Moyer outlined the hopes, goals and concerns of the student lobbying organization and explained how the CAS would fit into the organization. University Act Dan Bair, a student member of the committee investigating the Pennsylvania Commonwealth University Act of 1974 reported that some of the CAS sug- gestions had been included in the fifth draft of the act. Those revisions included the addition of sc student on the state-wide Board of Regents. However, there is pressure on the committee from Bair and CAS to place several more student members on the board. Another change in the act involved the wording concerning the activity fee.

This program utilizes children from the local Head Start-Follow Through Programs, Volunteers work with the children on a one-to-one basis. In designing the program, special consideration was directed toward assuring that the children would not be let dovm or used by a negligent volunteer. Volunteers are asked to visit about once a week, and to attend monthly group meetings. Students from any curriculum are welcomed to participate. All that is asked is that they be truly committed to fulfilling tha obligations they accept with the program. Currently the demand for volunteers far exceeds tho supply, especially for Big Brothers and there is a long waiting list of children. The program benefits more than just the little brother or sister, the family, the community and the Head Start-Follow Through Program. It touches the student's life, broadens his outlook through exposure to other lifestyles, and provides a little mutual trust in a hectic world. Wednesday at 6 p.m, in Raub 221, there will be a meeting of old volunteers and interested newcomers. Discussion will include continuation of the program and selection of co-ordinators for next year. Anyone interested is welcome, and all questions will be answered at that time. If interested but cannot attend, contact Kathy Russell or Ellen HiUyer. page 2 EAGLE EYE Lock Haven State College Fieldhouse fi/fed wifh fbotsfonpin' music by Mike Shriver Last Saturday evening the "country and western" music lovers at Lock Haven State were treated, in Thomas Field House, by the sounds of Bob Doyle and the Buffalo Chipkickers and Earl Scruggs Revue. With the Chipkickers starting off the evening, the atmosphere was set for some good old "foot stompin' and knee slapping" country and western music. Along with some of the familiar and popular songs they played, the Chipkickers entertained with a few of their own creations. The combination banjo player (who is also a farmer near Penn State), guitarist and fiddler performed a show that took one back into the Appalation Mountain of Pennsylvania as well as the back hills of Tennessee. Some of the music set the mood of old time square dances that were held in barns and big open soaces when the music first found its beginning. The trio ended their part of the show with a tune called "Black Mountain Rag", a show starting tune that picked up an incredibly fast beat as it progressed. The audience was charmed by it and called tor an encore. Returning, the Chipkickers finished up with an all time campus favorite 'Somebody Robbed the Glendale Train," After a brief intermission, the audience was greeted by the renowned Earl Scruggs and his Revue Band consisting of Earl, his sons, and a few friends. Scruggs and friends started their part of the evening with square dance numbers that Earl played when he was a boy in North Citrolina. Starting out the show solely, Mr. Scruggs was then joined by his sons Randy and Gary Scruggs, pJaying electric guitar and bass guitar, Jody Maphis on the drum. Josh Graves on the dobro guitar, a piano player, and Earl himself on a five string banjo. The group played a number of old and new country and western songs along with a few old Southward Blues. For the country and western music lovers of Lock Haven and its surrounding area, Saturday night was a treat that will, no doubt, be remembered for a long time to come. Kreskin finds fee in holster Heard any "moon talk" lately? Anyone attending Kreskin's Friday night performance did. Using his alleged ESP povNcrs, Kreskin located, as promised earlier, his perform ance fee. Even though a committee of students had hidden the check in a security officer's gun holster, the mental magician tracked it down in less than five minutes. A udience participation played the most imporlant part in Kreskin's performance. At one point he asked members of the audience to write something personal about themselves on a piece of paper. After collecting the papers and redistributing them, Kreskin correctly guessed what was written on each slip. Members of the audience got their chance to measure their ESP skills. Kreskin drew two geometric shapes on a paper, then asked how many could guess which figures he had dra\\n. Many members of the crowd were able to identify the shape as a circl in a triangle. Mind suggestive tr icks vere also a big part of Kreskin's entertainment. Students were given post hypnotic suggestions which ranged from being able to speak "moon talk", to not being able to move. One of the most interesting mind suggestion feats was the "invisible" security officer. KresKin left a group of students with a post hypnotic suggestion that one of the security officers was invisible. When the man came on stage and waved a red handkerchief the students insisted that the kerchief was moving under its ov« power. Kreskin gained much audience approval since a number of students commented enthus- iastically on his performance. A number gathered to talk with the mentalists well after the shovv's completion. Tuesday, April 23, 1974 Newman club to reorganize The Newman Club is now starting to get reorganized here on campus. This club is for students, Catholic as well as other religions, to get together once in a while. Officers were elected for the 1974-75 term in January.

The bishop accepted the invitation and will come to campus on April 27. Mass will be held in Ulmer Planetarium at 5:10 pm, followed by a reception. IMPORTANT: CEC meeting tonight 6:30 Himes 111. Special Olympics and Spring activities will be discussed. Quintet audience appreciative by Renny Miller Comments such as, "I didn't like it," to ones like "the playing was fantastic," were heard Wednesday evening following the performance of the New York Brass Quintet in Price Auditorium. Though the comments seem opposite they usually came from the same person. The New York Brass Quintet performed to a very appreciative audience, so appreciative in fact,that the quintet was persuaded to do an encore. The program ranged from a work of Bach to a modernistic work of by Jean Louel. The audience recognized the superb musicianship in the modernistic work, but they appreciated the other works more. The quintet consisted of two trumpets, a French horm, trombone, and tuba. For one selection, the horn, trumpet and trombone performed alone, but for the others all five tireless performers played. ' The quintet has recorded for RCA and Golden Crest Record labels. They are managed by Columbia Artist Management and were sponsored by the Lock Haven Artist Series. Tuesday, April 23, 1974 EAGLE EYE Lock Haven State College Competition stiff in Olympics Kappa Delta Rho frater nity is the Men's Greek Olympics champ for 1974.

Individual Events In individual events such as the high and broad jumps, and the softball throw, each fraternity has three entries. The total lenght or height of jump or throw of the three entries were added together. The result determined the order of finish for the respective fraternity in that event. Phi Mu Delta's best finishes came in the wheelbarrel race, softball throw, and tug of war where they garnered second place finishes. Acacia captured second place finishes in the ball relay, and high jump for their best performances after gaining a victory in the raft race previous. Sigma Pi did not fare too well in this year's Olympics gaining their points on five fourth place finishes. In what proved to be a very costly mistake for the boys from TKE, a failure to finish the first event of the Olympics cost them a tie with KDR for the title. In the ball relay, KDR took first, Acacia, second, and Phi Mu Delta, them, after the final tally a third.
