Gloria Naylor will visit LHU's campus on March 30 as a guest speaker. Martin discussed the most famous novels of Naylor, "The Women of Brewster Place" and "Lindon Hills." Martin's primary goal was to talk about five novels, but unfortunately, time did not permit her to do so. Using her extensive familiarity of Naylor's works and her "strange" (as she explained) sense of humor, Martin talked about female characters of the novels, exposing their fears, fantasies, selfishness, spirituality, and love. Exemplifying the essence which is associated with African American history and Women's history, Dr. Harriet Masembe brings to Lock Haven University a sense of pride which cannot be Masembe, a native of Uganda, Africa and a professor in the English department, has been a part of Lock Haven University since 1990.

According to her first year professional evaluation from the department of English, Journalism, and Philosophy, Dr. Carol Potter said, "Dr. Masembe is an excellent teacher and a fine asset for the department and the University." The praise continued through the years with Masembe continually receiving evaluations from students which commended her attitude toward students, fairness in grading policies, effective communication and strong story-telling, ability to encour- age questions and discussions, and interest and enthusiasm in teaching the course and her sense of humor.

Did Abraham Lincoln really walk five miles to school each day? Don't believe everything you hear about our founding fathers says LHU history professor Dr. Alan Golden. The third Monday in February the 21st, has traditionally been the day set aside as a day to honor all U.S. Presidents. In particular, this holiday recognizes the birthdays of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. Since the 18th century, the myths surrounding George Washington have been learned by school children across the country. However to many scholars, these myths remain the object of much debate, According to Golden. The most common myths about our first president include the story of how he chopped down a cherry tree, and of how he threw a silver dollar across the Potomac River. According to Golden, these myths were the result of a bibliwritten about ography Washington by "Parson" Weems. Golden adds that it was the truth to his father, shows his virtues of honesty and trustworthiness. As for the myth that Washington threw a silver dollar common practice in the 18th Golden comments, was told to show him as a man of strength and great power. "In fact," across the Potomac River, this, Golden adds, "they did not even have silver dollars in colonial times." As for our 16th president, Abraham Lincoln, Golden says, there is no conclusive evidence that he had to walk excessive century for presidential hopefuls to have super-human stories about themselves circulating to promote their virtuous qualities. Golden says the myth about Washington chopping down a cherry tree and then admitting miles to school each day, and then come home and learn to read by candlelight. "Parts of this myth may be true to and extent, but again this story has been told to show the president as a man of great virtues," notes Golden. Golden says that the virtues learned through these myths were qualities all men wanted to be known for. These myths provided children with heroes and positive role models, while allowing the President to remain superior in the eyes of his country.

As the nine justices end a month-long winter break, an extraordinary term of arguments and opinions is taking shape. For the next four months, they will delve into a litany of emotionally charged matters with important implications for the daily lives of Americans. The cases include challenges so-called "partial birth abortion" laws and a dispute over whether patients can sue HMOs under federal law, as well as whether a student can pray over loudspeakers before a football game, whether police must still read suspects Miranda warnings or whether the Boy Scouts can exclude homosexuals as troop leaders. And the justices will be producing decisions on other hotbutton matters they took up earlier in the term, which began last October, including grandparents' rights, federal regulation of tobacco, nude dancing, federal to aid to religious schools and limits on adult programming on cable television. What's more, beyond the dramatic, real-world issues, the court is developing refining theories on Congress' power in relation to that of the states. It has several cases that grandparent's right to seek visitation and a woman's right to the disputed abortion procedure.

MIDDLETOWN, (TMS) Officials at Wesleyan University have persuaded a junior there to drop his plans to produce a film showing students having sex.

Brown's flier also stated that the film was designed to "high - light the tension and misconception between the genders." Wesleyan's president, Douglas J.

He hopes to get the student newspaper to poll students' feelings about his proposed work. If people on campus endorse his vision or at least don't object to it, he said he may revive his filming.

I've been known to give people second chances and sometimes even third and fourth. It takes a lot of disrespect for me and what I believe in order for me to want to completely cut ties with a person. No, I'm not talking about guys because he's one of the best. And no. I'm not talking about my friends because they arc wonderful. So, who am I talking about? Landlords. This article is essential to anyone who is thinking about moving off campus. There are people out there who will try to take advantage of you because you are young and naive when it comes to such things as renting homes. Don't get me wrong, I see my landlord at least once a month. Ok, so I only sec him when he comes to pick up the rent check or when he decides to come into the house unan- nounced early in the mornings when he thinks no one is home during Christmas Break. You are undoubtedly going have problems when you move off campus. There arc going to be circumstances that you to arc going to encounter that you will need the help of your landlord to fix. For example, the toilet my leak from the upstairs bathroom into the living room or it may just explode on regular basis. Sometimes, the water heater may explode too, forcing you to turn off your water and the heat for an extended period of time. And on a good day your kitchen may reach a temperature where you can no longer see your breath. So who do you turn to in situations like these. Well, it's supposed to be your landlord. But often full of empty promises they have no intention of keeping. The only time he comes around to help is after every person in your house has called four or five times and you threaten to call the zoning committee in trust me, some are town. And when your electric bill reaches over $400 in the same month (this includes electricheat) in which the window pane is broken and the water heater breaks, don't even think of questioning him on it because his response may just be: "If they don't like it, they can move out." My advice to you is this: Before you sign the lease, ask the current tenants questions about the house. You are the one who is going be living there for the next year and you have every right to know how the house is maintained and you should be aware of what to expect after you sign the lease. to So, as a favor to all the prospective renters here are a few questions I came up with for you to ask the people who live there. And don't do it in front of the landlord. 1) How much has your highest electric bill been? (Mine has been $463.50!) 2) Have you ever had any recurring problems with the house? (Our bathroom is constantly leaking through our living room ceiling and we haven't had our heat reach over 60 degrees in any room downstairs because the windows are so shabby and although he promises to replace them, it hasn't been done.) 3) How efficient are his handyman? (Ours, uses a rope to hold his pants up. You want to talk about plumber's crack, just watch him. I don't know if he's drunk or high, but he's never sober when he comes. Plus, we're just lucky if they show up!) 4) Will the cock roaches eat my food? (In a friend's house, the kitchen is so infested they can't cook...which is the only reason why Bentley is still visited by upper-classmen.) 5) Do you know what your landlord looks like and when was the last time he came by? (Another editor here said that he lived in a house for a year and never even saw his landlord once, regardless of the fact that his floor caved in.) 6) Does your landlord spend more time at The Eagle than he does anywhere else? (No one wants their rent checks going to (Many times, landlords will let themselves in having a key? whenever they feel like it, whether your dressed or not!) Basically, there are millions of questions you need to ask when you are trying to find a place to call home for the next couple of months or maybe even years. Slumlords are out there and the only way to find out if your potential renter is one, is to ask the people whoknow first hand. But do keep in mind, people change and situations change. However, heed their warnings because as we know, history is doomed to repeat itself. So, when you see the for rent sign, before you even call , stop in and find out what the place is Megatouch.) 7) Will he take advantage of really like.

Week after week there are articles published in the school newspaper stating all the bad things that happen as a result ofbeing part of these organizations, which in turn makes it hard for our community to survive. This past week an article was printed about a sorority (which is not on this campus) who was suspended for hazing. What exactly does that have to do with Lock Haven University of Pennsylvania? Nothing. Although these articles are small they are effective in making people think that all we do is drink, have parties, and do a little hazing in our spare time. Did you all know that Sigma Kappa sorority goes to Susqueview and visits with the residents? Did you know that Tri Sigma sorority has an annual party with Big brothers/Big Sisters and has been nationally recognized for supporting play therapy for children with Polio?

You forget there are four food groups. You start to believe there's no such thing as a maximum speed limit. Lifting that six-pack suffices as exercise and worshipping the porcelain god becomes a weekend ritual. And the recommended eight hours of sleep'.' Doh. Face it. you haven't exactly become America's healthiest. But no worries, a new course of self-help is here at the brink of a new century filled with promise. Because your body is somewhat useful and may be necessary in the future, the following lessons have been compiled as a guide to. er. sort of take care of that stunning body and sexy mind of yours. This collection of shortcuts and ways to bend the rules with- out breaking them is the result of random research and the experience of trusted local experts. May these efforts renew your health and psyche. (Or, at least, to your pre-hangover resilience.) Think of them as New Year's resolutions if you must. Sorry, like your school's advisors, the recommendations given are not guaranteed to satisfy every customer. Lesson 1: Hate to bust that all-knowing bubble of wisdom, but ethanol is not one ofthe food groups. It will not build a dazzling smile or rejuvenate that cranial muscle. So, to keep the engine purring, give instant shakes a try. A 10-ounce can of just 200 calories packs in the equivalent of a regular meal: carbs. protein, all the good stuff in one. Might as well keep up with the age of mergers and acquisitions, right? There are at least three popular choices to choose from: Slim-Fast, Success and Boost. They vary slightly in minerals and should average about five bucks for a six-pack. They last through at least two classes and won't make you pec half as much as coffee or the other kind of six-packs. Lesson 2: Learn the skill of power-napping. But, urn, try not to do it during class. Those who have hung around the campus the longest know what it entails. The trick to maintaining sanity, newbics, is over there beneath that tree. See? And over there, that limp body draped over the couch in the student lounge? And that lump beneath the jacket in the couch in the bathroom? liven that curled up ball of matter passed out on the grass in the courtyard? They're not dead-just smart cats grabbing a little shuteye.Other public places that have been known to double as a bed: the campus shuttle (if you can ignore the swerving and the abrupt stops of hapless drivers); video-rooms at the library (where you can easily lower the volume to nil): the bench at the bus stop (if you've acquired the ability to nap upright); empty classrooms (as long as you know when to leave): and finally, even the cafeteria. (Just try not to drool.(However you can squeeze in the sleep, get it. It's cheaper than that cup of cappuccino. Lesson 3: Stay active, and that isn't in reference to scoring on the first date. Whether staying in shape or still trying to shed the Freshmen Fifteen, you'll do wonders for your psyche by exercising. Your stress level will drop faster than your grade-point average ever will. Promise usual walkinstead-of-drive and take-thelong-way method. But, if there's no time to hit the jogging trails or visit the gym. here's another way to increase the heart rale. Ready? Set? Clean! Yes. clean, Sure, there's the defined as an adjective by Webster's Dictionary as "free of dirt, germs, impurities, etc." The verb form meaning to make clean. Really, no joke. Going all out on cleaning up your college crib scrubbing the blinds, vacuuming, ironing, organizing-will make you sweat. As funny as it sounds, cleaning will do your body good (almost better than milk), make your mama proud, and might prevent your (cleaner?) roommate from plotting your demise. Hey macho men, this lesson applies to you, too, if not in particular. Lesson 4: The idea of making the speed limit of Interstate highways 85 mph is ONLY AN IDEA and has not been legalized. Camouflage the bike helmet if that's what it takes. Do not assume all motorists stop for pedestrians. Laugh in the face of danger if you will, but try not to laugh too hard, OK? While there is no trick to bypassing the cops as you zip from point A to point B within the city, there is hope for those who occasionally drive out-of-town. A common observation is that cops don't venture too far from the city. Meaning, if you must put the pedal to the metal (though it's not encouraged), do so out in the boonies. And don't be too confident with those racial detectors because cops have radar-detector detectors. And finally, lesson 5: Accept the fact that you're getting older and "mental notes'' cannot be relied on. Unless you're the robotic department's top-secret pro- ject, realize that you'll probably not remember all 50 items on your to-do list. Having said that, introduce yourself to Post-it notes, perhaps the world's most perfect pets Apartments waive their resi dence fees; they can travel everywhere conveniently; they'll never abandon you; they'll help you ace your exams. Stick them on the fridge: Slap them orttO your planner. Post them on the bathroom mirror. They sit. stay, and even play dead. Their resurgence on campus has proven its effectiveness and popularity, so don't get left out on this one. Those little things will save your buns, especially when those birthdays roll around. There, it's not much, hut it's a beginning to a healthier life in college.

Tom Peske Eagle Eye Features Editor « "■ « « 3 z — ' (5 « By the time this paper is published, the Locker Room will have held its Playboy-sponsored, spring break party. As the campus representative for Playboy who set this event up, it has been interesting watching people's reaction to the whole idea. There doesn't seem to be a person on campus who hasn't heard of the magazine, although opinions widely varied. Generally, the name inspire a lustful gleam in the eyes of men and a sour look of disgust in women. There, is no doubt about the reason why Playboy causes such controversies, and it is not the articles. Since the first issue where Editor Hugh Hefner ran a picture ofMarilyn Monroe, Playboy has been noted for having beautiful, nude women. It is that idea that makes me wonder about our society today. Opponents of selling pictures of nudes are quick to point out that, besides being morally wrong from a religious stand point, pornography objectifies women. I don't think there is any doubt that when a man looks at a picture ofa naked woman, he is objectifying her. Very rarely will a man look at a centerfold and think, "Hey, I wonder if she shares the same hopes, fears and goals in life as I do?" But I begin to wonder the following two things from this: Will men ever actually change, and is it wrong for women to make a profit offof male desires? While 1 am sure the religious right and feminists will quickly answer yes to both, I am not quite so certain. Now, men certainly should treat women as equals in life, but there is no denying that sexually, men are very body-oriented in 0 their interests. It is biological for men to be attracted to women who are young and beautiful. Is it wrong for them to enjo) this deep-seated desire? A better question might be how long are we going to live in a society where pleasure is wrong? We close our eyes and pretend that sexual interest, lust if you will, is not out there. Truth is, lust is a powerful part of our everyday lives. It sells goods and motivates many of the decisions we make. As for the question of whether or not it is right for women to make a profit off of their body, I ask, is it not then body? If men are going to be lustful and objectify women naturally, why shouldn't women profit from it. Are we protecting women or are we allowing the same cycle of exploitation and abuse to continue? Women might be in a better position to control the industry if so many handicaps were not in their way. Because work related to sex has been kept underground, women have been exploited every which way. Perhaps if it was treated more like a business rather than a crime, women might be better protected and successful. I think the question really is why is it wrong for adults to enjoy life in a sexual fashion? I see this beyond just women posing for Playboy, but in life in general. It comes down to the right of people to enjoy life as they want to enjoy it. What is it about the human form that can turn rational, mature adults into blushing introverts? Perhaps it is just that loss of composure that frightens people so much. In the end, I can only hope people will come to enjo) the body more and more. If you are reading this now, just think.

Big mistake. The 30-year-old university student was wanted by police on suspicion of stealing some valuable baseball cards, and cops do watch television sometimes. When he saw Walentowski's name on the screen, investigator Alan Moore said, "I think we have a warrant for that guy." His arrest followed swiftly.

While girlfriend Gwyneth Paltrow was off at the Berlin film fest, Affleck was making the most ofValentine's Day by flirting up a storm at the New York premiere of "Boiler Room." The actor was overheard asking a British beauty, "Where does your accent come from?" "I was born with it," the Brit said. giggling. "Well, you have the most beautiful voice," Affleck said huskily.

Bob's attorney, David Aronson, called the legal action "a minor dispute" in an otherwise "amicable" split. Bob now lives in Virginia with their son. Bo, his new wife, Veronique, and a 1-year-old son. Sandy, we hear, has jettisoned snowboarder Steven Koch for a Chicago boyfriend. THE ART OF DIVORCE Bob Pittman is a winner again. The America Online president, whose fortunes skyrocketed on AOL/Time Warner merger news, just found out that his ex-wife. Sandy, has to give back a painting they once shared. Sandy had refused to turn over a work by Austrian figurative painter Siegfried Anzinger, even though she was required to do so under the couple's 1997 divorce deal. According to court papers, she argued that Pittman no longer had dibs on the canvas because he had "defaulted" on their pact. She claimed he had not paid her back for money she had expended on copying "certain photographs and videotapes" and had "only recently returned her personal property." But Manhattan Supreme Court Judge Marylin Diamond has ruled that, even if Sandy's charges are true, she doesn't have the right to "cancel their contract."

The mob in this flick is more of a caricature than anything else, although points could be granted for making this gang Hungarians rather than the stereotypical Italians. Since the script is so bland, the actors and actresses involved deserve some recognition for bringing their characters to life, especially since none of these roles seem one-dimensional on screen. Willis is highly believable as the cautiously friendly Tudeski, and his performance makes the unlikely friendship between his and Perry's character resonate. Perry, for one, has received some criticism in the press for taking roles that are strikingly similar. While he plays the same swarmy, bumbling character here, it actually fits this film, making his performance almost perfect. Kevin Pollak gives a hilariously understated turn as the head of the Hungarian mob, and 1 UHlN" Amanda Peet inhabits her role as a hitwomanin-training without visible effort. The only real disappointment in this cast is Natasha Henstridge, who as Tudeski's estranged wife, is flat and unemotional. If it's difficult to determine at this point whether or not " The Whole Nine Yards" is worth y our whole seven dollars, let me say this: It ain't "Pulp fiction," but it made for an enjoyable afternoon at the movies. True, it's typical Hollywood fluff, but it's pretty entertaining fluff. For something with a lack of revelation, it is surprisingly adept at being conventual.

Don't get me wrong, I won't complain for a second about the 50 degree temperatures this week. But something is definitely changing. Last year we blamed it all on "El Nino", but what do we blame "El Nino" on? I think we all know the answer: global warming. It's time to look at the "Big Picture" and think about ways we can try to ensure that we have a safe and healthy earth to live offof in the years to come. I'm handing my space over to a guest writer this week. Mauro Garcia dropped off this article in The Eagle Eye office at the beginning of the semester. It's definitely worth reading. Enjoy! Jill Nauman Lifestyles Editor is Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and the Meteorological Office of the United Kingdom reported 1999 as the hottest year since the records began in 1659. The long-term warming trend has not changed, and it is expected to continue to increase if actions are not taken. A serious problem that affects humans as a result of the greenhouse effect is that our planet is more vulnerable to environmental disasters: from catastrophic Hoods to severe droughts, excessive heat to extreme cold. In recent years, these disasters affected several countries around the world, killing thousands of people and causing losses of billions of dollars. Just in the United States, record-high temperatures have been registering in Chicago, Illinois and Washington, DC. since 1995. Droughts occurred in the Southern Plain in 1996. Severe floods affected the Ohio River, the Pacific Northwest and North Plains in 1997. Furthermore, scientists have We have already arrived at the year 2000, and does it really have any special significance? Yes, it does. Our planet is suffering the fastest climate changes ever experienced in all of history. This is evidence that we are approaching one of the most serious envi- established that Global Warming is causing other phenomena such as the spread of lethal viruses that in the past only occurred in tropical areas. Some examples are the outbreaks of malaria, dengue, cholera and the Nile virus that invaded New York City last summer. Significant alterations in the distribution of fresh water supplies, the productivity in agriculture, and the destruction of our ecosystems are among other consequences of the increasing concentrations of gases in our atmosphere. The most comprehensive study that found evidence linking Global Warming to these situations was the 1995 Intergov- ronmental problems that has been scientifically denominated, global warming. Despite its severe effect on human life,it is being underrated and overlooked. Global warming is the overheating of the earth's surface due to the high emission of gases that result from burning gas, oil and ernmental Panel on Climate coal: well-known as greenhouse Change (IPCC) report.

Because of this greenhouse The World Meteorological effect, all the gases arc trapped in Organization, the National the atmosphere, provoking the er.' Lesson learned weat earth's head patterns. The amount of carbon dioxide, between 190 and 280 parts per mil- lion, could only be found in the atmosphere 160,000 years ago, when the planet was a very different place than it is now. The overheating of the Earth's surface has caused the Polar Ice Cap to melt, which in turn caused the sea level to increase four to ten inches. It is believed that the sea level will continue to rise incrementally 95 inches in the next century, causing major destruction of coastal property. Scientists have pointed out that developed countries are mainly responsible for global warming. The massive global industrialization in this affluentenergy era, in addition to the uncontrolled deforestation of areas for agriculture, has increased greenhouse gas emissions signif- icantly. An inherent factor that greatly influences this problem is the overpopulation of the world. In 1900 we were 1 billion, today we are 6 billion. It is expected that by 2025 we will be 8 billion. In response to this serious environmental issue, environmentalists and the governments of developing countries have urged developed countries to take action to reduce their emissions of greenhouse gases. Unfortunately, global warming is usually in direct opposition to another very important factor in developed countries: economic growth. Dealing with global warming requires a reduction in the carbon dioxide emissions, but the intention of today's countries is to increase the production to meet the demands of the growing society. Certainly, the discussions have had to consider how to reduce pollution without disturbing the economy's growth. The first formal step taken to deal with global warming, after the United Nations Conference on Environmental Development in Rio de Janeiro in 1992, was a meeting in Kyoto, Japan in 1997. During this convention, environmentalists asked developed countries to reduce their amounts of greenhouse gas emissions. The United States, which has been the highest polluter with nearly a third of the world's output of carbon dioxide, pledged to reduce its emissions. However, since that time and despite the agreement, the United States' greenhouse gas emissions have increased in recent years. In a second effort to attack problem, last November environmental ministers from 178 countries called for a second meeting in Bonn, Germany to reach a final agreement to reduce the emissions of such gases. This time, governments from Cambodia, Vietnam, Bangladesh and many other developing countries fiercely complained about the recent floods India, and other environmental disasters that devastated their countries. On this occasion, the United States wanted the unlimited right to pay other developed countries to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. This action would cover the amounts that the world's highest polluter is required to reduce. However, it would relieve the U.S. of its obligation to help the environment. The chance to reach a final agreement was delayed again, because U.S. politicians said that the presidential elections will be in 2000 and environmental protection is hardly a vote grabber among the American electorate. The global warming issue has moved to the presidential agenda. However, despite all of the knowledge about this phe- Chris Fuller Outdoors Columnist It was the most important day of the year. The first Monday after Thanksgiving, the first day of Pennsylvania buck sea- son. The day had begun like most other first days. My alarm clock went off at approximately 4:30 a.m. and I was pretending to sleep; after all these years I still can't sleep the night before the first day. After three cups of coffee and a quick stop for breakfast, my two older brothers, Mike and Jimmy, and my father and I had arrived at our traditional to hunt, he offered me some coffee and hot soup. Sure enough, he came dragging a fat half-rack huck. The buck appeared just as I had pre- dicted: it stopped in the middle of the logging road where Mike got a clean shot. All he had to offer me was a hot cup of Joe and some old soup that his wife had prepared. Needless to say. I had an uneventful first day after that. This is not the first time that a situation like this has happened to me. My oldest brother, Jimmy, arrived at our Butler County home for a bow hunt in the first week of October. After shooting our bows and exchanging small talk, we decided to try our luck. Wc made a short drive to an area close to our house that I had been hunting hard all week. I knew that there were a lot of deer in the area, and even a few opening day location.

Where are we heading? It is now the core question in global warming's fate. So far, the scientific understandings and pre- dictions have been consistent with what has been happening during recent years. What we do today to deal with this problem will affect not only what kind of world we will face in a few years, but also what kind of world we will provide for our children and grandchildren. Mauro Garcia I gave my brother specific directions. I told him to walk down the logging road about 100 yards until he came to the biggest tree on the path. He was supposed to lean up against the watch the hillside in front of him for approaching deer. I also reminded him that deer would come from behind and they would stop before crossing the log road. This would be his first chance at identifying a buck and possibly getting a shot. It was now about twenty after seven, and three shots rang out from my brother's direction. The shots were so close that I could hear more shells being tree and tossed into the chamber. I read- ied myself for oncoming deer, but none ever showed. After a short wait, a blaze orange figure appeared walking up the trail at a very slow pace. I knew by the way he walked and by certain movements he made that it was indeed my brother At Jefferson, it's just a petri ish. Mike. After thanking me for hook- to get a shot. We found his arrow and in- spected the scene. Finding only minimal blood, we elected to take up the track at first light. At first light we were up the power line waiting to look for his deer. At his stand, we found more blood than we thought we would. After following a short blood trail, we came upon a nice ninepoint buck. Pictures were taken and the buck was cleaned, and we were home just in time for the eight o'clock SportsCenter. Can lightening strike twice in the same place? It was apparently so in this case. I guided both of my brothers to successful deer hunts. After all these years. I think that I have finally learned my lesson. I will always advise my brothers to hunt in a location where I am absolutely sure they will not see a damn thing.

Held, can attest to that theory after her showing at Cornell University's Robert Kane Invitational, where the men's and women's indoor track teams competed Saturday. The coaches were not expecting Held to compete at all due to knee troubles she was having prior to the meet, but she decided to jump into competition at the last minute. Held overcame the pain, clearing nine feet, 10 inches for a fifth place finish and shattered the pole vault record, for the third time this season. Her vault, which set the new school record by 10 inches, nearly missed the qualifying standard for the NCAA Division II National Indoor Championships of 10 feet, two inches. "She had three really strong attempts at 10 feet, four inches," said Assistant Coach Aaron Russell, "but couldn't uuite set that qualifying height." Held and the other vaulters have been doing what they can to train for their event, working with the ropes and doing underwater technique work in the pool. 0 I "We have to be creative because we don't have a pit to do some indoor vaulting," said Rus- sell. "Most of the other vaulters in the conference have the indoor facilities to practice in, while ours are forced to use the competitions on the weekend to practice vaulting." Also claiming school records for the women were both relay teams, both of which previously held the existing record, set earlier in the season. Freshmen Jen Farrow and Er- ica Aagre teamed with juniors Briana Winkler and Marsha Krysiewski to destroy their previous time in the 1,600-meter relay by nearly seven seconds. Their time of 4:11.67 put them in fifth place in the event. Also breaking their own previously set school mark, the 3.200-meterrelay team of Katie Olsen, Jessica Stoltzfus, Meghan Johnson and Katrina Brown edged iheik school record with a time of 10:24.12. good enough for fourth place. In the 55-meter dash, Farrow and Winkler took third and fourth-place finishes, respectively, with times of 7.56 and 7.57 seconds. The men's team did not come home with any school records this time but had some very notable performances. Sophomore Rob Mortensen stepped onto the track to run his first mile since last season. After trailing Pcnn State's Chris McGuinness for most of the race, Mortensen put on a strong push at the end in attempt to overtake the fatigued McGuinness. but came up short, finishing second with a time of 4:19.89. "I could see that he (McGuinness) was beginning to die," said Mortenscn. "If the race had just been 50 meters longer, I would have been able to beat him." Men's College D-I Basketball AP Poll As ofMonday, Feb. 21 McGuinness would also beat Bald Eagle Steve Moyer in the 3.000 meters. Moyer finished second with a time of 8:47.25. Junior Jonathan Chichilitti ran a personal best time of 6.65 in the 55-meter dash, missing the school record by just one hundredth of a second. Chichilitti also finished the 200 meters in fifth place with a time of 22.93, just missing his own school record that he set at Pcnn State a few weeks ago. "We had a lot of kids that were sick this week," said Russell. "In a way it's good because they usually wait until ECACs to get sick, so they'll get it all out of the way now." Both the men's and women's teams will travel to East Stroudsburg tomorrow for their final chance to qualify for the Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) Championships.

Bair cruised past Tommy Doerr, stopping the match at 4:38 with an 18-0 technical fall. LaValle kept the wins rolling when he won by major decision of 8:24.31. With the best finish of the day, the 400-yard freestyle relay of March, Maksinchuk, Lebo and Chernyl finished eighth with a time of 3:45.13. "We finished the season with a 6-7 record," said FentonCournoyer, "which is pretty good because we're such a small, young team." "We're looking strong for next year, returning 14 of our 15 girls next season. Recruiting is looking very strong as well, so our rebuilding phase is in progress."

Then there is the selection of sports and level of competition, which must accommodate the students' interests and abilities. Title IX covers a variety of other items as well, including and supplies, equipment scheduling of games and practice time, travel and per diem allowances, opportunity to receive academic tutoring, opportunity to receive coaching, assignment and compensations, locker rooms, practice and competitive facilities, medical and training facilities and services, housing and dining facilities and services, publicity, support services and recruitment of student-athletes. "I think the whole Title IX has turned into a proportionality issue, cutting male sports instead of adding female sports," said Lock Haven coach Carl Poff, who coached McMann this year. "I would welcome a woman's team here at Lock Haven or anywhere else." Wrestling now is one of the fastest growing women's sports. The trouble is, many females wrestle on male teams, which means that they have to compete with men at meets ifthey want to wrestle. Currently, only two states have high school sanc- tioned girl's wrestling - Hawaii and Texas. They hold a girl's year. "I would say it's the fastest rising women's sport," said Bailo. "The hype of the women's World Cup (soccer) team has helped that and all women's sports." "I found that it certainly isn't for everybody. The athletes that do it are dedicated," said Poll'. "There's a world championship for them and it's going to be an Olympic sport in 2004. The numbers are increasing at a rapid pace." Bailo is hoping his tournament can really give women's wrestling a boost. He is estimating around 500-600 total competitors and anywhere from 60100 at the college level. Schools such as New York University, American International in stale meet every "Interest follows opportunity, the other way around." said Bailo. "If you were to survey 100 not local high school girls about wrestling, you may get ten that were interested. If you changed it and made it all girls, just like the boys, same structure, sched- ule and facilities, they'd come out in throngs." That is what Bailo and many women's wrestling advocates arc pushing for, not making women wrestle men. On March 25-26, it is exactly what they are aiming for at the USWWA Championships. It will be folk style, the traditional way. "At the high school or college level, that's absolutely what I want. It's only fair." Said Bailo.

It has been ten years since Bloomsburg has defeated the wrestling team in dual meet competition. The streak remained alive on Sunday as the Bald Eagles took a close 21-18 win over the 22nd ranked Huskies. At the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Championships, the Huskies edged Lock Haven by just six and 1/2 points for second place. BU started off by showcasing their highest-ranked wrestler, fifth-ranked Ed Hockenberry at 157 pounds. Hockenberry kept in form as he pinned Charlie Bren- neman in 2:42. Bloomsburg kept rolling in the next two matches as Hunter slipped past Brian Olenek 3-2 at 165 and Cassidy Shults beat Josh Millard 13-7 at 174 to build a 13-0 lead in the match. The Haven shot right back, reeling off six straight wins to pull ahead. Sixteenth ranked Dave Murray led it off with an 80 major decision over Chris Froelich at 184 pounds.

We had a spectator bus go over' that was full." Lock Haven University's Sara McMann took to the mats in an exhibition showdown during the match against Bucknell. Her performance demonstrated why women's wrestling is now starting to take off. At the high school and collegiate levels, females are now competing regularly in wrestling. And not just at the women taking on men matches that are looked down upon. These are fullfledged tournaments for women. Coming up in March is the first Women's National Collegiate Wrestling Championship, being held in Lake Orion, Mich. According to Ken Bailo, the director and founder of the United States Women's Wrestling Association (USWWA), there are an estimated 5,000 females wrestling at all levels. Currently however, there are only three college wrestling programs running. Those three are Cumberland College, of Williamsburg, Ky., Missouri Valley, of Marshall, Mo., and the University of Minnesota at Morris. The first two are competing in their first season, while Minnesota-Morris is in it's fourth year. Bailo said that Missouri Valley is currently the team to watch in women's wrestling. They have about 24 girls in their program while Morris has 14 and Cumgender ratio. berland eight. There are several differences in, page 11 Cagers can't Ladies catch a break 184--#16 Dave Murray (LHU) major dec. Chris Froelich (BU), # major decision 14-6. Scott Bair, ranked 15th, followed up with a 12-1 rocking of Justin Haupt to increase the lead. wrestling, the first being the style. The women wrestle freestyle and the men, traditional folk style. There are different points and rules in each, which make it rough on a coach that handles both teams. Many colleges have to hire new staff to adapt to the freestyle. "I'm adamant that women's wrestling is going to gain a foothold and become equal to men's, we need to use the same rules and the same number of weight classes," Bailo said. "Currently, the women use freestyle and that's only six weight classes." Women's wrestling is coming on strong, and it may in part be due to the help of Title IX, the landmark ruling from 1972. Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972 is legislation that bans sex discrimination in schools, whether it is in academics or athletics. Title IX states: "No person in the U.S. shall, on the basis of sex be excluded from participation in, or denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any educational program or activity receiving federal aid." This forced schools all over the country to re-structure their athletic programs. Title IX oversees the treatment and opportunity in athletics, while giving schools flexibility to choose sports based on interest, geographic influence, budget and Women's Basketball 2:42.

Dave Lee/The Eaole Eve snap sevengame losing streak Pete Sinnott Eagle Eye Staff Women's basketball added another loss to their record Wednesday night as Indiana University of Pennsylvania handed them a 78-51 defeat at Thomas Field House. Even before the game started the order seemed pretty tall for the Haven. IUP came into the game with a 21-3 record and ranked first in NCAA II East region. The young Lady Eagles came in with a 7-17 record and no ranking. At 19:26 Shawna Boyd put in a crafty reverse lay-up to tie the score at two, and that was the closest the game was all night. In the first eight minutes the Lady Eagles scored only four points, while IUP managed to dump in 17. The trapping pressure used by the Indians disrupted The Haven's offense, and never allowed them to get into a consistent rhythm. LHU's defense picked up the intensity and caused IUP to turn the ball over 12 times in the first half. However, the Lady Eagles missed too many opportunities to draw the game in close, and went into halftime down 38-23. The second half turned out to be much like the first. Boyd made her first shot of the half at 18:20, but an Indian three-pointer quickly answered it. With five minutes gone Brianna Bair, made a clever back door cut, but missed a wide open open lay-up. IUP then ran the ball down court and put in an easy shot putting the score at 49-29. That was the way it went the entire evening as IUP's depth proved to be too much for The Haven in the second half. The Indians constantly cycled in fresh legs to run at the tiring Lady Eagles. With six minutes left in the game, Indiana went on a 15-6 run to end the game 78-51. Lock Haven grabbed only 11 boards in the second half, and giving up just as many second chances to the Indians was detrimental. Both teams combined for 53 turnovers. y I ■I 3rianna Bair leans into a jumperagainst Indiana University. scoring with 17 points. She was the only starter to reach double digits.
