Congressman Dow opened his
lecture by stating that the United
States has much to be desired in
its foreign relations.
As a
Congressman, Mr.· Dow had the
opportunity to visit many
of
these
developing countries and
,
had
observed three common aspects
in all of them. The Congressman
felt that all these people are
seeking: economic development;
liberation from the bonds
of
tyra11ny; and,
most
importantly,

the case in Viet Nam; and the
continued use and funding of the
A.I.D. program, which provides
military and economic aid for

that the United States should get

The annual CUB elections are complete and after a week of less than

Race
Problems
One of the most salient, yet most ignored problems here at Marist
College is the problem of race. The rift between blacks and whites is a
rift that faculty students, and administration would do well to con-
sider. Commwlication between the races
has
been poor, to say the
least. Some may argue that fruitful communications are impossible
either because of S>me deep cultural disjunction, or because of some
factorparticular to Marist College. Certainly, the sequestration of the
races, with blacks in Benoit and whites in all the other dorms poses an
unmistakeable barrier to
·dialogue.
•
•
There can be no doubt that there is a reason for that barrier, a
reason that perhaps Marist's black students could
•
make clear to
whites. Whites and blacks alike should, at least for the moment, drop
all notions of culpability and·engage in a frank exchange with one
another. Stop mincing words! Tackle, if you can, the delicate
questions of race relations on the Marist campus, the questions of
financial aid, of residence policies, of poor versus middle class.

It all started on Registration
Day in
1969,
my freshman year.
After standing in lengthy lines in
hopes of registering, I was in-
formed that I was required to
first pay the tuition fees. I
presented a notice from the New
York State Regents Scholarship
Center acknowledging that it
would provide enough funds to
cover the tuition. I was allowed to
register once again only to find
that. two weeks later I was
deleted from my courses. The
secretary in the Business Office
explained that it took time to
process the notification of my
award.

another

Last week I sent letters out to

As

admit that the effectiveness of
the Student Academic Committee

Commuters And
Space· Planning
Recently the Space Committee
met and discussed possible long-
ranged goals concerning space
utilization on Marist Campus.
Some
of
those
proposals
discussed
were moving the
Donnelly Library into Fontain,
moving the computer center into
Donnelly, and moving main-
tenance office into Fontain. One
especially important point which
was brought up was a proposal to
move the present Commuter
Lounge into the librarians office
1across from Donnelly library).
Aside from the fact that the
Commuter Union has put time
and effort in renovating the
lounge, it is easy to see that there
are other difficulties to be found.'
In terms of size and atmosphere,
this new location cannot compare
with its present location. The size
of the proposed location is con•
siderably smaller than that of the
present lounge. This would not
·only decrease
the possible
number of people that can occupy
it but would take away from the
_atmosphere
of a "lounge";
another difficulty being the lack
of windows in the new proposed
location.
The Commuter Union has
contributed much to the present
condition of the lounge and we
feel that the "'Space Committee"
should take a closer look at the
possible disadvantage sighted
above.
Commuter Union
Recycling
Over the past two years, the
United States as a nation has
imported more than she has
exported. Two major factors
which contributed to this were
the import-export ratio of non-
ferous base metals, and paper
and manufactures. In the fiscal
year of 1970 America imported
1,087 million dollars worth of
paper and manufactures, while
•
exporting only 622 million dollars
worth of them. At that rate in the
fiscal year of 1970, America
imported 465 million dollars more
worth of paper and manufactures
than she exported. In the fiscal
year of 1971 America imported
1,157 million dollars more worth
of paper and manufactures, while
in that same year she only ex-
ported 893 million dollars worth
of them. At that rate in the fiscal
year of 1971, America imported
264 million dollars more worth of
paper and manufactures than she
exported. In the fiscal year of
1970 America imported 1,502
million dollars worth of non-
f erous base metal's,. while in that
same year she only exported 893
million dollars worth of these
metals. At that rate in the fiscal
year of 1970 America imported
609 million dollars more worth of
non-ferous base metals than she
exported. In the fiscal year of
1971 America imported 1,432
million dollars
--worth
of non-
ferous base.metals, while in that
same year she only exported 597
million dollars worth of them. At
that rate in th~ fiscal year of 1971
America imported 835 million
dollars more worth of non-ferous
_ base metals then she exported.
The only way I can see
America stopping this imbalance
of trade, is for her to start
recycling projects in this country
and keep them going. When you
think of all the bottles, cans, and
newspapers that are thrown
away without being recycled in
this country, you don't have· to
ask why

trade. What we need to do on this
campus is to set up a system

great thing is that he is always

doubt if we would ever use him
this year in the mile with such

if
we run into trouble
it's always a possibility. I can
seriously see us using him in ten

sprints, long, triple and high

hurdles.

explore the other
