mmk Eagle Eye Volume XXVI No. 20 Lock Haven State College Friday, Mar. 5, 1982 Fines to be levied against jaywalkers By HOLLY WILLIAMS Students who have been using the berm along Glenn Road as a walkway will be facing the prospect of a citation and fine by Lock Haven City Police starting on March 10. Police said that this law is being enforced to prevent any accidents on the road. Police said that the road is just wide enough for two cars and that there are no provisions for pedestrians on the road. Law Enforcement Director Richard Hepner said that the sidewalk to the side of Price Auditorium has been used more since the posting of warning sighs along Glen Road. He said that the sidewalk needs to be better lighted at night, but that this could be easily accomplished. Police said that prosecution of the violation was scheduled to start this past fall, but that it was postponed because one of the warining signs along Glen Road was stolen. Students caught walking on Glenn Road by city police would be issued a citation and ordered to pay a fine, police said. If students refuse to pay the fine or protest the issuance of it, they will bring their case to Clinton County Court. Hepner said that Law Enforcement will be issuing warnings to violators of the road regulation. He said that a Law Enforcement arrest would only occur in a situation in which a student defied Law Enforcement. Hepner said of the city police arrest policy, "I would hope that the student body would take this as a warning." Police said that students should realize that the enforcement of the road regulation is for their own safety, and that the poUce are not trying to harass students or take their money. "I just can't stress enough that 1 don't want to send one of my people up because someone got hit by a car," said one city police officer. Both Hepner and the city police agreed that if something is not done concerning the Glen Road situation, a serious accident is very likely to occur. LHSC representatives visit D.C. to fight financial aid cuts By BRIAN SANSONI Pennsylvania congressmen received visits in Washington Wednesday from representatives of the Pennsylvania Association of Colleges and Universities, including some from Lock Haven, who voiced their opinions on proposed cuts in financial aid. The delegation from Lock Haven was headed up by Financial Aid Director Dr. William Irwin and SCC President Lou Alberse. A number of representatives were visited by Lock Haven's group, including WilUam dinger (R-23rd), who represents this campus, and Allen Ertel, (D-17th), who is also a candidate for governor, dinger and Ertel both said they are against any further cuts Dr. William Irwin in student aid proposed by the Reagan Administration. Reagan wants to cut federal aid nearly in half, from $35 billion (1981-82) to $18 billion for 82-83 and to $14 bilUon for the year after. At Lock Haven, aid would be cut in the PeU GranU, from $853,455 in '81 to $512,673 in 1983. The Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant would disappear completely in two years. The Guaranteed Student Loan program would also be substantially reduced. Irwin, who compiled these figures, says that if the GSL is going to be changed to a need-based program, even more students would be dropped from the funding.

SCC announces results of senatorial races By BARBARA KAUFFMAN New blood wiU be entering the SCC as a^ result of last weeks senatorial elections. The twelve new senators were sworn in on March fourth. According to SCC VicePresident, Craig Rosenwaid, the SCC is looking forward to working with this new group of senators. The newly elected senators representing the dorms are: Joe Skarbowski, John Zeigler, Sandi Bargainner from McEntire; Eric Morse from North Hall; Corinne Rubendall from Woolridge; Joan Patrick, John McNamara, Gary Dailey from Smith Hall; and Bobbi Lloyd, Elizabeth WiUiams from RusseU. Off-campus representatives are Don Suplicki and Don Barnard. tire, where 4 senators were running for 3 openings. The turn out was fair, according to Rosenwaid, and the off-campus turn out was good. In spite of the smooth execution of the elections, there were a few problems. The election for Russell HaU will have to be rerun because one of the candidates was not listed on the ballot because of a late payment of the activity fee on the morning of the election. The senators elected from Russell HaU attended the senate meeting on Thursday, but wiU again become candidates when a new election is held. An opening StiU remains for Woolridge HaU, which according to Craig Rosenwaid, will be filled through a special election. Starting with this weeks meeting, Rosenwaid comments that the new attendance policy will be enforced by the Executive Committee. Senators will now be expelled from the senate if they accumulate 3 unexcused absences. Along with the senatorial elections last Thursday, the Commonwealth Association of Students also submitted a ballot to the students as to whether they wanted to keep CAS. The. students voted in favor of the proposition and also for the addition of the extra dollar for CAS membership. "The elections ran fairly well", comments Rosenwaid, "the nominating committee was very helpful." The only really competitive election took place in McEn- Rosenwaid stated the sentiment of the SCC towards these new senators, "I'm hopeful that the new senators will work weU with the S C C . " The Eagle Eye Friday, March 5, 1982 page 2 -The Eagle's Claws By JONATHAN BRAVARD Senior Staff Columnist After reading the comments of SCC President Lou Alberse in last weeks paper, I feel it is only fair that I say something about him this week. When Mr. Alberse was first elected I was dismayed and disgruntled and I said so. I thought that a totally inexperienced person could only do a very poor job in leading student government. I still feel to an extent, that if you want to be part of student government you should at least come and watch it work and try to add something to the process. I didn't think that Lou could do any of that. I was wrong and I apologize to both Lou and his Executive Committee. As Lou mentioned I had been a senator for five semesters. I have seen three SCC Presidents come and go. I have seen the Senate change every semester. I have seen the attitude of the Senate fluctuate from benign indifference to radical enthusiasm. Through out my time in office I have yet to see the perfect president. I haven't even seen a good one, until now. SCC President Lou Alberse is the best president I have had the pleasure of working with. We now have a SCC President who is willing to out on a Umb in the best interest of you the student, the Howard Reynolds affair is a good example of this. Both Mr. Alberse and his Executive Committee have turned student government back to where it belongs, with the students. .^^CuLC But the SCC has a tough road ahead, it's not all down hill as I'm sure they will admit. There is a lot of garbage waiting for them down the road. One of the most obvious road blocks is the SCC itself. There is only one group of people who can make it tougher. That group is the SCC Senate. Sometimes you have to sit and just shake your head in wonder; how can a group of seemingly intelligent people be so foolish? A perfect case in point: we had just given the Women's Field Hockey Team 2000 dollars to buy themselves championship rings. During which the major arguement was; could we afford to do it? Within a short time the Senate turned around and tried to award itself 50 dollars apiece for being good little senators and attending every meeting. Only because of a slick Parliamentary procedure did the attempt fail. I can only hope that the new Senate elections brought in some concerned new people who are willing to work. In the words of U.S. Senator Ernest HoUings (D-S.Carolina), "There's no education in the second kick of a mule." This weeks Unsung Hero Award goes to Ann Peter, secretary for the English, Philosophy, and Journalism Department. She is just your basic good person. I'm proud to know her. She goes above and beyond the call of Secretaryism. 'oJ|Ht» Letters to the Editor To The Editor The rudeness of several students jogging to loud music during the Continuing Education class of Mr. Yang's Taijiquan program is unforgiveable. This happened on Wednesday evening, March 3rd in Rogers Gymnasium while Mr. Yang was giving instruction. At one point they were asked to stop, which they did. At exactly 8:00 p.m. they turned their music up loud and started to jog around the balcony area; when asked to stop again, they ignored us completely. Dear Editor: In concern to Dr. Cox's safeguard against an attacker (Student hosp. following stabbing 2/19/82). He listed in his article several defense movements that would render, a would-be attacker harmless. I'm aware of the fact that Dr. Cox is a black belt in judo, but how could he offer his advice to people who don't know anything about martial arts, or who never had a karate or judo lesson in her Hfe. In giving his expert advice he made it seem like anyone could take on an attacker, never thinking of the risks that the defender could encounter. It's not that easy to disarm someone and throw him over your shoulder, deliver a kick or render someone unconscious. Cox also said that a 55-60 lb. person could do the crossed arm struggle, and knock out a 300 lb. person. A 300 lb. person has a lot of adipose tissue in and around his neck. By the time a person could apply a lot of pressure to this area, he could Along with the rest of this class, I was totally embarrassed for Mr. Yang when the class was abruptly stopped in this manner. The class would have been finished in 5 or 10 minutes, but these students didn't have enough "class" to give him that time. There was not one person in the class that appreciated this rudeness. I sincerely hope more respect will be given Monday evening when this class is held again. Helen L. Weaver Learning Resources Center have done something aggressive to the defender. Many people who thought it was so easy went away with dislocated shoulders, broken hands, toes, fractured ribs, etc.... No one is ready to take on someone with only 1 judo lesson. It's the ones who think they are Bruce Lee who end up in the hospital in critical condition. I've had 1 Vi yrs. of karate and judo, and take it from me, there is still a lot more tc learn and techniques to improve. The quick movements can save you but they coulc also do you more harm than good. 1 wis! that Dr. Cox would have also cautioned an; novice against doing any of those moves. Patty Buczel EDITOR'S NOTE: The article was not meant to convey the idea that anyone could take on an attacker and win. If this impression was given, it is not the fault of Dr. Cox, who was merely being lielpfui in giving his advice when asked. Announcing...

Campus Law Enforcement shall be called upon to make the arrest." The Eagie Eye Friday, March 5, 1982 page 3 Is the punishment fitting of the crime? BY NORA O'NEILL GUEST COLUMNIST How many of you have milk crates in your rooms? O.K., now how many of you bought those milk crates in a store? Now, it says right on the crate "Misuse by other than owner is liable to prosecution by law." If you got your's the same way I got mine you either weren't aware of this, you knew it but didn't care or, Uke me, you didn't think any thing would really happen if you got caught. Today I'm going to speak to you about the risks involved in stealing milk crates. I think it's important because, as the number of crates in students' rooms demonstrates, most of us have stolen these at one time or another without being aware that it could lead to a criminal record. At 2:00 a.m., December 5, two friends and I set out to steal some mUk crates. First we^weiu over to Bentley but there weren't any out, so we decided to go get some from AM-PM Mini Market on Bellefonte Ave. We each took two crates from behind the store and started home. We took all of the back streets, walking in shadows and hiding behind cars the whole way. We made it past the old soap mill on N. Fairview when we saw a car coming towards us. We threw the crates into some bushes and continued walking back towards campus. Law Enforcement passed us while we were walking back towards Woolridge. We were hiding in the shrubs right beside the building when we saw Law Enforcement go back to see what we had thrown in the bushes. We were planning to go back and get the crates but one of the girls backed out. While the other girl and I were stiU hiding when we heard Law Enforcement apprehend the girl who left. We went in the side door and up into the lobby of Woolridge. We knew we'd just get in more trouble when we eventually got caught, so we walked out and turned ourselves in. The Law Enforcement officers ran security checks on our identification, called the town police and instructed us to get the crates from the ,bushes. We were very cooperative with the officers. Even when they told us to return the crates, by this time it was 2:45 a.m., and aU of the local drunks were out of the bars and on the streets. We heard nothing of it for awhile and we thought that it was all a big scare tactic. Then, on the day befor Christmas break, we each received a subpeona for an arraignment in front of Mr. Carl Hamberger. We had Mike Williamson represent us. Hamberger read the chargers, read us our rights and we were arrested. Our lawyer drove us downtown to be booked. There we had mug shots and fingerprints taken. We appeared in court on February 22 with Larry Coploff representing us. We were advised to apply for the accelerated rehabilitation program. This is a probation program; if it is completed successfully, a petition may be filed to the court to have all charges dropped. With a minor offense such as this, I feel it could have been handled just as effectively through the college system. 1 approached Mr. Marshall concerning this, his reply was, "since it was alreadly in the hands of the town, I have no power in this situation." You can be sure if it would have been President HambUn's daughter or his own, I think he would have been more influential with the town police department. In view of our good records, the judge came up with the following conditions for our conduct: 1) pay a fine of $100 - pretty steep for the average college student, 2) $81.55 court cost - exceedingly high considering all preliminary hearings were waived, 3) 12 month probationary period during which the defendant cannot leave the county without a travel permit - unreasonable since it is mandatory that sutdents must leave for vacation and the probation service must be transferred to home counties, 4) 20 hours of community service - one defendant completed this by painting D.A. Fred Lingle's house. I think most students can relate to my first experience with Clinton County Law. 1 just hope this makes them more aware of the town's prejudices against college students. r c< Qri^a-^^! ^ -floor lojuunc jL H-.5 ' It?-pT* ;z e s . * , Oiuc*^ IF YOU LIVE: In Gro33 H a l l Mike P i p e ^#3^86 B r e t t H a r r i s o n #314.86 In Smith H a l l : Bob Cochran Terri Brennan #3182 #3165 In McEntire Hall; 'Bob Sutherland '#3738 Diane Richard #3763 Off Campus; Vance Fye #3^35 Bobbi Terry #3827 dai' In Russell Hall; Joan Crummy ?306ii Pam Feeney #3036 In Woolridge Hall Cheryl Easly #3200 Karen Prioreschi if3286 In North Hall'; Juanita Price #36linear rife Smythe #3557 The Eagie Eye Friday, March 5, 1982 page 4 EATURES AET to sponsor Rock The sisters of the Alpha Sigma Tau sorority are sponsoring a Rock-A-Thon, March 12-14, to help support the Special Olympians of the Keystone Central School District.

Ah, those good old days By SHAWN BINGMAN Students Uving in dorms at LHSC have privileges that were unheard of a hundred years ago. The rules and regulations of dorm Uving in 1881 were very strict. Students today at least have a choice to voice their opinions. In 1881, the students weren't consulted,- they were told what to do. In order to show how strict the regulations were, here are a few rules that students living in dorms had to follow. Compared to them, students today are Uving in heaven. 1.) Students rooming in the building are requested to provide themselves with slippers. (That means that bare feet or socks are a no-no and the perpetual barefooter would have been perpetual trouble.) 2.) WrestUng, scuffling, whistling, or any other rude or boisterous behavior is prohibited in the buuaing. (in otner woras you walked around like mute zombies and God forbid if you were caught cursing. Not to mention that you would have to do without stereos, T.V., or radios. What a blasti) 3.) The use of tobacco in any form in or near the building is forbidden. (That means there were no snuff chewers and for those who smoke cigarettes, cigars, or other things, you would be constantly beating your head against the wall.) 4.) The sexes must not associate with each other except at such times and on such occassions as may be designated by the principle. (There goes the 24 hour visitation rights on weekends, kids. Not to mention coed dorms.) 5.) Neither sex will be permitted to trespass on that portion of the building assigned to the other, nnr students allowed to assemble in the hall or the recitation rooms during recreation hours, except when permission is given. (In case you're wondering, recitation rocm is a fancy way of saying study lounge. Just think, isn't it nice to have someone teU you when to study? Let's get serious, who reaUy studies?) 6.) All persons visiting students at the school shottid first call the principal's (dean's) office. Students must neither make nor receive calls during school hours, (can't you just see Dr. Hamblin's phone buzzing every five seconds with phone calls from people wanting to talk to students? Not to mention the switchboard operator's sudden addiction to Valium.) These are but a few of the rules students had to follow. So the next time yqu have a .complaint about dorm life, just think about how people had to suffer through the years in order for us to receive the rights we have now. Gary Renzelman will direct the choir.

ROTC Rangers stage mock invasion Rangers staging moc/c capture. By JOE SKARBOWSKI Members of the LHSC ROTC Ranger Club held a trainig exercise in urban warfare at the old hospital on Susquehanna Avenue on Feb. 13. The eleven Rangers, commanded by cadet Eric Heberiing, practiced the techniques of entering an enemy held building. Upon entering, the Rangers engaged in a mock battle in an attempt to reach the third floor of the abandoned hospital. Once they reached the top floor, they practiced the techniques of clearing the building floorby-floor from top to bottom. "It was an unusual opportunity for us," said Captain Wallace Campbell, advisor to the Ranger Club. Campbell said that there is a need for such trainig due to the trend to urbanization, especially in central Europe. He also added that almost half of the battles in World War II took place in urban areas.
