Cause of No Gov't. Audit
John M. Hickson. VicePresKlent
in charge of the
University's Business and
Finance Division. has revealed
that Student Government
President Steven Mednick and
Treasurer Robert Kunces have
submitted the Government's
financial books to him for audit
of the 197I-n bud~et.
Finn Holds Up A.dil
According to Student
Government representatives the
action results from a series of
mix-ups and delays caused when
President Mednick attempted to
secure a financial opinion from a
private New Haven auditing
firm.
Mr. Mednick first attempted
to obtain an audit of the
Government's books durin~ the
summer when he asked Mr.
Kunces to supply him with all
financial records and receipts
pertaining to the previous fiscal
year. Although there seems to be
some confusion as to what
happened next. Mr. Kunces
apparently complied.
Nevertheless. either as a
consequence of his own oversight
or because of an unfamiliarity
with reading financial
transcripts. Mr. Mednick came
to believe that he had not been
given all of the necessary
figures.
Mednick Inserts Figures
It was at this point that the
Government President. using
the cancelled checks and
reeeipts which he had in his
possession. attempted to fill in
what he thought were the
missing figures. These he sent at
the end of the summer to the
New Haven accounting finn of
Einebinder and Young. lIt1lich
had promised to perform the
audit free of charge.

should not be taken as a sign that
its members have not held
divergent viewpoints. On the
contrary. committee members
have often expressed
disaRreement as to those
qualifications which they
consider essential.
When questioned about his own
views concerning the list. Dr.
Combs replied that to him
scholarly commitment was the
most important qualification.
"I would not like to see a
businessman in chaq!e of the
University because I think the
person chosen should definitely have
some kind of educational
philosophy. At the same time he
should be flexible enough and
capable of acting as arbitrator
between opposillR factions."
He went on to explain that he
would not like to see the new
Prestdent chosen from among
the Fairfield faculty itself.
because such a person would be
lacking in objectivity and would
be bound by his fonner ties with
other members of the faculty. As
a result he might tend t e
own committee, consisting of a
chainnan and foor consulting
members instead of two. This
problem was solved at the
Trustee search Committe's
meeting of November 17. when
the Trustees accepted the rive·
man Faculty search Committee
as represenUrtfl: the entire
faculty.
However. faculty disfavor of a
position merely advisory and its
lack of a vote in the final
choosing of a new President have
posed a new problem.
Although some among the
faculty find this status
acceptable. others have voiced
consKlerable criticism. In fact.
at its November 17 meeting the
general faculty voted to boycott
membership on the sevenmember
committee unless the
Trustees accede to faculty
demands for some binding vote
in the search process.
In addition the committee's
apparent agreement on the list
of core requirements desirable

that education at Fairfield has become a servant of

Apparently in accordance with the overly I . d

Arts Need
A Theatre
. Robe
This past Sunday dramatized on~aJ!ain the need for
a theatre on the Fairfield campus. The Ambassadors of
So~ (The Glee Clubl presented a combined concert
with the St. Joseph's (Hartlord) Glee Club. When the
time came for the com bined number at the end of the
concert. the two o~anizations crowded onto the sta~e
so tiJthtly it was a wonder that they were able to sinJt.
There is no permanent place on campus which has a
st3Jte and seatiol'! capacity to handle such occasions.
Gonzal!3 Auditorium is hardly the place for a musical.
and the university Playho'Jse has a somewhat limited
sealin~ capacity. The Oak Room is not suitable for all
dramatic or cultural events.
Concerts would nol be the sole beneficiaries of a new
theatre. The weekend movies would benefit J!reatly
from a permanent. la~e theatre buildinJ!. A movie
screen which could be lowered into place would not
only be better for viewi~ the shows. but also would run
less risk of bein~-vandal ized than the current screen.
Most universities in the country have a buildin~
desi~ned to encou ra~e the perlonnin~ arts. In the past
few years. Fairfield has built a new science buildin~
and has expanded seatin~ in the ~ymnasium. It would
seem that buildin~ plans for a theatre ou~ht not to be
dismissed Iiji!:htly, if Fairlield is to offer its students a
wide scope of ways in which they may express
themselves.

"My Uncle" was written and
directed by Jacques Tati - who
also plays the lead role. This
parody of automated factories
and futuristic booses is so perfect
that even after 13 vean the film
is not dated. Tati's films are
affectionate toward human
beings, but, at the same time,
scornful of bourgeois rigidity,
materialism and convention. He
is an irresistable and universal
clown with a superb sense of
timing. "My Uncle" was
awarded the Academy Award for
best foreign film in 19S8.
"Reefer Madness" was made
in 1936. It is a dramatic feature
about the evils of smolting marijuana.
Made as a serious film in
the era when a national movement,
under the direction of the
Treasury Dept., outlawed the
smoking of Cannabis,
"Reefer Madness" today is a
wildly humorous statement about
the mores of America. Kevm
SaDders of ABC·TV said about
this film: "An incredible series
of gross and ludicrous distortions
tbat 36 years later becomes
hilarious when seen from the
other side of \be generation gap,
a gap this film did so. much to
create."

reveal the soundness of the
Government's financial policies.
When queried aboot why the
Government had not accepted
the Hickson offer duririjl; the
summer. President Mednick
responded. "No one from the
University had ever told me
about it.··
with snow. but already I have
been hearing "I don't know: it
doesn't really feel like
Christmas" around sch~1. But
is Christmas something for a
vaRUe "it" to feel. or for us?
1f it doesn't feel like
Christmas. what are we doing to
improve the situation? There are
ways. And they are not easy.
The best solution to this
dilemma was given to me by a
teacher in high school who, about
this time of year, told all his
classes ready for Christmas
vacation that the best Christmas
they could have would mean to
foflow Christ's example
perfectly: For the week between
Christmas Day and New Year's
Day, we were to think of
nothing for ourselves. "1 want"
was to be stricken from the
active vocabulary. He dared us
to do it. I tried, and I failed. But I
am willing to try again.
So maybe Edna can be proven
wrong. She is a good judge of "la
condition. humaine," but if we
stop worrying about parking lots
and Union Theological
seminaries and the best way to
replace someone who hasn't left
yet. maybe she will get the

saw it in tbe
Voice
He particularly criticized the
students for their long-standing
"confusion" of the concept of
binding authority witb that of
govemance. "When governance
becomes a political notion. it
becomes confused. When
govemance is seen as ultimate
authority to bind someone. it
obscures all possibilities of
participating and working
together. In an academic
community the greatest right
should be to be heard. Here
students want to be able to put up
their hands and bind people."
Cite Need for Strolll Leaclerslaip
Fr. Mcinnes emphasized that
student activity requires. more
than anythinjil: else. strong
student leadership. For
example. three years ago the
commuter club and the film
society \\"ere very active; then
their leaders graduated. and the
c1ubscoJlapsed.
He would like to see "a strong.
representative Student
Government so that issues could
be heard. and not sidetracked by
pseudo· issues. .. He also
recommends that the President
of the Student Government be a
junior. since sophomores lack
sufficient experience in the
operation o( the school. and that
the concept of class officers be
reinstated to restore a sense of
class identity. For students who
wish to participate in the
University's J{ovemance. they
should get involved at the faculty
level: that's where the decisions
are made.
CbaJleaa:es of tbe SeveDlies
Finally. what are the
challenges Fairfield races in the
seventies? Father Mcinnes
believes that academically
Fairfield has a great future.
Evidence of this is that it was
one of the six private collejil:es in
Connecticut that encountered an
increase in enrollment this year.
in the company of schools like
Vale. Wesleyan. and Trinity. But
as a University Fairfield l'eeds
to "tighten up a sense of
direction. People are asking
where do we go from here? Not
construct more buiildings. but
teaching. In the coming years.
we need to develop really good
teaching. .. And the new
president in 13 who will lead this
task is faced with the same
problem as the new president in
'64: "Lead the schooL J{ct
students interested - that's the
president's job. He has to be a
leader:' Says William C.
Mcinnes. "The challenge of the
seventies is to find alternate
ways to grow in learning and
cooperation. and not to find ways
to polarize one another."

The experiment is one of a

each trial. it takes a period of
time in a learning situation for
the electrophysiolOfi\:ical and
biochemical process involved in
the pennanent fixation of
memory to become complete.
"Studying the number of trials
per session and variations in
intersession is one of the many
paths being taken in an attempt
to understand the memory
process." explained Or. salafia.

Fr. Mcinnes. by virtue of his

collelile presideDts who were
unfortunate enough to have been
in o(fief! in the latter half of the
sixties. The years of student
dissent at Fairfield were
characterized by the
transfonnation of a strict, male.
Catholic college into an open.
diverse University. They were
also characterized by building
takeovers. mass rallies. and a
student strike. Lookinlil back on
these years and the changes that
occurred. Fr. Mcinnes said "The
pressure of society around us
brought about chanjil:es in the
university·· in life styles. in

position viz. a viz. the
community." But he thought the
pressure exerted by the students
was counter-productive. "The

But he also added. "He has far

authority as chief spokesman for

Professors Fishman and
Greenberg organized the survey
In such a way that the
"instrument" may be used ajilain
in the future by other instructors
and their students.
This first return represents the
initial step in the development of
a "data bank," based on the
relationship of this infonnation
to the larger body of input
already gathered on these same
areas in the 19'70 census.
Over and above the scientific
value of tbe newly·initiated
program. the professors
recognize lhe worth of the
survey as a "pedagogical
endeavor" for the students
involved.
"It provides him with a
growing experience because
there are real responsibilities
given to each student." says Mr.
Greenberg. "U's not like a tenn
paper which he works on in the
library and then puts away."
Mr. Fishman comments that
"there's a tendency in most
academic instilutions to
learn about life solely through
books. and we wanted our
students to get away from this. "
Mr. Greenberg observes
further that "it is quite
important for the student to get
out of the classroom and into the
real wortd to test the limits and
potentialities of the theories he
has read about in textbooks...

The "undecided" vote will
undergo additional analysis to
determine whether the
"undecided" voters were bound
by some common characteristic.
such as political party or social
class.
Also, they will attempt to
correlate the citiZf'ns overall
voting preferences with their
ethnic background and social
class in an attempt to detennine
whether a relationship exists
between these factors.
In addition to the questions on
the election. the four-page
questionnaire Included a variety
of queries concerning other'
political and social issues.
Sociology students are
interested in a section of the
questionnaire which examines a
citizen's notion of his
neighborhood boundaries.
Professor Fishman sulgests that
prior to the survey students
hypotheslZled that members of
lower class nelghborboods would
tend to eJ:pand their boundaries,
while those of more upper class
sections would be likely to
restrict their dimensions.
The political scientists will
focus on the results. when
analyzed. of questions such as
asking voters their political
party preferences on the local
level. They hope to compare
local preferences to the national
party identification of such
voters in order to detennlne
whether the party system
still holds in a local level.
Another interested party When
the results are finally labulated
will be the Higher Education
Center for Urban Studies
IHEaJSI, which has provided
some funding for the program In
return for a final report which is
expected next spring.

Cardirial
Key Serves
University
By Timotllly Grace
Preliminary resullS from a
voter survey taken in Fairfield
County communitaes this fall
suggest that most local voters
decided on a candidate before
November 7 and then stuck to
their guns when going to the
pollson election day.
The survey was conducted by a
learn of more than 100 Fairfield
University students this fall as
part ot the requirements for a
combined Urban SociologyUrban
Politics course.
Under the direction of
Professors Harry Fishman and
Donald Greenberg. the students
surveyed citizens in 88 census
tracts in the urban and suburban
areas or Bridgeport, Fairfield,
Stratford. and Trumbull. in
addiHOIl to Norwalk. Westport,
Stamford and Danbury, on a
variety of political and social
questions.
Results released this week b}'
the professors show that most
people wOO said they intended to
vote for President Richard
Nixon in advance of election day
actually did so on November 7.
Thus far. Professors Fishman
and Greenberg say the only
inconsistency between their preelection
data and the actual
voting statistics stems from the
fact that they underestimated
the number of votes registered
for Senator George McGovern.
who lost by an overwhelming
marRin.

LEADING THE RUSH - Captain Gerry Michaud slickllandles
into the offensive zone during the 8-S victory over UB.
By Tom MuaJ
Imagine the headlines. "Pbyll.is Rogers nels 39 points as the Stags
upset Providence." The possibility of this really happening bas
become slightly less remote with a recent rewording of the Eastern
Collegiate Athletic Conference constitution. . .
According to Athletic Director C. Donald Cook. the constitution
had previously stated that the conCerence was fonned in order to
help "competition between men" and that this phrase has been
changed to "competition between students." Thus any implied
discrimination against women competing has been eliminated.
He stated that "if a girl has the ability to play any varsity sport
then this should be recognized, however many of the girls favor a
revision in the basic rules of the game," aDd he did not agree with
lhat concept.
When pressed on the practicality of girls playing varsity sports at
Fairfield, Mr. Coot was rather dubious. "It would be very difficult
considering our present facilities, equipment, and coaching staffs.
Philosophically we are willing to let girls compete but realisticaDy
it woold be very impractical."
Locker Room gUCS
Perhaps a few specific examples would show bow impractical and
embarrassing it would be for females to compete with males on the
same team. The simple act of changing in the locker room before a
game could prove to be an awkward situation, and a well-en<1owed
girl might feel a little uncomfortable wearing a basketball jersey. If
she makes a nice shot, should one of the guys give ber a pat on the
behind?
In baseball there is always the chance that a girl might rip a big
hole in her pants while sliding or if she gets hit by a pitched ball
should the trainer go out and rub the spot where she was hit? Many
times a player'S jersey gets torn of[ wbile playing football and it
would be rather uncomfortable for a girl on the bottom of a pileup
with boys on top of ber.
Even rnaki.ng a simple chest-trap in aoccer could prove difficult
for some women. It appears that the only sports at Fairfield where
women would be able to compete on a realistic level would be tennis,
golf, and possibly tract.
However, so as not to discourage any future jockettes, just
remember that Vivian Fleming of Emerson, Iowa scored 200 points
In a high school state tournament, and Marie Boyd of Lonaconing,
Maryland scored 156 points in one game!

victory over the Owls.
Fairfield Five Wise-Up to Owls
in the Second Half, .Win 75-46
It was a good thing that Fairfield
played a team of Southern's
not too prominent caliber in the
traditional opener, and that the
second half of Saturday's 75-46
win was more indicative of the
type of ball the Stag team is
capable of; or otherwise. the 7273
campaign would have started
off on a losing note.
Obviously fired up at the outset
of the second stanza, Fairfield,
paced by Ray Kelly's three
straight jumpers and John
Ryan"s quick hands and even
quicker feet. raced to a 46-26
advantage during the first eight
minutes. During this stretch. the
Stags' opportunistic defense
capitalized on the Owls offensive
breakdown.
Southern could no longer maintain
its slow-down tactics after
Fairfield's Iightning.quick burst.
The Owls attempted to put points
on the scoreboard quickly relying
on Ron Conlan and John Ivey
from the outside, Both Conlan
and Ivey along with the rest of
the squad couldn't seem to connect
as their 16% second half
field goal percentage will attest.
Fairfield, on the other hand,
received strong rebounding performances
from Tom Duffy, Phil
Rogers, and Dave Bradley permitting
Southern only one shot at
the basket. 6'7" freshman John
Lavery had battled Fairfield's
big men single-handedly in the
opening period, but his lack of
board support took its toll in the
second half,
First Half Leldown
Southern had made Fairfield
play its type of game in the first
half as the patient Owl attack
cashed in on many Stag defensive
lapses to score most of its points
on layups, or on foul shots
resulting from attempted layups,
Led by Ivey's 10 points, the Owls
were down by a 27-24 score at
halftime, and surprisingly held a
14-13 rebounding edge on the
strength of Lavery's 6,
Coach Barakat admitted to the
Stags being impatient and over-
