An order from Secretary of
Education John Pittenger to
"live within limits" casts its
shadow across the opening of
Pennsylvania's 14 state colleges and university this week.
Recentiidirectives from Harrisburg have ordered that, in
additio|. to the tuition fee
increases, the state colleges
are to proceed with submitting
plans for retrenchment in
1976.
According to local administrators, Lock Haven's plan for
a retrenchment procedure has
Ulready received Secretary
Pittenger's personal approval
and awaits confirmation from
his office. The plan, a combination of cuttmg expenses
and not filling vacancies, calls
for no retrenchment of any
personnel hired on a perm-

Football comes back to campus

September 15 marks the
opening of Lock Haven State's
Hubert Jack Stadium, where
the Bald Eagles will open their
1975 season against Lycoming.
After 32 years of playing home
games on the local high school
field. Lock Haven's team will
finally perform before fans in a
stadium of their own.
The last varsity football
game played on campus was in
October of 1942 when Lock
Haven defeated Shippensburg
36 to 0. At that time head
coach W. Max Bossert led
Lock Haven to a Pa. conference championship with a
6-0-1 record. Home games
were then beijig played at
McCollum Field, which is now
used by the soccer and women's lacrosse teams.
The first completed phase
of the new stadium was the

running track and utilities.
Bids were then received for
construction of the stands in
March of 1973. The original
bids exceeded state allocations
by $150,000 due to sudden
drastic escalations in construction costs, so a meeting was
called in Harrisburg to decide
what to do with the partially

completed stadium, college
officials decided to cut the
stadium's size from 5,000
seats to 2,600.
Hubert Jack stadium will
go under final inspection on
September 3, when it will
hopefully be completed. In
addition to the 2,600 seats, the

anent basis.
Instead of laying-off
permanently employed personnel. Lock Haven hopes to
meet its $670,000 ordered
budget cut by following three
alternative steps. These
include eliminating $100,000
worth of operating expenses,
voluntarily scheduling sabbaticals over summer, and not
fulfilling $460,000 worth of
vacancies.
College administrators
explained on Wednesday that
most of the operating expenses cut would be drawn
from the college's contingency
and retirement funds. They
also stated that the money
saved through summer sabbaticals is a result of not
needing to hire replacements
for professors absent during
summer sessions. They cited
the $460,000 worth of vacancies to be the expected number
of positions lost through resignations and retirement.
Vice-President of Administration Russell Milliken
explained the state ordered
budget cuts as "the difference
between what we have to
spend and what we ought to
spend." Adding "We're not
doing everything we ought to
be doing," Dr. Milliken mentioned items such as new
furniture, additional books,
and professional meetings as
extras which will have to be
eliminated.
While the immediate
effects of the budget cuts
aren't critical, concern is
growing over the long range
effects of limited spending
when our present supplies
wear out. Because retrenchment plans are still tentative,
further details will be
announced later.
Dr. Milliken noted that the
college is beginning the year
with no expectation of a
deficit. The state colleges are
awaiting action from Harrisburg on a proposed $5,000,000
cont. on page 4

CAS slams tuition increase
At an August 2 meeting
held in Harrisburg, the Commonwealth Association of Students denounced the recently
announced tuition increases
for the state-owned colleges
this fall.
Ted Hendrie, summer
executive director of the association, stated that the students
of the state-owned colleges
cannot continue to bear the
increasing burden of the already high tuition rates that
state college students are
facing. "We have one of the
highest tuitions for a state

college system in the nation,
and further increases are
going to close the doors for
many middle-class Americans,
said Hendrie. "Not only are
we facing further increases in
January, Uut reduction in our
faftilty, programs, and services. We are now paying
more and receiving less."
CAS has announced a
campaign to make the public
aware of further increases
before irrepairable damage is
done to the state college
system.

Many kttermen return

Booters face
tough season
By GARY BRUBAKER
Staff Reporter
Coming off a fine 9-4-2
season which saw the Lock
Haven booters of Coach Karl
Herrmann reach the NCAA
Division III Eastern Regional
Playoff fmals, the Bald Eagles
will be faced with the toughest
schedule in the 37 years of the
sport here at LHS.
Fifty varsity candidates
have been going through the
paces under the auspices of
veteran Coach Herrmann, who
has comprised an impressive
log of 60 wins, 28 losses, and
14 ties in his eight seasons as
head mentor here at "the
Haven."
The Eagles have just nine
days remaining in which to
prepare for the always rugged
alumni game scheduled for
Saturday, Sept. 6. The following Sunday, Sept. 7, a powerful University of Birmingham
squad from England will invade McCollum field.
In what promises to be one
of the biggest games of the
season, the LHS contingent
faces nationally ranked Penn
State on Friday, Sept. 12, at 7
P.M. under the lights on the
Nittany Lion's home turf.
AH East and All Conference
selections Roger Bemecker
and this year's team Co-Captains Bob Wright and Mark
Sildve head the list of returning Eagle regulars: Bernecker
led LHS in scoring last year,
tallying 11 goals and eight
assists. Wright added four
goals and two assists, and with
Sildve did a super job on

defense all year.
Also back for the Eagles this
season are goalie Steve Tan
ner, lineman Billy Bush and
halfback Jon Connor along
with fullbacks Mike McCartney, Sandy Bush, and Al Rice.
Tanner, Rice, and Sandy Bush
are all seniors while Connor
and Billy Bush are juniors.
McCartney is a sophomore.
Two frontline lettermen,
substitutes Mike Seigfried and
Keith Bradburd, also return,
along with Abe Stauffer, Leo
Barrett, Randy May, and
goalie Tim Fitzwater. Each of
these men saw varsity action
last season.

Weller goes after winning season
By RICH HEUER
Men's Sports Editor
A winning season has been
set as the main goal for the
1975 LHS football team. It has
been a long time since the last
one, 1965 to be exact, when
the Bald Eagles gridders were
coached by Jack.
Despite last year's record
of 1-8, this season looks
promising with the return of 34
lettermen, the addition of
eight transfer students from
Wesley Junior College, and
several good freshmen.
Quarterback Dave Bower,
a three year letterman, will be
again commanding
the
offense. Bower was ranked
third in the nation in NCAA
Division III passing. He completed 129-288 for 1,169 yards,
and upped his career total to
233-433 for 2,312 yards and a

supplemental funding.
Enrollment for this semester is temporarily listed at
2,400 , a slight increase over
last year. A last minute
increase in dorm applications,
however, has resulted in the
overcrowding of fifty students
into existing dorm space.
Administrators expect to resolve the situation once enrollment is finalized.
An additional charge
assigned to all credit hours
over the maximum load of 18
has been put into effect by
Sec. of Educafion Pittenger.
Pennsylvania residents are
now required to pay an
additional $33 per credit, with
out-of-state students being
charged $60 for each extra
credit. Vice-President of Academic Affairs Gerald Robinson
explains that the decision was
reached in Harrisburg only
last week, thus making it
impossible to inform students
through the mail.

The hydro and runabout
boat races, which begin Saturday, will feature among the
many contestants six national
champions from the eastern
seaboard and some western
states. Continuing through
Monday, the races include 15
classifications and will run
each day from 11:00 a.m. to
approximately 7:30 p.m.
The block festival at the
intersection of Jay and Henderson streets will feature
Nittany Rides, along with a
number of concession stands.
Starting at 6 p.m. on

Saturday, the parade will
travel up Main Street to the
five-way lights and then back
down Church Street. Nine
different divisions will be
judged.
An art show featuring
painting, macrame, and other
types of art will be held every
day in the park. Times for the
shows are from 1-4 in the
afternoon and 5-8 in the
evening.
Gosing highlight of the
weekend includes a fireworks
display at 10:30 on Monday
night.

Assisting Coach Weller
will be first assistant and head
defensive coach Jack Fisher,
defensive backfield coach
Harold Hacker, offensive line
coach Bryan Van Deun, offensive back coach Hubert Jack,
and J.V. coaches Bob Lane
and Dave Baker.
Commenting after the first
week of practice, head coach
Weller said "I'm pleased with
the progress we've made in

Anthony

the first week. The entire
squad reported back in good
physical condition and this
allowed us to move into more
specific offensive and defensive drills much faster instead
of spending so much time on
conditioning." He then added,
"1 think we're pretty well set
in positions except for one or
two places."
The season opener with
arch-rival Lycoming College
will be on September 13 at 2
p.m. at the new Hubert Jack
Stadium. This will be the first
varsity football game held on
the Lock Haven State campus
in 33 years.
