Allotment of funds to send the
wrestling and swimming teams
to national tournaments and the
basketball team to post-season
play, thus an allocation of
monies to CEC to attend the
international convention were
the topics discussed at the
Monday, February 25 meeting
of the CGA in the multipurpose
Room in the Union .
A total of $3300.00 was
allocated to the wrestling team
to participate in the National
wrestling tournament in
Anaheim , California.
This sum includes plane fare,
food, lodging, transportati on
and other expenses. Six
wrestlers, the team manager
and Coach Sanders will go on
the trip.
Swim Team Allotment
Monies amounting to $3000.00
were alloted
to Caoch
McLaughlin and the swim team
to travel to Long Beach ,
California to compete in the
National Swimming Tournament.
This money covers plane fare ,
meals and transportation.
Presently , six swimmers have
qualified for the meet.
A bill approving
the
's
participation
baske tb all team
in post-season tournaments ,
provided they qualify, was also
passed . A contingency of the
motion is that Coach Chronister
a nd t he te am are res ponsi ble
for total accountability of the
monies they request.
Budgetary Policy
A ll oca ti ons of such lar ge
sums of money are in keepi ng
wi th the budgetary policy which
sta tes that if an y school athlet ic
team qualifies for post-season
play, CGA is res p onsible f or
prov id i ng the necessar y funds .
A mot ion was granted the

CEC (Council fo Exceptional
Children ) $300.00 to send 15
members of their executive
board to their international
convention in New York over
Easter break. This sum does not
cover total cosis since each girl
expects to contribute from $1520 toward her trip.
An allotment of $1000.00 to the
Obiter for the purchase of 250
additional yearbooks was also
passed at the meeting. This
money will cover the costs of
both the books and postage.
A sum of $100.00 for the
foreign language clubs to
sponsor an International Day
was also passed. On International Day, high school
students interested in foreign
languages visit the school and
participate in various activities.
New Van

A sum not to exceed $2887.89
for the purchase of a new van
was also alloted at the meeting.
The possible purchase of a
second van is being looked into,
since it was pointed out that
most other state schools have
the use of two or more vans
while BSC has only one.
Two weeks ago Val O'Connell
and Sue Sweigert traveled to
Harrisburg to testify before a
Senate committee supporting
house bill 1757.
This bill would make it
possible for students whose
par ent' s income lies between
$15,000 and $20,000 to receive
federal and state loans.
There is also a campaign by
CGA to increase membership in
(Commonwea lth
CAS
Association of Students ).
Students would join as individuals inst ead of wit h t he
studen t governmen t. For further i nformation contact a CG A

presents a problem for us , with
specific focus on oil monopolies.
Concentrating on the problem of
powerful companies with selfish
decisions concernin g the
welfare of the United Sta tes, a
suggestion would be to
nationalize our power supplies .
In this way, the amount of
supply could be determined and
regulated and the free-hand
power of oil companies
dissolved.
Arguments were presented ,
the biggest
being
that
nationalizing would move us
closer to socialism , a great f ear
of the American people. Also,
what would then prevent the
government from actin g in a
way similar to the oil
monopolies : making profits ,
working for their own ends and
keeping information from us?
And finally, t hi s would be a step
toward dissolving free enter prise -and the spirit of
c om p et i tion bas i c to our
economic system.
Another
alternative
suggested was that of state
regulation . Limitations of fuel
reserves w i thin a' state would
result. Some national istic
regulation s would still be imposed in view of the fact that
some states have insufficient
amounts of energy available

By Valery O'Connell
"Speak up, you 're on the air "
is a highly infor mative program
broadcast by Bloomsburg ' s
WHLM , and considered a real
sounding boa rd for the entir e
community . On Tuesda y,
February 26, the show was
utilized by a BSC student , Eric
Yamoah , to plead the case of his
pet gorilla Schmedlev.
Schmedley , as was reporte d
in forme r M&G' s, had been
prohibited from coming to town
to join his master because of
adverse reaction by the
mothers of Bloomsburg. But the
Mayor agreed to allow Eric to
pre sent his plea on the radio and
according to th e response ,
Eric 's case would be decided.
On Tuesda y afternoon ,
beginning at 12:15 p.m. the
phone rang constantl y at the
station . Approxi mately twentyfive callers presented their
opinion s and Eric only recei ved
two adverse repercussions. He
was surprised by the favorabl e
responses for at the* beginning
of last week the fate of Schmidlev appeared very dim.
But Tuesd ay 's broadcast
decided th e fate of his
domesticated pet One cajjg r
reporte d that "Another townsdweller owns and keeps a
cougar on his pr operty. Why not
a domestica ted gorilla?" A
minister in town invited Eric
and Schmedley to "worship in
. my church anyt ime." Some
students from campus called in
stating th at a gorilla in town
would be a real educational
experien ce for metropolitan
Bloomsburg. One caller also
commented that "some men
roaming our town 's st ree ts are
more dangero us than any
gorilla. "
One adverse comment came
from a neighbor of Eric 's. This
lady was concerned for her
three little children because
"Schmedle y is a rea l live
gorilla , no matter how you look

-^^mr

at it. " Eric asked if he could
visit this family and was invited
"but not your pet. " Another
disagreeing opinion came from
a man who asserted that "no
matter how domesticated you
report your pet is,* he still is a
wild animal , unused to
American Society. "
Schmedley will probabl y be
arriving in Bloomsburg when
Eric return s from his break. As
of yet , his dwelling place has not
been decided upon , for Eric
must settl e this with his
disagreeing neighbor. He does
nto wish to cause any kind of
controversy in his neighborhood. Possibly Schmedley
will stay at the Lambda Chi
Alpha fraternity house . Even
so, we are assure d the presence
of a gorill a on campus
sometime th is spring and
hopefully his appearance will
not frighten anyon e.

Undefea ted after seven games

Cag ers down B i sonett es, 35-32

By Kim McNally
The meeting of Bison and
Huskies isn 't t oo comm on ,
except on the basketball court
where anything can happen.
And Tuesday evening these two
did clash on BSG's Centennial
boards , as Bloomsburg 's
women cagers managed to
buffalo the Bisonettes of
Bucknell University with a 35-32
final score and remain undefeated.
As Husky coach Joanne
McComb commented after the
game, "We did not play our best
game at all; we weren't moving
to meet the ball, and since the
ball certainly wasn't coming to
meet us, we got into trouble. "
But as in the team's last two
matches, the winning factor of
BSC's play was their free-throw
ability. "Thank goodness for the
foul line!" commented Coach
McComb." Much of the effectiveness of this skill is due to
the fact that the squad is drilled
under playing conditions when
practicing the free throw .
Beth teams got bounced
around a lot during the game,
which proved to be extremely
ohvsical and outstanding in the

number of turn-overs and
fumbles.
The Huskies, who have been
averaging over fifty points per
game, were only able to sink 35
points out of many more attempts. Consistent lead scorer
Ellen French led again against
Bucknell as "she gleaned twelve
for the BSC Scoreboard.
Behind her were tri-captains
Nancy Barna with ten points
and Barb Donchez with seven.
Backing them up offensively
were Cathy Constabl e and*
Linda Shepherd with three
points each.
The game played closely
throughout both halves. The
first part of the bout ended with
a 16-12 score, BSC's favor.
Bloom led without surrender
but never by more than four
points. The Bucknell squad
pulled up close near the end of
the match but not in time*to out
score the Huskies.
The cagers finished their
outstandung season yesterday
at Marywood College, in their
seventh match of the year.

Houk returns from Moscow

Wrest li ng U.S.S.R.
By Kim McNally
"It's, hard to express the
feeling of landing by plane in
Russia — it was eerie; the plane
landed in the snow with no
lights, World War II trucks and
Russian soldiers working, and
no people at the airport."
So reported Russ Houk, BSC
phys. ed. professor and
Chairman of the United States
Olympic Wrestling Committee,
who recently returned from
three weeks in the Soviet
Union as the team leader for ten
wrestlers representing the
United States in international
competition .
"We left Boston on January
26," stated Mr. Houk, "after
three days of workout and clinic
at MIT."
"Then we flew to London , and
then on to Moscow."
"Ninety-nine percent of our
time after we landed in Moscow
was spent in the company of a
var iety of in t er preters."
Ho uk commented tha t one of
the first interpreters the team
had was one that was with Boris
Spassky when he challen ged
chess champion Bobby Fisher
i n Iceland.
"She (the interpreter ) was
reall y i nterested in reading
American books — I gave her a
p a p erback m y ster y about
Soviet spies and a Western... It
is much the same situation
there as it is in America : the
younger generati on doesn 't

an interpreter he spoke on
National Television and on the
Voice of America in U.S.S.R. He
found that as the team traveled
through the country he was
being recognized for his T.V.
appearance.
"And all the time we were
over there, we were treated
tremendously ; they were the
perfect hosts, and the food was
very good, although many of the
dishes were not familiar."
Mr. Houk reported that the
team stayed only 4-5 days in
each location. They were
"constantly moving, being
interviewed , and attending
banquets , meeting high officials."
The Russains certainly
seemed to be generous , as Mr. ,
Houk' s living room is filled with
beautiful displays of the gifts he
received while visiting the
Soviet with the team. Of course ,
the American team brought
gifts of their own to "tra de"
with their hosts. Houk reported
t hat t he young U . S. team found
many friends with their blue
j eans , record album s and
cassett e tapes.
"It was really a ' fantasitc
trip, " the coach commented.
"We saw a lot of the suffering
t hat went on in Poland and in
the USSR , but we never
discussed politics all the time
we were there. "
"O ne of the main reasons for
this tri p was the cultural exchan ge value involved . There 's
no question that we did a lot of
good, just going over there and
being with people. Our t eam

consisted of a lot of good guys
who gave a very favorable
impression."
Mr. Houk stated that the
Russians were constantly
impressing on him the importance of relating a "true
impression" of their country
when they returned to the
States. Overall, the trainer
commented that Poland is
getting more liberal , and
Russia is "getting there. "
As far as the wrestling itself
was concerned, Mr. Houk could
only state that "the greatest
teams in the world are in the
U.S.S.R."
"We were soundly defeated ,
but we performed well even in
losing. We did the best ever in
Tblisy, which is in Jordan —
there we took second place
where we had never placed
above fourth before."
All in all the American team
took in 46 tournaments and
participated in over one hundred ind iv idual matches , so
t hey were "really kept busy. "
Another important part of Mr.
Houk 's m ission abroad was to
negotiate for two Soviet teams
to come to the United States —
one at the end of March and the
other in mid-Ma y .

Note: These are the concluding sections of the B.S.C.
Concept Document. The firs t
part of the planning document ,
dealing with Institutional
Philosophy and the Missions
and Objectives , were printed in

The Concept Document was
written by the twenty-member
Planning Commission. The
preparation of the Document
was coordinated by Dr. Dayton
S. Pickett and Dr. Lee Hopple.
RATIONALE
This document portra ys a
college wh i ch will conduct
many of its programs along
p redic t able develo p mental
l i nes. No ra t ionale is offered for
these plan s. But the paper also
describes f our ma j or new
changes i n em p hasis or
direction for Bloomsburg State
College :
t he
significan t
reduc ti on of teacher education
de gree
reci pi en ts,
the
development of major efforts in
continuing education and public
service, the initiation of postsecondary vocational programs
below the baccalaureate level,
and the mounting of a major
new and integrated program in
health care delivery systems.
These changes call for substantiation .
Bloomsburg State College has
had increasing difficult y in
placing its teach er education
graduates (except in such fields
as business education, special
education, and communication
disorders ) in the past few years .

This factor combined with

{national and

manpower

Commonwealth

needs

studies ,
requires that the number of
teachers prepared by the
college be reduced .
This institution will experience a reduction in the
number of 18-22 year old applicants for admission in the
immedia te future. At the same
time , the people of the
Susquehanna flood plain will be
experiencing those social forces
which demand retraining,
enrichment , and
career
reorientation. As industry and
communities continue to

develo p throu ghout the area ,

the skills represented on the
staff of the college can be of
increas ing

use

in

that

development . The program in

public service and continuing
education will be the institution 's reaction to these
factors.
No junior or community
college lies within almost fifty

miles of Bloomsburg . Further ,
those lyi ng j ust outside t hat
commu t ing radius of f er a
l i mi ted number of programs in
vocational pre parat ion. W i th i ts
broader resources and experienced faculty, t he college is
i n a uni q ue posi tion to offer
programs of this t ype which
complement and augmen t the
prog rams of her sister institut ions.

The college's geographical
location, special physical plant
and f acult y resources , the
proximity of several major

health car e delivery instituti ons , and the lack of
com prehensive and integrated
health care education p rograms
in this part of the Comm onwealth all argue for the
devel op ment of a p rogram such
as th e one outlined in this
docum ent. The college has
received encouragemen t an d
support for its plan from the

staffs of most neighboring

heal th care instituti ons.
CHANGES TO BE MADE
WITHIN 1-5 YEARS
A ll obj ect ive statements
above, with t he excepti on of
objecti ves 1, 9C, and 9F , contain
descri ptions of cha nges anticipated within this time
period. Please refer to that
section for those descri ptions.
DESCRIPTION OF NEW
FACILITIE S NEEDED
In general, the college's plan
re quires no extensive new
construction within the next
decade . Better utilization of
existing campus facilities and

of land currently owned by
state , coun ty , and other

governmental agencies (parks ,
state hospitals, and municipal
facilities and structures ) can
meet many of the facility needs
of the programs outlined above.
It is clear , however , that
renovation ,
remodeling,
redesign, and replacement of

some existing facilities will be

required as the internal func-

tions of the college are
realigned. Some rental or lease

arrangements may also be
required to support the public
service
and
continuing
educat ion function.
Due to the college s intent to
broaden and diversif y its
curr i cular approaches , a
learning research center is

advisable to implement greater

inquiry into the learning
process. The function of this
facility would be that of improving the teaching-learning
process . Such a facility would

simultaneously serve faculty
research projects , student
research , special projects and

A
precise
descri p tion of this facility is not
possible at this time.

The
principal
facility
requiredby th e plans outlined in
this documen t, however , is that
required for the long-range
support of the programs encompassed
by
the
new

organizational unit devoted to
education in the health care

delivery, system area. The
location and specific nature of
this facility will be dictated by
the nature of the programs
themselves ,
but
the
requirement for a new and
major facility to support these
programs is now apparents.

Fina l Rep ort on Student
Evalua tion Revealed

Ed. Note : The following was
received in the Maroon and
Gold office on the evening of
February 26, 1974. The Student
Evaluation of Instruction which
it refers to took place on March
16, 1973. If you read the
following, titled' "Final Report
of the Task Force Committee ",
you will realize that the
students and faculty still know
no more about the results of the
Evaluation than they did last
March 15. In nearly a year 's
time, th e committee has
achieved the sum total of the
content of the report which
f ollow s. Bureaucratic red tape?
To say the least! The following
is the letter which accompanied
th e report. The lett er is
reprinte d as submitted to the
M&G:
John ,
Please tell the newspaper

staff that the names of the

represent atives from three
groups is being sent to them .
Also ask them to print in the

beginning or the end the

following . These
recommendatio ns may or may not be
followed. Also in the near futur e

a statement by the committee
will be sent to the staff concerning our present plans.

FINAL REPORT OF THE
TASK FORCE COMMITTEE
Based on the March 16, 1973

agreement concern i ng t he
sta t us of student evalua ti on of
inst ruct ion , a task f orce was

appointed which represented
the faculty, the administration ,
and the studen t s on the
Bloomsburg State College
cam pus. There was at that
t ime , and continues to be some
question as to the make-up of
t he student conti gency . It is

Care er Placement Cente r

( from page three )
reported by th e Ki p linger
re port , which forecasts a need
for more elementar y teachers
in the late '70' s when the expected offspring from the
children of the '50' s baby boom
will become school age. Her bert
Beanstalk of the Departme n t of
the Bureau fo Labor Statistics
in Philadel phia agrees with this
prediction .
Because of toda y's sur plus ,
many schools lean towar d one
of two concepts : either the
schools
hire
hometown
graduate 0 or try to create a
broa d educational atmosphere
by hiring graduates of many
different colleges and ex-

periences .
The 1974 graduatin g class has
1100 studen ts, the biggest in
history. Of these , about 750 are
in teacher education. Most BSC
graduates sta y in northeastern
Penns ylvan ia , man y near their
hometown or work in suburban
Philadel phia. Few seek inner
city j obs.
But career information is not
the only feature of the
Placement Center. Information
abou t summer jobs and
graduate schools is also '

available.

A thick file of summer jobs
holds flyers and information .
Many are cam p counsel or for
all kinds of camp s from special
education to Campfire Girls.

Waiter and waitress ing jobs are

also available in the Poconos.
Informatio n about state , federa l
and foreign summer jobs is also
on f ile.
Four hundred up-to-date
graduat e catalogues from
colleges and universitie s
around the United States ar e

there for students wishing to

continue

their

education .

Several com p rehensiv e
grad uate catalogu es can also be
found.

and their names along with
name of the known student
representative appear on this
document . The committee had
its initial meeting in ear ly April
and continued throu gh midNovember , a period of nearly
eight months . During this time
over 300 man-hours were
consumed in either direct
meetings , subcommittee
meetings, or work concerning
the instrument .
DATA AND DATA
ANALYSIS
The evaluation sheets were
scanned with the use of the
optical scanning equipment of
the college and the data were
placed
on tapes. The scanningi
operation was done twice so
tha t a program could be used to
verify the data . The two tapes
were compared and it was
found that there were 15,281
useable records, out of a total of
17,930. This represents 85.2 per

cent of the total records. It was
these records upon which all
analyses were made .
The first type of analysis
which was attempted was face
validity. A subcommittee was
appointed and a report received
from this subcommittee con-

cern i ng (a,ce validity. It must be
noted {fiat this type of report is
ra t her subjective and f or th is
reason the re port was rece ived
by the Task Force rather tha n
being formally endorsed . The
unendorsed re por t suggested
that the apparent f ace val idit y
was such as to p reclude
valuable inter pretat ion. Next ,
an i tem res ponse count was
made for the data , collegewide
totals. In other words , for
q uest ion one , the re port shows
how man y p eop le marked
alternative one ; how many
marked alternative two , etc .
The report details all questions
(See Recomth is way.
mendation 1 below.)
The very make-up of the
instrument made it extremel y

difficult to establish either

validit y or reliability . It was
noted , however , that question
numbers 5 through 30 as a group
had the same alternatives and
some analysis was possible. The
same held for q uestions 41
through 70, A subcommittee
was then appointed , and they
established
a procedure
whereby correlation coefficients could be established
based on two random grou ps
within each section in an attem pt to get at the reliability of
the instrument. No reliability
study was made on items 31
through 40 because each item
had a uni que set of a Her natives .

statements concerning validity

and reliabili ty.

be temperedwith the above two
statements.
4. Any implementation of this

report will be deferred until the

acceptance of the report by
the
BSCFA-APSCUF-PAHE ,
College Administration , and the
Community

Association.
RECOMMENDATIONS
1. The college-wide summary
of item respons e counts should

be made available to the entire

college community.
2. Only the individual
professor concerned should be
given access to his-her own

response counts.
3. An

individual

may be

publishe d only by the consent of
the faculty member using the
attached consent for m (draft ).
4. No other tre atment of these

data is authorize d now or in the

future.
5. The origin al response
sheets should be destroyed.
6. The tape with responses
will be kept in case any
question s should ar ise in the
future .

7.

menu for the week. Because of
different class periods, it's only
for supper that everyone has to
be around.
Once every week they have
guest cooks in the form of
sorority sisters or members'
girlfriends. Asked whether he
enjoys eating the food cooked by
the males or females, Jim
Gingrich, the chef , smiled and
replied, "mine, of course."
Explaining why they choose to
eat by candlelight, John Andes
says "we are heeding to the
President's call to conserve
energy." Very patriotic indeed !
- "Sometimes we invite kids to
come down and try our experiment out," cuts in Jack
Wolfe, "and they've always
praised the quality of the food.
We are glad things are working
out so well." Asked how they
pick out the lucky students,
Jack explains that "We flip
through the pages of the
campus directory and pick out
names at random."
So. next time you get a little
slip in your mail box and you
find three Greek letters on it,
don't tear it up thinking it's a
bid for you to pledge another
fraternity. It may be an invitation to a candlelight dinner,
but if you hate to dress up or to

pray before and after meals,
you might as well forget it.
"Among our specialties,"
according to Tom Konas, "are
spaghetti and meat balls, ham
with pineapple and vegetables,
chicken , chili or hot dogs and
fish."
So, folks, if you want to stop
torturing your stomach at the
Commons, you can do like these
eleven students did , even
though I think ARA Slater
deserves much praise for the
quality of food served in the
Commons at this time of rising
food costs. Perhaps the Dinner
Club will submit a contract to
BSC when ARA' s contract
expires.
