New._.group

vote
Just weeks before the 1984
presidential election,. a group ~f
Marist students have formed a
chapter
of
The
Young
Republicans on campus.
The organization was founded
by junior Andrew Crecca and
senior Greg Luna this semester
although planning began last spr-
ing.
The primary concern of the
group, according to Crecca and
Luna, is to inform students about
the upcoming elections.
The club will hold a voter-
registration drive, both on
.
and
off campus. The main purpose of
the drive, according to Crecca, is
to get students involved.
"We're trying to generate some
student interest in the election and
get everyone geared
toward
voting," Crecca said.
The Young Republicans also
plan to conduct a campus poll.
The functions of the poll will be
to find out who the students are
supporting,
to learn
where
students and faculty stand on cer-
tain issues, to see how many
potential voters are registered and
to recruit new members into the
club .
. In meetings last week, Crecca
said, "We set our goals and ob-
jectives -
we found out what we
·
are going to do, when we're going
to do it, and how we are going to
do it."
The group will sponsor an elec-
tion '84 mixer scheduled for
November 3. The decorations wiJI

Sadowski received his master's .
degree at Syracuse University and
his doctorate at the University of
Iowa. He taught at Florida Atlan-
tic University and also at the
University of Maryland. He was
appointed
by. the late Senator
Philip Hart of Michigan to a
senate . subcommittee
to
in-
vestigate
anti-trusts
and
monopolies.
He was also instrumental in set-
ting
up a telecommunication
system for the Houston Indepen-
dent School System. He worked
at KUHT in Houston, a public
broadcasting system station, as a
producer of public affairs.
Sadowski said that he feels he
was hired to bring in new ideas
and to change things. He wants to
do just that, he said. He expressed
a major concern for the on-time
completion of Lowell Thomas. "I
didn't · leave my good job in
Houston to push paper around,"
Sadowski said.
Sadowski also wants Marist to ·
develop graduate programs offer-
ing either MS's or MA's
in
telecommunications
and
other
· similarly growing fields.
"The· communications field is
growing so big, so fast and Marist
is going to have to keep up,"
Sadowski said.
He said that Marist needs to ex-
tend itself past the banks of the
Hudson River.
According to Sadowski, Marist
students would greatly benefit by
having more connections with the
outside world, such as chapter
membership
in
professional
societies. He said that the ex-
posure to the business world
would be a tremendous plus for a
student.

so anxious to get down to

2 chosen to fill CSL posts
by
Douglas Dutton
Sophomore Karen Chatterton
and junior . Ron Young have
become official presidents of their
Council
of
Student
Leaders'
organizations after running unop-
posed in this week's special elec-
·tions.
Chatterton is taking over the
role of president of the Inter-
House
Council · (IHC),
while
Young has assumed the presiden-
cy of the Commuter Union (CU).
Both Chatterton
and Young
have been serving as acting
· presidents .. of. their groups since
early
this
semester
when
sophomore Paul Moran .. resigned
. his post as IHC president and
senior Darryl lmperati gave up his
job as CU president.
Chatterton
and Young were
both appointed vice-president of
their
groups
by the
elected
presidents after last spring's CSL
elections.
Chatterton
said she will ap-
point Karol Pawlak to be the
IHC's new vice-president, Teresa
Lantos and Jeanne Sullivan as
secretaries,
Jill
Nevers
as
treasurer
and Mike Lang as
parliamentarian.
Young said he will appoint
Harry Carleton as vice-presid!!nt
of the CU. At press time, a deci-
sion was still pending for the posi-
tion of treasurer and the secretary
spot was still open.
Chatterton, in her second year
as an active member of the IHC,
said
that
although
she was
somewhat.
disheartened
by
Moran's resignation,
she was
never really nervous about her
role as acting president or her new
job as germanent president for
the year.
"I · felt like everything was
thrown at me," she said, "but I
just accepted it and started work-
ing."
Her major goal as president
this year, she said, was to con-
tinue the work Mark Zangari, last
year's IHC president, did to
"unify
all
Marist
resident
students," with special emphasis
on resident students living in the
Manchester,
Heritage
and
Canterbury Garden apartments.
"Mark got the campus organiz-
ed," Chatterton said.
"I
want to
organize
off-campus
residents
and,
if
things go well, work with
commuters, also."
One of her ideas for helping
resident students in off-campus
apartments is to perhaps organize
Marist vans for shopping trips
from the apartments.
She also emphasized that any
complaints students have about
housing -
including maintenance
-
can be brought to her, and that
she would send them through the
proper channels.
Young, a business/marketing
major, was the CU's public rela-
tions committee. head last year
and said he has been active in the
club since coming to Marist. He
said he was "disappointed"
when.
he heard of lmperati's
resigna-
tion, but that his transition into
the presidency was not difficult at
all.
"Darryl gave a lot to the CU,"
Young said_. "Everything
was
well-organized and Darryl is still
a very active member, so I've had
no problems."
Young said his main job as CU
president is to get all commuters
involved on campus, he wants to
build the CU into one of the more
influential clubs on campus as his
personal goal for the year.
"Commuters
make up one-
third of the Marist community,"
he said, "with more involvement
from them, we could be one of the
best clubs on campus."
Young said that one positive
point for commuters this year has
been the move of the commuter
lounge in Donnelly Hall. The new
lounge has windows and more
space than the room used in the
past.

producing recovery. The rise in
the Gross National Product from
6.2 percent in 1983 and 7.2
percent in the first quarter of 1984
promises to provide more em-

'without raising taxes.
· When Ronald Reagan was
sworn into office in 1981, - he
steppd into a position that
inherited the responsibility of
maintaining a country with a
devastated economy that had
stopped growing. In May 1979 the
unemployment rate was at
5.6
percent. Before the end of 1980 it
had jumped to 7
.5
percent and by
the time the first part of Reagan's
economic plan could be initiated,
in October 1981 unemployment
had grown to 7 .9 percent. The
high tax, high inflation, and high
interest rates that were a result of
the previous administration had
severely
damaged
the
U.S.
economy. The economic failure
that
continued · after
Reagan
assumed office could not be
headed off before the President's
recovery program was in plac~.
The economy was thus saddled
with a deep recession rooted in the
failed policies of the past. The
fact that the economic trouble did
not
escalate until the Car-
ter/Mondale administration was
well established makes it evident
that they themselves brought it
uoon the country with their ill-
pianned policies.
However,
since November
1982, when the 1979-82 recession
ended, a record 4.9 million
Americans found jobs. More
American are working now then
ever before in history. Unem-
ployment fell from 10;6 percent in
December 1982 to 7.7 percent in
February
1984 -
the sharpest
drop since 1950. In addition,
there are more jobs now in most
sectors of the economy, including
200,000
new jobs in the auto
industry,
400,000 new con-
struction jobs and over one
million new jobs in the service
sector.
Can these results really be
debated? Now is the time to ask
yourself: Are you better off now
then you were four years ago,
how about eight years? The
Democrats are still trying to
convince America we were better
under Carter and Mondale. Were
we really? It seems obvious we
cannot afford another four years
of Walter Mondale in the White
House. The clear and best choice
in 1984 is Ronald Reagan and
George Bush.

MaiI·biues

John Bakke
Most of the·mail I receive from
Marist,
'I
throw out. This is not
because of any particular malice
toward Marist, but rather out of a
need to dispose of most of my
mail as soon as I get it.
Why?
When
you
have
subscribed to as many magazines
and ordered from as many mail-
order firms and written for as
m'uch through-the-mail stuff as I
have, you most assuredly are on
inany, many mailing lists. And
you get large amounts of trash. In
short, what I have found to be the
most effective way of dealing with
this is to identify what is vital and
what is not. The vital stays, the
not does not.
·
So it goes with envelopes of all
sizes, and from various depart-
ments, offices, clubs, etc. within
the confines of Marist.
It would
seem, if frequency is to be any in-
dicator, that anyone here with
envelopes and a postage machine,
uses them.
·
My Marist mail service, if I
may generalize a bit, any one of
three purposes: to inform, to de-
mand, or to beg. (Let me note
here, to avoid confusion, that
there are the sender's purposes.
Most of the stuff serves no pur-
pose whatever of mine, except oc-
casionally to annoy, amuse, or
every so often -
and even to my
·
surprise - to inform.)
Most ofit, I open before throw-
ing out. Usually it is the only way
to know whether to keep it or not.·
On occasion, I will know ahead of
time what is there, such as when
the bill for tuition comes in early
August. In that case, I can

,

unopened.
(If
they really want the
cash that badly, l reason, they'll
send me another. They do.)
Invoices from the business of-
fice
fall
into
the
demand
category. They get right at the
issue, no screwing around -
you
owe us, so
pay.
The other
categories are less well defined.
The inform_ group includes such
things as notices of upcoming
events, school year calendars, in-
vitations (rare) and newsletters.
The Commuter
Union Board
sends me a newsletter. It falls into
my
"temporary
retention"
category -
I always read it, then
I always throw it out.
Some correspondence covers
two categories. It used to be that
Dean's
Convocation
notices
straddled the
inform and demand
line quite well, informing you
about the event while demanding
your attendance. The demand has
gone out of convocation lately -
a sad development,
to me,
because
I no longer get the letter
afterward notifying me that
I
was
not, in fact, there. Those never
took me by surprise
(I
knew all
along where I had been that mor-
ning) but they did fill my
"amuse" category nicely.
Every so often (meaning not
very often, really)
I get what must
rightfully be called an actual let-
ter, a bona fide piece of cor-
respondence from someone. That
is,
it
was produced in the slow
rolling of a typewriter platen, in-
stead of the quick mashing and
spitting

machine. And it was signed, in a
separate process, by whoever is

it.
These are called letters; close

addressed to me, and not to "Stu-
dent"

parents who name their children
"Student"
or "Senior."
I sup-
pose it's parents such as those
who are found butchered one fine
morning at the hands of little
Senior, who has hated them from
the start. However should young
Mr. Class escape punishment for
this crime, he will liktly not be
enrolled at Marist so
I
cannot
understand why I would get his
mail.)
·
To remain on the point, these
letters, refreshing as they may be,
are not usually very important
either, but they run at a higher
percentage
of importance than the
others. The other nice thing is that
they can be identified easily:
Look at the address on the
envelope. Is it typed on or is it
simply a label, produced en masse
with (in my case) all the other
B's?
If
it's typed, the contents
stand
a much better chance of be-
ing o_f importance.
The final category
is
begging.
These letters are not addressed to
me personally, currently, but to
_my parents.
l
have no doubt,
though,
that
after
I have
graduated the college will begin
begging (soliciting, I should say)
me just as they do my parents.
But I know it's Mom and Dad
they're after now because the
label on the envelopes say "To the
parents of:" on the line just above
my name and address. Except for
"To the parents of:" the label is
the same as the one used to in-
form me of mixers
·and
weenie
roasts and so forth.
And that is why even these vital
solicitations miss their mark, l in-
troduce my parents infrequently;
however,
when the
situation
arises, I do not say, "I don't
believe you know my. mother and
.father.
These are The Parents of
John Bakke."
If
I did, people
probably would not understand,
would not invite me back, and
would serve the cheap stuff if they
did. That is, except at Marist,
where that introduction might be
answered with, "Ah, yes, The
Parents of John Bakke. You got
my letter?"

The Friends of Marist will once
again be accepting proposals for
recipients of the funds raised
from the Fourth Annual Friends
of Marist Flea Market to be held
Saturday, February 16 in- the
James J. McCann Recreational
Center from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The

date
is Sunday,

Last year, Campus Ministry,
the Commuter Union arid the
Marist Cheerleaders were chosen
to receive the proceeds from the
Flea Market.
Campus
Ministry
used the
money to assist in sending Marist
students to West Virginia to work
with the underprivileged.
The
Commuter Union was able to
refurbish the Commuter Union
lounge in Donnelly Hall with the
money they received, while the
Marist College Cheerleaders used
their share of the funds to pur-
chase new uniforms.
In the past, the group has
donated proceeds to the Circle,

"It was just one of those
days," said Marist Coach Steve
Lauie after his cross country
team's disappointing finish last
Friday at Van Cortlandt Park in
the Bronx.
·
The Red Fox harriers placed
last against a field of Manhattan
Fordham, Southern Connecticut:
and Columbia. Scored as a series
of dual meets, it was Marist on
the losing side 15-50 against
Southern Connecticut, Fordham,
·
and Columbia, and 15-46 against
Manhattan.
Freshman Steve Brennan led
Marist with a time of 28:01 and
was 30th in the field. Richard
Bowne was second for Marist and
34th in the field. Rounding out
the top seven for Marist were
Glen Middleton 35th, 28:11; Mike
Mueller 45th, 28:32; Mike Mur-
phy, running in his first-race of
the season, 55th, 29:09; Richard
Hankey
57th,
29: 19
and
.
Christopher Coyle 60th, 29:40.
Pete Pazik and Don Reardon
did not run in the meet, resting up
for tomorrow's meet at Notre
Dame. Garrett Ryan and Chris-
tian Morrison did not finish.
"We had two weeks o( pretty
.
good effort," said Lurie; uut Fri-
day things didn't work out at
all."
.
The squad will travel to Notre
·
Dame tomorrow to run at the Na-
tional Catholic Invitational for
the fourth time. Representing
Marist will be Pete Pazik, Don
Reardon, Mike Mueller,
·
Chris-
tian Morrison, Steve Brennan,
Richard Bowner, Glen Middleton
and Kevin Schulz as alternate.
"We are a much better team
whether our place shows it or
not," said Lurie. "Our score will
not be as representative now as it
will be in the future. Chances are
that we will not finish in the top
half of Division One."

Marist -sophomore quarterback Jim Fedigan
will miss tomorrow night's game at Iona after
suffering a thumb injury during the Red Foxes 8-
7 Ioss to St. John's University last Saturday.
· Fedigan played the majority of the second half
against the Redmen after sustaining the injury,
which was thought to be a bad sprain. The
seriousness of the injury and the length of time
Fedigan will be sidelined is currently unknown.
·
Marist Head Coach Mike Malet will choose
either sophomore quarterback Dean Tamburri or
. junior defensive back Jim Van Cura to replace
Fedigan in tomorrow night's clash with the
Gaels.

Tamburri, who has virtually no experience, has
also had injury problems this week:- The
Marlboro, N.Y. r·esident has been hindered by a
twisted knee, but is · expected to be ready by
gametime.
"Dean has had the knee problem on and off,"
Malet said. "But he'll suit-up and be able to
play."
Van Cura, a quarterback in his high school
days, is being shifted over from the defense where
he has been a three-year starter at cornerback.
Thejunior did originally come to Marist with the
intention to play quarterback, but he was con-
verted into a defen~ive back earl)' in his freshman
year.
"It's for the good of the team and I'll do all I
can to contribute," Van Cura said. "Coach
Malet is trying to simplify the offense for me so I
can learn as much as possible.''
