Imelda Marcos pleads
f i f t hon money questions
by Mark Fineman
Los Angeles Times

Honolulu—Cry ing and clutching a rosary , Imelda Marcos
took the Fifth Amendment more
than 200 times Wednesday when
Philippine government attorneys
questioned her under oath on
allegations that she and her husband stole billions of dollars from
the national treasury to amass a
personal fortune during their two
decades in power.
The former Phillipine first
lady 's refusal to answer hundreds
of questions on subjects ranging
from her huge jewelry collection
to allegations that she diverted
American aid funds to her personal use while serving as governor of Manila and head of the
Philippine Economic Support
Council came just twenty-four
hours after her husband , desposed President Ferdinand E. Marcos , invoked his Fifth Amendment right 197 times during a
similar deposition.
Wearing a scarlet gown in the
oceanfront dining room in their
home in Honolulu 's fashionable
Kahala district , Imelda Marcos
broke down and cried when asked whether she and the former
Philippine president have an
ownership interest in a nearby
Honolulu mansion where the couple stayed for a brief time after
fleeing Manila.
Imelda Marcos ' more than four
hours of testimony were
videotaped and recorded by an official court reporter under a recent ruling by U.S. District Court
in Los Angeles, where the Philippine government has sued the
Marcoses to recover at least $2
billion it claims the couple
diverted for their own use during
Marcos ' twenty years in power.
Attorneys for the new government of Philippine President Corazon Aquino asked the former
first lady a battery of questions
about documents they introduced
in evidence showing that the
former first lady used two aliasesJane Ryan and John Lewis-to
open Swiss bank accounts early
in her husband's tenure in office.
On the advice of her personal
attorneys, Mrs. Marcos again invoked against self-discrimination
when asked about documents indicating she and her husband
diverted millions of dollars from
then-President Marcos ' official
"intelligence fund" -money the
documents indicate Mrs. Marcos

used to purchase millions of
dollars worth of jewelry while on
official visits to New York City
and to finance her daughter 's college education at Princeton
University .
When asked who planned the
1983 assassination of Aquino 's
husband , former Philipp ine
Senator Benigno S. Aquino Jr.,
Imelda Marcos' lawyers intervened and barred her from answering the questions. President
Aquino has said the Marcoses are
her prime suspects in the
assassination , but no criminal
charges have been filed against
them.
In its original lawsuit against
the Marcos ', the Philippine
government charged that Imelda
Marcos , together with her husband , headed an international network patterned after an
organized-crime syndicate that
systematically plundered their nation 's treasury of at least $2
billion while in office
Specifically, the government
charges that Imelda Marcos , who
was appointed by her husband as
governor of Manila and chairman
of a government council that
distributed hundreds of millions
of dollars in U.S. government aid
funds , "illegally diverted ,
transported , and invested" some
of the aid money to her own personal accounts in the United
States and Switzerland.
In helping her husband amass
the government assets is a $2
billion personal fortune in cash
and real estate scattered
worldwide, the lawsuit contends
"the fraud involved not only
elaborate schemes to acquire
funds and property by fraud , but
equally sophisticated techniques
for secretly transporting gotten
gains to the United States,
Switzerland , and elsewhere, investing them, and concealing all
this fraudulent activity for up to
twenty years. "
Documents introduced in
evidence during the former president 's deposition Tuesday show
that he and Imelda Marcos used
the aliases William Saunders and
Jane Ryan to open their first
Swiss bank account in Zurich ,
Switzerland , with a balance of
$950,000 in March 1968, a year
when Marcos' salary as president
was about $5,600.
When confronted with the
document Wednesday , Imelda
Marcos pleaded the Amendment,

Attorney General E dwin
Meese HI proposed Thursday that
Congress spend an additional $10
million to heighten the government's war against the potent new
form of cocaine known as crack.
The plan includes hiring 50
Drug Enforcement Administration specialists and 32 support
staff to assist local law enforcement agencies in metropolitan
areas where the problem is considered the worst.
Other steps would include expanding DEA intelligence programs and provide additional
training for state and local police.
Concern about crack is a major force behind the White House
drive against illegal narcotics.
The proposal announced Thursday , however , is separate fro m
the massive anti-drug legislative
packages that have been passed
by the House and Senate , a
Department of Justice spokesman
said. The two bills must be reconciled before being signed into

law.
"Special drug trafficking problems require special efforts , and
we see that new steps are appropriate to help in a number of
areas that have serious crack problems ," Meese said in a statement. No congressional action is
expected on the Department of
Justice request until the next
legislative session , which begins
in January .
In a report issued with the request , the Reagan administration
said the crack was "being abused in near-epidemic proportions
in some communities. "
Although no reliable figures
are available, various government
agencies said they believed that
crack use was growing rapidly,
despite reports that abuse of other
illegal narcotics was leveling off .
The DEA released a study last
week say ing that crack use was
concentrated in a few major
metropolitan areas and suggested
that the scope of the problem may
have been exaggerated by the
news media. The Department of
Justice spokesman said Meese's

proposal was an effort to focus
anti-crack efforts on those cities
where the problem was most
serious.
The second report was issued
by the National Drug Enforcement Policy, of which Meese is
chairman , and was requested by
Congress in July to develop a
plan for assisting local governments in fighting the drug .
Easily manufactured crack is
available for as little as $10,
which is cheaper than more traditional forms of cocaine, the
policy board report said.
It is smoked rather than inhaled , and users may become addicted in 5 weeks, compared with
several years of use before addiction to inhaled cocaine. Among
the worst consequences of crack
abuse are brain hemorrhages ,
convulsions and heart attacks, the
report said.
"The present crack situation ,
in short , is bleak , " the report
said. The drug is "rapidly attracting a cross section of Americans
without regard to age , sex , income level or race. "

Zaccaro indicted in cable
tv bribery investigation

by John J. Goldman

LA Times-Washington Post Service

John A. Zaccaro , the husband
of former Democratic vicepresidential candidate Geraldine
Ferraro , has been indicted by a
grand jury investigating allegations of bribery in the awarding
of cable television franchises , his
lawyer said Wedneday .
Robert G. Morvillo , Zaccaro 's
lawyer, said that he did not know
the specific charges of the indictment. However , he said that his
client had denied any wrongdoing. The existence of the indictment also was confirmed by acting justice Seymour Rotker in
New York State Supreme Court
in the New York City borough of
Queens, who said that no further
details would be disclosed at this
time.
Morvillo said that the statute of
limitations in the case expires
Oct. 8 and that he charged the indictment was the result of a
"panicked race" by prosecutors
to beat the deadline.

The grand jury 's investigation
has centered on charges that Zaccaro and Michael A. Nussbaum ,
a Queens political consultant ,
sought payments from companies
competing throug h former
Queens Boroug h President
Donald Manes for lucrative cable
televsion franchises in 1981.
Published reports citing
lawyers familiar with the case
have said the grand jury heard
testimony that Zaccaro , a New
York real estate broker , introduced an executive of the cable
television concern to Manes and
later asked for $1 million to help
the company obtain the cable
franchise.
Zaccaro had been seeking to
disqualify the grand jury on the
grounds that the assistant district
attorney heading the case lives
outside of New York City . State
law requires prosecutors in all
boroughs except Manhattan to
live in the city .
Queens District Attorney John
J. Santucci said in court papers
that the assistant maintains a

home both in the city and in
suburban Westchester County .
Last week, Santucci petitioned
the Appellate Division to lift temporary restraining orders blocking the grand jury from indicting.
On Monday , the appeals court
removed the stays.
"We are disappointed that
upon learning of this decision of
the Appellate Division , the
district attorney chose to engage
in a panicked race to file a charge
in an effort to preclude us fro m
gaining a fair hearing ," Morvillo
said Wednesday . "We can only
conclude that he was worried
about his legal position and the
legitimacy of his grand jury proceeding ."
In January 1985 , Zaccaro
pleaded guilty to one misdemeanor count of trying to defraud
in connection with a real estate
deal in which he misstated his net
worth on a loan application. He
was sentenced to 150 hours of
community service.

ACEI:
students
working
with
children
by Mary Ellen Spisak
for the Voice

The Association of Childhood
Education International (ACEI} is
a professional organization that is
concerned with the growth and
development of children from infancy through early adolescence.
In the past years , ACEI held
various activities such as: an
Easter party for Head-start , fund
raisers, community services and
speakers.
One prospective plan for this
year 's group is tutoring elementary and secondary educational
children . Involved members of
the group will use their particular
education field to help the
children in their studies and collection for the U.N.I.C.E.F.
fund.
They also plan to sponsor
Christmas and Halloween parties
for the local Day Care Center ,
and invite speakers to discuss the
growth and development of
children . ACEI is, in combined
effort with the PSEA (Pennsylvania State Education Association), planning to invite a speaker
to discuss child abuse and its effects on teachers. Another
speaker who will lecture on
memeory is also planned.
Possibly, the presentations may
be made available to the entire
campus.
ACEI provides actual one-toone experience with children and
"it gives students a chance to actually work with children. " says
Jill Cloos , president of ACEI.
The advisor is Dr. Noakes and
this year's officers are: Jill Cloos,
president; Janine Kehler , vice
president; Faith Lafferty ,
secretary and Kim Mills ,
treasurer.
"There seemed to be a pretty
good turnout at the first meeting,
but considering all the education
majors , there should have been
more. " says Cloos.
From 1976-77 , when the
organization started , members
have been in contact with children
from various age groups , which
is beneficial to both the participants and the children.
The next ACEI meeting will be
Oct. 13 at 8:15 p.m. The location
for the meeting has not yet been
determined .

Actual vs. pseudo participation
In an atmosphere of growth and
learning, one would expect a
desire to take advantage of opportunities which exist. Unfortunately, that isn 't always the case.
Lately it seems, I have been
overhearing more complaints
than usual from people in my
classes concerning all the other
work they have to do. There apparentl y isn 't enough time to
fulfill the responsibilities they
have taken upon themselves.
When things get tough , no one
wants to stick around and work
it out. The first reaction is to
jump ship at the slightest sign of
roug h waters.
When a class/activity assignment is given , there is no
unspoken clause stating that it
doesn 't have to be completed if
other things arise. It goes without
saying that it should be completed
unless an extension is granted .
It also does not necessarily
mean there is a specific reason for
the assignment other than to give
the person experience at a certain
task. It only becomes useless
when the person involved has no
desire to learn anything by completing it.

The purpose of attending college is to enrich your mind and
expand your horizons . How can
you expect to get something for
nothing? Attending class and doing your homework is all well and
good , but what about getting
some practical experience?
After graduation when going
for a job interview, the fact that
you attended class and got a 4.0
GPA says absolutely nothing for
what you can -do as far as practical application of classroom
knowledge.
Taking on a responsibility and
backing out on it when other people are depending on you is just
as bad , if not worse, than not doing it at all. Take a minute to
think of how many (or how little) people you will be letting
down because you felt it was not
important.
An interviewer will not be very
impressed when you say, "Well ,
I was involved in Finance Club ,
AMA , and I also wrote for The
Voice. " "How long were you a
member of the clubs? Do you
have any clippings?" he/she will
ask. "Aaaah . . . I only wrote one
article. But I was involved in the

clubs for one semester, you reply. Chalk that one up to
experience!
I could go on and on about the
varied excuses I have heard, but
I am sure many have heard them,
if not used them themselves. Instead of taking the easy way out,
why not put a little effort into
something that will have a purpose in the long run.
Employers are looking for people who have a history of working hard and sticking with
something for an extended period
of time. No matter how many activities you list on your resume,
if you were only involved for a
month here or two weeks there,
potential employers are not going
to be impressed. Chances are you
would not stay working for their
company long enough to be worth
the time they invest in your
training.
The next time you decide to
just give up on something or someone, stop and put the situation
into perspective. Is it really impossible for you to see it through
to completion or are you only
feeling sorry for yourself?

ture and rhythms of family life .
The median income of families
doubled between 1947 and 1973,
but has stagnated since then , in
spite of the dramatic increase in
two-income families. Today ,
mortgage payments take 29 percent of the median famiy income,
up from 17.9 percent in 1970.
The average annual cost of attending a private university takes
40.4 percent of median family income, up from 29.6 percent in
1970. Home ownership and access to college are basic aspirations of middle-class families and
are becoming less accessible.
And there are other new anxieties . In the average kindergarten
class today , one in six of the
children was born to a teen-age
mother. More than 25 percent of
America 's families are singleparent families and 95 percent of
them are headed by women.
Seventy percent of all mothers
with school-age children work
outside the home. When the
women who today are between 30
and 39 were 21 to 30, only 58.3
percent had children. Today 78.2
percent do—a 40 percent increase.
Many of these are try ing to continue professional careers .
The Democratic document
states that , "The most common
emotion associated with childrearing is guilt—over 'not spending enough time with the kids.'"
The Democrats speak tentatively, promising only to "consider"
promoting such measures as
parental leave for childbirth, flexible work times, job sharing and
other measures to alleviate stress
and guilt. These ideas may be
slender reeds on which to lean a
concept as large as "family
policy , " but they are not less persuasive than Republican claims to
be "pro-family " and "antigovernment. "
The average American does not
think the welfare of his or her
family depends primarily on this
or that micro-policy that delivers
a particular service or benefit.
Rather , it depends on the success
of one macro-policy : the manage-

ment of economic growth .
Regarding
Republican
mismanagement of the economy ,
as exemplified by the deficit, the
Democratic document is a tissue
of evasions. For example, in what
may be the most backhanded
praise in the history of politics ,
the document says "almost any
combination of approaches (t$
deficit-cutting) is preferable to tj ie
poison pill represented by
Gramm-Rudman-Hollings "
across-the-board budget cuts, but
Gramm-Rudman-Hollings "is
preferable to no strategy at all ."
However , the most illuminating aspect of the
Democratic document is the care
it takes to express a particular attitude, using families as the focus.
This is less an attempt to promise
governmental solutions to the
problem than a more modest attempt to demonstrate empathy
with voters who are anxious
about a problem that is not submissive to political solutions.
Democrats are getting a message
about "values," a message first
offered to them in a book published by two Democrats in 1970.
In "The Real Majority ,"
Richard Scammon and Ben Wattenberg warned that crime, campus unrest and changing sexual
mores were giving many voters
a sense of moral dissolution , and
many voters were saying : "I do
not expect a politician, any politician , can make these conditions
disappear overnight. I even
understand that some of the problems aren't strictly political problems. But I do expect that any
politician I vote for will be on my

Domestic policy pounded
into "shapeless goo "
by George F. Will
Editorial Columnist

Digging and delving in the
Democratic Party 's latest policy
pronouncement , "New Choices
in a Chang ing America ," you
come upon this thump ing affirmation: "Families matter. " What
is going on? A back-to-basics
movement among Democrats that
is ominous news to Republicans.
Democrats have gone out in the
pasture behind the barn to practice new lines.
Since the late 1960s, many
voters have doubted whether the
national Democratic Party shares
their anxieties about a dissolution
of "traditional values. " The
Democrats ' new policy document
addresses that doubt by, among
other things , lavishing attention
on "the family. "
By the third paragraph , the
document is dispensing bromides :
"Strong, independent families are
the centerpiece of Democratic
domestic policy . Democrats , in
their unmodulated new enthusiasm , may be about to pound
the idea of "family policy " into
the sort of shapeless goo they
have made of the idea of "civilri ghts policies. "
For years , Democrats have
been christening their favorite
domestic policies (job programs ,
public housing, urban renewal) as
"civil-ri ghts " policies , in an attempt to give them momentu m
and insulate them fro m criticism.
Now there is a tendency to turn
"family policy " into another
classification that does not
classify—a classification that includes everything.
Tax reform , job training, aid
for small—sorry , I mean "family "—farms , all are advertised as
pro-family policies because they
ease social distress , and distress
is hard on families. The traditional liberal agenda can come
clothed in the language of "traditional " values.
However , the Democratic
document does contain serious
thoughts about the changing tex-

Freedom of the skies is costly
by Charles Lane
LA Times-Washington Post Service

The air collision between a
single-engine private plane and an
Aeromo DC-9 over Cerritos ,
Calif. , has touched off a heated
debate concerning the risks that
private aircraft pose to
themselves, to commercial aircraft and to people on the ground.
But in all the talk about restricting the landing and takeoff rights
of private planes , or equipping
them with better radar and
collision-avoidance gizmos, hardly anyone has mentioned what
might be the most efficient way
to reduce the private-plane problem: getting rid of the subsidy
that these aircraft receive fro m
commercial airline passengers .
That 's right. The last time you
bought an airline ticket you
helped subsidize the Piper involved in the Cerritos crash and the
roughly 220,000 other private
planes in the general-aviation
fleet. Here's how :
Commercial and generalaviation craf^ alike depend on
America's federally operated airtraffic-control system. In fact ,
takeoffs and landings by generalaviation planes accounted for 64
percent of all operations handled
by airport control towers in 1985.
Major commercial airlines accounted for just 20 percent , even
though they are responsible for
more than 90 percent of all
passenger miles flown. (The
other users of the air-traffic
system were commuter lines , air
taxis and military planes.) Private
users included many small
planes, but jets and turboprops
owned by wealthy executives and
big corporations were more
typical .
Private planes pay a "user's
fee " for air-traffic services
through a 12-cent-per-gallon tax
on airplane gasoline and a 14-cent
tax on jet fuel . But , according to

the nonpartisan Congressional
Budget Office, these taxes cover
only about one-tenth of the
government's costs. The general-aviation lobby "the NRA of the
air , " as it is known in
Washington—has proved to be a
formidable opponent not only of
tougher safety standards but also
of higher user fees.
So airline passengers are left
holding the bag . The eight percent tax on air tickets is designed to cover the cost of the commercial airliners ' use of the
system. That it does—and then
some. According to the Congressional Budget Office , the ticket
tax actually brings in 20 percent
more than the cost of the services
that airlines use—making up for
part of what general aviation
doesn 't pay .
The safety record of these subsidized private planes has been
improved in some respects lately, but it 's still atrocious. In 1984
general aviation 's fatal-accident
rate was 1.73 per 100,000 fly ing
hours—123 times worse than the
airlines ' rate . In . the first seven
months of this year there were
130 midair near-collisions involving airliners and non-airliners-up
30 percent over last year. And
then there was Cerritos.
Private planes contribute to airport congestion , too. That keeps
commercial flights waiting . At
busy major airports in Los
Angeles, Boston and Atlanta ,
private planes equipped with the
necessary instruments to communicate with the control towers
are perfectly free to take spots in
front of airliners in the takeoff
and landing queues , even during
peak hours , as long as they get
there first.
At "high density " airports
such as New York's John F. Ken
nedy and Washington 's National ,
general-aviation craft are
restricted to a quota of takeoff and
landing "slots. " But there are

still enoug h of them to add to the
time that others would have to
wait if there were no generalaviation p lanes. National , for example , reserves 12 of its 60 slots
each hour for private planes.
Private p lanes rarely have to
pay more than $100 for the
privilege of landing at a major
airport . They can land for free at
Atlanta and Los Angeles, and
private jets can touch down for
just $5.28 in Washington. Such
low rates tempt corporate planes
to use major airports rather than
less convenient reliever airports .
Of course general-aviation
pilots should be better trained and
have better radar and collisionavoidance equipment. But these
measures still would not solve the
fundamental problem of too many
planes cluttering the airspace.
The best way to relieve this
burden on already swamped airtraffic controllers is to cut the
number of general-aviation planes
in the air.
The general-aviation lobby
bristles at outright restrictions on
private planes , insisting on
"freedom of the skies. " Fine.
But let these plane's pay for the
privilege. No subsidies from
anyone. The Congressional
Budget Office estimates that this
would cut their activity by 14 percent and save the government
$2.9 billion over the next five
years.
Freedom of the skies is a noblesounding
principle.
But
America 's limited supply of airways, airports and air-traffic controllers should be used to move
the public as safely and cheaply
as possible—not to cater to a
relative handfull of private fliers .
Subsidizing prop planes and executive jets at the expense of
commercial airline passengers is
irrational , unfair and potentially
dangerous.

editor of the New Republic. )

'The necklace \.Justice, law, revenge

In direct proportion to the way

The black majority in South

On the Friday, Sept. 26 edition

a report on just what the black

oppression.
In a radical show of intolerance
for the prejudices and injustices
enacted upon them , the blacks
have developed a tool of justice

The Mentor Program also
assists students in bridging the
transition from dependence on
others to independence and selfsufficiency. The goal is to help
students achieve maximum
benefits from their college
experience.
According'to Broach-Britt , a
mentor is a friend to help the
freshman through the difficulties
he may experience his first year
on campus. Broach-Britt said ,
"We are initiating this program
with the aim of getting faculty and
administrators more involved
with our students . All too often
students perceive us as unapproachable disciplinarians in our
offices and classrooms. The mentor program can be a significant
way to change that unfortunate
impression. "
"If any freshman is interested
in taking advantage of this program ,, please stop by the Admissions or Academic Advisement
Office," Broach-Britt said.

Mercury Morris to
speak against drugs

Student at Large
And what do you think?

, Don Chomiak
Once upon a time , there was
such a thing as a decision. This
substance , foreign in today 's
world , required meditation ,
direction , a result , and above all ,
responsibility .
In the Twentieth Century, we
have come up with something to
eliminate such a dangerous and
open-ended option. In our
modern , technical , and sensitive
world , we have the committee.
This animal rids us of the need
to think , to analyze, and to go out
on a limb. There is never
anything to worry about because
the issue is 'still in committee. '
Recently a decision had to be
made in the little town of
Bumblesburg . The mayor and the
rest of the neighborhood kiddies
gathered together and began to
discuss what should be done.
The door of the room in which
the meeting was held had yet to
be adorned with the sign reading
'Conference Room (T or
'one '), ' which was the idea of a
committee member who wished
to remain anonymous.
The door sign issue had gotten
stalled between those who preferred the word 'one ' written out ,
and those who wanted the number
T on the sign.
Entering the room and signing
in on a spiral notebook belonging to Mrs. Jennings , (the color
of the soon-to-be-ordered
minutes ' volume had yet to be
successfully decided on), the
members settled in for what
would hopefull y be another session of non-committal committee

action.
The only truly inspiring thing
was that they had actually decided to have another meeting. This
was, however , because they were
unsure of what, if anything, had
been decided in the last meeting.
And they, every single one of
them, wanted to be safe in assuming that since the date for another
meeting was created , there must
be something worth talking
about.
Fortunately, due to the shape
of the room , the members had to
sit around a long table during the
meeting. This allowed the mayor
to sit on one end simply because
he was the only unmarried person on the committee. The rest of
the members and their spouses
had a short conference and decided by secret ballot amongst
themselves to sit in couples for
reasons unknown.
The purpose of the meeting
dealt with what to do about the
recent robbery that occurred in
the town hall. The offices were
broken into and many items were
taken , including the gavel needed to start the meeting. Unfortunately, the members could not
come up with any alternative
method of starting the meeting.
Being a committee, they then
decided to discuss the issue.
Everyone took out a piece of
paper and wrote down what they
thought should be used instead of
the gavel .
The secret ballots , used so no
part of the committee would have
to take responsibility , were collected and there was a tie between
the mayor's shoe and Mrs . Jennings ' umbrella.
The mayor , declining to take a
side , for that would require
single-mindedness, asked for an
adjournment of the meeting . The
committee agreed to shelve the
gavel issue until the next meeting,
scheduled for the following Tuesday for reasons previously
mentioned .

students will now be allowed free
admission to Bloomsburg Theatre
Ensemble shows, thanks to a
grant given by the university
According to Terry Jacques ,
communications/marketing director of the BTE , they received a
$5000 grant after approaching the
university about the idea.
"We felt we had something
good to offer the studen ts," Jacques says.
"We want to see a good turnout. We don 't want the university to waste their money ," Jacques continues.
According to Jacques , the
CGA gave a grant of $2500 from
the university budget, while an
additional $2500 came from the
university trust 's unrestricted
funds acccount
She says that with I.D.
students can go about getting a
ticket in three ways:
-They can go to the BTE box
office and reserve a ticket.
Tickets will be held for three days
after the reservation is made.
-They can go to the box office
and get a ticket on the spot at the
door.

—They can call the night of the
show and reserve a ticket up until 20 minutes before the show.
The BTE opens their first show
of the season Thursday at 8 p.m.
The show is The Foreigner and
it runs Thursday s through Sundays until Oct. 25 at the Alvina
Krause Theatre on Center Street ,
right around the corner from
Woolworth' s.

Mercury Morris will be speaking at BU on Tuesday evening ,
Oct. 7, from 6:30-7:30 in Haas
Auditorium. He will offer both
information and understanding to
the question , "Why do we do the
things we do?"- an enlightening
perspective and distinctly different message about what is happening to our chemical society.
In 1982, seven years after leaving professional football , Morris
was arrested, tried and convicted
on charges of conspiracy and trafficking in cocaine and, as a result
thereof, served three and one-half
years in prison. On March 6,
1986, the Florida Supreme Court,
by an overwhelming five to one
decision , declared that Mercury

Morrris was not given a fair trial,
in that evidence which could have
helped Morris prove his innocence was not permitted. He
was released from prison a free
man — free from the charges
brought against him ~ but more
importantly, free from the drug
abuse which plagued him after his
football career ended.
Morris was born and raised in
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Morris
graduated from Avonworth High
School in 1965 and attended West
Texas State University from
1965-1969 . While attending West
Texas State University , Morris
received ail-American honors as
a tailback in 1967 and 1968. It

dig deep into the world of the insane, or not so insane, when they
present "One Flew Over the
Cuckoo 's Nest ," 8p.m., Oct.
8-11 in Mitrani Hall.
The play is written by Dale
Wasserman , but adapted from a
novel by Ken Kesey. It will be
directed by Hitoshi Sato.
The story is a tragic-comedy
which takes place in a mental institution somewhere in the northwest United States . The
primary setting is a day-room in

the institution. The plot resolves
around two major characters:
Nurse Ratchett (played by Jennifer Gary) who is involved in a
power struggle with Randall
McMurp hy (played by Larry
Murphy), a patient in the
hosp ital. It is never quite
established whether McMurphy ,
who comes from a work-farm ,
actually belongs in the hospital .
Tickets for the production are
available for students free with a
Bloomsburg University ID. For
more information call 389-4287.

Parking has been a problem on Bloomsburg University campus for
a long time and steps are being taken now to solve this problem.

Parkingp roblemsdiscussed
by Lynn Ernst
for the Voice

Faculty, staff , and students
with cars are almost constantly
reminded of die parking problems
on BU' s campus each time they
search for a legal parking space.
Many are concerned with what is
being done to. help alleviate the
problem.
Chief of Law Enforcement
Kenneth Weaver said the parking
situation is trying to be improved in a number of ways. One way
is by the number of decals given
to car owners. The idea of one
decal per student and faculty was
impassed so that the number of
decals is equal to the amount of
parking spaces.
Problems with dispensing more
than one decal to a person was
evident when figures from
February of 1986 showed there
was a total of 750 faculty/staff
personnel and there were 1,369
cars registered.
Weaver also explains that the
traffic policy has been rewritten
more clearly so everyone is aware
of the rules for parking on campus. All rules are outlined in the
Motor Vehicles Regulation pamphlet which everyone receives
upon registering their car. By
reading the pamphlet carefully ,
registered car owners become
aware of the prcedures for parking and helping the parking
system on campus stay organized.
Another action being taken is
that some students living close to
campus are restricted from getting their cars registered. Also,
freshman and sophomores are not
allowed decals unless they have
been granted special consideration. These restrictions are being
set so that parking can become

But even though the person
coming onto campus from
Hazelton has a longer distance to
travel than the person coming
from Light Street , aren 't they
both commuters? The answer is
yes, but the university believes
the Hazelton student should be
given access to parking because
of the distance being traveled.
Weaver points out that the
Pennsy lvania Crimes Code
authorizes all Commonwealth
agencies and university presidents
to regulate , govern , and enforce
motor vehicle traffic and parking
on Commonwealth property and
university campuses.
Concerned students have suggested starting a shuttle bus
system that would allow them to
park their cars at Nelson
Fieldhouse and then have a bus
take them to and from campus.
Weaver explains that the installaSee page 5

THE FAR SIDE

By

GA RY LA RSON

The faculty and nursing majors
of the Student Nurses Association
(SNA), in coordination with the
American Heart Association
(AHA), conducted a screening
program for high blood pressure
last week. The screenings took
place Monday-Friday from 9
a.m. to 5 p.m. in the Agricultural
Building at the Bloomsburg Fair.
Carol Duchan , president of
SNA , said the screenings were
conducted to test for and warn
people about the existence of hi gh
blood pressure.
In 1985, the SNA screened
over 1,200 people. Many of them
were found to have hieh blond

pressure , even though they were
totally unaware they had it. Some
were advised to consult their
physicians immediately because
the screenings detected abnormally hi gh blood pressure levels.
Duchan said many people are
unaware of high blood pressure
and the screenings may have saved some lives. •
Along with Duchan , the program was co-coordinated by Linda Rauchmeyer , chairperson of
the program committee. Carol
Woyzotich of the AHA coordinated supp lies and blood
pressure standards for the screening program.
Duchan says she would like to

Gigi Davison, the coordinator
of the entertainment night, says
there will be a variety of performers , most of which will be
residents of Bloomsburg and the
University .
In the past, entertainment night
was held on campus for the col-

lege students only . But Davison
says that including the community
in the event has provided a
greater number of participants .
Types of performances will be
acoustic guitar playing, piano
playing and singing. The theme
of the night will be folk music.

was while attending West Texas
State University , and rushing
more yard s than any other runner in the history of college football that Morris received his
trademark nickname of "Mercury ."
In 1969, Mercury was drafted ,
in the third round , by the Miami
Dolphins . He started out as a kick
return specialist and on his first
attempt , against Cincinnati , he
returned the kick 105 yards for
a touchdown , which was the second longest return kick in the
NFL record books. Mercury also
won the AFC kick return championship in 1971.
In 1972-73, Mercury played on
back to back world championshi p

teams. His best two seasons enjoyed by the Miami Dolphins , as
well as any club in NFL history ,
amassing 32 wins in 34 games ,
including a 1972 "17-0" perfect
season , yet to be equalled. During those to seasons, Mercury
became the most feared man in
the backfield — capable of scoring at any time — and anywhere
on the field. Mercury rushed for
a thousand yard s in 1972 and he,
along with teammate Larry
Czonka , earned a spot in pro
football's Hall of Fame record
books by becoming the first backs
to gain 1,000 yards in the
backfield in a 14 game season.
In 1976, due to injuries , Mercury decided to retire from the
game.

Huskies bounce back against ESU 20-3

by Dave Sauter
for the Voice

On a wet Saturday afternoon ,
3400 fans watched as the
Bloomsburg University Huskies
convincing ly shut down the Warriors of East Stroudsburg 20-3.
The victory was important as
BU bounced back from last Friday ' s tough 44-7 loss to West
Chester .
The Huskies needed the win to
stay close to the top of the
division.
According to the Pennsylvania
Conference tie-breaking system ,
the team that went to the state
game last year is automaticall y
eliminated from the tie.
To win the division outright ,
the Huskies must not finish the
season with a tie , but with one
more victory than the secondplace team.
Saturday 's game was a step in
the right direction. Led by the
overall play of quarterback Jay
DeDea , the Huskies improved
their mark to 3-1 overall and 1-1
in the conference.
The game opened up with East
Stroudsburg winning the toss and
electing to receive. The Warriors
fought their way downfield to the
BU 38-yard line before the
Huskies stalled their drive.
Todd McNamee's 36-yard punt
pinned BU on its own two-yard

line.
Starting from the two ,
Bloomsburg mounted an impressive drive of its own , moving the ball to the Warrior 's
33-yard line , onl y to have
penalties and a sack force them
back to the 43.
Tim Chamberlain 's punt gave
the ball back to ESU , which proceeded to march down the field
to the BU 20. ESU' s Mike
Augustine put the first points on
the board with a 37-yard field
goal.
The second quarter proved to
be similar to the first. Both teams
had problems executing their
plays. There were many incomplete passes , missed blocks ,
and penalties on both sides.
Bloomsburg finall y got on the
board thanks to an interception by
Jake Williams who returned the
ball to the ESU six-yard line.
Bloomsburg could not move
the ball on three plays and was
forced to settle for Chris
Mingrone 's 20-yard field goal .
The first half ended with the
score tied 3-3. During the half ,
Warrior Ray Gentilella struggled ,
completing only two of 12 passes
for 28 yards
and
two
interceptions.
Jay DeDea had a much better
half , connecting on nine for 18
throws for 130 yards and no
interceptions.

half on their own 26-yard line.
On the first play from scrimmage, DeDea stunned the ESU
defense by connecting with Curtis Still on a 74-yard touchdown
pass. With Mingrone 's extra
point , BU suddenly led 10-3 only 19 seconds into the third
quarter.
The next few series amounted
to little , with both teams unable
to move the ball.
The Huskies were given a
break when the Warriors fumbled a Tim Chamberlain punt. BU
then moved downfield far enough
for Mingrone to connect on a
41-yard field goal for a 13-3 lead.
At that point , rain began falling. It continued for most of the
rest of the game. The already
slippery field became more muddy, making play-execution
difficult.
With about nine minutes to
play , East Stroudsburg once
again set up a Husky score .
Todd McNamee, back to punt ,
was delivered a high snap and
was forced to run the ball upfield
into a swarm of maroon and gold
jerseys. BU's Jim Tyson stopped
McNamee on the ESU 25, g iving the Huskies excellent field
position .
DeDea went right to work with
an 18-yard pass to wide receiver
Ken Liebel for a first down on the
seven. Two plays later , DeDea
hit Kevin Grande for a six-yard

touchdown pass. Mingrone tacked on the extra point for a 20-3
lead.
The Warriors made a gutsy effort to get back in the game , but
were stalled once again on their
next drive at the BU 26. ESU' s
final drive stalled on the BU five
with a minute and a half to play .
The Huskies then ran out the
clock for a 20-3 victory .
All in all , the Huskies played
a tough game against the Warriors , overcoming early mistakes
and finishing strong ly. "I was
particularl y impressed with the
way the guys came out in the second half and executed , especially after a tough first half ," said
BUHead Coach Pete Adrian.
For the Warriors', Gentilella
finished the day 10-34 for 138
yards and two interceptions ,
while DeDea was 14-3 1 for 254
yards , no interceptions and two
touchdowns. He was sacked four
times
Mingrone hit for 20 and
41-yard field goals and two extra points. He missed one for 48
that sailed left.
With the loss, East Stroudsburg
fell to 0-4 overall and 0-2 in the
conference. They will return to
prepare for their next game as
they host Kutztown.
The Huskies will be on the road
next week as they visit Cheyney.

integrity and the university has integrity . Whatever I've done was
for the good of my players , the
program and the university. "
Driesell did object , however, to
university statistics on graduations of basketball players that
differ from his.
At a press conference Tuesday ,
Driesell defended his academic
policies and said he had an 81
percent graduation rate in his 17
years at Mary land .
According to the university ,
who unlike Driesell counts
transfers and players who leave
early to turn professions!, the
graduation rate for players who
entered from 1975 to 198 1 (the
81 class graduated in 1985) is 56
percent.
Of the university 's figures, he
said , "I don 't think it paints a
clear picture of my 17 years . I
think I have a commendable
record in my career. "
Heibert said Driesell' called
her. "He felt I should be using
his figures , " she said , but the
university is merel y using the
same formula for calculating
athletes' graduation rates as for
those of all students.
The criteria are also those used by the 63-member College
Football Association; all incoming scholarshi p athletes are
counted.
Driesell's academic policies
have been the subject of scrutiny
since revelations following Bias '
death that he was 21 credits short
of graduation , and that five of 12
players had failed their spring
semester. Driesell acknowledged
he was unhappy with the
academic performance of his
players last year.
"I' m not apolog izing for what
I've done," he said. "I was upset
about last year, but I' ve been here
17 years , and that 's just two
semesters out of 34. We 've done
some things that should help them
do a whole lot better. "
Driesell's contract with Reebok
and his relationahip with agentattorney Fentress of Advantage
International have been questioned by the grand jury investi gating
Bias' death .
Bias was also represented by
Fentress and had agreed to a contract with Reebok shortl y before

University of Maryland coach
Lefty Driesell said Wednesday he
has turned over all of his endorsement contracts to Chancellor John
B. Slaughter and "welcomes"
the on- and off-campus investigations into his basketball program .
Driesell , who Tuesday broke a
two-month silence to defend his
policies in the aftermath of star
Len Bias' cocaine-induced death ,
said he has turned over his contracts , including his agreement
with the Reebok shoe company ,
to Francis Stark, a former provost
of the College of Agricultural and
Life Sciences.
Stark is conducting a special investigation for Slaughter.
"They 've got all my contracts , " Driesell said . "Anything
I've got. Past , present , future . I
welcome the investigation. They
know everything, and that doesn't
bother me. If I had done
something wrong, then I might be
worried. "
Driesell has nine years remaining on a 10-year contract , but his
status at the university has been
in question throughout the ongoing investigations into Bias' collapse June 19 in his dormitory
room.
Slaughter said he will not make
any personnel decisions until he
has received a report from
university task forces looking into
academic performance of athletes
and drug use on campus, as well
as a report from the Prince
George's County, Md. grand jury
investigating Bias' death .
He also asked that Stark conduct a separate inquiry into the
basketball program on his behalf.
The academic task force report
has been completed and will be
delivered to Slaughter Thursday ,
university spokesman Roz
Heibert said.
Driesell said he had met with
Stark and had no objections to the
inquiry. He also said he does not
object to the task forces , which
have been in effect for almost two
months.
"If you have any integrity you
don 't worry about investigations," Driesell said . "This
hasn't worried me one bit because
I have integrity, my program has
