Letters To The Editor
Secondly, we might observe that these
leaders learned form the ''peace fast"
that group discussion Is an evil to be
avoided if one wants a unWed opinion.
After presenting their two statements
on the petition, they have said In this
week's STAG that, .. 'Because of the
actions of the past year whlch were
heavily anti-government in tone c0n­cerning
Vietnam, I feel that this neces­sitated
a petition of thls kind' '!bey
all agreed that these 'actions' included
Cook's and Sorokin's lecturea (IQ tbi8
campus and the peace f8ll1." It aeems
that no consideration was given to those
students OIl c&mpUll who 8leDed the
petition and who have an intellectual
desire to investigate both sides of a
problem, I would not ·have liked to sign
a petition and have somoone add his
personal vIews to it afterwards.
Finally, I'd like to mention a recent
article in ''Whenever Poulble" wtdch
compared this year'!! petition and last
year's. They stated, "If their petitions
are relatively accurate meters for
gauging campus oplnton on tlle laue,
then the govenunent lost over 75 % of
its support at Falrfleld" I must DOte that
last year the petition was eirculated
room to room and a drop-off in slanen
was to be expected. I would lind this
large percentage a significant number
indeed.
Hopefully, Mr. Kister and his fo).
lowers will not force their views on aIl7
Fairfield students In this manner. Per­haps
they should consider, not 90 much
what .they say on a controversial issue,
but when they say It.
Sincerely,

To the Editor:
Concerning the recent "Petition for
War" I would like to make several
points. First, in the Feb. 15tll edition
of the STAG, Mr. Ralph KIster was
quoted as saying, "To offsct last week's
Peace Fast, we have drawn up a petition
for those who believe in the necess1ty
o( the Vi~tnam War." On the basla of
this statement, why would the leaders
of the petition say in this week's STAG
that "their main point was that the
petition was not an effort to protest the
rcccnt 'peace fast Y' "

Now is the time to act, to bring our
bombing to a halt, and. to bring pressure
to the concerned nations and their good
offices by testing theIr convictions that
the CCtlsation of United States bombing
of the North Is the necessary act oC
"good faith" to precede negotiations.
Clearly the risks of America's cessa­tion
of bombing are great, yet more
clearly, the possibUities of peace rest in
a policy of cessation rather than con­tinuation.
To the Editor;
I cannot let thc Stac editorial about
the Youth Interracial Council pass with.
out comment. First, for the sake of
the school I hope that the attitude reo­fleeted
In the editorial does not represent
a consensu!! of student thinking at Fair­lield.
It is inconceivable that in 1967 any
one could seriously consider the civil
rights movement a "controversial mat·
ter" in the sense that the constitution­ality
and morality of our Negro citizens'
demand for equality is still in question.
In the name of reason, would you tell us
what is "controversial" and "delicate"
about the aims of the Youth Interracial
Council, whIch are "to aid in bringing
social justice and welfare through tutor­ing,
panel discussions, and folk-slnging
groups?"
You do grave injury to your school
in such an editorial, for one gets the
strong impressiOn that Fairfield Is at
best on the periphery of the clvU rights
movement, quibbling about issues that
were long ago resolved in the courts and.
the halls of Congress. But I know there
are many at Fainfield committed whole­heartedly
to interracial work, and their
motivation is Instinctively Chrl9tlan.

Paul J, NacY

Misrepresentation
As a result of bombing, we have
weakened the North's military effort in
the ~outh and weakened theIr insistence
on war to such a degr<!f! that Hanoi now
ca lis for an end to the bombing as a
preliminary move towards negotiations.
England's Wilson advocates such an end,
Rus:o:ia's Kosygin demands It. And surely
an fOnd it must be, for the necessity oC
a nation to "save face" wlll not allow
Hanoi to respond to an "uIUmatum" or
a "pause,"

evaluation, thus effecting better
programming in the students' in­terest.
The S TAG congratulates
WVOFfor doing the job that they
have done with limited funds
and equipment, We realize that
they have not as yet achieved
Utopia, but their recent strides
al·e very encouraging.
Lauded
It is true that a few students
did attempt dialogue and discus­sion,
but such a small number
cannot speak for a majority of
the community. Nor can these
dialogues compare with large
scale debates, A large, moderated
discussion can eliminate the prej·
udices, misinterpretations, and
enol', which so easily infest its
small, informal counterparts, and
can thus be truly intellectual.
We recommend that organiza·
tions such as the Young Demo­Cr:
lts, the Young Republicans, the
International Relations Club, the
Y. 1. C., and the A, A. U. P. take
the initiative by sponsoring and
moderating formal, open debates.
The questions are of prime im­portance
to our community; they
should not be ignored.
To the EdItor;
We continue our bombing of North
Vietnam, but we have yet to reap our
reward'> from that policy.
The purpose of bombing can no longer
be viewed as a device to beat Hanoi Into
submission; secretary of State Rusk has
affirmed this. But our bombing can serve
as a device for bringing the war to the
table and to this end our bombing polley
should be directed - directed to a halt.

keeps them here at Fairfield? The pur­pose
of this school Is to lcarn to think
and live as a Christian gentleman; how­ever,
for those so inclined, It would be
better for us and for them to betake
themselves to another school where they
are guaranteed a chance to learn and
to live as "real" men who are taught
to maim and kill.
From my elq)erience with them I find
that they are gullible enough to be in­doctrinated
into believing In the neces­sity
of the chauvinistic myth of the
Holy-War-in-Defense-of-Amerlca-Against
-Communism. They have yet to learn
that they are being exploited by op­portunists
who are unconcerned with
the human sutTering they cause In Viet­nam
and the U.S.; opportunists who
would not think oC "embarasslng the
U.S. position in Vietnam," but who do
not scruple over engaging the US. in
an aggressive war, killing innocent

To the Editor:
At last count, I understand the signers
of a petition for war were still steadily
expanding their number. One would
think, after a flrst .':"lance at their con­stantly
spreading infection of war-mon­gering,
that the very activity itself is
contrary to their usual state of apathy.
But looking more closely, we see that
their apathy stili has not been shaken
off. After all, just how much etrort does
it take to put a name to a piece of
paper? I venture to say that the ma­jority
of them do not have enough
conviction to man1!est It In any way
but a name on a scrap of paper. If they
do have this conviction, what Is 11 that

STAG ... Controversy
if the number of letters pub­lished
in recent issues can be any
critelia, the STAG appears to
have evoked large scale contro­versy
by its editorials and col­umns.
This would appear promis­ing,
but a closel' view of the
matter is disheartening.
The majority of the letters dis­agreed
with our editorial views
and those of our columnists, but
many of these letters credited the
STAG with opening the door to
discussion. It is discouraging to
find that no discussion ensued.
Such important topics as civil
lights, war and peace produced
nothing more than a transient
outcry of an alarmingly small per­centage
of our faculty and stu·
dents. Intellectual debate on our
campus was not affected.

Father McCrea stated that
there was now a "revival of

The first of these was the

stupidity of anybody in uni­form,
even the American oc­cupation
forces which appear
late in the film.
In comparing the Czechoslo­vakian
"The Shop On Main
Street" to "The 25th Hour", it
is easy to see the chief wcakness
of the latter film. "The Shop
On Main Street" is a deeper
psychological study with much
more emotional and intellectual
force. Its Aryan hero first trIes
to ignore the black side of racial
prejudice: but at length, when
they start dragging olY the Jews,
he must face up to its lITatlon·
allty. In the end he finds no
escape from the emotional and
mental terror except suicide.

His wife, separated from him
all this time, has gone through
a similarly exasperating pro­cess,
although her story Is
much less developed before the

husband and wife meet after
ten years. They can only stare
at each other without touching.
A newsman comes to take pic­tures
and demands that they

"CONCERNING THE EMBRYO'S RIGHT TO LIFE"
Lately there has been controversy over the moves to liberalize
thc New York abortion law. Every state today has a law which
permits abortion to save thE' mother's life. This new law, the
Brumenthal Bill, would allow abortion when there is a risk to a
mother's physical or mental health, or danger of a birth of a
physically or mentally defective infant, or conception following
rape or incest, or I>regnancy of an unwed female under the age
of 15.
When and if this new bill is passed, the goal oC the reformers
is the ultimate leaving of abortion up to the parties exclusively
concerned: "For the state to force a woman to bear a child against
her will is ridiculous," Mr. Lader (pro-abortionist, Time Magazine.
Ap. 25, '65).
The Catholic Church holds that human life as a matter of
practical policy, must be rcgarded to begin with conception and
is sacred and therefol'C, beyond the judgement of man to ex­tinguish.
I firmly believe that the Church is correct concernin~
this matter and that is is necessary for all of us to sincerely con­sider
such decisions as surround the abortion Issue; for soon we
shall be making such decisions.
Society depends upon us as much as our fathers. The world
we want for ourselves and our children, we must make. To do
this wc must keep what is good from the past and accept and
develop what shall be good for the future. A liberalization of thc
present abortion law would not be a benefit Cor our futurc.
For, when looking into the liberalization of the abortion law
and the rcfomlers who push for it, wc find a philosophy which
proposes that man should be free to intervene in the reproductive
process and put a stop to it at any stagc - a philosophy which
must consider the embryo to be no higher than a biological blob.
For, although "Science hasn't specified when the fetus be­comes
a person" (Mr. Lader), the hwnan life for practical pur­poses
begins with conception. And a'bortion. 'besides the self­defense
to savc the mother's life, is murder of the human llfe of
the embryo or the fetus.
Concerning their designs, the reformers realize that their
major obstacle in making their evaluation of embryonic liCe the
basis of our law is religion, and, as It stands, the Catholic religion
In particular. Their attack begins, therefore, "The abortion laws
are a heritage of ecclesiastical history, based on religious dogma
rejected by most of the populatlon . the real sin is the law
which demands an unwanted child." (Mr. Lader).
But when the values of human life are at stake _ no matter
in what stage, law must be judged by other criteria than Its mere
elfectiveness in preventing the Ibirth of an unwanted child. Law is
the voice of society's conscience, and every system of law should
therefore presuppose moral belief. So also here.
Human life is too sacred for society to encourage disrespect
for its womb in order to have abortions other than therapeutic
made legal. And society is too sacred to be endangered by the
loosening oC its con<>eicnce through the liberalization of its present
abortion law.
We must realize thc responsibility which the future holds and
be rcady to develop and protect thc conscience of our society. Wc
must further such social reforms as integration, and we must
protect the value of human liCe in any stage. The world we want.
we must make.

Thc subject of "The 25th
Hour" is a simple Rumanian
farmer, Johann Moritz, who
between 1939 and 1949, is tossed
about by the machinations of
the war and war's aftermath.
An Aryan, he is first consigned
to a Jewish labor camp by a
local police chief who is jealous
of his wife. He escapes to be
hauled 01I as a Hungarian to
work in a factory in Germany.
A German officer then decides
that Moritz is one of the last
remaining members of an ob­scure
tribe of Aryans, and he
is made an SS guard. He be­comes
a prisoner of the Ameri­cans
whcn Germany falls, and
is finally put on the dock at
Nuremberg as a war criminal

publications had featured him

.",."""",."",.""" ..... March I, 1967
""",.,.".""."",
For some absolutely abstrUSe reasons to me, a number of my
most dear and closest rriends and enemies bave suggested that I
give my most wonderfully perceptive and acute critical mind a
permanent vacation. Whereupon, they presented me with a full
expense paid, one way plane ticket back to the refreshing beaches
of the beautiful Sahara (they couldn't be conventional, Melvin,
and to the beaches of Miami send me back?). Along with this, I
was endowed with a wounded World War n parachute and a
magnlflcentl)' wrapped Boy Scout water canteen with a slow leak
and a broken shoulder strap. After discreet deliberation, there
sUlI remained in my mind the slinky suspicion that these gifts
might not have been offered in the best interest of my well-being
(upon stating this decision, however, my benefactors severely
criticized me for thinking that their motives were anything but
altruistic).
Nevertheless, in an attempt to please my benevolent admirers,
I have reluctantly decided to infUet paralysis on that discerning,
nippy critical side of me and to try my hand at humor. Of course,
I had no trouble getting my hand to try this literary device but
my typewriter (which I now affectionately refer to as "Ara Ar­rogant")
staged a three day fast in opposition to the whole Idea.
I really can't blame it, though, for not wanting to type humor. I
suppose that It's just a biting, caustic, taut, dirty, mean, old type­writer
by nature. However, I finally got It "keyed" up on the Idea
and it agreed on a "one COIUnUl trial basis:' Consequently, the
humor expressed b)' Ara in this column ls his own and In no way
reflects the opinions of the typist.
I just happened to be reading through the Saint Patrick's
Cathooral Bulletin (everybody's doing It these days, you know)
and I couldn't prevent my admittedly weird sense of humor from
ce:r,g entertained at a number of Items that presented themselves
In an amusing light. The layout of the bulletin consists of twenty
four pages, eleven of which contain seventeen advertisements. I
am not saying that there is anything really wrong with this. How­ever,
what did come to my mind as I was bounced from spiritual
words to advertisements was the anger of Christ upon finding the
moneylenders in the temple.
What ls amusing about these advertisements, though, is not
that they arc in the bulletin, as I say, but where they are situated
and how they are worded For example, one ad reads, "May you
all be In heaven five minutes before the devil knows you're dead."
This is an advertisement for "Charley O's" restaurant. It goes on
to stale, "Wide open Sunday for :My Merciful Brunch:' The last
"'ords Charley O's leaves us with are the tempting ones, "Solkl
drink and good food That's my theory."
There is another advertisement that simply states, "John and
Thomas Hairdressers:' According to the rest of the humorously
worded ads in the bulletin, it doesnt' seem as though poor John
and Tom are going to get too much business from their humbly
worded public notice. No imagination! Perhaps if it was worded
something similar to, "Ladies, come In at 9 and be out in time for
Benediction," then business might really pick up.
Some other Items of interest are found under the column
headlined, "Events of the Month." It appears that on the twelfth
of Fehruary there was a Mass for the Catholics of the Brewing
Industry. Tt is rumored that His Eminence Francis Cardinal Spell.
man was quite impressed by the attendance of aU those former

or another) by the Brewing Industry In the greater New York
area. Well, it the Siag Alumni couldn't kick the old habit of

Andy Warhol's ''The Chelsea
Girls" is a very powerful mo­tion
picture. It is an "under·
ground" movie (made at a
minimal cost, with non-profes­sional
actors). In the course of
four hours, various rooms in the
Chelsea Hotel are shown on a
split screen, so that two rooms
arc shown at once. The dialogue
follows one of the rooms for a
time, then goes to another.
About eight rooms are shown in
all and though what goes on in
each room is different from
every other, in each room there
persists one constant charac­teristic
- the total absence of
any true love relationships. In
the place of love an! many per­versions.
And)' Warhol has
shown us the multiple perver­sions
in our lives in a most
terrifying manner.
The first scene is of a beauti­ful
blonde, her husband, and
their son. There is love In the
family ties here, but it is com­pletely
overshadowed to the
point of mockery by the wo­man'~
continual looking In a
mlror and trimming her bangs
for about half an hour. Her
nardssim renders her Incapable
of partaking In any true lo"e
relationship.
ConfCMJon
The next scene may be the
most powerful In the movie. In
it a )'oung girl "goes to confes­sion"
to a man who was once in
the seminary. The "priest"
eventually ~ Into a 8t of
rage and slaps the girl feroci­ously
wheD she begins to talk
about God. Religion, with Its
belief in an all.loving beinr. has
no meaningful part in these
persons' lives. The girls comes
to the "priest" because she say"
she is in love with a Catholic.
As the scene ends, the girl Is
giving the "pl'iest" a shampoo
using n bottle of beer - a
most secular baptism in a cubi­cle
of hell.
In other rooms we see amphe­tamine

To the Editor:
After having read Rev. Richard R0us­seau's
letter in the February 23rd issue
of the STAG calling on us for a rea­soned
debate of Vietnam without "name-­calling
and motive-questioning," I hap­pened
upon Mr. Den:m't article. My first
reaction to the colwnn was puzzlement.
I could not understand Mr. Deren's pur.
pose in writing it.
My guesses were either that:
1. He is using the STAG to woo Pearl
Buck fans; or,
2. He is planning to be a script-writer
for a new afternoon drama series
called, "As Hanoi Burns"; or,
lastly,
3. He is serious.
While not follOWing the method of
Cartesian certainty, (for who could ex­tract
a "clear and distinct idea" from
such an emotion-packed portrait?) I
concluded, even more perplexed, that
my third guess was the most probably
correct.
After reading this column and a pre·
vious one of his which attacked (or,
should I say, slandered) President John­son
on personal grounds, I can only say
that it is most unfortunate that Mr.
Deren lends to interpret world affairs
in an emotional and personal context.
I say it Is most unfortunate because
this Is a university, and STAG is the
voIce of the university students. A uni­versity
should and must be a place for
"reasonable discussion" and not a plat­fonn

To the Editor:
I think l\1r. Deren's article (Unfin­ished
Business, STAG, 2-23-67) is a UU1y
beautiCUl piece that is at once a poem
and a prayer. Poetically it weeps at the
death of Peace and Love with each
death of the war. Prayerfully it begs
God and Mankind, '''This is happening
now; please let it stop!"
It is sad that we can anticipate that
many will give only a superficial reading
to the article, and so will seriously mis­understand
it. The piece does not favor
any faction in the political question of
whether any faction is justified in taking
up arms. It condemns the war as a
whole (cf. Vatican II Constitution on the
Church tn the Modem Wortd, Part II,
ch. V) and prays for peace. XTin and
Nyam (read "Christ and Man" Q!' "Lovel'

those who may need It that humanity
docs not stop at th~ seventeenth parallel.

more erudite manner. While this may be
true of some minor points of grammar
and syntax, it would be very easy to
destroy the simple beauty and univer­sality
of the piece b)' literary stylizing.
The emotion that the article evokes (In
those who will allow themselves to be
moved) is, I think. the appropriate emo­tional
response to the thought that
people are being brutally killed In a war
that shouldn'l be happening.

about the "inexcusable amount of

of Regis Hall can take strong exception

the fact that it is an all male institution.
The trend is definitely away from this

such as the Ivy League schools arc not
integrating only because the other
schools are doing it.
Fairfield draws fro.;n all over the na­tion.
especially the Mid-West, because
it is a male Jesuit institution. Without
this distinguished trait, Fairfleld will
fall into the rest of the pack of colleges

To the Editor:
Following the basketball game on
February 15, in New York, due to un­forseen
circumstances, I was unable to
return to the campus at a reasonable
hour. In order to notiry the prefects of
the situation, I dialed the switchboard
number. After several futile attempts
at this, [ had the operator check for
a night or emergency number, only to
discover that none was listed. With
great reluctance, I finally had to dis­turb
a fellow student, at 2:00 a.m., in
order that he might noury m)' pre­fects
of my circumstanCC!.
Although I was not faced with an
cmergency situation, 1f OM should
happen to arise, and SOmeone had to
contact a student, [ should like to know
To the Editor:
or all the articles and colwnns whi<:h
appeared In the February 15th issue of
the Stag, th(! most nauseating one was
the editorial concerning the Youth Inter­racial
Council. The abns and activities of
this worthwhile group were distorted
and misr'epresented. The entire editorial
was based on the false premise that the
Council voiced a particular political view
which was not representative of a "total
consensus" (whatever tbat is) of Fair­field
students.
The Youth Interracial Council does
nol put (orth a particular political view­point.
The group Is composed of many
individuals who are united in purpose
but whose views rencct all shades of
opinion. The Council has made a con­tinuous
ctrOTt to insure that all views
are represented and the liveliness of Its
discussions attest to the success of this
endeavor.
The editorial contained an underlying
hypocrisy which was mirrored in the
author's contention that ''we do not
question what they stand (or" bUl the

controvcrsial matter like civil rights.
Such a statement even contradicts one
of the tenets of this University's in­adequate
and obsolete Credo which
states: "We arc vigorously opposed to
all forms of 'racism' - perseeution or
intolcrance because of ruce." Docs not
Y. J. C, through its tutoring, panel dis­cussions,
and singing groups, promote
this ideal? How can a two hour tutoring
session possibly be an espousal of a par­ticular
political view!

THE BEST IN LAUNDERING
WE FOLD 'EM TOOl
The Gloriow Quest
It sulks just behind the blaring sight of the Met·
ropolis. In back of the blinding lights of two-bit novelty
shops, with a dim marquee that barely protrudes onto
8th Avenue, Madison Square Garden is a dump, a
murky arcna, breathing its last gulps of polluted air.
But it is, in its sinister way, the epitome of big time
sport.
It was nice seeing FAIRFIELD vs, ST. BONA
written on the face of the old place, there for anyone
to see. The fans had traveled a long road to get here;
from Buffalo to Rhode Island, from Worcester to Phila­d~
lphia, following the Stags, searching for the big
Will; big enough to shake some ignorant wliters and
selection committees off their infallible thrones. And
they knew that light here, in the Garden, was the
single place where, despite any previous mistakes a
team could win praise that would mean something
which would spread farther than New England, and
last longer than their next game.
That night, as against St. Pete's and Rider, in
Rutherford and Providence, while the team struggled
to mount an offense and reeled from a scorching Flial'
attack, came the same plaintive wish for a defense a
zone or a press. Surplisingly the press eventually ca:ne
and very nearly the victory. But not before I overheard
a couple of New Yorkers, afiicionados who dropped in
for the night, and whose o.pinion was going to be so
important, say of the Stags, "This team stinks."
It wasn't the loss that hurt so much. Heck, any
team can beat any other one. It's been happening all
season. Nor was it the failure of that enormous final
effort that fell so barely short. It was the fact that
something was missing, other than talent or guts, some­thing
which could provoke such a remark, which could
enable the contest to go unnoticed in Sports Illustrated's
Basketball Week, and which could allow the Stags to
slip out of New York still searching fOl' the big win in
the Bigtime.
After the game, too disquiet to sit through another
contest, the fans left, filtered into snack bars and, more
often, into bars, or wandered down Broadway. There
you could see the blight red jackets of Stags making
their way among theater crowds that were loitering on
the street during intermission. ]n a short time part of
that crowd would be fans visiting the big city for the
N.I.T. One Stag ran into a group of guys among which
there were members of his basketball team.
"Are you from Fairfield 1" a player asked him.
"Yea."
"Well, Fairfield stinks," the player said.
In that meeting lay, perhaps, an inkling to wh;y
the Stags kaleidoscoped through this tour and de~
fracted their game into a display of individualism.
There will be more crucial games next year,
against the most bitter of rivals and against teams that
dwalf present ad\'el'saJies. All the potentialities are
there and the illusive tournaments ride close on the
heels of a bigtime schedule. In time the Stags will gen~
crate a spirit that demands attention. Hopefully most
of us will make use of the opportunity and foster it.
Meanwhile we will tag along waiting for that
magic moment when, with all college basketball watch­ing,

With six minutes remaining in
the game, Stag Ken Hojnowski

margin to 87~81 on the fine
shooting of Mike Maniscalo and
