Tuition increase is a possibility for upcoming semester
By Kim Wilkinson
Students of the 14 state-owned universities may face a tuition increase next fall
semester, according to James McCormick,
chancellor of the State System of Higher
Education (SSHE).
The SSHE system requested a 6.4%
budget increase, but according to Governor
Dick Thornburgh's budget proposal, the
SSHE system will only receive a 4.0%
budget increase.
According to George Marshall, vicepresident for administration, the chances of
the SSHE system receiving a 6.4% budget
increase are slim.
Marshall said there are three factors that
help decide how much tuition will have to
be paid. These include: what increase the
legislature passes; the sizes of settlements
with the various unions; and the overall inflation rate.
If the legislature does not pass a 6.4 based on union settlements, utilities increase, and maintenance costs.
The Board of Presidents of the State
Universities will present this proposed tuition rate to the SSHE Board of Governors.
The Board of Bovernors then set a tuition
rate. It is not decided on a local level.
Marshall said that if the SSHE system
receives a 4.0% increase, Lock Haven
University will receive a $303,000 increase
(2.8%). Of this, he added, $100,000 will go
toward electricity.
"There is a small probabilitiy of less than
a $50.(X) increase and it probably won't exceed $I25.(X) The tuition increase wil probably be right in the middle of that
estimate," Marshall said.
Crime rate rises in month of March
James McCormick, chancellor of the State System of Higher Education (SSHE), stated
that students of the 14 state-owned universities may face a tuition increase next fail
semester.
Professor's wife's knife confiscated in D.C.
By Sherri Wray
A trip to the White House can be a very
memorable event in one's life, especially if
one has a kitchen knife confiscated by the
security men there, as Vanitha Dayananda
did.
While in Washington, D.C. last
December, Mrs. Dayananda purchased a
kitchen knife at Hoffritz, a small cuttery
shop. Instead of returning it to the hotel,
she carried it along with her to the White
House to save time. She didn't realize at the
time security people at the White House
would consider it a weapon.
Mrs. Dayananda thought there would be
a check-in, as in museums she had seen
before. But as it turned out, there were
none.
There were no warning signs on the gates
against sharp objects such as the knife,
brought in by a tourist. There was only one,
inside the doors of the White House and
that did not give Mrs. Dayananda enough
time to think about what she was going to
do.
After seeing the warning sign, she immediately contacted a security officer,
before going through the electronic security
check-up. He took the knife and she and
her daughters proceeded with the tour. If
Mrs. Dayananda did not give up the knife
she could have been arrested.
Mrs. Dayananda received her knife back
on March 1, 1985 along with an exciting call
from the White House. She had written
many letters to senators and representatives
asking them for help. The most effective
letter was written to President Reagan. The
letters contained evidence of the recent purchase of the knife. Then the White House
officials reconsidered her case and said she
had a convincing argument and decided to
return her knife. They usually do not return
confiscated items.
Mrs. Dayananda says she was shocked of
what had happened but says, "1 was not going to give up. The truth was on my side."
She was very happy of the outcome but still
said she couldn't believe she did it.
She suggested to the security officials
that they should place more warning signs
up along the waiting line. Mrs. Dayananda
is happy to say that they have done this, so
hopefully it will not happen to anyone else.
Mrs. Dayananda says that she learned
one important lesson through all that has
happened. That is, "one person can truly
make a difference."
Vanitha Dayananda's husband is Dr.
James Dayananda, a professor here at Lock
Haven University.

According to law enforcement officer
Jeffrey Johnson, March has the largest
number of criminal incidents for the
1984-85 school year. The current amount of
March criminal incidents is 54. The criminal
incidents range from theft to false fire
alarms, and include such things as criminal
mischief (breaking windows, etc.), harassment, trespassing, and assault. Johnson
stated that, "The month of March is the
busiest and we are only half-way through
it."
During the fall semester, September had
the largest number of criminal incidents
which totalled 51. The total number of
thefts during September was 13, four of
which were solved. The value of the thefts
was estimated at $3,052, of which $2,492
was recovered.
The month of October had 44 criminal
incidents, 13 of which were thefts. Eight of
those thefts were solved, and out of $647 in
value, $185 was recovered.
In November there was a total of 37
criminal incidents, eight of which were
thefts, with a value of $1,384 stolen and only $15 recovered. December had 38 criminal
incidents, nine of which were thefts, with a
value of $733.05, of which $428.05 was
recovered. Officer Johnson added that
there is a rise in thefts before long vacations
because everything gets packed away and
then is left at home, making it hard to trace.
In the past, alcohol and alcohol related
incidents had posed the biggest problem.
Thefts and criminal mischief are the biggest
problems at the present time, although
alcohol related problems still make up a
percentage of total incidents.
Even with the amount of criminal incidents, according to officer Johnson, Lock
Haven has the largest clearance rate of any
other university in Pennsylvania. By
clearance rate it is meant that out of all the
crimes committed, half or more are solved.

Theft rise brings concern
In little oie "Lost Haven," one would think ail of your belongings will
be safe. No neetd to worry about the criminal element here!
Not necessarily so. Recently there has been a rash of thefts
throughout the dorms. Money has been stolen from both rooms and
receptionist's desks in the lobby.
According to the LHU law enforcement investigator, Jeff Johnson,
the number of incidents per month have more than doubled from
March 1984 to March 1985.
Yet even more incidents cannot be investigated because the victims have not reported it to law enforcement. Law enforcement does
not have any officers with ESP. It seems ridiculous to me that people
would allow another to get away with stealing his/her money. These
people are encouaging the thief to continue stealing.
One small incident may sem unsolvable to you, but to a trained investigator it will be an important piece to the overall puzzle.
It cannot be overemphasized how important it is to report these
thefts. Sitting around complaining about it has never caught a thief.
in the meantime, if you haven't been victimized, take extra precautions. Don't leave your door unlocked for any length of time.
Kim
Misconceptions put to rest
This reply is in reference to Mr. Gittleman's letter to the editor
which appears in today's issue. Our intention is not to attack Mr. Gittleman personally. We cannot, however, allow unfactual material to be
printed. If a judgement is to be made on an issue, let it be the individual reader who makes this decision.
1. The Eagle Eye staff does not, and will not, attack any letter to the
editor. Our reply to Matt Riley's article was simply in response to a
question he raised in his letter. He was looking for answers, we supplied them for him.
2. It is not stated in any document that the Eagle Eye be delivered on
a certain day at a certain time. We are funded to publish a newspaper
twice a week, which we always do.
3. The SCC does not own the newspaper as you claim. The SCC
funds the Eagle Eye.
4. Any graduate of Lock Haven University's journalism program is required to have a full understanding of 1st Amendment Law. The use of
this law in today's letter to the editor is way out of context.
5. Mr. Gittleman does not work for us, he works for the Public Relations office. It is apparent that he knows very little about Public Relations. PR releases never receive by-lines.
6. Mr. Gittleman claims that he has won "enough awards to fill our
office walls," before transferring from Temple University. If this is
true. Temple must be hurting. The grammar and semantics in the
original copy of his letter to the editor were atrocious. If Mr. Gittleman
is such an expert critic in the field of journalism, why did he change
his major to psychology?

Dear Editor,
Did you ever have the feeling that you

Ever wondered how many others there were
in your situation, especially if you happen
to be a newly returned student, or have
transferred from another campus? Believe
me you are not alone.
Almost twenty percent of the total enrollment of Lock Haven University is in the
same group. There's even one full time student in his sixties! That's why some of us
are forming an Adult Education Organization.
We have set several goals. We want to
form an information referral service, just
for us "older folks." We want to give the
adult student a forum to discuss our particular needs, especially with our peers. We
want to have our needs represented to
various agencies on campus. We are also interested in sponsoring social events aimed at
our peer group.
We will be holding an organizational
meeting this Thursday, March 21st, at I
p.m. downstairs at the PUB. Why not join
us!
Ross Moyer
Corresponding Secretary
Dear Editor:
or not have understood)
Fortunately for all involved, I am not active in the S.C.C. Yet I do have some
qualifications to recommend me to write
this letter.
One, so that you can't discredit my journalistic sense of responsibility (perhaps I
watched too much Lou Grant), I was a
journalism major at Temple University
before I came to LHU. I won enough
awards to fill your office walls, gentlemen.
Second, you say: "One can only wonder
what the results would be if all of our expert
critics would contribute. It's too bad that
all we can do is wonder." Forgive me for
repeating, but I do consider myself one of
your most expert critics.
And I work for you.
I am currently employed by the Public
Relations Office of Lock Haven University,
in Himes Hall. As such, I write a great
number of press releases on campus goingson. These are forwarded as a matter of
course to your offices, where they almost
always find their way -unaltered - into the
pages of this rag. My name, which is always
on the press release, never makes it into the
paper as a byline, despite the fact that I am
a student contributor as much as anyone.
For this, I breathe easier.
Let's talk about professionalism. And
apathy.
I hope you and your staff have jobs lined
up for graduation. I hope your dreams are
not elaborate ones; I hope graduate school
is in your plans.
It is consistently a pleasure talking with
you. Please spell the name right.
David B. Gittelman
I have read with continuing amusement
the saga of the apathetic students who
would rather complain than work. I have
often thought that quite a few people buy
your offer of, "If you're not working down
here, you can't complain. Either put up or
shut u p . "
Readers of the Eagle Eye might
remember me - I try and pick one cause
each semester, and bring it into the public
eye. This cause is usually the complete lack
of professionalism and journalistic responsibility of the Eagle Eye. So be it this
semester.
For what it's worth, I am a senior, a
psychology major, and a native of
Philadelphia. If you have not yet found
something with whigh to discredit me, I beg
you to but wait - you'll come up with
something.
If I were a person high up in the S . C . C ,
and 1 read that the newspaper I fund in toto
was not responsible to me in any way for a
commitment of delivery dates or times, I
would begin to wonder. If I were a member
of a student-run corporation who owned
the bloody newspaper, and that newspaper
was printing letters so they could come up
with concurrent, biting replies that surely
must discourage future imput, I wouldn't
wonder anymore.
I would be assured that the editorial staff
of said paper was so full of self-righteous
hot air, and dangerous in a position of such
power as the head of a publication with a
2500-plus circulation, I would terminate the
employment of those responsible faster
than you could say, "First Amendment."

Eight LHU boxers fight for spot in national tourney
The Lock Haven University Boxing Club
has qualified eight boxers for the Eastern
Collegiate Boxing Association (ECBA)
North Regional Championship to be held
March 22 and 23 at Lock Haven's Thomas
Field House. This is the fourth consecutive
year the Bald Eagles have played host to the
qualifying tournament. Eleven ECBANorth teams have qualified one or more
boxers for the competition.
The 12 weight division champions will
advance to the National Collegiate Boxing
Association (NCBA) Championships to be
held in Atlantic City on April 12-13.
Virginia Military Academy will, host the
NCBA's at the Atlantis Hotel Ball Room in
Atlantic City.
I h e Bald Eagles placed third in the 1984
NCBA team standings at the University of
California-Berkeley and came home with
three "All-American's" including its first
national champion in graduated 119
pounder Dave Washington, now a second
lieutenant in the U.S. Army.
Leading the "Haven" boxers will be
team captain senior Tim Frymyer, 112, who
is a three time All-American, but has yet to
win the national title. The heavily favored
Frymyer from Reedsville, Pa., has the opportunity to join an elite group of collegiate
boxers who earned four "All-American"
awards. The classy 112 pounder has set his
sights on the national title before he
graduates in May and enters the U.S. Army.
Lock Haven's second "All-American"
junior Steve Greber has dropped from the
156 pound class to 147 to increase his
chances at the national level. The
Philadelphia southpaw placed second last
April at Berkeley.
Lock Haven's third legitimate chance for
a national title is sophomore 165 pound
John Morrin, last years ECBA runnerup.
The tough Morrin, a Philadelphia native,
must qualify in probably the toughest
weight class in the Eastern's. Both Jimmy
Romanelli (Dickinson) and Terrance Green
(Army) are also boxing in the 165 pound
division. Green was runner-up to Greber in
last year's Eastern at 156 pounds.
Romanelli was a national 165 pound
runner-up at Berkeley.
5
•::)
Three time All-American Tim Frymyer and Sophomore John Morrin will vie for a spot
in the national boxing championships this weekend in Thomas Fieldhouse.
Coach Ken Cooper, former LHU "AllAmerican", is confident that Morrin has
the skills and motivation to win his division.
Morrin upset Romanelli in the "Salute to
Champions" Invitation at the Downtown
Athletic Club in New York City last
November. Morrin could move up to 172
and probably win the ECBA's, but that
would hurt his chances in the nationals,
concluded Cooper.
The "big" three, Frymyer, Greber, and
Morrin are ready and will all be seeded
Number I continued Cooper. The Bald
Eagles have also qualified Marcello
Cancelli, 132; Martin Breever, 139; Brett
Stevens, 172; Geoff Glenn, 180; and Renny
Dowdell, 190 for the 'open' competition.
All five boxers will also box 'novice' bouts.
They are Barrett Lebin, 156 and George
Fronjka, 190.
The top five teams in the ECBA-North
will be host Lock Haven, Central Connecticut State University, U.S.' Military
Academy (Army), Penn State University,
and Shippensburg University.
According to Dr. Ken Cox, associate
coach and the chairman of the ECBA, the
top boxers expected in each weight division
at the ECBA's are (profile):
112 - Tim Frymyer (LHU), 1984 NCBA
runnerup is highly favored. Onlv possible
challenger. Bob Borin (Toronto). The
veteran Frymyer is considered to be the best
collegiate boxer pound for pound in the
East. Frymyer has a 20-5 career record. A
national title would make Frymyer the most
productive LHU boxer in the modern 'era'
of boxing.
119 - Wide open and not a very strong
division. Lanky Robert Maminski (Shippensburg) is a slight favorite.
125 - Loaded weight. Senior John Calles
(CCSU), defending champion and 1984
NCBA runner-up, has edge. Kent Green
(Army) and Stan Hickman (PSU) are tough
challengers. Calles is a two time "AllAmerican".
132 - Kevin Counter (CCSU), last year's
champ and 1984 NCBA runner-up, is the
heavy favorite. Scott Clark (PSU) has been
impressive this season. LHU's Marcello
Cancelli, from Brazil, is a dark-horse.
139 - Well balanced weight. Freshman
Martin Breever (LHU) cannot be counted
out. However, Tate DeCray (PSU), Rodney
Smith (Army) and Jimmy Connors (CCSU)
could win.
147 - LHU's Steve Greber is heavy
favorite. Greber will be challenged by Manny Silva (CCSU). Greber decisioned Silva
last Saturday in the CCSU Invitational at
New Britain, Connecticut.
156 - Wide open weight. Veteran Steve
Brace (CCSU) is slight favorite. This is not
expected to be a strong division. Mike
Paolin (PSy) and Bill Miradle (Army)
could challenge.
165 - Loaded weight. Morrin (LHU),
Green (Army), and Romanelli (Dickinson)
are all national caliber. Morrin is a slight
favorite and is undefeated (4-0) this season.
172 - Wide open weight. Probably Joe
Pillari (PSU) and Mike Haydak (Army) are
the best. Boxer of the future in this weight
could be footballer Tom Pietzrak (Lycoming) LHU junior Brett Stevens is a darkhorse.
180 - Wide open weight. Jay Bontavich
(CCSU) is undefeated (4-0) this season, and
is a slight favorite. John Poncy (Army)
could challenge. Bontavich defeated
Dowdell last Saturday at New Britain, Connecticut. LHU senior Geoff Glenn is a good
boxer but is also a dark-horse.
190 - Not a strong weight. Either
freshman Renny Dowdell (LHU) or Tim
McCauley (PSU) could win. The best college 190 pounder in ECBA could be John
Stabinsky of Williamsport Area Community College (WACC). However, WACC
boxers are ineligible for national compietition because they are a two-year school.
HWT - Very strong weight. Last year's
ECBA champ and NCBA runner-up
Michael Regan (Shippensburg) will have to
be at his best to beat Army's Tony Emmi.
Dr. Cox said, "Overall, we expect to
have some excellent boxing. The boxers
have been training since last September,
with the primary objective to improve their
boxing skills, have an enjoyable expeiience,
and perform at their optimal level." Dr.
Cox added, "There is no team title in the
ECBA regionals. All emphasis is on individual accomplishments."
An "Outstanding Boxer Award," as
chosen by the five judges and two referees,
will be awarded at the conclusion of Saturday night's finals. The pig-tail and semifinal bouts begin at 7:30 p.m. on Friday
with the championship finals at 7:30 p.m.
on Saturday.
The admission price are ring-side, $3.00,
general admission, $2.00 and students,
$1.00. LHU students will be admitted free
with their ID.
National tournament disappointing for Lock Haven grapplers
By Dave Walters
After the NCAA Wrestling championships came to a close, the Lock Haven
University wrestlers returned home with a
disappointing 32nd place finish and no AilAmericans.
The Bald Eagle wrestlers had six
qualifiers in the prestigious tournament,
but could only muster five wins. Dispite the
lack of victories. Lock Haven finished
ahead of major wrestling powers like
Nebraska, Army, West Virginia and Navy.
Head coach Neil Turner said, " I ' m
disappointed but not discouraged. I'm very
proud of the six guys that represented us.
They didn't obtain their goals. Our goal as
a team was to be in the top 10 and individually in the top eight."
The Eastern Wrestling League, in which
Lock Haven is a member, placed six
members in the top eight. Iowa led the team
standings capturing their eighth straight
NCAA tournament title and ninth in ten
years. In second was Oklahoma, followed
by Iowa State, Oklahoma State and
Michigan.
EWL champ Penn State finished a strong
seventh. Sophomore Nittany Lion Greg
Elinsky, who finished seventh last year,
ended up second this year. He lost a 4-3
decision to top seeded Morty Kistler of
Iowa in the finals. Chris Bevilacqua at 150
and Steve Sefter at heavyweight finished
fourth for Penn State.
The Huskies of Bloomsburg, who the
Bald Eagles beat twice this season in dual
meet action, finished a respective tenth.
Sophomore Ricky Bonomo won the 118 lb.
title with a 17-3 decision over Matt Egeland
of Iowa. His third seeded brother Rocky
lost in the opening round to an unseeded
wrestler.
For Lock Haven, at 118, Dicky Howell
faced ninth seeded Joe Melchiore of
Oklahoma in the first round. The Sooner
wrestler jumped out to a five point lead
against Howell with a takedown and a
three-point nearfall. In the second period,
Howell was put on his back by his
Oklahoma opponent and, in 47 seconds,
was pinned. In Howell's second match, the
first round of consolations, he faced Edwardsville's fourth seeded Tim Wright.
Howell came out on top 7-3 and went on to
meet Dave Cristanti of Princeton for an opportunity to place in the top eight. Howell
lost a 6-1 overtime decision after a 3-3 tie in
regulation.
Senior co-captain Tom Kreamer squared
off against third seeded and eventual runner up John Orr of Princeton. Orr craftfully handled Kreamer, 13-1. In the consolations, Kreamer battled Brigham Young's
Chris Humpherys but came up on the short
end of a 9-5 decision. That was Kreamer's
last bout as a Bald Eagle.
Freshman Brad Lloyd registered a 9-2
decision over Wright State's Ken Davis at
158. Lloyd went on to face the eventual
sixth place finisher, Ernie Blazeff of
Michigan State, in the second round.
Blazeff came out on top 9-2. Mark Litts of
Clemson was Lloyd's next opponent in the
consolations. Litts handed the young Bald
Eagle a 7-2 loss.
At 167, sophomore Jody Karam went up
against the eventual champion Chris Edmond of Tennessee and came up on the
short end of a 13-5 decision. Karam then
went on to face Northwestern's Mike Kraft.
The Bald Eagle wrestler decked Kraft in
5:04 to advance. Cal-Poly's Dan Remeco
put Karam's NCAA tournament to a halt
with a 7-2 decision.
Junior Greg Wykoff didn't have much of
a chance to show himself as he only wrestled one bout. Monte Wilcox shut Wykoff
out 9-0. Wykoff didn't get into the consolations.
Rick Petersen saw his bid for a national
heavyweight title slip away as he lost a 10-8
decision to Kirk Trost of Michigan in the
quarterfinals. Trost was eight seeded and
finished second to Temple's Bill Hyman.
Petersen met up with Iowa State's Darryl
Peterson in the consolations. The LHU
heavyweight fell peril to a first period pin in
1:40. Turner said, "Rick was over anxious
against Trost and he hadn't recovered
psychologically against Peterson."
Turner added, "I really appreciate the
student and University support. I also appreciate the financial support by the student
government. This support doesn't go unnoticed."

freshman gymnast Karen O'Mahen finished Ihe season as the top performer on her team.
Gymnast concludes fine year
By Karen Merlie
First year gymnast, Karen O ' M a h e n ,
finished the season as the t o p performerx>n
her team. O ' M a h e n was a competitor of the
all-around event throughout the season.
It all began for O ' M a h e n in Hickory,
Pennsylvania, when she was five years-old.
She took dance and ballet at a studio for the
arts. By the time she was in sixth grade,
O ' M a h e n was competing in state and tristate competitions for a private club. She
made the varsity team as a freshman, where
she was member two on the team until her
junior year when she was on t o p .
Lock Haven does not recruit for gymnastics, so O ' M a h e n was a walk-on. " I
knew it would be competitive, and I had a
lot to learn about being able to compete at
the college level," stated O ' M a h e n . She
wasn't out to prove herself, but she did
want to fit in and become friends with her
teammates.
" C o a c h Mel M a n n o is a good coach and
we like to have a lot of fun with her. She
works us hard to be in our best c o n d i t i o n , "
quoted O ' M a h e n .
This was the first season she went
through without her family rooting her on.
T h r o u g h o u t her career, her family has been
supportive with everything she is involved
with.
Even though Lock Haven's record o n the
year was 2-3, O ' M a h e n thought the team
had a fairly good season with room for improvement.
O ' M a h e n set her team goals on helping in
any way she could have d o n e , and personal
goals on making it t o Regionals. Regionals
wferen't in order for this year, but O ' M a h e n
is optimistic for her final three years at
Lock Haven.
T h e highlight of O ' M a h e n ' s season was
winning her first all-around competition in
the first meet of the season against Ursinus.
She didn't expect t o be number one on the
team all year. O ' M a h e n won two of the five
all-around competitions which events included the beam, floor exercise, bars, and
vault.
O ' M a h e n was plagued with injuries
throughout the season. " I had shin splints,
a wrist injury, and an ankle injury. I'll be
having surgery over spring b r e a k , " stated
the 5 ' - 8 " gymnast.
O ' M a h e n is planning to train all summer,
and will be looking forward to her
sophomore year. Lock Haven will be returning everyone next season according t o
O ' M a h e n , who hopes to be a gymnastics
coach in the future.
W h e n 1988 rolls a r o u n d , O ' M a h e n
would like to look back a n d be able to say
she performed to the best of her ability and
was a true competitor.
Football recruiting season underway
By Shawn Carey
A b o u t this time every year, people are
glued to the television watching basketballs
fly through the air or some are now just
beginning t o follow their favorite baseball
teanis going through spring training. But
for the Lock Haven University football
squad, the 1985-86 football season is literally in full swing.
H e a d coach Jack Fisher, who will begin
his eighth season at the Bald Eagle helm this
fall, along with his recruiters and assistant
coaches are well into the recruiting season.
So far, the staff has visited over 400 high
schools throughout Pennsylvania, eastern
O h i o , New Jersey, and southern New York.
Most of the traveling took place over the recent semester break.
O n - c a m p u s visits have also occurred.
There have been over 100 recruits visit L H U
on weekdays since the beginning of last year
and 120 on Saturdays, which began J a n u a r y
19. Almost 200 student athletes are still being recruited, 12 of them giving definite
committments on coming to " T h e H a v e n . "
A few of the top rcc-j-ts are Jersry S^r>Te
High standout running-back J o h n MacCalister, quarterback Dave Coolidge from
South Williamsport, and linebacker Phil
Stokes from Bethlehem Liberty.
Spring season practice is right around the
corner. Starting April 8 and running for
four weeks, there will be five practices a
week about two hours per practice.
According to Fisher, the Bald Eagles'
strengths on defense are in their secondary,
inside and outside linebackers, and special
teams. On offense the strengths are the
r u n n i n g - b a c k s a n d f r o n t line. T h e
weaknesses on offense are the center position and that the receivers's speed could
use improvement. On defense, he is concerned about the lack of depth on the
defensive line.
Coach Fisher also gave his views on the
future status on the P S A C , " I f a team
works hard enough a n d has a good
recruiting season, then they should have
high hopes of finishing high in the conference. It (the conference) should be better
than ever this y e a r . "

Tuition increase is a possibility for upcoming semester
By Kim Wilkinson
Students of the 14 state-owned universities may face a tuition increase next fall
semester, according to James McCormick,
chancellor of the State System of Higher
Education (SSHE).
The SSHE system requested a 6.4%
budget increase, but according to Governor
Dick Thornburgh's budget proposal, the
SSHE system will only receive a 4.0%
budget increase.
According to George Marshall, vicepresident for administration, the chances of
the SSHE system receiving a 6.4% budget
increase are slim.
Marshall said there are three factors that
help decide how much tuition will have to
be paid. These include: what increase the
legislature passes; the sizes of settlements
with the various unions; and the overall inflation rate.
If the legislature does not pass a 6.4 based on union settlements, utilities increase, and maintenance costs.
The Board of Presidents of the State
Universities will present this proposed tuition rate to the SSHE Board of Governors.
The Board of Bovernors then set a tuition
rate. It is not decided on a local level.
Marshall said that if the SSHE system
receives a 4.0% increase, Lock Haven
University will receive a $303,000 increase
(2.8%). Of this, he added, $100,000 will go
toward electricity.
"There is a small probabilitiy of less than
a $50.(X) increase and it probably won't exceed $I25.(X) The tuition increase wil probably be right in the middle of that
estimate," Marshall said.
Crime rate rises in month of March
James McCormick, chancellor of the State System of Higher Education (SSHE), stated
that students of the 14 state-owned universities may face a tuition increase next fail
semester.
Professor's wife's knife confiscated in D.C.
By Sherri Wray
A trip to the White House can be a very
memorable event in one's life, especially if
one has a kitchen knife confiscated by the
security men there, as Vanitha Dayananda
did.
While in Washington, D.C. last
December, Mrs. Dayananda purchased a
kitchen knife at Hoffritz, a small cuttery
shop. Instead of returning it to the hotel,
she carried it along with her to the White
House to save time. She didn't realize at the
time security people at the White House
would consider it a weapon.
Mrs. Dayananda thought there would be
a check-in, as in museums she had seen
before. But as it turned out, there were
none.
There were no warning signs on the gates
against sharp objects such as the knife,
brought in by a tourist. There was only one,
inside the doors of the White House and
that did not give Mrs. Dayananda enough
time to think about what she was going to
do.
After seeing the warning sign, she immediately contacted a security officer,
before going through the electronic security
check-up. He took the knife and she and
her daughters proceeded with the tour. If
Mrs. Dayananda did not give up the knife
she could have been arrested.
Mrs. Dayananda received her knife back
on March 1, 1985 along with an exciting call
from the White House. She had written
many letters to senators and representatives
asking them for help. The most effective
letter was written to President Reagan. The
letters contained evidence of the recent purchase of the knife. Then the White House
officials reconsidered her case and said she
had a convincing argument and decided to
return her knife. They usually do not return
confiscated items.
Mrs. Dayananda says she was shocked of
what had happened but says, "1 was not going to give up. The truth was on my side."
She was very happy of the outcome but still
said she couldn't believe she did it.
She suggested to the security officials
that they should place more warning signs
up along the waiting line. Mrs. Dayananda
is happy to say that they have done this, so
hopefully it will not happen to anyone else.
Mrs. Dayananda says that she learned
one important lesson through all that has
happened. That is, "one person can truly
make a difference."
Vanitha Dayananda's husband is Dr.
James Dayananda, a professor here at Lock
Haven University.

According to law enforcement officer
Jeffrey Johnson, March has the largest
number of criminal incidents for the
1984-85 school year. The current amount of
March criminal incidents is 54. The criminal
incidents range from theft to false fire
alarms, and include such things as criminal
mischief (breaking windows, etc.), harassment, trespassing, and assault. Johnson
stated that, "The month of March is the
busiest and we are only half-way through
it."
During the fall semester, September had
the largest number of criminal incidents
which totalled 51. The total number of
thefts during September was 13, four of
which were solved. The value of the thefts
was estimated at $3,052, of which $2,492
was recovered.
The month of October had 44 criminal
incidents, 13 of which were thefts. Eight of
those thefts were solved, and out of $647 in
value, $185 was recovered.
In November there was a total of 37
criminal incidents, eight of which were
thefts, with a value of $1,384 stolen and only $15 recovered. December had 38 criminal
incidents, nine of which were thefts, with a
value of $733.05, of which $428.05 was
recovered. Officer Johnson added that
there is a rise in thefts before long vacations
because everything gets packed away and
then is left at home, making it hard to trace.
In the past, alcohol and alcohol related
incidents had posed the biggest problem.
Thefts and criminal mischief are the biggest
problems at the present time, although
alcohol related problems still make up a
percentage of total incidents.
Even with the amount of criminal incidents, according to officer Johnson, Lock
Haven has the largest clearance rate of any
other university in Pennsylvania. By
clearance rate it is meant that out of all the
crimes committed, half or more are solved.

Theft rise brings concern
In little oie "Lost Haven," one would think ail of your belongings will
be safe. No neetd to worry about the criminal element here!
Not necessarily so. Recently there has been a rash of thefts
throughout the dorms. Money has been stolen from both rooms and
receptionist's desks in the lobby.
According to the LHU law enforcement investigator, Jeff Johnson,
the number of incidents per month have more than doubled from
March 1984 to March 1985.
Yet even more incidents cannot be investigated because the victims have not reported it to law enforcement. Law enforcement does
not have any officers with ESP. It seems ridiculous to me that people
would allow another to get away with stealing his/her money. These
people are encouaging the thief to continue stealing.
One small incident may sem unsolvable to you, but to a trained investigator it will be an important piece to the overall puzzle.
It cannot be overemphasized how important it is to report these
thefts. Sitting around complaining about it has never caught a thief.
in the meantime, if you haven't been victimized, take extra precautions. Don't leave your door unlocked for any length of time.
Kim
Misconceptions put to rest
This reply is in reference to Mr. Gittleman's letter to the editor
which appears in today's issue. Our intention is not to attack Mr. Gittleman personally. We cannot, however, allow unfactual material to be
printed. If a judgement is to be made on an issue, let it be the individual reader who makes this decision.
1. The Eagle Eye staff does not, and will not, attack any letter to the
editor. Our reply to Matt Riley's article was simply in response to a
question he raised in his letter. He was looking for answers, we supplied them for him.
2. It is not stated in any document that the Eagle Eye be delivered on
a certain day at a certain time. We are funded to publish a newspaper
twice a week, which we always do.
3. The SCC does not own the newspaper as you claim. The SCC
funds the Eagle Eye.
4. Any graduate of Lock Haven University's journalism program is required to have a full understanding of 1st Amendment Law. The use of
this law in today's letter to the editor is way out of context.
5. Mr. Gittleman does not work for us, he works for the Public Relations office. It is apparent that he knows very little about Public Relations. PR releases never receive by-lines.
6. Mr. Gittleman claims that he has won "enough awards to fill our
office walls," before transferring from Temple University. If this is
true. Temple must be hurting. The grammar and semantics in the
original copy of his letter to the editor were atrocious. If Mr. Gittleman
is such an expert critic in the field of journalism, why did he change
his major to psychology?

Dear Editor,
Did you ever have the feeling that you

Ever wondered how many others there were
in your situation, especially if you happen
to be a newly returned student, or have
transferred from another campus? Believe
me you are not alone.
Almost twenty percent of the total enrollment of Lock Haven University is in the
same group. There's even one full time student in his sixties! That's why some of us
are forming an Adult Education Organization.
We have set several goals. We want to
form an information referral service, just
for us "older folks." We want to give the
adult student a forum to discuss our particular needs, especially with our peers. We
want to have our needs represented to
various agencies on campus. We are also interested in sponsoring social events aimed at
our peer group.
We will be holding an organizational
meeting this Thursday, March 21st, at I
p.m. downstairs at the PUB. Why not join
us!

Corresponding Secretary
Dear Editor:
or not have understood)
Fortunately for all involved, I am not active in the S.C.C. Yet I do have some
qualifications to recommend me to write
this letter.
One, so that you can't discredit my journalistic sense of responsibility (perhaps I
watched too much Lou Grant), I was a
journalism major at Temple University
before I came to LHU. I won enough
awards to fill your office walls, gentlemen.
Second, you say: "One can only wonder
what the results would be if all of our expert
critics would contribute. It's too bad that
all we can do is wonder." Forgive me for
repeating, but I do consider myself one of
your most expert critics.
And I work for you.
I am currently employed by the Public
Relations Office of Lock Haven University,
in Himes Hall. As such, I write a great
number of press releases on campus goingson. These are forwarded as a matter of
course to your offices, where they almost
always find their way -unaltered - into the
pages of this rag. My name, which is always
on the press release, never makes it into the
paper as a byline, despite the fact that I am
a student contributor as much as anyone.
For this, I breathe easier.
Let's talk about professionalism. And
apathy.
I hope you and your staff have jobs lined
up for graduation. I hope your dreams are
not elaborate ones; I hope graduate school
is in your plans.
It is consistently a pleasure talking with
you. Please spell the name right.
David B. Gittelman
I have read with continuing amusement
the saga of the apathetic students who
would rather complain than work. I have
often thought that quite a few people buy
your offer of, "If you're not working down
here, you can't complain. Either put up or
shut u p . "
Readers of the Eagle Eye might
remember me - I try and pick one cause
each semester, and bring it into the public
eye. This cause is usually the complete lack
of professionalism and journalistic responsibility of the Eagle Eye. So be it this
semester.
For what it's worth, I am a senior, a
psychology major, and a native of
Philadelphia. If you have not yet found
something with whigh to discredit me, I beg
you to but wait - you'll come up with
something.
If I were a person high up in the S . C . C ,
and 1 read that the newspaper I fund in toto
was not responsible to me in any way for a
commitment of delivery dates or times, I
would begin to wonder. If I were a member
of a student-run corporation who owned
the bloody newspaper, and that newspaper
was printing letters so they could come up
with concurrent, biting replies that surely
must discourage future imput, I wouldn't
wonder anymore.
I would be assured that the editorial staff
of said paper was so full of self-righteous
hot air, and dangerous in a position of such
power as the head of a publication with a
2500-plus circulation, I would terminate the
employment of those responsible faster
than you could say, "First Amendment."

Eight LHU boxers fight for spot in national tourney
The Lock Haven University Boxing Club
has qualified eight boxers for the Eastern
Collegiate Boxing Association (ECBA)
North Regional Championship to be held
March 22 and 23 at Lock Haven's Thomas
Field House. This is the fourth consecutive
year the Bald Eagles have played host to the
qualifying tournament. Eleven ECBANorth teams have qualified one or more
boxers for the competition.
The 12 weight division champions will
advance to the National Collegiate Boxing
Association (NCBA) Championships to be
held in Atlantic City on April 12-13.
Virginia Military Academy will, host the
NCBA's at the Atlantis Hotel Ball Room in
Atlantic City.
I h e Bald Eagles placed third in the 1984
NCBA team standings at the University of
California-Berkeley and came home with
three "All-American's" including its first
national champion in graduated 119
pounder Dave Washington, now a second
lieutenant in the U.S. Army.
Leading the "Haven" boxers will be
team captain senior Tim Frymyer, 112, who
is a three time All-American, but has yet to
win the national title. The heavily favored
Frymyer from Reedsville, Pa., has the opportunity to join an elite group of collegiate
boxers who earned four "All-American"
awards. The classy 112 pounder has set his
sights on the national title before he
graduates in May and enters the U.S. Army.
Lock Haven's second "All-American"
junior Steve Greber has dropped from the
156 pound class to 147 to increase his
chances at the national level. The
Philadelphia southpaw placed second last
April at Berkeley.
Lock Haven's third legitimate chance for
a national title is sophomore 165 pound
John Morrin, last years ECBA runnerup.
The tough Morrin, a Philadelphia native,
must qualify in probably the toughest
weight class in the Eastern's. Both Jimmy
Romanelli (Dickinson) and Terrance Green
(Army) are also boxing in the 165 pound
division. Green was runner-up to Greber in
last year's Eastern at 156 pounds.
Romanelli was a national 165 pound
runner-up at Berkeley.
5
•::)
Three time All-American Tim Frymyer and Sophomore John Morrin will vie for a spot
in the national boxing championships this weekend in Thomas Fieldhouse.
Coach Ken Cooper, former LHU "AllAmerican", is confident that Morrin has
the skills and motivation to win his division.
Morrin upset Romanelli in the "Salute to
Champions" Invitation at the Downtown
Athletic Club in New York City last
November. Morrin could move up to 172
and probably win the ECBA's, but that
would hurt his chances in the nationals,
concluded Cooper.
The "big" three, Frymyer, Greber, and
Morrin are ready and will all be seeded
Number I continued Cooper. The Bald
Eagles have also qualified Marcello
Cancelli, 132; Martin Breever, 139; Brett
Stevens, 172; Geoff Glenn, 180; and Renny
Dowdell, 190 for the 'open' competition.
All five boxers will also box 'novice' bouts.
They are Barrett Lebin, 156 and George
Fronjka, 190.
The top five teams in the ECBA-North
will be host Lock Haven, Central Connecticut State University, U.S.' Military
Academy (Army), Penn State University,
and Shippensburg University.
According to Dr. Ken Cox, associate
coach and the chairman of the ECBA, the
top boxers expected in each weight division
at the ECBA's are (profile):
112 - Tim Frymyer (LHU), 1984 NCBA
runnerup is highly favored. Onlv possible
challenger. Bob Borin (Toronto). The
veteran Frymyer is considered to be the best
collegiate boxer pound for pound in the
East. Frymyer has a 20-5 career record. A
national title would make Frymyer the most
productive LHU boxer in the modern 'era'
of boxing.
119 - Wide open and not a very strong
division. Lanky Robert Maminski (Shippensburg) is a slight favorite.
125 - Loaded weight. Senior John Calles
(CCSU), defending champion and 1984
NCBA runner-up, has edge. Kent Green
(Army) and Stan Hickman (PSU) are tough
challengers. Calles is a two time "AllAmerican".
132 - Kevin Counter (CCSU), last year's
champ and 1984 NCBA runner-up, is the
heavy favorite. Scott Clark (PSU) has been
impressive this season. LHU's Marcello
Cancelli, from Brazil, is a dark-horse.
139 - Well balanced weight. Freshman
Martin Breever (LHU) cannot be counted
out. However, Tate DeCray (PSU), Rodney
Smith (Army) and Jimmy Connors (CCSU)
could win.
147 - LHU's Steve Greber is heavy
favorite. Greber will be challenged by Manny Silva (CCSU). Greber decisioned Silva
last Saturday in the CCSU Invitational at
New Britain, Connecticut.
156 - Wide open weight. Veteran Steve
Brace (CCSU) is slight favorite. This is not
expected to be a strong division. Mike
Paolin (PSy) and Bill Miradle (Army)
could challenge.
165 - Loaded weight. Morrin (LHU),
Green (Army), and Romanelli (Dickinson)
are all national caliber. Morrin is a slight
favorite and is undefeated (4-0) this season.
172 - Wide open weight. Probably Joe
Pillari (PSU) and Mike Haydak (Army) are
the best. Boxer of the future in this weight
could be footballer Tom Pietzrak (Lycoming) LHU junior Brett Stevens is a darkhorse.
180 - Wide open weight. Jay Bontavich
(CCSU) is undefeated (4-0) this season, and
is a slight favorite. John Poncy (Army)
could challenge. Bontavich defeated
Dowdell last Saturday at New Britain, Connecticut. LHU senior Geoff Glenn is a good
boxer but is also a dark-horse.
190 - Not a strong weight. Either
freshman Renny Dowdell (LHU) or Tim
McCauley (PSU) could win. The best college 190 pounder in ECBA could be John
Stabinsky of Williamsport Area Community College (WACC). However, WACC
boxers are ineligible for national compietition because they are a two-year school.
HWT - Very strong weight. Last year's
ECBA champ and NCBA runner-up
Michael Regan (Shippensburg) will have to
be at his best to beat Army's Tony Emmi.

National tournament disappointing for Lock Haven grapplers
By Dave Walters
After the NCAA Wrestling championships came to a close, the Lock Haven
University wrestlers returned home with a
disappointing 32nd place finish and no AilAmericans.
The Bald Eagle wrestlers had six
qualifiers in the prestigious tournament,
but could only muster five wins. Dispite the
lack of victories. Lock Haven finished
ahead of major wrestling powers like
Nebraska, Army, West Virginia and Navy.
Head coach Neil Turner said, " I ' m
disappointed but not discouraged. I'm very
proud of the six guys that represented us.
They didn't obtain their goals. Our goal as
a team was to be in the top 10 and individually in the top eight."
The Eastern Wrestling League, in which
Lock Haven is a member, placed six
members in the top eight. Iowa led the team
standings capturing their eighth straight
NCAA tournament title and ninth in ten
years. In second was Oklahoma, followed
by Iowa State, Oklahoma State and
Michigan.
EWL champ Penn State finished a strong
seventh. Sophomore Nittany Lion Greg
Elinsky, who finished seventh last year,
ended up second this year. He lost a 4-3
decision to top seeded Morty Kistler of
Iowa in the finals. Chris Bevilacqua at 150
and Steve Sefter at heavyweight finished
fourth for Penn State.
The Huskies of Bloomsburg, who the
Bald Eagles beat twice this season in dual
meet action, finished a respective tenth.
Sophomore Ricky Bonomo won the 118 lb.
title with a 17-3 decision over Matt Egeland
of Iowa. His third seeded brother Rocky
lost in the opening round to an unseeded
wrestler.
For Lock Haven, at 118, Dicky Howell
faced ninth seeded Joe Melchiore of
Oklahoma in the first round. The Sooner
wrestler jumped out to a five point lead
against Howell with a takedown and a
three-point nearfall. In the second period,
Howell was put on his back by his
Oklahoma opponent and, in 47 seconds,
was pinned. In Howell's second match, the
first round of consolations, he faced Edwardsville's fourth seeded Tim Wright.
Howell came out on top 7-3 and went on to
meet Dave Cristanti of Princeton for an opportunity to place in the top eight. Howell
lost a 6-1 overtime decision after a 3-3 tie in
regulation.
Senior co-captain Tom Kreamer squared
off against third seeded and eventual runner up John Orr of Princeton. Orr craftfully handled Kreamer, 13-1. In the consolations, Kreamer battled Brigham Young's
Chris Humpherys but came up on the short
end of a 9-5 decision. That was Kreamer's
last bout as a Bald Eagle.
Freshman Brad Lloyd registered a 9-2
decision over Wright State's Ken Davis at
158. Lloyd went on to face the eventual
sixth place finisher, Ernie Blazeff of
Michigan State, in the second round.
Blazeff came out on top 9-2. Mark Litts of
Clemson was Lloyd's next opponent in the
consolations. Litts handed the young Bald
Eagle a 7-2 loss.
At 167, sophomore Jody Karam went up
against the eventual champion Chris Edmond of Tennessee and came up on the
short end of a 13-5 decision. Karam then
went on to face Northwestern's Mike Kraft.
The Bald Eagle wrestler decked Kraft in
5:04 to advance. Cal-Poly's Dan Remeco
put Karam's NCAA tournament to a halt
with a 7-2 decision.
Junior Greg Wykoff didn't have much of
a chance to show himself as he only wrestled one bout. Monte Wilcox shut Wykoff
out 9-0. Wykoff didn't get into the consolations.
Rick Petersen saw his bid for a national
heavyweight title slip away as he lost a 10-8
decision to Kirk Trost of Michigan in the
quarterfinals. Trost was eight seeded and
finished second to Temple's Bill Hyman.
Petersen met up with Iowa State's Darryl
Peterson in the consolations. The LHU
heavyweight fell peril to a first period pin in
1:40. Turner said, "Rick was over anxious
against Trost and he hadn't recovered
psychologically against Peterson."
Turner added, "I really appreciate the
student and University support. I also appreciate the financial support by the student
government. This support doesn't go unnoticed."

freshman gymnast Karen O'Mahen finished Ihe season as the top performer on her team.
Gymnast concludes fine year
By Karen Merlie
First year gymnast, Karen O ' M a h e n ,
finished the season as the t o p performerx>n
her team. O ' M a h e n was a competitor of the
all-around event throughout the season.
It all began for O ' M a h e n in Hickory,
Pennsylvania, when she was five years-old.
She took dance and ballet at a studio for the
arts. By the time she was in sixth grade,
O ' M a h e n was competing in state and tristate competitions for a private club. She
made the varsity team as a freshman, where
she was member two on the team until her
junior year when she was on t o p .
Lock Haven does not recruit for gymnastics, so O ' M a h e n was a walk-on. " I
knew it would be competitive, and I had a
lot to learn about being able to compete at
the college level," stated O ' M a h e n . She
wasn't out to prove herself, but she did
want to fit in and become friends with her
teammates.
" C o a c h Mel M a n n o is a good coach and
we like to have a lot of fun with her. She
works us hard to be in our best c o n d i t i o n , "
quoted O ' M a h e n .
This was the first season she went
through without her family rooting her on.
T h r o u g h o u t her career, her family has been
supportive with everything she is involved
with.
Even though Lock Haven's record o n the
year was 2-3, O ' M a h e n thought the team
had a fairly good season with room for improvement.
O ' M a h e n set her team goals on helping in
any way she could have d o n e , and personal
goals on making it t o Regionals. Regionals
wferen't in order for this year, but O ' M a h e n
is optimistic for her final three years at
Lock Haven.
T h e highlight of O ' M a h e n ' s season was
winning her first all-around competition in
the first meet of the season against Ursinus.
She didn't expect t o be number one on the
team all year. O ' M a h e n won two of the five
all-around competitions which events included the beam, floor exercise, bars, and
vault.
O ' M a h e n was plagued with injuries
throughout the season. " I had shin splints,
a wrist injury, and an ankle injury. I'll be
having surgery over spring b r e a k , " stated
the 5 ' - 8 " gymnast.
O ' M a h e n is planning to train all summer,
and will be looking forward to her
sophomore year. Lock Haven will be returning everyone next season according t o
O ' M a h e n , who hopes to be a gymnastics
coach in the future.
W h e n 1988 rolls a r o u n d , O ' M a h e n
would like to look back a n d be able to say
she performed to the best of her ability and
was a true competitor.
Football recruiting season underway
By Shawn Carey
A b o u t this time every year, people are
glued to the television watching basketballs
fly through the air or some are now just
beginning t o follow their favorite baseball
teanis going through spring training. But
for the Lock Haven University football
squad, the 1985-86 football season is literally in full swing.
H e a d coach Jack Fisher, who will begin
his eighth season at the Bald Eagle helm this
fall, along with his recruiters and assistant
coaches are well into the recruiting season.
So far, the staff has visited over 400 high
schools throughout Pennsylvania, eastern
O h i o , New Jersey, and southern New York.
Most of the traveling took place over the recent semester break.
O n - c a m p u s visits have also occurred.
There have been over 100 recruits visit L H U
on weekdays since the beginning of last year
and 120 on Saturdays, which began J a n u a r y
19. Almost 200 student athletes are still being recruited, 12 of them giving definite
committments on coming to " T h e H a v e n . "
A few of the top rcc-j-ts are Jersry S^r>Te
High standout running-back J o h n MacCalister, quarterback Dave Coolidge from
South Williamsport, and linebacker Phil
Stokes from Bethlehem Liberty.
Spring season practice is right around the
corner. Starting April 8 and running for
four weeks, there will be five practices a
week about two hours per practice.
According to Fisher, the Bald Eagles'
strengths on defense are in their secondary,
inside and outside linebackers, and special
teams. On offense the strengths are the
r u n n i n g - b a c k s a n d f r o n t line. T h e
weaknesses on offense are the center position and that the receivers's speed could
use improvement. On defense, he is concerned about the lack of depth on the
defensive line.
Coach Fisher also gave his views on the
future status on the P S A C , " I f a team
works hard enough a n d has a good
recruiting season, then they should have
high hopes of finishing high in the conference. It (the conference) should be better
than ever this y e a r . "
