by JOHN DWORAK
Coach
Joseph
Catanzaro
announced
that
crew
will
begin
on February
15th
this
year.
He said
that
all
interested
parties
are
to report
that
day
at
4 PM
to the large
lecture
hall
for
an
organi-
zational
meeting.
It is
·expected
that
30
candidates
will
report
for this
meet-
ing.
In making
the
announcement
the
coach
said
that
the
expanded
schedule
that the crew
has
assumed
ma-kes
this
early
starting
date
a must.
The first
race
will
take place
on April
8th
against
St.
John's
University,
in New
York
City.
This
spring
will mark
the fir
st
real
use of the new shell
which
was-
ac-
quired
in
the fall.
In commenting
on
the
fall
practices,
which
were
tried
for the first
time
this
year,
Catanzaro
said
that he was "pleased
with
the re-
action
of the
students:
and that
he felt
the
sessions
had
served
a very
useful
purpose.
The purpose
of these
were
to acquaint
the new men with the funda-
mentals.
of rowing
and to get them
ac -
customed
to the shells.
This
will speed
up matters
greatly
in the
spring,
when
a very
intensive
training
program
is
undertaken.
In addition
to the shell
the crew
also
has new oars
and new uniforms.
The
uniform
design
was
originated
by the
coach
and members
of the crew.
In making
further
comment
on the
schedule,
the coach
said
that
he
was
disappointed
that
a
home
race
was not
set for
the weekend
tentatively
set
as
Spring
Weekend.
On that
particular
weekend,
May
4,
5 and
6,
the
crew
will
be
in Worcester
to race
in the
Rusty
Callow
Regatta.

International

Island
University,
Clark

and the
seven -meet
schedule
ends with

on the 19th of May.
"If
last
year's
showing
was
any in-
dication
of the
potential
that
crew
has
at Marist,
we
will
definitely
be
some-
thing
to be
reckoned
with
this year,"
said
the
coach.
He pointed
out
that
unlike
last
year,
all

Youth
is a reaching,
questioning,
uncertain
time.
Youth
is the best
time for trial
and error.
Youth is the .time
for
trying
on separate
dreams
until you find one that fits you, and
can
be worn for
ever after,
Many
of us here at Marist
have made our vocational
choice.
We, generally
speaking,
have chosen
t;, teach.
Marist
affords
us a well-~ounded
education
and yet a meager
15% represent
the spil'it of Marist.
Who comprises
this 15%?
The same
15% who will,
in the
future,
have the opportunities
for the better
jobs of their
own
choosing.
Why?
Simply
stated:
These
students
have a truly
well-rounded
education.
They have participated
in extra-curri-
cular
activities
and have labored
to instill
a traditional
spirit
and resounding
ring in the name of Marist.
This editorial
is directed
to the other
85%.
The students
who give a dull,
thudding
echo to the name of Marist.
The
lethargic,
almost
apathetic,
"guys"
you see in the hall,
in
class,
and the one you eat with in the cafeteria.
Not· you;
you
don't have any responsibility.
He's responsible
- responsible
for absolutely
nothing.
Anyone with the slightest
iota of responsibility
will tell you,
and it is rather
pathetic
that a man should have to be told even
once,
that you lack the "initiative"
to throw an empty coffee
cup
into any one of ten receptacles.
The pig pen burned
down
gentlemen!
It's an absolute
disgrace
that the intramural
program
is on
the verge
of collapse.
Why?
Because
you don't have the res-
ponsibility
to participate
once a week,
usually
less,
in the
intramural
program
or an extra-curricular
activity.
And you
aspire
to teach.
You will be responsible
for shaping
the youth
of tomorrow
in the hand of promise
and opportunity.
You won't
even attend
a class
meeting
for your own benefit
and you are
molding
tomorrow,
I have insulted
you and now I issue
you a challenge.
Participate
in some intramural
sport or extra -curricular
activity
if not for Mari st, for yourself.
Perhaps
I shouldn't
call it a challenge,
but rather,
the reawakening
of an opportunity.
It is hard to conceive
personal
betterment
a challenge,
but
indeed,
in such a lethargic
~tmosphere,
it is, paradoxically
enough,
hard to view it as something
other
than a challenge.

To
The Editor:
During the past
serne ster,
two new
sports
were
introduced
at
Marist,
wrestling
and weightlifting.
They
were
met with initial
enthusiasm;
however,
due to limited
facilities
the programs
were
hindered.
At this
time,
we are
pleased
to announce
better
facilities
for
the coming
semester.
The school has purchased
a 32.5 lb.
set of weights and associated
body build-
ing equipment
which has been combined
with our existing
equipment
in the estab.-
lishment
of a weightlifting
gym in the
basement
of St. Mary's.
The gym will
be open to all members
of the student
body on Mondays,
Wednesdays
and Fri-
days from 3:30 to 5:30 P.M.
Although
we would like to train
lifters
for com-
petition,
the main
purpose
of the pro-
gram
is conditioning.
Weightlifting
can be used
either
to
gain
or
lose
weight,
develop
large
and
efficient
muscles,
speed,
power
or
endurance
depending
on the methods
of training.
Programs
will
be tailored
to indivi-
dual needs and desires.
The wrestling
squad
has
acquired
six mats and wrestling
practice
is pro-
gressing
in earnest.
Wrestling,
one of
the most
grueling
of collegiate
sports
develops
a
stamina
and physical
and
mental
agility
which cannot be achieved
by any other
form
of exercise.
We
welcome
any interested
students,
es-
pecially
heavy-weights,
to
attend
a
workout
session,
Tuesday
afternoons
3:30 to 5:30 p.m.

Brother
William
Murphy
has
an-
nounced
that an area
450 by 400 feet is
being leveled
for the construction
of an
athletic
field with facilities
for an Ath-
letic Building.
This
athletic
field
which
would
be
located
south of Donnelly
Hall would in-
clude two soccer
fields
to be used
for
intra-mural
soccer
and football,
soft-
ball,
baseball,
track
and other
sports
at Marist.
Brother
Murphy
also announced
that
soccer
would
begin
informally
in the
fall ofthisyear
withplayers
being
selec-
ted from the intramural
ranks.
By the
fall of 1963 Marist
should have an orga-
nized
intercollegiate
soccer
schedule.
We already
have
scrimmages
lined
up
with Danbury
State
and Bard
for
this
fall,
No coach has yet been named
but
several
of the brothers
with
coaching
experience
will work out with the
pros-
pective
candidates
this fall.

What's
what
1
•
by JOSEPH
MITCHELL
It seems
today
that our foreign
dip-
lomats,
reporters,
and such
are
under
the impression
that the American
public
actually
·thinks that total world
disarma-
ment
is feasible.
( Some
would
have
us
go
to such
lengths
as to
participate
in, or should
I say attempt
to partici-
pate in, disarmament
talks.)
If there
is
a chance
of achieving
total
world
disarmament,
with
proper
controls
and
supervision,
while
having
at
the
same
time
a method
of disarmament
enforcement,
then
a
problem
arises
that
must
be
considered
along
with
the idea
or
should
I say
the
fear
of
disarmament
cheating:
Would
a total
disarming
injure
the
u,'.iited
States?
If so, how?
Having
had
this
question
of
dis -
armament
injury
to the
United
States
put to them,
some
of the
students
of
Marist
had
this
to say:
"The
present
economy
of the U.S.
is fundamentally
one based
on war
pro -
duction.
The
disbanding
of the armed
services
would
thereby
destroy
the
basic
structure
of
our
system.
In
that,
private
industry
would
not be able
to absorb
into jobs
the people
released
by the destruction
of the war
economy.
To counter-act
this problem
the govern-
ment
would have to socialize,
either
by
creating
government
jobs or by directly
subsidizingprivate
industry
which
would
destroy
our
concept
of capitalism
and
our society
as a whole."
M.
Faherty
"Disarmament
would
injure
us
be -
cause
it would put us on the same
level
as
other
countries,
in that
we
would
suffer
a great
loss
of prestige
which
we
cannot
afford.
"
M.
Laffin
"We would
be injured
at home
by
disarmament
economically
because
our major
economy
stabilizer
is arms
production;
and abroad,
due to the loss
of arms
trade
and
American
cultural
influence
that would
ensue."
G. DeWitt
"Total
disarmament
would definitely
injure
us in that
tlie tremendous
Fed-
eral
apending
£or defense
today,
which
is the life preserver
of American
in-
dustry,
would be lost."
Phil Bruno
"It
seems
obvious
to me
that
it
would
end in our
destruction.
Khrus-
hechev
himself
has
openly
proclaimed
his
desire
to bury
us,
and
Mao-Tse
Tung,
has
on
numerous
occasions,
stated
that
he
believes
war
with
the
U.S.
is
inevitable,
and
I
think the
only
thing
deterring
these
two
world
enemies
is our
nuclear
striking
force.

THE
RECORD
Robert
Norman
Gives
"Journalism"
Lecture
On January
16th Mr.
Robert
Nor-
man
discussed
Journalism
and
how it
was
brought
out
in
the
newspaper,
radio
and television.
He showed
how
the old myth of the newspaper
reporter
being
an ill-bred
person
who was
con-
tinually
showing
his
bad manners
was
just
that--only
a myth.
Today
the re-
porter
has
to have
certain
qualifica-
tions
and a personality
for
the job
he
has
undertaken.
He has
to be a man
who
knows
a little
about
everything.
Mr.
Norman
also
said
that
he
should·
not offend
but he should
also
not avoid
controversy.
The first
thing
which
a
reporter
learns
is the usage
and mean-
ing of the
inverted
pyramid,
which
is
like
a funnel
into which
all the news
is
poured
with
the less
important
details
on the bottom
and the main
facts
at the
top.
It is also possible
to cover
all the
questions
of why-who-what-where-which
that
are
so important
to the reporter
and the reader.
The reporter's
real
life
is
one of fast
movement
where he has little
time
to see
his family.
The newspaper
man always
owes his allegiance
to the newspaper
he
works
for and mustoutwardlyaccept
its
policies.
In radio
the reporter
is
faced
with
more
requirements.
He probably
has
about
fifteen
deadlines
to meet
plus
having
to gather,
write
and present
the
material
on the
air.
Education,
says
Mr.
Norman,
is very
important
to the
radio
reporter
today;
he is no longer
the
uneducated
"slob"
who stuck
his
foot
in the door
and
annoyed
many
a
person.
There
are
so many
require-
ments,
such
as
knowing.
some
of the
technical
workings
of the
radio
sta-
tion.
In describing
an
ordinary
day
in the
life
of a radio
r·eporter,
Mr.
Norman
told how he woke
at about
5: 15
go through
the
morning
news
casts
and
finally
around
1:00
PM
he will
go out on his
beat
for
the
news.
He
will
cover
all
types
of stories
from
Se ■ itr Fascllli■I
P1st,11tll
Gary
DePaolo,
Senior
Class
presi-
dent,
announced
last
week that the Sen-
ior
"Fasching"
has
been
postponed.
Due to legal
technicalities
the Germania
Singing
Society
could not obtain
a cater-
ing
permit
from
the
N. Y.S.A.B.C.
Board.·
Without
a
permit
the
club
would be liable
to legal
action
and
con-
sequently
,.vas
forced
to dissolve
their
agreement
with Marist.
A future
date
for
the
senior
dance
has
not
been
set.
Now do you agree
with
any
of our
collegians?
Do you think
that
there
is
a remote
chance
that
we
have
been
reading
articles
about
disarmament
and perhaps
even
experiencing
a little
anxiety
over
these
disarmament
"talks"
for nothing?

OrganizatioM
Meeting
J
rm
Coombs
and
Charlie
Council
have
announced
plans
to form
a Pre-
Legal
Society
on campus.
The purpose
of the society
will be to act primarily
as
an
educational
group
exposing
as
many
facets
as possible
of a career
in
Law.
The first
meeting
of this
organiza-
tion will be held on Wednesday,
Febru-
ary
14th.
This
meeting
is
open
to all
men on campus
who are
even
remotely
interested
in law.
The
agenda
wiil in-
clude a discussion
of the American
As-
sociation
of Law Schools
stated
posi-
tion on the ideal
undergraduate
course
leading
to admittance
in an accredited
law
school.
While
some
thought
has
already
been
given
to the
activity
of
the group
which
will probably
include
lectures
by local
attorneys
and repre
-
sentatives
of various
law schools
on the
east
coast,
definite
plans
will be begun
on Wednesday.
All men who have an interest
in law
or who are as yet vocationally
uncertain
are urged
to attend
this
meeting
and to
become
a part
of the society.

gathering
news far into the night.
Probably
one of the
most
difficult
mediums
for
a reporter
to
·work
in is
television
because
here
sight
and
sound
must
be coordinated-with
station
policy.
The staff
of a television
news
show
is
usually
1
quite large
to achieve
this coor-
dination.
The reporter,
to write
a good
story
must
take the fact
and be able
to eva-
luate
what
is
important.
He
gets
to
know
human
nature
and
learns
the
different
personalities
with
which
he
must
associate.
In ending
the lecture
Mr.
Norman
said,
"A reporter
may be-
come
very
cynical
and yet he is
thank-
ful for the people
he meets
who make
it
quite
worth
'being
a reporter"'·

In
the
second.five
minute
overtime
the
Drug-
gistS'
pulled
away
and
the Marist
Five
could
not
come
back
before
the
final
buzzer
sounded.
The first
half played
in the
cracker
box gym was highlighted
by the fact that
there
was only one referee
•. The Foxes
took a quick
lead and led by as much
as
seven
points
midway
through
the
half
but the Pharmacists
called
and the lead
jumped
back and forth
with A. C. P.
on
top of a 31-28
score
at halftime.
In the second
half Albany
opened
up
a lead and were
out in front
by eleven
at one point
and led
by
five
with
four
minutes
left.
The Foxes
put on a press
which
caused
the departure
of forward
Dave
Flynn
due to fouls.
With
seven
seconds
left
and Marist
down
by two,
Did
YOU
Fred
Weiss
was
fouled
in the
act
of
shooting
and
awarded
two
shots.
He
swished
in tl~e first
one
and
stopped
many
heartbeats
as
the
second
one
bounced
around
the
rim
and
finally
dropped
through.
John
Romeo
inter-
cepted
an Albany
pass
with time
all but
run out and the buzzer
sounded
with
the
score
knotted
at
64
up.
