BOYCOTT

Open Meeting Held to Discuss Budget Cut
Inaleo.uate funding and
what to do about it was the
main topic of last night's
open meeting which w-.'.s
attended by st idents, faculty
and admin'strators in Ulmer
Planetarium.
One of the main points
made by administrators was
that state colleges are in a
fiscal bind because they are
approximately
$8,000,000
short of money needed in
their current budgets.
Numerous
suggestions
to help alleviate the current
shortage of fuids were made
by the administration. Tne
best solution, which is very
unlikely would be to receive
more money from Harrisburg.
The administrators w.vnt on
to list other alternatives
such as more faculty p.oductivity, not hiring additioial faculty o: replacing
retiring professors, dismissing faculty members, cutting
off services to students
such as funding the library
and cuttiig off faculty travel.
"We are trying to ride
the middle of the road, not

going to extremes," commented Dr. Robinson, Vice
President in charge of aca
demic affairs. Hs also sta ted
that he recognized the serious
overload in the Physical
Education Department. Therefore the administration has
"gont! out on a limb" and
hired an additional women
staff member for the Physical Education Dapartment.
She will be hired for the
Spring 1974 term to teach
six sections and coach a
women's lacrosse team.
D;. Robinson also stated
that there should be avenues
open for student input, channels through which student
ideas can be passed on.
HELP!
Mr. Powell, a member
of AP SCUF-PALTE the
faculty bargaining unit, also
spoke to students.
Powell noted that every,
one seemed to be enemies
of the state colleges. The
SCUD • board
recently
requested college presidents
to retrench (fire) faculty
members beca tse of severe
financial crisis. This r e -

trenchme.it is to begin with
first and second year faculty
members and extend to tenured faculty members based
on seniority. Powell said
that there are approximatly
20 first and second year
faculty members at LHS, and
four or five are in the Physical Education Departmint.
Dr. Milliken p-oceeded
to compare the student/
teacher ratio at LHS, with
those at other state colleges.
(Cheyney 14.6 students per
faculty! Mansfield
(3,500
students) 17.2, LHS (2568)
18.08, West Chester (10,000)
18.15.) However, Dr. Milliken
was not able to break down
these figures into departmental student/faculty ratios.
ATHLETIC FIELDS
The condition of the
athleti: fields was also
discussed at the meeting.
Contjary to popular belief,
the ifields are seeded twice
a year at a cost of $11,000
which includes airaiting,
seeding, and fertilizing, bat
constant use of the fields
necessitates constant care.

And Now The Envelope Please
by Neile
The festivities of a
Homecoming weekend are
highlighted by the Homecoming football game. At 2
p.m. the teams face each
other eye-to-eye, head-tohead, nose-to-nose, shouldertorshoulder,
tooth-to-tooth
for the traditional batti:.
After 30 minutes of p'.ysical
combat, these grass-stained
mud-smeared football players
trudge off the field to make
way for another kind of
combat.
Folbwing a fanfare by
the Edinboro State College

band, the 1973 Lock Haven
State College Homecoming
Court enters the field on the
fifty yard line. At the sound
of a faceless, booming
voice from the Press Box,
the five little lovelies
traipse down the 50 yard
line like Barbie dolls in a
Fifth Avenue dress shop.
Properly
attired
in
current fall fashion, the
little lovelies are escorted
to the home side for the
crowning. Finally the longawaited
moment
arrives.
Once again the Edinboro

band provides the fans with
a fanfare and the new Homecoming Queen is announced.
Admiring a bouquet of
long-stemmed roi.es, Karen
Rothermel
accepted
the
Homecoming crown from last
year's Queen, Sue Frey.
Surrounded by Karen
Benton,
Patti
Dengler,
Georgette Rolley, and Chris
Schleiker, Miss Rothermel
provided some pause for
reflection—should the women
students elect a Homecoming
King to share in the festivities?

Severa' things might be
done to correct problems
facing the use of athletic
fields. Less use, which
would hi nearly impossible
would be one solution. Another answer would be new
fields, but unfortunatly tliere
are no flat areas .avaiable
near the college, and artificial turf is financially
unconceivable.
LOWERED STANDARDS
Dr. Williamson, acting
dean of admissions, Jiscussed
why admission requirements
had been lowered for the
present yaar.
He explained, because
of the need to mairitain enrollment while applications
were dropping, that it was
decided that students in the
third and fourth fifths of their
high school graduating classes would be considered for
acceptance. Howevei, these
studeni 1 would be placed in
a specii' program. They
would have to attent summer
school and be allowed to
carry only a limited amount
of credits per semester.

Globetrotters Clown for Overflow Crowe
by Joe Savroik
Can the Harlem Globetrotters lose a basketball
game?
An overflow crowd at
Thomas Fieldhouse Sunday
was convinced that the
answer is no. The Magicians
of Basketball ea.sily laugiied
their way past a huge New
York National team 85-80.
Led by the hunorous
antics of Hubert " G e e s e "
Aisbie, the 'Trotters exhibited
a
light-hearted
cohesiveness which began
with the famed Globetrotter
circle preceding '.he game.
Ausbie took special
delight in meddling with the
fans.
However, he was
turned down by at least four
girls in requests to dance
with him to the tune of
"Sweet Georgia Brown". Ail
walked off the court, including a tiny three-year-old
the size of a basketball.
Ausbie found a pair of
eyeglasses perched on the
face of a youngster, and
decided that they just might
be the answer to his lack of
scoring punch. Unfortunately,
he found that the glasses
were as effective as a
blindfold.
"Geese"
discovered
the potency of potato chips
as a 'egitimate offensive
weapon. Tie secret is to
distract the opposing player
by offering him a potato
chip. Al- he enjoys the treat.

you score a basket.
Ausbie
demonstrated
the easiest method of blocking a shot—climb the rim of
the basket. He displayed
his practical value to the
team by sinking a 40-foot
hook shot.
Marques
Haynes
is
regarded as the best dribbler
in the world. He proved the
legality of his recognition
with several displays of
tricky dribbling maneuvers.
He also converted a basket
by bouncing the ball off his
face.
The Globetrotters aimed
many of their needles toward
the referee. They were
particularly amused by his
skin head. When the ref
requested a ba.iketball to
begin the game, Ausbie
indicated the top of his own
head
and replied, ''You
already have one."
Tie 'Trotters used the
referee's head for a number
of things ranging from a
mi ror to a backboard.
The Globies conveaed
to football tactics to add to
their scoring punch. However, an attempted midcourt field goal was wide to
the right.
The Globetrotters were
accompanied by seme entertainers for halftime. There
were three halftime performances.
The first was a tightrope performance by the
Dynamic Dimile. The second

act was an exhibition by
juggler Nino Santos of Spain.
The third group, the Orlandos from Mexico performed
springboard
and
balance
strategies.
All three groups drew
awe from the spectators who
rewarded
the
performers
with rousing ovations. Halftime was indeed a show in
it.se If.
Before the start of the
game, two lifesize dolls
were wheeled onto center
court. They resembled an
intimate
couple—a
man
wearing a tuxedo, and a
woman with varicose veins
wearing a dazzling gold
dress. They were posed in
a slow-dance position.
Suddenly, to the delight
of the crowd, the dolls
began dancing around thi?

basketball cout, evidently
moving by means of remote
control.
After five minutes of
executing a close dance
routine, the dolls fell apart
and out popped a beautiful
girl in a red swimsuit.
Only
a
Globetrotter
program cou'd produce so
much laughter.
