In atiempt reduce to the abuse and
illegal purchasing of alcohol , the
Bloomsburg University Administration has become determined to inform
the .studentbody and its organizations
of the consequences of illegal alcohol
activities with harsh new state laws.
Lori Barsness, advisor for the InterSorority Council , Robert Norton ,
Dean of Studen t Life and advisor to
the Intcr-Fratcrn ily Council , and Dr.
Jcrold Griffis , President for Student
Life, are addressing the alcohol problem.
Their primary goals are to inform
students thai Greeks arcn 't the only individuals and organizations in the
university system that arc suspected
for violating alcohol laws , and alcohol
doesn 't have to be present for groupsponsored activities to be successful.
According to the new underage
drinking Iawpasscd by thePennsylvania Slate Legislature those individuals
who are caught purchasing, consuming, or transporting alcoholic beverages will be fined $300 and get a 90
day suspension of their driver 's license. Selling alcohol to minors carries a minimum $1000 fine.
Currently a sub-division of the state
police called Liquor Control Enforcement is cracking down on violators of
the new law and universities across
the stale arc feeling the impact.
Griffis exp lained that the university
is in the developing stages of creating
a drug and alcohol task force comprised of four sub-commitlees to deal
with illegal alcohol use on campus and
in town.
The task force will emphasize the
importance of policies and procedures
that involve student responsibilities

under the law.
In reference to all campus organizations, Griffis said,"Thc fact is that , unfortunately, some of the groups are
nothing more than where you drink."
He went on to say dial student-run
organizations recognized by the university must have more depth and a
closer tie to the institution.
Greek organizations, the most noticeable on campus and therefore open
to die most criticism and publicity are
not die only ones who will have to
answer to the new laws.
"It isn 't all Greeks dial are creating
our problem "said Griffis.
The university is investigating the
possibility of co-ed fraternities and
honor societies involvement with illegal alcohol usage and hazing activities.
Griffis said that on the surface of
the the alcohol problem the issue may
be greeks, "but it's really alcohol
which is the issue we're talking
about."
With die attention given to university-recognized organizations in relation to alcohol , there has been an increase in the amount of noise and
disturbances caused by individuals
who return to campus after going to
house or apartment parties.
"There are certain housing units in
town that are having parties," Griffis
said. He added that a list of nine housing units with names of occupants has
been created and the university is now
considering what steps can be taken
against these units.
Individuals involved in these disturbances must realize the inconvenience
they are causing residents in lown and
that their behavior may have a significant effect on their future.
Dean Norton addressed this
situation ,"Bcfore , when a student ,

Republicans are also eager to talk
about income tax rales, interest rates,
inflation and unemployment, all of
which arc lower now than they were
four years ago.
"If the economy is the No. 1 issue,"
Bush campaign manager Lee Atwa ter
declares: "George Bush wins. The
Democrats will try to put a negative
spin on it. But if they want to help us
focus on the economy, that's fine. "
The Democrats insist thatReagan 's
economic prosperity is little more
than a facade that hides massive inequities for the average voter.
AFL-CIO President Lane Kirkland
a week ago sought to rally Southern
union leaders behind the Democratic
banner by turning two oft-quoted
George Bush remarks against him ,
jeering: "It's no longer 'voodoo economics,' it's 'doo-doo' economics."
Some local union officials say their
members are receptive to such criti-

cism. Even though unemployment is
low in his state, says Chris Scott ,
president of ihe North Carolina AFLCIO, "there is a real sense that we are
losing it, that people are not quite as
well off as they were before. And a lot
are worried about the future."
Scott points out that delegates attending a state convention of the
North Carolina AFL-CIO last month
cleaned out a printing of 100,000
Dukakis campaign brochures and
brought them back to distribute to
their local members.
"That doesn't happen unless they
are planning to put ihem out," he says.
"And you don 't put them out unless
you feel some sense of confidence
about your position."
And Democrats can cite plenty of
other evidence of at least creeping
discontent. Nearly two-thirds of the
registered voters interviewed in a Los

Presidential candidates engage in their initial policy stances

L.A. Times-Washington Post Service

WASHINGTON _ Launching his
fall drive for the White House on
Labor Day, Democratic nominee
Michael S. Dukakis served up the ace
of his economic policy argument:
"For the past seven years the rich
have gotten richer, the poor have
gotten poorer and those in the middle
... are getting squeezed," he told a
Detroit rally. " ... Can we afford four
more years of that?"
Last week Republican nominee
George Bush slammed back: "The
next time somebody tells you that
America is declining, tell 'em to put
away the 1980 calendar," the vice
president assured Chicago business
leaders. "This is 1988. America is a
rising nation again."
And so goes the economic debate,
like a tennis match, with the two presidential candidates lobbing and smashing facts and forecasts back and forth .

But this is no friendly match between a couple of well-bred and wellconditioned Ivy League alums.
Rather, it is a deadly serious competition for the support of the American
voter over an issue that , more than any
other, seems likely to decide the outcome of the election.
In one form or another, the economic argument has been raging for
the better part of the past decade,
highlighting fundamental differences
between the two parties.
In 1980, with Democrat Jimmy
Carter in power and the economy
riven by skyrocketing inflation and
interest rates, Republican Ronald
Reagan asked voters: "Are you better
off now than you were four years
ago?" The answer helped win him a
landslide victory and an eight-year
lease on the White House.
In 1988, Dukakis' chances of evicting the Republicans rest mainly on his

getting the right answer from voters to
another question: "How well off will
you and your family be four years
from now?"
Dukakis clearly has
a much tougher job than Reagan did in
1980. Then , voters were downright
angry and frustrated about current
circumstances. Now, diere is only an
underlying sense of anxiety about
what lies ahead.
"With conditions on the surface
looking good , it's a hard case for him
to make," says Missouri Rep.Richard
A. Gephardt, a former Dukakis rival
for the Democratic presidential nomination.
Republican Rep. Jack
Kemp of New York calls the current
68-month period of economic growth
"bad news for the Democratic Party.
The Democratic candidate is talking
about recession and deficits. The
Republican candidate is talking about
economic growth and cutting the capital gains tax."

whether they were independent or in a
greek house off campus, was arrested
for having a party it was usually disorderl y conduct , which is a summary
offense.
Now if a sludcnl is arrested for
buying alcohol for minors , it 's a misdemeanor. This would hurt your
chances of appl y ing for employment
in a specialized area ," for example
federal government jobs and leaching
jobs.
He went on to say,"Anytime a studentisover21 and has a couple of kegs
and decides to invite 100 people in to
pay his electricity he's taking a heck of
a chance."
However, there is evidence of current progress in die sponsoring of nonalcoholic events. Fraternities and sororilics are becoming involved in
more service activities.
"Right now I think the stage we're at
is not to think of ways of getting
around the law , but to accept responsibility, realize that they 're at risk and to
help them understand what could
happen to them ," Barsness said.
»She also said, as an advisor, she
helps plan non-alcoholic events and
shows organizations steps to take if
alcohol is involved.
Barsness continucd ,"You don 't
have to have alcohol at every event to
have fun."

At Large ' legend lives on

To the Editor,
I was greatly disappointed at the
decision to begin running the Student
at Large columns again without its
original author.
For those who remember Don
Chomiak, or even those who choose
to forget him , his insights on college
life were enli ghtening,... well , when
they weren 't confusing.
For over two years, this man
dazzled and deli ghted us with his
thoughts about the college (Parrishland) we attended and the town
(Bumblcsburg) we lived in. His ideas
and dreams were bound to rub off on
the staff that lie worked with .
Then , the inevitable happened, he

became management.
Chomiak took over as the Editor of
The Voice and was forced to abandon
his column or simply move it to the
editorial page, which he did. His arguments took on new shapes and new
language but were still the same arguments. His concern for this great university of ours was deep, although
some administrators did question it
from time to time.
Chomiak taught mc a lot about
what it means to stand up for something I believe in and I think there arc
more people I worked with in the
forsaken office off of the games room
who feel the same way. Jeff , Ted,
Tom , Jean , Kristcn , Maria , Dave,

Lisa and Lynn arc all gone but have
not forgotten.
So I beg you , Editor , not to allow
anyone to author a column under the
guise of Student at Large. Change the
name of Jen McGinlcy 's column and/
or reprint Chomiak' s columns is my
request.
As for Miss McGinlcy , I hold no
malice toward her, but , I also feel that
no one can ever replace Don
Chomiak.
And believe mc, the administration
sleeps easier knowing that.

To the Editor
I was glad to sec your reporter at
our meeting on Sept. 14. It was announced as an "Empty Chair Debate"
since this date was the first scheduled
debate of three presidential debates
original ly agreed to by the Republican and Democratic parlies.
Candidate Bush backed out of an
early third debate, so wc offered local
Republicans the chance to meet and
talk about the issues. Also, wc offered
\lhc public a chance to come in and
hear the Dukakis viewpoint.
The turn out was closer to 20 than
15, but this is a question in any case of
whether the glass is half-full or halfempty . The BU Young Democrats
and the Columbia-Montour DukakisBcnlscn Committee have already had
numerous meetings , and arc well
organized for the fall campai gn. By
meeting on a Wednesday when many
of our supporters were in class, we

hi ghlighted the "empty chair " point at
the expense of some attendance. Still ,
you might have noted that wc certainly had the first forum on campus
on the presidential issues, and that wc
offered the Young Republican representative the chance to debate us, in
public or in the pages of your newspaper, thoughout the campaign. Wc
hereby renew both of those offers.
Incidentally, we would like to
know what issues — education , the
budget , defense , etc.— are of interest
to students , so wc can focus campus
debates on those issues.
As a starter, since there have been
two letters on the environmenta l record of Governor Dukakis , let mc point
out that , a) the Boston Harbor cleanup was postponed because Federal
funds for sewage clean-up were cut
under the Bush-Reagan administration , so that what Bush complains
about now is due in part to Gov.

Dukakis s reluctance to increase
Uixcs, and in part to at he anti-environmcnial actions of Washington
under Bush-Reagan.
Also , b) today the League of Conversation Voters gave Dukakis a "B"
on environmental issues , Bush a "D",
citing the Republican failure to implement environmental regulations
promul gated under Carter; gutting
strip-mine clean-up enforcement;
easy granting of off-shore oil leases;
and failure to effectively enforce
toxic waste clean up under the Superfund legislation enacted under Carter.
For environmentalists the choice is
clear cut: Dukakis-Bcnlscn for an
environmentally sound future.

Parking still a prob lem
To the Editor
Bloomsburg University continues
to try and solve its ever present parking problem. When I came back from
summer break , I noticed some
changes were made as to where students could and could not park .
However, I have not seen any changes
dial will benefit the students.
I am a Mass Communications student who works in the McCormick
Building everyday, just like many
professors. In past years, it was hard
to find a parking space near
McCormick , but it was possible since
their were three rows of student parking in the back of die building.
Unfortunately, the three rows of
sludeni parking now read All Faculty.

Camp aign issues come into focus

by Paul Mellon
Editorial Columnist

As the presidential race begins to
swing into full gear, some of the
major themes of the campaign are
beginning to come into focus. The
nation will soon begin focusing on the
two men trying to become the next
president of the United States.
After the Democratic convention in
Atlanta , it seemed that Mike Dukakis
was on top of the world. He held a
commanding lead in the polls and had
apparently shifted the focus of the
campaign to highlight "competance"
rather than "idiology", or at least
making people forget he was a liberal.
Unfortunately for him all that summertime progress has faded like a
good tan. The Duke has crashed in the
polls and the Bush campaign is now
succeeding in bringing out the issues
which have branded the "L" word
back on Dukakis.
I guess you can 't blame the Duke
fornot wanting to talk about the issues
though , especially when one does a
little research into what Governor
Dukakis has been up to during the last
four years.
The Duke's greatest claim to fame
has been the "Massachusetts Miracle." A study by Roland Ferguson
and Helen Ladd from Harvard cast a
pretty dim light on this so called miracle.

It seems that most of the progess in
the economy occured under Ed King,
the governor before Dukakis, who is
credited for greatly expanding private
sector jobs, holding down taxes and
enacting pro-business legislation. In
fact one of the major reasons Dukakis
was booted out of office in 1978 was
because he raised taxes after promising not to and adding over 21,000 jobs
to the government payroll.
Other interesting statistics are the
types of jobs created by the Duke.
Seems that of the 46,8000 new jobs
created during the last few years, 70
percent were in the low paying service and retail sectors while only .3
percent were in manufacturing.
Perhaps Dukakis better be more
carefull when ridiculing the 15.5
million new jobs created under Reagan and Bush which averaged
$20,000 or more. Also, the great
"Budget Balancer", as he calls himself, is credited with boosting the
Massachusetts state budget 40 percent over the rate of inflation as government spending has increased
about four times the amount of the
federal budget. The state pension
system is currently on the verge of
collapse due to Dukakis' creative
financing techniques.
The Democratic state legislature
would like to talk to Mike about all
this but he recently said he'd prefer to

wait until after the election or until
Massachusetts begins to fal l apart ,
which ever comes first. Ah, the sound
<?!^pmpctence.
The Duke proclaims he is tough on
crime. Unless, of course, you arc a
convicted murderer in which case
tough Mike would give you a weekend pass out of jai l so you could
terrorize the populous. A guy by the
name of Horton did that two years ago
when he walked out of prison one
weekend on a pass and proceeded to
slab a young man repeatedly and then
rape his wife.
The Duke backed off the prisoner
furlough program after that incidnet
and now j ust opposes the sale of handguns to Americans trying to protect
themselves from the murderers that
Dukakis lets party on the weekends.
And as if the good Governor needs
another reason to avoid any talk about
issues there are his views on National
Defense. Nowhere is Dukakis exposed as a typical liberal of the Carter
years as on this issue. While most
Americans supported the Grenada
invasion, not to mention the people of
Grenada , the Duke opposed it. He felt
the bombing of Libya was wrong
since it might have been "an attempt
to assassinate the head of another
state.
The threat of communist expansion
into Central America is more favor-

able to Mike than the threat of Contra
Aid and, of course, the Duke has
never met a nuclear missle he liked.
He would stop funding for the MX,
the Midgetman , and the Trident D-5
irregardlcss of what the Soviets do. It
seems that Dukakis would like to
unilaterally disarm , build a few more
tanks, and then ask Gorbachev if he
would do the same.
But Dukakis' main problem with
the military and foreign policy seems
to be he doesn 't have a clue as to how
they work. He has been quoted as
calling S.D.I, a "fantasy " but recently
said he might deploy S.D.I, if it
worked. Yet he would cripple all
funding and says S.D.I, can never be
tested to see if it works. All this from
the man who calls this an election
about competence.
Mike Dukakis is about as liberal as
they come and whether he likes it or
not, America is not ready to elect
another liberal to the White House.
Dukakis' whole thrust over the summer was to make America forget
about the "L" word. However, as long
as George Bush can continue to focus
the campaign on the issues, the Duke
is in big trouble, as some recent polls
suggest.
With any luck, Republicans will
once again salute Jimmy Carter in
November and thank him for all he
has done.

Please someone explain to me why
they would supply more faculty parking when supposedl y the university
has accepted 180 students over the
quota .
I know the faculty doesn 't need 28
new parking spaces for themselves.
For instance, at 12 noon on Tuesday,
there were 21 open parking spaces in
the faculty parking lot. Now they have
28 new spaces to choose from . Maybe
I would understand the method to
their madness if the administration
had expanded the Mass Comm. department. But we all know that didn 't
happen.
There arc times when I am working
in McCormick from early morning to
late in the evening (longer hours than

most faculty) and dislike walking
clear across campus to find my car. I
wonder why ? Young women are
constantly warned about walking on
campus after hours, but now I have no
choice.
In the future I would like to see
more student parking spaces that are
somewhere near a classroom. I am not
the only student that has these views.
There are other Mass Comm. students
who put in long hours just as I do.
Some live as many as eight miles
away. So, I guess I can just say
"Thanks a lot" for making it even
harder for mc to park my car.

To the Editor
I would like to address all the professors who teach 100 level courses.
I'm a junior and completing the last of
my "requirements" this semester.
During the past three years, I' ve noticed one welcomed difference that
separates a few instructors from the
rest. Enthusiasm and an obvious love
the subject being presented.
For me, a professor who shows
excitement when teaching is the push
that will motivate myself to read the
assigned chapters.
Even though some of the required
courses have no appeal to me, when I
see a professor 's eyes light up when
sharing information, a bounce when
walking to the blackboard , I realize
that if this person loves the subject so
much , it is obviously worth my effort
to explore it.
I have also had professors who literally mumble through their lessons.

Approaching their task with the enthusiasm of going to a dental appointment is contagious as well.
Yes , I understand the increasing
apathy of students must be frustrating. More students on this campus can
name all the MTV V.J.s but not five
Amendments to our Constitution. It's
a tragedy and I empathize with you.
But please keep the faith. Don't
hold back your passion for the subject
you are teaching. Your are selling
your life 's work every time you step
in front of a class.
If you can evoke that excitement
into just one student in every section
to the extent that student will want to
pursue your field of study as a major,
isn 't it worth it? Isn't that one of the
greatest rewards of being an educator?

Practice what
yo u teach

Candidates

continued from page 1
Angeles Times poll published last
week said they believed the next
president should take the country in a
"new direction " rather than continue
Reagan 's policies.
A Gallup poll for Times Mirror Co.
last May showed that citizens who
think , economic conditions will
improve in the coming year had
declined to 24 percent from 35
percent in January 1984, the year of
Reagan 's landslide re-election. The
number believing conditions would
worsen had climbed to 20 percent
from 13 percent. Moreover, more
than a third of those surveyed said
they expected a U.S. economic
collapse in the next 10 years because
of foreign competition .
Polling evidence aside, many
Democrats believe Dukakis needs to
concentrate on the economic issue
simply because it provides his best, if
not his only, shot at the presidency.
To shore up his standing on defense
issues, Dukakis spent most of last
week spelling out his views on
weaponry and even dutifully riding
around in a tank for the television
cameras. But few believe that , given
his limited experience in such
matters, Dukakis can get anything
better than a draw out of the debate
;
over national security issues.
Meanwhile , the Democratic
standard bearer seems to be losing the
argu ment over social issues and
values, which has been dominated by
his attempts to defend and explain his
veto of a law that would have required
the Pledge of Allegiance to be recited
in Massachusetts schools.
"He needs to grab hold of the
economic issue and not allow it to be
George Bush' s issue ," says
Democratic pollster Peter Hart, an
adviser to the ill-fated 1984
presidential campaign of Walter F.
Mondale. "He has to bring it down to
stakes people care about _ what is
going to happen to my family, how
secure do I feel."
But to carry this off successfully,
even some Dukakis advisers
concede, the normally cautious and
cryptic governor will have to be
bolder and more explicit about what
he would, do as chief executive.
"We need to make our case," says
Tom Kiley, Dukakis' pollster and
strategist. "It rests on very different
views (from Bush' s) of where we are
and where we need to go to secure our
future. And to the extent that we are
sort of the challengers , it is
incumbent on us to define the change
that Dukakis represents."
Dukakis has already begun taking
on that challenge, most recently with
his proposal for financing college
loans through a payroll withholding
scheme and, before that , with an idea
for a "Fund to Rebuild America,"
which would target $500 million a
year on economically troubled areas.
Setting forth such proposals entails
risks for Dukakis, even though his
ideas seem modest when judged by
the grandiose standards of past
Democratic
administrations.
Although Dukakis rival Rev. Jesse
Jackson called the $500 million
rebuilding plan trivial, Bush has
seized upon it as evidence that
Dukakis is j ust another big-spending,
tax-raising liberal.
This isn t a helping hand, it s the
same old heavy hand of govemme
nt," Bush charged. "And just wait
until Congress gets its hands on this
pork barrel. The hand will get heavier
and heavier."
At the same time, Bush has
troubles of his own in defending the
administration's economic policies
and advancing his own ideas. As the
incumbent vice president , his
candidacy is hostage to events
outside his control.
Sometimes this works to his
benefit, as happened last week when
the announcement of a sharp drop in
the nation s trade defict cut into the
Democratic argument that the U.S.
economy is threatened by foreign
competition.
On the other hand, last month 's
increase in the Federal Reserve's
discount rate, engineered by the Fed
to reduce the threat of inflation, also
raised the possibility of higher
interest rates across the board and
heig htened concern about an
economic slowdown.
So goes the economy in this
presidential campaign, cutting both
ways at once. So complex are the
issues that each side can muster facts
and figures to support its own case.

Senator Helfrick will speak on
"ProLife at the Polls" tonight at

CornicTbooks still misj udged

byMissiMenapace
StaffWriter
My mother thinks I'm destroying
my mind. It's not that she disapproves
of reading, but the X-M en and Justice
League International' s she's been
finding around the house arc starting
to worry her. "It's so childish ," she
says.
She should be more in tunc with the
times. According to the March 14,
1988 issue of Time magazine, the
average comic book reader is a 20
year-old college student.
Wh y would adults read comic
books? "It's the same reason Superman has been popular for so long,"
says Bloomsburg University junior
Phil Hoeflich. "Everybody needs a
hero." He says reading the Silver
Surfer, Manhunter and Daredevil
helps him relax.
Comic book collectors like Phil are
drawn the hobby by a new, sophisticated , complex comic book.
In the 1940s and '50s, supcrhcroes
could soundly tromp villains in a long,

men the same year. The limited series
explores the chaos that would occur if
supcrhcroes actually existed. Retired
supcrhcroes live in a vastly rewritten
version of America in the '80s. Richard Nixon is still in the White House
and apparently plotting to kill the
former crimefighters. They are forced
back into action while global unrest
brings the world to the edge of nuclear
war.
Stories like Dark Knight andWatchmen challenge the ju venile
stereotype of comic books. Outside
the superhero genre, much of what is
being published is definitely not for
children.
In Maus , published in graphic novel
form in 1987,Art Spiegelman tells the
harrowing story of his father 's life in
Nazi Germany. Cats and mice portrayNazis and the Jews.
Graphic novel comics have a long,
slick, high-quality format, allowing
for fuller treatment of a story and
better reproduction of artwork.
Innovative work is done by small

obligatory fight scene. Only the bad
guys got hurt. There was no blood ,
and the superhero didn 't even rip his
tights.
In today 's Superman , the emphasis
is c?i the man more than on the super.
Characters with complex lives and
human shortcomings have replaced
nearly infallible supcrhcroes.
The current bcstselling * comic
book, The X-Men , is a good example.
It features Wolverin e, one of Marvel's
most popular characters. A beer-guzzling, cigar-smoking mutant , Wolverine prefers to use his razor-sharp
claws first and ask questions later.
The tension his violence causes between his teammates is also a frequent
theme.
Comic book wri ters are exploring
the paradoxes and ironies of the superhero myth. Batman: The Dark
Knight Returns , a 1986 miniscries
was tremendously popular. Itpresents
a 55 year-old vigilante Batman returning to action with a female Robin.
DC Comics also published Watch-

independent publishers and Japanese
and European companies.
Graphic novels and import comics
are expensive. The corner drugstore,
where most comic books used to be
sold, has been replaced by specialty
stores like The Golden Unicorn in
Hazleton and 11".roes and Legends in
Wilkcs-Barre.
College bookstores arc also responding to the increasing demand for
comic books.
The Bloomsburg University Store
carries a handful of comic books,
including The X-Men , X-Factor, the
popular Avengers and The Amazing
Spider man.
As adult audiences continue to
grow, the potential of the comic book
will be stretched even further. Superman turned 50 this year, and graphic
novels are reaching the bestseller
lists.
It seems the only obstacle left for
comic books is to leap tall preconceptions in a single bound.

Planes. Trains and Automobiles 9 entertaining comedy

by Scott B. Beaver
f o r The Voice
I'm sure we've all experienced the
"thrill" of getting from one place to
another within a certain amount of
time. We sometimes discover during
the course of our journeys, however,
that life doesn 't always go according
to plan , and how just one thing, like an
overbearing companion, can upset
the balance of human nature.
This common occurrence is the plot
behind the movie Planes, Trains, and
Automobiles. This delightful com-

Healey's next target: Springsteen.
Healey asked Peter Gabriel, who
had committed to Springsteen was on
tour last spring, and ask for the rock
star's help. "He looked up without
hesitating and said , "Sounds OK to
me.' "
(Though headliners are donating
their services, strictly a benefit: band
members and stage personnel are getting paid. The main costs, however,
are transportation and staging.)
At the press conference the day
before the tour opened, each of the
artists explained his and her reasons
for joining the tour. But it was
Healey, with his zeal, who made the
most moving address.
"Our goals are simple: to turn govrights issues raised by Amnesty International?
Mary Daly, an Amnesty media
advisor who also worked on the Conspiracy of Hope tour, said "I felt terrific at the end of the 1986 tour. In the
wake of the razzle-dazzle of a highprofile entertainment event, there
was a simple and clear political message that had gotten through. The reason we are doing this one (iheHuman
Rights Now! tour)is that we obviously think that it can happen again. I
think it would be a shame if this were
only viewed as one of the greatest
rock V roll events of all time—because there is so much more at stake."
Echoed Healey, "The thing that
excites me is that we'll be reaching
Third World countries, people
who've never been touched by Amnesty before...poor young people
who are illiterate and can 't read our
printed pamp hlets. This is like a
magical, musical newspaper telling
them of their rights.
"I believe people can be message
because I' ve seen persons on this tour
touched. When Sting played They
Dance Alone (a song about wives and
mothers of political victims in Chile)
for me before he put it on his new
record, I told him, "Forget about all
the No. 1songs you may have already
done; this is better than any of them.
This is going to become the national
anthem of Latin America. When you
die, they'll play this. '
"That song shows how people can
be touched by aspirations of freedoms—why I believe this message is
powerful enoug h to make a difference."

edy is about two businessmen whoget
stuck together as traveling companions because of an unfortunate
weather situation.
John Candy and Steve Martin try to
get from New York to Chicago by any
means of transportation possible. At
the same time, they have to deal with
each other's idiosyncrasies. This, and
the fact that they both are running out
of lime and money, makes for an
excellent film.
It all starts in New York, where our
hero, Steve Martin , has just finished a
day at the office before leaving for

Chicago for Christmas vacation. The
lecherous John Candy steals a cab
away from Martin , along with his
luggage that was in the trunk.
Eventually, they meet again at the
airport and find that they both share
the same plight—al l flights leaving
New York have been cancelled due to

The Grateful Dead are on the road
and it's full speed ahead. The Dead
have been performing to their multitude of fans for twenty-three years
now and there has been no looking
back. With Jerry Garcia's recent cocaine problems on the shelf, ihe.Dead
are presently jamming together on a
virtual non-stop tour around the U.S.
The Dead rolled into Madison
Square Garden Thursdaynight for the
second of eight sold-out shows. They
put on an unforgettable performance
for the 22,000 fans lucky enough to
get tickets.

Though the first set began a little
slowly, it built to a thundering climax,
bringing the house down at full force
with their classic version oiDeal.
The second set started right where
the first left off , blasting into such
greats as Playing in the Band , Uncle
John 's Band , and , of course, their
classic Drums in Space . .Guitarists
Jerry Garcia and Bob Weir played
every tune at maximum intensity,
adding continues rocking jams at the
end of each song proving that time
will not slow down this band.
By the end of this three-hour show,
the Dead succeeded in bringing their
show to a smashing climax with the

hit rum On Your Love Light. They
returned to lead a sing-a-long with the
22,000 die-hards dancing in the aisles
with an encore of U.S. Blues.
When it was all over, it was obvious
that there is no concert like a concert
with the Grateful Dead. It 's guaranteed to be a trip worth taking.

The 'Dead 1 are on the road again

Answering machines
changed civilization
and social life
by Doug Rapson
StaffWriter
In the beginning there were no answering machines. The world was a
very disconnected place. But one
day this rather inventive lad was
sitting around thinking of a way he
could irritate all of his friends and
relatives, even people he had never
even met before. Well, the idea
might have stopped there, only he
mentioned it to a friend of his. We'll
call this hypothetical friend Al. Al
just happened to be really mechanically inclined.
And so, one day when our creative
sort called Al he got a recording saying something to the effect of , "Gee,
I' m not in right now and don 't you
feel really stupid listening to this pile
of nuts and bolts talk to you. It
doesn 't even know its own zodiac
sign. At any rate, if you leave a
message at the sound of the beep, I
may call you back when I return , if I
am so inclined."
Well ever since that eventful date.
more and more people have been
wanting to annoy, inform , and embarrass their friends without even
having to talk to them. Lots of people
thought the idea of leaving a message on a machine was a really neat
idea , especially when accompanied
by a similar reply.
My roommate and I discussed all
of this and decided that we may be
really popular and not know it. We
may be missing all sorts of phone
calls from congressmen , dictators ,
our parents, and, most importantl y,
women. After kicking this idea
around for a while and deciding that
there are some people that we really
would like to annoy quite a great
deal , we bought an answering machine.
After shopping around amongst
the well-known names such as AT &

BloomRbiirg Student Concert Committee

T, GE, and Sanyo, we picked the king
of the answering machines: CONAIR. Now while it is true that Conair
is more widely known for their hair
styling tools, by no means does our
answering machine blow. We felt that
for what we paid (it was ridiculously
cheap as answering machines go), we
got our money 's worth.
After buy ing the machine, the backup battery , and a couple of extra tapes,
we returned home to set up our electronic receptionist. It only took amere
half an hour or so to get the thing
plugged in , powered up, and ready to
roll. We only had one problem.
Although we wanted to irritate our
friends , we did want them to remain
our friends. We also did not want our
parents to stop payment on our latest
tuition check. What would we put on
our new found toy? And make no
mistake, that's what it was — a toy.
After recording our first big message, my roomie and I purposefully
left the room. Our manual told us that ,
upon our return , a flashing red light
would indicate that we have been able
to capture those messages that , until
now , had been lost to the Twilight
Zone.
After an hour or three we returned to
our room. Rushing up the stairs, and
almost forgetting to unlock the door
before thrusting it open, we nearly
killed each other try ing to get to our
newest technological wonder. The
red light was flashing.
We rewound the tape on the machine and heard a beep, followed by a
click, followed by adial tone. Oh well ,
it was a start. Since then , we have
gotten quite a number of messages, at
least two or three a day. And , as
should be expected , we get our token
dial tone, now and again.
So, if you happen to cal l and you
don 't get to talk to my roommate or to
me, don't hang up because "Answering Machines need love too."

MICHAEL HERBERT
HEAD COACH

COACHES' CORNER

WOMEN'S TENNIS

"It enhances their overall college experience, as docs participation in any extra-curricular activity. It's for the enjoyment of competition. Tennis is sort of a lifetime sport—it 's something they
can play the rest of their lives if they 're interested in doing that."

"Coaches ' Corner " will be a weekly "column " designed 10 give students and athletes alike a different
perspective on the world of collegiate athlctics.Sometimcs the column will appear in a question/answer
format with the various coaches' responses; sometimes it may be just an interview with a single coach.An
attempt will be made each week to contact all coaches involved in fal l sports. However, due to time
constraints and unavoidable circumstances (like travel and away games), it may not be possible to contact
each coach every week. Any comments directed to The Voice or questions directed to the coaches of
Bloomsburg University can be brought to the Voice office in Kehr Union. Maybe you have a question or
an idea you 'd like to sec in "Coaches' Corner "

^¦;
;

JAN HUTCHIN SON
HEAD COACH
FIELD HOCKEY
"Basically, my theory is that an athlete is getting a lot more than just winning and losing.
I feel very strongl y about the student/athlete program. Athletes learn how to handle frustration in sports,
to identify weaknesses and make them into strength s, and they also learn dedication , discipline, and perserverancc. In team sports they learn to sacrifice for a common goal. What you learn in sports is
invaluable—it 's been proven over time that sports are a great training ground for life. It's an education
that helps to build traits to become a better person."

by Kelly Cuth bert ,
, Sports Editor

'.

TOM MARTUCCI
HEAD COACH
WOMEN'S CROSS COUNTRY

Question of the week:
Why would you encourage a student to participate in a sport, and how does this athletic
experience tie into the overall college experience?

"Students need an outlet. I think athletics is a great way to do that , to discipline a student
to get on a good budget or a scheduling of time. That 's very important in college. It keeps their mind in
a certain situation—it 's athletics and it 's academics. The situation develops discipline and willpower to
make them successful in all areas.I think athletics will definitel y enhance classroom work."

PETE ADRIAN
HEAD FOOTBALL COACH

"One reason is that you learn a lot of things on the athletic field that you can 't learn in the
classroom. Sports are like life. There's a plan , objectives , and you try to reach a goal. You either succeed
or you don 't. If you don 't, you pick yourself up. In life there's a lot of adversity, a lot of disappointment.
You accept graciously when you win and when you lose, you learn to go on. You learn that in all athletics ,
not just football. Like life, you could do everything right but face rejection or defeat because of things beyond
your control. Many don 't know how to cope with this. It 's like losing a big championship game. You learn
life goes on and you 'll reach that goal die next time. Athletics teaches that."
!

CHARLES CHRONISTER
HEAD COACH
MEN'S BASKETBALL

'.
'.
'.
;

"It allows a student to make a contribution to the university in a very visible way—they
(athletes) get recognition and represent the university in front of the public. It's rewarding and ego-satisfying.Tt might help them from an academic standpoint and get them in a regiment that becomes necessary.
They are giving something back (to the university)."

!
;
i

STEVE GOODWI N
HEAD COACH
MEN'S SOCCER

;

"It just adds to their experience. You get a closer relationship with your teammates—a
relationship that you might not get in college, with the possible exception of your roommate. You create a
strong bond with the other people who are participating. Hopefully, it adds discipline and order to their life.
Many athletes do better in season than out of season in the classroom because they have a tendency to organize themselves better. When you have other commitments , you make the effort to do the studying
because you don't have other limes to do it."

;
;
;
j

ROGER SANDERS
HEAD COACH
WRESTLING
"It contributes to the total development of students , stressing that they can 't lose insight
of why they're here. The number one priority is to get their education , and because it 's a good healthy thing
to do fitness-wise. They have a skill others don't have. It gives them the chance to show off the skill and
helps to develop the overall human being. Hopefully, they become a better person. They have a chance
to become more disciplined , which carries over to their studies. They also have the opportunity to become
family with teammates and coaches."
DAVE RIDER
HEAD COACH
MEN'S/WOMEN'S SWIMMING
"The main reason is the friends you make. Engaging in a sport , you become much closer
to the students involved in it. You spend a lot of time with the peop le involved with the sportin a lotof
different situations involving good times and bad times."

GEORGE SKOMSKY
HEAD COACH
GOLF

"Sports are an extension of life. Not that an athlete has an edge, but life has a lot of disappointments. Maybe they 'll handle life better through athletic experience. "

Sports Editor
Yes my friends , it is time for this
sports editor to start writing those
;ontrovcrsial editorials that you know
md love (wc arc assuming that you
appreciated them). You people can
isk mc different questions and I will
wswer them to the best of my ability,
nil there is one thing that you must
mow , I really don 't want to answer or
predict anything unless I have at least
some facts behind mc, you people
probably think that 's obvious , but I'm
:>nc to follow my heart , and being a
¦rue Philadel phia fan I've been eating
ny words as of late. (But dial ' s a
Jiffcrcnt argument entire ly).
So let 's go to Socul and talk some
cnnis ,(I know wc can 't really go to
socul Toasunaslcr , but lei 's just pre.cnd). This is die first time that tennis
.vill be an official sport in the Ol ympics since il was eliminated in 1924 ,
because of lack of talent.
Now it 's back! In 1984 , tennis was
in exhibition sport , now in 1988 processionals will dominate the compctiion. They will play on hard courts
iimiliar to the ones at the U.S. Open in
-lushing Meadows.
On the women 's side, the USA will
lave Chris Evert , Pain Shrivcr , and
Lino. Garrison. Zina Garrison is playng well as she just recently made the
icmifinals al the Open. Chris Even
vill enhance die chances of die USA
licking up a medal , but who can stop
slcffi Graff? Steffi winning the gold
s the same as mc going to sleep toli ght: inevitable. She just recently
von the Grand Slam which is the
liglicsl honor thai can be achcived as
i tennis player. She virtually breezed
hrough the Grand Slam , she is playng al a diffcrrcnt level than any oilier
¦voman on the lour. The only one
person who would have the sli ghtest
:hancc of healing her is not even
j ompciing, and that is Martina
S'a vratilova.
On the men 's side , I would have
licked Mats Wilandcr. Mats has jusl
aken the #1 spot from Ivan Lcndl b>
seating him in the finals of the U.S.
Dpcn. He also captured the French
Dpcn and the Australian OPen earlier
his year , making him the first person
o capture 3 of the 4 Grand Slam tildes
since Jimmy Connors in 1974. But
ust my luck , he recently pulled out ol
he competition. So how about the
LISA? nol. They are relying on Brad
Gilbert , who is coming off a knee inury, and Tim Mayolte who only
seems to play well on the Grass of
Wimbledon , which is not in South
Korea. Maybe the USA should have
¦showed a liiilc patience and someone
might have gotlcn hot. Sounds crazy?
[ have one name for you: Andre
Agassi. The man is poscsscd. The 18
yr. olf from Las Vegas, won five
3rand Prix tides within this year,
along with semi-final showings at die
French and U.S. Open.. The good
news for the men is the doubles team
af Flach and Seguso. This is the #1
.luoin die world which gives the USA
their best chance to win the
^old(along with all those people that
:an win Big Mac 's).
Anyway, look for Boris Becker oi
Stefan Edberg to win the gold in
picn 's singles. Becker has the honoi
bf winning Wimbledon at the age ol
17 and 18, but has not done very well
in 1988. But I still say his game will
jump a notch or two when he starts
playing for his country . Stefan won
Wimbledon this year and is ranked in
Lhe top five in the world. Look for one
3f the best confrontations of the
Olympic event, as the big serve of
Boris Becker takes on the flawless
serve and volley game of Edberg 's.
Should prove to be the best match of
.he event.
So what are the possibilities of the
JSA doing well in this event? slim to
lone. Look for Flach and Seguso to
lossibly take the Gold a and for Even
o possibly take the silver.. . If I must
lick a long shot I will go with Mayottc
n men 's, to capture the Bronze, or
j arrison to take the silver or the
Jronze on the female side.
Well those are my picks for Socul.
Jopefully tennis will prove to be sucessful as well as the USA.

Huskies defeat Lock Haven 17-6
by Dave Sauter
Staff Writer
Leonard Bluitt highlighted
Bloomsburg University 's homeopener with 135 rushing yards as the
Huskies defeated Lock Haven University Saturday afternoon 17-6.
Rain showers drenched the 1,358
fans in attendance , who witnessed a
game filled with turnovers and penaltics.
The rain had a definite impact on
the game overall. There were alot of
players slipping on the wet grass as
they foug ht to find some kind of traction.
Additionally, despite the efforts of
lhe official s, the ball was very wet
leading to the high number of turn overs, seven in all.
However, despite the terrible playing conditions , both the Husky offense and defense managed to turn in
another fine effort.
Bloomsburg opened the scoring on
their second drive of the game as they
easil y moved the ball 79 yards in only
nine plays.
Crucial in the drive were quarterback Paul Vcnesky and Bluitt. Vencsky had two key runs and two big
passes to Jeff Sparks and Paul Lonergan , for nine yards and three yards
respectively.
Bluitt had a big 30-yard run that
took the Huskies to the Lock Haven
one-yard line and scored die first of

his two touchdowns two plays later.
Bluitt credited his big run to the
Bloomsburg offensive coordinator ,
Joe Viadclla.
"Alot of the credit has to go to
Coach Vindella. He put in a new play
called the 42-countcr. He just threw
that in in the middle of the week. He
rarely gels all the credit he deserves
when he breaks defenses down like
that."
Mark Weiss was perfect on his extra
point attempi and the Huskies had the
early lead , 7-0.
Lock Haven jumped back into die
game midway throug h the third quarter on a big pass play.
Quarterback Radford Mason
heaved a long throw to freshman wide
receiver Derrick Bcachum who broke
a tackle and sprinted 86 yards for a
touchdown.
However, Jeff Vroman 's extra
point attempt was wide to the left and
the Huskies still led , 7-6.
The rest of the Bloomsburg scoring
came in the fourth quarter as the Huskies were safel y able to pad their lead.
The rushing of Vencsky sparked
Bloomsburg as the fourth quarter
opened to a 14-6 lead.
Vencsky piled up 30 yards running
the ball on a drive of 66 yards. Two of
his runs came in crucial third and long
situations.
Leonard Bluitt scored his second
touchdown on a three yard pilch and

Drew Lotsis was on the money for the
extra point.
The scoring was finished up on
Bloomsburg 's next drive as Lotsis
connected on a 27-yard field goal.
Senior fullback , Eric Spcccc ,
sparked the drive with runs of 27 yards
and 14 yards, as the Huskies moved
die ball 51 yards before the drive
stalled on the Lock Haven ten yard
line.
However, die game was one of
missed opportunities for Bloomsburg,
as turnovers cruched the Huskies deep
in Bald Eagle territory as Vencsky was
intercepted four times in or near the
Lock Haven endzonc.
However, Vanesky still enjoyed a
good day as he completed 12 of 19
passes for 134 yards. He also opened
up the game by completing his first
seven throws in a row.
In addition to Bluitt 's 135 yards on
30 carries, the entire Husky running
game enjoyed a fine day as the team
amassed 275 net yards. Vcnesky
gained 59 yards in 13 attempts while
Speece ran for 68 yards in only 10
tries.
By way of receiving, Bluitt caug ht
four passes while Lonergan pulled in
three of his own. Sparks, Speece, and
wide receiver Jon Smith also had receptions.
On the defensive side of the field ,
Todd Leitzel, Trent Dennis, and
Joshua Lee all enjoyed a fine day.

Leitzel led the team in tackles gaining credit for eight.
Three were unassisted and one
came for a loss of five yards.
Dennis was a horror show for Lock
Haven quarterback , Radford Mason,
as he pulled in two interceptions and
kept the Bald Eagle receivers well
covered.
Lee enjoyed a typical fine afternoon
as he had seven tackles, four unassisted , and a quarterback sack for a ten
yard loss.
The star righl tackle commented on
the improving defensive squad. "I
think it's a matter of getting better and
better as die season progresses," he
said.
"Wc know what we have to do when
they get close to our endzone, and wc
just bear down."
Two other Huskies deserve credit
for fine days. Freshman running back,
Jerry Marks, the all time Pennsylvania
rushing leader enjoyed a fine 43 yard
kickoff return.
Punter Jimmy Noye had a good day
as he punted seven limes for a 31.4
yard average. However, his average
does not reflect die three times he
pinned Lock Haven inside their fifteen yard line, or the punt he somehow
got off after the ball was snapped over
his head.
The Huskies next game is at home
against Kutztown University this Saturday at 1:00 pm.

Last Satcrday, the Bloomsburg
Men 's Soccer team lost another
tough game in which Uicy deserved to
win. The final score was 1-0 in Millersville University 's favor.
The Huskies outshot th eir opponents 22-8, but were unable to put the
ball in the net. "It was a really disappointing loss," said Coach Steve
Goodwin. "We played well and totall y dominated the game. "
Saturday 's weather, cold and very
wet, affected BU in a negative way.
The rain made it tougher for the team
to exhibit their strong passing game.
The weather did not, however, hurt
Millersville's style so much , that of
long ball passes and running to them.
Yet the Huskies did unquestionably
control the tempo of the game by
keeping the ball in their opponent's
half of the field. Millersville scored
the lone goal off on a counterattack.
The ball was crossed well and headed
in by a Millersville player.
Bloomsburg had alot of chances to
scosre. Good hard shots went wide,
one even hit the post, but none
seemed to go in. Saturday 's game was
like that of the West Chester match ,
when the Huskies completely outplayed and outshot thier opponents,
but couldn 't come up with the victory.
"We've sort of dug a hole for ourselves as far as the playoffs are concerned," Coach Goodwin states. BU
must beat Kutztown and East
Stroudsburg, both conference games,
to claim a spot in the playoffs. "It's
definately not impossible. We can
beat East Stroudsburg, but it's going
to be tough."
The Huskies are now 1-3-1 overall,
while they are 1-1-1 in the conference.
The team has consecutive away
games this week on Monday and
Wednesday, against Wilkes College
The Huskies do not return home
until a week from tomarow September 27, against Susquehanna at 4 pm.

The BU field hockey squad overwhelmed Mary wood last Monday and
Gettysburg last Tuesday, garnering
two shutout victories with an amazing
combined total of 18 goals. The Huskies continued their winning streak as
they defeated Slippery Rock by a narrow 2-1 margin on Saturday, and IUP
4-0 on Sunday.
High scoring and shutouts seem to
come with the territory. The Huskies
have unquestionably dominated every
team they've played so far this season—a feat which has become a tradition for Jan Hutchinson , the 11-year
coach and driving force behind the
success. She raises her career mark to
an incrediblel60-29-14.
Thirteen of last week's 18 goals
were scored against Marywood.
"They were very weak, " Hutchinson
stated. "Our varsity only played nine
minutes, and our junior varsity went in
and scored eight goals."
Five BU players scored two goals
apiece: Sharon Reilly, Cindy Hurst,
Kristcn Moyer, Jill Firmstone and
Kim Henningcr. Alicia Terrizzi, Kim
Burke and Kelly Adams also knocked
one into the cage.
Gettysburg proved to be a tougher
match , but they weren 't prepared for
BU. Goalie April Kolar recorded five
saves in BU's second shutout of the
season. Senior Sharon Reilly, tied for
lead scorer last season with 14 goals,
has already amassed seven goals this
season. She drove two into the cage
against Gettysburg, while Susie

Slocum , Cindy Hurst, and Christy
Gibson each added one.
"I diought wc played pretty well, "
Hutchinson stated. "There were moments when we broke down because
they (Gettysburg) play a hard, fast
game, but we had better passing. We
played the best game we've played so
far this year."
Defense was just as integral to victory as the offense. "Center Link
Daneen Fero played her usual strong
game," Hutchinson commented. Also
adding to a strong defense were left
link Trudy Horst and right link Michelle Carcarey. Hutchinson added that
freshman Gisela Smith , center back,
"really broke up a lot of their fast
breaks."
As a team, BU took 49 shots on goal
and caused 18 penalty corners while
Gettysburg took only 10 shots and
earned just two corners .
The Huskies took 40 shots on goal
against Slippery Rock, who only took
10. BU also.amasscd 27 corners to their
9. All goals, however, came in the
second half. Christy Gibson drove the
ball into the cage first , assisted by
Betsy Warmderdam. Eighteen minutes later teammate Cindy Hurst
knocked one in on a penalty stroke. BU
goalie April Kolar recorded five saves.
BU added another shutout victory to
their record as four players scored
against IUP. Susie Slocum scored first,
assisted by Daneen Fero. She decided
to do it again one and a half minutes
later, this time assisted by Trudy Horst.
Christy Gibson knocked the third goal
in two minutes later, unassisted. The

last goal came from Reilly, who was
assisted by Cindy Hurst.
BU once again outdid their opponent, taking 39 shots to their six. They
also earned 18 penalty corners to their
four. Kolar made two saves.
BU hosts East Stroudsburg on
Wednesday at 3 p.m.
