by JULIE BRENNAN
Managing Editor
Student Co-Operative
Council President Jayne
Bolduc ended her term of
office Wednesday night by
presiding over her final
Senate meeting. Bolduc
expressed her thanks to all
of the Senators for their
help and
cooperation
throughout her term of office.
Bolduc's final duty as
president was to perform
the ritual of swearing in the
new SCC Executive Board:
President—Joe Harper, 1st
Vice President—Jeff Caulkins, 2nd Vice President—
Colin Weaver, Treasurer—
Diana Hummel. Recording
Secretary — Libby Grohe
and Corresponding Secretary—Sue Daum. After the
instalation procedure was
completed. Joe Harper,
new SCC President, chaired the remainder of the
Senate meeting.
Harper's first steps of
action as SCC President
were the appointments of
an SCC Parliamentarian
and various committee
chairpersons: LHS PreMed. student Robin Dick
was approved by the Senate
as SCC Pariamentarian;
Christopher Flynn was approved as Chairperson of
the Cultural Affairs Committee; Jack Sohnleitner
was approved as Social
Committee Chairperson;
and freshman Cecelia
Steadman was approved as
Chairperson of the Election
Committee.
It was also decided at the
meeting that a new Senate
Appropriations Committee
will be appointed at the
first Senate meeting in
January. Presently there
are two vacancies on SAC
and Senator Karen Williams was appointed to fill
one of them for the rest of
the semester.
A Senate election will
also be held in January to
fill vacancies in the Senate.
Senate Standing Committee reports are as
follows: Social Committee
reported that there will be a
Coffeehouse Friday, December 9th featuring Ame
Brav in the Eagle Wing

Stevenson.
Stevenson gave December 19th as the expected
arrival date of the gates.
With construction beginning immediately, the
gates, both traffic and
pedestrian, should be completed by early summer.
Stevenson explained that
the negotiations for the
gates began back in 1970.
The delay of action is a
result of railroad changing
hands from the Pennsylvania Railroad, to Penn

Railroad Gates to be Installed
by GWENA SWEENEY
Train tragedies are expected to be a thing of the
past here at LHS with the
installation of traffic gates
at the intersection of Water
St. and the Conrail Railroad
tracks.
Mr. Don Stevenson,
Maintenance Superintendent, said that the Saftey
Inspection Supervisor in
Harrisburg had been contacted. The only thing that
hasn't been approved is the
automatic signal curcuit.

Central, to Am Track, to
the present company. Conrail, said Stevenson.
The Federal Government
will take on the major
financial burden of the
installation. This is because
of Conrails present financial state. As it stands now
the Federal Government
will pay 90 percent and the
State Government will pay
the other 10 percent.
The only possible delay
that Stevenson forsees is
the possibility of Conrail's
expected layoff.

Beginning next semester, used books will be sold
in the bookstore.,
This,
policy could save 25 percent
of book costs for students.
The program will be in
cooperation with professors, who will attempt to
use the same books in Class
from semester to semester.
A list of books which will be
bought by the bookstore
will be issued before the
start of next semester, and
students can sell those
books to the bookstore,
provided they are in
reasonably good condition.
Books will be bought from
students at 50 percent of
their original value. Then
the bookstore will re-sell
them at 75 percent of thier
original price, 25 percent
more than the price at
which it acquired them.
Mr. Joseph Nagy, director
of the PUB, explained that
this is a national formula,
and the bookstore will be
making the same profit on
used books as it does on
new books. He said that
this profit is necessary for
the bookstore to operate.
Books constitute 60 percent
of all bookstore sales.
"We're in a tight position
on making money on
books," Nagy said.
and student desire for the
program. "If it's not going
to succeed, then we'll
certainly discontinue it."
he said, "but I don't
visualize failure in it."
that a large sale of used
books, will hurt the
publishers, who set book
prices, and force them to
lower prices.
'ScouUng for Handicapped' Program begins
Thirteen Special Education Majors from the
college are participating in
a Scouting for the Handicapped program this year
in the Keystone Central
School District.
Tim Dorsey, Regional
Director for the Boy Scouts,
with the help of Prof. Lewis
Magent, has organized this
program to meet the needs
of the Special Education
pupils and to help supplement their education.
Troop meetings are held
once a week, for one hour,
during the childrens' regular school day. The Special
Education Majors, with the
help of the Scoutmaster,
the classroom teacher,
provide leadership for the
meeting.
The unit activities used
depend upon the individuals in the program.
Adjustments are made to
meet the needs of each
scout. Where possible,
regular scouting procedures are used. Units being
developed at this time are
communications, first aid,
physical fitness and community living.
' 'Those working with the
scouts must not expect too
much," Prof. Magent said,
"but the scouts should be
allowed to try things they
think they are able to do."
The program is divided
into three parts. Cub
Scouting at the Dickey
Elementary School, with
Jim Stabley in charge; a
mixed group of boys and
girls at the Lock Haven
Junior High Schoo, with
Jeane Long and Jeff Knarr
in charge; and an Explorer
Post program at the
LockHaven Senior High
School, with Jessie Genevish in charge.
"A three-day camping
experience is being planned for this Spring," Prof.
Magent said. He urged
anyone wishing to help to
contact him at Akeley 111.
New books will still be
sold, and Nagy described
used book sales as a "trial
plan," depending on the
cooperation of professors

A s the semester draws to a close, and w i t h it
m y career as a student of Lock H a v e n State College,
I look back upon m y year and a half here w i t h both
pleasure a n d bitterness. The t i m e has come to
move o n . But before I go, I'd like to share w i t h you
a few of t h e bitter lessons Lock H a v e n State College
has taught m e . Lessons which have helped to instill
in m e t h e need to go somewhere else. To start over,
hopefully forgetting much of what I've learned
here. Not the things that I've learned in the classrooms of U l m e r , Raub a n d Z i m m e r i i . But rather
that which was learned in the offices of the P U B ,
Sullivan H a l l , the Eagle W i n g and Bentley D i n i n g
Room.
I've learned t h e unique way t h e average Lock
H a v e n student has of coping. " N o matter how
fucked up things a r e , ignore i t . " This attitude will
get one far in life — if you plan a career as a rock.
I've learned no matter what is said, it falls on
the deaf ears of those who are in a position to make
change. N o matter how hard one tries to change
things, he or she is destined to fail unless that person doesn't have to study or go to classes to stay off
of academic probation.
I've learned that a person can give an entire
semester a n d a reasonable good chance for a 3 . 0 , to
try to get a job done for t h e S C C . But if he or she
does not kiss people's asses, the S C C President will
ask for a letter of resignation. I've learned from
others a n d for myself, that no matter how much
someone gives for the S C C , it's never enough.
The saddest, most bitter, most sickening
lesson I've learned here — the lesson Lock H a v e n
State College teaches best — is how to Q U I T , how
to G I V E U P , how to LOSE O N E ' S D E S I R E T O T R Y .
M a n y of you who know me must surely have
thought as you r e a d , " h e ' s no better than anyone
else. H e hasn't really done anything this semest e r . " Y o u ' r e d a m n right! A body can only take so
much bullshit, can only be kicked in the balls for so
long and recover. Perhaps many will disagree with
w h a t I say. For those who do, I cannot feel any res e n t m e n t , only pity.
Uninvolved student of Lock H a v e n State, I adm i r e you. I urge you to stay inside your shells, for
all that involvement in student government can
bring to someone outside the present power clique
is p a i n . T h e y will take all you can give and then
break your spirit.
I only hope that I can gain m y spirit back in
January w h e n I begin again at a new school, where
effort brings results. Lock H a v e n State College's
student government and administration are digging
themselves a lovely grave. In it, may they rest in
peace.

Letters to the Editor...
To the Editor:
Jack Sohnleitner's rambling commentary in the
Eagle Eye of December 6
makes,
among
other
things, some points on the
English Department and
English professors that
should not go unanswered.
While I fully sympathize
with one of his concerns make the curriculum more
challenging - I find his
grasp of realities of
academic life woefully
deficient. I will only deal
with points that concern the
English Department and
English professors.
1. "All are Survey Courses": Not True. Beyond
freshman English - Composition and Dimensions of
Literature - many survey
courses are offered. Survey
courses are the foundation
of the Department's program. They also serve as
the gateway to the major in
English. Let's look at the
record. Next spring we
offer a smorgasbord of
electives: Period Courses
(20th Century Afro American Literature); Single
Author or Single Book
Courses (Milton, Bible as
Literature, Studies in
Shakespeare); Genre Courses (Understanding Fiction,
Worid Drama 11); Thematic
or Special Topics Courses
(Contemporary British
Plays, Jewish American
Literature, Sports in Literature). In addition we offer
courses in Creative Writing, Film, Literary Criticism and Journalism. It is
true next semester we are
offering 20 sections of
Dimensions of Literature
but during this semester we
are offering only three
sections of this course.
2. "No Courses in depth":
Not True. Let's again look
at the record. Courses in
Milton, Shakespeare, The
bible as Literature and
Literary Criticism do focus
on depth rather than
breadth. In addition. "Independent Studies" are
available in the Department
to fill the gaps and to insure
some experience of intensive study of literature
before graduation.
3. "Journalism Media
Studies Major Hurts Other
U n d e r - G r a d u a t e Programs": Not True. I fail to
understand how the Journalism program with more
than one faculty member
offering courses could hurt
other under-graduate programs.
4. "It takes Years to
Change or Add New
Courses": Not True. During the current semester we
developed the following
new courses which are
scheduled for spring:
Sports in Literature, Mass
Media, Contemporary British Plays, Polish Literature
and Jewish American Literature. To schedule these
courses it took only 2-1/2
months from the point of
introduction to the point of
approval by the Management. To my mind, good
courses are products of
careful and thoughtful
planning rather than unseemly hurry. Quick decisions seem to be appropriate to brain or heart
surgeons, not thoughtful
professionals in higher
education. Our colleagues
in other departments and
the Management have
sometimes criticized us for
offering too many new
electives. It is refreshing to
read another point of view
from an English major.
But these clarifications
aside, I believe there is still
a great deal to be done with
the total English Major
Program. A Standing Committee in our Department is
at present addressing itself
to the task of planning our
courses for next year. The
committee and I welcome
suggestions from concerned students. Our doors are
always open to students
who have ideas or complaints to discuss with us.
James Y. Dayananda.
Chairman
Department of English and
Philosophy
COMMENTARY
We all expect the last four days of the semester to be
utter chaos and confusion. Well, the problems have already
started, thanks to the special class schedule made up by the
administration.
First of all, there are some students who have classes
that meet on either Monday, Wednesday, or Friday, while
they have another class on the other two days at the same
time period. Are they supposed to be at both places when it
comes time to take their final?
A similar problem could arise if two sections have an
exam in the same room. This may not be discovered until
the day of the exam.
Studying time is another problem. One student
complained, "I have history on Monday and Wednesday,
and my exam is on Thursday morning. When will I have
time to study?"
Still others may have three or more tests scheduled for
one day. This is ridiculous. These students should see an
administrator and demand that it be changed.
We feel that in order for students to have time to study
for exams, classes should be canceled on Monday, Tuesday,
and Wednesday. As for the other problems, the only
solution for now is to "grin and bear it," but in the future
something must be done.
One solution could be having someone other than the
administration to make up the schedule. They have no
contact with the classroom, so they shouldn't have the job.
A select group of professors and students would be more
efficient.
To the Editor:
Dear Editor and Students,
We student employees of
the cafeteria are very
concerned about the condition the cafeteria is left in
after meals. We would like
to place our complaints to
those of you who are
rational and mature adults
and also to those of you who
are not rational and mature
adults. Our complaints are
as follows:
1. Trays are left on the
tables which we student
employees must bus to the
dish carts.
2. Creating food masterpieces on the tables which
we student employees must
clean up, sometimes with a
scouring pad.
3. We realize that sometimes we are not the most
pleasant people, however,
this unpleasantness is
partly caused by the great
frustrations we feel trying
to figure out what food you
desire by pointing and
grunting at it. We are not
mind readers.
We employees feel that
many of these unfair
reactions are due to
students jumping on the
"Bitch at ARA" bandwagon. Perhaps you should
think of who has to pay the
consequences of these
reactions (hint: your fellow
students). WE recommend
that instead of using your
energies to create excessive
work for we student
employees, you channel
your energies in a more
constructive means.
Thank you for hearing our
side of the story.

To the Editor:
Dear Mr. Rhodes:
This letter is concerning
the Freshman Dinner held
on November 1, 1977. On
behalf of the members of
the Executive Board of the
Residence Hall Association, 1 would like to state
that we were disappointed
in the program, or lack of
program during the dinner.
It was to our understanding that the purpose of such
a dinner was for freshmen
to meet the different deans,
the members of hall
councils, counselors, and
other individuals associated
with the campus. The
freshmen would then have
some concept of who to turn
to with their individual
questions and/or problems.
Since none of this was
done, we saw no actual
benefit from the dinner.
We agree it is an
excellent idea and hope to
see it again next year, but
with a change in format. It
should be held in the
beginning of the seniester
when only the freshmen are
on campus. This allows for
use of the entire cafeteria.
Also, a specific program
should be held, with
introductions made to the
freshmen.
We hope these suggestions will help in any
future plans for another
freshmen dinner.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Louise Balliet
President - Russell Hall

"Passing Through?"
by SCOTT CLAPPER
There seems to be the
beginnings of another
Passing Through production. There is one problem,
however, and that is
finding someone who
knows anything about it.
Checking with the proper
authorities one finds no
knowledge of any permission for the production.
Rumors are running rampant that students are
meeting secretly without
permission and working on
the new production. Checking such rumors, one finds
i t ' s rather difficult to
pin-point any evidence.
This reporter recently
checked out all the possible
secret meeting places. I
found no one working on a
production, while maybe a
few students were working
on productions, there
seemed to be no organization.
I checked Smith Hall
laundry room, a known
underground meeting place
of Passing Through people.
1 followed the rumors to
Sullivan basement finding
only the remains of what
seemed to be freshman
beannies. Inspired, I continued on, passing through
Russell Hall towards the
library, making a left at the
library. I heard faint
screams from Rogers Gym.
I quietly moved towards the
window. Someone was
inside. I happened to spot a
security guard on a ladder
at another window. "Sir," I
said, "could you tell me if
you've seen anyone Passing Through?" After assuring him that my I.D. was
valid and my beard real, he
let me in on my first real
lead.
"Someone's in there
turning lights on and off
without permission."
"Officer," I asked,
"could it possibly be the
Passing Through Production?" He seemed startled.
Checking his mini pocket
notebook under " P " , he
said he wasn't quite sure.

The atmosphere was relaxed and hip, accomodating everyone from bureaucrats to factory workers.
Peron estimates that
there were 6,000 regular

Last July 20, police stormed
the market and confiscated
a potpourri of marijuana,
hash, hash oil, acid, mushrooms, and a pile of

from a two hour ride to
Slippery Rock before the
game the next day, the
women's field hockey team
got up at 8:00 in the
morning, traveled five
hours to the University of
Delaware, played the game
then repeated the six hour
drive home - all in the
same day.
The athletic regulations
included in Title IX
requires all colleges and
universities to secure equal
opportunity for males and
females in their athletic
programs. This ruling
includes equal travel, allowances, provisions,
coaching, publicity, etc.
This subject and it's
implications at LHSC, was
the subject of a panel
discussion last Tuesday.
Ms. Sharon Taylor and her
panel of five LHS athletes
revealed some very startling facts concerning Lock
haven State's compliance
with Title IX's regulations.
Basically it was brought out
that LHS is in strict
violation of Title IX and the
people suffering from this
refusal of the law are the
women's athletics and
so-called "minor" men's
athletic teams.
Title IX, which was once
an unlimited paragraph in
one of the Education
Amendments, ironically
was brought to public
attention by the NCAA who
fought the ruling tooth and
nail from the start. Had it
kept it's mouth shut, the
small paragraph would
probably have been ignored. Fortunately for many
Austrailian Rangers

The Lock Haven State
Women's Basketball team
fell victim to the Dandenong Rangers of Australia,
Monday night, 70-46. The
Rangers, on tour, made it
three in a row by previously
defeating Edinboro State
and Slippery Rock.
The quicker, more aggressive Australian team
displayed some sharp
shooting ability, while the
Eagles were plagued by
numerous turnovers
throughout the game. The
Rangers were in full
command from the very
start, as indicated by its
32-18 halftime lead.
The game was the first
for the Eagles, who showed
some promising talent for
the remainder of the
season. Coach Keener used
all his 15 players and was
quite pleased with the
performance of the players.
High scorer for the
Rangers and the game was
Wendy Bird with 19 points.
Others in double figures
were LeAnne Gaze and
Robyn Gull with 12 and 10
points respectively. Leading scorer for the Eagles
was Kathy "Stretch" Landis with 12 points.
The next game for the
Eagles is the December
28th-29th, Kean State
Tournament in New Jersey.
The LHSC Alumni will
invade the Thomas Field
House. January 21st, for
the next home contest.

The regulation which
called for the immediate
self-evaluation of athletics
and education programs,
gave the colleges and
universities three years to
comply. The compliance
period ends July 21, 1978.
LHS has apparently
turned a deaf ear to the
Title IX ruling. With only
eight months remaining the
LHS athletic programs are
in gross violation of it's
requirements. The major
sports at the Haven, men's
football, basketball, and
wrestling, are receiving the
majority of the money
allotted to the athletic
programs, while the "minor" men's athletic teams
(soccer, tennis, cross-country, etc.) and the women's
teams get the leftovers.
For example, as the
women's basketball team
and tennis team share
sweat suits and uniforms,
the men's basketball team
refused to do the same with
the men's tennis team.
Thus, the men's tennis
team played without sweat
suits. While the field
hockey team stood on street
corners literally begging for
money to go to Nationals (at
one point, only needing
$1,000 more to go) the
men's football team spent
$1,000 on an overnight trip
to Slippery Rock. The
$1,000 used for that trip
could have supported either
the cross-country team or
the track team for an entire
season.
Presently, both men's
basketball and men's wrestling provide scholarships
to team members. Regardless of where this money
comes from, under Title IX
it is illegal for this scholar-

Department of Justice with
a referral that the case go to
court. Apparently the college administrators feel
they are immune to these
extreme actions.
Unfortunately this discrimination problem can not
only be attributed to the
Administration, the SCC,
and the Athletic Department. Coaches and players
of women's and minor
sports have taken a passive
role toward this injustice.
This passivity has done
nothing to solve t h e
problem.
This passive attitude
must be exchanged for an
active one. It's time for
coaches and players effected by this discrimination to
unite together and stand up
for their equal rights in
athletics provided by Title
IX.

Eagle Ice Hockey squad defeats Juniata and Pitt-Bradford
Coming off a costly 12-4
setback to the hands of
Bucknell. the Haven ice
hockey squad came back to
score impressive victories
over Juniata and Pitt-Bradford.
The loss to Bucknell was
the Haven's first of their
young season. It was costly
because they lost the
services of right winger Jeff
deCoen, who suffered a
dislocated shoulder very
early in the game.
On Saturday the Haven
met up with a very

The contest was back and

winning in a sudden-death

New SCC President, Executive Board, Sworn in
by JULIE BRENNAN
Managing Editor
Student Co-Operative
Council President Jayne
Bolduc ended her term of
office Wednesday night by
presiding over her final
Senate meeting. Bolduc
expressed her thanks to all
of the Senators for their
help and
cooperation
throughout her term of office.
Bolduc's final duty as
president was to perform
the ritual of swearing in the
new SCC Executive Board:
President—Joe Harper, 1st

Colin Weaver, Treasurer—
Diana Hummel. Recording
Secretary — Libby Grohe
and Corresponding Secretary—Sue Daum. After the
instalation procedure was
completed. Joe Harper,
new SCC President, chaired the remainder of the
Senate meeting.
Harper's first steps of
action as SCC President
were the appointments of
an SCC Parliamentarian
and various committee
chairpersons: LHS PreMed. student Robin Dick
was approved by the Senate
as SCC Pariamentarian;
Christopher Flynn was approved as Chairperson of
the Cultural Affairs Committee; Jack Sohnleitner

The Federal Government

of Conrails present financial state. As it stands now

State Government will pay

The only possible delay

the possibility of Conrail's

Beginning next semester, used books will be sold
in the bookstore.,
This,
policy could save 25 percent
of book costs for students.
The program will be in
cooperation with professors, who will attempt to
use the same books in Class
from semester to semester.
A list of books which will be
bought by the bookstore
will be issued before the
start of next semester, and
students can sell those
books to the bookstore,
provided they are in
reasonably good condition.
Books will be bought from
students at 50 percent of
their original value. Then
the bookstore will re-sell
them at 75 percent of thier
original price, 25 percent
more than the price at
which it acquired them.
Mr. Joseph Nagy, director
of the PUB, explained that
this is a national formula,
and the bookstore will be
making the same profit on
used books as it does on
new books. He said that
this profit is necessary for
the bookstore to operate.
Books constitute 60 percent
of all bookstore sales.
"We're in a tight position
on making money on
books," Nagy said.

program. "If it's not going

certainly discontinue it."
he said, "but I don't
visualize failure in it."
that a large sale of used
books, will hurt the
publishers, who set book
prices, and force them to
lower prices.
'ScouUng for Handicapped' Program begins
Thirteen Special Education Majors from the
college are participating in
a Scouting for the Handicapped program this year
in the Keystone Central
School District.
Tim Dorsey, Regional
Director for the Boy Scouts,
with the help of Prof. Lewis
Magent, has organized this
program to meet the needs
of the Special Education
pupils and to help supplement their education.
Troop meetings are held
once a week, for one hour,
during the childrens' regular school day. The Special
Education Majors, with the
help of the Scoutmaster,
the classroom teacher,
provide leadership for the
meeting.
The unit activities used
depend upon the individuals in the program.
Adjustments are made to
meet the needs of each
scout. Where possible,
regular scouting procedures are used. Units being
developed at this time are
communications, first aid,
physical fitness and community living.
' 'Those working with the
scouts must not expect too
much," Prof. Magent said,
"but the scouts should be
allowed to try things they
think they are able to do."
The program is divided
into three parts. Cub
Scouting at the Dickey
Elementary School, with
Jim Stabley in charge; a
mixed group of boys and
girls at the Lock Haven
Junior High Schoo, with
Jeane Long and Jeff Knarr
in charge; and an Explorer
Post program at the
LockHaven Senior High
School, with Jessie Genevish in charge.
"A three-day camping
experience is being planned for this Spring," Prof.
Magent said. He urged
anyone wishing to help to
contact him at Akeley 111.
New books will still be
sold, and Nagy described
used book sales as a "trial
plan," depending on the
cooperation of professors

A s the semester draws to a close, and w i t h it
m y career as a student of Lock H a v e n State College,
I look back upon m y year and a half here w i t h both
pleasure a n d bitterness. The t i m e has come to
move o n . But before I go, I'd like to share w i t h you
a few of t h e bitter lessons Lock H a v e n State College
has taught m e . Lessons which have helped to instill
in m e t h e need to go somewhere else. To start over,
hopefully forgetting much of what I've learned
here. Not the things that I've learned in the classrooms of U l m e r , Raub a n d Z i m m e r i i . But rather
that which was learned in the offices of the P U B ,
Sullivan H a l l , the Eagle W i n g and Bentley D i n i n g
Room.
I've learned t h e unique way t h e average Lock
H a v e n student has of coping. " N o matter how
fucked up things a r e , ignore i t . " This attitude will
get one far in life — if you plan a career as a rock.
I've learned no matter what is said, it falls on
the deaf ears of those who are in a position to make
change. N o matter how hard one tries to change
things, he or she is destined to fail unless that person doesn't have to study or go to classes to stay off
of academic probation.
I've learned that a person can give an entire
semester a n d a reasonable good chance for a 3 . 0 , to
try to get a job done for t h e S C C . But if he or she
does not kiss people's asses, the S C C President will
ask for a letter of resignation. I've learned from
others a n d for myself, that no matter how much
someone gives for the S C C , it's never enough.
The saddest, most bitter, most sickening
lesson I've learned here — the lesson Lock H a v e n
State College teaches best — is how to Q U I T , how
to G I V E U P , how to LOSE O N E ' S D E S I R E T O T R Y .
M a n y of you who know me must surely have
thought as you r e a d , " h e ' s no better than anyone
else. H e hasn't really done anything this semest e r . " Y o u ' r e d a m n right! A body can only take so
much bullshit, can only be kicked in the balls for so
long and recover. Perhaps many will disagree with
w h a t I say. For those who do, I cannot feel any res e n t m e n t , only pity.
Uninvolved student of Lock H a v e n State, I adm i r e you. I urge you to stay inside your shells, for
all that involvement in student government can
bring to someone outside the present power clique
is p a i n . T h e y will take all you can give and then
break your spirit.
I only hope that I can gain m y spirit back in
January w h e n I begin again at a new school, where
effort brings results. Lock H a v e n State College's
student government and administration are digging
themselves a lovely grave. In it, may they rest in
peace.

Letters to the Editor...
To the Editor:
Jack Sohnleitner's rambling commentary in the
Eagle Eye of December 6
makes,
among
other
things, some points on the
English Department and
English professors that
should not go unanswered.
While I fully sympathize
with one of his concerns make the curriculum more
challenging - I find his
grasp of realities of
academic life woefully
deficient. I will only deal
with points that concern the
English Department and
English professors.
1. "All are Survey Courses": Not True. Beyond
freshman English - Composition and Dimensions of
Literature - many survey
courses are offered. Survey
courses are the foundation
of the Department's program. They also serve as
the gateway to the major in
English. Let's look at the
record. Next spring we
offer a smorgasbord of
electives: Period Courses
(20th Century Afro American Literature); Single
Author or Single Book
Courses (Milton, Bible as
Literature, Studies in
Shakespeare); Genre Courses (Understanding Fiction,
Worid Drama 11); Thematic
or Special Topics Courses
(Contemporary British
Plays, Jewish American
Literature, Sports in Literature). In addition we offer
courses in Creative Writing, Film, Literary Criticism and Journalism. It is
true next semester we are
offering 20 sections of
Dimensions of Literature
but during this semester we
are offering only three
sections of this course.
2. "No Courses in depth":
Not True. Let's again look
at the record. Courses in
Milton, Shakespeare, The
bible as Literature and
Literary Criticism do focus
on depth rather than
breadth. In addition. "Independent Studies" are
available in the Department
to fill the gaps and to insure
some experience of intensive study of literature
before graduation.
3. "Journalism Media
Studies Major Hurts Other
U n d e r - G r a d u a t e Programs": Not True. I fail to
understand how the Journalism program with more
than one faculty member
offering courses could hurt
other under-graduate programs.
4. "It takes Years to
Change or Add New
Courses": Not True. During the current semester we
developed the following
new courses which are
scheduled for spring:
Sports in Literature, Mass
Media, Contemporary British Plays, Polish Literature
and Jewish American Literature. To schedule these
courses it took only 2-1/2
months from the point of
introduction to the point of
approval by the Management. To my mind, good
courses are products of
careful and thoughtful
planning rather than unseemly hurry. Quick decisions seem to be appropriate to brain or heart
surgeons, not thoughtful
professionals in higher
education. Our colleagues
in other departments and
the Management have
sometimes criticized us for
offering too many new
electives. It is refreshing to
read another point of view
from an English major.
But these clarifications
aside, I believe there is still
a great deal to be done with
the total English Major
Program. A Standing Committee in our Department is
at present addressing itself
to the task of planning our
courses for next year. The
committee and I welcome
suggestions from concerned students. Our doors are
always open to students
who have ideas or complaints to discuss with us.
James Y. Dayananda.
Chairman
Department of English and
Philosophy
COMMENTARY
We all expect the last four days of the semester to be
utter chaos and confusion. Well, the problems have already
started, thanks to the special class schedule made up by the
administration.
First of all, there are some students who have classes
that meet on either Monday, Wednesday, or Friday, while
they have another class on the other two days at the same
time period. Are they supposed to be at both places when it
comes time to take their final?
A similar problem could arise if two sections have an
exam in the same room. This may not be discovered until
the day of the exam.
Studying time is another problem. One student
complained, "I have history on Monday and Wednesday,
and my exam is on Thursday morning. When will I have
time to study?"
Still others may have three or more tests scheduled for
one day. This is ridiculous. These students should see an
administrator and demand that it be changed.
We feel that in order for students to have time to study
for exams, classes should be canceled on Monday, Tuesday,
and Wednesday. As for the other problems, the only
solution for now is to "grin and bear it," but in the future
something must be done.
One solution could be having someone other than the
administration to make up the schedule. They have no
contact with the classroom, so they shouldn't have the job.
A select group of professors and students would be more
efficient.
To the Editor:
Dear Editor and Students,
We student employees of
the cafeteria are very
concerned about the condition the cafeteria is left in
after meals. We would like
to place our complaints to
those of you who are
rational and mature adults
and also to those of you who
are not rational and mature
adults. Our complaints are
as follows:
1. Trays are left on the
tables which we student
employees must bus to the
dish carts.
2. Creating food masterpieces on the tables which
we student employees must
clean up, sometimes with a
scouring pad.
3. We realize that sometimes we are not the most
pleasant people, however,
this unpleasantness is
partly caused by the great
frustrations we feel trying
to figure out what food you
desire by pointing and
grunting at it. We are not
mind readers.
We employees feel that
many of these unfair
reactions are due to
students jumping on the
"Bitch at ARA" bandwagon. Perhaps you should
think of who has to pay the
consequences of these
reactions (hint: your fellow
students). WE recommend
that instead of using your
energies to create excessive
work for we student
employees, you channel
your energies in a more
constructive means.
Thank you for hearing our
side of the story.

To the Editor:
Dear Mr. Rhodes:
This letter is concerning
the Freshman Dinner held
on November 1, 1977. On
behalf of the members of
the Executive Board of the
Residence Hall Association, 1 would like to state
that we were disappointed
in the program, or lack of
program during the dinner.
It was to our understanding that the purpose of such
a dinner was for freshmen
to meet the different deans,
the members of hall
councils, counselors, and
other individuals associated
with the campus. The
freshmen would then have
some concept of who to turn
to with their individual
questions and/or problems.
Since none of this was
done, we saw no actual
benefit from the dinner.
We agree it is an
excellent idea and hope to
see it again next year, but
with a change in format. It
should be held in the
beginning of the seniester
when only the freshmen are
on campus. This allows for
use of the entire cafeteria.
Also, a specific program
should be held, with
introductions made to the
freshmen.
We hope these suggestions will help in any
future plans for another
freshmen dinner.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Louise Balliet
President - Russell Hall

EAGLEEYE
"Passing Through?"
by SCOTT CLAPPER
There seems to be the
beginnings of another
Passing Through production. There is one problem,
however, and that is
finding someone who
knows anything about it.
Checking with the proper
authorities one finds no
knowledge of any permission for the production.
Rumors are running rampant that students are
meeting secretly without
permission and working on
the new production. Checking such rumors, one finds
i t ' s rather difficult to
pin-point any evidence.
This reporter recently
checked out all the possible
secret meeting places. I
found no one working on a
production, while maybe a
few students were working
on productions, there
seemed to be no organization.
I checked Smith Hall
laundry room, a known
underground meeting place
of Passing Through people.
1 followed the rumors to
Sullivan basement finding
only the remains of what
seemed to be freshman
beannies. Inspired, I continued on, passing through
Russell Hall towards the
library, making a left at the
library. I heard faint
screams from Rogers Gym.
I quietly moved towards the
window. Someone was
inside. I happened to spot a
security guard on a ladder
at another window. "Sir," I
said, "could you tell me if
you've seen anyone Passing Through?" After assuring him that my I.D. was
valid and my beard real, he
let me in on my first real
lead.
"Someone's in there
turning lights on and off
without permission."
"Officer," I asked,
"could it possibly be the
Passing Through Production?" He seemed startled.
Checking his mini pocket
notebook under " P " , he
said he wasn't quite sure.
My lead seemed to be at a
dead end*
"Officer," I asked,
"could you check under

seemed really confused. Is

EAGLE EYE
LHS Discriminates in Atltletics
by TERRI CORNELIUS
Sports Editor
While the LHS Eagle
football team spent $1,000
to have a night to rest up
from a two hour ride to
Slippery Rock before the
game the next day, the
women's field hockey team
got up at 8:00 in the
morning, traveled five
hours to the University of
Delaware, played the game
then repeated the six hour
drive home - all in the
same day.
The athletic regulations
included in Title IX
requires all colleges and
universities to secure equal
opportunity for males and
females in their athletic
programs. This ruling
includes equal travel, allowances, provisions,
coaching, publicity, etc.
This subject and it's
implications at LHSC, was
the subject of a panel
discussion last Tuesday.
Ms. Sharon Taylor and her
panel of five LHS athletes
revealed some very startling facts concerning Lock
haven State's compliance
with Title IX's regulations.
Basically it was brought out
that LHS is in strict
violation of Title IX and the
people suffering from this
refusal of the law are the
women's athletics and
so-called "minor" men's
athletic teams.
Title IX, which was once
an unlimited paragraph in
one of the Education
Amendments, ironically
was brought to public
attention by the NCAA who
fought the ruling tooth and
nail from the start. Had it
kept it's mouth shut, the
small paragraph would
probably have been ignored. Fortunately for many
Austrailian Rangers
run over LHS, 70-46
The Lock Haven State
Women's Basketball team
fell victim to the Dandenong Rangers of Australia,
Monday night, 70-46. The
Rangers, on tour, made it
three in a row by previously
defeating Edinboro State
and Slippery Rock.
The quicker, more aggressive Australian team
displayed some sharp
shooting ability, while the
Eagles were plagued by
numerous turnovers
throughout the game. The
Rangers were in full
command from the very
start, as indicated by its
32-18 halftime lead.
The game was the first
for the Eagles, who showed
some promising talent for
the remainder of the
season. Coach Keener used
all his 15 players and was
quite pleased with the
performance of the players.
High scorer for the
Rangers and the game was
Wendy Bird with 19 points.
Others in double figures
were LeAnne Gaze and
Robyn Gull with 12 and 10
points respectively. Leading scorer for the Eagles
was Kathy "Stretch" Landis with 12 points.
The next game for the
Eagles is the December
28th-29th, Kean State
Tournament in New Jersey.
The LHSC Alumni will
invade the Thomas Field
House. January 21st, for
the next home contest.

The regulation which
called for the immediate
self-evaluation of athletics
and education programs,
gave the colleges and
universities three years to
comply. The compliance
period ends July 21, 1978.
LHS has apparently
turned a deaf ear to the
Title IX ruling. With only
eight months remaining the
LHS athletic programs are
in gross violation of it's
requirements. The major
sports at the Haven, men's
football, basketball, and
wrestling, are receiving the
majority of the money
allotted to the athletic
programs, while the "minor" men's athletic teams
(soccer, tennis, cross-country, etc.) and the women's
teams get the leftovers.
For example, as the
women's basketball team
and tennis team share
sweat suits and uniforms,
the men's basketball team
refused to do the same with
the men's tennis team.
Thus, the men's tennis
team played without sweat
suits. While the field
hockey team stood on street
corners literally begging for
money to go to Nationals (at
one point, only needing
$1,000 more to go) the
men's football team spent
$1,000 on an overnight trip
to Slippery Rock. The
$1,000 used for that trip
could have supported either
the cross-country team or
the track team for an entire
season.
Presently, both men's
basketball and men's wrestling provide scholarships
to team members. Regardless of where this money
comes from, under Title IX
it is illegal for this scholar-

Department of Justice with
a referral that the case go to
court. Apparently the college administrators feel
they are immune to these
extreme actions.
Unfortunately this discrimination problem can not
only be attributed to the
Administration, the SCC,
and the Athletic Department. Coaches and players
of women's and minor
sports have taken a passive
role toward this injustice.
This passivity has done
nothing to solve t h e
problem.
This passive attitude
must be exchanged for an
active one. It's time for
coaches and players effected by this discrimination to
unite together and stand up
for their equal rights in
athletics provided by Title
IX.

Eagle Ice Hockey squad defeats Juniata and Pitt-Bradford
Coming off a costly 12-4
setback to the hands of
Bucknell. the Haven ice
hockey squad came back to
score impressive victories
over Juniata and Pitt-Bradford.
The loss to Bucknell was
the Haven's first of their
young season. It was costly
because they lost the
services of right winger Jeff
deCoen, who suffered a
dislocated shoulder very
early in the game.
On Saturday the Haven
met up with a very
determined Juniata team.
The contest was back and
forth, with the Haven
winning in a sudden-death
period 6-5.

in his first game scored a

were by Jeff Norcini. Gary
