Senate passes massive spending
bill: includes aid to Contras
by Sara Fritz
LA-Times Washington Post Service
The Senr.te Thursday passed a
record $576 billion omnibus
spending measure that funds all
government agencies in fiscal
1987 and provides President
Reagan with military aid to the
Nicaraguan rebels for the first
time in nearly three years .
The mammoth House-passed
measure cleared the Senate by
voice vote, but did not immediately go to the president's
desk because of a number of
lingering, minor disputes between
the two chambers—including a
bitter , parochial battle over
whether the government should
continue buying the T-46 trainer
plane, manufactured in Long
Island , N.Y.
A filibuster by Sen. Alfonse M.
D'Amato, R-N.Y., seeking' to
preserve the T-46 threatened to
delay final enactment of the bill

the seventh annual ColumbiaMontour Women's Conference,
to be held on the campus of
Bloomsburg University on Saturday, April'll , 1987.
The day-long event, featuring
over seventy workshops, films ,
and speakers on a varity of issues,
is eagerly anticipated each year
by hundreds of area women of all
abges and interests . The conference provides a unique opportunity for participants to examine
new perspectives , exchange
ideas, and develop new skills.
"Women On The Move" has
been chosen as the theme for the
'87 conference by the Steering
Committee, led by Sherry
Williams, in her second year as
Conference Coordinator. The
committee is responsible for planning and running the day 's activities. Members are all
volunteers, ranging from the
"founding mothers" who envisioned and created the first conference in 1980 to women who
first attended last year and had
such a good time they signed up
to help out this year. The steering committee members and subcommittee chairs are: Marilyn
Brill (Outstanding Women
Awards), Carol Ciampi (Sponsors), Sharon Clemson (Exhibit s),m Sandy Crique and
Shirley Raminez (Schools Program), Laurie McCants (Program
and Publicity) ; Mary Ann
McLaughlin (Facilities), DJoan
Mosier (Registration and
Finance), Carol Rein (Duplication and Design), Linda Badami,
Moira Creasy, Nancy Dennis,
Terry Jacques, Roberta Kistler,

Florence Thompson , Arlene
Varner , and Cathy Zarillo.
Any one wishing to join the
Steering Committee is still
welcome . Contact Sherry
Williams, 387-0391, for further
information. Any one wishing to
offer a workshop on a topic of interest to women may call Laurie
McCants, 784-5530.
Nominations are now being accepted for the Outstanding
Women Awards to be presented

It was the biggest single spending measure in the history of the
country, amounting to more than
the U.S. government spent in all
the years from 1789 through
1949. The 1,200-page, eight-inch
thick bill weighs more than 18
pounds and is designed to take the
place of all 13 separate funding
bills that Congress normally
passes to fund individual
agencies.
While it contains many items
Reagan opposes, the president is
expected to sign the measure in
large part because it gives him the
$100 million he has long sought
for the Nicaraguan rebels , known
as contras. It is the first military
aid that Congress has approved
for the contras since learning in
early 1984 that the CIA had mined a Nicaraguan harbor.
Opponents of contra aid made
no effort to block passage of the
bill, even though many of them
were furious about the apparent
involvement of Reagan administration officials—including
Vice President George Bush—in
a private effort to supply the contras. Instead , Sen. Tom Harkin ,
D-Iowa, offered a resolution requiring Reagan to report to Congress on the extent of U.S. involvement did not come to light
until last week, when the
Nicaraguans shot down a contra
supply plane and captured an
American survivior , Eugene
Hasenfus, who announced that he
was working for the CIA.
The spending bill authorizes
the CIA to run the contra-aid program, which has also been prohibited by Congress since 1984.
Although lawmakers joked
about the size and weight of the
omnibus spending bill, many saw
it as a symbol of their failure to
control costs and reduce the
federal deficit. It was the first

BU mini-courses remain op en
time that Congress has entered into a new fiscal year without passing even one of the 13 separate
appropriations bills that normally fund agencies of the
government.
Since fiscal 1987 began Oct. 1,
Congress has passed four stopgap
spending bills while trying to
complete work on the long-term
measure. The last of those
measures was to expire at 12:01
a.m. Friday, leaving the government technically unfunded
thereafter.
At the same time , the
lawmakers claimed to be making
some modest progress in the battle of the budget. Sen. Pete V.
Domenici, R-N.M., chairman of
the Senate Budget Committee,
released a study showing that
total federal spending as adjusted
for inflation would be cut 2.3 percent between fiscal 1986 and
1987~the largest drop since
1955-under the terms of this bill.
But the reduction could be
eliminated if, as expected , Congress passes supplemental spending measures next year, or if
economic conditions change.
The final spending bill provides
about $290 billion for defense , or
just slightly less than the Congress authorized in a separate
Pentagon measure Wednesday .
The most serious disagreement
between the two bills involved the
T-46 trainer.
The Pentagon measure
eliminated funding for the T-46
trainer plane; the larger bill
restores the money, even though
it was not requested by the Air
Force.
When Senate Armed Service
Committee Chairman Barry
Goldwater, R-Ariz. moved to
delete the T-46 money from the
larger bill , D'Amato promptly
launched a filibuster designed to
save his home-state project, a
product of Fairchild Industries.
Many senators facing reelection Nov. 4 were angered that
the D'Amato filibuster was delaying final adjournment, prohibiting
them from going home to campaign. But D'Amato, himself up
for re-election, was undeterred by
his colleagues' hostility .
After two hours of filibuster ,
the Senate rejected, 69-21, an effort by Mark D. Hatfield, ROre., chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee, to halt
the filibuster.

Nuclear-f ree world: a practical vision
The overwhelming threat facing
America is Soviet nuclear weapons
Guest Column
by Richard J. Barnet
LA Times-Washington Post Service
The Reykjavik summit collapsed because President Reagan
refused to see his vision of a
defense in the sky for an agreement to reduce nuclear arms on
Earth.
The United States surely would
have been more secure had the
Soviets cut half their missiles and
bombers within five years in
return for a similar cut in our own
strateg ic forces and a mutual promise to confine research on the
Strateg ic Defense Initiative to the
laboratory
for 10 > ears.
Moreover, the Soviet ' s moved to
the president ' s position by agreeing to the principle urged on them
to get rid of all means of delivering nuclear weapons in 10 years .
The president ' s vision of a
world without nuclear weapons
that would be protected by SDI
has insp ired considerable skepticism. .American politicians ,
generals and strateg ists term the
idea '"just propaganda. " The
hard-line president , they say , was
merel y preempting for himself
and his party the public longing
for an end to nuclear terror.
The skepticism is justified. It
is hard to believe that a president
w i t h such great faith in
technology and so little trust in
the Soviets means what he says.
But his vision of a nuclear-free
world is not wrong.
The conventional wisdom is
that we are doomed to live
forever with nuclear weapons
because "the bomb cannot be
uninvented " and the world would
be "instable" if we did not live
under instant nuclear terror.
Somebody could cheat.
The overwhelming threat facing the United States is Soviet
nuclear weapons. Because of the
destructiveness of even one such
weapon , national security is not
possible until the Soviet stockpile
virtuall y is eliminated. This issue
is not whether such a world
would be absolutely safe—it
would not be—but whether the
risks of real disarmament would
t , ... .,.
. .,
_ .. ., reduction.
_ .. .. .. It,. ..literall
, for
. radical
. ,. y
be less than the present risks and
the horrendous world of Buck
Rogers weapons on the horizon.
However , it could be a far safer
world if the president 's vision
were broadened to deal with the
pracitical objections:
We need thousands of nuclear
weapons to balance Soviet conventional superiority in Europe.
The way to deal with that problem is to negotiate mutual
balance reductions in Europe ,
with Europeans taking greater
responsibility for their own efense
by conventioanl means. The
United States could help by
negotiating the denuclearization ,
troop and tank reductions and a
generally lower state of mobilization on both si,des.
Europe cannot rely on nuclear
threats for security, for the threats
guarantee an arms race and alarm
the population.The president 's vision requires the United States to
come to terms with reality :
Nuclear weapons are not
weapons in either a military or
political sense, for they cannot be
used without destroying what
they are intended to defend . Their
use is irrational , and threats to use
them therefore are incredible. If ,
after the years of hullabaloo about
the intermediate-range missiles in
Europe, both sides at Reykjavik
appeared willing to take all of
them out , why should significant
agreements to reduce conventional arms be out of reach? After
nuclear weapons have been cut 50
percent, further reductions should
be tied to progress in conventional arms reduction.
Someone could hide a bomb .
That is true now. A nation with
borders passable enough to let
billions of dollars of illegal drugs
slip through each year would be
vulnerable to nuclear weapons
smuggled in a packing case, even
if the Astrodome in the sky worked perfectly.
But there is a difference between a world of 60,000 nuclear
weapons or even a world of
30,000, and a one in which a few
weapons might escape the
verification system that would
surely be a part of any agreement
is the difference between life and
death for the nation , and probably
for the planet.
The whole purpose of arms
reduction is to create new incentives that would transform the
political relationship between the
superpowers. The Soviets would
have a powerful stake in maintaining a far-reaching agreement
that was fair to both sides, for it
would mean that they were no
longer minutes away from total
devastation.
Of course a madman could
come to power anywhere, but
concealing a few bombs for
blackmail would be an unpromising strategy for the Soviets. They
could not be sure, indeed , might
well assume, that the United
States had cheated , too.
The knowledge for making
bombs would remain , along with
the threat of retribution. Zero
stockpiles would , of course , be
premised on the other nuclear
powers joining in. Real disarmament would create the best possible political climate for
discouraging non-nuclear powers
from making bombs.
In a world free of nuclear
weapons the security problem
would look different . The mutual
fear of the superpowers would
dissolve only when they reestablish an alliance, not against
the Martians , as Reagan suggested to Gorbachev at Geneva ,
but to take on the specter of environmental
pollution ,
mismanagment of planetary
resources and a deteriorating
world economy , which threatens
the two nations slong with
everybody else.
Against the clear advantages of
a world without nuclear
stockpiles , the h ypothetical
nightmares should not paralyze us
to further drift to nuclear war but
should challenge our imagination
to think of incentives and nonnuclear detterents to keep peace.
In a nuclear-disarmed world a
truly non-nuclear version of SDI
might make sense. That would be
the only situation in which it
would.

rtUSBWD WTNESS re
Reagan made arms-control
proces s almost palatable
by George Will
Editorial Columnist
WASHINGTON~It was the
President 's finest hour.
In an odd place, at an inauspicious moment, he gave a
watching world the most important moment of presidential
decisiveness since President
Truman picked up Stalin 's
gauntlet and committed the nation
to the policy of containment. And
he gave the nation a clinic in
leadership: With his mind on
future generations , not the next
election , he spurned the shortterm applause that comes
automatically to any President
who signs any arms-control
agreement.
Iceland , where surveys reveal
that $5 percent of the population
believes in elves, was a suitable
place for a summit clamored for
by people who believe in arms
control as the key to taming the
Soviet Union. The Iceland summit ;was the; most successful U.S.
summit. Although the air is thick
with lamentations from armscontrol enthusiasts, the president
may almost have made the armscontrol "process" palatable to
people who are skeptical about its
utility and even its safety .
He did this by demonstrating
something that there were abundant reasons for doubting : He
demonstrated that a President can
go to a summit and dare to return
without an agreement.
Summitry is a part of the armscontrol "process." Summits have
Columnist labels bidding article 'ill-conceived'
by Tom Miller
Editorial Columnist
The latest bit of "investigative
reporting " by the one-man
Woodward and Bernstein at The
Voice, reports on the awarding of
a contract for lighting equipment
in Mitrani Hall.
The problems with this article
beg in with the by-line and are
compounded throug hout the
story . The writer , who obviously has not the slightest notion of
the mechanics of competitive
contract bidding, begins by making a ludicrous statement that
competitive bidding has been
"eliminated" and proceeds then
to make the case for the other
side.
The fact is , as the reporter admits , that invitations for bids
were sent to five firms.
Moreover , the names of the firms
were supplied not by the supposedly biased consultant who
helped to prepare the specifications but by Don McCullough ,
director of Physical Plant and
Energy Management.
The author of this ill-conceived
article claims the ' 'writing of the
specif; cations... resulted in the
elimination of all but one
manufacturer." In fact this often
happens.
When the U.S. Navy wants a
nuclear aircraft carrier , there is
but one shipyard in the world
which can fill the contract. The
people in charge of the theater
department wanted a particular
kind of lighting equipment. A
single theater student apparently
disagreed with their choice and
therein I humbly suggest, lies the
origin of this tale.
' 'Student at Large1 ' reported he
interviewed spokesmen from
several firms invited to bid . They
cite various reasons for declining
the invitation but their remarks
are most noteworthy in that at no
time do they mention that their
decision not to bid had anything
to do with specifications.

something here , did The Voice

come to be regarded as events
where arms-control are consummated . A dangerous asymmetry
in this process is that Western
public opinion is the only public
opinion that matters in this process , and Western publics have
never met an arms-control agreement they did not like . (Never
mind that they have never met an
arms-control agreement that
seriously controlled arms.)
It may be the case that , by venturing to Iceland for that fast-food
summit, the President strode into what the Soviet side fancied
was a clever trap~a heads-wewin , tails-you-lose situtation.
They would either kill the
Strategic Defense Initiative of
vilify it as the only impediment
to arms reductions so comprehensive as to constitute the termination of the Cold War.
However , it is almost certainly wrong to think, as many even
in the administration may think ,
that important agreements really
were within reach regarding
intermediate-range and strategic
missiles. It is probable that the
Soviet offers and expressions of
interest were designed in large
measure to contribute to the orchestrated euphoria , the collapse
of which was counted on to
deepen resentment of SDI. And
if the President had , to the
Soviet 's surprise , killed SDI to
get Soviet agreement to cuts, it is
probable that many of the cuts
would have been vitiated in years
of negotiations about details , in
cheating, and in deployments of
new weapons not covered by any
Iceland agreements .
One reason for believing that
the Iceland outcome was the one
the Soviet side aimed for is that
their crucial demand was an act
of brazen overreaching. They
sought a revision of the ABM
treaty—a "strengthening" of the
treaty that would have suffocated
SDI by confining research to the
laboratory. The Soviets could not

by suddenly scrapping a program
that he has advocated with the
most intense moral and prudential arguments.
But , then, brazenness is not in
To the Editor
short supply in the Soviet regime
that speaks of "strengthening " an
ABM treaty it is flagrantly
violating, a reg ime that
stigmatizes SDI as highly imprudent and immoral , yet has spent
far more on defensive systems
than has the United States.
Certainly the Iceland outcome
will enable Gorbachev to fan the
flames of anti-Americanism
among the European left. But it
is equally certain that no President can make policy hostage to
the hopeless and squalid project
of trying to dampen Europe's appeasement reflex.
In the network 's rush to judgment on Iceland , the editorializing was as clear as it was unconscious. The outcome was called a "collapse" of the summit,
a collapse that dashed hopes of
"progress " and knocked U.S.Soviet relations "off the rails. "
The word "collapse" implies
calamity; the word "progress" is
defined exculsively in terms of
the; achievement ,of agreements .
And 'what is one to "make of the
rails metaphor? What rails
were the relationship on before
Iceland?
"Collapse " implies disorder .
The Iceland outcome was an
orderly result of an orderl y
assessment. That is progress of
the highest sort-progress toward
realism.
Perhaps the Iceland outcome
will confer the ancillary blessing
of putting an end to the nonsense
about the President and the First
Lady being mesmerized by armscontrol agreements as guarantors
of his "place in history. " Both
he and she know that every President since the onset of the U.S.Soviet arms-control process 17
years ago has achieved an armscontrol agreement (counting , as
one should , the Ford-Brezhnev
agreement at Vladivostok) . Mr.
and Mrs . Reagan know that it is
nonsense on stilts to say that
arms-control agreements sealed
for Nixon , Ford and Carter enviable "places in history."
The arms-control "process "
has indeed now given this President the high place in history that
was waiting for the first President
who would show that it is possible to "just say no. "
Honest living requires
expression of feelings
Dear Editor,
After reading an article in the
last issue of The Voice, "Toleration plays key role... ", I have
come to realize, upon reflection,
how much I agree with the importance of freedom of expression.
Freedom of expression is not only
a constitutional right, but a
necessity for an honest human
experience.
I'm sure all of us have experienced the many oppressing ,
expression-squashing double
binds found too abundantly in our
society. ''You will eat your peas
and like them. " "You have to
love me. I'm your whoever. "
What if you find yourself in
these situations? What are your
alternatives? Can you make
yourself eat your peas? Can you
make yourself love someone? Or
can you just stand your ground
and shout "I don't like my peas,
I hate my peas, and I never loved Uncle Fred!"
This second alternative would
most assuredly hurt someone 's
feelings , especially Uncle Fred.
But what would be the good in
pretending? You'd probably .end
up loving your peas or you Uncle Fred less.
Instead of keeping all these1 incongruities pent up inside us, let
the other guy know. At least this
way, we'll all understand each
other. So we get into good,
wholesome fights every now and
then. It 's the price that must be
paid for living an honest life.

by Jennifer Brelsford
for the Voice
Many new programs are being
established in the math department, according to Dr. James
Pomfert, chairman of the Math
Department.
The Actuarial Science Program
is a new minor which is applied
to the insurance industry. It involves determining how many
people with health insurance will
die in a given year, and how
much to charge for a certain
policy.
A series of 10 tests are required
before a student can become an
actuary. Bloomsburg University
teaches enough math to enable
students to take the first three
tests. Most people take the re-

Harry Haigler, a former student
of Cohen's and now an assistant
professor at the University of
California , Irvine Medical
Center.
Levi-Montalcini , who is
popularly known in Italy as
"signora of the cells," holds both
Italian and American citizenship.
She returned to Italy after retiring from the university in 1977 .
She is the fourth woman to win
the Nobel Prize in medicine,
since it was first awarded in
1901. She never married and
lives with her sister, and artist.
"She is a very tough lady , all
steel from one end to the other ,''
said Ralph A. Bradshaw, chairman of the department of
biological chemistry at the
University of California , Irvine
Medical Center, who is a friend
and colleague of both LeviMontalcini and Cohen. "She did
a lot of this research at a time
when women had a hard time
succeding in science. "
Cohen, described by colleagues
as a modest, soft-spoken man
who smokes a corncob pipe and
paces for hours while trying to
solve research problems , is married and has three children.
' 'Stanley does science the way
you are taught to do it in the textbooks," Bradshaw said . "Most
of his seminal observations would
have been missed by somebody
else who wasn't as careful. "

An American biochemist and
an
Italian-American
neurobiologist were named cowinners of the 1986 Nobel Prize
in medicine for discovering proteins, known as "growth factors, " that play a key role in
regulating cell and organ
development in animals and
humans .
In naming Stanley Cohen, 63,
of Vanderbilt University Medical
Center , and Dr. Rita LeviMontalcini, 77, of the Institute of
Cell Biology in Rome, the Nobel
Assembl y of Stockholm 's
Karolinska Institute said their
research "may increase our
understanding of many disease
states," such as Alzheimer's
disease and cancer.
The study of such growth factors has increased understanding
of one of the enduring mysteries
of life: how individual cells
develop into complex organ
systems.
The two, who last month also
won Lasker basic medical
research awards , will share a
record prize of 2 million Swedish
kroner , or about $290,000. The
awards are all the more poignant
because of the personal obstacles
each researcher has had to
overcome.
Levi-Montalcini, a Jew, carried out experiments in her
bedroom while hiding from the
Nazis during World War II, after
being forced to quit her university post in Turin , where she
grew up.
Erling Norrby , professor at
Sweden's Karolinska Institute,
which awards the medicine prize,
said that she "made a laboratory
out of her bedroom, sharpened
the knives herself and once in a
while the eggs she used became
scrambled eggs after the experiment."
The results of her clandestine
research in developmental
biology were published in Swiss
medical journals and came to the
attention of Viktor Hamburger of
the Washington University in St.
Louis. Hamburger , who studied
the nervous system of chick embryos, invited her to join his
laboratory in 1947.
Cohen suffered from polio as
a child and continues to walk with
a limp.
"It feels good to get world
recognition for something you 've
been working on for 30 years,"
Cohen said in a telephone interview from Nashville, Tenn.
"When we started, we were
following a little trail of interesting observations. We had no
expectation it would open up a
whole field of research ."
It was at Washington University that Levi-Montalcini met
Cohen, and the two worked
together for seven years in the
1950s. Levi-Montalcini had been
trying to isolate a nerve growth
factor , or NGF, which she had
found in mouse tumor cells, and
she asked Cohen to help.
The two researchers subsequently isolated and purified
more potent nerve growth factors
from snake venom and the
salivary gland of mice. That lent
credence to their belief that such
factors play a crucial role in the
maturation of nerve cells.
In 1962, while studying nerve
growth factor from mice, Cohen
accidently detected another
growth factor that stimulates cells
to divide .
He found that extracts of the
gland , when injected into
newborn mice, caused their
eyelids to open sooner than usual.
Subsequently, he purified mouse
"epidermal growth factor " and ,
in 1975, isolated its human
counterpart.
Initially, such research received skeptical reviews, and some
even suggested that growth factors did not exist or were of trivial
importance.
But in the last decade, the role
of the growth factors has become
increasingly accepted. Scientists
have studied those growth factors, and more than a dozen
others, to learn how cells communicate with each other. Such
research has led to better
understanding of the molecular
basis for cancer and degenerative
diseases of the brain.
It has also been found that
growth factors are structurally
related to other important hormones, like insulin.
In the early 1980s, British
scientists, studying animal tumor
viruses, discovered a structural
relationship between another
growth factor and proteins involved in the development of
some cancers, a finding that has
stimulated additional interest in
the field .
Growth factors have now been
found in a variety of human
tumor cells as well, according to

Children's theater for adults too
Too many channels
my makeshift corner , I was half
buried under paper when a nearby boy and girl tagteam decided
to play a scene from some poap,
combining elements of Miumi
Vice and The Waltons.
I felt the sudden need for a
General Hospital , but there was
no one around save a couple AH
Star Wrestlers grappling with
some blonde.
Lacking any patience, I gave
up trying to play Father Knows
Best and shifted gear into The
Equalizer.
But it was too late . The ATeam, 'A' having nothing to do
with academics, suddenly attacked from the right , pretending to
be pledges from some fraternity.
I, now in the middle of what
appeared to be a Family Feud
from the Twilight Zone, clicked
my heals three times and landed
in May berry . Gomer Pyle , who
sat across the table from me, was
more than I could stand.- So I
pretended to be invisible and ended up on Soap, let alone drugs.
Completely burned out and
running out of places to hide, I
left the library once more in
search of strength, but neither she
nor Leonard Nemoy were
anywhere to be found.
Back in my apartment, I kicked the television , turned on my
stereo and sat for a short rest
before attempting to study.
The next thing I knew it was
the following day and Good Morning America was standing in my
doorway, asking if I had any idea
what time it was.
I said something about Howdy
Doodv and went back to bed.
Don Chomiak
Burned out! One Caucasian
male brain. Lately it seems as I
finish one project , another even
bigger plants its ugly self on my
doorstep.
What I would give for the opportunity to go, to a single party
and enjoy standing in a sardine
can , fighting for a beer and taking that spectacular brewery bath.
The chance seems to always
escape me. Fortunately, this
situation also leaves me with no
time to endure television.
In my constant search for
knowled ge, truth , and a free
meal, there is no time to waste.
Having to navigate the incredible undertow of bodies and withstand the constant static of voices
buzzing around me, I fight my
way through the library, searching for that treasure known as
a quiet corner.
Finall y, sitting in the closest
thing to a corner I could find,
which happened to be in the
center of the room , I unpacked
my heavyweight bag.
I then began to dig into the
clay 's worth of work I had accumulated , having told myself I'd
do it in the morning and having
slept 'till the afternoon.

Program Board gives
experience to students
Over 200 events were brought
to Bloomsburg University last
year courtesy of the Kehr Union
Program Board , an organization
designed to provide BU with
entertainment and student
activities.
The group is an organization
that allows students to have a say
in what entertainment and programs are brought to campus. It
is open to all students who are
interested.
Not only does Program Board
provide opportunity to choose the
programs , but it also provides a
learning experience that one can 't
get in the classroom. Students can
learn how to deal with all types
of people: other students , faculty, and even professionals; how
to organize ideas , and how to
develop responsibility and leadership skills.
Program Board consists of an
advisor , four officers , and ten
committees. Each committee is
headed by a chairperson who
keeps the committee organized .
Each member of the committee is
responsible for carry ing out the
ideas produced. The ten commit-
tees that make up Program Board
are : Bingo, Dance/Mini Concert ,
Film/Widescreen , Hospitality ,
Minority Affairs , Public Relations , Publicity , Recreation ,
Soundstage, and Special Events .
Program Board consists of
"students programming for
students ", says Jimmy Gilliland ,
Program^ Board' s Advisor. He
says "You learn a lot about
yourself as well as the people you
work with ," and one can even
have fun doing it. It can also provide students with "concrete
evidence that you have a
background in a particular field"
says Stephanie Simmons ,
chairperson of Public Relations
committee.
Program Board provides you
with practice in working in a
business oriented atmosphere.
Mike Harvey, chairperson of
Minority Affairs , says it enables
students to "strengthen your
decision-making skills arid learn
how to budget your time. It provides you with a challenge and
new insights about the work
scene. "

Here is the chance to test yourself on your awareness of the facts
concerning AIDS. The best way to prevent yourself from getting
AIDS is to arm yourself with all the facts regarding the syndrome.
Ignorance of the facts can cause unnecessary fear. At the same time,
using your knowledge, and applying it in social situations is the best
protection you can provide for yourself.
Circle (T) if the statement is true and (F) if it false. There are ten
statements, therefore if you score 90-100 your knowledge of AIDS
is excellent, 80 good , 70-79 fair , but below 70, you had better brush
up on your AIDS education. Pamphlets and educational materials
on AIDS can be found at the University Health Center.
1. T F AIDS is short for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome.
2. T F There have been no proven cases in which AIDS has spread
by casual contact.
3. T F There is a cure for AIDS.
4. T F You could get AIDS if you give blood for the Red Cross.
5. T F Heterosexuals can 't get AIDS, only homosexuals.
6. T F There is a fool proof blood test for AIDS.
7. T F AIDS is not an easy disease to get. The virus is a frag ile virus.
8. T F AIDS is transmitted by intimate sexual contact and exposure
to contaminated blood.
9. T F Condoms have been shown to block passage of the AIDS virus.
10. T F Many of the early symptoms of AIDS are similiar to those
of common illnesses such as the "flu. "

Just because the Theater for
Young Audiences is theatre for
kids, doesn't mean that the performances don't have to be as
good. Marci Woodruff , director
of the child drama program on
campus, says, "I think children
are a much more honest and intelligent audience than adults .
There 's no waiting for the
reviews to come out . I mean, you
know on the spot . If you bore 800
children , you may as well face the
wrath of God!" says Woodruff.
Children 's Theater , or Theater
for Young Audiences is not
children performing theater for
children , it is adults performing
theater for children. "This is a
distinction a lot of people aren 't
aware of ," says Woodruff.
Relatively new to Bloomsburg,
the child drama program was
started by Woodruff three years
ago and has proven to be a real
success!
"Every fall we do a big
mainstage production either in
Haas (Auditorium) or Carver
(Hall) that we run a series of
of the college population chooses
to drink .
The founder of Alcohol
Awareness Week at BU is Shell
Lundahl, a counselor from the
BU Counseling Center. She plans
all of the activities for the week,
however Lundahl pointed out that
since six years ago when she
started the activities, residence
life and the health center have
been planning numerous programs to compliment those offered by the Center.
One of Lundahl's major concerns is that college students are
not as knowledgeable about
alcohol as they sometimes claim
to be. Tonight 's program deals
with dispelling some of the myths
that are attached to drinking. For
example, is it true that people tell
the absolute truth while under the
influence. Listen to Neil Murphy,
the Executive Director of White
Deer Treatment Center, for the
answer to this and many other
questions.
Tomorrow mght, the subject of
drinking and driving wil be
discussed by Bob Thomas, a
Drug and Alcohol specialist.
For more details and a complete listing of events and programs to take place throughout
Alcohol Awareness Week , see
the boxed schedule on the top of

This year's Alcohol Awareness
Week is being co-sponsored by
BACCHUS (Boost Alcohol Conscieousness Concerning the
Health of University Students), a
student organization which promotes responsible drinking an
decision making.
BACCHUS will have an

Program Board gives
experience to students
From page 6.
Program Board gives students
the opportunityto work with professionals. Kerry Desmond ,
president of Program Board says,
"It provides you with experience
in the real business world, but in
a more relaxed atmosphere. "
In a sense students are running
their own business. They are in
a partnership with the other
members on the committee and
have a limited budget to work
with. They are responsible for
providing the student body with
entertainment. Each must follow
all the steps involved in producinp a .product and getting it out to
the public.
Sometimes students also learn
how to deal with the disappointments that occur.
Program Board is a voluntary
organization that enables handson experience. It "helps you to
grow and learn the things you
have to do in the real world,"says
Robert Francis, chairperson of
Recreation. "You students get
out of it what you put in it. "
Francis adds that by getting involved in Program Board ,
students learn alot about
themselves and the world around
them

Answers to AIDS Knowledge Test
1. TRUE AIDS is short for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome .
2. TRUE You cannot get AIDS from someone you go to class with ,
from a toilet seat, or someone you work with.
3. FALSE There is no cure for AIDS. The new medication for AIDS
that has been publicized , has been able to prolong the lives of some
patients , and is now being used on people with pneumonia , that is
often part of the syndrome.
4. FALSE You cannot get AIDS from donating blood. Blood banks
and other blood collection centers use sterile equipment and disposable
needles. The need for blood is acute, so if you are not in the high
risk group for AIDS, continue to give blood .
5. FALSE It is possible to get AIDS if you have heterosexual contact with a bisexual man, with more than one sex partner , an IV drug
user or an IV blood recipient, who has AIDS. You should know your
sex partner well before engaging in sexual activity. Involvement in
caring relationships creates an environment for comfortable discussions of safety and health.
6. FALSE There is a blood test for the antibody to HTLV III virus.
It is not a test for AIDS. There are many limitations to the test, which
can give false positive and false negative results .
7. TRUE AIDSVirus is easily transferrred from one person to another
in sexual activities that involve the exchange of body fluids.
8. TRUE Again , there has been no proven case in which AIDS has
been transmitted by casual contact of any kind. Objects touched or
handled by people with AIDS are not contaminated , with the exceptions of objects contaminated with blood , such as tooth brushes ,
tweezers , or razors.
9. TRUE Condoms have been shown to block passage of the AIDS
virus. To be effective, condoms should be applied before foreplay .
Condoms also effectively prevent the passage of other sexually
transmitted diseases , and unwanted pregnancies as well.
10. TRUE This again , true. Many symptoms would be similiar to
those of the flu. However, the symptoms of AIDS are more severe
and last longer. Some of these are: recurring fever; night sweats ;
a persistent cough; persistent enlarged lymph nodes in the neck , armpits , and groin; bruising easily; and persistent diarrhea.

Huskies trample Mansf ield f orf if t hvictory
BU cruises to 51-26 Homecoming victory
by Mike Mullen
Staff Writer
The Bloomsburg University
Huskies used a strong passing attack coupled with a standout effort on the ground by runningback Tom Martin to demolish
the Mansfield Mounties 51-26
Saturday in front of 6300 alumni , students and parents gathered
for Homecoming weekend at BU.
The Huskies piled up 441 yards
of total offense , including 305 in
the air and 136 on the ground. Jay
DeDea passed for 280 yards and
two touchdowns, while scoring
himself on runs of one and seven
yards.
Martin helped out by picking
up 116 yards on 19 carries for a
6.1
average
and
three
touchdowns on runs of one, five
and 11 yards.
Although Mansfield won the
toss, they deferred to the second
half and the Huskies started out
at their own 33 yard line after the
kickoff.
A 50-yard pass from DeDea to
Jeff Sparks on BU' s first play
fro m scrimmage, which took a
diving tackle to prevent a
touchdown , set up the first score.
Following two penalties and a
ten-yard run by Martin , DeDea
ran the option in for the score
with 13:18 remaining . From
there , Bloomsburg never looked
back.
After a seven minute drive that
resulted in a blocked field goal ,
Tom Martin dives for one of his three touchdowns of the day. Voice photo by Alex Schlllemans.
Mansfield gave the ball back to
BU at the Mounties' 20 yard line.
On second and two after an
eight yard gain by Martin, DeDea
hit Jeff Bowles on a crossing pattern , and with a spectacular run ,
Bowles turned it into another
Husky touchdown with 5:29 remaining in the first quarter. The
kick was good and BU led 13-0.
On the ensuing kickoff ,
Mingrone lofted an onside kick
and Mansfield was caught napping. Schutton recovered for BU ,
but the Huskies were unable to
score and Tim Chamberlain
punted.
The Huskies then foiled a
Mansfield fake punt attempt and
took over on the Mounties ' 35.
Six plays later , DeDea hit Ken
Liebel with a 19-yard touchdown
pass but the kick failed and BU' s
lead was 19-0.
The Huskies defense again shut
down the Mansfield offense as
Wes Cook had a sack and a partially blocked punt.
The Huskies took over in good
field position , and runs of seven
and 14 yards by Martin got the
Huskies close. A DeDea keeper
resulted in yet another Husky
score and the score was 26-0 after
Mingrone 's kick.
On Mansfield's next possession , an Al Royster sack resulted
in a fumble and Jim Tyson
recovered to give BU the ball
deep in Mansfield territory .
DeDea and Martin responded
with a perfectly executed option

istence of the USFL in the
business of professional football.
One plan calls for the NFL to
split the NFC and AFC into
separate economic competitors .
This plan would limit each division to one network for five
years.
It would require the television
rights to the Super Bowl to be
sold through competitive bidding .
Currently , CBS, NBC and ABC
broadcast the game on a rotation
basis.
The plan also calls for the
establishment of three separate
drafts-the NFC, the AFC and the
USFL. A second plan would limit
the NFL to two networks for five
years and would preclude the
NFL from telecasting in more
than one Sunday afternoon time
slot.
The third plan calls for a courtordered expansion of the NFL to
the USFL.
Joe Browne, NFL director of
communications said , "Based on
trial testimony, their third listed
option—forced expansion-is really their first option . The jury ruled down the line on our behalf
regarding the television isue. Certainly based on this jury 's findings there is no reason to seek
a restructuring of our league. "
USFL asks court
to break up NFL
L.A. Times-Washington Post News Service
NEW YORK- The United
States Football League, still
fighting for its existence, asked
a federal judge Thursday to break
up the National Football League
or else order the NFL to expand
to 10 USFL cities.
The motion was made to U.S.
District Judge Peter K. Leisure,
who presided at the USFL's recent $1.69 billion dollar antitrust
suit against the NFL. The jury in
the 10-week trial found that the
NFL was a monopoly, but awarded the USFL only $1 in damages,
trebled under antitrust law to $3.

Leisure rejected a motion by
the USFL two weeks ago for a
new trial asking increased
damages, he also turned down an
NFL motion to overturn the
jury 's finding that the NFL was
a monopoly .
The USFL Thursday asked
Leisure to break up the basic
structure of the NFL. USFL attorneys submitted three plans to

NFL off one of the three commercial networks, and all seeking drastic changes in the way the
NFL is set up, to assure the ex-
In addition , BU sophomore
Jeanne Cancelliere finished runnerup at fourth flight singles, losing to top-seeded Lynn Frye of
Clarion , while Husky freshman
Cathy Von Luehrte lost in the
semifinals to the eventual champion at third flight singles.
The Huskies ' first and second
flight singles players , Megan
Clarke and Cortlee Gerhart , after
winning early matches, were
ousted in the quarterfinals by the
eventual winners of their fli ghts.
"Better luck with the draw

and Martin scampered in for the
score . Mingrone added the extra
point to put BU ahead 33-0.
Chris Jobes took over the
quarterbacking for Mansfield and
promptly led his team downfield ,
finally completing an 11-yard
scoring toss to Fred Coleman.
The kick failed and BU led 33-6.
A 37-yard kick return by
Myers gave the Husky offense
good field position and five plays
later Tom Martin scored his second touchdown of the afternoon
on a one-yard dive. Mingrone
missed the kick and Bloomsburg
led 39-6 with 1:43 still remaining in the half.
Jobes again took his team to the
end zone, going the final three
yards by himself on a keeper. The
two-point conversion failed and
Bloomsburg went to the lockerroom with a comfortable 39-12
advantage.
Jobes began the second half for
Mansfield where he left off and
Robert Funderback broke
through for a touchdown on
fourth and one from the two-yard
line. Once again Mansfield was
victimized by a missed extra point
and the Huskies now led 39-18.
However, the next time Jobes got
the ball he made his first mistake
of the game.
BU linebacker Jake Williams
picked off a Jobes pass at
Mansfield' s 18 and returned it
seven yards to the 11.
Martin immediately ran 11
yards for his third touchdown and
BU led 45-18 with 5:50 remaining in the third quarter .
A fumble recovery by
Mansfield set up their next score
as Jobes found Pat Beckwith with
an 18-yard scoring toss. A successful two-point conversion
shaved BU's lead to 45-26.
Bloomsburg completed the
scoring later in the fourth quarter
as back-up quarterback Paul
Venesky threw a 25-yard scoring
pass to Sparks to end the scoring
at Bloomsburg 51 Mansfield 26.
Bloosmburg's defense caused
three Mansfield
fumbles
(recovering one) and one intercepted pass. In addition , they
were credited with a partially
blocked punt and field goal as
well as three sacks for a loss of
28 yards.
Bosox drop Mets 1-0
in Game 1 of Series
by Dave Sauter
Staff Writer
Saturday night marked the first
game of the 1986 World Series
as the Boston Red Sox invaded
Shea Stadium to face the New
York Mets .
Bruce Hurst pitched for the
Bosox while Ron Darling led the
Mets ' attack.
It was a game played to World
Series standards , as both teams
played scoreless ball for the first
six innings.
The 45 degree weather did not
seem to affect either pitcher as
both teams were held to less than
five hits for the first six innings.
Then, with Red Sox runners on
first and second , and one out in
the seventh , Rich Gedman hit a
sure double-play ball to Tim
Tuefel , only to have it roll
through his legs. Jim Rice scored
from second and the Red Sox led
1-0.
The Mets only chance to win
came in the bottom of the ninth
when Darryl Strawberry led-off
with a walk. Howard Johnson attempted to sacrifice him over but
failed , and Johnson stayed on
first. Danny Hee.p,struck out to
end the game.
Bruce Hurst was the winner
with ex-Met Calvin Schiraldi getting the save. Ron Darling absorded the loss for the Mets.
The Mets attempted to rebound
from the loss as Dwight Gooden
faced Roger Clemens in Game 2.
At press time the Mets were trailing the Sox 4-2 after four innings.
Game Notes- This was the first
time the Mets had been shut out
at home since John Tudor and the
Cardinals achieved it in
September of 1985...The Series
switches to Boston for games 3,4
and 5 starting Tuesday...The
Mets are batting .056 in the first
three innings in all seven postseason games.

bill: includes aid to Contras
by Sara Fritz
LA-Times Washington Post Service
The Senr.te Thursday passed a
record $576 billion omnibus
spending measure that funds all
government agencies in fiscal
1987 and provides President
Reagan with military aid to the
Nicaraguan rebels for the first
time in nearly three years .
The mammoth House-passed
measure cleared the Senate by
voice vote, but did not immediately go to the president's
desk because of a number of
lingering, minor disputes between
the two chambers—including a
bitter , parochial battle over
whether the government should
continue buying the T-46 trainer
plane, manufactured in Long
Island , N.Y.

Reagan opposes, the president is
expected to sign the measure in
large part because it gives him the
$100 million he has long sought
for the Nicaraguan rebels , known
as contras. It is the first military
aid that Congress has approved
for the contras since learning in
early 1984 that the CIA had mined a Nicaraguan harbor.
Opponents of contra aid made
no effort to block passage of the
bill, even though many of them
were furious about the apparent
involvement of Reagan administration officials—including
Vice President George Bush—in
a private effort to supply the contras. Instead , Sen. Tom Harkin ,
D-Iowa, offered a resolution requiring Reagan to report to Congress on the extent of U.S. involvement did not come to light
until last week, when the
Nicaraguans shot down a contra
supply plane and captured an
American survivior , Eugene
Hasenfus, who announced that he
was working for the CIA.
The spending bill authorizes
the CIA to run the contra-aid program, which has also been prohibited by Congress since 1984.
Although lawmakers joked
about the size and weight of the
omnibus spending bill, many saw
it as a symbol of their failure to
control costs and reduce the
federal deficit. It was the first

BU mini-courses remain op en
time that Congress has entered into a new fiscal year without passing even one of the 13 separate
appropriations bills that normally fund agencies of the
government.
Since fiscal 1987 began Oct. 1,
Congress has passed four stopgap
spending bills while trying to
complete work on the long-term
measure. The last of those
measures was to expire at 12:01
a.m. Friday, leaving the government technically unfunded
thereafter.
At the same time , the
lawmakers claimed to be making
some modest progress in the battle of the budget. Sen. Pete V.
Domenici, R-N.M., chairman of
the Senate Budget Committee,
released a study showing that
total federal spending as adjusted
for inflation would be cut 2.3 percent between fiscal 1986 and
1987~the largest drop since
1955-under the terms of this bill.
But the reduction could be
eliminated if, as expected , Congress passes supplemental spending measures next year, or if
economic conditions change.
The final spending bill provides
about $290 billion for defense , or
just slightly less than the Congress authorized in a separate
Pentagon measure Wednesday .
The most serious disagreement
between the two bills involved the
T-46 trainer.
The Pentagon measure
eliminated funding for the T-46
trainer plane; the larger bill
restores the money, even though
it was not requested by the Air
Force.
When Senate Armed Service
Committee Chairman Barry
Goldwater, R-Ariz. moved to
delete the T-46 money from the
larger bill , D'Amato promptly
launched a filibuster designed to
save his home-state project, a
product of Fairchild Industries.
Many senators facing reelection Nov. 4 were angered that
the D'Amato filibuster was delaying final adjournment, prohibiting
them from going home to campaign. But D'Amato, himself up
for re-election, was undeterred by
his colleagues' hostility .
After two hours of filibuster ,
the Senate rejected, 69-21, an effort by Mark D. Hatfield, ROre., chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee, to halt
the filibuster.

Nuclear-f ree world: a practical vision
The overwhelming threat facing
America is Soviet nuclear weapons
Guest Column
by Richard J. Barnet
LA Times-Washington Post Service
The Reykjavik summit collapsed because President Reagan
refused to see his vision of a
defense in the sky for an agreement to reduce nuclear arms on
Earth.
The United States surely would
have been more secure had the
Soviets cut half their missiles and
bombers within five years in
return for a similar cut in our own
strateg ic forces and a mutual promise to confine research on the
Strateg ic Defense Initiative to the
laboratory
for 10 > ears.
Moreover, the Soviet ' s moved to
the president ' s position by agreeing to the principle urged on them
to get rid of all means of delivering nuclear weapons in 10 years .
The president ' s vision of a
world without nuclear weapons
that would be protected by SDI
has insp ired considerable skepticism. .American politicians ,
generals and strateg ists term the
idea '"just propaganda. " The
hard-line president , they say , was
merel y preempting for himself
and his party the public longing
for an end to nuclear terror.
The skepticism is justified. It
is hard to believe that a president
w i t h such great faith in
technology and so little trust in
the Soviets means what he says.
But his vision of a nuclear-free
world is not wrong.
The conventional wisdom is
that we are doomed to live
forever with nuclear weapons
because "the bomb cannot be
uninvented " and the world would
be "instable" if we did not live
under instant nuclear terror.
Somebody could cheat.
The overwhelming threat facing the United States is Soviet
nuclear weapons. Because of the
destructiveness of even one such
weapon , national security is not
possible until the Soviet stockpile
virtuall y is eliminated. This issue
is not whether such a world
would be absolutely safe—it
would not be—but whether the
risks of real disarmament would
t , ... .,.
. .,
_ .. ., reduction.
_ .. .. .. It,. ..literall
, for
. radical
. ,. y
be less than the present risks and
the horrendous world of Buck
Rogers weapons on the horizon.
However , it could be a far safer
world if the president 's vision
were broadened to deal with the
pracitical objections:
We need thousands of nuclear
weapons to balance Soviet conventional superiority in Europe.
The way to deal with that problem is to negotiate mutual
balance reductions in Europe ,
with Europeans taking greater
responsibility for their own efense
by conventioanl means. The
United States could help by
negotiating the denuclearization ,
troop and tank reductions and a
generally lower state of mobilization on both si,des.
Europe cannot rely on nuclear
threats for security, for the threats
guarantee an arms race and alarm
the population.The president 's vision requires the United States to
come to terms with reality :
Nuclear weapons are not
weapons in either a military or
political sense, for they cannot be
used without destroying what
they are intended to defend . Their
use is irrational , and threats to use
them therefore are incredible. If ,
after the years of hullabaloo about
the intermediate-range missiles in
Europe, both sides at Reykjavik
appeared willing to take all of
them out , why should significant
agreements to reduce conventional arms be out of reach? After
nuclear weapons have been cut 50
percent, further reductions should
be tied to progress in conventional arms reduction.
Someone could hide a bomb .
That is true now. A nation with
borders passable enough to let
billions of dollars of illegal drugs
slip through each year would be
vulnerable to nuclear weapons
smuggled in a packing case, even
if the Astrodome in the sky worked perfectly.
But there is a difference between a world of 60,000 nuclear
weapons or even a world of
30,000, and a one in which a few
weapons might escape the
verification system that would
surely be a part of any agreement
is the difference between life and
death for the nation , and probably
for the planet.
The whole purpose of arms
reduction is to create new incentives that would transform the
political relationship between the
superpowers. The Soviets would
have a powerful stake in maintaining a far-reaching agreement
that was fair to both sides, for it
would mean that they were no
longer minutes away from total
devastation.
Of course a madman could
come to power anywhere, but
concealing a few bombs for
blackmail would be an unpromising strategy for the Soviets. They
could not be sure, indeed , might
well assume, that the United
States had cheated , too.
The knowledge for making
bombs would remain , along with
the threat of retribution. Zero
stockpiles would , of course , be
premised on the other nuclear
powers joining in. Real disarmament would create the best possible political climate for
discouraging non-nuclear powers
from making bombs.
In a world free of nuclear
weapons the security problem
would look different . The mutual
fear of the superpowers would
dissolve only when they reestablish an alliance, not against
the Martians , as Reagan suggested to Gorbachev at Geneva ,
but to take on the specter of environmental
pollution ,
mismanagment of planetary
resources and a deteriorating
world economy , which threatens
the two nations slong with
everybody else.
Against the clear advantages of
a world without nuclear
stockpiles , the h ypothetical
nightmares should not paralyze us
to further drift to nuclear war but
should challenge our imagination
to think of incentives and nonnuclear detterents to keep peace.
In a nuclear-disarmed world a
truly non-nuclear version of SDI
might make sense. That would be
the only situation in which it
would.

rtUSBWD WTNESS re
Reagan made arms-control
proces s almost palatable
by George Will
Editorial Columnist
WASHINGTON~It was the
President 's finest hour.
In an odd place, at an inauspicious moment, he gave a
watching world the most important moment of presidential
decisiveness since President
Truman picked up Stalin 's
gauntlet and committed the nation
to the policy of containment. And
he gave the nation a clinic in
leadership: With his mind on
future generations , not the next
election , he spurned the shortterm applause that comes
automatically to any President
who signs any arms-control
agreement.
Iceland , where surveys reveal
that $5 percent of the population
believes in elves, was a suitable
place for a summit clamored for
by people who believe in arms
control as the key to taming the
Soviet Union. The Iceland summit ;was the; most successful U.S.
summit. Although the air is thick
with lamentations from armscontrol enthusiasts, the president
may almost have made the armscontrol "process" palatable to
people who are skeptical about its
utility and even its safety .
He did this by demonstrating
something that there were abundant reasons for doubting : He
demonstrated that a President can
go to a summit and dare to return
without an agreement.
Summitry is a part of the armscontrol "process." Summits have
Columnist labels bidding article 'ill-conceived'
by Tom Miller
Editorial Columnist
The latest bit of "investigative
reporting " by the one-man
Woodward and Bernstein at The
Voice, reports on the awarding of
a contract for lighting equipment
in Mitrani Hall.
The problems with this article
beg in with the by-line and are
compounded throug hout the
story . The writer , who obviously has not the slightest notion of
the mechanics of competitive
contract bidding, begins by making a ludicrous statement that
competitive bidding has been
"eliminated" and proceeds then
to make the case for the other
side.
The fact is , as the reporter admits , that invitations for bids
were sent to five firms.
Moreover , the names of the firms
were supplied not by the supposedly biased consultant who
helped to prepare the specifications but by Don McCullough ,
director of Physical Plant and
Energy Management.
The author of this ill-conceived
article claims the ' 'writing of the
specif; cations... resulted in the
elimination of all but one
manufacturer." In fact this often
happens.
When the U.S. Navy wants a
nuclear aircraft carrier , there is
but one shipyard in the world
which can fill the contract. The
people in charge of the theater
department wanted a particular
kind of lighting equipment. A
single theater student apparently
disagreed with their choice and
therein I humbly suggest, lies the
origin of this tale.
' 'Student at Large1 ' reported he
interviewed spokesmen from
several firms invited to bid . They
cite various reasons for declining
the invitation but their remarks
are most noteworthy in that at no
time do they mention that their
decision not to bid had anything
to do with specifications.
Why, if it thinks it really had
something here , did The Voice

come to be regarded as events
where arms-control are consummated . A dangerous asymmetry
in this process is that Western
public opinion is the only public
opinion that matters in this process , and Western publics have
never met an arms-control agreement they did not like . (Never
mind that they have never met an
arms-control agreement that
seriously controlled arms.)
It may be the case that , by venturing to Iceland for that fast-food
summit, the President strode into what the Soviet side fancied
was a clever trap~a heads-wewin , tails-you-lose situtation.
They would either kill the
Strategic Defense Initiative of
vilify it as the only impediment
to arms reductions so comprehensive as to constitute the termination of the Cold War.
However , it is almost certainly wrong to think, as many even
in the administration may think ,
that important agreements really
were within reach regarding
intermediate-range and strategic
missiles. It is probable that the
Soviet offers and expressions of
interest were designed in large
measure to contribute to the orchestrated euphoria , the collapse
of which was counted on to
deepen resentment of SDI. And
if the President had , to the
Soviet 's surprise , killed SDI to
get Soviet agreement to cuts, it is
probable that many of the cuts
would have been vitiated in years
of negotiations about details , in
cheating, and in deployments of
new weapons not covered by any
Iceland agreements .
One reason for believing that
the Iceland outcome was the one
the Soviet side aimed for is that
their crucial demand was an act
of brazen overreaching. They
sought a revision of the ABM
treaty—a "strengthening" of the
treaty that would have suffocated
SDI by confining research to the
laboratory. The Soviets could not
seriously have expected the President to eviscerate his presidency
by suddenly scrapping a program
that he has advocated with the
most intense moral and prudential arguments.
But , then, brazenness is not in
To the Editor
short supply in the Soviet regime
that speaks of "strengthening " an
ABM treaty it is flagrantly
violating, a reg ime that
stigmatizes SDI as highly imprudent and immoral , yet has spent
far more on defensive systems
than has the United States.
Certainly the Iceland outcome
will enable Gorbachev to fan the
flames of anti-Americanism
among the European left. But it
is equally certain that no President can make policy hostage to
the hopeless and squalid project
of trying to dampen Europe's appeasement reflex.
In the network 's rush to judgment on Iceland , the editorializing was as clear as it was unconscious. The outcome was called a "collapse" of the summit,
a collapse that dashed hopes of
"progress " and knocked U.S.Soviet relations "off the rails. "
The word "collapse" implies
calamity; the word "progress" is
defined exculsively in terms of
the; achievement ,of agreements .
And 'what is one to "make of the
rails metaphor? What rails
were the relationship on before
Iceland?
"Collapse " implies disorder .
The Iceland outcome was an
orderly result of an orderl y
assessment. That is progress of
the highest sort-progress toward
realism.
Perhaps the Iceland outcome
will confer the ancillary blessing
of putting an end to the nonsense
about the President and the First
Lady being mesmerized by armscontrol agreements as guarantors
of his "place in history. " Both
he and she know that every President since the onset of the U.S.Soviet arms-control process 17
years ago has achieved an armscontrol agreement (counting , as
one should , the Ford-Brezhnev
agreement at Vladivostok) . Mr.
and Mrs . Reagan know that it is
nonsense on stilts to say that
arms-control agreements sealed
for Nixon , Ford and Carter enviable "places in history."
The arms-control "process "
has indeed now given this President the high place in history that
was waiting for the first President
who would show that it is possible to "just say no. "
Honest living requires
expression of feelings
Dear Editor,
After reading an article in the
last issue of The Voice, "Toleration plays key role... ", I have
come to realize, upon reflection,
how much I agree with the importance of freedom of expression.
Freedom of expression is not only
a constitutional right, but a
necessity for an honest human
experience.
I'm sure all of us have experienced the many oppressing ,
expression-squashing double
binds found too abundantly in our
society. ''You will eat your peas
and like them. " "You have to
love me. I'm your whoever. "
What if you find yourself in
these situations? What are your
alternatives? Can you make
yourself eat your peas? Can you
make yourself love someone? Or
can you just stand your ground
and shout "I don't like my peas,
I hate my peas, and I never loved Uncle Fred!"
This second alternative would
most assuredly hurt someone 's
feelings , especially Uncle Fred.
But what would be the good in
pretending? You'd probably .end
up loving your peas or you Uncle Fred less.
Instead of keeping all these1 incongruities pent up inside us, let
the other guy know. At least this
way, we'll all understand each
other. So we get into good,
wholesome fights every now and
then. It 's the price that must be
paid for living an honest life.

Harry Haigler, a former student
of Cohen's and now an assistant
professor at the University of
California , Irvine Medical
Center.
Levi-Montalcini , who is
popularly known in Italy as
"signora of the cells," holds both
Italian and American citizenship.
She returned to Italy after retiring from the university in 1977 .
She is the fourth woman to win
the Nobel Prize in medicine,
since it was first awarded in
1901. She never married and
lives with her sister, and artist.
"She is a very tough lady , all
steel from one end to the other ,''
said Ralph A. Bradshaw, chairman of the department of
biological chemistry at the
University of California , Irvine
Medical Center, who is a friend
and colleague of both LeviMontalcini and Cohen. "She did
a lot of this research at a time
when women had a hard time
succeding in science. "
Cohen, described by colleagues
as a modest, soft-spoken man
who smokes a corncob pipe and
paces for hours while trying to
solve research problems , is married and has three children.
' 'Stanley does science the way
you are taught to do it in the textbooks," Bradshaw said . "Most
of his seminal observations would
have been missed by somebody
else who wasn't as careful. "

An American biochemist and
an
Italian-American
neurobiologist were named cowinners of the 1986 Nobel Prize
in medicine for discovering proteins, known as "growth factors, " that play a key role in
regulating cell and organ
development in animals and
humans .
In naming Stanley Cohen, 63,
of Vanderbilt University Medical
Center , and Dr. Rita LeviMontalcini, 77, of the Institute of
Cell Biology in Rome, the Nobel
Assembl y of Stockholm 's
Karolinska Institute said their
research "may increase our
understanding of many disease
states," such as Alzheimer's
disease and cancer.
The study of such growth factors has increased understanding
of one of the enduring mysteries
of life: how individual cells
develop into complex organ
systems.
The two, who last month also
won Lasker basic medical
research awards , will share a
record prize of 2 million Swedish
kroner , or about $290,000. The
awards are all the more poignant
because of the personal obstacles
each researcher has had to
overcome.
Levi-Montalcini, a Jew, carried out experiments in her
bedroom while hiding from the
Nazis during World War II, after
being forced to quit her university post in Turin , where she
grew up.
Erling Norrby , professor at
Sweden's Karolinska Institute,
which awards the medicine prize,
said that she "made a laboratory
out of her bedroom, sharpened
the knives herself and once in a
while the eggs she used became
scrambled eggs after the experiment."
The results of her clandestine
research in developmental
biology were published in Swiss
medical journals and came to the
attention of Viktor Hamburger of
the Washington University in St.
Louis. Hamburger , who studied
the nervous system of chick embryos, invited her to join his
laboratory in 1947.
Cohen suffered from polio as
a child and continues to walk with
a limp.
"It feels good to get world
recognition for something you 've
been working on for 30 years,"
Cohen said in a telephone interview from Nashville, Tenn.
"When we started, we were
following a little trail of interesting observations. We had no
expectation it would open up a
whole field of research ."
It was at Washington University that Levi-Montalcini met
Cohen, and the two worked
together for seven years in the
1950s. Levi-Montalcini had been
trying to isolate a nerve growth
factor , or NGF, which she had
found in mouse tumor cells, and
she asked Cohen to help.
The two researchers subsequently isolated and purified
more potent nerve growth factors
from snake venom and the
salivary gland of mice. That lent
credence to their belief that such
factors play a crucial role in the
maturation of nerve cells.
In 1962, while studying nerve
growth factor from mice, Cohen
accidently detected another
growth factor that stimulates cells
to divide .
He found that extracts of the
gland , when injected into
newborn mice, caused their
eyelids to open sooner than usual.
Subsequently, he purified mouse
"epidermal growth factor " and ,
in 1975, isolated its human
counterpart.
Initially, such research received skeptical reviews, and some
even suggested that growth factors did not exist or were of trivial
importance.
But in the last decade, the role
of the growth factors has become
increasingly accepted. Scientists
have studied those growth factors, and more than a dozen
others, to learn how cells communicate with each other. Such
research has led to better
understanding of the molecular
basis for cancer and degenerative
diseases of the brain.
It has also been found that
growth factors are structurally
related to other important hormones, like insulin.
In the early 1980s, British
scientists, studying animal tumor
viruses, discovered a structural
relationship between another
growth factor and proteins involved in the development of
some cancers, a finding that has
stimulated additional interest in
the field .
Growth factors have now been
found in a variety of human
tumor cells as well, according to

Children's theater for adults too
Too many channels
my makeshift corner , I was half
buried under paper when a nearby boy and girl tagteam decided
to play a scene from some poap,
combining elements of Miumi
Vice and The Waltons.
I felt the sudden need for a
General Hospital , but there was
no one around save a couple AH
Star Wrestlers grappling with
some blonde.
Lacking any patience, I gave
up trying to play Father Knows
Best and shifted gear into The
Equalizer.
But it was too late . The ATeam, 'A' having nothing to do
with academics, suddenly attacked from the right , pretending to
be pledges from some fraternity.
I, now in the middle of what
appeared to be a Family Feud
from the Twilight Zone, clicked
my heals three times and landed
in May berry . Gomer Pyle , who
sat across the table from me, was
more than I could stand.- So I
pretended to be invisible and ended up on Soap, let alone drugs.
Completely burned out and
running out of places to hide, I
left the library once more in
search of strength, but neither she
nor Leonard Nemoy were
anywhere to be found.
Back in my apartment, I kicked the television , turned on my
stereo and sat for a short rest
before attempting to study.
The next thing I knew it was
the following day and Good Morning America was standing in my
doorway, asking if I had any idea
what time it was.
I said something about Howdy
Doodv and went back to bed.
Don Chomiak
Burned out! One Caucasian
male brain. Lately it seems as I
finish one project , another even
bigger plants its ugly self on my
doorstep.
What I would give for the opportunity to go, to a single party
and enjoy standing in a sardine
can , fighting for a beer and taking that spectacular brewery bath.
The chance seems to always
escape me. Fortunately, this
situation also leaves me with no
time to endure television.
In my constant search for
knowled ge, truth , and a free
meal, there is no time to waste.
Having to navigate the incredible undertow of bodies and withstand the constant static of voices
buzzing around me, I fight my
way through the library, searching for that treasure known as
a quiet corner.
Finall y, sitting in the closest
thing to a corner I could find,
which happened to be in the
center of the room , I unpacked
my heavyweight bag.
I then began to dig into the
clay 's worth of work I had accumulated , having told myself I'd
do it in the morning and having
slept 'till the afternoon.

Program Board gives
experience to students
Over 200 events were brought
to Bloomsburg University last
year courtesy of the Kehr Union
Program Board , an organization
designed to provide BU with
entertainment and student
activities.
The group is an organization
that allows students to have a say
in what entertainment and programs are brought to campus. It
is open to all students who are
interested.
Not only does Program Board
provide opportunity to choose the
programs , but it also provides a
learning experience that one can 't
get in the classroom. Students can
learn how to deal with all types
of people: other students , faculty, and even professionals; how
to organize ideas , and how to
develop responsibility and leadership skills.
Program Board consists of an
advisor , four officers , and ten
committees. Each committee is
headed by a chairperson who
keeps the committee organized .
Each member of the committee is
responsible for carry ing out the
ideas produced. The ten commit-
tees that make up Program Board
are : Bingo, Dance/Mini Concert ,
Film/Widescreen , Hospitality ,
Minority Affairs , Public Relations , Publicity , Recreation ,
Soundstage, and Special Events .
Program Board consists of
"students programming for
students ", says Jimmy Gilliland ,
Program^ Board' s Advisor. He
says "You learn a lot about
yourself as well as the people you
work with ," and one can even
have fun doing it. It can also provide students with "concrete
evidence that you have a
background in a particular field"
says Stephanie Simmons ,
chairperson of Public Relations
committee.
Program Board provides you
with practice in working in a
business oriented atmosphere.
Mike Harvey, chairperson of
Minority Affairs , says it enables
students to "strengthen your
decision-making skills arid learn
how to budget your time. It provides you with a challenge and
new insights about the work
scene. "

about the effects of alcohol ,
responsible decisions one should
make for himself , and the legal
aspects of drinking. More than

"Good theater always has to
entertain. Always! That's the bottom line. But I have a real committment to doing plays that have
a theme, or that have some kind

Here is the chance to test yourself on your awareness of the facts
concerning AIDS. The best way to prevent yourself from getting
AIDS is to arm yourself with all the facts regarding the syndrome.
Ignorance of the facts can cause unnecessary fear. At the same time,
using your knowledge, and applying it in social situations is the best
protection you can provide for yourself.
Circle (T) if the statement is true and (F) if it false. There are ten
statements, therefore if you score 90-100 your knowledge of AIDS
is excellent, 80 good , 70-79 fair , but below 70, you had better brush
up on your AIDS education. Pamphlets and educational materials
on AIDS can be found at the University Health Center.
1. T F AIDS is short for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome.
2. T F There have been no proven cases in which AIDS has spread
by casual contact.
3. T F There is a cure for AIDS.
4. T F You could get AIDS if you give blood for the Red Cross.
5. T F Heterosexuals can 't get AIDS, only homosexuals.
6. T F There is a fool proof blood test for AIDS.
7. T F AIDS is not an easy disease to get. The virus is a frag ile virus.
8. T F AIDS is transmitted by intimate sexual contact and exposure
to contaminated blood.
9. T F Condoms have been shown to block passage of the AIDS virus.
10. T F Many of the early symptoms of AIDS are similiar to those
of common illnesses such as the "flu. "

Just because the Theater for
Young Audiences is theatre for
kids, doesn't mean that the performances don't have to be as
good. Marci Woodruff , director
of the child drama program on
campus, says, "I think children
are a much more honest and intelligent audience than adults .
There 's no waiting for the
reviews to come out . I mean, you
know on the spot . If you bore 800
children , you may as well face the
wrath of God!" says Woodruff.
Children 's Theater , or Theater
for Young Audiences is not
children performing theater for
children , it is adults performing
theater for children. "This is a
distinction a lot of people aren 't
aware of ," says Woodruff.
Relatively new to Bloomsburg,
the child drama program was
started by Woodruff three years
ago and has proven to be a real
success!
"Every fall we do a big
mainstage production either in
Haas (Auditorium) or Carver
(Hall) that we run a series of
of the college population chooses
to drink .
The founder of Alcohol
Awareness Week at BU is Shell
Lundahl, a counselor from the
BU Counseling Center. She plans
all of the activities for the week,
however Lundahl pointed out that
since six years ago when she
started the activities, residence
life and the health center have
been planning numerous programs to compliment those offered by the Center.
One of Lundahl's major concerns is that college students are
not as knowledgeable about
alcohol as they sometimes claim
to be. Tonight 's program deals
with dispelling some of the myths
that are attached to drinking. For
example, is it true that people tell
the absolute truth while under the
influence. Listen to Neil Murphy,
the Executive Director of White
Deer Treatment Center, for the
answer to this and many other
questions.
Tomorrow mght, the subject of
drinking and driving wil be
discussed by Bob Thomas, a
Drug and Alcohol specialist.
For more details and a complete listing of events and programs to take place throughout
Alcohol Awareness Week , see
the boxed schedule on the top of
page 3.
This year's Alcohol Awareness
Week is being co-sponsored by
BACCHUS (Boost Alcohol Conscieousness Concerning the
Health of University Students), a
student organization which promotes responsible drinking an
decision making.
BACCHUS will have an
Alcohol Awareness booth in the
Union starting today until Tuesday from 11 a.m.-l p.m.

Program Board gives
experience to students
From page 6.
Program Board gives students
the opportunityto work with professionals. Kerry Desmond ,
president of Program Board says,
"It provides you with experience
in the real business world, but in
a more relaxed atmosphere. "
In a sense students are running
their own business. They are in
a partnership with the other
members on the committee and
have a limited budget to work
with. They are responsible for
providing the student body with
entertainment. Each must follow
all the steps involved in producinp a .product and getting it out to
the public.
Sometimes students also learn
how to deal with the disappointments that occur.
Program Board is a voluntary
organization that enables handson experience. It "helps you to
grow and learn the things you
have to do in the real world,"says
Robert Francis, chairperson of
Recreation. "You students get
out of it what you put in it. "
Francis adds that by getting involved in Program Board ,
students learn alot about
themselves and the world around
them
International artist Will Barnet
will arrive on campus October 22
to visit the Haas Gallery where
his exhibit will be on display .
Barnet is a painter and printmaker
from New York City. His collections can be found on display in
the Metropolitan Museum of Art:
Whitney Museum of American
Art. The collection he will show
at BU will be choice selections of
over 50 works produced in a
period of time from the early
1930's to the present .
John Cook, assistant professor
of art, says that Barnet is/thought
to be one of the major graphic artists of his time. In his work
Barnet attempts to create and capture life as he would like it to be
using a style distinctly his own.
He is also well known for his
series named "Women by the
Sea" which was inspired by his
wife.„
While Barnet is on campus, he
will present a slide show, talk of
his work and meet with any interested students.

Answers to AIDS Knowledge Test
1. TRUE AIDS is short for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome .
2. TRUE You cannot get AIDS from someone you go to class with ,
from a toilet seat, or someone you work with.
3. FALSE There is no cure for AIDS. The new medication for AIDS
that has been publicized , has been able to prolong the lives of some
patients , and is now being used on people with pneumonia , that is
often part of the syndrome.
4. FALSE You cannot get AIDS from donating blood. Blood banks
and other blood collection centers use sterile equipment and disposable
needles. The need for blood is acute, so if you are not in the high
risk group for AIDS, continue to give blood .
5. FALSE It is possible to get AIDS if you have heterosexual contact with a bisexual man, with more than one sex partner , an IV drug
user or an IV blood recipient, who has AIDS. You should know your
sex partner well before engaging in sexual activity. Involvement in
caring relationships creates an environment for comfortable discussions of safety and health.
6. FALSE There is a blood test for the antibody to HTLV III virus.
It is not a test for AIDS. There are many limitations to the test, which
can give false positive and false negative results .
7. TRUE AIDSVirus is easily transferrred from one person to another
in sexual activities that involve the exchange of body fluids.
8. TRUE Again , there has been no proven case in which AIDS has
been transmitted by casual contact of any kind. Objects touched or
handled by people with AIDS are not contaminated , with the exceptions of objects contaminated with blood , such as tooth brushes ,
tweezers , or razors.
9. TRUE Condoms have been shown to block passage of the AIDS
virus. To be effective, condoms should be applied before foreplay .
Condoms also effectively prevent the passage of other sexually
transmitted diseases , and unwanted pregnancies as well.
10. TRUE This again , true. Many symptoms would be similiar to
those of the flu. However, the symptoms of AIDS are more severe
and last longer. Some of these are: recurring fever; night sweats ;
a persistent cough; persistent enlarged lymph nodes in the neck , armpits , and groin; bruising easily; and persistent diarrhea.

Huskies trample Mansf ield f orf if t hvictory
BU cruises to 51-26 Homecoming victory
by Mike Mullen
Staff Writer
The Bloomsburg University
Huskies used a strong passing attack coupled with a standout effort on the ground by runningback Tom Martin to demolish
the Mansfield Mounties 51-26
Saturday in front of 6300 alumni , students and parents gathered
for Homecoming weekend at BU.
The Huskies piled up 441 yards
of total offense , including 305 in
the air and 136 on the ground. Jay
DeDea passed for 280 yards and
two touchdowns, while scoring
himself on runs of one and seven
yards.
Martin helped out by picking
up 116 yards on 19 carries for a
6.1
average
and
three
touchdowns on runs of one, five
and 11 yards.
Although Mansfield won the
toss, they deferred to the second
half and the Huskies started out
at their own 33 yard line after the
kickoff.
A 50-yard pass from DeDea to
Jeff Sparks on BU' s first play
fro m scrimmage, which took a
diving tackle to prevent a
touchdown , set up the first score.
Following two penalties and a
ten-yard run by Martin , DeDea
ran the option in for the score
with 13:18 remaining . From
there , Bloomsburg never looked
back.
After a seven minute drive that
resulted in a blocked field goal ,
Tom Martin dives for one of his three touchdowns of the day. Voice photo by Alex Schlllemans.
Mansfield gave the ball back to
BU at the Mounties' 20 yard line.
On second and two after an
eight yard gain by Martin, DeDea
hit Jeff Bowles on a crossing pattern , and with a spectacular run ,
Bowles turned it into another
Husky touchdown with 5:29 remaining in the first quarter. The
kick was good and BU led 13-0.
On the ensuing kickoff ,
Mingrone lofted an onside kick
and Mansfield was caught napping. Schutton recovered for BU ,
but the Huskies were unable to
score and Tim Chamberlain
punted.
The Huskies then foiled a
Mansfield fake punt attempt and
took over on the Mounties ' 35.
Six plays later , DeDea hit Ken
Liebel with a 19-yard touchdown
pass but the kick failed and BU' s
lead was 19-0.
The Huskies defense again shut
down the Mansfield offense as
Wes Cook had a sack and a partially blocked punt.
The Huskies took over in good
field position , and runs of seven
and 14 yards by Martin got the
Huskies close. A DeDea keeper
resulted in yet another Husky
score and the score was 26-0 after
Mingrone 's kick.
On Mansfield's next possession , an Al Royster sack resulted
in a fumble and Jim Tyson
recovered to give BU the ball
deep in Mansfield territory .
DeDea and Martin responded
with a perfectly executed option

istence of the USFL in the
business of professional football.
One plan calls for the NFL to
split the NFC and AFC into
separate economic competitors .
This plan would limit each division to one network for five
years.
It would require the television
rights to the Super Bowl to be
sold through competitive bidding .
Currently , CBS, NBC and ABC
broadcast the game on a rotation
basis.
The plan also calls for the
establishment of three separate
drafts-the NFC, the AFC and the
USFL. A second plan would limit
the NFL to two networks for five
years and would preclude the
NFL from telecasting in more
than one Sunday afternoon time
slot.
The third plan calls for a courtordered expansion of the NFL to
the USFL.
Joe Browne, NFL director of
communications said , "Based on
trial testimony, their third listed
option—forced expansion-is really their first option . The jury ruled down the line on our behalf
regarding the television isue. Certainly based on this jury 's findings there is no reason to seek
a restructuring of our league. "
USFL asks court
to break up NFL
L.A. Times-Washington Post News Service
NEW YORK- The United
States Football League, still
fighting for its existence, asked
a federal judge Thursday to break
up the National Football League
or else order the NFL to expand
to 10 USFL cities.
The motion was made to U.S.
District Judge Peter K. Leisure,
who presided at the USFL's recent $1.69 billion dollar antitrust
suit against the NFL. The jury in
the 10-week trial found that the
NFL was a monopoly, but awarded the USFL only $1 in damages,
trebled under antitrust law to $3.

Leisure rejected a motion by
the USFL two weeks ago for a
new trial asking increased
damages, he also turned down an
NFL motion to overturn the
jury 's finding that the NFL was
a monopoly .
The USFL Thursday asked
Leisure to break up the basic
structure of the NFL. USFL attorneys submitted three plans to

NFL off one of the three commercial networks, and all seeking drastic changes in the way the
NFL is set up, to assure the ex-
In addition , BU sophomore
Jeanne Cancelliere finished runnerup at fourth flight singles, losing to top-seeded Lynn Frye of
Clarion , while Husky freshman
Cathy Von Luehrte lost in the
semifinals to the eventual champion at third flight singles.
The Huskies ' first and second
flight singles players , Megan
Clarke and Cortlee Gerhart , after
winning early matches, were
ousted in the quarterfinals by the
eventual winners of their fli ghts.
"Better luck with the draw
might have helped us ," commented Coach Mike Herbert.
"However, we have nothing to
be ashamed of. It was a very good
effort by a fine group of young
women. "

play on the Huskies' next play
and Martin scampered in for the
score . Mingrone added the extra
point to put BU ahead 33-0.
Chris Jobes took over the
quarterbacking for Mansfield and
promptly led his team downfield ,
finally completing an 11-yard
scoring toss to Fred Coleman.
The kick failed and BU led 33-6.
A 37-yard kick return by
Myers gave the Husky offense
good field position and five plays
later Tom Martin scored his second touchdown of the afternoon
on a one-yard dive. Mingrone
missed the kick and Bloomsburg
led 39-6 with 1:43 still remaining in the half.
Jobes again took his team to the
end zone, going the final three
yards by himself on a keeper. The
two-point conversion failed and
Bloomsburg went to the lockerroom with a comfortable 39-12
advantage.
Jobes began the second half for
Mansfield where he left off and
Robert Funderback broke
through for a touchdown on
fourth and one from the two-yard
line. Once again Mansfield was
victimized by a missed extra point
and the Huskies now led 39-18.
However, the next time Jobes got
the ball he made his first mistake
of the game.
BU linebacker Jake Williams
picked off a Jobes pass at
Mansfield' s 18 and returned it
seven yards to the 11.
Martin immediately ran 11
yards for his third touchdown and
BU led 45-18 with 5:50 remaining in the third quarter .
A fumble recovery by
Mansfield set up their next score
as Jobes found Pat Beckwith with
an 18-yard scoring toss. A successful two-point conversion
shaved BU's lead to 45-26.
Bloomsburg completed the
scoring later in the fourth quarter
as back-up quarterback Paul
Venesky threw a 25-yard scoring
pass to Sparks to end the scoring
at Bloomsburg 51 Mansfield 26.
Bloosmburg's defense caused
three Mansfield
fumbles
(recovering one) and one intercepted pass. In addition , they
were credited with a partially
blocked punt and field goal as
well as three sacks for a loss of
28 yards.
Bosox drop Mets 1-0
in Game 1 of Series
by Dave Sauter
Staff Writer
Saturday night marked the first
game of the 1986 World Series
as the Boston Red Sox invaded
Shea Stadium to face the New
York Mets .
Bruce Hurst pitched for the
Bosox while Ron Darling led the
Mets ' attack.
It was a game played to World
Series standards , as both teams
played scoreless ball for the first
six innings.
The 45 degree weather did not
seem to affect either pitcher as
both teams were held to less than
five hits for the first six innings.
Then, with Red Sox runners on
first and second , and one out in
the seventh , Rich Gedman hit a
sure double-play ball to Tim
Tuefel , only to have it roll
through his legs. Jim Rice scored
from second and the Red Sox led
1-0.
The Mets only chance to win
came in the bottom of the ninth
when Darryl Strawberry led-off
with a walk. Howard Johnson attempted to sacrifice him over but
failed , and Johnson stayed on
first. Danny Hee.p,struck out to
end the game.
Bruce Hurst was the winner
with ex-Met Calvin Schiraldi getting the save. Ron Darling absorded the loss for the Mets.
The Mets attempted to rebound
from the loss as Dwight Gooden
faced Roger Clemens in Game 2.
At press time the Mets were trailing the Sox 4-2 after four innings.
Game Notes- This was the first
time the Mets had been shut out
at home since John Tudor and the
Cardinals achieved it in
September of 1985...The Series
switches to Boston for games 3,4
and 5 starting Tuesday...The
Mets are batting .056 in the first
three innings in all seven postseason games.
