school cutbacks

By STEVE HEVERLY
Staff Reporter
Summer school cuts, fraternity housing, and spring
break were the three main
topics
discussed
at
the
sparsely attended Open Presidents Meeting last Thursday
in Ulmer Planetarium.
The first question presented
to President Hamblin inquired
about reasons justifying cuts
in the summer school curriculum. Hamblin stated that all
state schools have been told to
cut back their budgets.
Many schools have done this
by cutting back their faculty,
but Lock Haven did not want to
do this so the low enrollment
in the summer school classes
was a good way to cut back.
Dr. Hamblin also said that
teachers contracts have to be
out by April 1 and whether any
students enroll for that course
or not the professor still gets
paid.
Dr. Gerald Robinson, Vice
President of Academic Affairs,

said, "We have urged the
departments to offer courses
that would be of greatest
interest to the most students."
Dr. Robinson then talked
about the timing of spring
break and said that when
Easter comes late, there is tcx)

justified

much time without a break in
the semester. Also, if Faster
came late in the semester and
there were two weeks of
vacation, when students returned there would only be two
weeks left in the semester and

PCIE offers Mexican studies
By KIM GAZABAT
Staff Reporter
The Pennsylvania Consortium for International Education (P.CLE.) is sponsoring a
summer program to Mexico.
"The studies will be taken at
the newly constructed facilities
of the University of Veracruz,''
said Robert Morris, Professor
of international Studies at
Indiana University, during a
lecture in Ulmer Planetarium,
March 4.
"Jalapa is an extremely
clean city," continued Mr.
Morris. "It is very modern in
parts but still some remnants
of the colonization are also
quite prominent."

He then presented a series
of slides and explanations
which showed the cities highlights. The slides included the
interior of two houses which
will become the living quarters
for two summer students.
"Wc decided that the crosscultural experience of living
with a Mexican family would
prove fo enhance the studies,"
said Mr, Morris.
Mr. Morris reported, "The
cost for this excursion is 845
dollars." This includes round
trip transportation and also
tuition, and room and board
for a six-week session.
There will also be two

Wednesday and Thursday the performing arts join together in a
single individual. Vince Lombardo will appear on the Lock Haven
State College campus this week under the sponsorship of the Lock
Haven Artist Series. Wednesday evening Mr. Lombardo presents
two hours of his pantomime which he performs to a musical
background of Bach, Mahler, Sweelinck, and Scott Joplin.
Thursday morning Lombardo brings his talents to a workshop
session in various areas of performing.
He began his career at an eariy age. The years between his first
backyard performances and his current national appearances as a
solo artist are filled with the study of related arts.
While studying with Arthur Berv of the Manhattan School of
Music he appeared with the New York City Opera Company in
acting roles. While supervising the touring college-circuit
production of "An Evening of Opera" he worked with Hugo
Weisgall, and developed his love for both music and theatre. Later
Lombardo staged a "Shakespeare in Opera" program and
instructed master classes in "Mime" and "Characterization" at
the Pittsburgh Summer Opera Festival and worked with Richard
Flusser from the After Dinner Opera Company. He is presently
assisting director, Dino Yannopoulos of the Metropolitan, at the
Curtis Institute of Music.
Recently Vince Lombardo staged "The Magic Flute" and "The
Tales of Hoffman" at Clarion State College, directed the American
premiere of "The Masquerade" at the Provincetown Playhouse,
worked with the New York City Opera Company, and made a
television appearance as Vespona in the opera "La Serva
Padrona".
He has a vast repertoire of pantomimes which he will chose from
for his 8:00 p.m. Price Auditorium performance and the 11:00 a.m.
Theatre Upstairs workshop. Some include The Toy Shoppe, The
Discotheque, Faustus, Anxiety, a ping-pong match. The Maestro,
A Feast During a Plague, Earthly Life, and The Porno Shoppe.
Tickets for Wednesday evening's production are available in
advance free with a validated ID card on the Lower Level PUB or at
the door. Thursday morning's appearance is open to all at no cost.

Thoreau considered pov/erful productionaCorrection:
news brief on an assault in
By WENDY AKELI Y
Staff Reporter
The College Players' presentation of "The Night Thoreau Spent in Jail" by Jerome
Lawrence and Robert E. Lee
was a powerful production.
Kim Coon gave a strong portrayal of Henry David Thoreau. He tended to deliver
many of his lines as if he were
reading them directly to the
audience and to lapse into
stock poses, especially in the
first act. In Act U, however he
talked more to the other characters and gave his listeners a
chance to hear Thoreau as he

related to the people he talked
about. Most of his dialogues,
though, ended in arguments,
and CcHin should have varied
his tone of voice more to prevent them from all becoming
shouting contests. His tone did
change to a markedly softer
one at his brother's funeral,
but when Ellen asked him to
explain John's death, he reverted to boisterous indignation.
Coon's performance was especially notable because he
could hold the stage on his
own and rivet audience attention to him. In a particulariy

strong scene, he confronted
Deacon Ball, played by Dick
Durborow, and told him exactly what he thought of the
strict educational .system he
was forced in. Coon refused to
relinquish his focus to anyone
except Jimmy Akeley, a ten
year old local resident in the
role of Edward Emerson, and
Larry Harris, cast as John
Thoreau, Henry's older brother.
John was a gentle, jovial
contrast to Henry's fieriness,
and Harris played him as an
effective "alter ego." It was

Haven defeats West
Chester for a first
By MARY FEUSNER
Woman's Sports Editor
For the first time in the history of women's varsity basketball at Lock Haven, arch
rival West Chester State College was defeated on the
courts. This event occurred
Friday afternoon in Thomas
Fieldhouse when the Eaglettes forced West Chester to
fall by the way with the score
of 73-58.
Opening game ceremonies
honored senior Pat Ogle who
would be performing in her
last game at Lock Haven.
Roses were presented in recognition other leadership and
accomplishments in the last
four years. The recognition
must have been an inspiration
to Pat, as she went onto the
courts to play her best game of
the season.
Disorganized play marked
the opening minutes of the
game. Neither team could find
its shooting range and put
points on the board. The score
was six-all after five minutes
of play.
West Chester pulled to an
eight point lead at one time before the half, but the Haven
narrowed the gap so that only
three points stood between the
teams at the half. Kathy Landis and Pat Ogle combined for
over half of the Haven's 29
points.
Due to the outside shooting
of Deb Schlegel and Mary
Fleig, Lock Haven went i.p by
six points when only five minutes had elapsed in the second
half.
Despite time outs and
changes in the defense. West
Chester never found the way
to contain Lock Haven as the
Eaglettes went on to win by
the score of 73-58. This win
ended the regular season
schedule on a fine note and
helped to prepare Lock Haven
as they enter the Regionals
tournament this week.
Four Eaglettes hit in the
double figures Fleig and
Schlegel with 16 each. Hacker
with 13 and Ogle with 10. Landis and Hudson added nine
each to complete the fcoring.
West Chester's Cerino had 13

for the losing cause.
The West Chester junior
varsity came to Lock Haven
ready to play ball. For the first
ten minutes of the second
game, the visitors could not
miss any shots they took. The
junior Eaglettes were down by
20 points, at one time during
the game. It wasn't long
though, before the Haven initiated its scoring drive, only to
narrow the lead to eight at the
half with the score 44,36.
The Haven's scoring drive
was commanded by guards
Denise Gobrecht and Wendy
Keller. On the defensive end
of the court, center Deb Nunes
was pulling down numerous
rebounds and passing to the
sidelines for the fast break.
Forward Sandy Kotecki's offensive game came alive in the
second half. In a three minute
period, Sandy had ripped the
cords for 12 points. But try as
they might, Lock Haven could
not pull closer than six points
to West Chester. The final of
the game was 77-71.
Kotecki, Brady, and Wild
hit for 18,13 and ten points for
the losing cause. Five West
Chester players reached the
double figures.

Much time was spent, at the
meeting, clarifying these different alternatives but no
decision would be arrived at.
Another problem concerning the field trip arose over the
amount of lab science credit
each student is to be awarded.
In the syllabus, submitted to
the committee, it states that
six lab science was the amount
but disagreement arose when
it was suggested that only
three credits should be given
for lab science and the remaining three as general education
electives.
Because of these problems it
was decided to table the notion
and send it back to the
geoscience department to devise an acceptable solution.
Mr. Edward Kelleher asked
the committee to either have a
special meeting to discuss
curriculum changes in Social
Work or else place it on top of
the agenda for the next
meeting. Kelleher requested
this move because oL "Some

Concerning the small crowd,
which attended, Hamblin said
he was glad to see it that way,
because he feels that things
must be running fairly smoothly. He reported that when they
aren't, the place is usually

by Linda Bailey, could have

Other actors who deserve

Ralph Waldo Emerson, for a
time and Sharon Hamilton, his

epitome of the common man.
The pacing of "The Night
Thoreau Spent in Jail" was
poor in the first act, which
seemed to serve as a long introduction to the second where
the play's various conflicts finally reached their climaxes.
Being separated into several
short scenes, Act 1 moved
slowly and lacked the unity
necessary to draw the audience into the action. The
longer section, though, had
the chance to establish a mood
that caught the audience up in
the feelings and philosophies
of Henry David Thoreau.

The lighting effect on the
whole was one of sharp
contrast with the characters,
who were dwarfed by the
height of the set, and moved in
and out of focus from spots of
brilliant light into darkness.
This did not work as well as it
could have, however, because
in some scenes, in particular
the war sequence, where the
stage was bathed in biood-red
light, the lighting was too dark
for the audience to see clearly
what was happening.
