Lock Haven Universit#s Stwent Newspaper Due to cut, we must fight for education Kenneth Newquist Eagle Eye Editor in Chief_ Students are going to have to start fighting for their education if they expect the state system's 1992 funding cut to be restored, local legislators said last Friday at the University's .second annual Legislators Day. "If you don't get involved in the debate, you're going to get what the governor proposed, or something very close to it," said state Representative Mike Hanna, (D- 76th District). State Senator J. Doyle Corman (D-34th District) and Arnie Kriner, representing state Senator Roger Madigan were also present with local and University officials at the event, held in Price Performance Center. "We're number two in the nation for the wrong reasons," Corman said as he explained that state funding of the state system of higher education had fallen to 48 percent in 1992. Only Vermont is worse when it comes to tuition costs, Corman said. The reason the state system is in such bad shape is because the budgetary pie for higher education has to be shared with the four state-related universities, according to University President Craig Dean Willis. Staterelated schools like Penn State receive 25 percent of their funding from the state. Come budget time, that means even less money for the state-owned universities. Money for deferred maintenance — projects that have been put off around the IJniversity — has also been cut, resulting in delays and $180,000 worth of costs that the University has to cover, according to Dean Phelps, vice president of finance and administration. The only thing the University can do, Corman said, is wait for a special funding bill to be passed, as was done last year. The problem is that all the money needed probably won't be allocated, which delays the start of the projects and leaves the University scrambling to cover any additional costs. The $500,000 worth of improvements that must be made to conform with the Americans with Disabilities Act and environmental laws also has Phelps worried. Corman tried to allay his concerns, saying that special funding would probably be passed to cover any costs, as is the usual procedure with federally-mandated programs. The legislative day was organized by University reader services head Caryn J. Carr. Carr is the chair of the APSCUF teachers' union's Campaign of Action through Policy committee. State Senator J. Doyle Corman spoke about higher education at the University's second annual Legislators Day held last Friday (photo by Darrell Bressler).

Children enjoy festival activities by Kelly Little Eagle Eye News Reporter The Pennsylvania State Education Association sponsored the 14th Clinton County Children's Festival last Saturday in Thomas Field House. After a parade through the town, four to five thousand children and parents attended the festival. Over 76 agencies and organizations participated in this year's festival. There were many activities at the festival, including a petting zoo and face painting, which was sponsored by the Millbrook Playhouse. The Council for Exceptional Children (CEC) sponsored macaroni necklace making, and the Pennsylvania State Education Association (PSEA) did its part by sponsoring seed planting. Free information was offered by organizations such as Head Start, the Clinton County Recycling Program, and the Kiwanis Club. Performances of modern dance and karate were also on hand. A magic show was another attraction at the festival. The festival was a "nice community event that's fun for kids and adults," Amy Spencer, PSEA president, and Amy Carlson, PSEA secretary, said. It was "good to get kids out on a Saturday and to interact with college students," said Mary Ellen Ott, a member of the CEC. Brandi Buelow attended the festival for a class and enjoyed seeing "the kids and their families." Dr. Jack Hossain would like to thank everyone on campus, the student body, fraternities and sororities, volunteers and everyone else who helpmd out with the festival this year. It went great this year and he expects it to be even better next year, Hossain said. by Jessica Winters Eagle Eye News Reporter_ Students at the University are going to have the opportunity to find out what it would be like to be homeless for 24 hours while raising money for a local shelter. "The Homeless Experience," a program developed by the McEntire Residence Hall Association, will be held from 6 p.m. on April 8 to 6 p.m. the following day. Participants will be staying outside on the front lawn of Russell Hall. They will stay in cardboard boxes and will not be permitted to go inside for the entire 24-hour period. The program is a fundraiser for the Horizon House, a local shelter in town. The Horizon House is a non-profit home that can comfortably serve 17 individuals for up to 60 days each. The shelter has served men, women, infants, toddlers, senior citizens, disabled persons, minorities, unemployed adults, those working but remaining poor, singles, and couples since October 4, 1993. In order for the Horizon House to continue these valuable services, financial support is needed. The program has been established in the hope that it will increase awareness of the issue of homelessness in the Lock Haven Community and beyond through newspaper and television publicity.

There's been a temptation for us to turn inward as a nation, to focus our time and attention on things at home," Cheney said. "But I think that's a very dangerous proposition." Cheney believes Americans have put the U.S. defense last on their list of priorities. He feels the lack of discussion about defense in the 1992 election, the belief of the public that defense is not important, and the electing of President Bill Clinton on domestic issues proves his point. "The world's a far more dangerous place than people would like to believe," Cheney said. Cheney expressed that the nation has many "misinterpretations" about the defense of the United States. Some of the "misperceptions" are that the Cold War ended without our help, the feeling that there is no threat to national security, and the feeling that another country should take responsibility for helping other nations. - courtesy the Slate Student protests against speech (SHIPPENSBURG) - A Shippensburg University student has accused the University of "prostituting itself to the right wing of the Republican Party" by inviting former Secretary of Defense Dick Cheney to speak on campus on Tuesday, March 15. Patrick Thompson, a sophomore at the University, sent letters of protest to the University's deans and department chairs, as well as the local media, asking all alumni to stop sending money to the SU Foundation until Shippensburg University President Tony Ceddia issues a public apology. Ceddia declined to comment. "This was a man whose department of defense did nothing to stop the sexual harassment and discrimination of women in the armed forces," Thompson said. "This was a man who broke the civil, human and constitutional rights of gays and lesbians serving in the armed forces, as well." Thompson said Cheney's department sp>ent over $24 million a year ferreting out gays and lesbians in the military, against their constitutional rights. "I think (Cheney's) actions go against what an institution of public education is to uphold: multi-culturalism and the resp>ect of all p)eoples regardless of sex or sexual orientation," Thompson said. - courtesy the Slate Friday, April 1,1994 Eagle Eye 5 In the clubs: Fitness Club by Jen Baer Eagle Eye News Editor_ Are you tired of not being in shap)e? Do you want to learn how to become more physically fit? If you do, then the Fitness Club is for you. The Fitness Club, which currently has approximately 20 members, is new at the University this semester. The club's main goal is to educate people about how to become physically fit, said Club President Rick Harris. The group does this through sp>eakers and organizing programs about fitness, he said. "Fat-To-Fit: The Summer Challenge" is one such program being presented by the club. Students who participate in the program will measure their body weight and percentage of body fat, Harris said. They will then have five weeks to reduce the amount of fat on their bodies, according to Hartis. The winners of the program will receive gift certificates to the Bald Eagle Outlets, he said. The program wHI begin next week. The club held a strength compjetition last weekend. Male and female competitors performed three different exercises with weights proportionate to their body weights during the comp>etition, Harris said. The winners were those who could do the most rei)etitions with the weights, he said. Awards were given for each separate exercise in each weight class, and a trophy was presented to the overall winner in each weight class, according to Harris. In addition to holding these programs and competitions, the club also invites spjeakers to inform its members about fitness. Darin Pletcher, the assistant strength coach at Penn State University, will sp>eak to the group next week about strength, gaining muscle, and losing fat, Harris said. Rene Ebersole, the secretary of the club, feels that the group helps people on campus learn more about fitness through the different activities and programs it sponsors. The club has a lot to offer to students at the University, which is a popular school for fitness and health science programs, Ebersole said. Students in any major can join the Fitness Club. The group holds its meetings every other week. The meetings are usually held in the Parsons Union Building (PUB). More members are needed at the club's meetings to help organize its activities and programs, according to Ebersole. Officers of the Finess Club include Rick Harris - President Chris O'Neil - Vice President Rene Ebersole - Secretary Nicole Carminati - Treasurer Mike Skillman - Head Supiervisor of the Weight Room The club's advisor is Mark Elliston, who is also the track and cross-country coach.

Journalism alumni visit University by Alysia Moticha Eagle Eye News Reporter All students are concerned about their futures, and journalism majors are no exception. That's why journalism alumni were invited to the University to discuss various asp)ects about their jobs at the .'Mumni Reunion/Workshop held this past Saturday in the Parsons Union Building (PUB). From her past experiences at conventions, p)eople have always said it's not what you know, but who you know, said Susan Heintzelman, president of the Society for Collegiate Journalists (SCJ). "This was one way of making contacts," she said. During the day, a variety of seminars were held on such topics as television and radio broadcasting, public relations, different reporting and interviewing styles, and options after graduation. Students could attend any of the workshops while at the same time get acquainted with the alumni. "This is really helpful," said SCJ member Liz Woelbl, who attended one of the public relations seminars. "We explored options after graduation and got an overall view of the PR field." The students seemed enthusiastic, and he really enjoyed the reunion as well, said Joe Jones, an alumnus who conducted a seminar on sports reporting. "They [the students] seemed as attentive and interested as any captive audience will be," he said. Mock interviews were also conducted by alumni in order to give students an idea about what to expect when they get out in the real world. Matthew Connor, alumnus, felt the interviews went very well. "They were informational as well as preparational," he said. As part of the reunion, the Rebecca Gross Awards Ceremony was held in the Eagle Wing Snack Bar. Alumnus Leo Ritter was named outstanding graduate but could not be present due to health problems. Ritter was the former electronic system technician, who retired at the end of last fall. "Leo always loved the students he worked with," said Dr. Saundra Hybels, a professor in the journalism department. "He was a great teacher. I don't think we can ever thank him enough for what he did in developing the department." "He was a straight-shooter who tells you like it is," according to alumnus Brian Sanson i. All those who spxike of Ritter said he was known for his patience and understanding. The recipient of the outstanding student award was Kenneth Newquist, editor in chief of the Eagle Eye. "I had a great staff who let me do what I wanted to do," said Newquist. "This lets me know that all the hard work was really worth it," he said: • "It's been a real pleasure working with Ken," sard Dr. Douglas Campbell, chairpierson of the English, philosophy and journalism department and Eagle Eye advisor. "I always know things are getting done right." The remainder of the day consisted of the conclusion of seminars and mock interviews. "It added a different dimension to the scene of journalism," said alumnus Steve Coffman. The alumni were all excited and willing to help, said Heintzelman. "There wasn't as much student interest as I had hop)ed, but those that came got a lot out of it," she said. The whole day was a "great service," but many more could have taken advantage of it, said Woelbl. Many of the alumni were asking about the next reunion, said Heintzelman. There should be one held every year, said Jones. "As a student 1 would have known more about what to exjiect," he said. It was a "powerful experience" and an "emotional high" by having all of the alumni together again, said Campbell in reflection of the entire day. THK B C S S T O P S H E R I !

Well, that rumor, like most rumors, is false. Anyone, with any major, regardless of age, can be an editor for the Eagle Eye. The only requirement is a willingness to work. - Kenneth Newquist, Editor in Chief Student wants a smoke-free Raub To the editor. The rights of non-smokers have become recognized on all levels throughout the country. On the local, state and federal level, workers are not allowed to smoke in their places of employment. And here, at LHU, the same, with the exception of two places — the PUB dining room and Raub Hall. There is no reason why smoking should be allowed in a building that' classes are being offered in. Students should not have to choke on the smoke in Raub Hall every time they have to get to their classroom. If a person wants to smoke, they should do so outside the building, so the smoke is ventilated, not inside where the smoke stagnates within the confinement of the building and chokes anyone walking through. If you can't smoke in any other classroom building, why should Raub Hall be the exception? No smoking signs need to be posted and enforced in Raub Hall as they are in any other building. As far as the PUB cafeteria ~ PUB administrators should consider that many pjeople avoid eating there because of the amount of smokers that gather there to light up and eat or study. - by Gary Felix 17o1| 1 Q Q 4 ^ h e following editorial positions ^ ^ * * -T »**« open at the Eagle Eye for the Staff Positions Fan 1994 semester .

L i b a r y p e r i o d i c a l s a r e in d i s a r r a y Dear Editor, I am writing this letter in hopes of getting some action from it. 1 am just one of the many students at LHU that use the p)eriodicals in Stevenson Library. I must say that the back issues of the periodicals are in horrid condition. Take for example New Scientist. Currently there are over 12 years of issues in three piles. Each pile is about 18 inches tall, and none of the piles have any order to them whatsoever. It took me 25 minutes to locate just one issue that I needed an article from. This is just totally unacceptable. I am sure there are other magazines in worse shape that I haven't had the "pleasure" of discovering yet. Can't the library have someone spend a few hours a week working to keep the magazines in good order? I would like a response from the Stevenson Library staff on this matter. - by Paul Muscarella The application process Students interested in the above positions should fill out the application provided below and prepare a current resume.

Darryl Walker, the current student trustee, is graduating this May. This will leave the position of)en to anyone who would like to apply. The- Council of Trustees is made up of nine members of the community whose functions include approving capital expenditures in excess of $5000 at the University and reviewing President Craig Dean Willis' leadership abilities. The process of choosing the student trustee began on March 25 when a search committee of seven people received the applications. They will review the applications and essays, interview the applicants, and narrow the field down to three finalists. At that point the University's end of the search will be done. The process will continue in Harrisburg, where a panel of five people, consisting of representatives from the Department of Education and the State System of Higher Education Board of Governors, will do the same and narrow the field down to one. That person will then be recommended to the governor, who will make the final appointment. The position, which has a term of seven years or until graduation, will be filled by a student with a good academic record who can look at all kinds of issues with an open mind. The most beneficial part of the whole experience was the interview process, said Walker, who served for a period of one year as student trustee and will soon be looking for a job. "You have to be able to jump from one issue to the next very quickly," he said "The same thing occurred in the Harrisburg interview." Overall, to see how the University works and to get to know the people who make the decisions at the University was a great experience. Walker said. Anyone interested in applying for the position of student trustee can still pick up an application in President Willis' office in Sullivan 202 or can contact Walker at 893-3237.

Tfc • X !• !• • ch April Fools' Private uves or policies ; joke is on u. Teresa Copenhaver Would you like to have your personal life displayed to the public? Then run for a political office and that is what will happen. Every time a person decides to run for a political office, the individual's personal life is turned inside-out for the public to see. Anyone who wants to run for an office must be somewhat crazy, especially in this day and age. The public wants to know everything about a politician's life, whether or not the politician had affairs, cheated on their taxes, or they smoked pot when they were young adults. What is the reason for knowing every intimate detail of a politician's life? Suppos- edly, it is to see if the politician is corrupt, ethical or moral. The problem is that what does it really say about politicans if they did have affairs? Does it mean that they are incompetant or that they couldn't have changed? Is it more important to know how politicians spent their last 20 years as husbands or wives, or is it more important to know what policies they supported in their previous years in public office? If you had to choose between two candidates, one who smoked pot when he was in high school and one who voted to ban smoking. Who would you vote for, all else being relatively equal? I would vote for the person who smoked pot. Why? Because the person may have committed a crime when he was a teenager and was young and irresfjonsible. But the other candidate voted to deny people's right to smoke. Even though I may be in favor of not smoking in public places, I do not believe that people should be ordered to not smoke at all. I believe that by looking at the past of an individual can help to determine whether that person is a relatively good person overall, but CA\/HIPIIJS ICASVIPIL'Oy/HICNir/ "woKiK sinuiDT iP'OSinnioNs A\VA\iiiLA\BiLie IIN inniE c r r i C E O F A D M I S S I O N S IFOIP TlhllC ilQigi4-gi5» SCIIiO'OIL TICAMR. ¥HE crricc is iccriNC rci3 % CUISIANDINC S¥UDCN¥!S ¥ C BCCC/Hr PAR¥ C r CUi3 S ¥ A r r . w c w i l l BC I C C I ^ I N C CCC S¥UDCN¥S W I ¥ H CCCICC s e n i l i s AND A DCSIRC ¥ C ¥CUR CUE CUCSCS. APPLICATIONS WILL BE AVAILABLE IN THE ADMISSIONS OFFICE APRIL 5TH THROUGH APRIL 15TH. °?5 ^ 'S you cannot take one or two instances and categorize that person as being bad or incompetent to hold an office. How far does the public want to peer into a politician's life? Will enough ever be enough? Once a candidate has been found to be an upstanding citizen that has not cheated on a spouse or taxes and didn't smoke pot, then what? Should the public need to know what grades were achieved in college, high school or even elementary school? You may say elementary school, isn't that a bit too much? I think that depends on how nosey you want to be. I think it is time people focus on the issues and the pwrformance of the candidates. Primary elections are right around the corner, do you know who is running and what they stand for? If not, why? The news media is partially to blame because the news media is better at reporting the gossip than at reporting the hard facts about issues. Do remember the 1992 presidential election? The news sensationalized who had an affair, who smoked pot, who didn't pay their taxes, who supposedly lied, and whose fault it was for the bad economy. Personally, I would have rather heard who was for which issue and why, who had a plan to get the economy back on track and how, and who had the best track record in their previous years in public service. Those issues are the real determining factors for who should be the best possible candidate, rather than who slept with whom.

With the clowns we have running this country, I would not be surprised if they threw a big bash down in D.C. tonight. The celebrants: Clinton, Gore, Rostenkowski, Gephart and their underlings. What if some massive April Fools jokes were played on our country and/or our "esteemed" leaders? What would be the results? What would be humorous? Which would have beneficial effects? Which would put the screws to us? For instance, if the White Water investigation turns up evidence that Bill Clinton committed felonies, impeachment would probably ensue. That would be a cruel joke on us all. Think about it for a minute ~ Gore would be president. Not only does he make boring people fun to be around, but as a senator, he voted against every bill that made our country prosperous in the 1980s. Next, what if Joycelin Elders gave a health-related speech to a sizable crowd overseas. After we get done laughing at her, we would realize that she's leaving an impression of America on these people. Ouch! What if the Clintons' health care plan was actually passed? Enough said there. Now, what about an April Fools joke that could benefit us. We could send our executives on vacation. We can fly Bill and Hillary to Havana, with a stop at Miami's airport to get a $200 haircut right on the runway. We can even fly Al Gore to the northwest for a tree hugging expedition. You know, they all just might not want to come back. At last, humor. Isn't that what we really want to achieve out of today? Imagine if we sent George Stephanopoulos to tour an elementary school. I could see the headlines, "Stephanopoulos mistaken for student in crowd of fourth graders." How about Senator Ted Kennedy claiming that he's giving up drinking and philandering. Ha ha ha ha! Yeah right! 's reconsider the impeachment. If Bill was booted from offlce, we could find the Clintons in divorce court. What would Hillary's grounds for divorce be? Bill's blunders in Arkansas and D.C. cost her the presidency, not to mention her "moral authority" being damaged. I actually can't take credit for thinking up that one. I heard that on the radio last Thursday. For those who were offended by what I wrote, read what I say and mean, not what you expect me to say and mean. There's a difference. 10 Eagle Eye Friday, April 1,1994 Gwar combines great music with sick lyrics by Matt Walsh Eagle Eye Music Critic_ A Go-Go" is fantastic. The rest of the album continues in typical Gwar fashion: a good mix of musical styles to combine with lyrical stylings of vocalist Oderus Urungus, who Once again 1 find myself in another great dilemma. 1 was going to review the new album from Sausage, which consists of the original lineup from Primus, since we got an advance copy of it at the station, but some @#$&*! stole it. I'm in one dilemma, so knowing my bad luck (especially with the week I had) 1 find myself in another one. To remedy my "problem," my friends at the record companies sent me tons of new albums from some of my favorite bands. What happened to the good old days where this paper gave me almost an entire page, *sniffle.* Well, on the good side, one of the albums I have been patiently anticipating came slithering into my office, the fourth album from one of coolest bands around ~ Gwar. The new album is titled This Toilet Earth (Metal Blade Records) and continues their display of great music and sick but silly lyrics. possesses a plethora of voices for the variSo 1 put the disc on and what is the first ous styles of music the band portrays in each thing I hear? A horn section! The mix be- song. tween the band and the horns on "Saddam The first single is "Jack The World," which can already be seen on MTV. The song has a big punk feel very similar to Bad Religion, but conducted in Gwar's unique fashion. "The Insidious Soliloquy Of Skulhedface" is almost a theatrical piece, obvisly suited for their live show. Many voices are portrayed, including some opera-like voices and one that even sounds kind of like Popeye. Other tracks include "Penis I See," "B.D.F.," "Krak-Down" ~ which was featured on their The Road Behind EP — and "Slap U Around." As you can tell by some of the song titles, this album may not be suitable for those of you who are easily offended, but the lyrics are as hilarious as always. The lyrics themselves are not as funny as Scumdegs Of The Universe, but musically, Gwar has improved. For those you who have never heard of Gwar before, they're not just a band, they also put on one of the best live shows ever. They dress up in costumes (like on the cover) and put on a theatrical show to accompany the music. It is definitely an experience I highly recommend you try, but I will warn you, you might want to stand/sit towards the back, unless you don't mind getting drenched in Kool-Aid and milk. And once again, the theatrics can be just as sick as the lyrics (and usually are). They also have a few videos out, including the grammy nominated "Phallus In Wonderland" which may be the sickest rock movie ever. So I have this neat pile in front of me and I have to figure out what to review next week. Hmm let's see... we got Therapy?, Rollins Band, Mucky Pup, and too many others, or maybe that schmuck will bring the Sausage CD back Maybe I'll bring in back after I've found and dismembered him/her. Who knows? Stay tuned... ^ Folk singer shares feminine experiences by Ana L Gonzalez Eagle Eye Features Reporter_ Singer/Songwriter Robin Greenstein presented her concert/lecture, "Images of Women In Folk Music," last Thursday for Women's History Month. She focused on the fashion in which women are perceived in traditional Anglo-American and AfroAmerican folk songs from both the male and female perspectives.' Her presentation began with a brief explanation of the three folk genres. Ballads, Greenstein has dedicated her life to studying and performing folk music (photo by Sue Heintzelman). which originated in the British Isles as a way of telling the news of the day orally, are a rather impersonal and objective storytelling song. Lyric songs are full of feeling and inner emotion and can tell a story or just explain feelings about someone's life. The third genre deals with songs that are designed for a specific function (i.e. to accompany the work of sailors or assist children in learning to count). She concentrated on ballads and lyric songs and explained how the tradition of passing these songs on orally, without necessarily ever being written down, tended to alter the songs as time went by. The basic issues of regret, infidelity, control and confinement, loyalty, oppression, justice and equality can be found in such songs as "I Wish I was a Single Girl Again." "The House Carpenter," "Gypsy Davy," "The Wagoner's Ud," "When I Was In My Prime," "The Devil and the Farmer's Wife," "Dink's Song" and others. Dr. Karen Elias, advisor for the Women's Coalition said the concert both instructs and delights. "It was a real nostalgic journey backward that was very moving," Elias said, adding that her Issues in Feminism class deals with these very issues and "sometimes it can be difficult." Greenstein earned a B.A. in music from the State University of New York at Stony Brook, studying for a year at Trinity College of Music and King's College in London. She studied under and worked as an assistant to famed folk performer/musicology pro- fessor Hedy West. "Images of Women In Folk Music." "It's Folk music was very popular when fun. It cuts across many academic lines: Greenstein was growing up and she was al- women's studies, sociology, psychology and ways interested in women's issues. She felt musicology," she said. if she put the two together she could reach Robin Greenstein's debut album. Slow more people.

Winter's effects continue to delay season by Amy Coles Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_ The Eagle cannot take flight. Instead of wind beneath its wings, there is nothing but snow. Because of the harsh winter that dumped over 80 inches of snow on the area, the softball team has been unable to begin playing their 1994 schedule. The team officially began its season at the Rebel Springs Tournament in Florida over Spring Break. However, since that time, two home games and one away game have been cancelled, due to unmelted snow on the playing fields. Still undetermined is the status of the Eagles' home game against Shippensburg on April 5. Head Coach Kim Lindsey said that the Shippensburg game may have to be played elsewhere, if at all. Also suffering because of the weather are the Eagles' practices, which are limited to what can be done indoors, even though there were several sunny days last week. "It doesn't even feel like there is a season," said shortstop Jess Brandt. "It's very frustrating being a senior and having the season turn out this way. But we don't have any control over the weather. It's just really frustrating." Despite the havoc wrecked by Mother Nature, the extra weeks with no games has given the team some time to regroup from their poor showing in the Florida tournament. After returning home with a 4-6 record, the Eagles have many questions to answer before embarking on their quest to repeat as first place finishers in the PSAC-West. The primary concern facing LHU is the inconsistency with which they played their ten games over spring break. One reason for some of this early uncertainty with the Eagles could be the departure of LHU's first All-American Softball players, Theresa Kovach and Jen Horner. Kovach and Horner, who also received All-Conference and All-Regional honors during their collegiate careers, graduated last year, leaving two large holes on the team. "It's going to be hard to replace their bats," Haven finds success at Hrst outdoor meet of season said Lindsey. "T (Kovach) hit over .500 and Jen hit around .400. "(Jen also) broke almost every batting record we have here at Lock Haven, and T was named the toughest player to strike out (in NCAA Division II)." Replacing Horner's and Kovach's gloves has also been challanging for Lindsey. Sophomore Tiff Amore has taken over at third base for Kovach, a position that Lindsey feels Amore is performing well at. However, finding someone to play second base. Homer's vacated spot, has not been as promising. Currently, there is no set starter for the position, although Lindsey has narrowed her choices down to two freshmen: Dana Deshler and Kari Myers. "Nobody has been really consistant there for us yet," said Lindsey. Although the softball team's situation looks as clear as mud, Lindsey is convinced that her team can make it to the top of the PSAC-West in 1994. j|»; "My goal every year is to go to states. This year we have the potential to go further, to regionals, if they all' work together," said Lindsey. A key to that success will be Brandt, who hit over .500 in Florida and more importantly, came through in the clutch. "I think Jess has a real good chance to be All-American if she keeps her errors down," said Lindsey. However, if early indicators hold true, the road to such an honor may be a bumpy one for Brandt. She committed eight errors in the ten Rebel Springs Games over the break. Lindsey also feels that her two hurlers, All-Conference senior Eileen Morse and sophomore Jen Geary, are important to the Eagles' 1994 mix. The team is hoping the snow will be melted and field conditions will be dry enough to finally begin playing home games by April 16, when they are scheduled to take on I UP. In the next few week, the Eagles will be traveling to Ashland, Ohio for a tournament, and to Bloomsburg for a game. Sports Slate Baseball- Home tomorrow vs. Indiana University at 1 p.m. by Aaron Russell Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_ The men's and women's track teams dominated last weekend's competition as a combined 17 place winners ran away with 19 victories in their events. The meet, hosted by Clarion University, also saw Lock Haven grab 11 second place finishes and four third places. Although the meet served mostly as a primer for this week's trip to the Colonial Relays in Virginia, Coach Elliston was pleased with his athletes' performances. Freshman Jason Deval lance showed great promise in his first competition of the year. His throw of 195'-9" in the javelin was good enough for first place, and narrowly missed the provisional qualifying standard for nationals. Fellow freshman Kyle Waite also had a stellar day as he grabbed second place in the discus (130'-r'), and first in the shot put (46'-9"). John Martin's winning jump of 19'-2-3/4" in the longjump also highlighted the team's performances. For the women, Natalie Jackson leaped 35' in the triple jump and threw the javelin 112'-2"; both landed her first-place honors. Tina Gilbert (27.0) and Melanie Helm (27.2) combined for a one two finish in the 200- meters, as did Kristin Wolfe (5:19) and Brenda Trimble (5:23) in the 1500-meter.

Kipp and company look to rebound after last year by Chad States Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_ The 1994 version of the Lock Haven University Lacrosse team will try to rebound from a disappointing 1-8 season last year and try to make a run at the PSAC playoffs this year. Lock Haven is loaded with talent and experience on both offense and defense. Deidre Kipp returns as the main offensive force for the Eagles. Kipp, who is LHU's second all-time leading scorer and an All-Conference selection, paced the team last year with 19 goals, including an amazing seven-goal performance against Shippensburg. Kipp now has 55 goals in her collegiate career. Teamed with Kipp, will be another scoring threat in Liz Heit. Heit has scored 14 goals in her two years at LHU. Other returning offensive threats for the Eagles are Michelle Burt, who scored seven goals last season, and Jen Stewart , who added five goals. Senior co-captian Anne Whitlock and senior Jen Uter will add both experience and leadership to the Eagle line-up. Whitlock has nine goals and eight assists over career. Uter has scored five goals and added one assist as she returns for her final season. With all this experience and talent on offense. Head Coach Bridget Roun is still concerned. "Being able to score is going to be our major concern this year ," said Roun. "We are actually in better shape this year than last year. We are very experienced, returning so many veterans, but we are not deep. That will be a major concern." Defensively, the Eagles will rely on senior co-captain Christine Curcio. Curcio is coming off an injury last season that forced Lacrosse juniors Julie Patterson, Laura Gerrior, and Corina Wells. Another key question coach Roun will her to take a red-shirt. Curcio has 11 goals have to answer is who will replace All-American goalie Amy Yorks. and two assists in her career. Competing for the vacated goalie position Other players to watch on defense include will be Robin Martin and Sherry Strausbaugh. Both players are inexperienced but coach Roun feels pretty confident about the goalie situation. "Replacing any All-American is always a tough thing to do, but the team has faith in both Robin and Sherry. With good 'D' in front of them, they should be able to hold the line. " Coach Roun also feels that the weather is having an effect on her team, especially on the development of the transition game. "The biggest thing we have going against us right now is the weather. The transition game is a key concern for us this year," says Roun. "We haven't been able to work on it much because of being indoors. We have to work inside in a gym, on a game that has no boundries." Lock Haven is currently 0-1 on the season, having dropped a heart-breaking loss to SUNY Cortland, 9-8. Next up for the Eagles will be an away game at Rowen State College today at 1 p.m. Later this week the team will continue on the road for games at Shippensburg University and Millersville University.

After years of waiting.,. Construction of new field set to begin by Clint Often Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_ The most significant thing that has happened to Lock Haven University's baseball team in recent memory occurred this week, which is strange considering the team didn't play one inning. The Eagles, forced to postpone last Sunday's game at Allentown College because of bad weather, received the good news that they've been waiting years for when they learned that the University agreed to buiffl a field for them. The field will be constructed because the University transferred the deed to the property where the field will be from the foundation's name to its own. This legal technicality almost delayed construction, but as of now, the project is on. During another season plagued by rain and snow, this news was a ray of bright sunshine for the players and coaches alike. "As soon as the crews can get on it, they'll start working," said assistant coach Horace "Lefty" Lovelace. He added that the work crews will cut out the infield, bring in the dirt mixture for the infield and pitcher's mound, and put in a warning track and fence in the outfield. Junior catcher Aaron Tiracorda summed up the team's feelings by saying , "They're finally going to do it. Hopefully it'll be finished by July (for summer camps)." The news was especially satisfying to head coach Paul "Smokey" Stover. "I'm pleased about the commitment the University has made to baseball," said Stover, who has fought for a new field since taking the reigns of the program two years ago. "I expect baseball to be on the upswing in the future." The Eagles, off to a 4-7 start, consist mainly of freshmen and sophomores, so most of the early-season mistakes can be attributed to inexperience at the college level and unfamiliarity in playing together. Leading the way offensively thus far for the Eagles has been freshman first baseman Dave Hartlaub (.444, IHR, 10 RBI), sophomore C/OF Heath Stover (.391, 0, 6), and freshman infielder Mike Allen (.367, 10 RBI). Sophomore Jason Heidel leads the team with two home runs to go along with his Baseball .316 average. Hartlaub, Todd Stiner, and Tiracorda have also gone deep for the Birds. Heading the pitching staff to this point has been Karl Raffin (1-1, 2.65 ERA), Scott Strong (1-0, 3.09), Jeff Book (1-1, 3.27) and Brian Hoffman (1-0, 3.86). Raffin has struck out eleven batters, while Book, Hoffman, and freshman Dan Elling have fanned eight each. Although the team has been sluggish at times. Stover feels that consistency will come with experience. "1 think we have a lot of potential," he said, "but we still have a lot to learn." After learning what they did about the go-ahead with their field, the team can now concentrate on playing. The next game for the Eagles will be a doubleheader at Indiana. The games were originally to be played at home, but were moved to lUP because their field doesn't have any snow on it. The first home game of the season is now scheduled for April 5 against Edinboro at 1 p.m. The 1994 National Collegiate Boxing Assoc.

The results will appear in the next available issue of the Eagle Eye. by Gilbert Durand Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_ The Lock Haven boxing club has lost one of the "Fab Five" to an injury just one week before the National Championships. The hopes for a team title have also been refocused into individual accomplishments. Undefeated Dirk Weaver ended his season just one week prior to nationals when an injury from high school football was reinjured during the last controlled sparring session of the year. "The injury was a fluke," said coach Ken Cox. "I feel he would have won the 165-lb weight class, of course we are disappointed." While sparring, both Weaver and his opponent threw left hooks and collided their elbows. It was bone on bone. Weaver's elbow broke on contact. "Training injuries in amateur boxing are rare," said Dr. Cox. "In 16 years we have only had one other and that was when Joe Ferrari broke a bone in his right hand in the final seconds of the championship bout at the 1987 ECBA-NE Regional Tournament." Ferrari was voted the "Outstanding Boxer" of Easterns that year. Like Weaver, Ferrari was forced to default out of the national tournament. The NCBA coaches voted Ferrari an All-American in absentia that year. The coaches will vote on Weaver at the national meeting. The tragedy is that Weaver was consistantly the most dedicated and hardest worker on the team. Weaver will be operated on this Wednesday and will begin rehab and physical therapy to recover and possibly return to boxing. The team members boxing are dedicating their efforts at nationals to Dirk. With four boxers still challenging a national title, this year's team could duplicate or better LHU's past performances. In 1989, the Bald Eagles crowned three Boxing you to join in the festivities and experience collegiate boxing at its best. Tickets for the event will be available at the door.

It would take 110% effort and a lucky draw on the part of Pat Woody, Jimmy Torres, Todd Stiner and Chad Miner. Woody, the defending national 125-lb champion, is a favorite again, as is Chad Miner, who won the 165-lb title last year but has moved up to 172-lb. Torres is expected to receive a stiff challenge from Matt Brown (Santa Clara) in the 139 lb division. LHU's key to a top two or three finish will be 147-lb Todd Stiner, who must get by the defending national champions, Arturo Alvarado of USAFA and Matt Horelick of UN-Reno in one of the toughest weight classes. "Our goal is to crown several more national champs," said Cox. The history of LHU's successful boxing club stems from eight National Champs who have won 13 individual titles and 57 boxers who have earned AllAmerican honors since 1979.

Shue and Kozlowski praised by PSAC by Dan Murray Eagle Eye Sports Editor_ The Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference rewarded Lock Haven University basketball players Mike Shue and Holly Kozlowski last week for their stellar performances this past season, naming Shue PSAC-West "Rookie of the Year," and Kozlowski PSAC-West First Team and AllECAC South Second Team. Shue, a freshman from Dover, Pa, burst on the scene last season averaging 13.7-ppg and 17.8-ppg in PSAC-West play. Shue led the conference in free-throw percentage with an 86.3 percentage and led the Eagles in threepointers nailing 61 of 174. Kozlowski, a senior from Nanticoke, Pa, ended her sf>ectacular career at the Haven leading the Lady Eagles with an 18-ppg average and finishing her career with 1, 653 Basketball points, ranking her second on LHU's all time scoring list. Both Shud and Kozlowski were the silver linings in an otherwise dismal season for LHU basketball as the men's team finished in last place for the first time in over a decade and the women's team faded fast after showing promise early in the season. Shue, who started the season as the team's sixth man, exploded onto the scene shortly after the departure of Shon Crosby and Chris Franklin and quickly asserted himself as the premier scoring threat on the Bald Eagle squad. At times, Shue displayed flashes of brilliance including back-to-back games in which he scored 34-points against California of Pa., and 33-points the following night against Shippensburg in an LHU win. Kozlowski ended her fabulous career at the Haven by epitomizing consistency that has made her one of LHU's all-time greats Although a return trip to the playoffs eluded her for the third consecutive year, Kozlowski enjoyed a solid season anil along with teammate Suzie Baird, showed the "baby eagles" what college ball is all about. Whereas the men's squad will ^ a v e a player to build around for the next three years, the women will be left with a huge void that will be difficult to fill, not only in physical ability, but in heart and soul. For Shue, a sophmore jinx seems unapparent at this point because there is a sense that Haven fans haven't seen the total package yet and that there is more to be unfurled. As for Kozlowski, Haven fans saw one of the best. Enough said. Vol. 1 No. 1 4 pages Eagle Beagle Friday, April 1,1994 Lock Haven University's Student Newspaper Alien abductions, possible cover-up by Y. Journalist Eagle Beagle Strange and Unusual Reporter For a few University students, spring break was not an enjoyable experience. They left Campus, but they didn't get to go home or on a dream vacation. Their plans were interrupted when they embarked on a different journey, as victims of an alien abduction. Early on the morning of March 4, as thunder accompanied the big snowstorm, strange lights were reported coming from the roof of Price Performance Center by various students on campus. "There was a bunch of flashing bright green and blue colored lights," said Martha Cornfelter, who lives in Russell Hall. "Then all of a sudden they stopped, and I couldn't see what was there .because the snow was falling so hard." Corkie Bonner, Missy Dork and Jon Frogger could tell you quickly what the strange object was. They disappeared that night, and when their families came to pick them up the next day, they were nowhere to be found. Missing person reports were filed with the state police. No motives could be given for the disappearance. "The police told us that my son must have just run away," said Martin Frogger. "I can't believe no one saw a single thing." Apparently the three were snatched from their sleep by small, extremely strong creatures that resembled trolls. One student was taken from Russell Hall, and two were abducted from McEntire Hall. "They knocked us out and dragged us to their ship. They must have been so silent; I can't believe my roommate didn't even hear anything " said Dork who agreed to share her experience. Frogger and Bonner refused to comment. Once on the ship, the three regained con- m9W'*t\ These strange lights could be seen all over campus the morning of March 4. While they had reportedly been seen at several spots on campus, they were mainly seen hovering over Price Performance Center (photo by P. F. Pringle and Big D). sciousness and realized they were flying. Looking out the window, they were far above the earth. "The aliens kept poking us with needles of all sizes, doing so many strange tests," said Dork. "1 was never so scared in my life. I thought I'd never see anyone again. They separated the three of us, too." "They talked in a very strange language," she added. "I asked them what they were and what they were going to do to us, but they wouldn't answer. They just shook their heads." "They had pink hair which stuck out from their heads like a troll's hair," she said. They were very wrinkled and after every word they said they would spit," Dork said. "At one point I was really getting nervous," she continued. "They looked like they were going to perform some kind of operation on me. They were getting out knives and masks of some sort, but luckily I was saved. Something very impwrtant happened at that instant." What happened was that Bonner escaped. The aliens had lowered their flight level.. Spying a parachute, he was out the door and sailing safely to the ground in an instant. That sent fear into the abductors, because they knew he would tell all of what happened as soon as he landed. "At that point they started running around, like they were nervous," said Dork. "They immediately turned the ship around and we were back in Lock Haven in what seemed like seconds." The three were actually missing through all of spring break. Two were returned to the roof of Price Performance Center early on the morning of March 13, and rescued by police after people passing by heard their cries. "It seemed like we were only gone for a matter of 15 minutes," Dork said. Bonner, who jumped from the ship, landed in a field in Texas, where he was hospitalized for minor injuries received when he hit the ground. "I'm not sure how many people actually believe us," said Dork. "But if it didn't really happen, how did Corkie end up in Texas after falling out of the sky?" Dork and Frogger were treated for minor dehydration at a local hospital. Surprisingly, no needle marks remained from the tests. The UFO National Security Council Chief of Staff Edgar Duby said that his committee is looking into the matter. "We get reports like this all the time," he said, "but rarely do we ever find out the truth." Officials now wonder if the damage done to Price, which was formerly thought to be caused by snow, was actually a result of the alien ship landing. The government says that everyone saw a weather ballon and nothing more. For the three students, it was more than just a hoax or a weather balloon. "I'm just glad the whole ordeal is over, although I'm going to be afraid to walk outside in the dark for a really long time," said Dork. Editor in chief killed in desk avalanche Kenneth J. Newquist, of 14 Tine Road, Flanders, NJ, was killed yesterday when a pile of papers, books and computer disks avalanched and swallowed him up. He was 22. Newquist was on INTERnet in the Eagle Beagle office when the desk began to tremble and the junk slid over top of the editor in chief, according to an eye-witness account by Leslie Groene, Eagle Beagle Sports Editor. Groene has been committed to Lock Haven Hospital for psychiatric eval- uation due to the trauma of the event. The only signs of Newquist's existence were a Mets hat and a message on the computer that said "What the - ," according to state police reports. "It's amazing — he was completely swallowed up," said police chief P. Riley Winko. "This just illustrates the dangers of desk uncleanliness. People pile things to incredible heights and think it's still safe. This is an increasing problem." Many of Newquist's friends were in shock. "I told him to clean it, but he never listened," said Sue Heintzelman. "We didn't need him anyway," said April Miller. Memorial services will be held at the site of the tragedy at 1 p.m. on Tuesday, April 5. Donations can be made in honor of the deceased to the Desk Task Force. —Fran Deadbeat Morbid Affairs Reporter news 2 Eagle heagle Friday, April 1, 1994 Elvis to make comeback in Lock Haven Nuke Shakespeare Eagle Beagle Reincarnation Editor_ The King has returned. After a ten-year tour of the afterlife, his sequined highness has returned to the world of the living. The crowned lord of rock'n'roll Elvis Presley will play Hubert Jack Stadium on April 30 to kick off Finals Week. Tickets are $4 for students, $340 for everyone else. Official "I saw Elvis at LHU and I wasn't stoned" t-shirts and velvet paintings will be on sale at the event, as well as commemorative pins and ice cube trays. But how, you ask, could the King return? And why Lock Haven? It all started last Tuesday. Sporting an ivory jumpsuit and a newly cloned, drug-free body, he strutted into the SCC offices, ready to kick off his world tour right here at Lock Haven University. With practiced ease he slipped his hands over his near-perfect hair line and said: "Ah have returned!" Several senators immediately collapsed ~ partly in shock, partly from sun stroke after having looked at the King's glistening blue suede shoes. The rest fell to the ground in worshipful awe "Rise all you little hound dogs," Presley said, his hands outstretched. But they couldn't, so strong was the force of his presence. Finally, Senator Ernest Bullwinkle (who's name has been made up to protect the innocent ... namely us.) approached him. "Err...excuse me sir," Bullwinkle said, "but aren't you, ah, dead?" "Ah was dead son, but lets just say we've got some little friends out there..." He paused, looking towards some distant, unknown point, "who like me. They really like me. In fact, they thought there should be more people like me. So they brought me back." "To Lock Haven?" Bullwinkle said, his awe-struck face suddenly twisted by doubt. The King's brow became furrowed. "Ah course ah came to Lock Haven," he said, his voice deep and soulful, "ma true believer, Ellen Bans, lives in 822 McEntire Hall." "Ah heard her mournful prayers on the other side, and ma little green friends brought me back to answer them." "But what about the rain?" the senator said. The King pulled out his obsidian sun- glasses, sliding them up the bridge of his nose like the rock god that he was. "Don't worry about the rain. Ma friends —" he pointed one finger skyward confidently, "— will take care of it." Then he threw down a program guide with incredible cover art by Matt Vasey, and disappeared in a glimmer of white light. "If you bill it, I will come," were his last, faintly echoing words. And so, preparations have begun. Renovations on Hubert Jack Stadium, already accelerated for the 1997 Super Bowl, have been jump started even more. Accommodations for the 100,000 expected to attend the event (including over 5000 Porta-Johns and over 2000 Elvis artifact vendors) are scheduled to be completed by 2131. That's still too late for the concert, but it's a full 300 years ahead of the Pennsylvania Department of General Services' original schedule. To accommodate the worshipful masses in the meantime. University officials said that they were planning to "borrow a hell of a lot of foldingchairs." When asked what they thought of the concert, students uniformly and without exception replied "That's cool." It's the King! Elvis was caught sneaking around the PUB near Meeting Room 1 (photo byP.F. Pringle), Lock Haven subway project completed by P. F. Pringle Eagle Beagle Underground Reporter transportation For those students who have not noticed all the constuction work going on in and around the downtown area. Lock Haven has finally reached the age of technology. Lock Haven has built its first subway. "For some time now we have had the external fixtures to the subway built," said Mark Diddle, chief construction engineer of the Lock Haven Subway Project. "The three entrances to the subway on the University campus have been there for years." The locations of the three entrances are in front of Ulmer, on the hill beside Sullivan and near the bottom of the PUB. "I'm glad the subway is finally built," said Mona Mousewits, a resident of Lock Haven. "Now students [who cannot get parking stickers] won't be bringing cars to school. Students looking for off campus parking creates a problem for the residents of Lock Haven, because the students park in front of our houses and take away our parking spaces." "It's about time they got that project done," said Norton Banks, a Lock Haven resident. "They started the project in the 1970s and now it's finally done. 1 wonder when the dike/levee project will get done!" Students wanting to go from campus to downtown Lock Haven should take the blue route according to Diddle. "We considered naming the routes going toward the University the burgandy and gray routes because we figured those dumb students can probably remember their school colors." "The subway will be running at night," Diddle said. "But the first time a college student decides to have a party or urinate on the subway it will shut down a 5 p.m. sharp. We won't tolerate any misuse of the facilities." The city of Lock Haven is also planning to bring in some of the subway entertainment found in big cities, according to Margeret Babble, chairperson of the subway entertainment committee. "We've asked some of those people who play the guitar and beg for money to stand at the subway entrances to entertain people," said Babble. "I'm so excited! Right now we're looking for someone who can play Merle Haggard." "We're expecting to make some money off the college students," said Diddle. "Maybe then we'll have a reason for keeping them around!" The fare for a round trip from the University to downtown Lock Haven will be $1. However, students wishing to go to Mill Hall will have to pay $5 because of they will have to take a connecting route. There will also be a half hour layover. "I think the subway is a great idea!" said Curt Migrane, a LHU student.

Friday, April 1,1994 Eagle Beagle 3 The only equipment needed is a gunnysack, burlap bag or even a paper bag (plastic bags are not as effective because they are very noisey and snipes have extremely good hearing) and a candle. In the event that a candle is not available, a flash light can do the job. "I can't wait to go snipe hunting," said sophomore Melissa Schwartz. Hailing from New Jersey, where the snipe population is almost nonexistant, Schwartz never heard of a snipe before she came to Lock Haven. \ Ingredients: 3 medium sized potatoes, sliced 1 c. carrots, sliced 1 c. peas 1/3 c. celery, diced 1/2 tsp. garlic salt 1 c. water Bruce Goodmansen's snipe hunting kit, which includes a field guide, gunnysack and snipe hunting patch is the perfect gift for the novice snipe hunter before you take him or her on the hunt (photo by Cutie-PieH). by Cutie-Pie H. Eagle Beagle Outdoor Editor_ As dusk falls on Deep Woods Country, one can hear that distant call of the wild. The wind -howls and leaves rustle. A lodely greenhorn stands quietly with the sack. His hands tremble in anticipation of the chase. The candle flickering just inches from the gunnysack reveals the excitement on the kid's face ~ the excitement of catching his first snipe. Snipe hunting, like many gaming sports, is usually passed from generation to generation. But in recent years, all ty()es of people, from top CEOs to prarie farmers, have been flocking to Clinton County to join the millions who go on guided hunting excursions. Recently, students at Lock Haven University have joined the ranks of these sportsman. Although guided hunts can cost up to $1,500, students often hunt on the land of a local person they know for as liUle as $2. "I'm not really the hunting type, but it's something different to do." Although Schwartz is weary of eating snipe meat, she is anticipating her excursion after the Easter vacation. Actually snipe tastes very much like chicken. Often mistaken for quail in the wild, snipe does not have the gamey taste associated with most hunted birds. Snijjes were one of the foods sought as delicacies by Native Americans in the Eastern United States. Bruce Goodmansen's book The Official Snipe Hunting Field Guide documents a cave painting by the Snipe I*ie 1/3 c. onion, diced 1 c. white turnips 2 c. brussels sprouts. 1 c. artichoke hearts 2 lb. snipe meat (appprox. 2 adult birds) 1 T.

Flooding to make town famous by Big Bear Eagle Beagle Movie Production Critic The river's rising. People are worried. The dike isn't finished, and even if it was, would it help? The possibility of large amounts of water spilling over the banks of the Susquehanna River and into the town looms in the air. Under this dark cloud, however, a ray of sunshine warms the little town of Lock Haven. You're wondering how this can be? Well, the rising Susquehanna is going to make this little town famous. Now you're wondering even more. Lock Haven famous? Impossible, you say. It's simple, though - this litde town on the bank of the Susquehanna is going to be the site for the filming of a major motion picture re-inacting the great biblical flood. Yes, a movie about the flood that lasted 40 days and 40 nights is going to be filmed right here in Lock Haven, and the University is going to be a part of it! The lumber for the construction of the ark, along with the filming crew, will be rolling into town on Monday. That's also when auditions for the cast of TVie Wa/er's Risin'- Bring Those Animals Aboard, TVoa/i.'will begin. University President Craig Dean Willis has already signed a contract to play the lead role of Noah. "I can't believe I'm getting the chance to become a star," Willis said. "1 can hardly wait to hop on that ark and begin acting!" Casting for the movie isn't complete, yet, however. The roles of the animals still need to be filled. That's where University students come into the picture. "Thestf roles cannot be filled by the timid," said Barney Redrock, a member of the filming crew. "We want students who aren't afraid to get a little crazy." This is indeed true. The students who play animal characters will sport animal costumes and put a lot of energy into playing their roles. "We heard there's a TJOO in town," Redrock said. "We figure that's a good place to begin our search for students to play these characters." The University mascot, the Bald Eagle, has already been selected to be a member of the cast. "This is going to be the experience of a lifetime, plus it's a great way to earn a few extra bucks," he said. Auditions for the movie's cast will begin on Monday, April 11. Interested students should report to Sloan Auditorium between 8 ajn. and 8 p.m. Costumes will be provided. Cheeokee Indians from approximatley 1732. The familiar word "sniper" also originated from the word snipe. From its Scandinavian origin, the word sniffer means one who shoots from a hidden position. Originally a marsh animal of the South, snipes slowly migrated north and have adapted to the wooded areas of Central Pennsylvania. Roy Silvis and his girlfriend Tracy Hower enjoy snipe hunting in the evening hours. "It's a great way to relax after a long day of physics and zoology," said Hower. "It also gives me the opportunity to study the plant and animal life for the different biology courses 1 have." Silvis said snipe hunting is a tradition in his family that he introduced to Hower. "My parents always say, 'Don't worry 'bout your mate running off with another woman or man if you take them snipe huntin' in the wooded land.' There have not been any divorces in my family because husbands and wives always go snifje hunting together."

In a statement released by the league office on Thursday, Tagliabue stated, "We picked Lock Haven because we wanted to bring the NFL experience to a small town and to try and break away from all the fanfare and hoopla that overshadows the game itself when it's held in a large city. "Another reason for our selection was to give the people of Lock Haven something to do, for god's sake." Hubert Jack beat out a host of more lavish stadiums such as the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif.; The Pontiac Silverdome in Pontiac, Mich.; and New Orleans' Superdome. To accommodate the Super Bowl and the financial obligations needed to support such an event, town officails are planning a series of fund-raising events which include a town car wash, a round robin dart tournament at the a local bar, and a country dance contest sponsored by a local radio station. Plans are already in order to renovate Hubert Jack Stadium with hopes of adding 50,000 more seats and 75 luxury penthouse boxes. In reality, that would take three years according to city ordinance 65A-I8Z, but officials say they can revise the rule and knock ^ ^.- • . .- _ " I*.., 00" W W OM '^i^^Bi.^ 1™ • *^ Wr 1 ^ 1^ j^w ^ After the planned construction on Hubert Jack Stadium, most students will not be able to recognize the field that will soon be hosting the 1997 Super Bowl (photo by Big D). out construction in one and a half years. The NFL also added that they would help fund any problems the city may run into in meeting the Super Bowl's needs. The Lock Haven University administration is in full support of the NFL's announcement and feels that it would in no way disrupt the school calendar or the interest of the students. Students living in Smith, Woolridge, Rus- sell, and North Hall will have to find someplace else to live during the two weeks leading up to the game. These residence halls will be used to accommodate the players, media personnel, and league officials. Bentley Hall would also be closed during that period and Zimmerli Gymnasium and Thomas Fieldhouse would be used exclusively by employees of the NFL. When word of the announcement got around campus, the students went into an immediate frenzy. "This is like gonna be so cool, like oh my god dude, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh," said one university student. Even with all the attention that the Super Bowl would bring to Lock Haven, some students seem skeptical of the idea. "Football is such a barbaric display of humanity and it is a symbol of the degregation of our society and I have four finals that week," said another student. Even though there are a few cynics the overall atmosphere in town and on campus is generally upbeat and the people are looking forward to hosting such an enormous event. "There hasn't been this much excitement in town since we held that monster truck tractor pull back in '82," said one resident. The NFL is also upbeat about the recent announcement although a few players are curious as to where Lock Haven actually is. Emmit Smith of the Dallas Cowboys said, "1 honestly never heard of Lock Haven before but I think they buy my shoes there, so hey, I 'm all for it." Rumors floating around the league office in New York say that the NFL would like to bring a franchise to Lock Haven but no details have been disclosed as of yet. With all the positive news coming from the league on the Super Bowl decision, there has been one minor setback. The league had signed Pearl Jam and Snoop Dog to perform during the halftime festivities but the town people opted for Meatloaf instead.
