Law Enforcement explains ticket policies;
examines changeover in ticket processes
by Tom Sink
lor the Voice

Bloomsburg University 's Law
Enforcement department is currently examining a changeover in
the ticket processing policies of
illegall y parked cars.
Ken Weaver , Chief of Law Enforcement, says his department is
considering procedures by which
delinquent fines will place a hold
on the violator 's records ,
transcri pts , reg istration and
related documents.
Weaver says under the present

system , tickets that are issued by
c o m m i s s i o n e d officers and
security guard s and not paid
within 10 days arc, recorded as
citations within 30 days of the
violation and sent to District
Justice Donna Coombc for
appeal.
Under Rule 55 of the Rules of
C r i m i n a l Procedures , onl y
authorized (commissioned) officers can file a citation. These officers can also file citations based on information received from
security guards.
Tickets issued by Assistant

Vice President of Administration
Paul Conard that are not paid
within 10 days arc held by the
Law Enforcement Office until
paid.
According to Weaver , unpaid
tickets written by Conard have no
effect on the offenders records
and files as of yet. Weaver points
out that this does not mean that
the tickets issued by Conard are
invalid.
Weaver adds that many peop le
do not know the difference between a ticket and a citation.
According to the dockets

avail able to the public in
Coombe 's office , in November of
1 985 Conard issued five citations
for delinquent tickets.
Because Conard was not an officer , Coombe did not recognize
the citations as valid under the
law and Conard withdrew them.
Weaver comments that if the
hold procedures go into effect ,
tickets issued by officers and
security guard s may not be
recorded as citations and also remain on the campus and act as
holds if not paid.
Weaver adds that this move
would cut back on time and
money spent at Coombe 's office
processing citations.

To the Editor

Educate the ignorant and
enlighten the bigoted

Dear Editor ,
He has called Carl Sagan a
"kook" and Samantha Smith "a
cloy ing, nauseating Russian
pawn. " He has contended that the
university paper deals with
parochial issues and has twice used the word "henhouse " to
describe the editorial staff.
He has described AIDS victims
as "hairdressers of the rich and
famous " and Corazon Aquino as
a Phili pp ian Ethel Kennedy. He
has misrepresented , misquoted
and misinterpreted the good intentions of too many for too long.
Is he from our galaxy? We are not
sure . Do some people wish he
would go away ? Yep !
He (aka Tom Miller) has been
chatiscd , not onl y by liberals , but
also by the Conservatives for a
Better World , and by students and
1 acuity .
From the beginning he has
been violentl y opposed because of
the way he addresses many controversial issues. He said the National Organization of Women
opposed a four-month unpaid
leave to new parents because it
would encourage women to stay
home with their children.

Twice he has attacked The
Voice as incompetent Last year
he said the oni y well written part
was the sports section. Coincidentally (or not) the only section edited by a male. He added
that a policy of running articles
about the activities of a student
advocacy organization was propaganda. He further imp lied that
the best way to get a letter to the
editor published was to be a CGA
member patting yourself on the
back.
He attacked Corazon Aquino 's
government , questioning the
legitimacy of her government, the
election and her intentions. All
these uncertainties were answered
when the new Philippian constitution was finished recently.
He has taken an ultraconservative stand on a multitude
of subjects. All this started with
an article on AIDS. The basic
thesis of this editorial was that
AIDS was a solution , not a problem , and that government attention should be redirected. Father
Chet Snyder , Bloomsburg
Catholic Campus Ministry, in his
editorial reply said , "Let those

Student wants to stop
'free-thinker ' bashing

Dear Editor ,
I would like to thank you for
printing Mr. Tom Miller 's article in last Thursday 's Voice. His
openminded anal ysis of our
wonderfu l
Greek
system
enli ghtened me beyond my own
imag ining ! To illustrate my
cognitive awakening, please let
me elaborate on some of his
points.
First , I was in error regarding
the besjtvway to find out i f ' 'Greek
is for me. '' I thought that the best
way was to talk to brothers or
sisters of a Greek organization ,
go to rush meetings , be yourself
and do some informal research on
the organizations and their
structure .
These methods, being fruitless ,
I have tossed out in favor of spending six weeks of my valuable
semester learning everything
about the organization , little
about my classwork , learning
how to put up a front , and pretending I like people whom I'd laugh
at under normal circumstances.
Secondly, I am no longer confused as to how undoubtly fantastic an open Greek party is.
How could I have ever considered having some friends come
to my apartment for some beer
and casual conversation as being
fun? From now on , I' m going to
spend three dollars to stand in a
basement , sweat like a pig, fight
for a drink , have others question
my lineage, have my clothes ruined from spilled beer and listen to
trend y college music for a few
hours before being told to "get
out. " What could be better?
Lastly, I committed a grievous
miscalculation when I thought
that I criticized Greeks on the
basis of their actions. I now
realize that I am jealous , envious
and have "curmudgeonly resentment " at the thought of others
having fun.
I confess that I envy those who
sit on ice blocks with their
trousers down , have animal excretion smeared on them and are

urinated upon by those who call
themselves "brothers ."
I'm very thankful that someone
with a moral fiber as untainted as
Mr. Miller can finally come forward and put a stop to this
hideous practice of Greek
bashing . I'm just wondering who
will stop Mr. Miller 's "freethinker bashing?" Hopefully I
will and I am not afraid to use my
name.
David K. Garton

Student annoyed
at complaints

Dear Editor ,
After having read yet another
article in which Tom Miller complains about the mismanagement
of The Voice , I was very
annoyed.
In the first place, comparing
this semester 's printing of The
Voice to last semester's paper ,
there has been a noticeable improvement in both the format and
the content of the campus
newspaper.
This brings up another point ,
we are to remember that The
Voice is a campus newspaper,
and while it is distributed to some
community members, it is not to
be compared with The New York
Times.
The major purpose of the paper
is to help journalism majors gain
experience and further their
knowledge of how a good paper
(which I believe it is) is
produced.
Lastly, in his most recent article, Mr. Miller complains of the
number of women on the editorial
staff. I feel this is a chauvinistic
remark , or is Mr. Miller jealous
that , yes, women are doing a
good job on the staff?
If Mr. Miller feels so compelled to complain about The Voice,
I suggest he stop reading it and
buy a copy of The New York
Times. But then again, would that
even satisfy him?

Count is off

Dear Editor ,
After reading last Monday 's
piece by Mr. Tom Miller , I was
mad at first and then felt left out.
Maybe Mr. Miller has a problem with reading, there are five
male editors listed in the staff
box. Two of us are photo editors
who have an extensive photo file
and a number of staff members.
I carefull y reviewed Mr.
Miller 's article again and
wondered if he had different
facts. He probably read Don
Chomiak' s article the same
way—halfway .
Well Mr. Miller , I'll help you
count the 13 member staff
members, eight female and five
male. I quess you wouldn 't find
that in a henhouse.
A. Schillemans

Student
clarifies
p oint
Dear Editor ,
Being the "single theater student " mentioned in that Miller
guy 's Monday morning attack on
The Voice, I would like to clarify
a few points.
First of all , the people in
charge of the theater department
did not make the decision as to
the particular type of lighting
equipment that would be installed in Mitrani Hall. In fact , the
other two manufacturers that the
theater department wanted considered were not even invited to
bid . The decision as to the
manufacturer had been made
prior to the meetings that involved the theater department.
Furthermore, being a wellrespected technician on this campus and elsewhere, my disagreement with the use of Electro Controls equipment is based on my
experience with and knowledge
of a great deal of lighting equipment, including Electro Controls.
It is also based on the experience
and knowledge of many other
professionals in the lighting
business.
Miller seems to think he knows
it all. My first recommendation
to him is to learn how to get his
facts straight. Then he might consider making a public apology to
the staff of The Voice for his
narrow-minded and chauvinistic
statement about a ''henhouse atmosphere ." Just who the hell
does he think he is?

Glimpse of the future
proves shocking

by John Garcia
Guest Columnist

We have met the enemy—and
he is us! Slightly different from
the original , isn 't it? Yet one can 't
help but wonder if this quote
doesn 't adorn the dais of the great
administrative forces at Harrisburg . Yes, I have had a glimpse of the futu re , and it is
shocking.
Envision this campus as a barren hill , devoid of people, devoid
of man 's "monumental" creations. Natu ral disaster? Nuclear
holocaust? No , not these! The
cause of this vision is the everhaunting beast whose symbol is
$$$ and whose name shall be
known as "the low bid. "
Overly dramatic? Probably," but
the problem is not as minor as
some would have you believe.
Evidence of the "penny wisepound foolish" nature of this
beast can be evidenced in an
average day 's walk across the
campus.
Our not-so-mythical "low bid
tour " of the campus shall begin
with a careful examination of the
post-and-chain fences that line
most of Bloomsburg University 's
sidewalks.
This examination reveals
rusting chains, rusting links and
rotting wooden posts. "But untreated wood is cheaper " is the
cry that echoes off the walls of
Sutliff Hall , as we espy a post that
has rotted so completely as to
now lie broken on the ground .
Penny wise-pound foolish.
That post must now be replaced so that the decor of the campus is not diminished by a broken
post. Of course, how easily we
forget that eventually all the un*
treated posts , rusted links and
broken chains will have to be
replaced .
This becomes a wonderful
"double-dipped" windfall for the
grounds crew who have already
been paid for initial installtion ,
and now must be paid again for
maintenance that should have
been unnecessary. It 's not their
fault, though, they can only work
with the materials that they are
given.
Our next stop is Haas
Auditorium , where we witness a
dozen (or so) theater students

complaining about their new
li g htin g system. A dozen?!.' I'd
better clean my glasses. Mr.
Miller said there was only one
disgruntled student!
A few brief steps up the hill and
behold—the McCormick Center-the culmination of our tour!
McCormick Center represents the
pinnacle of the low bid beast.
We 'll start out tour on the
ground floor , carefully avoiding
the puddles of water on the floor
from the leaking ceiling, with
Television and Radio Services.
Nice! Very impressive! Let me
open
this
door
for
you...OOPS...the handle came
off in my hand. I guess I won 't
be needing my key anymore (it
never worked in the first place).
Television Service 's lighting
system looks very familiar. (At
this point , members of the tour
are overwhelmed with a sense of
deja-vu, as we witness a dozen or
so disgruntled students...)
We'll be touring the roof next
to look at the satellite installation ,
and to see the 600 watt FM station 's tower ("I thought that the
FM station was supposed to be
1000 watts," said one of our tour
members who lives 30 miles
north of Bloomsburg and can 't
get the station...)
At this point , our group takes
a brief respite to sit down and to
use McCormick's facilities. I
hope no one needs more than one
sheet of bath tissue...(someone
has decreed that the dispensers
shall not allow more than one or
two sheets at a time—Harrisburg
must be saving BIG BUCKS on
paper this year!)
As we reach the roof , a
marvellous view unfolds before
our eyes. The satellite dish is an
impressive looking piece of electronics , to say the least. Lest we
forget , however, that this same
satellite dish came off its anchors
on a windy day and punctures the
roof. An investigation by BU' s
crews showed inadequate
installation.
But that 's not possible! The
work was performed by the company receiving the low bid! At
least, in this rare occasion, the ensuing fiasco didn 't cost BU any
more money . However , it did
cost TV Services over th ree

months of down-time with their
satellite.
Where does all this point , to the
system or to the princi ple of the
low bid? It points accusingly at
the system! In princip le , the low
bid is instituted by the state for
a very good reason—it forces the
universities to be comparison
shoppers . It intends to ensure that
the taxpayers are not spending
$300 for a hammer. But it is in
the purchasing system that the
low bid concept fails so
miserably.
The purchasing system is conducted in an illog ical manner.
The system forces the constant
comparison of "apples and
oranges, " with the final purchasing decision being made by someone in Harrisburg who is not
an expert in the area in which the
purchase is taking place!
The decision on what to purchase often leaves the hands of
the true experts, and is placed into
the hands of a person only concerned with the final cost. The
irony is that in most cases , the
shortsightedness will end up
costing more—thus defeating the
initial purpose of the low bid
system!
However, to abandon the low
bid system would open up the
state for many problems. What is
needed is not the abandonment of
the policy, but a major revision
in the purchasing system.
The policy revision should
place the decision making process
in the hands of the experts—the
people hired by the university for
their knowledge. Mr. Miller, and
the eternal red-tape of Harrisburg , would have you believe
that the system is a flawless piece
of art . Yet our knowled geable
people are often not involved in
the final decision process! Why
not let them emp loy their
knowled ge to make the final purchasing decisions for their own
particular area? Does it make
sense for a biologist to select a
$20,000 satellite dish? Does it
make sense for a sociologist to
select an electron microscope? Of
course not!
Yet that is precisely what happens. Maybe not that exact
scenario , but the analogy holdspenny wise, pound foolish.

Anti-drug campaign similar to Prohibition
Dear Editor ,
The United States government
is presently engaged in one of the
strongest organized movements
to eliminate drug availability to
consumers in U.S. history.
But many of those who are
directly involved in the legislation
and enforcement of anti-drug
laws are saying that the programs
have little chance of providing the
"desired " results.
Any movement which actually affects the product supply to a
noticable degree may be quickly
and strongly opposed by 13-15
million of our nation 's
consumers .
Alcohol , a drug, was officially banned during the Prohibition
Era. "Speak-casita " or illegal
bars, sprang up across our country as a result of Prohibition.

The movement was a failure
and was abandoned after a few
years. The repeat of those laws
show us that people can and will
oppose paternalistic and oppressive laws.
We now look at supporters of
Prohibition and view them, quite
correctly , as self-righteous and
foolish in their attempts to force
others to adopt their lifestyles.
Today 's anti-drug movement
closely parallels the series of
events which led up to
Prohibition .
In 1972, then-Representative
Ed Koch (D-NY) and Senator
Jacob Javits (R-NY) introduced
a - marijuana decriminalization
proposal . In 1977, following the
passage of a mariju; ,ia reform
Dill , New York Governor Hugh
Carev said that decriminalization

of marijuana would free law enforcement and court resources to
"put the real criminals behind
bars. "
With the passage of that bill ,
New York became the ninth state
to officially stop the arrests of
marijuana consumers .
Marijuana is not a hallucinogen
or mind-bending drug, as many
others are. Its effect is similar to
that of alcohol.
I submit that rather than spend
valuable time and our hardearned tax money on a futile program , our government should
legalize marijuana rather than act
as political witch-hunters caught
up in the hypocrisy of legal
alcohol and illegal marijuana.

GM , which has operated in

was now negotiating with a newly

The anthropology faculty will

Change and Culture Contact, during the 1987 Spring semester.
This course , to be taught by
Dr. Dave Minderhout , will focus
on the impacts of colonialism and
modernization on third and fourth
fourth world populations. Herman Merivale wrote in 1861 that
"the history of the European settlements in America , Africa and
Australia presents everywhere the
same generative races by the uncontrolled violence of individuals , if not of colonial
authorities , followed by tardy attemots on the part of governments
to repair the acknowled ged
crime. "
The class will examine the
nature of contact between European native peoples , the changes
required on both sides , and particularl y the self-determination
response of many third world
populations.

A variety of classical pieces
will be presented , among them
the Bach Chromatic Fantasy and

Couch is currently on sabbatical leave , finishing his doctorate at the Catholic University

The recital , which is part of
Couch' s doctoral requirement ,
will also be performed in

Student at
Large

Meteorology takes to sky
by Deb Goodhart
Staff Writer

Don Chomiak
Occasionall y, a change is required to keep us all on our toes ,
and in my case, literall y.
For this reason, among others ,
this is not a traditional Student at
Large.
When covering the events that
make up the news, a reporter
looks from the outside at
whatever is happening and tries
to interpret it and determine what
is most important.
In order to get a much clearer
look at a certain aspect of BU , I
decided to do it from the inside.
In the second week of the
semester . I went to Coach Adrian
of the football team with an idea.
The idea was to do a story on
the football team by putting on the
pads and getting on the practice
field for a few days to a couple
of weeks. At the coach' s suggestion, I simp ly went out for the
team.

On Monday , of the last week
of September , I started the routine
- practice , wei ghts , and other required reg iments.
Still going to practice and
dressing for the J.V. games, I am
now in my fourt h week of
football.
There is a very real difference
between what is believed to be the
routine of this squad and what the
players actuall y go throug h. I
myself held the view that the only things required were going to
practice and suiting up on
Saturdays.
Outside of getting used to the
physical punishment involved in
the game , one ot the most difficult adjustments for me was the
requirement of reporting to the
Commons between 7:30 and 8:30
every morning at breakfast. I
could not see the need to get up
that early for anything, including
a class.
The alternative , if breakfast is
missed , however , is much worse
than eating earl y. A 6:30 a.m.
run awaits anyone who misses
breakfast repeatedl y.
Another requirement is regular
sessions of wei ght lifting. There
is a bi-weekly requirement for
players , including the receiving
corps , the standpoint from which
I decided to take a look at the
team.
There is a strong unity that
binds this group together. It stems
from the constant commitment ,
the routine , the sore muscles and
sweat, but most of all , from the
push for one thing, to be the best.
The practices , thoug h not
brutal , do require a great deal of
hustle and concentration. The
emphasis on giving your all is
constantl y reinforced during the
course of a workout.
There is an animal in practice
called the "scout team. " This
beast is made up of the unsung
heroes who , during the course of
a week , pretend to be the offense
and defense of the upcoming
Saturday 's opponent. This team
regularl y scrimmages against the
starting and second string offenses and defenses in practice.
The scout team is made up of
most of the younger players who
are not quite ready or who have
yet to make the varsity squad . I
have been an addition to the offensive scout team since my "arrival" a few weeks ago .
The majority of the players on
the scout team are called 'pups '
by the coaches , in contrast to
'dogs , ' which refers to the
veteran players on the squad .
To say the least , it has been
interesting.
Note- though this project is
technicall y finished , I am enjoying football and will probably
continue to play for the remainder
of the season. I would like to
publicl y thank Coach Adrian and
his staff , Art Hopkins, the athletictrainer , and a special thanks to
Ron Morgan , the equipment man
who provided the tools to protec *
me from destruction.

Members of the Second City Touring Company get set to bring their unique brand of comedy to BU.

SCTV brings satire to BU

The Second City Touring
Company, as noted by Time
magazine is a "temp le of satire . "
They are an energetic comic
group that can positively tickle
your funny bone . The Second city
is the finest stage entertainment
you will ever see. It gives a new
meaning to the word comedy. As
Bernard Sahlins , a co-producer ,
remarks , "we took comedy away
from joke telling to the political
and inte rpersonal. "
The Kehr Union Program
Board is sponsoring a ni ght with
Second City. They will appear in
Haas Center at Bloomsburg
University on Monday , October
27 , at 8:00 p.m. Admission is $3
for the general public , and free
for B.U. students with I.D.
Reserved seats are available.
The Second City Touring
Company is a traveling comedy
group who performs rehearsed
sketches and some improvisational material. As one actor
commented , "naturall y , improvisation is sometimes like
swimming without your limbsyou just sink. But when it works ,
you fl y, and w i t h o u t instruments. " Their humor is
familiar , they mock our political ,
social and cultural lives. With
few props and costumes they
create a 'slice of life .'
Second City has been referred
to as a "home for some of the
greatest comic geniuses. " Some
of the graduates of Second City
are : Dan Aykroyd , Ed Asner ,
John Belushi , John Cand y.
Valerie Harper , Linda Lavin ,
Shelly Long, Bill Murray, Gilda
Radner , Joan Rivers , and Betty
Thomas.
Their stage performances
reflect those of "Saturday Ni ght
Live. " Many members of Second
City got their bi g break by appearing on "Saturday Ni ght
Live. " Second City has hurled
more than 200 performers into
show business. On the average ,
more than one member a year
achieves stardom.
After each main stage performance , the actors ask the audience to throw out ideas for skits
that they can work on for their
next performance. The ideas

g iven by the audience are worked on and become part of their
repertoire for t h e i r f u t u r e
performances.
In 1951. at the University of
Chicago . Paul Sills , artistic director , and David Shepherd , writerdirector, turned a former chopsuey shop into what would be the
start of The Second City , called
the Playwri ght ' s Theatre Club.
After the Playwri ght 's Theatre
Club began to pick up, Bernard
Sahlins joined the company as coproducer. In 1955 , Shepherd and
Sills organized an improvisational
group. Compass Players , to perform in ni ght clubs. While this
group was being put together ,
Sahlins formed the Studebaker
Theatre Company in downtown
Chicago as a showcase for the
Compass Players and members of
Playwri ght ' s Theatre Club.
The Studebaker Theatre closed after one year , closely followed by the break-up of the Compass Players . The entire company
then went their own seperate
ways , but hoped that they-,w ould
reunite one day .
In 1959. Sahlins and Sills were
reunited along with some of the
other members of the company ,
and formed The Second City in
Old Town , Illinois. The Second
City got its name from a New
Yorker , A.J. Liebling, who
wrote some put downs about
Chicago.
The Second City was such a
success in Chicago , they opened
a company at the Royale Theatre
in New York in 1961. They went
to London for three performances
and received i n t e r n a t i o n a l
recognition.
Second City had its first television broadcast in 1963, doing a
series of specials. They were
hour and half hour shows produced in London.
Because Second City was in
great demand , they opened a
company in Toronto in 1973. It
was directed by Sahlins , and the
cast was made up of: Dan
Ay kroyd , Valeri Bromfield ,
Brian D o y l e - M u r r a y , Jane
Eastwood , Joe Flaherty , Gilda
Radner , and Fred Skaz.
The television series and

broadcasts were so successful that
Sahlins decided to produce The
Second City 's own series , SCTV .
It was p icked up by 55 U.S.
Cities and in part s of Canada.
The series poked fun at the life
of a 'typical' television station. In
1981 , NBC began airing SCTV
on Friday ni ghts. This increased
Second City 's recognition.
The Second City was also making specials for Home Box Office , and in 1980, began working
with films. Paramount Pictu res
boug ht their adaptation of David
Mamefs "Sexual Perversity in
Chicago. " Other projects that Second city produced were "The
Pin kerton Lady, " "Weekend
Warriors , " and "Intimate Sex
Lives. "
As a member of The Second
City, comedians learn to think on
their feet. When a joke doesn 't go
over , they have a quick wit to
recover. As 77ie New York Times
commented , "the entire recent
tradition of American theatrical
satire can be summed up in three
words: 'The Second City '."
Everyone is welcome to join
this evening of comedy coming
from the Windy City . Tickets can
be purchased at Record &
Jeanswear or Pro Audio in
downtown Bloomsburg and at the
Information Desk in the Kehr
U n i o n on the Bloomsburg
University campus. For more information , contact J i m m y
Gilliland at 389-4344 .

"It was a different and interesting experience, but it was
fun too. "

a
Simeone ,
sophomore accounting major ,
made this comment about a field
tri p for hei meteorology class
taught by Joseph Pifer. The field
trip consisted of a 45-50 minute
airp lane ride over Bloomsburg.
Temperature and pressure both
decrease with
increasing
altitudes. To see this for
themselves , the meteorology
students took temperature and
pressure readings as the plane
ascended. After the fli ght , the
students graphed the readings.
Pifer has been conducting this
field trip for ten years . He
charters planes from the Lycoming Air Service in Williamsport ,
which is owned by Jim Taylor.
"We enjoy fly ing the students ,"
Tay lor commented. "It 's a very

beneficial program. "
Tay lor 's pilots fly a hig h winged Cessna 172 p lane to the
Bloomsburg Municipal Airport.
Students board there in groups of
three. The trip can take place only
on a clear , calm day to comply
widi air flying restrictions of
Bloomsburg.
After the p lane levels off at
about 7000 feet , and the students
have completed taking readings ,
they are .free to enjoy the ride.
Some students take cameras with
them. The p ilot will fly anywhere
within a 60 mile range. "After
ten years , we 've never had any
problems with sickness or rough
flights ,"Pifer said.
For junio r accounting major
Tom Keys, the flight was his first
one. "I was anxious as we approached the runway, but surprising ly it was a smooth flight , even
the landing. "He says, "It was an
experience I'll remember for a
long time. "

THE FAR SIDE

'
By GARY LARSON

from page 4
stumble and sway as you walk ,
and you have seen the bathroom
quite frequentl y for the last hour.
You're having a good time,
though , so you toast to your life
and the fun you are having with
the people nearest you. The more
you drink , the more confident
you feel in yourself , so you drink
another beer and decide to go and
talk to those people you 'd like to
get to know.
Everything is going great . You
are having the time of your life
so you drink two more beers .
"This was a mistake " is what
your head and stomach keep telling you after the last couple
drinks finally hit you . The party, people , and music don 't all
seem so rosy anymore and the only thing that would satisfy you
would be your bed and two
aspirin.
You somehow make it home,
pass out and sleep until 2:00 the
next day . When you wake up and
try to remember the night past ,
half of the evening was a total
blur and you have no idea how or
who brought you home.
You say to your roommate, "I
am never going to do that again ,
and I' m not going out toni ght. "
Your roommate just looks at you
and realizes he/she has heard that
before , in fact even has said it
himself/herself and knows that
one should never say never.
Did that scene sound familiar

to you? I'm sure many of you can
remember at least one time where
you said , "I'll never... " and you
did anyway .
Don't you wish you could go
out with your friends to a party ,
have a few dri nks, stay happy ,
remember who you talked to, and
be able to wake up feeling fine the
next morning? You can ! It all has
to do with knowing the myths and
truths about alcohol , and knowing how much alcohol you can
handle responsibly.
It is necessary be familiar with
the different stages of intoxication
in order to understand when to
slow down and act responsibly .
The first stage is the happy
stage where you begin to become
talkative , relaxed , sociable , and
your worries seem few. This is
the best stage to be in and only
a couple of drinks , depending on
your size , is all you need to feel
this way .
The second stage is the excited
stage. This is the stage where you
become emotional , your behavior
becomes erratic, your jud gement
and thinking become impaired ,
and there is a loss of control over
your actions. This is when you
become irritated at your friends
or start fights that wouldn 't oroccur
in other
dinaril y
circumstances.
A lot of tears are shed during
this stage too , for there is a
tendency to be very emotional
while drinking.
The confused stage is the third
to occur. This occurs when you
stagger , become disoriented ,
moody , fearful , and angry .
The stupor stage is the fourth
stage . This is when you are
unable to stand or walk. While in
this stupor, it is hard to remain
conscious and vomiting occurs.

stage is comatose. Comatose is
being completely unconscious
with few or no reflexes. This may
result in death from respiratory
paralysis.
The key to drinking responsibly is to stay in the happy stage .
There are many myths to clear up
about alcohol that you may feel
hold true for you while you drink ,
but really they are myths and it 's
time the truth come out once and
for all.
Remember the old saying, "Liquor before beer never fear, beer
before liquor never sicker!"
That 's all it is, an old saying. All
alcohol , 12 oz. beer , VA oz.
distilled spirits , or 5 oz. of wine
all contain the same amount of
pure concentrated alcohol. Many
think that drinking fluids afte r
alcohol or exercising helps reduce
the alcohol concentration level in
the body, but the only things that
reduce the blood-alcohol level are
sleep and time.
If after a night out , you wake
up the next morning with a
hangover , your head pounding,
you have the shakes , you are
dehydrated , and nausea has set in ,
the reason is because you are suffering from withdrawal symptoms due to the huge amounts of
alcohol you consumed the night
before.
It can be fri ghtening because
it 's so easy to overlook alcohol
as a drug when that is just what
it really is. But keep in mind that
the best way to enjoy drinking is
to stay in the happy stage and
have fun!

Chicago

Remember , J promised and I
delivered . The big one. Min nesota over Chicago , and I don t
care if Jim McMahon played or
not , 23-7 is a blowout.
So now things heat up in the
NFC Centra l , and people stop
laughing a little bit at this division. The next four weeks will
make the difference in the race
bewteen the Bears and the
Vikings.
Both teams have easy ones this
week , the Bears playing Detroit ,
and the Vikings getting
Cleveland. But next week the
Bears tangle with the Rams , and
Minnesota gets Washington .
The following week gives both
teams a rest , with Chicago at
Tampa Bay and Minnesota traveling to Detroit. Then , Chicago
travels to Atlanta and Minnesota
hosts the Giants. Look for things
to get wild.
Needless to say, the NFC Central is not the only division getting tough. Every other division
race has the first and second place

to

teams separated by no more tuan
one game. Obviously, a big week
coming up.
Last week's 10-4 record puts
the season tally at 48-22 (.686
percent) . Let 's see if I can sort
something out of this week.
Chicago 34 Detroit 7
I pity the team that has to play
Chicago this week. That happens
to be Detroit and they are going
to pay for Minnesota 's demolition
of the Bears .
Minnesota 28 Cleveland 13
Minnesota simply beat Chicago
on the line of scrimmage. The
Browns will be easy pickins ' .
Atlanta 23 L.A. Rams 21
Atlanta continues on in their
phenomenally tough schedule.
The Falcons will struggle with the
Rams as they look ahead to New
England (away), N.Y. Jets and
Chicago at home and a road tri p
to San Francisco in the following
four weeks.
Dallas 24 St. Louis 10
This could be a potential
smoker, but Dallas will probably

take

come oacK. aiicr a victory against
the Eagles that was handed to
them.
Denver 21 Seattle 20
As is the case so often with the
Broncos , don 't mess with them at
home. They have disposed of the
Raiders, New England and Dallas
already at Mile High Stadium.
Look for Seattle to fall just short.
Miami 34 Indianapolis 17
Miami has to have these
nobodys on their schedule to remind Don Shula of what it 's like
to actually beat somebody .

Lion 's share

sari Francisco 31 Green Bay 14
Green Bay had its first thrill of
the season last week. San Francisco sobers up Packers .
San Diego 35 Philadelphia 20
Not counting their 34 point output against Atlanta , the Eagles
have scored 14, 10, 7, 16, 3 and
4 points in their other six games
this season , respectively. That
kind of offense will never compete with a high-charged team
like the Chargers .
Cincinnati 21 Pittsburgh 3
The Bengals need this'victory
to keep some sembelance of
respect for the AFC Central .
Kansas City 27 Tampa Bay 10
K.C. stays in the thick of the
wild-card hunt.
N.Y. Jets 24 New Orleans 14
The Jets are really putting it all
together. Though New Orleans is
much improved , the Jets will flex
their muscles some more.
L.A. Raiders 31 Houston 20
The Raiders look to be on the
road to recovery , while Houston
falls further out of divisional race.

New England 31 Buff alo 21
The Pats hel p Buffalo retain
reputation as the unofficial Hard
Luck team of the NFL.
N.Y. Giants 23 Washington 17
I' m starting to believe that the
Redskins were playing over their
head.

Dave Sautui has not been doing well the last two weeks, but
he has promised me he will im-

prove his record this week with
these picks. He can 't do much
worse.
I' m sorry football fans for my
second bad week of picks in a
row (8-6) . For the year I'm 42-27
for a .609 percentage. You better watch out , Jeff!
