Bookstore Profit Causes
Much Controversy
By MARTY MYERS
Editor In Chief
Despite the fact that the SCC books show
that a $27,000 bookstore profit through the
month of December, PUB Director Howard
Reynolds says that the $27,000 figure does
not represent the actual status of the
bookstore
"It's a worth-not cash in the bank,"
Reynolds said.$17,000 of that figure is in
book credits, according to Reynolds, which
is an amount that is not collectable in terms
of cash.
The $27,000 figure, Reynolds said,
represents what the SCC would have if the
bookstore were to sell out, lock, stock and
barrel. The actual amount of cash in the
bank is closer to $8,000.
In addition to book store credits, part'of
the money is tied up in inventory, and cash
on hand for normal operating expenses,
such as cashing checks for LHSC students.
Other factors that throw that figure out
of proportion, according to Reynolds, are
that • operating costs aren't considered
during Christmas break when
the
bookstore receives its supply of books for
the Spring semester.
During Christmas break, the bookstore
will be operating for 25 days, with an
overhe'ad cost of $375 per day. At that rate,
according to SCC accountant
Jean

Nestlerode, the present cash balance
would not be enough to cover those
operating costs. That is due in part to the
approximately 200 students, in Reynolds'
estimate, that have not yet paid an activity
fee or book credit.
Another reason that the $27,000 figure is
not totally realistic is that the revenue side
of the budget (incoming money) is not
always stable, while money allocated to
groups, clubs, etc., in almost every
instance, is spent "down to the last
penny." notes Reynolds.
SCC Treasurer John Stem.er agrees with
Reynolds. "The College Players for
instance will probably end up short.
Athletics might be short this year too."
Stemler said that the bookstore helps make
up revenues from other areas that don't
bring in what they anticipated. "It's a
revenue maker, there's no doubt about
that."
Reynolds main concern for the present is
for the bookstore to maintain its present
fiscal status next semester. "1 have a
concern the recession will be catching up to
the bookstore, the snack bar, or whatever.
More importantly, I'm concerned it.s going
to catch up with students and families. We
are not immune from infiation. and we are
not immune from a recession."

Lack of funding is preventing Stevenson
Library from keeping longer hours. According to Robert Bravard, director of library
services, "No one's against having the
library open longer hours, in principle. The
problem lies in certain institutional realities
and I have to recognize them."
The library hour issue is the result of a
project initiated by SCC Senator Karen
Culligan, who recently launched a campaign to have library hours increased. She
has had petitions circulated for students to
sign, and plans to take her ideas to the administration and then start an SCC committee to see what can be done about an increase in hours. Culligan said that her proposal in the early stages and that she plans
to form the committee in the next senate
meeting.
Bravard said that CuUigan has not
spoken to him concerning her ideas, and he
said that the library hours can't be increased unless additional funding is provided.
There are several ideas about how library
hours can be increased, including moving
the opening and closing times of the library
up an hour, or having the reserve room or
entire first floor open an extra hour in the
evenings.
Bravard said that the one hour delayed
opening/closing plan could not be used
because library workers use the first morning hour to set up the library, and also
because a fairly large number of commuting
students use the library early in the morning.
Bravard said that if an additional hour
was added in the evening, a full time
employee would have to be working to
supervise student workers, which would
decrease the time that the full time worker
would be available at other times. He said
that the library is already short a full time
worker and can't hire a replacement
because of a state hiring freeze. Bravard
said that he has heard of some disagreement
over the possibility of increased hours from
some student workers who would not want
to work an extra hour in the evening.
Also, concerning the use of student
workers, Bravard said that there is a limited
amount of money available in the stud?r.t
work budget, and that there is no chance of
getting any extra money. "Right now I'm
hoping 1 won't have to lay off student help
for the second semester," said Bravard.
Another objection to keeping the library
open an extra hour comes from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Bravard said
that Commonwealth regulations will not
permit the library to be open if Public
restrooms are not available. He said that
the second floor restrooms couldn't be used
because that would involve turning on
lights, etc. which would defeat the purpose
behind the first floor only plan.

Bravard said that funding is the key to
the whole problem and that this year is probably the worst year for funding. He said
that low funding and increases in bills make
it hard for fhe library to attempt an increase
in hours.
Bravard said that the library's electricity
bill has been increased by a penny per
kilowatt hour, which adds up to a lot of
money, considering all the kilowatt hours
the library uses. He remarked on the
a-mount of money it costs for the upkeep of
the library per year, citing a 1975-76 figure
of $137,768 for electricity, water, heat and
housekeeping.
Bravard said that the first cutback in
library hours occurred in the 1970's. Prior
to that time the library had been open on
Friday nights and Saturday mornings.
Bravard said that there is a problem in even
keeping the present library hours as they
are, let alone increasing hours. He said,
"Over the years we've protected the present
hours against all sorts of pressure.''

CAS Fights
Aid Cuts
Funding for student financial aid
programs will continue to drop if President
Reagan has his way. According to
Executive Director of the Commonwealth
Association of Students (CAS) Joyce
Cheepudom and Bob Klein, CAS coordinator at Bloomsburg, many cutbacks and
rate hikes are in store for unsuspecting
students.
Cheepudom and Klein were herie
Monday to distribute student service
questionnaires, and to try to renew interest
in LHSC's CAS chapter. "1 think that every "
campus needs CAS, especially Lock
Haven," said Cheepudom.
She said that increased student support
is needed to stop the onslaught of aid cuts
and rate increases made by federal and
state governments and the individual
colleges. "Students are basically being
screwed, they're being screwed on all
levels...If we don't fight, no one else is
going to fight it." said Cheepudom.
Cheepudom said that unless students let
the government know that they oppose cuts •
and increases, they can expect:
-a 44 percent across the board cut in
basic grants.
-a $250-350 tuition increase proposed by
the state for the 1981-83 year.
-Withdrawal of federal funds totaling
$3.4 billion for the State Student Incentive
Grant Program, which provides additional
funding to the PHEAA program.
-a ceiling on Guaranteed Student Loans
(GSL( and a mandatory needs analysis test

Editorially Speaking
This coming Wednesday, December 16th, is a very Important one for Lock Haven
State College students, at least for those of you who are concerned with spiralling college costs. Eric Stonecipher, campus organizer for the Comihonwealth Association of
Students, will be here trying to bring life back to an organization that has been In critical
condition since the graduation of the past campus representative last May.
What the CAS does for you and I Is that it's the only organized voice that we have to
tell legislators In Harrisburg what we think of the Job they're doing, playing with our
future every time they vote to support another tuition hike. In case you didn't know, the
possibility of a tuition hike in excess of three hundred dollars is a realistic possibility for
next year.
What can you do about it? Come down to the PUB Wednesday evening at six
o'clock. How would you like it if you and your parents wouldn't be able to come up
with the money to stay for your tuition next semester? With the cutbacks planned for
financial aid recipients, that also is a distinct possibility.
CAS has suffered an identit:^ crisis at Lock Haven, and for the most part doesn't have
a very favorable reputation on campus. That in part Is due to the impeachment of the
person who was elected as the new oiganizer on campus, and the apathy shown by the
person who was selected as a replacement.
But don't get down on CAS. A lot of people wonder what their dollar goes for, and
it's a good chance for yon to find out what It is used for, and what you can do to prevent a tuition hike for next year. You also might find out that you might be interested in
what CAS docs, and that you'd like to become Involved in it. You inight even discover
that CAS could benefit you. Wednesday night at six o'clock in the PUB.
Congratulations to the finance committee for avoiding making a decision on whether
or not the women's field hockey team should receive championship rings. Just
remember, I'd be the last person to cry sex discrimination if they don't get them after
the soccer team did.
One flnal note of praise goes out to a man who has his priorities in their proper
perspective. This past week, Neil Turner pulled a wrestler from the starting line-up
because of poor class attendance. It sets a good example for his program and for other
members of the team. It also shows me something when a coach makes a decision that
will lieneflt an athlete in the long run, regardless of the immediate outcome.

The Eagle *s Claws
By JONATHAN BRAVARD
"Tis the season for paranoia. Fa la la la
..." Or at least that is the song Howard
Reynolds, the PUB Director, seems to be
singing. What's the matter Howie, afraid
you're going to lose your job.
Let us examine what Reynolds job is.
Well that's something that's tough to do.
Why you ask? Well it seems that there are
at least two job descriptions floating
around, that say what the PUB Director's
job is. According to one soiree close to
Reynolds the poor guy has lost his copy of
the contract. It figures, he also claims to
not be able to remember the last name of
SCC President elect Lou Alberse.
Some of you may ask how I justify my
claim of paranoia in the PUB Director's office. Well first, there was the case of
Reynolds calling in the advisor to the Eagle
Eye and asked him to check the writings of
a certain senior staff columnist. He also
wants to move the Eagle Eye offices to
some place else on campus, because the
Eagle Eye keeps finding out about confidential SCC matters. You know, stuff like
the 30% Bookstore mark-up. A move like
that would be like moving the Washington
Post to Harrisburg. One last mention of
possible paranoia is - why does Reynolds
stick his head in the Eagle Wing every five
minutes, could he be afraid of a coup de tat

t

forming there?
Is there any reason why we should have a
PUB director? In the opinion of this writer
and a number of people high up in college
administration, the answer is no. According
to sources within the SCC itself, things
could possibly run much smoother if there
were no Director. The solution is simple.
Have the PUB run by an advisory board
made up of snack bar manager, Bookstore
manager and of course the SCC executive
board. They would elect a chairperson and
go about running the SCC in a co-operative
manner. If you're worried about legal matters, that's why there is a lawyer on retainer
to the SCC. What could be simpler, we
could have the people who know how to
run their end of the show and not have one
person making the decisions. In the end a
move to eliminate the PUB director's job
could only result in turning a business back
into a service for the students. Somewhere
along the line that phrase got lost. The
Bookstore as well as the snack bar are not
businesses they are student services. That's
something that far too many people in the
SCC have forgotten. It's also something we
the students shouldn't let them forget.
But of course that is my own opinion. I
suggest that you all come.and see the man in
action. The next Senate meeting is
December 16, in the lower lounge of the
PUB at 6:00. Be there! Aloha!

You Asked For It

Dear Editor,
In response to Jonathan Bravard's Eagle
Claws article in Friday, December 4th's
issue of the Eagle Eye, we would hke to offer our comments on such a biased column.
In case you, Mr. Bravard, have been living under a rock or have been drunk since
the semester began, Lou Alberse has not yet
been inaugurated. So, you unjustly took the
liberty of condeming one of your former
candidates. Is that what you call losing with
grace?
A president is elected by the majority. He

is chosen to represent his people and use
their ideas. You said that Mr. Alberse
"likes everyone else's plans" and "takes
them as his own." Is that not the job of a
president - to speak out for the public?
Allow us to let everyone in on a secret.
Mr. Bravard won only 35 votes. Go,
Jonny.Go!
In closing we would like to remind
everybody of the following fact. Nixon was
president - Bravard never came close.
Not 5 of the 35.

Fit Tips - Staying in Sliape Over the Winter Months
BY ROBIN LUCARINI
STAFF COLUNMIST
As the thermometer steadily drops in
temperature, frost and snow become more
familiar and the bite of winter more brutal,
the once bustling streets have become vacant, the lawns and campus grounds almost
unoccupied and the familiar sounds of
human life has disappeared. Where did
everybody go?
Inside! We walk from class to class, car
to home as quickly as possible to avoid that
winter chill. And once we get inside, we
usually stay down! For many of us
(especially the devout beach bums!), these
colder months mean hot chocolate, fire
places and as little movement as possible!
Although staying bundled up in a warm
house may be fun, too much of a good

ling is still too much. Get up, get out and
get that blood circulating!
Remember that old pair of ice skates you
used to have? Dig them out of the attic,
brush off the dust and find yourself some
friends and a frozen pond. It's free, it's fun
and it's perfect way to keep in shape. Just
remember - it's a wise idea to pick a shallow
pond and be sure it's frozen - you can save
swimming for the summer!
While you're at it, grab your old sled or
toboggan and put them into use too.
Nothing can be compared to whizzing down
at full speed a hill of fresh fallen snow.
Caution - beware of trees, they jump out at
you quickly!
If you're a skier, you alreadly know how
exciting the sport is. But if you've never
gone down-hill skiing, it is truly an ex-

perience not to be missed. It may be a bit
expensive, but if you work over the winter
break, you should be able to put out a few
dollars towards a good cause - you. You'll
surely get your money's worth in fun and
exercise. Three things to remember - go
with a friend who can teach you the basics,
learn how to stop before you take your first
run, and don't forget your long Johns! The
first time skiier often spends more time lying on the hill, rather than going down
it...keep trying!
These are only a few of the wide variety
of physical activities to be enjoyed in the
winter months. If you'd like something less
strenuous, never rule out a good long walk.
With the proper attire-gloves, boots, a scarf
and hat, (and those long Johns, of course!),
a walk through a fresh blanket of white on

I Anyone See My Ring ?
BY JOE KIRBY
GUEST COLUMNIST
As students of this college you have one
exclusive right, that is to vote. Whether it
be for the S.C.C. Executive officers or for
the S.C.C. senators. With this vote you are
asking these individuals to make decisions
for you. the student body. These senators
and executive board members meet to
discuss some problems and ideas in the
"best interest" of the students.
But we as students want these people to
make decisions for us, not just to sit at a
meeting and chew the fat. When they can't
reach a decision they say."Oh, we'll
discuss this matter next week!" Some say
that reasons for this is that they want to go
back to their constituents and find out how
|hey feel about the issue. But two problems
arise. First, most of these "decision
makers" do not go back to their
constituents to find out how they feel.
Secondly, if they do go back to them and
and find out how they feel, and if the
constituents view is different from the
senator's view, the senator says, "1 don't
give a damn and I'll vote the way I damn
please." Some of our senators have been
doing this for quite some time now. From
now on, go to your senator and ask him or
her how they voted on the last important
isue. If they didn't vote the way you
wanted them to, then tell them so. This to
say the least, is not power of the press, but
inconsistency and insecurity of the
senators !!!
This discussion leads me to a meeting held
recently by the S.C.C. Finance Committee.
A group of individuals, namely the
Women's Field Hockey Team, who are
NCAA Division 2 National Champs, went
into the meeting and asked these "decision
makers" for money for rings for their
achievement. They based their inquiry on a
decision made last year by the Getz
administration. That decision was to grant
our Men's Soccer Team, who were the
NCAA Divvision 2 National Champs,
$2,000 to purchase rings for their fine
achievement. The decision makers at that
time (I myself being one of them) said yes
to the request and granted that money.
Now before going any further lets look at
some arguments for this allocation of
money.

First, as I gathered recently from
someone, "almost one third of our S.C.C.
BUDGET GOES TO ATHLETICS. Isn't
that enough for them? Now one jsquad in
this group wants $2,000 more! Isn't it
enough satisfaction for them just to play?"
The answer is "NO !" Sure our athletes
are using the Lock Haven State name, and
sure all of them are giving their 110
percent out on the field, court or mat. But
one point we must look at is those who
acheive the highest honor, such as national
champions, should receive some kind of
recognition for their acheivment rather
than a "nice going guys."
A second argument is that we don't have
that kind of money now. We lost all of that
money on the Utopia concert, now we have
to watch how we spend our money.
BULLSHIT S.C.C. ! Recently our P&L
sheets (profit and loss) came out. It showed
a $27,000 profit so far for this semester in
the bookstore ! Who the hell is the S.C.C.
kidding? If we have $27,000 profit, I'm
sure $2,000 of it could go to those women in
their purchase of those rings. And lets not
lie again (Burge administration) to the
students of this college about where that
money should go. The budget has already
been figured out and the only unexpected
expense that we have is our loss from the
Utopia concert.
Finally, an argument would be to buy
them something less expensive such as
college bookstore pen and pencil sets, post
cards of Lock Haven's Main Street U.S.A.,
or even a purchase of an official L.H.S.C.
shirt. Well the problem goes back to the
Getz administration. Why didn't they go
cheaper on the soccer team's purchase?
I'm not saying that the purchase of these
rings was wrong, I'm saying we should
have purchased the rings for them, and we
should purchase th6 rings for the women!
The number of times you are National
Champions is not the case. The point is
that you ARE National Champions! To
Char, . Sandy. Teri Roxi, Laura and
Jeanette, all seniors who played their last
game in a Loek Haven uniform at that
National Tournament, I say congratulations and I wish you the best of luck in
the future. 1 can only hope that you receive
that special recognition that you, and the
rest of the players deserve.

a brisk snowy day can be a most beautiful
and invigorating experience. And along the
way, maybe you can get a little crazy andthrow a couple snowballs, wrestle around
or just play in the stuff! It won't hurt to get
your nose a little wet!
These next three months don't have to be
spent within the confinement of four walls.
Winter provides the ingredients for great
activity mixed with lots of good times and
laughter! the more time we spend in the
cold, the higher our tolerance will be to it.
So, though many of us still have our
preference in the wanner days of summer,
there's no reason why we can't make the
best of winter. If we keep that in mind,
maybe we'll be able to enjoy this coming
season a lot more and leave the hibernating
to the bears.

Fayocavitz

Named 1st Greek
What is the Greek of the Month program? Greek of the month was developed
in the All Greek Council to enable each
fraternity and sorority to nominate a
representative who best exemplifies the
qualities of their organizations.

John Fayocavitz

Who is the first Greek of the Month, and
what are his qualifications? The first Greek
of the Month in the history of Lock Haven
Staste College is John (Fayo) Fayocavitz
from Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity.
John is from Clark Summit, Pennsylvania. He attended Abbington Heights
High School and is presently a HPER major at Lock Haven State College. He
became a member of TKE in the fall of
1979, and has been an active and motivated
member ever since.
Fayocavitz is presently the sports coor-

of

the Month._

dinator for TKE, and has taken extreme interest in his role. In correlation with intramural activities he has also entered TKE
in a state-wide flag football league.
Aside from the athletic aspect,
Fayocavitz has made major improvements
on the fraternity house. He made major
contributions to the house's new "social
room" and has totally renovated his
bedroom, which will have a beneficial
aesthetic effect for years to come.
Fayocavitz is the All Greek Council
representative for TKE, and was very essential to the overall success of the recent
Greek-Fling.
It can be said that Fayocavitz has exceeded the realms of his fraternal obligations by
reaching out and helping a new student,
DeDie Welshans. DeDie is confined to a.
wheelchair, and when the brothers of Tau

Kappa Epsilon heard about her situation
they offered their help. Fayocavitz was the
first to take on this responsibililty and has
continued to do so.
Every Monday, Wednesday and Thursday Fayocavitz takes DeDie to her classes
and then back to her dormitory. When she
needs assistance Fayocavitz is always glad
to help. Fayocavitz introduced DeDie to her
first party at TKE by bringing her down to
the house, escorting her throughout the
house, and returning her to the dorm.
Fayocavitz's major contribution to DeDie
was to build her a desk that attaches to her
wheelchair for use in her classes.
As you can see, John Fayocavitz is well
deserving of the title of Greek of the
Month.

...Dinkier Named for November
Lee Dinkier was selected Greek of the
Month for November. Lee is from Wellingboro. New Jersey, and is presently a
Phys. Ed. Major, and is also in the LHSC
Athletic Training program.
She became activated in the Alpha Sigma
Tau sorority in the Spring pledge class of
'81, called the 14 Women. Since her activation, Lee has become Assistant Rush Chairman.
Assistant Rush Chairman duties include,
aiding Rush Chairman in such activities as
Theme parties, for formal rush at the beginning of the semester, and organizing ideas
to introduce prospective members into the
sorority.
Beyond the duties to her sorority, Lee enjoys being in the LHSC Training program
and her grades reflect this. One might say
her studies have payed off beyond her own

expectations. On October 8, 1981, Coach
John Thomas, a Lock Haven Jr. football
coach for 28 years, collapsed during a football game, Lee rushed to his aid and began
mouth to mouth resuscitation. Rushing
from the stands, a doctor came to Lee's aid
where they performed two man CPR for 15
minutes until the ambulance arrived. Mr.
Thomas was taken to Geisinger Medical
Center where he was later told that he had
suffered a heart attack due to a build up of
scar tissue in his heart. Asked how she
reacted to the situation she said "I didn't
even think about what I was doing - it was
instinctive." After this incident was over,
Lee went to her apartment and cried, not
believing what she had just done. Lee
Dinkier plans to go to Physician's Asistant
school, a vocation that she will be well
qualified for.

Choir Concert Tuesday
BY BRIAN SANSONI
(See photo page 8)
Music of the Christmas season will be
heard at Lock Haven State on Tuesday,
December 15th when the College Choir performs the annual Winter Choral Concert.
The program will be held in Sloan Theatre
at 8:00 pm.
The choir will be singing along with the
College Singers, the Choral Seminar, and a
number of soloists. There will be nearly 130
singers in all.
The featured piece in the program will be
the Appalachian Nativity by Lewis H. Horton. This music is based on a system of
"shape notes" devised in the late eighteenth
century. Soloists will be Kevin Thompson,
Jeff Shepard, Sue Funt, Sandy Galbreath,

and Sheree Lauver.
According to choir director Gary
Renzelman, the singers have been practicing for this concert nearly all semester. "We
have some good singers and some good
talent," said Renzelman. He added that the
winter concert goes pretty well every year
and they generally get a good turnout.

Ceil Stedman-Budding Talent at Lock Haven

Ceil Stedman

By BARBARA KAUFFMAN
Although many students may not know
it, there is a budding talent in our midst
here at Lock Haven State. Cecilia Stedman,
"Ceil", is a senior in the Special Education
program and one of her most profitting
hobbies is playing the guitar and singing for
both personal and monetary rewards.
Ceil is from Greenlawn, New York, and a
family of five. In spite of a slow start. Ceil
has been playing the guitar for 8 years. In
7th grade. Ceil received a guitar as a
Christmas present from her parents. After
trying it on her own and not getting the
desired results, she became discouraged,
and it wasn't until two years later that she
decided to attempt to play the guitar again.

Scrollers New Addition
to Greek Life At LHSC
By CHARUE ROBERTS
• The Scroller's Club is the newest addition
to the Greek system at Lock Haven State
College. They are a pledge class for Kappa
Alpha Psi, a national fraternity whose
Delta Theta Chapter is located at Penn
State University.
The five member club is swing pledging,
or in ordinary' terms, pledging the Penn
State Chapter, while attending school here
at Lock Haven. The goal of the club is to
establish their own chapter here, but they
must first pass through a two year colony
stage to achieve that status.
The group is probably best known for
their matching outfits. On the back of their
sweatshirts is the word, AIWKAILO,
which stands for an Endowing Vital Force
of Good Omen. On their sleeves are the
numbers one through five, and while each
member has his own number, they stress the
, fact that they are one unified body with five
distinct parts.
President Keith Dixon stresses that their
diversified backgrounds have not hindered
their ability to work well together. Keith, a
senior, majoring in Sociology, is a 2nd
Lieutenant in the Army Reserve. He finished 2nd in the East in his weight class for the
LHSC Boxing team last season, and is a
peer counselor, and member of the Advisory Board on campus.
Vice President Mike Courtan is a junior,
studying Computer Science, and is a
member of the Wrestling and track teams.
Paris Hyman, Secretary, is a Health and
Physical Education Major. He is the Assistant Coach for the basketball team, and
holds a state track medal in the quartermile.
Treasurer Doug LeGette is a senior, studying Health and Phys. Ed., and is probably best known for his contribution to
the Bald Eagles Basketball team. He is team
Captain, holds the single-season scoring
record, and needs only 80 some points to
become Lock Haven's all-time leading
scorer.
James Gamble is also a member of Kappa
Sigma Phi, as well as holding the mile relay
record, whicn he won aunng the NCArt
track nationals in 1980. He is a junior, studying Management Science.

Keith contributed their desire to start a
'Kappa Alpha Psi Chapter here as partly to
"increase the versatility of the Greek system
on campus." Doug added that he felt the
need for a chapter from his peers. "We are
the foundation," said Keith, " a foundation
that can lead to a good thing here."
As other Greek organizations on campus,
the Scroller's Club has a local advisor, Mr.
Robert Lynch. Also, they have ten little
sisters, or sweethearts. Deb Campbell,
c o o r d i n a t o r , Venessa Phillips, cocoordinator, Pat Aori, Leslie Norwood,
Bobbi Terry, Roz Preston, and Anjel
Crawley.

As another Christinas present, in 9th grade,
her mother offered her free classical guitar
lessons, which was just the motivation that
Ceil needed to pick up the guitar again.
She's made unbelievable progress since
then, and according to Ceil " I took lessons,
now I give them."
One of Miss Stedman's most exciting experiences has been playing with the well
known Christian Rock Singer, Phil Keegy.
while she was playing at Belle Springs. It
was a real thrill for her to play with a pro
for the first time. Her most rewarding experience according to Ceil is "playing for
children. Nothing is more beautiful than
hearing 200 little voices singing."
Cell's inspiration through all of her
musical experiences has been the late Harry
Chapin. "He's part of our community
(Long Island), he seems more real to me, he
just seems like home to me." Ceil tries to
incorporate the way he relates to his audience in her own performances.
Among her favorite songs to sing are
"All My Life's A Circle" (Harry Chapin),
and "The Marvelous Toy" (Peter, Paul

and Mary). Folk, rock, pop and bluegrass
are the kinds of music Miss Stedman is
found listening to in her spare time.
Her other hobbies include Girl Scouting,
camping, and writing her own lyrics.
Ceil has played from Tiffany's in New
York to Happy Acre's in Pine Creek. If
you'd like to enjoy Ceil and take in her own
style of music, she will be playing at Happy
Acres this Sunday from 8-10 in the evening.

Women Cagers Perfect...
BY JULIE BINTRIM
The women's basketball team upped its
season record to 5-0 with a narrow 67-66
victory at Scranton this past Tuesday. On
Friday the team recorded its fourth victory
with a 12 point win over the Bisons of
Bucknell.
Against Scranton the Lady Eagles had a
31-28 lead at the end of the first half, and
managed to hold the edge despite the loss of
Teresa Derksen. Derksen, who has been a
standout for LHSC all season, was forced
to leave the game with ten minutes remaining in the contest because of an ankle injury.
Although Derksen did not play the whole
game, she still led the Lady Eagles in scoring, pouring in 20 points. She also had nine
rebounds. She was followed by freshman
Helen Woltman, who scored 16 points.
Woltman also had nine rebounds. Last

>c .vading scorer, junior Sandy Miller,
added 14 points and pulled down seven rebounds.
Head coach Fred Riley said that the team
suffered a bit of a letdown after Derksen
was forced to leave the game, but he was
also very pleased with the way they stayed
together and played as a team. "I'm very
pleased with the way we got everybody involved in the game," he said. "We don't
have to count on one or two players to do
the job for us."
Riley said that the team's success is largely due to hard work and preperation.
"These women are very coachable," he
said.
The Lady Eagles will take part in the
SalisbiU7 State Invitational today and
tomorrow. They will return to the Thomas
Field House this Monday for a game with
East Stroudsburg. Tip-off will be at 7:15
pm.

...Men Drop 4th Straight

BY DAN McGURGAN
SPORTS EDITOR
After winning its first three games, the
Lock Haven State men's basketball team
has lost four in arow. The Bald Eagles
latest defeat was to the Scranton Royals,
87-66 last Tuesday.
Head coach Brad Black said, "There
really isn't any one reason for the four
losses, but rather, it's a combination of
things. We're mostly suffering from inconsistency."
Scranton jumped off to a 12-0 lead, and
Black said that his team shot very poorly at
the beginning of the game. "I think our
guys were too psyched-up at the start of the
game, and they're shots were off, " he said.
The Royals went to the foul line 34 times,
while LHSC visited the charity stripe only
II times. The Royals sunk 25 free throws.
The Bald Eagles sunk only four.
Scranton led 46-31 at halftime, but
LHSC cut the lead to five, 55-50 with approximately 7:(X) to go in the game. Costly

turnovers and fouls by the Bald Eagles
enabled the Royals to put the game away.
Terry Gilman led all Bald Eagle scorers
with 20 points. Doug LeGette, who is an
All-American candidate, was held to only
10 points. Greg O'Connell also had 10
points for Lock Haven.
Last weekend the team traveled to
Virginia to participate in the RandolphMacon Tournament. On Friday the Bald
Eagles lost a heartbreaker to St. Paul's
(Lawrenceville, Virginia), 89-88. In the consolation game LHSC fell to PittJohnstown, 75-71.
Black isn't ready to push the panic button. He feels that his team has the talent to
go on and have a fine season. But, he also
realizes that his Bald Eagles must eliminate
those moments in the game where they let
the momentum slip away from them. He
said that this is usually caused by mental
lapses. He also stresses that the team must
play team oriented basketball, instead of
thriving on individual efforts.

Gymnasts Finish 6th
BY DAN McGURGAN
SPORTS EDITOR
The women's gymnastics team finished
sixth out of a field of eight teams at the
Frostburg State Invitational last Saturday.
LHSC finished with a total of 99.5 points.
Keene St., New Hampshire, finished first
with 122.3 points.
"Our goal was to Hnish with 110
points,"said coach Mel Maimo. "I was
pleased with our vaulting, which was the
last event of the competition.. The team was
way behind going into the vaulting compeition, but they didn't quit."
Lyime Maloney was the best performer in
had a score of 8.15. Debbie Salvator was second with a score of 8.05, and Debbie Fish
was third for Lock Haven with a score of
8.00.
The team's second best event was the
floor exercises. Jeimifer Frayne had the best
score of all the Lock Haven performers in
this event, scoring 6.85. Fish was second
;^tlv a score of 6.70.

Frayne also led the team in the balance
beam exercises. She finished with a score of
6.75. She was followed by Fish who had a
score of 5.90.
The uneven parallel bars proved to be the
worst event for LHSC. Janice Fitzpatrick
led Lock Haven with a score of 5.65.
The team will play all but two of the eight
teams that competed at Frostburg later in
the season. These teams include: Indiana,
Pa., Pitt-Johnstown, Ursinus, Wilson and
Frostburg. Both Wilson and Ursinus finished behind LHSC.
Manno said that this was the first time
the team competed against other squads
before Christmas break, and she feels that
this will help the team later on.
Each team has six women participate in
each of the four events, and the best four
scores are counted into the overall score.
"Our goal is to score at least a 7.00 for each
individual performer," said Manno. "That
means we want to score approximately 28
points in each event, which would give us,
an ovdjMl score of approximately 110
points."

Award winners at Tuesday's football banquet included Ray
Leiphart, Ross Nevel Unsung Hero Award; Terry Crecraft,
Hubert Jack Award (offense); Bobby Lynn, Offensive MVP;
Coach Jack Fisher with the Outstanding Senior Award won by
Don Amoriello^who was unable to attend; Dave Zielenskie Russ
Carmen Memorial Award (defense); and Randy Graham, Hubert
Jack A ward (defense).

Against Opponents

State

By MARTIN PFLIEGER
Sports Editor
The Lock Haven State College boxing
team turned in an impressive performance
Wednesday night in the 3rd Annual Fall Invitational Intercollegiate Boxing Championship held in Thomas Field House,
registering four wins in seven bouts.
The Bald Eagle Boxers went up against
fighters from Penn State, Shippensburg,
Dickinson, University of Pennsylvania, and
Penn State-Altoona.
Opening the evening's card at 126, Lock
Haven's Keith Dixon won a split decision,
surprising Keith Cuffy of Pennsylvania^
Cuffy was an Eastern runner-up last year,
and Dixon was an Eastern quarter-finalist.
The 156 pound bout, the most exciting of
the night, was dominated by Senior Captain
Rob Revercomb as he unanimously
defeated Shippensburg's Cliff Hopkins, an
Eastern runner-up last year. Revercomb is
expected to be one of the top 156 pounders
in the nation this year.
In the other 156 ,pound fight. Lock
Haven sophomore Pete Rana beat Gerard
Smith of Shippensburg, in a Referee Stops
Contest (RSC) at the end of the first round.

Sophomore Curt LaRue captured the 172
pound bout with a first round RSC over
Evan Forrester of Shippensburg.
At 11^, sophomore Dave Washington,
fighting at a height and weight disadvantage, looked good but couldn't hold off
Frank Mancini from Penn State.
In the 147 bout, sophomore Joe DiFrancisco lost a close decision to Rick Gruth of
Penn State. At 132, sophomore Ken
Cooper lost a split decision to Ron Zing,
the Eastern Champion last year.
Not appearing on Wednesday night's
card due to injury or illness were AllAmerican Jesse Shaw (180), Bill Lingle
(147), and Steve Inaker (Hwt).
Shaw, last year's National runner-up,
sustained an eye injury playing basketball,
Lingle was being rested after a fight in New
York just two weeks ago. Inaker was
sidelined with a broken nose.
Although the invitational'didn't have a
starstudded card, according to Dr. Ken
Cox, faculty advisor/ associate coach, the
bouts gave many of the novice fighters
good ring experience and good competition.

Matmen Thump Rams; Mat-Town Tomorrow
By KEVIN CAMPBELL
The Lock Haven State matmen won their
second consecutive dual meet by turning
back the Rams of West Chester, 35-7. Capturing eight of the evening's ten matches, the
Bald Eagles improved their dual meet
record to 2-0 on the young season.
Jim Bresnak got things started for the
Eagle grapplers by notching a superior decision over Brian Smith. Bresnak, wrestling
at 118 pounds, defeated his outclassed opponent,15-l. Chris Albright followed with a
6-0 victory at the 126 weight class.
The evening's first pin was recorded by
Wade Potter. The Bald Eagle grappler
wasted no time, dropping his opponent
with 1:21 remaining in the second period.
Barry Bartek was then victorious at 150
pounds, defeating West Chester's John
Tornetta 11-7.

The most impressive victory was scored
by Eagle wrestler Doug Buckwalter. Trailing 6-1 after two periods, Buckwalter
countered with ten final period points to
defeat his opponent 11-6. Bob Depont and
Rick Peterson sealed the Lock Haven victory by recording a default victory and a pin
successively, Peterson in his first varsity encounter, after missing last year with
mononucleosis.
The Bald Ragles will be back in action
starting tomorrow at 11 a.m. as they host
the Sixth Annual Mat-Town U.S.A. Tournament. Lock Haven will be hard pressed
to repeat their third place finish of last year,
due to injuries and a stronger field than in
any previous Mat-Town.
Mike Millward (126) will be out for four

Sports of All Sorts
By The Sports Staff
For all of you Pittsburgh Steeler fans out
there who are still brooding over last week's
loss to Oakland, and the unfortunate injury
to Terry Bradshaw, cheer up. Better times
are coming. At the rate they're going they
should have the second draft pick
next
year, right behind the hapless Baltimore
Colts.
There's only one word that comes to
mind when you look back at Joe Frazier's
comeback attempt last week...BOG!I!
Tonight the king of the comebacks,
Muhammed All will show just how far he's
dropped in stature. Good news though.
Don King has arranged a match between
Frazier and All. It's going to be called
Suckerfight IV.
The Phillies, after dealing away Keith
Moreland and Bob Boone, will look to Bo
Diaz behind the plate. Diaz is a respectable
hitter and has a great arm, but it will be
tough for him to throw anyone out this year

with the Pnils pitching staff. Most of the
time, runners will be too busy circling the
bases to try and steal any.
Gorgeous George has done it again, then
he didn't, then he did. Steinbrenner announced that Gene Michaels will take over
the Yankees in 1983. Bob Lemon will remain at the helm for 1982. If George can't
sign Reggie, rumor has it that he'll send
Jackson to Oakland for Billy Martin and a
marshmallow salesman to be punched later.
Two NFL Plays of the Week; Ron
Jaworski for the non-defensive play of the
week, with an attempted tackle that broke
open the game for Washington, and John
Sciarra for the Golden Hands award, clinching the Redskins victory with a great bobble of a field goal snap.
This proves once again that the
Philadelphia Eagles are a team that can
grasp defeat from the jaws of victory on a
second's notice.

weeks with a broken hand, Doug Gallagher
(150) will miss a month with a shoulder
separation, and Joe Baranik (158) reinjured
an ankle and is doubtful for the tournament.
Chris Albright, last year's champion at
126, and Don Parsley (134), runner-up at
that same weight a year ago, will be the
mainstays in an injury plagued Une-up.
Defending champion Michigan State will
send Greg Sargis (150) back to defend his title, while second place finisher Tennessee
will return Tony Mills (3rd at 150) and Tim
Cooper (3rd at 177).
The pretournament favorite would have
to be Bloomsburg, one of four Eastern
Wrestling League teams in the event.
Bloomsburg has tour INCAA quaiitiers
returning from last year, including Don

Reese, last year's 134 champion, and a three
time NCAA qualifier.
Two other teams expected to greatly
strengthen the competition are Penn State
and Syracuse. Penn State is ranked 9th in
this year's pre-season polls, after a 6th place
finish at nationals last year. The mainstay
of the Penn State contingent is John
Hanrahan* (167), a third place finisher in
NCAA's last year.
Syracuse finished 7th in the nation last
year, and brings three returning NCAA
qualifiers in their first appearance.
Other teams will boast some great individual performers from their squads.
Millersville's Randy March was a MatTown champion last year, while Slippery
Rock's Anthony Calderaio finished eighth
at nationals.

By BARB KAUFFMAN
When delinquents don't respond to
anything else, they send them to Jackie
Piermattei, foster mother to 112 children
over the past 12 years. The children that
she works with are labeled "impossible to
work with" by other sources. Mrs.
Piermattei helped these adolescents to
rejoin society and become productive,
contributing members of society.
Mrs. Jackie Piermattei spoke at Lock
Haven State College December 7, and held
her audjence captive every minute.
She became involved in this program
through, the Northumberland County
Juvenile Probation Office. She offered her
home to juvenile delinquents
that
were considered unable to assume
acceptable roles in society. Her inspiration
to become involved was the fact of her own
good fortune,"We've been given so much,
if you can't give to another human life,
than your own life is not worthwhile."
Her home is not run any differently from
any average American home. The rules are
set by the children that live there, along
with the appropriate punishment.
The
peers are usually fair about the severity of

Delinquency
the punishments according to Mrs.
Piermattei. No drugs, no hanging out on
street corners and. attending church every
Sunday are just a few of the rules
established in the Piermattei household.
They must also try to keep a clean slate
once they cross Jackie's threshold.
She attributes the success of her
program to her principle of "structered
love." She feels that much of the juvenile
delinquency is a result of broken homes
In spite of the severity of some of the
crimes committed by the youth that she
houses, ranging from arson to armed
robbery to murder, the children have never
done anything malicious to any members of
her household. On the whole, Mrs.
Piermattei states that the children have
worked out rather well. In fact most of
them still keep in touch, "It's all
worthwhile when you get those special
phone calls on Mother's Day and
Christmas."
The program that Mrs. Piermattei works
for has had a remarkable success rate. 82'/2
of the youth that have left her home have
returned to becomine productive law-abiding citizens. One in fact is now a military
policiman.

Captivates
Her part in the program is to fill that
need for love and discipline that so many
young people lack as a result of family
problems. "They just need to know what
the other side of life is, once they know how
good it can be, they'll never committ a
crime again."
What would possess a housewife with
fouj children to open up her home to young
criminals? If vou don't care, who will?"

Youth
This altruistic attitude has made Mrs.
Piermattei's home an example to others.
She now counsels other foster parents and
helps with the training program. The
advice that she always gives out is:"Be
patient, don't expect gratitude or
immediate results. Be prepared to give and
give and be satisfied with the satisfaction
of knowing that somehow you have helped
the kid."

Edinboro Student Murdered
EDINBORO, Pa. - An Edinboro State
College student is dead and another has
been charged with criminal homicide
following a stabbing last weekend.
Raymond Spera, of Bloomfield, died en
route to St. Vincent's hospital early last
Saturday morning as a result of a single stab
wound in the chest.
Robert Partlow, 19, is being held in connection with the death, which according to
the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, may have
stemmed from a fight at a party one month
before.
Partlow had been ejected from a party by
five men, one of whom he had punched at a
Halloween party, according to Edinboro
Police Chief Ralph Barone. The five men
pinned Partlow to the ground after, accor-

Oecresed funding for Supplemental
Educational Opportunity (SEGG) used
when students have exhausted other aid
programs and still cannot meet expenses.
Cheepudom said that if governmental
trends in financial aid continue, middle
class students may be unable to attend
college. She said that programs are
increasingly targeted for the students of
the lower income families, with the results
that only the poor and the rich may be able
to attend college in the future.
On the opposite side, Cheepudom said
that State System of Higher Education
(SSHE) Bill has been passed by the Senate
Education Committee. She said the bill still
must be passed by the senate. The CAS
has been supporting passage of the bill for
the past year.

Partlow was released, the newspaper
said, after he agreed to leave, but instead
began wielding a knife. The group again
pursued Partlow, but when he turned and
again began swinging the knife at them, all
but Spera stopped.
According to sources from The Spectator, student newspaper at ESC, it was
unclear whether Spera fell on the knife or if
Partlow had stabbed him.
Sources at The Spectator said that the
murder was the culmination of an increase
in serious crime, including rapes and
assaults, according to police records, at
Edinboro.

The new system would also give each
college university status and provide more
autonomy in the operation of individual
colleges.
Cheepudom said that student letters to
legislators
concerning
financial
aid
programs do serve a purpose. She said that
students as voters must be recognized by
legislators.
Klein said that many students feel that
any efforts they would make have little or
no effects on the cutback situation. He said
that if enough people complain, there is a
