We want to thank all the many students who participated in our contest. Theselection was extremely difficult due to the tremendous volume of replies.

Dear Spiritual Guardians, i * k w 5? ^ I l Wj£ It has been extrem ely d ifficu lt to sort through an extensive list of very diverse personalities and come up with thetyp ica l Mercyhurst coed. Since MU is a commu nity loaded with fun-lovin g, congenial people, a person with the samequalities deserves to win the contest. Basing my choice on these ideals I have chosen Tricia Campbell to fil l thegolden slipper behind the big iron gates. « X- * j * ft§ J t" >

The meeting had a three-fold purpose: allotments of thkryear'sbudget, committee appointments and new business. The allotmentswere passed out. Lex gave explanations of the E xecutive B oard'srationale for each allotment. The tuition allotment was questioned.It was explained that last year's R.U.S. government passed thateach executive officer of R.U.S. would be paid a compensation ofone thre e credit cou rse. Discussion about club allotments followed.Because of the variou s clubs, it w as decided th at R .U.S. would giveeach club $100.00 and would match up to $100.00 additionally, forfunds that each club raised from dues, projects, etc. and depositedinto the R.U.S. account. | $B8& t

The role of the representative was discussed—"to communicatefrom us (R.U .S.) to your department and back to u s . " S P :

The committee appointments were passed;; out. Everyone inR.U.S. would be on a comm ittee, eith er w ithin our own body or thesenate. Discussion followed concerning the structure of the collegesenate. Meetings of the committees would be determined by thechairman of each com mittee. ? t

Mr. Herring gave the report of the SAC Committee for activitiesproposed for the first term. He stated three major points: movies,student activities, and student union capital expenditures. He askedfor a total figure of $10,500 to cover this year on the three pointsmentioned above. It wa s approved in the allotment budget.

Many new faces appeared atthe first Representative Union ofStudents meeting last Thursdaynight and the upcoming yearlooks very good. The executivecommittee presented the allotments for the year totaling closeto $29,000.00, the remainder willbe used for R.U.S. expenses. .

It seems that R.U.S. is movingin^ the right? direction, newrepresentation through academ icdepartments,W and ; a newphilosophy of government. Themoney is gone so R.U.S. will nolonger have to spend all theirtime arguing over who gets what.There will be more important andrelevant!j issues, brought %\xp% atfuture meetings, tuition raises,

student policies and Students'Rights and Freedoms just toname' a few. Remember thatR.U.S. meetings are open to thestudents this is your organizationand represents the students in theCollege Senate, so if there are anyissues that you would like to seebrought up please contact*;'your'representative or come to themeetings and voice your opinion.

uarteti DebutsThe unique Netherlands Saxophone Quartet ar e making their exclusive American debut tour under

the auspices of Franklin Concerts' annual foreign exchange tour| I f - . |w

The ensemble was founded in 1969, by a grant for financial support from the Prince Bernhard Fund.During the short period of its existence, the Quartet has already largely contributed towards thedevelopment of the saxophone culture in the Netherlands. Evidence of this is the fact that young

Dutch composers dedicated compositions to them, which did not only rouse the interest at home, butalso on the international level. t I'i tfflLast year the group also toured Canada and made recordings for EMI (Capitol) Re cords. In ad

dition to a heavy touring schedule they perform numerous concerts over Dutch ra dio. 1The ensemble consists of Leo van Oostrom, soprano sax, a gradu ate of the Royal Conservatory in

The Hague. He also teaches at th e Rotterdam Conservatory, j ^Ed Bogaard—alto sax—graduated from the Utrecht Conservatory. In 1969, he formed this en

semble and performed conc erts throughout E urop e, as well as on radio and TV. Mr. Bogaard is also ahead teacher at the Conservatories of Amsterdam and Utrecht, f W S* Wm

Adri van Velsen—tenor sax—was born and raised in Hie Hague and graduated from the RoyalConservatory th ere . He also acts in capacity of conductor in the Netherlands. f J 1

Jacques Landa—baritone sax—was born in Bergen and studied at Brabant's Conservatory atTilburg, from which he graduated. Mr. Landa also teaches music in the Netherlands. |

WOW-NETTERS 11, I M I I O CIPRIANI. SPOIIS EDITORj:The awesomeness of the Mercyhurst Laker tennis team fs now

known throughout the New England sta tes. They concluded theirfall schedule with an impressive tour:

f of the northeastern stateswhich brought their overall record to 11 wins and 0 losses. ? J

After capturing their second straight Edinboro InvitationalTournament, the Lakers trounced the University of Rochester,Cornell, Brand eis, Bowdoin, MIT, Boston College, W illiams Collegeand Am herst. Before the trip, the netters realized that none of theseteams were slouches when It came to playing tennis; however, aswas evidenced, they were more than prepared. Some of theseteams had quite a reputation for being powers in the E ast, Boston

College had not been beaten in the last five years on theirjhomecourts, and the Lakers literally disheveled them 7-2. | #The impressiveness of the Laker triumphs is shown in the scores,

but iVus even more noticeable whenfthe statistics.are analyzed.During the Eastern trip, the team as a whole lost only five matches.Of the eleven victories, eight were garnered by shutouts. Only &total of seven matches were lost overall. |

These statistics still don't present the true picture. The Lakernetters lost only 23 combined (singles and doubles) sets out? of apossible 222. This is an almost unbelievable total when one considers the caliber of the competition. All of the various stats areprinted on this page, and when they are scrutinized, I think you'llagree, the netters seem almost invincible. | ' 0%.

With the Eas t now conquered, the tennis team will have to waituntil the spring before they uraveh westward to further their"powerhouse" reputation. Also westward is the sight of the 1974National Championships. I'll cover any bets that say the Lakerswont be there! I 1* m

Last week, the Mercyhurst

tennis team embarked upon ahistory making journey throughNew England, beating andgaining the respect} of everycollege campu s upon which it setfoot. Truly this is a milestone inMercy hurst and r'Erie spo rtshistory, for Snot only did theLakers spread the name Mercyhurst, to such schools as Cornell,Boston College, Amherst, etc.,also familiarized^ these peoplewith die type of sports that growout of Erie, Pennsylvania.

Why then, does the Erie publicnot support, j not only Mercy-hurst's sports program, but alsoGannon's to a certain extent. Itseems to me that the blame canbe tin part, pinned on the Eriesports writers. B eing a one paper

filled his whole editorial columnthis past Sunday, Oct. 7, with areport and Ids ratings of Erie'shigh school bands. Now don't getme wrong, I feel high schoolbands are as m uch a p art of highschool sports as are J the] participants. But, in lfght of the pa stweek of Laker Tennis, and alsoGannon's sports teams ;par-ticipatingjin Scranton for theirconference championships, I feelMr. Polancy could have saved thebands for Monday or Tuesday andwritten about the adventures ofthe two Erie Schools, whether itbe critical or complimentary,something should have been saidto let the Erie sports fans knowwho's spre adin g! their {namearound. I think the write ups that

Erie High Schools get are great, athing unheard of in other citieswith two or three colleges whoparticipate in sports. But collegesports is* a high-level I of competition and should Shave firstpriority in the press.} | | | g j

which is maintaining 5the goalsset, we desperately need thesupport of the Erie community(i.e. The erection of the NewSports complex relies heavily ona feasibility study taken from thecity of; Erie). How can arelatively uninformed sports fansupport these programs.

ft is * up to the Erie sportswriters, to dig for personality andhuman ititerest stories and tosupport and if necessary "sell"big time college sports to the highschool oriented Erie sports fan,for all the local college athleticprograms, ffe +

If the answer to the feasibilitystudy taken from the Mercyhurstsports complex is NoGo, then youErie sports writers must take

6HURST BOUNCES SONNIESJoe Cook meant it when he said

he wanted to play .500 ball and histeam assured him of at least thatby bombing StjBonaventure, 7-3.

The 'Hurst exploding for three

runs in the seventh snapping athree to three tie, added one morein the eighth and rolled on to theirfinest fall performance, sendingtheir record to 4 and 2 with twogames remaining.| |

The Lakers ripped 12 hits off of"St. Bona venture"? pitchersZelinski and Baum, and DannyHill completely shot the "Bon-nies" down yielding only four hitsover the nine inning contest, t

For Mercyhurst it was*a teameffort, Jwith Chucky Jonescollecting the first two R.B.I.'s onaJ smashing l double. St.Bonaventure quickly went aheadin the third, collecting three runs.In the fourth the 'Hurst cameback to tie it on Big SteveBrandon's single. |

S This led to the big seventhinning as Kurt Brooks knocked inthe first run on a line drive single.Mike Falgo and Carl: "Smoke"Jones did likewise each picking,up an R.B.I. Kevin Cook sold theLakers some insurance* inj theeighth by ripping a single anddriving in yet another run.

Danny) Hill pitched brilliantlyand*-picked *up the twin as JoeZeiinski caught the loss for St.
