Ad Hoc Committee The nursing proposal was accepted following the recommendation of an ad hoc faculty committee, which has been working with Dr. John A Barone, vice-president for Planning. This favorable motion was based on meetings with numerous c oil e g e administrators, members of professional and accrediting associations, hospital administrators and members of the medical profession. Consideration of the question of co-education began in the University community two years ago. Following a consensus recommendation by faculty and students, the University's Board of Trustees issued a statement in May, 1967 endorsing the principle of joint education of men and women and recommendi·ng that the administration seek a coordinate women's college to join with Fairfield.

Nun~ Needs This ever increasing need for degree nurses has been intensified by the continual sophistication of medicine, by the multiplication of social and community problems associated with better J¥dical care for all citizens, by the expansion of research programs, by the demands for competent personnel prepared to assume supervisory roles in hospital administration, and by the existing void of qualified faculty members for nursing programs. Dr. Barone pointed out that at present there are only three baccalaureate nursing programs in the state and they are not able to till the future need for college trained nurses. He went on to say that "at this time one major hospital in the state can promise to employ every degree graduate in next year's aggregate commencement class of nurses. The probll';n today is serious; tomorrow it will be overbearin~." "We have designed our problem to alleviate this deficiency for college trained nursing personnel who are capable of dealing with the increasingly complex problems of medical care, community relations, and hospital administration," explained the vice-president. This cooperative venture will provide a program of substantial academic value as well as sound medical and pragmatic preparation. Arrangements with regard to curriculum, clinical programS and general degree requirements will be worked out by the appropriate faeulty committees and depax:tments of the University and representatives of the cooperating hospitals. The administrators of these hospitals will also assist in the recruiting and placement of students.

K. of C. Sponsors SDS Discussion By .JOSEPH GEBIO The Knights of Columbus recently sponsored a meeting at whieh two members of the Students for a Democratic Society, Kevin Ke-lley and Bob Ellis, discussed the goals of SDS at Fairfield. They also considered the incidents at Chicago and Columbia. Kevin Kelley sald there are no specific goals, since SDS is not an ideological group, but a general protest against the system. Action would be taken by SDS if and when the need arises. One problem SDS is concerned with is the redistribution of wealth in America. No plans have been made as to a method of redistribution, but the welfare system would be rejected because of its "obvious ineffectiveness." One fallure of the SDS, Mr. Kelley felt, is a lack of contact with labor, partly because it is concentrated on campus, partly because labor has achieved Its goals and does not look for Suggests Changes the last issue of 'l'be Sta&', Mr. Kelley replied that, "Mr. Howe gave a general outline of the most blatant needs for academic reform such as the required courses which are forced down your throat." He continued saying that, "in the Academic Forum we can go into specifics of course curriculum. We are trying to make the curriculum of the student's major more relevant tO him." Mr. Kelley noted that be is in the process of compiling data on course curriculum of other institutions. He hopes to make "some concrete proposals before Christmas." Dr. Rosivach, professor of classics, "is preparing a faculty viewpoint" on course curriculum changes and Mr. K~lley stated, "We will consult with him on our proposals." Mr. Kelley stressed the fact that the curriculum changes have been proposed for the last two years wihtout a great deal of success. New ideas and suggestions are needed. Kevin Kelley can be contacted through Box 819 in the Campus Center. new plans, and is not concerned with social justice. Thus SDS wants to convince the upper middle class that, "It is to their benefit to let others have money." Here is another fallure, seen through the fear of the white backlash vote for Wallace.

It began with the league for Industrial Democracy, which bad recently expanded to include students. After working in the League for two years, SDS split because of dissatisfaction with the system. SDS was then a mod· erate group, working for Johnson and civil rights. It became militant becauae it was "forced to." Johnson went from "peace candidate to hawk," and after working on the local level, they found they were either being duped by the men they worked for, or the people didn't want these men in office. Seeing the faults in the system - seniority rule in Congress, where old men who really don't know what's happening control important committees; ghettoes; Vietnam - SDS felt it bad to work outside the system.

This action is being carried out to support the consumer boycott of the United Farmworkers Organizing Committee's {AFL-CIO). which is trying to lift the migrant farmworkers of California out of poverty by providing them with the option of unionization. The picketing is aimed at coercing the large food chains to cease the sale cf California table grapes and to convince customers, not only to refrain from purchasing such grapes, but to refuse their business to these stores. BecoplUOD. Befuaed The movement began in September 1965 when the Union, organized by a migrant worker named Caesar Chavez, struck the grape growers of Delano California. This job action was precipitated by the growers repeated refusals to discuss recognition of a farm worers union. The growers knew that they were secure in their refusal, since even though the union represented a clear majority of the workers, it could not take advantage of the election procedures under the National Labor Relations Act because this act specifically excludes agricultural workers from coverage. Largely as a result of this exc 1 u s i o n, California migrant workers are among the most poverty stricken groups in America's working force. Average annual earnings for adult male workers in 1965 were $1,918.00 (For families approx. $3,000.00) Their life expectancy is 49 years. Death and disease rates are far bieber than the national dverage: % bJcher thaD Datloaal rate Infant mortality 125% Maternal mortality 125% Influenza and pneumonia 200% TB and other infectious diseases Accidents Sale• Beducttoa It is hoped that the boycott will cause a drastic reduction in sales and thus force the farm owners to permltt elections which will determine whether the workers are represented by Chavez's union, another union, or no union at all. The UFWOC already has won nine contracts, mostly with wine grape growers. These victories are due more to the success of consumer boycotts than to the pressure of the strike. Provisions of the nine contracts: raised wages; provided grievance procedures; and provosion for overtime pay, job security, rest periods, health insurance, holidays and vacations with pay and other benefits. All contracts include NO STRIKE clauses. Due to the continued r esistence ot large growers of table grapes, the nation wide boycott has been focused solely agalnst them. Anyone interested in contributing time or funds to the boycott are urged to call 1-322-5549 or to contact Peter Hearn, box 672 or Grape Boycott c/o Box D. For anyone interested in devoting time to picket offending stores, there will be cars leaving from the Campus Center at 3:00. Revived Ski Club Plans Winter Events By .JOHN ROBERTO After one year of inactivity the Ski Club at F·airfield has thrown, but this was played up by Mayor Daley. Cops were taunted, but breaking open heads is not a rational response." Bob Ellis, talking about Columbia's "disturbance," listed four causes: 1) the gym in Harlem; 2) Columbia's connection with defense grants; 3) the president's isolation from the students; 4) the suspension of students and the jailing of one after a demonstration. SDS took over one building until lines of communications between administration and students were reopened. This movement snowballed: the blacks wanted a separate demonstration, and they took over Hamilton Hall, kicking out the whites. The whites then took over Low Library. To the argument that a minority had no right to take over a university and harm a majority, SDS answers that Columbia took rights away from Harlem. Columbia did have alternatives - building upward rather than ou~ ward. which they are presently doing. been revived under the leadership of Jay McDermott, Tom Salamone, Bob O'Hern and Father Thomas Loughran, S.J. An organizational meeting was held one month ·ago and 23 prospective memb ers attended. Meetings are held when ever the need arises for all to meet. The Ski Club is currently up for recognition by the Administration and Student Government. Following the last meeting, the Ski Club began to make plans for the 1968-69 skiing season. Their biggest project of the year will be a three day skiing vacation to Lune Mountain, IJncoln, New Hampshire during semester break, January 26-29. The entire trip including breakfast dinner, and sld1ng ticket will cost between $65-70. It is open to all members and student of Falrfield. Also invited are many girl's schools and other ski clubs in the Lune Mt. area. The Ski Club owns their own lodge at Lune Mt. wbere they will sponsor mixers and parties with other clubs.

Ruane, ''71, Amendment Bill Proponent "Students should have the power of self-detennination over their private lives and the conduct of their own eroup.llving" Lewla B. Mayhew, President American ANoclatlon for H!gher Education (as quoted In Time Magadne) nus statement by one of the foremost educators in America succintly summarizes the rationale for the events occuring in the Student Legislature in the past weeks, especially in regard to the proposed amendment to Article VI of the present Student Association Constitution. Often in public and in private the proponents of this amendment have been castlgaed as: "rash", "refusing the responsibility that comes with power'', "illogical", and "the proponents of unconstitutional procedure". These terms a.re grossly inaccurate; they seek to cloud the issue with emotional verbalisms. I hope that the following will help clear the air of any misconceptions. In brief, the amendment calls for the striking of the phrase. "They (future constitutions) must then be recommended by the Dean of the College to the President of the University", and the subsequnt wording "Upon approval of the President". In no way does this amendment infringe upon the functions of the Student Government. Rather, it serves to increase the power and the intluence of the Government. The key to this controversy is the question of the nature of the Government. Until recently, the Government appeared to consider itself as the voice of the student association on the matters directly concerning them. It possessed the power of mere "recommendation" to the Administration on the opinions, thoughts and grievances of the student body. Many interested students have attempted to change this concept by actively confronting the Government, as in the recent dress controversy. Now they are attempting this change through entirely legal means. Such a reversion from extra-governmental to intra-governmental action must be commended. Co-existent with the nature of the Government was the nature of its Constitution. Since it had no rw power to decide effectively in its own realm, the Constitution became a handbook of committees and rules of procedure. It took no new directions as to the rights of the stude.nts; it remained a novelty surpassed only by Robert's Rules. The nature of the Government (i.e. the Legislature) has changed. It 1& giving "a just representation in the affairs of the designated government of that community." The majority of the legislators feel that the student should have the abillty to influence these decisions that directly concern him. Parietal hours, dress regulations and such do not affect the Administration as much as they affect the students. For the Administration they are social safeguards, based on the asJumption that the Fairfield student is immature. By passage of the amendment (and · the subsequent adoption of the Constitution intact, devoid of meaningful change by the Administration), the student does have the ability to choose the codes that affect his life on this campus. They are the rights granted to him by his parents when they allowed their son to live away from home. Indeed, they are the rights basic to man's nature. For the Administration to usurp these rights, or to dismiss them for their own protection as an institution is contrary to their oft-quoted phrase "in loco parentis''. Rather, they assume the character of "in loco del". The op~nents of this amendment will state two objections: first, that the amendment breaks a contract with the Administration, and second, a student conititution without the approval of the Administration is valueless. I cannot emphasize enough that a contract must be between equals. The Ad.nllnistration and the Faculty dictate the policy of their respective segments. Let us dictate ours. They determine the range of their powers and the proper use of such power. Let us do likewise. Let us decide on the matters concerning the student, giving ample consideration to the opinions of the Faculty and the Administration. Then may we turn our attention to the matters which involve the other segments of the University. To 'say that a constitution is invalid because of the lack of Administration ap. Vandalism Rise Causes Concern By GEORGE BBITrON . "I don't know what to do about it," Mr. Robert K. Gnffin, Dean of Student Services, commented concerning the recent rise of vandalism on the campus particularly on the dark, parking lots near the New Dorm. In the past few weeks, sev- By .James R. Cunningham, '69 Minority Leader - Student Legialature, Chalnnan - Flnanclal Committee In our discussions concerning the proposed amendment to Article Six of the Student Government Constitution, I believe it helpful to remove all irrational emotionalism and attempt to get to the basic realities involved. Simply, the facts of the issue revolve around three major considerations. 1. The passage or rejection of the amendment is a vote against or for the spirit of "tri-partiteism" here at Fairfield. The basic thrust of the past and present Government administrations has been and still is toward this highly worthwhile goal of integrating all three spheres of our university into a united front of comon action, based upon mutual understanding with the rights of all considered. Only if we are willing to reason together about the great problems facing this campus can serious and effective results accrue. Our major success can occur only if decisions are implemented in a real way, concretely and seriously, and this comes from action taken trilaterally, not simply unilaterally by either the student body or the administration. Singular action by any side leads ultimately to an undesirable confrontation in which neither side is the winner. 2. It must be remembered that Article Six of the present Constitution gives the administration the power to approve or reject only future, new constitutions and by-laws. The latter by-laws are a total obsolesence, since no useful governmental constitution uses them, as they are r eserved for orgaizational characters primarily. Thus, in reality we are speaking about only new constitutions as requiring administrative approval. It is the very nature of a constitution that it is never unilateral, since it is made between the students, who possess a cerain degree of power, and the administration, who also have power with the attendant right to exercise it. Our present Constitution was freely agreed to with this fact in mind, with this fact clearlY stated in Article Six. We display a rather gross lack of honesty and sincerity by attempting to abrogate singularly what is in essence a pluralistic document. Again, let us be reminded that the approval called for in the presently binding Article Six refers only to new constitutions and does not even mention the ordinary acts of the Government: acts, bills or decrees. All these actions are not placed under the finalization of the administration, either explicitly or implicitly. 3. We must finally wake up to the reality of the situation. We do not have the power to force the administration to accept our breach of contract by the pasage of a piece of paper with so mariy words written upon it. Further, we have even less power in trying to enforce our unilateral decrees, once passed, and in making them real in the lives of students. We are not the only group at this university, The two other branches, which are vitally important, have equal rights; rights which must be protected if all of us are to be truly, justly and fairly treated by the others. The presentation of a 'fait accompli' to any segment of our community is the apotheosis of injustice, frustration and hopelessness. In closing, let me urge all students to think seriously about the proposed constitutional amendment, because it is of very great importance for the very real, daily lives of all of us. Blatant emotional.ism, sweeping generalities and the bandwagon psychology of trying to win empty facades of victory by throwing this amendment up in the face of the administration simply for the sake of doing so, have no place in a mature decision. The best method of success in the effort of all of us to radically affect policy in a real way is the spirit of mutually benevolent "tri-partiteism", which is best served by voting NO on the proposed constitutional amendment to Article Six of the Student Government Constitution. proval is to assent to a hierarchical structure of the University, with the Administration at the peak, followed by the Faculty, and then the Students. To ask for approval is to admit that the students are of least concern- second to the good name of the University and the well-being of the Faculty. This cannot be accepted. If the Students do not recognize themselves as the most important segment of the University, do they expect the Administration to do so? I exhort the members of the Student Association to vote "yes" on the amendme. nt. It can only serve to advance the responsibilities of the student. Isn't it about time that we learned to charter our own course?

Among the numbers which the Fairfield University Glee Club will perform includes something for everyone's musical taste. Numbers will range from "Marne" and "Camelot" to the rousing "Battle Hymn of the Republic' 'and "The Men in Red." Spirituals and religious numbers such as "Alleluia" and "Set Down Servant" or the "Last Words of David" are al· ways well received. Light Note Adding a light note to the concert will be performances by the Campus Minstrels and Bensonians. The Campus Min· strels are show-stoppers in every sense of the word. Com· posed of 14 members from the club, their zany antics will add that certain something which has made them a traditional part of concerts. The Bensonians' delightful harmony with a collegiate tlair will further augment the program 'with barbershop style, lyric surprises, and fresh Interpretations. The Saint Joseph College Chorale under the direction of Dr. Elmer M. Hintz will perfonn such numbers as "Waters Ripple and Flow," "See the Gipsies" and '"11le Sleep That Flits a Baby's Eye." Their specialty group, the Saint Joseph College Sextette, will pertonn "Bits of Broadway." The combined clubs will sing '"11le Omnipotence" and "Gonna Build A Mountain." A capacl1y audience is ex-pected when the AmbassadoN of Song commence their twentysecond season. Students as well as their parents and friends are cordially invited to attend this free concert - a Sunday afternoon of musical enjoyment is promised. This year the club will perform approximately 13 concerts, and for the first time will travel to the midwest for engagements in Detroit and Chicago. Most of the other performances of the club will be given in the Connecticut, Massachusetts, and New York areas. Officers Officers for the 1968-69 season include: George L. Holmes, '69, President; William J. Brower, '69, Vice President; Emmett T. Casy, '70, Secretary; Thomas E. Dybick, '70, Treas· urer; Nelson A. Bondhus, '69, Accompanist, and Kevin R.

Herald Slants Security Story By COLIN KILEY "Completely slanted," was the comment given by Mr. Arno Zeyn, Director of Operations at Fairfield in regards to an article in the Sunday Herald which ;aid "Former New ~aven Police Chief Francis V. McManus may come o ~t of retireme.nt to hea:d up the newlycreated security staff at Fairfield Umversity." Mr. Donahue, Vice-President of University Relations concurred saying that "the story had no basis at all. Fairfield University has not made any arrangements with Mr. McManus to head this position, nor had it been decided that there would be such a position." Security Division "McManus," the Herald article continued, "has been offered the job at the J esuit school and has been aiding uni-versity officials in setting up a drawing board for the proposed security division." It went on to say that "the former police chief, who retired last March as head of the New Haven department, will serve as a consultant in establishing the Fairfield U. security force and will head that unit."

The phone rang and Alfonso picked it up, "Hello, yes, ~ello Pablo, yes Pablo, yes, I know Pablo, but .... Yes Pablo, Goodby Pablo." Alfonso was quiet for a long tUne, then he ftnal.ly spoke, ''1bings they do not go well with Pablo. Things, my brother, do not go well with us. Things, they do not go well at all. The forces ot the Bureaucratinalles are at the gates of the city. They have united forces with the Insurrectionalles inside of the city. We are doomed. The Bureaucratinalles bring many papers and men who read the books of law. They say that we have done too much business with the Federalles in the capital. They say that we do not own our city, Roberto. They have promised the Insurrectionalles in the populace the reforms that they desire. They both say that we must be thrown from power. Civil War, it is a bad thing." ''nlis is so, my brother." spoke Roberto. "Do you bear the city chimes? The bell I think that it tolls for me, it tolls for all of Ul." The phone rang again and after a long conversation Alfonso placed the phone on the receiver. Looking quite dejected, he again glanced out of the window and spoke. ''1be weather, it is bad still. Pablo, he bas the fear." "On no, my brother, this is too much of a burden to bear," replied Roberto and continued, "Alfonso, I think I, too, have the tear." "Yes Roberto, but that is not the worst of it. The Insurrectionalles now control the lower city and the Bureaucratinalles are besieging the fortress on the bill. How horrible this is. I remember when Pablo was the friend of the Insurrectionalles and promised them many reforms. I remember when be was the friend of the Bureaucratinalles and feasted them at the ll Progresso banquet. I remember when be was the friend of the Federalles and received money from them. He even treated the Insurrectionalles as in place of a father. Roberto, do you remember this man? Pablo is no longer he. Pablo, be bas the fear. The govemment bas collapsed. We have been instructed to flee to the fortress city of Wooster, with all of our possessions but with none of those of the Federalles." "But what of our leader Pablo?" spoke Roberto. "He is a prisoner, my brother." said Alfonso. "Oh no, replied Roberto, "is be the prisoner of the Insurrectionalles or of the Bureaucrationalles?" "Neither my brother, spoke Alfonso, Pablo is the prisoner of the Anarchistinalles. He is being held captive in his own office. They have, it seems, sat in. They say that they do not want Pablo to ftee and they do not want him to stay." "What of the Anarcbistinalles, Alfonso? I do not understand them." "They are of a bad sort my brother. They do not like the Federalles. They do not like the Bureaucratinalles. They do not like us. They do not like each other. They cannot decide who is worse, the Federalles or the Bureaucratinalles. They do not want either o! them to govern the city, and they do not want to govern it themselves. They say that they want the Insurrectionalles to govern themselves, and this is why they are called the Anarcbistinalles, I think." "Yes my brother," said Roberto, "but we must ftee.

Each college and university in New England is permitted to nominate two students for the fellowship. From these many nominationa ten students are selected. This year Fair6eld Univer· sity had the honor of having both its nominees being named Fellowship recipients. A.Dnaal OOilveaUoa The New England Psychological Association, the rerfonal branch of the American Psychological Association, holds an annual Thanksgiving convention at which papers are presented and the te.n honorary fellow· ships are awarded. Although no pecuniary reward or scholarship is coneeted with this honorary fellowsh\p, it is a recognition by a croup of professional psychologists of a s t u d e n t ' a undergraduate acbievem~tac and o! the potential for future work in tbe fteld of ps~chology. Unique Prorram \ Fairfield has a unique physiological program; in fact, it is so innovative that it is not even found on most graduate levela o! study. The program utilizes an advanced laboratory procedure which enables the student to learn and perfonn the rudi· ments of basic neurosurgical experiments on rats and other laboratory animals. Under this advanced system students are taught how to produce selective lesions in discrete areas of rats' brains followed by behavioral testing (e.g. learning in a maze). Students then undertake a histological analysis of the locus and extent of the brain lesion by cutting very thin sections through the limits of the brai.n lesion area and staining them with basic dies.

In it was propaganda from the Anny ROTC. They wanted me; I was flattered. In fact I was so flattered I wanted to bum It immediately but my better judgment got hold of me and I decided to wa'lt until I got home. Some friends were coming over ttlat night and I thought having a burning might be fun and appropriately sacrilegious; It was Halloween. But by the time. I'd gotten home I'd forgotten about the brochure and my origmal intentions. I have not been able, however, to forget what tht! brochure said. The pamphlet began, "'l1le U.S. Army knows leaders are made, not born." Whether intentional on the anny•s part or not, this sentence sounds rather Sartrian. Jean Paul Sartre, French eldstentialist philosopher, talks about basically the same idea of self-realization, yet in much more confused terms and with no desire to be elitist. He too feels that after birth man is nothing more than what he makes of himself. Philosophically, Sartre begins with a universe of nothingness. Out of all this nothingness man is the only thing that is able to deftne its being. Man is able to create his essence because he has the essential, ultimate, and ftnal freedom of being able to say no to nothingness; to Sartre freedom is the touchstone of all human dignity. When man says no to the nothingness of the universe, he begins to realize himself. Man makes something of his life by deciding to disassosiate himself from nothingness. In short, Sartre feels man gets out of lite what he responsibly puts into it. · Sartre and the United States Anny. Somehow coupling these two because of similarity In statement goes well beyond the traditional bounds of fate, strange bedfellows, and all that other gibberish. lb' seeing their persuasions in action, the Anny presently in Vietnkm, and Sartre a few years back condemning their presence In Vietnam, it Is easy to see that somewhere In their verbal likeness there lies a fundamental fraud. My guess would be it lies with the Army. Wh~n Sartre talks about man creating value In his life through making decisions, he is talking about a continual process. He realizes that as man becomes a man through deciding, each decision he makes becomes more Important. He acknowledges that man cannot a1ford to stop deciding for himself. The Army, on the other hand, by Its very nature demand'~ that a man, .rter deciding to enter its ranks, suspend the decialcm-members. Sartre does not believe In collective genius, and thereby would brand this kind of existence as living In ba4 faith. Many, however, probably cll.sagree with me violently about the above paragraph, and would like to have me court martialed for having written it. They defend their posltien by insisting that a lack of deciaion-maklng opportunities may be the case when one is a private, but Is certainly not true when one Is an officer. After all, they claim, officers are the "ones" who have to decide not only for themselves, but for all the men they command; tlili. Is more responsibility than any pointy-headed, Communist, atheist, french philosopher would ever dare to uaume. And on this point I would have to agree. For one, Sartre would never want to have any part of a killing machine, no matter how far reaching his clecisions as a killer might be. The thrust of Sartrlan philosophy Is a humanitarian, not a predatory one. When the army put In Its pamphlet that "The training Is specifically designed to place candidates under beayy physical, mental, and emotional pressures of simulated war conditions," it seems to me, from Its past record, that it Is telling the truth. The Army says Its training is designed to teach a man how to ftght and kill Of course they explain away the.ir actions and existence under the guise of preserving world peace, but this should fool no one. To "kill for peace" destroys the sense and beauty cf peace. Secondly, Sartre would deny that the decisions made by a commander of a platoon are actually his. The brochure explains that once one enters Officers' Training he is aubject to a ten month training program. 'nle first eight weeks are basic combat tramtng. The nine weeks that follow are some kind of advanced training. The remainder of the ten months Is naturally .supposed to asaum~ a much higher level of education. whatever that means In tbe army. All of which evidence, that once a candidate enters, his mind becomes army property tor ten months. This length of time allows those In charge of indoctrination to do their job thoroughly in demonstrating to the candidate what ia "right" and thereby what he should do. After this ten month ordeal, nobody's mind can remain completely his own. Sartre would prefer keeping his own mind, even at the expense of power. But then again, many army devotees would rejoin that being an officer in the United States Army has its advantages. They are: 1. belonging to the oJricers' club, 2. tree medical care, 3. tree legal aid and advice, 4. 30 days paid vacation, 5. a higher pay scale (a higher pay than other army men, that Is), and most important of all 6. being able to "meet people of high calibre and s1mllii.r interests." Having these last points brought to his attentioQ Sartre mleht very well reconsider his pait judgments concerning tbe army. The only stumbling block to this might be, that in the true equalitarian spirit, Sartre could not help but ask, with an opportunity so full of advantage., why Is the Army ROTC FOR MEN ONLYT THE STAG Page .Seven Cooperating Schools Issue Statements Over Coed Plans EDITOR'S NOTE: The f ollowtag are excerpta from tbe at:atementa luued by the hoepltall cooperat.tac with Fall'· Aeld UDlvenUy ID the decree nunlllg' procram. Greenwich Bo.pltal The Greenwich Hospital is pleased to be a part of the program, while at the same time continuing its own well established three-year diploma pro-gram. The Greenwich Hospital recognizes that the demands of modem hospital care can be even further served by a baccalaureate program in nursing. Advances In technology, Improvements in preventive measures, the ability to sustain life in heretofore hopeless situations - all these have created an environment that asks more of the practicing nurse than ever before. A strong background in the sciences will make her more adept at working with the sophisticated equipment and new techniques that surround her now and that will continue to be developed in the future. A strong background in the humanities will give her the insights and the breadth of judgment that she will need to rely on every day of her working life. And an academic setting in which she can know and observe students in other disciplines, will give her knowledge of people, and of the world, that can only work to her advantage in administering bedside care. The program promises not only to raise the level of bedside nursing, but to provide p~ fessional nurses who can lead and direct the modern nursing team that bas evolved out of the new concepts of medical care. It will also make available a larger group of well qualified nurses who can advance to the next higher professional degree. And, especially important, it may encourage many nurses to become teachers and ftll a serious need that exists in nursing education in the state. Stamford Ro.pltal a College education will avail themselves of this opportunity to receive a degree in nursing rather than pursuing a degree in another allied field. The baccalaureate program will assist In preparing additional faculty members and. it will enable them to move more quickly into a masters program. The more people that are prepared on the college level, the more rapidly students could be prepared on the diploma, practical nurse, and nurse aide level thereby helping to alleviate the nursing shortage. St. Joseph's Hospital is able to offer Its clinical facilities for clin.ical experience in implementing the academic phase of the program. The educational tone of the Hospital Is enhanced with a nursing program at this level. The presence of student nurses keeps everyone on the alert. It Is a community responsibility to provide nurses. The Hospital will make a contribution to the community by participating in the program and thereby Increasing the number of nursing personneL Skiers Organize Caatuaed from Pace J are also plannillg one or two trips to Catamount Mt. and Mt.

The Ski Club has also sent away for skiing movies from the Pepsi · Company and next year plans to charge admission for skiing films and speakers. According to Jay MacDermott, an officer of the club, "The Ski Club is the thing for skUng lovers and also those who are not experts at the sport.

As a result I often walk through parts of the campus during my lunch break or to catch my bus. This has helped me to retain a contact, although remote, with campus lJfe and student unrest. Last week the G.W.U. campus chapter of the Students for a Democratic Society and the D.C. PolJce Department clashed on campus. The enclosed editorial appeared in the G.W.U. student newspaper, 'l'tte Batcbet. It was written by Paul Panitz, Editor-In-chief. Perhaps It would be of interest to Fairfield University students. Slacerely, loba Bllnau, Pb.D. -'-oe, Prof. of BloloD' THE EDITORIAL SDS bu ftDally fOUDcl Ita eollfroatatton. For more UlaD a moatb, GW's SDS dlapter bu been eearebbll' for an laue, aay luue, to nee u Ita ...... for stadellt enpport and Dltlmate confrontation. The group never foond an Issue wlthbl the UDiveNity, and not until Tueeday afterDOOR did It ftnd suitable substitutes. That substitute was the irrational and brutal actions of a number of DC polleemen who hurled themselves Into a l'enerally peaceful crowd on G St. They Clllteulbly were maida&' arrests, but they cut swaths of Innocent victims out of tbelr paths as If student. were merely wheat In a fteld. The police at.o made arrest. on lucllerous char&'es - arre8UDI' for Uttering atudenta who threw peper airplanes. And yet, to be fair to tbe poUce, It must be aid tbat the commanding officers were waUdDK up and down the Une, trying to calm tbe1r men, and prevent them from over-reacUDg to the constant provocations. It wu only a smaD number who stepped out of llDe, but they served to give the entire force a poor Image. That SDSeN were provoldn&' the ponce Is beyond question, SDS leaders wanted them to react and to spUt head., and the pollee, Uke tools, responded admirably to tbel.r \Wahes. The abuse taken by the pollee waa relatively minor, however, and served to expose Ul-cUsclpllne and poor tralnlng. Their reactions were far In excess Of the provocations.

Firstly, there has been absolutely no attempt on the part of the club to present the necessary documents to allow the Legislature to appropriate any funds to them. A list of total membership, supporting evidence of where the money will be spent, and the proposing of the appropriation by a legislator are all necessary even before consideration of a grant can occur by the Financial Committee. Secondly, the claims that appropriate funds are not being utilized Is totally false. The $3,000 student loau fund is presently being used on a daily baSis with already about $1,000 expended. The $4.000 of the Social Department has also been spent as a down payment for the Peter, Paul, and Mary concert. This wlll hopefully return, but it will be used shortly thereafter to plan for another concert. The $3,400 of the Activities Department is being used for speakers already contracted for and further for free busses, the latest of which have_ ~n used to benefit the Hockey Club by transporting ticket-buying spectators to the Bridgeport Wonderland of Ice. Further, let me say that the idea that an organization must receive at least as much money as they paid to the Student Government is rather absurd, since one Is expected to pay his Activity Fee regardless of his association with any particular club. This money is to support the Government, not to be doled out to every organization on campus. If this were the case, the Government would be bankrupt in a few days. It is hoped that in the future we might be able to help the Hockey Club more, but in our present financial condition there is little or no funds to be distributed. With the possibility of greater payment of Activity Fees, we would be most happy to give this fine organization as much money as possible. l!llncerely, lames B. Cun.nl.ngham Flnanclal Committee Chairman • • • Thanks, But .. . To th Editor: We would like to thank M.rs. Brown for taking the time on Thursday afternoon (November 21) to acquaint us with the running of the bookstore. Her gracious assistance enabled us to understand the problems confronting the bookstore. We fotmd that the exorbitant prices on books are actually demanded by the publishing companies. These prices are the same for the Yale University Co-op and the Sacred Heart University Book Store. The problem, therefore, lies in the publisher's price setting. We also found Mrs. Brown very receptive to any requests for products not appearing on the sl\elves. For her patience and understanding we would sincerely like to thank Mrs. Brown. However, the assumption that it would not be feasible for the Student Government to run the bookstore is not entirely true. Yes, pennanent help would be necessary, but it is conceivable that the Student Government could replace the company that now has the concession. The initial cost and operating procedures required for such a venture should be (Ooatlaaed OD Pa&'e 10) A Matter of Princip_le This Wednesday the students of this university will be voting on an amendment to the Student Government Constitution that could prove to be a revolutionary step in revamping this nation's educational system. The passage of this amendment, which provides for student ratification of future student constitutions, would be the first concrete implementation of the principle of atudent power. According to this principle, there are certain areas that are solely of student concern. These areas, of course, pertain to the student's private life. Curfews, sign-ins, parietals, and dress are examples of some areas of concern in which the faculty and administration have no right to meddle. Course requirements, class cuts, and implementation of certain marking systems are examples of areas that concern all three segments of the university. In effect, exponents of the student power principle are asking not for a free hand in running all aspects of the university, but simply for the right to have final say in matters concerning their private lives, and an eQual voice in matters that concern the administration, faculty, and themselves. We cannot support this principle too strongly. Due to legislative bungling in the Student Government, the amendment was not put on the ballot in the recent election. The decision was made by the amendment's proponents and opponents supposedly to give each side more time to present their case to the stude?t ~ody. We know of no such drive to educate the student body on ~~us ISsue and feel that the move was the direct result of petty pohtical maneuvers on the part of both sides. Th~ amend!Jlent's oppon~nts, no doubt, feel that if the voter turnout lS poor., Its passage will be meaningless. On the other hand, the amendments proponents feel that because the leftist activities on campus outnumb~r t~eir ideologica.l counterparts, a poor turnoul would mean certam VIctory. Both attitudes represent a flagrant disregard for general student opinion. Now the ques~on is up to you. Unfortunately. students here do not have a reputation for standing on principles. Pragmatic stagi~m runs ra~pant e.ven all)o_ng t~e "conscientious" left. Rebellion in the past agamst this admmistrabon's paternalistic policies has occurred only when the students' liquor or sex lives have been threatened. b . All that can change now. Perhaps the adminstration will even e Impressed by a show of student initiative At any rate we can h be sure that there ~ill be no stock responses be~ause student initiative as never been an 1ssue here.

The recent series of thefts that has been taking place in and around the various campus parking lots is only one more reason why the security force of this university needs drastic revision. We cannot understand how the present security force has been unable to surprise the culprits even once, despite the fact that the breaks are numerous enough for even an unsuspecting stroller to unknowingly chance upon such an attempt. While the security force has an extremely poor record of apprehending those who threaten our security, they have an unblemished record of implementing ambitious ticket-blitzes to insure the security of the businessmen's Loyola parking spaces. We wonder whether they see their function here as primarily to insure our security or that of administrative employees. The parking lot behind Campion Hall and the New Dorm last week was the scene of the most expensive break to date. The theft of $200 worth of auto accessories might have been prevented had Mr. Griffin allowed the student involved to park his car in front of Campion where there are lights. The same student had been refused such permission two weeks earlier in a talk with Mr. Griffin in which the former expressed concern over the lack of parking lights in the area. The lights in this lot will go up eventually, we suppose, but in the meantime is the administration ready to assume responsibility for the security of student vehicles? We hope so. We suggest that the administration take a close look at the effectiveness of their "security" force and take immediate steps to remedy the situation. In the meantime we urge all students who own cars to disregard their assigned lots and park their cars where they feel they will be afforded the most protection. If the administration refuses to accept responsibility for our cars it thereby cedes its right to regulate OQI' parking. ,., .... _ E C L E.CT I C Some people at Fairtleld would like to see a change. That's nice. But there is an institution involved that Is working on traditional grounds, and it has a built in right to do so unless the tradition is changed from within. So the ultimatum becomes cleer once this is remembered: It is necessary to work from within an existing establishment or bid adieu. The United States has been in error and other countries have been right, (lest we forget there are other oountries and they exist too), and so on it goes that certain people and universities have been wrong while others have been correct. It has been said that when one knows what his problems are he is half way to solving them, and there are problems that certain Institutions have that they do not know they have. It remains for us to discover the prot>. !ems, to seek for their discovery, and to listen to those that have discovered. Problems are hidden things that slowly kill us, and sometimes we do not know when it is we die. One of the things that we must cope with is the unfortunate situation that things cannot be changed for the better health of us all. Change that comes too slowly often comes too late even though it brings token dustpans along for the dust. Also, change that comes too suddenly can be irrevocably damaging and its very rashness be its tombstone. These are the elements which we must sift. A pleasure loving society cannot afford not to think. Thinking is its only survival kit. Be careful not to "judge" new thought too quickly unless you intend to be judged by the new thinkers, and maybe left for your impetuosity to rot. Pleasure loving and complacency comes naturally. It is only thinking that comes rationally and is it thinking that we do? There is a problem that C. P. Snow has pointed at recently from a rostrum at Westminster College in Fulton, Missouri. The problem which we must grasp is that of world famine in the 1980's unless the following are met: 1. A concerted effort by the rich countries to produce food, money, technical assist~ce for the poor of the world. 2. An etfort by the poor countries themselves on the lines of India and Pakistan to revolutionize their food production. 3.An etfort by the poor countries - with all the assistancP that can be provided - to reduce or stop their population increase, with a corresponding reduction in the population increase in the rich countries. This is his ultimatum and one of a statesman, novelist, philosopher, and scientist. It is the Malthus theory again, but old cliches have a way of popping up once more, and Snow says that unless these points are met, "Many millions of people in the • poor countries are going to starve to death before our eyes, or to complete the domestic picture, we shall see them doing so upon our television sets." He continues saying, "One hears young people asking for a cause." I might add, "Does one?" But anyway, ne gives it to- us: "It is the duty of all the rest of us, and perhaps most of all of the generations which are going to live in what is now the future, to keep before the world its long term fate. Peace. Food. No more people than the earth can take. That is the cause." Yes, it is a cause, and also our duty, but no one likes that word. It means effort and how many people like to exert themselves on something cooperative today? Most people only have time to devote to self, and that really is not very devotional. Time must be taken on both short and long range to cope cooperatively with problems that are not on the individual level today, but unless we face them on a cooperative level soon they will be on our individual doorsteps tomorrow with sickle in hand. The grim reaper will take his due from each of us individually unless such problems as world famine be met now cooperatively, and between the nations of the world, and between the town councils in the states, and between universities the world wide, and between roommates. (and other combinations, you might think of.) C. P. Snow foresees three end results If thll ultimatum is not met. They are: 1. That the superpowers will continue their arms race and famine will take charge. 2. That agricultural science will give mankind a generation's breathing space to think things over. 3. That the world will break out of the seige of clique or individualistic selfish thinking to make the sacrifices necessary to avert disaster. The "sacrifices necessary" are the three points Hsted before. It remains for us to make the "third future" a possibility which C. P. Snow sadly doubts will come to pass. We must rationally consider his three steps and put an end to our own individual cliques, our country's internal break up, and the world's common disunity so that working cooperatively we shall be able to solve. this the world's first problem. For the choice (as are most) la: Uve or die. THE STAG December 2, 1961 More Letters to the Editor Ooetbulecl t:roaa hp I investigated before beine rejected. It is possible that this particular Student Government is not now, and never will be, capable of running the bookstore. If so, let us then search for other means of financially aiding the Government. Perhaps running the game room would be an alternative. Our main contention is that the Fairfield University Student Government must be financially independent in order to achieve its goals. We suggest that Mr. Howe look into the possibilities available to make the Student Government a power in its own right Tbomaa L ConNy, ''Jl IUchard F. MlllteUo, '11 • • • Rugger' s Reply To the Editor: In Shaun Harrington's column concerning the Fairfield Rugby Club which appeared in last weeks Stag, he asked what motivates the ruggers, why do they put up with so much punishment, and why do so many young men try out for the team every season. Perhaps I can give him some accurate answers. To many of the members of the Rugby Club, rugby takes presidence over all other activities; they actually live for the game and the club. Week after week they are called on to give their thne, money, a.nd energy to keep the dtganization on its feet. They can often be seen washing uniforms, groming the ft~ld, selling buttons or shirts to raise mbney, or straining to get in good enough shape" to play winning rugby. Then, aftet facing the best competition in the East on Saturdays, when others would rest, they again volunteer to help. I suppose that there is, as Mr. Harrington says, a deep pride involved. It is true that there is more than just a beer for a reward. As far as I can see it is the thrill that comes with knowing that you are a part of the- best. I am sure that everyone knows the Tom Crowleys, Steve Canes, and Quinnie Murphys, but there are some guys in the club whose names never appear on the sports page, and yet, without whom the club could not go on. I only wish there were room to mention all of them now. It is obvious why the Rugby Club is a success. But the members of the club are not the only reason why the ruggers just completed their most successful season ever. Long before the opening kickoff, the Rugby Club re-ceived help from various individuals and groups who deserve to be thanked. In every instance in which the Admi.nistration was asked for assistance, they were extre.mely cooperative. Mr. Bisacca and the Athletic Association were willing to aid us when we needed them. The Student Government also granted us $250 to help defray the cost of insurance for our players. We were quite fcrtunate 1n having an interested and active moderator in Mr. Paul I. Davis. To all these people go our sincere thanks. There is another group of people who give a tremendous lift to the ruggen both on the field and off. The Student Body has been encouraging the club on the field and supporting them financially since the club's inception in 1963. Thanks for this season, and I hope to see you all down by the pond for an undefated Spring season. It would be unfair at this point not to mention my six roommates who patiently put up with "rugby headquarters" and its various inconveniences. Thanks are also in order to Steve Carre, Club Secretary and hardest worker in the organization. No one person has put more into Fairfield Rugby than has Steve. These are some the forces behind a successful campus activity. I am grate-ful to all, and to The Stag for recognizing us and them. Slaeerely, BW CoaaoD.y Presldeat, F.U.B.F.O.

December 2, 1968 THE STAG WVOF Revises Reporting With Eye To Versatility By BIC BAKER "Unless we start along the lines of responsible student reporting the Administration and Faculty will not respect us. They are not going to regard us as a vital means of communication." These are the words of Richard Makse, program director and station manager of WVOF. He believes that unless the news department becomes more versatile and more oriented to campus reporting the f uture growth of WVOF will be stymied. Describing WVOF'a function ---------------------as that of "provldinl a service charge. of the Sports Depart- or on tape, all the home games, to those living on campus," Mr. ment, feels that his department plus all the away games except Makse feels that the Radio Club achieves its goal through ita Music, News, and Sports Departments. However, the sta· tion manager feels that the radio club is "more entertainment oriented" than he would Wee. News Coverace broadcasts receive the largest audience. In response to the student's needs the Sports Department has increased its schedule th.is year. During the fall the Radio Club covered all the away games of the Fairfield University Club Football team. Presently it is covering the Hockey Club and will broadcast Basketball games later on this year. "At this time we plan to broadcast, either live those over the vacation. 'Ibis o.t course is dependent upon our financial position." Games to be broadcast in the near future are: the Fairleigh Dickinson Universicy game on December 4, the St. Joseph's College game on December 7, and the Stags' home opener on December 11 against King's college. WVOF also plans on covering the Hockey Club game against Adelphi this Friday. Page Eleven ~. Richard M.akse, WVOF Statton Man11.ger, broadC&atB over the newly-arrived console.

Magaletta is called on in the clutch to score with hill familiar 15 footers from the foul line, his uncanny short jumpers in the lane or from the close baseline. The combination of Magaletta and Gibbons will be of prime importance as they represent the only returning duo that saw consistent action last season. Sanabria Returns Expected to take up the rebounding slack created by the loss of Jones, Crenshaw, and Kenney iJ 6' 7" junior Rick Sanabria, who returns after a year's absence due to academic difficulties. His record at Fairfield includes a brilliant freshman season and his impressive varsity performances against Niagara (23 points and 16 rebounds) and Loyola of New Orleans (20 points and 16 rebounds) . The Malverne High graduate from Long Island is counted on to furnish sorely needed inside scoring punch in addition to his better than average outside shot. Rick must clear the boards against such taller opponents as Bob Lanier (6' 11", St. Bonaventure) and Phil Washington (6' 9'', Duquesne) if the Stag fast break is to be effective. Rick will also be called upon to set picks and pass to cutters from his high or low post positions. 'lbe "sophomore to watch"' is 6'6" Mark Frazer, a forward, who set the total points scored record for the frosh last year, whfle averaging 24.5. Mark is an adept outside shooter and ball-handler and Coach Lynam hopes to develop him into • strong Inside man to capitalize on tus maneuverability. The exSt. Augustine's, New York star can be a vital cog In the Stag rebounding game if he is able to match strength with the op. posing veterans against whom he must compete. Another Phlladelphla product is 6'1" guard, Sam King, a graduate of Father Judge. King is one ot the moet outstanding defensive ballplayers In Stag hlstory, as displayed by his uncanny ability to steal the ball as an integral part of the Stag press that was irutiated in the upset of Villanova last Dec. 16. Sam entered that game in the last five minutes and turned in three key steals to combine with Gibbons and Jones for the come-from-behind victory. Sam also bolstered the pressing defense in the victories over Holy Cross, and Niagara. In the Niagara game, he snapped an 81~ deadlock with three minutes to play when he sank two foul shots. 0n· offense, the junior guard is an adept passer and playmaker in addition to being a deadly free throw shooter <88% last year) . Leading the quartet of returning lettermen is J. C. Dennis, a 6' 3" senior who is pressing for a starting berth. His tremendous leaping ability gives him versatility as be is equally at horne In front (the comer) or back court. Another challenging ballplayer, who can crack the starting lineup is the 6' 3" "Blond Bomber" from Meriden, Conn., Jim Hessel. Hessel started on several occasions last year, most notably a 20 point 6utburst in his debut 8iainst Stonehlll. Jim depends on "downtown" jumpers and the flashy junior thrilled the fans with four straight 25 footers in the opening moments of the Fordham game. Art "Aabo'. Good looms as a strong backup man for Sanabria at the center spot. The burly 6' 7" junior from Massachusetts hopes to rebound from his injury-plagued season of a year ago. More help on the front line comes from 6' 6" Rich Schoenbeck from Westboro, Mass. The lanky junior figures to see considerable action at the center and forward positions. Newcomers to the varsity in· elude Tom Purcell, Tom Finch, and seven-foot Bill McGee, Sophomore Purcell was particularly impressive in the second half of last year's freshman campaign, registering several 20 point games. The 6' 4" forward provides extra bench strength for the front court. Tom Finch, a local star from Norte Dame in Bridgeport, supplies added depth in the backcourt. Finch moved in to replace Leo's (Fla.), and an improved East Carolina. This Wednesday the Stags continue their road show, journeying to Fairleigh Dickinson to meet the Knights who fell to the Stags 84-78 a YellE ago. The Knights have lost 6' 6" Reggie Foster and backcourt star AI Patierno. This year's squad will be built around veterans Ron Branch (6' 2"), two 6' 5" seniors, Charlie Zolot and Ken Wangler, and guard Ron Kist who takes over for Patierno. Lack of height and depth suggest that the Knights might be the Stags second victim. St. Joseph's The Stags continue to look homeward as they ta.ke on St. Joseph's in their third straight road tilt, this time in the City of Brotherly Love, which has never been very brotherly when it comes to basketball. The Stags will be out to avenge last season's 82-78 setback, while fresh in the Hawks' memories will be the stunning 88-68 thumping inflicted by Fairfield two years ago to end a long vantage, the Hawk fans must be seen to be believed, will serve to make this the first stiff test for the Stags. King's College The Stags then make the briefest of stops as a one-game homestand inaugurates the home season on Dec. 11 against King's College of Pa. King's, attempting to go "big-time," engages Notre Dame the week before they visit Stagland. In both cases they appear to have overstepped their class and the Stags, enjoying the homecourt advantage for the first time, should emerge victorious. St. Francis Saturday, Dec. 14, the Stags hit the road again; destination Loretto, Pa., where the Frankies will be seeking to reverse last year's 87-82 loss. As in the case of St. Joe's, the homecourt poses a significant menace to any visitor. The Frankies affectionately refer to their fieldbouse as the "Mosque" and at least one irate coach can tell you how appropriate that label is - Coach Don Kennedy vow- Tho 1968-69 Falrftold Unlvonlty baskotba.ll team.

Kneellng: Coach .James Lynam and Captain .James Brown. Bob Kanski in the latter half of the frosh season and turned in several outstanding jobs. Junior Bill McGee makes his varsity debut this year. Coach Lynam is working to improve the weak points in McGee's game and to use his height to advantage in the pivot. The Fairfield Stags embarked on a rugged 26 game campaign last night when they traveled to battle the "Chiefs" of Stonehill, the first of 15 road op. ponents as opposed to only 11 home games, a factor not to be easily dismissed. The rigors of travel Is an aspect of basketball life that the Stags will become increasingly familiar with this season. This year's schedule includes five changes: Houston, Dayton, Xavier, St. Mary's (Calif.), and Rider have been replaced by Kings (Pa.), University of Vermont, Iona, St. home court winning streak for St. Joe's. Holdovers Dan Kelly (whose brother Bob is expected to star for the Stag freshmen) and Mike Hauer are the nucleus of a squad that must compensate for the loss of Billy DeAngelis (12 per game) and Mike Kempski {8.9). Kelly (17.7) and Hauer (17.8), who were both all-conference and All-Big Five selections, will most likely be complemented by sophs John Connolly, 6' 6" candidate for center, Jack Snyder, 6' 2" guard, and Eric Mitchell, 6' 5" forward. Although Coach Jack McKinney has more height than his 17-9 club of a year ago, inexperience, especially at the center spot, makes it unlikely that the Hawks will provide a rude awakening for Coach Lynam's homecoming. However, the slick Kelly and strong Hauer plus the homecourt ad-ed that his St. Peter's Peacocks would never again play at Lo-retto due to the cramped court1 and alleged poor lighting. Lights, or no lights, St. Francis seems at least equal to last year's version, which finished 19-6. Returning Frankies include 6' 1'~ Norm Vanlier (18.8), 6' 7" Larry Lewis (17.4 points and 17.7 rebounds, sixth in the nation), and southpaw Bill Snodgrass (17.0), whose long left-handed sets were most effective in last year's contest. Mike Copeland, a 6' 10" soph, with a year of varsity experience as a frosh, is expected to share the rebounding load with Lewis. It will take a high scoring effort by the Stags to dim the Frankies' home victory lights. Boston College The Stags make another hitand- run stop at Fairfield to hopefully strike down Bob Cousy and his Eagles who are ''rebuilding," but one might say lhat half the house is aiready buill The Eagles will no doubt miss Steve Adelman, Jack Kvancz, Jim Kissane, and Steve Kelleher, from the '67-68 squad that dumped Fairfield 90-76. But Terry Driscoll and diminutive Billy Evans should provide the punch for Cooz's men. Driscoll, the 6' 7" pivotman averaged 17.8 points and 12.9 rebounds. Evans returns after a bout with mononucleosis. Supporting these two seniors are 6' 4" junior Bob Dukiet who sports a 14 point average, soph Frank Fitzgerald at 6' 7" who scored at a 20.2 clip for the frosh, and highly-touted sophomore guard Jim O'Brien. This contest will be the first in the New Haven Arena, where two years ago the Stags threw quite a scare into the Eagles, who, ruffled in the first half, managed to pull away late in the second. Cousy will have bitter memories of Jim Brown who led the Stags to victory three years ago in B.C.'s Chestnut Hill homecourt opener. Vermont On December 21 the Stags pack their bags again and are off to Vermont to tangle with the Catamounts, a new eddition to this year's schedule. The Catamounts compiled a s..5 Yankee Conference mark and were 12-12 overall. The predominantly junior squad must replace high scorer and rebounder Bill Librera (16.6 points per game). The backcourt should be solid with Dave Lapointe (15.4) and Frank Martiniuk (15.4) manning the guns. The problem lies in the forecourt where poor rebounding and foul trouble have consistently plagued the Catamounts. Last year's showing was Vermont's best in ten years and, with its front court problems, this one may have to struggle to ap. proach .500. The Stags should walk away with a Christmas present here. Holy CroN The Stags greet the New Year with another road show, this time in Worcester, Mass., where they meet the Holy Cross Crusaders on Jan. 4. Coach Jack Donohue should have one of New England's toughest squads as he tries to improve upon last year's 15-8 mark, and avenge the 65-63 loss to the Stags. Leading a sparse crop of returnees is Ed Siudct, a two time all-New England pick, who at 6' 7" averaged 23.2 scoring inside and outside with his unique jumping hook shots. Trying to atone for the loss of Keith Hochstein and Jim Murray is a talented and tali crop of sophs. Bob Kissane, who broke all of brother Jim's records at Chaminade High on Long Island, appears ready to step in at forward where his 6' 8" size will add board strength for the Crusaders while his smooth outside shot will make him troublesome to the defense. Just to make sure H.C. won't have to look up to many opponents are sophs Don Sasso (6' 8") Pete Knapp (6' 7") and John Harlin (6' 7') . Add to that list soph Jack Adams (22.3 for the frosh) and you have a Continued on Page 14 Pt'ge Fourteen THE ITA& December 2, 1968 Questionable Cage Season Begins Cont.lnued from Page 13 young but impressive club. At 6' 1", Adams seems to be the field general for the Crusaders. The Stags may have board troubles here and consequently the fast break could suffer. So the Stags will rely mainly on their press against a bigger but slower Crusader five. lona The Stags continue on the road against the Iona Gaels, members of the Met Conference who recorded a 13-9 mark last winter. Key returnee is Bob McMahon (16.3), a 6'0" guard who will be joined in the back court by slick 5' 6" playmaker John Carey (7.5). 6' 6" Bill McGugins, leading rcbounder a year ago holds down the center post and veterans Tony Morgan (9.7) at 6' 5" and 6' 3" New O'Connell (9.4) occupy the forward posts. Joe Mazella (20.9) at 6' 3" and 6' 4" Artie Wiggins (19.7) lead a talented inftux ot sophs from Iona's '67-68 Met Conference freshman champs. Gael experience should give the Stags something to ponder. Bridgeport This hom~and-away series starts on Jan. 11 at U.B. where the Purple Knights have always been tough, last year being no exception as it took some last minute heroics by Jones and Magaletta to salvage a 76-74 win. At home U.B. fell 66-58 earlier in the campaign. Led by 6' 6" senior Gary Baum (20.1) the Purple Knights hope to better their school record pace of a year ago (19-8). Bruce Webster can look to returnees Bob Fauser (11.4) at 6' 4", 6' 5" forward Tom Finn (5.5) and team quarterback 5' 10" Tony Barone (10.8). Replacing guard John Brill and his 18 point average will be the task of junior Rufus Wells and soph Bill Rubs. Otht>r sophs who will see considerable action are 6' 7" John FosterBey and six-foot Jack Kisch who led the yearlings to an 18-1 season, including a pair of decisions over the Stag frosh. The Stags should duplicate last year's performance, completing the sweep when U.B. comes crosstown on Feb. 24. American The Stags will be out to make amends for the 83-72 thrashing they absorbed from the Eagles last season when American invades Fairfield on Jan. 13. Coming off a 14-12 ledger a year ago, the Eagles are counting on co-captains Terry Hill (10.3), a 5' 10" guard and Gordon Stiles (13.7), a 6' 3" forward, their only returning starters. Junior Vince Schafmeister, 6' 8" will have to assume the rebounding duties left by graduated 7' 1" Art Beatty. The other vacancies will be filled by junior college newcomers Dan DuVal and Bill Kagarise at 6' 3" and 6' 00" respectively. Promising sophs include Reid Fader (13.8) and Mike Graham (9.1). Overall height, experience, and depth are lacking in a unit that has never played together. Stags convincingly. St. Leo's On Jan. 15 St. Leo's of Florida provides the competition in our gym. St. Leo's is in its second varsity season, having compiled a 10-5 record in their Initial campaign. This year's edition is a sophomore-junior squad with experience as a unit. In addition, Leo's has recruited some transfers from Chicago. The Stags should chalk up third straight victory in as many campus appearances.

Fordham After exams the. Stags take to the road to engage the Rams of Fordham on Jan. 26. In one of their most erratic games of last year, the Stags lost to Fordham 62-55 in the Arena. Coach Ed Conlin Inherits last year's N.I.T. club from John Bach. His chances of duplicating their 19-8 mark hinge on the pel'formances of veterans Bob Kellert (12.6), who is 6' 5", and 6' 4" Bob Cassour (4.2) up front and 6 7" Dennis Witkowski in the middle, with 6' 3" Pat Raftery and 6' 1" Frank McLaughlin <12.9) at the guards. Some of the slack ~ ated by the loss of Bill Langheld (16.9) and defensive star Ken Parker may be taken up by sophs Bill Mainor, who at 6 2" led the frosh (21.7) and 6'5" Bob Larbes (12.3). VlllaDova Leading off the second half of the season is a contest with the Wildcats of Villanova, who figure to be our strongest opponent. Picked by the experts to rank In the top 10 nationally, the 'Cats will have the added Incentive of reversing last year's upset loss to the Stags, 63-62. Jack Kraft's squad is loaded and seems assured of its eighth consecutive post season tourney. Only Joe Crews is absent from last season's 19-9 N.I.T. entry which reversed a dismal 1-7 start. The 'Cats, always tough in the latter half of the season, should be tough throughout this time around, with r~ turning starters Johnny Jone:. (20.4) at 6' 4" leaper, 6' 7" center Jim Mcintosh, 6' 5' forwards Sammy Simms (injured in pre season) and Frank McCall. The guard spots are occupied by Frank Gillen (5.4), a driving playmaker who is a defensive standout, and Bobby Melchionni (6.0). An excellent group of sophs may steal a few starting berths from these veterans. Tops among them is 6' 8" Howie Porter who led the frosh with 30 points and 21 rebounds a game. Mr. Lynam gives him the "can't miss" tag and tabs him a sure fire all-American before he's through. Clarence Smith (19.2) at 6' 5", John Fox 6' 3" (16.5), and Hal Watson 6' 4" (injured last year, but a prep school sensation) are other sophs who figure prominently in Kraft's plans. All of this impressive fir~power is coupled with a defense that was seventh best in the nation. One needs a magnifying glass to find a significant weakness in this club. A peak performance by the Stags in the Arena on Jan. 28 could produce an upset that would serve as a resilient springboard for the second half of the season. Georgetown The Hoyas of Georgetown follow on the heels of Villanova and encounter the Stags in New Haven on Feb. 1. Georgetown capped our disastrous trip to D.C. last year with a 78-61 romp. That unit has lost Bruce Stinebrickner (12.6) and Dennis Ceasar (15.0) who led the Hoyas to an 11-12 mark. Coach Jack McGee will rely heavily upon 6' 6" Charlie Adrion, a junior who averaged 17.0. The ex-New Jersey school boy star added 10.2 rebounds. Joining Adrion up front are 6' 4" forwards Jim Supple (13.1) and Rick Cannon (6.9). The guards are 5' 11" Mike Laska (5.1) and 5' 10" Don Weber (20.3) as a frosh. Lack of height and depth figure to help the Stags reverse last year's outcome. Duquesne The Dukes storm into the Arena on Feb. 3 with last season's 90-67 drubbing of the Stags to give them confidence. The '68-69 version appears to be at least as strong as last year's 18-7 N.I.T. bunch, d~ spite the loss of top-scorer Ron Guziak. Four starters return: 6' 4" Moe Barr (15.2), 6' 2" Billy Zopf, 5'9", Gary Major (7.8), and top rebounder Phil Washington (13.4) also at 6' 9". Coach Red Manning rates soph Jarrett Durham (21.1 as a frosh) as his best prospect since Willie Somerset (now in the ABA with the Houston Mavericks). The 6' 5" Durham will see plenty of action as will a set of 6' 10" twins - sophs Gary (18.8) and Barry (15.7) Nelson. The Dukes, who round out the thre~game home stand (longest of the year for the Stags), are, along with Villanova, the Stags most awesome rivals, and it will demand another superior showing by the Stags to send the Dukes home defeated. St. Bonaventure No Stag fan will soon forget the heart - stopping farewell game last season when Jones· attempt to tie the Bonnies in overtime with a third straight free throw fell off the rim, giv- ConUnnedonPagel5 Flashy Wayne Gibbons makes a driving jump ahot In laat year's humiliating defeat to the Boston College Eagles.

The inflated number three national ranking was burst in the N.C.A.A. playoffs as North Carolina and Columbia crushed the Bonnies. The Bonnies figure to suffer from the loss of offensive standout Bill BuUer (22.8) whose place will be taken by 6' 3" soph Greg . Gary from New York. The rest of last year's unit remains intact centering around 6' 11" allAmerican Bob Lanier (26.2 points and 15.6 rebounds) whose massive 270 lb. frame is almost unstoppable on inside drives. 6' 5" John Hayes (13.4), and guards Jim Satalin (11.9) and Billy Kalbaugh (8.9) complete the starting quintet. The Bonrues appear to have problems in depth and scoring punch beyond Lanier's close range offense. A performance of the dimensions of last year's 7Q-69 loss could corral a Stag victory over the Bonnies. Manhattan The Stags return home from Olean and the Bonnies to tangle with the Jaspers of Manhattan on Feb. 12 at toe Arena where the Stags were victors In the 1967-68 encounter by an 83-78 tally. Ken Norton who replaces Jack Powers at the helm plans to run more and employ a zone press, to soften the blow felt by the loss of three starters; Marty Baietti (16.5), Bill Goodfellow (15.0) and Al Orlando (10.9). Sophomores Brian Mahoney (25.4 as a frosh) and Matt Lynett (19.9), both 6' 3" will man the guard spots, while 6' 7" junior all-Met selection John Marren (17.3) will be in the pivot. Forwards Grady O'Malley (10.6) and Doug Fitzgerald (2.5), both 6'2" return to complete the lineup. Lack of bench strength and inexperience at guard· should make the Jaspers vulnerable to the Stag press. East Carollna The Stags emerge from the grueling six-game, two-week heart of the schedule to swing South and play the Pirates of East Carolina, who fell victim to the Stag two years ago. Since then the Pirates have entered the rough Southern Conference, playing such powers as Davidson and West Virginia, losing to the latter by three points in the playoffs. East Carolina, strong in league play, hopes to improve upon lts overall 9-15 record. Flashy guard Earl Thompson (16.8) will be helped by sophs Jim Gregory, 6' 7" (25.2 and 15 rebounds), and Mike Dunn, 6' 4" (17.1) as well as vets 6' 7" Jim Modlin (10.6), 6' 5" Rich Keir (7.8), and guard Tom Miller (8.5).

Ad Hoc Committee The nursing proposal was accepted following the recommendation of an ad hoc faculty committee, which has been working with Dr. John A Barone, vice-president for Planning. This favorable motion was based on meetings with numerous c oil e g e administrators, members of professional and accrediting associations, hospital administrators and members of the medical profession. Consideration of the question of co-education began in the University community two years ago. Following a consensus recommendation by faculty and students, the University's Board of Trustees issued a statement in May, 1967 endorsing the principle of joint education of men and women and recommendi·ng that the administration seek a coordinate women's college to join with Fairfield.

Vlce·Pr&Udeatlal Nominee Although only 28 years old, Mr. Bond is seen by many as a symbol of the three main currents of change in the country - the civil rights, peace and youth movements. His name was put into nomination as Vice-President at the convention but he was forced to withdraw after a few states had voted because he fell seven years short of the legal age for that office.

Conservative congressmen expecting to find the bearded, illclothed stereotype of the new left are surprised to find Mr. Bond dressed in his conservative Ivy League clothing. The blot of racial discrimination first hit Mr. Bond, whero. as a senior at the George School, a Quaker prep school in Pennsylvania, the headmaster ordered him not to wear his school jacket when he went on dates with his white girlfriend.

Nun~ Needs This ever increasing need for degree nurses has been intensified by the continual sophistication of medicine, by the multiplication of social and community problems associated with better J¥dical care for all citizens, by the expansion of research programs, by the demands for competent personnel prepared to assume supervisory roles in hospital administration, and by the existing void of qualified faculty members for nursing programs. Dr. Barone pointed out that at present there are only three baccalaureate nursing programs in the state and they are not able to till the future need for college trained nurses. He went on to say that "at this time one major hospital in the state can promise to employ every degree graduate in next year's aggregate commencement class of nurses. The probll';n today is serious; tomorrow it will be overbearin~." "We have designed our problem to alleviate this deficiency for college trained nursing personnel who are capable of dealing with the increasingly complex problems of medical care, community relations, and hospital administration," explained the vice-president. This cooperative venture will provide a program of substantial academic value as well as sound medical and pragmatic preparation. Arrangements with regard to curriculum, clinical programS and general degree requirements will be worked out by the appropriate faeulty committees and depax:tments of the University and representatives of the cooperating hospitals. The administrators of these hospitals will also assist in the recruiting and placement of students.

K. of C. Sponsors SDS Discussion By .JOSEPH GEBIO The Knights of Columbus recently sponsored a meeting at whieh two members of the Students for a Democratic Society, Kevin Ke-lley and Bob Ellis, discussed the goals of SDS at Fairfield. They also considered the incidents at Chicago and Columbia. Kevin Kelley sald there are no specific goals, since SDS is not an ideological group, but a general protest against the system. Action would be taken by SDS if and when the need arises. One problem SDS is concerned with is the redistribution of wealth in America. No plans have been made as to a method of redistribution, but the welfare system would be rejected because of its "obvious ineffectiveness." One fallure of the SDS, Mr. Kelley felt, is a lack of contact with labor, partly because it is concentrated on campus, partly because labor has achieved Its goals and does not look for Suggests Changes the last issue of 'l'be Sta&', Mr. Kelley replied that, "Mr. Howe gave a general outline of the most blatant needs for academic reform such as the required courses which are forced down your throat." He continued saying that, "in the Academic Forum we can go into specifics of course curriculum. We are trying to make the curriculum of the student's major more relevant tO him." Mr. Kelley noted that be is in the process of compiling data on course curriculum of other institutions. He hopes to make "some concrete proposals before Christmas." Dr. Rosivach, professor of classics, "is preparing a faculty viewpoint" on course curriculum changes and Mr. K~lley stated, "We will consult with him on our proposals." Mr. Kelley stressed the fact that the curriculum changes have been proposed for the last two years wihtout a great deal of success. New ideas and suggestions are needed. Kevin Kelley can be contacted through Box 819 in the Campus Center. new plans, and is not concerned with social justice. Thus SDS wants to convince the upper middle class that, "It is to their benefit to let others have money." Here is another fallure, seen through the fear of the white backlash vote for Wallace.

It began with the league for Industrial Democracy, which bad recently expanded to include students. After working in the League for two years, SDS split because of dissatisfaction with the system. SDS was then a mod· erate group, working for Johnson and civil rights. It became militant becauae it was "forced to." Johnson went from "peace candidate to hawk," and after working on the local level, they found they were either being duped by the men they worked for, or the people didn't want these men in office. Seeing the faults in the system - seniority rule in Congress, where old men who really don't know what's happening control important committees; ghettoes; Vietnam - SDS felt it bad to work outside the system.

This action is being carried out to support the consumer boycott of the United Farmworkers Organizing Committee's {AFL-CIO). which is trying to lift the migrant farmworkers of California out of poverty by providing them with the option of unionization. The picketing is aimed at coercing the large food chains to cease the sale cf California table grapes and to convince customers, not only to refrain from purchasing such grapes, but to refuse their business to these stores. BecoplUOD. Befuaed The movement began in September 1965 when the Union, organized by a migrant worker named Caesar Chavez, struck the grape growers of Delano California. This job action was precipitated by the growers repeated refusals to discuss recognition of a farm worers union. The growers knew that they were secure in their refusal, since even though the union represented a clear majority of the workers, it could not take advantage of the election procedures under the National Labor Relations Act because this act specifically excludes agricultural workers from coverage. Largely as a result of this exc 1 u s i o n, California migrant workers are among the most poverty stricken groups in America's working force. Average annual earnings for adult male workers in 1965 were $1,918.00 (For families approx. $3,000.00) Their life expectancy is 49 years. Death and disease rates are far bieber than the national dverage: % bJcher thaD Datloaal rate Infant mortality 125% Maternal mortality 125% Influenza and pneumonia 200% TB and other infectious diseases Accidents Sale• Beducttoa It is hoped that the boycott will cause a drastic reduction in sales and thus force the farm owners to permltt elections which will determine whether the workers are represented by Chavez's union, another union, or no union at all. The UFWOC already has won nine contracts, mostly with wine grape growers. These victories are due more to the success of consumer boycotts than to the pressure of the strike. Provisions of the nine contracts: raised wages; provided grievance procedures; and provosion for overtime pay, job security, rest periods, health insurance, holidays and vacations with pay and other benefits. All contracts include NO STRIKE clauses. Due to the continued r esistence ot large growers of table grapes, the nation wide boycott has been focused solely agalnst them. Anyone interested in contributing time or funds to the boycott are urged to call 1-322-5549 or to contact Peter Hearn, box 672 or Grape Boycott c/o Box D. For anyone interested in devoting time to picket offending stores, there will be cars leaving from the Campus Center at 3:00. Revived Ski Club Plans Winter Events By .JOHN ROBERTO After one year of inactivity the Ski Club at F·airfield has thrown, but this was played up by Mayor Daley. Cops were taunted, but breaking open heads is not a rational response." Bob Ellis, talking about Columbia's "disturbance," listed four causes: 1) the gym in Harlem; 2) Columbia's connection with defense grants; 3) the president's isolation from the students; 4) the suspension of students and the jailing of one after a demonstration. SDS took over one building until lines of communications between administration and students were reopened. This movement snowballed: the blacks wanted a separate demonstration, and they took over Hamilton Hall, kicking out the whites. The whites then took over Low Library. To the argument that a minority had no right to take over a university and harm a majority, SDS answers that Columbia took rights away from Harlem. Columbia did have alternatives - building upward rather than ou~ ward. which they are presently doing. been revived under the leadership of Jay McDermott, Tom Salamone, Bob O'Hern and Father Thomas Loughran, S.J. An organizational meeting was held one month ·ago and 23 prospective memb ers attended. Meetings are held when ever the need arises for all to meet. The Ski Club is currently up for recognition by the Administration and Student Government. Following the last meeting, the Ski Club began to make plans for the 1968-69 skiing season. Their biggest project of the year will be a three day skiing vacation to Lune Mountain, IJncoln, New Hampshire during semester break, January 26-29. The entire trip including breakfast dinner, and sld1ng ticket will cost between $65-70. It is open to all members and student of Falrfield. Also invited are many girl's schools and other ski clubs in the Lune Mt. area. The Ski Club owns their own lodge at Lune Mt. wbere they will sponsor mixers and parties with other clubs.

Ruane, ''71, Amendment Bill Proponent "Students should have the power of self-detennination over their private lives and the conduct of their own eroup.llving" Lewla B. Mayhew, President American ANoclatlon for H!gher Education (as quoted In Time Magadne) nus statement by one of the foremost educators in America succintly summarizes the rationale for the events occuring in the Student Legislature in the past weeks, especially in regard to the proposed amendment to Article VI of the present Student Association Constitution. Often in public and in private the proponents of this amendment have been castlgaed as: "rash", "refusing the responsibility that comes with power'', "illogical", and "the proponents of unconstitutional procedure". These terms a.re grossly inaccurate; they seek to cloud the issue with emotional verbalisms. I hope that the following will help clear the air of any misconceptions. In brief, the amendment calls for the striking of the phrase. "They (future constitutions) must then be recommended by the Dean of the College to the President of the University", and the subsequnt wording "Upon approval of the President". In no way does this amendment infringe upon the functions of the Student Government. Rather, it serves to increase the power and the intluence of the Government. The key to this controversy is the question of the nature of the Government. Until recently, the Government appeared to consider itself as the voice of the student association on the matters directly concerning them. It possessed the power of mere "recommendation" to the Administration on the opinions, thoughts and grievances of the student body. Many interested students have attempted to change this concept by actively confronting the Government, as in the recent dress controversy. Now they are attempting this change through entirely legal means. Such a reversion from extra-governmental to intra-governmental action must be commended. Co-existent with the nature of the Government was the nature of its Constitution. Since it had no rw power to decide effectively in its own realm, the Constitution became a handbook of committees and rules of procedure. It took no new directions as to the rights of the stude.nts; it remained a novelty surpassed only by Robert's Rules. The nature of the Government (i.e. the Legislature) has changed. It 1& giving "a just representation in the affairs of the designated government of that community." The majority of the legislators feel that the student should have the abillty to influence these decisions that directly concern him. Parietal hours, dress regulations and such do not affect the Administration as much as they affect the students. For the Administration they are social safeguards, based on the asJumption that the Fairfield student is immature. By passage of the amendment (and · the subsequent adoption of the Constitution intact, devoid of meaningful change by the Administration), the student does have the ability to choose the codes that affect his life on this campus. They are the rights granted to him by his parents when they allowed their son to live away from home. Indeed, they are the rights basic to man's nature. For the Administration to usurp these rights, or to dismiss them for their own protection as an institution is contrary to their oft-quoted phrase "in loco parentis''. Rather, they assume the character of "in loco del". The op~nents of this amendment will state two objections: first, that the amendment breaks a contract with the Administration, and second, a student conititution without the approval of the Administration is valueless. I cannot emphasize enough that a contract must be between equals. The Ad.nllnistration and the Faculty dictate the policy of their respective segments. Let us dictate ours. They determine the range of their powers and the proper use of such power. Let us do likewise. Let us decide on the matters concerning the student, giving ample consideration to the opinions of the Faculty and the Administration. Then may we turn our attention to the matters which involve the other segments of the University. To 'say that a constitution is invalid because of the lack of Administration ap. Vandalism Rise Causes Concern By GEORGE BBITrON . "I don't know what to do about it," Mr. Robert K. Gnffin, Dean of Student Services, commented concerning the recent rise of vandalism on the campus particularly on the dark, parking lots near the New Dorm. In the past few weeks, sev- By .James R. Cunningham, '69 Minority Leader - Student Legialature, Chalnnan - Flnanclal Committee In our discussions concerning the proposed amendment to Article Six of the Student Government Constitution, I believe it helpful to remove all irrational emotionalism and attempt to get to the basic realities involved. Simply, the facts of the issue revolve around three major considerations. 1. The passage or rejection of the amendment is a vote against or for the spirit of "tri-partiteism" here at Fairfield. The basic thrust of the past and present Government administrations has been and still is toward this highly worthwhile goal of integrating all three spheres of our university into a united front of comon action, based upon mutual understanding with the rights of all considered. Only if we are willing to reason together about the great problems facing this campus can serious and effective results accrue. Our major success can occur only if decisions are implemented in a real way, concretely and seriously, and this comes from action taken trilaterally, not simply unilaterally by either the student body or the administration. Singular action by any side leads ultimately to an undesirable confrontation in which neither side is the winner. 2. It must be remembered that Article Six of the present Constitution gives the administration the power to approve or reject only future, new constitutions and by-laws. The latter by-laws are a total obsolesence, since no useful governmental constitution uses them, as they are r eserved for orgaizational characters primarily. Thus, in reality we are speaking about only new constitutions as requiring administrative approval. It is the very nature of a constitution that it is never unilateral, since it is made between the students, who possess a cerain degree of power, and the administration, who also have power with the attendant right to exercise it. Our present Constitution was freely agreed to with this fact in mind, with this fact clearlY stated in Article Six. We display a rather gross lack of honesty and sincerity by attempting to abrogate singularly what is in essence a pluralistic document. Again, let us be reminded that the approval called for in the presently binding Article Six refers only to new constitutions and does not even mention the ordinary acts of the Government: acts, bills or decrees. All these actions are not placed under the finalization of the administration, either explicitly or implicitly. 3. We must finally wake up to the reality of the situation. We do not have the power to force the administration to accept our breach of contract by the pasage of a piece of paper with so mariy words written upon it. Further, we have even less power in trying to enforce our unilateral decrees, once passed, and in making them real in the lives of students. We are not the only group at this university, The two other branches, which are vitally important, have equal rights; rights which must be protected if all of us are to be truly, justly and fairly treated by the others. The presentation of a 'fait accompli' to any segment of our community is the apotheosis of injustice, frustration and hopelessness. In closing, let me urge all students to think seriously about the proposed constitutional amendment, because it is of very great importance for the very real, daily lives of all of us. Blatant emotional.ism, sweeping generalities and the bandwagon psychology of trying to win empty facades of victory by throwing this amendment up in the face of the administration simply for the sake of doing so, have no place in a mature decision. The best method of success in the effort of all of us to radically affect policy in a real way is the spirit of mutually benevolent "tri-partiteism", which is best served by voting NO on the proposed constitutional amendment to Article Six of the Student Government Constitution. proval is to assent to a hierarchical structure of the University, with the Administration at the peak, followed by the Faculty, and then the Students. To ask for approval is to admit that the students are of least concern- second to the good name of the University and the well-being of the Faculty. This cannot be accepted. If the Students do not recognize themselves as the most important segment of the University, do they expect the Administration to do so? I exhort the members of the Student Association to vote "yes" on the amendme. nt. It can only serve to advance the responsibilities of the student. Isn't it about time that we learned to charter our own course?

Herald Slants Security Story By COLIN KILEY "Completely slanted," was the comment given by Mr. Arno Zeyn, Director of Operations at Fairfield in regards to an article in the Sunday Herald which ;aid "Former New ~aven Police Chief Francis V. McManus may come o ~t of retireme.nt to hea:d up the newlycreated security staff at Fairfield Umversity." Mr. Donahue, Vice-President of University Relations concurred saying that "the story had no basis at all. Fairfield University has not made any arrangements with Mr. McManus to head this position, nor had it been decided that there would be such a position." Security Division "McManus," the Herald article continued, "has been offered the job at the J esuit school and has been aiding uni-versity officials in setting up a drawing board for the proposed security division." It went on to say that "the former police chief, who retired last March as head of the New Haven department, will serve as a consultant in establishing the Fairfield U. security force and will head that unit."

The phone rang and Alfonso picked it up, "Hello, yes, ~ello Pablo, yes Pablo, yes, I know Pablo, but .... Yes Pablo, Goodby Pablo." Alfonso was quiet for a long tUne, then he ftnal.ly spoke, ''1bings they do not go well with Pablo. Things, my brother, do not go well with us. Things, they do not go well at all. The forces ot the Bureaucratinalles are at the gates of the city. They have united forces with the Insurrectionalles inside of the city. We are doomed. The Bureaucratinalles bring many papers and men who read the books of law. They say that we have done too much business with the Federalles in the capital. They say that we do not own our city, Roberto. They have promised the Insurrectionalles in the populace the reforms that they desire. They both say that we must be thrown from power. Civil War, it is a bad thing." ''nlis is so, my brother." spoke Roberto. "Do you bear the city chimes? The bell I think that it tolls for me, it tolls for all of Ul." The phone rang again and after a long conversation Alfonso placed the phone on the receiver. Looking quite dejected, he again glanced out of the window and spoke. ''1be weather, it is bad still. Pablo, he bas the fear." "On no, my brother, this is too much of a burden to bear," replied Roberto and continued, "Alfonso, I think I, too, have the tear." "Yes Roberto, but that is not the worst of it. The Insurrectionalles now control the lower city and the Bureaucratinalles are besieging the fortress on the bill. How horrible this is. I remember when Pablo was the friend of the Insurrectionalles and promised them many reforms. I remember when be was the friend of the Bureaucratinalles and feasted them at the ll Progresso banquet. I remember when be was the friend of the Federalles and received money from them. He even treated the Insurrectionalles as in place of a father. Roberto, do you remember this man? Pablo is no longer he. Pablo, be bas the fear. The govemment bas collapsed. We have been instructed to flee to the fortress city of Wooster, with all of our possessions but with none of those of the Federalles." "But what of our leader Pablo?" spoke Roberto. "He is a prisoner, my brother." said Alfonso. "Oh no, replied Roberto, "is be the prisoner of the Insurrectionalles or of the Bureaucrationalles?" "Neither my brother, spoke Alfonso, Pablo is the prisoner of the Anarchistinalles. He is being held captive in his own office. They have, it seems, sat in. They say that they do not want Pablo to ftee and they do not want him to stay." "What of the Anarcbistinalles, Alfonso? I do not understand them." "They are of a bad sort my brother. They do not like the Federalles. They do not like the Bureaucratinalles. They do not like us. They do not like each other. They cannot decide who is worse, the Federalles or the Bureaucratinalles. They do not want either o! them to govern the city, and they do not want to govern it themselves. They say that they want the Insurrectionalles to govern themselves, and this is why they are called the Anarcbistinalles, I think." "Yes my brother," said Roberto, "but we must ftee.

Each college and university in New England is permitted to nominate two students for the fellowship. From these many nominationa ten students are selected. This year Fair6eld Univer· sity had the honor of having both its nominees being named Fellowship recipients. A.Dnaal OOilveaUoa The New England Psychological Association, the rerfonal branch of the American Psychological Association, holds an annual Thanksgiving convention at which papers are presented and the te.n honorary fellow· ships are awarded. Although no pecuniary reward or scholarship is coneeted with this honorary fellowsh\p, it is a recognition by a croup of professional psychologists of a s t u d e n t ' a undergraduate acbievem~tac and o! the potential for future work in tbe fteld of ps~chology. Unique Prorram \ Fairfield has a unique physiological program; in fact, it is so innovative that it is not even found on most graduate levela o! study. The program utilizes an advanced laboratory procedure which enables the student to learn and perfonn the rudi· ments of basic neurosurgical experiments on rats and other laboratory animals. Under this advanced system students are taught how to produce selective lesions in discrete areas of rats' brains followed by behavioral testing (e.g. learning in a maze). Students then undertake a histological analysis of the locus and extent of the brain lesion by cutting very thin sections through the limits of the brai.n lesion area and staining them with basic dies.

In it was propaganda from the Anny ROTC. They wanted me; I was flattered. In fact I was so flattered I wanted to bum It immediately but my better judgment got hold of me and I decided to wa'lt until I got home. Some friends were coming over ttlat night and I thought having a burning might be fun and appropriately sacrilegious; It was Halloween. But by the time. I'd gotten home I'd forgotten about the brochure and my origmal intentions. I have not been able, however, to forget what tht! brochure said. The pamphlet began, "'l1le U.S. Army knows leaders are made, not born." Whether intentional on the anny•s part or not, this sentence sounds rather Sartrian. Jean Paul Sartre, French eldstentialist philosopher, talks about basically the same idea of self-realization, yet in much more confused terms and with no desire to be elitist. He too feels that after birth man is nothing more than what he makes of himself. Philosophically, Sartre begins with a universe of nothingness. Out of all this nothingness man is the only thing that is able to deftne its being. Man is able to create his essence because he has the essential, ultimate, and ftnal freedom of being able to say no to nothingness; to Sartre freedom is the touchstone of all human dignity. When man says no to the nothingness of the universe, he begins to realize himself. Man makes something of his life by deciding to disassosiate himself from nothingness. In short, Sartre feels man gets out of lite what he responsibly puts into it. · Sartre and the United States Anny. Somehow coupling these two because of similarity In statement goes well beyond the traditional bounds of fate, strange bedfellows, and all that other gibberish. lb' seeing their persuasions in action, the Anny presently in Vietnkm, and Sartre a few years back condemning their presence In Vietnam, it Is easy to see that somewhere In their verbal likeness there lies a fundamental fraud. My guess would be it lies with the Army. Wh~n Sartre talks about man creating value In his life through making decisions, he is talking about a continual process. He realizes that as man becomes a man through deciding, each decision he makes becomes more Important. He acknowledges that man cannot a1ford to stop deciding for himself. The Army, on the other hand, by Its very nature demand'~ that a man, .rter deciding to enter its ranks, suspend the decialcm-members. Sartre does not believe In collective genius, and thereby would brand this kind of existence as living In ba4 faith. Many, however, probably cll.sagree with me violently about the above paragraph, and would like to have me court martialed for having written it. They defend their posltien by insisting that a lack of deciaion-maklng opportunities may be the case when one is a private, but Is certainly not true when one Is an officer. After all, they claim, officers are the "ones" who have to decide not only for themselves, but for all the men they command; tlili. Is more responsibility than any pointy-headed, Communist, atheist, french philosopher would ever dare to uaume. And on this point I would have to agree. For one, Sartre would never want to have any part of a killing machine, no matter how far reaching his clecisions as a killer might be. The thrust of Sartrlan philosophy Is a humanitarian, not a predatory one. When the army put In Its pamphlet that "The training Is specifically designed to place candidates under beayy physical, mental, and emotional pressures of simulated war conditions," it seems to me, from Its past record, that it Is telling the truth. The Army says Its training is designed to teach a man how to ftght and kill Of course they explain away the.ir actions and existence under the guise of preserving world peace, but this should fool no one. To "kill for peace" destroys the sense and beauty cf peace. Secondly, Sartre would deny that the decisions made by a commander of a platoon are actually his. The brochure explains that once one enters Officers' Training he is aubject to a ten month training program. 'nle first eight weeks are basic combat tramtng. The nine weeks that follow are some kind of advanced training. The remainder of the ten months Is naturally .supposed to asaum~ a much higher level of education. whatever that means In tbe army. All of which evidence, that once a candidate enters, his mind becomes army property tor ten months. This length of time allows those In charge of indoctrination to do their job thoroughly in demonstrating to the candidate what ia "right" and thereby what he should do. After this ten month ordeal, nobody's mind can remain completely his own. Sartre would prefer keeping his own mind, even at the expense of power. But then again, many army devotees would rejoin that being an officer in the United States Army has its advantages. They are: 1. belonging to the oJricers' club, 2. tree medical care, 3. tree legal aid and advice, 4. 30 days paid vacation, 5. a higher pay scale (a higher pay than other army men, that Is), and most important of all 6. being able to "meet people of high calibre and s1mllii.r interests." Having these last points brought to his attentioQ Sartre mleht very well reconsider his pait judgments concerning tbe army. The only stumbling block to this might be, that in the true equalitarian spirit, Sartre could not help but ask, with an opportunity so full of advantage., why Is the Army ROTC FOR MEN ONLYT THE STAG Page .Seven Cooperating Schools Issue Statements Over Coed Plans EDITOR'S NOTE: The f ollowtag are excerpta from tbe at:atementa luued by the hoepltall cooperat.tac with Fall'· Aeld UDlvenUy ID the decree nunlllg' procram. Greenwich Bo.pltal The Greenwich Hospital is pleased to be a part of the program, while at the same time continuing its own well established three-year diploma pro-gram. The Greenwich Hospital recognizes that the demands of modem hospital care can be even further served by a baccalaureate program in nursing. Advances In technology, Improvements in preventive measures, the ability to sustain life in heretofore hopeless situations - all these have created an environment that asks more of the practicing nurse than ever before. A strong background in the sciences will make her more adept at working with the sophisticated equipment and new techniques that surround her now and that will continue to be developed in the future. A strong background in the humanities will give her the insights and the breadth of judgment that she will need to rely on every day of her working life. And an academic setting in which she can know and observe students in other disciplines, will give her knowledge of people, and of the world, that can only work to her advantage in administering bedside care. The program promises not only to raise the level of bedside nursing, but to provide p~ fessional nurses who can lead and direct the modern nursing team that bas evolved out of the new concepts of medical care. It will also make available a larger group of well qualified nurses who can advance to the next higher professional degree. And, especially important, it may encourage many nurses to become teachers and ftll a serious need that exists in nursing education in the state. Stamford Ro.pltal a College education will avail themselves of this opportunity to receive a degree in nursing rather than pursuing a degree in another allied field. The baccalaureate program will assist In preparing additional faculty members and. it will enable them to move more quickly into a masters program. The more people that are prepared on the college level, the more rapidly students could be prepared on the diploma, practical nurse, and nurse aide level thereby helping to alleviate the nursing shortage. St. Joseph's Hospital is able to offer Its clinical facilities for clin.ical experience in implementing the academic phase of the program. The educational tone of the Hospital Is enhanced with a nursing program at this level. The presence of student nurses keeps everyone on the alert. It Is a community responsibility to provide nurses. The Hospital will make a contribution to the community by participating in the program and thereby Increasing the number of nursing personneL Skiers Organize Caatuaed from Pace J are also plannillg one or two trips to Catamount Mt. and Mt.

The Ski Club has also sent away for skiing movies from the Pepsi · Company and next year plans to charge admission for skiing films and speakers. According to Jay MacDermott, an officer of the club, "The Ski Club is the thing for skUng lovers and also those who are not experts at the sport. You don't have to be able to ski to join the Ski Club, lessons may be provided on campus whenever there Is a substantial snow fall. Otherwise most · resorts do have lessons for beginners.

Firstly, there has been absolutely no attempt on the part of the club to present the necessary documents to allow the Legislature to appropriate any funds to them. A list of total membership, supporting evidence of where the money will be spent, and the proposing of the appropriation by a legislator are all necessary even before consideration of a grant can occur by the Financial Committee. Secondly, the claims that appropriate funds are not being utilized Is totally false. The $3,000 student loau fund is presently being used on a daily baSis with already about $1,000 expended. The $4.000 of the Social Department has also been spent as a down payment for the Peter, Paul, and Mary concert. This wlll hopefully return, but it will be used shortly thereafter to plan for another concert. The $3,400 of the Activities Department is being used for speakers already contracted for and further for free busses, the latest of which have_ ~n used to benefit the Hockey Club by transporting ticket-buying spectators to the Bridgeport Wonderland of Ice. Further, let me say that the idea that an organization must receive at least as much money as they paid to the Student Government is rather absurd, since one Is expected to pay his Activity Fee regardless of his association with any particular club. This money is to support the Government, not to be doled out to every organization on campus. If this were the case, the Government would be bankrupt in a few days. It is hoped that in the future we might be able to help the Hockey Club more, but in our present financial condition there is little or no funds to be distributed. With the possibility of greater payment of Activity Fees, we would be most happy to give this fine organization as much money as possible. l!llncerely, lames B. Cun.nl.ngham Flnanclal Committee Chairman • • • Thanks, But .. . To th Editor: We would like to thank M.rs. Brown for taking the time on Thursday afternoon (November 21) to acquaint us with the running of the bookstore. Her gracious assistance enabled us to understand the problems confronting the bookstore. We fotmd that the exorbitant prices on books are actually demanded by the publishing companies. These prices are the same for the Yale University Co-op and the Sacred Heart University Book Store. The problem, therefore, lies in the publisher's price setting. We also found Mrs. Brown very receptive to any requests for products not appearing on the sl\elves. For her patience and understanding we would sincerely like to thank Mrs. Brown. However, the assumption that it would not be feasible for the Student Government to run the bookstore is not entirely true. Yes, pennanent help would be necessary, but it is conceivable that the Student Government could replace the company that now has the concession. The initial cost and operating procedures required for such a venture should be (Ooatlaaed OD Pa&'e 10) A Matter of Princip_le This Wednesday the students of this university will be voting on an amendment to the Student Government Constitution that could prove to be a revolutionary step in revamping this nation's educational system. The passage of this amendment, which provides for student ratification of future student constitutions, would be the first concrete implementation of the principle of atudent power. According to this principle, there are certain areas that are solely of student concern. These areas, of course, pertain to the student's private life. Curfews, sign-ins, parietals, and dress are examples of some areas of concern in which the faculty and administration have no right to meddle. Course requirements, class cuts, and implementation of certain marking systems are examples of areas that concern all three segments of the university. In effect, exponents of the student power principle are asking not for a free hand in running all aspects of the university, but simply for the right to have final say in matters concerning their private lives, and an eQual voice in matters that concern the administration, faculty, and themselves. We cannot support this principle too strongly. Due to legislative bungling in the Student Government, the amendment was not put on the ballot in the recent election. The decision was made by the amendment's proponents and opponents supposedly to give each side more time to present their case to the stude?t ~ody. We know of no such drive to educate the student body on ~~us ISsue and feel that the move was the direct result of petty pohtical maneuvers on the part of both sides. Th~ amend!Jlent's oppon~nts, no doubt, feel that if the voter turnout lS poor., Its passage will be meaningless. On the other hand, the amendments proponents feel that because the leftist activities on campus outnumb~r t~eir ideologica.l counterparts, a poor turnoul would mean certam VIctory. Both attitudes represent a flagrant disregard for general student opinion. Now the ques~on is up to you. Unfortunately. students here do not have a reputation for standing on principles. Pragmatic stagi~m runs ra~pant e.ven all)o_ng t~e "conscientious" left. Rebellion in the past agamst this admmistrabon's paternalistic policies has occurred only when the students' liquor or sex lives have been threatened. b . All that can change now. Perhaps the adminstration will even e Impressed by a show of student initiative At any rate we can h be sure that there ~ill be no stock responses be~ause student initiative as never been an 1ssue here.

The recent series of thefts that has been taking place in and around the various campus parking lots is only one more reason why the security force of this university needs drastic revision. We cannot understand how the present security force has been unable to surprise the culprits even once, despite the fact that the breaks are numerous enough for even an unsuspecting stroller to unknowingly chance upon such an attempt. While the security force has an extremely poor record of apprehending those who threaten our security, they have an unblemished record of implementing ambitious ticket-blitzes to insure the security of the businessmen's Loyola parking spaces. We wonder whether they see their function here as primarily to insure our security or that of administrative employees. The parking lot behind Campion Hall and the New Dorm last week was the scene of the most expensive break to date. The theft of $200 worth of auto accessories might have been prevented had Mr. Griffin allowed the student involved to park his car in front of Campion where there are lights. The same student had been refused such permission two weeks earlier in a talk with Mr. Griffin in which the former expressed concern over the lack of parking lights in the area. The lights in this lot will go up eventually, we suppose, but in the meantime is the administration ready to assume responsibility for the security of student vehicles? We hope so. We suggest that the administration take a close look at the effectiveness of their "security" force and take immediate steps to remedy the situation. In the meantime we urge all students who own cars to disregard their assigned lots and park their cars where they feel they will be afforded the most protection. If the administration refuses to accept responsibility for our cars it thereby cedes its right to regulate OQI' parking. ,., .... _ E C L E.CT I C Some people at Fairtleld would like to see a change. That's nice. But there is an institution involved that Is working on traditional grounds, and it has a built in right to do so unless the tradition is changed from within. So the ultimatum becomes cleer once this is remembered: It is necessary to work from within an existing establishment or bid adieu. The United States has been in error and other countries have been right, (lest we forget there are other oountries and they exist too), and so on it goes that certain people and universities have been wrong while others have been correct. It has been said that when one knows what his problems are he is half way to solving them, and there are problems that certain Institutions have that they do not know they have. It remains for us to discover the prot>. !ems, to seek for their discovery, and to listen to those that have discovered. Problems are hidden things that slowly kill us, and sometimes we do not know when it is we die. One of the things that we must cope with is the unfortunate situation that things cannot be changed for the better health of us all. Change that comes too slowly often comes too late even though it brings token dustpans along for the dust. Also, change that comes too suddenly can be irrevocably damaging and its very rashness be its tombstone. These are the elements which we must sift. A pleasure loving society cannot afford not to think. Thinking is its only survival kit. Be careful not to "judge" new thought too quickly unless you intend to be judged by the new thinkers, and maybe left for your impetuosity to rot. Pleasure loving and complacency comes naturally. It is only thinking that comes rationally and is it thinking that we do? There is a problem that C. P. Snow has pointed at recently from a rostrum at Westminster College in Fulton, Missouri. The problem which we must grasp is that of world famine in the 1980's unless the following are met: 1. A concerted effort by the rich countries to produce food, money, technical assist~ce for the poor of the world. 2. An etfort by the poor countries themselves on the lines of India and Pakistan to revolutionize their food production. 3.An etfort by the poor countries - with all the assistancP that can be provided - to reduce or stop their population increase, with a corresponding reduction in the population increase in the rich countries. This is his ultimatum and one of a statesman, novelist, philosopher, and scientist. It is the Malthus theory again, but old cliches have a way of popping up once more, and Snow says that unless these points are met, "Many millions of people in the • poor countries are going to starve to death before our eyes, or to complete the domestic picture, we shall see them doing so upon our television sets." He continues saying, "One hears young people asking for a cause." I might add, "Does one?" But anyway, ne gives it to- us: "It is the duty of all the rest of us, and perhaps most of all of the generations which are going to live in what is now the future, to keep before the world its long term fate. Peace. Food. No more people than the earth can take. That is the cause." Yes, it is a cause, and also our duty, but no one likes that word. It means effort and how many people like to exert themselves on something cooperative today? Most people only have time to devote to self, and that really is not very devotional. Time must be taken on both short and long range to cope cooperatively with problems that are not on the individual level today, but unless we face them on a cooperative level soon they will be on our individual doorsteps tomorrow with sickle in hand. The grim reaper will take his due from each of us individually unless such problems as world famine be met now cooperatively, and between the nations of the world, and between the town councils in the states, and between universities the world wide, and between roommates. (and other combinations, you might think of.) C. P. Snow foresees three end results If thll ultimatum is not met. They are: 1. That the superpowers will continue their arms race and famine will take charge. 2. That agricultural science will give mankind a generation's breathing space to think things over. 3. That the world will break out of the seige of clique or individualistic selfish thinking to make the sacrifices necessary to avert disaster. The "sacrifices necessary" are the three points Hsted before. It remains for us to make the "third future" a possibility which C. P. Snow sadly doubts will come to pass. We must rationally consider his three steps and put an end to our own individual cliques, our country's internal break up, and the world's common disunity so that working cooperatively we shall be able to solve. this the world's first problem. For the choice (as are most) la: Uve or die. THE STAG December 2, 1961 More Letters to the Editor Ooetbulecl t:roaa hp I investigated before beine rejected. It is possible that this particular Student Government is not now, and never will be, capable of running the bookstore. If so, let us then search for other means of financially aiding the Government. Perhaps running the game room would be an alternative. Our main contention is that the Fairfield University Student Government must be financially independent in order to achieve its goals. We suggest that Mr. Howe look into the possibilities available to make the Student Government a power in its own right Tbomaa L ConNy, ''Jl IUchard F. MlllteUo, '11 • • • Rugger' s Reply To the Editor: In Shaun Harrington's column concerning the Fairfield Rugby Club which appeared in last weeks Stag, he asked what motivates the ruggers, why do they put up with so much punishment, and why do so many young men try out for the team every season. Perhaps I can give him some accurate answers. To many of the members of the Rugby Club, rugby takes presidence over all other activities; they actually live for the game and the club. Week after week they are called on to give their thne, money, a.nd energy to keep the dtganization on its feet. They can often be seen washing uniforms, groming the ft~ld, selling buttons or shirts to raise mbney, or straining to get in good enough shape" to play winning rugby. Then, aftet facing the best competition in the East on Saturdays, when others would rest, they again volunteer to help. I suppose that there is, as Mr. Harrington says, a deep pride involved. It is true that there is more than just a beer for a reward. As far as I can see it is the thrill that comes with knowing that you are a part of the- best. I am sure that everyone knows the Tom Crowleys, Steve Canes, and Quinnie Murphys, but there are some guys in the club whose names never appear on the sports page, and yet, without whom the club could not go on. I only wish there were room to mention all of them now. It is obvious why the Rugby Club is a success. But the members of the club are not the only reason why the ruggers just completed their most successful season ever. Long before the opening kickoff, the Rugby Club re-ceived help from various individuals and groups who deserve to be thanked. In every instance in which the Admi.nistration was asked for assistance, they were extre.mely cooperative. Mr. Bisacca and the Athletic Association were willing to aid us when we needed them. The Student Government also granted us $250 to help defray the cost of insurance for our players. We were quite fcrtunate 1n having an interested and active moderator in Mr. Paul I. Davis. To all these people go our sincere thanks. There is another group of people who give a tremendous lift to the ruggen both on the field and off. The Student Body has been encouraging the club on the field and supporting them financially since the club's inception in 1963. Thanks for this season, and I hope to see you all down by the pond for an undefated Spring season. It would be unfair at this point not to mention my six roommates who patiently put up with "rugby headquarters" and its various inconveniences. Thanks are also in order to Steve Carre, Club Secretary and hardest worker in the organization. No one person has put more into Fairfield Rugby than has Steve. These are some the forces behind a successful campus activity. I am grate-ful to all, and to The Stag for recognizing us and them. Slaeerely, BW CoaaoD.y Presldeat, F.U.B.F.O.

December 2, 1968 THE STAG WVOF Revises Reporting With Eye To Versatility By BIC BAKER "Unless we start along the lines of responsible student reporting the Administration and Faculty will not respect us. They are not going to regard us as a vital means of communication." These are the words of Richard Makse, program director and station manager of WVOF. He believes that unless the news department becomes more versatile and more oriented to campus reporting the f uture growth of WVOF will be stymied. Describing WVOF'a function ---------------------as that of "provldinl a service charge. of the Sports Depart- or on tape, all the home games, to those living on campus," Mr. ment, feels that his department plus all the away games except Makse feels that the Radio Club achieves its goal through ita Music, News, and Sports Departments. However, the sta· tion manager feels that the radio club is "more entertainment oriented" than he would Wee. News Coverace broadcasts receive the largest audience. In response to the student's needs the Sports Department has increased its schedule th.is year. During the fall the Radio Club covered all the away games of the Fairfield University Club Football team. Presently it is covering the Hockey Club and will broadcast Basketball games later on this year. "At this time we plan to broadcast, either live those over the vacation. 'Ibis o.t course is dependent upon our financial position." Games to be broadcast in the near future are: the Fairleigh Dickinson Universicy game on December 4, the St. Joseph's College game on December 7, and the Stags' home opener on December 11 against King's college. WVOF also plans on covering the Hockey Club game against Adelphi this Friday. Page Eleven ~. Richard M.akse, WVOF Statton Man11.ger, broadC&atB over the newly-arrived console.

Magaletta is called on in the clutch to score with hill familiar 15 footers from the foul line, his uncanny short jumpers in the lane or from the close baseline. The combination of Magaletta and Gibbons will be of prime importance as they represent the only returning duo that saw consistent action last season. Sanabria Returns Expected to take up the rebounding slack created by the loss of Jones, Crenshaw, and Kenney iJ 6' 7" junior Rick Sanabria, who returns after a year's absence due to academic difficulties. His record at Fairfield includes a brilliant freshman season and his impressive varsity performances against Niagara (23 points and 16 rebounds) and Loyola of New Orleans (20 points and 16 rebounds) . The Malverne High graduate from Long Island is counted on to furnish sorely needed inside scoring punch in addition to his better than average outside shot. Rick must clear the boards against such taller opponents as Bob Lanier (6' 11", St. Bonaventure) and Phil Washington (6' 9'', Duquesne) if the Stag fast break is to be effective. Rick will also be called upon to set picks and pass to cutters from his high or low post positions. 'lbe "sophomore to watch"' is 6'6" Mark Frazer, a forward, who set the total points scored record for the frosh last year, whfle averaging 24.5. Mark is an adept outside shooter and ball-handler and Coach Lynam hopes to develop him into • strong Inside man to capitalize on tus maneuverability. The exSt. Augustine's, New York star can be a vital cog In the Stag rebounding game if he is able to match strength with the op. posing veterans against whom he must compete. Another Phlladelphla product is 6'1" guard, Sam King, a graduate of Father Judge. King is one ot the moet outstanding defensive ballplayers In Stag hlstory, as displayed by his uncanny ability to steal the ball as an integral part of the Stag press that was irutiated in the upset of Villanova last Dec. 16. Sam entered that game in the last five minutes and turned in three key steals to combine with Gibbons and Jones for the come-from-behind victory. Sam also bolstered the pressing defense in the victories over Holy Cross, and Niagara. In the Niagara game, he snapped an 81~ deadlock with three minutes to play when he sank two foul shots. 0n· offense, the junior guard is an adept passer and playmaker in addition to being a deadly free throw shooter <88% last year) . Leading the quartet of returning lettermen is J. C. Dennis, a 6' 3" senior who is pressing for a starting berth. His tremendous leaping ability gives him versatility as be is equally at horne In front (the comer) or back court. Another challenging ballplayer, who can crack the starting lineup is the 6' 3" "Blond Bomber" from Meriden, Conn., Jim Hessel. Hessel started on several occasions last year, most notably a 20 point 6utburst in his debut 8iainst Stonehlll. Jim depends on "downtown" jumpers and the flashy junior thrilled the fans with four straight 25 footers in the opening moments of the Fordham game. Art "Aabo'. Good looms as a strong backup man for Sanabria at the center spot. The burly 6' 7" junior from Massachusetts hopes to rebound from his injury-plagued season of a year ago. More help on the front line comes from 6' 6" Rich Schoenbeck from Westboro, Mass. The lanky junior figures to see considerable action at the center and forward positions. Newcomers to the varsity in· elude Tom Purcell, Tom Finch, and seven-foot Bill McGee, Sophomore Purcell was particularly impressive in the second half of last year's freshman campaign, registering several 20 point games. The 6' 4" forward provides extra bench strength for the front court. Tom Finch, a local star from Norte Dame in Bridgeport, supplies added depth in the backcourt. Finch moved in to replace Leo's (Fla.), and an improved East Carolina. This Wednesday the Stags continue their road show, journeying to Fairleigh Dickinson to meet the Knights who fell to the Stags 84-78 a YellE ago. The Knights have lost 6' 6" Reggie Foster and backcourt star AI Patierno. This year's squad will be built around veterans Ron Branch (6' 2"), two 6' 5" seniors, Charlie Zolot and Ken Wangler, and guard Ron Kist who takes over for Patierno. Lack of height and depth suggest that the Knights might be the Stags second victim. St. Joseph's The Stags continue to look homeward as they ta.ke on St. Joseph's in their third straight road tilt, this time in the City of Brotherly Love, which has never been very brotherly when it comes to basketball. The Stags will be out to avenge last season's 82-78 setback, while fresh in the Hawks' memories will be the stunning 88-68 thumping inflicted by Fairfield two years ago to end a long vantage, the Hawk fans must be seen to be believed, will serve to make this the first stiff test for the Stags. King's College The Stags then make the briefest of stops as a one-game homestand inaugurates the home season on Dec. 11 against King's College of Pa. King's, attempting to go "big-time," engages Notre Dame the week before they visit Stagland. In both cases they appear to have overstepped their class and the Stags, enjoying the homecourt advantage for the first time, should emerge victorious. St. Francis Saturday, Dec. 14, the Stags hit the road again; destination Loretto, Pa., where the Frankies will be seeking to reverse last year's 87-82 loss. As in the case of St. Joe's, the homecourt poses a significant menace to any visitor. The Frankies affectionately refer to their fieldbouse as the "Mosque" and at least one irate coach can tell you how appropriate that label is - Coach Don Kennedy vow- Tho 1968-69 Falrftold Unlvonlty baskotba.ll team.

Kneellng: Coach .James Lynam and Captain .James Brown. Bob Kanski in the latter half of the frosh season and turned in several outstanding jobs. Junior Bill McGee makes his varsity debut this year. Coach Lynam is working to improve the weak points in McGee's game and to use his height to advantage in the pivot. The Fairfield Stags embarked on a rugged 26 game campaign last night when they traveled to battle the "Chiefs" of Stonehill, the first of 15 road op. ponents as opposed to only 11 home games, a factor not to be easily dismissed. The rigors of travel Is an aspect of basketball life that the Stags will become increasingly familiar with this season. This year's schedule includes five changes: Houston, Dayton, Xavier, St. Mary's (Calif.), and Rider have been replaced by Kings (Pa.), University of Vermont, Iona, St. home court winning streak for St. Joe's. Holdovers Dan Kelly (whose brother Bob is expected to star for the Stag freshmen) and Mike Hauer are the nucleus of a squad that must compensate for the loss of Billy DeAngelis (12 per game) and Mike Kempski {8.9). Kelly (17.7) and Hauer (17.8), who were both all-conference and All-Big Five selections, will most likely be complemented by sophs John Connolly, 6' 6" candidate for center, Jack Snyder, 6' 2" guard, and Eric Mitchell, 6' 5" forward. Although Coach Jack McKinney has more height than his 17-9 club of a year ago, inexperience, especially at the center spot, makes it unlikely that the Hawks will provide a rude awakening for Coach Lynam's homecoming. However, the slick Kelly and strong Hauer plus the homecourt ad-ed that his St. Peter's Peacocks would never again play at Lo-retto due to the cramped court1 and alleged poor lighting. Lights, or no lights, St. Francis seems at least equal to last year's version, which finished 19-6. Returning Frankies include 6' 1'~ Norm Vanlier (18.8), 6' 7" Larry Lewis (17.4 points and 17.7 rebounds, sixth in the nation), and southpaw Bill Snodgrass (17.0), whose long left-handed sets were most effective in last year's contest. Mike Copeland, a 6' 10" soph, with a year of varsity experience as a frosh, is expected to share the rebounding load with Lewis. It will take a high scoring effort by the Stags to dim the Frankies' home victory lights. Boston College The Stags make another hitand- run stop at Fairfield to hopefully strike down Bob Cousy and his Eagles who are ''rebuilding," but one might say lhat half the house is aiready buill The Eagles will no doubt miss Steve Adelman, Jack Kvancz, Jim Kissane, and Steve Kelleher, from the '67-68 squad that dumped Fairfield 90-76. But Terry Driscoll and diminutive Billy Evans should provide the punch for Cooz's men. Driscoll, the 6' 7" pivotman averaged 17.8 points and 12.9 rebounds. Evans returns after a bout with mononucleosis. Supporting these two seniors are 6' 4" junior Bob Dukiet who sports a 14 point average, soph Frank Fitzgerald at 6' 7" who scored at a 20.2 clip for the frosh, and highly-touted sophomore guard Jim O'Brien. This contest will be the first in the New Haven Arena, where two years ago the Stags threw quite a scare into the Eagles, who, ruffled in the first half, managed to pull away late in the second. Cousy will have bitter memories of Jim Brown who led the Stags to victory three years ago in B.C.'s Chestnut Hill homecourt opener. Vermont On December 21 the Stags pack their bags again and are off to Vermont to tangle with the Catamounts, a new eddition to this year's schedule. The Catamounts compiled a s..5 Yankee Conference mark and were 12-12 overall. The predominantly junior squad must replace high scorer and rebounder Bill Librera (16.6 points per game). The backcourt should be solid with Dave Lapointe (15.4) and Frank Martiniuk (15.4) manning the guns. The problem lies in the forecourt where poor rebounding and foul trouble have consistently plagued the Catamounts. Last year's showing was Vermont's best in ten years and, with its front court problems, this one may have to struggle to ap. proach .500. The Stags should walk away with a Christmas present here. Holy CroN The Stags greet the New Year with another road show, this time in Worcester, Mass., where they meet the Holy Cross Crusaders on Jan. 4. Coach Jack Donohue should have one of New England's toughest squads as he tries to improve upon last year's 15-8 mark, and avenge the 65-63 loss to the Stags. Leading a sparse crop of returnees is Ed Siudct, a two time all-New England pick, who at 6' 7" averaged 23.2 scoring inside and outside with his unique jumping hook shots. Trying to atone for the loss of Keith Hochstein and Jim Murray is a talented and tali crop of sophs. Bob Kissane, who broke all of brother Jim's records at Chaminade High on Long Island, appears ready to step in at forward where his 6' 8" size will add board strength for the Crusaders while his smooth outside shot will make him troublesome to the defense. Just to make sure H.C. won't have to look up to many opponents are sophs Don Sasso (6' 8") Pete Knapp (6' 7") and John Harlin (6' 7') . Add to that list soph Jack Adams (22.3 for the frosh) and you have a Continued on Page 14 Pt'ge Fourteen THE ITA& December 2, 1968 Questionable Cage Season Begins Cont.lnued from Page 13 young but impressive club. At 6' 1", Adams seems to be the field general for the Crusaders. The Stags may have board troubles here and consequently the fast break could suffer. So the Stags will rely mainly on their press against a bigger but slower Crusader five. lona The Stags continue on the road against the Iona Gaels, members of the Met Conference who recorded a 13-9 mark last winter. Key returnee is Bob McMahon (16.3), a 6'0" guard who will be joined in the back court by slick 5' 6" playmaker John Carey (7.5). 6' 6" Bill McGugins, leading rcbounder a year ago holds down the center post and veterans Tony Morgan (9.7) at 6' 5" and 6' 3" New O'Connell (9.4) occupy the forward posts. Joe Mazella (20.9) at 6' 3" and 6' 4" Artie Wiggins (19.7) lead a talented inftux ot sophs from Iona's '67-68 Met Conference freshman champs. Gael experience should give the Stags something to ponder. Bridgeport This hom~and-away series starts on Jan. 11 at U.B. where the Purple Knights have always been tough, last year being no exception as it took some last minute heroics by Jones and Magaletta to salvage a 76-74 win. At home U.B. fell 66-58 earlier in the campaign. Led by 6' 6" senior Gary Baum (20.1) the Purple Knights hope to better their school record pace of a year ago (19-8). Bruce Webster can look to returnees Bob Fauser (11.4) at 6' 4", 6' 5" forward Tom Finn (5.5) and team quarterback 5' 10" Tony Barone (10.8). Replacing guard John Brill and his 18 point average will be the task of junior Rufus Wells and soph Bill Rubs. Otht>r sophs who will see considerable action are 6' 7" John FosterBey and six-foot Jack Kisch who led the yearlings to an 18-1 season, including a pair of decisions over the Stag frosh. The Stags should duplicate last year's performance, completing the sweep when U.B. comes crosstown on Feb. 24. American The Stags will be out to make amends for the 83-72 thrashing they absorbed from the Eagles last season when American invades Fairfield on Jan. 13. Coming off a 14-12 ledger a year ago, the Eagles are counting on co-captains Terry Hill (10.3), a 5' 10" guard and Gordon Stiles (13.7), a 6' 3" forward, their only returning starters. Junior Vince Schafmeister, 6' 8" will have to assume the rebounding duties left by graduated 7' 1" Art Beatty. The other vacancies will be filled by junior college newcomers Dan DuVal and Bill Kagarise at 6' 3" and 6' 00" respectively. Promising sophs include Reid Fader (13.8) and Mike Graham (9.1). Overall height, experience, and depth are lacking in a unit that has never played together. Stags convincingly. St. Leo's On Jan. 15 St. Leo's of Florida provides the competition in our gym. St. Leo's is in its second varsity season, having compiled a 10-5 record in their Initial campaign. This year's edition is a sophomore-junior squad with experience as a unit. In addition, Leo's has recruited some transfers from Chicago. The Stags should chalk up third straight victory in as many campus appearances.

Fordham After exams the. Stags take to the road to engage the Rams of Fordham on Jan. 26. In one of their most erratic games of last year, the Stags lost to Fordham 62-55 in the Arena. Coach Ed Conlin Inherits last year's N.I.T. club from John Bach. His chances of duplicating their 19-8 mark hinge on the pel'formances of veterans Bob Kellert (12.6), who is 6' 5", and 6' 4" Bob Cassour (4.2) up front and 6 7" Dennis Witkowski in the middle, with 6' 3" Pat Raftery and 6' 1" Frank McLaughlin <12.9) at the guards. Some of the slack ~ ated by the loss of Bill Langheld (16.9) and defensive star Ken Parker may be taken up by sophs Bill Mainor, who at 6 2" led the frosh (21.7) and 6'5" Bob Larbes (12.3). VlllaDova Leading off the second half of the season is a contest with the Wildcats of Villanova, who figure to be our strongest opponent. Picked by the experts to rank In the top 10 nationally, the 'Cats will have the added Incentive of reversing last year's upset loss to the Stags, 63-62. Jack Kraft's squad is loaded and seems assured of its eighth consecutive post season tourney. Only Joe Crews is absent from last season's 19-9 N.I.T. entry which reversed a dismal 1-7 start. The 'Cats, always tough in the latter half of the season, should be tough throughout this time around, with r~ turning starters Johnny Jone:. (20.4) at 6' 4" leaper, 6' 7" center Jim Mcintosh, 6' 5' forwards Sammy Simms (injured in pre season) and Frank McCall. The guard spots are occupied by Frank Gillen (5.4), a driving playmaker who is a defensive standout, and Bobby Melchionni (6.0). An excellent group of sophs may steal a few starting berths from these veterans. Tops among them is 6' 8" Howie Porter who led the frosh with 30 points and 21 rebounds a game. Mr. Lynam gives him the "can't miss" tag and tabs him a sure fire all-American before he's through. Clarence Smith (19.2) at 6' 5", John Fox 6' 3" (16.5), and Hal Watson 6' 4" (injured last year, but a prep school sensation) are other sophs who figure prominently in Kraft's plans. All of this impressive fir~power is coupled with a defense that was seventh best in the nation. One needs a magnifying glass to find a significant weakness in this club. A peak performance by the Stags in the Arena on Jan. 28 could produce an upset that would serve as a resilient springboard for the second half of the season. Georgetown The Hoyas of Georgetown follow on the heels of Villanova and encounter the Stags in New Haven on Feb. 1. Georgetown capped our disastrous trip to D.C. last year with a 78-61 romp. That unit has lost Bruce Stinebrickner (12.6) and Dennis Ceasar (15.0) who led the Hoyas to an 11-12 mark. Coach Jack McGee will rely heavily upon 6' 6" Charlie Adrion, a junior who averaged 17.0. The ex-New Jersey school boy star added 10.2 rebounds. Joining Adrion up front are 6' 4" forwards Jim Supple (13.1) and Rick Cannon (6.9). The guards are 5' 11" Mike Laska (5.1) and 5' 10" Don Weber (20.3) as a frosh. Lack of height and depth figure to help the Stags reverse last year's outcome. Duquesne The Dukes storm into the Arena on Feb. 3 with last season's 90-67 drubbing of the Stags to give them confidence. The '68-69 version appears to be at least as strong as last year's 18-7 N.I.T. bunch, d~ spite the loss of top-scorer Ron Guziak. Four starters return: 6' 4" Moe Barr (15.2), 6' 2" Billy Zopf, 5'9", Gary Major (7.8), and top rebounder Phil Washington (13.4) also at 6' 9". Coach Red Manning rates soph Jarrett Durham (21.1 as a frosh) as his best prospect since Willie Somerset (now in the ABA with the Houston Mavericks). The 6' 5" Durham will see plenty of action as will a set of 6' 10" twins - sophs Gary (18.8) and Barry (15.7) Nelson. The Dukes, who round out the thre~game home stand (longest of the year for the Stags), are, along with Villanova, the Stags most awesome rivals, and it will demand another superior showing by the Stags to send the Dukes home defeated.

The inflated number three national ranking was burst in the N.C.A.A. playoffs as North Carolina and Columbia crushed the Bonnies. The Bonnies figure to suffer from the loss of offensive standout Bill BuUer (22.8) whose place will be taken by 6' 3" soph Greg . Gary from New York. The rest of last year's unit remains intact centering around 6' 11" allAmerican Bob Lanier (26.2 points and 15.6 rebounds) whose massive 270 lb. frame is almost unstoppable on inside drives. 6' 5" John Hayes (13.4), and guards Jim Satalin (11.9) and Billy Kalbaugh (8.9) complete the starting quintet. The Bonrues appear to have problems in depth and scoring punch beyond Lanier's close range offense. A performance of the dimensions of last year's 7Q-69 loss could corral a Stag victory over the Bonnies. Manhattan The Stags return home from Olean and the Bonnies to tangle with the Jaspers of Manhattan on Feb. 12 at toe Arena where the Stags were victors In the 1967-68 encounter by an 83-78 tally. Ken Norton who replaces Jack Powers at the helm plans to run more and employ a zone press, to soften the blow felt by the loss of three starters; Marty Baietti (16.5), Bill Goodfellow (15.0) and Al Orlando (10.9). Sophomores Brian Mahoney (25.4 as a frosh) and Matt Lynett (19.9), both 6' 3" will man the guard spots, while 6' 7" junior all-Met selection John Marren (17.3) will be in the pivot. Forwards Grady O'Malley (10.6) and Doug Fitzgerald (2.5), both 6'2" return to complete the lineup. Lack of bench strength and inexperience at guard· should make the Jaspers vulnerable to the Stag press. East Carollna The Stags emerge from the grueling six-game, two-week heart of the schedule to swing South and play the Pirates of East Carolina, who fell victim to the Stag two years ago. Since then the Pirates have entered the rough Southern Conference, playing such powers as Davidson and West Virginia, losing to the latter by three points in the playoffs. East Carolina, strong in league play, hopes to improve upon lts overall 9-15 record. Flashy guard Earl Thompson (16.8) will be helped by sophs Jim Gregory, 6' 7" (25.2 and 15 rebounds), and Mike Dunn, 6' 4" (17.1) as well as vets 6' 7" Jim Modlin (10.6), 6' 5" Rich Keir (7.8), and guard Tom Miller (8.5).
