Around _·our b u ~ ·

are

practically

no

,_
a lot of -questions;

One of the
,
most

persistent questions on this campus
·
is
"why
,
do
·
I go into the
cafeteria hungry
.
and come out. starving'?" In an effort
to
find the
answer to. this I approached the Saga·Food Manager: Art Blue.·
.
.
; -
I
·
knocked on
Mr.
·
Blue's
·
office door and was
.
greeted· by his
.
personal
_
secretary, a certain Miss Lola Lagrange. Miss Lagrange, who
·
~as
-
wearing an
"I like Art" button~ ushered me in !lnd left the room ..
,
·.
As
·
I approached
Mr .
.
Blue's desk, I found that he had just finished
.
up
.
a Carroll's Club Burger and was in the process of trying
·
to tie his
shoelace. I watched him attempt to do
.
this for about five minutes:
--
Finally he gave up, uttering: "I knew I should have gotten loafers.'' I
·
took a seat and the interview began;
·
O'Reilly: Good afternoon Mr; Blue
L...
_
Art: Why
is
it always me.
I
can't help the food. I like you kids,
look,
I
even have a beard.
.
.
O'R!'illy: I don't have any complaints, Mr. Blue, I just wanted to
find out a little about Saga foods.
·
,
Art: Oh, splendid. Call me Art. Let me give you a few
•
facts about
Saga. As you know Saga food
is
international.
·
-
-
O'Reilly: International'?
·
.
·

Art: Sure, we, cater the Russian labor camps in Siberia. Didn't yoµ
know that?

O'Reilly: No, but now that I think about, it

figures.
Art: Let me coritin'ue. Saga foods was started way back in Ancient
.
times by God.
.
-
O'Reilly: God started Saga foods'? I find that hard to believe.
Besides he's too busy watching Scotty grow.
·
Art: Listen, Scribe, when Moses asked for Manna from heaven
-
who doyouthiitk...
·
O'Reilly: Saga?
.
Art: You guessed it Stevie. And when Jesus
.
Christ multiplied the
loaves and fishes, where do you think he got
.
the basket of goodies to
-
·
start with?
·
O'Reilly: Saga again?
Art: Right on!
_
O'Reilly: That's amazing; but come to think of it, I had a piece of
fish here last night that tasted like it had been
.
around since the first
century.
I
took orte look at it, blessed it, and subtracted it by
throwing it out the window.
·
. .. ·
Art: That's pretty rotten considering there are people starving in
the world.
·
· O'Reilly: Yeah and most of them are at Marist. But
I
think about
the hungry. In fact the other day
I
put a stamp on one
.
of Saga's
chocolate
chip
cookies and sent
it'
to Korea. Yesterday they sent it
back with an obscene card.
·
·
Art: That's not funny.
,
O'Reilly; Okay, let's talk about something that is; like the student
employees.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Art: I've got a. great group here led by my protege
.
Ralph
Sincerely, Me and Ralph are kind of the Batman and Robin of Saga
foods.

O'Reilly: You don't say,
Art: Not only that but Ralph and I have bridged the generation
gap by wearing the same weird shirt and tie combinations;

The River
BY JOE RUBINO
.
·
·
The River. Does it
.
ever die?
It
often appears to
·
die. When the
world -collapses around me I sometimes imagine· that the River ·might
also fall victim to some indiscriminate killer. Cities die. Countries
die. Life styles die. People die. But the River, does it also die?
_
Last spring I climbed on to my roof overlooking the River,
·
and I
·
joined the River, the beautiful River, my beautiful River, in its
..
perpetual flow towards its inevitable goal. My mind was
·
pensive, and
.
the cool, deep, blue currents of my River held all the answers I was
seeking.
.
·
·
.
It was blue. That's what I ~emember most, th~ sparkling,
-
·
unash'amed, uninhibited blueness of its skipping, laughing waters as
.
.
it proclaimed loud enough for everyone on the roof to hear~
."1
am
Spring!"
···
The River was indeed Spring.
It
was the bluegreenyellowpink.
rebirth of. the temporarily deceased trees
·
who; for
.
the ·winter
months, had barely clung to the walls of the cliffs which embraced
the- River lovingly. Their lieretofore lifeless arms suddenly sprang up,
.
reached -:mt covered
-
abundantly with live, love, and thankfulness,
·
and
-
th~ trees cried out their song, "We love you!'-
-
_
_
.
The trees were thankfui. The leaves, each one ~oing its best
.
to
illustrate each individual tree's true personality,
-
began to tell the
·
world of the beautiful love it wanted to share: The River had set off
.
the perennial, universal chain reaction. The indifferent complacency
of winter could no longer hide what my wonderful, glorious River
was telling the world. Awaken! Live! Love!!!
.
_
Again it is winter.
·
For months, it seems like centuries, a stubborn,
ugly, half-broken shiel~ has foolishly attempted to put an end to
life, an end to love, and death to my River.
·
But, now, I know the time is near. Already I see it! Look. Then~.
A patch of blue. A sign of life. The shield·
is
doomed! Death is
doomed! I knew my River could not be denied! I knew that its
beauty would not die, although everything had died around it. I
knew that while the world was immersed in its tragic white slumber,
my brave, courageous, life-giving love-giving, Savior would not give
up its existence. It is going to win. It is going to live. It is going to
give the world new life, new hope. Oh, why did I ever doubt it?

This

When· Martin Luther
:
King was assassinated,

his wife reportedly
-
said, ~•God-willed it." Wonderful faith. But a poor concept of God.
A sorry sort of God. As soon as honor reaches
a
certain pitch; ~e
instinctively
-
.
divinize it. Only God is big enough
.
to -be capable ·of
such an atrocity. This is
a:
wrong idea of providence.
_
·
.
t
Everything does riot come from
.
.
God. Fatalism
:
is the grea
temptation of all religions. If someorie knocks on
_
y<>ur door/is he
automatically sent by providence? No, you know
·
that refusing to let
_
him
.
in can be just as "providential," as letting
.
him in
·
._ One author
_
says.
"If
God permits the suffering of a single chijd; when he could
·.
prevent it, niore I ain an atheist." God abandons himself to· man
when he gives hini the freedom he created. God respects the liberty_._
of his creatures. He does not wish evil and it would be blasphemous
·
to believe that he did. Neither does he allow
.
evil, as we say, as a sort·
_
of half-measure trying to defend God's responsibility and his power·
at once.
·
A
·
God who permits evil, a
·
God who is indifferent or
insensible
to
evil, is not the God of Jesus l:hrist. God is against evil.
He fights against it with all the means at his disposal; inspiring those
who struggle against it. He could not bear to see us suffer and die, so
he cai:ne to suffer and die to deliver us from evil by showing us a love
·
·
capable of overcoming all evil. His weapon is love, which to us seems
_
like weakness. Evil)s strong, admired, rich, organized, powerful. God
is like
_a
child on the battlefield of the world, fighting against evil
with empty
_
hands and bare head, wtthout hatred or violence,
continuing to
.
believe in his ultimate victory "When I have
·
been
lifted up,
I
will draw all things to me."
.
. _ .
God does not send us suffering; sickness and death; they are not:,
trials, penances or examinations. God treats us as free men.Yetthe{~
old Jewish idea of temporal retribution is still alive in all religions:
Suffering, sickness, misfortune is guilt. The Anglican Book of
Common Prayers comforts the sick .with the prayer, "Whatever the
illness, know first that it js sent by God." Yet on every page of the
Gospel, Christ
is
healing the sick, but who could.imagine he made
them
·
sick. God
·
revealed himself as consoler and we made him
afflicter.
· ·
Even death. Christ did not kill anyone; he raised from the dead,
· gave the son back to his mother, the brother back to his sister

.
About half of the enrollment
consisted of those who were
below average intelligence. I sat

in a math class for this grou1> and
was amazed at the progress
made by those individuals who
I
knew from childhood. The con

stant repetition of simple arith-
metic was giving them a
knowledge of the meaning of
money
.
This aspect of the
_
program is a tremend_ous suc-
cess.
The second half of the
enrollment are those who are of
average intelligence but because
of a learning problem or the
severity of their disability could
not enter high school. Their
program consists of basic high
school skills which are taught at a
much slower rate. There is also a
two day
a
week program for
those who have finished their
high school education but cannot
find employment.
I
believe that programs like
these are a necessary evil since
there is no place else for the
disabled to go. Because of the
poor
quality
of
primary
education, many cannot cope
v,;th the accelerated pace of high
school.

By
E:
Yaw Dame,
African leaders are acting like children and ~mature statesmen, for
The whole concept of Apartheid
is
based on historicism. There are
certain immutable laws. One such law being that· the · social,
economic _
and political environment of the African (Nigger) can
never be _divorced from_
his
nature. He was born barbaric, he was
born a slave. He was born ignorant and unintelligent. That
is
what
God made
him
and wants him to be. _ .
-
,
_
. - ··
The «unnatural" settlers of· South Africa, to ·wit, the whites,
uphold· the principle that the Blacks they met in South Africa can
.never·rise above their nature. They are wholly inferior and no matter
what . is · done to better their lot they will ever remain inferior.
Therefore, we -find two distinct classes of men
in South Africa,
namely, those chosen by God to settle in Africa to tell the Blacks ·
that they (the Blacks) are ignorant; and those Blacks whose lot is
never to see the light.even though the God-elect are performing their
duty to make them see.the.light.
It now becomes obvious to these
white people that the Blacks have empty heads, and, though God is
supposed to have created man in His likeness and image and
therefore given
him
the power of reasoning, these Blacks can never
assume equality with these most knowledgeable of men, the apostles
of civilization in South Africa.
·
The South African society is, therefore, filled with certain
regulations and laws of behavior for different groups of people. The
whites are the rulers and should not allow their ranks·. to be
infiltrated with '<the wretched of the earth." Therefore, to maintain
stability and.to follow the laws of nature demands that each group
should give eminence to its identity. The responsibility of·ruling is
distinguished from the responsibility of being ruled and being
enslaved.
PARALLEL:
DEVELOPMENT
_
Since these two groups are not. on equal footing and should,
therefore, not contaminate each other, the-ruling body should see to
it that the two groups are separated from .each other.
A
separate
society should be created for the "hewers of wood and drawers of
water," with their own government. But this government should, of
course, be supervised by the omniscient and omnicompetent body of
· white settlers. For, how and why, they, the whites; can leave a
bunch of ignoramuses to themselves' they would destroy the whole
fabric of South African society.
·
The white "masters" call this organization parallel_ development.
And when they drew the programme out they believed
it
was good.
So they blessed it and started implementing it, And _these African

be persuaded to. forget about ttieii age-old. policy of apartheid, ~he'

There _
are the moderates including Houpbonet-Boigny of Ivory

Busia of Ghana and some··inetitbers of O(:AM.,These •
believe that . we should· test the validity and the potency of a
diplomatic dialogue as a ,weapon against apartheid. That. is, w_e
should talk to South Africa to change its ways. They forget that this ·
has continually been aimed at the ~orutri of the_ United Nations
:Organization. They are however, backing out of-th~1r'.stand as recent
statements of theirs portray. They should, because 1t ~Q~ld mean,
first of all, recognizing the government of. South Afnca_..
It woul~
- also mean speaking for people who may be prepared to die for their
cause, and thereby discouraging them.
.
.
.
·
There_ is the speculation that these first two groups of _readers
believe that we can. achieve, something economically from our
contracts :w,ith_ South Africa. They forget that they would do so at~
the expense
of
the toils of our brothers and sisters in South Africa.
They also forget' that South Africa, a potential outlet and gateway
- . for the re-colonization of Africa, could facilitate and precipitate this
process of recolonization through diplomatic, economic and other
contacts and influence.

Anyhow, the leaders are unanimous in their condensations of the
apartheid regime of South. Africa. · They also .view the Tony
Government of Britain. as a defender of the apartheid regime. For
they look at the proposed resumption of Britain's sale of arms to
South Africa not as a part of the defense measures against the

a ten day streach (sic) in St.

It seems that some
people believe the Marist

there is nothing to be happy (or

Well, they are wrong, and I wish
to express this from the bottom
of my heart. The countless

importantly their time that they
gave to me was the emotional
lift of my present year here at

BY JACK GORDON
Any resemblance between the characters mentioned below and
real'people is completely in the mind of the reader ... and rightly so.
Circle: Firstly, congratulations on your new post of Associate
Director of Resonance.
·
Mr. Lamplit: Thank' You. We have found that resonance is a very
important thing in one's
life.
A strong voice brings a ;1ealthy mind.
And a healthy mind - good grades, and good grades a nice home, and
a
nice home...
·
·
·. Circle: Yes, well to begin our interview, is it true that to bring
objectivity to your position, and to follow the example of the state
universities of resonance, you
will
not be in direct contact with your
charges?
Mr. Lamplit: Yes, this is true. We have found that to educate a
person in resonance it is not necessary to actually have personal
contact with
him .
Circle; -But,being that resonance> is a quality that depends on the
development of the human voice, isn't verbal give and take
necessary.
Mr. Lamplit: Oh, no, no. Not at all. Resonance comes about
through the development of the vocal chords, and the muscles
0f
tl,e
throat. Since they are only muscles we send small sets of weights to
all our charges through the mail.
Circle: Oh, I see ... um ... oh ... Who will be the director of resonance .
next year?
.
Mr. Lamplit:
I
am so very, very happy to say that, by popular
demand Brendan Brendan will again head up our whole resonance
program.
Circle: Are you two the only officials in our resonance progra1i1'!
Mr. Lamplit: Oh no. There are many, many others. We have three
Mouth Masters, who are now being chosen from ten applicants. They
know everything about the mouth, they are remarkable' men. We
have Resonance Coordinators, and Resonant Advisors and Glandular
Assistants who are especially important to our program.
Circle: Why are these Glandular Assistants especially important?
Mr. Lamplit: Because, if it weren't for our program. they wo1Jld be
out of a job. Our whole program is very systematic; and efficient you
see. We have Resonant Advisors who are in closest contact witr. our
charges. They work with our pupils personally. They help them put
the little weights on their tongues and tell them how important
resonance is ... The Mouth Masters work on the whole mouth and the
Resonance Coordinators are thrown in wherever we can find work
for theIJl. It is all really very, very enjoyable.
Circle: This also sounds_ very, very costly.
Mr. Lamplit: Oh, it is!
Circle: The new Mouth Masters that are being chosen, how is this
being made?
MrLamplit: Oh, That's easy. Our resonance board picks them. The
resonance board consists of mostly our pupils.
Circle: Oh, the Resonance Board votes on all ten app licants anc
the top three get to be Mouth Masters.
· ,. ·· ·
Mr. Lan'lplit: Oh, no, that wouldn't be right. They make
recommendations and Brendan Brendan and myself ·choose who we
want and give our choices to D.N. Wade for the final decision.
Circle: Oh, then D.N. Wade must be the ultimate authority on
resonance and t:·,e_ human voice in general.
Mr. Lamplit: OH no, he's a plumber.
Circle:
01!, Well, I must go, I have to hitch back to campus. Good
Bye, and Thanks.

Nader's Earth
Acti~n Group
An Earth Action Group made
up of high school students across
the nation is being organized
by
Ralph Nader. The Earth Action
Group will raise funds to finance
teams of lawyers and scientists
who will battle environmental
crime in urban and rural areas.
· Raising funds to support local
citizen advocate groups will be
the Group's central focus during
EARTH•
ACTION WEEK,
April
19-25.
.
"Earth Day 1970," Nader said,
"was an important event. It
played a k~y role in• raising the
level of environmental con-
sciousness. In 1971, however, it is
necessary to switch the
focus
from educational activities to
action strategies calculated to
effect change. It is also necessary
to more comprehensi"t\!ly define
· environmental hazards to include
impoverished city slums and
occupational hazards along with
the contamination of the natural
habitat of our land, air and water.
"Ignoring these dangers, · the
large corporations have em-
barked on an advertising cam-
paign to desensitize public
concern · over these crucial
problems confronting the people.
Corporate 3idvertisements carry
the message that the public need
not be concerned about the en-
vironment, that oil refineries are
good for ducks, that timber
cutting preserves forests, and
that gasoline can keep the air
clean. At the same time, industry
is thwarting public and govern-
mental action against these
epidemics of pollution.
"The time has come to blow the
whistle on those who would lay
waste the earth. Full time public
interest advocates must
be
set
to
work in every state to reveal the
sources of pollution and use every
legal means to halt it."
