Double Duty for Administrators by TERRI CORNELIUS Two members ofthe Lock Haven State College administration, Francis J. Cornelius and Bryan Van Deun, have accepted new staff positions this year. Mr. Cornelius is assuming the duties of Director of Administrative Services along with his previous staff appointments as Assistant to the Vice President for Administration and Director of Alumni Affairs. Due to the Small Club membership is on the increase this Semester by GARY ISHLER An increase in enthusiasm has prompted the formation of three new small clubs on campus for this academic year. Sking, Radio and Geoscience now join such popular mainstays as Biology, Dance, English, History and Wilderness. It is hoped that the additions, which are currently very popular subjects, will provide a wider variety of organizations and activities for students to chose from. According to Joe Harper, SCC Treasurer, $3,000 will be allocated to the various organizations. This is the same amount as last year, but the full financial burden is on the SCC, whereas last year the Friends of Lock Haven, an organization composed of members of the community, gave $1,000 to the funding of small clubs. Last spring the Senate Allocations Committee decided upon the grand budget after the clubs submitted their individual budgets for the upcoming year. The committee does their best to meet the requests , which are made through a budget hearing, to make sure every possible interest will be covered withing each respective organization. Money used for this funding comes exclusively from student activity fees. Harper pointed out that it will be difficult to allocate the $3,000 to a total of 12 to 20 "hungry clubs." He stressed the importance of each club presenting their list of the coming year expenses, in the form of an estimate, which is due in his office by Tuesday, September 27 at 6:00 p.m. There are a few small clubs that are self supportive. They may, however, recieve financial aid from the SCC through a "special account." By this process, the SCC can provide purchase orders and pay bills for the club out of their account. Each club works independently with its own student leaders and faculty advisors. Benefits from the clubs are available to nonmembers through lectures, field trips, dances and even to the community with programs to benefit the handicapped. Most clubs have already begun holding regular meetings. But it is not to late to join the one of your choice. Lists of all clubs and their meeting dates are available on the Campus Calender. Anyone having questions or desiring further information about any of the small clubs should visit any of the SCC Executive Board Offices on the ground level of the PUB. departure of Mrs. Margaret Bergenstjema, former Director of Administrative Services, and a current freeze by the Department of Education on replacement of the job vacancy, Cornelius has taken over Mrs. Bergenstjema's duties. His job directing Administrative Services is on an interim basis until the vacancy is permitted to be filled by a full time director.

Even the rather flamboyant review by Dr. DeSanto on the movie E M M A N U E L L E , didn't cause a rise in students. The invitational column C O P I N G , a n ' experiment in participatory journalism, has as yet received little response. No letters to the Editor have crossed my desk.

Do you exist, as thinking individuals, interested in how accurately this paper reflects your interests? Have we misrepresented you? If so, let us hear about it... if not, fold this edition carefully into a paper airplane and aim towards the nearest wastebasket. Because without the safeguards your response provides this newspaper is not worth the paper on which it is printed. J , M RUNKLE Editor-in-Chief We ap ologjze for the implication in tuesday's paper that the fire department was negligent in arriving twenty minutes after the fire started in Woolridge H a l l . The Lock Haven fire department actually arrived five minutes after they were called. The call was placed 15 minutes after the fire was discovered. They have maintained & constant vigilance and are to be commended for their efforts on campus and in the community. Commentary Summer is slowly slipping away and with its end another semester at the "Haven" begins. With the dawn of the new semester 1 realize that the same old problems still exist. One being law enforcement. I must have a misunderstanding as to what law enforcement officers are here at Lock Haven for. To me these officers should fiinction to help students in time of need. The following will show that at Lock Haven this is not always the case. At the end of last semester a student (Rick Hoover) invited his brother to the "Haven" for a party. As happens at some parties a few people get a little too drunk and a scene occurred over a girl.Hoover's brother had promised to take this girl back to her dorm. While in the process of doing this, the other student involved in the incident got in his vehicle and ran Rick's brother off the road causing damage to both vehicles. Law enforcement came and took the guy away and when Rick came down to aid his brother he stopped by at Law Enforcement to ask what the story was and what was going to happen. The law enforcement officer on duty said ' 'You better get out of here.'' Hoover persisted and according to Rick he was told "To get the hell out of the office." Is this the way students should be treated by people "supposedly" hired to help us. 1 sure would not want to depend on that kind of help. This fall another incident occurred that once again shows law enforcement as lacking.

Pettingill COMPOSITION EDITOR John Vukovic ASSOCIATE EDITORS. .Marie MacNamara, Tina Brooks ENTERTAINMENT EDITOR Carla Eaton ADVISOR Dr. Saundra Hybels GENERAL MANAGER Martha Hastings September 27th through the 30th the College Players of Lock Haven State College will be presenting two one-act plays in the Theatre Upstairs (Sloan 321). Performances will begin at 8:00 pm. The plays are both by August Strindberg; they are "The Stronger" and "Mother Love." "The Stronger" is under the direction of John Gordon is about a meeting between two women in a small cafe. It is a rather one-sided cohversation which takes place between "The Quiet Woman" played by Barbara Eieswerth and "The sneaking Woman" plaved by Gwen Hummel. "The Ouiet quite interesting. This piece of information causes a major argument between the mother and the daughter which will change their relationship forever. Strindberg was one of the forerunners of modem realistic drama about real people in supposedly real situations. Admission to the performances is free, the house will open at 7:45, and it is advised that you come eariy because seating is limited. Studio Theatre has a definite quality which is all its own; that of intimacy. If you have not experienced this unique form of theatre do take advantage of this opprotunity. The College Players and the Department of SpeechCommunications/Theatre strongly urge anyone who is in any way interested in working in studio theatre in any capacity to get in touch with either Ms. Felice Proctor or Dr. Gary in the Sloan Fine Arts Cenfre. We are promoting participation in studio theatre for several reasons. (1) It gives all students who are interested, an opprotunity to direct a production if they put together a proposal which is approved by the board of directors of College Players. (2) It offers students interesting and innovative opprotunities in the areas of set, costume, and lighting design. (3) Last, but not least the chance to perform in a close actor audience situation. Where at times you are no more than a foot away from an audience member. Some of you may be familiar with one of our productions. "The Stronger" was performed this past summer by the College Players in conjunction with the Department of Speech-Communication/Theafre for the district meeting of the International Thespian Club. This will be the first performance of "Mother Love." Studio theatre as Carla mentioned last week has become quite popular, we hope to see our regular pafrons plus many new faces, and if you become fruly caught up in the power of the performance and want to get involved in our next studio production stop backstage I'll be running the light board. Hope to see you at the shoe. (°™''"'"" 1 Preview by C. FLYNN Woman" is apparently an old lover of "The Speaking Woman's" husband. The question left at the end of the play is for the audience to decide who is really "The Stronger." Almost all women are biologically capable of being mothers, but are they necessarialy capable of being mothers in the true sense of the word? That is the problem posed in Strindberg's "Mother Love," which will be running concurrently with "The Stronger" in the Theafre Upstairs. "Mother Love" is under the direction of Felice Proctor. There are four characters in the play: played by Nancy Stay, Leslie Taggert, Diane Grompton, and Dena Kauffman. The mother, played by Nancy Stay, has told her daughter (Diane Crompton) for many years that her father is a blackguard, and that she is most fortunate that he left before she ever got to know him. A friend of the daughter's named Lisa (Leslie Taggert) comes to live with the mother and the daughter. Lisa brings a very revealing piece of information about the daughter's father; which proves to be • • • • • • • • • • • • • •• • • • • • • • • • • • * Phi Mu Delta had a party on Saturday night about two weeks ago. A student had too much to drink and was asked to leave, he refused. The brotherhood was then forced to evict this student. The student was persistent in the idea of returning to the house. The brotherhood was then forced with the decision of what to do. They did not physically harm this student but took him over to school property by Zimmerii and called law enforcement. Forty-five minutes later still no law enforcement. This student was really "plastered" and knowing the feeling well the brothers just wanted him to sleep it off but he was causing a disturbance that bothered the neighbors. Finally they saw a law enforcement officer down by the traffic light. They asked two girls passing by to go get him. Finally he arrived. When asked why he came so late he replied "This student isn't bothering me." Great fucking answer. He was bothering students on campus that the ofticer represents unless of course they are here just receiving paychecks. Around ninety minutes after the first call the officer finally took this student back to the dorm. There were only two officerson duty that night. They said they were too busy to hassle with it. People had to be let in dorms but when it was checked only two students requested to be let in dorms. If these officers are so busy why aren't more people working nights. It burns me to see "student" law enforcement trainees doing nothing more than telling students they can't park in the PUB parking lot because you do not have a "5" sticker. They must give out a hundred tickets a day but parked cars do not represent the danger that a drunk person on a Saturday night night does. I never heard a parked car causing a distrubance. Law enforcement has at least five new CETA employees, four student officers and who knows how many more. It seems to me their priorities lie in giving out parking tickets and not aiding students. Another example of this is they now utilize unmarked cars to catch people with beer on campus or lasso illegally parked cars. The priorities of law enforcement seem to be misplaced. So l-am suggesting to the Senate and the Executive Committee to form an ad hoc committee headed by myself to meet with Mr. Nelson and see what the problems are and how to correct them.

By now most of the freshmen are comfortably settled into their dorms and can easily find their way to class without the use of that handy little computer sheet loaded with mind-boggling numbers and names. They have been properly introduced to the cafeteria food, the noisy dormitories, the Library of Congress system in Stevenson Library, and of course the bookstore and the price of books. They have become familiar with the profs and their teaching methods and are beginning to realize just how much time and effort they will have to devote to each class in order to pass. Some freshmen have attended frat parties and movies and have joined groups or clubs which interest them. They are learning to enjoy college life now that things have settled into a daily routine. Here are the comments of a few freshmen when they were asked how they liked things at LHS: "There are a lot of things to do." "The people are so friendly." " I loved the panty raids. They were so original!" "Upperclassmen are very nice." " I feel very independent now that I have to do everything for myself." " M y roommate is cool!" "The food is killing me even though I gained five pounds." "Some of the profs are very enlightening." "The SCC movies aren't too bad!" "Meeting all different kinds of people from different places and trying to remember ali their names is a lot of fun." Life has been hectic these past three weeks, but most freshmen seem well-adjusted and happy with life at LHS. Friday, Sept. 23,1977 page 3 EAGLEEYE APSCUF sites new goals by SUE SHELLY Dr. Edward C. Gawson became president of the Lock Haven chapter of the Association of Pennsylvania State Colleges and University faculties (APSCUF), May 16, 1977. He replaced former president. Dr. William J. Leavy, and is serving a two-year term. When Clawson was elected president. Miss Sharon Ti^lor, Associate Professor of physical education became presidentelect. She will serve two years in her present position and replace Gawson as president in May, 1979. Taylor will be the first woman at Lock Haven State to serve as APSCUF president. She previously served as vice-president for two years, before the position was abolished. She was also a member of the Executive Committee and has been in APSCUF for six years. Taylor says that a strong interest in politics and sympathy to the union cause were her main reason for wanting to become APSCUF president. She feels that holding the office will be a very difficult and time consuming job. She anticipates it as being "very challenging." Clawson expressed support and confidence for president-elect, Taylor, saying he feels that women are underrepresented on Lock Haven's campus because there aren't as many women as men to serve the faculty. He described some of his goals as APSCUF president which include: involving more faculty in various areas and getting APSCUF more involved in the curriculum area. He sfressed the importance of having more & better contact with the legislators at all times, not just crisis times. Dr. Gawson feels that a good rapport with legislators will l>e exfremely beneficial during pressured times, such as when budgets are being made. Gawson also hopes to improve communication between faculty and adminisfration, saying, "there is always need for more." Taylor described her goals as future APSCUF president to be similar to Gawson's in that she wants to see more involvement in leadership by faculty members. She said that she hopes to create a closer bond between APSCUF, student government, and faculty. She feels that APSCUF does act to benefit students, and cited the example of the union planning to provide student scholarships. Taylor said that despite APSCUF's good intentions, she believes it to be "A victim of bad press," and consequently feels that it has a negative image among students. She hopes to rid APSCUF of this stigma when she becomes president.
