Vol. XIX No. 46
SCC meeting closed
by loss of quorum
By JULIE BRENNAN
Staff Reporter
The main discussion at last
Wednesday night's SCC Senate meeting centered around
Scott Torquato's recent dismissal from his job at the
Snack Bar of the Eagle Wing.
The lenghty discussion concerning some of the reasons
why Torquato, a LHS student,
was fired, ended indispair. No
results occurred because, before the discussion was over,
several senators walked out of
the meeting, thus there was no
quorum and no resolution
could be voted upon.
Reports from the various
SCC Standing Committees
were on the agenda. The
Election Committee stated
that nominations for the SCC
Executive Board Election on
Monday, November 29, were
officially closed as of 6 pm
Monday, November 15. To be
qualified as a write-in for the
election, you must be signed in
as so with the Ecection
Committee before 9 am,
Monday, November 29. Only
one write-in per each office
will be permitted.
The Election Committee
also announced that for the
first time, students will be able
to obtain absentee voting
ballots from Friday, November
19, to Wednesday, November
24, for those who will not be
here on election day. Absentee
ballots will be available on
those days, from 8 am to 4 pm
at the Secretary's office in
the bottom floor of the PUB.
The Senate Appropriations
Committee stated that they
would be holding a committee
meeting Thursday night.

low level of public safety on
campus, according to Mike
Buckwash, chairman.
No goals have been established yet says Buckwash.
However, one of the main
problems is with fire safety.
Sloan, to Buckwash's knowledge, is the only building on
campus with a direct fire
telegraph, although stated
Buckwash, it would be
beneficial for every dorm or
building. In front of North and
McEntire halls students are
creating a fire hazard,
remarked Buckwash, by parking their cars in the no parking
zones. This blocks the
entrances that fire trucks and
ladders would use. Another
dorm fire hazard is that the

Kim Gazabat's production
receives a critical review
By KEITH VERNON
Staff Reporter
The College Players' presentation of Henrik Ibsen's
"An Enemy of the People,"
playeo to fairly large crowds
last Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. The play, which
was adapted for the American
state by Arthur Miller, left audiences with feelings of doubt,
if not pessimism, about the
triumph of truth in the worid.
The play, which was under
;he direction of Kim Gazabat,
got off to an extremely slow
and tedious start. The first
two acts, which often dragged
excessively, were plagued by
inconsistency and a lack of energy and rhythm. The play
centered around Dr. Thomas
Stockmann, played by Charlie
Charette, whose performance
throughout most of the first
two acts was hardly an indication of the power he was to
generate later on.
In the first scene of Act One,
Charette seemed listiess and
delivered his lines without
energy. His lack of energy
was matched by George Strunk
who played Dr. Stockmann's
brother Peter. Strunk never
quite attained the level of villainy required to portray the
sinister character of Peter
Stockmann.
Strunk and
Charette's listlessness
throughout most of the first
two acts was contrasted
sharply, and therefore awkwardly, by the intense and
moving performance of Sharon
Hamilton as the wife of Dr.
Stockmann. Hamilton's powerful performance, which
seemed out of place against
the colorless first and second
act performances of Charette
and Strunk, was one of the
reasons for the inconsistency
in Acts One and Two.
Dan Book, as Dr. Stockmann's father-in-law Morten
Kill, represented a bright spot
in the cast and in the opinion
of this critic, was the strongest
male character in the play.
Book was more than convincing as the elderiy Morten Kill,
possessing a very commanding stage presence that
seemed to ignite the scenes he
was in.
Scene one of Act Two

perpetuated the sluggishness
of Act One and contained, as
did the scenes before it, some
unnecessary and awkward
blocking. State movements
through almost the entire play
were cumbersome and mechanical, which served to
hamper the rhythm of the
scenes.
In between scenes director
Kim Gazabat chose to p'ay pop
songs over the P.A. system.
The songs, which ranged from
the Beatles to Loudon Wainwright, believe it or not, more
or less coincided thematically
with the play. Regardless of
the thematic unity and of director Gazabat's undoubtedly
good intentions, the songs
proved detrimental to the
mood of the play. The scenes
in the play all built to a
dramatic climax which was
immediately ruined by the

PI
AN OPEN LETTER TO DAVTO C. HEVERLY
David,
You've asked me to respond to your recent criticisms of the
SCC and the Eagle Eye. While I believe that most of the campus
doesn't understand your arguements, I am perfictiy willing to add
my comments to the confusion.
You are claiming that the Eagle Eye isn't performing its
rightful duties because of the SCC interests of Editor Julie
McGovern and the involvement of editorial staff members JoAnn
Morse and Phillip J. Buriingame.
Your charges are very serious. They are particulariy important in light of the fact that the Student Publications Board will
soon be meeting to select next semester's editor.
I think it is time to come out and declare that the Eagle Eye is
not serving the campus in its duty to "watchdog" its student
government.
When I say that the Eagle Eye isn't functioning properly, you
have to understand what I mean. In no way do I intend to imply
that the Eagle Eye hierarchy is deliberately cleaning up SCC dirt
and publishing sanitized news. Instead, the Eagle Eye's albatross
appears in the form of neglect.
Where Ifindfault with this semester's Eagle Eye is in its lack
of initiative to write about what the SCC Isn't doing. No one seems
to care that the SCC and other organizations have grown so
removed from the student body that it is now indeed a rare fool
that takes them seriously. No one cares enough to write about it,
at least.
I ask anyone who examines the alienation factor on campus to
read the Eagle Eye and tell me whether or not it has been hard
enough on the SCC.
David, what you are attacking in your own melodramatic way
is indeed a menace; it is the menace of what happens when a
select few have their hands in every pot in town. The few with the
busy hands get so caught up in what they're doing that they lose
their perspective. Sadly, I must agree with you that the SCC involvement of the Eagle Eye hierarchy is preventing them from
putting their talents to work in a more journalistic manner.
What bothers me about the current close relationship of the
newspaper and the student government here is that it is a break in
tradition.
When I think of how long and how hard
old "Eagle Eyers" worked to insure a forum for dissent, I become
disturbed. When I remember how much you've done to develop
this and then see your column abused with noncomprehendable
SICs, I too become a little queezy in the stomach.
Unless the Eagle Eye heirarchy can find someone on their
staff who is removed enough from the SCC to point out its errors, I
have to'recommends that all editorial staff members be prevented
from involvement in the SCC. Also, unless the English
department starts stressing the importance of a seperation of
newspaper and government, I don't see how they can claim to be
teaching future journalists. It is, after all, ignoring the traditional
function of the press.
It almost seems as if extra scripts from "An Enemy of the
People" have been distributed for campus figures to act out
Ibsen's characters. If things don't change soon around here,
David, you'll have to pick up your gauntiet and book us passage to
Norway.

VARSITY OUTLASTS ALUMNI 34-14
In a duel*-that was closer matched than the score indicated,
the LHS varsity slammed and pounded to emerge the victor of the
Saturday Night Classic. The contest matching the varsity vs the
alumni, was extremely physical while equally sprinkled with
flashy wrestling. The Mat Town festivities started out with a
pre-season preview that got-off the ground, and a national anthem
that did not. Both teams prepared for the showdown.
The first bout ofthe evening saw LHS star, 118 pounder Gary
"Yacky" Uriam, virutally playing with opponent (Alum) Brian
Kuntz to a 15-7 decision. Uriam showed the "Stuff" that made
him a U.S.W.F. National Champion ai:d an Olympic contender.
The 126 pound contest faced senior Sean Ahern against ex
LHS star Cari Lutz. The match began in a cat and mouse game
with both wrestlers being cautions. However, the ex Camden
Catholic (N.J.) Ace, Ahern suddenly outleashed an attack
resulting in two takedowns and an escape. Ahern's strength was
the determining factor as he strongarmed Lutz to a 6-1 win.
This made the duel score 6 to zip in favor of the varsity. The
elated, yet unsatisfied. Haven Fans cheered for more, and that's
exactly what they got. Mike More, varsities' 142 pound "Virginia
Gentleman". Moure pounced Bob Banfill 5-2 with a variety of
classy attacks. Result varsity 9, Alumni 0. With the defeat of
Banfill, it seemed as though the varsity would blow the alumni
right off the mats!
Enter Alumni Rob Johnson at 150. In what proved to be one
ofthe most colorful matches of the night, Johnson wasted no time
and went right on the attack. The crowd was on their feet as the
alumnus escaped and took down the York, Pa. product Paul Rohler
to a 7-1 decision.
The crowd was again set to their heels as the unheraldedL.H.)
frosh Mike Nauman shocked Dave Crowell with an opening
takedown. However, the veteran Crowell proved the more
cunning, reversing the frosh and adding an escape and riding time
for a 4-2 decision.
The alumni comeback rally was then cut short by "Lethal"
Ricky Ware. Ware buzzsawed alumni Doug Conlon with three
takedowns in the first period, added another with an escape. Later
result Ware 9, Conlon 2.
At 167 Guitar Picking Sophomore Jerry Peterman engaged in
battie with ex-teamate and drill partner Mike DeBarbieri. The
"Muscle Match" ended in a 1-1 draw.
As alumnus Donny Adams ran on the mat, cheers could be
heard throughout the "House of Noise". Adams, a crowd favorite
outslicked the game sophomore Austin Shanfelter 6-4.
That set the stage for a classic showdown at 177, Al Fricke
and his arch-rival Hank Hawkins. The bout started off with an
unspectacular 1st period. "Sticky" Fricke then proceeded into his
usual circus pinning act, and decked the alumnus 20 seconds into
the 2nd period.
Frosh 177 pounded Rick Osman outslicked Greg Day to a 9-2
decision.
190 — The most spectacular wrestier of the night had to be
ex-NAIA national champion Frank "Ike" Esenhower. "Ike"
brought back old times as he handed N.J. Frosh Mark Coppola a
6-4 defeat. Esenhower was named the outstanding alumni
wrestling award.
190 II — Tim Thompson blasted Frank Geiger 4-0 and
"super"-heavyweight Greg Koontz put the icing on the cake

playing of light-spirited popular songs. As much as 1 love
the Beaties and Jesus Christ
Superstar, I can't think that
either of them has any place in
a play of such a serious nature.
In scene two of Act Two, the
energy level finally picked up.
Unfortunately, the energy flow
increased a bit too much and
the scene became unrealistic.
In the scene, Peter Stockmann, along with a few others,
incites a crowd to an almost
murderous frenzy so quickly as
to be unrealistic. A few of the
people in the angry mob could
be heard to growl like animals,
which hurt the credibility of
the scene.
I have nothing but praises
for the last act.
Ken
Showman's interesting characterization of Holvastad came
into full effective bloom and
Chris Flynn as Aslasken
seemed to finally get a fairly
firm grasp on his character.
Strunk still fell short of the
meanness so necessary for his
character but he vas considerably more villianous than he
had been at any other time in
the play.
Of course the big difference
in Act Three was Charlie
Charette. It was his act. It
was as though he had been saving all his energy for last act.
He held nothing back and his
anger and frustration flooded
the stage and captivated the
audience. The exchange
between Charette and Book
represented a level of acting
that was unequaled in the
play. Their confrontation very
nearly made the following
action seem anticlimactic. Rick
Kline's masterful handling of
the part of Morten, Dr.
Stockmann's young son, recaptured the intensity of the
Charette/Book exchange and
prevented the play from ending acticlimactically.
The power of the third act
rescued the play from the
ranks of mediocrity and made
the production a very worthwhile one indeed. two acts come close to
realizing their dramatic potential, this production would
have ranked among the very
best shows I have seen at Lock
Haven State in the past year
and a half.

SCC meeting closed
by loss of quorum
By JULIE BRENNAN
Staff Reporter
The main discussion at last
Wednesday night's SCC Senate meeting centered around
Scott Torquato's recent dismissal from his job at the
Snack Bar of the Eagle Wing.
The lenghty discussion concerning some of the reasons
why Torquato, a LHS student,
was fired, ended indispair. No
results occurred because, before the discussion was over,
several senators walked out of
the meeting, thus there was no
quorum and no resolution
could be voted upon.
Reports from the various
SCC Standing Committees
were on the agenda. The
Election Committee stated
that nominations for the SCC
Executive Board Election on
Monday, November 29, were
officially closed as of 6 pm
Monday, November 15. To be
qualified as a write-in for the
election, you must be signed in
as so with the Ecection
Committee before 9 am,
Monday, November 29. Only
one write-in per each office
will be permitted.
The Election Committee
also announced that for the

to obtain absentee voting
ballots from Friday, November
19, to Wednesday, November

Stockmann, played by Charlie
Charette, whose performance
throughout most of the first
two acts was hardly an indication of the power he was to
generate later on.
In the first scene of Act One,
Charette seemed listiess and
delivered his lines without
energy. His lack of energy
was matched by George Strunk
who played Dr. Stockmann's
brother Peter. Strunk never
quite attained the level of villainy required to portray the
sinister character of Peter
Stockmann.
Strunk and
Charette's listlessness
throughout most of the first
two acts was contrasted
sharply, and therefore awkwardly, by the intense and
moving performance of Sharon
Hamilton as the wife of Dr.
Stockmann. Hamilton's powerful performance, which
seemed out of place against
the colorless first and second
act performances of Charette
and Strunk, was one of the
reasons for the inconsistency
in Acts One and Two.
Dan Book, as Dr. Stockmann's father-in-law Morten
Kill, represented a bright spot
in the cast and in the opinion
of this critic, was the strongest
male character in the play.
Book was more than convincing as the elderiy Morten Kill,
possessing a very commanding stage presence that
seemed to ignite the scenes he
was in.

perpetuated the sluggishness
of Act One and contained, as
did the scenes before it, some
unnecessary and awkward
blocking. State movements
through almost the entire play
were cumbersome and mechanical, which served to
hamper the rhythm of the
scenes.
In between scenes director
Kim Gazabat chose to p'ay pop
songs over the P.A. system.
The songs, which ranged from
the Beatles to Loudon Wainwright, believe it or not, more
or less coincided thematically
with the play. Regardless of
the thematic unity and of director Gazabat's undoubtedly
good intentions, the songs
proved detrimental to the
mood of the play. The scenes
in the play all built to a
dramatic climax which was
immediately ruined by the

AN OPEN LETTER TO DAVTO C. HEVERLY
David,
You've asked me to respond to your recent criticisms of the
SCC and the Eagle Eye. While I believe that most of the campus
doesn't understand your arguements, I am perfictiy willing to add
my comments to the confusion.
You are claiming that the Eagle Eye isn't performing its
rightful duties because of the SCC interests of Editor Julie
McGovern and the involvement of editorial staff members JoAnn
Morse and Phillip J. Buriingame.
Your charges are very serious. They are particulariy important in light of the fact that the Student Publications Board will
soon be meeting to select next semester's editor.
I think it is time to come out and declare that the Eagle Eye is
not serving the campus in its duty to "watchdog" its student
government.
When I say that the Eagle Eye isn't functioning properly, you
have to understand what I mean. In no way do I intend to imply
that the Eagle Eye hierarchy is deliberately cleaning up SCC dirt
and publishing sanitized news. Instead, the Eagle Eye's albatross
appears in the form of neglect.
Where Ifindfault with this semester's Eagle Eye is in its lack
of initiative to write about what the SCC Isn't doing. No one seems
to care that the SCC and other organizations have grown so
removed from the student body that it is now indeed a rare fool
that takes them seriously. No one cares enough to write about it,
at least.
I ask anyone who examines the alienation factor on campus to
read the Eagle Eye and tell me whether or not it has been hard
enough on the SCC.
David, what you are attacking in your own melodramatic way
is indeed a menace; it is the menace of what happens when a
select few have their hands in every pot in town. The few with the
busy hands get so caught up in what they're doing that they lose
their perspective. Sadly, I must agree with you that the SCC involvement of the Eagle Eye hierarchy is preventing them from
putting their talents to work in a more journalistic manner.
What bothers me about the current close relationship of the
newspaper and the student government here is that it is a break in
tradition.
When I think of how long and how hard
old "Eagle Eyers" worked to insure a forum for dissent, I become
disturbed. When I remember how much you've done to develop
this and then see your column abused with noncomprehendable
SICs, I too become a little queezy in the stomach.
Unless the Eagle Eye heirarchy can find someone on their
staff who is removed enough from the SCC to point out its errors, I
have to'recommends that all editorial staff members be prevented
from involvement in the SCC. Also, unless the English
department starts stressing the importance of a seperation of
newspaper and government, I don't see how they can claim to be
teaching future journalists. It is, after all, ignoring the traditional
function of the press.
It almost seems as if extra scripts from "An Enemy of the
People" have been distributed for campus figures to act out
Ibsen's characters. If things don't change soon around here,
David, you'll have to pick up your gauntiet and book us passage to
Norway.

MIKE CIGALA
VARSITY OUTLASTS ALUMNI 34-14
In a duel*-that was closer matched than the score indicated,
the LHS varsity slammed and pounded to emerge the victor of the
Saturday Night Classic. The contest matching the varsity vs the
alumni, was extremely physical while equally sprinkled with
flashy wrestling. The Mat Town festivities started out with a
pre-season preview that got-off the ground, and a national anthem
that did not. Both teams prepared for the showdown.
The first bout ofthe evening saw LHS star, 118 pounder Gary
"Yacky" Uriam, virutally playing with opponent (Alum) Brian
Kuntz to a 15-7 decision. Uriam showed the "Stuff" that made
him a U.S.W.F. National Champion ai:d an Olympic contender.
The 126 pound contest faced senior Sean Ahern against ex
LHS star Cari Lutz. The match began in a cat and mouse game
with both wrestlers being cautions. However, the ex Camden
Catholic (N.J.) Ace, Ahern suddenly outleashed an attack
resulting in two takedowns and an escape. Ahern's strength was
the determining factor as he strongarmed Lutz to a 6-1 win.
This made the duel score 6 to zip in favor of the varsity. The
elated, yet unsatisfied. Haven Fans cheered for more, and that's
exactly what they got. Mike More, varsities' 142 pound "Virginia
Gentleman". Moure pounced Bob Banfill 5-2 with a variety of
classy attacks. Result varsity 9, Alumni 0. With the defeat of
Banfill, it seemed as though the varsity would blow the alumni
right off the mats!
Enter Alumni Rob Johnson at 150. In what proved to be one
ofthe most colorful matches of the night, Johnson wasted no time
and went right on the attack. The crowd was on their feet as the
alumnus escaped and took down the York, Pa. product Paul Rohler
to a 7-1 decision.
The crowd was again set to their heels as the unheraldedL.H.)
frosh Mike Nauman shocked Dave Crowell with an opening
takedown. However, the veteran Crowell proved the more
cunning, reversing the frosh and adding an escape and riding time
for a 4-2 decision.
The alumni comeback rally was then cut short by "Lethal"
Ricky Ware. Ware buzzsawed alumni Doug Conlon with three
takedowns in the first period, added another with an escape. Later
result Ware 9, Conlon 2.
At 167 Guitar Picking Sophomore Jerry Peterman engaged in
battie with ex-teamate and drill partner Mike DeBarbieri. The
"Muscle Match" ended in a 1-1 draw.
As alumnus Donny Adams ran on the mat, cheers could be
heard throughout the "House of Noise". Adams, a crowd favorite
outslicked the game sophomore Austin Shanfelter 6-4.
That set the stage for a classic showdown at 177, Al Fricke
and his arch-rival Hank Hawkins. The bout started off with an
unspectacular 1st period. "Sticky" Fricke then proceeded into his
usual circus pinning act, and decked the alumnus 20 seconds into
the 2nd period.
Frosh 177 pounded Rick Osman outslicked Greg Day to a 9-2
decision.
190 — The most spectacular wrestier of the night had to be
ex-NAIA national champion Frank "Ike" Esenhower. "Ike"
brought back old times as he handed N.J. Frosh Mark Coppola a
6-4 defeat. Esenhower was named the outstanding alumni
wrestling award.
190 II — Tim Thompson blasted Frank Geiger 4-0 and
"super"-heavyweight Greg Koontz put the icing on the cake

playing of light-spirited popular songs. As much as 1 love
the Beaties and Jesus Christ
Superstar, I can't think that
either of them has any place in
a play of such a serious nature.
In scene two of Act Two, the
energy level finally picked up.
Unfortunately, the energy flow
increased a bit too much and
the scene became unrealistic.
In the scene, Peter Stockmann, along with a few others,
incites a crowd to an almost
murderous frenzy so quickly as
to be unrealistic. A few of the
people in the angry mob could
be heard to growl like animals,
which hurt the credibility of
the scene.
I have nothing but praises
for the last act.
Ken
Showman's interesting characterization of Holvastad came
into full effective bloom and
Chris Flynn as Aslasken
seemed to finally get a fairly
firm grasp on his character.
Strunk still fell short of the
meanness so necessary for his
character but he vas considerably more villianous than he
had been at any other time in
the play.
Of course the big difference
in Act Three was Charlie
Charette. It was his act. It
was as though he had been saving all his energy for last act.
He held nothing back and his
anger and frustration flooded
the stage and captivated the
audience. The exchange
between Charette and Book
represented a level of acting
that was unequaled in the
play. Their confrontation very
nearly made the following
action seem anticlimactic. Rick
Kline's masterful handling of
the part of Morten, Dr.
Stockmann's young son, recaptured the intensity of the
Charette/Book exchange and
prevented the play from ending acticlimactically.
The power of the third act
rescued the play from the
ranks of mediocrity and made
the production a very worthwhile one indeed. two acts come close to
realizing their dramatic potential, this production would
have ranked among the very
best shows I have seen at Lock
Haven State in the past year
and a half.
