Lock Haven State College Eae Vol. XVI, No, 98 Tues., April 9,1974 Controversial budget passed By Jan Albright The 1974-5 SCC budget was approved last night by a vote of 17-7. Athletic allocations proved to be the most controversial point of the evening, with many senators expressing objections to the expenditures which comprise 38,66% of the budget. Ron Vance reported a change in athletic allocations to $77,356.36, the «19.50 decrease due to a miscalculation in wrestling transportation costs to Bucknell. The $19.50 was added to the contingency fund. Following a motion to approve the budget, a period of discussion took place in which many senators voiced their opinions. Parlementarian Dave Drabot questioned the incoming revenue from both athletics and the social committee. Treasurer Ron Vance reported that the athletic income from this year will reach approximately $13,000 when all checks are in, next year's anticipated revenue being $14,3000. The Social Committee has brought in $7,720 as of February and should reach their expected income after Spring Weekend, substantiating their proposed 74-75 income of $3,000. A number of senators questioned the $3,000 allocation to small clubs, a category which includes The Folk Society. Doubt was expres sed as to whether the society would receive an adequate amount of funds while being included with small clubs. Treasurer Vance explained that small clubs are asked for budget requests in the fall, the Folk Society being the only new club to request funds this school year. He said that pending no other new requests, the Folk Society will get at least $700, the same amount they received this year. A large portion of the discussion concerned athletic allocations. Tim Foltz stated that the 38.66% of the budget devoted to athletics was too much, compared to the direct participatory part played by the students. President Rich DeBernardo wagered that at least 38% of the student body somehow participates in athletics. Treasurer Vance reported that LHS athletic teams will be traveling 13,762 miles by bus, adding $2,064 36 due to increased bus rates. Van mileage has also increased. The addition of two new sports, womens syncronized swimming and womens competative swiming, has also caused a need for increased athletic expenditures. Senator Dennis Greenaway questioned the achievements of various sports programs and stated that the SCC should have some input in selecting coaches. Other senators said that poor athletic records can also be attributed to insufficient interest by some coaches as well as the lack of quality athletes due to no athletic scholarships. Recording Secretary Linda Schreiber questioned the remaining portion ofthe budget not devoted to athletics, citing instances of poor attendance in areas such as cultural affairs. continued on page 4 Haven to be summer picnic "The Haven" will become a resort for families wishing to take an inexpensive vacation in the mountains of Central Pennsylvania. The college is opening up its residence halls during the last week of June to families who can live on campus and take advantage of the recreational facilities available. Activities include swinr ming in the indoor pools and the river, tennis , canoeing, picnicing and hiking. For social activites, a picric and a campfire are scheduled. The library will be open for use and films may be shav n. Free tutoring available by Doris Checkaneck For the first time, Lock Haven State now has an organized, free tutoring program. The primary service of the Student Assistance Program (SAP) is to offer tutoring on a one-to-one basis as well as in groups. The center urges students not to wait till they are failing a subject to apply for a tutor. Students should go to Smith office 8 between 9-4:30 daily in order to take advantage of the program. Within a few days, the student will be contacted if there is a tutor available. Tutoring is done primarily by students employed by the center. There are several requirments for students wishing to apply for a tutor-counselor position. They cannot be employed elsewhere on campus and the center prefers upperclassmen, though exceptions may be made. Students should have high cumulative averages and a recommendation from a faculty member. Students are encouraged to apply for tutor-counselor positions, and get further information by going to office 8 in Smith Hall. Summer school counselors are especially needed. SAP is also concerned with developing a study skills workshop and group activities orientated toward college life. The Student Assistance Program (SAP) was developed after LHS received two grants. The state grant " Act 101" and the federal grant provided by "Special Services" are administered through the Office of Development, and each grant has established eligibility guidelines. Robert Lane, director of the state grant and Martha Nicholson, director of the federal grant, have combined efforts to offer "supportive services to financial and/or academically eligible students". The Educational Opportunity Center is located in Smith, office 1. The two center co-ordinaters are Marilou Gary and Wendy Gardiner, who supervise studying in the center. The center is open daily, plus Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday nights from 74 0 pjii. page 2 EAGLE EYE Tues., April 9,1974 Lock Haven itate i.oiiege Britain con survive anything By Evalyn Fisher "If the British can survive their meals," George Bernard Shaw once chided, "they can survive anything." But, whether Britain can these days find hurnor or truth in Mr. Shaw's statement is questionable; the country is wading amidst its worst economic crisis since World War II. The muck began with Britain's winter rain and the Middle East War. As England was boycotted by the oilproducing Arab states, she continued to sell to Holland some of what oil she did obtain, a matter which grew in controversy and caused already high-priced petrol to rise in price to over SI per gallon. Nexl the nation's truck drivers revolted - they refused to pay rising petrol costs and keep their rigs on the road. Scattered lorry strikes kept industry's and consumers' nerves on edge. In London, the commuter train union added to the tension when it decided to stage a slow-down to win a few of its demands. One of those demands was installed speedometers, a negligence they justifiably noted as dangerous. The normal British cool temper ran a true test as queues numbered into the hundreds for the work-hour commuter specials. Unbelievability entered the country's sad tale when the coal miners threatened to strike for higher wages, and then did. The country's export economy began to tremble as the coal supply dwindled, and the pound fell to a postwar low on the European market. Prime Minister Heath refused to comply with the militant miners demands, and the coal shut-off dragged on. Unquestionably, a power cut was Heath's next attempt to stave off the miners' paralyzing control of the country. So Heath put Britain on a three-day work week and asked all countrymen to conserve on heating and electricity, a plea our country can well understand. Lights wenl out all over the nation, and warm rooms became nearly non-existant. tiaven stores were lighted by candlelight to back the Prime Minister's request. At least il appeared to be support; a February election proved otherwise. The British population voted in a new political party, and all at Heath's requesting misfortune. Now the Labour Party was to try its hand at running the muck. And from statistics reported in Newsweek, March 4, the population is nol optimistic about the aces in Wilson's deck. Perhaps the dissatisfaction wilh the new government may be speculated lo be seen in the March 28 kidnapping attempt of Princess Work on Crucible is now underway Work on the Crucible, LHS's Student literary magazine, is under way with expected publication this fall. Fidilor Debbie Rowles, a junior English-Liberal Arts major, is optimistic that this year's publication may be representative of a number of campus writers. Rowles, a 1972 participant in the Nottingham exchange program, feels she has gained " a new perspect tive" from the experience. While in England she started a comparative study of the LHS literary magazine, Nottingham College literary Magazine, and a number of independent student publications. More artwork is included in her plans for this year's magazine. Professors Joeseph Nicholson and Vincent Stewart are advisors to the small staff, which includes Sue Kisher, Donna Leggett, Dan Keefer, Sharon Hamilton, Pat Ramsey, and Jan Albright. Friday April 19 is the final deadline for all manuscripts to be submitted. Students who entered the recent poetry and short story contest are especially reminded to submit another copy of their work to Russell 05 to be considered for publication. Anne, a rare incident in a country which has treated its royalty kindly since Charles I lost his head in 1649, "Still, extraordinary circumstances have usually brought out the best in the British," stated an article in the March 11 issue of Newsweek, and an AP story recently reporied that the country is coping wilh its three-day work week and other drawbacks far better than expected. The coal miners' dispute has been settled to the miners' current satisfaction, homes are warmer and brighter, and unemployment has actually dropped a quarter of a million workers from the January level. So far, manufactures seem to be gelling 70 and 80 per cent of their normal output, and the feared bankruptcies of small firms have not yet been a problem. Thus, although the common folk are generally confused and/or disgusted wilh the results of their February election, scattered shopping days, and stale of the union, the struggle lo maintain Britain's historic stiff upper lip continues. As was slated in the Newsweek issue of March 11, "The secret of the system, Harold Laski observed long ago, is 'the gentleman's genius for compromise and his capicily for absoralion.'" Mr, Shaw may be right, after all. Students opt to vote Twenty-nine LHS students registered to vote in Clinton County during voter registration held on campus Wednesday, April 3. Seventeen of these students registered as Democrat^ and seven as republicans while three registered nonparty and two as Constitutionalists. Four change-overs were reprinted with three nonparty registering as Democrats and one Republican changing over to the Democratic party. The primary election will take place May ll. Anyone wishing lo register to vole in Clinton County and did not get a chance to do so in the campus registration can sign up at the Clinton County Courthouse. The Courthouse will be open for registration from 6 pm to 9 pm on April 15 through the 22nd. I DON T CARE HOW UMO HE'S BEEN IN THERE. VDU KNOW TME RULES ABoUT UNrtEfilSTERej^ GUESTS.

Infielders Mike Crone,and Barry Anderson are back for another varisty stretch, as are pitchers Brian Winters and John Smundim, outfielder Dave Royer and backstop Jeff Kashner. Rich Osborn, a three year letter winner for the Eagles, had to be dropped from the team due to his carrying and inadequate number of credits this semester.

A roll call vote was taken 17 senators in favor and 7 against. With this vote, the budget was carried. Only one arnmendmenl t o the budget was considered. Senator Mike Holter moved to ammend by deleting the S4,500 allocated for the radio station, and adding it to the contingency fund. The reason for this ammendment was that at present, the radio station is not recognised by the senate as an organization. "I think a budget should actively reflect what you anticipate providing funds for," stated Treasurer Vance in explaining the radio station allocation. He added that the senate must vote before the money can be spent. The ammendment was voted on by roll call and defeated with a vote of 4 yes, 17 no, 2 abstaining. By this time a number of senators had left, accounting for the change in total votes. The cbess club has changed its meeting day from Tuesday to Sunday.
