Forum held on PUB expansion project
By Biff Miller
StaffReporter

A new Parsons Union Building will
have a positive impact for years and
years, said the NUTECH architects at the
PUB Expansion open forum.
The forum was held on Wednesday
night, giving students a chance to ask
questions about the PUB Expansion
Project expected to take place if the
referendum is passed next week.
The futuristic PUB would provide
students with a quality environment as
well as invite the community to "come
together" wilh the campus, said Manny
Cunard, a consultant to the project.

A t the forum, NUTECH presented
designs of the different levels of the new
PUB.
The new PUB will have an increased
number of windows for greater visability,
said Richard DeGerre of NUTECH.
The lower level will include a rental
shop, a larger recreation room, television
lounge, and commuter lounge.
Cunard said the commuter lounge "will
bring the commuter population a lot
closer to the campus than they are
today."
It will allow sufficient security of
clothes and books, he said.
Another level will include a larger
bookstore, computer cluster, meeting
rooms, banquet room, cafeteria, and

main lobby, said DeGerre.
The main lobby will serve as a
primary gathering area and will be critical
to the campus, said Cunard.
Cunard also said, "a true student union
has to have a fireplace" and NUTECH
has included one in the project.
The new PUB features two balconies.
A third balcony giving students a scenic
view of the river is being considered, said
DeGerre.
The futuristic PUB will appear more
homey, without a lot of flourescent
lights and concrete, said Cunard.
LHU plans to spend the set total of
$3.5 million on the project
NUTECH has not had a problem
slaying within the set cost of the PUB

Expansion Project
"Everything can be done within the
price range," said DeGerre.
The project is expected to start in Fall
1989, if the referendum passes.
"Realistically speaking, the only
problem we would have with the project
would be running into winter," said
DeGen^.
The current services of the PUB would
temporarily relocate until the building is
completed, said Cunard.
"Once the new building is built, we're
going to say, 'How did we ever survive
in that old building?'," said Leiand
Spangler, director of the PUB.
Student voting on the referendum will
take place April 20,21, 24, and 25.

Letter to the Editor:
Dear Editor:
I am writing in order to present some ideas to consider before voting on the PUB expansion project. While I believe that this campus is in desperate need of more activities, I don't
believe that the PUB expansion is the answer.
First of all, the Price Auditorium Renovation Project has been in process since at least
the fall of 1986 when I entered LHU as a freshman. It is now 1989. How long does it take
to renovate a building, and how long wiU we have to wait for the expansion of the PUB to
be competed?
Second, we need to do something to keep the rising costs of tuition and book fees down
here at LHU. Perhaps, since this money belongs to the students, we should use it as an advance on next semester's tuition fee or reduce the fee for books and activities.
Third, do we really need a banquet hall? The idea is nice, but is it necessary? The wganization and clubs who plan to use it won't really save a lot of money because the fee for a catering service must be considered for the function's budget.
Fourth, instead of expanding the PUB, let's use the money to create more campus employment opportimities. Pay the students a small fee to work in the bookstore and make the
jobs stricdy campus employment since woric-study students get priority for most of the other job opportunities on campus.
Finally, we could also develop an agreementfinomthe professors on this campus to use
the same textbooks for several semesters and use the money to buy back the books, thus
cutting out the middle man and keeping the cost of books at a more reasonable rate.
In conclusion, I would like to encourage everyone on this campus to vote on the PUB
project However, also consider the other options available and the other needs we as students have to consider.
Improved activities are needed, but will the PUB expansion really create these activities
and take care of the problems on this campus? See you in voting day!

Dear Editor:
On April 8,1989, several university students received a criminal u-espass charge for
playing frisbee in the field hockey field. The field is not posted the signs and the only
barriers is an orange fence at the one end of the field. The field is exposed to the street
along an entire side. Just before the students were cited for merely throwing a frisbee in
bare feet several softball playing sUidents were praticing in their cleats and were not cited.
Not that it matters, because the field is open and students should be able to use it if they
wish. Since all students pay fees for for the upkeep of the field, why should it be
resb-icted to the field hockey only? why not let the students population at large be free to
enjoy the field in the off-season? We are very distressed wiUi Uiis situation and would like
answers and action immediately!

Walker to make exit from college almost 16 years after starting
By Kristin Josephson
StaffReporter

Bruce Walker, treasurer of the Student
Coorperative Council, started in Lock
Haven in 1973 and is now making plans for
graduation.
Walker first came to Lock Haven in 1973
and stayed for only two years. He returned
in 1977 and had to leave due to lack of
funds.
For the next few years Walker worked and
in 1986 he came back to Lock Haven to
complete his education.
Walker will graduate with a triple major in
mathematics/computer
science,
business/computer science, and management
science.
Walker pains to use his talents to obtain a

job as a software engineer or systems
analyst. He already has a job possibility in
Raleigh, North Carolina and will go for an
interview later this month.
When asked about how Lock Haven has
changed since he first came to school, he
said the size is a major difference. Back in
1977 there were 1,500 students compaed to
the current 3,000.
He went on to say that the facilities that
were sufficient then are now inadequate and
he supports the PUB expansion. Few adults
on campus are for the expansion, said
Walker.
Being treasurer of SCC, Walker is aware
of thefinancialaspects of the expansion and
assures us that the money will not come out
of the activity fee, but rather the
community fee and will be more than worth
it.

Cemetery vandalized
By Emilee Groce
Co-News Editor
Seventy-three tombstones were vandalized
in the Highland Cemetery, resulting in
damages of an excess of $5,000, said Officer
Joe Sanders of the Lock Haven City Police
Department
Campus Law Enforcement is working
with state and city police on the case because
of the proximity of the cemetery to campus,
located behind Bentley Dining Hall.
"A lot of people would assume it is
college kids because the cemetery is so close
to campus, but there are no suspects as of
yet," said Lieutenant Dennis B. Grenninger

of Campus Law Enforcement.
The incident is considered a third-degree
felony, carrying a maximum sentence of
seven year jail term and fine of $15,000, said
Sanders.
The vandalism occiured sometime over the
last three weeks, said Grenninger.
The tombstones vandalized ranged in size
from small marble markers to large
monumental tombstones, said Grenninger,
which leads police to think that more than
one person is involved in the incident
The Cemetery Association is looking for
anyone who would be willing to help set the
tombstones aright, said Sanders. Anyone
interested should call Mr. Williams at
748-3318.

"CALM ANIMALS" is the debut album

production and content.

It wasn't until 1980 that Cy Curnin,
Rupert Greenall and Adam Woods found
the guitarist they had been looking for in
Jamie West-Oram.
With the emphasis on songwriting the
band rehearsed daily in a derelict factory by,
the River Thames in South East London,
sculpting the sounds that came naturally
to them.
By the end of the year the band found
themselves at the edge of the limelight
with the release of their first single, "Lost
Planes."
This quirky and original independently
released record attracted major label interest

and the band was signed by MCA.
On their early albums The Fixx sang of
the fragility of peace in a nuclear age and
explored the conflicts that possess us as
individuals and the dangers of focusing
these emotions on the banners of
nationalism ("Red Skies," "Stand or
Fall").
On later albums. The Fixx evolved their
message to one of hope, optimism and
.belief in self ("One Thing Leads To
Another," "Are We Ourselves," "Secret
Separation").
Determined to record the new album
with a more direct approach, the band

enlisted Bill Wittman (Pat Benatar, The

themselves to the island of Montserrat in
the Caribbean to record "CALM

The hero of the new album is the

freedom but is alert to the consequences.
From their early days The Fixx's
message was one of awareness. Like the

On the lighter side... Questions and comments on commitments
By Abby A. Mylin
Features Columnist
Recently when I caught myself singing
"It's crazy but it's true...I only want to be
with you," and actually smiling to myself, I
looked in the mirror and much to my disti-ess
it was happening-oh gag and yuk.
I thought I'd developed huge enough
callouses on my heart so that nothing short
of a pumice stone could get at it.
Obviously, we're messing wilh something
bigger here than my illlusionary callouses.
So, with this revelation I pondered quite a
bit on this word "commitmcnt"-and with no
result found, I did draw a few interesting
conclusions.
These days you're expected to be
commited to being comrruted from the lime
you crawl out of the crib until you make
your hike to heaven.
Like a few other choice words-love,
happiness, faiih...ihc word at hand certainly
is one that is defined by your personal
culturization.
I wouldn't expect the guys growing up on
the Harlem playgrounds to have the same
perspective on commitent as the
boy-next-door yuppie.
According to societal standards. Normal
Norm should be commited to his career,
health, religion, friends, hobbies, family.

parents, personal fitness, clubs...just to
skim the scum of this idealistic surface.
But the term "commitment" really doesn't
come to full circle until it's rolled off your
romantic interest's tongue.
Suddenly, it becomes a dangerous piece of
syntax.
If it could only be clearly defined, then
nooooo problem, but really it's as vague as
it's complimentary term, love.
From my own experience, anyone who
messes wilh it creates their own definition.
Webster has really copped out herein
defining commitment loo, wilh his "to put
in charge of trust" thing.
Weak, weak, weak...I could've came up

Nationally ranked Lady Eagles softball drops two to Bloomsburg
By Merritt La Porta
Sports Reporter

Bloomsburg University came to
town Thursday afternoon and showed
the Lady Eagle softball team why
they're ranked fourth in the nation as
they swept a doubleheader, 2-0 and 3-0.
Game one remained scoreless until
Bloomsburg broke out in the fifth
inning.
The Lady Huskies struck for four
hits off Sandy Hess and scored two
runs before the Lady Eagles could end
the inning.
The closest LHU came to getting on
the board was in the third when Lisa
Kostantewicz singled and Vicki

DiVittorio sacrificed her over to
second. However, Kostantewicz was
picked off second and the rally was
stifled.
Hess finished the game with eight
strikeouts and three walks while
allowing five hits.
Game two saw the Lady Huskies
jump out to a quick 1-0 lead in the
first inning off pitcher Jana
Zimmerman. They added two more in
the fourth and held on for the victory.
Once again the Lady Eagles had a
prime opportunity to get on the board
in the fifth inning following
back-to-back singles by Sue Weller and
Karen Brown. They both moved up
one base following a passed ball and

Jennifer Huntzinger reached first safely
on an error by the second baseman.
Wilh the bases loaded and none out,
Kostantewicz popped up and confusion
on the base path led to two LHU
runners being thrown out at home.
Bloom regained their composure and
shut down the Lady Eagles' bats for the
rest of the game.
Zimmerman gave up 12 Huslcie hits
while striking out two and walking
one.
"You have to credit Bloomsburg,"
said head coach Wayne Allison. "They
attacked the ball, they're batting .350
as a team, they made the fundamental
plays and they capitalized on their
scoring opponunilies."

Bald Eagle baseball: never the home team
By Rob Yoegel
Sports Columnist
Thank God I'm back on the sports
page...
After a not so lengthy stay on the
features page I have decided (which by the
way wasn't hard) to come back home to
the page that I belong to.
Now that I'm back where I belong it's
time to listen once again to my words of
zanny and sometimes confusing sports
rap.
Baseball season is in full swing now.
I think I realized that after attending a
fantasy baseball league draft last Sunday
from seven in the moming to one that
'afternoon (sorry guys, I don't know how
to spell Rotiseree... whatever).
Well now that I realized the boys of
summer are back and freezing to death
most of the time while they play the
early parts of their seasons, I decided to
go to a sports Urivia night at a hotel that
I probably can't mention because it
would be a plug.
Well, my baseball knowledge may
need to be polished up a little. The only
question I got right was college
basketball, it figures.
This fantasy baseball league I'm
involved in will hopefully make me
watch more games and help me calch up
on what I may need to know or
remember.

Baseball, wow what a sport!
Wherever you go, from April to
October someone, somewhere is playing
America's pastime.
Major leaguers to little leaguers you
are sure to at least run into one game
some time during the seven month
season.
Oh yes, along wilh baseball comes
softball.
I never quite figured out why softball
was called what it is because I play
softball in the summer and when a line
drive comes ripping at me while I'm
playing second base,man does it hurt
when I snare it down from at least ten
feet above my head (okay, maybe not ten
feet).
Lock Haven University has both
baseball and softball at its finest.
The LHU men are among the top of
the PSAC West and have already earned a
split with national power Slippery Rock
on the road.
The LHU Lady Eagle softball team are
among the best in the nation and have
proven it already.
Ranked tenth in the nation along with
finishing second in the NCAA
tournament last spring, the ladies keep
soaring high and should continue to do
so.
What is special about these sports
teams are that when someone mentions
playing "on the road" to them, they may
start to wonder.

Well alright, the softball team does
play half or so of their games up at
Lawrence Field, but the men do play in
central Pennsylvania's baseball capital,
Woohich.
Last year I wondered who would be
interested in having the boys brought
closer to home, the responses weren't
too overwhelming.
I don't know why people didn't
respond, but hey they deserve to play at
the college they represent
And make no mistake the softball team
does too.
A lot of people have groaned about the
installment of ihe new security system in
the dormitories.
This is not a gripe, simply because I
can't in the column, it wouldn't be fair.
But let's face it, wilh the money we
spent for that, we probably could have
kept Lawrence Field in great shape while
the football players practiced on it,
refurbished the intramural field so that
the baseball team could use it, and maybe
just maybe, find some place that the
recreational baseball and softball players
could enjoy themselves too.
Let's think about it, and if you decide
you agree, maybe we can do something.
If you don't think it'll work to gripe
about it then hey that's alright, because
you're probably right; but let's at least
give the support to the men and women
of spring just like we do to those of the
winter and fall.

sometimes a team as good as Bloom
can, "make you look like you're not
playing very well at all."
This weekend the team is on the road
to play in the SUNY Cortland
Tournament.
Allison calls the
tournament a test of the team's
character.
"The way we come out of this
weekend will tell where we stand and
where we're going," he commented. "I
will be very disappointed if the girls
continue to play down, like they are
now."
"We just didn't execute at the plate
or in the field very well," he added.
Bloomsburg is currently ranked
fourth in the nation while LHU is
ranked tenth and according to Allison,

Lacrosse
loses, 20-9
By Lisa Newmiller
Sports Reporter

The Lady Eagles lacrosse team fought
fiercely Wednesday but fell to the
nationally ranked Lady Marauders of
Millersville, 20-9.
The Lady Marauders came out strong;
taking a 6-0 lead in a little over ten
minutes.
Finally, the Lady Eagles Kenna
Wericiser lit up the scoreboard with her
fourdi goal of the season at the 12:04
mark. Peggy Buckmaster, Katrina
Heebner, and Denise Pileggi added goals
for LHU in the first half, which ended at
10-4 in favor of Millersville.
The second half began on therightfoot
for the Lady Eagles as sophomore Bridget
Gillespie scored her first goal of the
game.
The Lady Maurauders answered right
back with four quick goals, before
Buckamaster scored her second goal to
make close the gap 14-6.
Three more goals would get past the
Haven, but they were not ready to die.
Heebner had two more goals in the half.
The Haven fought furiously until the
final seconds when Gillespie had her
second goal at the :34 mark. It proved
not to be enough for the Haven this day,
they fell 20-9.
Lady Eagle Head Coach Bridget Roun
said it was a fine team effort "The game
was a lot closer than the score portrayed."
"The defense and the attack came
together as a whole," said Assistant
Coach Penny Kempf.
The Lady Eagles will take to the field
again Saturday, when they host East
Stroudsburg at 1 p.m.

IMADESUtr^^^"^
FOR COLLEGE

When my friends and I graduated
from high school, we all took part-time
jobs to pay for college.
They ended up in car washes and
hamburger joints, putting in long hours
for little pay.
Not me. My job takes just one
weekend a month and two weeks a year.
Yet, Fm earning $18,000 for college.
Because I joined my local Army
National Guard.
They're the people who help our
state durmg emergencies like huiricanes andfloods.They're also an
important part of our country's military
defense.
So, since I'm helping them do such
an important job, they're helping me
make it through school.

99

As soon as I finished Advanced
Training, the Guard gave me a cash
bonus of $2,000. I'm also getting
another $5,000 for tuition and books,
thanks to the New GI Bill.
Not to mention my monthly Army
Guard paychecks. They'll add up to
more than $11,000 over the six years
Fm in the Guard.
And if I take out a college loan, the
Guard will help me pay it back—up to
$1,500 a year, plus interest.
It all adds up to $18,000-or more
—for college for just a little of my time.
And that's a heck of a better deal than
any car wash will give you.
