Nobel winner Samuelson
to speak tonight at
7
p.m.
by DIN D'AKJ
Nobel laureate Paul
A.
Samuehon.
one
of the world's top
economic theorists, will discuss
current economic issues tonight at
7
p.m.
in
the
Marist College
Theater.
Samuelson
is
founder of the
graduate
department in economics
at Massachusetts Institute of
Technology, where he bas taught
for
nearly
SO
years.
For the past
20
)'QJ'S,
be
has
held
the ranking post
of
insutute
proftSOr, and this year
was
named
institute professor
emeritus.
Dr.
John
Kelly,
the chairperson
of
the Division
of Management
Studies,
arranged
the lecture
through
correspondence with
Samuelson. This
year,
Samuelson
wrote
to
Kdly, " ...
although my
schedule
is
quite
busy, how can I
refuse a
school
who
has used my
book
for
25
years."
Marist
economic
students are
familiar
with
Samuelson through
the use of his
textbook,
"Economics," which, in its 12th
edition, is the most widely used
economics text in the nation.
In addition to the text,
Samuelson wrote "Foundations of
Economic Analysis," which
established his reputation as a
revolutionary economist.
Samuelson is noted for his con-
tributions to the understanding of
the mathematical applications of
economic systems. He also has
discussed
the relationships between
economics and such areas as con-
sumer behavior, public finance, in-
ternational
trade,
production
economics, business cycles and in-
come analysis.
In 1970, Samuelson was award-
ed the Nobel Memorial Prize in
economics, the first American to
receive
the honor.
Samuelson
was
an economic
ad-
_
visor to President John F. Ken-
nedy. He remains an influential
figure in economic matters as the
academic consultant to the
Federal
Reserve
and United States
Treasury.
Samuelson wrote a column on
economic matters in Newsweek
from 1966 to 1981. He holds
editorial positions on several
academic publications, such as
Journal of Public Economics and
Journal
of
International
Economics.
Twenty-six colleges and univer-
sities in the United States and
abroad have awarded Samuelson
with degrees and invited him to
participate in their lecture pro-
grams. He recently delivered a lec-
ture at The University of Califor-
nia at Los Angeles and in the
Horowitz lecture series in
Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, Israel.
Samuelson earned his bachelor
of science degree from the Univer-
sity of Chicago. He received his
M.A.
and Ph.D degrees from 1-lar-
vard University, which also award-
ed
him
the David
A. Wells Prize.
Samuelson will arrive at 3 p.m.
today to have a discussion with
economics students in the Theater.
His lecture will be followed by
a
private
reception
at Greystone.
alerted the state police, said
Mittelstaedt.
No action has
been
taken against
the entry .officer, a female resident
of Sheahan, according to Steve
Sansola, directot of housing. San-
sola refused to identify the student.
"The system works," Sansola
said, "but in this case poor judg-
ment was used." Sansola said he
-'
would meet with the entry officer.
Keegan
is
scheduled to appear in
the Town of Poughkeepsie Court
tomorrow at
9
a.m., said
Wojciechowski.
The assault, which came amid
several complaints of an obscene
phone caller and an attempted
break-in at a Townhouse last
weekend, has become a concern of
many students at Marist.
"We have to make sure students
lock their doors," Sansola said.
"Students have to report to Securi-
ty strange people who look like
they don't belong here."
"Students should go in and out
,the front doors with their I.D's,"
Sansola said. "It's a community
effort."
Abortion speaker
challenges college in
local speech
by Julie Sveda
In a lecture last week at the
Unitarian
Fellowship
of
Poughkeepsie, abortion advocate
Bill Baird charged that Marist Col-
lege yielded to pressures from the
Rmna!t
Catholic- Church when
his
debate with
Lee
Klimek, chairper-
son for the New York state Right-
to-Life committee, was indefinite-
ly postponed.
The program as originally plann-
ed called for a variety of presenters
to deal with religious, historical,
political, medical and psychological
aspects of abortion on three con-
secutive nights and to follow on the
fourth night, Sept.
25,
with a
debate on "The Politics of Govern-
ment and Sex-Should Abortion
Be
Legal?" between Baird and
Klimek, according to Gerard Cox,
vice president for student affairs.
.
The other events planned for
that week were also postponed.
The events dealing with the issue
of abortion will be rescheduled
sometime in the middle of Feb: or
the first week in March, according
to Cox.
Cox forsees no problems with
the debate between Baird and
Klimek being rescheduled. "I don't
think there will be a problem.
Klimek wants to debate him," Cox
said.
In lieu of the debate at Marist,
Baird spoke at the fellowship and
·
made reference to the college
several times throughout his lec-
ture. Baird said the biographical in-
formation on Klimek was not
necessary for publicity or to prove
he was
·
a
qualified
speaker.
'"He (Klimek) is a powerful man.
You don't get there unless you
know what the hell
YQU
're talking
about," Baird said. "Why didn't
they call Right-to-Life and ask for
information or just get someone
else?"
'• At
Marist my goal was only to
talk, to debate, to reach young peo-
ple with our freedom, and then l
was told it was canceled. 'In-
definitely postponed' means it will
never happen," Baird said.
The lack of biographical infor-
mation on Klimek did cause the
debate to be cancelled, but the
week's events were cancelled as a
whole because other parts of the
programs were encountering dif-
ficulties as well, according to Cox.
Baird told the approximately 50
people at the lecture that when the
original plans for the debate were
made, he had been given a "gag
order," where he "could not
discuss
faith or my religion." Baird
said he has taped telepho~e co~ver-

sations with Betty Yeaglin, direc-
tor of college activities, proving
this.
"I agreed to that stipulation,"
said
Baird,
a
Unitarian
Universalist.
Y eaglin could not
be
reached to
comment.
In an article in the Poughkeep-
sie Journal, Y eaglin said she had
asked Baird only to limit his com-
ments to the topic of laws regarding
abortion. "We never said he
couldn't mention the Catholic
Church," Yeaglin was quoted as
saying
in th,: Journal's story.
The recorded telephone conver-
sation also included a comment
from Yeaglin that five Marist
brothers on campus were furious
he was invited to debate, Baird
said.
"I was told five brothers don't
want me," said Baird. "I will take
on all five brothers in a debate
.
"
Baird
charged
that
ad-
ministrators are afraid of a ruling
from the New York Archdiocese
that bans from parish-sponsored
events speakers who oppose church
policy.
Marist
is
no longer formally
af.
filiated with the church, but some
80 percent of the student body is
Catholic.
"I
wouldn't say the association
was just in the past. The present
student body is
predominately
Catholic,''
said Gerard Cox, vice
president
for student affairs, in an
interview with The Circle earlier
this semester.
"Either you
are or
aren't a
Catholic school,'' said Baird.
"Just
like you
are or
aren't
pregnant."
The
day of
his
Poughkeepsie
lec-
ture,
Baird visited the Marist
cam-
pus
to "ask
administrators
to
reconsider,''
he
said.
"I
was told
that it may
still hap-
pen,''
said Baird. "But
Cox
said,
'if
you
rake
us
over the coals, w
_
e'll
never have
it'."
Cox denied the allegation, and
said he asked Baird to say that
he
had been given a full explanantion
as
to
why the debate was cancell-
ed, and not to just say his
suspicions.
"I
told him,
'when
you're giving
your presentation tonight you
can
say
what
you
want about the col-
lege, but
what
will you gain from
it?
If
you attack
the
college you're
going
to
polarize people.'
"
said
Cox.
If
an opponent
for
Baird could
not
be
found,
Baird said
he would
spealc alone at
Marist and
he
plead-
ed with the audience to write
let-
ters to the college, demanding he
be
given the opportunity to
speak.
Commuters
sponsor play
by
Mike Petronko
The Commuter Union
has
mov-
ed to take a more prominent role
in campus activities by sponsoring
the upcoming presentation of
"Dracula.''
·
which
will
be
perform-
ed in the Theater Oct.
29
through
31.
Directed by senior Frank Col-
leta, the play was designed to allow
the Commuter Union a more visi-
ble role in campus activities.
"I
was approached with the idea
of producing a play by Norman
Clancy, president of the Commuter
Union.
I suggested 'Dracula,' and
he agreed," said Colleta.
The assistant director is Shelly
Sousa.
Commuter Ken Peller
is
Count
Dracula, and John Roche,
Marist College Council
on
Theatre
Arts
president, is R.M.
Renfield.
Senior
Mike
Larkin and freshman
Jen Shiffer will
play
the roles of
Dr.
and
Lucy Seward.
According
to
Colleta, the role
of
Abraham
Van Helsig
is
still
vacant.
"We are looking
for
a
male in
his
thirties,
preferably
a
faculty
member,'' said Colleta.

M arist vs. British Nat'/:
A
comic contention

Night ... "
contest by presenting the team's arguments
for ending aid, speaking assertively, seriously
and with apparent confidence.
it hurt the most - right in the royal family.
The British did not let this go by without
retaliation, going to town on Ronald and
Nancy Reagan, along with sheepishly asking
Hughes if she was a communist.
"It was a lot of work but overall it was
a definite learning experience," said Hughes.
Springston said he also thought it went
well. "The British are pure entertainers,"
said Springston. "Everything is off the cuff.
This
is the same kind of humor we saw when
we took them out to dinner."
Rather than the standard opening remarks
that were made by Jim Springston, director
of the debate team, that would have been a
more suitable introduction to last week's
debate between Marist and the British Na-
tional Team.
Yet, she was not spared the wrath of the
British. When the first British debater took
th~ lectern, the real show began.
What followed was back-and-forth mud-
slinging that resulted in absolutely noLbing,
aside from some pretty jocuJar laughter from
the audience.
The topic debated -
whether America
should cease aid to Third World countries
-
was, by far, overshadowed by the comic
retaliation of the British.
Along with one or two serious rebuttals
came remarks that Hughes was "Poughkeep-
sie's answer to Cyndi Lauper" and a direct
comparison of her to Chicago Bear William
"Fridge" Perry.
Next, Allison White bravely took the stage
for Marist. She first attempted to bring the
debate full circle by restating the original
points, but then let the Brits have it where
"I don't know if the Americans are ready
for our sense of humor," said Gary Bell, or
.
as Hughes referred to him, the Pillsbury
Doughboy. "Most people, except for the
girls themselves, did seem to enjoy it."
The debate was not scored, and neither
team seemed to mind the eventual skirting
of the issue.
Both sides strongly stressed that the name-
calling and back-stabbing were all in good
fun but when the debate was over Hughes
and Bell could still be heard quibbling by the
refreshments in the Fireside Lounge.
Marist's Allison Hughes, a beginner in the
cut-throat world of debating, opened the

Marist journal seeks help
I.
by C.M. mavaty
The Mosaic, Marist's literary magazine, is currently seeking sub-
missions by faculty and students for the 1987 issue, which will be
published this spri,ng, according to Editor Leslie Weston.
The
deadline for submitting material is Dec. I. All literary
work
must be typed or word-processed, and none
will
be returned, said
Weston. Entries should be addressed to The Mosaic, Box 3-833.
"Usually, a few people submit a lot of things," said Associate
Editor Keli Dougherty of Waldwick, N.J.
Staff members said they hope to encourage wider interest through
posters and monthly meetings of the Literary Society.
"We'd like to see people from all majors," said Weston, a junior
from Higganurn, Conn.
Last year's edition of The Mosaic contained a large number of
photographs and poems, according to Weston. This year, the
editors said they would like to see more artwork from the Marist
community, especially drawings
.
"We'd like
to
see more short stories. Any kind of non-fiction
is welcome," Weston said.
Weston was the editor of a literary magazine in high school. "I've
always wanted to pursue this. I like organizing, putting effort in-
to it, and seeing it published," she said.
Dougherty agreed
.
"Ever since I was little, I wanted to be a
writer. It's (the Mosaic) a lot of fun. It's a lot of hard work, but
it's rewarding," she said.
.,j
Hughes, however, said she felt the debate
was a great success .
New York state plans campaign
to fight drug abuse problem
by Mike Gnyeb
New York state is planning
several anti-drug programs in the
next few months, according to the
September newsletter, "Learning
in New York."
The State will offer a seminar on
Oct. 23 to discuss the dangers of
crack, a
highly
addictive,
crystalliz-
ed form of cocaine. The all-day
event
will
be held at various schools
throughout the state in an effort to
educate large numbers of students
about the dangers of substance
abuse.
Also included in the campaign,
which began in September,
is
the
distribution of drug and alcohol in-
formation "palm" cards to all
public and nonpublic school
students in grades kindergarten
through 12. A teacher training ef-
fort in 13 locations throughout the
state has also been instituted.
At
Marist, students who have a
problem with chemical dependen-
cy, either drugs or alcohol, should
seek help or they will not be
tolerated, according to College
President Dennis Murray in a
memorandum to all students at the
beginning of the semester.
"Any student who is unwilling to
recognize that drugs and other
forms of substance abuse are a ma-
jor problem will have no place at
Marist College," said Murray.
Murray's letter came amid a
statewide campaign to educate
students about the dangers of drug
abuse.
The purpose of the project is to
educate students that "drugs
can
kill,•'
according to Governor
Mario Cuomo, who is leading the
campaign.
At Marist, the Counseling
Center, a part of the Personal
Development Center located in the
Byrne Residence, serves as a place
for counseling students, according
to Roberta Amato, director of
counseling s~rvices.
Three professional counselors
with
degrees in
clinical/ counseling
psychology and two graduate
students in the psychology program
make up the Counseling Center
staff.
"This is a good starting.place to
talk about the drug problem," said
Amato. "We're not a psychiatric
ward, but we do have the same
standards of ethics that most
psychiatrists have, which means we
keep everything confidential."
Depending on the individual
case, Amato says her staff will
sometimes refer the student to an
outside professional for additional
help.
"If
you have a problem with
che~cal dependency or substance
abuse; I urge you to get help," said
Murray. "Likewise, if you have
friends who abuse drugs
,
please
urge them to get help for their own
sake-you will be doing them a
great favor."
Commuters seek parking plan
by Anu Ailawadbi
The Marist College Commuter
Union has organized a committee
to voice its concerns about parking
at Marist, according to Commuter
Union President Norman Clancy.
The main purpose of the park-
ing committee is "to establish a
comprehensive parking plan that
will
improve the parking situation
at Marist," said Clancy, a junior
from Poughkeepsie.
Members of the Commuter
Union feel that parking is inade-
quate, according to Clancy. "The
basic problem is that Donnelly and
Marist East are the two major
buildings with student and staff
traffic, yet this is where the park-
ing
accommodations are least ade-
quate," he said.
Marist has five parking lots open
to student use: at the McCann
Center, next to Champagnat,
across from Benoit and Gregory
houses, and at the north and souili
ends of Marist East.
The Donnelly lot
is
for
facul-
ty/ staff parking only.
Although there is overcrowding
in the south lot at Marist East, the
north lot is not used to its capaci-
ty, according
to
Rolarid Quinlan,
assistant director of security.
The Commuter Union has blam-
ed poor nighttime lighting condi-
tions for the underuse of the north
lot, and Joseph Waters, director of
safety
and security, said that Marist
has asked the owners of the Marist
East building to install more
lighting.
Some commuters have com-
plained about the distance between
the lots and their classrooms. "I
usually park in Cbampagnat, and
it gets frustrating having to walk
that far, and if you leave
books
in
the
car then there is
that
issue of
walkiDJt back and forth," said
Christine Ehrhard, a sophomore
from Fishkill, N.Y.
Jim Bier, the vice president of
the Commuter Union, said that
because Marist has accepted so
,
many more students this year,
parking bas become an even greater
problem than in the past. "It's
hard to (deal with) Marist parking,
which was designed whtn the
school had a lesser population,"
said Bier.
·
Waters said Marist has hired an
architect to review campus road-
ways and parking and to make
recommendations.
When asked what made him
form the parking committee at
Marist, Clancy said: "When I
drove around Marist for I 5
minutes looking for a parking spot
and I didn't find one .•
.l
realized
there was a problem, because when
I did fmd a spot it was in Cleveland
somewhere.''

Watching our own
'fhe recent crimes that have occured on campus have touched
too many lives.
One can not make oneself immune to being victimized, but com-
mon sense and a few precautions may make one a little bit safer.
For instance, why was an intoxicated 26-year-old man let into
a locked dorm at
2:30
a.m.? Or why was the door of a dorm room
unlocked and partially open while someone was sleeping inside?
Increased self-protection
is
not the only answer to the safety pro-
blems that are currently plaquing us-let's protect each other.
Extra room in your car offered to a lone walker on his or her
way home to campus could prevent a crime from occuring and do
a lot for your own conscience.
The layout of the campus makes it virtually impossible to con-
trol who enters the grounds. The notification of Security at the
sight or sound of anything suspicious will aid them in their effort
to protect us.
The college should also take increased precautions with campus
housing. Locks on doors and windows -
especially in the
townhouses where sliding glass doors promise easy access inside
-
should all be intact. Housephones, the sole means of com-
munication for some areas of campus, must be in working order
and walkways should be lit at all times.
A security system made of equipment and machinary
will
always
have its faults and weaknesses. But, if supplemented by a human
effort, one that includes cooperation a,od dedication, the odds are
that crime on campus
can
be kept under control.

The real and the rest
by
Julia
E. Munay
Every day you run into at least
one of them. Some days the cam-
pus
is
almost overflowing with
disgruntled students who complain
·
about not attending a "real" col-
lege, though they're never quite
specific
about what a "real" col-
lege
is.
It
would seem though, that
one qualification of a "real" col-
lege is that it is attended by "real"
students. Here we may have a
problem.
According to all that our pro-
fessors and parents have told us, a
"real" student is a serious
in-
dividual who is dedicated solely to
the pursuit of truth, justice and a
good education, regardless of Hap-
py Hour. The professors have laid
down very strict criteria for judg-
ing whether or not a student is
"real," and every day the gap bet-
ween "real" students and Marist
students
seems
to widen, or does
it?
The "real" student, for instance,
knows the importance of using his
textbooks to the fullest extent.
They are vital to his existence as a
Marist East there is sure to
be
a
clock which reads one p.m. It's not
the student's fault that the clock in
question isn't in his classroom.
Besides, Marist students are always
on time to leave the class, which is
more than some professors
can
say.
"Real" students always ask lots
of questions too, or so we are told.
They even ask questions two
minutes before the class ends, and
don't care
if
the professor keeps the
class
late to hear the answer. Marist
students ask many questions as
well, such as, "Do you accept late
papers?" and "Do we have to have
a final?'
.
'
_
and "Do you know it's
12:46?"
Doing homework is also part of
a "real" student's creed. To him,
liomework should be done as soon
as it is assigned, and in a silent
room, because homework is a
serious business
.
.
Marist students
know how nnportaot homework
is
too, which is why they are filling
to do it while watching their
favorite television show, the night
before it is due.
Such
things
must
not be done
in
baste,
the
instant
that they are assigned,
but
rather,
they should
be
savored until
the
very last minute.
Yet another
cbaractcristic of
a
"real" student
is that
he
does ex-
tra reading
and
writing
fOI'
his
classes
on
his
own
time.
The
Marist
student also
docs this,
but
in
a
more creative
fashion.
Is he to
blame
.
because
his aa:ounting
teacher won't give
him
extra
aedit
for balancing his
checkbook,
and
"Rolling Stone" is
not
considered
American Lit?
One final
mark of a
'"real"
stu-
dent cannot
be
argued
with,
though. A "real"
studmt
does
not
fall asleep, or even
yawn,
in
class.
While not all Marist students fall
prey to these sins, we must admit
there are a few.
Only
ooc
thing can
be said in these
poor
students'
defense: Given
the
standard
defini-
tion of a "real"
student.

Marist student also knows the value
of books, though. Books
can
be us-
ed to prop open windows and
doors, to write letters upon, to kill
insects and even to pound tacks in
the wall. No Marist student -would
dare sneer at a textbook.
Punctuality
is
also
a
characteristic of
a
"real" student.
A "real" student is never late for
class, or even just "on time." He
is always seated and ready to go at
least five minutes before class
starts. Marist students are also very
punctual, considering the dif-
ferences between "real time" and
"Marist time." Even if a student
shows up for a one o'clock class at
1 :30. somewhere in Donnelly or

by Kieran Alex Murphy
Ever since Breton
Ellis Easton
came out with
"Less Than Zero,"
I've been regretting the fact that
I
didn't think of writing a "Catcher
in the Rye" for the 21st century.
The anguish of adolescence
is a
volatile subject seldom captured in
literature and almost never in mm.
It
is another Friday night in
suburbia.
I'm in my mother's
kit-
chen which
is
done in hospitalesque
white: white tile floor against steel
smooth white countertops and
cabinets against a white stucco ceil-
ing. The clock with no numbers
above the white hood of the Jenn-
Air hums along at just after 6:30.
I sit alone,
solemnly
eating a
can
of yummy, mrnmmm, delish cream
of mushroom soup. I could have
had Manhattan clam chowder or
even chicken noodle but I was hop-
ing, through some bizarre chain of
events, one of the fourteen allotted
fleshy fungi particles would be of
the poisonous species. At least my
antibodies would have something
to do tonight.
The tedium has progressed into
·
its final stages of debilitation.
As
I eat, I'm reading the back panel
of a package of brownies that per-
tains to baking according to
altitudes. My thoughts mesh into a
twisted SAT question:
"O.K.
let's
see
now, sea level...1000 feet,
65,000 ft., ah yes, if Betty Crocker
is baking in a non-controlled en-
vironment on the brink of inner
space, maybe on the space shuttle,
she would need half a day to cook
the round 9-inch devil's food cake.
And of course only a half-crazed
fool would even attempt the
upside-down sponge cake, except in
a non-Euclidean universe
...
The phone rings on line
1.
It's
my friends. The same friends I've
had since sixth grade and they are
up to the same old stuff.
"What are you guys doing?" I
ask.
"Why don't you come over
Finster's," my friend Kevin replies.
"We
got this video about a
hou~ewife and a baby-sitter who
tour the midwest mutilating would~
be psychopaths with a food pro-
cessor. It's called 'Human
Casserole'. After this we're going
to O'Riordan's and hopefully we'll
wind up at Howard Johnsons face
down in some waffles and ice
cream. Are you coming'?"
I roll my eyeballs, but there is no
one in the studio audience to can
some laughter.
They are a real sensitive bunch,
my friends. Get them started on
Helen Keller jokes and it's
20
minutes before they break into the
standard dead-monkey fare.
"Kev, I'll call you back in a lit~
tie while. I'll probably be out later,
but I don't want to disconvenience
anyone by making you wait for
me."
"Listen
pal,
don't blow us off.
If
you call us back in a half-hour
and say: 'No guys I'm not coming
out because I want to stay home
and edit the phone book,' you've
had it. We'll dissemble a
McDonald's Play-Land and erect
it on your front lawn. I'm sure
your step-dad would love to see the
Grimace doing the jockey-with-
the-lantern
act
after ten grand
worth of landscaping."
"Yeah,
very funny chief. I'll
call
you later."
Now I call Melissa to see if I can
get a better bid on an evenings'
entertainment. I tell myself this is
not a slimy thing to do. What do
I owe my friends'? I
dial
the number
and there are a
few
moments ofter-
ror caused by classical condition-
ing from my last girlfriend. But
with Melissa I have a marked van-
tage point. She will never set any
I.Q.
records and she is infatuated
with me. I hope it's not a causal
relationship between the two.
Fortunately, her mom answers.
Last time I called I got her dad and
his small-talk had all the idiomatic
charm of an NRA bumpersticker.
I use all the phone etiquette possi-
ble on her mom and she eats it up.
" Oh, you must be that young
man Melissa mentioned at dinner,''
she
says.
"I hope so,"
is
my
reply
and the most stupid remark I could

"Melissa tells me you're quite a
distinguished figure in student
government."
The tape-loop on The Concern-
ed Young Person kicks in, blah-
blah-blah. My attention drifts in-
to the refrigerator and I reach for
a
can
of Redi-Whip on the door.
I hear, ''Well, if there were more
concerned people like you , we'd be
a lot better off." As she says this
I absent-mindedly insert the nozzle
of the Redi-Whip in my right
nostril and give it a healthy squirt.
I then realize what kind of grotes-
que sound this must have made on
the other end of the phone and I
congratulate myself on my mental
agility and foresight.
I wait. Rearranging the magnets
on the fridge and watching the
hands on the clock, I listen for
sounds of domesticity. I hear
nothing; no T. V., no little brother
screaming,
no
dad
asking
where the

Melissa picks up and says hi,
knowing
it's
me,
so
I know
she's
been debriefed by her mom. I say
hi and
try
to keep things moving.
"Are you busy tonight'?,'' I ask,
and it sticks in my throat like
a
rot-
ting cliche. "I don't know.
What
would you want to do," she
says
with an odd twinge of impatience
in her voice.
I'm stumped. What does she
mean, 'what do I want to do'?' She
knows that here in the 21st
century
the permutations of entertainment
are limited to movies and putt-putt
golf.
"How 'bout a movie," I say
uninterested. "There's nothing
worth seeing," she replies.
I'm feeling ultra-defensive
and
I
know I'm about to get irrational.
I say: "Can I call you back'?" She
says, "Sure!,'' in her sweet and
bouncy voice which has me reeling
off the tum-buckle. I hang up
con-
fused, but at least I have time to
redeploy my strategic forces.
It was a good conceptual idea to
take a minute out to cool down,

whole. It's too late to double

feet.
I'm trying to tJpnk off what
Holden Caufield or Sean Penn
would
do with this deluge of
repressed anger.
With
all the
inarticulate
rage of
the
best method actor, I walk over
to
the basement door and call,
"Muffins!"
Muffins is my mother's dog. She
dotes
on this bitch.of a Yorkshire
Terrier and NewFoundland, while
the thought of this dog's concep-
tion
makes
me nauseous. Anyhow,
the people across the street got a
pure-bred
Poodle. So get this. My
mom
took Muffins to the vet for
$5000
worth of cosmetic surgery.
The intent was to prevent Muffins
from developins an inferiority
complex.
Now she looks like

mid-
metamorphosis to the wolf-man.
I
call, "Muffins! Muffins!."
There
is some rustling in the
darkness

cellar
and I hear her

nails
tapping
rhythmically
on the cement floor.
Muffins, being
high-strung and
dangerously
zealous, does exactly

Incidentally, those green eyes are
non-functional. My mother has this
marvelously idiotic comment
whenever Muffins is underfoot.
"Careful

,
she's legally
blind you know." How can a dog
be
'legally
blind'. Is the insurance
investigator going to hold up an eye
chart in court or is the prosecuting
attorney going to explain to the
judge, "Your honor,
this
shameless
mutt has feigned sightlessness in a
cunning
ploy to swindle inheritance
out of this slightly neurotic
businesswoman.•'
As
Muffins reaches the second to
last step, I start the basement door
moving swiftly on its well-oiled
hinges. The door slams neatly, and
a micro-second later there is the
subsequent thud of 25 pounds of
silly-dog-flesh making impact and
tumbling back down the stairs.
You figure there are 52 Fridays

on to this little game by now. But

Is
hardcore No.
1?
this week
by
Eric Turpia
Hardcore: the sight of angry
youths thrashing to the sounds of
some neo-political ideology, where
you can be yourself and be sup-
ported by others who think the
same way.
It
is safe to assume that
hardcore is more than music; it
is
social and cultural all at the same
time.
Since hardcore seems to have a
higher intelligence quotient than
any other form of music, many
believe it to be a
direct throwback
to the days of the sixties when the
same type of non-conformist, anti-
establishment
attitude
was
prevalant. Now don't get the wrong
idea -
hardcore
is
not a descen-
dent of the whole sixties move-
ment, but it is a very, very distant
cousin of that scene if you look at
black
on
white
the attitudes and ideologies of its
performers and fans.
Now that I have seemingly
glorified hardcore to a very high
level, let's get down to some cold,
hard facts about this rebellious
sound. Out of all the hardcore
bands that exist, only one group
has actually attained a deal with a
major record label. lbat band
is
an
American group called Husker
Du.
So with all the independent
labels floating around to pick up
this sound, (Thank
God
for in-
dependent labels) hardcore has
found a home. It looks like that
home is here to stay with the sales
of bands like Agnostic Front,
Cir-
cle Jerks and Dead Kennedys all
ex-
ceeding 100,000 copies per album.

reel
impressions
But the fact still remains that
Hardcore fans and Metal-Heads
have very bad feelings toward one
another. Let's explore this issue
from the point of a hardcore fan.
I talked to a number of people who
like hardcore and asked them why
the fans of each music form can-
not peacefully co-exist. All the
reactions seemed to be the
same-
the hardcore fans consistently put
Metal down. They thought it was
the metal fans that gave them a
hard time for being themselves.
They said metal was the lesser of
the two forms and thrash bands
like Venom, Metallica and Slayer
were just ripping off hardcore
bands. In talking to these people,
one could almost feel an
air
of ar-
rogance about their music.
Christine Erhard, a fan of hardcore
said, "Hardcore has a deeper pur-
pose than metal does and hardcore
is more active." Jeff Nicosia, who

Bogie and Bacall they ain't!
"Shanghai Surprise," the latest
adventure film starring Sean Penn
and his sidekick Madonna,
is, by
no surprise, a major flop!
Set in Shanghai during the
Japanese occupation of China in
1938, Madonna plays a prim and
proper missionary, Gloria Tatlock,
who is trying to locate 1000 pounds
of missing opium to be used to
ease
the pain of wounded Chinese
soldiers.
Fortunately, there's Glendon
Wasey, played by Peno,
a
strand-
~
American who plans on impor-
ting glow-in-the-dark painted nudie
ties. He
agrees
to help
Miss-
Tatlock
and her mission search for the
opium, for
a
ticket back to the
States.
Everyone in Shanghai
is
after the
opium, as well as
Miss
Tatlock and
Wasey. The only one who bolds the
key to the opium mystery is China
Doll, a beautiful, eccentric empress
with whom Wasey
is
fixed up
because he resembles a man she
once loved. She seduces
him
but
leaves
him
with no answers to the
mystery, which was the whole pur-
pose of their meeting.
The plot
is
very confusing and
after a while, you fmd yourself giv-
ing in the attempt to follow it, hop-
ing that it will all be explained in
the end. This whole
thing
is
a fee-
ble attempt to make a Bogie and
Bacall
or Gable and Harlow classic.
After her successful film debut
as the outrageous Susan in
"Desperately
Seeking
Susan,"
Madonna, to say the least, was not
impressive. Her attempt to pull off
the role of a
missionary,
much less
a prim and proper woman, was a
real joke. It was obvious that this
role was not created with her in
mind.
Penn was no better. You would
at least expect some quality acting
out of
him
after gaining public ac-
ceptance in such films as, "Fast
Times at Ridgemont High,"
"Taps"
and "The Falcon and The
Snowman." Penn was a great
disappointment in this film.
One of the major flaws in the
film was casting this husband and
wife duo with leading roles. The
whole relationship built around
Tatlock and W~y was very weak
and very predictable.
Here you have a smart-mouthed
guy,
who takes
orders from some
dame he hardly even knows. You
know the twosome would eventual-
ly end up together -
and they do.
But they lack the zest of romance
and adventure and ifs boring to
watch them on screen.

A gleaming smile from. abroad shines here
by Paul Kelly
Last Sunday night at 10:55 p.m,
Kudzai Kambarami sat in front of
a terminal in Marist's Donnelly
Hall computer facility waiting for
the next five minutes to pass, so he
could
begin
his
11 p.m.-7 a.m. shift
working for Security.
Most people would not be
enamored with facing
an
eight-
how shift in the dead of night,
especially
with
classes the next mor-
ning and soccer practice in the
afternoon.
But Kambarami, 22, is smiling
brightly.
Kambarami,
a sophomore, came
to Marist in January
1985, from
Harare, Zimbabwe. Since his
ar-
rival in Poughkeepsie, he has made
many people, especially

proacbed Goldman and told
him
he
would like to play for the Red
Foxes' booters in the upcoming
season.
"I
may as well try it, as this way
his inexperience and became an in-
tegral part of the Marist attack.
"I had to get myself together.
When I first came here it was pret-
ty hard, yet when
I
met people,
I
get more confident."
Kambarami rejoined the team
this season, and the friendships he
made amongst teammates
and
others last year may be a great
reason in explaining why he is the
third-leading
scorer
on the squad so
far this year.
"I
don't know anyone who has
a problem with him," said
Goldman. "He is
·
a very pleasant
young man and fits right in."

"His biggest drawback is his
ability to read the game, but that
will come with experience," said
Goldman. Goldman also noted
how Kambarami often remains at
practice after other players have
gone to the showers, happily nur-
turing his growing soccer skills.
Off the field, Kambarami glows
when he talks about his classes in
computers and especially about the
friends he has met at Marist.
"I
like
the people and the school and I like
attending the classes, he said.
"People have pretty good attitudes
and it's easy to know them."

"He's a very hard worker and
learned quite a bit in a short period
of time," said Goldman.
One aspect of American sports
Kambarami quickly realized was
the intensity people in the States
play their games. "They take it
more seriously here as you work
much harder. At home, it's
something you do to pass time,"
said Kambarami.
The pressure to perform day-in
and day-out took its effect on
Kambarami, as he left the team
midway through last season. Look-
ing back, he said, meeting people
helped him overcome this difficult
time.

Back in the computer room, a

The clock struck 11, and Kam-

he and his fellow workecs, there
must have been many smiling faces
that lonely night making the rounds
around the Marist grounds.

Penalties kill Foxes; FDU-Madison is next
by Paul Kelly
Yellow, yellow and more yellow.
That was the color Marist Foot-
ball Coach Mike Malet warited to
see no more of last Saturday as
costly penalties stopped any chance
the Red Foxes had for victory
in
their 29-21 Homecoming loss to St.
John's.
,
Marist saw yellow penalty flags
10
times for 110 yards, and five of
those infractions allowed the
Redmen to keep the ball and score.
• 'When you give up two
touchdowns and three field goals,
that's difficult to overcome," said
Malet.
The
Red
Foxes
will
visit Farleigh
Dickinson-Madison this Friday
night
in
the first of three con-
secutive
away
contests. Lastyear,
Marist shut out the
Jersey
Devils,
7--0.
Saturday, St. John's raced out to
a 17-0 first-quarter lead behind
senior quarterback Paul K~er and
junior placekicker Anthony
Tricario. Koster tossed scoring
strikes of 2 and 24 yards and
Tricario booted the first of his
school-record three field goals
from 43 yards out.
Koster
riddled
the Marist secon-
dary
for 201 yards on a stellar
18-for-28 performance. On the
ground, the Redmen were
paced
by
senior halfback Bryan Williams'
game-high 114 yards.
Marist outscored the
Redmen
each of the final three quarters.
The Red Foxes narrowed the score
to 26-21 with 12
:06
remaining
when
halfback Ed Christensen rushed 2
of his 112 yards for a touchdown,
his second of the
game.
Christensen's first score came
ear-
ly in the second quarter
when
he
rambled
in
from 2 yards
away.
However, the Red Foxes
could
come no closer as Tricario
kicked
a 32-yard field goal with
8:36
left.
"'We played great football the
last
30 to
40
minutes but we couldn"t
get out of the hole that we dug.""
said Malet.
Marist's linemen on both
sides
of
scrimmage played well,
according
to Malet. "Our game p1an
was to
pressure the quarterback (Koster),
and we did.
Also,
the offensive
line
did a great job blocking,"
said
Malet.
One area where Marist had
dif-
ficulty was passing. Juniors
Jon
Cannon and Jim Fedigan and
sophomore Jason Thomas con-
tributed to just 57 yards combined
via the air. Fedigan did
ronnect
with senior fullback Mark Burl-
ingame on a 4-yard touchdown
pass
in
the third quarter, but
Malet
still was not pleased.
''None of them have won it (the
starting job) yet, and
that

something we've got to fix soon,"
said
Malet.
Marist faces a much-improved
FDU-Madison squad Friday. ac-
cording to Malet.
"If
we go out
'80d make mistakes and allow them
to keep drives going, then we're not
going to

We've got to go out

and play to our level of ability from

something we haven't done yet,"
said Malet.
Booters split two; tough schedule remains
by Michael J. Nolan
The Marist soccer team defeated
St. John's University 4-2 Saturday
to boost its record to 3-4.
Marist freshman midfielders
Greg Healy and John Farrell each
netted goals, and senior forward
Jim McKenna added a penalty kick
goal. The first goal for Marist came
at 9:26 in the fust half off the foot
of a St. John's defensive player.
But Coach Dr.
Howard
Goldman said the game was not
played well. He said the game was
strenuous and very physical and
riddled with mistakes. Yet he con-
sidered it a good
win,
h~ said.
"We played the way we
bad to
play to win," he said. "We played
well for that particular kind of
game
and
were
more
opportunistic.''
The Red Foxes will travd
to
Maryland on Saturday for an
ECAC Metro Conference
game
against Loyola College.
Last Wednesday, Marist lost
to
St. Francis College of
New Y
ort
by
a score of 3-1.
The team played well but
St.
Francis played a tenacious
and
full
game of soccer, Goldman said.
..They
kept coming at us,•• he said,
0
but we did a commendable job
against a very good team.'•
The St. John's game might be a
possible spring board for the rest
of
the season, according to
Goldman. The team played well
against St. Francis and had an ef-
fective game against a more
physical St. John's team, he said.
"Powbly things are starting to jell,
but
we'll have to
see
in
the next few
games," he said.
Goldman looks forward to the
continued good play of juni_~r
goalkeeper Joe Madden, he said.
Madden posted 11 saves
in
a strong
campaign against St.John's. His
technique is good and he is one of
the most experienced of the five
goaltenders on the Red Fox roster,
according to Goldman.
Goldman, however, is concern-
ed about the remaining games of
the season, he said. The Red Foxes
will play Long Island University,
Loyola College and Hartwick Col-
lege - all nationally ranked teams
-
within the next four weeks.
To be successful the midfield
needs to assert itself, he said.
"Runner's status appealed_,
Men triumph; women sixth
by Paul Kelly
Marist Cross Country Coach Steve Lurie said an appeal has
been
sent to the ECAC Metro Conference office in Baltimore regarding
the decision which ruled Marist senior John Clements ineligible
to run for the Red Foxes this season.
The ECAC ruled Clements ineligible because this year would
be his sixth calendar year of collegiate running, a violation of
NCAA rules. The limit set by the NCAA is five calendar years.
Clements was one of the Red Foxes' top performers last year,
and Lurie said his addition this year would improve the team.
"I
think you're talking about seventh or eighth in the State meet in-
stead of 12th or 13th," said Lurie.
Cements transferred to Marist
in
January 1985 from the
Univa-
sity of Connecticut. where he was enrolled from September
1981
to December 1983.
Lurie said the basis of the appeal was that Clements has run on-
ly two cross country seasons, two indoor track seasons and one
outdoor track season
in
his collegiate career. Also, Clements was
not recruited by Marist and receives no financial aid from the col-
... lege, Lurie said.

Last
Satwday.,s cross country
meet at The King's College was
supposed to be an escape from dif-

for the Marist men's cross country
team.
The squad did escape -
with a
slim victory over the U.S. Mer-
chant Marine Academy, 66-70, in
·
the Varsity A race.
Head Coach Steve Lurie at-
tributed the _team's underpar per-
formance to season-long fatigue.
..They are a tired, tired group of
athletes. We were lucky to

out
of this one with the win," said
Lurie.

cros.s-town rival
Vassar.
The
Marist
team's next race is the Hunter In-
vitational in Van Cortlandt Park,
New York City, Oct. 12.
The men were led by the second-
place finish of junior Don Rear-
don, who covered the five-mile
course in 25:55.
Reardon was followed by juniors
Steve Brennan (9th, 27:23), Jeff
Nicosia (15th, 27:47), Glen Mid-
dleton (21st, 28:06) and sophomore
Bob Sweeney (30th, 28:42).
Senior captain Jean Clements
was the first Marist women's
finisher, placing seventh with a per-
sonal best of 20:09 for 5,000
meters. Following Clements were
sophomore Jennifer -Pragomeni
(12th, 20:21), junior Annie Breslin
(23rd, 21:01), freshman Jean Har-
ris (60th, 23:23) and sophomore
Pam Shewchuk (68th, 24:06).
Lurie noted the men's team's
poor start hurt them Saturday.
"We have to do more 'of getting
in-
to the thick of the race. This field
was so bad that there was no reason
why we shouldn't have been up
there,"
.
Lurie said.
The women's team performance
pleased Lurie, especially since
sophomore Helen Gardner could
not run because of a head injury.
"From an original pool of six
girls,
just the fact that
they
have five
girls
that still fmish is great," said Lurie.
A bonus for the men's team was
the addition of Middleton, who
was able to run when his ROTC
duty was canceled.
Without a productive midfield the
transition from defense to offense
falters, he added.
Goldman is also concerned with
the injuries which have plagued the
Foxes throughout the season, he
said. SophoJqore ~weepei: Dave
Sullivan
missed the St. John's game
and may miss the next few games
due to a back injury and junior
midfielder Kevin Segrue may
be
lost' for a game due to injury,
Goldman said.
The results of yesterday's game
against Siena College were
unavailable for this issue of The
