agenda was the announcement
of a tea which is tentatively

Masters Brought To Life
by Ron Herring
Bach, Shubert, Hayden and
others were brought to life on
Tuesday night.
Not literally of course, but
rather, through the musical talents of the Orchestra Sinfonia
di Como. As the musicians performed their musical incantations, the audience found itself
becoming increasingly enchanted
with the emotion-laden s o u n d s .
The program of music began
with Sinfonia in G major by Gallupi. This rather 'light* work revealed to the audience the complexity of the performing orchestra. Indeed, the timing and coordination presented seemed, at
times, almost superhuman.
One of the more pleasant aspects of the evening, from a varpects of the veneing, from a visual point of view, was Gisella
Belgeri.
However, looks count for nothing when it comes to music. Tal-

ent IS the important factor. Unfortunately, Miss Belgeri did not
display much of that. This is
not to imply her performance was
poor, it w a s n ' t . She played in a
very acceptable and passable
manner. But in no respect, did
she display the musical virtuosity that was attributed to her in
the advance publicity. Oh well,
PR men are supposed to be optimistic.
With the mentioned exception
of the pianist, the rest of the
orchestra did exhibit considerable musical brilliance. The high
point of the evening being the
viola s o l o i s t . Emilie Poggoni.
Hair flying, he gave the audience
an e x c e l l e n t , and energetic, display of his a b i l i t i e s .
As a whole, the evening was
well worth the trek to Price Auditorium. Even the hard core rock
fans enjoyed t h e m s e l v e s . Perhaps its the beginning of a fad;
and just think, it might have
its roots here at LHS.

Dr. Murray comes to Lock
Haven State College with ample
credentials.
He has been a
professor
of history at PSU
since
1949, and
from 19491969 he served a s the head of
the
Department
of
History.
His research has been primarily
in the field ot American s o c i a l
and political history in the
twentie'h
century,
and
has
resulted in the publication of a
number of papers and book
reviews in professional magaz i n e s . Dr- Murray is also the
author of two books
Red
Score:
A Study in National
Hy.^teria,
1919-1920
and his
mast recent The Harding Era.
The
International
Relations
Club cordially invites anyone
interested in hearing Dr. Murray's
speech to attend.

The directory was compiled
in accordance with a suggestion
accepted by the SCC during the
latter of the fall semester. The
reasons given for attempting to
compile such a directory were
the increase in student population, the fact that there was no
available central file at the
presen'. time, and the need of a
central file to help the Dean of
Men's and Dean of Women's
Offices.
Due to the lack of a central
source of information, many hoirrs

plied by the computer center. The
directory was compiled under the
direction of Gary Gadson and
Joe Scott, and thev realize that
accuracy will unfortunately be
the major problem with the directory. It has been suggested that
a table be set up at registration
each semester in order to obtain
the necessary infromation.
However, they wish to express
their appreciation to Mr. George
Zakem and the staff of the computer center and to Geno Trifilli
who supplied the computer program from which the directory
was
derived
and
completed.

Laredo's virtuosity on the violin

Ends Bright Season

by AI Smith
After priming himself a whole
season
to capture a Pennsylvania
State
Conference
championship which had evaded
him the year before. Lock Haven
State's
Paul
Brodmerkel
turned in an impressive victory
two weeks ago at East Stroudsburg and clinched the l 42-pound
class.
T h e victory was all the more
sweeter for the LHS grappler
since he won the crown away
from California's Dave Cook,
who had defeated Brodmerkel
last season for the conference's
145-pound title.
Brodmerkel had overcome an
old knee injury and put off an
operation
until late in
the
semester and was anticipating
a good tournament of wrestling
at
the
NAIA's
in Superior
Wisconsin.
'Really Getting in Shape'
• 'il felt I was really getting in
shape and felt good in the
conference,"
stated
the LHS
grappler. "My knee was coming
back and didn't
bother me
even though I was supposed to
have an o p e r a t i o n . "
Brodmsrkel was one of a few
wrestlers who had to wrestle in
the preliminaries to the preliminary matches. He went into
the second period of his bout
with Eastern Michigan's Jim
Bluhm with a 0-0 s c o r e .
A false start proved to be a
quirk of fate for the junior
grappler when he tried
an
inside
standup
and
Bluhm
shot him very hard.
Brodmerkel fell to the mat
and later related, " I t felt as if
somebody hit me with a hammer.
It
was a real sharp pain.
Immediately I thought it was
broken although a lot of times
you can't t e l l , but I knew it was
hurt."
Decided to Continue
After talking the situEjion over
with head mentor Gray Simons,
Brodmerkel decided to continue
even though Simons suggested
that he quit.
At
the
conclusion of
the
second period the referee told
Brodmerkel to s e e his coach
and both men again pondered
whether
the grappler should
continue. They finally decided
he should cotninue along wjth
tape around the outside of his
shoe.

They had decided that since
Brodmerkel was on
the top
position, maybe he could turn
Bluhm over and get some predicament points and run for the
remainder of the match.
Pure agony went through the
injured ankle and at the start
of
the
final stanza
Bluhm
escaped
in
three
seconds.
" I couldn't come to my feet
after
he got out and
then
I knew it was all over.
The
guy
kept
riding
my ankle
and just crammed it and was
really putting the pressure on.
With 35 seconds to go I tried
a lateral drop and landed on my
back."
T h e final outcome was 1 1-1
and
Brodmerkel was out of
competition for the remainder
of
the season missing
the
NC.A.A tournament next week at
Norhtwestern University.

I fel t bad becauce of the team's
showing and felt bad for G r a y . "
In speaking of LHS's three
e n t r e e s in the NCAA tournament
Brodmerkel
s t a t e d , "If Larry
(Rippey) wrestles the way he
did in the semi-finals at the
NAIA, there is not a guy in
the world who will beat him.
His
opponents
were
really
tough and he completely outclassed them."
Ability and Moves of a Champ

"Donnie has the ability and
the moves of a champion but
he is in the toughest weight
c l a s s of the tournament," he
commented about Donnie Fay,
LHS
118-pounder.
If he
d o e s n ' t win it he'll probably
place in the top four.
The
thing that makes it tough for
him is that there are so many
returning place winners in his
class."

ican Book Project sponsored by
the American Association of
Health, Physical Education and
Recreation, LHS collected books
for donation to a foreign institution which is developing a
physical
education
program.
The
institution
designated
this year by the Association was
the Pedagogical Institute of
Caracas in Venezuela.
The college recently received
a letter from Manuel Gallegos,
chairman of the physical education department at the Caracas
Institute, expressing his and his
staff's appreciation for the books
sent from LHS.
"We feel that the donation of
used books related to health and
physical education has helped,
in a small way, to cement better
relations between the U.S. and a
South American country, specifically between Lock Haven and
C a r a c a s , V e n e z u e l a , " said Dr.
Matthew Maetozo, director of the
division of health and physical
education at LHS.
