canister of film containing senior

result, senior photographs had to
be retaken at the end of January.
Gallucci also cited staff
problems as contributing to the
yearbook delay. She said "only
seven people in the whole college
put the yearbook together this

"assured me that the program

want to see any of the kids get
hurt." Hines said he is pleased
with the way the program stands
now. Colfer has the experience
and availability that is needed for
the program, he said.
There is a definite need to have
someone available to do ad-
ministrative work, said Hines.
The combination of two people,
one as administrator, and one as
counselor, may turn out to be
better than what we have had in

Colfer will not be dealing ex-

Dr. Jeptha Lanning, former
communication arts department
chairman, believes he has a
better understanding of student's
problems since returning to the
classroom himself.
"Students have changed since I
first went to school," said Lan-
ning. "There is greater par-

have recently developed in
communications.
Although Lanning is returning,
he does not want to

ment again. "I have made my

"New approaches and new

According
to
Lanning,
economics and politics are
controlling the communications
field more and more. "Network
programming art takes second
place to the communications
venture," said Lanning. He
believes art is sometimes
sacrificed for the sake of making
money.
Lanning said the average age
of students in his classes was
usually about
30.
He enjoyed

people and believes a mixed

Financial aid policy

By Beth Weaver
Students can earn in excess of
'their financial aid allocation this
year, providing the extra funds
are used toward financial aid
next year, according to Michael
Fraher, assistant director of
financial aid.

formerly the Parents' Con-
fidential Statement (PCS).

Students
reaching
tbeir
financial aid limit have other
options such as quiting work;
reducing their financial aid
award and securing a Guaran-
teed Student Loan (GSLP) from a
bank; or reducing their award
and getting assistance elsewhere,
said Fraher.
When a student reaches his
allocation according to Fraher,
the financial aid office examines
the student's budget. The budget
includes tuition, room and board,
and personal expenses. Fraher
checks if the estimated funds
from the Tuition Assistance
Program (TAP) and Basic
Educational Opportunity Grant
( BEOG) equal the projected
amounts. He then contacts the
student and explains the situation
and possible solutions to the
problem.
By Gerard Biehner
Academic Dean Louis Zuc-
ca re ll o and Associate Dean
Gerard Cox met Tuesday af-
ternoon with student leaders, in
order to
"maintain
.

munication between their office
and
.
stud~nt !eadership",
_
"Any
administrator has only
a
limited
vision of what's going on", said
Zuccarello, and meetings such as
these would give them a "fuller
vision",
and
"bring into
discussion topics they
·
are not
paying sufficient attention to".
/ t the meeting were: Jack
Boyle, vice - president of student
government; Cathy Cornish,
president of the commuter union;
Mariann Pouso, chairman of the
student academic committee;
Ken Healy and Gerry McNulty,
co-editors of the Circle; and Pete
McFadden of the inter-house
council.
One of the main topics of
discussion was the alleged grade
inflation at Marist. A sub-
committee surveyed the grading
practices of Marist's faculty, to
"assess the validity and ap-
pli~ation of the
college's
catalogue policy on grades",
according to Cox. The sub -
committee has looked at the
policies of other institutions, but
Cox admits only valid con-
clusions
can
come
from
analyzing Marist's own patterns.
A survey was sent to the mem-
bers of the faculty, asking if they
feel the grades they give as
consistent with the college's
policy. The results are in, said
Cox, but a survey tapping the
students opinions has been
stalled
due
to
computer
problems. He hopes
.
a manual
survey, now being planned, will
bring the desired results by late
April. Two other sub - com-
mittees, analyzing
_
attendance
and internships, are in the works
but are only in the developmental
stages.
Four program proposals were
discussed for the upcoming year.
A sociology-social work major is
"very
ripe", according to Zuc-
carello.
It
needs some revision
and must be approved by the
faculty and the student academic
committee. A five year degree
option, with which a student
could earn both a bachelors and a
masters degree is possible. This
would give students a more
professionally oriented degree.
Degrees in Public Administration
and Fine Arts are also being
considered, yet both are only
in
the developmental stages.
Zuccarello discussed the
success
of
Marist's
Core
program. He said many colleges
have commended Marist for it,
and it has received favorable
attention from many colleges
throughout the nation.

Cox and Zuccarello discussed
the pertinence of the student
evaluations of teachers. The
students voiced the little regard·
many students have for the
evaluations bringing it to their

be placed on these.
Cox and Zuccarello welcomed
student 'opinions, emphasizing

Responsibility of choice
The room reservation proposal. written by
Fred Lambert, assistant dean of students. is
designed for the betterment of the com-
munity at the expense of the individual. Mr.
Lambert believes, because of the n•sults of
two studies conducted in California. common
interest groups will
·
help individuals
academicallv.
However.· the issue
.
at stake is not the
academic atmosphere of the dorms, Lut the
rights of students to makP responsibl1•.
mature. and
.
free decisions. One of these
rights students should have is the frPedom to
decide where thev want to live.
If
there is an
academic problem at Marist. it will not bt'
solved by artificially ereating a Letter
academic atmosphere.
Responsible
students will prospn
academically
by
free choice, not by a change
of lifestvle in which their freedom is restric-
ted.
!~responsible
students will
fail
academically, irregardless of their lifestyle or
restrictions placed on them .

Viewpoint
:ZS.-
Two typed pages; double spaced
By L.
Zuccarello
Yes, I did promise to write something for
LaMorte's Viewpoint column ... Two type-written
pages, double - spaced ... Don't want it to be too
preachy- sometimes we laymen have a tendency
to outpreach the preachers.
-A
topic, a
topic? ... Something academic, maybe the values
element of the core? ... Something about politics?
Maybe about the need not
to
lose heart - the need
to continue
to
participate - to try to be part of the
solution? Religion might be a good subject - the
charismatic movement. How the Spirit
is
moving in our times arid in our lives ... God loves
us
as we are
-
we don't earn
His
love or work up
to it. What a powerful reality! -
He knows
us
as
we are and loves
us as
we are. Like any true
love, He wants good things for us and He wants
us
to love
Him
by loving each other, as He loves
us - as
we are. That may get heavy.
A
simple,
profound truth complicated by trying to explain
it.
What about some personal dilemmas? Should I
have let the kids watch the Ali-Spinks fight? Is
boxing
a legitimate sport; when we're trying to
teach the kids how
we
must love and res~ the
Christ in each other, in everyone else? Worried
abou~ peace in the Middle
East,
when I con-
stantly overlook the chances for peace and love
in my own neighborhood or on campus?
Do
I
really love my students and my co-workers?
All
that posturing we do,
.
the roles we play, the
mas~ we wear! Be the Dean, be the full
professor, be the student leader - when do we
have the chance to be - people - a person?
So
what if all the colleges stand on their traditions
and rank and some of the sham that goes with it?
What kind of a community should college be?
I knew it would get preachY.,
It
·
would probably
be better to stay
away ,
from that personal
dilemma stuff ....
Maybe it's time to talk about good things, good
people, struggling people. Mother Theresa - good
write-up in the J9urnal - nice to know a Marist.
graduate went
to
join her
·
and her work. The
Taize movement moves quietly into Manhattan -
to live with people and to have people touch each
other, - nothing overly dramatic -
just
a good
thing quietly at work. Good people with no big
write-ups too - Mrs. Patrice in Poughkeepsie,
caring for the less fortunate at holiday time; the
students and faculty here, who care about each
other - who have no need or desire to hurt each
other - good people doing good things - quietly!
I
really have to get
·
the article written.
Something should emerge out of these ram-
blings. What
is
it that they would expect the
Dean to say? Something clear - well-structured -
something charismatic - a bold new academic
move .... What would the Dean at some other
school say?
-
·
Forget the Dean and the expectations of
others. There are more important things and
maybe somebody will understand. Anyway,
this
might fill two type-written pages.
What
could
·
I
add
if
it's too short?
,
.... Wo\lldn't you know it.
It
is too short. If
I
left"
it this way, the Circle would have more space
and they could probably fit in another editorial.
They wouldn't
just
leave blank space. Maybe, an
editorial praising maintenance for the way. they
helped
us
all cope with the snow .. or maybe one
on the Theater Guild or the athletes or some of
the other groups that help
to
enrich our campus
life.
.
Well, that's really for them to decide. They can
leave it blank
if
they want.

resigns?
To the editors,
We, the undersigned, resident
students of
Leo ·
Hall hereby
protest the coerced resignation of
Mr. Gino Dimartino as the
resident advisor on the first floor.
We feel the action taken by Mr.
Patrick Lennahan, house master
of
Leo,
represents his lack of
understanding of the situation in
our building. Mr.
.
Lennahan's
abuse o.f power
is
viewed as his
debilitated response to his per-
sonal
conflicts
with
Mr.
Dimartino.
ID policy
To the Editors:
I
am
writing in regard to the
newly- enforced rule in the
cafeteria pertaining
to
1.D.'s.
How can one enforce a rule if it
is not going to be followed con-
sistently? By this,
I
.
mean
adhering to it at breakfast, lunch
and dinner. Apparently, it is only
being strictly enforced at dinner
<
weekdays only).

As

irrational conduct is tied to his
inability to adapt to the college
dormitory environment; his
approach to understanding
human nature is not in line with
that of the student population. To

I.D.'s. In fact, a person who
misplaced his I.D. had to pay for

as well as studied with layers of

Fred Gainer along with our

I
think
that the

should be che_cked on the higher
floors to prevent an epidemic in

done before next year because

HEY loved 1t. The
.
love came from the
1200
people who
gave the cast of The
Mircale Worker a
standing
ovation
for
each of their
four performances.
Cindy Davis as Helen Keller and Bar-
bara Cherello as
Annie
Sullivan gave
performances that will be remembered at
Marist for a long, long time.
Davis was so believable that few could
doubt for a moment she was deaf, dumb
and blind
.
At one point she sticks herself with a pin
and the sound she makes is filled with fear,
frustration and pain
.
Davis showed her
ability to reach out to an audience and
make them feel what she is feeling.
Her performance was constant and
alive. The audience seemed astounded at
her ability to portray such a difficult
character.
.
In the fight scenes with Cherello, Davis
was convincing. She never lost composure
or came out of character
.
The tension and frustration is felt when
Cherello and Davis have one of their fierce
battles. Helen will not sit still and eat from
her O\Yll plate. The two battle to see who

will have control. At one point it seemed
certain one of them was going to be thrown
off stage. Their brawling was so intense
their heavy breathing could
be
heard by
the audience.
Davis said the fights were not staged. "I
have the black and blues to prove it," she
said.
Although some might say Davis had the
more difficult role, Cherello's portraY.al of
Annie
was not easy. Her emotions could be
felt by the audience.
She made the audie11ce empathize with
Annie when she becomes frustrated at not
knowing how to get through to Helen that
everything has a name
.
"It's got a name",
said Annie, "it's got a name
.
I don't know
how it will come, but it will come,"
Cherello portrayed
Annie
as someone
who is trying to cut herself off emotionally
from the world
.
She has been hurt before
and tries to avoid all emotional in-
volvement. However, Cherello plays Annie
as a person with a lot of love inside, who
will someday
be
able to give and accept
love.
Both Cherello and Davis are dynamic.
The most important thing an actor can
give to an audience is emotion. Making
someone laugh or cry
is
not easy and
Cherello and Davis accomplish both.
Cherello delivered her comedy line with
quick snappy answers. She retorted as if
she were in a verbal battle instead of a
play.
Cherello uses an Irish accent throughout
the play
.
It
is
constant and never falters.
Another member of the cast who was
outstanding was Mike O'Meara as Captain
Keller, Helen's father.
His
voice and appearance on stage
commands your total attention. When he
was angry he spoke with
fury
and anger in
his voice.
O'Meara is the type of performer who
walks on stage and
is
immediately noticed.
He has a presence about
him

certain quality that will make her an
outstanding stage performer.
When Helen's mother is at the garden
house with
Annie
the audience believed
she had missed Helen. However, she is not
totally convincing. Her voice is soft and
does not command attention. When she
and the Captain argue over with Annie
over Helen, Touchette seems to fade into
the background
.
One member of the cast who took away
from the pl
_
ay's overall perfection was
Ray
Israel as the son James
.
Israel seemed
undecisive as to how to portray the
misunderstood son. In some scenes he was
obnoxious and sarcastic.
In
others all he
did was leer at
Annie.
At the end he asked
his stepmother Kate to be his friend
.
It's
hard to
be
this in a sincere act. This con-
fusion detracts from the character and
from the play. Also, the conflict between
father and son does not come across as
strong as it should.
This
was an area where
the play is unfinished.
Kevin Stack, in charge of lighting,
sometimes made the lights do more than
the actors. At the end of act two, each
character is alone with a spotlight upon
them. The individual lights made the
audience see the performers as a group,
but also as individuals contemplating their
own problems
.
The spotlights enabled the
audience to empathize with each
character
.
Normal lighting could not have
accomplished this.

unnecessary and unhealthy to

Waterworks Road might be
fixed in the spring, according to
Poughkeepsie city manager
William Cranston.
Cranston's secretary said he
said the road may be repaired
when other city streets have
potholes filled in, but he "didn't
know for sure."
"If
it does belong to us we have
to keep it so people can travel on
it," said Poughkeepsie mayor
JackXennedy.
Maintenance director Andrew
Pavelko said the controversial
ownership of the road is in the
hands
·
of
the
city
of
Poughkeepsie.
Although
it
is illegal for anyone
other
than
the
city
of
Poughkeepsie to repair the road,
Pavelko said Marist has put
gravel in the potholes when they
have become dangerously deep.
"It's the same old story," said
Pavelko. "We're at the mercy of
.
the city.''

Stevens steps down,
Schatzle new track coach
By
Regina Clarkin
Rich Stevens has relinquished
his position as head track coach
,
but will remain the cross country
coach
.
Joe Schatzle, a teacher at
John Jay High School replaced
Stevens as the new track coach.
Stevens, who has been head
tra
ck and cross country coach for
six years will concentrate all of
his time and efforts on the cross
country program which includes
the
c
ross country invitational and
the distance
,
running camp with
Marty LiquorL
He said that he
.
could not find
the time needed to continue both
jobs. "The planning of the Camp
and the Invitational
is
a year-
round operation and it
,
coupled
with our expanding cross country
program
,
takes a great deal of
.time and effort. I don't feel I
colild do justice
to
both track and
cross country and maintain the
camp and invitational."
Schatzle, has coached track as
a Marine officer at Quantico and
Camp
LeJeune,
Cheshire
Academy,
Ct.,
Haldane and
Wappingers high schools. He has
helped organize cross crountry
and indoor programs in the
county
.
The graduate of Manhattan
College ran on the sprint relay
team
that won five consecutive
IC4A Indoor and Outdoor Team
Championships, one of which he
captained in his senior year.
"Communication between the
athlete and his coach
is
not only
basic, its essential
.
The athlete
must fir~ believe in himself,
have faith
i
n his training
program with a willingness to
endure hardship and temporary
setbacks, and finally he must
allow his coach to encourage and
direct him to achieve his goals
.
A
failure in any of these areas will
only limit the athlete's poten-
tial.

.
Millspaugh continued his winning
ways Saturday and Sunday by
placing seventh overall at the
Collegiate Track Conference
Championships at Pratt Institute
,
Brooklyn and first at the Ren-
saleer Polytechnic Invitational,
Rensaleer
.
Last Friday Millspaugh won
his heat of the 800 meter run at
the Collegiate Track Conference
Championships b
y
a
large
margin
.
In the CTCC, runners
with the best time are able to
qualify in additional heats.
Millspaugh, running in an
.
un-
challengable heat, did not run his
best performance, therefore not
qualifing for further heats
.
The only Marist scoring came
in the mile walk. Mike Morris
placed third with a time of 7:07.
Millspaugh remained unbeaten
the following day at the RPI
Invitational when he won the 1000
yard run with a time of 1 :14
.
This
time broke the old recrod he set
back on Feb. 5 at the second
Marist Developmental Track
Meet. Millspaugh will attempt to
defend his undefeated streak this
Saturday at the Cortland In-
vitational.
