T o The Editor:
By now you have all examined my opponent's
14-point
peace plan. What do all those
points really s a y ? I c a n ' t understand h i s motive in listing some
accomplishments of the Student
Government, but then what does
my opponent know about student
government anyway? For now, I
would like to l i s t some of the
claims my opponent has made in
an a t e m p t to justify h i s election;
l.He admits that the activity fee h a s not increased and
pledges that he won't raise it
either. Then w h a t ' s the ha.ssle?
Who said "Students for S t u d e n t s "
were going to r a i s e it? In a letter to the editor dated January
13, 1972 my opponent stated.
" I n all likelihood the SCC fee
will rise if the people elected in
December ("Students for Stud e n t s " ) remain in o f f i c e . " It was
$30 per semester then, and it
still i s .
2.He contends that the increase in enrollment is responsible for the increase in the budget. We have increased the budget not by increased enrollment
but by instituting money-saving
programs (like leasing vans instead of renting b u s e s from Kephart.)
3.He states that we have
not taken full advantage of our
corporate s t a t u s . Ask him if he
has ever seen the Adier, Faunce
and Leonard Report (our coporate structure). How can anyone
who has had no experience in
student government even make a
judgment like this?
4.He contends that the money spent on the James Gang Concert was spent unwisely. Odd
a s it may seem, this grouo was
eelected in an all campus referendum. Secondly, if my opponent
cen come up with a better idea,
why didn't he do it last year?
5.He asks why the Faculty
heven't purchased the faculty
n> c a r d . He need not psk any
longer. This year 69 faculty
members (33%) have purchased
the ID card. T h i s is up from
eight the previous semester.
6.He wants more bicycles
and canoes, but does he suggest
what he is going to do with them
once he gets them? Your present
Student Government has already
sponsored three canoe races with
WiUiamsport Area Canoe Club,
and we have organized the use
of SCC bicycles in fund-raising
activities. Through our efforts
the college has ordered bicycle
racks for all dormitories.
7.He pats the Student Government on the back for its Judicial System, then he makes a
non-sensical statement about
student s e r v i c e s . So what's the

9.Again he congratulates the
Student Government for bringing
birth control services lo (lie
school, and h e ' s right; -I is
about time. Who did i f "Students
for S t u d e n t s . "
10.He wants to print the faculty evaluation in a " p o l i l i r a l
n e w s p a p e r . " The Purpose of the
faculty evaluation is to aid tenure committees in their d e c i s i o n s ,
not to slander faculty members.
It's too bad my opponent doesn't
know t h i s .
11.He s a y s he is gciing to
get a Student Directory. Watch
out Mr. F i s h , it may be in your
hands hefore next Monday.
12.His last campaign promise is a change in S»"dent Government. His last eleven items
list only half the changes 'Students for S t u d e n t s " have already
made. What do the " S t u d e n t s for
S t u d e n t s " stand for: a continuation of the strongest most innovative Student Government in the
State College System.
But this is not a l l ; there are
a few more points which my opponent has failed to mention. As
you probably know. C o l . Latta,
Director of Student Union Activities has resigned. We will be hiring a new director next s e m e s t e r
That means we will have one
rookie involved in student government. Who is going to bring
the experience to student government that is necessary for
its e f f i c i e n t operation. Certainly not Students for Progressive
Refo-m. They don't even know
what SCC is all about.
Another thing, my opponent
proposes televisions on every
dorm floor, more equipment in the
PUB, a natural ice-skating rink,
e t c . T h e s e are all great ideas
but they're just that unless you
have got the money to pay for
them. Does he suggest any
money-raising programis? We
already h a v e . This coming semester the Student Government
has received permission from
Harrisburg to sponsor a used
book s a l e . This will not only
save money and time on the
s t u d e n t s ' part, but will bring
in revenue that will benefit all
students.

Letters To The
It, the Fditor:
So far in llus sUideiit govornment campaign, both prntios
have tried to stress Ihoir atirihutes. Students for Progress
and Reform stand for improveiTient in student services and a
general " s e c o n d Kxik" at the
Studeni Senate.
What has the SCC slate
said in the way of proposed services and generally any fuluro
ideas? Of course, it's fine to
list the achievements of years
past hut all of the people nov,
running for SCC office did not
hold an executive position in Mr.
Infield's Administration \\ iirthington's .Administration.
Mr. Dows attacked our slate
for what he believes to he our
inability to finance our programs.
1 cannot see why Doug Dows cannot see the simplicity of not
spending large sums of money in
one area, for example, high priced
rock groups or an expensive event, and s p e n d i n g this money in
other a r e a s . It doesn't take that
much money lo improve the recreational equipment in the PUB,
e t c . Also, it doesn't take that
much money to s e t up a natural
outdoor skating rink during the
winter; this is just another idea
that could be researched. Our
s l a t e feels that a student government should set its priorities but
that presently these priorities
are not quite as responsive a s
they should be lo the general
student population. Certainly we
believe that Mr. Bower's Administration has initiated some important programs such as an attempt to get the stale govern-

ment to directly help fund Lock
Iiaven student a c t i v i t i e s .
We
realize thai much of this work
niusl be 'one through Harrisburg.
the Board oi Trustees, and the
Adininistralioii.
Yet, we feel
that we as a slule can do this
job plus bring in more ideas not
onl\" i^f our own hut a l s o student
ideas.
When Doug Dows a s s e r t s
that the student government is
one of the strongest in the State
College .svsiem, he must mean
only finai;eialK, But, when the
SCC mi.st lieg students to help
on committees, what kind of
strength in government is that?
Is s u c c e s s measured only by
money?
First of all, we purpose to
enact a Committee on Committees
lo help coordi.iate the work of all
of the e i : , m i t t e e s .
This committee would set up all other
commii'ees by s e l e c t i n g and appointing senators to committees
where their interests can be best

is to establish a credit system
for Senators and the Editors of
the Eagle E y e . This would be
built somewhat around being awarded one credit in Social Science for efficirnlly carrying out
the duties ol ..
lor.
This
would be somewnat llie case for
the Editors but we feel that their
job, as large as it i s , demands
something in the neighborhood of
two credits in E n g l i s h . As are
most proposals, this is only one
suggestions with the intention
of seeing it done if we are elected.
Another improvement, we feel,.
is lo add representation of organ-

T o the Editor :
After attending the open
forum of the SCC candidates,
it is our desire to relate our
opinions concerning t h e election.
It is our belief that students
can not chose officers to operate
their government by reading posters or hand-outs.
It's quite disheartening when
only one room full of students
from an entire campus are interested enough to attend a
meeting involving the student
government of our college. Our
main concern is the number
of s t u d e n t s who will vote according to popular beliefs, while
remaining ignorant of the true
i s s u e s involved. We feel that
the students can not effectively
and unbiasly choose officers
without hearing the candidates

voice their individual i s s u e s .
If students are not interested
enough to attend one ineeting
concerning the future qif their
student government, thein they,
as individuals, are not Sincerely
i n t e r e s t e d in the functions and
activities of their college. It
is on this premise that we
conclude that these students
have no substantial right t o
take part in the selection of
the force that will regulate the
functions of this campus.
Our sole purpose |n writing
this letter is to urge students
to seek the true i s s u e s and
facts
behind each s l a t e of
candidates before voting. The
last thing we need controling
our government is six people
elected on the b a s i s of ()opularity. If you don't feel your
student government is important,
then don't vote. But, in addition,
don't complain if your d e s i r e s
are not met.
Sincerely,
Debbie Hoffman

This suggestion that televisions be placed on all dorm
floors is great until he adds
who is going to finance this
program - the dorm councils.
This is another way that the
present student government has
been saving s t u d e n t s ' money.

To the Editor;
I would like to support our
new senatorial
representation
in
the
Student
Cooperative
Council. It is true that the " P r o gressive Reform S l a t e " feels
that it is unjust and umproperly
represented s y s t e m . The reason
to do away with organizational
representation was to form a
stronger studeni government.
Formerly, those who composed
the SCC had to devote half their
time to the organizations and
half their time to the SCC. In
many cases the SCC suffered
a l s o , with this form of government, if the average student of
lA)ck Haven State was not in
any organization he was not
represenled-a
representation
he is entitled to as a member
ot the Student Cooperative
Counci I.
With the new senatorial
system every student, on and
off
campus, is
represented,
rhere is one senator for every
one hundred students attending
Lock Haven State College. I
ice I there is no olher representative form equal lo our standard
al this time.
SCC Parliamentarian

Larry Wise

i r a t i o n s to residence representation in the Senate. We feel this
would add more people to the student, keep all interest groups a s
well as funded organizations in
the Senate, and to open still more
a r e a s of student i d e a s . Each Senator then could be appointed to or
choose one committee without the
overworking of a few students.
E a c h senator would be responsible to only one committee ins t e a d of how it now s t a n d s . This
i s directly opposite *o our opponents who now serve on most committees themselves and therefore
cannot really dedicate enough time
to each individual committee as
could fifty people, for example.
It is awfully difficult to do a good
job when your time is spread so
thin.
In conclusion, the Students
for Progress and Reform stand for
a more r e s p o n s i v e student government by simply bringing in more
people and new ideas and conceptsOur s l a t e a s k s you to think over
both our ideas and Mr. Dows and
his s l a t e ' s c o n c e p t s .
All we
would like you to do is vote November 13, the way you feel is best
Don'l pass up your opportunity to
vote. This election will have a
strange influence on future elections.
Thank you,

Election 72! One is past
but a very important one is yet
to come. You are being asked
to choose the offici'-rs of the
SCC, your s'.udenl government.
I would like to request that
each student take the time to
review what each candidate rep r e s e n t s . There are s i x , Doug
Dows, Larry Wise, Jackie Kircher, Mike Holter, Kathy Correll and Sally Hunt who have
something to represent. Four
are members of the present Executive Committee that has done
more to further student government at LHS than any in the
p a s t . More work is presently
being done in student government by students than ever before. Take the time to a s k Mr.
F i s h how much of his time he
has ever devoted to work in student government at this c o l l e g e ?
Ask him how many SCC meetings
he has ever attended; or any
member of his slate for that
matter? How many committees
has he ever served on?
Mr. F i s h may reply that he
h a s n ' t had the opportunity to do
s o . Fine! But why not?

Steve Fish has promised
progressive reform and I agree
that there is a great need for
reform. To bring about reform
one must first know enough about
what has to be changed. I sincerely don'l believe that Mr.
F i s h knows what needs to be
reformed or what progress really
i s . What is termed as progressive reform could well be regression and deterioration.
The SCC may not be perfect now but electing a s l a t e
that has little idea what student government is could only
be worse. Vote on Monday, and
insure that your quarter of a
million dollars \/ill be used
properly and effici ;nlly.
