"Jeff and I have the same
goals and same objectives,
"Lepley said. "We're going to work hard together
next semester to avoid any
problems next year."

The aboriginal creation
myth, pollution, reincarnation and marriage customs were just a few of the
topics discussed by Australia's best-selling poet,
Kath Walker, during her
visit to Lock Haven State
last Thursday.
The poet lectured and
answered questions in
several classes Thursday,
and presented a program
that evening in Sloan Auditorium. A movie was
shown, and Walker read
selections from her poetry.
The 58 year-old is more
than a poet. She is a dedicated worker for civil rights
and preserving remaining
aspects of the aboriginal
culture. She lives simply on
an island in Australia called
Stradbroke. Her home has
become a kind of learning
center for children who
wish to leam the aboriginal
myths and way of life.
Walker relayed some of
those myths to students,
faculty and visitors during
her visft to LHS. She talked
about the myth of the
Rainbow Serpent, the creature which is the aboriginal
"Mother of Life!' According to legend, the Rainbow
Serpent came onto the
earth from, underground
and crawled around, forming valleys and pits. Then
frogs emerged from underground, with their stomachs full of water. The
serpent made them laugh

and thev spit out ail the
water, filling the valleys tc
form rivers and lakes.
Other animals and plants
appeared and the Rainbow
Serpent made laws and
gave all creatures a
position.
A great respect for
nature among aboriginal
people stems from the
Rainbow Serpent myth.
Walker believes that man
must live in harmony with
nature if he is to survive.
She talked about the problem of pollution and said,
"When a creature dirties
the nest too much, he must
move on!' She said it is
frightening for her to see
what Americans have done
to their country, and added,
"and now they're going to
space!'
Aboriginals believe in
reincarnation, according to
Walker who said they are
not judged by their lives She
spoke of aboriginal law and
said the tribes are ruled by
elders. She feels it is dangerous, she said, to give too
much power to too few people. Aboriginal groups are
governed not by majority
vote, said Walker, but
unanimous vote. She stressed the importance of old
people in the society. A
very honorable title among
aboriginals, she said, is
"Old One!'
She spoke of the white
men who came to Australia
and forced most of i h e

aboriginals to give uo their
way ot life for the white's
way. Although she has vety
deep feelings about the loss
of aboriginal culture; and
works very hard to preserve
whatremains. Walker said
she feels no hate for the
white man. "I can't hatei'

she said, "hate is not oart
of my VOCMraiaiy: T^iust
feel frustrated, 1 just feel
confused."
A poem Walker wrote to
her people conceming the
white man appears in
today's "Poetry Comer"

Social Work Majors Attempt Many Projects
MAi«rv UAVIS
..AIT,.,
NANCY
The Social Work Majors
are on the go again this
year. Since 1970, Social
Work Majors and others
who wanted to adopt the
role of friendly visitor and
advocate, have been making life happy for the
institutionalized elderly by
providing them with many
activities. Students visit elderly people between 10-30
hours weekly. This semester there are approximately
25 students who visit two or
more elderly people at
Susque-View, a home for
the elderly lockated in Lock
Haven. These students are
assigned to specific residents to develop new relationships. This program
is used as an opportunity to
sensitize community, college, and Lock Haven area
to the needs of institutionalized elderly. Mrs. Lynch,
founder of this program
stated, "We (social work-

.ers)
r c ^ see
« ^ «ourselves
, . , « ! „ « « «ash <having
.„inf
? mission of advocacy in
the community. We want to
address feelings of isolation
and rejection that are
frequent characteristics of
intitutionalized elderly persons." The Social Work
Majors raise funds once a
year throughout the campus and community to
operate all their functions.
They seek support of the
whole college, community,
administration, faculty,
staff, students, sororities,
and fraternities. In the
larger community, they
approach all segments and
actively seek support of
corporations, businesses,
professionals, banks, service clubs, and private
citizens. The involved students have been very successful over years in gaining the acceptance of the
community and have found
people and businesses most
willing to support this

enoeavor
Many hours are exper
ded in preparing for i
Christmas party held each
year at Susque-View. With
the funds that are collected,
the students purchase
multiple gifts for one hundred and sixty people,
provide refreshments, and
entertain the elderly people
focusing on Mr. and Mrs.
Santa Claus laden with
gifts. Because of the
eenerosity of the contribu-

toft,
group anas

able tothe
establish
birthday
fund in which each elderly.,^
person at Susque-View receives a gift on his birthday. The remaining funds
are used to sponsor a
spring party at which a gift
is presented to all residents. The gifts are small
usable items to make the
individual feel wanted and
loved. With inflation it becomes harder and harder to
purchase gifts, but the

Social Wort group
group feels
that they alive a worthwhile cause. Mrs. Lynch
believes that it has become
an institutionalized program in the community and
feels that perhaps the
community could be mobilized in other ways to respond to needs of the
elderly living in the community who are homebound, isolated, and in
need of recurring expressions of respect and love.

Teacher Hopefuls Rejoice- Jobs!
The next teacher shortage is just around the
corner and will be as severe
as that of the 1950's and
'60's, according to new
studies summarized by the
Illinois Assn. of School
Boards. Louisiana State U.
researchers predict a real
shortage by the mid-1980's.
Manv education graduates
will go into liigher-paying

fields, they say. In addition, the pupi' teacher ratio
continues to decline and the
result is at least 23,000 new
positions for each reduction
of one student per teacher.
Another study says that
teacher training institutions
have declined "too rapidly" in their production of
teachers. The number of
graduates declined 28Vi

trom i971 to 1976, says the
Assn. for School, College
and University Staffing.
And government studies
say the birth rate and the
number of women of
child-bearing age are increasing, (nilnola School

EAGLE EYE

Editorial Point Of
By CHRISTOPHER FLYNN
The SCC Executive Elections were held
yesterday, and until now I've held back my
personal opinion regarding the candidates.
The progressives were elected by a landslide-hell
Dave Lepley got 412 votes, almost a quarter of the
student body voted. Where was everyone else?
"Don't care," is what I usually hear. Ninety dollars
a year is a lot of money not to care about. That's
what the Student Coop Council takes out of your
pocket every year. Perhaps you didn't realize that. I
could go on ranting and raving about the
importance of becoming involved in something
which concerns not only yourself, but your
community as well. But if people don't care, well
they just don't care. So the progressives as they
refer to themselves will soon find out that there is
little they can do to keep from becoming;
someone's words, too powerful!
It's the way the system works. Reading over this
editorial I have discovered that I did not give my
opinion of those who were and were not elected.
The opinion stated was probably more worthwhile.

Congratulations to the Progressive Slate for its
convincing victory in yesterday's SCC Executive
Committee elections.
The winners showed much enthusiasm during
their campaign, and Lepley indicated last night,
after learning the results, that the same enthusiasm
will be present during his slate's administration.
The Progressive Slate had promised us progress,
and it is the duty of all students to make sure they
keep that promise. If you have complaints, by all
means, complain. Use the Eagle Eye as a forum or
take complaints directly to the Executive
Committee.
Students must work together to make the
government work for them.
W e have just seen a big change occur within the
SCC. Let's hope the SCC sees a change in the
student body.

Letters to the Editor
Dear Editor,
I have been following the
"Letters to the Editor"
column with interest, and
would like to add my own
opinion to the list.
All of these letters have
brought back memories of a
time when I too strove to be
"cool," and tended to write
off people who were
different from myself. I
would be lying if I said that
I was never guilty of having
done this, or that I don't
still, at times. It is a habit
which is hard to break. It's
very easy to label people
into pigeonholes and call
them "weird," rather than
making the effort to get to
know them as human
beings of worth. It is also a
great way to boost one's
ego and justify one's own
behavior to go around
thinking that everyone else
is the wierdo The key word
behind this whole issue is
maturity. The mature person who is confident in
himself doesn't have this
need to feel superior to
someone else. He realizes
someone else. He realizes

that although his opinions
and values are right for
himself, they are not
necessarily the only valid
opinions and values. He
knows that every individual
is unique, and that
"different" means just
that-different-not
better,
not worse.
So, those of you who feel
outcast because you are
nonconformists should not
resent, but rather feel sorry
for those who are putting
you down. They are the
ones who lack self-confidence and maturity. And
they are the ones who lose
out in the end by ignoring
so much ofthe richness and
beauty which can be found
in every human being. In
the words of Henry David
Thoreau, "If a man does
not keep pace with his
companions, perhaps it is
because he hears a
different drummer. Let him
step to the music he hears,
however measured or far
away."
Karen Rathgeber

Irving Forbush Evokes Replies ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
wanted the world to relate
to them, they would find a
way without conforming.
I suppose if you must
categorize everyone into
groups of conformist and
nonconformist, eventhough
you cannot, I would be a
nonconformist. I do not
"kiss ass" but I do not go
around shouting unfair
either. I do something to
change the situation to my
liking.
In grade school and high
school I was never one of
the "crowd" or a "wellbuilt female" or a "toad"

but I had friends. I knew
the fiiends I had were
friends. Most of the other
people, I would rather not
have known or would not
have wanted to know as
well as I knew my friends.
My feeling toward those
people who did not "want"
to know me as their friend
was and is simply "your
loss." This may sound conceited but it is not meant to,
it simply means I am me, I
like me as I am, I know I am
not perfect but I am good
enough for me, I have a lot
to offer and if you do not

oiacK actors two white guys
in the lounge made the
remark that blacks should
just be taken away and
shot. There's only one word
that describes that kind of
attitude-sad. I don't want to
sound like I'm on a mission
of peace, but I really hate to
see that type of attitude.
Mr. Forbush, as I said in
my previous reply, we can't
let our differences divide
us. We have to get along
with each other in spite of
the fact that we mav be

different and that includes
any differences in our social
lives.
Irving, you have to get
rid of your grudge against
drinkers and conformists.
The first step in doing that
is to realize the whole world
does not belong "to the
ultra-macho male and the
well-built female and the
toads who bow to their
every command." The
world is partly your's, man.
Don't be ashamed to claim
your part of it. And don't be
ashamed of what you do
with it either. If you decide
to conform that's fine. If
you decide to be a
non-conformist that's fine
with me too. You do with
your part of the world what
you wish.
Irving if you aren't
ashamed of your own world
and you're not ashamed of
what you do with it, then
people will begin to respect
you for it. And the best and
most important part of all is
when you get into other
people's worlds and care
about each other a little bit
more. Don't let any
differences cut you off. We
all are real human beings
and that's how we have to
relate to each other; not as
drinkers and nondrinkers or
conformists or nonconformists. You have to do it

Dear Mr. Forbash,
I do not think you are
asking too much and I
would not think of using
Mr. Flynn's brand of
"humor." Whether or not
you think' this reply is
intelligent is up to you.
I think you are not trying
to be "accepted." if that is
what you want. Eventhough it is not necessary
and you say it will never
happen, it can. You seem te
cite examples d "mlsllto"
who the world dr^aft not
want to relate tow if they

believe that, I am sorry but
you're the one missing out
because you cannot accept
someone different.
I am a nonsmoker, I do
not need drugs but I do
drink when I wish to, but I
do not revolt against those
who do any of these. I
cannot condemn but I can
criticize. I can tell them all
the "bad" things about
their actions and I can feel
sorry for them and help
them if they want help.
These are the same types of
people who "looked down"
on me in grade school and

Anotner Letter.
Dear Irving Forbush,
Thank you for your reply
to my letter. I'd like to
clarify my stand a bit more
for you.
I know this sounds trite,
Mr. Forbush, but one thing
I very sincerely believe is
that people have to start
getting along better with
each other on an individual
basis. Several weeks ago I
was watching TV in our
floor's lounge. During a

So Mr. Forbush try to

what you want. The world
is really made up of misfits.
Some, many of these

POETRY CORNER
LET US NOT BE BITTER
By Kath Walker
Away with bitterness,
my own dark people
Come Stand with me, look forward, not back.
For a new time has come for us.
Now we must change, my people. For so long
Time for us stood still; now we know
Life is change, life is progress,
Life is learning things, life is onward.
White men had to learn civilized
ways,
Now it is our turn.
Away with bitterness and the bitter past;
Let us try to understand the white man's ways
And accept them as they accept us;
Let us judge white people by the best of their race.
The prejudiced ones are less than we.
We want them no more than they want us.
Let us not be bitter, that is an empty
thing,
A maggot in the mind.
The past is gone like our childhood days of old,
The future comes like dawn after the dark.
Bringing
fulfilment.

Commentary

November 17, a very special performer w i l l
appear at Lock Haven State College. Suzanne Fox,
a pantomimist, will present a workshop and
performance under the combined sponsorship of
Human Relations, Cultural Affairs, and Women's
Resource Organization.
M s . Fox's program is " . . . a product of her
experience and observation as a woman, yet her
perceptions speak to the universality of the human
condition - its strength and its foibles." Having
studied with Marcel Marceau and Jacques Le Coq
as well as at Boston University, M s . Fox is a
qualified and energetic teacher. She has written,
directed, costumed, and produced her own
programs, co-founded the National M i m e Theatre,
and is currently touring the United States with
FACETS, a one-woman mime program. She has
also appeared on the M e r v Griffin Show.
M i m e is trickery. Trickery which we are willing to
accept - stairs which do not exist and winds which
do not blow. The mime climbs the stairs and
struggles against the wind.
The stairs and w i n d , invisible but present are the
mime's craft. M s . Fox takes the craft and moves it
to a personal artistic form, stretching the
limitations of classical mime.
The presentation is free and all interested
persons ae invited to attend the workshop to be
held in Sloan 321 at 12:00 noon and the evening
performance at 8:Q0pm in Sloan Theatre Friday.

COMMENTARY
By LAURA KEELER
" W h o are these people?" That's what I was
saying to myself as I momentarily pondered at the
polls. I was baffled. Sure, I recognized a few names
Dave Lepley is a counselor on second floor Smith
where I spend a great deal of time, and Ron Beaver
lives there, too. Jeff Bomboy is in my American
National Government class. However, besides
those three, the ballot contained too many
mysterious names. The t e r m "progressive" came
to m i n d - oh, yes, that was on M r . Bomboy's " I am
a progressive" t-shirt and many, many posters.
Because I am new here, Friday's editorial meant
literally nothing, because I have no idea about what
the incumbents accomplished during their term of
office. Also, what are the major issues in this
election and why is it " t i m e for a change? A m I
supposed to make a selection between re-electing
people I don't know who supposedly did an O.K.
job with whatever they d i d and people that I can
identify on sight with little or no experience in
solving this year's problems which I know nothmg

about?

,

Taking into consideration how much everyone is
encouraged to vote here, why should it be such a
difficult task to find out who's running and what
they want to accomplish? Freshman comprise
one-fourth of the LHSC student body. In a close
race, one uninformed freshman vote could make
the difference. W o u l d n ' t it benefit someone to
inform us???

By PATRICIA MEASE
I am quite angry about an incident which took
place on Wednesday, November 8, 1978, in the
vicinity of Sullivan Hall!
At approximately 1:45pm, after experiencing a
very tumultuous morning, I was confronted by
some groups of students who were blocking each of
the entrances to Sullivan Hall, and who would not
permit me to enter the building unless I showed
them some form of identification. Since I am not in
the habit of carrying my identification cards with
me on such excursions as simply walking down the
hill from Gross H a l l , in order to secure my paycheck
from the payroll office located in Sullivan Hall, I
was unable to supply the student's with any I.D.
When I questioned the students as to why I was
required to provide I.D., I was given the intelligent
response of " j u s t because." Needless to say, I was
frustrated!
After my attempts at entering the front door
failed, I proceeded around the building to the back
dor, where I was again denied entry to the building,
but where I did leam that what was going on was
called a " H a p p e n i n g . " This " H a p p e n i n g " was an
experiment being done by the students in the
"Seminar in New Theater" class, which is taught
by Professor Gordon.
After one more attempt at the front door, at
which point I was physically restrained by two
students, I was fit-to-be tied and practically in
tears!
I feel it is an outrage for this sort of experiment to
take place, in which students' lives are directly
affected. Did Professor Gordon' and his students
know what sort of appointments or obligations I
may have had, which they may have been
interferring with? No, they did not; nor d i d they
seem to care. In my opinion, such behavior is the
epitome of inconsideration.
I question the right of this professor, and of the
students, to interfere with my daily activities.
Nowhere in the student handbook is it stated that it
is required for a student to provide another student
with identification, for any reason whatsoever. It
also says absolutely nothing about students being
required to have I.D. in their possession at all
times. The identification policy simply states,
"Residents and/or guests are required to identify
themselves upon request of college officials."
A c c o r d i n g to t h i s s t a t e m e n t , t h e n ,
the
requirements imposed upon me by Professor
Gordon's students were in direct violation of my
rights as a student, as well as my individual rights.
Unless my perceptions are incorrect, I have
always viewed theater as being a voluntary
experience for those who participate. I certainly
was not a voluntary participant in this particular
experience, and I resent being subjected to such
whimsical escapades. In the future, I hope that
Professor Gordon instructs his students to conduct
more constructive theater experiments. Wise up
Professor Gordon I

There's a little town in England, called Hove and
last weekend through the magic of grease-paint and
lights, and frayed nerves and sweaty faces we were
all transported there for a brief visit.
W e were taken to the home of Arthur Wicksteed
M . D . (Gary Puzzella).
Wicksteed is a man who has become somewhat
disillusioned with life until a beautiful young g i r l ,
Miss Felicity Rumpers ( T . J . Town), walks into his
office.
To take "Habeas C o r p u s " apart piece by piece
would do the play an injustice, due to its ensemble
nature. However there were some outstanding
performances.
The pace was exasperating, due mostly to t h e
i n c r e d i b l e character p o r t r a y a l s of Sharon
Schawalder as the all seeing, all knowing
h o u s e m a i d and G w e n H u m m e l as M u r i e l
Wicksteed, a woman in her early fifties who has
hardly forgotten about sex. Both were quick-witted
and very in touch with their characters.
Other characters in the play worthy of note are:
Maureen Tully as Constance Wicksteed her bouncy
and of times titilating performance was most
refreshing, Curt Buckler the man who was looking
for the woman w i t h the falsies gave a strong
performance for a man in his underwear
Scenery and props were hardly in abundance,
which put the focus entirely on the actors. The
bright colors of the flat construction were obvious,
but never over powering.
Rounding out the people of special mention are:
David Shuey in a absolutely heart-warming
portrayal of the Wicksteed's hypocondriac son
Dennis, and T . J . Town as the coniving but beautiful
young girl he falls in love w i t h .
"Habeas Corpus" was a nice way to spend t h e
evening. There was enough broadfarce and
pleasant innpndo to please anybody's taste.

EAGLE EYE

Bald Eagles End Season With Frustrating Loss
T h e Bald Eagle football
squad ended its disappointing season Saturday, by
saving the most frustrating
loss for last. Holding a
three point lead with two
minutes remaining, the
Lock Haven defense could
not contain the Slippery
Rock passing attack and
gave up the winning
touchdown with less than a
minute on the clock.
The Eagles again got off
to a commanding start,
leading 17-0 at halftime,
but did not hold on, and
wound up on the short end
ofthe score 29-25. The final
record this year for the Bald
Eagles was 1-8-1.
The Eagle offense put 14
points on the board in the
opening quarter and it
looked like an upset in the
making. Nine plays after
taking the opening kick-off,
quarterback Dan Spittal
connected with Jimmy Hall
on a 21 yeard TD pass. Ten
and twenty yard passes to
Sementelli and Hall highlighted the drive before the
scoring strikp.

The Eagles quickly went
ahead 14-0, as Bill Sementelli took in another Spittal
pass, and raced 71 yards for
the score. This drive took
only two plays, following a
Slippery Rock punt.
Kent Harshman booted a
20 yard field goal to give
the Eagles a 17-0 lead,
which they held at halftime. A fine Slippery Rock
defensive stand kept the
Eagles form a third first
half touchdown. A 32 yard
pass form Spittal to Bryan
Statler covered 32 of the 51
yards in the drive.
The second half could
have been called the Chuck
Sirco show. 45 of the 52
plays the Slippery Rock
offense ran in the half, the
Rocket quarterback threw
or ran the ball himself. On
the day, Sirco was 28 of 46
for 334 yeards as he lead a
courageous comeback by
the Rockets.
The Rockets scored 15
points in the third quarter,
to make the score 17-15 at
the end of three and'set the

Settle Places 12thVies for Nationals

In aaturoay s regional
cross country meet, junior
George Seftle, was the only
Lock Haven runner to qualify for the national neet next
week as he finished 12th at
25:19 in the five mile race
at Lebanon Valley College.
Lock Haven as a team finished 17th out of 22 schools
participating.
" I ' m e l a t e d ! " stated
coach Dolan, "George ran a
very gutty race against
some very tough competition. He knew what he
had to do, and he went out
and did it." Besides the top
five teams in the meet, only
six other individuals are
able to qualify for the
national meet. Sleftle's performance gave him the
sixth spot of those six
individuals.
Coming in behind Seftle

Greg Loht 104th (27:27),

Skip Rice 117th (28:02),
Bob Walker 124th (28:43),
and Pete DiGiroIamo 126th
(28:54). The state colleges
of Pennsylvania were well
represented at the meet
which also included Delaware, Maryland, and New
Jersey. Millersville won the
meet with 119 points and
Slippery Rock was third
with 137 points. It was the
last race of the year for the
team as they finished with a
6-4 dual meet record.
Commenting on the year
Dolan stated that it was a
rough one. "We lost three
out of our top six runners
which really hurt." Dolan is
optimistic for next year as
all the runners but one,
captain Greg Loht, return.
Seftle will continue training this week for nationals
to be held at Augusta
College in Illinois this
Saturday.

New Assistant Coach
By UARY SIEGEL
Lock Haven State College
has a new assistant football
coach and teacher in Mr.
Russ Carmen. Mr. Carmen,
a native of the scenic state
of Rhode Island, recently
bt^an his first year as a
teacher and coach here at
LHS.
As an undergraduate,
Mr. Carmen attended Slippery Rock State College
where he majored in physical education. At Slippery
Rock he was a member of
the Rock's football team.
He then completed his
graduate studies in physical education at the University of Rhode Island.
While at Rhode Island, Mr.
Carmen was teaching assistant as well as a football
coach.
Mr. Carmen feels that
there are some basic

differences between LHS
and the University of Rhode
Island. He said that Rhode
Island is a much bigger
school, but that the physical education department is
better here at LHS.
At LHS Mr. Carmen
teaches football, wrestling,
coaching of baseball and
adaptives. Adaptives is the
teaching of physical education to special people.
Being an assistant football coach takes up a lot of
Mr. Carmen's time. His
main job for the varsity is
that of defensive coordinator, which includes working
with the defensive secondary. In his spare time Mr.
Carmen enjoys camping
and baseball.
For his future plans he
would like to be a headcoach someday, somewhere.

scene for an exciting tmai
fifteen minutes of the
season.
A six play drive mounted
by Slippery Rock midway
through the final period
gave the Rockets the lead
for the first time at 22-17.
The drive was climaxed by
a 15 yard strike from Sirco
to Russ Grimm.
Larry Davis returned the
ensuing kick-off 24 yards to
the Haven 26, this is where
the Eagles would start its
go ahead drive from. Spiftal
hit Sementelli for 22 yards,
and the Eagles had a first
down near midfield. The
following play, a pass interference penalty, gave
the Eagles a first down on
the Rock 41. On a third and
seven play, Spittal scrambled for nine and gave the
Eagles another first down
at the 29. Four plays later,
Spittal hit Sementelli, for a
19 yard touchdown pass
that gave the Eagles a one
point lead 23-22. A two

point conversion gave the
Eagles a three point lead as
Sementelli caught another
pass in the end-zone.
The Rockets got no
return on the kick-off and
had to start their final drive
from the 22. Sirco Scrambled for twenty yards on the
first play, then threw two
successive incompletions.
Facing a third and ten,
Sirco hit Larry Constainstine for 14 yards and the
Rockets were in Lock
Haven territory, at the 42.
The next play saw Sirco
completing another pass,
this one a ten-yarder to
Grimm, that gave the
Rockets another first down,
with only 2:40 to play.
Following a short scramble
and a quarterback sack, the
Rockets were faced with
third and six. Sirco went to
his favorite receiver in this
position, tight-end Bob
Schrantz who had 14
catches on the day, this
play went for seven yards

LHS hangs Lynchburg
The Lock Haven State
Eagles are on their way to
winning the Pennsylvania
Southern Regional Championship after
beating
Lynchburg college of Virginia, 2-0 on Saturday.
In the pregame strategy
discussion, it was agreed
that an early goal was
needed. Travor Adair, with
an assist from Larry Jones,
neatly made that goal a
reality at 7:00 into the first
half with a kick off of the
crossbar.
In the second half a shot
by Adair (assisted by Scott
Cardin), at 48:00 into the
game sailed past the Lynchburg goalie.
Coach Mike Parker felt
the LHS team did not look
their-best. Thev came on
with a " lethargic attitude"
and were not "creating
chances" Parker felt the
win was satisfying, especially since six of Lock
Haven's starters were injured during Wednesday's
game against Shippensburg.
Parker said a "solid game"
was played by the Back
Four: junior Bert Gottbrecht, freshman Rob
Galbraith, junior Phil Fowler and sophomore Bill
Hibbs. He was also
impressed by freshman
goalie Mike Bobby's performance.
Final stats saw Lock

Haven chalking up 16 shots
on goal versus Lynchburg's
six. The Haven had nine
corner kicks over Lynchburg's five and goalkeeper
saves were 3:2 in Lock Haven's favor.

the first of her two goals at
10:00. About two minutes

loss. Lock Haven's head
coach, Sharon Taylor said,
"Despite the loss, I'm real
proud of the fine season
these girls have had. When
you consider we had only
two regulars back form last

that this team would finish
ranked fourth in the East."

afternoon for the Eagles.

game. Lock Haven still
finished on the short end.
