"All right, I will," said R. Twinkle. "You are unhappy for
two reasons. First, because you have been so busy stuffing
your intellect that you have gone and starved your psyche. I've
got nothing against learning, mind you, but a person oughtn't
w neglect the pleasant, gentle amenities of life-the fun
things. Have you, for instance, ever been w a dance?"
Agathe shook her head.
"Have you ever watched a sunset? Written a poem? Smoked
a Marlboro Cigarette?"
Agathe shook her head.
"Well, we'll fix that right now!" said R. Twinkle and gave her
a Marlboro and struck a match.
She ptiffed, and then for the first time in twelve or fifteen
years, she smiled. "Wow!" she cried. "Marlboros are a fun thing!
What flavor! 'What filter! What pack or box! What a lot to
like! From now on I will smoke Marlboros, and never have
another unhappy day!"
"Hold!" .said R. Twinkle. "Marlboros alone will not solve
your problem-only half of it. Remember I said there were
two things making you unhappy?"
"Oh, yeah," said Agathe. "What's the other one?"
"How long have you had that bear trap on your foot?'~
said R. Twinkle.
"I stepped on it during a field trip in my freshman year/~
said Agathe. "I keep meaning to have it taken off."

"Land sakes, what a relief!" said Agathe, now totally happy,
and took R. Twinkle's hand and led him w a Marlboro vendor's
and then w a justice of the peace.
Today Agathe is a perfectly fulfilled woman, both intellectwise
and personalitywise. She lives in a darling split-'evel

HAPPINESS CAN'T BUY MONEY
October 10. 1962
Can educatir)fi bring happiness?
This is a question that in recent years· has caused much
lively debate and several hundred stabbings among American
college professors. Some contend that if a student's intellect
is sufficiently aroused, happiness will automatically follow.
Others say that w concentrate on the intellect and ignore the
rest of the personality can only lead to misery.
I myself favor the second view, and I offer in evidence the
well-known case of Agathe Fusco.
Agathe, a forestry major, never got anything less than 3
straight "A"', was awarded her B.T. (Bachelor of Tre€1'!) in
only two years, her M.S.B. (Master of Sap and Bark) in only
three, and her D.B.C. (Docwr of Blight and Cutworms) in
only four.
Academic glory was hers. Her intellect was the. envy of
e.very intellect fan on campus. But was she happy? The
answer, alas, was no. Agathe'-she knew not why-was miserable,
so miserable, in fact, that one day while walking across
CltlllpUS, she was suddenly so overcome with melancholy that
she flang herself, weeping, upon the statue of the Founder.
By and by a liberal arts major named R. Twinkle Plenty came
by with rus yoyo. He noted Agathe's condition. "How come
you're so unhappy, hey?" said R. Twinkle.
"SUppoS'iil you tell me, yon dumb old liberal arts major,~
replied Agathe peevishly.

THE FUTURE
"So long as the layman does
not tend to regard himself as the
Churcb, but instead think,s of
himself as belonging to the
Church (Owned and operated by
the professional clergy), he will
not naturally tend to defend the
Churoh (himself) simply because
he will not think of himself as
being attacked."
Donald Thorman in
The Emerging Layman
Through the years, many
groups On the' Fairfield campus
have attempted to organize and
activate a campus radio dub.
Some, of' their 'successes wer~
great, others, unfortunately, produced
a momentary fad.
This year, the Radio Club has
set out again to prove that Fa/irfield
is both capable and deSIrous
of having a college radio station..
This ,annual event pessimisti-.
cally reminds us of the coming
of Spring which promises much ,
but sets' one to \v'Oudering how·.
long it will be before the Summer's
heat w1t.hers any growth.
We hope this. promise of the:
Radio Club comes to fruition; but,
our skepticism stems from having-witnessed
the death of many
clubs when the "fun" is gone and
when its originatin'g forces 'grad-'
nate.
From an optimistic point of,
view, we can see WVOF widen-.
ing the scope of student'communication..
Radio 'c:an do' more'
than entertain..Properly used, it
oon deepen our knowledge of
tbe world and of ourselves. Radio,
especially on the campus, ean experJment
with new means to lead
men to t\ruth and knowledge, and
to unify the student community.
Tbe STAG welcomes WVOF'
to the campus and wishes it long
life. We hope the promi"ses of the
"Voice" will· be met and surpassed
by the dedicated members of
this club.

Although television and radio
consistently invade our homes
with the blaring locution of "instant"
news, tihe printed word
will long remq.in the basic source
of knowledge to our civilization.
Printed news analysis and coverage
continues to improve and expan
d among the competing
media.
In short, tbe newspaper is vital
to the life of our environment
and society, and an integral function
within ii. Like any institution,
it strives for certain immediate
ends in perfecting this source
of knowledge. The newspaper
must not only inform, it must aJso
be a "good thing" - the basis of
excellence.
Whether we are Ca,tholios or
not, the newspaper. is one of
man's severa,l crutches in his SUIr-ing.
Each class's abilities records
new highs in the~r statistics. Our
reputation spreads throughout
the Eastern Seaboard and the
Midwest. Here on this campus
student activities continually expand
in' scope and variation.
Academically, we are constantly
being examined by Alumni and,
Graduate schools, and nnw rumour

is in the making.
The Academic Committee, if

secular, public morality has often
relied on the "crusading"
press.. The' New York Heraid
Tribune's recent campaign concerningtbe
rights of' traffic violators
arrested because of insuffioient
funds is one example. And
bhis 'crusade was not political; it
concerned man's rights.
Daily metropolitan papei's also
serve as the contemporail:y "forum"
of tmI' country. Many subscribe
to syndicated columnists
renowned for their erudition in
certain fields. Scores of local
dailies and hi-weeklies eitber
subscribe to such sy~dicated features
or produce bheir own Sunday

of opinion is essential within an
eduoated populace. To neglect
the "forum" concept in communiootion
is to short-change the value

In less than one week, the varsity basketball team
will take to the hardwood and begin their pre-season
practice. Returning for his fourth year as head coach is I'
George Bisacca who has compiled an impressive 54-21 won-
lost record over his three seasons, each year bet- i
tering the previous season's record. Rather than answer "
the question of whether'the Stags can top last year's
20-5 mark, the paper will preview,all or most of the opponent's
teams several weeks prior -to the game and let
you, the students, decide for yourselves.
When -the varsity begins practice next Monday you 'I
can expect at least twelve upperclassmen to don the
blue and yellow practice'shirts for the warm-up ses~ isions.
Leading the list of returnees are co-;~aptains Nick I
Macarchuk (16.2) and Bob Hutter (18.6). The other returning
starter from last year's "Iron Five" is senior I
backguard Fred Weimiller (14.8). Behind these come
seven men who saw action in only half or even fewer,
games. They are 6'7" Frank McAnulty who appeared I ' TEA toour, GOO1'\
