Author Speaks at “The best writing is based on personal experience,” said Herbert Wisby Thursday afternoon to an audience of 40 in the Arthur A. Houghton Library. Mr. Wisby, a past professor of CCC, is the author of “Mark Twain in Elmira”. The book is an informative collection of memorabilia of Twain’s life in the area. The author spoke on other historical issues, such as the past Indian ‘ life around the Seneca Lake region; the Gyganoa Valley that surrounds Keuka Lake; also some epi- taphs from several old ceme-taries of this area. Mr. Wisby noted that epitaphs provide an interesting source for creative writing. Also, “Talking to people is a great way of finding something to write about.” He then gave some good advice on how to get fiction stories published. “There are two ways to achive this. One is to send the story to a newspaper, and the other is through an historical society. He added, “Be sure to send it in a self-addressed envelope.” As to criticizing your work? The author remarked, “The to persuade them to begin or resume payments. A loan is classified as defaulted at the point when the guarantor pays off the lender. In the New York State Guaranteed Student Loan Program, HESC is the guarantor and the loans are made by banks and other private lending institutions. Concern has been expressed nationwide with rising default rates both in the federal government’s National Direct Student Loan Program (NDSL), the Federally Insured Student Loan Program (FISL), and in the state-guaranteed loan programs, which are financed to large degree with federal money. New York has the largest Coupon There is a new opportunity to save money! We now have a “COUPON EXCHANGE” box installed at the entrance to the Main Dining Room. Coupons are for foods, cleaning supplies, soaps, etc. clipped from news- loan program of any of the states. The corporation’s program started in 1958 and has guaranteed 1.9 million loans to about 1 million students with total value of $2.3 billion. In fiscal 1977-78, loan activities of HESC showed rapid growth, with 235,950 loans guaranteed, having a value of $415,751,078. The figures increased over 1976-77 by 31.5 per cent in number of loans and 60.3 per cent in dollars. Both figures are all-time records. Reasons for the rapid growth include the climb of tuition and other charges at the colleges, and changes in the maximum amounts students may borrow in a given year.

At the moment A & P has a “double coupon” sale where er change contributing to growth, at the federal level, has been the raising of income limits for loan-subsidy eligibility. During the fiscal year about 16,000 loans went into default and were purchased from lenders by HESC. The lenders in this case receive the full payment and interest due. Purchase of the loans cost $34.3 million, and the state is reimbursed for most of this amount by the federal government. Students may borrow up to $2,500 a year for undergraduate study, and up to $5,000 a year for graduate study. The total amount that can be borrowed is $7,500 for undergraduate students and $15,000 for (Con’t. on page 7) Initiated you can get credit for twice the value of the coupon if you purchase that item.

Library Open Extra Hours Now CCC students who may want to utilize the college library after regular school hours to study for exams now have the opportunity to do so, according to a schedule of extended hours for the Arthur A. Houghton Library and Learning Resource Center. Announcing the schedule, Dean of Student Services Jack Kelley said, “We are trying to provide a quiet study atmo-spere that will allow students to more successfully complete the test and courses they are enrolled in. If they have a quiet place to go two weeks before finals, they can more positively complete their study.” Beginning May 8 and running through May 24, the College Library will be open as follows: Monday through Thursday, 8:00 am to 9:00 Friday, 8:00 am to 6:00 pm; Saturday, 9:00 am to 6:00 pm; and Sunday, 12 noon to 9:00 pm. Irwin S. Stein, Library Director, said library personnel will be on hand to assist students with reference materials and other resources. Skills Competition Held On Tuesday, April 25, the Office Administration Department of the Business Administration Division of Corning Community College hosted its first area high school skills competition. CCC greatest thing anyone can do is to criticize your work. Because that way, it can help you.” The author concluded his talk with several tips for writing history such as “Mark Twain in Elmira.” Start looking for all the available information in print: documents, census records, and artifacts. Also, visit that particular area you want to write about. You have to be there, to get the feel of it. Mr.Wisby teaches “Your Family in American History” at Elmira College. His forthcoming book is about the historical aspects of Japan. Schools represented were C-PP East, Elmira Southside, Horseheads, Notre Dame, and Williamson.

Reimanis On Alienation 2 THE CRIER, THURSDAY, MAY 4, 1978 Here! This is a parable my father told me when I was young; Once, very long ago, a group in New England was very worried about world over-population and its sister problem starvation. They hit upon an effective idea, what they called “Selective Cannibilism”. As the population of New England declined it came to the attention of a reporter on the Boston Star by the name of Dennis Love. Now Dennis wasn’t taken too seriously at the B.S., in fact everybody was sure he was incompetent ever since he tripped over his typewriter. Dennis’s editor gave him the cannible assignment mainly because there was no one else who wanted to take it. They really didn’t think he could handle it and they told Dennis so. Well, Dennis Knew his limitations but with help and support he believed he could handle the story. However, help and support was not forthcoming. His editors, believing him unable to do the work, did nothing to help. They answered his frequent cries for help with reassuring noises which meant nothing and were soon forgotten. As time went on, Dennis found himself trying to paddle upstream without a paddle. It was practically impossible to do his story without help and the constant negatism was beginning to affect his self image. However, he had to much pride to say; “Yes I am incompetent. I’m terribly sorry I even tried.” So as a last ditch stand to prove his worthiness, he went undercover to infiltrate the cannible organization. After three months of intensive investigation and living in constant danger, Dennis had all the facts necessary to expose this terrible threat. He called up the city desk to have them send a S.W.A.T. team to rescue him from the heavily fortified cannible headquarters. No one at the Boston Star believed that Dennis could pull off such an investigation. They assumed Dennis was lying to glorify himself. They ignored the call for help. This was Dennis’s last call for help, for he had been discovered. He ended up as the main ingredient in that night’s casserole. This proved what the editors knewsfrom the beginning, for only an incompetent, stumblebum reporter would end up as a casserole. The moral to this parable, “Dennis anyone?” or “Prejudgement can be fatal.” The latter moral is the subject of the remaining bulk of my column. The first one you can ruminate on at your leisure. Everybody prejudges. Even the most saintly of us cannot help but have a little prejudice. The buying of a Ford over a Pontiac just because the Ford’s a Ford, is an example of prejudging.. Most of what is normally considered Racism is, in fact, prejudice. Most of the prejudging we do in our lifetimes is harmless. In fact a lot of it is useful. One does not pet a strange Dober- man Pincher as we have prejudged his reaation to such attention. People don’t eat wild mushrooms, walk in Central Park at night, or join bullet catching competitions. In the end there is no cure for prejudice, people will always judge by appearance, hearsay, and sundry other methods without dealing with a person as a person. We can only treat the symptons. In other words, prejudge but take the time to prove yourself wrong. byes are said. This is the end of the Crazy Times. Summer is the healing bath. Some students will go on to do battle with other beasts. Some will stay to bury the remains of of this one. All are changed. Some bear scars, others have grown, one thing is sure, Crazy Times will come again. Crazy Times are Welcome to the crazy time friends. Crazy Time, those weeks in Spring when the academic year takes its last, dying gasps. Its in these weeks that Winter fades away and Spring comes into its glorius own. Clothes bound students suddenly find a sunny freedom in beautiful outdoors. There’s a catch though. Amid this sudden fantastic freedom there looms the all but dead carcass of the academic year. This monster still has potent venom in him. With one sweep of his finals he could still destroy an unwary victim. The beast’s malicious eyes roam, his evil brain scheming of ways to take the pleasure out of these last weeks of warmth and sun. He may pounce upon some poor sophmore with the information that sophmores are not graduating due to program mixups. The beast’s academic requirements may drip with the blood of a freshman forced to retake English 106. Dying as the academic year may be he won’t go out alone. Yet students fight this growing monstrosity with kites and frisbees. In self defiance they forge an armor of craziness. Frovolity is their creed and nonsense their world. Pinballs clash with a renewed fervor and parties get wild before drinks are served. Stress and worry are consumed and forgotten. Worry is grey and stress is cold, two things unsuitable for the warm blue days of spring. Obviously the devil demands his due so exams are studied for. The daily routine of college is still with us. Classes are attended. The CRIER still sputters along its uneven course, Student Government squabbles on. But even amid routine a new liveliness is noted. Students get fiesty in class. A new Executive Board reigns in Student Government. The CRIER has ®fjru$t anb $arrp sprouted puns and cartoons. Signs of life abound within the end of the year driftwood. Students begin to take walks on the Nature Trail for the sole purpose of enjoying nature. The weather is no longer cursed but enjoyed. Arguments are resolved and year old feuds mended. How can people fight and feud when nature is rejoicing in itself? The end of the crazy time comes with the final death of the academic year. With its finals curled up and its academic standards closed the beast lies in state. The funeral is brief but the wake lasts for weeks. Parties erupt. Big parties, small parties, wild parties and wilder parties. The armor of craziness is smelted down into pure enjoyment of self and one’s fellows. T the weapons of frivolity and nonsense are beaten into fun and games. Beer flows and green smoke arises. Love is given and good- By JOHN T. OLCOTT Editor-In-Chief You Won't Understand This nadiela By DANIEL E. ALOI Managing Editor Uncommon Sense These days, as winter gracefully yields (at least) to the rebirth of Spring, and final exams are but three weeks away, I feel very, very tired. What kind of world is this where the whole mess of arms races and territorial treaty disputes can be attributed to man’s insatiable greed? The sad part is, greed can not be universally abated. What good is the possession of enough nuclear weaponry to annihilate the earth and its satellite many times over? I’m sure once would suffice. How many times does a man have to be browbeaten before he capitulates to his tormentors? Nixon lasted seven months. Some of us suffer other types of harassment, though. In the long run, most of us survive. Most of us. Pity those who don’t. It seems to me that many people on this campus have a hard time understanding what CCC really is. My only distinction is that between the physical campus, buildings and classrooms; and the spiritual entity of the college--a body of knowledge and the administration of the knowledge. The former is NOT a college without the latter. When the body of knowledge is disregarded for the sake of the personal gains of its administrators, then the real college disintegrates among the political pap. A good analogy to use here would be a desanctified church that no longer stands on holy ground. I don’t think my sadness over the loss of CCC’s integrity is all in vain. But then again, if it’s possible to be too concerned, I am. - I suspect that this column is becoming either my personal forum for mental masturbation, or the publicized meanderings of a semi-perspicacious mind. I wonder if the high percentage of CCC alumnae who have defaulted on student loans says something about the typical CCC students? But I’m being unfair. The wrong-doers were here many moons ago, and the present-day student may be a different breed altogether. I hope so. I’d hate to think a lot of my friends will try to screw Uncle Sam in a few years. Is hate mail a proper solution to bidden rage? Or would bodily harm be a suitable out? If you’re wondering what this means, forget it. It’s too involved. But that’s enough about me. Tell me, how was YOUR week? THE CRIER, THURSDAY, MAY 4, 1978 3 'The Germans are Not to Blame1 To the Editor: While I agree with the theory behind John Olcott’s editorial concerning “Holocaust”, I feel one point must be debated upon. Stating that Hitler could not have done what he did “without the help and support of the German people,” is a gross generalization, and an injustice to those not involved. It also directs all responsibility away from other nations who, despite any knowledge they may had of the murders, failed to protest. To put all the blame on the German people is unfair. Germans honestly did not realize what was happening. The series “Holocaust,” made clear that the secrecy which sur-rouded the extermination camps for Jews. Many others who did realize what was happening, though not directly involved, only feared for their lives. Though not very commendable on their part, can any of us be sure we would act any different? One of the major reasons for Germany applauding Hitler was what he did do for Germany. He took a war-torn, disorganized nation, and aided in modernizing and industrializing it. Had the post World War I Treaty of Versailles not been so devastating to the Germans, Hitler may not have been able to capitize on the situation. Futhermore, the Jews in Germany were Jewish citizens. Certainly they did not support their own destruction! I direct the blame for the murder of six million innocent people to Hitler, his select group of killers, and those who met the matter with indifference. Not the German society as a whole. 1 also inject another idea for thought. Why do we continue to ignore at-trocities which exist today? Though it may lack the magnitude of the Nazi cruelties, how about the hundreds of thousands who have been slaughtered in Idi Amin’s Uganda?

I thought I’d write you a letter to give my brain something to do and use up any extra space you might have in your award-winning newspaper. Congratulations to Dorothy on her election to secretary of Student Government. I noticed she carries on the tradition of healthy young ladies in the position. The one thing that made going into the Student Government office an enjoyable occasion this semester was the possibility of resting my eyes on Gretchen. Do you believe this paraquat epiosde? First the U.S. Government gives the Mexican government money to buy U.S. defoliant to wipe out the Mexican marijuana crop. So people start dying from smoking the marijuana, and people start screaming and hollering at the U.S. government for allowing this to happen. Let’s be real. The culprits in this drama are the Mexican dealers. They know their marijuana has been sprayed. My suggestion is that we organize ourselves a posse and hunt down those varmints and give ’em what for. So remember, as your news announcer on WCL1 said, “Don’t smoke Mexican marijuana”. Wasn’t that movie “Holocaust” a total heavy? I keep hearing “it can’t happen again.” Well, people, I have news for you. It is happening again and it’s happening right now. “The Gulag Archi-polago” by Al Solzhenytzin tells you the true story of the Russian prison system, (Calm down, Ric). After watching that movie, I realize why the Israelis are such a feisty little nation. I read a book where Israel ended up a major power in the world. It was a pretty good book. I just had something wet stuck in my ear. It’s attached to a particle of Polynesian pulchritude by the name of Noui. She says she wants to talk to me about speaking in tongues. I’ve gottago.

Kansas Exam Policy Violated Lawrence, Kan. (I.P.) Complaints about violations of the new final exam policy that prohibits University of Kansas instructors from giving a final exam during the last week of classes have evoked administrative advice about how students can handle the abuses. Ron Calgaard, vice-chancellor for academic affairs, said students first should go to the department chairman and dean of the school. “If there is still a problem, they can come to me and I’ll make sure the policy is not being violated,” he said. The thairman of the University Senate Calendar Committee, Harold Krogh, said, “1 don’t think a professor can tell another professor how to run his class, but I think Dr. Calgaard has the authority to enforce the policy.” Besides prohibiting early final exams, the new policy also prohibits unit examinations from being given during the last week of classes unless a comprehensive final examination also is required in the course. Administrators voiced concern that finals week was underused because of the many early exams being given by instructors. In November, 1976, the Calendar Committee proposed that the University finals schedule be rotated. For example, a final for a 9:30 MWF class on the last day of finals week one semester might be on the first day the next semester. The rotating schedule, ultimately approved by the University Senate, was designed to spread out the finals. Ombudsman William M. Balfour, former vice-chancellor for student affairs, said he thought there were several reasons for the policy violations. “1 think the major reason is both students and faculty want to get through with exams earlier than they are scheduled to.” He said instructors were concerned about getting their grades in before the deadline, Monday after finals, “Pm sure that the instructors must know about the policy, ” Balfour said. “I think a lot of them think if it’s okay with their students, it’s okay with the policy.” The CRIER would like to announce that all editorial board and paying positions are open. The editorial board positions include Editor in chief, Managing Editor, Sports, Photography and Layout Editor.

The public is invited to attend this free program. Mrs. Curran noted that though British born Clive Barnes fulfilled his life’s ambition when he became dance critic for the New York Times in 1965, he had a distinguished career before coming to this country’ Barnes, in fact, had been interested in becoming a critic at the age of 14 and at 18 chose the dance as his field of specilaization. While attending Oxford he was associated with the ballet club. Later, he wrote reviews for leading London Newspapers and served as the London Correspondant for dance magazine and the New York Times before joining the regular Times staff in 1965. In September 1967, he became both drama and dance critic for the influential newspaper. Barnes, who is world reknown for his fluency and wit, is sure to offer the public a sparkling evening of entertainment. CRIER Applications Taken Now ’til May 26 THE CRIER, THURSDAY, MAY 4, 1978 5 Counselor Kinley Will Be Missed Dayna Kinley For all of you who know counselor Dayna Kinley or would like to know her, or for thoses who are supposed to see Dayna, do so before the end of the semester. These last few weeks of the semester are her final weeks, for it is time for a change in Dayna’s life for both educational and personal reasons. Dayna’s plans for the future are going back to school to become a licensed marriage counselor. Dayna was born Sept. 26, 1944 in Lewis, Delaware, and moved to Elmira in 1951 at the age of 7. She attended elementary school at Hendy Avenue School and graduated from Elmira Free Academy. After high school, she received her Associate of Art&JJegree in Liberal Arts at Centenary College for Women in New Jersey. She graduated from Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas, with her Bachelor of Science Degree in guidance and counseling at the University of Tennessee. Dayna worked four years with the Elmira City School District as a teacher, counselor, and a public relations coordinator. For a year and a half she lived on the island of St. Maarten in the Netherland Antilles working as a secretary, a bookkeeper, and in a boutique. For the past four years, Dayna has been a general counselor in the science building for Corning Community College. She has dealt with personal, referral, career-vocational, and aca- demic counseling. Dayna has really enjoyed working with students in a helping capacity and is assured that many students have benefited from her counseling. Since her first year here, the respect she has been given on campus by faculty and students has been very rewarding in building up her confidence. Dayna has served on numerous search committees, is a member of the Academic Standards Committee, and is presently co-chairman of the Faculty Association Social Committee. She has taught learning skills and Achievement Motivation. Her only frustrations with her job is working with people who make their life harder than it really is. A change she like to see, although selfish, is to have Ann Cohn return as Director of Counseling.

Despite the way she looks, Spring CCC administration officials are considering quarantining the entire campus for the next four weeks to prevent the spreading of Spring Fever which has already claimed the lives of a large percentage of students and threatens to annihilate the entire student body if unchecked. There is no known antidote to the disease. The deadly effects of the epidemic have reached such proportions that corpses of victims are being found all over the campus. Bodies have been found lying lifeless in the sun, motionless, sprawled at desks before open windows, and others with their eyes open staring at textbooks in the li- Teen Family The ETF is a group of young people who write and produce short plays that mean something to them personally and communicate their feelings to the audience.

Underwood Fever brary and various labs. Symptoms of the Fever include inability to concentrate, shedding of clothing induced by rising body temperature, and a feeling of being suffocated inside classrooms. Students are urged to remain in classrooms as much as possible to avoid possible contamination of the Fever virus which thrives in the warm sunshine. Administration officials reluctantly admitted that they are considering disciplinary action against an unnamed professor who admits having been infected with the Fever since Christmas Break and who is undoubtedly responsible for contamination of the entire campus. ’ Refreshing most young people-family pressures, social mores, abortion, adolescent sexuality. Though the subject matter ain’t new by any means, the ETF approach is certainly refreshing. There were no Sunday school euphemisms, only frank contemporary language.

Interest is charged the student while he is in school only if his family’s adjusted income exceeds $25,000. (The income figure is obtained from, federal gross adjusted income, reduced by 10 per cent and further reduced by $750 for each family exemption.) For students with family income of $25,000 to $29,999, in-school interest is 3 per cent. For students of higher income, interest is 7 per cent. Where the student is paying less than 7 per cent, a subsidy from federal or state funds makes up the difference to the lender. Within four months after completing his studies, a borrower must make a repayment agreement with the lender, and repayment must begin within nine months after completion of studies. During repayment all borrowers pay 7 per cent interest on the unpaid balance. Maximum time for repayment varies from 30 to 120 months, depending on the totaj owed. Lenders, in addition to the 7 per cent interest, receive a special allowance, adjusted quarterly according to the prevailing interest rates. The allowance is 3-1/8 per cent at present. This brings the gross yield to lenders on all student loans to 10-1/8 per cent. The $7.4 million collected on defaulted loans in 1977-78 thus amounts to more than 20 per cent of the defaulted loans 'Teen Family’ Refreshing (Con’t. from page 5) ed first by a dancer who gave a lyrical interpretation of a recent ballad, followed in sharp contrast by a scene showing the confrontation of their involved parents of the pregnant girl and accused young man. The ensuing scenes did not lead to a conclusion, but showed how people in the situation act and react. The play concluded with a terrific musical number written by a member (or members) of the ETF. The audience appeared well pleased and this reveiwer certainly was. . A IJtiR 'f Mischief Mime, a mime duo from Ithaca, brought their talents to CCC Wednesday, April 25. Their show was highlighted by adaptions of Aesops Fables. Mischief Mime came to CCC through the efforts of Daytime Entertainment and A.P.C. purchased in the same year. The 20 per cent collection ratio compares with a collection ratio of about 7.5 per cent achieved by the federal government on defaulted student loans in 1977. Of all the loans guaranteed by HESC since 1958, defaults have occurred on 103,000, with total value of $178 million. Of that amount $29 million has been collected subsequent to default. The total of collections of $7.4 million for the final year just ended includes about $60,000 collected by the state attorney general. Defaulted loans that are found uncollect-able by HESC are referred to the attorney general for collection through the courts. Besides its 30-member collections unit, HESC maintains another staff of about 30 who are concerned with averting default of loans that have gone into arrears. When a lender sends HESC a default claim (normally after the borrower has missed two monthly payments), HESC attempts to get in touch with the borrower to advise that his credit rating is being jeopardized, and to persuade him to get in touch with the lender to arrange to resume payments. If this fails, the loan is purchased from the lender, normally in the month following the date of the third missed payment. Under the purchase the lender recovers full principal and interest due. / The HESC default-aversion staff was able in 1977-78 to place 26,000 loans, with value of $59,000,000 back in repayment status. About half of the manpower at HESC, which has a staff of about 500, is devoted to administration of the loan program. The state’s fiscal contribution to the loan program is about $5 million. Application forms for New York State Guaranteed Student Loans, and a brochure explaining the program, are available at banks, and from HESC. Loans are made to students with no requirement of a cosigner. DEADLINE FOR APPLICATION IS MAY5 Coming Community College Florida Group-visit to Spanish-Speaking Area.

Teresa Underhill twirled a brilliant game in the first tilt as the Baronesses thrashed Alfred 16-1. Kathy Donnelly went 3-4 while Ann Hutchinson went 3-5 to lead the Corning onslaught. Martha Milliner played a key role as catcher as she continuo sly gunned down Alfred runners attempting steals. Alfred very seldom moved a runner past first. In the second game the Corning bats weren’t quite so pro- ductive, and Alfred turned the tables with a 10-8 decision. For the second week in a row Corning lost in the seventh inning. Errors- played a big part in CCC’s downfall. Also, starting pitcher Barb Knox generously offered seven free passes to Alfred batters. Corning faced Genessee next and dropped both ends of the doubleheader, 10-3, 23-7. Teresa Underhill had to go the distance both games as Barb Knox had to miss the trip because of school priorities. In the second game, Corning actually led 5-0 in the third, until Genessee brought their ace pitcher back in. She quieted Corning’s bats the rest of the game while Genesee’s offense untracked for 23 runs in the last four innings. Martha Milliner continued her offensive showing as she went 3-3 while Robin Price was 2-3 at the plate. The Baronesses traveled to Niagara next and were tagged for two more losses, 18-10, 18-1, dropping their record to 1-7. Robin Price had a good day at the plate in the first game, going 3-4, while Angela Bartow had the same statistics. Barons Split TC3, Erie The battling baseball Red Barons of Corning Community College split two doubleheaders this past week. On Monday, April 24, the Red Barons took on Tompkins-Cortland at Denison Park. The Red Barons took the opener 4-0 as Tom Tele-hany spaced 7 T.C.3 hits in pitching the shutout to pick up his second victory of the season. The Red Barons jumped to a 1-0 lead in the first inning as Jody Graham scored on the front end of a doublesteal. The Barons added their final 3 runs in the 3rd inning as they drew 3 successive bases loaded walks to force across the 3 runs. The Red Barons could muster only two singles, by Jody Graham and Lanny Brechbuehl, off TC3 starter and loser George Haperson. The nightcap saw the pitching starved Red Barons send Jeff Petersen to the Hill. Peter- Well the end of the year is rapidly approaching and there are only a few more CRIER papers to be released. It is now time to select next year’s editorial board. This year’s board members have to nominate people to replace them. These people will then be voted on by the editor, and if approved, will take over next year. This situation poses a problem for myself. Since no one showed interest in sports writing this year, I have no selections to offer as my replacement. This is a good opportunity for someone interested in writing and sports to practice their skills. Besides learning how to gather information and turn it into an article, it looks good on your record to have ‘sports editor’ under activities. The word editor always impresses people, and this includes employers. Seriously if sen tried, in vain, to silence the TC3 bats. With 2 outs and 5 TC3 runs across the plate, coach Dave Clark, pulled Petersen in favor of Paul Hartsock. Hartsock surrendered another run before CCC got out of the inning. CCC closed the gap to 6-3 on Lanny Brechbuehl’s 3 run home run. Coach Clark used two more hurlers, Dan Short and Jeff Cassada, who were raked for 6 more runs throughout the remainder of the contest. On Wednesday, April 26th, the battling Red Barons tackled top Region III power, Erie CC in a doubleheader at Denison Park. The 1st game saw Jeff Cassada take the hill for CCC. Erie jumped to a 6-2 lead in the 3rd inning. CCC loaded the bases with 2 outs, but Bob Headley flew out to centerfield to end the threat. Erie raked starter Cassada and reliever you, and another joker applied for the same job and had the exact same qualifications, that “sports editor” may get you the job. That’s right; The employer will think that you like to get involved and lead, and that’s a quality they look for. If these benefits don’t excite you because you don’t want to spend valuble partying time, consider this: You will get paid $75.00 a semester for your endeavors. That’s right, 75 bucks for doing something that will benefit you in other ways. It’s a good deal. I know I’ve bitched a lot during the year, but that check at the end of the semester sure helps make it 'worth it. So think about it, and if you want to give it a try, let me or someone on the CRIER staff know. We will be making our selections in a week or so, thus you should contact us soon. Tom Bennett for 6 more runs enroute to the 12-4 victory. Ed Pietock picked up the victory for Erie CC while Cassada took the loss for CCC. Lanny Brechbuehl led the CCC offense with 3 hits while Joe Rima had 2. In the 2nd game, Erie jumped on CCC starter Paul Hartsock for 2 first inning runs. CCC them bombed Erie starter Joe Cardinale for 9 rungs and a 9-2 lead. The highlight of the big inning was a 3 run homer by Tom Telehany, a two run double by Mark Anglehart and a two run single by Bob Scha-grin. Joe Rima’s two run single in the 2nd inning plated the eventual winning runs as Erie scored two runs in the 3rd and 5 more in the 4th before reliever and winning pitcher, Tom Bennett, took over to put out the fire and hurl scoreless ball the rest of the way. Erie filled the bases in the last inning, but a line drive to CCC 2nd sacker Bob Schagrin was turned into a game ending doubleplay. With the double split, CCC’s record now stands at 3-4. ■— CCC CO-ED VOLLEYBALL TOURNAMENT Underdogs over Nooners (15-9) (4-15) (15-3) Stiker’s over Press ware (15-4) (15-0) Sunny’s Spikers over Stikers (15-7) (8-15) (15-13) Press ware over Underdogs (15-3) (15-9) Sunny’s Spikers over Nooners (15-0) (15-2) Sports Editor, Anyone? Teresa Underhill absorbed the loss. Barb Knox pitched excellently the second game but was the victim of numerous mis-cues and a non-existent off-fense. Corning’s bats were almost dorment as they cracked only four safeties, while the fielding was much like a drain, letting everything go through. Corning’s misfortunes have several possible reasons behind them. Most important is that they have no playing field and must travel to all their opponents. This makes it rather hectic on the team, especially getting out of classes with finals approaching. After downfall is that Corning is only in its second year and is facing opponents of regional quality. Monroe, Erie, Onondaga, Niagara, and Genesee will all be in regionals this year, and have vast experience compared to Corning. A final weakspot of Corning’s is facing fast pitchers. The Baronesses can’t practice against-this, and just have trouble facing regional-caliber pitchers. CCC’s bright spots thus far have been Robin Price’s excellent second base play, Nancy Bly, Kathy Donnelly, and Angie Bartow’s outfield play as well as Ann Hutchinson’s playing at shortstop. Also, Martha Milliner is possibly the best catcher in the region.
