But after 16 years of hard
work, Patrice, 69, is feeling the
impact.

In

with
arthritis.
But still, she endures. "Well,
honey,
I
must not stop working
because there are so many peo-
ple out there who are much
worse off than I."
She recalled the time when a
woman carrying a baby thank-
ed her for the dinner -
telling
her that it was the first time in
weeks that her baby had milk.
The mother said that she
couldn't afford it. Patrice sent
a "care package" home with the
mother so the baby would have
milk, even if just for a while.

can
relate to the fami-
ly's shortage of milk. Growing

sweetened water to reduce her
stomach pains.

of 1978 he got a call asking him
it
he was interested in working in the
White House.
",I
thought it was a joke," said
Zedonek.
"I
didn't even know the
White House Communication
Agency existed."
Zedonek, then in his late 20's,
was a little overwhelmed by his new
position.
"I
was awed at first," he said.
"The first time you shake his hand,
both of them (Carter and Reagan),
you are overwhelmed - a sense of
awe."
Working at the White House was
not all news conferences and good
times. Zedonek was monitoring the
secret service communications the
day Reagan was shot and was also
among the first to know that the
embassy in
Iran
was in trouble.
"We hear.d them (the Secret Ser-
. vig:)~~-¥-'To~.Pr~i'!~nfsbeen hit .. '
·we thought he was in a car acci-
dent, then realized what happen-
ed," said Zedonek.
After President Reagan was
shot, the communications agency
flew into action. First, Vice Presi-
dent George Bush, who was on a
runway at a Houston airport, had
to be notified to return to
Washington immediately.
The agency had to set up a com-
munication command post at the
hospital. Next, the agency had to
set up a press room and ready all
the necessary equipment for a press
conference. According to Zedonek,
it was a very hectic day, especially
when someone you know well has
been shot.

No one is ever turned away.
"Some come with dirty or torn
clothes, others don't wash their
face or hair," she said. "But we ·
don't care, honey, as long as
they leave here with a full
stomach."
Cilrrently, the Adult Student
Union is selling raffle tickets
with all the proceeds to be
donated to the dinner. "All the
officers of the union were
familiar with Mrs. Patrice's
work with the needy," said
Carmen Lyon, ASU secretary.
"As long as I have lived in
Poughkeepsie, her dinners were
· a tradition."
In addition to the Thanksgiv-
ing dinner, Patrice· throws an
annual Christmas party for the
poor children of the Hudson
Valley. She collects toys and
wraps them so that "her
children"
will
have a Christmas
gift.
For Patrice, there's nothing
more rewarding than touching
the lives of people. "Well,
Lord, even if I die during din-
ner I
will
be fulfilled," she said.
However, Patrice wishes she
could be 20 years younger. "I
could do more then,"
she
said.

working at Music Television Net-

and

in
the
areas

According to Director of Intern-

of · Marist interns -at MTV are
growing.
-"We
now send two or three
in-
terns to
MTV
every semester," said
most popular internships due to the
onslaught of music video;''
·
Since it was formed in 1981,
MTV has been involved in music
video programing and has offered
one recent Marist graduate an op-
portunity he deemed ideal.
"While I was at Marist
I was in-
terested in television production,
but I was
also
involved in radio and
active with
WMCR,"
said Robert
R.
LaForty, a
1985 Marist graduate
who now works for MTV as a pro-
duction clerk. "When MTV first
began broadcasting I was very ex-
cited and looked at the network as
an ideal place to work."
Marist senior Marilyn Papa, who
spent last summer interning
at
MTV
as a production · assistant,
also
benefitted greatly from her
ex-
perience at the network.
"I
think it's one
of
the best

ternships

can
get," 'said Papa.
"They
really want
to
help
you out and let you get in-
volved with everything."
Papa's summer work involved
her in
37
productions and placed
her on a recommendation list for
employment at CBS;

Jon McBride was a struggling Hollywood actor when he decid-
ed to pack it in and head back to his Connecticut home to make
a movie.
And after a few phone calls to his college chum, Tom Fisher,
the movie was in motion.
McBride and Fisher took a skeleton script, a combined
15-member cast and crew -
and ·a great deal of enthusiasm -
to a deserted campsite in Connecticut and produced their own film,
a 90-minute horror flick called "Cannibal Campout."
"It
was something we always wanted to do, and we wanted to.
see if we could do it," said McBride, a 1983 communications
graduate from Ridgefield, Conn. They hope to distribute the film
through video stores.
At Marist, both Fisher and McBride were members of the Col-
lege Union Board, which sponsors films on campus. "We both
had the same interests in movies and both owned our own VCRs,"
said McBride.
After graduating, McBride took his act to Hollywood, where
he had "walk-on parts'' in such television shows as "The Golden
Girls," "Moonlighting" and some soap operas. It was there the
idea for "Cannibal Campout" was born.
"I remember saying to myself, You could do this for pennies
compared to the money they throw away," McBride said in a re-
cent phone interview with The Circle. "The salaries of just the ac-
tors are phenomenal."
"It
was a lot of tiring work especially _after a five day work
week,"
said fi~her.-
a
Montrose,
N.Y.,
resident and
1984
com-
munications graduate.
.
·
"Cannibal Campout" resembles "Friday the 13th." The film
begins with four college students going camping for a weekend at
a deserted campsite. There are three killers who go out -
one by
one -
to kill the campers.
"We didn't have the money or the acting ability to produce a
great thriller, so we went for the gore," said McBride as he discuss-
ed the secrets for making a scene in which a person's stomach is
torn apart.
"It's not the greatest of films but if you like blood and gore,
this is the film for you," said Fisher.
The film, which was shot in Ridgefield, Peekskill, N.Y., and
part of New Jersey, has received
11
offers from video stores.
The completion of the film depended on the right combination
of people and attitudes, McBride said. "We made the characters
from the people, instead of making the people become the
characters," said McBride. "One of the cast members was totally
off the wall, and his character became one of the key ingredients."
Whether the film is a success or not, McBride and Fisher say
they still think of it
as
an accomplishment. "We proved that
if
you want to do something you don't have to wait for someone
else -
you can do it yourself," said McBride.
McBride has been doing small acting parts and ~ould eventual-
ly like to become a producer. One of his latest scripts is being con-
sidered by Harry Ackerman, a !"lollyw~od pro~ucer..
.. .
Fisher is a mechanic and has his own video mall service. I hke
to do all sorts of things; I get bored easy. The film is one such

races

Political polling will take on
greater importance during the
presidential campaigns of the com-
ing year, according to Evans Witt,
an Associated Press journalist who
spoke in the Fireside Lounge last
week.
"The polls haven't been a major
factor yet this year," said Witt, ad-
dressing an audience of about 70
students and faculty members.
"(But) the impact of the polls will
change dramatically, and will
change soon."
Vice President George Bush has
been the clear Republican front-
runner thus far and most of the
Democrats are not very well-
known, according to
Witt. Six
months ago, Gary Hart was the
leading Democratic candidate, but
he dropped out of the race for per-
sonal reasons, as did Joseph Biden
two
months ago.
"The campaigns were beheaded
in May when the frontrunner
(Hart), was cut off," said Witt.
"We went from a front-runner
. campaign to a nobody campaign."
Because of the withdrawals of
Hart and Biden, the questions of
the public and the media will
become very serious and probing,
said Witt. "There is a lot more
that's free game (now)," he said.
"What else are we going to find out
about the candidates as the cam-
paign really gets going?"
"The candidates ask for the
voters' approval in running, and
they are subject to that approval,"
he said. "It's a very difficult ques-
tion on where you draw the line
between private and public life."
"The polls are used extensively
by the media and the campaigns,
and the information is much more
efficiently obtained by polls,'' said
"They really pay attention to you
and make sure you're getting what
you're here for."
Austin commented on how
casual the working atmosphere is
at MTV and said that although he
had not expected this from the net-
work it was something he was hap-
py with.
.
"When
I came in for my inter-
view
last winter I was wearing a
jacket and tie," said Austin.
"I
don't think I've ever felt so out of
place in my life."
LaForte said he also enjoys the
casual atmosphere at MTV and at-
tributes it to the fact that the
average person working for the net-
The casual
atmosphere
does not,
however, take away professional
attitude, according to Austin, who
-said he has gained tremendously
from his experience.
"Not to put Marist down or
anything, but I learned more in my
five month internship than in the
other three whole years of
classes,"
said Austin.
MTV
encourages any Marist stu-
dent, whether they are majoring in
communications or not, to apply
for an internship with the network,
according to John Mulvey,
a
1974
Marist graduate who is now direc-
tor of human resources for MTV
Network.

Witt. "The polls are much better
now compared to in 1980; they
have better techniques, better
technology."
Witt said candidates will use
polling if their campaign can afford
to. "It's expensive, but it gives you
a much better idea of where the
election is going," he said.
According to Witt, the polls have
always had an effect on the can-
didates' actions. In September
1980, Ronald Reagan and former
President Carter were equal in the
polls, Witt said. "Reagan promis-
ed he would appoint a woman to
the Supreme Court and I'm con-
vinced that he did it because of the
polls," he said. "(He) was to go on
and win by a landslide, but no one
would have known that in
September 1980."
Witt said there will be more poll-
ing as the campaigns progress, and
the Republicans will conduct at
least one poll every month leading
up
to
the primary.
"The pre-season is finally over,"
he said, "but it has been one heck
of a pre-season."

to Phil Mason who is the new
director of Dinlng Services.
At lunch, three entrees are being
served instead of two and two pace
breakers are being offered each
week,
such as the "doughnut ex-
travaganza" and the "foot by foot
sub," said Mason.
Mason recently went to the New
York Food show to get ideas for
the cafeteria and see what new
techniques have been developed.
The managers, according to
Mason like what they do and often
put in 12 to
14
hours a day. Also,
the cooks will also be going to a
training session at the Culinary In-
stitute of America. Mason said that
the work is paying off but there are
still complaints.
"You always get a complaint
about a
certain
meal," said Mason.
"There are complaints about
changes in time or too much of one
thing in a week." .
One way that complaints are
dealt with is the food committee,
which is open to all students and
meets
OD
Thursdays at
I
:00 p.m.
Mason said that he would like to
see more students involved with in
and would encourage commuters
to join and give their input on the
coffee shops.
If a student could not make the
meeting they could write down
their comments and give
it to one
of the managers, said Mason.
Kanish, like some students still
has complaints.
· "You
can
pick up a
knife
and tell
what's for dinner without even
looking at the menu," said Kanish
of the conditions in the cafeteria.
Brian Grau, a freshman from
Selden,
N.Y. enjoys the pace
breakers.
"Steak night was the best meal
we ever had here," said Grau. "We
could only have one steak -
that
was
the
bummer."
Members of the Marist Col-
lege Council on Theater Arts
will act
as
guides when they per-
form the musical "Hair" this
weekend.
Jeanmarie Magrino, a Marist
alumna, is directing the produc-
tion and said the play is one of
the biggest musicals that has
been put on at Marist with over
twenty songs.
"The play is practically all
music," said Magrino.
She also said that people
coming to see the performance
expecting to see something like
the 1978 film version of the
musical will be surprised. In an
· attempt to capture the mood of
the younger generation at the
.. time, the play, which premiered
"The movie had to adapt to
be
commercial. In the play there
is no set. The actors are suppos-
ed
to
be
on a stage. But the back
drop we have is great," said
Magrino.
"The play is a reflection of
the thoughts and reaction of the
youth of the sixties and the
whole Vietnam situation," said
Magrino. She also warned that
the material may not
be
suitable
for younger audiences.
"It's not just entertainment,
it's a trip back into the sixties-
And the twenty cast members
guide the audience," said
Magrino.

To the Editor:
As
fellow columnists,
we were
both appalled and embarrassed to
find our essays on the
same
page
as
Jeff Nicosia's Alternative Top
10 list
in
the Circle on Nov. 12.
Mr.
Nicosia's examination of ten
"remotely interesting" people
blatantly overlooked
an
obvious
candidate who has entertained
dozens of people
for
nearly two
decades. This oversight, of course,
was the absence of the late, great
Hayden Roarke.
Perhaps Mr. Roarke's timely
demise last summer disqualified
him from consideration. Yet,
Roarke's portrayal of Dr. Alfred
Bellows on
"I Dream
of Jeannie"
from
1965
until
1970
transcends
time and space and is clearly deser-
ving of
Mr.
Nicosia's scrutiny.
At the very least, Hayden
Roarke should have tied with
Albert Stridsbcrg.

Alex de Tocqueville once wrote
that "Americans of all ages, all sta-
tions in life, and all types of
dispositions are forever forming
associations." On the average,
most
of us have that irrepressible
want to belong. We join frater-
nities_, choirs and sports teams in an
effort to establish or improve our
skills. Whatever the reason, we all
like to be with those who have
similar interests.
For those interested in attending
law school, there is a new club in

The Future Lawyers Society
will
bring advisement to you. FLS will
sponsor organized visits to law
school
campuses,
invite profes-
sionals to give lectures on different
aspects of a career in law and en-
courage the administration to of-
fer LSAT prep courses on campus.
'
In addition, the Future Lawyers
Society will be your first step to
networking. A
_major
concern for
students in general is the cost of tui-
tion. Forthis reason, connections
are important. They can help you
gain advice about whom to contact
concerning financial aid, scholar-
ships, and loans.
Through FLS you
can
also iden-
tify your peer group (this is quite
similar
_
to knowing the competi-
tion): Once you are aware of what
you are up against, you will be able
to
gauge
your efforts and redefine
your goals. But mQst important,
FLS will be the forum on which
students with similar interests can
establish academic comradery.
FLS would like to show that all
students can affect change. We
should not wait for the administra-
tion to perceive our needs; the ad-
ministration does not necessarily
have its fingers on the pulse of this
community. Thus, we should
organize,
in
a constructive manner,
and speak out about those issues
that concern us. If we choose to
bottle our concerns, we will deny
the administration the opportuni-
ty to respond to our needs.
It
is our hope that the Future
Lawyers Society will serve as
a
catalyst for change. There might be
areas in your field of study that are
lacking. Look into them and speak
out. Do not opt for the status quo.

The Circle: You've lost Jennife.r
Gray,
last
season's starting center,
to gnduation. How do yon plan to
fill the gap left at center position?
Babineau:
Right
now there pro-
bably is no starting lineup. We'll
be
playing a lot of people this year
because we have greater depth. I
would say that center goes to Sue
Lynn based on her performance in
preseason and her being a junior
with experience. We've recruited a
6-3
freshman from Dublin, Ruth
Halley is her name, who is just not
ready to go yet physically because
of
a
serious ankle sprain
.
She'll
eventually be pushing for a starting
position on the post.
The Circle: Roth Halley
is ac-
customed to playing European
basketball. Will that
be
a setback
in her performance here?
Babineau:
No, not really. There
are certain rule changes she'll have
to adjust to but I really don't
see
a
problem. Basketball
is
basketball.
It's basically played one way.
'De
Orde:

team, consisting mostly of
freshmen and sophomores. This
hurt
.
the team last year. How do
you
expect to change the
results this
year?
Babineau:
Last year's season was
actually successful in one way and
unsuccessful in another. We lost a
lot of games, but I told the players
at the beginning of the season that
I
was going to weigh the success not
on W's and L's, but on improve-
ment. We were very successful in
that respect
.
A plus to last year is
that a lot of those freshmen got to
play a lot of minutes. Our situation
forced us into it. Now, they're
coming back with a full year of ex-
perience under their belts - more
than they would have if we'd had
an experienced team when they
came
in
.
The Circle£ What are the team's
strengths?
Babineau:
Right now we're leaps
and bounds better than we were
last year. One strength is obvious-
ly our depth. Last year, in many of
our games we ended up playing
with eight healthy people. We've
got 16 players now. Another plus
is that we're so much quicker than
we were last year. We brought
in
(guards) Maureen Dowe and Nan-
cy
Holbrook. They bring a dimen-
sion to the team that we didn't have
last year. Our point gu~mls really
did not have much foot speed.
We're
also
bigger
than
we were
last
year. (Uanielle) Galarneau was an
all-star player in Troy, N. Y. Last
year, we only had two people above
6-1,
now we have three on scholar-
ships and another a walk-on.
The Circle: What are the team's
weaknesses?
Babineau:
Inexperience, from a
·
standpoint that we're mostly
freshmen and sophomores. Last
year I ran the season according to
who I had in talent. We were
basically an outside, perimeter-
shooting team
.
this year, they've
got to adjust to a more up-tempo
style. It'll be a transition team.
That will be a weakness, even
though it will be a strength later.
The Circle: This year's schedule
is more difficult than in the past,
with Marist playing Georgia Tech
on
Dec. 19., relatively early in the
season. What effects will the
Im•
proved schedule have on the
team?
Babineau:
I'm being realistic. I'd
never accept a defeat before we get
into a game. Georgia Tech will not
be an easy team for us to play.
We've got to play some of the best
basketball we've ever played, but
we'll never get better by playing
teams weaker than us. There's no
patsy in our non-conference
schedule -
to me that's a plus. I
think we show more credibility in
our program by playing better
teams. And losing to
a
top 20 or 30
team doesn't necessarily h~ you.
It might even help you.

basket more and not lose his
effectiveness.
The Circle:
If
the Southampton
game were tonight, what would
be
your starting lineup?
Magarity:
Our starting lineup
would be Smits and Bourgarel at
the post, Drafton Davis at the point
guard position and the
wings
would
be a toss-up between O'Connor,
(Reggie)
Gaut, Paterno and
Reasbeck. There's been
a
lot of
competition and I've been very
pleased with
all
four of those in-
dividuals. Joey (O'Connor) brings
us a little more experience
and
he
can
also back up Drafton (Davis)
at the point. Paterno has been
hampered by some nagging in-
juries. We have a lot of depth in
that position and
I haven't come to
a conclusive decision about that.
The Circle: How
will
the lineup
be
affected when John Kijonek and
Curtis Celestine become eligible to
play?
Magarity:
I think that
John, not
that he has guaranteed himself a
starting position, but anytime that
he's had the opportunity to play
in
a
situation that's being heavily
scrutinized, for example the intras-
quad game we had at Poughkeep-
sie High School- Rik had
47
points, Rudy got
30
points and
John got
27 points. Those three
were far and above the most pro-
ductive offensive players that we
have.
I would think that once he
becomes eligible, John will play a
very big role in out success. Cur-
tis, on the other hand is a very
talented individual who has not had
the opportunity to play college
basketball through this point in his
career.
The Circle: Many of the athletes
recruited by your predecessors have
since left Marist and many have
brought controversy to the pro-
gram. Do you think this
will
damage the reputation of the
program?
Magarity:
No.
-
It's no more
damaging than the things that we
inherited from the NCAA pro-
blems. We had nothing to do with
that, everyone
is
aware
of that. I
think anybody that's familiar with
our program has to come up with
certain conclusions. Number one,
we're doing things the right way by
recruiting the type of kid that I
think will be successful. I'm not
saying that every kid that
I
recruit
is going to be a choir boy or a
Rhodes Scholar, all I'm saying is
that if we do our job ~roperly, it's
inevitable that the program will
continue to grow.
·
The Circle: You are Marist's
fourth head basketball coach in
four ~ears. In those four years
Marist has been successful, but cer-
tainly not stable. What do you
think you can do to bring stability
to the prog~?
Magarity:
I think loyalty is a
very tough thing in this business.

Marist b-ball: you've come a long way, baby
by Don Reardon
and, according to Goldman, several professional teams
scouted Weiss, though he never made it to big-time ball.
Weiss still resides locally and works for IBM.
the talent coming in," said Menapace. "The quality of the
players has improved so much over the past few years."
Dr. Howard Goldman remembers a grim night "sometime
back in the early
'60s"
when the members of the Marist Col-
. lege basketball team shook their heads in disbelief as they
glared at the Lourdes High School scoreboard.
In 1967, Ron Petro was hired to assume the dual role of
athletic director and head basketball coach .
Petro wanted to insure The quality of the talent coming
in and he did so by traveling the globe in search of diamonds
in the rough.
The Red Foxes lost by more than 70 points to the visiting
Philadelphia Textile squad on that night more than 20 years
ago.
·
According to Marist chemistry professor Dr. Larry
Menapace, who served as an assist to Petro from 1972
through 1983, Petro's squads didn't always have fairytale
endings to their games.
Petro's talent hunt payed off. In 1984, he found a 7-3 gem
by the name of Rik Smits. Petro also dug Frenchman Alain
Forestier and Yugoslavian native Miroslav Pecarski out of
the diamond mine.
Marist basketball has seen whirlwind changes since the in-
ception of the program in 1961 when the Red Foxes posted
a modest 4-5 record against
NAIA
and Division Three com-
petition like SUNY New Paltz, Berkshire Christian, The
King's College and Bloomfield College.
The Red Foxes took several thrashings from the then
basketball powerhouses Iona and Manhattan.
"We once played against Manhattan and their
6-10
center
Bill Campion," he said. "We weren't a scholarship team
so we didn't have players like him."
Petro accepted a job as athletic director at the University
of Anchorage in 1984. Matt Furjanic, an import from ECAC
Metro Conference foe Robert Morris, took over as coach
just three days before practice started during the 1984-85
season.
"The team used to practice in the old gymnasium, which
is now Marian Hall," said Goldman, who served as athletic
director and junior varsity coach during the infant years of
the program.
"One of our boys went up for a rebound with Campion
and got knocked down and had to be taken out. One of our
other guys said, 'Coach, put me in and I'll take care of him.'
Well, he went in and, Bang! Campion ended up knocking
him out too," said Menapace.
Petro might have picked up his Alaskan newspapers to
see that Smits tossed in 324 points (
11.1
ppg) and the Red
Foxes clinched their first conference title with a 17-12 record.
"The inside of the building was about
60
feet by 100 feet
with a stage at one end and about two feet of extra space
around the actual court," said Goldman. "The brothers had.
to sit up on the stage if they wanted to see the team play."
The lack of space in the old gymnasium forced the Red
Fox hoopsters to play all their "home" games at Our Lady
of Lourdes High School in Poughkeepsie. According to
Goldman, the jump across town to a non-Marist facility
sometimes caused problems.
The Red Foxes pounded the boards of Lourdes High
School until 1977 when the James J. McCann Recrealion
Center was constructed. Marist played in the NCAA Divi-
sion Two from 1978 to 1980.-
Furjanic worked his magic during the 1985-86 season again
as the Red Foxes won the conference title and made the
Pilgrimage to Baton Rouge, La., where they were defeated
by Georgia Tech 68-53 in the first Round of the NCAA
Tournament.
The magic show continued last year, but the squad per-
formed under a different magician. Dave Magarity, once the
head coach at St. Francis, Pa., Pa., and an assistant with
the Gaels of Iona, moved into the drivers scat shortly after
Furjanic's departure.
With the arrival of a new decade and Dennis Murray,
Petro's task became a monstrous one: Turn the Red Foxes
into a nationally competitive
NCAA
Division One program.
"Lourdes controlled the facility, so if something went
wrong and a janitor didn't show up we couldn't play," he
said.
The wooden floorboards of Lourdes saw the first Marist
1,000-point career scorer in 1965. Fred Weiss was the man,

basketball was not one of their finest. The 1981 Red
Foxes, led by all-time leading scorer Steve Smith (2,077
points), posted a mediocre, but nonetheless respectable, 12-15
record.
Center Rik Smits and steal/assist specialist Drafton Davis
brought the team once again to the NCAA tournament. Once
again the Red Foxes lost, this time to the beast of the Big
East, Pittsburgh.

by Chris Barry
William and Grace Paterno of
Spring Lake, N.J., have twice the ·
interest in Red Fox basketball of
any typical parents of Marist
students.
The two youngest of their 11
children play for Marist. Steve is on
a men's basketball scholarship,
while Katy is a walk-on with the
women's hoop team.
It
is not surprising the two play
basketball. They come from a
family rich in basketball tradition,
where five on five games often oc-
cur when the family gets together.
It is also not so surprising the
two decided to play at the same
school. After all - they are twins.
Steve said Katy joined him while
he was visiting Marist and she
decided to come here too.
"At that point I was mad, but
now I'm glad because it's easier on
our parents with us both at the
same school," Steve said.
Steve lives in Sheahan Hall while
Katy resides in Marian Hall.
Together, they are adjusting to col-
lege life.
"Steve adjusted himself better to
college than Katy did," Grace said.
"I thought it would be the other
way around."
And both are trying to adjust to
Division I basketball.
"It's very different; it's hard,"
Katy said. Basketball here is a lot
quicker."
Steve agreed. "College basket-
ball is a lot more organized than
high school," he said. "In high
school you just went out and
played."
Marist Men's Basketball Head
Coach Dave Magarity said Steve
has adjusted well to the college's
hoop scene.
"He's made a smooth transi-
tion," said Magarity. "His biggest
problem is going to be to stay
healthy.
"He had some minor injuries
which are becoming nagging in-
juries," Magarity said. "He had a
groin injury which hampered him
in the state playoffs last year. At
the beginning of this year, Pater-
no aggravated the groin again, and
he also bruised the thumb of his
shooting hand," said Magarity.
Ironically, Katy has also injured
the thumb of her shooting hand.
"It's difficult for me to say what

her adjustments have been," said
Ken Babineau, women's head
basketball coach. "My knowledge
of her was somewhat limited," he
said.
"I think they're both adjusting
well," said senior guard John
McDonough, who played high
school ball with the twins' older
brothers Joe and Mike - who also
play Division I basketball.
"Stevie's fitting in pretty well,"
McDonough said. "There are some
things he's got to learn, but they're
things that all freshmen have to
learn."
"Steve is doing really well," Ka-
ty said. "I watched his scrimmage
the other night, he did well," she
said.
.
But for Katy there is no scholar-
ship and no guarantees. This is
something Babineau has made
clear. "I have to work twice as hard
as everybody else on the team
because they're on scholarships and
I'm a walk-on," she said. "But it's
fun, I'm having a good time."
Grace said the family's interest
in athletics stems from her hus-
band, who was always putting a
baseball or basketball in their
hands when they were young. "It's
all his fault," she said.

Off the cuff: the opponents at a glance
Editor's note: This season, tbe
Marist men's basketball team
will
face Its most difficult schedule of
opponents ever. Last
week, Head
Coach Dave Magarity told Circle
Spor1S FAlitor Annie
Breslin
bis opi-
nions
regarding all
of the Red
Foxes' 1987-88 opponents.
Southampton - It's a game that
we will be expected to win. But it's
important that we don't overlook
them.
Jl·
Brooklyn -
Brooklyn is very
talented. They're not quite as big
as us
but they have some experience
in certain positions.
Niagara (possible opponent) -
Niagara is coming off one of the
best seasons of the past
15
years.
They've got a couple of key players
back, in particular, Mark Henry
who's a very talented 6-8 forward
from Canada.
Chicago State (possible oppo-
nent) - They've got a seven-footer
of note who is supposed to be up
and coming. He could be a very
good test for Rik and Rudy in the
early part of the year.
Siena -
In one publication,
Siena is picked to win the ECAC
North Atlantic. I'm concerned with
it because it is so early. It's going
to be very emotional and we will
not have the services of Kijonek
and Celestine.
Fairfield - (Fairfield)
will
be the
first game back for Kijonek and
Celestine. Fairfield is going to be
very young but they have some key
guys back, Troy Bradford in par-
ticular, who
had a
20.point game
against us here last year. I'm real-
ly concerned about them because
they've got some great depth and
they're going to be bigger than
they've been in the _last
10
years.
St. John's -
Obviously a very
big game. It's the second time
we've played St. John's in the last
three years and St. John's
will have
a
new look without Mark Jackson.
I think it's going to be a big
challenge for us and it's a game
that we're going to have to
be
ready
for.
Kansas (possible opponent) -
There
is
always the possible mat-
chup between Smits and Danny
Manning, although they probably
would not be pla~ng each other.
It will still be interesting
to
see
those two on the same floor
together.
Memphis State (possible oppo-
nent) - Memphis is the defending
champion of the Metro Con-
ference. A very, very strong team,
they were unable to go to the

Some polite. thoughts on the art of Complaining
by
Lauren Arthur
It was a quiet day at the dog
groomer's when

day, and then brought her to me.
Oh good, I thought. She didn't
draw blood this time.
When Sandy the groomer walk-
ed my dog into the waiting area, I
was speechless.
My
first thought
was to run to the police and report
t1:1e murder. She killed
my
dog, and
pasted floppy ears on the biggest
rat she could find.
"Woof," barked the unbearably
ugly creature on the floor.
As I knelt
to conceal my horror,
it wagged its tail and looked at me
sadly. It was Muffin.
I scooped the once fluffy pup off
the floor and stood up. Before
I
could say anything, Sandy (the
scalper) said,
"I
thought she'd look
cute with a puppy cut. Do you like
it?"
Puppy cut,
I thought. My dog
has no hair, she looks like a gigan-
tic baby hamster, and you're call-
ing it a puppy cut.
"Oh, she looks adorable," I lied.

I

wanted to rip her hair out and ask
how she liked a "puppy cut," but
as usual, I wimped out and left,
pretending to be a happy customer.
"That will

Sandy (the butcher).
I steadied my hand and wrote

"Who are you trying to kid,"
my brother said.
After eating my dinner in silence,
I went to my room and flopped on
my bed.
"O.K., loser,"
I said to myself.
"Today you get a back bone, you
spineless jellyfish."
I began picturing myself
as
a
pushy, aggressive person, unafraid
of telling the truth. Suddenly
I

I fell asleep.
Muffin hung her head as she
slinked up the driveway past Har-

This spring:
short, sexy
by
Stephanie- Blear and
Jessica
Panduro
The m~ge for spring is short
and sexy. Designers acr:oss the
board are showing skirts thigh
high, with lo~ of leg
~d
a snug
fit.
Suits are sharp, cri~p and ~efin-
ed, emphasizing the bust, waist and "'
hips. Seventh Avenue in New York
'-·.
City, the heart of the garment
district, has shown a whole new at-
titude in fashion collections. This
season being younger than ever
with imaginative fabrics and
colors.
·
The new fashion look is shorts
for day and evening. You'll find
them in surprising but sensual
fabrics as satin, lace and linen.
Where it was once the dinner dress,
it is now the dinner shorts.
Bill Blass' spring collection
shows many lace shorts that have
a sex appeal that is very new.
Pants are also making a com-
eback. Their cut is long and lean.
Calvin Klein has been a leader in
the new wave of evening pants.

Lameness: Getting hit in the
Moving into the eye of the hurricane
by
Derek Simon
The Alarm strikes me
as
very,
very real. Their subtle yet ag-
gressive brand of very British rock
and roll has genuine authenticity.
They have made it a point to main-
tain the edge that made them the
apple of the budding new music
scene's eye some four years ago
while polishing every other facet of
their musical personality.
But with their latest album, "Eye
Of The Hurricane," The Alarm
have taken a giant step sideways.
"Hurricane lacks the bite of the
band's previous efforts. The
songwriting on the record is once
again very strong but the edge that
has been so characteristic of their
style has been suppressed.
On The Alarm's earlier full
length albums, "Declaration" and
"Strength," the band rocked with
a rare conviction. But immediate-
ly obvious on "Eye ~f The Hur-
of
sound
mind
ricane" is the sporadicness of this
conviction. We get a taste of it on
"Newtown Jericho," "Rescue
Me" and the album's title track,
but by and large the conviction is
glaringly lacking. This is especial-
ly evident on the album's first
single, "Rain In The Summer-
time." One will realize after a
single listening that "Eye Of The
Hurricane" is constructed with
much more of a pop sensibility
than any previous offering from
the band.
This is not to say that this album
has nothing to offer Alarm fans of
old.
It
most certainly does. "Eye
Of The Hurricane" is as inspira-

A
to
Z
by
Kristine Manning
Only 24 letters in the alphabet
separate A from Z, but for some
people that separation affects their
way of life.
People whose last names begin
with A are lucky enough -
or
unlucky enough -
to always be
first, while those who fall into the
Z's always fall last.
"There is definitely prejudice
toward people at the end of the
alphabet," said Dr. Louis Zuc-
carello, a professor of polictical
science. "People have to learn to
treat their brethren at the end the
same way they treat the ones at the
beginning."
For Lori Zajkowski, a senior
business major from Cornwall,
N.Y., patience is no virtue when
you have to stand at the end of the
lunch line. "When l was in gram-
mar school," said Zajkowski, "I
would have to wait till all the A's
through Y's got their lunch before
I was able to obtain the now cold·
cafeteria food."
Lunch lines are not the only
times people use alphabetical listing
as a means of organization. When
Dr. Zuccarello came to. Marist he
remembers the registrar using
alphabetical listing second after
cl_ass year for registration.
"It really wasn't fair," Zuc-
carello said. "The people at the end
got bumped out of classes because
they were unlucky enough to be
born with a last name falling at the
end of the alphabet." Since then
Zµcc_arellohas helped change this.

either," -said Sean
Armstrong, a political science ma-
jor from Staten Island,
N. Y.,
who
is•= often marked late for classes
. because he misses his name on the
attendance roll. "Sometimes I
would only be a minute late for
class but the teacher would already
be on the B's," said Armstrong;
. Peter Amato, a senior criminal
justice major from Brooklyn, said
· he always has a knot in his stomach
because he knows he'll always be
the first one called on in class. "It
was bad enough that I always _had
to sit in the front of the class under
the teacher's nose," he said, "but
whenever there was an answer to be
given I was the first one called on."
·oeceased.- Marist professor
Raphael Mark once said, "Arthur,
Anhur Lauren, do you have a
brother Ralph?" to Lauren Arthur.
- Arthur~ a communications ma-
jor
from
Garfield,
N.J.,
remembers that first Broadcasting
class. "I felt so stupid," she said.
"Not only "'.as I the first one call-
ed, but Professor _Mark confused
my.first and last name."
· William Zahurad, a junior com-
puter science major from
Poughkeepsie,
uses
the
alphabetical listing in the classroom
to his advantage. "l find it quite
opportunistic to be last," he said.
"I was always last to read my paper
and usually the class would have
already run out of time before it
was my turn."
"I'm always last," said John
Zimoulis, a senior accounting ma-
jor from Poughkeepsie. "I will
always be fast so I just accept it."
