An open letter to those who care
To all people (without exception to the
trees and the stars and the clouds) at
Penn State Hazleton:
There are times in all of our lives
when we have to make crucial deci
sions. My name is Gregoiy Hochman
and I have just made one of these
Things to do. ..

the effort will be rewarded.
A student might think that he or she,
only being one person, is ineffectual On
the contrary, everyone's opinions count.
The complaints of a few are mirrored in
many others.
If all unite into one and submit an
idea as a group, it must be heard. The
administration cannot deny a large
body, but it can overlook a few.
The best ways to submit complaints
and ideas is through the student govern
ment. The members of this bocty have
the most pull with the college, so they
are the best people to contact.
Faculty and staff listen to what the
students say. In all, ideas must be
formed and submitted as a whole. With
cooperation, this campus can become a
fun place to stay on a weekend.

decisions. I have decided to take a
stand, to state my point of view on the
most alarming issue of our time - in all
of time for that matter. The issue that
could become the most widespread
problem on the face of the earth (if it is
not already). It involves the food that
we eat and the air that we breathe and
all that we need to sustain the most
precious of all functions, LIFE - includ
ing yours and mine!
I feel that the environmental
destruction of our planet is overlooked
by the general public, although there
certainty are quite a number of indivi
duals who share the same feeling as I.
If you agree with what I have stated
then I encourage you to be a part of the
newest, most vibrant club in all the
land, The Highacres Environment Club.
There are several things we want to
accomplish immediately.
The first is raising the consciousness
of the general public's understanding of
everyone's environment. The second of
our initial accomplishments will be to
get people to recycle goods. Other
goals will be discussed at our first
meeting, Thursday, October 4. Time
and place are not yet set. Look for
signs. I hope you will join this club
(remember, "Environment is Key").

by Kevin Newhart
The Society of the Arts will be
performing a comedy revue on Novem
ber 8,9, and 10. It will start at 8 p.m.
and take place in the Commons build
ing. The name of the revue is "The
Benny Velour Show,” and it is a
compilation of skits, songs, and parodies
written and acted entirety by students:

man, Scott Hnasko, Mike Hoff,

Other people involved in the produc
tion include Jim Godiska, lighting and
sound, Richelle Frank, costumes and
props, and Tony Kraemer, make-up.
If the production is anything like the
writing sessions, the show will be a
success. Members of the club get
together in a small room and let their
creativity flow. They improvise, sing, do
impersonations, and even break into
comedy acts. It’s from these sessions
that their best ideas emerge.
According to Hnasko,
accident, and silliness.”
They build on to other member’s
ideas, making fun of and what deserves
to be made fun of and what people
want to be made of. The result is a
well-written comedy show which you're
sure to enjoy.
“The Benny Velour Show" will be
open to the public but warns that there
are some adult themes and material
Tickets will be sold in advance by
contacting the Society of the Arts, and
according to Mike Jesky, "If the show is
a success, we may try to take it on the
road to other Penn State campuses or
even to professional theaters.”
