Joining this was banjo play-

entertainment at the Feddeck rally
was provided by the Frobisher Bay
Volunteers, Richie McKay, Bruce

tertainment was to be found in the
presence of a small bevy of female
button-putter-oners from
Dutchess
College.
Food, a major attraction at Marist,
consisted in cake and soda at the Sul-
livan rally and cookies and soda at
Feddeck's.

rallies swing any votes? Who knows.

by Ray Stewart
The hustle and bustle of the cam-
paign committees has ceased, the post-
ers are down and a semblance of quiet
again reigns in the corridors.
Mr. Michael B
.
Feddeck, the new
President, gave this comment after
his election:
"A
President of the Stu-
dent Government should qe repr
:
e
sentative of all the students in the col-
lege and be able to rely upon the
support of the student body .
.
It is my
earnest desire to achieve these ideals
with the
full
co-operation of the Coun-
cil and the student body."
"To the victors in this election

fer my congratulations; to the losers
I offer thanks to them for their enthu-
siastic participation in this most im-
portant aspect of college life."
Mr. James Waters
,
who now as-
sumes the position of the Vice-Presi-
dent of the Student Council, gave the
following statement: ". . . I would
like to thank the student body for
their gratifying vote of confidence. I

sure you that the position of Vice-
President will innovate, not stagnate."
The other candidate for the office
of President of the Student Council,
Mr
.
James Sullivan, graciously offered
to render his services for the better-
ment of the college when he said
,
"I
congratulate Mr. Feddeck on his vic-
tory and offer him my utmost support
in any manner which he suggests. We
both ran exhausting campaigns and
now that they are over
I sincerely
hope that, not only we as individu-
als, but the entire campus can return
to a state of normalcy. I wish his ad-
ministration the
best of luck and look
forward to it being perhaps one of
the most productive Councils that
Marist College has ever seen."
Mr. John Zottoli, the aspirant for
the position of Junior Representative,
has resigned from the Student Gov-
ernment. He stated that The March
3rd election results had "no effect on
his resigning" from the Student Gov-
ernment. He said that, "A liberal arts
education requires pondering, relat-
ing college studies and outside ex-
perience. Because I could not do this
significant thinking and serve on the
Student Government simultaneously,
I
resigned from the government."

This is not a political debate. In
fact it is not a debate. It is rather a
social suggestion. The term conserva-
tive has too often been associated
with politics. For a change conserva-
tive dress will be considered. To most
students this type of dress may be la-
beled
"
Collegiate
."
The name proba
-
bly evolved from the fact that in the
eyes of the public the seemingly typ-
ical college students ( The pace set-
ters: Yale, Harvard
,
Princeton etc.)
have always been and wil1 always be
conservative dressers
.
The so-called
"continental look" was a dud with
them.
While some were buying spiked
heels and pointed toes
,
the "real col-
legiates" were wearing brown and
white saddle shoE.s or a pair of grub-
bv white tennis shoes; but these are
the extremes and not of major con~
cern.
It
is basic conservative dress
that should be mastered before far-
out fads are even to be considered
.
A picture then, of the well dressed
collegiate. First, the sport coat.
Tweeds and herringbones are best to
start with ( blazers are fine
,
but quite
common). The coat should not have
two vents in the back, but rather one.
The pockets should be on a horizon-
tal line, AND ABOVE ALL, KEEP
THE LAPELS AND DO NOT PUT
-
A BELT ON THE BACK (although
this idioUc mania seems to
·
be dying)
.
Next, the shirt. The traditional oxford
cloth, with button down collars is the
perfect shirt. Perhaµs the best colors
are blue
,
yellow and white. in that or-
der. The tie: A tie can make or break
a
person
dress-wise.
Regimental
stripes are naturally included in any
good tie rack, but the everlasting
print is equally important. The width
of the tie should be at least two inch-
es
.
.
vVhen it comes to ties, however
,
the inexperienced should always in-
quire from
.
someone who has devel-
oped a taste for ties
.
As a matter of
fact, this rule should be applied to
the
·
purchase of every item in the
·
wardrobe until a basic taste has been
acquired. Pants: DO NOT BUY
THEM WITH HO RIZO NT AL SLITS
FOR POCKETS; DO NOT BUY
THEM TO FIT SKIN TIGHT, AND
ABOVE ALL DO NOT BUY THEM
WITHOUT CUFFS
.
Sox: the safest rule is: Do not wear
white sox when wearing a coat and
tie, and of cot1Tse
NEV ER
with a suit.
Shoes: Cordovans and penny loaf-
ers are fine, hut
if you cannot bring
vourself to wear them remember: no
high heels, pointed toes, snaps, buc-
.
kles, buttons, or zippers.
From head to foot, that is a crude
but basic outline.
If
it is followed you
cannot go too far wrong but you
will
make mistakes
.
by Richard Karol
The Student Council, while its en-
deavors are often concerned with stu-
dent affairs and organizations, also
has an interest in student social week-
end activity. Last Friday, the Coun-
cil sponsored a Black Whale held
from 8-12 p
.
m
.
in Adrian Lounge
.
Folk music was provided by the
Frobisher Bay Volunteers, and free
beer was served. The hootenany was
followed by records and dancing.
The Student Council, realizing the
gap created by those weekends when
no activities are scheduled, provides
these Black Whales as a pleasant
place on campus to take a girl and
spend an a1vening.
The Bla.:k Whales are provided
free of charge, with tickets available
from any Student Council member.
These affairs are a prelude to next
year's '1ong awaited" Rathskeller to
which students ,vill be able to bring
their girls and have a good time.

of the students on this campus ought to read one of the state-

I!
How can students or "young adults," and we shudder to use the term
"young adults," because that is exactly what they are not, be trained to love
and respect their country if they can not even be taught to respe~t
the property on which they reside? We are referring particularly to the abomi-
nable accumulation of miscellaneous debris between Leo Hall and the Chap-
lain's Residence. Even if we as individuals are content to live in a veritable
pigstv can we not muster up enough pride in our school, and really in our-
selveS: to at least present a neat appearance to our visitors? Things were not
so bad when all the miscellaneous odds and ends were covered by snow, but
now that spring is imminent we can proudly present a most beautiful vista of
beer bottles, broken plates, cans, containers, old sweat clothes and waste
paper. Such a display would initiate response and civic action from even the
worst slum area in the most backward community.

able to apply for Federal aid to underdeveloped communities.

The Liturgy
_
by Bro. Felix Michael
A.
Shurkus
"Having
eyes they do not see
.
.
. ,,
Having ears they do not hear . . . ( Ps.
113)
Recently, I asked one of the College men on campus how he felt about
the new liturgy, especially the use of English in the Mass. "Like an architect
gazing at a magnificent building," he said. I was puzzled and asked him to
elaborate. "Well," he went on, "to the average layman, most buildings appear
to be nothing more than
a
mass of bricks, mortar and reinforced concrete, But
to the eve of a successful architect, a well constructed building is a visual
delight. He sees a beauty and majesty in it-lines, forms, structural elements-
which the ordinary layman misses completely. Before the new changes were
introduced into the liturgy,
I
felt pretty much like the layman who looked and
saw verv little. Now I feel more like the architect!"
In so far as the analogy expressed his thought rather adequately,
I
was
impressed by his feelings about the new liturgy. Undoubtedly, even on a mere-
ly external basis, the liturgy, particularly its most sacred act, the Mass,
is
a
thing of beauty.
It
is a meaningful and colorful enactment of one of the most
sublime mvsteries of our Faith, capable of producing a powerful aesthetic
effect upon· the mind and spirit of the beholder. And now that the use of the
vernacular in the Mass has enhanced many of its historical and deeply sym-
bolic actions-long obscured by the use of Latin-the enjoyment of ass-isting
at ~fass becomes even greater. Yet, to view the liturgy and the Mass merely on
this external level of sight perception-beautiful as it is-is indeed truly to miss
the forest because of the trees.
The liturgy is first and foremost an act of worship. It is the public worship
of the ~fystical Body of Christ, Head and members. Or more precisely, it is the
public actions of You, Me, the Priest and Christ Himself-the entire Chur~-
all offering together the gifts of our worship to the External Father. Of its
very nature, the liturgy must be the soc~al expression of the corporate worship
of the entire Christian community. This corporate worship is best expressed in
the \-lass which is at one and the sarrie time a sacrifice of infinite value by
which we show our complete dependence upon Cod and a sacrificial banquet
by which we can attain a high degree of union and fellowship with God.
Under both aspects, the Mass demands a fully active participation on our
part-certainly much more than the passive presence of an architect viewing
the beauty of
a
building. Assisting at Mass should mean exactly that-a giving
of our complete assistance, speaking and singing, hearing and seeing, under-
standing
and
appreciating, together with our fellowman, in order to offer to
Cod the worship that is so rightfully His. Assisting at Mass does not mean
praving
at
Mass, but rather praying the Mass.
·
·
· Full active participation in the liturgy, expressed both internally and
externally, not only affords us the delights of the expert craftsman in behold-
ing a product of his trade, but much more than this, it
is
productive of a
dynamic
life experience involving the total person-an experience from which
we can draw lasting inspiration and spiritual strength.
Perhaps my young College colleague should have used the analogy of a
folk song enthusiast assisting at a Hootenany. As much as th
.
e comparison
limps,
I
think it would have expressed his feelings about the new lihtrgy
much better.

Dear Mr. Editor:
I
wculd like to congratulate. the
staff of Circle for their excellent job
on the first issue of a truly College
newspaper;
·
·
··
· ·
·
You have accomplished what your
predecessors failed
to do by
making
your publication "a hotbed of contro-
versy" and a voice of importance. For
the first time this year, students have
become genuinely interested in what
someone else has to say and have
voiced their own opinions on the is-
sues that involve each of them.
Surely you cannot expect to please
everyone but the important factor is
that everyone is interested in you and
you can make the students of Marist
realize what their responsibility as
students demands.
Again I extend my congratulations
and
I
wish you success in your future
publications.
Dear Editor:
Respectfully yours,
Robert E. Mathews
'67
The appearance of the CIRCLE on
campus has given rise to latent emo-
tions of the
.
student bodv. As the fo-
cal point of the interstudent commu-
nication the newspaper should make
an earnest attempt to present the arti-
cles both fairly and in an unbiased
manner. The initial issue has failed to
accomplish either of these aims.
After four days of consideration
I
am still unable to fathom the mean-
ing of° the absurd attempt at a cartoon
which I noticed on page 3. Perhaps
in your role as the overseer of the-
CIRCLE you could decipher some of
the rational elements therein con-
tained, if they exist.
Another point of the editorial col-
umn presents a very profoµnd state-
ment of policy which I expected
would be adhered to by the members
of the publication. That being, "Re-
sorting to immature and blatant
methods of criticism to attain an end
is never justified and seldmn effec-
·
tive." However, the immediate
arti•
cle, "BA TTLECROUND MARIST,''
is an oblivious (sic) paradox. Fur-
thermore, I am sure that the author
must have intended to criticize the
viewpoints of the author alluded to,
and not him personally.
Lastly, I was surprised to learn that
the article on the Student Govern-
ment meeting concerning the amend-
.
ment to the election code was writ-
ten bv an individual who had achtal-
ly attended that session. Perhaps he
should have his audiometer repaired.
It
is not accurate to any reasonable
extent.
Sincerely yours,
Paul
R.

One of the strongest, yet often over-
looked points of a liberal arts curric-
ulum is that of Physical Education.
Its values are extremely important
and the results of a well-handled pro-
gram in it can be of great benefit to
the individual. Yet too many high
schools and colleges pass off this
course as "gym," a free for all, lightly.
supervised recreational period, invit-
ing fun but not education.
The Physical Education depart-
ment at Marist College heads away
from this direction. It appears to hold
the value of athletic endeavors as an
integral part of · the individual's
growth in mind and body. The devel-
opment of one's physical capabilities
often tend to aid the development of
better mental attitude and strengths.
Mind and body are closely united,
and a well balanced athletic JJrogram
can bring about a greater understand-
inp; and control of the mind by de-
veloping understanding and control
of the body.
There are other values of physical
education. Sports is an important part.
of modern American society.
As a
rec-
reational activitv, its benefits are in-
numerable. Besides being a specta-
tor, anyone can participate in a num-
ber of sports for relaxation and en-
joyment. One of the aims of the phys-
ical education program at Marist is to
develop a greater understanding of
sports, hoping for a greater partici-
pation and appreciation of its individ-
ual values.
It
can generally be said that there
are t'hree kinds of athletes: natural
·
athletes, who possess extremely good
co-ordination and sense of play; av-
erage athletes, who, with practice,
generally are able to adapt to most
sports and activities; and popr ath-
1.etes, who have often an undeveloped
sense of agility and their learning of
new sports comes hard. Marist's phys-
ical education program favors none
·
of these groups and gives everyone
an equal opportunity
.
to achieve a
good grade in the course. By a num-
ber of essays, ranging in topic from
"The Imoortance of Play in Amer-
ica" to "the Values of Tumbling,"
and a written final exam, even a non-
athlete is ~iven the chance to elimi-
nate the edge a varsity athlete might
have on him. But still this individual
must develop a certain basic number
of physical skills that are more im-
.
portant than the written part of the
course
.
Beginning the year with a general
calisthenics program, the students are
given a chance to put into shape
muscles that they will be using dur-
ing the year and gain the strength
and co-ordination that these exercises
afford. Then with an eve on under-
standing through participating, a
numher of sports are learned, begin-
ning with the hasic fundamentals and
ending with the use of learned skills
in actual nlav. Students are then
graded on thei; actual gra~p and utili-
zation of these competitive skills.
MARIST COLLEGE
Pat Collum, Marist's
123
pound wrestler, moves into a pinning combination
against ·his Yeshiva College poponent. Collum's efforts were the initial
impetus to Marist's strong team-victory.
MATMEN FINISH COMPETITION
WITH VICTORY OVER YESHIVA
With an eye toward next year, the
1964-65
Marist Wrestling Team closed
their season with an impressive win
over Yeshiva University . .
Bringing
their record to two wins and nin~
losses, the squad boasts of no gradu-
ating lettermen. "With a team of
freshmen and sophomores, lack of ex-
perience always hurts," thinks Coach
Mike Schultz. But he feels that the
experience gained by this year's squad
will see
a
great improvement in next
season's competition.
The outstanding wrestler of the
year was freshman Ambrose "Butch"
Tardive, with
a
9-2 record in compe-
tition. Other team members who
were praised by Coach Schultz were
Mike Hackett and Bob Langenbach,
sophomore co-captains. Sophomores
Pat Collum, Joe Esposito, Charlie
McDermott and Ed Keane were reg-
ulars who gave impressive perform-
ances throughout the year. They were
joined by freshmen Pete Heindriech
and Jim Croteau with the late season
efforts of junior John Williams. Ed
Labuda, Joe Brosnan and
f
ohn Theiss
were freshmen who gave reserve
strength. Collum, Tardive, and La-
buda were considering A.A. U. co~pe-
tition as representatives of Marist for
the development and experience the
open tournament offers.
Freshman Uagers Hustle
to Finest Season Ever
The surprise of the winter athletic
season was the fine showing that the
Marist freshmen basketball team pre-
sented. Coached by Poctor Howard
Goldman, the team finished their sea-
-son with an impressive
9-8
record.
This included a 5-1 record in the con-
ference, earning them second place in
the freshmen competition.
In
the final game of the season, the
squad ·handed the conference cham-
pions, Monmouth College, their only
conference loss.
The
82 - 62
defeat
gave Monmouth a 7-1 record ~nd
they still remained on top. Lea~n~
scorer in that game was Butch M1lh-
gan with nineteen points. He was
closely followed by Vincent Boccali-

requirements. The gymnasium is open

outside of class. By stimulating this
interest in sports a greater knowledge
of intramural

and varsity sports is
gained. By learning an activity in
class, a student is interested in pari,,
ticioatin~ in intramural competition
which often results in the develop-
ment of varsity proficiency.
What is important is participation
as the kev to al.)preciation. At Marist
each student is given the chance to
understand the values of sports to

Year's Disappointing End
By losing eleven of their last thir-
teen ball games, the Marist College
varsity basketball team brought their
record to six wins and seventeen loss-
es. Plagued by late season injuries and
a resulting inexperience, the Marist
five found trouble· in'. locating. the
range from the field and limiting their
moving violations. Despite these ob-
stacles they often looked strong for
a
few periods at a ti
'
me, although they
were unable to come up with too
many strong games.
The most impressive performance
of the season was against Philadel-
phia Textiles,
a
top ranked small col-
lege.
In
following games, regu_lars
John Murphy, Jim Clancy, Bernie
Dooley, Gary Henderson and
Mike
Borelli of ten had impressive individ-
ual showings, but had

trouble in over-
all team scoring. Thev were joined
on the court in their efforts by Den-
nis O'Brien, Gus Di Florio, Tom Fin-

Arold, though disappointed with some
of his team's play, has high hopes for
next season when all of his lettermen
are expected to return with the ben-
efit of this year's experience.

The hustle and bustle of the cam-
paign committees has ceased, the post-
ers are down and a semblance of quiet
again reigns in the corridors.
Mr. Michael B
.
Feddeck, the new
President, gave this comment after
his election:
"A
President of the Stu-
dent Government should qe repr

e
sentative of all the students in the col-
lege and be able to rely upon the

.
It is my

cil and the student body."
"To the victors in this election

fer my congratulations; to the losers
I offer thanks to them for their enthu-
siastic participation in this most im-
portant aspect of college life."
Mr. James Waters
,
who now as-
sumes the position of the Vice-Presi-
dent of the Student Council, gave the
following statement: ". . . I would

sure you that the position of Vice-
President will innovate, not stagnate."
The other candidate for the office
of President of the Student Council,
Mr
.
James Sullivan, graciously offered
to render his services for the better-
ment of the college when he said
,
"I
congratulate Mr. Feddeck on his vic-
tory and offer him my utmost support
in any manner which he suggests. We
both ran exhausting campaigns and
now that they are over
I sincerely
hope that, not only we as individu-
als, but the entire campus can return
to a state of normalcy. I wish his ad-
ministration the
best of luck and look
forward to it being perhaps one of
the most productive Councils that
Marist College has ever seen."
Mr. John Zottoli, the aspirant for
the position of Junior Representative,
has resigned from the Student Gov-
ernment. He stated that The March
3rd election results had "no effect on
his resigning" from the Student Gov-
ernment. He said that, "A liberal arts
education requires pondering, relat-
ing college studies and outside ex-
perience. Because I could not do this
significant thinking and serve on the
Student Government simultaneously,

This is not a political debate. In
fact it is not a debate. It is rather a
social suggestion. The term conserva-
tive has too often been associated
with politics. For a change conserva-
tive dress will be considered. To most
students this type of dress may be la-
beled
"
Collegiate
."
The name proba
-
bly evolved from the fact that in the
eyes of the public the seemingly typ-
ical college students ( The pace set-
ters: Yale, Harvard
,
Princeton etc.)
have always been and wil1 always be
conservative dressers
.
The so-called
"continental look" was a dud with
them.
While some were buying spiked
heels and pointed toes
,
the "real col-
legiates" were wearing brown and
white saddle shoE.s or a pair of grub-
bv white tennis shoes; but these are
the extremes and not of major con~
cern.
It
is basic conservative dress
that should be mastered before far-
out fads are even to be considered
.
A picture then, of the well dressed
collegiate. First, the sport coat.
Tweeds and herringbones are best to
start with ( blazers are fine
,
but quite
common). The coat should not have
two vents in the back, but rather one.
The pockets should be on a horizon-
tal line, AND ABOVE ALL, KEEP
THE LAPELS AND DO NOT PUT
-
A BELT ON THE BACK (although
this idioUc mania seems to
·
be dying)
.
Next, the shirt. The traditional oxford
cloth, with button down collars is the
perfect shirt. Perhaµs the best colors
are blue
,
yellow and white. in that or-
der. The tie: A tie can make or break
a
person
dress-wise.
Regimental
stripes are naturally included in any
good tie rack, but the everlasting
print is equally important. The width
of the tie should be at least two inch-
es
.
.
vVhen it comes to ties, however
,
the inexperienced should always in-
quire from
.
someone who has devel-
oped a taste for ties
.
As a matter of
fact, this rule should be applied to
the
·
purchase of every item in the
·
wardrobe until a basic taste has been
acquired. Pants: DO NOT BUY
THEM WITH HO RIZO NT AL SLITS
FOR POCKETS; DO NOT BUY
THEM TO FIT SKIN TIGHT, AND
ABOVE ALL DO NOT BUY THEM
WITHOUT CUFFS
.
Sox: the safest rule is: Do not wear
white sox when wearing a coat and
tie, and of cot1Tse

The Student Council, while its en-
deavors are often concerned with stu-
dent affairs and organizations, also
has an interest in student social week-
end activity. Last Friday, the Coun-
cil sponsored a Black Whale held
from 8-12 p
.
m
.
in Adrian Lounge
.
Folk music was provided by the
Frobisher Bay Volunteers, and free
beer was served. The hootenany was
followed by records and dancing.
The Student Council, realizing the
gap created by those weekends when
no activities are scheduled, provides
these Black Whales as a pleasant
place on campus to take a girl and
spend an a1vening.
The Bla.:k Whales are provided
free of charge, with tickets available
from any Student Council member.
These affairs are a prelude to next
year's '1ong awaited" Rathskeller to
which students ,vill be able to bring
their girls and have a good time.

OPERATION CLEANUP

of the students on this campus ought to read one of the state-
ments made on page seven of the Marist College Catalog. " . . . to train him
for citizenship through an intellectual appreciation of democratic principles
and
a
love of
and
a respect for his country."
I!
How can students or "young adults," and we shudder to use the term
"young adults," because that is exactly what they are not, be trained to love
and respect their country if they can not even be taught to respe~t
the property on which they reside? We are referring particularly to the abomi-
nable accumulation of miscellaneous debris between Leo Hall and the Chap-
lain's Residence. Even if we as individuals are content to live in a veritable
pigstv can we not muster up enough pride in our school, and really in our-
selveS: to at least present a neat appearance to our visitors? Things were not
so bad when all the miscellaneous odds and ends were covered by snow, but
now that spring is imminent we can proudly present a most beautiful vista of
beer bottles, broken plates, cans, containers, old sweat clothes and waste
paper. Such a display would initiate response and civic action from even the
worst slum area in the most backward community.
!\farist "Men?" hold your heads high, with a display like this we might be
able to apply for Federal aid to underdeveloped communities.

The Liturgy
_
by Bro. Felix Michael
A.
Shurkus
"Having
eyes they do not see
.
.
. ,,
Having ears they do not hear . . . ( Ps.
113)
Recently, I asked one of the College men on campus how he felt about
the new liturgy, especially the use of English in the Mass. "Like an architect
gazing at a magnificent building," he said. I was puzzled and asked him to
elaborate. "Well," he went on, "to the average layman, most buildings appear
to be nothing more than
a
mass of bricks, mortar and reinforced concrete, But
to the eve of a successful architect, a well constructed building is a visual
delight. He sees a beauty and majesty in it-lines, forms, structural elements-
which the ordinary layman misses completely. Before the new changes were
introduced into the liturgy,
I
felt pretty much like the layman who looked and
saw verv little. Now I feel more like the architect!"
In so far as the analogy expressed his thought rather adequately,
I
was
impressed by his feelings about the new liturgy. Undoubtedly, even on a mere-
ly external basis, the liturgy, particularly its most sacred act, the Mass,
is
a
thing of beauty.
It
is a meaningful and colorful enactment of one of the most
sublime mvsteries of our Faith, capable of producing a powerful aesthetic
effect upon· the mind and spirit of the beholder. And now that the use of the
vernacular in the Mass has enhanced many of its historical and deeply sym-
bolic actions-long obscured by the use of Latin-the enjoyment of ass-isting
at ~fass becomes even greater. Yet, to view the liturgy and the Mass merely on
this external level of sight perception-beautiful as it is-is indeed truly to miss
the forest because of the trees.
The liturgy is first and foremost an act of worship. It is the public worship
of the ~fystical Body of Christ, Head and members. Or more precisely, it is the
public actions of You, Me, the Priest and Christ Himself-the entire Chur~-
all offering together the gifts of our worship to the External Father. Of its
very nature, the liturgy must be the soc~al expression of the corporate worship
of the entire Christian community. This corporate worship is best expressed in
the \-lass which is at one and the sarrie time a sacrifice of infinite value by
which we show our complete dependence upon Cod and a sacrificial banquet
by which we can attain a high degree of union and fellowship with God.
Under both aspects, the Mass demands a fully active participation on our
part-certainly much more than the passive presence of an architect viewing
the beauty of
a
building. Assisting at Mass should mean exactly that-a giving
of our complete assistance, speaking and singing, hearing and seeing, under-
standing
and
appreciating, together with our fellowman, in order to offer to
Cod the worship that is so rightfully His. Assisting at Mass does not mean
praving
at
Mass, but rather praying the Mass.
·
·
· Full active participation in the liturgy, expressed both internally and
externally, not only affords us the delights of the expert craftsman in behold-
ing a product of his trade, but much more than this, it
is
productive of a
dynamic
life experience involving the total person-an experience from which
we can draw lasting inspiration and spiritual strength.
Perhaps my young College colleague should have used the analogy of a
folk song enthusiast assisting at a Hootenany. As much as th
.
e comparison
limps,
I
think it would have expressed his feelings about the new lihtrgy
much better.

LETTERS
Dear Mr. Editor:
I
wculd like to congratulate. the
staff of Circle for their excellent job
on the first issue of a truly College
newspaper;
·
·
··
· ·
·
You have accomplished what your
predecessors failed
to do by
making
your publication "a hotbed of contro-
versy" and a voice of importance. For
the first time this year, students have
become genuinely interested in what
someone else has to say and have
voiced their own opinions on the is-
sues that involve each of them.
Surely you cannot expect to please
everyone but the important factor is
that everyone is interested in you and
you can make the students of Marist
realize what their responsibility as
students demands.
Again I extend my congratulations
and
I
wish you success in your future
publications.
Dear Editor:
Respectfully yours,
Robert E. Mathews
'67
The appearance of the CIRCLE on
campus has given rise to latent emo-
tions of the
.
student bodv. As the fo-
cal point of the interstudent commu-
nication the newspaper should make
an earnest attempt to present the arti-
cles both fairly and in an unbiased
manner. The initial issue has failed to
accomplish either of these aims.
After four days of consideration
I
am still unable to fathom the mean-
ing of° the absurd attempt at a cartoon
which I noticed on page 3. Perhaps
in your role as the overseer of the-
CIRCLE you could decipher some of
the rational elements therein con-
tained, if they exist.
Another point of the editorial col-
umn presents a very profoµnd state-
ment of policy which I expected
would be adhered to by the members
of the publication. That being, "Re-
sorting to immature and blatant
methods of criticism to attain an end
is never justified and seldmn effec-
·
tive." However, the immediate
arti•
cle, "BA TTLECROUND MARIST,''
is an oblivious (sic) paradox. Fur-
thermore, I am sure that the author
must have intended to criticize the
viewpoints of the author alluded to,
and not him personally.
Lastly, I was surprised to learn that
the article on the Student Govern-
ment meeting concerning the amend-
.
ment to the election code was writ-
ten bv an individual who had achtal-
ly attended that session. Perhaps he
should have his audiometer repaired.
It
is not accurate to any reasonable
extent.
Sincerely yours,
Paul

One of the strongest, yet often over-
looked points of a liberal arts curric-
ulum is that of Physical Education.
Its values are extremely important
and the results of a well-handled pro-
gram in it can be of great benefit to
the individual. Yet too many high
schools and colleges pass off this
course as "gym," a free for all, lightly.
supervised recreational period, invit-
ing fun but not education.
The Physical Education depart-
ment at Marist College heads away
from this direction. It appears to hold
the value of athletic endeavors as an
integral part of · the individual's
growth in mind and body. The devel-
opment of one's physical capabilities
often tend to aid the development of
better mental attitude and strengths.
Mind and body are closely united,
and a well balanced athletic JJrogram
can bring about a greater understand-
inp; and control of the mind by de-
veloping understanding and control
of the body.
There are other values of physical
education. Sports is an important part.
of modern American society.
As a
rec-
reational activitv, its benefits are in-
numerable. Besides being a specta-
tor, anyone can participate in a num-
ber of sports for relaxation and en-
joyment. One of the aims of the phys-
ical education program at Marist is to
develop a greater understanding of
sports, hoping for a greater partici-
pation and appreciation of its individ-
ual values.
It
can generally be said that there
are t'hree kinds of athletes: natural
·
athletes, who possess extremely good
co-ordination and sense of play; av-
erage athletes, who, with practice,
generally are able to adapt to most
sports and activities; and popr ath-
1.etes, who have often an undeveloped
sense of agility and their learning of
new sports comes hard. Marist's phys-
ical education program favors none
·
of these groups and gives everyone
an equal opportunity
.
to achieve a
good grade in the course. By a num-
ber of essays, ranging in topic from
"The Imoortance of Play in Amer-
ica" to "the Values of Tumbling,"
and a written final exam, even a non-
athlete is ~iven the chance to elimi-
nate the edge a varsity athlete might
have on him. But still this individual
must develop a certain basic number
of physical skills that are more im-
.
portant than the written part of the
course
.
Beginning the year with a general
calisthenics program, the students are
given a chance to put into shape
muscles that they will be using dur-
ing the year and gain the strength
and co-ordination that these exercises
afford. Then with an eve on under-
standing through participating, a
numher of sports are learned, begin-
ning with the hasic fundamentals and
ending with the use of learned skills
in actual nlav. Students are then
graded on thei; actual gra~p and utili-
zation of these competitive skills.
MARIST COLLEGE
Pat Collum, Marist's
123
pound wrestler, moves into a pinning combination
against ·his Yeshiva College poponent. Collum's efforts were the initial
impetus to Marist's strong team-victory.
MATMEN FINISH COMPETITION
WITH VICTORY OVER YESHIVA
With an eye toward next year, the
1964-65
Marist Wrestling Team closed
their season with an impressive win
over Yeshiva University . .
Bringing
their record to two wins and nin~
losses, the squad boasts of no gradu-
ating lettermen. "With a team of
freshmen and sophomores, lack of ex-
perience always hurts," thinks Coach
Mike Schultz. But he feels that the
experience gained by this year's squad
will see
a
great improvement in next
season's competition.
The outstanding wrestler of the
year was freshman Ambrose "Butch"
Tardive, with
a
9-2 record in compe-
tition. Other team members who
were praised by Coach Schultz were
Mike Hackett and Bob Langenbach,
sophomore co-captains. Sophomores
Pat Collum, Joe Esposito, Charlie
McDermott and Ed Keane were reg-
ulars who gave impressive perform-
ances throughout the year. They were
joined by freshmen Pete Heindriech
and Jim Croteau with the late season
efforts of junior John Williams. Ed
Labuda, Joe Brosnan and
f
ohn Theiss
were freshmen who gave reserve
strength. Collum, Tardive, and La-
buda were considering A.A. U. co~pe-
tition as representatives of Marist for
the development and experience the
open tournament offers.
Freshman Uagers Hustle
to Finest Season Ever
The surprise of the winter athletic
season was the fine showing that the
Marist freshmen basketball team pre-
sented. Coached by Poctor Howard
Goldman, the team finished their sea-
-son with an impressive
9-8
record.
This included a 5-1 record in the con-
ference, earning them second place in
the freshmen competition.
In
the final game of the season, the
squad ·handed the conference cham-
pions, Monmouth College, their only
conference loss.
The
82 - 62
defeat
gave Monmouth a 7-1 record ~nd
they still remained on top. Lea~n~
scorer in that game was Butch M1lh-
gan with nineteen points. He was
closely followed by Vincent Boccali-
To the
·
individual at Marist this
program is extremely valuable. Be-
sides the greater awareness of the
importance of sports to himself,
he
gets to learn how to develop his phys-
ical catiabilities beyond the normal
requirements. The gymnasium is open
all the time for use by anyone-wish-
ing to use its facilities. Each stud:n~
is encouraged to develoT? the sk1lh1
he's learnin~ in Physical Education
outside of class. By stimulating this
interest in sports a greater knowledge
of intramural
.
and varsity sports is
gained. By learning an activity in
class, a student is interested in pari,,
ticioatin~ in intramural competition
which often results in the develop-
ment of varsity proficiency.
What is important is participation
as the kev to al.)preciation. At Marist
each student is given the chance to
understand the values of sports to
himself and encouraged to make use
of athletics to better prepare him-
self for modern life.
ni with eighteen, Jeff Kegler with six-
teen, and Richy Schneider with .fif-
teen points.
Coach Goldman was very impressed
by the hustle and fight the boys con-
stantly displayed. Although their size
is not spectacular, the coaching staff
expects this freshman team to

Led by some timely shooting and
strong defensive work, the Student
Brothers, on February·
.
23rd, defeat-
ed the College Varsity 72-57. At half-
time, with the score 29-28 in favor
of the Brothers, it looked to all ap-
pearan~e~, like anybody's game. As
the
.
third quarter began, however, the
Brothers sent a barrage of baskets
through the hoo:p, and slowly put the
game out of reach.
.
The Scholastics, who were beatell
in a previous duel, were out to win
this one, arid kent a constant. pres-
sure on the backcourt men, while
pulling down most of the rebounds.
Bro. Joseph McKenna was high
scorer in the game with 28 ooints. He
was followed bv Bro. Raymond
·
Arm-
strong ( 16): Bro. Eugene Luttrell
( 12):
·
Bro. Dennis DaRos ( 8); and
Bro. Francis. O'Rourke ( 8)..
High scorer for the Varsity was
Garrv Henderson ( 11); followed by
Tim Clancy (IO); John Mumby
(8);
Tom Murray (8); and Bob Casey (8).

Varsity Sh~ters Limp
to
Year's Disappointing End
By losing eleven of their last thir-
teen ball games, the Marist College
varsity basketball team brought their
record to six wins and seventeen loss-
es. Plagued by late season injuries and
a resulting inexperience, the Marist
five found trouble· in'. locating. the
range from the field and limiting their
moving violations. Despite these ob-
stacles they often looked strong for
a
few periods at a ti
'
me, although they
were unable to come up with too
many strong games.
The most impressive performance
of the season was against Philadel-
phia Textiles,
a
top ranked small col-
lege.
In
following games, regu_lars
John Murphy, Jim Clancy, Bernie
Dooley, Gary Henderson and
Mike
Borelli of ten had impressive individ-
ual showings, but had
·
trouble in over-
all team scoring. Thev were joined
on the court in their efforts by Den-
nis O'Brien, Gus Di Florio, Tom Fin-
ucane, and Tom Murray. Coach Paul
Arold, though disappointed with some
of his team's play, has high hopes for
next season when all of his lettermen
are expected to return with the ben-
efit of this year's experience.
INTRAMURALS
In the
1965
Intramural Basketball
Championships thrills were in order.
In the final game ,between the
Rejects
and the
Ovens
the score was tied at
the end of regulation play,

.
[n
the overtime the lead
·
changed hands
often, ·but the
Rejects
pulled ahead
on the efforts of Tun Nagle. Nagle
scored• the winning
·bucket
in the
final seconds, adding a fo~l shot to
cinch the championship,
59-56.
