Due to diUiculties in
scheduling convenient meetings.
the attempted meetings have
been unproductive. The initial
tasks of filling board vacancies
and re-evaluating the editorial
production procedure remain
unresolved.
According to Grace. a real
"difficulty in finding people
willing to work ,. complicates the
replacement process for the self­perpetuating
board.

"Experiment in
Iripanitism"
Described by Mr. Ryan as a
"working experiment in
tripartitism." the board
provides a "balanced and broad
spectrum to the editorials (If

establishment last year. the
board functioned by weekly

One of the major projects in
the making is one which Pat c0­authored
with a student from
Central Connecticut State
College. and which is pending
approval of the governor. It
involves sending letters to the
presidents of the universities and
student bodies in Connecticut
requesting that they jointly
submit the names of a certain
number of individuals.
depending on the population of
the university. who best
represent the politK=al leanings
of that institution.
These students would meet
with Governor Meskill every two
weeks and be presented with the
problems he currently is facing
and the probable action which he
will lake.
The student delegates would
be asked for their opinions on the
solution or for alternative
solutions which would be
considered.
Stuck.t View
Through these biweekly
meetings, the delegates would be
exposed to the internal
operations of the governor and
hopefully understand the
decision making process of the
state government.
The delegates would in turn
serve as a pipeline to the
universities and filter the
information back to their peers.
Sullivan feels this too could in
effect bridge the communication
gap between the government and
the youth of Connecticut.
If this program is approved,
Pat has hopes of extending the
student delegates representation
to the high school level as well.

Explaining the absence of the

seven issues of the UDiversity

organit.ational difficulties of the
editorial board as the causative
factors.
In September. Grace assumed

Pat commented that he
enjoyes speaking at high schools
because "the students are easily
sparked into involvement in
politics."
When asked how he became
involved in Republicanism. Pat
replied. "I've always been a
Republican. I liked Nixon in 1960.
In high school. I worked on
campaigns and elections."
Pal feels there is a lack of
communication in the state and
this is Why lhe Republican party
has a poor image.

Patrick Sullivan, a senior
sociology major at Fairfield,
finds the time to fulfill these
functions. In addition. Pal was
one of four students chosen to be
interns for ten weeks of the
summer at the state Republican

Pat says that the purpose of
the internship was to "break in"
four seniors on all phases of
campaign work.
The applicants for the position
were required to write a letter to
the state chairman of the party.
The criteria for choosing among
the applicants was this letter as
well as a personal interview.

then rebutted Mr.
Petry stating that the
President's letter had dealt with
adequate cause for the
termination of tenure. In
addition to this he stated that
there was a considerable amount
of ambiguity in the AAUP laws.
Furthennore he warned the
faculty against acting like a
court of judgment which they
had no right to do. He then
demanded that they not deal
with the case in particular but
rather the interpretation of
adequate cause.
Arthur Anderson. department
of sociology. emphasized that
during the summer under oath in
the Supreme Court President
Mcinnes testified that there
were no religious distinctions
made for any department and
that there was no preferential
treatment for any faculty
members: the (lnly standard was
intellectual integrity.
Hugh Humphrey. department

up saying that President
Mcinnes had in fact passed
judgment on Dr. Caffrey through
revoking his tenure; due process
had been violated.
Accusatioa UallDoWD
Leo O'Connor of the English
department charged that the
whole problem was that the

He concluded his remarks by
demanding that the President
cease his present course of
action for Ole university's sake.
Leo Fay department of

President Mcinnes was allowed
to do this it could lead to the
unending harassment of the
faculty.
Mr. Petry then claimed that II

Vote Opposes McInnes Action
By Katbleea Rionlu
THE
NYC Fellows Open
The (acuity meeting last
Tuesday. overwhelming voted to
oppose President Mcinnes's
alleged actions to remove Dr.
Augustine Caffrey's tenure.
Walter Petry. chairman of the
local chapter of the American
Association of University
Professors. presented the
motion for the approval of the
faculty. The proposal slated lhat
the faculty disclaimed the
presidenfs actions. and Utal
CaUrey be given a conlract

would form an ad hoc committee
that would approach the Board
of Trustees at which lime they
would denounce the president.
Augustine Caffrey.
deparunent of religion. was
formerly a member of the
Society of Jesus and whose
contract will be revoked at the
end of the 71-i2 academic year.
Mr. Petry vehemently claimed
that Fr. Mcinnes to date has
produced no grounds for the
dismissal of Dr. Caffrey. Petry
announced that the President
had not produced adequate proof
that would warrant termination
of tenure according to the AAUP
laws. In fact he added that not
once in the charges against
Caffrey was there any menlion
of misuse of the classroom (lr
that of academic unfitness.
'£hH! Process Violaltd'
Furthermore. Mr. Petry noted
that the President had
terminated Dr. Caffrey's tenure,
and that to now call for due
process was out of (lrder. He
alleged that the President
terminated Caffrey's tenure not
through any charge of academic
unfitness but through a trumped
up charge based on Caffrey's
decision to leave the Society (If
Jesus and to no I(lnger
participate in the Catholic
Church.
Not only is this charge unique
according to Petry but there are
also no grounds for it under
AAUP laws. Finally Mr. Petry
demanded that the President
cease and desist his present
course of action.

Eventually our two schools
will be fUlly co-ed. Rather than
becoming isolationists. I think
we should keep the lines of
communication open. Some good

intercollegiate exchange. I
believe we can have fun. So let's
get together more often. Hope to

resides in his criticism of The
Voice for writing an article
about my speaking tour. The
Voice is merely reporting the
news. And I'm quite sure that if
Mr. Kennedy were to embark
upon a nationwide speaking tour,
he too would receive an
objective article from the Voice.
No matter how Mr. Kennedy
to ofbuscate the issues by
attacking the society with
unproven assertions. the real
issue at stake here is the right of
the Voice to objectively report
the news in a rational manner
conducive to the continued
retent'on of academic freedom

Letters
Sincerely,
Catherine C, Buxton,
Dear Editor:
This leller Is written in
response to one printed in the
October 21 issue of the Voice
which criticized the paper for
having backed Nicholas Bove
and the John Birch Society.
Objective newspaper coverage
is not to be interpreted as
support for the topic of the news
article. The purpose of the story
written about Nicholas Bove was
to relate the summer
experiences of one Fairfield
student.
Mr. Bove has expressed that
the article has helped his
recruitment on campus. I would
like to make it clear that this is
merely a consequence of news
reporting. My intent in writing
the article was neither to
support nor to condemn Mr.
Bove's views, just to present
them.
I would like to direct my
remarks to the Campus Center
Mezzanine appearance.
As an employee and general
observer. I went over to view the
Sculpture Exhibit. The lovely
mezzanine appeared to be a
hang-oul for careless students
who leave their paper cups and
other waste around. The
sculpture display stands had
been moved in a disorderly
manner. The general look was
not that of a proud display of
works of art, which I might add
is valued well over S30,000 (rom

N!specl this university???
Since the students are young
adults. my suggestion to them is
PLEASE THINK of this
university or any public place as
a place that does not belong to
them personlly and, therefore,
it is not to be used as their
personal room to leave things
about or to lounge in an
immature manner as younger
children do. You're big now .
ACT BIG!
To the Editor:
In reply to the letter by Mr.
Kennedy concerning his worries
about-the John Birch Society, I
am. indeed, very pleased to
discover that he is interested in
the "WHOLE truth," But,
contrary to his assertions, I have
never described the John Birch
Society as any kind of utopia. I
also believe that it is rather
closed minded to judge and for
that matter condemn the entire
organization due to the actions of
a few· a few who have yet to be
proven members of the John
Birch Society.

woefully neglected in the areas
of athletics, academics and
politics. It is the expressed
desire of the commuter club to
see that this neglIgence is
terminated immediately and
permanently. Then. and only
then will the university be
capable or fun('tkmin~ to its

its ulmOst capacity as stated in
the handbook which seeks to
have the student "to participate

However. without the active

the students do not support the

the Commuters suffer. but also
the entire student body. as will
the university itself. The Central

the charter and trying to seek
support for the club. The
opportunity has been opened for
the commuter to change the
that we have been derelict in our
duty as journalists to provide our

significant issues confronting
them. Please wait, however, for

At the time of its inception,
two years ago, the Voice
dedicated itself to the task of
increasing the amount of
published opinion from varied
segments of the community. not
just students as was the practice
of the all·student organ, the
Stag, of which I was the
managing editor.
To this end. a tripartite
editorial board was es.tablished
whieh published reports of its
consensus opinion on various
issues throughout last year.
We are still dedicated to that
same proposition, though we
have learned from one year's
experience that it may be
unrealistic to expect an editorial
board to achieve consensus and

How About Some Opinion?
By James Mangitles '74
Hecently. the emergence of a
Commuter's Club was observed
by students of Fairfield
University. The Commuter's
Club was formed for a variety of
reasons. First of all. it was
formed With the Intent of getting
the (:ommuting students more
involved in the activities of the
University Community. This was
then broadened to include the
Fairfield County area. For. who
would know better about the
social ills facing the greater
Bridgeport area than the
commuting students who live
there? With this in mind. the
nine member central committee
drew up its charter to provide an
opportunity for all interested
students to actively participate
in the remedy of the existing
social ills in Fairfield County.
Another reason why the club was
more initiated was to give the
commuting student some voice
in the affairs of thiS school. The
commuter in the past has been
Yes, the Voice will print
editorials this year. No, the
president of the university will
not preside over the board. nor
will he even be free to censor
those pieces which aren't
exactly flattering to the
university. But. under our
present plans. Fr. Mcinnes has
as much right to express his
opinion on our editorial page as
any student. faculty member. or
administrator on campus. Our
only problem. however. is
getting people around here to
stand up and be counted, or
printed. I should say.
In all seriousness, it's been 7
long issues (that's all we've
published this year) since
editorial comment has officially
graced the pages of the Voice
and nobody in the community
could be anymore unhappy, and
frustrated about this situation
than I have been. Or my other
editors for that maller; they
have to find copy to fill the
vacant columns.

"unrealistic to achieve

SigDed Editorials
Therefore. forthcoming
revisions in procedure. while
maintinaing the tripartite nature
of the board. will probably
ex:pand its role of writintg
editorials to include the
solicitation of editorials as well.
Weekly. two editorials would
be assigned to two members who
would either research and write
signed editorials or solicit signed
editorials from university
persons informed of the issue. In
this way. editorials would
express individual opinion rather
than board concensus.
Regarding the valuable role of
the editorial board in facilitating
the availa~ility of the Voice to
all three university sectors. Fr.
Trinkle asserts that "the Voice
should not be amouthpiece for
anybody in particular."
Replacing editorials of
concensus with signed editorials
solicited by a tripartite board
would insure a broad selection of
relevant editorial topics without
neutralizing individual opinion,
according to Grace.
Thus, a grE-ater number of
individuals could utilize the
Voice as a direct mouthpiece of
opinion, he added.

Lantern's Point forged into a tie

Regis 4 kept its unbeaten
record intact with a 14-6 win over

their first touchdown of the
season. R-4's 6-0 record ensures
them of at least a first place lie
in the Capitol Division with only
two games remaining.
Campion 3 widened its lead in
the Costal Division by capturing
a 6-0 decisions from Gonzaga 2.
Frank Johnson's touchdown
aerial to Marty Sailor was the
clincher; Campion 2, bauling all

An ex:citing performance by
famed violinist Tossy
Spivakovsky was given
Wednesday night October 20 here
at Fairfield University. In this
second in a series of eight
concerts co-sponsored by The
Fine Arts Department at the
University and the Student
Government. Mr. Spivakovsky,
accompanied on piano by
Andrew Heath, poured forth a
stimulating two hours of violin
music to an appreciative
audience.
Tossy Spivakovsky is a
critically acclaimed, world
reknowned musician. A student
of Arrigo Serrao and Willy Hess.
Mr. Spivakovsky has travelled
widely, performing with
numerous great orchestras. Mr.
Spivakovsky is not only a fine
musician, but is also a master of
knowledge about violin, having
written some on the subject.
In his performance Wednesday
night at Julie Hall Chapel., Tossy
Spivakovsky played to a capacity
crowd. Fortunately, the
acoustics of the Julie Hall
Oiapel are far superior to those
of the Oak Room, sight of the
previous concert. Because of the
improved acoustical situation,
the music was more audible and
easier to li~ten to.
Schubert's Sonata in A Major,
Opus 162. was the first piece
performed by Mr. Spivakovsky
and Mr. Heath. The Sonata
consists of four movements
which are duos and dances
between the piano and the violin.
The music was exciting and
sweet, but at the same time
tragic and mysterious.
The second composition was a
number of J. S. Bach. This piece,
the Partita No.2 for Violin Solo
in 0 Minor is a relalively
difficult piece to perform, yet
Spivakovsky did a fine job in
handling the difficulties,
especially in his use of the
curved bow in two of the
movements. The curved bow is a
specialized bow used to play
chords of several notes on the
violin.
After an intermission, Mr.
Spivakovsky returned to do his
final number, Sonate'POur Violin
et Piano, by Debussy. This lively
and imaginative composition by
Debussy was performed ably by
both Heath and Spivakovsky.
Accordingly, the pianist and the
violinist were greeted with a
standing ovation, so Mr.

times good kicks by center Tom
Damato and fullback Mike
Gallagher drove the New

Fairfield victory
lends itself especially to
Barakat's favorite type of game
- lhe running game.
The 6'4 Bogad played a guard
position as a frosh when he
averaged 16 points per game but
this year he'll probably be
moved to a forward position.
Bradley, a lean 6'9", gives the
squad its tallest member and is
regarded as a fine defensive
player adept at blocking shots.
New Image
By running, the second year
coach hopes his club will project
a new and more exciting image.
"We intend to open up the game
by laking advanlage of our speed
and quickness," commented
Barakat.
This strategy depends upon the
opponent and also whether the
Stags can get the ball off the
boards. Rebounding could be the
team's biggest problem.
Last year's rebounding leader,
Frazer, is gone with no one else
averaging over six rebounds per
game. This year's group of Stag
big men will be depended upon to
fill this gap.
