"Ourlives are constricted by our fearof rape. Fear of rape limits ourmobility - we are afraid to hitchhike,afraid to go out alone atnight, afraid of ass, crotch andbreast grabbers as we walk alongthe street. Fear of rape costs usmoney - we move to more expensiveneighborhoods and takecabs instead of public transportation.Fear of rape infringeson our space - many women areafraid to wait on street cornersfor someone or jog alone inCentral Park."Luba Zimmerman, Rape TaskForce Coordinator,. N.O.W.,N.Y.C., stated : in her speechRape, Fantasy and Fact, "Rapeisnot a sexual crime. It is a crimeof violence. It is done to humiliateand degrade women."Ms. Zimmerman expressed herdisbelief of the existing mythsabout men's sexuality whichjustify rape. "Men aren't sexualperverts. Men's sexual behavioris controllable! Rape is notnatural male behavior!"To applause, Ms. Zimmermanconcluded her speech suggestingthat women make sure theirangry feelings about rape areheard. "We have to _see thatrapists are punished. They haveto know they can't get away withit! Rape damages, ruins, andhurts one half the-population ofthis country. We are going to getangry and fight in a rational way- with, logic and statistics. We are.going to get angry and fight. Andwe are going to win!"A demonstration in self-defensewas given by Sara Young of BardCollege. Gary Zwerdling; a.Marist junior, assisted her. Whiledemonstrating basic techniquesof Ikido, Ms. Young gave practicaladvice. "If you punchsomeone^ put you're whole bodybehind it. Elbows are great,they're deadly! Aim for the solarplexus, it's a tender spot. Don'tbe mesmerized by the assailant'sweapon. Think of his knife as anextension of his arm. Don't be asitting duck - get out of the way!"Following the' demonstrationthe audience broke up into groupsfor workshops on rape andracism, consciousness raising formen or women and self-defensefor women.Career Day to FeatureMedia RepsKAREN DUVERNEYJACKMANYou may have a chance to talkwith Jennifer O'Neill's manager,"Ken Berman or well knownpublisher and author, BerkshireTravelers, if you attend theCommunications Career Day onTuesday, December 9.Larry Snyder, Career Counselorhas recruited guests fromall the areas of Communication.W.C.B.S. and W:H.V.W. willrepresent the radio field; N.B.C.will represent television.

PAGE 2SkydiversBy Winnie Saitta"Sky diving has caught on veryquickly at Marist," said EdJennings, the president of the skydiving club. "147 students havesigned up and by Thursday 30 ofthem will have jumped."The major thrust of the club isto give more students the opportunityto jump. "In order to dothis," Ed says, "we'll need a lotof money and the schools supportso we can earn it." The' clubwould like to put $10 towards eachstudents first jump. The firstjump costs $45. This fee includesthe rental of equipment and a fivehour instruction period whichcovers emergency procedure,landing techniques, and alsowhen to pull the dummy rip cord(which is a replacement for realcord which opens the parachute).The costs of jumps after theinitial one is $14.When the students learned thaton the first five jumps there is aspecific static line which opensthe chute automatically, theybecame more at ease. Studentsare supposed to pull the dummyrip cord while attached to thestatic line so that they canpractice pulling the rip cord whenthey free fall. Ed said, "Youreally must be thinking, that'sthe important thing. Out of 14people who went out on their firstjump only four remembered toJumpTHE CIRCLEpull the dummy rip cord." Therewere no casualties and most ofthe jumpers felt it was thegreatest thing they ever did.Ed says, "It's amazing whenyou free fall."On a free fall thejumper holds an arch and thenfalls with their belly towards theground and then goes into analmost stand-up position andreturns to the belly position.Ajumper will fall 700-800 feet on afree fall jump before his chutefully opens. Ed says, "The clubhopes to be able to competeagainst other colleges such asAlbany, Genesco, and Dutchesswhich already have sky divingclubs, in the future.Room Scholarships AvailableBy Gerald KellyIn the first issue of Circle thisyear there appeared an articleabout students who had beenawarded a Room Scholarship forthe <strong>1975</strong>-76 academic year.The Financial Aid Officewishes to make it known that alimited number of RoomScholarships will be madeavailable for the secondsemester.The award will be based uponthe criteria of financial need,academic standing of at least a2.5 cumulative index* andsignificant positive contributionsto the residence halls.The recipients will be chosenby the Room Scholarship Com--Marist AsksByTinalracaApprocimately $3.7 million wasrequested by Marist College forfederal aid. Title three • of theHigher Education Act of 1965formally known as Aid toDeveloping Institutions, isavailable to small colleges whodo not have enough resources tooffer a high quality of education.Marist College has applied again,after being turned' down lastyear, for this aid. According toDr. Margaret Olson, member ofthe coordinating group, lastyear's proposal was very simplisticand she has since spenttime in Washington, D.C. readingsuccessful proposals to gain aninsight as to the type of proposalthat is accepted. "It is a majoreffort," says Dr. Olson. "Maristhas devoted a lot of resources andpeople" in writing the proposalshe adds. The coordinating groupincludes Dr. Olson, Judy Samoff,mittee which will be comprised ofGerard Cox, Associate Dean forAcademic Affairs, FrederickLambert, Director of CampusLife, Gerald Kelly, Director ofFinancial Aid, and a studentrepresentative from each,of theresidence halls.The procedures which will befollowed in the selection will be asfollows: 1) the student files withthe Financial Aid Office for theRoom Scholarship - thenecessary paper work is thesubmission of an Application forFinancial Aid and a FinancialStatement; 2) the Financial AidOffice will Contact theHousemasters or the ResidentCoordinators for an evaluation ofthe applicants- from theirand Ernestine Chapman. Thetitle planning committee includes16 faculty and staff members.Originally this aid went mainlyto Southern Black colleges untilpressure from other smallcolleges, on the office ofeducation expanded theavailability of the aid.Ultimately, the committeesubmitted <strong>20</strong> separate activitiesthey propose to do with the aid.Basically, the money will bespent on strengthening thecurriculum at Marist. Concentrationwill be given to thepsychology department, criminaljustice, communication arts, andenvironmental studies. Otherexamples of these activities areexpansion of higher educationcollege program, establishmentof a bachelor of public administration,integration ofcommunity service in thecurriculum, establishment ofupper development nursingrespective halls; 3) The Committeewill meet prior to theinter-session to consider theapplicants; 4) all applicants willbe notified during the intersessionas to whether or. not theyhave been awarded the RoomScholarship.The amount of the award is $295for the semester.The only provision is that therecipient continue his or herresidence in a Marist Collegeresidence facility for the <strong>1975</strong>-76spring term.Students who think that theyare deserving of considerationshould not hesitate to place theirrequest at the Financial AidOffice.Washingtonprogram, coaching certificateprogram, expansion of the officeof career development, setting uplife experience for credit, andsetting up a new system of advisement.The aid will be . used "institutionwide" according to Dr.Olson, and will be spent over afour to five year period: Maristwill not know whether or not itsproposal has been accepted untilspring.According to Dr. Olson, the aidwill "put Marist on a: morecompetitive basis with othersmall colleges." "It will helpMarist survive and maintainitself." The action was taken tohelp Marist better the quality ofeducation offered.The proposal appears as alarge volume and is available inDr. Olson's office for the Maristcommunity.Parking Lot PlannedA temporary parking lot isplanned for construction alongthe hill behind the south side ofSheahan House. The temporarylot, announced early this week,will try to alleviate the need ofmore parking spaces on campus.About 100 spaces will beprovided."We realize something had tobe done over the summer aboutthe parking situation;" saysAnthony Campilii, BusinessManager at Marist, "however,we fell behind schedule becauseof the strike by the constructioncompany during the.summer."The strike delayed completion ofdrainage and sewage pipes in theSheahan parking lot.Glenn Looney, president ofCommuter Union, is circulating apetition demanding the . administrationto take steps toprovide adequate parking spacesby Dec. 1. Looney hopes for <strong>15</strong>00signatures. 'With the temporary parkingplan, Looney still plans on goingahead with the petition."I still plan on followingthrough with the petition," saysLooney, "but if the temporary,parking lot is to the satisfactionofthe students then I. will notsubmit the petitions and I willcall off the strike."—Looney concluded that thesituation depends upon administrativeaction by theThanksgiving recess. Looneyfeels that it is "a lack of forsighton the college's .part" that theproblem has lasted so long."Everything depends upon theadministration's action. If it's notto the approval of the students wewill follow, through with ourdemands."Later this week, Looney is"meeting with Edward Waters,Vice - President of the college todiscuss parking.The Maintenance departmentis in the process of filling theholes and leveling the land for thetemporary parking lot.

Dr.Sloan received much of histraining in sex therapy byworking in conjunction with theMasters and Johnson team in St.Louis.The thrust of Dr. Sloan's addresswas toward a betterawareness and understanding ofthe human body and the sexualfunctions that are an intricateHandicappedBy Thomas McTernanJoe Hines had fulfilled hislifetime dream. He was afireman. But his bright futurewas clouded by a seriousmotorcycle accident and now,eight years later, he is theassistant director of the Office ofSpecial Services.He had graduated fromLourdes H.S. in Poughkeepsie,where he lived all his life. Hewent south to become a firemanin New York City and remainedthere until his transfer toArlington in 1964, where he waspromoted to lieutenant in 1966.His staircase to success suddenlycollapsed on the night ofJuly 12, 1967. .,• 'The mishap left him totallyblind and while convalescing athome for a year after his four -month hospital stay, Joe began toretrieve the scattered bits andmap out a new future. ."I had always wanted to be afireman since I was a kid," Joesaid. "After I lost my sight Irealized that I didn't have enougheducation to get a good job so Iwent back to college."But first, he made the trip toMorristown, N.J., in December,1968, where he was trained to usehis seeing - eye dog, Siri.He enrolled in Marist thefollowing September with nodefinite plans for a career. Hemajored in American Studies butdeveloped an interest for counselingwhile working summers asa counselor for blind high schoolstudents at Syracuse University."From then on, I wanted to be acounselor in a college," heremembers.After graduating cum laude in1973, Joe went on to Syracusewhere he received his masters inCounseling Psychology this pastJanuary. He returned to Maristshortly thereafter and was informedby Deans Wade andWaters of an open in. the counselingdepartment. And whenEileen Best, whom he replaced,left for a position at Dutchesspart of it. Dr. Sloan believes thatsuch an understanding comesabout only through an awarenessof the total sexual experience asbeing for personal pleasure aswell as procreation. He emphasizedthat the sexual experiencewas more than merephysical contact; it is a deep andsensitive experience in nonverbalcommunication. Accordingto Dr. Sloan if is onlywhen we realize this, have wereached the. ultimate in physicalcommunication.Dr. Sloan began by giving aslide presentation; then he wentinto the functions and changesthat occur before, during, andafter sexual experience; and heconcluded by showing a movieexemplifying the effectiveness ofnon-verbal communicationthrough the physical.HelpCommunity College just beforethe spring semester began, Hinestook over as assistant director.' Joe is very happy in his presentposition. "I think Marist is reallyfantastic. I enjoy college - agestudents and the atmosphere theycreate. I also enjoy helping themin planning and developing theirfutures."He feels his role is to "providean opportunity for disabledstudents to develop a function totheir fullest. capabilities, toachieve expertise and be competitive,and to take part in the"mainstream." He added, "As"far as I'm concerned there is nodifference between a handicappedperson and the non -..handicapped .person.; except A thehandicap." ":•Although no longer is he able to .-actively participate in sports (heplayed basketball, baseball andfootball in H.S.), Joe still readsand listens to sports, especiallyhis favorites -the football Vikingsand the baseball Giants. He alsomaintains a gun collection fromearlier hunting days and is theproud owner of a 1930 Model - AFord,Recently Joe has become involvedin community affairs. "Iwant to get involved in localpolitics because I care about thecommunity -where it is, where itis going, and how it will develop."He also pointed out that he isdisturbed in the lack of planningin the growth of this area.Director of the town ofPoughkeepsie Lions Club since1973, Joe has just completedmoving to LaGrange where helives with Terri, his wife of threeyears.Even though he has been hereless than a year, Joe is optimisticabout his future at Marist. Hewould like to remain in a positionthat works with students but alsoone that involves a decision -making capacity. "Students haveideas and I have ideas to makethis a better place and I want tobe in a position to put these ideasinto practice."Drugs <strong>No</strong> Problem On CampusBy FRANK KINGand MARK PLAMONDONAccording to early results fromthe community psychology classsurvey, drugs are not a problemhere at Marist. Although —60—percent^ of; students., surveyedsaid drugs are easily accessable,—- 84-r— percent stated therewas no problems with drug use oncampus.". This is one area of the surveywhere the, results are in. Resultsin other areas such asdisciplinary action, places tostudy, and resource use are beingcompiled at present.

Theplay abounds with love andlovers, both satisfied andunrequited, parents, faculty andfootball, all woven together indance and song. Atwater wins thegame, but the trickery isdiscovered before the happyending.According to director Cassale,the show is a good piece ofAmericana. "I don't think it'scorny. People can come andlaugh at what American collegesused to be like. I think the hardestthing with this show was to makesure we didn't push it too far andmake it a farce. We had to capturewhat 1917 was really like."The music for the show is underthe direction of Barbara Wooley,and the choreography wascreated by Linda Lane andClaudia Post.The costumes, rented fromBrooks VanHorn, are "stunning"according to Cassale.This production is the <strong>20</strong>thmusical under the direction ofCassale, who teaches English anddrama at Rhinecliff Union FreeSchool and is a member of theboard of governors of the ValleyTheatre Company."I've never worked with such afun group of people and I think itwill show," remarked Cassale,who urges all those "who want tohave an enjoyable evening to justcome and relax and enjoythemselves."The show will go up Thursday,Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m.and Sunday at 2:30 p.m.Reservations can be madethrough Friday at the box officein Champagnat Hall.lif"?£JK. .' • i* .1


PAGE 4 THE CIRCLE NOVEMBER <strong>20</strong>, <strong>1975</strong>A Tribute,,Raymond Weiss influenced this campusand its people more than anyone I know.When he attended Marist with me, he hadtwo special non - academic skills - carpentryand flowers. He was boss of the crew whichput the roof on the present gym building, andworked with Brother Paul Ernest/ one of ourteachers, on all the doors and wooden trimfor the building. He also supervised the floralbeds around the College, which centeredaround Greystone (Fontaine was not thenbuilt).As a youngster, he loved baseball and wasa slick-fielding first baseman. As a teenagerin Astoria, he competed against a blond kidfor the first base position and won it. Theblond boy's name was Whitey Ford. He alsoserved as an usher in an Astoria movietheater, where he had to contend with theantics of unruly urchins like LaurenceSullivan.He played for the Marist basketball teamas a_guard. Later, as a teacher, he helpedorganize the official Marist basketball team,and served as the coach for the first game -- acontest against the New Paltz J.V. - beforeasking Gary Mendez to take over. He continuedhis interest in Marist athletics, andcould often be seen watching football,basketball, or crew.When the College began its major constructionin the 60% Raymond became thelandscape designer. Working off a limitedbudget, he planned the attractive entrancesto Sheahan, Leo, andChampagnat. He alsoplanted the flowering trees in front of theChapel. There is hardly an area of ourcampus that has not been touched by histhoughtful work. The trees and shrubs heplanted will give pleasure to Marist.peoplelong after those of us who knew him personallyhave left the scene.Raymond enjoyed the respect of thefaculty. He was intelligent, sensitive, fair,and had common sense. Whenever faculty oradministration needed a representative foran important committee, his name surfaced.He was elected to the Committee on FacultyDevelopment when he was in Argentina onsabbatical -in clear defiance of the maxim"out of sight, out of mind/' When I asked forsuggestions for the Search Committee for theAcademic Dean, Ray's name appeared onmore letters than any other faculty or staffperson.Most of us will think of his major contributionas academic: teaching, research,planning, advisement... I prefer toremember his personal influence on so manyothers.He died as he lived -- courageous, self -contained, sensitive to the needs of others, aliving example of devotion to one's fellowman and of faith in God.Linus Richard FoyThe CIRCLE Editors and staff wish to extend our deepest sympathyto the family and friends of Dr. Raymond Weiss. It is to the regret ofthe entire Marist Community to have lost a devoted teacher, advisorand friend. -Just For CommutersTo all commuters:Last Thursday, 11-13-75, aplanning committee of concernedcommuters met to discussproblems facing the student bodyas a whole, and commuters inparticular.One major problem that seemsto face any; organization is thewide diversity of interests amongits members.

Idon't think anybody has the rightto take someone else's life.Peggy Jeffries C - 512: I thinkthat probably in her case if therewas some hope she should havebeen allowed to live, but I thinkpeople should be allowed to die ifthey want to. She shouldn't beallowed to die because she can'tmake the decision herself.Tom Cook L-103:1 would havedecided to let the parents pull theplug on her, for the simple factthat she's just surviving becauseof machines. Also, she is-takingup equipment that could be usedin saving someone else's life inthat hospital.Mike Maloney, C - 717:1 wouldhave taken it off. I would have lether die. If she could think, if shecould communicate, if she couldprove she is alive, fine. But whathas happened, in essence, is thather parents are being strungalong by technologicalinadequacies. They can't cureher. In essence, she's dead. I'dhave to let her parents pull theplug because it's putting a lot ofstrain on their lives.Mary Foster, C - 726:1 think thejudge copped out, to tell you thetruth. He had to say, "<strong>No</strong>, don'tpull the plug," because of the facthe'd be acting like God decidingwhether someone would live ordie. What would I have done? 1would have told them to pull theplug. Definitely. That girl's notliving. They say some peoplehave lived for months, evenyears, in a coma, but the fact isshe's going to be some kind of avegetable when she gets out ofthat coma as "far as I can see..Eileen Carmody, Commuter: 1think the parents didn't wanttheir daughter to suffer, so I thinkit's up to them.Matt Houl, S - 512: First of all, Idon't think the courts should havebeen involved in it. Unfortunately,the courts did getinvolved. I think the wholedecision should have been left upto the parents and the priest.Dan Edgecomb, Commuter: Iwould have pulled the plug in theartificial machines because thebody is not an artificial machine.It is a human creation arid it doesnot deserve to be artificially keptalive to an extraordinary degreeif it cannot sustain itself.John Davern, C - 613: I thinkthe judge doesn't have the rightover life and death, but I feel thatjn view of the situation he couldhave allowed the respirator to beturned off.Pedro Cuadra, Commuter: Iwould have done exactly thesame thing the judge did. Whenyou're judging human life, you'rerunning into many differentfactors. Who has the say? Shedoesn't. The courts don't have thesay. And the parents definitelydon't have the say.aS*'Peggy JeffriesPedro CuadraTeacher Ed Makes Changes Present TenseDAVID ROBERTSTeacher Education at Maristhas made changes in its <strong>1975</strong> -1976 program. The result is abroader program available to thestudent. Mrs. Elizabeth <strong>No</strong>lan,director of teacher educationsays; "the changes are makingfor a much more relaxed atmospherein teacher education.There is now a greater emphasisplaced on the students^contactwith adolescents."

Ms.Nye, a graduate from Penn StateUniversity who holds a mastersin phys-ed, not only has experiencein basketball, but alsohas her own philosophy regardingthe sport. Dena Kenny, ajunior at Marist and a member ofthe team described thisphilosophy by saying, "Our coachinsists on getting the other teamtired before we are." Dene said,"We are going to work togetheras a team this year, including ourcoach. She wants us too to makedecisions even those concerningwho starts and who plays. Everydecision on the team will be madeby the team, not by one person."Sue Baroni, a sophomore atMarist says, "The team has a lotof potential. There are moreplayers and we have moreheight," Sue said, "Our coach isgood. She knows what she'stalking about. She can teach well,she's very organized and she'sgot a lot of spunk."The team practices twice everyday of the week, usually once inthe afternoon and once in theevening. The girls feel that theyare in the best shape they haveever been in.The team has entered theHudson Valley Women's AthleticConference and will play aneleven-game regular seasonschedule.Their season opener will benext Saturday, <strong>No</strong>v. 29, at 6 p.m.against Iona at Dutchess CommunityCollege. Their only otherhome game is scheduled for Dec.11 against Mercy College.Try-outs were held on Oct. <strong>20</strong>and the team was announced onOct. 27. There are 13 girls on theteam. There is one senior and fivefreshmen. Dena Kenny said, "Welost our best shot from last year,but we've got some pretty goodfreshmen.. They are all experienced.I think it is good wehave a young team because we'llknow how to work with eachother."Other members of the teaminclude Eileen Gregg, juniorsRobin Smallwood, Ann Cullinane,Keggnay Green; sophomore AnnGoger; and freshman WandaGlenn, Andrea Holubowitch andKathy I^auckner.Basketball Season Prospects Foxes EndBy THOMAS MC TERNANImproved depth, scoring fromthe backcourt, and strongerrebounding appear to be the keysto the <strong>1975</strong>-76 varsity basketballseason.Head coach Ron Petro, enteringhis tenth season with a .131-;100'-, career won-lost record;-isimpressed with what he has seen.in practice so far. "We have moredepth and could use eight or nineplayers in a game this year insteadof five or six."The team will be led up front bysenior co-captains Earl Holmesand Ray Murphy. Holmes, a 6-5center - forward, was named tothe All-CACC team last year afterleading the team in points scored(477) and rebounds (11.0 pergame). Murphy, a 6-4 forward,has shown good improvementover last year, when he averaged11.3 points ,and 6.9 rebounds agame.The other forward slot will befilled according to the situation,according to Petro. Likelycandidates are freshman WillieThomas, and sophomores JohnMcKee and Neil Lajeunesse.McKee (6-4) and Lajeunesse (6-6)both starred on the J.V. team lastThe Running Red Foxes,missing their number two runnerBrian Costine, placed 23rd of 58teams entered in the NCAADivision III National CrossCountry Championships^ atFranklin Park in Boston this pastSaturday. Costine, who is anexceptional runner in the bigmeets, injured his ankle just twodays before the championshipsand could not accompany theteam on the trip. Charley Gysin,who was brought up from the JVsto replace Costine, could manageonly a displacement role in his6th place finish for the team.Fred Kolthay paced Maristwith a. 43rd place finish, missingAil-American, status by just 18seconds or 18 places.

DePercin (5-10)led the team in assists last year(173) and is expected to run theoffense again. Pettus, a 6-1junior, will team with returneePaul Kane to give the Foxes theirbest shooting backcourt inseveral years. "They will give usa constant scoring threat in thebackcourt for the first time infive years," notes Petro. Kane, a6-2 sophomore, averaged 5.2 ppg.while seeing limited action on thevaristy, may also be employed inthe frontcourt against smalleropponents such as King's and St.Thomas.The team opens their 26-gameslate against Iona at DutchessCommunity College beginning atRunners CompeteIn Championship8 p.m. They will open theirconference schedule thefollowing Tuesday, Dec. 2, athome versus Kings.

The Gaelsalso have four outstanding freshmanprospects, in CharlieAliberti, Lester George, CedrickCannon and Dave Brown.However, Petro retains hisoptimism. "We played close thepast few years (91-90 loss indouble overtime last year) andthey may be a little young andinexperienced at this stage,especially with a new coach."Petro is assisted by newcomerFrank Davis and Ron Hildreth,who will also coach the J.V.squad that opens their season asa preliminary to the varsitymatch with Kings Dec. 2.Bob Coufal was Marist's second second man, especially when heman placing 133rd of the 295 is such a big-meet runner asrunners who finished the racewith a 26:29 clocking.

All;in all, the team wasbeset by the largest number ofinjury and sickness problems ithad had during the year.Marist Coach Rich Stevenssummed up the performance andmeet in the following manner:"It is very tough to replace yourBrian. Last year Brian was ourtop man in the Nationals beingthe only runner to top Fred allseason. It's especially hard tolose your 2nd man in such a bigand important meet as this onewhere everyone around you isalso good. We figured whereBrian's loss alone cost us over 100points and at least an 18th placefinish (the team had been ranked19th in the country going into themeet). The other injuries andsicknesses hurt us too. There isno telling how high we could haveplaced had not the hard luckbeset us as SMU placed 5th andwe only lost to them in their owninvitational by three points at thehalf-way mark of the season thisCONTINUED ON PAGE &Best SeasonBy THOMAS MC TERNANBack in September, coach"Doc" Goldman could see thatthisjwas no ordinary.soccer.teairi..But the final results were stillmore than even he could foresee.Closing out with a 10-0 win overBloomfield last Tuesday, the RedFoxes concluded their bestseason in their 13-year existencewith an 11-3 record, their firstCACC championship and theirsecond straight ECAC tournamentbid. They declined toparticipate in the ECAC tourneydue to physical ills and lateseasonlosses to RPI and KingsPoint.The team's strength was theirability to score goals, somethingthey did better than any otherteam in the school's history. Theyfinished with 67 goals in their 14games for an average of 4.8 percontest, almost two more goalsper game than last year's record.The most important additionsto the soccer program this yearwere freshmen called Firminoand Zenone Naitza 1 . The twinsfrom Italy, by way of the Bronx,N.Y., combined for 30 goals thisfall, or 45 percent of the team'stotal and were both named to theconference all-star squad.Zenone set school records formost goals (16), assists (17) andpoints (33) while Firmino; the topscorer in conference play, endedwith 14 goals and 5 assists for 19points.Senior Al Robinson closed out afine career with 4 goals and threeassists for 7 points from the leftwing. Other linemen who comprisedthe powerful offensive unitwere sophomore John Metzger(0-4-4), freshman SteveAugustine (2-1-3) and sophs GinoDiMartino (2-0-2) and HermanRodriguez.Midfielders junior JohnMcGraw (10-7-17), senior TimTrotta (4-5-9) and sophomoreDan Wakely (6-3-9) all madeoutstanding contributions thisseason but a lack of depth in themidfield proved costly againstthe stronger teams. "We neededa little more depth, as onlyMcGraw and Trotta (all-CACCmidfielder) were experiencedthere." Gaining experience tohelp meet that requirement nextseason were freshmen RussBeckley (1-04), Steve Obyrneand Matt Torrey. Roger Courtoisalso "played "weir'bur^wiu" toegraduating in the spring.If there was any surprise, ithad to be in the defensive unit,which although inexperienced,played strong for most of theseason and permitted an averageof 1.6 goals per game, includingfour shutouts. "We got away withsome very inexperienced peopleon defense," said Goldman. "Buttoward the end of the seasonsome of them got hurt and othersdidn't play as well."All the regulars in the backfieldwill be back. Jim Titone, a junior,was the only fullback with experience.Goldman was impressedwith the play of freshmenLucius Bonneson and ScottRoecklein. "Bonneson playedvery well and will be a goodplayer at Marist at eitherfullback or midfield," Goldmancommented. The final startingspot was split between freshmanCharlie Blum and junior JohnCovell. Junior Kevin McGheeshowed continued improvementand should be even stronger nextyear. Freshman Gustavo Beltraalso saw action in the backfield.For the third straight year, thegoaltending was handled byjuniors Biff Daino and JayMetzger. Metzger, an all-CACCselection, allowed an average of1.65 goals in eight and one-halfgames. Daino was a shade betterwith 1.64 in five and one-halfgames.Next year's prospects look verybright as only three seniors(Trotta, Robinson, and Courtois)will be lost to graduation andseveral good high school playershave shown interest in cominghere next fall.If the "Italian Connectiom"performs up to its potential andthe goaltending continues tosparkle, the Red Foxes shouldhave little trouble winning theirsecond CACC title and movingeven closer to an' undefeatedseason.

The Gaels made threedrives deep into Marist territoryin the half, but the Viking defenseforced turnovers; each time. Itwas still 7-0 when the MarlboroSchool band took oyer the field athalftime.Marist broke the game open inthe'third quarter, scoring twiceand rushing for 139 yards in theRUNNERS From 7year and we've improved a lotsince then. I guess the teamcertainly learned a lesson thehard way as to how to take care ofyourself during the championship,meets and not risk getting hurt.The'guys in the face gave us 100percent and all ran well.,consideringthe circumstances. Wehad our greatest season ever andonly ran bad performance-wisewhen we suffered some key injuriesin the first two meets andthe last one. We have a lot to lookforward to next year with thewhole-team back and a mess ofgood runners coming in. Nextyear the nationals are in'session."We had them well-scouted andknew they could pursue well,"said Levine. "In the second halfwe threw misdirection plays thathad two packs running one wayand Pilon going the other." -Pilon responded with gains of.29 and 16 yards late in the quarterbefore he plunged from the onefor the Vikings' third TD with 13seconds left in the period'Earlier, Marist drove 64 yardsin 13 plays covering over fiveminutes of the clock. The drivewas^ temporarily halted whenAltomare tore ligaments in hisankle as he carried down to thelona 3. He was forced to miss therem3ihder..pf rthe game and losthis chance at theiopo-yardmarkfor .the ; season and the nationalrushing crown. _Shortly after Altomare wasremoved from the field on astretcher, Colangelo hit VinI^eddy breaking to the middle tomake it 13-0. Trotta then made agood recovery of a poor snapfrom center and found VanVoorhis at the goal line for the- two-point conversion with 5:30 togo.in the quarter.Pagano's .final pickoff midwaythrough the final quarter set upthe final TD. With the aid of afacemasking penalty against theGaels, Colangelo guided theVikings 81 yards concluding thedrive with two straight passes toKevin Gallagher totaling 36yards. Trotta then booted his 14th"PAT in 16 tries this season.Although, the Vikings finishedfourth in the Met-8, Levine feelsthey came very close and has "noregrets.", especially since theteam was comprised of 16 freshmenand 14 sophohwes.Even then, Marist was in aposition to win each of the gamesitlost, with the possible exceptionof the Brooklyn game, in whichLevine •: described" them"physically collapsed from thefour-hour bus ride."asCleveland and we are anxiouslyawaiting our chance to show ourreal stuff there." \ :Marist's "B" team ran againstthe other team's varsity squads.in the,; IC4A College DivisionI Championships in Van CortlandtPark and was able to beat somevarsity teams in placing 26th of 39teams present.

(98 for 508) andquarterback Colangelo (36-80,517yards, 7 TD!s) showed goodimprovement and could be strongfor the next few seasons,for the next few seasons.Colangelo.'s favorite targets, VanVoorhis (<strong>20</strong> receptions for 277yds).and Ron Glacklin (8 for 133)both expected to : be runningpatterns for another season.Levine summed/up , his offensivephilosophy as "follows:"We have: a/very^ sophisticatedoffense'wliich'.assumes ; that "wecannot pound out.with pur biggeropponents. We must" utilize ourtalent very effectively to equalizethis.. When we did this, we weresuccessful, otherwise, we gotbeaten."The coach also praised thedefensive unit, which hedescribed as "well-disciplinedand in control of mostsituations." Most of the defensiveunit is also young and should beback next year. Senior BobCunningham will be missed buthis : linebacker partners RonClarke" (6 interceptions) and JimPiagano (4) as well as the entirefront four could return as thenucleus of a solid defense.With the experience gained bythe young players and a strongfinish to the,current season, theVikings should be contenders forthe Met-8 title for many seasons:to come..
