"Legislative Appreciation Day'* planned for April
By Jennifer Brady
StaffReporter
The
SCC
voted
unanimously
at
Wednesday's
meeting
to
settle
a
negligence lawsuit out of court for $20,000
instead of facing a possible $300,000 line
(see other story for details).
In other business, SCC Vice President
Steve Donaldson said thai the SCC
donated $150 to the Tau Beta Sigma
sorority's fund.
The fund is being raised to start a
memorial honoring
student John Ross.
Ross was killed in an auto accident over the
Christmas brealc.
The sisters will be holding a spaghetti
dinner in the future to help raise funds for
the memorial.
Another major issue discussed ^t
Wednesday's meeting was transportation.
SCC members casted a majority of votes
approving
a
faculty
member's
recommendation that the University handle
transportation in the future instead of the
SCC.
Associate
professor
of
foreign
languages, Robert Mullen, said that under
the current system, student athletes drive
to their competitions.
Since
they
are
fatigued
after
competition, Mullen stated, there is the
possibility that they could become involved
in an accident. He recommended that
professional drivers be hired.
McNamara said, 'I think we'll be saving
the students a lot of money when the SCC's
two vans and station wagon become state
vehicles.'
The vehicles will be turned over to the
University on July 1, 1987.
The SCC's transportation funding report
indicated that for the 1987/88 fiscal year,
the SCC would only have to cover total
catastrophic insurance costs.
Currently, the SCC is responsible (or gas

and maintenance, vehicle insurance, bus
transportation, mileage costs and vehicle
replacements.
McNamara added that he would rather
see the money go into student activities.
The SCC will continue to provide
transportation to small clubs, but instead of
owning the vehicles, the SCC will lease
them.
In other business, McNamara discussed
what happened at the Council of Trustees'
meeting on February 19.
He said that President Craig Dean Willis'
report revealed that enrollment for Spring
'87 is the highest ever.
Also in the report, Willis said that LHU will
hire a fundraising consultant to help the
alumni association raise money. He added
that the SSHE Board of Governors will be
on campus April 22, 23 and 24.
McNamara said that a "Legislative
Appreciation Day' has been planned for a
date in late April.

LHU now offers
honors seminar
to few selected
students

In explaining what the SCC Executive
Board hopes to accomplish by having this
event, McNamara said, 'Often, the only
time our legislators hear from us is when
budget time comes. This event is to thank
them for their past support.'
Bob Rote. SCC public relations director,
said the legislators who have tentatively
agreed to come are U.S.
Representative
William F. Clinger, Jr. from Ihe 23rd District,

Rote added that he has also requested
Lock Haven's
Mayor Diann H. Stuempfle
and one Clinton County commissioner to
attend the event.
The legislators will meet with Willis and
with acting Vice President Mary Pursell for
breakfast and a tour of the campus.
The meeting concluded with comments
for the good of the organizatton.

A new honors seminar course, that has
been offered to only a few selected
students. Is part of the curriculum at Lock
Haven University this semester.
This Ihree credit course entitled 'Utopia
and Human Nature,' is being taught by Dr.
Nelson DeLavan and Dr. James T. Knauer.
'The klea for a seminar such as this has
been around for many years. It was not a
spur of the moment decision,' said
DeLavan.
DeLavan went on to say that a program
such as this has been in production over a
series of semesters and was finally
Implemented this term.
'It was by invitation only,* said Knauer.
'We chose the candidates on G.P.A. and

teacher recomendations.*
The 15 students InvoKred in Ihe seminar
include Theresa Burns, David Degarmo,
Chris Fischer, Rosemary Glantz, Kathleen
Houser,
Deb
Kreidler
and

again.*
The other sludenls In the class are Mark
McCoy, John Murphy, Erk: Otiende, James
Pflugh, Jainene Scaff, Bead Seth, Taiji
Walanabe and Marchelle Whitesel.
Pflugh commented, 'The honors seminar
Is extremely thought
provoking
and
rewarding.
II
has
increased
my
understanding of society.*
Comprised
mainly of reading and
classroom discussion, the course includes
studying such classical Utopian thinkers as

SCC votes to
settle $20,000
negligence suit
By Jennifer Brady
StaffReporter
It was determined that a $20,000
out-of-court settlement
would be the
appropriate avenue to take regarding a
negligence case filed against the SCC in
May of 1981, during the Senate meeting
held Wednesday, March 4.
The case, Hughes v. SCC, involves a
student who drowned in a canoeing
accident when she was not required to
check out a life jacket by former SCC
employee and student Steve Loud.
Former SCC lawyer Rtehard Callahan
said that evidence indicates the SCC was
negligent.
Rather than allow the case to go to
court on March 16, and risk, according to
Callahan, receiving a fine of about
$300,000, the SCC unanimously voted to
settle out of court.
In a letter to SCC President Kevin
McNamara, Callahan indicated that the
city of Lock Haven, the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania, the University's Board of
Trustees
and
the
Pennsylvania
departments have also settled out of court
for about $75,000.
Jean Nestlerode, SCC
accountant,
said, 'Money has been set aside in a
ready asset trust for the purpose of
settling this case.'
McNamara sakl, 'It is not going to affect
any clubs or other organizations because
|the money has already been budgeted.*
SCC Vice President Steve Donaldson
said, 'H was the best thing the SCC couM
have done. If Ihe case woukl have gone to
court, and we had k>sl,
our budget is
$400,000, so we would have tost ali our
lundlng.'
Plato, Thomas More, Edward Bellamy and
B.F. Skinner.
The honors students will be evaluated on
their participation in dass and by doing (our
papers ~ each of which must be six to ten
typed pages.
*ln all of my 19 years of teaching, iMs
course has been the most challenging. Ifs
something I will kwk back on in years lo
come,* sak) DeLavan.
Because of the interest in honors
seminars, both professors have future
plans In regards to a regular honors
program.
Knauer is coordinating LHU's
efforts
towards this program.
'We (LHU) may not have another honors
seminar next semester, but if the desire is
there, we hope to'have a honors program
some day,' agreed both.

Reminder

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Dear Editor,
Tonight I attended the airband contest in
Price Auditorium. Everyone who went had
to pay a dollar to get in. Each person who
paid got a piece of paper to vote with. I felt
this was an unfair method In choosing the
winner.
One band was made up of Alpha Sigma
Phi brothers and the other band consisted
of residents from McEntire Hall.
This
method of voting made it a popularity
contest. Of course, fraternity brothers are
going to stick together and show up to vote
for their band.
The McEntire residents
aren't as close and loyal as a fraternity.

Management science club
There will be a meeting on Tuesday, March 17
at 1 p.m. in Raub 206. The topw will be the new
date for the Stock Exchange trip. Price and time
of the trip wili be discussed.
This meeting is
mandatory for all students who wish to go on Ihe
trip.

I am going lo Ihe shore in Wildwood for the
summer and I'm kwking for roommates. I am going
down over spring break to get a place. Call Barbie
at 753-3412 if interested.

Volleyball marathon
Lambda Chl Alpha fraternity will be sponsoring
a volleyball marathon on March 20-21. Sign-ups
are In Bentley Hall Lobby on March 2-5 and 16-20
at lunches and dinners. Call 748-9919 for more

Singers needed
Anyone interested in singing in Ihe gospel
choir, please come to our first meeting on
Wednesday, March 18 al 4 p.m. in Price
Auditorium.
For more Information contact Mr.
West at *2322 or Cecelia Ranger at *348B. All
are welcome.

Dear Editor,
Never let it be said that the professors
and administrators here at Lock Haven are
interested only in teaching and picking up
their checks while neglecting activities on
campus. Instead, let it be noted that they
dfi. care and julLhelp if asked.
We (the Donkey Basketball Selection
Committee of High Hall Council) have asked
20 of these individuals to participate on the
faculty/staff team for the Donkey Ball
tournament on April 28, and i i of them
agreed to play.
Furthermore, three of the
six who said no cited physical reasons for
their decline while another had a class

commitment.
When I tell people that we
have 14 so far (with seven yet to ask), they
all seem surprised.
First, let me thank those professors and
administrators who did agree to play, and
second, let me offer a word of warning to
those who are chosen to play on the two
student teams. Co-Honorary Captains Dr.
Charlie DeSanto and Dr. Kenneth M. Cox
will be leading a tough team, determined to
successfully represent the great faculty
and administration here at Lock Haven.
Sincerely,
Rick M. Ansel
President High Hall Council

The part that really killed me was for each
dollar more you donated to SAMS you got
another vole.
I heard the fraternity
brothers telling each other to gather their
money lo get more votes.
The McEntire
residents could have done that too, but we
aren't as close to the people who were in
the McEntire band.
There should have been judges who were
totally unbiased.
Lock Haven wants to
send its best band to MTV, not its most
popular.

We're getting towards the middle of
another semester and all has gone pretty
well so far.
At the halfway point, most
people have managed to remain on top of
their classwork and attend all of their
classes.
If you're like me, however, a storm is
approaching, 'lazyitls.'
Yes, 'iazyitis,* a chronic disease Ihat
can hit anyone. Worse yet, Hs effects can
be catostrophic.
A victim of this disease usually doesn't
wake op until jioon.
He or she says
g9odt>ye to moming classes and hello to

cutting class and minus letter grades.
Even If a class doesnt have a cut policy,
you still wind up falling behind.
Conquering 'lazyitls' is a matter of
self-control, it is up to you to try to
overcome that something inside which'
causes you to have that lax feeling toward
classes.
This semester, I'm using a new method to
combat the disease.
Even when 'lazyitls'
sets in, I usually get pretty good grades,
but this semester I'm setting my eyes on
dean'e list, and to get there I also must
continue to attend classes.
Also, remember that each time you miss
a dass you are throwing money away
because each class represents a part of
your tuition. So try to cure yourself of this
s^ious disorder and you'll avoid a lot of
pafat taler. And youll savs a let of money,
too.

Eastern Wrestling League Championships at PennState
By Scott Crispell
Sports Reporter
The 12th annual Eastern Wrestling
League
Championships
(EWL)
get
underway today at Penn State's Rec Hall.
The Nittany Lions, who finished the dual
meet season as the nation's top ranked
team, will head the seven team field as they
search for their sixth consecutive team
title.
Ten former champions return for this
year's tournament. Ricky Bonomo of
Bloomsburg (118). Tim Flynn (126), Greg
Elinsky (158), Dan Mayo (177) of Penn
State, Paul Clark (134), Mike Cote (142) and
Dave Cowan (190) of Clarion are all back to
defend the titles they won last March.
Bloomsburg's Rocky Bonomo (126), a
two-time champion, defaulted in the finals
to Flynn last year. Pitt's Gary Bolin won the
crown at 142 two years ago. The Bonomo
twins and Elinsky will be seeking their third
individual EWL crown.
Here's a look at the top individuals in
each weight class.
118 - After competing at 126 all season,
two-time NCAA champion Ricky Bonomo of
Bloomsburg drops to 118 and rates a slight
edge over Penn State's All-American Jim
Martin. Bonomo handled Martin in the finals
a year ago, 13-7. Dickey Howell and Paul
Kapper of Cleveland should make things
interesting. Howell tied Kapper in the dual
meet earlier In the season. This weight
could send four wrestlers to nationals.
126 - Rocky Bonomo is healthy again and
is favored to win his third EWL title. Penn
State's Ken Chertow is coming off an upset
victory over Ricky Bonomo one week ago.

Jeff Huskk could reach the finals while
Pitt's Matt Gerhard could be a surprise.
134 - Clarion's Paul Clark returns to
defend his crown. Tim Flynn of Penn State
moves up tot 34 after winning the 126
pound title last year. Willy Metzger Is the
best of the rest and shouki eam a trip to the
NCAA's.
142 - This could be the deepest weight
class in the tourney. Everyone has been
ranked in the top 20 during the season and
have taken turns beating each other.
Leading the way is Pitt's Pat Santow, a
runner-up a year ago. Clarion's Mike Cole
defeated Santow in the finals last year, but
recently dropped a 13-3 decision to the
Panther All-American. Joe Hadge of Penn
State and Mike Lingenfelter could surprise
the field. Lingenfelter dropped a tough
15-13 loss to Santow in last years tourney.
150 - Jim Aberty of West Virginia was
third a year ago and has been ranked
among the top three In the nation all
season. Dave Morgan of Bloom is close
behind. Thane Turner owns a 4-4 draw with
Morgan. Former champ Gary Bolin of Pitt
should be in the hunt for the title.
158 - Two-time runner-up Ken Haselrig of
Clarion is back lor his final shot at an EWL
crown. John Barrett has dropped some
close decisions of late, but could put it
together and place.
167 • Only two names here, Jody Karam
and Greg Elinsky ef Penn State. Elinsky
has two titles under his belt at 158. Elinsky
defeated Karam in the dual meet, 9-2.
Karam won the 167 pound titie two years
ago.
177 - Penn State's Dan Mayo is the top
gun with a 26-0 record. Clarion's Dave

Young overcomes adversity and change
By Chris Sager
Sports Reporter
Changes and adversity haven't stopped
the steady play ol senior Lori Young
throughout her four years here.
A knee injury in her sophomore year
caused her to miss several games, but she
returned to play on the state championship
winning team.
Besides injuries, after three years of
service under former Head Coach Fred
Riley, she had to adjust to the style of
incoming coach Frank Scarfo.
'The toughest Adjustment for me was
changing from a zone defense to a man to
man,* said Young.
According to Assistant Coach Carol
Ritter, 'Lori adjusted extremely wall. I think
she enjoyed the challenge.'
Young, who Is Ihe all-time assist leader
at LHU, has also picked up the scoring
pace this year without her assist rate going
down.
RiHer went on to say that
Young has
gained confidence in her shot and has
taken advantage of scoring opportunities
she did not take in the past.
Personal records are not as important as
team
accomplishments
according
to
Young. 'I wasnl even thinking about the
assist record.'

Senior fwint guard Lorf Young
Lori, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Norman Young of Altoona is also a very
good student, according to Ritter.
Currently student teaching at Liberty
Curtin Elementary School In Beech Creek,
Young plans to teach after graduatk>n.

Cowan was champ a year ago, but has
struggled all season. Jeff Karam could
place.
190 - Bruce Wallace of Bloom and Penn
State's Andy Volt have finished second
here. Wallace was 2-1 against Voit this
season. Bill Freeman dropped close
decisions to Wallace and Voit. Should he
turn either of those decisions around, he
could reach the finals.

HWT - Todd Harrison of Clarion is the
biggest and best of this weight. The battle
for second should be between Penn State's
Greg Haladay and Bloom's Jack Yocum.
Mike Mazza will be giving up too much of a
weight difference to place.
The top three in each weight class, as
well as four 'wild card' selections, will
qualify for the NCAA championships at the
University of Maryland on March 19-21.

Haven booters capture indoor soccer tourney
By Donna Carey
Sports Reporter
Led by Warren Westcoat, most valuable
player of the tournament. Lock Haven's
soccer team triumphed in all six games
Sunday to win the first Indoor soccer
tournament of the spring season.
'We started out slowly, but we played
better as the day went on,' said Head
Coach Lenny Long.
'We were sound
defensively, and we did what we had to do
to win.'
The Bald Eagles first victory, paced by
Rob Eaton's two goals, ended wilh a 4-1 win
against Nazareth College.
Westcoat led the surge in the second
game by scoring on a 50 foot shot that

glided into the corner of the net. Roy Mehl
was credited with the game-winning goal as
the Eagles coasted to a 4-1 win over
Bucknell.
Andrew Monteith's unassisted goal and
two assists capped the Eagles third win of
the day over Millersville 4-1.
Following a scoreless first half, the
Eagles beat rival East Stroudsburg 3-0 to
qualify for the semifinals.
In the semifinals, the Eagles defeated
their own alumni team 2-0 to reach the
finals. Goals by Monteith and Tibi Kobolak
were enough for the victory.
The finals brought a rematch against
Nazareth. Just as before, the Haven came
out on top 4-0. This gave LHU the win and
the championship in the tournament.

LHU Foundation offers more than 31 scholarships to heip students
By Mike Leavy
StaffReporter
'We help generate money from the
private sector for LHU,' said Lynn Lytle,
Director of the Lock Haven University
Foundation.
For the past twenty years, the LHU
Foundation has been an independent
fundraising body that raises money for
equipment and scholarships.
It has its own board of directors
comprised mostly of alumni and local

business people.
They get funds from various sources
such as alumni, families of students,
friends of LHU and other foundations.
Lytle said that the foundation expects to
more than double their funds this year from
the 1983-84 total of $41,000.
The money for equipment is usually given
in the form of grants, she added.
A professor or department may request
funds to purchase equipment that wasn't
obtainable in the budget.

Alumnus acknowledges ROTC program
By Abby A. Mylin
Guest Columnist
Six years after his graduation, alumnus
John L. Yonkin acknowledges and praises
the ROTC program at Lock Haven
University.
Yonkin is recognized as the first LHU
student to receive a full ROTC scholarship.
He applied for the scholarship in his
sophomore year after spending the
previous year in the ROTC program.
At that time, the program included only
eight students, a captain and one
non-commissioned officer.
By Yonkin's senior year, however,
approximately 15 to 20 students were
active in the program, and it began to gain
recognition among the students and
faculty.
Upon graduating from LHU with a degree
in secondary education English, Yonkin

was commissioned to the Air Defense
Artillery and was stationed in Fort Bliss,
Texas.
Later, he served in the Eighth Infantry in
Germany where he became a legislative
officer.
After working only one year as a sales
representative, Yonkin was promoted to
regional manager at Baxter Travenol, a
company
Invovled
with
medical
diagnostics.
He explained that he developed
leadership by showing people how to get
things done and also by motivating them to
do what needs to be done.
Yonkin also noted that he owes much of
his success to his ROTC training and the
experience it gave him.
'ROTC put me a step ahead, and then
soma,' he said.
When asked what he thought of the
present ROTC facilities, Yonkin remarked,
'I wouldnl know it was the same place!'

Circle K tielps with area service projects
By John Cover
•Staffreporter
One of the clubs on campus which is
almost unknown to LHU students is Circle
'K,' a non-profit service organization on the
college level.
In the past. Circle 'K' has helped such
oganizations as 'Parents Helping Parents'
by baby sitting for them and 'Adopt a
Grandparent' by going to visit people in the
county home.
Future plans for Circle'K' include helping
'Special Olympics' by organizing the
events and games.

They also try to help the college
community in many ways. One of their
latest efforts Is the reopening of 'Cheers.'
'Cheers' is a non-alcoholic club for LHU
students where they can go to dance to
music or just hang out.
Matt Kane, member of Circle 'K,' said,
'We had great success the first night
'Cheers' was open, but we lost money this
last time with the beach party.'
He also said that K seems the students
don't want 'Cheers' as much as Circle 'K'
originally thought.
The future of 'Cheers' is uncertain and
Circle 'K* would like LHU students to help
deckle its fate.

Lytle said that the main portion of the
foundation's fundraising campaign is
geared towards money for scholarships.
Currently, the foundation offers more
than 31 scholarships.
These scholarships are only open to
students who fufill the requirements of the
various programs.
One of the larger scholarships of interest
to freshmen is the Presidential Scholars
Program.
This program requires that students
score a minimum of 1200 on the Scholastic
Aptitude Test, hold a ranking in the upper
fifth of the class and have excellent
citizenship.
This scholarship awards $1,500 to five
freshmen annually.
According to Lytle, most of the
scholarships are in memory of a loved one.
These initial funds are then invested and
the interest is then used to pay out the
scholarships, she explained.
The amount given out each year depends
on the amount of the donations and the
annual interest rate.

people to ask for donations to the
University.
The figures are not in on how much was
made, but it is expected to have been a
successful campaign, Lytle commented.
Brochures are also sent out encouraging
alumni and others to give money to the
school.
There are several gift clubs open for
donors to join. For example, a donation of
one thousand dollars or more puts the
donor in the President's Inner Circle.
The Archway Society is for donations
between $500 and $999. For niembership in
the Haven Associates, a donation between
$250 and $499 can be made.
These programs, along with others, have
helped the Foundation increase its amount
of funds over the years.
Lytle concluded that the LHU Foundation
has had much success in the past and is
expected to offer an even wider array of
scholarships and grants in the.future.
