Students To Get Help
J.P. DUNCAN
Voice Contributor
Efforts are underway to investigate the formation of a new
campus organization to serve the
needs of Non-Traditional students.
These students are over 25 and - or
have had a break in their
education.
This past Friday a group of
students met to organize this investigating effort, concentrating on
identifying and meeting these
needs of the students. One of the
topics discussed was the recent efforts of Barbara Boyer, group
organizer, in the establishment of a
grant program for NonTraditionals. n
Other topics were also brought
up concerning these students' and
ways of helping to make their
college stay like anyone else.

1. A publication of a newsletter
to keep these students aware of
campus events and programs of
particular interest to older students.
2. to establish a "buddy system"
to provide support for those unfamiliar with the ins and outs of
returning or beginning college.
3. to use the experience of career
change or older students in a peer
counseling program.
4. to provide a representative in
student government through the
Representative Assembly.
5. to seek and support persons in
the Community who are considering a career change or return
to college.
The next meeting was not set, but
all suggestions will be appreciated.
These suggestions can be put in
KUB Box 3266.

Letters

"Wimp Rock"
Disgusts Punker

Dear Editor,
This letter is written by a socalled "punker" and directed to the
traditionalists. First of all I don't
have a mohawk or wear safety pins
through my cheek, but I do like
some types of "punk" rock. What's
wrong with "punk" rock? This type
of music has the energy and insight
that has been lacking in music.
Wimp rock such as Duran Duran
and Adam Ant has stagnated our
music. What we need is another
punk revolution that occurred in
the 70's.
You speak of yourself as
traditionalists. Does this mean you
listen to traditional rock'n roll bands? Meaning music based on the
founders of rock'n roll such as
Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley. The
Clash's first concert tour was supported by none other than Bo Diddley.
How many "inane" Clash concerts have you been at to be able to
judge them? I also see: na .con1.

We've all heard about as much as we can take about the commons and
its "food." But now, the commons has gone "mechanized." They now
have machines that do everything from dispensing bread to measuring
out your early morning Froot Loops or Cap'n Crunch. But why would the
commons spend all that money for contraptions that seem to have no apparent purpose except for saving milliseconds of time expended by commons workers. The bread dispenser, though ingenious, (I wonder if its inventor is living in Aruba on the royalties?), dispenses stale bread. I think
the bread would have remained semi-fresh if it had been kept in its plastic
wrapper. And the cereal dispenser ! (Another rich inventor ho doubt!) Do
they realize how much cereal is wasted by the time a bright, dean's list,
college student figures out how to work the device? And I noticed that
these cereals will not be removed for the lunch and dinner meals. That is
to the joy of some, at least now they will have something to eat on the
nights that the choices are liver and the ever-drainable spaghetti. But
that means that the cereal will be kept out for days upon end. Does
anyone know if cereal can turn green? Oh, I almost forgot the ice
machine! It dispenses ice half of the time, but is not able to produce ice.
The commons (these poor guys are under constant bombardment) ,
should put this money to better use in improving food quality and not look
for new ways to seemingly delight its college customers. We're not that
easily amused !

hection between the ideologies of
Devo and The Clash. The idea of
basing a political party on any
band's ideologies is ludicrous.
What I mean is that The Clash have
a viable statement that can effect
any person no matter what their
political party is. I am sure you
traditionalists would enjoy the dance music of the '84 debate (good
comparison ) , but not me.
I guess,, it's okay for you
traditionalists to call us names
(punkers ) but as soon as the
punkers call you names that's
childish.
Thank You
the disappointed Clash fan
(alias Sid Vicious' brother )

Dear Editor,
What is becoming of Bloomsburg? It looks like a giant angry
mole has hit us, and it looks like he
* is«iovihg" i#f ofe the^duratiohV^What^

is all the construction going on for?
I know some of it has to do with
laying drainage pipes for the new
fields at Nelson. Well, why weren't
we informed about it ahead of time.
They close a different road on campus every day so that driving is
next to impossible. It also aleviates
some of the critically needed
parking spaces. Why couldn't the
construction have been planned to
occur at a less hectic time on campus? It also looks very bad. I used
to be proud of our pampus , but now

I even regreted bringing my
siblings here to see the mess. I
guarantee that as soon as the
students leave after finals so will
the tractors and trailers and
bulldozers. That's just the way it
always happens. I would recommend that whoever plans the construction on campus take a little bit
more time doing so in the future.

'.; So that you may be prepared for
the upcoming moves this summer,
Don McCulloch , Director of
Physical Plant, is making boxes
available at the Housekeeping Office in the Bookstore near the
loading dock" (Fred Cleaver 's office) . You may pick them up there
between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.
Those individuals moving to the
Human Services Center should
pack all materials and equipment
to be relocated. No furniture will be
moved to the Human Services Center. Those planning on moves to
other buildings should unload all
desks, files, cabinets, bookcases,
etc. that are to be moved and box
all materials. Also, the architect is
in the process of renumbering the
rooms in the Human Services Center and you will be sent a renumbered floor plan if you will be occupying that building.
Please mark all boxes ac-

cordingly. Everything that is to be
moved should be clearly labeled
with the following informationyour name, your department or
division, building (to which it is to
be moved) , room number and-or
name (to which it is to be moved) .
The University expects to employ services of a professional
mover since the magnitude of the
moving this summer is beyond the
scope of our grounds crew. McCulloch anticipated moves will
begin at the end of July or the
beginning of August since the
Phase II work for the Human Services Center will be completed on
or about July 20. It is important
tha t all your materials be packed
and ready to go, particularly if you
will not be on campus this summer.
If you have any questions, do not
hesitate to call McCulloch at extension 4321. Thanks in advance for
your help and cooperation.

Open Trade

Talks to reach an unprecedented
free-trade agreement between the
United States and Israel are going
much smoother than anyone ever
thought possible. American sources say the two countries are less
than a month away from signing a
treaty. It would enable Reagan to
send it to Congress for ratification
before the fall election. The only
question that needs to be answered
is how soon can Israeli industry
and agriculture oe expected to be
fully open to competition from
America. "Both countries want a
deal as soon as possible, " says a
senior U.S. trade negotiator. "Can
you image how Congress would
respond to a treaty like this in an
election year?"

Ron 's Book
Ronald Reagan has a" new book
out that is 95 pages long and is entitled "Abortion and the Conscience of; the Nation." Reagan's
anti-abortion plea covers no new
ground and he urges the nation to
choose the "sanctity of life" over
the "quality of life." Thomas
Nelson , the world's largest
publisher of Bibles, says it has
already shipped 200,000 copies to
bookstores and is rushing 50,000

more into print. "It should make
the best-seller list any day now,"
says executive editor Larry Stone.

Nuke Sub ?

Five reports from airplanes en
route from Tokyo to Anchorage all
stated the same thing. At 5 a.m. on
April 9, their crews spotted a huge
mushroom cloud 180 miles off the
coast of Japan. It was said to be
grayish and rapidly expanded to an
altitude of almost 60,000 feet. The
first to sight came from a crew
aboard a JAL cargo plane commanded by an American former B52 pilot. The crew was told to put on
oxygen masks. The cloud may have
been an explosion aboard a Soviet
nuclear sub, but still remains a
mystery.

Shooting For Yom
Career Goals

AMY ZAKRZEWSKI
One of the biggest worries of
college students today is finding a
job when they graduate. Much can
be done prior to, and during, application for a job to improve chances, according to Shell Lundahl
from the Center for Counseling and
Human Development, Bloomsburg
University, she spoke informally
Monday night to a group of
sociology and psychology majors .
"Be creative. Look ahead. Make
contacts and try to generate as
much information as possible
about the position for which you 're
applying,'' Lundahl said.
Because of today 's tight job
market, competition is high. Unlike
the late 60's and early 70's when the
economy was good, she said
today 's graduates see a lot of
closed doors.
To overcome the obstacles that
come between applicants and jobs,
students have to first contact an
employer and then make a good
enough impression to be bird, according to Lundahl.
To find prospective places of employment, Lundahl said, "Contact
relatives, friends, other people in
the field. Send out resumes
everywhere,'' she said.
Applicants should become
familiar with the place they intend
to work. They should research
background through anything
available — newspapers ,
brouchures, people. Applicants
should show interest in a position
by contacting management and
just by talking to anyone available,
such as a secretary, according to
Lundahl.
"There aren't many people who

won't feel complimented to talk
about what they do,"she said.
She said that applicants should
keep in touch with a company after
the - initial contact. "Just because
they 're not hiring is no reason to
stop communicating. Something
could always come up. "
Volunteering is a good way to get
a foot in the door.
"Always be willing to volunteer.
A good time to start is while you're
in school, not only for the experience but also for the recommendaitons that will then be
available and the chance to learn
the lingo when applying for a
position later," she said.
Interviews don't have to be
traumatic. "I look at an interview
as me interviewing them as much
as them interviewing me. Ask-the
question 'What do you have to offer
me?' It's a good idea to go through
interviews just to find out what
they're like — just for practice
even if you don't really want the
j ob,"Lundahl said.
"Do your homework before an interview. For example, know the
salary range," she said.
Lundahl added, "I wouldn't
necessarily let 'experience only'
stop me. I also wouldn't hesitate to
compete against people with higher
degrees. If you can do the work and
you show them that you can , you
have a fair chance at the job. ''
People constantly seek higher
positioned jobs. Once a certain job
is secured, Lundahl has more advice.
' Think ,in terms of when am I
going1 to leave the job. Have some
idea of how long you intend to stay.
Be ready to start looking toward
your next goal, '' she said.

Frog Flipping was but one of many games and events to occupy the public on Saturday at Bloomsburg's
annual Renaissance Jamboree.

Freshman s no-

shows' under fire

Campus Digest News Service

Late cancellations by freshmen
hoping to keep their options open until the last minute have resulted in
planning difficulties for college admissions officials and tougher policies
tor new f reshmen.
The student trend toward submitting deposits at several colleges makes
planning decisions for freshman
classes difficult , often denying spaces
to other applicants on waiting lists.
"Far too many students leave this
business of doing their homework on
selection of a college to the last
minute," says Fred Hargadon , dean
of admissions at Stanford University.
(Hargadon will become senior vice
president for administration of the
College Board on September 1.)
Some students even attend multiple
summer orientation sessions and plan
out several class schedules before
making a final decision .

cancellations and resulting * costs.-At
the University of Richmond , deposits
of $250 in 1980 and 1981 doubled in
1982. Richmond's 20 forfeits in 1980
jumped to 60 in 1981 and dropped to
40 in 1982.
Some colleges are taking collective
action against increasing no-shows.
The Consortium on Financing Higher
Education , comprised of 30 rather
selective private schools (mostly
eastern), reserves the right to deny
admission to applicants caught making definite enrollment commitments
to more than one college at once.
The COFHE has adopted several
policies to help decrease the number
of last-minute cancellations. Included
in those policies are a May 1deSdline
for replying to the college (except,!or
students waiting on financial ; aid
notification), earlier decisions on
freshman waiting lists (July 1) and affirmation in writing by potential
freshmen of their single college
choice.
Unfortunatel y for most colleges,
about the onlyway to discover multiple acceptances is by exchanging lists
¦ .'->>> ;¦
with other institutions. '
Late decisions appear , to affect the.

and Yale university officials report
having little trouble filling cancellation spots in freshman classes with

Cbirti ^eiiB Contra^epfcrn

- JOHN STAMAN
Features Editor

Spring has finally arrived. Since
lis season has been traditionally
ibeled as the season for lovers, it
aems appropriate that the new
Today" contraceptive sponge has
nally become available at local
harmacies. The sponge was
riginally due to make its debut in
le continental United States in
fovember, 1983. However, both the
'ood arid Drug Administration
FDA ) regulations and public skepicism delayed its release.
The two-inch round polyurethane
ushion is saturated with
onoxynol-9, a spermicide found in
lany jells and, contraceptive
evices. Basically, the sponge
hould be moistened with liquid
nd then squeezed in the fingers unil slightly foamy and then imilanted over the cervix. The
ponge is removed with an atiched loop and will not fall out
uring sexual activity.
The sponge may stay in place
ver the cervix for a 24-hour period
ut should be left in place a full six
ours after the last act of insrcourse. This makes it possible to
nplant the sponge severalJiours
rior to intercourse and then riot
ave to worry about it until the next
ay. An instruction sheet is inluded in each "Today" package
ontaining the tasteless and
dorless sponge(s).
Barbara Riegel, Registered
'harmacist, Moyer Pharmacy,
Bloomsburg, believes that the
sponge "is the contraceptive of
omorrow, if it is used correctly."
ttegel said, "We haven't sold any
ret , but this is mostly because the
?DA had held it back at first, plus,
: don't think the public knows
hey're available."
The sponge has been conroversial for the last several
fears, the problem centering
iround its safety. The sponge's
nanufacturer, the VLI ^proration, i Irvine, Calif , has done
^ears of testing to insure the safety
ind effectiveness of the sponge.
Che FDA has also done its share of
esting .
Though some feel that the spernicide, 'in correlation with the
iponge's manufacturing process,
nay cause Toxic Shock Syndrome
TSS), the VLI Corp. defends the
ponge with i the fact that
ionoxynol-9 has been in use for
>yer 20 years with -relatively no
)robleiris .aside from a.small per:entage' of allergic reactions and
nfections.
il , ;
Although there have been four
:ases of TSS in women who have

used the sponge, no direct proof has
turned up linking the cause to the
"Today"sponge.
' "Whether or not TSS is due to the
use of misuse of the sponge is* not
clear yet. More documentation is
needed," said Donald A. Remaly,
M:D. Dr. Remaly suspects improper .use may have caused the
TSS cases, stating that some
women may riot follow the instructions property, don't wash
their hands or may leave the
sponge on a dirty counter top prior
to use.
"It's not as if the sponge causes
TSS, but it is a possibility,
especially with regard to the length
of time it is in place," added
Remaly. "The sponge may have
been misused in three of the four
cases and the women may have
been using tampons or other TSS
causing devices at the time. They
have estimated that over 400,000
women are now using the sponge
and I don't feel four possible instances out of 400,000 women make
a case. There are simply too many
other factors ."
Dr. Remaly said that although
there hasn't been a great deal
about the sponge in medical journals, from all the tests he has read,
he has found it to be just as effective as either the condom or the
diaphram.
"I still think it's a viable alternative as far as barrier contraception is concerned and I would
definitely advise the patient not to
exceed the time allotted for use,"
said Remaly. "I would also advise
those who intend to use it to
familiarize themselves with the
early symptoms of TSS, strictly as
a precautionary measure." The
early symptoms consist of nausea,
fever and headache similar to
those experienced with a common
viral infection.
Robert A. Siegel, M.D., Bloomsburg, believes "the sponge is not
quite fully accepted yet. The
failure rate is higher than that of
the diaphram and I won't fully
recommend it until I receive additional information on the
product's side effects and efficiency."
However , Siegel said, "I
wouldn't be worried as much about
the sporige as I would with the pill
where you're tampering with your
body chemistry."
Ken Miller, Registered Pharmacist, Eppley Pharmacy, Bloomsburg, sees the sponge as a worthwhile form of contraception and
is carrying it in his store. "We
received a letter from the company
saying that they were, no longer,
concerned with the danger of ;TSS,I \

Miller said.
The opening paragraph of the letter from VLI reads: "The purpose
of this letter is to emphasize that
the Food and Drug Administration
(FDA), The Centers for Disease
Control (CDC) and VLI have
established that there is no direct
relationship between Toxic Shock
Syndrom (TSS) events and the use
of the Today Vaginal Contraceptive
Sponge."
The letter added that this conclusion was based on seven years of
extensive laboratory and clinical
(human) research and that, in fact,
the sponge contains an "antimicrobial ingredient" which kills
the bacteria , Staphylococcus
aureus, associated with TSS.
VLI concluded that it has been
monitoring the reaction to the
sponge by consumers and
professionals through various sources, including a toll-free hotline
(800) 223-2329. VLI claimed,
"Despite recent events, consumers
have continued to express interest
i and confidence in the product.''
Paul Miller, Registered Pharmacist, Rea arid Derick Pharmacy, Bloomsburg, said, "Since it
has received FDA approval ,, it

must be safe. We don't currently
carry it," said Miller. "However if
our customers express an interest
in the product, we would then make
it available to them."
—Although the sponge is still
relatively new and thus still unaccepted by most women, its shaky
beginning seems to be behind it as
people are starting to use the
product. "We only sold one or two
the first week," said Ken Miller,
"but sales have really picked up.
They're selling much better now
that the people know about it."
Swanee Marcus, Registered Nurse and Practitioner, Columbia
Montour Family Planning, Bloomsburg, stated, "We're dispensing
the sponge to patients who ask for it
but are not recommending it due to
the cost factor . We are warning
users to follow the directions
carefully .
"Women will ask me what types
of contraception are available to
them," stated Dr. Remaly, "and
when I mention those available, I
will certainly include the sponge."
As with anything else, all
stressed that the sponge must be

England. Unlike the last World's Fair
in 1967, which was a universal fair ,
New Orlean 's is a' special. The difference involves size and frequency;
universal fairs are larger (350 acres or

MARY HASSENPLUG

j The Bloomsburg University softfall te^m, heavy favorites to win
m PSAC Crown, took aim on their
foal as they swept a doubleheader
rom Shippensburg last Friday by
he scores of 5-0 and 8-2.
Deb Long was the hitting star for
he Huskies as she was four for
even at the plate as well as scoring
tie game winning run in the first
ame. The Huskies did manage to
ilate four more runs just for inurance. Tina Souders pitched the
irst game and recorded the three
lit shutout to raise her record to 9. Anne Schmidt was three for four
vith a double in an impressive efort in game one.
BU spotted the Red Raiders a run
n the first top of the game,but
ame back with some balanced
icoring. They tallied one of their
»wn in the bottom of the first ;
:cored three in the second, one in
he third, two in the fourth, and
mother in the sixth to easily win
he contest. Deb Long was again
he hitting star as she went 2-4 with
i triple and a run scored, in the
lightcap.
NOTES: The Huskies' record is
IOW 23-2. BU downed East Stroudburg twice in a double-header on
'hursday. The first game was a 1, 16 inning affair. Jean Millen
omered to win the game. Tina
Souders pitched 10 perfect innings
md ended up with 18 strikouts and
5ave up only 4 hits. The second
Jarrie was another shutout, this
ime behind the one-hit pitching of
>ue Kocher. Millen again hit a
tomer, this time a three run blast.
By sweeping a doubleheader
rom West Chester, the softball
|eam clinched the number one seed
a the Pennsylvania Conference
Championships this weekend by
emaining undefeated in the
Eastern Division. The Huskies
>oosted their overall record to 25-2
md their Eastern Division log to
' 0-0.

The twinbill was highlighted by
outstanding pitching by Tina
Souders, the veteran two-time AllAmerican. Souders finessed her
way to a no-hitter while striking out
eight. The BU senior missed *a perfect game, but was forced to contend with inconsistent ball-strike
calls from the home plate umpire
who issued one walk. Souders
relied on her bread and butter pitch, the riser, to frustrate the Lady
Rams as all but one putout was by
pop fly.
Only one batter could get the ball
on the ground but a fine defensive
stab by shortstop Annie Schmidt
kept the ball from scooting
through.
The Husky bats were noticeable
quiet through the first three frames
before BU put together a string of
hits to bring in two runs. Schmidt ,
and Jean Millen both singled and
came around to score on a towering
double to deep center by catcher
Denise Henderson. In the seventh,
Kathy Behan singled and advanced
on Carolyn Harley's sacrifice. A
WC miscue allowed Behan to plate
the final run in the 3-0 win.
In the second game, the Husky
bats exploded, pounding out 17 hits

stright shutout. Susan Kocher earned the win with an impressive
showing, striking out seven while
giving up just two hits. She also
helped her own cause by belting a
triple and a single.

again Millen. The power hitting first baseman drove in five runs with
a double and two singles. Freshman Kate Denneny and Karen Hertzler each knocked in two runs
while Deb Long and Schmidt each
had a pair of hits.
BU bolted to a 4-0 lead in the first

game out of reach by scoring there
in the sixth and four more in the
final frame.

With the weather finally
cooperating with sunny, 80 degree
temperatures, the BU netmen (118) turned in back to back shoutouts
in a Friday doubleheader . The
Huskies utilized nine straight set
victories to whitewash Scranton in
the opening contest; then returned
to blank conference foe Shippensburg under the lights.
Scranton
The visiting Royals were simply
overpowered by the young Huskies
who were led by Rob Lario's 55th
career victory and shoutout wins
by Scott Gibbs and Jere Bird.
Lario (8-11) rode a blistering
backhand to a 6-1, 6-1 drubbing of
Mark Nixon at number two for his
milestone win. Playing his best tennis in several matches, the BU
junior was broken in the opening
game but recovered to reel off six
straight games enroute to the win.
The bottom of the lineup made
shortwork of their opponents as
Gibbs (9-6) was too much for Bernie King ; while Bird (11-5) , suffering from a heavy cold , crunched
Rich Jenkins.
Number one Tim Mitchell (940)
outslugged Paul Wysocki 6-3, 6-2 in
a battle of the baseliners that saw
nearly every point go into a long
rally. Such was not the case at the
third slot, where Mike Penny (10-7)
used an overpowering serve and
volley game to whip Brian Nixon 62, 6-1.
The only BU player who was
even threatened was Scott Grebe
(13-6) who was forced into a first
set tiebreaker by John Vinci. The
Royals player continually
frustrated Grebe by catching
several netcords combined with
some outstanding shots. Gerbe

managed to survive the opening se
7r6 (7-4) to go into to rout Vinci ii
<
the second 6-1.
Coach Burt Reese kept Ms toj
doubles team of Lario Gibbs
together for the second segment
Bird combined with Stevi
Augustine for a win at two an(
Chris Antipas and Jeff Dadowsk
recorded the other win.
Shippensburg
BU scored their 33rd consecutivt
PSAC win and seventh victory ii
their past nine matches fr
chalking up a 9-0 win over the Re<
Raiders in the nitecap. Like Scran
ton, Shippensburg could give jus
one Husky player a contest, tha
being Lario at number two; while
the remaining Huskies scored easj
straight set wins.
After winning the first set 6-1
Lario appeared to be cruising
however to key double faults lei
Mike Kessle back into the matcl
after the Raider battled to a 7-!
second set win. Lario came back t(
break Kessel's serve in the fourtl
and sixth games of the thirc
culminating with a crosscoun
backhand winner to take¦ the¦ matcl

6-1.

Mitchell looked superb in winning his third straight match 6-0, 60 overr a bewildered Doug Rakoczy. Fellow Gibbs won in similar
style 6-0, 6-0, allowing SU's Jerry
Regan to win three points in just
one game.
Number four Grebe kept his winning streak intact at six in a row
and eight of nine by beating Eric
Weitzel by 6-2 scores.
Mike Penny had a very good first
set in downing Mark Evans 6-0, but
tried to play over his head as the
second set opened and got into
minor trouble before settling down
