—The Highacres Collegian PSU athletic teams post 73.6 percent win record UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa.—Penn State's 31-sport varsi ty athletic program compiled a record of 316 victories, 112 losses and four ties for a 73.6 winning percentage in the 1979-80 year. Highlighting the year were the national championships won by the women's fencing, women's gymnastics and women's lacrosse teams. Seven other Penn State teams also finished among the top eight schools in the country in national competition. The women's field hockey team finished second in the nation. Both the men's and women's cross country teams recorded third-place finishes, along with the women's bowling team and the men's soccer teams. The men's fencing team finished in a tie for fifth place and the men's gymnastics team took eighth in National Collegiate Athletic Association competition. Two coaches were recognized by their peers as the outstanding members of their profession last year. Soccer coach Walter Bahr was named national coach of the year after his team finished third in the NCAA championship in Board of Trustees approves 10.5 percent tuition hike of Trustees in preparation for a deficiency in state funding. The future, however, does not hold good news about the cost of tuition. Future tuition increases are probably unavoidable; however, the next increase may occur sooner than was expected. - During the summer, Penn State was forced to give up 10 per cent of the $127 million that the state of Pennsylvania had ap propriated for the University. This cut in funding was due to a ;41 million state deficit. The deficit led to funding cuts for four of Pennsylvania's state-related schools (Penn State, Pitt, Tem ple, and Lincoln University). These four schools are classified as non-preferred; they receive their appropriations after all other state-owned institutions are appropriated. Non-preferred in stitutions, therefore, are at the top of the list for budget decreases if a deficit should arise. If the existing deficit can not be eliminated by legislation, Penn State will need to re examine its budget and, perhaps, increase tuition to cover the defi ciency in funds. Whatever events may occur, we can be sure that the future does not look bright where it con cerns the ever-rising tuition costs that must be borne by today's students. t® FIRST VALLEY BANK HAZLETON - FREELAND MEMBER FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION Tampa, Fla.

Other 1979-80 highlights includ ed the men's basketball team's progress from six games under .500 (12-18) in 1978-79 to eight games over .500 (18-10), the most dramatic improvement in 83 years of Penn State basketball history, in addition to an NIT ap pearance; Larry Mangan's 3:58.4 clocking in the mile, Penn State's first sub-four minute mile, and Candy Finn and Lynn Thompson competing on the U.S. women's lacrosse team and scoring winn ing goals in games against England, recognized as the best team in the world. Although most Penn State students have already paid their Fall term bills to the University, many Penn Staters may have overlooked the increase in the cost of tuition which occurred. Tuition for undergraduate students attending Com monwealth campuses rose to $476 for this term. For under graduates at University Park, tuition costs equalled $547. Last year, the figures for tuition were $427 and $495, respectively. The change was due to last year's approval of a 10.5 percent tuition increase by the University Board PLACE A WANT AD!

"My purpose in doing so," says Officer Stefanowicz, "is to inform students, rather than frighten them, and to make them aware of their responsibility to know the campus parking rules." There are two student parking lots (Lots A and B), and students must have their vehicles registered with the college in order to park in those lots. Due to the over-abundance of students wishing to park on campus this year, it is sometimes necessary to have them park adjacent to the Physical Education Building. "It should be noted, however, that students may only proceed past Lot A at the direction of an officer and, once parked, may only move their cars when leaving," says Officer Stefanowicz. Robert Stoffa, and Daniel Wolfberg. Mr. Caccese sees Ogontz, from Philly, as the toughest league op ponent. When asked about for midable opposition outside of the league the coach quickly men tioned N. Hampton Corn. Coll., LCCC (perennial Penna. Com. Coll. champions), and Keystone Junior Coll. All three of these non-league foes will be en countered in home games. Concerning home games, the McDonalds Penn State Hazleton Basketball Sweepstakes will once again be run this year. First prize will probably be a trip to Las Vegas. Look for further details in forthcoming issues of THE Some confusion exists as to which parking and roadway signs should be followed and exactly what they mean. Officer Stefanowicz says that it is impor tant to take all signs related to parking and driving at "face value." "For instance," he states, "no student should drive beyond a sign which reads 'Only Authorized Vehicles Beyond This Point' unless he has a special per mit issued from the Business Of fice to do so." Likewise, students must park in Lot B when Lot A is filled, as posted at the entrance of Lot B. Officer Stefanowicz says that students having any questions about parking and driving regulations may see him at his of fice in the Maintenance-Security Building. Also, a complete listing of campus parking regulations and their violations, including fines, can be obtained at the Business Office. TEL.
