Lock Haven State Colleg
Vol. XVI, No. 49
Choir celebrates Christmas
By Tootsey Jackson
" T i s ' the season to be
jolly."
Well it's almost that time
of year. But what can be a
better way to express joyfulness than in a song.
The College Singers and
the College Choir, under the
direction of Mr. Gary Renselman, will present their songs
of Christmas in their Winter
Choral Concert on Thursday,
Dec. 6, 1973.
The featured work is "An
Appalachian Nativity; A
Christmas Folk Cantata written by Lewis H. Horton.
Its patterns are marked by
characteristic shape-note
tricks and by the absence of
many of the convention s of
"ordinary" music.
Shapenote is a system devised to
simplify the teaching of singing not only by spacing the
notes on the staff but also by
indicating Ihe relation to the
tonic of a specific note by
its shape:
round, square,
triangular, diamond shapes,
each having its name, fa, sol,
la and mi- to cite a common
system. There is no musical
accompaniment.
Featured soloists will
be Carolyn Bair and Ernest
Naylor.
The College Singers will
open the presentation with
"Hodie Christus Natus E s t " ,
Jesu, Priceless Treasure:
Two Chorales", "Messiah
Selections" and "For
Unto
Us A Child Is Born".
Sue Keffer and Carolyn
Bair will be the soloists for
"He Shall Feed His Flock".
Following "An Appalachian Nativity", the College
Singers will render, "Caro! of
the Bells", "Still,Still,Still".
"White Christmas", and "Disneyland Carolers".
The College Choir will
conclude the program with
'Christmas Music for Voices'
and 'Jazz Gloria'.
The concert will begin at
8 in Price Auditorium and is
open to the public without
charge.
Hollander program skilled and interesting
By Robert Singer
The Lock Haven Artist
Series audience was treated to
a rather interesting performance
on Thursday night when Lo'in
Hollander, one of America's
better pianists, came into town.
Most of those in attendance
will remember the extreme
amounts of emotion and activity which accompanied the
notes from the piano, as Hollander tends to thr ow himself,
to put it moldly, into the music.
This extramusical activity
tended to eclipse the sound
from the stage to the average
viewer. In addition, he prefaced all his performances by
reciting a few program notes
while pacing the stage. However, he is noted for his musii
not his activity outside of
that- and it is upon the music
that this review will attempt
to concentrate.
First on the pr ogram was
Brahms' Sonata in F minor.
Op. 5. This sonata is not
played very often, probably
because it is one of the most
difficult works in the repertoire. Hollander handled it
well, but did not embellish
his performance by making it
look easy.
The same applied to the
rest of the program. The only
significant problem was his
heavihandedness on the keyboard, except during the se
cond movement, which was
marked Andante
espressivo,
and which was played with
about as much expres sion as
you can get out of a piano.
This heavihandedness was
especially noticeable during
the Scherzo, which is not, of
itself, particularly light anyhow.
Not surprisingly, the
intermission came right after
this piece, even though it was
the first work scheduled, not
only because of the length, but
also because the audience
needed a musical rest after
all that had be en heard.
Aaron Copland's Piano
Variations of 1930 followed.
In his verbal program notes,
Hollander mentioned that Copland gave notes to the performer on how to handle the
music,"...play naively, threateningly..." for example. That
is what happened, most of the
way through. The music did
not reflect the character of
the typical theme and variations,
and some of the more unusual
details did not manage to make
it out to the audience, things
like 'sound objects' and pitch
rhythm constructions, which
most people had trouble understanding.
Last on the program was
Maurice Ravel's Gaspard de
la nuit, fantasies in the manner of Callot.
If anything on the program
was played well, this was it.
Hollander produced the proper sound effects this time,
making the Ravel not sound
strictly like a piece of music,
but like the musical portraits
which his three movements,
Ondine, Le Gibet, and Scarho,
were designed to be. The
performance of these, like
those of the other composers
was high quality, but the playing reflected much more of
what was in the music, which
was not always the case. The
unwieldiness exhibited in the
Brahms did not surface in the
Ravel, except toward the end
in the Scar bo, and this was
mostly justified, due to the
character of the piece.
Hollander complemented
the performance with two impressive encores, Rachmaninoff's Prelude in C sharp
minor and the last movement
of Prokofiev's Sonato No. 7,
which left the viewer wi th a
much better idea than the main
program of just how skilled
Hollander is at the keyboard.

Dear Editor...Students look carefully
To the Editor:
We are living in times of
tight-money and distrust in
elected officials at all levels
of government. The two problems are directly related,
because these officials are the
ones who have dictated our
financial policies. This is
true of the President ami the
difficulties we are having on
the domestic front. Il is elso
true that, due to miscalculations on the part of the governor
and his advisors, as well as
our college administrators, we
are feeling the effects of a
shortage of funds al this institution. If we had looked a
little closer at oui leaders
before entrusting Ihem with our
money, perhaps we could have
avoided ou: present predicament.
While the students of this
college lw\c very liitlc power

in the speniing of then aeliM!\ tecs. Our p^^»er is pripian','' wiel'ied by electing
ot'ficers to the SCC, but this
pcwet IS limited in two i^ays.

SecondK, o.ir elections contain

MindU trusifd with our welfare. *hen we sometimes
discover thai oi» welfare has
been misrepresetued, il is loo
often beyond our control.
My motivation m »Titing
thi£ lettei is to attempt to
prevent the "burning down of
the t>am, so tliat the horses
won't have to be disturbed".
At first I kept quiet about the
proposed radio suiion, because
in tlie past, the radio station
was a popular topic for discussion, but an unpopular
topic for action. However. the
apparent increase in interest
has persuaded me to speak
out on the subject.
Studrau of Lock Haven
State College. I would hiflily
reccHnead that you look carefuHr Bt the f s a s beiore you
plunge into a situation that
may prove to be contrary to
yoir interests. The question
has been raised concerning
who will run the proposed
radio station, and the motivations of Mordecai Lipshutr., the
main advocate of the radio
station, have been questioned.
Mr. Lipshutz has heen the
point of attack of a couple of
unfair writers who have had
letleis published in Ihe Eagle
Eye. 1 am no lawer, bul I
think it would be safe t o say
that a number of comments
thai have been made about Mr.
Lipshutz are libelous. I would
also question the Eagle Eye's
policy of printing these libelous
letters. This policy seems to
overstep the rights of the free
press. 1 have
known Mr.
l.ipshmz for more than two
years, and I'm sure that his
motic&iions concerning the
r.Tdio station arc just as pure
as the motivations which
persuade students to riii for
SCC offices. Mr Lipshutz
is also quite knowledgable
concerning the technical aspects of a radio station. After
all, he was involved w ith the
now defunct radio station at
Lycoming College, when he
was a student ihere a few
years ago.
However, 1 do question
his qualifications regarding
the responsibilities entailed
in running a newly created
radio station. In the years that
I have known Mr. Lipshutz, he
has demonstrated an uncanny
quality of
irresponsibility.
While working with him over
the past two summers, I found
him to be extremely unreliable.
When his presence was expected
at a certain time, he would
quite often be several hours
late. On other occasions, Mr.
Lipshutz would not arrive at
all. His record of tardiness
and absence could prove to
be detrimental to the smooth
functioning of our proposed
radio station.
I would also hesitat e to
entrust him with the expensive
equipment that would be paid
foc wilh our money. While
working wilh Mr. Lipshut z, an
expensive tape recorder that
had been left in his care was
stolen. It was stolen because
he failed to use the needed
precaution of locking it up in
a safe place. When he discovered that the recorder was missing, Mr. Lipshutz left the
premisis to repori the theft.
Duiing his absence, an expensive
stereo receiver was stolen.
I am completely willing to
stand behind anything that I
have said in Ihis
letter. I
encourage anyone to step
forward who can repudiate
any statement I have made,
because I am only interested
in gelling the facu
to the
students of this college , be fore they invest their activity
fee money unwisely.
Respectfully,
Daniel Jon Keefer

To the Editor:
Most people, it seenn,
are doing their bit to help ease
the energy crisis. Upon checking the routine of tny dail)
life on campus, I too have
found ways to help the cause.
I have discovered, for
instartce, that my legs are
capable of carrying me to
R406 without the aid of the
elevator. I realize too diat

it would be.

Eagles win season opener In 31-8 romp
by Gary Brubaker
"I'm pleased, but not
elated," were the words
Eagle wrestling Coach Ken
Cox used to describe LHS's
31-8 victory over Morgan
State last Saturday night.
"We did a good job, but I
think our boys underestimated
Morgan State's team."
A large Thomas Field
House crowd saw the Eagles
dominate the middle weight
classes, but it was the 118
and 126 pound classes that
gave the Eagles the momentum they needed.
Brian Kuntz locked up
with Marvin Mathews at 118
and wiien the dust had
cleared the two boys had
battled to a 5-5 draw.
Mathews took Kuntz down
with just 26 seconds gone
in the first period but Kuntz
escaped, making it 2-1.
Mathews took top position
starting the second, and rode
Kuntz for nearly a minute
and a half until Kuntz
escaped at 1:28, knotting the
score at 2-2. With 55 seconds
left in ttie second period
Kuntz caught Mathews napping and took him down on a
beautiful fireman's carry to
lead 4-2. Mathews escaped
just 7 seconds later and the
period ended with Kuntz on
top 4-3. The final 3 minutes
of acticn saw Mathews taking
just 20 seconds to escape.
This knotted the score at 4-4
but Mathews had a riding
time advantage over Kuntz
and tried to stay away from
the Eagle matman. Kuntz
became the aggressor and it
paid off as he was awarded
1 point for Mathew's failure
to wrestle and the score
ended 5-S making the team
score 2-2.
At 126, Eagle Bob
Banfill could not wrestle due
to illness and Ben Shipman
failed to make weight so
Coach Cox inserted Tim
McCamley to wrestle one of
Morgan State's top boys in
Herb Johnson.
The Eagle freshmen was
taken down twice by Johnson
in the first period bul
escaped both tiroes. Down
4-2 McCamley executed a
perfect duck under takedown
with just 2 seconds left on
the clock and the score was
tied 4-4 as the buzzer
sounded. Johnson escaped
just 20 seconds into the
period taking a 5-4 lead.
Both boys toyed with each
other for the next few minutes
until McCamley again took
down the Morgan SUte
freshman with 1:15 left on
the clock. McCamley rode
Johnson out for the remainder
of the period end held a 6-5
lead going into the final
stanza. McCmaley escaped
with just 8 seconds elapsed
and led 7-5. Johnson was
just too tired to go for the
takedown and McCamley had
a hard-fought, well-earned
7-5 victory. This gave the
Eagles a 5-2 lead.
number 2 Way nailed Sproul
for a 2 point near fall to tie
the match at 2-2. Sproul
reversed Way at 1:55 of the
second period but 10 seconds
later George pulled off a
reversal of his own and the
period ended in a 4-4 draw.
Way escaped first IS seconds
into the period and in another
ten seconds had Sproul taken
down for a 7-4. Sproul
refused to give and with :58
seconds left in the match
reversed the Eagle freshman
tightening the score to 7-6.
Way had 4:16 of riding time
as compared to Sproul's 3:11

true of the President ami the
difficulties we are having on
the domestic front. Il is elso
true that, due to miscalculations on the part of the governor
and his advisors, as well as
our college administrators, we
are feeling the effects of a
shortage of funds al this institution. If we had looked a
little closer at oui leaders
before entrusting Ihem with our
money, perhaps we could have
avoided ou: present predicament.
While the students of this
college lw\c very liitlc power

suidenis have a definite say

MindU trusifd with our welfare. *hen we sometimes
discover thai oi» welfare has
been misrepresetued, il is loo
often beyond our control.
My motivation m »Titing
thi£ lettei is to attempt to
prevent the "burning down of
the t>am, so tliat the horses
won't have to be disturbed".
At first I kept quiet about the
proposed radio suiion, because
in tlie past, the radio station
was a popular topic for discussion, but an unpopular
topic for action. However. the
apparent increase in interest
has persuaded me to speak
out on the subject.
Studrau of Lock Haven
State College. I would hiflily
reccHnead that you look carefuHr Bt the f s a s beiore you
plunge into a situation that
may prove to be contrary to
yoir interests. The question
has been raised concerning
who will run the proposed
radio station, and the motivations of Mordecai Lipshutr., the
main advocate of the radio
station, have been questioned.
Mr. Lipshutz has heen the
point of attack of a couple of
unfair writers who have had
letleis published in Ihe Eagle
Eye. 1 am no lawer, bul I
think it would be safe t o say
that a number of comments
thai have been made about Mr.
Lipshutz are libelous. I would
also question the Eagle Eye's
policy of printing these libelous
letters. This policy seems to
overstep the rights of the free
press. 1 have
known Mr.
l.ipshmz for more than two
years, and I'm sure that his
motic&iions concerning the
r.Tdio station arc just as pure
as the motivations which
persuade students to riii for
SCC offices. Mr Lipshutz
is also quite knowledgable
concerning the technical aspects of a radio station. After
all, he was involved w ith the
now defunct radio station at
Lycoming College, when he
was a student ihere a few
years ago.
However, 1 do question
his qualifications regarding
the responsibilities entailed
in running a newly created
radio station. In the years that
I have known Mr. Lipshutz, he
has demonstrated an uncanny
quality of
irresponsibility.
While working with him over
the past two summers, I found
him to be extremely unreliable.
When his presence was expected
at a certain time, he would
quite often be several hours
late. On other occasions, Mr.
Lipshutz would not arrive at
all. His record of tardiness
and absence could prove to
be detrimental to the smooth
functioning of our proposed
radio station.
I would also hesitat e to
entrust him with the expensive
equipment that would be paid
foc wilh our money. While
working wilh Mr. Lipshut z, an
expensive tape recorder that
had been left in his care was
stolen. It was stolen because
he failed to use the needed
precaution of locking it up in
a safe place. When he discovered that the recorder was missing, Mr. Lipshutz left the
premisis to repori the theft.
Duiing his absence, an expensive
stereo receiver was stolen.
I am completely willing to
stand behind anything that I
have said in Ihis
letter. I
encourage anyone to step
forward who can repudiate
any statement I have made,
because I am only interested
in gelling the facu
to the
students of this college , be fore they invest their activity
fee money unwisely.
Respectfully,

Eagles win season opener In 31-8 romp
by Gary Brubaker
"I'm pleased, but not
elated," were the words
Eagle wrestling Coach Ken
Cox used to describe LHS's
31-8 victory over Morgan
State last Saturday night.
"We did a good job, but I
think our boys underestimated
Morgan State's team."
A large Thomas Field
House crowd saw the Eagles
dominate the middle weight
classes, but it was the 118
and 126 pound classes that
gave the Eagles the momentum they needed.
Brian Kuntz locked up
with Marvin Mathews at 118
and wiien the dust had
cleared the two boys had
battled to a 5-5 draw.
Mathews took Kuntz down
with just 26 seconds gone
in the first period but Kuntz
escaped, making it 2-1.
Mathews took top position
starting the second, and rode
Kuntz for nearly a minute
and a half until Kuntz
escaped at 1:28, knotting the
score at 2-2. With 55 seconds
left in ttie second period
Kuntz caught Mathews napping and took him down on a
beautiful fireman's carry to
lead 4-2. Mathews escaped
just 7 seconds later and the
period ended with Kuntz on
top 4-3. The final 3 minutes
of acticn saw Mathews taking
just 20 seconds to escape.
This knotted the score at 4-4
but Mathews had a riding
time advantage over Kuntz
and tried to stay away from
the Eagle matman. Kuntz
became the aggressor and it
paid off as he was awarded
1 point for Mathew's failure
to wrestle and the score
ended 5-S making the team
score 2-2.
At 126, Eagle Bob
Banfill could not wrestle due
to illness and Ben Shipman
failed to make weight so
Coach Cox inserted Tim
McCamley to wrestle one of
Morgan State's top boys in
Herb Johnson.
The Eagle freshmen was
taken down twice by Johnson
in the first period bul
escaped both tiroes. Down
4-2 McCamley executed a
perfect duck under takedown
with just 2 seconds left on
the clock and the score was
tied 4-4 as the buzzer
sounded. Johnson escaped
just 20 seconds into the
period taking a 5-4 lead.
Both boys toyed with each
other for the next few minutes
until McCamley again took
down the Morgan SUte
freshman with 1:15 left on
the clock. McCamley rode
Johnson out for the remainder
of the period end held a 6-5
lead going into the final
stanza. McCmaley escaped
with just 8 seconds elapsed
and led 7-5. Johnson was
just too tired to go for the
takedown and McCamley had
a hard-fought, well-earned
7-5 victory. This gave the
Eagles a 5-2 lead.
number 2 Way nailed Sproul
for a 2 point near fall to tie
the match at 2-2. Sproul
reversed Way at 1:55 of the
second period but 10 seconds
later George pulled off a
reversal of his own and the
period ended in a 4-4 draw.
Way escaped first IS seconds
into the period and in another
ten seconds had Sproul taken
down for a 7-4. Sproul
refused to give and with :58
seconds left in the match
reversed the Eagle freshman
tightening the score to 7-6.
Way had 4:16 of riding time
as compared to Sproul's 3:11
giving him a tough 8-6 victory
and pushing the team s c a e

and escaped in 16 seconds.
Jackson took Crowell down

reversed one minute later and
led 8-5 entering the last
stanza. Jackson rode Qowell
for almost 2Vi minutes before
Crowell escaped with 39

12-1 victory.

just 1 second for Hill gave
the Eagle grappler another
point and as the result of
the victory by superior

more points and a 19-2 lead.
At 167 Don Adams

Stater Ed Shivers with just
:32 seconds remaining in the
match. Adams held a 9-3
lead at the time of his fall,

a 25-2 team lead and wrapped
up the victory for the Eagles.
The Eagle wrestlers
suffered their first defeat of
the night when Luther Owens
defeated Dave Wasson 13-9
at the 177 pound class.
Owens scored a pair of
takedowns, an escape and a
2 point near fall, to just a
