Lynn Roccograndi and Gail
Bower co-star in the Bloomsburg
Player 's production of "Picnic."
The Pulitzer Prize winner for
drama has been performed the past
two evenings in Carver Auditorium
before members of the college community and area theater-goers.

Playing his second role and first
lead, Roccograndi appears as Hal
Carter, a handsome wanderer and
college drop-out, iviiss Bower por-

trays Madge Owens, a young girl
who forsakes a comfortable future
with a wealthy college man and
chooses the boastful vagabond.
Supporting Players
Jon Ackley is cast as Madge 's unsuccessful suitor. Sharon Bergeron
and Karla Klinoff appear respectively as Madge's mother , and
younger sister. Rosemary Sidney

steady, are played by Sharon Repp
^
and Larry Remley.
Ruth Campbell and Carole Murphy appear as two school teachers ,
and Bob Wynne plays a young brat
appropri ately called Bomber.
Special Meaning
"Picnic" has special meaning for
young people, and there are also
moments of recognition for young
and older teachers alike. It is indeed true to American life and
young adults.
"It is hoped by the Players that
"Picnic " will p rovide an evening
of drama which will give the audience a richer insigh t into their own
lives," says Mr. Robert Richey, director, and Mr. Michael McHale,
manager.

"Education has become a yardstick for measuring a person's potential. The more education assimilated, the further one may be expected to go in life and the more
rewarding the future should be."
This advice comes from Sergeant
Bob Shearer, BSC' s Air Force Recruiting Representative.
Qualified Men
The Air Force needs good qual ified young men and women, but
not at the expense of quitting college to enlist. "Stay in school and
graduate ," says Shearer , "and then
consider a place on the Aerospace
Team."
The Air Force wants more education for its members in order to
make them more valuable , and
the Air Force has provided means
for fu rthering their education. Air
Force personnel have a unique opportunity to gain college credits, to
complete their studies to gain a degree, or even to go on to a Master's
or Doctor's degree in their area.
Information
For more information on Aerospace opportunities , after graduation, contact Sergeant Shearer
in Husky Lounge every Tuesday
from 10:30 to 12:30 or telephone

youth. Beginning with the now fa*
mous Charleston and Blackbottom
of the Twenties, we then went into
the thirties and forties with the j itterbug — a dance j ust as wild, but
with more bodily contact, if you
wish to call it that. We have yet to
match that style of throwing
around dance partners. This evolved more or less into the Rock 'n'
Roll of the Fifties with its turns,
throws, push-offs, and twists. And
speaking of twists, that is what
came next in the interim between
the R 'n' R and what has come to
be known as anything from the
Frug to the Jerk. The Twist became so popular that the elders
caught on to it almost as fast as
the young people as was evidenced
with the many "Peppermint Lounges," not only in the United States,
but also in Europe since it was
adopted by the Jet Set.
No Known Cate gory
The most recent dancers are almost impossible to categorize under
any one name. There are just too
many variations. The only thing
which ties them together is the fact
that they all involve physical activity in some form. In fact, there is
so much physical activity in the
new one that there is a complete
lack of people around the dancers.
If one gets too close, he is almost
guaranteed an aching shin bone, at
the very least. It will be interesting
to see j ust what kind of device the
diabolical minds of new dance
crazes dream up next. Who knows?
Maybe we will do a complete reversal and j ust stand still. Or has that
been done already?

..Highlights..
By Ray Buckno

Beyond a doubt , to quote the granddad wrestling coach of the East , Herbert J acks, (ex-coach of LHSC) "This
is the best wrestling team in Lock Haven's history. " As for this columnist , I
agree with Coach Herbert J acks and
go on to say that LH SC is one of the
best teams on the Eastern Coast , with
Lock Haven goes Leh igh, Navy and
Penn State. But at the same t4me the
students of Bloomsburg have nothing
to be ashamed of, for the difference in
score was 20 points, but a few bouts
were close in score , and it is in individual bouts where one sees how
good a team is man for man , and we
are also very good.
The score could have been a bit
closer but due to what this columnist
considers poor officiating the match
turned into a run-away. Now I am not
belly-aching or alibiing f o r the stu^ dents of BSC or for my own part , but
the fact that the official, Dave Bates ,
was a bit hasty with some calls and at
other times a bit tardy, would be an
understatement.
J ust to state that the official wasn 't
the best doesn't resolve the complete
problem or bring to light the entir e
picture.
.One must stop and think of the factors involved. Number one, this was a
crucial match between two smal l college power-houses and naturall y every
call that came up was important in deciding the outcome. That is any cal l
which can go either way or is close to
the 50-50 point , naturall y the home
team will get the nod from the official.
This is because hometown fans and
newscasters are present. It is less pressure for an official to have 200 visiting
fans "riding his . back" than to have
3000 hometown fans screamin g and
hollering at him.
The second factor which ent ers into
the picture is that of hum an error.
That is, all officials are liable to error
and at one time or another , most officials do commit err ors, but keep them
to a minimum, or else they are considered by coaches and fans to be a
bad risk to officiate at any match of
importance , or for that fact , of any
match of non-importan ce.
With these two factors taken into
consideration this columnist could have
and would have over looked some calls
that were made and would have attributed them to human error. But anyone
who witnessed the match and that goes
for LHSC students as well as BSC students felt that many calls were way past
the errorin g margin allowed for an official. Also the inconsistency of the official , to make exception for tak e downs
outside the circle when made by LH
and not to give points for the same
when Bloom would do so seemed pretty
disgustin g.
As the old saying goes "if it 's good
for the goose, it's good for th e gander. "
This should perta in to both tea ms in all
calls ; and th e one officiatin g should always keep this though t in mind. For it
is here with consistency and incon sistency by officials where many meets

Dear Mr . Simons,
As co-chairm en of Bloomsburg State
College's Pep Committee we would
like to congratulate you and your grappiers on their fine performance Saturday night. We have also been asked to
apologize for some of our students behavior at the match. Many of them
have met with serious consequence s
from our administration because of
their un-ca lled for act ions.
We are safe in saying that , speaking
for the majority of our student body,
we have never seen a better wrestlin g
team's performance , especially against
a National Champ ionship team. We
didn 't real ty expect to come out on top
but we did expect to give a better
showing then we did for this great

only state , "Wai t till nex t year! "
Again we sincerely hope you accept
our apologies and make it known to

It has been brought to my attention, through various sources, tha t
the conduct used by the students of
BSC at Lock Haven was something
that we are not proud of. These
few students have all but ruined
the integrity of Bloomsburg. Sure
these individuals have been punished by the administration, but no
amount of punishment will remove
the scar that has been placed on
the college, on' the wrestling team
and on Coach Houk. It is a shame
that so few people have ruined it
for so many.
The rivalry between our schools
is a wonderful and intangible oband games — whatever they be — are
won or lost.
The only question this columnist has
is: Why, with a conference as great as
ours (PSCAC) don't we have the top
officials of the East officiating? This is
especiall y important when there is a
meet as crucial as the one this past
weekend. Let us all stop and think ,
coaches, athletic directors , athletic
councils , fans, and last but not least
officials, and see if we can all come up
with a better showing with officials and
better officiating.
To end , only congratulations and respect go out to Coach Gray Simon s and
his matmen of Lock Haven State , also
best of luck .

j ect which cannot be destroyed just
because of a few people acting up.
Last year, the letter sent to BSC
from a few Lock Haven students
caused most ill feeling. It is realized that this letter did not reflect
the complete attitude of the students of Lock Haven. And now I
hope that these few students of
BSC will not cause an unfavorable
attitude toward all at BSC. Our rivalry is fierce and it should stay
this way, and it should not turn
into a war.
We of the Maroon and Gold
sports staff wish to congratu late
the wrestling team of Lock Haven
and to wish them the best of luck
in the upcoming tournaments.
