His repertoire had many of his hit singles dispersed throughout, such as "W.O.L.D.", "Taxi", and "The Cat's in the Cradle." Along with these he played songs from his albums and tried out a few new ones. Chapin had a close rapport with his audience, he talked easily and freely.

It will trace the development of American music from 1759 to the present. Her opening song will be one written by Frances Hopkinson, a signer of the Declaration of Independence.

Included within Villamil's performance will be songs from composers, William Billings, Stephen conf. on page 4 By TINA BROOKS Feature Editor Dr. Perry Brown, a Professional Studies professor at Lock Haven State, presented a program entitled "Education for Tomorrow: Today" as part of the Faculty Lecture Series on Thursday, February 19, in Ulmer Planetarium. After being introduced by Dr. Harvey Sterns, Dr. Brown said that he would be dividing his program into three parts giving his reactions to statistics in education, the history of education since Sputnik, and the future of education. "In the United States it takes about 25 to 40 years for an educational practice to become accepted," Dr. Brown reported. Schools tend to be ultra-conservative, he added, and the only innovative programs are those funded by the federal government. Dr. Brown showed a chart which indicated that enrollment in elementary sch(X)ls reached its peak in 197.1, secondary will reach its peak in 1976, and colleges and universities in 1984. "There is a significant improvement in education the snialler the classes are," stated Dr. Brown about the predicted decline in enrollment. Dr. Brown started the second phase of his program by explaining that when the Russians launced Sputnik, their first manned space craft, Americans feared that the Russians would take over the world. As a result Americans began math and science emergency programs and, in general, make radical changes in Ihc educational program. "I'ducation moved from complacency to chaos," Dr. Brown commented, "And many people feel that is where we still are today." Many of the programs which were started in haste have failed drastically. One example is modern math. When the program first began it was widely accepted but is now meeting with dissaproval and is being phased out. Dr. Brown added, "Inadequate teachers have been at the root of most of the failure of innovative programs." Future education will be more humanistic feels Dr. Brown. "Education," Dr. Brown stated, "Must deal with a good life and not just a materialistically satisfying life." Dr. Brown would like to conr. on page 4 EAGLE EYE page 2 JOHN WINTER Winter presents slide show on Africans diverse culture By BONNIE GORSIC Staff Reporter "Africa is a continent of immense diversity. It's a continent changing and developing with incredible opportunities and an enormous variety of people, terrain, wildlife," stated John Winter at his slide presentation on Kenya last Thursday in Bentley Hall Lounge. The slide presentation was broken down into two parts. First Winter showed slides and talked about the life he led in an East African village near Nairobi, Kenya. "A place where you can throw a frisbee and the thing will still be going a quarter mile later," is Winter's description of the area. Following that, he showed slides of parts of the African continent he had traveled in. Why did Winter go to Kenya? "l wanted a break between scnool and university, and I wanted to live in a simplified culture." So in 1970, he worked for $50.00 per Letter to the editor To The Editor: In regard to last Friday's letter to the editor -SO WHAT! II John Vukovic Don D'Innocenzo Photography Co-Editors month as an undergraduate under the direction of a missionary society, out of London. He spent seven months teaching and five months on safari. He had no teaching degree; "I just got in there and taught." Winter taught general academic subjects to junior high students ranging from 12 to 30 years of age so they could pass an exam to get into high school. Students would bring their families to class as the teaching was very informal. Subjects were taught in English, Winter was the only European teacher among an African staff. Slides of the school and some of the students and staff were shown. Winter lived and worked with the Kikuyu people. "The area I was living in was previously the site of the Kikuyu people's resistance to the British. To be accepted as a member of the community illustrates how people get over things," said Winter. He found the people to be very friendly, very keen to learn, and willing to associate with Europeans. However, they did not like imported ways; they liked to find thinds out for themselves. The people were very hard-working. "Where I was, the women did all the work and the men did nothing," Winter said. Slides were shown of the women carrying sugar cane. Other slides were of the village, and some of the village people. Monday, Feb. 23,1976 Music has had a very Bicentennial nature to itself this month. The College Band presented instrumental pieces highlighted by the Aaron Copeland's "Lincoln Portrait". The Haverlin/BMI Collection visited the campus for two weeks, and closed Friday. This evening Victoria Villamil, a Mezzo-Soprano, will present American works this evening as a part of the Lock Haven Artist Series. Thursday the College Choir will present a five part American Heritage Concert free of charge in the Sloan Theatre. It is arranged in five musical eras. The five parts include "Revolutionary Times," "19th Century American Music", "20th Century Composers," "Stage and Popular Music" and "Folk Style Music." The first part will be dramatized with fife and drum by Blair Wilson and Diane Shermeyer and will include an Aaron Copeland selection and an arrangement by LHSC music professor and College Choir advisor, Gary Renzelman. The second part is highlighted by Stephen Foster works and some Scott Joplin music with Bonnie Roberts doing "The Entertainer". Local emphasis is added to the third part with music in Pennsylvania Dutch text. The last two segments have music from the Broadway musical "How Now, Dow Jones", Jerome Kern, John Denver, and Gospel Blues. The complete show features the commentary of Joe Parell. Eric Sundberg, LHSC alumni and Lewisburg teacher will appear with Greg Guisewite. Mary Renzelman and Kate Zug will be featured at the four handed piano. The choir plans to surround the audience with sound. Along with the main stage, performers will appear on the side stages, upper boxes, and in the aisles of the Sloan house. Tim Noone, harmonica virtuoso, will play his special brand of Bluegrass sounds and accompany for Denver's "Country Roads". Freshman, Blair Wilson, has prepared the choir with a special Gospel presentation. Especially in popular music, the styles and moods of the arts are constantly changing and adapting to fit the moods and feeling of its creators and audiences. In retrospect, their changes over a period of time, when collected, represent moods and feelings of a people. These are some of the sentiments of the American people the College Choir will present this week. Winter lived in a small wooden shack built for European teachers. There were no windows, the floor was made of concrete. One time the house was invaded by safari ants. Kenya has a low cost of living. The average salary in Kenya is $50.00 a year. A taxi ride covering 300 miles costs five dollars. "These figures were given in 1970. prices have probably gone up since," informed Winter. The three modes of transportation in local villages are buses, taxis, and walking. Most people walk or hitchhike. "The buses are a riot," stated Winter. "Someone gets on with turkeys and you drag them along, too." Slides were shown of the buses and the taxis. The island of Lamu was the subject of several slides. "A very exotic Arab and Aftican blend.
