RHA budget cut creates controversy

When the Student Cooperative Council
(SCC) worked out the new budgets for
University clubs a few weeks ago, it cut all
Resident Assistant (RA) programming
money from the Residence Hall Association (RHA). This brought about an apf)eal
of the budget by the RHA and a debate at
Wednesday night's SCC meeting (see side
story).
The RHA budget was cut because of an
unwritten policy enacted by the Student
Appropriation's Committee (SAC) which
does not allow "activity fee money to be
used for the purchase of food for closed
functions," said Matt Masters, SCC Treas-

nated from the budgets.

SCC passes 1994-95 budget

The Student Cooperative Council (SCC)
voted 28-5 last night to pass its 1994-95
budget, despite conflict over the proposed
Residence Hall Association (RHA) budget.
Several RHA members were on hand at
the meeting to voice their views on this
every year the SCC needs to see what it can
spend, he said. Last year food was elimi-

subject.
"This cut will hurt something that has
been working fine," said Scott Helfirich, the
newly elected president of the RHA. He
was concerned the cut would hurt the programming and residents.
The controversy concerned the fact that
the RHA uses part of its budget money to

halls found that "well over half the RA's
programming money was being spent on

food, according to Masters.
All the RA money was originally cut in
the hopes that RHA would give the SCC an
explanation as to where all its money was
going, Masters said.
The SCC did not have to wait long for
this explanation. When the programming
money was cut, the RHA treasurer, an RA
appealed the cut, said Wendy Walsh, the
RHA advisor, who also appealed the cut.
RHA showed the SCC what has been
done with the programs, Walsh said. Over
18,000 people participated in RHA, RA,
and Hall Council supported programs in the
fall, she said.
After the budget cut was appealed, the
SCC returned half the money that had been
cut to the RHA. This past year, each RA

Police Beat Computer virus on the loose
Public Intoxication: April 24 - Officers observed an individual lying face
down on the ground in front of one of the
residence halls. The person was extremely intoxicated. An ambulance was
requested, and the person was taken to
Lock Haven Hospital for observation.
The person received a citation for public
intoxication.
Underage Drinking: April 23 - Law
enforcement was notified by the communications center that there was a person
sick in one of the bathrooms in a residence hall. Officers arrived and asked
for the person's name but got no response. An ambulance was dispatched,
and the person was taken to Lock Haven
Hospital. The person, who was not a student, was heavily intoxicated and received a citation for underage drinking.
Accident: April 23 - Law enforcement investigated an accident that occurred between North and McEntire
halls. A vehicle drifted down the roadway from McEntire Hall, across the
roadway leading to Gross Hall, and
struck a light pole. No one was in the
vehicle. No estimated damage was available.
Underage Drinking: April 23 - A
person was observed stumbling and staggering while being helped by two other
individuals. When stopped by law enforcement, the person spoke with slurred
speech. A citation for underage drinking
was
issued
to the individual.
Harassment by Communication:
AprU 21 - Law enforcement is currently
investigating a report of a harassing
phone call to a student in one of the residence halls. The person, who sounded
like an older male, stayed on the line for
approximately one minute and hung up.

Feeling a little sick when you've been in
the computer lab lately? You may have
caught a virus — on your disk, that is. A virus has recently run rampant in the University's computer labs.
The majority of the people using the
computer lab in Raub Hall have been affected by the virus, said Kevin Douglas, a
worker in the lab.
To make sure they don't become victims
of the virus, students should run the virus
scan when they insert their disks into the
computer. To do this, they need to click
on the virus scan A-drive icon in Microsoft
Word for Windows. Doing this will scan
the disk and let them know if a virus is
present. If a virus is found, they should

click on the symbol which allows them to
clear the virus from their disks.
A team of four people is cleaning thecomputer labs of the virus, said Joseph
King, who also works in the lab. All of the
computers have been cleared of the virus,
but it is still "floating around" on some peoples' disks, he said.
The virus is very random and may or may
not ruin the files on a disk. King said.
The PC Users Group will be holding a
meeting on Tuesday at 12:30 p.m. in one of
the classrooms in Akeley Hall, where information about the virus will be provided.
Students with questions about the meeting
or the virus may contact King at 893-3393.

grams be successful, she said. "It's an incentive," Walsh said as she pointed out that
food helps get people to attend the programs.
The SCC took away some of the RAs
"ability to program successfully," she said.
"The hall councils and the RAs work so
well together, and that $30 is just a part of
it," Walsh said.
The SAC Committee felt the RHA should
use its fund-raising budget to purchase food
for the programs. Masters said. The fundraising budget is separate from the budget
given by the SCC.
"1 don't think the same motivation, the
same fun, the same spirit will be there,"
Walsh said about the programs after the
budget cut.
The RAs can program without the food
and still be successful. Masters said. They
can have exactly the same programs and
use the fund-raising money to buy food for
the programs, he said.
RAs will still be required to have the
same number of programs a semester, according to Walsh.

received $30 per semester to use for programming. Following the appeal, the SCC
decided to give each RA $15 a semester for
programming during the 1994-95 fiscal
year.
The RHA, however, was not happy with
the $15 per semester for each RA. Members of the organization attempted to prevent the budget from being passed at the •
SCC meeting Wednesday night, but the new
budget was approved by a vote of 28 to 5.
A total of $1,560 was cut that the RHA
was concerned about, Walsh said. The
money was not only cut, but the RHA was
told how to spend it, she said.
Walsh had several arguments against the
cut. "RHA oversees a great deal of student
activities on campus," she said. These include Club Haven, Family Day and Spring
Week. "It's crazy that we're being considered a club," Walsh said. "We're not a
club. We're an activities board."
Walsh also felt food should not have been
an item. The SCC is against the RAs spending money on food that has helped their pro-

buy food for events and closed meetings.
Helfrich stressed that the organization
targets all students, even those who live
off-campus, and all are welcome to attend
RHA events and meetings.
Helfrich said he circulated a ^petition
asking students if they believed food purchased with budget money should be a
part of their programs. Over 550 people
signed the petition in favor of it.
He also said the incentive with food is
drawing a lot of people and is an "integral
part."
Senator Theresa Copenhaver addressed
the issue that many off-campus students
are not aware of events being held in the
residence halls. Helfrich said that although these events were not advertised
widely in the past, more is being done to
publicize them.
Cultural Affairs Committee Chairperson
Jen Pawlo said a majority of the clubs had
budget cut backs, and she hoped the RHA
didn't feel it was targeted at them. Voting
as an off-campus senator, she said she
felt a majority of the off-campus students
do not feel as if the RHA programs are
targeted towards them.
Wendy Walsh, advisor of the RHA, said
not every club's budget was cut. The University Players budget was raised, she
said.
While the University Players provides
cultural programs to the University, the
RHA does this and also brings educational
programs, said Walsh. Eighty-five percent of students live on campus at one
time during their college career, she said.
Recording Secretary Steph Kline said
she felt everyone was missing the point.
Clubs should not be allowed to buy food
for closed meetings with budgeted money,
she said. The RHA is not the "exception
to the rule," she added.
Senator Janel Clayton said since the
RHA is using more than half of the money
for food and programs not ofjen to everyone on campus, the budget should be
passed.
Dr. Linda Koch, vice president for student affairs, felt the SCC and the RHA
have a "common purpose" — to serve the
students of the University. A desire for
"common ground" and not the "animosity"
created in this room should be sought, she
said.
Koch wondered if there was a better
way to achieve what the two groups were
looking at. "The decision has to do with
making [the University] better," she said.
Professor Paula Bell, an advisor to the
SCC, said that everyone wanting "power,
glory and status" is a problem in both the
s e e and the campus. Students need to get
involved and communicate — the senators
should be expressing the views of the
RHA members in attendance, she said.
The meeting was also a time for "change.
This year's SCC officers said their farewells and thanked various people, and the
new executive board was sworn in.;
Jason Cristafaro, the new SCC president, stated his motto is that his door is
open to everyone on campus.

QPA limit debate
continues
(MILLERSVILLE) - For the second
Student Senate meeting in a row, senators
expressed their disapproval of allowing
departments to raise the QPA for the major.
"These proposals coming before us are
totally unprepared," said Senator Tom
Skelley, adding the proposals are vague.
"I'm not going to support it," he said.
Dr. Richard Clark, chair of the Academic Policies Committee, discussed the issues of admission and retention in the major and effects of permitting departments
to raise the QPA.
Clark told senators he has the same concerns they do. He said he thinks that students should not be barred from entering a
major because the QPA is too high. He
said students have graduated from Millersville University with a 2.0 in their major and have become productive citizens
in society.
"QPA isn't everything," Clark said.
"There is more to a person than a QPA."
If departments are allowed to raise the
QPA, Clark questions how professors will
handle students who need better grades to
remain in the major.
"Will instructors within the department
tend to pad the grades, so [students] can
maintain a 2.75?" he said,

Fee provides
outdoor activities
(INDIANA) - Many lUP students may
be getting exactly what they're paying for
in the line of their lUP tuition bill labeled
"activities fee."
One of those things included in the fee
is the Co-op Recreation Park. This 200acre plus area of land can be accessed by
lUP students with a validated l-Card 24
hours a day, seven days a week.
"First of all, we have the lodge buildings that organizations can reserve at no
charge for meetings, social gatherings, receptions, whatever," said Chuck Conrad,
director of campus recreation.
"Then we have the ski hut for smaller
groups. The lodge will hold up to approximately 200 guests, and for the winter, we
have it reserved for the skiing operation,
where anyone with an I-Card can go out
and ski (with a ski pass).
"In addition to that, we've got about two
miles of an exercise trail where there's 18
exercise stations laid out over a portion of
the trails."
The park is open "to anyone with an ICard," Conrad said. "We have a lot of faculty and staff who use the park, but it's
mainly for students with valid I-Cards."
Conrad also noted the university-owned
boats, including canoes, catamarans and
others, are available for student rental at
Yellow Creek State Park outside of Indiana. Transportation to and from the lodge
and Yellow Creek are provided free by the
Co-op.

If you would like to learn more about the
Democratic position and support the position in campaigns, then the College Democrats may be the club for you.
Although there is apathy toward people
voting, people should become involved in
elections, said Theresa Copenhaver, the
club's president.
"We are a democratic society," she said.
We believe in voting people into office, she
added.
Being a member of the club, one can be
informed and "see briefly what each person
stands for," when election time comes, she
said.
One can become "more politically active
and [better] understand what's going on in
the country" too, since the top complainers
often are those who aren't registered to

vote, said Lorie Rice, the club's treasurer.
This semester the group has hosted two
forums. The first dealt with the North
American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA),
and the most recent, health care. The club
tried to host events dealing with "hot topics"
to inform the student body, said Copenhaver.
This past year the group sponsored movies
such as "JFK" and "Patriot Games," said
Rice.
The group also holds fund-raisers and volunteers during election time with the local
Democratic party, helping with the campaign, said Copenhaver.
The club is trying to get involved in the
community, too, said Rice.
During this past year's elections, the group
held a petition drive in town for Lynn Yeakel and Harris Wolford, said Rice.
Sometimes members of the group travel to
political conventions. A few weeks ago.

some members traveled to Baltimore,
Md., to attend a regional convention
which featured photo opportunities with
President Clinton and a question and answer session with Vice President Al Gore,
said Copenhaver. A national convention
will be held in Washington, D.C. in June.
"Even if you don't want to be fully active, come and be informed," said Copenhaver. Voting is what the government is
built on, she added.
Many people feel apathetic, that their
vote doesn't count, so they don't vote, said
Copenhaver. It is even worse to vote
without having knowledge of the candidates and not being informed, she said.
New meeting times for next semester
are being determined.

Republican discusses "seductive" left
by Jen Baer
Eagle Eye News Editor_
Republican David Horowitz described
the radical, or leftist, vision of the world as
being "very seductive" in his speech "DeConstructing the Left, " which he gave in
the Parsons Union Building (PUB) Meeting
Room 2 on April 20.
"Human beings are funny in that they
have the capacity to believe almost anything," said Horowitz, who was once a radical Democratic speaker.
It is ridiculous to believe, as leftists do,
that America is a racist country, he said. If
this is trutf, why aren't black Americans
leaving the country to go to Africa, a country which is run by blacks, Horowitz questioned.
The speaker also pointed out that many
Haitians want to come to America. "It's
better here than it is in Haiti, which has
been run by blacks for 200 years," Horowitz said.
Also, millions of Mexicans illegally cross
the border to enjoy the privileges available
to those in this country, he said.
Minorities have more privileges and power in America than anywhere else in the
world, according to Horowitz.
Another point Horowitz made in his
sf>eech was that women are a majority in
America, and their status has changed dramatically in the last 30 or 40 years.
When the oral contraceptive was invented, it was inevitable that women would
move into the workplace, the Republican
said. Except for in a few fields, such as
construction, there has been no "huge resistance" to women moving into the workplace, he said.
It is a "phony statistic" that a woman
earns 70 cents to a man's dollar, Horowitz
said. If it were true, some employer would
fire all his male employees and hire women
to increase his profit, according to Horowitz. "It just doesn't hapfjen, 'cause it just
ain't so," he said.
"Of course women have power," Horowitz said as he reflected on a movie in
which two men fight over a woman.
Anyone who thinks women have been

looked upon as mere sex objects has never
seen a Katherine Hepburn movie, he said.
A third point made by the Republican in
his speech was that America is not a homophobic country. If this were the case, the
country would not be spending so much
money on AIDS, he said.
His remarks that America is not a racist,
sexist, or homophobic country did not
mean, however, that there are no racists in
America or that people in the country are
not discriminated against, Horowitz said.
We are not able to make people equal or
end poverty, and bigotry cannot be taken
out of peoples' minds, he said.
Today's universities, which treat all people as equal, are the last refuge of the "diehard left," according to the Republican.
"The problem with the radical agenda is
that it runs up against human nature," he
said.
Leftists believe "you can change the
world," and that is a dangerous thing, Horowitz said.
"Ideology can be very, very powerful," he
said. "Ideology can make you think up is
down, black is white."
"The agenda of the left is very destructive," according to Horowitz.

"[Where radicals have power] they get
into the business of thought control," Horowitz said. "If you don't agree with a radical, you're an immoral person — indecent."
The other side of a story is never heard
from a radical, he said. When a leftist is
asked how his or her plans will be implemented, a straight answer is never received,
said the Republican.
"In my view, leftism is a permanent temper tantrum," Horowitz said.
We need to try to "civilize ourselves"
through morality, religion and respect for
the law, he said.
"The Bill of Rights is not about the rights
people have to do things," Horowitz said.
Rather, it is about limits on the government
and what it cannot do to the American people, he said.
With the exception of slavery and segregation, "the American idea worked for 200
years," the Republican said. "In the last 30
years, we've seen a great erosion of America's framework."
Horowitz gave Affirmative Action as an
example of his belief in this. Affirmative
Action has created more racism and "eroded the basic principles of our country," he
said.

Opinion I Editorial

Are concerts an
activity of the past?
Shall we beat the Arrested Development issue
to death? Actually, let's not, but rather, let's
think about whether Lock Haven University
should ever attempt to sponsor a concert again.
The SCC blames student apathy as the cause
(see the letter to the editor located on this page).
The students blame the SCC for not bringing a
band they like. At this point, does it really
matter whose fault it was?
Two years ago the Bob Dylan concert brought
a performer from the opposite spectrum of
Arrested Development. The turn out wasn't that
great. Last year's attempt at a concert was a
montage of bands somewhere in between the
other two performers, but we never even got to
assess student interest because of a natural
disaster.
It basically comes down to the fact that no
matter who is brought to Lock Haven to play, it
will not satisfy everyone. And if a band is
chosen, will it satisfy enough people to get a
decent turn out? I think a spring concert at Lock
Haven University is a thing of the past and the
SCC should seriously consider if there will ever
be another. All the time, money and work that
goes into preparing for a concert does not seem
worth the number of people who show their
faces at them ~ whether it's due to student
apathy or the wrong band.

Apathy cancelled Arrested Development
Dear Editor,
For those students who eagerly
anticipated Arrested Development
performing at Lock Haven University, we apologize and sympathize
with you. A tremendous amount
of effort was put into making the
concert a success. Over 200 hours
of student time and effort dedicated toward making this concert a
reality was in vain. Any student
of this University would be hardpressed to say that they were not
aware of the event of the year.
When the decision was made to
cancel the concert, only a paltry
125 students our of nearly 3,500
had purchased tickets. This is not
only pathetic, but it is remarkable

that less than 5 percent of the student body purchased tickets to see
a major national headlining act. If
you have complained that your
University offers no events for the
students this is an indication as to
why. The Social Committee provided the University with tremendous bands, comedians, movies
and coffeehouse performers. These
events all went off well with one
problem, lack of attendance. Rarely have students left events feeling
cheated, only why didn't anyone
else attend. The planning and booking of perfomers is not an easy job,
but the Social Committee does extremely well with what is available.
Your fellow students are bringing

Column not funnyy furthers
To the Editor,
My letter is in response to Lori
Packer's column in the April 8 issue. I, too, am a graduate of Bishop Conwell High School, and was
GREATLY offended by her entire
article. In her attempt to be humorous, Lori presented a view of
Bishop Conwell that is inaccurate.
Most damning, however, was the
fact that her column served to further the untrue stereotypes of
Catholic education.
What Lori failed to comment on
in her article were the many positive things about Conwell that also
describe the school. The memories I hold of my alma mater are
not of big hair or stodgy old nuns,
but men and women who held our
best interests at heart. The teachers and administrators helped
many young women realize that
they could survive in this male
dominated world. Nuns like Sister
John Anne (her name is not entire-

ly "male") pushed students for a
reason. Sister Theresa Mary may
have had trouble remembering
things, however, that's what happens when you take a nun out of
retirement because more teachers
are needed and no lay-persons
want to teach at a low-paying
Catholic school.
In terms of sex education, I can't
remember a time during my four
years when I was told by a faculty member, "Don't do it."
Instead, they acknowledged the fact
that we were young women and
told us, "Be careful and protect
yourself."
We
were
never
preached to, but rather, reasoned
with.
It's a shame that Lori can't remember any of the good things
about the former Bishop Conwell
(now a co-ed school named Conwell-Egan Catholic).
When I
think of Conwell, I recall Spirit
Days, Father/Daughter Dances,

Kudos to Greek
Week participants
Dear Editor,
I would like to take a moment to
commend the Greeks of Lock
haven University for an outstanding Greek Week April 10-17. All
six fraternities and four sororities
represented the University with
dignity and class. For the second
straight year, there were no incidents or problems associated with
the week long events and socials.
The competition was spirited to
say the least, but that never overshadowed the Greek unity that the
400 plus participants displayed all
week. Certainly, apathy is not a
problem among the Greeks. The
crowd at Air Band was without a
doubt the largest student crowd of
any event this year on campus.
Karen Byers and Dan Taylor deserve special praise for organizing

the week's activities. Please congratulate both of them if you see
them around campus. The IFC,
Panhellenic Council and
AllGreek Council also deserve
praise and thanks for their organizational support and fiscal sponsorship.
Speaking of fiscal matters, the
final tally from the All-Greek
Council 1994 Dance Marathon is
not complete, but we are close.
All of the dancers, helpers, sponsors and T-shirt buyers we thank
you. The contribution to Cerebral Palsy will exceed $2,300 and
may go as high as $2,500

done!

Dear Editor:
1 noticed with amazement a
story in your paper headlined
"Free Beer!!"
Apparently the
city police (with cooperation of
Law Enforcement) are providing
free beer so students can get
drunk and police can learn to use
the breathalizer.
The University seems to be
sending mixed messages. Just
this semester they brought in a
speaker who advocated responsible drinking but now they are
sanctioning a venture where students are supposed to get drunk.
I'd like to know just where the
Office of Student Affairs stands
on this issue.
To students I would like to say
that if you want to spend a day in
June getting drunk, you should
probably buy your beer and stay
away from this bash. Free beer
isn't worth it: if you go td the
Day's Inn bash, you are going to
be known to every police officer
in the area and you are going to
contribute to their skill in being
able to catch you later.
No one at this University has
any thing to gain by cooperating
in this venture.

Comedians Red Johnny and the Round Guy will be appearing in Price Performance Center on Sunday, May 1 at 8
p.m.
Their hip-hop version of Abbott and Costello is a unique
blend of hard hitting humor and energy that keeps the audience
guessing so much they never have time to figure out who's on
first!
Students may have seen this outrageous duo on A&E's "Caroline's Comedy Hour" or MTV's "Half Hour Comedy Hour."
They have played integral parts in MTV's "Comikaze" and
Fox-TV's "Uptown Comedy Club" by starring in the pilot episodes of both shows.
Appearing at over 100 college campuses, they have performed across the U.S., Canada, Bermuda and the United Kingdom.
At every university they play, Red Johnny and the Round
Guy bring with them a keg of powerful humor that leaves the
audience drunk with laughter, but sober enough to drive.
Red Johnny and the Round Guy are appearing in place of Jon
Stewart, who is currently filming a movie and had to cancel his
act.
The performance is free to students with valid identification
and $5 for general admission (photo courtesy of the SCC Social
Committee).

Clinton plan support reaches new low
_^mm^m^

Conservative
Column
by
Mike
Pulsifer

On Wednesday, April 20, a USA TODAY/
CNN Gallup Poll showed that support for
President Clinton's health care plan hit a
new low at 43 percent. In addition, "63%
think there would be too much government."
How can this be? Administration officials
tell us that this plan is what the people want.
The answer is pretty simple. The truth about
the plan is finally getting out. This plan is
flawed in very big ways.
Some people may be wondering how I, a
college student, can truly understand the'
scope of this plan. In a few words, I am
reading this beast. 1 won't paraphrase a photocopied table that briefly describes the plan.
No way. The only way to truly get a grasp
on what may happen is to read the script, so
to speak. If for any reason you may dispute
what I say below, check the plan itself. It's
available over the INTERnet.
One of the worst provisions of this plan is
price controls. The board of directors of a

regional alliance negotiates with a group of
health care providers to set prices for services provided. This board of directors
consists of equal amounts of employers and
employees. Under this plan, the states have
the power to set state-wide prices.
When will these people learn that price
controls DO NOT work? The late Richard
Nixon tried them and they didn't work.
They didn't work, and they never .will work.
Another provision of the plan that is
flawed is the limits on graduates from medical school from specializing. According to
the plan, by law, no more than 45 percent
of all doctors may pursue specialization.
At least 55 f)ercent must stay with either
"family medicine, general internal medicine, general pediatrics, obstetrics [or] gynecology." In addition, if the bureaucrats
decide that minorities are "underrepresented" in a field, they may require that
minorities are brought into that field. 1 can
sum up that last sentence with just two
words: racial quotas.
My problem with all of this is that it takes
control of deciding who practices what and
where from the free market. Obviously,
they haven't heard of supply and demand.
Maybe they were too busy not inhaling in
college to notice.
One area that truly needs reform is legal
reform in the area of malpractice claims.
Currently, up to 40 percent of the bills paid
to doctors is allotted to pay for malpractice
insurance purchased by the doctor.
The Clintons are doing nothing to remedy

this. The only limits imposed are those on
the amounts attorneys may take from the
money recovered in the suits. The limit
would rest at 33 and one-third percent of
the recovered money.
Now, let's think about this. If the only
limits were placed on the attorney's fees, the
size of the claims may very well increase at
the encouragement of the attorneys to make
the law suit worth their time. It is the size
of the claims that need to be limited, not the
attorney's fees.
This health care plan would impose socialism on this nation. Everyone would be
required to be enrolled in a government
funded health care plan, cradle to grave.
Each individual "must enroll in an applicable health plan for the individual, and must
pay any premium required. No eligible individual shall be ejected from an applicable
health plan until the individual is enrolled
under another applicable health plan, or becomes eligible for medicare individual."
If someone does not want to be a ward of
the state, that person would still have no
choice. If a person decided to recieve medical care, and he/she were not enrolled in a
plan, he/she would be automatially enrolled
and would have to pay twice the fees for
the services rendered. That punishes otherwise noble people. By paying the doctor
directly instead of the alliance, some funding for the bureaucracy would be cut off.
Yes, 1 said bureaucracy. The Clintons
like to tell us that this will decrease the size
of government when all it really does is

transfer it to the state government, as well
as to a new segment of the Department of
Health and Human Services.
There was one word or its equivalent that
I looked hard to find, to no avail. That word
is deductible. All people enrolled in these
plans would just pay their premiums. There
would be no individual resf)onsibility to
take care of one's self. When someone
must pay at least a part of their medical expenses in the part of deductibles, they would
most certainly take better care of themselves. This would cut the number of visits
as well as the costs for those visits.
My column is getting long, so I will highlight one last element of the plan. If you go
outside your region, only emergency services and urgent care would be covered. No
joke.
I would like the authors of the plan as
well as any and all supporters to consider
two things. All support for this plan is
based on a percieved right to health care.
The Constitution provides for no such right.
Besides, how can it be a right if we would
be surrendering some of our freedoms?
One more thing; Mr. and Mrs. Clinton,
heed the words of Winston Churchill,."Socialism is the philosophy of failure, the creed
of ignorance, and the gospel of envy."
As I close for the year, I would like to
thank everyone for those humorous letters

young adults drinking and possibly even
driving. I admit that at first that will happen, but over time the newness will wear off
and the consumption of alcohol by young
adults will decrease. Many people whom I
have talked to about their drinking pattern
after they reached the legal drinking age
have admitted that, at first, they drank quite
a bit, but after about a year their consumption decreased significantly.
When 1 talked to people about changing
the current law, once again apathy sets in.
Most say nothing can be done and want to
switch to a different subject. In the 1920's
alcohol was outlawed and then became legal again. The main reason why the drinking age was increased from 18 to 21 was
because someone decided that 18-year-old
adults were not responsible enough.
Therefore, Congress was influenced to
basically blackmail the states into changing
their drinking age to 21 by stating that if the
states didn't adhere to that request the federal government would not give the states
any highway funds. So, of course, the
states complied.
If anyone truly wanted to change the
drinking age again all one would have to
do is organize all the college students to

vote, and pressure their elected representatives into voting for the change.
1 believe in the American system, and 1
believe that if you feel strongly enough
about an issue and are willing to devote time
into making a change, it can be done.

Softball team
closes in on first
place California
by Amy Coles
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_
She is not very big and does not appear to be a great offensive
threat. But she's quick and strong. Like the old saying goes,
looks can be deceiving.
On Saturday, Robin Kumpaitis fooled Clarion. The freshman
designated hitter smashed two home runs — one in each game
of the doubleheader — to help LHU sweep the Golden Eagles.
In fact, Kumpaitis' homer in game one was the only run of the
game, which was good enough to give the Eagles a victory.
En route to a 5-1 win in game two, Kumpaitis hit another home
run, making her the team leader in that category to date with
six.
While Kumpaitis provided f)owerful offense, pitcher Eileen
Morse dominated the Eagles defense. She pitched two outstanding games, striking out 20 — nine in the first game and 11 in
the second.
Morse continued to throw the ball well on Tuesday, as she
shut down PSAC-West rival California, 2-0, in the first game of
the doubleheader.
LHU's two hits in the game were home runs by sophomores
Tiff Amore and Amy Harris.
"We outplayed Cal (in game one)," said Head Coach Kim
Lindsey, "however, the score could have been much higher because we had runners in scoring position and didn't get them
home."
Although a sweep of California would have put the Eagles in
first place in the PSAC-West, Lindsey's team could not win the
second game of the day. The Vulcans beat LHU 7-2, despite a
good outing by sophomore hurler Jen Geary.
"I feel sorry for Jen," said Lindsey. "She pitched a nice game,
but it seems like anytime she pitches, we play poorly. It's been
that way across the board. It's unfortunate because she deserves
to win. She's 1-8 and she shouldn't be."
Saturday's two wins against Clarion and the Tuesday split with
California put the Eagles' conference record at 6-2 and in second
place behind California.
LHU will be trying to keep its postseason hopes alive on Saturday, as the Eagles travel to Slippery Rock to play their last
conference games of the season. The teams final two regular
season games will be played at home on Wednesday against
Millersville.

Twelve qualify for conference championships...

Nktionally ranked DeVallance grabs the spotlight
Aaron Russell
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_
Each of the past few years Head Track
Coach Mark Elliston has had one athlete
who has stood apart from the rest. Although others possessed an equal amount
of talent, each year one has reached an elite
level within the conference, as well as in
Division II.
Two years ago, it was Patti Smoker in the
high jump. She was the best jumper in the
conference for much of her three year career and earned All-American honors by
placing second at Division 11 Indoor Nationals.
Last year the torch was handed to Smoker's roommate, Tracy Trapp.
Trapp
earned All-American honors during the
triple jump at the Indoor Nationals, and remained within a class of her own during

Outdoor Track
the outdoor season.
At the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Championships last May, Trapp
helped the team to a strong third place finish, one of the team's best showings in
school history.
Perhaps the most compelling story of the
meet was that Trapp scored nearly half of
Lock Haven's points by winning the heptathlon and long jump, as well as placing
in four other events. Her efforts earned
her Outstanding Field Athlete honors for
the meet.
Trapp has since graduated as well, but
remains involved in the Lock Haven track
program as Elliston's assistant coach. It
hasn't taken him long to find someone
whose talent can take his track program to

new heights, however.
Freshman Jason DeVallance came to the
University as one of the top high school
javelin throwers in the nation. It didn't
take him long to establish himself within
the college ranks, as his determination and
hard work have already lifted him to the top
of the college ranks. DeVallance is ranked
third in the most recent national seeding
chart, and is only five and a half feet shy of
second place.
Elliston believes that DeVallance stands a
good chance of winning the conference
meet if all goes well. "If he remains injuryfree, he stands a good chance of going to
nationals, as well as earning All-American
status," Elliston said.
Elliston feels that a few of his other athletes are also capable of qualifying for the
national meet which will be held on May
26 in Raleigh, North Carolina. Among
those are senior Travis Faulkner in the

10,000-meters, junior Tina Gilbert in the
sprints and sophomore Natalie Jackson in
the triple jump.
Both teams have two more meets remaining to qualify for the upcoming conference
championships. Members who have already met the standard are: Gilbert (100m,
200m), Tiffany Thomas (100m), Melanie
Helm (400m, long jump). Amy Yarger
(800m), Brenda Trimble (3000m), Jackson
(long jump, triple jump, heptathlon), Scott
Susten
(1500m), Faulkner (10,000m,
5000m), Glen Allison (high jump, pole
Vault), Kyle Waite (shot put), Jason DeVallance (javelin) and John Martin (decathlon).
Some team members will be competing
on Friday at the Penn Relays and will meet
up with the rest of the team at the Millersville Invitational on Saturday.

Eagles remain in second place...

Haven catches playoff fever as stretch drive begins
by Clint Often
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter
The baseball team at Lock Haven University has come down with a serious ailment
in the past few weeks, but they aren't about
to lose it nor do they want to.
The condition is called playoff fever.
For the first time in several years, the
Bald Eagles are in contention for a playoff
spot, which is as exciting to the playoffs as
much as it is to the fans.
The Birds began their quest for a spot in
next month's playoffs with six games this
week, starting with a showdown at firstplace and nationally-ranked Edinboro.
The Eagles were plagued by five errors in
the doubleheader, and that, coupled with a
combined total of only twelve hits spelled
doom for the birds, who played tough
against the Fighting Scots, but fell short in
both games, 7-2 and 7-3.
The next day saw the Eagles return home
to face Kutztown in a non-conference
matchup.
The Eagles managed a split in the pair of
games, which closes their non-conference
record at 5-10.
While this record isn't the greatest, these
games were played mainly at the beginning
of the.season and prepared the team well
for the conference schedule, in which the
team has excelled.
Evidence of this came in Wednesday's
twinbiJl against Slippery Rock, which the
Eagles split, losing 4-0 before beating the
Rockets 2-1.
Troy Winslow earned his first win of the
year in the Eagles' victory.
This puts the Eagles in second place in
the PSAC Western division standings with
a 9-7 mark.
California, who was tied with the Eagles
before yesterday's action at 8-6, played at
Clarion, and results were unavailable at
press time.
Several players for the Eagles are current-

Baseball
ly among the conference's leaders in several catagories.
Sophomore pitcher Karl Raffin is currently eighth in the conference in earned run
average with a 3.24 mark.Raffin is also
fourth in the PSAC with an average of 9.7
strikeouts per nine innings.
Sophomore hurler Jeff Book is tied for
third in the conference with two saves.
The Eagles will continue their quest for
the playoffs with a home double-header
against Clarion on Saturday at Mill Hall
Community Park.

Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_
Next year when somebody picks up the
lacrosse media guide and turns to the
records section, their eyes will be filled
with Deidre Kipp's name.
The Eagles senior personally rewrote the
LHU record books last Saturday in a 25-8
thumping of Philadelphia Textile.
Kipp scored 10 goals in the game giving
her 113 for her career to set the all-time
record for goals in a career which was previously held by Sue Cornish from 19831986.
That was not the only record to fall during Saturday' s game, as Kipp proceeded to
shatter four other records during the contest.
Kip'p set the record for goals in a season
with 58, goals in a game with 10, assists in
a season with 19, and assists in a career with
26. She did this all with two games still remaining on the schedule.
"I never exjjected this," said Kipp. "I
didn't even expect to come close to breaking the record." The record she is referring
to is goals in a career. Prior to this season
she scored a total of 55 goals.
This season she went out and score more
goals than her other three seasons combined, with 67 this season.
Kipp's record , breaking performance
wasn't the only story in this game, as goals
seemed to fly into the Textile net as quickly
as they could take them out. Jen Uter
scored a season high five goals and Christa
Falls put home four in the victory.
The Eagle defense also played an outstanding game as well. The defense, led by
Senior Christine Curcio, held Textile to only
14 shots on goal the entire game, with goalie Robin Martin stopping eight.
Kipp currently is leading the entire Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference in goals,
assists and points, and she is one of the
leading candidates for Conference Player of
the Year.
"I think my chances are good for recieving
the award, except for our record, " stated
Kipp. "Our record doesn't say it, but we had
a pretty respectable season. 1 hope they see
that."

LHU then closed out the season with a
home game against West Chester on Tuesday. West Chester entered the game in
After Saturday's victory against Textile, first place in the PSAC standings.
Lock Haven battled the Rams all the way
the Eagles hosted East Stroudsburg on
Monday. LHU f)oured it on in the end scor- tallying five goals in the last 1:41 of play,
ing three goals in the last 1:59 of the game but it wasn't enough as West Chester held
to hold on for their first conference victory on to the lead and won 18-14.
Kipp again was the story in this game as
of the season by a 15-11 score.
Kipp again paced the Eagle offensive at- she closed out her illustrious career by scortack by scoring four goals and chipping in ing five goals and assisting in one.
She ended her career by breaking two
with three assists. Liz Heit, who is ranked
11 th in PSAC in scoring, added three goals other records: points in a career, with 152,
and points in a season, with 90.
to the LHU effort.
Falls saved her best for last as she
Anne Whitlock, Curcio, and Michelle
Burt all scored two goals apiece in the vic- checked in with a four goal performance.
Also adding to the Eagle's cause were
tory for the Haven.
Robin Martin played an outstanding game Whitlock, Burt, Sharon Kreider, Uter and
in goal allowing only 11 goals and helping Julie Patterson all with one goal apiece.
Lock Haven finished the season with a 5to preserve the victory.
8 record overall and 1-4 in conference play.
