New fire alar~ system installed
By
David Metz
New fire alarm systems valued at
$22,557,
designed to notify both campus
Securitv and outside fire authorities in
event
of
a fire are presently being installed
·
in Benoit and Gregory
·
Houses, and are
planned for the library
,
Fontaine; and Seat
of Wisdom Chapel, according to Director
of Safety and Security Joseph Waters.
The new svstems will be hooked into the
present heat-activated sprinkler systems
in those buildings. When the renovations
.
are completed, the sprinkler system, when
activated, would trigger a horn that will be
heard throughout the building. Eventually,
Security hopes to run a connection to the
.
switch board that would alert Security to
the alarm. This system, according to
Waters, will also contain an "automatic_
dial" that would contact the county alarm
center
.
·
"This system has some good features,"
said Waters, "The alarm will not shut off
until done so manually, and it comes
equipped with a battery pack
,
so even in
the event of a power failure the alarm
would still sound."
Waters added that Fontaine, the library
and the chapel would all eventually be
equipped with th~e systems, but stated
that Benoit and Gregory have top priority.

Menapace added that, "some junior high

Thanks
To the Marist Community,
On this past Sunday, 2-17, a
small group of members of
Marist's chapter of Sigma Phi
Epsilon made a trip to Queens, to
visit the parents of Ambrose
"Bernie"
.
Verlin, the Marist
sophomore who was tragically
killed last
.
semester in an auto
accident. The visit was primarily
to present to the Verlins a framed
certificate, a check for
$500, and
a formal letter of explanation.
The money was raised,
by
us,
with your assistance, at a mixer
in December and the letter ex-
plained the event.
·
Presently, we
·
would like to convey their
gratitude to any and all of the
Marist Community who helped
make the visit as rewarding as it
was. On behalf of the entire
fraternity,
I would like to per-
sonally express my.thanks for the
overwhelming response of the
entire community in that tragic
time of need.

Fraternally,

Presidential hopeful to speak
Don BadJley
by Jim Townsend
Presidential hopeful Donald Badgley of
Poughkeepsie
will
speak
to
the Marist
community tomorrow at
2:30
p.m. in the
Fireside Lounge. The talk is sponsored by
the Political Science club.
Badgley, a retired
61
year old insurance
salesman who is legally blind, says the call
to run for president came from God twelve
years ago. He says all of
his callings came
from God while he slept at night.
Badgley is a candidate in the Republican
primary ballot in
13
states. The first
_
primary that he is entered in is in Kansas
on April
1.
"A year ago I got a call and
.
went to Boston to find out what you needed
to run for president. I found that if you had
recognition through the media you did not
have to have any petitions or pay the filing
fee but each state had different laws. I
paid the $100 filing fee in Kansas so they
can't kick me off the ballot," says
Badgley.
Badgley says he decided to run for
president after the calling from God and
because, as he explained, he has three
sons, aged 25,
21,
and
19
and did not like the
way that the country was going for them.
He felt "That it would
be
wrong for me
if I
did not do anything. The older generation
should be a servant of the younger
generation, not a master."
Badgley feels that it
is
necessary for
"the
country to turn back to the word of
God. The laws have destroyed the coun-
try
.
., Taking examples from the Bible,
Badgley points out that the world was once
run on ten laws given to Moses and in
70
A.D. it was changed to
613.
Badgley say~ it
is the laws which destroyed the Christian
nation and will
.
eventually destroy our
nation .
Badgley has travelled 35,000 miles since
he announced
his candidacy on May 7,
1979.
He says his entire campaign is being
funded by himself. He says he travels
solely by bus and has spent approximately
$3600
in his campaign for the presidency.
Badgley says he will have a woman as
his running mate. He says he was walking
along the road one day and the name of
Shirley Temple Black came into his head
as a running mate. He says he has not
personally contacted her but has sent her
various news stories.
As
he quoted from
Scripture he said, "when it
is
the right
time it will happen."
Badgley feels that by coming to Marist it .
will
be
worthwhile for him because he says
he gets his strength from young people. He
says he found this strength by travelling to
different colleges and feels
that he has
given college students a direction. He says
"I am not in favor of the registration for
the draft, nuclear power or abortion.
T'nere are certainlv other ways of ob-
taining energy and it
is
impossible to
legislate morality on the abortion issue."
Badgley, a tall, thin man, is easily
identifiable as he walks with his long hair
and beard, as well as a five foot staff.
"My
long
hair
represents the strength of
Samson while my staff represents David."
Badgley, who was elected as
.
a
representative to the North Carolma
General Assembly in
1963,
feels that his
entire campaign centers around the words
of the Bible. "Scripture has answers if we
follow
it,"
says Badgley

By Bill Taylor
Many people will remember Ken
Sullivan for the three minutes he played in
the last men's home basketball game. But
little do they know that Ken has been in-
volved in
14
extracurricular activities.
Ken Sullivan, a senior accounting major,
with a minor in economics, has been in-
volved in extracurricular activities such
as Who's Who Among College Students,
member of the Marist College accounting
society, treasurer of the Marist College

As far as Ken's future is concerned, he
wants to stay around the metropolitan
area and get an accounting job in the
private sector. He also wants to go to
graduate school and get
his
masters in
business administration .
Ken jokingly says the campus has gotten
a lot quieter since he and four of his
friends moved off campus. "I recommend
people to move off campus their senior

It
gives students a greater deal of
responsibility of budgeting their time and

"It

Financial
board
to meet
by
Jim
Townsend
The financial board will "hopefully"
have met with all the clubs on campus by
Tuesday to discuss their secondary
allocations says Don Ball, financial board
chairman
.
Six clubs had not met with the financial
board as of Monday and Ball says he has to
meet with all the clubs and discuss their
financial status to determine
if
they are to
receive their secondarv allocations.
In order to receive their secondary
allocations, each of the clubs was required
to show that they were working towards
making up 25 percent of their initial
Student Government allocation. They
were first given 25 percent at the begin-
ning of the semester and had to make up
another 25 percent before they could
receive the final 50 percent of their
allocation.
Ball says three new clubs asked for
money from the financial board and
received it. He says the three clubs were
the Political Science club, the class of 1983.
and the Kappa Alpha Phi fraternity. Ball
says some of the money for these clubs wii!
come from the allocation given to the
Outlook, one of the campus newspapers
,
which will not be published this semester
He says some money will also come fron:
·
the lecture committee. They were given
$2000 from the financial board for three
lectures but they have only had one.
Ball says when the financial board is
finished
with
all the clubs he
will
have
allocated all the money given to them to
distribute.

New tutoring program
Pep
band deemed
a
"success"
By Michael McCarthy
A new tutoring program is being utilized
by the English department at Marist,
according to the Director of the learning
center, Eleanor Conklin.
"Last semester was erratic," says
Conklin. "We would ask
if
students were
interested in tutoring, but it was very
loosely scheduled." Now, in Conklin's
opinion, her tutors are enthusiastic. They
follow a strict schedule in which they at-
tend English and writing classes, and then
hold sessions outside of class with the
students.
There are eight tutors on the learning
center payroll, and they all attend the
actual classes, a precedent in Marist
tutoring. They have all been personally
recommended by the instructors and
Conklin says the learning center's working
relationship with the faculty has never
been better. Conklin also has plans to
expand the "in-class" tutoring program to
the Math department.
''The Children's Hour''
Seniors Barbara Cherello and Kay
Decesare are playing the leads in the
Marist College Council of Theatrical Arts
performance of Lilian Hellman's "The
Childrens' Hour."
It
will be staged on
February 22,23,24,29, and March I and 2 at
8 p.m. There will also be two matinee
showings on Sunday February 24 and
March 2.
"The Children's Hour" is a drama that
concentrates on the results of slander in a
girls' boarding school when two teachers
are falsely accused of lesbianism by some
of their students.
Cherello, who is currently studying with
the Community Experimental Reperatory
Theatre (CERT), starred as Anne Sullivan
in the Marist production of "The Miracle
Worker.''
A
freshman, Arlene Hutnan, plays the
part of Karen Wright who runs the school.
Hutnan, who lives in Panama, had one of
the leading roles in Shakespeare's "A
Midsummer Night's Dream" which was
recently performed at Mari.st.
.
Decesare, who is also playing the·lead in
the Marist's Children's Theatre production
.
of "Willie Wonka and the- Chocolate
Factory," is playing Dr. Joseph Cardin.
Cardin
is
the fiance of Karen Wright.
The director of the production is Steve
Porath, a junior, who
is
receiving six
· credits for
hi$
work.

They were the most successful team in

although they had only seven players. This
seven member team played their hearts
out and never lost a game; This seven

the Marist Pep Band.
Despite having
to
borrow music from
neighboring high schools and practicing
irregularly, the pep band was a success
according to its advisor Bob Lynch.
The band was formed this past
November as a part of President Murray's
plan to generate more school spirit. The
band was given a lot of suppor~ from the

administration according to Lynch. He
said, "We were told that if we needed
anything to just ask for it!' The Mccann
Center donated a large bass
drum
to the
band and Lynch expects more aid in the
future semesters as the band begins to
grow.
Lynch said he wants to see "the pep
band become an integral part of the whole
program down at Mccann," and hopes the
admissions office will "give us a hand
looking for people with musical ability."
According to one band member, the
band needs manv musicians-to "round out

band needs a trombone player, alto
