The research team of Brian Stoppe and Mordecai Lipshutz is laboriou.sly searching for a conclusion to the mystery of the radio station. In the near future, they will propose alternative ecjjipment plans to the SC(". The team has set their goal as creating the ideal radio station at the lowest possible c o s t . A consulting firm will analyze the geographic conditions in Lock Haven and determine what wattage is needed for the station. In this way, they could make the mountains into molehills. A first c l a s s FCC license is needed if the station is over ten watts, but this presents no major problems. The dynamic duo has also been visiting other stale college radio stations in an effort to find the perfect organizational scheme- The head staff will consist of a station manager, program director, and a first c l a s s , director, and a first c l a s s technician. The remaining staff will be involved in production, here there will be a breakdown of responsibilities , consisting of news rock mu:;ic, and c l a s s i c a l music. Prospects for a c.impus radio station look 'oright at the moment. If an agreement is reached v/ith the SCC by the end of the semester, then the consulting firm will work out wattage problems. The equipment could conceivably arrive here in August. An FCC construction permit mu.'-:t then be submitted and approved by the FCC- This takes aboo t two nnonths and is the final step in acquiring the stati en l i c e n s e . . A'ter a license is secured and equipment installed, the station could be ready for a fall opening. Be sure to stay tuned for the next episode of " R a d i o waves up in the a i t .

Coordinator of Campus Activities Dave Arsenault has announced that the commuter computer car pool is now in operation. The pur pose of this service is to provide commuters with names, a d d r e s s e s , and telephone numbers of those students living in the same vicinity. After this informa tion has been received, car pools can then be arranged. In order to sign up for t h i s s e r v i c e , commuters arc requested to go to either the Dean of Student Affairs Office in Raub Hall, the switchboard in the Administration Building or the FUB Iniormation desk. The sign-up procedure is simple. It consists of locating the residence on the map or map zone list, writing the corresponding code number on a computer card, and filling out tlie remainder of the card. This card is left at the signup location. A computer printout of the names, a d d r e s s e s , and I phone numbers will then be sent to e a c h applicant in about a week. page 2 EAGLE EYE Lock Haven State College Wed., Jan. 2 3 , 1974 EDITORIAL: England exchange: communication needed It's always good to return to the familiar surroundings of LHS, but this semester I greeted the event with mixed emotions, Having just stepped off the plane at the termination of my experience with the Lock Haven /Nottingham exchange program last week, I found myself jumping into the position of Eagle fiye editorin-chief. The leap comes as quite a jolt to my nervous s y s t e m , which is still struggling to recover from culture shock, jet lag, and all other ailments common tc; exchange students returning home. Now that I've had some time to recouperate, however, I'd like to share with you some observations from a b r o a d . F i r s t , I wish to emphasize the following positive statement concerning the exchange; residing in Nottingham luigland for three months is definitely a worth while experience, both from the standpoint of academics as well as the social a s p e c t s . I would encourage anyone to whom this opportunity is feasible to grab it. Wc here at Lock Iiaven arc most fortunate in having the opportunity to participate in such a program, as this exchange is not offered by the other state colleges. However, the program is not without its problems, particularly in t he administrative level on both sides of the Atlantic.

During these weeks many questions have been r a i s e d concerning the project. The following is an effort to clarify any misconceptions which the s t u d e n t s may have at this time regarding this project. I. Benefits of an educational FM station on the LHS Campus, A. The s t a t i o n is a means of immediate communication into every room on the campiLs as well as every home, business and car in the community with an FM radio. B. Instantaneous relay of campus as well as local ^ s t a t e , national, and international news. C. Communicative link with other state and private schools. D. A medium of entertainment. E . Opportunities to cxnose campus talent. F . Prestige and recognition to LHS and its activities. G. The broadcasting of atliletic events and other campus activities. II. A learning experience fir students in the field of broadcasting. II. Equipment ftoposals A. Goals for ihe proposed equipment. 1. Ten to fifteen year longevity. 2. Complete compatability. 3. Rigid quality control. 4. Reliability. 5. Lowest cost with consideration to quality control. 6. Complete studio pointed were the seniors who fell that they shouldhave been given first priority, along wilh olher students in their last year, for course selection. The situation did nol appear as gloomy at the close of drop/add diiy. In most cases, acceptable reasons were given a s to why certain c o u r s e s could not be obtained. The administration proved to be especially helpful and understanding in our c a s e s . Consequently, most schedule problems were ironed oul on drop/add day or soon after. Despite these snags, the Lock Haven ''Nottingham exchange is a valuable program. Problems are bound 10 develop when an exchange is attempted between two completely different educational s y s t e m s . Troubled areas are being worked oul slowly throughout the years of the program's e x i s t e n c e . However, this process could be speeded up through better and more frequent communication. This communication should take place between both the iastitutions themselves and the students and administration of each college. In this way, a memorable and pleasant experience could be made even more enjoyable for the participants of the exchange. -A.R. design without extravagance. B. Recent progress on equipment proposals. 1. Six suppliers of professional broadcasting equipment have been asked to submit proposals before the conclusion of the semester. 2. Four of the suppliers have visited with us to discuss their proposals, 3. In recent weeks we have visited approximately twenty educational as well as commercial broadcasting facilities which have included examination of their equipment, and extensive discussions with their directors cont. on page 4 Wed., Jan. 23, 1974 EAGLE EYE Lock Haven State College page 3 Huskies-biggest defensive battle of year By Bill Sterner The scene is set for one of the biggest defensive battles of the year in Pa. basketball. Tonight at 8 p.m. in Thomas Field House, the Bloomsburg Huskies invade the domain of the Lock Iiaven State Bald E a g l e s . Through ten games so far this s e a s o n , Coach Dick Taylor's scrappy Eagles have risen to the second best defensive team in the NCAA Division III. The Eagles are only allowing 51.6 points per game and a r e second only to Fredonia State in New York (49.9). The Eagles are ranked above teams such as Muskingum, Ohio (54.2), Ohio Northern University (56.6). The Eagles al.so boast a five win. live loss record going into tonight's action. However, Bloomsburg State a l s o has quite some defense of its own. In the NCAA Division II rankings the Huskies are holding onto third place giving up a meager 60.9 points per game. Bloomsburg a l s o has proven in recent games that they can muster together an offense when necessary. I'he night after the luigles defeated I'Alinboro. Blixmisbiirg rubbed s a l t into the Scotties wounds with a 90-82 topping. r e a s o n for this stands about six foot eight inches and goes by the name of John Willis. Against Edinboro, Willis pulled down numerous impiirtant rebounds, while popping in a career high of 31 points. He is ranked as one of the top scorers and rebounders in the nation. However, he will find the going a little tougher against the Eagle defense. Tonight will mark the 85th clash between the F2agles and Bloomsburg. Tlie series began in 1909 between the Pa. Conference rivals. The Huskies hold a 57 wins to 27 losses edge over l.ock Haven in what is said to be the oldest rivalry in t h e s t a l e . Tip off is slated for 8 p.m. with the j . \ ' . ' s squaring olf a I 6:15 p.m. The Huskies lake a 7-3 record into tonight's game, and a nationally ranked pi> sition in average s c o r i n g margin. Bloomsiuirg is averaging 75.4 points per game.

An interview with Dave Arseneault, Coordinator of Campus A c t i v i t i e s , shed some light on the subject. Arseneault is acting chairman of the Committee on the Conservation of Institutional Resources (CCIR). The comm i t t e e , consisting of s t u d e n t s , faculty, administration and staff, was formed in early October, '73.Its purpose is to study ways in which the college community can conserve its energy r e s o u r c e s . O i g i n a l l y organized to focus attention on a possible fuel shortage for the winter months, the committee is presently studying long-range energy conservation as well. Chairman A r s e n e a u l t said that the Committee was formed for two main r e a s o n s . The first reason stemmed from the announcement that the college would get only 90% of the fuel which it received the previous year. This posed a real problem, considering the addition of two new buildings on campus • Gross Hall and the Sloan Fine Arts Center. The other reason was the trouble with State funding; money a l l o t t e d to Lock Haven State was d e c r e a s i n g , while student enrollment was on the increase. With ihese two problems facing the college, according lo the chairman, " i t became quite evident that some measures had to he taken to cut c o s t s wherever p o s s i b l e . " After a month of thorough investigation, the Committee submitted its first report to Dr. Russell Milliken on Oct. 30th. The report consisted of recommendations as to how the college could save money. The recommendations were made in the areas of savings on electricity fuel oil and heating, maintenence, paper and water usage as we 11 as efforts to keep vandalism to a minimum. In conjunction with the Committee repori, a representative from the Pennsylvania Power and Light Co. was on campus for two days during the Christmas vacation for the purpose of surveying ihe college's e l e c t r i c a l usage. The representative, who came at no expense to the college, made further suggestions as to how Lock Haven State could save on electr icily. Also resulting from the October 30th report, is the establishment of the energy conservation telephone line and the commuter computer car pool. The telephone is presently in operation and open to anyone with ideas or suggustions on ways of further reducing energy useage on campus To use the line, dial ' 0 ' from on campus and dial 748-5351 from off campus. The car pool has been set up for the purpose of saving money for fuel and to help relieve the parking situation on canipus. Arseneault commented that everyone has been ci>operating with the energy effort and there have been some notable r e s u l t s . He cited, fix example, the fact that the college used 88,600 Kilowatt hours less power in November, 1973, than it did in Oclober of the same year b e f o r e the advent of energy saving m e a s u r e s . Although some of the reduction can be attributed to the Thanksgiving vacation, Arseneault said the November total is still a significant reduction from the previous month. The Committee on the Conservation of Institutional Resources is continuing its work this semester on a sub- committee level. These subcoiiiniitlees include f^ducation. Publicity, Recycling, Long and Short Range implementation of the Commiltee report and ICI'i (Institution Committee oil Energy.) .Arseneault concluded by saying that there is some doubt as to whether or not an energy cr is is e x i s t s . But, he added, " w e cannot continue to use fuel as we have in the past." Have you ever wondered: If we weren't so busy finding problems in our own government, we might be in the Middle East nosing in theirs' 33 3 3 3if3 3 3 3 3 3 3 §QaQ9rs 28 E.
