Unlike J many colleges anduniversities throughout the country that have closed down completely for the winter, energy-consuming months, the Mercyhurstadministration has made the decision that they could-remain openwhile making generous, i campus-wide attempts to cut down onunnecessary power. j lTake the learning Resource Center, for example. Director JoanCooper h a s made several changes in JJier operating procedure in anattempt to conserve energy v Like many homes,, businesses sandindustries in the country, the Resource Center's thermostat hasbeen dropped fronted degrees to 68 degrees during business hoursand 60 degrees during those hours the Resource Center is not open.A chilly change, M rs. Cooper agrees, but an imp ortant pne. Hourshave chan ged too. The Center will be opening and closing earlierthan it has i n t h e past to take maximum advantage of natural light.The After-Hours Study Room, however, will remain open tillmidnight. Hours will be expanded during exam weeks. Plans aren o w i n progress to reduce, b u t n o t eliminate lighting in certain areasof ihe Resource CenterWhe goal for this, said Mrs. Cooperps to

supply a little "candlefoot power" as is needed for "lighting efficiency". One point thatfM r s . Cooper has,stressed repeatedly isthat students who are^ unfavorably affected by these temporarychanges should meetjwith her. "If any student feels that this isworking a hardship on them,'' said M r s . Copper,'1 wish they wouldsee m e about i t s o w e c a n work something out." The S tudentiUnion in Zurn Hall has also introduced some energy-saving changes. Phil Herring indicated that the standard heat andlighting reduction will be made along with shorter h ours. "W e'll beopening later and closing earli er," said He rring. The major changeconcerning Union activities concerns the>Coffee House Circuitprogram. A memo from Circuit headquarters in NewgYork indicates tha t travel problems will be plentiful this winter and delayswill arise from the gas shortage. Monday shows may have to becancelled completely. I \ I M IIt is expected that Dr. Shane will release a formal proposal ofenergy saving ideas that will be feasible an d workable for the entireschool. This proposal will b e released next week.

Six In Rowby Dario Cipriani, Sports Editor

Th e Mercyhurst Collegebasketball team opened the 1974portion of their slate with a veryconvincing 90-59 -victory overPoint Park College last Saturdaynight at Gannon Auditorium. F orthe Lakers it was their sixthstraight victory and their seventhin their last!eight outings. Mercy hu rst's season record nowstands at seven wins and foursetbacks J (not* including Wednesday's game at A lliance).Following a slow start, the'Hurst has defeated EasternConnecticut State and NorthAdams S tate in the Western NewEngland Classic, Shaw, Mansfield S tate and Bluefield S tate inthe Greater Bluefield Invitationaland now Point Park . The 31 pointvictory over the Pioneers wasespecially satisfying since thePittsburgh school defeated theLakers 98-80 ear lier in the season.

The Point Park game was thefinest the Lakers have played thisseason. J esse Campbell -completely dominated both ends ofthe floor in the first half. He had22 points and 11 rebounds duringthe first twenty minutes while therest of the Lakers were playing asticky man-to-man defense whichforced 16 Pioneer turnovers. The

'Hurst carried a 48-26 lead intothe dressing room at half-timeand, except for a flurry by PointParkjj during the first eightminutes of the second half, wehad commandf of the 'entirebal lgame. Curt]#Hixon and4 S tretch" McConnell picked upJesse's scoring slack in thesecond! canto. They ended theevening with 16 points apiecewhile Campbell netted 25.In my last article I referred to acomment made by Edinboro'sS.I.D., Paul Newman, concerningour team's 0-3 record,%Well, theredheaded Scot was on handSaturdayI night and his wordscarried a different tune.

Wefve ComeLong Way, Babyby Garrett Kenilworth

Believe it or not, MercyhurstCoUege has a knack for doingthings well when it puts its mindto it. For instance, the drasticdecision to go co-ed has workedout brilliantly iafter that ifirstgexplosive year. Along with themen of course came sports, ameaty piece of bait to lure thosemale jocks who still consideredMercyhurst an all-girls * schooland one that only a sissy (Godforbid) would go to.Obviously it would be no easytask to reel these first yearathletes in. I mean what can youoffer them besides picnics in thegrotto, Tuesday j night ij parties-with all the girls you can LOOKat, and oh yes, a first |rateeducation. So in 1969, when males werefirst accepted at! the Hurst after43 years of female chauvinism, anathletic committee was also setup to guide the prescribeddirection our program wouldtake, i | | $&Tennis was number ljpriorityon the list and still is. The sport isplayedi on a nationally competitive basis but is not the greatspectators sport (which is a sin)that outnumber 2 priority sportbasketball lis. For basketball todo two things: pick a coach andadopt a competitive.*philosophy.In Dick Fox they not only picked atop notched coach, but alsoreceived an added bonus in * thathe is also a super recruiter.*Foxdidn't have much to sell so he laidhis cards on the table. The coachoffered his recruits a chance toplay, to be pioneers in a sense and 'actually take part 1 in an experiment which was somewhat ofa gamble. Behind each basketball

after Westminister College.Which is? simply, j play competitive i enough f for the Pennsylvania leagues, and use mostlyP.A. boys.I K Ig&fe^mjgyiWell, with very few exceptionsour initial team exemplified thisphilosophy to thegT. That teamwas erra tic, as a young team willbe relying \ heavily on * ourveterans, Fessler landf Carter.When we left P. A. we were for themost part out of our league, g gOur second year lookedpromising however! with theacquisition of J esse Campbell andSteve Albert, and J.C. Cartercoming off good years. But earlydissension on the team, y someseemingly racial, but moreselfishness between the big menand guards got us off to a sluggishstart. Despite last year's fantastic finish going to the finals ofthe District 18 playoffs, it mayhave been that early lag thateventually hurt us in the last 4minutes of the!Slippery Rockgame; we just couldn't get^ittogether to break theft* freeze.If we deviated slightly from ourWestminister CoUege philosophylast year, this year we will begrossly deviant. And I think themembers of the athletic committee who adopted "it will bedelighted. We still have our P.A.boys, with help from Kentucky.Delaware (close) Michigan, andNew York, but I'm sorry to tellthe committee this is the year wego NATIONAL.
