Workers are now pouring cement into the pile caps, which are the steel beams that carry the weight of the building, said David B. Proctor, Facilities and Planning Director. "It's difficult to say where we are in relation to a time schedule," Proctor said. He explained the workers are still on the first phase of the project, which calls for the completion of the new, expanded parts of the PUB. A tentative completion date has been set fw April 1992. At that time workers will start renovating the old building, and the project should be completely finished by November 1992. Proctor revealed the project's costs are currently $1 million under budget "There are changes being made to the facility's plans which will lowo- costs even more." A majority of the universities and colleges in the Stale System of Higher Education are renovating their student unions. One bond was taken out, and each university pays a portion of the bond issue. University students cunently pay a $60 PUB expansion fee each semester.

"The PUB is important to the students because it has a different atmosphere from theresidencehalls and classrooms," Spangler said. "It gives students another place to spend leisure time in an area where they feel comfortable." EyelRriday. June 21.1991 OPINIONS AND EDITORIALS Confessions of a dangerous mind Survival tips for the dining hall By Steven Infanti Eagle Eye Editor-in-Chief The campus is filling with the pitterpatter of little feet this weekend. Freshman orientation marks the beginning of all the summer camps coming to campus, and with aU these people comes a little confusion, iq)prehension and some stupidity. Relax, I'll try to help. There is something about our dining hall that causes people to lose all brain activity the moment they enter its doors. Nobody has any idea what they're doing, so they just follow the person in front of them. That's a big mistake to make when you consider that the person at the front of the line probably has no idea what's going on either. Three years ago, when I went through OTientation, I was first in line, but I changed my mind about eating and went downstairs to the bathroom. About 150 people followed me. The school woukl have made a fortune if they had pay-toilets. You don't have to play follow the leader when you're in the dining hall. People decide the best thing to do is to grab a tray and silverware, and then get in line. Wrong! If you do that you'll never get a seat We still have squatter's rights on this campus. You get a seat first and use your tray and silverware to mark the spot By doing that you stake your claim on the seat and you don't look like an idiot roaming around the cafeteria, carrying a full tray and looking fOT a place to sit Besides, a full tray is just something else fOT you to spill. The salad bar is not an amusement park ride. It's more Uke a magnet fOT morons. First rule of the salad bar is there are no rules. The gloves are off, it's survival of the fastest You get your food and you get out It's fairly simple. People get in line at one end of the salad bar and they continue to follow it around and around and around. I witnessed some freshmen spend 30 minutes at the salad bar because they didn't know where to get off and they didn't want to offend anybody by jumping out of line. Just act like a shark in a feeding frenzy and you'll do fine. There's another simple device in the cafeteria that causes a lot of problems. It's the tray rack. geometric puzzle. You have a tray that is about two feet across in one direction, and about 15 inches across in the other. You must insert this tray in a rack that has little ridges that are about two feet across from each other. Petite see this but continually try to put their tray in small-side first They can see it doesn't reach the sides of the rack and there is nothing to support the tray when they let go, but they still let it go. I guess people figure the racks are in a gravity-free zone and they just stand there, looking befuddles as the tray crashes to the ground. Now, if you accidentally drop your tray, don't stand around the mess you created. Run, hide or blame it on the guy beside you. Nobody is going to come out with chalk and ouUine the remains of your dinner like it's a homicide victim. Walk slowly in the cafeteria or you may The tray rack is your friend. Parents slip and fall on the remains of somebody's seem to have the most problem with this "Jello fillet" That way other people don't device.

Entitled "The Man of Destiny," the show sounds serious, however, "it has all the ingredients of a comedy," said Dr. Peter Melleri. directOT. "There is mistaken identity, disguise, slapstick humor, and a kind of . love story." Napoleon, played by Sanjiva Cook, needs the dispatches that his "jackass of a lieutenant" played by Jim Bolcavage, is supposed to deliver. But some strange lady, played by Christa Brigandi, disrupts the deUvery of the important war time papers. It all takes place at Marina's Inn,where the host is played by Suzanne Bryla, who's point of duty is to come when she is called. Napoleon can'tfindhis dispatches and the lieutenant thinks that the lady is just no lady. All of this came about when several of the University players were sitting around Prof. Denise Warner's apartment and Sanjiva Cook said "Gosh kids, let's put on a show." Jim Bolcavagereplied,"Where are we going to get a bam?" Somehow out of that conversation, the play arose with Dr. Peter Mellen directing. The costumes and publicity are by Professor Denise Wamer, and Lori Reeder is Stage Manager for the show. Dr. Mellen would like to caution the au• dience that "unlike the Mickey Rooney and > Judy Garland summer performances, there will be no production numbers, no revolving sets and no tributes to Irving Berlin."

Just The LHU summer camps program began when the Bald Eagle wrestling team brought in Dan Gable's famous Iowa Wrestling Clinic to help raise money fOT scholarships needed to compete at Division I level. What began as a way to generate revenue fw the Division I wrestling team has blossomed into a way to finance the University's Division II leams. This year's summer camps promise to be the most exciting ever. Lock Haven will host wrestling camps, under the directwn of first-year head coach Cari Poff, who recently guided his Bald Eagle wrestlers to a second place finish in the PSAC Championships. The University will also offer boy's basketball camps, under the guidance of head coach Dave Blank, and girl's basketball camps, hosted by head women's basketball coach Frank Scarfo. Scarfo has one of LHU's most successful summer camps. "We started our first camp with 56 athletes," noted the coach. "Now we have more than 500. An extraOTdinary number of these players have gone on to play at all levels collegiately." At Scarfo's camp, like all camps at LHU, personal instruction is what makes the experience so valuable to the camper. "We predominantly use the the LHU coaching staff and players, as well as some of the top high school coaches in the state." Scarfo said. "They spend an extraordinary amount of time working with each camper on an individual basis, providing them with one-to-one attention." This c«i be said of each LHU camp. Bald Eagle head soccer coach Lenny Long runs an extremely popular SOCCCT camp for both boys and girls. His camps have rivaled even the wrestling camp and continue to grow. Fresh off yet anodier PSAC soccer championship. PSAC I^ayer of the Year Gary Ross will be on hand this summer to help Long with the camps. Long and his assistant coach, formoLock Haven NCAA All-American Phil Stephenson, were two (rf three founders of the LHU soccer camp. "We have just watched our camp explode in size. Last year we had 420 campers. This year^we will excede 600," noted Stephenson. Stephenson's comments echo throughout the athletic department as each new camp succeeds. The Bald Eagle football teams speed and strength clinic, hosted by head coach Dennis Therrell, has been opened up to both players and coaches of all levels. The response to this camp has already been outstanding. In addition to the summer resident camps, where campers stay overnight in the University's residence halls, head men's and women's tennis coach Dale Fisher is in the process of setting up a "Day Camp," for both boys and giris. Also, both men's and women's basketball teams will run "Skills Clinics" during their regular seasons. llien, tliis sic); leeling come over me. Forget me, wliot oboi/t tliof guy?
