Dr. Andrew Kayiira, a Marist
professor imprisoned
on charges of
treason
in his native Uganda since
the
first week of October, has con-
tracted malaria, according to Dr.
Barbara Lavin, a professor of
criminal justice at Marist.
Kayiria's wife, Betty, was in-

The Criminal Justice Club held
a raffle last week and raised
$151

Rob Saunders, president of the
Criminal Justice Club.
"His

Nov. 25.
"A personal

Kayiira, a member of the
Banganda tribe in Uganda, had
returned earlier tQ {Jganda and
began to serve as minister of energy

under Musevini's new government
in February, according to Lavin.
Kayiira, as minister of energy,
was interested in researching energy
policies suitable for a small and

developing country, according to
Lavin. In particular, he was trying
to develop such alternatives to im-
porting oil as solar energy, she said.

Carl Gerberich, an adjunct pro-
fessor of computer science at
Marist, will serve in the new ad-
ministrative position of vice presi-
dent for information services, ac-
cording to Executive Vice President
John Lahey.
The new vice president position
was created after attempts to hire
a new director of the Computer
Center were futile, according to
Lahey, who added the previous
searches had not attracted the
quality of applicants desired for the
position.
The position of Director of the
Computer Center has been vacant
sinceJune
1985
when
Cecil
Denney,
former director, took a job at the
Unjversity of Texas Medical School
at Galveston. Jim Falanga held the
position of acting director until
February
1986
when he resigned to
take a job in private industry.
Since then, the Computer Center
has been run by Edward Waters,
vice president for administration
and finance, and three computer
coordinators, Harry Anderson,
Wendy Whitely and Paula
Trimble.

to

joyed Thanksgiving at the
center - thanks to Patrice and
her volunteers. Patrice said that
was the only year she ran out of
food.
"I remember my staff bring-
ing me the last plate of turkey
at the end of the day, when we
thought we'd fed everyone,''
she said. "Just then, an elderly
man came in -
so I gave him
my dinner."
Anonymous sources and local
businesses, such as IBM and
Christo's restaurant, have
donated turkeys, stuffing, sweet
potatoes, cakes, apple cider,
paper goods and their .own time
and money
to
help with the an-
nual event. Patrice has also ob-
tained
free use
of two rental cars
to deliv.er meals to those people
who cannot leave their homes.
Yet, it's Patrice who will
spend countless hours and
sleepless nights
worrying
about
whether there will be enough
food for everyone. Last year,
she had to quietly tell her staff
to "cut back a little on the
gravy, so there would be enough
for everyone."
More than
35
volunteers help
to prepare and serve the meals,
but Patrice said some people are
less sincere than others.
"I
know that some of the
politicians who help me are do-
ing it for the publicity, and
I
know that others are just trying
to clear their consciences," she
said. "Still, the people I really
feel sorry for are those who
can
help, but don't."
Patrice said the people who
come to the dinners range in age
from 8 to 88, and some return
for the meal every year.
"It
breaks my heart to see
these people who come back
year after year because they

Patrice, a native of New
Orleans, said she decided to of-
fer the dinners because she
remembered eating only bread
and water on Thanksgiving
when she was a child.
She is involved in several
community organizations, in-
cluding the Lower Main Street

Jamaican Concerned Citizens
Association. Patrice is also in-

who deserve the awards.

A trip through time: The Vanderbilt mansion
by Chris Meyer
High above the Hudson River,
nestled peacefully, and privately,
in
the hills and woods of Dutchess
County, stands one family's tribute
to a time of luxury and
extravagance.
The era was the "Guilded Age"
-0f America, and the tribute, which
once served as the party grounds
for one of this country's wealthiest
families, was a spring and autumn
retreat.
There was a time when the
Vanderbilt mansion hosted the
likes of Franklin Roosevelt, the
Astors and the Millses, and the
Duke of Marlborough - but now
it hosts anyone who wants to see
an extravagent piece of history,
preserved and maintained by the
National Park Service.
The Vanderbilt mansion, also
referred to as a "three-story
American palace," was built by
Frederick Vanderbilt, the grandson
of transportation magnate "Com-
modore" Cornelius Vanderbilt. It
took 3-years and
$660,000
to com-
plete, and was only one of ten
buildings on the 678 acre spread.
Now, instead of servants bustl-
ing around, tourists from all over
Rock job keeps
student rolling
by C. M. Hlavaty
Unlike some students at Marist,
Derek Simon knows exactly what
he wants to do in life -
artd he's
already doing it.
Simon, a 20-year-old junior at
Marist,
is
the director of radio pro-
motion at Concrete Management
and Marketing in New York City.
He has rubbed elbows with musical
celebrities like David Lee Roth,
KISS, Tears For Fears and The
Smithereens.
Somehow, Simon juggles a
career and 15 credits at the same
time. Perched in his room beneath
rock posters of Cinderella, Echo
and the Bunnymen, and The Cure,
he said the days he works in New
York City start early and end late.
"There's at least one or two full
days that I spend in the city," said
Simon. "I catch an 8 o•clock train
and don't get back here until 10 at
night or so."
Simon, from Syosset,
N.Y.,
first
took interest in the promotional
business while working in non-
commercial radio in both high
school and college. Currently, he is
the general manager of campus
radio station
WMCR.
He began his career with an
entry-level position at Polygram
Records in New York City. Then,
Simon was offered a position at
Concrete Management and
Marketing. "Financially, they
made it most feasible for me to
work there," he said.
Most of the company
'
s work in-
volves managing heavy-metal
bands. "That's where a lot of
money is to be made, very honest-
ly," said Simon.
Simon explained that much of
his work involves promoting bands
on concert tours before they arrive
in particular cities.
"Let
'
s say Lou ~eed and The
Smithereens are going to be in
Chicago," Simon said. "I try to
make sure the radio stations in
Chicago have enough LP's, that
they're playing the LP, that the
stores have enough LP's and that
journalists who need to get to the
show get to the show - basically,
just advancing the tours."
Balancing school work with a
professional career involves careful
planning, according to Simon.
"You have to keep your priorities
straight," he said. "(It means)
keeping your schedule straight,
knowing what papers are due
when, things like that." Because of
his job, Simon has had to avoid
registering for classes that meet on
Fridays.
Several companies have already
offered him full-time jobs, some of
which he has considered accepting.
"It's not entirely out of the ques-
tion that I would leave if I got
another offer," Simon admitted.
"I'm just assuming that if there are
offers now, there'll be offers
later."
Currently, Simon is promoting
musicians such as former KISS
guitarist Vinny Vincent, The
Smithereens, Metal Church and
Slayer. After
.
Christmas, he will be
working with the popular heavy-
metal group Bon Jovi for six
months. That will mean a lot of
traveling.
Simon is out of town every se-
cond or third weekend. In recent
months, he has traveled to
Arizona, California and Texas.
"The travel does take it's toll," he
sighed. "You feel it -
you
definitely feel it."
Still, there are some fringe
benefits to the job, Touring with
bands also means attending their
parties.
"They're not completely crazy
and lunatic kinds of parties -
scamper through the mansion,
whispering comments and gaping
at the elegance.
A visit to the mansion begins
with a slide presentation shown at
the visitor's center. The show
describes the life and times of the
Commodore and the third genera-
tion Frederick.
What serves today as the visitor's
center served a different purpose
during the Vanderbilt's time, ac-
cording to Cooper Leatherwood,
who has been a guide there for
three years.
It was the first completed struc-
ture on the grounds, aside from the
original Langdon House, which
Frederick had tom down in order
to build his own mansion.
The visitor's center, known to
the Vanderbilts as the Pavilion, was
constructed in 1895, and used by
the Frederick, and his wife Louise,
as a residence while the actual man-
sion was being built.
"I'd put up a tent to watch my
house being built," said Cooper,
"they put up a house to watch their
house being built."
The grounds were left to
Frederick's niece, Margaret van
Allen, after his death in 1938. Van
Allen, who did not need the man-

they're normally held in nice little
restaurants or clubs," said Simon.
Recent parties he has attended in-
cluded one for Genesis at the
Palladium in Manhattan, a birth-
day party for Dave Stewart of the
Eurythmics (which was also held at
the Palladium) and a ceremony at
the Tavern On The Green to award
Cinderella its gold records.
Simon said he enjoys the parties.
"It means seeing something that
you've Worked hard on come to a
celebration," he said. "That's one
time that every one you've been
working with can get together -
the artists, the radio people and the
press people."
Although he has been tempted to
take a full-time job in the record
promotions business, Simon said
his primary interest is to finish his
'college education.
"The only thing that's been
tough for me is the commitment to
school," he said. "While it would
be easy for me to take a job and
really make some money, I realize
my commitment is to my education
at this point."

to sell it.
In late 1938, she put it on the
market for the "low sale price" of
$350,000, and by 1939, she drop

ped the price to a remarkable
$250,000, according to Cooper.
Both asking prices included all
ten outside buildings, and 678
acres, including Frederick's
livestock farm. The mansion itself
consists of 54 fully furnished rooms
and 14 bathrooms.
Even at this low price, van Allen
was unable to sell the mansion,

advice, she donated it, and most of

Marist goes
mail order
by Beth-Kathleen McCauley
Taped to the corner of Marist
Bookstore Manager Anthony
Dangelo's desk is a piece of paper
that reads, "A customer is the most
important person ever - in person,
on the phone, or by mail."
Starting this Janua·ry, the
bookstore will start to meet the
needs of customers - particularly
alumni -
by mail.
In the winter edition of the
Alumni News the bookstore will be
running an advertisement enabling
alumni to order Marist sweatshirts
and other paraphernalia by mail.
Dangelo said the income generated
by this advertisement will be set
aside for the eventual creation of
a Marist Bookstore catalog.
The advertisement will consist of
four pictures of models wearing
Marist shirts and sweatshirts with
descriptions and an order form.
Bob Fink, bookstore merchan
-
diser, who took the pictures for the
catalog, explained that as Marist
gro_w~, the boo~sti;,re must also
grow and expand to meet the needs
of the college community.
"Exposure from the basketball
team is what really started to pro-
pel this project," said Fink. "Peo-
ple who don't even go to school
here have called up looking for
sweatshirts and things with the
school name on it."
The publishing of an actual
catalog is an expensive undertak-
ing, said Dangelo, who started a
catalog for Niagara University's
bookstore before coming to Marist
.
According to him, it can cost up to
$5,000 for printing alone.
'.'You have to justify your ex-
penses before starting such a pro-
ject," said Fink. "We're going to
test the water to see what the
demands actually are."
Dangelo said he hopes to run the
advertisement in every issue of the
Alumni News. Additional adver-
tisements will be copied onto single
sheets to be distributed further.
Murray discusses Thomas funds,
NCAA,
Marist East
by Julie Sveda
To meet the total costs of the
Lowell Thomas Communications
Center, the college will use as much
as $1 million from its operating
,
budget if needed, President Dennis
Murray said at a press conference
with student journalists last week.
In the past, college ad-
ministrators had said the building
would be financed through private
gifts and grants only, without hav-
ing to use any of the college's
money toward the total cost, which
Murray estimated at $4 million.
Earlier estimates have been as high
as $4.5 million.
With the opening of the building
scheduled for the start of next
semester, the college has raised $2. 7
million, according to Murray, who
said he was optimistic that Marist
would meet its original fund-drive
goal of $3 million.
"The difference between the $3
and $4 million is a result of the
basement, which wasn't originally
planned," said Murray. "The base-
ment is a functional basement that
increased the usable space of the
building by one-third."
If money is needed from the
operating budget, which this year
is roughly $40 million, it will be
taken over an extended period of
time, said Murray.
Classes will be held at the start
of next semester in the new
building, located at the north end
of campus, but will initially lack
many of the finishing touches,
Murray said.
"Right now it is a reasonable ob-
jective that the building will be
done," said Murray. "It will be
fully operational by the end of next
semester
.
"
Turning to other subjects, Mur-
ray said NCAA investigators who
are looking into the men's basket-
ball program are continuing their
inquiry.
The investigation of the men's
basketball team was initiated after
Mike Perry, the former head
coach, resigned from the position
in September 1984, and the college
admitted to minor recruiting
violations.
"We just don't know exactly
where they are going with the in-
vestigation or what will come of
it," said Murray.
In September, The Poughkeep-
sie Journal printed a story that
alleged basketball player Rik Smits
might have broken NCAA rules by
accepting money to play basketball
in his native Holland. At the press
conference, Murray said the story
was not true and that he expected
Smits to play this season.
Concerning the college's con-
troversial postponement of a
debate on abortion earlier this
semester, Murray said a college
campus has to be open to virtually
any point of view, but he denied
that the postponement was a free-
speech issue.
College administrators have said
the postponement of the debate
stemmed entirely from contractual
problems with one of the speakers,
and Murray agreed.
In defense of free speech, Mur.-
ray said:
"If
you allow any group
to decide who can't speak on cam-
pus, then that does away with
freedom of ideas. The bottom line
is that the campus has to be open
to all points of view."
Turning to questions about the
future of the Marist East building,
Murray said the decision to renew
the lease on the building, which ex-
pires in August 1990, has not been
made. A second option for the col-
lege would be to construct a new
classroom building.
"During the early part of next
year, the board of trustees will have
a building retreat," Murray said.
"One of the issues will be what is
best regarding the institution and
that building
.
"
Seventy-five percent of all classes
are held in the Marist East
building
.
As for overcrowding in housing,
Murray said the college will con-
tinue to look for a solution, but the
chance of eliminating the housing
of students at the Canterbury
Apartments is slim.
"Hopefully, by the end of the
semester, the triples in Cham-
pagnat will be phased out," he
said. "In our planning for the
future we will take steps to reduce
the numbers. But for the im-
mediate future Canterbury will
have to be an option."
By using Canterbury, Marist
makes itself more available to
students, especially transfers, who
would otherwise have to make their
own arrangements for housing,
Murray said.
"Unlike other schools, we've

Silence shrouds crimes of sexual violence
by Ellen D' Arey
Only one. Only one out of every
four rapes is reported. Forty-five
rapes were reported in Dutchess
County in
1984. That means 180
rapes were probably committed -
most never known to police.
What is the reason for this high
percentage of concealed crime?
Jean Craven, coordinator of the
Dutchess County Victim Assistance
Program, attributes it mostly to the
inaccurate picture the media paint
when dealing with the prosecution
of accused rapists. "I have found
the police to be very sensitive.
It
is
no where near as difficult as the
media portray."
However, Craven said it is dif-
ficult to successfully prosecute
when the identity of the accused is
unknown. Two factors which must
be proven are that intercourse ac-

A year after the change,
how do you feel about the
21-year-old drinking age?
Ginger Mion, freshman, en-
vironmental science.
The changing
of the drinking age has made me

desperate action.

two more years.
tually occurred, and if so, that it
took place with "forcible
compulsion.''
In order to prove iritercourse, the
victim, usually a woman, would
have to undergo a medical exam
immediately following the rape.
Frequently, because of the nature
of the crime, this does not happen.
Secondly, forcible compulsion
becomes almost impossible to pro-
ve when acquaintance rape - what
is now commonly referred to as
date-rape -
occurs, according to
Craven.
"This is especially a big problem
on college campuses," Craven said.
"I'm sure it happens much more
than any of us suspect - it
just
is never
reported, so the kids
think
it
doesn't exist. They don't
think it can happen to them."
Craven said a significant reason
for date-rape is a question of

"Students need to say what they
mean and mean what they say,"
Craven said. "Being clear and
direct
in
all areas of life give a sense
of confidence and independence.
This can remove a lot of
vulnerability."
Craven said there are several
precautions a woman should take
when dealing with new acquain-
tances. First, find out from friends
a little about the person. "We can't
afford not to be a little nosey -
anybody can be charming and buy
a couple of drinks."
"Women
also
need to trust their
intuition - listen to themselves if
they are not completely comfor-
table with a situation,'' Craven
added. However, Craven stressed
again the importance of clear and
direct communication at all times.

potential rape, common sense and
composure are a woman's best
weapons.
''If
you are faced with
this situation, and decide to act,
you must do it immediately, using
your best judgment." Craven does
not recomm~d carrying or using
a weapon because it could easily be
turned against you.
"If
you are go-
ing to fight -
hit him where it
counts and make a lot of noise."
Craven added, "don't ring a
doorbell -
break a window."
"Most women assume a certain
amount of guilt when they have
been raped," Craven said. "They
don't need to hear any criticisms."
She added, "Rape is a life or death
situation, had they not cooperated
with the rapist they could have been
killed."

There has been discussion of a
rape crisis center to be started on

problem on any campus, Craven
said, students should take into ac-

"We are available 24 hours a

For the Red Fox men's team,
new coach and big expectations
by Paul Kelly
Ever since March 13, 1986, when the
final buzzer sounded in Louisiana State
University's Convention and Events
Center, it has been there-constantly
enveloping the Marist basketball team like
a wet blanket.
Great expectations.
The momentous day last spring when
the Red Foxes dropped a 68-S3 decision
to Georgia Tech in the opening round of
the NCAA Tournament Southeast
Regional forever catapaulted Marist from
the ranks of the small-timers, the little
guys, to a new plateau of national
prominence.
Despite the loss, performances such as
sophomore center Rik Smits' 22 points in
just 27 minutes of play fueled many peo-
ple's aspirations for this season.
Everybody around town and around
Eastern basketball circles was talking
about the Red Foxes. Runaway winner of
the ECAC Metro Conference, possible
spot in the top 20 - these were just a few
of the possibilities being mentioned for
1986-87.
.
Then, in May, the Red Foxes' joyride
came to a screeching halt.
Under intense pressure from various
sources, Head Coach Matt Furjanic
resigned during the third week of May.
Enter Dave Magarity.
Magarity, 3S, was hired as the seventh
head basketball coach in Marist history
June 10,
1986.
Despite the apparent stability
Magari-
ty has brought to the program in his first
six months in Poughkeepsie, one element
from the last spring has remained cons-
tant -
great expectations.
"There's a lot more pressure, but I was
prepared for that when I accepted the
job," said Magarity. "All I'm concern-
ed about is that this team is ready to
play."
Leading the way for Marist should be
Smits, whose 17. 7 points and 8.1 re-
bounds per contest in 198S-86 transform-
ed him from an unknown Dutch kid to
a potentially dominating force on the na-
tional level.
-
Smits will be joined in the frontcourt
by veteran Mark Shamley and last
season's ECAC Metro Rookie-of-the
Year, Miroslav Pecarski.
Shamley, a senior forward and three-
year starter, will look to continue his
"blue-collar" work habits on the court.
"It's no secret why he's where he is now,"
said Magarity. "He's a hard worker."
Pecarski, one of four members of the
Red Foxes' "Foreign Legion," needs to
augment his explosive offensive skills with
suitable defensive play, according to
Magarity.
The backcourt will once again be
manned by junior Drafton Davis and
senior Ron McCants.
"Drafton's mistakes have to be
minimized and he has to set the tempo of
the game," said Magarity.
Despite everyone's high aspirations for
this year's edition, Magarity noted the
team may not register a lofty early-season
record because of the players' lack of
familiarity to his new system. "lfwe have
growing pains in December, so be it,"
said Magarity. "But when we hit league
play in January, I want to be ready to
play."
After
a
quick change, Babineau
reridy
to lead women b-ballers
by Aline Sullivan
With no guarantees, no job security
and everything based on the outcome of
his performance, one has to ask why any
man would take a job with such chances.
"I want to be an overachiever," said
Ken Babineau, who replaced Patty Tor-
za as Marist head women's basketball
coach Oct. 2. "Sure I'm scared, but I'm
very excited to be here and I am looking
forward to getting started."
Babineau made a major decision when
he accepted the head coaching position at
Marist. The 36-year-old native of
Chicopee, Mass., spent the last two
_
years
as a part-time assistant
to
Torza while re-
taining a full-time tenured position as a
teacher in the Rhinebeck school district.
Babineau was offered the Marist head
coaching position after a search commit-
tee picked him as the prime candidate for
the vacancy created when Torza, who
compiled a 40-48 record in her three years •
at Marist, quit Sept. l. He decided to
resign from his 14-year job as a teacher
and enter the world of collegiate athletics
full time.
"It
was a point in my career for a
change," said Babineau, a 1972 Ithaca
College graduate. "I realize that my posi-
tion of coaching a Division One college
basketball program is not
as
secure as my
teaching position was, but it was
something I wanted to do, and the oppor-
tunity was there, so I took it."
Besides being a teacher and a coach,
Babineau is a husband of 12 years, and
a father to a S-year-old daughter, Brooke.
During the two years that Babineau
was
assistant coach for the Marist
women's basketball team, one of his
duties was to recruit prospective players.
"I already had an understanding of the
program, and I am familiar with its ex-
pectations, so I feel that the transition will
be smooth," said Babineau.
Babineau expressed an interest in not
only making the coaching transition
smooth, but insuring the team transfers
from Torza's philosophies to his own
ideas smoothly. He said he realizes his
style may differ from Torza's, but said
every coach has his or her own personal
style.
Last year, the Marist women's team
finished its season with a disappointing
12-17 record. Babineau plans on making
changes he hopes will positively alter last
year's losing fortunes.
Babineau said he plans on utilizing a
more varied game plan offensively yet still
will encourage a strong, aggressive
defense. "As far as the changes that are
planned for this season, I feel that you
have to tailor your style of play to suit
your players," said Babineau.
A major concern of Babineau's was the
youth of tne program, as seven of the 13
players this year are rookies. "I think that
even though our team is very young these
players are talented enough to ov.ercome
the lack of experience," said Babineau
.
But in Babineau's view, the program's
success will not be measured by wins and
losses, but in terms of improvement and
competitiveness. Discipline has to be in-
stilled within the team members not only
on the court but also in their personal
lives off the court, according to Babineau.
He said he expected Sue Blazejewski and
Jennifer Gray, the only seniors on the
squad, to provide leadership.

The members of the Marist
men's basketball team have at least
two adjustments to make this
season -
to new-found fame and
to a new assistant coaching staff.
The
new-found
fame is from last
year's NCAA
tournament
bid, and
the new assistant coaching is found
in the likes of Jeff Bower and Tim
Murray. Bower and Murray are
joined by three-year veteran
Associate Coach Bogdan Jovicic.
Jovicic, a self-proclaimed
"bridge between old and new,"
says an
important
aspect of the
coaching this year
is
in helping the
players adjust to the new program
.
"You cannot force a player to
change right into the new system,"
he said. "It is a gradual transition
we must help them with."
If
anyone knows about transi-
tion, Jovicic does. He
came
to
America in 1979 from Yugoslavia
to take on the assistant coaching
job at the University of Southern
California.
Prior to his experience at USC,
Jovicic was a successful player-
coach for Velizy in Paris, France,
and later took on an assistant
coaching job with Stade Francais
in Paris.
He said he believes the key to the
player's acclimation to the new
program is in moderation.
''Each year we
try
to go one step
further; this year I'd like to see us
make it through the first round of
the tournament," he said, "but it's
not good to put too much pressure
on the players."
Jovicic doesn't help the players
just with their on-the-court adjust-
ment -
he tries to help them ad-
just to college life in general.
"We want the players to be hap-
py. They might be happy because
they have a girlfriend, they might
be happy because of a good meal,
and they might be happy about
their school work."
The multilingual Jovicic said
part of his responsibility
is
not to
Bogdan
Jovicic
impose past coaching methods on
the team.
"In
front of the team, we
(the coaching staff) are united~"
Being
onited means he has to
work closely W\th his two new
coaching
proteges,
Murray and
Bower.
Bower, 2S, and Murray, 23. are
no strangers to the coaching game
either.
Prior to his full-time assistant
position at Marist, Bower served as
assistant coach to the Nittany Lions
of Penn State University.
He first worked with Head
Coach Dave Magarity in 1980 as a
undergraduate assistant at St.
Francis College, Pa.
Bower said working with the Red
Fox hoopsters
is
made easy
because
of the diligent work habits of his
younger understudies.
"They're a great bunch of guys
who've made a big commitment to
the
game,"
said
the
Holidaysburgh, Pa., native. "Last
year's tournament bid is a great
tribute to their hard work."
Bower said he believes there is
room for improvement on any
squad and the Red Foxes are no
different.
"The team is improving. They're
combimng their natura11lbilitywith
their
work
ethic, but we've still got
some things to work on."
Not one to preach about
his
own
accomplishments, Bower praised
the dunkers for their hard work
and dedication and pointed out a
few things they're working
-
on.
"We definitely need a better
defensive transition," Bower said,
"and we've picked up our zone of-
fense, but we still have a long way
to go."
The long road to perfection
Bower speaks of is cut miles shorter
with the help of fellow assistant
coach and perfectionist Tim
Murray.
Murray, who posesses a master's
_
degree in sports administration, has
been described by some as an ex-
cellent organizer and the type of
person who gets things done.
"I don't like it when the guys are
late for practice," said Murray
with
a
smile.
Murray was cautious about mak-
·
ing any predictions about the com-
ing season, echoing Jovicic's tlleory
of moderation.
"I'm not much for predictions,
we've got very good players and
we're going to take the season one
game at a time," said the East
Stroudsburg University alumnus.
Before coming to Marist, Mw-
ray was a graduate assistant at St.
Thomas University in Miami, Fla.
Murray admitted he experienced
a pleasant transition himself this
past week at the exhibition game
against Marathon Oil.
"I couldn't believe the fan sup-
port we drew. I'm used to Division
Two ball; we never got crowds like
that ~t St. Thomas."
All three assistant coaches were
united in their praise of the fans at
Marist.
Jovicic said: "The fans are
evervthing. I love to walk into a
gym
pack~ with
rans,
and we have
the
best
fans
at
Mmist."
Magarity's 'sixth man'
Editor's note:
This
week, Thurs-
day Morning Quarterback
is
turn-
ed over to
the
pen of Dave Magari-
ty, Marist head basketball coach.
Magarity, 35, became the seventh
head basketball coach in
Marist
history June 10, 1986, replacing
Matt Furjanic. Magarity's appoint-
ment made him the Red Foxes'
fourth head coach in four years.
by Dave Magarity
Since I assumed the position of
men's head basketball coach at
Marist in June, my impressions of
the local and college communities
have been nothing but positive
.
The excitement and anticipation
of the upcoming basketball season
have been steadily growing. As the
team and coaching staff enter into
the final week of pre-season prac-
thursday
morning
quarterback
tice,
I
feel it is important to finally
address the most important group
of supporters and fans we have: the
Marist College student body
.
Take the word of a former op-
posing coach who has sat on the
"wrong'' side of the bench in the
McCann Center during his years as
a Division One assistant and head
coach: the Marist fans are "the
sixth man!"
There is no question that expec-
tations are very high for this year's
team. No one knows it better than
our players and coaches
.
The one
thing I can promise to you is that
our team will play hard and play
together everytime it steps on the
floor to represent you and your
school.
We are faced with the toughest
non-league and overall schedule
Marist has ever had since becom-
ing an NCAA Division One
member in 1978. We'll need you
not only when things are going
great, but more importantly, to in-
spire us when we need it the most
-
when things are not going our
way. This is when we truly need
that "sixth man."
That's what great fans are all
about, and I believe that is why
Marist College has the best home
court advantage in the ECAC
Metro Conference.
Hoop managers keep ballbouncing and more
by Beth-Kathleen McCauley
Being a manager of the Marist
men's basketball team can be
a
thankless job, but the three
students who took the responsibili-
ty this season say they are more
than willing to do it.
·
James Hayes, Chris Gilbert and
Mike Walsh keep the team together
both on the road and at home by
caring for the players' uniforms,
equipment and making sure their
needs are met both on the cowt
and off.
"Managers, in my opinion, are
every bit as important as the
players," said Head Coach Dave
Magarity. "Without the managers,
the ship sinks."
Three manager positions needed
to be filled this semester. The
students, who were picked
out
of
eight candidates, were interviewed
at
least twice
before they were in-
troduced to the team on a trial basis
to test their reliability. Magarity is
satisfied with their performance so
far.
"We don't have a lot of money
to pay these guys," said Magarity,
"not for the commitment they
make. I don't even know if it's a
great trade for the hours they put
in."
James "Ting" Sel.by will return
to the team next semester as head
manager but was unable to par-
ticipate this semester for personal
reasons.
Aside from preparing the gym
for the practices and games, the
managers also keep inventory on
equipment and
·
supplies, pack for
the team and participate in
recruiting.
"I'm usually here an hour before
practice to set up the shot clocks
and the
players
practice
baas,"
said
Hayes, a sophomore from Bran-
tingham Lake,
N. Y.
"And when
practice is over, I make sure
'It's
a
job that often
goes
unnoticed.
So
many things
have
to
be
_
done,
but "it seems the
more
you give
to
them, the
more
they
can handle.'
everything is put back and the
uniforms and towels are all ac-
counted for."
During
practice,
Hayes and
Walsh
work the shot clocks, keep
the water bucket filled, keep the
floor free from moisture and run
various errands for the coaches and
trainer.
Gilbert will videotape practices
and games for coaching evaluation
of strengths and weaknesses.
Magarity said he hopes to set up
walkie-talkie communication with
Gilbert during games
so
that he
can
splice together replays to show the
team at halftime.
The students say their respon-
sibilities have not seriously affected
their social or academic respon-
sibilities, but added that the season
hasn't officially started yet.
"The basketball team is part of
my
,
social life," said Gilbert, a
junior from Coshecton, N.Y. "The
study time is what I'm worried
about."
"My friends are really interested
in what I do," said Hares. "Right
now I'm sacrificing my social life
for my school work."
The managers do get many of
the same "extras'' that the players
receive such as complimentary
sneakers, team meals in the
cafeteria and accommodations
while traveling to games. Gilbert
adds excitement to his list of advan-
tages:
''I
get to participate in a
Division One team that is growing.
It's a great experience."
The managers receive apprecia-
tion from the coach as well as the
players.
"They listen to us and are
reasonable," said Miro Pecarski, a
sophomore forward. "They do
their job and we do ows."
Magarity added: "It's a job that
often goes unnoticed. So many
things have to
be
done, but it seems
the more you give to them, the
more they can handle."

Two local coaches enter
women's basketball scene
by Michael
McGarry
There are a lot of fresh faces on
the Marist College women's
basketball team this year. Not on-
ly
is
there a new head coach and
seven new players but also two new
assistant co:iclies.
Tom Sutherland, a teacher at
Our Lady of Lourdes High School
and former girls junior varsity
coach there, and Laurie Quilty,
part-time worker at All-Sport and
former
assistant coach at
Morehead State University in Min-
nesota, are beginning their first
year under what appear to be less
than ideal conditions.
But neither Sutherland nor Quil-
ty say they think the sudden
'·
resignation of Head Coach Pat
Torza and the hiring five weeks
later
-
of Ken Babineau, formerly an
assistant,
will
have a great effect on
the team.
"The fact the kids stayed with
the
program through the five weeks
of
indecision
is a tribute to them,''
said Sutherland.
Both assistant coaches see the
team's togetherness and hustle as
its strengths. "We should
be
scrap-
py, exciting and all over the floor,"
said Sutherland.
One weakness is the team's inex-
perience, according to Quilty. "It's
a building year, and you have to
rebuild from A to Z," said Quilty.
Sutherland and Quilty both see
themselves as a second set of eyes

night, in

for $1.00
for Babineau. The coaches
will
be
looking to see if players are box-
ing out and picking up defensively
at the correct points. "Six eyes is
a lot better than two," said Quilty.
The assistants organize the first
20 minutes of practice, which in
-
cludes wannup
drills
and stretching
exercises, according to Quilty
.
"We
also work with players on in-
dividual fundamental skills," said
Sutherland.
Senior co-captain Jennifer Gray
from Dublin, Ireland, points out
assistant coaches can be a bridge
between the players and the head
coach. "You can go to the assistant
coaches for answers to a problem
if the head coach is busy," said
Gray.

Marist
through eyes of .foreign students
by Elizabeth Geary
Some freshmen think they have
it tough when it comes to making
friends at Marist. Didier Oliver had
it tougher - he wasn't used to ap-
ple pies and Chevorolets. Oliver is
a native of France.
Oliver, a 21-year-old graduate
student, is one of 32 foreign
students at Marist this year. These
students are from such countries as
Venezuela, Ecuador, Bangladesh,
Tanzania, and The Netherlands.
Oliver solved his problem by get-
ting a job at the circulation desk in
the library. He said he met a lot of
people because everyone had to
pass him on their way in and out.
Foreign students are faced with
difficulty understanding the norms
of American culture. "People
would say, 'What's up?' to me and
I would go into a big long story and
they'd be walking away," said
Oliver, a computer science major.
Harold Muvuti, a 20-year-old
freshman from Zimbabwe, had dif-
ficulty with the word 'awesome.'
"Back home, we would say stuff
like, 'It's festive,"' said Muvuti.
Oliver also faced a problem
when it came to greeting people.
"In my country, when you say
hello to people, you shake their
hand," said Oliver. "So I went
nuts trying to shake everyone's
hand. They must have thought I
was crazy." Oliver said.
Most students found the
American educational system very
flexible. In most foreign countries
the school plans one's course
schedule. "They told me here I
could take any class, any time,"
said Oliver. "I thought that was
great."
Mohammod Chouldhry, a com-
puter science major from Pakistan,
said he feels some American
teachers cannot adjust to the stu-
dent's needs. "They think, this is
my course and this is what I'm go-
ing to teach. You can learn it=
they may not go any further than
that," he said.
Oliver said he likes the relaxed
manner of some of his professors
at Marist. He played tennis with his
statistics teacher and went to Skin-
ners with some of hfs other
teachers.
Some foreign students said
Marist students were friendly but
not as well informed about foreign
cultures. "When I go to the

,,..
movies, one out of two would be
an American or British movie,"
said Muvuti. "Over here, you don't
watch Zimbabwian films."
Most foreign students said they
were not accustomed to the "par-
ty scene" when th,y first came to
Marist. "Over here, you get a keg,
you play quarters and the main ob-
jective is to get the beer down your
throat," said Muvuti.
Oliver said he too was surprised
by the attitude about drinking he
found here. "I was amazed by how
much people love to get drunk," he
said. "But once they're drunk, they
lie down and get sick."
Most students said they do not
like American food. "It's very pro-
cessed,'' said Muvuti. "I'm used to
eating fresh meat from the butcher
and here it's all frozen."
Chouldhry said he doesn't think
Americans have learned how to
cook yet. "They eat too many
things raw," he said. "At home,
we take much more time to prepare
and cook things
_
."
Most foreign students also had
to adjust to differences in the
weather when they came to the
United States.
"It
was hard on me
last year and people told me I was
lucky because it wasn't a bad
winter," Oliver said.
"I
can't wait
to see a bad winter."
Oliver is looking forward to
graduation in May. "In France,
you get your diploma and they kick
you out," said Oliver. "Here, you
get a big party and a big black
dress."
Computers at Marist East
facilitate students, staff
by Ken Hommel
Picture the bouncing of fingers
on a keyboard, a printer churning
out reams of paper and a perplex-
ed student blankly staring at a
monitor.
It may sound like Donnelly
HaJJ's computer facility, but Marist
East now has its own micro-
computer center for academic and
non-credit training.
The center became a reality in
March
1985
when
IBM-
Poughkeepsie funded a wing of
Marist East, which now includes
the Jab in room
303,
to train
employees. When IBM's contract
was up the company decided to
move its operations to its Kenyon
House facility.
That's when the School of Adult
Education and Marist's computer
science program stepped in. Mar-
sha Rozales, Adult Education's
director in charge of business and
industry training contracts, was in-
strumental in establishing the
center for Marist. Rozales and
Bar-
bara Sadowski, a professor of com-
puter science and math, revitaliz-
ed the center last September.
Sadowski organizes the use of
•
the Marist East facility for in,.
dividual students and classes, while
Rozales uses the center for business
and industry groups.
The center consists of IBM per-
sonal computers, which were pur-
chased through IBM funding. One
of the micro-computer center's
uses~ according to instructor Dave
Garcia, is to teach residence direc-
tors how to use the PC's. Garcia
is a senior pursuing a degree in
computer science.
Because of the expansion of the
academic and non-credit programs,
Garcia finds the center a necessity.
Cramming with
caffeine: A 'high'
with high price
Controversy is in past
for Marist
ROTC
unit
by Christine Ehrhard
As
the final days, hours and seconds of the desperate avoidance
dwindle down to the dreaded moment, college students across the
country this fall will once again be forced to submit to reality and
confront the ultimate test -
the final exam.
For many, this means a few grueling hours of cramming - aid-
ed by large doses of one of America's most popular mind-altering
drugs -
caffeine.
During exam
weeks,
large numbers of college students tum to
products like .. No-Doz,'' .. Vivarin," Coffee, Tea, cola and
chocolate - products that supply the caffeine that will aJJow them
to allay drowsiness and mental fatigue.
But there's more to caffeine than many people realize.
Caffeine is a legal and culturally accepted form of "speed.'' Con-
sidered a "mind-altering" drug because it stimulates all portions
of the cerebral cortex, it acts on blood vessels in the head and wake--
sleep and thought-association areas of the brain.
Therapeutically, caffeine is used to prevent and relieve
headaches, to stimulate the central nervous system and to serve
as a diuretic. It is also of value in treating some cases of asthma.
. But many of caffeine's uses are far from therapeutic. By increas-
mg blood pressure and pulse rate, it can cause such side effects
as nervousness, insomnia, headaches, irritability lightheadedness
impaired thinking, nausea, heartburn, indigestio'n, stomach irrita:
tion and increased urine output. It can also lead to to the develop-
ment of an ulcer in the stomach or the duodenum.
Moderate overdose can lead to heart palpitation, depression,
tremor, sweating, diarrhea seeing spots before the eyes, while large
overdose can cause excitement, haJlucination, rapid breathing
fever, delirium and convulsion.
'
Besides popular beverages, many non-prescription drugs con-
tain caffeine.
It
is used in aspirin to relieve headaches and in diet
pills to raise the body metabolism -
the speed at which the body
bums calories.
Some products are even marketed solely as sleep-prohibiting
stimulants: "No-Doz,'' "Vivarin," and "Efed II" are among the
many caffeine tablets that can be purchased "over the counter"
(without a prescription). "No-Doz" tablets contain 100 milligrams
of caffeine each; "Vivarin,'' 200 milligrams; "Efed II,'' 125
milligrams.
The fact that caffeine can be purchased without a prescription
does not mean it harmless. While it may temporarily mask the pro-
blem of exhaustion, it may also have a detrimental effect on your
health.

No, it's not Bill Murray portray-
ing private John Winger in the
movie "Stripes." Nor is it Richard
Gere running through his military
base chanting this infamous phrase
in "Officer and a Gentleman." But
it could be members of the ROTC
program at Marist.
"A Jot of students have the
wrong idea about ROTC,'' said
Marist student Angelique Hinton,
a .junior ROTC officer from
Bronx, N.Y. "I think that through
seeing different movies everyone
thinks we are trying to be like Ram-
bos and Rambettes."
The ROTC program, which
came to Marist in 1982 amid con-
troversy, is currently run by Cap-
tain Joseph Colombo.
''The teachers were very protec-
tive of the students and they didn't
want them driving tanks on cam-
pus,'' said Colombo, who came to
Marist this fall. "Although, there
were people who looked at the
ROTC program with a good at-
titude because it could help
students financially.''
Proponents argued that the
military needed civilian officers
with a background in liberal arts,
and not just a military education.
Opponents felt an ROTC program
was impossible for Marist because
the school lacked the classroom
space. However, the program was
approved on Nov. 6, 1982, by the
board of trustees in a 21-1 vote.
Colombo, who succeeded Cap-
tain Lance Lufman after he left the
ROTC program at Marist to pur-
sue his master's degree, has not

'
program at Marist, but has witness-
ed a change in attitude among
students.
"The Iranian hostage crisis in
I 979 prompted a lot of nationalism
in America,'' said Colombo,
originally from Mount Vernon,
N.Y.
"Also,
the fact that President
Reagan
is so patriotic has made
Americans have a better attitude
'I think through
seeing different
.
movies, everyone
thinks we are try-
ing to be like
Rambos and Ram-
bettes.'
about the military."
Although the students in the pro-
gram seem to take their involve-
ment in the ROTC seriously, some
Marist students are dubious.
"I think it's psuedo-ROTC,"
said Jean Zazzero, a senior
business major from Middletown,
N. Y. "Maybe at other schools it's
different, but I can't seem to take
them seriously here."
Another Marist student, Jennifer
Jao, a senior communication arts
major from Bayshore, N.Y.,
agreed.
"In the 1950s and early 1960s,
people volunteered for the
military," said Jao. "Now with the
aftermath from the Vietnam ex-
perience, you have to ask yourself
why anyone would want to get in-
volved with ROTC or any military
force?"
Currently, there are 35 students
involved in the ROTC program at
Marist. Students from Marist Col-
lege, Vassar College, Mount Saint
Mary College and SUNY New
Paltz come to Marist every Friday
to take their required
class
from 2-5
p.m.
"During the first two years,
freshmen and sophomores are
taught facts about the military in
a lecture class," explains Captain
Colombo. "The juniors learn tac-
tics on how to survive in the woods
and seniors are taught the code of
military justice -
the rules and
laws of the military. We try to por-
tray leadership development and
not a Rambo outlook."
There are 16 females in the pro-
gram who incur the same classes
and training as the males. The
training includes running three and
a quarter miles every Friday, atten-
ding a summer training camp
where the student learns to s~rvive
in the woods for three days and go-
ing through a gas-filled chamber.
"I don't really find the training
hard," said Angelique Hinton.
"They
wouldn't ask you to go out
there and do something you
couldn't do. It's not as strict as the
real army."
Students are not required to sign
a contract in which they will be
obligated to serve in the army for
eight years after graduation until
their junior year of college.
"I plan on doing four years of
active duty and four years in the
reserve when l graduate," said
Kevin Kaley, a senior business ad-
ministration
major
from
Poughkeepsie, N.Y.

enough and honest enough not to
rely on sweeping generalities and to
sign my name to my views, unlike
a freshman female who "asked not
to be identified."
Do I buck the norms? Am I a
radical trend setter? I must be, I

To the Editor:
A friend brought to my attention
your lead article about
Dr.
Andrew
Kayiira. I too am distressed about
his plight and hope that people will
continue to put pressure on the
government of Uganda. What sur-
prised me was the curious descrip-
tion of President Yoweri Museveni
as a 'known socialist' as though
this were something appalling.
to security in Saudi Arabia, where
he still lives. Unfortunately, Tan-
zania mistakenly tried to force the
Ugandans to accept Obote again,
which resulted in the last few years
of civil war.
y
OU
CAN take it with you
The government of Milton
Obote, of which Dr. Kayiira was a
member, was a socialist one; indeed
one of the major reasons for its
overthrow by Idi Amin was
because the public did not like its
socialist policies. When Idi Amin
first came to power he was im-
mensely popular in part because he
promised to reverse these policies.
When )di Amin's regime became a
byword for tyranny, Tanzania
stepped in with its army to rescue
the Ugandan people. Idi Amin fled
·
Yoweri Museveni would seem to
be the best hope that Uganda has
had in years for resolving its terri-
ble problems. It used to be one of
the most prosperous countries in
Africa.
Dr.
Kayiira's association with
Milton Obote must inevitably have
made him suspect to the present
regime. I sincerely hope that he
will
be released, but we should at least
get the record straight and not
blame his arrest on the fact that the
present president is a 'known
socialist.'

Did you ever have one of those
lives? Not only is nothing going
right, but it's going more complete-
ly wrong than you ever imagined
possible. Wait, you think. Since
everything is so messed up here,
why not get away for a few days?

l'bings are going wrong becaus~
this is Marist, but if you get away
your luck is bound to change,
right?

Wrong.
The
"Marist
touch" is a bit like
a reverse Midas touch, turning
things from gold to stainless steel
in seconds. Once you've been ex-
posed to "the touch;'' getting rid
of it is only slightly less difficult
than establishing world peace, or
having an intelligent conversation
on Superbowl Sunday. You may
get off campus and away from
-classes,
but you can't shake Marist,
as I was recently m~e aware, when
I tried to go "over the wall.''

without fear of having its federal

The idea seemed simple enough
at first. Six editors would go to
Washington D.C. for a journalism
conference. You get on a plane, fly
down, go to the conference, take
in a few sights and fly home. How
tough could it be? It wasn't like the
conference was at Marist, or
anything dangerous like that.

If we'd been paying attention,
we might have smelled the first
whiff of trouble when the flight at-
tendant told us that our carry-on
luggage would prevent our escape
"in the event of an emergency,"
leaving us to envision headlines
like, "Death by duffel bag.'' and
"Gone with the Samsonite." Since
the aforementioned emergency
never occurred, we foolishly
dismissed the attendant as crash-
happy, rather than recognize him
as someone who's heard of our fair
school and its luck.

middle of a sea of highways, and
Domino's had never heard of the
place. I ask you, is that what you
call civilization?
Since there wasn't much we
could do about accommodations,
and since we were hearty Marist
students used to dealing with less
than perfect situations, we decid-
ed to ignore the whole thing and get
on with the serious business of be-
ing tourists. To do that though, we
first had to find our new friend,
Jerry, who drove the hotel shuttle.
Not only had Jerry taken us to the
hotel from the terminal with great
speed, but he even had given our
luggage a private tour of the entire
airport before making it share the
van with us.
Sightseeing in Washington is an
interesting proposition, since you
have to know where everything is
before you can find it on a map,
or even find the map itself. Actual-
ly, in that sense, it's not so different
from the Marist campus. At any
rate, we managed to find almost
everything except the Jefferson
Memorial, which had obviously
gone south for the winter. We even
found the Dept. of Justice, but
there was no answer at the door
when we knocked. I guess no one
was home.
We were fairly safe from the
"Marist touch" while sightseeing,
and even at the conference the
worst thing that happened was a
series of animal imitations by the
keynote speaker. After all, even
Dan Rather has to let go
sometimes. Actually, we really
didn't feel "the touch" until we
tried to leave Washington, but then
it felt more like brass knuckles.
Due to circumstances beyond
our control (called Sunday drivers),
not all of us made it back to the
air-
,__
port in time to catch the plane. We
were left in the terminal waving the
plane , and our sanity, good-bye.
We rallied quickly though, and
made arrangements to catch
another flight, unfortunately to
Newark. Not that we had anything
against New Jersey, mind you, but
we were
kind of
hoping to get to
the right state at least. Considering
the plane we flew in though, I sup-
pose we were lucky to get that far.
Picture a red and black DC-9
with what appears to be the Rus-
sian alphabet on the side, a 22-year:
old pilot and flight attendants who
do wind-sprints in the aisles. Add
to that a one-piece carry-on luggage
rule (so no one would have too
much I.D. on them), a sputtering
engine and skid-marks on the run-
way. To say this plane was the
Marist of the skies would be too
kind.
We made it however, only to be
stranded in Newark with no plastic
money to protect us, only that sil-
ly real stuff. It took two bus rides,
one cab ride and one traffic
jam
(in
the Lincoln Tunnel, no less) before
we were safely enveloped in the
"bubble" once again.
So the next time you get an urge
to shake the dust (mud, actually)
of Marist off your feet and travel,
remember -
there is no escape
from the "Marist touch.''

Tim e to see students for what they are
by Ken Foye
Boy, it seems like everybody has
a little something to say about
Marist students lately.
I've heard
all
kinds of interesting
adjectives. Homogeneous. Un-
motivated. Boring. Oh my.
I
must admit that
I
wasn't at the
debate.
I
wanted to go, but
I
woke
up sick that morning and didn't
make it.
I
didn't feel so well on that
particular morning. rm sorry.
I
was too "uninspired" I guess.
After
all
I've read about the
debate, though,
I
now wish more
than ever that
I
was there. I wish
I was there to hear Mercinth Brown
call my major field of study easy.
I wish I could have heard her call
her colleagues lazy and mediocre.
Wow, that's pretty scary.
So,
90
percent of us are lazy,
huh? Really? Wow, that in-
disputable statistic has me doing
some really deep soul-searching. I
better come up with some way of
improving my pathetic 3.2 grade
point average.
I should also
call
a meeting of
all
the lazy people with whom I've
become involved in the Dr. Kayiira
case. And I'd better warn my
fraternity brothers about laziness
next time we sponsor a blood drive.
Wow -
90
percent!!! Makes me
wonder why the whole college
doesn't just go under.
Someone better sit down and
talk to that lazy kid named Joe
Concra and all of his Progressive
Coalition buddies. Better tell
Charles Fleming and the rest of the
Black Student Union to toe the
line, too. Trying to create more
awareness about South African
apartheid is the laziest damn thing
I've ever heard of.
A lot of us are wallowing in self-
guilt right now, thanks to the words
of Professor Albert Stridsberg. Our
Stridsberg, etc., are guilty of pay-
ing too much atteJltion to
appearances.
They won't look past the blank
faces of students, they won't hear
past the music we play, and they
certainly won't judge us by
anything except our plans for the
weekend. They have a definition of
our generation that seems much
too limited.

I'm wrong, but it seems

should give the rest of the faculty
the benefit of the doubt - it being
a snowy day and it being right in

give us (not even SOME of us) the
benefit of the doubt concerning the
poor attendance at the debate. And
neither d~d you, Mercinth. Shame
on you. Both of you.
Cynics and believers:
Somebody named Gore Vidal
tells us that we "have no feelings
for others." Jeez, Vidal, you're
so
right. As soon as our Campus
Ministry group is finished with its
Advent project of helping the
homeless of Dutchess County,
we're all going to sit around a fire
and try to help each other get over

Mr. Stridsberg, if you only took
the time to look around this cam-
pus for some of the good things
students are doing, you wouldn't
have looked at us quite as narrow-
mindedly
as you did. Get out of
your classroom, and quit looking
at the students sitting there doing
"dead-meat" time. Get out of your
office, and put away your Crossley
Youth Barometer and your Gore
Vidal tidbits.
I
think you have to
do a little more research on
us
than
THAT.
Time to give thanks
our selfishness.
I
wonder if Nikolai Baturin
would see Marist students
as selfish
or lazy. 30 appeal cards are being
sent to the Soviet ambassador on

tist imprisoned since

Thanksgiving. Most people think
of turkey, and a big meal, and peo-
ple getting together and having a
good time. For a lot of people, it's
just another day. For some people,
it's a special day.
Since I came to college I've come
to see how other people celebrate
holidays. Thanksgiving never was
one of my favorite holidays, but
I've come to see both the cynics
and the believers for what they are
and what they believe in.
The believers are those who
see
the good, and make the most of it.
They are the trusting ones.
The cynics are those who believe
that there is very little good, or
none at all. They look upon the
believers as being crazy, when they
themselves are the blind. They can
change when they see the light of
the good.
I had a friend who was a cynic
and became a believer. Jamie (a
psuedonym) was one of those peo-
ple who delighted in the negative.
For him it was just a defense
mechanism
to
protect his
vulnerability. At an early age he
had closed up into himself, like a
turtle retreats into his shell.
If
nothing could get in, then nothing
could hurt him.
His world protected him, but it
was not a perfect place.
There was little laughter and joy,
and he didn't know the joy of
opening up to someone and becom-
ing close. He didn't even know
what it was that he was missing.
High school had begun to draw
Jamie out of his shell, but never
completely, and when the problems
became too much for him, he just
drew back into himself.
Jamie was never really close to
his
family, and holidays were often
just exercises in patience and en-
durance, waiting until it was all
over, and he could go back to be-
ing the lonely inhabitant of his lit-
tle world. Protected from the sor-
row, and the joy of the world.
In college, Jamie was by himself,
and the little world that he had liv-
ed in for most of his life was begin-
ning to crumble around him. It had
worked when he was living at
home, and in high school, but it
didn't when he was away at college,
and living among a bunch of
strangers.
Slowly, after his roommates had
made a lot friends, Jamie began to
make friends. They were just a few
at first, but gradually, he opened
himself up and found out that he
was a person that he had never even
knew existed before.
Jamie for the first time really
learned about being thankful, and
having things to give thinks for.
Life meant more than it had when
he was in his little world. For in
there, there was no real joy, only
sorrow disguised as joy.
I learned something from
Jamie's experience: if you feel that
you have nothing to give thanks
for, than you're not really living
your life as.you should. I'm not in
any position to preach to you that
you're not living your life the way
that you should, but if you think
that you have nothing, and you are
nothing, there's something wrong.
I just want to pass on one thing
that Jamie told me a long time ago,
and I've kept
as
a mantra: "God
created only believers, Man created
the cynic."

off, none of these students are get-

that people like Mercinth Brown
don't look past the confused-
looking stares

they scan the

L
on g-a waited Chance reopening scheduled
by
Eric Turpin
Something exciting
is
going to
l)appen in Poughkeepsie soon.
The area's hottest club, The
Chance, is finally reopening after
an almost three-year absence from
the music scene, due to a fire in the
Summer of 1984.
In earlier times, big name acts
would appear at The Chance for all
the people in the area to come see
and hear. The Chance specialized
in breaking new acts into the music
scene, such as Cyndi Lau per,
Twisted Sister, Modern English
and Grandmaster Flash.
The fire, which was reported as
arson, forced The Chance to close
its doors, but now it has returned
with an exciting opening lineup.
Linda Voshardt, assistant to the
owner, said "We'll continue to
bring all national acts to The
Chanci:." Voshardt added that
whenever possible, The Chance will
try to feature local talent as open•
ing acts.
She said this time around, The
Chance will not keep the seven-day-
a-week schedule, as it previously
practiced.
Voshardt said,"We want to use
The Chance more as a theater, and
not a concert hall." As a result,
The Chance will only be open for
concerts on the weekends, leaving
the rest of the
week
to hold other
types of events, according to
Voshardt.

record, forty song live album from
America's greatest rocker. For
Bruce fanatics, it is three hours and
20 minutes of ecstasy with 40 of his
best songs. For newcomers that on-
ly know "Born in the
U.S.A.," it
is a good introduction to, and over-
view of, the Boss' career. And, for
you Bruce-haters, it is your chance
to finally buy a Bruce album and
join the ranks of the elite-even the
most devout anti-Springsteen folks
I know grudgingly admit he puts on
a great live show.
While almost everything on all
ten sides of the LP
is
awesome, the
best sides are the first three.
Recorded mostly at the Los
Angeles Roxy in 1978, these sides
show what a great bar band the E-
Streeters were early in their careers.
''Spirit in the Night" and "Sandy"
rock with a fever that is only hinted
at in their understated studio ver-
sions. "Adam Raised a Cain,"
easily Bruce's heaviest song, ab-
solutely wails, with a guitar solo
that borders on Heavy Metal. Best
of all is "Raise Your Hands," a
remake of a '60s shouter that I'm
sure your favorite cover band will
be playing next time you are out.
By no means, though are these
songs the albums' only highlights.
The stark version of "Thunder
Road,'' with just vocals, piano and
harmonica, adds a sense of
desperation to the song, which in
its studio version is a celebration of
music as a means of escape. "No
Surrender," a song Bruce wrote
about Steve Van Zandt's departure
from the band, is also offered in an
acoustic version. The acoustic
guitar arrangement makes the song
even sadder than its studio counter-
part, until the last verse, when
Bruce changes the lyrics for a hap-
py ending. The crowd singalong in
the first verse of "Hungry Heart"
captures the joy that is prevalent at
Bruce's concerts. "This Land is
Your Land," which I thought was
one of the highlights of the I ~85
shows, is really beautiful here. I
think its inclusion shows Springs-
teen's realization that more than
thirty years ago, Woody Guthrie
said what Bruce's "Born in the
U.S.A." tried to.

Black Student Meeting
'Inspiring,' Students Say
Rev. Jesse Jackson, speaking at
the Black Student Unity meeting at
Penn recently, likened the meeting
to the 1960 founding of the Student
Nonviolent Coordinating Commit-
tee, which helped propel the civil
rights movement.
Aurora U. student Cicely Kill-
ingsworth said the 500-student
meeting ''let us know we are not
alone."
But Penn Black Student League
President Conrad Tillard com-
plained that Penn's refusal to let
security officials search students at
the door caused Muslim leader
Louis Farrakhan to cancel his
appearance.
The refusal was "a virulently,
vehemently racist move," he said .
.
Students More 'ConservatJve'
About Premarital Sex, Drugs
Politics
The Simmons Market Research
Bureau poll also found American
collegians spend a total of $20
billion for textbooks, and another
$20 billion a year for "items not
directly related to school"
like
movies, clothes and fuel.
Marathon Oil 'Divests'
From U. Wyoming
The firm, owned by USX, said
it would no longer award grants
and scholarships to students at
r
schools that, in tum, couldn't hold
USX stock because
it
has opera-
tions in South Africa.
The Wyoming grant, worth
$50,000, was the first to be
cancelled.
Duquesne U. Official Resigns
Over Lecturer's Visit
Rev. Michael Drohan quit in
protest of a campus lecture by
Robert Duemling. who oversees
"non-lethal" aid to Nicaraguan
contras for the State Dept.
"I
took exception to this man
who is sponsoring murder in
Nicaragua being invited to a Chris-
tian
institution,"
Drohan
explained.
Three
Cal
State Editors Defy
Ban of Political Endorsements
Papers at Humboldt State, Long
Beach State and Fullerton all
published endorsements recently,
despite university regulations -
upheld by a coun in September -
prohibiting the state-funded
papers
from participating in partisan state
politics.
Humboldt State has demoted
two editors in the last two years for
taking similar stands, but paper ad-
visor Howard Seemann says
there'll probably be no punishment
this time.

I
saw this other commercial, full
of semi pornographic imagery,
about a roach motel.
It
had all the
texture of the movies you watch in
a high school health class, but with
graphic illustration of hormonal
imbalances, foreplay and insect
sexual frustration.
And then there are those ads that
celebrate good old-fashioned
American ingenuity. I watched a
grown woman from Arkansas
display an entire wardrobe she had
crocheted out of potatoes with this
Space Age kitchen implement
.
Peter Lorre and his mutant lab
assistants started to look like old
friends
as
the night wore on, and
then Robert Young broke into
a
,
domestic squabble. Proffering a
decaffeinated coffee, he advised
our young innocuous husband to
"put the meat cleaver down and
step away from the kids."
The programmers were getting
their kicks by playing commercials
back to back or within a few
seconds of each other -
while I
thought I was having small fits of
deja vu.
I
thought the horizontal hold on
my mental display screen was
dysfunctional when
I
saw a bunch
of young men drinking be~r and
reminiscing about dropping a piano
off an apartment building, but it
was just an ongoing process of hav-
ing panic programmed out of my
response pattern.
" ... and then a man comes on my
TV telling me how white my shirts
can be. But he can't be a man
'cause he doesn't smoke the same
cigarettes as me.' I can't get no.
No. No. No. No."

his life on different military bases
because his father was a career of-
ficer in the army, agrees that some
people look down upon the ROTC
program at Marist.
"I think a lot of people are very
ignorant to ROTC because the
movies put it out of perspective,''
said Kaley. "ROTC is no com-
parison to the movies."
Students are not forced to join
the program, but the army does do
its most intense recruiting from
December to February. Most
students join ROTC because they
want to, said ~aley.
"I can understand that people
don't want anything to do with
ROTC," said Kaley. "But at least
they can respect it."

government, according to Cooper.
Each room is lavishly decorated
with beautiful tapistries and ornate
wood carvings. The decor is a mix-
ture of Italian and French from the
renaissance period with some Rus-
sian and Greek pieces.
The mansion is the smallest of
the Vanderbilt mansions, the
largest being the Biltmore, owned
by Frederick's youngest brother
George
Washington Vanderbilt,
and is the only one operated by the
National Park Service.
"It was a party house," Cooper
said. "They only used it in the
spring and fall. In fact, Franklin
Roosevelt's daughter, Anna, had
her coming out pany here."
Tours run every half-hour on

during the winter from 9:30 a.m.

1986----------------:===================.
Keeping her subjects in focus
by
Carol FaJcinelli
She's been all over the world and
insists that the most interesting
places are the most simple
.
Yva Momatiuk, a free lance.
photographer
for
National
Geographic magazine, teaches two
photography classes at Marist
stressing the basic and simple to her
students.
"In our daily endeavors, we are
unfocused because we're so rush-
ed," she says. "We're too ac-
customed to zoom through
everything we do without taking
time to see the small; fundamental
things."
Now living in Hurley, N.Y.
,
Momatiuk is originally from War-
saw, Poland. She came to the
United States 20 years ago out of
a general curiosity to spend time
abroad and see the world.
Momatiuk says her job as a free
lance photographer, which has
helped her achieve her goal to see
the world,
has also taught her that
the photographer must show sim-
ple courtesy to the people they
photograph.
"Being kind and polite should be
human nature," says Momatiuk.
"Today, journalists -
writers as
well as photographers -
are their
own worst enemies. They use peo-
ple and then leave them behind
with
harsh feelings. That's not
right."
Momatiuk remembers one exam-
ple of how journalists abused peo-
ple in a westernized section of New
Zealand
.
"In the past, journalists
photographed these people in em-
barassing situations. The people
were hurt, and now it's very dif-
ficult to gain their trust, which
makes it that much more difficult
to photograph them."
From this example, Momatiuk
has learned to live her profession,
and she shares this experience with
her students
.
"If
you're convinced what
you're doing is morally right and
defensable, you should go through
with it," she tells students who
wonder when picture-taking may
be inappropriate.
The decisions a photographer
must make as to what or when to
photograph should be simple if
Momatiuk's advice is followed.
"Any place you concentrate on
is interesting," says Momatiuk.
She instructs her
.
studeqts how to
take pictures, but more important
is the advice she gives'lhem.
Of all the advice she gives her
students, the most important is the
most simple.
"We have to learn to be humans
first and photographet~ second."

tand what is going on and answers
other questions that the student
may come up with while doing the
homework.
There are many benefits to using
t
he academic review session instead
of a private tutor. First the review
sessions are FREE. Also, they are
prearranged for yon. You do not
have to try and contact the tutor
and set up a time. That is done for
you
.
Also at this point in the year
the tutors are already involved in
their own classes and the people
that they've been tutoring all year
long.
It is difficult for them to take
on another student.

It

The old saying,
"If
at first you
don't succeed, try, try again,"
defines Dr. Larry Menapace.
Menapace has been a full-time
faculty member at Marist since
1968. An assistant coach of the
men's basketball team from
1971-72 and from 1979-83, and
volunteer assistant coach in 1985,
Menapace has watched the team go
from a Division Three team to its
present Division One status.

Dr. Menapace, a professor of
chemistry at Marist, applied for a
position as head coach of the
Marist men's basketball team
several
times
all to no avail.
Now he has a basketball team of
his own.
Menapace
will
begin
coaching
November 17 at Rhinecliff Union
Free School District in Rhinecliff,
New York, a residential treatment
facility for problem adolescents.
The team, the schoo1's first varsi-
ty boy's basketball squad, consists
of 12 players ranging in age from
IS to
18.
"Basketball has been a number
one priority in my life," said
Menapace.
Coaching basketball for more
than 30 years, Menapace began his
coaching career at the age of IS,
with a church league team. Since
·
then, he has coached college, high
school and club basketball, but this
is his first experience working with
problem adolescents.
"The task of taking the players
and turning them into a team is
monumental," said Menapace. He
explained that many of the players
"We used to practice in Marian
Hall (the original site of the Marist
gym).
Because it was so small, we
used to call it the cardboard col-
iseum," said Menapace.
He explained how the basketball
team would travel in station
wagons and pack lunches
.
"Now
we travel in planes," said
Menapace.
·
Menapace has applied for the
head coach position at Marist on
three separate occasions without
success. "I knew all three times
that I was a long shot," said
Menapace. "I have been coaching
for more years than some coaches
have been alive."
He will continue to teach
'
chemistry at Marist, but will no
longer
be
connected with th~
basketball program.
"When it became obvious that I
would not
be
given the opportuni-
to coach," said Menapace.
Menapace said there are disad-
vantages to coaching at Rhinecliff.
"The boys are handicapped by
their lack of competitive ex-
perience,•• explained Menapace.
Winning more games than he
loses and having a competitive year
are Menapace's go~s for the
season.
"Right now,
being a successful
coach is the most important priori-
ty in my life," said Menapace.

Skaters fall
to 1-5 mark
by Kee
·
Foye
With a 1-5 overall record, and a
1-3 Metro Conference mark, the
Marist hockey team will be look-
ing to avoid thin ice this weekend.
The Red Foxes will travel to For-
dham University Saturday and to
County College of Morris in New
Jersey on Sunday.
The Marist icemen suffered two
conference losses over the weekend
as their early-season skid con-
tinued. The Foxes' home opener on
Friday afternoon against Siena
College was spoiled when the
visiting Indians triumphed, 13-6.
The Red Foxes then dropped a
tough 5-4 decision to Metro Con-
ference powerhouse Southern Con-
necticut University on Sunday.
Despite a sizable home crowd at
the Mid-Hudson Civic Center on
Friday, it was a bad day for Marist
from start to finish. The Red Foxes
didn't get a shot
·
on goal through
the first eight minutes, as Siena
coasted to a 5-0 first-period lead.
Siena continued building its lead,
and after two periods tlie score was
11-4
·,
clinching the game for the
Indians.
The scoring of junior Bill Drolet
(two
goals, two assists)
-and
sophomore Jon Urban's first col-
legiate goal were the only highlights.
for Marist.
-
If
Friday's game
was
Marist's
worst to date, the loss to Southern
Connecticut might have been the
Red Foxes' best showing yet. The
Foxes, who brought only 13 skaters
to the game, got two early goals
from freshman
Mike
Dunn and
another from Jon Reinhart.
Southern led 5-3 in the game's
final minute, when sophomore
Tom Nesbitt scored with 14
seconds left to pull Marist within
one goal. The Foxes, who had pull-
ed junior goalie Greg Whitehead
(45 saves) for a sixth attacker just
before Nesbitt's lamplighter, fell
short despite a furious assault.
Marist's next home game, on
Wednesday, Dec. 3, will be a
rematch against Southern Connec-
ticut University.

Red Foxes drop exhibition
to quick Marathon Oil
by Paul Kelly
Blowout. Thrashing.
These and other similar words
were uttered by the 1,778 fans who
filed out of Mccann Center Nov.
11 after watching Marathon Oil
soundly defeat Marist
96-
72.
However, Marist Head Coach
Dave Magarity used different
words to describe the result of the
exhibition contest. "It was a toqgh
game, but a good one beca\lse the
kids are trying to learn," said
Magarity.
The Red Foxes, who open
regular-season play Friday, Nov.
28; in the opening round of the Joe
Lapchick
-
Tournament against
Youngstown State, learned one
thing very quickly - Marathon Oil
could shoot from nearly unlimited
range.
Marathon Oil, led by forward
Kevin Sprewer's 24 points, placed
70 percent of its shots in the basket.
T-he Oilers readily shot from
beyond the newly instituted three-
poinf line, converting eight of 18
·
attempts from beyond 19 feet, 9 in-
•
ches from the rim. Marist did not
attempt any three-point field goals
in the contest.
In the first half, Marist
discovered Marathon Oil was a
team built for speed. The Red
Foxes were forced to depart from
their deliberate offensive patterns
and trailed 51-42 at the close of a
high-scoring first half. Junior
center
Rik
Smits scored 13 of his
team-high 17 points in the opening
20 minutes for Marist.
The second half saw Marathon
eliminate Smits from the Marist
game plan. This tactic, along with
searing outside shooting, helped
the Oilers pad their lead as high as
13 early in the second half.
Marist pulled to within eight
with 6: 13 remaining in the game
when freshman guard Chris Green
converted a three-point play after
being fouled while sinking a driv-
ing layup in the lane. However, the
Red Foxes would come no closer
as
Eugene Richardson sunk a three-
pointer at the 5:22 mark of these-
cond half.
