At the present time, the
"Key" is coordinating prepara_
tions for a student directory to
be made available to the entire
student body. In addition, Bill
wishes to make the activities of
the Key Society better knQWn
to the presidents of the various
campus organizations. in the
hope that these groups will be­come
more aware and make
more use of the many serv:lce
opportunities which the Society
prqvldes.
"I feel that there is still much
to be done in the area of serv­ice
to our many campus clubs
and organizations." Bill's ideal
is that the cardinal Key Society
become even more nexlbM! in
the activities, so that eventually
their services will encompass
the needs of the University
along these lines.
Bm, now majQring in Psyebo­logy,
plans to enroll in post­graduate

William Martineau, President
of the Cardinal Key Society,
came to Fairfll9d from Turners
Falls High SchQol in Massachu·

honors in the Pro-merito
Honor Society, while at the
same time he participated in
numerous class and athletic ac­tivities.
His extra - curricular
program included the Glee Club,
History Club, the school news­paper,
and the yearbook. In ad­dltion,
his athletic achievements
were attested tQ as a member
of the Varsity basketball team.

ROBERT BEEMAN
THE STAG
Although the team looked
miserable during the St. Jo-­seph's
game, I think they have
the potential to
have a good sea­son.
TIley start­ed
the seasQD
w:ith possibly
the best team
they will face
all )ocar. Also the team had to
play before a crowd of 3,000
people, of which 2,900 were St.
Joe's fans. You can't expect in­experienced
sophomores to per­fonn
at their best. Even the St.
Jqe's sophomores had some dif­ficulty,
but the home court fans
helped them adjust. With more
game experience tlle team
shoUld be able to overcome the
erron: which they cornnUtted in
the SL Joe's game.
CHARLES ZIEGLER '65
There is no doubt about It
with Fairfleld going majQr col­lege
competition this year, the
Stags have their
work cut out
for for them.
We have a fine
squad with ftve
lettermen re­turning.
With
the addition of last year's fresh­men,
[ think it will take some
time for the team to click. How­ever,
they are top material, and
once they get their teamwqrk
down, they will provide us with
a winning season.
Looking over the schedule, I
see an uphlll climb for the Stags
- the going will be rough, but
I think they can and wlU make
it. I hope that the student body
will join behind their team and
provide the spirit so I.mpQ,rtant
for this season.
WILLIAM OOULTER '66
This season being our ftrst u
a major college basketball
power could turn out to be a
rather challeng­ing
and trying
Qne. With some
luck and a few
breaks we
should have a
wlnnlng season.
Considering the talent and spirit
of the team I don't think .500
plus is too optimistic. Falrtleld
has the potentiaJ and the ability
to upset a few cocky teams...
St. Joe's was a little out of .
Qur class, being ranked 15th 11;
the nation. It's probably just In
the East. The team had a bad
night. Had the game been
played at home, Fairfield, the
results could have been dif­ferent.
I wish the team luck and will

general buIJetin boards and not
on windows or doors. Social ac.
tivities ought to be publicized,
granted, but there is such a
thing as "beating a dead horse."
There are four main places
where signa would be appropri.
ate: 1) the smokers, 2) the cafs,
a) the game room, and 4) the
mail room. At some time during
the day, most students are at
these strategic places. If they
are going to notice anything at
all, 1t would he at this time.
Third, we students should take
the initiative to be infonned.
Reference ought to be made to
these spcific posts. There is no
need for ignorance of events on
our part, if we would check with
these notices.
If the organizations would fol.
low along these lines of order,
position, and manner there
would not be the unattractive­ness
which exists now where
signa are slapped anywhere and
everywhere .•. There is a place
for everything, and everything
in its place. In this way, both
the organization and the student
will benefit.
Let's try it.
This year it seems as if there
is an overabundance of signa.
notices and bulletins tapen,
tacked, or attached to walls,
boards, milk·machines, clocks,
doors, windows, cars, bathroom
stalls, and piJIars. And due to
this munificence of mime~
graphed material, the Fairfield
student has developed the atti.
tude of indifference toward these
notices. To have to swin through
a deluge of paper actually de­feats
the purpose of a poster;
it is discouraging and leads to
~his apathy.
How do we solve this prot>­lem?
Notices are necessary. Con.
tact must be made among club
members. Opportunities should
be posted. THE STAG suggests
the following solutions:
First when organizations make
signs they should keep in mind
that neatness leads to attractive­ness.
When a notice is posted it
should be clear and concise as
possible. There is no need for
excessive fanfare.
Second, notices should be

boards, planned meetings on

preserving) along with that per­sonal
committment to renewal
and refonn which is so neces­sarr
for a flourishing American
society and culture.
The popularity of the peace
corps (which apparently has not
fared as well on Catholic cam­puses
as on others), the commit­ment
to effecting meaningful ra­cial
equality and the continued
devotion to freedom of speech
and of political action (so
strongly demoDBtrated recently
at the Universities of Buffalo,
Minnesota and California) con­stitute
some proof of the vitality
and idealism of American col­lege
students.
On the whole, one can say that
the American college student is
probably slightly ahead of the
society in which he will ulti­mately
act as a leaven.

Fairfield University has been
in existence for over fifteen years
now but, to my knowledae, there
has never developed a tradition
of the students exploiting New
York for other than beer at 18
and Madison Square Garden.
Certainly both should be im­bibed
but not to the exclusion
of the theatres (especially Off­Broadway),
concert halls and
opera, museums, the poetry dens
of MacDougal Street, the numer­ous
free university lectures and
even the Greek "entertainment"
of lower Eighth Ave. By the
same token, it is surprising that
the students have not breached
the walls of Yale University and
established a "dialogue" with
their Ivy League confreres.
The fsct that, to my knowl­edge,
no rector or dean - or
faculty member, for that matter
- has been hanged in effigy
during my eight years at the
University is a sign of something
wanting in the student body.
Such an occurrence, of course,
can only have meaning if it is

One of the most popular pas-.
times in recent years for teach­ers
- and outsiders - bas been
the analysis and criticism of col­lege
students, their ideals and
their goals. Since the post-war
period the number of books and
articles characterizing the Amer·
iean colJege student as liberal,
conservative, materialistic, ideal­istic,
sports-minded. intellectual,
irresponsible, committed. reJigi­ous,
amoral, etc. is legion and all
indications are that they will
continue to be published. Favor·
able - and unfavorable - con­trasts
are drawn between the
heroic committment of the Hun­garian
Freedom fighters. the se­rious
political orientation of
Latin American students. the
strong dedication to the pursuit
of intellectual excellence of Eu­ropean
student bodies and the
generally detatched and perhaps
even indifferent attitude of
American students. The latter
are, indeed, usually rated sec·
ond best no matter with whom
compared.
I do not share this disdain for
the American student body and
recognize that students must re­flect
the status and ideals of the
society from which they come.
Any deficiencies or blemishes
that might exist in American
society cannot be immediately
removed merely because a young
citizen, formed and nurtured in
that society, has moved for four
years into university precincts.
On the other hand I certainly
would expect that the increas­ing
familiarization of the stu­dent
with the great intellectual,
cultural and spiritual values of
his Western heritage, the con­tinual
dialogue with the in­formed,
critical minds of his pro­fessors,
the probing analysis of
contemporary American society
and its values and the insights
gathered at students' own bull
sessions should help build that
reasoned and profound dissatis­faction
with the state of society

ParkIDc Problem
The Grievance CommlUee has
just completed a survey Qt the
lack of space in Loyola and
Campion parking lots. Results
show that there are 98 student
parking spaces and only 92 resi­dents
of Campion and Loyola
with cars on campus. The C0m­mittee
cqncludes that olf cam­pus,
day hops, and Gonzaga
residents must be using these
lots for convenience against
Parking Regulations. Therefore,
the Committee will meet with
the Administration this week
suggesting means of enforcing
the rule that only res.ldents cf
Campion and Loyqla be allowed
to park in this area (possibly
by means of special stickers
easily detected by the campus
poUcemen).

Possibilities, Considerations
On Proposed New Library
Fr, Small, S.J., University Li­brarian,
explained that more
than three hundred thousand
volumes would be excessive,
particularly because most books
deteriorate after twenty years
or use.
Ideally, a university library
can seat one thIrd of Its student
bcx!y, With an anticipated two
thousand students, the library
will seat some seven hundred
students.
Beyond a large selection r:4
works, the library will have

of pages can be perman­ently

will be more readily avaUable
to all. Seminar l'OQmS, for
group research, are also to be
included tn the new building.
Fr. Small mentioned that In
many co - educational schools
such rooms have proved a pro~

UNIVERSITY SEMINARS
Just before Thanksgiving, the Student Govern­ment
sent letters of invitation to a selected group of
students to attend and participate in student-faculty
discussions. This rather uneeremonius event may per­haps
be the most important thing done on campus
this year. As outlined. the discussions, which will be
separated into six different groups covering the vari­ous
aspects of the life of the University, will consider
the purpose of a university and its effect on the stu­dent
body with a view toward finding out how Fair­field
fulfills this purpose and how it can make
meaningful improvements. Finally, the School as a
community has in its hands the necessary tools not
only for directing its future but also for obtaining a
possible solution to the problems we have here and
now. For these reasons the event is very important. and
fortunately it has not failed to see the significance
of including a membership representative of the Uni­versity
as a whole. In its potentiality it is as limited as
the Academic Forum nor as far removed from the
student body.
Individual discussion groups will study and talk
over the general areas of: faculty-student-administra­tion
relations; academic; personal life; extracurricu­lar
and curricular activity; culture; and physical
facilities. As can be seen, the subjects for considera­tion
are wide in scope and in their totality they deal
with everything in which college is involved. These
individual groups will have an opportunity to unbur­den
both the faculty and the students with regard to
complaint and criticism that has been made by both
sides. Old wounds may be opened, but it can be done in
a way that will mean something precisely because of
the immediacy of the discussion. We need no longer
talk about each other from afar but, the vehicle is
now here in which it is possible to carry our mutual
dissatisfactions or satisfactions to an end that will have
some value. There is no reason why we should now
work against one another in many areas where both
have hoped for improvement.
What is most pleasing aboul these discussion
groups is that it is possible that now the student who
felt completely frustrated in his effort to further some
improvement in the School may be able to be heard
in a context that considers his voice essential to the
success of this program and the University, It is true
that not every student will have a direct say in the
discussions themselves, but that is really no problem
if each one of us continues and increases his interest
in the p~sent and future good of the school. We so
often hear around campus people suggesting with
varying degrees of vehemence things that are wrong
with the school and perhaps they even have some
solution in mind. This is the sort of talk that is heaUhy
for the School if it can be translated into a genuine
concern for the life of our college. The Student Gov­ernment
now gives us a way of making this transla­tion;
and all of us should, if we have not been invited
to take part in the program itself, intensify our own
thoughts and words about Fairfield and what we are
or are not satisfied with.

In other action, the Council approved the eleva~
lion of a certain club from major activity to Cardinal
activity status. Its name we realized, however, after
toying with these meaningless activity points for 80
long, that no arbitrary classification can serve as a
guide to how much work a student has done in co­curricular
endeavors. Supposedly they are used to
detennine admission qualification to the Fairfield Uni­versity
Honor Society, They are a very unreliable
standard, to say the least. The only adequate way to
detennine qualification is through personal testimony.
Speaking of Honor socities and the like, it seems
to be about time the Council looked into membership
in the college edition of Who's Who. Such a course
of action was recommended by the Dean of Studies
as far back as October 14, 1960.
According to the last issue of the STAG, the
Student Council (please note we call it the Council
instead of the Govemment. because that's what it is.
and this silly fetish of calling the Council a Govel'D~
ment has got to stop) - anyway, the Council passed
a motion to establish a review board "to pass judge­ment
on any performer. performance, or lecturer
brought on campus," Furthennore, this unique board.
composed of Director of Student Personnel, the Presi~
dent of the Student Government, chairman of the
Philosophy Department. the student president of the
Canisius Academy (l thought the Academy had been
abolished under our new Theology curriculum), and
a lay faculty member, allegedly also has the power
to determine whether a certain controversial topic may
be treated in campus publications,

departed brethren of the Society for the Suppl'eNion
of Vice. are all dancing in their gravea out of UJto
bounded joy. And the Mothers for a Moral America
will .urely give w. their "Blue Pencil of the Year"
award.
In all. seriousness, however. a review board per­haps
can serve a useful function if only to avoid
unfortunate situations like that which developed over
the showing of "La Dolce Vita" last year. The word­ing
of this motion, however, WM most unfortunate.
We need a board to defend academic and artistic
freedom from pressure groups, not a board to sup­press
freedom of expression,
What's more, if the Councilor the Administra­tion
had any real faith in the responsible judgement
of our student leaders, they would not overload the
board with members of the faculty. For, to be honest,
students have a mere advisory capacity on this board,
and their opinions will carry no weight if the Admin­istration
choses to disregard them, Perhaps, this is as
it should be, but we should not delude ourselves into
thinking that student representatives now have control
of a censor board.

There's not really not much
more tQ say about the recording.
Leadbelly doesn't have the
prettiest voice or the most
skilled guitar hand but he has
greatness. He had been a vlo­elnt
man but is was necessary.
Criticisms of his recording for
the wrong people and singing
for the wrong causes are nQt
valid. The record is under the
standard and a bargain at the
price.

For weeks now this column has been attacking
contemporary attitudes, philosophical positions and in
particular the mentality of the "dosed mind". I'd
just like to point out at the start of an article that
doesn't knock anybody, that I am not trying to be
an iconoclast, smashing beliefs for the sake of seeing
them fan in rubbish around me. I'm not trying to tell
people they're wrong just to see them squirm, and
attempt, by devious means and specious reasoning,
to reaffirm their position. I really don't like to see
things crumble,
But I do think that the moat dangerous creature
on earth is the one who claims to have The Truth. Such
an individual becomes complacent, static, and vege­tates
in an atmosphere of false confidence. Such a
person must be awakened, before he stagnates his
mind and the minds of others. All this column attempts
is to give a few people a gentle slap across the face, in
order to revive their mental processes. It is not trying
to bash heads against walls. It is not trying to pro-­claim
new dogma. It is not trying to destroy. All it
is saying is ''Wake up!"
I want to say "Thanks" to a few people who are
long overdue in being thanked. It's a funny thing that
we grow complacent in our surroundings and forget
very often the people who help to vitalize our life
here.
I want very much to thank every teacher on the
faculty who ever made a radical statement in class
and then allowed his students to argue with him. This
is the man who sees clearer than most the real func­tion
of education, who recognizes the value of dia­logue
in the classroom. I think that ideas and beliefs
are made stronger by such a teacher. Alfred North
Whitehead was not speaking to this teacher when he
said: "Students are alive. and the purpose of educa·
tion is to .timulate and guide their self-development."
I also want to thank Frs. McCormick and Gal­larelli.
whose understanding of our unique situation
and problems has made life at Fairfield a little more
enjoyable. In a position where the letter of the law
can become very easily the sole concern, these men
have realized that it is the spirit of the law which
must be considered and that rules must be flexible in
order to be acceptable.
Special praise should be given to ow' student pre­fects
who find themselves in the unique and uncom­fortable
position of being members both of the student
body and the Administration. In an area where power
can easily become a goal rather than a tool, they have
suppressed any dictatorial desires and have always
gone out of their way not to use their weight against
the students.
Appreciation should also be expressed to the
members of the Student Government who have shown
that the new Constitution not only can but does work
effectively. I would only ask that the Legislature let
us know a little sooner what it plans to do.
To these people. and to the numerous others who
work without praise and without thanks for the bene­fit
of the University I can only say thanks for making
Fairfield a little better. I think I speak not only for
myself but for the majority of the Student Body.

Zavatsky Talks
On New Poets
The staff of New Frontiers
met in their office in Campion
Hall on November 30 lQ hear
guest lecturer, William Zavat­sky.
His topic was "The Modem
American Poets."
Selections were read from
"The Anthology of Modem
American Poetry" and several
other SOUI"CeS, James Wright's
work, "Saint Judas," was read
with several creatiqns of X. F.
Kennedy, the (onnalistie writer
of comic verse. Also included
were !lC'lDe lyric poems by Dylan
Thomas. LeRoi Jones _ whose
play ''The Dutchman" is in off­Broadway
production, and the
Quasl.beatnik artist. Karl Sha­piro.
Zavatsky nQ.ted that the trend
for most modem poets is to
turn to drama or criticism. He
stated though that this had a
derogatory eflect. His ~m­mendation
to the assembled
writers was to try- translation.
Zavatsky said Ezra Po,unds'
''Translations'' and John Ciar­di's
translations of the "In·
femo" and Purgatorlo" of Dante
were examples of noted Amer­ican
J)QCts turning their skills
to trnnslation,
It was proposed that in the
ncar future a discussion will be
held on James RtL"5ell Lowell
and hls work. This was the
third in the continuing series of

Do we want Lew Alcindor? Who doesn't 7 This
7'13,4," All-American is the most sought-after basket­ball
player throughout the nation in the history of the
game.
An article in the Trenton Times last week had
Mr. Alcindor all but assigned to a room on campus.
This sounds dandy, but the story is nothing more than
a fabrication of erroneous and miseonstructed "facts:'
These facts should be set straight once and for
alL To date, Lew Alcindor has not indicated in any
manner whether he's coming to Fairfield. The article
also points out that Coach Bisacca's "contract" tennin­ates
very coincidentally at the dose of the season.
T~e fact of the matter is that there is nothing in Mr.
BlSacca's "form of agreement" that validates this
statement and. furthermore, there's no sound reason
for it. Tltis could only be detrimental to Fairfield's
image.
The policy of the school concerning athletes is
no different than those standards adopted for the
general body. Now that some of these points are
cleared, let's look at the situation realistically. Why
would Lew Alcindor want to come to Fairfield?
Other schools can offer (and they are offering!)
him much in way of "benefits" that go beyond the
idea of a school in the true sense of the word. If
Fairfield were to start the practice of enticing ath­letes
on this basis our image would be changed. Sure,
we'd have top basketball ratings, but is tbis what
we're really after? Would we be willing to sacrifice
our academic rating for athletic fame? Fairfield is not
a "basketball factory" and we'll never become one.
The price is too expensive.
This, of course, doesn't mean that we'd be lower­ing
our standards in this one particular case. This
simply explains the school policy. If it should ever
com~ tc? the poif!t of comprolTl;ising our standards, Fair­field
s LInage Will suffer. This great disservice to the
school would be heading straight for trouble for one
unethical pl'actice undoubtedly leads to oth~rs.
~e have two benefits that we can offer to a pro­spective
ball-player. Our opposition rates with the
toughest so that we are able to present the most com­petitive
schedule in the .state. Secondly, and more im­por'~
ant, after ~ompletmg four years of academic
achivement, Falrneld bestows a diploma which we
are all proud of and hold in the highest esteem.
So the Question remains, "Where wiU Lew Alcin­dar
go to school 1" The answer lies in Mr. Alcindor's
idea of a school.
Tonight, the Stags meet Seton Hall on the home
court. The Pirates have two big boys in their starting
five in 6'7", 225 pound Harry Slaton and Richie Dec.
Slaton has been plagued by injuries for the past
two seasons and consequently hasn't been up to his
peak in performance. Tonight, he's healthy and he'll
be tough both offensively and off the boards.
Dec sh~uld not be underestimated. His play last
year was dunmed. by the prolific scoring of Nick
Werkman, but he still managed a 15 point average for
the past two seasons.
F:airfield has met Seton Hall three times starting
back In 1961 and we have yet to come out a vietor.
With the tremendous spirit and desire on the part of
the team and fans at Saturday's Fordham WIn the
Stags can add another first tonight. •

Rich Gqggin played a fine

the Hawks put a eramp in the

Last Saturday the BlsaCCa­men
played before a S R 0
crowd of over 4,000 people. at
the Rose Hill campus. Falrfteld
edged the Rams in a closely
contested Came, 73-70.
Mike Branch. after having
brought the StagS from behind
71.70, was trying lQ nan the
clock out when he was fouled
with four seconds left. This
presented a one and one situa­tion
and Mike, as calm as ever,
sunk both of them.
'Ibe team looked completely
dill'erent from the one TuesdaY
night. Fqrdham'S attempt at a
press failed as Jim Brown, Joel
Pascale, and Bill Pritz thwarted
such a defenee wUh their mag­niflcent
ball-handling. On one
occasion Brown drove past
Wayne McGuirt and went the
length of the court to score a

John Stevens (20 pta.l 6'5 cen­ter
and Fordham's candidate
fqr All-Ameriean, was Cabulous
in rebounding and tap.lns
around the basket Stevens
played gOQd defensive ball too
as he held Branch to 5 pOints in
the first balf.
Probably the main factor for
the Stags victory was the all­out
hustle of Pat Burke and
Jim Brqwn. Burke was high·
scorer with 26 points but was
also helpful in the rebounding 29
department and on defense. Fordl,am ...•... Z1
Pat used an assortment of
drives and jump shots to stifle
the Ram defense.
Jim Brown (25 pls.) played
another tremendous game as he
was terri6c underneath and
was the main faetor that caused
Fordham to change their de­fensive
tactics.
