PRESIDENTS CORNER

LOOKING FORWARD TO 1979:

Early this month a conversation between Wal- ter Cronkite and Eric Severeid was telecast on CBS. The first comment I heard about it later was "they are so pessimistic!"

It can be disconcerting to hear two highly re- spected journalists admit that they don't know whether this country will fare very well in 1979. Our problems are immense and solu- tions may demand more than Americans are willing to provide. Yet is this acknowledg- ment pessimism ?

The big booster-rooters often suggest by their self-induced enthusiasm that we can encourage ourselves into paradise. Their unending pep talks are boring to the point of paralysis. Even the half truth that doom can be a self-fulfilling prophecy loses its punch three days after Halloween. Personally, I find the admissions of Severeid and Cronkite refreshing and encouraging. Confidence based upon quick and easy solutions, inflated expectations, and dogmatic claims to omni- science frighten me even more than the trou- bles of our times.

Naive optimism whistles in the dark. It is wishful thinking masquerading as confidence. Self-deception in the face of danger is really the antithesis of genuine optimism. Unvar- nished realism, on the other hand, is usually expressed by basically confident analysts.

tnber diagnoses of the human condi- tion reflect, it seems to me, combinations of optimism and courage. They couple the as- sumption that opportunity continues with a willingness to risk and venture.

[ axped I If i i a risk, a big risk. Maybe

I've read too many stories about Abraham and Moses who ventured, not knowing where the future would lead them. They didn't even expect to know how the story would end before the) embarked. They exercised reliable op- timism, not because they felt immune to trou- ble, but because they trusted in something . They were optimistic, not because they counted on success, but because they knew that personal adversity and even failure can be transformed by his- tory if guided by providence.

Courage is not so much confidence in one's personal prowess as it is the willingness to face an unknown future. Reliable optimism springs not from self-sufficiency or a sense of adequacy but from courage coupled with faith. Pessimism and despair overwhelm us not because risks and problems have never been so great (they probably have!), but be- cause we no longer see opportunity in those risks and problems. Reliable optimism is never an underestimation of the dangers and threats. It is courage reinforced by a vision of ever-present opportunity. The issue is not how rough the sledding gets; the issue is whether we have the courage to peer into the

$500,000 GIFT LIFTS CAMPAIGN FOR GEORGE R. LAMADE GYM

The Partners in Progress Campaign re- ceived a substantial financial increment and the proposed gymnasium a name January 17 at a Leaders Dinner held for approximately 75 prominent WiUiamsport area residents in Pennington Lounge.

The major development in the drive to raise $3,700,000 for a new physical education and recreation center came with the announce- ment by John E. Person, Jr., a member of the Board of Trustees, acknowledging a con- tribution of $500,000 from the WiUiamsport Foundation with a suggestion that the gymna- sium in the proposed center be named The George R. Lamade Gymnasium in honor of a former outstanding community leader who died in 1965. Person made the announcement in a dual capacity as a member of the Leader- ship Gifts Committee of the campaign and as chairman of the WiUiamsport Foundation. The Board of Trustees in an earUer meeting had unanimously approved the suggested name for the new gymnasium.

The late George R, Lamade, a lifelong resi- dent of WiUiamsport who received an honor- ary Doctor of Letters Degree from Lycoming in 1957, was publisher of Grit PubUshing Company, WiUiamsport, at the time of his

LOW BID OF *2. 789.000 RECEIVED FOR NEW GYM

Bids from nine general contractors were sub- mitted to the coUege for construction of the proposed physical education and recreation center and school officials were elated when the low bid of $2,789,000 by Bloom Penn Contractors of Bloomsburg was considerably less than anticipated.

The figure includes a base bid of $2,409,000 plus six alternate bids of $380, 000 for op- tional facUities, with most of the alternates to cover the cost of increasing the size of the gymnasium from a two to a three-station unit. A station is the equivalent of one basketbaU court. Bids ranged from the low of $2,789,000 by Bloom Penn to a high of $3, 170, 500 submit- ted by S. G. Mastriani Company, Scranton.

Dr. Frederick E. Blumer, president of Ly- coming, said the bids will be studied by the

death. He was an outstanding c leader throughout his adult Ufe and supported many progressive civic projects which he believed would aid in the development and growth of the city.

The $500, 000 from the foundation increased the total from the major advanced gifts an- nounced recently in the Partners in Progress Campaign to $760,000. Two large contribu- tions revealed previously include $200,000 from the Pew Memorial Trust and one of $60, 000 from the late Walter J. Heim, a mem ber of the Board of Trustees at the time of his death in 1978.

The advanced gifts phase of the campaign is expected to continue for several more months before the pubUc portion of the campaign is launched at mid-year.

Building and Grounds Committee and recom- mendation to accept or reject the bids will be made to the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees for final action at a meet- ing later this month. He said the Executive Committee will also determine whether the gymnasium wiU be a two or three-station unit.

A definite timetable for groundbreaking and construction of the new building is expected to be announced soon after the meeting of the Executive Committee, if the committee ap- proves the awarding of a contract. The ten- tative target dates are April or May for the official groundbreaking and completion of con- struction is anticipated by September, 1980. The proposed buUding wiU be located south of the present gymnasium on the former site of Old Main and the present Eveland HaU, which wUl be razed.

Plans call for 64,034 square feet of flexible space in the building and will include regula- tion-size courts for basketbaU, indoor tennis, volleybaU and badminton along with related faciUties. Also to be included are areas for wrestling, gymnastics, modern dance and intramural sports. In addition, there will be a regulation-size, six-lane swimming pool with a 200-seat gaUery for spectators. The main gymnasium is expected to accommodate approximately 2,000 spectators.

GRANT OF $4,500 AWARDED FOR NEW CHAPEL CENTER

A grant of $4, 500 has been awarded to the Lycoming College United Campus Ministry by the Pitcairn-Crabbe Foundation, Pitts- burgh, to help finance construction of a physical center for ministry activities and programs in the basement of Clarke Chapel.

The Pitcairn-Crabbe Foundation, with assets of $3, 750, 000, supports organizations located within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, with preference given to Western Pennsylva- nia. Grants are awarded primarily to reli-

vices, church- related schools, and colleges and theological

The $4,500 grant from the foundation will supplement funds provided by the Bishop of Scranton to finance the construction of a wor- ship center to be used for Roman Catholic liturgy. It will also be available for other ecumenical religious services.

Construction of the center is expected to be- gin next spring. The area to be utilized for the worship complex is presently occupied by the scenery workshop of the college theatre department. The workshop will be relocated after completion of a campus facility Utiliza- tion survey being conducted in correlation with the proposed construction this year of a new physical education and recreation center.

The ministry center will include the chapel and a meeting area with kitchen facilities for social events. A second area adjacent to the workshop center will be converted into a lounge -reading area, storage space for chap- el equipment, a robing room, and a private area for use by the college chaplains for counseling and the Sacrament of Reconcilia-

Two small adjacent rooms will be used for a clerical (unction and for records, files, stud- ent committee headquarters and office space for the volunteer programs.

The Lycoming College United Campus Minis- try serves students of all faiths and denomi- nations, as well as those who have no specif- ic identification with a church. Services are provided by chaplains for each faith and de- nomination with significant representation among the students. Chaplains have been appointed by the college, in cooperation with local churches, to serve students who are Roman Catholic, United Methodist, Lutheran, Presbyterian, Episcopalian and Baptist.

Choir To Appear on National Radio Program

Members of the Lycoming College Concert Choir were to begin rehearsals this month in preparation for three concerts which will be presented in 1980 on the Protestant Hour, a nationwide radio program with an estimated audience of 10,000,000.

| Although listeners of the weekly one-hour broadcast will not hear the concerts until mid- 1980, rehearsals were to start soon after students returned from the holiday-semester break in January to prepare for the recordings of the three concerts prior to the end of the 1978-79 spring term.

Producers of the program work at least one year in advance, and Dr. Fred M. Thayer, assistant professor of music and director of the choir, said the recording staff from the CBS Radio Network will be on campus soon after the spring break in March to tape the musical portion of the three programs. The 62-voice choir will sing four hymns, three responses, and one anthem during each of the broadcasts, which will be aired on May 25, June 22, and July 20, 1980. United Methodist Bishop Roy Nichols will preach the ser- mons to be presented as part of each program.

Lycoming College was chosen to participate in three of the United Methodist Series of programs after auditioning in competition with other choirs several months ago. Dr. Frederick E. Blumer, president of Lycoming, was notified of the selection of the choir by David M. Abernathy, executive director of the Joint Communications Committee of The United Methodist Church. The Protestant Hour is co-sponsored by The United Methodist, Episcopal, Lutheran and Presbyterian denominations.

INJURIES COULD DELAY 200th WHITEHILL WIN

Lycoming's wrestling squad welcomed the long four-week holiday-semester break to recuperate from numerous injuries which had sidelined a number of the grapplers dur- ing early-season competition and which may delay coach Budd Whitehill's reaching a dis- tinguished milestone in his coaching career 200 wins as a college wrestling coach.

Despite the absence of several veteran wrest- lers, the Warriors easily topped King's, 32-6 in the only dual meet prior to the holiday- semester break. They also finished fourth and eighth, respec- tively, in the strong Bloomsburg State College and Lock Haven State College tournaments. Ly- coming was the only Division III team entered in either tournament. A second dual meet with Mansfield scheduled for De- cember 14 was changed to January 29 because of final exams at Lycoming.

Chilli

Unless the injured wrestlers fail to recuper- ate or the Warriors are unexpectedly upset in dual meets they normally would be expect- ed to win, Whitehill could achieve a feat sometime in January only a relatively few wrestling coaches have attained in college ranks. The only coach the Warrior wrestlers have had since the sport was introduced in 1956, Whitehill began the season with a 197-

Basketball Record 4-5 Nearing Halfway Point

The Lycoming basketball team opened the season with two victories, both in Hilltop Gym, before playing seven consecutive games on foreign courts where the Warriors lost five of the seven contests for a 4-5 record ap- proaching the halfway point of a 22-game schedule.

Coach Dutch Burch's cagers began the season with a 79-64 win over Lock Haven State Col- lege and a 90-74 thumping of Juniata in a Middle Atlantic Conference game before drop- ping four straight on the road to Scranton, 77- 70; Wilkes, 62-60 in overtime; Navy, 94-70, and Widener, 81-59, in the opening round of the Widener Christmas Tournament. The Warriors broke the losing streak by cap- turing the consolation championship of the tournament with a 72-60 defeat of Swarth- more. The Warriors also finished third in the Flying Dutchman Tournament at Lebanon Valley when they trounced York College, 74- 58, after losing to Susquehanna, 60-56, in the opening game.

The two tournaments served as warm-ups for the tough race ahead for a spot in the MAC playoffs. The Warriors face an uphill battle to repeat or improve last year's second-place finish. The Northern Division of the confer- ence has been divided into two sections this year, with the two top positions in each of the sections eligible for the playoffs. The Wilkes and Scranton losses dropped the Warriors to a 1-2 MAC mark, and 10 of the remaining 13 games on the schedule are conference contests Fourteen games were played under last year's league structure, and the Warriors' second- place finish came on a 9-5 record.

95-1 record, and adding the win against Kings, needs only two more victories to reach the coveted 200-victory mark.

During the span of 22 years, Whitehill's teams have had only two losing seasons while compiling the 197-95-1 record. The fine won-lost mark becomes even more im- pressive when considering the tough schedule of recent years when approximately half of the teams the Warriors have faced have been from Division I schools. The Warriors have not lost to a Division III team since 1974-75, and for the last two years the Blue and Gold wrestlers have been champions of the Middle Atlantic Conference. The string of 31 con- secutive wins over opponents from their own division goes back to a close 21-19 loss to Elizabethtown in 1974-75 during one of the two years Lycoming has recorded a losing season (9-10). The other (2-4) came in the first year of competition in 1956-57.

None of Whitehill's team have ever been un- defeated, although both the 1961-62 and the 1962-63 squads came close. The 1961-62 team compiled the best record in the 22-year history of the sport at Lycoming by winning 11 meets while losing only one, and the fol- lowing year the Warriors compiled a fine lo-l mark to go on record as the only two teams to come within one victory of marking up an undefeated season. The one tie on the Lyco record came in 1973-74 when the War- riors and the University of Maryland battled to a 15-15 stalemate in a quadrangular meet at College Park, Md. A large number of Whitehill's wrestlers have captured Middle Atlantic Conference and national champion- ships during his 22-year tenure at Lycoming.

i 1976 from ence degree i assistant

The debut of women's basketball as a varsity sport at Lycoming was delayed until mid-Jan- uary when the opening game with Wilkes on December 12 had to be cancelled because of a mix-up in the schedule. The contest at Wilkes was to have been the only game prior to the long holiday -semester break, and the women were scheduled to make their delayed debut at home on January 16 against Susque- hanna. The game was the first of 11 to be played before ending the season at King's on February 22.
