New Officers Sworn In
By TOMMYE TAIXE^Y
The swearing in of the
new SCC officers took place
last Wednesday night, at
the last SCC meeting of this

Miller Chosen
New Trustee
SCC Executive Board.
The new siate conducted
the meeting. Lepley told
the Senators and students
attending the meeting of
hopes for the future of his
slate. Some of them
included: trying to get
dances back into Bentley,
trying to get part of the
library open on Friday and
Saturday nights, trying to
get more student discounts
in the area businesses, and
various other proposed
plans for students at Lock
Haven State College. Lepley also said Craig Miller
was appointed as Student
Representative to the LHSC
Board of Trustees.
Other events of the
meeting included the clarification of the lOCC concert
problem. The Social Committee has decided that
there was a verbal and
legally binding agreement
with lOCC, and if the SCC
was not reimbursed for the
advanced advertising for
the concert, they would
have grounds to sue the
group.
The meeting ended with
the announcement of the
first SCC meeting for next
semester; Jan. 24, when
the new SCC administration will announce committee appointments.
By JEFF FI£ISHMAN
Craig Miller, newly appointed Student Trustee,
explains that the reason he
accepted the position is so
he could "help improve the
college and its communications between faculty,
administration and the
students."
The Student Trustee's
function is to "represent
the students at college
board meetings." These
meetings discuss the policy
of the college which entails
topics such as finances and
student life.
Miller is new at this type
of job and explained that he
is just getting started to get
the feel of his new position.
Miller hasn't been able to
meet with Dr. Hamblin yet,
but feels that after the next
board meeting on January
18 he will become more
aware of the direction he
wishes to pursue. Miller
also, "hopes to work with
the SCC and the executive
officers, alot."
Millf^r now a junior will
hold this position until he
graduates. He at one time
was Vice President of Hich
Hall. Miller » resides iii_i
Renovo, Pa. and is majoring in Political Science.
Injured Sophomore Regains Strength Daily
By CLARENCE WASHINGTON
Gary Rosata, a sophomore at LHSC, who fell off
a 70 foot cliff and landed on
his head, said that doctors
told him if it wasn't for his
training with weights, and
being in shape from
boxing, he would have died
from his brutal fall.
Rosata, along with two
friends, also from LHSC,
tried to find a short cut
through the wooded area
just lutside of Lock Haven
after thumbing a ride from
Williamsport. The three
young men came to the cliff
and decided to tum away
because it was to steep to
climb down. As Rosato
turned, he said his foot
slipped and he began his
near fatal fall. Rocky, as he
is known, said he "remembers falling" and was conscious as he bounced down
the steep hill. He also
remembers landing face
first and still remained
semi-conscious.
One ot Kocky's two com-
panions ran eight miles to'
the nearest house for help
while the other scaled down
the cliff to aid his friend.
State police were the first to
arrive on the scene. Rosato
said, "1 heard the one cop
say to the other, he's not
going to make it, but all the
time I was trying to talk to
them." Ambulances finally
came, and about seven
hours after his fall the crew
pulled him up from the
bottom of the cliff.
In addition to head
injuries, Rosato injured his
right elbow. He received 37
stitches in his head and had
to have a plate put in the
right side of his face
because, as the sophomore
said, "My eye was where
my nose is."
Rocky spend four days in
intensive care and a total of
two weeks in the Hospital.
He is now back on campus
and says, "I feel stronger
every day," and he is
looking forward to being
able to lift weights again.
GEORGE STRUNK, former LHSC student, was
found dead yesterday morning by State Police in
East Stroudsburg Holiday inn.
Strunk Found Dead At 26

SCOPING i^ lir LETTER O P E N I N G
By D A N W A Y
All of the recent interest in the pledge program of
Kappa Delta Rho fraternity has prompted me to
write this article. This interest comes from
students, faculty, and even a few administrators.
As president of KDR, I feel compelled to write this
article, and as a former pledge master, I feel I'm
qualified to inform any interested parties of the
pledge policies.
Pledging begins every semester on initiation
night. This is a special night because it is the first
step in joining our fraternity. The pledges are
forced to drink grain alcohol until they become
hopelessly drunk and nauseous. When they reach
trtis desired state, we use our Hoover vacuum
cleaner to pump out their stomachs. Any pledges
who don't make it through this ritual are buried in
our cellar so we can avoid being placed on
probation.
Pledging ends at a brotherization meeting. A t
this meeting w e have the pledges eat dog dirt, sit
on cold concrete until they get a hemorrhoid, give
each other an enema, and have sexual relations
with a chihuahua in heat. These festivities are
capped out by paddling their bare behinds until the
welts are so thick they can't fit into their pants.
In between initiation and brotherization we
conduct meaningful activities such as sitting on a
50-lb. block of ice until it melts, a worm eating contest (the record is 53 worms in 15 minutes), swan
diving from the third floor roof, text book burning,
ZTA tosses, and experimenting with LSD.
Anyone interested in further information on our
pledging program can contact me at " t h e local child
daycare center disguised as a f r a t e r n i t y , " or talk to
Brian VanDue in Sullivan Hall. If unable to reach
either of us, come on down next semester and find
out first-hand.
COMMENTARY
By SHELLEY H t C K
Rules are rules, but why is Russell Hall so strict?
In the handbook it states that North Hall, Woolridge Hall, H i g h Hall & Russeli Hall are supposed
to all have the same visitation, but they don't. A l l
visitation has been changed in each hall including
Russell, however, ours is so strict.
For example, last week I was downstairs in
Russell lobby. A guy came to visit one of the girls
on first floor. It was 6:28 and she was not allowed to
take him to her room until 6:30. W e feel this is
getting a little picky considering M c E n t i r e starts
their visiting at 3:00 in the afternoon. W e would
like to know why M c E n t i r e , an all girls dorm, is
more lenient with their visitation than Russell, also
an all girls dorm?

Dear Editor,
There is something that
goes on at LHSC that
bothers me very deeply.
This is the double standard
that is a very apparent in
the dormitories. The victims of this double standard
are us Freshmen, who are
getting yelled at for talking
with our door open, or
playing our stereo too loud.
Yet the upperclassmen tum
up their stereos, at 8:00 in
the morning, when many
people are still sleeping,
and they blast it at night
and leave their doors open.
We Freshmen are told to
tum it down and close the
door, or we'll have to "go
see Bossert." The upperclassmen go screaming and
yelling down the hall to tell
someone they're wanted on
the phone, because they're
too lazy to go to the room
and give the message, or
they have to tell their friend
at the end of the hall what
happened when she and
John had a fight last
evening. We Freshmen are
told to go to the person's
room and give them the
message, or we'll have to
"go see Bossert." Are the
counselors afraid of the
upperclassmen? Do they
get to play bigtime
counselor by yelling at the
"gullible" Freshmen?
I, for one, as many others
1 have spoken to on this
subject, am sick and tired
of this ill-treatment of
Freshmen. What rules
apply to Freshmen are
supposed to apply to
EVERYONE. We are weary
and disgusted of being
picked on by counselors for
some stupid little thing.
Not until this double
standard is evaporated and
rules and regulations applied to everyone, will we
follow them. We'll just be
the followers that Freshmen are customized as
being, and only follow the
rules that everyone else
follows. Maybe then things
will shape up.

"Poor Professor Heller," an original one-act comedy by LHSC student, poet,
and Dlavwright Joe Pagana, will be presented on campus this weekend^
^ 7 £ ^ \ ^ ; ^ X e c t e d by Professor Larry Lebin, features students Jayne Bolduc,
Dan V^ay, Lori Jordan, and Joe DiDonato. In the play, Pagana uses the
bomb-scare theme to bring up the dilemma of student vs. incompetent teacher.
Elaine played by Ms. Bolduc, is an earnest student who is trying desperately
to pass her math course, but is failing because of her confusing professor^ As a
last-ditch effort to pass, she is urged by Toad (Dan Way to phone in a bombthreat The plot is further entangled when the professor (Joe DiDonato) accuses
Leda, a good student (played by M s . Jordan) of making the bomb threat.
The play goes on to examine, in a humorous fashion, the flaws of both
professor and student, with three types of students characterized: the failing
student the witty worldly-wise student, and the 4.0 student. Both sides of the
coin are explored'in the problem area of student-professor relations.
The play will be running Fri.-Sun. at 9:00 pm in the PUB Conference Room
(121).
A play of a different genre is " F r e e to Be . . . You and M e , " this year's touring
children's show. " F r e e to Be . . . You and M e " is a bright, charming, and w i t t y
presentation designed to break the stereotypical sex roles presented in most
children's stories, but in an engaging and n o n - " p r e a c h y " manner. The
production unfolds through quick, humorous skits interspersed with songs.
The cast includes Kathy Clyde, Greg McCracken, Aaron Battle, Gwen H u m mel, T. J. Towne, Kalyn Shaible, Jack Sohnleitner, and Jim Wortman on guitar.
Rick Kline directed the production, assisted by D. J. Akeley and Darsell
Brittingham. The cast has spent a long, hard week touring all the area elementary schools (and there are more than you think!), as well as putting on a show
last Tuesday night in Bentley Lounge.

Around the Corner
Around the corner I have a friend.
In this great city that has no end;
Vet days go by and weeks rush on,
And before I know it a year is gone.
And I never see my old friend's face;
For life is a swift and terrible race.
He knows I like him just as well
As in the days when I rang his bell
And he rang mine. We were younger then;
And now we are busy tired men Tired of playing a foolish game;
Tired of trying to make a name.
" T o m o r r o w , " I say, " I will call on Jim.
Just to show that I'm thinking of h i m . "
But tomorrow comes - and tomorrow goes;
And around the corner - yet miles away...
" H e r e ' s a telegram, s i r . " . . . " J i m died t o d a y ! "
And that's what we get - and deserve in thp ond
Around the corner, a vanished friend.

Injuries In Sports: Another
Part Of The Game
By GARY SIEGEL
What sport do you feel
causes the most injuries to
its players? Most people
seem to feel that football
does. This year many magazines, such as Sporta
ninstrated, have written
many articles conceming
football injuries. Football
injuries should be and indeed are a matter of concem to everyone with a
legitimate interest in the
sports.
The National Athletic Injury/Dlness Reporting System (NAIRS) has compiled
information on college and
high school football injuries
since 1974. These are
NAIRS findings: the most
common injury is to the
knee, however artificial
surfaces are not the reason.
The same number of knee
injuries occur on grass that
happen on artificial surfaces.
According to Mr. Tomasi, head athletic trainer
here at Lock Haven State,
there were only three major
knee injuries suffered by
players here at LHS. Tomasi said last year there
were six knee injuries and
he feels that injuries to the
knee occur in cycles.
NAIRS also found that,
the football helmet is not a
principle reason for injuries, but it does an excellent
job in protecting from head
iniuries^
lomasi said there is no
Poor
epidemic of football injuries, but because sports occupy so much time in
America, that when an athlete suffers a major injury it
spreads very quickly.
Tomasi said there were
less football injuries here at
LHS this year as compared
to last season.
Evidence indicates that
severe injuries to the neck
take place when a player
ducks his head before making contact with his opponent. In ducking, he
extends his neck and the
neck absorbs the blow instead of his equipment. The
helmet neither causes this
or prevents it.
During an exhibition
game against Oakland this
year New England Patriot
wide receiver Daryl Stingley was tackled as he was
many times before, but this
tiem he did not get up and
walk away. Stingley suflfered a severe neck injury
which is most likely permanent, as he might never
walk again.
Tomasi is trying to cut
down the numtier of injuries by protecting the
athlete better. "The officiating in some cases is poor
and the Referees should
throw the flag more to prevent such injuries," Tomasi
said. Those who say
'injuries are part of the
game are not joking anymore.
captured second place.
Lock Haven's Pam Dodger
took third place in round
one and first place in round
two.
Lock Haven's 200-yard
freestyle relay team surrendered a first place to
Gettysburg, by two-tenths
of a second. The Haven's
relay team consisted of
Carole Kepler, Jenny Hipp,
Janet Shearer, and Carol
Duddy. Janet Shearer captured second place in both
the 200 and 500 yard
freestyle. Carole Kepler
had a good day, winning
two first places in the 50
and 100 yard backstroke.
Senior, Selma Bjorklund
placed second in the 50
yard breaststroke and first
in the 100 yard breaststroke. Taking first in the
50 yard freestyle was Carol
Duddy. Duddy also placed
third in the 100 yard

Additional Instructor For Karate
By MKE SHILLING
i n e spirit ot bruce Lee
lives among us in the body
of Brian Escala. Brian's
first karate teacher told him
that, and 13 year-old Brian
had a green belt for form in
the art of Tae-Kwon-Do, a
form of karate.
Now eighteen, Brian is a
freshman at Lock Haven
State College majoring in
Health, Physical Education
and Recreation. He was
born and raised in the
Bronx, New York City, and
now lives in Danville,
Pennsylvania. His hobbies
are drawing, disco dancing,
gymnastics and the martial
arts. At Lock Haven, Brian
is a spotter for the women's
gymnastics team and one of
the two instructors for the
Karate Qub.
According to Brian his
first love is the martial arts.
Brian's mother, who is
oriental, got him interested
in the martial arts at age
nine. Since, Brian lived in
New York City and was in a
street gang, his primary
reason for interest in the
martial arts was for
self-defense. He started
learning the art of karate in
Chinatown from different
people who know the art
well. One of the persons
Brian was learning from
conducted a class of six
people in the streets of the
Bronx. Brian stated, that

motivated and I tried to
copy his moves actions."
At sixteen, Brian started
conditioning his hands by
breaking bricks and boards.
In breaking materials of
this type, Brian says his
body and mind must work
in complete harmony (Tai, Chi-Kh'uan). Besides conditioning Brian also breaks
bricks and boards to show
he has complete control
over his mind and body and
that they do work together.
Brian's fist is two inches
in diameter so he must hit
the bricks with four
hundred pounds of pressure per square inch. What
goes through his mind
before a break? Brian says,
"My mind is blank with the
exception of thinking carefully through the material.
Just before the break my
breathing is heavy as my
adrenalin or Ki builds."
Brian says building the Ki
is the most important phase
of breaking.
Besides a green belt in
form, Brian has a competition or fighting brown belt
in Tae-Kwon-Do and a
black sash in Kong Fo. The
forms of the martial arts
Brian is involved in are
Tae-Kwon-Do and Isahlnm
Karate, white crane and
praying mantis Kong Fu,
and Judo.
When Brian heard that
there was a Karate Club
here at Lock Haven, he
became interested. There
was only instructor who
taught class on Wednesday. Since it would be
beneficial for a karate class
to meet twice a week,
another instructor was
needed. Brian was asked to
be the second instructor.
He enthusiastically said yes
and is now teaching a
Isshinrya Karate class at
Lock Haven on Monday
evenings. Brian teaches
karate at Lock Haven for
enjoyment, but his future
plans are to open a
professional karate school
in New York City or Pennsylvania and become a high
school Physical Education
teacher.

Miller Chosen
New Trustee
SCC Executive Board.
The new siate conducted
the meeting. Lepley told
the Senators and students
attending the meeting of
hopes for the future of his
slate. Some of them
included: trying to get
dances back into Bentley,
trying to get part of the
library open on Friday and
Saturday nights, trying to
get more student discounts
in the area businesses, and
various other proposed
plans for students at Lock
Haven State College. Lepley also said Craig Miller
was appointed as Student
Representative to the LHSC
Board of Trustees.
Other events of the
meeting included the clarification of the lOCC concert
problem. The Social Committee has decided that
there was a verbal and
legally binding agreement
with lOCC, and if the SCC
was not reimbursed for the
advanced advertising for
the concert, they would
have grounds to sue the
group.
The meeting ended with
the announcement of the
first SCC meeting for next
semester; Jan. 24, when
the new SCC administration will announce committee appointments.
By JEFF FI£ISHMAN
Craig Miller, newly appointed Student Trustee,
explains that the reason he
accepted the position is so
he could "help improve the
college and its communications between faculty,
administration and the
students."
The Student Trustee's
function is to "represent
the students at college
board meetings." These
meetings discuss the policy
of the college which entails
topics such as finances and
student life.
Miller is new at this type
of job and explained that he
is just getting started to get
the feel of his new position.
Miller hasn't been able to
meet with Dr. Hamblin yet,
but feels that after the next
board meeting on January
18 he will become more
aware of the direction he
wishes to pursue. Miller
also, "hopes to work with
the SCC and the executive
officers, alot."
Millf^r now a junior will
hold this position until he
graduates. He at one time
was Vice President of Hich
Hall. Miller » resides iii_i
Renovo, Pa. and is majoring in Political Science.
Injured Sophomore Regains Strength Daily
By CLARENCE WASHINGTON
Gary Rosata, a sophomore at LHSC, who fell off
a 70 foot cliff and landed on
his head, said that doctors
told him if it wasn't for his
training with weights, and
being in shape from
boxing, he would have died
from his brutal fall.
Rosata, along with two
friends, also from LHSC,
tried to find a short cut
through the wooded area
just lutside of Lock Haven
after thumbing a ride from
Williamsport. The three
young men came to the cliff
and decided to tum away
because it was to steep to
climb down. As Rosato
turned, he said his foot
slipped and he began his
near fatal fall. Rocky, as he
is known, said he "remembers falling" and was conscious as he bounced down
the steep hill. He also
remembers landing face
first and still remained
semi-conscious.
One ot Kocky's two com-
panions ran eight miles to'
the nearest house for help
while the other scaled down
the cliff to aid his friend.
State police were the first to
arrive on the scene. Rosato
said, "1 heard the one cop
say to the other, he's not
going to make it, but all the
time I was trying to talk to
them." Ambulances finally
came, and about seven
hours after his fall the crew
pulled him up from the
bottom of the cliff.
In addition to head
injuries, Rosato injured his
right elbow. He received 37
stitches in his head and had
to have a plate put in the
right side of his face
because, as the sophomore
said, "My eye was where
my nose is."
Rocky spend four days in
intensive care and a total of
two weeks in the Hospital.
He is now back on campus
and says, "I feel stronger
every day," and he is
looking forward to being
able to lift weights again.
GEORGE STRUNK, former LHSC student, was
found dead yesterday morning by State Police in
East Stroudsburg Holiday inn.

SCOPING i^ lir LETTER O P E N I N G
By D A N W A Y
All of the recent interest in the pledge program of
Kappa Delta Rho fraternity has prompted me to
write this article. This interest comes from
students, faculty, and even a few administrators.
As president of KDR, I feel compelled to write this
article, and as a former pledge master, I feel I'm
qualified to inform any interested parties of the
pledge policies.
Pledging begins every semester on initiation
night. This is a special night because it is the first
step in joining our fraternity. The pledges are
forced to drink grain alcohol until they become
hopelessly drunk and nauseous. When they reach
trtis desired state, we use our Hoover vacuum
cleaner to pump out their stomachs. Any pledges
who don't make it through this ritual are buried in
our cellar so we can avoid being placed on
probation.
Pledging ends at a brotherization meeting. A t
this meeting w e have the pledges eat dog dirt, sit
on cold concrete until they get a hemorrhoid, give
each other an enema, and have sexual relations
with a chihuahua in heat. These festivities are
capped out by paddling their bare behinds until the
welts are so thick they can't fit into their pants.
In between initiation and brotherization we
conduct meaningful activities such as sitting on a
50-lb. block of ice until it melts, a worm eating contest (the record is 53 worms in 15 minutes), swan
diving from the third floor roof, text book burning,
ZTA tosses, and experimenting with LSD.
Anyone interested in further information on our
pledging program can contact me at " t h e local child
daycare center disguised as a f r a t e r n i t y , " or talk to
Brian VanDue in Sullivan Hall. If unable to reach
either of us, come on down next semester and find
out first-hand.
COMMENTARY
By SHELLEY H t C K
Rules are rules, but why is Russell Hall so strict?
In the handbook it states that North Hall, Woolridge Hall, H i g h Hall & Russeli Hall are supposed
to all have the same visitation, but they don't. A l l
visitation has been changed in each hall including
Russell, however, ours is so strict.
For example, last week I was downstairs in
Russell lobby. A guy came to visit one of the girls
on first floor. It was 6:28 and she was not allowed to
take him to her room until 6:30. W e feel this is
getting a little picky considering M c E n t i r e starts
their visiting at 3:00 in the afternoon. W e would
like to know why M c E n t i r e , an all girls dorm, is
more lenient with their visitation than Russell, also
an all girls dorm?

Dear Editor,
There is something that
goes on at LHSC that
bothers me very deeply.
This is the double standard
that is a very apparent in
the dormitories. The victims of this double standard
are us Freshmen, who are
getting yelled at for talking
with our door open, or
playing our stereo too loud.
Yet the upperclassmen tum
up their stereos, at 8:00 in
the morning, when many
people are still sleeping,
and they blast it at night
and leave their doors open.
We Freshmen are told to
tum it down and close the
door, or we'll have to "go
see Bossert." The upperclassmen go screaming and
yelling down the hall to tell
someone they're wanted on
the phone, because they're
too lazy to go to the room
and give the message, or
they have to tell their friend
at the end of the hall what
happened when she and
John had a fight last
evening. We Freshmen are
told to go to the person's
room and give them the
message, or we'll have to
"go see Bossert." Are the
counselors afraid of the
upperclassmen? Do they
get to play bigtime
counselor by yelling at the
"gullible" Freshmen?
I, for one, as many others
1 have spoken to on this
subject, am sick and tired
of this ill-treatment of
Freshmen. What rules
apply to Freshmen are
supposed to apply to
EVERYONE. We are weary
and disgusted of being
picked on by counselors for
some stupid little thing.
Not until this double
standard is evaporated and
rules and regulations applied to everyone, will we
follow them. We'll just be
the followers that Freshmen are customized as
being, and only follow the
rules that everyone else
follows. Maybe then things
will shape up.

"Poor Professor Heller," an original one-act comedy by LHSC student, poet,
and Dlavwright Joe Pagana, will be presented on campus this weekend^
^ 7 £ ^ \ ^ ; ^ X e c t e d by Professor Larry Lebin, features students Jayne Bolduc,
Dan V^ay, Lori Jordan, and Joe DiDonato. In the play, Pagana uses the
bomb-scare theme to bring up the dilemma of student vs. incompetent teacher.
Elaine played by Ms. Bolduc, is an earnest student who is trying desperately
to pass her math course, but is failing because of her confusing professor^ As a
last-ditch effort to pass, she is urged by Toad (Dan Way to phone in a bombthreat The plot is further entangled when the professor (Joe DiDonato) accuses
Leda, a good student (played by M s . Jordan) of making the bomb threat.
The play goes on to examine, in a humorous fashion, the flaws of both
professor and student, with three types of students characterized: the failing
student the witty worldly-wise student, and the 4.0 student. Both sides of the
coin are explored'in the problem area of student-professor relations.
The play will be running Fri.-Sun. at 9:00 pm in the PUB Conference Room
(121).
A play of a different genre is " F r e e to Be . . . You and M e , " this year's touring
children's show. " F r e e to Be . . . You and M e " is a bright, charming, and w i t t y
presentation designed to break the stereotypical sex roles presented in most
children's stories, but in an engaging and n o n - " p r e a c h y " manner. The
production unfolds through quick, humorous skits interspersed with songs.
The cast includes Kathy Clyde, Greg McCracken, Aaron Battle, Gwen H u m mel, T. J. Towne, Kalyn Shaible, Jack Sohnleitner, and Jim Wortman on guitar.
Rick Kline directed the production, assisted by D. J. Akeley and Darsell
Brittingham. The cast has spent a long, hard week touring all the area elementary schools (and there are more than you think!), as well as putting on a show
last Tuesday night in Bentley Lounge.

" T h e Other Side of
M i d n i g h t , " starring

Around the Corner
Around the corner I have a friend.
In this great city that has no end;
Vet days go by and weeks rush on,
And before I know it a year is gone.
And I never see my old friend's face;
For life is a swift and terrible race.
He knows I like him just as well
As in the days when I rang his bell
And he rang mine. We were younger then;
And now we are busy tired men Tired of playing a foolish game;
Tired of trying to make a name.
" T o m o r r o w , " I say, " I will call on Jim.
Just to show that I'm thinking of h i m . "
But tomorrow comes - and tomorrow goes;
And around the corner - yet miles away...
" H e r e ' s a telegram, s i r . " . . . " J i m died t o d a y ! "
And that's what we get - and deserve in thp ond
Around the corner, a vanished friend.

Injuries In Sports: Another
Part Of The Game
By GARY SIEGEL
What sport do you feel
causes the most injuries to
its players? Most people
seem to feel that football
does. This year many magazines, such as Sporta
ninstrated, have written
many articles conceming
football injuries. Football
injuries should be and indeed are a matter of concem to everyone with a
legitimate interest in the
sports.
The National Athletic Injury/Dlness Reporting System (NAIRS) has compiled
information on college and
high school football injuries
since 1974. These are
NAIRS findings: the most
common injury is to the
knee, however artificial
surfaces are not the reason.
The same number of knee
injuries occur on grass that
happen on artificial surfaces.
According to Mr. Tomasi, head athletic trainer
here at Lock Haven State,
there were only three major
knee injuries suffered by
players here at LHS. Tomasi said last year there
were six knee injuries and
he feels that injuries to the
knee occur in cycles.
NAIRS also found that,
the football helmet is not a
principle reason for injuries, but it does an excellent
job in protecting from head
iniuries^
lomasi said there is no
Poor
epidemic of football injuries, but because sports occupy so much time in
America, that when an athlete suffers a major injury it
spreads very quickly.
Tomasi said there were
less football injuries here at
LHS this year as compared
to last season.
Evidence indicates that
severe injuries to the neck
take place when a player
ducks his head before making contact with his opponent. In ducking, he
extends his neck and the
neck absorbs the blow instead of his equipment. The
helmet neither causes this
or prevents it.
During an exhibition
game against Oakland this
year New England Patriot
wide receiver Daryl Stingley was tackled as he was
many times before, but this
tiem he did not get up and
walk away. Stingley suflfered a severe neck injury
which is most likely permanent, as he might never
walk again.
Tomasi is trying to cut
down the numtier of injuries by protecting the
athlete better. "The officiating in some cases is poor
and the Referees should
throw the flag more to prevent such injuries," Tomasi
said. Those who say
'injuries are part of the
game are not joking anymore.
captured second place.
Lock Haven's Pam Dodger
took third place in round
one and first place in round
two.
Lock Haven's 200-yard
freestyle relay team surrendered a first place to
Gettysburg, by two-tenths
of a second. The Haven's
relay team consisted of

Additional Instructor For Karate
By MKE SHILLING
i n e spirit ot bruce Lee
lives among us in the body
of Brian Escala. Brian's
first karate teacher told him
that, and 13 year-old Brian
had a green belt for form in
the art of Tae-Kwon-Do, a
form of karate.
Now eighteen, Brian is a
freshman at Lock Haven
State College majoring in
Health, Physical Education
and Recreation. He was
born and raised in the
Bronx, New York City, and
now lives in Danville,
Pennsylvania. His hobbies
are drawing, disco dancing,
gymnastics and the martial
arts. At Lock Haven, Brian
is a spotter for the women's
gymnastics team and one of
the two instructors for the
Karate Qub.
According to Brian his
first love is the martial arts.
Brian's mother, who is
oriental, got him interested
in the martial arts at age
nine. Since, Brian lived in
New York City and was in a
street gang, his primary
reason for interest in the
martial arts was for
self-defense. He started
learning the art of karate in
Chinatown from different
people who know the art
well. One of the persons
Brian was learning from
conducted a class of six
people in the streets of the
Bronx. Brian stated, that
" B r u c e Lee got me
motivated and I tried to
copy his moves actions."
At sixteen, Brian started
conditioning his hands by
breaking bricks and boards.
In breaking materials of
this type, Brian says his
body and mind must work
in complete harmony (Tai, Chi-Kh'uan). Besides conditioning Brian also breaks
bricks and boards to show
he has complete control
over his mind and body and
that they do work together.
Brian's fist is two inches
in diameter so he must hit
the bricks with four
hundred pounds of pressure per square inch. What
goes through his mind
before a break? Brian says,
"My mind is blank with the
exception of thinking carefully through the material.
Just before the break my
breathing is heavy as my
adrenalin or Ki builds."
Brian says building the Ki
is the most important phase
of breaking.
Besides a green belt in
form, Brian has a competition or fighting brown belt
in Tae-Kwon-Do and a
black sash in Kong Fo. The
forms of the martial arts
Brian is involved in are
Tae-Kwon-Do and Isahlnm
Karate, white crane and
praying mantis Kong Fu,
and Judo.
When Brian heard that
there was a Karate Club
here at Lock Haven, he
became interested. There
was only instructor who
taught class on Wednesday. Since it would be
beneficial for a karate class
to meet twice a week,
another instructor was
needed. Brian was asked to
be the second instructor.
He enthusiastically said yes
and is now teaching a
Isshinrya Karate class at
Lock Haven on Monday
evenings. Brian teaches
karate at Lock Haven for
enjoyment, but his future
plans are to open a
professional karate school
in New York City or Pennsylvania and become a high
school Physical Education
teacher.
