Indiantown Gap hosts annual
the 2004 presidential election
brigade Ranger Challenge
Students have varying views on 2004 election

Stephanie LaSota
Staff Reporter
Politics is a word that is easier to pronounce than it is to
understand. Many college students are tired of hearing about
the 2004 presidential election
and listening to debates.
"It's all my roommate ever
talks about," said one female
Lock Haven University student.
"I don't even want to think
about it." This reaction came
from several other students as
well; all ofthem were not registered to vote in the November
election.

did not sway them.
With all thc rules, regulations, contracts and legalities
involved in the preparation and
execution ofthe debates, one has
to wonder how much water they
actually hold. In fact, it appears
that many Americans focused
more on the personalities of the
candidates rather than the issues
at hand.
Jason Fitzgerald, senior
political science major, says that
he already had his mind made up
to vote for Bush before the
debates. Fitzgerald admits he
was disappointed with Bush's
performance in the first debate,
but says he definitely did better

"Kerry said numerous times
that he had a plan, but never
went any further on explaining
what those plans are," said
Hackney.
Christian Dwyer, vice-president of the LHU College
Republicans, agreed that Kerry
needs to go into detail about his
"plan."
"He hasn't elaborated on his
plan. I only hear him say go to
JohnKerry.com," said Dwyer.
He said that a presidential candidate should tell the American
people about his plan right at
the moment, not send them to a
website to read about it.
Hughes predicts that if
Kerry is president the country's
deficit will decrease, there will
be better health care coverage
and people will be able to work
for a livable wage not $5.15 an
hour.
Hughes encourages students
to study each candidate's platform. Hackney agrees that students should be presented with

Treasurer and Responsible
Officer of the Young Men's
Democratic
Club
in
Williamsport, Sandy Hughes,
said two key values of a
Democrat are assisting the community and helping to better the
life of the working class.
"We cannot afford Bush for
four more years," said Hughes.
"I have union people here that
haven't had jobs for two years
because there are no jobs.
Things need to change."
She said that many young
people are Republican because
they have the perception that
they need to be. Hughes said
that most of them will change
their minds when they graduate
from college and join the work
force and see that Democratic
policies are for supporting the
working class.
"The oil companies are
making the money, not the
working class people," said

-

Debates and personality determine vote
in the second and third.

"As far as the 'style side'
goes, I think Kerry won. But on
the 'substantive' side, Bush
won," said Fitzgerald.
"I was even more impressed
with Cheney's performance during the Vice Presidential
debate," said Fitzgerald. He
adds that Edwards also handled
himself well, but it was clear to
him that Cheney had won.
Sara Widdop, senior psychology major, feels much differently. Widdop, who registered to vote just three months
ago. plans on voting for Kerry.
"I felt like I was a bad citizen
for not being registered to vote.
So one day at work, a co-worker
handed me a registration form
and I did it," said Widdop. "I am
voting for Kerry because Bush
makes me angry because of the
war."
While Widdop did not watch
the debates, she feels confident
in her decision to put her vote of

confidence in Kerry.
"I am not really into politics
but 1 know a lot of people wh(
don't like some of the thing:
Bush says and I know a lot o

Widdop.

This week LHU is sending a message to students to take care when consuming alcohol as well as to make appropriate decisions when facing those
who are under the influence. This car, located on Russell lawn, demonstrates the dangers of drinking and driiving. Driving when drunk is a serious
issue, and unfortunately a common occurence. This display works as a
deterent to those who may think about having a drink and then getting
behind the wheel. Hopefully students take the message to heart.

Shortage of flu vaccine limits amount of shots available
Steph LaSota
Staff Reporter
In accordance with guidelines issued by thc Center of
Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC). Susquehanna Health
System (SHS) has modified its
plan for distributing the influenza vaccine to area healthcare
workers and community members, as a result of the national
vaccine shortage, according to a
press release issued Wednesday,
October 13 by SHS.
The
Medicines
and
Healthcare Products Regulatory
Agency in the United Kingdom
has
Chiron
suspended
Corporation's license to manufacture Fluvirin, the influenza
vaccine that the United States
normally receives from the
Subsequently, this causes a
reduction in half thc expected
supply of flu shots that will be
available in the United States
for the 2004-2005 influenza season.
The new plan ensures that
those individuals at highest risk

are first to be offered the vaccine.
"Wc have received 100 percent of our requested vaccine,"
says George A. Manchester,
M.D., Executive Vice President
of Medical Affairs/CMO at
SHS. "Thc vaccine will be initially offered to SHS employees
who provide direct patient care
and to volunteers who work in
those patient care areas. The
Health System will be working
with area physicians to provide
vaccine for their high-risk
patients. Concerned individuals
should contact their physician to
see if they meet thc high-risk
criteria and to inquire about
receiving the vaccine."
According to CDC guidelines people at high risk for
influenza include all children
six to 23 months old, adults
aged 65 years and older, persons
aged two to 64 years with
underlying chronic medical conditions, all women who will be
pregnant during the influenza
season, residents of nursing
homes and long-term care facilities, children aged six months
to 18 years on chronic aspirin

therapy, health care workers
involved in direct patient care
and out-of-home caregivers and
household contacts of children
aged below six months.
People in priority groups
whose regular health-care
provider does not have thc vaccine available are encouraged to
search locally for the vaccine.
Intranasally administered, live,
attenuated influenza vaccine, if
available, should be encouraged
for healthy people between thc
ages of five and 49 and are not
pregnant, including health-care
workers (except those who care
for severely immunocompromised patients in special care
units) and persons caring for
children aged below six months.
Certain children aged below
nine years require two doses of
the vaccine if they have not
been previously vaccinated. All
children at high risk for complications from influenza, including those aged 23 months to six,
who presently need a vaccination, should be vaccinated with
a first or second dose, depending on vaccination status.
However, doses should not be

held in reserve to ensure that
two doses will be available.
Instead,
available vaccine
should be used to vaccinate people in priority groups on a firstcome, first-serve basis.
People who are not included
one
of thc priority groups
in
should be informed about thc
urgent vaccine supply situation
and asked to forgo or defer vaccination. Certain people should
not receive thc influenza vaccine before talking with their
doctor. These people are those
with severe allergy to hen's eggs
and persons who previously had
onset of Guillain-Barre syndrome during the six weeks
after receiving the influenza
vaccine.
Dr. Manchester said that
SHS has a concern for the
regional community and they
will continue to work with area
healthcare providers to prioritize distribution of the available
vaccine.
The following SHS sponsored public clinics have been
cancelled: Hub's Health Care.

Clinic. Muncy Valley Hospital.

Influenza, commonly called
"thc flu," is caused by the
influenza virus, which infects
the respiratory tract. Unlike
other viral respiratory infections, like thc common cold, the
flu causes severe illness and
life-threatening complications
in many people. Symptoms of
the flu include fever, headache,
extreme tiredness, dry cough,
sore throat, runny or stuffy nose
and muscle aches. Children can
have additional gastrointestinal
symptoms such as nausea, vomiting and diarrhea, but these
symptoms are uncommon in
adults.
The main way that influenza
viruses are spread is from person to person in respiratory
droplets of coughs and sneezes.

You can still protect yourself
from thc flu even if you are not
included in a priority group for
the flu season this year, or if no
vaccines arc available. The
CDC suggests avoiding close
contact with people who are
sick and keeping your distance
from others when you arc sick
to avoid the spreading of germs.
If possible, stay home from
work, school and errands when
you are sick. You will help prevent others from catching your
illness. Covering your mouth
and nose with a tissue or your
hand when you sneeze or cough
and washing your hands will
help prevent the spreading of
germs. Avoid touching your
eyes, nose or mouth because it
is an easy way for germs to be
spread. Other good habits, such
as getting plenty of sleep,
engaging in physical activity,
managing stress, drinking water
and eating plenty of fruits and
vegetables will help you stay
health all winter and all year.

Remember what you did
this Homecoming weekend?
Daniella De Luca
Opinion Editor
Homecoming weekend was
certainly a time to remember for
many LHU students. There were
fireworks, a victorious football
game, a surge in school spirit,
the crowning of the king and
queen...and parties. Lots of
them.

Some party-goers, however,
don't remember the details of it.
These were the people who let
alcohol consume the three (or
for some, four) days of the
weekend festivities.
Constant reminders were
available to students during
Homecoming weekend telling
students not to drink excessively
and if they did decide to drink,
to do so responsibly. One such
example was a mangled car on
the Russell lawn with cardboard
tombstones surrounding it. On
each stone, there was a fact
about drunk driving. "1400,"
adorned one of the stones.
That's how many college kids
die from alcohol-related accidents each year. That's too
many, especially when a large
number of them are under-aged.
There are many other
options for the weekend besides
going out and getting drunk.

People complain that there's

nothing to do at night besides
drink and party. This is not the
case. They arc just not opening
their minds to new, alternate
activities. Or maybe, they just
don't want to try anything different from what they are used to
doing.
On Friday night, Trauma, a
social dance club-type venue
was held from 9:00 p.m. to 2.00
a.m. above Thc Scoop downtown. Industrial, electronic and
dark alternative dance music
was played and events like this
happen at least once a month
downtown or in State College.
(See the related article in this
issue's Features section.) It is a
good place to converse with
other people, dance or just to
observe what others are doing.
Drinking is not permitted at
events like this one geared for
all ages. If you surround yourself with people who aren't
drinking but arc still having a
good time, then soon you'll see
that there is no reason to drink
excessively, if at all.
Another alcohol-free activity
is the obligatory late-night trip
to Wal Mart or other locations in
town such as Blockbuster.
Dunkin' Donuts, Sheetz, The
Roxy, and the bowling alley just
to name a few. The possibilities

If you're short on cash for
any of these activities, that's not
a problem. You don't necessarily
need money to have a good time
either. Write a letter to a friend,
make a mix tape or CD, chat on
thc phone or internet, or color a

picture. I highly recommend finger painting since that was one
of my weekend activities, and
my friends and I all found it
extremely relaxing. Sometimes
you just have to travel back to
childhood when things were
simple and when all it took to
have fun was some paint, paper
and fingertips.
And the best part about fingerpainting you ask? Being able
to remember what you did, and
getting a nifty, little piece of artwork when you were all done.
The best part about drinking?
Well, it might feel cool for a little while, but those effects arc
only temporary. Just remember
that you're the one who has to
live with the actions you take
while intoxicated, that is to say.

Dear Editor,
As a student at Lock Haven
University, I have had the
opportunity to live in this area
throughout my college career.
I have seen jobs lost and higher
education funding cut, but in
the past year I have also seen
more jobs coming back to this
area and a plan to increase
higher education
funding
among state system schools.
Many of the issues that deal
directly with this area, the 76th
district, are decided in part by
your local representative.
Your local representative,
in my eyes, is more important
than the President. Take a
minute and think about this,
your local representative is far
more accessible then the
President of the United States.
Your local representative is
your link to the President, and
in the upcoming election, this
area gets to choose from
Democrat Mike Hanna or
Republican John Krupa to act
as your link.
Hanna has represented the
76th district for the past 14
years. His opponent Krupa is
in the fifth year of his second
six-year term as a supervisor in
Pike Creek Township, located
in eastern Clinton County.
Both men have similar agendas. Each candidate agrees that
higher
education should

receive more funding, and that
job growth is essential to this
area, especially manufacturing
jobs. The difference in each of
these men is how they plan to
achieve the goals that they
have set forth.
Hanna has been endorsing
money for higher education
since he became your local representative, seven terms ago.
He would like to sec more
funding given to stale owned
schools such as Lock Haven
University. Once the state
owned schools receive funding,
then the state should distribute
other funding to state related
schools, such as Penn State
University and Temple.
Krupa was very quick to
point the finger at Hanna stating that, higher education funding has been cut in the state of
Pennsylvania. Perhaps this is
true, but Krupa did not once
mention a plan to fix this evident problem. Krupa can complain, and blame a different
person each day ofthe week for
our current tuition situation,
but without a solution to
reverse the problem, he is just
as bad as the government contributing to the problem.
Hanna has been involved in
the state legislation for a long
time and has made critical ties
with other legislators. He has
the knowledge and ability to
further the 76th district he so

proudly represents. In fact
Hanna's important ties have
brought manufacturing jobs
back to this area.
First Quality Enterprises
was offered a total of four areas
to move to, they choose this
area. Hanna believes it has
very much to do with the quality of the work force. He is
endorsed by a number of business/builder friendly companies.
Krupa. the same opponent
that ran against Hanna unsuccessfully in the last election,
will argue that once the tax free
zone these businesses are
offered expires, the businesses
thai occupy these areas will
expire too.
Hanna disagrees with this
stating that, the technology
being put into new industry
such
First
as
Quality
Enterprises, is far too advanced
and expensive to move once
the tax free zone expires.
On November 2nd vote for
more then the next President,
vote for the future ofyour community. Hanna has the experience, knowledge, and contacts
to accomplish his goals. Krupa
has the ability, information,
and facts to complain.

total in the tens of thousands Though this is the position
and even greater are those from both sides, little assistance besides humanitarian aid

has been given as of late. With
the United States being the
leading donor of aid with 200
million dollars, it seems as
though the world is awaiting
the United States and their
movement for action to follow
through and help.
However, this new issue of
the Arab on Muslim genocide
is the main focus, another force
that has been afoot in the
region still resonates. An age
old civil war with the government has pitted non-Muslims
against the Arabs in the south
ofthe country. Though this has
began to diminish and close to
peace, its shadow still looms as
a warning to this new rebellion
of what can occur if this goes
on to long; for that age old war
in the past two decades, two
million people have lost their

lives and the pain remains.
This question of help however lays not in right or wrong
but in the cost and benefit of
going in. With most American
troops stationed elsewhere in
the world, it would be difficult
to send a large enough force
into. Not only the numbers for
an offensive in Sudan is needed
but conditions as well.
Currently Sudan is finishing a
rainy season in which most
roads become in accessible.
Finally to add to all the complications, there still remains
the difficulty of swaying the
public's opinion to believing
that the action is necessary. So
although this is a humanitarian
catastrophe, the relief wilt have
to stay humanitarian for a time;
that is until our military has the
capacity to help.

Feel Your Boobies (I'm serious!)
Freshman fights back in
response to last week's letter
Dear Editor.
After reading the letter to
the editor from last week I
felt it was my duty to
respond. I was appalled by
thc childish manner a senior
used to accuse freshmen of
being immature. I felt personally offended being a freshman myself.
Everyone has to be a
freshman at one point or
another. Let me remind those
who think that they somehow
never were a freshman, and
that it is not the title that
makes them immature. Being
a freshman myself I have
attended plenty of speakers. I
am not the type to walk out of
a meeting unless I ultimately
have to. I question the writer
of the last article on his views
Did you know that the
people talking during the
speeches were definitely
freshmen? Did you know thc
people walking out were
freshmen? Did you ask all
three of the people with cell
phones ringing if they were
freshmen? For a journalism
major your article was not
based on facts at all. Did the
people have "freshmen" written on them?
I was in a meeting the
other day where a person's
phone rang, and they were in
fact not a freshman. Let's be
in college and stop stereotyping the freshmen just because
you're a senior. Freshmen are
people and they shouldn't be
judged strictly on that title. I

Where's the money, Cheney?
Dear Editor,
Where's the money? When
Dick Cheney was asked that
question when he was the CEO
of Halliburton, the answer was
Iraq. Despite UN Sanctions put
in place in 1990, which forbade
Halliburton (and everyone else)
from trading with Iraq,
Halliburton managed to do
S23.8 million of business contracts with the country. These
deals included oil-industry
equipment and services.
They went through loopholes, using subsidiaries from
other countries, Dresser Rand
and Ingersoll-Dresser Pump.
They provided Iraq with parts to
repair their oil fields. When
totaled, the value of these contracts for parts and equipment
far exceeded the amount ofbusiness done with Iraq by all other
American companies combined.
So, where's the money?
Maybe it's not just in Iraq. Iran
is one ofthe countries listed in
Bush's "axis of evil," countries
that allegedly support terrorism.
It is illegal for US companies to
So,
do business in Iran.
Halliburton went and set up a
subsidiary in the Cayman
Islands, Halliburton Products
and Services. "60 Minutes" did
a report on this company and
found out that it is just a forwarding address to Houston,
Texas.
However, the little forwarding-address-that-could managed
to do $80,000,000 worth ofbusiness with Iran, accounting for
1% of the Halliburton's total
$16.3 billion worth of revenue
in 2003. That's pretty impressive for a company without a
building or employees.
However, in 2003, Cheney

admit that she got off pretty
lucky, in the end. After all the
treatments were over, she
bounced back almost 100 percent, and now she's her old self

was Vice President ofthe United
States, and had nothing to do
with Halliburton at that time,
right? Maybe. When Cheney
retired from Halliburton to pursue the Vice-Presidency in 2000,
he got a hefty retirement package: a $20 million one.
Since becoming the Vice
President. Halliburton has continued to pay Cheney $150,000
a year in deferred compensation.
He also has 433.000 company
stock options, which will
increase in value as the company's stock rises. That has led the
Research
Congressional
Service, a nonpartisan group
that prepares reports for
Congress, to label Cheney's
Halliburton ties a "potential conflict ofinterest."
So what can a Vice President
do to help out a multi-billion
dollar company? When Cheney
entered office, Halliburton was
awarded the LOGCAP (Logistic
Civil Augmentation Program)
contract. This was created when
Cheney was defense secretary
under George H. Bush. It was
awarded to Halliburton then for
five years. Halliburton lost the
contract after Cheney became
CEO of the company. After he
became VP, the length of the
contract was doubled and
awarded to Halliburton again.
But that's not all. Even
before the United States began
to drop depleted uranium cluster
bombs on Iraq, the Pentagon had
secretly set up a deal with
Halliburton subsidiary Kellogg,
Brown & Root. It was a twoyear, no bid contract that
charged KBR with putting out
oil well fires and to fix any other
war damage to the country's oil
industry. The contract is totaled
at $7 billion.

Cheney has denied any
involvement in the Pentagon's
decision. However, according
to Time Magazine, an internal
email from the Pentagon said
that the deal was coordinated
with the Vice President's office.
Before the contract was awarded, Lewis "Scooter" Libby was
present at a briefing ofthe White
House staff about the contract.
Libby is Cheney's top aide.
Coincidence, perhaps. But
Halliburton has repeatedly overcharged its customers (which
would be the United States,
which would be your tax dollars). Reports by several independent accounting firms have
shown that Halliburton has committed a variety ofabuses during
its contract with the US to support the troops in Iraq.
Thc General Accounting
Office found that Halliburton's
ability to perform in Iraq is lacking. They cited "ineffective
planning, inadequate cost control, insufficient training of contract management officials, and
a pattern ofrecurring problems
with controlling costs, meeting
schedules, documenting purchases, and overseeing subcontractors" as problems that
Halliburton is having fulfilling
its contract in Iraq. In addition,
GAO auditor, Stuart Bowan has
written a report alleging that
Halliburton cannot account for
millions of dollars worth ofgovernment property in Iraq.
So why does the United
States continue to spend billions
of taxpayer dollars a year on a
company that is not fulfilling its
contracts? Maybe it does pay to
have friends in high places.

With a 5-1 home victory
over Monmouth University, the
field hockey team captured the
Northeast Conference Regular
Season Title Sunday.
Junior Nikki Sweger was the
offensive hero for the Haven,
recording a hat trick. Melissa
Stubblefield was the star in net
as she picked up her 15th win of
the season.
Sweger started things off,
making her way down the field,
with no problem. She fired thc
ball right into the cage within
the first 10 minutes. Not shortly
after, the Hawks came fighting
back to even up the score.
Kellie Kulina didn't want to
let the Hawks get too comfortable with the tie, taking a
rebound and tapping it in the
goal. But wait that wasn't it.
Sweger came along once again

and deflected a shot in from
Katie Stewartz raising the score
to 3-1. Sweger and thc Eagles
were on a roll and weren't ready
to relax.
For her third goal,
Sweger took a pass from
Courtney Hughes with nearly 30
seconds to go in the half raising
the score to 4-1. Ending the victory for the Eagles was freshman
Renee Kemmcrer, who took
advantage and scored on a
penalty stroke, making the final
score 5-1.
Melissa Stubblefield, along
with the defense also helped
lead the team to another victory
and the conference title.
consistent,
"The most
strongest part of our team is our
back
four (defense) and
Melissa." said Head Coach Pat
Rudy. "The defense has saved
us in so many games this year.
Melissa, especially, in the net
has made some great saves that

no one else in the conference
nave made."
On Friday the Haven hosted
their biggest challenge of the
season in Rider University.
Both teams entered the contest
with undefeated conference

marks.

Courtney Hughes came out
shining, scoring both Haven
goals in thc game.

Although Rider got on the
board first, it gave the Eagles
time to get hyped up and ready
to fire back. Hughes and Kulina
teamed up and capitalized for
the Eagles scoring twice and
taking another win for the
Eagles.
Melissa Stubblefield made
five saves for the Haven along
with the defense, helping to lead
thc team to victory.
The final two contests on the
Bald Eagles' schedule are away
games as they try to finish the
season with an impressive 19-1
season mark.

Wolverine pride shines through on the Lock Haven Football Team
Doug Spatafore

Sports Reporter

Kew'n Carver/Eagle Eye

Woodland Hills gradates Rafael Smith, Charles Cannon, Mike Nesby, and Maurice Walker are key
members on this year's football team. Smith and Walker are explosive stars on the offensive side of the
ball, while Cannon and Nesby take care of business on the defense.

The lights go out, as the
Woodland High School football
players gather in the tunnel
before they take thc field. As
they hear the roaring yells from
the thousands of fans, each player slaps a small sign above the
runnel doorway which reads "To
achieve you must endure."
That is Woodland Hills
Wolverine pride, and there is
plenty of it on the Bald Eagles
football team which includes
four Woodland Hill graduates.
The Wolverines are a perennial high school football powerhouse in Western Pennsylvania.
They have captured the Western
Pennsylvania Interscholastic
Athletic
League
Quad-A
Championship in 1996, 1999,
2001, and 2002. Coach George
Novak has been thc only coach
at Woodland Hills, and each
year he sends more and more
players on to play at the college

The Wolverines currently
playing at LHU are senior linebacker Charles Cannon, sophomore defensive back Mike
Nesby, sophomore wide receiver Rafael Smith, and senior running back Maurice Walker.
It is very unique to find four
high school teammates on the
same collegiate team; so what is
it that brings them to Lock
Haven and allows them to standout at the college level? It all
centers on Wolverine Pride.
When you play at Woodland
Hills, you have to know how to
play good football. It's that simple because they play some of
the best high school teams anywhere. The players experience a
unique training regime for the
high school level. It's like a full
time job. Wolverine players
spend the entire spring and summer working out. During school
you can find them lifting

Coach Russell is optimistic

Russell, the team will be back

"We have the talent to win

be conservative. This team has
been successful because they
haven't been afraid to go alter

Congratulations to the Field Hockey team on clinching Ihc Notheast Conference title. Not bad for your
first year in Division I. I can only imagine how they
would have pounded the PSAC if they were still there.
Good luck in the last two games, and good luck to the
seniors that will leave the team in upcoming weeks.
Thegrcatcast football player of all-time has been
traded. Jerry Rice will now be a member of the
Seattle Seahawks. A lot of people arc saying that he
just retire, but he is the best ever. If he can still play then people
just let him be.
Ricky Williams is set to meet with NFL officials to sec if he may be reinstated
the league to play for thc Miami Dolphins. All his former teammates want
an apology. When Williams left he was
to be suspended by thc league
violation of substance abuse after failing his third drug test. A lot was
at the fact that he quit and said he didn't need football. I was angry at
for only one reason, he let his teammates down. He could have left in the

his shoes. Other people were mad because they said how could you just
My thoughts were that nobody gets mad at the owners when they do
honor a contract and they cut a player. It was the same thing in this case
just cut his team!
Who is the best QB in the NFL? In my mind four guys are separating themfor a lot of different reasons. Manning has so many weapons it is like
your poison. If you cover one guy another one will beat you. And he

The field hockey team has earned more than respect this season. They have
earned thc 2004 regular season title in the Northeastern Conference. The
team has dominated league play and broke a conference record tie with Rider
by defeating them 2-1 on Friday. Thc Lock Haven field hockey team boasts a
7-0 league mark and an overall record of 17-1 in their first season of
Division I play. It is an injustice to Lock Haven University and the field hockey team that they can't participate in postseason play. I strongly believe they
could have gone all the way. To seniors Melissa Stubblefield, Katie Stewart/.,
Erin Weibley, and Kellie Kulina, you girls paved the way to success on thc
Division I level for future hockey team members and you went out on top.
Congrats to Coach Pat Rudy and her team.
...Shame, shame, shame to UAB assistant coach Tom Donahoc. Thc Defensive
Line coach was charged with possession of marijuana and has pleaded innocent. The NCAA may need to evaluate and possibly test coaches for drug use
as well as the athletes. Now athletic administrators will have to educate not
only student athletes but also coaches on the use of marijuana. It is a shame
that someone in this role model, coaching position has made a decision that
will not only affect his institution and team, but his reputation for the rest of
his life. Donahoc resigned from his coaching post Tuesday still maintaining
his innocence.
...Thanks to the people who came out to support thc football team in hard
fought overtime victory Saturday at Jack Stadium. The atmosphere was the
best it has been in a long time. The student body definitely responded to the
challenge laid to them by Sports Editor Kevin Carver. It was like there was a
12th man on the field because it was very loud at times especially being out
there on defense as I was. Thanks for the support and school spirit and let's
keep it up during all athletic events held here at Lock Haven University.
...It will be a "quiet" Saturday in college football with only two games of
ranked teams. #11 Michigan travels to Indiana to take on #12 Purdue. Also
in thc Big 12, #9 Texas travels down the road to Lovett to face the high powered offense of #24 Texas Tech. Sapp has Wake
Forest in an upset special of thc week beating #5

Bands battle it out for cash and fame
Tim Pratt
Staff Reporter
In the movie "Back

to

the

Future," Marty McFly and his
band, The Pinheads, took the
stage in a local gymnasium as
part of a Battle of the Bands

competition. If they had won,
they would have had the dubious
honor of playing at the school
dance. This was 1985 and if you
didn't have big hair and a jean
jacket, you had no chance of
making it to the big-show, four
judges sat in the middle of the
gymnasium floor, took notes and
tried to determine if The
Pinheads had the right stuff.
They were ultimately told that
they were "too darn loud."
Shawn Lacey and the Urban
Connection (whose members
include Lacey on guitar and lead
vocals. Joe Gruber on drums,
and Shawn Carr on bass) won
Lock Haven's own Battle of the
Bands Wednesday, Oct. 13, on
Russell lawn as part of the
week-long homecoming celebration.
The 10-member homecoming court served as the judging
panel ofthe two-hour long festival that sent sound waves ricocheting offthe buildings around

campus. The three competing
bands. Dead liyes Open, The
Buzz, and Shawn l.aeey and the
Urban Connection, took the
stage in front ofRussell Hall for

the chance to win the projected
$225 first prize. Second place
was scheduled to receive $ 110
and third place would pick up
$75.

The judging panel was grading on overall performance,
energy, crowd response, sound
quality and originality, among
other things.
"I like there to be a fresh
sound. If they sound like somebody else, I can go buy their
CD," said panelist and eventual
I lomecoming King Eddie Dove.
Dead Kyes Open opened the
show and was greeted by a lukewarm response from the audience of their fellow students, as
their metal-style didn't seem to
sit too well with anyone other
than the few who laughingly
started their own mosh pit. They
played a host of original songs
before closing out their set by
covering "Crazy Train" by Ozzy
Osboume.
The next band to take the
stage was the runner-up. The
Buzz, which featured Andy
Yearick, Shawn Lacey, Chris

Miller and Dave Cantwell on
drums. Lead singer Yearick
loosened up the crowd with his
Scottish accent and then broke
into "Cold Hard Bitch" by Jet.
Among other songs on their set
list, they covered Radiohead and
Weezer by playing "Creep" and
"Say It Aint So," respectively.
Between artists, acoustic
performers took the stage and
HAC" representatives threw tree
t-shirls into the crowd. So when
Shawn Lacey and the Urban
Connection finally took the
stage, the audience was all riled
up. Lacey urged the crowd closer to the stage and the trio
played a few originals before
breaking into covers of Oasis'
"Wonderwall," Tom Petty's
Girl,"
"American
Lynyrd
Skynyrd's
"Sweet
Home
Alabama," and Pearl Jam's
"Better Man."
As the 2004 edition of the
Battle of the Bands concluded
and people looked forward to
next year's battle, bright orange
leaves lined the sidewalks and
we were once again reminded of
the great Marty McFly. "Why
don't you make like a tree and
leave?" could be heard whispering through the wind and the
irony was lost on us all.

Lock Haven nightlife turned "Trauma"tic on Friday night
Daniclla De Luca
Opinion Editor
As I stepped under the black
light, I caught a glimpse of
myself in the mirrors surrounding the room. Everything had an
awesome glow to it; even my
eyes seemed to sparkle as the
beat driven music pushed itself
into every corner ofthe club.
Trauma, an alternative dance
club above The Scoop downtown gave those in attendance a
unique industrial-techno musical
experience on Friday night.
This was the third time that
Trauma was brought to Lock
Haven since last spring semester. It is a similar production to
{Catharsis}which is held at
State College, also once a

month.

The
next
{Catharsis}will be held on the
Friday night before Halloween,
Oct. 29, in the Tall Shiva
Hookah Lounge on 224 West
College Ave.
"Trauma gave me a chance
to listen to music that I wouldn't
listen to normally," said junior
Jessica Stokes who attended
Trauma for her first time on
Friday. "The more that 1 listened
to the music, the more comfortable I felt, and everyone there
was very interesting to observe."
DJs
included
Cogen,
darkFIN, hexon, Modus, and |/|/,
each presenting a unique style of
dark alternative and industrial
music for the evening. Some of
the music regularly played at
Trauma and {Ca thar sis}include
are but not limited to groups like

Suicide Commando, The Cure,
VNV Nation, Skinny Puppy,

:Wumpscut:, and Stabbing
Westward. DJs strive to keep the
music danceable, and requests
are taken.
The main sponsor of these
events is DesusProject, a group
founded in 2001 in central
Pennsylvania who work toward
expanding musical tastes in the
area. Thirty-four people attended Trauma on Friday, adding
four more to the crowd turnout
from the Trauma hosted last
month. Only 20 of the students
attended
Lock
Haven
University. The rest were from
State College or other surrounding areas.
Upon entering, 1 was pulled
out onto the dance floor by a few
friends, and right away I noticed

thata lot more people had shown
up, and it was a big difference
from when I went last semester.
There were more people, but
still not nearly enough according
to one of the DJs, Brendon
Costello (Modus).
"I often hear my friends
complain that there is nothing to
do in Lock Haven," he said.
"They view possibilities for
entertainment virtually futile
and decide to go home for the
weekend. It's that simple
Darwinian theory: 'Use it or lose
it,1 and if people don't attend
Trauma it's not going to last.".
Jonathan Sywulak, a senior,
who is a regular attendee of
DesusProject events said, "I
attend because stomping wildly
is an acceptable dance there, and
that the only dancing I'm good

I like it because that kind of
experience can rarely be found
in Lock Haven."
People should take advantage of events like Trauma,
because it is a new experience
every time, and something to do
on a Friday night.
No one should complain
about having a boring weekend
as long as they seize the opporat.
