Zeta Beta Tau Loses House and Its National Affiliation

By SUSAN WHITE Staff Writer

There have been a nwnber of changes involving the Greek System both nationally and locally at various coUeges around the country. The fraternal organization Ze1a Bela Tau has received considerable auention latelv. Second In According to a a two part recent article in the series New York Times

(Wednesday. AugU5t :23, 1989ed.ition)thenationalorgani• zation of ZBT has banned pledging for all its chapters. Such attempts to control the fraternities have rrickh:d down from all types of authorities. a.'ld, in April of 1989, lhe Trustees of F&M withdrew recognition of all Greek organizations on campus.

In the wake of this decision, there have been considerable prop­eny disputes between the College

and the broiherhoods. and ZBT was the fustro lose possession ofitshouse on College Avenue.

Unlike most of the other frater­nities, the school already owned the land andhousethatZBTrentedunder the restrictions and obligatiOilS of a lease. Reposessionofthis land by the school involved a law suit between the brotherhood and the administra­tion of F&M.

··we could not afford to con­tinue the law suit .. We had ro senle out of court." said Jim Devine. member of the judicial and e:,;ecutive boards of ZBT.

Devine explained. that the broth­ers areobligated to the pay the school for .. the damages over the years ...

According to Devine, the original lease did not allow for alrerations in the house, including the consrruction of lofts and other alterations.

The lease was valid until the academic year of1992-1993, and the nonna1renewalpolicywouldinvolve a renegotiation of the terms.

According to Devine, a repre­sentativefrom IMS came to the house with a video camera to .. look for the damages that had been done IO date." Tius would relieve the present broth­erhoodof Iheresponsiblityof dealing wilh lhe damages that had been done by the brothers before them. How­ever. after settlement, the brother­hood was required to compensate for thoseclamagesthatviolatedtherenns of the lease.

In lhe midst of their difficulties. thenationalorganizationhasrecendv withdrawn recognition of ZBT ~ well.

'They wanted us to be some­thing that we weren't." said Devine.

lievine explained that the membersofthenationalorganization were not at01D1.d to experience and thm appreciate their position.

'1'hey Jeft us to fend for our­selves," he said, .. and we did it the best way we could."

"We are still active and pursU­ing alternative means of continuing our brolherhorxl, .. said President of the chapter John Packard.

'We don't hold any hard feel­ings {toward~ the national organiza­tion],"he said. 1h:rereallywasn't any practical use for one another any more ... There wasn't a Jot they could offer us."

John Packard Both Packard andDevineagreed

that there was a considerable differ­ence in opinion ~tween the national organization and the local chaplcr as to how lhefratemity should continue.

..Mysclfandthebrothcrtil,odcan Wlderstand where the school and the national are coming from," said ~vine. 'Thereisnotalotkeepingu.s

from being rechartered ... ! don't re­aJly know what's going to happen. .. There are other avenues that are still up in the air."

" We are looking to preserve ;:,ur brotherhood as a unit as best as JXlS· sible, .. Packard explained.

Right now the fraternity meets on "what amounts to a weekly basis at a brother's apartment or wherever we can," he explained.

Both Packard and Devine com­mented on the difficulties associated wilh finding a n~w house in th!! Lan­caster area. Not only were they con­fromed with zoning restrictioru. but as Packard explained, .. acquiring a house to fit our means is not easy."

By L. JAY UKRYX Contributing Writer

The Student Congress of Fran• klin and Marshall College held ilS first meeting of the year Thursday night. and began to formulate an agenda for the 1989-90 acadenric year.

A major topic of discussion was the four day Na1ional Student G,iv­emmem Workshop held in Chic ,tgo last summer, whichther,,-,, lv.elected officersanended. Appn,, 1~ately 180 srudent government officers from 58 diverse colleges and universities across the nation discussed methods of improving their o,.._ n organizations.

David Keller ·~ l, Imerim Presi• dent of Student Congress, explained that. while F&M student congress­men are strictly elected volunteers, about 80 percent of those srudents auending the workshop were paid by their school~ 10 be represent.lti\·~s in their governments.

The 12 congres!-men and class officers who al.tended the meeting ai,,1 discussed plans for a rclreal foJ. lowing the Student Congress elec­tions on September 14 and 15. The retreat at Camp Hebron will last two days and is intended to educate the

new congressmen on their responsi• bilities, introduce them IO parliamen· tary procedw-c, and build enthusiasm and familiarity among these smdents.

The Congress also expressed a desire to establish more comact with the trustees of the College and sug­gested that the officers of the Con­gress and other srudentorganizations periodically hold informal lunches with them. Associate Dean of Stu­dents Aaron Shawnan. advisor to the Congress, suggested that the minutes be automatically sent to the trustees to ke.ep them informed of I.he Con­gress· current business.

Shatzman said that the Trustees are the Congress' biggest fan:--, and that they want to know what it is doing.

Additionally, the executives said they feel the n~d to build n1\1re en­thusiasm and a more serious. au.itudc within Ihe Congress if they are to improve the organization's image.

"We should learn how to make ourselvesreal ro ourselves ... and take ourselves more seriously, if we want everyone else to," said Treasurer Christina Patterson '90.

SECURITY NOTES Slightly Off Campus By MARK ST. AMANT & BILL BENSLEY

The Office of Safety and Secu­rity would like to welcome the entire student body back to F&M, and to congratulaie the R.A. 's and the Of­fice Of Residential Life on a smooth

Also. if you are that hard up, may we suggest lhe 1-900-PLA YMATE number, orpossibly 1-900-PAULA ABDUL?

Security would like to thank the student body for keeping the new residential hall undamaged as ofyeL Keep it up!

College Adds New Faculty

By STEVE SCALET Assistant News Editor

The cl~ of 1993 wasn't the only freshmen class to arriveoncam­pusthisyear. Therewasalsoasmaller. somewhat more educated., group of freshmen thu made their debut at the College-the new faculty appoint­ments for lhe 1989-1990 school year.

The College appointed 30 new faculty members for the upcoming school year. including IO professors on the tenure-track program.

"We worked very hard at an auempl 10 diversify the faculty," explained Associate Dean Roger Thomas ... In a faculty of 130.'' said Thomas, "to have one black faculty m.?mber is limited" in terms of diver­sity. -

As a result, Thomas said that the College is "working very hard to see the widest range of candid ales ... The new appointments include four mi­nority faculty and "three very fine women scholars m the Enghsh De­panmenL ''

Although the College would "like a bener balance (and is] anxious to have women and minorities.," Thomas stressed that ·•we fill every position wilh the best applic2nL The most imponant thing we can do is hire the vcry besl faculty member."

The majority of the new faculty are serving temporary positions with one to three year contracts. Most of these visiting professors will leave the College at the end of theconrracL

Occassionally, however, a visiting professor will be offere.d to continue teaching at the College on a tenure­track program.

Of the visiting faculty, Thomas especially noted Visiting Associate Professor Carlos Cortinez in the Sp~h departmenL He is a Chilean writer and reaches al the University of Chile.

Addir..ionally, teaching for only the fust semester is Visiting MU Kade . Distinguished Professor of German Klaus Jeziorkowski. Pro­fossor Jeziorkowski is an establishe.d literary critic and teaches al the Uni­versi~ of Frankfun.

The 10 faculty who were hire.d this ,jear on the tenure program are fillingpennanentvaca:ncies. Thcywill be frequently evaluated and partici­pate in an interim review after three years. After lhe sixti'l year of teaching at the College, they will be eligible

for tenure. The College also appointed 19

adj~t faculty members. These pro­fessors (oftenreappointe.dona yearly basis) teach a reduced load and are hired to fill a special need for the College. Professor Blevins' Public Address comses (Elements of Oral Commwiication and Persuasion) are

an example of specialty cours~ 1aug.iu by an adjunct professor.

The following is a list of the new

Kneedler Responds to Dean's Decision

President of the College A. Richard Kneedler expressed "con­siderable regret" in response to the announcement lhat Dean of lhe Col­lege Gordon K. Douglass would re­sign. Kneedler released a statement to the administraiion and faculty on August 31 regarding Douglass.

In the amouncemcnt, Kneedler said thatO::>uglass "requested thathis replacement be on hand no later than lheearly fa1lof 1990 so that he might relinquish his duties here by that time."

In Douglass' resign:nion lencr, he said 'The oppontm.ity to live regu­larly in Princetoncominues to attract

me." Kneedler wrote that '"indeed, I ha\.·e known that the degree and fre­quency of commutation imposed on Gordon by his workhe:re and Jane's [his wife} at the Princ.eton Theologi­calSeminarywereaprobJemforthem bolh.

.. We can therefore be especially

grateful both for all that Gordon is helping to accomplish al Franklin and MaJ"Shall and for his willingness to endure the Pennsylvania Turnpike so

to Douglass: "I believe that your deanship. brief as it has been, has nonetheless left significant improve­menlS to lhe College .. J greal1y look forward to the year which remains for us to work together. Given your abilitytoeffectgreatprogressinshon time periods, 1989-90 should be an excellent and memorable year. as well."

The President also reponed his plan to replace the Dean through a Serach Committee procedures begun with a meeting with the Professional Standards Commince.

Panhellenic Council Clarifies Rush Rules

The three sororities still func­tioning at F&M are attempting to for­mulate a specific Panhellenic Coun­cil constitutional ammendmcnt that would clearly define the regulations for on-campus parties hosted by members of any of the sororities as they relale to rushing.

Currently, the Panhellenic Cotn1-cil enforces an unwritten regulation that no sorority be allowed to invite freslm1en women to parties given by a sorority. A party in Thomas Hall last weekend demonstrated the ne­cessity of developing a written law regarding rush regulations and par­ties, according to Presidcm of the Panhellcnic Council, Mindy Fox '90.

Prescnl1y, each sorority has honored the unwritten understanding among them, according to both Fox and Chi Omega Director of Publicity Darragh Donnelly. However. Fox said that although OU Omega Presi­dent Carrie Scranton '90 moderated the party in Thomas, Uleregulalion is unfeasible and cannot continue 10

funcr..ion properly. ··1t is :m impossible task 10 re-

strict the parties to freshmen all se­mester in the way lhat we are doing it now," said Fox. "'The Panhellenic Council will begin discussion on a wriuen rule next week,·• she said.

Fox said that a proposal was brought forth at lhe end of last year, but thlil, in its present form, it was voted down and will never be passed without significant revision.

Sororities function with tv.o periods of rush: one in the fall for upperc1assmen., and one in lhe spring for freshmen and upperclassmen. No rushing is permitted prematurely for any sorority.

'The intent is Lo avoid 'dirty rushing.· and to ensure that each sorority has an equal opponunity in rushing," said Donnelly. "Right now it is hard, becauseeach.,sorority is not working with equal resources,·• she said.

Sigma Sigma Sigma acquired a house in September I 988, while nei­ther Chi Omega nor Alpha Phi have

houses. "We don"t want to scare any of

the freshmen away ... said Donnelly.

With a Hop, Skip, and a Jump In the 22 October 1985 number of The College Reporter Editor-in-Chief

Thomas B. Flynn wrote, "Students are often chided for not taking enough respon­sibility for their lives at F&M. The establishment of a 'student congress· would provide students the opportunity to become more responsible and accountable for the conduct of matters of principle concern to the student body ... lf it is to be successful, a 'student congress' must find its roots in the interest and effort of students.· Tom wrote that only a few days after the College Senate hadlinal!y agreed that a new student government might be a good idea.

This semester the Congress will be entering its third session, and "interest and eftort" are more important than ever. Candidates and voters alike should be reminded that ~nterest" ought really to mean something close to obsession, and that "effort· has to be blood, sweat, and tears.

In the years which it took to get the Student Congress founded, a succes­sion of committed groups of students gave immense amounts of time to the founding of the organization which already too many seem to be taking for granted. The Congress may have money, and it may have considerable power, but it still barely knows how to walk.

So far, the body has been learning through trial and error. Several major amendments were passed last year to remedy a certain lack of foresight which we were guilty of in the original drafting (and re-drafting, and re-re-<lrafting of the Consrnution). But words on paper can never replace the hard work of those sitting in the Congress.

First of all, candidates should put all thoughts of their resumes out of their minds. The work involved in being a congressman simply isn't worth it, if you aren't doing it because you really want to.

Second, those elected must know that among the requirements of repre­sentation is becoming a College issues "junkie.· If the Congress is ever going to further the needs of the student body, those who are a part of it must become thoroughly familiar with the larger picture. They have to kno;ov precisely what it is that the Board of Trustees does, what the Administration does, what the Faculty does, and what that leaves to the students. ·

Third, congressmen will need to learn parliamentary procedure. how. to write a committee report, how to research an issue, and all of the other skills which are needed to represent a constituency well. Too many in the past have assumed that all they needed to do was show up for the bi-weekly meetings, and some didn't even do that.

Finally, the Congress has to be realistic. Not only is the Congress· power limited, but so is the College's capacity to change quickly (and rightly so). Even though four years is ihe entirety of a student's time here, important changes have to be thorougly researched, argued, debated and planned for. To the Administra­tion four years is just lour years. Patience and foresight are key.

Those who are elected this week owe it to the whole student body, and to the College, to take their jobs very seriously. Hopefuliy, by May the Congress will know not only how to walk, but how to hop, skip, and jump.

Post Script Braun, Braun, where are you, buddy, It's four in the morning and we're not done, And my mind is turning to putty.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Capital Campaign Great Success

To the Editor: To the College Community:

The front page article (CR edition of Sep·

tember 5, 1989) headed "College Capital C~­paign" is. in most respects, accurate. However, 11

containstwoparagraphswhichmaymisleadyour

readers. When the Campaign was announced in

October 1987, S25.5 million (not S2.5 million) had been given or p}edged. I am pleased to repon that tho? October 19, 1987 stock market fall-off had essentially no effect on Campaign receipts and that gifts to meet those early pledges have continued comi.,g in 21 an -=~cellent pace. As stated in the article., the Campaign now stands at $47 million and is ahead of schedule-by the

way, a full year ahead!

Gifts from the Campaign have alreadv funded three major buil~g projects, several di;. tinguished professorships for faculo/ and increased student financial aid, efforts for which the Col­lege has received all funds and commitments necessary. We are now in the Campaigns final phase. which aims to finish funding lhe Science Library/Computing Center before the buildino opens next fall and to provide a number of im~ provements to athletic facilities.

Thank you for allowing me to clarify the record. The campus community should know that the Campaign is aremarkablesuccess, thanks

I Am Very Serious

In this year's first edition of the College Reporter, I asked Ihe Franklin & Mmhall com­munity not forget its expressed commitment to

minority affairs. Tne piece was strong and I ex­pected criticism. Criticism is usually healthy. However, criticism can be dangerous when the opposition is ignorant of facts or distorts reality.

In last week's edition of The Reporter, I was characterized as a hypocrite and a complainer.

Neither charge is valid. First, Jeffrey Boerger accused me of praising the College for a quota system. Mr. Boerger, carefully read my initial letter and read the Faculty's Special Plan for Minority Hiring. Isaid,'"Thefacultyoverwhelm­ingly adopted a plan that was designed to attract

minority personnel to the College. The plan set a

goal of hiring two minority faculty members over each of the next three years."

There is a huge difference between a quota and a goal. Under a quota system, F & M would

be required to hire two minorities over the next three years. The College is under no such obliga­tion. The community realized thaiminoritieswere rejecting F&M and decided to attempt to address thesiwation. Our Faculty simply set a goal of two minority professors as a measure of effectiveness of its efforts. If there are more than two minority professors who are acceptable for luring, this

instirution can employ all of them. Titis is why I do not support q!JOtas. However, the institution does not have to hire a..1.y minorities if no suitable candidates are identified. In the future please check your facts before criticizing someone.

Next, MathewSchwanzsuggeststhatlought to" put my College where my mouth is." Mr. Schwanz's letter aggravated me more than the fmt letter. When 1 speak to prospective minority students about F&M. I highlight the positives. However, I try to be honest, and honesty is what every perspective student descrv es. Mr. Schwartz, I suggest that you speak with the admissions of­ficials about my and other Black Students in­volvement in the recruitment of minorities.

Who do you lhink hosts minority srudents when they are on campus? Minority students host !hem. Who do you think the volunteers forte-

lathons that coi:!t.act potential minOrity students are? Minority srudents are the volunteers. \\'ho provides Ihe Admissions department with the

names of high schools, academic enrichment programs with bright minority students, and other potential students'? Minority srudents provide thisinformation.lpersonallyhaverecommended F&M to potential faculty members and students and made certain that College officials were aware of these individuals. In addition, the re­cently fonned Black Alumni Organization is aiding in the recruitment effort. So, Black and other minority smdents do not reject our role in

therecruitingprocess instead they embraceiL In the future. please check yom facts before you

criticize some.one. Finally, I will respond to Gabe Neville's

charge that I used desperate tactics and rhetoric.

I am not an extremisL Everyone who followed this issue last year knows that there are a variety of dimensions to this problem. In many areas F&M has made improvements. However, by many College officials' own admissions many of those improvements are only partial and must be supported by further action. Thus, the question is whether F&M will be content with its modest start or forge further toward a more diverse

comrmmity. It is my hope that the answer is lhe latter. Mr. Boerger touched on a brcader curricu­lwn, something I and others advocated last year, as a posible response. I am in total agrecmenL Why aren't people discusing how we can do better?

Additionally, I was stunned by the accusa­

tion that I insulted people. Ihaveneverpcrsonally attacked anyone in my writings. Gabe. you know that is the truth. Who did I insult in my initial letter?

In conclusion, the issues that have been raised over the last couple of weeks are more important than me. What does it mean to bi! a diverse institution ? What should we do to be a diverse College? I tis something that we all should

think about.

Angola After Independence Anasuya Dubey

Ms. Du.bey discusses thefuiure of the Afri­can coun1ry of Angola.

This newly independent African cowmy, Angola. born admist anned conflict, has become the focus of the east-west struggle i., southern Africa.. The pernicious role of South Africa has added to the complexity of the sicuation.

Angola o·btained independence on Novem­ber 1 lth.1975,after500yearsof Portuguese rule, characterized by the slave trade. Men had been bartered, with the help of greedy rulers of king­doms, for a few trinkets and together with epi­demics (especially Smallpox). the slave trade was lhe prime depopulating factor. It is estimated that about 8 million Angolans were enslaved and transported to Brazil the Caribbean and thesouth­em U.S.A.(the current population of Angola is 8.9million).

The Portuguese were barbariousrulers. They did not leave a single skilled worker, even news­paper boys were Portuguese before independ­ence, as Portugal exported its unemployed to

Angola. Black Angolans were not allowed IO witness any manufacturing process, and they were treated with contempt and enslaved.. All the Portuguese left behind was civil stife between the movements that were struggling for power when independence came abouL

Themovemen!-5weretheMPLA(Movimento Popular de Libertasao Angola), headed by Dr. Agostnho Neto, UNIT A(Uniao Nacional para a lndependencia TotaldeAngola),headed by Jonas Savimbi who collalx>rate.d with the colonial au­thorities to impede the progress of the MPLA and the FNLA(Frente. Nacional de Libertasao An­gola). headed by president Moburu's brother-in­law. Holden Roberto. As d1.e date for independ­ence approached, ihe Angolan internal simation got entangled in the east-west struggle. The USA and president .Mobutu of Zaire intensified their support to the FNLA. South Africa became the newpatronofUNITAwhiletheMPLA'sdepend­ence on the USSR and Cuba correspondingly in­creased.·

On the eve of independence. in November 1975, Angola was invaded from the north by Zaire an forces assiting theFNLA. This operation was apparently co-ordinated by the CIA. With the help of Cuban military persoID1el and exper­tise, the MPLA decisively defeated the northern invasion , and the Solllh African forces retreated back to Namibia in lhe face of a southwards Cuban-MPl.A advance.

A Marxist government supported by Cuban lroOps and Soviet advisors. who were for the liberation of Namibia, did not suiI the white tribe of South Africa at all(nor, incedently, did it suit lhe US government). Ever since independence in 1975, South Africahas done its best to dest.abilize the strongly 'internationalist' MPLA. "Angola", ambassordor Maria Haller pointed out, .. is not dependent on South Africa, unlike lhe landlocked countries of Zimbabwe, Zambia and Mozam­bique, as it is.a vast country with a long coastline. Angola threatens South Africa's occupation of NanuDia(whose independence is now being ne­gociated) by g iving refuge lO members of

SWAPO(South West Africans People's Organ­isation. One of the terms of Namibia·s independ­ence is that Angola must expell all SW APO elements), and they would like to destroy us al any cosL"

.. UNIT A", she said, "has only succeeded in causing destruction, suffering and death."

UNIT A, inc:edently, is lhe group of 'free­dom fighters • that president Bush meant to con­tinue supporting, or so we heard during the presi­dential debates last year. In fa~t Jonas Savimbi has visited the US and was received lhere as one of the worlds leading freedom fighters; this man who had sacrificed Africal1 nationalis! principles and collaborated with the South African govem­ment. who would never recognize him as fully human anyway; being a black man. In facti Savimbvi has been known lO 'wittingly ' remark that "when you are in a pool with Alligators. you don't look at the colour of the hand that is pulling you ouL"

The truth is that Savimbi is a mere traitor who is drowning his own country in his quest for power. Any country at war is tragic. You have only to walk the streets of Ulanda(Angola's capital) and listen to the people talk IO judge the

saddness. I heard that a slave was sold by lhe value of

his teeth, so many Angolan 's damaged their own teeth lO avoid being sold. The slave crade must

have been damaging and degrading to the Ango­lan people.

Today. they still seem to suffer from the hwniliation and brutality enforced on them by their white rulers, and, unfornmately, by their own greedy people in high positions. The people are depressed andhwnble. In fact, Iheirpassivity towards their present plight is deppressing. They do not look at the era of !:heir colonialism with hatred; they respect their colonists with a sort of dog. like devotion.

The stteets of Ulanda are littered with gar• bage that has not been cleared since independ­ence. The buildings are run-down and the street lights have long since ceased [O function. 1llere

are a fuw bazzars where things are avaliable for sale or barter, but there is not a single proper shop, except for the hard currency scores. There are no restaurants except the ones at the hotels were one mustpayindollars. Onedoesnotseemanystray animals on the street as they are consumed by the hlDlgry population. Fish is available :in abun• dance and perhaps that is why people do not staJ'Ve to death in the capital.

The roads are in shambles and . there are many buildings only half-constructed, as there are no fi.mds or materials 10 complete them.

Angola, I am told is a beautiful comtry scenically. In Luanda, the beaches are the only lv-..autiful scenes. Maybe now that Namibia's in­dependence is being negociated and the Cuban troops have withdrawn, Angola can rebuild its cities and society. At the moment, because of the selfishness of various countries and a traitor like Savimbi, the prospects are very dismal

Goodnight Jesse! Brandon K wiatek

Mr. Kwiatek addresses the issue of govern­menl sponsored ort.

I sleep peacefully through the night, not because Senator Jesse Helms crusades tirelessly for my morality through budget restrictions. but because his most recent proposal convinces me that such a disturbing zealot won't receive much support from fellow, more capable, Congress­men. Helms, in retaliation for controversial, government supported art exhibits, introduced a bill which permits the National Endowment for the Ans to assist only those :!.l'!ists who perfonn within the boundaries of his defined respectabil­ity. Helms demands that financially aided artists be forbidden to "promote, disseminate or pro­duce" any work .. obscene or indecent" or offen• sive to "the object or beliefs of the adherents of a particular religion or non~religion." Now I'm sure this nonh carolinian senator believes he has only the United States' best interests in mind by

his proposa1, but he foolishly disregards its mher­ent faults. The proposal's mainerrorremains its blaiantam­biguity. The diversity of beliefs exist.ant in the United States eliminates any possibility for a definition of either artistic obscenity or artistic of­fensiveness. Hebns' desired NEA has no allow­ance to subsidize exhibits containing both nudity and renowned cultural worth. Will any depic­tions of nudity qualify as obscenity, and if so, is Helms prepared to condemn classical Greek sculptors as lust-filled perverts? I suppose Sena­tor HeJms · solution to lhispredicament is a differ­entiation between tasteful and graruitous nudity. The idea of a Congressional task force laboring several months over a catalogue of unpermined sexual perversions and shameful body parts for museums and galleries amuses me; what saddens, however, is the large amount of time wasted which could be spent more successfully on any of the pressing social or environmental issues. No person slightly familiar with art history can deny the presence of sentiments antagonistic to some recognized religion in many artworks. Aft

remains a vivid examination of the human ques­tions forreligious practices; Helms denies Ameri­cans this human right to observe and create ques­tions of belief and ritual. Every organized reli­gion, from Christian sects to Judaism to Hindu­ism, has been, and always will be, the subject of artistic ridicule and criticism. And each religion miraculously outlives its critics wilhout the help of Jesse Helms. I question also the meaning of a "non-religion." I would define atheism as a non-religion. Atheists

· then easily can claim offense with portrayals of any religion's beliefs, thus eliminating financial support for a large amount of anistic endeavors and historical collections. Maybe non-religion includes prominent factions, such as feminists. Sexist images blatant1y exist in a ,great deal of classical and contemporary art. neither of which deserves funding under Helms' proposition. And should the NEA be forced to concede to the twisted opinions of. bigots. and exclude artists who depict minorities 2nd their concerns from government funds? No Jogic exists behind the limitation on those art pieces which may prove offensive to a particular non.religion; everything hypotheticaJJy can be offensive to someone. I suspect Helms ' sugges­tion could result in the removal of all art from the National Endowment for the Arts. Even land­scapes, lO appease those anti-pastoral masses who loathe shrubs and m01.mtain chains. Just like Helms, I dismiss some artwork as inap­propriate and senseless; but to suggest that public reaction become the sole criteria for government­standard art is ludicrous. I entrust those educated officials of the NEA who recognize current trends among the artistic community with the responsi­bility to determine which applicams deserve govemmemsuppon. I am neither an art critic nor art experL And I don't pretend to be. Senator Helms might do the United States a greater serv­ice by allowing the NEA committees to decide artistic worthiness also, and stop playing the final. tyrannical expcrL Good night, Jesse.

Congratulations, Ms. Mayor! Matthew Schwartz

In the past, a woman running for office was often subjected to some of the worst rough and tumble in politics. The opposition loudly ques­tioned the competence of a woman and dug deeply into the only shallowly buried chauvanism 's in society to defeat her. The press, often conserva­tive and never unbiased, tended to look askance at a women doing a "man's" job. In the most nationally visible attempt made by a woman IO reach high office, Geraldine Ferraro's attempt at the vice presidency, her husband's possible in­discretions were used against her, and her status

as a woman aspiring to be" a heanbeat from lhe presidency" brought back those not too deeply buried prejudices. Even Dan Quayle, a young man with far less political experience and his own probleinsin the press was Jess of a detriment to the Bush campaign. Because, in spite of his possible inexperience, cowardice. and old boy network manipulation, he was still a man.

By this time,youmustclearlywonde:r; what's the point? We all know that women in politics have a ·harder time than men, but why rehash it now?

Why? Because of what I bclie~e may be a unique occurrence in Pennsylvania. possibly in the na­tion. This summer, after the mayoral primaries in Lancaster, one of the most conservativecommu~ nities in Pennsylvania, not one woman was left running. Not one. that is, but two. Both parties advanced a female candidate. The question of female competence has become mooL The old prejudices cannot affect the campaign. the old boy networks must swallow their pride or stand quietly by, because this time, come November, Democrat or Republican, liberal or conservative,

a woman will become the Mayor of Lancaster. What is far more important, though, is that she will gel the job because of her abilities and opin• ions alone, with her sex as unimportant a statistic as her birthday. Even the most chauvanistic voters will be forced to choose a qualifed woman, because both parties feel that a woman is the best person for the job. Congratulations. Ms. Mayor. It's about time.

Who's Supporting the War Effort Adam Bayl11s

Picrure this- (there's no humor intended): Last Friday, Brian and I went to the All­

American Spans Bar in Baltimore, rode up the esca..lator, and at the top. were greeted by a man standing behind a table covered with Bi.Ito graphed basketball jerseys- Kevin McHale, Larry Bird. Magic Johnson, etc.

The guy said that he: was collecting for a raffle: I think they were supposed to be giving away some of these shirts. Funds were going to a "drug a wa.eness program for children." Rather abs em mindedly, we each purchased a ticket­s 1 for one; S5 for eight.

\\' e then rumed our anention to the evening· s activities, and patiently set aside the idea of winning these autographed shirts. Then. I thought to myself, ""!" ait a minut.e. Is this for or against wha1 President Bush said on national T.V. Tues­day night? Do you really need ··awareness" during Prohibition?"

In case you missed i1.., Bush recited the essence of ;,he"~ational Party Line, "asl25Cribed by one of the Chicagc Seven, and that is "'God is greaL ComrmIPisim is e\·iL And drugs are the work of the rle\i.l.''

According to Bush and his post-speech prop.agar;d.2. efforts, drugs <!re the rudimentary problem in our society- the paramounl cause of black girls dropping out of high school, having abortions or leaving babies abandoned at hospi­tals nationwide. And because we Americans are the authorities on subjects concerning morality, we should go into the country ofColombi2. (and maybe Peru and Bolivia--and maybe even Cuba somewhere do~"!l the road) and v.ipeom its entire economy (in humanit.2:rian terms, thai means destroy the livelihood of thousands of natives) be.cause the ·•cgly American" still wants to rule everybody's life according to one particular set of beliefs and values.

Bonom line, folks- Bush thinks Prohibi­tion would have worked if we used our military might in the way that Ronnie Reagan always dreamed off {or even Dick Nixon?}---all out war.

When some guy came over the sound sys­tem a.."ld announced winnersortheraffledra\,\,ing, without calling any raffle numbers, I was even more intrigued about this fund raiser.

So, whar was the answer when I went back

to the table: Q: "Is th.is for or against what Bush said on

Tuesday night?" [By the way. after I JXlSa:l this question that

I thought at first was a hannless question that any rational, responsible, and concerned citizen would consider, I immediately received a look from this

man thar I'm not sirre whether I should describe as surprise, disgust., or impatience. Anyway ... }

k. [after some hesitation] It's anti-drug .. . Great answer, Bud! Does that really tell me

anything? Anti-d..-ug what? Who is this guy? Who's behind him?

Is it the Republicans (or the CJ.A.) begin­ning to collect and hoard dollars for their war effort?

Or is this the resistance? Are these the people trying to fight back against the charging might of an oppressive govemmenr? Who are they?

Are Lliey members of the mob? I mean, who else would have a vested interest- money-in

seeing that members of the resisW1ce can ward off their enemy's charge? Don't forget that the world drug trade is not just a couple of guys in Medellin? I hope it goes ~ithout saying, t.ie mob ispowaful.

So why are our American leaders so deter­mined to fight this drug war? Doesanyonereally think that a bigoted, narrow-minded. Commie­hating military general is crying o.,·er the poor,

black kids shooting up in the gheno alleys? Some people may remember hearing er

reading tile words of the I are Saul AliilSky, who organized the Back of the Yard group in Chi­cago- people, especially those in Church and State, have a way of masking their actions which are motivared by greed and self-interest in the gcise of hwnanitarianism, _ morality, a.Ttd reli­gious values.

So, what's really going on? Is the Stare Departmen! concerned that if the dreg business continues to thrive as it is, Colombia and other Central American cownries will amass consider amounts of money- which trar.sla..es into power-andalterthedelicateintemationalpowcr balance? Does all of this ·'d:rug war" business really tie back i.Ttto Re:agan·s efforts 10 get ta"<­payers • money to the contra' s fight.i..1.g in Nicara­

gua? Is your head spinning yet about all the

implications of these ideas? Let's put it in a nutshell: the drug cartel is

not just a couple of puny guys in a hut And trying to tell them that they're doing a "no-no," is like trying to tell Budweiser and Philip Morris th.al their products cause millions of deaths each year, so they have to stop pr.xluction.

And you know that wouldn't happen. As. you get into the excitement of the1989 National Football Season.just ask yourself where profes­sional sports would be withoutBud andMarlboro. And then ll}' to tell all lhepeoplei., Colombia and all the members of the mob that the party's over.

'Th.is was the starting point of a new philoso­phy of Progress· and materialized during the

The people during the colonial times had an umISual sense of control and understood the self­imposed limitations pfaced on human existence:

They lived in a world that was open and malleable, a world of their O\.\.'Il making if they set themselves to the rask. Their O\\TI lives, and the lives of their forebears in the New World had been a continuous break ;ith the past, a continuous revision of inherited institu­tions and constitutions, a continuous exercise of resoirrcefulness, and they took for granted that those S\\ift currents of change which had brought them to the New World and had transformed their way oflife., would flow as swiftly in the future and

"If you choose to lead, you must follow But if you fall, you fall alone. If you should stand. then who's to guide you If I knew the way, I would take you home."

I wish I had the answer, but I believe that there's an answer among all of us to the problems of this world. Men of the Enlightenment wrote volumes on the creation of an ideal world. They critiqued, synthesized, edited, studied, and lived the works of others; it was today's counterpan of a massive

group think. Together, with the knowledge of ideas generated all over the globe. they saw lhe fruits of their efforts; there ideas came together and blended and were finally realized right here in American. Our counny was founded on the ideas and actions of so-called .. common man."

ISSUES.AT FRANKLIN AND MARSHALL

F &M Lacks Sexual Awareness Jonathan L. Kellerman

Mr. Kelluman.tah!son the. questionof Ja­

ual awareness al Franklin and Marshall.

We often find ourselves being so lockedinlO the grind and m2chinery of everyday life. conse­quently. we oftentaketheveryimportmtaspecr.s of our life for granted . . How many times do we really lend comideration to our health. in particu­lar. to the consequences or"olQ' sexuality?

Wilh. the growing concern of sexual dis­eases, AIDS in panicular, and of the growing rate of unwanted pregnancies. it is ahnost mind-bog­gling how we as a community can adopt such a casual altitude toward these problems. These are serious epidemics, which if ignored, poses a grave threattohwnanheallhandwelfare. Noblamecan be directly placed on a particularpetSOn or group, yet it seems obvious that due to the somewhat lax auirude of this conservative institutio.D and the overall apatheticattirudeofthesrudentbody, t¼ problem has been urmec.essarily ignored.

The fust problem which arises is that of lhe ~tradiction between the college's proposed ideologies and its actions. This instirution empha­sizes its commitment to making this college a community. its responsibility to the-srudent body to promote its welfare and provide it wilh a liberal education.

In order for a true awareness of the problems rel&ed to sexual activity to be achieved. the col­lege must liberalize its views. The impression that is given is that because this is a small and sheltered.community, and the general anitude to­ward sex is somewhat sedated, lhe college is trying ro go about its business in a quiet manner in which they feel no one will be offended. We aJl know what the common cliche is about silence. If lhe college is going to promote its vision of a aue

- community in wffich they are directly involved. then lhe college must activate itself to a point of direct and intense inre:rvention.

The primary c:oncem rhalarises withrespecl to this argument is that of the condom machines. Fust, acknowledgement must be given to the college for taking this importam. step to imple­menting thesemachines oncampus. But, itseems to be the genera] consensus, at least among the srude:nt body, that more must be done and some

changes need to be made. Presently, the condom machines are located in the laundry rooms. The college feels that this is the best place to put them so that they can be obtained wilhout having to offend anyone.in the process. Again, the problem of offending people has arisen. No more offense will be taken if someone sees them in the bath­room than in the laundry room. And why should offense be taken'! Condoms are not here to make . people feel uncomfortable, but to help protect people from the possible consequences of their sexual activity. They are now an accepted part of our lifesty]e and the:re should ·be no tat::?oo sur­rounding the existence and use of ~doms. By hiding them. the college is sending the message that condoms are not that important and that lhey even are offensive in nature. Condoms should be approached with a positive attitude rather than a

secretive one. This leads to the gTOwing demand for the re­

placement of the condom machines in the resi­dence hall baI.rJOoms. The advantages of this move would be easier accessability and a gener­ally more comfortable feeling about the existence ofcondoms. ltwouldallowthecollegethcoppor­lllllity to express itself as aconccmedand liberally minded institution who Iis1ens to the growing needsofitsswdentbody.

alleviate the taboo surrounding condoms. This could only benefit the srudent body, for it would allow them to use them with a more re]axed state

of mind. ltisonlyobviousthatsinccthebaihroom is frequented moreso than lhe laundry room, the presence of the condom would beoome more apparent in the srudent's eye, thus possibly rein­forcingthem tousethemmoreoflen. Outofallthe condom machines on campus. I.he one which sells

the highest volume is located in the College Cen­ter. If this suit could be emulated and condom machines be placed in selected bathrooms in the dormitories, lhe:n maybe a similar panem would

besun. Another area which must be emphasized is

th.at of intense interVention. If !he college lcu lhe

swde:nt oody lcnowthat lhey want to play a role, then maybe more can be accomplished. 1ne de­partment on Health Services has in its office pamphlets on sexually transmined diseases, and periodically sends out a flyer concerning these health issues. This service must be 12ken a step farther. These pamphJcts should bedistnbulCd to every student O!l campus for very few students will go out of his way to the infinnary lO read them. There is also a commitlee on the sexual awareness problem but it is seldom heard of and fails to make its presence exrensively known. The opposite must be done. These groups and organi1.ations have lO actively reach out to the srudents and let them know lhere are people who are just as concerned and lhat are willing to help. Advertisements in the newspaper are often not enough to promote awareness.

The finger of guilt must also be pointed at the student body. Although it is not likely to be admiued,. many students are very unaware of the threat posed by sexually transmin.eddiseases and W\wanted pregnancy. Our ignorance is not hcl~ ingsolvetheseproblems. Again.irisoftenfound that lhe students are shielded by a false sense of security presenled by this homogeneous, hidden andcoriservativeenvironmenL Wehaveadopted the .. itcan'thappentous, '' attirude. which can be

as deadly as the diseases lhemselves. We must wake up from this utopian vision and recognize the severity of our social and sexual situation. Since we are aU players in this game, each of us can be affected.

The administration has in ways pushed for snident activity but lias been met with only a brick wall. A prime ex&rnple of this is the peer educators. These people have assumed the resp:msibility to be informants and advisors to the swdent body on such issues as sexual disease and contraception use. Unforrunately. for both the administration and the srudent, these people have shown lillle enthusiasm toward their goaJ. Their lack of effort can only be 1ranslauxl by tho students into apathy.

Also, unfortunate is the fact thaISome ofthe activities that the school does provide. such as lectures during orientation and resident assistant sessions. are often ignored and mocked as being nothing more than a trivial waste of time. The school must realize that lhe best way to c.ommu­nicate with swdents is not to hold mandatory lectures, but to asswne a more casual yet infor­mative environment. If the swdents feel com­fortable with the environments, they are more likely to take what is being discussed more seri­ously.

A peer coW1cil should be creared that oon­sists of educated students, ttained administra­tors, and medical professionals who are dedi­cated lO informing the student body and actively becoming an integral pan of increasing the sru­dent awareness of these pressing health prob­lems. 11tis group, serious yetcasua1 in its setting, should off er a council center where srudenlS can talk with other stud~ts or professionals in pri­vale about their problems. A1so, rape education and awareness should be offered. for this i.OO is becoming a growing social problem. Educa­tional programs in lhe fonn of workshops on specific issues, like AIDS, should be given and made interesting to the student by offering speak­ers ranging froffi actual patients to lhe physicians and hospice workers who care °for them. Free contraception should be distributed for those who need it and are WlComforlable with lhe existing means of obtaining it People, women in particular. should be able to be referred to Womcn·s Clinics off campus for further assis­

W!ce.

A move of this sort would incorporate bot'1 the studenlS and administral.ion and would there­fore raise the enthusiasm of both. 'This would be seen by other students and translated as a con­certed effort on behalf of the college. 1bis integration is an essential first step to es-tablish­ing an effective and activated organiution de­voted complete]y to the promotion of sexual awareness and the overall safety and welfare of the swdent body.

PNP Option Needs Change David c. Murray

Mr.MurrayarguesinfavorofaPNPOption and calls for clarificaiion of the grey areas con­cerning the PNP Option .

As the deadline for the Pass/No Pass Option comes upon us.September 12. 1989,ir isfittinglO discuss the state of the rules regulating the PNP Option. I am sure that all the members of the College Community have had sufficient time to make the decision whether or not to take a course PNP. After all, we have had almost two whole wcelc.s 10 determine whether or not the PNP Op­tion wouJd be appropriate for any of our courses. In Ibis protracted time period, I'm sure we have

all had substantial feedback from our profesors in all of our courses as to just how demanding the

courses are going to be. If you think I'm serious than you should seriously consider being an ad­ministralOr.

I. however, do believe the Pass/No Pass OptionisavitalpartoftheCollcge. The Pass/No Pass Option, and the rules for its use, will soon undergo its greatest scrutiny in fifteen years. It bas long been apparent that the Pass/No Pass Option is a policy without an official philosophy. TM Coll~g~ Handbooknotessomeof the rules of the Pass/No Pass Option, i.e. the two week deadline at the beginning of the scmesla, but is silent on why the Pass/No Pass Option exists or how it should be used. You may ask. "So what if th.ereisnoPhilosophy'!". Thcresultofnothaving a philosophy is lhat the Committee on Academic Status becomes flooded with petitions concern­ing the ra!hcr gray areas of the policy. Most of these petitions are from students who have taken a course Pass/No Pass and want to change it back lO regularly gradedstarusorswdents who want to change a course to Pass/No Pass after the two week deadline. Unless there is an extremely compelling reason, the Commiuee on Academic Starus(CAS),deniesmostofthesepetitions.Ican au.est to that personally. If there was an official philosophy of the Pass/No Pass Option. then the

number of petitions to CAS would be reduced and, more importantly, the rules governing the PNP Option would gain legitimacy.

Any philosophy of the PNP Option will be constrUCled around courses that are not pan of a student's major, minor, or College Srudics Re­quiremenlS. 1n essence , the PNP Option is a policy concerned with asrudent'se]ectivecourses and lhe philosophy of the PNP Option should reflect this. What I mean is that the PNP Option should encourage srudents to branch out into new disciplines with their electives, not discourage them from experiencing new types of cowses.

Onec.omponentoflhenewphilosophyshould be a change in the rules regarding changing a Pass/No Pass course back to a regularly graded course. Allowing srudenlS to change a course taken PNP back to regularly graded is definitely advantageous lO both the indi\·idual srudent and the College. A student will be motivated 10 work more and learn more if he knows that there is a possibility of receiving a standard grade in the course. Take this all too conunon example. A srudent takes a course that he isn ·1 sure of so he takes i tPNP. Thesrudentfindsthatheenjoys the course and works hard and is doing well enough by mid.semester that he needs to do practically nothing else in the second half of the course to receive a P. The student is now tom from working hard in the class and the frustration that he will only receive a P for his endeavors. If the student knew thal he could receive a grade for his endeav­ors. then there would be noting holding the stu­dent back from al.tacking the books in full force, and the:cby learning more.

·l_..ast year I inlIOdiJced a motion to the Stu­dent Congress supporting a change in the ru!~

regarding changing from PNP status to regularly graded status. The motion was passed llltani ­mously by the Student Congress in early Decem­ber and sent to the Program Review Commiucc. (The Program RevicwCommiueeisoomposed of Swdents, FacuJty, and Administratars). I was informed by the Chairman of lhe Program Re­view Committee, in late January. that the commit­tee did not necessarily oppose my motion. but it seemed hard 10 deaJ with in the absence of an official philosophy of lhc PNP Option. I was assured that the Program Review Commiuee was going to develop an official philosophy of the PNP Option, and then make any recommenda­tions for changes in the PNP Option, in lhe light of the new offic ial philosophy, by the end of lasl semester. Needless to say. the Pi:ogram Review

· Commineedidn'tfinishitswork]astsemester.Not only has the commiuee not made any recommen­d.a1ions. but it hasn'tevencomeclose to deciding on a philosophy. I was recently informed by a respected member of the Program Review Comminee that it would not be until the end of the Fall semester that the committee reaches any conclusion.$. If the committee does finish its work by the end of the semester, which is far from ce:tain,oneentirecale:nderye.arwi.llhaveclapscd since my motion was passed by the Student Congress. Although the oomminees involved. and it is not just PRC, may have excuses for why it has taken them so long to to get around to the PNPproblcm, the plain truth is that thesnx:lentsof this coUege arc still suffering under an irral.ionaJ and unecessarily restrictive policy.

As if this situation were not tragic enough. there are people, who shall remain nameless, that are atlCmpting to torpedo this wonhwhile change in the rules regarding PNP. This is rather surpris­ing since no-0ne to date has given me a rational coherent argument as to why my suggested revi­sion wou]d hann lhc school's academic repUl.a­tion or the srudents • education. What is even more shocking is that there are faculty members who serve on these committees lhat are trying to abolish the PNPoption altogether. Those faculty members, who shall also remain nameless. seem to think th.lt the PNP Option d~sn't promote '"real academics." Aside from implying some type of machismo 10 what the academics should be, wh.ich I find hard to take seriously, this argwnent is also wrong. Although the professors of pro-abolition movement don't believe it, there are studenlS who do use the PNP Option to ex­plore academic interests, no t just to lighten the load of the semester as the abolitionists would argue. What the abolitionists don't W1derstand is that if my revision was actually implemented they would actually be better off. As I explained above, my suggcslCd revision would encourage students who took a course PNP and decided they really liked 10 work harder and learn more because they would havC an incentive, their true and honest measure of their performance, to encourage them. Such a revision would create an academic world which is closer to the" real academics" type world that the abolitionists dream of. Even if my sug­gestion is proven wonhless, there is sti ll are very powerful reasons why PNP should not be abol­ished. One of them is that PNP allows students to explore and broaden their education, which is one of the fundamental goals of; liberal arts educa­tion. The best solution. however, to the problems the studenlS and faculty have with the present PNP Option would be lO change the rules regard­ing changing from PNP lOregularly graded starus.

unless the homework. was modified. Also nixed from the class were

assignments scch as masruibating, taking a bubble bath. a.'ld viewing 80 slides of ma1e and female genitalia. Swdents will get to see a film that explicitly portrays sexual intercourse.

This isn't the first time that such "sex" courses have gotten a rise out of schools' governing boards.

Last year at Villanova Univer­sity, a Catholic school in Pennsylva­

show a sexually explicit video in a .. Christian Marriage in the Modem World" course.

And in 1986 Cerritos College in California dropped two sex-relation­ship courses after a debate about whethe. the course material was "ap­propriate."

Phi Kappa Sigma Will Consider Former ZBTs

Those students who might be­come independent, and therefore eligible to pledge another fraternity, will be considered and voled upon as individuals.

"Some members of ZBT made an all out anernpt ro get ro know the house and the members here," said one member of Phi Kappa Sigma. also known as Skull House.

"Some of the ZBT brothers expressed interest in coming to our house as independents," one member said.

'Tnere is a chance that some of the GDls that were formally mem­bers ofZBTwill be gi\'en bids," said a member.

"But we are noi interested in what ZBT is ow nor wha.r. it used ro be. We are only interested in GDls. Some members ofZBT will never be

Russian Studies Draws Students' Enthusiasm (CPS)-Al WashingronSta1e Univ_er­sity. faculty members are prepanng to squeeze 2,500 students into a class that only 250 nonnally take.

"'This class is popular because it's exciting, it's now," explained WSU staffer Kathy Johnson.

Enrollment in the BYU classes is increasing at ·•10-10-15 percen per year," Jarvis said, noting students are staying with the topic through upper­level courses, too.

German Coffee Hour

Two professors from the Polish University of Wroclaw spoke lO the first German Cpffee Hourof they~ar, on September 6. The topic of the talk was the changing siruation in Poland and how Polish students view the two Gennanies. The presentation was given in German.

Dean Kunkel. a student organ• izer, said that ·the speakers were impre.sse.d by the nwnber of different religious denominations represented in the United States. They were also interested in the fact that there are so many individual houses here. Easier

access to o-avel papers made it pas• sible for them to visit the United States; but o-avel is still difficult be.cause of ]ow finances.

The Coffee Hour is held every Wednesday between 4:30 and 6:00 in L-117. It is opened to anyone who speaks German. The club OC·

now number two on the Billboard chart for Modem Bands, The Ocean Blue returned 10 Franklin and Marshall for another show at Ben's Underground. The performance was contracted over si., months ago, when the band was on the verge of national fame. "We couldn't ever have tried to get them now," said Ben's Night Manager John Dupuis.

Whether it was foresight or dumb luck, Ben's succeeded in contracting a band which now has a record contract, a hit single, and a national following. The band's single "Between Some­thing and Nothing" is currently mov­ing up the charts, will soon be out as a video, and will be followed up in a couple of weeks by a track called "Vanity Fair."

Voca1ist and lead guitarist David

drummer Bobby Minan all grew up together and say that playing togelher was always just "one of the things we happened to do." Sceczel. Lay. and

Minnig hail from Hershey. Pennsylva­nia, znd Minan grew up in Reading.

They began playing regularly in the ninth grade, but only got serious about it two years ago. This time last year they sent demos to several record

companies. Five labels showed inter­est. and after auditioning at two, they

finally picked Sire Records. which Sceczel says is "an excellent label for

The Ocean Blue then went into the studio tn De.c:emberof 1988 and by the following February had completed their first album. Their single "Be­tween Something and Nothing" has now been on the charts for four weeks

and is still rising.

Like all newly successful bands The Ocean Blue had no idea that the; would be so successful. Nevertheless

lhey seem to be preparing for their~ 10 fame very well.

"Mark Twain Revealed" Opens at the Eye By J. GABRIEL NEVILLE

Comad Bishop, a lectern, a chair, and a painting constitute rhe cast and propSofthelndependentEyeTheater's season opener entitled Mark Twain Revealed. The experimental play has be.en in the works for sometime, and after a series of delays,. it finally opened Thursday night

Bishop's role is that of a story teller. Unlike Hal Holbrook's cele­brated impersonation of Mark ·Twain. Bishop has no desire to play the pan of Twain. Bishop wants Twain's words to speak for themselves. Where his role as story teller ends, is when he

takes on the petsonalities of the char­acters in the four stories in a fashion reminiscent of Ario Guthrie's•• Alice's Restaurant" (without the music, of course).

In the space of two hours, Bishop demonstrates one of the world's worst case of multiple personality syndrome by acting out four of Mark Twain's most celebrated stories, or exceplS: "A Genuine Mexican Plug" (from Rough­ing It), Cannibalism in the Cars, The Man That corrupted Hadleyburg, and Huckleberry Finn.

Throughout it all. a giant portrait of the imrrional author looms over Bishop. One might expect Bishop, as the sole actor in the play, to dominate the performance. BUl the co-founder

and Anistic Director of the lndepend· ent Eye. in continually defers to the genius of Twain.

He introduces the play by quoting the author's autobiography: .. I am saying these things in this frank way because I am a dead person speaking from the grave. I think we never be­come really and genuinely our entire selves until we are dead-and not then until we have been dead years and years. People ought to start dead and then they would be honest so much earlier."

Truly, Twain never pulls his punches about human narure. In each of his four stories that Bishop tells, something is revea1ed atxiut us and the world in which we have created around us. Although a ccnrury has gone by, whai Twain has to say is just as i1npor­tanttoustoday. ''Reportsoflheawhor's death are no longer grcal1y exagger­ated,·· says Bishop, "he is in fact dead. What remain are his words."

"A Genuine Mexican Plug" is an uproariously funny story of hwnan gullibility and the fixes into which it can get us. If any pan of Bishop's performance is to be taken on face value, it is this story of a man and a horse.

"Cannibalism in the Cars" is the story of a group of travelers trapped in a blizzard and their attempt to "civi­lize" the laws of necessity in their attempt to SW"Vive by the use of parlia­mentary procedure. Fonner Speaker of the House Jim Wright does not es-cape mention.

The longest of Bishop's four per-

fonnanccsishisrenditionofTheMan That Corrupted Hadleyburg." The weakness of unchallenged vinue is il1usrratcd in this story of unraveled self-righteousness. One can ' thelp but wonder how Lancaster might play into

lhis tale. "Mark Twain Revealed" ends

with a story out of Huckleberry Finn. The celebrated character finds himself trapped in the ethics of slavery. as he saVes Jim from bounty hunters.

Experimenlalism is risky, but by tapping into the genius of Mark Twain, the Independent Eye has a sure thing. "'Mark Twain Revealed" will be show­ing every Thursday through Sunday untilSep1ember24. Don'tmissit

"Auntie Mame" Simple But Delightful Like the stage play before it and,

indeed, the character of Auntie Mame herself, its Beekman place maharanee, it is largely inflated with hot air - or a

son of intoxicating vapor, or theanical laughing-gas. There is litrleornosolid substance to its heroine and her milieu of cafc society jokers. free-loaders, phonies and freaks.

Most of its whirling, swirling action is ina succession of vin:ualskits, strung together in a loose chronologi­cal order that ex tends from the Prohibi­tion era. until lhepresent[1958]. And it scaiters anachronisms as freely as a cloud scatters rain.

But for all its absurd exaggera­tions and bland inconsistencies. this picture of a tireless party-giver is a highly cn1ertain.ing thing to sec. And because of the gags that gush from it, it is a constantly amusing thing to hear.

What's more., in its superficial. racing across several strata of rich society. il does C21Ch some glimpses of behaviorthatflashafewglintsofirony.

SHIRLEY

The picrure is every bit as potent, if not a good deal more so, lhan the stage play.

Actually, the stage play as writ­ten by Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee from the novel of Patrick Dennis, was more like a movie script in its pile-up of pictorial business and its multiplicity of scenes. The invi1.a­Iion to expansion was hand-engraved in the play. Now it has been accepted by screenwriters Bcny Comden and Adolph Green and by the director Morton DaCosta, who has the greater physical range.

Everything is expanded-die partyinAuntieMarne 'sduplex. with which the entertainment is appropri­ately inuoduced; the tryout of her one play in New Haven. lite foxhunt on the South Carolina cstaie, where Marne snags herself a wealthy hus­band, and the bit on the.

them are dazzling. But obviously most expansive is

Miss Russell, who lets herself go with even more gushi.ness and grandeur of gesture than she did on the stage. As the downright incredibly fluid and spirited sybarite who, nonetheless, gives her orphaned nephew an abundance of at­tention and love, she succeeds in creat­ing a creature that is as comically en­grossing as a clown and yet possessed of surprising little pockets of tenderness that, every now and then, she suddenly opens and empties of a touching largess. It is this tenderness in Miss Russe.JI that makes Auntie Mame tolerable, for with­out it she wouJd be an inexcusable ego. maniac and a bore.

CJosest 10 reality among the others are Jan Handzlik and Roger Smith. who are almost plausible and quite appealing as the nephew in his respective s1.ages of boy and man. Forrest Tucker is broadly humorous as the rich Southerner whom Mame smartly weds.

Farcical and funny among lhe oth­ers are Peggy Cass as a myopic secretary who makes a mistake of a delicate bio­logical nature, Coral Browne as an ac­tress who drinks and Lee Patrick and Willard Waterman as a Connecticut couple who raise Babbiay and bias to a high estate. Yuki Shimada as a house­boy, Connie Gilchrist as a maid and Joanna Barnes as a finishing-school's end product do variously lively carica­tures.

Auntie Mame is unrestrainedly a wild and innocent spoof, but it manages to make it apparent that it has a heart and that it's in the right place.

What docs the idea of studying abroad bring ro mind? You may ha"e actually considered what living and studying in a foreign country entails and dec:i~ you would like to explore your options. Before getting involved however, think about why you want to go abroad. After all,spendingup to a year in a foreign country leaves no room for self-doubt.

Thi.rtk about the language bar­rier. Talking to people can be embar­rassing and even frustrating at times. For instance. the expression "What's up'!" seemed strange to the English people I met in Nottingham.

You should first be aware that I.he process will require a substantial amount of time and I.hat junior year is the customary time for going abroad. At any rate, watch for notices of infor­mational meetings, and read student questionnaires on the top floor of Old Main.

Dear Doctor. Aie drinking games safe if you

only use beer? Curious

Dear Curious:

Drinking alcohol has a variety of mcdi­ca1, emotional, and social conse~ quences that make defihing a "safe" levclofintoxicationdifficult. A given amountofalroholmayinakcaperson irritable and obnoxious with a friend, evenlhoughhe/sheisnotlegallydrunk or at risk of an acute medical prob­lem: So, for simplicity, let's focus on the relationship between drinking gamesandme.dicalproblems. Games like "tails" and "thumper" require coordination and alertness to "win". When you " lose,,., you drink. Th~e­fore, your coordination delerioriares lO lhe point where it becomes very difficult to win. These games, and as other activities like "beer bongs" and "'lines" of teqUila shots, have one imponaru thing in common: the con­sumptionof alargeamountof alcohol in a shon period of time. The rai:e of alcohol consumption is a very impor­tant factor in determining lhe "Blood Alcohol Concentration" {BAC), which. in tum. determines the acute medical effecis lhe imbiber experi­ences.

The BAC refleclS the amount of alco­hol in the blood, not the number of drinks or volume of alcohol con­sumed. Since alcohol diffuses uni­formly ro all body tissues, the BAC also reflects the concentration of al­cohol in the brain. BACisrep:,rtedas

milligrams (mg) af alcohol per 100 mil!ililelS (decaliier, or di) of blood. For convenience., the mg/dl is con­_verted to "percent" by dividing the nwnber of milligrams of alcohol by 1000. Thus, a concentration of 100 mg/di equals 0.J %, 50 mg/di equals · 0.05%. BAC primarily depends on body weight. metabolism of alcohol, presence of food in !he stomach. and drinking rate in "standard drinks". Twelveouncesofbeer,5cWlCesofdry wine, 3 ounces of "fonified" wine (e.g. shetTy, port), 1.5 01mces of 80 proof liquor, and 0.75 ounces of grain alcohol each contain 0 .75 to 0.85 ounces of pureaJcohol and are defined as "standard drinks". Any of these cJJinks will produce the same BAC if consumed during the same period of time (i.e. one beer/minute = one shot/ mim.ire). Substantial amounts of food in the stomach may slow the absorp­tion of alcohol by as much as 50%, but all will ultimately be absorbed. About 90% of the alcohol is metabolized by• lhe liver at lhe rate of one drink/hour, IOO mg/kgbodyweight/hour,or0.015 ofthe BAC/how-.

SAMS: F &M Students Battle M.S.

By JESSICA ROSENTHAL Stair Writer

If you are interested in joining a club that is fun and exciting, and a benefit to others. then SAMS is for you.

Students Againn Muscular Sciera• sis (SAMS) is an organization geared lOwards fundraising for I.his crippling disease. and for educating the srudents about Muscular Sclerosis. Backed by Ule National MS Society, this F&M chapter is o~ly one of over 200 college and high school groups across lhe country. In 1985. the SAMS national cffice contacted a group of students at F&M and offered to help them s1an a chapter in this college. The next year. Mau Ableson kept it going and made it into what it is today.

Their cz.use, Muscular Sclerosis,:!:: a life-threatening, neurological illne~s affecting the central nervous system. Occuring mainly in women of twenty to forty years of age, this disease can affect people minimally from blurred vision to impaired muscle control, or to total paralysis and possible death at

the other extreme. Scientists do not have enough infonnation on MS to know the cause of it, or the cure for trus disease.

SAMS has a full agenda of activi­ties to raise money for MS. On OclO·

her 20 and 21. !hey will be holding their annual 24 hour Dance Marathon in Ben's Underground. Prizes for rais­ing the most money include a trip to the Bahamas fo r first place, and a color television for the numer-up. All who participaie will receive a door prize. In the beginning of March, a lip-synch

contest, Rock-a-Like, will be held in Hensel Hall. Inthepast, studentsposing as Madonna and Bruce Springsteen gave fantas tic performances a1 this benefiL Free games like Balderdash andPictiomuy, and t-shirts will be given out on both occasions. Canning at local supermarkets in town is another major evenL According to Cindy Fer­rari '90, SAMS' chairperson, "We would like to get the Lancaster com­munity involved as well."

Their goal this year is not only to top the 54.000 made in previous years, but also to educate F&M srudents. SAMS is holding their first general assembly meeting on September 14th inBooth-FerrisSouth. They have plans to show films about Muscular Sclero­sis, and to bring guest speakers who have this disease to come and talk about it at the meetings. SAMS is looking for a special events coordina­lOt. If anyone is interested in that position, or if you just want to learn more about SA.MS and Muscular Scle­rosis, come to the meeting this Thws­day.

"We would like to get aU of Lhe members more involved in the plan­ning of the special events,'" states Fer­rari. "We have a capable and endtusi­astic executive board. This year looks very promising."

"Timeout" Scott Burke

Afternearlytwodecadesofflaw­less tennis, which included 157 tour­nament titles, 18 Grand Slam titles, iix U.S. Open titles. and 1.304 match victories. Chris Evert decided that this year' s Open would be her final Grand Slam toumamenL

It makes you wonder how she has managed to perform with such unique proficiency and concentration. Perhaps her success on the ooun is the consequence of her emotional stabil­ity. her ability to keep a sane perspec­tive on such a maddening profession.

After losing to Zina Garrison in the quanerfinals, Chris spoke to re­porters of her recent inconsistency, 'That's one of the reasons why I'm retiring. I played a great match two days ago, andlhenl'm a bit flat today. Thai 's happened all year with me., and I th.ink that's why it's time."

These days, fans are bludgeoned wilh siories of rampant drug abuse, athletes holding out for raises, and exu-amarital affairs. But Chris Evert has been a model of integrity. The exception to the rule. Sports fans are are hungry to find heroes today, and when they do they'll overlook any of their vices. Take Pete Rose(pleasel). He'scomminedmost crimes short of murder, yet the fans will forgive him if he merely apolo­gizes for his foul play. As]ongasfans . have someone to whom they pay homage, they're happy. Fortunately, we've had Chris Even to emulate, to

watch her uphold the values that so many2.thleteshavehaveconveniently discarded.

You'd never see her throw a temper-tantrum on the court. or roar profanities at an official. or toss her clothing to adoring fans in the stands. Heck. to see her even throw an ex­halted fist into the air was news.

Chrissy has never surrendered to

the temptations of steroids or cocaine. No, she never needed those crutches or any others to bolster her perform­ance or relieve the stress that inevita­bly accompanies a world class athlete.

She's never been afraid 10 admit defeat. Even before her final shot of the U.S. Open had nestled softly inlO the net. Evert began jogging to Li.e net

to congratulate heropponenL Hardly a viewer noticed it. but thaI incon­spicuous gcstute reveaJed as m1.u.n aOOut Chris Evert the person as it did Chris Evert the tennis player.

But as in all professional sports, there's always a younger, hungrier player waiting to replace the veterans. Of course Evert's successor is Steffi Graf.

Despite being overshadowed by the announcement of Chris Even's retirement. Graff continued to do at the U.S. Open what she's done for the last two years--win.

bt 1988, she became the first female player to win a grand slam since Helen Wills Moody accom­plished the feat. This year Graf has won the Australian and Wimbledon, andnowtheU.S.Opentitles. lncredi­bly, she's has lost only six matches in the past two years, and only two sets since this year's Wimbledon.

Steffi described herselfh!st week as a "machine." Sound a bit arrogant andcocky? Notreally. Liketheysay, it ain't braggin • if you can back it up. And Steffi has indeed substantiated her boasts with her dauntless play at !his year's U.S. Open.

"LeMond Returns" Alan Walsh

Across the Atlantic this summer occurred the most recent and unlikely comeback story in American sports lore, but the subject is one of which­many sports fans have not heard. He rarely has the opportunity to perform in America in front of rpillions off ans, such as domestic comeback stars like Jim McMahon. In two years, how­ever, he's accomplished what the American sports fan admires perhaps most of all-to endure injuries, acci­dents, bad luck~ and bullet wounds and regain the turbine engine condi­tion that he once knew. He is Ameri­can cyclist Greg LeMond, who re­turned to the roads of France this year to win his second Tour de France in his last two appezrances. His first win came in 1986, and what happened in the two years in between should have ended the.career of a world-class cy­clist.

lnste2.d of descending twisting Alpine slopes at 60 mph. LeMond plummeted into a valley of injury and despair far from the glory of Europe. After winning the 1986Tourde France over his teammate and five-time Tour winner Bernard Hinault, he was acci­dentally shot in Ihe back by his brother -in-law while hunting. A lifetime of training and a few years of glory was sudden)y halted with the explosion of a gun and the smattering of pellets that

On July 23, 1989, after beating two-time Tour winner Laurent Fig­non in the fmal time tiiaJ of the·Tour de France. LcMond completed the comeback and had exceeded any pre­vious emctionaJ level he had ever experienced in racing~ He has been weIOOmed once again by the Euro­pean cycling w·Ofld as a legend even greater than the one he"had been when he rode to Paris in the yellow jersey in 1986.

LeMond' s prof~ional ~eer began in 1981, when he joined the now-defunctfrenchRenault-Elfream and won the American Coors Classic stage race. After winning the World Championship road race in 1983, he was ready for the race commonly re­ferred to as the "23 DaysinJuly.''the Tour de France. the most prestigious race in the world. Riding with Hinault on the the La Vie Oaire team, he helped Hinault win his fifth Tour in 1985, himself finishing second. The reammanagershadheldl.eMondback so Hinau]tcould tie EddieMerckx's recordoffivetourwins. Thenextyear would be his rum. Hinault promised. But Hinault forgot his agreement by th.e time the racers lined up to face the French Alps the next year, and he wanted a sixth for himself in '86.

LeMond won again this year with the splendor and spectacle that moti­vates 15 million spectators each year to line the srreecs of France in July, toasting with vintage wine and camp­ing for days to secure the choice van­tage p::,ints in_the Alps.

"College Preview" George Hlavac

Note: Each team's predicted regular season record is in parentheses.

J.NEBRASKA(ll-0) The biggest reason thar the Comhuskers are my preseason favorite to win the national championship is because they play a schedule lhatafew Division ID teams could play competitively. The only rv,•o lhreat.ening teams that the Com­huskers play are Oklahoma and Colo­rado. In my opinion, the Huskers have an excellent chance to go undefeated in lhe regular season and are a lock to play for the national championship on New Year's Day. QuanerbackSteve Taylor will be.missed. but there is too much talent on this team to lose to any one of the many creampuffs that fill up their schedule.

2. Michigan (10-1) The Wolver­ines are unquestionably one of the most talerited teams in the nation in 1989-90. Michigan'sheadcoachand AD Bo Schembechler is one of the

best in the business. Michigan plays an extremely tough schedule, but with a hosl of returning_ starters on both sides of the line of scrimmage (seven

on offense and nine on defense) the Wolverines will be laugh to beat. Quarterback Demetrius Brown will be the key to Michigan's success; and Michigan will beat the Fighting lrish of Notre Dame this Saturday.

3. Miami (10-1) The Hunicanes' rookie head coach. Dennis Erickson,

will face a stiff challenge in the first year of the post-Jimmy Johnson era in Miami. AlthoughtheHurricanesonly retwn six starters from each side of

the ball, and begin the season with an unproven yollllg quarterback (Craig Erickson), I believe that the Canes will lose only one game all year, and that will be at the hands of the FlQrida State Seminoles. Speedster Randall Hill will help keep the Miami offense explosive, and linebacker Bernard

Clarke will lead the defensive charge. 4. Clemson (1~1).The Tigers have

a very talented team and a relatively unchallenging schedule. Those two factors combined could lead to big thingsforthehungryTigers. Clemson is a shoe-in for the ACC title and will most likely find themselves playing on New Year's Day. Theol'Jy tough game to be found on the Tiger sched­ule is an early ~ason get-together with Florida SL UClemsoncan upset the Seminoles, then the Tigers may be talking national championship. The quarterback position is a big question­

mark, but the offense should find sta­bility in the likes of two-Lime All­

ACC rurming back Terry Allen. 5. Arkansas (10-1) The Razor­

backs are awarded this lofty ranking

because of an excellent coaching staff and a rather mediocre schedule. Arkansas· biggest challenge looms to be a late season match-up with Texas A&M. Ken Hatfield's Hogs will be led by jwrior quarterback Quinn Grovey. Defensively, the Razorbacks will have to ftll the shoes of eight starters that anchored last year's de­fense, ranking founhnationally against !he nm (91.8 y,rds per game).

6. ~otre Dame (10-2) Notre Dame deserves to be the national champion just for playing the murderous sched­ule that it plays in 1989-90. This is without a doubt. no exceptions at all, i.he toughest schedule in the country this year. Notre Dame plays the likes of Michigan, Purdue, USC, Pin, Penn State, and Miami. If the Fighting Irish can actually go 10-2 as I have pre­dicted, it will just be an indication of

the kind of talent that N .D. JXlSSesses. If Nebraska or BYU played this sched­ule, they would be lucky if they fin­ished over .500, but because the JX)ll­sters give record more im]Xlrtance than strength of schedule, and because the NCAA still refuses to come to their senses about a playoff system. we will have to continue to see lesser quality

teams ranked higher lhan they actu­ally deserve. Notre Dame will lose to Michigan and Miami.

7. Brigham Young (11-1) Here is

another example of a Division I foot­ball team playing a Division Ill sched­ule. BYU'stoughestopponcntis likely to be jetJag when they travel to Hawaii to take on the Rainbows in what looks to be their most challenging comest

8. Colorado (9-2) The Buffaloes field what is arguably one of the finest defenses in the nation this year. The front seven, keyed by outside line­backers Kanavis McGhee and Alfred Williams and defensive tackle Arthur Walker, are going to make opposing offenses work for every yard that they geL Offeru:ively, the Buffs are ques­tionable, but this will most likely be the year that Colorado shares some of the spotlight in the traditionally Okla­homa / Nebraska - domiuated Big Eight An early season battle with Washington in Huskie country could be the key to the season.

9. Louisana State (9-2) I.SU's na­tional championship hopes ride on the arm of their star quartetbadc, Tommy Hodson. Hodson will get some offen­sive help from flanker Tony Moss and tailback Harvey Williams, who sat

out last year with a knee injury. Un­forrunately for the Tigers, they also play a very difficult schedule includ­ing Texas A&M, Florida St., Florida, Auburn, and Alabama.

10. Syracuse (9-2) Dick MacPherson's Orangemen have qui­etly put together a very impresslVe2 l-2-1 record over the past two years. Only Miami (23-1) and Florida St. (22-2) were better in the '87 and '88

seasons combined. This year the Orange will be led by an offensive line that returns intact from last year's successful campaign. Behind this impressive line, look for junior Mich­eal Owens (bro!h.er of basketball star Billy Owens) to get the bulk of the offensive load. Another key returnee for the Orangemen is widcout Rob Moore, who is coming off of an im­pressive 44-catch, 797-yard, and 11

touchdown year.

11. Penn St. Blair Thomas could win the Heisman Trophy. Joe Paterno will not have a repeat of last year's

disappointment • 12. Auburn Quanerback Reggje

Slack will lead the offense, but key defensive losses will keep the Tigers

out of the Top 10. 13. UCLA Bruins have what may

be the best threesome at running back in the country this year-BrianBro\\-11.

Shav.n Wills, and Kevin Williams. 14.FloridaSt TheSeminolesplay

the second toughest schedule in the nation. Their schedule resembles a Top 10 listing- Clemson, at LSU, at Syracuse,Auburn,Miarni(Aa.),Soulh Carolina, and at Florida. Bobby Bowden has definitely got his work

cut out for him. 15. Illinois QuarterbackJeffGeorge

looks to improve last year·s dismal

performance. 16. USC Early season loss to Ilii­

nois really comes back to haunt the

Trojans. . 17_ Oklahoma Weakest offense m

thepastsixyears. Thankstoperennial

soft schedule and traditional talent, they will finish in Top 20.

18. Alabama The Tide looks to re­turn to prominence. but a tough sched­ule could again see lhe Tide come in low.

19. North Carolina St. The Wolfpack looks to continue its suc­cess against Clemson and hopes to

dethrone the Tigers in the ACC. 20. Oregon Any team that can en­

dure being called the Ducks year in and year out deserves to be L"1 the Top 20.

After a disappointing loss at Hav­erford to open the season, the Franklin and Marshall women 'svolleyball team rebounded with much improved play in the Haverford roumamenL Al­though the Dips posted a l-3record in the townament, theirperformance was much better than the record indicates. Coach SteveCoulsonwas pleased with the team's progress, and feels that they are st.ill capable of having a suc­cessful season.

In Wednesday's match at Haver­ford. the Dips were defeated in· all thre.e games, 16-14, 15-6, and 15-4. All.hough the loss was disappointing, Coulson said it was not unexpected. While they were not strong last year. Haverford rerurned an experienced teamascomparcdtotheDips, who are still adjusting to new faces in the start­ing lineup.

Rebounding from Wednesday's loss, the Dips were noticeably im­proved in Sarurday' s tournament. The lone disappointment was a loss to Bryn Mawr, 15-7 and 15-11.

However, the team responded by beating an Elmira team. which had

previously beaten Bryn Mawr, by the 5cores of 15-4. 13-15, and 15-6 .

In anoLl-ier match, the Dips wer.!

defeated by lasl year's tournament champion, Wilplington.15-12and 15-

7. Finally, in the playoffs, the team

fell to a "p:,werful" squad from SL John Fisher by scores of 15-7 and 15-5.

Despite the team's 1-3 record, Coulson was pleased wilh their play. Toe Dips were led by Johnna Kleban '92 who played consistently well throughout the tournament and posted a 35% attack percentage. Gretchen Walter '91 returned from an ankle

injury to contibute to the Dips arrack.

The Dips will play their home openeronTuesd.1). hosting York and Cabrini atMayserCenter. They will then host Catholic and Ursinus on Thursday, September 14. The Dips will roundout the week by playing a match at Swarthmore on Saturday, September 16.

Coulson said that the D~s are looking to pick up some wins this week, and any fan support would be welcome.

Setzler also liked the play of sweeper Dina Spizzirri '93 ... In the first half, Dina really saved the t~am a lot." she said. "She played a very poised and controlled game."

With thedisaPJX)immem of thetr first loss behind them, the Diplomat5 are looking forward to next week's games. On Tuesday, the team travels to Lebanon Valley. and on Thursday they go to Haverford. They close tho! week at home on Saturday against Western Maryland.

"On the Attack" Volleyball Opens Season at Haverford

Yes, I know that lhe world of professional spons is an e.conom.ic instirution before it is anything else. Yes, I know writing a column calls for objectivity; and yes. I know !hat the world is simply not fair. However, sometimes itis more than a little diffi­cult to retain that Wlbiased distance. Sometimes, something happens that you feel so strongly about that you feel it is your moral obligation as not only

a fan. but as a human being to speak om-in a completely subjective tone-and let it be known that some­times, the arena of professional sportS really stinks.

Two weeks ago, the Philadelphia

76ers traded Maurice Cheeks. That phrase still appears absolutely ludi­crous to me. Ever since I knew what a basketball was, I have been adiehard Sixers fan. I don't know if I can be anymore. When I think of the Si:i.crs,

Mo Cheeks is the first player to come !.O mind-1::>cfore Doctor J • . before Barkley. For me, Cheeks is the epit­ome of what a true athlete should encompa.c;s-a near-perfect blend of talcm, dedication, hustle. and. most imponantly, unselfishness.

TI)·ing to be objccti\'e here, I sec i..l-:1s trade as the undoin!! of the 76ers. Mau rice Checks is a n;rnra1 athletic and ~piritual leader-a rare combina­tion. a combination lha1 a floundering team such as Philly needs desperately.

This is why on the day he was traded, my mom called and left a message on my answering machine to call her back. She knows Cheeks is

at 10:00 P.M. any questions please call ED 396-1146 or

Erica 396-1004

Beth Weiner probably my favorite all-time athlete. and she didn't want me to find out

about the trade, uh. Jet's say, on the news. Ahh-now we get 10 lhe heart of the matter. Not only was the trade an unjustified s]ap in his face. but Cheeks fowid out that he was oow a San Antonio Spur while watching the 11 p..m.news.

But even this Cheeks handled with the class and grace that are so characteristically his:

"I've seen being traded uncere­moniously happen to friends before. But it's never been me. So I could always make light of it. to help them through it But now, I'm not too prepared for it, and it isn't real enjoy­able.•·

The Sixers · head coach. Jim Lynam, tried to reach Cheeks before he found out elsewhere. Cheeks be­lieves him, and so do I. But I also agree with Cheeks• thought thatsome­one could have done something to a\'oid his finding out along with the rest of the nation.

For 11 years. since coming out of West Texas State, Cheeks has !:!iven all he has to the Sixers and to th; city of Philadelphia. I know. I know, it's his job to work hard anj produce on the court, and I know he gelS paid quite well. But Mo Cheeks is a differ­ent brand of athlete. In a world of self­promoting "superstars" like Brian Bosworth and Jim McMahon. in a world of drugs and gambling, Cheeks has remained a vintage role model not

only as an athlete. but as a person. Cheeks was the 1ast remaining

memberoftheSixers' '83Champion­ship team. He most certainly de­served the right to end his career with the team he loved and in the city to which he is so anached Harold Kau has made a grave mistake, because Mo Cheeks is invaluable. All I can say is that I intend to be at the Spec­trum when San Antonio first comes to town, so I can join in the prolonged standing ovation when Llie Spws' starting point guard is annowiced.

The two images I will always have of Mo Checks no one can ever take away. I can still see hirnrwuting out the clock in the deciding game against the Lakers when the Sixers were number one in the NBA--drib­bling down the court v,rith that huge grin all over his face. And I refnember talking with him last year in Mayser Gym-his sincerity, his modesty, his grace. I remember hil11 telling me that he stiII didn't understand why Moses Malone was traded. No doubt he understands this trade e,..en less. This year. when the 76ers come to F&M, I'm sure we all agree that it just will not be the same.

.. My experiences in Philadelphia are irreplaceable.•· Cheeks has said. "I know they don 'towe me anytrung. But they could have handled this in a better way somehow."

Damn right, Maurice-but you're only right about the last pan. You're what's irreplaceable.

By PAUL HERVEY Sports Editor

TheFrankliri&Marshallwomen's soccer team must find a way to re-­place All-America forward Beth Byrne. CoachG.W. Mix is counting on team co-captain and center for­ward Jane Donnelly ·90 to fill that

hole. "We're trying to replace the goals

that were scored by Beth Byrne,•· s;: ;,JMix. "Hopefully. we'llgetsome ph~ :.icalplay from Jane. She can see lhe field well, and we hope she can distribute the ball a lot~

Indeed. in the first game of the season. Donnelly did just that In Wednesday's 5--0 victory over Hav­erford, she scored one goal and as­siste.d on two others. The last time she played forward, as a sophomore,

Donnelly scored 16 goals and added l O ass is IS for 42 points.

For her career, Donnelly is the fifth all-time leading scorer for the Diplomats, with 65 points.

Donnelly has been name.d to the AU-Middle Atlantic Conference

"She's just so strong, ~he goes through people," said Mix. in ex­plaining why he moved her to the front Iu,e. "She justdoesn 'thave the Speed Jo play sweeper. She can use her strength much better at center­forward."

"I don '1 mind playing the whole

field,"said Donnelly. "I like Ute di­versity. Basically, I play wherever the k:am needs me, so that's where I'm going. I like playing striker

better." Donnellywasshocked to be named

co-captain of this year's team, along with Annemarie Merow '91.

"We've played together for rhe pasttwoyem,"saidDonnelly, "and I think we have a good idea of how wewantthisteamroperfonn. She's

an excellent leader and an excellent player."

"I clidn't think I'd gel it [being named capia.in], so I was kind of shocked people would wantme to be captain," she said. "But now I'm

kind of glad I was chosen." "She's a very good team leader,"

said Mix. "She's a good leader,

Men's Soccer Splits Pair; Beats Juniata, Loses to Swarthmore

By MICHAEL MEROLA Staff Sports Writer

After consecutive shutout victo­ries to open the .season, the men's soccer ream hoped ro continue that streak against Swarthmore on Satur­day. Under the sweltering heat and humidity of the day. the Diploma!S failed to achieve that goal, losing to Swarthmore 3-1.

Coach Larry Jones said, "Ir's alwaystlisappointi.,g. Weplayedwell but let down defensively and that cost us. We had strong performances in the last two games, but were not tested

defensively."

As the game developed in the first half, it seemed as lhough the Diplomats might continue their shut­Ol!t streak. At times, the Dips pene­ttated the Swarthmore defense but failed to capitalize on the opportuni­

ties. It was not until four minutes

remained in the fiTSt half that the first goal was scored. Unfortunately for the Dips, it was Swarthmore who opened the scoring and took a lead that they would never relinquish. Goalie Josh Pas her "91, coming off of

play when we go down there." A victory at Ursinus would be

Gilburg's 100th career win. "Hope­fully it will be number two [for the team this season]," Gilburg stated. His current record is 99-32-2. in his 15th season as head coach ar F&M.

It was the offensi~e effon that was discouraging for the Dips. In the second half, they drove towards lh.: Gamet goal frequently but came away with only one tally. Co-captain John Packard '90 scored off of an assist from Bill Bensley '90. Bensley brought the ball down the field and then passed to Packard on the other side of the field. Packard Ulen nailed thedifficultshotfromtherightcomer.

Swarthmore forward Bill Inden scored the first two Garnet goals, and

Swarthmore would add a third goal later on to erase any hopes of a come­back by lhe Diplomats .

On the loss, co-captain Rich Scherer '90 said. .. Coming off two

wins, this game was disappointing. They beat us to the ball. We just have to capitalize on the opportunities more."

Dips dominated all 2Spects of the game.

"A positive performance," said Jones. "We played 80 of the 90min­utes in their offensive half."'

Conttibuting to lhe massi1;e of­fensive outburst with goals were JJ. Prosser '91, David Padrusch "92, Anthony Vattilana '93, Josh Urban '93. and Marc SL Amant '91, who netted two goals. The game provided sound proof that the Diplomats have a

lethal offense and an even more pow­erful defense that will allow them to play with the best teams in the confer­

ence. It was the 1eams • second con­secutive shutout and the first of the season for goalie Sean McCullough

'90. The next two matchups for the

Diplomats come at home against Messiah on Wednesday and Ursinus on Sarurday. Messiah is ranked number one in the East and third in the country, and should provide areal test

for the Diplomats.

Coach Jones echoed the same sentiments. "We played steady at midfield," he said. "It shows some­

thing for the future. We went to the 11 goal well, but we just didn't finish ;

"It was unbelievkble ... We scored lhree quick touchdowns, and they went into shell shock. They were done," said running back coach Bruce Ecken.

It was a first half in which every­thing seemed to go right for the Dips. On the second play from scrimmage, quarterback Geno Pagnozzi '90 con­nected on a lx>rnb to split end Dale

Brian Fisher '90 stepped in to pick off a Yellow Jacket pass flipped by hurried quarterback Scott Kirby '92. Fisher sprinted52 yards for F&M's third score.

'The fust quarter was surprising .... I didn't think it would come like that. .. saidheadcoachTomGilburg. "Wehad great execution, with the defense set­ting things up, with Dale and Geno hooking up on lhat second play. you can'tbcatthaL"

The offensive and defensive lines also turned in standouL performances., gaining some much needed experience and confidence.
