LETTERS
TO THE
EDITOR,
l
In
Response ...
The following letter was received from Associate Professor of
French,
Edward Germann, in response to a letter· the Circle
published in its last edition. The editor of the Circle will clarify his
position regarding this matter in the next edition of the paper, which
is due to appear on Monday ..
Dear Sir:
Reluctant though
I may be to request the hospitality of your
columns again, so soon after your issue of 13 February, I feel
obliged to comment on an item which soiled pages
2
and
6
of your
issue of 20 February 1969.
It purports to be a letter from William Deucher, Class of '72, a
student with whom
I have never had any personal contact of any
kind, as far as
I know.· This text is so grotesque both in form and
content that it scarcely warrants notice, aside from the reflection
that it appears to be the product of a vapid mind and strangely
troubled adolescent personality. The fact that the author of this
froth is a Freshman might seem to some, perhaps yourself included,
an extenuating circumstance. But
I must point out that you, as
Editor-in-Chief, are responsible for the contents of your publication.
May
I question your good judgment in accepting to print such an
int~mperate and vulgar outburst and thus sharing the responsibility
for spreading far beyond the immediate confines of the Marist
campus a series of unsupported statements which are libellous? Are
you sufficiently aware of the responsibility which is youis by virtue
of your position?•
Those who know me are aware how ridiculous and unfounded are
the accusations contained in Deucher's letter. lwould be tempted to
ignore them completely, were
it
not for the fact that "The Circle" is
read by many who do not know me nor the ~ampus scene at Marist.
This letter impugns both my professional integrity and my personal
honor. I intend to take all steps necessary to obtain the retraction of
this libel by its author, as well as the apology to which
I
believe
I
am
entitled.
I hope that one positive result of this unfortunate business may be
a greater understanding throughout the Marist community· of the
concept of responsibility, which covers many fields of activity in
addition to attendance at classes.
It
extends to our relations with
others, and even to the way a campus newspaper is managed.
Yours _sincerely,
· Edward H. Germann

The United States National Student Association (NSA) will fight
the.recommendatio.n~ of a Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB) examiner
calling for the abolition of youth fares as "unjustly discriminatocy "
and has retained legal counsel to prepare briefs and oral arguments
for presentation before the CAB.
·
.
The announcement of NSA's action came from Services Division
~irector Alan
c;
Handell, who noted that at.present the Association
1s the only group representing student users of the airline youth fare
which will make arguments before the Federal board.
-
Abolition of yoµth fares is being sought by a number of bus
compani~s.
NSA will
argue that in view of the educational social
economic, and cultural benefits afforded by the youth fa~es and
young adult fares, the fares should not be cancelled.
Written arguments will be presented to the CAB by February 26.
About~ ..
Dear Sir:
I am compelled by common
decency Jo write to protest your
printing of
Mr.
Deucher's letter
regarding one of my colleagues.
As I mdicated in a letter to The
Circle last year, freedom of the
press is not broad enough to
permit this type of character
assasination and smear letter.
I am sure that most students
were appalled at the charges
themselves:
the
shock one
receives is compounded
when
one
realizes that 'the
writer
speaks
from second-hand' or
hear-say · evidence. Evecyone cin
this campus, faculty, students
and administration may be and
should be critically evaluated on
his performance. Policies in the
classroom,
in the dorms or·
anywhere
else may be and
should be open to scrutiny and
criticism. One of the strengths of
Marist
is
that
it
always has been
an open
community
where
anyone is free to raise an issue or
challenge
a policy. However,
there are improper and there are
proper ways of doing this.· .
If
anyone disagrees with a
policy, it seems that he should
confront · the person· responsible
directly. Then, it is policy and
not
with
personalities
that
should be discussed.
I hope that some good may
still come from this tragic abuse
of the press. Perhaps, all of us
will see a bit more clearly that
there ls power in the pen. As it
may
be used
to
attack
a
dedicated teacher, so to, may it
also
be used for a creative
suggestion
o·r a intelligent
questioning of policy.
It
is_ my
hope . that in the future as so
often in the past, The Circle will
see its purpose as a constructive
one.

21 Februacy, 1969
Dear Sir:
I would like to comment upon
the
letter
by Mr. William
Deucher which appeared in the
February
20 edition of the
Circle, and in which he seems to
have attempted to objectify the
cause
of various
student
frustrations into the personage
· of Mr. Edward Germann.
-
The letter not only speaks
poorly of the author's ability to
offer his readers useful criticism
(if indeed that was his intent),
but has a pejoritive effect upon
his case, such that, in the final
analysis, it · presents a stronger
condemnation
upon
Mr.
Deucher than it does upon the
accused Mr. Germann .. ·
In other words, the letter
reeks with "air pollution," lack
of professionalism,
etc., and
other characteristics which Mr.
Deucher levels as indictments
against Mr. Germann.
Speaking
of more specific
items, not every student of Mr.
Germann finds himself, upon
entering the course, predestined
to receive a failing grade; as the
author would have one believe. I

A poet

understand the changing times.
While the student generation has
changed,
our
concepts
of

have
remained

demand
our

in our

Rather than present you with a

- The

potentially
one of the major

of the participating schools offer

Committee - The A.P .C. is a
relatively new committee
but
has thus

successful. I believe every step
should be taken to insure the

The
Student

sounding board for the A.P.C. in

requirements,

IV)
Athletics
- The new
student
government
should
definitely
take an immediate
interest in aid to the athletic
endeavors on campus. At the
present time, money is a major
problem for almost all campus
sports. The athlets themselves
should not have to worry about
raising
needed
funds.
A
committee would be set up to
handle fund-raising activities for
any sport in financial difficulty.
This would help the players to
devote more time to their sport,

Mr.

a survey,
Tuesday,

concerning
the
·future
of
Communication Arts at Marist.
The survey involved a random
sampling of 250 students during
Tuesday's lunch period.
Questions
covered by the
survey included the possibilities
of a Communication Arts major
and an increase in the elective
Communication
offerings at
Marist. The question of whether
a minor
in communications
could be initiated
if
a major was
not approved was also exploited.
An overwhelming

of those
students
sampled were in favor of a

major. Ninety
four percent favored an increase
in the elective Communications
_ offerings. Of those who favored
an increase in electives, the
desire
o·f concentration
was
spread evenly among Journalism,
Radio and Television, and Public
Relations. The same percentage,
ninety,
who
favored
a
Communications
major also
would choose to have a rni.rior in
Communication Arts
if
a major
was not initiated.
In
·provoking
the desire for
comments on the program, Mr.
Norman received a barage of
statements that reoccurred. Most
frequent was the opinion that
Communications
is becoming
increasingly more. important in
our advanced society. The role
of Communication
Arts in a
Liberal Arts school, and the
prestige of being one of the first
schools
to initiate
such a
program, were other comments
that frequently occurred.
The Communication program
at Marist will be studied in depth
with regards to its possibilities
and assets. To date no particular
conclusions have been reached
and the Communication
Arts
program is open to suggestion._

Aid
Cits
Washington (CPS) - President·
S.
I.
Hayakawa of San Francisco.
State• College told the House
higher education subcommittee
last week that withdrawal of·
federal
financial·
aid from·
disruptive students should
·
be a'
prerogative of individual school
administrations,
not
a
requirement set by Congress.
Asked
by subcommittee
chairman Edith Green (D-Ore.)
if he thinks "revolutionaries"
have a right to expect financial
_assistance
from "the society
they
seek
to destroy,"
Dr."
Hayakawa said no. But he added
that "there are difficulties · in
applying this principle."
The
testimony
concerns
amendments to higher education
legislation enacted by the last
Congress
that
require
a
university to cut off federal
loans and grants to students and
teachers convicted of .a crime
involving
use
of
force,
disruption, or seizure of school
property.
Some educators have criticized
the amendments because they
subtract from· an institutions's
atitomony in dealing with its
students and because they are
unfair to the less-affluent. And,
since the Department of Health,
Education and Welfare and the
Office of Education
have been
ambivalent about enforcing the
new-
provisions,
• college
administrators have experienced
the ·"difficulties" Dr. Hayakawa
mentioned:

·
Mrs. Green, who has favored
mandatory
aid
cutoff,
acknowledged
that
implementation of the policies
has not followed Congressional
intent.
"We
may have to
straighten this cut,'' she said.
Hayakawa also outlined the
situation on his campus, now
between semesters but recently
under strike by white and black
militants and under police guard. ·
Restoring order is only the
first
step in solving campus
unrest, Hayakawa said. "Several
.
things must be accomplished if
we are to end the current trend
toward
confrontation
and
violence. We must reassess many
of ouf educational objectives
and administrative systems. We
must modernize quickly and on
a vast scale to make the entire
system more responsive to the
times and to the needs of our
young. people.'.
Discipline
should
be in the hands of
students and faculty, he added.
"In
a sense, the· issues behind
most present troubles are valid."

o~elves.
The Oneonta team wasn't very good but they were
opportunists. They husteld their butts off from the opening tap to
the· final whistle. They capitalized on all our mistakes, of which
!here were many.

Saturday ... Phil Cappio, F.M.S.,
was very impressive in
his

outing
since

season • he was pacing the mile
very relaxed and had plenty left
as he blasted
his
final quarter in
63. He also looked good in th"e
2-mile which he won by more
than a lap in 10:24.6 and it
seemed like he would have even
done well
if
he had tried the 880
leg in the 2-mile relay. It's
amazing how he can hit these
times just training on the r')ads -
With some good track work and

score to win the,game,
2-1.
Throughout his tenure Dennis
had his share of both personal
victories and defeats. In the
Bloomfield
game that year,
Dennis had two good shots at
the goal, which could have tied
the score, but one was blocked
and the other he put over the
net. All that summer, Dennis
trained with the one thing in his
mind being to beat Bloomfield
next year. In his Senior year,
V~rnoia had his best season,
scoring
5
goals and assisting on,··
six more. When the Bloomfield
game
arrived,
Dennis found
himself in the same situation
again with two qpen shots and
again the first one was blocked.
With his second chance, Dennis
remembered the year before,
and this time he used his instep
shot and aimed for the corner of
the net - but all his hopes fell
through as the ball was wide by
inches.
Besides soccer, Dennis has
contributed greatly to the realm
of Marist track. In fact,he singles
