Firat of ail, let me make it very clear that this is not an attack on Coach Fisher or the team, but rather on your presentation of the facts. It is my intention to convey the facts in a mora realistto manner. The accomplishments that you referred to in, your article (Coach of the Year, PSAC title) are accolades of the past. Let me focus on the more recent past. 1 Fact I: Three consecutive losing seasons in the past three seasons, in additton, you stated that Coach Fisher has had only four losing seasons. Let me remind you that he has bean head coach for only eight seasons. Fact il: Coach Fisher's career record as head coach at Lock Haven is 33-47-1 for an approximate winning percentage of .407. EacLUl: Three-fourths of your arttoia focused on the 1979 championship team. However, you failed to print the fact that it was an Inherited' team. Also, wa believe that the true marl( of a collegiate coach is revealed four years after his initial season. This allows for the coach to recruit and buito his team. Once again, this Is by no means a personal attack on Coach Fisher or the players, it is my opinton that Lod^ Haven has seen good talent in recent years. Sincerely, Bob Reynolds EDITORIAL Thanksgiving Reflections Thanleen given. The hostess was not there, but the donatton t)Ox was. It contained a 3 by 5 card folded about three times with this written on it: "What about our own people here in the U.S. first?" That was it. Faculty and staff on this campus can moan and groan about the apathy and narrow-mindedness of students here. Where is the leadership? Some of you may btow this off by saying, "That naive, do-gooder nun—what does she know?" I'd like to talk with people sometime-if people would ever come to talk—and share some of what I know and think, and learn abo>jt what you know and think. By the way, thanks to the three people who sent ciiecks for Oxfam in today's mall. And can you guess how much—total—was put into the two donation boxes-in the faculty dining room and the PUB? $6.2a Sincerely, Sr Maureen McDonnell, O.P. A TRIBUTE TO SUSAN HALL By Oavid Gittelman / #>ink the Eagla Ey owes Sue Hall an epilogue. Something tttat was missing from your front page story of Tuesday, Novemt>er 19 was Sue Hall, ttte woman. You covered Sue Hall, the incident, the tragedy, the 'story." But I knew her, and there was something miasing. I tmpe you wili print this for her friends, her family and her colleagues, so that they have something more to rememlier and treasure than our own individual memories and the reminder of a tem'ble, unexplained death. Sue Hall was a hard worker. She was an "A" student, and had Just deckled that she wanted to major in French. At 27, she regretted not beginning college straight out of high achool. The burden of working part time and going to school part time was ever present in Sue's rife. Her answer to the problem, however, was to work as long and as hard as she needed to in both aspects of her life to achieve a quality and standard she fett comfortable with. This quality was always of the highest. Sue was a vital, alive person. Being around her energized me, and I'm sure she has affected others similarly. She had a highly-developed sense of right and wrong, and wouldn't stand for circumstances she thought were unjust. She had a mind, and she had a mouth; she knew how to use tx>th of them. She was never afraid or hesitant to form her own opinkins and to stand by them, and she waa never chaed-mlnded ermugh to not listen to someone else's. Sue was always very k>yal, and she valued loyalty in others. She inspired friends to be good friends, and acquaintances to be cordial acquaintances. Her sense of humor was perhaps the most outstanding part of her personality to one first meeting her (I remember, because it was not so long ago that I first met her). She smiled a lot - it was her nature. Stte kjved a good pun now and then. She woukl often launch into a funny accent or dialect when describing something. Sue Hail always kxiked for the best in people. She almost always found something to like in each person. When I think about Sue, and the fact that she's not here anymore, I think that I have hst a friend that I had only, it seems, begun to know at all. I think that she wouki confide in me when she was mad at something that was going on; that she trusted me with things that were important to her. I think that she had vacation time left that she wont get a chance to take, and that's not fair. / think that we used to talk alx)ut going out for a beer sometimes when things got rough, and we never got a (^arKe to. I think that people like Sue arent supposed to just leave. And I dont understand why she had to. It's hard for me to be at aii positive that Sue isnt a part of my everyday life anymore. But I remember the words to a song that's t>een in my life for a while now, and they sort of symbolize what i hope she has found. I thought of these lyrics as I drove home from her wake, and they made me cry. fii close with these lyrics, by Stephen Schwartz, from the show pippin. Rivers t)ehng where they can ramble Eagles behng where they can fly I've got to be where my spirit can run frea Got to find my comer of the sky Tuesday, November 26,1985 Eagle Eye 3 .T§ SFOMTS SIPOETS SIPOHTS SPOETS SPOETS SPOETS SP« Utica College captures Lady Eagle Classic By-Karen Merlie StaffReporter Utica Coiiege women's basketball team, led by Maureen Fauscher, tournament M.V.P., won the 1985 Lady Eagle Classic basketball tournament with an impressive performance over West Chester.

BASKETBALL UPDATE: LOCK HAVEN LINCOLN UNIVERSITY 90 64 KEVIN CHARNEY LED THE EAGLES WITH 26 POINTS 4 Eagle Eya Tuesday, November 26,1985 @p [)©Dna ]mD Mi^M m lite ^®2j^ — B a c k t o t h e F u t u r e By Matt Connor Co-Editor What happens when an '80's hotshot finds himself trapped in 1955? Good Questton. Back to the Future has all the answers. And then some. Starring Michael J. (Tamily Ties") Fox In the starring role, Back to the Future is, quite frankly, one of the most entertaining movies you can see this seasoq. The plot involves Marty McFly, a teenager In 1985, who, through the ato a slightiy mad professor (played to the uproarious hilt by Christopher Ltoyd) and his Delorian time-machine, somehow ends up in the 1950's. A great deal of the humor in the film stems from Fox's frustrating attempts to communtoate to a 1950's worto with 1985 lingo, even to the point of convincing the mad scientist that he's from the future and is friends with him in 1985; "K you're from the future," the doubting professor asks, "Who is the President of the United States in 1985?" "Ronald Reagan." Fox answers. "The movie actor?!" Lloyd replies with a laugh, "And I suppose Jane Wyman is the first lady!" The film moves at a whiriwind pace. In fact, if you stop watching to ask the person next to you what a charactor may have just said, you'll almost surely miss something else. As for the cast. Fox Is one of the most amiable personalities to grace the screen for quite some time, and as mentioned earlier, Lloyd is delightful as the Edsel-minded professor. Lea fAII the Right Moves> Thompson, _ Crispin (Fridav the 13th. the Fin^f Chapter^ Qtover, and Wendy Jo Sperber all put in warm performances as Fox's wino mother, wimpy father and gorgeous girlfriend, respectively. Directed by Robert momancina tha S t o n e d Zemechis with executive producer Steven Spielberg, Back to tha Future has been an enormous financial success to date, grossing over $150 million. Back to the Future is one of those movies that you can see over and over again wihtout getting tired of it, which Is probably the best review you can give to a film. Back to the Future Is now playing at the Roxy Theater on Main Street in town Michael J.
