeting the President said that
when he instituted his accounting
system, he "was threatened with
resignations". Who threatened to
resign? How many threatened?

Communications br eak
"What we have here is a failure
to communicate."
I have just returned from the
open meeting of students with Dr.
Nossen. The meeting is not over.
Along with John Greeves, a
sophomore, I found that the
problem of communication
remains in a state of stagnation
at the great Bloomsburg swamp.

with rhetoric. However the

be avoided and pressing
questions which had already been
sufficiently answered to the point
where they too were employing
rhetoric.
Perhaps the two most factconcerned people were Mr.
Cooper, who managed to give
accurate facts on the admission
policy of the school concerning
ALL students, including those
with athletic ability, and an
unidentified
woman
who
questioned the women's hours
policies (she was not given a
specific answer...).
From the inability of students
and administrators to be honest,
non-abusive, and non-evasive at
the meeting, it is easy to infer
that B.S.C. has a long way to go
before becoming a "real"
college. Butting heads is not the
answer. Reasoned action is. Until
both student leaders and administrators realize this ,
Bloomsburg will remain a
glorified high school , with
glorified high school rules.

Beg to
defer

by Ron Sef beyr
Last week the Senate gave
congressional approval to the
new draft bill. With the bill came
a few new provisions which will
directly affect freshmen males
this fall, specifically the withdrawal of the college deferment.
First off , the draft has been
extended through June 30, 1973.
This point was hotly contested by
several senators , including
Democratic leader Mike Mansfield , and won out over a similar
proposal to extend the draft only
one year.
The point of controversy for
most students has been the
abolishment of the student
deferment. The president was
given the power by the new bill to
abolish student deferments and
he has stated he will use this
power to do so.
The deferment withdrawal will
concern only those students
entering college after the 1970-71
school year. This part of the bill is
not retroactive; in other words it
does not include those students
a l rea dy possess i n g stu d ent
deferments but rather only incoming freshmen. Of these freshmen, if draft notice comes during
the academic semester they may
postpone induction un til the end
/\f that

fAVM-ir *

T he onl y deferments st i ll
st and ing are those f or divin ity
students (prov ided they enter the
ministry upon graduation ) and
fo r t he only li v in g son of a person
k i lled i n m ili tar y service.
The new bill has esta blished the
uni f orm na t ional call , wh i ch
means si m p ly that men with the
same lottery number will be

called on a national basis rather

tha n the previous system of individual draft boards.
T his sy stem f avors those
p ersons com i ng from lightly
populated areas in that the lottery numbers will be called at the

Several other reforms which
are helpf ul : the ability to prevent
witnesses before the local board s
and the r ight to appear in person
before local appeal boards.

audience felt better when they
walked out of there and* said
"He 's full of shit, I'm right and I
knew it all along." Perhaps they
all had a good laugh and went
home.
But there was no communication, and that was the
tragedy of Tuesday night.

Martin Poriss tells you all this
and much, much more in HOW
TO LIVE CHEAP BUT GOOD: A
PRIMER FOR PEOPLE WITH
HIGH TASTES AND LOW INCOMES (American Heritage
Press , $6.95, $3.95 paper).
Martin Poriss, a recent Harvard graduate, has written a
comprehensive , carefully
organized , and extremely
practical book of advice for the
less-than-affluent apartmentdweller faced with searching for
a place to live, moving into it,
maintaining it, and himself , on a
basement budget. His precise,
down-to-earth advice is offered
with lively wit and illustrated
with cartoons and how-to-do-it
diagrams by Charles Hefling, Jr.
A detailed index makes it easy to
put a finger on your particular
problem.
In showing you "how to swim
rather than sink, think rather
than pay, " Mr. Poriss deals with
the following topics :

TET!

"A Whale of a book!"

That's how Walter Cronkite
describes TET !, the first big
exciting history to come out of the
Vietnam war. Allen Drury calls
TET! a "dramatically moving
account of what may be the one
major battle remembered from
Vietnam — the Tet offensive of
1968 . . . one of the hinges of
history which, in this case,
toppled a President, reversed a
policy , changed a war."
Vetera n
journalist
Don
Oberdorfer was on the scene
during the TET Offensive, when
the Communists tried to win the
war in one bold stroke with 100
simultaneous attacks. His book is
not just "another Vietnam book"
but the kind of monumental
narrative that World War II, for
example, did not yield until years
afterward. "The book unfolds the
drama in concrete detail ," says
"inPublishers ' Weekly ,
terweaving descriptions of battle
action with the developing
reactions and responses back in
the United States. Stunning
scenes com pete f or t h e rea der 's
at tention : the attack on the U.S.
Emba ssy in Saigon ; the Hue
massacre and the furious battle
for that city ; LBJ's adv isers
gathering the courage to tell their
chief that his policy was defunct."
TET will prove to be one of the
mo st i mportan t b att les i n
American history , and here f or
the first time is the whole story —
r ich i n scenes and c haracters on

both sides of the lines, full of
insight and surprise.
DON OBERDORFER
The day Don Oberdorfer first
arrived in Vietnam , in 1966, the
Buddhist crisis erupted . The
second time he went, he was
almost killed by a land mine.
During his third visit, the TET
Offensive broke out. His fourth
visit was quieter: it was part of
what became a round-the-world
journey in search of information
for his dramatic and penetrating
new book, TET ! ( Doubleday,
September 17) , a grand-scale
narrative of the action and aftermath of the historic Tet offensive.

To get the whole story, Don
Oberdorfer interviewed great
numbers of actual TET Participants — from Viet Cong
defectors to the high officials
running the war from Saigon and
Washington. Says Allen Drury:
"Don Oberdorfer brings to this
book all the skills and perception
o f a v eteran W as hi ngton
c orres pon d ent , a shrewd observer of politics and human
nature, and a concerne d and
responsible citizen. TET ! is a
very good job indeed."

Stud ents Study and Travel Ab roa d ^

A thought in the back of every
student's mind is often that of
studying in or traveling to an
exciting, glamorous place in
another corner of the world . This
thought was realized by two BSC
seniors, Christine Borowski and
Jeanne Ghezzi , during the spring
semester of '71 as they left for a
semester of study abroa d at La
Sorbonne in Paris, France.
"For me," relays Chris , "the
most rewarding experience was
to be placed in classes with
foreigners from all countries and ,
although everyone was handicapped by the language barrier
at first , we were still able to
communicate
openly
—
humanely
— with
each
other...despite our personal
backgrounds. "
Using simply their own
initiative, Chris and Jeanne left
the United States knowing only

tha t they wan ted to attain — a
diploma from the Sorbonne.
Having no prearranged place to
live, they discovered that the
Sorbonne operates a housing
program and willingly finds
families with whom students may
live.
"My luck was unbelievable,"
said Chris. "As everything fell
into place, I soon realized that my
"adopted " family — Monsieur
and Madame Francois Mouret de
Lotz. their three little girls, and
the Spanish maid , Fifi , were to
be the key to my successful
l e a r n i n g of
French
and French customs. Through
daily
conversations
this
was accomplished painlessly and
almost without effort. Living with
such an aristoc ratic family , I was
able to learn a great deal about
the culture and people themselves...their personal atti tude

"Eating meals with the family
was an unusual experience in
itself . The ever-present cheese ,
wine and brea d were always
accompanied by a novel dish. We
ate everything from escargot
(snails ) to horsemeat to a dish
which amoun ts to the thyroid
(ris-agland of a calf
veau...delicious! ) brains , etc.
The w o r s t had to be tripe
(intestines). But the food and
ta ble manners are so much a part
of the culture that one studying
the language can 't ignore them."
"As the photos show, I did and
saw many things which the ordinary tourist cannot do or see.
The Hunt was my favorite. It is
most similar to a foxhunt in the
U.S. except the horsemen track
down a stag and end the Hunt by
killing it with a dagger. The flesh
of the stag is then given to the
bloodhounds as their reward for
tracking down the animal . The
Hun t takes an entire days time
because it is so ceremonial.
"The European system of
education differs a great deal
from the traditional American
system. The Sorbonne itself is
different from any U.S. institution. No book lists are given
to students; t h e y must find ,
their study materials themselves. Civilization courses are
mass lectures and attendance is
never taken except in practical
language courses. Only one test is
given each semester — the final.
For the final a student must write
several dissertations on topics in
three general courses and then
has the option of choosing the
course in which he will compose
his long dissertation. The subjects are chosen by the
professors .
"This part of the system is
impersonal and req uires much
effort by the studen ts. For a
native , the university is practically free. Foreigners , of
course, pay more."
Because courses did not begin
until February, Chris and Jeanne
spent their first three weeks
traveling to Switzerland , the
Italian cities of Rome , Florence,
Pisa , Genoa and Turin , then on to
Monte-Carlo and the French
Riviera .
"Since we were traveling by
car with a Cana dian friend , we
wore able to stop anywhere and
see the countryside first hand. "
Traveling in Wes tern Europe can
also be done inexpensively by use
of a Eurail-pass which allows
foreigners to travel by train , first
class , anywhere for a limited
time — about 21 days. "
"This is safer than hitch-hiking
and not costly . The biggest

expense is lodging. Jeanne and I
eliminated that problem by
joining the Inte rnationa l Youth
Hostel Organization which
allowed, us to stay in any
European Hostels for roughly
$1.50 per night. In Rome , the
hostel was the same place where
the 1960 summer Olympics were
held. Florence turned out to be a
converted villa and the one in
Genoa a seaside castle. Some
were depressing — no heat or hot
water; others were great , such as
the modern ones in Lyon and
Marseille , France."

"No matter what kind of hostel
it was, the people were all the
same — friendly and interesting;
always interested in their fellow
travelers."
"Every student should create
an opportunity for himself to do
some European traveling. The
experiences will "certainly add to
his understanding of the actions
and attitudes of other nations and
he may form a different opinion
of the U.S. when he returns. Our
trip was worth the effort — a
truly unforgettable educational
experience."

Ken Klock is undoubtedly one
of the finer linebackers in Husky
history . Last year Ken recovered
more enemy fumbles than any
other man 'on the team. He was
selected as top linebacker for allconference last year.
A good atti tude is necessary for
a winning team and Ken believes
we have it. The team, a young one
with many new starters, listens
to the coaches and learns. Ken
believes.
He expects the team to improve
as the season goes on. Ken has
respect for Coach Boler as
defensive line coach. He attributes his abilitv as a
linebacker to the persistant
dedication that Coach Boler puts
into the game.
"We've got good talent", says
Ken "All we have to do is work at
it , and our defense will come
along. " He believes we've proved
ourselves both in the Wilkes
scrimmage and in our 28 - 6
victory over Scranton U.
Ken 's major is accounting. His
ambition after he graduates is to
teach and coach football. He'll
make his home in Pennsylvania
or New Jersey .

A doorbell rang, and when the

in the doorway , in flames.
Ablaze. On fire . Guests cried out

"Somebod y do something!" The

Philadel phia 's D.A. Arlin
Specter called for government to
" act now to emancipate our
country from the tyrany of drug
slavery . " In reviewing the
current social scene in this
country , D.A. Specter said:
"Our country is divided as it
has never been since the Civil
War . The American Dream has
failed to encompass almost onethird of our nation .
"Meanwhile , we have seen a
new form of slavery arise , one
with no color barrier , no set area ,
no set time. Narcotics Addiction
Is Slavery : 1971 Style. It chains
both the body and mind. It knows
no limitations. "
The D.A. went on to consider
four fronts on which the drug
attack must begin : 1) Increased
penalties for" drug pushers ; 2)
inJury
special
Grand
vestigation ; 3) drug education ;
4 ) expanded prevention and
rehabilitation.
"It is unfortunate that as a
nation we've not committed
sufficient resources to put drug

sellers out of business and in jail
where they belong. Instead , we
see them operating on street
corners and even in our schools.
Recent studies also proved that
narcotic s addiction was the
critical factor in pushing hardcore criminals back to their
crime life style."
In effect . Specter would like a

salvageable addict. We should
open all roads for assistance and
rehabilitation . However , for the
pushers, he feels a long jail term
would be best.
His strongest arguments come
from the ever-increasing number
of drug-related deaths. In Phila .
for example , last year there were
186 drug-related deaths — a large
increase over the 7 deaths in 1962.
Other cities are worse.

Educa tio n to day
America, with an increasing
ratio of its high school graduates
receiving higher education, will
spend a record amount of money
for this area . They have also
released data that indicates
enrollment in public and private
educational institutions will
increase for the twenty-seventh
straight year.
With higher enrollments the
federal governments grants to
higher education will also rise.
This fiscal year grants are expected to be $11.4 billion, a large
gain from 1965 when grants
totaled $3.4 billion.
In the coming school year the
number of students, teachers,
and administrators combined
will exceed 63 million , or more
than 30 percent of the population .
The office of education predicted
that 25 percent of this year's high
school graduates will earn a
bachelor 's degree in college.

students to receive this amount is
greatly reduced.
"Need" is the difference
between educational costs and
calculated expected family
contribution using the income tax
information required with the
application. Hence awards to
state college students working on
a much smaller budget than
students of private institutions!
are easily reduced or eliminated.,
Legislators considered
eliminating aid to state college
students completely since their
fees are already matched by
direct support of state schools
from Harrisburg. The proposed
bill would have required that
before giving a scholarship, the
first $1,000 of a student's need
must be met by a Guaranty Loan
at 7 percent interest with 10 years
to repay upon graduation. Such
legislation would eliminate
scholarships to state schools
whose tuition and fees are less
than $1,000.
Although the state is in a fiscal
crisis, it is the plight of the
private schools that has retained
the scholarship program in its
present form this year. "Private
schools are the backbone of
higher education in Pennsylvania ," said Mr. Sweitzer.
Rising costs combined with the
competition from modern statesupported schools have left many
well-established private schools
hard-pressed to fill their
enrollment quotas. "To allow
private schools to go under would
just put the burden on the state,
so we weren't really worried
about the funding this year,"
confides Sweitzer.
As for the future, it's almost
certain the program will be
revised beyond recognition. A pet
plan of several legislators would
combine future aid in a workloan-grant relationship much like
federal "packaging" that relies
heavily on t he Financial Aid
officer at each institution.
Such a plan is easily
manipulated since the state is
already involved in the loan
business ($10 million year) and
provides a great deal of student
employment funds to its own
institutions.
Students with problems or
questions should contact their
Financial Aid officer. As in the
past, renewal applications for
next year will be sent to previous
recipients . The deadline is
usually in April.

Hall Council
elections held

Elections were held last
Thursday in each of the women's
residence halls in order to choose
officers for the respective Hall
Council. The offices voted on
were president, vice-president,
secretary-treasurer , social
chairman and representative to
C.G.A.
Elections were held between
9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., but
voting was not impressive. Interest in hall council seems to be
going downhill, as is interest in
AWS (Association of Women of
Students). This is shown not only
by sparse participation in voting
but also by lack of interest in
running. The AWS Election
Committee is chaired by Sue
Sprague, who said , "For all the
interest shown , a primary
election was hardly necessary in
half of the dorms. The students
just don 't seem to want to get
involved or even to take the
trouble to vote ."
AWS also chose its representative for Homecoming Queen,
