cidents, fires and nuclear attack.
• ·_
Here are some general emergen-
cy guidelines:
..,:..
Keep calm. In many emergen-
cies, people have been· killed
because they acted thoughtlessly or

·
did riot act-at all. A clear head may·
mean the difference between life
and death.
.
.
.
• - Learn yoµr community's war~
ning signals;
•.
Some communities
have outdoor warning systems such
as sirens, horns. or other devices.
These are used if the United States
is under attack. Find out what they
are and what to do if you hear
them;
--: If a major storm or other
peacetime disaster threatens, keep
your radio or television on to hear
weather forecasts. •
.

-
Don't use your· telephone
unless absolutely necessary. Th~
lines should be kept clear for
emergency calls.
:
-: Keep enough food

and
medical supplies in your home to
last at least a week. The most im-
portant items to· have are bottled
water, canned or packaged goods,
a first aid kit, blankets, flashlights
and a battery-powered radio ..
- Use extreme caution in enter-
ing buildings that may have been
weakened_ or damaged by the
disaster.

-
Stay away from fallen or
damaged electrical wires.
.
-
Stay away from disaster
areas. Sightseeing could interfere
with first aid or rescue work, and
may be dangerous as well.
- Don't drive unless necessary.
- Follow rhe advice and instruc-
tions of your local government.

Bell said.
The.building will be more con-
ducive for students to meet in
socially,
said Sister
Eileen
Halloran, director of campus
ministry.
The Personal
Development
Center will allow each of the three
areas to expand its services. Accor-
ding to Sister Eileen, the additional
office space will allow the executive
officers of campus ministry to post
office hours to meet with students
as peer ministers. Also, the access
to cooking facilities will allow for
• more socials where groups can
share. meals.
Health Services will benefit
mostly from the extra space that it
is being provided with, according
to Jane O'Brien, director of health
services.
"The waiting area where we are
now is inadequate~ it's too small,"
said O'Brien. "As far as passing in-
fectious illnesses, it's very easy with
the small waiting area. The waiting
area will be larger once we move.''
According to O'Brien, once she
acquires the larger area, she plans
to
bring in a family nurse practi-
tioner once a week initially to of-
fer counseling or gynecological ser-
vices for the female students.
Counseling Se~vices will be pro-
vided with more privacy and ap:
propriate professional counseling
space, said Amato.

Funeral services were held last
--
Saturday for Brother NoeJ
' Smith, a full-time -student in
Marises computer science pro-

• of mathematics, who died. Sept.

,.
18 at St. Francis Hospital;

Smith, 54, collapsed while
teaching a
4:
l
O
class in Donnelly
Hall .. Efforts by stuqents and
emergency personnel to revive
him were unsuccessful.
Smith, who lived in Heritage
· Garden
Apartments - in
· · Poughkeepsie, was on sab-
batical from St. Anthony's
School in South Huntington,
N.Y~,
where he taught for 20
years. He also taught at the St.
Francis Preparatory School in
Brooklyn for ten years.
He was born May 26, 1931,
in Brooklyn, the son of the late
Gerald Smith and Catherine
Mahoney Smith of North
Babylon, N.Y. A Franciscan
brother, he received a bachelor
r
of science degree at Fordham
; University:in .the Bronx ... - ,: ..
Brya~, Maloney, director of
alumni affairs and a one-tiine.•·
student of Smith's. at St. An~
. thony's, called Smith "a master
teacher.'? •
':-"It's. a tremendous loss for
both Marist and • St. An-
thony's,"
. ·Maloney• said.
"There was nothing he couldn't
teach. When he taught math, he
. applied it to
,
so many other
things. He showed a greater
dedication to his students than
any teacher I've ever had.''
James Daly, vice president of
admissions and enrollment call-
ed Smith's death "a tremendous
loss.'' Daly, who· graduated
from St.· Anthony's in 1968
knew Smith for about 20 years.
He added, C'I feel a personal
loss-he was a friend of mine.
It seems ironic that a man who
was such a wonderful teacher
died in the classroom.''
In addition to his mother,
Smith is survived by a brother,
David Smith of North Babvlon.

.Even. daytime guests. of Marist
stud~nts living in college _housing
• _must now be registered with the
housing office, according to anew
college policy.
The policy, which was finalized
last week, requires all guests other
than a student's parents to obtain
a. pass regardless of the -timing of

.. th~ir stay·. Housing Director Steve
Sansola-said the policy is exactly
the same as last year in terms of a·
student's responsibility for guests.
The difference, he said, is only in
the concentration of time.
Two types of passes are now
.~vailable. The day pass, which may
be obtained Monday through Fri-
day between 9:00 a.m. and 4:00
p.m. at the Housing Office, allows
guests visiting privileges for a
specific day until 11 :00 p.m. The
visitation policy is listed on page 31
in the 1985-86 Marist Student
Handbook.
Theweekend overnight pass lets
guests stay for a specific weekend
up to a maximum three days and
two nights, and may be obtained
Friday between 2:00 p.m. and 4:30
p.m. at the desk in the breezeway
connecting Champagnat Hall and
the Campus Center. Weekend
passes may also be picked up on
Saturday between noon and
1
:00
p.m. from the residence director
(RD)
on duty.
Students can find out which RD

ing the bulletin boards in the dor-
mitory's lobby or by the Housing
Office or by contacting a resident

MCTV expands programming
by Kathy
Turner
Marist
College
Television
(MCTV) is growing in fresh ideas,
student participation and equip-
ment, but not in room to work, ac-
cording to Chris Lezny, MCTV
general manager.
!\'ICTV currently airs programs
on
Channel
8
Mondays,
Wednesdays, Thursdays and Sun-
days from 7-9 p.m. Eventually, the
club plans to also begin airing news
programs on Thursdays during free
slot.
According to Lezny, a video
dating service has been approved.
He said it will
be
used as a fund
raiser for the club. The club has
already
begun
encouraging
students to s~gn up.
"We hope to start a monthly
comedy show as well," Lezny·said.
It will be similar to the Saturday
Night Live Show, including jokes
and skits, he added.
By Oct. I, the club will
be
putting
out a weekly T. V. guide to keep
students informed of upcoming
programs, Lezny said.
The club currently has 47
members, with another 100 in-
terested in becoming involved, Lez-
ny said. The staff includes 10 peo-
ple filming sporting events, a news
staff of 20 members and 10
reporters working on free-lance
projects.
>'
Lezny added that MCTV tapes
all events on campus and that any
club or student
who needs
something taped can have it ar-
ranged at a "reasonable" price.
Last year members of the club
raped a performance for Funhole,
a local band comprising present
and former Marist students.
MCTV recently purchased a
television monitor valued at $400.
The club already owns two com-
plete camera sysiems worth over
$2000 each and an audio mixer, in-
cluding two microphones and two
head sets, worth $500, Lezny said.
The club's biggest problem, Lez-
ny said, is lack of space ... We are
literally working out of two metal
cabinets," he said, .. and we don't
even have a key to the room."
Lezny said he hopes the club is
allotted space in Marist East. "It's
difficult to expand and carry out
new ideas without a place to
work," he said.

To the Editor:
.
I would like to respond to your
editorial entitled "Is it too late?"
which appeared in last week's issue
.
of the Circle.

25, 1985, one· year in advance of
their commencement exercises..

,
."·.a
.
.
I'd like to clarify the facts. The
college administration has made a
concerted effort in the last two

years to improve and expedite the
process of selecting commencement
speakers. The college administra-
tion has also actively pursued the
first choice speakers suggested by
the students.
The process to
.select
the 1985
commencement speaker was begun
11 months prior to commence-
ment. In June, the office of college
advancement
compiled
a
preliminary
list of potential
-speakers;
On September 13; 1984,
·
when the students were back on
campus, a formal meeting was held
with the commencement speaker
committee
to
'.
review
the
preliminary list, and to get the
.
students' input. In October, 1984,
7 months in advance of commence-

ment, a ·letter was mailed to the
students' first choice speaker.


The
·selection
of the 1986 com_-
mencement speaker was started
even earlier. I met with the junior
class officers in February, 1985, fif-
teen months prior to their com-
mencement. At that meeting, I
received their selections for a com-
mencement speaker. The letter to
their first choice was mailed May
Over the last two years,.the col-
lege has greatly improved the tim-
ing of this process. It is my inten~

tion to meet with this year's junior
class officers in February, 1986, so
that_\Ve
can begin working on their
speaker; 12 to 15 months lead time
seems·to be a realistic time frame
within which to operate.
The selection of commencement
speakers is highly competitive. The
students choose popular people
.
who are in great demand. Marist
.
doesn't always get its first choice
speaker,
.
but

over the last five
years, we have certainly had some
very impressive people: 1985, Com-
modore Grace M. Hopper; 1984,
Joseph Lash, Pulitzer Prize winn-
ing author; 1983, Senator Alphonse
D'Amato;
1982, Dr. James
MacGregor Burns, Pulitzer Prize
winning author and scholar;
·1981,
Lowell Thomas;
1980, John
Lindsay.
.
• The selection
·•
process. isn't
perfect. There has been room for
improvement and we've worked to
improve that process. The college
administration is as eager as you to
find the dynamite speaker you
seek.
Sincerely,
Emily M. Burdis
Director of

Sound
barrier
lndependent's· day
by Kenneth F. Parker Jr.
While independent record com-
panies have existed for decades, on-
ly within the last several years have
they become a major force in.the
music industry. Due to the reces-
sion of the late '70s, relatively few
new artists were signed to major
labels.-Those that were turned
down by the majors were able to
find homes on such independent
labels as Slash, Praxis and SST.
Once the music industry rec.overed
and began signing new talent, one
of the first places they looked was
to
these
independent
labels. As a
result, artists such as Jason and the
Scorchers, the Blasters and X have
landed major label contracts. In-
dependent labels are also responsi-
ble for the recent resurgence of
American music since they foster
bands that originate
in the
independent

Today, in nearly every portion of
the country, an independent label
is successfully at work signing and
promoting· homegrown artists.
Although
independents
sell fewer
records than the majors, recording
and manufacturing costs are kept
to a minimum allowing a similar
percentage of profit to be made.
Run-D.M.C.'s debt1t album on
Profile Records sold over 500,000
copies last

making it the
first independent record certified
gold. Following are several recent
independent teleases.
Tommy Keene -
"Places That
Are Gone" -
Keene has already
left the independent scene with his
signing to Warner Brothers' Gef-
fen Records. Keene relies on
Beatle-esque harmonies to produce
a pop sound similar to that of Mar-
shall Crenshaw. "Back to Zero
Now," an underground hit last
year, was added to a number of
rock stations including WPDH.
His first Geffen album is due
next month with Geoff Emerick
producing. Emerick has worked
with Paul McCartney and Elvis
Costello. If Keene is successful,
Geffen

The Del-Fu egos -
''The
Longest Day" -
At this point,
Boston's Del-Fuegos are probably
more known for their Miller Beer
ads than for their own music. The
band relies on a sound that puts the
guitar and drums right up front.
This production often drowns out
lead singer Chris Zanes which is
perhaps the intent since he has not
yet developed much vocal range or
diversity. Still, this is enjoyable pop
music with several songs suggesting

The Campus Ministry is attemp-
ting to get the entire Marist College
community involved in Peace
Week, which will run from Sept. 30
to Oct. 4.
Scheduled events include a noon-
time prayer service in the chapel
and a 7:30 p.m. lecture by the Rev.
Thomas
Fenlon
in Fireside •
Lounge, both on Sept. 30.
Fenlon is a member of Pax
Christi and was one of the
witnesses for peace who was kid-
napped in Central America.
A noon mass is also scheduled
for Friday, Oct. 4 tocelebratethe
Feast of St. Francis of Assisi,a saint
recognized by all faiths as someone
who worked for peace, according
to Sister Eileen Halloran.
During
the week Campus
Ministry will distribute pamphlets
containing a pledge that people can
make to fast and pray for one day.
Aside from trying to get students
involved, Campus Ministry is plan- •
ning to approach professors about
addressing the issue of peace in
their classrooms.
These efforts are geared toward
making the issue of peace a per-
sonal and individual thing which
everyone can work towards, accor-
ding to Sister Eileen. "Nothing is
going to happen if we sit back, "
she said. "It's more of a sin if we
do nothing."
One of the purposes of Peace
Week is to inform students.
"It'~
an attempt to raise the con-
sciousness, to address the issue of
peace in the world and to bring to
a level of discussion the need for
each of us to meet the needs of pro-
moting peace," Sister Eileen said.
The major problem to overcome
is lack of information. "Students
aren't up to date on the issues,"
Sister Eileen said. "They know
there's a problem but can't define
it.
J
f we can define it, it may make
them think about their responsibili-
ty."
When people think of peace,
they usually think of world peace
and disarmament, according to
Sister Eileen. But that is not the on-
ly type of peace addressed during
Peace Week.

"We want co look at peace on an
individual level, then family, com-
munity, society and ultimately a
world level," Sister Eileen said.
"The first thing we have to do,"
she said, "is to become people who
strive for peace within ourselves.
That comes out of our religious
convictions,
whether they be
Catholic, Jewish or Moslem."
Room check policy prompts
concerns about dorm privacy
Yoczi.
This _process, as it was stated in
the memo, has caused concern
among some Champagnat residents
who insist that their privacy is be-
ing invaded.
. Mary Joe McCoy, a second floor
resident, said she viewed the pro-
cess as a violation of her personal
rights.
"I
don't think anyone has
the right to come keying-in to my
rooin withoµt my knowledge. If

Sue Ryan, president of the

adds that many of the default col-
lection -programs undertaken by
New York in the past few years
have been adopted by the federal
government and other states, such
as utilizing payroll reduction plans
for defaulted state workers, and in-
tercepting defaulters' tax refunds.
The latter enabled · New York
state to collect $3.8 million in
defaulted loans; state officials said
this amount would have been
higher if the state did not have to
obtain a court judgment against the
defaulter before giving information
to the tax department.
In addition, New York state will
require schools to counsel bor-
rowers on their obligations to repay·
their Joans, and will report students
to credit rating bureaus, so that
lenders are aware of the debts and
will refuse additional borrowing
until .the student loan is paid.
HESC has devised a new pro-
posal, currently in congressio~al
subcommittees, that could force m-
dividual states and not the federal
government to pay more of the
costs on defaulted loans.
State and-federal officials said
that the cost of defaults was receiv-
ing more attention because of the
need to reduce the deficit and.
Education Secretary William H.
Bennett's concern that loans were
being given to families that did not
need the financial aid.
Students who attended school
without enough training to gain
employment and students who
graduated after one or two years,
were the first to default on their
loans, according to last year's New
York state analysis of the problem.

World hunger
To the Editor:
USA for Africa and the student
leaders from 1,000 · colleges and
high schools in fifty states have
joined together in a student cam-
paign against hunger. The Cam-
paign, entitled "So Let's Start Giv-
ing: The National Student Cam-
paign Against Hunger," is being,
organized by the student Public In-
terest Research Groups (PIRGs)
based on over 100 campuses.
The Campaign will have a three-
part focus; GIVE: fundraisers to
• benefit USA for Africa; LEARN:
educational
events to deepen
understanding about hunger; and
ACT: local projects to attack
hunger in the United States.
Students who conduct the most
creative and effective projects in
each category will be honored at
the.World Hunger Media Awards
ceremony by USA for Africa at th~
FRG:.E
DEL!VER..Y
I
United Nations this November.
The World Hunger Media Awards
are sponsored by Kenny and
Marianne Rogers.
The Campaign has formed a Na-
tional Speakers Bureau of many of
the nations leading hunger experts
in association with Lecture-Literary
Management, Inc. of New York
City. The Bureau,
bringing
together many of the leaders of
hunger organizations for the first
time for such an educational cam-
paign, includes: Ken Kragen and
Marty Rogol, President and Ex-
ecutive Director of USA for Africa;
David Guyer, President of SAVE
The Children; John Hammock,
Executive Director of Oxfam
America; Francis Moore Lappe
and Joseph Collins, co-founders of
the Institute for Food and Develop-
mentPo}icy; and Dr_..Larry Brown,
Chairperson of the Physician Task
Force on Hunger in America.
Guest stars from USA for Africa
will speak
depending
upon
availability.
The Campaign mailed a 32 page
"Hunger
Action Manual"
to
30,000 student leaders at every col-
lege and high school in the coun-
try at the end of August. The
manual
was produced
with
assistance from BBD&O, a New
York-based advertising agency and
the Crisis Action Team, a group of
volunteers from New York's adver-
tising community.
A number of prominent in-
dividuals have joined the campaign
advisory board including: Marty
Rogol, Executive Director of USA
for Africa; Reverend Theodore
Hesburgh, President, University of
Notre
Dame;
Amy Carter,
Freshman at Brown University;
Representative Mickey Leland (D-
TX) Chairperson, House Select
. Committee on Hunger; Represen-
tative Marge Roukema (R-NJ)

Select Committee on Hunger;
Representative Benjamin Gilman
(R-NY);

A
Ya11ks-Mets series means riotirigin NYC

I


~.


'
by
Brian O'Connor
Stay away from New York City
in late October if the baseball teams
make it to the World Series.
There'll be rioting in the streets.
With the Yankees floating about
five games behind the Blue Jays
and the Mets around two back of
the
Cardinals, a subway series still
looks possible for the first time
since Willie and the Duke went
west and left the Yankees alone in
the Big Apple;
That possiblity brings a fiendish
grin to the lips of the devout fan
of the Yanks or Mets as he wolfs
down the best-tasting hot pretzel in
New York and thinks of fina.Ily
get-
ting to rub in a true victory for ci-
ty supremacy.
- .
No more Mayor's
Trophy
games, watching some third
stringers whiff, but a real nationa.l-
ly televised defeat;
The Yanks reigned as kings of ·
the World Series by winning more
titles over the years than any other
ball club in existence. Names such
as the Babe and the Iron Horse,
Whitey and Yogi, the Scooter and
Mickey
·1ed
the Bronx Bombers

from the twenties until the sixties.
Just as the sixties brought social
change to America, it brought
changes to the baseball world too.
With pioneering and expansion,
Kennedy promised a man on the
moon before the end of the decade;
people laughed but it came to pass.
Expansion in baseball created the
Mets, they promised nothing
before the end of the decade:
pe<r
pie laughed but as it came to pass
they wonthe World Series in 1969.
With Clendenon, Cleon and

Toni Terrific, ftie Amazing Mets
stunned the city of New York and
left it
_with
a cl}oice of loyalti~.
New Yorkers either stuck with the
proven powerhouse of the past, or
switched to the new winners mak-
ing the headlines.
So the feud between Mets' fans
and Yankees' fans was ignited and
it now blazes to a new high. And
the
fuel of pennant fever is adding
to the fire.
-
The Mets have Hernandez,
Caner, Strawberry and Foster for
a powerful offense and Dwight
Gooden as a gem of a hurler on the
mound.
The Yanks have Baylor, Win-
field, Henderson and Mattingly for
.....
~-:1·.
an·equalJy strong display of p~wer
and Ron Guidry as its ace on the

hill.
-
The arguments rage from com-
parison of team statistics to. dif-
ferences between the National and
the American leagues to the taste
of hot pretzels at the stadiums.
Yanks' fans say that the A.L.
If Gooden keeps up the
K
count
and Mattingly continues to drive
nms across, do both_ clubs have a
c_hance to regain first place, beat
.off the West and meet in the fall
- classic? Right now nothing is cer-
tain;except that Dwight will be the
CyYo~ngAward winner·and Don
will take t_he MVP Award.
So, will.there be rioting on the·
tracks
if
thei:e is a subway series?

Who knows?
East is the toughest division in
baseball. Mets' fans say that the
N.L. East is just as tough and they
play without the designated hitter.
Yanks' aficianados rage that the
A.L. has better hitters. Mets' lovers
rage that the N.L. has better pit-
But if that fan uses. rock-hard;
