Congressman Albert Johnson visits campus
By Mike Holter
In the background repr e s e n t a t i v e s of the SCC Executive Committee could be
heard d i s c u s s i n g the matter
of protocol. In the front of
the T.V. lounge a man of
medium stature d r e s s e d in
a gray busine';s suit with a
prominent flag lapel pin made
small talk with two students
seated in the front row.
Looking first at the clock
and then out into the small
group of s t u d e n t s , faculty
and other interested parties
the gentleman questioned,
" I s this all you a r e expecti n g ? " Thus began die open
discussion period with Congressman Al ber t W. Johnson,
Representative from Penns y l v a n i a ' s 23rd D i s t r i c t .
It apathy and distrust
are current bywords with
the American public concerning politicians, the student
body of Lock Haven would
have to be considered almost
100% American. At 3:10 p.m.
on Friday, F e b . 8th, there
were less than 3 0 people
present to hear Mr. Johnson.
Some of those present were
s e e n visibly dozing, while
o t h e r s sat on the edge of
their chairs hoping to get a
question asked.

"SHOULD HAVE BEEN
HERE SOONER"
I'm here on campus today at the invitation of Dr.
Hamblin. He comes to Washington seeking funds.
We
try to h e l p . Wc like him. He
thought perhaps the students
might want to lalk with m e . "
Representative Johnson then
provided the meager audience with his congressional
background.
Both lengthy

and impressive, the data
along with the thoughts of
his current philosophy took
almost one half hour of the
allotted
discussion
iime.
Reflecting on his role as a
member of congress Johnson
s t a t e d "1 should have been
here sooner....but maybe 1
w a s n ' t invited to c o m e . " He
then went on to mention his
one to two questionnarres and
three n e w s l e t t e r s that are
received by residents of his
district.
" T h i s way I can
let the people know what
the issues are, and how 1
feel about t h e m . "
" 1 try

to get home to somewhere
within my district every
weekend. My d i s t r i c t eoveis
eleven counties and is ihe
largest in the s t a l e .
I
leave Washington Tluusdax

going because ot Isek ol

Pennsylvania Student Lobby-A joint effort
by Bill Mahon
The Birth of a Nation
may
have
taken
place
Saturday when representatives from community crdl e g e s , s t a t e owned c o l l e g e s ,
s t a t e related c o l l e g e s , and
private colleges met at Penn
State University. If s u c c e s s ful, that nation could consist
of
the 500,000 college
students in Pennsylvania.
Students from
Penn
S t a t e , Juniata, Wilkes, Allegheny, and approximately
ten other colleges assembled
to lay the foundations for a
student government association which could represent
the interests of every college
student in Pennsylvania. Of
the 200 questionniiires sent
out, only one returned which
was not in favor of the
organization.
The
reason
for
the
relatively small attendance
was
attributed
to
heavy
snowfall and the gasoline
shortage. Several s c h o o l s ,
including Temple University
called the day before to
assure
their full
support
although
they could
not

attend because of one eii^is
or another.
The
major
order ol
b u s i n e s s coniliicted was 1 lie
issuing of a statenienl of
priorities and pressing topics
for discussion in the lulure.
The statenienl is as lidlows:
"Tlie
purp( I'ennsylvunia
Sludeni
Luhhv
shall he to act a.s ii lobbying
body III initiating
and considering passage of legislation advantageous
u> students,
and to serve as a
source
oj information
for
ull
I'eniisylvunia
higher
education institutions
and to
act a.s a liason
between
these
institutions
and the
state
government.
/I second,
bul
also
equally
imporlant
fmrpose
will
he to muiiitain
the
cohesi'\'eness
nf
these
students
as a reciigni zed
viable political
force."
The organization will
not
replace
the
existing
organizations of the National
Student
Lobby,
National
Student A s s o c i a t i o n , and the
Commonwealth
Association

of Sliuleiits. K.itb.-r, it will
supplement them and in most
e a s e s llie P.S.L. will have
more ol a LIII ect effect on
Ihe college sludents of
Pennsylvania.
I'he
group agreed to
niL-el again on Maich 23.
Ihey divided llie stale into
len sections so that sehools
present could contact some
of the 188 institutions of
higher education in their
region. Joe t{uculano, of
Lock Iiaven Stale, agreed to
conlacl
schools
in
the
Norlhern
lier
and North
Central regions of the state .
Several
people,
not
presently students, appeared
at the meeting in an advisory
capacity
including
Doug
Dows, former student goverrh
ment president at LHSC. Mr.
Dows will be starting his
new job as lobbyist for the
Commonwealth Association
of Students in Harrisburg
today.
Also attending the meeting from Lock Haven was
student government president
Rich DeBernardo.

Eaglettes lose to Federal City 57-51
by George Morrison
On a cold February 9ih,
two teams met in Thomas
Field House. The purpose of
the meeting was a basketball
game between Lock Haveii
State
and
Federal
Citv
College. The outcome, after
a hard fought battle found
Federal City on top 57-51.
T h e score b e l i e s the
action, however, as Lock
Haven was ahead by 17
at one point.

EAGLES TAKE EARLY
LEAD
Federal City started out
c a r e l e s s l y due to the well
executed press put on by
Lock Haven. The E a g l e s on
the other hand started out
very well and the score was
17-7 with close to three
minutes gone. Then Lock
Haven seemed to relax with
their early lead and at the
close of the first period
found themselves leading by
two instead of ten, 17-15.
Lock Haven scored first
again opening the second
period of play. The E a g l e s
went into a more controlled
game and started running up
the score. Federal City was
hindered by their excessive
fouling and trailed by 17
with 4:49 to go in the half.
F . C . C . then changed to a
man to man defense which
must have helped because
Lock Haven led by 13 points
at halftime, with the score
36-23.
Federal City had a total
of 18 personal fouls while
Lock Haven collected only 8.
High scorers in the first
half for the Eaglettes were
Debbie Schlegel and Barb
Collins with 8 and 7 respectively.
LEAD NARROWS
In the second half. F e d
eral City started its climb
back to regaining the lead
with 6 unanswered points.
Federal City narrowed the
Eaglette's
lead a s
they
pulled to within five and
then two with thiee minutes
left in the period.
The Lock Haven defense
continued to be rattled with
1:58 to play in the third

quarter as F . C . C . pulled to
within one point. Debbie
Schlegel kept l.ock Hiven
out ill front though with
offensive and defensive plav
ill the closing moments of
the third quarter. Bul then
b'.C.C. tied the score with
27 seconds to go and took
the lead with a bucket al the
ten second mark. Slill the
girls didn't give up as Barb
Soil bit a buzzer basket lo
tie the score al 43-all.
The fourth quarter saw
fast moving and agressive
action with both teams trailing b a s k e t s . Yet, Federal's
continuing
occurence of
fouls liindered their plav.
Two of their starting plavcrs
fouled out but their strong
bench did the job and kept
the game moving. With 3:43
remaining in the game the
score was 51-4 9 in favor of
