Alcohol Awareness Week

Campus alcohol abuse examined

by John Risdon
News Editor
This week, Oct. 16 to 22 is Alcohol
Awareness Week al Bloomsburg, as
declared by University Presiden t
Harry Ausprich. A line of programs
and meetings arc scheduled in the
dorms and on campus to focus attention on problems associated witli student alcohol consumption.
Program s and discussions during
this week include a live video teleconference titled "Alcohol-A Special
Report", which will be held Tuesday
in two forms. At 11 a.m. in the University Forum conference is formatted for faculty and administration. A
student segment will be held at 8:30
p.m. in the Coffeehouse.
The panel of the conference will be
composed of several college administrators and the national president of
Mothers Against Drunk Driving and
the leader of BACCUS, a student
alcohol group, who will address college alcohol concerns.
Other programs will screen films
which address substance abuse problems such as Less Than Zero which
stars Robert Downey Jr. and Andrew
McCarthy.
The aim of the week is to increase
consciousness of alcohol misuse on
campus. Lori Bareness, residence life

greek coordinator started , "This year
alcohol abuse is a major focus which
the university is building on."
Bareness continucd ,"We arc hoping for students to look at their behavior and examine how alcohol affects
their lives and to be responsible for
their friends. Awareness is what we're
after. "
Jeannie Carpenter, tlie director of
student life, explained that the residence hall advisors played a large
role in making students aware of alcohol in the beginning of the semester.
They were also responsible for bulletin boards and had input on the programs offered in their halls this week.
"Wc have begun a shift toward
offering more programs for students
on campus during the weekends to
give underage students social alternatives," Carpenter commented .
She addcd ,"Not every one on campus drinks or has a problem with
alcohol. Wilh studen ts who actually
have a problem with alcohol , it defeats their purpose of getting an education on campus."
'The world is a m uch different place
than it wasonc year ago," Dr.Gcrrold
Griffis commented on the week, citing changes in the Greek system , and
toughening of state laws concerning
underage drinking.

He continued,"A new tone is being
set on campus, that says you do not
need to drink to have fun."
Griffis noted that the social scene
of the university has changed as far as
large alcohol parties and advocated
more non-alcoholic events.
"I would like to see more alternative events held to take the influence
of alcohol away from being a social
need," Griffis stated. "I'd like to see
Cheers operate much more frequentl y."
Cheers non-alcoholic nightclub will
move into the former bowling alley
located downstairs in the Kehr Union.
The nightclub is co-sponsored by the
program board and fraternities and
sororities. Bareness complimented the
Greeks for their involvement with
Cheers and believes that they will
make other advances in non-alcohol
activities, such as dances and parties
which several fraternities and sororities have hosted this semester.
"The Greeks set the social tone of
this school," Griffis commented.
"Some of the things that are happening are done due to pressures fo the
laws or due to probations. I've seen
definite change in the social scene
and sense an awareness that underage
drinking cannot continue as it did in
the past."

Ambassadors have positive attitudes
toward "Trading Places" and hope to
see this event implemented in coming
years.
Tickets may be purchased from any
Husky Ambassador or CGA Senator
for $ 1.Proceeds will benefit the CGA
scholarship fund.

Quayle assumes relaxed style to finish out campaign
by Cathleen Decker
LA. Times- Washington Times Service

WASHINGTON - Dan Quayle was
rolling into his stump speech in a
raucous college gymnasium in southwestern Louisiana 's bayou country
when a young woman screamed over
the din: "We love you , Dan!"
The Republican vice presidential
nominee grinned and leaned into the
microphone. "I've only been here a
short time, but I love you too!"
The quick reply spoke of bigger
things. This week, tlie Indiana senator, the candidate who so often displayed the tremulous fright of cornered prey, relaxed. Out came a
semblance of the old Dan Quayle, the
candidate he says he was during his
previous races: chipper, brashly confident and relentlessly aggressive.
He stopped to talk to a protester
outside a rally in Missoula, Mont. He
plied his audience wilh jokes in Albuquerque. He chatted with reporters
for an hour, accompanied by the blare
of rock music, as his chartered ict
flew across middle America.
The origins of Quaylc's much-ballyhooed declaration last week that he

was asserting independence from his
Bush campaign handlers are still
debated.
But whether Quayle is bucking the
handlers, as he says, or they are cannily allowing him to think he is, the
Indiana senator is exhibiting a markedly different style.
His new moves are hardly dramatic
departures from the typical political
campaign , but they represent a switch
from the insular, pre-dcclaration routine followed by Quayle. And he is
issuing them with a high-profile,
almost defiant tone.
Quayle calls his new strategy
"controlled spontaneity" and in
lengthy interviews describes himself
as a candidate who finally feels he has
his legs under him.
"I was just trying to feel my way
through this national campaign and
what the ground rules were, what the
expectations are," he said. "It's just
taken me a little while."
Substantively, not much has
changed since Quayle's announcement lhat he would follow his instincts rather than the dictates of the
Bush-campaign .

He still depends largely on speehes
written by Bush staffers, and at every
stop performs the vice presidential
nominee's duty: scorning the other
party 's presidential candidate, Massachusetts Gov. Michael S. Dukakis.
In Appleton, Wis., where he appeared at an airport rally before traveling here, Quayle sneered at at familiar topic, Dukakis' stewardship of the
Massachusetts environment.
"He thinks an oilman is someone
who just went swimming in Boston
Harbor," Quayle declared.
But his demeanor has warmed and
his one-liners are more naturally delivered. On Saturday in Eau Claire,
Wis., he was ushered into a rally and
- as his opponents often do - he made
a play on his name that theaudience in
the outdoors-oriented area greeted
with laughter.
"I' ve been told to keep my remarks
relatively brief," he said. "I understand Quayle-hunting season begins
at noon."
The easy charm acquired by most
national politicians - an element missing from Quayle's early repertoire has likewise begun to surface.

To residents of a home for the elderly in Greenville, 111., he offered a
gentle reminder. "Make sure you're
going to vote," he suggested, then
paused abeat. "That is, if you 're going
to vote for George Bush." The senior
citizens beamed at him as they would
a favorite grandson.
But his efforts are still ragged. His
answers to routinely-asked qucs tions
appear to come easier,but Quayle can
still be stumped by the most ordinary
- but unexpected - queries.
In Fort Smith, Ark., the morning
after George Bush' s perceived victory in the second presidential debate,
a local reporter asked Quayle if he
would model his vice presidency after any other.
"I don 't know if there's one that
comes to mind , except ...," he began.
He paused and looked at an aide.
"Yes, I think lhat one I'd like to pattern myself after is George Bush."
And while Quay le now commands
a more positive response from crowds
of supporters, he often seems to have
difficulty connecting with individuals. As he walks along a line of supporters, Quayle will shake hands with

one person without looking at them,
his eyes focused instead down the
line.
The most pronounced shift in
Quayle's behavior in the days since
he declared his independence has been
his courting of the national news
media. Asked whether that was the
only change, Quayle said the other
day, "That's a good part of it."
The limited metamorphosis began
with Quayle's declaration that he was
"Dr. Spin,"aname implying thathe is
controlling the campaign and delivering the daily message, or "spin ," as it
is known.
He also has moved far from his
previous habit of avoiding the traveling press. Now he stops at every
camera that turns its lens to him , and
each night ventures back to the press
cabin of his plane to chat.
Quayle vociferously denies that the
change in style was engineered for
him , insisting that he took steps to
free himself after becoming angered
atcritical post-debate remarksby Bush
campaign aides.
His new, more
open tactics promote "a lot of handwringing" at Bush campaign head-

quarters, he said, sounding quite
"They 've accepted that,"
pleased.
he said, adopting the tone of an outsider, "and I think they are hoping for
the best."

Be aware of consequences

by Melissa M cnapace
Fetures Editor.
Oct. 16- 21 is National Collegiate
Alcohol Awareness Week. It 's
impossible not to be "aware"ofalcohol
at Bloomburg University, or any
campus. Unfortunately wcdon 'tsccm
lo be as aware of it 's consequences.
Drinking lo excess is fri ghteningly
common. Ofte n , it 's amazing in its
sheer stupidity. Il brings lo mind Bill
Cosby 's routine on getting drunk ,

something to the effect that , I work
hard all week, I deserve to drink myself
into oblivion and vomit violently for
three hours."
I'm certainly not condemning
drinking in moderation or an
occasional lapse of judgment , and
that's not what National Colleg iate
Alcohol Week it aimed at either. It 's
aimed development of intelligent and
mature control of our drinking.
It 's easy to believe that we're safe in

Startfocusing on
the real issues

To the Editor
Now that the last month ofthe 1988
presidential campaign has begun , let 's
stop all of the nil-p icking and find out
who should lead this nation.
First of all , since the apparent
movement in tlie world is toward s
closer global interaction between
nations , the overl ying criteria for a
leader must be foreign affairs
cxperienceandabcliefin LaisseFaire,
free market , consumer lead , global
economics.
Secondl y, as a democrati c nationstate , tlie United States was built on
the belief that the federal government
was limited in its role and the state
government was in control. Not the
other way around! That is Socialism!
Thirdl y, a leader must represent the
electorate who choose him or her. As
the United Slates battles with its drug
problems , iLs education problems , and
it_ s financial matter s , wc need a leader
who cares about these problems as we
Ao.
With these criteria in mind , open

your eyes and take a look at lite
candidates. George Bush is written all
over it.
Don 't blind yourself witli Dukakis
liberalism. The United States is a
capitalistic democracy meant to take
up and down turns in economic
expansion and retraction.
George Bush is well aware of this.
Bush is working towards the global
free market lhat will bring tlie United
States back into the creditor that we
once were , but we must pay the price
for a short time.
He is also well aware of the arms
race and the need to work with the rest
of the world to stop it.
And finally, Bush knows exactly
what strong state government and a
cooperative Congress can do for
education , anti-drug efforts , and the
deficit.
The liberal democrats have a view
far from the one that America is looking
for now.
John Blowers

a collegiate cocoon , but we re not as
invulnerable as we'd like to believe.
Almost all of us have been affected by
alcohol in some way, whether tlie death
of someone you love because of drunk
driving, alcoholism , a lost weekend or
that embarrassing incident at the party
you would rather not remember.
Maybe wc can use National
Collegiate Alcohol Awareness Week
to become more aware of our
responsibilities.

greater the amount of personal
freedom , the greater the amount of
responsibility not to abuse it.
It is all loo easy to seize the freedoms
wc take for granted and ignore the
responsibilities that are inherent to
ihem.
This may be at the heart of the
problems' that beset' our society. We
fail to take responsibility for our
actions. Why protect our freedoms
and our country by serving in the
military? Let some other bozo do it.
The drunk is no longer a drunk or a
lush. No, that would be too crude. He
is now an alcoholic with a sickness; a
disease not a vice. He has no choice
but to drink , for God's sake. Being an

an "alternate lifestyle"that arc anxious
to teach in our schools.
Murderers and other criminals don't
do their thing because they want to, or
because they freely choose to do it.
They do it because society has not
been fai r to them and they arc forced
into a life of crime.
And tlie nerve of those elitist
conservatives refusing to believe lhat
more govenment is the answer.
Let us be grateful that the Bible has
been removed from our public schools,
lest our children learn moral code that
demands individual responsibility for
individual actions.
' Morality? Judco-Christian ethics?
How quaint. Why, it 's downri ght

simply become a society of
convenience? Most importantly, let us
never take a "hard line" with the
worker's Paradise, the Soviet Union.
After all , their paranoid rhetoric and
aggressive defense and foreign policies
are really defensive in nature,reactions
to our imperialistic behavior. The
United Slates is the real threat to world
peace. Shame on all those fools , like
myself, to whom God and country are
more than just words. Patriotism and
violent anti-communism are outdated,
orhaven 'tyou talked toaliberal lately?
Freedom becomes licence without
responsibility,but thank the Lord that
we live in a greatnalion , despite all our
faults and troubles, in which freedom
is so natural that it can be taken for
granted. It is worth fighting for.

They showed concern , but not enough
to miss General Hospital.
I had to be on crutches for the
remainder of the semester. To make
matters worse, there was snow on the
ground at the time. Wilh the exception
of close friends , rarely did anybody go
out of his or her way to hold a door
open for me. Nor did anyone ever
offer to help with my books, my lunch
tray, etc.

For those of you who never had an
injury, don 't worry. The students at
BU don 't discriminate. They can be
rude to everyone, not just those on
crutches or in wheelchairs.
The idea of a class about respect is
the best idea I' ve cvcr heard of. Instead
of sitting in a class learning about
rocks, some students at BU should be
learning about common courtesy.

To the Editor
I also had an experience on crutches
and it was anything but pleasant. Two
semesters ago I fell down the stairs in
my dorm and tore ligaments in my
ankle. While laying there at lhe botto m
of the stairs, laundry thrown every

you okay?" they asked in passing.

Parental leave becomes a priority
BOSTON — And now we return
once again , dear readers , to the Perils
of Pauline and Parental Leave.
When v. e first met Pauline , you may
recall , she had just g iven birth . Pauline
was losing sleep not onl y due to her
new born child but also to her newborn
anxiety. She was afraid of losing her
job.
The opening chapter ended with
Pauline , stretch marks and all, hanging
over the cliff. Above all, was an
emp loyer , twirling a moustache,
demanding that she choose; Your
Motherhood or Your Livelihood.
Pauline 's plig ht did not go
unnoticed. After many years, people
set out to rescue her. They proposed a
Famil y and Medical Leave bill that
would , in its compromise form , require
employers of more than 50 people to
offer at least 10 weeks unpaid , jobprotected leave when workers have
newborn , newly-adopted , or sick
children.
This wasn t any great deliverance.
Pauline 's country is the only industrial
nation , aside from South Africa , wilh
no family leave policy.
Even the arch-economic rival,Japan ,
gives 12 weeksofleave wilh 60 percent

pay to its female workers.
Moreover , the bill was less than
what 11 states and many large
American companies already offer.
But at least it promised a floor , or
ladder , under Pauline 's dangling toes.
Pauline 's melodrama ran in almost
every newspaper and congressional
hearing room. Sometimes sheappeared
as a couple with asickchild. Sometimes
as a couple with an adopted child.
Sometimes as single mother. Indeed,
as we remember fro m the chapter on
Pauline and thePollsters, an astounding
79percentof the population supported
family medical leave.
Meanwhile, the villian ofthis piece,
the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, was
working mightil y to tie the bill down
to the track. Thebusiness lobby uttered
dire predictions about the economic
effects of family leave. The very same
predictions they offered when
confronted wilh child labor laws,
occupational safety laws , and
pregnancy discrimination laws.
Unlike this lobby, Pauline's family,
alas, did not have a PAC. She couldn 't
threaten politicians with withholding
campaign contributions.
What she did have was a political

constituency. During 1988 every
candidate talked about the American
family. It was widely believed that the
bare minimum any politician could do
and still have credibility with American
families was to vote for this modest
parental lcav£.
"Thank God, where ever she is, for
elections," said Pauline 's pal, Judy
Lichtman of the Woman 's Legal
Defense Fund.
But this is melodrama after all.
Briefly, in the waning days of the
100th Congress, parental leave was
packaged with the child care bill and a
child pornography bill. With these two
companions, and with the pressure of
a political campaign , it looked like the
perils mi ght be over.
Then Pauline was done in. At the
final moment, there weren't enough
senators willing to close off argument
and bring the bill up for a vote.
Goodbye, parental leave. Back to cliffhanging.
What is the future for Pauline 's
family? Ronald Ragean, George Bush
and Dan Quayle are all against family
medical leave. A handful of Senate
votes could have turned this around.
American families got nothing out of

this Congress and if they didn 't get it
in an election year, when can they? If
they can 't get a bill that won 't cost the
government a nickel , what can ihcy
gel?
Politicians know that voters care
about medical leave and child care.
But even in the year of the family,
many assume they don 't care enough
to make it a number one issue at the
ballot box. Until now, they have been
right.
Those of us who have watched this
melodrama unfold with all its
frustrating twists and turns know that
if anything is going to change for
families, working parents will have to
become lobby ists and choose
legislators who give their interests
priority.
We don 't need television specials to
tell us about the crisis in the American
famil y. Pauline 's perils are also her
family 's. Too many parents have
privatized ihcirproblcms. Butparental
leave, like child care, is a place where
self-interest and public interest
dovetail.
It would be swell to end this
melodrama before Pauline becomes a
grandmother.

Amnesty tour ends on good note

by James F. Smith

L.A. Times-Washington Post Service

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina - As a
shooting star tumbledthrough thcnigh t
sky, Amnesty International ended its
35,000-mile odysscy in which some
of the world' s best rock musicians
served as troubadours for human rights.
Bruce Springsteen reminded the
70,000 dancing, waving fans of the
tour's goal: "A world without leaders
who govern with the blood of their
people on their hands."
The 20th and final concert of the
six-week "Human Rights Now!" tour
combined the virtuosity of Springsteen,
Sting, Peter Gabriel , Tracy Chapman
and Youssou N'Dour of Senegal with
odes to the missing, the tortured and
the persecuted in Argentina, Chile and
South Africa.
The finale in River Plate Stadium
Saturday night brought the total audience to more than 1 million for the
entire tour,aimed at raising consciousness abouthuman rights abuses around
the world and the 40lh anniversary of
the Universal Declaration of Human
Rights.
"Let's work for a world without
oppression,"Springsteen declared. "A
world without Somozas, without Pinochets," referring to the late President Anastasio Somoza of Nicaragua
and Gen. Augusto Pinochet of Chile.
The penultimate concert Friday in
Mendoza, near the Argentina-Chile
border, became a celebration of Pinochet's defeat in a plebiscite Oct. 5.
Thousands of Chileans attended , and

two Chilean bands, reccntfy returned
from exile, joined the international
stars on stage.
In Buenos Aires, the final concert
was in part a celebration of Argentina's return to democracy in 1983 and
the restoration of political rights since
then. Organizers said lhat they wanted
the tour to end here because Argentina
was an example for the rest of the
continent.
But the banners strung around the
stadium reminded the crowd that
concerns persist in Argentina , especially over what amounts to an amnesty for all but a handful of senior
officers accused of persistent human
rights offenses during the military
government of 1976-1983.
"No to Impunity ," one banner declared. Another read: "Judgment and
punishment for all those who are culpable."
Amnesty International is a private,
non-profi t organization that has criticized human rights abuses in EastBloc nations as well as nations with
rightist military governments.
For die crowd here, Sting was the
prime attraction. No newcomer to Latin
American issues, the English singer
speaks Spanish and his ballad , "They
Dance Alone,"honors the widows and
mothers in Chile and Argentina who
continue to seek the truth about the
"disappearances"of their husbands and
sons. The slate is accused of killing
them.
During his set, Sting called on stage
two dozen mothers and grandmothers

who wore white kerchiefs that have
becomesymbols of their search for the
"disappeared ," with the pictures of
their missing ones pinned to their
blouses. SlingandPeterGabrieldanced
with the mothers, while the audience
held up candles and lighters. In many
a concert-with-a-themc, either the music or the message seems appended as
an afterthought. But the finale to the
"Human Rights Now!" tour was an
exception. After concerts in 20 cities
in 15 countries, the five principal acts
had honed their performances. They
evolvcdduets and group numbers, such
as Bob Dylan 's "Chimes of Freedom."
For nearly eight hours , the crowd
responded ecstatically to Gabriel' s
rousing tribute to SteveBiko.lheSouth
African black consciousness leader
who died in police custody in 1977; to
Tracy Chapman 's ballad for imprisoned South African leader Nelson
Mandela , "Freedom Now."
The organizers distributed 1.2 million copies of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights during the tour ,
which began in London and included
shows in 15 countries on five continents.
The musicians spoke to 12,000
journalists along the way in endless
news conferences and interviews on
human rights problems, as well as
exhorting their fans fro m the stage.
"The future is in your hands," said
Gabriel , after singing his song in
honor of Biko. "Let's dream of a world
in which all men , women and children
have their rights protected."

Controversial organization under criminal
investigation after fatal beating of child

by Sheryl Stolberg

LA. Times- Washington Post Service

LOS ANGELES-ALos Angclcsgroup
that set up camp in rural Oregon ostensibly to help youths from the
Watts inner-city area through what it
called "toughness training" - became
the target of a criminal investigation
this weekend when authorities arrested
six of its members in the fatal beating
of their leader's daughter and took
custody of 53 children under the
group's care.
The children , aged 3 month s to 16
years, are all from the Los Angeles
area and were found living in a fourbedroom farmhouse in Sandy, Ore.,
about 25 miles east of Portland. Some
had "old injuries" that indicated possible physical abuse, officials said.
The investigation into the Ecclesia
Athletic Association began Friday
morning with the death of 8-year-old
Dayna Lorea Broussard. Her father,
Eldridge Broussard Jr., founded Ecclesia as an outgrowth of the Walts
Christian Center, which he began a
decade ago to address the problems of
the inner city. Last year, Broussard
moved Ecclesia to Oregon, where he
had played college basketball. The
group operated from two residencestheSandy farmhouse,on 18 acres, and
another home on seven acres in nearby

Clackamas.
The group sparked controversy in
both Oregon neighborhoods , where
residents were disturbed by thegroup 's
secrecy, by its militarism-including
silent drills and lineups by hcight-and
by what they viewed as cultlike practices, such as the requirements that
members take a "vow of poverty" and
"relinquish even the rights of decision-making" to Broussard.
"We had this gut feeling that we
were dealing wilh a cult, if you will,
and that some day this was going to
happen ."said Jack Westfall of Clackamas.
"Il docs not come particularly as a
surprise, said Gaylc Gow of Sandy,
who, along with Westfall and others,
complained repeatedly to authorities
about Ecclesia. "They were a group
lhat appeared to be destined to selfdestruct."
She was upset that no agency had
intervened sooner.
"It's unfortunate, but it seems to me
that this is just the result of a parade of
bureaucratic failures ," Gow said.
"They really let those children down."
However, Bart Wilson , manager of
the Clackamas County branch of the
Oregon Children 's Services Division ,
said he knew of no complaintsthat the
Ecclesia group was abusing children.

"There was great concern up here in
the community and there's a whole lot
of polarized emotions," he said, but "if
those complaints and assertions don 't
reach a level where there is indication
of severe risk to children , then we're
not at liberty to go knocking on anybody 's door because a neighbor may
find a lifestyle or practices disagreeable."
It was Ecclesia members themsel ves
who sparked this weekend's investigation when , at 12:17 a.m. Friday,
four of them brough t Dayna Broussard's bruised body to a Clackamas
County fire station in the rural Happy
Valley area, not far from Sandy.
The girl's parents were in Los
Angeles at the time and were reportedly on their way to Oregon Saturday.
The child , who was dead on arrival
at the fire station , had been beaten on
her head , chest and extremities and
diedof "multiple blunt-force injuries,"
state Medical Examiner Larry V.
Lewman later told reporters.
Four members were immediately
arrested by county sheriffs. As part of
the homicide investigation, sheriff's
deputies visited thegroup's farmhouse
in Sandy, where they found the 53
children living under the supervision
of three adults, whom authorities did
not name.

Game Knobs & Joysticks

Video game helps vent

by Douglas Rapson
Staff Writer
The Bloomsburg University games
room offers many different form s of
entertainment. Per those who enjoy
games involving spherical objects
being pushed and pumped into various
holes and pockets, there is pinball and
pool .
These arc valid options to those who
wish to pursue them. 1 lowevcr. I intend to restrict myself to those forms
of entertainment with video screens.
My first coin-stealing , inind-pouad. ing, nerve-racking victim is The Main
Event.
This game , which is nestled midway
along the back wall is based on a form
of entertainment that is either loved or

despised: Professional Wrestling.
Those who follow and enjoy the
World Wrestling Federation will ,
most likel y, enjoy The Main Event a
grea t deal. Where else can one become a WWF scriptwriter for about
one dollar ?
The game , which features WWF
characters similar to Hulk Hogan ,
Rick y Steamboat , and Andre the
Giant , pits two tag team s against each
oilier. These, teams can be played by
one to four players. The most desirable combination lhat I have played is
two players on the same team against
the machine. This variation allows for
the greatest element in tag team wrestling : The Double Team.
The came is set up with three basic

Original ' Star Trek '
frustrations pilot to air for first
time this Thursday

controllers. There is the joystick
which moves your wrestler around the
ring (even up on to lire turnbucklcs.)
The action button , a large flashing
button , allows you to perform moves,
legal and otherwise, on your opponent. Lastly, there is the tag butto n .
This button serves a dual purpose.
First of all , it allows you to switch wilh
your partner. Secondly, used in conjunction witli the action button it allows you to perform all of the specialty maneuvers in wrestling (the
drop kick , brain buste r, and piledriver).
Each player can put in as many quarters as he likes during the course ofthe
game. If you know you plan on spending a dollar , however, put all four

quarters ii al one time. This will give
you more points than putting them in
one at a time. By putting in multiple
coins it also avoids the awkward digging for coins while the referee is
laying the count on you!
The game can get hot and heavy, as
I have experienced first-hand. As in
the real tiling , a wrestler can enter illegall y and beat on his opponent until
the rcf sends tlie illegal wrestler back
to his corner.
The game is hi ghl y addictive and
has been known to g ive litis video
wrestler more than a few blisters on
his fingers. All in all , The Main Event
is a great way to become Hulk Hogan
for a while and also vent some frustrations.

You have to fly through a meteor
shower of hype to gel there, but the
nucleus of the remarkable Star Trek
universe can nonetheless be found
intact in a rare view ing Thursday night
of "The Cage," theori ginal , 1965 pilot
episode for television 's long and prosperous voyage into humankind' s future.
Never aired intact and actuall y
turned down by NBC,"The Cage"can
be seen as ori ginally intended in a twohour „ '„r7Ve£ special in syndication.
And you do not have to be a "Trckkie,"
one ofthe series' devoted fans, to find
it thoroughly fascinating.
The show includes such oddities as
a smiling, fairl y emotional Mr. Spock
(Leonard Nimoy), the late Jeffrey
Hunter and not William Shatncr as the
captain of the starshi p Enterprise, and
the actress who would later play
Nurse Chapel , Majcl Barrett , as die
ship 's "No. 1," or executive officer.
Furdicr , Scotly, Bones, Uhura , Sulu
and Chckov arc nowhere to be seen.

But the fundamental elements of
StarTrek are all here: a hopeful vision
of the future that nonetheless portrays
humans as primitive and violent, and
the conviction that there are other life
forms out there with their own unique
strengths and weaknesses.
Creator Gene Roddcnbcrry, Shatncr , Nimoy and others of the Star Trek
family arc seen in interview clips
Hanking the airing of "The Cage,"and
actor Patrick Stewart , who portrays
Capt. Piccard in die syndicated Sta r
Trek: The Next Generation hosts the
special.
While some of this supporting material is of interest , too much is he
avily promotional for lhe syndicated
scries and next summer 's promised
Star Trek V movie.
Fans may also wish for a little more
exposition of the circumstances
surrounding Star Trek' s original
bumpy voyage to network acceptance.
Still , the show docs acknowledge
that "The Cage" was rejected by NBC
as being "too cerebral."
Yet the rejection was not total, for
NBC authorized Roddcnbcrry, whose
orig inal conception was to produce "a
'Wagon Train' to the stars," to proceed with a second pilot that would
have more "bare knuckles" action.
And even moderately familiar
viewers will recognize that much of
The Cage'' was seen during the series'
first season (1966-67) as the heart of a
two-part episode tided "The Menagerie/]
"The fundamental aspects of
Star Trek are all here: a hopeful
vision of the future... and the
conviction that there are other
life forms out there with
their own unique strengths and
weaknesses".
The pilot material was woven as
fiashbacks into a story in which
Spock, now science officer to Shatner's James Tiberius Kirk, commandeers the Enterprise to take his form er
commander, the crippled Capt. Chris-*
topher Pike, back to a mysterious
planet where the Enterprise once had a
close encounter with aliens.
Yet it is obvious from seeing the
whole episode that "The Cage" was a
learning experience for Roddcnberry
and crew, used to advantage in the
subsequent development of Star
Trek..
The characters of "No. 1" and
Spock, for instance, would be merged
into one: the familiar , ultra-logical
Vulcan science officer. The ship's
doctor-captain 's confidant character
of "Bones," first played by John Hoy t,
would be kept but made stronger with
DeForest Kelley, and his nurse would
be played by Barrett (who later would
marry Roddcnberry in real life).
Further, additional distinctive players, Scotty, Uhura , Chekhov and Sulu
(respectively, James Doohan , Nichelle Nichols, Wal ter Koeni g and
George Takci), would be added to
project mankind' s victory over racial,
national and sexual prejudices.
Yet the fairl y heretical notion that
we have some cri ppling wcaknessess,
and that other beings might exist with
far greater, albeit flawed, capabilities,
is powerfully present in this first outing.
"A curious species. They have fantasies they even hide from themselves." reflects one of the Talosian
kidnappers of Capt. Pike, voicing an
insightful theme of many "Star Trek"
plots to come. Indeed , the aliens seeking to repopulate their planet decimated by war finall y reject humans as
"too violent and dangerous a species
for our needs."
Roddenberry 's creadve production
techniques are on subtle display in lhe
casting of the bi g-brained Talosians.
Although this special does not disclose this fact, Allan Asherman 's
book "The Star Trek Compendium"
discloses that the ostensibl y male aliens were all played by female actors to
better project their difference from the
violent humans.
Even in this relatively crude pilot, as
Doohan suggests in an interview
about the success of the "Star Trek"
philosophy, "Hey, it 's got some kind
of magic to il."

Enthusiasts celebrate 25th anniversary of Porsche 911

by David M. Marra
Staff Writer
Editor's note: This is the first
part of a three-part series
When the original Porsche 911
was unveiled during the 1963
Frankfurt Auto Show in Germany,
few people could have imagined that
this car would still be available in
1988, 25 years later. Yet die hot
little sports car fro m Slultgart is
proudly celebrating it's Silver
Anniversary this year.
Throughout the 911's unique history, it has undergone many
changes. While the present body
slyle is virtually the same as the
sixties model , practically cvcryUiing
else has undergone drastic, performance-enhancing alterations.
The Porsche 911 of today proves
to be one of ihe fastest, readilyavailable sports cars in the world.
Manufactured in tliree different body
configurations—Coupe, Targa (removable roof panel), and Cabriolet
(convertible)—die 911 is one of the
most coveted possessions of many
car enthusiasts.

Moonstruck '
a shining
comedy

by Melissa Menapace
Features Editor
If Woody Allen was Italian, he
might make something like Moonstruck. It's hilarious in a sharp, sweet
way. It's also something rare, a comedy with real meat on it.
Under "bella luna" Iwo very Italian
families in Brooklyn illuminate the
nature of life and love. The relationships and communication (or lack of)
between them are facinating and portrayed so realisticaly that the characterizations hold up even when bizzare
things happen.
Lorreta (Cher) becomes engaged to
Johnny, a sweet, dumpy, dull man she
doesn't love. On the night of their engagement he runs off to Italy to be
with his ailing mother.
He leaves instructions forLoretta to
invite his estranged brother, Johnny,
to the wedding. When she meets
Johnny, her life gets complicated and
things start to move fast.
Not a second of Moonstruck is
boring. If you turn away for a second
you miss volumes communicated in a
look or a single sentence.
If you ever could have agreed with
Johnny and Loretta that "Love isn 't
nice. We're not here to be happy.
We're here to fall in love with the
wrong people and break our hearts;"
This movie will strike a chord and
you 'll love the ending.
In this, Moonstruck is very remeniscant of Woody Allen at his best,
just a little less neurotic and with a
happier ending.
Cher and Olymp ia Dukakis earned
their Oscars. Cher is stunning, the
movie revolves around her. She was
probably the best possiable actress to
portray Lorrcta 's wise mouth ,
strength and "bad luck." Dukakis, as
Lorreta's mother and a cheated wife is
dignified and funny.

Nobody shrinks a man-sized ballpark like Jose Canseco. He's 24 years
old, 6-3 and 210, and he can lay every
inch and pound into a pitch. When he
matures and fills out, this kid is going
to be some kinda hitter.
His grand-slam screamer turnedout
to be the runner-up in the evening 's
Most Incredible Home Run contest.
The grand prize went to Kirk Gibson ,
who hit a 2-run job over right fielder
Canseco's head in the bottom of the
ninth , also with two out.
Gibson 's stroke turned the Bashers
into the Bashccs.
"Thai 's why power hitters are so
well-paid ," Canseco said as he wor
ked on a burrito in the postgame clubhouse. "They can put the game away
for yot 1 . People say power hitters are
overpaid , overrated . That 's bull.
That 's the man you want up there,
that 's the man who makes the big
bucks."
Canseco wasn't surprised when
Gibson connected , even though Gibson seemed as steady at the plate as
a rookie sailor walking the deck during his first storm.
The problem about Gibson ,"
Canseco said , "is he adapts well. He
can have one bad swing, he corrects
quickly. I like him a lot. I've talked
to him. He's very positive, very enthusiastic. He's a lot like me, he's got
power, speed, a strong arm .

"When the money s out there and
the marbles are on the table, he 's the
man you want out there. It (the
pitch) was a slider that caug ht the
plate. He's an aggressive hitter jus t
like I am , he's not going to take a
ball in the strike zone.
"I knew it was gone. I took one
step and just watched.I know what
he can do. In '86 1saw him hit two
home runs off Joaquin Andujar in
Oakland, both into the top deck,just
incredible. I gotta respect anyone
who can hit 2 balls 500 feet. I have
to. On top of that, he can run. Amazing."
Canscco'sblastwasamazing. too.
It was one of th; lowest, hardest
homers you 'll see, clearing the fence
like a comet, by about 3 feet.
Did Canseco know it would carry
the fence?
"Did you see how hard I hit it?"
Canseco replied , incredulously. " 1
hit it extremely hard."
As hard as he can hit a ball?
"Probably not, but hard enough,"
he said.
This one was for Jose's father.
"My dad was here today, Canseco
said. "Of all the power hitters we've
got in Oakland , I' m the only one
who 's never hit a grand-slam. My
father 's always telling me, 'When
you gonna hit one? When you gonna
hit one? ' 'Sure, Dad , I'll hit one to-

night. '
"When I hit it , the first thing that
went through my mind was, 'Grand
slam , national TV, my father 's here to
sec it, I'm covered .'"
Canseco is such an amazing hitter , a
.300 hitter wilh one of the great power
swings in history, that some think of
him as the Natural .
Others, like the baseball writer who
went on national TV and accused
Canseco of training on steroids, see
him as an unnatural.
When he took
his position in right field after the grand
slam , the subject of steroids was raised

has ever been played.
He has pitched 19 2-3 consecutive
scoreless innings, going back to th e
National League playoffs , and his two
doubles and a single in three at-bais
were the fi rst three-hit game by a
Scries pitcher since Nehf in 1924.
"This is the best stuff I' ve taken
intoaprcssurcgame," Hcrshiser said,
not specifying whether he meant his
pitchingstuff or his hilling stuff. "This
was the best stuff in my last three big
starts."
Not only does Orel throw a thrcehiltcr, but he docsn 't even use his "A"
¦
materialr7-" -» • -"•
"I really didn 't want to expose everything," Hershiser said. "You gotta
have some repertoire left against this
outstanding team."
"I went with my best stuff early,
but after we got ahead I threw a f ew
more change-ups , other things.
Oakland won 'tknow what to look for
in Game 5."
I think Orel meant that more modestly than it sounded, but you can al
most hear the moaning over that announcement up in the City by the Cily
by the Bay. Don Baylor, the A's
speaker of the house, who struck out
as a pinch hitler Sunday, might want
to take a cut at that Orel pitch.
Dodger catcher Mike Scioscia, told
that Hcrshiser said he started sav ing
his best stuff once the Dodgers got a
lead, said: "Bull. He didn 't go away
from his best stuff. Orel can do a lot of
things."
Like run the bases. He sprinted

from first to third on a single in th e
third inning, and ran out his two
doubles. Isn 't that a lot of running
for a pitcher?
"He's in tremendous shape," Scioscia said. "If I was doing that much
on the bases, it might be a problem ."
Don 't worry about Orel. He has
all the answers. Has 'em written on
a cheat sheet, in fact.
On his way to the mound at the
start of the game he stopped by home
plate, pulled a piece of paper out of
his back pocket and showed it to
home plate umpire Durwood Merrill.
It was a scouting report, written
by Orel and sealed in plastic. It's
bad enough the man preps for the
game by referencing his personal
computer, but how can you expect
to'get more than three singles off a
pitcher who has the answers before
the exam?
"It was my little cheat sheet,' Hershiser said. "I showed it to th e umpires because I didn 't want 'em to
think I'm cheating out there when I
pull something out of my pocket."
There was no pine tar on the cheat
sheet, so the umpires gave Orel the
OK.
Hershiser, as it turns out, was in
such command that he only used the
cheat sheet two or three times. For
all the trouble he had with the A's,
he could've taken a Masked Marvel
comic book out to the mound.
And Orel didn 't once feel the need
to get on his cellular dugout phon e
and call his astrologist or guru.

By the fourth inning, when Hcrshiser
struck out the side, finishing the job by
fanning Jose Canseco, it was becoming
clear that the A' s, like the entire National League before litem , were falling
victim to an Orel Hex.
Twice Dave Parker led off an inning
wilh a single and twice he became the
front man on a double play . The other
Dodgers, as if sensing the greatness
emanating from the mound , responded
wilh their best defensive effort of tlie
post season , especially from Steve Sax
on double-play pivot , and helped the
Dodgers score five runs in the third
="" ".
inning.
The only question now is how many
more times Hershiscr can pitch in this
series. There's no game Monday and
he'll probabl y take Game 3 and 4 off ,
then go Thursday in Oakland.
How about a Game 7, if necessary?
"Yeah, I think he could do lhat,"
Scioscia said. "He's pitched on two
days rest before. "
Was Orel tiring at all , even a tccnie
bit , at the end of Sunday 's gam e?
"No,"Scioscia said, shaking his head
vigorously.
In fact, Hershiscr indicated that his
biggest problem mig ht come if h e gets
too much rest between starts.
"Your mechanics can get out of
whack of you 're too strong," he said ,
"you can take that power in a bad direction."
He makes the game look and sound
easy, but Hcrshiser insisted he was
nervous at the beginning.
"That's definitely the most pressure
I've felt in a long, long time, " he said.

LA. Times- Washington Post Service

..LOS ANGELES - When you 're
peering over the center field fence at
Dodger Stadium, home plate is so
very, very far away that Jose Canseco,
digging into the batter 's box , looks
human.
His swing tells you different. In
batting practice before Saturday 's
World Scries opener, Canseco drove
two balls deep, deep into the left field
bleachers, the balls almost plunking
down on the metal roof and bouncing
out of the stadium.
I ve been here four years and I've
never seen anyone hit a ball that far ,"
said stadium usher Dave Green."Mike
Marshall can hit the front row of the
blue seats (halfway up the bleachers) ,
but Canseco's must have been 10
rows up. Nobod y hits 'cm up there."
Nice exhibition , but what can Jose
do when the heat's on, when his team
is down , 2-0, and he comes to the
plate with bases loaded , two out ,
second inning?
What he can do is crunch a 1-and0 slider from Tim Belcher on a froze n
line, like a 2-iron shot, directl y over
the center field fence.
The ball caromed off an NBC
camera and rolled between the two
huge flagpoles.
Oakland's Bashers had the lead. 4-

by hecklers in the right field stands.
"They were yelling, 'Steroids,'
and 'Just say no,'" Canseco said with
a smile. "Maybe tomorrow they'll
think of something original."
The
stadium security guard who picked
up the grand-slam ball was ushered
inio the clubhouse and presented the
ball to Canseco.
"I'm gonna give this to my dad so
he'll shut up," Canseco said.
If it doesn 't sound like Jose was
upset over the jarring turn of events
that turned his glorious blast into a

game footnote and put his team down,
1-0, in the Series, that's because he
wasn 't.
"I don 't think anyone here's devastated," Canseco said. "We have to
lose a game here and there. We're not
a mechanical team that's gonna wfn
every single game."
And you get the feeling that if Jose
Canseco has to lose a big ballgame,
he'd prefer doing so in a fashion he
deeply understands and respects.

"You 've got the hopes and dreams of
all the fans ,andyour teammates. Ijust
realized how to deal with the energy
level , it was a whole lotta fun toni ght."
Hcrshiser worked harder after the
game than during. He met wilh group
s of reporters in several clubhouse locations , then went back on the field to
work his way down a line of television crews waiting for interviews.
He probably slopped on his way
home from the Stadium at a Jack-in-

the -Box and explained to Jack how
he worked Canseco.
It was thekind of performance worth
talking about.
"I've never seen anything like it,"
Mike Marshall said. "He's gone into
the realm of Wayne Gretzky and
Michael Jordan. He's like that."
He's like Sandy Koufax , who once
pitched a routine 15-strikeoul shutout
for the Dodgers, then disappeared
from the clubhouse.

Los Angeles Dodgers take two game lead in World Series
by Scott Ostler

LA. Times-Washington Post Service

LOS ANGELES - Now, the
.Oakland A's really want the New
York Mets.
They want out of this bad dream ,
badly. They want to climb out of thi s
rabbit hole, back out of the looking
glass, and back to reality.
Down 2-0 in the World Series, the
A's want no part of the Los Angeles
Dodgers, especially the Orel Hcrshiscr part.
Sunday the A's had their bats stuffed
back in their rack by Hcrshiser, a
shrunken-chested guy who used a "
computer and a cheat-sheet, barely
broke a sweat, pushed Art Nehf aside
in the record book,and in the postgame
interview sessions not only used the
word "repertoire," but pronounced it
correctly.
I was waiting for Hershiscr to ask
foraPerrierandacroissantwith Brie.
Hershiser, a pretty good pitching
hitter,allowed three hits and collected
three hits himself. That's the ideal yin
and yang, a well-balanced night.
Two of Hershiser's hits were
doubles. He has as many extra-base
hits as the Oakland Bashers have in
the entire Series.
Want an even more complete night?
OK, Hershiser's parents threw out the
ceremonial first pitch , in this case
pitches. They were strikes. Sinkers,
low and away.
Bulldog Hershiser, up-pedigreed
Sunday night to Pit Bull , is playing

From the Husky tennis ends
Cheap with victory at ESU
Seats
Damn , what a
weekend

by Scan Ryan
Sports Editor
Thought litis weekend turn out to
be a lackluster socially, I was fortunate enough to witness the best
football game and the best baseball
game I have seen all semester.
It all started when I watched the
college football game between the
#1 Hurricanes of Miami , and the
Fightin Irish' of Noire Dame,
ranked 114 in the nation.
The Fi ghtin ' Irish happen to be
may favorite Divison I football
team , and with superb quarterback
Steve Walsh off the Hurricanes
throwing passes on every play, I
expected a barnburner , and I was
not dissapoinlcd.
The first half seemed to be dominated by Lhe Fig htin ' Irish as they
were leading 21-7 witli two minutes left in the half , but the Hurri canes bounced back and scored two
quick touchdowns to end the first
halfwit! -.:* 21-21 tic.
The second half proved to be just
as exciting, and Lhe game came
down to 31-24 lead for ilic Irish ,
with time running out. Tlie Hurricanes then scored a touchdown lo
bring the game lo 31 -30 wilh 48
seconds left.
Now what should Hurricane
Coacli Jimmy Johnson do? Docs lie
go for the win wilh a two-point
conversion and risk a regular season undefeated record that has
lasted since 1985, or should he kick
the extra point and Lake the tic and
keep lho #1 ranking?
Since it was the best game I' ve
seen all semester you know he went
for the win. So here I am , biting my
nails down to the skin , my heartbeat
must have risen to five hundred
bcaLs a minute , and Steve Walsh
steps back to pass, and he lofts in
the end zone , only lo be deflected
by the Noire Dame secondary.
So the Fighti n ' Irish went on to
win the game, and we must give a
lotof credit to Hurricane Coach Jim
Johnson for going for it in such a
crucial game.
Next is baseball. First of all ,
I' ve seen so many highlights , so
many movies lhat deal wilh lhat
ever so famous situation: down by
a run , with 2 ouls in the bottom of
the ninth , and a 3-2 count , and some
schmoc steps up and hits a homerun. But I' ve never seen one in a
game. The chances of it happening
are the same as Morton Downey
having real teeth I fi gured , none to
none.
But was I ever so wrong.
The Los Angeles Dodgers and
the Oakland A's squared offin their
first game of the World Series/and
it turned oul lo be quite a thriller.
The Dodgers started off with a tworun homer by firs t baseman Mike
Thatcher in die 1st inning. Then in
the second inning, I . witnessed
Oakland' s ri ght fielder , Jose
Canscnco ri p a grand slam into
dead center field to put them ahead
4-2.
The Dodgers picked up another
run later in the game lo close the
gap to 3-2 as we came to tlie ninth.
Now with 2 ouls and an 0-2 count
on Dodger's Kirk Gibson and the
American League 's best relivcr on
the mound Dennis Eckerly, most
people were pulling this on win the
history books for the Oakland A's.
But wouldn 't you know it , the
count became 3-2.
At this point , I would bet the
house that this game was slill over.
But Kirk Gibson changed history
for me and put me in a coma, when
he belted a two-run blast to win the
game for the Dodgers. That 's right
I finally saw tlie unbelievable. My
life now had meaning.
Sometimes it justpa ys to slay out

Defense dominates game as
Bloom beats Cheyney 3-0
by Dave Sauter
Staff Writer
In a closely fought defensive battle,
Bloomsburg University defeated
Cheyney University, 3-0, this past
Saturday afternoon.
It was Homecoming Weekend for
Cheyney, and the Wolves were
pumped up for the game as tlie team
came very close to pulling a major
upset, and while Cheyney was playing
lough , the Huskies, to put it bluntl y,
were very flat. The usual crispness in
the Husky offense was just not there.
Starling quarterback Paul Vcncsky
did not play at all on Saturday because
of his injured ankle and wrist. In place
of him , redshirt freshman Dave Robson called the the signals for the game.
However, the blame docs not belong
only to Robson.
Consider that: Bloomsburg gained
38 net yards rushing. The team leader
was Leonard Bluitt with 31 yards before leaving in the third quarter with
an ankle injury .
The Huskies amassed 92 TOTAL
yards for the whole game compared to
Cheyney's 206. The Wolves also had
more passing yards and more first
downs.
The Cheyney defense was so stifling that Robson was sacked eight
limes, tliree times by the Wolves'
defensive standout , Ron Curry. The

Huskies were forced to punt ten times
in the game.
Nolicc that these game notes do not
contain statistics concerning missed
blocks, botched handoffs, and turnovers (two by the Huskies).
However, as lackluslcr the performance was by Bloomsburg , the offense
still managed to get three points on the
board , via a Mark Weiss 39 yard field
goal.
The short drive was set up by John
Hcllgrcn 's recovery of a Cheyney
fumble. Hcllgrcn was a last minute
replacement for starting left end Todd
Lcilzcl.Bolh he and his backup, Darryl
Richards, were injured and did not
play.
Hellgren 's recovery came on tlie
Cheyney 29 yard line. Runningback
Mike Medina carried tlie Huskies to
the 22 where Weiss came on for his
successful kick. The score came at
10:55 in the fourth quarter.
Cheyney made one last ditch effort
to pull the game out on their final
possession as the Wolves started at
their own 20 and drove all the way to
the BU 26 yard line, wilh only 45
seconds to play .
However, Joshua Lee came up with
a big sack for a 13 yard loss and
Cheyney turned the ball over on
downs.
The Bloomsburg defense was, as

usual, very tough , as evidenced by the
shut-out victory. The Huskies had
three fumble recoveries and two interceptions.
The fumble recoveries were credited to Dclmas Woods, Scott Long,
and Hcllgrcn. Interceptions were
made by Trent Dennis and Wade
Pickett.
Also, credit the secondary of
Bloomsburg as the Cheyney receivers were constantly covered. Besides
the great play of Woods, a fine game
were also enjoyed by Bruce Linton ,
Dan Shult , and Tom Heavy.
Punter Jimmy Noyc had a very
busy afternoon as he punted ten times
for a 37.7 yard average and a long of
57. His kicks consistently kept
Cheyney deep in their own territory.
For Bloomsburg, despite the inconsistencies, a win is a win , and their
mark improved to 6-1 , while
Cheyney fell to 1-6. Next week is
Homecoming for BU in an afternoon
matchup against Mansfield.
For the Huskies, it is their last game
before they face three Top Twenty
teams in a row to close out their
schedule, Millersville, IUP, and New
Haven.
These three games and Manfield
will determine if Bloomsburg will
advance to the NCAA Division II
playoffs.

shot when it comes on net.
The Huskies didn 't allow many
decent shots until the second half.
After the Hurst goal which gave
Bloomsburg the 1-0 lead, Salisbury
put pressure on the defense. Every
time Salisbury came close to the
Bloomsburg cage, Kolar made every
save.
Kolar has now recorded her 12th

shutout of the season and has cut her
goals against average to under 0.40.
"I could still play better ,"said Kolar.
"I have to work on clearing the ball
better and making better stops so the
ball doesn 't deflect so far. But if wc
continue to play as well as we have, we
should be prepared for our conference
tournament."
Previously sixth ranked Salisbury

fel l to 8-1-3 as this was there first
defeat of the season.
The victory gives the Huskies a 151-1 record for the season with only
one game remaining in tlie regular
season with Ithaca this Tuesday before the Huskies host the PSAC
Championship the weekend of Oct.
28th and 29lh.

Hockey wins battle of champions 1-0
by Lincoln Weiss
Sports Editor
The Bloomsburg University field
hockey team won a battle ofthe last two
national champions as they defeated
Salisbury State College 1-0.
The only goal of the contest came
witli 8:48 left in regulation as Cindy
Hurst knocked in a rebound from a shot
by the Huskies Christy Gibson.
The game was played in perfect
weather but neither team seemed to
play particularly well.
"Wc looked sluggish and flat out
there today," said Bloomsburg coach
Jan Hutchinson. "We didn 't seem to
husde and we didn 't support each
other." K
The first half , much like last weekends game wilh Kutztown , was dominated by the Huskies.
Bloomsburg had many opportunities
to score but could not cash in on their 37
shots and 18 penally corners.
Salisbury 's goalie Tracey Short
made 22 saves in the game and
Bloomsburg could not put in the rebounds.
"She(Short) was making saves and
leaving the ball lay and we were not
hustling to the ball lo get the rebounds,"
continued Hutchinson. "We should
have scored more garbage goals than
just that one."
On the Bloomsburg defensive end ,
the Huskies did not let Salisbury get
near the Bloomsburg 's goaltcnder
April Kolar.

Kolar had another uneventful day
as she made just 13 saves as Salisbury
had only 17 shots during the afternoon.
"The defense is marking the ball
very well and the ball just doesn 't get
to me that often which can be nerve
wracking at times," began Kolar.
"After not receiving the ball all game,
I might not be prepared for a decent
