A MOST IMPORTANT ITEM
Focus Editor Quits
Re: Dear ?til'. McGovern,
It is with a great deal of regret and
disappointment that I have to indicate
my wish to resign on October 31, 1966,
from the Executive Board of the Student
Government of Fairfield University.
My brief stay with the Student Government
has been both a very happy
and rewarding one. Sin~ this is true
however, I t1.nd as Chairman of Publications
that I devote an unreasonable
amount of concentration and time managing
FOCUS 80 that it will be of the
same high caliber as the Student Government.
This situation is extremely
unfortunate since it produces an academic
situation which Is very distressing
I sincerely regret any Inconvenience
which my resignation might cause you
and the Student Government. I am certainly
available at any time to eliminate
such an inconvenience.
Sincerely yours,
Paul J. O'Donnell

Letters To The Editor
Praise For O'Donnell
To thc Editor:
In the course of running any University
organization, there are certain
thankless jobs that must be done by a
few selfless individuals. In the past few
months we have seen such a job performed
and go by virtually unnoticed.
It is seldom that a Chainnan of Publications
for any organization is caUed
upon to type out that publication him·
self, cut stencils, and then crank off the
t1.nished copies slowly, painfully. by hand
It is al80 seldom that anyone wll1 make
a trip to Fairfield from Washington,
D.C., during the summer to sit in on a
three-day budget meeting.
That is why we think attention must
be paid, and thanks given, to Paul
O'Donnell for the job he did in getting
"Focus" off the ground. Lack of support
caused him to resign, and nobody can
blame him for doing so.
He will be missed.

man and to entrust the running
of the STAG to the capable talents
of Richard Peck.
It is with the deepest regret
and reluctance that I give up a
job before its completion; however,
I see no other alternative
if the STAG is to maintain its
professional standards and attainment.
I shall neyer re~ret having
served the STAG as Chairman of
the Board, and I shall remain
ever willing to be of any assistance
during the coming year.
Thank you for your kind consideration.
The problem may lie in the
fact of their physical separation
from the University. Many members
of the senior class who have
moved off campus have shown a
total lack of interest in campus
life.
Therefore dt is doubtful whether
improving communication would
be a solution. Anyone wanting to
take part in activities could find
out what is going on on campus
with a minimum of effort. The
lack of participation from the
majority of commuting students
is more due to lack of interest.
One solution would be a residency
requirement of two or more
years as a pre·requisite for graduation.
This would glive a cohesive
influence to the student body. The
administration should continue
building of donnitories at its present
rate to enable all students to
avail themselves of the opportunity
of donnitory life. This solution
has several drawbacks, however,
financially, both for the university
and for the student.
We believe that stop-gap efforts
at communication are doomed
to failure in the majority of
cases if some means of providing
a common college experience is
not found. More than a common
academic life is required, and extra
curricular activities are presently
falling ShOlt of their expectations
in this respect.
paring an extensive study of coeducation
on other campuses. It
will include a review of the benefits
co-education has brought to
nlany colleges, as well as highlight
arguments that have kept
several colleges from making the
change.
The obligation on the part of
the student body falls most heavily
to this year's Freshmen and
Sophomores, for they will be most
affected by any change in favor
of co-education. We must all realize
at the same time that the
vote we render for or against coeducation
at Fairfield will decide
the future course of the University
on this matter.

THE STAG
Fairfield University
Fellow Members of the Board:
As you know, three weeks ago
1 received notification of my
nomination for a Woodrow Wilson
Fellowship. At that time Dr.
McDonald advised me to relinQuish
my duties on the STAG
until my application was nearly
completed. I then asked the
Board for a short leave of absence
which was granted.
Realizing the vital importance
for an active Chairman and my
own inability to fulfill the obligations
of Chainnan for the next
few weeks, 1 feel compelled to
submit my resignation as Chair-
II The existing split between
the commuting students and
the resident students is a long
standing problem facing t~e u~versity.
It is brought to lIght III
every election when candidates
attempt to enlist commuter support
by promising variou~ r~m~~
dies to increase "communIcation
and "integration," which are
promptly forgotten by them once
in office.
That all too frequently cited
reason of lack of communication
is often thought the apex of the
commuter problem. The advent
of the Campus Center was to be
a solution, with a mailbox for
each student, and a snack bar
providing a common meeting
ground. However, fliers are not
allowed in the mailboxes (which
is the easiest and fastest means
of communication) and the snack
bar has become an almost exclusive
commuter meeting place
during the day.
This split is all the more unfortunate
becaus~ some of the academically
best students are commuters.
We feel there is a fundamental
difference in the college experience
for the resident and the commuter.
An integral part of the
total experience of college is living
away from home. There is a
danger that for the commuter college
may resemble four more
years of high school.
However, Student Government
President Kevin McGovern assures
us that in coming weeks an
extensive dialogue on the pros
and cons of going co-educational
at Fairfield will begin. In
conjunction with the Studen~ Government's
effort, the STAG IS pre-
That a recent editorial announcement
on the possibility of going
co·ed in the near future was
greeted with amused doubt by
much of the student body is not

our academic experience as well

Student Court Decides
Two Controversial Cases
representative to the U.N.
This week was one of the
first tangible results of the
"tri-university" concept, which
will unite the three Universities
of the Bridgeport area into
a more effective educational
unit. The International Relations
clubs of the three schools
united, on their own initiative
to plan the week's occurances.
Advantages to this type of
co-ordination of resources are
that the clubs can obtain better
speakers, reach more people,
and have more participants
in the organization of thehactivities.
The success of U.N.
week has caused the clubs to
decide to sponsor similar events
and to make U.N. week activities
an annual occurranee.
The International Relations
Club of Fairfield University was
organized last spring Its purpose
as stated In its constitution,
is "... to provide opportunity
for the student body to
gain a greater understanding
and interest in foreign affairs..."
Its President Is Bill
Kosher '67. The club has tentative
plans for a Latin American
Conference next semester.

The Student Court has hand·
cd down its decision on two
controversial cases brought to
its attention.
The first concerns the charge
of indecent exposure and conduct
unbecoming a Fairfield
student during the Iona football
game. Justice J. Blackburn is·
sued the court's decision.
BLACKBURN J; It is the
opinion of this CoUI·t that Student
A did commit on the evening
of October seventh nineteen
hundred and sixty-six an act of
indecent exposure and did con·
duct himself in a manner un·
becoming that of a Fairfield
gentleman. Student A pleaded
guilty to both counts. The Court
chooses to consider both counts
as one since the act of indecent
exposure could be Interpreted
to fall under the general in·
fraction of unbecoming conduct.
Since the Student pleaded
guilty, it is lhe duty of the
Court to determine the extent
of punishment which Student
A is to receive. The reputation
and the character of Student
A has been established by the
appearance of a number of
l'eputable witnesses who attested
to the otherwise good
and honest character of Stu·
dent A. However the damaged
l'eputation and injury to the
name of Fairfield University,
and the seriousness of the act
itself cannot be refuted. The
Court feels that the Discipline
.must be concerned first with
the Individual and the offense
and secondly with the effect
upon the campus society. The
Court cannot justifiably com·
pare typical and abnonnal behavior.
The Court therefore decides

abnormal behavior of Student
A and with the seriousness of

In 1954, the Marian Year, a group of students, aided by Fr.
John Bonn, founded a university publication - New Frontiers.
They stated their purpose quite dearly in the foreword to the
first issue:
A venture such as ours does not spring from a
sudden whim which has accidentally come to
fruition; instead it arises from the desires aDd
demands of a segment of a generation wbicb cries
for expression. Within our ranks we have a group
of writers who have been, to a large degree, responsible
for the conception of this magazine and
the excellence of its material. They are Ralph
Marcarelli, Francis X. Mathews, John Nemec and
Arthur EInhorn. Using their ideas as a guide,
we have progressed to this first issue.
The important thing to remember is that New Frontiers was
founded in answer to a student demand, a need for expression.
At one juncture of its existence the student-edltors decided,
slnce it was a university publication representing all departments,
that they would model it after Renascence of Marquette University,
the Yale Review, Thought of Fordham, and the Kenyon
Review. So outsIde contributors were pUblished. Outstanding men
in their professions, men paid for their wrIting in other journals,
willingly solicited to be pl1blisbed in New Frontiers. They were
men like Martln D'Arcy, Robert Drinan, John Unterecher, John
Stevens Wade and dozens of others. It was a mark of distinction
for students and faculty here to know that their writing was
being published alongside the best.
So the magazine grew to an international reputation. ManuscrIpts
came from all parts of the world. The British Museum,
Yale, Stanford, and the University ot Chicago took subscriptions
and renewed them. They were just a few of one hundred and
fifty colleges, universities, and libraries who received the magazine.
This year the Republic of India asked for sample copies for
an American Cultural Exhibit; the Library of Congress requested
the same for an anthology of American magazines; and the
Houses of Parliament of both Australia and New zealand commended
the magazine for a recent Issue.
But everything ended this month. What started in answer to
a student demand for a means of llterary expression, ceased by
the decree of thc administration. Never at any time were the
faculty moderators or student editors consulted or lnfonned on
the "suspension" of New Frontiers. But this breach of common
courtesy is nothing compared to the lack of consideration for the
student body and faculty of the university who should have been
informed. The administration had formed a value judgment and
taken away their means of Uterary expression in a quaUty publication.
The facts are that manuscripts were ordered returned without
the knowledge of thc magazine's officers, that the magazine was
quietly cut off the list of university activities, that the moderators'
and editors' InqUiries were answered only with the vague reply,
"Student publications are under investigation." The administration
has never given any reasons, never explaIned the basis for their
action. But the injustice was not to the magazine; it was to the
students and faculty who found in that magazine a means of expression.
Jesuit coUeges have never turned out good authors;
perhaps one of the reasons is made clear by the administration's
recent action.
A thing of beauty has gone out of existence; we are all the
less for its passing; we are all cheapened a bit by the way It
passed. But we do not ask for crocodile tears or requlems, just a
few answers.

The term "warmth" refers
specifically to a jazz musician's
approach to both his music and
to his instrument, and can probably
be best related to the
term "respect." The jazz artist
must first respect and make a
definite attempt to blend his
own ideas, motives, and emotions,
with those of his fellow
perfonners. Secondly, the artist
must respect his instrument in
terms of his approach and his
capabilities as a musician. In
other words, he cannot, or at
least Should not, abuse the harmonic
and tonal Qualities of his
instrument by overplaying it,
that is, attempting to express
or present an emotior. to his
audience which he is not per_
sonally experiencing or attempting
to play that which he is
stylistically Wlable to play.
Finally, the jazz artist must
be conscious at all times of his
effort in relation to and as a
contribution to the culture of
jazz as a whole. Of what conseQuence
is his contribution to
jan as an art-form?
It is, then, the combination
of these two principles, wannUl
and impl'Ovlsation, which isolates
jazz from all other contemporary
music, and establishes
jazz as this COWltry'S only
original contribution to world
culture.

Academy
Meetings
83' Ed Dolan
The President's Academy of
19 undergraduates met recently
with an old list ot problems
and a ncw democracy of memo
bershlp.
At the first meeting, the
Presidcnt outlined to the group
the structure of the University
showing the main divisions of
Academic, Student services,
Operations, Planning, and University
Relations. The question
of C().education at Fairfield was
proposcci, along with J1l(!thods of
how this might be relayed to
the student body for debate and
consideration.
The group also discussed recent
anti-social incidents involving
Fairfield students, seeking
ways that might be used
to prevent repetitions of this
type of behavior.
A list of topics has been formulated
for discussion at future
Academy meetings. These include
such subjects as "Channels
of Communications," Scholarship
and Financial AJde," and
the "Intellectual We on the
Fairfield campus." AU topics
are "objectives and ideals towards
which the group wishes
to direct the eaorts of the University
community during the
coming )-ear." These topics relating
to the "general welfare"
of the student are presented on
a bi-weekly schedule.
"The Academy," according to
Fath(!r McInnes, "is designed to
provide a channel of commwtication
between President and
the student body." Membership
was formed this year from the
written appllcations of students
wishing to attend. No oaiclal
position or atIUiaUon was required.
The only requirement
for membership was a letter
llnd an Indication of "wllling_
ness to attend the meetings."
This form of membership was
voted on last spring; thus the
composition of the Acedemy includes
fewer student govern·
ment and organization otflclals
and more Individual non-a1filiation

It makes one think, I hope.
To Rnolt 1. Human
The "street demonstration" bas become an established. fact of
American life. It has kept the newspapers in the money and the
landed gentry on Its toes. The "street demonstration" respects no
geographical limits. It can occur as frequently in the West as In
the East and C1!rtainly in the North ai in the South. As a matter
of fact. it is now evident that the northern demonstrations have
become more violent than any in the South and have caused far
more damage. All the while the freedom riders were being beaten
and Federal marshals were prefecting southern campuses, the
North was complacently and self-righteously looking down its nose
and sitting back In smug satisfaction. We had no real "Negro
problem." What are they doing down there anyway? What are
they fighting? They lost the war, won't they ever give up? But
now the bombers have gone North and busted the cities wide
open. It should have been foreseen and perhapS It was; but. it is
fairly safe to say, that those In power would never admit its
inevitability. When the Cassandras said, "Watts nt'Xt" we thought
they were asking a question rather than predicting a human
holocaust_ The Dalys and the Shortys have met their Waterloo
and the Wagners got out just in time. Now, ironically, one of the
most progressive and human mayors in the field of civil rights is
a southerner, Ivan Allen o( Atlanta.
Perhaps the most imporumt new development in the history
of the "demonstration" Is the changing (ace of Its human composition.
Those who belong in the front lines of this struggle,
which is basically a moral one, are now taking their place. In a
recent article in the New York Times, John Cogley remarked.
··In recent years, religion and radical social activism SC1!m often
to be tightly linked:' Now clergy of all faiths arc marching and
witnessing and are the new social advant garde. They arc of all
shades of opinion from DuBay on the West Coast to the Jesuit.
Father Berrigan. on the East Coast.
They are, however, far from being accepted by their fellow
Christians. The example that stands out in my mind is the stoning
of Sister M. Angelica, O.S.F., the nun who marched in the Cicero
demonstration. The white mob, reported to be predominantly
Catholic, spilled their verbal venom as blood flowed on to her bib.
Unfortunately, these c1erro.' seem to have been In the minority
so far. Saul Allnsky, a professional agitator by admisaIon, tells of
his experienCi! in dealing with many clergy of aU faiths. "If I
approached them in a moralistic way. it would be outside of their
experienC1!, because Christianity and JudeoOJ.ristianlty are outside
of the experience of organized religion." If Alinsky Is right
and these men do not transcend the (onnal structure to communicate
the Ethic to their parishioners then perhaps the Ciceros
are both understable and Inevitable.
The Berkeley sociologist. Dr. Nalhan Glazer, in speaking
recently at a Brandeis symposium expressed the belie! that re-ligion
is not much o( a factor today on American campuses when
It comes to militant activism. Students are not drawing upon
religious backgrounds to justify their social beliefs or to modify
them in any way. '''They give it grudging respect, but their own
minds are militantly secular."
Father William F. Craney, editor of Chicago's l1rch~ocesan
newspaper, The New World. wrote in an editorial concerning the
Cicero uproar, "If Christ Our Lord came down upon this earth
again and marched In that demonstration. We would have been attacked
the same way. Especially if He had said that all men ought
to love one another. That would have infuriated the mob all the
more."

.uffered the lou of a man who in ao many way.
h.. been instrumental ill the ac:hool'. achievement in
the field of .porta.
Everett Barbour, who has been the. trainel· here
for the last three years, was forced to take his services
elsewhere. His reasons for resigning were clear cut and
easily understandable. He wanted seven thousand dollars
a year instead of his previously meager five thousand
dollars salary but his request was turned down
by the University Budget Committee, thus necessitating
his depal1.ure.
The possibility of getting someone to fill Ev's position
appears to be slight, considering that his salary
was so low. Most assistant trainers at lesser schools get
paid much more than Barbour was receiving from Fairfield.
But even if there is a replacement for Ev, nobody
could match the calibre of the good doctor himself.
Barbour's competence was absolutely unquestioned.
He was one of the few men who served as both
trainer and equipment manager at the same time. He
holds a degree from the Swedish lnst!itute in New York
and furthered his study at the Dr. Bilik Clinic. He is a
licensed trainer and masseur in New York and worked
at such renowned places as Artie McGovern's Gym in
New York City, Westchester Country Club and Williams
College in Massachusetts.
Just last year Ev was offered a job with the New
York KnickerbockCl'S of basketball. Although he
could have more than doubled his salary, he declined
because the travel would take him away from his wife
and four children.
Two summel'S ago Ev joined New York Giants
trainers John Ziegel and John Johnson in conducting
a clinic for the benefit of area student trainers. Every
aspect of a field in which he is nothing less than an
expert was covered.
Hown-er, Ey's reputatioa at Fair6eld .aa founded
on an UDCaDIly MMe of dedicatioll to the athletes themselvea
aDd his penonal relationships with them.
Probably the greatest tribute to Barbour's record
at Fairfield was his amazing success in keeping the
,'arsity athletes in shape. His countless professional
tape jobs and rub downs represented ·only a fraction
of his depth and experience. He gave equal attention
to all athletes of all sports and kept injuries down to a
bare minimum.
Especially outstanding is the fact that the basketball
team nenr suffered the loss of a single player for an~'
game dUI;ng Barbour's tenure with the exception of
former star Larry Raffelty, who had a chronic knee ailment.
Ev did an especially fine job with formel" hoop
star Mike Branch two yeal'S ago when he had a sedous
knee injury. He had also been superb with the baseball
team, keeping the pitchers' arms in shape during the
often unseasonable weather.
Perhaps Barbour'a keen pencmal relationship.
with the athletes was the greatest friDa. benefit of his
splendid character. Impartmg confidence, amuaing the
athletes with hi. superb knowledle of apotb, and the
psychological boost generated by his mere presence
were a natural product of his relexin&" peraonality_ His
candid quip. and timely aeue of humor aened to
shorten many bus rides and take tome of the ed.e off
pre-game teMeoeu.
In view of the hours spent by Barbour in his
duties, it is nothing short of amazing that he remained
as long as he did. His day ranged anywhere from ei~ht
in the morning to eleven at night, many times returning
from away soccer games and staying late after basketball
practice dUI;ng the fall season.
The story of Barbour's unseen dedication and conhibutions
to the Fairfield athletic program can hardly
be done full justice in this column. The fact is that he
is gone and his loss will be sadly realized with the
passage of lime and events. It was with much reluctance
that Athletic Director George Bisacca let Barbour
go, after making an unsuccessful plea to the Budget
Committee on Ev's behalf.
Needleu to .ay, Ev will be sorely miaaed by Bi·
sacca and his athletes. I pencmally would like to thank
Everett Barbour for his unael6.h contrihutiOll8 to Fairfield
and wish him the beat of luck at tlt.e uYun '0' Trim
Health !\tudio" in Westport, where he ia DOW employed,
and wherever else he may go. There will Dever be an·
other like him.
