Latin American ambassadors highlight festive weekend
By Kim Madgiak
The Fifth Annual International Festival
held here this past weekend consisted of a
Variety Show, two panel discussions with
visiting ambassadors and representatives
from Latin America, and dinner.
The highlights of the Festival were two
panel discussions on Saturday. The first
topic was "Latin America - On the Way to
Democracy." Associate professor NeLson
DeLevan of the history department here,
opened the session by introducing the panel
members and thanking the administration
and the International Association of
Students (I.S.A.) here for making the talk
possible. He then remarked on the students
attendance by saying, "It shows the U.S.
will do everything possible to help Latin
America, except learn about the countries
there."
Hernan Hurdato, Ambassador to the
Organization of American States (O.A.S.)
from Guatemala, simply stated that his
country was returning to a civilian
democratic government.
Political Affairs Officer Dr. Leonardo
Ruilova of the Embassy of Ecuador, mentioned that he felt democracy was a reality.
He added that democracy had to be worked
on since it is the sum of a large dimension,
and not merely a name. His government has
been democratic since 1980, but until that
time was run by dictatorships.
Dr. Fernando Zumbato, Costa Rica's
Ambassador to the U.S., arrived in Lock
Haven after watching Congress work in the
nation's capital this past week. He stated
that America has a true democracy, but
reminded everyone that diplomats and people shouldn't trust other diplomats too
much. Zumbato stated that, "After all,
Christopher Columbus was the first actual
diplomat. Columbus wasn't sure where he
was going, didn't know where he was once
he arrived, and used the government's
money to get there"
The Costa Rican government is the oldest
uninterrupted democracy in Latin America,
existing since 1948. The country, unlike
America, has been poor since its beginning,
but has the same values such as freedom of
the press and respect for human rights,
Zumbato added.
Professor Roland Visconti, Uruguay's
Representative to the O.A.S., commented,
"For almost 13 years my country, along
with Argentina and Chile, have been Latin
America's bad boys." This was because in
1967 a leftist group terrorized Uruguay, and
then a military junta ruled until 1984 when
free elections occurred. A democratic
government has been in the works in
Uruguay since then, Visconti added.
Professor Dane Bowen, of LHU's
History and Economics department, compared a diplomat to a lady, quoting, " T o a
diplomat, yes means maybe, maybe means
no, and no means he's no diplomat. When
a lady says no she means no, maybe means
probably not, and yes means she's no
lady." He concluded by pointing out that a
democracy is not easy to establish, and a
strong military is usually required. Latin
America, however, spends the smallest
amount of money of the seven continents
on its military budget.
The panel group reconvened in the afternoon to discuss, "Internal American
S y s t e m s . " Senior Pablo Maurvicio
Alvergue, El Salvador's Ambassador to the
U.S., spoke at this session, along with the
morning's panel. He summed up the
panel's views on the new topic by stating,
"The U.S. is like an elephant. The animal
could crush something in its sleep and never
know it. The U.S., simply by cutting some
imports, could crush Latin American coun-

Eagle Eye nabs national press association award
The Eagle Eye has recently been declared
a "First Place" award winner by The
American Scholastic Press Association in
its annual review of scholastic newspapers
and other publications.
In racking up 870 out of a grand total of
1000 points, the Eagle Eye was referred to
as being " a n excellent collegiate
newspaper" by one judge.
The Eagle Eye received a perfect score in
the editing category of the competition.
Perfect scores were also recorded in the
areas of features, layout design, and overall
visual appeal.
Dave Prusak, co-editor of the Eagle Eye,
said, "1 first heard the news about us taking
first prize from our ecstatic adviser, Dr.
Douglas Campbell. I don't know who's
more pleased with the award. Dr. Campbell
or myself."
Prusak said, "We have a limited staff,
but we try our best to inform the students
Skinmen are set for coffeehouse
By Dave Prusak
The Skinmen, featuring Mike Stephani
and Mike Maggs on guitars and vocals, will
perform in the first and last coffeehouse of

The Skinmen, who have been popular at
the Brickhouse Bar in State College, will

the event is being paid for through your activity fee."

on this campus about as much as possible.
The newspaper staff here may be limited,
but it is without a doubt one of the most
dedicated groups of people I've ever worked with."
Prusak added, "Everyone associated
with the Eagle Eye deserves a pat on the
back. With more of this same dedication,
the Eagle Eye will be sure to win many more
awards in the future."

Bloodmobile goal
of 300 pints is
not quite reached
By Sherri Wray
Blood was given by 247 people at the Red
Cross Bloodmobile held in Woolridge Hall
Lounge last Thursday.
Mrs. Janet Thorton said,"It is not as
much blood as we wanted. Our goal was
300 pints of blood."
Thorton also said that the Red Cross
usually does not get as much blood on the
April visit as it does in the fall.
Before giving blood, each student's
hemoglobin is tested for iron content, asked
many health questions, and then their
blood pressure, pulse, and temperature are
taken.
After the student has given blood, snacks
such as hot dogs, cookies and juice were
made available.

Despite criticism, Eagle Eye soars
In recent weeks the Eagle Eye has been attacked by members of the
student body for a number of reasons. Letters were written to the
editors referring to the paper as irresponsible and a rag. The Student
Cooperative Council (SCC) even threatened to cease funding the
paper.
Well, for those individuals who have expressed dissatisfaction with
our production (and we don't have to mention any names - you know
who you are) we have a small bit of news for you. The American
Scholastic Press Association awarded the Eagle Eye first place in a
competition among student newspapers across the country. For
schools enrolling 1,700 to 2,500 students, Lock Haven's newspaper
was ranked the best.
It is not my intention to boast our accomplishment to the point of
bragging. There are just a few people out there who deserve personal
notification of our achievement.
The Eagle Eye indeed suffers from a lack of participation. A small
staff spends countless hours preparing the paper for the students. For
such a small group to achieve an award of this magnitude is a wonder.
Each individual involved deserves a pat on the back.
Please do not misinterpret this pride as an inference to contentment. This is, I hope, just the beginning of a journalistic tradition here
at Lock Haven. Our aim is to provide a paper which the students can
enjoy, and of which they can be prouAiWe will continue our effort to
improve.
Several weeks back we received a letter from a student who claimed
he had enough journalistic awards to fill our office walls. Well, we appreciate his concern, but we really don't need his awards. This prizewinning newspaperis busy putting awards on walls which that personwill never see.

Dear Editor:
There are two c a m p u s organizations
which are deserving a lot of praise after
what they managed t o pull off this
weekend. The first of these is the M o d e r n
Dance Club, which held two performances
in Sloan Theatre. I offer my highest regards
to this group of extremely talented dancers
for their excellent performance. T h e individual dances were all well choreographed, and it was apparent that many hours of
hard work and practice had gone into the
show. This group of dancers was easily
deserving of their standing ovation a h u n dred times over. 1 was glad to see the large
student turn-out at the show, as I am sure it
proved to be a stimulating and exciting
show for everyone.
T h e second g r o u p I must congratulate is
the International Students Association for
their variety show, banquet, a n d panel
discussions. T h e organizers of the event
pulled off near miracles by managing to get
the quality diplomats they did to our small
university; 1 would have expected to see
panel discussions of this caliber only at
universities many times larger than o u r
own. The only disappointing aspect of the
festival was the attendance - or in this case,
the lack of attendance. It is unfortunate
that more students did not exert the minor
effort required to get involved and attend
the show and dicussion. I am confident
though, that those w h o did attend learned a
great deal from the experience about o u r
Latin American neighbors. The International S t u d e n t s A s s o c i a t i o n did a
remarkable j o b , and I hope all their
festivals in the future can be of the same
quality as this o n e .

Dear Editors:
We are forced, sadly, t o write a letter to
this newspaper concerning the appalling,
unexcusable, and absolutely condemnable
attitude o n the part of all sectors of
thisUniversity concerning this past
weekend's International Festival, the fifth
held here a n d the one most overlooked.
After all our efforts, to see that a mere
handful of people attended any of the feartured activities held here is a disappointment hard to express.
T h e highlight of this year's festival was
the panel discussion held on Saturday in
two sessions. For the first time a group of
diplomats came t o Lock Haven to discuss
highly pertinent issues in the world today.
So important that they are covered almost
on a daily basis by ail of this nation's
newspapers, without exception.
Any of the few people who went to the
panel discussion could see that fact. The
highest representative of El Salvador wsis
there. Issues like Nicaraguan policies, contras. President Reagan's foreign policies
were discussed. W h a t more could be mentioned here t o show the importance of this
event?
All of the gentlemen who were present
are top men in their careers, who kindly accepted to c o m e here and disclose first hand
information concerning their countries to
everyone. Illustrious doctors who did not
even mention the customary honorarium
paid to speakers of their caliber; who
changed their schedules to attend; some of
whom even had t o drive here. And to illustrate these m e n ' s importance maybe we
should mention that all of them are personal acquaintances of top officials in the
United States government and confer with
them frequently about the same subjects
they came t o discuss here.
A n d to such an important event this
university's main officials, with the exception of M r . George Marshall, did not attend. Not even one-hundredth of the student body was present. T h e vast majority of
students with their majors in government
and economics, in area studies, who should
be directly interested in the event did not
show u p . Not even taking into consideration the fact that these visitors are a m o n g
the best qualified in this country on those
issues.
But what is even harder t o comprehend,
much harder than the student response, is
the fact that the people responsible for the
intellectual aspect of a university, the faculty members, most of them, completely ignored this highly important discussion. We
assume that some could not attend but it is
inconceivable for a person with the
minimum o f c o m m o n sense that a teacher
who specializes in areas such as economics,
history, political science a n d / o r government would want t o d o anything else than
to attend a discussion that is of key
relevance t o the field of study he or she
chose as his o r her career. A career that includes the responsibility of educating other
people.
Before closing this first letter we would
like to thank the ones who did attend the
events and w h o , we are sure, profitted from
that. A n d t o recognize the people w h o gave
us support, a m o n g w h o m Mr. George Marshall, vice-president for administration;
Mr. A n t h o n y Torsell, and for the I.S.A.
students and others w h o worked for it.
A n d for the record, our great thanks and
warmest feelings of esteem to those
diplomats w h o so kindly honored us with
their presence.
Sincerely,
Juan Manuel SoaJe, I.S.A. President
Marcelo Cancclli, redactor

Batters split twinbili with Bloom
By Dave Walters
The Bald Eagle baseball squad came back
in the second game of their doubleheader to
hang on and thus gained a split with the
Huskies of Bloomsburg last Saturday.
Bloomsburg came out swinging in the
opener to down the Eagle batters 13-4.
Head coach Gary Bartley and his boys hung
tough and pulled out a 10-9 win in the
nightcap.
In game one, senior two-time allconference centerfielder Tom Reichenbach
boosted his batting average up to .373 with
a three-for-four performance. Freshman
Grant Myers also had a hot bat by going
two-for-four with two triples and one RBI.
Batting leader Toby Capparelle banged out
two hits to up his average to an impressive
.429.
The nightcap game was packed with excitement as the Eagles pulled out a victory
Bald Eagle Toby Capparelle went threefor-four in the team's 10-9 triumph over
Bloom. Capparelle is batting .429.
with a four run rally in the sixth and a game
winning RBI by first baseman Jim Gardner
in the seventh.
The Huskies jumped to an early 1-0 lead,
but the Eagles wouldn't die. By the fourth
inning, LHU had a 4-1 lead. Bloom tied it
in the fifth at four apiece. After five, the
score remained knotted but this time at
eight. The Huskies took a 9-8 lead in the
top of the final frame, but a two run Eagle
seventh muzzled the Huskie's attack.
Freshman Pat Stasio brought his batting
average to .303 with a three-for-three day;
Stasio also scored three times. Gardner
went three-for-three with two RBI's, and
Capparelle went three-for-four with two
RBI's and two doubles.
Bartley said, "The team is predictably
unpredictable. We refuse to give up. I'm
pleased to see that we still have a pretty
good competitive spirit."
Division champ Eagles prep for playoffs
By Scott Crispell
The Lady Eagle softball team, which is
the PSAC Western Division champion,
split a twinbili with Millersville University,
last night at Lawrence Field.
Lock Haven finished in a tie for first with
Edinboro at 8-2, but won the crown when
Edinboro elected to forfeit the playoff
game which was scheduled for Thursday.
In the opener against Millersville, LHU
scored two runs in the fifth and two more in
the sixth to down the Fighting Scots, 4-0.
Amy Stoudt and Sandy Staib each cracked run scoring singles in the fourth to lead
the Lady Eagles to victory.
Staib went the distance to pick up the
win.
In the nightcap. Lock Haven scored three
runs in the top of the first, but came out on
the short end of a 4-3 score.
Wendy Heiges led off the first with a
single and was sacrificed to second by Staib.
Kathy Kreisher and Tina Martin hit consecutive doubles. Bert Rothen ended the
scoring with a single.
Dawn Schnitzer suffered her second loss
of the season as she gave up a solo homer in
the bottom of (he seventh.
The Lady Eagles travelled to Edinboro
Saturday and came out with a split and a tie
for the division lead.
In the opener. Lock Haven scored one in
the top of the first on an RBI-single by Tina
Martin which scored Sandy Staib.
In the LHU third, Rothen and Heiges
each reached base on singles. Kreisher and
Martin each hit a sacrifice fly to give LHU a
3-0 lead.
Kreisher gave the Lady Eagles an insurance run when she singled in Rothen in
the fifth.
Sandy Staib pitched a shutout and picked
up the victory.
LHU fell behind 3-0 in the opener and
wound up losing, 3-2.
The only offense the Lady Eagles could
muster was an RBI-triple by Martin in the
fourth inning. Martin then scored on a
passed ball to make the score, 3-2.
Coach Wayne Allison wasn't satisfied
with the splits. He said, "We should be
winning these second games. All year long,
it seems like we relax after the first game.
We also had some errors and you can't
make errors and ex[>ect to win. It seems like
everyone is waiting for someone else to perform the heroics. Lately, no one has come
through for us."
The Lady Eagles will journey back to
Berwick Friday and Saturday to participate
in the PSAC Tournament. LHU, the
number-one seed from the western division
will meet Shippensburg, the number-two
seed from the eastern division at 1 p.m. on
Friday. Edinboro, the number-two seed
from the western division, will meet
number-one seeded east division foe,
Bloomsburg at 3 p.m. on Friday.
The winners of these two contests will
meet in the PSAC Championship softball
game on Saturday. The losers will meet in
an elimination game on the same day.
The first place from the double elimination tourney will qualify for the Division II
National Tournament.

Pitcher Sandy Staib continues to pace the

Thinclads perform
By Gerard Snyder
Deanna Hoffer leaped to first place
finishes in the triple jump and long jump
events to lead the Lock Haven Tracksters in
the Indiana University of Pa. Track and
Field Invitational held Saturday.
Hoffer skipped to a combined distance of
35 feet 10 inches in the triple jump while
also reaching a tournament best of 16 feet 9
inches in the long jump for her gold.
Following Hoffer was hurdler Sandy
Adams, who sparkled in the 400-meter
event for another first place finish against
competitors from California University of
Pa., West Virginia State, West Virginia
Welseyan, Carnegie Mellon, Malone College, and I UP.
Adams captured a second place finish in
the 100-meter hurdles along with Niecy
Houston, who powered her way to second
place finishes in both the shot put and
discus events.
Todd Hyman led the men with a silver
medal in the 110-meter hurdles, a bronze in
the 100-meter sprint and 4th in the
400-hurdles.
While Hyman was running hard, Dan
Moffet was hurling the shot and discus hard
and far for third place finishes in both
events.
Greg McGowan scooted his way to a
third in the 10,000-meter race.
Coach Mike McCready said, " I think the
team did well. We took everyone along who
could go and have started to come along.
We have qualified eight women and twelve
men for PSAC's in East Stroudsburg."
Rounding out the events, Andy Shearer
captured third in the steeple chase for the
men, while the team of Adams, Sherry
Groft, Karen Howeter, and Tina Gabert
combined for a third in the 4 x 100 meter
relays for the women. Adams, Groft,
Howeter, and Lisa Dipiero ran the 4 x 400
meter relay for a third as well.
Gabert placed third in the 400 meter
sprint.
McCready reminded all students to come
out on Saturday May 4th for the Lock
Haven Invitational. Any student may compete against teams from lUP, Clarion, and
California University of Pa. It is an excellent opportunity for all runners to show
their skills in a competitive collegiate atmosphere.

Final Dean candidate interview is conducted on campus
By Kim Madgiak
Dr. Lyle Cook of Idaho State University
visited the campus yesterday, concluding
the interviews for the new Dean of the College of Arts and Science. Dr. Betty
Wisniewski, Professor of Speech here conducted Cook's campus interview.
Cook is currently Professor of Math at
Idaho State University, in addition to having served as associate dean and acting dean
of the institution in the past.
Cook graduated from both South
Missouri State University and Oklahoma
State University, respectively.
Cook listed the activities he feels are important for a dean. Overseeing major func-
tions of the university is the one that stands
foremost in his mind. Next, is insuring that
the level of classroom instruction is the
highest possible. A final duty he stated as
being important is controlling the budget
after checking the curriculum and consulting with faculty.
Cook added that he feels he listens better
than he speaks. C o o k ' s scientific
background enables him to hear a lengthy,
abstract problem, find the source of it, and
state what is directly relative to the solution.
Also, Dr. Richard L. Langill, Chairman
of Social Sciences at Blackburn College in
Illinois, was interviewed bv the search com-
mittee last Friday. Dr. Howard Congdon,
Professor of English and Philosophy here,
and Dr. Matthew Maetozo, Dean of the
College of HPER here, conducted Langill's
visit to campus.
Langill stated that he is a product of the
east and west coasts, making it easy for him
to adapt to different places. He graduated
from a California University and then one
in Long Beach, so relocating to here from
Illinois would present no problems.
After graduating from college, Langill
joined the Peace Corps and served in the
South Pacific. He then returned to the U.S.
to earn his doctorate at the American
University.
Langill mentioned that he is a very selfdirected person. He is currently Chairman
of the North Central Self-Study Accreditation Committee.
The qualities Langill feels are necessary
in a dean are the ability to interact will with
faculty, and to be able to stimulate
academic scholarships. He added that his
personality enables him to wrestle with new
ideas which are a necessity for a dean to
have.
The Dean Search Committee will be
discussing the prospective candidates and
making a decision soon.
HPER professor lectures at seminar in Oregon
Dr. Kenneth M. Cox, professor in the
college of Health, Physical Education and
Recreation (HPER), was featured as the
guest lecturer at Pacific University in Forest
Grove, Oregon, recently. In his lecture. Dr.
Cox discussed "New School Reform in the
U.S.S.R." at seminars held both Friday
morning and afternoon. Also, Dr. Cox was
the guest instructor at the day long Oregon
Coaches's Clinic held on Saturday. He

Latin American ambassadors highlight festive weekend
By Kim Madgiak
The Fifth Annual International Festival
held here this past weekend consisted of a
Variety Show, two panel discussions with
visiting ambassadors and representatives
from Latin America, and dinner.
The highlights of the Festival were two
panel discussions on Saturday. The first
topic was "Latin America - On the Way to
Democracy." Associate professor NeLson
DeLevan of the history department here,
opened the session by introducing the panel
members and thanking the administration
and the International Association of
Students (I.S.A.) here for making the talk
possible. He then remarked on the students
attendance by saying, "It shows the U.S.
will do everything possible to help Latin
America, except learn about the countries
there."
Hernan Hurdato, Ambassador to the
Organization of American States (O.A.S.)
from Guatemala, simply stated that his
country was returning to a civilian
democratic government.
Political Affairs Officer Dr. Leonardo
Ruilova of the Embassy of Ecuador, mentioned that he felt democracy was a reality.
He added that democracy had to be worked
on since it is the sum of a large dimension,
and not merely a name. His government has
been democratic since 1980, but until that
time was run by dictatorships.
Dr. Fernando Zumbato, Costa Rica's
Ambassador to the U.S., arrived in Lock
Haven after watching Congress work in the
nation's capital this past week. He stated
that America has a true democracy, but
reminded everyone that diplomats and people shouldn't trust other diplomats too
much. Zumbato stated that, "After all,
Christopher Columbus was the first actual
diplomat. Columbus wasn't sure where he
was going, didn't know where he was once
he arrived, and used the government's
money to get there"
The Costa Rican government is the oldest
uninterrupted democracy in Latin America,
existing since 1948. The country, unlike
America, has been poor since its beginning,
but has the same values such as freedom of
the press and respect for human rights,
Zumbato added.
Professor Roland Visconti, Uruguay's
Representative to the O.A.S., commented,
"For almost 13 years my country, along
with Argentina and Chile, have been Latin
America's bad boys." This was because in
1967 a leftist group terrorized Uruguay, and
then a military junta ruled until 1984 when
free elections occurred. A democratic
government has been in the works in
Uruguay since then, Visconti added.
Professor Dane Bowen, of LHU's
History and Economics department, compared a diplomat to a lady, quoting, " T o a
diplomat, yes means maybe, maybe means
no, and no means he's no diplomat. When
a lady says no she means no, maybe means
probably not, and yes means she's no
lady." He concluded by pointing out that a
democracy is not easy to establish, and a
strong military is usually required. Latin
America, however, spends the smallest
amount of money of the seven continents
on its military budget.
The panel group reconvened in the afternoon to discuss, "Internal American
S y s t e m s . " Senior Pablo Maurvicio
Alvergue, El Salvador's Ambassador to the
U.S., spoke at this session, along with the
morning's panel. He summed up the
panel's views on the new topic by stating,
"The U.S. is like an elephant. The animal
could crush something in its sleep and never
know it. The U.S., simply by cutting some
imports, could crush Latin American coun-

Eagle Eye nabs national press association award
The Eagle Eye has recently been declared
a "First Place" award winner by The
American Scholastic Press Association in
its annual review of scholastic newspapers
and other publications.
In racking up 870 out of a grand total of
1000 points, the Eagle Eye was referred to
as being " a n excellent collegiate
newspaper" by one judge.
The Eagle Eye received a perfect score in
the editing category of the competition.
Perfect scores were also recorded in the
areas of features, layout design, and overall
visual appeal.
Dave Prusak, co-editor of the Eagle Eye,
said, "1 first heard the news about us taking
first prize from our ecstatic adviser, Dr.
Douglas Campbell. I don't know who's
more pleased with the award. Dr. Campbell
or myself."
Prusak said, "We have a limited staff,

on this campus about as much as possible.
The newspaper staff here may be limited,
but it is without a doubt one of the most
dedicated groups of people I've ever worked with."
Prusak added, "Everyone associated
with the Eagle Eye deserves a pat on the

the Eagle Eye will be sure to win many more
awards in the future."

Bloodmobile goal
of 300 pints is
not quite reached
By Sherri Wray
Blood was given by 247 people at the Red
Cross Bloodmobile held in Woolridge Hall
Lounge last Thursday.
Mrs. Janet Thorton said,"It is not as
much blood as we wanted. Our goal was
300 pints of blood."
Thorton also said that the Red Cross
usually does not get as much blood on the
April visit as it does in the fall.
Before giving blood, each student's
hemoglobin is tested for iron content, asked
many health questions, and then their
blood pressure, pulse, and temperature are
taken.
After the student has given blood, snacks
such as hot dogs, cookies and juice were
made available.

Despite criticism, Eagle Eye soars
In recent weeks the Eagle Eye has been attacked by members of the
student body for a number of reasons. Letters were written to the
editors referring to the paper as irresponsible and a rag. The Student
Cooperative Council (SCC) even threatened to cease funding the
paper.
Well, for those individuals who have expressed dissatisfaction with
our production (and we don't have to mention any names - you know
who you are) we have a small bit of news for you. The American
Scholastic Press Association awarded the Eagle Eye first place in a
competition among student newspapers across the country. For
schools enrolling 1,700 to 2,500 students, Lock Haven's newspaper
was ranked the best.
It is not my intention to boast our accomplishment to the point of
bragging. There are just a few people out there who deserve personal
notification of our achievement.
The Eagle Eye indeed suffers from a lack of participation. A small
staff spends countless hours preparing the paper for the students. For
such a small group to achieve an award of this magnitude is a wonder.
Each individual involved deserves a pat on the back.
Please do not misinterpret this pride as an inference to contentment. This is, I hope, just the beginning of a journalistic tradition here
at Lock Haven. Our aim is to provide a paper which the students can
enjoy, and of which they can be prouAiWe will continue our effort to
improve.
Several weeks back we received a letter from a student who claimed
he had enough journalistic awards to fill our office walls. Well, we appreciate his concern, but we really don't need his awards. This prizewinning newspaperis busy putting awards on walls which that personwill never see.

Dear Editor:
There are two c a m p u s organizations
which are deserving a lot of praise after
what they managed t o pull off this
weekend. The first of these is the M o d e r n
Dance Club, which held two performances
in Sloan Theatre. I offer my highest regards
to this group of extremely talented dancers
for their excellent performance. T h e individual dances were all well choreographed, and it was apparent that many hours of
hard work and practice had gone into the
show. This group of dancers was easily
deserving of their standing ovation a h u n dred times over. 1 was glad to see the large
student turn-out at the show, as I am sure it
proved to be a stimulating and exciting
show for everyone.
T h e second g r o u p I must congratulate is
the International Students Association for
their variety show, banquet, a n d panel
discussions. T h e organizers of the event
pulled off near miracles by managing to get
the quality diplomats they did to our small
university; 1 would have expected to see
panel discussions of this caliber only at
universities many times larger than o u r
own. The only disappointing aspect of the
festival was the attendance - or in this case,
the lack of attendance. It is unfortunate
that more students did not exert the minor
effort required to get involved and attend
the show and dicussion. I am confident
though, that those w h o did attend learned a
great deal from the experience about o u r
Latin American neighbors. The International S t u d e n t s A s s o c i a t i o n did a
remarkable j o b , and I hope all their
festivals in the future can be of the same
quality as this o n e .

Dear Editors:
We are forced, sadly, t o write a letter to
this newspaper concerning the appalling,
unexcusable, and absolutely condemnable
attitude o n the part of all sectors of
thisUniversity concerning this past
weekend's International Festival, the fifth
held here a n d the one most overlooked.
After all our efforts, to see that a mere
handful of people attended any of the feartured activities held here is a disappointment hard to express.
T h e highlight of this year's festival was
the panel discussion held on Saturday in
two sessions. For the first time a group of
diplomats came t o Lock Haven to discuss
highly pertinent issues in the world today.
So important that they are covered almost
on a daily basis by ail of this nation's
newspapers, without exception.
Any of the few people who went to the
panel discussion could see that fact. The
highest representative of El Salvador wsis
there. Issues like Nicaraguan policies, contras. President Reagan's foreign policies
were discussed. W h a t more could be mentioned here t o show the importance of this
event?
All of the gentlemen who were present
are top men in their careers, who kindly accepted to c o m e here and disclose first hand
information concerning their countries to
everyone. Illustrious doctors who did not
even mention the customary honorarium
paid to speakers of their caliber; who
changed their schedules to attend; some of
whom even had t o drive here. And to illustrate these m e n ' s importance maybe we
should mention that all of them are personal acquaintances of top officials in the
United States government and confer with
them frequently about the same subjects
they came t o discuss here.
A n d to such an important event this
university's main officials, with the exception of M r . George Marshall, did not attend. Not even one-hundredth of the student body was present. T h e vast majority of
students with their majors in government
and economics, in area studies, who should
be directly interested in the event did not
show u p . Not even taking into consideration the fact that these visitors are a m o n g
the best qualified in this country on those
issues.
But what is even harder t o comprehend,
much harder than the student response, is
the fact that the people responsible for the
intellectual aspect of a university, the faculty members, most of them, completely ignored this highly important discussion. We
assume that some could not attend but it is
inconceivable for a person with the
minimum o f c o m m o n sense that a teacher
who specializes in areas such as economics,
history, political science a n d / o r government would want t o d o anything else than
to attend a discussion that is of key
relevance t o the field of study he or she
chose as his o r her career. A career that includes the responsibility of educating other
people.
Before closing this first letter we would
like to thank the ones who did attend the
events and w h o , we are sure, profitted from
that. A n d t o recognize the people w h o gave
us support, a m o n g w h o m Mr. George Marshall, vice-president for administration;
Mr. A n t h o n y Torsell, and for the I.S.A.
students and others w h o worked for it.
A n d for the record, our great thanks and
warmest feelings of esteem to those
diplomats w h o so kindly honored us with
their presence.
Sincerely,
Juan Manuel SoaJe, I.S.A. President

Batters split twinbili with Bloom
By Dave Walters
The Bald Eagle baseball squad came back
in the second game of their doubleheader to
hang on and thus gained a split with the
Huskies of Bloomsburg last Saturday.
Bloomsburg came out swinging in the
opener to down the Eagle batters 13-4.
Head coach Gary Bartley and his boys hung
tough and pulled out a 10-9 win in the
nightcap.
In game one, senior two-time allconference centerfielder Tom Reichenbach
boosted his batting average up to .373 with
a three-for-four performance. Freshman
Grant Myers also had a hot bat by going
two-for-four with two triples and one RBI.
Batting leader Toby Capparelle banged out
two hits to up his average to an impressive
.429.
The nightcap game was packed with excitement as the Eagles pulled out a victory
Bald Eagle Toby Capparelle went threefor-four in the team's 10-9 triumph over
Bloom. Capparelle is batting .429.
with a four run rally in the sixth and a game
winning RBI by first baseman Jim Gardner
in the seventh.
The Huskies jumped to an early 1-0 lead,
but the Eagles wouldn't die. By the fourth
inning, LHU had a 4-1 lead. Bloom tied it
in the fifth at four apiece. After five, the
score remained knotted but this time at
eight. The Huskies took a 9-8 lead in the
top of the final frame, but a two run Eagle
seventh muzzled the Huskie's attack.
Freshman Pat Stasio brought his batting
average to .303 with a three-for-three day;
Stasio also scored three times. Gardner
went three-for-three with two RBI's, and
Capparelle went three-for-four with two
RBI's and two doubles.
Bartley said, "The team is predictably
unpredictable. We refuse to give up. I'm
pleased to see that we still have a pretty
good competitive spirit."
Division champ Eagles prep for playoffs
By Scott Crispell
The Lady Eagle softball team, which is
the PSAC Western Division champion,
split a twinbili with Millersville University,
last night at Lawrence Field.
Lock Haven finished in a tie for first with
Edinboro at 8-2, but won the crown when
Edinboro elected to forfeit the playoff
game which was scheduled for Thursday.
In the opener against Millersville, LHU
scored two runs in the fifth and two more in
the sixth to down the Fighting Scots, 4-0.
Amy Stoudt and Sandy Staib each cracked run scoring singles in the fourth to lead
the Lady Eagles to victory.
Staib went the distance to pick up the
win.
In the nightcap. Lock Haven scored three
runs in the top of the first, but came out on
the short end of a 4-3 score.
Wendy Heiges led off the first with a
single and was sacrificed to second by Staib.
Kathy Kreisher and Tina Martin hit consecutive doubles. Bert Rothen ended the
scoring with a single.
Dawn Schnitzer suffered her second loss
of the season as she gave up a solo homer in
the bottom of (he seventh.
The Lady Eagles travelled to Edinboro
Saturday and came out with a split and a tie
for the division lead.
In the opener. Lock Haven scored one in
the top of the first on an RBI-single by Tina
Martin which scored Sandy Staib.
In the LHU third, Rothen and Heiges
each reached base on singles. Kreisher and
Martin each hit a sacrifice fly to give LHU a
3-0 lead.
Kreisher gave the Lady Eagles an insurance run when she singled in Rothen in
the fifth.
Sandy Staib pitched a shutout and picked
up the victory.
LHU fell behind 3-0 in the opener and
wound up losing, 3-2.
The only offense the Lady Eagles could
muster was an RBI-triple by Martin in the
fourth inning. Martin then scored on a
passed ball to make the score, 3-2.
Coach Wayne Allison wasn't satisfied
with the splits. He said, "We should be
winning these second games. All year long,
it seems like we relax after the first game.
We also had some errors and you can't
make errors and ex[>ect to win. It seems like
everyone is waiting for someone else to perform the heroics. Lately, no one has come
through for us."
The Lady Eagles will journey back to
Berwick Friday and Saturday to participate
in the PSAC Tournament. LHU, the
number-one seed from the western division
will meet Shippensburg, the number-two
seed from the eastern division at 1 p.m. on
Friday. Edinboro, the number-two seed
from the western division, will meet
number-one seeded east division foe,
Bloomsburg at 3 p.m. on Friday.
The winners of these two contests will
meet in the PSAC Championship softball
game on Saturday. The losers will meet in
an elimination game on the same day.
The first place from the double elimination tourney will qualify for the Division II
National Tournament.

Pitcher Sandy Staib continues to pace the

Thinclads perform
By Gerard Snyder
Deanna Hoffer leaped to first place
finishes in the triple jump and long jump
events to lead the Lock Haven Tracksters in
the Indiana University of Pa. Track and
Field Invitational held Saturday.
Hoffer skipped to a combined distance of
35 feet 10 inches in the triple jump while
also reaching a tournament best of 16 feet 9
inches in the long jump for her gold.
Following Hoffer was hurdler Sandy
Adams, who sparkled in the 400-meter
event for another first place finish against
competitors from California University of
Pa., West Virginia State, West Virginia
Welseyan, Carnegie Mellon, Malone College, and I UP.
Adams captured a second place finish in
the 100-meter hurdles along with Niecy
Houston, who powered her way to second
place finishes in both the shot put and
discus events.
Todd Hyman led the men with a silver
medal in the 110-meter hurdles, a bronze in
the 100-meter sprint and 4th in the
400-hurdles.
While Hyman was running hard, Dan
Moffet was hurling the shot and discus hard
and far for third place finishes in both
events.
Greg McGowan scooted his way to a
third in the 10,000-meter race.
Coach Mike McCready said, " I think the
team did well. We took everyone along who
could go and have started to come along.
We have qualified eight women and twelve
men for PSAC's in East Stroudsburg."
Rounding out the events, Andy Shearer
captured third in the steeple chase for the
men, while the team of Adams, Sherry
Groft, Karen Howeter, and Tina Gabert
combined for a third in the 4 x 100 meter
relays for the women. Adams, Groft,
Howeter, and Lisa Dipiero ran the 4 x 400
meter relay for a third as well.
Gabert placed third in the 400 meter
sprint.
McCready reminded all students to come
out on Saturday May 4th for the Lock
Haven Invitational. Any student may compete against teams from lUP, Clarion, and
California University of Pa. It is an excellent opportunity for all runners to show
their skills in a competitive collegiate atmosphere.

visited the campus yesterday, concluding
the interviews for the new Dean of the College of Arts and Science. Dr. Betty
Wisniewski, Professor of Speech here conducted Cook's campus interview.
Cook is currently Professor of Math at
Idaho State University, in addition to having served as associate dean and acting dean
of the institution in the past.
Cook graduated from both South
Missouri State University and Oklahoma
State University, respectively.
Cook listed the activities he feels are important for a dean. Overseeing major func-
tions of the university is the one that stands
foremost in his mind. Next, is insuring that
the level of classroom instruction is the
highest possible. A final duty he stated as
being important is controlling the budget
after checking the curriculum and consulting with faculty.
Cook added that he feels he listens better
than he speaks. C o o k ' s scientific
background enables him to hear a lengthy,
abstract problem, find the source of it, and
state what is directly relative to the solution.
Also, Dr. Richard L. Langill, Chairman
of Social Sciences at Blackburn College in
Illinois, was interviewed bv the search com-
mittee last Friday. Dr. Howard Congdon,
Professor of English and Philosophy here,
and Dr. Matthew Maetozo, Dean of the
College of HPER here, conducted Langill's
visit to campus.
Langill stated that he is a product of the
east and west coasts, making it easy for him
to adapt to different places. He graduated
from a California University and then one
in Long Beach, so relocating to here from
Illinois would present no problems.
After graduating from college, Langill
joined the Peace Corps and served in the
South Pacific. He then returned to the U.S.
to earn his doctorate at the American
University.
Langill mentioned that he is a very selfdirected person. He is currently Chairman
of the North Central Self-Study Accreditation Committee.
The qualities Langill feels are necessary
in a dean are the ability to interact will with
faculty, and to be able to stimulate
academic scholarships. He added that his
personality enables him to wrestle with new
ideas which are a necessity for a dean to
have.
The Dean Search Committee will be
discussing the prospective candidates and
making a decision soon.
