Registration
Will Continue
As in Spring
Dispelling rumors concerning a charge in the registration
ircedoms for next semester, the
Registration Committee decided
(Inririg a teccnt meeting to continue with the same system used
for this semester. This will allow
students to once again chose the
instructors and times for their
classes.
Upperclassmen
will
have preference as to the choice
of c o u r s e s . Hopefully registration
will begin on the day following
Thanksgiving vacation and will
be comg^leted before Christmas

Pollution Termed
G r e a t e s t Problem
Early this fall the Pennsylvania Collegiate Press Ass o c i a t i o n conducted a survey of
Pennsylvania collegiate editors
to determine " t h e greatest problems and challenges facing America t o d a y . " Each editor was given
a list of 30 items and asked to
s e l e c t five areas which they considered "most important" and the
five areas " l e a s t important"Fifteen of the 25 editors voted for Pollution-environmental
health a s the most important of
current American problems. The
topic was a l s o selected in the
1970 survey in the first ranking
position.
Race R e l a t i o n s , Wage and
Price Controls, and Welfare Policies tied for the second place
with nine votes each. Race Relations moved up a notch from
its third-place 1970 rank. l>ie
voting indicated that the Vietnam
War dropped from second place in
1970 to fifth place in this year's
poll.
Pornography
and
General
Morality and Religion's Decline
got the top two slots in the
" l e a s t important" listing. The
same areas lead this category
last year in reversed positions.
Robert F . Stein of Clarion
State College supported his selection of Pollution as the leading
problem in America by saying;
"Our nation, and the rest of the
world for that matter, is on the
road to ecological d i s a s t e r . It is
>rue that people are more concerned today with the woes of the
earth than just a year ago, but
our government seems unconcerned not villing to make 'he effort
to save the land or just unaware
of the magnitude of the problem.
But something h a s to be done
soon."

Imagine, for a moment, that
you are a typical, happy-go-lucky
eight-year-old boy. Occasionally,
you hear your parents talking
about a " p o l i o e p i d e m i c . " You
don't know exactly what it means,
and you don't care either. Then,
one morning you wake up with a
sore throat. You grow progressively i l l . After a prolonged stay
in the hospital, you learn that you
will never walk again. What do
you do-resign yourself to the life
of an invalid or fight back?
This was the dilemma faced
by F'rank Hammerslcy, a freshman
this year at Ijjck Haven State,
when he was hit by the 1958 polio
epidemic. Hammers ley spent the
first nine months after his attack
in Mount Sinia Hospital in New
York City. There, he learned to
adjust to a whole new life s t y l e .
For a young boy, accepting a
wheelchair as the only means of
getting around is not an easy
task.
Upon returning home. Hammersley attended a local school
for
physically
handicapped
children. Everything went smootlily fnr awhile. Everyone at the
school
was handicapped; s o
there wasn't the usual pointing
of fingers and whispering. Then,
one rainy March day. Hammers ley
was leaving the school gymnasium
after an assembly program. The
wheelchair
accidently
slipped
and Hammersley fell. The result
was a broken leg, just above
the knee. Once again, Hammersley
had a golden opportunity to give
up on life, and once again he
he didn't " t a k e a d v a n t a g e " of
it.
Instead, he spent the long,
hot summer in a leg cast and
returned to school in the fall.
After attending school for a few
more y e a r s , Hammersley learned
from h i s doctors that if he would
undergo a s e r i e s of operations,
he might be able to walk again.
After his experience at Mount
Sinia, Hammersley was not everly
anxious to spend several more
away from home. However, he
decided that the possible reward
was worth the sacrifice.
The next three years at the
Children's Hospital in Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania were not the
most pleasant in his young life.
Two were spent in a body c a s t

The special meeting of tiie
SCC was called to order by President Gary Worthington. I'he sole
purpose of the meeting was to
d i s c u s s the revisions ot the re
vised Constitution and By-Laws
of the SCC.
It was first passed to change
the name of the student government of LHS to the Studeni Co-yperative Council Inc. of Lock
Haven State College. It has been
approved in Harrisburg for the
SCC to become incorporated and
will go into effect within the coming week.
A lengthy discussion was
then held concerning the motion
that the student government officers receive a payment for their
term of office, effective with the
next c o u n c i l ' s election. The motion was carried by a vote of the
Board of Directors. It will be decided by the Budget Committee
whether the payment will be in
the form of a check or a orotion
of the academic fees (tuition, for
cxamolel.
After brief d i s c u s s i o n s on
various other suggested amendments, the meeting was adjourned.

in &n attempt to straighten the
s p i n e . Kvery facility
in the
hospital was used lo find a way
for Hammersley to realize his
dream of walking again. The
attempus were to no avail; the
legs simply were not strong
enough to support the now husky
b do now?
At home, Hammersley went
to a local public high school
which was all on one level. This
came as a great relief to him
since he feared that he wiiuld
have to complete his education
through home tutoring. He was
only the second student ever tu
go through the high school in a
wheelchair.
After attending high school
for only a few months, fate
strijck once again. One day while
going to his b u s , Hammersley
slipped and broke his knee in
three p l a c e s . As he spent a
second long summer in a leg
c a s t , he often wondered why
someone had never thougl ? ^f

fall Hammersley was tau I,

How,
Hammersley
is
.i
college freshman, and he has the
typical fresh high hopes. Midway
through his first semester of
college, he is
contemplating
going on for his Masters and
doctorate degrees.Yet considering
his past, maybe these hopes
aren't s o far-fetched after a l l .

Field Hockey Team traveled to
E a s t Stroudsburg State College
on Tuesday. The game was played
on a muddy, wet, grassy field Conditions similar to what the
F.uglettes play on at home.
The first half started out
slowly with each team testing
the playing surface and s e e i n g
how the other team played. East
Stroudsburg scored the first two
goals of the game, but l.HS came
back to score with 10 minutes
left in the half; making the halftime score KSS 2, 1-HS I.
F-ast Stroudsburg scored again
at the start of tlie second half.
Tlie game came to somewhat of a
stalemate as neither team scored,
bul both teams were constantly
pressing for a s c o r e . The liagle t t e s ' spirit never died even
thougli ihe\ were down by the
score of .1 to 1, Then Bonnie
(Jroff scored for the E a g l e t t e s .
Hiis was the turning point of the
game, as LHS quickly picked up
momentum and willi a never give
up attitude turned a somewhat
contented Hast Stroudsburg team

Kelly Cromer tied the score with

Lock Haven State booters
fell to defeat at the hands of
York College on Tuesday afterncxjn with a close score of 4-3.
Vet LHS dominated the game and
lead in shots 14-12.
It is difficult to say what
would have hapRrencd had the
field been in better conditionit was muddy and covered with
puddles—and had there been two
officials instead of one. Still,
both teams played an excellent
game of soccer, playing to their
capabilities.
The Eagle booters put on
their usual show of team work,
aggressive play, good ball movement and passing and mainly, all
out running. They controlled the
ball at midfield and the fullbacks
did an outstanding job in the
backfield.

settled down to prevent any fuither scoring by E a s t Stroudsburg.
And s o it w a s , LHS came from behind late in the second half to
win; the final score was LHS 4,
ESS 3 .
The offense was aggressive
and always pressing despite the
constant challenge of getting the
ball through the mud to the goal.
The defense, realizing the offense's difficulty moving the ball,
played even harder, making many
key interceptions and clearing
the ball to the offense.
The junior varsity squad had
somewhat harder time. Tlie entire
first half was played with neither
team scoring but each team constantly app-lying pressure to the
other.
East Stroudsburg scored the
first two goals of the second half,
making the score 2-0. Although
LHS had the momentum and ability they could not seem to get the
ball at the right place at the right
time. However, late in the game
they put it together as Barb Collins scored, making the final
score ESS 2, LHS 1.

Letters to
the Eclitor
To Ihe Editcr:
Regarding my letter of 26
October, I stand corrected with
regard to my classification of Mr.
Heilemann's article as strictly a
" n e w s i t e m " . May I assure all
concerned that the oversight on
my part was purely unintentional
and I make full apology to Mr.
Heilemann for unjustified criticism in that respect, j retract all
of my second paragraph of the
aforementioned letter, with llie
exceptions of the lasi two sente n c e s . 1 still feel that he lacked
self-control in making some rather
harsh criticisms (e.g. referring tothe official as "Fxiinboro's 23id
m a n " ) . However 1 fully acknowledge his right lo make such comments within the protective confines of his " c o l u m n " . I also
feel that he should not manufacture --xcuse.s for a l o s s , no matter
how regretable it be. Once again.
1 must restate, he did have ihe
right to do s o , even at the expense of a compelanl olficial.
Respect fully,
