Commons to get

newlook"

"For your dining pleasure." This
thought reflects one of the reasons for
Residence Life'splans to redecorate the
•_ -. ¦
Commons.
Final approval from the Department of
General Servicces for the work will
determine when the job can be put out
to bid and the actual' changes begin.
The redecorating will occur sometime
during the next 12 months, if not over
Christmas break, then before July 1.
Plans are to make Dining Rooms B and
D into a banquet facility. Among the
changes will be softer lighting , new
drapes, painting of the tiles behind the
beverage b'ars, and dark ceiling tiles instead of white. New chairs are! already
in D and should soon be arriving for B.
A rnore informal setting is planned for
Dining Rooms A and C. Smaller rectangular tables, seating four to six people, placed around the perimeter of the
room is aimed at making dining more
personalized .-

New dishes? Yes. BU is the only state
school still using plasticware, but not for
long. Glassware is ordered and on its
way.
The dining rooms are not the only
areas that will experience change. Eventually, new furniture will be obtained for
the lobby and possibly artwork by BU's
own art students.
Residence Life is also interested in encouraging dances by the halls to be held
in the Commons. Recently, gates have
been obtained to block the kitchens off
from the dining rooms to allow for
dances. Arrangements will also be made
to keep the soda machines filledarfd run¦
ning during the dances. ..'
According to Jennie Carpenter,
Residence Life Director, the whole purpose for the renovations is to make the
Commons a place where "If you want
to sit down and visit and not rushed
through a meal, or have a.place to,study,
you can."
If all goes as planned , the Commons
might just be a whole new dining
experience:

North parking lot remains
a controversial issue
ELLEN VAN HORN
Staff Writer

On a campus where finding a parking
place is enough to give anyone high
blood pressure, who would be against a
new parking lot? The students are.
The new faculty parking lot, located
between Northumberland Residence Hall
and Navy Hall, should be completed by
the end of this week according to Donald
McCullough, director of the physical
plant at BU. BU chose to put a new lot
at that site to help relieve the already
crowded parking areas of the college.
However, the students living in Northumberland Hall feel the lot will not only interfere with their daily routines but
their health as well. "The guys living on
the side of the building facing the lot feel
it might affect their health." said Mike
Jarus, vice-president of Northumberland
Hall.
Cars will park about ten feet from the
ground level windows of the hall. The
students are afraid of exhaust fumes
entering their windows as well as the
noise and lights from the.cars. Jarus added,''By the time we found out what was
being built it was too late to get petitions
together to stop the construction."
The faculty benefits from this the
most. Approximately 20 spaces will be
added which will make parking easier.
' Students do not feel 20 parking spaces
will make a big change in the situation.
The health of-their fellow students con-

cerns them the most. When asked if he
heard any negative response about the
parking lot McCollough said, "So far all
the response I've heard has been
positive."
While students see the need for more
parking areas they feel that a 20 space
parking let that close to a dorm is not
the answer.

A.R.S. enhances
events
DON CHOMIAK
Staff Writer

"What is A. R. S.?" was a familiar
phrase around campus last semester. It
appeared in the Voice, on the BU Today
sheets and on several bulletin boards.
Unfortunately, for most, the question
> •
went unanswered.
A.R.S. , the Association of Resident
Students, plans and creates programs to
"enhance events already planned,"said
Robert Francis, A.R.S. co-president.
"For every parade and special event,
we try to help by doing our own
event,"said Alesia Crum , A.R.S.
secretary.
Over 22 years in existence, the
organization prides itself on having fun .
"We are not stuffy and have an informal format," said Francis.
"The things we do, we do for fun as
well as to help the university and the
community," added Crum.

Kicker kicks back
Dear Editor,
In response to a recent editorial by the
so-called "Disappointed Fan," I would
like to express an opinion not only held
by myself, but also by many, many other
people involved with Bloomsburg
University.
First of all , if Coach Landis is doing
such a bad job making the decision of
who should and should not start, maybe
this fan should take another look at the
unbelievable improvement of the team
over the past four years.
Better yet, maybe this fan should
become head coach of the team since he
feels as though he can make better decisions than the head coach, himself.
In response to missing "some extrapoints quite a bit,'' I can only recall one
being missed thus far this season which
hardly agrees with such an unreasonable
itatement.'
Yet, I must agree with the fan about
one comment in the article, he doesn't
know much about football or kicking for
that matter, by writing such a ludicrous
article at such an early stage of the
season.
He also stands correct by stating the
team has more than one kicker, but according to Coach Landis, only the best
player (no matter what position it might
be) starts for his team. I realize this
kickeris not perfect, but then again, who
is?
If this fan could do a better job, or if
he knows someone that can, please have
him report to the BU football practice
field promptly at 3:45 p.m. dressed and
ready for practice. Oh, please don 't be
late or you will have to run. Then we
shall see if you are so right about your
obviously absurd concerns.
By the way, to give everyone an idea
of some other kickers' statistics, compared to the BU kicker, let me express
to you the following cases.
The University of Maryland kicker
missed two field goals against Penn State
just a few weeks ago which lost the game
for Maryland. The kicker is on a fullscholarship and lost the game for a Division I school.

The BU kicker has not missed a field ,
goal that cost the team the game thus far
this season. As a matter of fact, he has
made two out of three attempts this
season for the team with two of the being in one game against Shippensburg.
His extra-points , which are said to be
inconsistently made are four out of five
attempts.
Let us not forget last year when he
made two important field goals against
West Chester to help BU to its first State
Game ever in the history of the school .
Ironically, BU won the game only by
three points. By converting these field
goals in one game, he tied a school
record for the most field goals in one
game (also done against Shippensburg
this year.)
Another kicker at the professional level
with the N.Y. Jets is 0 for 4 this season
in field goal attempts. Why doesn't this
fan relocate somewhere in N.Y. and
criticize the kicker who gets thousands
of dollars and is "only getting the football near the goalpost."
This brings up another point referring
to money. This fan feels that the money
going into the football program is not being well spent. Well, the kicker being
referred to in the last article, along with
anyone else involved in the kicking program, is not getting any kind of aid from
the school whatsoever. Therefore, maybe
this fan should put up the money to
recruit a kicker that meets his obviously incredible standards.
Also, note the present kicker's kickoffs
and how many have been returned out
of the end zone, only 7 of 13.
Next time you feel it necessary to write
such a slanderish editorial about
something you obviously know nothing
about, please come out from behind your
pen and express your feelings to the individual himself. Maybe when your
maturity level grows a little you'll be man
enough to speak your witless mind to the
individual's face.

Chancellor says strikevote's
regretable but not surprising
This is the official statement from Chancellor James H.
McCormick after the announcement of the strike authorization vote on Tuesday, September 24.
"The strike vote announced today by the Association of Pennsylvania State College and University Faculties is regretable , but not surprising.
I certainly hope this vote will not divert the attentions and energies of the union
negotiators from the important issues at the bargaining table. Experience has proven repeatedly that there are no winners in a university strike.
I cannot believe that the fine faculty of this system will jeopa rdize their"students'
best interests by self-interests when they understand the offer before their union.
The difficulties which divide us can be resolved at the bargaining table so long
as we all realize that the State System of Higher Education receives their funds
from two places-state appropriation and student tuition.
The current faculty demand could mean a $300 tuition increase-an increase this
board has resisted."

Enrollment
despite national
The National Center for Education has
predicted that enrollment at colleges and
universities will drop this academic year
by one percent—some 100,000 students.
The decline is attributed to a continuing drop in the number of 18 to 24 year
olds attending college. Contrary to this
prediction , and despite the fact that less
than 50 percent of Pennsylvania's high
school graduates attend college, the 1985
fall full-time enrollment at Bloomsburg
University has increased by 1.8 percent

BU Players' "Look Homeward Angel'
MARY GRISWALD
Staff writer
The Bloomsburg Players will present
"Look Homeward Angel", a play based on the novel by Thomas Wolfe, October 2-6 in Mitrani Hall , Bloomsburg
University.
The setting -is a boardinghouse
ironically named "Dixieland", run by
Eliza Gant, the property-hungry mother
of three children , Helen , Eugene and
Ben .
Just as the old south fell, so does the
Gant family structure. A line from the
play, "No one ever really gets to know
anyone," revealsthis deteriorating family.

Although plenty of calamities befall the
Gants which would bind most famalies, "
it just doesn 't happen because noone
understands or notices each other.
The main protagonist , Eugene (Tony
Dietterick), is constantly striving to away
from home. This creates an outward
movement closely parallell to the movement of the north to overtake the south.
A possible theme might be seen through
Eugene's problem. "I think the struggle
for Eugene to overcome the obstacles set
before him by fate is a positive
thing,"says Jeff Morgan who portrays
Ben Gant and is also president of the
Bloomsburg Players.

Fashions by Harris, Mifflinville, carries a line of ready-to-wear coats and accessaries. In 1986 she will begin making tuxedos. The only difference between
her designs and other brands is that hers
are for mans best friend-the dog.
Doris Harris, 67, is the owner, of The
Dog House, a dog clothing stand at the
Bloomsburg Fair.
"A middle aged man approached me
two years ago and asked me to make a
coat for his pet pig," says Harris. "That
has to be the most unusual coat request
I've ever gotten." If an animal has four
legs, Harris, says she'll make a coat for
it. "I cater to everyone," says Harris.
This order added a new design to her
"normal" line of animal attire. She
makes clothes primarily for poodles,
chilhuahuas, schnauzers, beagles and
other dogs upon request.
Harris learned through experience that
to stay on top of the dog fashions she
would have to custom make a pet 's rain
coat out of tweed, leather, wool, cotton
and fur. All coats include matching hats.

Harris says, "I feel it's ideal for the
person wanting to keep their pet warm
during the winter and dry when it rains.
Harris began her seamstress career
with her own poodle, Pierre.
"This is why I began," says Harris.
"I started making coats for Pierre since
nothing factory-made suited me.'' He was
the model and encouragement Harris
needed for her to sell the finished
product.
"I've been doing all my own designing and sewing," says Harris. "I'm
always making new designs so they don't
look the same."
Pets are measured from the back of
their head to the base of the tail. Harris
cuts and sews the chosen material and
attaches adjustable buttons just in case
the pet gains a little weight or goes on
a diet.
"Dogs don 't have a material
preference, but owners do," says Harris.
She has always been an animal lover and
for this reason she will continue to make
clothing for the "interested dog" (or interested owner) that wants to look like
"Zsa Zsa," "Lady " or "Columbo."

The life of a - carnie"
,, SEAN , C. M,ULLEN
Voice Contributor .
A discouraged-looking boy walked up
to the Bingo stand and started to play. As
he played, he explained to the Bingo callman his dilemma. He was looking for
work and there didn't seem to be any. No
sooner had the Bingo call-man heard this
than he had a job set up'for the boy.
"The Bingo call-man," recalls Jeff
Gerber, "just asked two guys walking by
if they needed any help - and they told
me to follow them." As quick as Gerber
had gotten the job he was at work trying
to coax people into trying the Indian Ladder Climb, a game where,you win a huge
stuffed animal if you can climb the length
of the rope ladder. What Gerber didn't
realize is that this was the beginning of
what would become a challenging parttime job which would expose him to
many different people and places.
Gerber, a junior at Central Columbia
High School, enjoyed working the game
during the Bloomsburg Fair and decided he wanted to continue being a "carnie." For the past two summers, Gerber
traveled across the country with various
carnivals.
During previous fairs, he worked for
at
others^ Bloo'msburg; for the first time
he is running his own "joint ." He pays
the rent and all the costs-- 'It can be over
$800 a week," he says. Gerber takes all
the risks and hopes for decent weather
and a good crowd so he can make a
profit.
''I like trying things that are different,'
says Gerber."Being a carnie is something
unique and I am. proud to be one."
Gerber, whose glasses have vaguely etched on them the word "carnie", obviously is proud of it but explains that
' 'at one time I considered traveling with
the fair for a living-but this life is too
'
"
hard."
The life of a ' 'carnie'' is not a 9-5 job.
It often requires 14-hour days. Most
"carnies" are not married and many live
in trucks or even in rides," he. explains.
''But, we do take care of our own," he
says. "We're different; but we're all in
this together."
Many people think of' 'carnies'' as being con-artists; and according to Gerber,
they are, but he stresses, "None of the
games .are rigged, they are just hard to
learn. With practice, anyone could learn
the games. Some people need to practice more than others." Learning these
games can cost a lot as, Gerber explains,"! have seen a lot of people spend
$50-100 on some of the games. TheyJ
could have bought a lot of stuffed
animals, but they like the challenge of
trying to win."
• With some people spending as .much
as $100 on one game, it could be assumed
that "carnies'' make a lot of money. But

turnovers, three of which resulted in
scores, highlighted by Fisher's interception and 28-yard run for the score. _

Bloomsburg University. Huskies this
Saturday, when George Landis' unit
travels to East Stroudsburg to meet the
Warriors of Denny Douds. Game time
is set for 1 p.m. at ESU's Eiler-Martin
Stadium.,
The Huskies, who raised their record
to 2-0 with a 49-14 romp over host Lock
Haven last week, have not won on the
East Stroudsburg turf since 1972 but did
defeat the Warriors by a 23-13 count a
year ago enroute to the PC East crown.
While Bloomsburg was scoring 49
points (the highest offensive total since
a 62-0 triumph over Scranton in 1972)
and upping its unblemished record to two
victories in as many games for the first
time since 1973, East Stroudsburg fell
victim at home to Montclair State (20-17)
to drop to 0-3.
Landis' squad experienced somewhat
of a slow start at Lock Haven but turned
a 7-0 deficit into a 21-7 halftime advantage with three unanswered touchdowns
in the second quarter.

Last week, BU's women's tennis team
gained another victory against Kutztown,
(9-0) but suffered its first loss of the
season at the hands of Penn State (9-0).
Meg Heard, the Huskies number one
player downed Kutztown's Felicia Reich

The number four player for the

Harakal 6-2, 6-0.
Lisa Stento of Kutztown won five
games in her singles match, the most that
any Kutztown player scored , but still
lossed to Karen Gubicza.
Chris Tegge, the Huskies number six
player, also won defeating Michele Lieby,
6-0, 6-3.
In the doubles competition, already
having the match won, the girls fared
almost as well. The team lost only one
of the three matches.
On Tuesday, however, the team met up
with stiffer competition.
Penn State shut out the Huskies 9-0
handing BU its first loss.
All of the BU players lost their singles

Tailback Tom Futch capped the opening drive after intermission with a fiveyard scoring .run. Passes from backup
quarterbacks Mike Glovas and Paul
Venesky to Joe Dowd and Mike Medina,
respectively, along with a 28-yard interception return by Paul Fisher rounded out the scoring.
Futch had another fine afternoon: gaining 82 yards on 17 carries to raise his
team-leading total to 165 yards and 31
rushes in the two games.
The . sophmore speedster has also
scored twice along with Robinson who
collected 63 yards on 14 carries in the
contest. A senior, Robinson is tied for
the team; lead in receptions with wide
receiver Joe Dowd with seven receptions
each.
Robinson's catches have been good for
68 yards, while Dowd has picked up 140
and was credited with 44 yards on-the
touchdown reception in the Lock Haven
game.
Rockmore, the Huskies' tight end, is
close behind the leaders with five receptions for 53 yards.
The BU coaching staff got the opportunity to see many players including three
quarterbacks. During his stint , Dedea
completed 10 of 18 aerials and has now
been successful on 25 of 50 passes for
318 yards and a score.
When Glovas took over, he was good
on three of four tosses, including the
44-yard touchdown pass and gathered 71
yards before giving way to Venesky.The
sophomore took advantage of his short
time in the game by completing two of
four for 10 yards and a touchdown of
three yards to Medina.
The Huskies' kicking game showed
improvement over the previous week as
sophomore Ed Jankowski punted six
times for a 44.5 averageand kickers Todd
Sullivan and Chris Mingrone were
perfect on a combined seven extra point
kicks.
In the return department , Futch and
Tony Woods returned three kickoffs for
64 yards, and freshman Derrick Hill
handled the first five punt returns of his
collegiate career averaging 16.6 yards per
return.
One area of concern for the Huskies
is the fact that they've been flagged for
21 penalties and 165yards in the first two
games._y ""' •;

The two teams met twice last season
