Lock Haven commuter students could find themselves
chained out of parking area #9 on Monday as the federal
government threatened to close down the lot if the Commonwealth does not pay $100,000 for continued parking
privileges.
The Lock Haven Flood Authority, the federal agency responsible for building the dike-levee project and purchasing the parking area, had agreed to let the University
use the lot until May 1, according to Dr. Dean Phelps, vice
president of finance and administration.
This week, the federal government, who owns the lot,
demanded that the University pay for the privilege of using the lot, knocking down the land's assessed value from
$421,000 to $318,000. The University would paying a
quarter of the lot's assessed value to rent it for three
months.
The federal government has said that if the University
does not accept the offer they may chain off the lot, closing it to University use. Phelps called the government
move "a hell ofa dumb thing to do."
Phelps explained that the federal government had agreed
to cut the $100,000 rental fee to $70,000, but that both the
University and the former owner of the land, the Commonwealth Department of General Services (DGS), found
the offer unacceptable. Liability concerns over the lot inspired the government plan, said Phelps. The director of
the flood authority could not be reached for comment.
In a letter to the University's DGS legal counsel in Harrisburg, Phelps said "I'm sorry to confess that I continue
to be at a loss as to how anyone could conclude that three
months of parking privileges for the 150 car portion of the
lot here in Lock Haven is worth $100,000."
Phelps said the University and DGS have initiated a
lawsuit to "fight for the true value of the parking area."
The site had been appraised by DGS at $421,000.
Phelps said the new parking lot next to the PUB will be
more than able to handle the commuter cars when the old
area closes. Phelps said the conversion of the field hockey field to a new lot was "an example of inspired planning. I don't know what we'd do without it."
The University is currently working with city officials
to get the road along the railroad tracks re-zoned from one
way to two way to improve access to the new lot.
Construction of a second parking lot next to Zimmerli
Gymnasium is continuing. According to Phelps, the cost
of the project has exceeded the the original proposal, forcing the University to put plans for converting the Silkmill
property to parking on hold. The University had requested additional funds to cover the Silkmill construction, but Phelps explained that the proposal was rejected
by Gov. Robert P. Casey after it had cleared the state legislature.
Last semester, Phelps explained to the Eagle Eye that
construction on the Silkmill site was also being delayed
by the presence of asbestos and other chemicals. The site
must be cleaned up before construction can begin.

Yeakel revisits campaign life
"The best way to predict the future is to create it."
- former senate candidate Lynn Yeakel
by Marlene Kern
Eagle Eye News Reporter

Yesterday morning, Lynn Yeakel, the
Pennsylvania Democratic elect ballot
nominee for the November Senate election, spoke to a room full of students and
faculty in the PUB.
Close to a year ago, Yeakel and her
committee started the campaign that
would lead to one of the most expensive
senatorial races in the history of the United States. $15 million later, Lynn Yeakel
found out what it was like to lose as well
as win one of the most closely watched
campaigns of 1992.
Yeakel, who was defeated by Arlen
Sfjector, the 12 year Pa. Senate incumbent, said that although the November 3 loss was painful and sad it was
also exhilarating.
Yeakel emphasized that close to 3 million people voted for her. This consisted
of 47 percent of the voters, the same
amount of votes President Bill Clinton received in Pennsylvania.
Throughout her campaign, Yeakel met
many politicians, including President and
Mrs. Clinton, who in the last three out of
the four days of his campaign came to
Pennsylvania to help narrow the margin
of votes between Yeakel and Spector.
Yeakel also learned many "lessons"
throughout her campaign. She realized
the "tremendous spirit of citizenship" in
Pennsylvania that needs to be ignited.

She found a great deal of apathy and
changes in attitudes among the young
people today. She also realized that she
"picked a mountain to climb" by running
against Spector, a 25 year politician.
Yeakel said that the senate did not represent the population of the United
States, a fact that inspired her to run.
The former candidate also said that "we
need to have leadership based on population, like gender, race, or religion."
"The year of the woman is beginning,"
Yeakel said, "it's good to see 6 percent of
the senate is women rather than 2 percent." She said she was thrilled with the
women who ran for senate.
Although there were benefits, there
were also tribulations. Yeakel emphasized that money played too important a role in her campaign as well as
in other political campaigns.
In her 15 years of fund raising for
women, infants, and children groups,
Yeakel raised a little over $1 million,
while during less than one year of cam^
paigning, she raised over $15 million.
Yeakel said that the mass media treats
women differently. She said her age was
always given in articles, and comments
on her hair, jewelry, and nails were always being made. She felt that the mass
media always referred to her as somebody's "mom, wife, or daughter."
Through her rapid rise and fall of popularity, Lynn Yeakel will continue to tour
Pennsylvania and run, once again, for
Senate. "The best way to predict the future," Yeakel said, "is to create it."

Police Beat Trustees discuss campus difficulties
by Amy Carlson
Eagle Eye News Reporter

Eagle Eye News Reporter

Alcohol in dorms: Feb. 12 - Law En
forcement was summoned to one of the
residence halls. The officers reported to
the room and found two males of legal age
drinking beer. This case is being handled
by Student Life.
Security hazard: Feb. 13 - There was
a student found propping open one of the
doors to a residence hall. The student was
warned of the security hazard of such an
act.

Problems facing the University due to
budget cuts, changes in telephone preregistration, and new residence hall policies
were discussed at the council of trustees
meeting held yesterday in Akeley Hall.
Dr. Mary Pursell, vice president of academic affairs, addressed the effects of the
budget cut. The elementary education and
health science majors have been capped,
and the faculty is down in "teaching power," Pursell stated.
According to President Craig Dean Willis, the number of students attending LHU
this semester is down two percent in order
to meet enrollment goals.
The problem of students graduating in
four years was also addressed by Pursell,
who said approximately 25 to 27 percent of
students at the University graduate in this
amount of time.
Pursell said a survey is being prepared for
students who have been here for more than
four years to find out the reasons why they
have not yet graduated.
One reason it is taking students longer to
graduate is because fewer courses are being
offered. Pursell said it is hoped that enrolling fewer students will ease this prob-

Graduating
student opens
trustee position
by Lisa Thomas
Eagle Eye News Reporter
The student position on the council of
trustees will be opening later this semester as the current trustee, Hindi Sanders, prepares to graduate.
The student trustee guarantees that students have a voice on the council. The
trustees are responsible for the running
the University. They must approve long
range plans, purchases of $5000 and
building expansions. The council is also
responsible for insuring that the council's
committees and organizations correctly
finish their jobs.
Sanders said the trustees preserve Lock
Haven's institutional authority, protecting
the school the public image of our school.
To coincide with the authority position,
Sanders said, it's also a better way to get
your concerns addressed about the campus.
"You can't complain about something
if you're not doing anything about it," believes Sanders.
Sanders involved herself in every organization and every committee possible
in order to familiarize herself with the
campus.
Although Sanders initially involved
herself in numerous campus activities, it
is not a prerequisite to become a student
trustee.
The requirements to qualify for the position are to have a respectable GPA, at
least twelve credits and availability to
serve for a full year term. Trustees may
serve for more than one term.
"It's a great honor and a chance to
make a difference," said Sanders.
For more information contact Hindi
Sanders at 748-3061 or look for advertisements in the Eagle Eye and bulletins displayed throughout the campus.
The deadline for applications is March

lem.
As a result of a grant, faculty is also looking at new ways of restructuring certain majors, said Pursell. Teachers are concerning
themselves more with the best ways to
present courses in a certain discipline, stated Pursell.
Dr. Patricia Harris, assistant professor of
elementary and secondary education, informed the council of faculty concerns.
The faculty feels improved support systems
for students are needed, said Harris. Students are under more stress because of the
changes that are going on at the University,
said Harris.
According to Harris, faculty moral is low
due to a lack of promotions and the "teaching load becoming less varied and less interesting."
President Willis said if enrollment remains frozen, the variety of classes being
offered may improve.
Telephone preregistration was also discussed at the meeting. Dr. Pursell said she
is determined it will work better this semester.
Approximately 1000 fewer students will
be registering this spring, said Pursell. Incoming and transfer students will be registered in the summer, she stated.
According to Pursell, registration will
take place on five consecutive Saturdays,

with students being broken up into forty
groups. Eight different groups will register
each Saturday, Pursell said.
All students will be able to drop and add
classes from approximately April to August,
stated Pursell.
Dr. Linda Koch, vice president of student
affairs, addressed the changes made in the
visitation of and access to residence halls as
a result of two sexual assaults this past fall.
Non-University guests must have a visitors' pass, and desk hours on the weekends
have been extended, Koch said. Guests
from other halls must be escorted by a
member of the hall they are visiting, she
said.
Peep holes were also installed in residence hall doors over the Christmas holiday, she stated.
Steve Madrak, SCC president, discussed
the possibility of movies being broadcast in
the dorms on Channel 10. The Residence
Hall Association had wanted to show movies in the halls and is now working with
the SCC to make it possible for next semester.
According to Dr. Jerry Updegraff, vice
president of university advancement, the
alumni phon-a-thon gained $50,000 more
than last year. Out of 1300 pledges 50 percent were from people who had not donated
in the last three years.

Bentley coupons prompt investigation
By Jennifer Baer
Eagle Eye News Reporter
When a flyer containing coupons inviting
the public to Bentley appeared in the Express recently, it prompted an investigation
by the Lock Haven City Council into
whether or not the proper taxes were being
paid by the food services vendor at LHU,
the Wood Company.
According to Debbie Jackson, director of
public relations, a business privilege tax
must be paid when a business provides services or sells retail items.
After a few council members were called
by area restaurant owners who were concerned about the flyer, the council discovered that the Wood Company had paid
the tax, said Robert Bravard, a member of
city council and director of Stevenson Library.
One of the coupons found in the flyer invited the public to the recent Beach Party in
Bentley, where they could pay $4.95 for all
they could eat.
According to Jackson, Bentley has always
been open to the public and will continue to
stay open to people off campus. "The in-

vitation is always there," said Jackson.
However, the Wood Company will no
longer advertise off campus, stated Jackson.
Because the University is a state institution,
the Wood Company does not charge a sales
tax to those who eat in Bentley, she said.
According to Jackson, if advertising were
to continue, a sales tax would have to be
paid by those who eat in Bentley and are
not connected with the University.
A joint statement concerning the advertisement was released from University
Public Relations and the Wood Company
on February 12.
According to the statement, "It has been a
tradition for the food service vendor at the
Lock Haven University dining facility to offer theme meals, such as the international
dinners, throughout the year."
The statement made it clear that the
theme meals are offered "to provide Lock
Haven University students with a change of

pace from their traditional dining experience and to encourage interaction between the students and area residents."
It was also clarified in the statement that
"it was never the intent of either the University or the Wood Company to generate
substantial revenue from the theme dinners."
At the recent Beach Party dinner, there
were only five cash paying people present,
said Jackson.
None of those people
brought in a coupon, and they may not
have all been area residents, stated Jackson.
Bravard said he felt city council would
get some kind of reaction when he saw the
flyer in the Express, but he did not see the
problem as being one that could not be
solved.
"I figured it would get resolved fairly
quickly, the way it did," said Bravard.

Ninth graders get
a taste of coUege
(EDINBORO) - The State System of
Higher Education has awarded a $15,000
Social Equity grant to Edinboro University for its Partnership for Academic
Progress (PAP) program. Dr. Richard Arnold, program manager and assistant dean
of education, said the grant from the Social Equity Office will be used to continue the funding of pre-college experiences for ninth graders participating
in the PAP program.
PAP was begun in 1989 with seed
money from several corporate entities and
matching university funds. It is designed
to enhance higher education opportunities
for economically disadvantaged minority
youth from Central High School in Erie
and Brashear and Westinghouse high
schools in Pittsburgh.
"The chief objective of the program is
to create a support system for each student," said Arnold. "In order for programs of this sort to be effective, the intervention must occur at an early age."
The first-year activities for ninth grade
students include a weekend visit to Edinboro, seminars during the academic year,
and workshops for students and parents at
high school sites.

Bookstore forced
to lower prices
(SHIPPENSBURG) - These tough economic times have driven businesses all
over the country to become more competitive - and the Shippensburg University Bookstore is no exception.
In order to successfully compete with
their downtown opponent, Booksmith
Trading Co., the University Bookstore
may be marking new textbooks to a 20
percent margin down from a 25 percent
margin, according to University Bookstore Director Phil Mazzone.
Last semester a similar marketing
move was made by initiating a used book
margin decrease of 30 percent down from
33 percent.
Mazzone's goal is to gain the trust of
the students, and prove that they are providing students with competitive prices
on items from textbooks to school supplies.
"We (the University Bookstore) have
not given students sufficient grounds to
have as much confidence in us, because
prices of books have always determined
how students feel about a bookstore,"
Mazzone said. "But I think with our new
aggressive approach to managing and
buying we'll find ourselves regaining
confidence."
University
Bookstore
Committee
Chairperson Jen Adelman agrees that students have lost faith in the University
Bookstore. "Students automatically think
that Booksmith Trading is offering much
better prices, when really they may only
be saving $1 or $2."

Ground Hog Day - not only did we get
six more weeks of winter but a Clearfield
woman got a second chance at life.
Diana Dale, a second year nursing student at LHU's Clearfield campus, saved an
elderly woman's life at a local Pizza Hut.
According to Dale, she had just gotten off
work and was still in uniform when an elderly lady came into the restaurant asking
for help.
She followed the woman outside to find
another woman who was apparently choking and could not breathe. Dale said. Dale
immediately identified herself and pro

We need taxes - the campus candid -

Clinton is doomed. So is any other politician that tries to
fight the seemingly inevitable rise of spending. The facts
are simple. For twelve years taxes and revenues have gone
down while spending has gone up. The result is the current
$300 billion budget deficit.
The national debt, the dragon under the Capital's stairs,
has grown to more than $4 trillion dollars. Health-care
costs, one of the political catch phrases of the election year,
are continuing to rise. And, for a few more laughs, Social
Security could be bankrupt in 40 years.
So as the forty-something crowd is scrambling and the
twenty-something crowd is snoring, the country is rapidly
spending itself nowhere.
The problem is taxes. Ever since the 1700s, when the British came up with the crazy idea that America should have to
pay for the costs of maintaining its freedom, Americans
have been fighting taxes.
As a people we feel that we deserve certain things. What
we haven't figure out yet is that we can't get those things for
free.
The budget deficit is at $300 billion. That's $300 billion
that should have been taken care of by tax revenues. But we
hate taxes. So we pretend we can borrow forever, and keep
on spending.
Now President Clinton has proposed another one of those
radical ideas, like the one that the British had thought up
200 years ago. America has to pay for what it wants to
spend. It's a simple concept, but the man's been nailed to
the wall because of that little five letter word: taxes.
"Why doesn't Clinton just cut spending," cry the masses.
"You promised no taxes," they cry. Reality check. The nation is $4 trillion in debt. No amount of spending cuts is going to erase it.
That leaves taxes. No sane person would want to raise
them, but right now the budget is outside the realm of reason. Taxes are going to be a fact of life, or the entire nation
burned alive when its economic dragon finally breaks loose.
With this in mind, don't flinch when someone mentions
taxes. Relax, sit back, and think about what is said. Clinton's proposals may not be the best, but they are something.
They should not be doomed before they have the chance to
succeed or fail.

college graduations in the past, I
look forward to finally attending
my own.
Having attended LHU for the
past three years, I have noticed
that LHU, like most smaller colleges, tends to be somewhat conservative. Of course, there is nothing wrong with this. It is, perhaps,
a universal characteristic of the
smaller university.
That is why 1 was quite surprised
when 1 heard about the music
choice for the Spring 1993 Commencement.
I applaud the LHU Orchestra in
its bold and progressive decision
to do away with the usual graduation dirges of "Pomp and Circumstance" and the like, opting instead
to play "Louie Louie" as we graduates march onto the field (or into
the gymnasium, depending on the

weather).
And the recessional
they have chosen, Billy Joel's
"Say Goodbye to Hollywood"
really captures the spirit of "moving on to bigger and better things"
that we seniors share.
The repertoire they have chosen
reflects our diversity, our creativity, and our upbeat outlook on our
futures.
Theirs was a decision that required courage. It required vision.
It was a decision that will truly
add to the memories we will share
concerning our graduation.
Although some feathers are likely to be ruffled by their decision, I
for one am pleased. I truly think
their music choice is appropriate
and pertinent to the situation.
Bravo for your decision, LHU

William Penn experiences campus life
Friday, February 19,1993 EagleEye 5

Thirty-five William Penn High School
students tasted college life when they visited
the University Feb. 12 and 13.
Accompanied by seven teachers and the
principal. Dr. Lawyer Chapman, the students attended classes, met with LHU students and stayed overnight in residence halls
as part of a program to encourage minority
students to pursue post-secondary education.
The Lock Haven University-William Penn
Partnership has been established through a
$95,000 grant from the Pennsylvania Bureau of Social Equity. The partnership is
designed to provide students with an opportunity to work toward gaining college
credit, while teaching them good study habits and exposing them to cultural experiences in rural Pennsylvania.
"This program demonstrates the ability of
a higher education institution located in rural Pennsylvania to join hands with a large
urban high school to develop a program that
will mutually benefit both institution's programs," said Dr. Betty Schantz, the assistant
dean of the College of Education and Human Services.
Sixteen ninth grade high school students,
selected by William Penn faculty, will attend LHU for three consecutive summers.
After completing the program, students will
have earned 12 college credits and will be
able to enter Lock Haven University or one
of the other State System of Higher Education universities as second semester freshmen.
William Penn High School, which is comprised predominantly by minority students,
is "in the pocket of poverty," according to

school administrator and program coordinator Ms. Ronnie Collins. Several programs have been established between the
high school and local colleges, Collins said,
but the LHU Partnership is the first program which actually allows the students to
earn college credits while experiencing all
aspects of campus life.
"This could be a great environment to

Newman member receives recognition

A member of Newman, the campus ministry, recently received recognition for her
commitment by being named chairperson of
the National Catholic Student Coalition.

States. She must also be present at events

such as an International meeting and World
Youth Day where the Pope will be present.
Morrero is the first student from the University's campus ministry to receive this position. "It is a really big privilege to have an
LHU student represent all Catholic students
in the U.S.," said Morrero. Morrero, now a
senior, has been involved with Newman
since her freshman year.
Last year Morrero held the International
Liaison position on the Executive Board,
which is comprised of 5 national representatives who, in turn, represent 5 different

regions of the U.S.
This made her eligible for the chairperson
position because every year one of the five
representatives gets elected. Approximately 450 people attended the NCSC conference and, according to Morrero, all individuals have a chance to vote in the
elections for chairperson.
Morrero explained that there is an executive director who basically is the contact

McKenzie moves audience with
unique cultural performance
by Sherrin C. Beltran
Eagle Eye Features Reporter
In celebration of Black History
Month, Sherren V. McKenzie, a
creative expressionist, performed a
two-part show under the theme "A
Tribute to the North Star" Monday
night in the PUB.
McKenzie, an active, multiskilled dramatist, stressed the need
to celebrate one's differences and
history.
The 1993 Fellowship
Award
Recipient
of
Interdisciplinary Arts emphasized, "Be
proud of your mommas and your
papas ... Be proud of your legacy."
The first part of the performance
was devoted to slave ancestry.
McKenzie entered the room
dressed as a slave and opened with

an original monologue entitled
"Whut We lus and Whut We
Wuz," a piece inspired by former
students who were embarrassed of
their heritage. She then sang
"Swing Low Sweet Chariot" and
demonstrated call and response
chanting songs with audience participation through "Oh, Mary,
Don't You Weep" and "I know the
Lord Has Laid His Hands on Me."
She ended the first half of the
presentation with another personal
dramatization called "Bound or
Free ... I Wonder," in which she
shed her slave clothes to be only
seen in her modern-day African
American attire.
During the intermission, student
Terrance Bradford entertained the
well-attended event by re-enacting
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I

Have a Dream" speech.
The second part was dedicated to
"guiding lights," McKenzie saluted James Weldon Johnson by
giving her rendition of "Lift Every
Voice and Sing," and sung Langston Hughes' "The Negro Speaks
of Rivers." In addition, she presented her interpretation of Maya
Angelou's "On the Pulse of Morning."
In her finale, McKenzie received
a standing ovation after singing
Bette Midler's "Wind Beneath My
Wings," while showing slides
which depicted portrayals of African American culture.
Student LaShawn Monroe said,
"I thought she was very moving
and was impressed with the quality
of her performance. I'm glad I
came."

Carr pursues
dream of being
librarian
by Rick Bender
Eagle Eye Features Reporter
Hamburgers, pizza, and
chocolate are foods easily
found on college campuses —
but alu Gobi ?
This Indian dish, which
sounds exotic but only consists
of peas, cauliflower, and potatoes, was a regular item on
the menu of Reader Services
Librarian Caryn Carr.
Carr said she cooked Indian
and other exotic dishes for fellow students while working on
her master's degree in medical
librarianship at Case Western
Reserve University.
After getting her master's degree, Carr said she worked as
medical librarian in such varied places as Chicago and Altoona. Carr said she then went
to Penn State and Shippensburg University, working
as media librarian in both places.
Carr said that since she came
here, she has become involved
in the Lock Haven Community
Chorus.
Singing in local choral
groups has taken Carr farther
and farther away from her central Pennsylvania home.
"The Pennsylvania Choral
has gone to Germany, Austria,

Switzerland, and -France. We
were even invited to sing at No
tre Dame," Carr said.
Carr said she has also gone to
Windsor and London on trips
with the American Library As
sociation, of which she is an active member.
All this from an Ohio native
who has wanted to be a librarian
ever since her days at West
Branch Valley high school.
Although Carr said she has always had library work in mind,
she noted that her family also
had an influence.
"My father was an elementary
school principal and my mother
was a reading teacher. I didn't
want to teach but I wanted to be
involved with education in some
way," Carr said.
Carr said she is very satisfied
with her work. "I'm a career
person. I have no maternal instinct, even though I love my
nieces and nephews. Besides,
students are my family."
Concerning her real family,
Carr said she would like to make
a family tree to trace her lineage
to people who knew Thomas Jefferson and others who owned
part of Manhattan.
Carr said she would also like
to be able to entertain both fami
ly and friends more often. Who
knows? Maybe you will be the

waiting for his dark lady, played by Tracy
Weitzel. While watching for his dark lady,
he meets a poor beefeater or guardsman,
played by Ken Kaufman, and Queen Elizabeth, played by Elizabeth Tymkiw, who
is in the middle of sleep walking. As
Shakespeare speaks to these people he notices the cadence of their speech and the
beauty of their words. He writes these
words down for his own use in his plays
and sonnets. But during his meetings he,
through his brashness, insults all he has
met and finally is sent out of the palace by
the Queen.
To conclude the evening, the University
Players introduced Thespian

organized by student Michael White.
Gladiators
was a competition of improvisation between Team Apathy — Lisa
Fiackos, Geoffrey Harden, Amy Long and
Paul Muscarella; and Moon Pie Death —
Ben Clark, Jason Dwight, Katie Glessner,
and Kate Short.
The first competition was "What are you
doing?" This competition consisted of one
player doing a strange action and the other
player asking what they were doing. The
first player responded with a new action,
without repeating any previously stated actions. Here the whole series starts all over
again. The winner is determined by who
makes a mistake first.
In the second competition, called
"Styles," players were to act out a well
known story in another genre, such as opera or space odyssey. The third comjietition was "Blood, Guts and Phlegm." The
premise behind this competition was to
communicate a predetermined sentence
without using any of the words contained
in the sentence. Each group was then instructed to tell and extempwraneous story
that followed the mood of different selections of music being played. The winner
was determined by the audience, who voted for the group that told the best story and
followed the music the best.

Men run to attract opposite sex
Brad IVIendenhall
Last week I began running with my roommate. This was the first I had ever gone
running, and I soon found out I wasn't missing out on much. For one thing, running is
(I apologize to all of those who enjoy the
sport) stupid. My friends and I leave a perfectly warm building to run in the freezing
cold for two miles. The real irony is that
our final destination is the nice warm building we had started from. Doesn't this seem
insane? I am ruining a perfectly good pair
of sneakers and giving myself heart palpitations so I can go to the very same place 1
left!
Now you may be asking why I would do
such a terrible thing to myself on purpose.
Well, the reason for my running is the reason for everything else men do: women.
Yup, that is the motivation for just about
every male action in recorded history. We
do it to meet, attract or impress women.
Not for sex, companionship, or the need to
grow as a person by sharing one's experiences with someone else, but because
we are sick and tired of hanging out with
other men.
If you put a bunch of reasonably intelligent
men together in a room, they will suddenly

turn
into
a
group of cretins
who can only
speak in monosyllables.
1ST
MAN:
What do you
want to do?
2ND MAN: 1
don't
know
What do you
want to do?
REPEAT
They'll go on
like this for
hours, until one
brave soul finally comes up
with the idea (I
know
this
sounds wild and
crazy)
of
watching sports on TV. What sports do we
watch, you may ask. Any sport. My roommate and I have spent hours at a time watching professional wrestling. You heard me
right. Two reasonably intelligent people
who have about a million better things they
could be doing will watch grown men with
face paint and aluminum jump suits beat the
hell out of each other. Men will also watch

bowling, golf or
even pool on TV.
1 personally believe the male inability to communicate
goes
back to the stone
age when groups
of
cave
men
would go out
hunting so they
could find food
and get out of doing house work.
The group would
close in on a sabertooth tiger and
just when they
were about to
strike, one cave
man would say
something
like,
"Oo oo, yabba dabba cuum by ya yinky
dinky dumm de dumm dum." (Translation:
"Hey guys, I was wondering if you think
my new club goes with my eyes.") This
would startle the sabertooth away and the
group would club the loudmouth and bring
him home as dinner. So you see, when
guys get together they are afraid to talk because deep down they have an inborn fear
that they will become leftovers in some sort

of prehistoric refrigerator.
The only way for guys to actually do anything aside from watching sports or getting
drunk is if they do it with a woman. (When
I say 'it' I mean 'anything aside from
watching sports or getting drunk' not the
big 'IT.' I just wanted to clear that up for
those people with sick minds and, let's face
it, those people are most of my readers.)
The problem is that men have no idea how
to start a relationship with a woman. Because of this, men do everything in their
jrawer to make themselves more attractive
so females will ask us out and remove the
burden from our shoulders. It would be
nice if things worked out this way, but it
never does. Usually, something like this
happens.
MAN: Well, uh, I was, um, wondering if,
er, you would like to do something? Uh.
WOMAN: Like what?
MAN: I don't know. What do you want to
do?
REPEAT
Sounds pretty hopeless, doesn't it? Oh,
well, I'm going out for a jog. If you don't
hear from me next week, I'll probably be
frozen next to the road somewhere.
UPDATE: Since first writing this column, I
have met what may well be the perfect girl.
She loves wrestling.

Columnist asks for answers to basic questions
Jeanine Ross
Why ask why? My favorite commercial examines this philosophical question. Why do
hot dogs come eight to a pack while the hot
dog buns come six to a pack/ Why exactly
do fools fall in love? It's questions like these
that get my brain pondering over a few of
my own. Maybe you can help me out on
some them.
1. Why isn't an African American history
course mandatory as a general education requirement. World history means history of
the entire world and Africa is part of it.
2. Why do we have 3.0 students leaving this
University because of financial difficulties
but 1.6 G.P.A. athletes still here?

3. Why can't minority students shop in a
store in downtown Lock Haven without being followed by the clerk?

tain minority based scholarships, then afterwards refuse to be considered people of
color?

4. Why is it when an African American student shows pride in their heritage they are
called "too black?"

8. Why does it take Law Enforcement more
than five minutes to respond to an emergency but half that amount of time to bust
underage drinkers in the dorms?

5. Why do I have to argue about booking a
cultural event at this University when I pay
clo.se to $7,000 to go to school here?

9. Why is Black history celebrated one
month out of the year while I remain African American every day of the year?

6. Why is a woman considered bossy and
intimidating whenever she shows leadership qualities?

10. Why didn't any of the sororities on this
campus ask me to sign up for their rush periods?

7. Why will certain students apply to this
school as African American receiving cer-

11. Why did I pay close to $7,000 last year
for this school to put chains around grass

12. Why are you considered a radical for
defending the minority group?
13. Why do most males get upset if someone disrespects their mother, then turn

Go Phish for some smiles
Phish
I'm mad! A few people like my brother,
Steve, and my friend, Flern, have gotten
into my head and truly messed with my
brain. (Like it wasn't bad enough already?)
These cruel and inhuman people have me
listening to music that makes me smile
rather than music that lets me be pissed off
at the world. Can you believe this" nonsense?
Well, I might as well make the best of it
and talk about the new album by Phish.
These boy-os are your classic road-dogs,
following in the legacy of notables such as
the Grateful Dead and Hot Tuna. This has
made them masters at playing improvisational music along with the Spin Doctors,
the Blues Travelers and Widespread Panic.
However, Phish happens to be the best in
the bunch.
Their new album. Rift, fuses together
jazz, blues, rock, funk, reggae, children's
songs and other fine and silly musical stylings. The different styles blend together
extremely well and the, outcome is an effervescent dance music.
Trey Anastasio's lyrics are as odd and diverse as the music. In "Fast Enough For
You," he manages to put together a love
song that, though beautiful, doesn't regurgitate the cliches that seem to be a permanent fixture in those damn songs.
"My Friend, My Friend" is a wonderful
experiment with wordplay a la John Lennon. Its lyrical style tends to remind me of

"Happiness is a Warm Gun." It also closes
out interestingly with a chorus singing "My
friend, my friend / He's got a knife" repeatedly while the music fades out. Quite
an effect on the psyche.
Every song on this album is a masterpiece
of improvisational jams. There is many a
time when the lyrics stop and the band just
swings to its hearts' content. Other fine
tracks on Rift include, "Maze," "Weigh,"
and "Mound."

Hon W^isch
As 1 stated last week, I
ust saw my first Phish
^show on Feb. 11. I have
[been hooked ever since,
heir albums may be great,
ut the live performance
ruly captures the essence of
hish. Four hours of dancng to some of the most inricate and well executed
ams I've ever heard. Two
loints in the show really
tick in my mind. The first
ccurred when three large
each balls were thrown
nto the crowd. Each of the
usicians picked a ball, and
henever his ball hit the
rowd, he played a chord,
udience participation muic! Some wild tempos and
iffs emerged from this interactive trick.
The other truly memorable event
occurred when Trey, who usually plays guitar, took over on the drums. Jonathan
"Tubbs" Fishman, who normally beats on
the drums, pulled a vacuum cleaner on stage.
He started to sing a tune by Pink Floyd
founder, Syd Barrett (I think it was "Rats,"
I'm not sure). He then proceeded turning the
vacuum cleaner into a unique musical instrument by putting the hose to his mouth
and fighting with the suction. Truly psychedelic, truly wild.

Jagger's spirit wanders solo
Mick Jagger
Wandering Spirit
Well, you know how the old cliche goes
— some things get better as they grow older. This just happens to be the case with
the new CD, titled Wandering Spirit, from
the Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger. 1
believe this is his third solo album. Mick is
going to turn 50 this July and shows no
signs of slowing down. Mick is older than
our new president. Bill Clinton, and Jagger
still continues to rock 'n' roll.
Wandering Spirit offers 14 new songs,
and most of them are fantastic. The mix of
the tunes on the album are really good and
many of them have that classic Rolling
Stones feel. Also like Ronnie Wood's solo
album that was reviewed last week, Jagger
uses many guest musicians, including Flea
(who's real name, for all you trivia buffs,
is Michael Balzary) from the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Lenny Kravitz, Benmont
Tench, from Tom Petty's Heartbreakers,
on the synthesizer. Living Colour's new
bass player Doug Wimbish and long time
Stones associate Billy Preston on the piano, organ, and clavinet (go ask your professor what a piano, organ, and calvinet is).
The first single, called "Sweet Thing"

jef, starbimg

sounds a little bit like "Emotional Rescue."
Yes, Mick can still get his voice that high.
He performed "Sweet Thing" two weeks
ago on Saturday Night Live. Other great
songs on the album are "Don't Tear Me
Up" and the countryish ballad called "Evening Gown."
Mick proves he can still
rock with "Wired all Night" and the title
track is what 1 thought was rockabilly, '90s
style. The newest single will probably be
the real pretty ballad called "Angel In My
Heart."
I thought this album was a lot better than
Mick's previous solo album called Primitive
Cool. It has a wide variety of songs, and
all the songs except one were written by
Jagger. This album might be Jagger's most
successful solo album to date. Hopefully
Mick will still be making music until he is
60. You never know.
The album was produced by Rick Rubin,
who is most famous for teaming up Aerosmith with RUN-DMC. He also produced
albums by the Beastie Boys, Slayer and
hardcore rappers The Geto Boys. 1 wonder
what association Mick has with Rick Rubin,
because he certainly does not fit under that

Oxymoron Living Colour back
with third album

Since the late '80s, quite a few artists
have achieved success, 1 believe, because
they went against the stereotypes of their
field of music. These artists were like an
oxymoron and fell off the charts just as
fast as they jumped on. Examples of such
artists are Christian metal band Stryper,
and white rapper Vanilla Ice. One of the
bands who was unfortunately trapped into
this group was black metal band Living
Colour (even though Mother's Finest
were the first way back in the '70s). Well,
some of you probably haven't heard
much of Living Colour since "Cult Of
Personality" or "Open Letter (To A Landlord)," but they're still around and are
soon to release their third album. Stain
(Epic Records).
One of the great things about being part
of Toxic Radio is that I get to hear albums months before they're released. I'm
not exactly sure when this album will be
released (1 think some time in March), so
let this be a warning so you save up
enough money when it does come out.
To be honest with you, 1 thought
Living Colour was finished as a band
when I heard that bassist Muzz Skillings
left the band. But he was replaced by
Doug Wimbish, who happens to be one of
the best bassists around, and he just might
be the reason for Living Colour's more
daring change in sound.
Overall, this album is a lot heavier than
the other two, but it does have many other
styles as well, my favorite track on the album is "Auslander," which has this eerie,
spooky kind of sound to it while the heaviness drives you to the point where you're
not sure whether you should slam dance
or do the "Thriller" dance (The Thrillermosh?). Other cuts include "Go
Away," "This Little Pig," "Mind Your
Own Business," and the first single
"Leave It Alone."
This album is so good it makes Vivid
sound like a joke. This is probably the
best album of the year so far. And if you
somehow missed it, pick up their Time's
Up album while you're at the record
store. Stain has not come out yet, so be
sure to get it when it does.
category, but the work they did together on
this album really shows.
By the way, there was a mistake in last
week's headline. It said that Ronnie Wood
was the Rolling Stones' drummer. That
was incorrect (not my fault). Wood is the
rhythm guitarist.
Maybe the headline
should have said "Stone's strummer goes
solo" instead of "drummer."
Next week we'll switch from the Stones
to the Beatles when I review the latest album from^ Paul Mc(partney._ Stay tuned.

Field Hockey's Amy Dante pleased with her career
by Jake Hewson
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter
The amazing play of the University's
women's field hockey team, which gained
national honors this year is now a sweet
memory for its members. One member in
particular. Amy Dante, holds her field
hockey career here in a very high regard.
The Neshanic Station, New Jersey native
found out about Lock Haven, and the field
hockey program in a rather unusual manner.
"I was never recruited by Lock Haven,
but after a neighbor of mine told me about
the school my father and I decided to check
it out. At first I didn't like it but after meeting Head Coach Sharon Taylor, my
thoughts began to change. When we first
talked she wanted to know about me as a
person, and not just a player," Dante explained.
The Universities of Delaware, Maryland,
West Chester and East Stoudsburg were
other schools that Amy was looking into.
When Amy initially came to Lock Haven
she got much experience playing forward
line for the junior varsity team. Experience

which was"good for her and the other
younger players." She was glad she got the
playing time because when called upon to
play varsity, she was ready.
The right inner forward started for varsity her junior year and went on to gain first
team All-Conference honors.
"I think the biggest thing that drove me to
do well, was a letter Coach Taylor would
send to everyone on the team. It would
have in it a summer workout program, and
then it would go on to explain how she has
recruited many new players. It was like a
reminder letter for us to be in shape and
ready to play come pre-season," said Dante.
She would even hang the letter up in her
room as an incentive.
This past year Amy was on her way to
another great season of play, until a severe
injury sidelined her.
It was in the ninth game against Mansfield University, that she was charging to
the net looking to score on an initially
saved shot on goal. Instead of the goalie
kicking the ball out, she sent it straight up,
directly Rt Amy's head.
"I '.dd no time to react, since I was running right toward the goal!" The ball struck
her in the face with such forcethat it frac-

tured her eye socket and broke her cheek
bone in three places.
This devastating injury had a recovery
period of six weeks. Which, at the time,
would have been right when post season
play would begin. Her doctor and parents
refused to let her play in order for her to
heal properly.
"Even throughout the championships, I
never felt like I wasn't part of the team.
Even though 1 was not playing I would
give what ever support 1 could to the
team," said Dante.
It was the hardest thing she's ever had to
go through, but after receiving the support
she needed from her friends, teammates,
and fellow Tri-Sigma sisters, she was able
to deal with it better.
Even after only playing half the season.
Amy received a place on the second team
All-American list. "It was a major shock,
I couldn't believe it! My first thought was
that they just needed to fill one more position, so they took me," she said in jest.
When asked what her fondest memory
will be, she replied," The feeling I got
during the last ten seconds of the National
Championship game against Bloomsburg.
To hear the crowd chanting down the

time, and us being ahead 3-1, I'll never forget it!"
Amy, who has played field hockey for
eight years, wanted to thank the school, her
friends, her sorority sisters and especially
her teammates- all of whom supported her
during this past season and through her injury-

Dave Wilmot: a Bald Eagle who earned his wings
by Ron Newlin
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter

In 1992 the LHU Football Team did not
have one of its best seasons. They just
couldn't seem to get things going their
way.
While the team was struggling,
Steve Wilmot, the team's starting right
guard for the past three seasons, was having another all around solid year for the
Bald Eagles.
While a student at Springfield High located in Montgomery County, PA, Wilmot
achieved many athletic accomplishments.
He started three years of varsity football
on the defensive line. In his senior year,
Wilmot received a great deal of recognition and was named to the Senior First
Team All Suburban One and First Team
All Montgomery County.
The success he had in high school
gained gained him much attention from division three schools including Lycoming
and Albright Colleges.
Wilmot, believing in his own ability, decided to come to the Haven, a division 2
school, as a walk-on. After landing a spot
on the roster and being switched to the offensive line, he took advantage of this opportunity.
Through a lot of hard work and intense
training, Wilmot had earned a scholarship
by his sophomore year.
By the end of his senior season, thirty
three consecutive games as a starter later,
he had become team co-captain. He
earned a spot on the all PSAC second
team and won the Steven Jacobs award
two years in a row, an honor given to the
offensive lineman with the greatest overall
athletic and academic achievement. The

senior co-captain was also listed in "Who's
Who" among American college/university
students.
Football was not the only aspect in
which Wilmot excelled. He has one of the

highest G.P.A.'s on the entire football team
carrying slightly over a B average and
plans to go on to graduate school to study
further in the field Of Biology/Chemistry.
Wilmot, still having a love for the game

Dave (No. 66) blocks for the Eagles on a field goal attempt.

of football, will student coach for the Eagles this spring and next fall and would
also, someday, like to coach high school
football, preferably at his alma mater.

Boxing Club to overtake Field House
The LHU Boxing Club will convert
Thomas Field House into a mini Madison
Square Garden by placing a boxing ring
center stage. Tomorrow will mark the fifteenth anniversary of the club's annual
"Homeshow." The show includes boxers
from eight universities, three of which
rank among the nation's top five.
The schools slated to attend are; Central
Connecticut (CC), Penn State (PSU), Virginia Military Institute (VMl), Westfield
University (WU), Shippensburg (SU),
Army, University of Nevada-Reno (UNR),
and LHU.
UNR is currently the nation's top team
and they will bring a contingent of at least
four boxers, all with national credentials
under their belts. Two of these seasoned
fighters will step into the ring with LHU
boxers.
The event will be broken into two divisions, novice and open competition. Each
division will contain 10-12 bouts.
The novice division will be held during
the afternoon and is open to everyone at no
charge.
The of)en competition will commence at
7:30 p.m., and LHU students with , validated IDs are admitted for free. The show
promises to be an action packed affair.
To open the novice competition, Lincoln
Wooten will face VMI's Steve Lions in the
1471b weight class and become the first
LHU fighter to take the ring.
Next up for the Haven will be John Cox.
Cox will knock heads with PSU's Joe
Coombs in a 1391b bout.
The last LHU fighter in the novice division will be Dusty Durand, who qualifies
for open competition. Due to a limited
number of slots on the open card, Durand
will box in the afternoon. His adversary
will be Scott Karuzas from WU.
The open competition will begin with
the Haven's own Dan Carr going toe-totoe with WU's Don Brown. Carr is a senior and is competing in the 1901b class.
Boxing in the third bout of the open card
will be LHU's Josh Welty (1561b). Welty,
a soph., will do battle with Bill O'Rourke

ofSU.
Freshman sensation Patrick Woody will
face 2-time National Champion, Efren
Mendoza (UNR), in one of the evening's
most exciting fights.
Chad Minor (LHU) will put his 3-0
record on the line as he squares off with
PSU's David Justiniano. Minor, a junior,
is currently having a strong season and
looks to have a solid performance.
The Haven's hard hitting Vince Zaleski
will go to battle against UNR's Kevin Eppenger. This bout is going to be a war. Zaleski is coming off a KO in his last fight
and Eppenger is a National Champion and
3-time All-American. Zaleski will be moving up a weight class (1801b), for this fight.
LHU's highest ranked boxer, Jimmy
Torres, a National Runner-up at 1251b in
1992, will box SU's Chris Hagen. Torres,
an All-American, also makes a move up a
weight class to 1471b and is currently the
team captain.
Some other fights to look for are Jim
Cameron (Army) against Bill Bailey
(UNR). Bailey was a National semi-finalist
last year.
PSU's Robert Rodgers will fight Scott
Draper of SU in a 1471b bout.
All-American David Bruce (VMl), will
duke it out with UNR's Rick Jackson.
Jackson is a National Champion.
This year's "Homeshow" will be the
biggest collegiate boxing event in the
country.
Currently the Lock Haven Boxing Club
ranks among the nation's top six teams.
The club hopes to qualify 6-8 boxers for
the Eastern Tournament and this "Homeshow" will be a great opportunity to gain
valuable ring experience.
The man behind the machine is the boxing mastermind Dr. Ken Cox, Head Coach
of the club. Cox works his magic in a
small corner room on the second floor of
Zimmerli. He takes in small bands of college students each year and produces perennial powerhouse teams.
The "Homeshow" poses as an opportunity for Cox and his athletes to demonstrate their achievement to the University. So come down to Thomas Field
House tomorrow and get ready to rumble!

Howard scores a hat trick+2

The LHU Football team

Icers beat up on the Huskies
by B J. Poster
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter

The Bald Eagle Icers traveled to Bloomsburg in order to take on the Huskies Saturday night.
The venture proved to be a successful
one for the team. It was particularly eventful for defenseman Brendon Howard and
center Chuck Schweizer.
Brendon was brought on to the second
line of offense when regular left winger
Andrew Davis was sidelined. Brendon
stepped up with a "Gretzky" like performance.
He scored five goals and
Schweizer scored two. Together they accounted for all the Eagle's goals.
After compiling a sizable lead, the defense shut down the Huskies offense. Dur-

would like to welcome everyone to their
annual Winter conditioning featuring:
High impact
aerobics
&
running

ing the entire third period Bloomsburg
could only manage three shots on goal.
When the game came to a close the score
favored the Eagles, showing a 7-3 slashing
ofthe Huskies.
The Haven Icers came back the next night
for league play at the Penn State Ice Pavilion.
Once again the Icers were forced to play
short-handed. It seemed as if nothing they
did was right. Their-passes weren't connecting and their shots were just off mark.
Defensively, the Eagles played even
worse. Despite a heroic effort from goalie
Bill Brew, they allowed sevfen goals to be
scored.
In this sloppily played game, Brew was
forced to undergo the likes of an artillery
barrage and the Eagles fell 7-0.
For all you loyal fans, Saturday March 27
at 5:30 p.m. the Eagles play Penn State
West, at Penn State.

Eagles have impressive outing in Bucknell Classic

Smoker

and

McMichael

qualify

by Sean Wechtenhiser
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter
The men's and women's track teams continued to impress Coach Mark Elliston last
weekend by turning in a sound performance
at the Bucknell Classic. However, Coach
Elliston feels that his team would do even
better if the weather would cooperate.
"We are sort of staying even," said Elliston. "Our performances are not improving
much due to lack of quality training sessions. It's just hard for a track team to really train in a couple of gyms."
The women's team, sparked by the return
of All-American high jumper Patti Smoker,
showed no real ill effects of being forced to
practice indoors.
In her season debut. Smoker took first in
the high jump, clearing 5'4" and just missing at 5'6". This qualified her for the East
Coast Athletic Conference Meet and made
her an NCAA provisional qualifier.
Elsewhere in the jumping events, Tracy
Trapp continued her stellar season, taking
first in the long jump (17'1") and triple

Crosby

player

meet

jump (37'3"). Also grabbing places in the
jumping events were Natalie Jackson, who
took fourth in the triple jump, fifth in the
high jump, and sixth in the long jump, and
Leslie Kopp, who finished fifth in the long
jump.
The women were strong in the sprinting
events. In the 60 yard dash. Tiffany Thomas was third (7.3 sec.) and Tina Gilbert finished right behind her teammate, taking
fourth with a time of 7.4 seconds. Tracy
Trapp showed that she isn't just a star in the
jumping events by placing second in the
60m high hurdles, and tying for sixth place
in the 220 with her teammate Tina Gilbert.
In the middle distance events the women
placed in the top six in two events. Shelle
Roush dashed her way to a fifth place finish
in the 440, with a time of 64.0 seconds. Rachel Bawer grabbed fifth in the 880 with a
time of 2:34.
The 4x400 relay team turned in another
spectacular performance, sprinting its way
to a fourth place finish with a time of
4:26.1.
The men did most of their damage in the
middle and long distance events. Scott Susten took fifth in the 880 (2:02), and Steve

of the

Men's & Women'sTrack
Kravitz dashed his way to a sixth place finish in the 440. The men finished sixth in
both the 2 mile (Aaron Russell - 9:45) and
the 3 mile (Ron McMichael - 15:22).
The men turned in good performances in
the relays as well. In the 1 mile relay, the
team of Shawn Ivie, Mark Truman, Bo
Thurman, and Steve Kravitz ran its way to a
fifth place finish with a time of 3:33. The
two mile relay team paced itself to a fourth
place finish, running a time of 8:25.
The lone bright spot in the jumping events
was Glen Allison. He vaulted 6'6", which
was good enough for a second place finish
in the high jump.
"We picked up two more ECAC qualifiers
in Patti Smoker (high jump) and Ron McMichael (5000m)," said Coach Elliston. "We
had a good meet, despite the fact that we
were a little short in some areas due to illnesses and injuries."
Elliston hopes that his troops can continue
their good fortune this weekend when they
travel to Bucknell for a quad meet with
Bucknell, Bloomsburg, and Susquehanna.

Hoopers look to rise above remaining opponents
by Dan Murray
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter
The Bald Eagles suffered a major setback in their quest for a PSAC playoff spot
this past Wednesday night at Clarion as
they dropped a crucial game to the Golden
Eagles, 78-57.
The loss ended the Eagles two game winning streak and dropped the Eagles to 4-5
and third place in the highly competitive
PSAC-West two games behind Clarion,
which raised their record to 6-3 in the division with the win.
The outcome may have been decided
early on when Shon Crosby went down
with a knee injury with 15 minutes remaining in the first half. Crosby sat for the
rest of the half and watched Clarion build a
nine point halftime lead.
Todd Hawkins also was not up to par as
he played with a fever.
"It was a normal game until Shon went
out, said Coach Blank. "From there we
held close but then they built a nine point
lead at the half.
"We put Shon back in three minutes into
the second half, but he wasn't the same
from there," Blank continued. "Still, we
were only down by seven with about three
and a half minutes to play. We just made
mistakes and poor decisions.
"With Shon out, someone has to step up
and fill the void. Tim (Smith), Harold (Tyson), an Vic (Watkins) had to come up big,
but they didn't."
For the game. Smith, Tyson, and Watkins shot 3 for 12, 3 for 7, and 6 for 18 respectively. Crosby, though being injured,
shot 5 for 14. For the game, the Haven
shot an abominable 31.9 percent from the
field, including 2 for 13 from downtown.
"In my opinion, we turned the ball over
too much and we made mistakes at critical
points ofthe ball game,'-' said Blank.

The Haven turned the ball over 16 times.
"We were still in the game and had a
chance to win in my opinion," stated
Blank. "From five minutes to three minutes were down 60-53 and had the ball
three times with a chance to cut the lead to
five. We just couldn't capitalize," Blank
said.
"After that, things got a little crazy. We
were forced to foul, and I don't think they
missed more than two free-throws down
the stretch. They also hit a couple of
three's and that's how the lead got
stretched out to 21 points."
Clarion made 13 of 15 foul shots from
three minutes to play till the end of the
game.
Crosby and Watkins led the Eagles with
14 points a piece, and Smith added 10
points but hit only two of eight three point
attempts.
If the Eagles had defeated Clarion they
would have moved into a tie with the Golden Eagles for second place. Only two
teams from the division will advance to the
conference playoffs.
The Eagles put themselves in a position
to play for second place by defeating
Edinboro, 79-75, in an emotional game
played at Thomas FieldHouse last Saturday.
The game was close throughout with the
score 33-33 at the half. Both teams didn't
possess the hot hand in the first half as
Edinboro shot 37 percent and the Eagles
shot 31 percent.
The game was still close through the second half as the lead repeatedly changed
hands with neither team gaining an advantage until about five minutes remained.
With 5:26 left, the Eagles took a 66-62
lead and extended it to 69-62. From there
the Eagles didn't look back as they staved
off the 'boro.
Todd Hawkins played his best game of
the season as he pulled .dovyn 11 boards

and scored eight points including a thunderous dunk to increase the lead to 73-64
with 2:52 to play.
Crosby had a typical game with 34
points and seven points. Crosby was
named PSAC Player of the Week for his
performance against the 'boro and his 38
point performance against lUP.
Harold Tyson added 13 points and 11 rebounds and a highlight alley-oop from
Crosby in the second half.
The Eagles only shot 42 percent from the
field a trend that would continue in their
next game, which was a non-league contest
against LeMoyne from Syracuse.
LeMoyne put on a clinic on how to
shoot, pass and rebound as they whooped
the Haven, 91-72.
LeMoyne shot a torrid 67 percent from
the floor in the first half and 56 percent for
the game. LeMoyne also shot an incredible
78 percent from three-point land and outrebounded the Eagles, 42-27.
The Eagles were never really in it as LeMoyne jumped out to an 18-10 lead and
never really looked back. The score at the
half was 47-31 and the Haven had to play
catch-up for the remainder of the game,
something they weren't very good at.
The Eagles did have one bright spot as
Crosby played another solid game scoring
29 points.
The Eagles are now 12-11 overall and 45 in the division, but unfortunately, they do
not control their own destiny.
"Right now we have to win our remaining three games and hofie that Clarion
loses their three games," commented
Coach Blank. "We're not in a very comfortable position right now but we have to
just take care of ourselves and hope for the
best.
"It's going to take a minor miracle for us
to get in (the playoffs), but crazier things
have happened."

Eagles hope to finish up strong in PSAC
by Kevin Kovac
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter
They won one game, but they crashed
and burned big-time in two others. And,
well, that sort of week does not do anything for IJniversity women's basketball
Coach Frank Scarfo.
"We only play well in stretches, which is
real frustrating to me," Scarfo has said often during this season of close-but-no-cigar
contests for the Lady Eagles. "If the kids
could only put together a complete game,
we'd be in good shape."
But instead, the inconsistent women carry a record of 12-11 overall and 2-7 in the
Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference.
They did win a game over the past week ~
they downed LeMoyne College, a nonconference foe, 86-72 Monday night ~ but
that victory was sandwiched by twin blowout losses to PSAC-West rivals Edint)oro
and Clarion.
The defeats were ugly ~ and that's put-

Intramurals are in full

ting it mildly. Edinboro simply ran the
Lady Eagles out of Thomas Field House
last Saturday, 95-56, and homestanding
Clarion dealt them a nasty 107-67 loss
Wednesday night.
The complete whitewashes were surprising, however, considering the fact that
the women have perpetually stayed in
games this season. They had been beaten
by margins of 15, 19, even 25 points earlier in the year, but those bulges did not
grow large until late in the game.
It was a different story against Edinboro
and Clarion. The Lady Eagles had a knife
stuck in them early. They had no chance to
win down the stretch.
What caused the routs? There is no single answer. Even Scarfo, who could do
nothing to stem his team's fall last week,
has been at a loss to describe the women
this year. Inexperience. No patience. Anything can be mentioned.
The matchup with Clarion, the PSACWest's top team, was a microcosm of the
Lady Eagles' problems this season. For the
entire first half, Scarfo's squad appeared

ready to spring an upset. They trailed by
only one point at halftime, 37-36, after
leading by as many as nine. But they disintegrated in the second half, allowing Clarion to score 70 points while putting in only
31 of their own.
Good one moment, bad the next. It is the
recurring theme of the women's season.
Even in their confidence-building home
win over LeMoyne Monday, LHU suffered
lapses. They blew an eight-point first half
lead before coming from behind to win late
in the match, mostly on the strength of Marijo Martini's monster 22 point, 12 rebound
game.
But Scarfo knows that the uneven performances may end at any time because
every game is a new game.
So when the Lady Eagles travel to Slippery Rock for an afternoon contest tomorrow, Scarfo will be expecting a turnaround. After all, The Rock is one team
LHU did defeat this year, back on Jan. 30.

Cox^s men prove national
ranking at PSU Invitational
by Jason Orsin
Eagle Eye Sports Editor

The University Boxing team boxed successfully, defeating five of the seven opponents at the Penn State Invitational, last
weekend.
The Bald Eagle boxers performed as well
as expected at this juncture of the season.
"All seven boxers hung in there and boxed
competitively," said Coach Cox.
Freshman, Patrick Woody, 125, opened
up the event with a convincing victory over
Army's 1992 ECBA-Northeast Regional
runner-up, Joe Sowers.
Woody caught the cadet with a clean
straight left to score an eight count in ten
seconds of the first round. Woody continued to dominate the tough West Pointer
using quick handspeed and footwork to
evade the counter attack. Midway through
the third round. Woody scored another
eight count with a quick right and double
left combination.
Club leader, Vince Zaleski, moved up to
180 to box Pete Madrinan of Army at 180.
Zaleski caught the larger opponent with a
short left hook to the head, dropping the
game West Point boxer.
Referee Ken
Cooper stopped the contest midway
through the second round, moving Zaleski's record to 6-1. Cox commented"He is
improving rapidly and has national potential at 172."
Continuing his undefeated season, Chad
Minor
defeated
Shippensburg's
Bill
O'Rourke. After a slow start. Minor came
on strong in the second and third rounds
landing combinations. The contest was
stopped by the referee forty-six seconds

Boxing
into the third round. "Minor will be a
force to be reckoned with by the time of
the National Qualifier in mid March," said
Dr. Cox.
1991 National runner-up, Jimmy Torres
out-boxed Shippensburg's Chad Leisher
all three rounds of the bout. Torres used
his ring savvy to launch a counter attack
against the bigger opponent to seal the vie- "
tory in the third round. Torres will box at
either 132 or 139 at the Regional competition in hopes of securing a spot at nationals.
Josh Welty suffered his first collegiate
defeat against VMI's veteran boxer Eric
Yi. Welty had several clean scores but the
tough southpaw edged him in the second
and third rounds. "Welty has good potential," said Cox "He could be a strong
147 pounder by the end ofthe season."
Boxing veteran. Dusty Durand won a
convincing win over Shippensburg's Brian
Yocum at 156. According to Dr. Cox,
"Durand has excellent defensive skills that
Yocum could not penetrate, and he scored
with good body shots in all three rounds."
Newcomer,John Cox lost by decision in
his first collegiate bout against, VMI's
Herb Parsons, 147. After losing the first
two rounds Cox regained his composure
and came on strong with sharp counter
punching to win the third round.
Overall, the nationally ranked LHU
team is continuing to improve in preparation for tomorrow's
Homeshow.
