He hopes in particular that
a larger number of students
will begin thinking as individuals
and letting themselves be
heard on campus.
When asked about the increase
in faculty enthusiasm
and involvement ~ince last semester,
Fr. McInnes said he
congratulated this enthusiasm
in this year's faculty orienta·
tlon, but that in his opinion It
was still rather minimal in actual
numbers, and hopefully
they too would increase.
In relation to the dormitory
council system, and implications
of "social" change regarding
liquor regulations and parietals,
Fr. McInnes said that he was
wholly in favor of the council
system.
He feels that regardless of
what changes are made, it will
be the responsibility of those
Individuals in charge to "set
their own rules high enough so
as not to interfere with the

Since Fairfield's founding in
1942, the university has existed
as an all-male institution on
the undergraduate level. The
"stag" image has been synono·
mous with the university over
the years.
However, starting in the academic
year 1970-71, Falrfield
University will open its doors
to female students.
Stag reporters recently talk·
ed with Rev. George A. Gallarelll,
S.J., new Dean of Admissions,
about the future of
co-education at Fairfield. Father
GallarelU has heen with
the University for five years;
three years as Director of Resident
Students, and two years
as director of the Campus Center.
He also served as a memo
ber of the Theology Depart·
ment.
Father Gallarelli related that
the Office of Admissions has
set a goal of one hundred
freshmen women and forty nursing
students. Also. any number
of transferring students who
apply, and meet the admission's
standards. will be accepted.

Financial :.uo\·e
Mr. Schimpf said that the
cutback in maid service was
basically a financial move. Additional
services are required
as a university grows and the
question is whether to adjust
existing services or raise student
fees. Student services
have to be balanced against
cost and budget. The services
provided at Fairfield were compared
with neighboring universities
and it was discovered that
"we were unique in providing
daily maid service."
Mr. Maloney mentioned that
last year, in a significant number
of cases (at times, almost
half of the boarding students),
maids were advised not to
enter the rooms or to return
at a later date. A number of
statements to this effect were
submitted to Mr. Bianchi, former
Director of Student Services.

Along with Fr. McInnes were
the Rev. Robert J. Starratt, S.J.,

Fr. McInnes stated that
FURST enabled the boys to "get
something that really makes
men free and that no one in
this country can take away from
you - your education."
Mr. Williams expressed his
pleasure with the maturing
process that so many of the
boys had realized while Mrs.
Johnson appealed to boys in all
the phases to "return to their
communities and be ambassa·
dors for education."
But perhaps the clearest insight
to what FURST is all
about was supplied by John
Ramos of Fairfield Prep, who,
speaking for the graduating
group, said, "we cannot leave

Teenage boys from the Greater Bridgeport area

Fairfield University Recreational Study Techniques

FURST saw its prime objective
realized after five years of
operation when boys in the fifth

end-of-course diplomas by the
Very Rev. William C. McInnes.
S.J., president of Fairfield University,
opening the door to college
scholarships for the 21
graduates.
College Scholarships
The camp, started in 1965
under the sponsorship of Fr.
McInnes, enabled inter _ city
youths ranging from ~wnth
graders to high school juniors
to participate in a program of
remedial academics, cultural
field trips and athletics - all
serving as preparation for the
attainment of college scholar·
ships.
Fairfield University guaranteed
full-scholarships to those
who completed the program
and met the university's entrance
requirements. Some boys
will enroll at Fairfield while
others seek admission to such
institutions as Brown, Columbia,

the institute in their faith, in
order to prepare them for the
reception of the Eucharist.
While teaching these boys, it
became apparent they were
seeking friendship and understanding.
When this became evi_
dent, one of the primary 0bjectives
of the program became
that of earning the trust and
friendship of theSC' boys. This
entails working Saturday mornings.

Social historians of the future may well be faced with the
dilemma of attempting to decide which of two unrelated events
more clearly reflected the sentiments and interests of the American
public during the swnmer of 1969. Was our society truly
moved by the vaguely surrealistic sight of two bloated, wadd'ing
figures hopping and bouncing across an eerily desolate landscape,
or was it more sharply stunned by the reports of a three-day mass
freak-out that occurred in mid-August In the unlikely hamlet of
Bethel, New York? The answer to this question will depend on
the historian's definition of the nebulous term "society." For in
fact, America is now possessed of two drastically different "societies,"
the one bearing almost no resemblance to the other In regard
to customs and morals. The members of both opposing camps recentiy
planned and staged large-scale rituals that were meant to
celebrate the glories or each's life-style and impress the uncommitted
or the openly hostile with the slieer magnitUde of each's event.
The carefully harnessed explosion that sent Armstrong, Aldrin
and Collins hurtling towards that bleak sphere that is our nearest
cosmic neighbor served as the opening volley for "their side" ''
their side" consisting of the contented, the comfortable, the 9 to
5 worker, the housewife, the commuter; in short, the wJlling
financiers of the technological rat-race. Perhaps as a gesture of
gratitude to those who had made trip possible, the astronaut from
Wapakoneta, Ohio, altered the time of his lunar walk to preempt
"Bonanza" and thus insure a reasonable bed-time hour for
the anxious, squirming millions below who gaped at their television
sets In mute amazement. The national media (which panders its
meager ware to the buyer on "their side") dutifully reacted by
loudly proclaiming the wonders of the latest (and greatest) Installment
in "The Great Spaee Epic." Those for whom this feat was
intended were duly awed. There were, however. others who, between
yawns, condemned the distorted order of our government's
priorities.
One month later "our side" fired back. Lacking the scientific
wizardry of a Werner Von Braun we were fo~ to rely on the
primordial power of brute, lumbering humanity. Just people.
Everywhere. The pilgrimage up Highway 17 was a unJversal precession
to Nirvana. It seemed the whole world (meaning all of
"us") had, in fact, decided to leave home this one weekend and
gather in a cow-less cow pasture in the Catskills. The relentless
energy flow generated by an endless succession of super-group!!
soothed, excited and wearied us as we sat hip-deep in a vast pool
of brown slime that was once a verdant meadow. Thls titan of a
fes'ival was an orgiastic g-arden of delights that seemed to have
been dropped intact from the sky squarely into the middle of nowhere.
The radical, the dope-dealer, the bum, the teeny-hopper
and the professional freak sat, crawled and staggered side-by-sidc
through 72 swirling hours. The only attractions were music, peace
and drugs. All three were available in abundance. Maybe our
presence in Bethel was really a sign of desperation over our inability
to engender any real changes. It may have been merely n
reaction to the "enemy's" recent theatrical display. Perhaps Bethel
occurred because we realize that "they" are stronger than we are
and that "they" don't especially like what we have been up to
lately and because we needed this cramped communal trip to
prove to one another that we are not alone and that our paranoia,
like our joy, is pluralistic.
THE STAG
for Administration and Faculty cases). The rest of the cases would
be adjudicated by the Student Court in a fair trial. To protect the
accused and the accuser, the Judicial Review Board would be an
appeals court. The Judicial Review Board by a majority vote of
its membership would decide whether or not it would accept a
particular appeal.
The above is a capsule summary of what the "new concept"
In STUDENT Government may be at Fairofield in a matter of
weeks - if things go as planned. The above procedures wlll undoubtedly
undergo an evolution before they reach perfection, but
basically we have worked everything out
It was nice - now back to reality.
REALITY: Many of us are still skeptical. After all, upon what
basis can we place our "trust" - especially after last spring. I
had passed from skeptlcism to cynicism, but on September 13-14 I
attended a meeting of the minds. From the events of that meeting
I would suspect that there has been a revolution In thought (the
best kind) over the summer among those who matter and those
who care about Fairfield. This revolution in thought has a great
potentiality for action - an action that we will see In a matter of
days and weeks - not months and years. Although my cynicism
is gone my skepticism isn't. I am, I think with the rest of the student
body, watching very carefully and waiting as the September
13-14 Resolutions go back to their respective sectors for acceptance
or rejection. Tonight they go before the Student Legislature, there
the Legislators will decide as representatives of the Student Body
to accept or reject the University Council Resolutions. If they
accept, I will sign them into law and we're off again. This time,
I expect, on a more rational plane of discussion.

"'Le$ U8 be Innovators, not imitators"
A
RESIDENCE RALLS COUNCILS: The classic argument
against STUDENT Government on campus was: ''You want to
make your own laws yet you want us (the Administration) to enforce
them. The Student Government program manages to get
around this little hang-up by the invention of the Residence Hall
Council. The Residence Hall Council is made up of the Student
Legislators of a particular Residence Hall. The entire body of
Legislators would make the laws of Student Conduct which would
be based on the ideal passed unanimously by the University Council;
"NO PERSON SHALL PERFORM ANY ACI'ION WHICH
INFRINGES UPON THE RIGHTS OF ANOTHER IN THE SETTING
OF FAIRFIELD UNIVERSITY AS AN ACADEMIC COMMUNITY."
The Residence Hall Council of a particular Residence
Hall would carry out the code in that Residence Hall. They would
be replacing the prefects (now Resident AdVisors) as the primary
agency for the implementation of the law. The Resident Advisors
would be just that - Advisors. This local government is an ideal
for which we have all been striving.
What came out of that meetin~ was a feeling of a cooperation
that is hard to describe. It seemed like evetj.·one was determined
to make the rational approach to problems a practical method of
solving them. The resolutions which came from that meeting far
transcended "booze and broads" (although appropriate attention
was given to these rather delicate issues - and I might say, to
the satisfaction of all the students present). These resolutions
reached down to the very foundations of the University.
In this column I wish to discuss just the social program
which was passed by the UniveI"Slty Council and was based upon
the Student Government program. This week I would like to
discuss STUDENT Government - by the students and for the
students - something Fairfield has yet to see. If and when the
University Social Resolutions are passed, the following would be
a reasonably accurate description of STUDENT Government _
Fairfield style;
THE STUDENT COURT: When a student infringes upon the
rights of another, the student infringed upon would fill out a Student
Court complaint form, which he would receive from, and
give back to his Student Government Representative. In the event
af a general disturbance which is bothersome to all, the Student
Government Representative would fill out a complaint form, or in
his absence the Resident Advisor. Once a week the Student Government
Representatives of a particular Residence Hall (the Residence
Hall Council) would get together with the Resident Advisors
of that Residence Hall to compile complaint forms and recommend
aanctlons. All cases with the recommended sanctions would be
referred to the Student Court. All cases which have suspension
()J' expulsion as the sanction would be referred to the Tri-ParUte
Judicial Review Board, since removing someone from the community
is very definitely a community affair. (This would also go
THE ELECTION: Sometime near the beginning of October
the Student Government Legislative Elections would take place.
When each student goes to vote, he will be asked If he is a commuter,
an off-campus boarder, or a resident student. If he is a
commuter, he would be asked from what class he is from. He
would thell be given a ballot upon which he would vote for the
candidates from his class. If off-campus boardlng student, he
would receive a ballot containing the names of the off-campus
boarding candidates. If he is a resident student, he would be
asked from what residence hall he is from. He would then be
given a ballot containing the names of the candidates from his
residence hall.
A year ago what began as an ideal held by a determined
group of Student Government Legislators and some writers for
the Stat; is now rapidly moving on its way toward fulfillment. The
Ideal was student sell-government In those areas which primarily
affected the student, and adequate representation in those decisions
Which affected the student's life. The blueprint for attaining the
above Ideal can be found in the resolutions which were passed
unanimously (except for one) by the TTl-partite University Council
on September 13-14. At that meeting, probably the most significant
In the recent history of the school, representatives were anxious,
but the students were more than that - they were skeptical, and
understandably so after last spring.

.Up Who Maid This Mess?
Over the summer the University fired all but a handful of' its
chambermaids. The reasoning behind the move is a little ambivalent.
and the move strikes us as a little capricious. Its consequences cQluld
even be disastrous.
Officially, the move was made for budgetary reasons, but college
maids are not paid notoriously high wages (indeed, the Holy Cl:'OSS
8DS is right now attempting to unionize the maids there), it is highly
unlikely ours were paid much above minimum, and an extremely
generous estimate would allow the University a saving in the $40,000
bracket. For a budget already in the tens of millions, that saving is
not terribly significant. Nor has there been any apparent improvement
in other services, like Maintenance and the Infirmary, to compensate.
The upshot is that room-and-board fees are being divelted
to erase the red ink of the Administration's financial ledgers. The
students are paying more than ever before, and getting less than Ewer
for it.
From there speculation can only grow darker, more hysterical.
Perhaps the students are being viewed as incurable slobs left to wallow
in their waste - but such activity is confined to a few, and the
many ought not to suffer for it. Perhaps the glaring incompetencl~ of
some of the departed maids served as motivation - but the proper
remedy is to seek replacements. Perhaps the Administration sees no
pressing need to pick up the beer cans it never wanted to see in the
first place.
What is being overlooked is the fact that our dormitories. while
by no means tenements, are laid out in about as sophisticated a
fashion as a high-security prison or an Air Force barracks and they
are certainly not about to prompt any member of the Class of 1973
to boast in letters to home about his "accommodations in the Fairfield
Hilton." Even when maid and janitorial service was daily. there were
occasions of accumulated dirt, uncleaned or flooding bathrooms, etc.
Our dorms have no built-in protection against epidemic which a larger
wastebasket can provide. They are densely populated and susceptible
to infectious filth - even rats - if they are not regularly cleaned.
The health and welfare of the students ought to come before any
budget. Let us hope it does not take a catastrophe to drive that point
home to the people who ought to reverse this seemingly irrevocable
decision.

SOCIAL LIFE
The following resolutions concerning
social life in the Fairfield University
Community were passed unanimousl;)(, by
the tri·partite University Council at a
:meeting held Sunday, September 14:
1. Fairfield University as an academic
community presumes on the part of
each Community member a respect
for the rights and privileges of others

2. A member of the Fairfield University
Community shall be subject to its
shared norms of social responsibility
while on the premises of the University
or while engaged in an activity

cils as follows:
a. The Residence Hall Council of a
particular Residence Hall shall
consist of the Student Government
Representatives of that partkular

dent Advisors, shall be the primary
agency for the implementation of
the Student Code of Conduct.
Co The Residence Hall Council shall
meet at least once a week with the
Resident Advis:lrs of their J~s:dence
Hall. The Residence Hall
Council with the advice of the J:tesident
Advisors shall compile the
complalnt forms of the previous
week and recommend sanctions.
d All cases shall be adjudicated by
the Student Court except where the
Student Code specifics otherwise
or when the Residence Hall Coun·
eil recommends suspension 01' expulsion.
In such a situation, the
case shall be adjudicated by a .Judicial
Review Board.
e. The Student Court shall be em.
powered to recommend suspension
or expulsion, In which case thE~ situation
would be referred to a ,Judicial
Review Board.
4. The University Council endorses parietal
hours in the Residence Hains as
follows:
a Maximum parietal hours for a par·
ticular Residence Hall shall be determined
by a poll taken by the
members of the Residence Hall
Council during the first full week
after the beginning of the fall semester.

September 24, Iq6q THE STAG Page Seven
Chip Mount took a perfect pass and broke away
from his defenders. Expertly his feet dribbled the ball
down the soccer field. Suddenly a veteran opponent
moved laterally across the field to challenge Mount. It
was then that Mount deftly bounced the ball off his
head, leaving still another foe behind. Now the freckled
·faced, blonde Mount was ready to challenge the
goalie on this gray afternoon. He kicked the ball
straight and hard, but right into the goalie's gut. His
effort was wasted.
At mid-field, however, James Kuhlman's eyes
glistened as he watched the play unfold. Although
Mount was dejected, Coach Kuhlman liked what he
saw, Mount is only a freshman and this year the
NCAA permits freshmen to play varsity ball.
"We don't know how good our opponents' freshmen
are," Kuhlman explained after a hard practice
last Friday. "We have four freshmen in our starting
line-up this year. So it should help us." The four newcomers
to Fairfield that have Kuhlman beaming and
upperclassmen envious are Dan Lapaco, Joe Good·
house, Tony Celine, and 24·year-old Burke Mandable,
an air force veteran.
Star Performers Return
In addition to this strong corp of freshmen, the
nucleus of last year's squad is back again this autumn.
Kuhlman has back his reliable goalie, Garv Dayon, and
prolific scorers Jack Monahan and Dan Wilcox. It was
this trio of juniors that helped lead the soccer combine
to its first winning season last fall. They were 7-6 as
Dayon posted three shutouts. Senior co-captains Buzz
Kowaluk and Don McInerny bolster the dtfense. On
paper. Fairfield is loaded.
This Saturday the Stags meet Fordham at Rose
Hill in the openin~ game. Last year Kuhlman set a
winning season for his goal. This year Kuhlman wants
~o play in the NAIA small college tournament, Hence it
IS apparent that soccer is a rapidly improving sport here
at Fairfield. The root of success stems from Kuhlman.
Not only is he an exceptional player and instructor, but
he maintains great rapport with his players.
As the handsome coach walked to the locker room
after practice he took off his sweaty tee-shirt, While
~uzzy Kowaluk swatted playfully at his coach's head
In an attempt to kill a bug, several players ribbed their
leader about the love beads around his neck. James
Kuhlman is a young man in his early thirties, In a very
real sense he is "one of the guys" who is more of a
player-coach than a head coach. The Stag booters
want terribly to reward him with a post-season tourney
berth and this goal is very realistic.

This year's cross country

O'Donohue, the only veteran

By BILL WARNKEN
When the Fairfield Stags
open their Club Football season
on Saturday against the
nation's number one club football
squad, the Fordham Rams,
senior linebacker and co_captain
John Moriarty will be faced
with the task of anchoring a
defcnse that has lost such outstanding
linebackers as Bill
Grannta and .John Langan,
both class of '69.
If that's enough to make II
skeptic of the average fan, it
has only redoubled John's desire.
He renects the positive
thinking that seems to penneate
this "new-look" team when
he comments: "1 have the utmost
confidence in the coaching
staff this year and the frosh
have picked. up much of the
slack."
Moriarty will enter his fourth
year, having been with the
team during its inaugural season
in 1966. Playing through
that tough initial campaign as
well as the glory days of the
Brian Burke - led. squad of
1967 and the lean 1-6 season of
a year ago, John is detennined.
to go out a winner and feels
that the new coaching stat!
will help turn the trick.
The dedication shown by
head coach, Lawrence O'Toole
and assistant T. Carter ha~ reo
vitalized the veterans on the
squad, and provided the Ideal
atmosphere for the club's neophytes.
"Dynamite" Spirited
Moriarty described the coaches
and the spirit they've imparted
as "dynamite." The two
weeks of intensive practice attest
to that fact. The squad
has gone through double-session
workouts since sept. 3rd. On
Saturday's, one three-hour session
replaced the double-sessi"
n, but just to avoid any complacency
coach O'Toole allowed
his chargers to run 15 laps in
full gear at intervals during
th~>se Saturday workouts.
At 5-10, 185 pounds, MorIarty
fits the bill for a fleet
corner linebacker. Playing outside
in the 5-3 "monster" defense
John is responsible for
pass coverage in the fiats and
turning sweeps inside. This is
a position demanding a sure
tackle and that John is. But it
also demands a mental quickness,
namely the knack to
read plays. Coach Garter, the
defensive mentor has been an
invaluable aid in this area.
Carter comes to his job with
a wealth of knowledge, having
coached defense at Yale for
16 years. Both men sincerely
believe that they have improved
the defense, which is
no mean accomplishment since
last year's unit was rated
tenth in the nation.
There is never room for
overconfidence among athletes
and that maxim is especially
applicable to the Stag eleven,
as no less than six of their
eight opponents are among the
nation's top twenty club football
teams.
Looking towards Saturday's
encounter with the Rams, Moriarty
was amused to read a
comment by the Fordham
coach complaining about a
weak interior line: "He has
forty-one returning lettt:nnen
and complains about a depleted
interior line. and then goes out

this year's strongest point. With

Fairfield has an offense which

Marten's ankle should be okay
by the middle of this week, and
Van Muller's hip bruise should

the Stags should be strengthened
by the return of Tom Hildebrand.
The only Question is the

could use Larry to complement
the great line play the Stags
have shown so far, especially
In the scrimmage against Norwalk.

FairfieldFootballClub
Psyched For An Upset
By GARY IUARZOLIA
With less than a week remaining
before Fairfield's home
opener against Fordham, the
Football Club has been drilling
exceptionally hard in its bid for
an upset win. Fresh off last
Thursday's scrimmage against
Norwalk Community College
and last night's scrimmage with
the Yale fresh, the Stags a~
pear to be ready for the mighty
Rams.
At Brien McMahon field in
Norwalk last Thursday, Fairfield
encounte~ a squad from
the community college there.
Although the final outcome had
the Stags down 1-0, the results
were very encouraging. Not
only did FU outgaln Norwalk
in rushing yardage by an 180-47
margin, but quarterback Frank
Schultz also nipped his counterpart
from Norwalk in passing
yardage (52-49).
Fumbles Costly
The reason why the Stags d!d
not score was the fact that they
fumbled five times, losing the
ball twice. These miscues broke
the momentum on two excellent
scoring drives, which bQth Urnes
stalled at the one yard line.
Norwalk scored early In the
scrimmage, but were completely
held at bay for the rest of
the entire afternoon, as the
O'Toolemen marched up and
down the fteld as they pleased.
An injury to safetyman Billy
"The Kid" Martens (a slight
ankle sprain) forced a substitute
to be rushed into the game very
early, and Norwalk scored on
the very next play on a long
pass. But that was the swn
total of Norwalk's ofI'ense for
the day.
Coach Larry O'Toole was
very encouraged and pleased
with the results. There was
some fine running by Chao Choo
Harbor and Ken Hojonowskl.
Also, halfback Van Muller ran
for 46 yards on a Quick opener
up the middle where the Stag
line opened a huge hole and the
ends threw some key downfl.eld
blocks.
Schuln Protected
Besides the running, the offensive
line gave QB Schultz
maximum protection all afternoon.
The only thing which
needs some Improvement Is the
timing on some offensive plays,
which was the reason for those
costly fumbles. Otherwise, the
Stags appear to be set offensive..
ly and should be able to score
Quite frequently.
On defense, coach O'Toole
was also V(!ry pleased. The d(!lense
is a new one and relatively
inexperienced. There are
some good veteran players,
though, and If they can work
hard this week with the Inex·
perlenced frosh, who have real·
ly been hitting, the Stags could
and should develop into a first
rate defensive unit. Fairfield's
defense was ranked tenth nationally
lasl year, and if this
year's squad can repeat that distinction,
the Stags will do ex-
