WMXWMM9XWW Parsons Union Building Lock Haven University Lock Haven, Pennsylvania 17745 Volume 31 D No. 2 D 4 pages Friday, September 7, 1984 s e c says no to athletic insurance request s e c President Gary Interdonato presides over the first senate meeting of the semester Wednesday night, photo by Tim Sporcic By Kim Wiiidnson Obtaining insurance coverage on the fleld will be a problem for athletes with University insurance, after the Student Cooperative Council (SCC) decision on Wednesday night to not give financial aid for the first insurance payment due September IS. Support for the monetary request of $905 was led by Senator Kevin Choate. "If we could help, it would be appreciated. I'm not saying we foot the whole bill," said Choate. "If you want winning teams here, this is the price you have to pay." Danette Bixler, SCC corresponding secretary, said, "If we're going to pay for insurance for 400 athletes, we should pay for every student." She added, "If they can't afford to pay their insurance policy, they shouldn't get on the field." Gary Interdonato, SCC president said that the SCC is not liable for athletes just because it funds athletics. He said the SCC could afford the first payment, but not the entire cost of SS360 in addition to the budgetted $4500 for insurance. The SCC pledged $9000 to a proposed symposiuim entitled "Central America: Today and Tomorrow." The idea was presented to the senate by Juan Manuel Soaje, representing the International Club. He announced that he has received a positive response to attend from special guest Alexander Haig, former U.S. Secretary of State and 14 ambassadors from Central American countries. The entire project is estimated to cost $26,000. There was some debate as to how much money the SCC should contribute. Choate reminded the senate that money has been lost on past concerts and he felt that the SCC should spend money on something of this nature. The SCC voted unanimously against the Community Center fee. The fee was originally $10 and was used to pay for the Parsons Union Building (PUB). Once the building was paid for, the fee was lowered to $2.50. The suggestion to raise the fee was discussed, in order to buy new equipment for the campus. The summer canoe sale was discussed. Ralph Ball, senator, asked Interdonato how the event was publicized. He said signs were posted in every building. He added, "I guess it's like someone said in the newspaper, 'You had to be in the right place at the right time.'" The Rosimillia vending contract was brought up. David Cox, administrator of the SCC said, "The contract is really in our favor." The contract is for five years. During that time, all vending machines on campus will be replaced, at a cost of $182,000. In other business, Bob Cochrane was reappointed as SCC treasurer. Scott Riesle was appointed as parlimentarian and Debbi Ikehara will replace recording secretary, Beth Eayre. Professor upset with Interdonato By Jay Zech "I am extremely disappointed that a person who is president of the SCC and a law enforcement officer does not keep his word," said Dr. Douglas Campbell of Gary Interdonato. Campbell was referring to the sale of canoes by the SCC prior to the time he had the canoes reserved for use by his group the Elderhostel. Campbell is coordinator for Elderhostel, a group of senior citizens that take courses here^luring the summer. He had planned to use the SCC canoes with his group on July 16, 17, and 18 of this year. But on May 24 the SCC sold the canoes, by sealed bids, to students and received bet- ween 125 and 160 dollars per canoe. Interdonato said, "After we (the executive committee) decided to sell the canoes I tried to call Dr. Campbell. I couldn't get a hold of him. After that I tried maybe 2 other times and still couldn't get a hold of him." Campbell said he was in his office by 7:30 each morning that Interdonato claimed he tried to telephone. "Why didn't Interdonato leave a message with my secretary who was there all day, five days a week," said Campbell. According to Campbell, Elderhostel was not given an opportunity to purchase the canoes and had to rent them for "hundreds of dollars from the Boy Scouts." Interdonato said "that if Elderhostel would have come forward and said that it is gonna cost X amount of dollars to rent, the executive council would have pulled some money from the contigency fund and helped offset some of the cost." Yet Campbell said that Interdonato never made such an offer. "I never received so much as a simple apology," said Campbell. "All I got from Interdonato was a memo in which he attempted to defend his failure to keep his promise." Campbell concluded with, "The thing that bothers me the most is the casual way that Interdonato ignored his commitment to Elderhostel. I hope that he shows more respect to the students who elected him."

Only 60 attend coffeehouse Mike Blender With hopes of showing students the newly renovated lower level of the Parsons Union Building (PUB), the Student Cooperative Council (SCC) sponsored a coffee house Tuesday night to greet students and get their response to the finished project. Although only less than sixty people showed up, SCC administrators showed favorable response to the turnout. Among the activities at the coffee house were guitar music provided by PUB administrator Todd Baney, free food, and gifts that were raffled off. There was no charge for the event. "I don't understand why people don't take advantage of it," said SCC president Gary Interdonato, referring to the turnout. Among the gifts that were given away were mugs, food, an LHU sweatshirt, along with Jefferson Starship T-shirts and concert tickets. Interdonato joked about the small crowd saying, "Everyone should get a prize at this rate." "Oh well," commented another SCC officer when he saw the small amount of people. The SCC was expecting at least 100 people to attend. According to Interdonato, the SCC spent $2500 to have two rooms renovated in the lower level of the PUB, while the University contributed "about $7000" for new furniture. SCC Vice President Kevin Keenen said that one of the main ideas for the coffee house was to get the students involved and became familiar with the people of the SCC. Keenan also commented that despite the lack of interest among students on Tuesday night other coffee houses will be sponsored if performers can be found. 2 D Eagle Eye D Friday, September 7, 1984 Low turnout again Poor attendance at Tuesday nigtit's Student Cooperative Council (SCC) sponsored coffeehouse proved that either the student body doesn't care for guitar music, free food, clothing, and concert tickets or that they simply didn't know that the event has moved downstairs from the Parsons Union Building (PUB) Snackbar to the recently renovated Coffee House on the lower level of the PUB. The SCC event attracted only approximately sixty students despite the fact that there was no Tuesday Night Football on the tube and not much to study for since classes had just started on Tuesday.leaving many books still in the store to be bought. Considering that Tuesday evening isn't one of the "party nights" at LHU, one has to wonder where everyone was. It could have been that roommates were spending time getting acquainted, but It's more likely they were watching a re-run of some TV show they've seen before. Students that did show up for the coffeehouse received free mugs, food, clothing, and concert tickets. They also had a chance to see the new look on the lower level of the PUB. The SCC spent $2500 to renovate two rooms and the University contributed about $7000 for new furniture. The Eagle's Nest Lounge Is equipped with several comfortable blue sofas and a TV. The Coffee House has tables and chairs available for meetings or coffeehouses. The coffeehouse was only one of many events which are Intended to get students involved in campus life. On Sunday Jefferson Starship will land in Lock Haven for a big concert. If music isn't your game, there Is always the home openers for both the football and soccer teams tomorrow. There's a lot going on out there, so let's get Involved.

LOST AND FOUND DRIVER LICENSE at Revco Susan Sleil RD 2 Box 67 Gillett, PA 16925 Friday, September 7, 1984 D Eagle Eye D 3 Gridders ready for Lycoming tomorrow By Dave Walters Sports Editor A big crowd is expected tomorrow at Jacic Stadium as head coach Jacl( Fisher and the Loclc Haven University (LHU) football squad maice their 1984 season debut against Lycoming College. Kiclcoff is set for 2 p.m. Coach Fisher is confident about tomorrow's game. "Our chances are good against Lycoming as long as we can stay healthy," Fisher said. The Bald Eagles will be led by four captains. They will be definsive end Scott . Gantz, All-Conference middle guard Chris Kustanbauter, guard Chris Jaclcson and taclcle John Eisenhooth. "These men exhibit great leadership for this team," Fisher said. The offensive baclcfield will consist of tailbacic Jon Peters, powerback Ricic Myers, fullback Roosevelt Brown, and quarterback Doug Williams. Except for Williams, none of the backfield firstteamers have ever started a varsity game. "We don't have any superstars, so the team doesn't have to depend on one guy," Fisher said. Other offensive starters include tight end Brian Stugarts, tackle Todd Johnson, guard Jimmy McEachern, center Bob Hoffman, and wide receiver Brad Bauserman. Defensively, Fisher has nine starter returning to form a good nucleus. Other than Gantz and Kustanbauter, starters include end Todd Ritter, tackles Brian Smith and Dave Shriver, and linebackers Billy Peterson and Stanley Allen. Allen Urich, Jeff Swanson, Tom McNally, and Jere Warner make up a veteran secondary. Co-captains Jackson says that the team is ready for Lyco. "The team is excited for the game. We're ready. People can be assured that the outcome won't be the same as last year," the junior guard said. Fisher's gridders face a demanding schedule starting tomorrow and ending with the University of Buffalo. "I'm not going to look ahead. I'm going to take it one day at a time," Fisher said. Bald Eagle leaders - Gantz (82), Jackson (63), Eisenhooth (78) and Kustanbauter (71). Long returns to alma mater as new soccer coach Mark Mahoney Most of you have heard that there is a new man at the controls of the 1984 Bald Eagle Soccer team. But, who is he? He is Lenny Long, and he is not such a new face aroung here. Long was a midfielder with the Bald Eagles from 1971-74. He graduated in 1975 with a degree in HPER. Two years (and a masters degree from Trenton (NJ) State) later. Long returned to Lock Have as Mike Parker's assistant coach for a year. In 1978, at age 24, Long got his first opportunity to be a head coach. Virginia Wesleyan, a small (800 students) private Liberal Arts school, was his first challenge. "It was a tremendous place to get started," says Long of Wesleyan, where he also coached the tennis team. His wife, Maribeth, served as head of career planning and placement at Wesleyan. In six years at Wesleyan, Long compiled a record of 51-41-12, including 24-11-2 over the past two years. Long has showed good recruiting with the improvement of the team. He says that being 12 miles from Virginia Beach helped recruiting. Now, in 1984, Long steps into a job with a tradition of excellence. When asked about the pressure of replacing Parker, Long said, "It's inevitable for there to be some kind of pressure, but I look at it as a challenge." A challenge is exactly what Long has on his hands. Six of last year's starters are gone, and there aree 17 freshmen and sophomores on the team. Long talks a lot about getting the chemistry of the team together, important for any team, but especially important for a team with so many new faces. After the chemistry is there. Long says "We're going to be a pretty good side." Long wants to bring some new ideas to the soccer program here. For one, there will be youth soccer games preceding Saturday home games. The team will also have clinics for area kids. There are plans for a tournament next year, also. These are just a few of the changes to be brought about by Long. Surely, there will be more. We wish him luck. Derr leads field hockey to win over Lafayette By Christa Landas The Lady Bald Eagles field hockey team goes to 1-0 with a 2-1 win over Lafayette. Nine minutes into the first half Ginny Neiss assisted Sherry Derr to her first goal of the game. At the 26:02 point in the match. Heather Campbell of Lafayette scored. But Sherry Derr came back one minute later with another goal to give LHU the win. The second half of the contest was scoreless. Kate Murphy of Lock Haven had 14 saves at the goalie position, while Kathy Christiensen of Lafayette stopped 12 shots at the net. The Bald Eagles led Lafayette in shots taken by a margin of 22-18. In the penalty corner stats, Lafayette held a substantial 6-1 edge over the Haven. Next action for the Lady Bald Eagles is against New Hampshire on Saturday and then against Springfield Sunday. Both are road trips for Lock Haven. Lenny Long, new soccer coach here at the University, encourages his charges during a recent practice. The head coach graduated from Lock Haven in 1975 and will try to continue the winning soccer tradition here at LHU photo by Tim Sporcic Cross country teams fall in opening meet at Slippery Rock The University's men and women cross country teams found the going tough as theyjourneyed to Slippery Rock for a season-opening meet last Saturday. The men harriers of coach Jim Dolan fell to the Rock by a 17-42 score and their women counterparts were shut out 15-50. The lady runners are coached by a veteran Leroy Straley. Bald Eagle Mike Eidenshink finished fourth in the men's meet, covering the trail in 28:42. Bud Murphy was seventh (29:12), Dave Perry was eighth (29:14), and Frank Passaniti crossed the finish line in 30:02 for and eleventh place finish. There «'!>« no reason we could not have been competitive with The Rock, but our men just weren't mentally tough," Dolan said. "I'm dissappointed, but we'll try again next Saturday." Betsy Potter was the top Lady Eagle runner with an eighth place finish of 22:31. Pam Noll was tenth with a 23:20 while Lisa Sagan covered the course in 25 minutes, good for 12th place. Straley noted that the women's team is relatively young, but has talent. "There's a lot of potential to be tapped and plenty of time to realize that potential," Straley said. Tomorrow, both teams will compete in the Lebanon Valley Invitational at Annville. 4 D '^"8'e Eye D Friday, Septeinber 7, 1984 Professor Cox studies in Soviet Union again Kenneth Cooper For the second straight year. Dr. Kenneth M, Cox, Professor in the College of Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Athletics here at the University, has studied in the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR). The Lock Haven professor was oneof 15 American educators whb participated on a recent Citizen Exchange study/travel to the USSR in June, 1984. Dr. Cox participated in seminars and conferences on "comparative education" at the Moscow Lenin State Pedagogical Institute, Moscow State University and the House of Friendship Society in the Soviet capital. In addition. Cox visited schools in Pskov and attended a seminar and colloquia at both the Leningrad Institute of Physical Education and Sport and the House of Friendship Society in the nation's second largest city. In June, 1983, Cox also participated in postdoctoral study under the auspices of the Department of Comparative Physical Education, Montreal, Canada, at the world renown Federal Institute of Physical Education and Sport in Moscow. One of 48 North American educators selected to attend the Federal Institute, Dr. Cox researched " A Comparative Analysis of Sport as an Academic Discipline in the USA and USSR." During the past study/travel. Cox researched the "New School Reform Bill" in the USSR. This new five-year reform in education will be officially instituted into the Soviet educational system beginning next school term. In Leningrad, Dr. Cox also discussed his postdoctoral research, " A Comparative Analysis of Instructional Strategies in Teaching Complex Gross Motor Skills in the USA and USSR." This study is under the auspices of the Center for the Study of Socialist Education at the University of Virginia. A nationally recognized authority on Soviet combatives (boxing, judo and wrestling) and wrestling techniques, when asked why he was interested in the Soviet educational system. Cox stated that, "the Soviet system has always intriqued me. I especially became interested while on active duty in the U.S. Army, when I studied their logistics system." He continued that, "the best way to learn their system is to actually go there and study it." In preparation for his study in the USSR, Dr. Cox literally spent hundreds of hours studying both the Soviet educational and political system. "My ultimate goal is to be selected as a Fulbright Scholar and spend a semester or year studying in the USSR," continued Dr. Cox. "Also, without a doubt, one of the best ways to improve the deteriorating relations between our great nation and the Soviet Union is through the medium of educational and sport exchange. Sport is very unique inasmuch as a person can actually communicate wrestling and judo technique on the mats with top Soviet coaches without ever verbalizing. The medium of sport serves as a common denominator among all people. It makes many opportunities available to me in the USSR which might otherwise not be open. Communication either verbal or written and the exchange of ideas must remain paramount between these two world super-powers," concluded Dr. Cox. EDITOR'S NOTE: Dr. Kenneth M. Cox is a professor in the Department of Health Science, and is credited with initiating club boxing at Lock Haven in 1979.
