Retirees
honored
at specia l

by Jacki Boettger
for The Voice
Retiree Appreciation Day, sponsored by the personnel department,
honored former employees of
Bloomsburg University.
Last Saturday 75 people, including
43 honorees, attended the program
which celebrated the Bicentennial of
the United States Constitution.
Three groups represented at the
program were: the 24th Connecticut
Volunteer Regiment, the 12th Pennsylvania Volunteer Regiment, and the
Northumberland Volunteers.
The first part of thc program ,
planned by Bob Wislock , education
and training officer, was a reception in
the President's Lounge. President
Harry Ausprich and Dr. Robert Parrish , vice president of administration ,
spoke at the reception.
A member of the Connecticut regiment commented on the social attitude of the Revolutionary period during a presentation in the Kehr Union ,
complete with authentic costumes of
the time.
Susan Lucas, a participant in the
program , focused on the role of
women in the Revolutionary period in
her presentation.
A luncheon in the Scranton Commons followed.
In the afternoon , a reenactment ofa
Revolutionary battle, to place at
Nelson Fieldhouse. Muskets and
rifles were used in some scenes. Other
scenes featured setting up camp.
Authentic music was performed by
the Berwick Fife and Drum Corps.
Balloons which contained messages
for their recipients to contact the senders were released at the site.
Finally Barry Feudale, a Shamokin
attorney, spoke about what our personal rights mean to us. Atty. Feudale
is a Bloomsburg graduate who is the
chairman of the Constitutional
Committee of the Northumberland
County Bar Association. He recendy
resigned his postof public defender of
Northumberland County to run for
judgeship in Northumberland
County.
Dr. J. David Cunningham, director
of personnel and labor relations, said
that this year's program for retirees
was a variation from the ones held the
three previous years, which included
lunch, a tour of the campus, and a
football game.
This is an opportunity for those of
us who are still at the University to
honor those who have given such
loyal service and who were able to
return to evaluate stewardship that
they have passed on to us," Cunningham said.

U.S. Rep. Paul Kanjorski participated in his first televised town meeting Friday,speaking to a live audience
of approximatel y 70 people in the
television studio of McCormick
Human Services Center.
University President Harry
Ausprich hosted the show , which was
transmitted on WVIA-TV Channel
44 live.
BU students shared the responsibility of production with the WVIA staff.
Before the meeting started, a brief ,
sludent produced tape was played,
showing what BU has to offer academically and recreationally.
WVIA President Dr. John Walsh
acted as commentator during the
event. He opened the question and
answer period by giving a brief history of Kanjorski' s actitivies.
Kanjorski , the democratic representitive of the llth district praised
the tape and said it was as good as
anything he's seen on national TV.
Kanjorski's comments about the
televised meeting were positive.
"We're extending eyes and ears
throughout the 11th district," he said.
"Now I can talk to thousands of
people instead of just a handful at a
meeting."

Along with the television connection , telephone connections also
made it possible for people in the
listening audience to participate in the
meeting.
Callers from Berwick, Danville,
Wilkes-B^rre, Hazleton , and other locations surrounding Bloomsburg
called in questions concerning social
security, minimum wage and employee benefits , and the Congressional pay increase.
A caller from Berwick asked the
congressman how , with the economy
like it is in eastern Pennsylvania,
Congress can continue to vote itself
pay increases.
Kanjorski answered by saying he
was against the latest pay increase,
and he will put the additional pay
allocated to him into a special education fund.
He also said that he feels fortunate
to live in northeastern Pennsylvania
were the cost of living is not as high as
other parts of the country such as
Nevada or California.
"Members of Congress live in all of
these areas," he said.
Kanjorski added that the pay raise
stemmed from the President Reagan
and not frcm Congress.
During the meeting, Kanjorski repeatedly blamed the high deficit for

many of the problems brought ap by
the audience.
One couple with a catastrophically
ill child asked where they can turn for
some relief from the high medical
costs.
" I'd like to be able to say we can
pass a bill," the congressman told
them, "but there is no way that can
happen with the deficit. I can't promise anything, but we need to get together soon...I'll work with you."
Another caller asked the Congressman what what he has done to bring
jobs to the area. Kanjorski responded
that he sees a bright future for northeastern Pennsylvania. He continued
saying that he has been overseas negotiating with foreign companies to
bring their industry into the area.

Kanjorski mentioned the possibility of a national company coming into
the state, bringing at least 250 jobs
with it in the beginning, and many
more later.
The age of 1987 is promising," the
Congressman concluded. "Everyday
is new, exciting, promising."
He stressed that everybody is aware
of the problems the country is facing.
We need, he said, to be optimistic.
Kanjorski previously practiced law
in Wiikes-Barre.

Greek advisors meet

by Genua Koval
f o r The Voice
The ideas of a "wet-rush" and "dryrush" were discussed in a Sept. 23
meeting ofth e Greek Advisory Board
in the Kehr Union .
Greek advisors are trying to convert
all rushes to non-alcoholic events.
The majority of advisors, however,
have found lhat this idea is catching
on quicker wilh sororities than with
fratcnitics.
Attending the meeting were Joy
Helsel, chairperson of the Greek
Advisory Board, and sixteen other
members representing 14 state universities.
The majority of the meeting was
spent discussing the new Anti-Hazing
Policy adopted by all state universities. Hazing is defined as anything

embarrassing, intimidating or humiliating that a pledge is made to do during rush.
With the adoption of the AntiHazing Policy this is no longer allowed, even if the pledge is willing.
The problem of where to draw the
line for the Anti-Hazing Policy was
discussed at the meeting and all board
members agreed that the policy needs

The 1987 Fall Rush season opened
last Wednesday night when nine sororities represented themselves at the
Inter-sorority
Council' s All
President's Talk in Carver Hall.
ISC President Debbie Kaszycki ran
the meeting. Representing sororities
were presidents Joan McNichol ,
Alpha Sigma Alpha; Sharon Torrisi,
Delta Epsilon Beta; Michelle Tinman,
Phi Delta; Sandy Coleburn, Sigma
Sigma Sigma; Bethann Williams, Chi
Sigma Rho; Jamie Beiz, Alpha Sigma

Tau; Maria Mazenga, Theta Tau
Omega; Paula Jo Lawson, Chi Theta
Pi; and Monica Green, Phi Iota Chi.
Although Alpha Sigma Tau will be
unable to participate in the Rush activities, all members were present to
show support for the Greek system.
Approximately 180 girls attended
the meeting, as compared to 130 girls
last semester.
"I think a lot more people are going
through Rush because they want to
know what's going on (in reference to
the new hazing policy)," said
Kaszycki.

War never a solution

To the Editor:
I would like to condemn Mr.
Stephen Mellon on his illogical, narrow-minded opinion of the situation
in Nicaragua.
It is clearly Mr. Mellon 's opinion
that in order to achieve peace in Nicaragua, the U.S. government must perpetuate war. This idea has been tried
before Mr. Mellon, in WWI.
It was proclaimed as "the war to end
wars."I have two questions: Who was
the winner of WWI and how many
wars have there been since?
It is also apparent that U.S. aggression would lead to more aggression on
the part of the Sandinistas, an escala"tion of fire-power on both sides, and
eventually a situation reminiscent of
Vietnam.
Perhaps being subconsciously
aware of the weakness of his arguments, Mr. Mellon relied primarily on
anit-communist propaganda to convey his ideas. I lean to the left , but if I
was a conservative, Mr. Mellon , your
techniques would have embarrassed
me.
Come now Mr. Mellon , fangs of
an immoral political machine", "a red
stain in the Americas", "Soviets running rampid"?? I have never heard of
the word rampid, either.
Plateaus, sir, all plateous. If you

want to say things like that, it's okay,
as long as you illustrate what you
mean. For example, it would not be
appropriate for me to blurt out "There
are narrow-minded, unreasonable
conservatives who write editorials to
The Voice" without backing it up
with examples like the one to which I
am responding.

I know, Mr. Mellon, that you may
come from a long line of narrowminded people. All of your friends
and family may be unreasonable. You
can stand on your own feet, though.
It's okay to admit that Russia isn't the
center of evil in the universe, and lhat
Russians aren 't all potential "red
stains" whenever on Western soil.
Did you know, Mr. Mellon, that
Russia boasts many of the best artists
in the world today? Such men as Shostokovisc, the composer, Baryshnikov,
the dancer , Vosnezenski , and
Yevtushenko, the poets, and Pasternok, tlie novelist, have been exceptionally insightful and inspirational.
If the Russian government is that
oppressive, certainly such art could
not flourish.
While the Russian people pack stadiums to attend poetry readings, I see
more and more Americans embrace
fully songs with lyrics such as,

"Boom , boom, boom , let's go back to
my room" and "sex is natural, sex is
fun."
It has often been said that art, in a
broad sense, is a reflection ofthe society in which it is produced. If this is
true, Americans are very shallow.
Robin Williams, in Moscow on the
Hudson , summed up the difference
between living in Russia and the U.S.
well: "In Russia, you may have lo
fight for a crumb of freedom , but in
America, you shit on it."
Mr. Mellon, use your freedom well.
Russia is certainly no heaven on
Earth , but neither is the United States.

Anti-humanizing the machine

Another Democrat falls down

by Paul Mellon
Staff Columnist
I am beginning to believe that the
Democrats do not really want to
have a member of their party elected
to the White House. Perhaps this is
due to the fact that they have lost
four of the last five presidential
elections, or possibly they are still
upset about winning a total of one
state in the last election.
Whatever the reason , it seems
obvious that the Democrats are
going to have some major trouble in
1988; that is if any of their candidates for president can make it to the
election without self-destructing.
Only a few weeks ago, Gary Hart,
then the Democratic front runner ,
committed political suicide by
having a young, good-looking
woman stay over at his house one
night while his wife was nowhere to
be found.
Unfortunately for Hart, his wife
wasn't the one who caught him . It
was a reporter from a major newspaper. The effect tiiis had on his
campaign was something like what
happened to Hiroshima in WWII.
One would think that in light of
this incident, which cost a candidate
his campaign, the surviving Democrats would be much more careful
on issues involving their personal
integrity or morality.
Well, it appears now that another
Democrat has probably committeed
a political form of "hari-kiri." (He
has since withdrawn from the
campaign.) Week before last, Joe
Biden was in the spotlight. As
Judiciary Chairman of the Senate he
was going to be seen all over the
nation as the Bork hearings finally

began. Finally Biden felt he would
get the exposure his campaign so
dearly needed.
He got it, alright , but not the way
he wanted. It seems Joe had been
running around all summer quoting
people like Neil Kinnock, the leader
of the Labor Party in Britain, and
Robert F. Kennedy without telling
anyone who really used the words
that Biden was claiming as his own.

In other words, plagiarism. This
was bad enough, but someone
decided to look back at Joe's college
days. It seems Joe had almost gotten
booted out of Syracuse Law School
for plagiarizing a legal paper. Biden
quickly held a news conference to
dispel these unsettling revelations
about himself but he screwed up
again by confusing facts about his
college days.
He claimed, for instance, that he
received a scholarship to attend law

the form of floppy disks, magnetic
tape, or program listings on paper. It is
called software because it is much
easier to destroy if you've accidendy
placed it in your pocket.
A program is a series of statements
created by the human user in an attempt to get the computer to do something predictable.
A listing is a printed copy of the
program, requested by the user , to find
out why the program did not do what
was predicted.
When a program bombs, its frustration sensing device has successfull y
calculated which course of action will
cause the human operator the most
grief while being the hardest to track
down.
A hardware failure is what occurs
when the user has put his or her foot
through the computer 's monitor (see
program, listing, and bomb).
Structured programming is a
technique for creating computer programs. Its purpose is to restrict the
programmer to the most time-consuming and least efficient methods
available, in order to prevent the programmer from doing anything creative of innovative. Structured programming requires more computer
memory that the alternative (efficient
programming), which seems to be the
goal in most of today's software.
Structured programming was invented by the Nazis in World War II
when they ran out of new ways to
torture Allied prisoners of war.
A word processor is a type of program that allows an author to type
three entire chapters of text before
losing it all into the Nether Zone.
And now, if you'll excuse me, I'm
going to go indulge myself in a welldeserved nervous breakdown.

Controversy
plagues Bork

by Mary Thornton

L.A. Times-Washington Post Service

Traditionally the American Bar
Association 's judicial qualifications
committee has played a little-noticed
role in the confirmation of a Supreme
Court justice, placing the legal
profession 's imprimatur on nominees
and sending them on their way to
Senate approval.
When it came to considering Robert
H. Bork, the ABA found itself in the
midst of some unaccustomed controversy. Although the committee gave
Bork its highest rating of "well qualified ," the vote was not unanimous. Of
the committee's 15 members, 10
voted for thc rating, four described
Bork as "not qualified" and one member voted that he was "not opposed" to
the nomination.
Both Bork' s opponents and supporters seized on the vote, with the Jus
tice Department pointing out that he
had in fact won the ABA's approval
and the opponents citing the dissenting votes as evidence of major
concerns on the part of an establishment group.
This week the controversy over the
committee and its members erupted
publicl y when Harold Tyler, the
committee chairman , testified before
the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Sen. Orrin G. Hatch , R-Utah , a
leading Bork supporter, sharply critic
ized the dissenters, saying they opposed the nomination for "basicall y
political reasons" and adding that
several of them are liberals or affiliated with civil rights groups, particularly the Lawyers Committee forCivi l
Rights Under Law.
Tyler responded by defending the
integrity of the four members who vo
ted Bork "not qualified ," testifying
that , "I think they acted in good faith ."
Hatch's charge, voiced by other
conservatives in the aftermath of the
endorsement, focused attention on the
15 men who make up the committee
and their backgrounds.
Liberals have argued that the same
committee has voted unanimously lo
approve conservative judges, including Antonin Scalia, who was confirmed last fall for a Supreme Court
judgeship, and William H. Rehnquist,
who was confirmed as chief justice.
They say that the committee is balanced with conservatives and liberals,
and lhat Hatch himself has praised the
committee when its findings have
pleased him.
They have pointed particularly to
Hatch's statement last fall during the
Scalia confirmation hearing when he
said lo several members of the ABA
committee: "You deserve the highest
praise... . I cannot see any way that
there was any politics or partisanship,

or preferences, or any otner Kind ot an
approach that would be criticizable...
. I want to compliment you. You have
done this committee, the U.S. Senate
and the country a great service."
When the history of Bork's nomination is written, the ABA committee
members are likely to merit at least a
footnote. Here is a look at who they
are, beginning with the four identified
by sources as having voted against
Bork:
Jerome J. Shestack of Philadelphia ,
singled out by Hatch forcriti cism. He
is a Democrat who served during the
Carter administration as U.S. representative to the United Nations
Commission on Human Rights. He is
a former director of the Lawyers
Committee for Civil Rights Under
Law, the Mexican-American Legal
Defense Fund and the National Legal
Aid and Defender Association. He
also served as a member of the Democratic National Committee's Finance
Committee in 1975.
Shestack said that at the request ofa
client he made a contribution lasl

Prof tells Biden to 'go home

by Mike Feeley
Press-Enrerprise staff
Sen. Joseph Biden left a lasting
impression with Bloomsburg University political science professor James
Pcrcey after Biden 's visit to thc
school in Apri l 1984.
"Hc was a twit ," Percey said.
Biden , while speaking at a "mock
convention " at thc university,
stormed off the stage in the middle of
his speech, Percey said , apparentl y
upset because he did not get extra
money he requested.
"And because thc students were not
applauding his remarks, and there was
noise, he put on a temper tantrum and
left the stage," Percey said. "I felt we
should let him go, the hel with him.
But students official s invited him
back to the stage, and he finished his
speech."
Percey recalled the events Wednesday, the day the Democrat from Delaware ended his presidential campaign.
Biden had been invited to speak at
the BU convention and was offered a
51,000 honorarium and $500 in travel

money, Percey said. The day before
he was scheduled to speak, someone
from Biden 's staff called Percey and
said hc wanted S500 more.
"I told them lo go to hell," Percey
said. "They were quite irate. I felt he
was just trying to rip the students off
for anolher $500.

Market thrives in Yuppiedo m
by Ted Kistler
Staff Writer
There is a market segment in thc
automotive industry which caters to
the lead-footed driver who has to look
good, whether it 's at the local stoplight action or at thc country club.
These arc the personal luxury cars and
'88 looks like a boon for them. These
machines have power, styling and arc
also quite affordable.
The big entries arc thc Chevy
Monte Carlo, thc Ford Thundcrbird ,
and thc Mercury Cougar.Thc Monic
Carlo SS is thc last of a dying breed.
It 's got a small block motor , rearwheel drive , a flip-top air cleaner
and...lo and behold...a genuine four
barrel carburetor! Despite my general
disregard of Chevy products as reusable steel sources for Fords. I svill
truly be saddened to sec the passing of
thc Monte. It was scheduled to be
cancelled after '87 but was given one
more years ' reprieve. It is an ancient
car, primitive in its engineering and
heavier than most apartment houses.
but it 's lovable to a muscle-ear nut.
The SS has all ihe makin g 's of a
backyard mechanic s favorite dream.
Repairs arc straightforward *•<• i'h no
stupid turbos or other obstructions
which require degrees in computer
science to siet in the wav .

The base 305 performs admirably
under pedal pressure and leaves those
two beautiful black stripes on the
asphalt when your reputation is on the
line at thc local stoplight action .
Chevy has had a problem with the
final link in thc drivctrain , thc rear
end. Thc rumors I heard were confirmed at Raceway Park in Eng lishtown , NJ this summer when I saw an
'87 shear an axle. The axle flew out
from beneath with the tire attached.
Still , if you 're looking for something io goof witli on thc weekends,
this is the one to buy, unless you possess thc aforementioned degree in
computers. I like to view the SS as a
nice car ,but it would bc a lot nicer if
I could put a 12-Bolt Posi in the rear
and a worked 350 under thc hood.
Look closely at thc Monte, thc ideas
which dc«igncd it are being phased
out and it is doubtful they will ever
return to us.
On the other end of the spectrum arc
the ultra-modern , turbo-equi pped
Fomoco and Chrysler offerings. Thc
best of the bunch must bc the Thundcrbird Turbo Coupe.
Now , my heart and loyalties are
trul y with the Monte but I have to
admit that what we have here is a fine
creation. I like it even though it 's
equi pped witli a (gasp!) four cylinder.

Thc Thundcrbird , and its sister car, the
Mercury Cougar, have a potent little
2.3 litre turbo motor available which
can churn up the ground with thc besl
of them. If you remember thc lale
Mustang SVO, you may recall low
much acclaim its powcrplant drew.
Well , this is the same motor witli a few
years' improvement. Thc Turbo
Coupe is thc way to go out of this pair
if you arc the Hell-crazed , bent-onbrcaking-the-law type like -mc.
"Why? ," you may ask. Thc 'Bird and
thc Cougar arc basicall y identical ,
mechanically. Same chassis, same
powcrplant and even the same wide
rubber option. The idea , though , is thc
cost advantage of thc T'Bird and its
better aero numbers in the tunnel.
Styling is a personal thing...Bull ! Thc
T'Bird has it far and away. That front
end looks great on the streets, on thc
strips and on thc tracks.
It's thc winning combo for thc '80s .
Maybe I don 't like computers and fuel
injection in my cars, bul thc T'Bird
makes mc respect them.
Thc personal luxury market is thriving in yupp iedom. Don 't let their
styling or appearance deceive you ,
these cars have a lot to offer in driving
performance , luxury and the resultant
pleasure of ownership.

Rides , freakshows , agriculture
events , concerts- all attractions that
bring crowds to the Bloomsburg Fair.
But thc bi ggest attraction that draws
people to the fair- food.
There is something about the atmosphere of a fair that compels
people to gourgc themselves to the
point of feeling sick. Even thc most
well-behaved dieters can be found
with an ice cream cone in hand. And
even health nuts break down for the
occassional funnel cake. What 's even
more noteworth y is Uiat students who

complain about the greasy food in The
Commons, savor the fatty food found
at the fair.
Bul it 's not lhat there are so many
food stands around that tempt thc fairgoer, it 's that there are so many different kinds of foods to try - pizza , gyros,
egg rolls , cheese fries , etc. It's as if
some uncxplainable force, having
tempte d your taste buds , draws you
towards each stand. Thc fair in general is a pig's heaven , and each year I
find myself at the pearl y gates.
Last year I made the horrible mistake of venturing to the fair without
any money. Never again. I'd say it 's

almost masochistic to subject yourself to watching others feed their
faces. However , the next night I full y
compensated for my mistake. After
watching taffy being made for a good
hour , I ended up buy ing two boxes of
chocolate taff y.
Needless to say, most people find
themselves witli extra poundage al the
end of fair week. But thc pleasure
derived from tlie week long eating
spree far outwei ghs the disgust at
carry ing a little excess baggage. So
indulge, bul ge, and enjoy the fair
while it 's in town. After all , tlie
Bloomsburg Fair only happens once a

Pig heaven comes once a year

Bosh wins straw poll

by Missi Menapace
Staff Writer
Vice-President George Bush was
elected in a landslide victory over
Sen. Joe Biden in thc presidential
election two weeks ago. At least,
that 's what would have happened if
Dr. Chuck Jackson 's poll of four
political science classes had becn
the rea l thing.
His students overwhelmingly
favored the Republican party. Bush
led witli 172 points. Behind him
were Sen. Robert Dole (156), U.S
Rep. Jack Kemp (95) and Gen.
Alexander Haig (68).
In contrast , Biden led the Democrats with 66 points. Massachusetts
Governor Michael Dukakis re-

ceived 57 points, Rep. Dick
Gehphardt 50 and Rev. Jesse
Jackson 34.

Gary Hart led write-in candidates
with 20 points. Jackson noted that
three of the four classes were polled
the day after Hart's highly publicized appearance on Nightline with
Ted Koppel. Lt Col. Oliver North
recieved one vote, and President
Reagan was given a second place
vote. Jackson told the PressEnterprise, " I' m very gratified that
no one voted for Spuds MacKenzie."
Name recognition and where a
canidadate lives were two factors in
the poll. Bush has been highly

visablc as Vice-President for the
past seven years. Biden , who lives
in Dclcwarc and is orig inaly from
Scranton , is well-known in this area.
Jackson was interested in the poll
but cautioned tbat it doesn 't represent the enti re campus. Thc random
survey contained more underclassmen and arts and science majors the

concentrated in one age group and
geographical location.
Students ranked their firs t, second

Hooter 's latest album a bore

by Ken Kirsch
Staff Writer
Billy College jumps into his Gran d
Am lhat pop bought him especially for
his "formative " university years.
Now , as a thousand times before, he
slicks in his favorite U2 tape into his
custom Jensen tape deck. Billy drives
for 20 minutes. Thc tape pops out. As
he prepares lo flip the cassette over, hc
happens to glance at the front of the
tape.
"Wow , it 's not U2 at all , or even
INXS. Somebody purposedly slipped
thc new Hooters tape into my car,
man! Oh , lhat Joey, always playing
tricks on me—I'll get him yet. I know ,
I'll put a Whitesnake tape into his Led
Zeppelin collection, he'll never know
llie difference!"
Has this ever happened to you?
You ' re out for a night of partying with
your friends. All of a sudden you dislcover
'
someone switched tapes on you.
They wreak havoc with your cassette
collection. You 're loist, you 're confused. What will you do? What WILL
you do!
I don ' t know about you, but if someone did that to me , I'd send that new

Hooters tape, One Way Home , on a
one-way fli ght out the driver 's side
window. Philly 's gutsy band has bitten the dust; a victim of U2 Joshuatree
syndrome.
Gee, guys, it 's the '80"s, let's throw
together some pseudo-intelli gent lyrics, slow the music down to a dead
crawl , and try to look really serious on
the album cover, man. Ya know, like
reallly socially conscious and all?
"When the wars that men wage are
all through/ and their monuments put
on display! tell the hungry and
stranded! the poor empty-lianded
.we'll meet them on Wahshington ' s
Day." Excuse me while I yawn.
Eric Bazilian , Rob Hyman , and the
rest of the Hooters have added a few
new musical tricks to their act; an
accordion , a flute-tuned keyboard,
and even a little brass. Almost nonexistent from the record is the honer
melodica, or "hooter" for which the
band is named. But even these new
toys can 't hide the fact that the album
is a complete loss of perspective.
As with 1985's Nervous Nig ht, the
Hooters decided to revamp a classic in
order to draw the die-hard Philly

crowd to buy the new record . Their
remake of "Fightin ' on the same side"
is a total self-mockery. They 've
changed tlie lyrics, rearranged the
music , and in tlie process killed the
spirit of thc original version.
Another standout on the album is
the mild radio hit "Johnny B." Roll
over Chuck Berry—you loo Led
Zeppelin! The flute and mandolin
intro is such a blatant copy of "Stairway to Heaven" that I' m surprised the
Hooters didn 't get sued for plagarizing.

tory Theater.
At its Los Angeles presentation ,
it makes for a long three hours. The
dialogue, translated by Michael
Glenny, is stiff. The characters are
types: the grand old woman doctor
(Nan Martin), the blustering
general (Tom Rosqui), the poor
peasant woman (Nobu McCarthy),
the Holy Fool (Gregory Wagrowski). The device of setting them
down in a radiation clinic seems
just that.

For example, there's a scene
where Ben Piazza as the nuclear
stations director (it is never actually
identified as Chernobyl) predicts
that thc authorities will never put
him on trial . "They 'd have to try
too many others as well. It would
start a chain-reaction. "
As we know, there was a trial ,
and it was a public one. Perhaps
Gubas play hel ped to quash thc
natural temptation of thc Soviet bureaucracy to put Chernoby l "behind
us," as they say in Washington.
In any case, "Sarcophagus " is a
play that has had already some read
consequences.

Side two melts inlo a deluge of
repetition and severe amnesia. "One
Way Home" and "Washington 's Day
come together with the same lazy,
overdrawn choruses and chords,
while "Hard Rockin ' Summer" vainly
trys to rock us back into sensibility,
falling far short of its mark.
The only real Hooters rockers on
the album are "Satellite" and "Engine
999," two mediocre pieces reminiscienl of the kmore days.
But , alas, it seems those days are
gone forever...

A more adroit playwright would
either have focused on one or two
key characters, as Arthur Miller did
in "All My Sons," anolher play
investigating a disaster, or would
have frankly made this a trial play,
as Peter Weiss did in his play about
the Holocaust, "the Investigation."
"Sarcophagus" was written in 10
days. It shows.
But 10 days may have becn all
the time Gubaryev had. Perhaps hc
was giving something more than an
artistic imperative when he decided
to retell his news story in fictional
terms. Perhaps he was being very
practical.

Bushnell went overboard when
he described it as the "most
important play of tlie century ." But
it could bc the most significant play
of tlie 1980s, in thc sense lhat
"Uncle Tom 's Cabin" was lhc most
significant novel of the 1850s.
"So this is the little lady who
started the big war," Abraham
Linen supposedl y said lo Harriet
Beecher Stowe. Perhaps Gubaryev
will one day get credit for having
helped to forestall one.

Students captivated by Bandits

by Joe Cullinan
for the Voice
Fifties' "doo wop" music filled
Kehr Union last Wednesday ni ght as
JQ and the Bandits performed to a full
house.
JQ and the Bandits arc Micr-iel
Taranto,* lead singer of thc group;
Chris May, bass; David Montgomery,
bari tone; and Steven Katz, tenor.
The show featured a wide variety of
songs including some favorite fifties '
tunes Iikc "M y Little Darlin ',""Runaround Sue ," and "Ain 't That a
Shame." One young lady named
Tammy
had
"Sixteen
Cand'lcs "dcdicalcd to her.
Fifties ' music was notall this group
sang, however. Their repertoire included such Motown hits as "My
Girl" and "Under thc Boardwal k ,"
complete with their own improvised
instruments. Other songs included a
popular 1940' s hit , "Glow Worm"
and a barbershop quartet song, "Vive'
La Company."
Throughout thc show thc four never
seemed to stop moving. Their facial
expressions and body movements
always corresponded to the songs,
and their acts were flawlessly synchronized.

Taranto said, "The choreography is
done by us as an ensemble. We just get
together and work it out. There are a
lot of moves that just seem to go with
the songs, like the 'No, No, No" where
we shake our finger back and forth."
The acappella quartet gol their start
a little over a year ago when
Montgomery entered the group in a
talent show at Rutgers University ,
where they were majoring in acting,
and where the name of their group
originated. "We needed a name for the
entry blank , so we got together and
came up with the name 'JQ and the
Bandits.' It sounded really fifties and
seemed to go with the group. It really
doesn 't mean anything, " said
Taranto.
According to the group, friends
suggested that they sing on the streets
of New York City to earn some
money. Said Tara nto, "We said 'Why
not?' , and went up to New York to try
it out. We played at Greenwich Village, SoHo, South Street Sea Port places like that." Montgomery added ,
"That's where Levi's discovered us."
Levi's offered them an audition ,
and then asked them to do a commercial for 501 jeans. After tlie commercial , things started moving. One ofthe

They are a different breed, those
Porsche owners. Wilh a devil-maycare attitude , they think nothing of
slipping into a gleaming, sleek car,
zooming off into thc night , with all the
power and grace of an angry leopard .
Dee Broadt , a secretary from New
Columbia , has owned her sable brown
metallic 944 for one year.
She likes her 1983 model because it
looks good and handles great at fast
speeds. Ils cruising speed is 80 to 90
mph.
"My Porsche has its fun side," she
says. "People think right away, you're
rich. There's some jealousy until they
realize it's the only thing you own."
Her son Trevor has owned his minerva blue metallic 1975 911 for two
years. His best memory of his car is

test-driving the car at 140 mph.
There is a difference between the
older and newer Porsches. Trevor
says, "The older ones will always run ,
get you to where you 're going, but it 's
completely mechanized , compared to
today 's cars, which have a lot of electronics. My car always runs, but it's a
question of how well."
Dee said she was surprised at how
expensive the parts were. "Everything
has to be specially ordered ."
Also, Porsches are a problem in the
winter. Because ofthe snow and rain ,
the older models have a propensity to
rust, so the underside must be washed
frequently.
For Trevor, one disadvantage is that
"older models force you to become a
mechanic. Plan on spending more
money on your Porsche than you
would expect. There's almost always

promotional tour where they performed at stores and malls across the
country, in New York clubs and in
opening acts for such comedians as
David Steinberg and Sinbad.
They also made a music video for
MTV , and recently took first place in
the "MTV Basement Tapes" contest.
"Bandits of Love" was the first original song the group has done with
musical accompaniment. Says Katz ,
"Wc were on MTV for about a month
because of that song."
Plans for the future include more
touring and possibly a record .
"Warner Brothers has been talking to

Singer Rita Lydon perform s at PCM

by Laura Specht
Staff Writer
Rita Lydon, a senior English major
at Bloomsburg University, performed
a concert at the Protestant Campus
Ministry house on Friday, September
25.
Lydon concentrates on performing
popluar folk music, but she also enjoys writing and singing her own
music.
"I really like the idea of performing
my music in concert," says Lydon.
"Especially with an audience that's
really laid back."
The Philadelphia native began
playing guitar approximately nine
years ago when she took weekly lessons at her grammar school. Her inter-

est in music has intensified since then.
Lydon started performing at PCM
at the suggestion of Rev. Greg Osterburg, who is currently spending this
semster in New Zealand as part of a
ministry exchange. Besides her three
concerts at the PCM, Lydon has performed at the Kehr Union Coffeehouse and at the Renaissance Jamboree.
Friday 's perform ance included
songs such as Joanie Mitchell's "Both
Sides Now," Crosby, Stills, and
Nash's "Teach Your Children," a
sing-a-long of Bob Dylan 's "Blowin '
in the Wind ," and Neil Young's
"Comes a Time."
"The Neil Young songs I sing are
my favorite," says Lydon.

Problematic Cigarettes?
by Jozsef Horvath

Now it's only a matter of time and a
brand new innovation will replace a
variety of old-fashioned cigarettes.
With smokeless being tested and
publicized, we are likely to be confronted with a phenomenon unheardof: people will not smoke while actually smoking.
Language itself will have to find a
way out of this paradox.

sorts are at our disposal. What can
come out of that situation. People
eager to give up smoking may brag
about that they 've succeeded after all.
"Look," they 'll say proudly to their
friends, "I' m not smoking. This cigarette is not smoking. I'm simply puffing this tiny little rod in order to inhale
an appropriate amount of nicotine."
Conservatives, by contrast, will
look down on those commited to
smokeless cigarettes, and the controversy between smokers and antiSuppose there'll be a period of time smokers is apt to become even more

Lydon also performed a few of her
own compositions: "Crystal Lady,"
which deals with the inner fragility of
peoples' spirits, "For So Many
Days,"and a song called "See You
Again," which is dedicated to the
meaningful people in a person 's life.
In addition to the busy concert
schedule, Lydon is president of the
English Club, works for the campus
coordinator and participates in Quest
courses whenever possible.
Although she remains busy with her
music and hobbies, her main concentration is English. "Music will always
be a hobby, but it will not be a living,"
said Lydon. "Maybe a concert now or
then ."

NFL players strike

Fans Held Hostage:Day 7

Free agency comes full circle

by Ruskin Mark
Staff Writer
A week ago tonight the New England Patriots lost to the New York
Jets in a game seen live on national
television. The final score is not as
important today as the fact that at
the sounding of the final whistle,
signaling the end of the game, the
NFL players went on , strike one
more time.
Yes, 1600 men whose average
salary is $230,000 annuall y, actually have a labor grievanee. They
contend that they are the onl y ones
in America who are unable to voluntaril y choose where they wish to
work. They would like, what's affectionally called "unfettered freeagency," the disallowing of teams
from retaining first refusal rights
but no compensation if the player
moves.
Management, naturally, would
like to retain first-refusal rights,
while offering to lower compensation levels for free-agents. Al-

though there are other pressing issues
like severance pay, pensions, drug
testing and guaranteed contracts, the
big one seems to be free agency.
Now, the issue of free-agency is a
privilege the Union had back in 1976
but traded it away for better working
conditions and benefits. Ironically,
the mai n issue again deviding both
sides is the same free-agency. Where
do these people get off?
Couldn 't cooler heads have prevailed and worked towards a satisfactory settlement beneficial to both
sides? Wh y didn 't the Commissioner
intervene earlier and arbitrate the
proceedings towards rectifying differences and avoid the strike? He
never acted and both parties drifted
further apart culminating in the present strike. As for strikes, I am of the
opinion that they no longer have the
affect on proceedings they once did.
The fans , on the other hand , always
seem to lose in these situations , but in
reality, a fall Sunday afternoon without bone-crushing tackles, high

arched spirals, and an over-indulgance in gatorade, does not constitute
cultural short circuitry. Also, I do not
believe that they are backing the players in this strike, and just like in 1982,
they may stay away in protest , if and
when the season resumes.
Owners have agreed to issue refunds to ticket holders if they so desire, or season ticket holders can surrender their tickets for the 1988 season without losing seat placement.
The networks are obligated to carry
games even during the strike, but may
have to refund advertisers. Paradoxically, the owners are prepared to use
free-agents and non-striking veterans
on teams, and continue playing. Wait,
wasn't the issue of free-agency the
main reason for the present strike?
How soon we forget.
That the strike is on is a fact. That it
could have been avoided is also a fact.
When will it come to an end? Your
guess is as good as mine. But for now
it is a big hello to college football and
baseball's pennant races.

Scott Ostler
The Los Angeles Times
No, that was not God weeping
Wednesday morning, mourning the
opening day of the National Football League's midseason preseason
training camp.
I suspect He has more important
matters to look in on these days, like
famines and baseball pennant races.
What we got in Los Angeles was
just a regular rainstorm.
No owners, players, scabs or fans
were struck by lightning, so apparently the man upstairs isn 't taking
sides yet, either.
We are on our own, then , and we
might as well settle in and enjoy the
world's strangest strike, during
which several things are sure to
happen.
For starters, the striking players

will become scab-ball fan s, out of
necessity. The Los Angeles Rams'
destiny, for instance, will be in the
hands of the Ramscabs. If the
Ramscabs become a scab dynasty for
two or three games, the real Rams will
benefit enormously when the strike is
settled.
A bad scab team can knock your
real team out ofthe box before the real
players ever lace up another cleat.
Therefore , the better a team pickets,
the more threatening and intimidating
they are walking the line, the better
their chances of going back to work in
last place.
The players cannot admit this,but it
will be much to their benefit to let the
best ringer-scabs slip through the
picketline. If I were the Rams strikers,
for instance, I would send my toughest, most violence-prone picketers to

San Francisco to walk the 49ers line,
in a gesture of brotherhood.
In New York, there will be unrest on
the Giants' picket line, as book publishers put pressure on the team 's
several author-athletes.
It is bad enough for book sales when
you start your season 0-2. But when
you 're 0-2 and on strike, there aren't
many people clamoring to read the
Lawrence Taylor memoirs.
Someone will explain to the players
that the free agency demand is not
worth dying for, not if free agency
means simple freedom to choose
where you work. The president of the
United States is not a free agent. His
job is specialized. If he wants to be a
president ofa nation , he is pretty much
limited to living .and working in
downtown Washington .
Generally speaking, the more spe-

Ostler on Sports: Scab games will be boring, except for striking players

New degree program offe red [
in adult health at Bloomsburg
Bloomsburg University has instituted a new degree program in Adult
Health designed to train students for
careers in the growing health and
fitness fields.
The impetus for the new major was
derived from the reality of changing
demographics in the United States.
Statistics provided by the Census
Bureau indicate that the elderly are a
rapidly growing segment of the population
As a result, a primary objective of
the program is to foster an understanding of human development, the aging
process, and the physiological
changes which accompany aging.
An important adjunct of this study
is the acquisition of skills related to
the principles of fitness and wellness,
including the development and application of exercise prescriptions and
programs for adults and elderly individuals.
To meet this objective, students
majoring in Adult Health are challenged by an interdisciplinary curriculum that includes courses in the
humanities,physical education, allied
health and biological sciences, psychology and sociology.
An integral component of the major

dence. An important factor of the
improvement has been the maturation
of doubles play.
"I'm pleased with the progress we
have made, thus far. The players are
beginning to implement some of the
things stressed in practice into their
garnes," Herbert said.
This week's schedule takes the
women to Lock Haven on Monday,
followed by home matches with
Kutztown on Wednesday, East
Stroudsburg on Thursday ahd Millersville on Saturday.
Sophomore Wendy Wenhold and
freshman Chris Labosky lead the
team with records of 4-2 and 5-1 respectively.

and explai n to them that they are
expendable. According to the Jim
Bouton Theory , owners are as vital to
pro sports as valet parking at the stadium.
What would happen if the players
on one team pooled their resources,
bought the team and divided up the
profits? Or if a city bought a team and
ran it as a non-profit organization?
Whatever profits would normally
go to the owner would be divided up a
mong the players. Salaries, and therefore team morale and performance,
would soar sky-high. Owners as we
know them today would soon become
extinct.
Thc scab games will be enormously
entertaining... to the striking pl ayers.
Games will tend to look like football
blooper shows. Plays will be drawn in
the huddle , in thc dirt. Coaches will

slam a lot of headsets to the turf.
Most team meetings will begin
with, "This is a football ... "
Play will be either incredibly
sloppy or profoundly boring, or
bolh. In other words, the games will
be exactly like the negotiating sessions.
In the end , the settlement will be
a matter of supply and demand. If
fans demand pro football and the
owners and players do not supply it,
the fans will take their business to
another store.
Is that the World Series I hear
around the corner? College football? NBA and NHL training
camps?
We willl all keep busy, and you
owners and players let us know
when you are ready to come out
and play.

is the completion of an internship in
an adult or elderly setting.
The purpose of the internship is to
provide an opportunity to put the
skills and knowledge acquired into
practice.
An additional purposre is to help
students focus their interests in the j
adult health field.
j
Since students graduating from the 1
program will be prepared to pursue [
employment in medical facilities,
wellness centers, corporate settings,
and wherever organized programs for ' .
adults and the aged exist.
Alternatively, graduate options for
interested students include master's ,
degrees in gerontology, cardiac rehabilitation, or physician's assistant
,
programs.
In an effort to provide the university
community with pertinent information regarding health and wellness
issues, the VOICE will carry a column
to answer health-related questions by
faculty, staff , and students.
.
All inquiries may be sent to Dr.
Linda LeMura in Nelson Field House.
Students in the adult health major will
try to answer as many questions as
possible with current information
from the health and wellness litera,
ture.

Women's tennis team
dominates Scranton

by Mike Mullen
Sports Editor
A fast improving women 's tennis
team that coach "Doc" Herbert is
"pleased with" had a tough match
against Division I Penn State but easily handled Scranton University as
they kept their season record even at
3-3.
The women travelled to University
Park and were outmatched by the PSU
powerhouse, losing 9-0.
On Saturday, the Huskies were off
to Scranton University and downed
the Royals 9-0.
Herbert believes the team is beginning to improve and the freshmen are

other teams, unless you want to jump

Being forced to spend a few winters
of one's lifein Buffalo, N.Y., or Philadelphia for $300,000 per winter ranks
extremely low on the public sympath y
scale.
If players want freedom to work
anywhere they wish , they might consider switching careers, to something
like restroom maintainance.
Besides, if free agency is so valuable, why did the players sell it back to
the owners when the courts gave it to
them last time?

Everyone was hungry for a victory
over nationally ranked West Chester, but thc Rams made it clear that
they earned their ranking as they
dominated thc Huskies with a 39-14
win.
Thc Huskies were on the scoreboard first when , in thc first quarter ,
Tom Martin scampered two yards
on an option from DcDca lo give BU
their first touchdown. Chris
Mingronc 's kick was good and
Bloomsburg led 7-0.
From tliere it was all West Chester
as the Rams rattl ed of 24 straight
points to put the Huskies away for
good..
Although thc Rams started slowly
with a John Marotta 27 yard field
goal lo cut thc Husky lead to 7-3,
West Chester continued to work and
as thc quarter went on thc Rams
appeared more determined to win .
Before the half ended ihey managed
to get two more touchdowns and led
the Huskies 17-7.
The second half opened as the first
one ended , with a Ram score. Bill
Hess hauled in a 58 yard pass from Al
Ncimcla to put the game out of reach
at 24-7.
The Huskies came back after thc
score with a surge of energy. Jeff
Sparks snagged a 33 yard pass fro m

down. The kick was good making the
score 24-14.
From there thc Ram s decided to get
serious and pushed their way into the
Huskies goal line two more limes.
First on a Nicmcla 5 yard pass to Scott
Alsman and then on a 2 yard run by
Todd Madison.
Sandwiched between thc two
touchdowns was a safety. This resulted in thc final score of 39-14.
With thc clock ticking down in the

last quarter thc Huskies tried to keep
on top of thc ball. This wasn't thc
easiest thing to do because thc Rams
were a hard-headed team that wasn 't
going to let thc Huskies back in thc
game.
Tlie day was a hard one for Jay
Dcdca getting sacked by tlie WCU
defense 10 limes for 67 yards and a
safety. However, hc did manage to
keep thc ball in the air for 210 yard s on
a 20-47* performance. HE was inter-

cepted only once.
The Huskies were tired at the end of
thc third quarter and the BU defense
had tlieir hands lull wilh Nicmela who
passed for 218 yards (15-25 no interceptions) and with the West Chester
backs rushing down field for 176
yards for thc day. Jason Sims h'.d 114
of those yards.
This week tlie tluskics meet the
Warriors of East Stroudsburg. Thc

Bloomsburg High School Panthers Bloomsburg wrestling team readies
rebound with win over Lewisburg for new season with some old faces
by Heather Abell
Staff Writer
Friday
ni ght
the
Bloomsburg Panthers became airborne and left the
Lewisburg Green Dragons
on the ground as they went
onto defeat Lewisburg by the
impressive score of 36-15.
Running back Jamie Gutshall lead the Panthers in
scoring and proved that he 'll
be a force to reckon with this
year. He scored three touchdowns for the Panthers , the
last of which was on a seventy yard run in the last period of the game
One of the factors which

helped the Panthers win was the
throwing arm of senior quarterback Jeff Fornwald. Fornwald
threw for over 101 yards and
one of those throws was to Glen
Millard in the endzone near the
end of the second period. Keith
Bailey put the finishing touches
on the play by completing the
two-point conversion.
Senior Tom Pursel was also
one of the reasons for
Bloomsburg 's successful airiel
attacks. He coug ht three passes,
two of which set up Jamie
Gutshall' s three yard run into
the endzone during the first
period of play. Pursel also
converted four single extra

points.
Erick Estrada scored the
other touchdown on a two
yard run in the first period.
Both ofthe Green Dragon 's
touchdowns came in the
fourth period. Lewisburg 's
quarterback Steve Thomas
ran into the endzone from the
two yard line for their first
touchdown. The other touchdown was an exciting run by
halfback Jim Neidi g. He ran
91 yards for Lewisburg ' s last
touchdown.
This win makes the
Panther 's record 2-2 overall
and 1-1 in their conference.
