Low student attendance forces classroom policy
by Diana VanFleet
Staff Writer

In recent weeks, student attendance on Fridays has dropped
noticeabl y. Faculty and administration are expressing real
concern about the attitudes of
those students who choose to extend their weekends.
"I think the weekend should
start on Friday . We should have
classes Monday throug h Thursday ," said Larry Walsh , a junior
advertising major.
Darrin Love , a j u n i o r
marketing major , said he usually goes to his classes on Fridays
because they are early. "I think
they should go to a Monday ,
Wednesday schedule for afternoon classes ," he added.
"This school is getting to be a
suitcase school ," said Barb VanBuskirk , a sophomore mass communications major. VanBuskirk
added , "Sometimes the only way
to get home is to get a ride with
someone, and if they 're leaving

early you have to leave too. "
Students involved in sorority
activities , like Lori Weber , a
sophomore business major, stay
at the sorority house because
"there is always something going on there over the weekend ."
Another view was offered by
Frank Johns, a freshman political
science major. "I go to classes
for two reasons: I paid for them
so I want to be there , and I don 't
want to miss anything important.
I' ve crawled into an early math
class just so I won 't get behind ."
The undergraduate catalogue
states, "Regular attendance is expected of all students ," and lists
legitimate excuses as: personal illness , death or critical illness in
the immediate family and partici pation in a universitysponsored co-curricular activity .
Faculty members may adopt
their own attendance policies ,
which must be provided to
students during the first week of
classes .
It is not known how many

faculty have separate policies, but
what is apparent is that , in many
departments, the number of Friday absences is being noticed and
is causing some faculty
complaints.
Despite announcements well in
advance, only half of the class attended a guest lecture in a recent
Friday Introduction to Literature
class taught by Dr. Lawrence B.
Fuller. "Lower level courses
seem to have a more serious
absentee rate ," said Fuller. He
said that students in upper level
courses have better attendance
and provide leg itimate excuses
for missing classes .
"The Friday before Spring
Break had really poor attendance .
It seems that the only way to get
people to stay is to g ive an exam
that day ," Fuller said. Fuller added that students need to understand is that "you hurt yourself ,
and if you are working in groups ,
you hurt each other. "
Dr. Gunther Lange , associate
professor of physics , feels that

attendance shouldn 't necessarily
be part of the grading process. "
However , he has begun taking attendance in his 2 p.m. basic
physical science class on Fridays.
He has told students that he will
consider regular attendance when
he submits final grades. Lange
added that attendance is especiall y affected in courses like basic
ph ysical science which many
students take on a pass/fail basis.
Of poor attendance , Lange
said , "It deteriora tes from the
class as a whole when students
miss and then need to catch up. "
Faculty and administration are
increasing ly bothered by what
they see as a problem of attitude.
Dr. Mary Kenny Badami ,
associate professor of communication studies , has an official
attendance policy for her communication theory classes which
meet three times a week.
The sy llabus states , "Your
grade will be lowered if you are
absent/unexcused more than five
class meetings d u r i n g the

semester. " Despite this official
and relatively liberal policy ,
Badami has had to warn students
that the policy will be enforced.
She noted that , although test
grades had generally been good ,
the final grades will not reflect
this for students who have over
five unexcused absences . "Many
students here at Bloomsburg
University lack the kind of commitment that is necessary, and the
result is poor attendance , "
Badami said.
Recognition and concern have
reached the highest levels of the
university hierarchy. According
to Dr. Daniel Pantaleo , provost
and vice president for academic
affairs, some of the goals identified in the ongoing strategic
p lanning process address the issue
of the "academic climate " which
is affected by student class
attendance.
Under the five-year plan , the
university will seek to improve
the academic climate on campus
and to involve students in

weekend activities including
social , academic and cultural
events.
Pantaleo does not favor mandating attendance. "It is important for the faculty to write their
own attendance policies, " he
said. What is needed , according
to Pantaleo , is an academic environment that involves students
in the whole college experience
"so students don 't bail out on
Thursday afternoons. "
."Even when there is really
stimulating instruction and really stimulating information being
offered , we often find a lack of
motivation , " Pantaleo said .
Many students seem more concerned with a letter grade and getting a job than in "the pursuit of
of
academic
attainment ,
knowledge and information. "
We would hope that the
strategic planning process will be
able to do something about the
academic climate and encourage
and motivate students to attend
classes ," he said.

Technology hurts students
Mass
communications
technology is now changing
rapidly and diversif ying so quickly that much of its marketplace is
unable to keep up with new applications and uses.
Sales growth has tapered off in
the last year, partly because of a
flattening out of profits of many
corporations , but also because
many specialists are undecided
which way the market is going
and which types of equipment are
the most suitable mixes for their
needs.
Chairman of the Department of
Mass Communications, John
Maittlen-Harris , said these were
the two main impressions he had
from a six-day visit to Dallas to
attend the annual conference of
the Broadcast Educators Association and the annual convention
and display of the National
Association of Broadcasters , one
of the largest industry associations in the country.
More than 40,000 delegates
and 700 exhibitors attended the
convention.
Costs of a wide range of new
equipment now begin in the six
figures and escalate rapidly with
just a few add ons or specialized
pieces of equipment that might be
needed for more specific uses,
Maittlen-Harris added.
He attended the two "conferences with Telecommunications Professor Dr. Dana Ulloth.
He filled in at the last moment for
RTF Professor Bill Acierno, who
was admitted to Geisinger
Hospital for a number of tests the
day he was due to fly to Dallas.
"What I heard and saw in
Dallas has convinced me that it
is now almost impossible to sort
out the best combination of

technology and uses that best suits
requirements , "
anybody 's
Maittlen-Harris said.
"The usual process has been to
take a year or so to look at
available equipment , work out
what was the best combination for
your own specific needs and then
get budget aapprovals for the final
package.
"Now it is almost inevitable
that not only will budget levels
have moved significantly during
the next year or two but that new
equipment is hitting the market
place so rapidly that plans drawn
up a year or so ago are probably
already obsolete.
"In other words the major
decision is probably not what
package
you
can
most
economically put together for student and faculty use but just when
you should jump into the water
to beg in your use of the
technology .
"Whichever way we go will
need serious revision within a
year or so at the most.
' 'The next six months indicate
that there will be a major change
in much of the equipment currently available. IBM is unveiling a
new range of portable computer
equipment this week and it has
been obvious for several months
that major readjustments will
begin to hit the market after
everyone has learned what IBM
is doing .
"Some of the changes are also
likely to have a devastating impact on some areas where
students think they can always get
jobs.
"For example, there was a
private showing early in the NAB
convention of a computercontrolled studio camera system

that requires only one operator to
handle up to about 10 to 12
cameras .
"The cameras are linked
robotically and controlled from a
pre-programmed panel to provide
all the studio camera work that
might be needed . One person only is required to work the panel
and the programs can be changed as the show goes on.
"Under this system, which has
been
mainl y
apparentl y
developed by the Japanese, the
maximum camera travel time to
pick up any spot photographable
in the studio for any of the
cameras linked to the program is
less than the total of two seconds.
' 'These seem to mean that in a
few years studio cameramen may
be in significantly less demand
than they are now.
"The other dominant theme
obvious from all the talk and exhibits was that mass communications majors who think they can
graduate without any computer
terminal, light pencil, mouse control and similiar computer experience had better find another
major.
Students in mass communications will need to take as many
technical skills involving the new
technology as they possibly can
if they expect to find jobs in the
new technology market.
The Mass Communications
Department has alrady begun to
map out new plans for its majors
to be able to fit more comfortably
into the changing market place.
The department expects to have
about a dozen new computer terminals and several modern programs available for its students

Wis. The report was intended as
a response to a recent Defense
Department proposal calling for
development of a system that
could be deployed as early as
1994.
The DOD proposal , which proponents said would require adoption of a more permissive interpretation of the 1972 AntiBallistic Missle treaty, aroused
substantial criticism from Congress and U.S. allies, and the administration
decided ,
in
February, to defer a decision on
the plan until later.
In the report , said to be based
on classified briefings by "more
than 60 SDI scientists , engineers,
project managers, and ballistic

missle defense experts, "the aides
said that they were unable to
gather detailed information about
the design of the "near-term "
defense favored by the Pentagon.
' 'It appears that most members
of Congress are being kept in the
dark about this secret program , "
the report said .
The report said that contractors
working on space-based kinetic
rockets widely thought to be at

been told by the SDI officials that
the system should be capable of
destroying 1,000 warheads. The
authors , calling this a- "token
defense," noted that it dealt with
' 'no more than 11 percent of the
Soviet offensive threat. "

Dr. George Lozanov speaks to students about his speed-learning method , which he claims can increase
language learning ability up to 50 times normal.

Learning method introduced
by Mike Fleming
Staff Writer

The Director of the Institute of
Suggestology claims he has
discovered a way to speed
learning.
Dr. George Lozanov , an experienced psychiatrist and
psychotherapist , spoke with BU.
students Monday .
One of the objectives of this institute is to develop the application
of
suggestion
and
psychotherapy to the teaching of
modern languages.
Suggestopedia , a system for
learning and remembering
several hundred word s of foreign
language per day under normal
classroom conditions , has been
developed to aid in achieving this
objective.
Lozanov 's Learning Method is
a dynamic , stress-free technique
which enables students to learn
great amounts of material in short
periods of time.
The Lozanov Learning Method
works by stimulating both
hemispheres of the brain (the
logical left and the creative right)
causing faster learning and a
higher retainment level . Since full
use of both sides of the brain is
often obstructed by psychological
barriers , most do not learn at a
rate that reflects the full potential.
The Lozanov Learning Method
breaks down these psychological
barriers through several suggestion techni ques, including
rhythmic music to calm both the

body and the mind .
Lozanov claims that his system
speeds up language learning from
five to 50 times over conventional
ways. Memory retention is 80
percent over long periods of time
as compared with traditional
methods in which long-term
retention is minimal.
A typical student , using the
Lozanov Learning Method ,
learns up to 200 words per day
in three hour classes and as many
as 2 ,000 words in a typical
25-day course.

development, computer programming and holistic health.
Classes range in size from 8 to
12 and the cost varies from $585
to $885.

Make the proposal perish
The Parrish Proposal. Parrish
is the right word , but perhaps the
spelling p-e-r-i-s-h would be
more appropriate .
Seldom is the total disregard
for students on the part of the administration more visible than in
the three page proposal presented
by Vice President Robert Parrish
to the Bloomsburg Town Council Monday ni ght.
The first tidbit of neglegence
(not to mention hilarit y) illustrated in this proposal is the
supposed 15 extra parking spaces
that would become available by
making Second St. a one-way .
What is not mentioned by Dr.
Parrish or the Press-Enterpriseis
the fact that a resident 's permit
will be required to park on the
off-campus side of the street.

This part of the proposal would
actually eliminate some of the
parking now utilized by students.
According to the PressEnterprise, Parrish refers to his
proposal as ."a talking paper , to
start discussion between town and
university ." It is interesting to
note that when the proposal was
presented to the student government , talking was not part of Dr.
Perish' s, oops , Parrish' s game
plan.
The student government , attempting to get the university to
follow through with a plan to put
a parking lot on the area between
McCormick Center , Centennial
Gymnasium , and Andruss
Library , was told by Dr. Parrish
that he had a proposal and it was
being
presented
to
the

Bloomsburg Town Council.
It seems odd to note how very
much he wishes to talk to
everyone except those who will
suffer at the implementation of
such a plan.
Another interesting point is the
use of Campus Police to patrol
Second and Third St. in an attempt to nab students who are
parking on these public byways.
Do the Campus Police have so
little to do that at the requisition
of their Lord and Master such an
arrangement is easily installed?
Is it only the students who see
how difficult it is now to park on
or around this campus?
Unless something is done to
stop the implementation of such
a proposal , parking at BU is going to go beyond ridiculous.

Contras are freedom fighters
by Paul Mellon

Guest Columnist

The Contras. Anyone who has
happened to read a newspaper or
watch the news over the last few
months has undoubtedly heard
about the Contras. Most likel y ,
they have been heard about in
connection with the Iran deal
which has caused such an uproar
in Washington latel y.
From what we hear in the
media, it seems as if the Contras
are some enemy force that runs
against American interests.
Well , before we condemn
Oliver North and Ronald Reagan
for assisting the Contras , I think
it appropriate to firs t explore the
situation in which the contras
evolved and exp lain some
back ground on what is going on
in Nicaragua.
The Sandinistas were a revolutionary force fi ghting against the
dictatorshi p of Anatoli Somoza in
Nicaragua during most of the
1970"s. By 1 979 , the Sandinistas
ousted Somoza and took control
or Nicaragua.

It soon became apparent that
the Sandinistas were not going to
relinquish their newfound power
and that communism would be
the best way to retain it. Desp ite
obvious signs of Nicaragua growing more and more communist ,
President Carter and the
Democratic congress gave $75
million in aid to the Sandinistas.
Carter said he was convinced
that the Sandinistas were not
Marxist Leninists. Well , he was
wrong - Almost immediately,
Cuba sent thousands of advisors
and weapons to hel p the Sandinistas consolidate control over
the country . As their military
power grew . Nicaragua attempted to export Soviet sty le communism to El Salvador.
By supporting the leftist
guerillas with Soviet military
equi pment , the Sandinistas were
try ing to topple the government
of El Salvador.
Then came Ronald Reagan and
things began to change. In
February of 198 1, in office less

than one month , Reagan cut off
all further aid to Nicaragua citing
their huge military build-up and
fomenting of revolution in El
Salvador.
Nicaragua was stunned. Dan
Ortega even publicall y admitted
supply ing the guerillas in El
Salvador and promised to stop if
Uncle Sam would send more
money .
Soon the Sandinistas real colors began to show. On June 26 ,
1981 , Eden Pastora , one of the
most popular Sandinistas , quit his
post as Vice Minister of Defense ,
claiming the presence of huge
amounts of Cuban and Soviet
"political units " as well as too
"many observers from Cuba. "
Pastora would go on to join the
Contras to attempt to win the
country 's freedom from communism. In November of the
same year , the Minister of
Defense , Humberto Ortega
Soavedra declared that "our
political force is Sandinista and
our doctrine Marxist-Leninist. "
He wasn ' t kidding. The
Nicaraguan Army numbered
7000 befo re the Sandinistas . B y
December of 198 1, it was 50,000
and growing. It included 30
Soviet T-55 tanks and thousands
of Cuban , Soviet , East German
and Libyan advisors.
To top it off , the PLO was the
first fore ign national office to
open ties with the Sandinistas .
Over 70 Nicaraguans were sent
to Bul garia for flight school training as new shipments of Soviet
MIG
fi ghters and
Hind
helicopters were sent to Cuba.

Guess where they wound up. It
should be noted that the largest
foreign army near the Sandinistas
was in Honduras. It had 11 ,000
men and no tanks. Guatemala and
Costa Rica did not have standing
armies except for citizen militias.
Between 1981 and 1984 , the
Soviets delivered 17,500 tons of
military equipment , according to
the Department of Defense.
Danny Ortega did not get these
new toys from Mother Russia to
play games. Nicaragua is now a
heavily armed camp waiting to

exp lode all over Central
America.
The Contras are a group of
Nicaraguans fighting to give
Democracy a chance in their
homeland. Led by former Sandinistas such as Eden Pastora and
Artua Cruz , former Sandinista
ambassador to the U.S., the Contras are a viable force in
Nicaragua.
With now over 12 ,000 men ,
the Contras have more fighters
than the Sandinistas did in 1979
when they took power.
The Contras need American
support. While Congress debates
whether to give $100 million in
aid to the Contras , Gorbachev
sends hundred s of millions of
dollars worth of military hard ware to the Sandinistas.
Liberals say the Contras cannot win. I guess not if they don 't
get any weapons to fi ght with .
The Contras are not asking the
U.S. to fight their war , but
without military support they will
be finished.
What it boils down to is this .
Will the United States support a
group of young freedom fi ghters
who want to stop a communist
dictatorship from strangling their
country 's freedom and in the process halt Soviet expansion into
Centra l America?
Congress has approved $100
million in aid to the Contras. Incredibl y, because of some
unethical behavior on the part of
Oliver North , Congress wants to
cut off all further aid.
My question is , even if North
did give the Contras the wrong
money, what does that have to . do
with the Contras fi ghting against
the communists? It seems the
Democrats want to punish the
Reagan Administration by allowing Central America to turn Red .
So be it.
Since the Democrats control
congress , Reagan is limited in
what he can do for the Contras.
But remember , Nicaragua is only 1,000 miles miles away from
Texas. Anyone who has driven to
Florida from Bloomsburg should
know that is not very far. Maybe
someone should tell Congress.

ITS SAFE'.-

Abortion a matter of choice
by Bob Bailey
Guest Columnist

I started this Sunday to look for
a top ic to write about , something
reall y political and controversial.
As with anything else , I became
frustrated as I pushed to find a
top ic. I decided to take a break
and go do my wash—a fate that
1 fear more than death.
After piling my clothes into a
washer , I sat down at a table cluttered with newspapers . I clicked
Peter Gabriel into my walkman
and was going to tune the world
out. Ly ing in front of my was
Thursday ' s Press-Enterprise
open to the editorial page . As I
read, one letter to the editor
caug ht my eye.
It was written by a ten-year-old
in response to an editorial on
abortion. This ten-year-old
couldn 't understand how a person
could be in favor of abortion.
"Did you know that the baby
is burned by the saline injection?" this ten-year-old wrote .
"Did you know that sometimes
the baby, or part of the baby, is
left in the mother? Did you know
that the baby actuall y screams in
pain? Just because the person 's

father was a rapist you want to
kill him/her?
As I sat there , several thoughts
came to mind. First , it seems
remarkable to me that a ten-yearold would have a knowledge of
exactly what an abortion entails
medicall y.
I wondered if at ten this child
was well versed on both sides of
the issue to' come to form such
opinions. Either mom and dad
whispered some facts into
junior 's ear or this guy did a hell
of a lot of research .
I don 't remember spending
much time in the libra ry as a
ten-year-old.
vj nc aciiicin.c in inc lcuc i icai-

ly disturbed me. "Just because
the baby 's father was a rapist you
want to kill him/her. " As I
thought about that sentence, I
looked across the laundramat and
saw a couple with a newborn doing their wash.
The cutest little baby, smiling
and laughing. Mom and dad taking turns folding wash and play ing with the baby . The couple
was very happy , as was their
child. I thought maybe that 's why
I am pro-choice , pro-abortion.
What kind of family would it

be if the child was not a product
of love between two people? It is
often said that the embryo has the
ri ght to life. It 's a question of
quality life as opposed to just life.

There may be some cases
where the mother, despite the circumstances, would be able to
love the child. A person like that
I would really admire , but the
choice must be left with the
mother or couple.
No outside force or special interest group should make that
decision for a woman or couple
of which it has no knowledge.
The people concerned should
decide for themselves whether or
not abortion
is morall y
acceptable.
Afte r the child is born who will
decide what kind of clothes the
child will wear , what school will
be attended , or what church , if
any , will be worshipped in?
The parents will decide.
Therefore shouldn 't the right to
decide if, when , and under what
circumstances a child should be
born rest with the parent or
parents, and not with the Catholic
Church , the Moral Majority , or
the federal government?

Consider why we are here
Editor:
This is in response to the article that appeared in The Voice on
March 26. It concerned the evergrowing parking problem at
Bloomsburg University .
As a junior student , I find
myself looking forward to
graduation next year when I will
no longer have to put up with the
problem of always try ing to find
a place to park on campus. It
seems no matter where I look on
campu s there is never a place
available. Available for students
that is.. .There always seems to be
empty spaces in the areas marked "Faculty/Staff. "
I honestly believe that the problem does not lie with the
students, who many times are being forced to park illegally out of
desperation.
In my opinion , the fault lies
with Administration. If they (administration) would just come to
the realization that there are just
not enoug h parking spaces
available on campus, maybe, just
maybe, they would be a bit more
sympathetic toward s students as
they slap the ticket on the windshield of that illegally parked
vehicle.
Every time I arrive on campus
I circle around and fail to find any
empty spaces behind McCormick, near Centennial Gym or on
the street near Hartline. I then go
on up to the tennis courts but what
I find are not only a lack of
available spaces but about 5 or 6
cars parked illegally near the
entrance.
Dr. Parrish's proposal to make
"...the parking lot behind
McCormick...exclusively for
faculty " is outrageous. Faculty
do not need more parking, they
need less. Giving them more
available spaces by taking the
FEW we students do have is not
a solution to the problem.
Doing so can only complicate

matters more. The answer lies in
giving students MORE spaces ,
not LESS.
The other proposal of Dr. Parrish' s that more discipline is
needed is also not the answer. We
are not children and do not
deserve to be treated as such. All
we are asking for is a place to
park our cars , not constant
frustration and monetary loss. We
pay our tuition every year. In
return , is it too much to ask for
a parking place so we can get to
class on time?
Dr. Parrish's other point , that
no student wants to use the
hospital parking lot because then
they have to walk six minutes to
class, is only half true. For me,
whose classes are either in
McCormick or Bakeless, it is a
10-12 minute hike and it 's all up
hill. I believe that if the administration pays $12,000 a year
for the use of the hospital parking lot, expecting students to walk
6 minutes or so to their classes,

then faculty should also have the
opportunity for this exercise.
I suggest that Dr. Parrish start
looking for solutions and stop
making an intolerable situation
worse. I recommend the following proposals:
-make all of the area behind
McCormick for students, including the area now designated
for faculty parking
-provide a shuttle bus service
from the hospital parking lot to
the main campus (which should
include an area for faculty
parking)
-hand out less tickets until this
problem is resolved , thereby
calming hostilities between
students and campus police
-ask for student input for solutions, some of the responses may
amaze the administration
Lastly and probably most importantly, the administration is
not to forget the sole purpose of
this institution, that it exists solely
for the education of its students .

At a press conference held in
the lobby of the Capitol Building
in Harrisburg , state-wide President of CAS , Ann Pavkovic
said ,"Public higher education , as
a tool for the social and economic
advancement of working-class
Pennsy lvanians , is increasingly
unobtainable.
At $1,818 a year , Pennsylvania
already has the fourth highest tuition and fee rate in the nation for
public higher education. "
Pavkovic stated that with a
$175 tuition increase , public
education will no longer be public
and will be unaccessible. She said
that to keep tuition stable , the
state legislature must appropriate
$308,580,000, a 10.45 percent
increase over last year. Penn-

"^^llfe-.

Here is a partial list of some of
the offerings for 1987:
Yugo GV/GVX
The Yugo comes with a 1.1
liter four-cy inder motor which
can be mated to a four-speed
manual transmission. The sportier(?) GVX offers a 1.3 liter
motor and a five speed transmission. For $3990, though , what do
you want , a Corvette? Base
price— $3990

Chevrolet Chevette

The Chevette is an old-timer
whose time has long since passed. The rear-wheel drive is
evidence of its age. A 1.6 liter
four-banger churns away under
the little Chevy 's hood as it has
done for so long. This , too, shail
pass as this is the last year of
Chevette production. Base
price— $4995

Hyundai Excel

Korea 's challenger for the
bargain basement crown is probably one of the best buys in its
class. The Hyundai (like SUNDAY) comes in three , four and
five-door models with a choice of
motors totalling one , an SOHC
1.5 liter -four-cylinder. The Excel would make a fine vehicle if
the engineers could only make the
car last a little longer. Maybe
they did this year , maybe not.
Only time and consumer survey s
will tell. Base price— $4995

Subaru Justy

Subaru 's new-for-'87 model
features an unusual three cylinder
powerplant, displacing 1.2 liters .
A five-speed manual transmission
carries power to the front-wheel
drive. Air conditioning and other
luxuries are not forgotten on this
little zinger. Base price— $5366
Subaru Hatchback
The little three-door Hatchback
is a carryover from as long ago
as they have been making the little Brats . A 1.6 liter four is the
base motor and an optional
powerplant is upped to 1.8 liters .
Four-wheel-drive is availab le but
only with the four-speed manual
tranny . Base price— $5398

Dodge/Plymouth America

The best thing about the
Americas is not that Dodge and
Plymouth consider their least expensive models so generic as to
give them both the same name but
that the motor is Mopar 's legendary 2.2 liter four cylinder. This
is the normally aspirated version
of the turbo-charged motor found
in the Dodge Daytona. The cars
are the same econo-boxes they
have been since 1977, only the
name on the trunklid will be different. Base price— $5799

Honda Civic

If you see a Civic pass by, you
may mistake it for a grounddwelling mammal. Its low nose
and bulbous body are unusual but
cute . Base 1.3 liter and optional
1.5 liter motors are available on
this petrol miser. Available Si
version is a sporty beast while the
four-door sedan and five-door
wagon have plenty of domestic
practicality . Base price— $5799

The fisherman 's tale
by John Oswald

Staff Writer

It is that time of the year again
when men and women all acrossPennsylvania journey to the far
reaches of their cellar to obtain...their fishing equipment.
The glory of finding the equipment however is shortlived . You
discover your hip boots no longer
fit , or they have major blow outs.
Your tackle, box is filled with
mud from last year 's fishing
endeavors and the line on your
reel has a massive tangle in it.
Don 't forget to change it. You
wouldn 't want to miss "the big
one " all because of a dry-rotted
line .
Then , after all of these frustrations are done, you find it is time
to fork out $12.50 for a new
liscense (Don 't you wish you
were once again under the age of

see CARS page S

16, when you didn t need a
liscence).
Next , you must restock your
tackle box with much needed or
much wanted items. These in-r
elude hooks , split ; shot,, salmon
eggs, bobbers , spinners , lines ,
and possibly the never failing fish
formula that you saw on TV for
$19.99 or your money back.
It is early morning on the first
day of fishing and you put on
your lucky clothes and pack the
car. Then it is off to your favorite
fishing hole.
Of course, you watched the fish
and game forecast the night
before , and you read all of the
aricles on how to be a successful
angler in Field and Stream.
Next you arrive at your
destination , and much to your
dismay , so have 30 other anglers.

Pledging a sorority was among
Donovan 's extra-curricular activities. Her sophomore year she
pledged Phi Iota Chi. Donovan
recalled her deaf friends did not
think it was right. "They told me
I would fail , that I needed the extra time to study. " Donovan felt
pledging was a way to meet new
people and to increase her selfconfidence.
"Pled ging, "
Donovan notes , "was not reall y
hard ; I do not see anything as
hard , I am used to it. It was
something I reall y wanted ."
The Bloomsburg Association
of Hearing Impaired was another
of her activities. Althoug h she
was the treasurer , Donovan was
not reall y involved with it. She
believed it should have been "less
stress on deaf and more sharing
with others , like a support
group. "
"I keep it to myself," Donovan
says, "but , I have worked hard ."
She remarked that , "Some deaf
people are very selfish , especially
those that are raised around only
deaf people- they expect hearing
to come to them , to help them;
they do nots go out of their way
to do anything for themselvesthey expect the hearing to do it
for them. "
This is what makes Donovan so
different. She does not look at a
challenge or opportunity differently than hearing people
would . Donovan said , "When I
was younger , I was afraid to do
anything. Now when I decide to
do something, I do it. If others
are bothered by me being around ,
it is their problem , not mine ."
For Kathryn Donovan and
other deaf people , life has been
more than a day-by-day experience. Instead , it has been one
goal after another. To learn just
a sing le word was a challenge. To
learn "mommy " or "daddy " she
had to go to school. This has
made Donovan a "go getter "
who hopes to get what she wants
in life.

That dreaded monster is hack again

by Lynne Ernst
Features Editor*

Just when you thought it was
safe to go to the Union , that
dreaded , unavoidable monster
has come back again to reek
havoc on the students of BU.
No matter how fast you run ,
you can 't escape the horrors of SCHEDULING. Yes, it is once
again that time of the semester
when students hurry about in a
frenzy trying to organize their
class loads for the following
semester.
Doesn't it seem like it was just
yesterday that you stood in line
waiting to feed your choices into
the .terminal , onl y to be told that
the class was filled? Or even still
more vivid in your memory might
be the vision of yourself trying to
track down your advisor.

Let's face it, half the campus
is confused about where to go,
and the other half is confused
about what they need to do once
they get there.
First, the beginning process of
scheduling can be very hectic, not
only for the freshman , but also
for the experienced scheduler.
Because unlike wine, scheduling
does not get better with time.
The first step of scheduling
would be to get a course listing
and see your advisor. But , as in
most things , this is easier said
than done.
It took me an entire semester
to figure out that the advisor
assigned to me my freshman year
was no longer my advisor.
Unbeknownst to me , not only had
someone changed my advisor ,
but I was also in a department
other than my major. I don 't
know how or why this all came

about , but when I need a John
Hancock on my student class
scheduling form , who am I to
argue?
After all , I should consider
myself one of the more fortunate
ones, because at least I now have
an advisor. From what I've seen
and heard from others on campus, there are quite a few lost and
wandering pups out there who
don 't know which way to turn
because they have no advisor or
aren 't quite sure who there advisor is.
Another headache broug ht
about by scheduling is the actual
process of figuring out the times
you want to take your classes.
Throug h trial and error I have
discovered that I am neither a
morning person or an evening
person. Those 8 a.m. classes are
just too early for me, and my attention span is not at the level

Parking at BU a mere game

Parking.
The word conjures up images
of illicit activities in cars.
But at this college, it means but
one thing.
Problems.
I don 't really feel like jumping
onto any bandwagon here, as I
will be leaving the school soon
enough.
I know that sounds like a
copout, but I have been putting
up with 3 years (and 2 summers;
I' might add) of attempting to find
parking spaces on and off

Two lawyers in love
by Chip Gaydos
for The Voice

Romance , sex, money , a good
plot, a good theme song, and a
few big stars all put together in
the legal system makes Legal
Eagles the movie it is. By being
funny , while still giving an interesting mystery this movie
shows that Hollywood can still
give an old-fashioned entertaining show.
Set in New York , the movie
centers on Chelsea Deerden
(Daryl Hannah) and the help she
gets from two lawyers, Tom
Logan (Robert Redford) and
Laura Kelly (Debra Winger) to
regain her dead father's paintings.
Supposedly the paintings had
been lost in a fire that also killed
the artist , but it turns out that the
paintings are still around. As
Chelsea tries to get the only thing
left after her father after his
death ; murder , lies, and money
become more and more the norm.
Logan and Kelly than must
make their way through all of this
intrigue and deception to prove
their client's innocence of committing thefts and murders and
still have time to fall in love.
The idea seems kind of boring ,
but with the help of a good script
the action moves along quickly.
Also, there is enough humor,
even though the killer, aronist ,
and theft of the story is obvious
from the start of the movie, to
keep the movie goer entertained.
Redford and Winger once
again prove that they are both
talented performers. For each of
them , this was their first movie
in awhile, but it is obvious that
the wait was well worth it. The
budding romance between the
two lawyers is comical, predictable, but still likable. One of the
better parts of LegalEagles is the
dialogue that goes on between the
two characters, especially after

class. I just can 't seem to escape
them.
Then with scheduling, there is
always the fear that you just
aren 't doing things right. I
wonder how many seniors at this
moment are trying to figure out
if they have enough credits to
graduate. More than one student
has been denied graduating on
time because of having failed to
complete one little credit. And
with the multitude of things that
can go wrong, it's not difficult to
see why these tragedies happen.
If it were up to me, I'd begin
a course on campus called Learning How to Schedule, The Right
Way . The course would definetly be worth 4 credits due to the
difficulty of the matter at hand ,
and it would never be offered at
the ungodly hour of 8 a.m.
but , it s not up to me. So for
now we have to struggle through
scheduling in hopes that , once
again , we make it throug h this
dreaded process with our sanity

still intact.

Tale

from page 4

with a 9-year-old on your right ,
and "Joe Fisherman " on your
left.
It's 5:30 a.m. and the trout are
jumping out of of the water
everywhere , but unfortunately
you can 't cast out until 8 a.m.
(it's the law). So you sit there and
listen to "Joe Fisherman's" story
about the 25 inch rainbow trout
that he says is hang ing on his
wall.
Finally it is time to cast out and
somehow the little 9-year-old
manages to get his line tangled
with your * line. As you are attempting to untie the lines , visions of you and your family sitting at Arthur Treachers fills your
mind .

Volleyball

This coming Saturday , April
11 , the Program Board is sponsoring "Balloon Volleyball ,"
which begins at 7 p.m. in Centennial Gym. Anyone wishing to
partici pate should show-up.

In frustration both lines are cut ,
and you think to yourself , what
a way to start the day .
Minutes later you catch the first
one. It's only 7 inches , but it increases your enthusiasm
tremendously.
Fortunatel y, for college
students who are avid fishermans ,
we will be home on April 18,
which is the first day of trout
fishing this year.
Unfortunately, we must return
on Tuesday to pursue our studies
while the 9-year-old catches all of
the fish on his entire week off
from elementary school.
In conclusion , I leave you with
a few tips:
1. Plan your trip ahead of time
to avoid last minute confusion .
2. Take your time and tie your
knots tightly to avoid losing trout.
3. Remember the trout must be
at least 7 inches long.
4. Don't exceed the limit which
is 8 trout.
5. Watch out for snakes.
6. Watch for no trespassing
signs.
Good Luck!

Huskies drop pair

Sports Editor

by Mike Mullen

by Mike Mullen

I don t feel the need to
say 'I toid you so ' to Mr.
Michaels , but I did. Sugar
Ray Leonard won in 12, exactl y what I said he would
do.
And don 't give me that
'118-110' stuff. Did you see
the fi ght? Then keep your
mouth shut until HBO airs
it so you can see for
yourself that my man won
fair and square .
There is no controversy ,
why , the odds kept dropping from 4-1 down to 2-1 by
fight time. It 's no suprise
that Leonard won. The odds
were with him.
So , since I' ve had such
success with picking winners (who j u s t said
'Syracuse '?) I am going to
lay the odds on some happenings for the 1987
baseball season , and various
other summer sports.
3-1 - One of the two fighters
(Hag ler and Leonard) will
retire without another bout.
7-1 - They both retire and
fulfill the other half of my
fight prediction.
2-1 - The New York Mets
get into a brawl during the
month of April.
9-1 - The New York Mets
get into brawls with every
team in the National league
this season.
3-1 - A member of the New
York Mets is arrested
before the season is over.
5-1 - Mike Schmidt wins the
Most Valuable Player
Award this year.
2-1 - Mike Schmidt retires
this season if he wins the
MVP Award .
3-1 - Gary Carter hits below
.250 again this season.
2-1 - Steve Carlton gives up
a homerun in his first appearance with the Indians.
4-1 - While your at a
Philadel phia - New York
game , Schimidt hits a
homerun in the bottom of
the ninth to break a 0-0 tie
and the jubilated fan behind
you spills beer down your
back.
15-1 - Don Mattingly has an
even better year (if that is
possible) but Mike Norris
wins the Cy Young and the
MVP Award .
100-1 - Mattingly betters his
numbers but it is Steve
Carlton who beats him out
for the MVP.
4-1 - Kirby Puckett wins the
batting title.
2-1 - The Pete Rose led
Reds win their division.
9-1 - Juan Samuel strikes
out less than he did last
year.
3-1 - Samuel repeats , for the
fourth time , double figures
in
doubles ,
triples ,
homeruns and stolen bases.
1000-1 - Schmidt doesn 't hit
his 500th homerun this
season.
10000- 1 - The Phillies meet
the Indians in the ' World
Series and emergency
starter Steve Carlton pitches
a no-hitter against his
former club to win it for the
Indians.

Steve Sees releases the pitch against Mansfield yesterday afternoon. The Huskies lost a doubleheader to
the Mounties, and also the services of Sees who fell and broke his collarbone.(Voice photo by Bob Finch).

The Bloomsburg University
baseball team dropped both
games of their double header with
visiting Mansfield yesterday at
Litweiler field.
They were not the two biggest
losses of the day , however, as
Coach John Babb suffered
another blow to his alread y
depleting pitching corps when
Steve Sees slipped while rounding
third , fell to the ground and suffered a broken collarbone during
the second game.
Babb described the loss of his
only lefthander in the pitching
rotation as "devastating....He's
pitched well in other games , including
Kutztown
and
Millersville as well as today 's
game , he really deserved to win
them. "

The Huskies lost the first game
of the twin bill by a score of 8-1.
Sees pithced first four innings
before giving way to sophomore
Eric Peterson.
Babb commented that they
were never really in a position to
win the game so he saved Sees for
the next game.
The second game was tied at
two when th ree consecutive hits
gave Mansfield a 3-2 lead they
wouldn 't lose.
Babb said , "Our pitching was
decent but all our guys who had
opportunities to deliver , just
didn 't. "
"We had the bases loaded at
least three times in the game aiid
stranded at least 13 or 14 runners
in those seven innings. One
player got picked off of first with
the bases loaded and two outs
with a 3-1 count , I don 't know
where he was going, " he added.

Yet another season is to begin in the Majors
by Dave Sauter
Sports Editor

With the coming of spring
comes the beg inning of yet
another year of America 's national pastime , baseball.
And with the start of this new
season comes many questions
which can only be answered over
time.
Such questions as, 'Can those
cocky and arrogant Mets be the
dominant team they were in
1986 , as every other team in the
National League plays them with
the intensity of the seventh game
of the World Series?'

'Will the loss of superstar
(superidiot?), Dwi ght Gooden ,
combined with the loss of Roger
McDowell for two months
eliminate New York from being
a factor this season?'
'Can Mike Schmidt have yet
another MVP season which could
push the Phillies ri ght into the
World Series?'
'Can the Red Sox overcome
last year 's heartbreaks and a
70-year old curse to finally win
the World Series , or will Roger
demons' greediness foil their efforts for yet another year?'
'Will this be the year of the
darkhorses as the Cleveland In-

Banks and Bonomo are
honored by the E WL
Three-time Eastern Wrestling
League and NCAA champion
Rick Bonomo of Bloomsburg
University was a unanimous
selection as the EWL's 'Wrestler
of the Year ' for an unprecedented
third consecutive time by a panel
from the media and coaches.
Bonomo has set a fist full of
record s at both the EWL and
NCAA tournaments during his
brilliant career. Afte r finishing
runner-up at 118 his freshman
year to eventual NCAA champion Carl DeStefanis of Penn
State , Rick rolled to three consecutive EWL titles and is the
career scoring leader for the event
with 56.50 points.
He was selected the tournament 's Outstanding Wrestler in
both the 1986 and . 1987
championships.
At the recent NCAA Championshi ps at the University of
Mary land , Rick went through
five opponents to capture his third
consecutive crown and in the process added to his list of EWL
records.
He s won 16 straight NCAA
bouts which is an EWL best and
he 's first on the all-time win list
with a mark of 18-2. He's the
career scoring leader for the loop
with a remarkable 74.75 points.
While Bonomo is the first
three-timechamp from the EWL ,
he 's also the first wrestler in the
12 year history of the loop to be
selected the tournament's OW
and Wrestler of the Year in back
to back years. He's the first EWL
wrestler to receive the loop 's
coveted award three consecutive
times.
"Rick's accomplishments here
at Bloomsburg speaks for itself.
He 's had a fabulous career. His
overall performance is not only
a credit to our program, but to the
EWL as well," said Bloomsburg
Coach Roger Sanders . "We 're
elated for Rick receiving this
award a third time. "
Meanwhile, Bonomo compiled
a career record of 115-12-1 , with
most of those losses coming while
competing at 126 pounds. He was

also a three-time winner at the
Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Championshi ps.
Bonomo missed a portion of
the 1987 season when he underwent knee surgery in the middle
of January . He was 27-2 this
season.
The champion is a senior from
Sweet Valley , PA , and only the
second native of Pennsylvania to
win three NCAA titles. Erie 's
Nate Carr was the first while
wrestling for Iowa State .
Bloomsburg's Mark Banks was
voted the EWL's Freshman of the
Year by the league's coaches and
a select panel from the media.
The York , PA , native recently
missed by one victory of earning
All-American honors at the
NCAA Tournament at the
University of Mary land.
During the season Banks competed at 158 pounds and hammered out a 23-12-2 mark for the
Huskies.
At the EWL Tournament , he
lost to champ ion Ken Haselrig of
Clarion , but wrestled his way
back to capture third and earn a
trip to the NCAA tourney . He
was the only freshman to get to
the NCAA event from the EWL.
Banks posted three wins and
3.50 points in helping Coach
Roger Sanders' Huskies to a fifthplace finish, highest in school
history at the NCAAs.
Early in the season Banks
demonstrated his ability by
wrestiing to a 5-5 draw with Iowa
State's Stewart Carter.
"Mark has a lot of potential
and when he becomes fundamentally sound , he will be an AllAmerican ," Sanders said. "We
felt he improved during the
course of the season. This is a
nice award for him and should
motivate him to even greater
heights in the future . "
He was a third-place finisher in
his first Pennsylvania Conference
Tournament, too. He lost to
Haselrig there also.
He is also the first Husky to
win this prestigious award .

dians. Texas Rangers , and San
Francisco Giants all have the
potential to win their respective
decisions?'
Onl y time will tell.
But what is the start of the
baseball season without my often
wrong set of predictions? Here is
how I think the standings in the
American League should look at
the end of the year. Watch the
next issue of the Voice for my
National League predictions.

American League East
1. New York Yankees- If the
Yanks can overcome their pitching woes, and Ron Guidry
returns , this team could be a
World Series winner.
2. Toronto Blue Jays- The Blue
Jays also are loaded with potential , but have just a few too many
pitching problems. The key is
Dave Stieb starting and finishing
the season strong.
3. Boston Red Sox- Bosox will

win the division only if demons
can have the type of season he
had in 1986. Oil Can Boyd can 't
have a temper tantrum and Marc
Gedman ' s loss' must be
overcome.
4. Cleveland Indians- My choice
as the darkhorse team of the East.
Again , pitching is their downfall ,
and I' m sorry to say , signing
Steve Carlton will not solve any
problems.
5. Milwaukee Brewers- This is
one underrated team that could
pull a big surprise. The Brewers
are young, but able. Who knows
what kind of seasons a bunch of
rookies could produce.
6. Baltimore Orioles- Cal
Ripkin , Sr. will not pull any
miracles in his first year. Ripkin ,
Jr. and Don Aase are the only
players coming off of productive
years. The defense is horrible.
7. Detroit Tigers- Losing Lance
Parrish will be the downfall of the
Tigers in 1987. More pitching is

Kahres sparks golf
by Mike Mullen
Sports Editor

Bloomsburg University golfer
Bill Kahres shot an 82 on Susquehanna Valley Country Club's
course in leading the Bloomsburg
University golf team to a fourth
p lace finish out of nine teams in
the Susquehanna Invitational on
Monday .
Bucknell won the invitational
with a five man team score of 387
(an average of 77 per man), leaving second place Millersville, 419
(84 average) , in the dust.
Third place went to Dickinson
who hit a 421 (84 average) and
then came Bloomsburg in fourth

with a 424 (85 average) just one
strike ahead of host Susquehanna , 425 (85 average).
Rounding out the tournament
were York , Pa., 442, Delaware
Valley , 466, Lycoming, 493 and
Messiah , 523.
The low score for Bloomsburg
was Kahres with his 82. Dan
Kelbaugh was a stroke of the pace
with an 83, while teammates
Scott Griffis and Bob Myers each
shot 84's. Don Lyman rounded
out the five-man team with his
91.
The next event will be today at
Kutztown with Lock Haven and
Shippensburg.

needed to help Jack Morris and
Willie Hernandez. Can Kirk Gibson return from his injuries in
1986?
American League West
1. Texas Rangers- This is the
year for the Rangers as their
many rookies of 1986 avoid the
sophomore jinx in '87. The hitting of Pete Incaviglia and Pete
O'Brien will be the key .
2. Kansas City Royals- KC suffered an off-year in '86, but have
the talent to rebound in 1987.
Starting pitching should not be the
problem , but Dan Quisenberry 's
problems must be solved .
3. Oakland Athletics- The A' s
are like the underrated Brewers ,
but instead of rookies , are full of
aging superstars. If the desires of
Reggie Jackson , Ron Cey , and
Dwayne Murphy are there, the
A s could pull off the league
championship.
4. California Angels- Butch
Wynegar must handle Bob
Boone 's absence at catcher , and
Wally Joyner must avoid the
sophomore blues for the Angels
to have any hope.
5. Minnesota Twins- Kirby
Puckett and Kent Hrbeck must
have strong seasons, but even if
this happens, pitching and catching woes will doom Minnesota.
6. Seattle Mariners- The
Mariners have the power hitting
and some decent defense , but too
many question marks at pitching.
7. Chicago White Sox- A team
that is going nowhere fast. The
pitching is halfway-decent, but
the batting is horrible. Harold
Baines and Greg Walker are the
only bright spots on offense.
