Gov't Suggests
Academic Plan
EDITOR'S NOTE :The following statement baa been released
by Student Government President PhWp Howe and the Ex·
eeotlve Board to the Student A.uoelaUon.
The academic side of the student's life has all too frequently
been neglected by the Student Govermnent. This year, however,
with an Academic Forum composed of many activist members of
the Student Association, and a Legislature that seeks to implement
necessary reforms in this field, the Student Government will no
longer be forgetting this important aspect of student life.
Your President and Executive Board have been discussing
this topic at recent meetings, and have recognized a need for some
firm direction and suggestions for the Student Association to sup­port
in altering the academic structure of our life at Fairfield.
We, then, put forward for your perusal and discussion what we
feel are valua-ble and concrete reforms:
1. The institution of a course and teacher evaluation survey
to be conducted yearly, which will be the opening statement of
expanded teacher-student dialogue. As the Fourth Annual Jesuit
Student Body Presidents' Conference said last year on the subject:
The purpose of a course-teacher evaluation
is to improve the academic atmosphere of the
college community. This entails a two-fold re­sponsibility.
First, results should be published
subject to the needs of the individual colleges
and distributed to the student body to enable
them to make the most reasonable selection of
courses and teachers possible. Second, the re­sponsibility
to improve faculty methods should be
recognized.
2. The burden of two final examinations in the same day
should be eliminated forever. No student can give adequate at­tention
or preparation to a subject if he has to take two examina­tions
in one day, especially if he had one the previous afternoon
also.
3. An optional pass-fail system should be instituted for the
1969-1970 academic year, in Art, Music, Business Communica­tions,
and Theology. The student should have the option to take
the letter grade or a pass-fail, keeping in mind that graduate
schools must have the letter grade at admission time. This sys­tem,
in the above courses, wlll eliminate grade seeking and the
resultant stress on students; and will serve to encourage students
to enrich their education by taking courses which they might
otherwise be discouraged from taking, or not enjoy taking, if
mandatory.
4. Only six theology and nine philosophy credits should be
required. The twelve credits not required for both subjects pre­ConUoued

University Council Ratification
Anticipated Tomorrow Night
By GEOR~E BRITTON
The formation and realization of the proposed University Council, which was
supposed to go before the Student Government Legislature for ratification at
their first meeting, is currently pigeon holed in the Legislative Sub-Committee
which is handling the student consideratic.n of the University Council's approval.
On St:ptember 25, it appeared
as though the University Coun­cil
would have been in effect by
the middle of October. How­ever,
because the Sub-Commit­tee
cannot get its members to
meet and formally present the
draft to the Legislature, the
movement towards putting the
University Council into motion
has slowed down considerably.

Philip Howe indicated that
the proposal is due for pre­sentation
tomorrow at the Leg­islature
Meeting. Mr. Howe
"hoped" that the deadlin.e would
be met, which it will if the pro­posal
can go through Commit­tee
before the meeting. Mr.
Howe also added that the Fac­ulty
and the Administration are
awaiting Legislative action on
the proposal. Mr. Howe anti­cipated
no trouble in securing
an approval by the Faculty, and
said that he was "sure" that the
Administration would accept the
proposal immediately.
Once the University Council
is in operation, its representa­tives
will consider the "specific
areas of educational practices,
admission, scholarships, and
student health and welfare.
The University Council's de­cisions
have no binding au­thority
but Its recommenda­tions
for change and innova­tion
would have a considerable
amount of weight with the ad­ministration.

New CoTnTnittee Focuses on Non-academic Student Life
By DUANE McDONALD
Tomorrow evening the Legis­lature
is scheduled to act on
nominations for Student mem·
bers of the Faculty Student­Life
Committee. The nominees
are Thomas Quackenbush '69,
Kevin Brady '70, and Thomas
Mitchell '71. Philip Howe, Stu­aent
Government President,
who made the nominations,
sees little reason why they
should not be approved. He
said that he had chosen them
carefully and felt that they
represented a "good cross-sec­tion
of student views."
In addition to the three stu­dents,
flve faculty members will
sit on the committee. They are
Mr. Paul Davis, Mr. Carmen
Donnarwnma, and Frs. William
carr, Albert Reddy, and Vln-cent
Burns, who are dormitory
prefects. Mr. Robert Griffin,
Dean of Student Services, and
Mr. Ronald Bianchi, Assistant
Dean, will also be voting mem­bers.
The Director of Medical
Services, Dr. Sal Santella, will
take part and vote when health
and welfare services are being
discussed.
The purpose of the Commit·
tee, in the words of the 1968
Faculty Handbook, is "to study
and make recommendations con­cerning
all non-academic as­pects
of student life: extracur­ricular
activities, student health
and welfare services, food serv·
ices, dormitories, undergradu­ate
conduct, and to cooperate in
the administration of a code of
conduct."
Philip Howe emphasized that
the committee will serve only
in an advisory capacity. Its
main purpose, he believes, will
be "to aid the faculty in un­derstanding
the students' ideas
and problems and to help the
two groups communicate better
with each other."
He also said that the com­mittee
does not want to inter­fere
with the actions or powers
of two other proposed bodies:
the proposed University Coun­cil
or the Disciplinary Review
Board. These two, since they
contain representatives from all
three sections of the university
community, should be consid­ered
most able to deal effec­tively
with students' problems,
he said.
The S tu d e n t Government
President also stressed that the
committee will not concern I~
self with academic matters or
academic problems of individual
students.
In more detail, the group will
deal with Student Activities in
the following areas: "to evalu­ate
the total program of stu­dent
activities, facilities, activi­ties
calendar, with a special
emphasis on the amount of par­ticipation
of students in such
activities; to appoint one of the
two faculty members on the
Student Publications Board; to
recommend to the faculty
changes in policies regarding
eligibility for participation in
student activities."
The second concern will be
health and welfare services, in­cluding
the food service. The
Committee's final function will
be the consideration of under­graduate
conduct in these four
areas: 1.) To regularly discuss
and make recommendations to
the faculty and then, on its ap­proval,
to the appropriate agen­cies
concerning dormitory lif.e
on campus and the well-being
of boarders off-campus. 2.) To
make recommendations
concerning regulations govern­ing
the general conduct of un­dergraduates.
3.) To cooperate
with the Student Govermnent
in the maintenance of morale
on campus and of satisfactory
standards of conduct on the
part of all undergraduates. 4.)
To recommend to the appropri­ate
agencies policies concerning
dismissals and other penalties

the front gym on Thursday,
December 5 at 9:30 p.m. Dale
Swanson, chairman of the com­mittee,
disclosed that all tickets
will be sold ·at $5.00, except to
those students with an activity

Mr. Swanson also stated plans
for a concert in February, al­though
he had no definite group
in mind as yet. This evening,
combined with a "ski-day" to be
held another weekend in Feb­ruary
- will replace the tra­ditional
Mardi Gras festivities.
The ski-day is to consist of a
full day on the slopes followed
by a beer mixer in the evening.
Powder Hill, in Middlefield,
Conn., is the tentative location
and Marymount, Manhattan­ville,
New Rochelle and possibly
Good Counsel are the colleges
which will be invited.
Lastly on his 'as-yet-tenta­tive•
calender, Mr. Swanson
announced a "Social Saturday"
to take place in the Spring. The
affair would consist .of busing
two to three hundred students
to a girls' college, most likely
Manhattanville, for the day. At
the college there would be a
Rugby game in the afternoon,
followed by a cook-out dinner,
and topped-off with a beer
mixer that night.
"There are other activities
coming up in the future, but
are too tentative to publicize as·
yet," affirmed the chairman of
the Social Committee.

Continued from Pace 1
vent the acquisition of a minor field of study in other subjects;
for instance, a'n economics minor to complement a major field of
study in history. The number of courses available for the major
field of study is restricted by the ti.qle periods being taken by
mandatory theology and philosophy courses. It should be noted
. that these subjects are necessary for a well-balanced liberal educa­tion,
but not to the mandatory degree as now. We wo)lld suggest
that in each field a general survey course be given freshman year,
and that a sound course in the Bible be presented, also. The elec­tives
in each field could then be specific areas of study.
5. Elective courses in a student's major field of study should
not be squeezed into one or two class.periods, so that the student
might have a better choice of subject matter.
6. A definite effort must be made to speed the distribution of
grades. Computerization would help, ·but the real fault lies with
the faculty, some of whom are altogether too slow in handing in
marks to the Dean's Office. Added clerical help in the Dean's
Office, with secretaries to handle grades, and a separate recep.
tionist to handle appointments and telephone calls would help the
process greatly. A system should be established whereby those
students on academic probation and/or in danger of failing out of
school for other academic reasons be given priority and notified
quickly so that they have a fair chance to enter another college
quickly, or are able to exert great energies to remain at Falrfteld.
7. The departments of History and Politics each should in­stitute
as soon as is practical several elective courses in Asian
and African economics, social, military, religious, and political
history. History and Politics majors should have some knowledge
of Asia and Africa, in addition to Europe, the United States, and
Latin America.
These are seven areas in which the Executive BOard and I
feel there should be changes in the academic life of Fairfield Uni­versity.
We realize that there are strong arguments for and against
each statement above, but we also believe that the time for
dialogue has come, and we know that the faculty Js anxious to
discuss such things as we have suggested. We urge the students
to talk among themselves and to their professors about our pro­posals,
so that we can become united for change.

By BOBERT BURGESS
"The archaic management of the Fairfield Uni­versi~

that 1t 1s run by a private concession necessitates the
pol~cy .of attaining maximum profits, the burden of
wh1ch 1s borne by the students." This statement of dis­approval
about the Fairfield University Bookstore was
leveled at the concession by Thomas L. Conroy '71 and
Richard F. Militello '71, in a letter to The Sta~ last
week.

He also stressed the fact that
it would require the hiring of

Mrs. Brown's thoughts on
theft, he went on, "Just be­cause

Mrs. Brown expressed the
hope that these misunderstand­ings

"It's nice to have a friendly

Academic Revamping
The administration of this university is currently undertaking a
$16,000,000 capital campaign drive. If all goes well we can look
forward to more students, more buildings, and more "feathers" in
Father Mcinnes' "cap" as the great administrator who raised a mag­nificent
university complex out of the Fairfield wilderness.
Unfortunately, as we have said many times before, buildings
do not make a university. Neither do guest speakers or a good bas­ketball
team for that matter. A university is only as good as the
calibre of its students, faculty, and administrative educators.
As far as classroom performance is concerned, we have no rea­son
to complain about the calibre of most of our faculty members.
The student body also, in spite of itself, is above average. But what
about our administrative educators?
If Father Coughlin and Dr. Murphy consider themselves as such
they had better think twice. There seems to be a noticeable lack of
imaginative outlook in this university's educational system, save the
honors program.
We find it strange that conformity in student dress upsets high
officials more than educational conformity. If this administration is
really concerned about innovation, we suggest they look at their own
performance. The students are tired of "ivy" imitations and assorted
promotional gimmicks. Let's stop trying to become "the Notre Dame
of the East" or Connecticut's B.C. and start becoming an independent,
innovative Fairfield University.
In t his week's issue there is a concrete proposal submitted by
Student Government President Philip Howe and the Executive Board
that provides suggestions for needed revamping of Fairfield's aca­demic
life. We wholeheartedly endorse these sugg'estions and com­mend
the proponents of this proposal. Along with them. we ursre
serious administration consideration, and faculty and student ap­proval.
Bumbling The Issue
Yale University made another "contribution to the generations
~hea d " with its customary Brian Dowling efficiency last week with
Its announcement of undergraduate enrollment of women. After a
~ublicly-atated attempt to coalesce with Vassar fizzled, Yale drew up
Its o~n plan, submitted it successfully to its Corporation, and got
unammous faculty approval. All this right in the wake of a atudent­aponaored
experimental week in coeducation.
. Her~, a mere twenty-five miles to the west, our customary inertia
reigns .. L1ke it o~ not, our administration gives the impression of
bumbhng on the Issue. Beneath a mist of secrecy it insists that some
type of sch?ol will arrive here someday and st~y somewhere - a
message ne1the_r substantive, reassuring, nor articulate. Refusal to
nam~ ~he c~nd1date schools must be taken to mean that either our
Admm1strabon lacks Yale's self-confidence or girls' schools are

ashamed to have public dealings with us. Some comprehensive plan
should be made public now.
As for the students, they could not even get together to articulate
a definite "Yes" to the idea as late as twQ years ago. Student opinion
has probably shifted sufficiently towards the center from the right
to make plain that coeducation is popular now, but then again
the Administration has always made it publicly. plain that student
opinion does not really matter. This oompares unfavorably with King­man
Brewster's ready accommodations to the student fears expressed
in last week's Yale Daily News poll. We certainly see no students
sponsoring experimental weeks in coeducation, dQ we? And so it is
that the coming of girls may remove one of the more obvious sour
connotations to "Stag," but the manner in which it is being estab­lished
here, without proper discussion between all factions, certainly
seems to outweigh the more obvious advantages.

Disturbing Attitude
To the Editor:
I was sorely disturbed by the attitude
demonstrated by Mr. Robert K. Griffin
as reported In your article of November
13. Apparently Mr. GrUfin's concept of
education is the most narrow possible,
le. pencil, paper, and books. He doesn't
think "it is the school's duty to provide
a place to bring or entertain girls." Why
not? Is it not the J esuit ideal to educate
the whole man, intellectually, morally,
and socially? Then why pursue a policy
of parietals that discourages informal
and congenial socializing between stud·
ents and their girl friends in the privacy
and comfort of their own rooms. Surely
an enlightened policy on parietals could
only improve the awkward social situat·
ion on campus.
Following his stand on parietals, Mr.
Griffin gave an interesting explanation
for the 'open door• policy. He said "it is
not in any way intended to regulate or
legislate your morals" and "if your want
to shack up with someone you can find
a place whether or not you are home
or here" and "you owe it to her to re­spect
her position." Mr. Griffin's appar­ent
lack of concern for Stag morals Is
betrayed by his last two statements. He
obviously doesn't feel that a Stag can
respect a girl without having Fairfield
tell him he must. Thus the doors remain
open in salute to the "position" of fem­ininity.
Now comes a most startling revelation.
When asked if the school were placing
too much emphasis on outside opinion,
Mr. Griffin replied, "If I were catering
to the worst possible opinions, there
would be no student handbook." This
is the heart of the Fairfield dilemma. The
administration is too concerned with opin­ion
to be concerned with the needs and
wants of the students. U the United States
Congress heeded the worst possibl~ opin·
Ion there would be no Civil Rights Act.
Instead, they listened to better opinions.

Limited Student MOvem·ent·
By .JULIUS LESTER /

A student movement has its own builtrin limitations, both in tenns of how
much it can do and how much it can understand. In some ways, a student move­ment
tends to be artificial, because the student lives in an artificial environmentr­the
university. Thus, it is .natural that a student movement generally concerns itself
with issues that the majority of society has hardly any time at aU to be concerned
about. This is good to a point. Without the student demonstrations against the
war, there would've have been no antiwar movement. Without student conscious­ness
of racism, blacks would be even more isolated and vulnerable to attack.

its confines and as such, any
radical activity aimed at it is
of limited value.
Because the university Is a
temporary society, any move­ment
coming from it is in dan­ger
of being temporary. The
next student generation may
have more traditional interests
than the one which kept the

student movements are charac­terized
by a great willingness
to confront the reigning social

in a student movement
that will insure its evolution
into a radical movement once
the students leave the univer­sity.
Perhaps the greatest liability
of a student movement Is that it
is only able to speak to other
students. While this is of lim­ited
value, the fact still remains
that there is perhaps no group
more po'Nerless than students.

Fairfield
By ROBERT MURPHY
As we come to the halfway point in the ftrst semester, the
age old complaint about the academic system becomes a para­mount
issue in the minds of the student body. The system as it
exists is archaic and unjust to the student and the professor.
I find three basic things wrong with our academic system.
The grading scale, failing systell\, and required courses are in
desperate need of reform.
At present, most professors use a number system for the
entire semester and then convert the final grade into a letter. The
injustice is in the fact that a student who earns an 89 Is given
the same mark as one who earns an 80. The difference in the
two ~arks is obvious. To alleviate this sltuat:on why not add
pluses and minuses to the existing four letters T
My second point is the nonexistent pass-fail system. I feel
that such a program is needed here. 'lbe pressures and stress
produced by the student who is trying to keep up his average by
spending all his time on a subject that will do him no good in
either applying to graduate school or in applying for work are
unnecessary. A pass-fail program has worked at many schools
throughout the country and with the proper orientation can work
here. I feel that the scale for all non-major courses should be:
pass with honor, pass, fail. This would eliminate the main reason
why a student works in a non-major course - the grade, and
would allow both the teacher and the student to approach the
subject matter in a more relaxed and beneficial manner. Under
this system major and non-major courses would be computed
I The Other Side I
By I.emenee Prad'homme
Last Wednesday evening I was fortunate to p~cipate in the
Cardinal Key Society panel discussion, "Institutional Catholicism
- Help or Hindrance to Education." The main speakers were
Fr. John Mcintyre, S.J., of the English department, who expound­ed
the Jesuit view of education, and William O'Brien '69 who
opposed with the idea that a Catholic education tends to narrow
the learning process. 'lbe discussion, brOadcast over WVOF and
well-attended for an Oak Room event, was the first in a series
of CKS panels on Catholic Education.
Dr. Donald Coleman of the Philosophy department, repre­sentiDft
the faculty on the panel; added much to the discussion with
his OJI.PJ'l logical reasoning and perceptive questions. The intellec­tual
I<"i. Mcintyre proved that the best defense is a good offense
as he ably handled questions, both sincerQ and not-so-sincere, from
the panel and the audience. Although no panel could ever hope to
resolv.e such a topic, the discussion did lead some students, myself
included, to think about the education we are getting here at
Fairfield.
I hope that we never become so satisfied with the status quo
that we don't attempt to improve it. There is no Utopian state in
education, and the Catholic university finds itself with the double
task of providing the general education, whether in the liberal
arts or the technical sciences, while maintaining a specific Chris­tian
outlook. I feel that if education is to be in fact human, it­needs
some point of view from which to start. This viewpoint can
be accepted, _rejected, or not even recognized by the student. But
it does provide a basis. An attempt to give equal time and pre­sentation
to all the "isms" that exist would drastically .slow down
the learning process. It would be comparable to trying to read a
novel written in different. languages throughout.
In the classroom, whether a C~tholic institution or State uni­versity,
the professor will speak only in one "language" - that
of his own particular human frame of reference. In this way he
can best impart the knowledge he is recognized as having. Again
the student is still free to accept or reject what he is taught. But
if the masters or doctorate degree of the instructor is subjugated
to many non-personal points of view, the student will have diffi­culty
in knowing what he is accepting or rejecting.
I have difficulty in coping with anyone who purports to possess
the truth on a particular question. However, some facts must be
presented, or we find ourselves, as Fr. Mcintyre pointed out,
making them up. ·
I've had courses that were distasteful and professors inclined
more towards preaching than teaching. But I feel that many of
the students who would want to take Catholicism (which hasn't
be~n all that imposing) from the classroom and do their own
"thing" are not really interested in giving equal time to all the
"isms." Rather they would like to bE' taught the "ism" of their
choice, which could be very imposing, unless of course, the school
could provide 1,600 different courses.
Merry-Go-Round
separately to produce two cumulative quality point averages.
The third point is the number and nature of the required
courses at Fairfield. I feel that there are too many and that
their stated purpose is not realized. The fact that every student
is required to minor in Philosophy and that every Roman Cath­olic
is required to carry twelve credits in Theology is going a bit
too far. The courses offered in these departments are, shall I say,
not known for their superiority. In most cases the courses are un­interesting
and abvve the average s1udent's head. Courses that
should be taught to those who are truly interested in fully par­ticipating
in them are shoved down the throats of every student.
This not only creates an atmosphere of animosity, but also a feel­ing
of disinterest on the part of what might be a very interested
student To eorreet tbls 1ltuatlon I suggest ~at the requirements
be reduced to six Philosophy an<1 six Theology with the course~
in each to be decided by the individual student. I further suggest
the elimination of the requirements to take both Music and Art
replacing these with the option to take one or the other.
In conclusion, I think that an Academic Calendar Committee
composed of all three segments of the University should be set up.
This would rectify the problem that exists when holidays are
scheduled at inopportune times. Such a committee could easily be
set up through the Student Government and the Dean's office .. One
additional advantage of such a committee would be the end of the
needless running back and forth done by interested students on
the eve of a projected holiday. Such changes in the system and
the creation of such a committee will work if the concerned
parties take the time and effort to make them work .

A Depiction of Peace
By WILLIAM BOBOWICZ
BU~UEL'S "BELLE DE JOUR," FANTASY OR NOT? By STEFAN KOBASA
Spanish director Luis Bufiuel, age 68, deaf, and an acknowl·
edged alcoholic has aptly ended his career with a bizarre and
erotic study of fantasy in Belle de .Jour, which must be the most
cryptic film of the year.
ID all their whlaperJ.Dr, never a word of peace;
they wW aWl be ploUJ.Dr acalnlt the land's repose.
- Pulm M:JO
(For B. W. B.)
The story centers on Severine (played by Catherine Denueve)
as the secure and high-bred wife of a successful French doctor.
Not too deeply embedded in Severine's personality are the inhibi·
tions of her childhood seeking the outlet of reality. These ln·
hibitions are brought to the screen by Bu.i'luel in such a way that
the viewer is unable to determine decisivelY which actions are
fantasy and which are real. The audience sees all through the
eyes of Severine.
Peace is above politics. That is why politicians cannot achieve it. Chaos has
never been an ideal for any man, just for God. An interesting reversal of philos­ophy.
Nevertheless, if p·eace has never been experienced, it has, at least, been de­picted.
One cannot go in search of something without having an idea of what that
something is. So he might recognize it, you see. But reason is not the light. It is the
In the first scene, Severine t'learly imagines herself being
dragged from a carriage by two men who then whip and rape
her. We know this because the scene following is a swift change
to her bedroom where she is chaste and composed. Her husband
then calmly asks, "Severine, what are you thinking about?" She
answers, "About us, in a carriage." But from here on, there is
no clear dichotomy between what Severine is imagining and what
is actually happening. Does she realty work in a brothel? And
what about that scene in the coffin at a royal estate? GraduallY,
through a methodical blending of the real and unreal, a near
perfect continuity is formed, and the viewer becomes increasingly
baffled.
But Bufiuel does not let his film degenerate either into a
mystery or, with his comically erotic scenes, into an exploitation.
Rather, his character has a ravenous need for these perversions.
She needs them to lead her away from a congealing existence.
Neither Bufiuel nor l*verine ever indicate any signs of remorse
for actions, and it seems that Bufiuel has decided to retire on this
amoral note of Joycean or Lawrencean influence.
As one leaves the theatre, he is overwhelmingly perplexed.
What were the contents of that box the huge oriental brought
along for his visit with Severine in the brothel? Was Pierre
(Severine's husband) really paralyzed or was it just more wishful
imagining of his wife? But if the viewer dismisses the film
simply as perplexing, he is doing it an injustice. Buftuel has de­picted
a morality which fulfills human needs - that makes life
bearable - and the explanation of these mysteries is irrelevant
in this light He has not even explained certain things to Denueve.
Such is Bufiuel and possible explanations for his unpopularity.
However, one can hardly overlook the fact that this rum has run
over six months, and next to The Graduate, it is the longest run·
ning film in New York this year.

certain concern on the part of
Trygaeus, an Athenian citizen.

SeH -Conscious Frustration
By DARRELL DODGZ
College Preas Service
(!;oat In the Funhouae, by J ohn Barth Doubleday, 1968.)
The harried Author addresses his audience: "The reader! You, dogged, unin­sultable,
print-oriented bastard." We read on. Has the Author gone mad? The read­er?
Mad indeed! When the self sees its image reproduced to infinity in a Fun­house's
opposite mirrors, it might turn a way pleased by the illusion, or it might
(if it has reason to suspect its own reality) linger and ask, "Which is 'I'?" This
questioning-self-conscious, schizophrenic, and often grotesquely hilarious - is the
essence of John Barth's new collection of 14 stories.
A writer operates just this ----------- ------------­side
of some dangerous ground,
a twilight zone where words,
himself and his whole purpose
for writing seem intangible, dis­embodied,
even ridiculous. This
time, instead of running from it,
Barth operates, albeit as an
oceanographer o b s e r v e-s the
depths from the safety of a
bathoscaph, and the result - lf
a bit self-indulgent - is fas·
cinating.
The stories follow no linear
pattern (perhaps Barth's an·
swer to McLuhan?) and each
one can only be completely
"read" in the context of the en­tire
book. Stories play off
against, and with, each other
like words in a very tight poem,
yet their complexities create a
rich chaos strung together with
symbol and metaphor.

Though many of the stories
are meant for tape - and we
have to deal with print - the
desired effect of a "Disembodied

achieved by just keeping the
recorded voice in mind. In his
experiments Barth develops the
authorial voice itself and Am·

More Complaints
To the Editor:
Unfortwlately, last week I came upon
an example which further verified a
complaint made towards our bookstore
in last week's issue of the STAG.
I purchased from a book store in Fair­field
a book ordered in a large quantity
by a teacher of mine. The cost of the
book at this bookstore was $3.50. A
friend of mine had, at the beginning of
this semester, purchased exactly the
same book (including copyright date)
form our bookstore for $4.95. The price
marked on this particu)ar book like many
others was stamped by the Fairfie1d
Univenity Bookstore. I bate to think that
many of our books have already been
marked up 30% from their usual prices.
I cannot believe any excuse for this
absurd price difference. With this in
mind I can only find our bookstore's
integrity extremely suspe<:t - draw your
own conclusions.

Financial Trouble
To the Editor:
The purpose of this letter is to pub­licize
a plight. Most will no doubt shake
it off as irrelevant as getting up in the
morning, studying, and going back to
sleep. It is. But it that's your day you're
irrelevant.
The Fairfield Hockey Club is in finan­cial
trouble. The problem is that we
have not reteived an appropriate grant
from the Student Government. They have
granted us $75. But consider that the
Hcckey Club itself gave the Student
Government $300 in its activities fees.
The Student Government knows the size
of the Hockey Club's budget and how
necessary a grant is to its survival. But
the Student Government in its generosity
granted Social Action, which I assume
is the Y.I.C., $1,000 and WVOF $1,200.
That seems to lack proportion when you
subtract it from the alloted $3.180 which
was divided seven ways. No doubt there
were and are more clubs needing finan­cial
aid.
The plight here turns to a plea. I
realize the Student Government is han­dicapped
by the collection of the activi­ties
fees. But many of the appropria­tions
seem to me to indicate poor asset
management. Many of the Student Gov­ernment's
major expenses are future.
The Hockey Club's expenses are imme-d:
ate. Without some substantial aid from
the Student Government what could be
a very successful club will fail before
it's given a chance. I suggest to the
me-mbers of the Student Government
that you could allocate money from the
$3,000 put aside for 'tudent loans or the
$4,000 that Is going to be used for "con­certs,
mixers, parties, etc." or from
the $3,400 allocated to the Office of Ac:,
tivities, and make available a grant 6r
a loan in expectation of a grant and the
gate receipts of our games. The Student
Government would be negligent and
committing an act of bad faith if it
allowed the Hockey Club to die because
it Jacked a responsible grant. The Stu­dent
Government might also consider
how they are going to collect the ac­tivities
fees next year.
(All the facts I've used were taken
from the Student Government budget,
published in "Focus" October 7, 1968).

awaiting the start of the 1968-

through graduation last
June, and this season marks the
first collegiate coaching appear­ance
of James Lynam on the
beautiful Connecticut campus.
It is a rare miracle when a
new coach, let alone a rookie
mentor, can lead a team to
heights it has never reached
under the ten-year guise of his
predecessor overnight. Such is
the burden being placed on the
27 year old shoulders of Lynam.
The Stags will go through a re­building
season, but two former
aces who incurred academic dif­ficulties
a few years past have

One sees them at the field near the pond practic­ing.
Occasionally, as when the "A" team defeated Old
Blue, a monumental crowd of one-hundred or so watch
the contestants. However, more often than not, very
few others in the student body realize just what's hap­pening
on that sloping field with the cockeyed goal
posts across from the playhouse. At a cursory glance,
the young men wh-o participate in this sport may be
seen in a very unfair way: at practice, dress is com­posed
of a variety of shorts, tee shirts, head bands,
(and in the colder weather) sweat shirts, woolen caps,
and sweat pants. There are no practice uniforms; just
their own grass-stained, perspiration-filled rags.
They are proud. Have you ever heard stories of
those famous Rugby parties? I have too. Lots of beer,
broads, and a helluva lot of fun. They deserve it. The
Ruggers are viewed as somewhat of a phenomenon.
They have been described as a mob, or a rabble of
some sort. And, I will admit one would think so by
viewing that mass of humanity clawing, biting, scratch­ing,
ripping, tearing, and pulling each other's limbs
apart. WHY?
Rugby is a town in Warwickshire, central England.
It w!ls he~e that the game of Rugby was initiated by
the mventlve young boys of the Warwickshire school
in 1567. \Yith fifteen plaY:ers ·on a side, they lateralled,
passed, kicked and earned that funny-looking oval­shaped
bap. The objec~ w~s to. score a goal by running
(three pomts) ~ drop-kickmg It through the uprights
(also three pomts), or scoring two points by kicking
through the uprights after a touchdown. It must be
remembered these were young boys, inventive, no
doubt, and exuberant. What is there to do with boyish
exuberance but work it off?
Such is the case with the Fairfield Rugby Club -
with one exception : these are exuberant young men.
There are many parallels between those boys at the
Warwick~hire s_chool and our own Red Ruggers. Our
men are mvenbve: a club formed on the initiative of
the students in order to aff·ord young men the. chance
~o work off their boyish exuberance. As much as rugby
~s .kn~wn throughout the world, in the United States
It IS httle known. The Fairfield Ruggers have made it
known ~o many. And they lateral, carry, and kick that
ball as It was done four-hundred and one years ago.
. The external characteristics are very easily de­scnbed,
and one often wonders what makes the Rug­gers
_go ? Whr do they put themselves through all that
physical pumshment? It would seem there is a very
deep personal pride within these ruggers. To -watch
them on the field of battle, they are vicious -and merci­less,
and, yet, off the field, they are, f-or the most part
gentlemen. There is a strange mixture here a paradox'
Rugby, ~hat. bruta! physical sport, played by gentle:

What is the mystique of the game? More and
more you~g men seem t? try out f.or the club every
rear. Possibly, per~aps, It is that the game of Rugby
IS a paradox. Certamly, the Red Ruggers are a different
breed. A concrete answer or reason for their playing
the game may never be given. Maybe there is no con­crete

are not gettmg paid for their services. (Or are they?)

65 pounds heavier." Brown, is
this year's captain, and should
prove to be. the key to the
combo's success. Brown is now
a different and, perhaps, better
ballplayer, although he has lost
a great deal of speed and quick­ness.
Sanabria is the other re­turnee,
but Lynam notes, "In·
activity tends to make one
stale."
However, t h e s e excellent
shooters will be playing with a
new cast this winter. This is a
difficult task. It will take time,
patience, and hard work be­fore
Lynam's coaching tech­niques
and Stag basketball
fuse. Lynam agrees, "We'll field
five players - a brand new
unit - with a brand new
coach." It is difficult then to
mold a group which bas never
been exposed to their coach's
ideas.
Stags wm Preas
Although Brown has slowed
down a bit, Coach Lynam still
hopes to field a contingent
which will run and shoot while
pressing all over the court.
"But," be realistically notes,
"we may not be able to press
as often as I'd like." Playing
another grueling 26 g am e
schedule, L y n a m 's back is
against the wall because only
ten of these contests will be at
home.
Placing third in the N.C.A.A.
tournament at Kansas City in
his sophomore season for the
Hawks of St. Joe's certainly
rates as the highlight of his
playing career. The collegiate
Lynam was also selected as his
team's most valuable player
and shared the 1963 Philadel­phia
Big Five 1M.V.P. award
with Wally Jones, star guard
for the Philadelphia '76ers.
While in college, the neophyte
coach was also a member of the
Student Court and Sodality,
thereby earning his place in
"Who's Who Among Students in
America's Colleges and Univer­sities."
Upon graduation from the
Jesuit college in 1964, Lynam
guided Lansdale High School to
a 25-14 record before leading
the past three Hawk freshman
clubs to an overall 33-21 record.
His best mark was achieved in
his first season at Landsdale

test.
0 Problems stimulate me.
D Problems upset me.
If you want to earn a living in a field that con­stantly
offers new and exciting perspectives­new
problems to solve-consider the work of the
CPA.
A CPA has to grasp the essentials of many
different fields, and have the independence to
form objective opinions about them.
He's more in demand than ever before, by
corporations, non-profit agencies, government
bodies at all levels.
Why? Because the increasing complexity
of business requires new concepts of fact­gathering,
problem-solving, and communication
of economic information.
The CPA, for example, is one of the leaders
in planning new ways to use computer systems.
He might also be called upon to weigh the
relative merits of social programs in terms of
available resources, helping to shape an urban
renewal program.
So if.problems intrigue you, and if you have
aptitude for concentrated, meticulous, creative
thinking, you might make a good CPA- in a pub­lic
accounting firm, in industry, education or
government. At some point, you might even de­cide
to form a firm of your own.
Talk with your faculty advisor. He can tell
you about the courses that could lead toward a
CPA certificate soon after graduation .. or you
can do graduate work.
You can also learn about the work of a CPA

Comeback Win Over Patterson
By DAVID CAISSE
A high point was reached in
the annals of Fairfield sports
last Saturday when the soccer
team nipped Patterson State
College, 2-1. With this uphill
victory, the Stags achieved the
first winning season in the his­tory
of Fairfield University soc­cer.
Their record for the season
was 7-6.
The Stags recovered from .a,
disappointing 4-1 trouncing at
the hands of Stonehill earlier in
the week and came up with
the "must" win. Stonehill won
on a rain-soaked field that left
every player coated with mud.
The lone Stag goal was scored
by Dan Wilcox. Fairfield just
could not mobilize an offense
and made some costly defen­sive
blunders.
Roach, WUcox Combine
Fairfield dominated the first
half of the Patterson State
contest, but was still behind
1-0 late in that half. With
twelve seconds remaining the
Stags gained a corner •kick.
Tim Roach booted the ball in
toward the goal where Dan
Wilcox calmly slammed it past
the goalie oo knot the score.
Fairfield began the second
half in a spirit of exuberance,
with the elusive winning sea­son
within their grasp; the
Stags were not going to let
down. Early in the third quarter
Jack Monahan took the ball in
front of the goal and boomed
it over the goalie's head into
the net to put Fairfield ahead to
stay. At this point, Monahan
was mobbea by his apprecia­tive
teammates.
The Stag defense was impec­cable
the rest of the way.

Stag Gridders 12-7
By WILLIAM A.
D' ALESSANDRO
The young Football Stags,
who have learned to live with
themselves during this 1968
season, experienced just one
more way to lose Saturday, as
they watched LaSalle College
strike back with one minute
and twenty seconds remaining
in the game to steal a 12-7
victory.
The Explorer's winning touch­down
drive began with three
minutes left in the final quarter.
LaSalle went 68 yards in seven
plays, scoring on a refined ally­oop
pass from quarterback
Mac Hickey to 6'2" Don Thur­low
for thirty yards and the
winning points.
Piazza Scores
This blow came less than
thret> minutes after the Stags,
battling to get on the score­board,
scored 13 minutes into
the fourth quarter on a perfect
35 yard pass from Frank
Schultz to Bob Piazza who
raced over from the five. The
touchdown came after a 21 yard
sideline catch by Van Muller.
Kevin Murphy kicked the extra
point which cleraed the bar by
two inches and gave the Stags
a thrilling, but short-lived, 7-6
lead. LaSalle, however, with
the spectre of oblivian facing
their ill-financed Football Club,
delayed that fate by pulling out
their first win in the waning
seconds.
LaSalle Scores First
The Explorers' initial touch­down,
the first since longer than
the oldest fan could remember,
happened in the second quarter
when fullback John Kent took
a flare pass nineteen yards into
the end-zone to give LaSalle a
6-0 lead which stood until the
fireworks started late in the
game.

Mcinerney, and c o u n t 1 e s s
others. In general, it was a
team effort all the way.
Season Reviewed
The season as a whole was
an exciting battle from the out­set.
The Stags scored 33 goals
in all while relinquishing 30 to
their opponents. The top scorers
were Jack Monahan with eight
goals, Dan Wilcox with seven,
and Roland Corbin \vith five;
all are sophomores who will re­turn
next year. Tim Roach led
the Stags in assists with ten.
Two triumphs stand out over
the season. These were a 6-0
pasting of We s tern New
England followed by a 5-0 romp
over Monmouth. These victories
gave the Stags much confidence.
Other big victories were those
over Fordham, 3-2, and St.
Peter's by the score of 5-1.
There were also some dis­appointing
losses. The toughest
loss was to Marist, 3-2, in over­time.
The most outstanding loss
was a crushing 7-0 defeat at the
hands of Fairleigh Dickenson.
The Stags played well in losing
to Eastern Connetcicut, the New
England champions, by the
score of 3-1.
Stars on defense throughout
the year were senior Tom
"Bear" Moylan and sophomore
goalie Gary Dayon. There were
seven sophomores on the start­ing
squad and much promise
for the future is shown. A meet­Ing
will be held this week to
choose captains for next year's
team.

Hockey Club. This past
Friday they completely des­troyed
the Columbia University
Lions by the score of 12-1. The
Stags played their neighboring

where he left off last week at
6:29 of the first period with the
help of Ted Sybertz when he
started the scoring. This was
the first of seven goals which
Monahan was to score in the
game. Two minutes and six
seconds - later Tony Ducomb
scored after being fed by Mon­ahan
and Sybertz. The Ivy Lea­guers
were totally outclassed
during the period, for they man­aged
but three shots to Fair­field's
eighteen.
Stags Domlna.te
Thr second period was played
almost totally in the Columbia
end of the rink, with the Stags
making good on six out of
twenty-seven shots. Monahan
hit again at 4:41. Helping him,
as usual, were Sybertz and Du­comb.
At 5:26 Sybertz stole a
loose pass and scooted in un­molested
to record his first
goal of the game. For the next
seven minutes Jim Monahan
completely dominated the game,
by scoring four times in a row.
At 6:24 he took a pinpoint pass
Monahan then picked up two
unassisted goals by virtue of
his forechecking, when he
picked up loose pucks at 9:50
and 12:23 and ripped the cords
behind the bedazzled Columbia
goal tender. He closed out the
period at 13:03 when he, set
up by Ducomb and Sybertz,
again turned on the red light
behind the Columbian goal.

The lee had barely dried in
the third period when Sybertz
resumed the rout at 0:37 with
assists from Captain Tony Har­tigan
and the ever-present
Monahan. Columbia finally was
able to capitalize on a Fairfield
defensive lapse when Guy La­flamme,
the Fairfield goalie,
was left at the mercy of three
intruders. The goal was scored
by Hamill from Hawco and
Miller.

In last week's intramural play
the contest between Campion 3
and DSP was expectP.d to snap
their season-long first place
deadlock. Instead, their 0-0 tie
served to tighten the already
cluttered League B race. Cam­pion
3 entered last Monday's
game undefeated and untied,
and, more impressively, un­scored
upon. The DSP owed its
share of first place with a
6-0-1 record while Campion 3
boasted a 6-0-0 mark.
The opening kick-off proved
to be almost fatal for DSP, as
Campion 3's Tom Eaton nar­rowly
missed ret\}rning it for a
TD, being stopped by the last
man in his way, Bill "Porker"
Smith, Campion 3 maintained
the momentum imparted by the
return as they constantly press­ed
the DSP's "Doomsday De­fense"
but were unable to score.
Bob Archianni of C 3 inter~
cepted a Chuck Dombeck pass
and C 3 again had good field
position. That series of downs
ended just short of the goal line
and DSP took over.
