College volunteers needed
to provide companionship
By JOHN O'DOHERTY
Staff Reporter
If you've ever thought about
death and its almighty impact
on every facet of life, there is a
volunteer program at LHS that
could certainly enhance, and
possibly change, your impression of this stark verity.
The Susque-View volunteers
are Lock Haven students who
find the time and zeal to
befriend two elderly persons at
the Susque-View Nursing
Home for a full semester. They
are young people who don't
need recognition for fulfillment, but rather understand
human dependence and are
seeking a means to work
within its realm.
The Susque-View[)rogram is
coordinated by Mrs. Dolores
Lynch (Bentley 10). Lynch is
looking for students who can
spare one hour a week for the
whole semester, to meet with
at least two Susque-View residents (a half-hour per person)
and relate human love and
respect to them.
"These people feel a sense
of abandonment from being
stored away," Lynch said. "In
many cases, the students are
their only visitors - the only
ears to listen to them." Lynch
commented on the physical
condition of the home's residents. "Sometimes a student
will go talk to his or her
assigned resident, and hear
the same story week after
week. Some of the more
deteriorated minds can't remember from week to week.
Some of them never comprehend that they are meeting
with the same person every
week."
There are, of course, many
rewarding moments to be
experienced as a volunteer.
Every year, with the financial
support of college and community residents, the volunteers give the home a Christmas party where everyone
receives a stocking with gifts.
Although the majority of the
old folks can't move around
very readily, there are some
who are able to come to the
campus and view a presentation - the Aquafins, or perhaps
a play.
If you think you may be
interested in stifling the senility that thrives on inactivity, or
if you would just like to know
that you're doing something to
help someone, find yourself in
307rRaub at 1:00 p.m. tomorrow, October 9.
Billiards come to campus
By FRED SCHULTZ
Staff Reporter
Many clubs and organizations of different interests
have been formed on this
campus in the past few years.
The newest of these is the
Pocket Billiards Club which
has been set up by Professor
Lee Van Horn and ftofessor
Dean Phelps.
Although the first meeting
of the club only turned out
three people. Van Horn is
hoping that more people will
attend the next one. He stated,
"We didn't have much publicity for the first meeting. I know
there are more pool players
than that on campus."
Van Horn seems to have a
genuine interest in billiards
and in the new organization.

For some time now, this column has examined individual
fi-aternities, sororities, and their members. One topic that has yet to
be examined is the origin of the Greek system as it appears today.
This year is not only ine bicentennial of our countiy, but also of
the fraternity in America. The fraternity idea itself grew out of the
secret society that was brougiit by our forefathers from Europe,
with the first college fraternity beginning in 1776 with the founding
of Phi Beta Kappa at the College of William and Mary in
Williamsburg, Virginia. This new fraternity was an outgrowth of a
club with a very unusual name, "The Flat Hat Club," and was
founded by Thomas Jefferson, among others. Through the years,
the older college fraternities have changed and eventually even this
first social fraternity evolved into the honor society that we know
today.
The fraternity idea caught on as men found a need for small
groups within the larger college community. In 1825, Kappa Alpha
was formed at Union College and was soon followed by Sigma Phi
and Delta Phi. These three fraternities are known as the "Union
Triad," and set the pattern for the fraternity system. In the early
years, expansion was confined to New York and New England, with
only one chapter found in the Middle West, at Miami University.
This first fraternity organized west of theAlleghenieswas called
Beta Theta Phi, and was quickly joined by Phi Delta Theta and
Sigma Chi. Together, these three groups are known as the "Miami
Triad."
What has happened since the founding of these first fledgling
groups is history, but the Greek system has survived two wars and
varying social climates to reach the point where they are today.
Even though some of the older chapters have been lost, the
fraternity today remains as strong, or stronger than it has in the
past. Reflecting this trend, in 1971 Tau Kappa Epsilon became the
first college fraternity to charter its 300th chapter.
At the same time fraternities were becoming firmly entrenched in
the college way of life, education for women was increasing in
popularity. Before long, the fraternity concept was picked up
university women, and in 1870 Kappa Alpha Theta was founded at
Indiana Asbury College and Kappa Kappa Gamma at Monmouth.
These two organizations were the first Greek-letter fraternities for
women.

Soccer team depending on its discipline
By GARY BRUBAKER
Staff Reporter
Last year the Bald
Eagle booters defeated today's
opponents Spring Garden 4-2
on McCollum field; Lenny
Long and Tom Rowan providing the Haven's offensive
punch with three and one
goals respectively.
Rowan and Long, last
year's team co-captains were
lost through graduation, leaving the undefeated Bald
Eagles with the thought of just
who will be the hero or heroes,
as the case may be, in this
year's matchup between the
two teams.
Lock Haven, 5-0-1 and
currently ranked seventh in
the East, dare not put the "cart
before the horse" in looking
ahead to Saturday's clash with
East Stroudsburg before
facing today's foe in Spring
Garden.
The matchup set for
3:00 p.m. pits the Eagles
against what Coach Herrmann
calls "a well-skilled group of
individuals," but feels "our
strength over them will be our
organization, discipline, and
conditioning."

LHS provides Homecoming opposition
For the secona week in a
row the Lock Haven State
College football team will
furnish the opposition for a big
homecoming day game. Last
Saturday it was at Clarion
where before an overflow
crowd of 7,500 fans the Golden
Eagles topped Lock Haven,
28-0. This weekend it will be
the Bald Eagles, now 0-3 on
the season, traveling to Shippensburg State to face the Red
Raiders team in a Pennsylvania
Cnference Western Division
clash.
Then the following Saturday, October 18, it will be a
third straight homecoming day
game for Lock Haven; only this
time it will be at the Bald
Eagle's own new Hubert Jack
Stadium with Edinboro State
College furnishing the opposition.
The Shippensburg-LHSC
series has been even up the
past six years, but in the
overall series since 1929 the
Red Raiders hold a 17-12-2
edge.
Shippensburg, off to a
good start this sea'son, has a
4-1 record with wins over West
Virginia Tech, 17-7, Bloomsburg State, 41-0, Kutztown,
21-0, and last week shocked
Slippery Rock State, 21-16.
The loss was to Indiana
University of Pennsylvania,
19-7.
For the second straight
year it will be brother against
brother. The Bald Eagles
sophomore Defensive Halfback Doug Posey will be facing
the Raiders top running back
brother Rene Posey in the
game.
At Clarion, Tailback Steve
DeLisle led the Eagles offensive efforts with 106 yards in
17 carries. On defense tackle
Jim Doran played on outstanding contest in recording seven
unassisted tackles and in on 11
assists.
For the season veteran
senior quarterback Dave Bower has completed 31 passes of
61 attempted for 263 yards.

Rupert competes at ECAC's
Lock Haven State had five
golfers competing at the annual ECAC fall golf tournament held at Hidden Springs
Country Club in Horsham, Pa.
last Thursday.
Bald Eagle freshman Jeff
Rupert, former star performer
at Bald Eagle-Nittany High
School, came within one stroke
of gaining a berth in the
individual championship as he
carded an 80 score. This is the
best showing ever by a LHSC
linksmen at the big event
according to Eagle head coach
Stan Daley.
The 10 lowest score golfers
out of 120 competing from the
top colleges in the East now
advance to the championship
round to be held at Doylestown
Country Club on October 16.
The next lowest qualifier
for LHSC was sophomore John
Gaenzle.
Despite the Eagle's
undefeated status, a pessimistic Coach Herrmann feels
there is always room for
improvement. "We've got to
piit our game together early in
the contest," the soccer head
mentor stressed. "We must
start out stronger because a
strong team just won't let us
come back, like we've been
doing, against a few of our
previous opponents. We need
continued work on our mobility
in penetrating our opponent's
defense and attacking through
his weak points."
"Our offense has
looked good but our fullback
line has tended to look a little
shaky our last few games,"
added the Eagle head coach.
Hoping to work out the
bugs in the offense and
defense in preparation for
Saturday's game against ESC,
Lock Haven will send the
forward line of Mike Seigfried,
Roger Bernecker, and Dean
Wilson against the Bobcats
with Kevin Crump, Bob
Wright and Jon Conner at the
starting halfback positions.
Mike M c C a r t n e y ,
Sandy Bush, Al Rice, and
Mark Sildve get the nod at
fullbacks while Steve Tanner,
having a super year, will be in
the goal.

Eagle Wing profits increase
By JULIA McGOVERN
Staff Reporter
Last year at this time prices
of food tended to be erratic
and unpredictable. Because of
this, the Eagle Wing in the
PUB suffered a loss in profits.
This year the Eagle Wing
shows a gain in profits due to
the stabilization of food prices.
Comparing the periods of
July, 1974 to October 1974 and
July 1975 to October 1975,
sales have dropped by approximately $100. in the Eagle
Wing. "This isn't a significant
or worrt*Mne," says Mr.
Nagy, direct9r of the PUB. The
drop in sale has partly been
attributed to the tremendous
improvement of the food in the
cafeteria, with less students
eating their dinners in the
Eagle Wing.
So far this year prices
charged by the Eagle Wing
have not been raised, but they
are due to increase shortly.
Although prices of food have
stabilized over the year they
have done so at a higher level,
resulting in the impending
increase. The Eagle Wing
buys their food from three
different sources in order to
get the lowest possible prices
for the students.

possibly change, your impression of this stark verity.
The Susque-View volunteers
are Lock Haven students who
find the time and zeal to
befriend two elderly persons at
the Susque-View Nursing
Home for a full semester. They
are young people who don't
need recognition for fulfillment, but rather understand
human dependence and are
seeking a means to work
within its realm.
The Susque-View[)rogram is
coordinated by Mrs. Dolores
Lynch (Bentley 10). Lynch is
looking for students who can
spare one hour a week for the
whole semester, to meet with
at least two Susque-View residents (a half-hour per person)
and relate human love and
respect to them.
"These people feel a sense
of abandonment from being
stored away," Lynch said. "In
many cases, the students are
their only visitors - the only
ears to listen to them." Lynch
commented on the physical
condition of the home's residents. "Sometimes a student
will go talk to his or her
assigned resident, and hear
the same story week after
week. Some of the more
deteriorated minds can't remember from week to week.
Some of them never comprehend that they are meeting
with the same person every
week."
There are, of course, many
rewarding moments to be
experienced as a volunteer.
Every year, with the financial
support of college and community residents, the volunteers give the home a Christmas party where everyone
receives a stocking with gifts.
Although the majority of the
old folks can't move around
very readily, there are some
who are able to come to the
campus and view a presentation - the Aquafins, or perhaps
a play.
If you think you may be
interested in stifling the senility that thrives on inactivity, or
if you would just like to know
that you're doing something to
help someone, find yourself in

Billiards come to campus
By FRED SCHULTZ
Staff Reporter
Many clubs and organizations of different interests
have been formed on this
campus in the past few years.
The newest of these is the
Pocket Billiards Club which
has been set up by Professor
Lee Van Horn and ftofessor
Dean Phelps.
Although the first meeting
of the club only turned out
three people. Van Horn is
hoping that more people will
attend the next one. He stated,
"We didn't have much publicity for the first meeting. I know
there are more pool players
than that on campus."
Van Horn seems to have a
genuine interest in billiards
and in the new organization.
He attended the United States

For some time now, this column has examined individual
fi-aternities, sororities, and their members. One topic that has yet to
be examined is the origin of the Greek system as it appears today.
This year is not only ine bicentennial of our countiy, but also of
the fraternity in America. The fraternity idea itself grew out of the
secret society that was brougiit by our forefathers from Europe,
with the first college fraternity beginning in 1776 with the founding
of Phi Beta Kappa at the College of William and Mary in
Williamsburg, Virginia. This new fraternity was an outgrowth of a
club with a very unusual name, "The Flat Hat Club," and was
founded by Thomas Jefferson, among others. Through the years,
the older college fraternities have changed and eventually even this
first social fraternity evolved into the honor society that we know
today.
The fraternity idea caught on as men found a need for small
groups within the larger college community. In 1825, Kappa Alpha
was formed at Union College and was soon followed by Sigma Phi
and Delta Phi. These three fraternities are known as the "Union
Triad," and set the pattern for the fraternity system. In the early
years, expansion was confined to New York and New England, with
only one chapter found in the Middle West, at Miami University.
This first fraternity organized west of theAlleghenieswas called
Beta Theta Phi, and was quickly joined by Phi Delta Theta and
Sigma Chi. Together, these three groups are known as the "Miami
Triad."
What has happened since the founding of these first fledgling
groups is history, but the Greek system has survived two wars and
varying social climates to reach the point where they are today.
Even though some of the older chapters have been lost, the
fraternity today remains as strong, or stronger than it has in the
past. Reflecting this trend, in 1971 Tau Kappa Epsilon became the
first college fraternity to charter its 300th chapter.
At the same time fraternities were becoming firmly entrenched in
the college way of life, education for women was increasing in
popularity. Before long, the fraternity concept was picked up
university women, and in 1870 Kappa Alpha Theta was founded at
Indiana Asbury College and Kappa Kappa Gamma at Monmouth.
These two organizations were the first Greek-letter fraternities for
women.

Soccer team depending on its discipline
By GARY BRUBAKER
Staff Reporter
Last year the Bald
Eagle booters defeated today's
opponents Spring Garden 4-2
on McCollum field; Lenny
Long and Tom Rowan providing the Haven's offensive
punch with three and one
goals respectively.
Rowan and Long, last
year's team co-captains were
lost through graduation, leaving the undefeated Bald
Eagles with the thought of just
who will be the hero or heroes,
as the case may be, in this
year's matchup between the
two teams.
Lock Haven, 5-0-1 and
currently ranked seventh in
the East, dare not put the "cart
before the horse" in looking
ahead to Saturday's clash with
East Stroudsburg before
facing today's foe in Spring
Garden.
The matchup set for
3:00 p.m. pits the Eagles
against what Coach Herrmann
calls "a well-skilled group of
individuals," but feels "our
strength over them will be our
organization, discipline, and
conditioning."

LHS provides Homecoming opposition
For the secona week in a
row the Lock Haven State
College football team will
furnish the opposition for a big
homecoming day game. Last
Saturday it was at Clarion
where before an overflow
crowd of 7,500 fans the Golden
Eagles topped Lock Haven,
28-0. This weekend it will be
the Bald Eagles, now 0-3 on
the season, traveling to Shippensburg State to face the Red
Raiders team in a Pennsylvania
Cnference Western Division
clash.
Then the following Saturday, October 18, it will be a
third straight homecoming day
game for Lock Haven; only this
time it will be at the Bald
Eagle's own new Hubert Jack
Stadium with Edinboro State
College furnishing the opposition.
The Shippensburg-LHSC
series has been even up the
past six years, but in the
overall series since 1929 the
Red Raiders hold a 17-12-2
edge.
Shippensburg, off to a
good start this sea'son, has a
4-1 record with wins over West
Virginia Tech, 17-7, Bloomsburg State, 41-0, Kutztown,
21-0, and last week shocked
Slippery Rock State, 21-16.
The loss was to Indiana
University of Pennsylvania,
19-7.
For the second straight
year it will be brother against
brother. The Bald Eagles
sophomore Defensive Halfback Doug Posey will be facing
the Raiders top running back
brother Rene Posey in the
game.
At Clarion, Tailback Steve
DeLisle led the Eagles offensive efforts with 106 yards in
17 carries. On defense tackle
Jim Doran played on outstanding contest in recording seven
unassisted tackles and in on 11
assists.
For the season veteran
senior quarterback Dave Bower has completed 31 passes of
61 attempted for 263 yards.

Rupert competes at ECAC's
Lock Haven State had five
golfers competing at the annual ECAC fall golf tournament held at Hidden Springs
Country Club in Horsham, Pa.
last Thursday.
Bald Eagle freshman Jeff
Rupert, former star performer
at Bald Eagle-Nittany High
School, came within one stroke
of gaining a berth in the
individual championship as he
carded an 80 score. This is the
best showing ever by a LHSC
linksmen at the big event
according to Eagle head coach
Stan Daley.
The 10 lowest score golfers
out of 120 competing from the
top colleges in the East now
advance to the championship
round to be held at Doylestown
Country Club on October 16.
The next lowest qualifier
for LHSC was sophomore John
Gaenzle.
Despite the Eagle's
undefeated status, a pessimistic Coach Herrmann feels
there is always room for
improvement. "We've got to
piit our game together early in
the contest," the soccer head
mentor stressed. "We must
start out stronger because a
strong team just won't let us
come back, like we've been
doing, against a few of our
previous opponents. We need
continued work on our mobility
in penetrating our opponent's
defense and attacking through
his weak points."
"Our offense has
looked good but our fullback
line has tended to look a little
shaky our last few games,"
added the Eagle head coach.
Hoping to work out the
bugs in the offense and
defense in preparation for
Saturday's game against ESC,
Lock Haven will send the
forward line of Mike Seigfried,
Roger Bernecker, and Dean
Wilson against the Bobcats
with Kevin Crump, Bob
Wright and Jon Conner at the
starting halfback positions.
Mike M c C a r t n e y ,
Sandy Bush, Al Rice, and
Mark Sildve get the nod at
fullbacks while Steve Tanner,
having a super year, will be in
the goal.

Eagle Wing profits increase
By JULIA McGOVERN
Staff Reporter
Last year at this time prices
of food tended to be erratic
and unpredictable. Because of
this, the Eagle Wing in the
PUB suffered a loss in profits.
This year the Eagle Wing
shows a gain in profits due to
the stabilization of food prices.
Comparing the periods of
July, 1974 to October 1974 and
July 1975 to October 1975,
sales have dropped by approximately $100. in the Eagle
Wing. "This isn't a significant
or worrt*Mne," says Mr.
Nagy, direct9r of the PUB. The
drop in sale has partly been
attributed to the tremendous
improvement of the food in the
cafeteria, with less students
eating their dinners in the
Eagle Wing.
So far this year prices
charged by the Eagle Wing
have not been raised, but they
are due to increase shortly.
Although prices of food have
stabilized over the year they
have done so at a higher level,
resulting in the impending
increase. The Eagle Wing
buys their food from three
different sources in order to
get the lowest possible prices
for the students.
