A University ad hoc committee is being formed to review the
Campus Judicial System. The job
of the committee will be to
streamline and clarify the Judical
System, according to Robert Norton , dean of student life.
The committee has not yet
received an official charge , but
two of its magor duties will be to
review the Code of Conduct and
develope a policy on hazing.
Recent state legislation requires
that every college or university
enact a hazing policy .
Norton estimates there will be
roughly 12 members, made up
equally of faculty and students.
"We want a cross-section of
students," said Norton , "some
Resident Advisors, some independents , and some Greeks ."
Norton expects the committee
to complete its report by the end
of the year. It will present its conclusions to a series of open
forums.

A controversial film dealing
with South African apartheid will
be shown at Bloomsburg University . "Witness to Apartheid ",
filmed in secrecy during the 1985
state of emergency in South
Africa , presents compelling
testimony by victims and
witnesses of police violence in the
townships.
This highly acclaimed one-hour
documentary focuses on the
brutal effects of apartheid on the
children , a story that has not been
told desp ite all the media attention given to South Africa.
Witnesses include black adults
and children~as young as 14who have been tortured in detention or assaulted on the street by
police.
Both black and white doctors
who treat torture victims, speak
out for the first time to interpret
graphic evidence of abuse.
In the film. Dr. Clifford

Goldsmith reports that his young
patients , while in custody, had
wounds stitched up by army doctors , but with no anesthetic "as
a form of torture."
"Witness to Apartheid " cites
studies claiming that 83 percent
of those detained for opposing
apartheid (nearly all black) are
physically abused while in
custody . Some detainees are injured so badly, they require immediate medical attention upon
their release.
John Fourie, an Afrikaaner
advertising executive, provides
transportation for those needing
medical care. Fourie confesses
that he feels ashamed of his white
skin , and says "the children are
really being abused. I felt the time
had to finally stand up and be
counted. "

Nuclear testing site attracts protesters
by Cathleen Decker

L.A. Times-Washington Post Service

About 2 ,000 protesters converged on the Nevada Test Site
Thursday for the largest antinuclear demonstration in the
federal facility 's 36-year history ,
and 437 were arrested by waiting
sheriff's deputies when they
crossed a boundry line.
During a four-hour demonstration , the protesters chanted "No
more sting" and took the Reagan
administration's anti-drug slogan,
"Just Say No!" as their own.
Despite its size , the protest was
orderl y. Sheriff' s deputies
reported onl y one skirmish during which a protester , who was
not immediatel y identified ,
reportedly bit two deputies. He
was booked for resisting arrest.
The others were arrested for
trespassing, deputies said. Two
men were arrested after their hot
air balloon dumped them several
hundred feet inside the federal
grounds , to the cheers of
onlookers.
The protest was to have coin

cided with the first U.S.
underground nuclear test in 1987,
but
that
test ,
dubbed
"Hazebrook" by the Department
of Energy, was detonated beneath
Yucca Flat on the 1,350-squaremile test site Tuesday , not Thursday as the demonstrators had
expected .
Anti-nuclear activists saw the
test as being important because
the Soviet union had said that
would end its 19-month
moratorium on testing when the
U.S. made its first test in 1987.
Despite federal denials , protest
organizers accused the Department of Energy of moving up the
test to detract from the
demonstration. But it appeared
Thursday that the early test may
have worked in the protesterss
favor.
Chris Brown , executive director of Southern California for a
Bilateral Nuclear Weapons
Freeze, said that anger over the
Tuesday teat had swelled the
300-person Southern California
contingent 's ranks .
"The night the test went off ,

close to 40 people called ... just
the night of the test ," he said.
In size and numbers of arrest ,
the Thursday protest eclipsed any
in the history of the Nevada Test
Site, 60 miles north of Las Vegas .
Previousl y,
the largest
demonstration had broug ht
together 500 protesters and the
largest number of arrests was
149, in 1986.
Protesters gathered in the parking lot of the University of
Nevada , Las Vegas , at dawn
Thursday and set off in caravan
to the test site. Headed by 20
buses, the caravan included more
than 100 cars from states as far
flung as Oregon and Missouri.
Other demonstrators , including
th ree men from Rhode Island ,
flew to Nevada and caught rides
to the test site.
Five members of CongressReps. Patricia Schroeder , DColo., Thomas Downey , DN.Y., Barbera Boxer, D-Calif. ,
and Leon E. Pannetta , D-Calif.-

dressed the protesters .
Fewer than a quarter of the
demonstrators intentionally crossed the site's boundry line and
were arrested by deputies in what
amounted
to
a
wellchoreographed protest ballot.
Among the first were actors
Martin Sheen, Robert Blake, and
Kris Kristofferson, activist Daniel
Ellsberg and astronomer-author
Carl Sagan , whose steps over the
line were recorded by dozens of
still and television cameras and
drew huge rounds of applause
from other demonstrators .

September of 1985, all killed by
police or soldiers. The undertaker, arrested shortly after his interview with producer Sharon
Gopher , says "they (the police)
shoot to kill. Nearly all the
children have multiple gunshot
wounds, to the head and chest. "
Nobel Peace Prize-winner Archbishop Desmond Tutu speaks
out frankly in the film about his
doubts for the future of peaceful
change. "It's a wonder they
(black youth) still regard me as
a leader. I have delivered absolutely nothing. I've said to them
'Let's try and see whether we can
change the system peacefully, '
and I've not delivered the
goods."
Producer Sharon Sopher , who
has won Emmies and other
awards for her TV journalism
while a staff news producer at
NBC , has been on assignment in
Africa 12 times.
While covering the guerrilla
war against Rhodesia in 1977 for
NBC News, she produced the

Apathy deciding factor
by Jeff Cox
Inlitor

The matter concerns 100 percent of the student population, yet
last year, onl y about 13.5 percent
of it was interested.
The matter also concerns the
immediate future of the university , yet no one seems to care.
Still , in past years The Voice has
tried in vain to stimulate student
interest by providing in-depth
front page co\ erage of this
hallowed
y e a r l y r i t u a l at
Bloomsburi: l" ni\ ersit\ .
Trie "matter being referred to
is the upcoming CGA elections at
at Bl' . w h i c h in past years have
aroused about as much student interest as the relation of peanut
butter and jell y sandwiches to the
human condition. .
Vet. even throug h all of this
apath y. The Voice was recentl y ,
shall we say. strong ly urged by
current CGA President Tim Keffer to again provide full front
page coverage of CGA elections.
Keffer felt that the elections are
"more important than anything
else we could put on the front
page. "
This statement made me think
that Keffe r should actually be
riszht. These elections should be

foremost on student s minds right
now . but the fact is they are not.
Therefore , we have a dilemma.
We felt that we gave CGA fair
coverage by providing a front
page lead story on the recent
presidential debate, but yet it appears that Keffer feels The Voice
is under some type of obli gation
to the CGA to give them as much
coverage as they so desire .
However. Mr. Keffer , the fact
of the matter is that we do not
owe coverage to CGA or any
other organization.
Our obli gation as a newspaper
is to provide fair and accurate
coverage of anything that we
deem newsworthy on or around
campus, in addition to the occassional national news stories that
we run. It is not to be at the beck
and call of every organization on
campus that wants to see their
names in print.
Our only gages for what we
should cover and what we should
not are : a) our own evaluation of
newsworthiness , and b) student
interest.
While the newsworthiness of
the CGA* elections is obvious , it
is just as obvious that an overwhelming majority of students
could care less.
This dilemma is similar to the

one we faced with our coverage
of national news from our L.A.
Times-Washington Post Wire
Service.
Initall y, we felt that many
students on this campus were
neglecting to pick up other papers
outside of the campus , and were
thus lacking in their knowledge
of national news.
We felt , then , that it would be
a good service to the students to
provide coverage of a few of the
major national and international
stories of the day to keep them
informed.
However, the majority reaction
we got was that we were rely ing
too heavil y on the wire - in effect
using it as a crutch.
So, we have continuall y strived to cut down on wire service to
no more than two or three major
stories per issue .'and get back to
more campus coverage. The
move has been thus far well
received.
Therefore , it is with these factors in mind that I , as Editor of
The Voice, have decided to give
Mr. Keffer the opportunity to
submit brief candidate previews
for publication , but I can no
longer justify giving CGA elections the prominence they have
received in past years.

CGA debate mystifying
by Joe Denelsbeck
CGA columnist

As I sat in what the CGA called a debate. I was mystified . To
this day. 1 am still amazed that
onl y 30 people will show up to
hear their future CGA President
speak on (he issues.
But. hey. if I was president , I
would love to preside over 6 ,400
students who let me do what ever
the heck I want to with their S90.
Now lets turn to [he debate.
Moth candidates looked just so
i m p r e s s i v e in t h e i r s u i t s .
However, they were not very impressive as far as knowled ge was

concerned.
The response "I' m not
prepared to answer that " was said
four times. I found that answer
more palatable , however , than an
answer that was read off a piece
of paper because the candidate
had known that the questions
were coming.
Of course, even the well
thoug ht out answers prepared by
Mr. Gobora were not trul y
answers to the questions that were
posed. Those questions included
parking , racism , study space , the
Greek system , and the Commons.
Once again , none of the questions were answered. But , hey,

that 's politics.
The hi ghli ght of the evening
was the debate that took place
between Voice reporter Mike
Mullen and CGA President Tim
Keffer. I don 't think this was
necessary or proper %
The objective of the debate was
to hear what the candidates had
to say , not what the present administration thinks.
This may seem harsh. It is. I
was very upset at the answers that
both candidates gave.
What I want you to do is to approach both Mr. Gobora and Mr.
Anthony and ask them questions.
See what vou think , then VOTE!

Research a writing tool

This editorial is in response for
articles by Mr. Sauter (2/3) and
Mr. Mullen (2/5).
Mr. Sauter. in your article you
claim that baseball' s free agency
had to be ended or curtailed. Jack
Morris, major league pitcher , invested his time and money to
develop his special skill (at college you are attempting to
develop your skill.)
If Morris can verify the number
of people who will pay for his
skills (attendance figures) and/or
statistically show his net worth to
the team 's success , he deserves
the proper pay for his real worth .
Morris has been unable to get
what he feels he is worth. It is not
because free agency had to stop!
Morris ' bargaining power
depends on his alternatives. The
collusion of baseball's owners
have eliminated these alternatives. Baseball , instituted a
"reserve clause " in 1979 to avoid
competitive wage battles.
In
other word s, the baseball owners
created a legal "monopsony " and
indentured the players to their
employers.
The free agency was suppose
to end this clause , but apparently it has not happened. The
owners are taking advantage of
drawing
power
players '
(economic rent) by suppressing
wage competition.
If competitive wages existed ,
and provided that Morris ' labor
increased his team's inc6me flow ,
Morris would get what he
deserves.
Increases in baseball salaries
have lagged behind those of other
recreation industries. From 1883
to 1950, the gross receipts of

baseball owners (clubs) rose 80
times the initial level. Salaries of
players rose only 7 times.
Free agency allowed competitive wages to exist and
salaries caught up. Now the competitive wage "battle " has caused wage collusion to reappear.
This is why Morris has been
unable to get his net worth .
Mr. Sauter , baseball is a
business as well as a game . If you
look at it from this context ,
maybe you really will be able to
"imagine" what Morris is going
throug h.
Mr. Mullen your article does
no service to anyone. Our society does put sports figures on
pedestals. I am not saying this is
ri ght or wrong. I just wish to remind you that they are human just
like us.
The 1980's have had drug prothe
1950' s
blems ,
had
alcoholism , the 1920' s, gamefixing. All are still with us in
some form or another. Just as
they are subject to vices , so are
we.
Where are the heroes? They
are still among us! Unfortunately we have forgotten where and
what to look for in one. They are
not on the sports page (that is no
criteria.)
My grandfather recently passed away . I not only loved him but
I respected him as well. He was
an honest , caring, person. I admired him because he has faith in
his fellow man (which sometimes
I lack considerably.)
The people who attended his
funeral , came to say good-bye.
They did not say good-bye to the
old man , they said good-bye to

the good man.
So look again , Mr. Mullen.
Mr. Sauter and Mr. Mullen ,
you both have to realize that you
have a powerful tool in the
printed word . But you both must
take the time to make sure that
what you write informs us , not
misinforms us.

Perie truly indispensibie
by George Will
Editorial Columnist

It is said that di plomacy consists of say ing "nice doggie "
while reaching for a rock.
Recently in Munich , Richard
Perle , assistant secretary of
defense , abandoned di plomacy,
as usuall y understood , and pelted
NATO 's member governments
with heavy rocks. For that
flagrant violation of decorum
Perle
should
be
summarily.. .decorated.
Perle informed the allies that
their shortcomings include an addiction to "mealymouthed" pronouncements symptomatic of
political cowardice. He also said
they are guilty of a "failure of
forthri ghtness ," sotto voce murmurings that pass for alliance
statements, " fostering a climate
in which "realism is subordinated
to hope and policy is shaped by
"halting
fear , "
using
euphemisms " regarding Soviet
noncompliance with agreements ,
cowering .''behindhand and oblique formulations so as not to offend the sensitivities of our
enemies or the prevailing wisdom
of our editorial writers ," conducting a "charade " that permits
Soviet propaganda to succeed ,
"patronizing Western publics ,"
"misty
blanissuing
dishments.... "
Perle began by illustrating the
alliance 's impules "to paper over
differences , avoid controversy ,
placate public opinion and round
all corners and smooth all sharp
edges as though we were designing a stealth airplane rather that
declaring our most fundamental
convictions. " Recently the
United States proposed that
NATO say Gorbachev would
forfeit his credibility if , having
promised otherwise, he continued
to hold an agreement on
intermediate-range missiles
hostage to an agreement on
strategic defense. Another NATO
nation 's representative said:
"You can 't say that. "

Perle: "Why not?"
Other fellow: "It just isn 't
done. You don 't say in a NATO
communique that Gorbachev has
lied. "
The communique became a
flavorless--and
untruthful—puddin g .
NATO has responded cravenly, Perle says, to the Soviet call
for an end to all nuclear testing .
Without testing, confidence in the
nuclear inventory would decline,
and there would be no more of
the modernization that has reduced the number and y ield of
weapons in the stock pile.
However, rather than explain the
need for testing, NATO governments have "hidden behind" the
peripheral issue of ratification,
refusing to argue what they
privatel y acknowled ge: the
necessity for and benefits of
testing .
Or consider , says Perle ,
NATO' s lame response to the
Soviet call for a total ban on
chemical weapons . The Soviets
possess them in quantity , have
specialized military academies for
the study of their use , train for
their use , and equip their troops
to fi ght in the midst of such
weapons. Most NATO nations
have no such weapons. The
United States has not produced a
new or modernized chemical
weapon in 18 years. Production
has been delayed as Congress
hopes for an arms-control agreement that would obviate NATO's
need for chemical weapons.
But NATO s emphasis on
verification of a chemicalweapons ban is a dodge. Says
Perle, "The unhappy fact is that
ordinary chemical plants could be
converted for the production of
lethal agents in a matter of
weeks," given advance planning .
Such planning would , of course,
be undetectable. No NATO nation could make even precautionary production plans after
signing a ban on chemical
weapons. Yet NATO govern ments do not put before their

publics the hard facts about
chemical weapons , or about
Soviet cheating on agreements .
NATO speaks of "serious concerns , " but Perle says:
"Nowhere have I been able to
find a statement deploring the fact
that the Soviets have been
cheating. It is as though the words
'violation ' and 'cheating ' cannot
be said in well-mannered company ." NATO governments find
it easier to distance themselves
from U.S. responses to Soviet
cheating (such as abandonment of
SALT II limits) than to condemn
the cheating . Thus NATO
governments
make
U.S.
responses seem capricious.
Perle 's most scathing remarks
were reserved for the "absurd ,"
"idle " and "dangerous " talk
about a nuclear-free world—the
sort of talk President Reagan has
engaged in at the Iceland summit
and elsewhere.
Perle says, "The verification of
an agreement to abolish all
nuclear weapons is not difficult ,
or very difficult: It is impossible. " So, "What Western leader
would turn in his country 's last
remaining nuclear weapon on the
strenght of assurances—mere
words-that the Soviets had done
the same?" As Western governments tacitl y accept the idea of a
nuclearp-free world , the weapons
on which deterrence must rest are
steadily stigmatized.
NATO representatives at the
Munich meeting were indignant
that Perle had injected a forei gn
substance—truth—into the proceedings. The White House rushed to say that Perle was not
speaking for the President-which
fact Perle had emphasized in
Munich .
Perle may soon leave the administration, thereby reducing by
about 85 percent the administration 's tang and wisdom regarding
arms control . Perle is undisciplined, opinionated , eloquent , principled , disdainful of decorum-all
the things governments find indi gestible and this Republic
should consider indispensable.

Granting immunity detrimental
THE TOWER COMMISSION
is winding up its investigation of
the National Security Council's
role in the Iran-contra affair and
is expected to issue a final report
in about two weeks. The other
th ree investigative groups-the independent counsel's office and
the special committees in the
House and Senate 'are still in the
process of establishing ground
rules and gathering evidence.
Each of these panels has a far
more complicated task than the
Tower Commission, and there is
certain to be a lot of overlapp ing
in their work during the coming
months, and possible a little conflict among them as well.
Both committees have broad
mandates to discover exactly
what happened-what deals were
made , what money changed
hands, what promises were given
and broken. Sen. Daniel Inouye
and Rep. Lee Hamilton , who
chair these committees, have
already stated that they will
cooperate in the scheduling of
hearings-which are expected to

begin next month-the examination
of witnesses and the use of
documents. There is even a
possibility that they will divide
their work systematically and
hold some joint hearings. All this
sounds good not only because
cooperation will expedite the investigations but also because it
will diminish the tendency , as
Sen. Inouye suggests, to compete
for headlines.
Independent counsel Lawrence
Walsh has a different mandate
and a duty to avoid headlines
while his work is in progress. He
must determine not whether a
policy has been wrong , but
whether a crime has been committed . He will be working in
secret , and while he looks to the
congressional comittees to share
their information with him , there
will be some material-grand jury
testimony, for example-that he
will not be able to share with
them.
There is one potential source of
conflict between the committees
and the special counsel , and it

ought to be worked out right now.
Because legislators want to get information as quickly as possible ,
and because criminal prosecu-

tions are of secondary importance
to them, they are under pressure
to grant limited immunity to

Lack of communication creates
some political ambiguities
by Scott' Davis
News Editor

We live in a world of political
ambi guities. Nobody seems to
have the capablity to determine
what is important and what is
unimportant when dealing with
our United States Government.
One paper , The Washington
Post, reported on the death of a
public government personality in
the news section of their paper.
This sounds fine until you find
out that the public government
personality was Vice President
Bush' s 13-year-old cocker spaniel
C. Fred Bush.
The story started off with the
phrase "On a sad note." Granted
it was sad that our vice president 's family pet died , but it was
not very important to the citizens.
What should be important ' 'on
a sad note " is the fact that men ,
women , and children are being
killed every day in wars all across
the globe.
When it comes to terrorism , the
United States has found itself in
a tight spot. We blame the
damage the Iran-Contra Affair
dealt to our government on our
government. We say we should
let it get behind us and see it
never happens again , yet we still
see the subject in the headlines of
newspapers and in the mouths of
television reporters every day.

This insistence to keep the IranContra Affair alive has delivered
more ambiguity to us than to any
other country . We the people do
not know what our government's
stand on terrorism is. We think
we know what it should be, but
we do not know what it is.
This problem of ambiguity
does not end on the Federal level.
It (ambiguity) is also a relevant ,
as well as extensive , problem on
our campus level.
The Community Government
Association
(CGA)
is
Bloomsburg University 's Student
Government. They are the bridge
between the students and the administration at BU , but it seems
that this brid ge is made of rope
that is rotting and weakening.
Most of the students , CGA's
constituents , do not know who
their CGA representatives are . I
do not blame CGA , totally, for
this. The students are as much to
blame because they do not ask.
They do not even vote. Why
don 't they vote?
Because they (BU students)
either do not care or they are ambiguis. They really do not know
what CGA stands for or what
their policies are .
If students did understand
CGA's policies (which is CGA ,
as well as, the students reponsibility to make clear) , there
would be more than 13.4 percent

of the students voting. This is a
fact , because if the students
understood the policies, they
could vote for the candidate who
supports or challenges the present
policies.
On the opposite side of the
scale, there is World politics.
This ambiguity rests on all the
Governments of the world . From
the Soviet Union to the United
States; From Central America to
Vatican City, no one government
understands another and no one
government understands itself .
It is the case of the right hand
not knowing what the left hand is
doing. A perfect example deals
with disarmament talks between
the United States and the Soviet
Union. Neither side will agree to
cut nuclear weapon production.
This is because if one side cuts
production , they do not trust the
other side to do the same. If the
countries understood the nuclear
policies of other countries , they
would have a better chance of
knowing who to trust and who not
to trust.
Ambiguity is the underlying
factor for much of the world's
problems. If more people would
get involved and try and understand , less problems and unnecessary suffering would occur.
So, why not start now by voting
for your favorite candidate in the
upcoming CGA elections?

Product testing causes torture
by Karen Reiss
News Editor

are killed and disposed of.
You may be thinking to
yourself while reading this ,
"Well , that sounds really terrible,
but it 's better for a rodent to get
those kinds of reactions than for
me to. " This is partially true; no
one should be put throug h this
kind of torture, not human or
animal.
Many scientists claim the tests
are absolutel y necessary ,
however, in the past several
years, the necessity of the painful waste of life has been questioned. Some new (and not so
new) developments show that using live animals in lab tests can
be greatly reduced if not
eliminated completely. One such
development uses cell cultures of
animals grown in laboratories to
do certain tests usually done on
living creatures.
Ms. Fain witnessed more than
just inhumane tests in the Gillette
lab , she also witnessed inhumane
people. She told of two technicians who complained that the
tests they were getting lately were
"boring ." They wanted
something more exciting like carbolic acid. They did have reason
to complain , but it should not
have been of boredom. Their
complaints should have stemmed
from the fact that bodies of halfdead, mangled animals surrounded them.
Maybe the reason some scientists are resisting new methods of
chemical testing is because they
feel superior to the lower life
forms that they torture . Maybe
they do find it "exciting " to see

rabbits struggle in pain . I happen
to find this repulsive.

Liberace, the pianist who earned the title of "Mr. Showmanship " by dazzling audiences with
his flashy costumes, witty personality , and romantic piano
play ing, died last Wednesday at
the age of 67.
According to the February 5
issue of The Patriot , rumors of
his illness started last fall. But
Liberace had been sick for weeks
with what aides said was anemia,
emphysema , and heart disease.
Last Monday friends and
relatives gathered at his home and
that Tuesday he lapsed into a
coma.
Liberace, who never married ,
left all of his money to his foundation and stated prior to his
death that , "I feel my name will
perpetrate my foundation. "

Students state attitudes on Baby M
by Kathi Richards
for the Voice

Karen Bowers, a member of the winning Air Band 'Vixen' shows her
stuff at Friday 's competition. (Voice photo by Robert Finch)

Dr. Huber 's Marriage and the
Famil y classes recently interviewed 733 BU students , faculty . and friends regarding the New
Jersey surrogate mother case involvin g "Baby M" . The results
are stated below.
1. Have you heard about the case
in New Jersey where a woman
signed a contract to bear a child
for another couple by being artific ially inseminated by the contracting father because his wife
has MS?
Of those polled , seventy-five percent indicated that they were
familiar with this case.
2. In this case , where both
families are now considered to be
good parents , the surrogate
mother now -wants to keep the

child as part of her own family .
Who do you think should gain
custody of the child?
a. The natural (surrogate)
mother
b. The couple who paid for the
baby
c. Don 't know
Twenty-three percent of both the
males and females interviewed
felt that the natural mother should
gain custod y of the child.
Seventy-three percent of the total
questioned believed that the paying couple should have the right
to the child. Lastly, only four percent didn 't know who should
have custody because of either
lack of knowledge of this case or
the circumstances pending in this
case.
3. Do you approve or disapprove
of a surrogate mother in the
following situations:

a. If the wife is unable to bear
a child
b. If pregnancy is a si gnificant
risk to the wife's health
c. If the wife is afraid to bear
a child
Eighty-two percent of the 733 interviewed felt that a surrogate
mother was acceptable in the first
instance. Regarding the second
part , seventy-five percent of the
females and seventy-eight percent
of the males approved. People
were less receptive to allowing a
couple to use a surrogate when
the mother is afraid to bear a
child. A mere fourteen percent of
all females and seventeen percent
of all males felt that a surrogate
was acceptable in this case.
4. If you wanted a child but could
not have one because of fertility
or other medical problems , would
you consider having a child

through a surrogate?
This question yielded fifty fifty
answers. Fifty percent of all
females stated that they would
consider using a surrogate . On
behalf of the males, forty-three
percent felt that they would consider using a surrogate.
5. Surrogate mothers are paid
$10,000 to bear a child for
another couple. If you were a
woman in good health , would you
consider bearing another couple 's
child?
This question was originally
pointed towards women only.
Nineteen percent of all females
surveyed stated that they would
consider being a surrogate
mother , especially if it were for
a close family friend. Of the
eighty-one males that responded
to this question , fifteen percent
agreed to allow their wife to consider being a surrogate .

make a film.
Entreaties by Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Beyers Naude,
Secretary-General of South
African Council of churches ,
convinced Ms. Sopher to defy the
State of Emergency and film. As
she says, "Their appeals were
reinforced by my own realization
that in sp ite of the presence of
nearly 200 journalists in South
Africa , the torchure of children
was a story that was not being
told ."
"Witness to Apartheid"
received one of the largest audience responses a documentary
has ever received when it
premiered on British television in
mid-April 1986, and resulted in
an admission by the South
African Ambassador to Great
Britian that "children , especially, are being torchured. "
Anthony Lewis of The New
York Times stated ,"My words
cannot reproduce what one sees
in 'Witness to Apartheid. ' It is a
brave and powerful piece of jour nalism. Here is a boy, after detention , with a soft skull. Another ,
evidently suffering brain damage,
can hardly move his tongue. To
see these things is to know why
South African blacks cannot be
content , now , with piecemeal
reform ."

Off the bench
Thirteen years from now?
by Dave Sauter
Sports Editor

Hello again , folks. As many of
you may recall , my last column
was one of a nostalgic nature as
I recapped some of the more
memorable sports happenings of
1986.
Now , with some of these past
events fresh in your mind , I
figured I would try something
new .
Here are some of my predictions of what will happen in
sports in the year 2000. Just
remember though , when these
events come true... you heard it
here first.
In January of the year 2000,
Southwest Missouri State, a national college football power, will
win their third consecutive national championship as they
defeat Joe Paterno , Jr. and his
Penn State crew in the Fiesta
Bowl , 35-3.
Also in January , in Super Bowl
XXXIV , America's team , the Indianapolis Colts will face the
Dallas Cowboys in Pasadena.
With the score tied 0-0, on the
final play of the game, Colts'
quarterback Jay DeDea's pass
will be intercepted by Dallas, only to have it run back the wrong
way for a safety and a 2-0 win for
Indianapolis.
On March 25, during spring
training in baseball , Billy Martin
will be hired by George Steinbrenner , Jr. to manage the
Yankees for the eighth time of his
career. Both claim that their problems of the past are forgotten

and Billy will have free run of the
team.
In April , the New Jersey Devils
will face the Edmonton Oilers in
the Stanley Cup finals. The
Oilers, who have won eight in a
row , will lose their dyansty in the
seventh game when their veteran
defenseman , Steve Smith , will
accidently hit the puck into his
own goal giving the Devils a 3-2
victory .
In addition to the Stanley Cup
in April , the NCAA tournament
will take place. Leading his team
into the finals will be the ageless
Dean Smith and the Tar Heels of
UNC. Their opponent will be St.
Leopold' s School for the Blind.
In a wild game, the Tar Heels will
win a hard-fought 80-79 victory
thanks to a last second three-point
shot. All points scored by St.
Leo's will come as a result of
UNC players shooting at the
wrong basket.
Going into May , the NBA
finals will roll around. For the
first time in years , the Sixers will
not have made the playoffs , hav ing finished in last place 38 games
behind the Celtics.
Boston will be facing the
Lakers , and in the seventh game,
Kareem Abdul Jabbar , now in his
mid-fifties, will put in a hook shot
with one second left to win it for
LA in seven games. The Most
Valuable Player award for the
series will be presented to Lakers'
guard , Alex Nelcha , who averaged 34 points and 12 rebounds per
game.
In June , with the Yankees
mired in last place 19 games
behind Cleveland , Billy Martin

will be fired again.
At the All-Star game in Jul y,
in a surprise announcement ,
Steinbrenner , Jr. will claim that
all past problems are forgotten
and Mart;n will return to manage
the Yankees in the year 2001 (a
baseball odyssey).
In August, the Mets will clinch
the National League East division
title thanks to the strong p itching
of grizzled veteran Fernando
Valenzuela , who was acquired in
a trade with the Dodgers for
Dwight Gooden in the spring of
1987.
The World Series in October
will pit Cleveland against the
Mets. The Indians , behind the hitting of ex-Met Darry l Strawberry
and the pitching of 59-year old
Phil Kniekro will upend New
York in four straight games. The
next year will find the collapse of
the Mets as they finish in last
p lace and the Pirates win it all .
Fianlly, as the bowl season apin
proaches once again
December, top-ranked Oklahoma
will get set to face the surprise
number two team in the nation ,
Bloomsburg, in the Orange Bowl.
According to Husky coach , Pete
Adrian , he is happy to be the
underdog because that takes all of
the pressure off of BU.
I just want to make one final
note before allowing you to return
to reality .
If any one of these predictions
should happen to come true ,
please let me know. You can contact me at Hess's on Main Street
in Bloomsburg .
So until I hear from you in thir
teen years , have a beer on me

The wait was long and it was
hot in the hallway . The enviable
refreshing sounds of splashing
water could be heard from the
next room when a rustling noise
came from the door.

Inside his office, a Vincent Van
Gogh calendar could be prominentl y seen. An intense , swirl ing sky full of agony contrast was
the painting for February . By
contrast , Coach Rider is
unassuming and soft-spoken. As
first impressions go , he seems
like a pretty nice guy.

It was Dave Rider , coach of
Bloomsburg University 's men 's
and women 's swim teams.
He looked surprised. "Why do
you want to interview me?"
Well , to find out what the man

He tries to show his Learn s

Sitting at his desk , he recalled
how he got into coaching. "I
swam in college and later joined
the Peace Corps. A year and a
half later , I was working for an
agricultural extension agency
overseas. "
At that point , the organization
was asked to provide a coach for
a swimming and basketball team ,
as well as teaching basketball. "I
did try it and liked it. "

Rider 's swimmers think hi ghl y ol '
him. Sophomore Karla Malinak .
who competes in long distance
and freestyle events , was resum:
by the side of the poo!. The
gigantic room was filled with the

water.

Now , at Bloomsburg si Coach
Rider estimates he spends at least
25 hours a week at his job ,
dividing his time between going
to practices , preparing his swimmers for competition , and going
to meets.

She had this to say about her
coach. "As a coach he ' s tough
but good . As a person , he ' s
understanding and carina
if
we ' re not feeling up to practice
or have persona) problems , he
hel ps us out. He 's like a lathe ; . ''
Coach Rider and his "fi'.mliy "
look like they have a great fi together.

The most important differences
between Bloomsburg University 's swim teams and those of
other schools , Rider believes , is
that "our academic reputation attracts swimmers ."

FTL: Unfortunately , preg ameprayer may not have one

by Mike Mullen
Sports Editor

-v

Tradition has long been the standard in sports . Football has its Rose
Bowl , baseball has its stockinged uniforms and Douglasville has its
pregame prayer. However , time honored traditions have not been
taken too kindl y as of late . It is my sad duty to report to you that
the nearl y 70 year old ritual of having a prayer before every home
game in Douglasville , Georgia , has come to an end.
My brief and varied attempts at athletics in hi gh school saw me
play under 10 different coaches. Not all , but half of which offered
a prayer of some type in the locker room before the game. I never
had any problems with it , and actuall y said my own personal prayer
if the coach didn 't offer a team prayer. In my four years I never heard
one complaint of the procedure and most guys who didn 't agree with
the prayer simply bowed their heads out of simple respect for what
we were try ing to do.
The feeling that we tried to create was a feeling of comradery .
None of my non-reli gious friends felt pressured into pray ing along
with us , nor did they receive ridicule for their non-belief. These guys

were our friends and they respected our decision to pray and we
respected their decision not to pray .
Unfortuantely for Douglasville, and soon maybe others , a certain
young man took offense to this tradition and decided to make a federal
court case out of it , literall y. Douglas Jager , an 18-year old senior
at Dougfas County High School, protested the act of having a pregame
prayer broadcast over the public address system to the crowd . He
claimed , and rightly so, that the way it was presented was a violation of the First Amendment ban on government sponsorshi p of
religion.
My complaint does not lie in the fact that he wished the end of
the broadcast of the prayer , it lies in the way he insulted the surrounding community as he pursued his case. "The prayers really
irritate me ," he said , "I'm basicall y agnostic , a humanist. I've got
nothing against people who want to pray at the games. I just think
they should do it on their own. "
The reaction this prompted was unfounded and undeserved for that
statement. It seems that Jager had his tires slashed and one lady called her minister to comp lain and said ,"I believe in prayer , but I think

someone ought to beat him up. " Granted these actions were unwarranted but it was done by a minority of a population of over seven
thousand.
It was then that Jager made the statement mat lost what little support he had from me. "I knew I was going to get a lot of flak over
this ," the Denver native who moved to Doug lasville in 1976 said ,
"I' ve been living with these people for the last ten years ."
What people? Religious people? I could understand his agitation
over being forced to listen to prayers over a P. A. system, but when
his fi ght diminishes to a personal insult flung at the towns people
it takes on a different light. Although a personal advocate of pregame
prayer , as well as handshakes and introductions , I was sympathetic
to his ideas , until , of course, he became unsympathetic to ours.
Mr. Jager , please understand that we say that prayer to signify
our unity as a team and nothing more. We do not do it for the soul
(misspelled purposely) purpose of aggravating you and those who
agree with you. We only wish you had the respect for us that our
constitution has for you.
Finall y I would like to conclude by say ing, Our Father who art
in Heaven

Williams nets 19 in upset win
by Lincoln Weiss
Sin IT Wrtk- r

If you weren ' t there , boy did
you miss it. The Bloomsburg
University Huskies won an exciting (what an understatement!)
and crucial game by upsetting nationall y ranked Millersville ,
60-55
The win doesn ' t mean much in
the way of first p lace however ,
as Millersville had that wrapped
up a while ago.
Still it meant everything for the
Huskies who are now 7-3 in the
PSAC Eastern Division and currentl y hold on to second place.
The win may have also left a
calling card for Millersville who
the Huskies may meet again , provided Bloomsburg remains in (lie
lop three in the division to qualif y
for post-season play.
The game , althoug h full of
drama and excitement , was not
full of good basketball. Both
teams started the game off by
missing shot after shot , the first
basket not coming untilafter one
minute and 5) seconds ran off the
clock.
It was then that BU s Johnny
Williams put on a shooting
demonstration , scoring 10 points
in less than four minutes, helping Bloom build an early 16-6
lead.
The usuall y sure-shooting
Marauders continued w ith its version of how to lay bricks as the
Husk y 's
Dave
Carpenter
dominated the offensive and
d e f e n s i v e boards , staking
Bloomsburg to a 32-27 halftime
lead.
Millersville stormed back in the
second half after causing some
key turnovers. The Marauders
took their first lead of the game
at 42-40 with 11:37 left in the

game.
. MU was unable to pull away
fro m the Huskies due mostly to
their poor shooting.
The game then turned into a
foul shooting contest as both
teams were in the penalty with
just over nine minutes to go in the
game .
Then at the 3:30 mark ,
Millersville 's Troy Daniel missed the front end of a one and one
and Bloomsburg scored to lake
the lead back , 51-49.
The Marauders had a chance to
tie on free throws by John Fox ,
but he only made one and BU led
53-52 with 2:08 to go.
Millersville then resorted to
fouling, but the Huskies would
not miss as they converted six
free throws in a row to take a
58-52 advantage.
Give the Marauders credit as
they refused to die . Andrew Marshall nailed a three-point shot to
cut the husky lead in half , 58-55,
with only 21 seconds left .
At this point , Bloomsburg
wisely called a time-out to set up
a play for the impending
Millersville press that they knew
would be forthcoming. .
The Huskies beat the press and
held the ball until John Williams
managed
to
break
free
downcourt. A long pass to him
was complete and he completed
the scoring with a resounding
slam dunk , bringing the crowd to
its feet screaming and yelling
with joy .
With the upcoming game at
Mansfield this Wednesday ,
Bloomsburg coach Charlie
Chronister was asked if he expected a let down. He responded , "I don 't think about that too
much...we try not to get too or
too low . ..maybe we're too young
to know when we're good or

bad. "
The Huskies shot a poor 35 per
cent from the field , but
Millersville still managed to grab
to honors in the bricklay ing contest by shooting a paltry 29.2 per
cent.
John Williams of Bloomsburg
led all scorers in the game totalling 19 points. Dave Carpenter
chi pped in 10 points and 16
rebounds.
John Fox and Troy Daniel paced the Marauders with 12 and 10
points respectively.

Women rebound against MU
by Mike Mullen
Sports Editor

Carla Shearer scored a career
hi gh 24 points and Theresa
Lorenzi netted 30 as the
Bloomsburg University Women
Huskies
downed
visiting
Millersville 66-56.
The game opened up with both
teams pressing and both teams
forced quite a number of
turnovers .
Millersville 's 1-2-1-1 press
caused numerous problems for
BU , as they had a difficult time
getting the ball upcourt and many
times took a bad shot as the shot
clock wound down on them.
Still the Huskies were able to
stake themselves to a 30-25 lead
at the half , mostly due to Lorenzi 's 18 points. Lorenzi connected
on 9-12 shots in the opening half.
After trading baskets to open
the second half , the Huskies went
on a 10-4 run to establish their
biggest lead of the game at ' 12,
46-34, with 13:30 left in the
game.
From there the Huskies never
looked back. The Marauders tried
in vain to cut into the Husky lead
but nver got any closer than six ,

finally succuming to Bloomsburg ,
66-56.
Lorenzi led all scorers and was
followed by Shearer. No other
BU p layer hit double figures.
The Marauders spread their
scoring around as they saw four
players in double digits.
Peg Kauffman led the
Marauders with 12 before she
fouled out. Karen Armold , Sue
Heckler and Kathleen Howell all
had ten , while the PSAC leader
in field-goal percentage, Missy
Brubaker , canned 4-7 shots for
eight points.
Bloomsburg now moves to
16-5 overall , 8-2 in the PSAC
East , while Millersville drops to
12-6, 6-3 in the PSAC East.
The women now prepare for
Mansfield this Wednesday at
Mansfield.

SCOOPS...Carla
HOOP
Shearer shot 60 percent (9-15)
and 85 percent from the foul line
on the way to her career high 24
points . She . handed out five
assists, landed seven rebounds
and had one steal...Amy Wolf ,
who just broke her own record
for blocked shots in a season , had
another one of those nights. She

scored six points , garnered a
game hi gh 12 rebounds , rejected
two shots, handed out an assist
and claimed five steals. She is
scheduled to sing the Natonal Anthem at the next home
game...Theresa Loenzi , still the
Division II leader in scoring
helped out her average with a 30
point night. She also was second
on the team in rebounds with 11.
When she wasn't busy she blocked two shots and had two
assists...Linda King, who has
been quiet in the scoring circles
as of late , was second last night
in assists with 3...Incredibly
enough , the Huskies didn 't take
one foul shot in the first half , but
hit 12-16 in the second half...

The Mountaineers of West
Virginia University visited
Bloomsburg on Saturday afternoon , but were treated rudely as
they absorbed a 19-15 loss.
The nineteenth-ranked Mountaineer squad arrived riding a four
match winning streak and a team
title in the Hoosier Invitational
hosted by Indiana University and
sporting a 7-3 record .

The Huskies were looking to
improve on their Eastern Wrestling League mark of 1-1, and improve they did.
Bloomsburg came out storming, dominating the first th ree
matches to gain an 11-0 lead .
West Virginia held tough ,
though , coming back to make the
score 11-7. After the Huskies
won the next match at 158, the
Mountaineers made their final
charge pulling to within one,
14-13.

But the Huskies were not to be
denied.
With a 17-13 lead going into
the final bout , the match was still
up for grabs. But Jack Yocum
came through for Bloomsburg
drawing with Jeff Spinetti to
round out the scoring in the
Huskies' favor , 19-15.
With the win , BU' s record improved to 9-5 overall , and a conference mark of 2-1. They face
the Bald Eagles of Lock Haven
