found that talking to people is much
more informative.
You stated, "So many times I have
been asked what my 'race' is or where
my home is." Maybe the question
wasn't stated exactiy as you would
have liked, but isn't it nice to know
that people are interested in finding
out more about you?
You stated that people are ignorant
and uninformed. How do you expect
people to become informed when you
display such anger and resentment at
a mere innocent question? I'm sure
that I too would gawk at you if you
display as much rudeness in person as
you do in your articles.
Maybe the reason people show
paranoid fears to you is because of
your obvious negative feelings towards those who ask questions of you.
Where else will we gain the knowledge that you want everyone to obtain?
You also displayed disgust towards
the man who made a pass at you
because he found you "exotic." I
would think you would consider th is a
compliment. Is it any different when
men are attracted to blondes or redheads? Trust me, you should take this
as a compliment. Don 't you want
people to notice your differences and
label them as virtues? Or would you
rather just fade into the crowd and go
unnoticed?
You go on to say that you would

I also found the stereotypical student you described to be very disturbing. Would it not be the same for mc
to describe all Indians as roaming the
plains, living in tents. Yes, I' m sure
that bothers you just as your statements bothered me.
You asked what will it take to make
people aware that "in the end , we all
stand as humans?" Well, I have some
suggestions:
First, put your own stereotypes to
rest.
Second, put to rest your anger with
those who ask questions.
Answer proudly that your home is
in Lancaster, but also let them know
some of your heritage, so that they
will become informed and less fearful. Also, instead of complaining,
why not help the administration develop campaigns which will bring
more minorities to this campus.
In the end, we all stand together. So
knock the chip off your shoulder and
live your life proudly instead of trying
to hide in the shadows and blaming
your problems on everyone else. Talk
with us, not to us and you may see
some improvements.

be modified. The phrase it's not fair
is usuall y not good enough.
What you did in rioting was not the
correct or proper way to go about
things. The First Amendment guarantees peaceful assembly; it does not
guarantee you the right to destroy
public or private property.
My second point is that the police
force are charged with the enforcement of the law of the land as well as
the protection of private and public
property. That is their job. They don't
make the laws, their function is to
carry out the laws. Without our police
force, we would have none of the
liberties for which this country is so
renowned.
It may well be true that the police
and associated agencies made mistakes in the arrest, both in the policy
and tactical departments. Chalk that
up to the fact that Bloomsburg is such
a peaceful place, the police have little
experience at crowd control. This is
beside the point. The fact that injuries
were few and light indicates that the
police handled the operation in a reasonably competent manner. The legality of the raid is beyond question.
My third point: what was the reason
for die riot? Allow me the luxury of
providing the "old fogey" viewpoint.
Most of you are too young to remember the 1960's. Riots on campuses
were common, but there was a big
difference. Students protested the
war, fought for civil rights and equality for women. They had a cause.
Most of the participants of the late
night march seem to have had little or
no idea what was going on. It seemed
like a fun to do. in the words of several

BU Students:

Responsible drinkers ?
Dear Editor
I am writing this letter to the
Bloomsburg University administration, the PennsylvaniaLiquor Control
Board, and Pennsylvania State Police.
Yes, underage drinking takes place
here at BU and other schools throughout this state. I would like to know
who was in charge of planning this
raid and other raids. Who were the
people in Harrisburg that gave the orders?

by David I ems
Staff Troublemaker
I'd like to break from the regular
format of this column to discuss a
current event. Specifically, I'd like to
address those students who were involved in the riot.
Admittedly, I wasn 't there. I've
read the newspaper articles, listened
to people who were there, analyzed
the aftermath. There are a number of
points that I have not been able to
confirm in my own mind , such as the
exact tactics used by the police in the
initial stages of the raid or the reasons
for such a large crowd of students
gathering so quickly late at night.
Nonetheless, some things are quite
clear, and I will curtail my comments
to those areas.
First off , drinking is illegal for
anyone under age 21. You 've been
told this fact for years. You can break
this law all you want, so long as you
do so with the knowledge that you
might very well get caught, and if you
are caught you will probably be punished .
This law is constitutional. There is
nothing about this regulation that
contradicts the law of the land or
violates our constitutional heritage.
The law was created because society,
after many years of experience, decided that people under a certain age
do not handle alcohol well. The riot of
Nov. 19 seems to prove that point.
If you do not agree with this law,
fine. There are provisions in this
country for changing the laws. If you
can make a good enough case for
yourself and the majority of the voting public supports you, the laws will

Argument full of faults

To the Editor
This is in response to Najma
Adam 's article which appeared in the
Monday , Nov. 23 issue of The Voice.
In your article, you brought out a
few points worthy of merit. However,
I found many of your points extremely contradictory.
First of all , you wrote, "The majority has labeled mc a minority." The
dictionary defines a minority as, "a
group differing especially in race ,
religion , or ethnic backround from the
majority of die population. " So in
fac t, I don 't think anyone ha? labeled
you. It is a fact. If I were to go to India ,
I too would be a minority.
You seem to blame the demographics of Columbia County for the problems you face , which I do acknowledge arc real problems. However, I
find it v ery hard to believe that you did
not know of these statistics before
entering Bloomsburg University. I
think the problem of low enrollment
is a result of die already low enrollment of minorities found at
Bloomsburg .
So. the problem is the cause of the
problem. I hig hlydoubt the minori ties
that do apply are discriminated
against — it is simpl y a problem of
getting the worth y ones to apply.
You suggest that there be a mandatory class on foreign cultures . I think
that is a good idea , also. I have had a
course in world cultures , but have

Editor 's note:
The above letter was
written in response to
comments made by a
BU professor in a recent issue of the PressEnterprise. For those of
you who missed it, it is
recommended that you
dig one up and read a
copy.

Happy to be here
Dear Miss Adam
Can I have your autograph? I ask
that because you are just too wonderful to believe. I consider myself so
lucky that you and I share the same
campus. To think that someone as
wonderful as you , who shows no
ignorance, is neither misinformed nor
uninformed, and cares about absolutley everything, is just too good to be
true.
If you weren't everything you said
you were, I would think that you
should take a good hard look at yourself and see if you are really better
than everyone else, especially those
of us mentioned at the end of your last
article.
I grew up in a small town. My father
attended college: my mother was a
secretary. My brother and I attend this
university. My family also goes to
church and we have a golden retriever
named Mike. We own a Chevy Celebrity station wagon.

According to your latest Voice article, you are not a free thinker. Oh,
gracious, Najma, forgive my transgressions for I know not— I am ignorant. Forgive me for not having your
marvellous insight into my own
childhood. Forgive me for treating
my parents, church and my dog with
such esteem.
I am very happy to have the opportunity to continue my education here
at BU. I think for myself and I think
that you have a definite problem . It 's
called a chip on your shoulder. A chip
that you try to pawnoff on anyone you
can. I do not deny you your human
liberties— don 't you dare deny me
mine. Remeber that you are not judg e,
jury and executioner all-in-one. Contrary to the attitude conveyed in your
last article , you are certanly not perfect or above reproach. You disgust
me.

Some cars will remain forever out
of the reach of the general public because of their limited availability,
astronomical price or because they
aren't being made anymore.
Some examples that come to mind
are the AAR' Cuda, the ZL-1 Camaro,
and the legendary Boss 429 Mustang.
While these are all rare and valuable
cars, they seem almost commonplace
in comparison to a pair of ultra-high
performance European automobiles
that will probably never cruise the
streets of America.
The first of these is called the Ferrari F40, in honor of that company 's
40th anniversary as a manufacturer.
The mid-engined F40 is for only the
serious performance enthusiast.
You won 't find such useless things
as carpeting, roll-up windows, or a
radio in this car. You will see are such
goodies as a 224-mph speedometer, a
10,000-rpm tach, and a gate-pattern
five-speed shifter.
Connected to the shifter is the highperformance heart of this limited
production Ferrari, a twin-turbo—4»mw&"

charged and intercooled 2.9 liter V8
that cranks out an astounding 471
horsepower. If this engine is inadequate, those of truly stout heart and
suicidal intentions can order an option
package that raises output by an extra
200 hp.
This much power in a car that
weighs only 2,650 pounds results in a
0-124 mph time of 12 seconds and a
top speed of 201 mph. Unfortunately,
this incredible performance comes at
an equally incredible price.
The F40 will cost 250 million lire,
or about $187,000 when it goes on
sale in Italy. Ferrari plans to build
about 400 cars, beginning sometime
in 1988, with a few planned to be
exported to North America to worthy
racers.
If the idea of a $187,000 Ferrari a
little hard to believe, then how about a

a million? The 959 is the highest
priced Porsche ever made, setting the

also includes men 's items such as tietacs, sculpted brass key rings, and
exotic wood on brass belt-buckles.
The gallery 's left wall is lined with
watercolors by Graces ' mother ,
Frances Maurer. They are very eyepleasing and exhibit a realistic style.
Grace also has several of her own
pen-and-ink and pen-artd-watercolor
paintings on display which are interesting in their own right. Her subjects
are groups of her friends and familiar
scenes near her farm on Lightstreet.
Towards the rear of the store, handdipped candles are displayed in all the
colors of the spectrum. Also, one can
buy them in balls and pyramids, along
with matching holders .
Along the right wall , there are a
variety of wooden crafts. These range
from childrcns' toys, which are educational in nature, to rolling pins and
other kitchen utensils.
In the rear of the store, there is a
selection of wooden box drums
known as Tapo Drums. They are hand
crafted, produce clear tones, and customers are always welcome to play
them.
Also in the rear of the store are hand
knit items and woven rugs which are
incredibly thick and interwoven with
different colors of ribbon and other
textured fibers.
One of the gallery 's most interesting displays are two racks of tie-dyed
shirts and pants.The tie-dye items are

The motivating force beneath this

This unique setup delivers 444 hp.,

the 959 from 0-60 in a mere 3.8 seconds and giving it a top speed of 190

To put this kind of power into perspective, the twin-turbo V8 of the

the tie-dyes seems to have rounded
out the store. Now the rugs and other
fiber items also sell better."
Grace and Sweeney have created
their own label for their tie-d yes
known as "Spoonfed Tie-dyes".
The multi-colored shirts are made
with over20 differentcolors , and they
also produce their own custom colors.
Sweeney commented, "I enjoy tiedying because of the unlimited combinations of colors and patterns one
can obtain with different folding and
dying techniques."
One of the most interesting aspects
of the store, however, is Sue Grace
herself.
She enjoys spending time in her
store arranging displays, play ing her
guitar, and chatting with friends who
stop by frequently to visit.
She says, "People who aren 't involved in crafts do not realize that at
least half of the time and effort by
crafts people in making their wares is
spent trying to sell them. I'm proud
that everything I sell is the best quality
possible and is produced by people
like myself."

during home football games.
But not everything in regard to the
band is perfect. The band feels it deserves more credit from this institute
because of all the lime and support it
gives to cheer the Huskies.
Another reason for feeling unappreciated is lack of support from the
students. The band couh' receive
more student recognition by coordinating more activities wher:; the band
is in the public eye.
Organizing pep rallies for basketball games and wrestling matches,
where a few band members could
perform , would cause students to recognize the band , and "fire up"spectators as well as athletes.
Although the Husky football season is over, the dedication , enthusiasm , and the support given to the
Huskies by the Maroon and Gold
Ban d should always be recognized.
Once students realize, the potential
of the band , they may even want to
join.
As Josh Payne, president of the
Maroon and Gold Band , and historian
of TBE remarks, "We're happy
(about) the way the band is progressing, and we're always looking for new
members."

Surviving in a tough neighborhood ,
Mike's childhood meant being on the
streets, committing acts of petty theft
and vandalism. "You cither conformed or got beaten up," he says.
Even after his family 's finances

still felt he had to "go along" with his

Methods for tardiness given

f o r The Voice
You sneak into the classroom ,
slide into your desk , and look at the
clock. The lime is 9:06 a.m. Only six
minutes laic for class. That's not too
bad , but maybe you should try for
seven minutes tomorrow. Most of us
arc late to class at times , but some of
us make an art of it.
First , ignore the alarm clock. You
don 't have to ignore it completely,
just keep hitting the snooze button (at
least four times) . When you finall y
wake up, stay in bed. The longer you
lie in bed and pretend you have nowhere to go, die later you will be for
class.
Take a 45-minutc shower. You
need to relax , especiall y on a morn-

ing when you have to go to class.
When your roommate offers to make
you bacon and eggs, accept. You need
a balanced breakfast , and it should
take at least 15 minutes to eat.
What to wear? How about that red
sweatshirt you haven 't seen in five
weeks? There is no better time then
the present to organize your wardrobe
and find that long-lost shirt. If it takes
more than 20 minutes , give up the
search. You only want to be late for
class, not>miss it entirely.
When your hair 's just right , your
bed' s made and your backpack's full ,
you 're ready to go. But don 't forget
the most important step: drive to
campus. A twenty-minute search for a
parking spot is a sure-fire way to be
late for class.

New York City cab drivers. He also
got money by driving cars to the
Bronx and destroying them with
gasoline bombs so the owners could
collect the insurance money. And all
because, Mike says, "I fell in love
widi heroin."
Soon he was using other drugs cocaine to "get pumped up"and quaaludes to "mellow out." He began selling quaaludcs until his contact was
arrested and sent to Sing-Sing for 10
years.
Broke and scared, Mike sought
help to kick his habit. He entered a
veteran 's hospital where he learned
about Narcotics Anonymou s (NA).
Like Alcoholics Anonymous , NA
provides support to recovering addicts.
"I got cleaned up, got a good job at
Newark Airport , got married and then
we had Christopher," he says. But 18
months later, Mike slid back. He
began to "lie, cheat, steal , use."
He went th rough another detoxification , this time at White Deer Treatment Center in Pennsylvania. But
when he returned to New Jersey, he
couldn 't "stay clean."

Within two months, Mike had gone
deeply into debt, charging televisions
and stereos on his credit cards and
selling them for cash to buy drugs. His
wife threatened to leavewith their son
and go to her parents in Puerto Rico.
"It was the low point for me. I had
even sold our furniture to buy drugs,"
Mike says.

Finally, on August 6, 1984, Mike
went to his parents' home and stayed
there for five days, going through
another detoxification. It is a date he
will always remember and celebrate,
because he has been drug-free since
then.
Mike returned to NA where he
found "people who loved me and
showed me I could love myself." He
believes he owes a debt to his friends
atNA. There, he learned to be honest
and fair with himself. He believes it is
important to be "humble," to remember the past and always be willing to
learn from it. "Once I say I have this
licked and get cocky, I'm vulnerable," he says.
Mike moved to Pennsylvania and
completed a two-year program in
human services at the Williamsport
Area Community College. He is now
pursuing a career in special education. "In the first part of my life, I was
a taker. In the second part, I'd like to
be a giver," he says.
Working with socially and emotionall y disturbed children , Mike believes he can accomplish this goal. He
will be able to help them feel better
about themselves and gain the acceptance of their peers without feeling
they must "go along with the crowd."
Mike says he is happy with himself
now and doesn 't feel inferior, as he
once did. He credits NA with helping
him. "NA didn 't open the doors of
heaven to let me in; it opened the
doors of hell to let me out," he says.

songs to welcome in the Yule seasdn.
All joined in the singing of "Silent

The Madrigal Singers are directed
by Dr. Wendy L. Miller. The ensemble is a small group that sings
madrigals, which were popular in the
15th dirough 17th centuries. The
musicians are usually unaccompanied.
The group's accomplishments include a tour of Japan more than four

ten classes in victory
by Mary Ellen Spisak
Staff Writer
Tuesday night, the Warriors of East
Stroudsburg visited Nelson Field
House in the 33rd meeting between
BU and ESU.
The Warriors have not beaten the
Huskies since 1973, and that statistic
did not change as our grapplers once
again won 32-8. Bloomsburg saw 8
victories at 126, 134, 150, 158, 167,
177, 190 and Hwt.
At 118v John Supsic met with 118
All-American Jack Cuvo and suffered a 12-4 loss.
Supsic was quick on his feet, but
Cuvo used takedowns in the second
and third quarters, adding with an
escape and backpoints.
At 126, Tony Reed went on to a 206 decision over Curt Pakutka, as he
executed takedowns in a succession
too quick for the Warrior. Pakutka
had his back to the mat as Reed
scored a total of 7 backpoints.
Action at 134, saw Dave Kennedy
beat Warrior Anibal Nieves by 7-1,
making the team score 8-4.
Terry Barry decisioned Greg Diaz
at 142 using consecutive takedowns.
Diaz returned with some quick escapes, but it was not enough to hold
back the 16-4 Warrior victory.
Roger Dunn shot takedowns as
quickly as ESU's Bill Troop used
escapes. But Dunn 's technique led
him to a 7-5 lead, with 1:05 in riding
time to make it 8-5.
At 158, Bob Scannell tried to "escape," but Huskies' Dave Morgan
accumulated 2:24 in riding time,
while working 6 points in take-

downs, 5 backpoints, 1 escape point
and a reversal worth 2 Morgan decisioned his opponent 14-6.
Sophomore standout Mark Banks,
at 167, beat Steve Bambach 14-4
with agility as he used backpoints, a
near fall, a reversal and takedown
points.
Banks is ranked sixth at 158 by
Amateur Wrestling News.

to the mat, and in 3:27, used a "quick
six" to beat his Warrior opponent by
a fall.

decisioned Rusty Amato 12-4, adding 1:20 riding time to make the final
score 13-4.

The Bloomsburg University
women's swim team recorded a big
win yesterday at Nelson Fieldhouse
Pool when they defeated Bucknell
University . With a final score of 157
to 97, the Husky women captured first
place finishes in fourteen of sixteen
events.
Assistant coach Denise Sedlack
commented, "It was a good, overall
meet. The women swam very well
and looked great for this time of the
season. The victory was a total team
effort."
In the first event, the 200 medley
relay, the team of Kim Youndt, Tina
Wasson, Beth Roeder, and Karen
Pfisterer set the pace for the rest of the
meet by cruising to a first with a time

of 1:55.56. Close behind was the team
of Sue Ruepple, Ann Fritz, Chris Pierie, and Carol Lohr who just missed a
second place by .04 seconds to Bucknell.
The Huskies kept Bucknell from
finishing any higher than third place in
eleven of the remaining fifteen events.
The results were as follows:
In the 1000 freesty le, Deb Legg and
Amy Groome finished first and second in times of 10:59.49 and 11:12.80.
In the 100 and 200 freestyle, Pfisterer took first with times of 55.28 and
2:00.32. Kim Nelson was close behind and finished second in 55.60 and
2:01.07.
Wasson finished first in the 100
breaststroke in 1:12.33 while Fritz
took second in 1:12.38. In the 200
breaststroke, the girls switched places
with Fritz taking first in 2:37.86 and
Wasson coming in second in 2:39.20.
Youndt finished first in the 200
backstroke with Legg right behind in
2:16.33 and 2:19.23, respectively. In
the 200 individual medley, Youndt

finished first again in 2:20.06, while
Roeder took a second in 2:20.07.
Roeder, a three time national qualifier, finished first in the 100 butterfly
with a time of 59.85, with Pierie taking second in a time of 1:02.67. In the
500 free , Nelson finished first with a
time of 5:21.56 and Legg pulled in a

In the one meter diving, Patu' Lerch
and Wendy Moyer took first and second , with Tina Higgins finishing
sixth . Lerch and Moyer finished second and third in the three meter diving, with Gina Fonara taking sixth.
First place finishes were captured
in the 50 free by Pfisterer and in the
100 backstroke by Youndt with times
of 26.35 and 1:01.91, respectively.
Concluding the meet was the 400
freesty le relay. The team of Chris

rebounds. Lorenzi also led the team in
rebounds with nine.
"She (Hall) is a good player. She
moves well She plays good defense
and she is only p.freshman . She's still
learning," Head Coach Joe Bressi said
of his freshman forward.
Hall isn't the only addition to the
club this year. In fact , freshmen are
common on Bressi's bench this season
as eight of 14 players are in their first
year.
Bressi had nothing but praise for
his new players. "We got another
tough rebounder in Donna Cooper to
complement Amy (Wolf). Then thenis Elaine Wolf who can drive and
knows what to do with the ball when
she gels it," he said.
Bui when the name Nina Alsotn
came up, all he could say was, "Exciting."
When Bressi made his first substi tution of the game at 11:23 he inserted
Alston in the game , which
Bloomsburg trailed , 13-12.
Alston nailed a three-pointer and
then man aged a steal that led to two
free throws by Lorenzi and the Huskies were off on a 13-0 run that would
give them a 25-13 lead and total
domination of the first half.
In the run Alston had two steals
and an assist to go with her threepointer.
When the smoke cleared from all
the fast breaks, the Huskies had themselves a 33-20 halftime lead.
The first half was characterized by
poor shooting by both teams. "We are
still playing down to the teams that we
face," Bressi said. "I don't know why
we do it and I don't know how to
correct it."
The one thing the Huskies did do
very well was press. And they opened
the second half with some more of the
same.

The Bloomsburg University men's
basketball team struggled against a
pair of Division III teams as well as the
most recent Division I opponents the
past two weeks.
Last night, the Huskies lost to Division IGeorge Washington, 71-60. The
main determanants in the game were
the Huskies' 26 turnovers.
Bloomsburg played tough in this
game and had a seven point lead at one
point in the first half.
George Washington made a late run
in the first half and trailed by only two
points at the half, 36-34.
George Washington also put together a run in the second half as they
outscored Bloomsburg 30-13 in the
last 13:11 of the game.
Mike Jones and Jarrell Jackson
paced George Washington with 18
and 17 point respectively. Joe Stepanski led all Bloomsburg scorers with 18

points.
On Monday, Bloomsburg beat
Susquehanna, 71-63. Susquehanna
and Bloomsburg played tough defense in the earl y going and
Susquehanna held a 20-15 lead with
6:30 to go in the first half. The Huskies then scored 12 straight points and
the Huskies took a 33-27 lead into
halftime.
Poor ball-handling by Bloomsburg
allowed Susquehanna back in the
game and they took the lead back with
7:30n to go in the game, 57-54.
From there the Huskies outscored
Susquehanna 15-7 to clinch the victory.
Dave Carpenter and John Williams
led Bloomsburg scorers with 15 and
14 points respectively. Steve Tayler
led Susquehanna with 11.
Two Mondays ago, the Huskies
downed a pesky York team, 70-67, in
a thrilling game.
Bloomsburgjumped out to an early

16-3 lead as a result of poor shooting
by York and Strong rebounding by
Bloomsburg.
York chipped away at the lead with
runs of 11-3 and 10-5, to pull within
four at the half, 40-36.
York outhustled and outrebounded
Bloomsburg in the early part of the
second half and had a48-42 lead with
¦13:57to go.
Bloomsburg then regained the lead
late in the game, due to the excellent
play of freshman Craig Philli ps who
scored all 13 of his points in the second half.
York had its chance to tie the game
late, but didn 't make the shot and the
Huskies held on for the win , 70-67.
Williams led the Huskies in scoring
with 17 points and Rawle Philips led
York scorers with 22 points. •
The Huskies are now 3-2 overall
and will play Sunday afternoon at
home against New York Tech, with a
starting time of 2:00.

They abandoned the man-to-man
press that had worked in the first half
in favor of a 1-2-2 press that allowed
them to go on an 11-4 spurt to open the
second half and take a 20 point lead,
44-24.
The Cougars cut it to 19 at 46-27,
but Lorenzi hit two straight fast break
baskets off of assists by Carla Shearer
and Alston to their biggest lead of the
game to that point, 50-27.
The two clubs exchanged fast
break buckets before poor shooting
enabled the Huskies to go on a 10-0
run and ice the game at 72-39 with two
minutes remaining.
The 76-50 final score may be
impressive, but it becomes even more
so when your starting point guard
didn't even play.
"Becky (Pigga) is our point guard.
Carla (Shearer) is a good back-up but
she really is a wing player," Bressi
said. "We need Becky in there."
With his bench, Bressi is confident
of his team's agressive pressing style.
"We have to press to be good.
There is no doubt about it, we have to
go after people. Depth is the key, and
ours gives us the chance to do all the
things we want, to make substitutions,
to run the ball or to press," he said.
The Huskies now move to 3-0 after
the win. Their first two came in their
first tournament.
"I feel that we did a nice job against
two quality teams in that tournament.
You see two good teams in Galssboro
St. and Stockton, and we beat them
both ," Bressi said.
The next game for the Huskies will
be this Saturday against Army.
"Army will be a good test for us,"
Bressi said.
"They are without adoubt the best
team we've played so and could quite
possibly be the best team that we play
all year."
