Lobby Day Scheduled

By SHANESTECK
Fifteen members of CAS and CGA will represent Bloomsburg
State College on Student Lobby Day, Monday, March 7, in
Washington, D.C. Their focus will be on repealing recent tuition
hikes and student aid budget cuts.
Student Lobby Day gives students an opportunity to meet and
make appeals to congressmen and senators, in hopes to support on
issues concerning student life.
Last year's lobby day, attended by some 7500 students, resulted
in the repeal of a massive tuition hike.
This year's lobby day will concentrate on the Solomon Amendment,' requiring draft-age males to register before receiving
government aid , as well as student aid budget cuts and tuition
hikes. The highlight of the day is a student rally culminating on the
Capitol steps.
CAS coordinator Michele Kessler is optimistic about the event.
"Students can make a difference, " she said. "The lobby day gives
us a chance to key in on people." Kessler encourages students to
get involved by writing letters to their local representatives voicing
their opinions about dwindling financial aid, increased budget cuts,
and the Solomon Amendment.
Kessler feels it is the responsibility of the students to keep
government officials informed about the special needs of college
students. Student Lobby Day gives students that chance.

redoubling our efforts this
year."
The proposed Fiscal Year
1983 funding levels for federal
student aid programs represent
a 1.5 billion reduction in current
dollars from 1980.
Preceding student action day
will be the 14th nnual USSA
lobbying conference, March 4
through
6,
at
George
Washington University . The
lobbying conference will
feature workshops on the innerworkings of congress, financial
aid, electoral skills, economic
alternatives , issues analysis
and civil rights enforcement.

NoTuitionHike Planned
Secretary of Education Robert Wilburn said
last week that there will be no tuition increase
for Pennsylvania's state-owned colleges next
year. The comments came during the House
Appropriations Committee budget hearings.
Accordingto Wilburn a tuition increase is not
needed because of the planned appropriations
for the state system in the Governor's budget
and a savings that will be incurred from a new
pension reform plan.
Thornburgh has proposed a 2 percent increase
in appropriations. The State College and
University Directors Board , at their last
meeting,* mandated a 4 percent appropria tions
increase for the state-owned colleges. College
presidents stated that an increase of $150 per
student would be needed on top of the 4 percent
increase.
Representing the Commission of State College
and University Presidents, California State
College President John Watkins said that the
Commission requested over $20 million in funds
for the state-owned institutions real needs to be
met.
Thornburgh's proposed appropriation would
net $5.6 million for the institutions with another

Student Action Day, Monday,
March 7, in Washington, D.C.
Students from Pennsylvania
and across the nation will meet
with their legislators and hold a
rally at 4 p.m. on the steps of the
Capitol.
The purpose of National
Student Action Day is to call
attention to student concerns
including full funding for
financial aid programs , no
further restrictions on the
Guaranteed Student Loan.
Program, enforcement of civil
rights statutes and the repeal of
the Solomon Amendment,
which links draft registration to
the receipt of student aid.
CAS will be sponsoring buses
to the action day so that
students may meet and lobby
their
senators
and
congresspersons. Buses will be
leaving from the Indiana
University of Pennsylvania and
West Chester State College.
"I would especially urge
students from the state-owned
colleges of Pennsylvania to
attend since we have the highest
tuition in the nation for public
institutions and over 80 percent
of our students receive some
sort of student aid," a CAS
spokesman said.

system a total appropriation of $11.6 million.
This is $9 million short of the Commission of
Presidents request.
Rep. Kurt Zwikil (D-132) asked Watkins if
"you won't need a tuition increase this year" and
Watkins was unable to answer. After a long
silence Watkins said, "We needed $20.6 million
and got $11.6 million, I think we can live on the
funds."
Wilburn , asked if it was possible that the new
Board of Governors will decide to increase
tuition replied, "Yes, it is possible."
The Commonwealth Association of Students
will be urging legislators to appropriate a 6 to 8
percent increase for the state-owned colleges
and university.
Also during the hearing Wilburn said that the
Department of Education would be working to
improve Cheyney State College.
"We plan to make a presence for Cheyney in
West Philadelphia and to move the college into
industrial technology programs, " Wilburn said ,
"The key is more interaction between Cheyney
and the city. "

By Name Change

By DAN LOUGHLIN
Speech, Mass Communication
and Theatre is out. The
Department of Communication
Studies is in.
This departmental name
change was finally made official at the start of this
semester, after months of
careful study, evaluation, and
discussion.
A number of professors within
the department felt that the
name Speech, Mass Communication and Theatre gave
people the department was split
up and not unified.
Other arguments that went
against the old name were that

it was probably the longest
departmental name in the
discipline and it was just plain
difficult to say.
informal
After
some
discussion, a name change
committeewas set up with Mr.
William Acierno as chairman.
Mr. Acierno agreed with the
arguments against the old
name.
"We all felt that a name such
as the Department of Speech,
Mass Comm. and Theatre
divided us," he said. "People
thought of us as three separate
entities rather than one unit. "
Alderfer ,
Dr.
Richard
chairman of the department,
actually tried for a name
change himself five years ago,
but nothing ever came of it.
However, he is very pleased
that the change finally came
about and credits Dr. Mary
Kenny Badami and Dr. Howard
Schreier with reintroducing the
proposal last year.
Dr. Badami said that the
professors spent one year just
talking about it and after the
committee was set up, a full
month was taken just to study
the possibilities.
"We had to ask ourselves if it
was worth the trouble trying for
a change, and if it was, what
would be the new name? Dr.
Badami said. "We came up with
a list of names from other
schools and circulated it within
the department."
"We then weighed the pros
and cons of each new name that
was proposed , and voted
overwhelmingly for Communication Studies ," she said.
"But that didn 't finalize things.

LetterParty Reply

Dear Editor :
I am writing in response to
the article written by William
Parker entitled, "Noisy Parties
Can Put A Dent in Your
Wallet," ( 2-26-83). While the
article accurately depicted
what happens when a party gets
busted, I feel it was in poor taste
to name those students recently
involved.

IDON'TKNOWWHYEVERYONEIS SO
,<^ DOWN ON
ffiOl MR.REA6AH?

Did you ask them for permission to print their names, or
at least inform them tha t you
were using their situation for
the basis of your article? Guilty
or not, I feel those names did not
belong in a feature story. I know
I would feel very used and
betrayed to find my name in
such a story. Next time,
William V. Parker, show some
compassion !

Recycle On Campus
Did you know that you can
recycle in the dorms and in the
offices on campus? Students
can place their recyclables in
designated areas in dorms or in
some cases outside of dorm
rooms. RA's or student
volunteers will move the
material to the pick-up areas.
In each office on campus

there are boxes or other
receptacles for recyclable office paper. The custodial and
housekeeping staff move the
material to pick-up areas. In
both cases, dorms and offices,
Volunteer Recycling picks up
these materials and delivers
them to the Recycling Center.
Recycling makes sense

because it saves energy and
preserves natural resources for
future use. The old habits of
throwing the aluminim can or
typed sheet with dozens of
mistakes will die hard but with
perserverance new habits can
be created. Everybody at BSC
recycle and save a tree.

Exchange Student Studies in U.S.

By NANCY E. SCHAADT
How would you feel about a
university with no mandatory
classes, tuition paid by the
government, and traveling
every weekend? If you can
speak fluent french, transfer to
Institute Commercial de.Nancy.
Better yet, become a foreign
exchange student like Francoise Leclerc.
Leclerc is the first exchange
student to visit the U.S. from

Most universities and
colleges in France are
state
owned
and
operated so the student pays no tuition.
her college, Institute Commercial de Nancy. (ICN) Most
universities and colleges in
France are state owned and
operated so the student pays no
tuition. The only fees paid are
room, board , and insurance. In
addition , expenses are about
$1500 a term. ICN only accepts
65 students of the 1000 to 1500
that apply each year. It is one of
the five best business schools in
France. Tl]ere are no mandatory classes, and only final
exams. "People study so hard
to be accepted, and then never
study, and flunk out," Leclerc
said.
Students in France prepare
for higher education by taking
baccalaureates, exams much
like our SATs, except harder.
"We study for abou t a year to
take the bacs and then apply for
college," explained Leclerc.
When questioned abou t the food
at ICN, Leclerc had this to say,

"The food in the student-run
restaurant is very bad and
expensive. In comparison, the
food at the commons is wonderful! Very good!"
"The french painter Monet
did some of his best work in my
home town of Dieppe," Leclerc
explained. Dieppe is in the NW
part of France on the English
Channel. During a recent trip to
New York City, she saw an
exhibit on Monet's work. "I was
thrilled to see his work, he was
truly a world renowned painter."
In France, Leclerc is always
busy. She enjoys sailboating,
horseback riding, karate, and is
involved with concert choir in
both France and the U.S. The
choir of ICN travels all over the
country . And during holidays,
Leclerc takes sailing courses in
Saint Jean of Luz, located in the
SE of France. Like most young
French people, she also loves
discussions of politics and
current affairs. "Of course we
talk about boys, but we love to
debate controversial issues."
They also love to consume wine
and cheese, "Because we have
so much of it!" she said.
Here in the U.S., Geisinger
Medical Center in Danville
occupies a great deal of
Leclerc 's time. Along with
carrying 9 credits, she is doing
an internship in the Department
for Staff Development dealing
with her major, Marketing. On
campus, she is taking Concert
Choir, Economics II, Business
Management and Business
of
the
Finance. . One
requirements of her trip to the
U.S. is that she prepares five or
six reports, covering student

life and the economy of the U.S.
and Bloomsburg.
Looking to the future ,
Leclerc's ideal job would be
with a small or medium sized
company. Due to her love of
sailing, a job in a sailboat
manufacturing company would
be preferred. She is studying
International Business-Marketing and is fluent in three
languages: french , german arid
english. Leclerc also spent two

months studying in Germany .
"I enjoy getting the opportunity
to practice my languages," she
said.
In the course of Leclerc s stay
in the U.S., she has come to
realize tha t Americans are
quite different from her
previous impression. "I now
know that Americans are not at

professors and students to have
a "Foreigner go home" attitude, but that is not at all what
I found ," she said.
Leclerc's social life in the
U.S. has been quite hectic. This
reporter has learned from a
reliable source that Leclerc has
mastered the game of quarters .
So at your nex t gathering,
beware of a dark haired woman
with a french accent saying,
"How do you play this game?"
It is probably Francois!

In Wednesday , Feb. 23 issue of this paper , Dr. Charles

mis-quoted as saying "I have two minds, one is the master of the

In the deepest, darkest corners of the caverns in Hartline,
resides a lively doctor of
biology, whose interests in more
than enough time-consuming
pleasures keep him on the go.
The man in honor is Dr. Fred
Hill, and his story is one of involvement and true dedication
to his interests.
Hill has been at BSC for eight
of his 15years of teaching. Prior
to that he received much of his
schooling from Illinois State
University, 111. and his doctorate at the University of
Louisville, Kentucky, where he
assertsj hat he was not on the
basketball team.

"The student is most
important in a teaching situation."
It was this type of humor that
stood out as a positive force
throughout the dura tion of our
interview. When asked wha t he
liked most about teaching I was
not surprised to get this answer,
"The student is most important
in a teaching situation. It is
essential that the information
given be useful to the student."
Hill also emphasized that
contact with students is also a
positive reinforcement.
His forte, if you will, ' is

just one of the things he does
well. Hill likes the challenge of
new horizons ; new spaces. In
his eight years at BSC, he has
taught 20 different courses. In
taking the challenge of teaching
these courses, he finds that he
learns in the process as well. Of
the 20, Embryology is the newest
subject , which he finds
fascinating. According to Hill,
"it can open doors to so many
other biology-related courses.
Aside from the general
courses he teaches, Hill devotes
time to personal and collegerelated experiments and archeological studies. Starting
around 1962, he formed a
research group at Northwestern
University which identified
animal remains at a site in
Kampsville, 111. which is still
functioning today according to
Hill, "the area had the potential
to unravel ecological information that was 10,000 to
12,000 years unknown."
The most influential project
to date with which Hill was
associated was that of the

Koster Site, a pig farm on the
bank of the Illinois River. He
was the zoologist assigned to the
site to analyze Koster animal
remains. Wha t appeared to be a
simple farm by a river was in
facta gold mine of artifacts and
information of inhabitants in
their habitats dating back 10,000
years. Hill, as well as many
other individuals published
papers on the research there.

'The Hostage' Illustrates
Political, Social Justice

By KAREN A. PETRUZZI
Since the hectic days of
political and social struggle of
the '60s, we have drifted into a
world of computerization. We
are willing to sit for hours and
fight the battles of solving
problems on computers, or
tasks challenged by video
games.
But Brendan Behan 's "The
Hostage," the recent production
of the Bloomsburg Players, has
brought back to the college
scene the concern for political
and social justice so vital to
college campuses across the
country in decades past.
The struggle of Leslie (Chris
Maron), the British soldier held
hostage by the Irish Republican
Army, and Teresa (Wendy
Kerrick ) , the housemaid who
becomes romantically involved

with him , stir within the
audience the inkling that all is
not fair in love or war. The
performances of Maron and
Kerri ck as the lovers are excellent.
The play, though laced with
comedic undertones, is serious
in nature. It is best tha t no one
under 14 was admitted , for a
child certainly would not have
understood the play 's message.
As it was, there were laughs at
inappropriate places and
sarcastic jokes missed.
Dana Creasy (Patrick) , and
Larry Murphy (Princess
Grace) both presented fine
performances. '
There were problems with the
accents in some of the performances, however. All those
staying in the brothel who
spoke with Irish accents were

By GAYLE WEAVER
Did you ever dream abou t
living in a far away country?
Nancy Russell , an early
education major here at BSC,
lived in Quito, Ecuador for four
months. Nancy traveled to
Ecuador, South America as a
participant in the program
"Student Teaching Overseas."
Mr. Gordon Miller is in charge
of the BSC program. Nancy was
accompanied by another
student in the program , Karen
Steiger.
Nancy left the comforts of the
U.S. and traveled by plane to
Quito, Ecuador on August 14,
1982. The country of Ecuador is
about the size of the state of
Colorado. It is a very mountainous country and is about
9,000 feet above sea level.
There are rainy and dry
seasons, but the temperature
remains about the same. In the
mountains, the temperature is
65 to 70 degrees, but the
coastline (on the equator) is
about 100 degrees. In Quito, a
combination of the old and
modern can be found in the city.
Nancy's destination was the
Academia Cotopoxi school ,
named after the Cotopoxi
Volcano found in Ecuador.
Nancy was able to stay at the
home of a teacher at the school.
While there, Nancy took a fourweek "cram" course in the
Spanish language, since she
didn't know any of the language
before going to Ecuador. Nancy
observed the work of the kindergarten class during her first
v/eek at the school. She also
taught eight weeks of art and
music classes. Nancy enjoyed
developing a learning art center
and a discovery table that
displayed learning activities
which related to the lesson for
each week.
Two kindergarten classes
were Nancy's first endeavor.
There were thirty-seven

students who came from varied
backgrounds and nations
ranging from Japan , China,
Brazil , Israel , Ecuador ,
France, Canada, United States,
England, and Finland. Many had parents who worked in the
embassy, oil companies, or
airlines - she even met one
student whose father was an
astronaut. A lot of the children
do not know English, which is
why parents send them to the
school. When the children are
working or playing together,
they speak in Spanish. A typical
day started at 8:30 a.m. and
included activities such as
singing and saying the
alphabet, language arts, independent activities, snack
time, pre-math , pre-reading
exercises, music, and art
projects.
Nancy discovered many
differences between the school
in Quito and schools in the
states. In Ecuador, they did not
have a lot of learning materials
for the children, since it costs so
much to have supplies brought
into the country. Also, the
students in Ecuador were
allowed more freedom of expression. The students did not
always have to sit in their
assigned desks, instead the
teacher would sit on a chair and
students gathered around her.
Kindergarten children were
enthusiastic, attentive , and
motivated.
Next, Nancy observed a third
grade class. She found they had
many discipline problems and
took more lesson planning. The
children had a full day learning
numerous subjects. Outside of
the classroom, she took the
children on field trips to a
bakery and clothing factory
located near the school.
Nancy's four months in Quito,
Ecuador passed quickly and

not consistent — some started
with' one and eventually lost it.
and others switched back and
forth.
Hi toshi Sato should be
commended on the set design
and direction. Karen Howley,
ligh ting designer, also did a fine
job, especilly in the raid scene
near the end of the play.
"The Hostage" was a fine
production tha t should not have
been missed, for all of the
players and technical crew
creatively and effectively
produced their rendition of the
play. This interesting perspective of humanity struggling
for justice was a welcome
change from video games and
computers.

INTENSE ACTING in the comedy appealed to the audience
and made "The Hostage" a success.

fishes or hunts for leisure,
which is rare in itself , Hill may
stumble across a piece of old
wood which others would

art and a purpose in the wood,
he takes it home and sculpts it
on his lathe. Having viewed a
few of the pieces myself, I can
understand how this can be an
extremely satisfying hobby,
which, over time, can develop
into a good retirement interest.
During the course of the interview with Hill, I asked him if
he was content being here at
BSC. He said he didn't like the
word "content" because it
exemplified idleness in some
respect. I understood then that
this man, with all the diversity
of his interests, was just the
opposite. By the way, he likes it
here.

The 200 medley relay also
snagged a third with Klamut,

Sunday saw the Huskies come
out looking a little better as two
more team records fell and the
three relay teams all finished
second. Colleen Grimm rewrote

In addition to her 200 freestyle
exploits, Cressman also turned

Knaus time was good for a fifth.
Another fine BSC outing was
turned in by Sue Mcintosh in the
1650 freestyle as she swam to an
impressive third place time.
Gardner was quite pleased
with the overall effort given by
her squad pointing out that all
the swimmers contributed. Like

the diving segment proved the
difference in the final standings.

The BSC women's track and
field team made a long and
successful road trip on Saturday to the fieldhouse of
Hamilton College, Clinton, N.Y.
to compete in a triangular meet
with Hamilton and the
University of Rochester. The
Huskies made the eight hour
road round trip worthwhile as
they won the meet with 70
points. Rochester was second
with 53 pts. and Hamilton was
third with 30 pts.
In addition to setting eight
school records, the women also
set five Hamilton College
Fieldhouse records. These
added to the two fieldhouse
records set in events ran only

records at the outstanding
upstate New York facility.

First place winners for
Bloomsburg were: Diane
Alfonsi (400 ) , Terri Purcell (600

soon it was December. The
school had a big Christmas
pr ogram, and Nancy was their
accompanist on piano for the
children in grades first through
sixth who participa ted. The
week before Nancy and her
friend Karen left, the teachers
had a big party for them.
Besides having many unique
experiences at the school ,
Nancy enjoyed her spare time,
also. At the beach, for instance,
she observed tha t the people,
lived very simple lives and
owned only the essentials. They
lived in small huts and obtained
their food from the ocean.
Nancy also saw the "Calle de
Rhonda", the oldest street in
the city of Quito, and even sat on
the "Statue of the Middle of the
World" , where the four
hemispheres of the world come
together. Her favorite activity

was shopping. The size of the
markets was overwhelming. In
South America , open-air
markets are common. She
bought baskets , hand-woven
sweaters for eight dollars, food,
and other trinkets. One thing
about the markets that she'll
never forget was the crying of
the poverty-stricken people as
they were trying to sell their
goods. "It was such a
haunting sound," said Nancy.
Young children as well as adults
try to find any jobs they can.
Nancy did not have much
trouble adjusting to the food in
Ecuador. Her favori te dish was
the seafood she ate when
visiting the beach. Arroz con
polio (rice with chicken) was a
common food item. She also
enjoyed cerviche, a cocktail
made from shrimp, onions, and
sauce. Most of all, the fresh
fruits were a real treat.

and Schneck. Third place
finishers included Alfonsi (55) ,
Henseler (3000), and Cindy
Graby ( triple jump ) . Fourth
place finsihers were Aiken (55),
Graby (300 and long jump ), Lori
Wagner (800 ) , Karen Flood
(1000) , nd Mary Ann Bet (shot
put).
This meet ends the 1983
Indoor Track; season for the women. The team finished with
a 3-1 dual meet record.
Individuals , who set school
records this season are: Vicki
Amici ( 800,;150p, 1 mile) , Diane
Alfonsi (55, 400), Alicia Kent
(50), Sue Schneck (300) , Pam
Aiken (500), Terri Purcell ( 600) ,
Karen Henseler ( 1000) , Danielle
Frace (55 hurdles), Monica
Scaffer ( triple jump ), and Patti
Davenport (high jump ).

At first , Nancy felt apprehensive about going so far
away from home but she knew,
she needed the experience. The
first month was especially hard
because she didn't know the
language.
Being in the big city for the
first time was a big adjustment
considering that Nancy is from
a 300 acre farm in Rome, Pa. "I
would love to go back!'' she now
says, "I would like very much to
teach there."
She has had quite a few people
ask her abou t her experience in
Ecuador and believes that more
people are thinking about going
overseas to do their student
teaching. Nancy Russell
completed a large task by doing
her teaching in a foreign
country. Hopefully, students in
the future will travel from BSC
to another country as, participants in this unique
education program.

Conrad: A Leader On and Off the Court
By DAN LOUGHLIN
Terry Conrad has been a
leader on the basketball court
for the past fou r years .
Although his playing career will
come to an end very soon, his
leadership qualities will remain
a part of Bloomsburg State
basketball for at least two years
to come.
Conrad, who will graduate
nex t December , plans to stay at
BSC to work on his masters
degree while also being an
assistant basketball coach. The
Business
Education
Accounting major also hopes to
stay in coaching after completing his education.
"I definitely want to stay in
coaching," Conrad said. "As far
as when and where, I'll just

masters degree while
also being an assistant basketball coach.
have to wait and see. I'd like to
be a Division II college coach if
I can get into it somewhere."
A native of McSherrystown,
Pa., Conrad graduated from
Delone Catholic in 1979 after a
very impressive high school
career, which stirred the interest of a number of colleges.
Some of the schools interested
in his abilities included most of
the Pennsylvania state schools,
Mount Saint Mary 's and
Randolph Macon. However,
none of these schools showed as
much interest as BSC and Head
Coach Charles Chronister.
"I had some offers from a
number of fairly good Division
II schools, but Coach Chronister
showed a lot more interest in
me than the other state schools
and other coaches who talked to
me," Conrad said. "I'm glad I
came here to BSC. Not too many
guys get the opportunity to play
the time I have for four years."
As the only senior on this
year 's squad , Conrad was
chosen captain and his

leadership quality would play
its most important role. Heavy
graduation losses left the
program in a rebuilding stage.
And after winning 23 of 24
games the past two years,
Conrad wasn't sure what would
happen this season.
"I wasn't too sure at the
beginning of the year how this
season would be, and I wasn't
even sure about my own role,"
Conrad said. "I think I was
expected to score some points,
but basically, I think I'm just
supposed to be a team leader
and I feel that I'm capable of
it."
So the Husky captain asserted
himself as both a leader and a
scorer. On February 21 at
Millersville, Conrad became the
10th player in BSC history to
reach the 1000 point plateau. He
is now currently eighth on
BSC's all-time leading scorer
list.
"I feel very happy, of course," he said. "It's a personal
accomplishment, but I think it's
not as important as the fact that
we're winning. Scoring my
1000th career point wouldn't
have meant as much if we were
8-19 instead of 19-8."
The
senior
from
McSherrystown is the 10th BSC
player to reach that plateau.
The others were Jerry Radocha
(1,778), John Willis (1,467),
Mike Wenrich (1,397), Robert
Herzig (1,362) , Richard Lloyd
(1,339) , Jon Bardsley (1,252), Al

(.1,026) , and William Swisher
(1,014).
Conrad felt that this year was
the most satisfying of his four
year career. But not because he
scored his 1000th point. He said

ho one expected Bloomsburg to
have a winning season because
the Huskies were forced to play
so many freshmen.
However, the lone senior-said
that the freshmen really impressed him not only with their
abilities , but with their

Assistant Coach Burt
Reese said , "Terry is a
major reason why
we've had such a successful season. He's
always been sound
both defensivel y and
offensivel y."
maturity and willingness to
learn. Conrad said the biggest
assets of the freshmen were
their excellent attitudes and the
fact that they all have winning
backgrounds and want to keep it
that way.
"This year has to be the most
satisfying of my career,"
Conrad said. "No one expected
us to have a winning season, let
alone make the playoffs and do
as well as we did. Although we
won 23 and 24 games the past
two years, we weren't as good
as we could have been. But this
year we went far beyond our
expectations, and that's a credit
to the coaching staff and the
entire program here at BSC."
Conrad feels that BSC has the
best coaching staff in the
Pennsylvania Conference and
maybe one of the best in the
East. He said that Chronister
works very hard at recruiting
and definitely knows who's got
talent and would fit into BSC's
his
"Without
program.
(Chronister) hard work last
year at recruiting, we wouldn't
have been as successful this
year."
The respect Conrad has for
his coach is mutual for
Chronister had this to say about
Conrad: "Terry's been one of
the most stabilizing players I've
had in my 12 years here. He's
always helping the younger
players off and on the court."
"This (scoring 1000 points) is

a just reward for a player who's
been as important as anyone to
our program over the years."
Assistant Coach Burt Reese,
who has been at BSC for the
past 16 years said: "Terry is a
major reason why we've had
such a successful season. He's
always been sound fundamentally, both defensively
and
offensively.
His
fearlessness in drawing the
charge has taken away many

offensive threats by opposing
teams."
"As for his leadership,
Terry's been one of the best
captains we ever had — if not
the best. I'm looking forward to
having him < on the coaching
staff as an assistant next year."
Terry Conrad' s playing days
may be past him, but his
coaching days are in the not-todistant future.

The overall performance of
the team, however, was not up
to par with past performances,
as several swimmers fell far
below their average times in
most of the races.

The i.u.P. meet represented
one of the few times this season
the Huskies were thoroughly
defeated by an opponent.
After an impressive 4-0 start
in the season, the Huskies tailed
off by finishing their remaining

Cressman Wins Lone Title

Lady Swimmers Claim Second at PSAC's
By WADE DOUGLAS

The Lady Huskies swim team
must think they've experienced
a bit of deja vu during this
season. First, they end up with a
9-1 season log with their lone
loss coming at the hands of
Clarion. Next , they finish
second at the PSAC Championships, again behind Clarion.
The only thing left to happen is
for the team to again take the
runnerup honors at the National
Championships and they will
have identical back to back
years.

Although the lady

only on title, their
543 Ya points was good

will be held at Clarion from
March 3-5.

Aloft Thran prepared
himself for states in
winning the 200 breaststroke with a time of

2:18.01.

I.U.P. completely dominated
the contest, winning seven of
the first 8 events, and nine of 13
overall.
The closest the Huskies came
to the lead was after the first
two events, when they trailed by
only one point at 9-8. The team
of Phil Christian, Matt Thran,
Brian Quibell and Ken Chaney
began the meet for BSC with a
second-place finish in the 400yard Medley Relay.
Freshman Mike Morris
followed next with a personal
best time of 10:56.20 to win the
1000-yard Freestyle, and
narrow the BSC deficit to one.

From then on it was all I.U.P.
as they won the next six events,
of which three (200-yard
Freestyle, 50-yard Freestyle
and 200-yard Butterfly ) were
done in one-two finishes.
The Huskies finally stopped
the I.U.P. streak when
Christian and freshman Bill
Pickard took one-two in the 200yard Backstroke.
Christian recorded the
winning time in 2:11.93, and
Pickard followed with his own
personal best of 2:12.65.
The 200 Back was the only
one-two finish BSC had for the
afternoon, as the Indians' team
depth and experience proved to
be a decisive factor in the meet.
Other good performances for
BSC aside from the two personal bests by Morris and
Pickard, included Freshman
Diver Rick Fosnot, who continued to show steady improvement by winning the 3meter diving competition with a
total of 191.6 points.
Matt Thran prepared himself
for the state tournament in
winning the 200-yard Breaststroke with a time of 2:18.01.
Thran will be one of BSC's top
swimmers as they move on to
Clarion this week.

Although Coach Mary Gardner's swimmers claimed only
one title during the championships, they piled up 543V2
points, good enough for second
place. The final team standings
saw Clarion take their eighth
consecutive crown with 846,
f ollowed by BSC 543%, Slippery
Rock 487, Shippensburg 243,
IUP 159, East Stroudsburg 123,
West Chester 115, Millersville
62, Lock Haven 44, and Mansfield 18.
Clarion was expected to
receive strong challenges from
both the Huskies and The Rock
for the team title but responded
to the challenge by winning 21 of
the 25 events. The Bald Eagles,
who were without distance star
Terri Peot, were led by an
outstanding tourney performance by Gina O'Connor.
O'Connor swept all three
backstroke events and the 100
Individual Medley, despite
strong efforts by BSC's Gwen
Cressman.
With Clarion wrapping up the
team title early, attention
focused on the second place
battle between BSC and The
Rock. Gardner stated, that
although the Huskies came out
very flat on Saturday, that when
the pressure was on the next
day, her team came through in
fine fashion.
The turning point of the
runnerup battle may have
occurred in the 200 freestyle.
After watching Clarion touch
first in nearly all of the meets 25
events, BSC and the rest of the
crowd were searching for
something to cheer for. Husky
sophomore Gwen Cressman
responded by blazing to a
1:57.11 clocking in the 200
freestyle. According to Gardner, Cressman's win nearly
brought the house down. It also
provided the spark for BSC to
take a firm hold on second

place.
As mentioned, BSC came out
flat on the Saturday segment of
the three day affair , but still
managed to post a few impressive individual times.
Cathy Sheridan continued on
her recordsetting run by bettering two of her own marks,
while Sue Boyer and Kelly
Knaus each set one.
The 500 freestyle saw the first
of Sheridan 's marks get
rewritten as she turned in a
5:13.50 time which placed her
third overall. Teammate Sue
Mcintosh also turned a fine
time in claiming a fifth.
Sheridan 's other standard
occurred in the 400 individual
medley, an event she has fallen
in love with since starting to
swim just three weeks ago. In
the three times she has competed in the event, Sheridan has
broken the record three times.
The latest with a 4:51.71, nearly
a three second improvement
over her previous mark. Cocaptain Tina Klamut finished
ninth , five places behind
Sheridan in a very fast time of
her own.
Boyer, the defending champ
in both the 50 and 100 breaststrokes, nearly repeated in the
former as she was timed in
32.38, nipping her old record by
five hundredths of a second.
Despite her record time,
Boyer's performance was good
for only a second place. Boyer
also swam to a fast time in the
200 breaststroke, but again
came up short with only a third
place. Laura Goetz set a personal best in claiming a ninth.

According to Gardner ,
Cressman's victory in
the 200 freestyle nearly
broug ht the house
down.
The fourth BSC record was
set by the team's star frosh
Kelly Knaus in the 200 IM, as
the Huskies took the third and
fourth spots. Knaus' 2:15.79
broke the former mark held by
Sheridan, it was good enough to
give Knaus a third place. Boyer
took fourth in setting her own
personal best, just a split
second behind her teammate.
In Saturday 's other results
BSC snagged two seconds and
four third places. The 100 IM
saw the Huskies give Clarion's
O'Connor a good run for the title
but settle for the runnerup spots
and a sixth place. In a very fast
race, Cressman and Boyer took
the second and third places
while Klamut gained a sixth.
BSC's other second happened in
tbeJOOfreestyle relay where the
