Local AFSCME chapter receives award by Amy Satkofsky Eagle Eye News Editor_ The American Federation of State, County, and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) Local 2360, which consists of unionized University employees, was recently awarded a bronze level plaque from the National Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Society for their participation in the 1996 MS Walk. The AFSCME team, consisting of 14 members, walked their way into the bronze level position by raising $1,385 in the annual MS Walk held in Lewisburg, Pa; (he site of AFSCME 2360 headquarters. The money will help Central Pennsylvania's MS headquarters find a cure for MS. The 14 members walked approximately 10 miles to raise money for people wilh MS. They raised the money through people pledging a certain amount for each completed mile. Direct donations were also given as a result of the MS walk. The team consisted of seven men and seven women ranging in age from 26 to 62. This is the third year that AFSCME has participated in the MS Walk. The first team was comprised of only eight members. Involvement in the race grew the following year and 12 AFSCME members The AFSCME Local 2360 team consists of: Jim Bauman, Nelson Bauman, Paul Eichenlaub, Jim Packer, Becky Welsh, Janet Courier, Frances Shady, Susan Confer, Roy Lachet, Cheryl Smith, Dean Reynolds, Bill Gardner, Barb McAuley, and Donna Weaver (not shown in order). (photo courtesy of National MS Society) joined in the MS walk. Participation continued to increase yielding this year's team of 14 AFSCME members. Cheryl Smith, Secretary of AFSCME 2360 and a participant in all three MS Walks, was very excited about the amount of money raised in the 1996 MS Walk. She said of the bronze level award, "We are proud. We raised a significant amount of money for a worthy cause. I hope that we can raise even more money next year for the National MS Society." AFSCME members will participate in the MS Walk again next year, which will be held in April. They are hoping to raise enough money to put them beyond the bronze level award next year. Their bronze level plaque will be displayed outside of the AFSCME office, located in the basement of Russell Hall. 2 Eagle Eye Friday, October 18, 1996 iews ^g^'il^f.

Disorderly Conduct -- Oct. 14: There was a rejrort of a fight in progress in one of the residence halls. When the officer arrived the scene was under control. The students were warned that if the fighting continued they could be cited for disorderly conduct. The students were referred to Student Life. Possession of Alcohol ~ Oct. 12: There was a call from a resident assistant in a residence hall that there were several empty beer cans found in a room. The officer responded and found a male student who was quite hard to wake up. The individual was taken to the Lock Haven Hospital to be checked for blood-alcohol poisoning. The blood alcohol level of the student was .217. The individual was cited for underage drinking. Criminal Mischief — Oct. 11: Someone damaged the door at the racquetball court in the Zimmerli Building. Someone had kicked the door and caused enough damage that the door had to be replaced with a cost of $450. This matter is currently under investigation. Harassment by Communication -Oct. 11: There was a report that obscene stories were being sent to faculty and staff on E-mail. It appears that students were sending these stories to each other and in the process the stories would get sent to faculty and staff also. This can be considered harassment and students can get cited for it. If anyone has received these stories and would like to press charges against those who have sent them, contact Law Enforcement. Disorderly Conduct - Oct. 10: Two students were arguing in the area of Ulmer Hall. Some pushing took place between the individuals, but the fighting ended there.

Dark heavy gray smoke could be seen for miles around Richard Avenue. Roommates were crying and hugging each other as they watched three fire com panics (Vigilant Hose, Cumberland Valley Hose, and West End Fire and Rescue squad) from the area put out the fire. According to Geoff Burns, the first firefighter to reach the scene, it was the largest fire he had seen in years. West End Fire Chief Jaime White said. There was heavy fire and total loss but no injuries." Nine girls lived in the house. They were provided with counseling sessions to cope with the loss. They were also offered temporary housing in Seavers Apartments and their I.D. cards were replaced. Meal plans were also given to them. The cause of the fire is still under investigation. -courtesy The Slate Keg found in West Chester dormitory W E S T C H E S T E R - A quarter keg of beer was confiscated by a Resident Assistant on the second floor of Goshen Hall last Friday. The incident occurred at 10:30 p.m. A West Chester University student who wishes to remain anonymous purchased the keg on Friday with the intention of taking it to the West Chester football game on Saturday. A Resident Assistant from the third floor was on rounds when she apparently heard loud noise coming form the room and discovered the keg. She notified the Resident Director and Law Enforcement. When Law Enforcement arrived, they collected everyone's student identification cards and escorted one female minor to the Public Safety Building and notified her parents. Two of the students involved received fines up to four hundred dollars and possible suspension of their licenses for 90 days. The remaining students have not received their fines as of yet, and are waiting for their charges. One University student, who wishes to remain anonymous, claimed, "It was one of the dumbest things I've ever done. I wouldn't advise anyone to try it." -courtesy The Quad Friday, October 18, 1996 Eagle Eye 3 A look into the past through the Eagk Eye... ? What was happening at LHU ? Twenty years ago - Oct. 18, 1976 Fifteeen years ago - Oct. 16, 1981 One of the more flamboyant projects initiated on the Lock Haven State College campus is now completed. A 10 thousand dollar restored archway now lies adjacent to the Stevenson Library. One may ask as to where they acquired the money for such a venture, when all one hears about is how short of funds the college is. The Lycoming Chapter of the Alumni Association is the instigator, as in 1970 they employed a local architect to develop blueprints of the design to restore the archway. Initially, in 1968, Professor Robert Johnston had requested that the college save the stone from the Sullivan Hall Archway when the building was being torn down. The college complied and in 1975 plans for financing the operation were finally made. The 10 thousand dollars required to restore the arch is basically for the actual construction of the project. The importance of the project according to Mr. Fran Cornelius, director of financial aid, is the fact that the alumnus have an emotional attachment to the building because for seven or eight decades, it was the focal point of all the activities on campus. Two people were injured when a clutch and pressure plate exploded in a truck being used by the International Club in the Homecoming Parade last Saturday. Th explosion actually occurred while the parade was taking place. Richard Hepner, director of Law Enforcement, said that originally it was reported that there was only one injury. The reported injury was a flesh wound received from flying metal. The person was treated at Lock Haven Hospital and released later that same day. It was later learned that a second person was injured in the explosion as well, according to Hepner. This person also received a flesh wound from flying metal, but did not seek medical attention. Hepner said that the probable cause of the explosion was that the clutch and pressure plate of the truck became overheated due to the continual stopping and starting involved in the parade. He learned this after examining the debris from the truck explosion. He warned future parade volunteers of the dangers that could result from the stopping and starting during parade routes.

During the summer a person took purchase orders from WLHC, the campus radio station, and bought office supplies from a downtown business. Law Enforcement now has a suspwct in this case. The person lives outside of Williamsport, Pa. according to Richard Hepner, director of Law Enforcemera. Hepner also states that he and Officer Jeff Johnson have made numerous calls to the suspect's house but have been unsuccessful in locating the person. Hepner said that he and Johnson may have to visit the suspect's house in order to bring the person back to campus to deal with the case. No further information was given. Law Enforcement is also looking into the ongoing problem of garbage being thrown on dormitory grounds. The weekend maintenance reported large amounts of rubbish scattered on the grounds of one of the dorms. Lieutenant Dennis Grenninger said the grounds are always a mess after the weekend. Maintenance then has to clean up the mess that the students leave.

'. —Opinion/Editorial Leftovers for those of us leftover At this time last week, while many of the University's students were on their way home for the more than welcomed three day weekend we were granted, those of us left behind here were faced with horrendous time constraints on our dining hours along with a completely unacceptable menu put out by the University's dining service. Granted, vacations usually do call for condensed hours in business places. However, when a vacation, which lasts one day officially, ceases all normal meal hours and forces students to select and attempt to eat foods that I personally would not feed to a dog, then there seems to open a way for countless complaints and disappointments. It is a known fact that Bentley is more than often the subject of attacks and verbal abuse by the students who dine there on a daily basis. It is sad to say that after this weekend, I can see justifiable reasons for these complaints and I sympathize with all the students who entered Bentley at 4:30 p.m. last Friday only to be greeted by leftovers that were transferred upstairs when the Eagle Rock Cafe, located in downstairs Bentley, closed for the weekend at 3:30 p.m. What kind of dining service serves pieople food that was leftover from another part of their establishment, and was meant to be eaten an hour before it was served? The obvious answer in this situation is Bentley. Well, this appalls me, especially considering that my meal plan is by no means cheap. I understand that food is ^fom^tlt Eagle Eyes^ffiI We are looking for a Circulation! Manager!

However, I expect the money I pay for it, whether it be a moderate amount or not, to buy me food that is fresh and tasteful. Not greasy, disgusting, repulsive and just downright awful! 1 cannot believe that just because some of us were not fortunate enough to get home and eat real food last weekend, we were given the punishment of horrible food. This is by no means acceptable and 1 feel that I, along with any other student who braved the apfiearance of the food in Bentley last Friday and actually put it in their mouths, have every reason to complain. As if the food itself was not bad enough, we were slapped in the face with a dinner time that lasted from 4:30 p.m. until some time after 5 p.m. I say until sometime because, according to the person taking identification cards at the door, the time allotted to us for eating was 4:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. At the same time, according to students who entered after 5 p.m., signs were posted indicating that Bentley was not to close right at 5 p.m. Whether they closed officially at 5 p.m. or not, students should not be forced to eat dinner, which, in most cases, is eaten in the home when the family is all seated together at the table, at an absurd time (I 4:30 p.m. The family dinner can only occur if the family is all together. For those, which are many, who work until 5 p.m., dinner is usually not served until sometime close to 6 p.m. So why is it that Bentley feels we should eat dinner at 4:30 p.m.? How many people are that hungry at 4:30 p.m. that they crave Bentley food and lo('k forward to eating it at this absurd time? Maybe the time constraints were easy to work around. The disgusting, greasy food we were served was not. There is no r^iason why, just because we stayed here, where we pay to eat, live and be educated, we should be deprived of food that is edible by any human standards. Heather Lee Longo Eagle Eye Editor in Chief The Conservative Column by Dan Barrile Oolumnist says a p p e a r a n c e is n o t everything Well the Presidential Election has deepened to very serious depths: No this is not about the budget, social security, the pro-life/pro-choice debate, or even the new scandals surrounding the Clinton Campaign. The new issue is, which candidate can sell the most TV Guides. The folks at TV Guide will be issuing alternate covers for their pre-election editions. One cover featuring President Clinton and one featuring Republican presidential candidate Bob Dole. In case you were wondering, there will not be a Ross Perot TV Guide cover. The issue hits the racks on Monday. Some in the media have already made it a serious indication as to where the race really stands. I really hope that this is not the case. We are choosing the person who will run our country for the next four years; not someone to ride in the back of a Corvette at a parade and wave to people on the streets. We should base our decision on who we feel will make the best decisions for America, not who is the most photogenic, or who has the prettiest wife. It seems that in America we base phys ical attractiveness way too high. There are many famous actors and actresse: out there who cannot act but still receive large movie contracts because they are good looking. Do you think Elvis Presley would have been nearly as famous or sold nearly as many records as he did if he looked like Ross Perot? When next month rolls around do not let a superficial facet such as who is better looking or who can sell the most TV Guides influence your decision. Research the candidates and make an educated decision as to who you feel would do fhe best job at running our country. Uniforms: When dress codes become detrimental to the wearer For as long as there have been organizations, institutions, leagues and services of any kind, the concept of a required dress code has been alive and kicking, in numerous cases, the concept has been kicking many of the people told that they must wear a uniform in order to be a certain part of a group. Granted, uniforms serve well to distinguish members of certain groups as being members of certain groups, allow wearers to not waste time or money finding something to wear, and in the case of the military and sports teams, prove to be an aide in accomplishing necessary physical tasks. Some employees find uniforms helpful in portraying a professional image. It can definitely be said that in general, people tend to trust service ptoviders wearing urriforms more than Consider This... Noelle bv: Daidone those in plain clothes. Uniforms present an air of looking official. Let us face it, it makes it a lot easier to find a cop or other emergency personnel when you need one. Because of this same psychology, we feel a lot more confident discu.ssing impending surgery with Dr. X who is clad in a white lab coat or scrubs, than Dr. X who is wearing a suit, or sporting anything le.ss ihan a dress shirt, trousers and a tie. But, that is where the plus side of uniforms end. (sep Unifofpis P3ge 5) 5 Eagle Eye Friday, October 18,1996 • Opinion/Editorial In my opinion... Eagle Eye columnists speak their minds Uniforms continued from page 4 I am no anarchist, but in many cases, particularly where the uniform in question is on the silly side, forcing people to follow specific dress codes, lest they be expelled from the group or their job, is also a form of control. Do not for a second tell me that those with "the power" do not derive at least an ounce of satisfaction from using that power to establish clone appearances, especially if "the power" in question is not required to wear a uniform. I suppose if all uniforms were decent looking, I would not feel so bad for the people wearing them. But, when they look absurd, intolerable to the wearer to the point of causing physical discomfort or impending job performance, and p)erhaps reason for the wearer to be ashamed of his appearance, I can not help wanting to hand out soft T-shirts and comfortable pants to these people. Maybe, if I ever win the Lottery, I will. Anyway, I suppose the biggest violator of the ethic that uniforms should be an aide to whatever task one is performing, not a cause for disturbance or reason for looking corny despite how cool a person the wearer is, is the food service industry hands down. I have friends employed there, 1 have been employed there (although I must say that my current waitress garb is a virtual uniform dream: Soft T-shirt and comfortable sweats or shorts), and I frequent various establishments. I have seen it all: One piece f)olyester dress-type things comparable to gaudy sixties bowling uniforms, baseball caps with giant plastic chickens on them, frilly ensembles seemingly made from the owner's grandma's curtains, and tuxedotype nightmares. I want to know what possesses the chiefs of fast food chains to decree that workers, regardless of their sex, should be forced to wear supposed unisex it-resembles-cotton-but-certainly-does-notfeel-that-way pants, coupled with blouses with Peter Pan collars, some ludicrous tie and shoes that are more perfect for farm work, not for running the drive-thru or working the fry-line. As for wait staff, I have seen it all. And, not to be sexist, I think female workers bear the brunt of these fashion massacres. The absolute worse I ever saw, was a horrific get-up that seemed to resemble a dairy maid-meets-folk dancer number. Dairy maids do not wait tables, why should waitresses look ready to milk a cow? Incidentally, I have a friend who has worked on a dairy farm, a modern dairy maid if you will, where they always wear jeans, flannels, boots and gloves. Second place honors in the Bad Uniform Hall of Fame belong to parochial schools. As a survivor of thirteen years, that's right, count them, 13 years of enduring all manner of badly matched plaid. pleated skirts, polyester vests from which I still experience flashbacks that set me shivering, camp-like pastel blouses, knee socks that never stayed up and shoes that could have lasted our entire lives if it were not for the natural process of growing. Of this I speak from experience. I will not even tap into school sweaters or the trauma of hideous gym uniforms. Even worse than the fact that we were petrified into believing violating these apparel standards would inevitably somehow send us straight to Hell, was the fact that most schools (including my alma maters) were cruel enough not to have winter versions of these plaid, school color wonders. There were many a winter day when we were forced to contemplate that in the event the bus was even five seconds late (one could survive the subzero conditions in these uniforms plus a winter coat for exactly as long as it took to get to the bus stop and board the bus) we would have to weigh our desire to continue our education against whether or not we would be willing to have a leg amputated after falling victim to frostbite. This particular premise of dress code has nothing to do with discipline or conveying a professional message. Come on, how professional are school kids supposed to be? I am confident that survivors of private educational institutions fully understand this. A few more uniform questions and gripes: Whose idea was it to not only embroider the first names of certain workers into their uniform, but do it in script? What is the need for all those buttotis on bellhop and doorperson jackets? Can't they wear simple understated suit jackets? In many middle-class hotels the blazer look for front-desk personnel is fine, but why must female employees wear ties? The males are not required to wear skirts, therefore females should be exempt from wearing ties. What is the deal with those allmale organizations named after some animal? Why do members consider hats with the head and horns of the particular animal sacred dress for that club? How serious can outsiders take such an individual? I guess what I am trying to say is that the idea of dressing everyone from a certain group alike is okay as long as the chosen type of dress is comfortable, matches, is suitable for all weather conditions, ai.d does not do a number on the self-esteem of the wearer. I do not call for the abolishment of dress codes, just reasonable revisions. I have a hunch that doing this would lead to less people becoming disgruntled. It is worth a try.

Columnist feels Bentley changes are needed yet again Welcome boys and girls to yet another fun-filled and enlightening installment of - Tales From the Hard Side. Today we are going to talk about Homecoming. The time of year when people leave their home to "come home" to a place that never was theirs to begin with. So, onto the special Tales Homecoming extravaganza. Homecoming is a special time of the year, but is it really needed? Is Homecoming a tradition that has run its coarse and nobody is willing to pull it off of life support? It is the time of year when graduates come back to the place that gave thena their start in the real world. It seems to me that around here. Homecoming is really just another excuse to have a party. But, is Homecoming really about parties or is it about memories? Memories that were born on this campus and are being relived one more time. The University is celebrating Homecoming this weekend. Last night there was a Pep Rally and even the chicken, I mean the Bald Eagle mascot, was there. ^ ^ m e c o m i n g is about school pride. ^Knight the semi-formal is being held, and the Homecoming King and Queen will be crowned. Homecoming is about memories. Tomorrow there is a full slate of activities, including an alumni-filled hockey game, soccer matches, and the traditional Homecoming football game. Homecoming is all about fun. With all this happening, is Homecoming really another excuse to have a keg party? Maybe it is, and maybe it is not. I am not going up on my soap box to preach about having parties on Homecoming because Homecoming parties are as much a tradition as Homecoming is. What I am preaching is what Homecoming is about. It is all about fun, memories and school pride. It is about coming back to Lock Haven for a moment in time to relive all the good moments and even some of the bad. It is a time to hold onto the past because our future might not be so bright. It is a time to come back to the one place that makes you feel like you are home. Bentley bashing time Okay it is time to put on the gloves and get down to complaining. This semester the food at Bentley has been downright awful. Just when I thought the food was taking a turn for the better at the end of last semester, it crash dived into the pea soup on the salad bar, never to be seen again. The food is bad, and I am being nice by saying bad. For what I pay, I deserve better than this. I do not know where to really start because overall the food in upstairs Bentley has gotten worse but the food downstairs has gotten better. But I am not going to talk about better food, I am going to talk about the slop they feed us upstairs. The best meal of the day upstairs is still breakfast. I mean, not even Bentley can mess up breakfast. Then when the clock turns to lunch, the fun really begins. xaleS [From t h e Hard s i d e by ChPiS Nagy I mean in one week we had the potato bar four times. I like potatoes but four times in one week is a bit redundant. Variety has gone out the window yet again, and with it has gone the good food that we had last year. Even the pizza has gotten worse. Leave it to Bentley to mess vsp even the most simple of items to make. Changes are needed yet again at the dining hall or I am just going to keep bashing it. I mean I can cook and I am willing to give it a try because I bet I could make a better meal than what we are being served day in and day out at Bentley. Chef Chris: It has a nice ring to it, doesn't it? Bcndey made changes last year and I think it is time for them to make some more. That has been this week's fun-filled edition of Tales From the Hard Side. Tune in next time when I bet I will have more to complain about. Until then....peace.

This witty Elizabethan comedy, generously smathered with sexual innuendoes and sarcasm, appealed to the audience's sense of humor. It also featured a multi-talented cast. Each actor jjerformed several roles, revealing the level of sophistication and versatility required. This also included the ability of the cast to serve as both human props and scenery. Although the props were simplistic, they enhanced the level of the comedy. The choreography is a prime example of how comedy is enriched in theatre produc- tions. The wrestling scene, in particular, used the choreography of television to bolster the comedy of the situation. Matthew Lee, who played the wrestler, and David Aubrey Johnson, who played Orlando, both brought the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) to life on stage. It was hilarious. Other contributions to the overall quali-ty of the play included its non-traditional divisions between the scenes, the actors' facial expressions, and the natural sound effects. The end of each scene was punctuated by a circular procession that ended after each cast member had made the necessary changes for the next scene. This innovative style of directing allowed for greater audience comfort — i.e. the length of the play was tolerable. The actors' facial expressions, in conjunction with the natural sound effects, further heightened the level of humor. Bart Shattuck, who played both a dog and a frog in "As You Like It," proved that even minor roles can capture an audience with laughter. But Shattuck is -not alone in this distinction, for the entire cast gave an excellent performance. If there were any mistakes, they were hidden in a "comedy of errors." This reporter's only criticism was the choice of costume design. The costumes should have been more unique and less simplistic to accent the differences in characters. I also felt that color could have been used more to achieve this effect. But overall, "As You Like It," was a thoroughly enjoyable play. Thanks goes to the SCC and the Performing Arts Committee of HAC for providing such entertainment. Annual Clearfield Campus Tailgate Party...

For example: You should be able to accept the fact that, after he has been tortured, beaten, blown backwards out of a window and through a neon sign, nearly drowned and half frozen to death, Samuel L. Jackson can take a bullet in the chest and then drive a car across the Peace Bridge as it is exploding and while there are flaming cars raining down from the sky. Sounds pretty easy to stomach, huh?

First Jhe plot;^ Samantha Caine (Geena Davis) is a school teacher in Central t Pennsylvania whD has had amnesia for eight J years. She \voke up oil n beach, had no u memories and was two months pregnant. Caine has tried to make something of her jife, raising her little girl and becoming a appy, indui^thbus, boring everywoman. he story goes to great lengths to make Caine seem average. Samantha has also hired several private eyes to try to find her past. One of these is Mitch Henessey (Samuel L. Jackson), an ex-cop who runs a tiny detective business. He has had little luck in life and none in the case. Well, one night, Samantha is driving an old drunk home from a Christmas party. When he starts to fondle her, she takes her Uv tbttoeefeot ©ct. 21-2$ Monday "Desperado" 11 a.m. & 2 p.m. Tuesday "Mary Shelley's Frankenstein" 11 a.m. & 2 p.m. Wednesday "Mary Reilly" 11 a.m. & 2 p.m. "SgtBilko" Thursday 8 p.m. "Barb Wire" 11 a.m. & 2 p.m. Thin Line Between Love and Hate" 8 p.m. rlday___ "Bed of Roses" 11a.m. & 2 p.m. Monday-Friday movies ari shown at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. in the PUB TV Lounge Wedriesday-Thursday evening movies are shown at 8p.m. on Campus Cable Channel Ki eyes off of the road and tries to ward off his advances. The scene that we are presented with is this: It is a dark, snowy night in the middle of nowhere. One of two things is going to hapf»en — A. They are going to hit a patch of ice and go careening off the road; B. They are going to hit something living and go careening off the road. The answer here is B. The minute Samantha looks away, a deer materializes in front of the car. The deer has just about long enough to go "What the. . ." before it is flipped over the hood and driven through the windshield, where it lies kicking and flailing. Samantha's natural instinct is, of course, to drive directly into a tree. Both she and the deer go rocketing through the air and end up about 20 feet into the woods. Now, I wonder what a sharp blow to the head would do to an amnesia victim? The key to the story is that Samantha Caine is actually Charly Baltimore, counterassassin for the Central Intelligence Agency(CIA). As the poor deer lies kicking and wriggling in the snow, Samantha, totally barefoot, walks through the snow and crosses a stream just to put the deer out of its misery. She grabs it by the antlers and snaps its neck. Uh-oh, little miss average is showing some weird traits. Meanwhile, a one-eyed convict sees Samantha in a Christmas Parade on television. He freaks out and breaks out of jail. At the same time, Henessey finds some clues to Samantha's past. The one-eyed crime guy shows up at Samantha's house with a shotgun. This shotgun is one of the most powerful weapons in the world. With a single shot, one-eyed crime guy blows a three-foot hole in the side of Samantha's house. This hole is large enough for Samantha to throw her daughter through. I want one of those shotguns. After Samantha kills the bad guy with her bare hands, Henessey shows up, and off they go to find her past. The rest of the movie is a twisted mess that involves Samantha getting flashes of her alternate personality and a lot of bad guys trying to kill the two travelers in interesting and horrible ways. Eventually Charly Baltimore totally resurfaces and heads off to kill the bad guys and save her daughter (who was kidnapped ~ like you did not see that coming). In contrast to Samantha Caine, Charly Baltimore is a hard-drinking, chain-smoking, foul mouthed killer who wears too much eye make-up and peroxides her hair. The attempt at contrast is so extreme that it makes the character laughable. Samantha is picture-perfect Mrs. Good Housekeeping while Charly is a homicidal maniac who drives around town chugging liquor. The stunts in The Long Kiss Good Night are pretty silly. Doing an over-the-top stunt that is insanely dangerous but still at least remotely possible is one thing. Grabbing a machine gun off of a flaming corpse as it speeds past you as a counter weight on a string of Christmas lights just so you can shoot a helicopter is totally different. From the ridiculous stunts to the horrible, horrible one-liners. The Long Kiss Good Night contains all those elements that make action movies trite and useless. Some people will say that movies are meant to entertain. And they are. So on that point, I was infinitely entertained by The Long Kiss Good Night. I laughed pretty much the entire time. The explosions are neat but they are still just "let's-see-if-wecan-blow-up-something-that-no-one-elsehas" effects. While she may be a talented actress in some respects, Geena Davis just is not a convincing hardcase. I do not see her as a CIA superspy. I also couldn't see her as a pirate queen, but that is a different story. In all the mire of the convoluted plot and hammy acting, Samuel L. Jackson actually stands out. I have seen him in some real clunkers and he has always held hisjown. Jackson plays Henessey nicely tongue-incheek. Henessey is a bewildered victim of someone else's nightmare, just like Jackson. Maybe at the end, when Jackson is driving that car away from the explosion, he should have headed for the Grand Canyon. I can see it now: Jackson drives himself and Geena Davis' split personalities off of a cliff. The red convertible hangs in the air as we fade to white. Will they ever conie down? Will they live?

These two wins came on the heels of their 1-0 heartbreaking loss to lUP. The Ladies traveled to Slippery Rock on Saturday for a PSAC matchup. The Haven came up big with the 3-0 shutout. This was the tenth victory of the year for the ladies, which ties the school record set last year for most victories in a season. Rachel Clemens got the Lady Eagles on the board first with her tenth goal of the year. She now leads the team in goals scored, with Georgina Adams in second with nine. Lynn Ashton scored her fourth goal of the year. This was her first goal in four games. She had scored in three of the four games before her recent drought. Clemens, looking for her second score of the game, was denied the opportunity when she was pulled down in the penalty box by a Slippery Rock defender. The referee was right on top of things, and he awarded the Haven a penalty kick. Shannon Davis was able to touch the cords to make the score 3-0. This was Davis' fifth goal of the year moving her into third place in the goals scored category. Once again the Haven defense played flawlessly. The victory against the Rock accounted for their fifth shutout of the year. In their next contest against Edinboro, they would pick up their sixth shutout. Edinboro looked to be an easy game as they are in their first year of intercollegiate play. The ladies had little trouble in controlling the game from the get go, and they built a 3-0 lead going into halftime. The first goal came from another great corner kick from the boot of captain Heather 1 Orman. This has been the Haven's most effective means of scoring thus far. Orman's cross found Adams in the center of the field. Adams struck the ball with authority right to the goal. Midfielder Kristen Pickersgill was positioned right in front of the net, and had to jump over the ball to assure that it would go in. This made the score 1-0 and moved Adams into a tie with Clemens for the lead in goals scored. It did not take Clemens long to regain this lead as she used a beautiful touch to beat the goal keeper. Clemens went one-onone with the keeper, and the keeper started to charge. Clemens calmly dribbled to the left of the goalie and tapped the ball into the unattended net. The third goal came as a result of great passing in the Edinboro penalty box area. Adams scored her second gaol of the day when she received a pass from Clemens and then blasted the shot straight to the back of the net. This again pulled Adams into a tie with Clemens for the lead in goals scored. However, Adams was not done for the day. She managed to tally a hat trick, scoring in the second half. This was her twelfth goal of the season giving and put Adams in first on the overall scoring for the team. She is in front of Clemens by one point. The Haven defense dominated Edinboro as they have been doing against opponents all year long. They have given up a mere nine goals all season. The defense has also limited other teams to 79 shots and 19 corners in the first 13 games. That is an astounding accomplishment for the defense, because, as these numbers reflect, only six shots and one-and-ahalf corners per game have been given up to opponents. Equally impressive, last week goalkeeper Liz Nielinger saved 14 shots in 210 minutes while allowing just one ball to pass through. The Haven offense has been pouring it on as well. They have outscored their opponents 38-9 and have outshot opponents by an even 100 shots. The offense has also earned 77 corners which means danger for their adversaries. There are eleven different players who have scored at least one point for offensive accomplishment this year and four players are in double digits. The Lady Eagles will be tested a great deal in their next two games. They will play their next two games at home against Oakland and Bloomsburg. The Oakland University game will be played tomorrow at 1 p.m. The team will battle the Bloomsburg University Huskies on Wednesday at 2 p.m. With wins over these two clubs, the team could move up to one of the top five spots in the national rankings. "These next two games will be our biggest of the year. 1 would like to see a lot of fans come out and support the team. We need to win at least one of these games to go to the NCAA playoffs, and it always helps to have a loud home-field crowd," remarks head coach Trevor Warren.

Lady Vulcans on Tuesday. The ladies racked up three wins in a row at the Clarion Tourney, defeating Westminster College, St. Francis University, and PSAC rival, Clarion. The Haven downed lUP in three sets (15-4, 15-5, 15-7) in what head coach Tom Justice described as "a great team effort." Against Clarion, Megan Best contributed 15 kills, and Sarah Curtis added 17 kills along with 18 digs. Tara Newcomer's 12 kills and 12 digs, Fadime Verhoeven's 12 kills, and Becky Peters' 83% attack percentage were enough to beat Clarion, which was actually the only team to take the Ladies further than three sets. LHU took the match, 3-2 (15-10,1315,7-15, 15-3, 15-12). The team has started to climb back up the PSAC ladder, boosted by Clarion's recent defeat of Slipjjery Rock, a team which was second in PSAC after defeating the Lady Eagles earlier this month. Justice comments that this puts the Haven team "in good shape for the conference," at 5-2 in the PSAC and 17-9 overall. These wins put the Lady Eagles at #6 in the Atlantic Regional Conference. Pennsylvania boasts a number of powerhouses in this conference, with Edinboro ranked #1 and Slippery Rock ranked #3. The Lady Eagles, 4-2 in the PSAC, take on Clarion again Tuesday night al 7 p.m., their first home game in a month. -B Eagles show signs of improvement by Chris Nagy Eagle Eye Reporter_ The Bald Eagles went into Millersville last Saturday still smarting from a 57-3 loss at the hands of Clarion. The Eagles played the Marauders tough, losing a 34 to 12 decision and coming away from the game with a lot of positive momentum and a range of season bests. Lock Haven controlled the ball for 15:11 in the first half, but failed to score against the Marauder defense. The Eagle offense finally started to click in the third quarter when quarterback Carlos Cleckley found Bryan McGinty in ii.^ end zone for the Eagles' first touchdc ii in 19 quarters. The pass play covered 5 yards and was set-up by Eric Zachman's interception and 21-yard return to the Millersville 21. In the fourth quarter, the Eagles took the ball 77 yards for the last score of the game. The touchdown drive was the team's longest of the season. The Cleckley-McGinty duo connecte i again for the 14-yard touchdown, whijh might be a favorite play on the Haven' season highlight reel. On fourth-and-goal from the Millersville 14, Cleckley scrambled around a fierce Marauder rush and ended up around the 40-yard line, where he lofted the pass to McGinty, who battled three defenders for the ball. "It was the best we played all year," said a pleased head coach, Nick Polk, on his team's performance. He continued, "The kids competed for 60 minutes and played hard." "We finally started to click on offense. All the pieces are finally coming together for us," added fullback Willie Kitt. The Haven held the edge in time of possession, a first this year.

Kitt had 50 yards on the ground on 113 carCleckley also did a good job spreading the ball around to his receivers; Art Harris caught six passes for 36 yards and Jason Kundtz had four catches for 28 yards. But the senior McGinty was Cleckley's main target, pulling down 14 passes for 102 yards and the game's two touchdowns.

They held All-American quarterback Greg Moylan to 169 yards and sacked him two times. The defense surrendered only 3,370 yards to the high-power Millersville offense. The Haven D also held the Marauder offense to zero first downs and only 1,311 yards and one touchdown in the second half. Junior defensive end John Gerst had a day defensive players dream of. Gerst had nine tackles (seven solo), two for a loss, a pass break-up, and two and a half sacks on which earned him a PSAC "Player of the Week Honorable Mention." Junior linebacker Jeremy Crills contributed seven tackles, a pass break-up and a forced fumble for the Haven defense. Junior Ben Steinbacher also had eight tackles. Another bright spot for the Haven was the return of linebacker Jon McFarland, who recovered from broken a forearm that occurred during practice at the beginning of the season, to contribute four s[)ecial teams tackles. Senior Charlie Traber took over the punting duties for the Haven this week, punting eight times for 308 yards. Junior Smith Vatel had three kick-off returns for 52 yards, and Steinbacher ran for the longest punt return of the season, 26 yards. "A five minute stretch in the second quarter hurt us. We went from 14-0 to 28-0 in that span and it could have easily been 14-3 or 14-7," explained Coach Polk. Both teams seemed to suffer from problems resulting in penalties. Tlie two teams combined for 27 penalties for 271 yards. Tomorrow's Homecoming game mrrks only the second time in seven games the Eagles play at home.

Sports Mm Uoyf am] competition by Tami Torrey Eagle Eye Sports Reporter As the leaves are blown off the autumn trees, so are teams being blown away by the Lady Eagle field hockey players. The breezes started blowing last Saturday when SUNY Cortland visited Charlotte Field. Off the first corner of the game, Ann Smith scored the first point of the game. The game continued in the same whirlwind fashion when scoring sensation Melanie Helm whipped in two more goals. The scoreboard never changed after that, and the ladies walked away with a 3-0 shutout. The Cortland win was a big victory for Lx)ck Haven for two reasons. To begin with, Cortland walked off the bus with an undefeated record and ranked #1 in Division 111. Secondly, until last year, Cortland was coached by the Haven's head coach, Pat Rudy. "1 think our coach was very pleased with the win. We played well, and it was a good day," replied Ann Smith when asked about the game. The wind of the Eagles' wings blew even harder as the team buffaloed the Lady Bison of Bucknell University Wednesday night under the lights at Jack Stadium. The first half remained locked at a stalemate while the Lady Eagles tried hard to find the goal. Finally, Stacy Karloski found the ball's home and sent one in for a Haven 1-0 lead; the first half closed that way. Senior forward Helm made history thirteen and a half minutes into the second half. Cheri Drysdale found Helm, who put the ball in the cage, and became Lock Haven's all-time leading scorer. The goal also put the team up. 2-0. As play continued amid celebrations, Ann Smith scored the third goal. Helm then put the fourth and final point on the scoreboard, and the ladies chalked up another shutout victory, 4-0.

Svi^eet \i^eek f o r E a g l e s by Kelly O'Neill Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_ The pa.st week has been a good one for the Bald Eagle soccer team, which recorded two shutouts, improving their overall record to 8-2-2 and 5-0 in the PSAC, and placing them on top of the conference. L.ast Saturday, the Bald Eagles defeated Slippery Rock 2-0 and held the Rockets to only two shots in the game. Sophomore midfielder Kenny Haines put the Eagles on the board first off an assist by freshman Nathan Litten. The second and final goal was scored by senior midfielder Sean Flanagan off an assist by sophomore Tobin Gaun. Flanagan's goal ties him with two others at #4 on the LHU career goals .scored list. "The team played well in spots, but we need all the players to play the full ninety minutes. If we can do that, we will play a great deal better," explains Coach L.enny [MEN'S SOCCER i Long. To make the week sweeter, the Bald Eagles shutout Wheeling Jesuit, 3-0, on Tuesday. Commenting on the scoreless first half, coach Long states "The team played real well the first 20 minutes but had a bit of a stupor in the second twenty minutes. If we would have scored in the first twenty minutes, our outcome would have been so much better." In the second half, the Eagles came alive and at 24:59, Junior Steve Slack, last year's leading .scorer, found the net off assists by both Sean Flanagan and Nathan Litten for his eighth goal of the season. Senior back and fan favorite, Kevin Floss, went on to score his first two goals of the season in just seven minutes. Floss's first goal was a.ssisted by Flanagan and his second by team veterans Danny Bacon and Slack. On defen.se, junior back Ryan Czop played well for the Bald Eagles and was a key contributor to the shutout. With only 11 minutes left in the game, the coaches replaced starting goalie Dave Hartlaub with senior back-up goalie Cijis Mathers, who would preserve the victory. "Mathers is an instrumental part of the team in many ways. He did a great job aiTd provided two key saves," proudly remarks Coach Long. The men's soccer coaches were hoping Wheeling Jesuit would be a good warm-up game for the Eagles, who are playing Oakland University on Saturday. After two consecutive wins the Bald Eagles are going to have to play hard to defeat Oakland, who is ranked fourth in the country, but the Bald Eagles are up lO t challenge. h
