Students pick ^experience' ticket
by Jennifer Bowes
Eagle Eye News Editor_
Jamie Piraino and Larry Flint were elected the new
Student Cooperative Council (SCC) president and
vice president, and Steph Kline was re-elected treasurer in an election which brought students out to the
polls on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of this
week.
Piraino, current SCC corresponding secretary, won
by a 395-190 margin over Michael Leimbach, his opponent.
Flint posted a 414-171 victory over Joseph P. Harkins, Jr, while Kline won by a 414-174 margin over
Carrie Ahles.
"Students made the best choice they could by voting Piraino, Flint and Kline," Kline said.
All three candidates expressed excitement after
hearing the results.
Piraino said he is looking forward to taking office
and will do "exactly what he promised to do."
His plans, as expressed in last week's debate, are to
develop the new SCC constitution, hit the legislative
front this summer to express concern about proposed
cuts for State System of Higher Education (SSHE)
schools and to make a lawyer available on campus so
that students can obtain legal advice if they desire it.
Piraino stated that he felt Leimbach ran a great
campaign.
"They gave us a good run," said Flint. It was a
"real race" this year with each office being contested,
he added.
Flint said he will continue work with the Judicial
Board, be involved with the Haven Activities Council
(HAC) and be the vice president in charge of the committees. He hoftes to "maintain" things and keep them
running.
Kline plans to restructure the budgeting program
and work with Piraino and Flint to make the SCC
more "student-oriented."
The three also plan to begin publication of an SCC
newsletter which will detail upcoming events.
Piraino wanted to remind students that the SCC will
hold an "open door" policy. Anyone who wishes to
come in to express any kind of concern is welcome.
Douglas Bicket, the current SCC vice president,
said that all the candidates fought a "great battle" and
that he felt the election was run well.
Because each office was contested, Bicket felt this
added an "extra dimension" to the race.

Proposed housing policy strives to make students study harder

Freshmen who start their college life beginning this fall may have to work harder if
they want to live off campus.
According to Vice President for Student
Affairs Linda Koch, the University is considering requiring a higher academic performance for on campus students who wish
to live off campus.
Under the current housing policy, a student is required to have 32 earned credits in
order to live off campus.
Beginning this fall semester, the housing
policy may be "really different," according
to Koch.
The new requirements would include not
only the number of credits a student has
earned, but also the quality of the credits, a
student's GPA.
Under the proposed housing policy,
which is now being reviewed by attorneys,
there are two kinds of requirements students must meet in order to leave on campus housing.
News (pp:l-2)
Groundbreaking ceremonies were held Monday at Jack Stadium to
kick off construction.
(see story page 2)
The policy would require a student to
have 48 credits with a GPA of over 2.0 or
32 credits with GPA of over 3.0 to move
off campus.
This proposed policy would affect incoming students this fall who will sign to
the new housing contract. It will not affect
the students who currently live on campus
because they signed the old housing policy
when they came in, according to Carol Latronica, student life director.
Although the policy has not been "finalized" yet, it will very likely be approved as
the new version soon since it will be effective in the fall 1995 semester, according to
Koch.
"This would be one way to make students start to think seriously about their
grades," Koch said.
According to a report compiled by Louis
Fabian, director of planning and evaluation. University freshmen's academic performance is comparatively lower than that
of students in other grade levels.
The report shows that the cumulative
GPA as of December 1994 for freshmen

students is 2.26 for males and 2.51 for females. Comparatively, male seniors have
an average GPA of 2.76 and female seniors
have an average GPA of 3.00.
"I hofie this policy will help increase
GPA," Koch said.
Koch said there are two kinds of reactions from the students concerning this
change. "Some students are against it but
there are some students who said they
would be more concerned alwut their
grades if there was such a policy."
It is not uncommon for other sister
schools in the State System of Higher Education (SSHE) to require students to have
certain numbers of earned credits tiefore
they move off campus.
For example, Bloomsburg University requires new freshmen to live on campus for
the first two semesters but there is no credit
hour requirement. Mansfield University
has the most strict requirement in terms of
the number of credit hours; all students
with 95 or less credits must live on campus.
No SSHE schools, however, require stu-

dents to maintain a minimum GPA
"Lock Haven would be the first SSHE
school to consider GPA as a requirement,"
said Koch.
Koch said the policy was not the product
of the administration alone but that meetings to discuss the proposed policy involved some of the student body such as
the Residence Hall Association (RHA).
Some fear the proposed policy might result in a decline in enrollment.
Currently 90 to 95 percent of the 1630
person capacity in the residence halls is
filled and 45 percent living there are freshmen. Other percentages of students living
on campus are 30 percent of sophomores,
16 percent of juniors and 9 percent of seniors, according to Koch.
"And we do believe living on campus
does help," said Koch.
"If [they] live on campus, the students
have more opportunity to be involved and
learn how the University works bett6V. By
the time the student leave the dorms, they
will be prepared enough or academically
established," said Koch.

Three main factors which lead to success
in projects as this one are preparation, perspiration and luck, said Dan Weinzierl,
construction manager for district II of
Pennsylvania's Department of General Services. "A lot of people understand that a
partnership such as this has far-reaching effects for the University, the Commonwealth and tht community," he said.

Dr. Tom O'Rourke, representing the

that the project will continue to aid the

Trio to perform today's hottest hits
Settle, an acoustic rock trio, will bring
their sound to the PUB Multi-Purpose
Room on Wednesday, April 19 at 8 p.m.
Headed by Lisette Bellnier, backed by
Brian Fellows and Dave Brooks, the trio
has managed to become one of the most in
demand performers at colleges throughout
the country in the past two years. In 1993,
Settie showcased at the New England and
East Coast National Association for Campus Activities (NACA) Coffeehouse Festivals. In 1994, they shined at the national
NACA conference in Boston resulting in a
national fall tour of 45 colleges.
The fall of 1994 also brought two more
college showcases at the NACA Upper
Midwest and New England Regional Conferences.
Formed in the spring of 1992, Settie performed eight shows at UMASS and six
shows at Amherst College, and now they
are playing to capacity crowds in local
night spots. The trio hails from Amherst,
Massachusetts.
Campus Activities Programming reviews
all concur that this is the act to book and
re-book. With renditions of classic rock
tunes to today's most popular songs, coupled with Bellneir's vocals and stage presence, audiences everywhere are always
asking for more. Settle's debut CD on
Public Records titled Bob Bit the Fisherman was released this past fall. The trio's
first album. No Chedda for Chetta was released on Public Records in 1993.
From blistering renditions of Melissa
Etheridge's "Like the Way I' Do" to the
softer classic "Can't Find My Way Home"
as well as a variety of hits by artists such as
Bonnie Raitt, Indigo Girls, Riki Lee Jones,
Fleetwood Mac, Cariy Simon, Beatles, Jimmy Buffet, Sinatra and many more to see
and hear is to believe. What put places into
hyperdrive, however, are the incredible versions of about half a dozen Janis Joplin
tunes such as "Mercedes Benz," "Bobby
McGee," "Try" and many others.
In addition to these artists, Settie will be
performing music from such performers as
Belly, The Cranberries, Pearl Jam, Jimi
Hendrix, Grateful Dead, Lemonheads, Tom
Petty, Rolling Stones and Eric Clapton.
The trio also has some originals of their
own. A tape of six original songs sold over
500 copies one spring semester and continues to sell well.
While the trio has performed throughout
the country, they have also brought their act
to the area with performances at West Chester and East Stroudsburg Universities.

Japan assault opens door for more atrocities
If the commonly heard saying "the freaks
come out at night" holds any truth at all,
then night has fallen around the world.
Who is it I refer to as the freaks? Take
your pick from the pool of any one of the
hundreds of radical terrorist organizations
from around the planet. Then add to that
the plethora of new-age cults which are
continually surfacing around the globe, and
you should have no problem understanding
to whom I am referring.
I remember a time when it use to be simple to define who the terrorists were and
weren't. The term terrorists at one time
solely referred to the handful of Middle
Eastern radical political organizations bent
on the achievement of their well-publicized
ideologies through death and mayhem.
Now with a sudden surge of apocalyptic
cults and political extremists the term terrorists has become a household word.
What is it that makes these groups so dangerous? If you tuned into the nightly news
at all last week, you wouldn't have to ask.
Japan, the country which just two months
ago was struck by a great earthquake, was
recently assailed by yet another disaster.
This catastrophe, however, was far from
natural: Sarin, a nerve gas, was released in
five subway cars during morning rush hour
in Tokyo, killing ten and sickening thousands of others.
Standing accused of this atrocity is a cult
known as Aum Shinrikyo (Aum Supreme
Truth), headed by the charismatic and demented guru, Shoko Asahara. The allega-
tions came after the discovery by police of
vast quantities of toxic chemical at the cult
compound, with many of the chemicals being constituent components of sarin.
If these allegations prove to be true, the
sheer dementia of this cult would cast a sinister shadow over the recent barbecue at
Wako; and we all know the extent of the
madness rooted in the Branch Davidian
group formerly headed by David Koresh.
The big difference between these two radical religious groups is that Koresh and his
followers posed little threat to the public at
large.
Shoko (which I believe is Japanese for
"wacko") and his followers pose a very real
threat to the nation of Japan. Some reports
indicate that enough chemical agents were
found at the compound to wage a war
against the Japanese nation! This has taken
the madness of terrorism to new heights.
For decades, even the most radical of terrorist organizations have curtailed their killing; imposing a certain amount of restraint
on themselves. It has always been obvious
that these groups have had access to chemical and biological warfare agents and simply chose not to employ them.
Now that the "ethical barrier" of not using these agents in attacks has been shattered by whatever party may be responsible
for the Tokyo assault, it has become only a
matter of time until other terrorist organizations begin to use the techniques so readily
available to them. What will we as a nation do when that time comes when these
attacks find their way to the doorstep of the
"land of the free and the home of the
brave?" More than likely the country will
form a government task force to "further
discuss the issue" or send a United Nations
peace-keeping force to have tea with the
terrorists and discuss how we can accommodate their needs.
Whatever the case may be, the recent attack in Tokyo by Shoko Asahara and his
flock has expanded the overall threat by all
terrorist organizations and radical cults to a
level of epic proportions that governments
around the world will find difficult to halt.

Big Hair moving from Jersey to the music charts
by Matt Walsh
Eagle Eye Music Critic
As I stated last week, the amount of
great, new material being released right
now is phenomenal. I just have no time to
listen to all the great stuff that's been infiltrating the WLHU offices.
Last week I reviewed a well-known band,
and this week I will be going back to my
ordinary self and reviewing a great new
band I'm almost positive you haven't heard
before.
It is unfortunate the music you hear on
commercial radio/MTV tends to be so
bland all the time. What happens is that
one label signs a new innovative band, they
become pwpular, then every other record label signs any band that sounds remotely
like that band. This is why we end up
swimming in a sea of musical mediocrity.
Here are some examples: The Breeders'
popularity spawned Veruca Salt. Hell, the
whole Seattle "grunge" thing brought us
eight zillion "grunge" bands. Bush being
the most recent one on the rise.
The problem is record labels try gaining
profits on "what's big" at the moment,
where the average person would rather listen to the band that made it big in the first
place. Luckily for us, an occasional good,
original band makes its way on a major label, or as I always find myself doing, we
can resort to finding our music on an independent label.
One of the new bands which has quickly
caught my ear is a band called Big Hair,
who has recently released its debut album.
The Pickle Farm (Energy Records). Describing Big Hair is quite difficult. With a
name like that, you'd probably expect a
glam-rock, '80s cheese metal band like Poison, but that's certainly not the case.
Take a punk band, throw in an exceptional funk-style bass player whose talents rank
with Flea of The Red Hot Chili Peppers
and Les Claypool of Primus. Throw in a
little '70s progressive rock feel, some '90s
heavy thrash, and a little Helmet-ish
crunch. Oh yeah, don't forget to throw in a
fiddle player. Add all this music to really
bizarre, corny, and hilarious lyrics, and you
kind of get the gist of Big Hair. This is
definitely not your ordinary band.
these different styles of music and untraditional instruments is very odd sounding, but
is mighty impressive.
Notable cuts include "Potty Mouth,"
"Barney Wasn't," "Stoned Ant," "Spooge,"
and the sure-to-be hit single "Poop Salad
Sandwich." Also included is the story of
how a kid's dad gets smoked like a bong by
' ' ' ' ' ' ^ ^ r , -. , M '"piig Bjg Hair In
My Closet," and
five minute
hidden track of
absolute
nonsense (but fun
nonsense!).
One of the
things I like
most about this
band is that despite the fact that
they are very talented musicians,
they haven't let it
go
to
their
heads. They're
in it just for fun,
and this is reflected in their
lyrics.
The lyrics are
unfortunately
not printed in the
liner notes, as
they write "The
lyrics on this album are dumb,
therefore, they
are not printed.
If you can actually figure them out, rest assured, you're dumb too." Gotta love a band
with a warped sense of humor.
I really wish I could explain the sound of
Big Hair to you, but sometimes a band
comes along, and words just aren't enough
to describe them. What does this mean?
Easy. GET IT!! Call up some lonely
AMiMMJ
Musically this album is intense. We've
become so accustomed to thinking that a
fiddle is only a country music instrument
that we don't really realize how well it fits
with other styles of music. The musicianship is very tight, and the bass player is extremely impressive (he is listed in the liner
notes as "That Tod Guy"). The result of all
WLHU DJ and bug the hell out of them to
play this. Yes, it's this odd and this good.
This is definitely a must for those of you
into bands such as Primus.
As I stated earlier, there are tons of great
releases out and many soon to come out.
Keep a look out for new releases from
White Zombie, Gorefest, Orange 9mm,
Deicide, Quicksand, and the comeback of
one of the all-time greatest bands. King
Crimson. Maybe one of these will be next
week's review, but then again, with all the
great releases coming out, who knows what
will pop up. Stay tuned.

Ladies score two wins
Lacrosse
by Robin Moyer Jr.
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_
Despite its early season troubles and a
number of one-point losses, the LHU
lacrosse team seems to have turned things
around by winning a close game against
Millersville on Wednesday.
With the first three games being decided
by one point and all in the opponent's favor,
the Lady Eagles found themselves in an
early season hole.
They dropped their first three games to
Washington and Lee, Bucknell and Ithaca.
"In our first three games we played well,
Volley ers take
tournament
by Suzanne Shultz
Eagle Eye Sports Editor_
Last Saturday the Lady Eagles volleyball team went into their tournament with
confidence and came out with a win.
The team won four matches in order to
advance to the finals and win the tournament.
LHU faced a pool containing top teams
like Mercy Hurst College, Slippery Rock
University, and a team consisting of
Edinboro University all-star alumni.
After beating all three of those teams,
the Ladies advanced to the semifinals
where they faced California Universtiy.
They won two out of three games and
won the match. The volleyers then again
faced the Edinboro alumni in the finals
and beat them 2-0.
Head Coach Tom Justice .said things
are looking up for the team, and they
have improved tremendously since the
fall.
"I think that we will be an awfully
tough team to beat in the fall," Justice
stated. "We will be one of the teams to
beat — barring injuries."
The team will travel to Europe in May
and June to try and improve their play
even more by taking on some European
teams.
riTME//
but did not finish it," Head Coach Bridget
Roun said.
The Lady Eagles lacrosse team then
bounced back with a decisive victory over
Cortland. They, however, followed that
game with a loss to Bloomsburg in their
first PSAC contest.
From there on out the Lady Eagles have
won two straight.
Roun said that the game on Wednesday
against Millersville was definitely the
turning p)oint of the season.
She said that the offense "came into its
own," the defense was tough and the Lady
Eagles controlled the midfield.
The lacrosse team has gotten solid play
from its goalie, Robin Martin and offensive
threats, Caroline Gillich, Sharon Kreider,
Michelle Burt and Kristen Geissler.
Even though the team is stacked with
solid players, Roun commented that you
cannot win a lacrosse game with one
premier player.
"You need the 12 players on the field to
be playing well in order to come out
victorious."
"One of our strengths this year is
realizing that our goals will be achieved
when we all work together," she said.

Ladies win over Clarion; lose to Ship.
RBIs help Ladies in win
Soltball
by Amy Coles
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter
The Lady Eagles softball team
opened conference play on Saturday
with two impressive wins over
PSAC-West foe Clarion.
Behind an outstanding pitching
performance by junior Jen Geary,
who struck out seven Golden Eagles,
the LHU bats exploded in game one
of the doubleheader.
The Lady Eagles got the scoring
going early, thanks to sophomore
Robin Kumpaitis.
Her one-out single in the second
inning sparked the LHU offense.
After singles by Geary and freshman
Diane
Drumheller,
Kumpaitis
crossed the plate with the Lady
Eagles' first run.
It was a lead the team would not
relinquish.
In the second inning, Kumpaitis
smashed a triple with sophomore
Amy Haris on first base. The hit
resulted in two LHU runs: Harris
came home with
Kumpaitis not far
behind her, thanks to
a Clarion error.
Another Kumpaitis
triple in the fifth, and
a single by senior
pinch hitter Sue Faia
earned the Lady
Eagles a 4-1 victory.
Game two was
even more one-sided
in favor of the Lady
Eagles.
The
offensive
onslaught continued,
en route to a 7-0 win.
Kumpaitis led the
way in this game as
well, with two triples
and
two
RBIs.
Harris, Drumheller,
junior Tiff Amore, and sophomore Roseann
Mogan also drove in runs in the game.
"A lot of the players finally started to hit
in those games," said Head Coach Kim
Lindsey. "And they hit when they needed
to — with runners on base."
The situation was just the opposite on
Monday, however, when the Lady Eagles
traveled to Shippensburg.
LHU was shut out in both games against
the Lady Raiders.
"In those games, we
couldn't

Jamie Piraino and Larry Flint were elected the new
Student Cooperative Council (SCC) president and
vice president, and Steph Kline was re-elected treasurer in an election which brought students out to the
polls on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of this
week.
Piraino, current SCC corresponding secretary, won
by a 395-190 margin over Michael Leimbach, his opponent.
Flint posted a 414-171 victory over Joseph P. Harkins, Jr, while Kline won by a 414-174 margin over
Carrie Ahles.
"Students made the best choice they could by voting Piraino, Flint and Kline," Kline said.
All three candidates expressed excitement after
hearing the results.
Piraino said he is looking forward to taking office
and will do "exactly what he promised to do."
His plans, as expressed in last week's debate, are to
develop the new SCC constitution, hit the legislative
front this summer to express concern about proposed
cuts for State System of Higher Education (SSHE)
schools and to make a lawyer available on campus so
that students can obtain legal advice if they desire it.
Piraino stated that he felt Leimbach ran a great
campaign.
"They gave us a good run," said Flint. It was a
"real race" this year with each office being contested,
he added.
Flint said he will continue work with the Judicial
Board, be involved with the Haven Activities Council
(HAC) and be the vice president in charge of the committees. He hoftes to "maintain" things and keep them
running.
Kline plans to restructure the budgeting program
and work with Piraino and Flint to make the SCC
more "student-oriented."
The three also plan to begin publication of an SCC
newsletter which will detail upcoming events.
Piraino wanted to remind students that the SCC will
hold an "open door" policy. Anyone who wishes to
come in to express any kind of concern is welcome.
Douglas Bicket, the current SCC vice president,
said that all the candidates fought a "great battle" and
that he felt the election was run well.
Because each office was contested, Bicket felt this
added an "extra dimension" to the race.

Proposed housing policy strives to make students study harder

Freshmen who start their college life beginning this fall may have to work harder if
they want to live off campus.
According to Vice President for Student
Affairs Linda Koch, the University is considering requiring a higher academic performance for on campus students who wish
to live off campus.
Under the current housing policy, a student is required to have 32 earned credits in
order to live off campus.
Beginning this fall semester, the housing
policy may be "really different," according
to Koch.
The new requirements would include not
only the number of credits a student has
earned, but also the quality of the credits, a
student's GPA.
Under the proposed housing policy,
which is now being reviewed by attorneys,
there are two kinds of requirements students must meet in order to leave on campus housing.
News (pp:l-2)
Groundbreaking ceremonies were held Monday at Jack Stadium to
kick off construction.
(see story page 2)
The policy would require a student to
have 48 credits with a GPA of over 2.0 or
32 credits with GPA of over 3.0 to move
off campus.
This proposed policy would affect incoming students this fall who will sign to
the new housing contract. It will not affect
the students who currently live on campus
because they signed the old housing policy
when they came in, according to Carol Latronica, student life director.
Although the policy has not been "finalized" yet, it will very likely be approved as
the new version soon since it will be effective in the fall 1995 semester, according to
Koch.
"This would be one way to make students start to think seriously about their
grades," Koch said.
According to a report compiled by Louis
Fabian, director of planning and evaluation. University freshmen's academic performance is comparatively lower than that
of students in other grade levels.
The report shows that the cumulative
GPA as of December 1994 for freshmen

students is 2.26 for males and 2.51 for females. Comparatively, male seniors have
an average GPA of 2.76 and female seniors
have an average GPA of 3.00.
"I hofie this policy will help increase
GPA," Koch said.
Koch said there are two kinds of reactions from the students concerning this
change. "Some students are against it but
there are some students who said they
would be more concerned alwut their
grades if there was such a policy."
It is not uncommon for other sister
schools in the State System of Higher Education (SSHE) to require students to have
certain numbers of earned credits tiefore
they move off campus.
For example, Bloomsburg University requires new freshmen to live on campus for
the first two semesters but there is no credit
hour requirement. Mansfield University
has the most strict requirement in terms of
the number of credit hours; all students
with 95 or less credits must live on campus.
No SSHE schools, however, require stu-

dents to maintain a minimum GPA
"Lock Haven would be the first SSHE
school to consider GPA as a requirement,"
said Koch.
Koch said the policy was not the product
of the administration alone but that meetings to discuss the proposed policy involved some of the student body such as
the Residence Hall Association (RHA).
Some fear the proposed policy might result in a decline in enrollment.
Currently 90 to 95 percent of the 1630
person capacity in the residence halls is
filled and 45 percent living there are freshmen. Other percentages of students living
on campus are 30 percent of sophomores,
16 percent of juniors and 9 percent of seniors, according to Koch.
"And we do believe living on campus
does help," said Koch.
"If [they] live on campus, the students
have more opportunity to be involved and
learn how the University works bett6V. By
the time the student leave the dorms, they
will be prepared enough or academically
established," said Koch.

Three main factors which lead to success
in projects as this one are preparation, perspiration and luck, said Dan Weinzierl,
construction manager for district II of
Pennsylvania's Department of General Services. "A lot of people understand that a
partnership such as this has far-reaching effects for the University, the Commonwealth and tht community," he said.
No university does a better job than Lock
Haven at responding to the academic, athletic and achievement needs of its faculty,
students and the community, said Les
Noelk, University trustee and chairperson
of the Capital Campaign.
"You're going to have a state-of-the-art
facility here," said Bruce Layman, the national account manager for Southwest Recreational Industries, Inc., the project's contractor. "We look forward to kicking this
thing off this fall," he said.
Dr. Tom O'Rourke, representing the
Keystone Central School District, hopes
that the project will continue to aid the
cooperation which exists between the University and the school district.
"This has been a dream of a lot of people
to have an artificial surface," said University President Craig Dean Willis.

Join the staff of your
campus newspaper
It's fun, but you also learn responsibility. It's
extra work but it looks good on your resume. It's
probably the best way to learn the ins and outs of
a newspaper short of an internship. What am I
talking about? That's simple. Joining the Eagle
Eye editorial staff.
You don't have to be a journalism major either
All you need is a willingness to work and dedication. What better way to get to the people who
make up this University ~ everyday you come in
contact with members of the administration, the
SCC, faculty and staff, and students.
This is a learning experience you can't find on
the class schedule. You learn a lot of essential
computer skills, layout and design of a newspaper, interviewing skills, and a whole lot more.
Being on the editorial staff gives _>'OM a say in
the running of the campus newspaper. Joining
the staff could change your outlook on student
life.

Trio to perform today's hottest hits
Settle, an acoustic rock trio, will bring
their sound to the PUB Multi-Purpose
Room on Wednesday, April 19 at 8 p.m.
Headed by Lisette Bellnier, backed by
Brian Fellows and Dave Brooks, the trio
has managed to become one of the most in
demand performers at colleges throughout
the country in the past two years. In 1993,
Settie showcased at the New England and
East Coast National Association for Campus Activities (NACA) Coffeehouse Festivals. In 1994, they shined at the national
NACA conference in Boston resulting in a
national fall tour of 45 colleges.
The fall of 1994 also brought two more
college showcases at the NACA Upper
Midwest and New England Regional Conferences.
Formed in the spring of 1992, Settie performed eight shows at UMASS and six
shows at Amherst College, and now they
are playing to capacity crowds in local
night spots. The trio hails from Amherst,
Massachusetts.
Campus Activities Programming reviews
all concur that this is the act to book and
re-book. With renditions of classic rock
tunes to today's most popular songs, coupled with Bellneir's vocals and stage presence, audiences everywhere are always
asking for more. Settle's debut CD on
Public Records titled Bob Bit the Fisherman was released this past fall. The trio's
first album. No Chedda for Chetta was released on Public Records in 1993.
From blistering renditions of Melissa
Etheridge's "Like the Way I' Do" to the
softer classic "Can't Find My Way Home"
as well as a variety of hits by artists such as
Bonnie Raitt, Indigo Girls, Riki Lee Jones,
Fleetwood Mac, Cariy Simon, Beatles, Jimmy Buffet, Sinatra and many more to see
and hear is to believe. What put places into
hyperdrive, however, are the incredible versions of about half a dozen Janis Joplin
tunes such as "Mercedes Benz," "Bobby
McGee," "Try" and many others.
In addition to these artists, Settie will be
performing music from such performers as
Belly, The Cranberries, Pearl Jam, Jimi
Hendrix, Grateful Dead, Lemonheads, Tom
Petty, Rolling Stones and Eric Clapton.
The trio also has some originals of their
own. A tape of six original songs sold over
500 copies one spring semester and continues to sell well.
While the trio has performed throughout
the country, they have also brought their act
to the area with performances at West Chester and East Stroudsburg Universities.

Japan assault opens door for more atrocities
If the commonly heard saying "the freaks
come out at night" holds any truth at all,
then night has fallen around the world.
Who is it I refer to as the freaks? Take
your pick from the pool of any one of the
hundreds of radical terrorist organizations
from around the planet. Then add to that
the plethora of new-age cults which are
continually surfacing around the globe, and
you should have no problem understanding
to whom I am referring.
I remember a time when it use to be simple to define who the terrorists were and
weren't. The term terrorists at one time
solely referred to the handful of Middle
Eastern radical political organizations bent
on the achievement of their well-publicized
ideologies through death and mayhem.
Now with a sudden surge of apocalyptic
cults and political extremists the term terrorists has become a household word.
What is it that makes these groups so dangerous? If you tuned into the nightly news
at all last week, you wouldn't have to ask.
Japan, the country which just two months
ago was struck by a great earthquake, was
recently assailed by yet another disaster.
This catastrophe, however, was far from
natural: Sarin, a nerve gas, was released in
five subway cars during morning rush hour
in Tokyo, killing ten and sickening thousands of others.
Standing accused of this atrocity is a cult
known as Aum Shinrikyo (Aum Supreme
Truth), headed by the charismatic and demented guru, Shoko Asahara. The allega-
tions came after the discovery by police of
vast quantities of toxic chemical at the cult
compound, with many of the chemicals being constituent components of sarin.
If these allegations prove to be true, the
sheer dementia of this cult would cast a sinister shadow over the recent barbecue at
Wako; and we all know the extent of the
madness rooted in the Branch Davidian
group formerly headed by David Koresh.
The big difference between these two radical religious groups is that Koresh and his
followers posed little threat to the public at
large.
Shoko (which I believe is Japanese for
"wacko") and his followers pose a very real
threat to the nation of Japan. Some reports
indicate that enough chemical agents were
found at the compound to wage a war
against the Japanese nation! This has taken
the madness of terrorism to new heights.
For decades, even the most radical of terrorist organizations have curtailed their killing; imposing a certain amount of restraint
on themselves. It has always been obvious
that these groups have had access to chemical and biological warfare agents and simply chose not to employ them.
Now that the "ethical barrier" of not using these agents in attacks has been shattered by whatever party may be responsible
for the Tokyo assault, it has become only a
matter of time until other terrorist organizations begin to use the techniques so readily
available to them. What will we as a nation do when that time comes when these
attacks find their way to the doorstep of the
"land of the free and the home of the
brave?" More than likely the country will
form a government task force to "further
discuss the issue" or send a United Nations
peace-keeping force to have tea with the
terrorists and discuss how we can accommodate their needs.
Whatever the case may be, the recent attack in Tokyo by Shoko Asahara and his
flock has expanded the overall threat by all
terrorist organizations and radical cults to a
level of epic proportions that governments
around the world will find difficult to halt.

Big Hair moving from Jersey to the music charts
by Matt Walsh
Eagle Eye Music Critic
As I stated last week, the amount of
great, new material being released right
now is phenomenal. I just have no time to
listen to all the great stuff that's been infiltrating the WLHU offices.
Last week I reviewed a well-known band,
and this week I will be going back to my
ordinary self and reviewing a great new
band I'm almost positive you haven't heard
before.
It is unfortunate the music you hear on
commercial radio/MTV tends to be so
bland all the time. What happens is that
one label signs a new innovative band, they
become pwpular, then every other record label signs any band that sounds remotely
like that band. This is why we end up
swimming in a sea of musical mediocrity.
Here are some examples: The Breeders'
popularity spawned Veruca Salt. Hell, the
whole Seattle "grunge" thing brought us
eight zillion "grunge" bands. Bush being
the most recent one on the rise.
The problem is record labels try gaining
profits on "what's big" at the moment,
where the average person would rather listen to the band that made it big in the first
place. Luckily for us, an occasional good,
original band makes its way on a major label, or as I always find myself doing, we
can resort to finding our music on an independent label.
One of the new bands which has quickly
caught my ear is a band called Big Hair,
who has recently released its debut album.
The Pickle Farm (Energy Records). Describing Big Hair is quite difficult. With a
name like that, you'd probably expect a
glam-rock, '80s cheese metal band like Poison, but that's certainly not the case.
Take a punk band, throw in an exceptional funk-style bass player whose talents rank
with Flea of The Red Hot Chili Peppers
and Les Claypool of Primus. Throw in a
little '70s progressive rock feel, some '90s
heavy thrash, and a little Helmet-ish
crunch. Oh yeah, don't forget to throw in a
fiddle player. Add all this music to really
bizarre, corny, and hilarious lyrics, and you
kind of get the gist of Big Hair. This is
definitely not your ordinary band.
these different styles of music and untraditional instruments is very odd sounding, but
is mighty impressive.
Notable cuts include "Potty Mouth,"
"Barney Wasn't," "Stoned Ant," "Spooge,"
and the sure-to-be hit single "Poop Salad
Sandwich." Also included is the story of
how a kid's dad gets smoked like a bong by
' ' ' ' ' ' ^ ^ r , -. , M '"piig Bjg Hair In
My Closet," and
five minute
hidden track of
absolute
nonsense (but fun
nonsense!).
One of the
things I like
most about this
band is that despite the fact that
they are very talented musicians,
they haven't let it
go
to
their
heads. They're
in it just for fun,
and this is reflected in their
lyrics.
The lyrics are
unfortunately
not printed in the
liner notes, as
they write "The
lyrics on this album are dumb,
therefore, they
are not printed.
If you can actually figure them out, rest assured, you're dumb too." Gotta love a band
with a warped sense of humor.
I really wish I could explain the sound of
Big Hair to you, but sometimes a band
comes along, and words just aren't enough
to describe them. What does this mean?
Easy. GET IT!! Call up some lonely
AMiMMJ
Musically this album is intense. We've
become so accustomed to thinking that a
fiddle is only a country music instrument
that we don't really realize how well it fits
with other styles of music. The musicianship is very tight, and the bass player is extremely impressive (he is listed in the liner
notes as "That Tod Guy"). The result of all
WLHU DJ and bug the hell out of them to
play this. Yes, it's this odd and this good.
This is definitely a must for those of you
into bands such as Primus.
As I stated earlier, there are tons of great
releases out and many soon to come out.
Keep a look out for new releases from
White Zombie, Gorefest, Orange 9mm,
Deicide, Quicksand, and the comeback of
one of the all-time greatest bands. King
Crimson. Maybe one of these will be next
week's review, but then again, with all the
great releases coming out, who knows what
will pop up. Stay tuned.

Ladies score two wins
Lacrosse
by Robin Moyer Jr.
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_
Despite its early season troubles and a
number of one-point losses, the LHU
lacrosse team seems to have turned things
around by winning a close game against
Millersville on Wednesday.
With the first three games being decided
by one point and all in the opponent's favor,
the Lady Eagles found themselves in an
early season hole.
They dropped their first three games to
Washington and Lee, Bucknell and Ithaca.
"In our first three games we played well,
Volley ers take
tournament
by Suzanne Shultz
Eagle Eye Sports Editor_
Last Saturday the Lady Eagles volleyball team went into their tournament with
confidence and came out with a win.
The team won four matches in order to
advance to the finals and win the tournament.
LHU faced a pool containing top teams
like Mercy Hurst College, Slippery Rock
University, and a team consisting of
Edinboro University all-star alumni.
After beating all three of those teams,
the Ladies advanced to the semifinals
where they faced California Universtiy.
They won two out of three games and
won the match. The volleyers then again
faced the Edinboro alumni in the finals
and beat them 2-0.
Head Coach Tom Justice .said things
are looking up for the team, and they
have improved tremendously since the
fall.
"I think that we will be an awfully
tough team to beat in the fall," Justice
stated. "We will be one of the teams to
beat — barring injuries."
The team will travel to Europe in May
and June to try and improve their play
even more by taking on some European
teams.
riTME//
but did not finish it," Head Coach Bridget
Roun said.
The Lady Eagles lacrosse team then
bounced back with a decisive victory over
Cortland. They, however, followed that
game with a loss to Bloomsburg in their
first PSAC contest.
From there on out the Lady Eagles have
won two straight.
Roun said that the game on Wednesday
against Millersville was definitely the
turning p)oint of the season.
She said that the offense "came into its
own," the defense was tough and the Lady
Eagles controlled the midfield.
The lacrosse team has gotten solid play
from its goalie, Robin Martin and offensive
threats, Caroline Gillich, Sharon Kreider,
Michelle Burt and Kristen Geissler.
Even though the team is stacked with
solid players, Roun commented that you
cannot win a lacrosse game with one
premier player.
"You need the 12 players on the field to
be playing well in order to come out
victorious."
"One of our strengths this year is
realizing that our goals will be achieved
when we all work together," she said.

Ladies win over Clarion; lose to Ship.
RBIs help Ladies in win
Soltball
by Amy Coles
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter
The Lady Eagles softball team
opened conference play on Saturday
with two impressive wins over
PSAC-West foe Clarion.
Behind an outstanding pitching
performance by junior Jen Geary,
who struck out seven Golden Eagles,
the LHU bats exploded in game one
of the doubleheader.
The Lady Eagles got the scoring
going early, thanks to sophomore
Robin Kumpaitis.
Her one-out single in the second
inning sparked the LHU offense.
After singles by Geary and freshman
Diane
Drumheller,
Kumpaitis
crossed the plate with the Lady
Eagles' first run.
It was a lead the team would not
relinquish.
In the second inning, Kumpaitis
smashed a triple with sophomore
Amy Haris on first base. The hit
resulted in two LHU runs: Harris
came home with
Kumpaitis not far
behind her, thanks to
a Clarion error.
Another Kumpaitis
triple in the fifth, and
a single by senior
pinch hitter Sue Faia
earned the Lady
Eagles a 4-1 victory.
Game two was
even more one-sided
in favor of the Lady
Eagles.
The
offensive
onslaught continued,
en route to a 7-0 win.
Kumpaitis led the
way in this game as
well, with two triples
and
two
RBIs.
Harris, Drumheller,
junior Tiff Amore, and sophomore Roseann
Mogan also drove in runs in the game.
"A lot of the players finally started to hit
in those games," said Head Coach Kim
Lindsey. "And they hit when they needed
to — with runners on base."
The situation was just the opposite on
Monday, however, when the Lady Eagles
traveled to Shippensburg.
LHU was shut out in both games against
the Lady Raiders.
"In those games, we
couldn't
score
our
people," said Lindsey.
LHU
had
many
opportunities in the first
game to break it wide
open. In every inning,
the Lady Eagles had
runners on base, often
Perhaps
disappointed
with
their
performance in game one, LHU came out
flat in the second game.
The Lady Raiders made quick work of the
Lady Eagles, scoring eight runs in five
innings while silencing the LHU bats that
were speaking volumes just 48 hours
earlier.
Despite the two losses, LHU remains
second in the PSAC-West ~ for the time
