Vali-dine out, paper meal tickets in
By Jeffrey Hilty
Co-News Editor
Complaints are on the rise tiiis
semester about the durability of
mealtickets.
The Student Life Handbook states
that 1> the food service operation of
Bentley Hall is selected by a competitive
bid process and that 2) the operation of
the caterer is supervised by a
consultant, the university, and a student
food service committee.
Timothy Susick, Associate Dean of
Students, is the liaison between the
university and the student food service
committee.
Susick stated that the university
reviewed eight "proposals" from
companies interested in handling the
university meal program.
He stated that reviewing the proposals
of each of the companies seeking the
food
service
contract
is
the
responsibility of the Vice President for
Admissions; the Dean and Associate
Dean of Students; Mr. Gallagher,
Business Manager; and Wayne Clickner,
contract writer for the university.
Susick said that the university sets
guidelines by which each company must
abide by before a proposal is submitted.
The administration reviewed 1) the
management staff of each company, 2)
each companies proposed price of the
meal plan, and 3) their budget.
Custom Management Corporation
received the contract for the meal
program this year.
Custom Management has received the
contract for the past six years.
John Wilt, Director for Food Services,
said, " Last year the old contract
specified that we must use the Vali-dine
system.
However, this year the unversity took
vali-dine out of the contract and told the
company to write Its own proposal for the
meal tk:ket."
Custom Management made their first
proposal in conjunction with Dave Cox
and the Student Co-operative Council.
The first proposal was to put a sticker
on the student's identification card.
SCC President Kevin McNamara was
fbr the proposal because each student
would have to pay his/her student
activity fee by the beginning of the
semester.
Susick stated that the first proposal
was unacceptable because it would
collide with the housing agreement.
Wilt saki that Custom Management is
allowing students into the cafeteria with
or without photo i.D. through today.
Beginning tomorrow a student must
present some form of photo I.D.
Concerning mealticket durability, Wilt
said that these tickets are definitely not
as durable as last year's card, but there
were no cost increases.
The student food service committee is
a standing committee which handles
student complaints and concerns.
McNamara stated that any person
who has paid their activity fee is eligible
to join the committee, which will accept
members at the first or second SCC
meeting.
Susick said that he is not pleased with
the current meal ticket plan, and he
intends to work with the student food
service committee.
Susick,Wilt, and McNamara all agree
that students should voice any
disagreement through the proper
channels in order to get any action.
Exchange program goes to Japan
By Sue Berger
News Editor
An exchange program between Lock
Haven University and Nara University of
Japan will begin in the spring semester.
John Johnston, Associate Dean of
International Studies, worked with Nara
University officials to create the new
program.
Because the university is tocated in an
older section of Japan, students chosen
to study there will have to learn the
basKS of Japanese language and culture
before they go.
'Students will have to know some
Japanese so that they can do such
things as find the subway or a bus,"
Johnston said, "because most of the
street signs are in Japanese."
He added that although many people
at the university speak English, most
people in the surrounding regton do not.
Once students are at Nara, they will
have 12-18 semester hours of Japanese
history,
politics, economics, and
culture.
Although the university Is in an older
area of Japan, the campus and its
facilities are quite modern, Johnston
said.
The International Office is now
accepting applications for students
interested in this exchange. Since it is
such an "intensive" program, only three
students will be selected, said Johnston,
but it will be a yearly program.

New grading policy to go into
effect at LHU next fall
By IMil(e McKay
StaffReporter
Two new grading procedures have
been adopted by the Lock Haven
University Academic Affairs office.
"The now grading policy will permit
faculty to award plus and minus grades,"
said Dr. Mary Pursell, vice-president of
Academk: Affairs.
Students will now have to contend with
the fact that any grade in the "A" range
is not nesessarily a 4.0. An A- is a 3.7,
B+ is a 3.3, B is a 3.0, B- is a 2.7 and so
on.
A 2.0 GPA must still be maintained for
graduation. Therefore, a C- overall
average will not be suffteient to enable a
student to graduate.
The earliest possible date for the
institution of the new grading policies is
for the fall semester of 1987.
"We w o n i be able to format the new
grading procedures on the computer for
the fall semester of '86 and we doni want
to have two grading systems for one
academic year by introducing the system
in the spring of '67," sakl Pursell.
The second polk:y being amended for
the fall '87 semester is for the case when
a student fails a class but opts to repeat
the course.
In such circumstances, if the student
passes the class the second time
around, the credit hours for the repeated
course will not be added to the credit
hours attempted. Therefore, it will be as
if the student took the class once and
passed.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
EDITORIAL
Introducing our new staff.
Time to put away your bathing suit and the surrtan oil. Hard as it is to face,
September is here, and it's time to hit the books.
With the coming of fall, there' have been more than a few changes in the
staff here at the Eagle Eye. Joining me as Co-Editor is Chris Fischer, who
was Feature Editor last year. Chris and I wish to welcome Sue Berger and
Jeffrey Hilty as our new News Editors.
As reporters, Jeff and Sue were very valuable members of our News staff
last year, and we're now proud to see them climb to leadership positions at the
Eagle Eye.
Our new Sports Editors are Bill Alexander and Bill Hunter, who have worked
closely both in the sports and features departments in the past (Hunter was
our "foriegn correspondent" last semester). Chris and I are confident that Bill
and Bill will more than fill the position left over by previous editors.
Last years "Campus Line" columnist and SCC reporter Jennifer Brady will be
taking over tiie Feature Editor position left open by Chris' promotion. Jennifer
wHI no doubt prove to be an even greater asset to us than she has been in the
past.
Ooug Reier is our new Photography Editor, who, so far, has proved to be
both motivated and talented. He has gathered a staff of four photographers
around him and has already managed to help us aquire some much-needed
equipment. We're very lucky to have him on our staff.
Maria Hull has stepped into the rather sizeable shoes of our previous
Business Managers, and has done so admirably-working through the muck
arKi mire of numbers that are our finances with patience and grace.
Tanya Baskovk:h, star of the major motton picture A Walk 1Q ihe Night will
remain on as our Advertising Editor, and our only hope is that our advertisers
doni find out about her previous screen career. (Only kidding, Tanya)
Our new Advertising Sales person is Patrkia Durfee, who last year was our
Fashton Columnist, and who coordinated our "Swimsuit Issue." Anytx)dy who
k>oks this much like Lena Tumer cani be all bad.
Many of our harshest critics will be pleased to hear that we've hired a Copy
Editor-Tina Hoffman, who several months ago worked as our Layout
manager. We're all very happy to have Tina back again-now we have
someone to take the blame for that rarity of rarities, a misspelled word in the
Eagle Eye.
Finally. Maureen Campbell has become that unsung hero-our
Announcement Coordinator. She has all our sympathies.

Dear EdKor,
I'm sure Custom Management
Corporation had good intentions when
they replaced the computerized
"Vali-dine" meal card system from last
year, with the system that they are
presently using.
However, good
intentions don't always lead to success,
and this case is not an exception. I have
heard nothing but negative criticism in
the nearly two weeks that the cards have
been in use.
There are several specific complaints
that I have heard about the cards. One
is that it takes a much longer time for the
new card to be marked off than it took to
"punch" the old card in the machine.
Two, the cards are so flimsy and weak, I
doubt if there will be anyone who will not
have to get a new card by the end of the
semester because theirs has become
too beat up. t'll also hate to see what a
good rainstorm will do to these cards.
Third, a friend pointed out to me that the
cards are not even the right size to fit
into a wallet, a very convenient and
popular place to keep a meal ticket.
I suspect that it is probably too late to
replace the new system for this
semester, which is unfortunate. I'm glad
that Custom Management Corporatton is
trying new ideas to see what will work
best, but please, don't make us live with
this new system any longer than we have
to.

Himes bomb scare turns out to be hoax
By S u e Berger and
Jeffrey Hilty
Co-News Edilors
A bomb threat made last week to the
Himes Building on the campus of Lock
Haven University will be difficult to trace
because it was made on the 1-800 line,
according to Richard Hepner, Director of
LHU Law Enforcement.
This was the second such threat
made to the Himes Building within the last
week, possibly by the same individual
according to personnel in the building.
The Admissions Office, located in
Himes, received an out-of-state call on
the toll free line saying that a bomb would
explode in the building betw/een 2 and 3
p.m.
Law Enforcement searched the
building at noon but found no bomb. At
I p . m . , campus police asked all
personnel to leave the building.
Sandra Hammann, Director of Public
Relations, whose office is located in the
Himes Building, moved to the Eagle
Eye Offices where she continued her
work.
Kathy Ryan, a secretary in the PR
Office , went to Sullivan Hall to work for
the rest of the afternoon.
Ryan said that she had to come in
early Friday morning so that she could
complete the work she did not get done
due to the interruption.
Although the bomb threat was a hoax,
Hammann said, "You have to treat each
threat seriously, because you never
know when it's a crank call or the real
thing I"
Law Enforcement is continuing its
investigation into the incidents.

Old Lock Haven Hospital
turned into practice fields
Athletic teams at Lock Haven
University will have a new practfce field
this year when work is completed at the
site of the oki Lock Haven Hospital.
The old hospital building, on
Susquehanna Avenue about half a b k x *
from Zimmerli Gymnasium, was torn down
in June.
The hospital was built in 1908 and
used until Lock Haven Hospital moved to
its present location on Cree Drive in
1961.
Workers from Cuyahoga Wrecking Co.
of Cleveland, Ohio, are now in the
process of grading the land in
preparation for the new practtoe field.
A sidewalk and steps have been
installed, and a new driveway opened to
the adjacent Clinton County Courthouse
Annex. Eventually, a fence will be
erected around the fieki.
The demolition project was given top
priority in the State Univertsity System
by the Department of General Services
last year.
Costs for the project were originally
budgeted at $150,000, but has more than
doubled because of problems with
asbestos.
The contractor found more asbestos in
the building than was originally thought.
and by federal law all of the asbestos
had to be removed before the demolition
coukl proceed.
After 98 tons of contaminated material
were removed, an additional $200,000
was added to the cost of the project.
When demolKton began, the contractor
moved qutokly, razing the old hospital in
about two weeks..- Rubble was then
removed and work began on the practice
field.
"It should be quite attractive," said
George Marshall, Lock Haven University
vice president for administration. "We
need additional
playing
fields
desperately. The f iekls we now have are
used from sunup to sundown."
The okJ hospital buikling grounds were
donated to Lock Haven University by the
Clinton County Commisstoners.
Several other major construction
projects have been approved by the
State for Lock Haven University.
Design work is under way on
renovation projects for the Akeley
Building and Price Auditorium.
The State Capital budget for 1987,
approved over the summer, includes
$990,000 for electrical work at the
University.

Richter watercolors presented in Sloan Gallery this week
By Jennifer Brady
Features Editor
Wilmer S. Richter, who has donated
about 104 works of art to Lock Haven
University, was the first artist to be
featured this semester in an exhibition
opening on September 8, in Sloan
Gallery.
After students and faculty had the
opportunity to admire his collection-of
landscapes ranging from Delaware
County , PA to Venice, Italy, Professor
Stanislaus Wisniewski introduced
Rtohter's son, William C . Richter, who
was there to talk about his father's
works.
Wisniewski said that Richter's works
represent a total dedication for one
man's passton for art.
He added that at the age of 95. Richter
still enjoys painting, and had plans to
visit each of the 50 states to do a
painting in each ona .
William Richter said, "(regret that my
father cannot be here tonight. I know he
wouki be pleased to see this exhibit."

This is one of many landscapes done In watercolors by
95-year-old Wilmer S. Richter.
Richter donated 104 of his
worl(s to LHU. His collection was put on display in Sloan Gallery
on September 8.
He went on to describe some of the
events in his father's career, and also
what it was like to grow up as the son of a
great artist.
Richter said even though his father
has sons and daughters who attended
other schools, he chose to donate his
works to LHU because, "I don't think
there's a back road, pond, or farm that he
hasnt sketched in this area."
He said his father was born in
Philadelphia and quit public school after
eighth grade, but was able to study at
the Philadelphia Academy of Fine Arts
when he was 19.
Foltowing World War I. Richter used
war scenes sketched in a 5" X 8"
notebook as the portfolto he showed the
editor of the Saturday Evening Post
magazine, which the editor later
published.
He has done illustrations and covers
for other magazines as well.
Professor May Dyer of the LHU Art
Department said, "The paintings are
extremely well done and are a definite
asset to us."

British students having fun
By Sarah Gibbons
StaffReporter
"Fun, fun, fun!" That seems to be the
general opinion so far of the group of
English students here at Lock Haven
University.
The group of 18 students, including
myself, are spending one semester here
as part of an exchange scheme from
Bulmershe College in Reading, about 30
miles from London.
Although we have been here a
relatively short time and are still rather
overwhelmed by everything, we are
generally enjoying the experience.
For most of us, this is our first visit to
the States, and one of which we have
dreamed for a tong time. As a result, we
are grabbing the opportunity with both
hands and making the most oif it.
We have been made to feel extremely
welcome by our fellow students who
seem much less reserved than those in
England, and we enjoy the International
atmosphere at LHU.
Naturally, we have already noticed
many differences in the lifestyle: some
for better and some for worse.
The most nottoeable and inconvenient
difference is obviously the drinking laws.
Whilst not being a group of alcoholics,
we are used to being able to drink when
and where we want. So, the harsh
drinking laws are not easy to accept!
The sportsmen among us prefer the
American attitude to sports: there is
more dedteation here, and they approve
of the seriousness with which it is taken.
The sports facilities here are far
superior to our own and full advantage of
them is being taken by us.
However, those for drama are inferior
to our own as we are a very drama
orientated college, and those active on
the stage miss this at LHU.
Bulmershe, too, is divided into dorms
or hostels.
Most of us have single rooms and so
sharing is rather strange. There is the
advantage that we get to know more
Americans, but people do miss the
privacy of a single room. Especially the
washbasins we have in Reading-they
just save that early morning mad dash to
the bathroom!
This is somewhat compensated for by
the presence of phones in each room.
They only add to our laziness, but surely
this can be excused when you consider
we have to climb all the steps to reach
our dorms, thanks to the powers that be
who placed us in North and Gross Halls!
The food is great, if you like salad that
is, but it becomes rather monotonous!
The food at Bulmershe is not wonderful
but there is some variety, although you
only get one serving.
It is too early to comment on classes,
but it woukl appear a subject is exptored
in less depth over here, thus making
things easier than normal to us.
We have six or nine hours a week
which is less than we are used to, so
there are no complaints on that score!
We are here for 16 weeks, which will fly
by, even though we will all miss certain
aspects, or more probably certain
PEOPLE of England I'm sure! For now
though, we're making the most of this
fantastic experience and enjoying life to
the fullest.
Thanks to everyone for the friendly
welcome!
Tootsie reveals himself this
weekend at the S C C movie
By Ken Foster
StaffReporter
Released in 1982, Tootsie was the last
in a string of comedies featuring
cross-dressing and androgynous
characters—certainly one of the more
bizarre film genres to gain mass
popularity.
Tootsie was preceeded by the French
comedy La Cage Au Folies. a story about
a man who wants to hide from his
prospective in-laws the fact that his
'mother' is actually a transvestite.
Then there was Victor/Victoria, in
whtoh Julie Andrews portrayed an out of
work singer who becomes a star by
masquarading as a man and getting a
job as a female impersonator.
When Tootsie followed with virtually
the same plot, many peopte expected
that it would be a stale flop. Instead, it
became one of the funniest and most
popular comedies in history.
Dustin Hoffman giv«s a terrific
performance as an unemployed actor
who throws on a dress and becomes
Amertoa's favorite soap opera actress.
The rest of the cast is also excellent.
Bill Murray ad libs his way though the role
of Hoffman's room mate, who is not too
thrilled about his friend's new wardrobe.
Teri Garr plays Hoffman's neunDtic
girlfriend, who doesn't realize that the
actress she hates so much actually is
her tx)yfriend, and Jessica Lange won
an Oscar for her supporting performance
as a young actress who is unable to
understand the sexual attraction she has
for her seemingly female co-star.
Sponsored by the SCC, Tootsie will be
shown Friday, Saturday, and Sunday at
8p.m in the lower level of the PUB.

Liabilities for
underage
drinking
examined
By Karl BoKz
StaffReporter
The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
on December 30, 1983 passed a law
stating that any person (including the
corporatton or organization for whom that
person works) who serves a minor
alcoholic beverages, will be held
absolutely liable for any harm that
results.
This law also forbids reimbursement by
insurance carriers for claims against
violators.
Every year, claims against fraternities
are made by hotels, restaurants and
clubs because of alcohol-related
vandalism done to their premises during
fraternity functions. It is also possible
for universities to assert financial
claims against fraternities for vandalism
done to university property connected
with the consumption of alcohol at a
fraternity party.
Colleges and universities across the
state are threatened with large claims
which could force them to close.
Consider these:
A Pennsylvania university was
recently required to pay $5,000,000 to
the families of three minor students who
died in a drunk driving accident following
a cocktail party at a professor's home.
A
Pennsylvania
c o l l e g e is
presently being sued for $3,000,000
because a minor student got drunk at a
dorm "keg" party and later had a drunk
driving accident resulting in two deaths.
A P e n n s y l v a n i a university is
being sued for an amount in excess of
$1,000,000 because a minor student
became intoxicated at a dorm party and
fell down a stainwell, causing permanent
damage.
A P e n n s y l v a n i a c o l l e g e was
sued for $2,500,000 by the parents of a
high school senior who got drunk at a
fraternity party and was later seriously
injured in a drunk driving accident.
It is necessary as students, faculty,
and administrators that we educate
ourselves to our personal liability and it is
necessary to work together in dealing
with this problem.
Army ROTC Cadets finish first
For the second consecutive year, the
LHU Army ROTC cadets (Eagle
Company) in competition with some 150
colleges and universites from Maine to
Florida, finished first at the Army ROTC
Advanced Camp, Fort Bragg, North
Carolina.
Each year, senior cadets in the
program must attend the six-week
training and evaluation camp at Fort
Bragg. Cadets are evaluated daily in five
major areas: Job Performance and
Leadership, Tactics, Land Navigation,
the Army Physical Fitness Test, and
Rifle Marksmanship.
An elaborate, computer generated
scoring system assigns grade points for
subareas, and by the end of camp each
cadet has a five-digit score which
determines his or her exact ranking.
Major Gerald Nye, Officer-in-Charge of
the LHU Army ROTC said, "Only host
institutions (LHU's program is an
extension of "host" Penn State) appear
on the computer printout, but for the
.second consecutive year LHU's score
has exceeded that of the 111 host,
institutions.
"LHU cadets excel each year in
Leadership and Job Performance," said
Nye.
He added that five of the 15 attendees
this year scored in the top 10 percent
campwide, and 11 were in the top
one-third.
Nye believes most of the credit for
their success goes to the cadets, but
the assistance of the cadre advisors.
Captain Alan Davison and Master
Sergeant James Hannligan shouki not be
overtooked.
Nye said, "Outstanding togistical and
administrative support from Sergeant
First Class Dzintars Zuicens and
secretary Diana Haines freed the cadre
advisors and returning seniors to
concentrate on training.
The 15 cadets who made up the first
place Eagle Company include: Steve
Donakison, Rick Busko, Brian Jackson,
Kim Thompson, Mel Greene, Lee Traost,
Curt Beck, Bob Rote, Bob Hoffman,
Darryl Martin, Dave Martin, Colleen
Hackenberg, Cindy Wamsley, Dave
Rtohard, and Alan Statham.
Over 50 countries represented
ISA enrollment highest ever at LHU
By lUlilce Daily
StaffReporter
Boasting their largest enrollment ever,
the International Student Association
(ISA) has grown to be a club concerned
with educating the campus and
community about international issues.
England, Scotland, and West
Germany are among the countries
represented by the 50 new foreign
students now attending the international
relations group according to Eric
Otiende, the ISA president from Kenya.
The close-knit club continues to be a
"mini-United Nations" right here at Lock
Haven
University,
encouraging
Americans to join and have a chance to
become exposed to foreign studies.
ISA, one of the largest student
organizations on campus with over 100
members, attributes Americans with
much of its long-standing success.
"Although the title of the club is the
International Student Association, it is
not exclusively for international
students," Otiende said. "Some of our
greatest assets and most energetic and
dedicated members are Americans,
including some of our highest ranking
members."
Highlights from last semester included
directly aWing the UNICEF program and a
presentation on world economic crisis by
Dr. Mayorga Cortez. The future plans of
the organization will remain the same: To
continue sharing cultural heritage with
the local community and to extend
knowledge of the
international
community to the Keystone Central
school districts. Cordial relations with
the fraternities will continue to grow in the
future.
Otiende asserted that Lock Haven
University is widely recognized as a
college with international "flavor".
"Our doors will always remain open for
more American members," Otiende said.

New professor identifies
witti LHU frestimen
By lUlaureen Campbell
StaffReporter
Just as all new students to the
campus must adjust to their new
environment, new professors must also
become adjusted to new surroundings.
Professor Denise Warner, originally
from Ftorida, has experienced her own
set of fears about starting her new
position at Lock Haven University.
Warner, who can be found teaching
costume design in the Theater
Department, claims that she felt the
anxiety of leaving the known, to face the
unknown, but she eagerly met the
challenge.
Warner earned a Bachelor of Arts
degree in Theater and Speech
Communications at Mercer University in
Macon, Georgia.
She then received certification in
secondary education and, shortly after
attended graduate school.
Eventually, she decided that she
wanted a degree in costume design.
Although she claims that most of her
costume work has been done within
educational settings, Warner has done
work with summerstock companies in
Kentucky, Baltimore, Maryland, and
Orlando, Florida.
Warner said that she is very pleased
with her decision to teach at LHU.
She has always been intrigued by
Pennsylvania. She said the people within
the community appear to be warm and
friendly.

On the wrong side of the ball
By Joe Krause
Sports Columnist
"I always turn to the sports page first,"
Former Chief Justice Earl Warren once
boasted, "because the sports page
records man's achievements. The front
page has nothing but man's failures."
Times certainly do change.
Yesterday, we were talking about the
future. Today, we reminisce about the
past.
It is becoming more and more apparent
over the last decade that our
achievements as well as our failures in
sport are directly related to the use and
misuse of drugs.
Last January, less than twenty-hours
after the New England Patriots reached
the Nations most watched sporting
event, six players tested positive for
drug use.
J u n e , 1 7 , 1 9 8 6 , Len Bias
w a s a n achievement. The former
University of Maryland all-time lading
scorer, became the Boston Celtics first
round selection in this past year's NBA
Draft.
Forty Hours Later, Bias died from what
later would be diagnosed as cocaine
intoxication. His celebrated achievement
became a sudden failure, clouding the
complexion of this already blurred
picture.
A sad, sad story that needed to
happen.
If it werent an athlete, it would have
been another mere statistto. The fact
that it was Len Bias, an athlete, made it
memorable and made it the topto of
discussion on every corner, in every
town across the U.S.
Maryland officials woukl later site the
draft, the meetings and the tong season
as to much pressure for one individual to
endure.
Still, this type of pressure actively
goes on, whether it be professional,
collegiate, or high school. Winning is the
bottom line. To state an already
overstated thesis. Intercollegiate Sport
creates
schools for
scandal,
embarassment and misplaced emphasis.
NCAA addresses the issue
I guess you can say that in the wake
of a tragedy, acttons tend to become
louder than words. Or so it seems.
Take for example, the National
Collegiate Athletto Association (NCAA),
the governing body for collegiate
athlettos. They have responded whh a
few amendments of their own in an
attempt to ease the pressure.
E F F E C T I V E , August 1, 1986:
"The student-athlete annually, prior to
the participation in intercollegiate
competitton during the academto year in
question, shall sign a statement
submitting information related to
eligibility, recruitment, financial aid.
amateur status and involvement in
organized gambling activities... while
consenting to be tested for drugs. Failure
to complete and sign the aforementioned
statement shall result in ineligibility."
Times certainly do change.
Another attempt implemented for the
first time by the NCAA, pertains to post
season competition. All players on all
teams must submit to a random test for
drugs, prior to entering
into
championship play. Positive results
mean
disqualification
from
competition...IF, the players found
positive are among the top eight
members of your team. If not, individual
Players who fall into the other category
automatically become ineligible.
In general terms, if your goirtg to use
chemicals, forget about the glory and
honor that accompany championships.
Your ineligible for the brass ring.
In the aftermath of it all, what does this
mean for the athlete and for society,
especially since our society remains
toiled in relative obscurity over what
action is proper in fighting this ugly
situation.
"Our only solution is to get
to the big drug pushers and
shoot them!"- Dr. Ken Cox
Should we test athletes for
drugs?
No matter how you look at it. Drugs
steal talent and end careers. Something
must be done. Do we. or should we
randomly test our athletes for drugs?
Some will say no and argue the 4th
amendment in their defense. Mandatory
drug testing is a degrading and
humiliating invasion of privacy.
Au Contrarel Those in favor argue. If
you have nothing to hkle, why shouki you
object to a urinalysis?
Apply this scenark) to athletes, and
some will say that the athlete is publto
property, admired by the general public.
They k>se their rights under the fourth
amendment. They are role models for
youngsters; they shouklnt use drugs.
Soccer player, Steve Paguia has a
different idea, "Why single out the
athlete, lets test everyone for drugs."
"I'm for it," says Junior Price, LHU
Basketball star. "The publto has a right to
know."
Sharing the same opinion, LHU
Fullback, Roosevelt Brown said, "If your
an athlete, you don't use drugs. Lets get
in line, I'll be first."
Soccer Player, Sean Perry added, "I
think we should test our athletes, its
good for the individual sports."
Head Football Coach Jack Fisher
expressed mixed emotions. "I think drug
testing has application, however, I
question the validity of the actual tests.
Are the results reliable?"
One look at recent statistics released
by the Journal of the American Medical
Associatton will help you relate to Coach
Fisher's response. Labs with government
contracts
arrived
at
incorrect
conclusions up to 100 percent of the
time.
Furthermore, The method of urinalysis
most commonly used in drug testing (the
"EMIT kit") has also proven unreliable.
The kit gives a false positive result about
10 to 40 percent of the time.
Dr. Charles Eberle, Athletic Director
had this response, "I would like to do it
right now; hell, its gotten out of hand. I'm
not worried about invasion." Of course,
as Eberle pointed out, there is a questton
of cost. It may not be feasible for our
school to test every student-athlete.
Schools can spend up to $100 per
athlete, depending on how extensive the
testing program is. There is the 4-5
series test, which is minimal in cost and
only detects certain chemicals. From
there, the series gets more extensive
and mora expensive. As Prof. David
Tomasi, Head Athletic Trainer, points
out, "It's getting more and more
expensive. Right now, were looking at six
or seven thousand dollars just for the fall
.semester."
I wonder. Should saving money be our
first concern?
Other interesting responses include
the foltowing:
"I'm not opposed to it [drug testing],
but I'd be surprised if we would." Head
Lacrosse Coach, Rose Ann Neff.
Assistant Athletic Director and Head
FieW Hockey Coach Sharon Taylor sakl,
"I dont think anybody should be tested.
Random testing is a violation of rights."
(Keep in mind. The Ladies Field Hockey
Team competes in Division I, so they
may be subjected to testing a lot
sooner).
"I'm sort of on the fence about it. If it
was mandatory, I would certainly go
along with it." Lenny Long, Head Soccer
Coach.
Presklent Willis added, "It may be an
infringement of students rights."
Tutorial Coordinator, Don Pearman
said, "No, absolutely not, its not a
cure-all."
Head Men's Basketball Coach Kurt
Kanaskie said, 'I'm for drug testing,
there's no better deferent."
I suppose there are no right or wrong
answers. However, time has come to
address this issue and take action. Ih
sport, its not a questton of who's using
drugs, but a questton of who's not using
drugs.
Times certainly do change.
"Why
single
out
the
athletes,? Lets test everyone

New Men's
X-C coach
at LHU
By Dan Hanson
^X3rts Reporter
This summer Lock Haven University
saW good-bye to 17 year cross country
coach Jim Dolan, and welcomed the new
coach, Kurt Smith.
Smith may be the new guy on the
block, but he is no stranger to LHU.
Smith did his undergraduate work here,
and ran cross country for the Bald
Eagles under Dolan.
"I always enjoyed it (Lock Haven)
because of its size," Smith said . "There
was always someone to turn to for help,
and the people are very warm and
friendly."
A native of Mechantosburg, Smith has
no previous coaching experience on the
collegiate level, but he coached the
Lock Haven High School cross country
team to four successful seasons before
being hand picked by Dolan to replace
him as head coach at LHU.
'I am a go-out-and- get-the-job-done
kind of coach. I'm not a rah-rah kind of
coach. I tell the runners what needs to
be done, and the rest is up to them."
Smith saki.
Smith is married and has three
children. He enjoys coaching, cross
country skiing, cycling, and fly fishing.
For Smith, coaching is more than a job,
it does have its rewards.
"I like working with the young men,
seeing them grow
acedamically,
mentally, and helping them through tough
times."
In college sports there is a lot of
pressure to win, and some schools will go
to all lengths to achieve this goal. Smith
believes there is more to winning than a
team's record.
"There is a valuable lesson to be
learned on the cross country course,"
Smith sakl. 'H the athlete realizes his full
potential, that is more important than
having a winning record."

Fisher optimistic about upcomming season
By Bill Alexander
Co-Sports Editor
With 16 starters returning from the
1985 team. Head coach Jack Fisher has
an "optimistic" outtook on the upcomming
season.
"We have worked tong and hard, and
we have a tot of experience returning. If
we execute well, we'll win games," Rsher
said.
Quarterback Pat Cahill will again be
leading the Eagles offense. Cahill rushed
for a team high 634 yards and threw for
an additional 609 last year. He also led
the team in scoring with 42 points (7
TD's).
"Pat made tremendous progress last
year and will be our field general on
offense," said Fisher.
Joining Cahill in the backfiekl will be
co-captian Rosie Brown at fullback, and
Tom Smykowski and Bruce Pendelton will
fill the halfback positions.
Brown, a second-team All-Conference
player last year, rushed for 548 yards
and scored six touchdowns in 1985 while
Smykowski had 248 yards rushing but no
touchdowns.
Pendelton played quarterback in 1985
but is moving to halfback this year. He
rushed for 10 yards and passed for 28
others last season.
The offensive line is anchored by
co-captain John Elsenhooth at tackle
and center Jim McGonnell.
On defense, co-captain and inside
linebacker Stan Allen will lead an
experienced group of returning players.
Allen led the team in tackles with 114 last
year.
Jeff Swanson (strong saftey), Mike
Major (defensive end), and
Steve
Suriano (nose tackle) will help lead the
defensive attack for the Eagles.
According to Fisher, all the teams will
be tough, but his primary objective is to
win the season opener.
"Lyocming is returning almost all of
last years starters on offense and
defense," Fisher said. "Their quarterback
is ona of the finest we will meet all year
and they have a good group of
receivers."
Fisher continued by saying, "Their
offensive line is big and experienced. On
defense, they have a strong secondary
and we will have to be able to throw the
ball on them to win."
Defending Pennsylvinia State Athletto
Conference
Champion
(PSAC),
Bloomsburg and Indiana will be strong
also.
The team is hoping for a big fan turnout
on Saturday. A victory here, and the
team could be on their way to a PSAC
Championship.

In a recent merger, the people of Lock
Haven and members of the Lock Haven
University football staff have joined
together to form a Lock Haven University
football booster club.
According
to
booster

vice-president Pat Leone, the merger is
an effort to "brklge the gap between the
community and the university."
Leone-along with booster club
officers
President Jim Shirey and
Secretary/Treasurer Chariie Mulner~are
trying to develop a scholarship fund to
attract some of the better football
players to Lock Haven.
Head Football Coach Jack Fischer
said, "We're taking this idea one step at
the time, and are hoping for the best."
At this Saturday's football game, the
Haven booster club will be raffling off a

'Our offense needs a lot of work,
especially in front of tha cage. Although I
felt it was a pretty good game
defensively, I think we definitely need to
work together more as a team," saki
junior Kim Hasson. "We did very well in
the first half, but we just werent
executing anything in the second."
The Haven's next game will be heM on
Saturday at the University of

In a grudge match against arch rival
Penn State, the Lock Haven Field
Hockey Team was denied a victory by
the score of 1-0.
"I was not pleased at all with the
team's pertormance. If we would have
played moderately like we did on Sunday,
we probably would have won by three
goals," said Head Coach Sharon Taytor.
In the second half of the match, the
Lady Eagles did not get a shot off or
have any penalty corners. The number
eight ranked Penn State team scored
their first and only goal indirectly off of a
penalty corner at 16:25 into the second
half.
Taylor said, "We didnt generate any

Vali-dine out, paper meal tickets in
By Jeffrey Hilty
Co-News Editor
Complaints are on the rise tiiis
semester about the durability of
mealtickets.
The Student Life Handbook states
that 1> the food service operation of
Bentley Hall is selected by a competitive
bid process and that 2) the operation of
the caterer is supervised by a
consultant, the university, and a student
food service committee.
Timothy Susick, Associate Dean of
Students, is the liaison between the
university and the student food service
committee.
Susick stated that the university
reviewed eight "proposals" from
companies interested in handling the
university meal program.
He stated that reviewing the proposals
of each of the companies seeking the
food
service
contract
is
the
responsibility of the Vice President for
Admissions; the Dean and Associate
Dean of Students; Mr. Gallagher,
Business Manager; and Wayne Clickner,
contract writer for the university.
Susick said that the university sets
guidelines by which each company must
abide by before a proposal is submitted.
The administration reviewed 1) the
management staff of each company, 2)
each companies proposed price of the
meal plan, and 3) their budget.
Custom Management Corporation
received the contract for the meal
program this year.
Custom Management has received the
contract for the past six years.
John Wilt, Director for Food Services,
said, " Last year the old contract
specified that we must use the Vali-dine
system.
However, this year the unversity took
vali-dine out of the contract and told the
company to write Its own proposal for the
meal tk:ket."
Custom Management made their first
proposal in conjunction with Dave Cox
and the Student Co-operative Council.
The first proposal was to put a sticker
on the student's identification card.
SCC President Kevin McNamara was
fbr the proposal because each student
would have to pay his/her student
activity fee by the beginning of the
semester.
Susick stated that the first proposal
was unacceptable because it would
collide with the housing agreement.
Wilt saki that Custom Management is
allowing students into the cafeteria with
or without photo i.D. through today.
Beginning tomorrow a student must
present some form of photo I.D.
Concerning mealticket durability, Wilt
said that these tickets are definitely not
as durable as last year's card, but there
were no cost increases.
The student food service committee is
a standing committee which handles
student complaints and concerns.
McNamara stated that any person
who has paid their activity fee is eligible
to join the committee, which will accept
members at the first or second SCC
meeting.
Susick said that he is not pleased with
the current meal ticket plan, and he
intends to work with the student food
service committee.
Susick,Wilt, and McNamara all agree
that students should voice any
disagreement through the proper
channels in order to get any action.
Exchange program goes to Japan
By Sue Berger
News Editor
An exchange program between Lock
Haven University and Nara University of
Japan will begin in the spring semester.
John Johnston, Associate Dean of
International Studies, worked with Nara
University officials to create the new
program.
Because the university is tocated in an
older section of Japan, students chosen
to study there will have to learn the
basKS of Japanese language and culture
before they go.
'Students will have to know some
Japanese so that they can do such
things as find the subway or a bus,"
Johnston said, "because most of the
street signs are in Japanese."
He added that although many people
at the university speak English, most
people in the surrounding regton do not.
Once students are at Nara, they will
have 12-18 semester hours of Japanese
history,
politics, economics, and
culture.
Although the university Is in an older
area of Japan, the campus and its
facilities are quite modern, Johnston
said.
The International Office is now
accepting applications for students

New grading policy to go into
effect at LHU next fall
By IMil(e McKay
StaffReporter
Two new grading procedures have
been adopted by the Lock Haven
University Academic Affairs office.
"The now grading policy will permit
faculty to award plus and minus grades,"
said Dr. Mary Pursell, vice-president of
Academk: Affairs.
Students will now have to contend with
the fact that any grade in the "A" range
is not nesessarily a 4.0. An A- is a 3.7,
B+ is a 3.3, B is a 3.0, B- is a 2.7 and so
on.
A 2.0 GPA must still be maintained for
graduation. Therefore, a C- overall
average will not be suffteient to enable a
student to graduate.
The earliest possible date for the
institution of the new grading policies is
for the fall semester of 1987.
"We w o n i be able to format the new
grading procedures on the computer for
the fall semester of '86 and we doni want
to have two grading systems for one
academic year by introducing the system
in the spring of '67," sakl Pursell.
The second polk:y being amended for
the fall '87 semester is for the case when
a student fails a class but opts to repeat
the course.
In such circumstances, if the student
passes the class the second time
around, the credit hours for the repeated
course will not be added to the credit
hours attempted. Therefore, it will be as
if the student took the class once and
passed.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
EDITORIAL
Introducing our new staff.
Time to put away your bathing suit and the surrtan oil. Hard as it is to face,
September is here, and it's time to hit the books.
With the coming of fall, there' have been more than a few changes in the
staff here at the Eagle Eye. Joining me as Co-Editor is Chris Fischer, who
was Feature Editor last year. Chris and I wish to welcome Sue Berger and
Jeffrey Hilty as our new News Editors.
As reporters, Jeff and Sue were very valuable members of our News staff
last year, and we're now proud to see them climb to leadership positions at the
Eagle Eye.
Our new Sports Editors are Bill Alexander and Bill Hunter, who have worked
closely both in the sports and features departments in the past (Hunter was
our "foriegn correspondent" last semester). Chris and I are confident that Bill
and Bill will more than fill the position left over by previous editors.
Last years "Campus Line" columnist and SCC reporter Jennifer Brady will be
taking over tiie Feature Editor position left open by Chris' promotion. Jennifer
wHI no doubt prove to be an even greater asset to us than she has been in the
past.
Ooug Reier is our new Photography Editor, who, so far, has proved to be
both motivated and talented. He has gathered a staff of four photographers
around him and has already managed to help us aquire some much-needed
equipment. We're very lucky to have him on our staff.
Maria Hull has stepped into the rather sizeable shoes of our previous
Business Managers, and has done so admirably-working through the muck
arKi mire of numbers that are our finances with patience and grace.
Tanya Baskovk:h, star of the major motton picture A Walk 1Q ihe Night will
remain on as our Advertising Editor, and our only hope is that our advertisers
doni find out about her previous screen career. (Only kidding, Tanya)
Our new Advertising Sales person is Patrkia Durfee, who last year was our
Fashton Columnist, and who coordinated our "Swimsuit Issue." Anytx)dy who
k>oks this much like Lena Tumer cani be all bad.
Many of our harshest critics will be pleased to hear that we've hired a Copy
Editor-Tina Hoffman, who several months ago worked as our Layout
manager. We're all very happy to have Tina back again-now we have
someone to take the blame for that rarity of rarities, a misspelled word in the
Eagle Eye.
Finally. Maureen Campbell has become that unsung hero-our
Announcement Coordinator. She has all our sympathies.

Dear EdKor,
I'm sure Custom Management
Corporation had good intentions when
they replaced the computerized
"Vali-dine" meal card system from last
year, with the system that they are
presently using.
However, good
intentions don't always lead to success,
and this case is not an exception. I have
heard nothing but negative criticism in
the nearly two weeks that the cards have
been in use.
There are several specific complaints
that I have heard about the cards. One
is that it takes a much longer time for the
new card to be marked off than it took to
"punch" the old card in the machine.
Two, the cards are so flimsy and weak, I
doubt if there will be anyone who will not
have to get a new card by the end of the
semester because theirs has become
too beat up. t'll also hate to see what a
good rainstorm will do to these cards.
Third, a friend pointed out to me that the
cards are not even the right size to fit
into a wallet, a very convenient and
popular place to keep a meal ticket.
I suspect that it is probably too late to
replace the new system for this
semester, which is unfortunate. I'm glad
that Custom Management Corporatton is
trying new ideas to see what will work
best, but please, don't make us live with
this new system any longer than we have
to.

Himes bomb scare turns out to be hoax
By S u e Berger and
Jeffrey Hilty
Co-News Edilors
A bomb threat made last week to the
Himes Building on the campus of Lock
Haven University will be difficult to trace
because it was made on the 1-800 line,
according to Richard Hepner, Director of
LHU Law Enforcement.
This was the second such threat
made to the Himes Building within the last
week, possibly by the same individual
according to personnel in the building.
The Admissions Office, located in
Himes, received an out-of-state call on
the toll free line saying that a bomb would
explode in the building betw/een 2 and 3
p.m.
Law Enforcement searched the
building at noon but found no bomb. At
I p . m . , campus police asked all
personnel to leave the building.
Sandra Hammann, Director of Public
Relations, whose office is located in the
Himes Building, moved to the Eagle
Eye Offices where she continued her
work.
Kathy Ryan, a secretary in the PR
Office , went to Sullivan Hall to work for
the rest of the afternoon.
Ryan said that she had to come in
early Friday morning so that she could
complete the work she did not get done
due to the interruption.
Although the bomb threat was a hoax,
Hammann said, "You have to treat each
threat seriously, because you never
know when it's a crank call or the real
thing I"
Law Enforcement is continuing its
investigation into the incidents.

Old Lock Haven Hospital
turned into practice fields
Athletic teams at Lock Haven
University will have a new practfce field
this year when work is completed at the
site of the oki Lock Haven Hospital.
The old hospital building, on
Susquehanna Avenue about half a b k x *
from Zimmerli Gymnasium, was torn down
in June.
The hospital was built in 1908 and
used until Lock Haven Hospital moved to
its present location on Cree Drive in
1961.
Workers from Cuyahoga Wrecking Co.
of Cleveland, Ohio, are now in the
process of grading the land in
preparation for the new practtoe field.
A sidewalk and steps have been
installed, and a new driveway opened to
the adjacent Clinton County Courthouse
Annex. Eventually, a fence will be
erected around the fieki.
The demolition project was given top
priority in the State Univertsity System
by the Department of General Services
last year.
Costs for the project were originally
budgeted at $150,000, but has more than
doubled because of problems with
asbestos.
The contractor found more asbestos in
the building than was originally thought.
and by federal law all of the asbestos
had to be removed before the demolition
coukl proceed.
After 98 tons of contaminated material
were removed, an additional $200,000
was added to the cost of the project.
When demolKton began, the contractor
moved qutokly, razing the old hospital in
about two weeks..- Rubble was then
removed and work began on the practice
field.
"It should be quite attractive," said
George Marshall, Lock Haven University
vice president for administration. "We
need additional
playing
fields
desperately. The f iekls we now have are
used from sunup to sundown."
The okJ hospital buikling grounds were
donated to Lock Haven University by the
Clinton County Commisstoners.
Several other major construction
projects have been approved by the
State for Lock Haven University.
Design work is under way on
renovation projects for the Akeley
Building and Price Auditorium.
The State Capital budget for 1987,
approved over the summer, includes
$990,000 for electrical work at the
University.

Richter watercolors presented in Sloan Gallery this week
By Jennifer Brady
Features Editor
Wilmer S. Richter, who has donated
about 104 works of art to Lock Haven
University, was the first artist to be
featured this semester in an exhibition
opening on September 8, in Sloan
Gallery.
After students and faculty had the
opportunity to admire his collection-of
landscapes ranging from Delaware
County , PA to Venice, Italy, Professor
Stanislaus Wisniewski introduced
Rtohter's son, William C . Richter, who
was there to talk about his father's
works.
Wisniewski said that Richter's works
represent a total dedication for one
man's passton for art.
He added that at the age of 95. Richter
still enjoys painting, and had plans to
visit each of the 50 states to do a
painting in each ona .
William Richter said, "(regret that my
father cannot be here tonight. I know he
wouki be pleased to see this exhibit."

This is one of many landscapes done In watercolors by
95-year-old Wilmer S. Richter.
Richter donated 104 of his
worl(s to LHU. His collection was put on display in Sloan Gallery
on September 8.
He went on to describe some of the
events in his father's career, and also
what it was like to grow up as the son of a
great artist.
Richter said even though his father
has sons and daughters who attended
other schools, he chose to donate his
works to LHU because, "I don't think
there's a back road, pond, or farm that he
hasnt sketched in this area."
He said his father was born in
Philadelphia and quit public school after
eighth grade, but was able to study at
the Philadelphia Academy of Fine Arts
when he was 19.
Foltowing World War I. Richter used
war scenes sketched in a 5" X 8"
notebook as the portfolto he showed the
editor of the Saturday Evening Post
magazine, which the editor later
published.
He has done illustrations and covers
for other magazines as well.
Professor May Dyer of the LHU Art
Department said, "The paintings are
extremely well done and are a definite
asset to us."

British students having fun
By Sarah Gibbons
StaffReporter
"Fun, fun, fun!" That seems to be the
general opinion so far of the group of
English students here at Lock Haven
University.
The group of 18 students, including
myself, are spending one semester here
as part of an exchange scheme from
Bulmershe College in Reading, about 30
miles from London.
Although we have been here a
relatively short time and are still rather
overwhelmed by everything, we are
generally enjoying the experience.
For most of us, this is our first visit to
the States, and one of which we have
dreamed for a tong time. As a result, we
are grabbing the opportunity with both
hands and making the most oif it.
We have been made to feel extremely
welcome by our fellow students who
seem much less reserved than those in
England, and we enjoy the International
atmosphere at LHU.
Naturally, we have already noticed
many differences in the lifestyle: some
for better and some for worse.
The most nottoeable and inconvenient
difference is obviously the drinking laws.
Whilst not being a group of alcoholics,
we are used to being able to drink when
and where we want. So, the harsh
drinking laws are not easy to accept!
The sportsmen among us prefer the
American attitude to sports: there is
more dedteation here, and they approve
of the seriousness with which it is taken.
The sports facilities here are far
superior to our own and full advantage of
them is being taken by us.
However, those for drama are inferior
to our own as we are a very drama
orientated college, and those active on
the stage miss this at LHU.
Bulmershe, too, is divided into dorms
or hostels.
Most of us have single rooms and so
sharing is rather strange. There is the
advantage that we get to know more
Americans, but people do miss the
privacy of a single room. Especially the
washbasins we have in Reading-they
just save that early morning mad dash to
the bathroom!
This is somewhat compensated for by
the presence of phones in each room.
They only add to our laziness, but surely
this can be excused when you consider
we have to climb all the steps to reach
our dorms, thanks to the powers that be
who placed us in North and Gross Halls!
The food is great, if you like salad that
is, but it becomes rather monotonous!
The food at Bulmershe is not wonderful
but there is some variety, although you
only get one serving.
It is too early to comment on classes,
but it woukl appear a subject is exptored
in less depth over here, thus making
things easier than normal to us.
We have six or nine hours a week
which is less than we are used to, so
there are no complaints on that score!
We are here for 16 weeks, which will fly
by, even though we will all miss certain
aspects, or more probably certain
PEOPLE of England I'm sure! For now
though, we're making the most of this
fantastic experience and enjoying life to
the fullest.
Thanks to everyone for the friendly
welcome!
Tootsie reveals himself this
weekend at the S C C movie
By Ken Foster
StaffReporter
Released in 1982, Tootsie was the last
in a string of comedies featuring
cross-dressing and androgynous
characters—certainly one of the more
bizarre film genres to gain mass
popularity.
Tootsie was preceeded by the French
comedy La Cage Au Folies. a story about
a man who wants to hide from his
prospective in-laws the fact that his
'mother' is actually a transvestite.
Then there was Victor/Victoria, in
whtoh Julie Andrews portrayed an out of
work singer who becomes a star by
masquarading as a man and getting a
job as a female impersonator.
When Tootsie followed with virtually
the same plot, many peopte expected
that it would be a stale flop. Instead, it
became one of the funniest and most
popular comedies in history.
Dustin Hoffman giv«s a terrific
performance as an unemployed actor
who throws on a dress and becomes
Amertoa's favorite soap opera actress.
The rest of the cast is also excellent.
Bill Murray ad libs his way though the role
of Hoffman's room mate, who is not too
thrilled about his friend's new wardrobe.
Teri Garr plays Hoffman's neunDtic
girlfriend, who doesn't realize that the
actress she hates so much actually is
her tx)yfriend, and Jessica Lange won
an Oscar for her supporting performance
as a young actress who is unable to
understand the sexual attraction she has
for her seemingly female co-star.
Sponsored by the SCC, Tootsie will be
shown Friday, Saturday, and Sunday at
8p.m in the lower level of the PUB.

Liabilities for
underage
drinking
examined
By Karl BoKz
StaffReporter
The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
on December 30, 1983 passed a law
stating that any person (including the
corporatton or organization for whom that
person works) who serves a minor
alcoholic beverages, will be held
absolutely liable for any harm that
results.
This law also forbids reimbursement by
insurance carriers for claims against
violators.
Every year, claims against fraternities
are made by hotels, restaurants and
clubs because of alcohol-related
vandalism done to their premises during
fraternity functions. It is also possible
for universities to assert financial
claims against fraternities for vandalism
done to university property connected
with the consumption of alcohol at a
fraternity party.
Colleges and universities across the
state are threatened with large claims
which could force them to close.
Consider these:
A Pennsylvania university was
recently required to pay $5,000,000 to
the families of three minor students who
died in a drunk driving accident following
a cocktail party at a professor's home.
A
Pennsylvania
c o l l e g e is
presently being sued for $3,000,000
because a minor student got drunk at a
dorm "keg" party and later had a drunk
driving accident resulting in two deaths.
A P e n n s y l v a n i a university is
being sued for an amount in excess of
$1,000,000 because a minor student
became intoxicated at a dorm party and
fell down a stainwell, causing permanent
damage.
A P e n n s y l v a n i a c o l l e g e was
sued for $2,500,000 by the parents of a
high school senior who got drunk at a
fraternity party and was later seriously
injured in a drunk driving accident.
It is necessary as students, faculty,
and administrators that we educate
ourselves to our personal liability and it is
necessary to work together in dealing
with this problem.
Army ROTC Cadets finish first
For the second consecutive year, the
LHU Army ROTC cadets (Eagle
Company) in competition with some 150
colleges and universites from Maine to
Florida, finished first at the Army ROTC
Advanced Camp, Fort Bragg, North
Carolina.
Each year, senior cadets in the
program must attend the six-week
training and evaluation camp at Fort
Bragg. Cadets are evaluated daily in five
major areas: Job Performance and
Leadership, Tactics, Land Navigation,
the Army Physical Fitness Test, and
Rifle Marksmanship.
An elaborate, computer generated
scoring system assigns grade points for
subareas, and by the end of camp each
cadet has a five-digit score which
determines his or her exact ranking.
Major Gerald Nye, Officer-in-Charge of
the LHU Army ROTC said, "Only host
institutions (LHU's program is an
extension of "host" Penn State) appear
on the computer printout, but for the
.second consecutive year LHU's score
has exceeded that of the 111 host,
institutions.
"LHU cadets excel each year in
Leadership and Job Performance," said
Nye.
He added that five of the 15 attendees
this year scored in the top 10 percent
campwide, and 11 were in the top
one-third.
Nye believes most of the credit for
their success goes to the cadets, but
the assistance of the cadre advisors.
Captain Alan Davison and Master
Sergeant James Hannligan shouki not be
overtooked.
Nye said, "Outstanding togistical and
administrative support from Sergeant
First Class Dzintars Zuicens and
secretary Diana Haines freed the cadre
advisors and returning seniors to
concentrate on training.
The 15 cadets who made up the first
place Eagle Company include: Steve
Donakison, Rick Busko, Brian Jackson,
Kim Thompson, Mel Greene, Lee Traost,
Curt Beck, Bob Rote, Bob Hoffman,
Darryl Martin, Dave Martin, Colleen
Hackenberg, Cindy Wamsley, Dave
Rtohard, and Alan Statham.
Over 50 countries represented
ISA enrollment highest ever at LHU
By lUlilce Daily
StaffReporter
Boasting their largest enrollment ever,
the International Student Association
(ISA) has grown to be a club concerned
with educating the campus and
community about international issues.
England, Scotland, and West
Germany are among the countries
represented by the 50 new foreign
students now attending the international
relations group according to Eric
Otiende, the ISA president from Kenya.
The close-knit club continues to be a
"mini-United Nations" right here at Lock
Haven
University,
encouraging
Americans to join and have a chance to
become exposed to foreign studies.
ISA, one of the largest student
organizations on campus with over 100
members, attributes Americans with
much of its long-standing success.
"Although the title of the club is the
International Student Association, it is
not exclusively for international
students," Otiende said. "Some of our
greatest assets and most energetic and
dedicated members are Americans,
including some of our highest ranking
members."
Highlights from last semester included
directly aWing the UNICEF program and a
presentation on world economic crisis by
Dr. Mayorga Cortez. The future plans of
the organization will remain the same: To
continue sharing cultural heritage with
the local community and to extend
knowledge of the
international
community to the Keystone Central
school districts. Cordial relations with
the fraternities will continue to grow in the
future.
Otiende asserted that Lock Haven
University is widely recognized as a
college with international "flavor".
"Our doors will always remain open for
more American members," Otiende said.

become adjusted to new surroundings.
Professor Denise Warner, originally
from Ftorida, has experienced her own
set of fears about starting her new
position at Lock Haven University.
Warner, who can be found teaching
costume design in the Theater
Department, claims that she felt the
anxiety of leaving the known, to face the
unknown, but she eagerly met the
challenge.
Warner earned a Bachelor of Arts
degree in Theater and Speech
Communications at Mercer University in
Macon, Georgia.
She then received certification in
secondary education and, shortly after
attended graduate school.
Eventually, she decided that she
wanted a degree in costume design.
Although she claims that most of her
costume work has been done within
educational settings, Warner has done
work with summerstock companies in
Kentucky, Baltimore, Maryland, and
Orlando, Florida.
Warner said that she is very pleased
with her decision to teach at LHU.
She has always been intrigued by
Pennsylvania. She said the people within
the community appear to be warm and
friendly.

On the wrong side of the ball
By Joe Krause
Sports Columnist
"I always turn to the sports page first,"
Former Chief Justice Earl Warren once
boasted, "because the sports page
records man's achievements. The front
page has nothing but man's failures."
Times certainly do change.
Yesterday, we were talking about the
future. Today, we reminisce about the
past.
It is becoming more and more apparent
over the last decade that our
achievements as well as our failures in
sport are directly related to the use and
misuse of drugs.
Last January, less than twenty-hours
after the New England Patriots reached
the Nations most watched sporting
event, six players tested positive for
drug use.
J u n e , 1 7 , 1 9 8 6 , Len Bias
w a s a n achievement. The former
University of Maryland all-time lading
scorer, became the Boston Celtics first
round selection in this past year's NBA
Draft.
Forty Hours Later, Bias died from what
later would be diagnosed as cocaine
intoxication. His celebrated achievement
became a sudden failure, clouding the
complexion of this already blurred
picture.
A sad, sad story that needed to
happen.
If it werent an athlete, it would have
been another mere statistto. The fact
that it was Len Bias, an athlete, made it
memorable and made it the topto of
discussion on every corner, in every
town across the U.S.
Maryland officials woukl later site the
draft, the meetings and the tong season
as to much pressure for one individual to
endure.
Still, this type of pressure actively
goes on, whether it be professional,
collegiate, or high school. Winning is the
bottom line. To state an already
overstated thesis. Intercollegiate Sport
creates
schools for
scandal,
embarassment and misplaced emphasis.
NCAA addresses the issue
I guess you can say that in the wake
of a tragedy, acttons tend to become
louder than words. Or so it seems.
Take for example, the National
Collegiate Athletto Association (NCAA),
the governing body for collegiate
athlettos. They have responded whh a
few amendments of their own in an
attempt to ease the pressure.
E F F E C T I V E , August 1, 1986:
"The student-athlete annually, prior to
the participation in intercollegiate
competitton during the academto year in
question, shall sign a statement
submitting information related to
eligibility, recruitment, financial aid.
amateur status and involvement in
organized gambling activities... while
consenting to be tested for drugs. Failure
to complete and sign the aforementioned
statement shall result in ineligibility."
Times certainly do change.
Another attempt implemented for the
first time by the NCAA, pertains to post
season competition. All players on all
teams must submit to a random test for
drugs, prior to entering
into
championship play. Positive results
mean
disqualification
from
competition...IF, the players found
positive are among the top eight
members of your team. If not, individual
Players who fall into the other category
automatically become ineligible.
In general terms, if your goirtg to use
chemicals, forget about the glory and
honor that accompany championships.
Your ineligible for the brass ring.
In the aftermath of it all, what does this
mean for the athlete and for society,
especially since our society remains
toiled in relative obscurity over what
action is proper in fighting this ugly
situation.
"Our only solution is to get
to the big drug pushers and
shoot them!"- Dr. Ken Cox
Should we test athletes for
drugs?
No matter how you look at it. Drugs
steal talent and end careers. Something
must be done. Do we. or should we
randomly test our athletes for drugs?
Some will say no and argue the 4th
amendment in their defense. Mandatory
drug testing is a degrading and
humiliating invasion of privacy.
Au Contrarel Those in favor argue. If
you have nothing to hkle, why shouki you
object to a urinalysis?
Apply this scenark) to athletes, and
some will say that the athlete is publto
property, admired by the general public.
They k>se their rights under the fourth
amendment. They are role models for
youngsters; they shouklnt use drugs.
Soccer player, Steve Paguia has a
different idea, "Why single out the
athlete, lets test everyone for drugs."
"I'm for it," says Junior Price, LHU
Basketball star. "The publto has a right to
know."
Sharing the same opinion, LHU
Fullback, Roosevelt Brown said, "If your
an athlete, you don't use drugs. Lets get
in line, I'll be first."
Soccer Player, Sean Perry added, "I
think we should test our athletes, its
good for the individual sports."
Head Football Coach Jack Fisher
expressed mixed emotions. "I think drug
testing has application, however, I
question the validity of the actual tests.
Are the results reliable?"
One look at recent statistics released
by the Journal of the American Medical
Associatton will help you relate to Coach
Fisher's response. Labs with government
contracts
arrived
at
incorrect
conclusions up to 100 percent of the
time.
Furthermore, The method of urinalysis
most commonly used in drug testing (the
"EMIT kit") has also proven unreliable.
The kit gives a false positive result about
10 to 40 percent of the time.
Dr. Charles Eberle, Athletic Director
had this response, "I would like to do it
right now; hell, its gotten out of hand. I'm
not worried about invasion." Of course,
as Eberle pointed out, there is a questton
of cost. It may not be feasible for our
school to test every student-athlete.
Schools can spend up to $100 per
athlete, depending on how extensive the
testing program is. There is the 4-5
series test, which is minimal in cost and
only detects certain chemicals. From
there, the series gets more extensive
and mora expensive. As Prof. David
Tomasi, Head Athletic Trainer, points
out, "It's getting more and more
expensive. Right now, were looking at six
or seven thousand dollars just for the fall
.semester."
I wonder. Should saving money be our
first concern?
Other interesting responses include
the foltowing:
"I'm not opposed to it [drug testing],
but I'd be surprised if we would." Head
Lacrosse Coach, Rose Ann Neff.
Assistant Athletic Director and Head
FieW Hockey Coach Sharon Taylor sakl,
"I dont think anybody should be tested.
Random testing is a violation of rights."
(Keep in mind. The Ladies Field Hockey
Team competes in Division I, so they
may be subjected to testing a lot
sooner).
"I'm sort of on the fence about it. If it
was mandatory, I would certainly go
along with it." Lenny Long, Head Soccer
Coach.
Presklent Willis added, "It may be an
infringement of students rights."
Tutorial Coordinator, Don Pearman
said, "No, absolutely not, its not a
cure-all."
Head Men's Basketball Coach Kurt
Kanaskie said, 'I'm for drug testing,
there's no better deferent."
I suppose there are no right or wrong
answers. However, time has come to
address this issue and take action. Ih
sport, its not a questton of who's using
drugs, but a questton of who's not using
drugs.
Times certainly do change.
"Why
single
out
the
athletes,? Lets test everyone
for drugs."-Steve Paguia
New Men's
X-C coach
at LHU
By Dan Hanson
^X3rts Reporter
This summer Lock Haven University
saW good-bye to 17 year cross country
coach Jim Dolan, and welcomed the new
coach, Kurt Smith.
Smith may be the new guy on the
block, but he is no stranger to LHU.
Smith did his undergraduate work here,
and ran cross country for the Bald
Eagles under Dolan.
"I always enjoyed it (Lock Haven)
because of its size," Smith said . "There
was always someone to turn to for help,
and the people are very warm and
friendly."
A native of Mechantosburg, Smith has
no previous coaching experience on the
collegiate level, but he coached the
Lock Haven High School cross country
team to four successful seasons before
being hand picked by Dolan to replace
him as head coach at LHU.
'I am a go-out-and- get-the-job-done
kind of coach. I'm not a rah-rah kind of
coach. I tell the runners what needs to
be done, and the rest is up to them."
Smith saki.
Smith is married and has three
children. He enjoys coaching, cross
country skiing, cycling, and fly fishing.
For Smith, coaching is more than a job,
it does have its rewards.
"I like working with the young men,
seeing them grow
acedamically,
mentally, and helping them through tough
times."
In college sports there is a lot of
pressure to win, and some schools will go
to all lengths to achieve this goal. Smith
believes there is more to winning than a
team's record.
"There is a valuable lesson to be
learned on the cross country course,"
Smith sakl. 'H the athlete realizes his full
potential, that is more important than
having a winning record."

Fisher optimistic about upcomming season
By Bill Alexander
Co-Sports Editor
With 16 starters returning from the
1985 team. Head coach Jack Fisher has
an "optimistic" outtook on the upcomming
season.
"We have worked tong and hard, and
we have a tot of experience returning. If
we execute well, we'll win games," Rsher
said.
Quarterback Pat Cahill will again be
leading the Eagles offense. Cahill rushed
for a team high 634 yards and threw for
an additional 609 last year. He also led
the team in scoring with 42 points (7
TD's).
"Pat made tremendous progress last
year and will be our field general on
offense," said Fisher.
Joining Cahill in the backfiekl will be
co-captian Rosie Brown at fullback, and
Tom Smykowski and Bruce Pendelton will
fill the halfback positions.
Brown, a second-team All-Conference
player last year, rushed for 548 yards
and scored six touchdowns in 1985 while
Smykowski had 248 yards rushing but no
touchdowns.
Pendelton played quarterback in 1985
but is moving to halfback this year. He
rushed for 10 yards and passed for 28
others last season.
The offensive line is anchored by
co-captain John Elsenhooth at tackle
and center Jim McGonnell.
On defense, co-captain and inside
linebacker Stan Allen will lead an
experienced group of returning players.
Allen led the team in tackles with 114 last
year.
Jeff Swanson (strong saftey), Mike
Major (defensive end), and
Steve
Suriano (nose tackle) will help lead the
defensive attack for the Eagles.
According to Fisher, all the teams will
be tough, but his primary objective is to
win the season opener.
"Lyocming is returning almost all of
last years starters on offense and
defense," Fisher said. "Their quarterback
is ona of the finest we will meet all year
and they have a good group of
receivers."
Fisher continued by saying, "Their
offensive line is big and experienced. On
defense, they have a strong secondary
and we will have to be able to throw the
ball on them to win."
Defending Pennsylvinia State Athletto
Conference
Champion
(PSAC),
Bloomsburg and Indiana will be strong
also.
The team is hoping for a big fan turnout
on Saturday. A victory here, and the
team could be on their way to a PSAC
Championship.
New football booster club
formed by merger
By Bill Hunter
Co-Sports Editor
In a recent merger, the people of Lock
Haven and members of the Lock Haven
University football staff have joined
together to form a Lock Haven University
football booster club.
According
to
booster
club
vice-president Pat Leone, the merger is
an effort to "brklge the gap between the
community and the university."
Leone-along with booster club
officers
President Jim Shirey and
Secretary/Treasurer Chariie Mulner~are
trying to develop a scholarship fund to
attract some of the better football
players to Lock Haven.
Head Football Coach Jack Fischer
said, "We're taking this idea one step at
the time, and are hoping for the best."
At this Saturday's football game, the
Haven booster club will be raffling off a
Suzuki 125 A.T.V. to raise money for the
program.

were three ladies
who had an
outstanding game for the Haven: Diane
Lokey, Kim Hasson and Ginny Neiss.
'Our offense needs a lot of work,
especially in front of tha cage. Although I
felt it was a pretty good game
defensively, I think we definitely need to
work together more as a team," saki
junior Kim Hasson. "We did very well in
the first half, but we just werent
executing anything in the second."
The Haven's next game will be heM on
Saturday at the University of
Connecticut in a tournament type
situation. The Lady Eagles are playing
against the University of Maine team,
meanwhile, the Michigan State team is

In a grudge match against arch rival
Penn State, the Lock Haven Field
Hockey Team was denied a victory by
the score of 1-0.
"I was not pleased at all with the
team's pertormance. If we would have
played moderately like we did on Sunday,
we probably would have won by three
goals," said Head Coach Sharon Taytor.
In the second half of the match, the
Lady Eagles did not get a shot off or
have any penalty corners. The number
eight ranked Penn State team scored
their first and only goal indirectly off of a
penalty corner at 16:25 into the second
half.
Taylor said, "We didnt generate any
attack or pressure their goalie at all."
