Campus apathy plaques College Union Board For Michael Wiese, a lot of hard work

and an empty theater are becoming the hallmarks of his duties as president of the College Union Board, / :

Recent speeches and a concert sponsored by the C.U.B. have brought out tiny.au­diences — a fact Wiese finds frustrating.

"Most people do not understand what C.U.B. is all about," Wiese says. "It is a non-profit organization. We are trying to do our best with the students' money by providing activities and events to better the social atmosphere." : : r :

C:U.B. was formed to provide services for all students, administration, staff, and the community, according to Wiese.

Wiese; a three-year member of C.U.B., would like to see more student and faculty participation. "The events that students do attend are appreciated, especially the mix­ers, but, otherwise, there is little response

from the students or faculty," said Wiese. ,.•• The College Union Board is made up of seven committees, including the perform­ing artsy film, social, concert, video-tape» coffeehouse, ••• arid lecture committees. Wiese, says that the film' and i social ac­tivities are well attended but many other ac­tivities have "flopped."

"Every lecture that we have, we are wor­ried up until the last minute that no one will come. The chairpersons are doing the best they can," says Wiese. "We are embarrass­ed at the lack of student and faculty response and I really don't think that it is our fault," said Wise. - '

Under the direction of Betty Yeaglin, coordinator of college activities, Wiese and the-Test of the College Union Board endeavor to form a broad program of social/ educational, recreational and cultural events.

Some upcoming events sponsored'by C.U.B. include, a coffeehouse on October 22, featuring Greg Greenway. The concert committee has planned a Reggae concert featuring "Black Sheep" on the following evening.

Wiese, himself booked Milt Tatelman on October 27 to give a lecture called "The Hollywood Rip-Off," which will provide an interesting night to the tricks of movie advertising.^

All talk and no action Since the beginning of the school year

the most controversial issue on campus has been the food service. Last Monday and Tuesday night the Marist community was given the opportunity to present the reasons behind its dissatisfaction with the cafeteria food.

Here was the chance we've all been waiting for; the management of Seller's was prepared, to accommodate, but there was one slight problem. A grand total of 15 students showed up to voice their opinions.

How would you interpret this situation? This seems to indicate that in fact there is no problem with the food; everybody is quite pleased with the meals being, offered by. Seller's.

As students it sta'nds to reason that we all have full schedule's. If the food is really such a prominent -'concern to resident students, don't you agree that time could have been found to air your grievances?

Pleading ignorance is not a legitimate ex­cuse for absence at such a well publicized event. Clearly, there was general disinterest on the part of the same students who spend half of their days complaining about the food. In all fairness we can not expect the management-of Seller's to present us with another question and answer period.

Let's face it, we were given the chance and we blew it. -•. *

No problem Now that the trauma of mid-terms week is

coming to a close,- it-s time to; break away for a few days andtry to figure out just what each class we're taking-is air about. Mid­terms week really isn't all that bad — we could live without it, but at least it doesn't have that "do or die" quality of finals week, and you know there's always a second chance between now and December. Still, a test is a test and they're not fun.

This is one of - two weeks in every semester, when the.library is the hotspot at night instead of the Pub: Last Sunday night. when we finally cleared the. beer bottles from the desks, or actually walked into the library and sat down, it was a shock for most to realize that we were going to be tested on those funny little scribbles in our notebooks

and the foreign language in the textbooks. How could they reasonably expect us to . learn anything- in seven > weeks? Halt of :us are still trying to find the classrooms, f But somehow, we ail manage to get

-^through it, pulling an. all-nighter here arid there, or giving up Pub Nite to sit in the library, drawing yellow lines in textbooks. If nothing else, mid-terms week lets us all know where we stand in a given course, and it gives a sense of the testing and grading systems of teachers. • ' . So now we can all go home with the tests and papers behind us (where they belong), knowing that they won't pull anything like that on us until the last school week in December. We've got eight weeks to kill till then...no problem!

Readers AA/rite All letters must be typed triple space with a 60 space margin, and submitted to the Circle office no later than 6 p.m. Monday. Short letters are preferred. We reserve the right to edit all letters. Letters must be signed, but names may be withheld upon re­quest. Letters will be published depending upon availability of space.

Apathy and indifference

To Whom It May Concern: • On the dates of October 5th,

and October 6th Seller's and the food committee of Inter House Council, held an open meeting for the resident students of Marist College. I would like to take this moment to extend my thanks to those fifteen students who displayed interest in their food service and it's standards.

the purpose of this meeting was to voice your grievances regarding your dining. ex-, periences. As it turned out, less than 2% of the Marist population came to the meeting.

The low turn out could easily be interpreted by all concerned, that better than 98% • of. the board

diners are completely satisfied with the status quo of the dining services.

Have I been so naive. as to believe that my efforts, have been representative of Marist? Am I now to believe that you are truely satisfied with your dining ex­perience? Wake Up Marist!!! Via

. your indifference, apathy, and lack of tenacity, ypu; have once again proven to. me and to yourselves, that genuine concern

.is. not an asset of the average ' Marist student. Congratulations, , your record is consistent and still intact.

Grace Tejada . ., ..-"-: Chairman of

Food Committee

Food service meeting

To the Marist Community: In keeping with my previously

stated goal, of maintaining good communication within our com­munity, it is incumbent upon me to report the results of the food services meetings held on October 5 and 6.

The combined .attendance totalled fifteen students and two members of IHC food committee. This represents less than two per­cent of the boarding ̂ students at Marist College. .%.'•

The following is a sampling of the voiced concerns and the answers and/or action to be taken on each count: ,

Q. It appears that Seilers has been running out of hard rolls on a regular basis at lunch.

A. Agreed. As of 10/8, we have increased our order with our purveyor by 33%. This should solve the problem!

Q. The food is not consistantly served at the proper temperature.

A. Management will more carefully monitor the products served and maintain on file a record of all such temperature checks.

Q. there is too much starch in oiirdiet.

•'': - A- While it is undeniably, true that a customer could very easily find him or herself faced with a starchy diet, it is also true that a Marist College diner could avoid the starches and still enjoy a well balanced diet. Seilers will careful­ly monitor the menu with an eye toward the starches. Also, Seilers will invite Ms. Mary Campbell, ~ Registered Dietician, to offer a presentation on nutrition to the Marist community. Careful choices by individuals are para­mount in maintaining a good diet while in the academic environ­ment.

Q. The tomatoes are too hard on the deli bar.

A. The tomatoes presently be­ing sold on the produce market are not a locally grown, vine ripened product. All tomatoes currently available are shipped from other growing areas. Tomatoes grown for shipping are always inferior tasting when com­pared to a locally grown product.

'• We buy. only grade A fancy pro­duce. '/['.;:.'. i':.',"!..'̂ ;.'."V.-~«----'.-• •-•',.- •

Q. The hot chocolate machine does not dispense a sufficiently hot product.

A. The temperature was check­ed. The product was dispensed at 120°. An adjustment was made and the temperature is now at 160°.

Q. Too many eggs are cooked ahead at breakfast time.

A. As of 10/6, the second grid­dle in the kitchen has been repaired. It is now possible to

, cook eggs as the demand requires. Up until now, we had no choice but to anticipate demand. We hope you see an improvement and can enjoy a fresher product.

A full summary, of notes is. available in' the office of the Director of Dining Services. Anyone wishing to discuss the events of the meetings is welcome to see either Frank Scott or myself at any time.r We'd be happy to discuss any food service topic with you-either from the meeting or a new subject of concern to you.. . . -

I sincerely thank the fifteen of you who took the time to voice your concerns. I also, wish to en­courage, the other ninety-eight percent of you to offer input into the system.

Sincerely,. Al Oldmixon

McCann Center: Inside word on shaping up by Pat Brady

How many of you have thought about beginning to participate in your favorite sport or getting into shape?

With the McCann Center easily accessi­ble to you, there's no reason for you to put off getting athletically involved any longer.

The McCann Center is open from Mon­day to Thursday from 9 a.m. to 10 p.mM on Friday from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. and on Saturday and Sunday from 12 p.m. to 9 p.m. However, on Saturday Oct. 24 and Saturday Oct. 31, McCann will not be open until 1 p.m. because of home football games. -

Many of you may be interested in the use of the pool located in the McCann Center. The pool is open the same hours as the other facilities; however, there are better times than others to'go swimming.

From 2:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. the Marist swim team practices and from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. the Marist swim club meets. The div­ing team, the diving club and outside swim clubs also use the McCann pool.

Dick Quinn, assistant athletic director, said that before 2:30 p.m. and from 9 p.m. to 10 p.m. are the best times for Marist

12 to lead

Marist cheers by Ellen Zimmerman

The twelve girls who will lead Marist's cheering sections were selected last week after tryouts on Monday night.

This year's cheerleaders will be: Patty Bowles, Marianne Constantino, Kathleen Cummings, Lori Dyer, Debby Fuoco, Reva Goggins, Sue Goldfeder, Diane Hopkins, Diane Jackson, Barbara Joyce, Cathy Pesce and Jane Scarchilli. ,;

Out of these twelve girls, bight Will be regulars, cheering at every game; and four will b,e alternates who will fill in for girls who are absent.

Donna Stratico, manager of the cheerleaders, said that the regulars will "choose themselves" rather than be selected by herself or cheerleading coach Angela Cimorelli.

Stratico says that what makes a good cheerleader is her attitude. "I judge the girls mostly on attitude and personality,, because if they have a good attitude, they will be willing to work hard and to learn."

Though the cheerleaders are funded by the basketball team, they also cheer at foot-.

\ ball games to give the girls experience in working together.

Difficulties in finding a coach prevented the cheerleaders from being organized in time for the Homecoming game.

students to swim in the pool. The pool will be closed on Nov. 13,14, and 15 because of the Marist Swim Club Fall Meet.

For those of you wondering about the sauna, it has been closed since last spring and will reopen when repairs are com­pleted.

Another area of the McCann Center that is popular with students is the weight room, furnished with Universal weight machines. A key to these machines may be purchased for $5 when you show your ID card, or you can rent a key for $5, which will be return­ed to you when you return the key. The weight room is open the same hours as the rest of McCann.

The dance room may also be used at any time; however, this is one area of McCann that is extremely busy. For those of you in­terested injoining "a dance group, Dancer-cise meets on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday nights at 9 p.m.

The Kung Fu club meets in the dance room on Wednesday nights at 6:30 p.m. The weekends are the best times to use the dance room if you would like to be there without a large group'present.

Racquetball is a sport that is extremely popular with many Marist students. The McCann Center has four courts, which

must be reserved in advance. Call 471-3897 after 12:30 p.m. to make a reservation for that day or the next.

Reservations can be made in person after noon. There is little chance of reserving a court after 1 p.m., so you should call as soon as you can. Since the racquetball courts are so busy, a student may only reserve a court for one hour a day. There is no fee for using the court if you are a Marist student. Racquets and balls' may be rented for 25 cents each.

The fieldhouse may be used by students almost any time except between 3:30 p.m. and 6 p.m. because the men's basketball, women's basketball and women's volleyball teams practice in the fieldhouse during that time. On Wednesday mornings, the fieldhouse opens at 10 a.m.

During the bad weather, an indoor tennis court is set up in the fieldhouse in the mor­ning. From 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. the tennis team will practice on this indoor court and then the net will be left up until noon so anyone may use this court. This procedure will continue if students express interest in an indoor tennis court.

For those of you who still wish to play tennis outside, the best time to use the out­

door courts is on weekends and before 2 p.m. during the week, since the tennis team practices in the afternoon.

In the fieldhouse, there is also an indoor track, which is eleven laps to the mile. The Marist track team will be using the indoor track during practice, but the cross country team never has practice indoors so this track should be reasonably free for those of you who wish to run in the bad weather.

For those of you interested in in-tramurals, Marist has intramural competi­tion in flag football, racquetball, co-ed rac­quetball and, in the spring, softball. Mc­Cann trainer budgets all the intramurals except for softball, which is CUB spon­sored. : -

If your floor is interested in having floor competitions or a field day at McCann, you should speak to your R.A. and have him or her talk to Quinn at least 48 hours in ad­vance to see if it would be possible to have your floor activity on the date you prefer. You can arrange to have a net set up out­side for a volleyball game, have a softball day, or have relay races in the fieldhouse.

There are six inner tubes available for your use if you would like to host an "Almost Anything Goes" competition.

B-Guido's Corner by Tony Cardone, Marvin Sims, Joe Verilli, Kevin Babcock and Greg Holstein

Nancy Colagrossi, the inventor of the square bowling ball and the cement kite, has come up with another brainstorm. She plans to sell commuter kits that will contain a back pack, a list of things to do between classes and a phoney meal number. In the event that the meal number is taken, the kit will also include a book titled 100 Ways to Sneak into The Cafe.

When Frank D'Aquino was asked what he thought of the idea, he replied, "I think it's a great idea because now I won't have to hide in the milk crates anymore to get in­to the cafe."

Congratulations to Victor Torres and Mike O'Shaunessy for becoming the first male cheerleaders at Marist. Victor said after making the team, "This will be the first time I can pick up a woman at Marist and not have to worry about being chased the next morning by her boyfriend.'*

Victor's counterpart, Mike, says, "The only problem I have is which brand of pan­tyhose should I wear, Shear Energizers or Hanes." Our advice to Mike is to speak with Moose Timberlake, the Marist con­noisseur on pantyhose.

We hate to inform the girls on the fifth floor Champagnat that isn't a toothfairy but just John "mailroom" Kurtz running around in women's clothing.

B-Guido's would like to say hello to Kathy Cummings and wish her luck. When Kathy heard that she was going to be in our column her reaction was, "My lifetime fan­tasy was to be on the Gong Show but when it was cancelled I was crushed, but now I've founded B-Guido's and I can live again. Thank you, B-Guido's."

Thank you, Sellers, for your prompt ac­tion in alleviating the odor near the beverage machines, but Joe Verrilli is a lit­tle upset because now that the beverage counter is higher he needs a chair to reach the glasses. Joe says, "If one of the taller students doesn't come by I have to steal something to drink from another^tray.'' ...

. After one of the most amazing in­tramural games of the season, Bill Nixon gets intramural athlete of the week. Bill, a highly sough-after prospect for the 10-12-year-old Pop Warner League, was asked if he is nervous about appearing on the Warner Wolf Show. "Well, I guess it hap­pens to the best of them. The reason I feel they wanted me to appear on the show is to operate the videotape machine for Warner."

Bill also says, "I hope to someday play for a poor team so I can make them a horri­ble team."

Jokes What would you have if PINK was the

color of all the cars in the nation? Ans: A Pink Car-Nation. "I get no respecf," says Dick Keelan.

"Last week I went to the doctor and said, 'Doc, I'm not feeling too good. This morn­ing I looked in the mirror and I was ter­rified,' and the doctor says, *I don't know what's the matter but there's nothing wrong with your eyes.'"

put the B-Guido.'s staff picture on his or her wall. BOO!!

A big Boo to anyone who does have it on the; wall but hasn't thrown any darts at it yet. BOO!! BOO!!

Boo to Amy and Lisa for not revealing the ingredients in a red machine. BOO!!

The running for freshman zooman is-under way, and a few candidates have been nominated by the B-Guido's staff. Leading in the polls is none other than Tim Grogan, better known as "Johnny Appleseed." In a close second is Jerry'"Vito" Mastronard for his assinine adventure in an attempt to consume glass in the pub. He later was quoted as saying, "It was worth the 50 stit- . ches and a date with "Star."

Sources have revealed that Chris "Jack Lalane" McVetty wiil be holding special dancercize sessions this week, in place of Lauren Devlin, who is presently in Iraq recruiting more students. '• . • " • ;" •

Marist fights dose battle at Brooklyn. (Photo by G.Gallagher)

Cleary4ess Foxes bow 7-6 in Brooklyn

October 15,1987-THECIRCLE Page7-

Runners4th by Tim Breuer

The Marist Cross country team took fourth place in a meet held last Thursday at Van Cortlandt Park in the Bronx. Joe Burleski led the Running Red Foxes in the five mile race with a time of 26:06, follow­ed by John Lovejoy, Mark Wickham, Dave Haupt, Dennis Martin, Mike McGuire, and Paul Peterson. Princeton captured the meet with Manhattan placing second and Siena third, while Fordham took fifth in the race.

Team member Paul Peterson op­timistically commented on the team's per­formance. "I believe the team showed tremendous improvement. The times were good for this early in the season. Consider­ing that many runners believe the Van Cor­tlandt course is one of the toughest in the sport, I feel that our performance was definitely impressive."

The team has been holding intense train­ing sessions to prepare for the champion­ship meets at the end of the season. Marist will travel next to the Binghamton Invita­tional on Wednesday, October 21.

by Bill Trovers

The Marist Red Foxes found their way to Brooklyn College last. Friday night (after three hours and an unintentional stop in New Jersey) only to lose an exciting, fumble-filled, defensive battle, 7-6, to the-Kingsmen, on the astroturf in Flatbush.

"The guys lacked team discipline," com­mented head coach Mike Malet. "Fumbles really hurt us in establishing our offense. We fumbled the ball twice while deep in Brooklyn territory." Overall, Marist fumbled the ball over to Brooklyn three times, two of which were costly.

Nearing the end of the first quarter Lou Corsetti blocked a field goal attempt which gave Marist possession on their own 11-yard line. Quarterback Randy.. Rosand wasted no ; time, slipped .. through the Kingsmen defensive line, and chugged 52 yards to the Brooklyn 38-yard line. Runn­ing backs Jim Dowd and Mike Spawn com­bined for big gains and Marist found themselves on the 15. Rosand then rolled right and unsuccessively pitched the ball, only to find the pig skin smothered by _op-̂ posing players. "* .

The two teams exchanged posessions as\ the second quarter got under, way, when defensive back John Lennon intercepted an errant pass by Brooklyn's QB Vernon Jenkins on the Kingsmen 28. Marist was unable to move the ball and.was faced with a fourth and five on the Brooklyn 25. Marist elected to punt.

"A field goal would have been from 42 yards out against a strong wind," said Malet: "We decided to punt the ball hoping to place the ball out of bounds inside the five." As it turned out, punter Tom Huber's kick found "the endzone, which brought the ball, back to. the twenty, only five yards from where Marist had punted.

The Marist misfortune seemed to re­juvenate the Kingsmen as they marched 75 yards to paydirt with Jenkins rushing in

from the nine. The extra point was good" and Brooklyn took its 7-0 lead into halftime.

Marist stormed out of the dressing room and Spawn took the kickoff and ran the ball down to the Brooklyn 29. But the Red Foxes committed their second costly fum­ble as Rosand was unable to handle the snap from center Vin Ambroselli.

On the ensuing set of downs, the Marist defense held tight and forced the Kingsmen to punt, thanks to a timely quarterback sack by Tom Lawton. Marist took over on their own 33 and started rolling. Rosand (4-12 42 yds.) hit Kent Charter for a 23-yard passing gain, and Spawn scampered 12 yards which brought the ball to the 29. Ro­sand then handed to Ron Dimmie who .went in .for the touchdown. The two point conversion failed, and Marist found itself still trailing by a point, 7-6.

The two defensive squads took over with Marist having one more sustained drive towards the end of the fourth quarter, only to have Brooklyn's defense rise to the occa­sion. "They were a good team," said coach Robert Stevenson. "They came into the game with a real strong defensive game •plan, and came away with the victory." •'- "The offense played well enough to win," said Malet. "We just didn't execute when we really needed to. The running backs played very well."

That they did. Spawn rushed for 68 yards on 11 carries, Dimmie had 66 on eight, Dowd had 48 on 11, and QB Rosand had 41 on 10 attempts.

EXTRA POINTS

Injured quarterback Jim Cleary will be out at least two more-weeks due to his cut throwing hand. Cleary required numerous stitches to close a wound that he got when his arm broke through a pane of glass last Saturday night after the Iona victory.

The Marist College Soccer Team on the strength of two wins and one tie in their last three games improved their record to 7-3-2 this past week.0-

Marist, who slipped down a notch in the latest state rankings to No.-10 defeated RPI, and NYU while tying CW Post.

In the RPI (Rensselaer Politechnic In­stitute), Ian Arscot and Tore Udahl scored for Marist to pace the Foxes. Marist goalie Andy "Cricket" Homola made 6 saves while his counterpart, Greg Brown had 10 stops for RPI. . * On Wednesday Marist traveled again this time to CW Post. And when the game began it looked like Marist would come away with another victory- but a funny thing happened on the wayto a win — they t i e d . • • • . • : • • •

Juniors John Goff and Bobby Cooper got the goals for Marist with the assists go­ing to Tim Buchanon arid Goff respective­ly. : . •••:.• ' • - •-"•

But Post wasn't about to die as they countered with two goals of their own in the second half by Hector Juarez. One on a penalty shot at the 23:00 minute mark and then on an unassisted goal'with just :30 left in the game. Neither team managed to get a goal in either of the overtime periods.

Marist once again outshot their oppo­nent, this time by an 18-14 margin with Cricket Homola making 8 saves. Marist was victimized by 13 offsides calls m the game.

- Saturday Marist was once again vic­torious this time at the expense of NYU as Tim Buchanon got both Marist goals.

After a scoreless first half Marist came out determined not to let this one slip away. BuChanon's first goal was the result of some fine passing from the Norweigan Connection. It was Senior OyVind Larsen crossing the ball to Torie Udahl who skip­ped it on to Buchanon who netted it to give Marist the lead. "v.

Less than five minutes later it was Buchanon again, this time a solo effort as he" intercepted an NYU pass intended for goalie Maurie Cohen. Buchanon knocked the ball loosefrom the sliding Cohen and walked it in to give Marist the final margin of victory. : .' '•' .

Marist outshot NYU 24-3 with Andy Homola recording his second shutout of the year with only one save.

Marist plays again this Saturday against St. Peter's at home game time is 1:30. The next home appearance, for the Foxes after that won't be until October 28 when they play Pace.

A (.loser Look

by Barry Lewis - '

With no warning, it hits you. As it would with a car traveling 60 miles per hour, the

• wall is a devastating force that strikes at you with punishing power. But you see, they all must hit it. On October 25th 16,000 men and women will attempt to break thru that wall, in the 26.2 mile New York City Marathon. Included in that array of citizens from nearly every nation in the world, will be a member of our own little community here at Marist.

When you first see Mike Chung walk along the gravel that leads to Donnelly Hall, your perception of the senior with the computer-science major might be, "nice guy-but no wall breaker." Since 1979, Mike has successfully broken the im­aginary, but crushing wall that hits all marathon runners at a particular point in their race. For Mike and his N.Y.C. run,

Marist marathon man year the field of runners total 16,000 and Mike would like" nothing better than to be the 3,500 finisher.

"In '79 I really had two walls to break thru. It was incredibly hot that year, and by that point comes across the celebrated 59th Street bridge.

"When you start to cross over the bridge, you are hitting the 15th mile of your run. That also happens to be the highest elevation in the marathon. For some, the wall might come a little later, but for me, that point is the roughtest. Your feet tells you to stop, and your heart wants you to finish. Between the two, your mind convinces the rest of the body to complete the race." ;

In his first N.Y.C. marathon run back in '79, Mike finished 8,100 out of 12,000 in a time of 4 hours and 10 minutes. Last year with two thousand more participants, he place 6,900 in 3 hours and 49 minutes. This

the 18th mile on 1st Avenue, I was ready to collapse. It was my first marathon and I didn't want to stop, so I just started walk­ing a bit. The rest of the runners encourage you to keep going, so I soon started to build back up my pace and finished the race."

Mike contends that more than anything else, it is the crowds of pn-lookers and the pure excitement of the race that pushes him to the finish line. "The marathon takes you through all five boroughs, and there isn't one empty spot along the entire race. Peo­ple offer you juicer water, anything you want. I usually find myself getting hungry by the 21st mile and last year while running in the Bronx, I saw a guy with a bagel. I asked him for half arid it was eating that half-a-bagel that gave me my second wind."

"I also met last year a 65 year old couple who just love running in marathons, and

spent the middle of the race just talking with. them. The spectators are really great because there isn't just one row, but 10 rows deep of people just wishing you the best. At times it seems as though everyone in New York is either running in the race or watching it."

He complains that he's not serious enough about running and truly thanks all the people who motivate him. Training for the race begins around August 20th, runn­ing 50-60 miles a week. Mike says that he has no specific diet while in training, but admits to sneaking down to the^deli for subs as the race date gets closer. Still with all the pre-preparations at hand, what if finally boils down to is setting your mind straight.

"If you tell yourself you can, then you will. Running 26 miles is not easy, but run­ning 20 miles and not finishing is a lot worse."
