Teacher Exam Dates Announced
College seniors preparing
to teach school may take the
National Teacher Examinations on any of the four different test dates announced
today by Educational Testing
Service, a nonprofit, educational
organization which
prepares and administers this
testing program.
New dates for the testing
of prospective teachers are:
November 10, 1973, and January 26, April 6, and July 20,
1974. The tests will be given
at nearly 500 locations
throughout the United States,
ETS said.
Results of the National
Teacher Examinations are
used by many large school
districts as one of the several
factors in the selection of new
teachers and by several states
for certification or licensing
of teachers. Some colleges
also require all seniors pre-

paring to teach to take the
examinations.
The school
systems and state departments
of education which use the
examination results are listed
in an NTE leaflet entitled
Score Users which may be obtained by writing to ETS.
On each full day of testing, prospective teachers may
take the Common Examinations which measure their
professional preparation and
general educational background and an Area Examination which measures their
mastery of the subject they
expect to teach.
prospective
teachers
should contact the school
systems in which they seek
employment, or their colleges,
for specific advice on which
examinations to take and on
which dates they should be
taken.

Foreign Flicks
Scheduled For Fail
Still another area of
entertainment soon to be available at Lock Haven State
is the series of films to be
shown throughout the 73-74
fall and spring semesters.
In the past, the audiences
have been composed mostly
of faculty members atlhough
the films are open to all. Students don't realize what they
are missing! These films are
not the dry, stuffy material
that most young people think
they are. A great variety is
offered with this year's selection. The fall semester selection will present all foreign
films while in the spring only
American films will be shown.
The foreiffi i'i\tes to be
shown this semester offer

both classics and comedies.
Many of the films are concerned with common life
situations. It is interesting
to see these problems handled by people of a totally
different culture with the
results
being sometimes
moralistic and sometimes
just plain furmy.
The films will be shown
every Sunday night in Ulmer
planetarium. There will be
a pre-view at 7:30 and the
feature showing at 8:00
The first film will be Ivan
the Terrible on September
18, 1973- So students, why
not attend? After all, watching movies seems to be a
pretty easy way to become
more cultured.

The Bulletin of Information for Candidates contains
a list of test centers, and
information about the examinations, as well as a Registration Form. Copies may be
obtained from college placement officers, school personnel departments, or directly
from National Teacher Examinations, Box 911, Educational Testing Service, Princeton,
New Jersey 08540 .

Those seniors and (acuity members who did
not have their photos
taken in the spring
should register on the
sign up sheet, posted
outside Raub 301. The
photographer will be on
campus Sept. 12, 13, &
14.

LH Greets British
For Third Year
In 1775 a cry of alarm
rang throughout the 13 colonies as the British soldiers
arrived. Now, in 1973, the
cry is one of welcome as
Lock Haven State College
once again hosts 16 students
and 2 professors from the
Nottingham College of Education, Nottingham, England.
The 12 women and six
men arrived on campus shortly after midnight, September
5. The students first met
with Dr. Hamblin and Dr.
Robinson in the afternoon of
the same day. John Whetton,
who will teach Physical
Education, and Eric Thurston, who will teach Mathematics, then met with the
English students to help
them select courses. Whetton
and Thurston will act as
counselors during this first
semester and will remain at
Lock Haven State after the
departure of the students
sometime in mid-January.
This is the third year
that the two colleges have
participated in the exchange
program. The program operates on a one-to-one basis
in which each student pays
the fees applicable to his
own school.

The program is open to
all Lock Haven State College students. Those interested in attending Nottingham College next fall
should contact Dr. Colabrese
for applications and further
information.

Senate Elections
to be Held
Sept. 18
The Student Cooperative
Council, known as the SCC,
will hold its Senatorial election on September 18. To be
eligible to serve as a senator, a student must be in
good academic standing with
the college and must be
currently carrying 12 semester hours or more of work.
A senator is required to
attend all SCC meetings,
usually held twice a month.
It is at these meetings that
the Senate conducts the
business of the Student
Government on a number of
various affairs of the college
including financial,
athletic, academic, social,
and cultural interests.

Less Teachers Graduating,
More Jobs By 1976
Every coiiege student
is aquainted with at least
one high school drop-out who
holds the firm belief that,
if teachers colleges are
so great, then why are so
many graduates driving cabs,
or pumping gas? College just
isn't worth it if you can't
find a college level job,"
Until recently it might
have taken the Harvard debate team to gracefully sidestep a statement of this
nature. Why? Because it was
and still is the truth. >/1any
college degree holders are
performing jobs that a nonhigh school graduate could
have been qualified for.
Now though, a recent
survey, "Trends In Teacher
Supply and Demand In Public
Schools, 1973-1976". out
out by the National Education Association has shown
a ray of hope for the nation's
present education majors.
This survey, which collected enrollment data from
67 of the nations largest
teacher preparation institutions, snowed tliat the number of students completing
preparation for teaching will
be lower in 1973 and for the
next three years, than in
1972.
, ,
"If these institutiond
are representative of all
teachei education institutions
the number of graduates completing preparation to enter
teiching in 1976 will be

only two-thirds the number
in 1972, and the ratio of
graduates seeking teaching
jobs, to the number of jobs
open to them will be about
1 1/2 to 1, instead of almost
2 to 1 in 1972."
NATION IS WASTING
ANOTHER RESOURCE
The National Education
Association has been concerned with the lack of job
availability
to education
majors for some time now.
Terry C. Henderson,
executive secretary of N.C.A.
was quoted as saying: "The
nation is turning the present
flood 01 college-age population down the spill-way
when it should be used for
generators and resevoirs,"
Herdon expressed his
views that the nation is already beginning to lose the
potential resourses offered
by the present "wave" of
college-age population , by
saying: "Tliere is very little
evidence that the nation is
taking any action necessary
to utilize the tide of collegeeducated manpower to increase the nations annual
progress toward desirable
goals, or to effectively
employ it now so that the
pool of qualified manpower
will be adqueate to the demands in the 1980's when
the size of college-age population will decrease each
year."

around individual schedule. $2.50/hour to start.

DECREASE COMING,
EDUCATORS AWARE
Recent enrollment data
has shown that the public
is becoming quite aware of
the problem Mr. Herdon has
brought up. Evidence from
67 of 124 largest teacher
preparation institutions have
reported a drop of 36% from
1972 to 1973 graduating
classes, that is 8,650 people
less will have acquired teachers degrees in just one year's
time.
The reasons for such
a decrease are nany and
wide spread. The roots of
the problem can be traced
mainly to the lack of jobs,
the boom in technical and
trade schools, and the simple
fact that more and more graduating high school students
are taking time off before
jumping into college.
Tlie decrease in college
applicants have resulted in
lowering admissions standards in mot t colleges and
institutions
across
the
nation. This may be just one
reason why the cafeteria
lines are so long this year,
at Lock Haven anyway.
SITUATION COULD BE
IMMEDIATE

Mon., Sept. 10, 1973
To combat this problem
Herdon advised: "Immediate
investment in the improvements of public school programs and services, along
with the creation of appropriate jobs for college gradtHtes in other fields, will
not only raise the quality
of public education but also
improve the present and long
term utilization of the present
wave of college-age manpowet
The decreasing total number
of children and youth, prc^
viding an outlook for fewer
potential graduates in the
1980's than in the 1970's.,
along with the presently
depressed job market for
college-educated manpower
as a whole, indicated that
now is the time to act."
Mr. Herdon was confident in saying; "If we
brought the teaching staff
up to minimum quality levels
there wouldn't be-even nowenough qualified teachers
to go around."
Perhaps, if the country's
educators take Mr, Herdon's
advise seriously, the problem of wasted college educations can be eliminated by
1976. None the less, now
is definitly the time, for us
to act to secure our futures.

Still in 1973 there will
be a decrease of qualified
teachers
coming directly
out of college, but there will
also be a decrease in the
iobs availal le to them.

Gridders Lose Scrimmage: Weller Optimistic
The LHS Bald Eagles
suffered tlieir first taste of
defeat at Saturday's scrimmage against Lycoming College.
Coach Weller emptied
the entire Eagle bench in
the 20-8 loss, but felt that
the Bald Eagles could have
been victoriovas had he stuck
with his first string throughout the entire game.
The first team defense
gave up but one touchdown
throughout the entire first
half. This touchdown was
given up to Lycoming's best
offensive unit. As one Eagle
defenseman put it: "We were
just getting started when the

In the second half the
second and third strings of
both teams were inserted.
Lycoming then proceeded to
score two touchdowns, one
in the third and fourth quarters. Lock Haven was unable
to score but did manage to
spark a long drive as the
game ended.
"I definitely feel the
lack of contact in practice
has really hurt u s , " stated
Weller following the game.
Hitting a sled or dummy in
practice is a lot different
than hitting a man coming at
you in a game. We were
physical but not aggressive," added Weller. "The
half ended."

Eagles Soar At Bucknell
Prior to Saturday afternoon's scrimmage at Bucknell, LHS Soccer Coach Karl
Herrmann stated, "If we can
put it all together we're going
be tough to beat."
Wlien the dust had cleared
the LHS booters had registered
three shutouts in what turned
out to be a round-robin tournament on the Bucknell turf.
Defeating
Muhlenberg
2-0 in their opening encounter behind Don Cope lands
two goals the Eagles then
went on to tie Bucknell in a
scoreless duel. The final
match saw the Eagles edge
out Wilkes College 1-0. The
last two matches against
Bucknell and Wilkes were
abbreviated contests due to
the amount of play seen by
all four teams.
Coach Herrmann was
pleased with the results of
the scrimmage, stating that
the defense was very tough,
and that conditioning definitely paid off.
"The deep four backs;
Al Rice, Bob Boles, Bob
Wright and Lenny Long, worked extremely well together,"
stated
Herrmann. "Mike
Parker deserves a lot of
credit for that, working hard
to get these boys together.
Sandy Bush also did a good
job in there substituting
when one of the four needed
a breather."
Commenting on other
members of the team Herrmann
added, "Don CopeUnd is u

good as ever and played
extremely well. Bill Bush
looks like he's going to be
a really good one here at the
Haven. He's got the equipment and is learning fast."
"Part of our effectiveness and s u c e s s , " Herrmann
continued, " a s was typical
in the past, is our hustle
and conditioning which definitily showed Saturday."
This was proven in the
match between Bucknell and
LHS when Bucknell's eleven
began to tire as the game
progressed, while the Eagle
booters got stronger and
stronger.
One area that Herrmann
worried about before the
start of the season was
goalie but the hooter mentor
stated, "Mark Worthington
and Steve Tanner both did a
great job Saturday, and 1
think we have little to worry
about at that position for
possibly fa the next two
years."
Coach Herrmann's only
criticism an the team's play
concerned the offense. "We
have to have more continuity
out there between the backfield and front line on offense. A little work on that
and we should be strong all
over."
Considering the amount
of practice the LHS booters
have had and their success
on Saturday at Bucknell,
Coach Herrmann and Company could be in fcf another

bit Mwon ^'*» f'l^-

guys wanted to really 'popsomebody but at times just
didn't know who to hit."
Despite playing only
once under actual football
conditions during practice,
Weller feels that this year's
ground game is much improved over last year's.
LHS has been in the
past basically a passing
team, however Weller commented that against Lycoming the offense moved
the ball on the ground better
than any LHS team ever had
in previous scrimmages over
;he past years.

page 3
This is a great compliment to the offense considering no traps or reverses
were run in the game. Westminster's coach was scouting LHS at the scrimmage
and Weller did not wish to
show anything that might be
used in the season's opener.
Coach Weller concluded
his comments by saying that
getting timing down and
building better pass protection must be improved
but would come along in
time.
If Lock Haven can put
all these " i f s " together a
lot of teams are going to be
surprised w'aen they meet
the Bald Eagles this season.

Harriers Face Tough Schedule
Cross-Country, the most
successful men's sport at
LHS in recent years will get
underway this Saturday, Sept.
15 with a home meet against
traditional
rival. Slippery
Rock State.
This year's schedule
will be the toughest dual
meet schedule in the history
at LHS. The Bald Eagles
will compete in 15 dual
meets, including all the top
teams in the Pa. State College Conference.
Jim Dolan, a former All American
distance runner
from Michigan will once again
be head coach. The highly
competitive coach will enter
his fifth season for the Bald
Eagles.
The '73 harrier squad
will find it tough to replace
3 out of 5 top runners it lost

next to the post office
in Lock H a v e n . 748-5371

The BIG RED NOTE
Free Instruction Book
With Any Harmonica

through graduation and transfering, Steve Harnish, Nibs
Gordon and Hal Fried left
shoes that will he hard to
fill by this year's cross. country squad.
Dolan, as has been customary in the past, declines
to give any pre-season predictions. He did comment
however that, "We have a
bunch of guys who want to
run. I will be happy with any
win-loss record if ihey work
hard and reach their potential. And that's the nDme of
the game in my book."
According to pre-season
performances, the top five
men appear to be senior,
Mike Gaige, freshman Ed
Fraass, Juniors Eric Burkert
and Bill Landis, and Sophomore Denny Harmon. Gaige,
number one runner last season and winner of the 1973
Pa. Conference Mile Championship, is a definite potential All-American. Fraass was
one of the top cross-country
runners in N.J. last season
while a senior in high school.
He remains interested however in the 5 mile college
course distance.
Several other runners are
rounding into shape and
could be contenders for the
top 5 slots. Among these
are seniors Larry Wise and
Lloyd Peters, juniors Bob
Sellers,
Pat Dunmire and
Gerry Thorton, sophomore
Nbtt Delfert and Larry Kerr,
and freshmen Tom Getz and
Dean Walize.
