Text from Pages 1 - 294 of the 1976 volume:

Bloomsburg State College is not a piece of land on which there are many buildings. Neither is Bloomsburg State College the President of the College. Nor is Bloomsburg State College the President of the CCA. Bloomsburg State College is a group of people with diverse backgrounds brought together for the purpose of learning; both scholasticaily and socidlly. Bloomsburg State College is all the attitudes and actions oi these people as they form a beautifully unique society. In this fifty-ninth edition of the Obiter,. Wf have attempted to give an overview of this society and the people and events which shape it. Please look through and remember 1976 at Bloomsburg State College. 03 o _o O U +-  E o CD o3 o r Kehr Union Kehr Union ... a place to hang out between classes . . . somewhere to go at night when there ' s nothing to do ... dances, movies, coffee-house performances, student recitals . . .

Some called it a Simulated Convention , others called it a Mock Convention , but whatever it was called, it was different. Over 1500 people were crowded into Centennial Gym on these two days where they heard Sen. Lowell Weicker deliver the Bicentennial Address and Sen. William Proxmire give the Keynote Speech. Many people shouted and screamed, others made deals and stole votes; some people drank themselves into oblivion and others got there by different ways. But, in the end it was not the crazies or the fascitis or even the alcoholics who won; it was the politicians — the serious people - who won. They picked Morris Udall and Jerry Brown to lead the Democratic Party to the White House. And so at the end of the day, the serious people went off to celebrate their victory over the crazies . And the crazies , being crazy, went off with them.  Events and Speakers I Homecoming 114 Homecoming Sweetheart Sandy Risner ■ ■ — • • .11 ' 1 — -J iv« ' r ' ' nr ' Blue Grass Festival and Crafts Fair Third World Cultural Week 118 i ,1 ■ ; ' ; Parent ' s Weekend Sibling ' s Weekend 119 Bicentennial Dance Marathon 120 .Mil ' 1 121 Frirl S( ruL ' L ' s Kansas Tim Moore 122 00 o _l i) Hall and Oates I.

The Huskies could put only 56 points on the board all year while their opponents put on 293. The Huskies also suffered 54 turnovers including 24 inter- ceptions while they were only able to come up with 24 of the oppositions miscues. Ihis inability of the offense put more pressure on the defense to come up with the big play and, with Coach Sproule trying to rebuild his defense, this proved to be too much for the young secondary to handle. This was also compounded by the lack of a consistent pass rush which added to the defenses problems. Finally, at the end of the year, Coach Sproule resigned as head football coach and was replaced by former head coach Ron Puhl who currently handles the cross coun- try and track teams. Coach Puhl returns to the team in hopes of attempting to turn around its fortunes and giving BSC a win- ning team. Individual leaders for the Huskies on of- fense were, scoring - Tom Brennan with 18 points followed by Barry Staton and )ohn McCauley with 12, receiving - Brennan with 12 catches for 277 yards followed by Staton with 10 for 182 yards and Wayne Meher, one of the three seniors on the squad, with 11 for 114 yards, rushing McCauley with 130 carries for 317 yards with a 2.4 average and Dan McCallum with 44 attempts and 201 yards for a 4.6 average. Ken Zipko was the leading passer with 34 completions out of 140 attempts for 681 yards. The defensive leaders Lou Sannutti, who lead the Huskies with two interceptions to tie with Dennis Sell for the lead in that department, and Dave Hower. Tom Koons led the team in recovered fumbles with six. £r ic- 132 i . .- 133 134 135 Hockey ' iJ JSSil ' sc 136 The women ' s field hockey team posted a 4-5-2 record last year, defeating Wilkes, Mansfield, Misercordia, and East Strouds- burg and placing four players on the Mideast Field Hockey Tournament team. The four players were Tracy Dimmig, loan Williams, Kathy Hotchkiss and Don- na Saint Maria. The Huskietts have all their players re- turning for next year except for Dimmig and Connie Slusser. This gives Coach Gardener hopes for a stronger team given the experience, and she hopes to get more team play from the members of the squad. 137 ::i ; ... •: m:: -,. «4 • ' ■ ■ •:.

The Huskies posted a 4-5-1 record and finished fourth in the Eastern division of the Pennsylvania Conference. Dexter Derr led the team in scoring with ten goals while freshman Dave Stock also knocked in seven scores for the Husky cause. The Huskies should continue to have a fine season next year as they only lose three players to graduation, Eric DeWald, Robin Carl and Norm O ' Rourke. Coach Mingrone feels that the Huskies are a young and developing team and he expects many good things from them in the years to come. He also expects more growth from them because of their leadership on the field. The Huskies should have another good year next season if they can keep away from the crippling injuries that beset them a year ago when the sport was still in the club team status. Next year could be a year tor them to be proud of. 9f 143 kW- lpf . y . iLi r. ' ft i jL-%r.- !85« f--4L- j « •« .■ ■ - 144 Wrestling 145 This year ' s wrestling season was the most outstanding and exciting of my young coaching ca- reer.Considering that our starting lineup consisted of six freshmen, three sophomores and one junior, it was a very challenging year for me and the team. We pulled together as a family, stated head coach Roger Sanders. The young Huskies completed the season with a 9-8-1 dual meet record, tied East Stroudsburg for third at the Pennsylvania Confer- ence championships, placed third at the Delaware Invitational, fourth at the Bucknell Invitational and v ere fifth in the Eastern Wrestling League. BSC took the team championship in the freshman — sophomore Keys- tone Invitational. The Huskies sent three wrestlers to the NCAA Division I champion- ships but sophomore Steve Scheib and freshmen Tony DiMarco and Andy Cappelli failed to place. Scheib placed first at 177 lbs. in the conference meet with DiMarco finishing second at heavyweight and Cappelli coping a fourth at 167. Scheib and DiMarco took seconds at the EWL tournament while Cap- pelli took a third. 146 147 Women ' s Swimming Despite the fact that thev had a losing season this vear, the vvonnen ' s swimming team had a successful year as they put several women in the Eastern Regional Meet. The team finished with a 5-7 mark as they were led by Caria and Tina De ries. Another one of the younger teams on campus, their outlook for next year should be er bright. i ' I li 149 1 ■ ' .T.-.- m j-tT - .. -1 150 151 l V l Men ' s Basketball 152 Led by the lourth ranked scorer in BSC history, the Husky Cagers finished this past season with a 13-10 record and a 6-6 mark in the conference where they placed fourth. Radocha, who has one more year to complete, has 1,180 points to trail only )ohn Willis (1,467), Robert Herzig (1,362) and Richard Lloyd (1,339). The Huskies have only one senior. Rich Yanni, so that most of the team will return next season for coach Charlie Chronister. The team they will have to catch for conference honors again will be Cheyney State, who finished in the top 20 in small college play. The Huskies should take a run at the title next year if everyone stays healthy and they keep from turnmg over the ball. Rounding out the team were Rich Evans, Rick loseph, sophomores Steve Bright and Al Williams, Kevin Crouse, John Bucher, )ohn McVeigh, Spence Peirce, Miles Reitnouer, Jeff Roth and Mark Vanderbeck. Bright, Evans, Williams and Joseph all saw a great deal of action for the Huskies. Bright was the second leading rebounder on the team behind Rodocha. Women ' s Basketbal 154 The Women ' s basketball team compiled an 11-2 record, enroute to one of their best seasons to date. The women, had a perfect record, up until the final few games of the season. Led by Ellen French and Judy Ludroff, the team handled most of their opponents with ease. The team has a good future ahead of it as thev are still young and growing. Mavbe next ear the can pull off an undefeated year. 155 156 157 Men ' s Swimming 158 The BSC mermen posted only their first losing record since 1965-66 as the posted a 5-8 mark last season. The Huskies faced possibly the toughest opposition in the school ' s history. The Highlight of the season for Coach McLaughlin was when the team posted a 58-55 victory to give the coach his 100th career victory. The Huskies had an All-American in Wayne Richards, a freshman who placed eighth in the 200 yard but- terfly at nationals with a time of 1:59.025. Richards won the 100 yard butterfly at the conference meet and also placed second in the 200 yard fly there. Keith Torok, Steve Price and Gary Oberly were also at the nationals as part of the 400 yard freestyle relay team but they only placed 16th. Hopefully next year will be better for the Huskies as they only loose one senior. Coach McLaughlin should have a fine young squad back next year. 159 Soccer row 1 Eric DeWakI, trit Ydiiiodk, Robin Carl, Ken Krjck, Bill Shelton, Rusb Sarault, Norm O ' Rourke, Steve Md|or, Steve Lance, kovs i Greg McCoach, ) Degenhart, Pete Hopkins, B Frescatore, Rick Manaco, Dave Allibone, Dave Stock, Dexter Derr.

However, according to Miss Wray, their coach, some of the best tennis she has seen in four years was played this year in a match against Shippensburg. The team played well and with a few breaks could have finished with a plus instead of a minus. With only Ann McMunn graduating, the Huskies could improve on their standing next year. ■ iJ v V! 165 166 167 Track anrj Field v viV. ' 168 The track team, gave Coach Puhl his 100th career coachmg victors in varsity track competition. Coach Puhl, who also handled the cross country team, will leave the head track slot to take over the reins of the BSC football program. Whoever takes over Puhls slot will find a good group of young men to work with and a strong win- ning tradition. We wish him and Coach Puhl the best of luck and hope the track team can improve on its 13-2 record of this year. f . 169 170 171 Men ' s Tennis 172 The mens tennis team posted an outstanding year this year as they went undefeated during the fall and then lost onK tuo matches in the spring.

The team was only able to post two wins in their trying season. The Huskies lost several one run games which added to their woes. Hopefully next year their future will appear brighter, especially since there are some young members of the squad, who with a year of seasonmg could be ready to help the cause. - .« -% W Wl !.«« 175 ' ■ 1 n Art of Photography ■™ ' ™— ™   ,-. -. ,  ,.«■ .«n« a« .■•■-««; a. . ■ . f . •V ( } % w f I ; ' J h 111 -r 1 1 1 ' fi .V ' tj£ 1 ' 1 R ' ■ ( V «•;( ' II V : i ' i( tiirt ' s by George Scarince and Al Paglialunga. 178 J- ' 179 ixissa .. .---. lit v ' : i- i ' ..«4fi ,■ ■;■ vt ' .« : ?kv - ' V • ' iiiriii riiijst ■1 ' N?

It was a dull year, for some students. Conversely, many other students found 1976 to be a year totally unlike all the others at BSC. In an age when apathy on college campuses reached its peak Bloomsburg students did not teel it necessary to go along with the nation-wide trend. Many issues on both the state and local level were dealt with by students who refused to be taken advantage of by the svstem and those who control it. Retrenchment of faculty and services headed the list of student concerns. Along with retrenchment, misappropriations of state funds lead to greater student participation in the Commonwealth Association of Students, a lobbying group for the State Colleges and University. Voter registration drives convinced almost 1,500 students of the necessity of showing student strength. When the County Commissioners refused to send registrars to the campus, CCA vans took the role of shuttles to the courthouse. However, the question of where students priorities rest was apparent when it took free t-shirts to get students to come out of their dorms and apartments to go register. When voting in the primary arrived, 73% of all those registered came out to cast their ballots, even though no prizes were offered. Off-campus housing, health services, tripling, a lawyer for students, and the hottest CCA election ever experienced were all important issues upon which action was taken in 1976. Much was accomplished, the right steps were taken, but many problems could not be resolved in one year ' s time. Students became aware of the threat posed to the State College System, which came in the form of the Governors Report and the Kies Memorandum. Both leaned toward the destruction of the state colleges, but students worked to stop any action from taking place. Retrenchment was partially halted, but total security of students and faculty was never achieved. The political theme of 1976 was culminated in the Simulated Convention. Even though Mo Udall won, a strong political message was delivered by the delegates committed to Hunter S. Thompson The media chose to ignore his second place showing; those who participated in the convention were made aware of the meaning behind Thompson ' s candidacy. Politics was the way of life at Bloomsburg State College in 1976. The realiza- tion came through that involvement in politics was the only way to save the college and the education received at BSC. - Barb Fahey 270 Editor ' s Message A yearbook is eternal. It grows in value as time passes. To be a part ot a yearbook, watching it grow page by page, to have a part of yourself and your creative cirive captured fore er, is a tremendous ex- perience. Working on a book such as the Obiter has a matur- ing effect. We who made the book must live forever with both our good ideas and our mistakes. This book, like the school and the people who make up the school, is not perfect. Perfection is always hoped for, but rarely comes to pass. However, I feel this book is unique in comparison to previous yearbooks produced at Bloomsburg State Col- lege. I must now give thanks to those v ho, through their time and effort, helped give the 1976 Obiter the uniqueness necessary to make it successful: To Matti Prima, Stan Toczek, and the CCA for giving me the funds which make this edition of the Obiter special m BSC ' s history. To my staff who tried, learned, and added a piece of themselves to this book. And even though we only get to know each other so late, I am looking forward to working with them again next year. To Mr. Kenneth Hoffman for enlightening me to things of which I was not aware, helping me more than he imagined. To Elvn, Nancv, and Mary for putting up with my rantings, rasings, and general insanit when things went wrong. To Al, Wavne, and all the darkroom inhabitants for being a neat bunch of people who came through when I needed them. To Mike Gilroy for being an open honest sales representative and friend. And special thanks to Bob O ' Brien for giving me, through his teachings, the opportunity to do the work I love best. Once again, thank you. I know this book won ' t please everyone. But it is as It IS And I like it. Barbara J. Fahey Editor-in-Chief 1976 Obiter 271 M •4  - m - t-- Ms. •flF J- SS I -Sit: 1 fi ii fZr k
