CGA questions Provost on classes
by Da wn M. D'Aries
News Editor
Concerns about lhe mass communication program were addressed by Dr.
Belly Allamong, provost and vice
president for Academic Affairs, at a
Community Government Association
(CGA) Senate meeting held Monday
at 5:30 p.m. in thc Kehr Union.
Allamong explained that administration is working to correct problems in the mass communicalions department.
A summer search for faculty to fill
three positions in thc department resulted in the hiring of two full-time
professors and two temporary professors.
In response to student concerns, administrauon has approved the continuance of die two temporary positions.
Asked why the third position had to
be filled with temporary instructors,
Allamong replied that it was difficult
finding qualified people for the job.
She noted that if enough students need
a course and administration "can identif y qualified , temporary faculty, then
we'll add the course."
Kris Rowe, CGA project coordinator, pointed out that most of the speech
communicalions and mass communications courses are taught by professors wilh master's degrees and asked
for a clarification of what is considered "qualified."
Allamong responded lhat experience

and degree were important considerations when hiring instructors .
At thc mass communications meeting held Sept. 7, students complained
that part-time professors wilh valuable experience, but insufficient degrees, were released.
Mark Bcaudoin , CGA parliamentarian, asked why professors already
in the department couldn 't pick up one
extra class.
"If the students are there, wc are
willing to authorize giving professors
extra classes," Allamong said.
"However, you must keep in mind
that these professors also have other
scholarly activities ,"she added.
Responding to concerns that advertising may no longer be offered as a
major , Allamong said that it has not
been officiall y dropped.
"When we drop an area we will
work wilh students to complete their
coursework and graduate,"Allamong
said."Our obligation to students is in
those departments where they have
becn accepted in the major."
One senate member commented lhat
there are many underclassmen who
came to Bloomsburg for a mass communicalions degree but are now considering transferring.
Allamong said that there are other
options for such students.
For example, students interested in
political reporting can major in political science and students planning
to enter advertising might consider

a business major.
"Students should consider alternatives here at Bloomsburg ," said
Allamong."There are many ways to
get to the same place."
In other business, CGA was given a
check for thc scholarship fund. On
behalf of the Husky Ambassadors,
Mike Morrissey presented the $275
check. Thc money was raised by ticket
sales for Trading Places Day.
President Harry Ausprich commented that he enjoyed the day and
noted that he now has office hours in
the Kehr Union once a month .
He reminded students to attend his
open foru m next Tuesday at 7 p.m. in
the Kehr Union.
Thc Finance Committee reported
that the Provost Lecture Series Committee requested $4500 to fund a lecture by Dr. Jonathan Kozol on February 22, 1989.
A stipulation was made to have two
CGA representatives appointed to the
committee.
Citing lhat Lecture Scries speakers
service students, senate approved the
request. Kris Rowe and Howie Lieberman were appointed as CGA representatives.
Thc StudentNurses Association was
also granted $182 to help send 13
people to the Studen t Nurses Association of Pennsylvania convention in
Valley Forge.
In closing, senate members encouraged people to give blood today.

Head Nurse Esther Stiles commented , "We're

The presidential race is over, and
the issues of 1988 are fading: Who
most enjoys reciting the Pledge of Allegiance? What would a Chrysler cost
in Seoul? How many revenue agents
are enough?
What remains are the real issues.
Hoary, intractable and perh aps insolvable, they crowd the agenda of the new
president, and may well determine the
success of his administration.
The issues in 1989 are legion. They
range from ozone depletion to defense;
from the West Bank to world debt. A
few, however, go to the essence of the
office and will directly affect the new
president's exercise of his constitutional duties.
Article 2, Section 1 says the president's first job is chief executive officer of the federal government. In that
capacity, he proposes a budget to run
his sprawling domain , and spends
money appropriated for that purpose

Meese investigation published

by Ronald J. Ostraw

L.A. Times-Washington Post Service

The Department of Justice's chief
internal investigators ended a threemonth investigation of former Attorney General Edwin Meese III and has
written a highly critical assessment of
Meese's ethical conduct during his
tenure.
No details could be learned about
the sensitive report, which was done
by Michael E. Shaheen Jr., the department's counsel for professional responsibility.
Shaheen opened his investigation
after independent counsel James C.
McKay concluded in his own report
that Meese "probably " had committed four violations of federal conflictof-interest arid tax laws.
The report was completed several
days ago,but department officials said
that it had not yet been sent to Attorney
General Dick Thornburgh. Officials
denied that the delay had anything to
do with the presidential election, saying that it was held up because of
"legal questions. "
Robert S. Ross Jr., Thornburgh 's
executiveassistant,declined in an interview to detail the questions involving
the report but said that they could
affect other legal cases.
Ross, who forwarded the legal questions to the department's criminal
division and various U.S. attorneys,

said that there also were questions
about how the report should be released.
Ross said he believed that all those
questions would be resolved in a
number of weeks.
Its release now might affect the
prosecution early next year of Meese's
long-time friend , E. Robert Wallach.
Wallach , a former law school classmate of Meese, is facing trial next
January on charges of defrauding the
scandal-plagued WedtechCorp. He is
accused of accepting money from
Wedtech to influence Meese to help
the now-defunct New York company
get government defense contracts.
It was not clear why any findings by
Shaheen would be more likely to affect the criminal case against Wallach
than the voluminous report issued by
McKay.
Meese, saying that he had been
cleared of any wrongdoing, resigned it
after McKay 's report. Although
McKay did not seek criminal charges,
Meese and his lawyers sharply disputed the independent counsel's findings.
Shaheen 's investigation is the final
official inquiry into Meese's controversial personal actions as attorney
general.
In September,the executive branch' s
Office of Government Ethics accused
Meese of undermining the public's

"The whole process takes about 45 minutes and
we check every pint we collect for AIDS," Stiles
added.
University blood drive coordinator Paul Conrad ,
who has given blood 122 times commented, "The
student turnout has been terrific , but !
would like
to see a greater faculty and staff respor.se."
Student donor Ray Matty, CGA vice president
commented, "I've given blood eight times now. I
was able to donate for my brother before he was
operated dn , so giving blood is a personal thing for
me.

reduce the deficit?
Aaron says yes. Spending cuts alone
cannot reduce the deficit to acceptable
levels, he insisted this week.
"If you look at the numbers, taxes
must be an element in any plan for
serious deficit reductions," he said.
Edward Hudgins, director of the
Center on International Economic
Growth at the Heritage Foundation in
Washington , believes otherwise.
"Raising taxes is the worst possibi'e
option ," he said. "You may end up
destroying the economy in order to
balance the books."
Taking billions of new tax dollars
away from consumers and business
does slow economic growth , he asserted. Higher taxes could even spark
a recession, resulting in lower tax
revenues and a greater deficit, Hudgins said. His advice to the new president would be to keep hammering
away at Congress to cut spending, and
to accept budget deficits as an effective means of imposing fiscal discipline on government.
The president's second role is commander in chief of the armed forces,
the 41st president can take pride in the
force he inherits from Ronald Reagan.
Its strategic forces (long-range rockets and heavy bombers) have been
significantly reinforced. Its naval fleet
has grown dramatically. Its ground
forces are attracting high-caliber recruits.
There is no question we have a
stronger force then we had at the beginning of the decade," said Alexis
Cain, senior budget analyst at the
Defense Budget Project in Washington. "The question is, can it be sustained?"
The defense budget peaked in 1986,
and its purchasing power has been
shrinking since. Congress shows little
interest in increasing defense spending. Indeed, given the deficit, some in
Congress may want to cut military
spending.
Meanwhile, Reagan 's military
buildup continues. Billions have been
spent recent years to develop new
fighters and missiles that can evade
radar detection, new surface ships that
can shoot down cruise missiles, new
cargo planes, attack helicopters and
tilt-rotor aircraft.
Just to keep the Reagan buildup
going for the next five years, the new
president will have to increase spending 4 percent a year, plus adjustments
for inflation. Looked at another way,
if Congress does not increase defense
spending over the next five years, the
commander in chief will probably
receive $300 billion less than he will

need to finish the Reagan program.
Issue: How to keep defense strong
while spending less?
The new president could free cash
to continue the buildup by shrinkig
forces now in the field. Indeed , some
of that has already begun. The Air
Force has fewer fighter wings now
than it had when Reagan took office.
The Navy will retire 16 frigates this
year to free up money for new ships.
Alternately, the president could cancel the weapons now rolling off assembly lines and make do with older
technologies.
Finally, he could keep the new
weapons coming and maintain the
current strength, but to do so he would
have to cutback on fuel and ammunition and trim training schedules.
"It is pretty widely agreed that that
is a bad way to go, Cam said. It
would reduce readiness."
Whatever the commander in chief
decides, Cain added , "he is going to
face a lot of tough choices."
The Constitution also appoints the
president chief treaty-maker.
The pact most on Washington's
mind would reduce long-range nuclear weapons by 50 percent. Reagan
has said a treaty could be completed
next year. Critics, many of them Reagan admirers, fear, however, th at the
outgoing president has been too eager
to conclude a treaty.
"He is leaving office , and wants to
leave behind him an arms-control
edifice," said Andrew Goldberg, an
expert on Soviets for the Center for
Strategic and International Studies in
Washington.

Present meal plan needs
much improvement
To the Editor
We feel that there is a need for a
change in meal plans or at least more
options available for the students io
choose from in the current meal plan.
Seme of the options that should be
available for m eals are a 10 m eal plan
fcr on campus students who do not eat
breakfast.
Also , meal plans that are good for
any meal one wishes to eat .
A system that could be used instead
of the current meal plan is the point

system. This way a student purchases
points where each point is worth a
certain amoun t of money and then
uses these points to buy meals.
.Another idea would be to use a credit
card system . A student would paymoney, have it put on a credit card and
purchase meals according to price of
the food . In both of these systems the
student would have an option of how
much money to give for the semester,
but would be able to add points or
monev to the credit card throueh the

semester if needed.
In all of these proposal s, we feel that
students should be able to use them in
the Kehr Union as well as the
Commons. Students should also be
reinbursed for meals not eaten or
money and points not used.
The bottom line is lhat we feel that
some type of change is neededin the
meal plan system to fit the students '
needs and benefit students.
Sincerely

Fun begins for Federal Election Commission

by Charles R. Babcock

L.A. Times-Washington Post Service

WASHINGTON - So you thought
the interminable presidential election
was fun? For Stan Huckaby and Kim
Manolius and Robert Costa and their
staffs, the fun is just beginning.
Costa, head of the audit division at
the Federal Election Commission, will
be sending teams to visit Huckaby,
treasurer of GOP nominee George
Bush's campaign committee, starting
Nov. 28, and Manolius, of Michael S.
Dukakis' campaign, Dec.5. And that's
just to look at the money spent in the
primary season.
"We figure it will be three yearsand
$3 million," Huckaby said of the
coming audit process. To prepare for
it , the Bush campaign has set up an
elaborate procedure involving backup
computer systems, and four copies of
each check it makes to a vendor.
The campaign even sends "checkwriters" like Bill Jasien on the road with
the vice president. He pays vendors
who submit correct invoices on the
spot. And each night Jasien sends the
latest packet of in voices back to Washington by overnight mail. As a result
the campaign knows just how much
money it has left, and is compiling
accurate files for the coming audit,

Huckaby said.
He said the campaign already has
rented the basement floor of an office
building in Alexandria , Va., to
accommodate the auditors who will
check on how the GOP candidate spent
about $27 million to get the
nomination.
There FEC staffers will comb
through 22 large file drawers filled
with invoices which form a stack of
documents 350 feet high.
Theaudit of the$46 million inpublic
funds Bush and Dukakis each spent
during the fall campaign won 't begin
until early next year.
Critics of the process say the delays
make campaign officials cynical as
they have no real incentive to obey the
law, the argument goes, because years
may pass before penalties are handed
out for violations found in the audits.
Michael Berman, treasurer of the
campaign of 1984 Democratic candidate Walter Mondale, disagrees. "I
didn 't appreciate how long it would
take," he said of the auditing. "We
didn 't get finished until February
1988."
In the end, the Mondale campaign
had to hand the government a lot of
money in assorted fines and repayments. "That ain 't chopped liver,"

Berman said.
He does question whether the postelection audits should be such a
pressing focus of federal election law.
"If you look at the law, the main idea
is disclosure of how thc campaign is
financed on a relatively timel y basis.
What difference docs il make if you go
over a state spending limit? It 's not a
heinous crime. The audit goes to how
good your bookkeeping is, not who is
financing this campaign."
FEC official s have recommended
for several years that Congress delete
thc requirement thatcampaigns abide
bystate-by-statespending limitsinthe
primaries because of the bookkeeping
problems it creates.
The Reagan-Bush audit from the
1984 campaign still isn 'tfinished.Last
April , the FEC announced that the
GOP campaign was being fined
$10,000, ironically, for transferring
money improperly from its main
account to its fund for complying with
the law.
This ume around , B ush fund-raisers
were more careful. They set up an
event New York businessman Donald
Trump was sponsoring at the Plaza
Hotel.There they asked donors to sign
cards giving them permission to transfer their checks from the primary ac-

count to a separate compliance fund.
So far, the Bush compliance fund
has spent SI.7 million . Its financial
report for September, for instance,
listed expenses of S6.000 to Frederick
M. Bush , the campaign 's deputy
finance chairman , $15 ,000 to
Huckaby 's accounting firm , $25,000
to the Washington law firm of Jan W.
Baran , the campaign 'sgeneral counsel,
S21,655 to lhe Arthur Andersen & Co.
accounting firm , which helped select
the computer system , and $452 for
bottled water . "Wc don 't have a water
fountain ," Huckaby explained.
Thc Bush treasurer said the
campaign estimated it would write
24,500 checks during the 11-week fall
campaign. And because public money
was spent in the primary and general
elections , Huckaby said, he expects
FEC auditors to check about one in
every 10 transactions , far closer
scrutiny lhat the normal one in a 100
sample of usual business audits.
By tlie lime the FEC shows up at the
Bush and Dukakis camps, they will
have had plenty of practice. Sharon
Snyder , an FEC spokeswoman, said
agency auditors already have completed field audits of seven of the
prim ary season losers,and are working
on fi ve others.

candidate, Bush emerged as a scurry
fighter, waging a campaign based on
"mainstream values" and skillfull y
exploiting a national sense of wellbeing brought by the Reagan era.
For Bush, Tuesday night 's victory
ended an often bruising race lhat had
him pegged as a potential loser at least
three times: After his third-place finish
behind Sen. Robert J. Dole and TV
evangelist Marion G. "Pat'' Robertson
in February's Iowa caucuses; in late
spring, when his campaign drifted
uncertainly while continued primary
victories by Michael S. Dukakis gave
the Massachusetts governor a lead in
thepolls; after theDemocraticNational
Convention in July, when Dukakis
won support for calming party
divisions, patching up relations with
the Rev. Jesse L. Jackson and giving a
better-than-expected acceptance
speech.
Bush also had both the benefits and

baggage of belonging to an incumbent
administration.
He was able to campaign all year on
the renewed prosperity of the Reagan
years , evidenced in lower
unemployment, inflation and interest
rates and on the administration 's
success in achieving an arms-control
deal with the Soviets on intermediaterange nuclear forces.
But he also confron ted a voter
restlessness, desp ite President
Reagan 's continued popularity, and
the unwelcome high budget deficits
and criminal investigations of several
current and former administration
figures.
* The race pitted Bush against a postWorld War II pattern of one parts
remaining in office for no more than
eight years.
His own reticence about stepping
outside a vice presidential role
supported by his deference and loyally
had Republican professionals pining
for some demonstration that he was
"his own man."
Bush was widely seen as adding to
his own problems by his choice of a
largely unknown quantity, Sen. Dan
Quayle of Indiana , as running mate.
His turnaround began with his "I am
that man" acceptance speech at the

GOP convention in August that gave
him suddenly heightened stature as
the party 's standard-bearer.
Thereafter, a strategy of weakening
his opponent went into high gear.
Its pillars were law and order, low
taxes and a strong national defense of
those, the Bush campaign added
themes aimed at appealing to
conservative Southerners, blue-collar
Democrats and ethnics on the basis of
"shared values": voluntary school
prayer and the PJedge of Allegiance.
Through speeches and ads employed
with devastating effect the Bush
campaign hammered home thc notion
that Dukakis was "out of the mainstream."
These were particularly noticeable

University Store celebrates 15 years

'Sesame Street '
star to p lay with
B U-Community
Orchestra

by Bridget Sullivan
Features Editor
The University Bookstore is as old
as this institution — in January, they
both will be 150 years old. The University Store has been in its present
location for 15 "short" years.
A building called Old Waller Hall
once stood where Lycoming Hall is
right now. Old Waller was also a residence hall , but was dangerous and had
to be closed because it began to fall
down. However, that u-shaped structure also had a "Long Porch," that
since Elwell Hall was not yet built —
overlooked the Susquehanna River .
On the main floor of the Long Porch ,
in the west wing, was the Bookstore.
Where thc Bookstore is today used
to be the student union and the Commons, as well as the games roorh—all
the pool tables, ping pong tables, etc.
When the Commons was built, the
eating facilities were taken out , but the
serving lines remained, leaving a
snack bar. Kehr Union was built in
1973, and that summer the College
Store , as it was known when BU was
still Bloomsburg State College ,
moved into its present home.
The College Store celebrated its
Grand Opening at its new location in
November of that year.
University Store Manager Bill
Bailey has been with the store since
that year, and he even keeps a scrapbook of advertisements , newspaper
clippings , photographs and even the
slips of paper from prize giveaways
the store has sponsored over the years
— with the winners ' names on them,
too.

ries was quite interesting ...
—In Jul y of 1975, there wasa dance
marathon — "We used to have them
here all the time," Bailey says — and
two BSC students got their names in
the Guiness Book of World Records
for the amount of time they danced.
— That same year, the Bloomsburg
State College Store was named the
largest college bookstore in the Pennsylvania state school system.
— Three collegiate organizations
on campus held a "Kissing Booth"
fundraiser in 1978; members of the
men 's soccer team, Chi Sigma Rho
and Delta Epsilon Beta puckered up to
raise money for the future of a camp.
— In 1980, the Bloomsburg State
College Store reached its SI million
mark in sales; last year ('87-'88), it
surpassed 52,500,000.
— The College Store purchased its
first computer in 1981. Bailey says,
"Now we're on our second (computer) , thinking a'bout a third system."
— 1981, in The Campus Voice
(even the newspaper changed a bit in
15 years) printed an article about the
College Store. It said , "Jhe philosophy of the College S tore is to charge as
little as possible for the educational
items and to make a profit on nonrequired items." Bailey says that philosophy still holds true today.
Another article appeared in The
Campus Voice concerning the problem of shoplifting. Bailey says, "ltwas
a problem then , and is still a problem
today."
— The next year was a big one for
the College Store because that was the
year Bloomsburg State College became Bloomsburg University . That

caused a problem with souvenirs —
the t-shirts and sweatshirts all said
Bloomsburg State.
They obviously made the transition
well. 1982 also marked a name change
for the College Store as well as the
school. The College Store became the
University Store that now serves the
campus community.
The biggest difference between thc
Bookstore Bailey has noticed over the
years is in the merchandise.
When he first came here 15 years
ago, he was told he "shouldn 't think of
mugs ... or anything over S10 because
students couldn 't afford il." He says,
"Now we've found that if there's a
demand for a product , students will
pay."
Back then , the College Store carried
"one style of jacket, one style sweatshirt and a t-shirt ," according to a
University Store employee who has
been with the University since 1963.
The employee says that students 15
years ago had simpler fashion tastes.
The styles were simple and thc prices
less. The employee estimated the
jacket price then to be "about SI9."
The group of students on campus
today "knows names," and in the last
few years, the employee says, new
styles of clothing for the University
Store come out every season. The last
number of styles Manager Bill Bailey
remembers is "at least 32."
One or two mugs were available
then , and the College Store also had a
record promotion and wide selection
of music for a number of years, but the
records didn 't do too well.
The Store used to have "16 feet of
greeting cards," according to the

Jamaican-based reggae band S.VVA.M.M.P. (Sound, Wisdom and Many Musical Powers) will jam at BU on Saturday, Nov. 12
I from 8:30 to 11:30 p.m. in Kehr Union.

Nursing students help
ACS 'Smokeout' campus

Some Bloomsburg University students will bevolunteerin g to take a test
on Thursday, Nov. 17, 1988.
This "test" won 't establish their
knowledge of American history, English literature or basic accounting. It
will test their ability to do without
cigarettes for on 24-hour period.
The BU students will be among the
millions of American smokers participating in the American Cancer Society's Great American Smokeout. The
Society sponsors the Great American
Smokeout each year on the third
Thursday in November, to encourage
smokers to test theirwillpower for just
one day.
This year marks the 12th annual
Smokeout celebration. Last year's
Smokeout convinced 19.6 million
Americans to , make an attempt at a
"day off from smoking, according to
Brenda Colestock, publicity coordio
n
s
ii
'K ehr Union i^s

nator of the Smokeout and a senior
community nursing student.
"We know students aren't too crazy
about anything even remotely resembling a test," says Colestock. "That 's
why we're planning some fun activities to get everybody into the spirit of
the thing." Colestock says, "Among
the activities planned arc: adopt a
smoker program , cold turkey raffle,
survival kits for participants, educational booths and a coffin to bury the
dead habit
"The best news is, this is a test
nobody can fail, making any attempt
to quit makes you a Smokeout winner." Colestock adds, "Anybody who
tries, gets an 'A' for effort... and if you
make it the whole day, that's a definite
'A+'!"
The Bloomsburg S mokeout is being
coordinated by the fall 1988 community nursing class. "We are trying to

increase thc campus ' awareness of
the ill effects of smoking as a form of
health promotion ," says Teri Finkenbindcr, a community nursing student.
Colestock adds that thc Smokeout is
intended for everyone — students,
faculty , smokers, nonsmokers and
even "smokeless" tobacco users."We
hope everyone will participate," she
says."II' you 'rcnotasmokcroryou 've
already quit , you can 'adopt ' a friend
and help them get through tlie day."
Campus Smokeout planners are
especiall y interested in encouraging
"smokclcsss" tobacco users to join
their mora torium . "Unfortunately,
lots of young people consider snuff
and chewing tobacco safe alternatives
to cigarettes ... and that 's just not the
case," Colestock says.
"No matter what your tobacco habit
is, the Great American Smokeout is
your day lo pass it up."

emp loyee who wishes to remain anonymous , and now it carries "five
different greeting card lines." When
the employees took inventory of the
greeting card s, "everything was 25 or
30 cents!"
Thc Bookstore carried no Greek
items then , but il did have a shirt
imprinting business, and would do
letters; there was a whole selection of
decals, too.
Thc anonymous employee says, "It
did well in the beginning, " but other
stores later became stiff competition
and that business was eventuall y discontinued. In the last five years, the
University Store has become more
involved with Greek items.
The University Store employee
comments, "Everything was less —
we were making less money then."
The Store also offered more services then , too, including: cakes for all
occasion; shoe repair (in conjunction
with a store downtown) ; and dry
cleaning and film processing, the latter two still offered today.
Bailey says, "We've tried to maintain the quality [of the merchandise].
We don 't want to skimp ... [we] always
try to sell merchandise at the lowest
possible price."
In celebrating its 15th anniversary,
the Bookstore is having a sale, which
started Monday lasting until Saturday,
Nov. 12. All imprinted clothing,
emblematic gifts and stationery are 10
percent; and all non-textbooks in
stock are 20 percent off.
The Store is also giving away

Talk of
BDoorasburg
byKathy Clawson
for The Voice
Bloomsburg University
features many unique sculptures and works of art scattered around campus, but
one in particular aroused our
curiosity. When we walked
between them , everything
echoed . How dothey work,we
wondered.
The "echos" are on an island triangle between Navy
Hall and Bakeless Center for
the Humanities, across from
Hass Center. Approximately
ten feet tall , they are a
brownish black color. They
face inward , several feet
apart from each other.
For more information , we
went to Dr. Robert B.
Koslosky, Associate Professor of Art at BU. He explained
that they are participatory
works of art , meaning that
people participate in the
sculpture. Voices and other
sounds are manipulated by
the pieces and create an echo.
The bases are made of corten ,
a type of steel that contains
oxides that create a finish.,
protecting it from rust. The
black disks are made of a
polyester resin , which acts in
the same way.
The sculpture commemorates Bloomsburg University 's role in aiding victims of
Hurricane Agnes. The Agnes
flood of June 24, 1972 put
most ofthe town under water.
The University, which is on
hi gher ground than most of
the town , opened it's residence halls to 2,000 refugees.
They were fed in the Scranton Commons and university
parking lots became helicopter landing pads. Dr.
Koslosky remembers helping
out by driving an ambulance.
Many professors volunteered
their time, he said.
The university received a
grant from The Art Foundation in Harrisburg in commemoration of their service,
it was used to commission the
sculpture form artist Joe
Moss. It was erected in 1973.

helps gives those children an education. Sponsoring four children himself , Crow strongly encouraged the
students in the audience to get a group
of friends together to sponsor a child.
Wilh 10 guitars on stage, Crow
played each one with undeniable
expertise as he conveyed his often
Christian messages through his
music.
After the concert, albums, cassettes and compact discs of Crow 's
recordings, as well as t-shirts and
Compasssion International information were available. Ironically, Crow
worked at the table himsel f, and
talked to his BU fans.
What slruck me most about this
tremendously talented man was his
sincerily. Robin Crow made the sincerest of attempts to get to know his
Bloomsburg audience, asking rindividuals their names, and really trying
to remember them.
Two guys were standing next to me
at the table, waiting to buy some recordings and onewas trying to find
something Crow could sign his autograph on. His friend said, "His music
is his autograph."
Thepeople in the audience received
Robin Crow 's "autograph " that nighl,
and it's one they will not soon forget.

We re dealing with questions a
child has," said executive producer
Singer. "We sort of open the door but
hopefully don 't take over what really
is parent's role.
At one point Maria and Luis go to
the doctor's office , and she has a
sonogram. We try to look at it from a
child' s point of view. Then hopefully
children can go to. their parents with
any other questions.
"Big Bird will ask the questions
lhat a five-year-old will have. The
season we will gradually work into an
older child , bathing, changing
diapers .sibling rivalries."
Big Bird will not only become
curious about the new baby, but he
will get an alter ego, Blue Bird, a
superhero who sets off on high-action
adventures that Big Bird himself
imagines.
Singer said that "Sesame Street"
will encourage its viewers to create
their own stories and will also expand
its science curriculum through the
curiosity of a new little-girl puppet
named Ruby.
This year celebrity guests will include Lily Tomlin, Tracey Ullman,
Lee Curtis, Billy Joel, James Galway, Kathleen Turner , Rhea

Loretta Long was working as a
teacher in New York City, hosting a
local television show and hoping for
a career in acting when she auditioned for the role of Susan on a
television experiment called "Sesame Street" two decades ago.
She got the role and has been one
of three on-camera cast members.
The others are Bob McGrath and Big
Bird (Caroll Spinney) , who have
gone the distance with the phenomenally successful PBS series.
Monday that Children's Television Workshop production that some
called most important children show
in the history of television begins its
20th year.
Behind it are some 2,500 episodes
and dozens of awards, all of which
began with Joan Ganz Cooney's
1968 study of youngsters whose
learning opportunities were limited
because of poverty.
"Sesame Street" has proved that
children are responsive to quick,
memorable messages, a proven advertising technique, and can absorb
more throug h television than anyone
first imagined.
Along the way, researchers found
that everi very young children can
learn from and enjoy plots.
This 20th season begins with a new
introduction , filmed partly in Washington, and features the honeymoon
of Luis and Maria, who were married
on the show last year.
In the spring episodes will focus on
Maria's pregnancy and the birth of
their child in May. Like all "Sesame
Street" endeavors, this one has been
thoroug hly researched. In addition ,
Sonia Manzano (Maria), with a new
baby at home , is helping to write l\/fi |J". ""

Wall Street , written and directed
by Oliver Stone has an all star cast.,
Charlie plays a talented young stockbrokers, Bud Fox, who 's concern
about his career leads him into the
hands of Michael Douglas.
Douglas plays Gordon Gekko, a
modem day corporate raider, who
will use anyone to feed his ravenous
greed. Bud' s father, Carl Fox, played
by Martin Sheen , is a blue collar
worker. His character keeps the moral
side of Wall Street realistic. He is one
of the few forces influencing Bud to
try to stay on the the straight and

Gekko's theory of greed rules all,

clashes with his father 's knowledge
of what kind of man Gordon Gekko

Those students who went home last
weekend, or had "better things to do"
last Saturday night missed an impressively entertaining concert by an
exceptionally talented man named
Robin Crow. To be totally honest, I
had not heard of him myself before
last Saturday night. But I will definitely remember him from now on.
Crow, a self-taught guitarist, put
on an hour-long performance in Kehr
Union , bringing to Bloomsburg University his distinctive, unique, rulebreaking jazz /pop/avant-garde
sound. Playing selections from the
albums spanning his eight-year professional recording carccr.Legend of
a Fool , Finish Line, Seven SeventySeven , Creator, and his newest reIzaseWindows to the World. Crow's
mastery of the guitar was obvious as
he perform ed his mainly instrumental songs that were as inspirational as
they were enjoyable.
Crow promoted an organization
called Compassion International

Women's Basketball prepare
for upcomong 88-89 season
by Lincoln Weiss
Sports Editor
Last year the Bloomsburg University women 's basketball team had the
best season ever at Bloomsburg winning more than 20 games in the school's
history. The team was comprised
mostly of inexperienced freshman ,
which made that feat more impressive. However , the Bloomsburg express derailed and was beaten by Lock
Haven in thc Conference semifinals
by a score of 77-71.
This year the Huskies hope to improve on that and perhaps win the
PSAC this year. "What happened last
year was disappointing, " said
Bloomsburg head coach Joe Bressi.
"We had won 11 games in a row and
were playing well and we had a letdown and lost a big game. But I think
that will be positive for our team because a lot of those people that let
down in that game will be back this
year."
This year's team will beavery young
and talented group with ten players
returning from last year's team.
Youth will be our weakness,"
commented Bressi. "But we are approaching this year as if our players
are experienced players because they
are all returners from last year. I believe that our depth will overcomeour
youth. If one of our players gets injured or is not playing well I believe
that one of our other players will be
able to pick up the slack."
Bloomsburg's strength should be
it 's quickness. Bressi will be able to
move Theresa Lorenzi to a forward
position instead of guard due to the
development of Elaine Wolf. Bressi
believes that that will make the Huskies a much quicker team than last
year. "As opposed to last year when
we went with two big girls, that tended
to siow us up a little,"continued Bressi.
"But we had to find a spot for Wolf ,
she is too good a player not to have in
there and her play should make us a

much quicker team. ..
The Huskiesschedule will beatough
one including teams such as last year's
national champion Hampton. Other
teams that Bloomsburg will face during the season is Army, Pace, IUP, and
a rematch with Lock Haven. Unlike
last year, this schedulewill not include
any Division III teams. "The only way
you improve as a team is to face better
competition ," Bressi said. "Last year
we may have had a few teams that
were easy victories , but this year we
have a tougher schedule and you have
to play teams like Army and Hampton
in order to improve ourselves."
Starting at point guard this year will
be Becky Pigga. She is an excellent
ballhandler and good passer. She averaged3.1 p.p.g. last year but missed
parts of last season due to injuries Her
scoring will not always be impressive
in numbers but that is only because she
will look to pass the ball before she
shoots it.
At the wing position will be Nina
Alston. Alston was the second leading
scorer on the team last year as a freshman with an average of 12.8 points per
game. Her strengths are her scoring
ability including range from the three
point area. Bressi says that Alston 's
main weakness is defensive play but
that she continues to work hard at that
aspect of the game and is improving.
Inside the Huskies will look to Wolf ,
who Bressi considers his smartest
player. "She doesn 't overplay and takes
what is given to her," commented
Bressi.
Wolf is the only freshman to see
action in all of Bloomsburg 's contests
last year.
At the other forward spot you have
Lorenzi. Lorenzi is the Huskies big
scorer and finished fourth in the nation
in Division II in scoring last year with
an average of 23.8 p.p.g. She holds the
Bloomsburg career mark for scoring
with 1,623 points. "She is working the
best I've have ever seen her work."

said Bressi. "She has become^ the
complete ball player in terms of defense, running the ball , rebounding,
and leading our team. She is convinced that this will be her year."
At center with be Barb Hall. Hall ,
the tallest player in the lineup led the
team in rebounds last year with an
average of 8.1 rebounds per game and
scored 8.8 p.p.g. She is working on
improving her inside gamcand should
bc very tough inside. Hall will give the
Huskies that inside rebounding that
teams need in order to win ball games.
As far as thc bench is concerned,
Bressi will look towards Donna Cooper, Sandy Heir, and Karen DeLulla.
Bressi believes that with these three
people he should have depth inside
and will get good mileage out of his
team.
Cooper averaged 5.9 p.p.g. and saw
a lot of action last year.
Herr is a smart player and should
improve on her scoring of 1.4 p.p.g.
DeLullo averaged 3.1 p.p.g. and will
be a steady defensive player for the
Huskies.
At the wing positions, Bressi looks
towards freshmen Kath y Maguire and
Michelle Simons to relieve Alston.
According to Bressi it will only be a
matter of time for these freshman to
adjust to the college game and become
impact players.
Relieving Pigga at guard will be
another freshman Bernadette Needham
or he will move Alston to that position
at times.
Bressi also would like to see contributions from Chris Sims, freshmen
Tam ika Howard ,Lesley Seitzinger and
Carol Wysocki , and Barb Smith .
"We have competition at each spot
and that 's healthy for us because it
makes our players work harder," concluded Brcssi.
The Huskies open up their season at
the Immaculata Tournament on Nov.
18-19 and have their home opener on
Nov . 21 againstLemoyhe'(N.Y.).

Bloomsburg football looks to end the season on a positive note with a victory over New Haven

BU ice hockey drops opener
The Bloomsburg University ice
hockey team opened it 's season with a
frustrating 10-5 loss to N.E.P.H.L. twoyear champion Wilkes WingsPlaying
without goal tenders Mike Donchez or
Mark Prince , Bloom put Pier Bloche
in the net.
The first game of the year did have
some positive sides to it , as Bob Weiss
slammed in his first three goals ofthe

year for a hat trick.
Other goal scorers were Mick
Petrulla , and Tom Barbush.
Dcfenscman Bob Zarko added three
assists. Bloomsburg has a good number of upperclassmcn returning to this
year 's team. They include:
Fourth-year senior Tom Barbush ,
third-year seniors Alan Filiault , Bob
Zarko, Mick Petrulla , Pat Newman ,

along with second-year players Bob
Weiss, Sam Forker, Jeff German , and
Bob Bloch.
Some strong freshmen could possibly make this one of the best teams in
the league.
BU' s next game is Tuesday, Nov.
13, against the Scranton Blue Devils.
Faceoff is at the Wilkes Barre Ice-ARama at 9:15.

Freshmen Tracy Price and Kimm
MiUer appear to be the top newcomers. Price was a high school AilAmerican and a placewinner in thc
1988 PIAA state champ ionshi ps.
Miller was a four-time diving placewinner in the state hi gh school meet.
Freshmen Heidi Kohlhaas, Shannon
Simonet and Kelley Tracey should
add quality performances in thc sprint
freestyle and butterfly races.
Junior Bob Potter is the top returning conference placewinner for thc
men 's team after finishing high in two
individual events and competing as

part of two placewmning relay squads,
he was ninth in the 100-yard backstroke and 10th in the 200-yard backstroke and was a member of the Huskies ' 400-yard freestyle and 400-yard
medley relays, which both placed sixth.
Sophomore Brian Duda also finished among the leaders in two individual events placing 12th in the 500yard freestyle and 10th in the 1,650yard freesty le.
Senior Jack Carr was a member of
both of Bloomsburg 's hi gh-finishing
relay teams, Todd McAllister , another
founluyear performer , was part of the
400-yard freestyle team.

Other veteran performers should
help the Huskies continue their improvement and better the eighth place
showing in last season 's conference
meet. Senior Andy Savarese, sophomores Dave Danner, Mark Moore and
Joe Tyson and transfer John S tuhltrager
all have the experience to give the
team good balance in several events.
Six freshmen will have to adjust
quickly for the club to make rapid
improvement. They include Brain
Becker, Greg Brown , Bill Enck , Craig
Haberstumpft, Tom Keer and Dave
McNally.

Swimming has young talent

They just can't do the job if th ey don 't have it

by Scott Ostler

L.A. Times-Washington Post Service

It was just a hunch , that Frank
Robinson might have a reaction to the
baseball news in the Tuesday morning
papers.
The news was that Jim Lefebvre had
been hired to manage the Seattle
Mariners and Art Howe had been hired
to manage the Houston Astros.
Lefebvre and Howe are white.
So ofthe 26 major league teams, 24
have white managers.
The Baltimore Horribles have a
black manager, Frank Robinson.
The California Angels don't have a
manager at the moment, but of the
several candidates, none has even a
decent suntan. One rumor is that the
Angels are considering Bob Costas,
because he has demonstrated an uncanny knack for motivating a ballclub.
As Robinson figures it, one out of
25 soon to be 26 is a lousy average,
even if the one is himself.
"It
doesn 't bother me that they didn 't hire
minorities for these positions,"Robinson said from his home in Los Angeles. "What bothers me is that it's business as usual. What I mean is, there
were five (managerial) jobs open this
winter. The only minority person
named, as being interviewed or con-

"You have to know the odds against

Not that Dallas (Green) or Jeff (Torborg) got hired. What bothers me is
that no progress has been made as far
as hiring minorities for decision-making positions.
"(Baseball owners and top executives) are thumbing their nose at people,
saying, 'Hey, we're gonna do it the
way we've always done it.' "
Robinson, history class, was baseball's first black manager, with the
Cleveland Indians in 1975, although
he preserved his amateur standing that
season by managing for nothing. He
was playing for the Indians when the
team offered him the manager's job,
and they refused to sweeten his salary
by a dime.
And this is a sport in which players
won't throw their dirty socks in to the
clubhouse laundry cart unless it's
covered by a bonus clause.
Robinson managed the Indians for
three seasons, hemanaged in the min
ors one year, and he skippered the San
Francisco Giants from '82 to '85. And
now the Horribles.
Thirteen seasons since he broke
the managerial color barrier, Robin-

son remains the only black manager.
He sees this as a lack of progress,
although at least now he is paid to
manage.
"It's the same situation as when I
was being considered for jobs,"Robinson said. "Every time a job opened up
itwas always, 'FrankRobinson , Frank
Robinson.' What I'm trying to say is,
there were other qualified people
worthy of being considered.
"This timearound (for the five teams
hiring managers) there were ot her
qualified people out there who should
have been considered."
Give us some names, Frank.
Willie S targell, Bob Watson,Elrod
Hendricks, Chris Chambliss. Thes e
are just off the top of my head. Bobby
Tolan should be considered. Vada
Pinson is certainly interested in managing and is well deserving. Tolan
interviewed with Houston, butnot with
(John) McMullen (chairman of the
board).McMullen talked to four other
candidates, but not Tolan."
I asked Robinson if some teams
interview or mention a man like Bill
Robinson as a smoke screen, as if to
say, "See, we're considering blacks."
"No doubt about it," Robinson said.
"The thing that disturbs me, is, although I know major change doesn ' t

take place overnight, minorities have
not been hired in decision-making
positions. Farm directors , heads of
scouting ... "
Baseball's traditional argumentexcuse, as eloquently expressed by Al
Campanis, is that such decision-makers are hired after they have paid dues,
and blacks who aspire to such jobs
tend to be unwilling to spend time
working up the ladder.
"St. Louis hired Ted Simmon s as
farm director," Robinson said. "He
did not work his way up. Dal Maxvill ,
St. Louis general manager, did not
work his way up. He was taken off the
coaching lines at Atlanta. Minorities
have to work their way up.not whites."
It's almost eerie. When teams hire
managers, no man 's qualifications are
too laughable to rule him out. Many
guys get bi g league managing jobs
with no prior experience. The Padres
once hired Jerry Coleman , an announcer whose trademarks were malapropisms and befuddlement.

BU football hopes to end
season on a positive note
The Bloomsburg University
footbal l team will close the 1988
season this Saturday, Nov . 12, when
thc Huskies travel to West Haven ,
Conn., to face the chargers of die
University of New Haven. Game
time is set for 1 p.m. in Robert B.
Dodds Stadium.
The clubs, both of which were
ranked as high as 13th in the national
poll this season, had any hopes of
post-season playoff berths dashed
last week. Bloomsburg dropped a 327 decision to a strong Indiana (Pa.)
squad , while New Haven fell 31-17 at
Division I-AA Towson State. The
Huskies will talc a 7-3 mark into the
contest, and the Chargers are 6-3.
Coach Pete Adrian's team held a 76 advantage at halftimc duc to tackle
Chris Gross' 48-yard interception
return of a tipped pass for a
touchdown in thc second quarter.
However, the Indians took the lead
for good on their first possession of
the second half and never looked
back. The Bloomsburg offensive unit
struggled most of the afternoon and
managed just 127 yards in total
offense.
Mike Medina was the Huskies' top
rusher in the game with 42 yards and
now has 287 this season on 85 carries.
Eric Speece is the team's leading
active runner with 292 yards on 62
rushes. The duo has shared the ballcarrying duties since the Huskies' top
runner, Leonard Bluitt, was sidelined
for the season in the seventh game.
Bluitt had gained 627 yards and
scored six touchdowns before his
departure.
Paul Venesky was off target last
week completing only six of his 24
pass attempts for 50 yards. He was
also intercepted three times by the
Indiana defense. The senior has
thrown for 1055 yards on an 82 of 205
performance and has tossed four
touchdown passes.
Tight end Paul Lonergan is the top

receiver with 35 receptions for 416
yards, an average of 11.9 yards per
catch. Wide receiver Jeff Sparks has
caught 10 passes for 183 yards and
two of thc touchdowns. Bluitt , despite
missing thc last three games, is second
in the receiving department with 14
catches for 84 yards.
In addition to his interception last
week , Gross enjoyed a fine afternoon
with eight tackles. The senior is fourth
on the defensive point chart with 51
tackles, an interception ,2.5 sacks, two
fumble recoveries and two tackles for
loss. The Huskies ' other tackle,
Joshua Lee, is the club leader in
defensive points, tackles and sacks.
He has already established a
Bloomsburg single-season mark with
11 sacks and has 82 tackles, two
fumble recoveries, four tackles for
loss, blocked a field goal and caused
two other fumbles. Linebacker Wade
Pickett is not far behind Lee in tackles
with 75, and defensive end Stcph Petit
had contributed 56.
New Haven depends heavily on the
arm of talented quarterback Mike
Horton . He has thrown for 1998 yards
and 13 touchdowns this season. The
senior has completed 144 of 291
passes. During last week's loss, he set
a stadium record with 395 passing
yards, completing 23 of 51 passes.
Flanker Bob Wietecha is Horton 's
favorite target with 40 receptions for
559 yards and one touchdown. He
made his 100th career catch last week.
Fullback Keith McCoy has caught 25
passes for 255 yards and a touchdown ,
while split end Dan Schwab has 24
receptions for 554 yards and three
scores. The chargers average 239.6
yards per game via the pass and run thc
ball for an average of 134.2 yards.
Tailback Marc Williams is the
club' s leading rusher with 449 yards
on 88 carries and has scored three
times. McCoy hasgained 305 yards on
66 rushes and has four touchdowns.
Middle linebacker Keith Dudzinski

is the top tackier with 75 followed
closely by fellow linebacker Tyrone
Barnett with 73 tackles. Barnett also
has three sacks which is second only to
tackle Tom Collett 's five for the club.
GAME NOTES: This is the sixth
meeting between thc teams with the
Huskies holding a 3-2 edge in the
series. The Huskies and Chargers also
closed thc 1987 season with
Bloomsburg scoring a 35-18 victory
in Robert B. Redman Stadium. In that
game, Bloomsburg 's all-time passing
yardage and touchdown passes leader
Jay DeDea capped his brilliant career
by completing 29 of 44 passes for 358
yards and four touchdowns. In
