The results of this vote, however, will not be legally binding on any goveming body or official. The vote will be used to advise local govemment on how the people of the county feel about the project. A dike/levec system is a method of flood protection that involves the building of a soil and shale embankment along the Susquehanna River to protect Lock Haven in the event of a flood. If the levee wall is installed, Pizza City, Thrifty Swifty, and several homes along the river bank will be removed. In the total time scale from planning to consu-uction completion, 21 years in all, 36,800 feet of levee and 980 feet of floodwall may be constructed on the river bank. The plan also requires power and utility relocation, airport modification, and the taking over of 100 residences in Woodward Township, as well as Lock Haven, which lie on the path of proposed wall. "The community will lose its recreational value since access to the river will be lessened," said Lynn Vannucci, president of the West Branch Valley Flood Control Association. A pamphlet, using facts from the Army Corps of Engineers, prepared by a group of taxpayers known as Citizens for Economic Growth dispute this. The pamphlet states that plans "assure jogging and biking paths and an ampitheater to view river events with seating for several thousand people." Although the actual cost of construction is not known, the project's estimated total cost is $77 million. The federal govemment will absorb $57 million of the project's cost, leaving $9.8 million to be paid by the state, and $9.8 million to he covered by the City of Lock Haven. The City has received $4.98 million in approved credits for the project. The remaining share is $4.8 million. A spokesman for the Citizens for Economic Growth said, "More credits will be forthcoming...credits that could reduce the local share to zero." Lock Haven will no longer be required to pay $189,000 to cover local annual flood Thrifty Swifty will be leveled if the Levee vote passes msurance premiums if this system is installed. The issue of whether or not flood protection will attract more business to the Lock Haven area is a question being debated by both sides. The information put out by the Citizens for Economic Growth said that the maximum amount of flood insurance a company can buy is $300,000, with "outrageous premiums." They feel this price limit is what "makes it difficult for Lock Haven to attract firms and compete with Williamsport and other flood protected communities." Chief Executive Officer of Techno Craft, Inc. Gregory P. Cunnigham said, "In order for us to consider any expansion within the Lock Haven City limits, it would be essential that the proposed Dike/Levee System be installed." He also said, "I think the facts dictate that for the long term economic health of the entire community, the Levee System is an absolute necessity." Champion, Parts Rebuilder, Inc., one of the largest employers in Clinton County has made a bid on the Old Piper Complex, said John H. Bedard N/E division manager. Bedard said, "The security and growth of our area is dependent upon being able to offer more to companies than other areas. We have it all, except for a major black eye. The approval of the Dike/Levee will remove this black eye and allow our area to successfully seek out new industry and promote employment." The West Branch Valley Flood Control Association said the Army Corps of Engineers stated there is a 1 in 5 chance of the levee being topped in a flood; that is, the flood waters actually reaching and siupassing the level of the wall. However, pamphlet information compiled from data by the City of Lock Continued on pg. 4 Program adopted for black scholars By Herb Samuels StcffReporter IK Students in Woolridge Hall vacated the dormitory at approximately 2:30 a.m. this past Saturday l^ecause of a bomb threat. The threat was called in to Law Enforcement, and campus police then went to the dormitory to evacuate the residents from the building. After about a half an hour, campus police posted signs informing the residents about the bomb threat which said students could enter the building at their own risk. ^1_ .<. A new organization for high achieving black students has been adopted by the University. The Black Scholars Student Organization is designed to help black students with potential to prepare for graduate school and career exploration. Dr. Richard West, directw of minority affairs, and Ms. Angelique Bacon, alumni and scholar from LHU, will act as advisors of the group. Some of the programs proposed for the organization are talks by people presently in graduate school. They will talk about their perspective of what goes on around them and how they handle themselves in graduate school. Some of those speakers include Eufard Cooper and Dr. William Henson who are affiliated with graduate school at Penn State University. 2 Eagle Eye Lock Haven University, Tuesday, October 27,1987 LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Dike-levee will cause Dear Editor May I recommend that students, faculty, and other members of the University community pay close attention to the impact that the proposed Lock Haven dike-levee project will have upon the configuration of the campus and upon the quality of campus life. Indeed, all who live within a mile or two of Lock Haven University ought to read the General Design Memorandum with some care. In Book 1, Section 15.02 "Random Rock Borrow Area-Lock Haven University," the Memorandum states that "random rock fill material will be obtained from the hill located on the north side of McCollum and Smith Athletic Fields...Blasting will be required in order to process the rock..." Thus, for a period of between three and five years the University will be a rock quarry and a blasting site. The entire hill quarry running along the soccer field will be blasted and tmcked away ~ leaving behind a level area to be used as a parking lot. Thus far. Lock Haven University has only agreed "in principle" to the use of the campus as a quarry. The University may decide, after consulting all elements of the University community and the homeowners in the area, not to participate in the project. I urge all elements of the University community to ponder the disfigurement of our campus and the degradation of the quality of campus life that will flow from the dike-levee project The natural beauty of our campus and of the Susquehanna River are among the important reasons why students choose to study and live here. The quality of our environment is at risk. Let us safeguard it. Sincerely yoiu's, Lawrence T. Farley Associate Professor ANNOUNCEMENTS. Newman Center Activities Ulmer.

Registration system to be better option Dear Editor I do not understand all the hoopla being raised by a small group of students about the registration procedure. The last registration was a complete flop and totally amatuerish compared to other procedures that I have observed. The present attempt is more in line with procedures at other schools and clearly represents an honest effort to fairly allocate the resources -teachers and class space- to the benefit of the majority. By planning in advance, it is a response to the demand. About 100 students (four per cent) attended the meeting with Dr. Ronald Woodbury. When you separate the usual hanger-ons and curiosity seekers, you will find a small, but very vocal minority who find their special interests at stake. Students have be.en exhorted to act in a mature manner. Maturity apparently means "I want my own way, and I want it now." They say after all "it's your money," not giving recognition that LHU is providing (in my experienced view) a quality education at basic prices. You won't find a better option. If you do, then exercise your true freedom. The use of "freedom" in argument always bugs me since it always seems to be a fallback ROTC Scholarships Full scholarships offered to freshmen and sophomores on a competitive basis to those students who will have a 2.S GPA or higher by the end of the fall semester.

To SCC Senator Jamie Crankfield, I would adc, "What academicfi:eedomare you talking about?" Your reported statement would have you coming to school Tuesday and Thursday at a time convenient to you and only with a professor you approve. I know there is a valid concem by some working students who commute, trying to work out their personal schedules, but if push comes to shove, it is the majority interests which must prevail. And that, boys and girls, is what a free society is all about. Yourrightsand freedom have a flip side of responsibility and acceptance of majority rule. But, the SCC Senators should know that since they were voted in by a majority. The real root of the problem may be the failure of the administration to use additional funds, that were allocated, for increasing the staff and for allowing some profs to teach very small size classes when the overload on other profs might have been reduced. It seems that LHU is trying to be fair to everybody so why not give them a chance? All you are doing now is generating a lot of heat and very little light John C.

Stalmann, however, did not go into detail and give exact figures to how much one of these dams may cost. The West Branch Valley Flood Control Association said they would like to see a comprehensive, effective, computerized flood waming system for the West Branch of the Susquehanna which would benefit everyone in the county.
