A legally blind Marist student

struck by a car on the corner of
Route 9 and Fulton Street at the

cording to • Leary, is why the
operator did ,not see her.
"Because the incident occurred
on Route 9 and not on campus, it
is not a security matter and the
police are handling it," said Leary.
The police report was not available
at press time.
This incident was the first-
reported pedestrian action since

by Ed McGarry
The Marist College Community
Service Project, a program that
• provides students with financial aid
in exchange for service in the com-
munity, has begun its second
• semester of operation this fall with·
nearly twice the enrollment.
The project, which
was
establish-
ed by Marist last year in conjunc-
tion with the U.S. Department of
Education, provides students with
a $500 tuition credit in exchange
for a full semester of part-time
ser-
vice with non-profit community
agencies, according to Project
Coordinator
Philip Koshkin.
The program has grown to 25
placements from
12
in the spring of
1987. Of the placements,
22
have
been filled.
Koshkin believes this program is
particularly important in today's
society where the nation's social .
and educational systems are in a:
state of crisis.
"For students, pressures to suc-
ceed fmancially have often resulted
in a heightened sense of isolation
and self-concern and a diminished
awareness of, and commitment to
the problems confronting today's
society," Koshkin said.
The students work an average of

Learning seminar
to be held
The trurd and final session of the
Learning Styles Institute will be
held on Monday. Nov. 21, combin-
ing public high school teachers
from Dutchess, Orange and Ulster
counties with Marist faculty to
study learning patterns.
Martha Cray Andrews, Ph.D.,
will be hosting the seminar that
takes P!ace from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
at Lowell Thomas;
Andrews, from the College of
New Rochelle, specializes in how
the learning styles of a teacher can
affect their efficiency of teaching
students with the same or different
styles of learning.
The first two sessions enabled
the participants to discover their
own learning behaviors and
dis~
how to interact with peo-
ple of different behaviors. The
third session will be a course review
and will
discuss
the problems which
occur once the concepts have been
applied.
Approximately
ten Marist
representatives attended the first
two seminars, according to Donna
Berger, executive assistant
to
the
academic vice president.
The institute is sponsored by the.
Board of Cooperative Educational
Systems in Dutchess, Orange and
Ulster counties in cooperation with
the coJlege. For mote information

grown," he said. "It use to be just
one day in 1964."
"I hope the alumni have a safe
and happy time," he said, "and
use
good judgment."
The registration for alumni
events will be held from 10 a.m. to
S
p.m. on Saturday in the Cham-
pagnat breezeway.
Leary, a native of the Bronx;
calls that accomplishment "one of
his prouder moments," saying it
would have made his father, a
former New York City police of-
ficer, happy.

to Timeron,

team, the New York Giants. "Tex-

However, Leary, at 34, realized
that a college education was
necessary for,further·advancement
in. the force. He took classes at
various SUNY schools· for
eight
y.ean.
During that time.
_Leary
ap-
proached his good friend, Larry
Hughes a crime reporter for the
Poughkeepsie Journal, and asked
him for a recommendation

based on life experience.
Hughes agreed. "Sure, always
glad to give you college kids a
Leary thought that it was time to
come home. His friends and fami-
ly were-happy with the decision.
Three of Leary's four grand-
children and his 93-year-old mother

live in Wappingers Falls. "She is
still the boss," he said.

Hughes, now a columnist and
feature writer for the Poughkeep-
sie Journal, is thrilled his friend is
back.
Hughes recalled a time when
Leary
let him in on a secret about
a major drug raid
so
·Hughes
could
prepare in advance. Hughes asked
to sit in on a briefing with police
officers and Leary agreed. Hughes
believes he became the first
reporter present aJ a pre-raid
briefing.
Nothing's changed in the last 15
years, Hughes is still getting the
scoop on
Leary -
a feature story
about him appeared in Sunday's
Poughkeepsie Journal.
..
"As busy as he was being a cop,
he always appreciated what my
demands were and bad a good
awareness of what was going on
around
him,"
Hughes said,
describing Leary's cooperation
with the media.
Perhaps this awareness keeps
leading Leary to Joe Waters.
"There's no doubt that I'll rim in-·
to him again," Leary said.
Education majors co_pe with tWo campuses
by Molly Ward
Most students may feel attending
classes at Marist is difficult enough,
.
but for psychology/special educa-
tion majors, classes is just one part
of their college experience.
All psychology/special education
majors are required to take five
education courses through a co-op
program at Vassar College. This
semester nine juniors and 12
seniors are making the commute to
The Vassar students are a different
breed,t'
said junior
Kathy
Rondeau.
Others said travelling between
schools is troublesome.
"It is very difficult going back
and forth and working at both
Vassar and Marist's pre-schools,"
said Liz Forese, a junior who is
taking four courses at Vassar. "But
I would never give up the oppor-
tunity to study at both schools."
Tracey Morehead, a junior who
is taking two courses at the school
across town said: "I'm getting so
much out of two colleges at once.
Vassar is a whole other learning
experience."
The students said one main dif-
ference between the schools is that
at Vassar, they are given more pro-
jects and fewer tests.
"There
is not
as much
blackboard instruction at Vassar.
There is more group discussion and
personal opinions," said senior
Nora Condon, who is in her second
year of the program.
Despite the differences and dif-
ficulties, all the students come out
of the program with a sense of ac-
complishment, said Stivers.
"Initially, there is a lot of dif-
ficulty for the students. It is socially
awkward and uncomfortable, but
by the time they begin student
teaching, there's a sense that the
Vassar and the Marist students
endured a shared ordeal," she said.

Janet Stivers, professor of
special education, said Marist
students generally adjust well to the
different atmosphere at V~.

"You have to give these kids
credit. They have to deal with two
sets of faculty, two different
grading standards and, to some
point, two different cultures," she
said.
Some students notice a social dif-
ference between the two schools.
"Marist has such a happy-go-
lucky campus and Vassar doesn't.
Stacy Brown's concern for the
environment and the problem of
garbage disposal has motivated him
to begin a recycling program at
Marist.
Brown, a senior majoring in en-
vironmental science, became in-
volved in environmental issues last
summer when he did an internship
with the Dutchess County Resource
Recovery Agency.
As
a result, Brown said he wants
students to realize the importance
of recycling,
since possible
legislative action would make
recycling a law in New York state.
New York is moving towards a
statewide recycling program to take
effect in 1992.
If students understand that
recycling can improve the environ-
ment by reducing garbage buildup,
they will be more likely to con-
tribute to the school's conservation
effort, Brown said.
The program, which has been
approved by campus officials, will
begin with the collection of
recyclable cans in Sheahan Hall.
After collection cans will brought
to local recycling distributers,
Brown said.
Results of the program's experi-
ment in Sheahan will be reviewed
in about three weeks. If successful,
the program will expand to other
dorms then to the entire campus,
Brown said.
Tentative approval has also been
given to· a paper recycling plan.
This program will begin in the
Computer Center ~use

amount of wasted recyclable paper.

Cafeteria wages war
against slobs, waste
by Nathan Robinson.
Crumpled napkins, half-eaten dinner entrees and
dirty glasses litter the tables. Spilt milk and soda make
• puddles on the floor. No, this is not the scene follow-
ing the foQd fight in "Animal Hol!.se.". It's just an
average day in the Marist cafeteria.



I:.ack of concern for poiicy is leaving the cafeteria
"trashed" after lunch and dinner meals, according
Dan Lewis, food service director.
The major cause of this problem is that students do
not return their trays to the washing area after they
use them, said Lewis.
According to Lewis, 300 of the 1238 students using
the cafeteria for each meal leave the trays at their
tables, which results in an unclean appearance. This
makes it unpleasant for those people who eat after
them, he said.
In addition to the cafeteria's appearance being
undesirable, other problems arise when the students
neglect to return their trays.
By leaving their trays, students force Seiler's
employees to take nearly two hours after every meal
to clean the cafeteria and make it fit for use when the
next meal begins, according to Lewis. Seiler's provides
food services for Marist.
It takes workers until 3:30 p.m. or 4 p.m. to clean-
up after lunch which nearly coincides with the 4:15
dinner, said Lewis. In one situation, more than eight
hours were needed to clean the cafeteria after student
use.
Many ideas have been used to curb the problem.

the busing window was one attempt that-seemed to
work. The ice cream bar was also removed in an ef-
fort to keep the cafeteria cleaner.
Lewis said that he is opposed to both these policies
although the ticket rule seemed to be effective.
Opinion varies as to the origin of the problem.
"Half of the people that eat here are just lazy,'' said
Gary Cote, a Seiler's employee.
Michelle Edwards, a student who uses the cafeteria
everyday, disagrees:
"I
pay
enough
w

w
this
school, I think they should be able to afford to have
people bus our tables."
"I think people should be more respectful of their
cafeteria," said freshman Jerry Robedee of the
situation.
According to cafeteria-user Ken Gage, a chain reac-
tion is the cause of the cafeteria's problems.
"One person leaves their tray on the table, then
everybody else just leaves their tray," he said.
Lewis said he is open to any ideas that anyone has
to make the cafeteria a better place
to
eat.
Cote suggested that the students who don't return
their trays should not be fed.
But Lewis doesn't want to go that far.
"I'm not asking for miracles," he said, "basically
what I'm asking for is (students) to bring their trays
back to the busing windcl\v,."

Education is key

AIDS
Acquired Immunodefiency Syndrome.
Because of the affect this disease has on the human immune
system and the number of people who are infected by it, These
three words have become the focus of many specialists in the
health services field in recent years. But no cure has been found.
Since the first reported cases of AIDS emerged in 1981, more
than 23,000 people have succumbed to the disease. One estimate,
as reported by Newsweek magazine, puts the body cpunt at
179,000 by 1991. Right now, the Center for Disease Control in
Atlanta, Ga., estimates that 1.S million Americans are infected
by the AIDS virus.
While doctors and scientists continue to research and experi-
ment, the general public must protect itself. According to the
United States Surgeon General C. Everett Koop, the best way to
fight AIDS is to become educated about it.
It
is too bad we don't listen to him.
Health Services, the Social Work club and Campus Ministry
co-sponsored a lecture last Thursday that dealt with the subject
of AIDS. One of the guest speakers was afflicted with the disease
and told of its affect on him and his life.
But only 70 people -
out of the more than 3,000 members of
th~ Marist community -
attended the lecture. How
can
we ex-
pect to learn about the decade's deadliest virus if we do not take
the time to listen: to a person afflicted it?
According to state Health Department estimates, one out of
every IO mid-Hudson residents being tested for AIDS has been
infected by the disease. That includes residents of Dutchess County
-
the area we reside in for nine months out of the year.
What does it take for people to realize the danger this illness
presents. Researchers predict that AIDS will become the No. 1
kilier of college students by 1991. Can we afford not to listen?
.../tonight, another meeting concerning AIDS is being.held on-
campus. This affords us another opportunity to learn about this
pestilence of the blood.

It is time we started learning about AIDS -
before we run out
of time.

To the editor:
It was a typical Saturday night,
as my friends and I headed for
Renaissance,
one of the better local
bars, for a good time. But
September 23rd was not a typical
night in Renaissance, and we did
not have a good time. ·Not five
minutes after we showed our ID
and squished in, someone started
a fight. Someone took it upon
themselves to ruin everyone's night
because of their own stupidity and
insecurities. This may, have been a
typical night at another local bar
but not at Renaissance - and we
would like to keep it that way.
I could bore everyone with the

we all have our own version, don't

friend of mine,· someone who has
never started a fight or thrown a
punch his past three years at
Marist, was involuntarily involved
-
but luckily didn't get hurt. I
have always been repulsed by some
people's ability to actually build up
enough hatred in a matter of
minutes to want to physically harm
someone, maybe permanently,
because they stepped on their foot
or spilled a drink on them. So it
really blows my mind that "tough"

Special ed students ask for a little respect
by Carol-Ann Catucci and
Gina Iacobelli

We often wonder why we are
majoring in a field that will keep
us in school forever. Why have we
allowed our alarm clocks to stay in-
tact even after blaring out at 6:30
a.m. every morning? Is it that we
enjoy our 30 minute hike to our
daily destination? Or is it because
we are simply anxious to greet 30
children's curious and questioning
minds?
Being psychology/special educa-
tion major at Marist involves more
than just completing our CORE
and field classes, classroom atten-
dance, a mid-terin and final ex-
aminations. It involves student
teaching requirements which oc-

cupy a minimum of seven hours a
day of
direct
classroom instruction.
Where does this instruction come
from? It comes from our· many
grueling hours of planning and
preparation.
In response to an article dealing
with the listed major cum indices
that appeared in The Circle at the
close of last semester, the common
"buzz" was that the reason educa-
tion majors ranked above average
was because we have it easy.
"So, how hard can it be to sing
to kids?" questioned a mutual
friend.
Well my friend, you learn the
theories and apply them to every-
day classroom instruction. You
watch confused eyes glaring at you
and find a better way to clarify

your point. You act as a role model
for so many children.
Easy? Not true.
The students in the special ed
major succeed because of many
reasons; We attend both Marist
and Vassar College classes. From
both sets of professors and super-
visors, we receive an incredible
amount of support, let alone diver-
sity in teaching
styles and
philosophies. With this, we have
become well-rounded and unbias-
ed in working with many types of
children from varied backgrounds.
To survive in this major, one
must meet the necessary re-
quirements: a minimum G.P .A. of
3.0 in our major field, a 2.5 overall,
30 hours of field work, a total of
124 academic credits for gradua-
tion and a passing score on the Na-
tional Teachers Examination.
Completion
of
these re-
quirements enables us to attend the
Vassar
classes
as
well as to continue
in the program. Presently, there are
11 seniors who have succeeded thus
far who are hoping to obtain their
state certification in both elemen-
tary/ special education
upon
graduation.
As far as a social life - what's
that? With the long hours we put
in as teachers every day, studying
for class and planning for the days
ahead, there is not enough time in
the day for socializing.
Believe us! It is hard to sit home
on a Friday while all of your
housemates stumble in after
galavanting at. Berties.
Can you believe that we have
been at school for four weekends
and, as seniors, have only been able
to attend happy hour once - now
that's sad!
Now that we've touched on these
aspects of the psych/special ed ma-
jor, we would like to relay a
message to those underclassmen
struggling in this field now.
Don't be discouraged!
Why are we still in this field?
Simply because we love what we
do! In our eyes, the best things
about teaching are not June, July
and August, but knowing a student
has learned from our instruction.
That is what keeps us inspired.

It kind of reminds me of
something else no one knew about:
Steve Bargonetti and his wonder-

Nope, wrong, guess again.

- Before
I
continue, a question. Is
my constant changing of the sub-
ject confusing you? Too bad.
So, anyway, the band played
some very funky material where
Diane, Bargonetti's babe, I believe,
would do these wonderful voice-
overs
in
the
beginning
that went
something like this.
"The ancient city of Atlantis was
a mystical place where people com-
municated through headbands.
This· next tune is a wonderful
original Bargonetti piece about the
harmonic convergence of Jimmy
Hendrix and Janis Joplin while
they speak this way."
I'm not lying .... really. Sure the
voice-overs were weird and only six
people were there but, hey, they
were amazing. Bargonetti just did
run after run and scale after scale.
The bassist flew and the drummer
had a beautiful solo at the very end •
of the first set. Amazing.
It was kind of sad though. Six
people. Six dollars. You know a
band like that cost over $1,000 as
a source close to the safe combina-
tion told me.
I
mean, as Bargonet-
ti jammed away and Diane mumbl-
ed about space and life, a different
band entirely wearing tuxedos and
playing that smooth dance jazz
played downstairs in the cafeteria.
If this isn't over scheduling, try
this.
At
the same
time, Diane told
us about crystal spiders that mar-
ried on Mars and the tuxedos broke
for a wonderful Seiler's meal, a
comedian was entertaining the
throngs in that hotbed of activity,
the River Room.
What's happening here?
A
little
miscommunication perhaps? Hey,
I didn't even know Bargonetti was
playing until Saturday afternoon
and those other things never even
entered my spectral reasoning as
Diane would say. Don't think the
students don't want bands on
cam-
pus. It would just be nice if we
knew about them.
So, hey, you're saying let's not
. get too deep here, we'll leave that
to the classroom. (And to that I

morals. Let's just set a viewpoint.
After all, that is what this article
is, right?
My viewpoint is ... hmmm ... let's

is
that maybe,
just maybe, the College Activities

Pair to ·be-crowned
at Medi<:val
Banquet
by Kim Snyder Knox
A professor and his wife will be
crowned king and queen of "The
Land of Peace and Love" at the
seventh annual Medieval Banquet
sponsored by the Marist College
Singers.
In addition 'to the coronation,
the banquet, scheduled for Oct. 30,
will feature authentic medieval·
food, song, drama, and dance.
Wesley Nilson, assistant pro-
fessor of business, and his wife,
Sherrill Meyers-Nilson,
were
selected by the singers last spring
to be the banquet's royal couple.
Wesley Nilson has aided the
chorus by recording "every concert
we have done for a year," said
Dorothy Ann Davis, director of
musical activities.
Nilson, an audio recording en-
thusiast, said that he doesn't sing
or play an instrument, but he said
taping concerts was "the one con-
tribution I thought I could make."
Banquets are an ancient tradi-
tion, said Davis. "The idea of
felJowship and food has been a part
of man since man was created,"
she said.
The banquet menu wiU feature
medieval
foods
including
Mushrooms and Leeks, a favorite
dish of England's King Richard II.
The recipes and ingredients will
all be authentic, said Davis, who is
working on a doctoral dissertation
on the subject of the meaieval
period.
The banquet will be prepared by
the colJege dining service, said
Davis.The evening's music will in-
clude a performance by the singers
of John Rutter's "The Banquet
Fugue," a song which captures the
sounds of a feast.
Other music
will
be provided by
a brass ensemble. and by Col.
William McIntosh; a lute player •
who teaches English at the United
States Military Academy at West
Point and at Marist's Green Haven
• Correctional Facility program.
The banquet will also feature the
premiere of an original play by
Gerard Cox, dean • for student-
affairs.
Davis said that the play_ Cox
writes for the banquet each year is
similar to a medieval morality play
but has "contemporary morals."
Dancers, jugglers, and jesters
.will also entertain diners during the
three-hour medieval oa2eant.

Professors are no-shows
at. communication social -
by
Karen Goettler
Some 40 communication arts
students showed up. for a recent
faculty-student social only to find
that no faculty members were pre-
sent,
according
to Stucfent
Academic Committee President
Tom Kalament.

Kalament, a sophomore from
Amsterdam, N.Y., said that he put
invitations in the mailboxes of 15
full-time faculty members in the
communication atts department
before the SAC-sponsored event on
Sept. 20.
Kalament said he handed an in-
vitation to Dr. Jeptha Lanning,
divisional chairperson, and
saw
him mark the date on his calendar.
Lanning said he remembered
Kalament giving him the invitation
and did plan on attending, but had
to attend a reception and a meeting
with two new faculty members that
afternoon.
In the beginning of the semester
there are so many different things
going on that some events like this
get lost in the shuffle, Lanning
said.
Approximately forty students at-
tended the social in the Fireside
Lounge,
outnumbering
the
students at last year's social. Kala-
ment and other SAC members tried
to locate faculty members during
the social, but were unsuccessful.
"They were wondering where the·
faculty were and I didn't have
an
answer for them," he said.
Deborah Bell, a college ad-
ministrator who works closely with
the
SAC,
was present at the social,
according to Kalament.
Approximately $160 was spent
on refreshments, according to
Kalament, and there was a lot left
over.
He said this social was thrown
together in a hurry, but in the
future he.is planning to write let-
ters to the divisional chairpersons
to improve the situation and hopes
to have socials for other majors.
Lanning said he thinks that in
the future a student leader of a
group should make an appoint-
meat to talk with him about a par-
ticular event.
. "That would have a way of rein-
forcing in my mind and perhaps
spark an
interest
in the faculty," he
said.
Other communication
arts
facul-
ty members also said they were
unable to attend because of
previous commitments.
Professor Paul DelColle said
that he got the invitation two days
before
the social and had
something else to do that day.
"I'm really sorry that I couldn't
:go," DelColle said.
"We blew it," said Professor
James Springston. "When the
students reach out to the faculty we
should be there."
Springston, advisor to the ~arist
debate team, said be could not at-
tend because it was the day of the
British debate.
Professor Sue Lawrence said she
didn't think she got an invitation,
but she heard about the
social
when
she
was
in the division secretary's
office and someone called about it. .

Although the library budget is
the same every year, the actual an-
nual cost has
been
between $45,000
and $52,000 and was permitted due
to special allowances that aren't
available this year.
"I've had to make changes

I've been given," said McGinty.
• The

students on the library
staff had their total hours cut from

The Library now closes

However, during midterms and

Positive changes have
been

and will continue to be made at The

will
be expanded, he
said.

This past Sunday showed the

Giants:
: The Jets, and coach Joe
Walton, blew a shot at winning
their game with Kansas City
With a fumble in overtime. The
Giants, not playing up to par,
still managed to hold on and
defeat the Redskins 24-23.
It is the difference between
the two teams.
With the ball on the Kansas
City 15, Walton and the Jets

goal. try that, · if successful,
• would have. given the Jets a
20-17 victory. From the 15,
Leahy would have been attemp-
ting a 32-yard field goal. Leahy

: rarely misses field goals of less.
-: than 40 yards.
By having Freeman McNeil
run the ball the Jets were hop-
ing to center it to make the field
goal a little bit easier .. Nonsense.
If Leahy ·cao•t make a field goal
from a hash mark 32 yards
away he doesn't deserve the be
in the National
Football
'League.
True, Leahy had missed a
field goal earlier in the overtime
period, but the rain he was kick-
• ing in had let up considerably
and he was 10 yards closer.
McNeil was stripped of the
ball by the Chiefs' Mike Bell
• and when the Chiefs, recovered
the Jets had succeeded in play-
ing themselves into a tie.
With the tie, the Jets slipped
to second place in the American
Conference East, behind the 4-1
Buffalo Bills.
After the Jets

the season by being .
routed by New England 3-1-1 is
good, but ~1 would. have put
• them in a much better position ..
After the game chants of
"Joe must go" could be heard
inside Giants Stadium. Several
Jets, among them tight end
Mickey Shuler, took exception
to the chants and defended their
coach and his decision.
The decision is indefensible.
There was no need to center the
ball or get it closer than the
15-yard line. It was an error; an
error for which Joe Walton
deserves the blame. McNeil said
after the game that he cost the
Jets a victory. He was wrong.
Joe Walton, the ultimate teflon
coach, cost the Jets that victory.
The fans were right. Joe must
go.

,
The Giants on the other hand
held on for a crucial victory
over division-rival Washington.
By defeating the 'Skins the
Giants took over sole position
of first place in the National
Conference East. The victory
also give the Giants the advan-
tage should they finish tied with
the Redskins, since it is their se-
cond. victory over Washington
this season.
The Giants started the day
without wide receiver Mark In-
gram, a· second-year man who
was coming into his own. He
'had broken his collarbone
against the Rams a week earlier.
So Odessa Turner stepped for-
ward and caught eight passes
for 103 yards before being in-
jured himself in the third
quarter.
With Karl Nelson on injured
reserved and John Elliott unable
to do the job, Doug Risenberg
stepped in at right offensive
tackle and did a fairly good job
of controlling the Redskins'
Charles Mann~ one of the best
defensive lineman in the game.
When the Giants are in a
tough situation they seem to
suck it up. When the Jets are in

Running Red Foxes
have dismal.shoWing
by Kevin St.Onge
The men's and women's cross
country teams had an off weekend
as the grass and dirt roads of Le-
Moyne College coupled with hot,
humid 80-degree weather slowed
down the running Red Foxes.
The women placed eigth with the
top Marist runner, Sue Brose
finishing 30th in a time of 21
minutes, 18 seconds. Fielding a full
team of five runners, for only the
third time this year, coach
Maryanne Ceriello had little to say
about her teams performance,
"It
was not one of our best days."
Scott Kendall again was the top
runner for the men but he was also
slowed by the unseasonable condi-
tions. Kendall place 21st with an
uncharacteristic time of 29:25.
Coach Rich Stevens expressed
some concern, "Scott was not that
far off his usual performance but
there were some nutritional dif-
ficulties the night before that af-
fected the whole team.
Stevens also indicated that this
meet was a step up in competition
from the three previous meets.
"We faced all teams that we have
not run against this year and they
were all good caliber clubs but we
are capable of running better, our
training has indicated that and next
week will be a great test." .
Next week they will race in the
Paul Short Invitational. The meet
is· expected to attract the top
NCAA division I runners from
across the nation. "Next week we
will find out just where we are in
terms of our training. The injury
plague is just · about over but
everyone is getting sick. If we can
stay healthy, the Paul Short will be
an excellent gauge for the rest of
the season.'' said Stevens.
The women will race at the
Lehigh University invitational
Saturday. Race time is 11 :00 a.m.
Trish Webster was the second
finisher for the women's team last
weekend, crossing the line in 23:17.
Megan Bell was next in 23:18;
followed by Katie Kean (25:55) and
Jessica Valenti (26: 15).
Sean Gorman was second for the
men in 30:47, followed by Kevin
Brennan, (31:09), Mike Coakley
(31:31), Jason Vianese (33:12),
Randy Giaquinto (34:04) and Peter
A.ntes (34: 16).

by Carrie Boyle
The intramural sports program
is introducing field hockey for
women, according . ._to
Bob Lynch~.
assistant
director of college
. activities.
Beth Lucier, a transfer student
from Mitchell College in New Lon-
don, Conn., initiated the idea of
women's field hockey.
Lucier's .love for fjeld hockey
dates back to when she-began play-
ing in eighth grad~ and has come
to a temporary halt after playing
for the team at Mitchell for two •
years.
"It's not fall without field
hockey. Field hockey and fall go
hand in hand.
I
was determined to
get it started," said Lucier.
Lucier says that when she was
looking through
the Marist
. viewbook, • field hockey wasn't
listed. When she came for orienta-
tion, she remembered hearing that
if the school didn't have anything
that she was interested in, to start
something. And that's exactly what
she did.
On her first day at Marist, Lucier
said that she went to Bob Lynch
and asked if Marist had a field
hockey team. Lynch told her no.
When the intramural surveys were
distributed, students had to specify
which sports they were most in-
terested in. Sure enough, Lucier in-
dicated field hockey. From that
point on, she has been working
with Lynch to get the ball rolling.
Lynch remains optomistic. He
bas informed Lucier that the school
bas some of the equipment that the
women need, such as sticks, balls
and
goalie
equipment.
Lynch invites all women to.par-
ticipate in playing field hockey. He
and Lucier are setting up schedules
for conditioning.
"Some day I'd like it to be an in-
tercollegiate sport," said Lucier.
However, in the meantime,
Lucier's short time goal for the fall
is to get a bunch of girls together
to play and practice and then in the
spring to become a cluo.
Lynch shares .the same goals as
Lucier does, and said, "Let's see
what happens with the interest and
the committment that's going to be
needed to see if it could eventually
become a club sport.''
Several women have shown in-
terest in playing.
_

"I played two years in high
school. When I came up here, it
. upset me that Marist didn't have
field hockey. Now I'm psyched
that • someone finally got it
started," said sophomore, Ann
Prentiss from Patchogue, N.Y.
Stephanie
Gionfriddo,
a
sophmore
from . Newington,
Conn., said, "I played for four
years in high school. Last year I
tried to get a group of ftjends to
play, but nothing came of it. Now
I'm grateful that we've started.".
. Women thafhave never played·
are taking an interest in the sport
as well.
• ''My sister was really into to field
hockey. I wish
I
had started earlier.
I'm willing to give it a chance. We
need more womens' sports here,"
said Jean Krokus, from Norwood
N.J. -

The lack of womens' involve- -
ment in intramurals is of concern '
to sophomore Cheryl Briganti who
said, "I was interested because
Marist has no other' primarily
womens' sports. My friends from
home played and so did my room-
mate, so
I
thought I'd give it a
try."
"We don't want to make it a
club sport for one semester, we
want something that's going to
last," said Lynch.
Netters
off
to rough start
by Chris Shea
The men's tennis program has
gotten off to a rocky start this fall.
the team began the season
without a coach as George
Dioguardo le(t his position as head
coach to find other employment.
Gerry Breen, who was head tennis
coach at Marist three seasons ago,
has temporarily taken the position.
Marist is also playing without
Max Sandmier, last season's top
player who was unable to play due
to
a heavy course
load.
Due to the coaching <11mcumes,
the team is playing an abbreviated
schedule. The team has played on-
ly two matches.
The first match on September 15
pitted the Red Foxes against Siena.
Marist lost 6-3.
Sophomores Jim Cagney, Stan
Phelps, and Chris Trieste each won
their singles match. On Sept.
2i)
the
team travelled to face powerful
Farleigh Dickenson. Marist was
shut out 9-0 by the defending con•
ference champs.

The Marist football team
travels to Siena Saturday look-
ing for its second win of the
season after dropping a 21-7
decision to Fairleigh Dickinson
University-Madison last week.
The Red Foxes (1-2) will at-
tempt to even their record
against Siena (1-3), which lost
28-6 at St. John Fisher last
Saturday.
Siena switched from a club
team to Division III this year
following last year's 3-7 finish.
In the 15 meetings between
Marist and Siena, Marist has
won 12 times, including a 33-0
shutout last year.
Though the Red. Foxes are
1-2, coach Mike Malet is op-
timistic about the future.
"We,are only three games in-
to the season and the two games
we've lost (FDU, Pace) have
been to two good football
teams," he said. "We are still
a good team."

Running back Kelly Stroman
SC()l'ed
Marist's only touchdown
• • -against the Jersey Devils with a
I-yard-plunge with 3:30 left in
the first quarter. Kevin Kerr's
extra point tied the score at
7.
The touchdown capped a
65-yard drive which was mark-
ed by quarteback
Jason
Thomas' 34-yard pass to wide
. receiver Tom Flavin and two
_FDU penalties.
Against FDU, Marist was
plagued by t.Ul'!!_ovei,:s
and a con-
troversial call by the officials in
the fourth quarter.
With the first down marker
inside the 1-yard line, Stroman
• ran the ball on fourth down and
less than 2 yards to go. The of-
ficials ruled that he did not
reach the end zone or the first
down marker.
"I think the officials blew the
spot (where the ball was mark-
ed)," Malet said. "It should
have been a
iirst
down inside the
1-yard line or a touchdown.
If
we had scored, it would have
been 21-14 with over four
minutes left."
While the Jersey Devils had
four turnovers, the Red Foxes
had seven of their own -
one •
of which led to a Devils'
touchdown.
"We have to eliminate the
turnovers -
it's as simple as
that," Malet said. "They stop-
ped
two potential scoring drives
and in.a game like this you can't
do that."
The Marist offense gained
254 total yards, led by Thomas
who completed 11 of his 29
passes for 166 yards. Stroman
rushed 15 times for 43 yards and
Alberto Ares carried nine times
for 26 yards.
Leading the defense were
linebackers Stephen Whelan
and Joe Hagan who had nine
tactles each. Defensive back
Brian Cesca had seven tackles
and one interception and defen-
sive back Fred Christensen had
two interceptions in the losing
effort.

"Defensively, we played well
most of the time," Malet said.
"In two instances_we got a lit-
tle sloppy and it cost us."
With junior running back
Dan McElduff out at least two
more weeks with a sprained
knee, the lack of experience on
the offense has also taken its
toll, according to Malet.
"Alberto
(Ares)
is doing a
great job, but we're talking
about a lot of freshman and
sophomore kids and they are
going to make mistakes," Malet
said.
r
• Quarterback
Mark
Roedelbronn led the Devils' of-
fense with 126 yards passing.
Running back Bob Toole car-
rieq nine times for 72 yards and
tailback Mike Pierre had 62
yards on 16 carries.
Leading the defense for FDU
was defensive back Aaron Veres
who had three interceptions.
New strategy coming
for volleyball squad
by Denise B. Becker
Victor VanCarpels, women's
volleyball coach, has decided to .
alter the strategies and positions on
offense and defense after the team
lost five of its six matches.
The team suffered losses to the
_ University of Connecticut, Colga,te
and Fairfield in the University of
Connecticut Tournament this past
weekend, and fell to Queens Col-
lege last Wednesday. The team's
overall record is 2-12.
Queens College defeated Marist
in the McCann Center in straight
games l~-12,
15-8, 15-3.
Some players offer no excuses
for the team's poor showing but
wish that Marist would provide col-
lege level referees.
"Even though we need work,
and we're not playing our best,
we're getting hurt by the referees
and their calls," said Nancy
McAllister, a sophomore. "We're
Division I, we should be getting de-
cent refs and instead we're getting
high school refs."
VanCarpels plans to revise the
entire game strategy. The girls will
use a multiple offense where dif-
ferent types of sets will be mixed
in an attempt to cut down on the
number of blocks and catch the op-
ponent out of position, according
to
Terri
Covello, a sophomore mid-
dle hitter.
Allison Vallinino and
Kim
An-
drews, when playing in the front
. row, will receive 80 percent of the
sets, the remainder will go to the
center or the weakside hitter, said
Covello.
Sophomore Tom Hannah from
Westfield, N.J., coached the team
in the Queens match because Van-
Carpels was unable to attend.
"The team needs more move-
ment on defense, a quicker transi-
tion and to recognil.e the clinks and
hits," said Hannah.
