Alumnus lectures at Science Convocation
By Mike Flanagan
Focusing his lecture on Legionnaires'
Disease, Dr. Gary L. Lattimer, a 1961
graduate of Lock Haven University and
currently the chief for infectious diseases at
D i v i n e P r o v i d e n c e H o s p i t a l and
WiUiamsport Hospital, deUvered the address at the 24th Annual Science Convocation yesterday afternoon in Ulmer
Planetarium.
Before venturing into his speech titled
"Medical Sleuthing-Diagnosing New
Diseases," Dr. Lattimer told the audience
about his days as an undergraduate at Lock
Haven. "1 had no ambition to be a
doctor," Dr. Lattimer said. "I spent my
first two years in the phys ed department."
"As part of the curriculum, though, 1
had to take chemistry. 1 found that almost
as much fun as bouncing a basketball. 1
changed my major to biology. In medical
school, 1 had no doubts 1 could compete
with others," Dr. Lattimer said.
Dr. Lattimer presented a slide show dealing with Legionnaires' Disease, a disease
that overcame many American Legion
members while at a 1976 convention in
Philadelphia.
He called the disease a "frightening
phenomena" and said "if you don't know
the cause - then you don't know the treatment.
Dr. Lattimer, who is regarded as one of
the world's leading experts on Legionnaires' disease, stated that the cause was
later found to be bacteria isolated from the

lung tissue. He also commented on some
startling facts of the bacteria.
"We thought the bug was rare, but tests
found the organism in water samples and
cooling water towers in hospitals. We are
exposed to it daily, but we don't get the
disease," Dr. Lattimer said.
The treatment for the disease is with different kinds of antibiotics, according to Dr.
Lattimer. The doctor said that work is still
being done with the disease because of a
number of questions. One of the questions
deals with the organism being found in
drinking water but infection being uncommon.
At the beginning of the program, awards
were presented to outstanding students in
Biology, Chemistry, Geology, and Physics.
Roberta Rothen won the Biology award,
John Cope the Geology award, and the
Physics award went to Roland Benzon.
Mitch Miller received the freshman
Chemistry award and Lori Myers was cited
for her work in Organic Chemistry.
Kathryn Brady received a special scholarship award and the David and Ann Ulmer
Planetarium Management Scholarship
Award went to Marlin Hunsberger.
Professor Zane Kaufman, who began
teaching at LHU in 1960, received a special
appreciation award.
Dr. Arthur Gray, chairman of the
Science Convocation Committee, was the
Master of Ceremonies.

How will four more years of Reagan affect students ?
By Kim Wilkinson
After Tuesday's re-election of Ronald
Reagan as President of the United States,
the Eagle Eye questioned students and
faculty about their predictions of four more
years.
"How do you feel that students and
universities will be affected by another four
years of the Reagan Administration?" was
the question put to these people.
Students:
Stacy Aumiller, junior, journalism, "I
think things will continue as they are and
this is simply giving Reagan the chance to
finish the programs that he's already
started."
Jennifer Kerst, senior, sociology, " I feel
Reagan can furthur destroy what he's
already attempted. And he will destroy."
John Haselrig, senior, economics, " I
think we will see furthur cuts in social programs in Reagan's attempt to not raise
taxes. As for effects on universities, I see no
mkjor changes."
Reed Reynolds, freshman, undeclared,
"1 think all educational benefits will be cut.
I think that it will do more harm than good
and people will be sorry they elected him."

Lori Warfel, senior, psychology, "There
will be less money for fmancial aid which
will put a lot of students out of school."
Charles Gustin, senior, biology, "I feel
comfortable with Ronald Reagan as President as long as he makes consciencious efforts in nuclear arms control."
Joseph Durney, senior, HPER, "1 think
that federally funding for higher education
will continue to decrease as it has the past
four years. The greatest impact will be on
middle class students."
Kevin Lafferty, senior, special education,
"1 don't like Reagan. I don't feel safe.
Reagan projects a false image, like
everything's fine. I think Mondale would
have done a better job. I think that
Reagan's star wars proposal is just making
things between the super powers worse than
they already are."
Hazel Myers, junior, management
science, "I feel we as students are going to
be royally screwed over the next four
years."
Mike Esposito, sophomore, management
science, "People must have been satisfied
because it certainly wasn't a clo-se race."
Jennifer
Livingston,
junior.

English/French, " I think the students will
lose a lot of money. Reagan wants the
defense, and he doesn't care how we get our
education."
Julie Pasqualini, sophomore, political
science, "I think the first cuts were
necessary for his program to get underway
and eventually the cuts will level out."
Maureen Fry, j u n i o r , physical
educ./rec, "I think that Reagan is a strong
leader, but I think that he should be more
aware of how the funds are being spent
once they are allocated."
Chris Morley, senior, English, "I think
students are going to suffer, students just
don't have the funds to go to college.
Reagan's guaranteed student loans aren't
even guaranteed."
Abbie Fisher, senior, special education,
" I hope that Reagan will have a positive effect on education. Hopefully all the funding cuts have been enough and he won't
need to cut in the next four years."
Professors:
Dr. Saundra Hybels, journalism, "I hope
we live through it."
Dr. Lawrence Farley, political science.

"The trend will continue; less taxpayers'
money will be going toward education and
students will continue. The good thing
about Democracy is that people get what
they deserve."
Dr. Francis Perna, political science, " I
think the election of Reagan heightens the
risk of nuclear war with the Russians in the
near term."
Dr. Wilham Reich, English, "1 think the
election sharply increases the risk of nuclear
war."
Robert Perry, English, "There are going
to be fewer funds for disadvantaged and
special students."
Joe Nicholson, English, " I ' m concerned
that the budget deficit could cause a
worsening of the economy unless it's resolved, and it's not clear to me how the President intends to solve the problem."
Virginia Martin, English, "There will be
less money. He doesn't give a damn about
education. He's more concerned about getting people to join the Army."
Carolyn Perry, writing instructor, "I
think money is going to be very tight for
education. I don't think Reagan has the
right goals for education."

n Eagle Eye D Friday, N o v e m b e r 9, 1984

No free advertising here
Contrary to what a lot of people might think is true, the Eagle Eye
does not give free advertising t o a business.
So far this semester, we have received two letters to the editor from
students urging fellow students to check out the Eagle Wing snack
bar and its new caterers. Both of those letters have found their way to
the circular garbage can in the Eagle Eye office.
Why should we print these letters when we have advertisers who
pay money for a spot in the paper? It's like you or me paying money to
go to a movie an somebody behind you walks in free. Both people, in
this case, are reaping the same benefits but one paid for it.
We will run announcements or stories for organizations and clubs,
but have not and will not run announcements and letters for profitseeking businesses.
How do you think it would look for us if, say, one of our food advertisers read a letter to the Editor with lines like 'instead of going
downtown for a sub, stay on campus' or 'we have the lowest prices
around for the best quality food?'
If you want an ad in the paper, stop down at the Eagle Eye and talk
to one of our advertising people.
Michael

Dear Editor,
Thank God that the elections are over!
Perhaps now we students can sit through a
class without having a professor's political
view forced upon us.
For the past month, most classes have
had an extra spice added to the lectures.
Whether in EngUsh, Math, or Science class,
I've heard about the professor's opinion of
the presidential candidates. I didn't realize
our professors second as campaign
managers and political geniuses on their
days off. Their political opinions should
not be a part of our class time especially
since they are grossly one-sided. I'm sure
most students would appreciate these "insights" to political warfare better if both
sides of the issue were presented. All that I
personally heard were many biased professors nit-picking. Upon inquiry, I found
that many students agree with me. We
didn't pay for our English prof to complain
about the light set-up during the presidential candidate debates, and we didn't pay
our math and science profs to debate
regressive taxes.
I agree that students should be informed
about politics since we help make political
history. But L H U ' s students minds

shouldn't be poisoned by biased professors.
Let the politics be taught by our political
department!
Sincerely,
A Non-Political Major

Dear Editor,
I would like to express my gratitude and
appreciation to a great bunch of people I
call my friends. My 18th birthday was Friday Nov. 2nd and to me, it didn't mean
much. I probably would have treated it like
any other Friday if it weren't for my
friends. These people know who they are
and I thank them for helping to make my
18th birthday extra special. I usually don't
appreciate others making a big deal over me
but this really was special. Thanks to my
friends my birthday was celebrated from
Thursday until Tuesday. 1 would like to express special thanks to Lori Molinaro and
to Michelle Royer.
Sincerely,
Thankful,
Matt Loulie

Three students to vie for Miss Clinton County
By Karen Myers
Three students will be participating in the
Sixth Annual Miss Clinton County Scholarship Pageant. The students are, Tina Bensinger, Mary Cacolice, and Dori Mitchell.
Bensinger, a freshman majoring in
elementary education, is from Montoursville. She is currently the feature
twirler for the LHU band. She has participated in both State and National twirling competitions and will twirl the baton for
her talent presentation. Bensinger has never
participated in a pageant before; however,
she does have some modeling experience.
She would like to represent Clinton County
to develop a betteer understanding of the
county she will be residing in for the next
four years.
Cacolice, a junior majoring in education
with a specialization in German, is from
Harrisburg. She has had 12 years of piano
lessons^nd will play the piano for her talent
presentation. She also has never participated in a pageant before but would like
to represent Clinton County because she
feels that it is a beautiful county and a nice
place to live. She is also looking forward to
meeting Gina Majors, Miss Pennsylvania,
who will be attending the pageant.
Mithcell, a senior majoring in secondary
education-social science, is from Beech
Creek. She is a graduate from Bald EagleNittany High School and is presently the rifle and flag coordinator of the Panther
Band. For her talent, she will perform a rifle twirling and dance routine.

This is not a new experience for Mitchell.
She participated in last year's Miss Clinton
County Scholarship Pageant and said it was
a lot of fun. "I learned a lot last year and
this year I'm learning even more. It doesn't
matter if you win or lose because you gain
so much. There's a feeling of accomplishment once you've participated in the
pageant."

According to Dr. Charles Newcomer,
chairman of the judges committee, these
three girls will be competing among eight
other women. He also added that 50 percent of the score is based on talent and the
other SO percent is based on private interviews, evening gown and swimsuit competitions.
Newcomer said that three scholarships

Dori Mitchell

Mary Cacolice

will be awarded at the pageant. Miss Clinton County will receive $500, first runner
up will receive $250, second runner up will
receive $150, and Miss Congeniality will
receive a $25 gift certificate. Newcomer said
that this year's pageant will be held
November 17 in the Bald Eagle-Nittany
High School Auditorium at 7:30 p.m. '

Office of Foundation Development has
announced a newly established scholarship.
The Dr. Edward Hoberman Scholarship
Fund will provide two scholarships each
year.
The guidelines for the awards state that
the recipients have been accepted into Lock
Haven University (LHU) with a major in
Natural Sciences and that they are chosen
by the Science Faculty of the Lock Haven
High School.
The awards are based on academic
achievement and will be presented at the
Lock Haven High School graduation
ceremony by a member of the Science
Faculty.
"Dr. Hoberman has chosen to reward
outstanding students from Lock Haven
who have elected to attend Lock Haven
University," said Lynn Lytle, Director of
Foundation Development. "This is a
wonderful gesture of support, not only for
the recipient, but in a larger sense, the community and the University as well."
The Dr. Edward Hoberman Scholarship
Fund will have its monies invested and
managed by LHU Foundation.
"The principle shall remain intact while
the interest accrued shall provide for two
awards to be given annually," Lytle said.
Dr. Hoberman was honored at a community dinner earlier this year. Proceeds
from the dinner and Dr. Hoberman's contribution were combined to fund the

scholarship.
The first two recipients will be chosen
this June.

Harrisburg - An eight-point "Mission for
the Pennsylvania State System of Higher
Education (SSHE)" met approval by the
SSHE Board of Governors last week. The
Board adopted the mission statement during public meeting proceedings at Shippensburg University.
In citing the mission of the public universities in Pennsylvania, Chancellor James H.

1982.
"The mission, the charge of this

provide high quality education at an affordable cost.
"It is our responsibility to carry out the
mandate of Act 188, but there is more to
what each of the 14 universities has accomplished during their long histories."
McCormick said, "The universities are

ASS

By Matt Connor,
Jonathon has two goals- to gain acceptance to a reputable college and to lose his
virginity by the end of his senior year.
Sound familiar? It should-its the same
premise of the last weeks movie. Risky
Business. The difference is that while the
main character of Risky Business hires a
hooker, the main character of Class (this
week's movie at Price) has an affair with his
roommates mother.
Jonathan meets said roommate's mom,
Ellen, at a bar where he has just been
humiliated by a blind date. Ellen rescues
Jonathan and soon afterward they enjoy a
liaison in a glass enclosed elevator. Neither,
of course, knows who the other is.
Unfortunately for Jonathan, Ellen
dumps him when she realizes he's only a
schoolboy. Later, Jonathans roomie. Skip,
invites Jonathan home for dinner and it is
then that our. two lovebirds discover each

other s true iueaiity.
One of the more interesting aspects of the
movie is its diverse cast. Rob Lowe, who
this year had the privilage of starring in
three box-office flops {Streets of Fire, Oxford Blues, The Philadelphia Experiment)
played Jonathan's room-mate. Skip.
Ellen, Jonathan's mother is played by the
classy and beautiful international star, Jacqueline Bisset and Oscar winner Cliff
Robertson plays Jonathans AT-T chairman
father (ironically, Robertson now does the
commercials for AT-T.)
Despite this star-studded cast, the best
reviews of the film (and there weren't many
good ones) went to character actor Stuart
Margolin (who had the small role of a
viscious school investigator) and Andrew
McCarthy who played Jonathan with an
"engaging, slightly befuddled presence."
Sponsored by the SCC, Class will be
shown in Price Auditorium this Saturday
and Sunday at 8 p.m.

Sports spotlight

Lori Ferguson and Lori Greiner
Ferguson scored two goals and five assists this year for the field hockey team.
Greiner, also a senior, had one goal and three assists. Both were singled out by coach
Sharon Taylor for their play against Villanova last Friday.

There are major problems
with three athletic fields
By Karen Merlie
What are some of the major problems
with JacIc, Smith and McCollum fields?
Well some people who practice on these
fields everyday had their opinions.
Overusage, teams, classes, intermurals and
locals playing on these fields, all contribute
to the damaging of the fields.
Field hockey coach Sharon Taylor said,
"The clumps in the grass are the danger
factors of Smith field." Charlotte Smith
field is located down by the P.U.B. and is
where the field hockey team practices and
plays their games.
If the fields are being ruined by different
teams and students, why doesn't the school
put a stop to this? "I guess they want to
keep up their social image," stated coach
Rose Ann Neff.
Mr. Jim Meckley, the head of
maintenance, said that there was no
drainage problem on the two fields.
There, however, is a major drainage and
crown problem at Jack Stadium field, according to Athletic Director, Charles
Eberle.

Speece, a freshman
tailback from West
Pittston, scored two
touchdowns in the
35-19 loss to Clarion
last week. He scored
on a one-yard run
and a 39-yard screen
pass from quarterback Pat Cahill.

A drainage ditch, like this one on McCollum Field, presents a hazard for
athletes.

Meckley stated, "We don't have the
money for a new field or even a surface, like
astroturf." This would cost thousands of
dollars.
Three years ago, the college had the
hockey and soccer fields reshaped and sod
laid down. "This alone cost us big bucks,"
commented Medley.
Coach Taylor suggested t h a t , " I f
maintenance would get rid of the grass
clumps, rototill the middle of the field, turning the sod over, and put some seed in
now, and re-seed it in the spring to try to bring back the grass," then the field would be
better to play on.
Coach Neff added,"Not taking anything
away from maintenance here, but I do
think it would be great if we could hire a
professional to come in and work on the
field."
Both coaches agree that there should be a
change of some kind before a player gets
hurt seriously.

How do players like playing on conditions like these? Soccer players, Sean Perry
and Phil Stevenson exclaimed,"It stinks."
Clumps of grass make up McCollum field,
and the ball rolls differently because of this,
said the two.
"We know the school lacks space but we
do think something can be done," explained Perry and Stevenson.
Coach Taylor summed it up best by saying,"If all you had to worry about here was
just coaching, it would be a pleasure, but
more of my concern and worry that goes into these sports is over the condition of the
field. If I'm grey, that's the reason. It is not
the player's performance or the competition, it's the fact that the field has consistently been so terrible. Your never know
whether the next day you walk out on it, if
its even going to be playable."
Mr. Meckley stated,"Plans are being
made for the future."
The old Lock Haven Hospital, a quarter
of a mile out past Zimmerili Gym on Susquehanna Avenue, will probably be torn
down and a field for classes or intermurals
will be worked up on that land sometime in
the future.
What do the coaches think of this plan?
"Probably one of the teams will get the
field. I wouldn't want it," stated Taylor.
She added,"We get a good crowd now,
students won't walk up to our games if we
played on that land."
Coach Neff likes the idea for the practice
field, but feels it's too far for classes to
walk. "1 think a team would be better off
using this field," commented Neff.
Athletic Director, Charles Eberle, thinks
he may have a solution to the problem.
"It's not a good solution, but if it was
followed we would have better fields than
we have now." he said.
There are four different groups that use
the fields according to Eberle. They are
classes, varsity sports, intermurals, and student recreation. Eberle said, we must limit
those four groups in the fields.
Eberle gave the following suggestions on
the field situation. First, classes can't be
moved, so they will continue to use the
fields as they have.
Second, intermurals will all be taken off
campus. They'll be either taken to Petty
Park or down to Piper. The rationale here
being, that intermurals will go to the end of
the earth to beat the devil out of each other.
Third, varsity sports (that is field hockey
and soccer) would be moved off campus,
also, and only be allowed on the fields the
night before a game.
Coaches may object but Eberle explained
the situation further. "If thats the choice,
that they want a nice field to play on or they
not practice on it and not use it—you do it."
Fourth, recreational activities where
security would have to take the student
body and tell them that there's one field for
that kind of play and it is the football practice field. "To do this, you need total
cooperation from all parties in the instituion," exclaimed Eberle.
Simply stated by Eberle,"If the money is
there, fine, let's make everyone happy and
put in astroturf. If not, everyone has to
help out to make this plan work."
"The athletic department would like to
put this issue to bed. We've been talking
about this for twenty years," stated Eberle.
"We all have to give a little bit."

Sherry Derr ends fabulous field hockey career
By Christa Landas
The move to Division I this year did not
affect LHU's field hockey scoring machine.
Sherry Derr.
Derr compiled 22 goals and two assists in
this 1984-85 season against such tough
teams as Villanova and Southwest Missouri
State.
The only sad note is that Sherry Derr is a
senior and played in her final field hockey
game as a crimson and white player last
week. But she went out in style, scoring
both goals in the Villanova game to capture
a big win and put the" Lady Eagle's record
to 12-5-1.
"Her statistics speak for themselves,"
said Lock Haven coach Sharon Taylor.
"Sherry was the high scorer on the team
these last three years. As a freshman, she
was the second highest scorer which was a
great feat considering that she was a
substitute off the bench and only started on
or two games."
Derr explained laughingly about her
freshman year and Ms. Taylor: "She told
me after my freshman year that I might
never start because I'd get so mad because I
wasn't starting. And when I would go in,
I'd just go in and be so mad that sometimes
I'd hit one in. Ms. Taylor thought it was
just because I was mad at her."
It all started for Sherry at Donegal High
School in a small place called Maytown
where she played four years each of basketball and hockey. She also competed in two
years of softball when it became a regular
varsity sport at her school.
Derr was introduced to field hockey in a
junior high gym class and was encouraged
by her teacher to go out for the hockey
team. In gym class, though. Sherry said, "I
hated it!"
" I t , " of course, being field hockey. But
she still decided to go out for the team at
Donegal.
"So I played, and I still hated it," stated
Lock Haven's high scorer.
Her teacheptoach again persuaded Sherry
to go out her sophomore year. It was then
that she began to like field hockey. (Lucky
for LHU!)

Derr then set her sights on coming to college and playing field hockey " . . . or at
least I'd try." She said that in high school
people would talk about her basketball
play, not her hockey.
After talking with Taylor a couple of
times and deciding she seemed like a nice
person and that the hockey team was good.
Sherry decided to come to Lock Haven.
" N o one really ever talked me into going
to college; that's what I wanted to do.
Because 1 wanted to teach," commented
the Maytown native.
Derr will get a chance to teach next
semester as she will spend half the spring in
Lancaster student teaching and the second
half back in the Lock Haven area student
teaching.
Sherry is a physical education major and
hopes to teacTi and coach around her
hometown. Hockey and basketball at the
high school level are the two sports she
would like to coach.
Why the high school level? "Little kids
get on my nerves," said the smiling future
teacher.
Students that Sherry will teach in the
future will never get a taste of one sport.
She explained, "1 hate gymnastics, and I
won't teach it!"
Besides her semi-negative view of gymnastics, Derr has kept a positive attitude in
hockey which has helped her to become an
all-around player.
Coach Taylor commented, "Sherry went
from basically just a scorer to a more complete player both offensively and defensively."
A-h-h, but it's on offense where Sherry
Derr is ever so beautiful to watch.
In her career at LHU, she has scored a
goal in every game she has ever played in.
To be exact— 74 goals in 74 games. Derr has
played in every Bald Eagle field hockey
game in her four years here except one,
which was way back in her freshman
season.
Every game Coach Taylor's team won
this season, except for the C.W. Post
match. Sherry scored in. And last year,
Derr also held the high scoring honors with

23 goals and one assist.
Over the past four years that this
remarkable young woman has been playing
LHU hockey, she has helped build up a
63-9-3 record, helped win the AIAW Division II national championship in 1981,
helped win the NCAA Division II title in
1982, and helped get the team to a second
place finish in the NCAA's in 1983.
Last year she was honored as a Coaches
Association All-American and was picked
for the All-Pennsylvania State Athletic
Conference team.
Sherry feels that she and the team accomplished just about all she wanted them
to, but wishes that the Lady Eagles had
made it to the playoffs this year. LHU
finished 14th overall in the NCAA rankings.
" I ' m happy with the season we had; even
though we didn't get as far as I would have
liked to, but that's life," declared Derr.
She wishes that she had a few more years
to play hockey at Lock Haven and said:
"Because I'm not into studying, I'm not
going to miss class and all that—just hockey
and all the people."
Sherry added, "I'll go home and play,
but it's not going to be the same as up
here."
Derr will be playing for a local club team
at home. It's and informal kind of team
made up of mostly Donegal High graduates
who play a regular season schedule with
other club teams in the area.
Sherry Derr is modest about her scoring
accomplishments at Lock Haven. She said,
" A lot of times Ginny (Neiss) would hit
them so hard that I wouldn't have time to
get out of the way and she'd just hit my
stick."
What will the team do without someone
to get their stick in the way of the ball to
knock in shots?
Sherry feels that in the only game the
team won in which she didn't score, C.W.
Post, her teammmates maybe realized she
would soon be leaving and picked up the
scoring. In that late season match, juniors
Ginny Neiss and Wendy Heiges each had
two goals.

Sherry Derr
This great, unselfish field hockey player
is sure to be a success especially in Chris's
eyes. He is the lucky guy who will marry
Sherry Derr on June 9, 1985.
Does she want to have kids right away?
"No way," is the emphatic reply. But
someday, "I'm going to a have a whole
hockey team of them." (One can just hear
the cries of joy coming from coach Sharon
Taylor's office!)
Sherry summed up her future: "I just
want to teach and make a lot of money, so I
can retire."
From the team, Coach Taylor, and the
LHU campus. Sherry Derr, "We'll miss
you!" (And "Thanks" for parking in the
no parking zone to talk!)

SUNY-Buffalo provides
opposition for final game

Scott Gantz-senior plays last game

By Dave Walters
After a long season of heartbreaking
losses, the Bald Eagle coaches and players
are optimistic about tomorrow's game
against S.U.N.Y. Buffalo.
Buffalo will be the Bald Eagle gridders
last opponent of the 1984 season. LHU is
now 1-8 overall and finished their Western
Division season 1-5.
The LHU seniors on the squad will no
longer be playing under coach Jack Fisher
after this Saturday.
Senior Scott Gantz, the right end of the
Bald Eagle defense line, is third on the
defense in tackles with 60 and 2 sacks for
minus 15 yards. Gantz also leads the team
in fumble recoveries with three. " I enjoyed
playing here a lot. It has been good for me.
It has gone so fast and it's been enjoyable,"
Gantz said.
Gantz commmended the coaching staff.
"1 think coach Fisher and the rest of the
coaching staff has put a lot into the program this season and tried to do the best for
the team.".

Gantz reflected on his collegiate football
career. Gantz said, "It's hard to believe it's
over. I especially enjoyed this year. The
guys on this team look out for each other.
They are like a big family."
Chris Kustanbauter, another senior, was
injured earlier this season. Kustanbauter
played middle guard and was named to the
All Pennsylvania Conference Western Division first team last year.
Alan Urich who was injured all season
will also end his career after tomorrows
game.
The Bald Eagles will have their hands full
with Buffalo. Freshman Bob Kessler will be
taking over for the injured quarterback Pat
Cahill. Kessler said, " I ' m sorry Pat got
hurt, but I'm prepared to go in and help us
beat Buffalo. It's going to be a real complicated game and I'm just worried about
making the right call. This gives me a
chance to show my talent. It will give me a
chance to show the coaches what I can d o . "
Kick off is scheduled for 2 p.m. at
Hubert Jack Stadium tomorrow.

GOOD LUCK!

J.V. field hockey wins tournament
By Christa Landas
Juniata College was the site of-the Susquehanna Field Hockey Association's tournament this past weekend where the Lady
Eagle J.V. team competed and copped the
first place honors.
The tournament was held for club and
college field hockey teams.
Lock Haven downed Lycoming in their
first match, 3-0. In the next two games, the
Eagles played to ties which gave them the
second place spot in t he pool standings.
Teams competing were broken into two
separate pools.
The Haven women were faced with ijlaying the number one team in the other pool,
Mansfield University, in the semifinal.
They responded to the challange and beat
Mansfield, 4-0.
Wyoming won its semifinal and again
faced LHU who they had tied earlier.
At tha end of regulation play, the score
was knotted, 1-1. In flick-offs, the Bald
Eagles scored and, thus, took the team
championship.
Six Lock Haven players, because of their
strong showing, were chosen to go on to the
Mideast Regional Tournament which will
be held tomorrow and Sunday at East
Lebanon County High School.
Named to the first team were Doobie
Caprio and Carolyn Sprock; to the second
team were Sherry Groff and Sue Brubaker,
and to the third team were Sue Cornish and
Diane Lokey.

Bald Eagle Booters

If any of the players are selected at the
Mideast tournament and can afford it, they
could go on to the National Field Hockey
Festival in California. This festival takes
place over Thanksgiving break. Last year
three LHU players represented our school
at these championships.
Coach Rose Ann Neff commented, " I
was very pleased with the team getting the
championship. They had a great mental attitude and just kept coming back and coming back until they won the thing."
