"The Union is used to a great

This was said by Mr. Mulka ,
Director of Student Activities

describing student participation
in Union activities.
A recen t addition to the decor
of the Union was the installment.

The booths were set up to add a
sense of intimacy to the area . "
At this time there are no plans
for more booths but with the
arrival of the new ta bles, the
Union furnishings will be
complete. Tabl es to seat two

Another piece of equipment in

The Case of fh e
Mys terio us Class Dues
Once upon a time there was a friendl y college perched on a hill,
far above a river winding. This college had an ordinary
arrangement , as far as colleges go. Students came , s pent one year
each as a freshman , sophomore , junior and senior , attended
graduation and went their merry way to attempt to seek employment.
But somewhere between the end of their senior year and their
graduation , there was a very stran ge disappearance which occurred regularly each year. Every graduating senior was required
to turn in their class dues in the amou nt of six dollars . They were
told that if they didn 't pay this fee, they would not receive their free
yearbook (each graduating senior was entitled to one) and they
would not receive their diploma. This was all very stran ge to the
people in the Yearbook office , because they had never been notified
of any list of recaltricent seniors. It was especially stran ge since
they received their entire budget from the Community Activities
Fee of $50 which was paid by every stude nt each spring.
Another strange factor in the Case of the Mysterious Class Dues
was that each senior had to pay $5 diploma fee in the spring . So the
Dues weren 't being used to pay for diplomas. And each senior also
had to pay a cap and gown fee, which meant it wasn't being used for
that either. Very mysterious!
The question arose : just exactly what was the money being used
for? Approximatel y 800 graduating seniors multiplied by six
dollars was quite a tidy sum. The search went on.
Attempted questio nings of involved administrato rs (both student
and facult y) resulted in some mumb led comments of "Senior Class
Gift ," and "Senior Dinner Dance. " Was this the Senior Dinner
Dance that was so poorly attended that for several years it had to
be called off? What was this mysterious "Gift"? Who had chosen
this gift, what was it, where was it now? The Pergola that stands
classicly behind Montour Hall has peeling paint and lack of use to
attest to the fact that it was the Gift of the Class of 1916. The Stone
lions (Leo and Leona ) which once stood at the end of a stone walk
next to Carver have long since gone into stora ge — much to the
chagrin of the Class of 1912. The miniatu re of the future BSC when
all hopes and drea ms are fulfilled still stands in Carver 's main
lobby as tribute to the Class of ' 64.But what of all the intervenin g
years? No pictures were taken of checks being handed out to
deservin g organizations , no press releases were sent by the Senior
Class officers. The money seemed to have passed into oblivion.
Tune in for more on the CASE OF THE MYSTERIOUS CLASS
DUES!

The concert was structured to

The M&G Sports staff is kept
busy covering all .games and
athletic events throughout the
school year, along with their
photographers. Most people do
notice those snapping shots at
basketball games and wrestling
matches but few know anything
about those who fill the sports
pages with such exciting news.
Sports Editor Bill Sipler from
Sharon Hill, Pa., heads the
department since September,
1973. A part-time sophomore, he
supplements his education by
working at Carrol's. Bill
transferred to BSC from
LaSalle College in January 1973
and is working toward a double
major in Political Science and
English and a certificate in
Journalism. An avid hockey
nut , he also enjoys hunting,
music and playing his guitar.
Bill writes songs and poetry and
has been recorded on London
Records.
From Stroudsburg comes
Freshman Kim McNally,
assistant Sports Editor. A
Secondary Ed major in Communications, she worked as a
proofreader for the Pocono
Record one summer. Experienced in sports writing Kim
served as Sports Editor in her
senior year of high school. Her
interests include horseback
riding and the piano, as well as
collecting antique junk.- As a
tour guide for a two hundred
year old Pennsylvania Dutch
farm in the Stroudsburg area,
Kim learned to milk a cow and
spin flax into yarn, dye it and
weave some original designs.
The sports writing staff
consists of two freshmen who
both enjoy athletics. Dale
Myers from East Berlin, Pa. is
an English major with a concentration in Journalism.
A sports reporter for his high
school newspaper and a
member of the basketball ,
football and baseball teams, he
brings much athletic knowledge
with him. Working with migrant
orchard pickers during the
summer, Dale has picked ,
canned and packed fruits. He
also did landscaping work parttime.
Craig Winters is a pre-med
major from Holmes, who has a
craving for journalism and
might someday switch his
major. His father, a chemist,
influenced his choice in pre-med
but Craig thinks he has more of
a talent in writing. An avid
athlete who enjoys fishing,
bowling and intramural soccer,
Craig was a member of his high
school's cross country and track
teams.

By Bill Sipl er
An attempt to bring Mansfield
out of their tenancious zone
defense early in the second half
resulted in a slow down offense
as the Huskies of BSC downed
the Mounties 57-47 Saturday
night.
The Huskies, led by John
Willis who scored 28 of the
teams 57 points, forced Mansfield to come out of their zone
that had given BSC some
problems late in the first half.
The freeze BSC put on the ball
lasted almost three minutes as
they controlled the ball with
crisp passing on the outside.
Mansfield was forced out of the
middle and the Huskies
proceeded to put the game
away. "They didn't want to play
us man to man and we didn't
want to play them zone," Coach
Chronister stated after the
game. "We had the lead so we
could dictate the way the game
was playod." The Huskies must
have dictated fairly well as they
overcame the stubborn Mountie
zone when they spread it out.
On the other end of the ceurt,
the Huskies continued strongly
on defense as they held Mansfield's top scorer, Walt Winch,
to just six points, all of which
came in the first half. Mansfield
had only two players in double
figures. Stanford Mahan had 13
and Leon Haskins had 12.
Games Action
>
BSC opened the game by
scoring ten points to four by the
Mounties. However the largest
lead of the half was only an
eight point breach as the
Mounties hung on and tied and
then took the lead briefly
around the six minute mark.
The Huskies were able to seek
out a lead of five points by the
end of the half as Mansfield's
shooting took a vacation. The
Huskies lead at half time was a
slim margin at 32-27.
In the second half , using a
slow deliberate offense coupled
with Mansfield mistakes, the
Huskies managed to get their
game rolling. The largest lead,
16 points, was only achieved
toward the end of the game but
the Huskies had built it up
throughout the second half.
Net Notes
Coach Chronister felt "that
it' s the mark of a coop team to
be able to come out and be able
to change their pattern of offensive." He also felt that the
officiating was on the poor side.
Some of the calls were
questioned by the fans as the
game slowed down.
The Huskies travel to East
Stroudsburg tonight to take on
the Warriors. J.V. action starts
at 6:00 p.m. The J.V.'s are still
undefeated. The next home
game is February 20 against
Cheyney.

Wres lting Notes
By Bill Sip ler
The Grapplers of BSC upped
their record to 15-3 with their
win over Lock Haven last week
in what might be termed a
sweet victory. The Huskies
suffered what Coach Sanders
felt was their worst beating by
any team. The fact that the
Huskies downed Lock Haven in
their own gym made the win so
much better.
But making the fact sweeter
was that Dave Brandt returned
to action following a knee injury
early in the year . Brandt
wrestled fairly well , even
through he is not completely up
to par. Coach Sanders is unsure
if Dave will be able to wrestle at
the conference meet but he has
been getting excellent wrestling
from Bill Kaercher , so Brandt
will have to improve himself in
good style.
Bernie Biga is still out with
bruised ribs. The Husky
Heavyweight might have
cartilege damage in the rib
cage.
Coach Sanders feels that it
has been a great year so far and
he hopes it will continue in the
same vein. The team has put up
with a heavy burden in that they
practice daily including Sundays, but the outcome has been
worth it. The Huskies are
ranked forth in the nation in
College Division II and seventh
over all in the east.

While Marvin and Kozicki

Oneota 's O'Donnell in 1000-yard

third in the 200 yard Butterfly.
Other Husky finishers were

Huskie fans have some more
reason to be happy as Dave

helped him pull away but Thran
shows promise for the future.
Swim Notes
The Huskie's next home meet
is Friday night against West
Chester at 7:00 at the Nelson
Pool. The meet against Oneota
included two one meter events,
one required and one optional
dives. Each diver had to do five
dives during the required event
and had his choice of five dives
he could do in the optional
event.

BSC's women's swim squad
took home their first loss of the
'74 season last Saturday but as
they left Lycoming College's
. .pool under a 53-42 decision, it
didn't seem as though the
Huskies had lost.
One of the main problems for
the team was what one of the
swimmers termed Lycoming's
"crude pool ." Being under
regulation length and width , the
pool was too small for 200 and 50
yd. events, (160 and 40 yards
were swum instead) and an
extra lap had to be taken for the
100 yd. matches. Also, due to the
four-lane width of the water,
only two swimmers from each
team could be entered in each
event.
The Huskies' Tina deVries
pulled in the only individual
swimming wins of the day for
Bloom, as backed by Mary Ruth
Boyd and Sue Nickum
res p ect i vel y , she took both
backstroke events. Tying the
pool record with a 25.3 in the 40

"The Union is used to a great
extent , but personally, I'd like
more students to take advantage of the services we
offer. "
This was said by Mr. Mulka ,
Director of Student Activities
and the College Union , in
describing student participation
in Union activities.
A recen t addition to the decor
of the Union was the installment.
of booths in the snack bar area .
The booths were set up to add a
sense of intimacy to the area . "
At this time there are no plans
for more booths but with the
arrival of the new ta bles, the
Union furnishings will be
complete. Tabl es to seat two
and
four
people
will
predominate and several eightplac e tables will also be
ava ilable.
Another piece of equipment in
the Union is the new GE Console
Phonograph located in the
listening room on second floor.
Mr. Mulka pointed out that
he'd like to see more students

The Case of fh e
Mys terio us Class Dues
Once upon a time there was a friendl y college perched on a hill,
far above a river winding. This college had an ordinary
arrangement , as far as colleges go. Students came , s pent one year
each as a freshman , sophomore , junior and senior , attended
graduation and went their merry way to attempt to seek employment.
But somewhere between the end of their senior year and their
graduation , there was a very stran ge disappearance which occurred regularly each year. Every graduating senior was required
to turn in their class dues in the amou nt of six dollars . They were
told that if they didn 't pay this fee, they would not receive their free
yearbook (each graduating senior was entitled to one) and they
would not receive their diploma. This was all very stran ge to the
people in the Yearbook office , because they had never been notified
of any list of recaltricent seniors. It was especially stran ge since
they received their entire budget from the Community Activities
Fee of $50 which was paid by every stude nt each spring.
Another strange factor in the Case of the Mysterious Class Dues
was that each senior had to pay $5 diploma fee in the spring . So the
Dues weren 't being used to pay for diplomas. And each senior also
had to pay a cap and gown fee, which meant it wasn't being used for
that either. Very mysterious!
The question arose : just exactly what was the money being used
for? Approximatel y 800 graduating seniors multiplied by six
dollars was quite a tidy sum. The search went on.
Attempted questio nings of involved administrato rs (both student
and facult y) resulted in some mumb led comments of "Senior Class
Gift ," and "Senior Dinner Dance. " Was this the Senior Dinner
Dance that was so poorly attended that for several years it had to
be called off? What was this mysterious "Gift"? Who had chosen
this gift, what was it, where was it now? The Pergola that stands
classicly behind Montour Hall has peeling paint and lack of use to
attest to the fact that it was the Gift of the Class of 1916. The Stone
lions (Leo and Leona ) which once stood at the end of a stone walk
next to Carver have long since gone into stora ge — much to the
chagrin of the Class of 1912. The miniatu re of the future BSC when
all hopes and drea ms are fulfilled still stands in Carver 's main
lobby as tribute to the Class of ' 64.But what of all the intervenin g
years? No pictures were taken of checks being handed out to
deservin g organizations , no press releases were sent by the Senior
Class officers. The money seemed to have passed into oblivion.
Tune in for more on the CASE OF THE MYSTERIOUS CLASS
DUES!

The M&G Sports staff is kept
busy covering all .games and
athletic events throughout the
school year, along with their
photographers. Most people do
notice those snapping shots at
basketball games and wrestling
matches but few know anything
about those who fill the sports
pages with such exciting news.
Sports Editor Bill Sipler from
Sharon Hill, Pa., heads the
department since September,
1973. A part-time sophomore, he
supplements his education by
working at Carrol's. Bill
transferred to BSC from
LaSalle College in January 1973
and is working toward a double
major in Political Science and
English and a certificate in
Journalism. An avid hockey
nut , he also enjoys hunting,
music and playing his guitar.
Bill writes songs and poetry and
has been recorded on London
Records.
From Stroudsburg comes
Freshman Kim McNally,
assistant Sports Editor. A
Secondary Ed major in Communications, she worked as a
proofreader for the Pocono
Record one summer. Experienced in sports writing Kim
served as Sports Editor in her
senior year of high school. Her
interests include horseback
riding and the piano, as well as
collecting antique junk.- As a
tour guide for a two hundred
year old Pennsylvania Dutch
farm in the Stroudsburg area,
Kim learned to milk a cow and
spin flax into yarn, dye it and
weave some original designs.
The sports writing staff
consists of two freshmen who
both enjoy athletics. Dale
Myers from East Berlin, Pa. is
an English major with a concentration in Journalism.
A sports reporter for his high
school newspaper and a
member of the basketball ,
football and baseball teams, he
brings much athletic knowledge
with him. Working with migrant
orchard pickers during the
summer, Dale has picked ,
canned and packed fruits. He
also did landscaping work parttime.
Craig Winters is a pre-med
major from Holmes, who has a
craving for journalism and
might someday switch his
major. His father, a chemist,
influenced his choice in pre-med
but Craig thinks he has more of
a talent in writing. An avid
athlete who enjoys fishing,
bowling and intramural soccer,
Craig was a member of his high
school's cross country and track
teams.

An attempt to bring Mansfield
out of their tenancious zone
defense early in the second half
resulted in a slow down offense
as the Huskies of BSC downed
the Mounties 57-47 Saturday
night.
The Huskies, led by John
Willis who scored 28 of the
teams 57 points, forced Mansfield to come out of their zone
that had given BSC some
problems late in the first half.
The freeze BSC put on the ball
lasted almost three minutes as
they controlled the ball with
crisp passing on the outside.
Mansfield was forced out of the
middle and the Huskies
proceeded to put the game
away. "They didn't want to play
us man to man and we didn't
want to play them zone," Coach
Chronister stated after the
game. "We had the lead so we
could dictate the way the game
was playod." The Huskies must
have dictated fairly well as they
overcame the stubborn Mountie
zone when they spread it out.
On the other end of the ceurt,
the Huskies continued strongly
on defense as they held Mansfield's top scorer, Walt Winch,
to just six points, all of which
came in the first half. Mansfield
had only two players in double
figures. Stanford Mahan had 13
and Leon Haskins had 12.
Games Action
>
BSC opened the game by
scoring ten points to four by the
Mounties. However the largest
lead of the half was only an
eight point breach as the
Mounties hung on and tied and
then took the lead briefly
around the six minute mark.
The Huskies were able to seek
out a lead of five points by the
end of the half as Mansfield's
shooting took a vacation. The
Huskies lead at half time was a
slim margin at 32-27.
In the second half , using a
slow deliberate offense coupled
with Mansfield mistakes, the
Huskies managed to get their
game rolling. The largest lead,
16 points, was only achieved
toward the end of the game but
the Huskies had built it up
throughout the second half.
Net Notes
Coach Chronister felt "that
it' s the mark of a coop team to
be able to come out and be able
to change their pattern of offensive." He also felt that the
officiating was on the poor side.
Some of the calls were
questioned by the fans as the
game slowed down.
The Huskies travel to East
Stroudsburg tonight to take on
the Warriors. J.V. action starts
at 6:00 p.m. The J.V.'s are still
undefeated. The next home
game is February 20 against
Cheyney.

Wres lting Notes
By Bill Sip ler
The Grapplers of BSC upped
their record to 15-3 with their
win over Lock Haven last week
in what might be termed a
sweet victory. The Huskies
suffered what Coach Sanders
felt was their worst beating by
any team. The fact that the
Huskies downed Lock Haven in
their own gym made the win so
much better.
But making the fact sweeter
was that Dave Brandt returned
to action following a knee injury
early in the year . Brandt
wrestled fairly well , even
through he is not completely up
to par. Coach Sanders is unsure
if Dave will be able to wrestle at
the conference meet but he has
been getting excellent wrestling
from Bill Kaercher , so Brandt
will have to improve himself in
good style.
Bernie Biga is still out with
bruised ribs. The Husky
Heavyweight might have

cage.
Coach Sanders feels that it
has been a great year so far and
he hopes it will continue in the
same vein. The team has put up
with a heavy burden in that they
practice daily including Sundays, but the outcome has been
worth it. The Huskies are
ranked forth in the nation in
College Division II and seventh
over all in the east.

I
By Bill Sipler
¦ SUNY Oneota dumped the
¦
Huskies of BSC 64 to 49 before
¦the home fans at Nelson
I
Fieldhouse pool Saturday. The
I
loss dropped the Huskies '
¦record to 7-4 overall .
I
The Huskies were paced in
I
the losing cause by Stu Marvin ,
¦ a three event winner and Rich
I
Kozicki, two firsts and a second.
I
Marvin triumphed in both the 50
I
and 100 yard freestyle events
¦ and combined with Kozicki,
I
Paul Richards and Dave Slade
I
to make up a winning 400
I
freesty le relay team. Kozicki, in
I
addition to his role on the 400
I
free - relay team, won the 500
yard freestyle and placed
I ,
I
second in the 200 yard free.

Oneota
I
Oneota won the meet in a
I
simply overwhelming fashion
I
as they allowed BSC comI . petitors only 4 first place
I
finishes .on the pay. They also
I
compiled 4 seconds and 5 thirds
I
in addition to the 9 firsts to give
I
them their 64 points.

Oneota's National Champion
I
Breast stroker, Nido, set a new
pool record as he pulled away
from the pack to finish in a time
of 2:21.69. Nido also took a third
in the Individual Medley and
swam on the winning 400
medley Individual Medley and
swam on the winning 400
medley relay team.
Husky Finishers
While Marvin and Kozicki
accounted for the only individual first place finishes, the
Huskies provided the fans with
some exciting moments. Team
captain Bill Ewell swam a
strong ra ce but couldn 't catch
Oneota 's O'Donnell in 1000-yard
freestyle. Ewell also took a
third in the 200 yard Butterfly.
Other Husky finishers were
Dave Slade, with a second in the
50 freestyle and a third in the
100 free ; Paul Richards, second
in the 200 yard Individual
medley ; Jim Campbell , third in
the 200 yard backstroke; Steve
Packer , third in the 200 breast;
Eric Cureton , second in the two
one meter events and Rich
Walters, third in the one meter
events.
Huskie fans have some more
reason to be happy as Dave
Thran kept up with Nido in the
200 yard breast. Nido 's quality
helped him pull away but Thran
shows promise for the future.
Swim Notes
The Huskie's next home meet
is Friday night against West
Chester at 7:00 at the Nelson
Pool. The meet against Oneota
included two one meter events,
one required and one optional
dives. Each diver had to do five
dives during the required event
and had his choice of five dives
he could do in the optional
event.

BSC's women's swim squad
took home their first loss of the
'74 season last Saturday but as
they left Lycoming College's
. .pool under a 53-42 decision, it
didn't seem as though the
Huskies had lost.
One of the main problems for
the team was what one of the
swimmers termed Lycoming's
"crude pool ." Being under
regulation length and width , the
pool was too small for 200 and 50
yd. events, (160 and 40 yards
were swum instead) and an
extra lap had to be taken for the
100 yd. matches. Also, due to the
four-lane width of the water,
only two swimmers from each
team could be entered in each
event.
The Huskies' Tina deVries
pulled in the only individual
swimming wins of the day for
Bloom, as backed by Mary Ruth
Boyd and Sue Nickum
res p ect i vel y , she took both
backstroke events. Tying the
pool record with a 25.3 in the 40
yd. event, Tina established a
new record in the 160 and left
RSf.'s mark at I.veomine with a

Although Lycoming's board
was set on unfamiliar concrete

novice diver Mary Ann

places, gleaning eight points for
Bloomsburg.

and judging, " the Huskie

Lycoming again.
"The meet wasn't officially

"If Ly com ing wants to come to
our pool, we'll welcome them ,
but as f ar as Bloomsburg is
