Condom reaction favorable

by Karen Reiss
Editor-in-Chief
Students at Mansfield University
responded favorably to the distribution of condoms in Thursday 's issue
of the student-run newspaper, the
Flashlight , according to staff members.
Public Relations Director of the
newspaper Lorcna Beniquez thought
of creating a special issue dedicated to
AIDS awareness about six months
ago.
"We used the condom as an attention getter," Beniquez said. "Then
people would read the issue. The
condoms added the human factor."
Beniquez pointed out that the staff
was not trying to make a statement
condoning sex, but for students who
choose to engage in sexual activities,
condoms should be used.
"Students seem to be responding
with a mature attitude," she added.
Flashlight Editor-in-Chief Corbin
Woodling said at first he was hesitant
about the idea because he is conservative.
"I had the idea we could do the issue
if we did it right," Woodling said. He
added that they considered every
point of view, from the churches' to
the students'.
Kathy Galeo, news editor of the
Flashlight, said she conducted a poll
of approximately 150. Of that group,
three-fourths admit to engaging in
sexual activity.
"If we can help one person protect
themselves against AIDS, I think we
have done our job," Galeo said.
The condom s for the issue were
contributed by the North Penn Health
Service in conjunction with the Pennsylvania Health Department. North
Penn is contracted by the university to
provide health service to the students.
The university has no on-campus
facility.
"We called national condom com-

panies, but they said they could not
help us," Woodling said. "At first,
North Penn said they could not help us
either."
Woodling and Beniquez agreed
that the project , which al first seemed
would fail „tumed out successful.
Mansfield University's Vice President for Student Affairs Joseph R.
Maresco said his first reaction to the
staffs plans was one of surprise.
"I cringed a little at the idea,"
Maresco said. "I anticipated a mixed
bag of reaction from the community."
Staff members shared their plan
with Maresco one week before the
issue would appear on campus. The
staff worked with the administration
on press releases to be sent to the
media.
"We received a lot of media attention ," he said. He added that wire
services picked up the story and at
least five different TV stations had
visited the campus , including
Bloomsburg University's own Bloom
News.
Maresco said the student reaction
he received on Thursday was supportive to the idea. The student body was
not aware of the newspaper's plans
until the issue was distributed that
morning.
Mansfield University's AIDS Task
Force has been in affect for two years
and the response to AIDS awareness
programs in the residence halls "has
been mediocre , according to
Maresco.
"We have been struggling to get the
word out," he said. "Students will sit
up and take note of what the newspaper has done. I'd like to think they will
read the articles also."
University President Rod Kelchner
agreed that the Flashlight ' s actions
will spark interest and awareness.
"I think thuFlashlight staff is trying
to call attention to a very serious
health problem that has society con-

fused. It is very complex," Kelchner
said.
Kelchner said that he received three
negative reactions as. of Thursday
afternoon.
"I received a phone call from a
student expressing embarrassment ."
he said. Kelchner also received an
unsigned letter from a Mansfield resident and a parent who was angry
because the university allowed the
newspaper to follow through with
their project.
"I do not censor the press," Kelchner said. "To be honest, if I could
have, I'm not sure I would have."
Kelchner said he has also received
some positive feedback.
"The president of our Alumni Association said he thinks it is a good
idea and he will endorse it," he said.
At present, Mansfield University
does not distribute or sell condoms on
campus.

The Inter-Sorority Council has
permitted Phi Sigma Sigma, an international sorority, to begin a pledge
colony at Bloomsburg University.
Phi Sigma Sigma is "scholarship,
social, and service oriented," according to Phi Sigma Sigma President
Lisa Cellini, a BU sophomore.
Cellini said the sorority is "nonsectarian...we will not deny any
woman membership because of race
or religion."
Cellini says the interest in forming a
new sorority on campus was originally shared by two different groups
of women in the spring of 1987, who
"were unaware of each other."

The groups asked 23 national sororities to give them presentations.
Cellini said, "Phi Sigma Sigma was
the only sorority that informed us that
there were two groups on this campus
interested in forming a sorority." The
two groups merged last fall , and the
colony currently has 36 members.
"Phi Sigma Sigma asked the ISC
for permission to pledge on this campus, and to have representatives sit on
ISC so that we could open communication lines between our group and
sororities currendy established on this
campus," Cellini said.
She added, "We have not yet received
our
probationary
requirements...we do not know exactly what they will be."

She said they will be receiving
those requirements within the next
two weeks.
When asked why a group of girls
would want to form a new sorority on
a campus where nine are presently established, Cellini said, "It was a personal goal within each of us. We
wanted to found a colony. Our
strength has brought us this far, and
with patience, we will achieve our
ultimate goal of becoming a chapter."
Cellini added, "BU has one of the
strongest Greek systems in the state
and we would like to become a part of
that with the support of the sororities
and fraternities currently on campus."
Gretchen Highland, Phi Sigma
Sigma national representative, said,

"I am very impressed with the group.
They seem very motivated and very
strong."
Highland added, "They have also
been very patient in forming this colony."
ISCPresidentMaryannPatton said,
"Phi Sigma Sigma has a long way to
go (before they become a
chapter)...but we're behind them all
the way."
Greek Coordinator Lori Barsness
said, "The girls and I have worked a
long time...(and) the sororities have
been supportive."
Barsness added, "With 175 women
going through Rush , it shows that it's
time for expansion. It's pretty exciting."

Bloomsburg University has implemented several energy conservation
programs that have saved thousands
of dollars, according to Don
McCulloch, director of Physical Plant
and Energy Management.
McCulloch said that a computer
obtained in 1985 has improved maintenance control of BU grounds.
BU was the first state university to
obtain the computer which has over
600 pieces of equipment connected to
it and is capable of setting the temperature in all campus buildings.
University administration has set
building temperatures of 70 degrees
for winter,and 75 degrees for summer
- except for Kehr Union at 72 degrees.
The reason for Kehr Union's lower
temperature is because of increased
activity in that building.
McCulloch said that maintenance
conducts a holiday program over
break during which the temperature in
the dormitories is set at 55 degrees.
Two or three days prior to reopening,
the temperature is returned to a comfortable 70 degrees.
There is also a night set-back program which sets temperatures lower
in such buildings as Waller Admini-

stration, which is rarely occupied at
night.
If a group is conducting an evening
activity in a night set-back building,
an evening activity form must be
filled out and submitted to maintenance for night set-back postponement.
Another energy conservation program involves turning off soda machines during student breaks. Soda
machines in such buildings as Ben
Franklin are shut off when the building closes.
A recycling program, which is run
by the Management Office, encourages students to separate trash into
recyclable and non-recyclable products, contributing to energy conservation.
"We are continuing to look at energy management. It is a continual,
ongoing process," McCulloch said.
"The inevitability of another energy
crisis is only a matter of time."
McCulloch used McCormick
Human Services Center as an example of energy conservation which
has tremendous paybacks.
"There was not an increase in the
budget when it came to heating
McCormick. McCormick heats on a
system which generates heat from

machines in the building, such as
computer terminals."
This heat is transferred to a space
between the third floor ceiling and the
roof and acts as an insulation for the
building, retaining heat.
In addition, hot-water pipes are
built into the structure of the building
and provide an additional source of
heat.
Another building which conserves
energy by conserving heat is Nelson
Fieldhouse.
By utilizing a dehumidification
process through the use of heatpumps
in the swimming pool area, heat is
conserved.
These processes not only conserve
energy but have paybacks in the thousands of dollars.
"It's important to the student. If we
were not saving money, tuition would
have to be higher," McCulloch said.
This summer, maintenance plans to
replace all windows in Columbia Hall
because of poor ventilation complaints.
The project will cost approximately $150,000, but there will be a
payback in four years.
McCulloch said that the window
replacement will not only enforce
energy conservation and savemoney ,

but will also improve the comfort
level for students.
Plans for installing new heating
systems are also underway.
McCulloch said that the university
plans to ask the Governor's Energy
Council for a grant to pay half of the
$90,000 project.

Facing the condom issue
by Karen Reiss
Editor-in-Chief
Welcome to National ConJom
Week.
It's no joke. While we »TO celebrating Valentine' j Day yesterday,
we were also cckbrat-i.'.-..; t.Ne beginning of a newl y-p,avi:u:'.vei.i w«i to
recognize fhc^ise o»" condonw.
Mansfield University ' s student
newspaper staff be^a-'1 celebrating
condom week a little early. Last
Thursday, they taped condoms to
2,500 issue of the newspaper to deliver a message. Their message was
plain and simple , "If you are going to
have sex, use a condom. "
To some, their method may seem a
bit risque. However , they were not
condoning sex. It is not a newspaper's
responsibility, or even its place, to
condem or condone anything.
They were, however, providing
valuable information to a group of
people who need to be informed.
College students.
We can be nieve and say that things
like that don 't happen here. Or wecan
face the facts - some students choose
to engage in premarital sex with one
partner or multiple partners. They

need to know the facts.
Mansfield' s president expressed
honesty on the subject of AIDS. He
said he has not had to deal with this
issue on his campus yet, but he knows
he will.
It is just a matter of time.
He also admitted , with some regret
and some embarrassment, that he
could not speak intelligently about the
AIDS policy his university employs.
He did admit , though , that some
changes will have to be made regarding attitudes towards AIDS. And they
must be made soon.
Relating the AIDS epidemic to a
health problem of the past, he said that
today nobody ever thinks about polio.
Yet, when he .was our age, in his early
twenties, polio was a life-threatening
disease.
"Today we are scared to death of
AIDS ," he said. "I was scared lo death
of polio." Many people, he said, were
not aware the Franklin D. Roosevelt
was crippled by polio. He was never
shown from the waist down to the
public. The fact was hidden .
"Some people say hide AIDS .
Our students are saying, 'no, don 't
hide the facts , expose the fact. ' "

At present, Mansfield University
does not have condoms available on
campus. Yet there have beenefforts to
do so.
Many argue that there is no need for
condoms on campus. For students at
BU, town is just a few minutes away.
I don't think the reason for the big
push for condoms on campus is convenience only. I think it has to do with
visibility.If they are seen, they may be
used more often. This is not to say that
people who abstain from sex will be
tempted, but people who do have
sexual encounters will be more aware
of using condoms.
Presently, our campus has no policy
for issuing condoms on campus , either.
Some administrators believe they
will be seen as condoning sex and they
have a big problem with this.
The condom issue is highly charged
and highly controversial. When the
university 's image is at stake, the right
and wrong of the issue must be
weighed carefull y.
However, I don 't believe the university should look at it as an argument of right and wrong, they must
see it as an issue of life and death.

Should I stay or should I go? Since
last semester, when I finally became a
senior, I have been asking myself this
question on a dail y basis. Do I want to
go to grad school and brave a few
more years of this life, or am I ready
for the real world?
College has been a great experience
for me. The times I've shared with my
friends in Bloomsburg have been
some of the best in my life. I've done
fairly well grade-wise with minimum
effort , and my responsibilities have
been few (or at least post-poned.)
Some days I think I could stay here
forever. But they are the days when
everything just happens to go right, or
when I'm still recovering from a great
weekend on Wednesday.

The days that I ache to get out are
usually at the end of the month when
my credit card and utility bills roll in ,
and my meager paycheck rolls out. I
think to myself, "Someday I'll drive a
car that has both headlights, and was
built in this decade."
Then my fear of the real world kicks
in and I think, "Someday I'll have
even bigger bills. Someday I'll be
paying for a car that will cost more
than the house my parents bought
when they were my age."
What a decision. On the academic
side, if I do the grad-school thing, I
could pursue my newfound interest in
broadcasting. If I go, the chances that
I'll return to do so are slim.
On the money side, iflstay I'll need

to take out more student loans. I've
already got half of the national debt
racked up at the bank now. But, if I go,
I'll have to get a car loan, then a
morgage, an IRA , a financial
consultant...the deliberation continues.
Since the GRE exams were held a
few weeks ago, I guess I'm off the
hook for the fall semester, at least. B ut
then what?
I think I'm going to ignore the possibilities and consequences and enjoy
my last (?) semester in college. And
the only time I'm answering the "stay
or go" question is when my roommate
asks me to go to the Paddock.

ANY
QUESTIONS?..

In ventive ideas f or 1989
by David Ferris
Staff Troublemaker
There seems to be a distinct lack of
new things in the universe, particularly new ideas. I first realized this
when I saw a sneak preview of the new
cars for 1989.
The car companies have run out of
new names. For instance , the
ACTMC (American Company That
Makes Cars) has announced its new
line of economy compacts called the
ACTMC Mud. The other national
companies, Shickshinny Motors and
TMD (Those Manufacturing Dudes),
have announced the new Breadbox
mid-size and Tedious wagon, respectively. The Japanese firm Notsoshuri
will be releasing its sporty new Ornery Goat.
This sudden dearth in things new
has something to do with the theory of
entropy. This states that the universe
has a limited amount of energy in it ,
and that when people run out of new
ideas they write situation comedies
for television.
Last week a few individuals on
campus came up with a novel idea.
They were using a Macintosh computer and laser printer to attempt to
duplicate Pennsylvania driver licenses.
Some people suggested that the
culprits
should be given credit for
'
innovative thinking; that is one of the
few things I can think of that the Mac
would be good for. It 's certainly a
worthless piece of machinery from
the programmer's viewpoint. However, others suggested that the credi t
be taken away again since the alleged
forgers were dumb enough to try such
a stunt in a crowded student laboratory.
The idea of a fake ID is a bit backward to begin with. I realize the idea is
for a 19-year-old to pass as 21, so that
they can consume large quantities of a
liquid that will have the primary consequence of making them act like a
complete fool before throwing up.
Five years from now this person will
probably wish they were 19 again. By
then they've discovered that rites of
passage are way overrated.
I've come up with a much more
profitable idea. I'm going to make

At Laree^
Today* s love is for now. not forever
by Ellen Goodman
They are in their twenties and in
love. Not in love forever. In love fornow.
They haven 't said this exactly. But
as a certified FOF (friend of the family) I have heard it in their silences.
Certain words don 't come up when
we talk. Words like "our failure" or
even "next year."
The are sharing their plans with me.
B ut theseare not shared plans. She has
applied to East Coast graduate
schools, he has been interviewing for
West Coast jobs. They tell me this
casually, their limbs familiarly entwined on the sofa on the sofa in the
position they adopted a yearago to tell
everyone they were in love.
As an FOF, I quietly take in this
scene. Have my young friends mastered the ability to love in the now? I
ask myself. Or are theymissing the romantic glue of futurism? I wonder if
this is what it's like to beyoung lovers
today.
Sitting with them , I am reminded of
my reading trip through this year's
Valentine cards. I flipped through
dozens of messages. The poetic
pledges of forever love were almost

all marketed for old lovers. The mush
quota was highest for the cards
marked: To Grandma.
But the Valentines for young lovers
were, by and large, carefull y cool.
Some risque, some even raunchy, but
not emotionally risky. The Valentines
I read carried no promises that would
last longer than flowers or chocolate.
They were about love fomow.
The woman who dubbed me the
Friend of this Family stands beside
me. At her son 's age, she had been
married for two years. She was the
example she didn 't want her two children to follow. Married at 22, divorced 10 years later.
"We were too young." How many
times had she said so to the two children of this marriage and divorce.
Children who had watched her start a
career at 32. Children who had
watched their father start another
family at 40. My friend had told her
sons, "Wait a while. Get to know several people, including yourself."
This young man had listened. His
whole college generation had listened
to some variation on that parental or
societal advice. They had learned to
put reason over romance. This young

couple were like the graduates in that
Dow Chemical ad last year. They
were able to say - "I am going to miss
you next year" - and accept parting as
the given at their stage of life.
"So what?" I ask my friend when
we retreatto privacy. "Do you think of
this reasonableness now? Is it not just
what you wanted?"
"Yes," she says, but slowly, and
goes on. "I think they are doing the
right thing. There are too many
changes ahead for them. They are too
young to limit their options - jobs,
school , cities - for each other." Then
she adds quietly, "But what about the
potion to have each other"?
We sit quietly with each other,
thinking about the dramatic reversal
of life patterns in two decades. The
young people we know have a passion
for finding the right work. And caution about finding the right relationship. Those in their twenties pursue
careers whole-heartedly. And embrace love half-heartedly. The half
that is missing may be the part that
pulses with the idea of a future, the
desire for forever.
My friend and I, FOFs for a dozen
or more young people, figure that on

average these began their first love
affairs between 18 and 20. If our small
statistical sample holds up, they are
likely to be single until 28 or 30. The
time lapse between intimacy and
commitment, between first love and
marriage, has expanded enormously
from our twenties to theirs.
In the interim these young may become very good at conditional love,
love "until," love fomow. But it
seems to us that it is hard to love fully
in a limited time zone. Love without a
belief in a future is like a chocolate
heart made of skim milk and Sweet n '
Low.
The timing of our revisionist notion
is probably lousy. This is the Love
Carefully era. A balanced life is more
prized than a sudden disorienting fall
into love. On campuses , this
Valentine's Day was celebrated by
distributing condoms, not commitments.
Yet my friend and I, harbingers of
realism, proponets of caution, survivors of one or more disasters, have
discovered that we are more romantic
than the young lovers in the next
room. We wish them whole-heartedness. And the rich flavor of forever.

myself a fake ID that will let me pass
for 18 years old. This will aliow me to
live with my parents indefinatcl y, to
live off other peoples' income, and to
avoid getting any sort of job. No one
will expect me to be responsible for
anything and I can while away my
time in high school classes and video
arcades.
Of course, I'll have to doctor the
photo so my beard and moustache
look like a bad case of acne.
This new idea of mine has caught on
like wildfire . I've already got orders
from hundreds of adults who want to
be 18 again. Soon you will see the
shopping malls filled with gangs of
40-year-olds wearing T-shirts and
sneakers.
I've heard a few other new ideas recently, some of which arc better than
others. One friend of mine suggested
that since it 's a well-known fact that
wars improve a nation 's economy, we
should declare war on Canada. It 's
close by and we wouldn 't have to
spend much on gas to get there.
The Canadians and Americans
have always gotten along well together, so there's no need for a dangerous sort of war. Each side would
send a few squads of men out into a
field, everyone would fire their rifles
into the air for about ten minutes, then
everyone would break for coffee and
donuts from the Red Cross. The newspapers could then run headlines like,
"Massive Casualties fro m Latest
Enemy Breakthrough" and "Hundreds of Atrocities Reported on Border" and so on.
Another equally viable idea came
from an American friend of mine I
knew in England. Steve was from
Boston.
According to him , the United Stales
should be completely reorganized.
New England , Pennsylvania, Florida,
and California would remain the
same.Therestofthecountry would be
called the Dead Zone collectively,

since Steve claimed no one important
came from there anyway.
Be that as it may, I'd like to counteract this universal loss of new ideas by
leaving you with a few random points
to ponder while you peruse the remaining pages of this prestigious
paper.
-1 think we should have a mandantory death penalty for anyone who
insists on setting up blind dates.
- Did you know that Dr. Who, the
British television show, was and always has been produced as a childrens' show? Seriously!
- The next person who calls me
"Dave" instead of "David" or "Ferns"
will have their kneecaps ripped off
and their eyeballs shipped via Parcel
Post to Mozambique. It's "David".
- We should have a university-wide
grading standard of 90 percent for an
A, 80 percent for a B, etc., so that an
A in Dr. Kooldood' s class isn 't a C
minus in Dr. Goering's class.
- Why is it that whenever you meet
someone from another planet, they
always have a name like George or
Tim?
- Supermarkets should have special
passing lanes in the middle of the
aisles to make it tougher for old ladies
to strategically park their carts where
they can block all traffic.
- Never smoke a cigar after eating
an orange.
-Whenever a communist says "the
will of the people", he means "the
decisions made by the party leadership". When he says "for the good of
the masses", he means "it will benefit
those who support me politically".
When he says "enemy of the people",
he means anyone who makes more
than $20,000 a year.
- Does anyone know how to change
a differential housing on a 1986 Renault Alliance?
- I'm wondering what I' m going to
tell my kids when they ask what I did
when I was in college.

Vienna 's Waldheim pressured to resign
by Misha Glenny

L.A. Times-Washington Post Service

The Air Band Competition held on Friday in Carver Hall hailed "The Village
PhoiobyTJKcmmcrcr
People " as winners of the contest.

The Howard Beach trial

Speculation grew in Vienna Thursday that the two partners in Austria 's
governing coalition , the Socialist
SPO and the Conservative OVP, are
bringing pressure on President Kurt
Waldheim to resign.
Government sources said that on
Monday the president had threatened
to use his constitutional powers to
dismiss the government if it accepted
the historians' commission report on
his wartime past.
The report published earlier this
week by the international commission included a number of damning
comments about Waldheim 's integrity.
In 'a striking statement, the general
secretary of the OVP, Dr. Herbert
Kukacka, said Thursday that the report of the commission had undermined Waldheim 's authority.
This represents a marked shift in
Kukacka's position. He has maintained until now that those parts of the
report which incriminate Waldheim
can be ignored Kukacka added that
the president must take steps to restore his authority.
The leading conservative daily,Die
Presse, published a report Thursday

Youth, 17, gets lighter sentence
by John J. Goldman

L.A. Times-Washington Post Service

After apologizing in court and begging the judge for
mercy, Jason Ladonc, the last of three defendants convicted in the Howard Beach racial attack case, was
sentenced Thursday to five to 15 years in prison.
The sentence, although substantial, was lighter than
those given to previous defendants, Jon Lester, 18, and
Scott Kern , 18.
State Supreme Court Justice Thomas Demakos had
sentenced Lester to the maximum of up to 30 years in
prison and Kern to six to 18 years for their part in
attacking three black men and pursuing one, Michael
Griffith , to his death in traffic in December 1986.
But when Ladone, 17, their companion in the attack,
appeared before Demakos for sentencing he was nervous
and apologetic.
Reading from a prepared statement, Ladone addressed
his remarks directiy to Griffith' s mother, Jean, who sat in
the courtroom.
"I am sorry.-Mrs. Griffith , for your senseless loss,"
Ladone said, before telling his own parents, "I'm sorry,
Mom and Dad, that your lives have been so violendy
overturned."

Ladone, who was 16 at the time of the attack, the
youngest of the three convicted white teen-agers, added he
had done "some serious growing up" since.
Ladone said he had no desire to hurt anyone the night he
went to the birthday party before the incident. After the
party, a group of white teen-agers encountered three black
men whose car had broken down near Howard Beach. First
epithets, then violence ensued.
Griffith was chased onto a highway by youths brandishing tree limbs and a baseball bat, where he was sjruck by a
car. Later, Cedric Sandiford , 37, who had been a passenger
in the car, was severely beaten.
Demakos said that Ladone's character had been "exemplary" before the Howard Beach incident. But the night of
the attack, the judge added, Ladone showed a mind "that
was criminal and bent on violence."
"This cannot go unpunished," Demakos said, noting that
the youth had participated both in the pursuit of Griffithand
the beating of Sandiford.
The judge then sentenced Ladone, who had been found ¦
guilty of assault and manslaughter, tovtwo consecutive
;
terms of 2 years to 7 years in prison for each felony." -"l"">
Of his apology, Mrs. Griffith said, "I hope that he said it
from his heart and not just from his lips."

Teacher *s snow policy revised

Faculty who wish to cancel classes
due lo inclement weather will be responsible for making arrangements lo
notify their students, according to the
revised snowstorm policy, no. 5205.
Robert J. Parrish, vice president for
administration, said the previous policy - with faculty calling the Law Enforcement Office with notification of
class cancellations - proved to be too
cumbersome when many classes
were cancelled.
Under that procedure, the Law
Enforcement Office called university
relations with each class cancellation,
which called a list of radio stations
that had agreed to carry the announcements.
When the list of cancelled classes
became too long on Jan. 26, the radio
stations could no longer announce the
entire list , according to Sheryl
Bryson, director of university relations.
The revised policy states that when
the university is not officiall y closed,
the following procedures should apply:
-When classes are maintained under snow conditions where commut-

Bruce Bridges is scheduled to
speak at 8 p.m. Monday, Feb. 15, in
the Presidents' Lounge of the Kehr
Union Building at Bloomsburg University.
Bridges was scheduled to speak on
Jan. 25, but because of inclement
weather, the lecture was postponed.
Bridges' lecture, titled "African
American contributions to civilization," will focus on the positive impact of African American conttributions to the evolution of civilization .
The lecture, sponsored by the Kehr
Union Program Board, is free and

ing students may face hazardous driving conditions, it should be clearly
understood that those students should
be excused from attendance without
academic penalty.
-Where outlying faculty face hazardous driving conditions to get to
campus, they should either notify
their students of class cancellations
directly, or have an understanding
with the class that when the weather is
hazardous the class will not be held.
The university will reimburse faculty

members for any long distance
charges incurred.
-Off-campus class meetings under
snow conditions also are left to the
discretion of individual faculty members. The faculty member should
make a special effort to phone students in the class, or have an understanding that hazardous snow conditions mean the class is cancelled. The
university will reimburse faculty
members for any long distance
charges incurred.

suggesting that negotiations between
leading members of the SPO and the
OVP behind closed doors were aimed
at agreeing on a replacement for the
president
The moves indicate that the unswerving support for Waldheim typified by the head of the OVP, ViceChancellor Dr. Alois Mock, is coming under pressure from the party's
liberal wing.
The parliamentary leader of the
SPO, Dr . Heinz Fischer, went further
than his colleague, Chancellor Franz
Vranitzk y, has been prepared to go by
admitting that the controversy surrounding Waldheim had become a
burden for the country. He said that
"no one official is more important
than the Austrian Sta'"."
The president met Thursday with
the chancellor , vice-chancellor and
Fischer during a lunch given in
honour of Jordan's King Hussein who
is on a state visit here. The president's

press secretary, Dr. Gerald Christian,
denied that Waldheim's position was
discussed at the meeting but he did
say that the president was preparing a
statement to the nation to be televised
on Sunday or later.
According to government sources,
the coalition leaders reacted to
Waldheim's threat to dismiss them by
issuing a short statement that said
nothing about accepting the
commission's report.
Meanwhile in Belgrade, Dr. Dusan
Plenca, the Yugoslav historian who
claimed to have found the so-called
Spiegel Telegram, finally admitted
that he had never seen the original
document.
The telegram, published in the
West German news magazine, Der
Spiegel , 10 days ago, purported to
prove Waldheim's direct involvement in the deportation of civilian
prisoners in Yugoslavia during the
summer of 1942.

The district public prosecutor in
Belgrade has called for an investigation into Plenca's activities. The historian gave a sworn affidavit to Der
Spiegel attesting to the document's
authenticity, but now officials in
Yugoslavia have agreed with West
German investigators that the telegram was a forgery.
During a press conference in the
Yugoslav capital Thursday,a spokesman for the foreign ministry announced a dramatic reversal of the
government's position concerning
Waldheim.
Contrary to all official statements
hitherto, he said Yugoslavia does not
consider Waldheim 's past to be a
purely internal Austrian affair.
The spokesman also pointed out
that since allegations about
Waldheim's war time role first
emerged two years ago, Yugoslav
officials had avoided all contact with
the Austrian president.

comparable to the national debt. There are very few jobs out there
that require little or no experience. Jobs that you would enjoy, where
the only requirement is a college degree.

Political games figure in the Olympics

by Lynne Ernst
Features Editor
The year was 1969. After a series of
soccer matches between El Salvador
and Honduras in the qualif ying
rounds for the World Cup, El Salvador broke off diplomatic and economic relations with Honduras. The
serious ended in a tie - one win for
each country, but after each match ,
riots among the crowd sparked enmity
among the countries. And soon after a
playoff in Mexico City which Honduras lost, war broke out between the
two states.
This example shows how sports can
exhibit a state's sense of political and
economic strength through prowess
on the field. Nowhere is this more
prevalent in the history of sports than
in the Olympic Games, where the
emphasis on the athlete has been
overlooked .
In 1896, Baron de Coubertin revived the Olympic Games after a span

"Markers ready, get set, draw!"
could be heard in Kehr Union last
Wednesday evening as Program
Board held it 's first "Win, Lose, or
Draw" tournament.
According to John Guenter, Pro*
gram Board recreation committee
chairperson, 16 teams signed up to
play. "We originally were only going
to have 10 teams,but the participation
was so good, we didn 't want to turn
any teams away," Guenter said.
Each team consisted of four.members. Teams alternated drawing pictures for three rounds and then played
the speed round. The group with the
most points at the end of the rounds is
the winning team.
Hosted by comedian Pat O'Donnel,
"*;
the tournament narrowed down to
"? four teams who will participate in the
K
final rounds of "Win , Lose or Draw
on Wed., Feb.,17 at 8 p.m. in Multi C
in the Kehr Union building.
The final four teams are:
Team 1: Robin Hoban,Joe Peterlin,
"^ John Derdarian and Tom Haflett
Team 2: Bill Sunski, Jerry Hybki,
Kevin Kundratic and Paul Nicolo
Team 3: Tony Dunn , Peg Weik, Art
Sweeney and Donna Ciero
Team 4, Gigi Davison, Bob Finch,
Gerry Moore, and Mark Simmons
Approximately 120 BU students
showed up to play or support players
in the game, which is ju st part of the
Program Board Winterfest activities.
Guenter says, "The whole idea
behind Winterfest is to give the students something to do in cold
*3 weather."
"And last semester," Guenter
"
added,"the 30 members of the recreation committee got together, brainstormed, and realized the "Win, Lose,

cott, the '76 Olympiad showed the
United States and Russia vying for
selection of the site for future Olympics. This time Los Angeles and
Moscow were the only bidders for the
1980 Games , but events at the World
University Games held in Moscow
had sent much protest against
Moscow as the choice for the 1980
games.
At the University Games the Israeli
athletes were harrassed by Russians.
It was reported that Soviet officials
did little to restrain the mobs that
harried the Israelis. The Soviet government had a problem. On one hand
they wanted to show they could
handle major international events. On
the other hand they, felt they could not
tolerate such open support of the Israeli presence by the Russian Jews. As
a result they invited Yassir Arafat to
the Games, the leader of the Palestine
Liberation Organization.
In the beginning, the Soviets allowed the Israeli athletes and the
Soviet Jews to socialize, but then
Soviet officials isolated the Israeli
team, citing security measures as justification. Yigon Allon, the Israeli
foreign minister, called the Soviet
action "racism and anti-Seminism"
and said the Soviet Union should not
hold the 1980 Olympics.
Similar remarks were being made
in the United States where 40 members of congress sent a letter to IOC

since they had not competedin the
Olympics since 1912. Instead, Russia
had competed mainly in their own
country. But by 1948, Russia was
interested in taking part in the world
of international sports.
The question of Soviet participation in the Olymp ics was involved
with the question of Eastern European
participation. Beyond that, the real
issue was the presence in the Olympics of Communists and the Communist countries. The fear of mixing
politics with sports was apparent.
But for the 1948 Games, the issue of
Soviet participation solved itself. The
Soviets, failing to form a national
Olympic committee, and not asking
for recognition, simply did not participate.
Politics has also been extremely
apparent in the Olympic games in the
past 15 years. In the 1976 Games
when the American world-record
holding discus thrower Mac Wilkens
embraced the second place East German instead of his fellow teamatc who
took third, the American public and
media condemned Wilkin 's act as
"treasonous." The reason: politics.
In the same year, South Africa
threatened to boycott the Olympics
stating that the United Nations had
violated resolutions condemning
South African racial policies. Also,
South Africa and New Zealand were
at odds.

In the summer of 1931,when the XI
Olympiad were awarded to Berlin, a
conflict arose with the Nazi' s, who
were only months away from coming
to power in Germany. And while the
Los Angeles Olympics of 32' were
underway, the Nazis, under the leadership of Hitler denounced the games
as an "infamous festival dominated b'y
Jews" and said that the new Germany
would have nothing to do with them.
But during the next four years, a
struggle developed inside of Germany for control of the Games. It was
evident that the Nazis did not understand the nature of the Olympics. The
Nazis insisted that the 1936 Games be
controlled by the German government. Luckily, this was never allowed
to happened.
Also, the Olympic Games of 1948
showed stugglc among the nations as
the location for the games was a
heated controversy. London, devastated by the war, was in short supply
of housing and transportation. Critics
of the London location questioned the
ability to hold such an extravaganza
under adverse conditions. Others said
the Games in London would promote
world amity. The London Olympic
games controversy showed postwar
conditions that exceeded the scope of
sports.
One problem the International
Olympic Committee (IOC) also had
to deal with during '48 was Russia 's
participation in the Olympic Games,

Taylor Dayne a non-conformist singer

by Ruch Reih!
LA. Times-Washington Post Service
Taylor Dayne, whose dance single
'Tell It to My Heart'' is a Top 5 pop
hit, is part sophisticated lady and part
Dead End Kid. At a recent interview
here, the petite singer, wearing a conservative suit, looked elegant and
angelic at first. But that was just a
veneer. It did not take long for the real
Dayne to emerge, the fast-talking,
sassy, no-nonsense New Yorker who
can cuss like a sailor. "What'd you
expect, a nun?" she cracked. "I'm
from New York. It's a jungle. If you 're
dainty, you die."
She was just warming up. "I'm
no pushover," Dayne continued. "I
can'tafford to be. The record business
ain't Disneyland, you know. I've already dealt with people who've tried
to rip me off. I don 't have a chip on my
shoulder. I'm a nice person. ... Just
don 't cross me." Dayne, 25, has been
on the road promoting her first Arista
Records album, "Tell It to My
Heart," which has zoomed to No. 46

on the Billboard pop chart in three
weeks thanks to the radio exposure for
the single.
The LP's success is somewhat
suprising because Dayne does not fit
the current trend in female dancemusic singers: teen-agers with sweet,
yearning, underpowered voices like
Debbie Gibson and Tiffany. Dayne
sings like she talks, lustily and defiantl y. Basically, she is a white-soul
singer.
"We signed her because she
could really sing,"said Arista's President Clive Davis in a separate interview. "We were impressed with the
passion in her voice." Dayne revels in
attacking a song with that unbridled
passion. A large part of the appeal of
her hit single is her fervent vocals. But
at first, she recalled , producer Ric
Wake wanted her to sing "Tell It to My
Heart" softly and sweetly because
that was the trendy sound. "I tried but
I couldn 't do it," she recalled. "It
didn't sound right. Finally, I said I
want to sing it with some power, some

Those leen-aged singers are as exciting as wallpaper* I couldn 't sing the
song like that. I had to do il the right
way. I didn 't care if it sold onl y 10
copies."
Dayne did not record the "Tell It to
My Heart" sing le for Arista. She and
producer Wake brought the single,
already finished , to the label. Then ,
after making a big splash on the club
circuit , the single became a pop hit.
That is when Arista signed her to rushrecord an album. "We did it in just six
weeks," Dayne recalled with a shudder: "We were working 'round the
clock. What a nightmare. "
Though it feature s some dance
tracks , "Tell It to My Heart" is not a
dance album. Arista 's chief executive
Davis preferred it to be well-balanced: "We didn 't want to be categorized right away," he said. "We
wanted to present a diversified picture
of this artist. Just because she had one

in 1957. Fuel injection was dropped as
a passenger car option after 1958 but
continued to be used for high perform ance applications in the Corvette until
the end of 1965.
While Chevrolet was still tinkering
with increasingly powerful Corvette
F.I. systems in 1962, Oldsmobile, a
fellow General Motors division, in-

troduced the Jetfire Sports Coupe
mid-year. The Jetfire came standard
with a 185 hp. 324, but the real news
was an optional 215 cu. in. turbocharged aluminum block V8 called
the Turbo-Rocket. This engine was
misleadingly described as giving
"economy when it is wanted and
flashing performance when it is
needed." Economy was possible but
perfomance was less than flashing
with a lenghty 0 to 60 time of 8.5
seconds and a 107 mph. top speed.
Another drawback was the unreliable turbocharg ing system. Olds had
resorted to an unusual technique of injecting a water/alcohol mixture into
the engine to cure the problem of
excessive carbon buildup on test versions of the Jetfire. This method was
shown to be less than successful,
which resulted in the engine being
dropped from production in 1965.
Oldsmobile also led the way in reintroducing front-wheel drive with

protesting Moscow as the site of
the 1980 Olympics. But this was to no
avail. Moscow was chosen.
The 1980 Olympics were not without political turmoil. Athletes, sports
officials and Olympic enthusiasts
were worrying about the fate of the
Moscow Summer Olympics. Led by
the United States, Western leaders
played a type of pinball with the
Games as their main response to
Russia's invasion of Afghanistan in
December of 1979. Unless the Soviet
Union withdrew its forces , Western
leaders threatened to boycott the
MoscowSummer Games. The Soviet
Union didn't retreat and Western
countrieswere forced to carry through
with their threat.
The above examples are not a comprehensive list of the political factors
that have been important in past
Olympic Games. These specific examples just site the prevalence of
politics in the Gaines.
Count Henri De Baillet Latour once
said, "May therebe an overwhelming
response of athletes to this call [to the
Olympiad].It can betaken for granted
that magnificent contests will result
when they measurethe sttcngh and

ideas there may grow a more profound
understanding of their varying points
of view, so that these peaceful com-

of peace."Let 's hope that this goal can
be achieved at the 88' Games.

pos. She 's not one-dimensional."
Dayne also does not blindly do as
she is told. She rejected some of die
songs Arista executives wanted her to
record . "I' m no puppet," she said. "I
fought for what I wanted. On some of
the songs, they were right. They were
good songs. But on others we had to
work miracles to make them sound
decent."
She explained how she bartered
with the label executives, singing
some of their selections in return for
the addition of some of her choices.
"When I heard the demo (demonstration record) of 'I'll Always Love
You,' I hated it ," she said. "I said:
'It's a Whitney (Houston) throwaway
(Houston 's also on Arista); It's a
mayonnaise-type song, with no guts.
But I said: 'I'll sing it if you let me sing
'Carry Your Heart.' That 's what happened."
Is she pleased with the album now?
"Yeah, sure," she replied. "But it
would have a little more depth on it if
I had done things the way I wanted."

Early GM cars were ahead of their time

by Glenn Schwab
Features Editor
The old saying "There's nothing
new under the sun" is especially true
when applied to automotive history.
While developmentslike front-wheel
drive, turbochargingand fuel injection would seem to be modern advances, they haveall been used before
with varying degrees of success.
Ramjet, the first mass-produced
fuel injection system, was developed
by Rochester Carburetor for
Chevrolet's 1957 283 cu.in. engine.
A "fuelie" could be ordered in anything from a plain One-Fifty utility
sedan to the Corvette. There were two
fuel-injected 283s, one rated at 250
hp. and a high compression version
that cranked out 283 hp. This allowed
Chevy to make the claim of producing
one of the first engines to reach the
long sought after goal of one horsepower per cubic inch of engine displacement.

This airband called Vixen performed well enough to take third place Friday night.

the 1966 Toronado, the first such car
since the pre-World War II Cord 810/
812. ThcToro was an instant winner.
Its combination of traditional American big-car power and size with the
traction and handling advantages of
front-wheel drive enabled it to sell
40,000 units first year out, making a
permanent place for itself in the Olds
lineup.
Though the Toronado was mainly a
luxury car, its aggressive design was
backed up by an equally aggressive
engine. The 1966 model came with a
385 hp. 425 cu.in. motor, giving it
more power than most musclecars of
the time. The Toro really came into its
own in 1970 with the W-34 option.
This equipped it with a 400 hp. 455,
dual exhausts and a modified TurboHydro transmission, making it one of
the best performing luxury cars ever
made.

If it seems a little silly, it must be the Winter Olympics
by Mike Kupper

LA. Times-Washington Post Service

¦

So what's going on here in Calgary?
Well, if it's Olympic time, it must
be the sill y season.
Sure enough, even before the lighting of the Olympic flame, it hasbegun.
It wouldn't be the Olympics, otherwise.
Going into Saturday's opening
ceremony, the leading candidate for
the foolishness gold medal is the U.S.
bobsled team. This is in the best traditions of the bobsy boys, for whom
controversy seems a way of life.
In 1980 atLake Placid, for instance,
former Olympic hurdler Willie Davenport was a late addition to the team,
despite protests that he was not quali-

country who would be better sliders
than the guys sitting there, who happened to be two-thirds of the U.S.
team.
So now it's 1988 and Willie Gault,
sometime bobsledder and full-time
Chicago Bears wide receiver, has
been added to the Olympic bobsled
team despite protests that he joined the
team too late, taking someone else's
spot. Gault, however, qualified on the
third sled and only the first two are
allowed to compete, so if Gault were
to ride here, it would be strictly as an
alternate.
Both U.S. drivers, Brent Rushlaw
and Matt Roy, have said any number
of times that they have no intention of
making room for Gault on their sleds.
Even so, Don LaVigne of Albany,
N.Y., the young man who was
bumped to make room for Gault, after
having been in training since October,
took such exception to the whole
business that he did the American
thing. He hired a lawyer.
All week long, the controversy
raged. First, LaVigne's lawyer asked

for binding arbitration. Gault, meanwhile, said that he was a bona fide
member of the team , duly elected and
sworn, and that the kind of resentment
he was feeling from his teammates
was nothing compared with the kind
of tension he is accustomed to living
with as a Chicago Bear.
The United States Olympic Committee and the American bobsled federation, finally agreed to "pursue a
course of action" to get LaVigne back
on the team without disturbing
Gault 's place. Thursday, they announced that the international bobsledding federation and International
Olympic Committee had given the
U.S. team special permission to use an
extra slider, 13 instead of the usual 12.
What apparently has been going on
here is that 'the U.S. federation , given
a chance to promote itself through a
pro athlete of Gault's stature, chose to
make the most of it. Bobsledding,
after all, gets precisus little publicity.
This time, it got a Utile more than it
had bargained for.
It's understandable that LaVigne

would be upset but the fact is that he
wasn't going to ride, either, since he
was only an alternate. So this whole
siiiy business was about two guys who
will get a chance not to compete in the
Olympics.
Then there was a silver-medal silly
observation by Prince Alexandre de
Merode, the Belgian who rules the
medical end of the IOC.
In Los Angeles, there was a recent
nurses' walkout. Here in Calgary, the
nurses are now on strike.
De Merode has taken great offense
at that.
"I consider it -1 don 't say criminal
- but very, very bad," he said. "It
shows these people don 't have the
interests of the athletes (at heart). ... In
my mind , it is crazy to have a (strike)
at the moment of the Games. It is
unacceptable because they are using
the Olympic Games to pressure."
Come on, Princey, get real. The
athletes are probably the healthiest
people here. What about the folks who
live here who really need medical
help?

Besides, people have been using
the Games to their own ends for some
time now. It's sort of the accepted
thing. Or if not quite accepted, at least
expected.
And commercial excesses have also
reached the silly stage. How silly?
Wednesday night, reporters returned to the media village and discovered that press releases had been
left in their rooms.
What could be this important message?
How about this? "Looking for the
scoop on Calgary behind the scenes?
Take a lead from John Lavender, the
Garbage Man of the Olympics. Lavender has spent the last two years
coordinating the hows, wheres and
whens of Olympic garbage. ...Give us
a call if you'd like to talk with Lavender. Besides being a garbage pro, he's
also an articulate, humorous interview."
Just what the world has been waiting for - an articulate, humorous garbage pro.
Let the Games begin!

by Diane Stoneback

Calgary got the bid seven years ago.
He noted , "Creating menus and
working out the recipes has been
going on in earnest for the last three
years because the Olympic Committee wanted the material in place 12
months in advance of the opening."
Although ordinary, sedate noncompetitors often take breakfast
lightly or skip it altogether, John
Scanlan, manager of food services for
the XV Olympic Winter Games Organizing Committee and vice president of special projects for ARA Services, said, "Olympic athletes rarely
miss a meal. As a matter of fact, they
attend all the meals and then some."
Scanlan bases his statements on a
world of experience gleaned from
managing food services for some 14
Olympic activities since the Mexico
City games in 1968.
Indeed, each
athlete has to do some serious eating to
consume the 5,5 00 calories daily per
person (more than double what the
average adult consumes) food service
personnel expect each athlete to consume.
The quantities can be amazing,
considering that the athletes are nutri^
tion-conscious
and avoid obviously
calorie-laden foods that don't supply
the nutrients they want.
Griffiths commented, "Today 's
athletes are highly disciplined when it
comes to their diet. Such foods as
Danish and doughnuts are not big
sellers here, but we still put a few out
on the tables."

fiths, "They really want the potassium
the bananas supply."
Griffiths said the menus had been
planned to provide varied fare at all
three meals, in an attempt to avoid
what he calls the "monotony factor."
No one will have to eat the same foods
time and time again. "We don 't want
the pressures of competition to lead to
complaints about the food ," he commented.
The constant variety of food available is deliberately intended to satisfy
the tastes of people from 52 different
«
countries.
Noted Scanlan , "Representatives of
the various countries used to want to
see all the menus, but our reputation
over the years has made it such that
when some officials hear we re doing
the food service, they don 't even
bother checking the menus.
"We make sure all the food has a
high acceptance level and will prepare
national dishes on request."
The food service personnel also
have all but usurped the function of
team chefs. Only a few teams, including the Italians, still have their own
chefs to prepare special foods and to
cook party fare for medal winners.
Just a sampling of the breakfast foods
ordered gives one an idea of how
monumentalGriffiths ' task is. During
the games, he expects the athletes to
consume 12,000 gallons of orange
juice, 10,500 dozen eggs, 63,000
pounds of beef, 21,000 dozen rolls and
2,500 pounds of Canadian bacon.

He noted, Wherever possible, we
are trying to spotlight Canadian foods
as well as foods contributed by official
sponsors. To that end, the athletes will
see plenty of Canadian bacon, seafood
and turkey as well as buffalo sausage
and rabbit pies. The beef for which
Calgary ranches are known will be in
evidence from the steaks served at
breakfast to the beefburgers served at
In
the all-night snack counters."
just one five-day period, eggs will be
served poached, fried , scrambled,
scrambled with Swiss cheese, hard
and soft boiled and in Cheddar cheese,
mushroom, western and Creole omelets.
Canadian back bacon, beef
sausage, fried kippers, grilled sirloin,
chopped beefsteak,poached haddock,
kidneys, grilled ham , regular bacon,
grilled ham, pan-fried trout, veal liver,
corned beef hash and finnan haddock
will be the breakfast meats served
during the same time period.
There will also be pancakes, blueterry waffles and French toast on the
list of breakfast entrees.
In case the lengthy breakfast menus
aren'tenough to suit the athletes, there
will also be 27 kinds of breads, 17
varieties of cheeses and cold meats
and a massive salad bar available all
day long.
Three kinds of milk,
Ovaltine, hot chocolate, cocoa, regular and decaffeinated coffee, two
kinds of tea, soft drinks and assorted
fruit juices will be available to wash
down all the food consumed by the
athletes.

fied, that he had joined the team too
late and that better sliders had been left
off the team to make room for him.
In what surely must rank as one of the
most bizarre press conferences of all
time, Gary Sheffiel d, then the coach of
the U.S. team, told how he had failed
to talk No. 1 driver Bob Hickey out of
using Davenport. Hickey, Davenport
and the rest of the No. 1 crew, incidentally, skipped that press conference,
apparently in protest.
It was among other incredible
things Sheffield said on that day,
when he added that, although Davenport was a talented athlete, it really
took no particular athletic talent to be
a bobsledder and that there were
probably lots of people throughout the

Feeding the athletes should be an event
LA.. Times-Washington Post Service

Feeding the athletes truly is an
Olympic event for those in charge of
food service for the international
event.
No strangers to the amount of food
required to supply energy for exercise
during rugged winter weather, the
Canadians have spent years planning
to supply the mountain of food that
will be available to the 2,000 athletes
and their coaches.
At breakfast, they'll be eating everything from the Calgary pioneer specialty of pancakes, sausages and
steaks to lighter foods , including lots
of juices and fresh fruits.
The breakfast table lineup for
Olympic athletes won 't include
Wheaties, the "Breakfast of Champions," but , according to Olympic food
service personnel, it will include such
other cereals as All Bran , corn flakes,
b/an flakes, Raisin Bran , Rice
Krispies, Special K, granola, Meusli,
tritical flakes and bulgar.
Hot cereals will be Cream of Wheat.
oatmeal, oat bran and a Canadian
brand called Sunny Boy.
Even the hungriest of lugers, bob
sledders, hockey players, downhill
skiers and speed and figure skaters
should be able to get all the energy
they need to go for gold.
Besides the smorgasbord's worth of
fare offered at breakfast, lunch and
dinner, there will also be ample fare
available 24 hours a day. Sampling
everything available would be
tougher than training for the biathlon .
Barrie Griffiths , food services director for the University of Calgary
and Olympic Village food service
manager, said that planning the food
for this event began almost on the day

Fresh vegetables and fruits, on the
other hand, are best sellers. Although
the athletes make quick work of
grapefruit , pineapple, cantaloupe,
grapes and strawberries, they are particularly fond of bananas. Noted Grif-

No fast food j omts for these athletes

by Pat Calabria

LA. Times-Washington Post Service

A walk through the Olympic Village is something out of a storybook
fantasy. It's a trip to the Gingerbread
House or a journey down the Yellow
Brick Road.
It 's nestled almost out of sight between frozen slopes on the sprawling
campus of the University of Calgary,
hidden on one side by the immense
speed skating oval, but it's the first
Olympic Village contained entirely
under one roof. The athletes don't
ever have to go outside and some
couldn't go if they wanted to.
"I've been here three days," said
U.S. bobsledder Mike Wasko, "and I
haven't found the exit yet."
From the outside, the complex has
the look of anoffice building, all glass
and steel, and inside, there is a labyrinth of corridors still smelling of
fresh paint and connecting the dormitories, the video arcade, the amphitheater, the discotheque and the international cafeteria with 17 varieties of
bread.
"You got food here coming out of
your goozaloo," said Michael Aljoe,
Wasko's bobsled teammate. Aljoe

looks as the cafeteria.
There's an international menu,
everything from hamburgers to raspberry mousse. Pizza is served in the
disco until 10 p.m. and the cafeteria is
open 21 hours a day, which the athletes think is almost enough.
"Andit'sall greatfood," Aljoesaid.
"You can put on some serious calories
here if you don't watch it. Man, if we
lived here all the time, you'd have a
big bunch of fat people on your
hands."
Beyond the cafeteria are the three
cinemas-the Gold, the Silver and the
Bronze, naturally - showing "Legal
Eagles" and "Blazing Saddles," and
behind them are the six gymnasiums,
the weight rooms with rows and rows
of bicycles, the six-lane running track,
the hair salon, a branch of the Royal
Bank, the medical clinic, the gift shop
and the squash and racquetball courts.
In the research laboratory, where
athletes can have their performances
analyzed by computer, there is a sign
that reads, "Gold Luck." There's a
photography studio where they can
have their pictures taken and sent back
home, too.
For those who get hungry walking
to the cafeteria, there are two snack
bars along the route.
Beyond the atrium is the corridor
that leads past the entertainment cen-

ter to the athletes suites - a living
room between two bedrooms in dormitories normally occupied by students.
"The rooms are terrific , too," British bobsledder Audley Richards said.

Los Angeles Times
Hank Builough is back in the
National Football League as an
assistant coach with the Green
Bay Packers, and that's good
news if you like malapropos.
At Buffalo, Builough was establishing himself as the Yogi
Bcrra of the NFL before the Bills
fired him as head coach in 1986.
Sample quotes:
-"We'll have a good work ethnic."
-"He did it on the spare of the
moment."
-"He's making improvement

-"We keep beating ourselves,
at
but wc^rc getting better it."
-"It took the sails right out of
our wind."
Add Builough: Of Bills owner
Ral ph Wilson , he said, "I'm not a
yes guy. He knows that when I
hired him."
Asked to rate the 1985 college
running backs, he said, "Well ,
you 've got that Jackson kid at
Auburn and that Bonaparte kid at
Navy."
Trivia Time: What put a
damper on the Soviet Union 's
overall medal victory in the 1984
Winter Olympics? (Answer below.)
Add 1984: Asked about the biathlon , which combines skiing
and shooUng, U.S. biaihletc Don
Nielsen said, "Skiing and shooting is a marriage made in hell. It's
a physical contradiction of impossible proportions. It's like
turning from a rabbit to a rock and
back again ."
When teammate Martin Hagen
finished 53rd in the20-kiIomclcr
biathlon , Nielsen said, "His gyroscope went afoul on one of the
downhills , and he went on an
unscheduled tour of the shrubbery. There is talk of having to
file an environmental impact
statement on him before the next
race."
If Michigan makes it to the

Bloomsburg keeps slim playoff hopes alive
Victory over Cheyney
gives Huskies 4-3 mark
Bloomsburg University put five
players in double figures and held off
a 51 point performance by the
Wolves' Clarence Green en route to a
102-93 conference victory over
Cheyney Saturday night at Nelson
Fieldhouse.
Green, the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference's leading scorer, tallied 51 points on 17 field goals, including five three pointers, and 12-14
shooting from the free throw line to
lead all scorers.
But the story of the night was the
balanced Husky offense. With Joe
Stepanski and Johnny Williams held
to only six and two points respectively, it was Craig Phillips and Kevin
Reynolds picking up the slack. The
duo had 36 points between them.

. Also doing some heavy darnage on
the Wolves' defense was Alex Nelcha
and Dave Carpenter on the inside.
Nelcha, who has been playing some
incredible basketball his last five
games, led the Huskies with 25 points.
Carpenter chipped in 14. The other
Husky in double fi gures was Jim
Higgins with 10.
Cheyney hit two more field goals
than the Huskies, including four more
three-pointers, but Bloom sburg took
an amazing 50 shots from the charity
stripe and hit 38 of them, compared to
just 21-27 for the visiting Wolves.
The victory was important for the
Huskies as it kept them mathematically in the race for the Eastern Conference playoffs at 5-4. Cheyney
dropped to 7-2.

The next year, Nate Blackwell arrived as a freshman guard and the
rebuilding process began. Like
Chaney, Blackwell was a city kid , a
Public League player of the year.One
year later, Howard Evans won that
award and also decided to go to
Temple. One by one Chaney put the
pieces together and the victories began to pile up: 25, 26, 25 and then 32
last year. Blackwell has graduatedbut
in his place in the lineup is freshman
Mark Macon, as gifted a freshman
guard as you are likely to find in this or
any other year. The Owls are 19-1
and, in this season when everyone is
beatable, losses by the top four teams
last week landed them suddenly and
stunningly at No. 1.
"I realize this is a great thing for the
school," Chaney said after Temple
had made its debut as No. 1a dazzling
one with a near-perfect98-86 victory
over Villanova on a night when the
Wildcats would have beaten almost
anyone else. "But the last couple of
days I ve been hiding out. I can t get
any work done because the phone
won 't stop ringing. I can't go home
because all my neighbors want to
congratulate me. It's been impossible."
He grinned, loving every minute.
"We won tonight, so maybe we'll get
to stay No. 1 for one more day."
Actually, the Owls may retain their
ranking for a while. One major roadblock remains on the schedule - next
Sunday's game at North Carolina but beyond that Temple should not
lose before the end of the regular
season. Which brings up a sore point
with Chaney and his team. "People
don't want to give us respect," Evans
said, "because they say we play a
bunch of hash-house teams."
Better known as the Atlantic 10.
Although Rhode Island and West
Virginia have glossy records, those
records have been built largely by
beating up on other league teams such
as Rutgers, Massachusetts, St.
Bonaventure, Duquesne and George
Washington. Temple cannot be
blamed for the imbalance of its
league; but the time to silence critics is
March. The Owls have yet to do that.
March has been a difficult month
for Chaney. For four straight seasons
the Owls have lost in the second round
of the NCAA Tournament. The first
three losses were understandable:
top-ranked North Carolina; topranked Georgetown; second-ranked
Kansas. But last year's 72-62 loss to
Louisiana State, a team with 14
losses, was both frustrating and baffling. No one at Temple wants a repeat.
At least partly because of that,
Chaney cut his team off from the
media as soon as it became apparent
this week that the Owls were going to
ascend to the No. 1spot. He felt they
had become a little bit of the media
darlings last season and didn 't want a
repeat.After Wednesday's victory, he
lifted "the gag order," as he put it, for
everyone but the freshmen. At
Temple, "the freshmen" means Macon. .
"I have a responsibility to Mark,"
Chaney said. "He is an immensely

Chaney s discipline big reason why Temple is #1

LA. Times-Washing 'on Post Service

John Chaney, the coach who has
transformed Temple University from
a memberof the Big Five to a member
of college basketball's elite, is a man
who believes in discipline. To put it
mildly. There are many stories here on
the city 's north side that illustrate his
penchant for cracking down on those
who do not do as they are supposed to
do.
His early-morning practices are
legendary; players go to bed hearing
that foghorn voice ringing in their ears
and wake up at 6 a.m. hearing it all
over again. His disdain for those who
do not take care of the basketball is
such that Owls forward Mike
Vreeswyk claims that Chaney will not
even speak Isiah Thomas' name since
the gifted Detroit guard threw The
Pass that Larry Bird intercepted last
May.
To understand what Chaney has
done in taking Temple to the No. 1
ranking in both wire service polls for
the first time in school history, one has
to know just how seriously his penchant for discipline is taken by everyone at Temple. That's everyone, starting with the man who hired him six
years ago, Temple President Peter
Liacouras.
Last year, we were on the bus
riding from the hotel to the arena at
West Virginia," Liacouras remembered , "and the bus caught on fire. "
Chaney has a strict rule against talking on his bus en route to games . The
players are supposed to be concentrating on the task that lies ahead of them
and anyone else riding the bus, president or passerby, also adheres to the
Chaney edict of silence. "The bus is
on fire," Liacouras said, "and John is
up front and doesn't notice. The players are coughing, I'm coughing, but
no one would dare say a word. If John
hadn 't noticed the smoke finally,
(point guard) Howard Evans might
have choked to death because no one
was about to open their mouths."
Chaney laughs with delight when
he talks about the incident. "Now
that," he said gleefull y, "was concentration."
And discipline.
To people here, Chaney's story is
now a familiar one. He was the Public
League player of the year here in 1952
and went on to become something of
an NAIA legend during his college
career at Bethune-Cookman and still
tells stories of those days barnstorming through the South playing teams
with players old enough to be his
father, then getting on the bus to ride
six hours to another game.
Chaney was 50 before he got a
chance to coach Division I. He had
built a Division II power during 10
years at Cheyney State, winning 225,
losing 59 and winning a national
championship in 1978. Liacouras had
been Temple's president only six
weeks when, to the surprise of most
people, he named Chaney to replace
Don Casey as the basketball coach.
Chaney promptly went 14-15 his first
year, the first - and last - time one of
his teams finished with a losing record.

talented player but I don 't wan t someone coming in and dragging him off in
left field somewhere."
Actually, Macon may be better
equipped lo handle the ballyhoo than
most seniors. He is a remarkably
poised player, mature beyond his
years in every way except for his baby
face. "He uses screens like a pro,"
Villanova Coach Rollie Massimino
said after Macon had buried his team
wilh 31 points. "I can 't ever remember seeing a freshman have a game
like that. He's good but I didn 't think
he was that good. But then , I didn 't
think anyone was that good."
Chaney has pieced this team together carefull y. When Blackwell
graduated, he called Evans in and told
him after three years as a shooting
guard he would have to become a
point guard. "I didn't give him any
choice," Chaney said. "I figured it
was him or Mark and since Howie's
heard me scream for three years, he
could handle it better."
Everything with Temple starts with
the point guard , so Evans' transformation was important. "He had to

Icam not to act like a bumper car,"
Chancy said. That is a Chaneyism,
one of dozens the coach uses. A
bumper car is a player who gets so
shot-hungry that he starts bouncing
off walls to try to get a shot off. The
former bumper car has responded by
averaging 8.7 assists a game.
Wednesday, he had 20 - two shy of the
NCAA record - and one turnover.
"You had a turnover?" Chaney said
to Evan s in mock horror. "That's ridiculous, Howie. What the hell is
wrong with you?"
Chaney regards the turnover as
something approaching sacrilege.
Temple had six in a run-and-gun
game Wednesday and averages less
than nine a game. In this day and age
that is nothing short of amazing.
The guards run the game under
Chaney 's baton. Vreeswyk is the third
outside shooter and shot-blocker Tim
Perry and wide-body Ramon Rivas
supply the power inside. The question
mark is the bench, young and thin.
But that is a month away. Chaney
knows that is when his most serious
work will come. But for the moment,

the school on the north side is in the
midst of a celebration. After the victory Wednesday, the PA boomed a
tape of the song "Celebrate," and students and alumni lingered long into
the night to sing it again and again.
McGonigle Hall has become THE
place to be on North Broad Street so
much so that Liacouras' dream of a
12,000-seat arena (McGonigle seats
4,500) might come true.
But, although everyone around
them basks in all this, the coach and
the players change nothing. Practice
is still at 6 a.m.; the foghorn voice
booms when someone makes a mistake and no one talkson the bus, fire or
no fire. "Coach Chaney is never
done,"Evans said. "He never relaxes.
You do one thing, there's always
something else to do. Now that he's
seen that we can be No. 1, he's going
to want it again and again."
Evans paused and smiled. "What's
really going to be bad is next year. I
really feel sorry for those guys. After
this, Coach is going to want it all."
Right now,for Chaney and Temple,
it isn't that far away.

The Bloomsburg University men s
and women's swimming and diving
teams ended their dual meet season on
a positive note on Wednesday by
defeating West Chester.
The women swam to an easy victory over the Rams by a score of 13078.
Sue Rueppel, Tina Wasson, Chris
Pierie and Carol Lohr set the pace in
the first event of the meet, winning the
medley relay with a time of 4:20.75.
Taking second in the same event was
the Bloomsburg team of Deb Legg,
Anne Fritz, Kim Stasko, and Amy
Groome with a time of 4:20.78.
Throughout the entire meet the
Bloomsburg women dominated the
events. Kim Nelson swam to three
first place victories in the 1000 freestyle, the 200 butterfly and the 400
freestyle realy.
Karen Pfisterer dominated the
sprinting events winning the 50 and
100 freestyle and the 400 frestyle relay.
Tina Wasson was victorious in the
200 individual medley and the 200
breaststroke. Deb Legg was a triple
winner adding to the medley with first
places in the 200 and 500 freestyle.
Wendy Moyer added her diving
expertise by picking up victories on
both the one and three meter boards.
The women sport an 8-3 record
going into the conference meet next
week at Clarion and according to head
coach Dave Rider, the outlook is very
positive for the meet. He is hoping his
women will display one of their most
powerful showings yet and capture
the title of conference champions.
Beth Roeder is seeded first nationally in the 200 butterfly and is hoping
to lengthen the margin at the state
meet. Deb Legg, Kim Nelson, Karen
Pfisterer and Kim Youndt are also

national hopefuls from the women s
team.
The men's team didn't have it as
easy as the women. They began the
meet with a victory in the medley
relay consisting of Brian Duda, John
Schneider, Drew Wallace and Dave
Danner clocking in a time of 3:50.83.
West Chester finished second and
Bloomsburg third.
Throughout the entire meet it was
touch an go with each event. Winning
impressive victories for Bloomsburg
were, Duda in the 200 backstroke,
Bob Potter in the 1000 freestyle, and
Ed McElhiney in the 200
breaststroke.

Others adding support to the team
with second place finishes were Jack
Carr, Todd McAllister, Mark Moore
and Andy Savareese, many of whom
qualified for the state conference
meet.
The West Chester meet came down
to the wire and the 400 freestyle relay,
with Bloomsburg needing a second
and third place to win and the Rams
needinga first and third to wrap up the
victory.
Bloomsburg was fortunate to pull
out the narrow 99-98 win.
The men will also be preparing for
the PSAC meet and are hoping to
qualify a few for nationals.
