We would have to·
clear
that with the
college.'' ·
-
.
According to Skrodanes; . the yearly:
· allocation the IHC receives from student
government· is not enough to work with.
"I'd like. to see the IHC have its own ac~
· count, but the trustees are against .. it
. because it· would add to the cost of
tuition," he said.
To handle the money shortage, LaMorte
said, "What I'd like to do is
try
to not wait·
until we have the whole amount needed. If
we install the TVs gradually, people would
be more encouraged and the possibility of
getting it done is better."
·
"The TVs would be mounted off the
ground," said I_..aMorte. "In Campagnat
we could attach them under the study
booths. We spoke to maintenance in
September but they have
to
get back to me
on how they would see doim[
it."
"Those booths are totally useless right
now," said Skrodanes. "With the increase
in the amount of students on campus and
over crowding of the library, we need more
areas to study."
.
.
LaMorte said the problem with an en-
deavor like this is ihat "students can get
discouraged because it takes so long to·
see
results." He hopes to have three televisions
installed by S~pt.
by Laurie Lovisa
, On Feb. l8~j97s,'Shelly Sperling, 17~ Maho~ac, lay dying on ..
the floor-of the cafeteria's food service office at Marist College.
Moments before, Louis O.Acevedo
III, 20,
Mahopac, a
former boyfriend of Sperling, ·had entered the cafeteria. Shortly
after
6
p.m. a report ofshots being fired summoned·town police .
to the college campus .. Sperling was found dead. .·
-_
· · ·
- . TheSperUng murder has become part of Marist folklore. Like
most folkloreit is laced with fact and fiction. Rumors that have
flourished in the last seven years are varied. Some say she was
kJJled by a man under the influence of drugs. Others say she was
murdered by a shot to the head..

· ·
·
· What follows is an attempt to set the record straight throl!gh
eye· witness · account and reports that appeared in the
Poughkeepsie Journal, Feb. 19, 197S.
.
.
At
5:45
p:m.
Louis
0.
Acevedo entered the cafeteria with
friends to have dinner. Acevedo, then a student at Dutchess
Community College, accosted the Sperling girl and a friend and
chased them into the cafeteria's food service office. There were
three male employees on a break in the office. With a
·.32
caliber
pistol one of two shots were fired at one of the employees
as
they
fled with Sperling's friend.
· ·
Sperling was alone with Acevt40. Two more shots were heard.
Police flooded the cafeteria but hesitated entering the office.
They believed the girl was being held hostage. .
· · .
When police ·finally ·decided to enter the rOO!)l, they ~ound
Sperling dead on the flo~r. She had ~een shot twice, once
m
the
shoulder and once in the side. - ·
. ·
-
·
. .
Xavier Ryan, associate professol' of philosophy at Marist
College, remembers well tlie Sperling murder.
"1
knew and
became very good frierids with Shelly because she was in the
Science of
Man
program," .said Ryan: "Walking across campus,
Shelly made a point of always being in the company of others,''
.he sai~. "She feared Acevedo coming after her."
·
-··
-
Ryan said that several months prior to the murder, Acevedo
had assaulted Sperling. "He and Shelly were down by the river
when Acevedo pjcked up a rock an<J threw it at her," said Ryan;
"After Shelly was struck, she managed to calm him down and
persuade him to bring her to_ the hospital. She was a .remarkable
girl," Ryan said.
_
According to Assistant District Attorney Jim O'Neil, Louis
0.
Acevedo is presently in the Harlem Psychiatric Center, Dover,·
N.Y.
Immediately after the murder of Shelly Sperling, Acevedo was
takeq to the Mid-Hudson Psychiatric Center where he was found
mentally incompetent to stand trial.
·
"Our theory is that the murder was premeditated," said
O'Neil. "We believe Acevedo knew and understood fully what he
was doing
up
until when the trigger was pulled. After that he
went into a catatonic state."
O'Neil· said that psychiatric reports reveal no·· evidence that
Acevedo will be mentally fit to stand trial in the near future. "At
this rate,· he could be in the mental facility for the rest of his
life."

DiScUssion of rape
·
·
·

focuses on ptevention
i,~
Dawn Oli_~er
·
Rape and rape prevention were the topics
being discussed by both men and
·women
in
·
C},lampagnat's second floor lounge last
Wedn
·
esday evening.
·· .

·
.
·
The subject was the focus of an informal
·
question and answer session conducted by
: Jean
Craven of the St. Francis Crime
Victim Center and Detective Alfred W.
Smith of the Poughkeepsie police
department. Smith
.
addressed the legal
definitions
.
·
and. Craven spoke about
prevention methods.
..
"There/are two reported rapes in
Poughkeepsie a year,,, said Craven, "but
actually there could be dozens not
reported. Most women·
.
are afraid of
mistreatment by the police.'' Smith replied,
"We only
·
have one
.
female police officer
·
and she's caUed in whenever she's on duty.
I
myself have
·
spoken
to
some of these
:women -
lllOSt
of them are
.
willing to
talk."
.
.
Craven cited some preventative measures
·such as parking your car
in
a well-lit area,
not walking alone arid always locking your
car door as a some common sense means
for preventing rape.
. .
.
.
"Over
50
percent of all rapes occur in a
woman's own home or apartment. Most
times it is someone the woman knows -
there's
.been
some kind of previous con-
tact,"
·
said Craven. She advised that
women "be sensitive and aware of what is
going on around you."
Smith encouraged-women to contact the
police department immediately if a rape
should occur. "We have to go to the scene
of the crime to gather evidence," said
Smith. "Rape is one of the most difficult
crimes to pro,ve.
If
there's no substantial
evidence, the charge is brought down
·
to
sexual misconduct. There's a big difference
in the sentence."
When faced with an actual situation,
Craven advised the students against self-
defense. "He has the advantage
-
he's
already thought out what he's doing,'' she
said. If self-defense is to be attempted,
however, it should be done at the outset of
the auack according to Craven. "For self-
defense to help, it has
to
be an instinctual
reaction," she said.
After the program had concluded,
Crayen said that the turn out was very
·
good.
"I
was encouraged by the interest,
· not only in our remarks, but
.
by the
students' concern about how to protect
themselves." Smith agreed and said,
"If
they
.
ask questions, it shows they were
lisiening. I think it went very well."

in

his trip to Lagos;

.
.
.
-
"It ..tas a rugged trip,
.
but it
was a
·
·
fascinating opportunity to go to a country
that is still in its state of development,"
said Murray..
.
The five~day trip was sponsored by the
·
American Institute of Management, a
group which is endorsed by the State
Department·
.
that publishes material and
sponsors
lectu
.
res
and seminars
for
·
businesses. The trip enabled Murray to
lecture on planning techniques to Nigerians
representing government, educational
institutions and private business.

.•
been in
Murray
·
said the
,,contrast
between the
·
developed and
·
Jhe
underdeveloped
·
segments of the Nigerian society is greater
than anywhere else in the world. "Some of

Murray, who has lectured in Europe,
Singapore, Hong Kong and China, regards
the lecture in Nigeria as the most enjoyable
in terms of its people even though the
conditions were rugged.
"They
are
charming and jovial people. They laugh
·
freely and they joke with each other,'' said
Murray, adding that they are very bright
'
and dedicated people
.
who want
.
their
country to merge as a leader in Africa.
·
.
.
·
Last November Murray gave the same
lectures to the people of China.
He
said the
similarities and differences between the
people of China and Nigeria can be readily
seen.
"The commonality was their fascination
with America. Both groups were
·
very
interested in American way of life,
management and values," said Murray.
In contrast, he said the culture, the
history and the attitudes are extremely
different. Pointing out that the Orientals
are much more formal, while the Nigerians
are more open and less formal. Murray
attributes the latter to
.
the cilfficult con-
ditions that the Nigerians have had to
overcome.
Murray has been asked by the American
Institute of Management to lecture in
South East Asia this summer but he has not
yet decided whether he will go.

managed to escape, this time during an air
raid.
·
·
·
· "1 stepped on a dead body and looked
down and saw it was a nurse," said Teich.
"I
.
stripped her ©)othes and took her
.
pocketbook and went
.
back to Hungary."
.
At this time, Teich and her friends made
contact with the Yugoslavian underground
·
and began working full time toward saving
other Jews..
·
· ·
·
·
·
-
"It was a time
·when
hundreds of
thousands of Jews were being rounded up
in ghettos,'' said Teich. She described how
soldiers marched people through the streets
·
every day and lined them up at the Danube
River and shot them ... Three to four years
later the Danube was still washing up the
bodies," said Teich.
·
·
·
Teich came into contact with Raoul
Wallenberg, the Swedish diplomat who
devoted all his
.efforts
into saving Jews
from Nazi hands. She explained that
Sweden was neutral and that the Swedish
and
.
Swiss consulates began handing out
·
visas for Jews to escape with.
Teich said, "Raoul was a skinny, quiet,
peaceful man; he approached the Gestapo
with a voice I didn't think could come from
him."
.
Wallenberg, according to Teich,
organized homes for the Jews to live in.
She added that he followed the cattle trains
every day with credentials for the victims in
his hands and demanded their release.
"One day I went with Raoul Wallenberg
.
half way to Auschwich,'' said Teich.
''You
see there were people who helped us -
·
unfortunately; there wasn't enough."
Teich closed her lecture by saying, "You
were never safe; you were always on the
run. There was never a peaceful moment -
you got so trained you could almost smell
as SS man,"said Teich.
The lecture, which was part of Marist's
commemorating National Holocaust
Week,
was begun with a short introduction
by Marist
.
College President Dennis
Murray.
·
Murray welcomed especially
members of the outside community and
explained,
.
"We ask the students here at
Marist to be committed not only to making
sure these tragic days would not happen
again, but also to erase the prejudice and
hate in society
.
which lead to it," said
Murray.
After Teich spoke, Rabbi Zimet con-
cluded by saying, "Although it is not easy
for the survivors to speak, they know they
have a duty to talk -
today more than
yesterday," said Zimet. "The Holocaust
was not a big Jewish lie - but a sad truth."

With the
aid.
of student volunteers, the
Marist Fund Drive for
19~2
is approaching
its projected goal of
$172,500
in total gifts.
As of this date, the total amount raised
exceeds
$164,000,
,with June 30 marked as
the completion of the drive. The targeted
goal marks an increase of 23% over the
1981
drive.
According to Marist F~nd Director Ron
Zurawik, the drive is intended· to gain
financial support from various groups for
-the college. These funds will be used to help
pay for the new Lowell Thomas Com-
munication Arts Center, as well as to
alleviate some_- of the. operating expenses
that t~ition does riot pay
'for.
The' various
groups who contribute _to the fund inclu_de
alumni, parents, · businesses and cor-
porations and trustees.
Most of the money donated is
unrestricted, meaning that the person sends
a donation with no strings attached.
If
a
donor is employed by one of the
800
companies that match employee gifts to
educational institutions,
it
provides the
college with more funds without doing any
soliciting.
The student volunteers are involved with
phone-a-thons, where a student calls a
prospective donor off a list provided by the
Reg!strar. "Over the past three years that
we have conducted phone-a-thons, a
variety of stud~nt.groups have beeri in-

"It's been a hurting season all in all,"
said McMahon. "Not only was the turnout
for ,the C1:1p _cli~appointing but the whole
season has been. We have a tight budget
this year, and each person is expected to
spend $3 or $4 on gas for our away races."
: The crew teams' budget is $9,000, but
after purchasing boats and oars it' doesn't
leave much· more for other expenses. "I
really don't like the idea of paying money
_for gas,'' said McMahon. "But if that is
what it takes to be out on a river to row, I'll
pay it."
-
The dwindling budget also had an affect
on the Cup atmosphere. "Last year there
was a big breakfast in the boat house
before the races," said· McMahon. "This
year there was barely anything for the event
. that is supposed to be so big. I didn't even
see President Murray. It was very disap-
pointing. Maybe I was just expecting too
much this year at the Regatta. I've been
waiting all year for this race. ·I love to row
on our own river."
The day ended with Marist finishing a
close second. "All in all the Regatta was a
success," said McMahon. "But it would
have been better if more teams came and
there were more festivities. Also, there is
nothing like getting an individual medal for
your efforts after a victory. that's what I
really miss."
Thatwo~ld have made getting up at 5:30
every mornmg that much more worthwhile.
