" Tonight and Tomorrow Night Price Auditorium Showtime—8 p m ' " ^ ^ ^ ^ AGLE EYE Vol. XI, Vaiai^OCK HAVEN STATE COLLEGE Friday, Work-Study Program Exists For Students One of the means available for students to receive financial aid at LHSC is the WorkStudy Program which was created under the Economic Opportunity Act of 1964. It was designed to aid students who have financial need by obtaining them jobs on campus or at various Minister Shows Slides to CEC On Retardation Slides showing highlights of learning experiences and a description of the activities and purposes of the Camp for the Retarded at Wesley Forest were presented by the Reverend and Mrs. Blake C. Anderson at a meeting of the Lock Haven State College student chapter of th^ Council for Exceptional Children held in the Himes Special. Education Building, Room U l , on 'Tuesday, November 7 at 7:30 pm. Although this camp was sponsored by the Methodist Church, it was open to all denominations. .'\n application fee of $28 per person admitted a child to the seven-day camp. Twenty-one retarded children attended, supervised by 13 counselors. A child psychologist assisted In the general planning, a fact which, according to Reverend Anderson, played a significant role In the success of the project. The purpose of this experience in group living was to make the retarded youngster realize that "they are children of God . . . and part of His beautiful creation." In regular camps groups are differentiated numerically, but, realizing that these special children probably wouldn't understand this type of organization, the counselors decided to give each of the four groups an animal name. Like the "Iguana House", "Beach House", etc. naming floors in our college residence halls, the kids became squirrels, beavers, rabbits, and chipmunks. A large bonfire on the last night gave the children a chance to learn a sense of sharing. The success of the program was indicated by the presence of one of the campers and his family In the audience of townspeople and students at the presentation.

To qualify for this program students must submit a Parent's Confidential Statement, which then undergoes a need analysis in Princeton, New Jersey. Financial aid is granted on the basis of proven need. Approximately eighty students are presently employed on and off campus. Students are permitted to work fifteen hours at $1.25 an hour. Jobs on campus include work in the library, around the building grounds, and In the faculty offices. In addition, several students are employed at Ross Library and the Lock Haven Hospital. The idea Is not to do away with campus employees, but to augment the existing employment. The money for this project is dependent upon allotments by the federal government. At the present time there are more people whowould like to work than there is money available. Hopes are that in the future the Work-Study Program can be developed and extended. For those students who do not qualify for Work-Study, there are jobs available under college work. The only requirement for this program is that the student have a C average. Students can work up to 20 hours a week at $1.00 an hour.

Ron Smitli, editor of Lock Haven's EAGLE EYE, was elected president of the Pennsylvania State CoUege Press Association at the amnial conference this year. Ron is a sophomore English major in the Secondary Education curriculum. Having served EE Delegation At Conference The 4th annual Pennsylvania State College Press Association conference was held on the Bloomsburg State College campus on November 10, 11, and 12. The purpose of the conference was to discuss, develop, and Interchang^e various aspects of newspaper production among the college newspapers. Workshops for feature, sports, lay-out, editorial policy, news, photography, and financing met to exchange ideas. Colleges represented were Bloomsburg, Kutztown, MiUersville, Mansfield, East Stroudsburg, Lock Haven, Westchester, and Shippensburg State Colleges. Lock Haven State was represented by Ron Smith, Eileen Lagosky, Sharon DeRubis, Sherry McDaniel, Rich Gingerich, Loretta Delong, Karen Bupp, Ken Edwards, Joan Crider, and Marian Huttenstine, advisor. Shippensburg State College was selected as the host college for next year's conference with L.H.S.C. as alterante upon defeating West Chester and Lock Haven for the honor. Shippensburg presented two workshops, the opening one on feature and the closing one on photography. During the course of the feature workshop various types and uses of feature were discussed. The ways feature articles were assigned ranged from voluntary contributions to regular assignments to members of the feature staff. The photography workshop was mainly concerned with showing HAPPY THANKSGIVING VACATION how effectively and ineffectively pictures could be used in college newspapers. A layout workshop was presented by Ron Smith and Eileen Lagosky. Ron explained the way EAGLE EYE is laid out and answered queries by staff members from other colleges on lay(See PSCPA Pg. 6) as managing editor of the coUege paper last year, Mr. Smith moved up to the position of editor-inchief in Septemljer of 1967. As the new president of the association, Ron will have some dilTerent duties from those of past leaders as a result of changes made in the constitution at this year's conference. For merly, the president handled all functions of the organization. But at this year's meeting the office of Conference Chair man was created to handle planning of the next convention. However, Ron said, he hopes to help Bob Yiengst and Held Menium, editors of the Shippensburg SLATE which will host next faU's conference, as much as possilde. Ron's responsibilities as president of the press association Include the following: (1.) To supervise the monthly newsletter pubUshed by the association for its member colleges; (2.) To create and main- KAiTT Open to Ed. Majors "An honor society is something every student should shoot for when he reaches college status." These are the words of Larry Gladhille, president of Kappa Delta PI, which is an honor society and not as much of a fraternity as many believe. Kappa Delta Pi is a national organization founded in 1909 at the University of Illinois. Until 1911 it was known as the Illinois Education Club, when at that time the transition to a national organization evolved. The locating of the Delta Sigma chapter on the Lock Haven campus was in 1935 and has since been active on campus. Kappa Delta Pi is an honor society In the education field. This means that only students, both male and female, in the field of education are elegible. Other requirements are that a student has completed 60 hours of course study, which is usually equivalent to the completion of 4 semesters, and maintains a 3.0 accumulative average. In union with Kappa Delta PI, the Dean of Academic Affairs relays the names of all students who are juniors or Ijetter and are maintaining a 3.0 average to this organization. Kappa Delta Pi then sends out invitations to all named students. Those who answer the invitations undergo a pledge period for 2 months during which they wear a pin bearing the colors of Kappa Delta PI, which are jade green and violet. After their pledge period, they are initiated at a formal banquet marking the beginning of their meml)ershlp. Once they are members they do not give up their status even after they graduate. As of now there are 59 active memljers of Kappa Delta Pi, including pledges, on campus. There are also 20 inactive members among the faculty. With Mr. Kuhn as their advisor, Larry is assured of the interest in each incoming class and said that "the main purpose of Kappa Delta Pi is to maintain high standards and a high intellectual standing on the college basis." tain a central file ot Information about the writing teclinlques In reporting, writing editorials, etc., of the various state college newspapers; (3.) To formulate and manage a "critiquing s e r v i c e " whereby the individual newspapers in the association may submit copies of their paper for constructive criticism by other memtier newspaper staffs; and (4.) To work with the board of presidents of the Pennsylvania state colleges to get auttiorization for a press pass that will be honored at aU of them (a press pass is a card that act mits a coUege newspaper representative to functions of othei coUeges free of charge). Hi geiv eral, his job is to unify aU the state college newspapers. Realizing that his new position will entail a great deal of work on his part, Ron was nevertheless enthusiastic alxnit his role In the organization. If aU of the coUeges will be as coopera» tlve throughout the year as they were at the conference, he asserted, he is confident that the program wUl t»e a success. " I hope to make the office of president of P.S.C.P.A, stronger and more respected among the state coUeges," he said. By this date most students are probably aware that Thanksgiving Vacation begins at 12 o'clock noon on Tuesday, November 21. Classes will again resume at 8 o'clock on Tuesday, November 28. Dr. Itobinfion lias asked that students keep in mind tiie required attendence regulation which states: "Attendence at classes within two days prior to or following a scheduled holiday is required according to the regulations of the college administrations. Such absences shall be reported to the Deun of Academic Affairs." Therefore, the period of required attendence surrounding Thanksgiving Vacation includes November 20 and 21 and tlie 28th and 29th. i Page 2 EAGLE EYE—LHSC Friday, Nov. 17, 1967 fflGLtS' fCHO (Question of tht week: "What is your reaction to the student resolution on draft dodgers at (ilendon (oliegt in Canada'.'"

The Marshall Commission which conducted a study of the selective service system earUer this year for President Johnson typifies this failure. The Commission did not Invite a single advocate of the voluntary army to testify before Its closed-door session. Furthermore, of the fifty-odd papers prepared by this presidential advisory commission, only one dealt with voluntary manpower procurement and this one paper was written by ^ economiclst who does not personally advocate the voluntary approach. In light of this, It is clearly evident why the Marshall Commission did little more than recommend modifications of the most glaring InequaUties of the present selecUve service system.

The program of compulsory military service has proved to be very unpopular since Its very inception in the United States. The reason for this is, frankly, that the draft has always been riddled with charges of inequality and unfairness. Yet, the most remarkable fact about the draft Is that there have been no absolutely genuine proposals to alter the most unequal facet about selective service — that a free American male Is forced to serve. The counter-argument for this is simply that any American should feel proud to be asked to serve his country. He should be proud, it is said, to have tieer asked to defend the basic Western values of lll)erty, equality, and fraternity for every single humar being. Yes, he should!

The scenery In which these two and the other characters interacted was usuaUy very simple and mean - a barn, a lowerclass house, a garbage dump. Tlie producer's skill was evident in the bleakness of most of the scenery, a quality contributing to the overriding tone of despair. This tone was the outstanding characteristic of the film to the majority of the audience. To the middle-class American teachers and students there, the action did not seem true to life. Nothing turned out well for anyone. The audience's sympathy was with Ll'l Eyes and the blind man, both of whom seemed to be on Fate's black list, indeed, every major character except Li'l Eyes and most of the minor ones were inclined to do evil.

One scene, however, was exceptionaUy well done - the portrayal of Ll'l Eyes' nightmare.

I'erhaps these quotations from Socrates and Nietzsche express the feelings of Mr. .lack Silberg better than any other. As an individual, he analyzes and enjoys life, and as a professor he is able to share his enthusiasm with his students. Mr. Silberg is always ready to learn: "Teaching and learning are two of the things I like best in the world." His own academic background is impressive. He received a B. A. in Latin from the City College of New York and an M.A. in English from Brooklyn College. He was a CJerman interpretor in the Army and spent a year at Columbia Law School. At New York University he completed his course work for a PH.D. in Knglish, and he received his Mas ters in Philosophy at Penn Statt University. Besides teaching, Mr. Silberg is the editor of the LOCK HAVE.N REVIEW. Lock Haven is most fortunate in having Mr. Silberg on its faculty. His lectures are those of a true professional, and his assignments are always valid ones. He makes a student feel that he is really interested in that student's opinion. Because he cares, about his subject and his students, Mr. Silberg is a very special professor indeed. At present he is working on his PH. I), in Philosophy at Penn .State. He lives in State College with his wife, Barbara, who is studying for her PH.O. in I'Inglish, and their 4 yearold son .Jonathan. Mr. Silberg feels that he has "Complete academic freedom" in his classes. This is one reason why he likes Lock Haven. Another is that he "likes the students very much."

Yale Faculty Adopts Numerical System ^ New Haven—The Yale University faculty has voted to replace numerical grading with a system under which students will be given one of four designations for their work—fail, pass, high pass or honors. The new system will begin next year and continue on an experimental basis for at least five years. Yale's present system makes use of a grading scale from 40 to 100, with 60 as the lowest passing grade. The university at present compiles cumulative averages for each student, but it will no longer do so when the new system goes into effect. The change at Yale is largely the result of recommendations made by the faculty's Course of Study Committee, according to Strobe Tallbott, chairman of the Yale Daily News. Some student organizations have l)een working to end the numerical system, however. Derek Shearer, head of the Student Advisory Board, said the Magazine Edifor Proposes Solution To Vietnam Ado new system, "moves away from the pseudo-scientific claims of the numbers system." He added that "It should make for an improved class atmosphere, for there will be no more quibbling about numl)ers. There would, I hope, be more concern for the quality of a student's work in terms of his ability." Still undecided is the question whether or not the university's two academic honor lists—the dean's list and ranking scholar designation—are to be continued, Talbott is hopeful they will tie abolished, but indicated that the new grading system will have important consequences for students regardless of what is done about the honor lists. When students apply to graduate school in the future, according to Talbott, recommendations are going to tie much more important than they have been. Graduate schools are going to have to look much more closely at what faculty meml)ers say about a student's work. The new system is also likely to end the campus-wide competition for grades. A student's performance will be compared with the performances of other students in his department. At present, Talbott pointed out, students are ranked by grade average in spite of the fact that some departments give generally higher grades than others. In a recent speech at Yale University Uilbert Harrison, editor of the New Hepublic magazine, proposed a simple solution for the Vietnam problem. He said that, as a first step, the I'.S. should allow the National Liberation Front to take over the government of South X'ietnam. If if did so, according lo Harrison, our present allies in that country would be forced to lake to the jungles and swamps. When Ky and his supporters were forced into the wilds, Harrison hypothesized, they would become guerillas while the \ L K was turning into an ordinary, ineffectual military force like the present South Vietnamese army.

At that moment a 101 gun salute resounded througout Iran. He then crowned his wife, Farah, Iran's "regentdesignated" making her the first crowned queen of Iran. Althou^ he got off to a bad start in 1953 with his Prime Minister, by 1960 the shah had Instituted far reaching reforms In his backward nation.

He said he was not sure "you are asking any more than any previous generation, but, , .you have been heard to a greater extent and more attention has been paid to what you have said." "Too frequently. President Rowell added, "it has been the spectacular, the unusual, the violent protest that has been given the widest publicity," and he suggested that "more thoughtful requests, more deliberate actions, have not always received the same attention."

This kind of freedom also demands responsibility for we can only put our faith In equality, individual free- dom and the democratic process for as long as we remain committed to these principles," President Rowell took the occasion to defend again the necessity of maintaining "an atmosphere of freedom of thought and action," saying the principle of academic freedom for the professor in the classroom is recognized and understood by most people, "but this principle does not seem to many to extend to the invited speaker," He quoted extensively from an address by the Attorney General of Wisconsin defending a free campus forum at the University of Wisconsin: " 'No matter how irritation and inconvenient it may be at a given point In time, society needs dissent — and the university needs new and disturbing ideas in order to adequately fulflU its role. " 'Occasionally we need to have the status quo challenged — if only to reinforce our convictions. We would do a gross disservice to ourselves and our society were we to ban the expression of unpopular ideas and beUefs.'
