Go/lows Humor
In Eagle Wing?
by Tootsey Jackson
The scene was a cell
in the death house.
The
prisoner had two hours before
he would be hung. To make
these last few moments
pleasurable, the warden decided to give the condemned
man a gift- a prostitute. Can
he think about sex at a time
of death? Well that's what
the script is all about.
The play, "Gallows
Humor", written by Jack
Richardson, was presented
by the Reader's Theatre
under the direction of Dr.
Robert Kidder.
Held in the Eagle Wing,
the setting consisted of only
three stools and a few lights.
The actors used no costumes

but a great deal of imagination.
Conversation between
the a c t a s dealt mainly with
the prostitute, Nancy Wiener,
trying to convince the convict,
Joe Nicely, that he should
accept the final proposal.
The convict, being a wellbred society man, offered a
million reasons why he
shouldn't.
The warden, Ben Aptaker,
has a hand in it too, as it is
his job to see that the prostitute keeps the convict's
mind off of dying.
Finally, after all the.
talking and convincing, the
play ends with the convict
giving in.

GlobetrotterTrots To Lock Haven
by Mike Crone
" I can guarantee you,
you're going to see a terrific
show !" These words were
spoken by " T e x " Harrison
a twenty year member of the
Harlem Globetrotters, who
was on the LHSC campus
Wednesday morning. " T e x "
was here to promote the
Globetrotters appearence in

Thomas Field House on Sunday, Oct. 21, 1973, bringing
their basketball magic to
Lock Haven.
Opening the show, of
course, will be the famous
"Globetrotter Circle," which
will be perfamed to the
strains of the Trotters theme
song,
"Sweet
Georgia
Brown." Tex has promised

that there will be a lot of
"Now you see it, now you
don't!" The Globbies also
bring their own halftime
entertainment
with them.
During the hlaflime intermission, the crowd will see
befae their very eyes a
juggler, acrobats, and a
high wire balancing act.
A few of the Trotter
stars who will perfam are:
Marcus Haynes, who in the
words of Tex Harrison, " i s
the world's greatest dribbler.
Marcus is between 47 and
57 years old and can still
really move that ball. He
is a show in himself."
Speaking of shows, Robert
"Showboat" Hall will also
be appearing along with a
couple of the^ Sat. morning
cartoon characters " G e e s e "
Ausbie, and Pablo Robertson,
a fine dribbler in his own
right.

The foe tor Sunday's
giime will be the New York
Nationals. The Nationals
are a leam of Professionals,
and contrary to popular
belief, they do not come on
to the court to be the "fools"
nor do they come on the
court to lose. "When we
take the floor,"says Tex,
"We never start our antics
until we have control of the
game. Our first objective is
lo win the game, our second
is lo please the crowd."
To back up this statement,
Tex gave the Globetrotters
first loss in 7 years as an
example: "We got careless
with the Nationals the year
befae last, and they beat
us by one point."
Summing up the Globetrotters show, Tex says, "Not"
only is it world renowned,
but we entertain as well as
exhibit athletic skill, and
of all the shows left in this
country - we are one of the
few that had remained Grated. If we are well recieved
and know we have made a
few people happy, that's
all the payment we need."

"The play has taken
shape ans is ready for the
audience," said Dr. Denys
Garv. director of "Philadelphia, JHere I Come." The
play will be staged Oct. 15
16, and 17, at 8:00 in Price
Auditorium.
The play tells the story
of a young Irish boy, Gareth
O'Donnell, who fleas tf) the
United Stales to escape his
problems. Gareth is shown
both publicly and privately
with roles played by Charles
Charette and Brian Stoppe
respectively.
Dr. Gary said thai costumes are very important
because they emphasize the
character, Miss 1-clice
Procia, a professor at Lock
Haven designed the costumes,
and the committee started
making ihem three weeks
ago. The costumes are made
lo represent lower middle
class peopel.
John Gordon, also an
iasiructa at Lock Iiaven,
designed the set which is
more suggestive than realistic. The crew has worked
many hours on tlie set.
Dr. Gary feels the cast
has developed great enthusiasm for the play, lie said
that the range of experience
among the cast is very wide.
There are students who have
never performed on stage
before this play, and one
cast member has a degree
in theater. He continued to
say, "The play has been done

well with certain parts of
the play done extremely well.
They add great effect lo the
production." The cast has
overcome many of the problems
with wchih ihey were first
faced, and certain precautions have been taken to
ease problems that might
occur in the final week of
practice. For instance, props
have been used in many of
the rehearsals so the members
of the cast could become
aquainted with them.
Olher cast members are:
Gareth's father, Moriachi
Lipshutz; Kathy, Gareth's
love, Heloyne Maci/rthur;

Midge, the housekeeper.
Deb Klens; Gareth's aunt
and uncle, Cindy Probst and
Gary Mazzu, The role of the
school teacher is played by

Gillot plays the parish priest,
Gary Robinson, Kim Coon and
Jim Shannan are seen as
friends of Gareth and Dan
Keefer plays Benn Burton, a
friend to Gareth's aunt and
uncle.
Dr. Gary stated, "It's
the kind of play that both
the college and community
can enjoy It has its light
moments, but it is basically
a serious play, a series of
little worlds that never really
come together."

Jan.-Aug.
Graduation
Now History
January
and August
commencements are now a
part of Lock Haven history.
In the future commencement cermonies will be in
May.

This news from the Vice
President
for
Academic
Affairs, Dr. George Robinson, confirms rumors that
have been circulating for
some lime.
Although there will be no
commencement in January
or August, graduates will
receive graduate status at
the end of the semester in
which they complete their
requirements. The diplomas
will be conferred in absentia
and be distributed directly
or mailed to the students.
Why the change? Calendar revision. Because the
semester ends just before
Christmas, there is no ideal
time for a formal ceremony.
Scheduling a day or two
before or sometime after
Christmas
would
impose
hardships or inconvenience
to students and teachers.
Last
August,
many
graduates requested absentia
degrees because they wanted
a rest away from school before plunging into jobs.
All graduates will be
invited to participate in the
May commencement following
the completion of required
courses.
The
Academic
Affairs Office stresses that
absentia degrees are just as
valid as degrees recieved at
a formal ceremoney.

EAGLE EYE

lock Haven Stale College, Pa.

Booters Boot Grove City ,
Meet Toughest Competition Sat.
In a soccer match a
team usually plays one
opponent at a lime. This
wasn't the case Wednesday
as the Eagle Booters defeated an aggressive Grove City
eleven plus the 2 officiating
referees in a 4-2 Eagle
victory.
The officials were substandard and were more
concerned throughout the
game with telling the Eagles
how to play than in "refing"
the game.
A classic example of
the officiating
ineptness
occured on the first Grove
City score. Not one, not
two,
but three Wolverine
players were offsides when
the goal was tallied-with
the referee failing lo call
the
penalty. All things
considered the referees did
seem to be prejudiced toward
the home leam.
Despite the Wolverines'
6-4-2 defense, IQ players
and 2 referees, Mike Seigfried scored the games first
goal at 16:16 of the first
period. A four yard head
shot from the right side from
Al Rice's assist gave the
Eagles a 1-0 lead.
They upped their lead
to 2-0 as Bob Weaver assisted Dave Chambers' 15 yard
left-footed kick from the
left side at 25:04 of the
first half.
Grove City came right
back with a shot from 15
yards, scoring their "offs i d e s " goal at 30:30 of the
first period by Gary Eising,
which narrowed the gap to
2-1.
With just 2 seconds
remaining in the half, Dan
Smyers scored for Grove
City from the left side, 3
yards out, and the half ended
in a 2-2 deadlock.
This was the first time
that anyone had scored on
the Eagles in the first half
so far this season.
The Eagles who might
have taken Grove City too
lightly from the start and
who were looking ahead to
East Stroudsburg found out
that the Wolverines were for
real.
The Eagles came out
burning in the second half
and dominated most of the
second period. They scored
21:52 into the second half

when Don Copeland scored
on a 15 yard left-footed kick
from the left side. This gave
the Eagles a lead, 3-2,
which they never relinquished.
Less than four minutes
later Bob Wright scored on a
beautiful shot from 4 yards
out on Darrell ''The Mole"
Nagle's corner kick. The
Eagles now led 4-2 with
neither team able to score
again in the second half.
Lock Haven fired 28 shots
at the Wolverine goal while
G.C.C. retaliated with 18.
COACHES' CORNER
"I was pleased with the
way we kept our poise in the
second half," stated LHS
Coach Karl Herrmann, "We
came back and played the
way we are capable of
playing.
"I think we were a
little complacent going into
the game. We were looking
ahead to the East Stroudsburg game this Saturday and
weren't concentrating on the
taslf af hand.

"No team plays well
every game," Herrmann continued. We played shat some
teams might call a good
game, but the leam and 1
feel that we played a mediocre first half as far as our
standards are concerned."
Assistant Coach Mike
Parker stated that in his
opinion, "We've not been
working as a leam but as
individuals in some spots.
These are the places that
we have been having the
problems."
"Grove City was ei^itremely aggressive but when
•be chips were down we rose
to the occasion. This,"
added Herrmann, " i s definitely a sign of class.
"Everyone is up tor us
because of our record and
reputation. This is a great
compliment if a team does
'get up' for a match with
us."
In commenting on Wednesday's
game Herrmann
remarked,
"Both
Coach
Parker and myself were
pleased with Bob Wright's
distribution of the ball to the
front line today. Not only
has he the good physical
ability to play the game,
but he thinks a good game,
too. He's one of our top men

when the going gets tough.
Lenny Long also played
well today-perhaps the best
game he's had all season."
Coach Herrmann also
praised Nottingham exchange
student Elwin Jones. "Elwin
never played center forward
before today's game. Although he didn't score he
injected life into the front
line with his passing and
continuous hustle."
"Don Copeland got the
big play for us today,"
Herrmann stated. "When the
score was tied and we needed a score he did the job."
"We are still looking
for two good halves together,"
Herrmann
concluded. "We had a mediocre
first half today but then
came back with a good
second period."
The Eagles will definitely need two strong
periods this Saturday when
they host East Stroudsburg at 2:00 PM on McCoUum
field.
Since the series began
in 1939 East St roudsburg
holds a 14-8-5 record over
the EaHes, Lasl year the
Eagles lost to East Stroudsburg in a regular contest 1-0
and 4-0 in the Penna. Conference Championships.

Eagles were defeated by
Mansfield Slate, 23-24, and
a powerful freshman-dominated Edinboro State team, 18-45.
LHS senior Mike Gaige
had lo settle for a third in
the Mansfield meet as he
developed a severe stitch
at the three mile mark on the
Mounties hilly 5.0 mile
course. Bill Landis was
the only other Bald Eagle
to get in the top ten placing
ninth.
On
Wednesday LHS
defeated Sasquehanna University, 24-32, on an exceprionally fast Susquehanna
course,
Mike Gaige shattered
the old course record set by
Jeff Yoder of Susq. by 1:13.
His time of 24:23 on the
4.9 mile corese was a tr emendous effort. "Mike was
just fantastic," commented
LHS coach Jum Dolan.
Dolan also praised the
running of sophmore Dennis
Harman who placed ninth in
