College Council gives Gadfl y $100;
new constitutions discussed
College Council recommended
allocation of $100 to the Gadfly to
aid its continued publication . The
motion to allocate money to the
underground paper carried with
20 yes votes, 6 no votes, and 1
a bsention Nov. 22. All College
Council allocations are subject to
approval by Dr. Nossen.
The Gadfly is a political journa l
at BSC which assumes no official
relations with the college. Mike
Carroll , a student, is editor.
CG A Constitution
College Council moved into
informal debate to discuss the
CGA constitution . Four alternatives to be considered were
outlined by Rich Scott , cochairman of the Constitutiona l
Revision Committee. One
possible plan is a Student
Congress which would involve *
mass meetings of the student
body to discuss issues, and
present them to the College
Senate. The Senate under this
proposal
would , assume
responsibility over all student
a ffairs.
Another suggestion included
making College Council into a
budget coinmittee. All budgets
must now pass through this body.
Other student related affairs
would be handled by the Senate
or appropriate college offices.
The formation of a student
government was also mentioned.
This would entail removing the
Student Affairs Committee from
the Senate and return its
responsibilities to College
Council. There are 6 faculty and 6
students presently serving on the
Student Affairs Committee. This
concept is one of total student
gov ernment and would reduce
Senate powers.
Also discussed was the
possibility of maintaining College
Council with appropriate changes
made in the constitution to more
clearly define their role in institutional government.
Registration
On a motion by Bob Blair ,
College Council requested that
the Columbia County 'Commissioners schedule at lea st two
days for the traveling registrar to
register voters on campus during
the upcoming registration period .
A total pf 378 students registered
ins the la st period at the local
courthouse.
Allocations for the Nov . 22
meeting totaled $1639. The International Committee received
$560 to sponsor twenty-eight BSC
students in Belgium , The
Simulated Democratic National
Convention Committee received
$500 to supplement their budget.
The Student Volunteerism
Committee of College Council
will attend a conference in
Chicago and requested $479.
Appointments were made to
the Senate subcommittees by
nominations from the floor. Mary
Jo Spinosa and Sharon Guida will
serve on the Public Relations

Part of the studen t delegation recently admitted to the Board of
Trustees meet ing stood for lack of seatin g space.
For the first time in recent
years , a delegation of BSC
students and representatives of
the student press were admitted
to a meeting of the BSC Board of
Trustees . During the November
19th meeting, Mr. Edgar Fenstemacher , a member of the
Board , presented to the Trustees
a copy of the petition containing
2000 student signatures which
had been presented to Governor
Shapp during his recent v isit
here.
The student petition voiced
dissatisfaction with President
Nossen 's administration of the
college. William Booth , Board
President , inq uired as to whether
or not the petition copies were
certified. Fenstemacher replied
that they were not. The Board
moved to accept the petition and
Mr. Booth asked that the lack of
certification be noted in the
Board minutes.

The Bour d also appro ved the

Lay M y
Burden
Down
"La y My Burden Down " is a
film telling the story of a con temporary black tenant farmer
in the South. The film will be
shown on Monday evening,
December 6 at 6:45 p.m. in
Kuster Auditorium .
This pictorial essay documents
the economic and educational
plight of the black tenant farmers
of the southern United States
whose average earnings are less
than $1,000 per year. In spite of
hard work in the field s, t h e tenant
farmer can only provide his
family with a meager existence
and is constantly in debt to the
white land-owner. His children
cannot escape , b ecau se t h e
schools for them are so
inadequate. His only hope is the
recently obtained right to vote.
The Houston Chronicle described
the film as \..u starkly realistic
look id u serious socinl problem'
viewed with compassion and
honesty."
The film is being shown as part
of the course Contemporary
Issues in United States History.
Students and faculty are

Resident advisors of girl 's
dorms were informed by Dr.
JerroJd Griffis , V. P. for Student
Lif e, that there exists a
possibility , under present conditions , that they will have a
roommate in January. This is
part of the housing policy for
January , 1972 established by Dr.
Griffis.
In January, there will be 130
women desiring residence, which
includes summer returnees, and
transfers. Thirty of these will be
living in a housing unit , leased by
Dr. Hug hes, on Main and Center
Streets . Conservative estimates
are that 40 girls for various
rea sons will be leaving the dorm.
The Housing Office is contacting
faculty to see if they will house
incoming students , but the
response has been slow.
Dr. Griffis stated that the main
concern of his office is to inconvenience the least amount of
students , as possible. This policy
will allow for juggling of rooms,
and roommates among upperclassmen, so that tripling will
occur primarily among freshmen , if necessary at all.
Finally, Dr. Griffis stated that
no real concrete assignments can
be made until the second
semester, so this policy is subject
to change , if present conditions
and estimates vary between now
and January.

A wrench in the works
by jim sachetti
Back in the cartoon watching
days of my childhood, I used to be
impressed by the Rube Goldberg
type devices which cartoon bad
guys ( Sylvester the Cat , Wily
Coyote ) employed in their never
ending efforts to capture food
(TVeetie Pie, Road Run ner). I
was always fascinated yet a little
afraid of the intricate ^workings of
those seemingly absurd combinations of tea pots and ironing
boa rds , bowling balls and
boulders * that almost always
succeeded in capturing the prey .
I've long since given up cartoon
watching

politics for instance, yet the
strange and often unwieldy
systems I see there are no less
amazing and often more
frightening. Take the system for
nominating presidential candidates.
Take a state and fill it up with
greedy and power hungry' local
politicos. In front of it put several
presidential candidates and
"non-candidates " and behind
each of them put several million
dollars. Insert severa l hundred
whispered promises in each
candidates ' mouth and surround
each candidate with voluminous
stacks of high-sounding press
releases for popular consumption . Put the whole mess
under a ta ble in any large
American city , cover the ta ble
with speeches and hooplah ,
surround the whole thing with
police barriers and an aura of
democracy and you 're all set to

turn , turn again, and again , and
crank out several smiling candidates for the office of United

as the results might be, it works
every time.
Next year is a presidential
election year and the politicians
are already hard at work

by the time next summer rolls

The thing that marks "Billy
Jack , " soon to play at the Capitol
Theatre, is its honesty and in
tegrit y . At preview after
prev iew , in city after city, the
fil m , starring Tom Laughlin and
Dolores Taylor , has been the
subject of an incredible response
to the complete and utter honesty
of its story and presentation.
This quality of integrity and
honesty was no accident , but a
design by all concerned with
making "Billy Jack , " both
behind and before the camera .
For it was the conviction of the
creators of the film that it would
"work " best through dedication
to truth.
When time came to cast the
film the producers sought for and
found newcomers capable of
bringing a special fresh quality
to the screen. The performers
were discovered in all kinds of
places : in drama schools, in the
towns selected as locations , and
ofte n just walking down the street
at the right moment. These new
faces again add to the complete
reality and truth which mark all
of "Billy Jack ."

"Evening Star " Staff Write r
When he announced his hardline presidential candidacy last
week , Sen. Henry M. Jackson , DWash,, said twice that "only a
tiny, tiny minority " of American
yout h would bolt the party if he
were nominated.
No so, say the organizers of the
first major political youth rally of
the curren t sea son. The overwhelmi ng ma jority of stud ent
ucti v lstB are pr ogressive , t hey
say, with specific ideas about
which wuy the country shoul d go,
so the choice of Jackson , who is
headed in another direction ,
would cause "n wholesale
defection " of the new student
vote from the Democratic party .
This is according to Duane
Draper , 24-year-old chairman of
the Emergency Conference lor

( continutd on past seven)
selected lor proper parts and the
special qualities of Mr. Laughlin
as Billy Jack , the half-Indian ,
former Green Beret , and Miss
Taylor as Jean , the anti-violence
director of the school , have been
particularly highly praised by
those v iewing "Billy Jack" at the
many special showings.
The songs that are sung and the
special hilarious episodes which
have created such outstanding
audience
reaction
are
memorable because they are the
creations of the performers
themselves. Each actor or actress sings his or her own com position and the comedy episodes
^
are enacted
by The Committee,
(he improvisational group which
created the satirical scenes of the
film on a on-the-spot , off-the-cu ff
basis.
"Billy Jack" was filmed in its
entirety on location in Arizona
iind New Mexico. The screen-
play, by Frank and Teresa
Christina ,
is
an
antiestablishment story of a young
Indian and an idealistic teacher
struggling to maintain a
Freedom School on an Indian
reservation , against the opposition of the whole township.
There are many highlights in
"Billy Jack ," but two scenes
stand out in particular , for each
in its own way underlines the kind
of training and understanding
and sensitivity which had to be at
work to assure the validity
audiences have noted.
One scene is undoubtedly the
karate sequence. In this
memorable portion of the film ,
Mr. Laughlin as Billy Jack is
challenged and surrounded by a
group of town toughs . It is a grim
moment, but through the art of
"hapkido ," a little-known but
highly effective form of karate
perfected in Korea , Billy does
battle in a fashion which is as
successful as it is artful.
Here again the almost
choreographed series of leaps,
kicks, turns and blows is com-
pletely real , for Mr. Laughlin
learned "hapkido " from Mr. Bon
Soo Han , a karate master and
holder of the top "hapkido "
degree. Mr. Han , in twenty years
of intensive trainin g has
mastered some 3,200 indiv idual
moves. During the sh ooting of the
film , Mr. Han pa instakingly
trained Laughlin so that the truth
of the explosive karate episode is
unmistakable.
In this Madison Avenue age,
the makers of "Billy Jack" seem
to have come upon a brand new
method for winning audience
favor - simple truth.
—That 's what the press relea se
says. It seems to repeat itself on ,
this truth thing, a mighty big
claim , one that can only be
judged right or wrong by seeing
the film. At the very least , "Billy
Jack " can teach us something
about press releases — and
THEIR relationship with truth.

To the Editor :
The prospect of clean water
ahead should be the concern of us
all. If the water pollution bill
unanimously passed by the
Senate last week (86-0) remains
in more or less its present form ,
there may be hope that by 1985
the country 's deteriora ted
waterways will once again be fit
for human use. Senator Muskie of
Maine, the bill's sponsor , concedes that the date fixed for a
complete end to pollution is a
policy target rather than an
enforceable deadline, but even
this will be totally unrealizeable
if the administration succeeds in
its obvious effort to pressure the
House into gutting the Muskie
bill.
The Muskie bill is in serious
danger in the House of
Representatives as a result of
industrial and administrative
pressures. It is going to take
formidable counterpressures , to
assure a fair hearing in the House
for a bill which is, a brave and
hopeful advance in the area of
ecological preservation.
Make your voice heard. Write a
letter
to
the

the bill be reported out of committee intact and 2) that it be
supported and passed by the
House.

pace.Although Doc's -villians tend
to be typical '30's OrientalGermanic stereotypes, Doc and
his men employ "mercy bullets"
which merely stun their victims,
and only occasionally does Doc

wonders if Superman didn 't rent

Whatever Doc's literary value ,
he is part of a particularly entertainin g pop culture, and an
adequate example of 1930's pop

OUR pop culture mentality .
Reading Doc may show you what

HOW I SEE IT
by bob Oliver
The current basketball team at
BSC has a definite asset that will
help them win games — its coach.
Sure the players on the court put
the points on the board , but the
coach must work with ,teach, and
motivate his team to put their
best effort forward every game.
Coach Charles Chronister is
doing the job. How can I tell so
early in the season? Just by
watching the team. John Willis ,
the 6'8" soph has come along
tremendously since I first saw
him early this fall. He has more
confidence than ever , and will do
a good job. This is a result of hard
work on his part as well as good
coaching. *
Chronister has been a great
influence on Guard Art Luptowski who is looking better each
week . Forward Howard Johnson
has also come along, and is
showing the offensive moves and
tough defense that will help win
some games for the Huskies. His
frontcourt partner Den Mealy
can get the "hot" hand , as can
guard Paul Kuhn, who is coming
off an ankle injury .
Coach Chronister will not win
games by himself , but the team
(including the coach) will win a
bundle this year. Look for a good
year.
SWIMMING
The swimming team is
shooting for it's seventh straight
winning season this year as it
embarks on a fourteen meet
schedule. They open Wednesday
versus Temple University , but
the results didn 't get to us due to
our early "press" time.
The swimming schedule this
year includes nine Pennsylvania
Conference opponents and five
non-conference contests, will pit
powerhouses such as Monmouth,
West Chester, and Clarion , as
well as Temple, against Eli
M c L a u g h l i n 's Huskies.
McLaughlin has had his charges
working out several hours daily
since early October.
There's no question about it ,
competition in the Pa. conference, alon g with that of our
non-conference
opponents
becomes stronger each year,"
observed McLaughlin. "More
stress is being applied at both the
high school and college level,
which is resulting in better
competition everywhere."
Despite their tough schedule,
the Huskies managed to compile
a record of 10-5 last season,
finishing third in the Pa. Conference. "We were particularly
proud of our third place finish in
the PC meet last year. We were
fortunate enough to edge out East
Stroudsburg , a team that
defeated us in d»al competition ,"
McLaughlin stated.
One of the big reasons for the
success of the BSC swimmers is
Dave Gibas, Bloomsburg's first
Ail-American swimmer. The
junior freestyler from West
M iffli n , Pa., also received AilAmerican honors in high school
competition. Gibas, who was
named NAIA 50 yd. freestyle
champion, will perform in the 50
and 100 yd. events and anchor
either the 400 yd. medley or
freestyle relay teams.
Returning with Gibas are
lettermen Jack Feyer, Bob Herb,
Bob Jones, Ken Narsewicz, Jon
Stoner, and Doug Yocum . Coach
McLaughlin will count on these
veterans to lead the remainder of
the squad in several events Four
sophomores and five freshmen
are also competing for positions
on the team.
In the diving department ,
Coach McLaughlin feels he has
the best prospects he has had in a
number of years. Steve Coleman
A four game schedule was
played Wednesday, November 10
in the women 's gymnasium.
Teams 3 and 8 played to a 13-4
final with team 3 winning. The

battle. The fina l score was 9-7 in
favor of team 4. Game three
featured teams 7 and 10. Team 7
edged out team 10 by a score of
12-9. The final game of that night
saw teams 18 and 20 in action .
Team 20 pulled out a win by a 2018 final. Tuesday November 16
tean\s one and five battled to a 6-3
ending with team 5 victorious.
In the most remarkable scoring
game this season, team 4 rolled
over team 2 by a score of 48-4.
That same night team 6 overcame team 9 by a score of 29-7.
Wednesday November 17 saw
teams 12 and 15 on the court with
team 12 winning 10-3. Also that
night team 3 edged out team 1 by
a final score of 8-6. The next set of

About 4 ,000 v eterans received
more tha n 60,000 hours of tutorial
help in connection with their G. I.
Bill educational studies , VA
reported today.
VA officials noted that to be
eligible for this
benefi t
(established by the Veterans
Education and Training Act of
1970 ) , the vetera n must be
enrolled under the G.I. Bill above
the high school level on a half
time or more basis.
If the veteran needs tutoring to
pass a required course, VA
allows up to $50 monthly for a
maximum of nine months to pay
for it.
These tutorial fees are in addition to the regular monthly
education check the veteran
receives, and are not chargeable
to his basic entitlement, officials
pointed out .
VA urged veterans interested
in tutorial assistance or
education benefits to, contact
their nearest VA office, or local
veterans service organization
representatives.

new constitutions discussed
College Council recommended
allocation of $100 to the Gadfly to
aid its continued publication . The
motion to allocate money to the
underground paper carried with
20 yes votes, 6 no votes, and 1
a bsention Nov. 22. All College
Council allocations are subject to
approval by Dr. Nossen.
The Gadfly is a political journa l
at BSC which assumes no official
relations with the college. Mike
Carroll , a student, is editor.
CG A Constitution
College Council moved into
informal debate to discuss the
CGA constitution . Four alternatives to be considered were
outlined by Rich Scott , cochairman of the Constitutiona l
Revision Committee. One
possible plan is a Student
Congress which would involve *
mass meetings of the student
body to discuss issues, and
present them to the College
Senate. The Senate under this
proposal
would , assume
responsibility over all student
a ffairs.
Another suggestion included
making College Council into a
budget coinmittee. All budgets
must now pass through this body.
Other student related affairs
would be handled by the Senate
or appropriate college offices.
The formation of a student
government was also mentioned.
This would entail removing the
Student Affairs Committee from
the Senate and return its
responsibilities to College
Council. There are 6 faculty and 6
students presently serving on the
Student Affairs Committee. This
concept is one of total student
gov ernment and would reduce
Senate powers.
Also discussed was the
possibility of maintaining College
Council with appropriate changes
made in the constitution to more
clearly define their role in institutional government.
Registration
On a motion by Bob Blair ,
College Council requested that
the Columbia County 'Commissioners schedule at lea st two
days for the traveling registrar to
register voters on campus during
the upcoming registration period .
A total pf 378 students registered
ins the la st period at the local
courthouse.
Allocations for the Nov . 22
meeting totaled $1639. The International Committee received
$560 to sponsor twenty-eight BSC
students in Belgium , The
Simulated Democratic National
Convention Committee received
$500 to supplement their budget.
The Student Volunteerism
Committee of College Council
will attend a conference in
Chicago and requested $479.
Appointments were made to
the Senate subcommittees by
nominations from the floor. Mary

Part of the studen t delegation recently admitted to the Board of
Trustees meet ing stood for lack of seatin g space.
For the first time in recent
years , a delegation of BSC
students and representatives of
the student press were admitted
to a meeting of the BSC Board of
Trustees . During the November
19th meeting, Mr. Edgar Fenstemacher , a member of the
Board , presented to the Trustees
a copy of the petition containing
2000 student signatures which
had been presented to Governor
Shapp during his recent v isit
here.
The student petition voiced
dissatisfaction with President
Nossen 's administration of the
college. William Booth , Board
President , inq uired as to whether
or not the petition copies were
certified. Fenstemacher replied
that they were not. The Board
moved to accept the petition and
Mr. Booth asked that the lack of
certification be noted in the
Board minutes.
in oiner ucuuu , me uuam
discussed a motion that stude nts
be req ui red to pay a $50 downpnyment in Ma y f or re sidence
ha l l room s for t he f ollow i ng F all
semester. Accordin g to the
motion , t he down pa y ment would
on ly be refunded if a studen t
could not use the room for
reasons of health or militar y
service. Aft er discussion , the
motion wa s ta bled for furthe r
considerati on by the Office of
Student Life.
The Bour d also appro ved the
overdue 197 1-72 college budget of
$10.9 million . The budget was lat e
i n bei ng p resen ted due to the
state 's fiscal pro blems. The
Budg et will now be sent to
llarriabur g for review.
A motion approving the use of
college grounds as a staging area
for military units in ca se of a
"national emergency " passed
the Board.
Lay M y
Burden
Down
"La y My Burden Down " is a
film telling the story of a con temporary black tenant farmer
in the South. The film will be
shown on Monday evening,
December 6 at 6:45 p.m. in
Kuster Auditorium .
This pictorial essay documents
the economic and educational
plight of the black tenant farmers
of the southern United States
whose average earnings are less
than $1,000 per year. In spite of
hard work in the field s, t h e tenant
farmer can only provide his
family with a meager existence
and is constantly in debt to the
white land-owner. His children
cannot escape , b ecau se t h e
schools for them are so
inadequate. His only hope is the
recently obtained right to vote.
The Houston Chronicle described
the film as \..u starkly realistic
look id u serious socinl problem'
viewed with compassion and
honesty."
The film is being shown as part
of the course Contemporary
Issues in United States History.
Students and faculty are
welcome to attend,
Resident advisors of girl 's
dorms were informed by Dr.
JerroJd Griffis , V. P. for Student
Lif e, that there exists a
possibility , under present conditions , that they will have a
roommate in January. This is
part of the housing policy for
January , 1972 established by Dr.
Griffis.
In January, there will be 130
women desiring residence, which
includes summer returnees, and
transfers. Thirty of these will be
living in a housing unit , leased by
Dr. Hug hes, on Main and Center
Streets . Conservative estimates
are that 40 girls for various
rea sons will be leaving the dorm.
The Housing Office is contacting
faculty to see if they will house
incoming students , but the
response has been slow.
Dr. Griffis stated that the main
concern of his office is to inconvenience the least amount of
students , as possible. This policy
will allow for juggling of rooms,
and roommates among upperclassmen, so that tripling will
occur primarily among freshmen , if necessary at all.
Finally, Dr. Griffis stated that
no real concrete assignments can
be made until the second
semester, so this policy is subject
to change , if present conditions
and estimates vary between now
and January.

A wrench in the works
by jim sachetti
Back in the cartoon watching
days of my childhood, I used to be
impressed by the Rube Goldberg
type devices which cartoon bad
guys ( Sylvester the Cat , Wily
Coyote ) employed in their never
ending efforts to capture food
(TVeetie Pie, Road Run ner). I
was always fascinated yet a little
afraid of the intricate ^workings of
those seemingly absurd combinations of tea pots and ironing
boa rds , bowling balls and
boulders * that almost always
succeeded in capturing the prey .
I've long since given up cartoon
watching
for
more
"sophisticated"
pasttimes ,
politics for instance, yet the
strange and often unwieldy
systems I see there are no less
amazing and often more
frightening. Take the system for
nominating presidential candidates.
Take a state and fill it up with
greedy and power hungry' local
politicos. In front of it put several
presidential candidates and
"non-candidates " and behind
each of them put several million
dollars. Insert severa l hundred
whispered promises in each
candidates ' mouth and surround
each candidate with voluminous
stacks of high-sounding press
releases for popular consumption . Put the whole mess
under a ta ble in any large
American city , cover the ta ble
with speeches and hooplah ,
surround the whole thing with
police barriers and an aura of
democracy and you 're all set to
goFla sh a picture of 1600 Pennsylvan ia Avenue on a blank wall
and watch this amazing device
promise, lie , backslap, twist ,
turn , turn again, and again , and
crank out several smiling candidates for the office of United
States President. Unbelievable
as it may sound , and frightening
as the results might be, it works
every time.
Next year is a presidential
election year and the politicians
are already hard at work
polishing and greasing their time
honored and tested machine. But
by the time next summer rolls
around, the machine may be due
for a trip to the repair shop, or
with a little luck , the scrap heap.
A monkey wrench, in the form of
the people of the United States , is
preparing to throw itself into the
works.
This weekend in Chicago
( scene of one of the machine 's
latest operations > an Emergency
Conference for New Voters is
meetin g. This Conference is
bringing together the newly
enfranchised youn g voters, as
well as alrea dy formed minor ity
and women 's caucases.
Those in atte ndance at the
Conference , organized by a
committee of 100 student bod y
presidents from across the
nation , will discuss methods for
getting inside the nominatin g
machine. Workshops on comvoter
organizing ,
munity
delegation
registration , the
process and a number of other
topics will be held . A number of
nationally prominent spea kers ,
including the Reverend Jesse
Jack son , hea d of the Southern
Christian Leadership Conference,
and New York Congresswoman
Bela Abzug. will address the
expected 1500 delegates.
Even the most elaborate
Goldberg device can 't work with
a monkey wrench in the works.
The wrench is being forged in
Chicago this weekend .

Billy J ack
The thing that marks "Billy
Jack , " soon to play at the Capitol
Theatre, is its honesty and in
tegrit y . At preview after
prev iew , in city after city, the
fil m , starring Tom Laughlin and
Dolores Taylor , has been the
subject of an incredible response
to the complete and utter honesty
of its story and presentation.
This quality of integrity and
honesty was no accident , but a
design by all concerned with
making "Billy Jack , " both
behind and before the camera .
For it was the conviction of the
creators of the film that it would
"work " best through dedication
to truth.
When time came to cast the
film the producers sought for and
found newcomers capable of
bringing a special fresh quality
to the screen. The performers
were discovered in all kinds of
places : in drama schools, in the
towns selected as locations , and
ofte n just walking down the street
at the right moment. These new
faces again add to the complete
reality and truth which mark all
of "Billy Jack ."

Editor 's Note : The following is
a reprint of an article which
appeared in the Chicago Evening
Star . It is part of the literature
bein g distributed by the
Km er u ency Conferenc e
organizers.
By MARY McGRORY
"Evening Star " Staff Write r
When he announced his hardline presidential candidacy last
week , Sen. Henry M. Jackson , DWash,, said twice that "only a
tiny, tiny minority " of American
yout h would bolt the party if he
were nominated.
No so, say the organizers of the
first major political youth rally of
the curren t sea son. The overwhelmi ng ma jority of stud ent
ucti v lstB are pr ogressive , t hey
say, with specific ideas about
which wuy the country shoul d go,
so the choice of Jackson , who is
headed in another direction ,
would cause "n wholesale
defection " of the new student
vote from the Democratic party .
This is according to Duane
Draper , 24-year-old chairman of
the Emergency Conference lor
Now Voters , which will be held at
Chicago 's Loyola Uni versity
December 3-5. Me is former
student body head of the
Universi ty of Oklahoma and onetime youth organizer for shortterm populi st presidentia l
ca Jidato Sen. Fred Harris. The
Student Government Association
is sponsoring the meeting, which
more tha n 1, 500 student leaders,
representing one million students
in 2,300 schools, are ex pecte d to
attend.
I '<>( us Changes
The conference was originally
planned as yet another new voter
registration rally . But the defea t
of Sen. Harold Hughes of Iowa as
temporary credentials chairman
in last month ' s regulars-vs. reformers
clash
in
the
Democratic National Committee
changed the focus.
The organizers decided that
young people had to elect likeminded delegates to the con vention . "We don 't wan t them
sending young party hacks to fill
their youth quotas ," says
Draper 's pretty wife Cleta , who is
assisting in the mobilization of
youn g strength to impress old
politicians.
( continutd on past seven)
selected lor proper parts and the
special qualities of Mr. Laughlin
as Billy Jack , the half-Indian ,
former Green Beret , and Miss
Taylor as Jean , the anti-violence
director of the school , have been
particularly highly praised by
those v iewing "Billy Jack" at the
many special showings.
The songs that are sung and the
special hilarious episodes which
have created such outstanding
audience
reaction
are
memorable because they are the
creations of the performers
themselves. Each actor or actress sings his or her own com position and the comedy episodes
^
are enacted
by The Committee,
(he improvisational group which
created the satirical scenes of the
film on a on-the-spot , off-the-cu ff
basis.
"Billy Jack" was filmed in its
entirety on location in Arizona
iind New Mexico. The screen-
play, by Frank and Teresa
Christina ,
is
an
antiestablishment story of a young
Indian and an idealistic teacher
struggling to maintain a
Freedom School on an Indian
reservation , against the opposition of the whole township.
There are many highlights in
"Billy Jack ," but two scenes
stand out in particular , for each
in its own way underlines the kind
of training and understanding
and sensitivity which had to be at
work to assure the validity
audiences have noted.
One scene is undoubtedly the
karate sequence. In this
memorable portion of the film ,
Mr. Laughlin as Billy Jack is
challenged and surrounded by a
group of town toughs . It is a grim
moment, but through the art of
"hapkido ," a little-known but
highly effective form of karate
perfected in Korea , Billy does
battle in a fashion which is as
successful as it is artful.
Here again the almost
choreographed series of leaps,
kicks, turns and blows is com-
pletely real , for Mr. Laughlin
learned "hapkido " from Mr. Bon
Soo Han , a karate master and
holder of the top "hapkido "
degree. Mr. Han , in twenty years
of intensive trainin g has
mastered some 3,200 indiv idual
moves. During the sh ooting of the
film , Mr. Han pa instakingly
trained Laughlin so that the truth
of the explosive karate episode is
unmistakable.
In this Madison Avenue age,
the makers of "Billy Jack" seem
to have come upon a brand new
method for winning audience
favor - simple truth.
—That 's what the press relea se
says. It seems to repeat itself on ,
this truth thing, a mighty big
claim , one that can only be
judged right or wrong by seeing
the film. At the very least , "Billy
Jack " can teach us something
about press releases — and
THEIR relationship with truth.

To the Editor :
The prospect of clean water
ahead should be the concern of us
all. If the water pollution bill
unanimously passed by the
Senate last week (86-0) remains
in more or less its present form ,
there may be hope that by 1985
the country 's deteriora ted
waterways will once again be fit
for human use. Senator Muskie of
Maine, the bill's sponsor , concedes that the date fixed for a
complete end to pollution is a
policy target rather than an
enforceable deadline, but even
this will be totally unrealizeable
if the administration succeeds in
its obvious effort to pressure the
House into gutting the Muskie
bill.
The Muskie bill is in serious
danger in the House of
Representatives as a result of
industrial and administrative
pressures. It is going to take

Comments on Proposed

One of the reasons that has
been given for revision of the
academic calendar at Bloomsburg State College is that
studentsare now taking too many
courses and in order to concentrate on some , t hey must

Yes, well, sceptics have rea son
to scoff. Doc Savage is fair game
for scoffers. It's hard to take a
guy who escapes death traps by
un tying the ropes which bind him
with his toes seriously. And if you
think that sentence was awful,
don 't forget tha t these adventures were written in an age
where saying "he said" was
unforgiveable, i which makes for
a lot of priceless sentences, like
"Doc Savage can 't be beat , Monk

the time the volcano was erupting
backwards and it bothered Doc
ertough for him to make his exotic
trilling sound which comes from
everywhere yet nowhere, a sound
he makes when he gets excited,
disturbed , or just plain horny, the
time when one of his five aides

Lots of things are up for Doc. 65
adventures published anew so

copies in print, a new Princeton
radio serial devoted to his adventures...it's enough to make
one wonder. And Doc Savage
does prov ide a certain sense of
wonder ,
a
breathtaking
( ridiculous) breakneck ( snappy )
pace.Although Doc's -villians tend
to be typical '30's OrientalGermanic stereotypes, Doc and
his men employ "mercy bullets"
which merely stun their victims,
and only occasionally does Doc
rip off an arm, leg, or dangling
participle or two. Doc is a nioe

with women because they might
be endangered by the underworld

only is Doc a nice guy, he's also

comic strip superhero who
originated in the late 30's and who

who merely stole Doc's brain and

wonders if Superman didn 't rent

Whatever Doc's literary value ,
he is part of a particularly entertainin g pop culture, and an
adequate example of 1930's pop
culture mentality . The fact that
he 's making a big evil-tromping
comeback says something about
OUR pop culture mentality .
Reading Doc may show you what
exactly that something is, or is
not . And besides, can even the

HOW I SEE IT
by bob Oliver
The current basketball team at
BSC has a definite asset that will
help them win games — its coach.
Sure the players on the court put
the points on the board , but the
coach must work with ,teach, and
motivate his team to put their
best effort forward every game.
Coach Charles Chronister is
doing the job. How can I tell so
early in the season? Just by
watching the team. John Willis ,
the 6'8" soph has come along
tremendously since I first saw
him early this fall. He has more
confidence than ever , and will do
a good job. This is a result of hard
work on his part as well as good
coaching. *
Chronister has been a great
influence on Guard Art Luptowski who is looking better each
week . Forward Howard Johnson
has also come along, and is
showing the offensive moves and
tough defense that will help win
some games for the Huskies. His
frontcourt partner Den Mealy
can get the "hot" hand , as can
guard Paul Kuhn, who is coming
off an ankle injury .
Coach Chronister will not win
games by himself , but the team
(including the coach) will win a
bundle this year. Look for a good
year.
SWIMMING
The swimming team is
shooting for it's seventh straight
winning season this year as it
embarks on a fourteen meet
schedule. They open Wednesday
versus Temple University , but
the results didn 't get to us due to
our early "press" time.
The swimming schedule this
year includes nine Pennsylvania
Conference opponents and five
non-conference contests, will pit
powerhouses such as Monmouth,
West Chester, and Clarion , as
well as Temple, against Eli
M c L a u g h l i n 's Huskies.
McLaughlin has had his charges
working out several hours daily
since early October.
There's no question about it ,
competition in the Pa. conference, alon g with that of our
non-conference
opponents
becomes stronger each year,"
observed McLaughlin. "More
stress is being applied at both the
high school and college level,
which is resulting in better
competition everywhere."
Despite their tough schedule,
the Huskies managed to compile
a record of 10-5 last season,
finishing third in the Pa. Conference. "We were particularly
proud of our third place finish in
the PC meet last year. We were
fortunate enough to edge out East
Stroudsburg , a team that
defeated us in d»al competition ,"
McLaughlin stated.
One of the big reasons for the
success of the BSC swimmers is
Dave Gibas, Bloomsburg's first
Ail-American swimmer. The
junior freestyler from West
M iffli n , Pa., also received AilAmerican honors in high school
competition. Gibas, who was
named NAIA 50 yd. freestyle
champion, will perform in the 50
and 100 yd. events and anchor
either the 400 yd. medley or
freestyle relay teams.
Returning with Gibas are
lettermen Jack Feyer, Bob Herb,
Bob Jones, Ken Narsewicz, Jon
Stoner, and Doug Yocum . Coach
McLaughlin will count on these
veterans to lead the remainder of
the squad in several events Four
sophomores and five freshmen
are also competing for positions
on the team.

Teams 3 and 8 played to a 13-4

teams 4 and 5. This game proved
to be the most exciting one of the
night resulting in an overtime
battle. The fina l score was 9-7 in
favor of team 4. Game three
featured teams 7 and 10. Team 7
edged out team 10 by a score of
12-9. The final game of that night
saw teams 18 and 20 in action .
Team 20 pulled out a win by a 2018 final. Tuesday November 16
tean\s one and five battled to a 6-3
ending with team 5 victorious.
In the most remarkable scoring
game this season, team 4 rolled
over team 2 by a score of 48-4.
That same night team 6 overcame team 9 by a score of 29-7.
Wednesday November 17 saw
teams 12 and 15 on the court with
team 12 winning 10-3. Also that
night team 3 edged out team 1 by
a final score of 8-6. The next set of
games are scheduled for

more tha n 60,000 hours of tutorial
help in connection with their G. I.
Bill educational studies , VA
reported today.
VA officials noted that to be
eligible for this

These tutorial fees are in addition to the regular monthly
education check the veteran
receives, and are not chargeable
to his basic entitlement, officials
pointed out .
