Samuel Beckett's "Krapp's Last Tape", directed by Alan
Scheinder and Edward Albee's "The Zoo Story", directed by
Milton Katselas. The Cricket Theatre, 162 Second Ave., New
York.
Eric Bentley once wrote a bitter piece on the playwright
as "forgotten man" in the contemporary theatre. Today's is a
director's theatre-subject, of course, to the horrible degradations
of the star system. There have been, however, off and on during
the course of the past two seasons, a few off-Broadway pro­ductions
which have restored the playwright to his deserved
position of eminence. The best known, and most successful criti­cally,
venture in this field is probably "The Connection." The
two plays now at the Cricket must be counted as a close second.
"Krapp's Last Tape" is a confusing and often frustrating
work. At first glance, it seems to be little more than a vehicle
for Henderson Forsythe's excellent acting. To dismiss it as merely
a "tour de force" would not be doing it justice though, as after
one has seen a talented actor perform in a vehicle, thoughts
are always centered around the acting. After leaving Beckett's
play, however, the focus of reflection is not on the actor but
on Beckett's statement of the human predicament, particularly
of old age.
The second play on the bill, Edward Albee's "The Zoo
Story", is interesting on two counts. The first of these is its rarity
as a "message" play that is humorous. When I say "message
play," I do not mean it to be taken in a pejorative sense, but
in the wider application of having a real and expressed point
of view. Most playwrights who criticize society are so inflamed
by the importance of their course that they lose the perspective
given by laughter. Not so Mr. Albee. His play is genuinely comic,
and genuinely important. The second reason is that the humor
in the play comes not from the actors - it does not depend on
the double take, the grimace, or any other of the hoary devices
of the night club comic - but from the words of the playwright.
Imaginary Voice: That's all very nice, but why are you re­viewing
these now; they're already hits?
Me: I liked them. I think Albee is the most talented young
writer in American theatre (I may revise when "Apple" is
produced). I think Beckett writes better parts for ACTORS
than anyone since Brecht. And, most important, I think it would
be a shame if two such fine plays got lost in the shuffle and
excitement of the new season.

will continue to be as generous.

Letters to the Editor
The spirit of "COMITATUS" is not entirely dead! The grape­vine
has brought word of a student-faculty effort to do something
about bringing "COMITATUS" to the rest of the university.
Manifesting the same interest with which they brought the
Bellarmine Forum and the highly successful spring art exhibit
to the Fairfield scene, this small group has proposed the mar­riage
of an informal lecture with a seminar discussion group. A
three-man panel of student, teacher and guest would discuss
some previously determined subject in weekly Thursday night
sessions in Gonzaga Auditorium. The sessions would be open
to the publIc and a nominal fee would be charged. The money
garnered by this entrance fee would be used to bring additional
name speakers to the campus. The following evening, interested
students would return to discuss informally the matter covered
by the panel. This second informal meeting would be conducted
in a private home of one of the students or faculty members. A
car pool would provide rides for those students who needed them.
Although no dates have been announced, the first panel is
presently being organized. The committee would appreciate sug­gestions
for future panels. Suggestions may be left in the STAG
office.
MORE ON 'COMITATUS'
Editorial:
Since our somewhat "modest proposal" to utilize the facilities
of Loyola and Xavier Cafeterias as student union snack bars
has not only been considered by the ones who count, but es­poused
to the extent that a cocktail lounge has been avocated
as necessary coefficient, we happily leave the physical elements
of "COMITATUS" in ,competent hands and push on to the more
important aspect, viz. intellectual contingency between those
academically-robed and those aspiring to it.
Paramount to achieving this intellectual contingency between
one's university peers on both sides of the desk, is a more efficient
(and more existant) system of lectures and informal seminars.
A casual perusal of the hundreds of university exchange news­papers
that cross the STAG editorial desk each week, reveals
Fairfield's system as glaringly deficient, both in quantity and in
quality.
Behind the problem of this lecture void, lies a large segment
of the student body, whose complacency or complete ignorance
of "what value lectures?" achieved the disbanding of the Public
Affairs Club (once a major source of good lectures). A cautious
university policy hesitant to allow students to substitute a sched­uled
lecture for a regular class, is its partner.
The present policy, with the inherent preamble that a blanket
permission to attend a lecture scheduled during the regular
class day would find Fairfield students heading for home rather
than to the lecture, besides being an insult to the hard core of
serious students, requires a separate permission from the class
instructor for each student who wishes to attend the lecture. Dis­regarding
the needless consternation for the teacher and student
involved, many members of the faculty, we are sure, would like
to be a part of the lecture audience.
With a few black sheep in the student body ,continuing to wag
their little tails, it is highly unlikely that a change in this policy
will occur during our stay at Fairfield. The need for some kind
of revision in the present policy remains. Since most students
do not live at Fairfield as resident students, the need to have
more of the lectures scheduled in the afternoon also remains.
As a "100 Days" solution to the problem, students should
be allowed to attend lectures without the present affidavit of
the class instructor. At the conclusion of the lecture, the student
would pick up a slip stating he had been at the lecture which
would be his admit slip to the next meeting of the class or
classes he missed while at the lecture. Anyone who has had the
unpleasant experience of watching a student hurriedly leaving
mid-way in a lecture to make a class, will appreciate the prac­ticality
of this suggestion.
This proposal still carries the stigma of "prepschoolism,"
but would serve as a means of treading water until the life
guard gets to us.

Since the "Fairfield Ski Trip" has been abandone·d
this year, many "dyed in ,the wool" enthusiasts will
pack their snow gear and set out alone or in groups
for the various slopes in New England and New York.
The weekend of January 27th is always popular be­cause
it immediately follows exams and all the col­lege
students are out to enjoy themselves. However,
not everyone climbing into the specioal ski trains and
busEes can be considered as one of the above enthusi­asts.
For those who have done all their skiing in the
reclining seats of a cineramic movie, I would like to
pass along seme tips which I acquired from our local
and school "experts."
The primary thing every new skier must learn is
how to avoid breaking his neck. Exercise, I am told,
helps one to escape the many fraetured limbs which
are prevalent in the ski areas. Deep knee bends (work
up to at least one-hundred a night) and as many toe
touches as possible will loosen the leg muscles and
tighten up the stomach. These are geared to give the
skier the extra strength at the end of the day (when
80% of the accidents happen) to avoid deep disastrous
ruts and trees.
The ability to fall corecUy is also a great asset. When
the skier realizes his equilibrium is gone and there
is no hope of recovery, a graceful "sit down" toward
the back of the skis is generally most successful. Under
these circumstances, release bindings are not only
handy, but practically a necessity for the new skier.
As you go down, the force of the fall frees the bind­ings
from your feet and the skis will slide on by them­selves
without giving your ankles the painful twist
that skiers fear. Picking the slope which is right for
your ability also adds to your enjoyment and safety.
The better the slope, in general, the more narrow and
steep it will be. When you are heading downhill at 40
or 50 miles per hour, trees can materialize out of no­where.
So even the best skiers warm up on a small
slope early in the day.
Part of any sportsmen's enjoyment is the ability to
use the jargon of the respeetive sport he chooses to
pursue. Words like "giant slalom" (a down hill race
in and out of marker poles), "schussing" (to head
straight down hill at top speed), "stem christe" (a type
of turn used by most skiers), and "herringbone climb"
are important in your sport's vocabulary and at least
include you in the conversation. If you are the com­foptable-
by-the-fireside type, names like J oni Sailer
(European Olympic Champ), Penny P~tou (1960 Amer­ica'll
girl Olympic Champ), and Buddy Werner (best
U. S. skier, who missed the 1960 Olympics because of
a broken leg) will keep up that all-American impres­sion
you hope to project.
Now that you have the fundamentals, all you need
is some ski gear and a place to use it. Stay away from
the Olympic tested and proven skis, boots and poles
because they are made just for that purpose and are
too stiff and fast for even a good skier. "Head" skis
are great if you have ninety-five dollars, but the old
style wood skis run about sixty dollars and can be
waxed fast or slow depending on the individual. For
example, Olympians in the down hill course were
clocked at over 100 miles per hour on wood skies,
while those you rent at a resort hardly match the
speed of the ski tow. However, if you plan to rent

by sophomores, many of
whom played on last year's
freshman basketball team.
After just three weeks of
play, the top teams have al­ready
begun to stand out, Jack
Kovaleski's quintet heads the
standings. Wovaleski, together
with Don Sa:ccomanno and
freshman Andy Donnelly have
kept their team on top with
each averaging more than ten
points per game. Also not to be
overlooked is Brian McAuley's
team which is in second place
having played one less game.
Brian McAuley and Joe Di

Dowling, Mullen Tied For Top Spot
With the ending of 'the Christ­mas
vacation the intramural
basketball league has once
again come into full swing. At
present there isa tie for top
honors shared by the teams of
John Mullen and ,Rod Dowling.
Both are sparked by a fine free
wheeling off.ense and good de­fense.
Mullen's squad is spark­ed
by its captain and Jim
O'Connor, with both men aver­aging
over twenrt:y per game.
Dowling's team is kept on top
because of the combined efforts
of three 'seniors, Tom Unger­land,
Bob Ritter, and Kevin
Reynolds.
Other teams to watch are:
Tracy, perhaps the tallest team
in the league, having three men
over 6' 4", all capable baH play­ers.
Arnold's quintet is carried
by the fine shooting of Jim
Mooney and ·Bill Schuman, and
the excellent defense of Ray
Graziani. Falvey is marked by
the fine play of Denny Locke.
Feehan Fielding the smallest
team in the league, possesses
two fine shooters in Skip Fee­han
and Gerry Ferris. Muller is
headed by Steve Csontos aver­aging
20 points a game. Tis­cornia,
with twice all-league
player Tony McCall could prove
to be trouble to many teams.
The last team but by no means
least is that of Brian Slayne.
Although defeated in its first
two contests they have fine
shooters ,in Mike Corcoran and
Rich Badolato.

flying officer on the Aerospace
team, he has chosen a career of
leadership, a career that has
meaning, rewards and executive
opportunity.
The Aviation Cadet Program
is the gateway to this career. To
qualify for this rigorous and pro­fessional
training, a high school
diploma is required; however, two
or more years of college are highly
desirable. Upon completion of the
program the Air Force encourages
the new officer to earn his degree
so he can better handle the respon­'
sibilities of his position. This in­cludes
full pay and allowances
while taking off-duty courses un­der
the Bootstrap education pro­gram.
The Air Force will pay a
substantial part of all tuition costs.
After having attained enough
credits so that he can complete
course work and residence require­ments
for a college degree in 6
months or less, he is eligible to
apply for temporary duty at the
school of his choice.
If you think you have what it
takes to earn the silver wings of

Even before Ron Spetrino received his engi­neering
degree from Case he had good job offers
from six companies.
He joined The Ohio Bell Telephone Company

go further here-if he was willing to work for it."
As soon as Ron got his feet on the ground
in telephone engineering, he was tapped for a
tough assignment. The job-to engineer switch­ing
equipment modifications needed to prepare
Cleveland for nationwide customer dialing of long
distance calls.
Ron wrapped it up in five months, and found
he had earned a shot at another tough assignment.
In this job Ron helped engineer a completely new
long distance switching center for Cleveland. This
switching center connected Cleveland with the
nationwide customer dialing network. It was
about a year later that Ron put the finishing

In a recent interview, the
chairman of this function, Dave
Shay, '61, explained that: "With
the formation of the Cardinal
Key Society last year, we real­ized
the potential of this organ­ization
to run such an affair."
Mr. Shay went on to say that
fTom past experience, "it is
necessary to obtain at least 125
pledges to obtain the 75 pints
we have set for our goal. Key
members will distribute pledge
cards to those desiring to 0.0­nate,
as well as the slips for
parental permission necessary
for those donors under 21 years

In the line of other advanced
publicity, Red Cross movies will
be shown as shorts at the Sat­urd,

The usual posters will be dis­played,
but the greatest impetus
to the drive will come from
personal contact by Key mem­bers.
The most important point
perhaps is that in the state of
Connecticut anyone at anytime,
receives blood free with no
strings attached. The fee at­tached
to transfusions is a pro­cessing
cost that cannot be
eliminated by donations in that
person's name, Many, however,
realize a moral obligation to
replace blood in the name of

made. In Virginia, two neg'roes

5 in Fairfax County. In all
Virginia, 169 negroes attend
integrated schools. In North
Carolina only 60 attend. Texas

100 of its 700 school districts,

Ahrbama, Georgia,
Mississippi, Louisana, and South
Carolina have resisted all inte­gration
so far, with the excep­tion
of the war of law and
nerves now raging in New
Orleans.
Overall, only 6% of eligible
Negro students are in integrat­ed
schools, six years after the
memorable Brown decision of
the Supreme Court.
In the North
More subtle is the situation
northward. In New Rochelle,
New York, zoning expansion
has very effectively isolated
Negro students in the Lincoln
School, reducing their repre­sentation
in the city's other
schools. Questioned on Lincoln's
94% Negro enrollment, Dr. Her­bert
C. Clish, Superintendent of
Schools, admitted that he had
never implemented any plan to
relieve the racial imbalance.

A Year Of Painful Decision

with the sands of time trickling
out just a little faster for the
rule of .the latter.
Lunch Coun~err.
It was the year of the sit-ins,
when Negro students - and
some whites - braved arrest
and expulsion to passively re­sist
the curiQus logic which dic­tated
that negroes may buy
merchandise in a sto,re, but not
thei'r lunches. By the end of
November, twenty-eight South­ern
cities had opened lunch
counters to all customers. By
the year's end, executives of
the Kress, Woolworth, and
Grant chain stores reported to
U.S. Attorney General Rogers
that racial segregation had end­ed
at lunch counters in their
stores in 69 Southern cities, but
in none of the cities of the deep
South.
It is hopeful to note that in
the 70%, of the localities deseg­regation
took place without sit­ins
and without national pub­lcity.
The remaining 30% came
tougher. For example, in Sum­ter,
South Carolina. Recorder
Raymond Schwartz told a meet­ing
of Sumter's White Citizens'
Council that it should have been
formed "not five years ago, but
twenty" and did his best to
make up for the time lag by
levying heavy fines on six
C.O.RE. members peacefully
picketing (no noise or any kind
of physical contact) a Kress
store.
But the sit-ins will continue
and more refined methods of
economic boycott will join them
to peacefully discomfort the
South to luncheon equality.

NOTRE DAME, Ind. - Two
years ago jazz enthusiasts at
Notre Dame initiated the Col­legiate
Jazz Festival because
they wanted to give college jazz
a chance to be heard. It rose
quickly from a regional Mid­Western
jazz meet to a nation­wide
festival. CFJ received en­thusiastic
response from col­lege
jazz musicians and fans,
as well as the music industry
as a whole. Now, as Collegiate
Jazz Festival enters its third
year, reports have it that it will
be even bigger and better than
in the past.
Between 25 and 30 college
groups from all over the nation
will compete this year for top
honors and prizes in the Notre
Dame fieldhouse, Apr. 21-22.
Instruments will be awarded to
the winning soloists, with the
best over-all soloist receiving a
schol-arship to the Berklee
School of Music in Boston. The
top big band and combo, in ad­dition
to soecial arrangements
by the Beridee School faculty,
will receive scholarships to the
Stan Kenton Clinics of the Na­tional
Stage Band Camp. The
overall champion group of the
festival will take back to their
campus for one year a huge
loving cup donated by Associ­ated
Booking Co.rporation.
The deadline fo'r applying to
CFJ 1961 is February 10, 1961.
Groups wishing to apply should
write for application blanks and
information to: Collegiate Jazz

Concerning the possibility of
Council interest in a student
union concession for the U,
Dave said, "There was no no­ticeable
interest taken by the
members of the Student Coun­cil
since the release of the last
issues of the STAG." He, him­self,
is in favor of utilizin.g

see a student union building

to a lack of funds, the Council
is unable t·o do very much.

Mr. Santine Capria, an alum­nus

social worker for the Catholic
Charities of Bridgeport, has
been active in promoting the
establishment of a new course
in conversation-al Spa n ish,
which is scheduled to commence
Feb. 7, in our graduate depart­ment
The purpose of this non­academic
program is to allow
members of the general public,
who have v.arious ,business and
social dealing with the Puerto
Rican population, ,to have an
opportunity of obtaining a
greater knowledge of the span­ish
language. Thirty dollars, per
semester, is the fee.
During his stay at Fairfield,
Mr. Capria's major was sociol­ogy.
He was also active in sev­eral
extra-curricular activities,
being a member of such organ­izations
-as the New Frontiers,
Sodality, and Public Affairs
Club as well as the CISL,
NFCCS, and the Manor. Upon
his graduation in 1958, Mr.
Capria received a Bachelor of
Arts degoree.
While one member of our
alumni has been instrumental
in promting this program, an­other
alumnus, Rev. Victor J.

course. Fr. Torres, who obtain­ed

"The Clancy Brothers and

Their ensambles are weightier,
their attacks cleaner, and effec­tive

the quartet has all the charm
and driving vigor of the Kings­ton
Trio, but with none of that
groups arch contrivance."
The Chad Mitchell trio is an­other
type of vocal group; their
chief claim to fame, aside from
their professionalism, is their
enormous versatility. They have
performed their folk-style mu­sic
at the Blue Angel, The Gate
of Horn, and at Carnegie Hall
with Harry Bellafonte.

round irrelevant oriental calm
its diurnal consciousness and
habitual Fairfield awakes arm­ed
for the pageant while from
a dozen valleys reassemble a
scattered flock to view the won­drous
display and drink from
the well of an ancient why with
a naive cum grano salis and so
the dream lingers till Aristotle

creeps back with its supposedly
different reality while along the
horizon rolls ·a dot of sun search­ing

Radio Club Correspondent
While taking in the breath­taking
view outside the STAG
office last Friday, Michael T.
Kiernan, the beloved, eagle­eyed
editor-in-chief, espied sev­eral
individuals cavorting about
the roof on Loyola Hall. Keen
of wit and riews hungry, he im­mediately
collared your report­er
who had almost made good
his escape from the office. On
the roof, Radio Club members
were busily string 200 feet of
aerial wire to facilitate trans­mission
from one of two small
transmitters.
Meanwhile, back in the cafe­teria,
other members of the
club could be seen connecting
this wire to the transmitter and
testing it. Problems - why
would they be stringing 200 feet
of aerial wire and testing it?
Asking the lads, "Why do you
string 200 feet of aerial wire
and test transmitters" they
answered: "The reason for this
activity is a broadcast planned
for Sunday, the eighth of Janu­ary."
Originating from a small
room in the back of the cafe­teria,
it would be the first form­al
activity of the station. Pre­viously,
there had been several
transmissions which were only
receivable in Gonzaga H'all.
The second of the small trans­mitters
was utilized for these
broadcasts. Songs of the Kings­ton
Trio, Harry Belefonte, Bob­by
Daren, and Dixieland jazz
were played. Listeners were
also treated to, "This is a test"
several times. The Radio Club,
although anxious for a laTger
transmitter, is determined to
broadcast before the exams.

Dave Royston announced that
the meetings of the ,council will
continue to be held in Xavier

Mr. Royston explained that
the ,choice of a meeting place
rests entirely with the members
of the council. In order to
change the place of assembly a
motion must be passed by the
members. Until such time the
status quo will remain. Mr.
-Royston also encouraged stu­dents
to' brave the walk to
Xavier and attend the meeting.
