be strictly closed to Marist
students, faculty, administration
and employees," said Doldo, who
added that the Public Relations Of-
fice would not have been· needed
unless the event was open to the
public.
Baird, who could not be reach-
ed by The Circle this week, told the
Poughkeepsie Journal that Marist
officials had said they were under
pressure to cancel the debate.
A faculty member, who asked
not to be identified, said,
"I
heard
before the semester started that
pressures were being brought to
bear by some Catholics of the
Marist community to prevent the
debate from being held." He said
he did not know whether such
pressure caused the postponement.
This past summer, when Doldo
was planning the event, he had
presented his ideas to Deborah
Bell, assistant dean of students.
"Deb Bell told me that I had the
approval of Vice President Cox as
long as it would be a balanced
debate," said Doldo.
"All
1
wanted was
a
legal and
ethical debate. Both Klimek and
Baird had agreed not to bring
religion in to it," said Doldo.
"I
wanted it to be a week of
understanding about a public
issue."
Because a large majority of the
student body at Marist is Catholic,
Cox said, Marist is still associated
with the Catholic Church.
"I
wouldn't say
the
association was
just in the past. The present student
body is predominately Catholic,"
Cox said.

student-sponsored. The purpose of
the week is not to say abortion· is
good or bad, it is to create a greater
awareness," said Student Govern-
ment President Peter Prucnel.
"College is a place for open
debate. Marist has no right to
destroy this," said Gina Disanza,
president of Student Academic
Committee.
"By debat1ng it
doesn't mean that one condones
something. It just means that one
is willing to look at an issue
as
mature adults."
•
According to Cox, the issue of
abortion will still be dealt with at
Marist, but rather than stand
alone, it will be a part of a series
dealing with human sexuality.
"This will be a larger series. We
won't try to do it all in one week,"
said Cox. "It may even carry over
into
the spring semester."
"We were going to be spending
one week dealing with abortion in
no context. With a more complete
series, we'll be placing it within a
context and dealing with it," said
Cox.
•
Newly installed CUB President
Linda Imhof said that she plans on
meeting with the faculty to get their
input. "I think the issue is very im-
portant, and it (the events) will
happen.
It
is not being cancelled by
any means," said Imhof.
Baird runs a Long Island abor-
tion and birth control clinic. Three

tions and teen-agers' rights to abor-
tions without parental consent.

M~rist re<?pens
registrar search
by Len Johnson
Marist will· begin interviewing
applicants for the job of registrar
this fall and the position should be
filled by the beginning of the spring
semester,
according
to Marc
vanderHeyden,
academic vice
president.
The
-position
has been filled on
a temporary basis by Associate
Registrar Rosemary Malloy since
August
1,
when Registrar Elizabeth
Ross left Marist to become registrar
at The· New School of Social
Research in New York City.
Because Ross left late in the sum-
mer, there was very Jittle time to
solicit applications for the job
before the beginning of the fall
semester, vanderHeyden said. And
although Marist received 25 ap-
plications, vanderHeyden decided
more time was necessary to make
the right choice.
•
"I believe that with such a
crucial job we are better off taking
our time," he said, "particularly
with such a competent acting
registrar."
Because the registrar's job is so
difficult and includes many respon-
sibilities, vanderHeyden said, fin-
ding a suitable applicant is not an
easy task. "It's a high pressure of-
fice where you cannot afford to

celebration on a weekend with a
scheduled home football game, but
the alumni wanted to maintain the
Columbus Day tradition. The foot-
ball game scheduled for Oct. 11 will
be played at Iona College.
"Because of the home~and-home
arrangements, you're guaranteed
that every other year the game is
played away," said Elsie Mula,
assistant to the athletic director.
The Alumni Executive Board
wants to hold alumni Homecoming
the same weekend every year. "We
want the alumni to be able to plan
at least a year in advance," said
Susan Rexer, director of alumni af-
fairs. "The board wants to be con-
sistent so that on every Saturday of
Columbus Day weekend, people
know they can head on over here
and see their friends," Rexer said.
•
To give the students a chance to
celebrate a Homecoming weekend
with the traditional football game,
parade and floats, the Student Ac-
tivities Office planned the
separate
weekends, according to Manzi. .
"We designated the last weekend
in September so the students
could
have the traditional Homecoming
celebration," said Manzi.
There will also be a pep rally the
Friday before Homecoming. A
theme was to be determined at a
•
meeting last Tuesday. The game
will start at
1
p.m.

Imhof becomes head of CUB
by Julie Sveda
Linda Imhof has taken over the
position of CUB president, after
the resignation of Frank Doldo at
the start of the semester.
According to Doldo, his resigna-
tion was the result of academic pro-
bationary terms.
"Because of
a
bad semester I had
to accept terms which meant not
being involved with extracurricular
activities," Doldo said.
According to the CUB constitu-
tion, a student must have at least
one year of experience on a com-
mittee or
as
a chairperson to hold
the office of president.
"l feel Linda will do an excellent
job in the position. She has very
energetic and responsible chairpeo-
ple who will provide ac1ivi1ies for
the whole student body 10 enjoy,"
said Doldo.
Although
the programming
for
the whole semester was done this
past summer, Imhof said that CUB
will begin 1he planning of next
semester's events.
Among her plans arc more
events being held in the River
Room, a ca;toon festival and art
contest.

dent when Sue Ryan resigned last
May.
separate administratively," said
Rexer. "It's one thing when three-
fourths of the students are or age
but it's another if only 5 percent
are."
Rexer is concerned that students
will not like the new alumni pro-
cedures. "We're all in this together
and I hope the students don't take
it too negatively," Rexer said.
The reaction from many students
to the separate Homecoming
weekends has been negative. "I'm
going anyway," said Mike Savage,
a 21-year-old senior.
"I
have a lot
of friends who have
already
graduated, and it's ridiculous to
think that l can't hang out with
them during alumni weekend."
"l know a lot of seniors are
upset, especially the ones who are
21,"
said
Theresa Ruotolo, presi-
dent of the senior class.
"I
think
it's beneficial for us to talk to the
alumni just to find out what it's
like the first year out of school,"
Ruotolo said.
Career Day, sponsored by the
alumni in the spring, is designed
specilically for that purpose, accor-
ding to Rexer, but Ruotolo said she
does not think that a1mosphere is
the same as Homecoming weekend.
"It's like a classroom situation,"
said Ruotolo. "During Homecom-
ing
weekend,
you're with friends
who are going to give you a little
less biased opinion than alumni
who are specifically chosen to par-
ticipate in Career Day,"
said
Ruotolo.
College reaffirms
policy on drinking
by Denise Wilsey
Although
one student
was
dismissed from campus housing
and another withdrew from college
after violating Marist's alcohol
policy at the start of the semester,
college officials say they have not
increased penalties for students
who break campus drinking rules.
"We have not changed the
alcohol policy or enforcement of
the· policy," said Steve Sansola,
director of housing. "We are
following the same procedures and
guidelines as last semester. We
review each case individually.
There are usually a number of dif-
ferent factors involved in making
a disciplinary decision on each
case."

was
dismissed from
his
residency area
and a
female
freshman
voluntarily
withdrew from Marist after discus-
sions with housing officials, San-
sola said.
Housing officials did not release
names of the students.
The freshman was taken to St.
Francis Hospital after drinking
heavily at a small party in
Townhouse 8- 7. Sanso la cited one
of the violations
in
the senior's
dismissal as providing alcoholic
beverages for a person under 21,
New York's legal drinking age.
State law prohibits anyone from
purchasing
for or providing
alcoholic beverages to anyone
under 21 years of age.
The senior appealed to Assistant
Dean for Student Affairs Peter
Amato. The student now resides in
a
•
Canterbury Apartment, off-
campus Marist housing.
According to the college hand-
book, dismissal from a particular
residence is a response to a third
violation of residence norm or the
single violation of a "serious"
norm.
According to Sansola, one inci-
dent may be viewed as multiple
violations of policy and may war-
rant dismissal
from college
housing.
In a second incident Sept.
5,
a
freshman girl spent the night in St.
Francis Hospital after drinking
heavily with upperclassmen in a
Gartland Commons apartment.
The incident is still under investiga-
tion, according to Sansola.
There were about 25 cited viola-
tions of the alcohol policy in the
first JO days of the semester, San-

since the start of the semester have
been alcohol-related.
Marist's alcohol policy states
that students can consume alcohol
in those buildings where students
are of legal age. These include such
north end buildings as Gregory
House, townhouses,
Gartland
Commons, North Road housing
and Canterbury Apartments.
The south-end
housing, in-
cluding Champagnat Hall and the
freshman areas is alcohol-free.
Parties can be held only in cam-
pus housing where all residents are
of the legal drinking age.
Currently,
there
are
no
townhouses where all residents are
21 and there are only two apart-
ments in the Gartland Commons
where all residents are of the legal
drinking age.
Computer post remains
vacant after 15 months
by Diane Pomilla
Fifteen months after the resigna-
tion of Cecil Denney, Marist con-
tinues to search for a director for
the Computer Center.
According to Ed Waters, vice
president for administration, fin-
ding someone qualified for the
position has been difficuh. "We
are looking for an excellent in-
dividual," Waters
said.
"Our stan-
dards are very high."
Waters
said
Marist has con-
ducted two searches for a new
director.
In
the first
no
one
accep-
table was found; in the second, two
candidates
were
selected,
but
neither wanted the
job.
The college has placed adver-
tisements in The New York Times
and contacted people in the com-
puter field, he said.
The Computer Center is current-
ly being run by Waters and three
computer coordinators,
Harry
Anderson, Wendy Whitely and
Paula Trimble.
The job of director was
left va-
cant
in
June 1985 when Denney
took
a
job at the University of
Texas
Medical
School
at
Galveston. Jim Falanga held the
position of acting director until
February 1986 when he resigned to
take a job in priva1e
industry.
Waters said he handles the
budgeting and finances of the
Computer Center while the coor-
dinators operate the center on a
daily basis.
The coordinators refused to
comment on the hiring of a new
Computer Center director.
Anderson, who has a B.A. from
Maris! and is currently pursuing an
M.S. in computer
science,
is the
manager of
systems
in
the
Com-
pulcr Center.
He
has been with

Canterbury residents air
housing complaints
A Marist graduate

.
Security problems, as well as a
shortage of supplies, have started
the year off on a bad foot for many
residents of the Canterbury Apart-
ments, Marist housing located off
of Route 44 East in Poughkeepsie.
Although there are. I 06 students
currently living in the apartment
complex, the college rented enough
space to house 160 students, said
Barbara Hynes, the assistant direc-
tor of housing. As housing spaces
open up on campus, Canterbury
residents may move if they want.
"So far, we have had seven re-
quests to move back onto the cam-
pus," said Hynes.
Forthose students remaining at
Canterbury security, or lack of it,
is a major concern; Although the
students housed there pay the same
amount for room and board as
those living on campus, Marist
security is not present at the com-
plex. Some students have express-
ed discontent with this policy, say-
ing they feel they deserve equal pro-
tection for equal money.
"We should get the same securi-
ty," said Unit Coordinator Jerry
Romanelli, a senior from Farm-
ingdale, N.Y.
Already four female students oc-
cupying one Canterbury apartment
reported three incidents of prowlers

ing office, the shades for these
apartments are on order and are to
be installed soon.
Reporting the incident to police
or fire officials was delayed
because Canterbury residents did
not have phone service due to a
company strike. Unit coordinators,
who live in the apartment complex,
do not have campus phones.

The last thing
Marist
graduate Carl MacGowan. ex-
pected after paying nearly
$40,000 for his education was to
receive a $588.50 refund from
the college.
But on August 25 of this year,
he received notification of such
from D' Arcangelo & Co. of
Poughkeepsie, a firm that
audits student accounts in the
Business Office at Marist.
"The envelope was marked
'This is not a bill' so I was hap-
py
to
see that,"
said
MacGowan. "But the real sur-
prise came when I opened it and
the slip said that Marist owed
me $588.50."
MacGowan, who graduated
last spring, said he thinks the re-
fund came because of some late-
arriving financial aid to the
school in his· name.
"It
was probably my New
York State TAP (Tuition
Assistance Program) and my
dorm security deposit that I
never
claimed,t'
said
MacGowan.
Jack Cina Jr., a certified
public accountant from D' Ar-
cangelo, agreed. "In many
cases, it is outstanding financial
aid or deposits that lead to the
refunds;" said Cina.
Cina said the firm annually
audits approximately 170 to 200
out of about 3,000 student ac-
counts. A computer prints out

Sansola said he believes the
students' request is a sensible one,
but granting their request could
prompt similar requests from
others, and the kitchen is not

"To be consistent with policy,"
said Sansola, "I don't have an

Allison Ring of Staten Island,

firmation to Bill Marx, manager of
dining services, stating that she is
allergic to two grains, corn syrup
and assorted fruits and vegetables,

never do we find that the stu-
dent owes the school more than
is on his bill."
Marist is required by law to
have an annual audit, but the
law does not specify how many
accounts have to be checked
according to Cina.
'
Anthony
Campilii, chief
finance officer at Marist, said
any student can request to see
his account and get a copy of it
from the Business Office at any
time.
At the end of every semester
the Business Office determine;
who
will be returning to Marist
the f?l}~wing semester, said
Campilu.
"If
a student is not coming
back, we send any dollars we
owe them directly to their ad-
dress on record," he said. "As
far as students are concerned

extra assurance because
we update every account at the
end of every semester."
For that reason, MacGowan
would have received the refund
sometime this summer even if
the auditing company did not
choose to check his account
Campilii said.
'
MacGowan said this was not
the first time he has had a pro-
blem with his bill.
"During the Spring 1986
semester,
I went to the
Registrar's Office to drop a
course, but the person there ac-
cidently added the course to my
file," said MacGowan. "So the
• school kept sending me a bill for
takirig 21 credits when I was ac-
tually taking

That problem was eventually
reso~ved, he said. "The system

The residents have decided co
bring their case to the lnterhouse
Council to formally petition hous-
ing for their request.
Failure of the students to pay for
the meal plan could result in their
being dropped from registration.
The deadline for payment was
Monday.
The process of being deleted is
based on prior payment history,
and each case is judged and handl-
ed separately, according to Judy
Ivankovic, bursar.
The students say most of their
anger regarding the situation stems
from being placed in Gregory in-
stead of the Townhouses.

Can't we· be friends?
Violence is uncalled for -
and among friends it's
unexplainable.
•
•
Fights in several bars in Poughkeepsie, the abuse of people at
off--campus parties and the harassment of people on campus say
a lot about the character of the student body at Marist.
Realistically, one cannot say these incidents will never occur.
A hot and crowded bar filled with people who have been drink-
ing is a breeding ground for a barroom brawl, but the tension
and hostility among Marist students are becoming increasingly
larger and increasingly unhealthy.
When local bars have to clear the occupants and lose their
.
business for the night because of an abundance of fights, as was
done this past weekend, isn't the situation out of hand?
When a female sophomore sits helplessly at an off-campus party
and watches her peers cheer
as
they repeatedly bang someone's
head into a window until it goes through,
as
she did the first week
of school, shouldn't one wonder what is happening?
Marist is a college composed of a diverse group of people -
people with different ideas and beliefs and even people with con-
flicting ideas and beliefs. Welcome to the real world.
Are violence and cruelty the things we will take with us when.
we graduate from Marist?
Now consider the fact that many people base their opinions on
one experience or enco'-lnter. The recent involvement of Marist
students in violent and cruel acts is lowering the surrounding
public's opinion of the Marist student body.
They, too, have had enough.

Wh ere you stand: A time to decide
by Robert Hatem
Believe it or not, there comes a
time when all people must decide
what it is they believe in. This is,
_
however, often lost in a setting of
mass diversion. Even when the par-
ties are over,· the bars clo~ed, the
keg run dry, we are still able to
vegetate
in
front of a television,
partying- behind closed doors and
asking everyone what there is to do.
All.this only aids in a vane attempt
to avoid serious thoughts that we
find too undesirable to deal with.
But when we finally stop mak-
ing jokes to impress friends and
lovers, we should ask ourselves
what we believe. This involves the
difficult task of looking at the
world around us and asking where
we fit in. Among terrorist attacks,
nuclear accidents, Reaganomics
and Don Johnson fashions, do we
really hold an opinion that
we
have
decided to believe in? And ifwe do
have
_these
beliefs, what do we do
about them?
Well, most people do believe in
something; After all, we react to
starvation when it is thrown in our
face. Live Aid proved that some
people do want to do something
about starvation, but what is the
popular response?
Most people decide to throw
money at the problem. If countries
are starving we throw money, if
Nicaragua has problems we throw
money, and if people can't find
work or housing. we .throw still
more money. This is not, however,
taking a stand. It is a way of
soothing our conscience while not
really getting involved.
Personally, I am perhaps the
greatest lover of the power of
money seen in the history world,
but part of that love is the realiza-
tion that money is not a cure of its
own. It is the easiest commodity to
obtain, and the one we most easily
dispence of. It is a very easy
substitute for getting involved.

If nothing else it is your duty to

Despite all else, that is the pur-

Knitter persists with the question
because he judges that a theology

And
perhaps, as history reminds us with
regard to other scriptural passages,
perhaps the obvious meaning here
is not. the 'true meaning. Take

argues for a theocentric model for
religious pluralism. What is distinc-

Can there be new questions from·
new perspectives about the mean-
ing of "No Other Name?" Knitter
shows that there are and suggests
"that all the 'one and only'
qualifiers
to
the
various
christological titles pertain more to
the medium used by the New Testa-
ment than to its cores message."
His book is worth reading for a
better understanding of the new
questions and new perspectives
raised by (along with the complex-
ities of) interreligious dialogue,
whether or not you agree with his
suggested answers.
The new questions are raised by
the fact that, for the first time in
history, the Christian religion is
engaged in a dialogue with other
major religious traditions. These

and Islam,

Knitter claims that since the early
part of this century, an evolution
which some call a "Copernican
•
revolution"
has been shifting
Christian consciousness from an
ecclesiocentrism to christocentrism
and now to theocentrism. Perhaps,
the path he explores involves such
a shift in consciousness, but he
himself admits that the path must
win greater approval from the
"sense of the faithful" before it
can be called a valid Christian path.
The present sense of the Christian
faithful in America includes a
resurgence of biblical fundamen-
talism. The present sense of the
American Catholic faithful, as
recently published studies suggest,
inclines them to pray first to Jesus,
then to Mary, his mother, and on-
ly thirdly to God the Father.
Reading Knitter's bo.Jk, you are led
to wonder which of these three is
the valid Christian path.

When I entered Marist in the fall
of
1984,
I was excited by my new
classes. I had been accepted
•
into
the communication arts program,
and felt pretty impressed . .! felt this
would be a good major for me. I
wasn't sure at the time what I
wanted to do with my life as far as
a career. I knew I wanted to write,
but I was also kind of drawn to
television and film.
I took the usual intro comm
classes that a freshman takes:
"Public Speaking," "Mass Com-
munication" and "Interpersonal
Communication." I did well in all
these and felt that I was going to
breeze this major. Then l heard the
murmurs of "bogus major " and
"easy major." 1 began to wonder
if communication arts had been the
right choice.
At that time,
I
had decided to
minor in English, which I thought
would
supplement my communica-
tion degree and improve me as a
writer. I found that I really liked
English, and it was challenging. I
• struggled with the courses in my
freshman year, but the results
seemed worth it. I was amazed with
the works of Chaucer, Milton and
Dryden. These are names I may
have never known if I hadn't taken
English literature.
The
following
year,
last
September, I grew discontent with
my comm arts major. I didn't feel
that the requirements were strict
enough. After all, 10 classes in any
upper level division didn't seem so
tough. And, although a lot of the
writing classes are dual for com-
munication arts and English, I still
liked the courses in the English pro-
gram better. I switched my major
to English with a writing concentra-
tion, and now I am satisfied.
The point of all this is just to
open your eyes to one fact
l
and
many of my comrades of our
former major have discovered; you
will get more "training" as a writer
as an English major. The English
writing major requires you to take
two classes in upper level literature,
and
6
in upper level writing classes.
The other requirements include
"English Literature I and
II,"
"American Literature
I
and
II,"
"Introduction to Linguistics" and
"History of Literary Criticism
I."
As any educated person knows,
one cannot be a true and accurate
writer with out studying those who
wroce before him. Imitation and
practice are the keys to success as
an author, and unfortunately the
communication arts program lacks
the emphasis on literature. I am not
putting down the major, because it
is good if you know what you want
to go into (such as radio or public
relations). But, if you want to be
a writer and get the proper educa-
tion you'll need to create lasting
written art, then maybe the English
writing program is for you.
Something to ponder before it's
too late.
Diane Pomilla is a junior major-
ing in English.

U2 heads for road; Boston back
by Eric
Turpin
Once again, I'm back to harbor
good news about the world of rock
and roll and other miscellaneous
tidbits that come my way. The big
news this week is the Irish band
U2's announcement of a major
world-wide tour for the next year
and a half. The tour will start next
month in Europe, and come over
to the States shortly afterwards. A
U2 spokesperson has said that the
band will play stadiums and other
large
venues which will lead to even
more popularity for the band.
Have you noticed that Duran
Duran guitarist Andy Taylor has
been making rounds outside of the
band? In case you haven't, or just
haven't ·cared (which is awfully
easy to understand), the a'uburn-
liaired
•guitarist
has been playing
with the likes of Belinda Carlisle,
Dale Bozzio (Missing Person's
drummer), and Robert Palmer.
Andy has reportedly replied that he
isn't too thrilled with his Birm-
ingham buddies, but Duran Duran
is still a very functional band. By
the way, if Duran Duran is so in-
tact why has Andy.signed a seven-
record contract deal with Atlantic
records. Hnunm .......

Marjorie, relieved this whole
ordeal is over, sinks to the floor
next to the attacker while Terry and
Pat get some help.
Throughout the film, Fawcett is
exceptionally powerful.Her role as
a young woman determined to
make a man pay for what he has
done to her, comes across so clear-
ly. She is so. convincing that you
find yourself really getting involv-
ed in her situation.
James Russo, who starred with
Farrah in the off-Broadway pro-
duction of "Extremities" as well as
;
the film, is rough and rugged, and
a bit comical to lighten up the in-
tense drama.
The supporting cast was another
plus to the film. The roles of Pat,
played by Alfre Woodard, and
Terry, played by Diana Scarwid,
are a funny twosome
because
they
contrast each other so well. This
characterimtion gives the film a bit
of flavor.
With it's intense plot, strong ac-
ting, and good characterizations,
"Extremities"
was
one of the bet-
ter movies to be released this sum-
mer and it is definitely worth
seeing.
The single "Amanda," has already
took off and it looks like the
album was well worth the wait.
Part of the reason that the Boston
album took so long was a series of
legal battles that were raised by
both Boston and their original
record company, Epic records. In-
cidentally, Epic claims that they are
currently mixing their own material
for yet anotbe_r Boston album,·
regardless of Boston's new com-
mitment to
MCA.
Joan Jett's fifth album entitled
"Contact" should be with us in a
few weeks. Jett is currently work-
ing on ~e album with producer
and longtime
friend
Kenny
Laguna. Jett will also co-star with
MichaelJ. Fox in a feature film
called "Light of Day." Be on the
lookout for the new Pretenders
album which is currently being
mixed and mastered
up in
Woodstock,
N.Y.
And one last word of caution, if
you have tickets to see a concert in
Hartford, Conn., and the show is
at the Civic Center, be sure to call
and find out if the show is still on;
there is a maintenance strike going
on and shows are being cancelled.

It would be the matrix of a society -

symbiotic relationship for the intrinsic value of their art. Wouldn't
the man on the street find this refreshing?
Sebastian, invariably, had a strong opinion on this. He said: "I

want any new-fangled literary theory or some spaced-out direc-

tion, but it came out harsher than I intended.

"Sebastian you don't even help out with the groceries, or do

I supposed to absorb

Then he gets this glazed look in his eye (which is very subtle con-

Loan woes may be ahead
WASHINGTON, D.C. (CPS)
-
Nearly 4 million students na-
tionwide may have trouble getting
student loans soon, a bankers'
association warned last week.
The interest rates students pay
on new loans will rise while many
banks, says the Consumer Bankers
Association in Washington; D.C.,
may simply stop making student
loans if Congress approves a pro-
posal to cut a special government
allowance the banks get for mak-
ing the lo~ns.
"Many banks may just get out
(of the student loan business) com-
pletely," says William Clohan, the
group's lawyer.
•
it had already made to Marine
Midland Bank.
But even Marine Midland of-
ficials are· not optimistic. ''The bot-
tom line," says bank official Greg
Lancaster, "is some banks are go-
ing to say 'Why are we in this?"
About 13,000 lenders are in the
Guaranteed Student Loan program
now, Clohan estimates.
Their worry is a provision, ap-
proved three weeks ago by • a •
House-Senate conference commit-
tee, in the proposed Higher Educa-
tion· Reauthorization Act that
would cut the special allowance
banks get.
ten years ago, Kidwell recalls,
"Congress was literally begging
lenders to come in."
"The incentives enticed them to
come in, and build improvements
in the system," he says.
Congress, the Gramm-Rudman
balanced. budget Jaw and the ad-
ministration have all helped whit-
tle the incentives down over the last
five years. The bill now before
Congress
would
share
the
allowance from 3.5 percent over
the T-bill rate to 3.25 percent over
the T-bill rate.
Advocates of the reduction see it
as a way to help cut government
costs and balance the federal
budget.

"Students are going to have to

willing to loan them money," adds
Bill Kidwell of the National Educa-
tional Lending Center.
To encourage banks to

students, the government has let

I was so proud of him at that moment. Misty-eyed, I concen-

Granted, college basketball is a
big-time business, and like any
business, it has its problems. But
it is still a game.
The major aspect of Marist
basketball is still the fact that these
are kids playing a kids game in the
limelight of a man's world. We
outsiders tend to place this fact out
of focus sometimes.
Let's face it, the major concern
for us Red Fox fans is not placing
the players under the microscope
any more than they already are -
especially after McCann was ap-
•
pearing to become a fairly tranquil
place where the team could concen-
trate on playing Dr. Naismith's

ing an All-American.

Failing to execute, gridders fall in opener

dictionary-style answer for the
meaning of the term.
•
He·wm probably say it was ab~
sent from his football team's inind
and actions on the gridiron as the
Red Foxes were trounced in their
season opener against Dickinson
College, 31-7. With the loss, Marist
now stands at 0-1.
.
•
The game, played at Dickinson's
Carlisle, Pa. campus, was not lost
on any one particular play or series
of plays, according to Malet. What .
was lacking, he noted, was total
team execution.
•
"We just didn't execute fun-_
damenfally ," said Malet.
Dickins·on
freshman quarterback
Sean Maloney connected with Red
Devil receivers four times in the end
zone. Malet lamented on the
·play
of his defensive line and secondary,
but was qi.tick n:ot to place the
blame on ·any one particular unit of
his team for the loss.
"There is no one person or one
area
·
of the football team that
-played
worse than any other," said
Malet. "The offense, defense and
special teams all did not execute."
Malet did·, however, praise the
efforts of the backfield tandem of
junior Ed Christensen and senior
Mark Burlingame.
"Ed had a fine game, and Mark
Burlingame blocked like a Mack
truck,'' said Malet. Christensen
·carried
the ball 27 times for 79
yards.

the play of Cannon

The quarterback spot is still up in

"None of them grabbed the bull
by the ring or won the derby," said
Malet.
Offensively, Malet was pleased
with the play of senior Sean
Keenan, who was moved to tight
end from linebacker last week. All
three of Keenan's receptions were
first downs made on crucial third
down plays.

The only Marist winner of the
day against Vassar, second-
semester freshman Karla Bellotto,
won in the sixth singles position in
straight sets
(6-4,
6-2). The Red
Foxe.~• first-seed, captain Joelle
Stephenson, was the only other
Marist singles player to test the
Brewers' netters, losing in split sets
(6-1, 2-6, 3-6).
Except for B<"llotto
and fourth-
seed Beth Ann Saunders, who lost
in straight sets despite taking the
se-

cond set to a tiebreaker, no Marist
singles player managed to win more
than three games in a set. The se-
cond doubles team of Alison Block
and Sheila Bradley were the only
Marist pair to give Vassar a

time in doubles, losing ~6, 5-7.
Despite all of these unpleasant
scores, Coach Terry Jackrel felt the
match was closer than the score
might indicate.
"They were a tough team, and
very steady," Jackrel said of the
Vassar players. "A lot of the games
went to 3-3, but then we would lose
it. There were a lot of close ones."
Four points are needed to win a
game and six games needed to win
a set in collegiate tennis.
"They
(Vassar) didn't
do
anything fancy," Jackrel con-
tinued, "but they were very steady.
They got the points when they
needed them."
