Mulligan hopes that by in-

We have had a problem in the past thatlwouldlike to clear up
in
this
article. It pertains to guns on campus. N.Y. State Law forbids the
possession of guns on any campus without the written permission
of
the College President. The State Penal Law, Section
265.05
sub para 10
reads "Any person who knowingly has in his possession a rifle,
shotgun, or firearm in or upon a building or the_ gi:ot_Inds,_ used for
.
educational purposes, of any school, college
<r
umversity without
the
written authorization of such educational institution, is guilty of a
class A misdemeanor, and he is guilty of a class D felony
if
he
has
previously been convicted of any crime."
·
· ·
.
A conviction on a
..
class A misdemeanor gives up to
1
year im-
.
prisonment. A conviction on a class D.felony gives up to 7 years
im-
prisonment.

·

this

THE CIRCLE
PAGE3
Circle Editorials
Munich
Reaction
By Thomas Rabbitt
When
a
man or a group of men become so obsessed with a goal
<r
an
objectiv
_
e that they lose sight of their striving toward that goal, we
run
the risk of Munich. Those Arabs were dedicated nien
no
doubt, and yet
no men at all. Their life became the instruments of what they would
achieve. Their sensitivity was sold away to their terrorist obsession.
. But of all places why should they choose Munich to show us their sub-
human fist?
In
1936
Jesse Owens had forfeited on his first two tries in the running
broad jump. His Germanopponent suggested a method to correct his
failing. Athletics mattered more
t.o
that German than winning. The
ultimate victory went to the event which gave the Olympics a gold
medal_ist but wentfurther to give the oorld an example of co-operatim
and solidarity.
·
Men gathering with the sole intention of winning, men with goals but
men who at the competitions end graps each other in· hard-fought joy.
The Olympic torch engenders that momentary chill when one feels
that just maybe all the rhetoric of brotherhood hasfotmd a single
pure
expression ..
That torch is marred. And its faint flicker sends out a warning that
had better be reckoned with. No one goal, no oile objective, matters
more than tpe activity we engage in
-
to realize that goal. It's so terribly
simple: The disregard of that torch is so terribly clear.
;Ed. Note--The Editorial Board unanimously agrees with Mr. Rabbitt.

Co-op Book
Store
Through the efforts of a few Marist students, a Cooperative Book
Store has been instituted on campus. While it
is
still unsure where it
will be located, due to U1e decision of the Budget Committee to cancel
allotments, the Co-op will be in operation in the near future. It hopes to
offer Marist a new source of free paperback materials, a book ex-
change, and personal items not found in the present Marist Book
Store. In addition, the Co-op hopes to sponsor
a
variety of
films
of
particular topical interest that are not normally available to the
general public.
Since the Co-op Book Store will cause direct and positive assistance
to the student body, administering to both cultural and educational
needs; it should be fully supported by all.

Due .to the conditions still
.present in the labor market, it is
imperative that graduating
seniors begin now to concern
themselves with what they would
like to pursue as a career after
graduation.
The search for that first job
a(ter graduation will require that
seniors begin early examining
the possible career · avenues
Each person who is listed as a
senior by the Recorder's Office
will receive in the mail our
monthly preview of recruiters
coming on campus, but from our
experience, we know that few
students actually are hired in a
campus interview. In practically
all cases, the senior must spend a
good deal of time investigating
companies, federal and state
agencies, etc., which do not
recruit at the campus.
May I suggest, therefore, that
seniors wondering about their
futures come into our Office,
complete a student file and ·make
an appointment so that we will
have an opportunity to be of
service to_you.

Only Weakness
J. Redmond & J. Keegan
,
In many. ways the Marist
College Vikings began their
season this past Saturday. In
their first intra-squad scrim-
mage nf the season the Vikings
presented many ne:w looks on
offense arid defense. This· year,
the team will. face the most dif-
ficult schedule of their eight year
existence.
· In the scrimmage on Saturday,
Jhe small but experienced
Yikirigs showed many
·
signs of
· past greatness on both sides of
the field. In the opening minutes,
the Vikings offense all but an-
nihilated· the renowned defense.
.- However, the victory was short-
· lived. :rrue to its reputation the
defense, called_ to order by
veterans Russ' Humes, _
John
_ Sullivan, and Dan · Faison soon
took command. What followed
was over an hour of hard hitting,
concientious scrimmaging with
neither side showing dominance.
Orie of the problems that will
plague the Vikings throug~out
the long season is the obvious
lack of depth on both the offense
and defense. · ,In the past twc:>
years when.- the team exhibited .
greatness in just abm1t every
aspect of the game, they \\-~re
always a_ble to
fi,11
in certain
positions in key situations. This
year, however, the team is
relatively small in number and
inexperienced, many new faces
will be asked to perform in some
difficult situations in the course
of the season.
Some of the · teams that will
show Marist a tough line up are
Manhattan, Siena, Iona, West-
chester, and Providence. These
are the so-called big time schools
that Marist must defeat in order
·to establish any kind of.name for
itself and attain its fir!1t
Metropolitan Collegiate Club
Football' title.
·
-Barring serious injury or a
sudden downshifting of attitudes,
_the Vikings have in their
possession the personnel to make
this the most exciting season
ever. In order to assure this
success there will be a strong
need for a uniffication of both
defensive and -offensive units.
This aspect alone will play a
dominant role in the future of the
Vikings this season and seasons
· to come,
-as they begin their tenth varsity job. The remainder of the
season. Coach -Howard Gold-
