[Halld-offline] turn on start counter in geant??

[Craig Bookwalter]

Well when I add these lines of code to my event processor:

        std::vector<const DSCHit*> sc_hits;
        eventLoop->Get(sc_hits);

        std::cout << sc_hits.size() << std::endl;

I get all 0's for output.

I can see the definition for the SC in the top of my HDDM file:

      <startCntr minOccurs="0">
        <stcPaddle maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" sector="int">
          <stcHit dE="float" maxOccurs="unbounded" t="float" />
        </stcPaddle>
        <stcTruthPoint E="float" dEdx="float" maxOccurs="unbounded"
minOccurs="0" phi="float" primary="boolean" ptype="int" px="float"
py="float" pz="float" r="float" sector="int" t="float" track="int"
z="float" />
      </startCntr>

I'm only using like 10 events, but I would assume that every event has at
least one start counter hit. What else could be going on?
