^Kia^eis^ow m(m. mm^sM Parsons Union Building Lock Haven University Lock Haven, Pennsylvania 17745 Volunu! 32 D No. 13 D 4 pages Tuesday, March 19, 1985 Tuition increase is a possibility for upcoming semester By Kim Wilkinson Students of the 14 state-owned universities may face a tuition increase next fall semester, according to James McCormick, chancellor of the State System of Higher Education (SSHE). The SSHE system requested a 6.4% budget increase, but according to Governor Dick Thornburgh's budget proposal, the SSHE system will only receive a 4.0% budget increase. According to George Marshall, vicepresident for administration, the chances of the SSHE system receiving a 6.4% budget increase are slim. Marshall said there are three factors that help decide how much tuition will have to be paid. These include: what increase the legislature passes; the sizes of settlements with the various unions; and the overall inflation rate. If the legislature does not pass a 6.4hic »..<.n her team. O ' M a h e n was a competitor of the all-around event throughout the season. It all began for O ' M a h e n in Hickory, Pennsylvania, when she was five years-old. She took dance and ballet at a studio for the arts. By the time she was in sixth grade, O ' M a h e n was competing in state and tristate competitions for a private club. She made the varsity team as a freshman, where she was member two on the team until her junior year when she was on t o p . Lock Haven does not recruit for gymnastics, so O ' M a h e n was a walk-on. " I knew it would be competitive, and I had a lot to learn about being able to compete at the college level," stated O ' M a h e n . She wasn't out to prove herself, but she did want to fit in and become friends with her teammates. " C o a c h Mel M a n n o is a good coach and we like to have a lot of fun with her. She works us hard to be in our best c o n d i t i o n , " quoted O ' M a h e n . This was the first season she went through without her family rooting her on. T h r o u g h o u t her career, her family has been supportive with everything she is involved with. Even though Lock Haven's record o n the year was 2-3, O ' M a h e n thought the team had a fairly good season with room for improvement. O ' M a h e n set her team goals on helping in any way she could have d o n e , and personal goals on making it t o Regionals. Regionals wferen't in order for this year, but O ' M a h e n is optimistic for her final three years at Lock Haven. T h e highlight of O ' M a h e n ' s season was winning her first all-around competition in the first meet of the season against Ursinus. She didn't expect t o be number one on the team all year. O ' M a h e n won two of the five all-around competitions which events included the beam, floor exercise, bars, and vault. O ' M a h e n was plagued with injuries throughout the season. " I had shin splints, a wrist injury, and an ankle injury. I'll be having surgery over spring b r e a k , " stated the 5 ' - 8 " gymnast. O ' M a h e n is planning to train all summer, and will be looking forward to her sophomore year. Lock Haven will be returning everyone next season according t o O ' M a h e n , who hopes to be a gymnastics coach in the future. W h e n 1988 rolls a r o u n d , O ' M a h e n would like to look back a n d be able to say she performed to the best of her ability and was a true competitor. Football recruiting season underway By Shawn Carey A b o u t this time every year, people are glued to the television watching basketballs fly through the air or some are now just beginning t o follow their favorite baseball teanis going through spring training. But for the Lock Haven University football squad, the 1985-86 football season is literally in full swing. H e a d coach Jack Fisher, who will begin his eighth season at the Bald Eagle helm this fall, along with his recruiters and assistant coaches are well into the recruiting season. So far, the staff has visited over 400 high schools throughout Pennsylvania, eastern O h i o , New Jersey, and southern New York. Most of the traveling took place over the recent semester break. O n - c a m p u s visits have also occurred. There have been over 100 recruits visit L H U on weekdays since the beginning of last year and 120 on Saturdays, which began J a n u a r y 19.

Spring season practice is right around the corner. Starting April 8 and running for four weeks, there will be five practices a week about two hours per practice. According to Fisher, the Bald Eagles' strengths on defense are in their secondary, inside and outside linebackers, and special teams. On offense the strengths are the r u n n i n g - b a c k s a n d f r o n t line. T h e weaknesses on offense are the center position and that the receivers's speed could use improvement. On defense, he is concerned about the lack of depth on the defensive line. Coach Fisher also gave his views on the future status on the P S A C , " I f a team works hard enough a n d has a good recruiting season, then they should have high hopes of finishing high in the conference. It (the conference) should be better than ever this y e a r .
