Debate ensues over arming campus police
Len Mahonski
Staff Reporter
The Council of Trustees is
planning to review the university's policy regarding the use
of firearms by campus police.
Currently campus police
arm themselves in emergency
situations only; the new policy, if approved, would allow
officers to carry firearms on
campus full-time.
The current policy requires
firearms that are issued to
campus police be locked up at
all times. As it stands now, a
dangerous situation or emergency must arise first before
the officers are able to unlock
their weapons and arm themselves.
According to Richard
Hepner, director of Law
Enforcement, violent crime on
campus has been on the rise
and the main objective of law
enforcement is to ensure the
safety and security of students,
faculty and officers.
"This change in policy, if
approved, would help to
ensure that safety," said
Hepner.

Lock Haven police are
still investigating a fight that
occurred in the early morning
on Sept. 9, resulting in the
injury of two Lock Haven students, one of which was still
in critical condition Friday.
Nicholas Kapusta, 20, a
LHU sophomore/junior from
Sellersville, was taken to
Geisinger Medical Center in
Danville for treatment of a
cerebral hemorrhage. Due to
his
extensive
injuries,
Kapusta was subjected to a
medically induced coma, a
step doctors take in order to
relax the brain and reduce
swelling and pressure.
"He [Kapusta's father]
and the mother are very concerned," said Chief Hocker,
who has spoken to the father
since the incident.
Jacob Abel, a senior LHU
student from Wind Gap, was
treated at Lock Haven
Hospital for less serious
injuries and is recovering at
home.
Abel and Kapusta have
been the only names released
of those involved with the
brawl, although according to
Hocker. there is one more victim, possibly six suspects and
four witnesses that are being
questioned in the investigation.
The confrontation took
place at 1:50 a.m. in the 400
block of East Church Street
and though Hocker was not at

Automated
External
Defibrillators (AED) are
becoming a more common
sight in public spaces. On
campus, they can be found at
Law Enforcement as well as at
all campus sporting complexes.
An AED is a portable lifesaving device that is either in a
stationary box or in a portable
case.
In the event someone goes
into sudden cardiac arrest, a
person trained in AED use
immediately administers CPR
and attaches the AED's adhesive electrodes to the patient's
chest. The AED then analyzes
the heart's rhythm and either
uses an electric shock to correct the fatal irregular heart
rhythm or tells the user to con-

1^

tinue CPR. If the heart is fibrillating, twitching uncontrollably, the AED shocks it.
This electric shock causes
all the hearts' muscles to contract at once and hopefully
restore itself to a regular beat.
In instances of cardiac arrest,
time is the most important
variable.
According to the American
Heart Association, a cardiac
arrest patient's chance of survival drops seven to ten percent for every minute without
defibrillation, and after eight
minutes death is near certain.
American Red Cross statistics
200,000
indicate
that
Americans die of sudden cardiac arrest every year, and up
to 50,000 of those deaths
could have been prevented if
an AED had been available.
The university has had an
AED for about six years.
Portable AEDs are in campus

New dean brings wealth
of experience to position
Ashley Griffis
Guest Writer
As the new Dean of Arts
and Sciences, Karen J. Harvey
has replaced Dr. Roger B.
Johnson and is ready to take
on the responsibiltics and
rewards that come with her
two-year term.
Harvey has been a member
of the Lock Haven Staff since
1989. When asked how she
enjoys her new position she
responded, "It is both challenging and rewarding, sometimes both at once."
With a reputable background - a bachelor's degree
with the highest distinction
and honors from Pennsylvania
State University, a master's
degree at Brown University
at
a
doctorate
and
Pennsylvania State University
Harvey appears to be an
obvious asset to the university's collection of deans.
As the academic head for
the college, Harvey's responsibilities include dealing with
personnel issues as well as thc
budget. But in many aspects,
her duties fluctuate daily.
Though she enjoys her
new position, the new dean
says that she misses teaching;
this is the first time in 20 years
that Harvey will not be in the
classroom. Harvey's passion
for her work and her students
will stick around in her new
position, though she refuses to
discount a return to life as an
instructor.

Uncle Albert's is celebrating its 10-year anniversary last evening. On
a regular basis, the bar has weekly drink specials and live music.

Uncle Albert's Restaurant
transformed a normally mild
Tuesday night into an evening
of live music, cheap drinks,
prizes and excitement last
night as they held their 10ycar anniversary party.
Owner Lenny Gugino
began planning this bash over
thc summer as a tribute to thc
establishment he has owned
and operated for an entire
decade.
"After 10 years, Uncle
Albert's deserved a party,"
said Gugino. "It's a way for
me to pay homage to live
music and good times."

"I've never done anything
like this before," said Gugino.
"Every year we have a Mardi
Gras party, but this is the first
time I'm celebrating our
establishment."
The party started at 9 p.m.
with happy hour from 10 p.m.
- 12 p.m., but Gugino and his
staff had been preparing for
nearly three weeks.
"The best way for me to
advertise was handing out
small slips of paper with the
event on it... so maybe when
a student reached into their
pockct for money for a cup of
coffee, he'd pull out the paper
and say, 'This might be fun!'"
said Gugino.
The anniversary celebration proved to be a success
with many different age
groups. The floor was overflowing with dancers, the bar
was packed with students and

adults alike, while the food
was constantlv grillin8 in the
kitchen,

"This gives students a
chance to come out and have
a great time on a normally
boring Tuesday night. They
were able to win hats, shirts,
coolers and glassware, have a
great time and hopefully gain
some new customers," said
Gugino, "Pretty much like a
Friday night in the middle of
the week."
Although Gugino is not
sure whether or not this will
become an annual anniversary bash, the Mardi Gras celebration will continue to be
held every year,
"Friday marked thc 32nd
anniversary of the Rush,

The APSCUF (Association

APSCUF meets monthly

Currently, APSCUF faculty union contract ends June 30.
Already, there are many issues
emerging in regard to faculty

and allowances of power.

impacted both faculty and students.
"Large classes can prohibit
the quality of education," said
Cloud. "We are forced to do it
and it takes away from the
learning experience".
An additional problem is
maintaining the quality ofeducation for students.
"We don't have teaching
assistants at Lock Haven
because it takes away from the
quality of education," said
Cloud.
An added concern that is
important to APSCUF is
salaries and benefits.
"Right now, salaries for
faculty are at the median. We
need better salaries to recruit
more faculty," said Cloud. "It
is important it remains at level

so that we can stay competi-

tive to compete with other universities."
APSCUF's local chapter
has already begun writing to
management to discuss those
terms and others that APSCUF
considers to be significant.
Management and APSCUF
will meet every month to
the
contract.
negotiate
However, State APSCUF
President Pat Heilman has
taken a more forceful position.
"When our contract ends,
our work ends on June 30,"
said Heilman.
APSCUF is also concerned
with the salaries and tenure of
coaches in addition to those of
instructors.
"Minimum salaries should
be negotiated," said Cloud.
"Also, management refuses to
make connection between
keeping a coach and their performance. This is missing
from our contract and should
be there."

around campus and police are
expected to and often do
respond within minutes.
"There's been an extra leap
in problems this semester,"
said Officer Tom Winters,
commenting on this season's
increase in violations.
In an effort to combat the
escalation, police have resorted to joint efforts in targeting
the offenders. The cooperation
of local agencies makes for
more resources and manpower
and has been made possible by
a recent grant by the state that
helps enable the region to better battle underage drinking.
Joint enforcement can be
requested formally in advance
if local police are aware that
they will need more officers
ahead of time or if local officers need immediate backup
for a particularly dangerous or
complicated incident.
Having been able to use
the grant money for a little

Winters, who Hocker calls
the "resident expert" on the
grant, voiced worries over the
efficiency of the grant money
now that such troubles have
grown.
Worried about threats of
vigilante reactions to unruly
partiers, Hocker would like to
see his efforts result in less
underage drinking and in a
level of self-control for those
who can legally drink.
One way to attempt such
deterrence is by increasing the
number of officers that patrol
the area in plain clothes.
Unable to spot the cop immediately, students give themselves away before having the
chance to flee. This tactic,
according to Winters, will follow the trend of the offenders
and will not subside until the
number of problems do. Says
Winters about these new tactics,
"People are going to have
to worry about going around
every corner."

true peace andprosperity. As religious people, it is our duty to demonstrate that
is not the case. Any use ofreligion to support violence is an abuse ofreligion."

*°

- Pope John Paul II at an interreligious assembly in 1999
Religion is a topic that people feel
passionately about, be it in a positive
or a negative light. Those of us who
have taken the time and interest to
formulate various opinions on this
issue feel inclined to fiercely defend
our views. Some may even defend
their ideologies to the death.
According to an Associated Press
article on Sunday, Pope Benedict
XVI recently addressed Regensburg
University professors and quoted
from some medieval text the words of
a Byzantine emperor. This emperor
stated that the teachings of the
Muhammad,
Islam's
Prophet
founder, were "evil and inhuman"
and called Islam a religion spread by
the sword.
These public words caused an
outrage among Muslims around the
world and especially among Islamic
extremists. On Sunday, Benedict said
he was "deeply sorry" about the hurt
that was caused by his verbiage,
according to an AP article posted on
Monday. He said the words came
from writings that did not reflect his
own opinion, but the pope did not
apologize for repeating the ideas.
Here is where the conflict arises.
Few Muslims and others in the

Islamic world felt that the pope's
apology was sincere. They are currently waiting for him to offer a better one - one that is more to their liking. The following is a statement
from the Mujahedeen Shura Council,
an organization of Sunni Arab
extremist groups in Iraq, quoted in a
Fox news article on Monday:
"You infidels and despots, we will
continue our jihad (holy war) and
never stop until God avails us to chop
your necks and raise the fluttering
banner of monotheism, when God's
rule is established governing all people and nations."
That's a fierce and rage-filled
comeback directed towards the
Roman Catholic Church. There have
been protests in South Asia and
Indonesia regarding the pope's
speech. In southern Iraq, some
demonstrators carrying black flags
burned an image of him. There is
even an investigation under way to
connect the murder of an Italian nun
in Somalia on Sunday to the angry
and bitter reactions of the pope's
address.
Truly, religion is something people feel strongly about. They die for
it. They kill for it. I commiserate with

the idea that religion can create a
strong passion within a person and
transform their lives. What I do not
comprehend, is how any religious
group would resort to violent words
and actions and genuinely think that
they could permanently mold the
world into their own sacred Utopia.
This is why religion is such an
intense topic. It is used as a tool to
inspire, to be optimistic and to give
people a purpose in life. It is also
used as an excuse to start wars and.to
kill people.
Holy war is an oxymoron. How
can any peaceful resolution come out
of the slaughtering of thousands of
innocent people? How can a love and
harmony in the world be won with
bloodshed and mass murder? How
can any religion promote such tactics,
when at the core of their beliefs we
find compassion, basic human kindness and understanding?
Pope John Paul II said at an interreligious assembly in 1999 that,
"There are some who claim that religion is part of the problem, blocking
humanity's way to true peace and
prosperity. As religious people, it is
our duty to demonstrate that this is
not the case. Any use of religion to

support violence an abuse ofreligion."
m§
We know it's never fair or just to
generalize any groups of people,
including religious organizations,
Let's look at some facts. The Roman
Catholic Church has a lengthy history
of religiously persecuting people.
The Spanish inquisition is an exampie. They expulsed Jews from Spain
and repressed the protestants.
The European Wars of Religion,
the Crusades and the Reconquista are
other historical examples of "holy
wars" that are frequently cited. We
have also seen Protestant Christian
"pro-life" bombers attacking and
killing employees in abortion clinics,
We have the Muslim jihad, an
Islamic term which has several meanings, one of which is an inward spiritual struggle to attain perfect faith. It
is entirely possible to find some history of violence in almost any religion one thoroughly researches,
All these acts, violent and gruesome, appall me at the depth of my
spirit. I question who is fighting
whom? Is it truly the Middle East vs.
the West? Christianity vs. Muslims?
Does each group sincerely trust that
their beliefs will reign in the end?

The harsh reality is that the conflicts
that religion presents will never disappear as long as there is this world
we live in.
The beauty in our planet is that
we are all different - culturally and
spiritually. This is also the curse of
the world.
Although we are united as
humans, we clash in countless ways,
religion is just one. Instead of loving
our neighbors; we despise them. We
intrinsically reject what is not real or
meaningful in our own hearts and
minds. We fear difference.
I do think that human beings as a
whole are inherently good. They seek
to protect and provide for their loved
ones and their community. But, we
ignore strangers. We cast aside those
we deem unimportant.
Each religious group is so thoroughly convinced that their philosophies ring true that they fail to.
explore the multiple possibilities that
life has to offer. When we can al
fathom the idea that perhaps everything we have ever learned could be
false and accept the many potentia
alternatives to our views, we wil
become a more harmonious human

The plight of undocumented workers

Laura Taylor
Cornell Daily

-

(U-WIRE) ITHACA, N.Y.
Imagine that you are a top-ranking
official in the U.S. government. You
have control over most sections of

government, as well as a strong influence over those parts of it that you
don't directly control. What would
you change if you were in this position? You could create a universal
health-care system or allocate more
funds to our nation's public schools.
You could put a moratorium on the
death penalty or withdraw troops
from Iraq. Or what about this option:
You could use your power to deport a
single mother who is struggling to
give her only son a better life in
America.
Well, if you were a member ofthe
current administration, you would
pick the last one.
The woman in question is Elvira
Arellano, who was born in Mexico
but has lived and worked in the
United States as an undocumented
immigrant for nearly a decade.
During her time here, she has also
founded "La Familia Latina Unida,"
an organization that provides aid to
undocumented immigrant families.
Recently, Elvira was issued a
deportation order, obligating her to
return to Mexico. The problem: Her

7-year-old son, Saul, was born in the
United States, and is, thus, a U.S. citizen. This deportation order would
force Elvira to leave her son, who is
currently being treated for ADHD.
So, instead of complying with the
order, Elvira has taken refuge in the
Adalberto United Methodist Church
in Chicago, 111., where she has been a
parishioner for years. With the federal government unwilling to enter the
church to retrieve her, Elvira continues to resist her ordered deportation.
But why does it matter that one
woman almost 700 miles away from
Ithaca, N.Y., is resisting her deportation, especially when there are 12
million undocumented immigrants in
the U.S., including 500,000 others
facing deportation orders?
First, Elvira is a perfect example
of the plight facing undocumented
immigrants in this country. Consider
why she came to the U.S. in the first
place. Her family consisted ofrural
farmers, living off the proceeds of
their crops for years. However, as
neo-liberal policies supported by the
U.S. government like NAFTA came
into effect in Mexico, Elvira's family
could no longer make ends meet off
theirfarming. Cheap agriculture from
the U.S., supported by government-

paid subsidies, flooded the Mexican
market and forced families like
Elvira's deeper into poverty. In order
to try to provide a better life for herself and her family.
Elvira came to work in the U.S.
Like so many others, she had to
sneak into the country because,
although neo-Iiberal policies have
made it easy for money and goods to
flow across borders, movement of
workers is still heavily controlled.
Elvira, along with the rest of the
undocumented population, is not
simply some lazy individual looking
for a free ride from the "generous"
welfare system in the U.S. Rather,
she came here to work so that she and
her family could lead a dignified life.
Another reason why Elvira is a
perfect example of the plight of
undocumented workers is that her
deportation is being done in the name
of"national security" and "the war on
terror." Since 9/11, the government
has dramatically increased its raids
on the undocumented immigrant
population.
The government and the mainstream media tell us this is being
done for our own safety, to "protect
us from the terrorists." While I want
our country to be safe just like any-

one else, I cannot understand how
deporting a working single mother is
helping us win the war on terror.

merit's refusal to release Hussein or
charge him is another step in a direction
this country shouldn't take.
Freedom ofthe press means that government isn't supposed to influence what
the media covers. Hussein's arrest clearly
contradicts that American ideal.
It's a guarantee that reporters and photographers are going to tread lightly in
their Iraq coverage from now on, knowing that the professional relationships
they've formed with insurgents in order to
present the multiple sides ofa story could
land them in an Iraqi prison.
If that treading lightly deprives the
American public of even one story or
photo that shows what is truly occurring

whole holding-the-govemment-accountable concept out the window.
It's a bit hypocritical to champion
democracy in the Middle East while urinating all over it behind closed doors.

Liberals never cease to
amaze me by what comes out
of their mouths. It is if they
do not live on this planet.
Don't get me wrong, I have
liberal friends and such, but I
would never want to see them
in any facet of state or
national government. The
ideas and speeches they come
up with are something out of
Mother Grimm's fairy tales
or something.
Ed Rendell our governor,
better known as "Fast
Eddie," is unfortunately one
of those people with the disease of liberalism on national
defense. At the National
Conference of Editorial
in
Convention
Writers
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania he
was asked a question on what
he would do about Iraq if he
were President of the United
States, God forbid.
He
brilliantly
first
responded by telling the pundits that asked him that he is
not running. Well thanks for
answering the question
nobody asked Ed. He was
probably stalling for time
before he muttered some of
the most idiotic words I have
ever heard come out of a public leader's mouth.
He said, "I would go to
Iraq and ask to be on TV

throughout the Middle East
and I'd say, 'We came here
with the best of intentions
and wanted to create freedom
and democracy for all and
3,000 Americans have died.
It is clear to me we have
become the main problem.
I'm going to ask the international community to develop
a peacekeeping force and
reduce our presence. We're
going to help you build houses, provide aid and economic
opportunity for your people.'"
Yay! Then we can all go
home and eat Lucky Charms
on fluffy pillows because the
world would forgive us and
we could start the "Hugs
around the World" contest.

Rebuilding a country after a
long war does not happen
over night. It took Germany

split the country into an eastern and western half.
As for us being the problem, again the left side errs.
The problem is the extremist

daily functions of life or freedom, I expect to see most
people choose freedom.
You can see this happening in Iraq now, if you can
cut through all the media
gloom and doom that provides nice fat happy ratings
and look you will see. A
recent Pentagon report stated
that violence may be prevalent in areas, but the attacks
are not targeting the Iraqi
government.
Why? Because the Shiites
are the new majority and do
not want to lose that again as
they had under Saddam
Hussein. The fighting is
mainly a vicious cycle of violence between Sunni terrorists and Shiite militias. Even
the repulsive Moqtada alSadr has ordered his 20,000
Mahdi army not to attack
coalition troops helping to
protect the government. A
couple of years ago before
the government was established, that would not have
been the case.
So again. Fast Eddie must
eat his words. Knowing
Rendell, that should be a
pleasure. I hope the next time
he has a thought or an idea,
that someone shoves a Philly
cheese steak in his mouth
that he loves so much.

Cold War a loss of funds
Joseph Melber
Guest Columnist

It seems to me that nowadays at the exact moment an

individual is identified as
"communist" or "socialist" he
or she is subject to public disgrace and the inability to run
for office. Even today, that
individual is incapable of getling a visa if they are a member of a communist political
party (by law).
The United States likes to
think of itself as the most
accepting country on the planet in terms of ideas. This may
be true if only because the
most accepting societies have
been destroyed due to wars
created by the industrialized
west, as I have mentioned in
my first article in this series
jbased on the library of
Alexandria. I, however, cannot
Jstress enough the importance
iof communism as a competing
idea with capitalism,
i Although communism has
for so long been seen as a system which emphasizes sloth, it
js best to look at it from a different angle. Communism is a
system which helps those who
cannot help themselves as
opposed to capitalism, which
so often throws these less fortunate ones to the side in an
jeffort to achieve high growth.
; It is true in fact that Helen

Keller, a woman who had to

struggle with multiple handicaps throughout her lifetime,
was a radical socialist later in
her life and helped many communist leaders become elected
in other countries. The reason
she fought for this was not
because of a hate for America,
but because her personal suffering directed her to a system
which assisted individuals
with disabilities instead offurther disabling them economically.
While I am playing the
devil's advocate in some
regards by being a "survival of
the fittest" type myself, I
would much rather compete
ideologically with the unacceptable idea of socialism than
to have to compete with its
apparent American replacement
Christian capitalism.
This is a concept which I
define as an economic system
relying on a religiously homogeneous population to correct
for social market failures.
The Cold War was the single greatest waste of government funds bar none. The Cold
War in effect was the largest
military mobilization in preparation for the end all apocalyptic war which has since been
portrayed in many films. The

-

truth of it is that the majority
of the expenditures were for
conventional weapons, such as
tanks and fire arms. They were
not for duplicating nuclear
weapons which trump the conventional ones anytime and
anyplace.
This was not only a great
loss due to the fact that most of
the revenue of a war time
boom was lost to weapons fabrication rather than to research
and development, but also due
to the greatest illegal distribution of all time of a single
model of a gun, the AK-47
which accompanied the collapse ofthe Soviet Union. War
time booms can be outlined to
you in any EconlOl course
and I recommend you take one
of these courses.
The AK-47 is a submachine gun favored by many
gun-users over even the M-16.
After the collapse ofthe Soviet
Union they went to anyone
who had a reason to kill at a
rock bottom price. The distribution heated all wars across
the planet in the same way the
creation of crack fueled the
drug trade in America.
Today you can open a
newspaper and see a picture of
a child involved in a civil war
holding an AK-47, despite the

fact that AK-47s have not been
fabricated for a number of
decades. If I was to extend this
column series of historical
events negatively affecting the
world today to a top twenty, I
can guarantee that the AK-47
would have a place on it.
Now it is time for the
moral of the story. Besides
don't shoot people and don't
let governments with military
stockpiles collapse, don't dismiss views because they contradict or even simply don't
parallel yours. I often see people going to great lengths to
talk themselves into their own
political ideology on a certain
issue rather than seriously
consider the other side's argument.
The truth of the matter is
that very few people will ever
be completely compatible with
a single and widely held view
point, even less with the two
majorpolitical parties. Believe
in what you believe in and
leave settling for presidential
elections.

Former Globetrotter to speak at convocation
Pat Bower
Staff Reporter
John Wilson, Sr., the
speaker at the Fall 2006
Convocation today, has played
an active role in America's history through his experiences
as an athlete, coach, and educator.

"He has been in touch with
a lot of history," said Sharon
Taylor. Director of Athletics.
"He has experienced and lived
the history of many groundbreaking events."
In 1946, "Jumpin' Johnny"
Wilson came to fame when

Wilson has had several

being elected to the Indiana

being named the greatest athlete to play basketball in

Besides his long list of
honors, Wilson is also highly
recognized for his healthy
relationship with his players
and the community.
"He always showed how
much he cared for his players
when he coached," said
Wilson, Jr. "He tried to make
their experience meaningful.
He never tried to take advantage of them."
Through his experiences
and accomplishments of athletics during a racially sensitive era, Wilson became a very
respected individual.
"He is true gentleman,"
said Taylor. "He brings civility to sports, which is something you do not see much
these days."

Cigarettes are no longer sold on campus
smoking is still permitted outside.

Tobacco sales halted
on campus at the
beginning of semester
Sara Gerber
Staff Reporter
In an attempt to prevent
a rise in student activity

fees. Student Cooperative
Council (SCC) President
Matt Wise has made some
changes on campus - among
them, tobacco sales in the
Parson's Union Building
(PUB).

"It was a financial decision," Wise said, commenting that it was not about
what is right and wrong,

what is good for you and
what is not.

The SCC had been selling cigarettes and smokeless
tobacco for years on campus
much to the dismay of the
Students
Pennsylvania
Working Against Tobacco
(PA SWAT).

PA SWAT started a petition last year and got over
600 signatures to stop the
sale of tobacco products on
campus. The group enforced
its petition by creating a

PowerPoint
presentation
about the harmful effects of
tobacco products.
PA SWAT presented its
petition to the SCC but was
told that they would vote on
it at a later date.
The SCC had already
been looking into the financial state of tobacco sales in
the PUB and Wise made an
executive decision to stop
sales as of May 22, 2006.
Wise said that selling
these products ended up
costing more money than
was being made. Before the
decision was made, the SCC
talked to other campuses
and found the same situation
elsewhere.
"The reason behind it
was solely for the finances
of the students," said Wise.
Through an effort of PA
SWAT and the decision of
the SCC President, Lock
Haven students will no
longer be putting their
tuition money towards the
costs of tobacco sales in the
PUB.

Head Coach Tom Justice is
very pleased to see the volleyball team begin to come
together. The Lady Eagle volleyball team competed in two
matches this week and came
away victorious in both, winning the games 3-0. The victories boost the team's record to
6-3 overall and 2-0 in the
PSAC West Division.

"We are forming a tighter
unit. This allowed us to use
more of our players," said
Coach Justice, adding that he

Kawakita the credit for the
On Saturday thc team battled Edinboro University and
left with a straight sets victory.
Prior to the match the team
worked on fixing their passing
game, which fell apart at different times during their previous game against Slippery
Rock University.
"We wanted to bring our
serving and our passing part of

the game under control. 1 think
in large measure we succeeded," said Coach Tom Justice.
"We had some very good,
focused practices leading up to
Edinboro. Our players were
very aware of their objectives,
and they worked hard to
achieve them."
Inga Kurgonaite had a
team-best 13 kills on .333 hitting. Thc junior recorded six
blocks.
Fabiana Gomez had 22
assists and Li YiZhi contributed to the victory with
nine kills and .900 hitting. The
senior also had three digs.
Freshman Christina Laury

an attack percentage of .493

against Slippery Rock.
"Against Slippery Rock we
had an extremely high team
kill percentage, over .400 in
the first 2 games and then an
incredible .567 in game 3.
That is extremely hot hitting,"
said Coach Tom Justice, crediting thc great average to the
great setting between Gomez
and Acosta and a good understanding of the opponent's
defense and where the team
needed to attack.
Metzmaier thinks both
matches were good because
the team was able to finish the
games and not give up.
"We played better on
Saturday." said Metzmaier.
"We started to work more as a
team and dominated against

season, although he is getting quite old, he has
only hit 24 home-runs, compared to the 45 he

After the MLB season ends m a couple
weeks, who will you consider to be the singleseason Home Run King?
For some people, that may depend on how
many homers Ryan Howard, of the
Philadelphia Phillies, ends up with. To others,
unless he hits over 73, there is no debate.
However, after reading this article, you may
have a different opinion on this issue
As of the 1998 season, Roger Mans held
the single-season record for most home-runs in
a season with 61. That year, both Mark
McGwire and Sammy Sosa topped mat mark.
McGwire finishing with 70 and Sosa with
However McGwire's «.rnpress.ve record of
70 only lasted until 2001, when Barry Bonds
hit 73. Now, with only 13 games eft in the season, Howard has 57, needing only five to surpass Mans previous record of 61. So. why
would Howard only need five home-runs to be

Oh, Philly fans, grow up...
more career
Sosa, right now,
homeruns than Howard.
Sosa and Howard are similar on some level,
though. They both play on sub-par teams tha
can only make it to the playoffs when each
player has a monster season.
Ryan Howard is as big as he was in tht
Minor Leagues, yes, but it is a proven fact tha
more Minor League Baseball players get sus
pended for steroids than players in the majors
So how do wc know he didn't juice up three
years ago when he was in the Minors.
1 don't care if you throw Bonds and
McGwire out of the record books, but Sammy
Sosa is legit! When Ryan Howard is putting up
the numbers Sosa put up for so many years
Phillies fans can come back and tell me he is
the "True Homerun King."
One final thought, I can remember the state
that baseball was in back in 1998. Baseball was
in a downward spiral. Sammy Sosa and Mark
McGwire put Major League Baseball on their
back and carried it. Major League Basebal
owes these two men a debt of gratitude. Barry
Bonds ruined that magic when he hit 73. I sit
here right now and I hope that somewhere in
the future Ryan Howard does break the record,
but until then, he will never be "The True
Homerun King."

The true home run king

1 love the Philadelphia fans. When Terrell
Owens came to town the TO jersey's were
everywhere. Then a year later he was the most
hated person in all of Philly and he was traded
away. Now people from Philadelphia found
their new savior, Ryan Howard the so called
"True Homerun King."
I agree that Barry Bonds has used steroids
and I agree that Mark McGwire used muscle
enhancers, however, Sammy Sosa has never
tested positive or admitted to taking any illegal
substances. He did use a corked bat, but he
mistakenly grabbed his batting practice bat for

hisreal one. He apologized for the incident and
how many people really remember the corked
bat?
Now for the numbers. Sammy Sosa hit 50
homeruns or more for four years in a row. Not
like McGwire and Bonds who peaked in one
year and then tailed off. Sosa also hit 30 or
more homeruns in 12 out of the 19 years he
played Major League Baseball. That doesn't
tell me he used steroids, that tells me he was
consist. He was so consistant that it gave him
588 homeruns, landing him fifth on the all time

With college admission
comes a lot of new responsibilities.
As freshmen, students are
all too excited that they are
moving out of the shelters of
home and into a world all
their own.
"I couldn't wait to get out
to school. I wanted to prove to
my parents that I could really
survive on my own," said
sophomore Blane Fenning.
What students do not realize is that their parents are

Fortunately, for the parents, freshmen are required to

Art forms merge in Crucible
Sara Gerber
Staff Reporter
The Crucible, Lock Haven
University's literary magazine, which isn't scheduled to
be available until mid-April, is
already in the works and new
ideas are in progress.
While the magazine has
published student submitted
poetry, fiction, creative nonfiction, paintings, photographs
and pictures of sculptures in
the past, new editors Kayley
Thomas and Jessa Hoover
seek to include critical essays,
excerpts from graphic novels
and comic strips in this year's
edition. Thomas and Hoover
also wish to emphasize the
definition of the word crucible, which is the melting
of substances,
together
throughout the magazine.
"I'm really excited to be
doing something so important
to Lock Haven," said Thomas.
"I think the Crucible has the
potential to represent every
student on campus, and 1
encourage anyone who is
interested to get involved
because ultimately it should be
a fusion of different art forms,
different talents, and different
ideas."
Hoover echoed a similar
sentiment.

"The whole process ofputting together an arts and literary magazine really combines
a lot of different talents from
many students on campus,"
said Hoover. "One ofthe benefits of having such a publication on campus is that it builds
community within the university, allowing students to share
their and creativity with one
another."
Art students involved in
the publication also have some
new ideas for this year's edition. Although it is still a work
in progress and nothing is set
in stone, art students wish to
create a journal-like design
this year, complete with a
hand-drawn font, doodles in
the margins, and blank pages
inserted throughout the magazine, giving readers the opportunity to actually use the liter-

The deadline for submissions is October 21st, but until
then everyone is welcome to
submit written material up to
ten pages in length.
"We are looking for anything that students like. If you
wrote it and you like it, send it
in," said Hoover.
Thomas also notes the benefits of being published in the
Crucible.
"Having your work published in a university magazine is a great resume builder,"
said Thomas.

■

Chinese Kitchen, which is
advertised as having the "best
Chinese food in town." My
expectations were raised by
this brazen claim and, to my
delight, were not to be dashed.
My initial reaction upon
entering Main Cheung was
glee at the selection. Main
Cheung's buffet tables feature
all of the Chinese dishes that
Americans love: lo mein, egg
rolls, sweet-and-sour chicken,
fried rice and many others.
There are also some unexpected choices, such as potato
skins, onion rings and potato
salad.
The food quality at Main
Cheung is outstanding. My
personal favorite straightfrom-the-buffet item is the
cheese wonton. Cheese wontons are no match for the
Hibachi grill, however.

At Main Cheung's Hibachi
grill station - which is included in the price of the buffet you are able to choose items
from a variety of meats, noodles and vegetables, and watch
as a chef grills them. This was
by far my favorite part of the
meal.
As if all of that were not
enough, Main Cheung also
boasts a desert bar and selfserve hard ice cream. The meal
was topped off, of course, with
the customary fortune cookie.

thing, don't worry; there is
plenty to choose from at
Variety Buffet.
Now for the moment of
truth: Which restaurant is better? There are several factors
to examine.
Price is not an issue. Both
restaurants offer dinner buffets
at a reasonable $8.45. Both
restaurants offer take-out,
although only Main Cheung
offers delivery. Both restaurants are decorated in Chinese
style, but Variety Buffet has a
fancier, more modern look.
Variety Buffet, as the name
implies, has a greater variety
to choose from.
Ultimately, it is a matter of
taste. If you are inclined to eat
healthier or more traditionally
Asian foods, then Variety
Buffet, with its salad bar and
sushi, is the place for you. If,

Charasmatic Alumni Publi shes Introspe ctive Novel
Brandy Rissmiller
Staff Reporter
Have you ever asked yourself the philosophical question
"Who am I?" If so, then
adding Eddie Dove's novel
"Who?" to your reading list
may be a good idea.
Dove, a 2005 Lock Haven
University graduate, wrote
"Who?" not only because he
sought to challenge himself,
but because he wanted to take
a shot at impacting the world
surrounding him in a positive
way.
"I feel that once one learns
who they are, their level ofself
worth is raised," said Dove.
"Once their self worth is
raised, they take more pride in
not only themselves but also in
their surroundings and everything pertaining to them."
Dove believes the benefit
of reading "Who?" is that
readers will get answers for
themselves.
"We have all asked at least
once in our lives the question,
'What is my purpose?' This
book is a way to acknowledge
those questions internally,

while avoiding the typical self
help format."
"Who?" is the story of a
young man, Khaliq, who is
trying to find out who he is
and where his place is in the
world. The reader follows
Khaliq through his questions,
thoughts, dreams and nightmares.
In the novel, Khaliq and
his romantic interest, Tiffany,
have a rocky and tumultuous
relationship, with neither of
them knowing the extent ofthe
importance and impact they
will have on each other.
Much of what Khaliq goes
through in "Who?" parallels
the experiences Dove witnessed while attending Lock
Haven.
"LHU played a huge part
in this particular work. The
first college sweetheart, drama
within clubs and organizations, the pressures of being
yourself yet still trying to be
accepted," said Dove, listing
off descriptions he has in common with Khaliq.
Dove lists his friends from
Lock Haven, classmates, faculty, staff and administration,
and his family as his biggest

Sept. 21, 22, and 23

supporters.
"I feel like a heavyweight
champion with a huge budget,
because I have so many people
in my comer. It is the best feeling ever," said Dove.
Lock Haven students are
proud of Dove and impressed
that he is not afraid to pursue
his dreams.
"He makes his dreams a
reality. 1 think everyone should
go out there and pick up the
book, to not only support
Eddie, but to find out who he
really is inside, since the book
is based on real life and real
situations," said senior Kristi
Moyer, a friend ofDove's.
Dove is currently a counselor/teacher at Glen Mills
School for Boys, which is a
placement for court adjudicated youth. Aside from his fullPhoto Courtesy ofEddie Dove
