LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Dear Mr. Walters:
This arttole is in response to your
sports edKorial printed in the November
22 isaue of the Eagla Eye.
Firat of ail, let me make it very clear
that this is not an attack on Coach Fisher
or the team, but rather on your
presentation of the facts. It is my
intention to convey the facts in a mora
realistto manner.
The accomplishments that you
referred to in, your article (Coach of the
Year, PSAC title) are accolades of the
past. Let me focus on the more recent
past. 1
Fact I: Three consecutive losing
seasons in the past three seasons, in
additton, you stated that Coach Fisher
has had only four losing seasons. Let
me remind you that he has bean head
coach for only eight seasons.
Fact il: Coach Fisher's career record
as head coach at Lock Haven is 33-47-1
for an approximate winning percentage of
.407.
EacLUl: Three-fourths of your arttoia
focused on the 1979 championship team.
However, you failed to print the fact that
it was an Inherited' team.
Also, wa believe that the true marl( of a
collegiate coach is revealed four years
after his initial season. This allows for
the coach to recruit and buito his team.
Once again, this Is by no means a
personal attack on Coach Fisher or the
players, it is my opinton that Lod^ Haven
has seen good talent in recent years.
Sincerely,
Bob Reynolds

Thanksgiving Reflections
Thanl student.
First and foremost there is that wonderful bird that donates its life to the
satisfaction of ali student's that haven't tasted home cooking in months.
Second there's good ole' mom, scurrying around the kitchen producing all
those wonderful smells and delicious iool Third is a table piled so high with delightful dishes that it may collapse right in
fat Aunt Bertha's lap.
Forth is that deep and inviting couch in front of a roaring fire with a
bone-caishing football game on the idiot tube.
Fifth there's the first guiltless nap you've taken in 11 weeks.
That's a normal Thanksgiving. But, how about adding one more thought to
that routine. Just take a few moments and really be thankful for the many
benefits that you do have. That, I believe, is the original purpose behind the
day.
Now it's time for the annual Editor/l-lunter Curse. May the turkeys of every
professor who plans on giving a test on Monday (First Day of Buck Season) crawl
off their plates and flap their little drumsticksrightout the window.

To the editor and ali on campus,
Nov 21 was designated an
international fast day by a reputable
agency called Oxfam America, which
funds self-help development projects
and disaster relief in Africa, Asia, and
Latin America and also distributes
excellent materials to inform Americans
on issues of devetopement and hunger.
I'm wondering to whom It is news that
LHU was a participant in this effort.
Information on this was placed all over
campus, on campus TV, in the campus
newspaper, on Cox Cable, and over 300
individual memos were sent to
administratton, faculty, and staff, inviting
them to participate by skipping one meal
or fasting from solid food all day and
contributing food money to Oxfam, whtoh
Is in a position to make good use of it.
i need to say that over 350 LHU
students volunteered their meal ticket
numbers for Nov 21 so that about $300
worth of food and food-related products
could be saved and given by Bentley
food service to "More Than Bread," whtoh
helps local needy people.
Two factors have both saddened and
angered me. For one, only seven brave
students showed up at noon in Bentley to
match their fasting with prayer (For the
hungry and for us who have too much).
That saddened me. The other angered
me. i went to the faculty dining room
around 1 p.m. on Nov 21 to check with
the hostess on how many faculty, staff,
and administration were fasting and what
donations had t>een given. The hostess
was not there, but the donatton t)Ox was.
It contained a 3 by 5 card folded about
three times with this written on it: "What
about our own people here in the U.S.
first?" That was it.
Faculty and staff on this campus can
moan and groan about the apathy and
narrow-mindedness of students here.
Where is the leadership? Some of you
may btow this off by saying, "That naive,
do-gooder nun—what does she know?"
I'd like to talk with people sometime-if
people would ever come to talk—and
share some of what I know and think, and
learn abo>jt what you know and think.
By the way, thanks to the three people
who sent ciiecks for Oxfam in today's
mall.
And can you guess how
much—total—was put into the two
donation boxes-in the faculty dining
room and the PUB? $6.2a

Sr Maureen McDonnell, O.P.
A TRIBUTE TO SUSAN HALL
By Oavid Gittelman
/ #>ink the Eagla Ey owes Sue Hall
an epilogue. Something tttat was missing
from your front page story of Tuesday,
Novemt>er 19 was Sue Hall, ttte woman.
You covered Sue Hall, the incident,
the tragedy, the 'story." But I knew her,
and there was something miasing.
I tmpe you wili print this for her friends,
her family and her colleagues, so that
they have something more to rememlier
and treasure than our own individual
memories and the reminder of a tem'ble,
unexplained death.
Sue Hall was a hard worker. She was
an "A" student, and had Just deckled that
she wanted to major in French. At 27,
she regretted not beginning college
straight out of high achool.
The burden of working part time and
going to school part time was ever
present in Sue's rife. Her answer to the
problem, however, was to work as long
and as hard as she needed to in both
aspects of her life to achieve a quality
and standard she fett comfortable with.
This quality was always of the highest.
Sue was a vital, alive person. Being
around her energized me, and I'm sure
she has affected others similarly. She
had a highly-developed sense of right
and wrong, and wouldn't stand for
circumstances she thought were unjust.
She had a mind, and she had a mouth;
she knew how to use tx>th of them. She
was never afraid or hesitant to form her
own opinkins and to stand by them, and
she waa never chaed-mlnded ermugh to
not listen to someone else's.
Sue was always very k>yal, and she
valued loyalty in others. She inspired
friends to be good friends,
and
acquaintances
to
be
cordial
acquaintances.
Her sense of humor was perhaps the
most outstanding part of her personality
to one first meeting her (I remember,
because it was not so long ago that I first
met her).
She smiled a lot - it was her nature.
Stte kjved a good pun now and then. She
woukl often launch into a funny accent or
dialect when describing something.
Sue Hail always kxiked for the best in
people.
She almost always found
something to like in each person.
When I think about Sue, and the fact
that she's not here anymore, I think that I
have hst a friend that I had only, it
seems, begun to know at all.
I think that she wouki confide in me
when she was mad at something that was
going on; that she trusted me with things
that were important to her.
I think that she had vacation time left
that she wont get a chance to take, and
that's not fair. / think that we used to talk
alx)ut going out for a beer sometimes
when things got rough, and we never got
a (^arKe to.
I think that people like Sue arent
supposed to just leave. And I dont
understand why she had to.
It's hard for me to be at aii positive that
Sue isnt a part of my everyday life
anymore. But I remember the words to a
song that's t>een in my life for a while
now, and they sort of symbolize what i
hope she has found. I thought of these
lyrics as I drove home from her wake,
and they made me cry.
fii close with these lyrics, by Stephen
Schwartz, from the show pippin.
Rivers t)ehng where they can ramble
Eagles behng where they can fly
I've got to be where my spirit can run
frea
Got to find my comer of the sky

What happens when an '80's hotshot
finds himself trapped in 1955? Good
Questton. Back to the Future has all the
answers. And then some.
Starring Michael J. (Tamily Ties") Fox
In the starring role, Back to the Future is,
quite frankly, one of the most
entertaining movies you can see this
seasoq.
The plot involves Marty McFly, a
teenager In 1985, who, through the ato a
slightiy mad professor (played to the
uproarious hilt by Christopher Ltoyd) and
his Delorian time-machine, somehow
ends up in the 1950's.
A great deal of the humor in the film
stems from Fox's frustrating attempts to
communtoate to a 1950's worto with 1985
lingo, even to the point of convincing the
mad scientist that he's from the future
and is friends with him in 1985;
"K you're from the future," the doubting
professor asks, "Who is the President of
the United States in 1985?"
"Ronald Reagan." Fox answers.
"The movie actor?!" Lloyd replies with
a laugh, "And I suppose Jane Wyman is
the first lady!"
The film moves at a whiriwind pace. In
fact, if you stop watching to ask the
person next to you what a charactor may
have just said, you'll almost surely miss
something else.
As for the cast. Fox Is one of the most
amiable personalities to grace the screen
for quite some time, and as mentioned
earlier,
Lloyd is delightful as the
Edsel-minded professor.
Lea fAII the Right Moves> Thompson, _
Crispin (Fridav the 13th. the Fin^f
Chapter^ Qtover, and Wendy Jo Sperber
all put in warm performances as Fox's
wino mother, wimpy father and gorgeous
girlfriend, respectively.
Directed by Robert momancina tha
S t o n e d Zemechis with executive
producer Steven Spielberg, Back to tha
Future has been an enormous financial
success to date, grossing over $150
million.
Back to the Future is one of those
movies that you can see over and over
again wihtout getting tired of it, which Is
probably the best review you can give to
a film.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Dear Mr. Walters:
This arttole is in response to your
sports edKorial printed in the November
22 isaue of the Eagla Eye.
Firat of ail, let me make it very clear
that this is not an attack on Coach Fisher
or the team, but rather on your
presentation of the facts. It is my
intention to convey the facts in a mora
realistto manner.
The accomplishments that you
referred to in, your article (Coach of the
Year, PSAC title) are accolades of the
past. Let me focus on the more recent
past. 1
Fact I: Three consecutive losing
seasons in the past three seasons, in
additton, you stated that Coach Fisher
has had only four losing seasons. Let
me remind you that he has bean head
coach for only eight seasons.
Fact il: Coach Fisher's career record
as head coach at Lock Haven is 33-47-1
for an approximate winning percentage of
.407.
EacLUl: Three-fourths of your arttoia
focused on the 1979 championship team.
However, you failed to print the fact that
it was an Inherited' team.
Also, wa believe that the true marl( of a
collegiate coach is revealed four years
after his initial season. This allows for
the coach to recruit and buito his team.
Once again, this Is by no means a
personal attack on Coach Fisher or the
players, it is my opinton that Lod^ Haven
has seen good talent in recent years.
Sincerely,
Bob Reynolds

Thanksgiving Reflections
Thanl student.
First and foremost there is that wonderful bird that donates its life to the
satisfaction of ali student's that haven't tasted home cooking in months.
Second there's good ole' mom, scurrying around the kitchen producing all
those wonderful smells and delicious iool Third is a table piled so high with delightful dishes that it may collapse right in
fat Aunt Bertha's lap.
Forth is that deep and inviting couch in front of a roaring fire with a
bone-caishing football game on the idiot tube.
Fifth there's the first guiltless nap you've taken in 11 weeks.
That's a normal Thanksgiving. But, how about adding one more thought to
that routine. Just take a few moments and really be thankful for the many
benefits that you do have. That, I believe, is the original purpose behind the
day.
Now it's time for the annual Editor/l-lunter Curse. May the turkeys of every
professor who plans on giving a test on Monday (First Day of Buck Season) crawl
off their plates and flap their little drumsticksrightout the window.

To the editor and ali on campus,
Nov 21 was designated an
international fast day by a reputable
agency called Oxfam America, which
funds self-help development projects
and disaster relief in Africa, Asia, and
Latin America and also distributes
excellent materials to inform Americans
on issues of devetopement and hunger.
I'm wondering to whom It is news that
LHU was a participant in this effort.
Information on this was placed all over
campus, on campus TV, in the campus
newspaper, on Cox Cable, and over 300
individual memos were sent to
administratton, faculty, and staff, inviting
them to participate by skipping one meal
or fasting from solid food all day and
contributing food money to Oxfam, whtoh
Is in a position to make good use of it.
i need to say that over 350 LHU
students volunteered their meal ticket
numbers for Nov 21 so that about $300
worth of food and food-related products
could be saved and given by Bentley
food service to "More Than Bread," whtoh
helps local needy people.
Two factors have both saddened and
angered me. For one, only seven brave
students showed up at noon in Bentley to
match their fasting with prayer (For the
hungry and for us who have too much).
That saddened me. The other angered
me. i went to the faculty dining room
around 1 p.m. on Nov 21 to check with
the hostess on how many faculty, staff,
and administration were fasting and what
donations had t>een given. The hostess
was not there, but the donatton t)Ox was.
It contained a 3 by 5 card folded about
three times with this written on it: "What
about our own people here in the U.S.
first?" That was it.
Faculty and staff on this campus can
moan and groan about the apathy and
narrow-mindedness of students here.
Where is the leadership? Some of you
may btow this off by saying, "That naive,
do-gooder nun—what does she know?"
I'd like to talk with people sometime-if
people would ever come to talk—and
share some of what I know and think, and
learn abo>jt what you know and think.
By the way, thanks to the three people
who sent ciiecks for Oxfam in today's
mall.
And can you guess how
much—total—was put into the two
donation boxes-in the faculty dining
room and the PUB? $6.2a

Sr Maureen McDonnell, O.P.
A TRIBUTE TO SUSAN HALL
By Oavid Gittelman
/ #>ink the Eagla Ey owes Sue Hall
an epilogue. Something tttat was missing
from your front page story of Tuesday,
Novemt>er 19 was Sue Hall, ttte woman.
You covered Sue Hall, the incident,
the tragedy, the 'story." But I knew her,
and there was something miasing.
I tmpe you wili print this for her friends,
her family and her colleagues, so that
they have something more to rememlier
and treasure than our own individual
memories and the reminder of a tem'ble,
unexplained death.
Sue Hall was a hard worker. She was
an "A" student, and had Just deckled that
she wanted to major in French. At 27,
she regretted not beginning college
straight out of high achool.
The burden of working part time and
going to school part time was ever
present in Sue's rife. Her answer to the
problem, however, was to work as long
and as hard as she needed to in both
aspects of her life to achieve a quality
and standard she fett comfortable with.
This quality was always of the highest.
Sue was a vital, alive person. Being
around her energized me, and I'm sure
she has affected others similarly. She
had a highly-developed sense of right
and wrong, and wouldn't stand for
circumstances she thought were unjust.
She had a mind, and she had a mouth;
she knew how to use tx>th of them. She
was never afraid or hesitant to form her
own opinkins and to stand by them, and
she waa never chaed-mlnded ermugh to
not listen to someone else's.
Sue was always very k>yal, and she
valued loyalty in others. She inspired
friends to be good friends,
and
acquaintances
to
be
cordial
acquaintances.
Her sense of humor was perhaps the
most outstanding part of her personality
to one first meeting her (I remember,
because it was not so long ago that I first
met her).
She smiled a lot - it was her nature.
Stte kjved a good pun now and then. She
woukl often launch into a funny accent or
dialect when describing something.
Sue Hail always kxiked for the best in
people.
She almost always found
something to like in each person.
When I think about Sue, and the fact
that she's not here anymore, I think that I
have hst a friend that I had only, it
seems, begun to know at all.
I think that she wouki confide in me
when she was mad at something that was
going on; that she trusted me with things
that were important to her.
I think that she had vacation time left
that she wont get a chance to take, and
that's not fair. / think that we used to talk
alx)ut going out for a beer sometimes
when things got rough, and we never got
a (^arKe to.
I think that people like Sue arent
supposed to just leave. And I dont
understand why she had to.
It's hard for me to be at aii positive that
Sue isnt a part of my everyday life
anymore. But I remember the words to a
song that's t>een in my life for a while
now, and they sort of symbolize what i
hope she has found. I thought of these
lyrics as I drove home from her wake,
and they made me cry.
fii close with these lyrics, by Stephen
Schwartz, from the show pippin.
Rivers t)ehng where they can ramble
Eagles behng where they can fly
I've got to be where my spirit can run
frea
Got to find my comer of the sky

What happens when an '80's hotshot
finds himself trapped in 1955? Good
Questton. Back to the Future has all the
answers. And then some.
Starring Michael J. (Tamily Ties") Fox
In the starring role, Back to the Future is,
quite frankly, one of the most
entertaining movies you can see this
seasoq.
The plot involves Marty McFly, a
teenager In 1985, who, through the ato a
slightiy mad professor (played to the
uproarious hilt by Christopher Ltoyd) and
his Delorian time-machine, somehow
ends up in the 1950's.
A great deal of the humor in the film
stems from Fox's frustrating attempts to
communtoate to a 1950's worto with 1985
lingo, even to the point of convincing the
mad scientist that he's from the future
and is friends with him in 1985;
"K you're from the future," the doubting
professor asks, "Who is the President of
the United States in 1985?"
"Ronald Reagan." Fox answers.
"The movie actor?!" Lloyd replies with
a laugh, "And I suppose Jane Wyman is
the first lady!"
The film moves at a whiriwind pace. In
fact, if you stop watching to ask the
person next to you what a charactor may
have just said, you'll almost surely miss
something else.
As for the cast. Fox Is one of the most
amiable personalities to grace the screen
for quite some time, and as mentioned
earlier,
Lloyd is delightful as the
Edsel-minded professor.
Lea fAII the Right Moves> Thompson, _
Crispin (Fridav the 13th. the Fin^f
Chapter^ Qtover, and Wendy Jo Sperber
all put in warm performances as Fox's
wino mother, wimpy father and gorgeous
girlfriend, respectively.
Directed by Robert momancina tha
S t o n e d Zemechis with executive
producer Steven Spielberg, Back to tha
Future has been an enormous financial
success to date, grossing over $150
million.
Back to the Future is one of those
movies that you can see over and over
again wihtout getting tired of it, which Is
probably the best review you can give to
a film.
