Looking for
A Job?
By Colleen Kelly
So you want to be an editor! It’s really
not that hard, and yet, it’s really not
- that easy. You have to be aggressive,
have the patience of a saint, have 50
spare hours a day, be able to write all the
articles that weren't turned in, and pro-
duce at least one paper a semester. After
you take on the hard work and painstak-
ing hours of producing the periodical,
you must have a good sense of humor
when everyone says, ‘Oh, this must be
the paper that comes out once a
semester!”
Seriously, it’s not all that bad. I cer-
tainly didn’t have 50 spare hours a day,
in fact, I worked the paper around
school and work. If any of you know me,
you know I'm not patient. The point is,
you really only need to be loval and op-
timistic to get a paper out . . . with or
without a staff.
There are many good. writers out
there, proven by the great outcome of
the personals this semester. An editor
must be able to convince others that
they can write if they only try.
For all the trials and tribulations of
putting out a newspaper, the rewards
are great when you hear someone say,
“Did you read the Lion’s Eye? There's a
really good article in there.”

staff of this great paper, simply see An-

Eugene
Neal
By Kevin Kane
In January, our campus was visited
by an amazing individual. His name was
Eugene Neal and we wish to thank him
for putting on a great show. Although he
is famous for his ability to hypnotize
people, those who had the pleasure of
watching his show realize that he per-
formed other incredible feats as well as
hypnotizing some of our students. Some
of these were: bending solid steel nails,
interlocking rings, and reading peoples’
thoughts.
. I thought his show was incredible and
I wanted to know how other students
felt about it. I went around campus and
interviewed several of you to get some of
your opinions. Here's what I found:
Students Comments
Rob Favario, ‘“F-king Excellent”;
Kim Delaney, “O.K. but didn’t seem
real’; Dan Antonelli, “It was out-
rageous.’’
Other students had the following com-
ments:
Kelly McBride: 1t’s not something you
see everyday.”
Dave Vinci: “It jammed big-time.”
Julie Romanelli: “He was impressive.”’
Harvey Robertson: “Very good but not
long enough, very Las Vegas’.
Mike Robb: “I thought it was one of the
most mind boggling things I ever
saw’.
Mike McLaughlin: ‘‘1t wasn’t as good as
last year’.
Steve Desantis: ‘It was pretty wild”.
Denise Childeress: ‘‘Being hypnotized
was an extraordinary experience for
me’.
Jill Distefano:
drawn out’.
“It was too long and

Let’s
Do
Lunch
By Jim Higgins
Recently, the Lion’s Eye survey com-
mittee conducted some very interesting
research.
“We wished to find out where the
average Penn State, Delaware County
Campus student went for lunch. And,
after hours of painstaking research we
discovered that you, the average Penn
Stater picked Sbarros Restaurant (pro-
nounced Sbarrowse) as your favorite lun-
chtime eatery.
Sbarros, located in the Granite Run
Mall, serves up a fast-food menu that of-
fers a slow-cooked taste. They feature
salads and soups, along with the Italian
-favorites, calzones, lasagna, and of
course the staple food of all growing col-
lege students — pizza.
Sbarros pizza made the difference in
the survey. Considered by nutrition ex-
perts (namely, my friends and me) to be
an excellent combination of the four:
basic food groups, a slice of Sbarros’
pepperoni or sausage ‘‘z
hungry student with a filling meal at a
reasonable price. Included on such a
slice are the meat group (the spicy
sausage or pepperoni), the vegetable
group (the sweet tomato sauce, or
gravy), the bread and cereal group (the,
crispy crust), and finally the dairy group
(the bubbling excess of tangy mozzarella
cheese). Ah yet, such a mouth watering
combination may have the cholesterol-
crazy health nuts in an uproar but as far -
as this survey indicates, you the student
are more concerned with delightful
digestion than with corrosive circula-
tion.
The other dining areas included in the
survey were: our own cafeteria, Scottos
Pizza, Roy Rogers, and Burger King.
The latter three are also in the Granite"
Run Mall. Although the results proved a
close finish, Sbarros came out on top
with 35% of the votes tallied, followed
by Burger King with 20%, and third
place was taken by our cafeteria, featur-
ing Tom, the stand-up chef and comic,
with 17% of the vote. Fourth place was
shared by Scottos and Roy Rogers, ac-
counting for the other 28%.
Sharros, as great an eating spot as the
votes indicate, was not the choice of
every student. There were some critics.
“I can’t handle their salads,” one critic
commented, ‘“‘the dressing goes down
like a shot of tequila!”
Well, with that in mind Sbarros better
tone down the vinegar content or offer a
slice of lemon on the side. Then maybe
that bitter dressing would go down as
easy as a mouth-watering slice of the
famous pizza.

Where Does
All Your
/ Money Go?
By Colleen Kelly
The Lion’s Eye would like to clear up
one of the burning questions in some of
the minds of some of the students here
at Delco. I'm sure all of you noticed the
increase in tuition this semester. If you
think the way that I do, you probably
thought that it was simply another way
of getting money out of us for things
that we never see any benefit. Well, we
at Delco have recieved a large grant for
the good of the students. The Tuition
Differential Student Services Enchance-
ment has sent $2,000.00 for the Lion's
Eye to purchase a comptuer for further
editions. This is proof for me that if your
group or organization needs funds for a
project, the key to receiving them is to
ask. Unfortunately, many students are
unaware of the funds available to them.
Next semester, if you find a project that
you simply do not have enough money
for, ask the Dean if you could be eligible
for these funds.
