has no regrets about switching roles. It gives him time
to be at home and most important, it gives him the time
to write.
Although Larsen attended
a Junior college in El
Camino, California and majored in Journalism he never
received a degree. He said he
would have liked to have fin-
ished college but he also feels
that a degree is not necessary
in journalism. He stated it is
not what degrees you have
received that's important, it's
what you can put out.
Larsen stated that, as a
writer, he does hit his share
of dry spots but it doesn't
seem to keep him from finally
getting the writing done.
Larsen feels that this is where
self confidence in oneself
comes in. Larsen said there
comes a time when the writer
has to know that whatever
" B . S . " comes out, it will be
good. He feels this is also the
difference between the professional and the amateur.
Larsen's yearn to be a
writer started during the second World War when he
would go to see the old
Gregory Peck movies. He
always wantedto be the writer
Peck portrayed, the debonair, pipe smoking individual with patches on his
jacket sleeves. Although he
considers himself a lot like
Peck, her never smoked a
pipe and doesn't have any
patches, but he did become a
writer and that's what is important.

To begin next semester's
Cultural Affairs events a lecture by marathon swimmer
Diana Nyad has been scheduled for Feburary 5 in Sloan
Theater.
Diana Nyad is one of the
greatest marathon swimmers
in the world. She has had
numerous long distance
swims. Some of these have
been undertaken in such
bodies of water as the Suez
Canal, the North Sea, the
Nile River and Lake Ontario.
She is most famous, however, for her attempt to swim,
in August of 1978, from
Cuba to Florida in a $42,000,
specially-built, shark proof
cage. Although she failed to
complete the entire swim, the
seventy six miles she covered
set a world swimming record
for distance on the open-sea.
And this past summer she
broke that record by swimming the eight-nine miles from
the Bahamas io Florida.
Past lecturers presented by
the Cultural Affair.s Committee include ABC news correspondent Tom Jarriel in
May, 1979 and World War II
journalist C. Brooks Peters
this past November. This
coming April, Vincent
Bugliosi, author of "Heiter
Skelter"and prosecuting attorney against Charles Manson, is tentatively scheduled
to speak in Price Auditorium.

EAGLE EYE
Don's
Editorial
By Diane Orban
This editorial is aimed at those of you who criticize
my judgement on printing the photograph concerning
the Ayatollah Khomeini on the front page of the Tuesday, Dec. 11 issue of the EAGLE EYE.
I realize now that this editorial should have been
printed the same day as the picture, however, al the
time, I overlooked the necessity. Sorry!
I would first like to say that I, Diane Orban, as a
person, would never have printed the picture had it
not been for my responsibility as a journalist and
editor of the EAGLE EYE.
It took a lot of time for me to make the decision of
whether or not to print that photograph and I realized
at the time that some people would be offended by it,
but I made the decision and that's it! I don't like the
use of four letter words any more than the rest of you,
however, the sign was there and I couldn't just ignore
it. News is news...and if I had the decision to make
over again, 1 would do the same thing. It's my job!
I didn't write the words on that sign. I didn't hang
the sign from the roof of Bentley Hall. I was merely
trying to display the ratical behavior of some students
concerning a world-wide affair. It is my job...my
responsibility...to report the news.
And this my
friends...whether you like it or not...is news.
As you might have guessed, I have received a great
deal of feedback concerning the photograph. Some of
it was positive, but admittedly, the majority was
negative.
Because of my position as Editor, I have learned to
take criticism in stride. However, what bothers me is
that those who criticized never bothered to think
about my responsibility...or any possible reason for
printing the photograph. Most of the critics just looked at the picture as a display of a four letter word and
not as a newsworthy print.
What's even worse is that others who criticized were
those who use the word every day of their lives...and
that's okay, but it's not okay for me to print it in the
EAGLE EYE...a publication for students, faculty and
administration. So called adults. But how adult can
you really be if you aren't open minded enough to see
reason behind printing the photograph?
in concluding, I would just like to say that I hope all
of you who were "disappointed" in me or offended by
the four letter word, now understand the reasons for
my decision.

By Dan Way
It seems that everybody is waiting to see what my
response will be to the recent letter to the editor concerning my column. I hate to disappoint my faithful
readers who were waiting for me to totally embarass
her, but I cannot bandy words with Louise C. White, a
student.
You see, sweet Louise came down to "Big Dan's
School of Sexual Awareness" the same day her letter
appeared, and enrolled in the long course. It seems
Louise was a closet admirer of mine. She explained
that she really wanted a date with me, and every time
she read my column her nipples got hard. She wrote
that nasty letter only because she knew I couldn't date
her, because of frustration.
However, there are still certain other people around
campus who, unlike Louise, have not been enlightened. They still think sex is dirty, not something to be
laughed at. Ha Ha Ha! If you can't laugh at sex, what
can you laugh at?
Those people feel that my writing is obscene and indecent, that it doesn't belong in a college newspaper.
A professor of mine even commented that my writing
style was ruined by my crudity. He liked Chaucer instead.
I wonder if he knew that in Chaucer's greatest
work, The Canterbury Tales, there were such great
obscenities that even I wouldn't print them. He used
words a lot worse than those two vile-examples of filth
I chose, penis and testes. If you are into rotten, filthy,
dirty jokes, read "The Millers Tale" and "The Reves
Tale", there's some great material there.
Have you ever heard of Rabelaisian humor? It's
named after a French Renaissance writer, Francois
Rabelais, a masterful satirist. I will quote some of old
Francois' material for you, it comes from The Five
Books of Gargantua and Pantagruel. I have divided it
into two sections, the first for the scholars who want
to see my reasons for my writing, the second for all my
readers who just like to read dirty words in the paper.
Okay, self-righteous and pious prudes, her you go,
but before we start you might like to look up codpiece
for it's archaic reference:
"Well Gargantua's codpiece was like that horn:
forever lively, succulent, and resinous; forever
flourishing pollening and fructifying; full of juice, a
flower with pistils and teeming with fruit, in short (but
it was never that!), a compendium of delights. May I
never meet my God if it was not a brave spectacle to
behold! But I reserve the right to deal with it at greater
length in a book I have written upon The Dignity of
Codpieces. One thing, however, I shall disclose: if it
was extremely long and extraordinarily expansive, it
was also fully stocked and inexhaustible within. Hence
it was in no wise comparable to the hypocritical codpieces of a heap of noodles, which are crammed with
only wind, to the great prejudice of the female sex."
Alright perverts, while the assholes are reading the
above and trying to understand it, we'll share a couple
of bad words. These lines come from the first book of
Gargantua and Pantagruel, the same as the above.
"He would sometimes that lawbooks were like a
fair robe of gold, priceless and dazzling, but edged
with excrement."
"...no books on earth are so rich, so beautiful, so
decorative as the texts of the Roman Pandects. But
their border... is lousy, foul and villainous as a hundred tubs of shit."
You know, it strikes me as odd that people feel my
articles don't belong in a college newspaper. Isn't it
some sort of a contradiction to have Chaucer's
disgusting material, or Rabelais', or some of Swifts'
and even Dante's on the shelves of our library?
Isn't it odd that there was a campus play entitled
Lysistrata, that made a humorous account of sex, even
to the point of having the male characters wearing colored artificial penises, and nobody complained?
They called it a success.
Isn't it strange that the art department can put on
display portraits of nude women and nobody gets up
in arms? They call that art.
Isn't it curious that I write penis and testes and people want to castrate me?
Well to all those of you who are sickened by my articles, may the wind at your back always be your own.
You know, Chaucer stated in "The Millers'
Prologue" and therefore, who so list it not y-here,
turne over the leef and cheese another tale. Roughly
translated, this means, if someone is going to say
words like fart, shit, piss, ass, cock, etc., and you
don't like them, turn the page schmucko.
For your free copy of today's mini-lesson send
$9.95 and a self addressed stamped pair of shitty
underwear to: Dan's Way to Get Over in his Last Column.

REVIEW
If you thought we were being invaded last Thursday
night by Solar take-offs you're pleasingly mistaken.
The Solar take-off were better known as technical difficulties at a coffee house presented by the very exciting Chris Gaul and Ralph Rumberger.
Once the take-offs got off the ground, Chris and
Ralph were flying high with talent and excellent entertainment.
Some of the very many songs were: Love is a Rose
by Neil Young featuring Chris on the mandolin harmonica and vocally. Goindown the Road by Grateful
Dead. After the Gold Rush with Chris on piano. Venture a Highway by America and some very fine
orginals of both Chris and Ralph.
I didn't realize what talent Chris Gaul and Ralph
Rumberger had lurking inside them.
The crowd that attended the coffee house enjoyed
the smiles and winks of the entertainers. If you didn't
attend, you missed a great night.
Congratulations Chris and Ralph you did a fine job.
My hats' off to you. Tina Gellatt

COMMENTARY
By Keith Godshall
It happens every semester. It's ironically called the
"special class schedule/optional exam p e r i o d . " The
key word in that bewildering phrase is optional. The
exams, and the class meetings themselves, are mandatory.
The special schedule is absurd, to say the least.
What is it supposed to accomplish, other than to totally confuse and aggravate everyone? If the schedule is
meant to prevent the possibility of a student having
several exams on one day, it fails miserably. The
schedule often requires students to take more than one
final on a couple of days, if their regular classes meet
at inopportune times.
Maybe the " o p t i o n a l exam p e r i o d " is meant t o
allow more time for students to take their finals, hence
the two-hour time periods. The majority of finals,
however, can be completed in under an hour. It's time
that the administration came out of the Dark Ages,
and realized that finals are regarded by most teachers,
as well as students, as just one more test, not an event
that requires two-hours.
There are several teachers that would be happy to
give their final on the last regular class day, but are
prohibited by an insane rule that requires them to administer the test at the required exam period.
I t ' s time that administrators understood that the
" o p t i o n a l " exam period is merely a waste of time. Let
the teachers and students agree on when the exam is to
be given. The students are the ones that have to take
the tests, not the administrators.
Finals are simply tests, nothing more, nothing less.
They're not something that requires a special
schedule, especially the ineffective and ridiculous one
that we have now.
Students,
either
undergraduate or graduate
are in demand. They are
often offered the opportunity to gain field experience by working with
professors; others simply
welcome the chance to take
a semester or two off from
their studies. Currently, for
example, ERI is looking for
80 college students to assist
—COMMENTARY—
By Beth Owens
All the signs are clear-students are rushing t o finish
the work they put off all semester, typewriters are being put to good use to meet term paper deadlines, and
the library has been frequented by many new faces
lately. The semester is nearing its end.
For some students, it's the time they've been waiting
for - to "get out of this place." Some are graduating,
some are dropping out, some are taking a few
semester's break, a n d some are just happy leaving for
a vacation.
For other students, Christmas break means being
stuck in their boring hometowns, having to be home at
a decent hour, and waiting for the next semester to
begin. (It can't be all that bad though. After all,"tis
the season!")
Then there are those students who hate the end of
the semester due to finals. We work all semester and
what reward do we get at the end but even more work!
It's worse yet for dormitory students who are forbidden to make any noise above a whisper-even on the
weekend! As for fraternity parties, or rather the lack
of them, who enjoys that?
Perhaps it would be wise t o hold finals week during
only the weekdays, instead of including Saturday and
Sunday as test days. Another idea is to keep the library
open 24 hours a day during finals-a common occurrence at other colleges. Finals week isn't exactly the
end of the world, but wouldn't a few advantages for
students help?

Eagle Grapplers Fall To Tennessee, 34-9
By Boh Baiter
In wrestling action held
Tuesday night in the Thomas
Fieldhouse, a tough Tennessee squad defeated Neil
Turners Bald Eagles by a
score of 34-9.
Lock Havens Mike Millward gave the homecrowd
fans some early excitement as
he used a double arm bar to
get a pin of Randy Jenkins at
1:21 of the second period.
This gave Lock Haven a 6-0
lead.
In the 126 pound bout Tennessee's Mike Geistizia decisioned Lock Havens George
DeAugustino by a score of

within a 6-3 score.
Tennessee evened up the
match at 6-6 as Holiis Frier-

a score of 6-2 in the 134
pound bout.
Tennessee then took the
lead 9-6 in the 142 pound
bout as Mark DeAugustino
decisioned Lock Havens
John Campbell by a score of
6-3. Campbell was wrestling
the match with a sore ankle
and appeared somewhat hindered.
Tennessee also captured
the 150 pound match as King
defeated Lock Havens Ken
Parsley by a score of 12-9.
Parsley fought back to
almost win the bout as he
once trailed by a score of
10-3.

Tennessee's Milton Thompson decisioned Lock Havens
Joe Baranik by a score of

Diana Nyad is one of the
greatest marathon swimmers
in the world. She has had
numerous long distance
swims. Some of these have
been undertaken in such
bodies of water as the Suez
Canal, the North Sea, the
Nile River and Lake Ontario.
She is most famous, however, for her attempt to swim,
in August of 1978, from
Cuba to Florida in a $42,000,
specially-built, shark proof
cage. Although she failed to
complete the entire swim, the
seventy six miles she covered
set a world swimming record
for distance on the open-sea.
And this past summer she
broke that record by swimming the eight-nine miles from
the Bahamas io Florida.
Past lecturers presented by
the Cultural Affair.s Committee include ABC news correspondent Tom Jarriel in
May, 1979 and World War II

EAGLE EYE
Don's
Editorial
By Diane Orban
This editorial is aimed at those of you who criticize
my judgement on printing the photograph concerning
the Ayatollah Khomeini on the front page of the Tuesday, Dec. 11 issue of the EAGLE EYE.
I realize now that this editorial should have been
printed the same day as the picture, however, al the
time, I overlooked the necessity. Sorry!
I would first like to say that I, Diane Orban, as a
person, would never have printed the picture had it
not been for my responsibility as a journalist and
editor of the EAGLE EYE.
It took a lot of time for me to make the decision of
whether or not to print that photograph and I realized
at the time that some people would be offended by it,
but I made the decision and that's it! I don't like the
use of four letter words any more than the rest of you,
however, the sign was there and I couldn't just ignore
it. News is news...and if I had the decision to make
over again, 1 would do the same thing. It's my job!
I didn't write the words on that sign. I didn't hang
the sign from the roof of Bentley Hall. I was merely
trying to display the ratical behavior of some students
concerning a world-wide affair. It is my job...my
responsibility...to report the news.
And this my
friends...whether you like it or not...is news.
As you might have guessed, I have received a great
deal of feedback concerning the photograph. Some of
it was positive, but admittedly, the majority was
negative.
Because of my position as Editor, I have learned to
take criticism in stride. However, what bothers me is
that those who criticized never bothered to think
about my responsibility...or any possible reason for
printing the photograph. Most of the critics just looked at the picture as a display of a four letter word and
not as a newsworthy print.
What's even worse is that others who criticized were
those who use the word every day of their lives...and
that's okay, but it's not okay for me to print it in the
EAGLE EYE...a publication for students, faculty and
administration. So called adults. But how adult can
you really be if you aren't open minded enough to see
reason behind printing the photograph?
in concluding, I would just like to say that I hope all
of you who were "disappointed" in me or offended by
the four letter word, now understand the reasons for
my decision.

By Dan Way
It seems that everybody is waiting to see what my
response will be to the recent letter to the editor concerning my column. I hate to disappoint my faithful
readers who were waiting for me to totally embarass
her, but I cannot bandy words with Louise C. White, a
student.
You see, sweet Louise came down to "Big Dan's
School of Sexual Awareness" the same day her letter
appeared, and enrolled in the long course. It seems
Louise was a closet admirer of mine. She explained
that she really wanted a date with me, and every time
she read my column her nipples got hard. She wrote
that nasty letter only because she knew I couldn't date
her, because of frustration.
However, there are still certain other people around
campus who, unlike Louise, have not been enlightened. They still think sex is dirty, not something to be
laughed at. Ha Ha Ha! If you can't laugh at sex, what
can you laugh at?
Those people feel that my writing is obscene and indecent, that it doesn't belong in a college newspaper.
A professor of mine even commented that my writing
style was ruined by my crudity. He liked Chaucer instead.
I wonder if he knew that in Chaucer's greatest
work, The Canterbury Tales, there were such great
obscenities that even I wouldn't print them. He used
words a lot worse than those two vile-examples of filth
I chose, penis and testes. If you are into rotten, filthy,
dirty jokes, read "The Millers Tale" and "The Reves
Tale", there's some great material there.
Have you ever heard of Rabelaisian humor? It's
named after a French Renaissance writer, Francois
Rabelais, a masterful satirist. I will quote some of old
Francois' material for you, it comes from The Five
Books of Gargantua and Pantagruel. I have divided it
into two sections, the first for the scholars who want
to see my reasons for my writing, the second for all my
readers who just like to read dirty words in the paper.
Okay, self-righteous and pious prudes, her you go,
but before we start you might like to look up codpiece
for it's archaic reference:
"Well Gargantua's codpiece was like that horn:
forever lively, succulent, and resinous; forever
flourishing pollening and fructifying; full of juice, a
flower with pistils and teeming with fruit, in short (but
it was never that!), a compendium of delights. May I
never meet my God if it was not a brave spectacle to
behold! But I reserve the right to deal with it at greater
length in a book I have written upon The Dignity of
Codpieces. One thing, however, I shall disclose: if it
was extremely long and extraordinarily expansive, it
was also fully stocked and inexhaustible within. Hence
it was in no wise comparable to the hypocritical codpieces of a heap of noodles, which are crammed with
only wind, to the great prejudice of the female sex."
Alright perverts, while the assholes are reading the
above and trying to understand it, we'll share a couple
of bad words. These lines come from the first book of
Gargantua and Pantagruel, the same as the above.
"He would sometimes that lawbooks were like a
fair robe of gold, priceless and dazzling, but edged
with excrement."
"...no books on earth are so rich, so beautiful, so
decorative as the texts of the Roman Pandects. But
their border... is lousy, foul and villainous as a hundred tubs of shit."
You know, it strikes me as odd that people feel my
articles don't belong in a college newspaper. Isn't it
some sort of a contradiction to have Chaucer's
disgusting material, or Rabelais', or some of Swifts'
and even Dante's on the shelves of our library?
Isn't it odd that there was a campus play entitled
Lysistrata, that made a humorous account of sex, even
to the point of having the male characters wearing colored artificial penises, and nobody complained?
They called it a success.
Isn't it strange that the art department can put on
display portraits of nude women and nobody gets up
in arms? They call that art.
Isn't it curious that I write penis and testes and people want to castrate me?
Well to all those of you who are sickened by my articles, may the wind at your back always be your own.
You know, Chaucer stated in "The Millers'
Prologue" and therefore, who so list it not y-here,
turne over the leef and cheese another tale. Roughly
translated, this means, if someone is going to say
words like fart, shit, piss, ass, cock, etc., and you
don't like them, turn the page schmucko.

REVIEW
If you thought we were being invaded last Thursday
night by Solar take-offs you're pleasingly mistaken.
The Solar take-off were better known as technical difficulties at a coffee house presented by the very exciting Chris Gaul and Ralph Rumberger.
Once the take-offs got off the ground, Chris and
Ralph were flying high with talent and excellent entertainment.
Some of the very many songs were: Love is a Rose
by Neil Young featuring Chris on the mandolin harmonica and vocally. Goindown the Road by Grateful
Dead. After the Gold Rush with Chris on piano. Venture a Highway by America and some very fine
orginals of both Chris and Ralph.
I didn't realize what talent Chris Gaul and Ralph
Rumberger had lurking inside them.
The crowd that attended the coffee house enjoyed
the smiles and winks of the entertainers. If you didn't
attend, you missed a great night.
Congratulations Chris and Ralph you did a fine job.
My hats' off to you. Tina Gellatt

COMMENTARY
By Keith Godshall
It happens every semester. It's ironically called the
"special class schedule/optional exam p e r i o d . " The
key word in that bewildering phrase is optional. The
exams, and the class meetings themselves, are mandatory.
The special schedule is absurd, to say the least.
What is it supposed to accomplish, other than to totally confuse and aggravate everyone? If the schedule is
meant to prevent the possibility of a student having
several exams on one day, it fails miserably. The
schedule often requires students to take more than one
final on a couple of days, if their regular classes meet
at inopportune times.
Maybe the " o p t i o n a l exam p e r i o d " is meant t o
allow more time for students to take their finals, hence
the two-hour time periods. The majority of finals,
however, can be completed in under an hour. It's time
that the administration came out of the Dark Ages,
and realized that finals are regarded by most teachers,
as well as students, as just one more test, not an event
that requires two-hours.
There are several teachers that would be happy to
give their final on the last regular class day, but are
prohibited by an insane rule that requires them to administer the test at the required exam period.
I t ' s time that administrators understood that the
" o p t i o n a l " exam period is merely a waste of time. Let
the teachers and students agree on when the exam is to
be given. The students are the ones that have to take
the tests, not the administrators.
Finals are simply tests, nothing more, nothing less.
They're not something that requires a special
schedule, especially the ineffective and ridiculous one
that we have now.
Students,
either
undergraduate or graduate
are in demand. They are
often offered the opportunity to gain field experience by working with
professors; others simply
welcome the chance to take
a semester or two off from
their studies. Currently, for
example, ERI is looking for
80 college students to assist
—COMMENTARY—
By Beth Owens
All the signs are clear-students are rushing t o finish
the work they put off all semester, typewriters are being put to good use to meet term paper deadlines, and
the library has been frequented by many new faces
lately. The semester is nearing its end.
For some students, it's the time they've been waiting
for - to "get out of this place." Some are graduating,
some are dropping out, some are taking a few
semester's break, a n d some are just happy leaving for
a vacation.
For other students, Christmas break means being
stuck in their boring hometowns, having to be home at
a decent hour, and waiting for the next semester to
begin. (It can't be all that bad though. After all,"tis
the season!")
Then there are those students who hate the end of
the semester due to finals. We work all semester and
what reward do we get at the end but even more work!
It's worse yet for dormitory students who are forbidden to make any noise above a whisper-even on the
weekend! As for fraternity parties, or rather the lack
of them, who enjoys that?
Perhaps it would be wise t o hold finals week during
only the weekdays, instead of including Saturday and
Sunday as test days. Another idea is to keep the library
open 24 hours a day during finals-a common occurrence at other colleges. Finals week isn't exactly the
end of the world, but wouldn't a few advantages for
students help?
