State Decision Due Soon
On Miller
No decision has yet been handed down by the Pennsylvania
Department of Education regarding Harry I. Miller's hearing in
Harrisburg yesterday. President
Richard T . Parsons represented
the college, and both he and
Miller presented their c a s e s to
Dr. George Hoffman, a s s i s t a n t
secretary of education.
The hearing was another s t e p
in Miller's fight to be reinstated
on LHS's faculty from which he
was dismissed last May for
" i m m o r a l i t y " and possible " a c t s
in violation of l a w . "
When
asked the basis of his c a s e .
Miller replied: " I t is my contention that the charges a g a i n s t
me have no s u b s t a n c e .
The
procedures violated my c o n s t i tutional rights and the rules of
the c o l l e g e . "
Dr. P a r s o n s ' stand has remained unchanged.
He stated that
" a s a college president, 1 cannot
permit a faculty member to get
paid $1500 with no proof of doing

any work.
Furthermore, this
faculty member teaches American
government, and 1 don't know
how any student could go to him
for instructions when he received
federal money and didn't do any
work."
The department of education
h a s heard the c a s e , and the final
decision will be rendered by Dr.
Kurtzman, secretary of education.
The LHS board of directors,
however, can overrule this decision.
Present at the hearing
were Dr. David Kurtzman, secretary of education; Dr. Fred
Miller, commissioner of higher

Warren
Morgan,
deputy
attorney general; an
AAUP
(American
Association
of University Professors) repres e n t a t i v e , and Ambrose Campana,
Miller's attorney.
When asked about the possibility of faculty support in the event
that the department of education
upholds the decision of the local
board of trustees and refuses to
recommend
h i s reinstatement,
Mr. Miller said: "I have no faith
in the faculty's ability to stand
up t o Dr. P a r s o n s . He spit in
their faces and they stood by
giggling and waiting for permission to wipe the spit off."

In a major dormitory change
during the summer, the Lock
Haven State administration has
approved a much more liberal
women's hours policy than was
previously in practice at the
college.
An
unprecedented
privilege
has been extended to juniors
and
senior
resident
women.
Miss Evelyn M. Nicholson, LHS
dean of women, approved a recommendation that these women be
given permission for unlimited
hours
on
Saturday
nights.
The approved recommendation,
passed by the Women's Residence
Hall Association, also called for
later sign-in times for all women
students.
For the first time, freshmen
coeds
will
have
extended
privileges. They will be permitted
to remain outside the dormitory
until 10:30 pm during the first
nine weeks of the beginning
semester. Following this time
period, the women may stay out
until 11 pm.
In 1967, freshmen women were
required to be in the residence
halls at 9 pm; last year the time
was
extended
one-half
hour.
However, if a freshmen coed
receives any low mid-semester
grades, these privileges will
be restricted.
Upperclass women will also
benefit from the new r.egulations.
Formerly 10:30 pm was the curfew during the week. This year,
sophmores have been given a
midnight sign-in time; juniors
are not required to be back in the
dorm until 1 am.
Over the weekends, sophmores
have even later hours — 1:30 am

week. This measure became necessary because of the
robbery which occurred this summer. Shoplifting w a s

on Friday and 2:30 am on Saturday. Juniors and seniors living
in the dorm must be in at 2 am
Friday. Sunday hours are midnight
for all women.
Senior women living off campus
have unlimited hours for every
evening.

Library Chaotic
Chaos still reigns at LHS
libraries, however, there are
certain procedures which can
help the student withdraw books.
All reference books, reserved
books, periodicals, and the card
catalogue are still located in
the old library. All other books
are now in the new Stevenson
Library.
The procedure for acquiring
library books was outlined by
Bruce
Thomas,
librarian.
Students are to utilize the card
catalogue in the old library and
submit a list of books needed to
the librarian.
Students can then pick up
their books three times daily.
If the list is submitted in the
morning the students can pick
up their books at noon. Those
students who submit books by
noon can expect delivery by
three; three o clock submissions
by six ; and those lists submitted after six can be picked up
the next morning.
Library hours have a l s o been
extended this year. The library
will be open from 7:30 am to
10 pm weekdays; 7:45 am to
4 pm Saturday; and 2 to 10 pmon Sunday.

was another factor for the guard's presence.

Two
LHS students
have
been charged and released on
bail in connection wit_h the
SCC bookstore robbery this
summer.
Raymond
Frank
Zale,
physical
education
major,
was charged with burglary
and
William
Frederick
Carpenter, senior elementary
major,
was charged
with
receiving
stolen
goods.
Both were arraigned before
alderman
Samuel
Walker
on
the
felony
charges.
There
are
approximately
12 other college s u s p e c t s
in the c a s e . Richard Bressler,
the county probation officer,
took charge of the juvenile
suspects.
According
to
Monroe
Hurwitz, bookstore manager, a p proximately $300 in merchandise
was stolen from the bookstore.

Entry to the bookstore was
gained through the roof.
Suspects climbed down pipes in the
air
conditioning system and
lifted the tiles from the ceiling.
Several items such a s gym
b a g s , c l a s s rings, magazines,
records, and a silver mug have
already been recovered.
After LHS officials identified
two students invoK^d, the c a s e
was turned over to the s t a t e
police for further investigation
According to Francis Cornelius,
dean of men, the s t u d e n t s ' parents
have
been
notified.
Cornelius stated that " I am also
disturbed by the emotional impact this matter had not only on
those involved, but also on the
parents of the arrested, t e a c h e r s ,
a d v i s o r s , and others in close
contact with t h e m . "
College officials will take no
disciplinary actions until the

court hands down its d e c i s i o n .
To discourage further incidents
of this nature, Hurwitz h a s undertaken several preventive s t e p s .
Students must leave all outer
wear, books, notebooks, and
brief-cases outside the bookstore
on the book racks and c l o t h e s
racks provided.
Also for the
first
time at LHS, security
guards will be on duty in the
bookstore during book rush.

Editorial
Correction:
In yesterday's
editorial
entitled
"Disaster
or
Growth," the statement
was
made that "He
{Harry I. Miller) himself
admitted
that he did
^egligiblef work on the
government project for
which he was paid." In
clarification Eagle Eye
would like to substitute
the word "contribution"
for the word "work."
Miller did admit that his
actual contribution to the
final report was "negligible, " but it was further
contended that he did do
actual research work on the
.project itself.

Commenting
on
Saturday
morning's intrasquad scrimmage
Herrmann s t a t e d , "We look
pretty good and definitely have
depth. We're moving the ball
much better than we ever have
and a s a result we're getting
better s h o t s . "
Attitude
and team moral
appear to be a big plus because
each individual knows he is
being pushed for his position.
L a s t y e a r ' s trio of captains
return again to lead the Bald
Eagle booters.
Halfback J a c k Infield directs
the attack and appears to be in
the right place at the right
time.
Goalie Bruce Parkhill is the
most noted of the tri-captains,
having been selected as the
first-team goalie on the 1968
C o a c h e s ' All-East All-American
team. Coach Hermann, speaking of Parkhill^ stated, " B r u c e
has all the qualities n e c e s s a r y
to be an outstanding goalie:
size,
speed, quickness, a
tremendous arm, and generous
amounts of c o u r a g e . "
The
third
captain,
Jim
Sleicher,
rewrote the
Bald
Eagle scoring books last year
with a record 18 g o a l s .
The Bald E a g l e s ' opponents
will provide the biggest and
toughest
schedule
in
LHS
history.
Some of the best schools in
the nation are on the s c h e d u l e .
East
Stroudsburg,
defending
champion,
and
Davis
and
Elkins,
defending
NAIA
champion are the most formidible foes the Bald E a g l e s will
tace.
T h e booters will open the
s e a s o n Saturday afternoon when
they
face
an Alunnni team
composed of 18 or 20 former
greats at LHS.
