This marks the first time that
the University has had to make
an appeal for special exception
to construct a new building, as
a result of the 1965 ZOning
Code. This new provision states
that private institutions must
attain such an exception from
the Commission on any new
building.
The case will next go before
the Court of Common Pleas.
This litigation will take a min­imum
of six weeks; however, as

their appeals to a higher court,
the delay would continue. The

Barbaric
On Friday, February 11, a
false fire alarm was set off on
the first floor of Loyola. It is use­less
here to reiterate the fool­ishness
and danger of such an
immature action. Let it suffice
to mention that the Captain who
answered the call stated that the
only other offense of this kind
this year occurred in a nursery
school, by a child mistaking the
alarm for a light switch.
The question is what is to be
done about it? The corridor was
at least half occupied at the
time, and there is a possibility
that aomeone saw who puned
the alann. Will any student who
saw this, or any such action, turn
a fellow student into the Student
Court, or will he wait until the
administration finds who it was
and turns that person over to
the court?
If the former course is taken.

Students then would make
The
direct use of the system they
set-up and maintain. They are
policing themselves and admin­istering
their own justice.
If the students shun their re·
sponsibility, then the Court will
become just what it is often
called, an arm of the admiffis..
tration, a body that simply
hands out prescribed sanctions
for the administration.
The type of court run by the
students is dependent on the in­tegrity
of each student. When
the accusation "adminisb'ation
tool" is hurled, it can only be
directed to the student body ­not
the court itself, which only
can act on the cases reported to
it - nor to the adminisb'ation,
which must assume the role of
turning in these cases only when
the students themselves fail.
Students alone are responsible
if an effective student disciplin­ary
mechanism has become a
tired rubber stamp.

Letters To The Editor
The least common denomina­tor
of all gentlemen is that they
do not offend other people. In
addition to being non-offensive,
a gentleman is usually consider­ate
.of the feelings and the well­being
of his fellow men. Acting
according to the minimum tradi­tions
of civility is a mandate that
does not have to be grounded in
the Christian commitment: even
the pagans of antiquity expected
such behavior from civilized
men.
It was as obvlous two thou­sand
years ago as it is today
that civiJ behavior does not in~

New Liberalism
To the EDrroRS of the STAG:
Gentlemen.
May I preswne to seek, through
your Jdnd otnces, to reach the editors
at the Sophcmore newsletter.
In the January 7th lsIue of COM­MONWEAL,
two unusual and, I -be­lieYe,
prophetic items appeared: Carl
0g)eIby'1 "Bankruptcy of the Liberals"
(an a.ddre&t delivered em November
27. 1965 during the March on Washln&:­ton
for Peace in Vietnam), and Peter
Stel.nfels' "A Response to Oglesby".
I am more immediately concerned
with a rnponse to these Items, how·
evc, appearing as a letter to the
toxication at a public gathering,
puerile disregard for authority,
and discourtesy toward those
whose age or sex demands re­spect.
Yet the obvious seems to
have escaped the grasp of some
of the Fairfield students who
have attended recent basketball
games.
Ideally, the Fairfield student
should live the life of a ChJis..
tian. Even if he has conveniently
tucked away his Christian prin­ciples,
he is still expected to aet
like a civil human being in the
presence of others. Despite all
evidence to the contrary displays
of barbarism are not the ac·
cepted mode of behavior at com·
petitive sports events.
editors of COMMONWEAL in the Feb­ruary
11th Issue, beginning on p. 547
and continued on p. 565. I would like
to paraphrase this communication of
Mr. Wllllam W. Goetz of Chatham,
N. J. with respect to the "new liber­alism"
of the Sophomore newsletter­men
because I find myself, like Mr.
Goetz, experiencing stuvers down my
aging (but I hope) liberal spine".
Since the wise policy of the STAG Is
to limit the length of communications
however, I shall content myself with
citation of an interesting statistic and
personal experience. The statistic, that
upon the opening day of 1965 there
were on this old planet 35,968 Jesuits;
the personal experience, that in my
years as a Jesuit I bave found that
the cited lltaUstiC does mean one thing,
but it also most definitely, means some
several thousand dift'erent things as

Good hunting to the new Editors

Poor Backing

"show" our Fa1rtield Stags put on for
the people at Providence College on
this put Wednelday, Feb. 9. I refer
to the students - Dot the basketball

our school, can we not, knowing that
we were able to make such an 1m.

I'm sure we did a great deal for the
prestige of Fairfield University by our
performance.

student body! Many of the Fairfield
students at that game showed them­selves
to be completely Immature.
crude, and foolish. There Is no excuse
for the conduct displayed by said stu­dents
. . . they have, In my opinion,
disgraced the school, and given us a
notoriety that will take a long time
to live down.
We lost to ProvIdence College and
this makes everybody very unhappy.
I, for one. am not - we deserved to
lose. Do we merit a championship bas­ketball
team when the student body
"behind" it is so unsportsmanlike, so
gross, and so strictly "bush-league?"
I think we owe an apology to Provi­dence
College, and to the people who
attended the game. The question is:
will we make such an apology. can we
make such an apology, and would It
do any good? The hanD done, it seems
to me, is great, and Is also, quite
possibly, irreparable.

Call To Action
To the Editor:
We would like to suggest to those
individuals interested In exercising
their freedom and responsibility in a
positive way, that you pledge your­selves
to attend Mass every school
day during Lent. Pledge forms read­ing:
"As a positive Lenten prnctiee,
1, pledge myself to at-tend
Mass every class day during
Lent, in reparation for my sins
and the sins or the world, to thank
God for his blessings on me and
on those I love, and to beg Him
for peace in my own life and peace
in the world"
can be found on the offertory table in
the back of the chapel. The box of
pledges will be place on the altar
during the Masses on Ash Wednesday.
Masses on Ash Wednesday and all
class days during Lent arc at 11:10
a.m., 12:10 p.m.. 1:10 p.rn. and 10:00

PATRICK J. BURKE, JR.
194' - 1966
As Pat dribbled up the
court with that ever-present
look of confidence on his
face, you just knew that he
was in full control of the
game. First they tried Sulli­van,
then Hollendoner, and
finally Barry. But it was to
no avail, for this was Pat
Burke in his finest hour. Last
February the Stags, consid­erably
weakened by the ab­scence
of Mike Branch, did
not seem to have a chance
against the tall and talented
Hoyas. But what George­town
didn't realize was that
they were up against Pat
Burke, a kid who was at his
best when the odds were
against him.
From the opening tap
until he fouled out with six
minutes remaining in the
game, Pat amazed the over~
flow crowd with as fine an
exhibition of basketball as
you'll ever see. He not
only scored 34 points, but
literally controlled the
boards against a monstrous
Georgetown front line on
pure guts and hustle. I can
still remember the ovation
Pat received. It didn't seem
possible that that many
people could make so much
noise, but somehow they
did! This was Pat Burke as
we will always remember
him.
The road was never easy
for Pat, but he' had that in·

pride! It was this pride
which refused to allow him

pride which drove him to
his greatest heights on the

critics ardent followers and
non~believers believers!
Wherever Pat was, there
seemed to be a crowd and

in these surroundings that
Pat was at home and it was
in this setting that you came
to know Pat as he really was.
He had his fears and hopes
like anyone else; yet in
many cases, his were hidden
underneath his outgoing per~

he seemed almost embarras­sed
at the fact, it could not

lingered on into the night.
A tone had been set for
the next three days at Fair­field.
Students went out of
their way to attend daily
Masses during the remainder
of the week. Faculty, both

Pat, like many other great
basketball stars, often
thought of wh.t it would be
like to play on a team like
U. C. L. A., Kentucky, or
Duke, However, in one of
those moments when he re­vealed
his true inner feel­ings,
Pat said to me; "Fitzie,
you know, I wouldn't have
wanted .to go to one of
those schools because ....
there is something about
Fairfield!" And the truth is
that there was something
about Pat Burke! It was this
something which made you
feel that a little of yourself
died with him.
It was a heartening sight
to see the turnout of Fair­field
students and the large
number of communicants at
the funeral Mass. It was
a tribute not only to Pat but
to his parents, who can be
rightly proud of him as he
was of them.
As the basketball season
slowly comes to a close, I
know that Mr. Bisacca and
the players would like noth­ing
better than winning the
N. I. T. championship, for it
would be a lasting tribute to
Pat. No matter what hap­pens
in the future, Pat
Burke will always be remem~
bered in our hearts and in
our prayers.

I,ntelligent And Unaltered Jazz - Art or Commercialism
"Weare all here together and we are dead ..•"
- Henry Miller
Last year there was a student revolt. With the
aid of a small group of faculty members and thought.
ful individuals, the student body caught fire and
realized that the time it was spending at the Univer­sity
was to n great extent time wasted. The movement
was begun to re·vitaJize Fairfield and create within
its walls the spirit of criticism, inquiry and soul·
searching that is the height of an academic com·
munity's achievements.
Perhaps it can be said that the spirit was mit­guided.
Perhaps it will be sug:gested th~t the '.'student
revolt" in actuality charactenzed a deSire to Jump on
the Berkeley bandwagon. Perhaps the present reac­tionary
spirit of the Administration, faculty, and .st~­dent
body can be justified on the grounds that It 18
better not to act than to act with incomplete prep.ara­tion
and knowledge. Perhaps the revolt was dISor­dered,
and pernaps disordered revolt leads to confo­sioQn
rather I.han clarification.
If thia ia the u.e, if the action lakeD by lut
year'. atudenb ia to be coocl~, theD w~ m~t
condemn along with it the .pmt of bOOMt mqwtY
and tbe deaire for truth that .parked the lead.... of
this demonatration of activity. If this is d~, thea w.e
cannot in the aame voice coodemn the aplnt of anb-intellectualism
that preaent1¥ pre.ail.. .
But is this the case? Was Berkeley a fad, an "l~
thing" for 1965, or was it raWler the external mam­festation
of a growing consciousness on ~he part of
the American student that he had preVIOusly been
indoctrinated, and now he wished to be educated?
The ultimate q~estion. and it is a question that must
be answered at I"airfield if we are going to move to­ward
anything, is whether the student must conform
his intellect to the will of the Administration.
I for on~ am nol yet ready to accept this situation
as normal. The l·eactic.>nary spiri~ whi~h has taken
root here in the past SiX months 18 entirely contrary
to the true nature of a university. We did not, C?r .at
least should not have come here to playa sophistic­ated
game of follow·the-Ieader. We came here.to
delennine for ourselves whether the leader was In·
deed the right leader, and whether or not the game
should be played at all. . _.
According to John Dewey the ultimate cntenon
for any action is whether it leads to growth, both. the
growth of the individual. a';ld the growth of 8OCl~.
But society cannot grow if It holds firm to the belief
that its method of doing things is the only method;
if it clings to the concepts and id,eas of the. past and
disregards present changes which may lUvalldate
these ideas.
Intellectualism represents the concept that truth
must be continually pursued. It holds nothing as
sacred. and is willing to discard its most cherished
beliefs if they stand in the way of progress.
Anti-intellectualism, now running wild at Fair­field
is suicidal. It threatens to destroy the one thing
that' makes Fairfield a university, namely love of
truth. It is too late to blame, and it is useless to con­demn
anyone faction as responsible for this self­destructive
trend. The call is to action. The Adminis­tration
must act to preserve the University, the faculty
mu,st act to savooe thcmselv68 from stagnation, and die
atllden.. muat act to free themaelvea from the bonds
of immaturity.
I would think that the first thrust must come
from the students, since their danger is most imme·
diate, but this thrust will be useless if last year's fear
blocks progress. Faculty and AdminiatratioD .bould

I once heard an unknown and obscu~e acto~ pr!>""
claim that he only wants to do one beautiful thing m
his life - to act beautifully in one be~utiful pe!­formance
in one good play. Perhaps. that IS why. he .IS
obscure. But this means that every time he acts It will
be an attempt to do this one beautiful thing. It also
means that he believes in acting as supremely worth­while.
Nothing evel' really becomes good or wOlt~whi~e
unless we believe in it. How many students beheve m
education? Some of us only want to do one good paper
or think one original thought, As with the actor, this
means th<\t our every effort as students will be an
attempt to produce a good paper, to be ourselves, to
be oL'iginal or cl'eative.
But does not the educational system defe<\t us?
It can depersonalize LIS. We sometimes feel that we
;ue only as good as OlU' last mark: that we are that
0, 01' C, or B, 01' A: depersonalized. And how can we
believe in education when some of our professors seem
not to believe in it? Sometimes we think we have
something to lell them; sometimes we really do. But
they do not always listen. Can a professor believe in
education if he does not believe in the students - if
he thinks he has nothing to learn from them?
Aware of the sheer ineptitude which exists in
every institution or system, 1 nevertheless ask: Why
is there so much dead wood in Academe 1 Because, I
would answer, so many students and teachers simply
do not believe in education, They believe in rote, in
memory, in accumulation of information, tests - even
in thinking, when it retraces certain already defined
lines, But they do not possess what I would like to
call a Socratic belief in education.
l-~or education to be fully human and not merely
mechanical (recognizing, of course, the practical ne­cessity
of methods and mechanics), we must believe
to some extent that viltue is knowledge. We believe
in education by belie\'ing that we can come to know
ourselves through it: that students, with inevitable
discomfort for professors and administrators, can form
their own values without conventional wisdom being
handed down to them.
All this may seem too ideal to be realized, Per­haps
it is, That one beautiful play that the actor
wants to act is a difficult ideal. But it keeps him going.
He believes in it. And nothing can develop without
such a trust. A person cannot love us unless we b'ust
in him; Christ cannot be accomplished in the world
unless we believe in Him. (How many really do be­lieve
in Him, MI'. Walsh 1) Do you believe in history
or literature 1 Do you believe in medicine 1 Do you
believe in business management 1 Do you believe that
these things, or the study of them, is worthwhile in
your life, and in human life in general?
But, enough. I have risked overworking a thought
and becoming too abstract, and have come dangerous­ly
close to saying nothing at all. And I must say that
I would never have conceived this idea of belief in
education but for my encounter with great and won­deliul
professors and students who possess a Socratic
attitude toward education. To them I must apologize
for the near-vituperation of paragraphs three and
four.
Just let me conclude by asking: Do we have the
belief in ourselves and in education that Buddy Glass
has, who, at the end of "Seymour - An Introduc­tion,"
is on his way to teach a class in Room 307, and
says, "I know - not always, but I know - that there
is no single thing 1 do that is more important than
going into that awful Room 307..'

Dear Grace ...
J think J mentioned once that as a lark of sorts
I had been reading over the old issues of the STAG
which date back to 1950 or so. (In fact I remember
saying to you that some of those issues had tfte same
decaying quality of yellow brittleness that certain
teachers' notes have. That's how old they seemed 1)
But to get on with it ...
What really struck me when reading the old
newspapers was the clear caricature they gave of the
early Fairfield student. He was quite difterent from
today's student and, in a way, it reinforced my opti­mism
that progress doe. march on, even at Fairfield.
The Stags of yesteryear were of the unanimous
opinion that they were indeed in the best of all pos­sible
worlds. Their unhesitating acceptance of Trent's
pronouncements on education; their docile subser­vience
when it came to descending into their respec­tive
niches of static self-congratulation; and their
uncompromising adulation of even the worst courses
and teachers made me feel homesick in a way. Some­thing
like the feeling I get when I think of the Cru­sades_
Of course their "mission" was a great one. They
were destined to go out and save the world from that
evil of evils: secular education! The Old Breed hung
on valiantly for many a year preaching the virtues of
humble igJ10ranCe, monolithic security, and belief in
a system of education whereby a student exists only
through a beneficent gratuity. But alas! They were
doomed when it was discovered that College was
meant for learning.
Meanwhile, of course, the gods of good and evil
ll.e.: Catholic education and secular education)
clashed violently outside the gates of Fairfield Uni­versity.
Change waa coming. The New Breed - those
insidious cl'eatures! - came to undennine a system
that had worked for 57,000 years, or thereabouts.
And SO gradually Fail-field changed. Most of the Old
Breed withered away, so to spenk, although - to be
sure - some are still out on the old vine. In their
place came modified approaches and even the hope
of eventually building an extremely good Catholic
University.
The gradual and liberalizing changes horrifiet.
the usual contingent of Prophets of Doom, but on the
part of the more rational, there was a belief that a
Catholic University could gear itself to answering
modern questions and at the same time more thor­oughly
Christianize the real essence of the education.
This evolution was also to be seen in the type of
student who did time at Fairfield. Here and there was
seen evidence of students who escaped the clutches of
stupefying medievalism and took on some of the char­actel1stics
of a college man. Some even dared to sug­gest,
to criticize, to analyze. There was a slow but
sure infusion of the attitude that the College contract
implies duties and responsibilities BOTH ways and
not just one. The Student Body was still as homo­geneous
as ever, still lacked diversity of outlook and
opinion, and still displayed characteristics of placid
and indifferent complacence, but a few students were
serious and intelligent enough to begin influencing the
University decisions that would ultimately affect all
students.
Setbacks, threats, and retaliatory actions aside,
some gains were made, and many avenues of ap­proach
were unclogged. The Student Council became
the Stu~ent Gov.ernment; the Court came into being
(both since demised, some say); and the air became
one of mild enthusiasm.
And the rest I think you MOW: the concern
~oiled ~p last ,rear al~~ became the year of "apathy,"
commitment, and change!" But something hap­pened.
Perhaps some small bit of courage some de­gree
of maturity was lost. Last spring's ye::'r of prom­ise
became the year of disappointment.
A marked regression of the quality of student
leaders brought smiles to the lips of the Old Breed
wrought havoc on the hope of' an involved student
body, and gave quiet acquiescence to the New Reign
of Terror, The charges of "ignorant," "uncultured"
and "barbaric" as applied to students Wel'e dusted dff
and brought into full force again.
And you know, Grace, it's true. All of us here are
lethargically happy, intellectually dead, and cultur­ally
barbaric. As to the 'whys', maybe that's for later.
Yours,
Lou PeddiCOl'd

New H•.,...., Conn,
Although the team has solidified its claim as a
big time power with an impressive win over St. Bona~
venture last Saturday night, big time support has yet
to be realized from Stag supporters. Too often they
have failed miserably in their attempts to provide
team incentive through their cheering.
At the New Haven Arena, Boston College and
St. Peters the Stags displayed a spirit which would
have rivaled any school in enthusiasm. Since then,
however, Stag fans have fizzled more than once in
the clutch. The culmination of this might be exempli­fied
by the poor Stag support during that disastrous
week when the team dropped three games.
At Villanova the Stags marched into the Palestra
45 minutes before game time singing and cheering;
however, a spotty show of first half cheering was
overshadowed by a seemingly second half silence as
the Stags died in their seats. It certainly wasn't the
cheering section which helped ignite a near victory
comeback. Surely the loss of the bass drum didn't
affect us that much.
At Providence it was the quality, more than the
quantity of Stag cheering which was often out of
order and justly criticized.
The Stags pre-game ceremony included a colorful
burst of sU'eamers, but again it was only in the first
half that any significant morale boosting support was
given the team. Once the game was apparently out of
reach Stag rooter'S. inebriated and otherwise, resorted
to obscenities and unsportsmanlike gestures in front
of the Providence crowd and a host of sportswriters,
a few of whom could very well consider this conduct
when N.I.T. invitations are extended. We were ob·
viously sore losers.
In our own gym the majority of shouting is done
during the wamlUp session and early part of the
game. It is not unusual to find Stags sitting back con­tented
once a game is obviously won.
During the Niagara game a certain very few
children (we won't call them Stags) took advantage
of the physical disability and nationality of an oppos­ing
player to harass him constantly. despite the ob­vious
annoyance of several adult members of the
crowd.
Probably the ma.t d~ilhuioni~ inci~nt of tbe
season was the booing of coach Bisacca durin. tbe
introductions before the American glUDe. It waa a ..d
and unfair tribute to a man who had endured a trying
week beforehand and i. in the proc:eaa of completing
hi. m_t .uccessful seuon as Staa mentor.
But perhaps the biggest disappointment has been
the cheerleaders. Too often they have failed to lend
the well·intentioned Stags in unified cheering nnd
have not infrequently been shown up by opposing
cheerleaders. The Villanova and regretful Providence
incidents might have been averted had the cheerlead­ers
done their job.
An interesting note is that cheerleaders are sub·
sidized by several campus organizations and enter all
games free of charge yet many times fail to lead the
Stag cheering section. A couple of cheerleaders
walked right into the D.E. game but little cheering
was heard all night.
So generally speakins, large Stag turnouts have
often been defeated in purpose through lack of cheer­ing
and poor conduct. And it should be ob"ua that
.trelUDers and a ba.s drum do DOt suffice for leader­ship
provided by good. cheerleaden.
This Saturday at Georgetown the Stags will be
a small minority and will have to deal with a hostile
crowd. We can either make ourselves heard and give
the team vital support through organized cheering or
be drowned out in this crucial game.
N.I.T. or DOt, win or lose, let's be behind the
team 100% all of the time. A good. cheeriq section
with competent cheerleaden can help a team tre­mendously,
but by the same taken a bush league
crowd of Stags is sure to do nothing but hann.
Whether or not Stag fans and cheerleaders are
wil!in~ to m!lke a f~w changes depends mainly on
thell'slncere mterest In the team and Fairfield. I know
they can do it because they have done it in the past,
though not often enough.
