Sliwas talk
at Marist
about Angels
by Michael Hayes
On Feb. 13, 1979, a 13-man
group ~nown as the Guardian
Angels took to the subways of New
York in an effort to regain the ter-
ritory that was lost to drug pushers,
vagrants and thieves. Although
considered a success by many, 10
years later the organization says
that it still feels resistance.
Group founder and leader Cur-
. tis Sliwa and his wife Lisa, also an
Angel leader, addressed this issue
as well as the issues of crime and
its prevention in a lecture spon-
sored by the College Union Board
last Tuesday.
Although the Guardian Angels
have spread from New York to
more than 60 cities and towns, Cur-

cording to Carl Gerberich, vice
president for information services.
"The work has been ahead of
schedule and as fast as we can
splice the cable there will be dial
tones," Gerberich said. "It's very
labor intensive."
Work will be completed as soon
as New York Telephone can splice
the cables carrying the phone ser-
vice from the Donnelly Hall base-
ment to the dorm, Gerberich said.
He estimated there may be more
than 200 cables to connect.

Next door, Eileen McGinley, a
sophomore from Fairfield, N.J
said some residents already have
answering machines and telephone
intercom systems.
"Everyone was freaking out in
the hallway when the girls next
door found out," she said.
"We were coming back from
class and heard that the 1st floor
had phones," said Sara Duncan, a
sophomore from Albany, N. Y.
"We plugged ours in and got a dial
tone."
Duncan and her roommate,
Mary Killeen from Floral Park,
N. Y .,
have an answering machine.
"We called everybody,"
said
Killeen. "It's better than the hall
phone, which has been broken up
until two weeks ago."

Dispute movie
opens locally
by Chris Landry
A pickett line formed in front of
Rhinebeck's Upstate Films to pro-
test the Hudson Valley premiere of
one of the most controversial films
of the year.
Political science club
lifts
·awareness with mock vote
Protestors gathered to voice their
opinion about "The Last Tempta-
tion of Christ" when it opened its
two-week run at the Montgomery
Street theater.
The film portrays Jesus, played
by Willem Dafoe, as a confused
man capable of fallible human
emotion rather than the almighty
Son of God.
The crucifixion scene is
the
film's most intense and controver-
sial and has sparked protests since
its Aug. 12 limited release.
As Jesus hangs on the cross he
begins to doubt his divine destiny
in which he will save the human
race from eternal sin. Jesus fan-
tasizes about making love to Mary
Magdelane, played by Barbara
Hershey. Thoughts of marriage to
her portray a Jesus that is suscep-
tible to all human feeling.
Because
the personal por-
trayal of Jesus strips him of the
traditional Catholic aura found in
the four Gospels of the Bible,
organizations such as The United
Scates Catholic Conference have
criticized the film, calling it morally
ob· ectionable.
by Steven Murray
In an effort to promote political
awareness and participation at
Marist, the political science club
ran a mock election one week
before the actual presidential elec-
tion was held.
The mock election, held on
Tuesday, Nov .1, was one part of
a four pronged program designed
not only to make students aware of
the election process, but also to get
students involved in the process,
according to Stacey Waite, presi-
dent of the political science club.
The election was held from 1 to
4 p.m., with voting locations in
. Donnelly Hall and the Campus
Center.
The findings of the election,
although not a true representation
of the school's voting population,
basically paralleled the national
results of the actual election held
on
Nov.8.
Of the 332 students that voted,
197 of them voted for Republican
candidate George Bush, while 122
students
voted
for Michael
Dukakis, the Democratic nominee.
Names of students and fictional
characters such
as Mickey Mouse
and Snoopy accounted for the re-
maining 13 votes.
In the national picture, virtually
all returns showed Bush defeating
Dukakis
54
percent to 46 percent
of the popular vote- 47 .6 million
votes for Bush, 40.7 million votes
for Dukakis.
Bush won 40 states with 426 elec-
toral votes, while Dukakis won on-
ly 10 states and the District of Col-
umbia for 112 electoral votes.
Nationally, it was estimated by
CBS news that only 49.1 percent of
the voting age population voted.
Since the mock election was not
publicized on campus, Waite said
it could not be held as a true indica-
tion of the voting turnout at
Marist.
Waite stressed that the mock
election was not a truly represen-
tative sample of how the students
at Marist voted-
its purpose was
only to raise political awareness.
"The goal of the club over the
past two months has been to foster
political awareness across the cam- .
pus," Waite said. "The mockelc-
tion was one part of this campaign.
The results do not indibite the true
feeling of the entire Marist popula-
tion. The intention
was
to draw at-

tention to the election."
Considering the lack of publici-
ty devoted to the mock election,
Waite said she was pleased with the
number of students who voted. The
entire political awareness campaign
was generally successful, she said.
"Because this is the political
science club's first year, we didn't
know what to expect because we
didn't have any past experience to
fall back on," Waite said. "We on-
ly expected around 250 people to
vote because it wasn't publicized."
The three other parts to the
awareness program also went well,
Waite said.
Voter registration for New York
and New Jersey residents was held
from Sept.26 to 29 in Donnelly

PLO accepts sovreignity right
ALGIERS - Yasir Arafat, chairman of the Palestine Liberation
Organization, declared Palestine to be an independent state this week,
while moving closer to recognizing Israel's right to exist.
During a meeting of the Palestine National Council, the PLO
reshaped its political agenda, with most of its members adopting more
moderate policies on such issues as Israeli sovereignty and the use of
terrorism, PLO spokesmen said.
Arafat has denounced the use of terrorism,
trying
instead to por-
tray the PLO as a peace-seeking force in the Middle East. While earlier
PLO policy had called for the destruction of Israel, PLO members
voted this week to·accept the United Nations resolution that proclaims
the right of sovereignty of each state in the region.
American officials have said they will not deal with the PLO unless
it explicitly recognizes Israel's right to exist. Members of the Reagan
administration, including President-elect George Bush, oppose
Arafat's declaration. Bush said a Palestinian state will not lead to
peace. Secretary of State George Schultz said peace between Arabs
and Jews in the Middle East must be negotiated by both sides.
All Israeli governments have rejected the notion of a Palestinian
state, as current Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir is expected to do.
Israeli authorities have tightened security to control demonstrations
by Palestinia,ns .. _

Gorbachev to visit U.S. next montt
WASHINGTON -
Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev will visit the
United States next month to address the United Nations and meet with
President Reagan and President-elect Bush, administration officials
said this week.

is•norvery entnus1asuc·about 1t. The Bus1b:amp1ias not
favored an early meeting with Gorbachev, and Bush said he doesn't
want a meeting unless he thinks progress could result.
Meantime, the Soviets have been looking ahead. Gorbachev is an-
ticipating stable and progressive relations with the Bush administra-
tion, hoping that Bush will be more willing than Reagan to negotiate
the Strategic Defense Initiative, Soviet officials said. Reagan's "Star
Wars" nuclear defense plan has been a stumbling block in Soviet-
American arms talks.
The Soviets made it known during the presidential campaign that
they prefer Bush to Democrat Michael Dukakis, not because they favor
Repbulican policy, but because they know what to expect from Bush.
In a message to Bush, Gorbachev said he looks forward to the "fur-
ther development of stable relations between the Soviet Union and
the United States."

,TNT,~r~ck~··down on drugs
'
NEW YORK - The New York City Police Department is fighting
drugs in Harlem with TNT.
.. ,
A program called the Tactical Narcotics Team, or TNT, which
police said was successful in southeast Queens, was expanded into
two drug-plagued precincts in Harlem this week.
As part of the campaign, 117 officers were assigned to the 23rd
and 25th precincts in Manhattan. Police arrested three suspected crack
dealers in their first 90 minutes on the streets. They confiscated 82
vials of crack.
The TNT sends investigators and undercover officers into the streets
to arrest low-level drug dealers. Information from these arrests is later
used to track down larger deals.
The police said they hope to expand the program into all five
boroughs. Police estimate 40 percent of all murders in New York Ci-
ty are drug-related.
Ju4ge stops mandatory AIDS tests
ALB~
- A State Supreme Court judge blocked an effort by
some me~,cal groups to have AIDS and HIV infection designated as
communicable and sexually transmitted diseases.
•
Such
~
designation would enact mandatory testing, investigating
a person s sexual contacts and other measures. When a disease is listed
as communicable and sexually transmitted, doctors, by law have the
right to test patients for the disease without their consent. Doctors
in New York must report AIDS cases but not HIV infections and
they do not have to identify the patient.
•
The State Societies of Surgeons, Orthopedic Surgeons Obstetri-
cians and Gynecologists and the Medical Society of the St~te of New
York petitioned Justice F. Warren Travers to require the health com-
missioner to put AIDS and HIV infection on the list. Travers ruled
that the commissioner, David Alexrod, could decide whether to put
acquired immune deficiency syndrome on the list of communicable
and sexually transmitted diseases.

tor of college activities.
"It's the intramural program's
contribution to help make students
aware that others do hunger for
food," said Lynch of the "Run for
Hunger."
The run is scheduled to begn at
11 :45 a.m. and "sign-ups" will be
taken in the College Activities Of-
fice. Donations of $2, or an
equivalent amount in cannned
goods, will be accepted and given
to local charities and Campus
Ministry.
Lynch said he would like to have
100 participants this year. Seventy
runners participated last year.
While the "Run for- Hunger'.'
has had a good turnout, Lynch said
that only 10 percent of the par-
ticipants in the intramural athletic
program are commuters.
"I would like to see more par-
ticipation
from
commuter
students,"
said Lynch, who
oversees many of the intramural
activities. Commuter students
aren't participating in the program
because of the time the games are
played, he said.
"It's an inconvenience for com-
muters to come back at night to
play a game," said Lynch.
Lynch said he is organizing a
campaign to focus on commuter in-
terest and interest applications are
being mailed to commuters homes
for the student to indicate what
sport they're interested in playing.
Marist gets grant to study computing for businesses
by
Nathan Robinson
Marist has received a $150,000
grant from the state Urban
Development Corporation to study
computer systems designed for
small businesses.
Approximately lO professors will
begin the nine-month
study
in
January,
said
Marc
VanderHeyden, vice president for
academic affairs.
Graduate students and recent
graduates will be employed by the
program as needed, according to
Donald Calista, head of Marist's
graduate public administration
program.
Calista said many small business
are uncertain of their software
needs and the first phase of the
study will examine that problem.
The study will ask different
business departments what infor-
mation they need and determine
what software will be best for the
entire company, he said.
Businesses frequently
buy
separate programming packages
for their departments that can't
communicate with each other, ac-
cording to Calista.
Calista said he hopes the study,
whose second phase may include
consulting small businesses, will
further boost the economv of the
prosperous mid-Hudson area.
"The study will contribute to the
economic development of an
area," he said. "More small
businesses will allow for increased
well-being."
Calista said the need for the
results of the study is great with the
possibilities for future
study
relatively unlimited. "The potential
for the grant exceeds our present
study," he said. "This
\-5
an untap-
ped area for study."
Some small local governments
are interested in participating in the
program, according to Calista who
is considering the proposition.
The study is part of a four-year

Canterbury.:.Marist

uni ors. left disconnected
by Paul O'Sullivan
Juniors both on-campus and off
are expressing concern that the
Marist housing situation inhibits
their class unity.
While most· students living in
Canterbury Apartments, an off-
campus housing unit rented by
Marist, said they had grown ac-
customed to living there, most
juniors say they are missing out on
getting to know their classmates.
According to Steve Sansola,
director of housing, approximate-
ly 196 juniors reside on campus and
136 live in Canterbury.
•
"We're kind of getting the short
end of the stick," said John
Downey, junior class president.
''I
think we have a prettJ close class,
but there is something missing.''
Stacey Waite, a townhouse resi-
dent from South Hadley, Mass.,
said she thinks poor planning by
the administration is to blame for
the lack of on-campus housing.
"They should have done
something to alleviate the problem
a long time ago," she said. "With
more students coming in than they
had room for, they had to know
this was going to happen."
Because of the size of her class,
as a sophomore Waite was placed
in a townhouse while most of her
classmates lived in Champagnat
Hall. That, combined with this
year's housing situation, makes her
feel out of touch.
We're kind of getting the short end of
the stick. I think we have a pretty close
class, but something is missing.
"I'm not getting to know my
class at all," she said.
"I
feel like
I'm going to be sitting at gradua-
tion
•
saying~ 'Gee, he's in
my
•
class?' "
Reportedly, the administration is
planning to build a new dormitory.
According to tentative plans, the
building will house 400 to 4SO
students, probably sophomores,
•
and
will
be located northwest of the
Campus Center. Administration
officials said construction should
start during the spring.
Downey said he believes juniors'
lack of enthusiasm is also to blame
for the lack of unity.
.
"We held a meeting to get ideas
for Junior Ring Day ceremonies
and posted over
SO
flyen, around
campus and at Canterbury - no
one
•
showed u_p," he said.
"Everyone complains but no one
.comes
out and does anything about
it."
Most juniors. at Canterbury,
however, cite the housing situation
as the reason for their lack of
participation.
"I'm not doing half the stuff I
used to as far as extracurricular ac-
tivities
go,"
said Dawn Carroll, of
Selden, N.Y., who also lives at
Canterbury. "The distance from
campus just makes it too dif-
ficult."
.
While Downey was aitical of the
apparent apathy of bis class, he ex-
pressed hope that things would get
better next year.
_
"I just hope that, as seniors,
we're not going to get shafted
again," he said.

to the confiscated beer?
by Karen Gorman
The question many Marist
students have as the residence
assistant walks away with their
beer is, "Where are they taking
•
it?"
According to Joseph Leary,
director of security and safety,
the beer is turned over to
charitable organizations.
"My main thing is to get it
out of here and that it goes
someplace
other
than
emplOYCCli,"
Leary said.
Once the beer is confiscated
by an RA
it
is taken to the
residence director and handed
over to security. It is stored in
a beer locker until there is
on campus.
Ken Foye, an RA in Marian
Hall from Northford, Conn.,
says that sometimes students get
angry because they do not know
where their confiscated beer is
going.
"If
the person is drunk they
usually start mouthing off to
you and usually say, 'You're
just taking the beer because you
want to drink it,' " Foye said.
Empty cans and bottles are
given to Campus Ministry so
·they can return them for
.
deposits, according to Foye.
The amount of beer con-
fascated varies from weekend to
weekend. According to Leary,

Marist' s Other Athletes
Intramural program
has Mccann jumping
by Carrie Boyle and Michael Kinane
There's three seconds left on the clock. The score
is tied at 28. The ball is inbounded to a player streak-
ing toward the basket. He shoots as the referee blows
the whistle to end the game.
•
No, this isn't Red Fox basketball. It's the end of
an intramural basketball game in the Mccann Center.
This is a common scene this semester - the busiest
semester yet for Marist's intramural program.
Whether it's sportsmanship, exercise or the oppor-
tunity to regain lost glory from high school days,
students are turning out in droves to participate in in-
tramurals this semester.
"There's a great deal of activity in the intramural
program," said Bob Lynch, assistant director of col-
lege activities, who coordinates the program's schedtil-
ing.
"I
feel very confident in the response we've receiv-
ed."
Currently, there are 36 3-on-3 basketball teams and
30 coed volleyball teams - the highest ever for those
sports -
as well as increased interest in bowling,
aerobics and flag football.
Reclaiming the limelight they once had from high
school is
a
common factor among many of the in-
tramural "stars."
According to Kevin Garrity, who spends time
as a
referee for the program, intrarnurals are a good way
to stay active in sports.
"If
you were an athete in high school and you're
not good enough to play on a college team,
it
gives
you a
chance
to
keep
playing,"
said
the senior from
'Bayone, N._J.

joined intramural sports because I
was
highly in- ·
volved in high school athletics and felt that colle~iate

intramurals might fill the competitive void left by not
pursuing varsity level sports at Marist," said senior
Steve Mack, an accounting major from Selma, Ala.
Mack lettered in football, baseball and wrestling in
his high school days, but now he focuses on volleyball
and basketball as his athletic exploits.
The fun of the game is sometimes dominated by the
will to win, said Craig Lynch, a senior from the Bronx,
N.Y.
"I
joined intramurals because my friends and
I
wanted the thrill of victory - and a tee shirt," said
Michael Lofaro from Northport, N.Y.
"In 3-on-3 games the guys are more competitive and
take the game really seriously," said Lynch, who also
acts as a referee.
But
for some, fun and friendship is the name of the
game.
"It's
a good way of hanging out with your friends
and working as
a team," said junior Freda Katsetos,
from Stamford, Conn.
For Dave Mayer, a senior from Suffern, N.Y., in-
tramurals
is a great way to meet new people.
"It's a good way to let off some steam and learn
more about the games," said Dave Esser, a junior
from Huntington, N.Y.
With the popularity of the program growing, Lynch
said he hopes to add waterpolo, darts, table tennis and
pool to the spring semester.
With the added events next semester, the intramural
program is expected to grow even further.

Computers and man:
A future together
To many, computers are the greatest innovation of the 20th
Century, but, for some, they are nothing but another machine
that man has to maintain.
Fortunately, these machines are both.
Computers allow us to work faster and more efficiently than
ever before, but we must remember that we are the key. A com-
puter does not function unless we tell it to.
Two weeks ago, 6,000 military and university computing
machines were crippled by a computer "virus" that ran rampant
across the nation.
The "virus" was caused by a Cornell University graduate stu-
dent whose father is a chief scientist at the National Computer
Security Centerin Bethesda, Md. Robert Morris Jr., 23, used what
is referred to as a "back door" to gain entrance to one of the
nation's most powerful computer networks, and then placed his
program into it. The program orders a computer to stop its
primary functions and begin to replicate the "virus" and send
it to other machines.
Morris Jr:•s program affected machines ranging from
M.I.T.
to some military defense units. For a time, government officials
were worried that the "virus" would reach the Cheyenne Moun-
tain computer center in Wyoming -
the site which houses the
nation's defense computers.
Needless to say, computer security experts around the country
are now second-guessing their security systems in an attempt to
keep this from happening again. But what if it does?
The incident of two weeks ago is believed to be the most severe
event of its kind -
and it was pulled off by a 23-year-old college
student.
Another example of this problem occurred on Oct.
30. At ap-
proximately 9:30 p.m., the Marist mainframe system went down
because its "anti-freeze" malfunctioned, forcing the system to
cease operations.
Those people who wanted to use the system were forced to wait
until approximately 12:30 p.m. the next afternoon.

While the Marist mainframe incident is no earth-shattering pro-
blem, it does illustrate what can happen.
Malfunctions in these devices often force the people who de-
pend on them -
in the case of the "virus" incident, the entire
nation -
to suspend operations until the machines can be
corrected.
Election reflections
Even though these machines allow us to store enormous
amounts of information and process that data quickly, they are
hot perfect. Perhaps government officials should realize that these
machines are·jus(that
-
machines.
No, this is not a call for everyone to throw their personal com-
puters out the window, but perhaps we should consider alternate
plans
to
our mechanisms -
not as replacements, but
as a
sort
of back up system.
Even though a "back-up" system may not be convenient or
feasible, it would assure us that
we
would control the machines
rather than the machine controlling itself.
Perhaps Isaac Asimov said it best during his visit to Marist three
weeks ago when he said:
"The future belongs to us and the computer. It's not a matter
of competition but cooperation. Humanity and computers are go-
ing to do many wonderful things -
together."

Thank you
To The Editor:
I would like to take this oppor-
tunity to express my sincere thanks
to the members of the Alpha Chi
Chapter - National Honors Socie-
ty
who devoted their time and ef-
fort at the Freshman Registration
Assistance Seminar held last week.
In particular, I would like to
thank the officers of the chapter:
Bob Higgins, Kim Snyder Knox,
Tonya Sutherland and Trish
Webster for their unlimited en-
thusiasm and ambition. I would
also like to thank our faculty ad-
visor, Dr. William Olson, for his
encouragement and motivation.
Furthermore, I would especially
like to thank mentor Stephanie

strumental to the event's smooth
operation.
Lastly, I would like to thank the
30 freshmen who attended the
seminars. I hope that we offered
you as much assistance and infor-
mation as possible.
In short, I would like to thank
everyone involved in making the
Freshman Registration Assistance
Seminar a success. Hopefully, we
will be able to continue to offer this
service to freshmen in the future.

George Bush didn't really 1Yin

puter virus in the machine that did
the election returns!!! Dukakis
really won by a landslide!!!
Please forgive me -
I'm
desperate. Being a Dukakis sup-
porter, though, I've gotten used to
that feeling.
Yes,
I
have to get used to the fact
that George Herbert Walker Bush
and J. Danforth Quayle will be
president and vice president. As I
sat watching the returns come in,
I tried to think about all the nasty
things
I
could write about the two
of them this week.
But as
I
watched Dukakis' con-
cession speech,
I
realized that as
much as
I
dislike Bush and Quayle
and as much as
I
would like to
make you believe - as I do - that
they are going to lead this country
down the path of destruction, I
think it is more important that we
look at the ramifications of the
choices we made last Tuesday.
This year, voter turnout was
estimated to be the lowest for a
presidential election in
50
years
This is while people are complain-
ing that neither of the candidates
seem presidential.
Well, I've got news for
everybody. The choice we made -
whether it was for Bush or
Dukakis, to vote or not to vote -
we have to live with what we did
or did not do. We all had the op-
portunity to pick who we wanted
for president. If the candidates
were not to our liking, we should
have done something about it.

against Bush, so I voted for the

person with the best chance to beat
him. Even if a person hated both
major candidates, he or she could
have voted for the independent
ticket just to express that. The on-
ly things that NOT voting express-
ed were laziness and stupidity.
But if you are within that group
of the
lazy
and/ or stupid, it is not
too late to do something about it.
I hate George Bush with a passion,
but
I
would rather see someone
supporting George Bush than just
not caring. This country can sur-
vive with those who like Bush and
with those who hate Bush, but it
cannot survive with people who
just don't care.
We have no choice but to care.
George Bush will most likely be
choosing three Supreme Court
justices during his term. Ifhe sticks
to his previous agenda,
that
means
that we could have men sitting on
the Supreme Court ready to over-
turn Roe vs. Wade, Affirmative
Action and other progressive
victories.
Whether that sounds like a good
idea to you or not, you have to be
interested. Believe it or not, George
Bush's presidency is going to have
a profound effect on your life one
way or the other. It is up to you
whether it will be for the better or
the worse.
The night before the election,
ABC's "Nightline"
implored
Americans who had not paid atteµ-
tion to the campaign to stay away
from the polls. They felt it was un-
fair that people who had followed
and cared about the race should
have their votes cancelled out by
people who picked their candidates
like they pick chewing gum. •
. I
agreed, but that time has pass-
ed.
Now
there are no more
chances. Either we act now or we
give up our right to complain about
the way
things
are. America should
be more than just peppermint or
spearmint.

25 years later, memory of
JFK
still shines
by Len KJie and Mike Buckley
Twenty-five years ago, an
American president was killed
while riding through Texas. On
Nov. 22, 1963, John F. Kennedy
was struck down by an assassin. A
quarter of a century later, the
memories and the images of
Camelot continue to fascinate the
American mindset. What was it
about the man that still has the
capacity to affect people today?
It seems somewhat ironic that
young people today have such a
favorable image of a man they
knew close to nothing about.
Perhaps this is because we lack a
charismatic leader in national
politics today and look to the past
for models we only wish existed.
Just like a page-boy in old England
wondering what King Arthur's
Camelot was really like, we too
seem to have a desire to know and
learn about this man who to us on-
ly exists in film clips and history
books.
Kennedy, we are told, had a
presence, an aura,
a
genuine mysti-
que about him. He was able to cap-
tivate and motivate those he was in
contact with. At the time of his
death, he was revered not only in
America, but in just about every
foreign country with which the
•
U.S. had ties. No other president
has ever had such a profound im-
pact on such a vast array of people.
Some would argue that the pain
people felt when he died was only
token grief; the same reaction that
we would feel if any president was
killed. However, he was much
more than a president to most. He
embodied what people wanted to

Wes tips his hat
by Wes Zahnke
Write something positive, Wes.
Why don't you write something
positive for a change?
It's not that I don't want to write
something positive. It's just that
positive things are about as fun as
pouring honey all over your body
and rolling on the beach in July.
Listen, I love Marist College.
I just bad to get that out in the
open and try to put people's minds
to rest concerning my allegiance.
With the rapid rate at which
Marist is growing 0ike bunny rab-
bits), some kinks
in
the machinery
are bound to appear along the
road.
•
I can iive with that, but
sometimes I feel that certain things
go unnoticed for too long and
should be brought to attention.
Let's start with Champagnat.
All of a sudden, the biggest
eyesore on campus has become its
best-looking building, as well as its
focal point.
Hats off, Dennis.
All right, I have to admit that I
shed a few tears when I arrived on
campus and saw that the ugly blue
tiling, installed by the Mid-Hudson
Ugly Blue Tiling Co., was gone.
Essentially it's a new building
that adds much-needed beauty to
the campus.
.
Leo and Sheahan look much bet-
ter too, and I'm glad to see that so-
meone realized that a major
mistake was made years ago.
Diversity. Repeat after me:
Diversity.
Finally, the powers that be are
realizing that the big D word is the
key to success.
•
With freshmen from all over
(and fewer from New York), the
future looks bright.
Now, if they could somehow
eliminate Long Island ....
Next, the Marist Institute for
Public Opinion.
Dr. Miringoff, come on down.
You receive the Golden Fork
Award for putting Marist in the
limelight time after time.
Quite simply, the best poll
around and getting better all the
time.
Let us not forget Mr. Carmine
Porcelli and the fashion design
program.
Once considere'd a joke major in
many quarters, it has becoine one
of the school's most exposed and
"'-credible programs.
a day
in the life
What Mr. Porcelli has done is
taken the program and turned it in-
to a perennial powerhouse, if you
will.
What he hasn't done is hooked
me up with some fashion babes.
Not that they could go out, hav-
ing 8:1S a.m. to 6:00 p.m. classes
and the like. But hey,
keep me
in
mind, Carmine.
It's also-very pleasing to see that
someone was listening and the
bookstore
finally
has good
sweatshirts.
That is, they had good sweat-
·shirts,
until they all sold out.
Gee, peopl~ will spend the extra
buck for quality.
Wow,
a brand new concept.
Let's try and make sure that
there art plenty available before we
go home for Christmas.
They are finally selling cool
shirts. and sweatshirts down in
McCann, too.
Let's also hear it for President
Murray.
The man knows what he is do-
ing, and has quickly transformed
this 98-pound weakling of an in-
stitution into a muscle-flexing,
sand-kicking in the face college.
He is constantly surrounding
himself with very good people who
know how to get the job done.
He has brought us into the
modern world with class and style.
He has made something out of
nothing, and has added quite a bit
of credibility and pizazz to our lit-
tle home on the Hudson.
We are all pioneers of sorts as we
go on our way, blazing paths to
academic excellence and credibility.
We should all be proud that we
go to Marist, buy sweatshirts and
start kicking sand in the faces of
other colleges.
We are good and getting better
every second.
I guess it's more or less like
Europeans trying to learn and im-
prove their basketball games.
We're the Soviets while other
schools are the Americans.
But, you know what?
The Soviets won the gold.

correctly reported the dates of the performances of Little Shop of Hor-

Sunday at 2 p.m.
be - young, intelligent, dynamic,
good-looking, and above all,
spirited. There was so much more
to the man than just the presiden-
cy. From football on the White
House lawn to the often humorous
press conferences, he projected the
so-hard-to come by entity of
likability with style and grace. He
represented, for most ,the all-
American boy, and a part of the
nation's identity died when he died.
To this day, pe<;>ple
who were
alive at the time still remember ex-
actly what they were doing and
where they were when the news of
the assassination first became
public. It was not as if they lost a
leader, but more like a friend. In
talking with some of these people
about his death, an inner sense of
loss is often conveyed. Professor
James Springston commented,
"People were
in
absolute shock.
No one ever expected the reign of
Camelot to end, especially not like
that. It was amazing to see people
who didn't even know one another
hugging and crying in the street."
This statement is not atypical, to
.
those who lived at the time. Ken-
nedy seemed to have an impact
upon all people. There were some
who did not like him, but all were
captivated by him.
It
is comments
and memories like these that have
solidified John Fitzgerald Ken-
nedy's plac~ in the hearts and
minds of all.

Timesheet hassle causes
student paycheck debacle
As a senior, I am very familiar
with the words Financial Aid and
College Work Study Program, as
most individuals attending college
today probably are. Some people
may not be familiar with this con-
cept of Work Study so I would like
to give you the definition of this
program, compliments of our trus-
ty Marist handbook: "The College
Work Study Program (CSWP)
provides job opportunities to
enrolled students who are in need
of earnings to pay part of their
educational expenses. The jobs are
available on or off campus with a
public
or
private nonprofit agency.
CWSP is awarded on the
basis
of
financial
aid."
I happened
to
choose an on-campus job. I have
been employed by Marist Security
for three years as an entry officer,
and like everybody else, on the
scheduled Friday payday I wait in
line to obtain my check.
"What, you don't have a check
for me! Impossible, I signed my
timesheet!" "I'm sorry, you are
going to have to talk to security
about it," replies the woman in the
payroll department. Security's rep-
.
ly, you wonder'? "Oh, no one
handed it in. You'll have to wait
another two weeks. We're sorry."
They're sorry!?! Is that all they
have to say'? Tell me, how is it
possible for half the people who
work at security to obtain their
checks
while
the other half cannot'?
Does Security have a random seleco
_
tion process for whose time sheets
get handed in and whose do not?
UNOfl?.
Not everybody is awarded work
study. Some people are classified
under Campus Employment,
however - jobs are held open for
Work Study candidates
first
because it is a part of financial aid.
If I can make the effort to fill out
the
W-4,
the I-9, get my Work
Study allocation form signed and
handed in to the proper people,
and sign my timesheet before the
deadline, is it too much to ask for
Security to walk 50 paces (if that
much} down the hall and hand in
ALL time sheets to their proper of-
fice'? I'm sure all the full-time
employees of Security
got
paid.

Siouxsie' s eerie 'Peepshow' is hypnotizing
by Mary Stricker
Siouxsie and the Banshees -
they are a band -
not an indian
tribe.
They do not play heavy metal,
which is of course my first criterion
for defining good music.
•
They have a new album called
"Peepshow," which is at the top
of the disco/dance charts and the
college radio charts, according to
Rolling Stone magazine.
Critics say their show at the Or-
pheum Theater in Boston was no
less than a musical masterpiece. I
didn't see it myself because a per-
suasive friend of mine suggested we
pay $7 to partake in a "Joy Divi-
sion" video/dance party instead.
Sometimes my friend is a fool.
If you're familiar with the Ban-
shees past releases, I'm sure you'll
be quite pleased with "Peepshow."
While the band continues with their
eerie almost hypnotic style of music
and vocals, "Peek-a-Boo," the
first single is surprisingly vivacious.
"Burn Up" comes off as a folksy
upbeat frenzy which makes one
think that perhaps the Banshees
have decided it's o.k. to have some
fun -
once in awhile.
For the·most part, however, the
Banshees stick to their expertise,
putting their listeners into an oh so
satisfying tra~ce. It's really an ex-
killing
time
cepuonal high to listen to S1ousxie
Sioux (No, I didn't make that up)
become so absorbed. in her own
voice.
If you listen closely to the lyrics
and take note of the songs' titles,
you will find that the Banshees are
still a bit obsessed with the world
of witchcraft, bones, death etc.
"Raw
Head
and. Bloody
Bones," a symbol believed by
many to instill great fear, is sung
by Siouxsie as if she were a
mechanical doll telling a fairy tale.
The song fades away with the sobs
of a small child.
Even the name of the band has
an eerie superstitious feeling to it.
A banshee is a spirit that comes to
life in the form of a wailing
women.
If
you see the banshee, a
member of your family will soon
die, so they say.
I don't know. I guess a lot of
people may think this
is
pretty sick,
but no matter how evil the lyrics get
or how demonic the music might
be, that eeriness swallows you into
a spiritual ecstasy that you'll never
want to leave.
Actually, Siouxsie would
make,
.
or maybe she already is, a great cult
leader. She and the Banshess do
have a faithful following and the
seductive voice of Siouxsie has
brought many listeners to their
knees. It's true. I've seen it. Her jet
.
black hair which strays from every
angle on her head and her shock-
ingly pale face create a stifling
satanic vision that continues to en-
thrall concert goers.
/
If superstitions· are your thing,
.
get a-hold of this album. If you're
one of those logical, down to earth
folks like myself, get it anyway so
you can open up that mind.

Endowment
for
the
Humanities (NEH) is inviting ap-
plications from college teachers,
professionals at cultural organiza-
tions and independent scholars in
the humanities for an opportunity
to spend next summer with. col-
leagues pursuing advanced study
and research.
A number
of
America's
•
humanities scholars will offer NEH
seminars on 64 different topics at
38
major research universities
across the country. Many seminars
are interdisciplinary, and par-
ticipants need not be specialists in
the particular subject of a seminar.
Twelve participants
in
each
seminar will study such topics as
English Romantic literature and
art American constitutionalism,
philosophical approaches to law,
Beethoven's string quartets, Gothic
architecture, Afrian history and
literature, the influence of Bud-
dhism in China and Japan and
American history.

"This program serves those on
the front lines of, humanities educa-
tion at two- and four-year colleges,
museums, libraries. arid other
cultural institutions,"
.said
Lynne
V.
Cheney, NEH chairperson.
''Year after year, summer seminar
participants have testified to the
value of having the time and op-
portunity to reflect on important
topics and to deepen their
understanding of significant issues
and ideas in the humanities."
Seminar participants, who will
have access to the collections of a
major library or museum, will
discuss a body of common readings
with fellow participants, prepare
written work and pursue individual
research projects.
Several of the seminars offered
in summer 1989 deal with· 19th-
century Romanticism. This subject
was
celebrated last year in the ex-
hibition, "William Wordsworth
and the Age of English Roman-
ticism," which opened at the New
York Public Library and visited
several locations
across the
countrv.

Curtis said that no Angel has

Some time is
all they need
to improve
by Tim Besser
·
·
"This team isn't that good."
"It's just not the same." "These
guys stink."
Those are a few of the comments
I have heard around campus since
the men's basketball team was
beaten 90-67 by Marathon
Oil
in an
exhibition game. The comments
are upsetting.
.
This will be a good basketball
team. Remember,
_
when
the Red
.f.oxes played Marathon they had
only been
practicing for
three
weeks. Marathon is a semi-pro
team. Miro Pecarski has never
played with
anyone on this team
with the exception
of Matt
Schoenfeld. As he gets used to·his
teammates,
his
stats will get
better.
It
·will
take time.
The Red Foxes did look pretty
bad in the second half of that game
on
Nov. 7. They weren't scoring
(3i points
in the second half). They
. didn't shoot well (28.9 percent in
the second half). And they didn't
play very good
defense in the se-
cond half (Marathon
shot
54.1 per-
cent from the field). But they were
trying.
The team is learning entirely new
schemes this year, both offensive-
ly and defensively.
The offense is switching from an
offense revolving around a single
big man in the post, to a motion of-
fense where everyone posts up and
th~ trans~ti_o_n
ga~e_grows in
_im-
portance. It is an extremely dif-
ficult
system to teach; according to
coach Dave Magarity.
When the team gets the new
scheme down it is going to be very
exciting to watch, and a shock to
the conference opponents who are
used to watching Marist come
down the floor intent on getting the
ball inside.
.
Magarity also plans on taking
advantage of the 3-point shooting
ability of some of his players,
which landed Marist 13th in the na-
tion a year ago in 3-point percen-
tage. It will be exciting. Remember
two y~s ago how much fun it was
watchi,ig Billy Donovan and com-
pany from Providence bouncing
team after team from the NCAA
Tournament with 3-point bombs?
The Red Foxes will have a new
look on defense as well. Now teams
are going to have to deal with a
press that showed flashes of being
tough to break against Marathon,
forcing 21 turnovers. That was a
semi-pro team, imagine St. Fran-
cis (Pa.) trying to work around it.
It should be fun to watch teams
struggle.
But Marathon also took advan-
tage of the press several times for
easy layups. That is the danger of
a press, but it should happen less
and Jess as the team gets used to it.
Magarity only put it in four days
before the Marathon game.
There were just 1,707 people in
attendance at the game. And it was
a very quiet 1, 707 people. This
team needs our support, probably
more than last year's right now. It
is time to support the Red Foxes,
and be vocal about it. This team
does not stink.

The women's swimming and div-
ing team continued its early-season
success last week, defeating New
York University 168-133 to im-
prove its mark to 2-0.
Kindra Predmore, Jeanne aeary
and Lisa Burgbacher each had two
victories to lead the Lady Red
Foxes to victory for the second time
in
as
many tries. The latest test for
Marist was last night against SUNY
New Paltz. Results were not
available at press time.
For the second time, sophomore
sensation Predmore was a deciding
•
factor in the meet. Predmore won
the deciding 200 individual medley
with a time of 2:19:84. She also
won the 200 butterfly in 2:20:06.
Cleary was also a key for Marist
as
she captured the
SO
freestyle in
26.86 and swam
a
leg on the winn-
ing 200 medley relay team.
Burgbacher
continued
to
dominate in the diving competi-
tions. She won both the one- and
three-meter events.

The women's volleyball team
is looking forward to recruiting
and the season for next year
after losing all four of its mat-
ches in the Rutgers Tournament
last weekend.
Coach Victor Vancarpels said
he would like to change next
year's schedule, allowing the
team to face opponents with
similar resources.
"We are the Marist College
basketball team playing against
the
NBA,"
said VanCarpels,
referring to many of the mat-
ches played this season.
Marist fell to Vi_lla~ova,
Rutgers and Farleigh Dickinson
in straight games and lost to the·
University of Maryland at
Baltimore in four. They ended
the season with a record of
1S-32.
During the off-season, the
women
will be
playing on a
team in the United States
Volleyball Association which
Vancarpels hopes will develop
their character.
Vancarpels said the team's ef-
fort and practice was good this
year, but they needed to develop
their character
as
a unit to carry
them through the tough times.
"We have had a lot of
maturity and growth," he said.
rust-year coach Rena Paterno is
happy with the way things are go-
ing so far. Even though it is only
the second meet of the year our
swimmers are looking strong, she
said.
The Lady Red Fox~ continue to
show promise as they hope to keep
their undefeated record intact.
Marist's next meet is one of the
toughest on the schedule. On Nov.
29, Marist travels to New Jersey to
Grades--------
• take on Trenton State.

who caught 26 passes for 360 yards
and one touchdown .
Next year, without Flavin, the
Red Foxes will look to Steve
Locicero and Walter Cook who
saw much action this year.
LoCicero had 19 receptions for 225
yards and two touchdowns while
Cook caught 7 passes for 102
yards.
Rushing defense - C
+
Marist's opponents ran the ball
•
this year with almost the same suc-
cess as they did last year - the on-
ly difference is they scored four
fewer touchdowns.
The Red Foxes' defensive line,
one of the team's most inexperienc-
ed positions when the season
started, matured quickly to replace
last year's dominant starters like
Chris Keenan and Larry Cavazza.
This year's line allowed the same
rushing yardage as last year's ex-
perienced line -
a definite
improvement.
Passing defense - B-
of 131.7 yards per game.
This year's pass rush also prov-
ed to be more effective than last
year's, registering 11 sacks com-
pared to only four last season.
Linebacker Stephen Whelan had
four this year and defensive end
Mark Schatteman had three to lead
.
the team.
The passing defense also created
a number of turnovers, intercepting
14 passes. Defensive backs Brian
Cesca and Fred Christensen had
five and four interceptions,
respectively.
Special teams - B
Despite lacking experienced, the
kicking game did not prove to be
a weak link.
Senior John
Woodhour handled 45 of the Red
Foxes' 51 punts, averaging over 34
yards per punt, including a 57-yard
kick against St. John's.
Though the Red Foxes made on-
ly one of the seven field goals they
attempted this year, freshman
Kevin Kerr made 13 of the 14 ex-
tra points
he attempted.

Gridders' year
ends with win
by Jay Reynolds

The Marist soccer team fell·to
Central Connecticut Siate last
week 2-0 to close out its 1988
season.
Marist's final record was 5-11
overall and 0-5 in the Northeast
Conference.
"If
the last game is any in-
dication of how well we can
play, then next year we should
be good," sai<,t
Coach Howard
Goldman.
Goldman said that this was
the-best game Marist had played
all year long, with many of hits
shots hitting the cross bar.
"It
was
a
good game to
watch," said Goldman. "We
played with very good move-
ment. Good passes enabled us
to move down the field. We had
good tactical awareness."
Though Marist's record may
not impress anyone the schedule
should. Marist plays a very
competitive schedule which puts
them up against some of the na-
tions top team, on more than
one occasion.
Fairleigh Dickinson, a con-
ference opponent, has already
made it
past
first-round play in
the NCAA Soccer Toumamcot.
With the bright- spots there
come the dark spots as well and
one dark spot which was to big
was tJte amount of injuries
Marist piled up over the season.
Goldman said that a lot of his
mid-fielders
and forwards
weren't at 100 perecent for most
of the season.
That fact becomes very evi-
dent when seeing that Marist
only scored 23 goals this season.
The end of the season always
brings the end of college
careers, and the soccer team will
be missing five players when it
retakes the field next fall.
Co-captains Tom Haggerty
and Mark Edwards,
both of
whom have been starters all this
year, and Charles Ross will not
return, along with reserves
William, Kenny and Joseph
Benttencourt.
