Rally For State Colleges
by RON JURY

— _ — _

In a s t a t e which has a
law setting up a tuition free
college system, there is something wrong when they (the
legislature) are allowed to call
it by another name—basic fee—
and collect it.
Thursday a reported crowd
of 5,000 s t u d e n t s , more realistically 3,000, from all 13
state colleges and one university, converged on the capital
steps in Harrisburg for what
was called 'State
College
Day.'
The main idea of the
afternoon rtogram, which began
at 2 p. m. in a drizzling rain,
was centered on the need for
more financial support for the
s t a t e instituions.
The program began with
cheers from the colleges represented in the crowd.
The
crowd then started chanting,
" T h e whole s t a t e ' s b r o k e . "
However, this was followed by
one round of an obsenity cheer.
The
afternoon's
first
speaker was Bryan Ziegler,
president of the Pennsylvania
State Association of Student
Governnx'".r.'
from Mansfield
State College.
He said we were all here
to show our concern for the
future of fhe s t a t e c o l l e g e s .
T h i s was to be a united voice
to the people of Pennsylvania.
Next, Dale Riechli, president of the
Student Government Association at
East
Stroudsburg
State
College,
emphasized that this was no
longer j u s t a student effort.
He reported that 13 of the
presidents of the state col leges were present, with the
other two having previous committments.
We have the
support, he said, of American
L e g i o n s , and the Chamber of
Commerce, this is not just
our effort.
He went on to explain that
the present tuition raise has
merely kept the institutions
open,
state owned and state related
The difference between
s t a t e owned and state related
institutions
was
pointed
out. State owned colleges are
controlled by the legislature
whereas s t a t e related institutions and universities receive
money from the legislature,
but are not responsible to
them for where their money
gees.
The state-owned colleges
have been called the ' s t e p children' of Pennsylvania, be c a u s e they are receiving s e c ond best.
Riechli, pointed out, that
258 notices were sent out to
legislators and only 32 had
responded. Of the 32 responding, only eight said they would
meet with students in their
offices.
"Education,"
he
said,
" i s at a crossroads in Pennsylvania and they better go in
the right d i r e c t i o n . "
c
Pennsyl»'''nia ranks 45th
in the nation in per capita income spent on higher education.

Dr. James Oemial, president of Clarion State College
stated that the purpose of the
state colleges was " t o guarantee an education to those
who could not p a y . " He said he
is working under the
same
appropriation as last year and
the state had to add something
to the budget sothev put the
"bite
on
the s t u d e n t s . "
The basic fee, which is a
semantic legality , has more
than doubled in recent years.
He pointed to the rise in
fees and the decline in financial aid. Ninety-five per cent
of the s t u d e n t s attending these
state colleges are native
Pennsylvanians and they must
make-up
this
difference.
Calling the day a " r e s ponsible exercise of student
c o n c e r n , " Dr. Gemial, noted
that without funds programs
can't continue and improvements
can't c o n t i n u e . "
We need tax
reform to place the burden on
those with the ability to p a y . "
The [resident of the faculty at California State College,
Dr. Gabel Betz, criticised the
legislature for not doing their
job and not finding the funds to
support the s t a t e owned institutions. He said we should get
out and support candidates in
the coming elections who in turn
support the s t a t e c o l l e g e s , regardless of aprty.
The president of the Council of Alumni, Samuel Bujyelal,
a graduate of Indiana University,
said that the over 100,000 alumni of the s t a t e colleges give
their support to this movement.
One of the few legislators
present, Fred Hobbes, a member of the committee on Higher
Education which is responsible
for the P a . Higher Education
A s s i s t a n c e Agency, said he
r e s p e c t s people who become
involved; however, too often
students have been more interested in Saturday's heroes than
Monday's c l a s s e s .
Assemblyman Robert Wise,
of the Hosse Education Commi t t e e , stated if taxes can't be
raised then the state colleges
should receive a bigger slice
of the funds are a v a i l a b l e .
Evans Smith, the President of Cheyney S.C_ student
government, s a i d " w h a t we have
now is a choice between a
bad system or worse. We are
now
surrounded
by
state
blunders.
Charles Keller, representative of the Association of
State College Organizations,
informed
the students that
they are working for the legislation to help state c o l l e g e s .
For example, he pointed out
their support of Act 13 which
gives greater autonomy to the
state
colleges
and
their
p r e s i d e n t s , " E d u c a t i o n is one
of the prime functions of Ihe
government," he s a i d , " a n d
we must speak with one voice
to stop the political manuvering."
George
Zemo, of
the
Faculty Senate at California

State, spoke of cooperation
on everyones part to get
something
done.
The final speaker of the
program was Mclvin McLaughlin,
first vice president of the Student Government Association at
West Chester State.
He summed up the d a y ' s
activities in the statement thai
"wc have proven one thing, if
we are the lower level, I challenge the other institutions to do
as w e l l . "
When Dr. Francis N. Hamblin was questioned about the
afternoon, he called it a very
turn out.
He considered the
whole program " g r e a t . "
On the whole, the entire day
was very orderly, and there
were no incidents. The capital
police reported that the crowd
was most cooperative.
Even though the rain drove
some of the crowd away, schools
such as West Chester State s e n t
16 b u s e s and had lo turn away
another 200 student.s lor lack of
transporatation.
On the toher
hand, Bloonisbuig sent only 2 7
students lo the rally.
LHS ranked a little below
average with four b u s e s and two
car loads.

appointment to the Pennsylvania
Board of T r u s t e e s , which super\ i s r s the activities of the entire Pennsylvania State College
system.
•iitation of a plaque
by the B'nai B'rith followed
Rosenn's speech, Toastmasler
A.H. Claster said this is " n o t
a measure of our esteem only
a token of our regard."
Miss Ciross accepted the
plaque with great appreciation
as she laughingly said she was
"grateful
for
the
cheerful
lalsehoods you have perpetrated."
She noted the two ways lo
pr;;ctice jorunalism; 1) to rep c t -ipot news or 2) to report
whal happens in t'le community.
She took the second course of
action.
This was evidenced when
the State wanted to close LHS
and ise it for a hospital durinu
its early y e a r s . The
h.xpress
helped to prevent the transference of the college into something e l s e .
Other
evidence
of
her
journalistic ability to get things
done is found in the creation

and the opening of the Kcysl one

the dinner ;i

LHS Harriers Finish
Disappointing Third
Team balance on the part of
both Edinboro and Indiana offset
high finishes by Lock Haven's
first three runners to dethrone
the E a g l e s as District 18 cross
country champs on Saturday at
Gannon College.
Edinboro and Indiana shared
the championship, both scoring
51 p o i n t s , while LHS placed
third with 85 points, eight l e s s
than California, and 15 less than
their
nemisis
Slippery Rock.
The r a c e , 4.7 5 miles through
grassy fields and a quarter-mile
long marsh, was a sizzler from
the very s t a r t . Dave Antagnoli
of Edinboro, Jake Sorg of Indiana, and Steve Podgajny and
Dave Mosebrook of Lock Haven
pulled away from the pack after
about a mile, setting a torrid
pace.
About half-way through the
r a c e , Podgajny and Antagnoli
made it a two-man r a c e . Antagnoli pulled away with ^ little
more than a mile to go and successfully defended his individual title after a tremendous battle with Podgajny.
Mosebrook held fourth place
throughout the race, and was
never headed as he closed out
h i s District 18 career with s e cond, third, and fourth place fin i s h e s to his c r e d i t .
After the first four runners,
a group of ubout eight fought
for places througliout the r a c e .
Included ,n that group with Nibs
Gordon of Lock Haven who finished seventh, moving up from
tenth in the last 600 yards. Indiana lost its chance to win the
meet in this group when it had
runners in seventh and eighth

with 600 yards to go. In a last
finish they placed tenth and eleventh.
Rounding out the scoring for
the Bald Eagles were Carl Kingaman, 34th, and Steve Harnish,
38th. Bothered by a bad knee,
Cieorge Bower placed 44th. fhe
J.V. suffered a 3-0 l o s s , which
was a great improvement over
previous y e a r i .
The next three games are
all home and are Elizabethtown
on Oct. 20th, Penn State on
Oct. 24th, and E a s t Stroudsburg
on Oct. 27th.
Commenting on the meet.
Coach Jim Dolan said, " T h i s
meet gets tougher every year.
Edinboro
did as
1 thouglit
they would. Indiana surprised
me, by doing so well. Our men
ran well; I was pleased with
them.
Podgajny,
Mosebrook,
Gordon, and Harnish ran tremendous
races.
Harinsh
is
just getting into shape after
h i s knee injury. Klingaman and
Bower ran good r a c e s , considering they were both slowed hy
injuries. A third place team
finish in this race is a pretty
fine accomplishment!"
Dai. Moriarty
of
Point
Park summed up the competition
well after the race. After placing
1st a s a freshman, 2nd as a
sophomore, 4th as a junior, and
21st this year, all he could say
was " I ' m sure glad I'm graduating."
By placing in the top ten,
Podgajny, Mosebrook and Gordon qualified for the national
championships to be held in
Liberty, Missouri in November.

Girls Extend
Streak to 28
The
Lock
Haven
State
girls' hockey team has recently
continued their winning streak to
28 games, winning over Bucknell
and
Susquehanna,
and
last
week tieing West Chester State
1-1.
The girls traveled to Bucknell to take an overwhelming
10-0 victory with Mary Overington making 5 of the g o a l s . In the
same week, they went to Susquehanna and came home with
a scor^e of varsity 3-0, J.V.
12-0. During this J.V. game,
the play period was dominated
by the younger E a g e l e t t e s whose
goalie,
Becky
Carr,
rarely
even saw the ball.
The West Chester State
game played at home on Oct.
13 and drawing a large crowd,
didn't come as e a s y to the Lock
Haven team. Barb Yoos scored
Lock Haven's only goal within
the first five minutes of play,
giving the team more confidence
and less pressure. An outstanding defensive game was played
by both Diane Webster and Linda
Shifflet, Dr. Smith commented,
"Our defense deserves a great
deal of credit in holding West
C h e s t e r . " Everyone agreed who
saw this game that it was the
best game Lock Haven has
played this fall. Both teams
played a very fast and skilled
game. This is the 3rd year in
a row that Lock Haven and
West Chester have tied.

Boosters Pull Ufket
Beat ESSC, 3-7
" T h i s is my greatest thrill
at Lock Haven S t a t e , " were the
words of Coach Karl T. Herrmann
after the LHS soccer team upset
East Stroudsburg State 3-1 Saturday at East Stroudsburg. ESSC
was the seventh ranked team in
the East and LHS had not defeated them in eleven y e a r s .
" T h i s also has to be the
greatest thrill for the p l a y e r s , "
said the coach a s he comrrented
on the tremendous game the entire team played. "We needed an
errorless game from all and that
is exactly what we got. They
moved the ball extremely well
and j u s t outhustled ESSC to the
b a l l , " added the coach.
Keith Harmon got the Eagles
on the board first when, with
14:40 left in the first quarter, he
took a cross kick from Jim Sleicher and headed a goal past the
ESSC goalie from five yards out.
Galen Hess added to the pressure in the second period, by taking a perfect pass from reserve
Ken Wolf, and connecting on a
" p i c t u r e p l a y " sliding kick from
eight yards away. This made the
score 2-0 at halftime and the
home crowd was shocked.
A scoreless third quarter
was marlced by a tremendous

defense of LHS. This was the
only period in which the Eagles
were outshot, but All-American
goalie, Bruce Parkhill, and the
rugged fullback line of George
Magliaro, Don Copeland, and
Tom E l l i s , all of them playing
their finest game of the s e a s o n ,
turned back any ESSC scoring
threat that occurred. Also the
six halfbacks have to be cited
for covering the center of the
field extremely well.
ESSC got a ray of hope at
17:30 of the fourth period when
John H e s s , standing in the right
place after a great batted save
by Parkhill, booted one back at
him for their only score, LHS
played inspired ball the remainger of the game and outhustled
ESSC.
