news Club re o ort RTC by Michele Grasmick Collegian Staff Writer On Saturday, Oct. 3rd, ROTC Behrend Cadets attended the first Lead Lab of the semester. A Lead Lab is an all day event, in which all ROTC cadets participate in order to receive valuable military train ing, get to know other ROTC cadets, and just have a good time. The Lead Lab on this particular Saturday was titled "Soggy Bot tom," where ROTC Cadre planned a canoeing trip at Presque Isle and First Aid classes. Unfortunately, due to the extremely cold temperature, the canoeing portion of the Lead Lab was cancelled. In stead, the cadets were broken down into their respective platoons and received instruction on uniform wear and care, and First Aid. This was the first military experience for the majority of the cadets, and it proved to be invaluable training. The ROTC cadets got a taste of cahin of command, movenments as a platoon, and the essence of military instruction. Though the cadets were disappointed about the canoeing cancellation, they still had a good time.

A dive is being planned in one of the lakes Rangers by James Gavrilis Contributing Writer Monday night, October sth, the Rangers pushed on. At the Lawrence Park Rifle Range, the Rangers trained intensively in mountaineering and 'rifle markmanship. The rifle range was run by specialist John Moscato, who did an outstanding job of get ting all the Rangers through the range in the short time that was available. The Rangers also prac ticed on the one rope bridge. With the help of the Lawrence Park Fire Dept., who provided lighting, the Rangers were able to practice rapelling and belaying well past dark. The Rangers rapelled down the sides of the three story tower that the fire dept. uses for various training excercises. On Oct. 17th, the Rangers will be involved in set= ting up the site for the Rapelling Lead Lab to be held the same day. For the story on the Lead Lab itself, look in the next issue of the Collegian. Rape, cont. from 1 1. Communicate your needs and wishes clearly 2. Use common sense when dating 3. Know what to do to help vic tims (or yourself) of date rape ' 4. Report any instances of sexual assault The best way to fight date rape is by educating men to respect women and fort he woman to fight back. The first step in this education is to acknowledge the problem, and set up anti-rape workshops and/or counseling services. Next the law has to be reinforced by establising sexual codes of conduct on college comapuses and state legislation that would allow the rape to be in vestigated even though it was not reported. Communications should be improved so that man and women can identify between "no" as a flirtation and "no" as a strong rejection. If date rape does occur; the victim should tell someone, receive a medical examination as soon as possible; and talk to a counselor about the experience. Remember, awareness and com mon sense are your best weapons against rape of any kind. ed positive, and the cadets learned some practical tasks which may aid the in future endeavors. An awards ceremony was also held during the Oct. 3rd Lead Lab. Awards were given to the following cadets for their participation at Camp All American. From lowest to highest ranking they are: Cal Fryling, Heidi Gebhart (recondo badge), and Craig Paske. Cadet Paske it should be noted is the highest ranking cadet in the, Penn State system.

On the weekend of Oct. 17th, ROTC, has planned a rapelling Lead Lab. During this event, cadets will rapell off of a 70 ft. cliff and a 70 ft. bridge. They will also enjoy a ride in a military helicopter. This is expected to generate a lot of excitement. at a local golf course. At least four divers will be probing the murky dephs for all the golf balls they can find. Any golfers out there, this is a good tithe to pick up some fine golf balls for a very modest price. Qn the underwater scene, we have made a few dives in the past two weeks. The first one, a dive in to Lake Chautauqua in New York, divers went off of the shore to discover old bottles, boat 'anchors, and plenty of lake muscles. The visibility in the • lake was poor because, of an algae bloom . that took place a few weeks before. Most of to divers were pleased with lake and the time it took to get there. The other dive was a boat dive into Lake Erie. Most found fishing lures and old golf balls in the depths of the lake. The visibili ty wasn't the best, but all of the divers came to the surface with a better understanding of their own diving skills. The Scuba Club holds a weekly meeting at 5:30 every Wednesday in the ROTC office and is open to all Behrend students who are cer tified divers.
