Trustees discuss
grade standards
A raising of the academic
standard at Lock Haven
State College and the
development of a new
degree program in International Studies were two of
the major items presented
to the college's Board of
Trustees at the January 20
meeting.
In his report to the board.
Dr. John L. Zaharis,
academic vice president,
explained a new probationdismissal policy which will
go into effect at the end of
the 1977 fall semester.
Students will be required to
maintain pre-established
minimum grade averages
in order to remain in
school.
A freshman, for example, must earn at least a 1.5
average out of a possible
4.0 during the
first
semester. By the end of the
sophomore year, the student must have at least a
2.0 average or be placed on
probation for a semester. If
the grade average is not
then brought up to minimum required, the student
will be suspended from the
college for two semesters.
Dr. Zaharis has also
recommended to the Academic Regulations Committee that minimum standards for Honors Recognition at graduation (cam
laude, magna com laade,
and samma cum laude) be
raised to reflect more
accurately the academic
achievement of students
who are truly outstanding.
At present. Lock Haven
State's Honors Recognitions standards rank among
the lowest in the state
college system.
In requirements for
Dean's List honors, however. Lock Haven's standards rank in the middle
among all state colleges.
A new degree program in
International Studies has
been approved by the
college's president, Francis
N. Hamblin, and is being
submitted to the State
Department of Education
for final approval. This
program is designed to
meet the Department of
Education's mandate that
Lock Haven State should
serve as a center for
international studies and
should "strengthen its
Liberal Arts program by
developing in International
and Cultural Education.
According to Dr. Zaharis,
the program wi" be a
demanding one which will
attract students of high
academic achievement
interested in a career with
the State Department or in
international trade and
finance.
Dr. Zaharis also noted
that the college's request
for authority to offer
graduate level courses has
been submitted to thp
Board of State College and
University Directors. If
approved by the SCUD
board at its March meeting
and then by the Department of Education, the
college expects to be able to
begin offering graduate
courses in support of this
by the summer of 1978.
The certification program
for athletic coaches has
been approved and six
courses in support of this
program will be offered
during the
upcoming
summer sessions, said Dr.
Zaharis.
In other business. President Hamblin reported to
the board that graduation
ceremonies in May will be
held outside in Jack
Stadium instead of in the
field house and at 10:30 am
instead of 1:30 pm as in
past years. He noted,
however, that the field
house will still be set up for
the ceremonies in case of
inclement weather.
Approval was given by
the board for the hiring of
two new faculty members.
Dr. Arunkant R. Patel as a
professor of mathematics
and computer science and
Dr. Richard McCarty as the
director of institutional
research.

Deep freeze won't suspend classes
By PHIL BURLINGAME
Managing Editor
Lock Haven State is in no
immediate danger of being
shut down because of the
statewide energy crisis
resulting from a shortage of
natural gas, according to
LHS President Francis
Hamblin. However, thermostats in all college buildings
will be lowered to 60 or 62
degrees because of a
directive being sent to all
state facilities by Governor
Milton Shapp.
Director of Maintenance
Don Stevenson said yesterday that Governor Shapp's
edict will be carried out
sometime today. Stevenson
advises all students and
college personnel who work
or live on campus to dress
warmly.
All public and private
schools in Pennsylvania,
not including resident
facilities or colleges and
universities, are closed
until Monday by order of
the Governor.
Harold Hacker, instructor of many of the physical
education swimming
classes isn't sure what
effect the heat reduction
will have on classes held in
Zimmerii pool. Hacker
noted that the heat in the
building has previously
been turned down to 60
degrees, and classes were
uninterrupted because the
pool area stayed warm.
Hamblin remarked that
no advantage would ^'°
gained from closing classes
because three fourths of all
LHS students live on
campus. Hamblin further
noted that all weather
reports indicate increasingly colder weather, but
classes will probably not be
suspended even if conditions continue.
The last time classes
were suspended was six
years ago when a winter
storm left a foot of snow
and
hindered
travel,
Hamblin said.

today's
editorial
In 1974 the State College and University
Directors, the State College Presidents and the
Pennsyivania Department of Education stipulated
that the primary mission of Lock Haven State
should be towards creating a program of
international education. Beginning in 1973 with
three foreign students, we now have a program that
allows us to host 44 foriegn students and send 40 of
our own students abroad. This indeed gives us a
privileged rank in the state college system of
Pennsylvania.
Thanks to the work of Dr. Marcus Konick,
Director of Academic Services and International
Education, our college environment has been
enriched by students representing* a variety of
cultures. In addition, many of our own classmates
have had the opportunity to visit and study
countries that they might otherwise have never
seen.
We hope that students wiil take full advantage
of this expanding program of International
Education by meeting and talking with the foreign
students on campus and by exploring the
possibilities of overseas study for themselves.
Commentary:sec price hikes—unavoidable
The price of every book in the campus bookstore has
risen at least one dollar since last semester. A book entitled
'Motivation' which is used for a psychology course, received
an increase of $4.45.
This brings to mind the questions, 'Why have the
prices gone up,' and what is the money being used for?'
Refusing to be iniluenced any longer by those frequent
whispers concerning a 'corrupt SCC who's pocketing my
money,' I decided to see if the facts regrading the issue
could be obtained.
I approached Mr. Joseph Nagy, Director of the Student
Union, and presented him with a list of student's most
frequently asked questions regarding the price increase.
Instead of avoiding the issue, as I would expect him to do if
he was trying to conceal something, Nagy presented me
Letter to the Editor
To the Editor:
Dear Editor,
I find it paradoxical that
the Women's Resource
Organization (which Susan
Eschbach, in her letter of
January 24, describes as
"...more than a provider of
information on clinics,
contraceptives, V.D., and
gay lifestyles.") should be
"investigating complaints
brought by female students
about alleged violations of
ethical standards by faculty
members." (Eagle Eye,
"WRO/SCC Uunch Ethics
Probe," January 24, 1977)
What is parado.xical is that
one finds this investigation
being spearheaded by an
organization which promotes aberrant and irresponsible ethical behavior
among students and faculty. Of course, I support the
end which the WRO is
aiming to achieve here.
Indeed I would hope that
the investigation would
consider examining the role
which the WRO plays in
encouraging the very type
of behavior which it finds
scandalous.
Sincerely,
Peter A. Redpath
with a list of facts, figures, and in my opinion, very valid
reasons for the price increase. I would like to relate these
facts and reasons to you to alleviate any confusion and
answer some of your questions concerning the higher
prices.
It is important that you first realize the manner in which
the bookstore aquires books. The professor teaching a
course advises the bookstore ofthe book(s) he'll be using for
the course. The bookstore then orders the specified book«
from the publisher which carries it. The publisher suggests
the price at which a book be sold. The student store buys
the book from the publisher at the suggested retail price,
however they receive a 15 to 20 percent discount. Thus, the
bookstore pays $8 for the book that you buy at $io (the
suggested retail price.)
This brings us back to the aforementioned question,
'where is my two dollars?' According to Nagy your $2 goes
toward many expenses that the bookstore must meet. The
store employs three clerks and a bookkeeper who must be
paid. Retirement benefits must be kept in mind. Insurance, '
postage, supplies, taxes and telephone bills must be
considered. In addition to the expenses within the store,
freight charges must be paid for the shipment of books.
Increasing prices must be traced futher than the
bookstore. The SCC can not be blamed for inflation. It too, is
a victim of rising costs and the vicious cycle.
-Susan Shelly
— The great joy in having your own column (aside from
gaining prestige on campus and becoming fascinatingly
attractive to countless scores of women) is that you can write
about almosi anything you wish. I have chosen to dedicate
my first column to the new student at Lock Haven State College; the Janii:iry transfer or possibly the second seniester
freshman who hasn't quite gotten it together yet. This
column is designed to act as a guide to those students who
feel as though they are on the outside of "college life"
looking in. This column will greatly help students who
observe only the obvious and don't yet know the ful! story
behind many seemingly innocent conditions, people and
things. This guide of mine will also show you what to look
out for and if you follow closely you may avoid considerable
heartache and embarrassment.
FRAT PARTIES
The secret of frat parties, if you're the kind of girl who
doesn't go in for the twenty minute meaningful relationship,
is to avoid going upstairs at all costs. Rumor has it that at
many of the fraternity houses, quite a few more girls have
gone upstairs than ever came down. Of course things can
happen on the ground floor and in the basement as well, but
these occurrences are rare. Nevertheless, do not hesitate to
latch the bathroom door upon entering. One never knows
what kind of ravenous beast may be lurking outside.
Many people ask, "What's the best frat party?" The
answer pretty much depends on individual taste. However,
Mi a private survey ! reiently conducted, one fraternity was
mentioned more often than any other as being the best place
to party. It's a place for those who enjoy spilling beer on
people as much as they enjoy having it spilled back on them.
It's none other than the fabulous Sigma Pi house. Sigma Pi
parties, acclaimed by a majority of Lock lia.en State
partiers to be the frat party in town, have pretty much
cornered the Friday night market for drunken debauchery
and other assorted glazed states.
LEBINITES
Somewhere along the way you may hear of a certain
English professor at LHS who is said to have a Manson-like
control over his followers. His followers, mostly LHS
students, will supposedly do anything for their leader, once
ne has put them (with the help of a rare Oriental drug) into a
zon.bie-like trance. For insiance, it is said that this English
professor sends his helpless and morally unresponsible
disciples out on nightly missions of murder. This simply is
'^ot true however. He never sends them out more than two
or three nights a week,
My advice is never to look at this man If he so much as
catches your eye, you might become hopelessly ensnarled
by his hypnotic stare and like a fly in a spider's web, you will
struggle in vain to break free from his hold. Several people
have expressed concern that I myself have become a
Lebinite. I am happy to say that through the use of special
red-Iensed glasses which deflect the hypnotic power in his
eyes, I have managed to elude his evil slavery.
SMITH HALL
The secret of Smith Hall must finally be brought out
into the open. For years the dark secret of Smith Hall has
been successfully concealed. Now, in this column, the
truth will at last be dragged out from the dungeons of
secrecy and be presented for all to see. Smith Hall is not a
d.jimitory at all. It is in fact, a well camouflaged, high
security prison for the criminally insane. The people you
see coming in and out ofthe dormitory all day are being paid
by the government to act like students and thus preserve the
secret. For obvious reasons the inmates are not allowed to
answer the phones. This explains why almost every time
you call there, the phone is picked up and immediately put
back on the hook. The guards usually get there first. Occasionally an inmate will outrace the guard to the phone and
emit a series of short, animalistic grunts before the phone is
forced back down on the hook. Definitely avoid going to
Smith Hall if it's humanly possible.
LOW ACADEMIC STANDARDS
1 think far too much has been made about the poor
quality of students here at LHS. There is absolutely no truth
to the rumor that the reason many Lock Haven State
students wear platform shoes is to keep their knuckles from
dragging on the ground. However, looking around at some
ofthe students here, one almost has to wonder just who the
college rejected.
The administration is acutely aware of the situation
though, and beginning in the spring of 1978, a new
academic probation-dismissal policy will go into effect. The
gist of this new policy wil! be that if you don't have at least a
2.0 cumulative grade point average you will get a kind of two
semester vacation. It will be like a reward for those highly
skilled students who successfully manage, against all odds,
to keep their average below the 2.0 mark.
The school will cut freshmen a break however.
Freshmen will only need a 1.5 their first semester and will
be given to the end of their sophomore year to bring their
average up to a 2.0. The administration's reasoning for
allowing freshmen a little slack is valid. Recently pried out
of the family womb, these students need time to adjust to a
new way of life. Many of them \yill have to learn how to
dress themselves, how to tie their own shoelaces (unless
they brought their shoes with the snaps from home) and how
to drink three beers without relinquishing the captive
liquids and semi-solids from their stomachs and
redepositing them all over someone's brand new rug.
So you see. the administration Is making an effort to
restore dignity to the name of Lock Haven State College.
Who knows? Perhaps in two or three years when an LHS
student is asked where it is that he or she goes to school, the
newly proud Lock Haven student won't have to look at the
ground and mumble incoherently.

Commentary:Referees crucial in Bald Eagle loss

Clarion
(16-0) defeated our basketball team 66-56 at Clarion,
on Wednesday night. The
Golden Eagles took a 30-27
halftime lead after we were
unable to protect an early
19-14 lead with 7:32 left in
the half. The game
see-sawed between the two
squads before a large,
enthusiastic Clarion crowd.
With 2:23 remaining.
Clarion took the lead to stay
28-27 and entered the
A>ckeroom with the three
point lead when a backcourt
foul gave Clarion a 1-1
which they converted into
two points.
In the second half, the
referees lost control of the
game early and started
calling technicals as a sort
of entertainment for the
partisan Clarion crowd.
Four technicals were
called, one against the
assistant
coach, Ray
Bedall, and Tom Huff. The
one against the coach was a
double technical and the
refs credited the two point
Clarion gift to a noisy bench
and Coach Black's raised
arms at the time.
Bedall, after
being
hounded, held and pushed
around by a Golden
Eagle threw the ball at his
feet and was immediately
reprimanded. Huff, after
being called for a foul,
tossed the basketball into
the air a few feet and was
penalized for tampering
with a UFO. All of the
technical fouls were converted as well as Clarion
receiving the ball out of
bounds each time after the
shots.
At 16:06 in the second
half, our cagers fied it up
36-36. At the 11:37 mark a

Anyone who has watched CBS in the last few days knows
that it is time once again for America's resident daredevil,
Evel Knievel, to attempt; Grim Reaper. This time Knievel
plans to jump a salt lake full of killer sharks but only after a
few less renowned daredevils break a couple of bones to
prepare the nationwide audience for Jaws II.
American heroes and death defying acts weren't
introduced by Evel. Americans always took people like
Houdini and Lindburg to heart. Evel was no exception. In
his younger days, Evel would barnstorm around the
country, jumping any car, bus, or truck that could be lined
up and put in his path. He performed most of these feats
protected only by a Sportster cycle engine and two rubber
tires.
His life wasn't easy. He has seen the inside of more
hospitals, broken more bones, and been in traction more
times than anyone cares to count. Videotape reruns of
Evel's crashes makes one wonder what makes him crawl
back on the seat of the cycle and jump again.
One doesn't have to wonder long. Knievel's Snake River
Canyon jump was one of the longest and sweetest cons in
sports. He set himself up as legitimate by logging hospital
time doing real daredevil stunts. He was an American folk
hero. Sensing the time was right. he announced that he
would jump Snake River Canyon on a motorcycle, a feat
never attempted by anyone before. In the con game, this is
known as the hook. The media hype was overwhelming, but
a few details were kept from the public. For instance, it was
never really known that the "Skycycle" that Evel used lo
jump the canyon was registered with the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) as a manned rocket. AKso the two test
cycles that Evel claimed were dismal failures were in reality
planned misses. When Evel took oft' on that fateful day and
his chute opened long before he reached the other side, the
con was complete and the payday was big.
Next week Evel will prepare to die in a lake full of sharks.
Ask any con man; if the scam works, milk it dry.

Trustees discuss
grade standards
A raising of the academic
standard at Lock Haven
State College and the
development of a new
degree program in International Studies were two of
the major items presented
to the college's Board of
Trustees at the January 20
meeting.
In his report to the board.
Dr. John L. Zaharis,
academic vice president,
explained a new probationdismissal policy which will
go into effect at the end of
the 1977 fall semester.
Students will be required to
maintain pre-established
minimum grade averages
in order to remain in
school.
A freshman, for example, must earn at least a 1.5
average out of a possible
4.0 during the
first
semester. By the end of the
sophomore year, the student must have at least a
2.0 average or be placed on
probation for a semester. If
the grade average is not
then brought up to minimum required, the student
will be suspended from the
college for two semesters.
Dr. Zaharis has also
recommended to the Academic Regulations Committee that minimum standards for Honors Recognition at graduation (cam
laude, magna com laade,
and samma cum laude) be
raised to reflect more
accurately the academic
achievement of students
who are truly outstanding.
At present. Lock Haven
State's Honors Recognitions standards rank among
the lowest in the state
college system.
In requirements for
Dean's List honors, however. Lock Haven's standards rank in the middle
among all state colleges.
A new degree program in
International Studies has
been approved by the
college's president, Francis
N. Hamblin, and is being
submitted to the State
Department of Education
for final approval. This
program is designed to
meet the Department of
Education's mandate that
Lock Haven State should
serve as a center for
international studies and
should "strengthen its
Liberal Arts program by
developing in International
and Cultural Education.
According to Dr. Zaharis,
the program wi" be a
demanding one which will
attract students of high
academic achievement
interested in a career with
the State Department or in
international trade and
finance.
Dr. Zaharis also noted
that the college's request
for authority to offer
graduate level courses has
been submitted to thp
Board of State College and
University Directors. If
approved by the SCUD
board at its March meeting
and then by the Department of Education, the
college expects to be able to
begin offering graduate
courses in support of this
by the summer of 1978.
The certification program
for athletic coaches has
been approved and six
courses in support of this
program will be offered
during the
upcoming
summer sessions, said Dr.
Zaharis.
In other business. President Hamblin reported to
the board that graduation
ceremonies in May will be
held outside in Jack
Stadium instead of in the
field house and at 10:30 am
instead of 1:30 pm as in
past years. He noted,
however, that the field
house will still be set up for
the ceremonies in case of
inclement weather.
Approval was given by
the board for the hiring of
two new faculty members.
Dr. Arunkant R. Patel as a
professor of mathematics
and computer science and
Dr. Richard McCarty as the
director of institutional
research.

Deep freeze won't suspend classes
By PHIL BURLINGAME
Managing Editor
Lock Haven State is in no
immediate danger of being
shut down because of the
statewide energy crisis
resulting from a shortage of
natural gas, according to
LHS President Francis
Hamblin. However, thermostats in all college buildings
will be lowered to 60 or 62
degrees because of a
directive being sent to all
state facilities by Governor
Milton Shapp.
Director of Maintenance
Don Stevenson said yesterday that Governor Shapp's
edict will be carried out
sometime today. Stevenson
advises all students and
college personnel who work
or live on campus to dress
warmly.
All public and private
schools in Pennsylvania,
not including resident
facilities or colleges and
universities, are closed
until Monday by order of
the Governor.
Harold Hacker, instructor of many of the physical
education swimming
classes isn't sure what
effect the heat reduction
will have on classes held in
Zimmerii pool. Hacker
noted that the heat in the
building has previously
been turned down to 60
degrees, and classes were
uninterrupted because the
pool area stayed warm.
Hamblin remarked that
no advantage would ^'°
gained from closing classes
because three fourths of all
LHS students live on
campus. Hamblin further
noted that all weather
reports indicate increasingly colder weather, but
classes will probably not be
suspended even if conditions continue.
The last time classes
were suspended was six
years ago when a winter
storm left a foot of snow
and
hindered
travel,
Hamblin said.

today's
editorial
In 1974 the State College and University
Directors, the State College Presidents and the
Pennsyivania Department of Education stipulated
that the primary mission of Lock Haven State
should be towards creating a program of
international education. Beginning in 1973 with
three foreign students, we now have a program that
allows us to host 44 foriegn students and send 40 of
our own students abroad. This indeed gives us a
privileged rank in the state college system of
Pennsylvania.
Thanks to the work of Dr. Marcus Konick,
Director of Academic Services and International
Education, our college environment has been
enriched by students representing* a variety of
cultures. In addition, many of our own classmates
have had the opportunity to visit and study
countries that they might otherwise have never
seen.
We hope that students wiil take full advantage
of this expanding program of International
Education by meeting and talking with the foreign
students on campus and by exploring the
possibilities of overseas study for themselves.
Commentary:sec price hikes—unavoidable
The price of every book in the campus bookstore has
risen at least one dollar since last semester. A book entitled
'Motivation' which is used for a psychology course, received
an increase of $4.45.
This brings to mind the questions, 'Why have the
prices gone up,' and what is the money being used for?'
Refusing to be iniluenced any longer by those frequent
whispers concerning a 'corrupt SCC who's pocketing my
money,' I decided to see if the facts regrading the issue
could be obtained.
I approached Mr. Joseph Nagy, Director of the Student
Union, and presented him with a list of student's most
frequently asked questions regarding the price increase.
Instead of avoiding the issue, as I would expect him to do if
he was trying to conceal something, Nagy presented me
Letter to the Editor
To the Editor:
Dear Editor,
I find it paradoxical that
the Women's Resource
Organization (which Susan
Eschbach, in her letter of
January 24, describes as
"...more than a provider of
information on clinics,
contraceptives, V.D., and
gay lifestyles.") should be
"investigating complaints
brought by female students
about alleged violations of
ethical standards by faculty
members." (Eagle Eye,
"WRO/SCC Uunch Ethics
Probe," January 24, 1977)
What is parado.xical is that
one finds this investigation
being spearheaded by an
organization which promotes aberrant and irresponsible ethical behavior
among students and faculty. Of course, I support the
end which the WRO is
aiming to achieve here.
Indeed I would hope that
the investigation would
consider examining the role
which the WRO plays in
encouraging the very type
of behavior which it finds
scandalous.
Sincerely,
Peter A. Redpath
with a list of facts, figures, and in my opinion, very valid
reasons for the price increase. I would like to relate these
facts and reasons to you to alleviate any confusion and
answer some of your questions concerning the higher
prices.
It is important that you first realize the manner in which
the bookstore aquires books. The professor teaching a
course advises the bookstore ofthe book(s) he'll be using for
the course. The bookstore then orders the specified book«
from the publisher which carries it. The publisher suggests
the price at which a book be sold. The student store buys
the book from the publisher at the suggested retail price,
however they receive a 15 to 20 percent discount. Thus, the
bookstore pays $8 for the book that you buy at $io (the
suggested retail price.)
This brings us back to the aforementioned question,
'where is my two dollars?' According to Nagy your $2 goes
toward many expenses that the bookstore must meet. The
store employs three clerks and a bookkeeper who must be
paid. Retirement benefits must be kept in mind. Insurance, '
postage, supplies, taxes and telephone bills must be
considered. In addition to the expenses within the store,
freight charges must be paid for the shipment of books.
Increasing prices must be traced futher than the
bookstore. The SCC can not be blamed for inflation. It too, is
a victim of rising costs and the vicious cycle.
-Susan Shelly
— The great joy in having your own column (aside from
gaining prestige on campus and becoming fascinatingly
attractive to countless scores of women) is that you can write
about almosi anything you wish. I have chosen to dedicate
my first column to the new student at Lock Haven State College; the Janii:iry transfer or possibly the second seniester
freshman who hasn't quite gotten it together yet. This
column is designed to act as a guide to those students who
feel as though they are on the outside of "college life"
looking in. This column will greatly help students who
observe only the obvious and don't yet know the ful! story
behind many seemingly innocent conditions, people and
things. This guide of mine will also show you what to look
out for and if you follow closely you may avoid considerable
heartache and embarrassment.
FRAT PARTIES
The secret of frat parties, if you're the kind of girl who
doesn't go in for the twenty minute meaningful relationship,
is to avoid going upstairs at all costs. Rumor has it that at
many of the fraternity houses, quite a few more girls have
gone upstairs than ever came down. Of course things can
happen on the ground floor and in the basement as well, but
these occurrences are rare. Nevertheless, do not hesitate to
latch the bathroom door upon entering. One never knows
what kind of ravenous beast may be lurking outside.
Many people ask, "What's the best frat party?" The
answer pretty much depends on individual taste. However,
Mi a private survey ! reiently conducted, one fraternity was
mentioned more often than any other as being the best place
to party. It's a place for those who enjoy spilling beer on
people as much as they enjoy having it spilled back on them.
It's none other than the fabulous Sigma Pi house. Sigma Pi
parties, acclaimed by a majority of Lock lia.en State
partiers to be the frat party in town, have pretty much
cornered the Friday night market for drunken debauchery
and other assorted glazed states.
LEBINITES
Somewhere along the way you may hear of a certain
English professor at LHS who is said to have a Manson-like
control over his followers. His followers, mostly LHS
students, will supposedly do anything for their leader, once
ne has put them (with the help of a rare Oriental drug) into a
zon.bie-like trance. For insiance, it is said that this English
professor sends his helpless and morally unresponsible
disciples out on nightly missions of murder. This simply is
'^ot true however. He never sends them out more than two
or three nights a week,
My advice is never to look at this man If he so much as
catches your eye, you might become hopelessly ensnarled
by his hypnotic stare and like a fly in a spider's web, you will
struggle in vain to break free from his hold. Several people
have expressed concern that I myself have become a
Lebinite. I am happy to say that through the use of special
red-Iensed glasses which deflect the hypnotic power in his
eyes, I have managed to elude his evil slavery.
SMITH HALL
The secret of Smith Hall must finally be brought out
into the open. For years the dark secret of Smith Hall has
been successfully concealed. Now, in this column, the
truth will at last be dragged out from the dungeons of
secrecy and be presented for all to see. Smith Hall is not a
d.jimitory at all. It is in fact, a well camouflaged, high
security prison for the criminally insane. The people you
see coming in and out ofthe dormitory all day are being paid
by the government to act like students and thus preserve the
secret. For obvious reasons the inmates are not allowed to
answer the phones. This explains why almost every time
you call there, the phone is picked up and immediately put
back on the hook. The guards usually get there first. Occasionally an inmate will outrace the guard to the phone and
emit a series of short, animalistic grunts before the phone is
forced back down on the hook. Definitely avoid going to
Smith Hall if it's humanly possible.
LOW ACADEMIC STANDARDS
1 think far too much has been made about the poor
quality of students here at LHS. There is absolutely no truth
to the rumor that the reason many Lock Haven State
students wear platform shoes is to keep their knuckles from
dragging on the ground. However, looking around at some
ofthe students here, one almost has to wonder just who the
college rejected.
The administration is acutely aware of the situation
though, and beginning in the spring of 1978, a new
academic probation-dismissal policy will go into effect. The
gist of this new policy wil! be that if you don't have at least a
2.0 cumulative grade point average you will get a kind of two
semester vacation. It will be like a reward for those highly
skilled students who successfully manage, against all odds,
to keep their average below the 2.0 mark.
The school will cut freshmen a break however.
Freshmen will only need a 1.5 their first semester and will
be given to the end of their sophomore year to bring their
average up to a 2.0. The administration's reasoning for
allowing freshmen a little slack is valid. Recently pried out
of the family womb, these students need time to adjust to a
new way of life. Many of them \yill have to learn how to
dress themselves, how to tie their own shoelaces (unless
they brought their shoes with the snaps from home) and how
to drink three beers without relinquishing the captive
liquids and semi-solids from their stomachs and
redepositing them all over someone's brand new rug.
So you see. the administration Is making an effort to
restore dignity to the name of Lock Haven State College.
Who knows? Perhaps in two or three years when an LHS
student is asked where it is that he or she goes to school, the
newly proud Lock Haven student won't have to look at the
ground and mumble incoherently.

Commentary:Referees crucial in Bald Eagle loss
By JOHN SYNDER
Staff Reporter
Undefeated
Clarion
(16-0) defeated our basketball team 66-56 at Clarion,
on Wednesday night. The
Golden Eagles took a 30-27
halftime lead after we were
unable to protect an early
19-14 lead with 7:32 left in
the half. The game
see-sawed between the two
squads before a large,
enthusiastic Clarion crowd.
With 2:23 remaining.
Clarion took the lead to stay
28-27 and entered the
A>ckeroom with the three
point lead when a backcourt
foul gave Clarion a 1-1
which they converted into
two points.
In the second half, the
referees lost control of the
game early and started
calling technicals as a sort
of entertainment for the
partisan Clarion crowd.
Four technicals were
called, one against the
assistant
coach, Ray
Bedall, and Tom Huff. The
one against the coach was a
double technical and the
refs credited the two point
Clarion gift to a noisy bench
and Coach Black's raised
arms at the time.
Bedall, after
being
hounded, held and pushed
around by a Golden
Eagle threw the ball at his
feet and was immediately
reprimanded. Huff, after
being called for a foul,
tossed the basketball into
the air a few feet and was
penalized for tampering
with a UFO. All of the
technical fouls were converted as well as Clarion
receiving the ball out of
bounds each time after the
shots.
At 16:06 in the second
half, our cagers fied it up
36-36. At the 11:37 mark a
44-40 Clarion lead suddenly
zoomed to 48-40 with
technicals and added
bonuses, (the referees must
have felt rather generous
that night). With 3:11 left
the
Golden
Eagles
extended their lead to
58-46. This lead was cut to
63-56 with 1:54 left, but by
this time the game was
almost in the bag; the game
was a theft from the
officiating standpoint. The
officials were too loose at
both ends of the court, and

Houdini and Lindburg to heart. Evel was no exception. In
his younger days, Evel would barnstorm around the
country, jumping any car, bus, or truck that could be lined
up and put in his path. He performed most of these feats
protected only by a Sportster cycle engine and two rubber
tires.
His life wasn't easy. He has seen the inside of more
hospitals, broken more bones, and been in traction more
times than anyone cares to count. Videotape reruns of
Evel's crashes makes one wonder what makes him crawl
back on the seat of the cycle and jump again.
One doesn't have to wonder long. Knievel's Snake River
Canyon jump was one of the longest and sweetest cons in
sports. He set himself up as legitimate by logging hospital
time doing real daredevil stunts. He was an American folk
hero. Sensing the time was right. he announced that he
would jump Snake River Canyon on a motorcycle, a feat
never attempted by anyone before. In the con game, this is
known as the hook. The media hype was overwhelming, but
a few details were kept from the public. For instance, it was
never really known that the "Skycycle" that Evel used lo
jump the canyon was registered with the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) as a manned rocket. AKso the two test
cycles that Evel claimed were dismal failures were in reality
planned misses. When Evel took oft' on that fateful day and
his chute opened long before he reached the other side, the
con was complete and the payday was big.
Next week Evel will prepare to die in a lake full of sharks.
Ask any con man; if the scam works, milk it dry.

The College Players
Board of Directors are
accepting proposals from
students interested in
directing a show in the

"Studio Theatre is an
excellent chance for new
faces to become a part of
college drama and old faces
to experiment in new areas
of production," says Brian
Stoppe, College Players
President. "Directors and
designers learn the basics
of good theatre in a studio
situation, while actors and
audience experience an
intimate contact, not possible in a proscenium
situation."
Studio production dates
and rehearsal periods are
flexible. Students wishing
to propose plays should
