Local AFSCME chapter receives award
by Amy Satkofsky
Eagle Eye News Editor_
The American Federation of State,
County, and Municipal
Employees
(AFSCME) Local 2360, which consists of
unionized University employees, was
recently awarded a bronze level plaque
from the National Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
Society for their participation in the 1996
MS Walk.
The AFSCME team, consisting of 14
members, walked their way into the bronze
level position by raising $1,385 in the
annual MS Walk held in Lewisburg, Pa; (he
site of AFSCME 2360 headquarters. The
money will help Central Pennsylvania's
MS headquarters find a cure for MS.
The 14 members walked approximately
10 miles to raise money for people wilh
MS. They raised the money through people
pledging a certain amount for each completed mile. Direct donations were also
given as a result of the MS walk.
The team consisted of seven men and
seven women ranging in age from 26 to 62.
This is the third year that AFSCME has
participated in the MS Walk. The first team
was comprised of only eight members.
Involvement in the race grew the following year and 12 AFSCME members

The AFSCME Local 2360 team consists of: Jim Bauman, Nelson
Bauman, Paul Eichenlaub, Jim Packer, Becky Welsh, Janet Courier,
Frances Shady, Susan Confer, Roy Lachet, Cheryl Smith, Dean Reynolds,
Bill Gardner, Barb McAuley, and Donna Weaver (not shown in order).
(photo courtesy of National MS Society)
joined in the MS walk. Participation continued to increase yielding this year's team
of 14 AFSCME members.
Cheryl Smith, Secretary of AFSCME
2360 and a participant in all three MS
Walks, was very excited about the amount
of money raised in the 1996 MS Walk.
She said of the bronze level award, "We
are proud. We raised a significant amount
of money for a worthy cause. I hope that

we can raise even more money next year
for the National MS Society."
AFSCME members will participate in
the MS Walk again next year, which will be
held in April. They are hoping to raise
enough money to put them beyond the
bronze level award next year.
Their bronze level plaque will be displayed outside of the AFSCME office,
located in the basement of Russell Hall.

Disorderly Conduct -- Oct. 14: There
was a rejrort of a fight in progress in one of
the residence halls. When the officer
arrived the scene was under control. The
students were warned that if the fighting
continued they could be cited for disorderly conduct. The students were referred to
Student Life.
Possession of Alcohol ~ Oct. 12:
There was a call from a resident assistant in
a residence hall that there were several
empty beer cans found in a room. The officer responded and found a male student
who was quite hard to wake up. The individual was taken to the Lock Haven
Hospital to be checked for blood-alcohol
poisoning. The blood alcohol level of the
student was .217. The individual was cited
for underage drinking.
Criminal Mischief — Oct. 11:
Someone damaged the door at the racquetball court in the Zimmerli Building.
Someone had kicked the door and caused
enough damage that the door had to be
replaced with a cost of $450. This matter is
currently under investigation.
Harassment by Communication -Oct. 11: There was a report that obscene
stories were being sent to faculty and staff
on E-mail. It appears that students were
sending these stories to each other and in
the process the stories would get sent to
faculty and staff also. This can be considered harassment and students can get cited
for it. If anyone has received these stories
and would like to press charges against
those who have sent them, contact Law
Enforcement.
Disorderly Conduct - Oct. 10: Two
students were arguing in the area of Ulmer
Hall. Some pushing took place between the
individuals, but the fighting ended there.
This matter is being investigated and one or
both students could be cited for disorderly
conduct.

Fire leaves nine
students homeless
SHIPPENSBURG - Two weeks ago
Shippensburg was filled with fire whistles
and sirens. Dark heavy gray smoke could
be seen for miles around Richard Avenue.
Roommates were crying and hugging
each other as they watched three fire com
panics (Vigilant Hose, Cumberland Valley
Hose, and West End Fire and Rescue
squad) from the area put out the fire.
According to Geoff Burns, the first
firefighter to reach the scene, it was the
largest fire he had seen in years.
West End Fire Chief Jaime White said.
There was heavy fire and total loss but no
injuries."
Nine girls lived in the house. They
were provided with counseling sessions to
cope with the loss. They were also offered
temporary housing in Seavers Apartments
and their I.D. cards were replaced. Meal
plans were also given to them.
The cause of the fire is still under
investigation.

Keg found in West
Chester dormitory
W E S T C H E S T E R - A quarter keg of beer
was confiscated by a Resident Assistant on
the second floor of Goshen Hall last
Friday.
The incident occurred at 10:30 p.m. A
West Chester University student who wishes to remain anonymous purchased the keg
on Friday with the intention of taking it to
the West Chester football game on
Saturday.
A Resident Assistant from the third
floor was on rounds when she apparently
heard loud noise coming form the room
and discovered the keg. She notified the
Resident Director and Law Enforcement.
When Law Enforcement arrived, they
collected everyone's student identification
cards and escorted one female minor to the
Public Safety Building and notified her
parents.
Two of the students involved received
fines up to four hundred dollars and possible suspension of their licenses for 90
days. The remaining students have not
received their fines as of yet, and are waiting for their charges.
One University student, who wishes to
remain anonymous, claimed, "It was one
of the dumbest things I've ever done. I
wouldn't advise anyone to try it."

A look into the past through the Eagk Eye...

? What was happening at LHU ?
Twenty years ago - Oct. 18, 1976 Fifteeen years ago - Oct. 16, 1981
One of the more flamboyant projects
initiated on the Lock Haven State College
campus is now completed. A 10 thousand
dollar restored archway now lies adjacent to
the Stevenson Library. One may ask as to
where they acquired the money for such a
venture, when all one hears about is how
short of funds the college is.
The Lycoming Chapter of the Alumni
Association is the instigator, as in 1970 they
employed a local architect to develop blueprints of the design to restore the archway.
Initially, in 1968, Professor Robert
Johnston had requested that the college save
the stone from the Sullivan Hall Archway
when the building was being torn down.
The college complied and in 1975 plans for
financing the operation were finally made.
The 10 thousand dollars required to restore
the arch is basically for the actual construction of the project.
The importance of the project according
to Mr. Fran Cornelius, director of financial
aid, is the fact that the alumnus have an
emotional attachment to the building
because for seven or eight decades, it was
the focal point of all the activities on campus.

Two people were injured when a clutch
and pressure plate exploded in a truck being
used by the International Club in the
Homecoming Parade last Saturday.
Th explosion actually occurred while
the parade was taking place.
Richard Hepner, director of Law
Enforcement, said that originally it was
reported that there was only one injury.
The reported injury was a flesh wound
received from flying metal. The person was
treated at Lock Haven Hospital and released
later that same day.
It was later learned that a second person
was injured in the explosion as well,
according to Hepner.
This person also received a flesh wound
from flying metal, but did not seek medical
attention.
Hepner said that the probable cause of
the explosion was that the clutch and pressure plate of the truck became overheated
due to the continual stopping and starting
involved in the parade. He learned this after
examining the debris from the truck explosion.
He warned future parade volunteers of
the dangers that could result from the stopping and starting during parade routes.

Law Enforcement is currently tracking
a suspect in the radio station forgery case.
During the summer a person took purchase orders from WLHC, the campus
radio station, and bought office supplies
from a downtown business.
Law Enforcement now has a suspwct in
this case. The person lives outside of
Williamsport, Pa. according to Richard
Hepner, director of Law Enforcemera.
Hepner also states that he and Officer
Jeff Johnson have made numerous calls to
the suspect's house but have been unsuccessful in locating the person.
Hepner said that he and Johnson may
have to visit the suspect's house in order to
bring the person back to campus to deal
with the case. No further information was
given.
Law Enforcement is also looking into
the ongoing problem of garbage being
thrown on dormitory grounds.
The weekend maintenance reported
large amounts of rubbish scattered on the
grounds of one of the dorms. Lieutenant
Dennis Grenninger said the grounds are
always a mess after the weekend.
Maintenance then has to clean up the mess
that the students leave.

Leftovers for those of us leftover
At this time last week, while many of
the University's students were on their way
home for the more than welcomed three
day weekend we were granted, those of us
left behind here were faced with horrendous time constraints on our dining hours
along with a completely unacceptable menu
put out by the University's dining service.
Granted, vacations usually do call for
condensed hours in business places.
However, when a vacation, which lasts one
day officially, ceases all normal meal hours
and forces students to select and attempt to
eat foods that I personally would not feed to
a dog, then there seems to open a way for
countless complaints and disappointments.
It is a known fact that Bentley is more
than often the subject of attacks and verbal
abuse by the students who dine there on a
daily basis. It is sad to say that after this
weekend, I can see justifiable reasons for
these complaints and I sympathize with all
the students who entered Bentley at 4:30
p.m. last Friday only to be greeted by leftovers that were transferred upstairs when
the Eagle Rock Cafe, located in downstairs
Bentley, closed for the weekend at 3:30
p.m.
What kind of dining service serves pieople food that was leftover from another part
of their establishment, and was meant to be
eaten an hour before it was served?
The obvious answer in this situation is
Bentley. Well, this appalls me, especially
considering that my meal plan is by no
means cheap. I understand that food is

expensive. However, I expect the money I
pay for it, whether it be a moderate amount
or not, to buy me food that is fresh and
tasteful. Not greasy, disgusting, repulsive
and just downright awful!
1 cannot believe that just because some
of us were not fortunate enough to get home
and eat real food last weekend, we were
given the punishment of horrible food. This
is by no means acceptable and 1 feel that I,
along with any other student who braved
the apfiearance of the food in Bentley last
Friday and actually put it in their mouths,
have every reason to complain.
As if the food itself was not bad enough,
we were slapped in the face with a dinner
time that lasted from 4:30 p.m. until some
time after 5 p.m. I say until sometime
because, according to the person taking
identification cards at the door, the time
allotted to us for eating was 4:30 p.m. to 5
p.m. At the same time, according to students who entered after 5 p.m., signs were
posted indicating that Bentley was not to

close right at 5 p.m.
Whether they closed officially at 5 p.m.
or not, students should not be forced to eat
dinner, which, in most cases, is eaten in the
home when the family is all seated together at the table, at an absurd time (I 4:30
p.m. The family dinner can only occur if
the family is all together. For those, which
are many, who work until 5 p.m., dinner is
usually not served until sometime close to 6
p.m. So why is it that Bentley feels we
should eat dinner at 4:30 p.m.? How many
people are that hungry at 4:30 p.m. that
they crave Bentley food and lo('k forward
to eating it at this absurd time?
Maybe the time constraints were easy to
work around. The disgusting, greasy food
we were served was not. There is no r^iason
why, just because we stayed here, where we
pay to eat, live and be educated, we should
be deprived of food that is edible by any
human standards.

The Conservative Column
by Dan Barrile

Oolumnist says a p p e a r a n c e is n o t everything
Well the Presidential Election has
deepened to very serious depths: No this is
not about the budget, social security, the
pro-life/pro-choice debate, or even the new
scandals
surrounding
the Clinton
Campaign. The new issue is, which candidate can sell the most TV Guides.
The folks at TV Guide will be issuing
alternate covers for their pre-election editions. One cover featuring President
Clinton and one featuring Republican presidential candidate Bob Dole. In case you
were wondering, there will not be a Ross
Perot TV Guide cover.
The issue hits the racks on Monday.
Some in the media have already made it a
serious indication as to where the race really stands. I really hope that this is not the
case. We are choosing the person who will
run our country for the next four years; not
someone to ride in the back of a Corvette at

a parade and wave to people on the streets.
We should base our decision on who
we feel will make the best decisions for
America, not who is the most photogenic,
or who has the prettiest wife.
It seems that in America we base phys
ical attractiveness way too high. There are
many famous actors and actresse: out
there who cannot act but still receive large
movie contracts because they are good
looking. Do you think Elvis Presley would
have been nearly as famous or sold nearly as many records as he did if he looked
like Ross Perot?
When next month rolls around do not
let a superficial facet such as who is better
looking or who can sell the most TV
Guides influence your decision. Research
the candidates and make an educated decision as to who you feel would do fhe best
job at running our country.

Uniforms: When dress codes become detrimental to the wearer
For as long as there have been organizations, institutions, leagues and services
of any kind, the concept of a
required dress code has been
alive and kicking, in numerous cases, the concept has
been kicking many of the people told that they must wear a
uniform in order to be a certain part of a group. Granted,
uniforms serve well to distinguish members of certain groups as being
members of certain groups, allow wearers

to not waste time or money finding something to wear, and in the case of the military
and sports teams,
prove to be an aide in
accomplishing necessary physical tasks.
Some employees find uniforms
helpful in portraying
a professional image.
It can definitely be
said that in general, people tend to trust service ptoviders wearing urriforms more than

those in plain clothes. Uniforms present an
air of looking official. Let us face it, it
makes it a lot easier to find a cop or other
emergency personnel when you need one.
Because of this same psychology, we feel a
lot more confident discu.ssing impending
surgery with Dr. X who is clad in a white
lab coat or scrubs, than Dr. X who is wearing a suit, or sporting anything le.ss ihan a
dress shirt, trousers and a tie. But, that is
where the plus side of uniforms end.

Opinion/Editorial
In my opinion...
Eagle Eye columnists speak their minds
Uniforms continued from page 4
I am no anarchist, but in many cases,
particularly where the uniform in question
is on the silly side, forcing people to follow
specific dress codes, lest they be expelled
from the group or their job, is also a form of
control. Do not for a second tell me that
those with "the power" do not derive at
least an ounce of satisfaction from using
that power to establish clone appearances,
especially if "the power" in question is not
required to wear a uniform.
I suppose if all uniforms were decent
looking, I would not feel so bad for the
people wearing them. But, when they look
absurd, intolerable to the wearer to the
point of causing physical discomfort or
impending job performance, and p)erhaps
reason for the wearer to be ashamed of his
appearance, I can not help wanting to hand
out soft T-shirts and comfortable pants to
these people. Maybe, if I ever win the
Lottery, I will.
Anyway, I suppose the biggest violator
of the ethic that uniforms should be an aide
to whatever task one is performing, not a
cause for disturbance or reason for looking
corny despite how cool a person the wearer
is, is the food service industry hands down.
I have friends employed there, 1 have been
employed there (although I must say that
my current waitress garb is a virtual uniform dream: Soft T-shirt and comfortable
sweats or shorts), and I frequent various
establishments.

I have seen it all: One piece f)olyester
dress-type things comparable to gaudy sixties bowling uniforms, baseball caps with
giant plastic chickens on them, frilly
ensembles seemingly made from the
owner's grandma's curtains, and tuxedotype nightmares. I want to know what possesses the chiefs of fast food chains to
decree that workers, regardless of their sex,
should be forced to wear supposed unisex
it-resembles-cotton-but-certainly-does-notfeel-that-way pants, coupled with blouses
with Peter Pan collars, some ludicrous tie
and shoes that are more perfect for farm
work, not for running the drive-thru or
working the fry-line.
As for wait staff, I have seen it all. And,
not to be sexist, I think female workers bear
the brunt of these fashion massacres. The
absolute worse I ever saw, was a horrific
get-up that seemed to resemble a dairy
maid-meets-folk dancer number. Dairy
maids do not wait tables, why should waitresses look ready to milk a cow?
Incidentally, I have a friend who has
worked on a dairy farm, a modern dairy
maid if you will, where they always wear
jeans, flannels, boots and gloves.
Second place honors in the Bad
Uniform Hall of Fame belong to parochial
schools. As a survivor of thirteen years,
that's right, count them, 13 years of enduring all manner of badly matched plaid.

pleated skirts, polyester vests from which I
still experience flashbacks that set me shivering, camp-like pastel blouses, knee socks
that never stayed up and shoes that could
have lasted our entire lives if it were not for
the natural process of growing. Of this I
speak from experience. I will not even tap
into school sweaters or the trauma of
hideous gym uniforms.
Even worse than the fact that we were
petrified into believing violating these
apparel standards would inevitably somehow send us straight to Hell, was the fact
that most schools (including my alma
maters) were cruel enough not to have winter versions of these plaid, school color
wonders.
There were many a winter day when we
were forced to contemplate that in the event
the bus was even five seconds late (one
could survive the subzero conditions in
these uniforms plus a winter coat for exactly as long as it took to get to the bus stop
and board the bus) we would have to weigh
our desire to continue our education against
whether or not we would be willing to have
a leg amputated after falling victim to frostbite. This particular premise of dress code
has nothing to do with discipline or conveying a professional message. Come on,
how professional are school kids supposed
to be? I am confident that survivors of private educational institutions fully understand this.

A few more uniform questions and
gripes: Whose idea was it to not only
embroider the first names of certain workers into their uniform, but do it in script?
What is the need for all those buttotis on
bellhop and doorperson jackets? Can't they
wear simple understated suit jackets? In
many middle-class hotels the blazer look
for front-desk personnel is fine, but why
must female employees wear ties? The
males are not required to wear skirts, therefore females should be exempt from wearing ties. What is the deal with those allmale organizations named after some animal? Why do members consider hats with
the head and horns of the particular animal
sacred dress for that club? How serious can
outsiders take such an individual?
I guess what I am trying to say is that
the idea of dressing everyone from a certain
group alike is okay as long as the chosen
type of dress is comfortable, matches, is
suitable for all weather conditions, ai.d does
not do a number on the self-esteem of the
wearer. I do not call for the abolishment of
dress codes, just reasonable revisions. I
have a hunch that doing this would lead to
less people becoming disgruntled. It is
worth a try.

Columnist feels Bentley changes are needed yet again
Welcome boys and girls to yet another
fun-filled and enlightening installment of
- Tales From the Hard Side. Today we are
going to talk about Homecoming. The time
of year when people leave their home to
"come home" to a place that never was
theirs to begin with. So, onto the special
Tales Homecoming extravaganza.
Homecoming is a special time of the
year, but is it really needed?
Is
Homecoming a tradition that has run its
coarse and nobody is willing to pull it off of
life support? It is the time of year when
graduates come back to the place that gave
thena their start in the real world. It seems
to me that around here. Homecoming is
really just another excuse to have a party.
But, is Homecoming really about parties or is it about memories? Memories that
were born on this campus and are being
relived one more time.
The
University
is
celebrating
Homecoming this weekend. Last night
there was a Pep Rally and even the chicken,
I mean the Bald Eagle mascot, was there.
^ ^ m e c o m i n g is about school pride.
^Knight the semi-formal is being held, and

the Homecoming King and Queen will be
crowned.
Homecoming is about memories.
Tomorrow there is a full slate of activities,
including an alumni-filled hockey game,
soccer matches, and the traditional
Homecoming football game. Homecoming
is all about fun. With all this happening, is
Homecoming really another excuse to have
a keg party? Maybe it
is, and maybe it is not.
I am not going up
on my soap box to
preach about having
parties
on
Homecoming because
Homecoming parties
are as much a tradition as Homecoming is.
What I am preaching is what Homecoming
is about. It is all about fun, memories and
school pride. It is about coming back to
Lock Haven for a moment in time to relive
all the good moments and even some of the
bad. It is a time to hold onto the past
because our future might not be so bright.
It is a time to come back to the one place
that makes you feel like you are home.

Bentley bashing time
Okay it is time to put on the gloves and
get down to complaining. This semester the
food at Bentley has been downright awful.
Just when I thought the food was taking a
turn for the better at the end of last semester, it crash dived into the pea soup on the
salad bar, never to be seen again. The food
is bad, and I am being nice by saying bad.
For what I pay, I
deserve better than this.
I do not know
where to really start
because overall the
food
in
upstairs
Bentley has gotten
worse but the food
downstairs has gotten better. But I am not
going to talk about better food, I am going
to talk about the slop they feed us upstairs.
The best meal of the day upstairs is still
breakfast. I mean, not even Bentley can
mess up breakfast. Then when the clock
turns to lunch, the fun really begins.

xaleS [From t h e
Hard s i d e
by ChPiS Nagy

I mean in one week we had the potato
bar four times. I like potatoes but four
times in one week is a bit redundant.

Variety has gone out the window yet again,
and with it has gone the good food that we
had last year. Even the pizza has gotten
worse. Leave it to Bentley to mess vsp even
the most simple of items to make.
Changes are needed yet again at the dining hall or I am just going to keep bashing
it. I mean I can cook and I am willing to
give it a try because I bet I could make a
better meal than what we are being served
day in and day out at Bentley. Chef Chris:
It has a nice ring to it, doesn't it? Bcndey
made changes last year and I think it is time
for them to make some more.
That has been this week's fun-filled edition of Tales From the Hard Side. Tune in
next time when I bet I will have more to
complain about. Until then....peace.

"As You Like It" provides humor in true comedy form
by Jason Popp
Eagle Eye Features Reporter_
The National Shakespeare Company,
sponsored in part by the Haven Activities
Council (HAC) Performing Arts Committee
and the Student Cooperative Council
(SCC), performed a delightful rendition of
Shakespeare's play, "As You Like It," in
Price Performance Center on Wednesday,
Oct. 9.
This witty Elizabethan comedy, generously smathered with sexual innuendoes
and sarcasm, appealed to the audience's
sense of humor. It also featured a multi-talented cast. Each actor jjerformed several
roles, revealing the level of sophistication
and versatility required. This also included
the ability of the cast to serve as both human
props and scenery. Although the props were
simplistic, they enhanced the level of the
comedy.
The choreography is a prime example of
how comedy is enriched in theatre produc-

tions. The wrestling scene, in particular,
used the choreography of television to bolster the comedy of the situation. Matthew
Lee, who played the wrestler, and David
Aubrey Johnson, who played Orlando, both
brought the World Wrestling Federation
(WWF) to life on stage. It was hilarious.
Other contributions to the overall quali-ty of the play included its non-traditional
divisions between the scenes, the actors'
facial expressions, and the natural sound
effects. The end of each scene was punctuated by a circular procession that ended after
each cast member had made the necessary
changes for the next scene. This innovative
style of directing allowed for greater audience comfort — i.e. the length of the play
was tolerable.
The actors' facial expressions, in conjunction with the natural sound effects, further heightened the level of humor. Bart
Shattuck, who played both a dog and a frog
in "As You Like It," proved that even minor
roles can capture an audience with laughter.

But Shattuck is -not alone in this distinction,
for the entire cast gave an excellent performance.
If there were any mistakes, they were
hidden in a "comedy of errors." This
reporter's only criticism was the choice of
costume design. The costumes should have
been more unique and less simplistic to

accent the differences in characters. I also
felt that color could have been used more to
achieve this effect.
But overall, "As You Like It," was a
thoroughly enjoyable play. Thanks goes to
the SCC and the Performing Arts
Committee of HAC for providing such
entertainment.

Willing SusfTension of Disbelief: A
phrase used to describe one's acceptance of
highly absurd or imf>ossible actions within
the context of a movie or other story medium. For example: You should be able to
accept the fact that, after he has been tortured, beaten, blown backwards out of a
window and through a neon sign, nearly
drowned and half frozen to death, Samuel
L. Jackson can take a bullet in the chest and
then drive a car across the Peace Bridge as
it is exploding and while there are flaming
cars raining down from the sky.
Sounds pretty easy to stomach, huh? I
have said my peace against the disturbing
trends in action films before, and The Long
\\kiss Goad Night does nothing to redeem
jthe genre". Or does it?
:wlf we cat) put Geei1a;iPavis' ego aside for
oift second, and overlook the fact that she is
married t5 the director; the Long Kiss Good
Night is a fantastic parody.
First Jhe plot;^ Samantha Caine (Geena
Davis) is a school teacher in Central
t Pennsylvania whD has had amnesia for eight
J years. She \voke up oil n beach, had no
u memories and was two months pregnant.
Caine has tried to make something of her
jife, raising her little girl and becoming a
appy, indui^thbus, boring everywoman.
he story goes to great lengths to make
Caine seem average.
Samantha has also hired several private
eyes to try to find her past. One of these is
Mitch Henessey (Samuel L. Jackson), an
ex-cop who runs a tiny detective business.
He has had little luck in life and none in the
case.
Well, one night, Samantha is driving an
old drunk home from a Christmas party.

eyes off of the road and tries to ward off his
advances.
The scene that we are presented with is
this: It is a dark, snowy night in the middle
of nowhere. One of two things is going to
hapf»en — A. They are going to hit a patch of
ice and go careening off the road; B. They
are going to hit something living and go
careening off the road.
The answer here is B. The minute
Samantha looks away, a deer materializes in
front of the car. The deer has just about long
enough to go "What the. . ." before it is
flipped over the hood and driven through the
windshield, where it lies kicking and flailing.
Samantha's natural instinct is, of course,
to drive directly into a tree. Both she and the
deer go rocketing through the air and end up
about 20 feet into the woods.
Now, I wonder what a sharp blow to the
head would do to an amnesia victim?
The key to the story is that Samantha
Caine is actually Charly Baltimore, counterassassin for the Central Intelligence
Agency(CIA).
As the poor deer lies kicking and wriggling in the snow, Samantha, totally barefoot, walks through the snow and crosses a
stream just to put the deer out of its misery.
She grabs it by the antlers and snaps its neck.
Uh-oh, little miss average is showing some
weird traits.
Meanwhile, a one-eyed convict sees
Samantha in a Christmas Parade on television. He freaks out and breaks out of jail. At
the same time, Henessey finds some clues to
Samantha's past.
The one-eyed crime guy shows up at
Samantha's house with a shotgun. This
shotgun is one of the most powerful
weapons in the world. With a single shot,
one-eyed crime guy blows a three-foot hole
in the side of Samantha's house. This hole is
large enough for Samantha to throw her
daughter through. I want one of those shotguns.
After Samantha kills the bad guy with
her bare hands, Henessey shows up, and off
they go to find her past. The rest of the
movie is a twisted mess that involves
Samantha getting flashes of her alternate
personality and a lot of bad guys trying to
kill the two travelers in interesting and horrible ways.
Eventually Charly Baltimore totally

resurfaces and heads off to kill the bad guys
and save her daughter (who was kidnapped
~ like you did not see that coming). In contrast to Samantha Caine, Charly Baltimore
is a hard-drinking, chain-smoking, foul
mouthed killer who wears too much eye
make-up and peroxides her hair.
The attempt at contrast is so extreme that
it makes the character laughable. Samantha
is picture-perfect Mrs. Good Housekeeping
while Charly is a homicidal maniac who drives around town chugging liquor.
The stunts in The Long Kiss Good Night
are pretty silly. Doing an over-the-top stunt
that is insanely dangerous but still at least
remotely possible is one thing. Grabbing a
machine gun off of a flaming corpse as it
speeds past you as a counter weight on a
string of Christmas lights just so you can
shoot a helicopter is totally different.
From the ridiculous stunts to the horrible, horrible one-liners. The Long Kiss
Good Night contains all those elements that
make action movies trite and useless.
Some people will say that movies are
meant to entertain. And they are. So on that
point, I was infinitely entertained by The
Long Kiss Good Night. I laughed pretty
much the entire time. The explosions are
neat but they are still just "let's-see-if-wecan-blow-up-something-that-no-one-elsehas" effects.
While she may be a talented actress in
some respects, Geena Davis just is not a
convincing hardcase. I do not see her as a
CIA superspy. I also couldn't see her as a
pirate queen, but that is a different story.
In all the mire of the convoluted plot and
hammy acting, Samuel L. Jackson actually
stands out. I have seen him in some real
clunkers and he has always held hisjown.
Jackson plays Henessey nicely tongue-incheek. Henessey is a bewildered victim of
someone else's nightmare, just like Jackson.
Maybe at the end, when Jackson is driving that car away from the explosion, he
should have headed for the Grand Canyon.
I can see it now: Jackson drives himself and
Geena Davis' split personalities off of a
cliff. The red convertible hangs in the air as
we fade to white. Will they ever conie
down? Will they live?
Do we even care?

Who's

Lady Eagles back on track on deck?
by Doug Henry
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_

WOMEN'S
SOCCER

The Lady Eagles got back to their winning ways with two consecutive wins this
week, clobbering Slippery Rock and
Edinboro. These two wins came on the
heels of their 1-0 heartbreaking loss to lUP.
The Ladies traveled to Slippery Rock on
Saturday for a PSAC matchup. The Haven
came up big with the 3-0 shutout. This was
the tenth victory of the year for the ladies,
which ties the school record set last year for
most victories in a season.
Rachel Clemens got the Lady Eagles on
the board first with her tenth goal of the
year. She now leads the team in goals
scored, with Georgina Adams in second
with nine.
Lynn Ashton scored her fourth goal of
the year. This was her first goal in four
games. She had scored in three of the four
games before her recent drought.
Clemens, looking for her second score of
the game, was denied the opportunity when
she was pulled down in the penalty box by a
Slippery Rock defender. The referee was
right on top of things, and he awarded the
Haven a penalty kick.
Shannon Davis was able to touch the
cords to make the score 3-0. This was
Davis' fifth goal of the year moving her into
third place in the goals scored category.
Once again the Haven defense played
flawlessly. The victory against the Rock
accounted for their fifth shutout of the year.
In their next contest against Edinboro, they
would pick up their sixth shutout.
Edinboro looked to be an easy game as
they are in their first year of intercollegiate
play. The ladies had little trouble in controlling the game from the get go, and they built
a 3-0 lead going into halftime.
The first goal came from another great
corner kick from the boot of captain Heather

1

Orman. This has been the Haven's most
effective means of scoring thus far.
Orman's cross found Adams in the center of the field. Adams struck the ball with
authority right to the goal. Midfielder
Kristen Pickersgill was positioned right in
front of the net, and had to jump over the
ball to assure that it would go in. This made
the score 1-0 and moved Adams into a tie
with Clemens for the lead in goals scored.
It did not take Clemens long to regain
this lead as she used a beautiful touch to
beat the goal keeper. Clemens went one-onone with the keeper, and the keeper started
to charge. Clemens calmly dribbled to the
left of the goalie and tapped the ball into the
unattended net.
The third goal came as a result of great
passing in the Edinboro penalty box area.
Adams scored her second gaol of the day
when she received a pass from Clemens and
then blasted the shot straight to the back of
the net. This again pulled Adams into a tie
with Clemens for the lead in goals scored.
However, Adams was not done for the
day. She managed to tally a hat trick, scoring in the second half. This was her twelfth
goal of the season giving and put Adams in
first on the overall scoring for the team. She
is in front of Clemens by one point.
The Haven defense dominated Edinboro
as they have been doing against opponents
all year long. They have given up a mere
nine goals all season.
The defense has also limited other teams
to 79 shots and 19 corners in the first 13
games. That is an astounding accomplishment for the defense, because, as these numbers reflect, only six shots and one-and-ahalf corners per game have been given up to

opponents.
Equally impressive, last week goalkeeper Liz Nielinger saved 14 shots in 210 minutes while allowing just one ball to pass
through.
The Haven offense has been pouring it
on as well. They have outscored their opponents 38-9 and have outshot opponents by
an even 100 shots.
The offense has also earned 77 corners
which means danger for their adversaries.
There are eleven different players who have
scored at least one point for offensive
accomplishment this year and four players
are in double digits.
The Lady Eagles will be tested a great
deal in their next two games. They will play
their next two games at home against
Oakland and Bloomsburg.
The Oakland University game will be
played tomorrow at 1 p.m. The team will
battle the Bloomsburg University Huskies
on Wednesday at 2 p.m. With wins over
these two clubs, the team could move up to
one of the top five spots in the national
rankings.
"These next two games will be our
biggest of the year. 1 would like to see a lot
of fans come out and support the team. We
need to win at least one of these games to go
to the NCAA playoffs, and it always helps
to have a loud home-field crowd," remarks
head coach Trevor Warren.

Lady Eagles
clawing
back to the
top
by Brian Ploskina
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter
After a slight drought, the volleyball
team got back on course this week, first by
winning
the
Clarion
University
Tournament last weekend, then by wiping
out the Indiana University of Pa. Lady
Vulcans on Tuesday.
The ladies racked up three wins in a
row at the Clarion Tourney, defeating
Westminster College, St. Francis
University, and PSAC rival, Clarion. The
Haven downed lUP in three sets (15-4,
15-5,
15-7) in what head coach Tom
Justice described as "a great team effort."
Against Clarion, Megan Best contributed 15 kills, and Sarah Curtis added
17 kills along with 18 digs.
Tara
Newcomer's 12 kills and 12 digs, Fadime
Verhoeven's 12 kills, and Becky Peters'
83% attack percentage were enough to
beat Clarion, which was actually the only
team to take the Ladies further than three
sets. LHU took the match, 3-2 (15-10,1315,7-15, 15-3, 15-12).
The team has started to climb back up
the PSAC ladder, boosted by Clarion's
recent defeat of Slipjjery Rock, a team
which was second in PSAC after defeating the Lady Eagles earlier this month.
Justice comments that this puts the Haven
team "in good shape for the conference,"
at 5-2 in the PSAC and 17-9 overall.
These wins put the Lady Eagles at #6
in the Atlantic Regional Conference.
Pennsylvania boasts a number of powerhouses in this conference, with Edinboro
ranked #1 and Slippery Rock ranked #3.
The Lady Eagles, 4-2 in the PSAC,
take on Clarion again Tuesday night al 7
p.m., their first home game in a month.

Eagles show signs of improvement
by Chris Nagy
Eagle Eye Reporter_
The Bald Eagles went into Millersville
last Saturday still smarting from a 57-3 loss
at the hands of Clarion. The Eagles played
the Marauders tough, losing a 34 to 12 decision and coming away from the game with a
lot of positive momentum and a range of
season bests.
Lock Haven controlled the ball for 15:11
in the first half, but failed to score against
the Marauder defense.
The Eagle offense finally started to click
in the third quarter when quarterback Carlos
Cleckley found Bryan McGinty in ii.^ end
zone for the Eagles' first touchdc ii in 19
quarters. The pass play covered 5 yards and
was set-up by Eric Zachman's interception
and 21-yard return to the Millersville 21.
In the fourth quarter, the Eagles took the
ball 77 yards for the last score of the game.
The touchdown drive was the team's longest
of the season.
The Cleckley-McGinty duo connecte i
again for the 14-yard touchdown, whijh
might be a favorite play on the Haven' season highlight reel. On fourth-and-goal from
the Millersville 14, Cleckley scrambled
around a fierce Marauder rush and ended up
around the 40-yard line, where he lofted the
pass to McGinty, who battled three defenders for the ball.
"It was the best we played all year," said
a pleased head coach, Nick Polk, on his
team's performance. He continued, "The
kids competed for 60 minutes and played
hard."
"We finally started to click on offense.
All the pieces are finally coming together
for us," added fullback Willie Kitt.
The Haven held the edge in time of possession, a first this year. Cleckley went 28
of 50 passing for 203 yards and two touch-

downs, marking his best game of the year.
Kitt had 50 yards on the ground on 113 carCleckley also did a good job spreading
the ball around to his receivers; Art Harris
caught six passes for 36 yards and Jason
Kundtz had four catches for 28 yards.
But the senior McGinty was Cleckley's
main target, pulling down 14 passes for 102
yards and the game's two touchdowns.
McGinty, with his first touchdown
catch, became only the 5th player in PSAC
history with 200 carrier catches. He is now
only 52 yards behind Jon Spinosa's all-time
LHU record for receiving yards, which
stands at 2,710.
For his performance in Saturday's
game, the PSAC awarded McGinty with a
"Player of the Week Honorable Mention."
The offense totaled 78 plays and 17 first
downs, also season highs, and totaled 237
total yards.
The defense had another standout performance. They held All-American quarterback Greg Moylan to 169 yards and
sacked him two times.
The defense surrendered only 3,370
yards to the high-power Millersville
offense. The Haven D also held the
Marauder offense to zero first downs and
only 1,311 yards and one touchdown in the
second half.
Junior defensive end John Gerst had a
day defensive players dream of. Gerst had
nine tackles (seven solo), two for a loss, a

pass break-up, and two and a half sacks on
which earned him a PSAC "Player of the
Week Honorable Mention."
Junior linebacker Jeremy Crills contributed seven tackles, a pass break-up and
a forced fumble for the Haven defense.
Junior Ben Steinbacher also had eight tackles.
Another bright spot for the Haven was
the return of linebacker Jon McFarland,
who recovered from broken a forearm that
occurred during practice at the beginning of
the season, to contribute four s[)ecial teams
tackles.
Senior Charlie Traber took over the
punting duties for the Haven this week,
punting eight times for 308 yards.
Junior Smith Vatel had three kick-off
returns for 52 yards, and Steinbacher ran for
the longest punt return of the season, 26
yards.
"A five minute stretch in the second
quarter hurt us. We went from 14-0 to 28-0
in that span and it could have easily been
14-3 or 14-7," explained Coach Polk.
Both teams seemed to suffer from problems resulting in penalties. Tlie two teams
combined for 27 penalties for 271 yards.
Tomorrow's Homecoming game mrrks
only the second time in seven games the
Eagles play at home.
Shippensburg comes into the game in a
similar situation as Lock Haven. The Red
Raiders were rocked by Clarion last week
and are in search of their first conference
win, as are the Eagles.
The Eagles, with an overall record of 06, will look to put an end to their 33-game
losing streak.

As the leaves are blown off the autumn
trees, so are teams being blown away by the
Lady Eagle field hockey players.
The breezes started blowing last Saturday
when SUNY Cortland visited Charlotte
Field. Off the first corner of the game, Ann
Smith scored the first point of the game.
The game continued in the same whirlwind fashion when scoring sensation
Melanie Helm whipped in two more goals.
The scoreboard never changed after that, and
the ladies walked away with a 3-0 shutout.
The Cortland win was a big victory for
Lx)ck Haven for two reasons. To begin with,
Cortland walked off the bus with an undefeated record and ranked #1 in Division 111.
Secondly, until last year, Cortland was
coached by the Haven's head coach, Pat
Rudy.
"1 think our coach was very pleased with
the win. We played well, and it was a good
day," replied Ann Smith when asked about
the game.
The wind of the Eagles' wings blew even
harder as the team buffaloed the Lady Bison
of Bucknell University Wednesday night
under the lights at Jack Stadium.
The first half remained locked at a stalemate while the Lady Eagles tried hard to find
the goal. Finally, Stacy Karloski found the
ball's home and sent one in for a Haven 1-0
lead; the first half closed that way.

Senior forward Helm
made history thirteen
and a half minutes into
the second half. Cheri
Drysdale found Helm,
who put the ball in the
cage, and became Lock
Haven's all-time leading
scorer. The goal also put
the team up. 2-0.
As play continued
amid celebrations, Ann
Smith scored the third
goal.
Helm then put the
fourth and final point on
the scoreboard, and the
ladies chalked up another shutout victory, 4-0.
The team is now 122 overall and 4-2 in the

The pa.st week has been a good one for
the Bald Eagle soccer team, which recorded two shutouts, improving their overall
record to 8-2-2 and 5-0 in the PSAC, and
placing them on top of the conference.
L.ast Saturday, the Bald Eagles defeated
Slippery Rock 2-0 and held the Rockets to
only two shots in the game.
Sophomore midfielder Kenny Haines
put the Eagles on the board first off an assist
by freshman Nathan Litten.
The second and final goal was scored by
senior midfielder Sean Flanagan off an
assist
by sophomore Tobin
Gaun.
Flanagan's goal ties him with two others at
#4 on the LHU career goals .scored list.
"The team played well in spots, but we
need all the players to play the full ninety
minutes. If we can do that, we will play a
great deal better," explains Coach L.enny

[MEN'S

SOCCER

i

Long.
To make the week sweeter, the Bald
Eagles shutout Wheeling Jesuit, 3-0, on
Tuesday.
Commenting on the scoreless first half,
coach Long states "The team played real
well the first 20 minutes but had a bit of a
stupor in the second twenty minutes. If we
would have scored in the first twenty minutes, our outcome would have been so much
better."
In the second half, the Eagles came alive
and at 24:59, Junior Steve Slack, last year's
leading .scorer, found the net off assists by
both Sean Flanagan and Nathan Litten for
his eighth goal of the season.
Senior back and fan favorite, Kevin
Floss, went on to score his first two goals of
the season in just seven minutes. Floss's

first goal was a.ssisted by Flanagan and his
second by team veterans Danny Bacon and
Slack.
On defen.se, junior back Ryan Czop
played well for the Bald Eagles and was a
key contributor to the shutout.
With only 11 minutes left in the game,
the coaches replaced starting goalie Dave
Hartlaub with senior back-up goalie Cijis
Mathers, who would preserve the victory.
"Mathers is an instrumental part of the
team in many ways. He did a great job aiTd
provided two key saves," proudly remarks
Coach Long.
The men's soccer coaches were hoping
Wheeling Jesuit would be a good warm-up
game for the Eagles, who are playing
Oakland University on Saturday.
After two consecutive wins the Bald
Eagles are going to have to play hard to
defeat Oakland, who is ranked fourth in the
country, but the Bald Eagles are up lO t
challenge.
