The Marist faculty has decided overwhelmingly to reject the ad-
ministration's contract offer for 1983-84.
As
a result, faculty members

have immediately halted all activities outside of meeting classes.

The faculty will also refuse to participate in student evaluation of
classes and all registration activities, including add/drop, overrides and

The Marist College Pre-school
Center has been informed by Dr
.
Andrew Molloy, Marist vice
pr
_
esident, that it will be allowed
fo
remain at its location in the old
gym for the remainder
·
or
·
the
semester,
-
according to Joy
Beurket, head of the pre-school.
'
According to
_
Dr. John Pod-
zius, director of the pre-school
,
there has been
·
no further com-
munication from Dr. Molloy
.
about any decision concerning the
future of the center. '!Right now
we still don't know if we'll be
open next semester," he i;'aid.
Molloy said that he expects a
decision
·
will· be made within
a
month. He explained that at the
present time the pre-school is still
.
being evaluated in light of other
programs which
·
are competing
for space on campus.
:
Beurket said she is keeping a
very positive attitude about the
future and is continuing to make
plans for the fall program. When
asked if she could think of any
other suitable location ori campus
for the center, she said, '
.
'Present-
ly, No. I'm just hoping
_
the ad-
ministration will recognize our
merits and create some space for
us
.
"
porary modular
.
building which
.
could be attached to a main
building
·
on campus. The last
possibility is some other space on
campus which has not yet been
determined."
·
Molloy
.
explained that the
allocation of space to the pre-
school would come only at the
price of eliminating something
else.
·
·
The terms of the pre-school's
·
New York State license requires
that 35 square feet per child be
provided in the building which
houses the center. The current
center,. which
includes
a
playroom,
a
classroom,
bathroom
facilities
and a
coatroom, has enough space to
accommodate 21 children at one
time, according to Beurket.
When asked
·
if he could see
another
.
location
-
on campus
which would meet the terms
·
of the
licens~ Molloy replied, "I think
there are four possibilities. One
would· be to give the center space
in the new freshman area. A se-
cond site that would meet the re-
quirements is the area in the cam-
pus
·
center where the pre-school
was located in the past. That area
includes the game room and the
:
deli. Another
_
possibility is to
create a new space on campus
with the construction of a tern-
·
Beurket stressed that the pre-
school allows Marist to offer a
great service to the community
.
Beurket s~id
.
there is
the
equivalent
of
-
10½
full-time
-
students enrolled this semester.
It
takes about three -children to
equa_l one full-time student. Tui-
tion for a full-time student is
$661.50 per semes·ter.
·
Beurket said on a financial
basis the pre-school aims to break
•
~There is a need for quality day
care in
·
this area," she said.
''There
..
.
.
are a
·.
great number of
families
-
that are forced to have
both parents go out and work.
It
comforts thern to know that their
children iire
.
being well taken care
of. We have
·
the opportunity to
keep a very, very
·
good
·
school
available. This center
.
has the
potential to be the best of its kind
in the area."
·
•
even. "I'm not even sure we will
break even this semester
.,
" she
said
.
"The college is not making a
profit from the center_."
·
The
pre-school
currently
employs
eight
Marist
undergraduate students and two
graduate students. In addition,
there are three volunteer students
working at the center who are
fulfilling course requirements for
their
·
majors, according to
Beurket.
There are 33 students currently
enrolled in the center. Tuition
varies
-
according to how many
·
days a week a child attends.
Molloy said to establish a space
for the pre-school will require
some form of financing. He said
the program would be competing
for fresh financial resources with
,
other
-
programs at t~ college
along with other concerns
·
such as
the need of additional books for
the
library. The magnitude of the
financial considerations will have
an influence on the final decision,
according to Molloy.

All

pushed

weekday
assignments aside to watch their
friends perform comedy acts,
rock and roll music, and award-

winning airband routines from
the March 31 contest in a non-
competitive display of talent.
During her debut performance,
Gloria Walsh, sophomore, spoke
of last year's "pr

·-The.: Building· and•-·· Grounds.
Committee of the Marist Board
·of Trustees will announce its deci-
sion this week concerning the pro-
posal to build an addition to the
townhouses that is· accessible to
handicapped students, according
to Robert Heywood, .. director of
housing.
The one-story apartment to be
constructed between townhouses
B7 and Cl can house six han-
dicapped students and will have
two separate bedrooms, said
Heywood. The men's side of the.
apartment . will be accessible
t!trough a three-foot entry way in
the living room of townhouse B7
and the women's side can be
entered through townhouse Cl,
-said Heywood. ·
construction of the rooms is
estimated at $50,000. He said.that
the apartment will have a ground
floor, and the cost could change
depending on how .that space is
- utilized.
Each bedroom has its own
· bathroom with a three-foot en-
tryway and the room is large
enough to comfortably accom-
modate
three
handicapped
students, according to Diane Per-
reira, d!rector of the special ser-
vic;.es program ..
"It's not the most desirable
situation to have three students in
one room," said Perreira, "but it
will
allow them to have a lot of .
comfort and movement.''
· Perreira said that the shower
area will be slightly sloped for
drainage purposes and will be
equipped with hand-held shower
units, grab bars and a water-
Heywood said ·the cost of the temperature governor which
prevents the water from getting
too hot. She explained that most
handicaps lack sensation -in the
lower extremities of the body, and
the temperature govenor prevents
the possibility of the skin getting
· burned.
The first-floor living room area
and kitchen of both townhouses
will be shared with the six addi-
tional students, said Perreira. ·
"We're aware that putting an
additional three people in each
unit makes it tight," she said.
If
the plan is approved, accom-
modations would be made such as
putting larger refrigerators in the
two townhouses.
·
· Perreira said the only renova-
tions that would have to be made
are the enlargement of the en-
trance to the townhouses and a
change in the entrarice ramp
which currently has a steep slope
and makes it difficult to enter the
building;
"That is a steep incline. Trying
to get in is going to be difficult,"
said junior George Colby, who
hopes to reside in the new addi-
tion in the fall. He said 1hat the
hardest thing is going
to
be gel-
. ting in the door. Colby said that
.. he suggested to Perreira 1he con-
struction of a ramp that would
zigzag back and forth because
that would make it easier to get
up the incline. Heywood said that
townhouses B7 and Cl• were
chosen because they were the only
two townhouses that had any ac-
cessibility.
Heywood said that if either of
the apartments are not completely
occupied
by
handicapped
students, the additional space will
be open to able-bodied students.
Heywood said that the safety of
a handicapped student crossing ·
the street from the north campu~
to central campus will be address-
ed once the plan is approved.
"The attitudes of several peo-
ple who have been involved in the
design have changed," said Per-
reira. She said that she thinks the
school has learned a lesson sinct:
September when controversy ro~t:
over townhouse accessibility
w
the handicapped. She said tht:
situation created an awarencs~
that needed to be reawakened.
"This is certainly a bener solu-
tion than I ever dreamed about,"
Perreira said.
Colby said that he
is looking
forward
to
living
in
the
townhouse next year.
"I
am very pleased that the
school is willing to adhere
10
the
needs of a handicapped student,"
he said.
Relax, hypnotist puts your mind at ease
by Laura Reichert
"People experience it all the
time. The only thing you have to
learn is how to control this_ power
and how to direct it to achieve
your goals,'' says Ken Weber:
As the speaker on stage con-
tinued to talk, those in the au-
dience shut their eyes and let their
heads droop forward. To most
speakers this would be a sign that
their audience was becoming ex-
tremely
bored.
To
Weber
however, it was a sign o( deep
concentration.
Weber; who has been certified
by the UCLA School of Medicine
as a clinical hypnotherapist, and
has appeared before 500 college
audiences across the country,
gave two performances in the
Marist Collge theater last April
18. During this first performance
he instructed the audience on the
art of self-hypnosis.
Throughout the three hypnosis
sessions that took place, students
in the audience were told to focus
their attention on a specific spot
directly in front of them. Then,
sitting up straight with the palms

Coupons make cents
by Dan Hartman
-
.. For many people, cQllecting coupons is simply a way to save a
. few dollars. But for Marist history professor Dr. William Olson,
saving coupons, box tops, labels and proof of purchase seals is a
· thriving business. In fact, he says he actually makes about $2,000
a year doing so.
"It's all systematic," Olson said. "Most people approach it
(collecting coupons) in a haphazard fashion." Olson said he
spends about eight hpurs a week cutting out coupons, box tops
and labels and filing them into 12 product categories. Then when
. he finds out about a manufacturer's rebate, he goes to his files
and gets the labels for that product. Olson said that by using
coupons as well as a rebate slip, he recently purchased a product
for 75c and got two dollars back from the manufacturer.
_
Olson, who has been collecting for three years, estimates that
he has accumulated about 35,000 coupons. "Sometimes I
- . wonder if I'm ever going to rid of them all," he said.
Olson once spent seven straight hours shopping in the same
grocery store. He filled 14 shopping carts, which included 24 free
cases of Pepsi.
It
took three hours
to
check out. The retail value
of the food was-$2,000 and "I only paid the tax," he said.
· During the opening week of school, a local retailer. was
awarding triple value to coupons. "I would come to campus and
teach a class, then immediately go shopping," Olson said. By the
end of the week, he had purchased $4,750 worth of food and paid
a total of $541 for it.
·
"What I do has a lot of pertinence to students," Olson said.
Olsen said he feels that he could greatly help those students in the
Townhouses not on the meal plan and those who live off-
campus. Olson, who has lectured co adults several times about
his system, said he would like to teach interested Marist students
but said, "I would require a small fee. After all, I would be
giving them my secret."
Currently, Olson sells food
to
four groups of Maris! stude~rs
for one-third off the original price. In return, the studenrs give
him the labels or box tops from the products they buy from him.
Olson said he has the equivalent of about 60 bags of groceries in
his t.ome now.
"I've slowed down a little bit lately," Olson said, "II got to
the point where if I had kept up the pace, I would have had more
food than I could ever do with."
of their hands facing upwards on

they were led through a series of
steps which carried them deeper
into the• hypnotic state. Starting
with their feet, students were told
to completely_relax every part of
their bodies and
to
disregard all
sounds except that of Weber's
voice.
"As I count to ten you will feel
yourself being drawn more 'and
more deeply down," said Weber.
Participants didn't open their
eyes again until told to do so.
Before the first session, Weber
assured the people in the audience
that they would be in complete
control of their actions while
under hypnosis. "Everyone has
been in a state of hypnosis many
times,"
he said.

Bowman says farewell to Marist
by Kris La was
According to Mike Bowman,
the residence director of Cham-
pagnat Hall, his stay at Marist
has been both "interesting and
frusti:ating."
Bowman, 28, will be leaving his
job at the end of this semester to
pursue his Master's Degree in
Fine Arts.
'
"The atmosphere at Marist is
comfortable and the students are
very friendly," said Bowman,
"yet I feel that there isn't much
student involvement for such a
small school as this."
Born in England and raised in
New Zealand, Bowman came to
America with his mother after his
parents divorced and his mother
remarried an American naval of-
ficer. Bowman graduated from
high school in 1971 in Naples, Ita-
ly, then joined the U.S. Navy in
1972 as a medic. In 1982, he
graduated from Lycoming Col-
lege
in
Williamsport,
Penn-
sylvania, with a B.A. in Theatre
Arts. Last September, Bowman
joined the residence staff at
Mari
st.
succeeding
Robert
Kaminski as the residence director
of Champagnat Hall.
"I heard about the staff open-
ing through my girlfriend who
lives in the area," said Bowman.
"I basically accepted the position
because I needed the money. I like
most parts of the job; it's
definitely not boring. However,
there's room for improvement.''
According to Bowman, the
needed improvements lie in the
vinicity of residence staff orienta-
tion and training, especially for
the resident directors.
"I never got a.chance to work
with former directors and I didn't
have an orientation,'' said
Bowman.
"I was never a
residence director before, or even
a resident advisor. I came to this
job with no experience in it. I feel
that I've done a relatively good
job as a residence director but I
feel that if I'd had training and
some more time to work with my
staff before school had begun I
could have done and even better
job."
Bowman also said that he felt
Marist was expanding too rapid-
ly. "However." said Bowman;
"the future looks bright. The col-
lege seems to be getting more
qualified administrators · that
know what they're doing and can
handle the school's growth."
According to Bowman, there
are other aspects of Marist that
need
improvement,
mainly
Champagnat Hall.
"I have a list of repairs and im-
provements that I'd like to see in
Champagnat," said Bowman. "I
call it the "Dream Sheet." Robert
Heywood, director of housing,
has a copy and I keep adding to it
as I think of more things."
The list includes: carpeting in
the halls, equipment for students
to paint their own rooms, a cam-
pus cable television station, cur-
tains for the study boC'ths and a
"quiet wing" for the more
"studious" students, to name a
few.
"I doubt that I will ever return
to this college. I hope
to
be earn-
ing a living as an actor after or
while I'm getting my Master's at
Ohio State," said Bowman. "I
really have enjoyed my job here at
Marist."

To the Editor:

·
In the near future, Braille signs
will be placed in the elevators in
both Champagnat and Leo Hall_s.
These signs will be added to aid
the several blind and visually
impaired students who att~nd
Marist.
·
Several weeks ago, volunteers
for the Office of Special Services
placed Braille labels ori these
same elevator control panels. The
labels were removed by students
for some unexplained reason,
within
12
hours of their first
appearance.

We're supposed to be a peaceful nation
interested in human rights. That's why we
support a fascist government in El Salvador;
that's why our businesses exploit peasant
workers in the Far East in the

The Reagan military budget is the biggest
peacetime budget ever. Every dollar that
goes into the military
·
comes directly from
social and other civilian programs.
Two hundred billion dollars could repair
all the bridges in the U.S
.
; $200 billion could
fund Medicare for a year; $200 billion could
create millions of jobs for the unemployed.
But this $200 billion is going to build
humanity-destroying machinery in the name
of peace.
Yet there was nothing to discuss during
·
Dean's Convocation Day.
The White House has nice names for its
war machines: "deterrence" is a nice way of
saying nuclear arms build-up;
warhead
sounds too severe, so they call the MX and
the 8-1 "delivery systems;" and they don't
talk about
winning a war;
they call it the
ability to "prevail."
.

Then there are those who try to tell the
public that there is a real possibility of
·
"limited. nuclear war." That's similar to a
limited decapitation. Limited implies sur-
vival.

has nothing of importance to discuss at a
Dean's Convocation.

To the Editor:
.
"River
_
Day? What is Rive,
: ,
Day?" This is a question com-
.
·
moilly
·
asked
by
incoming
·
·
freshmen of Marist College. River
Day is supposed to be just that; a
day by the river. Present student~
often describe it as a get-togethe1
where the students of Marist
College unite to get to know each
other and have fun.
It
is a time tc
socialize, to laugh and basically tc
"hang-out." The description alsc
includes words such as
.
fun,
exciting,
relaxing and carefree.
Yet, this is not, by any means,
the total compilation of River
Day's elements. Words such as
cruel,
v.1c1ous,
destructive,
.
harmful and inhuman should be
taken into serious consideration.
Some
_
may ask "why?". The
answer is blatantly obvious due to
the traditional awards designed to
humiliate and destroy the well-
being of fellow slu(Jents. Who
gave certain member
.
s
:
of the
Marist community
.
the right to
judge
and
condemn
:
others?
Granted, it goes
·
uncontested that
the
seniors
are super\or in age.
It
has been believed, however, that
maturity accompanies age. ls it
mature to degrade a
fellow
human being?
.
_
_
.. ·
It is unfortunate that a college
such as Marist could produce
such insensitive students~ Marist
is usually known for its friendly,
good-natured
-
atmosphere
·
yet,
some choose
to
·
defy
that
·
reputation. For those who deem
these awards as just. or funny,
there
·is
one question that is left
.
before you; What ever happened
·
to "Do unto others as you would
have done unto you?" Think
..
about
it.
Concerned
Human Beings
Does being a college student preclude
being a member of the human race? Every
cent that goes into the arms race directly
cuts into · every social program including
education, and directly affects every U.S.
citizen. The government cannot run without
taxpayers' money, and because the money
comes from the pe
·
ople, they should have
some say as to how
it
is used
.
Thanks
To
the Editor:
,
Marist missed its chance
·
to react en
masse this year,
-
but next year there had
better be something to talk about during
Dean's Convocation. Another cancellation
would be a disgrace.

Do you know what this week
.
is? What's happening this week
besides dry days in the pub,
cohabitation and River Day? This
week
is
National
Secretaries
Week.
This is the time that we honor
the unsung
.
heroes of Marist
.
College. This is
·
the time to
remember the young ladies (not
"girls") that run this school.
This is the time to remember
the typing, the filing, the coffee,
the good mornings and all the
.
times that the secretaries have
kept Circle reporters out of your
office!

Did you ever wonder what
by
Tom Fisher
Jennifer Beals is hot. She's
good looking, she's a pretty good
·
actress, and she can even dance.
Boy, can she dance.
·
.
would happen if there were no
secretaries at Marist?
Robert Heywood: "Hello Dean
Cox,
I'm trying to figure out how
many students we should

try to
place in the Old Gym and Kelsey
isn't here. What should I 'do?"
Dean Cox: "Well, Rena
'

here either. Let me check if Grace
is in so we can solve this
dilemma."

Robert Heywood:
«If
Grace
isn't in; why don't you give Andy
Pavelko a call?"
Dean Cox: "No, that won't
help, only Rita makes those
decisions.''

In Flashdance, Beals plays
Alexandra Owens. During the
·
day, she works as, of all things, a
welder. By night, she struts her
stuff at a bar called Mawby's.
Perhaps strut isn't quite the right
word to use here
.
She jumps,
twists, splits, contorts, writhes,
rolls, and moves her body in just
about any way humanly or, as it
seems, inhumanly possible. Why,
then, is she dancing in a seedy
little bar that doesn't quite have
all the finesse of Rockwell's?
Well, as it turns out, she is a
talented dancer, but can't get up
the courage to try out for bigger
What we have here is your
typical "Rocky" formula about
the underdog who gets a lucky
break, and is faced with the
possibility and thrill of success.
Along the way, Alex (as she
prefers to be called) gains the love
and support of her dayshift boss,

take all of the credit. The editing
within these sequences is rapid
and engrossing. The lighting is
marvelously flashy, whether in

the music score.

original songs by Irene Cara,

"Flashdance .... What

unthinkable. It is a musical gala

that stays with you long after 1he
movie is over.
I should also mention that
Beals is not
·
the only talented
athlete in the movie. The other
stage dancers at Mawby's are also
rousing, as well as a short
sequence featuring street dancers.
There are even some well-staged
ice skating segments .
As I said before, the plot · i
s
pretty thin, and is basically just
there to link the music and
dancing scenes together. But if
you see the talent and energy
displayed

by Jennifer Beals and
che rest of the vigorous dancers,
the storyline seems superficial,
and even unnecessary. Others
may stand to judge Flashdanee

myself, but I loved it.

THE CIRCLE· April

1983
Computer-club ..
to help others ·
· When some Marist students
hear the word "computer," they
immediately
question
its
usefulness and are usually
hesitant about working with the
equipment, says Frank DeGiglio.
But if he has his way, he'll change
that.
DeGiglio, a Marist student and ·
member of the Marist College
Computer Society, has formed a
new club out of the Computer
Society.
It
is
the Student
Cooperative
for
Academic
Computing (SCAC).
· "The purpose of the SCAC is
to show people that computers are
something which . are useful and
should be better .understood. The
club• will do this by aiding the
other clubs on campus in such
areas as
bookkeeping and
membership readouts, and they
will also try to advise clubs who
are having trouble in com-
municating with their members,"
said DeGiglio.
According to DeGiglio, · the
SCAC will go into full swing next
year, when it presents its service
to the different clubs. If the club
decides to use the services offered
by the SCAC, then club officers
will be advised and taught how to
use the computer by an SCAC
member.
''We will set up the clubs with
· an account so that they will be
able to use the computer. From
there the clubs will operate the
computer themselves and we will_
be there in case they need help,"
said DeGiglio.
Wheri looking at the future of
the SCAC, DeGiglio said he· is
very optimistic. "We have many
people who are coming into the
club and there seems to be a lot of
interest. If it works out, we couid
even go off campus and work
with private businesses," said
·oeGiglio.
DeGiglio added that there will
be
a charge for the use of the
· computer and that the money will
go towards the computer ex-
penses.
Brass quintet
to_ play_ Monday
The Huguenot Brass Quintet
will be performing at the Campus
Center Theatre next Monday at 3
p.m. to benefit St. George's
School, a local private elementary
· school.
The · local group of five
professional music teachers have
been performing together for
more than eight years, according
to Marlene Price, a spokeswoman
for St. George's.
, "Their reporatory ranges from
Bach to Rqck," she said, "from
Joplin to'turn of the century brass
music." Price added that the
school expects the concert to "do
well" in raising money.
St. George's was destroyed by
fire on May 22, 1982, after which
its operations were moved to
Marist for the remainder of the
1981"-82 school year. The school is
currently operating in a·church on
Hooker Avenue in Poughkeepsie
until a permanent location can be
found.
Tickets for the concert are $5
for
adults and $3.50 for children
and senior citizens. Further in-
formatin may be obtained from
the school at 452-8219 (days) or
471-7286 (evenings).
Five student.'.written plays are
scheduled to be performed at 8
p.m. April
28 as a part
of the experimental theater
workshop headed by Dean of
Student Affairs Gerard A. Cox.
The plays
will

The class of 1986 needs more unity and increased

Romano's goals for next year include cutting the cost
of class rings, a cruise on the Hudson. mixers. and con-
stant availabilitv of class officers.
"If the whole class knows what's going on,
I
think
it'll make us a lot closer, a lot stronger class," said
DeVitis.
DeVitis, with 115 votes, defeated opponents Susan
Brunner, with 91 votes, and Diane Morrison, with 30
vote~. Fred.Schuster captured the vice-presidency with
131
votes, 20 over Peter Morrissey's JOI. Mary
Schmidtmann, the new·treasurer, and Paula Trebotte,
the riew secretary, both ran unopposed.
The junior class officer election results placed Roger
Romano, carrying more than half of the 198 votes, in
his third year as president of the class of 1985.
Romano won the election with 104 votes, followed by
Phil Boyle with 54 votes, Gene Robbins with 24 votes,
and Jim Murphy with 16 votes.
"Communications with class members. both on cam-
pus and off campus, will be estalbishcd through
newsletters sent out on a regular basis.'! Romano said.
"I
would like to be known by my classmates for doing
more than just a mediocre job, and I will work harder
to see our views communicated.·'
"I
feel very happy that I received a vote of con-
fidence," said Romano. "I know a lot of different
facets. that make·up our class and I would hope that
communkations between class members will be heard."
. Steve LoDestro was unopposed for the office of vice-
presidcnt. LoDestro
·
said he plans to keep the class
united through newsletters, W.M.C.R., and other
media available.
Seniors
by Jane M. Scarchilli
Newly elected senior president for the class of 1984.
, Karyn Magdalen would like to add something different
to the graduation ceremonies for next year.
DeVitis, of Millstone Township, N.J. was disap-
pointed with the turn-out both at the campaign speeches
and the election itselL She said she feels that a lot of
people complain about activities and other aspects ·of
campus life, and yet not only don't they get involved,
· but they don't even vote for those represented them.
"l
have to give the people credit who were willing to
take the time and energy to run for an office. Everyone
else sits back and complains.· It's ridiculous that there
was that poor of a turn out for class elections," DeVitis
said.
. "I see no real problems _for. next year," said
LoDestro.
"I
will work to have the best year possible."
"I'm looking for suggestions from the class as to how
we can add a special touch to make our graduation
more memorable," she said.
. Theresa Haugh was elected treasurer with 105 votes.
Haugh, who was also· treasurer of the class in her
freshmen year, said she wants to be closely involved
with the happenings of the class.
Magdalen, a Communication Arts major from Kings
Park, Long Island, carried 62 of the 90 votes to beat
Thomas Laux's 28.
Trebotte of Nashua,
N.H.
was also displeased in the
turn-out for. voting. In addition she expressed disap-
pointment in the fact th~t she ran unopposed.
"I
was
reliev~d at first that no one was running against me, ~ut
it's pretty sad that out of a class of 600 people, only one
person ran for secretary."
"This term I would like to be more creative with fun-
draisers, and I would like to ·see all of the classes work
together," Haugh said. "I· feel we will function
smoother because of Interactive Change's goal to com-
municate better with the administration and students.''
Lori Isler, currently a very active member of the
Sophomore Class Activities Team, was elected to the
office of secretary, beating Mary Marino 121-73. Isler
said she would like to see more of the commuters get in-
volved in the coming year. .
Other officers elected were Barbara LaDuke as vice-
president, Barbara McMahon as treasurer and Veronica
O'Shea as secretary.
Magdalen hopes to bring the senior class together.
"Since a majority of the class will be off-campus, I
would 'like to plan events 19 reunite them," she said. "I
want to strive for the closeness we had freshman year."
Magdalen would also like to keep the pr.ices down for
senior week. "We will need a lot of help with fun-
d.raisers," she said. "I would like senior week to be as
inexpensive as possible so that all seniors can afford to
attend.''
. DeVitis said she feels that part of the problem of class
apathy lies in a Jack of communication. She plans
to
remedy that with the initiation of a class newsletter.
Other ideas DeVitis has for her upcoming term in-
clude a sophomore formal, a moonlight cruise, and
perhaps, a party or barbecue down by the river. Her
main objective however, remains one of establishing
class unity. "It's not going to be the way it is now,"
DeVitis said. "There seems to be some sort of rivalry
going on. It's the freshmen in Champagnat, and the
"Commuters are a big part of the class, and it's a
shame that they don't get involved," Isler said. "I have
a lot of friends who are commuters, so
r
know how they
feel.''
A
personalized thank you to the parents, in diploma
form, might be sold to raise money for senior week,
Magdalen said.
Romano said he is very pleased with the officers
elected and looks forward to a good year in office.
Magdalen still plans
to
be a resident advisor next
year. She will also be associate editor of the yearbook.
Dutchess County asks
f
ot
limit on alcohol
by Cindy_ Denned um_
· The ,Dutchess
County
"Legislature has gone on record in
support of a resolution to limit
the sale of alcohol in New York
state.
_
Earlier this month the
35
Outs
chess
County
legislators
unanimously supported a resolu-
tion proposing that the sale of all
alcoholic beverages cease at ,2
a.m.
The . resolution, introduced by
Dutchess County legislators Col-
lette
Lafuente;
R-City · of
Poughkeepsie,- and Fran Mark,
D-Staatsburg, would mean that ·
all bars in the state would close at
2 ;i.m., and 24-hour convenience
stores ·and restaurants would be
prohibited from selling alcoholic
beverages after this hour.
The proposal,
begun
last
December, was largely due to the
number of alcohol related crashes
occurring between I to 7 a.m.
As the chart indkates, the
average ·nuinl?er of alcohol related
crashes increased 36 percent
between 1975-76 and 1980-81.
However, alcohol, related crashes
increased 80 percent between
1-7
a.m.
... While the. nl!mber · of fatal
akohol related crashes increased
1:38
percent, those between
I
Jo
7
a.m. increased 300 percent.
Noise nuisance, vandalism and
property damage during the car)y
morning hours. we.re also reasons
for the proposal, according to
Mark.
The next step· is for one of the
assemblymen
or senators
in
Albany to sponsor a bill based on
the proposal's request for the 2
a.ni. closings.
However, the Alcohol Beverage
Control boards of New York· will
have the final say in the bar clos-
ings, said Mark. She added that
it's the ABC boards' power' to
close the bars, even if a bill is not
introduced or passed in Albany.
The ABC board· is a govern-
ment commission that has the
authority to monitor all alcoholic
beverage sales and dispensing.
There are several ABC boards
located throughout the state, each ·
monitoring a region of 4 or.
5
counties.
In 1979 the ABC board extend-
ed bar closings to 4 a.m. in Dut-
chess County.

"pulled" for further considera-
tion.
According to Mark, the main
objection of this county-wide pro-
posai by Dutchess County tavern
owners _
is that customers could
cross· into surrounding counties,
such as Orange and Ulster, where
the bars close at 4 a.m. She added
that someone else would be mak-
ing the money the Dutchess Coun-
ty bar owners would
be
losing.
"It
all comes down to money,"
said
Mark.
Chris Turek, proprietor of
Skinner's; said he would lose
almost 21 percent of his business
in the county-wide 2 a.m. clos-
ings. He added that although he
would lose the same amount for
state-wide closings, he would pro-
bably change his business format.
"I'll probably open in the morn-
ing for breakfast to make up for
the loss of money," he said.
He added that people would
change their drinking habits in the
event of the state-wide change.
Mark supported this idea, saying,
"I've had a lot of young people
(aged 22-32) tell me they would
like to have the bars close because
they would like to be able to go
out earlier themselves, hear what
musical group they want to, and
be able
to
leave by midnight
because they have to work the
next day.''

As. for what college . smdents
would do because of the earlier
closings,
Bobby
Cardinal,
a
junior, said that it might even be
more trouble for Marist because
people will be back in ihe dorms
earlier and will be bored, with
_nothing to do. "They'll just cause
a lot more trouble," he added.

.
.
"I think if you're inter~sted in
natioral politics then you've got
to
spend
some. time
in
Washington, D.C., just to get the
smell of it." Those were the
words of Marist professor. Dr.
Lee Miringoff after returning
with· 10
students
from
our
nation's capital from a five-day
visit.
While in Washington from
April 5-10, the Marist entourage
attended a series of seminars and
inadvertently had the pleasure of
bumping into a lot of important
people.
· "We saw Warren Burger, the
chief justice, and Jghn Johnson
from
A.B.C.
News,"
said
Miringoff.
"We had
S(?me
seminars with the political editor
of the Washington Post, James
Dickenson, and with Douglas
Grew, who is the White House
correspondent
for
Time
magazine. We also met with Bill
Sweeney, the deputy director of
the
Democratic
National
Committee and while we were
there,
Charles
Manet,
the
chairman of the D.N.C., came
into say hello.''
The trip came shortly after the
New
Hampshire
poll
that
Miringoff had conducted and,
according to him, there were
plenty of people inquiring about
the findings.
"We were contacted by (Sen.
Alan) Cranston's people and
(Sen. Ernest) Holling's people,·
who aren't the biggest household
names, but they are candidates
for th_e presidency. Also, we were
at the D.N.C. and one person
asked if we had the results of the
poll on us. So the word had gotten
around
to
the top of · the
Democratic party that we had
· done. the poll in New Hampshire
and it was apparently credible
enough that someone was asking
for it.
It
was nice going to D.C.
and having people interested in
something we had to offer, not
only something that they had,"
Miringoff said.
For both the ·students and
Miringoff. the highlight of the
seminars was a meeting with
television
news commentator
David Brinkley.
"There was no moncv in-
volved, he didn't have to gi~e the
interview with the group," he
said. "We contacted his office
just out of the dark. We sent them
a letter and they got back
to
us
and said they would try

make
an appointment. We walked in
and I asked his secretary how long
we should keep him and she said,
'Oh, about a half hour to 45
minutes.' Two hours later he was
still sitting there with us."
Mirin1wff
described
the
meeting
is
"very informative and
an awful lot of fun. He was
extremely engaging." Brinkley
spoke about his career, the people
he's
seen
come
through
Washington in his last 40 vears
and his opinions abom ihose
people.
"He was
very
candid
in
speaking about past presidents
and other world figures, the ones
he liked and the ones he didn't
like, the ones he thought were
crooks and those he believed were
statesmen. He didn't pull any
punches. He clearly let his views
be known." Miringoffsaid.
While waiting in the lobbv of
Brinkley's offi~e. White House
correspondent Sam Donaldson
came walking through. "It was

Smith convicted; faces execution
by Bob
Weinman
Lemuel Smith, a convicted
murderer serving three life terms,·
has been convicted, in _State
Supreme Court
in
Dutchess
County, of first-degree murder in
the death of Green Haven prison
guard Donna Payant.
The murder conviction means
an automatic death sentence for
the 41-year-old Smith, who killed
Payant by strangulation in May
1981.
Payant was the first woman
_ prison- guard in the United States
slain while on duty.
The guilty verdict was handed
down Thursday after a week of
deliberations by a seven man, five
woman jury. The trial began
January 1
O
in Poughkeepsie and
lasted three months.
·
Smith will be sentenced May 16
by State Supreme Court Justice
Albert Rosenblatt. The verdict re-
quires Rosenblatt to sentence
Smith to death. An untested sec-
tion of a 1974 death penalty law
will now be used for the first time.
Defense
lawyer
William
Kunstler said that he would ask to
have the verdict set aside. He
claims the prosecution had not
fully proved its case.

"I want to qualify for next
year's Boston Marathon," said
Mills. "I plan on training very
hard this summer and possibly
running cross country for Marist
next year. To qualify I'd have to
run under 2:50 in · the Marine
Corps Marathon." .
Bayer also wants to run in the
Boston Marathon next year. His
time of 2:46 at Penn is under the
qualifying time at Boston, but
you have to run your time within
a year of the race. The Penn
Relays Marathon was run ·on
April 17 while Boston was on the
18th, which means Bayer missed
the cutoff by 24 hours. ·
Bayer, from St. Paul Catholic
High School in Bristol, Conn.,
has run only two marathons. This
past November he · ran at the
Marine Corps. He ran a 2:51 in
his debut run.
· Bayer started this year running
for the Marist cross country team
but injured ligaments in his foot
after falling downstairs. He said
he recovered in less than a month,
and started training for his first
marathon.
· Running for the cross country
team is definitely not in Bayer's
plans for next year. He said he'd
rather just concentrate on the
marathon.
"Howard's philosophy on run-
ning differs greatly form mine,"
said Bayer. "He runs for the fun
of it while I run against the clock,
for the challenge. I enjoy pain."

team to face Dowling·
by Jim Leonard
The Marist College lacrosse
team will face Dowling College
today on Long Island.
Team co-captain Larry McNeill
said he sees the game against
Dowling, tl).e defending Knicker- ·
bocker Conference· Champions,
as a highly competitive match that
should be one of the toughest
games of the season.
"Since Dowling has a small
squad of 15-20 players like ours,"
said McNeill,
"it
will be in-
teresting to see how well our
young players will perform.''
Marist's other co-captain
senior Dan Trotta, agreed with
McNeill and said Dowling recent-
ly lost to Adelphi University
(ranked #12 in the nation accor-
ding to Trotta) by only two goals.
"Losing to the #12 ranked team
in the nation is certainly no
disgrace," said Trotta, "It shows
how tough Dowling can be."
Because of bad weather, the
Foxes are playing in their first
game in nearly two weeks. Marist
lost to Stevens Tech of Hoboken,
N. Y. 11-5 last Saturday, dropping
their season record to 1 and 4.
McNeill said he refused to make
any excuses for the team but ad-
mitted the Jong layoff between
games and Marist's inexperience
contributed to the Joss.
"We started out cold and then
tried to catch up the rest of the
game," said McNeil!. "Our inex-
perience is definitely still show-
ing, but the new players are star-
ting to learn to work together,"
he added.
Marist's inexperience led to 17
minutes of penalties.· Steven's

mistakes and scored nine goals
while Marist was shorthanded.
McNeill and Trotta both said
the referees called a "tight"
game, but McNeill suggested the
referees' may have .called un-
necessary penalties. "Let's put it
this way," said McNeill. "The
refs were definitely not the best
ones I've seen." He added, "Even

Riklin) was penalized.''

Jim Dowd, juniors Dave Naar
and Ted Loughlin, sophomore
Steve Hogan and freshman Tom
Daly, all with one goal each.

rent site of the Sunoco gas sta-
tion.
The name Woodcliff was deriv-
ed from the property
it
occupied,
which was once the home of John
Flack
Winslow of Monitor fame.
Winslow was in the iron business,
and his company made the sides
of iron for the Monitor, the ship
that defeated the Merrimac in the
Civil War.

By 1930, Fred Ponty, the man
who formerly owned an amuse-
ment park in Rye Beach, had ac-
quired the estate and invested $1
million for an amusement park
that included a $90,000 swimming
pool, dance hall, picnic grounds,
rides and other recreation
facilities.
According
to
newspaper
reports, Sunday, Aug. 10, 1941,
was· marked by "the worst out-
break of trouble in Dutchess
County.''
Rioting broke out at Woodcliff
when 3,000 '{isitors, who had
come up on the Dayliner from
New York City, fought with
police. The Poughkeepsie Eagle
News, from Monday, Aug. 11.
1941, in a story headlined "New
York Excursionists Riot
at
Woodcliff Park," reported:
"Hurling rocks and bottles and
brandishing knives and a hatchet,
rioting New York Negroes yester-
day afternoon caused extension
damage to buildings at Woodcliff
Amusement Park, smashed win-
dows and windshields of police
cars and menaced scores of pic-
nickers at the amusement place."
Newspaper· accounts indicated
a local group of 1,000 residents
had reserved the pool, inn and
other areas for an outing. The
disturbances began when a New
York City visitor was refused beer
at the inn.
The park closed shortly after.
According to Perrault, the en-
tire place was salvaged for scrap
metal during World War II.
Among the things visitors can
find at the site are numerous bot-
tles, some dating back to 1909,
rotted furniture, an abandoned
tractor trailer and a large metal
sign embedded in the dirt reading
''WELCOME TO WOODCLIFF
AMUSEMENT PARK."

lack of, depth on the team again
showed as Marist finished fourth

a
meet at
Union College· April 20.
Pete Pazik ran with the leaders·
most of the way in the
5,000
meter run and finished third in .a
personal best of 15:47. "He ran
really tough," Head Coach Jim
Klein said. Pazik is hoping to i:un
1S:25 to qualify for the state meet
at Colgate. •
Two Mari st runners, junior·
Ken Bohan and freshman Mike
Murphy, finished third and'four-
th, respectively, in the 1500 meter
run. Bohan was outkicked in the
last 200 meters but·still ran a per-
sonal best of 4:.1
I.
Murphy ran an ·
evenly paced race and finished in
4:16, also a personal best.
"I
went out a little slow,"
Bohan said of the 67 second first
lap. "That guy from Union just
hung and outkicked me, when he
went by
I couldn't stay with
him."
