Non-credit courses
otferedto students

I

As a community service.
Lock Haven State College will
offer a series of short, ron-credit courses in a variety of
subjects, both enjoyable and
educational, beginning the
week of October 4.
Some courses are being
offered again by popular demand. Olive Schribner is once
again teaching a course on
"Investing with Coufidence"
on Tuesday evenings from 7
pm to 9 pm. According to Mrs.
Schribner, the conscientious
student will have no difficulty
in comprehending the material
presented and will be able to
supervise his or her own
investment program upon
completion of the coarse.
The non-credit courses are
also open to students enrolled
in the college. Any student
may take one course free of
charge provided that there is a
sufficient number of paying
customers enrolled in the
course and the student has
permission from his advisor
and the dean of his school.
"Indoor Gardening" is being offered for the second
time, Wednesdays from 7:30
to 10 pm beginning October
13, by Dr. Kenneth Settlemyer. The course is intended for
both the beginner and the
experienced plant enthusiast.
A practical course in which
the participants are taught
lettering skills that may be
applied toward a broad range
of advertising materials will be
taught Thursdays, 7pm to
9pm, by James Hamilton. The
course is entitled "Lettering
and Poster Design".
Ronald Jodun, highly qualified in the preparation of state
and federal income tax returns, will offer a course on
"Taxes for the Layman" on

Thursdays, 7 pm to 9 pm.
Those successfully completing
the course will be able to
prepare their own income tax
returns with a large degree of
confidence.
Robert Storch, an attorney
at the college whose second
love is pop music, will offer
once again a strictly fun course
called "The British Invasion:
Early MotowiL Sound." The
course deals with the arrival of
the Beat'es on the American
music scene in 1964, with
focus on the actual music of
such groups as the Beatles,
the Yardbirds, the Temptations, and the Supremes.

LORML seeksi todecriminalize pot
By KEITH VERNON
Staff Reporter
The Lock Haven Organization for the Reform of
Marijuana Laws (LORML) is
playing an active role in the
Ijattle against what they
consider unjust laws regarding
the possession of marijuana.
A major goal of this student
organization is the decriminalization of marijuana possession. Under the present
Pennsylvania law, according to
Patrolman Richard Hepner, a
person convicted of possessing
under one ounce of marijuana
is subject to a $100 fine and/or
up to 30 days in jail. LORML
hopes to make possession of
under one ounce of marijuana
punishable by no more than a

$100 civil fine, which could not
be entered on the defendent's
criminal record,
Pennsylvania is one of eight
states in the process of
decriminalizing marijuana
possession. According to a
spokesperson from LORML, a
pumber of bills urging
decriminalization are currently
on the floor of the state
legislature.
One ofthe strong supporters
of LORML's cause is Alan
Ellis, a lawyer at State
College. At a recent press
conference EUis stated, "The
present Pennsylvania marijuana laws ^ are irrational,
excessively severe and scientifically incorrect. Government

Letters to the Editor
New facts told on drug raid
To the Editor:
Although your atricle concerning the recent drug raid
was lacking in opinion, as all
news stories are, I would
consider it a damaging story to
one of the people mentioned in
it. There were two reasons for
this: 1) The facts that were left
out, and 2) The opinions that
were missing since it was a
news story.
For this reason, we would
like to add some fact and
opinion in an effort to clear up
some rumors which have beer
spread.
1) The article led readers to
believe that the two people
were arrested for incidents
which occurred recently. In
truth, one of the incidents
materialized almost a year ago
as a naive freshman was led to
believe he was doing a favor
for a friend and instead was
being set up with an
undercover agent.
2) The article may have led
people to believe that this
same person was also a
well-known drug dealer who
made his spending money by
selling illicit drugs to his
fellow students. Well, that is
totally unbelievable in the
opinion of we who know him,
and in the opinion of those who
know who the real drug
dealers on campus are. The
fact of the matter is that he
simply didn't deal.
3) Why was the persons bail

Apathy abounds
at Lock Haven
To the Editor
I have a few comments
concerning the so-called "Day
of
Student
Activism."
Tuesday Sept. 28th was set
aside by the Penna. state
colleges and university (PSCU)
system for the students to
prove once and for all that
apathy is truely dead on state
college compuses. The sad
truth, however, is that this day
proved that apathy is alive and
flourishing (at least here at
LHSC). To my knowledge not
a damn thing took place on this
campus concerning activism.
No political speakers. No
voter registration campaigns.
Nothing! Oh yes, there was
one group of bombed asses
putting on a freak show in the
loby of Bentley (while a Coffee
House was going on no less!)
This bunch is a great example
of what apathy has created
here on campus. These were

The SCC
and You
By Lorin Mock
A few weeks ago as the Executive Committee was reviewing the
forthcoming proposed Constitutional Revisions (which are posted
<\ over campus and I urge you to read them so that you may vote
il elligently in the constitutional referendum on October 19) we
came upon the idea of uping the number of Faculty Advisors to
five, the Constitutional limit. We felt that the addition of two
carefully chosen advisors could greatly expand the ability of the
advisors to give us counsel on areas in which problems may arise
in the future. So with that goal in mind we asked and received
positive replys from Ms. Taylor and Mr. Washburn.
I would just like to take a few minutes to acquaint you with two
new faces to the SCC. They are not students but rather members
of the Lock Haven State Faculty. They are Mr. John Washburn
and Ms. Sharon Taylor both newly appointed advisors to the SCC.
Ms. Taylor was approached to become an SCC advisor because
of her special knowledge in the areas of Womens Athletics, and
her experience with Title IX and Affirmative Action Programs. We
realize this is an area the SCC will more and more have to address
itself to in the future.
Our other new advisor is Mr. Washburn and it is our hope he
will bring his professional advice to our operation. Mr. Washburn
is a member of the Political Science Department and we hope he
can level that knowledge to the election committee as well as our
government operation in general. In light of recent developments
in our electoral process another look at our election system may be
in order. With this he will work with our new elections committee
chairperson Jeff Caukins to improve the participation in our
elections systems. His knowledge of government may prove
helpful in giving us advice as to possible improvements in our
operations so that we may be more responsible to the students
needs.
Hopefully the addition of these two people, combined with our
current advisors Mr. Karl Herrmann, Mr. Larry Lebin, and Mr.
Dave Arseneault we will have a wide range of expertise, so that
they may give us the guidance we need in problems that develop
in our organization. K follows naturally from this that the eventual
benefit to the students is a better and more responsive student
government for us all.

Student Senate), showed
