School copes in wake of suicide
by John Risdon
News Editor
Bloomsburg University is recovering from the shock caused by the suicide of Brian Rockovich , a 19 yearold Mounlour Hall Resident Advisor,
by offering counseling to students affected by the tragic incident.
Director of Residence Life Jennie
Carpenter and Director of Counselling John Scrimgeour are coordinating counseling efforts during the
next few weeks to help ease the tension created by the suicide, which was
the first on-campus suicide in more
than 20 years.
One point made by Sheryl Bryson,
university public relations director,
is that counseling is available for
students at all times.
Dorm meetings are also being
scheduled so that RAs can discuss
and help dorm residents recover
from the incident.
Rockovich was discovered Monday evening by another Mountour
R.A. who was checking to see why
the student had not been seen during
the day. Bloomsburg Law Enforcement officers were notified at 10:46

p.m. and Deputy Coroner Wilma
Webster pronounced him dead at
11:35 p.m.
According to the official report a
suicide note to his parents was found
in the room. Rockovich died from a
self-inflicted gunshot to his right
temple fired from a .22-caliber revolver. He was discovered face down
on his bed.
Residents from third floor Montour
said that they were friends with
Rockovich and that he appeared to be
"very stable. No one thought he was
emotionally unstable. We didn 't hear
the gunshot and had no clue he would
do something like this."
One resident added , "I wish he
could have come and talked to us.
Maybe we could have helped him. I
don 't think any problem has to go that
far."
Rockovich was a business majoring
in accounting with a 2.89 overall cum.
He was a member of Future Business
Leaders of America, the Weightlifting Club, and the Accounting Club.
Through an open letter to the university community President Harry
Ausprich announced that he is appre-

Attendance poor for
young Democrats
political forum

News Editor
Fifteen people attended a forum
sponsored by the Bloomsburg University Young Democrats held last night
at 7 p.m. in Multi-B'in Kehr Union.
Faith Warner, organizer of the event
and a member of the Young Democrats, attributed the lack of attendance
to apathy among student voters.
"There's a lot of apathy here on
campus towards politics," Warner
said."We want people to be informed.
We want people to know the issues
and we're convinced that if people are
truly educated diey will vote democratic."
The purpose of the meeting was to
discuss the poltical issues involved
and to have a debate between republican campaigners and democraticcampaigners.
Warner said she invited Jim Nelligan, area organizer of the Bush campaign, and members of the Helfrick
campaign for state senator to attend.
Republican campaigners did not
show up, however Mike Grothe,a
member of the Bloomsburg University Young Republicans, did partici-

pate in open discussions between the
people present.
Dr. Bruce Rockwood, J.D., co-manager for the Columbia-Montour
Dukakis/Bentsen campaign and
Bloomsburg University professor of
Business Law and Finance, ran the
forum. He discussed the Democratic
philosophy on such issues as supplyside economics, medical care, and
education .
The forum included footage of the
the last five minutes of the Dukakis
acceptance speech at the National
Democratic Convention, his Labor
Day speech, and a speech to the Council on Foreign Affairs in Chicago.
Both Warner and Rockwood expressed hope that more forums and
debates would be held with stronger
student attendance.
"Until we have universal registration, and until people learn to read
about the issues we will continue to
see this apathy," said Rockwood.
There is a meeting Thursday, Sept.
22 at 7 p.m. in the John Showers office
on East St. of the Young Democrats.
Interested students are encouraged to
attend.

death.
"A word of friendship or a gentle
hug can mean so much to those who

Inter Fraternity Council

Greeks show unity at Presidents' Talk

by Dawn M. D'Aries
News Editor
Five fraternity presidents spoke to
65 rushees at the Inter-Fraternity AllPresidents' Talk Tuesday evening in
the Kehr Union.
Inter-Fraternity Council President Cortland Bigelow introduced
Lambda Chi Alpha President Mike
Bryan, the first to address the rushees.
Bryan spoke of the positive points of
belonging to a fraternity, such as
learning leadership skills and forming
strong bonds of brotherhood.
Gamma Epsilon Omicron President Dave Kowalski said "there is
nothing wrong with being non-

greek, but added that the Greek system acts as a vehicle to get more involved with the university.
Paul Hay ward, Sigma Iota Omega
President, told the rushees that they
were the future of the Greeks and said
being in a" fraternity included "community service, brotherhood , good
times, and alumni." Hayward added
that the greek society must "boycott
the national paranoia" surrounding
them and noted that the fraternities at
Bloomsburg have "banded together
more now than at any other time."
President of Phi Sigma Psi, Timothy Holter, said that belonging to a
fraternity "made me more of a leader

and built up my confidence." He also
encouraged rushees to "give it all
you 've got."
Tau Kappa Epsilon President
Mark Beaudoin reasserted the positive
points of being in a fraternity and
spoke of the bond of brotherhood as
the basis of wearing greek letters.
The vice president of Theta Chi,
which is currently seeking status as a
chartered Greek fraternity in the EFC,
spoke briefly to the rushees about
perseverence.
Presidents from Beta Sigma
Delta, Delta Pi, and Zeta Psi did not
speak to prospective pledges, however
members from the respective fraterni-

ties were in attendance.
Inter-Fraternity Council President
Cordand Bigelow explained that Beta
Sigma Delta is currendy on probation
and awaiting re-evaluation. He also
pointed out that Delta Pi is not on
official probationary status but is
awaiting university sanctions.
Taras Somyk, president of Delta Pi
, explained that they "are not permitted to exist as a fratern ity" and are expecting a decision this Thursday or
Friday from Dean Norton concerning
their status.
Representatives from Zeta Psi
could not be reached for comment
Wednesday night.

FBI director disciplines six agents
By Ronald J. Ostrow
L.A. Times-Washington Post Service
WASHINGTON _ FBI Director
William S. Sessions, in a rare public
crack down, disciplined six FBI officials Wednesday for their handling of
a controversial investigation of a
group opposed to administration policies in El Salvador.
Critics have charged that the FBI
violated citizens' rights of free expression and association in the inquiry. But while calling the investigation "flawed" and one of which the
FBI was not proud,.Sessions told the
Senate Intelligence Committee that
there was no evidence of any White
House involvement in it nor that it was
politically motivated.

The discipline ranging from censure to two weeks of suspension with
out pay _ was directed at lower and
mid-level bureau officials in Dallas,
where the investigation was concentrated , and at FBI headquarters in
Washington. Sessions also announced several changes in FBI practices to prevent a recurrence of the
errors he acknowledged in the investigation.
He said that former FBI Director
William H. Webster, who headed the
b ureau during the investigation of the
Committee in Solidarity with the
People of El Salvador, and Executive
Assistant Director Oliver B. Revell,
who headed the FBI's criminal inves-

tigative division, had no reasonable
way to know" of the errors in the
CISPES investigation.
Nevertheless, Sen. Dennis DeConcini, D-Ariz., expressed "my disappoi ntment in the former director for
not knowing" of the excesses in the
CISPES case. DeConcini has been a
strong supporter of Webster, who left
the FBI in 1987 to head the CIA.
Contending that the CISPES investigation began as "a reasonable exam
ination of a possible terrorist threat,"
Sessions said: "... its execution was
flawed reflects mismanagement. It
does not reflect a policy of purposeful
interference with legitimate domestic
political activity.

No substantial link between
CISPES and international terrorism
acti vities was ever established," he
said.
Sessions said that the officials used
information provided by an unre liable
informan t to unwisely expand its investigation of the group, then failed to
properly review and direct the inquiry
later to keep it within proper bounds.
He blamed, in part, shortcomings in
the attorney general's guidelines for
such investigations.
Secessions contended that the FBI
had addressed "only the smoke"about
the inquiry , not its possible full dimensions. He said mat the FBI should have
fired the officials involved.

Harvard professor and activist Poussaint addresses racism

Speaker Alvin Poussaint addresses racism during his workshop at the
University Fourm on Tuesday.
Photo by JimBettendorf

The Provost's Lecture Series for
the fall semester was tipped off by Dr.
Alvin Poussaint, a highly respected
author, psychiatrist, and social critic.
Poussaint is an Associate Professor of
Psychiatry at Harvard Medical
School and a script advisor for "The
Bill Cosby Show."
AtTuesday's4 p.m. workshop held
in the McCormick Center's Forum
his theme focused on racism and wh y
it still flourishes in today's society.
He began the workshop by noting the
rise in racial tensions on college campuses across the nation.
Emphasizing the root of ethnic
conflicts as being a lack of interaction
and communication among whites
and minorities he explained one-third
of the U.S. population will be composed of minorities heading into the
next century. With this in mind,Poussaint encouraged a need for a better
understanding of ourselves and racial
groups.
He continued to discuss stereotypes people possess and how they
are expressed publicly, especially
through the media. He used comments given by Al Campanis and
Jimmy the Greek, who generalized
Black athletes as being superior ge-

netically, but were not intelligent
enough to be leaders. Poussaint
stated that comments of this nature
have been stereotypical of black athletes for many years.
He said, "that attitude is very
prevalent , particularly among oldtime people in sports."
He pointed out while comparing
racial and ethnic backgrounds, the
issue of genetics will certainly arise.
The discussion of genetics, he contended, usually raises more confusion and stereotypes than it disposes
of.
Poussaint focused on American
Indians, an ethnic group our society
that has suffered through the years
with an image that has portrayed
them as nothing more than warmongers and savages.
Hecommented, "most kids growing up in the United States learn to
look down on Native Americans by
age six," through stereotypes and
biases entrenched in every part of our
society. The insults to their ethnic
heritage range from our nations celebration of Columbus Day-"who was
here see Columbus land anyway?"as the discoverer of America and the
reference to American Indian s

as, merciless Indian savages, in the
Declaration of Independence.
Poussaint covered many topics thru
the remainder of the workshop. He discussed the unfair comparison of IQ
and SAT scores. He declared that
many tests are culturally biased as test
questions are created for those have an
affluent backgrounds, giving them
more access to varied types of information.
Poussaint said, "scores on SAT
exams are strongly class related", and
can be the single most important factor
in determining how well you perform
on the test."
Next, he discussed the segregation
of the U.S. Army during World Wars I
and II, the internment of Japanese
Americans, and the acceptance of interracial marriages in our society. He
also gave his experiences of dealing
with segregation while working in a
Jackson, Mississippi hospital, from
1965-67. He considers the civil rights
legislation passed during 1964-65 as
the end of America's version of apartheid.
At the end of Dr. Poussaint's workshop he expressed a need to diversify
core curriculumsin schools as a way of
exposing upcoming generations to

different cultural history and literature. He encouraged a break away
from the sole teaching of Western
European literature and history now
focused on in most schools. This may
seem to be one answer to the tough
problems produced by racial and ethnic ignorance. However, it will definitely take more to put a hold on racial
:

Concert Committed hands
tied when it comes to dates
To the Editor
This letter is in response to the letter
in Monday 's issue of The Voice regarding how most of our concerts by
the Bloomsburg Student Conceit
Committee seem to fall on a
wceknight.
Most students dont 's seem to realize how a date is booked with an artist
and believe that die concert committee can receive any dale we wish. This
however is not the case.
When a performer goes out on lour ,
the manager schedules certain ni ghts
open to play in different areas of the
country and make these dates available to the music agents, which
Bloomsburg University and others
work through.
Bloomsburg is then told what dates

are available on die tour by these
agents , which usually fall on
weeknights.
When the Concert Committee decides, its first responsibility is to the
students of Bloomsburg University.
We do try to take into consideration
the problems of holding a concert on
a school night , including ni ght
classes.
However, since we have little
choice on when a performer will be
touring in our area , it 's not always
possible to get a concert held on a
weekend.
With Pat Benatar, the Concert
Committee was only offered one date,
Oct. 5, 1988, which happens to fall on
a Wednesday night. This was her only
available tour date. The committee

then had a choice of grabbing the date
or not having her here.
The committee works hard on deciding for the studen t body. We felt
dial Pat Benatar would be a good
choice for Bloomsburg University
taking everyUiing into account.
We are sorry that we can 't please
everybody, especially students who
have ni ght classes, but we do try our
best.
I hope the students at BU now have
a better understanding the process of
how performers arrive here and realize that wc seldom have ii choice of
specific dates.

Editor 's note: This letter was written
to the editor in response to the Guns n
Roses music review written by Scott
Anderson.
Dear Mr. Anderson
What are you? Nuts? Or belter yet,
do you come from some "Deliverance", banjo-pickin ' hicktown where
its citizens (who all just happen to be
related) are exposed to nothing but
metal-head rock? .
What do you guys do? Sit around
and sing the words? What words? All
wc hear are some obnoxious mating
sounds one would expect to hear in the
mountains surrounding Angtrcc.
What is so orig inal about the music
they perform , or the performance it-

self? It I had on pants that tight , I'd
jump around twice as much as he
docs!
I shudder at the thought of having
them compared to the original classic
sounds of British bands who have
formed the backbone of our rock heritage.
Let's wake up, America! Or better
yet... let's all just fall asleep for tomorrow when wc wake, they will
have already been history like tiicir
long-haired "monsters of rock" buddies — Cindcralla , Poiscn , Kingdom
Come, and Rait (die one from the
cellar) .
So far , all they have going for diem
is the fact that die straggly mess they

Uirow around just might be their real
hair!
In closing, we have one last question to ask . Where do they get their
album titles?
Probably from the same guy on the
corner who sells them those "kick
ass" tee-shirts that read "On the 8th
day, God created Harlcy Davidson."
Yeah , dial's something we'd wear if
wc got ihe chance to be on die MTV
Vidio Music Awards! Appetite for

You call that stuff music?

We all have our pr oblems
by Douglas Rapson
Staff Writer
As a disk jockey on the campus
radio station , I was excited to see the
turntables spinning again.
Many people seem to think that
Mass Communications majors do not
have problems or difficulties. After
all, how tough can it be to play a
record ? Most college freshman do it,
with great speed and volume.
Some of us have trouble getting
classes. I know a lot of other students
have trouble getting classes, too. But,
do biology majors have to reschedule
classes diat they had that were
dropped , only to have to add them
again when the department decided to
open them again at the last minute (a
week after classes officially started)?

Do education majors worry about the
College of Arts and Sciences dropping their major ?
But classes are not the only problem
that the Mass Communications major
is faced with.
Those of us who write for The Voice
often wonder how our stories will
come out. I'm sure die editors do, too.
We are plagued by nightmares of
editors laughing manically as they
take huge magnets to the disk that
contains a week's worth of stories.
Many writers wonder where the
story came from that appears below
their name. "Its the right topic. But I
didn 't write it."
Those who work on the local Bloom
News TV show hope that everything
will come out the right way. The

anchors hope that the camera people
won'tdo anything stupid. The camera
crew is concerned that the anchors
follow the stage manager's cues. And
the director hopes that the party
doesn't start without him.
As for the radio folks, we have no
problems. I've overheard some folks
talking about WTKE. But I have absolutely no idea what they 're talking
about.
So the next time you see one of those
poor Mass Comm majors running off
to this show, or that deadline, remember that they're probably under a lot of
stress.
And if they seem to be preoccupied
about something, its probably that
story that they just handed to their
editor.

To the Editor
This is in response to Mr. Orndorf' s
facdess letter published in Monday 's
Voice.
Unfortunatel y, you choose not to
see the reality of the stiuation as most
liberal-minded people do. The point
of your article, Mr. Orndorf , is, in
fact, reversed. Staying within the
vicwoftheenvironmental issues,you
have tried to stage the view of the "environmentalists candidate."
Hopefully, with good insight, the
true environmentalists will see
through this farce.

Has Mr. Dukakis made numerous
attempts to better the environment in
Massachusetts? The facts answer this
question a little better than your article.
One sad fact you seemed to have
"accidentally" omitted is that Boston
Harbor is the dirtiest body of water in
the United States.
Despite tremendous local effort to
improve this situation , Governor
Dukakis chooses to turn his back to
this disaster. It is one of the only
places left in the United States where
primary sewage is allowed to be
dumped directly into a body of water
so close to land.
Admittedly, a small effort is made
in treating this sewage in that they
separate solid from from liquid and
then discard it. This sounds like a
futile effort in treatment not to men-

tion a terrible waste of money.
On a more positive side, Bush has
already undertaken positive steps to
better the environment. For example,
he has visited the New Jersey Coast to
initiate his plan for a moritorium of
ocean dumping.
Instead, this is Bush's initiative and
not borrowed from Dukakis's platform. In fact, it is spurned from
Dukakis's policy of dumping in Boston Harbor.
The reason George Bush has become an environmentalist is only to
fi ght anti-environmental ideals. On
these merits, environmentally minded
people can have confidence in the
protection being offered by this overall more qualified candidate, George
Bush.

Duke an environmentalist?

WCOf WX THE "OZONE IS AS STRONG AS EVFE/

A fictional look at love and lust

A quota is a quota is a quota , and a
deadline by any other name...
If the Fates (and the Registrar) permit , I shall graduate in December so I
will have to submit my obligatory and
traditional Valentine's Day column
here and now. If you 're not comfortable with this you can hold off reading
it until February.
By this time we've all had a chance
to mess up at least two or three summer romances. The late summer
months are therefore marked by the
appearance of a strange phenomenon
which I call the "September Moper",
or "Scarlet-Cheeked Pining Sobwhiner".
This is a person who fell madly in
love with someone they considered to
be the perfect mate, and was consequently rejected by said lust person.
The September Moper spends the
greater part of the next semester
bemoaning the loss and being a general annoyance to those around him or
her.
There are certain items that always
seem to characterize these relationships. First and forem ost, it is apparent to all but the Moper him/herself
that the match was not a good one in
the first place.
The lost love, that is, the "dumper",
probably never cared much for the
Moper (the "dumpee"), was not par-

ticularly compatible with die Moper,
and in some cases wasn 't a very nice
person to begin with.
On the other hand , tiicre is almost
always a third person on the sidelines
who is quite infatuated with the
Moper, and who would be a much
better friend and lover, but who goes
completely unnoticed while the
dumpee wails and gnashes his or her
respective teeth. So much for loyalty
and pathos.
Let me illustrate this with an example that has no foundation in truth
whatsoever but happens to fit in
nicely with the rest of this article.
We'll call him Paul. His real name
is Jack Raupenschlcpper , but we'll
call him Paul to protect his identity.
He is not a secondary education major
here at BU and he does not live on
Fifth Street.
Paul met a young lady over the
summer holiday. We won 't reveal her
identity, other than to say she lives in
Room 715 in Kruschev Hall. This
woman, whom we will call simply
Helga Himmler of Pottsville, agreed
to eat lunch at the same table as Paul in
a crowded sidewalk ice-cream parlour.
The two conversed for over three
minutes. Paul was enamoured and
began working on marriage plans.
Helga had other ideas, however.

Not being die type to become entangled in long-term affairs , she terminated the relationship before the
second round of chocolate malts. Paul
was crushed.
"She's the greatest woman in the
world ," sobs Paul to his unfortunate
friends and relatives. "I can't understand why she won 't talk to me now. I
thought we had something really special."
I meticulously scribbled down his
comments in case I should have to
write some country-western music
some day.
"Look, pal," said I with the symphadiy of a tax collector, there are
plenty of other fish in the sea. Most of
them have nicer tails."
I am not, I repeat not, implying that
people should make judgem ents on
the value of a relationship based
solely on their partner's physical
equipment.
Far from it. I just can't stand to see
a man crawling on his hands and
knees for a woman who has no rear
end.
"She's not worth it," I continue.
"She's already demonstrated that she
has no taste or common sense by the
fact that she dumped you. What more
evidence do you need?"
"Maybe she's just playing hard-togct," Paul mummers as a tiny frag-

ment of hope stumbles around in his
brain.
"She told you she'd jump in front of
a train before she'd go out on a date
with you."
"Lots of girls say that,"replies Paul.
"They're playing hard-to-get."
"Why don 't you take out Harriet
Horizon, the third person in this fictional narrative who is actually quite
infatuated with you but who goes
completely unnoticed while you wail
and gnash your respective teeth?"
"Harriet?!" Paul looks aghast.
"She... she isn't as physically attractive as Helga. Harrietdoesn 't stir my
hormones."
Helga is incapable of maintaining
an intelligent conversation or performing simple mathematics. Harriet
thinks you're the greatest guy on the
continent. Trust me."
"Well... I'll consider it for a while
and then procrastinate as long as possible."
Of course, nothing useful came
from this encounter. Paul is still alone,
Helga is now dating the 109th Artillery Regiment, Harriet has gone off to
become a nun , and traffic accidents
continue to be a leading cause of death
among young people. It just goes to
show you should never try to interfere
with the personal relationships of fictitious people in satirical essays.

KGB secret police played role (ru OJJSCT &M©yM©I^IM?S
in plot to overthrow soviet
by Michael Dobbs
LA. Times-Washington Post Service
MOSCOW _ The KGB secret police played a key role in the overthrow
of former Soviet leaderNikita
Khrushchev in 1964 and his replacement by Leonid Brezhnev , according
to a new account of one of the murkiest
episodes in Kremlin politics, published here Wednesday.
An article in the Soviet newspaper
Literary Gazette depicted the main
instigators of the anti-Khrushchev
plot as former KGB chief Alexander
Shclepin and his protege, Vladimir
Semichastny. It said Khrushchev finally became aware of the conspiracy
when his KGB guard was switched
without his knowledge.
The revelations came in a long article on the Brezhnev era by Fyodor
Burlatsky, a former Khrushchev
speechwriter who also has acted as an
informal adviser to the present Soviet
leader, Mikhail Gorbachev. The article painted a scathing portrait of
Brezhnev as a mediocre leader who
failed to rise to the political and economic challenges facing the Soviet
Union.
The past few weeks have seen
mounting public criticism of
Brezhnev, culminating in a major
corruption trial with his son-in-law
Yuri Churbanov as star defendant.
The spate of anti-Brezhnev articles
in the press provoked an unusual protest Wednesday from the former Soviet leader's grandson.
Writing in the weekly Moscow
News, Andrei Brezhnev complained
that a rock group had recentiy danced
and gyrated over a huge portrait of his
grandfather that had been laid out on
the stage. He said having "Brezhnev"
as a last name had become a considerable handicap.

Untu recendy, public discussion of
Kremlin power struggles or of th e
family lives of Soviet leaders was inconceivable here.
The personal lives of present-day
leaders remain off limits for the Soviet
press, but anything to dowith their
predecessors seems to have become
fair game.
Burlatsky, whose position gives
him access to some internal Kremlin
discussions, said Brezhnev was chosen as Communist Party first secretary
succeeding Khrushchev because his
associates imagined that he would be
a transitional leader.
He said that if anyone had predicted
back in 1964 that Brezhnev would
remain in power for 18 years, "he
would have been laughed at in the
face."
Brezhnev, who served as the Communist Party 's second secretary at the
time of the anti-Khrushchev coup,
was brought into the plot only at a
relatively late stage, according to
Burlatsky.
The former speechwriter also discounted speculation in the West that
the driving force behind the conspiracy was the party 's former ideologist,
Mikhail Suslov.
The article said that Shclepin and
other plotters met at a scries of "unexpected places" including a sports stadium where they "arranged things"
while ostensibly watching soccer
matches. It said that a special role was
played by Semichastny, Shelepin's
handpicked successor as head of the
KGB, who had the task of changing
Khrushchev's personal guard .
Both Shelepin and Semichastny
received important promotions following Khrushchev 's overthrow, but
were ousted by Brezhnev. Shelepin ,
nicknamed "Iron Shurik" by the

Two research groups working independently reported Wednesday they
have for the first time created a functioning human immune system in
mice by implanting human tissues in a
strain of mice which have no immune
system.
This remarkable feat, the researchers said, should make it possible to
study the effects of the AIDS virus on
the human immune system without
endangering people and thereby develop new clues about how to treat and
possibly prevent this modem plague.
A new animal model may also make
it much easier to test new drugs and
vaccines against AIDS because researchers might no longer have to use
chimpanzees, which are both expensive and in danger of extinction, but
which are also the only other animal
known to be infected by an AIDS-like
virus.
But the development may have
ramifications stretching well beyond
AIDS. One of the research groups

created their immune system by implanting human fetal immune tissues
in the mice, suggesting the same techniques could be used to implant "virtually any other human tissue imaginable" and making it possible to create

Irving L. Weissman of the Stanford
University School of Medicine, who
headed one of the groups.
"It's a new way of doing human
biology," said Nobel laureate David
Baltimore of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
The revelations, prompted by the
publication 'of a San Diego group's
research report in the British journal
Nature Thursday, came while a special committee of the National Institutes of Health was meeting in Washington to consider the ethics of using
human fetal tissues in research. That
committee is scheduled to draft its recommendations Friday.

mediate pretext for Khrushchev 's
removal came after his journalist sonin-law, Aleksei Adzhubei , provoked a
complaint from the East German leadership by some ill-considered remarks
about German reunification.
But the real reason for his removal ,
Burlatsky said, was dissatisfaction
with Khrushchev 's erratic forei gn and
domestic policies, including the nuclear saber-rattling with the 'United
States over Cuba.
According to the article ,
Khrushchev realized that something
was amis s only when flying back to
Moscow for a crucial Politburo meeting on Oct. 13, 1964. After he noticed
that the guard had been changed, he
unsuccessfully tried to persuade the

said he spent a lot of time closeted in
his study with his personal bodyguard,
an old wartime comrade called A.
Ryabenko, who was one of the very
few people in whom he had unlimited
trust.
Andrei Brezhnev said the former
leader was dismayed by the behavior o
f his daughter Galina, who married
Yuri Churbanov in 1971 and acquired
a reputation for corruption and high

Acknowledging that "laws did not

Economists recommend changes
By Arch Parsons
LA. Times-Washington Post Service
WASHINGTON _ A bipartisan
task force of black economists, aiming
the results of a two-year study of black
Americans' economic needs directly
at the two presidential candidates ,
Wednesday recommended major
changes in national policies ranging
from job training to health care.
The recommendations included
proposals that the nation 's rate of econ
omic growth be speeded; that the federal government "return to vigorous
enforcement of affirmative-action
policies; that employment and training programs for the disadvantaged be
increased; and called for a national
system of health insurance and health

care as a means of improving worker
productivity.
The study, entitled "Black Economic Progress: An Agenda for the
1990 s," was produced by the Economic Policy Task Force, an arm of
the Joint Center for Political Studies,
the nation 's leading think tank on
black issues.
Eddie N. Williams, president of the
center, called the study timely because
it "challenges both presidential candidates" on the issue of the natio'nal
economy 's future direction.
Margaret C. Simms, deputy director
of research at the center and editor of
the task force 's report, said that the
study was directed at "three primary
constituencies": the presidential candidates and their staffs; "policy mak-

ers in general" and "in particular,
black elected officials"; and black
voters, "in order to look at what the
candidates are offering them and to
use that as a means of informing themselves when they go to the polls."
Dr. Simms said that the seven
economists on the task force had
"focused on ways to increase employment opportunities for blacks."
"Full-time, year-round employment
for more black workers," she said ,
would help to "close the racial income
gap," noting that the 1987 median
income of white families was
S32,270, up 1 percent over 1986,
while the median income for black
families in 1987 was unchanged from
the previous year.

acts as temporary department head

Oscar- winning composer and pianist Marvin Hamlish will lead off
the 1988-89 Celebrity Artist Series at Bloomsburg University when he
performs "An Evening with Marvin Hamlish" at 8 p.m. Sat., Oct. 5, in
Mitrani Hall of Haas Center for the Arts.
Hamlish was born into a music-talented family in New York City,
and at ages 7 was one of the youngest students ever admitted to the
Julliard School o ( Music. Thirteen years later , he was firs t introduced
to television audiencces around the world during the Academy Awards
broadcast when he was called to the podium three different times to
accept oscars.
Two of fn's oscars were for his work on The Way We Were, directed
by Sydney Pollack and starrin g Robert Redford and Barbra Streisand.
In addition to providin g the film 's score, Hamlish collaborated with
the husband -and-wil'e lyric-writing team of Maril yn and Alan
Bergman to create the movie 's title song sung by Streisand.
Hamlish received his thir d Oscar that evening lor The Sting, Georgse
Roy Hill' s con-man caper starring Robert Redford and Paul Newman.
The widespread success of The Sting soundtrack provided the country
with a re-introduction to the magic of ragtime , as well as renewed
appreciation for the works of American composer Scott Joplin.
Hamlish's first lBroadway musical contribution was for A Chorus
Line in 1975 for which he received the Tony Award , the New York
Drama Critic 's Award , the Theater World Award , and the Pulitzer
Prize. Four years later, he contributed to the musical They 're Playing
Our Song which nourished on Broadway for over 1,000 performances.
In the mid '70s, he developed his own repertoire and was soon performing in concert halls all across America. In addition to his own
classic hits , Hamlish created a "rent-a-composer "act for his show that
lets the audience suggest new titles and them Hamlish writes the songs
on the spot. This new phase was acclaimed by critics everywhere he
performed.
His latest film credits include The Spy Who Loved M e , Same Time
Next Year,Ordinary People, Soph ie's Choice, Ice Castles, Starting Over,
and four Neil Simon films.
His television credits have included the signature theme for ABC's
Good Morning Ameri ca, the CBS Morn ing Show and several other
television adaptations featuring prominent actors.

Mcrcba says, "Any field of study,

moving it will put a tear in any
romantic's eyes.
There are relationships and
characters so complex that any

Not to mention the fact that it is based

movie has merit of its own.
It's a love story. It 's a war story.
It's a story of loyalty and friendshi p as

It is set in Atlanta , Georg ia. It is the
time of women wearing corsets and
long, full gowns and men in top hats

And the only mode of transportation is by foot or on horseback or

It is also during the Civil War. But
the characters are so realistically portrayed that, except for their Southern
accents, it could be any American city
during the bloodiest war our country 's
history.
The film tells the story of the
unforgettable Scarlett O'Hara, town
vixen, who seems able to achieve anything her heart desires, and Ashley
Wilkes, her complete opposite, is the
man she wants at any cost, but can 't
have; and Rhett Butler, the black
sheep of his family — gambler and
ladies' man.
Rhett's desire to own Scarlett
equals hers to own Ashley. The three
are trapped in a love triangle. The
question
is , who emerges
victoriously, (if anyone)?
This is not just another Civil War
movie. It 's the story of the war 's
impact on the South , and the O'Hara
family, in particular. The war is presented from a personal viewpoint ,
also making some important social

and political statements about life
during wartime.
Admittedly, it's a long movie.
Very long. But in this case, long does
not neccessarily equal boring. The
length does not indicate redundancy,
but depth . The characters and situations have time to be developed fully
and presented realistically.

Gambling: a recreatio n or an addiction ?

Most people who play the lottery
would not classif y themselves as
gamblers. Nor would die group diat
gathers once a week for a friendly
game of poker or bingo. It 's fun , and
the chance to win a few dollars is
exciting.
However, for three percent of the
United States population— over
400,000 people in New Jersey and
just slightl y fewer in Pennsylvania—
games of chance, such as cards or
lottery , arc onl y the beginning of a
much more serious problem . Similar
to alcohol and drug abuse , patholog ical gambling usuall y starts as the
oncc-in-a-while game for fun and
excitement. For some, it becomes an
obsession.
"Most addicitivc agents are fun in
small quantities but dangerous in

large amounts," explains Paul Fink,
M.D., medical director at Philadelphia Psychiatric Center (PPC) and
President of the-American Psychiatric Association (APA). "Gambling,
when it becomes an obsession, is a
terribl y self-destructive enterprise,
and people's lives arc being destroyed by it. "
Programs have long been available
for substance abusers, but it is only
since 1981 that pathological gambling has been accepted as a treatable
mental disorder by the APA.
"Pathological gambling had not
been recognized as a mental disorder
because people were not attending to
the fact , they were not treating it as an
addiction ," Fink continued. "It
wasn't until 1981 that increased pressure from leaders throughout Ameri-

can psychiatry led to the inclusion of
pathological gambling in the Diagnostic Statistical Manual (DSM- III)
as a disease th at could be treated the
same way as other addictions were
being treated."
Even with this recognition , gambling is still a socially acceptable activity, as exemplified by the lotteries
or casinos. This helps pathological
gamblers hide their illness. Furthermore, there arc no physical characteristics that uncover the compulsive
gambler. Instead , what develops is a
pattern of habitual lying. Once this
starts, the gambler starts hurting
people around him as well as himself.
"For every one pathological gambler, 10 to 15 people are affected either mentallyor financiallyby his/her
disease," said Jim Pappas , coordina-

tor of the compulsive gambling program at PPC and a recovering gambling adddict. "Friends and family actually become cnablcrs by lending the
gambler funds to continue without
facing the extent of the problem."
Perhaps it's because of gambling 's
degree of social acceptability that
loved ones do not realize the extent of
the problem. With no visual signs of
addiction , and little awareness of its
severity, pathological gambling is
still not a commonly known disorder.
PPC, a subsidary of Albert Einstein
Healdicare Foundation , offers education and rehabilitation for the compulsive gambler. A 21- to 2S*dayprogram , almost identical to other addiction treatment program s, helps the
gambler develop new thinking and
behavior patterns.

Potential patients are diagnosed
based on the DSM-III criteria. Those
who exhibit four of the nine listed
symptoms of compulsive gambling
behavior are recommended for admittance to the program.
"People often call us when they are
on the brink of financial ruin from
gambling and don 't know which way
to turn ," said Pappas. "We offer individual and group counseling and support, as well as financial and legal
guidance. Our hope is to provide the
individual wiCi new patterns of living
for a lifetime of abstinence from any
type of gambling."
Before pathlological gambling can
be attacked on a broad scale, however,
the severity of the disease must be
understood.

Bricklin started out as the
Schoolboys playing in different clubs
in the Philly area.
They got their big break when they
came together with producer/engineer Neil Dorfsman who has also
worked with Bruce Springsteen , Dire
Straits, Billy Idol , and Def Lcppard -just to name a few.
By 1981, the Schoolboys were one
of the biggest attractions in Philadel-

phia. They were the opening act for
big-name bands likcJoanJetc and The
Romantics .
By late 1981, early 1982, the
Schoolboys were receiving airplay on
many Philadelphia radio stations, including WMMR , and were appearing
on television.
By 1983, the group had just dissipated and dropped out of the limeli ght.
In 1985, the group rejoined with a
few added members and began playing in die local Philly night clubs
under the name of Bricklin.
Shortly after they returned to the
club scene they were signed by A & M
Records.

Bricklin is a talented and versatile
group. Each band member can sing
and play a variety of instruments.
Bricklin has become a regular at the
Philadelphia cabarets and can still
really bring in a crowd.
Bricklin has been predicted as the
next band out of Philadelphia to make
it to the charts and hit it big.
Come on out to the concert on September 17 and witness the coming of
age of the newest and hottest band in

Car detailing
is a matter of
personal choice

by Daniel Nase
f o r The Voice
The patient is rushed into the operating room. Grime and scratches
cover every curve of his body. The
staff goes over their plans for treatment.
The concerns are to scrub away the
dirt from the patient's body. The
team 's leader asks for his next surgical
instrument. With great precision, he
uses a toothbrush over every inch of
the patient's rear and front ends. The
final procedure is the complex waxing and buffing of the entire body.
The whole staff works together in
these hours of painstaking, but accurate work. The patien t is saved again ,
and ready to roll back on the road for
another beating. They know it's not
the last time they are going to see that
car; it will be back in a couple of
months for another complete workover.
Since their emergence,car detailing
has become a big money-making
business. According to a recent issue
of Road and Track , since the early
1980's, car detailing shops have almost tripled in existence across America.
It is no secret that everyone would
like to have their car looking brand
new every year , but is it really worth
the expense and time of car detailing?
The consumer has two options: (1)
take the time to take of his car by
himself, or (2) take the car to a detailing shop and let them take care of it.
It would be ideal if you could drive
your car to one of these shops , but the
expense of one of these work-overs is
great. One visit to these shops might
cost a person about $100 to $200.
For the people that can afford this
option , the job that is done is always
first-rate. According to Peter Mc-

Caulla, a car detailer, his shop is never
empty and has a waiting list close to
one month long, so the high prices
don't seem to turn everyone away.
Besides the expense of car detailing, these waiting lists can become a
problem with a many people. A -cording to Ted Sobal, sales representative
for a local Ford dealership, detailing
shops could be very essential to their
sales, but most of the time the waiting
lists ar e just too long to keep up with
their needs. Although McCaulla says
that the waiting lists can become a
problem, he feels that all the work
done on the car should outweigh this
small problem . He says that detailing
work can change a car's overall look.
It's specialized techniques and products will bring back that missing
sparkle that was lost after the first
30,000 miles on the road.
The detailers believe that detailing
is worth it, but do the customers think
differently?
Customers, when questioned, generally agreed with the detailers opinion, although a few had some problems with the work done.
/
One customer complained that
dents were found toward the rear of
the car after the detailing job. Another
says that he noticed that they applied
wax to his car unevenly, making one
side of his car dull, while the other side
had it's full shine.
McCaulla says that mistakes like
these happen when the shop is very
busy. With the hundreds of cars going
into the shop monthly, it is difficult to
spend as much time on a car as he
would want to. But he says that his
shop always strives for the best possible job.
Whether you believe in spending
money for detailing or not, the operating room is here to stay.

In a non-conference bout, the
Bloomsburg Men's soccer team gave
an impressive showing to tie Lock
Haven University, 0-0.
Lock Haven was ranked in the top
ten in the country among Division II
soccer teams in a preseason pole. "To
travel to Lock Haven and come out
with a tie is definitely something to be
proud of," stated Coach Steve Goodwin . "We played a good game."
Sophomore Keith Cincotta picked
up his second consecutive shutout
this season as he made many tough
saves. The game was not totally defensive on either side, as both teams
had many chances to score.
"I'd say the opponents had a slight
edge overplay, especially in the overtimes," said Coach Goodwin. Control of play switched throughout the
game. "One team dominated for ten
minutes and seemed to get tired, than

the other team took control for a short
time."
As the game ran scoreless into the
first of two overtimes, BU had what
was probably its best chance at scoring, but fell short. Lock Haven had its
best chance to score in the second
overtime, when goalie Keith Cincotta
punched down a cross. An opponent
collected the ball and took a shot , but
Junior Alfred McKenzie was there to
clear the ball out.
A tie against Lock Haven on the record might even help in the running for
a wildcard position in the playoffs.
Hopefully, the team can keep their
positive momentum for their next
game, a home bout with Millersville
University.
"If we show the same level of intensity against Millersville as we did with
Lock Haven, we have a very good
chance of winning,"said Coach Good-

You see it every spring. Children
ages eight or nine getting very excited
about playing outside. Their parents
sign them up for the team at the town
hall. The little boys and girl s go to
practices daily and prepare to play.
Gameday comes and parents help
their children get dressed up in dieir
uniforms. Everyone is excited. A
Litde League baseball game, you ask?
Or maybe softball?
No, the sport we're talking about
here is soccer, and it is sweeping the
nation. This is the most popular sport
among children , so popular that more

children play soccer than baseball or
softball combined.
This wave of popularity has also hit
die high school and college age and
very much so at Bloomsburg University. So much that Bloomsburg now
has a new club, The Women 's Soccer
Club.
The club has about 28 women on it
with the majority of them freshmen
and sophomores and is led by Dr.
Charles Laudermilch of the Socialogy
and Social Welfare department.
"I had been interested in soccer because I had been coaching AYSO
(American Youth Soccer Association)," began Laudermilch , "the last
seven years mostly with women and
my daughter p lays varsity for Dickenson.
"I felt that there were alot of women
interested in the game and what happened with me is that last year I had
about six or seven women on this team
played on a team that I was on at one
time. I just felt the there had to be
interest in soccer up here," explained
Laudermilch,
Laudermilch and some of those
girls began to announce meetings that
were held in the spring for anyone
interested in women's soccer and had
as many as 45 women show up at the
meetings.
The women that showed up at the
meetings decided to form a women's
soccer club. The women decided to
pay for their own uniforms and equipment since the club had no money in
its treasury.

Laudermilch then got a list of
women who were coming to
Bloomsburg this semester and what
their interests were. He sent letters to
all women who were interested in
soccer explaining that soccer would be
available to women at a club level.
The next step was to set up a schedule and Laudermilch was pleased to
get a 17 game schedule which includes
such opponents as Penn State 's
Women Soccer Club which
Bloomsburg plays today as well as
Kutzlown Varsity and ironically Dickenson Varsity.
"It's a nice mix ,"commented Laudermilch on the schedule, "there are
some teams we will be able to compete
against while we also play clubs like
Pcnn Slate. It's really a great oppertunity for these women to play against
them because of the experience of
their club, a club that is planning to go
varsity next year."
"The enthusiasm we have is jus t incredible," explained Laudermilch,
"the commitment for the game is
there."
Laudermilch is optimisdc for the

sity sport because of the push to have
just as many womens sports as the
mens."
"I also understand the financials of
the sports program and that there is
only so much allotted to the teams. It's
not that people don 't want a women's
soccer team, it 's just finding the
money to do it."
The varsity coaches and administration have been supportive towards the
club according to Laudermilch and he
said that it also helps to have an assistant coach that really is into the game.
"The commitment is incredible,"
comments Laudermilch, "these athletes are just as committed as the varsity teams. I don 't have to babysit
anybody, they're here to play. So they
are going to have alot of support from
Lou Hendricks (assistant coach) and
myself."
Laudermilch said that parents, who
have seen him coach in the Keystone
games, have been calling him asking if
there will be women's soccer here at
Bloomsburg. He accredits this to the
fact that the school has a good reputation of having a quality education at a
reasonable cost.
On the possibility of the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference of setting up a conference for varsity
women's soccer Laudermilch explained that because Kutztown has a
varsity women's soccer team that it is
an issue that can be pushed.
Laudermilch plans to call all the
schools that have clubs and begin to
talk up the idea of a conference in

Bloomsburg because of the interest in
women's soccer in the Philadelphia
and Harrisburg areas as well as New
Jersey. He expects that because of this
interest Bloomsburg should continue
to get good players.

"Although I see us becoming a var-

in women's soccer. "That will help us
become a varsity sport much quicker if
we can get a PSAC going," concluded

The normal field hockey game;
goes like this.
Alot of good passing, good blocking on defense, and the godltender
not making an exorbitant amount of
saves and the final score usually ending in scores of 1-0, 2-1, or 3-2.
Itis very unusual that a team scores
more than five times in a game and
even more unusual that one player
will score more than once in a game.
But last Saturday, the Bloomsburg
Field Hockey team score eight times
in a victory against Lycoming and
Daneen Fero scored three of the eight
goals.
For this reason Fero has been
named Studen t Athlete of the Week.
Fero, a Junior Elementary Education major from Lewisburg, Pa., firsjt
got interested in field hockey from
watching her older sister play in high
school. "The reason I started playing
hockey was because it was the only
fall team sport for girls at my high
school," began Fero. "My parent
were really supportive."
Even though she received many
offers from colleges to play at their
school, Fero decided to come to
Bloomsburg. "I really liked the
coach (Bloomsburg Field Hockey
Coach Jan Hutchinson), and the distance was better than the other
schools because Bloomsburg is
closer to home," stated Fero.
Fero started for the varsity team
here at Bloomsburg as a freshman,
which she considers one of the highlights of her field hockey career. "I
did not expect to make the varsity
team my freshman year. Other
people were telling me how well I
was doing, but as aplayer sometimes
you just don't feel that way," said
Fero.
The other highlight without a
doubt is last year'sNationalChampionship. It makes up for when we finished second in Nationals two years
ago when we were favored to win it,"
recallcs Fero,
"But we have the fealing that we
are starting out fresh this year,"starts
Fero. "Coach (Hutchinson) does a
good job of giving us our desire to
stay on top. If we would win the National Championshi p this year, we
would be the only team to ever win
the title in back to back years," answers Fero when asked how this
year's team is responding to last year
national championship.
"Our team does well because we
are all friends on and off the field. We
don't have the bickering that usually
brings a team down. We all play hard
and it just makes you want to play
harder," concluded Fero.
She doesn't expect to continue
field hockey after college except on a
club basis. When asked about the
possibility of going for the Olympics
in 1992, Fero says that she is realistic
about doing that
Ferofelt thatshe was notabigteam
leader but that she could always give
the team a boost when needed.Coach
Hutchinson agreed, " She does it all.
She anchors our offense and defense.
She is always in the play.Just a dynamic player."
