Intern credit
to ·be discussed
By Jimmy
Perez
Student activity members and
advisors will meet with the
faculty of the Department of
English and Communication Arts
to discuss the guidelines for in-
ternship credit. The meeting will
take place on Tuesday, Nov. 22 at
2:15
p.m. in the reserve reading
room in the library.
Dr. Richard W. Platt, chair-
man of the department, said
academic credit may be given
·where it might be reasonable for
what is done and learned in
positions of responsibility within
activities. By this he feels the
activities
should
be
co-
curricular, meaning activities
which relate clearly and directly
to the content of departmental
course offerings.
Robert Norman, director of
internships for the department
said the co-curricular internships
are attempts to parallel what's
being offered off campus. Mr.
Norman has primary respon-
sibility for arranging internship
contracts.
Mr. Ron Collier, a new member
of the department will obtain a
release to assist Norman in
arranging the internships.
Co-curricular internships will
be given only to juniors or seniors
which
have
a
minimum
cumulative average of
2. 7
in their
major and
2.5
overall. Students
may not hold more than one irr
ternship during a semester
or
gain credit for a position in a co-
curricular activity for which he
is
paid.
Some
students
presently
receiving credit are: The Circle
co-editors, Pat Larkin and Mike
Teitelbaum;
Alan
Hunter,
technical manager of
WMCR and
Gino DiMartino, marketing
manager of· the College Union
Board.
The role of co-curricular ac-
tivity ad_visors will also be
discussed at the meeting. The
departments will suggest a
stipend for the efforts of the
advisors be considered by the
activity members. Funds could
be allocated in budgets submitted
to the student government by
activities or possibly by · depart-
mental funding.
.
Platt outlined the goals of the
department as_ helping to
upgrade the quality of co-
curricular
experience
and
productivity and to protect the
academic.
viability
and
professional credibility of the
internship program.
Platt also cited the growing
number of interns this semester
compared to last. He said the off-
campus internships presently
comprise the majority of the
program and he predicted that
the number of on-campus in-
ternships will increase.

Computer terminals cut back
James Dasher
The number . of computer.
terminals in the Marist. College
computer room, in Donnelly Hall
has been cut from five last year
to three this year: "T"ne reasons
for the cutback are rising costs
and more administrative use,"
said Kevin Carolan, director of
computing - and institutional
research.
Secos Inc. (Shared Educational
Computer Systems), the com-
pany whiGh maintains the ter-
minals, was given a rate hike due
to an overfaoding of computers at
Corn1::1' :University in· 'Ithaca.
Carolan said the main computer
machinery is located in Cornell,
which raised rates to discourage
overuse.
Meanwhile, Marist
was
in-
creasing its use of the computer
center by computing money
matters of the registrar and
housing department on Marist's
terminals.
"The college is in difficult
financial times and is cutting
back in all areas," _said Carolan.
"This .. -iilcluded the computer
center and unfortunately came at
a time we were expanding," he
said.
Last year the computer center
was allocated
$44,460
but spent
$62,867
due to the rising costs and
increased administrative use.
This year the computer center
was allocated $48,685.

Roaches found in potroom
By

The added moisture in the air
is
the main reason for the outbreak
of roaches in the pot room of the
cafeteria over the past week,
according to Joseph Lurenz, Sr.,
director of Marist dining ser-
vices.
The bugs come from the drain
area of the sink, Lurenz said.
According to Lurenz, the
Marist cafeteria is not the only
place that is having problems
with bugs. The Culinary Institute
of America, and fifth floor

Mccann take
projected at
$145,000
By
Susan Baroni
The James J. Mccann Center
would have to become a com-
mercial venture if it
is
to reach
the projected 1977-1978 income of
$145,000, according to Ronald
Petro, athletic director.
The original 1977-1978 income
projection of the McCann Center
is
divided into five categories:
fieldhouse rentals,
$60,000;
pool
renbi.Is, $40,000; basketball
games, $35,000; membership,
$5,000;
and vending machines,
$5,000.
.
- The fieldhouse
is
generally
rented for
$1,000
per night.
"It
requires a lot of nights to make,
$60,000,"
said Petro, and added,
"The facility itself must be
protected. We don't want to take
a chance of damaging the floor
during concerts or large crowd -
attracting events."
The Mccann Center is also in
competition with the
..
Civic
Center. A $25,000 income is now
expectecl from the fieldhouse
rentals and
-
basketball games.
Thrity-five thousand dollars was
expected from basketball games,
allowing a minimum of 1,400
paying customers for each home
game this year. Last year's
average attendance per game
·
was 22 customers. "This is
another unreasonable figure,"
said Petro.
The pciol is rented out at $55 per
hour, and if it is rented for a
period of 20 weeks or longer, the
discount rate is
$35
per hour.
About $500 a week was an-
ticipated for pool rentals, but
usually there is a 40-week year
with vacations. The swim team
will be added to the
$40,000
figure,
at a cost of
$7,000
for yearly
rentals. "We hope to get into the
$30,000
range in pool rentals. We
missed out this year because we
couldn't plan ahead for next
year's rentals being this was our
first year," said Petro.
Memberships were anticipated
to account for
$5,000.
"This is a
plus side, by June
30,
$24,000 will
have been taken in thru daily
guest fees, and rentals," said
Petro.
·
The vending machines have
accounted for approximately
$3,000
worth of income in the first
three months since the center has
opened, according to Petro.
"This is the first good looking
estimate, but it is very doubtful
that we
will
reach the original
$145,000 projection. Expectations
were made as if the Mccann
Center was a commercial ven-
ture, and the estimate was rather
high, but we were working with
ballpark figures. The center was
built for the students, not for
commercial success," said
Petro.

Kalapana
CUB sponsoring Kalapana
The College Union Board (CUB) will present a
Hawaiian rock group called Kalapana along with
the Last Chance Jazz Band on Saturday, Nov. 12
between 9 p.m. and
2
a.m. at the Last Chance
Saloon in Poughkeepsie.
Katapa
·
na has played before sell-out crowds in
Hawaii, San Diego, and other western cities.
Before a 1976 appearance at the Waikiki Shell in
its native state, ticket sales for Kalapana were
overwhelming and two additional dates were
added and subsequeritly sold out.
The six-member band has been popular in the
western U.S. and is currently riding on the
success of its third album called Kalapana III.
Their sound has been compared to those of
Loggins & Messina, America and Pablo Cruz.
According to John Davern, CUB concerts
chairman the CUB will pay $800 to sponsor both
bands. Dolly Bodick coordinator of college ac-
tivities, described the price as "remarkable,
considering Kalapana is getting $4,000 a concert
out on the west coast."
Admission for the event is
$5
a ticket. Davern
said the price includes free beer between 9 and
11:30
p.m.
Davern said at least 320 persons will have to
attend the concert if the CUB
is
to "break even
on the bands." He said the CUB will expect to
pay more for the beer, which he said will be
partially funded through ticket sales and a deal
between the CUB and the Last Chance.
"We're trying to present something different
for the campus." said CUB President Peter
Baudovin. "We want students and faculty to
attend
.
We're not going for a profit."
Tickets for the concert are being sold ain the
CUB office in the campus center.

A banner hanging in the Marist
cafeteria last weekend read
"First Saturday of the Month
Handicapped Get-Together'' and
represented a gathering of about
40 handicapped people from the
Dutchess County area.
On the first Saturday of every
month since 1964, these
han-
dicapped people - the blind, deaf,
crippled, and mentally retarded -
come together at one of the
parishes in Dutchess County to
attend a mass which is followed
by a luncheon.
.
The purpose of the program
is
simply "to get the people to go
out for a change" according to
assistant coordinator Betty
DiStefano. Mrs. DiStefano, of Mt.
Carmel, who, along with Brother
Joseph Bourgeois of Eyrnard, are
responsible for the planning,
preparation, and transportation
of the handicapped peopl~ to such
places as Millbrook, where the
get-together was held last month.
This month however, Marist
College, and Father Richard
LaMorte
·
in particular, were
asked to host the group.
Mrs. DiStefano explained, "at
the last moment we didn't have a
parish to go to this month and we
were in a pinch, sol asked Father
LaMorte if he could say mass for
us and if Marist College could
arrange a luncheon afterward."
The first scene shows the
confrontation
between
a

with his secretary, and his wife.

Persico as Karen and Sam Nash;

students surveyed by the SAC
were opposed to the proposal. She
said most students wanted
Wednesday's off, as they have
now, to catch up on studies, "get
their acts together, and relax,"
and use the time for jobs.
Members of the audience who
spoke after the panel, were
.
mostly opposed to the proposal.
One student said she did not
need
to
be forced to use her time
economically, as she said would
probably happen if there was a
change. A freshman said she
.
opposed the change because she
"came to Marist because of the
schedule." Still another said it
would interfere with internship
programs.
David Aaron wrote a letter
to the editors in the
November 3 issue stressing
the seriousness of the in-
cident arid asked
that
his
sculpture be returned.
The
·
student brought the
sculpture to the Office of
College Activities.
The student said a friend
had stolen it and asked him
to return it, according to
Dolly Bodick, coordinator of
college activities.
The
sculpture
was
returned to Aaron who was
in the Campus Center at the
time.

The sculptor said he will

Approximately 65 people attended the forum
on the proposed time schedule. Although this
isn't a significant number, we can't really bark
anyone out for not attending; we have the·same
feeling about the change most people gave us
.
It
seems to us the change has already been
decided despite the cries of sincerity for student
input from Dr
.
Zuccarello.
We think the forum was a good idea as a way to
get feedback, but
if
the change is made,
academic administrators had better not say they
made it because of what they heard at the forum.
The feedback on the proposal was generally
negative .

The Devil Still Wears Red
By

If I

I
would no longer describe him as a
rather muscular fellow with red
scales, a
_
crooked nose, and a
long, thick tail wrapped around a
crooked trident. That was an
image
I
had at some time in my
youth. I'm sure I picked it up
from

picture in one of my

books.
One of the descriptions I would
give of the devil in a religion class
these days is of a large, granite,
pseude-neoclassical building with
a sign on it reading "Savings and
Loan
Bank." Why? Because with
their pernicious policies of
redlining, the lending institutions
of America have created the
urban hells we call the inner city.
It
seems like a harsh con-
demnation, b.ut it really isn't.-
Redlining is a fundamental cause
of urban deterioration. The
.
colorful name

comes from the
blatant practice of some lending
institutions which drew redlines

money in these neighborhoods.

Ralston says Oswald was innocent
By
Margaret Schubert
Lee
Harvey Oswald did not kill John F. Kennedy, Ross
Ralston, a member of the National Committee to
In-
vestigate Assassinations, told a near-capacity crowd in
the campus theater last Thursday night.
"I'm convinced more than one gunman killed the late
President,,, Ralston said during the lecture and slide show
entitled "The Conspiracy That Murdered John F. Ken-
nedy."
·
The presentation included a showing of the well-known
Zepruder film, believed to be the only film of Kennedy's
death.
Ralston said Oswald had no part in the shooting of
J.F.K., but was a "patsy." "He's a scapegoat, framed by
whoever killed John F. Kennedy," he said.
Ralston contradicted the _Warren Commission Report,
the official findings of federal · investigators of the
assassination. The report says a lone assassin, Oswald, .
shot and killed Kennedy in Dulles Plaza in Dallas, 14 years
ago
this
month. The report also said there was no evidence
of a conspiracy.
.
"The dice were loaded against Oswald," he repeatedly
said.
Ralston said circumstantial evi,dence and manioulation
of testimony convicted Oswald before he could stand trial.
Oswald was killed two days after the assassination by
nightclub owner Jack Ruby.
Motivation
"Many interest groups had a motive (to kill Kennedy),"
he said. "J .F .K. used
his
own money and overlooked
special interest groups."
Organized crime, the steel industries, certain govern-
ment agencies, and
anti civil-rights
groups were
negatively affected by Kennedy's administration.

claimed Ralston, author of "History's Verdict: The
Acquittal of
Lee
Harvey Oswald."
.
Ralston, who
has
been subpoenaed by a Senate com-
mittee investigating the assassination, says a second
gunman was positioned in a "grassy knoll" in front of the
Presidential motorcade.
Nine persons witnessed a puff of smoke rise from behind
a picket fence on the knoll as the President was shot,
according to Ralston, a graduate of the University of
Minnesota.
He presented slides showing cigarette butts and foot-
prints discovered behind the picket fence.
In other slides spectators on Dulles Plaza are running
toward the knoll because Ralston says that is where the
shots were fired.
Ralston agrees with the Warren Commission that
a
gunman was positioned in the sixth floor window of the
Texas Schoolbook Depository, but says that man was not
Oswald.
Ralston said witnesses saw a man wearing a short-
sleeved light-colored shirt on the sixth floor window, but
claims Oswald was wearing a long-sleeved, dark-colored
shirt when he was arrested several hours after the
assassination.
He also said a man wearing horn-rimmed glasses and a
sportscoat was also on the sixth floor. According to
Ralston, witnesses saw men fitting these descriptions in
the Dulles
Plaza
area after the shooting.
A picture of Oswald holding the alleged assassination
rifle, which appeared on the cover of Life Magazine, was a
superimposition of Oswald's head on someone else's body,
he claimed.
In a slide compL ing two pictures of Oswald, Ralston
showed a picture taken at Oswald's arrest in which the
alleged
assassin
has a narrow chin without a cleft. The
second one, supposed discovered in Oswald's desk, has a
broad chin without a cleft.
Super Bullet
The Warren Commission's "Single Bullet Theory" says
one bullet killed Kennedy and wounded Texas Governor
John Connally in his chest, wrist and thigh.
Ralston said it would have to be "super-bullet" for it to
inflict seven wounds and remain noticably undistorted.
Ralston compared three bullets in a slide. One was the
bullet discovered at Parkland Memorial Hospital where
Kennedy was pronounced dead. A bullet test-fired into a
corpse's wrist was drastically deformed as compared to
the one which supposedly killed Kennedy,
During the question and answer period, Ralston said he
lectures approximately ten times
a
month before
predominantly college-age audiences.
He said college students are more accessible and "more
willing to receive the ideas."

Met-7 future will be decided today
By
Ken
Healy
The future of the Met-7 football
conference, which Marist belongs
to, will
be
decided today at a
meeting being held at St. John's
University. League officials and
athletic directors of member
schools will decide if the league
will
continue to play on a club
level or if certain schools will
upgrade their programs to NCAA
Division
III status.
All
the
teams that decided to
switch to Division III would play
as varsity teams. Presently,
Iona, Pace, Brooklyn College,
Manhattan, Fairleigh Dickenson,
St. John's and Marist comprise
the Met-7.
Marist Athletic Director Ron
Petro said, "I think going
Division III would be a good idea,
it would only cost five or six
hundred dollars more." Petro
also said he thought the move
might
be
a year away.

Marist finished its regular season
with an 11-2-1 record.
Naitza's penalty kick goal
came after 15 minutes, 41 seconds
in the second hall after a foul was
committed against Marist's Vito
Aprigliano in R.P.I. penalty area.
In the first half, Naitza, along

penalty kick chances, but when
the Red Foxes got a second

"It

said the coach.
In the Red Foxes match
against .!'dontclair State on Nov.
2, it wa~ the same end but by
different means as sweeper Gil
Ventura scored with less than
four minutes remaining in the
game giving Marist a 1-0 home
final victory.
Ventura got his first goal of the
year at 41:
16
of the second half
when he picked up a deflected
shot in back of , Montclair's
defense and lifted a shot into the
top left corner of the net that
goalie
Bill
Muller was helpless to
.
stop. Muller, just five minutes
earlier, had robbed winger Jim
Downs with a diving save to his
right.
Ventura's goal capped off one
of the Red Foxes best played
halves, as Montclair State was
held to no shots on goal, and a
total of just two for the game. The
Red Fox offense, which was just
about non - existant in the first
half, totally dominated play in
the second hall, as they kept the
ball in Montclair's end almost the
entire 45 minutes of the period.

director of the Met-7, was more
positive. Schwartz said the move
could come next season with five
of the present seven teams going
varsity.
"It
would be a move in the right
direction," he said. "You have to
move up, if you don't, football at
these schools will die." Schwartz
gave examples of Fairleigh
Dickenson and Manhattan as
teams that were dying because
they had played as club.s too long.
"Manhattan wants to keep
playing
as
a club and Fairleigh is
probably dropping football
so
they really don't fit into the
picture at this point."
One possibility being explored,
according to Schwartz, is com-
bining the surviving Met-7 teams
with several members of the now
defunct Metropolitan Football
Confer:ence.
"St. Peter's College, Hofstra
and Seton Hall have been con-
tacted and seem receptive to the
idea of a new metropolitan
football league," said Schwartz.
"I
think
the recognition of being
in the NCAA would be
good
for all
the teams involved and right now
it seems like the best hope for the
league."
Jaspers catch Marist, 9-7
By
Michael Teitelbaum
Marist
fell
victim to its own
mistakes and a fourth quarter
touchdown pass Sunday, losing 9-
7 to Manhattan in a collegiate
football game at Leonidoff Field
on the North Road campus.
This was the fifth game the
Vikings lost by five points or less.
They have a 1-6-1 record and
travel to play Siena Friday night
in the season finale.
The winning touchdown came
with three minutes, 18 seconds
left in the game on a IO-yard pass
from quarterback Bob An-
nunziata to flanker Frank
Donodeo to climax
.
an 87-yard
drive.
The drive consumed over four
minutes and took just six plays.
A
key play was a pass to tight end
John Garbowski for a 24-yard
advance on the next play to put
the ball on the Marist 38.
A
16-yard screen pass to Mike
Filippone moved the ball to the
20.
A five-yard pass to Garbowski
and a five-yard run by Fillippone
brought up a third down and less
~an
a
foot at the Marist 10.
Annunziata faked a handoff
into the line and found Donodeo
open in the left corner of the end
zone for the winning touchdown.
Mike Overbye blocked the
extra point attempt, sparking
some hope of Marist moving
downfield and winning the game.
Marist had possession for six
plays before losing the ball on
downs at Manhattan's 49.
Fillippone gained 13 yards in two
carries and it looked like the
Jaspers would
.
run out the
remaining 90 seconds.
But lineman
Art
Ozols came
up
with his second fumble recovery
of the game at the Marist 40 with
1
:26
to go. Viking quarterback
Jeff Hackett found split end Ron
Clarke for a 12-yard gain and
Hackett connected with Gary
Lambert for a 20 yard completion
to put the ball on Manhattan's 28
with under a minute left.
A pass interference penalty
gave Marist a first down on the
18 with 30 seconds left. Instead of
running the ball to set up a field
goal, the Marist coaching staff
elected to
.
have Hackett throw.
Hackett's
pass,
which
was
in-
tended for Lambert, was picked
off by Vin Collins at the one with
just 21 seconds left in the game,
ending any chance of Marist
winning.
Annunziata gained one yard in
the next two plays to run out the
final seconds.
Marist took an early 7-0 lead
when Hackett scrambled 27
yards down the right sideline for
a touchdown. Clarke's kick gave
the Vikings a 7-0 lead with
55
seconds left in the first quarter.
Manhattan scored with 1:08 left
in the first half on Neal
Canavan's 19-yard field goal. The
kick capped a 13-play, 55-yard
drive.
Hackett completed 14-of-32
passes for 171 yards but suffered
three interceptions. He also
fumbled
twice,
allowing
Manhattan to recover the loose
ball both times. Marist had six
fumbles the entire game and lost
four of them.
Annunziata completed

only
nine-of-20 passes but was eight-

142 yards for the game.

before making his decision.
Zuccarello said the small

at the meeting will not
influence his decision. He added
most of the arguments, which
could have been covered, were
discusst:d.
According to Dr. Daniel Kirk,
professor of psychology, the
campus forum was too

"It

said this
meeting should have scheduled at
the beginning of
the
semester.
Platt
is
the chairman of the
Cpmmunications and English
department.
Dr. Hugh Turley, an associate
professor of biology, said he
thought the forum was successful
because
information
was
dispersed. He was also on the
panel.
.
Peter McFadden, a student
representative on the panel, said
"the poor turnout
·
showed the
apathy
of
the campus." He also
said he thought administrators
were apathetic because they
didn't show up in force.
Ginny Dix, another student
member on the panel, called the
faculty apathetic but hoped the
people who attended the meeting
would spread information about
what happened.
The third student panel
member, Cathy Cornish, said the
commuters weren't formally
informed about the meeting and
that's the reason there was such
a
low turnout. Only five commuters
attended the
forum,
according to
an informal survey
taken
by the
