Due to cut, we must fight for education
Kenneth Newquist
Eagle Eye Editor in Chief_
Students are going to have to start fighting for their education if they expect the
state system's 1992 funding cut to be restored, local legislators said last Friday at
the University's .second annual Legislators
Day.
"If you don't get involved in the debate,
you're going to get what the governor proposed, or something very close to it," said
state Representative Mike Hanna, (D- 76th
District).
State Senator J. Doyle Corman (D-34th
District) and Arnie Kriner, representing
state Senator Roger Madigan were also
present with local and University officials at
the event, held in Price Performance Center.
"We're number two in the nation for the
wrong reasons," Corman said as he explained that state funding of the state system
of higher education had fallen to 48 percent
in 1992. Only Vermont is worse when it
comes to tuition costs, Corman said.
The reason the state system is in such bad
shape is because the budgetary pie for higher education has to be shared with the four
state-related universities, according to University President Craig Dean Willis. Staterelated schools like Penn State receive 25

percent of their funding from the state.
Come budget time, that means even less
money for the state-owned universities.
Money for deferred maintenance — projects that have been put off around the IJniversity — has also been cut, resulting in delays and $180,000 worth of costs that the
University has to cover, according to Dean
Phelps, vice president of finance and administration.
The only thing the University can do,
Corman said, is wait for a special funding
bill to be passed, as was done last year.
The problem is that all the money needed
probably won't be allocated, which delays
the start of the projects and leaves the University scrambling to cover any additional
costs.
The $500,000 worth of improvements
that must be made to conform with the
Americans with Disabilities Act and environmental laws also has Phelps worried.
Corman tried to allay his concerns, saying
that special funding would probably be
passed to cover any costs, as is the usual
procedure with federally-mandated programs.
The legislative day was organized by
University reader services head Caryn J.
Carr. Carr is the chair of the APSCUF
teachers' union's Campaign of Action
through Policy committee.

Children enjoy
festival activities
by Kelly Little
Eagle Eye News Reporter
The Pennsylvania State Education Association sponsored the 14th Clinton County
Children's Festival last Saturday in Thomas
Field House.
After a parade through the town, four to
five thousand children and parents attended
the festival. Over 76 agencies and organizations participated in this year's festival.
There were many activities at the festival,
including a petting zoo and face painting,
which was sponsored by the Millbrook
Playhouse. The Council for Exceptional
Children (CEC) sponsored macaroni necklace making, and the Pennsylvania State
Education Association (PSEA) did its part
by sponsoring seed planting.
Free information was offered by organizations such as Head Start, the Clinton
County Recycling Program, and the Kiwanis Club.
Performances of modern dance and karate
were also on hand. A magic show was another attraction at the festival.
The festival was a "nice community event
that's fun for kids and adults," Amy Spencer, PSEA president, and Amy Carlson,
PSEA secretary, said.
It was "good to get kids out on a Saturday
and to interact with college students," said
Mary Ellen Ott, a member of the CEC.
Brandi Buelow attended the festival for a
class and enjoyed seeing "the kids and
their families."
Dr. Jack Hossain would like to thank everyone on campus, the student body, fraternities and sororities, volunteers and everyone else who helpmd out with the festival
this year. It went great this year and he expects it to be even better next year, Hossain
said.

Students at the University are going to
have the opportunity to find out what it
would be like to be homeless for 24 hours
while raising money for a local shelter.
"The Homeless Experience," a program
developed by the McEntire Residence Hall
Association, will be held from 6 p.m. on
April 8 to 6 p.m. the following day.
Participants will be staying outside on the
front lawn of Russell Hall. They will stay
in cardboard boxes and will not be permitted to go inside for the entire 24-hour period.
The program is a fundraiser for the Horizon House, a local shelter in town. The
Horizon House is a non-profit home that
can comfortably serve 17 individuals for up
to 60 days each.
The shelter has served men, women, infants, toddlers, senior citizens, disabled
persons, minorities, unemployed adults,
those working but remaining poor, singles,
and couples since October 4, 1993. In order for the Horizon House to continue these
valuable services, financial support is needed.
The program has been established in the
hope that it will increase awareness of the
issue of homelessness in the Lock Haven
Community and beyond through newspaper
and television publicity.
Chawn Frontera, a member of the publicity committee, first became interested in
this type of program when a member of a

Former secretary
of defense lectures
at Shippensburg
( S H I P P E N S B U R G ) - Former Secretary of Defense Dick Cheney, who
spoke at Shipp)ensburg University's Heiges Field House on Tuesday, March 15,
emphasized the need for the United States
to concentrate more on foreign affairs.
There's been a temptation for us to turn
inward as a nation, to focus our time and
attention on things at home," Cheney
said. "But I think that's a very dangerous
proposition."
Cheney believes Americans have put
the U.S. defense last on their list of priorities. He feels the lack of discussion about
defense in the 1992 election, the belief of
the public that defense is not important,
and the electing of President Bill Clinton
on domestic issues proves his point.
"The world's a far more dangerous
place than people would like to believe,"
Cheney said.
Cheney expressed that the nation has
many "misinterpretations" about the defense of the United States.
Some of the "misperceptions" are that
the Cold War ended without our help, the
feeling that there is no threat to national
security, and the feeling that another
country should take responsibility for
helping other nations.

Student protests
against speech
(SHIPPENSBURG) - A Shippensburg
University student has accused the University of "prostituting itself to the right
wing of the Republican Party" by inviting
former Secretary of Defense Dick Cheney
to speak on campus on Tuesday, March
15.
Patrick Thompson, a sophomore at the
University, sent letters of protest to the
University's deans and department chairs,
as well as the local media, asking all
alumni to stop sending money to the SU
Foundation until Shippensburg University
President Tony Ceddia issues a public
apology. Ceddia declined to comment.
"This was a man whose department of
defense did nothing to stop the sexual harassment and discrimination of women in
the armed forces," Thompson said. "This
was a man who broke the civil, human
and constitutional rights of gays and lesbians serving in the armed forces, as well."
Thompson said Cheney's department
sp>ent over $24 million a year ferreting out
gays and lesbians in the military, against
their constitutional rights.
"I think (Cheney's) actions go against
what an institution of public education is
to uphold: multi-culturalism and the resp>ect of all p)eoples regardless of sex or
sexual orientation," Thompson said.

In the clubs: Fitness Club

by Jen Baer
Eagle Eye News Editor_

Are you tired of not being in shap)e? Do
you want to learn how to become more
physically fit? If you do, then the Fitness
Club is for you.
The Fitness Club, which currently has
approximately 20 members, is new at the
University this semester.
The club's main goal is to educate
people about how to become physically
fit, said Club President Rick Harris. The
group does this through sp>eakers and
organizing programs about fitness, he
said.
"Fat-To-Fit: The Summer Challenge" is
one such program being presented by the
club. Students who participate in the
program will measure their body weight
and percentage of body fat, Harris said.
They will then have five weeks to reduce
the amount of fat on their bodies,
according to Hartis.
The winners of the program will receive
gift certificates to the Bald Eagle Outlets,
he said. The program wHI begin next
week.
The club held a strength compjetition last
weekend. Male and female competitors
performed three different exercises with
weights proportionate to their body
weights during the comp>etition, Harris

said. The winners were those who could
do the most rei)etitions with the weights, he
said.
Awards were given for each separate
exercise in each weight class, and a trophy
was presented to the overall winner in each
weight class, according to Harris.
In addition to holding these programs and

competitions, the club also invites spjeakers
to inform its members about fitness.
Darin Pletcher, the assistant strength
coach at Penn State University, will sp>eak
to the group next week about strength,
gaining muscle, and losing fat, Harris said.
Rene Ebersole, the secretary of the club,
feels that the group helps people on
campus learn more about fitness through
the different activities and programs it

sponsors.
The club has a lot to offer to students at
the University, which is a popular school
for fitness and health science programs,
Ebersole said.
Students in any major can join the
Fitness Club.
The group holds its
meetings every other week. The meetings
are usually held in the Parsons Union
Building (PUB).
More members are needed at the club's
meetings to help organize its activities
and programs, according to Ebersole.
Officers of the Finess Club include
Rick Harris - President
Chris O'Neil - Vice President
Rene Ebersole - Secretary
Nicole Carminati - Treasurer
Mike Skillman - Head Supiervisor of the
Weight Room
The club's advisor is Mark Elliston,
who is also the track and cross-country
coach.

Students get tips on making it in the "real world"...

Journalism alumni visit University
by Alysia Moticha
Eagle Eye News Reporter
All students are concerned about their futures, and journalism majors are no exception. That's why journalism alumni were invited to the University to discuss various
asp)ects about their jobs at the .'Mumni Reunion/Workshop held this past Saturday in
the Parsons Union Building (PUB).
From her past experiences at conventions, p)eople have always said it's not what
you know, but who you know, said Susan
Heintzelman, president of the Society for
Collegiate Journalists (SCJ). "This was one
way of making contacts," she said.
During the day, a variety of seminars
were held on such topics as television and
radio broadcasting, public relations, different reporting and interviewing styles, and
options after graduation. Students could attend any of the workshops while at the same
time get acquainted with the alumni.
"This is really helpful," said SCJ member
Liz Woelbl, who attended one of the public
relations seminars. "We explored options
after graduation and got an overall view of
the PR field."
The students seemed enthusiastic, and he
really enjoyed the reunion as well, said Joe
Jones, an alumnus who conducted a seminar on sports reporting. "They [the students] seemed as attentive and interested as
any captive audience will be," he said.
Mock interviews were also conducted by

alumni in order to give students an idea
about what to expect when they get out in
the real world. Matthew Connor, alumnus,
felt the interviews went very well. "They
were informational as well as preparational," he said.
As part of the reunion, the Rebecca Gross
Awards Ceremony was held in the Eagle
Wing Snack Bar. Alumnus Leo Ritter was
named outstanding graduate but could not
be present due to health problems. Ritter
was the former electronic system technician,
who retired at the end of last fall.
"Leo always loved the students he
worked with," said Dr. Saundra Hybels, a
professor in the journalism department.
"He was a great teacher. I don't think we
can ever thank him enough for what he did
in developing the department."
"He was a straight-shooter who tells you
like it is," according to alumnus Brian Sanson i.
All those who spxike of Ritter said he was
known for his patience and understanding.
The recipient of the outstanding student
award was Kenneth Newquist, editor in
chief of the Eagle Eye. "I had a great staff
who let me do what I wanted to do," said
Newquist.
"This lets me know that all the hard work
was really worth it," he said: •
"It's been a real pleasure working with
Ken," sard Dr. Douglas Campbell, chairpierson of the English, philosophy and journalism department and Eagle Eye advisor. "I
always know things are getting done right."

The remainder of the day consisted of the
conclusion of seminars and mock interviews. "It added a different dimension to
the scene of journalism," said alumnus
Steve Coffman.
The alumni were all excited and willing
to help, said Heintzelman. "There wasn't as
much student interest as I had hop)ed, but
those that came got a lot out of it," she said.
The whole day was a "great service," but
many more could have taken advantage of
it, said Woelbl.
Many of the alumni were asking about the
next reunion, said Heintzelman. There
should be one held every year, said Jones.
"As a student 1 would have known more
about what to exjiect," he said.
It was a "powerful experience" and an
"emotional high" by having all of the
alumni together again, said Campbell in reflection of the entire day.

Student wants a smoke-free

Raub

To the editor.
The rights of non-smokers have become recognized on all levels
throughout the country. On the local, state and federal level, workers
are not allowed to smoke in their places of employment. And here, at
LHU, the same, with the exception of two places — the PUB dining
room and Raub Hall.
There is no reason why smoking should be allowed in a building that'
classes are being offered in.
Students should not have to choke on the smoke in Raub Hall every
time they have to get to their classroom.
If a person wants to smoke, they should do so outside the building, so
the smoke is ventilated, not inside where the smoke stagnates within the
confinement of the building and chokes anyone walking through.
If you can't smoke in any other classroom building, why should Raub
Hall be the exception? No smoking signs need to be posted and enforced in Raub Hall as they are in any other building.
As far as the PUB cafeteria ~ PUB administrators should consider
that many pjeople avoid eating there because of the amount of smokers
that gather there to light up and eat or study.

Dear Editor,
I am writing this letter in hopes of getting some action from it. 1 am
just one of the many students at LHU that use the p)eriodicals in Stevenson Library. I must say that the back issues of the periodicals are in
horrid condition.
Take for example New Scientist. Currently there are over 12 years of
issues in three piles. Each pile is about 18 inches tall, and none of the
piles have any order to them whatsoever.
It took me 25 minutes to locate just one issue that I needed an article
from.
This is just totally unacceptable. I am sure there are other magazines
in worse shape that I haven't had the "pleasure" of discovering yet.
Can't the library have someone spend a few hours a week working to
keep the magazines in good order? I would like a response from the Stevenson Library staff on this matter.

Council seeks new
student trustee
by Ana I. Gonzalez
Eagte Eye News Reporter
The Council of Trustees is seeking a new student trustee. Darryl
Walker, the current student trustee, is graduating this May. This
will leave the position of)en to anyone who would like to apply.
The- Council of Trustees is made up of nine members of the
community whose functions include approving capital expenditures in excess of $5000 at the University and reviewing President
Craig Dean Willis' leadership abilities.
The process of choosing the student trustee began on March 25
when a search committee of seven people received the applications. They will review the applications and essays, interview
the applicants, and narrow the field down to three finalists. At
that point the University's end of the search will be done.
The process will continue in Harrisburg, where a panel of five
people, consisting of representatives from the Department of Education and the State System of Higher Education Board of Governors, will do the same and narrow the field down to one. That
person will then be recommended to the governor, who will
make the final appointment.
The position, which has a term of seven years or until graduation, will be filled by a student with a good academic record
who can look at all kinds of issues with an open mind.
The most beneficial part of the whole experience was the interview process, said Walker, who served for a period of one
year as student trustee and will soon be looking for a job.
"You have to be able to jump from one issue to the next very
quickly," he said "The same thing occurred in the Harrisburg interview."
Overall, to see how the University works and to get to know
the people who make the decisions at the University was a great

Berklee grads show Signs of Life
Redefining the ever-widening boundaries of pop music with lyrics filled
with irony and originality. Signs of Life
is coming to the PUB Multi-Purpose
Room at 8 p.m. on April 8.
With a mix of original and cover tunes
of today's most popular music. Signs of
Life mixes everything from reggae to
rhythm and blues to funk to produce
their sound.
Signs of Life deals with serious subjects, such as international politics,
anthropology,^nd alienation of coming
home after college and, like many of
todays bands, they reach their audiences
through sarcastic lyrics.
The six-member band formed in 1989
at Berklee College of Music near the
end of the collge careers of five of the
band members.
Vocalist Tim Day, a native of Oklahoma City, joined the band when he
was in the
New England states.
Flaunting an impressive high school
record. Day was voted the outstanding
soloist on the alto saxaphone for the
tri-state area and performed in one of
Oklahoma's best jazz bands. He also
plays the baritone and alto and soprano
saxophone. The performer was also a
sports star, playing three sports and attaining All-State status in baseball.
Day was also salutatorian of his class.
After three years at Massechusetts Institute of Technology, Day met up with
and joined Signs of Life.

ch April Fools'

Private uves or policies ; joke is on u.
Teresa
Copenhaver
Would you like to have your personal life
displayed to the public? Then run for a political office and that is what will happen.
Every time a person decides to run for a political office, the individual's personal life is
turned inside-out for the public to see.
Anyone who wants to run for an office
must be somewhat crazy, especially in this
day and age. The public wants to know
everything about a politician's life, whether
or not the politician had affairs, cheated on
their taxes, or they smoked pot when they
were young adults.
What is the reason for knowing every intimate detail of a politician's life? Suppos-

edly, it is to see if the politician is corrupt,
ethical or moral. The problem is that what
does it really say about politicans if they did
have affairs? Does it mean that they are incompetant or that they couldn't have
changed?
Is it more important to know how politicians spent their last 20 years as husbands
or wives, or is it more important to know what
policies they supported in their previous years
in public office?
If you had to choose between two candidates, one who smoked pot when he was in
high school and one who voted to ban smoking. Who would you vote for, all else being
relatively equal? I would vote for the person
who smoked pot. Why? Because the person
may have committed a crime when he was a
teenager and was young and irresfjonsible.
But the other candidate voted to deny people's
right to smoke. Even though I may be in favor of not smoking in public places, I do not
believe that people should be ordered to not
smoke at all.
I believe that by looking at the past of an
individual can help to determine whether that
person is a relatively good person overall, but

you cannot take one or two instances and
categorize that person as being bad or
incompetent to hold an office.
How far does the public want to peer
into a politician's life? Will enough ever
be enough? Once a candidate has been
found to be an upstanding citizen that has
not cheated on a spouse or taxes and
didn't smoke pot, then what? Should the
public need to know what grades were
achieved in college, high school or even
elementary school? You may say elementary school, isn't that a bit too much?
I think that depends on how nosey you
want to be.
I think it is time people focus on the
issues and the pwrformance of the candidates. Primary elections are right
around the corner, do you know who is
running and what they stand for? If not,
why?
The news media is partially to blame
because the news media is better at reporting the gossip than at reporting the
hard facts about issues.
Do remember the 1992 presidential
election? The news sensationalized who
had an affair, who smoked pot, who didn't
pay their taxes, who supposedly lied, and
whose fault it was for the bad economy.
Personally, I would have rather heard who
was for which issue and why, who had a
plan to get the economy back on track
and how, and who had the best track
record in their previous years in public
service. Those issues are the real determining factors for who should be the
best possible candidate, rather than who
slept with whom.

Ah, the good fortune of writing for April
Fools' Day. This should be a national holiday. With the clowns we have running this
country, I would not be surprised if they
threw a big bash down in D.C. tonight. The
celebrants: Clinton, Gore, Rostenkowski,
Gephart and their underlings.
What if some massive April Fools jokes
were played on our country and/or our "esteemed" leaders? What would be the results? What would be humorous? Which
would have beneficial effects? Which would
put the screws to us?
For instance, if the White Water investigation turns up evidence that Bill Clinton committed felonies, impeachment would
probably ensue. That would be a cruel joke
on us all. Think about it for a minute ~ Gore
would be president. Not only does he make
boring people fun to be around, but as a
senator, he voted against every bill that made
our country prosperous in the 1980s.
Next, what if Joycelin Elders gave a
health-related speech to a sizable crowd
overseas. After we get done laughing at her,
we would realize that she's leaving an impression of America on these people. Ouch!
What if the Clintons' health care plan was
actually passed? Enough said there.
Now, what about an April Fools joke that
could benefit us. We could send our executives on vacation. We can fly Bill and
Hillary to Havana, with a stop at Miami's
airport to get a $200 haircut right on the runway. We can even fly Al Gore to the northwest for a tree hugging expedition. You
know, they all just might not want to come
back.
At last, humor. Isn't that what we really
want to achieve out of today? Imagine if we
sent George Stephanopoulos to tour an elementary school. I could see the headlines,
"Stephanopoulos mistaken for student in
crowd of fourth graders."
How about Senator Ted Kennedy claiming
that he's giving up drinking and philandering.
Ha ha ha ha! Yeah right! 's reconsider the
impeachment. If Bill was booted from offlce, we could find the Clintons in divorce
court. What would Hillary's grounds for divorce be? Bill's blunders in Arkansas and
D.C. cost her the presidency, not to mention
her "moral authority" being damaged. I actually can't take credit for thinking up that
one. I heard that on the radio last Thursday.
For those who were offended by what I
wrote, read what I say and mean, not what
you expect me to say and mean. There's a
difference.

Gwar combines great music with sick lyrics
by Matt Walsh
Eagle Eye Music Critic_

A Go-Go" is fantastic. The rest of the album
continues in typical Gwar fashion: a good
mix of musical styles to combine with lyrical
stylings of vocalist Oderus Urungus, who

Once again 1 find myself in another great
dilemma. 1 was going to review the new album from Sausage, which consists of the
original lineup from Primus, since we got an
advance copy of it at the station, but some
@#$&*! stole it. I'm in one dilemma, so
knowing my bad luck (especially with the
week I had) 1 find myself in another one. To
remedy my "problem," my friends at the
record companies sent me tons of new albums from some of my favorite bands. What
happened to the good old days where this
paper gave me almost an entire page,
*sniffle.*
Well, on the good side, one of the albums
I have been patiently anticipating came
slithering into my office, the fourth album
from one of coolest bands around ~ Gwar.
The new album is titled This Toilet Earth
(Metal Blade Records) and continues their
display of great music and sick but silly lyrics.
possesses a plethora of voices for the variSo 1 put the disc on and what is the first ous styles of music the band portrays in each
thing I hear? A horn section! The mix be- song.
tween the band and the horns on "Saddam
The first single is "Jack The World,"

which can already be seen on MTV. The
song has a big punk feel very similar to Bad
Religion, but conducted in Gwar's unique
fashion. "The Insidious Soliloquy Of Skulhedface" is almost a theatrical piece, obvisly suited for their live show. Many voices
are portrayed, including some opera-like
voices and one that even sounds kind of
like Popeye.
Other tracks include "Penis I See,"
"B.D.F.," "Krak-Down" ~ which was
featured on their The Road Behind EP —
and "Slap U Around."
As you can tell by some of the song titles, this album may not be suitable for
those of you who are easily offended, but
the lyrics are as hilarious as always. The
lyrics themselves are not as funny as
Scumdegs Of The Universe, but musically,
Gwar has improved.
For those you who have never heard of
Gwar before, they're not just a band, they
also put on one of the best live shows ever.
They dress up in costumes (like on the
cover) and put on a theatrical show to accompany the music. It is definitely an experience I highly recommend you try, but I
will warn you, you might want to stand/sit

towards the back, unless you don't mind
getting drenched in
Kool-Aid and milk.
And once again, the
theatrics can be just as
sick as the lyrics (and
usually are). They also
have a few videos out,
including the grammy
nominated "Phallus In
Wonderland" which
may be the sickest
rock movie ever.
So I have this neat
pile in front of me and
I have to figure out
what to review next
week. Hmm let's see...
we got Therapy?,
Rollins Band, Mucky
Pup, and too many
others, or maybe that
schmuck will bring
the Sausage CD back
Maybe I'll bring in
back after I've found
and
dismembered
him/her. Who knows?
Stay tuned...

Folk singer shares feminine experiences
by Ana L Gonzalez
Eagle Eye Features Reporter_
Singer/Songwriter Robin Greenstein presented her concert/lecture, "Images of
Women In Folk Music," last Thursday for
Women's History Month. She focused on the
fashion in which women are perceived in
traditional Anglo-American and AfroAmerican folk songs from both the male and
female perspectives.'
Her presentation began with a brief explanation of the three folk genres. Ballads,

life to studying and performing

which originated in the British Isles as a way
of telling the news of the day orally, are a
rather impersonal and objective storytelling
song.
Lyric songs are full of feeling and inner
emotion and can tell a story or just explain
feelings about someone's life. The third
genre deals with songs that are designed for
a specific function (i.e. to accompany the
work of sailors or assist children in learning
to count).
She concentrated on ballads and lyric
songs and explained how the tradition of
passing these songs on orally, without necessarily ever being written down, tended to
alter the songs as time went by.
The basic issues of regret, infidelity, control and confinement, loyalty, oppression,
justice and equality can be found in such
songs as "I Wish I was a Single Girl Again."
"The House Carpenter," "Gypsy Davy,"
"The Wagoner's Ud," "When I Was In My
Prime," "The Devil and the Farmer's Wife,"
"Dink's Song" and others.
Dr. Karen Elias, advisor for the Women's
Coalition said the concert both instructs and
delights. "It was a real nostalgic journey
backward that was very moving," Elias said,
adding that her Issues in Feminism class
deals with these very issues and "sometimes
it can be difficult."
Greenstein earned a B.A. in music from
the State University of New York at Stony
Brook, studying for a year at Trinity College
of Music and King's College in London.
She studied under and worked as an assistant
to famed folk performer/musicology pro-

fessor Hedy West.

Eagles continue to wait as,..

Winter's effects continue to delay season
by Amy Coles
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_
The Eagle cannot take flight. Instead of
wind beneath its wings, there is nothing but
snow.
Because of the harsh winter that dumped
over 80 inches of snow on the area, the
softball team has been unable to begin
playing their 1994 schedule.
The team officially began its season at the
Rebel Springs Tournament in Florida over
Spring Break. However, since that time,
two home games and one away game have
been cancelled, due to unmelted snow on the
playing fields. Still undetermined is the
status of the Eagles' home game against
Shippensburg on April 5.
Head Coach Kim Lindsey said that the
Shippensburg game may have to be played
elsewhere, if at all.
Also suffering because of the weather are
the Eagles' practices, which are limited to
what can be done indoors, even though there
were several sunny days last week.
"It doesn't even feel like there is a season,"

said shortstop Jess Brandt. "It's very
frustrating being a senior and having the
season turn out this way. But we don't have
any control over the weather. It's just really
frustrating."
Despite the havoc wrecked by Mother
Nature, the extra weeks with no games has
given the team some time to regroup from
their poor showing in the Florida
tournament.
After returning home with a 4-6 record, the
Eagles have many questions to answer
before embarking on their quest to repeat as
first place finishers in the PSAC-West.
The primary concern facing LHU is the
inconsistency with which they played their
ten games over spring break.
One reason for some of this early
uncertainty with the Eagles could be the
departure of LHU's first All-American
Softball players, Theresa Kovach and Jen
Horner. Kovach and Horner, who also
received All-Conference and All-Regional
honors during their collegiate careers,
graduated last year, leaving two large holes
on the team.
"It's going to be hard to replace their bats,"

Haven finds success at Hrst
outdoor meet of season

said Lindsey. "T (Kovach) hit over .500 and
Jen hit around .400.
"(Jen also) broke almost every batting
record we have here at Lock Haven, and T
was named the toughest player to strike out
(in NCAA Division II)."
Replacing Horner's and Kovach's gloves
has also been challanging for Lindsey.
Sophomore Tiff Amore has taken over at
third base for Kovach, a position that
Lindsey feels Amore is performing well at.
However, finding someone to play second
base. Homer's vacated spot, has not been as
promising. Currently, there is no set starter
for the position, although Lindsey has
narrowed her choices down to two freshmen:
Dana Deshler and Kari Myers.
"Nobody has been really consistant there
for us yet," said Lindsey.
Although the softball team's situation looks
as clear as mud, Lindsey is convinced that
her team can make it to the top of the
PSAC-West in 1994.

j|»;

"My goal every year is to go to states.
This year we have the potential to go
further, to regionals, if they all' work
together," said Lindsey.
A key to that success will be Brandt, who
hit over .500 in Florida and more
importantly, came through in the clutch.
"I think Jess has a real good chance to be
All-American if she keeps her errors down,"
said Lindsey. However, if early indicators
hold true, the road to such an honor may be
a bumpy one for Brandt. She committed
eight errors in the ten Rebel Springs Games
over the break.
Lindsey also feels that her two hurlers,
All-Conference senior Eileen Morse and
sophomore Jen Geary, are important to the
Eagles' 1994 mix.
The team is hoping the snow will be
melted and field conditions will be dry
enough to finally begin playing home
games by April 16, when they are scheduled
to take on I UP. In the next few week, the
Eagles will be traveling to Ashland, Ohio
for a tournament, and to Bloomsburg for a
game.

Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_
The men's and women's track teams
dominated last weekend's competition as a
combined 17 place winners ran away with
19 victories in their events.
The meet, hosted by Clarion University,
also saw Lock Haven grab 11 second place
finishes and four third places.
Although the meet served mostly as a
primer for this week's trip to the Colonial
Relays in Virginia, Coach Elliston was
pleased with his athletes' performances.
Freshman Jason Deval lance showed great
promise in his first competition of the year.
His throw of 195'-9" in the javelin was good
enough for first place, and narrowly missed
the provisional qualifying standard for
nationals.
Fellow freshman Kyle Waite also had a
stellar day as he grabbed second place in
the discus (130'-r'), and first in the shot put
(46'-9").
John Martin's winning jump of 19'-2-3/4"
in the longjump also highlighted the team's
performances.
For the women, Natalie Jackson leaped
35' in the triple jump and threw the javelin
112'-2"; both landed her first-place honors.
Tina Gilbert (27.0) and Melanie Helm
(27.2) combined for a one two finish in the

Playoffs are the goal as...

Kipp and company look to rebound after last year
by Chad States
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_
The 1994 version of the Lock Haven
University Lacrosse team will try to rebound
from a disappointing 1-8 season last year
and try to make a run at the PSAC playoffs
this year.
Lock Haven is loaded with talent and
experience on both offense and defense.
Deidre Kipp returns as the main offensive
force for the Eagles. Kipp, who is LHU's
second all-time leading scorer and an
All-Conference selection, paced the team
last year with 19 goals, including an
amazing seven-goal performance against
Shippensburg. Kipp now has 55 goals in
her collegiate career.
Teamed with Kipp, will be another
scoring threat in Liz Heit. Heit has scored
14 goals in her two years at LHU.
Other returning offensive threats for the
Eagles are Michelle Burt, who scored seven
goals last season, and Jen Stewart , who
added five goals.
Senior co-captian Anne Whitlock and
senior Jen Uter will add both experience
and leadership to the Eagle line-up.
Whitlock has nine goals and eight assists
over career. Uter has scored five goals and
added one assist as she returns for her final
season.
With all this experience and talent on
offense. Head Coach Bridget Roun is still
concerned.
"Being able to score is going to be our
major concern this year ," said Roun. "We

are actually in better shape this year than
last year. We are very experienced,
returning so many veterans, but we are not
deep. That will be a major concern."
Defensively, the Eagles will rely on
senior co-captain Christine Curcio. Curcio is
coming off an injury last season that forced

Lacrosse

juniors Julie Patterson, Laura Gerrior, and
Corina Wells.
Another key question coach Roun will
her to take a red-shirt. Curcio has 11 goals have to answer is who will replace
All-American goalie Amy Yorks.
and two assists in her career.
Competing for the vacated goalie position
Other players to watch on defense include
will be Robin Martin and Sherry
Strausbaugh.
Both
players
are
inexperienced but coach Roun feels pretty
confident about the goalie situation.
"Replacing any All-American is always a
tough thing to do, but the team has faith in
both Robin and Sherry. With good 'D' in
front of them, they should be able to hold the
line. "
Coach Roun also feels that the weather is
having an effect on her team, especially on
the development of the transition game.
"The biggest thing we have going against
us right now is the weather. The transition
game is a key concern for us this year," says
Roun. "We haven't been able to work on it
much because of being indoors. We have
to work inside in a gym, on a game that has
no boundries."
Lock Haven is currently 0-1 on the season,
having dropped a heart-breaking loss to
SUNY Cortland, 9-8.
Next up for the Eagles will be an away
game at Rowen State College today at 1 p.m.
Later this week the team will continue on
the road for games at Shippensburg
University and Millersville University.
All-Conference Deidre Kipp will be relied on heavily this season if

After years of waiting.,.

Construction of new field set to begin
by Clint Often
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_
The most significant thing that has
happened
to Lock Haven University's
baseball team in recent memory occurred
this week, which is strange considering the
team didn't play one inning.
The Eagles, forced to postpone last
Sunday's game at Allentown College
because of bad weather, received the good
news that they've been waiting years for
when they learned that the University agreed
to buiffl a field for them.
The field will be constructed because the
University transferred the deed to the
property where the field will be from the
foundation's name to its own.
This legal technicality almost delayed
construction, but as of now, the project is
on.
During another season plagued by rain and
snow, this news was a ray of bright sunshine
for the players and coaches alike.
"As soon as the crews can get on it, they'll
start working," said assistant coach Horace
"Lefty" Lovelace.

He added that the work crews will cut out
the infield, bring in the dirt mixture for the
infield and pitcher's mound, and put in a
warning track and fence in the outfield.
Junior catcher Aaron Tiracorda summed
up the team's feelings by saying , "They're
finally going to do it. Hopefully it'll be
finished by July (for summer camps)."
The news was especially satisfying to head
coach Paul "Smokey" Stover.
"I'm pleased about the commitment the
University has made to baseball," said
Stover, who has fought for a new field since
taking the reigns of the program two years
ago. "I expect baseball to be on the upswing
in the future."
The Eagles, off to a 4-7 start, consist
mainly of freshmen and sophomores, so
most of the early-season mistakes can be
attributed to inexperience at the college
level and unfamiliarity in playing together.
Leading the way offensively thus far for
the Eagles has been freshman first baseman
Dave Hartlaub (.444, IHR, 10 RBI),
sophomore C/OF Heath Stover (.391, 0, 6),
and freshman infielder Mike Allen (.367, 10
RBI).
Sophomore Jason Heidel leads the team
with two home runs to go along with his

Baseball
.316 average. Hartlaub, Todd Stiner, and
Tiracorda have also gone deep for the
Birds.
Heading the pitching staff to this point has
been Karl Raffin (1-1, 2.65 ERA), Scott
Strong (1-0, 3.09), Jeff Book (1-1, 3.27) and
Brian Hoffman (1-0, 3.86).
Raffin has struck out eleven batters, while
Book, Hoffman, and freshman Dan Elling
have fanned eight each.
Although the team has been sluggish at
times. Stover feels that consistency will
come with experience.
"1 think we have a lot of potential," he said,
"but we still have a lot to learn."
After learning what they did about the
go-ahead with their field, the team can now
concentrate on playing.
The next game for the Eagles will be a
doubleheader at Indiana.
The games were originally to be played at
home, but were moved to lUP because their
field doesn't have any snow on it. The first
home game of the season is now scheduled
for April 5 against Edinboro at 1 p.m.

The Lock Haven boxing club has lost one
of the "Fab Five" to an injury just one week
before the National Championships. The
hopes for a team title have also been refocused into individual accomplishments.
Undefeated Dirk Weaver ended his season just one week prior to nationals when an
injury from high school football was reinjured during the last controlled sparring
session of the year.
"The injury was a fluke," said coach Ken
Cox. "I feel he would have won the 165-lb
weight class, of course we are disappointed."
While sparring, both Weaver and his opponent threw left hooks and collided their
elbows. It was bone on bone. Weaver's elbow broke on contact. "Training injuries in
amateur boxing are rare," said Dr. Cox.
"In 16 years we have only had one other
and that was when Joe Ferrari broke a bone
in his right hand in the final seconds of the
championship bout at the 1987 ECBA-NE
Regional Tournament." Ferrari was voted
the "Outstanding Boxer" of Easterns that
year.
Like Weaver, Ferrari was forced to default
out of the national tournament. The NCBA
coaches voted Ferrari an All-American in
absentia that year. The coaches will vote on
Weaver at the national meeting.
The tragedy is that Weaver was consistantly the most dedicated and hardest worker
on the team.
Weaver will be operated on this Wednesday and will begin rehab and physical therapy to recover and possibly return to boxing.
The team members boxing are dedicating
their efforts at nationals to Dirk.

national champions and a silver medalist and
placed second behind the U.S. Air Force
Academy. It would take 110% effort and a
lucky draw on the part of
Pat Woody, Jimmy Torres,
Todd Stiner and Chad Miner.
Woody, the defending
national 125-lb champion,
is a favorite again, as is
Chad Miner, who won the
165-lb title last year but has
moved up to 172-lb. Torres
is expected to receive a stiff
challenge from Matt Brown
(Santa Clara) in the 139 lb
division.
LHU's key to a top two or
three finish will be 147-lb
Todd Stiner, who must get
by the defending national
champions, Arturo
Alvarado of
USAFA and
Matt Horelick of UN-Reno
in
one of the toughest
weight classes.
"Our goal is to crown

Shue and Kozlowski praised by PSAC
by Dan Murray
Eagle Eye Sports Editor_
The Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference rewarded Lock Haven University basketball players Mike Shue and Holly Kozlowski last week for
their stellar
performances this past season, naming Shue
PSAC-West "Rookie of the Year," and
Kozlowski PSAC-West First Team and AllECAC South Second Team.
Shue, a freshman from Dover, Pa, burst on
the scene last season averaging 13.7-ppg and
17.8-ppg in PSAC-West play. Shue led the
conference in free-throw percentage with an
86.3 percentage and led the Eagles in threepointers nailing 61 of 174.
Kozlowski, a senior from Nanticoke, Pa,
ended her sf>ectacular career at the Haven
leading the Lady Eagles with an 18-ppg average and finishing her career with 1, 653

Basketball
points, ranking her second on LHU's all time
scoring list.
Both Shud and Kozlowski were the silver
linings in an otherwise dismal season for
LHU basketball as the men's team finished in
last place for the first time in over a decade
and the women's team faded fast after
showing promise early in the season.
Shue, who started the season as the team's
sixth man, exploded onto the scene shortly
after the departure of Shon Crosby and Chris
Franklin and quickly asserted himself as the
premier scoring threat on the Bald Eagle
squad.
At times, Shue displayed flashes of brilliance including back-to-back games in
which he scored 34-points against California
of Pa., and 33-points the following night

against Shippensburg in an LHU win.
Kozlowski ended her fabulous career at
the Haven by epitomizing consistency that
has made her one of LHU's all-time greats
Although a return trip to the playoffs
eluded her for the third consecutive year,
Kozlowski enjoyed a solid season anil along
with teammate Suzie Baird, showed the
"baby eagles" what college ball is all about.
Whereas the men's squad will ^ a v e a
player to build around for the next three
years, the women will be left with a huge
void that will be difficult to fill, not only in
physical ability, but in heart and soul.
For Shue, a sophmore jinx seems unapparent at this point because there is a sense
that Haven fans haven't seen the total package yet and that there is more to be unfurled.
As for Kozlowski, Haven fans saw one of
the best. Enough said.

Alien abductions, possible cover-up
by Y. Journalist
Eagle Beagle Strange and Unusual
Reporter
For a few University students, spring break
was not an enjoyable experience. They left
Campus, but they didn't get to go home or on a
dream vacation. Their plans were interrupted
when they embarked on a different journey, as
victims of an alien abduction.
Early on the morning of March 4, as thunder
accompanied the big snowstorm, strange lights
were reported coming from the roof of Price
Performance Center by various students on
campus.
"There was a bunch of flashing bright green
and blue colored lights," said Martha Cornfelter,
who lives in Russell Hall. "Then all of a sudden
they stopped, and I couldn't see what was there
.because the snow was falling so hard."
Corkie Bonner, Missy Dork and Jon Frogger
could tell you quickly what the strange object
was. They disappeared that night, and when their
families came to pick them up the next day, they
were nowhere to be found.
Missing person reports were filed with the state
police. No motives could be given for the disappearance.
"The police told us that my son must have just
run away," said Martin Frogger. "I can't believe
no one saw a single thing."
Apparently the three were snatched from their
sleep by small, extremely strong creatures that
resembled trolls.
One student was taken from Russell Hall, and
two were abducted from McEntire Hall.
"They knocked us out and dragged us to their
ship. They must have been so silent; I can't believe my roommate didn't even hear anything "
said Dork who agreed to share her experience.
Frogger and Bonner refused to comment.
Once on the ship, the three regained con-

spots on campus, they were mainly seen hovering over Price

sciousness and realized they were
flying. Looking out the window, they
were far above the earth.
"The aliens kept poking us with
needles of all sizes, doing so many
strange tests," said Dork. "1 was
never so scared in my life. I thought
I'd never see anyone again. They
separated the three of us, too."
"They talked in a very strange language," she added. "I asked them
what they were and what they were
going to do to us, but they wouldn't
answer.
They just shook their

heads."
"They had pink hair which stuck
out from their heads like a troll's
hair," she said.
They were very
wrinkled and after every word they
said they would spit," Dork said.
"At one point I was really getting
nervous," she continued. "They
looked like they were going to perform some kind of operation on me.
They were getting out knives and
masks of some sort, but luckily I was
saved. Something very impwrtant
happened at that instant."

What happened was that Bonner escaped. The
aliens had lowered their flight level.. Spying a parachute, he was out the door and sailing safely to the
ground in an instant.
That sent fear into the abductors, because they
knew he would tell all of what happened as soon as
he landed.
"At that point they started running around, like
they were nervous," said Dork. "They immediately
turned the ship around and we were back in Lock
Haven in what seemed like seconds."
The three were actually missing through all of
spring break. Two were returned to the roof of Price
Performance Center early on the morning of March
13, and rescued by police after people passing by
heard their cries.
"It seemed like we were only gone for a matter of
15 minutes," Dork said.
Bonner, who jumped from the ship, landed in a
field in Texas, where he was hospitalized for minor
injuries received when he hit the ground.
"I'm not sure how many people actually believe
us," said Dork. "But if it didn't really happen, how
did Corkie end up in Texas after falling out of the
sky?"
Dork and Frogger were treated for minor dehydration at a local hospital. Surprisingly, no needle
marks remained from the tests.
The UFO National Security Council Chief of Staff
Edgar Duby said that his committee is looking into
the matter.
"We get reports like this all the time," he said, "but
rarely do we ever find out the truth."
Officials now wonder if the damage done to Price,
which was formerly thought to be caused by snow,
was actually a result of the alien ship landing.
The government says that everyone saw a weather
ballon and nothing more.
For the three students, it was more than just a hoax
or a weather balloon. "I'm just glad the whole ordeal
is over, although I'm going to be afraid to walk outside in the dark for a really long time," said Dork.

Editor in chief killed in desk avalanche
Kenneth J. Newquist, of 14 Tine
Road, Flanders, NJ, was killed yesterday when a pile of papers, books
and computer disks avalanched and
swallowed him up. He was 22.
Newquist was on INTERnet in the
Eagle Beagle office when the desk
began to tremble and the junk slid over
top of the editor in chief, according to
an eye-witness account by Leslie
Groene, Eagle Beagle Sports Editor.
Groene has been committed to Lock
Haven Hospital for psychiatric eval-

uation due to the trauma of the event.
The only signs of Newquist's existence were a Mets hat and a message
on the computer that said "What the - ," according to state police reports.
"It's amazing — he was completely
swallowed up," said police chief P.
Riley Winko. "This just illustrates the
dangers of desk uncleanliness. People
pile things to incredible heights and
think it's still safe. This is an increasing problem."
Many of Newquist's friends were in

shock. "I told him to clean it, but he
never listened," said Sue Heintzelman.
"We didn't need him anyway," said
April Miller.
Memorial services will be held at the
site of the tragedy at 1 p.m. on Tuesday, April 5. Donations can be made
in honor of the deceased to the Desk
Task Force.

Elvis to make comeback in Lock Haven
Nuke Shakespeare
Eagle Beagle Reincarnation

Editor_

The King has returned.
After a ten-year tour of the afterlife, his
sequined highness has returned to the world
of the living.
The crowned lord of rock'n'roll Elvis
Presley will play Hubert Jack Stadium on
April 30 to kick off Finals Week. Tickets
are $4 for students, $340 for everyone else.
Official "I saw Elvis at LHU and I wasn't
stoned" t-shirts and velvet paintings will be
on sale at the event, as well as commemorative pins and ice cube trays.
But how, you ask, could the King return?
And why Lock Haven?
It all started last Tuesday.
Sporting an ivory jumpsuit and a newly
cloned, drug-free body, he strutted into the
SCC offices, ready to kick off his world tour
right here at Lock Haven University.
With practiced ease he slipped his hands
over his near-perfect hair line and said:
"Ah have returned!"
Several senators immediately collapsed ~
partly in shock, partly from sun stroke after
having looked at the King's glistening blue
suede shoes. The rest fell to the ground in

worshipful awe
"Rise all you little hound dogs," Presley
said, his hands outstretched.
But they couldn't, so strong was the force
of his presence. Finally, Senator Ernest
Bullwinkle (who's name has been made up to
protect the innocent ... namely us.)
approached him.
"Err...excuse me sir," Bullwinkle said, "but
aren't you, ah, dead?"
"Ah was dead son, but lets just say we've
got some little friends out there..." He
paused, looking towards some distant, unknown point, "who like me. They really like
me. In fact, they thought there should be
more people like me. So they brought me
back."
"To Lock Haven?" Bullwinkle said, his
awe-struck face suddenly twisted by doubt.
The King's brow became furrowed. "Ah
course ah came to Lock Haven," he said, his
voice deep and soulful, "ma true believer,
Ellen Bans, lives in 822 McEntire Hall."
"Ah heard her mournful prayers on the
other side, and ma little green friends
brought me back to answer them."
"But what about the rain?" the senator
said.
The King pulled out his obsidian sun-

glasses, sliding them up the bridge of his
nose like the rock god that he was. "Don't
worry about the rain. Ma friends —" he
pointed one finger skyward confidently, "—
will take care of it."
Then he threw down a program guide with
incredible cover art by Matt Vasey, and disappeared in a glimmer of white light.
"If you bill it, I will come," were his last,
faintly echoing words.
And so, preparations have begun. Renovations on Hubert Jack Stadium, already
accelerated for the 1997 Super Bowl, have
been jump started even more.
Accommodations for the 100,000 expected
to attend the event (including over 5000
Porta-Johns and over 2000 Elvis artifact
vendors) are scheduled to be completed by
2131.
That's still too late for the concert, but it's
a full 300 years ahead of the Pennsylvania
Department of General Services' original
schedule.
To accommodate the worshipful masses in
the meantime. University officials said that
they were planning to "borrow a hell of a lot
of foldingchairs."
When asked what they thought of the
concert, students uniformly and without
exception replied "That's cool."

It's the King! Elvis was caught

transportation

For those students who have not noticed all the
constuction work going on in and around the downtown area. Lock Haven has finally reached the age
of technology. Lock Haven has built its first subway.
"For some time now we have had the external
fixtures to the subway built," said Mark Diddle,
chief construction engineer of the Lock Haven Subway Project. "The three entrances to the subway
on the University campus have been there for
years."
The locations of the three entrances are in front of
Ulmer, on the hill beside Sullivan and near the bottom of the PUB.
"I'm glad the subway is finally built," said Mona
Mousewits, a resident of Lock Haven. "Now students [who cannot get parking stickers] won't be
bringing cars to school. Students looking for off
campus parking creates a problem for the residents
of Lock Haven, because the students park in front of
our houses and take away our parking spaces."
"It's about time they got that project done," said
Norton Banks, a Lock Haven resident. "They started
the project in the 1970s and now it's finally done. 1
wonder when the dike/levee project will get done!"
Students wanting to go from campus to downtown
Lock Haven should take the blue route according to
Diddle. "We considered naming the routes going
toward the University the burgandy and gray routes
because we figured those dumb students can probably remember their school colors."
"The subway will be running at night," Diddle
said. "But the first time a college student decides to
have a party or urinate on the subway it will shut
down a 5 p.m. sharp. We won't tolerate any misuse
of the facilities."
The city of Lock Haven is also planning to bring
in some of the subway entertainment found in big
cities, according to Margeret Babble, chairperson of

the subway entertainment committee.
"We've asked some of those people who play the guitar and
beg for money to stand at the subway entrances to entertain
people," said Babble. "I'm so excited! Right now we're looking
for someone who can play Merle Haggard."
"We're expecting to make some money off the college students," said Diddle. "Maybe then we'll have a reason for
keeping them around!"
The fare for a round trip from the University to downtown

Lock Haven will be $1. However, students wishing to go to Mill
Hall will have to pay $5 because of they will have to take a connecting route. There will also be a half hour layover.
"I think the subway is a great idea!" said Curt Migrane, a LHU
student. "It makes me so dizzy my head hurts!"

Snipe hunting is new craze in Clinton Co.

Friday, April 1,1994 Eagle Beagle 3

The only equipment needed is a gunnysack,
burlap bag or even a paper bag (plastic bags
are not as effective because they are very
noisey and snipes have extremely good
hearing) and a candle. In the event that a
candle is not available, a flash light can do
the job.
"I can't wait to go snipe hunting," said
sophomore Melissa Schwartz. Hailing from
New Jersey, where the snipe population is
almost nonexistant, Schwartz never heard of
a snipe before she came to Lock Haven.
\

Ingredients:
3 medium sized
potatoes, sliced
1 c. carrots, sliced
1 c. peas
1/3 c. celery, diced
1/2 tsp. garlic salt
1 c. water

As dusk falls on Deep Woods Country, one
can hear that distant call of the wild. The
wind -howls and leaves rustle. A lodely
greenhorn stands quietly with the sack. His
hands tremble in anticipation of the chase.
The candle flickering just inches from the
gunnysack reveals the excitement on the
kid's face ~ the excitement of catching his

first snipe.
Snipe hunting, like many gaming sports, is
usually passed from generation to generation. But in recent years, all ty()es of people,
from top CEOs to prarie farmers, have been
flocking to Clinton County to join the millions who go on guided hunting excursions.
Recently, students at Lock Haven University have joined the ranks of these
sportsman. Although guided hunts can cost
up to $1,500, students often hunt on the land
of a local person they know for as liUle as $2.

"I'm not really the hunting type, but it's
something different to do." Although
Schwartz is weary of eating snipe meat, she
is anticipating her excursion after the Easter
vacation.
Actually snipe tastes very much like
chicken. Often mistaken for quail in the
wild, snipe does not have the gamey taste
associated with most hunted birds.
Snijjes were one of the foods sought as
delicacies by Native Americans in the Eastern United States. Bruce Goodmansen's
book The Official Snipe Hunting Field
Guide documents a cave painting by the

Snipe I*ie
1/3 c. onion, diced
1 c. white turnips
2 c. brussels sprouts.
1 c. artichoke hearts
2 lb. snipe meat (appprox. 2 adult birds)
1 T. Worcestershire Sauce •^*'

Pie Dough:
Mix 4 cups of flour with 1 cup of lard or Crisco'•'*•, 1 egg, and 1/2 c. of
water.
Preheat oven at 450°. Make pie crust and place in 9" pie pan.
After plucking all the feathers out of the snipe, use a blow torch to singe off
the rest of the feathers. Be careful you don't bum the whole bird. Simmer the
snipe meat in butter, slowly adding garlic salt and Worcestershire Sauce''*', until
meat is slightly brown.
In large mixing bowl combine the remaining ingredients with the snipe. Add the
cup of water. Mix well. Spread evenly in pie pan. Put pie crust on top. Bake
for an hour and half or until pie is brown on top. Serve warm or with buttermilk.

Flooding to make town famous
by Big Bear
Eagle Beagle Movie Production Critic
The river's rising. People are worried. The dike isn't finished, and even if it was, would it help? The possibility of
large amounts of water spilling over the banks of the Susquehanna River and into the town looms in the air.
Under this dark cloud, however, a ray of sunshine warms the little town of Lock Haven. You're wondering how this
can be? Well, the rising Susquehanna is going to make this little town famous.
Now you're wondering even more. Lock Haven famous? Impossible, you say. It's simple, though - this litde town
on the bank of the Susquehanna is going to be the site for the filming of a major motion picture re-inacting the great
biblical flood.
Yes, a movie about the flood that lasted 40 days and 40 nights is going to be filmed right here in Lock Haven, and the
University is going to be a part of it!
The lumber for the construction of the ark, along with the filming crew, will be rolling into town on Monday. That's
also when auditions for the cast of TVie Wa/er's Risin'- Bring Those Animals Aboard, TVoa/i.'will begin.
University President Craig Dean Willis has already signed a contract to play the lead role of Noah. "I can't believe
I'm getting the chance to become a star," Willis said. "1 can hardly wait to hop on that ark and begin acting!"
Casting for the movie isn't complete, yet, however. The roles of the animals still need to be filled. That's where
University students come into the picture.
"Thestf roles cannot be filled by the timid," said Barney Redrock, a member of the filming crew. "We want students
who aren't afraid to get a little crazy."
This is indeed true. The students who play animal characters will sport animal costumes and put a lot of energy into
playing their roles.
"We heard there's a TJOO in town," Redrock said. "We figure that's a good place to begin our search for students to play
these characters."
The University mascot, the Bald Eagle, has already been selected to be a member of the cast. "This is going to be the
experience of a lifetime, plus it's a great way to earn a few extra bucks," he said.
Auditions for the movie's cast will begin on Monday, April 11. Interested students should report to Sloan Auditorium
between 8 ajn. and 8 p.m. Costumes will be provided.

Cheeokee Indians from approximatley 1732.
The familiar word "sniper" also originated from the word snipe.
From its Scandinavian origin, the word sniffer means one who
shoots from a hidden position.
Originally a marsh animal of the South, snipes slowly migrated
north and have adapted to the wooded areas of Central Pennsylvania.
Roy Silvis and his girlfriend Tracy Hower enjoy snipe hunting
in the evening hours. "It's a great way to relax after a long day
of physics and zoology," said Hower. "It also gives me the opportunity to study the plant and animal life for the different biology courses 1 have."
Silvis said snipe hunting is a tradition in his family that he introduced to Hower. "My parents always say, 'Don't worry 'bout
your mate running off with another woman or man if you take
them snipe huntin' in the wooded land.' There have not been any
divorces in my family because husbands and wives always go
snifje hunting together."

Jack Stadium to host Super Bowl
by Jon Fredrick Englebert William
Dennis Sparlue Houser III
Eagle Beagle Sports Gossip Columnist
National Football League Commisioner
Paul Tagliabue, announced yesterday that
Lock Haven University's Hubert Jack Stadium had been appointed as the site of the
1997 Super Bowl.
In a statement released by the league office
on Thursday, Tagliabue stated, "We picked
Lock Haven because we wanted to bring the
NFL experience to a small town and to try
and break away from all the fanfare and
hoopla that overshadows the game itself
when it's held in a large city.
"Another reason for our selection was to
give the people of Lock Haven something
to do, for god's sake."
Hubert Jack beat out a host of more lavish
stadiums such as the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif.; The Pontiac Silverdome in
Pontiac, Mich.; and New Orleans' Superdome.
To accommodate the Super Bowl and the
financial obligations needed to support such
an event, town officails are planning a series
of fund-raising events which include a town
car wash, a round robin dart tournament at
the a local bar, and a country dance contest
sponsored by a local radio station.
Plans are already in order to renovate Hubert Jack Stadium with hopes of adding
50,000 more seats and 75 luxury penthouse
boxes.
In reality, that would take three years according to city ordinance 65A-I8Z, but officials say they can revise the rule and knock

out construction in one and a half years.
The NFL also added that they would help
fund any problems the city may run into in
meeting the Super Bowl's needs.
The Lock Haven University administration
is in full support of the NFL's announcement
and feels that it would in no way disrupt the
school calendar or the interest of the students.
Students living in Smith, Woolridge, Rus-

sell, and North Hall will have to find
someplace else to live during the two
weeks leading up to the game. These residence halls will be used to accommodate
the players, media personnel, and league
officials.
Bentley Hall would also be closed during
that period and Zimmerli Gymnasium and
Thomas Fieldhouse would be used exclusively by employees of the NFL.

When word of the announcement got
around campus, the students went into an
immediate frenzy.
"This is like gonna be so cool, like oh my
god dude, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh," said one
university student.
Even with all the attention that the Super
Bowl would bring to Lock Haven, some
students seem skeptical of the idea.
"Football is such a barbaric display of
humanity and it is a symbol of the degregation of our society and I have four finals that
week," said another student.
Even though there are a few cynics the
overall atmosphere in town and on campus
is generally upbeat and the people are looking forward to hosting such an enormous
event.
"There hasn't been this much excitement in
town since we held that monster truck tractor pull back in '82," said one resident.
The NFL is also upbeat about the recent
announcement although a few players are
curious as to where Lock Haven actually is.
Emmit Smith of the Dallas Cowboys said,
"1 honestly never heard of Lock Haven before but I think they buy my shoes there, so
hey, I 'm all for it."
Rumors floating around the league office
in New York say that the NFL would like
to bring a franchise to Lock Haven but no
details have been disclosed as of yet.
With all the positive news coming from the
league on the Super Bowl decision, there has
been one minor setback. The league had
signed Pearl Jam and Snoop Dog to perform
during the halftime festivities but the town
people opted for Meatloaf instead.
