SCC changes hands Wed.; Culligan out, McNamara in
By Kim Wilkinson
News Editor
The new SCC executive committee
will take office Wednesday night after
the SCC Senate meeting.
The new officers, elected November
8, are John McNamara, president;
Brian Lane, vice-president; Joe Skar-bowski, PUB administrator; Bob
Cochrane, treasurer, Karin Hammler,
recording secretary and Stephanie
Shelly, corresponding secretary.
McNamara, president-elect's first
goal is to get the SCC out of the "entanglement" of the pending lawsuits,
so his administration can focus on
other campus issues.
McNamara said he would like to
"throw the government back into the

students, where it belongs." He also
sees the possible hiring of a corporate
administrator to help handle such SCC
affairs as money, businesses and inventorus.
McNamara added that one new idea
will be "Alternative '83". This was a
proposal by Skarbowski, newly elected
PUB administrator. "Alternative '83"
will be a series of dances, concerts and
other activities to keep students on
campus during the weekends.
McNamara said these will be events
that "people will want to stay for."
McNamara also has plans of
reinstituting Quiet Wednesday, which
may be held off-campus, with
transportation provided.
There are no definate plans for

replacing the cultural affairs and social
committee chairmans as of yet,
although some interest has been expressed in each area, according to
McNamara. And, he said there is still a
possibility of a spring concert, as long
as the SCC would be able to "break
even."
When asked to comment on her
short term as president, Karen Culligan
said she was most pleased with the
renovations that have taken place in
the PUB. She said she "felt the PUB
should have a nice atmosphere for the
students."
She said as president this semester
she just tried to keep things going while
further developing the student government and activities.

Finals are approaching

studying

A hush came over the campus,
as yesterday, around the clock
quiet hours were enacted in most
dormitories, because of finals
which officially begin Saturday.
Finals week is not only nerve
wracking for students, but also for
the professers who must have all
grades recorded by 3:30 December
23rd.
C a f e t e r i a workers easily
become the brunt of students
frustration.
The Rolaids boxes in the
bookstore cannot be filled fast
enough to keep up with the demand.
Maintenance crews go crazy
sweeping up the cigarette butts

smoked in a fit of nervousne&s and
thrown carelessly on the floor.
Psychologists say that the holiday season is the worst time of
year for many because of the
deperssion associated with it. A
college student can truly relate to
this.
Besides having to worry about
whether they have gotten a
Christmas present for their Aunt
Tina yet, a college student has to
face the tests which may decide
whether they pass the course of
not.
Sigmund
Freud
viewed
adolesence as a time of storm and
stress. Finals week can be as
psychologically dangerous as
adolescence.

UAA helps with books and rides

News Editor
Two new services are being provided
for the students by the Undergraduate
Alumni Association (UAA), according
to Karin Van Deun, director of alumni
affairs.
The first service is the used book service. The UAA has provided a sign-up
<* table in Bentley Lounge for students to
list their used books in specific subject
f areas. Along with the book, students
should list their name and phone
number. Next semester the lists will be
available and students can discuss a
price on a one-to-one basis.
The other service being provided is
the rides/riders needed. A new map

has been placed in the stairway leading
to the cafeteria, which has been sectioned off. Anyone who needs a ride or
riders should visit the UAA office in
Bentley Hall to have a yellow card
posted on the map.
As students walk by, they should
stop to look for rides or riders in their
area.
Van Deun said the UAA is trying to
bring organization to the normally
chaotic systems.
The UAA recently presented Pam
Stackhouse and Lisa Fontanes each
with a 200 dollar scholarship. To be
eligible a student must be an active
member of the UAA for one year and
be in good academic standing.

Commentary /Announcements

Dear Editor:
After reading Mr. Eberle's article
in response to the need.for an
assistant coach In wrestling, a
thought dawned on me: What
about the future of tracl(?
1 realize that our w r e ^ i n g team
is very good and the program is a
strong one, being a Division I team,
i have great admiration and
respect for Mr. Turner and all the
wrestlers, so tfiis letter is in no way
attacking their sport or program
From what I understand, this
school plans on hiring a full time
coach for assistant wrestling and
head track and field positions.
Granted, our wrestling team could
use an assistant to help coaching,
but what of the track team:
1. Will we have one coach for
track and field? Both men and
women? Come now Eberle, all
those events coached properly by
one man for men and women?
Amazing! Must be one helluva
man!
2. When does wrestling officially
end, and do you think there will be
no conflict if t>oth seasons are occurring at the same time? That I'd

Dear Editor:
As many of us are aware, the
number of credits required for a
student to have in order to move
off campus is 96. This number is
way too high, and should be set
lower so that a fair standard is set
for all students involved.
College is the time for students
to grow as individuals separate
from their parents. While freshmen
may still be a bit young to move off
campus, it is not fair to require
sofifhomores and juniors, who have
lived in the dorms for a year, to remain in the residence halls without
having the option to move off campus. Most of the sophomjpres and
Juniors are responsible enough to
handle the off campus situation,
and are being treated as children
in the matter.
It appears to me that the college
has set this requirement for the
sole p u r p o s e of g e n e r a t i n g

like to see.
3. Will all meets be scheduled
with men and women together?
Have you any Idea how long such a
meet could last? if only men or
women have a meet, who will
coach the team home for practice?
Speaking of being home on our
own track, have you ever run on it
-competitively or even for practice? Such horrendous conditions!
A reason why we did not have any
honle meets; athletes from other
schools were too embarrassed to
be seen on it!
Since 1979 we have had three
different coaches at the head position, and now in 1982 another new
coach why? Do you realize the
talent In this college wasted
because athletes are discouraged
by the track program? I've seen
better programs in high school.
Can this poor track program (as I
see it) result in a short-handed
cross-country team, and cause
track to become a club? I am eager
for any response and if I am wrong,
jslease correct me.

revenue from room and board fees.
The students are being used. We
are old enough to vote, and we are
old enough to fight in wars. Why
does the administration feel that
we are not old enough to live on
our own?
These requirements set by the
administration are unjust. The
rights of LHSC students are being
infringed upon and we should not
sit back and let this happen. I urge
all students to do something about
the situation. If you would like to
move off campus but are not being
permitted to do so because of the
96 credit requirememt, speak up
and express your views to the administration. Perhaps some day
soon a just system w i l l be
established to control off campus
residence.

WHEATIE SPEAKS
By Bill Wortman
Guest Colunnist
Wheatie speaks t>efore time
runs out; finals are on the way!
Most seniors would say, " i need
this grade to graduate." Most
juniors would say, "Well, at least I
have one more year to correct my
mistakes, or maybe I'll go an extra
semester." The sophomore will tell
you, "Everything is cool," while the
freshman expresses total discomfort, whatever the comment.
Personally, after four years I've
learned that finals can make or
break a good grade. If you sum up
this semester you can enter finals
in three probable situations:
1. You have an A in a class and
the final will be a breeze.
2. You have an average grade of B
or C, and the final grade doesn't
make much of a difference.
3. You have a D or E and the final
decides whether you pass or fail.
All you have to do is decide
which category you fall into and
plan your time for studying each
individual subject accordingly.
Rememljer B's and C's require the
least amount of studying, while

All Students, Faculty: Homebound for
the Holidays? REACH OUT AND
TOUCH SOMEONE! The Admissions
department has prepared information
packets for you to take home with you
to have available for potential
L.H.S.C. students. Each residence hall
director has a supply as well as the Admissions Office. Please pick one up
and pass it on.

D's and E's require the most. An A
going into a final usually remains
an A through self confidence.
The biggest worry for all of us is
time! Anxiety can definitely run
rampant this last week. Don't get
down on yourself though, any
backgammon player can tell you,
"it's time for double sixes." Finals
can be a roll of the dice, but tiard
work with good concentration is a
belter pair.
Party People will just have to
wait until next semester, unless
partying and studying can be combined. The only people who can
party this last week are the
unhuman types. Don't kid yourself,
eat well, study hard, and when
Christmas comes along we can all
tap a keg with our families.
Keep the beaners to a minimum!
Remember chocolate or coffee can
provide the energy to study
without the massive anxiety you
get from caffine pills and amphetamines. Damn the partying,
full speed ahead, and for the
apathetic minority, damn the finals
and party hardy! Good luck all!

Buckwalter, Peterson take titles at Mat- Town
By Kevin Campbdl
Sports Editor
The Lock Haven State wrestlers, led
by first place finishes by Doug
Buckwalter and Rick Peterson, placed
fifth in their Mat-Town, U.S.A. tournament held Saturday and Sunday in
Thomas Field House.
The Bald Eagles were just outpointed by Pennsylvania Conference
foe Slippery Rock State for the fourth
place spot, but placed far behind tournainent champion Michigan State. The
Spartans, who were runners-up to
Penn State a year ago, avenged that
loss to the Lions by out pointing them
by five and a half points. The
Volunteers of Tennessee placed third,
three points behind the Nittany Lions.

Buckwalter, a 158 pound junior who
placed second in the tournament last
year, had to come from l}ehind to
register a victory over Michigan State's
Mike Sargis. The bout ended in an 8-8
knot, and a two point nearfall in the
overtime period saved the victory for
Buckwalter. The 1981 NCAA national
qualifier made it to the finals by
defeating Penn State's Brad Houk,
Steve Leffler of Ohio University, and
West Chester's second seeded Mike
Moyer.
Peterson also finished second in last
year's tournament. The Sophomore
heavyweight pinned his first two opponents, slippery Rock's Chris Knapp
and Shippensburg's Bill Damiano. A

Lady Eagles drop first
By Dave Prusak
Eagle Eye Staff
The shooting of the Lock Haven
State College (LHSC) women's basketball team was colder than the weather
outside Thursday night as the team
dropped its first decision of the season,
75-56 to Shippensburg State.
The Lady Eagles were in the game
for the greater part of the first half, but
costly turnovers hurt them. The
Raiderettes from Shippensburg didn't
shoot much better than LHSC at the
outset, but eventually they found the
range.
LHSC center Helen Woltman
dumped in eight first half points from
underneath. The outside shooting by
Mary Endsley, Stacey Cunningham,
and Julie McNee led Shippensburg to
break away 33-22 at the half.

Twice in the second half the Lady
Eagles pulled to within four points.
Teresa Martin hit a short jumper in the
lane with 11:30 remaining to cut the
Shippensburg lead to 45-41. Sandy
Miller's jumper two minutes later
brought the 'Haven' to within 49-45.
But it was the torrid shooting of game
high scorer Stacey Cunningham down
the stretch that led the Raiderettes to
what turned but to be a rout in the end.
Cunningham, who was presented the
game ball with less than three minutes
remaining for scoring her l(X)Oth point,
was game high scorer with 31 points.
She was aided by McNee and Endsley
who scored 19 and 16 respectively.
On what turned out to be a very
frigid night for Lock Haven, Woltman
hit for 12 points and Tina Martin
struggled for 10.

The Lady Eagle swimming team
entered Saturday's triangular meet
against Mansfield State and York College with the hopes of winning their
first meet of the season, and came
away with two victories as they swept
the meet in Zimmerli Pool by wide
margins. Lock Haven scored an 86-40

York by an 83-56 count.

As the Christmas season approaches, spirit is shown in various
ways. Many dormitories on campus are
holding door decorating contests. This
is an excellent way to illustrate one's
Christmas spirit.
Themes of the doors are widespread:
from Religious, to humorous, and
landscapes to name just a few, along
with the gift-package look.
Some students have become quite

elaborate in their decorations. Some of
the doors are three dimension with
electric lights to even further accent
their doors.
According to Eileen O'Donnell,
president of Gross Hall council. Gross
Hall is sponsoring a door decorationg
contest "to get people actively involved
in the Christmas spirit through dormitory activities." O'Donnell said the
hall council wanted to encourage
decorating the normally drab dormitory halls.
