From champions to parking lots

Field hockey loses to Levee

Fall tuition
increases
possible

by Jennifer Baer
Eagle Eye News Reporter

Eagle Eye News Editor

More controversy is developing at LHU, as the field
hockey field is presently being replaced by a parking lot.
According to Dr. Dean Phelps, the vice-president of
administrative affairs, the decision to convert the field
into a parking lot was due to the Parsons Union Building
expansion and the loss of parking to the dike-levee project.
Because of the expansion of the PUB, the City Code
requires that more parking space be made available in
that area.
Phelps said that only 80 of the 230 spaces in the commuter parking lot will be lost during the spring semester,
but in May all 230 spaces will be lost.
According to Phelps, a new field will not be built.
Several possibilities for the u,se of another field.are being looked at, with the help of the field hockey coach,
Sharon Taylor, said Phelps.
Money may be put into making improvements to the
intramural field, said Phelps. According to Phelps, these
improvements would include draining the field, building
stands into the cliff, and adding parking between Zimmerli and the field.

Second sexual assault reported
by Kenneth Newquist
Eagle Eye News Editor

Law Enforcement is adjusting its patrols to insure that the lights stay on
around c a m p u s (photo by Liza Vasicek).

A student was sexually assaulted off-campus
just before the end of the 1992 fall semester.
The woman was found wandering the campus
last December, according to Richard Hepner,
director of law enforcement and safety.
The case was originally handled by Law Enforcement but was transferred to the state police when the jurisdicition of the crime was in
question, Hepner explained The case is now
being handled by Lock Haven City Police. Additional information is currently unavailable.
At the same time, the investigation into an assualt which occurred in one of the residence
halls last semester is continuing. Law Enforcement had questioned one suspect, but Hepner
explained, "it just didn't pan out."
Hepner said the assailant is described as being an older, local person. The case, which inspired the new residence hall .security policies,
remains open.
Both Law Enforcement and administration
are starting new programs fo increase campus
safety. Hepner explained that there are no
plans for any additional lighting on campus,
which was one of the complaints at last year's
student protest.
Law Enforcement will be changing some of

its patrols to include a circuit of the campus to
insure that the lights that do exist are working.
Also the Rape Task Force, in cooperation
with Law Enforcement, is attempting to create
an escort .service on campus. Hepner explained
the club is currently consulting a lawyer to discuss any possible liability problems.
If enacted, the escort service will consist of a
number of escorts with radios and a central dispatcher. Hepner stressed that the point of the
service was to make students feel safer on campus, and not "to send out bad vibes."
Dr. Joeseph Marron, dean of students, said
the administration had consulted a security expert about a possible electronic card security
system.
Currently the administration isdetermining whether or not the card system
will be the most effective program for the money.
Other changes in residence hall policy include guest passes for non-LHU students who
stay overnight. The colored dot system for
identifying a student's residence hall has been
replaced by stickers that state the hall's name.
Marron specifically stated that the doors to
the residence halls will open at 8 a.m. on the
weekends.
There will be a presidential forum for students to field their opinions, objections and
thoughts about the school on Feb. 22 at 7 p.m.
in the PUB Meeting Room #2.

If you thought it was the end
of tuition increases, think again,
because It could be just the beginning.
Although a decision will not
be made until July 1 or later.
Dr. Dean Phelps, vice president
of finance and administration,
said there is a possibility of an
increase in both in-state and
out-of-state tuition.
Phelps said that he would not
be surprised to see an increase
either equal to or more than this
year's tuition increase.
The state is moving toward a
full-cost situation for nonresidents and a 50/50 situation
for residents, Phelps said.
The vice-president feels that
the state should view education
as a solution because it is helping to build the state.
Also with an increase in tuition comes an increase in the
need for financial aid, Phelps
said.
In reference to this. Dr. Mary
Pursell, vice president of academic affairs, feels this situation is improving with funds going directly to the school and on
to the student.
In view of the whole situation, Phelps said, "1 am disappointed to see policies shifting much more burden of
paying for schooling on students."

cut Lock Haven University's AIDS testing
clinic, according to Nancy Panko, R.N.
The clinic, which had been held twice a
semester, is now located in Williamsport.
Panko explained that to make an appointment for testing at Williamsport, those interested should call the Department of
Health at 1-717-327-3440. Panko stressed
that the staff is friendly and all results are
confidential.
Panko said that the funding had been
cut so that new clinics could be opened in
areas that are perceived to be the most
threatened, such as sexually transmitted
disease and TB clinics.

Native American
lectures on culture
A Native American from the Eastern
Delaware Nation will be on campus on
Jan. 25 at 7 p.m. in the Multi-purpose
Room to lecture on several aspects of the
Native American culture.

Two other possibilities that are being
looked at are using the practice football
field and finding another field close by in
town, said Phelps.
Phelps, who gave his high regard for
Coach Taylor, stated that he did not know
of any other possibilities besides that of removing the field. "We're pretty well stuck
here between the river, the mountains, and
the city," Phelps said.
Stacy Heiserman, a member of the field
hockey team, feels that the decision to convert the field into a parking lot was a hasty
one that was made "to serve the moment."
Heiserman believes that along with a
new field may come less spectators. "It
was a good field to gather fans," she stated.

In the December 4, 1992 edition of the Eagle Eye AnneMarie Tenuto
was quoted as saying that there are many places on campus that are virtually dark due to a lack of lighting. The statement was actually made
by Ann-Marie Mazzeo. We apologize for the mix-up. The Staff.

The captain of the team, Stacey Schilling, said, "1 think it's really disappointing
that
they took away the field hockey
field and replaced it with a parking lot, but
at least the seniors were privileged enough
to win the last game of their careers on this
field, and it being the national championship made it extra special."
Negotiations are under way for purchasing the silk mill in order to make room

Phelps.
The project will take at least two years to

lUP restarts
condom program
After about a five-year absence, condoms are now accessible to students living in Indiana University of Pennsylvania's residence halls thanks to a
number of campus organizations, according to the director of the Office of
Housing and Residence Life (OHRL).
The Student Co-op, OHRL, Residence
Hall Association (RHA), Student Congress and the Pechan Health Center contributed to condoms being made available,
Betsy Joseph said.
In the past, condoms could be purchased in cigarette machines located in
the residence halls, according to Joseph.
After their removal approximately five
years ago, the only access to condoms on
campus was the Pechan Health Center,
she added.
A growing student interest caused the
RHA and the Student Congress Residence
Life Committee to approach Joseph and
the OHRL last year to offer assistance in
putting condom vending machines in residence hall bathrooms.
"Although the Health Center does sell
condoms at a nominal cost to students,
and since so many students live on campus, we felt that the residence halls would
be a location we should look at," Joseph
said.

Student leads
campus for a day
For four short hours last December, Indiana University of Pennsylvania student
Russell Kelly was president of his university.
The sophomore won the "President for a
Day" raffle held by lUP's National Broadcasting Society (NBS), which donates all
proceeds to the Pennsylvania Tourette
Syndrome Association. By winning the
raffle, Kelly got to switch places with lUP
President Lawrence Pettit.
While Pettit busily performed routine
student tasks such as attending class and
eating at the caf, Kelly attended a meeting, fielded phone calls and did other
things of a presidential nature.

Stevenson computers updated
By Ty R. States
Eagle Eye News Reporter

The updating of the Stevenson Library's
computer system continued this semester
as a new general circulation system was installed to increase efficiency.
The system will speed up the book checking in and out process and give workers
more time for other jobs. Caryn Carr, System Administrator and Head Reader Services Librarian, says, "It will provide less
confusion at the front desk and save time
writing reports."
The system uses a bar code which is being placed on validated student l.D.s. The
scanner reads the bar-code, which calls up
the student's personal information on to the
librarian's screen.
The librarian scans the corres[)onding bar
code on the book the student is checking
out, and the entry is recorded in the computer. The computer can then generate overdue notices and block anyone from taking
out material if they have something overdue.
The library staff is urging students to
have patience with the new system. Evening Supervisor Greg Gerasimek says, "It
seems to be a pain right now but it will be
smoother than last semester."
The new computer holds all of the in-

formation that had formally been in the card
catalogs. The computer must now be used to
search for books, a habit that will become
a necessity when the library loses the card
catalogs entirely.
A few other minor changes have been

made in addition to the computers. Microfilm and micro-fiche are now being stored
in the reserve room. There are two printers
for each machine as well as another photocopier.

SCC continues protest movement
by Amy Coles
Eagle Eye News Reporter
In order to continue what was started at
the student protest rally last semester, SCC
President Steve Madrak said that a letterwriting campaign started and open forums
will be held to deal with students' concerns.
According to Madrak, the letter-writing
campaign, which started this week, is aimed
at the "state legislators involved in setting
up the budgets in the State System of Higher Education." Madrak said that students
can sign letters, "add to them if they wish,"
then deposit them in boxes that are in each
of the residence halls. Due to costs, Madrak
said that only students on campus received
the letters.
According to Madrak, the letters will be
taken to Harrisburg, where he attends a

meeting of the Board of Student Governors
each month. All 14 State Schools are participating in the letter writing campaign,
said Madrak.
In addition to the letters, Madrak said that
the SCC decided to have open forums to allow students to discuss some of the issues
raised at the end of last semester. According to Madrak, the forums will be held
once a month or possibly every other week,
dep)ending on the response.
An open forum was held at the end of last
semester, with approximately 25 people in
attendance, said Madrak. The SCC is hoping to schedule a forum for the end of the
month.
According to Madrak, "We have to get
(student) momentum brought back up. It's
never going to reach the peak of the rally.
That's something hard to hit."
Aside from the letter writing campaign

and open forum, the SCC also has other
events planned for the semester. First, SCC
elections will be held next week, from January 25 to 27. The first SCC meeting will
be held on January 28 at 6:30 p.m. in Meeting Room 2 of the PUB.
Several cultural events sponsored by the
SCC are scheduled for this semester as well.
According to Jen Pawlo, the SCC Cultural
Affairs Chairperson, at least two other cultural events will be added to the calendar.
According to Steve Madrak, the SCC is
also "throwing around some concert ideas"
even though they usually only sponsor one
per year. "It's going to be tough to pull off
another concert, but we're going to try,"
said Madrak.
If a larger concert can't be arranged then a
smaller concert might be a possibility, said
Madrak.

College is much more than freedom
Welcome to 1993 and back to
school for the spring semester!
Many students dread the return to
school which is sometimes seen
as a return to the monotony of
classes and the stress of getting
good grades.
Other students enjoy the social
aspects of returning to college,
such as getting together with
friends and going to parties. Few
students, however, tend to look at
college from a broader perspective, and, often times, the full
potential of the college experience
is overlooked.
College can be described as a
transitional stage in a person's
life. Stereotypically, this transition consists of breaking away
from the confines of family life to
experience the freedom of life
without rules or constrictions,
with the ultimate goal of emerging from this sovereign world as
an independant and self-sufficient
entity.
Although this belief represents
a very important objective where
college is concerned, the potential
benefits of the college experience
are far greater.
The opportunity for cultural expansion is an aspect of college
that is, unfortunately, often taken
for granted by college students,
but it is an aspect that holds great
value.
Culture, in the form of art, as
well as being a highly respected

element of society, is nothing less
than an educational opportunity.
Art forms, such as theatre, music,
dance, literature,
sculpture ...,
provide society with a vision of its
past, present and future.
They offer diverse perspectives
on life and all aspects of life - the
universe and all its elements. In
essance, the ultimate gifts of culture are a deeper understanding,
an expanded mind and, unquestionably, knowledge.
Unfortunately, this type of culture is often unattainable to the average American citizen. For example, most cultural events, such
as art exhibitions, theatrical performances
and musical
performances, take place primarily in
larger cities and are, many times,
too costly or too far away from
home for the average citizen to attend.
Local or "small town" cultural
events, such as plays and concerts,
can also be costly. "Even the price
of a current movie can be considered uneconomical.
As a consequence, many people
do not have the opportunity to be
exposed to the benefits of such
culture. College students, however, do not face this problem.
The college experience includes
a broad array of cultural opportunities including chances to
join, create, or observe various
cultural events. This University
offers a range of experiences from
classroom work to public displays
and performances by students, as
well as professional performances
for students to enjoy.
Various classes in the areas of
art, music, theatre and even dance
are available to interested students. There are also many clubs
and organizations in music, such
as the Marching Band, Jazz/Rock

Ensemble, Choir and Gospel Choir for student, as well as public exthat are available for students to amination.

through the new experience and,
most likely, enjoy the break from
school work.
The activities and opportunities
mentioned represent only a few of
those offered at the University and
were mentioned with the intention
of sparking some student interest
in University culture.
For most students college is the
only time of life in which so many
cultural opf)ortunities will be,
practilly, handed to them.
College represents a place in
peoples lives set aside for expansion - a time for diversity, change
and growth.
College represents freedom, but
its ultimate goal is education. It
can only be detrimental when any
aspect of that goal is neglected or
forgotten when overshadowed by
a stereotypical belief.
The college experience is not
only about classes and grades. It
is not only about parties and social
life. The college experience is
about knowledge, and to this, culture has a great deal to contribute.

Celebrating birth of a leader
by Sue Heintzelman
Eagle Eye Features Editor
"Early morning, April 4,
A shot rings out in the Memphis sky
Free at last, Hey that's what you 'd like,
They could not take your pride.
In the name of love.
One more in the name of love..."
- "Pride"
byU2
The group U2 belted out these words in
1984 to commemorate the death of Martin
Luther King, Jr. as part of a song that honored heroes.
Lock Haven University students sang their
own songs of praise and said words of honor
on January 18 to celebrate King's birthday.
Led by Dr. Robert Lynch, director of Affirmative Action, "A Celebration: The
Dream Then and Now" featured the LHU
Gospel Choir, student speakers, and guest
speaker Dr. Roosevelt Green.
A professor of sociology at LHU, Green
explained the reasons behind the civil rights
marches and the consequences of the actions. Then he explored "where we go from
here."
Giving a brief history of Africans before
the slave trade. Green shared his own exfieriences as an African American male in a
segregated society.
"I had to drink water out of white and colored fountains, and I had to sit in the back of
the bus," Green said, adding examples of being haunted by policemen and fearing death
when he visited Mississippi.
But King had a profound effect on this by
leading the Civil Rights movement and dying for mankind. "This man was so committed to his people and all people that he
risked his life," Green told an audience of
over 85 students and faculty.

Some still are suspicious about Dr.
Martin Luther King, Jr.'s death.

Dr. Roosevelt Green was the keynote speaker of the Martin Luther King, Jr.
Celebration (photo by Jen Zoebel).
Reminiscing back to a special day in Augusta, Ga., Green told of the day he shook
hands with King. "It was like being in the
presence of a god, but he was so approachable," Green said.
The professor went on to tell the audience
that everyone must "strive for a multicultural perspective," respecting all diversity in people.
Also speaking about respecting each other
was student speaker Jeanine Ross. As the
public relations director of the Black Student Union, Ross related her job to King's
position in life. "Dr. King was the public relations director of mankind," Ross said, adding that he used different channels to relate
the message of the minorities to the majority.
King relayed his message by organizing
African Americans in nonviolent tactics,
such as the Montgomery bus boycott and
several civil rights marches.
"The minority race has gone from the
back of the bus to a seat in the Senate,"
Ross said. "And that's a very long ride."
Since King's death on April 4, 1968, numerous people have expressed their views
about the Nobel Peace Prize winner, including Lock Haven University student Erika Wright. A member of the Delta Sigma
Theta Sorority, Wright gave a presentation
during the celebration.
Wright encouraged African Americans to
channel their energies into academics and
"never .settle for mediocrity" because, according to Wright, "Dr. King stressed education and economics as a path to
progress."
King was an educated man who received
his bachelor's degree of sociology from
Morehouse College and his doctorate from
Boston University.
The Baptist minister was the president of
the Southern Christian Leadership Conference and traveled the country to speak about
civil rights.
The first black man to be honored as Time
magazine Man of the Year, King is quoted
often, especially from his "1 Have a Dream"
speech. All of the speakers at the celebration quoted something different from King,

including President Craig Dean Willis, who
spoke some of his favorite quotes.
In 1968, King flew to Memphis to help

The Chinese people
will be dancing in the
streets and setting off
fireworks to celebrate
Chinese New Year
and ring in "the year
of the Rooster."
The Rooster is one
of the 12 animals of
the Chinese Zodiac,
an integral part of the
Chinese
calendar.
The Chinese calendar
is based on the rotation of the moon, rather than the sun, as the
Julian calendar is.
Chinese astrological
signs are based on the
concept of years rather than months as
Greek signs are.
Although the origin
of the Chinese zodiac
cannot be pinpointed
in history, there is a
legend that Buddha invited all the animals
in creation to celebrate with him on the
New Year. He promised to give those at-

tending a gift. Only 12 animals came, so
Buddha assigned each animal a year.
The basic signs of the Chine.se Zodiac are
the rat, the ox, the tiger, the rabbit, the dragon, the snake, the horse, the sheep, the monkey, the cock, the dog, and the boar. In
some countries the signs vary slightly. For
example, in Thailand, the cow is a sign
rather than the ox, and in Mongolia the Panther is substituted for the Tiger.
The more religious view of the Chinese
Zodiac is the idea that during night and day
one of the animals is continually preaching
and converting ali beings of that sign to
Buddhism, while the other animals quietly
do good deeds.
The cycle begins with the rat, who converts all the rats on the first day. The other
11 animals follow suit, and on the 13th day,
the cycle begins again with the rat.
As with Greek astrology, Chinese astrology was used to advise dynasty rulers in affairs of their realms. Astrologers had to
track the heavens, including the planets, the
wind, the clouds, the sun, and all natural
phenomena.
During one dynasty, two astrologers were
beheaded because they did not predict and
prevent an eclipse. An eclipse, according to
the Chinese, symbolized a new ruler must
be instated to maintain the balance between
heaven and earth.
The publication of the calendar was the
responsibility of the government. Originally each month was 60 days long but in order to coincide the seasonal duties with the
movement of the earth and moon, the
months changed to alternate groupings of

In order to keep
the calendar in sync

movement, a 13th
month was added
every three years.
The government
also influenced the
daily lives of the
Chinese with astrology through the imperial
almanac.
This work gave
weather forecasts,
recipes, and the predictions for each
sign for the coming
year. The almanac
advised how people
should act and conduct their lives for
the year, including
cautioning persons
of certain signs not
to marry.
Although Chinese
astrology declined
after the Republic
of
China
was
named, the fascination of astrology is
still there, apparent
on the placemats of
Chinese restaurants.

6:15 p.m. in Sloan Fine Arts Center, Room
321, will be showing three Hamlet movies.
The 1948 film, starring Sir Laurence
Olivier, the 1964 movie, starring Nicol
Williamson, and the 1990 version starring
Mel Gibson will be the featured attractions.
Students attending the program should
dress comfortably and can bring a sleeping
bag and pillow to the showing, the speech
and theatre department said.
Saturday night the group will reconvene
at 7 p.m. to compare and contrasf different
areas of the three movies. Led by six faculty members from the English, history,
and theatre departments, the discussion
will center around politics, feministic portrayals, and the universality of the play as
related to today.
The purpose of the activity, entitled a
"Connective Learning Event," is to show
students how different disciplines interact
with one another.

Most people get tired of eating at one
place no matter how much they may like
the food. If students are getting tired of
cafeteria food they have another option,
besides McDonald's. They can stop by the
Eagle Wing Snack Bar.
The Eagle Wing Snack Bar, located on
the upper level of the PUB, has a lot to offer students, said Connie Hunter, manager
of the Eagle Wing Snack Bar. "We want
students to know we're here."
The Snack Bar is currently running an
Abbott and Costello game called "Who's
On First?," which offers the customer an
oppurtunity to win items from the Snack
Bar.
Hunter said that at the Snack Bar they try
to keep prices lower because they can not
offer the option of flex dollars. Because
they are a small business, they run on a
cash basis only and the flex dollars that
Bentley offer does hurt them, she said.
Everything is made fresh at the Snack
Bar and most people are willing to wait.
Hunter said.
The Snack Bar will also cater for any organization. Hunter said.
At the Snack Bar they try to create a
more personal atmosphere. Hunter said.
"If students have problems they know
they can always come talk to me."
The Snack Bar's most frequent customers are commuter students. Hunter said.
"We're really the only place they have to
go."
The Snack Bar is open Monday through
Friday from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., although
Hunter said she would like to have student
input on whether they would like the
Snack Bar to stay open later. To do so,
students may stop by or call the Snack Bar.
If students have any suggestions on the
types of food that they would like to see
offered at the Snack Bar they can stop by
the office, located across the hall from the
Snack Bar, Hunter said.

Hmn professor publishes science fiction W
by Sue Heintzelman
Eagle Eye Features Editor
A book by a Lock Haven University professor of foreign language has been published as a volume in a science fiction series,
entitled Contributions to the Study of Science Fiction and Fantasy.
Dr. Allienne Becker highlighted the Lost
Worlds Romance, a line of fiction which
eventually developed into science fiction.
Becker's book, entitled The Lost Worlds Romance: From Dawn to Dusk, traces this type
of fantasy writing from its beginnings in the
1820s through its decline in the middle of
the 20th Century.
"The book surveys the Lost Worlds Romance for its beginnings as it evolved from
travel literature and Utopian fiction to its
eclipse when there weren't any more unexplored corners of the earth and it took to
the stars, evolving into modern science fiction," according to Becker.
Lost Worlds Romance usually doc-

umented the voyage of an explorer, typically a scientist, to a remote place on earth
where he found a fantastic lost world, according to Becker. These books permitted
more eroticism than other mainline literary
forms of the time. Darwin, Freud, and Marx
are shown to have influenced the authors of
these works, Becker said.
"Interestingly, these romances reflect the
developing natural and social sciences of the
time in which they were written," she said.
"The themes of evolution, teleportation, human longevity, euthanasia, other dimensions, reincarnation, uses of radium, Utopian
societies, among many others, play a prominent part in the discussion of these works."
The forward for Becker's book was written by the eminent sociologist Andrew M.
Greeley. A professor at the University of
Chicago, Greeley has written approximately
30 fiction works and over 70 nonfiction
works.
Becker teaches a liberal arts seminar on
the fantastic at the University. Her book is
available through the LHU Bookstore.

How embarrassing can life be ?
Brad Mendeniiall
The inspiration for today's romp into the
outrageously mundane occurred several
months ago right before Thanksgiving
break. 1 was typing a Sociology paper that
should have been done the day before. After finishing the paper, I quickly ran out of
the library — that was my mistake. As most
of you know (unless your major happens to
be drinking until your liver turns plaid),
there is a turnstile at the exit of the library.
So great was my hurry to leave the building
that 1 accidentally pushed the turnstile before I was all the way through. Due to this
action, a turnstile 'arm' struck me between
the legs with enough force to hurt a whole
hell ofa lot.
To make matters worse (if you can actually believe they get any worse than that),
there was a rather attractive young lady behind me who was trying hard not to laugh
until tears would roll down her face. I knew
what I had to do. 1 held back my scream of
pain and anguish and made a glib little
wisecrack. I'm not really sure what the
wisecrack was because all I remember after
that was quietly crying on the trip back
home.
All of this got me thinking two things.
First, I should wear a protective cup whenever I go to the library. Second, everybody
at some point of their scholastic career has
embarrassed themselves in front of fellow
students. Now I'm not talking about everyday stuff like going to the wrong room or
your stomach growling really loud during

history class. I mean stuff like going to a
fraternity party and getting so plastered that
you throw up on the frat's president.
I have heard millions of such stories. My
favorite being one in which my friend (let's
call him "Bob") was at a party and got
'friendly' with a young lady who also attended the festivities. Little did Bob know

"The floor of the
men's bathroom
in Smith Hall is
the last place you
want to be on
your hands and
knees while wearing only a towel."

that his friendliness was being video taped
by a couple of his buddies (Rob Lowe
would be proud). The next day, everyone in
Bob's school had seen the video.
Now the whole point of this column is,
of course, to fill up empty space in the Eagle Eye. Ha, ha! Just kidding. The reason
is to show everyone out there who thinks
they are the only one to have made social
blunders that others have, too, and it just

goes to show that no one is perfect (God,
that was corny). And to destroy the myth
that 1 am socially infallible, 1 shall tell of an
incident that happened a short time ago.
Over Christmas break, 1 got my first pair
of contact lenses. 1 was thrilled because I
had always wanted an excuse to poke myself in the eyes for five minutes at a time.
Two days,after retuning to school, 1 was trying to put my contacts in after taking a
shower. After inserting them, 1 began to
walk away. Suddenly the world became
very blurry and 1 quickly deduced that one
of my contacts had fallen out. 1 got on my
hands and knees and started searching for
the missing eyewear.
Let me tell you something. The floor of
the men's bathroom in Smith Hall is the last
place you want to be on your hands and
knees while wearing only a towel. For one
thing, you just don't know what you are going to find. Also, the last sight other guys
want to see when going to take a shower is
some half-naked schmuck who obviously
thinks he's a cocker spaniel on the floor.
It's just a little unnerving.
The whole thing was a disaster. 1 had to
explain myself to a dozen different people, I
felt so disgusting after looking on the floor
that I ended up taking another shower, and,
to top it all off, 1 didn't find the contact. I
have a replacement coming in the mail, but
until then, I shall be looking at the world
with one clear eye and one blurry eye.
Well, folks, see ya soon. Oh, in case
you're wondering why I don't just wear my
old glasses until my contact comes, the story behind that involves a fraternity, a room
mix-up, and a lot of embarrassment.

Canadian rock star puts out third album
Jeff Healy Band
How many rock stars can you name that
are Canadian? Time's up! Well there are
Bryan Adams, Neil Young and you can't
forget Rush. Did you know that the blind
blues guitarist extraordinare, Jeff Healy , is
Canadian? Well that's enough trivia for today. The Jeff Healy Band recently released
their third album called Feel This and, as a
whole, it's pretty good.
The CD starts out rockin' with a song
called "Cruel Little Number." This song has
a heavy ZZ Top feel to it. Jeff Healy's vocal style is very much comparable to ZZ
Top's Billy Gibbons. Not that Healy is trying purposely to sound like him, it's just
that the influence is heard on the album.
Feel This also has a couple of ballads on
it (remember his first hit, "Angel Eyes") the
best one being "Leave the Light On" and
another good one, originally written by
Tom Petty, called "Lost In Your Eyes."
As for the guitar work on the album, it's
very good. Healy's solos are very clean.
He could be one of the best rock 'n' roll
blues guitarists around today, especially for

But the absolute best song

Jeff Healy Band has a Rap
song? Bluesy rock 'n' roll
meets rap on this one and it is
done extremely well. Healy
makes the guitar scream on
the solo.
And if that isn't enough
for you, some songs on this
CD feature Paul Schaffer,

Welcome back. Once again this semester,
my job will be to bring you the best in Hard
Rock music released during the semester. 1
always try to be diverse in my picks
throughout the semester, and I figured I'd
start out the semester as far on the extreme
as I've ever gone.
Shrapnel Records has always been the
breeding grounds for some of the world's
best hard rock guitarists. Shrapnel launched
the careers of successful musicians such as
Mr. Big's Paul Gilbert, Megadeth's Marty
Friedman, and Poison's newest member,
Richie Kotzen, as well as many others.
With Shrapnel's success in the 80s, the
90s seem to be just as promising. And the
most impressive of the 90s bunch so far is
Germany's Bernd SteidI with the release of
his debut album Psycho Acoustic Overture.
Unlike most of the guitarists on Shrapnel,
Steidl's album is far from a metal album.
The guitar work is all acoustic and it is basically a classical album. Steidl's musical
ability was recognized early in his life—at
the age of five tie had learned to play the
zither, a 48-stringed instrument! At the age
of nine he shifted to the guitar, and studied
classical styles as well as 70s progressive
rock bands like Pink Floyd and Jethro Tull.
As the album begins, SteidI wastes no
time displaying his talents on "Irrlichter." I
was extremely shocked when I heard this,
as it is probably the fastest acoustic guitar

playing I have ever heard. He uses the classical/rock combo well in songs like "Metamorphoses" and "Papillon." He plays dueling solos between him and a harp player on
"Jeux D'Eau." He even lets his bassist do a
solo on "Bine Kleine Bassmusik." Though
mostly an instrumental album, there are two
vocal songs, and to throw you off even
more, the vocals are performed by an opera
singer on "Death Of Ludwig 11" and "Walburgis Night."
In listening to this record, I feel you grow
to appreciate guitarists more. People don't
realize how much harder it is to play fast on
an acoustic guitar than it is on an electric
guitar. Electric guitars are amplified so
much, you can glide your hands easier than
with an acoustic guitar, and playing fast on
the acoustic guitar many times results in
notes not being heard if you're not careful
(or talented enough). Albums like this make
you wonder why people such as Yngwie
Malmsteen and David Chastain are not
household names and people like Slash and
C.C. DeVille are.
Most f)eople are very shocked to hear that
I like classical music. And if you are a fan
of classical music, don't stop from giving
this a listen just because I (the metal columnist) liked it. Also, to metal fans (or anyone in particular for that matter), check this
album out, especially if you are a fan of
classical metal guitarists such as Yngwie
Malmsteen. This album is on a smaller la-

Souls In S\)rup

Son It^elscfi

Hey Hey!!! I'm back much to the dismay of many people. I hope everybody's
vacation was as music infested as mine
was. Well, I'm done being polite, on to
serious business.
I'm really becoming sick of this retro70s thing that's been going on in this
country. The 70s Preservation Society is
trying to convince us how wonderful
those lost years were. Unfortunately, people are falling for their line of crap and we
now find Erasure doing an album of Abba
covers and the Village People being
played on dance floors across the nation.
AAAARRRGH!!!
If you insist on gazing into the past with
teary eyes of remembrance, at least look
at the good stuff. This is exactly what
Nocturnal Playground has done on their
debut release. Souls in Syrup, and it is a
much needed reminder.
Nocturnal Playground is coming from
the same school of thought that spawned
the CBGB's and the rest of the early punk
scene. If you're a fan of X, then these
folks are going to sound hauntingly familiar. Medium-sized songs with rapidfire drums, fuzzed-up guitar noise and a
male background singer who sticks his
two-cents in every minute or so.
Melinda Harrison, the lead vocalist,
sounds like she could have come from the
same womb as Exene Cervenka. Their
angry, yet erotic voices are so similar that
it is difficult to tell them apart. Their tempos are even on keel with each other.
The band's entire groove is infectious.
An upbeat tempo and moody vocals
sound wonderful when mixed with the
correct dosage of purposely shoddy production work. Music for the fun of it.
Isn't that what the punk revolution was all
about?
This album sounds like it could have
been produced during the 70s when "alternative" music was innocently aggressive and the vacuum tube was king.
If you listen close, you can just about hear
those glass monstrosities humming in the
background.
Nocturnal Playground brings the winds
of nostalgia that should be heeded instead
of that silly disco thing. The 70s were silly times, but there were a few musical
high points, and these folks remember
them well.
bel, therefore it may be harder to find. If so,
and you're interested in hearing this musical prodigy, give us a call at Toxic Radio
(90.3 FM in case you don't know) and
make a request.
Next Week: Speaking of musical prodigies, one of the most underrated guitarists
ever has released a "best o f compilation,
and 1 will probably get to that next week.

Hockey team pulls
together after tragic
loss of Mike Smith
By Robert Schelhorn
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter
At the end of last semester the LHU hockey team was playing good hockey. They finally gelled as a team. Then a great tragedy
fell upon them and all others who knew
Mike Smith, #11.
Mike died in a tragic car accident over
the holidays. Mike was a colossal goal scorer and always gave 110% on and off the ice.
He was liked by everyone on the team and
his loss will be felt by all. Chuck Schweizer
(Offensive Captain) added, "The loss of
Mike is an enormous one for the hockey
team. He had the same impact on our team
as Jerome Brown did on the Philadelphia
Eagles. He was a great competitor, but
more importantly, we lost a great friend, and
no one will ever be able to replace that."
The LHU icers have dedicated the second
half of their season to Mike Smith and his
mother. The team will be wearing #11 on
their uniforms for the remainder of the year.

**I think the team was
in a state of disbelief,
we all kind of kept
waitng for Mike to
come out of the locker room and lead the
team to a couple of
quick goals."
-Mick Cvetnich

The LHU hockey team traveled to Penn
State early Saturday moming to face the
Sharks. Tliis was the first game for the team
in over a month. The score showed it as
Lock Haven lost 8-3. The Sharks attacked
early on and never trailed the rest of the
way. Scoring for the Haven were M. Cvetnich, C. Schweitzer, and B.J. Poster. Mick
Cvetnich stated, "I think the team was in a
state of disbelief, we all kind of kept waiting
for Mike to come out of the locker room and
lead the team to a couple of quick goals. He
never came out, and that is something that
we will have to deal with as a team."
Sunday night's eleven o'clock start against
the Raiders was a whole different story for
the Bald Eagles. Six minutes into the game
Schweitzer fed R. Schelhorn for the first
goal and after that there was no turning
back. LHU won 7-1. Other goal scorers
were Andrew Davis, Mick Cvetnich, Chuck
Schweitzer, B.J. Poster, and Brian Oakes
tallied two.
The Eagles played great team hockey and
had many chances to put it away. The difference came from the play of Oakes, who
replaced Smith on the second line, teaming
up with Poster and Davis.
"He has some giant shoes to fill, but he is
well on his way to becoming a good hockey
player. Brian was definitely the game's
MVP," said defensive captain Bill Reineer.
The Eagles continue their season next weekend with games at the Penn State Ice Pavilion. Your support is greatly appreciated.

Shon Crosby nets 1,000th career point..,

Bald Eagles scalp Indians for third straight victory
by Dan Murray
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter
The start of the 1993 spring semester
means one thing in the world of Lock Haven
athletics. Bald Eagle hoops is in full swing.
If you walked out of Thomas FieldHouse
this past Wednesday night with the same
feeling of jubilation that I did then you
know exactly what I'm talking about.
The Bald Eagles emerged one point
winners over long time nemesis lUP, 72-71,
ina rollercoaster ride of a ball game. This
game capped a tremendous week for the Eagles in which they won three straight games
after a disheartening 79-64 loss to rival
Bloomsburg.
After the Bloom game the Eagles stood
at just 5-5, going 2-1 over the semester
break. A slow start could have been predicted considering the arrival of 6-5,Jr. Harold Tyson and 6-3, Jr. Victor Watkins who
needed time to fit into the new system.
Brad Bell also returned after sitting out the
first nine games. Bell gives the Eagles
much needed depth at the point guard position considering the only two walk-ons left
the team.
With just 10 players, the Eagles have
only five players on the bench so every
body will have to contribute.
Ten games seemed to be a good trial run
and beginning with Mansfield this past Saturday, it was time for the Eagles to kick the
season into high gear.
The Eagles disposed of Mansfield,79-66
and you could tell that confidence was gaining by the minute. Soph, point-guard Chris
Franklin shared team leading scoring honors
with Jr. center Shon Crosby. Franklin add-

ed 13 assists and four steals to add to his
conference lead in both categories.
Crosby, who leads the team in scoring
and rebounding added five boards to his 16
points and is continuing to prove his dominance over opponents. Sr. Tim Smith had
11 points to add to his game high 10 rebounds. Smith also contributed two treys.
Brad Bell, Victor Watkins, and Harold
"Air" Tyson had 14, 12, and 10 points respectively.
Up next for the Eagles was another
PSAC-East rival in the likes of Kutztown.
The Haven established control early and
held a 40-28 lead at the half. The Eagles
extended their lead to 18 points at the start
of the second half before Kutztown started
to rally.
The Eagles obviously needed something to inspire them and they got it when
Crosby scored the 1,000th point of his collegiate career on a driving layup. This was
the spark that not only the players needed
but the fans as well.
Crosby and Watkins helped to stave
off Kutztown's furious rally and in the end
the Eagles managed to escape with a 72-71
victory. Crosby again came up big with a
game high 30 points and 10-14 shooting
from the field.
The Haven as a team shot an impressive 55 percent from the floor while
holding Kutztown to just 45 percent. With
the victory the Eagles continued their climb
upwards as they improved their record to 75 and now prepared for the all-important
PSAC-West opener against their bitter rival, the Indians of lUP.
The crowd of 1,000 strong was into it
from the outset realizing the importance of
this matchup, and the players did to as they

denied one another from gaining an early
advantage.
The Haven's biggest lead of the first
half was five at 10-5 on a layup by Tyson.
The lead see-sawed back and forth for much
of the half. The Eagles looked as if they
were to seize momentum when 7-0 Soph.
Todd Hawkins threw down a thunderous
dunk from the baseline to give the Haven a
27-26 with 6:30 left. The Eagles couldn't
capitalize as lUP continued to stay even.
The Eagles once again jumped out to a
three point lead but lUP reeled off an 11-0
run to close out the first half with a 44-36
lead. The Eagles knew they couldn't afford
to fall any farther behind if they had a
chance against the seasoned Indians.
The second half started out with the
same intensity of the first as the trash talking increased, and the fans became more
boisterous.
The Haven continually delved into the
lead, thanks in large part to Crosby who had
a game high 29 points and 11 rebounds, but
couldn't get any closer than four points until
about four minutes remained. Then the fun
started.
With 4:34 remaining, Franklin hit Crosby with one of his eight assists to cut the
lead to 66-64. lUP pushed the lead back out
to 71-66 with 1:14 left after Keith Greene
was forced to foul. lUP would not score
again.
Crosby was fouled with a minute to go
and converted one of two foul shots to draw
the Eagles within four at 71-67. The Eagles, needing a huge defensive play got it
from Greene as he stole the ball and quickly
pushed it up the court. The Eagles swung
the rock around until Chris Franklin was
found wide open at the top of the key.

Franklin set his shot and hit all net. 71-70
I UP with :44 left.
The Eagles called time to sfet up the
defense but they knew they had to foul.
Crosby quickly fouled Ben Williams with
:37 left on the clock. Williams missed the
front end and the Haven grabbed the board
with a chance to win it.
Coach Black refused to call time and
figured to catch lUP off-guard. His strategy worked perfectly as "Silk" Smith
drove the lane on a confused defense and
hit an open layup. 72-71 LHU :11 left.
Thomas FieldHouse sounded more
like the Louisiana Superdome as the
crowd went ecstatic. lUP had to call time
twice because of the noise before they
even inbounded the ball. After they finally did, Phil Krump missed a three with
two seconds left and the victory Was
sealed.
Our Eagles are now 8-5 and more importantly 1-0 in div. play.
This team, with a perfect blend ol
youngsters and veterans, is only going to
get better and it is scary to think of the
damage this team is going to cause before
the end of the season. Coach Dave Black
definitely has this team on overdrive and
there are no signs of slowing down.
With three straight wins, the Eagles
are now riding and insurmountable wave
of confidence heading into the heart oi
their schedule.
It seems fitting that Wednesday's victory occurred on Inauguration Day. The
triumph could signal the inauguration oi
LHU as the powerhouse of the PSACWest. Only time will tell but they definitely have the weapons to do so and the
perfect field general in Coach Black.

Lady Eagles win streak halted at six by lUP
by Kevin Kovac
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter
Their winning streak was at six games,
and their confidence was high. But no matter: the University women's basketball
team still took a major taste of defeat
Wednesday night in their Pennsylvania
State Athletic Conference opener against
Indiana University of Pa.
"We just weren't able to play a complete
game," said assistant coach Leah Magestro,
who watched lUP storm to a 78-63 victory
in Thomas Fieldhouse. "lUP converted
more than our kids and was more aggressive. That was the difference."
The Lady Eagles, whose record fell to 94 with the loss, were outrebounded 49-27
and shot only 33 percent from the field.
They also suffered numerous defensive
breakdowns, which contributed to lUP's
torrid 57 percent success rate from the
floor.
"[lUP] got a lot of easy lay-ups," said
Magestro.
At one point, however, the women appeared to be rising above their relatively
poor play enough to escape with a triumph.
They scored 10 unanswered points in a
three-minute span of the second half to
slice lUP's 53-39 lead to four with 11 minutes remaining in regulation.
The frantic run was punctuated by a fourpoint play by sophomore guard Steph Troy-

an; she sank a trey and was fouled. But the
Lady Eagles' excitement diminished as Indiana regained their composure and began
shredding the host's full-court press once
again.
"Our jump-and-run press was like a double-edged sword," said Magestro, describing how the women allowed so many
uncontested I UP shots. "We got a lot of
steals off it — lUP turned the ball over 34
times — but if we didn't get a steal, they
threw a long pass and got a lay-up. We
didn't force them into their halfcourt offense."
Magestro said the Indiana encounter
showed what the Lady Eagles must do in
order to win. "If we don't have the defense
to spark us, we're in trouble," she said.
"We need to get our points off the transition game because our halfcourt offense
isn't as strong. Holly Kozlowski is probably our only player who can create her
own shot at any time in the halfcourt."
On Wednesday, it was indeed Kozlowski who carried the team's halfcourt attack. She scored 20 points, one above her
season average, to lead the squad. But
easy baskets for the rest of the team weren't readily available, and no one else
stepped up in the halfcourt sets.
Magestro did not hide the fact that she
and head coach Frank Scarfo were not
pleased with their squad's performance.
"We had high expectations, so we're
definitely disappointed," she said. "This

conference is so tough this year that losing
a game at home could really come back to
haunt us. Plus all the kids know they were
good enough to win — after all, our only
two conference wins last year were against
lUP."
"Maybe this loss was our wakeup call,"
said Magestro. "We feel that we have
enough experience to finish in the top two
in the conference (a pre-season coach's
poll predicted a sixth-place LHU finish).
How the kids will respond mentally in the
next few games will be important."
Of course, Scarfo and Magestro will
count on Kozlowski to spark the Lady Ea-

gles in upcoming PSAC-West tilts. But
players like scrappy senior guard Carol
Holtz, junior playmaker 1 Baird, who set a
school record with seven three pointers
and 21 points in the first half of LHU's
rout of Bridgeport last Sunday, and junior
inside force Tunisia Jenkins will play major roles in any victory.
The Lady Eagles, who had previously
dropped games to Bloomsburg, Millersville and Bentley College, the secondranked Division II team in the country,
visit PSAC rival Edinboro tomorrow afternoon.

Boxing team gears up for 15th
Annual LHU Invitational
by Dusty Durand
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter
The nationally ranked Lock Haven University Boxing team returned to the boxing
stable in Zimmerli Gymnasium last week to
prepare for the big push toward the National
Championships.
This years team is the youngest in fifteen
years. For the first time in five years the Eagles do not return a National Champion in
their lineup. The team began its training by
going back to the basics and fundamentals
of boxing during the fall .semester. According to Dr. Cox, "After hundreds of
rounds of sparring and working out since
early September, the team is looking more
like a veteran club with every practice."
The team is led by Jimmy Torres, who
earned All-American status as a National
runner-up in 1991. Others returning in the
Open Division are Vince Zaleski, Troy
Schultz, and Dan Carr. Two promising
newcomers, Patrick Woody and Chad Miner, earned Open Division status during the
fall semester by competing at both Richmond,Va., and the U.S. Naval Academy.
'Freshman Patrick Woody was upset in a 2-1
split decision to Navy's experienced Kirk
Luftus in the 132 lb. weight division. In the
180 lb. weight class, Miner defeated Joe
Bayer of the Naval Academy by the referee's decision to stop the fight at 1:07 of the
first round. Both boxers are coming along
quickly and add promise to LHU boxing
well into the future.
This sea.sons returning novice boxers are
John Cox, 139, Josh Welty, 156, Dusty Du-

£I>i

rand, 147, and newcomer, Lincoln Wooten,
147, a transfer student from Penn. Tech. By
the end of the season, these boxers will be
added to the open lineup.
Home shows at various Eastern College
Boxing Association schools will be held
every weekend until the ECBA Championships at Penn State University in March.
Four or five boxers will be sent to Martinsburg, WVA, on February 6. The boxers
will be competing against Shippensburg,
Penn State, and newcomer Shephard State.
The Fifteenth Annual LHU Collegiate Invitational will be held in Thomas Field
House on February 20. Most of the teams
from the eastern region, in addition to the
University of Nevada-Reno, will be represented in the "Homeshow" as a preview for
the Eastern Championships.

The LHU matmen began a week of tough
wrestling Tuesday, by downing EWL and
PSAC rival Edinboro 17-16. The Bald Eagles are currently ranked # 20 in the nation,
and this win raised their season mark to 103.
The Haven boys were down early. At
118, senior Brian Slates was major decisioned 13-4, by the Fighting Scot's Lew
Roselli. Roselli, an All American, is also a
senior and is currently ranked #2 in the
country.
At 126, Shawn Husick got the Bald Eagles on the board with a 7-3 win over Matt
Whitman. Husick overcame an early takedown by Whitman, to pull-out the victory.
Another come from behind win by Mike
Herceg at 134 gave LHU a 6-3 lead. Herceg decisioned Thad MarceUi 7-5.
Shannyn Gillespie added to the lead, taking the score to 10-4, with a 16-6 major decision over Barry Anderson. Gillespie, who
improved his record to 15-2, had this to say
of the match, "It's always tough to go to
Edinboro. The bus ride takes a lot out of
us. I'm happy we came out with a win."
Edinboro's second All-American, Tom
Shiflet then narrowed the Eagles' lead to
10-7 with a tough 5-3 victory over Pete
Ventresca. At 158, the match was all knotted up at 10-11, as Edinboro's Tony Roby
upset the Bald Eagles' Scott Goodale 10-5.
Kemal Pegram's 15-7 major decision
gave the Bald Eagles a 14-10 lead, which
they would never relinquish.
The win
moved Pegram's season mark to 14-4.
In a match of 2 national qualifiers at 177,
Edinboro's Ken Bauer edged Ron Coffel by
a controversial 3-1 score. No take downs
were registered in the bout.
The two traded escapes, but Bauer received a point for riding time and a point
for unsportmanlike conduct to pull out the
win. That win cut LHU's lead to 14-13.
Dale Budd then came up with a key win
