Lock Haven State College Vol. XV^ No. 66 Pubs Board becomes self-supporting by JoAnn Morse An agreement between the Students Publications Board and the Students Cooperative Council has been approved. Essentially, this agreement allows the SPB to become a self-supporting organization. This enables publications to operate more independently of the SCC. The agR emenl which consists of fourteen points, was passed by the SpB at a special meeting held Monday nighl. Ths SCC had »4; ready approved il al their January 23 meeting. Included under the 14 points are provisions which require the SCC to contract the SPB lo publish the newspaper, yearbook and literary magazine; and that require the SPB to earn a certain amount of money through advertising. The Student Publications Board will be the owner, printer and publisher of the three publications under the agreement. Terms of this agreement will become effec tive July 1, 1974. The agreement was de; veloped through the efforts of a joint committee. Plans to begin writing up of the contracts and revising constitutions are to begin immediately. Paper shortage-costly books By John Eshelman This semester, as in past, students seem to be complaining aboul the sharp rise in the costof books. Well folks this semester, the paper shortage has beennan^ ed as the culprit. With a shortage comes a seemingly sudden rise incost. Mr. Joseph Nagy, Director of Parsons Union Building is a man confronted with book costs. In his words, "If anyone is aware of the] rising prices of books l a m " . Mr. Nagy explained that it was the policy of the bookstore to order books early and to always "askfor paperbacks because this makes the books cheaper." Mr. Nagy expressed cor>cern over the fact that no organization had a desire to have a used book sale. However, Mr. Nagy said that next year the bookstore j is going to become involved in buying and selling used books to the stuients. According to the director, this will nol only be cheaper for students,but it will also give him some idea of how many new books to order. Mr. Nagy further staled, "Our prices haven't changed one bit . Prices are all establis hed by the publisher. He added "the bookstores mark up on books is 15 to 20% and its always been this way to the best of my knowledge. Whatever little profit is made there is turned back into 'the Student directories will be available at the Publications office between 2&4, M-F beginning V^ed., Jan. 31.

As Mr. Nagy explained the profits are for the enhancement of all SCC supported programs. One book, Design and Creation of jewelry, has been dropped due to a sharp rise in cost. This volume rose from $7.50 to $12.50. Some olher increases are Modern Newspaper Editing, $8.95 to $9.95, Organization and Administration of Physical Education $9.50 to $10.50, and Organic Chemistry $16.95 to $18.5Q elected Stoppe and Heinley tied Afro-American Studies program A group of sludents & faculty are interested in establishing an Afro-American Studies program on campus.

To the Editor: Re: Reply to "Letter to the Editor" from Charles Eberle, Jan. 29, 1974 The basic philosophy of the Studeni Cooperative Council, Inc., of Lock Haven Slate College is this; The SCC is primarily a studentfunded organization. Monies are contributed by the currently enrolled students in the form of a mandatory activity fee of $60 per year. This money should be used for the benefit of these same sludents. Why should the students be forced to support activities and programs if faculty and adminislralas or alumni gel Tree tickets? Full-time studenis pay almost $2,000 per year lo attend college; and most of them have little or no income at all. Faculty, staff, administrators, etc., (all paid employees ), can afford to pay for admission lo events. In answer lo your paragraph referring to the SCC's refusal "lo give a few con> plimentary tickets once in awhile lo the Alumni Director so that he could take our local Alumni Association officers to a 'Bald Eagle' athletic event" we quote from a letter sent to all Clinton County Alumni by W. Max Bossert, President; "1 have a promise that all you folks who attend this meeting will receive a complimentary ticket to the basketball game." This letter was mailed and received by the alumni before the SCC was ever contacted about these tickets. Our ticket policy is drawn up and/or revised each fiscal year. The compliiwrntary tickets for this year have already been distributed. You consider "asinine • the "policy of requiring faculty and administrative personnel of our own college lo purchase activity tickets." In the first place, they are not REQUIRED to pay this fee; it's optional. And wc would like to point oul that there are 49 faculty, administrators, staff personnel, or emeriti who obviously don't consider such a policy "asinine." These individuals represent a record number of faculty/staff activity card purchasers. Such support is greatly appreciated and is evidence our policy is not discouraging support of campus activilies-quite the contrary, we're encouraging il with this reduced-rate activity card. The annual faculty activity fee of $25 for the individual or $35 for an entire family entitles the purchaser lo the same privileges as a student-free admission or admission al student rates lo all athletic, cultural, and social events, campus store charge account, check-cashing services, campus publications--to name a few. Consider this fact, Mr. Eberle--if a college employee paid lo attend every SCC event, program, play dance, game, etc., on campus, il would cost that individual a total of at least $90 to $100 Since you are the head coach of baseball and are nol involved with any tickets or ticket sales, perhaps you should have consulted a coach who is familiar wilh our ticket policy for athletics. All head coaches, assistant coaches, the trainer, and Mr. Nevel received complimentary athletic PASSES covering themselves and their families, which gives them general admission lo all athletic events al the college. The Athletic Director gels four complimentary general admission tickets for each event, game, or match. Each athlete receives two tickets for distribution as he desires, Each athlete receives two tickets per event. And that's each athlete for both the home AND visiting teamsvarsily and JV. "A few lousy complimentary tickets for an infrequent athletic event" quickly becomes a large number of complimentary tickets Referring to the necessity of total support which you mentioned monetary support is part of the total support and it is very definitely needed. If the Alumni of Lock Haven Stale choose not to support their college, it shouldn't be pushed off as the fault of the SCC. Il was most foolish of you, Mr. Eberle, lo have written your "Letter to the Editor" before first getting all the facts involved in this issue. However, in conclusion, we would hope that all people, including Alumni realize they are benefiting the students directly Ihrough their contributions al the doa for any athletic, cultural, or social event at Lock Haven Slate College.

His main argument comments concerning activity fees, we would like lo speak on the lopic from the point of view of a too long silent majority. As married studenis both attending Lock Haven State, we are both required lo pay separate activity fees. This amounts to $60 a semester, and $12 Can academic year. Anyone who is or has ever been a married student realizes the hardship and expense involved intryinglobe a husband or wife, as well as a student. After paying for a number of bills, rent, tuition, clothes,books and other miscellaneous items for two students , very little money is left for uxuries; such as food. Blend-C-Beef doesn't only taste worse than hamburger^ but it's greasier. We think il's just a little ridiculous to require two students who are married to piy for two, full, separate activity fees, while married students whose spouses are not students, but who are out working full time, are permitted to purchase only one continued on page 4 Wed., Jan. 30, 1974 EAGLE EYE Lock Haven State College page 3 Eagle roundballers meef strong Clarion by Bill Sterner At 8 p.m. tonight in Thomas Fieldhouse, the Clarion Golden E a g l e s will lock horns with the Lock Haven roundballers in what has developed as one of the most important Western Conference games. hitting 14 points even per game. Dave .Ankeney rounds out the attack. The small man at 6-2, A n k e n e y h a s hit on many clutch situations to aid the Golden E a g l e s . Both teams are locked in a tie for fourth place in the division with identical 3 win and 3 loss records. However, the conference is tighter in standings this year than any other. Edinboro leads the race with a 3-1 slate. Lock Haven will have a new look for this basketball game. Guard Frank Norris is back from an injury and this time, 6-2 center Mike Bergeron will be in there for the E a g l e s . In the previous 87-58 thrashing at Clarion, these two men were -ot present in Taylor's lineup. Warren Goodling has risen to the number five scorer in the Conference hitting for fifteen points a contest. ON AGAIN, OFF AGAIN Clarion has b e e n an on again, off again type team so far this year. The Golden E a g l e s ate carrying a 12-5 overall record into the LHS contest. One key to their s u c c e s s is definitly in the balanced offensive attack. However Coach Dick Taylor of Lock Haven grants a great deal of respect to their board strength. "They are a strong, physical t e a m " , the headman admitted, " h o w e v e r , their main attribute has to be under those b o a r d s . " Clarion has the s t a t i s tics to back Coach Taylor's claim. In six divisional games this year, Tony Rosetto, a 6-8 freshman forward leads the Pa. Western Conference in rebounds per game. Rosetto has ripped the boards for 69 rebounds and an 11.5 average per game. Teammate Lou Myers, 6-5, is second with a 10.7 per game. These two men give the Golden Eagles tremendous board strength. Offensively Clarion's roundballers are not lacking either. They are averaging a second ranked 77,0 points per game to d a t e . The two biggest guns this season has been Pete Belcher, a 6-5 forward and again, Lou Myers. Belcher h a s pumped in 14.5 points per game and ranks sixth in the conference. Myers is seventh and is NEW LHS LINEUP Coach Taylor analyze, ed the three things that must be done to defeat the Golden Eagles. "We will have to neutralize their board s t r e n g h t , " he stated. Coach Taylor went on to explain that the return of Bergeron would greatly increase the possibility of t h i s . In the C o a c h ' s words , "Bergeron is a strong kid and you need this in t h e r e . " Point two, the Eagles must force Clarion into taking the poor percentage shot. As the Menotr stated, "Our defense will have to run well. We had a bad game with Bloomsberg." He added, " B u t you know, all our games are big for us now. We came off the Edinboro game and hit the toughest part of our schedule. We're playing a game every three days and the boys are going to get tired." Point three, Lock Haven must run their defense well. Clarion plays an extremely aggressive man to man d e vense. This was quite evident in their r e c e n t 70-61 victory over Cheyney State. The Bald Eagle head coach summed up the probable type of game that will be played. "Clarion is potent , high scoring and powerful t e a m , " he stated. " T h e game should be a physical o n e . " Eagle wrestlers grapple with Vulcans Thursday By Gary Brubaker Coached by Frank Vulcano. a former three-time LHS conference champ, the California S t a t e College Wrestling team will invade Thomas Field House this Thursday night.

Pacing the attack for Coach Vulcano will he Bill Larkin, 8-3 at 150 pounds, and Bob Warnick 6-2-1 at 158.
