Senator Heflin
swavs nosition

Sen. Howell Heflin sat through an
hour and more of fervent speechmaking by his colleagues Tuesday
with his chin in his hand , gazing
glumly at the room's 12-foot-tall
double doors Iike*a man who longed
to walk through them.
For weeks, the Alabama Democrat had described himself as "completely neutral" and "unequivocably
undecided" and "leaning straight
up" when asked his views on
whether Robert Bork should be
confirmed as associate justice of the
Supreme Court. By Tuesday afternoon he was the only member of the
Senate Judiciary Committee who
hadn 't declared his intentions.
But now , he finally had decided to
oppose Bork , a vote that sharpened
the nominee 's loss in committeeand
undercut , probabl y for good , the
White House's "Southern strategy"
to win Bork' s confirmation before
the full Senate.
"If Heflin goes with us , at least
we're interested in keeping it boiling " and continuing the fight , an
edgy White House strategist said
just before the committee convened .
"If Heflin goes against us," he
added , "we've got a problem."
The administration had hoped to
use the support of Heflin-a cautious
politician known to other senators
as "the judge" because of the years
he headed the Alabama Supreme
Court- to help lure a dozen undecided conservative Southern Democrats into backing the nominee.
Instead , Tom Korologos, the lobbyist who helped manage the White
House campaign , conceded , "A lot
of them will follow Heflin " to oppose Bork .
Ral ph Neas, the civil ri ghts activist who helped manage the opposition , agreed .
Ronald Reagan received 61 percent of the vote in Alabama in 1984 ,
a popularity rating the White House

had banked on in calculating its strategy. But they hadn 't counted on another voting statistic, from 1986:
Democrat Richard Shelby had defeated the stale's incumbent Republican senator through the heavy support of black voters.
For Shelby and three other new
Southern Democratic senators , a
strong black turnoul meant victory
last year, and black leaders from
Alabama and fro m national organizations opposing Bork had lobbied
Heflin hard .
Concern s about Bork' s view on the
right to privacy struck a particular
resonance with Heflin , who said he
was "in a state of quandary as to
whether this nominee would be a
conservative justice (or) ... an extremist who would uschis posilion on
the courl to advance a far-right , radical , judicial agenda."
The decision obviousl y had not
been an easy one, and afterwards
Heflin said it was possible , though
not likely, that he could be persuaded
to change his vote before the full
Senate considers the issue.
Back home in Alabam a, he had
written out formal statements explaining decisions to vote for Bork , to
vote against Bork and to vote to send
Bork 's nomination to the full Senate
with no recommendation at all. When
he was interviewed on the Today
show Tuesday morning, he said onl y
to "stay tuned , stay tuned ," for his
decision.
Even when the president telephoned later in the day, trying three
times before the two finall y connected , the senator did not say what
he would do.
But when die hcavysci Heflin
lumbered into the Senate Caucus
Room for the meeting, die onl y
speech in his coat pocket was the
version that noted the adage , "When
in doubt , don 't," andconcluded: "Because of my doubts at this time and at
this posture of die confirmation process. I must vote no."

Black enrollment
falls short of goals

by Bill Giorgini
Staff Writer
Bloomsburg University failed to
meet the goals mandated by the federal government for the number of
black students enrolled this semester.
Thomas Cooper, dean of enrollment management, said that BU was
almost a full percentage below the
4.45 percent goal that was approved
by the Office of Civil Rights of the
U.S. Department of Education. Cooper said, "In extreme cases the Civil
Rights Office could withhold federal
support from this institution. This is
unlikely, however, any action they
choose to take is totally at their discretion."
In Pennsylvania only one out 14
state universities was able to meet its
goal this year. Cooper repeated his
comment that appeared in the Press
Enterprise on Sept. 28, "The real
problem is increased competition
with other schools."
Cooper said that when competition

The House and Senate bills were
dra fted in response to the Iranian
mining of the Persian Gulf as well as
to a recent Department of Commerc e
report indicating that U.S. imports of
Iranian oil had increased sharply in
recent months.
According to the department , the
United Stales imported S819 million
worth of Iranian oil in the first seven
months of this year, compared to
S498 millio n in 1986.
In addition to oil , the United
States imports rugs , pistachio nuts
and some other goods from Iran.
Sales to the United States still represent a very small fraction of Iran 's
exports.
The import ban would not affect
U.S. exports to Iran , mostly low-tcch
nology manufactured goods, which
totaled about $32 million in 1986.
In representing the administration
during the House Foreign Affairs
Committee's discussion of the bill ,
Paul Frecdcnberg, acting Department of Commerce undersecretary
for export administration , expressed
skepticism about the bill.

He noted that a similar ban imposed on Libya 's oil exports by the
administration had no impact on that
nation.
An embargo on Iranian imports , he
told reporters , "would be more a
profound moral statement than an
effective cutoff of their exports. "
Likewise, Rep. Lee Hamilton , DInd., said the embargo could damage
of forts by an international tribunal in
The Hague to settle some S20 billion
to S30 billion in outstanding claims
between Iran and the United States.
He also argued that the import ban
mi g ht undermine die United Suites '
claim thai it is neutral in the Iran-Iraq
war.
U.S. claims against Iran now pending in The Haugc stem from the 1979
takeover of Iran by Islamic fundamentalists and the confiscation of
plants and facilities owned by U.S.
companies.
F'rccdcnbcrg said the administration is weighing what impact an
import ban would would have on
U.S. claims against Iran.

accomplish anything."

"What attracts a white studen t to
come here is the same thing that attracts a minority student,"said Cooper
who gave examples such as good
academic programs, high retension
rate, attractive facilities, and resonable costs.
On the other hand Cooper did say
that BU has a specific recruitment
program for minorities such as the use
of black students and employees here.
For recruitment in 1988, Cooper
said there will be more stress put on
the communities, "We are going to put
more emphasis in working with the
community leaders and the church
leaders because they are a big part of
the minori ty community."

Financial troubles still plague television ministry
by Jack Sirica

LA. Times-Washington Post Service

The Rev. D. James Kennedy of the
Coral Ridge Ministries in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., had been testifying
about how the financial scandals at
PTL ministries were aberrations in
the otherwise honest world of TV
evangelism.
But Kennedy raised his voice and
launched into an emotional discourse when he came to the subject of
whether the Internal Revenue Service should monitor the ministries
more closely.
"The power to tax is the power to

destroy, and what I think we're seeing here is a dangerous intermeddling," Kennedy told a House Ways
and Means oversight subcommittee
Tuesday.
"Amen . Amen,"said the Rev. Jerry
Falwell, who was waiting to testify.
"That's good preaching, Jim."
With the scandals at PTL as the
backdrop, those who preach over the
airwaves clashed with those who can
change the nation 's tax laws during a
hearing on whether the IRS is tough
enough on the nation 's TV preachers.
Democratic members of the
committee suggested that the PTL

scandals showed that the IRS was too
lax or that the laws do not require
adequate disclosure.
IRS commissioners say that the
First Amendment and lax laws restrain them from investi gating ministries as aggressively as they do nonreli gious groups. And evangelists
such as Falwell and the Rev. Oral
Roberts argued that the IRS already
is performing creditably.
The IRS categorizes all ministries, including thoseon television , as
either "churches" or "religious organizations." Although each category is tax-exempt, churches have

die added benefit of being free of
annual financial disclosure requirements.
Rep. Charles Rangel, D-N.Y., told
IRS Commissioner Lawrence Gibbs
lha t "what you 're saying here is that
people can solicit millions of dollars
and you have no way of accounting to
the federal government."
Both Roberts ' and Falwell's
groups must file annual reports,
while Ke nnedy 's does not.
Gibbs emphasized in a statement
that "the rules pertaining to church es
are very difficult to administer." He
said that was true "not only because

of the sensitive legal and constitutional questions of interpretation that
we are regularly required to make,
but because the service does not ha ve
ready access to basic information that
provides the foundation for our examination program of both taxable
and other non-taxable organizations."
Falwell, who called the PTL scandal a "major Watergate for New
Testament Christianity," suggested
that new self-policing mechanisms
set up by the National Religious
Broadcasters might do more to guard
against future abuses.

A societal dilemma

Fighting and physically weak

Editor ' s note: This was written by a
student of this university.
Dear Mom ,
It 's me again. I am now a senior at
Bloomsburg Univers ity, but you
know that. What you don 't know mom
is that college is teaching me many of
the same values you did;dioncsty, integrity, respect for and acceptance of
odiers , dili gence in all dial I want to
pursue , self-respect , and much more.
Many times I argued with you when
you explained that I , as a female , will
naturally be subjugated. You said
society has operated this way since the
days of Adam and Eve. I despised
these words and without an official
sanction , began my journey to liberate

women. You also to'd me to remember that if I ever found myself fighting
for a principle , I would usually be
alone in the struggle. I told you that
you were not giving people the benefi t
of the doubt. Today, mom , I feel the
need to tell you how ri ght you arc. I
wonder how many of my colleagues
ignored thcirparents the way I ignored
your and dad' s words? I have been
unable to tell you much that college
taught me because I did not think you
would understand.
Recently mom , I have been involved in the legal system but I could
not tell you because I am your "little
girl. " No , the little girl is now a young
lady. Mom , I am fi ghting...I am all

alone. Mom , I am fighting to defend
my ph ysical weakness as a women. I
realize now that if I had been a man ,
like my brothers , I would not be in this
situation. My opponent would have
been on the door instead. 'This pain
that I now feel would have been
stabilized. Yes, mom , I can understand the subjagation of women now
with a cold tremor. But the fight is
onl y beginning.
Yes, I need your unconditional love
to sec me throug h . Gosh , It would
have been so much easier to have just
listened to you. On the average , I have
at least another 48 years to live. Mom ,

Era of Watergate refo rm now being reversed

LA. Times-Washington Post Service

It 's business as usual in the
nation 's Capitol. Once, Watergate
was a gaudy apartment and office
comp lex along the Potomac River .
Then , after it gained fame for
spawning the worst political scandal
in the nation 's history, it became
identified with the "post-Watergate
era ," marked by a zeal for honest and
open government and for shared responsibility between the White
House and Congress.
But now those efforts to make
government officials more accountable and to avoid another "Watergate" are history.
The robust drive for political reform enveloping Washington more
than a decade ago has been reversed.
And the broad package of laws designed to cleanse the process during
the 1970s is being largel y ignored
and undermined.
Perhaps the chief cul prit is the
Reagan administration , less than a
citadel of ethical purity. But responsibility extends across-the-board , to a
weak Congress and to Democrats
whose virtues are also often suspect.
The post-Watergate era was
largely a reaction to secrecy at the
highest levels in government , not
only in the infamous cover-up of the
burglary at the Democratic National
Committee but also in more routine
federal operations.

Despite their shortcomings , each
acted to make government more responsive to the public interest , such
as restricting covert operations by the
Central Intelli gence Agency and hiring an attorney general with stronger
legal credentials.
Congress passed a package of
laws, not all of them directly connected to Watergate , that showed a
desire for more orderl y process.
A scries of events within the past
few weeks shows how those changes ,
as a whole, have become a dead letter.
In 1973, Congress enacted , over
President Nixon 's veto , the War
Powers Resolution , designed to
avoid a repetition of the Korean and
Vietnam conflicts where tens of thousands of American lives were lost
without an explicit congressional
decision to declare war.

It was an attempt to reverse the
"imperial presidency," which haci
been mushrooming for several decades, and to restore a proper balance
with Congress.
In some ways, the changes were

But Reagan rejected their demand ,

Once again Congress has decided
that it wants to be 'Commander-inChief and run the forei gn policy of

Constitution says.
One of the duties of the executive
branch is to negotiate and secure treaties with forei gn nations. The treaty is
then brought before Congress and die
Senate must either ratify or nullify the
agreement. A good example is the
SALT II Treaty signed by tiien President Jimmy Carter in 1979 and rejected by a Democratically controlled
Senate .
However , with the passage of the
Senate 's Defense Authorization Bill
last Friday, it now seems that Congress also wants to negotiate a treaty

by prevenung ihe President fro m
conducting his own foreign policy.
The Defense Bill , passed by the
Senate , would enforce a strict interpretation of the 1972 Anti-Ballistic
Missile Treaty. This would prevent
many crucial tests needed to develop
the Strategic Defense Initiative program.
Adding insult to injury, die bill also
forces the Defense Department to
abide by the numerical limits of the
unratified SALT II agreement.
With the prospect of upcoming
arms control negotiations with the
Soviets these measures will seriously
handicap President Reagan 's hand in
negotiating. The incredible irony of
this is that these provisions in the bill
play right into the hands of the Soviets.

The law has become something of
a joke. Aside fro m the awesome deficits still mounting in the federal treasury, the budget process itsel f is out of
kilter. Deadlines are i gnored. Budget
numbers arc fudged. Responsibility

The public 's view of all this is
ambivalent. But one instructive less

Arms control : Congress plays President

Abortion: Not merely a matte r of pro or against

by Scott Davis
Guest Columnist
As I walked around the campus last
week, I heard a group of students discussing the issue of abortion.
The two most common words to be
mentioned were 'pro-choice' and
'pro-life. '
The 'pro-choicers ' supported their
side with phrases like , "It's her body
and she should have a control over it."
Rarely, however, did they mention the
rights of the embryo or fetus.
As a matter of fact , the 'prochoicers ' seemed to believe that the
fetus was not a human, th us had no
rights.
The 'pro-lifers' attacked the 'prochoicers' with phrases like "She knew
what she was doing when she became

pregnant. They also argued that a
fetus was a human being, thus should
be protected by human rights.
Neither side would give in to the
other. Not one agreement was made.
'Pro-choicers' said abortion should be
a lawful choice of the female. The
'pro-lifers ' said abortion is murder
and should be oudawed.
After the argument ended , I went
back to my room and reviewed the
argument. Many good points were
brought up by both sides. Of course,
the points of one side never reached
the other.
After a long mental argument of my
own , I decided where I stand. I am a
'pro-situationalist.' If you never heard
of this view of abortion, it is because I
have just discovered it.

The idea behind pro-situation is to
look at the situation of each pregnant
woman. To say a woman knew what
she was doing when she became pregnant may be wrong. What if the pregnancy is the result of a rape? What if
doctors conclude that having the baby
will result in the mother 's death? (Did
she know she was killing herself when
she became pregnant?)

'Pro-lifers' will condemn my line of
thinking. They will say nothing makes
the mother 's life more important than
the unborn fetus. They will tell me that
justbecauseababyis theresultofrape
does not mean it shouldn 't live. My
response to 'pro-lifers ' is don 't talk
about things you can 't understand
until you have been there.

At this point in my column , 'prochoicers ' are probably ready to applaud. Well , you had better not applaud yet. If the situation is unacceptable, the fetus should live no matter
what the mother wants.
A few situations I find unacceptable
to terminate include unwanted pregnancies, illegitimate/teenage pregnancies , and 'right to get married '
pregnancies.
Society has so embedded in us the
belief that there are only two stances
on the issue. I do not wish to convince
you that my belief about abortion is
correct. I simp ly ask you to look at the
entire picture and develop your own
opinion. I think you will be surprised
to see how many people will agree
with what you think.

Amish fear for lifesty le
Andrew Kinsingcr , a hearty man of
florid features , is an unofficial lay
leader of the Amish , a retiring and
austere sect that has tilled land in
Pennsylvania 's Lancaster County for
more than two centuries.
It is fertile , gentl y slop ing land ,
through which the state says it may
want lo build a limited-access, fourlane dioroughfare. Kinsingcr was in
quiet conversation on his front porch
the odicr night , discussing what is to
the Amish a troubling prospect.
From lime to lime, Kinsingcr , 66,
had to break off the discussion , unwilling lo speak above the shrill rush
of traffic on the narrow road a few
yards from his home.
From beyond a low ridge not far off
came the steady rumble of trucks
grinding along U.S. 30 through the
southern reaches of Amish country in
prosperous Lancaster County.

U.S. allies seek defense plan

by A drian Peracchio

LA.Times-Washington Post Service

As die two superpowers move
toward a long-awaited arms-control
agreement, three of the United
States' key West European allies are
beginning to forge tighter military
links to bolster their defense.
France and West Germany, historically rivals in the best of times and
bitter enemies in the worst, have
moved to set up a joint defense council that would deepen France 's
commitment to helping to maintain
its neighbor 's security.
At the same time , Britain and
France have scheduled a scries of
talks aimed at exploring the possibility of cooperating on the nuclear
defense of each other 's terri tory. The
two nations are the only NATO allies
that maintain an independent nuclear
force under their own control.
The moves come at a time when
Western European allies are feeling
particularl y insecure about the ef:

:

fects of die prospective U.S.-Soviet
treaty that would remove all intcrmcdiaie-range nuclear missiles from
Europe. Defense anal ysis say that if
the talks are successfu l, they may
lead to a subtle realignment of the
three countries' relationshi ps with
the United States.
"Increasingly, Europeans feel they
must look to themselves for future
defense needs, because what suits the
forei gn-policy aims of the United
States may actual ly conflict with
their own interests," a Western European diplomat said. "These talks may
be the beginning of a general reassessment of European relationships
witii the Uniied States."
George Younger, Britain 's secretary of state for defense, alread y has
met with French Defense Minister
Andre Giraud to discuss forming
links between the two countries '
independent nuclear forces. The two
men , who met late last month , now
are planning a series of regular talks
on the issue.

'

Eugene Hascnfus , the American
mercenary who was shot down on a
supply mission to U.S.-backed rebels
in Nicaragua , has filed a $35 million
lawsuit against his form er employers, claiming they left him broke and
alone to face mounting legal bills and
a hostile public .
The lawsuit , filed this week in Los
Angeles Superior Court , names IranContra figures Richard V. Secord and
Albert Hakim and three corporations
that Hascnfus claims employed him
with the government 's backing to
deliver arms to Nicaragua.
Hascnfus said in his lawsuit he was
induced to begin flying the dangerous missions based on representations that the company that hired him ,
Corporate Air Services, was run
"right out the back door of the White
House."
But both the U.S. government ,
againsl whom Hascnfu s plans to file
a separate claim , and Corporate Air
Services have backed down on promises to pay the tens of thousands of
dollars in expenses Hascnfus and his
famil y incurred during his three
months in captivity in Nicaragua, the
suit alleges.
"There 's no question that he's been
the brunt of the entire scandal ," said
his attorney, Brian R. Strange.
"They 're in terrible financial condition , they 're about to lose ihcir house ,
they 're getting threats to their children at school. ... I think their lives are
shattered.
Hascnfus, 46, of Marinette , Wis.,
was the lone survivor of a C-123 transport plane shot down last October
over southern Nicaragua while try ing
to drop arms to the rebels. Three other
crewmen , two of them Americans ,
died in the crash , while Hasenfus
parachuted to safety.
Hascnfu s announced after his arrest that the operation was one of 10
he had participa ted in which he understood he was working for the CIA.
The incident was one of the triggers
of the congressional inquiry that
eventually linked Secord and Hakim
to a White House-backed effort to

deliver arms to the Nicaraguan rebels.
Ifi his lawsuit, the former steelworker alleges that Corporate Air
Services was linked to Southern Air
Transport , a former CIA-owned
cargo transport company, and Secord
and Hakim's company, Stanford
Technology Trading Group International Inc. The suit identifies Hakim
and Secord as owners and shareholders of Corporate Air. Spokesmen for
Corporate Air and Stanford Technology could not be rcac hed for comment Tuesday. An attorney for
Southern Air Transport , Robert
Beckman , said he had not yet seen the
lawsuit but said he knows of "no basis
for any such claims by Mr. Hascnfus
against Southern Air Transport. "
Southern Air has in the past denied
any connection with the Hascnfus
plane, but has acknowledged that its
co-pilot , William B. Sawyer Jr., was
one of its employees unti l April 1986.
The downed plan 's pilot was carrying
a Southern Air identification card.
In his lawsuit , Hasenfus alleges that
Southern Air regularl y handled ticketing operations for Corporate Air
during his past trips to El Salvador.
Southern Air paid for Hascnfus '
room at the Holiday Inn in Miami ,
and supplied at least one of the planes
utilized by Corporate Air , the lawsuit
alleges.
Hasenfu s claims all three companies are responsible for his capture by
Sandinista troops, suppl ying a dilapidated aircraft for the mission and
forcing Hasenfus to buy and ship his
own parachute. "Mr. Hascnfu s was
forced lo parachute from the plane ,
but was ill-prepared lo protect himself fro m capture as a result of Corporate Air 's failure lo probdc fundamental survival equipment such as a
compass and radio," the lawsuil
claims.

medallion worn by the President during academic convocations. The University Medallion has been awarded
to only three people: Marco and Louise Mitrani , and Richard A. Bcncficld.

Hybrid Ice tries to hit the big time

by 1 cd Kistlc r
Staff Writer
The music industry can be rough,
It 's not easy to enter , and it 's even
harder to survive. But for those luck y
few who make it , the reward s can be
great.
Hybrid Ice is a local band which has
been try ing to crack the lucrativ e
music business for nine years. They
hope their second album , "No Rules ,"
will be ihcir ticket to success.
"No Rules " (set for an earl y 1988
release) is the band' s first vinyl effort
since the self-tilled 1983 album which
included "Magdcllan ," a soft-rock
reg ional hit featuring a smooth melody and the lilting vocals of lead
singer Chris Alburgcr.
The band consists of Alburgcr ,
Rusty Fouikc (lead guitar) , Jeff
Willoug hb y (bass), Bob Richardson
(key boards and vocals) and Rick
Klingcr (drums), all from the
Bloomsburg-Danvillc-Rivcrside areas.
During live performances , the
group mixes ori ginal tunes with songs
by other artists. A wide vocal range
and care fu l attention to subtleties allows them to perf orm such songs as
Queen ' s "Bohemian Rhapsody " and
Yes ' "Leave It ," two songs manufactured in the eng ineering room with
overlapping vocal tracks. They arc

hard to do successfully and not many
bands attempt to perform them live.
Alburgcr said , "We try to do stuff
thai is challenging. But we don 't want
to be so esoteric as to isolntc the
people who want to get out and dance.
There 's a nice balance between what
we want and what the public wants."
Rusty Foulkc summed up the essence at a Hybrid Ice concert. "If you
gclsomcthingoutofit (musically) , all
the better. If not , come out and have a
good time anyway. "
Most of the band' s time is spent
touring clubs in Pennsylvania , Delaware , Mary land and Virginia. Consequently, "No Rules" has taken longer
to produce. When not on tour , the
members spend time in their Danville
studio. It 's a slow process. "It 'i a
balance of trying lo work with yourself , the business and the public ," said
Alburgcr .
The average age of the band is
"pushing 30," and they are hop ing
"No Rules " will finall y put them on
top. "What you arc in your own mind
doesn 't mean a thing, " said Alburgcr
of the band' s potential for success. It 's
not that the club scene has been 'hars h
to them. Alburgcr said , "We've all
made a comfortable living. "
With nine years of louring behind
them , Ilybridlce has some interesting
stories to tell. Foulkcs recalls the time

Mike Love of the Beach Boys came to
see them. Love was accompanied by
Playboy Bunnies , Missy Cleveland
and Marlcnc Jensen. The Beach Boy
left but the Bunnies stayed to sec the
rest of the show.
Foulkcs was already in the music
business in 1976 (before Hybrid Ice
was formed) when he met John Lcnnon in New York City outside the
'Dakota,' where Lcnnon was later
killed. Rusty walked up to the cxBcatlc and said , "You 're the fi rst person in New York I recognize."
Chris Alburgcr said the bi ggest
thrill of his life , however , was opening
for ihc Greg Kihn Band at the
Bloomsburg Fair. Foulkcs shook his
head in agreement.
Central Pennsylvania has never
been known as a wcllspring for rock
bands , so how did a band of professional musicians stay together for so
long and enjoy such success?
"I don 't know anybod y in the band
lhat wants to do anything else," said
Alburgcr. "I can 't do anything else,"
said Foulkcs. "You subtract any one
of us and we 'd be hurting . "

the hotel. He's been host to celebrities
such as Jackie Glcason , Bob Hope,
Vincent Price, Joe Patcrno, and Morris the Cat , and to dignitaries such as
former President Gerald Ford , Senator John Heinz , and former Governor
Richard Thornburg.
Bcncficld , whose employees at the
'Publick House ' and 'Harry 's' are
nearly all BU sludents, says he hires
college students because, "It 's natural. This is a college town. The students arc a source of employees."
The certificate which accompanies
the University Medallion states that it
is presented to "individuals whose
interests and support have helped the
university maintain its 'margin of
excellence. '"
When asked to outline his personal
role with BU , Bcncficld replies , "(It)
adds to the quality of life . BU brings
new industries because it off ers employees, hi gh-quality, low-cost education , as well as cultural and athletic
events. It is an important factor. We
recognize that. "

Sea'rch and Screen Committee which
was looking for a Dean of the College
of Business in 1985. Currently, he is a
member of the Board of Governors of
the Sta te System of Higher Education.
Concerning the University Medallion and his services to BU , Bcncficld
finally says , "Relations between the
town and gown mig ht be improved if
the students were aware of the many,
many peop le from this area who have
done things for the college. People
such as Jack McDowell , Jane Getler,
Drew Hummel...they 're only a fraction. U'Tlic Voice were to run apro file

these peop le, it would give the students a broader view of the community. "

Davis appointed gold bar recruiter

Gail Gamble
f o r The Voice
This year ihe Army Reserve Offi cers Training Corps is fortunate lo
have one of their graduates working at
Bloomsburg University. Second
Lieutenant Nancy L. Davis , from
Wcllsboro, Pa., is performing the job
of gold bar recruiter. The gold bar
stands for the insi gnia a second lieutenant wears.
Davis received a B.A. in psychology last May. In February she will
move to Alabama to attend Ft.
McClclIan 's 12 week course for military police. She will then be stationed
somewhere as a platoon leader controlling about 30 MPs. She hopes
someday to be stationed in the Washington D.C. or Virginia area, and
eventuall y overseas.

not be for everyone, but a freshman
course teaches thing s lhat every person should know , such as the structure of the Army, military history and
courtesies. I know I learned a lot about
military history and time management , a skill every college student
needs."
When asked about her thoug hts on
Advance Camp, the training all juniors must go through , she commented,
"Advance Camp was the best experience of my life. I completed the camp
with much more confidence in myself , because I did things I never
thought I could do."
Davis started the ROTC program
in her sophomore year with a threeyear scholarship. "I had never thought
about being in the Army. The Army
contacted me, and I took the course on
a whim. " Davis 's impulsiveness has
Nancy said, "I think ROTC is an opened up opportunities for a great
opportunity. I know the Army may military career.

llamlct confronts his mother after slaying I'olonius in a Iilonmsbiirj ; Flayer 's production of "Hamlet.1'

Piioi o by TJ Kcmincrcr

by Dave Carton
Staff Writer .
In 1985, a new musical group hit the
scene with such a strong impact that it
caused disturbances left and right.
Either their unusual name, their excessive use of electric guitar feedback ,
or a combination of the two,
causcd'/Vie Jesus And Mary Chain to
receive both harsh criticism and critical acclaim.
Their debut album , "Psychocandy," featured 14 songs of
adolescent rejection and isolation.
Notorious for playing very short (25
minute) concerts, The.Jesus And Mary
Chain annoyed some people wilh
their deadpan delivery (one of their
guitar players always played with his
back to the audience) and came across
to others as the greatest thing since
sliced bread.
Their seeming ly indiscriminate use
of white noise layered over normal
pop music immediately brought com-

parisons with them to The Velvet
Underground , one of the first bands to
use such feedback as an integral part
of their songs. However, where the
Velvets used feedback tunefull y, The
Jesus And Mary Chain simply piled it
on top of their songs. In this classic
case of "lake it or leave it," most
people chose to leave it, as this sort of
innovative music has never been a
mainstay of Top-40 radio.
Well , two years have passed since
the day s of "Psychocandy," and The
Jesus And Mary Chain arc giving it
another try with their new album ,
"Darklands. " Consisting of ten songs
written by brothers Jim and William
Rcid , "Darklands" abandons most of
the earl ier feedback-laden sound for
strai ghtforward , tuneful music.
Some of the better tracks on "Darklands " include 'Happy When It
Rains ,' an upbeat darice song; 'Nine
Million Rainy Days,' a slow , moody
ballad; and 'Fall ,' a near-monotone

dirge that recalls the mood of "Psychocandy." From 'April Skies ' comes
the most timely statement of the
album: "Hand in hand , in a violent
life/ making love on the edge of a
knife/ and the world comes tumbling
down."
The lyrics on "Darklands" tend to
celebrate the blacker side oflifc , even
in the up-tempo songs, without ever
becoming gloomy or depressing. Full
of variety and energy, "Darklands " is
one of the most satisfy ing albums released in the pasl few months.

Editor ' s Note: The author wishes to
thank Michelle and the girls on third
floor Elwcll. "Thanks f o r the readership. This one ' s f o r y ' all. "
I' ve been told I can write.
Not that I probably need lo announce it to the world. Of course I can
write; I' m in college.
1 just wish someone would inform
my English teachers/professors from
the fi ft h grade up.
Just this year , an influential journalist I know said , "Doug, you suck as a
reporter , but 1 think you 'd make a

great fcaiurcs writer. I didn t know
how lo lake it.
I took it as a compliment.
Since so many people think that I
write well , why do I constantl y receive crummy marks on themes? I
sense a great inconsistency.
What I propose is this. Comp Ila:
For features writers ONLY. This
course will grade you on your ability
to be a young D.L. Stuart. It has nothing to do with Thesi , or grammar , or
(ihe dreaded) five paragraph themes,
as none of these are applicable in journalism today.
Let's face it , have you ever seen

anything resembling a live paragra ph
critical essay in The New York 'Tinu .' '.'
The Wall Street JournaP. The Voir; ; ; >
college newspaper) ? No.
I suppose it 's just one of t!i < > v
things. Wc all must endure the coin position classes oflifc: those areas ih. ii
make us more rounded individu.ii- : ,
whether we want to be round or not .
The onl y thought I mi ght leave is
this: I know you professors mean to
better us when you wield that na-ty
red pen like a doublc-bladcd basta r d
sword. Just try to remember that tlioiv
arc a lot of us who write better outsi:! ^
of your classrooms.

For a band whose career was born of
media hype, The Jesus And Mary
Chain appear to have grown out of
their musical infancy and into a wellbalanced pre-adulthood. The main
drawback of this is that , like our own
childhoods , we tend to have less fun
once we grow up. Let's just hope that
they don 't get so mature thai they no
longer create challeng ing music.

The Bloomsburg Players will present William Shakespeare 's Hamlet on
Oct. 7, 8, 9, and 10 at 8 p.m. in Haas
Auditorium. Hamle t is a classical play
about a young prince who matures
quickly in pursuit of truth and revenge.
After being murdered by his
brother, the ghost of Hamlet 's father
informs Hamlet that his mother is
married to his killer. Hcconfidcs in his
friend , Horatio , and depends on him
for stability and advice to help him
deal with the horrible deceit.
According to Stage Manager Ed
Jameson , the play was chosen because
"sludents can identif y with Hamlet
and his search for the truth . Also ,
Shakespeare hasn 't been put on here

for a while. We think the public will
enjoy it."
Senior Jeff Morgan will be Hamlet ,
and ScotlEhlcr will portray his friend ,
Horatio. King Claudius will be performed by Ian O'Conncll , a professional actor from New York City, who
starred in "All My Children " and
made an appearance on "Kale and
Allic. " Delbcrl Roll will portray
Laertes, the King 's confidant , Lori
Antonio will act as Ophelia , Hamlet 's
love, and Queen Gertrude will be
played by Michelle Myers.
Thirty cast members have prepare d
for the performance since May when
auditions were held. The male characters took fencing lessons to make
the fighting scenes more realistic , and
posture and walking exercises were
mastered by the female characters.

The cast has been rehearsing every
evening since the beginning of ihe
semester.
Severa l faculty members have
helped with the production , including
Karen Ansclm , designcrand producer
of over fi fty costumes , and Jod y
Swart/., choreographer of fi ghting
scenes and posture exercises.
John Wade , scene and lig hting desi gner , has created a set thai will
"reach oul lo the audience ," by building platform s from the edge of the
stage to the first few scaling rows ol
the auditorium.
Chairman of the theate r department , Hitoshi Sato , is> stage director.

Bloomsburg Players will be "Trust

quence of the brain exchange. Chris
gets his father 's Jag and gold credit
card , which means a grand shopping
spree for him and his pal Tri gger (Scan
Astin). However, now lhat he has his
father 's intellect and arrogant personality, Chris docs not slop al merel y
passing thai biology exam with H ying
colors; he cannot resist showing off
his newly developed brilliance to a
point of obnoxiousness.
Meanwhile , Jack has his own challenges at work: How do you carry on
heart surgery with your good-natured
son 's teen-age mind? The answer is
you consult your interns , who arc
blown away, unused to Jack asking
them iheir opinions of anything
(Some of the inlcrns have already
been unnerved by Jack' s offer to help
them fix their car).
For all the laughs ihe fathcr-andson 's predicament stirs up, it is clear
that they arc about to destroy each
other 's lives if they do not get their
own brains back - and soon. Again , the
film makers work their way out of this
mess as deftl y as they got into it in the
fi rst place, but not without Jack and
Chris coming to realize each other 's
value. Chris' sunny generosity of

spirit rubs off on Jack , while Chris
comes to respect his father 's implacable dedication.
"Like Father , Like Son 's" humor
may not be as sophisticated as "10" or
"Arthur ," but it offers wonderful
opportunities for Moore , who has
some terrific solo, comedy turns as a
middle-aged man with a teen-ager 's
mind. (When faced with the opportunity of a hot romance with his boss 's
wife , the suddenl y nervous and inexperienced Jack turns on hard rock for
mood music).

Like Father, Like Son " is worth seeing

LA. Times-Washington Post Service

"Like Father, Like Son" gels off to
a great start because its makers
shrewdly decided to treat its preposterous premise, which has parent and
child accidentally exchang ing brains ,
as a joke - and one that is too funny to
be disclosed here. Instead of wasting
time and energy try ing to make the
accident credible , director Rod Daniel
and writers Lome Cameron and Steven L. Bloom concentrate on making
its effects believable. The result is a
warm , imaginative comedy of wide
appeal.
In peak form , Dudley Moore plays
Dr. Jack Hammond , a widowed , brilliant workaholic heart surgeon on the
verge of being named chief of staff at
a major private Southern California
hospital. Kirk Cameron , of TV' s
"Growing Pains ," is Jack' s likable son
Chris, who is heading for a C in hi gh
school biology, much to his exceedingly demanding father 's chagrin.
Chris is not stupid; he is just not a
genius like his father and has no aptitude for science.
The film makers have thought of

Exercise close to Division I
and your Buckncll, loses 3-2
body
Health Corner

by Gail Gamble
for The Voice
Q. I exercise in the summer,
but I have heard that people
should not exercise in humid
weather. Is that true?
A. There are occasions when
one must exercise or work hard
labor during humid weather.
Therefore, let me explain to you
the way the body reacts to hum idity during rest and exercise and
how to counter-balance the environmental conditions.
The human bodji is not completely efficient , while some
energy is used for muscular contraction , the remaining is displaced as bod y heat. The body
must displace the heat by allowing the blood to go to the body
surface. Some heat is lost through
convection which means the heat
is lost by a passing liquid or gas.
Conduction is when Ihe heat is
lost through cantact of a cooler
object. Radiation is absorbing
heat through electromagnetic
waves. Evaporation of perspiration has a cooling effect on the
skin 's surface. During exercise
the body 's temperature increases
in proportion to the duration and
intensity.
The ability to perform exercise
or athletics in hot temperatures is
dependent upon the temperature,
humidity, air movement, intensity and duration , and if acclimatization has occured. In hot temperatures the body loses convection, radiation , and conduction ,
thus evaporation is the only
means of ridding the body of
heat. Unfortunely a high percentage of the fouid lost comes from
the blood plasma which puts a
strain on the cardiovascular system. This in turn drains the body
during endurance exercise.
In the eastern seaboard it is not
uncommon to experience many
very humid days. Humidity
means the degree of moisture in
the air, so 95% means the air is
saturated. Sweating contributes
to thermo regulation only if
evaporation occurs. If evaporation does not occur the body
seems to continually sweat. If the
body cannot dispel heat death can
possibly occur.
One of the greatest problems
with humidity which I personally
experienced is dehydration. A
human can sweat at a rate of 2
liters/hour for short periods, and
1liter/hour for periods of 3 hours
or more. This poses a severe
threat to the body as the internal
body temperature will rise 0.3 to
0.5 degrees for every 1% loss in
body weight. The rise is caused
by the body not being able to
displace adequate heat due to loss
of blood plasma. This loss in
plasma also reduces the ability
for the muscles to receive the
nutrients and oxygen necessary
for activity.
To prevent dehydration, heat
cramps, heat exhaustion , and
heat stroke, here are a few tips.
Use a wet bulb thermometer to
decide whether it is safe to exercise. Awet bulb reflects humidity
as well as dry temperature and it
is a better predictor of how the
body will react to this stress.
Exercise should not be held if a
wet bulb is 78 degrees or more.
By scheduling exercise in the
early morning and evening the
temperatures of the midday can
be avoided.
Fluids should be available before and during exercise because
it can replenish the body and
approximately maintain a lower
body temperature of 1.5 degrees
F compared to abstaining from
fluids. And lastly, clothing
should be loose weaved , light in
color, and as little as possible. So
I would advise you to take these
precautions during the hot sticky
weather instead of giving, up
exercise totally.
Please send questions pertaining to f itness to Dr. LeMura in
Centennial Gym.

The Huskies' soccer team should be
scolding itself today after suffering its
sixth loss of the season , a 3-2 burner to
Division I Buckncll University. By
giving away two easy goals to their
opponents midway in the first half , the
Huskies dug themselves a mammoth
hole from which .to climb.
As is customary with all good
teams, they usually fight their way
back , so did the Huskies on this occasion . After concceoiing goals at the
22nd and 35th minute marks ,
Bloomsburg immediatel y pulled one
back through Kurt Schmid , assitcd by
Kenny McAdams.
Play ing well below their best and
only one goal down at the hal f, the
Huskies knew that they were still in
the game and had a lot to be optimistic
about. Without the two costly errors
which resulted in goals, they could
easily have been leading 1-0 at half.
The hi ghlight of the fi rst half came
fro m a courageous effort on the part of
an injured Kevin McKay. Finishing
off a ri ght side attack , freshman wing
back McKay sent a curling shot to the
last post which necessitated and got an
acrobatic save from goalkeeper Dan

Norton.
Coach Steve Goodwin 's words
must have registered lo the players
because in the second half they came
out a completely different team. There
were gold shirts lo be found everywhere as Bloomsburg went in search
of an equalizer.
v
After some near misses, in particular a Jerry Crick' s 40 yard effort that
curled just wide, the equalizer came
off the boot of co-captain Jack Miligan , assisted by Greg Holgate, a very
versatile-defender for the Huskies.
As thcHuskics went in search of the
winner tlicy had two problems, a very
stauncli Buckncll defense , and their
own lack of enterprise and initiative
on the ball . However they did
outscorc the Bisons 14-11 and 7-4 in
shots and corners respectively.
As the final minutes ticked away
Bloomsburg looked most likely to
score, but against the run oT play,
Buckncll scored the winner with under a minute left in the game.
As the Huskies prepare to host
Kutztown on Friday at 3:00 p.m. the
team must find a way to first , cut out
the mental errors which arc providing
to be very costly, and second, find a
way to win close games.

This year, the B.U. wrestling team
has reason lo brag about the coaching
staff , varsity wrestlers, and new recruits, but they also have an invaluable manager.
Maybe manager
doesn 't complete the title; how about
manager, statistic keeper, tournament
organizer, recruiter and team comedian.
Samir Qureshi , origan ally of Saudi
Arabia, now resides in Elizabeth , New
Jersey. They called him "Reganam"
(which is manager spelled backwards), but we can call him a "Bum "
(Bloomsburg University manager).
Along with his parents, Samir came
to the U.S. in 1982 to visit his uncle.
He really liked it here and decided

here is where he wanted to stay. He
attended Elizabeth High School in
Elizabeth , New Jersey. There he held
positions such as presiden t of the
Student Council , treasurer of the National Honor Society, treasurer of the
Bilingual Club , chairman of the Cafeteria Committee and , of course, manager for 'the girls ' soflball and boys
soccer team.
But his love lies in the sport of
Wrestling. In his sophomore year he
stepped forward to accept the responsibilities as thcEHS Minutemen wrestling manager. Once he took on this
job , he commitcd himself to training
assistant managers 'to keep match and
team scores, assist in seeding meetings and assisting the tournament directors, organize team fund raisers

Many people believe the ideal running back to be about six foot and 190
pounds. By that standard, one of
Bloomsburg's best running backs is
anything but ideal. The Huskies star
running back, Tommy Martin , goes
about five foot seven inches and
about 165 pounds. Coach Adrian said
itbest when claimed, "Itis nolthe size
of the man , but the size of the heart."
Bloomsburg 's little-big man had
one of his best games last weekend
against East Stroudsburg. Mardn ran
for 201 yards on 29 carries. He had a
56 yard touchdown run with 3:59 left
in the game to help seal the 16-3 win
for the Huskies. Martin's perform ance earned him the Pennsylvania
Conference Eastern Division Player
of the Week and a spot on the Eastern
College Athletic Conference Honor
Roll.
So far this year Martin has carried
the ball 81 times for 348 yards. He
also has eight catches for 80 yards.
Martin has four rushing touchdowns
and onereceiving. This makes Martin
the Huskies' leading scorer with 30

year he has broken some of the
University 's records. He has the record for the most carries and yards in a
single game. In the 1985 Kutztown
game, he carried the ball 42 times for
259 yards. He is tied with three other
people who have had three rushing
touchdowns in a single grme. He

The 1985 campaign was Martin 's
most successful. He carried the ball
222 times for 1017 yards. He had 10
rushing touchdowns and was the
team 's leading scorer with 68 points.
In the 1986 campaign he carried the
ball 183 times for 918 yards and 8
touchdowns.
Although this is only Martin 's third

in 1986.
Martin is playing well this year and
has set a goal for himself that will
tough to reach. Martin hopes to have
3000 yards by the end of this year.
This would be quite an accomplishment since he is only in his third year
now. Including the last game Martin
has 2283 total yards. With seven

points.

games remaining he needs 717 yards
to reach his goal.
Coach Adrian has a "great respect
for the way he (Martin) plays the
game." Adrian said that he is a "great
leader"and is "very, very intelligent."
This is plain to see since he graduated
with a 3.4 last semester. Martin came
back to pursue a second degree and to
play more football.
Martin will get his biggest test of
the season when he faces the number
one defense in the country for Division II football , Cheyney University.
The Wolves' defense has allowed
only a paltry averageof 114 yards per
game. Three members of the defensive unit are tied for the team lead in
the tackle department. Free safety
Reggie Northrup, defensive end Jim
Williams and linebacker Darryl
Gardner all have been credited with
36 tackles. Offensively Cheyney runs
out of a power I with double tight
ends. They are a rushing team that
seldom passes. Tailback Aggrey
Quintyn is the leading rusher for the
Wolves with 347 yards on 77 carries,
an average of 4.5 yards per carry.
Quarterback Rob Lewis is much more
proficient as a runner than as a quarterback. He has 183 yards rushing but
is just 13 of 45 pass attempts. The
linemen are all about six foot three
inches tall and weigh about 260
pounds. The Wolves are coming off
two consecutive losses, most recently
a 3-0 loss to number nine nationally,
Millersville , but will be up for the
game Saturday at Redman Stadium.

Qureshi is more than just a manager, he is a 'Bum '

Hockey downs
PS AC champs

by Liz Dacey
Staff Writer
The Bloomsburg University field
hockey team has topped another
Pennsylvania Conference opponent
yesterday, this time shutting out the
defending PSAC champions, Millersville, 3-0.
The Huskies' overall record now
soars to 11-0, included within an
impressive 4-0 conference mark.
In the first half , Bloomsburg was
awarded a penalty stroke after some
pushing and shoving occurred in front
of the Millersville goal. BU's Cindy
Daeche scored on the stroke and then
scored again in the second hald off of
an assist by Daneen Fero.
Sharon Reilly also scored with ten
seconds left in the firsthalf and is now
tied with Alicia Terrizzi for top scorer
honors.
Though Millersville outcomered
the Huskies, 12-6, BU outshot the
Marauders 22-12. Husky goalie April
Kolar had 11 saves while two Millersville goalies split 18 saves.
Bloomsburg looks to continue their
winning streak on Saturday at
Kutztown. Their next home game is
Sunday Oct. 11 at 1p.m. against Slip-

still a student. He's picked up the
whole spirit of wrestling. That 's
something I like to see."
At last year's New Jersey State
Tournament he was sitting in the press
box attending to his mangcrial duties.
"Coach Martucci was sitting next to
mc and soon he started to copy off me.
He asked me if I was a coach and I said
no I'm a manager." said Qureshi.
It was then Coach Martucci recruited him to come to Bloomsburg.
"I came here earlier and I really
liked it alot!" commented Qureshi.
To prove his ,wprth , his coach, along
with the principal Dominic Parisi ,
nominated him for WresUing U.S.A.
magazine's Manager of the year. Out

of hundred s of applicants, 25 coaches
from the magazine nominated him as
the recipient of that award!
Through his dedication and hard
work, he has gained respect from the
Minutemen coaches, staff and team,
and is now respected by the Huskies— both staff and team. .
He has continued his interests and
activities serving as as RHA representative, Hall Council President of
Luzerne and Freshman Class Secretary.
Samir Qureshi is a leader, an activist, an aid - but most of all he is a
respected, enthusiastic manager of a
wrestling team that will soon be labeled the team to beat!
