Spangler named PUB director
By Jeanne Ruczhak
StaffReporter
Expanding Parson's Union Building
(PUB) is one of several goals of the new
PUB director Leiand C. Spangler.
Spangler was hired as director of the
PUB by the Student Cooperative Council
(SCC) and Lock Haven University.
In his new position, Spangler will oversee
the offices and activities held in the PUB.
He will also work with the SCC to organize
student activities.
One of Spangler's goals as PUB director
is to expand the building. He said that this •
idea will involve a lot of planning, and he
would like to see students form a committee
to help plan the expansion.
Spangler said he wants to make the PUB
into a place where the students want to go.
The expansion should also give the
commuter students who frequent the PUB a
"change of atmosphere," he said.
Spangler would like to see students take
advantage of the PUB facilities and of the
planned student activities.
"I'm a strong advocate of student
activities because it improves the retention
rate of our new students," said Spangler.
Spangler's short term goals include
getting to know the student body, the
organizations, and the goals and
responsibilities of the students. He would
like to see the students "have a more
efficient use of their organization."

EDITORIAL
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
New staff to head Eagle Eye
Dean welcomes students to campus
Just as the first robin marks the start of Spring, so do the rains of the monsoon
season signify the beginning of the Fall semester at good 'ole LHU. Welcome
back!
In keeping with the traditions of old, the first editioral will be an introduction of
our staff and of things to look forward to in coming editions.
With graduation taking a toll on our staff, this year brings some familiar names,
but most are budding journalists ready to take command.
Heading up our news staff is veteran Sue Berger and last year's star reporter
Kate Kinney. With Sue's experience and Kate's energy, these two should
provide us with some interesting reading.
In the sports department we have returning letterman Bill Alexander and
ex-Keystone Junior College sports editor Dan Hanson. He and Dan are sure to
bring us complete play-by-play action all season long.
Our features editor Maureen Campbell is back for a return appearance. By
initiating new columns and specials, her pages will now cover both, campus and
local events.
Whether it be a match, a protest, or an art exhibit, our new ^ o t o editor Becky
Boyce will be on the scene. Becky and her staff are young, but ready to take over
where last year's crew left off.
•--... .^
Some of the many things to look fonward to are as follows: periodicaro8\ of local and national news, special Homecoming and Eagle Eye Anniversary
issues, and in-depth coverage of Greek happenings.
As newly appointed editor, I have to fill some very big shoes. It is my hope that
the changes being added will be accepted and enjoyed. If they are not, letters to
the editor are still invited.
The beginning of every academic year is
always filled with excitement and great
anticipation. This year, we have a larger
number of students living on campus and
taking classes than ever before. The
faculty, staff and administration welcome
all students, new and returning, to what we
hope will be one of our very best to date.
Our student body continues to diversify
with the number of international visitors and
guests and an aging population of students
attending the University. As a university,
there are always many different ideas being
expressed and learned about in classes
and in other learning environments. Since
arriving at Lock Haven, I have found it to be
a place where ideas are exchanged and
accepted openly.
As a university, we can begin to learn
many things from each other just by being
involved in all of the activities that are
available on a daily basis. Wouldn't it be
great if Lock Haven University were to
become famous for its commitment to
supporting all student efforts in the

Field Hockey team squeezes by Syracuse U. 1-0 on Sunday
By Chris Kardoley
Sports Reporter
At the 16:54 mark of the first half, the
Lady Eagle's Paula Stephens scored the
only goal needed to defeat Syracuse
Sunday.
Stephens goal came when sophomore
Tera Egolf passed the ball from the right
side. Stephens, stationed a few feet away
from the goal, deflected it in.
Lady Eagle goalie Stacey Giorgio had 12
saves, while Syracuse goalie Michelle Dion
stopped 16.
With :49 seconds left to play in Friday's
contest, Doobie Caprio scored her 18th
career goal to win 1-0 over Hofstra
University.
When senior Kim Hasson fired from in
front, Caprio deflected her shot over
Hofstra's goalie Christine Cunneen.
The Haven's first loss came on Thursday
afternoon against Penn State.
Penn State's shots on goal outnumbered
LHU 32-13 pushing Penn State to a 2-1
victory.
Doobie Caprio scored the only goal off a
rebound for the Lady Eagles, and Penn
State junior Lisa Bervinchak and freshman
Lisa Malinich made the difference for the
Lions.
The Lady Eagles exploded in their
season opener defeating Toledo 4-1 on
September 7.
The Haven's scoring contributers were
Tami Flowers, Doobie Caprio, Jill LaPointe,
and Paula Stephens.
"I feel we're pretty competitive. We have
a few hard games, such as the University of
Connecticut and the University of New
Hampshire. As long as we play our game,
we should have no problem," said senior
captain Kim Hasson.

Eagle gridders defeat Muskingum 20-19
By Bill Alexander
Sports Editor
With only two games completed in the
1987 season, the Bald Eagle football team
has already tied last year's win record, and
Head Coach Tom Jones is feeling good.
"We played two games on the road and
we needed to win at least one game. It was
a total team effort on Saturday," said Jones
of the 20-19 victory over Muskingum.
The Bald Eagles scored first as
sophomore Darrell Chavis ran in from seven
yards out. Fred Dyroff's PAT gave tha
Haven a 7-0 lead.
Muskingum tied the score late in the first
half on a two yard run by Ken Wright and
B.J. Chasteen's extra point.
Lock Haven fell behind by nine in the
third quarter as Chasteen kicked a 28-yard
field goal and Wright scored from one yard
out. The extra point failed and Muskingum
led 16-7.
"Down 16-7 in the third quarter, we could
have folded and been blown out," said
Jones. "But the guys pulled together and
came from behind."
Chavis took It upon himself to lead the
comeback as he raced 73-yards to paydirt.
Dyroff's PAT closed the gap to two points
going into the fourth quarter.
Muskingum extended their lead to 19-14
on a 20-yard field goal by Chasteen with
8:50 left in the game.
The Bald Eagles captured the victory as
Chavis scored his third TD of the game from
two yards out. The two point conversion
failed.
Chavis was the Eagles leading rusher
with 144 yards on 20 carries and frosh Mil Rice added 52 yards on 10 rushes.
Eagle QB Pat Cahill completed 5-of-13
passes for 38 yards and was intercepted
once.
The "87 season started on September 5
with a 5-0 loss to Concord.
Concord took a 3-0 halftime lead as Eric
Stargill kicked a 39-yard field goal with no
time left on the clock.
The final scoring came with 13:24 left ir
the game as Concord's Rod Bradley tackl d
Eagle QB Mark Purdy in the end ione for a
safety.
Chavis lead the Eagle rushing attack with
21 yards on 17 carries. Cahill went O-for-11
passing and had two interceptions.
The Bald Eagles home opener is this
Saturday as the Bloomsburg Huskies come
to Hubert Jack Stadium for a 2 p.m.
mafch-up.
"It's going to be a very emotional game
because we have everything to gain and
nothing to lose," said Jones. "We just have
to line up and play them."
If you were to look at the rosters for the
men's and women's cross country teams
this year, chances are you wouldn't
recognize all the names. But, in a matter of
weeks these names may be the talk of the
conference.
Scottish exchange student Peter
Fleming, and freshman Debbie Valansky
have turned in very impressive runs in early
meets, giving men's coach Kurt Smith and
women's coach Leroy Straley an optimistic
view of the remaining season.
So far this season the Bald Eagle
harriers are 0-1 with a close 26-30 loss to
Clarion and a sixth place finish in the
Millersville Invitational.
In both meets Fleming has recorded first
place finishes. Against Clarion on Saturday
he stopped once to tie his shoe, and again
to adjust his knee wrap, but finished first in
26:18. He missed the course record by :26
seconds.
Coach Straley's harriers were hit hard by
the loss of veterans Pam Noll, Sue Kutz,
and Kathy Steib. Figuring in these spots
are freshmen Debbie Valansky, and
sophmore transfer Julie Grasser.
Junior co-captains Lorie Jamison and
Joanne Pautz will give LHU a strong base
along with letterwinners Jill Baumgartner,
Julie Nelson, and Katrina Heebner.
Although the Lady Eagles have yet to run
a duel meet (Clarion did not field a team),
Straley is optimistic about the team's
possibilities.
"In the conference we should do better
than last year, and in duel meets we should
definetly do better than last year," said
Straley.
Both team's will take on a tough field of
teams from New York and Pennsylvania at
the Mansfield Invitational this Saturday at
1:30 p.m.
Gannon edges the Haven 2-1
By Andy Devilbiss
Sports Reporter
It looked as if the Bald Eagle soccer
team had tied the score at 2-2, but an
offsides call took away the goal and the
game as Gannon University escaped with a
2-1 victory Saturday.
The Haven's only score came at the
43:10 mark in the first half on a goal by
freshman fonvard Brian Williamson.
The Bald Eagle's record now stands at
2-2-1, with wins over New Haven and
Cheyney, a bss to West Virginia Wesleyan
and a 0-0 tie with Oakland.
"I'm pleased with their performance to
this point because we're a young team. I'm
surprised that we're playing this well this
soon," said Head Coach Lenny Long.
"We're doing all the right things. Now
we're just waiting for some lucky breaks,"
Long added.
_^^^^^^^^^
After losing six players from last year's
team. Long added four freshmen to his
starting line-up. They are as follows: Craig
Shale, Gary Ross, Brian Williamson, Rk:k
Merriman, and Brandice College transfer
Tibor Kobolak.
Returning starters from last year's team
include senior Rob Eaton, junior Andrew
Monteith, and sophomores Steve Eagleton
and Chris Kelly.
After a succesful 1986 season,
sophomore Warren Westcoat returns to his
starting position as goalkeeper.
A strong defense will be a key factor in
the team's success this season as well as
being "more technfcally sound," according
to Long.
The Bald Eagles will try to improve their
record when they travel to Bloomsburg
today for a 3 p.m. match.
"They're better than they were last year,
said Long. "It's going to be a tough game."

Orchestra offered for one credit
By John P. Elder
Staff Reporter
Students can perform in the newly
formed University Chamber Orchestra for
music credit this semester.
Under the direction of LHU String
Instrument Instructor Gary Guth, the new
orchestra is a one credit performing
ensemble course.
According to Guth, the new ensemble is
an outgrowth of the former University String
Ensemble.
"The primary purpose of the orchestra is
to offer music majors and other qualified
musicians an opportunity to make use of
their talents and abilities in an ensemble
group," said Guth.
In addition to the demand for string
players, the new ensemble wiil have a need
for wind players.
Guth said that all students are welcome
to inquire about the new ensemble and that
participation will be based on available
openings.
"There will be a need for woodwind and
brass instruments as well as a special need
for all string instruments," said Guth.
He said although the chamber orchestra
iS new at the university, a University Community Orchestra, under the direction
of Robert D. Lynch, has been at LHU for 20
years.
"While the community orchestra is not
intended as a means for LHU students to
gain music credit, it has served an
important function for both the community
and the University for many years," said
Guth.
He also said that since the University
Chamber Orchestra and Community
Orchestra rehearse on different days,
members can participate in either or both
ensembles.
Junior Helen Haglich who is playing flute
in the orchestra said, "\'m glad to see that
this kind of music is being performed at
Lock Haven University, and I think that with
our hard work we will be able to present an
impressive program by the end of the
semester."
Guth said that there is a possibility that
students who wish to add University
Chamber Orchestra to their schedules
should be able to have the $5 drop/add fee
waived.

Spangler named PUB director
By Jeanne Ruczhak
StaffReporter
Expanding Parson's Union Building
(PUB) is one of several goals of the new
PUB director Leiand C. Spangler.
Spangler was hired as director of the
PUB by the Student Cooperative Council
(SCC) and Lock Haven University.
In his new position, Spangler will oversee
the offices and activities held in the PUB.
He will also work with the SCC to organize
student activities.
One of Spangler's goals as PUB director
is to expand the building. He said that this •
idea will involve a lot of planning, and he
would like to see students form a committee
to help plan the expansion.
Spangler said he wants to make the PUB
into a place where the students want to go.
The expansion should also give the
commuter students who frequent the PUB a
"change of atmosphere," he said.
Spangler would like to see students take
advantage of the PUB facilities and of the
planned student activities.
"I'm a strong advocate of student
activities because it improves the retention
rate of our new students," said Spangler.
Spangler's short term goals include
getting to know the student body, the
organizations, and the goals and
responsibilities of the students. He would
like to see the students "have a more
efficient use of their organization."

EDITORIAL
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
New staff to head Eagle Eye
Dean welcomes students to campus
Just as the first robin marks the start of Spring, so do the rains of the monsoon
season signify the beginning of the Fall semester at good 'ole LHU. Welcome
back!
In keeping with the traditions of old, the first editioral will be an introduction of
our staff and of things to look forward to in coming editions.
With graduation taking a toll on our staff, this year brings some familiar names,
but most are budding journalists ready to take command.
Heading up our news staff is veteran Sue Berger and last year's star reporter
Kate Kinney. With Sue's experience and Kate's energy, these two should
provide us with some interesting reading.
In the sports department we have returning letterman Bill Alexander and
ex-Keystone Junior College sports editor Dan Hanson. He and Dan are sure to
bring us complete play-by-play action all season long.
Our features editor Maureen Campbell is back for a return appearance. By
initiating new columns and specials, her pages will now cover both, campus and
local events.
Whether it be a match, a protest, or an art exhibit, our new ^ o t o editor Becky
Boyce will be on the scene. Becky and her staff are young, but ready to take over
where last year's crew left off.
•--... .^
Some of the many things to look fonward to are as follows: periodicaro8\ of local and national news, special Homecoming and Eagle Eye Anniversary
issues, and in-depth coverage of Greek happenings.
As newly appointed editor, I have to fill some very big shoes. It is my hope that
the changes being added will be accepted and enjoyed. If they are not, letters to
the editor are still invited.
The beginning of every academic year is
always filled with excitement and great
anticipation. This year, we have a larger
number of students living on campus and
taking classes than ever before. The
faculty, staff and administration welcome
all students, new and returning, to what we
hope will be one of our very best to date.
Our student body continues to diversify
with the number of international visitors and
guests and an aging population of students
attending the University. As a university,
there are always many different ideas being
expressed and learned about in classes
and in other learning environments. Since
arriving at Lock Haven, I have found it to be
a place where ideas are exchanged and
accepted openly.
As a university, we can begin to learn
many things from each other just by being
involved in all of the activities that are
available on a daily basis. Wouldn't it be
great if Lock Haven University were to
become famous for its commitment to
supporting all student efforts in the

Field Hockey team squeezes by Syracuse U. 1-0 on Sunday
By Chris Kardoley
Sports Reporter
At the 16:54 mark of the first half, the
Lady Eagle's Paula Stephens scored the
only goal needed to defeat Syracuse
Sunday.
Stephens goal came when sophomore
Tera Egolf passed the ball from the right
side. Stephens, stationed a few feet away
from the goal, deflected it in.
Lady Eagle goalie Stacey Giorgio had 12
saves, while Syracuse goalie Michelle Dion
stopped 16.
With :49 seconds left to play in Friday's
contest, Doobie Caprio scored her 18th
career goal to win 1-0 over Hofstra
University.
When senior Kim Hasson fired from in
front, Caprio deflected her shot over
Hofstra's goalie Christine Cunneen.
The Haven's first loss came on Thursday
afternoon against Penn State.
Penn State's shots on goal outnumbered
LHU 32-13 pushing Penn State to a 2-1
victory.
Doobie Caprio scored the only goal off a
rebound for the Lady Eagles, and Penn
State junior Lisa Bervinchak and freshman
Lisa Malinich made the difference for the
Lions.
The Lady Eagles exploded in their
season opener defeating Toledo 4-1 on
September 7.
The Haven's scoring contributers were
Tami Flowers, Doobie Caprio, Jill LaPointe,
and Paula Stephens.
"I feel we're pretty competitive. We have
a few hard games, such as the University of
Connecticut and the University of New
Hampshire. As long as we play our game,
we should have no problem," said senior
captain Kim Hasson.

Eagle gridders defeat Muskingum 20-19
By Bill Alexander
Sports Editor
With only two games completed in the
1987 season, the Bald Eagle football team
has already tied last year's win record, and
Head Coach Tom Jones is feeling good.
"We played two games on the road and
we needed to win at least one game. It was
a total team effort on Saturday," said Jones
of the 20-19 victory over Muskingum.
The Bald Eagles scored first as
sophomore Darrell Chavis ran in from seven
yards out. Fred Dyroff's PAT gave tha
Haven a 7-0 lead.
Muskingum tied the score late in the first
half on a two yard run by Ken Wright and
B.J. Chasteen's extra point.
Lock Haven fell behind by nine in the
third quarter as Chasteen kicked a 28-yard
field goal and Wright scored from one yard
out. The extra point failed and Muskingum
led 16-7.
"Down 16-7 in the third quarter, we could
have folded and been blown out," said
Jones. "But the guys pulled together and
came from behind."
Chavis took It upon himself to lead the
comeback as he raced 73-yards to paydirt.
Dyroff's PAT closed the gap to two points
going into the fourth quarter.
Muskingum extended their lead to 19-14
on a 20-yard field goal by Chasteen with
8:50 left in the game.
The Bald Eagles captured the victory as
Chavis scored his third TD of the game from
two yards out. The two point conversion
failed.
Chavis was the Eagles leading rusher
with 144 yards on 20 carries and frosh Mil Rice added 52 yards on 10 rushes.
Eagle QB Pat Cahill completed 5-of-13
passes for 38 yards and was intercepted
once.
The "87 season started on September 5
with a 5-0 loss to Concord.
Concord took a 3-0 halftime lead as Eric
Stargill kicked a 39-yard field goal with no
time left on the clock.
The final scoring came with 13:24 left ir
the game as Concord's Rod Bradley tackl d
Eagle QB Mark Purdy in the end ione for a
safety.
Chavis lead the Eagle rushing attack with
21 yards on 17 carries. Cahill went O-for-11
passing and had two interceptions.
The Bald Eagles home opener is this
Saturday as the Bloomsburg Huskies come
to Hubert Jack Stadium for a 2 p.m.
mafch-up.
"It's going to be a very emotional game
because we have everything to gain and
nothing to lose," said Jones. "We just have
to line up and play them."
If you were to look at the rosters for the
men's and women's cross country teams
this year, chances are you wouldn't
recognize all the names. But, in a matter of
weeks these names may be the talk of the
conference.
Scottish exchange student Peter
Fleming, and freshman Debbie Valansky
have turned in very impressive runs in early
meets, giving men's coach Kurt Smith and
women's coach Leroy Straley an optimistic
view of the remaining season.
So far this season the Bald Eagle
harriers are 0-1 with a close 26-30 loss to
Clarion and a sixth place finish in the
Millersville Invitational.
In both meets Fleming has recorded first
place finishes. Against Clarion on Saturday
he stopped once to tie his shoe, and again
to adjust his knee wrap, but finished first in
26:18. He missed the course record by :26
seconds.
Coach Straley's harriers were hit hard by
the loss of veterans Pam Noll, Sue Kutz,
and Kathy Steib. Figuring in these spots
are freshmen Debbie Valansky, and
sophmore transfer Julie Grasser.
Junior co-captains Lorie Jamison and
Joanne Pautz will give LHU a strong base
along with letterwinners Jill Baumgartner,
Julie Nelson, and Katrina Heebner.
Although the Lady Eagles have yet to run
a duel meet (Clarion did not field a team),
Straley is optimistic about the team's
possibilities.
"In the conference we should do better
than last year, and in duel meets we should
definetly do better than last year," said
Straley.
Both team's will take on a tough field of
teams from New York and Pennsylvania at
the Mansfield Invitational this Saturday at
1:30 p.m.
Gannon edges the Haven 2-1
By Andy Devilbiss
Sports Reporter
It looked as if the Bald Eagle soccer
team had tied the score at 2-2, but an
offsides call took away the goal and the
game as Gannon University escaped with a
2-1 victory Saturday.
The Haven's only score came at the
43:10 mark in the first half on a goal by
freshman fonvard Brian Williamson.
The Bald Eagle's record now stands at
2-2-1, with wins over New Haven and
Cheyney, a bss to West Virginia Wesleyan
and a 0-0 tie with Oakland.
"I'm pleased with their performance to
this point because we're a young team. I'm
surprised that we're playing this well this
soon," said Head Coach Lenny Long.
"We're doing all the right things. Now
we're just waiting for some lucky breaks,"
Long added.
_^^^^^^^^^
After losing six players from last year's
team. Long added four freshmen to his
starting line-up. They are as follows: Craig
Shale, Gary Ross, Brian Williamson, Rk:k
Merriman, and Brandice College transfer
Tibor Kobolak.
Returning starters from last year's team
include senior Rob Eaton, junior Andrew
Monteith, and sophomores Steve Eagleton
and Chris Kelly.
After a succesful 1986 season,
sophomore Warren Westcoat returns to his
starting position as goalkeeper.
A strong defense will be a key factor in
the team's success this season as well as
being "more technfcally sound," according
to Long.
The Bald Eagles will try to improve their
record when they travel to Bloomsburg
today for a 3 p.m. match.
"They're better than they were last year,
said Long. "It's going to be a tough game."

Orchestra offered for one credit
By John P. Elder
Staff Reporter
Students can perform in the newly
formed University Chamber Orchestra for
music credit this semester.
Under the direction of LHU String
Instrument Instructor Gary Guth, the new
orchestra is a one credit performing
ensemble course.
According to Guth, the new ensemble is
an outgrowth of the former University String
Ensemble.
"The primary purpose of the orchestra is
to offer music majors and other qualified
musicians an opportunity to make use of
their talents and abilities in an ensemble
group," said Guth.
In addition to the demand for string
players, the new ensemble wiil have a need
for wind players.
Guth said that all students are welcome
to inquire about the new ensemble and that
participation will be based on available
openings.
"There will be a need for woodwind and
brass instruments as well as a special need
for all string instruments," said Guth.
He said although the chamber orchestra
iS new at the university, a University Community Orchestra, under the direction
of Robert D. Lynch, has been at LHU for 20
years.
"While the community orchestra is not
intended as a means for LHU students to
gain music credit, it has served an
important function for both the community
and the University for many years," said
Guth.
He also said that since the University
Chamber Orchestra and Community
Orchestra rehearse on different days,
members can participate in either or both
ensembles.
Junior Helen Haglich who is playing flute
in the orchestra said, "\'m glad to see that
this kind of music is being performed at
Lock Haven University, and I think that with
our hard work we will be able to present an
impressive program by the end of the
semester."
Guth said that there is a possibility that
students who wish to add University
Chamber Orchestra to their schedules
should be able to have the $5 drop/add fee
waived.
