Candle ignites McEntire fire Friday evening
By LARRY SCHMIDT
Assoc. News Editor
A fire apparently sparked
by a burning candle that fell
from its position on a heater
forced evacuation of dorm
residents from McEntire Hall
Friday night as members of
the Division of Law Enforcement and Safety fought to
extinquish the blaze. The
fire, which began at approximately 6:33 pm, is thought! to
have started when a melted
candle fell from a heater onto
a footlocker and ignited a
bath towel.
A Saturday morning investigation into the fire's
origin determined that the fire
spread from the bath towel to
a stereo, and in turn caused
the room's curtains to ignite.
From the curtains the fire
spread to the chairs and desks
on either side of the foot
locker, burning records and
coats along the way.
According to a report
given
law
enforcement
officials by the two students
involved, Millie Enos and
Susan Knoll, the fire develop-
ed during a five minute interval during w4iich the girls
left their room. Upon returning
at approximately 6:38 pm the
girls discovered their room
ablaze.
Efforts to extinquish the
fire began when Director of
Law Enforcement and Safety
Carl
Nelson
telephoned
Officer Barret of Law Enforcement and Safety and informed
him that a fire had broken
out on the seventh floor of
McEntire
Hall.
Officer
Barrett then issued a request
for two fire company pumpers
and proceeded to the fire.
Upon arrival on seventh
floor, Officer Barrett found
Mr. Nelson battling the fire
with the dorm's fire extinquishers. Mr. Nelson and Officer
Barrett exlinquished the fire
prior to the fire company's
arrival by using extinquishers

A meeting of studenis
interested in traveling to
Oregon and points in between
will be held at 1:00 pm in the
planetarium. The co-ed trip
which is being planned by the
bio-science
department of
LHS, will be for the first
summer session of 1975. Students will drive SCC vans to
such places as Yellowstone
National Park, a rainforrest in
Washington, and the Great
Lakes, as well as other
points of interest.
At each of these slops
sludents will do independent
field studies for which they
will receive six
college
credits.
A major in one of the
Geo-science is not a prerequisite for the trip, as any
student may apply. Selection
of students will be based upon
the
interest
which
they
exhibit. If there is enough
interest at Tuesday's meeting, the trip may be offered for
the aecond summer session,
as well as in future years.
Depending on the response
toward
the program, the
college may pay for all
transportation, leaving only
food, lodging, and tuition for
the students to provide for.

Today's Bditorial - ^ —
It could happen again
"Girls, this Is a RE:AL fire. Please vacate the building irrrrediately."
H/any WcEntire residents, hearing these words early
Friday evening as they prepared for partying and dates,
were shocl(ed to find that the fire alarrr which had soundrrinutes earlier was in earnest. Theininitial reaction was
that of annoyance, the usual feeling toward rrost fire
alarrrs. The observed practice airong soire students irs to
locl< the door, turn out the lights, and "wait it out" to
avoid a trip out into the cold.
The attitude toward dorrritory regulations which
strictly forbid the burning\of candles in residence halls
is rruch the saire - and everyone knows candles can start
fires, but assurres that their candle won't. Perhaps the!
worren lin 717 McEntire thought this, too, but a few trin-l
utes away frorr the flickering flaire cost therr IT any of
their belongings, not to rrention the accorrpanying eirotional scars.
Sadly enough, the reasons for having regulations
really surface when it^s too late to reiredy dairage already done. Candle fires are not a novelty to the Lock
Haven carrpus, and yet incidents such as happened Friday night still occur. The possible chaos asirrple candle
can trigger would seerr to be enough to keep students
frorr burning therr. But then, '^seerr to be enough" Is not
the 'sarre as 'Vrs enough".
McEntire's other residents were fortunate to have
counselors and wing representatives who cared enough to
thoroughly check to rral the flarres until Law Enforcerrent Director Carl Nelson,
with the assistance of Officer Barrett, braved the stroke
to be sure everyone was out. The quick actions of the two
officers, who finished rrost of the fire fighting before the
fire departrrent arrived, prevented what could have been
disaster on a rruch larger scale.
The rrerrories of Valentine's Day - evening will
rerrain for awhile, and it's doubtful that, for the next
rronth at least, a single candle will be lit in McEntire.
But, for the tiire beyond then, who knows? Please keep
this incident in rrind the next tirre you touch flarre to a
wick or duck Into a closet to avoid the clang of a fire
alarrr. Vou rray not be as lucky as the McEntire residents, who did get out with their lives.

Freedom Train to begin
nationwide tour in April
This April, a giant
steam engine, a colorful
reminder
from America's
golden age of railroads,
will have begun its historic two-year journey in
celebration of the American
Revolution Bicentennial.
From Wilmington, the
capital of the first state to
ratify the Constitution, the
Freedom Train will journey
to Boston, where it will
participate in the celebration April 18 of the battle
at Lexington, where the
nation's fight for freedom
began.
Before the journey is
over, more than ten million
Americans will have boarded the train and experienced
ils magnificent displays.
It will have traveled more
than 17,000 miles through
thousands
of
American
communities and will have
been viewed along the way
by 40 to 50 million Americans and made stops in 76
cities. During its journey it
will have been within a onehour driving distance of 90
percent of the nation's
population.
Back in 1947 an earlier
version of the American
Freedom Train was spoisored by the American
Heritage
Foundation.
It
logged 37,160 miles in its
travels across the country,
stopping in every one of the
then 48 states.
The idea for a Biceivtennial "Freedom Train"
came from Ross Rowland, a
35-year
old
commodity
broicer with a passion for
railroading. In 1966 Mr.
Rowland formed the High
Iron Company, Inc. to restore and operate a mainline steam locomotive. High
Iron ran a variety of public
excursions including the
"Golden Spike Centennial
Limited," which marked the
100th Anniversary of the
linking of the United States
by rail.
After this successful
venture, Mr. Rowland created the idea for the Bicentennial Freedom Train. By
1974 he had just about

Penn State defeats Eaglettes
By MARY FEUSNER
Women's Sports Editor
The Lady Lions of
neighboring
Penn
State
managed to hand the Eaglettes their second loss of
the 1975 basketball season.
The Lady Lion hosts posted
a slim 24-22 lead at half,
and went on lo win the contest 60-46.
The slow pace of the
game was set by Penn State
and it was difficult for the
Lock Haven squad to adjust.
The Lock Haven offense
failed to lift the lid off the
hoop, as they shot their
poorest field goal percentage of the year. The
fact that the game was not
strictly
offensive was
evident in that the score
was 8-6, Lock Haven's
favor, after 8 minutes of
playing time elapsed. Up
until this time. Lock Haven
center Barb Hudson had no
trouble
controlling
the
boards. Hudson was responsible for 8 of Lock Haven's
22 points at thei half.
With the start of the
second half, Nancy Hoelzle
chipped in an outside shot
to even the score at 24 all.
Lock Haven experienced
foul trouble midway through
the second period of play.
Barb Hudson fouled out of
the game with 8:15 remaining
to be played.

Kohler with five seconds
left in the game put it away
for the Faculty. That score
was Faculty 39, Vets 37.
Fueshko had 16 in a losing

showed some power in the
final game of the night by
whipping TKD 92 to 48.
Fhi Mu Delta also had five
men in double figures with
Kreider taking the honors
with 26 points.
In Division II, Phi Mu

Candle ignites McEntire fire Friday evening
By LARRY SCHMIDT
Assoc. News Editor
A fire apparently sparked
by a burning candle that fell
from its position on a heater
forced evacuation of dorm
residents from McEntire Hall
Friday night as members of
the Division of Law Enforcement and Safety fought to
extinquish the blaze. The
fire, which began at approximately 6:33 pm, is thought! to
have started when a melted
candle fell from a heater onto
a footlocker and ignited a
bath towel.
A Saturday morning investigation into the fire's
origin determined that the fire
spread from the bath towel to
a stereo, and in turn caused
the room's curtains to ignite.
From the curtains the fire
spread to the chairs and desks
on either side of the foot
locker, burning records and
coats along the way.
According to a report
given
law
enforcement
officials by the two students
involved, Millie Enos and
Susan Knoll, the fire develop-
ed during a five minute interval during w4iich the girls
left their room. Upon returning
at approximately 6:38 pm the
girls discovered their room
ablaze.
Efforts to extinquish the
fire began when Director of
Law Enforcement and Safety
Carl
Nelson
telephoned
Officer Barret of Law Enforcement and Safety and informed
him that a fire had broken
out on the seventh floor of
McEntire
Hall.
Officer
Barrett then issued a request
for two fire company pumpers
and proceeded to the fire.
Upon arrival on seventh
floor, Officer Barrett found
Mr. Nelson battling the fire
with the dorm's fire extinquishers. Mr. Nelson and Officer
Barrett exlinquished the fire
prior to the fire company's
arrival by using extinquishers

It could happen again
"Girls, this Is a RE:AL fire. Please vacate the building irrrrediately."
H/any WcEntire residents, hearing these words early
Friday evening as they prepared for partying and dates,
were shocl(ed to find that the fire alarrr which had soundrrinutes earlier was in earnest. Theininitial reaction was
that of annoyance, the usual feeling toward rrost fire
alarrrs. The observed practice airong soire students irs to
locl< the door, turn out the lights, and "wait it out" to
avoid a trip out into the cold.
The attitude toward dorrritory regulations which
strictly forbid the burning\of candles in residence halls
is rruch the saire - and everyone knows candles can start
fires, but assurres that their candle won't. Perhaps the!
worren lin 717 McEntire thought this, too, but a few trin-l
utes away frorr the flickering flaire cost therr IT any of
their belongings, not to rrention the accorrpanying eirotional scars.
Sadly enough, the reasons for having regulations
really surface when it^s too late to reiredy dairage already done. Candle fires are not a novelty to the Lock
Haven carrpus, and yet incidents such as happened Friday night still occur. The possible chaos asirrple candle
can trigger would seerr to be enough to keep students
frorr burning therr. But then, '^seerr to be enough" Is not
the 'sarre as 'Vrs enough".
McEntire's other residents were fortunate to have
counselors and wing representatives who cared enough to
thoroughly check to rral the flarres until Law Enforcerrent Director Carl Nelson,
with the assistance of Officer Barrett, braved the stroke
to be sure everyone was out. The quick actions of the two
officers, who finished rrost of the fire fighting before the
fire departrrent arrived, prevented what could have been
disaster on a rruch larger scale.
The rrerrories of Valentine's Day - evening will
rerrain for awhile, and it's doubtful that, for the next
rronth at least, a single candle will be lit in McEntire.
But, for the tiire beyond then, who knows? Please keep
this incident in rrind the next tirre you touch flarre to a
wick or duck Into a closet to avoid the clang of a fire
alarrr. Vou rray not be as lucky as the McEntire residents, who did get out with their lives.

To The Editor:
I have noticed a lot of
interest by students concorning The Psychology Lab

these people are either missing the issue completely or
partially. The issue is not
that the blacks should or
should notI have a lounge
or that the lab was moved
without notice, the issue is;
Does "Lord" Hamblin have
the right to override the
S.C.C? The B.S.U. is an
S.C.C. sponsered organizaition and should come under
S.C.C. jurisdiction, not
" L o r d " Hamblin. I sugge»i

for name-calling and the such

Freedom Train to begin
nationwide tour in April
This April, a giant
steam engine, a colorful
reminder
from America's
golden age of railroads,
will have begun its historic two-year journey in
celebration of the American
Revolution Bicentennial.
From Wilmington, the
capital of the first state to
ratify the Constitution, the
Freedom Train will journey
to Boston, where it will
participate in the celebration April 18 of the battle
at Lexington, where the
nation's fight for freedom
began.
Before the journey is
over, more than ten million
Americans will have boarded the train and experienced
ils magnificent displays.
It will have traveled more
than 17,000 miles through
thousands
of
American
communities and will have
been viewed along the way
by 40 to 50 million Americans and made stops in 76
cities. During its journey it
will have been within a onehour driving distance of 90
percent of the nation's
population.
Back in 1947 an earlier
version of the American
Freedom Train was spoisored by the American
Heritage
Foundation.
It
logged 37,160 miles in its
travels across the country,
stopping in every one of the
then 48 states.
The idea for a Biceivtennial "Freedom Train"
came from Ross Rowland, a
35-year
old
commodity
broicer with a passion for
railroading. In 1966 Mr.
Rowland formed the High
Iron Company, Inc. to restore and operate a mainline steam locomotive. High
Iron ran a variety of public
excursions including the
"Golden Spike Centennial
Limited," which marked the
100th Anniversary of the
linking of the United States
by rail.
After this successful
venture, Mr. Rowland created the idea for the Bicentennial Freedom Train. By
1974 he had just about

him if possible. Lets get to>

Penn State defeats Eaglettes
By MARY FEUSNER
Women's Sports Editor
The Lady Lions of
neighboring
Penn
State
managed to hand the Eaglettes their second loss of
the 1975 basketball season.
The Lady Lion hosts posted
a slim 24-22 lead at half,
and went on lo win the contest 60-46.
The slow pace of the
game was set by Penn State
and it was difficult for the
Lock Haven squad to adjust.
The Lock Haven offense
failed to lift the lid off the
hoop, as they shot their
poorest field goal percentage of the year. The
fact that the game was not
strictly
offensive was
evident in that the score
was 8-6, Lock Haven's
favor, after 8 minutes of
playing time elapsed. Up
until this time. Lock Haven
center Barb Hudson had no
trouble
controlling
the
boards. Hudson was responsible for 8 of Lock Haven's
22 points at thei half.
With the start of the
second half, Nancy Hoelzle
chipped in an outside shot
to even the score at 24 all.
Lock Haven experienced
foul trouble midway through
the second period of play.
Barb Hudson fouled out of
the game with 8:15 remaining
to be played.

the game was 60-46 in favor

Say, how's your swollen
elbow? It looks pretty good.
The way it met my eye, you

Oh well, enough talk. I'll
tell you Wednesday night's
scores now.
In Division I, the
Knicks ran by Third North
by a score of 78 to 58. Five
men hit double figures for
the wirmers and Weagley led
the team with 19. In the
second game, a basket by
Kohler with five seconds
left in the game put it away
for the Faculty. That score
was Faculty 39, Vets 37.
Fueshko had 16 in a losing
cause. ^ Phi Mu Delta (A)
showed some power in the
final game of the night by
whipping TKD 92 to 48.
Fhi Mu Delta also had five
men in double figures with
Kreider taking the honors
with 26 points.
In Division II, Phi Mu
Delta (B) vs. the Cave was
cancelled. Off-campus defeated Outhouse (A) 56 to

for the winners. TKE (A)
flexed its muscles in the
twilight game by beating
Hickie's Honors 73 to 39.
Kesseler led TKE with 16
points.
In Division ID, Phi Mu
Delta (C) just didn't have
enough to get by the Wildcats, 54 to 48. Baughman
pumped in 24 points for the
winners. In the second
game. First Gross devoured
TKE (B) by a score of 94
to 24. First Gross only
needed one player to win
the game, it seems, for M.
Park had 25 points for the
Hall team. First Floor High
heard how much power was
being shown so they showed
some, too, by beating
Beachouse 75 to 45. Glowaki took scoring honors
for the night with 31 points.
