Special Olympics

Fun for everyone

CATHY DESKO
Staff Writer
Mentally retarded children are
participating in the Special Olympics program at Bloomsburg
University for six week this
semester. The sessions started Oct.
13.
Cheryl Sunshine, a sophomore
majoring in Special Education is a
coordinator of the program. Sunshine said that the Special Olympics are held in Centennial Gym on
Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. until
noon.
Sunshine remarked that the
children are "high functioning
mentally retarded " individuals
who are slow learners, and some of
them need "constant one-on-one attention." The children's ages range

"They 're kids first, they just
happento havea handicap."
from five to 18, Sunshine said.
"They're kids first , they just happen to have a handicap."
The Special Olympics are
basically "training sessions" for
the participants, Sunshine noted.
The children take part in activities
such as basketball , swimming,

kickball, and aerobics.
"It's two hours of recreation for
the kids," Sunshine said. A lot of
them don't get out much."
Approximately 50 to 60 handicapped youngsters attend the
sessions, Sunshine said. The
children are.brought to the gym by
their parents or by vans provided
by the state.
College students drive the vans
and transport the children from
Berwick, Danville, Millville,
Nescopeck, and Bloomsburg to the
college campus.
Although 110 students are signed
up to help with the Special Olympics on campus, Sunshine said,
"We're always looking for more "
Not all the volunteers go to each
session, so there is usually a one-toone ratio between volunteers and
children.
She added that male volunteers
are needed because "the kids look
up to the big college guys." Sunshine said that anyone who wants
to help with the Special Olympics
program should simply come to
one of the future sessions at 9:30
a.m .
Sunshine commented that

Most student programs in the
past decade were developed to
provide help for the academically
deprived, but the new Honors
Program in the College of the Arts
and Sciences that will start next
fall aims to change that. The
program, an idea of Dr. Al Forsyth,
dean of the College of Arts and
Sciences at Bloomsburg University , is designed for the
academically gifted student.
It provides a structure in which
the student can work independently, creatively and
responsibly according to Dr.
Howard Schreier , one of the
organizers of the program.
The program has three divisions
— humanities, natural sciences
and social sciences — and will include seven to nine hours of ad-

vanced work. Any student wishing
to participate in the program must
maintain a minimum grade point
average of 3.0 and have the recommendation of his or her department.
The student will submit a letter
of application outlining his or her
purposes and plans for independent
study to the Honors Committee
during the fall term of the junior
year. There are. three honors committees, one from each division,
whose responsibilities will be to
hold
general information
workshops for potential students,
to choose the students accepted into the program, and to approve the
topics chosen for the seminars ( except for the Natural Sciences).

department, Dr. Marjorie Clay of
the philosophy department, and Stu

Any student living on campus
this semester should plan to live
there next semester . Students who
signed a lease to live on campus
are not going to be allowed to cancel that contract , according to Jennie Carpenter , d irector of Residence Life. She said there are many
reasons for this decision.
Every student who went through
the housing lottery last spring
signed a legal contract for one
academic year. They were also
given lottery instructions. These instructions stated that it is important to note that signing a
Residence Hall Contract is a commitment for the entire 1984-85
academic year. Students who sign
the contract will be required to
honor the contract unless they are
officially released by the Residence Life Office , arid should not go
through the lottery unless they intend to remain on campus for both

semesters. This statement was
placed in the instructions so
students would be aware of their
commitment.
Some students who sign the
housing contracts do not read them
or do not take them seriously, according to Carpenter. "Students
don't consider the lease they sign
with the university as serious as
one they might sign with a landlord, and they think they can get
out of it. But these contracts are
legal and just as serious as any
other one," she said.
Also, approximately 42 students
who planned to attend Bloomsburg
University and live on campus did
not come. This lowered the number
of people living on campus. The 25
to 30 students who withdrew also
decreased the number of students
living on campus. The number of
on-campus students leaving in
January would lower the amount of
off-campus housing available.

t Every calculated side glance of the eye, every signal ; verbal or nonI verbal or every crib-sheet surreptitiously tucked away within convenient
eye range during an exam will fall under penalty of the new cheating and
plagiarism policy.
In the process of being approved by the Representative Assembly, the
new policy will be more complete in its wording as to what cheating and
plagiarism are and how they will be dealt with. The current policy has
many ambiguous statements that need clarifying.
It is unfortunate that students' conduct forced the university administration to add specific amendments to the existing policy. By the
time a person has reached college level, he should be responsible and
mature enough to know what cheating and plagiarism are and able to
leave such petty acts behind in his high school days.
The act of cheating or plagiarizing is accomplished in so few seconds ,
ut the ramifications of either are very far-reaching.
°
Under new and old policies , punishment for cheating and plagiarism
can range from a written or oral reprimand from the instructor to expulsion from the university.
It is crucial for a student to ask himself if the short-term satisfaction of
cheating is really worth the consequences. To jeopardize one's college
career to the point of expulsion from school is hardly worth a false A on
any exam or paper.
The student who is patting himself on the back for getting away with his
dishonest escapades , will never win any intelligence awards. These
students are only hurting themselves because in the real world there is no
one but themselves to rely on for "answers". If they chea t or plagiarize ,
they will not be prepared to be their own decision makers .
College is the only place where students can exercise most absolute
freedom to learn and create. By cheating or plagiarizing , a student may
not realize His intellectual and creative potential because he is stiffling it
by using someone else's thoughts and ideas .
Acadmic dishonesty will never disappear , but we hope , with this new
policy students will be more aware of how seriously cheating and
plagiarizing can affect his academic career.

Switching from academe to business
Campus Digest News Service

With a decreasing number of jobs
and the current glut of teachers in the
college setting, some people are leaving—or actively considering leaving—their careers in academe for
positions in the business world.
A group of collegiate professors
and administrators met recently in
Warrenton ,- Va., with other members
of the Professional and Organizational Development Network .
For those who make the switch , a
transition must be made. Neither side
really understands the other , which
often brings on defensive " stances
from former teachers, said Charles
Farmer , former , mathematics professor at the University of Tulsa , now
senior eng ineering specialist ; at
General Dynamics in . Fort Worth ,
Texas. A lack of. privacy and loss of
individuality can also be problems
associated with working in large
firms.
. '
!
When discussing- the ' changes they
¦ had made, several of the teachers
(and former teachers);had suggestions
for others looking into;hew careers.

Valuable advice also may be as
close as the office next door. Michael
Crump, director of human resources
Kline
& French
at S m it h
Laboratories, suggests talking to ex-.
tension and adjunct faculty members
about career concerns, asking them
about the job market; many of them
have other jobs outside academe.
Above all , do your homework
first. Some major changes will have
to be made when writing resumes and
cover letters for the business world.
While college search committees are
interested in long, descriptive
resumes detailing all educational experiences, their hiring counterparts in
business want an ego-less resume,
said Farmer. Hiiler added that
businesses are interested primarily in
,¦
the bottom line—productivity.
Crump stressed not listing educa- I
tional accomplishments at the top of
the resume, and a detailed list of\
publications is necessary onl y if one is
applying for a research job. A concise resume, though somewhat painful to edit , is what business people are
looking for; the same advice pertains
to cover letters and answers to interviewing questions.
If , for some reason , it . seems obvious at the interview that you 're not
under consideration , ask, what you

A smorgasbord, music, and a
good time are all part of the
Program 's Board' s Fall Extra vangaza, which will be held on
Friday, Nov. 9, at the Sheraton Inn
in Danville.
"Fall Extravaganza is a semiformal dinner dance, " said Jimmy
Gilliland, advisor to the Program
Board. He added that this event
will give those people not involved
in an organization that has a
similar function a chance to go to a
dinner, dance, and have a good
time.
Kenny Roberts is the coordinator
of the event, which he said is open
to the entire campus. The price will
be $8 a person or $16 a couple. This
includes a buffet dinner, which will
feature a variety of meats ,
vegetables, breads, salads, and
desserts. Roberts said, "This is a
lot cheaper than a fraternity,
sorority or dormitory date party. "
He added that there are still spaces
available for more people to sign
up to attend. Anyone who is interested in this event should sign up
at the Information Desk in the
Union by noon on Thursday^ Nov. 8.
There will be a limit of two tickets
per student I.D.
Transportation to the Sheraton
will be provided by school.buses.
Buses will pick people up in front of

Elwell Hall at 5:30 p.m. They will
start to return to campus from the
Sheraton at 12 a.m.
The buffet dinner will last from 6
p.m. ' to 8 p.m. A .Bloomsburg
University student will be the
featured disc jockey and will
provide a variety of dance music
until 1 a.m., when the event ends.
There will also be a photographer
who will take pictures for any interested couple or person from 6
p.m. to 7 p.m. The pictures will be
$6. This price includes two 5-by-7
and four wallet-size pictures. Door
prizes will also be given away.
Roberts believes in the theory of
ahigh risk theh high return." He
said that the Program Board took a
chartce with this same event last
spring, only is was called Spring
Extravanganza. It was successful
last spring ; 125 people took advantage of it. Roberts-decided that
it would be a good idea to offer the
event again this semester ;
however, he hopes to have an even
larger turnout this time compared
to last time.
Roberts will host the campuswide event, and plans to wear a
black tuxedd'with gray pinstripes.
No one else has to dress so extravagantly, semi-formal dress is
fine. Roberts added, "No one needs
a date to attend, just come and
have a good time."

Summer Scheduling

DAVID DECOTEAU
Staff Writer
"This summer every course offerd at BU will run regardless of
how many students sign up for it,"
said Dr. Daniel C. Pantaleo, acting
Associate Vice President of
Academic Affairs.
According to Dr. Pantaleo, the
university was forced to revise the
summer school format due to a
sudden decrease in enrollment and
pressure by budgeting officials in
Harrisburg for less individualized
instruction.
Pantaleo said, "Of the 14 state
universities that offer a summer
program, Bloomsburg has had the
greatest enrollment for the past
seven years. However, last
semester Bloomsburg lost 480 summer school students, that is the
equivalent of loosing 161 full time
students or 2,427 credit hours;"
Dr. Pantaleo feels that this
decrease in summer school
enrollment can be attributed to the
students' unwillingness tb gamble
on courses that are offered during
the summer, coupled with hard
financial times for students.
To counter the falling summer
school enrollment, Dr. Pantaleo

asked.. each professor submitting
summer school courses to offer
only the courses with greatest
enrollment.
According to Dr. Pantaleo this
means that initially fewer classes
will be offered this summer than
were offered last summer;
however, this summer students can
sign up for classes without fear of
their classes being canceled.
The only classes that are not
guaranteed are classes which have
certain mandatory enrollment
numbers in order to meet financial
responsibilities. Only five to eight
courses will fall into this category,
all of which are either overseas or
field trip courses., and they will be
designated as special courses.

A Hint of Christmas

DARLA DeLUCA
Staff Writer
Downtown Bloomsburg merchants are ready for Christmas and
have been for weeks.
Records and Jeanswear
manager, Bruce Musser, said he
ordered items in June to make sure
he had a sufficient supply for
Christmas.
"There are a lot of major music
stars with albums out now, so I
think albums will be a very popular
gift this year," said Musser.

Woodruff , added authenticity to the
play. The set, designed by Bill
O'Donnell, helped people to see the
unreal world that Amanda and
Laura lived in, and that Tom

The idea of going on sabbatical
conjures up pictures of vacations
and relaxation in many student's
minds. The professors who are
going on sabbatical during the
spring or fall semester prove this
common myth wrong. They are
using this time as an opportunity to
enhance their knowledge.
Dr. Gerald Strauss, professor of
English, is approved for sabbatical
leave for next semester with full
pay. Dr. Strauss will travel to
England to do a study on John
Drinkwater. . Drinkwater is an
English dramatist and poet who at
one time was as well known as
Masfield and Kipling. Drinkwater's popularity was highest
during the 1920's and 1930's. He is
credited for being an actor, director, and a poet.
Strauss' study will be of Drinkwater's dramas with a focus on
Civil War characters . Drinkwater's most popular play was
Abraham Lincoln for which he also
wrote the book.
Dr. Strauss will not be living in
England. After his trip is completed, he will visit research
libraries that carry Drinkwater's
papers. Dr. Strauss's research will
serve as professional development .

Glass Menagerie

An Unreal World

Dim lighting and soft music set
the stage for the opening performance of Tennessee Williams'
"The Glass Menagerie" by the
Bloomsburg Players last week in
Carver Hall.
Set during the 1930's, they play
dealt with a family of three, a gentleman caller, and the problems
each of them had. Laura Wingfield
(Mary Yodzio) is a shy and slightly
disabled girl. She lives amid the
continual conflicts caused by her
mother Amanda Wingfield (Gail
Lynch) , a domineering, henpecking woman, and her brother
Tom (Jeffrey Morgan), a young
man eager to leaves his home and
look for adventure.
Laura , who is unable to enable to
continue at business school, stays
at home, listens to the old victrola ,
and takes care of her collections —
a glass menagerie. After realizing
Laura had no future in the business
world, Amanda decides to find her
daughter a husband. Amanda
finally persuades Tom to bring a
gentleman caller, Jim O'Conner
( Greg Weiss) from the warehouse
home for dinner. Laura soon
discovers that her gentleman
caller is the man she secretly loved
in high school. However, in the end,
Jim helps Laura to gain selfconfidence and encourages her to
be or do whatever she wants to.
Hitoshi Sato, director of the play,
did a wonderful job in molding the
actors' and actress' very convincing performance. One could
relate to Tom's yearning to be out
of the house looking for adventure,
or Laura 's overwhleming shyness
and lack of confidence. The

Pro Audio Shop said they are
going to start advertising for
Christmas next week. They are ,
however, in the Christmas spirit
with their decorated interior . Pro
Audio has been so busy with Christmas shoppers they did not even run
their regular anniversary sale this
year. November seems to always
be a slow month for sales of stereo
equipment and other larger items ,
but November and December are
the busiest time for albums, tapes
and accessories.
Most people . . who go into Pro
Audio are, people looking at how
they will spend their own Christmas money rather than spending
on gifts for someone else.
A lot of Citizen Band radios
(C.B. 's) have been sold already
and they are usually one of the
most wanted gift items at Pro
Audio around Christmas time.

Other gifts expected to be
popular are clothing considered
"outrageous" for Bloomsburg.
New style fads seem to start
around the Christmas season
because many people buy them at
the same time. Ocean Pacific shorts and T-shirts, which normally do
not go fast in the winter months,
are big sellers at Christmas time.
"The most popular clothing items
at Christmas are ones which people
would not go out and buy everyday.

While the downtown Woolworth 's
said they will hot get any this year,
Sears said they have only a limited
supply.
Woolworth^s manager explains
there is such a demand for Cabbage Patch Kids, only the larger
Woolworth's stores will get them.
Last year, however, they did
manage to get a couple dozen and
sold them all the same day. \
A Sears worker said the Cabbage

The Sears Christmas catalog
went out in September. It includes
items such as jewelry boxes and
particular toys they sell only for
Christmas. Orders for these items
have been coming in since the
catalog went out.

For Sears, the spirit of Christmas
started weeks ago with their red
and green decorations throughout
the store and Christmas trees
already on display.

For those students wishing to
decorate their rooms or apartments, The Cat House, located in
the Small Mall on Main Street, is
selling handmade straw wreaths,
tree ornaments and various other
Christmas decora tions. An employee said they can not make
straw wreaths fast enough for the
demand, They are very popular

All downtown merchants agree
that Christmas is their busiest time
of the year and customers started
shopping weeks ago. Most stores
have already started decorating,

the town of Bloomsburg. Streets
will be lit up and Santa Glaus will
be in his house eagerly listening to

The Program Board is a volunteer student organization which is made
up of committees that choose the events that take place during the
semester. The Board is advised by Jim Gilliland.
Each semester the Board likes to have between 20 and 23 films. To obtain these films, each member of the film committee lists five films he
thinks the students will be interested in viewing. Then Walt Roberts,
chairman of the film committee, submits a revised list of the advisor for
his approval. The maximum amount that is spent on each film is $800.
The committee talks to film companies to try to get package deals which
include a variety of current, foreign and classic films. Films will continue
to be shown on Tuesdays and Thursday nights along with commuter films
on Wednesday afternoons as has been done in the past two years.
Each semester one meeting of the executive board is designed just for
scheduling. The executive board knows what other events are taking
place on campus such as athletic and cultural events and tries to schedule
around them. Then it is up to the committee chairperson when he wants
each event to take place. Once the committee can schedule dates, the
planning for the rest of the semester can take place.
Spring semester 1985 has many events scheduled. These include:
—CollegeBowl-academic quiz competition.
—Annual Dance Mara thon-first weekend in February .
—Second Annual Winterfest - Feb. 7-10.
—Regional ACU-I recreation tournament for Feb. 15-17. The letter includes all schools in the surrounding area . They send their finalists here
with BU finalists for the regional tournament, and the winners will go on
to the national tournament.
—Movie madness month in April.
—Siblings weekend along with the Renaissance Jamboree in late April.
Gilliland stated, "If any student has any complaints, they have just as
much opportunity to be on the board and to do something about it: The
board is open to every student."
Every student is eligible to join the Program Board and can be on more
than one committee. For a chairperson or officer position, the student
must fill out an application , in the spring for the following year. Interviews with the outgoing officers, chairpersons and the advisors will
give insight into those they feel qualify for the new positions. Experience
on the Program as a committee member' helpsI to obtain a position. v

Orchestra to open

The Bloomsburg College-Community Orchestra , John Master conducting, will present its initial concert of the 1984-85 season in Haas
Auditorium, Sunday afternodn, Nov. 11, at 2j 30 p.m. Harriet Couch, an
opera singer with Manhattan Savoyards, and John Couch, a pianist and
instructor at Bloomsburg's, will be soloists with the orchestra .
The orchestra consists of 75 to 80 volunteer members, involving both
BU students and community members. The orchestra practices weekly
oh Monday evenings and members from as far as Harrisburg are devoted
participants in the orchestra.
Master, has chosen pieces by George Gershwin, Samuel Barber,
Howard Hanson, and John Philip Sousa, all of whom are American composers. Master has been with the University since 1971 and was originally
hired to create the orchestra . The concert program contains works such
as: Barber's "Adagio for Strings," Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue", and
Sousa's "Stars and Stripes Forever."
John Couch said, "Gershwin's music is a type of classic jazz , a different
level of music." Gershwin's music is more for vocals such as films and
plays like "Porgy and Bess". "It will be fun , it is not heavy classical
music," Couch said. "The concert will have a romantic overtone, the
music is notdisjointed or background music," Couch added. '
The concert will be the first concert using an acoustic shell made of
metallic sections. The new, high, reflective shell will help amplify and
develop the sound, making for an even more enjoyable performance. The
shell was donated by Mr, and Mrs. Marco Mitrani, patrons of the orchestra and owners of the Milco Corporation in Bloomsburg.
The admission is $3 but free for students and others with a Community
Activities card or Patron card. Tickets may be bought at the Kehr Union
information desk or at the door Sunday afternoon.

Housing Contracts

(Continued from Page 1)
Carpenter stated, "BU has the
lowest room and board cost out of
the 14 state institutions in Pennsylvania. If students were allowed
to break their housing, contracts,
the decrease of students living on
campus could result in higher room
and board costs.
"We had to turn away transfer
students who wanted to live on
campus because there wasn't
enough room," Carpenter explained. About 100 transfer students could not move on campus
because all the rooms were
assigned to students who contracted for one academic year to
live on campus.
Carpenter said that almost all

housing contracts ' are for one
academic year. "Half-year contracts are only for seniors who
know they will be student teaching
for one semester and have made
arrangements with the Residence
Life Office beforehand," she said.
"It is not that we are forcing all
students to live on campus, just
freshmen. We want freshmen to
live on campus for adjustment purposes," Carpenter explained. "If
we wanted to make students live on
campus we would make the
housing lottery manda tory, but the
housing lottery is voluntary. When
you make an obligation and sign a
lease, you have to live up to it ," added Carpenter.

BU students to perform

students will perform tonight at
8:00 p.m. in the President's
Lounge. Kris Kehr and Eddie
Woods will play acoustic guitars
and sing a combination of songs:
original, folk, and blues. Their
show will consist of two one-hour
sets.
Kehr and Woods have been
playing guitar together since last
year. Since then, they have become
close friends. This relationship is
apparent when they play; their
music can be spontaneous. Kehr
says, "We know how each other
plays." For this reason , the songs
they play are different each time

they play them.
Kehr and Woods will be playing
songs by such artists as James
Taylor and The Grateful Dead. The
songs they play that they did not
write themselves reflect the kind of
life they lead.
Woods writes most of the original
songs they play. He is an English
major, and feels this influences his
songwriting ability and helps him
to record his feelings. He says,
"My songs tell a lot about myself.''
Kehr is an art studio major, and
looks at his music as another form
of art. The backdrop for their performance will be two paintings
Kehr created. He placed his guitar
amplifiers on their backs and put

Mandatory Recycling
ROBERT FRANCIS
News Editor
This past summer, the town passed an ordinance requiring all residents
of the Bloomsburg area to recycle "any material of economic value."
According to Jim Deterick, the bookkeeper for Volunteer Recycling
Inc., the company that handle the materials, most people have been
cooperating. "There have not been any fines," says Deterick.
The materials that are recycled include : any "transparent or translucent container made of silica , sand,...or soda ash," thus defining most
glass. Paper, defined as any newsprint distributed on a daily or weekly
basis, grocery bags, and cardboard boxes. "We get a lot of pizza boxes
from up there ( the university ) ," Deterick said. Also, computer printout
paper, and computer tape is accepted "We take all cleanpaper," Deterick
said, "We take magazines, periodicals and even junk mail." They also
take steel and aluminum cans.
Deterick reminds us that they cannot take paper towels, or any other
used, disposible paper . They cannot take blue , black, or plate glass.
The company makes very little profit, if any. When they do make a
profit, the town gets 25 percent. Although they do have a staff of about six
people, most of the Saturday collections are done by volunteers. "We can
always use more volunteers," Deterick said. If you are interested in
helping out, they are located at 901 Patterson Drive, off Old Berwick
Road. They welcome any and all help.
By recycling, Deterick said, "We are not only saving our natural
resources, but We are helping to prevent more pollution and contamination of the Earth ."

A trip to the Final Four is the team's ultimate goal, according to
Chronister. He was disappointed that they missed the Final Four last
year. He thinks that the teams to beat in the PSAG will be Millersville,
Cheyney , and'Mansfield.
Chronister has a very good feeling about things this year, and he is
looking at things with an open mind. As far as a set starting lineup,
Chronister sta tes that he may be talking about someone else in a few
weeks. He says that the "cream will rise to the top" and that the truly
good players Will eventually assert themselves.
The Husky season starts on Nov. 24, away; at Slippery Rock University.
The Husky home opener will be Nov. 28 against LeMoyne College.

Intramural Corn e r

SCOTT JOHNSON
Staff Writer
Weightlifting has been a growing
activity in the lives of many
Americans. The interest in
weightlifting is also becoming
evident here on campus. It is not
uncommon to see both the free
weight and Nautilus rooms packed
with students working to get thenv
selves in shape.
October 24 brought about the
chance for more serious weightlifters to flex their muscles in a competitive way. The men's and
women's Intramural Bench Press
competition was held with 17 lifters
competing in four different
categories.
Kelly Brennan headed the
women's division with her first
press of 70 lbs. and worked her way
up to her peak of 80 lbs. The men
were the next to take the floor starting with the lightweight division.
Jack Rubio took first place while
also being the first to lift double his
weight. Rubio bench pressed 270
lbs. while he himself weighs 132 lbs.
Second place was taken by Eric
Yurowski with a lift of 225 lbs.
Third place was taken with a lift of

185 lbs. by Mark Emsweiler.
The middleweight division had
the most men competing in a single
division. Rick Janieri and
Christopher Cara battled it out for
the first with Cara relying on pure
brute strength to move ahead and
capture the win. Cara won the
event with a lift of 360 lbs. while his
body weight is 178 lbs. Janieri
followed with a lift of 310 lbs. while
in his body weight is 178 lbs.' Cara
and Janieri also lifted twice their
body weights. Rick Fisher took
third place with a lift of 305 lbs. and
a body weight of 169 lbs.
The mens heavyweight division
was the next to take the floor. Kurt
Bauer won the division with a
seemingly effortless lift of 350 lbs.
Bauer was followed by second
place winner Barry Gray who lifted
315 lbs. Third place Was captured
by Gator Reid with a lift of 235 lbs.
Intramural activities other than
weightlifting which still have open
rosters include archery, straight
pool , ping-pong, racquetball
doubles and badminton singles.
Rosters shold be turned in to the
Mens Intramural office located in
room 249, Nelson Field House.

BU Downs Salisbury
Looks to National Tourney

SARAH HACKFORTH
Sports Editor
With Salisbury up 1-0 at the half
and leading in shots on goal 8-12,
the BU field hockey team looked as
though they were about to lose their
bid to win two seperate division
titles in two years.
"I just told them to play
aggressive hockey, " commented
head coach Jan Hutchinson. "They
had allowed themselves to be intimidated by an inferior team."
The Huskies took Hutchinson 's
words to heart. Jus t 4 minutes into
the second period , Linda Hershey
converted a pass from Diane
Shields to tie the game l-l. The goal
came at the end of what proved to
be a typical Husky drive with
precision passing . It was a great
improvement after a dismal first
half.
BU is known for its quick sharp
passing game, but because of the
aggressive and the pushy style of

Soccer

play Salisbury displayed, the
Huskies were unable to penetrate
past mid field throughout the first
half .
"Clear the ball long and spread
out the offense. That's what we
needed to do in the second half and
that's what we did," said Hutchinson.
Salisbury scored with 13:20 left in
the first half. Denise Berto took a
pass from Teresa Johnson to give
the Blue Jays a 1-0 lead.
With just 2 minutes left on the
clock, it looked as though Salisbury
had won the game. A quick pass
had put the ball past BU goalie Lori
Guitson. The Blue Jays believed
they had upset one of the top seeded
division III teams, but to their
dismay and to the delight of the
Husky fans, the goal was negated
due to an offsides call. All the
Husky fans breathed a sign of
relief.

Huskies Lose Final Game

DEREK JENKINS
Sports Writer
The Bloomsburg Husky soccer
team ended a long and frustrating
season Saturday with a 6-1 loss to
the West Chester Rams. The
Huskies finished the season at 2-121.
The Rams took charge of the
game right away by controlling
midfield where they beat the
Huskies to the ball. West Chester
put a lot of pressure on the Husky
goal from the start. Only four
minutes into the game the Rams
Rick Husback sent a corner kick in
front of the BU goal. Scott Runge
headed the ball past goalkeeper
Murk Law.
Bloomsburg got a scoring opportunity when senior Ted Pecham
beat a Ram defender , but
goalkeeper Rick Friedel quickly
gathered up the ball. BU kept up
the attack. Sophomore John
Gargoni had a golden opportunity
to score. He unleashed a shot from
20 yards out, but it sailed over the
crossbar.
West Chester scored two more
goals before the end of the half.
Mike Rudy scored for the Rams on
a miscue by a BU defender . One
minute later the Rams extended
their lead to 3-0 when John Lyons

scored. Mike Rudy got the assist.
The second half began with West
Chester taking control of the game
just as they had at the start of the
game. Twenty-one minutesinto the
second half , Lyons scored his
second goal of the game, with Pat
O'Malley getting the assist. The
Husky hooters had a chance to
score on a loose ball in front of the
Ram goal after a corner kick, but a
Ram defender cleared the ball.
Both
teams
changed
goalkeepers. The Rams replaced
Friedel with Scott Strait. Russ
Warner replaced Law for the
Huskies. BU finally came up with a
goal. Ron Smith put a loose ball into the net. With two minutes left in
the game, Leon Sell scored for
West Chester on a chip shot to the
upper left corner of the goal.
The Rams totally dominated the
game, as they outshot the Huskies
34-7. Coach Steve Goodwin looked
at the season as a learning experience. "From day one to the end
of the season the guys showed improvement." Coach Goodwin plans
to recruit heavily during the off
season. The team will play in a
number of indoor tournaments this
winter, and play some games in the
spring to get ready for next fall .

Basketball Preview

Experience: Key to Success
JEFFREY W. COX
Sports Editor
"Our program is well respected and should maintain that respect."
These are confident words from a confident coach , as well they should be.
The Husky men's basketball program looks to be on its way to a fine year.
Coach Charles Chronister feels that his team will be one of the "teams
to beat" this year in the PSAC. He can hardly be blamed , as he has lost
only one starter from last years successful team , and he has also had a
very good year recruting.
Some familiar names coming back to this year's squad are : Wes
Wright, Shane Planutis, Jerome Brisbon, Bob McCullough , Glen Noack
and Pat Flanagan. Once face that will not be returning, though, is Barry
Francisco.
Chronister does not appear too worried about that. "Barry is the kind of
player that people will remember. Barry did a lot of things that were fun
to watch," Chronister added. However, Chronister said that he is very
pleased with his new players, and the Huskies should still "win as a
team."
One of the best products of Chronister 's recruiting is 6'6" Steve Ross.
Chronister feels that Ross has had a fine preseason , and will provide
some needed help with rebounding. Chronister also expects big things
from the rest of his bench , especially from Pat Flanagan. Flanagan started a few games toward the end of the last season, and should be a big
help. "This is as much depth as we have had in a long, long time. I feel
comfortable about the top nine or ten players."
Bob McCullough should also be a big asset to the Husky attack. Greg
Johnston and Greg Thomas should give the guard position some added
strength. Dean Colone will also be available to lend his help to the attack.
That bench will be supporting a strong lineup, which will include tea m
captain Wes Wright. Shane Planutis has improved since last season , and
Jerome Brisbon has also made progress since his freshman year. Glenn
Noack will be another returning starter, who Chronister feels will make a
strong contribution to the Husky scoring attack. Les Austin looks ready to
help out Brisbon in the backcourt.
Chronister claims that the Huskies will be going with a more up-tempo
game plan. He plans to run more man-to-man defenses and traps.
Chronister states that there will be some new faces in the backcourt. He
feels that the only trouble spots could be in defense and rebounding. He
feels that Ross should help to increase rebouding, and that the rest of the
front court is making the transition from "boys to men." A problem in the
