Lock Haven State College, Eas Sept. 15,1976 Eve ^^'^^ ^ ^ ^ V o l . XIX No. 6 GS major now available By TINA BROOKS Staff Reporter A major in General Studies has been approved for Lock Haven State College and the program has ten students enrolled this semester according to Dr. Hugh Williamson, Dean of the School of Arts and Sciences. Final approval for the General Studies Program came from Pennsylvania Secretary of Education, John C. Pittenger in July. Late last spring the program was approved by all campus review boards. A limit of 20 students are allowed to be admitted into the program for the first year. All students presently in the program are upperclassmen. In the fall of 1977,fi-eshmenwill be able to enter college as a General Studies major. Dr. Williamson describes the major as "a very openended interdisciplinary option". As part ofthe program a student has to complete the 60 semester hour general education requirements, which is mandatory for any LSH student. The remaining 68 semester hours needed for graduation are used for courses, internships, independent studies, etc. that meet the educational needs and career objectives of the individual student. The General Studies major is offered as either a Bachelor of Science or a Bachelor of Arts Program. If a student wishes to take it as a BA program he must also fulfill the liberal arts seminar and foreign language rfequirements. Mainly, the General Studies program is aimed at the non-traditional student. Dr. Williamson defined the nontraditional student as a student who has a very high degree of self-direction, a student whose educational experience may be extended over a long period of time or a student whose vocational objectives are not fitted by any exisring program. "Now enrolled in the program," stated Dr. Williamson, "is a girl who is interested in doing graduate work and research in physiology of physical education and related matters". She will be a scientist but the area of application will be physical education. She will be a scientist but the area of application will be physical education. She needs work in both science and phys. ed." When a student applies for the program he is asked to identify his unique vocational and intellectual objectives. Before registering each semester the student who is admitted tc the program must submit a credit proposal and he must indicate his particular objectives for that semester. The students proposal is reviewed by the General Studies Review Board and the Dean of the School of Arts and Sciences. If the students' proposal is not approved the review board and the Dean will work in conjunction with the student to develop an acceptable proposal. Members of the General Studies Review Board are: Dr. Arden Holland, School of Education, Dr. Dora Vandine, School of Health, Physical Education and Recreation; Dr. Paul Klens, Natural and Mathematical Science; Prof. John Johnston, Social Science and Prof. May Ireland, Humanities. Mr. Robert Bravard, Director of Library Services, is an ex-officer member of the conf. on page 1 FSO test date arranged By DEB KERNER Staff Reporter Foreign Service Opportunities will be offered again this year to students of Lock Haven State College.

At present there are several pieces of legislation which we are interested. One is House Bill 1833. the "Capital Appropriations Bill." This bill would provide state funds for new construction and needed repairs and improvemfents at all state facilities. Lock Haven would recieve money for lighting Sloan Theatre, renovating Thomas Fieldhouse and for purchasing new land for future use. Another bill is Senate Bill 224, the "Commonwealth University Act." This bill would combine all of the state colleges into a university system, simalar to the Suny system now operating in New York. However, this bill seems to be stalled at the moment, with now action likely to be taken this year. In the past we have supported the "Post Card Registration Bill," which now allows voters to register by mail, and the ill-fated 19 year old drinking bill. We are investigating the possibility of operating a cut-rate travel program for our members, and are looking into other servces we could possibly provide. At any rate, this is what we are doing now. Is this what you want us to be doing? conf, on page 4 Letters to the Editor Mimis^ draw lepiBS To the Editor: To the Students of LHSC: The students of LHSC are faced with the same problem that has faced mankind from the very beginning of time; that problem is "APATHY." Most students don't really care what happens in a lot of situations because they are not directly involved. Some have had no problems returning books, cashing checks, or trying to drop a course-so they are notreally concerned about a fellow student who has run into this problem. It is time though for all students to make a decision, either "for" or "against" some of these situations. Get involved! Get the Facts! Find out how a problem may affect you in the future as it presently affects your fellow student. Get your Senators and Representatives to form some committees to look into these student's problems, but you've got to help don't just page 2 EAGLE EYE Wed.

Besides, anyone who doesn't sine his name is one step lower than a wimp-assed faggot. As for Wampole's letter, was so bad it wans't even worth reeding.

Fuzzy Hellnva Band — by Angel Here is the next Led Zepplin and the way Led Zep's been going it seems they want to give their title away. Their last LP, Prescence was good enough to laugh at. Jimmy Page and Robert Plant might think that one can moan for singing and then the other play a quick guitar riff then back to the moaning to capture an audience. How wrong they are!! The masses are not that much asses. By just looking at the members of Angel you would swear, "oh, just another British band." But wait, names like Mickey Jones, Punky Meadows, Frank Dimino can't be all that bad. They must be Americans. Yep, and Americans who want to give us music to be proud of. These guys are so good that they could back up the Stones, Zep and Floyd and still have the crowd going crazy over them. Their music is not all studio like Queen and Kiss. Kiss makes up for this in their act even> though the music is overiy distorted. In Angel there is Barry Brandt on drums and Mickey Jones as the bassist. Greg Giuffraia plays organ, piano, clarinet, harpsichord, mellotran, string ensemble, and all synthesizers. (I can't wait to see what new instruments he picks up for the next LP.) Punky Meadows in on guitars and Frank Dimino takes care of the vocals. The album. Helluva Band is the Angel's second. The first song, "Feeling Right" starts out with some good synthesizer. It's difinetly a good mood opener. Punky plays some amazing lead guitar series and then the synthesizer comes in to play the same series. They both take turns showing off for a few minutes then both instruments entwine which makes it hard to figure out which instrument is which. The second song, "Fortune" starts out with synthesizer but at a much slower speed also there is church singing eavesdropping in the background. The song ends with a wild barrage of synthesizers attacking the songs. The third song is "Anyway You Want It" which is a good rock and roll dance number. It holds the same beat and doesn't change style. Not much synthesizer here. The last song on side one is "Dr. Ice" which clearly shows the style of Frank Dimino singing. Many times he extends his notes and keeps them floating with the synthesizer. The second side starts with a song, "Mirrors" which is conf. on page 4 ] IS sU/i\ IS liiorth lot L off dhj^ purch^sff.

Sept. 15,1976 Olnick on sports A few weeks ago, I wrote a baseball column with my predictions for teams making the playoffs and the World Series, and also some individual awards, but it looks like I'll have to throw that adumn away and write this one instead. So much has happened lately, showing that baseball, as well as any spwt, is unpredictable at b ^ . The most surprising episode, as any baseball fan is aware, is the sudden collapse of the Philadelphia Phillies, coupled with resurgence by the Pittsburgh Pirates. Nfost people had die Phillies locked into die first place position, with a 13 game lead only two and one half weeks ago. That lead has now shrunk to five and one half games, and is in danger of shrinking even faster before the season is over. My personal prediction is diat die Phillies will still win the National League East, due to die fact tiiat tiie Pirates cannot keep expecting the excellent pitching they have received lately, and the Phillies cannot expect to stay in their hitting slun^ much longer. Sooner of later, these Phillie bats will start cranking again, and the Lumber Company will be fading back. Tbe Reds ought to win tiie NL West, and tiie Yankees will win die AL East. The AL West is more interesting, because Kansas City's injury-riddled pitching staff is barely able to keep the team treading water fiom a stixjng Oakland challenge. Much of Oakland's challenge will depend on a suit page. EAGLEEYE filed by A's owner Charlie Fuiley in court to free him in selling three of his star players pitcher Vida Blue to tiie Yankees, along with pitcher RoUie Fmgers is successfull in his suit, Oakland will lose those three players for money, but no players-thus killing off the A's chances for this season. Hopefiilly, tiie decision will not be rendered until after the season is over-thus giving die Oakland team a chance to win their division this year. Because of all their troubles, I tiiink Oakland will fall short and Kansas City will end up on top in the American League West. Going out on a real limb now, 1 will predict tiie Yankees over Kansas City in the cont. on page 4 Fishing tourney yields 9th place honors for LH By DOUG GRIETZ Staff Reporter For the third consecuiive year Lock Haven State was among twelve (six American and six Canadian) teams entered in the 20 annual bitemational University Sports Fishing Seminar and Competition.

"We have the best team we have had for a long time at the Haven," commented Captain Lou Fiorillo, "and with some improvement we should be very tough for anyone to beat by the end of the season." The Bald Eagles Womens' cross-country team tied the Rock 28-28 in their meet. Lock Haven's Carroll Myers placed a fine second. Western Ontario, Harvard University. Dalhousee Univei sity.
