The fear that' Marist

according to Marist Vice-
President Edward Waters.
"Marist is a very healthy
organization," Waters said.

Fire systems fail
by
Sue Baroni
Fire alann systems failed in
Champagnat •and Leo dor-
mitories October 10 because of
criminal mischief, according to
Joseph Waters, director of
security.
According to Waters, the
company which services the
alarms, found the "strikers''
which hit the bell to sound the
alarm, had been stuffed with
toilet paper and gum, causing an
overload
in
the bell circuit.
Waters
also
said
some
"strikers"
have been stolen.
Waters said there will
be
an in-
vestigation, and offenders if
caught "will not be treated
lightly."
"I
am
appealing to the small
minority of people who perhaps
don't realize the seriousness of
this offense. They are jeopar-
dizing not only their own lives but
the lives of their fellow students
and visitors in the building," said
Waters. Waters said he has hired
three fire marshalls to inspect
the campus alarm systems
weekly.
Waters said there will be more
fire
drills
in the future.
Pre-schoolers
.
in danger
By Gerry
McNulty
Three windows of the new pre-
school area in the old gymnasium
have been shattered by lacrosse
balls thrown by students playing
nearby in the past
10
days.
Joe Waters, director of
security, said no one was injured
in any of the incidents. Waters
also said he had brought the
matter to the attention of both the
.
athletic
and
maintenance
departments. Waters said the
potential danger of the siutation
should be brought to the attention
of the lacrosse players.
The windows were broken on
Friday, Oct 7th, Monday the 10th,
and Thursday the 13th in the late
afternoon. Terry Bilyou, campus
security guard, was on duty
during all three incidents. He
said he reported the incidents and
told the lacrosse players to move
some place else; Bilyou said it
was a departmental problem that
had to be handled by the athletic
department and. added, "I can
tell them not to play but, as soon
as I'm gone they go right back."
The students who work in
,
the
pre-school say it's dangerous and
that security has done nothing to
help.
"They
haven't done
anything," said Carmen
.Rivera.
Connie Fisher agree, "It's not
just us, anybody can get hurt."

CUB
loses $7
46
by Joe Ford
The two most recent concerts
sponsored by the College Union
Board (C.U.B.) concert com-
mittee have resulted in a loss of
$746
according
to
C.U.B.
Treasurer John McCarthy.
_,
In both cases, an extremely
small turnout was the main
reason.for the loss. On September
24,
a concert was held in the
cafeteria featuring "The Old Salt
Band," a country rock group.
Beer was also served at the event
but, surprisingly, few students
attended, leaving the C.U.B. with
a loss of $508 for the evening.
There was no clear-cut reason
why the event failed, but, ac-
cording to Dolly Bodick, coor-
dinator of college activities, there
were a lot of little reasons.
"People didn't quite understand
it was a concert, they thought it
was a mixer. Also, a lot of people
went home that weekend and I
think there were some large
private parties on campus."
McCarthy said the most recent
concert featuring Wildcat Creek
was a "victim of circumstance."
They appeared in the campus
theater on October 2, the same
night the New York Yankees
were pl1;1ving Kansas City in the
American League playoffs on
television.
Wildcat Creek couldn't com-
pete with the Yankees, and the
concert drew only twelve people,
resulting in a loss of $238, ac-
cording to McCarthy ..
McCarthy said the C.U.B.
concert committee has ap-
proximately one-third of its $3700 .
budget left for the remainder of
the school year. He said nothing
definite has been planned for the
future, but one major concert is a
possibility for next semester.

By Dom
Laruffa
It
seems • more students are
using the Marist College libi:ary
more this semester than in
previous ones, according to Mrs.
Nichols, the reference and
-<!atalog librarian.
She added "the library seems
fuller" but that might be due to
the reduced space. She said there
were 19 study carrels removed
from the rear section of the
library on the ground floor to
make room for the audio visual
studio which was previously
located in Donnelly Hall.
She also said seminar rooms A
--
and D were changed to viewing
rooms eliminating more study
space.
·
The main reason students are
using the library more is because
it is quieter than the dorms,
according to students questioned.
Dennis Cosgrove, a senior
criminal justice major, said "I
need total quiet when I read" and
that can't be found in the dorms.
The Head of the Circulation
Department, Mrs. DeVor, said
students use the library because
it is an environment condusive to
study and research material is
readily available.
According to Mrs. Nichols,
more students use the library
during Illid terms and finals
week.
·
Susan Morrow, a
junior
communications major, said
"Recently, I've been there (the
library) quite often because of
mid terms."
Cosgrove said, "I would like to
see the library open until 2: 30
a.m. during mid terms and
finals."
Currently, the library is open
Monday - Thursday from 8 a.m.
until midnight; on Friday from 8
a.m. until 9 p.m.; on Saturday
from noon until 8 p.m. and on
Sunday from noon until midnight.

"I'm excited about this new

"There is plenty of room for

One way the program is
flexible is having representatives

Lavin.
MBA
program
certified
By Kathy
Norton
The Marist College Master of
Arts (M.A.) and Master of
Business Administration
(M.B.A.)
programs
have
received full certification from
the state education department,
according to President Linus R.
Foy.
The programs were previously
under a five - year provisional
certification. During that time
diplomas were awarded by the
State University of New York.
Original proposals for the
programs must be adhered to _
during the five - year period.
.Each program is subject to
· several evaluations by the Middle
states Association of College and
Secondary Schools.
According to Mr. Ted Prenting.
director of the M.B.A. program
at Marist, there are seven major
areas which must meet state
standards: faculty, curriculum,
resources, admission standards,
assessment of student per-
formance,
and
general
evaluation of the program and its
development.
This
certification
allows
flexibility in the programs,
Prenting said. He said several
expansions were being discussed.
These include the possibility of
a five-year degree combining a
B.S. or B.A. degree with an
M.B.A. degree. Prenting aiso
said a program awarding cer-
tificates in graduate studies is
also being explored. "This
program _ will be aimed at
students interested

$500,000 limit
set
on communications center
by
Maria Troiano
• The renovation of the old gym
into a communication arts center
will be re-evaluated in an effort to
limit renovation costs to $500,000.
This was decided at the October 6
meeting of the Board of Trustees.
The re-evaluation will be
conducted by Thomas Wade,
development director,
and
Robert Dyson, task force leader.
Both men are trustees.
According to the procedure
adopted at the meeting, their
objectives will be to describe the
need, obtain architectural pians,
estimate construction costs,
estimate annual income and
expenditures, appoint a task
force leader for a fund raising
schedule, devise a construction
schedule, and to devise a time
schedule for all of the objectives.
The results of .the evaluation
are to be presented at the board
of trustees meeting in February.
According
to
Business
Manager Anthony Campilii, an
earlier plan for the project,
estimated at $750,000 -
$1,000,000,
was considered too expensive by
the board.
He added Marist did not want
to rely on an increase in tuition to
pay for the upkeep of the facility.
The board of trustees have set a
$50,000 limit for annual upkeep
costs.

To the Editor:
It
has been called to the at-

Champagnat Hall residents that
access to the McQann Center is
limited. One does not have to be
: inept to realize that getting to the
center is easiest going through
the woods in back of Sheahan
Hall.
The dangers of going down the
incredibly steep incline to Mc-
cann are numerous .

easily slip or trip and cause

Ex-POW
says,
'Good morning America'
by Larry
Striegel
Every weekday morning before his
voice comes over the air at 6: 10 a.m., Tom
O'Brien opens up WEOK's broadcasting
day by playing the national anthem.
While this is a common practice for most
radio stations, the simple ritual carries
special significance for O'Brien who was a
row
for six months during the Vietnam
War.
Today O'Brteri,
2.13, is the "wake-up
man" at WEOK
in
Poughkeepsie and also
Marist's assistant director of sports in-
formation specializing in basketball
promotions.
O'Brien was a freshman at Queens
College when the Army drafted
him in
1968
:
He was stationed in the town of Tay
Ninh, located 10 miles east of Cambodia,
with the 25th
Infantry Division.
One night while he and about
14
others
were scouting around
i_n
the jungle to
watch for the enemy, the group heard a
marching noise.
"It
was a whole division,'
.
'
says O'Brien
in
his deep radio voice.
"That's about 10,000 soldiers."
He and the group hid
in
the brush while
most
.
of
the crowd walked past. But the
rear flank, responsible for removing
-
-
traces
,
of the division's movement, caught
others two weeks to make it back to some
kind of civilization when they were picked
up by the CIA.
'Never been thanked'
Eight years later, O'Brien has fonned
many opinions about America's ex-
perience with the Vietnam War, but one
thought
is
foremost.
"To this day
I or anyone I've known who
fought over there has never been

He worked at radio stations in Cin-
cinatti, Cleveland, and Colwnbus before
he came to work for WKIP in March of
1976.
He was a disc-jockey, a term he says
he hates, for them for a year and three
months before he switched to WEOK
earlier this year.
O'Brien says he and Ron Petro, Marist's
athletic director, began talking about
promotions for the basketball team early
in May. But the promotions, which include
a t-shirt night and a fan appreciation night
among others, aren't just to help the team.
"My job is to create interest in the
basketball team," he says. "But the main
idea is to promote the school.
"There has to be a return on a
$2
.
5
million investment (the Mccann Center),"
he adds.
Other promotions include a high school
night, and the organization of the Marist
College Basketball Network (MCBN)
which will broadcast Red Fox basketball
via three radio stations.
Eventually the team, scheduled to enter
Division II competition next year, will be a
Division I squad someday, "simply
because that's where the money is," he
says.

hit
By Pat
Larkin
Future stars of the en-
tertainment field made their
debuts last Friday night in the
Marist College Theater.
Students and alwnni of Marist
performed before
·
approximately
160 members of the audience in
the Variety Show presented by
the
MCCTA.
The right mixture of music,
comedy, and the dream - like
image caused by a scrim, a
cheesecloth material, provided
the audience with a show well
wortll seeing.
.
.
Four Marist students, David
Metz, Andrea Firpo, Chris
Paccione, and Frank Borsey
portrayed characters in Star
Wars.
They preceded each act
with comical anecdotes con-
cerning the upcoming act.
· Before the first set of acts, the
characters from Star Wars
discussed "What in the world is a
Marist College?" They concluded
it
is "probably one of those
detention camps or rehabilitation
.
centers."
·
Several acts received large
rounds of applause from the
audience. One 9f the better acts
was Winnie Saitta singing "Part
of the Plan", written by Dan
Folgelberg. She also sang;
"Circle Game", a song written by
Joni Mitchell.
Another top act was Regina
Clarkin reading an Erma
Bombeck selection concerning
her daughter's
_
driving ability .
.
Miss Clarkin promised to "clean
the oven" if she arrived home
safely.
.
More comedy
,was
provided by
Joann Verok as she spoke about
accepting a dance with a guy she
hated. She described his "dance
of death" as "tw
_
o
·
stumbles, a
slip, avd a 20 yard dash."
.
·
Two Marist alumni, Bob Lynch
and Eric Garrison, performed
with their newly formed band.
They sang "Handy Man" by
James Taylor, and "Dancing in
the Moonlight,"
.
a song per-
formed by King
.
Harvest.
The
.
show ended with a special
thanks to Barbara Cherello,
executive director of the show.
All the performers came on stage
and sang "There's a Place
in
the
World for a Gambler,"
by
Dan
Folgelberg, which
is one of
Miss
Cherello's favorite songs.

Fund raising party set
Campus Ministry is mounting a
fund raising drive to send a group
of students to do volunteer work
on the island of Eluthra in the
Bahamas during next semester's
spring break.
The organization has scheduled
a cocktail party for Sunday, Nov.
13 at 3:30 p.m. in the gallery
lounge of the campus center,
according to its director, the Rev.
Richard LaMorte
.
He said money raised from the
affair will help students get to the
island, located next to the resort
of Grand Bahama Island in the
Carribean
.
The group raised $200 from
donations and ticket sales during
Parent's Weekend. LaMorte said
members of the Mari.st parish
have volunteered to prepare
sandwiches and other food for the
cocktail party
. .
He has
also
spoken to area liquor dealers to
ask for donations for the party.
The party
is
for "HEroes and
SHEroes" he said. The theme
was chosen, said LaMorte,
because the affair comes bet-
ween
All
Saint's Day (Nov.1) and
Thanksgiving.
He said tickets will cost
$3
for
students and $5 for others.
Students Jim Kenney and Pete
Persico will be selling them in
Leo Hall, while George Connelly
(C-613) has them in Champagnat
:

The Marist College women's

season on a losing note, dropping
a 4-1 decision to Western Con-
necticut State last Tuesday.
Jenny Johnson finished as the
team's top singles performer,
winning three of her four mat-
ches. Johnson captured Marist's
only point against Western Conn.
with a 3-6, 6-0, 6-1 victory over
Pat Maynicki.
Rita Kolb and Regina Rose
took just one of four matches
while Suzanne Galucci, Bonnie
Rinck and Joann Visak each lost
their only singles match.
-
Rose and Chris Slattery
combined for Marist's only
doubles victory. Other doubles
players for coach Eileen Witt
were Galucci, Rinck, Jane
Brennan and Martha Trabulsi.
Marist defeated New Paltz 4-3
for its only win while losing to
Vassar and W. Conn. by identical
4-1 scores. Siena blanked the Red
Foxes
5-0.
Marist lost both its home
matches and split its away
games. The Red Foxes finished
with six points, but only one came
from doubles play, while giving
up 16 points, including 10 in
singles play.
Heffernan
fills
goalie vacancy
By Ralph Capone
The shot hit him in the face.
If
Rich Heffernan hadn't made
that crucial save against
Hackensack High School in the
semifinals he says he probably
wouldn't be playing goalkeeper
for Marist's soccer team today.
Heffernan, a sophomore from
Orangeburg,
N.Y.
says he wasn't
convinced that he could play the
position until that game when
with 15 minutes remaining and
his school in front 2-0, he made
a
fine save on a shot that hit him
square in the kisser.
"If
they (Hackensack) would
have scored, I
just
about would
have said 'forget it.' But being
they didn't, well you know how it
is," said Heffernan with
.
a smile.
And as might
be
expected,
Heffernan's first experiences as
a goaltender were
.
even more
inauspicious.
"In gym one day we were
playing speedball, and my team
was losing like 15-2," he ex-
plained. "So I took over as a
goalie and we ended up winning
21-18. Afterwards, the gym
teacher, who was also the soccer
coach, came up to me and asked
me to go out for the team, but I
said 'No way.'"
However, persistance by the
coach and a friend, and the fact
he had just transferred from
another high school, were factors
which persuaded Heffernan to try
out for the soccer team.
"My friend Doug, who was on
the team, said it would
be
a good
tim~,
and a way to get to know
people," said Heffernan.
The business major was born
and lived in the Bronx
for
four
years. He then moved to
Orangeburg, N.Y., where he
attended South Orangeburg
·
Junior
High,
and later Tappan
Zee
•
High School for
.
two years.
At 16 he
.
moved to Ridgewood,
Rieb Heffernan
where he now lives (with his)
parents and two younger sisters.
This season Heffernan has
proved to be a surprise for the
Red Fox hooters. With the
graduation of Jay Metzger, an
honorable mention All-State
performer last year, the goalie
position was a question mark.
In
his first game he combined for a
shutout with reserve goalkeeper
John Vandervoort.
Since then he has handled all of
the games
in
what has been a
rougher than expected season for
the hooters. In eiglif games he
has allowed only 13 goals and has
a 1.62 goals against average with
two
shutouts.
Heffernan says he likes the
people at Marist, but adds that
the college needs more activities.
"We could use more bands on
campus," he says. "Ralph
·
·
was
the closest thing to a real band
this college has had, and
probably will have for awhile."
He says he
·
loves to listen to
music, especially Led Zeppelin
.
and Bruce Springsteen.
Heffernan says he is undecided
about his post - graduation plans.
He may choose between soccer or
taking over the management of
his father's pharmacy.
"I'm going to wait and see how
Jay (Metzger) does with the
pros," he said.
"If
he does well
and I progress up to Jay's level,
then I'd definitely give the pros a
shot."
As
for his progress in the goal,
Heffernan says he owes it all to
assistant Red Fox coach Rich
Lotze.
"He's
not only a great
coach, but he's a great guy. You
can talk to him about a lot of
other things besides soccer. He
seems to know about everything
sometimes. Soccer, me, what I
do. He's just great."

By Ralph Capone
The Red Foxes winning streak
came to an abrupt end at four
following a heartbreaking 1--0
defeat at the hands of Quinnipac
at Leonidoff Field last Saturday.
The win was Quinnipac's first
of the season after seven losses,
and the loss at home for
·
Marist
was their first in two years.
In the game, however, the Red
Foxes did just about everything
except put the ball in the net.
"We weren't hitting the
.
ball
well," coach Howard "Doc"
Goldman said, referring to the
numerous missed opportunities
his squad had during the game.
Marist outshot the visitors 35-12
.
The closest call for the Red
Foxes came with less than two
minutes remaining in the contest.
_
Trailing 1--0, Marist was awarded
a corner kick. Firmino Naitza
took the kick and passed it to
his
brother Zenone who then-sent it
across the goalmouth

enough," Goldman said after the
game

winning. Sometimes, either you
do it, or you don't, and we didn't
