Hostage for 17 months

David Jacohsen released from capt ivity
by Robert J. McCartney

LA Times-Washington Post Service

WEST
WIESBADEN ,
GERMANY—a weary-looking
but high-spirited David Jacobsen ,
his voice choked with emotion ,
thanked the U.S. government
Monday for helping to win his
release after 17 months ' captivity in Lebanon and made a heartfelt plea for efforts to free the remaining U.S. hostages.
"Those guys are in hell. We 've
got to get them home ," Jacobsen
said on arriving at a U.S. Army
airbase here after being released
in Beirut Sunday . Recalling the
lyrics of an old song, he added ,
"The best things in life are free ,
and by God they are . "
Earlier , on a stopover in Larnaca , Cyprus , the 55-year-old
hosp ital director offered a
message of hope to the families
of the remaining hostages: "keep
faith ; the guys will get out. "
Jacobsen , who in two
videotapes made in August and
October had criticized the U.S.

administration for failing to do
enough for the hostages, said here
and in Larnaca that he was "proud of what they (U.S. government officials) have been doing . "
He did not say whether he had
been pressured to make his
original comments .
(Predsident Reagan , arriving at
Los Angeles airport after a
political rally in Las Vegas , was
asked Monday what he was doing to free the remaining
American hostages. He replied:
"We 're going to keep working on
that. " Earlier he said , "we're going throug h channels we can 't
discuss " Washington Post staff
writer Lou Cannon reported.)
British Ang lican Church
representative Terry Waite , apparently the key mediator in winning Jacobsen 's freedom , hinted
that there is hope for six U.S.
citizens and 13 other foreigners
still missing in Lebanon.
Waite , who flew here with
Jacobsen after spending the ni ght
in Cyprus , said there was a
"possibility " that he would

return to Lebanon after staying in
West Germany "for a couple of
days. "
Waite added that he was being
"very careful" about what he
said , because the situation in
Beirut was "very critical. "
U.S. diplomats here and in
Larnaca kept a low profile at the
press conferences and refused to
discuss Jacobsen 's release or the
fate of the remaining victims.
Observers attributed their reluctance to several factors , including
fear of endangering the remaining hostages and an effort to
avoid the impression that desp ite
denials
administration
Washington is negotiating, albeit
it indirectl y, with their Shiite
captors.
Jacobsen was held in Lebanon
by the guerrilla organization
Islamic Jihad , which is believed
to have links to Iran 's revolutionary Islamic government. The
group said Sunday in announcing
Jacobsen 's release that the U.S.
government had undertaken "approaches that could lead , if con-

tinued , to a solution of the
hostage issue. " It did not provide
details.
Islamic Jihad also is believed to
be holding Terry Anderson , chief
Middle East correspondent of
The Associated Press before his
capture , and Thomas Sutherland ,
acting dean of agriculture at the
American University in Beirut.
Those two hostages were confined in the same cell as Jacobsen
and another former hostage, the
Rev . Lawrence Jenco , according
to statements by Jenco when he
was released in July.
Jacobsen said that Anderson
had urged him to grant his first
interview on being released to
The Associated Press , but he did
not say more on the subject.
Jacobsen said he had learned
only Sunday of the capture of
three more Americans in recent
weeks. Groups other than Islamic
Jihad have claimed those
abductions.
Jacobsen expressed special
concern about Joseph Cicippio ,
the American University 's acting
controller , who was kidnapped on
Sept. 12. Jacobsen , who was
director of the American University Hospital before his own abduction on May 28 , 1985, called
Cicippio one of his "closest personal friends. "
' T pray to God that Joe will be
out , be released ," Jacobsen said .
Jacobsen and Waite were flown
here from Cyprus in a Swissowned Lear jet chartered by the
State Department after being ferried from Beirut in two U.S.
Navy helicopters. It was unclear
why Waite accompanied him.
Waite and Jacobsen were
greeted here by Michael Newlin ,
deputy assistant secretary of state
for consular affairs , and Alexander Rattray , U.S. consulgeneral in the nearby city of
Frankfurt.
Initial medical examinations
showed that Jacobsen was tired
but otherwise in "very good condition ," Col. Charles Maffet ,
commander of the U.S. Air Force
hospital here, where Jacobsen
was staying, said.

Residence Life to hold
program about off-campus
housing awareness
by Sandi Kaden
for the Voice

The Residence Life Department is planning to sponsor informative programs about offcampus housing that are directed
toward potential off-campus
students and students who currently live off campus.
These programs offered in individual residence halls , are
directed by Donald Young, Resident Director of Montour Hall.
There will also be a meeting held
in the Union called Off-Campus
Day, co-sponsored by the
Association
for
Resident
Students.
Young believes that student
awareness is the main goal of his
job and of the upcoming programs ". Problems arise when
students don 't really understand
the terms of their lease but sign
it anyway , not knowing the binding legal ramifications it contains. "Don 't just take a lease and
sign it ," Young says to all

students who are planning to
move off campus. There is a
campus lawyer available to
students who need legal
assistance with their leases.
Students also encounter problems when their landlords don 't
follow through on the terms of the
contract. In an effort to iron out
these problems , Young is try ing
to organize a Tenant/Landlord
Organization to keep the lines of
communication open between the
two parties.
Young also believes that
students who already live off
campus need to become aware
that they are now responsible to
the Bloomsburg community as
well as the University . It is important for them to become acquainted with the town 's rules
and regulations.
Residence Life tries to keep upto-date listings of all available
housing and also sends a Newsletter out to all off-campus students
in order to keep them in touch
with on and off campus activities .

Scheduling woes plague university
by Wanda Willis
For the Voice

Once again , scheduling time
has arrived at Bloomsburg
University .
Long lines of frustrated
students wind around the coffeshouse. Students scan doors for
schedules of advisors that can not
be found.
Classes you need for major or
graduation requirements are filled up when you reach the
terminals.
Every BU student knows this
scene all too well , Freshmen are
confused by this long and
unrewarding process.
Sophomores know the ropes ,
but , dread their attempts , realizing at least one of their classes
will be closed.
Upperclassmen have better
chances at getting what they want
because they schedule first , but
the hassle of scheduling still
looms over everyone 's heads until their senior year when they
finish scheduling for their final
semester.
Senior biology major Ed Smith
gives one reason why scheduling
at BU is such a time-consuming,
worrisome concern for everyone
involved.
Smith says that he never had
trouble getting classes in his major , but general education courses
are often offered when he has
three hour labs. As a result , he
has to take night classes.

The renovation of Sutliff Hall
has eliminated much classroom
space, but Registrar Ken Schnure
says that there are still the same
number of classes, but they are
sread out over the whole day .
He claims that more classes are
scheduled at four and five o'clock
than before .
Curriculum and foundations
professor Ann Marie Noakes
says , "Students are not as aware
of faculty loads and schedules and
that there are certain times when
we can not offer two sections. "
She added , "I would like to
have classes at other times , but
there are no classrooms for me. "
Schnure says that most faculty
members have four sections each
by contract. He claims that if the
size of the faculty was increased
to give students a better chance
at getting much-needed classes ,
the number of classrooms would
have to increase.
Schnure says that lines are
longer as the number of credits
earned decreases , especially with
freshmen. For freshmen ,
scheduling is a new experience.
Preferred sections fill, so alternate sections have to be provided. Many have to go to their advisors and come back to the
terminals.
This process takes more time
for upperclassmen .
Schnure also says scheduling in
the spring for the following fall
takes less time because seniors
are preparing to graduate and the

new freshmen and transfers have
not come yet.
Their scheduling is done in the
summer. In the fall , however ,
everyone must schedule for the
spring.
Senior Michele Heimbach says
a recurring problem for her are
the listings of how many seats are
open in each course.
She says that the sheets are not
updated often enough so she
thinks seats are available in a certain section but when she gets to
the terminal , it 's closed.
A change in the procedure this
semester is the new scheduling
forms. There are three copies.
The pink one is left with the advisor and the yellow and white
ones are taken to the coffeehouse.
If scheduling is completed
without a problem , the registrar
keeps the white copy and sends
it back to the advisor so the advisor can comapare it with his
original pink form to make sure
the student scheduled the appropriate classes.
The student keeps the yellow
copy.
If the student has a problem and
can not get a class , he or she
simply takes the form with that
class crossed out and a new form
to the advisor who helps figure
out what to do next.
Coordinator of Academic Advisement Ron DiGiondomenico
says that because of the new
form, an incomplete schedule will
not take time to be printed out like

previously.
If a student schedules a class
th at was not discussed with the
advisor due to a section closing,
an explanation to the advisor may
be necessary.
Smith says that he likes being
able to have a copy of his
schedule with him when he leaves
the coffeehouse instead of having
to wait to get it in his mailbox.
However, students will still
receive a schedule in their boxes.
DiGiondomenico, whose main
responsibility is to see that BU's
more than 600 undeclared
students are advised , says, "The
form is a matter of control for all
parties involved . "
Noakes said that hopefully the
triplicate form will prevent
students from changing courses
without checking to see if it 's applicable to their course of study .
Dr. Leo Barrile of the
sociology and social welfare
department says, "No matter
what the form , there will always
be ways to informally circumvent
the intended purpose of the
form. "
DiGiondomenico says, "The
university is acutely aware of the
problem and is constantly dealing
with it. " He says the university
looks at new scheduling systems
and listens to suggestions from
students and faculty about how to
improve this tedious process.
Smith, a transfer , says the college he attended before coming to
BU was much smaller and had a

system of scheduling without
computers .
First, he says, a student planned his classes for the next
semester and then took it to his
advisor for approval. The advisor
would check the student's record
to make sure he was taking the
right courses at the right time.
The student took his advisorapproved schedule to the
registrar 's office and waited in
long lines for the registrar to
make sure the classes he chose
were relevant to his course of
study. He then took it back to his
advisor for final approval .
Before BU used the on-line
system, mark sensitive forms ,
similar to multiple choice testing
forms were used .
For scheduling , students filled
in the proper code numbers on
their forms for the classes chosen .
They left them with their advisors
who sent them to the department
office.
The department office sent it to
the registrar who processed all the
forms at once and sent schedules
back to students .
There were several downfalls
of this system. Students filled in
the wrong numbers and the
registrar 's office had to regrid 40
percent of the forms.
It took six weeks at times to
send schedule cards to the
students, and advisors did not
receive copies of their advisees
schedules .
For a little while longer,

scheduling for next semester continues. Still , the perfect system
has yet to be found , but BU is
continuing to try to get the kinks
out of the present one.

Commen tary ,

A definition of The Voice
Within the framework of this
institution , the administrative offices on campus fulfill individual
roles; each has its own task or
tasks to concern itself with . The
same holds true for the media on
campus.
Rarely are there questions raised regarding the duties , responsibilities , actions or inactions of
these administrative offices or the
people in them .
Xhe role of this newspaper , on
the other hand , is constantly in
question. It is viewed as a toy for
journalism students by some, a
device for the propagation of
press releases by others , and an
attempt at becoming what it
should be by a recent letter
writer.
It seems apparent that the time
has come to define the role of this
paper.
The responsibilities of The
Voice revolve around relating the
events that occur in and affect the

campus community, both positive
and negative , to anyone who
cares to read the paper.
These responsibilities also entail the dispersal of ideas , both
those of the staff and anyone else
who cares to write The Voice.
There is no bias connected to this ,
nor is there an attempt to create
a scandal sheet , as some have
suggested.
This is not to say the staff will
not question the actions of
members of this community .
There is a responsibility to inform
and address the issues.
Aggressiveness in journalism is
not a crime. Occasionall y, someone will use the term
muckraker to describe the paper
or a member of the staff and do
so to illustrate dissatisfaction.
What these individuals fail to
realize is that journalists are
taught to investigate , given lectures on 'digging ' and encouraged to do so. To what an outsider

may appear an insult is often
taken quietly as a definite compliment , thoug h it may not have
been intended that way .
As the onl y newspaper on campus , The Voice has the duty to
stay as close to neutral as possible. Earlier this semester and last
semester , The Voice was accused of being a 'ri ght wing '
newspaper because it was running Tom Miller 's columns and
not running a 'left wing ' column
as well.
Aside fro m the fact that most
of Miller 's columns would
receive an avalanche of
responses, these too to be printed,
the staff accepted that Mr. Miller
has the right to express his views,
as does anyone else.
As said by one of our editors
in a guest column earlier this
semester , the paper will continue
to question. The only comment to
be added is it shall do so fairly.

Student not faceless

Editor:
On Tuesday, Oct. 21 , 1 walked to my campus mailbox (I have
two because the campus can 't
seem to change it to one) for the
fifth time in two weeks.
I was looking and had been
waiting for the card that would
enable me to go to the Reg istrar
and pick up my spring scheduling booklet. It was not there .
My friends told me there was
a deadline beyond which one
could not pick up a booklet. Of
course , 1 did not know that since
the deadline appeared on the
card .
I went to the Reg istrar 's office
on Oct. 21 and after signing my
name , received a scheduling
booklet. My time to schedule
classes was Friday, Oct. 24, at 11
a.m. I was sick in bed that day ,
so I called long distance , explaining my situation. I was told I
could schedule on Monday , Oct.
27.
On Monday , I got up two hours
earl y and drove forty miles to
register. Registration was closed ,
scheduling to reopen on Tuesday .
With a Zoology lab Tuesday
morning that I could not miss, my
intention was to register as soon
after class as possible. The line
was out the door , so I waited.
At some point a student with
115 credits commented that upperclassmen could go ri ght
throug h the line. After having
waited an hour or so, I moved to
the front of the line to register.

Voice Editorial Policy
The editorials in The Voice
arc the opinions and concerns
of the editorial staff , and not
necessarily the opinions of all
members of The Voice staff ,
or the student population of
Bloomsburg University.
The Voice invites all
readers to express their opinions on the editorial page
through letters to the editor
and guest columns. All submissions must be signed and include a phone number and address for verification , although
names on letters will be
withheld upon request.
The Voice reserves the
right to edit and condense all
submissions.
All submissions should be
sent to The Voice office , Kehr
Union Building, Bloomsburg
University, or dropped off at
the office in the games room.

Upon arriving at the terminal ,
they keyed in my number , found
a hold from summer semester and
would not let me register.
The gentleman in charge of
reg istration said I must go to
Waller Business Office and
stra ighten out the problem. The
irony of all this was that two
weeks prior to this , I had been to
Waller and specificall y made sure
all of my bills were paid.
The woman had assured me
that any holds would be removed. I had suspected something
was awry when I never got my
card .
I went to Waller and was told
someone had forgotten to clear
my account. By now , many
underclassmen had scheduled
ahead of me. I returned to Kehr
and scheduled successfully.
There is a message in this protracted story . This is my second
semester at BU. Both times , after
scheduling, I have come away
frustrated , shaking my head and
wondering how this institution
continues to function.
The school and its personnel
(with few exceptions) have gone
out of their way to make my life
miserable. They have taken a
carefree , happy , productive student and caused her to become a
clock-watcher , pray ing it will all
be over soon.
I cannot and will not overlook
this incompetence and total lack
of regard and consideration
anymore . In my opinion , the
compounded errors , the indifference and ignorance of some
are inexcusable.
I will not be processed as a
faceless number in the cogs of
some invisible machine that does
not function properly.
You would not be well advised to dismiss this letter as the irrational ravings of an 18-yearold. I am not. Further , if you
doubt my past attitude regarding
my education , consider my involvement in the Honors Pro-

Any student interested in
writing an editorial column, either once or on a
regular basis , should
contact The Voice.

gra m (another fiasco).
The crowning touch to Tuesday , Oct. 21 , was that after the
registration experience, I went to
Bakeless at 1:15 to wait for my
3:30 class. At 3:20, as I was standing outside room 211 and the
previous class was dismissing, a
friend , also in the 3:30 class , informed me that the professor was
ill and class was cancelled.
It seems to me that a simple
policy of posting a notice outside
the door of the classroom would
prevent this type of situation.
This , however , presumes two
things: first, that someone cares
about the students ' time, and se(
cond , that someone in trie 'office
would be responsible enough to
post the notice on a couple of
classrooms.
Since I am a non-traditional
student , I have a lot more productive and pleasurable things to do
than hang around the hallowed
halls of Bakeless for two hours ,
waiting for a professor who is
home sick.
I am insensed at the entire BU
experience and cannot wait until
it is over , a sad commentary for
one 's college experience. I hav e
two semesters to go and I'll complete them , doing a good job
despite all of it.
There is one thing you can be
sure of. My son is scheduled to
start here in January (although he
has yet to hear anything since his
application in April), and I will
do everything I can to influence
him in another direction. I will do
the same for anyone else considering BU.
Very truly yours ,

Wiley and The Hairy Man entertains all
by Jeff Cox

Associate Editor

Probably the best thing about
Theatre for Young Audiences ,
a.k.a. Children 's Theatre , is that
there exists somewhere in eveiy
person , be it in some in the
deepest recesses of their subconscious, a little bit of a child.
Let it also be said that good
theatre is good theatre , in any
form , and that saying that a
children 's play is not legitimate
theatre , or does not deserve to be
evaluated on the same level as
adult theatre , just does not make
sense. Case in point —the
Bloomsburg Players ' production
of Wiley and the Hairy Man.
This is a show that is aimed
specifically at young audiences ,
but indeed is theatre for all audiences. It is not onl y good
children 's theatre , it is good
theatre. In fact , it is great theatre ,

and deserves a look from people
of all ages.
From the outset when walking
into the Carver Hall theatre, the
atmosphere of the show comes
out and grabs the viewer.
There are five figures on the
stage-Wiley , and the four
members of the chorus. Wiley is
somewhat noticeable as he curls
under his covers dreaming of the
Hairy Man , but Karen Mackes'
costuming is so well done , so appropriate for this uni que kind of
choru s, that you do not even immediately notice the chorus-they
merely blend into the scenery .
And being part of the scenery
for this ensemble of actors is
essential , for at times they are the
scenery. There is a basic
framework on the stage, and
whatever else is needed , the
chorus becomes.
When Wiley must climb a tree
to obtain safety from the Hairy

Jacobsen released after
17 month captivity

From page 1
The patient "lost a little
weight " during his long Captivity, but he was fed adequately and
showed no signs of having been
abused physically , Maffet said at
a news conference Monday
afternoon.
Jacobsen 's three children were
expected to arrive here Tuesday
to visit their father , who is
divorced .
Jacobsen , despite the fatigue
evident in his bloodshot eyes,
talked freely and cracked several
jokes during his 15-minute appearance before 100 reporters and
30 military personnel on the edge
of the runway at the Wiesbaden
Army air facility .
Jacobsen , a native of Huntington Beach , Calif. , began his
remarks by saying: "As a native
son of the beautiful state of
California , you give me a chance,
and I'm going to be talking for
days." But he devoted most of his
comments to praising Waite ,
thanking the U.S. government ,
and calling for freedom of those
left behind.
Jacobsen 's voice dropped a bit
as he referred in passing to the
videotapes in which he had

them.
Weible exits a beaten Hairy
Man after engaging in a fastpaced battle of wits with someone
who was a little stronger. Weible's contribution of pure excitement to the show made the Hairy
Man come to life.
Steve Firmstone 's lighting
desi gn is simply brilliant . His
li ghting gives the show a constant
dreamy effect , and provides as
much mag ic as a good conjur
from Mammy .
Add to that stunning special effects such as a light that comes
from the bottom of the stage
where the magic book is stored
and tasteful use of dry ice
machines (they can be cliche if
their use is not justified) along
with the effects created by the
chorus , and it adds up to visual
ecstasy.
Tim Karlson 's set gives the
show the feeling of something
created in a dream. The two areas
on stage, though they are supposed to be in different areas
geographicall y, do not conflict ,
and the backstage arch helps
create stage perspective.
In addition , the coloring of the
set provides the key ingredient for
the effectiveness of the chorus.
If for nothing else, see this
show to watch Wendy Tennis ,
Mimi Mikalac , Steve Sunderlin
and Lisa Landis create a chorus
that goes from being an alligator
to a tree to quicksand . The rest
of the show will simply draw you
in like the breeze that the chorus
also creates.
Marci Woodruff is the director
responsible for this masterpiece.
Wiley and the Hairy Man continues its run in Carver Hall until Saturday , with shows starting
at 8 p.m. and a 2 p.m. Saturday
matinee. Admission is free with

Sifting through all of the pickup artists, nerds, and weirdo (not
to mention psycho) guys in this
world , girls often overlook the
' 'nice guy'' out of sheer paranoia.
The suggestion of going for a
drive no longer brings to a girl' s
mind soft music and interesting
conversation. Instead, she expects
an all-star tag team wrestling
match. And it is no longer simply a matter of "tag, you 're it. "
Girls today are no longer gullible. The airplane pilot and CIA
lines no longer cut it and "want
to see my etchings" is either met
with a knowing smile or a slap in
the face. God forbid a guy should
actually be an artist!
What separates the "nice guy "
is the absence of lines and pickup techniques. This individual
prides himself on being just that ,
himself. Unfortunately , one of
the most effective pick-up techniques today is imitating our hero .
It is only a matter of motives that
separates this "artist " from the
real thing . The girl then must rely on the test of time to tell.
Finally, one of the few , a "nice
guy ," steps up and passes all the

...and the bovs

_J

trials and tests. One would think
the battle is over, happiness
abounds and the two live happily ever after , but then our hero's
best asset becomes his biggest
liability. In her eyes, he turns
from "a sweet guy " to "too
nice!"
That 's right. What helped him
before now counts him out
because girls today only pretend
to want to meet nice guys. On the
other hand , they do not want
psycho creeps either.
They want a challenge. They
want someone who does not
know them from Eve to fall for
them, or someone who will hurt
them into martyrdom and then
come begging for forgiveness.
So the old adage is true. "Nice
guys finish last. " The trick then ,
for those of you who "fall" into
this category, is to be yourself until she gets interested and then
cool it. Being yourself only gets
you so far. What a game.

A note "at Large":
It is to my chagrin that I am
forced to announce the end of
"Student at Large." Now , in the
role of executive editor, it is no
longer my place to poke fun at the
stupidity here in Bumblesburg .
Stepping down, I thank those

they will remain so without me.

Man , the chorus contorts their
way together to create a tree that
is barely an illusion .
When performing in this kind
of sfeow for this type of audience ,
the reality of the illusion must be
maintained. This includes running the entire gamut of physical
portrayal.
They accentuate and give
meaning to the action in the
show.
But the chorus would have an
impossible job if the actors did
not deliver , and they do.
Jeff Morgan 's Wiley brings to
mind the fears that we all felt as
children as he gets inside his
character 's motives . To portray
the child and relate to the child
you must think as the child—you
must be the child , and when
Morgan bites his lower lip to
show his fear and trepidation
toward the Hairy Man , we know
he is.
But then Colette Barni' s Mammy is there to make her son finally grow up a little and face his
fears. Barni' s eyes show fond
reflection when Wiley mentions
his father, a man who never did
much good in his life, but yet
Mammy still loved him.
When Mammy conjures , Barni , again through intense eye
focus , establishes a point of
reference in the environment that
leads us to believe that she is
looking into the unknown to find
the spell that will get her what she
wants .
Barni and Morgan blend
together as mother and son and
pull off some spectacular comedy . Most of the comedy is based on Mammy teaching Wiley
how to survive , and if a maternal relationship is not established , then the scenes lose their
effect.
Then , as Mammy sends Wiley
on his own to conquer the Hairy
Man , Chris Kehr 's haunting,
spacey swamp music surrounds
Wiley and pulls us into the scene.
Kehr's background music in,
the shov/l does exactly what
background music should. It
establishes the mood firmly while
not overtaking the scene—
basically , that which is least
noticed but most felt.
As Wiley confronts the Hairy
Man , Joel Weible brings his
character onto the stage with a
rush of adrenaline and hungrily
peers at Wiley. Weibel throws
fear at the audience with a performance marked with high
energy and hilarious displays of
frustration.
But at the end , Wiley exposes
the Hairy Man as beatable and not
so scary after all , driving home
the message of the only way to
defeat your fears is to confront

The Bloomsburg University
field hockey team has qualified to
participate in the NCAA Division
III regional tournaments this
weekend , thanks to an excellent
performance this season.
The team played well to end
their season 15-1-2. It required a
great deal of commitment from
Head Coach Jan Hutchinson 's
team to make it as far as they
have , but there is still a tough
contest ahead .
The past season found the
Huskies well on their way to the
tournaments , as they posted ten
wins before ty ing Division I
Bucknell.
This is a brief summary of the
season.
Marywood (7-0)
It was the first game of the
season and the Huskies gave an
indication of what was to come
as goalie Lori Guitson shut out
Marywood .
Donna Graupp had 3 goals ,
while Diane Shields netted two
and Carla Shearer and Tracy
Nilles each garnered one.
Susquehanna (3-0)
This game , almost played by
the JV team , was scoreless in the
first half. In the second half ,
Nilles scored two goals , while
Daneen Fero added a solo goal.
Goalie Lisa Balestrini had 5 saves
while shutting down the SU
offense.
Slippery Rock (7-1)
BU travelled four hours to
leave their mark on Slippery
Rock. They scored 5 goals in the
first half en route to victory .
Maureen Duffy scored two
goals with Lynn Hurst , Kate
Denneny, Kim Fey, Shields and
Graupp chi pping in with a goal
apiece. The first goal scored on
the Huskies in the season was by
Marleene Hall late in the second
half.
Indiana (6-0)
This game saw the Huskies
register their th ird shut out of the
season. Fey scored two goals
while Cindy Deeche , Shields ,
Denneny and Graupp shared the
other four.
Gettysburg (3-0)
On the strength of a two goal
performance by Shields and a
goal by Hurst the Huskies turned in their fifth win in a row.

who recorded 29 saves , BU
tender Lori Guitson had 4.

game in the first half and the

outshoot EMC 51-1 , also had
Hurst with two more goals, along
with Denneny , Graupp and Alicia
Terrizzi scoring one each. The
EMC goalie recorded 34 saves.

BU met their best competitor!
of the season , to that point. The
Huskies accumulated 25 shots on
goal , while Messiah managed to
get 18.

on a penalty stroke in the second
half.

with their ninth strai ght victory .

Southwest Missouri State , a
Division I team , travelled far
from their home to play Division
III BU , onl y to be handed a
shutout.
Denneny led the team , posting
both goals in the second half.
Bucknell (1-1)
Division I Bucknell broke BU' s'
10-game winning streak by tying
the Huskies after two ten-minute
overtime periods.
BU' s Denneny struck first , just
31 seconds into the game. The
Bucknell goalie held for the remainder of the game.

called back , BU outshot GU

The battle for third place in the
Pennsy lvania Conference ' s
Eastern Division will take place
this Saturday , Nov . 8, when
Bloomsburg University hosts
Kutztown University in Robert B.
Redman Stadium. Game time is
set for 1 p.m.
Both teams have been
eliminated from the divisional
race suffering losses to frontrunners
West
Chester and
Millersville. The Huskies and
Golden Bears are 3-2 in the PC
East , while the leaders are both
5-0 and will play for the title on
Nov. 15.
Bloomsburg guaranteed itself
of a winning season with a hard fought 24-22 victory over Slippery Rock last Saturday . Coach
Pete Adrian 's club now stands at
6-2 with only a contest at Norfolk
State remaining after the encounter with Kutztown. Kutztown will be looking to register
its first winning season since
1983. The Golden Bears, under
veteran coach George Baldwin ,
have an overall mark of 5-4.
Once again, junior runningback
Tom Martin led the way offensively for Bloomsburg as he collected 140 yards on 24 carries and
scored one time. The contest
marked the fourth time that Martin passed the 100-yard plateau in

a game this season. He leads the
team in touchdowns with eight
and is the top rusher with 673
yards on 133 carries. In the last
five games , the team has gained
656 yard s on the ground after accumulating just 180 yard s in the
first three games of the season.
Jay DeDea completed 12 of 28
passes for 155 yards and one
touchdown. The senior quarterback ran for a score fro m five
yards out and threw a six-yard
scoring pass to wide receiver Ken
Liebel in Bloomsburg 's 17-point
third quarter. For the season ,
DeDea has completed 134 of 282
pass attempts for 1867 yards and
12 touchdowns. He has been intercepted 11 times .
Tight end Kevin Grande is
gradually closing in on the
school's all-time career receptions record . The senior has been
the team 's leading receiver in all
four seasons with the Huskies and
currently has 36 catches for 433
yards and three touchdowns in
1986. He has 127 career catches
for 1238 yards and 13
touchdowns. Former NFL standout Bob Tucker (1965-1967)
holds the Bloomsburg record with
131 receptions.
Nose guard Wes Cook enjoyed
his second solid game in a row
last week recording 11 tackles

(eight unassisted and a sack of the
Slippery Rock quarterback) . He
now has 67 tackles and four
sacks.
Linebacker Jake Williams is
the Huskies ' tackle leader with
71; he has also recovered three
opponent fumbles and intercepted
three passes. Butch Kahlau , the
other linebacker , and strong safety Brian Scriven are not far
behind the leaders with 64 and 52
tackles respectively.
GAME NOTES : This is the
40th
meeting
between
Bloomsburg and Kutztown with
the Huskies holding a 21-18 edge
in the series. Bloomsburg won
last year 's game in Kutztown ,
29-23, on its way to a secondstraight PC Eastern Division title. In that contest, Tom Martin
set two school records with 42
carries for 259 yards. He scored
two times. Bloomsburg trailed
23-14 entering the final quarter
but took the victory with a pair
of one-yard scoring runs by Martin and Calvin Robinson. Martin 's performance overshadowed
a 160-yard effort by Kutztown 's
Bob DiRico.
For their performances last
Saturday , Tom Martin and Wes
Cook have been named to the
Eastern College Athletic Conference's (ECAC) Weekly Honor
Roll.

other goalie (BU 9 KU 4). . ,

first half , with Hurst claiming
two and Denneny claiming, the
third .

and the Huskies jumped to the
lead behind the shooting of
Graupp iri the second overtime
period. Ithaca avenged two
minutes later , setting the final

Salisbury State
BU' s luck tu rned sour for the
first time this season as the
Huskies were not just beaten but
shutout.
Salisbury also had their
troubles posting only eight shots
on goal and seven penalty corners, but scoring four times.
In the second half , the Huskies
improved but were still unable to
score . The Huskies shot on goal
23 times against five for
Salisbury . BU also upped their
penalty corners to 14 but still
came up empty .
"We played well in the first
half ," said Hutchinson after the
game, "but we were cutting for
the ball in the second half ,
without luck. I think this loss will
be good for the team , because it
will take the pressure of remaining undefeated off. "
Mansfield (4-1)
It looked like Coach Hutchinson 's words were coming true .
Shields , Graupp, Hurst and
Shearer shared the scoring with
one goal apiece.
The Huskies amassed 14 penalty corners compared to the
Mounties five. BU also outshot
their opponent 25 to nine.

Sharon Reill y with an assist being credited to Shearer.
BU totaled 27 shots on goal

Huskies also amassed 19 penalty
corners against the Diplomats 6.

Indiana University (5-1)
In the second contest of the
year between the two, it was three
goals by Shearer , along with a
goal apiece by Graupp and Reilly, who provided the offense.
Millersville (0-1)
Desp ite outshooting the
Mauraders , 26-7, Millersville
captured the PSAC crown on the
strength of a 20 save performance
by their goalie.
"It was a tough game, " said
Hutchinson ,"We hope to see
them in nationals. "
Husky coach Jan Hutchinson
had nothing but praise for her
team's play this year. "This is
probably the most talented team
I' ve ever coached. "
"We had a very good year
overall—for a days we didn 't play
up to our potential , but every
team has their ups and downs.
Although losing the state championship was disappointing, I
think it has really fired us up for
the Nationals ," she added.
In closing, All-American Carla
Shearer added , "Overall , I think
this season was definitely a success. "

Saints upset Rams
Okay , okay, I ve learned my
lesson. No more crazy upset
specials that have Indianapolis
picked to win. As a matter of fact,
they should be ripped apart by the
Patriots this week. Last weeks
7-7 record and last place finish
were a real disappointment to me.
Though Jeff beat me this week,
I'm still hanging close. My
record for the year stands at
61-36 for a .629 percentage.
There are some very interesting
matchups high-lighting Week 10,
including the Jets vs. Falcons, the
Raiders vs. Cowboys, and the
Chiefs (surprisingly 6-3) vs.
Seahawks. My upsets have the
Saints knocking off the Rams and
the Browns tripping up the
Dolphins.
Now , on to Week 10:
Chicago 28 Tampa Bay 14
The Bears FINALLY return to
their winning ways as the Bucs
come back to earth after only
their second win.
Cincinnati 31 Houston 10
Let's face it, Houston looked
absolutely pathetic against a pretty pathetic Miami team, while the
Bengals came away with a win
against a Detroit team playing at
home.
New Orleans 20 L.A. Rams 17
Both teams are coming off of
big upsets, and I think the Saints
looked a little bit more impressive
than the Rams. Look for New
Orleans to pull a big turn-around
for the second half of the year.
Minnesota 35 Detroit 17
Yes Jeff , I was surprised , the
Vikes played the Redskins pret-j
ty tough. The Lions will probably?
put up an early struggle before
falling victim to themselves.
New England 40 Indianapolis 6
This should be no contest for
the Patriots. Colts :are going,
nowhere fast .
N.Y. Jets 27 Atlanta 20
Jets are looking better and better with each passing week while
the Falcons have struggled as of
late. It should still be close, but
O'Brien , Walker , and Toon will

DAVE SAUTER
lead New York to victory .
Pittsburgh 21 Buffalo 20
Like I said last week, the
Steelers still have a slight chance
for the playoffs with a strong second half. Buffalo 's hopes for a
decent season have been all but
obliterated .
,
Kansas City 28 Seattle 27
The Chiefs just keep coming up
with ways to win at the end , and
will do it again against the
Seahawks. Curt Warner 's great
day will be wasted.
Washington 30 Green Bay 10
Even Ted Kistler could get this
one right!
Dallas 20 L.A. Raiders 16
The Raiders disappointed me
last week in a game I really feel
they should have won. Dallas will
be burning after their tough loss
to Giants .
San Francisco 24 St. Louis 14
How the Cardinals beat the
Eagles is beyond me, but it 's
almost a sure bet they 'll fall victim to the 49er attack, led by the
possible return of Joe Montana.
Denver 19 San Diego 7
The Broncos win again as the
Chargers stay on track for one of
their worst season ever.
N.Y. Giants 31 Philadelphia 7
The Giants led by little Joe
Morris plow through the Eagle
defense. Meanwhile L.T. and
Co. tear apart Philadelphia .
Cleveland 28 Miami 20
The Browns look for real this

year as Berme Kosar improves
with each Sunday . The Dolphins
can only win against the patsies
of the league.
JAIME HORLACHER
Taking top honors with a 9-5
record , Jamie improved his
overall record to 56-28 and
moves into second place with a
.666 percentage.

Ouch! Another tough week
gave me a dismal 8-6 mark ,
lowering the season mark to
66-32 for a percentage of .673.
One final note. I now exit the
sports and features desk as I move
on up to Associate Editor of the
Voice as we change administration . Never fear , though , my
predictions will remain every
Thursday , but I turn the controls
of the Sports section over to Dave
Sauter and Mike Mullen.
