Bottle Bill Passed by House

Volume 75

Issue 22

April 19,1977

By Jon Zonderman

Representative Russel Post em-erged from the House chamber at6:15. Debate on his precious bottlebill had started almost three hoursbefore, and the vote, 77-65 in favor,wasjust 15 minutes old.

It had been a long debate,culminating a long fight, and hisface showed a mixture of joy andfatigue as he stepped forward toface reporters and declared, "Ithink this may just be the year thatConnecticut gets a bottle bill."

A few feet away stood HenryListon, the state director for theNew England Glass ProtectiveLeague, and he looked perplexed."Yes. it's disappointing, it's dis-appointing to think that there are336 people in the glass containerbusiness who will be unemployednext year."

A few minutes earlier, Listonhad sat up in the gallery of theHouse, listening to debate, alongwith about 30 of his supporters,who were wearing home-madelapel buttons depicting soft-drinkbottles, two standing upright and a

third lying on its side, with theword "jobs" written in it.

They had been seated just a fewfeet away from an approximatelyequal number of bottle-bill suppor-ters, most of whom sported variouspro-legislation buttons.

Outside the State House, anti-bottle bill forces marched, about 30strong, carrying home-made plac-ards. One read, "Impeach RussellPost."

This is the fourth year that, thebottle bill, which would ban flip-topcans, and put a' deposit on allbeverage containers in the state,has' been debated in the Connec-ticut General Assembly. As onelegislator said to his intern,"There's nothing new. I've heardall these arguments before."

Indeed, he must have. By thetime the vote was taken at 6:02(just in time to be seen live onchannel-3 news) everyone presentfelt that they had heard thearguments many times before.

Three times, the AssistantSpeaker of the House, Robert J.Vicino, had asked if the legislatorswere ready to vote. Three times the

McCarthy Chides'Politics as Usual'

by Alice O'Connor

^ ^ ^ night, April 1Lformer senator Eugene McCarthyaddressed a large audience in theWashington Room. The subject of .'his lecture, "Politics in America,"centered on the fact that, as he seesit, we have had "politics as usual"for the past 25 years.

McCarthy pointed out the prob-lem with four main illustrationsconcerning this country's political,situation. He went on to say thatthree political influences are large-ly responsible for our politicalmesses: those who run politicalparties, the press, and academia.None of the three have fulfilledtheir obligation to make theinformed, restrained judgmentsthat would end the political stale-mate.

According to McCarthy, a"world of relativity and statistics"has permeated our defense policiessince 1952. As a result, thePentagon has become separatedfrom the executive branch of thegovernment, with its own bureau-cracy and principles which mostlycenter around the build-up of thesame military questions—main-taining the "missile gap" anddrawing the line for nuclear weap-ons.

McCarthy cited de Tocqueville,who, as far back as 1831, realized

the potential for the military tofopni-a "nation within a nation."-He feels that the situation has gonemuch farther than de Tocquevillewould have thought possible—largely as a result of the lack ofserious academic review.

In addition, the press has beensupportive of many military actions(the cold war and the beginning ofthe Vietnam war) when it shouldhave been more aware of thepotential dangers. To a largeextent, politicians make decisions-based on the opinions of the pressand the academia. In a case such asthe military, where intellectualconsideration is lacking, the inevi-table consequence is its furtherseparation from the government.

Economically, the solutionwhich has been generally acceptedfor' the past 25 years is that ofincreased capital investment. Thesteps now being taken are similarto many New Deal measures.

For unemployment, the idea ofa new full. employment act indi-cates that the approach to thetheoretical solution and its appli-cation has not changed withchanging socio-economic factors /

In this case, McCarthy againblamed the academia for its "badideas." He said that the increasedinvestment theories peemed towork in the 50's and 60's, but they

majority had answered yes. Buttwo times, just as the speaker wasabout to ask the clerk to open theelectronic voting machine, a legis-lator had risen and asked to berecognized.

Connecticut has a tradition offree and open debate on the floor ofthe House,; so the Speaker could donothing but let the person speak.On the third request for a vote, theSpeaker and the clerk beat anylegislator to the draw, opening tha

machine.When the vote was.tabulated on

the electronic board, three times tomake it official, a roar went up fromthe pro-bottle billers in the galleryand from the Post aides seated inthe well of the House gallery.Assistant Speaker Vicino gavelledthe proceedings back to order, as•he had done on two other occasionsthat afternoon, reminding theaudience that they were in alegislative session and shouldconduct themselves in such amanner.

The tension which had beenbuilding all afternoon had suddenlyexploded, and before the Speakerhad finished gavelling the proceed-ings to a close, a group of reportershad stormed Rep. Post.

Yes, he was surprised that theyhad won by such a large margin,but he had thought that they wouldwin. Indeed, most of the StateHouse- thought that the bill wouldpass. . . . -

' However, although most every-one thought that the bill wouldpass, the debate had still beenlively and at some times sharp.

When the bill made its appear-ance on the day's calendar, theMajority leader, William O'Neill,moved that it be temporarilypassed, so that the House could getthrough a couple of other importantissues before it engaged in whateveryone knew would be a long,grueling debate.

The other issues were acted on,the mundane, things on the calen-dar were passed and retained theiroriginal place in the calendar afterthe bottle bill.

Then at 3:40 it started. At theoutset, Rep. John Anderson (106),the chairman of the Environment

Women 9s History Discussedby Magda Lichota

On Monday, April 11, threestudents, Susan Penn, RobynWeinstein and Claudia Zanger,presented "Topics in Women'sHistory" at the History Depart-ment Colloquium in Wean Lounge.

The panel discussed the femalehistorical experience and howwomen have been treated byhistorians in the past. The purposeof the colloquium was to raise theconsciousness of the History Dep-artment and Trinity students reg-arding women as a force in history.

Susan Penn stated that women,according to historians, have onlyplayed a marginal role in historicalevents. Females have been depic-ted as the "chattel" of theirhusbands and fathers. Penn re-marked that single"1 wofrien" werelooked down upon throughouthistory because they did not fulfilltheir societal function as wives andmothers.

Although women played anactive role in the American Revol-ution, human equality at this timein history did not include their ownsex. Females were not takenseriously by their male contempor-aries.

Robyn Weinstein commentedon the effect of the IndustrialRevolution on females. She claimedthat men and women have dramat-ically different views of thisrevolution. Although the IndustrialRevolution expanded the choice ofoccupations for men, it did notsucceed in extricating women fromtheir domestic duties. The home

was a man's refuge from theunstable public world. The full-time mother and wife maintainedthis domestic refuge in addition tosometimes working in the factories.It was socially acceptable, for anunmarried woman to work as a stepbefore marriage. In fact, manywomen went to work in factories inorder to find a husband.

Weinstein stated that it wasimperative in the 19th century thatthe woman play the central domes-tic role in the family so that theexisting order of Capitalism couldbe preserved. The concept of thenuclear family supports a Capital-istic society. Weinstein amusedher audience (especially the fe-males) by commenting that awoman's every action was directedtoward serving fier husband andchildren and that most females onlyderived fulfillment from helpingtheir husbands fulfill themselves.

Claudia Zanger discussed thehistorical roles of two women,Lillian Hellman and . Di.ana Trill-ing, who were blacklisted duringthe McCarthy era. Zanger stressedthe fact that American society inthe early 1950's was geared towardhard work and economic successand loathed intellectuals becausethey criticized all aspects of Amer-ican society and desired socialreform.

Penn, Weinstein and Zangerfeel that it is important not todisregard the feminine perspec-tive of the past and to realize thelack of equality regarding womenin historical texts.

Housing Selection Beginsby Steve Titus and Diane Molleson

Next Wednesday and Thurs-day, April 27 and 28, students whoplan to return in the fall will selecta room for next year. For most, theprocess of choosing a place to livebegins tomorrow (April 20), whenpriority numbers and the list ofavailable rooms (accompanied bythe priority number with whicheach room was chosen last year)will be posted in Mather Hall.

The Housing office has provi-ded each student with enoughinformation to at least understandthe complicated procedures in-volved in the Housing selectionprocess. This article will provideadditional information which mightbe useful to students in their questfor a decent room.

Group A: Most Desirable DormsUsing "data obtained from the

previous year's selection process,"the housing office has rated alldorms, placing each in one of fourgroups. According to these ratings,

Group A ("Most desirable") in-cludes Northam, Seabury, Good-win, Woodward and South Campus(Wheaton, Jackson and Smith).

Northam, Seabury, Goodwinand Woodward are highly valuedfor their central location and fortheir relatively large rooms. How-ever, the noisiness (especially inthe spring) and in some cases,deplorable conditions (for examplethe bathrooms in Seabury) aredisadvantages.

In the past, Goodwin andWoodward have housed a highpercentage of transfer and ex-change students. However, be-cause of many complaints thatresiding in Goodwin or Woodwardis unconducive to meeting people,alt the rooms in these dorms will bemade available to present Trinitystudents.

The South Campus dorms arealso desirable because of theirlocation. Another advantage istheir cleanliness. According to a

Jac'cson resident, "There is nosmell here, as opposed to Elton andJones, which reek."

Smith consists of quads andtriples only; the majority of therooms in Jackson and Wheaton aresizable singles available to upper-classmen.

A few complaints were voicedby residents, including the lack of"hall life" and the fact that there isonly one vacuum cleaner for theentire South Campus complex.

Group B: Second Most DesirableDorms

Group B ("Second Most Desir-able") consists of Cook, 111Crescent and High Rise.

Cook is also centrally locatedand is made up of triples, quadsand doubles. Residents praised thelocation but complained of thenoise and poor closet space.

The 111 Crescent St. apart-ments house either two or threepeople and are equipped withkitchens, bathrooms, wall-to-wall

Jon ZondertnanIn order to understand Richard

Nixon fully, one must understandthe American dream and the mythof the self-made man. This is themessage Dr. David Marcel, Direc-tor of American Studies at Skid-more College and a scholar inAmerican Philosophy, imparted inhis talk last Friday on "Nixon andthe Problem of Innocence.''

A Mouse Visits SAGAby Cart Roberts

With the exceptions of a visit bya friendly mouse, and the appear-ance of a piece of glass, things havebeen going quite well at the Mather;Hal!" dining-;rbom~ this semester.SAGA Food Service reports thatovercrowded conditions and com-plaints about the food have bothdiminished greatly in recentmonths.

The mouse made Ms appear-anpe at dinner last week. After hewas spotted next to the ice creamfreezer, he scurried around theserving area until he was appre-hended and removed from thebuilding.

Jn a Tripod interview, JeffWilson, food service director,remarked that SAGA was "just asupset about finding a mouse outthere as you would be about findinga mouse in your room." He saidthat this was quite an unusualoccurrence, and that he did not.think it would happen again.

The only other recent incidentat SAGA in which an unhealthysituation existed involved a piece ofglass which was discovered in thepotato chips. Wilson suspected thatthe glass sliver had chipped off of adrinking glass while it was beingwashed. He subsequently askedmembers of the dish crew to bemore careful when handling glassobjects.

One of the complaints studentshave had about their food in thepast has been that of finding hairsin it. Wilson was pleased to reportthat there have been no such

complaints this semester. Heattributes that to the fact that eachline server and cook , is nowrequired to wear a hat while

which Wilson has received thissemester has been positive. Thenotes to "Dear Mr, SAGA" whichstudents have posted on thebulletin board opposite the icecream freezer have provided sev-eral worthwhile suggestions. Wil-son said that they "try to complywith as many as we can."

The most encouraging news ofthe semester, according to Wilson,concerns the shorter food lines. Hereported that 176 less people are onthe meal pla.; this semester thanwere during the fall. While thereare only around 920 eaters now,there were approximately 1090 lastsemester. This has resulted in thereduction of the waiting time atsome meals to one quarter of whatit had been. •. . •

Things will get worse next fall,though. Wilson said that there arealways many more people on themeal plan during the first semes-ter. Next year's freshman classshould be smaller than this year'swas, which will help somewhat,but Wilson is still concerned thatlong lines will become a problem •again. . .

SAGA is considering twochanges for next year which, if theyare adopted, will expedite the foodgathering process. The first is theaddition of a fourth hot food line tobe used only for obtaining second

helpings. The other change will bethe placing of a salad bar in eachdining room, thus providing morespace in the serving area. .

Different types of meal plansfor Trinity students will be underconsideration in the future. If anynew options are approved, though,they will not be available until theyear after next, for such changeswould require considerable plan-ning.

The primary reason why thepresent meal plans have not beensupplemented by other alterna-'tives, according to Wilson, is that"there doesn't seem to be much ofa demand to change." He said thatin those cases where the present15-meal arid 19-meal options havepresented problems, somethinghas been worked out.

When asked for an example of aplan which might be added atTrinity, Wilson responded thatthey will be considering theinstitution of a system in whicheach person electing the optionwould be allowed to choose whichmeals to attend each week up to thenumber specified an his or hermeal ticket.

Several colleges have addedsupplementary meal plans in thelast few years. Among them,Wesleyan'• University' ;and' Dart-mouth College now offer optionsunder which students may choosewhich meals to attend up to acertain number. The university ofVermont has instituted a couponsystem. Students purchase cou-pons and turn one in each time theyeat.

On Thursday, April 14th, theGeorge M. Ferris Lecture onCorporation Finance was deliveredby Professor Burton G. Malkiel inthe Goodwin Theatre. ProfessorMalkiel, presently a member of theEconomics Department at Prince-ton University, has done extensivework in government and business.He was a key member of PresidentFord's Council of Economic Ad-visers and has had several of hisworks published, including A Ran-dom .Walk Down, Wall Street. , . , _ :

The topic of Professor Malkiel'slecture was "Capital Formation inthe United States." Despite therecent resurgence in the economy,Professor Malkiel projects weakinvestment as a serious long-runproblem. Business fixed invest-ment is only 9% of the GNP, a verylow ratio, and even the mostoptimistic estimates predict busi-ness fixed investment at less than10% of the GNP for 1977. Malkielfeels this ratio is too low to achievefull employment by 1980. Onestudy predicts that for the remain-der of the decade, 12% of the GNPmust be business fixed investmentin order to reach government goals.

Professor Malkiel pointed to thefact that the productivity growth oflabor has ' declined from a 1948-1964 average of 3.1% to a1973-1977 average of a mere 1,7%.Many experts feel much of thisdecrease in productivity growth isdue to a decrease in capital growth.For increased growth and produc-tivity, for increased real wage andfull employment, the economy

sored by the Philosophy Depart-ment and the American StudiesProgram.

Dr. Marcel's main thesis is thatNixon is a significant figure inAmerican history, in that he wasable to use the American dreamand myth, and express that myththrough the media, in order tobecome president.

According to Marcel, there arethree archetypal American inno-cents. There is old Ben Franklin,and his autobiography; HenryThoreau, the author and liver ofWalden; and Jimmy Gatz, or F.Scott Fitzgerald, and the characterof the Great Gatsby.

Marcel parallels Nixon mostclosely with Gatz, in that he had asense of self, and a sense of hisown destiny, which led him to seehis life, and in some cases tocontrive his past, in the romanticJerms of the archetypal Americaninnocent.

Nixon's presidency became an"image of narcissistic love . "Nixon's distorted self-images ledto a distorted view of the reality ofthe political atmosphere. The wayin which Nixon patterned his life,one of Six Crises, is very revealing.The 1952 Checkers speech, inwhich Nixon told his life story forthe first time, made him the firstperson in American history toconvey his own personal version ofthe American dream directly to thepeople. •

Many had been made a part ofthe American dream through acombination of fact and myth. Butthey had not created that myththemselves. Nixon was the first toactively help in the creation of hisown myth.

His story was the typicalHoratio Alger story. And he playedit to the very hilt. But, unlikeJimmy Gatz, who deluded onlyhimself into thinking that he wasJay Gatsby, Nixon deluded theAmerican people into believingthat he was what he thought hewas.

Dr. Marcel, arguing from muchthe same perspective as GaroyWills in Nixon Agonistes, says thatthe thing that made Nixon such anattractive candidate was that hewas able to be seen as theembodiment of the American"bourgeois dream of ari-stocracy." That* argues Dr. Mar-cel, is why he was so caught upin the regal trappings of the White'House.

Dr. Marcel hopes that theserious study of Nixon as a tragicfigure, and as an archetypalAmerican innocent can be used to"help distinguish the mundanefrom the heroic, the heroic from thegrotesque," in the future. He feelsthat the myth of Gatsby, indeed themyth of Nixon, shows the limits ofhuman possibility, and that theelectorate is in real peril when they.decide to elect Gatsby president.

Health Awareness DayDelta Sigma Theta Sorority is

sponsoring a health forum entitled"Health Awareness Day," Satur-day, April 30, from 10 a.m. until 1P.M. at Horace Bushnell Congre-gational Church, 23 Vine Street,Hartford, Conn.

This forum is free, and thepublic and students residing in thearea are urged to attend'.

The health forum is designed topromote awareness of our healthneeds and the services available inthe Hartford area. It will alsoen able people to plan and developbetcer health habits. The essence ofthe program will range frompre-natal and post-natal prcven-

tative measures to old age.Authoritative speakers from theHealth field will be discussingfamily planning, drug abuse, re-cognition and prevention of illness,the importance of early inoculation,specific diseases like diabetes,glaucoma, paralysis, and nutrition.

There will be free food samp-ling, free literature, and a coffeehour from 10:00 to 10:30. " ;

Coordinators of the program areDelta Sigma Theta, Epsilon Upsi-lon Chapter, the Pyramids for1977, and the Hartford Alumnae .graduate chapter.

For further information, contactKarren Harris or Penny Sanchez.

Professor Malkiel gave threemain reasons why business fixedinvestment has decreased. First,the economy if far less stable thanit has been since World War II.High rates of inflation make itdifficult to estimate the presentvalue of an investment. Looming inthe background for businesses isthe constant fear of price controls.Further, the- environmental con-straint on capital goods makescapital more expensive, as does the .constant fear of increased and more

, austere.e,nvironmental,regulation. , ,Second, despite the recent

thirty percent increase in corporateprofits, profits are still well belowthe mid-1960's level. Without thenecessary profits, it is difficult tofund new investment. Third, theprice of capital has increasedrapidly. The price index for invest-ment goods has increased 43%since 1972, while the consumerprice index has risen "only" 33%.

To increase business fixedinvestment, macroeconomic policyshould have long-run goals. Forinvestment purposes, such policyshould stimulate steady and sus-tainable expansion, Businessesworry about boom-bust cycles andthe risks that accompany patch-work stop-and-go policy.

Furthermore, environmentalstandards should be stabilized toeliminate the uncertainty and risk.There should be an investment taxcredit and more savings.

Professor Malkiel was not lob-bying for big business, but simplysounding a warning bell that fullemployment and an increasedstandard of living cannot' beattained without increased invest-

.caused a demand for "unlimitedexpansion" which has createdlarge problems today.

According to McCarthy, insteadof concentrating on expansion,academia should have pointed outfactors of limited resources andgrowing unemployment. Becausethey did not, the early 70's saw asudden realization that there were,limits to. growth, and that the'economy could not withstand thewaste created by expansion. .

McCarthy sees another growingtrend in the approach of the exec-utive to the presidency. This"personalization of the presiden-cy" has "been seen in all, thepresidents since Eisenhower, and

is expressed today by Carter'sself-image as the "people's presi-dent."

According to McCarthy, intreatises on the power of thepresidency, the academia hasgenerally approved of the accum-ulation of power. Instead, the trendshould have been questioned interms of the democratic principlesexpressed in the constitution.

He feels that we have failed tokeep in-mind that the presidency isa constitutional office,! throughwhich the executive s'erves thepeople, This idea of having powerdirectly from the people has causedthe emphasis on an executivesynonymous with his officey and

After Winer arrived, a security

Bottle Bill Debatedcont. from p. 1

Committee, which had reported thebill favorably to the floor, proposedan amendment to provide that nopenalties would be forthcoming onthose who violated the law.

The amendment was passed ona voice vote. Although many feltthat this amendment would weakenthe bill terribly,,i it was generally-acknowledged that the amendmentcould gain votes for the pro-bottlebillers. Some supporters in thegallery, however, felt that they hadbeen sold out.

It was later explained by an aidethat the amendment had beendrawn with Post's knowledge, andthat the reasoning for it was thatif it ever went to the JudiciaryCommittee on this late date, withcommittee work coming to an endand the usual end-of-the-sessionrush to take up as many bills aspossible on the floor, the measureprobably would have died incommittee.

In all, 26 legislators took part inthe debate. Those who made theirremarks were equally divided as topro and anti-bottle billers.

Rep. Andrew Grande (79) ledthe opposition forces. He is thesponsor of the anti-litter bill, whid)he and other anti-bottle billersbushed as a measure that wAulddeal with the main thrust of thebottle bill, roadside litter.

Those pushing the anti-litterbill are basing their assumption ofthe aims of the bottle on a narrowinterpretation of Rep. Post's re-frain that "the central issue iswaste." Proponents of the bottlebill are not only talking about thewaste of the glass itself, but of theenergy that is used in the glass-making process.

Other arguments against thebottle bill were forthcoming fromRep. Vincent Villiano, (96) whoargued that, even if the issue weremerely litter, he doesn't think that'he problem is as bad as somewould like to think. Reps. EugeneMigliaro (80) and Vito Mazza (115)j""gued that allowing returnablebottles would create a verminProblem, a health hazard to thosePlaces that collected bottles forreturn. "That's why non-return-ables were introduced," claimedMigliaro.

Rep. Grande also producedJctter.s from breweries saying that'f a bottle bill were passed inConnecticut, they would not eventh)nk about relocating here. Hear8ucd that not only would jobs be

lost immediately, but that potentialjobs would be lost.

The main arguments put for-ward by the proponents of thelegislation were by Rep. WilliamLawless (13) who accused the bottleindustry of "deception, deceit, andfalsehood," in their portrayal of thejob tosses that would occur with theadvent of the legislation; as well asReps John Demerril (35) JohnAnderson (106) and Russell Post(63), the sponsor of the bill.

The bill has now passed the firstbig hurdle. The next will be gettingit out of the Senate EnvironmentalCommittee and on to the floor ofthe Senate..

The Boston Globe reported lastSaturday that proponents of thepetition had their 19 signatures,and that the bill would be debatedwithin three weeks.

Most insiders believe that, onceit reaches the floor of the Senate, itwill be passed. As one Senatorsaid, "This isn't the kind of•petition Senators will sign out of asense of fair play and public good.If they're going to sign it, they'regoing to vote for i t / '

So, as of right now, it looks asthough the chances are very goodthat Connecticut will enact a bottlebill this year. If so, it will becomelaw in 1978.

might have rekindled itself. Sincetempers were starting to get hot,he decided that it would be best tolet the remainder of the fire burnout by itself. Finally a studentextinguished it with water.

One of the people presentexplained that the fife had been setby students in order to keep warm.They had been standing on thequad drinking beer provided by theresidents of Cook, and had begunto get cold. The person said thatthey had chosen a spot of dirt onthe quad where no grass had beengrowing to build the fire.

"It was just a peaceful gather-ing of people trying to have a goodtime," a student commented. Hewent on to say that "we wouldn'thave gotten upset if Winer hadgiven some legitimate reasons" forextinguishing the fire.

The primary motivation forputting out the fire, according toWiner, .was' that someone couldhave gotten injured. He said thatmany of the students had beendrinking and could have easilybeen burned. Another reason wasthat he was afraid the fire, whichhad been built near one of the elmtrees, might have caused damageto the tree.

Winer said that he consideredthis to ha"e been one of severalrecent incidents of vandalism oncamous. Within the past weekalone four fire extinguishers frombuildings were emptied and glasswas broken on four floors of HighRise.

"Most of the people at the firewere great," Winer commented.He believes that vandalism oncampus, is caused by a smallminority of students. While he hasno definite plan of action, he saidthat he will do what he has to inorder to protect the property ofstudents and of.the college fromvandalism.

has allowed past presidents to useoffices for functions outside of theirjurisdiction.

McCarthy pointed out that, inthe aftermath of Watergate, thepress and intellectuals began totake notice, but now, with a newpresident, they are drifting awayfrom the problem.

McCarthy feels that the two-party system has been a largefactor in creating the present poli-tical situation. The system hasdeveloped into one in which the twoparties have become "mutualprotection agencies," presentingno real challenge to inadequatepolicies and programs. '

The two-party system, seen as apostulate for democratic govern-

,'merit, is a false idea which was ."developed by the academia, ac-cepted by the press, and adhered toby politicians/' He sees the wholeprocess as a "repudiation of thejustification of. the Revolution"—which, sought to further the princi-ple of public participation ingovernment. •

Now, the Democratic and Rep-ublican parties are the only realtool through which political actioncan be taken. Their rules are set,their actions predictable, and cit-izen participation in government islimited.

Towards the end of this lecture.Senator McCarthy- stressed theimportance of a more active criticalrole of the academia in politics. Ashe put it, "I have no confidence inpoliticians, little in the press-, andso I call upon the academiccommunity to save the republic."

Later in a WRTC interview,McCarthy spoke more about hisown role as the third party in the1976 elections.

As he sees it, one of the biggestproblems in a two-party election isthat it is a matter of "winner takeall," so that problems not includedin the party's platform are often notconsidered. Even if a third partyfelt that it would not win, it mightraise controversial issues.

However, in the '76 elections,McCarthy came up against muchopposition to his candidacy on thethird party ticket. He saw threebasic problems for the party in theelection.

First, because of strong opposi-tion within the Democratic party hehad trouble getting on the ballot.

Second, the Independents hadtrouble raising money. McCarthyattributed this tp the Federa'Election laws, as well as what hesaw as a fear on the part of manypeople to be on record as havingcontributed to the Independentparty.

Third, McCarthy felt that thepress virtually ignored his cam-paign. As he sees it, this wasbecause of a combination of fearand greed;- the press is largely

dependent upon the support of thetwo main parties to keep theirlicenses and maintain their mar-kets. ,

When asked about variousaspects of President Carter's per-formance, McCarthy expresseddisapproval. He sees the problemin Carter's personalization of theoffice. He feels that the president'sapproach to foreign policy indicatesa "lack of sensibility as to how youact as president and how you act asJimmy Carter."

He also feels that the proposedvoter reforms have no real merit interms of solving the electoralproblems. -Basically,- they wouldmaintain the two-party system,instead of opening up the processto allow a strong- .third party.Otherwise, voter reforms wilt onlyallow: more people to vote lot less;;and less.

McCarthy then talked about hisproposals to solve economic prob-lems. He sees a "redistribution oflabor" as the best solution to createa "continuing kind of economicparticipation" for as many as-possible. His plan includes a short-ening of the work year (from 50 to48 weeks) and an elimination ofovertime. •

With the creation of extra workhours, employers can put many ofthe presently unemployed to work.McCarthy feels that this kind ofaction is "the only way" to preventthe economic isolation of a largeportion of the population, particu-larly the young and minorities inurban areas.

Senator McCarthy also statedthat he is for the federal decrirn-inalization of marijuana, and hasbeen since 1968 when "I recom-mended that they put a warning onthe package." He feels that wehave proceeded irrationally in ourapproach to drugs, saying that"ourpolieynas defcirBarbaffc;**- •

McCarthy has recently "justabout finished" a book entitledAmerica Revisited. In it, he makesa comparison of ideas and institu-tions of present day society withthe observations of Alexis deTocqueville in 1831.

As for the future, McCarthy willcontinue working with the Inde-pendent party, which, in conjunc-tion with the New York CivilLiberties Union, is trying to "openUp the political process" byworking to change the electoralcollege and certain state andfederal election laws which theydeem to be unconstitutional.

Will he run in 1980? McCarthyhas not eliminated the prospect,but he hopes to get "someone elsewho's less scarred up than I am " torun on the third party ticket.Furthermore, the necessity for anIndependent candidate in 1980."depends upon how badly Carterdoes...I think' he'll•• do badly •enough."

In the past year, as an activemember and officer, I have come tofully realize the importance of theS.G.A. The S.G.A.'s contributionto student life at Trinity is greatlyunderrated., Since most studentsforget that the S.G.A. is respon-sible for such highly visible things'as course evaluations and the Pub,it is not surprising that they areunaware of the role of the S.G.A. innegotiating with the administrationand enabling student activities torun smoothly. I feel that I havecontributed to this process respon-sibly and would like to continue todo so.

I wish to serve on the Curricu-lum Committee to support aninnovative, flexible and broadliberal arts curriculum, one whichencourages responsible controlover our education. While thisweek 41 students will be elected toserve on committees that controlour organized social life, only threestudents are given positions thatcan be used to influence our formaleducation. I therefore hope to beable to keep the student body moreaware and responsible for what can

Scott LessneBudget Committee

Last week, the Budget Statisticswere published on the front page ofthe Tripod. The figures showed thecommittee allocating over $100,000in funds to the various campusorganizations. Giving the studentsthe opportunity to allocate thislarge sum of money is a credit tothe student body. In effect, theadministration believes the stu-dents to be mature and intelligentadults, capable of handling thisresponsibility. If elected to theBudget Committee, my purposewill be to uphold the high stand-ards of the committee and serve thestudents of TrinityCollege, to thebest of my ability.

My interest in ConnPIRG rec-ently arose as a result of an article Iwrote for the Tripod. I discovered avery positive organ for socialchange whose significance forTrinity has been heavily ignored.While ConnPIRG has been makingimportant contributions to theHartford community, I would liketo see greater involvement on thiscampus.

ConnPIRG is an opportunity forvaluable experiences by pursuing -independent projects which servethe public interest. This uniqueorganization can and should serveas a vital link to our surroundings. 1would appreciate the chance towork towards these ends.

Gray MarkoffAdmissions and Financial AidAs a rising Senior, I would like

to complete my college career by"'participating as a student memberon a functioning branch of thecollege Financial structure. Afterreceiving Financial Aid for the pastthree years, it would be my desireand honor to serve two terms on thecollege Admissions and FinancialAid Committee. While remaininginactive from internal affairs of thecollege previously, I now feel that itis time that I apply my thoughtsand efforts into an area that wouldbe rewarding to the college andcampus as well as to me. Yourvotes will be very much appreci-ated.

High Rise's 32 four-personsuites house 128 students, mostlymale. The suites are spacious; eachincludes four large single rooms, aliving room and a bathroom.

According to Elinor Tilles,director of College Residences,there are two reasons why HighRise is predominantly male: 1)complaints from women and par-ents of women that the location isunsafe, and 2) requests fromfraternities that High Rise bedesignated primarily for males sothat members may dwell in closeproximity to their brothers.

Tilles maintained she has re-ceived no such requests fromwomen to reside near the frats. Shealso said the lopsided High Risemale-female ration was counter-balanced by Smith, which is

to have improved over the last fewyears: the washers and dryers (sixof each) have run smoothly all yearand the ping-pong tables in thelounge have been a welcomeaddition.

Group C: Third Most DesirableDorms

Group C ("Third most desir-able") includes Jarvis, Elton, 90-92Vernon St., and Allen East andAllen West.

Jarvis' singles are the tiniest oncampus, except for those in thetower which are the largest. Thefacilities were judged adequate;the salient factor about living inJarvis, the close quarters, wasfound to be conducive either to agreat amount of noise or to anactive social life.

Elton received many derogatorycomments: the dorm was deemedugly, sloppy, overcrowded, noisyand possessed of outdated plumb-

ing. On the positive side, Elton iscentrally located and the roof isuseful as an observatory or forsunbathing.

90-92 Vernon St., which housesgroups of three or four people, isundesirable mainly because of itsisolated location. Although therooms are adequate in terms ofsize, the plumbing and.heating areoften faulty.

Allen East and West arenotorious for their poor condition.Dean Tilles admitted the dorms are"unattractive" although they meetthe standard city code. Occupied bygroups of four or five people, thesedorms have been designated ashaving top priority if the admini-stration were to decide to allocatefunds for repairs.

Warrens Explore Supernaturalby Bob Shor

"They came as skeptics and leftmesmerized with amazement."

Do you believe in the super-natural? The Warrens, who haveappeared on numerous radio andtelevision broadcasts, have beenreferred to as America's top ghosthunters. They will be lecturing inthe Washington Room right afterHorizons on Tuesday, April 19.Their integraged lecture on haunt-ed houses, ghosts and demonologyconsists of a combination of vividslides of actual cases and questionand answer periods.

The Warrens are supers of thesupernatural. They have been incontact with spirits virtually alltheir lives. As a child, Ed Warrenlived in a house which was haunted

HolocaustRe-examined

by Nina ChiaraDorothy Soelle and Eric Gold-

ha^en, members of the AmericanAcademy of Religion, addressed anaudience at Trinity last Mondaynight, April 11, in Goodwin The-atre, The topic of the lecture was"The Implications of The Holo-caust for the teaching of Religion"which examined the consequencesof the war in terms of religion.

Dorothy Soelle, a German The-ologian, was 15 years old when thewar ended and therefore wassubjected to the ruin and disastercaused by the war. Her religiousreflections centered around the warand the destruction it created."How could the war happen in themidst of the church?" "How canone identify with God if one doesn'tunderstand what he has done?"She described her reflections interms of a Sadistic Theology inwhich she regards her sadisticbehavior as normal. If no one is togain anything from such a God andtherefore if no supernatural beingis responsible for such a history,people are responsible.

Eric Goldhagen offerred a dif-ferent interpretation. Mr. Gold-hagen who presently teaches acourse in the Holocaust at Harvard,described the implications of theHolocaust in terms of a "moral andmental mutation." He describedthe vulnerability of a person'ssocial and psychic states. HeExplained how easy it is for anindividual to be transformed intosomething lower than humanity. Intf)e war, this inherent evil nature°f man altered the very funda-

• mental outlook of society. This'"tellectural providence of theHolocaust, that is, the doubts ofcommon sense clashing with war-t!"ie rhetoric, exemplified thespeed with which a person turned'"to a different person as a result ofsociety. He described this as amaJor implication of the Holocaust.

by a former tenant. Lorraine isclairvoyant. Her talents have beenwidely acclaimed.

The cases that will be describedinclude the story of a Manhattanclothier, his modelling wife andfive daughters, and their exper-iences with the supernatural in anold farmhouse in Rhode Island.Among the numerour strange andunexplained happenings are thefollowing: 1) doors bolted, railed,boarded, tied and locked shutthrusting themselves open; 2)cuttinginto a Sunkist orange bythe fireplace and being shocked tosee blood ooze out; 3) observing thefrightening apparition of an oldwoman who had hung herself in thebarn years before; 4) claw marksappearing on Mrs. Parron's arm.

In addition the New York Timesran a series of articles on theGhostly Cavalryman which hauntsWest Point. Naturally, the Warrenswere called to investigate. A figureof a U.S. cavalry soldier of theeighteen-thirties—with full uni-form, boots, and handlebar must-ache and a musket in his ecto-plasmic hand has been seen by ahalf dozen cadets, always in thedead of night, drifting in and out ofstone masonry walls and metallockers in the ground floor of adormitory. Those rooms have beensealed.

To add to their credentials, EdWarren is one of the few peopleauthorized to see the church filesof the case that led to the book andthe film, The Exorcist.

Jones and North Campus housefreshmen primarily, but have sev-eral singles. Each dorm is quitenoisy and unattractive; the Jonessingles are much larger than thosein North Campus.

The other four dorms areformer apartment buildings nowowned, by the college. All aredesignated for occupancy bygroups of three or four. Thewalls in the New Britain apart-ments are paper thin. ("You canhear someone breathe next door,''claimed one occupant), and thethree-person apartments in thosetwo dorms are overcrowded. Theback door of 216 New Britain is saidto be quite difficult to open.

All four dorms are isolated fromthe campus. A resident of 78-80Crescent St. said that although therooms were recently renovated andthus quite attractive, the dormshould be recommended to intro-verts and anti-socials, because of itsisolation and non-dorm atmos-phere.

Another resident of 78-80Crescent St. complained that in thewinter the ice freezes on the steps.This winter conditions were sopoor that Riel Crandall, the directorof Buildings and Grounds, wasthreatened by 78-80 residents witha law suit if the dangerousconditions Were to result in injury."He then immediately came andput rock salt on the steps himself,"the resident claimed.

Additional ConsiderationsDean Tilles mentioned the

addition of 94-100 Crescent St. tothe list of available dormitories.Forty-eight students, four in eachof the twelve apartments, will beaccomodated in the building.

Tilles claimed the new dormwill be similar to the 82-84 and78-80 apartments, but will be"nicer." Renovation of the interiorof the building will be done thissummer. Each apartment will have

a living room with a built-in bench(students must supply pillows toconvert it into a couch) andbookcases, two bedrooms and abathroom.

It is hoped that the new additionwill take care of the excess of risingsophomores (present freshmen).The balance of available rooms forrising sophomores will be desig-nated for occupancy by groups offour. Tilles said she couldnot over-emphasize the factthat "rising sophomores shouldthink in terms of four."

It should be noted that studentsare severely perturbed at the jobBuildings and Grounds has donewith regard to upkeep of studenthousing. Specific complaints aretoo numerous to mention; residentsof Seabury, Elton, 90-92 VernonStreet, Allen East and West, and78-80 voiced particular dismay.

The general disapproval is bestsummarized by a 90-92 Vernon St.resident who said B and G "is apain "

Summer HousingDean Tilles cited the. following

information on summer housing.Ill Crescent St., 194 and 216 NewBritain will be-open for summeruse. The apartments are air-condi-tioned and for ?., 3 or 4 persons.The rent is $22.00 per week perstudent. Occupancy dates are June1-August 24.

Those eligible for summerhousing are Trinity undergraduatestaking summer courses and/orworking on campus, financial aidstudents with off campus jobs(proof of a job must be pre-sented). Trinity graduatestaking summer courses, studentsparticipating in special summerprograms, and faculty who will beteaching summer courses.

Editorial

Vote in Favor of ConnPIRGDuring the upcoming pre-registration, a referendum will be held to decide the

future of ConnPIRG as a student-funded organization. It Is essential that studentsvote In favor of ConnPIRG.

ConnPIRG, in its four year history, has performed many valuable functions forTrinity students. Its activities have included free legal aid, various consumerpamphlets, and comparative price surveys. In addition, ConnPIRG maintained aconsumer complaint center on campus until the office space was converted into anexpansion of the sign shop.

ConnPIRG's greatest value, however, lies in offering students a chance toInteract with the community through various studies made in such areas as nursinghomes, small claims courts, and sex discrimination In elementary school texts.These studies, performed through internships or independent studies, areImportant hi affording students an opportunity to counteract the isolating effects aTrinity education can have, and actively participate hi the problems of the outsideworld.

ConnPIRG has previously been hampered hi Its attempts to Involve students hiactive citizenship by a lack of funds. After a three year legislative struggle,ConnPIRG is now able to receive funding from state schools, and consequentlyt its

budget is doubled for next year. With the added monies, ConnPIRG will be able toincrease its professional staff and expand its operations. It would be a severe blowif Trinity's contribution were withdrawn at a time when ConnPIRG's future islooting so bright.

When compared with other budgetary allocations, the value of ConnPIRG iseven more apparent. The $6700 Trinity contributes to ConnPIRG pays almost all ofConnPIRG staffer's salary for the year [$7000]. At Trinity, this same amount mightcover a couple of concerts, a few dances, or two-thirds the cost of a student van thathas received only marginal use. It says little for our system of values if one of thefew campus organizations that encourages us to look beyond our ivy walls does notcontinue to receive our support.

It is true that ConnPIRG has not been readily "visible" to students, but it hashad to go through the "growing pains" most organizations have to endure hi theinitial years of development. ConnPIRG now has the chance to evolve into anincreasingly effective Instrument of student influence within the community. At atime when ConnPIRG may soon reach its potential, please lend your support byvoting to continue its funding.

LettersEnough is not EnoughTo the Editor:

The intelligent, worldly, dev-astatingly attractive female popu-lation at Trinity, who find them-selves moving onto greater hori-zons, leave this May with a"pearl" for all those women whoremain.

Foremost, we express our con-cern for you in that you mustventure off the confines of frat-ernity row, the Quad and SouthCampus to find an attractive, sixfoot, sober man.

Secondly, we offer our condol-ences to you for having to grin andbear the frisbees in the face, thehairless chests, the dousing of yourrooms with fire extinguishers, themashed potatoes on your chair atMather, the beer shampoos atformal parties, and the 4:00 a.m.firecrackers.

Finally, we implore you torefrain from giving up the ship.Maybe by your tenth reunion yourquest will be ended: one of yourclassmates will have conquered thedilemmas of adolescence.

Think of it this way: at least

your maternal instincts will blos-som during your extended visit atTrinity, as you will find yourselvesswarmed by peach-fuzzed, under-developed "gentlemen" whosevalues are found at the bottom oftheir cups of beer.

Signed,From those who see over the

"Disgusted'by Enough

To the Editor-.I wonder how many other

women on campus were as dis-gusted as I was by the letter thatappeared under the heading of"Enough" in the April 12 Tripod.It may be, as Linda Scott reports inher article about women's roles oncampus in the same issue, that theletter can be dismissed as being"too absurd to be dealt withrationally." But however absurd itmay seem, and whatever themotivation for either writing orprinting it, it still stands an insult,not only to the women on campus,

Misquoted?

To the Editor of the Tripod:

I was more than a littlesurprised to find myself quoted inlast week's Tripod as having saidthat the academic departments arenot actively recruiting women fortheir ranks. At no time did I makesuch a statement nor does it reflectmy sentiments or that of the groupwhich is looking into hiring proced-ures at the College.

The President's Special Councilon Women is in the process ofinterviewing a cross-section ofdepartment chairmen, hoping toformulate some recommendationwhich will facilitate hiring proced-ures, and ensure that women areadequately represented in thecandidate pools. The Council hasreached no conclusions about thehiring practices at Trinity.

We have been pleased at thedegree of interest and concernwhich chairmen have shown inmeeting with us.

I think it is important thatmembers of the College meet inopen forums to discuss importantissues, but I wish the Tripod wouldtake more care to report suchdiscussions accurately.

The Tripod respectfully stands byits story.

This is an absurd exam-ple, but it illustrates my point thatone, this person is "educated,"indeed, well-qualified for his job,and two, that a university wouldeven offer such a degree.

With the rise of student activ-

ism in the lV6U's, colleges anduniversities catered to the whims oftheir students. In a society growingmore complex every day, so theargument goes, one need have a"relevant" curriculum becausesuch courses are "useful" ingrooming the student for his or herniche in society.

Courses such as communica-tions, ecology, and film, bloatedcurriculums. Students should notbe the sole determinants of cur-riculum policy; of course contem-porary, "relevant" courses willalways be viewed as the most"useful." Vocational trainingshould be the job of vocationalschools.

The danger in offering "rele-vant" courses is a narrow educa-tion; four years of training cannotpresume to give the student totalknowledge, even in one discipline.A student emerging from college isthus encouraged in the mistakenbelief that he is educated, when infact his education is similar to thatof the park administrator.

in my opinion, in an increasing-ly complex society there is thestronger need for broadly educatedpeople, able to make rationaldecisions made impossible through"relevant" curriculums. The U.S.Government is a good (even"relevant") example of the needfor cross-departmental decisionmaking, affecting all branches ofsociety.

Like the bureaucrat, then a r r o w l y - e d u c a t e d p e r s o nsuccumbs to the limited frameworkof his expertise; the liberally-edu-cated are able to stand apart andview the multi-facetedrepercussions of a single action.While the narrowly-educated per-son is wrongly convinced of thetotality and thoroughness of hiseducation, the liberally-educatedindividual can only be convincedthat no matter how thorough ortotal his education, there is more toknow. He only knows what he doesnot know; his education is broadand rational. This is education; toacquaint the student with a varietyof disciplines and give him generalknowledge, thereby instilling in-centive to seek what he does notknow. In a four-year periodadquaintance and incentive, orgeneral knowledge with a littlecuriosity, are all education canhope to achieve.

Just a glimpse at a bulletinboard in Florida prompted thisoutburst, but the predicament ofliberal arts has relevance today atTrinity.- In this way I fully endorseany efforts by the AcademicCommittee to institute curriculumrequirements for a Trinity B.A.

To the Editor:This is in response to Vice

President Smith's open letter inlast week's Tripod about our "newexperiment" in security at NorthCampus. It is quite heartening tonote that the locks to be found ontwo of the seven doors on our formare comparable to those "used in anumber of the nation's finerprisons."

I always wanted to be aninmate; and how many inmates arelucky enough to be locked out of theinstitutions in which they reside?Seriously now--Mr. Smith praisesthe convenience of the new locks -no fumbling with keys- but seemsto ignore the inconvenience to thewomen en the second floor who arelimited co a single entrance to thebuilding.

Especially considering that theperson who designed the buildingwas probably drunk at the time andneglected to include an entrance onthe side of the building facing theparking lot- except for one into thebasement, which, "creepy" as itis, should still have a combinationlock on it permitting access.

Likewise, the door facing Vcr-non Street-ah, how many times Ihave cursed that locked door whenit was pouring rain or when myarms were loaded...Students do notwant to get ripped off- they justwant to be able to get into thebuilding that is supposedly theirhome for the school year.

Locked dorms arc fine and evendesirable, except when they nullifythe function of a door, which Ialways thought was for going inand out of.

Commentary

"Tuesday Nite Gong"

by Seth Price

I hear that the CurriculumCommittee has renewed the Hori-

~zons Program for next year, Acouple of weeks ago ProfessorMcNulty, who is in charge ofHorizons, wrote a letter to theTRIPOD in which he asked stu-dents to recommend possiblechanges in the program. In an.̂effort to upgrade the program, Ihave devoted many hours tocoming up with the followingproposal.

The basic premise should staythe same. On 21 Tuesdaysthroughout the year professorsrepresent ing p a r t i c u l a r

; departments will lecture on desig-nated topics of interest to them. Myfirst change, though, would involvea new name. I mean, who reallyappreciates the name "HorizonsProgram?" I've chosen to replacethis boring name with the innova-tive "Tuesday Night Gong."

Picture this: As the SRO crowdsettles itself in the Bushnell(Washington Room is too sterileand Goodwin Auditorium toosmall), the lights dim and a voiceover is heard saying, "Live fromHartford, it's 'Tuesday NightGong' and here's your host, BardMcNulty."

Professor McNulty comes onstage dressed in a tuxedo andexplains the rules of the show(show sounds much more interest-ing than program): "Good eveningand welcome tb another installment

of 'Tuesday Night Gong.' For thoseof you new to the show, let meexplain the rules. Every Tuesdaywe will hear from one professorwho will speak on a subject whichinterests him. He will have up toone hour to speak but, and here'swhere we think we've made ourshow the best around, after thirtyminutes, any of ten randomlyselected audience members havethe right to Gong our speaker andthus prematurely end the lecture."

The novelty behind thisapproach to education seems clear.Audience participation will un-doubtedly be a factor as we'll havethe spectators rooting for theirfavorites to get through theirlectures while calling for the Gongfor others.

Any lecturer who makes itthrough his hour will, of course, beevaluated by our panel on a scale ofA+ to D- (These letters can thenbe converted to numerical statis-tics).

At the end of the last lecture, all21 professors will be brought onstage and the winning prof will beannounced. At the same time, theworst lecturer will be chosen by ourpanel (audience participation wel-come). Both will be awarded the"Tuesday Night Gong" monetaryaward of $516.32.

Who knows? If the "TuesdayNight Gong" is successful, maybewe'll soon see Williams MemorialSquares in which students andprofs will compete for cash andprizes. .. . .;

"Horizons" lecturer Dr. Frank CMd spoke on Tuesday, April 12thin the Washington Room.

HorizonsBio CanBe Funby Marc BInmenthal

The Horizons program for 1976-1977 neared completion last Tues-day evening when Dr. Frank Child,professor of biology, delivered thetwentieth lecture of the series inthe Washington Room. His pre-sentation was entitled "The Biol- (ogy of Change: The Shaping ofHeredity and Development."

Child, noted for his dry (!) wit,thoroughly captivated his audiencewith his presentation which hesupplemented with slides andunexpected examples and analo-gies.

Child first defined biology inbroad terms as any or all contribu-tions to current knowledge bybiologists. These biologists rangefrom stereotyped researchers toecologists and administrators of theFood and Drug Administrationamong others.

The network of life that is ourworld is what biologists study, Thisnetwork is constantly undergoingan evolutionary process, that is,change.

Child took a universalisticapproach to describing the shapingof heredity and development.Rather than explain basic conceptsof biology in the standard textbookfashion, Child took a refreshingly,different approach. He assumed abasic level of understanding in hisaudience and treated his listenersto rare exercise of their imagina-tions.

Child spoke of the ralationshipsbetween DNA, RNA, proteins,genes, and chromosomes and howthose relationships affect life in thenetwork of Biology. '

The Case For Russian Studiesby Marc Blumenthal

This College has a fetish fordiscussing "the value of a liberalarts education." The topic is

•commendable, but the areas cover-ed at this institution are so vagueas to render the prospects fortangible action virtually unforesee-able. It is time for that not-so-sub-conscious intransigence to change.

; It is not my intention to dump a• panoply of new programs and; cirricular changes into the publish-

ed arena of the Tripod. There aremany areas for improvement andthey cannot all be covered ade-quately together. I propose todwell, therefore, on one program ofstudies.

This past spring vacation, somesixteen Trinity students had theprivilege of traveling to the SovietUnion with' Dr. Samuel Kassow,assistant professor of history, andMr. Jack Chatfield, lecturer in thesame department. This is not atravelogue of that trip, but rather, a

plea for responsible administratorsand members of the faculty toevaluate objectively the implica-tions of such an experience.

There may be no doubt thatTrinity College has the opportunityto support a Russian and SovietStudies Program of great caliber.Dr. Samuel Hendel, professor ofpolitical science, is an internation--ally recognized expert in the fieldof Soviet studies. Dr. James L.West, assistant professor of his-tory, Dr. Michael Sacks, assistant

srofessdr of sociology, and Dr.Kassow are scholars in theirrespective areas of expertise, al-most all of which concern Russianand Soviet Studies.

Many of those on the recent tripto the Soviet Union would havebenefited greatly if Trinity also hadan established course structure inRussian language and literature.As things stand now, generalcourses on Russia and the SovietUnion must spend valuable classtime oh the study of literature. One

lne issue.

Last year the embarrassingblatancy of Joke Night's humorousracism warranted an administrativehand-slap, a committee study (asusual) and a torching of the ivoryfrom the chapel tower by News-week, and the Can You Top Thisexpose of Joke Night racism.

Dealing with the situation incontext, TCB saw fit to denouncethe martyring of individuals thatwe felt were only instruments ofcampus wide racism. Ironically, itis these same S.G.A. instrumentswho have implemented racism thistime.

In context the struggle betweenT.C.B. and the Student Govern-ment Planning Board (formally theMather Hall Board of Governors) isold hat. The argument has alwaysbeen that T.C.B. has too muchmoney. However racist it was, it isnow worse.

One S.G.A. member impliedthat T.C.B. had not clearly estab-lished its priorities, political orsocial (a portion of the money

under question was to be used forsocial purposes). The only politi-cally oriented action carried outthis year reflected a T.C.B. posi-tion, that being the ransacking ofJeremy Shearer, minister fromSouth Africa.

Another S.G.A. argument wasthat Black Arts week, which ranfrom March 30th to April 5th, mayhave been too many events...andas testimony to their quality werepoorly attended.

Black esthetics are not only outof style for many white people butincreasingly out of mind. ThusT.C.B. must "reel in the slack" forthe waxing and waning of whiteattendance.

As a result racism roars onstronger than ever. A creative,diverse and expressive Black Artsweek is recognized by low atten-dance and a resulting budget cut.One consolation of being separatedfrom substantial working money isthe S.G.A. habit of bringingspeakers like Eldridge Cleaver,brainwashed, decadent and white

reactionary appealing.Budgets of Black Studies de-

partments and Black organizationshave been cut and commitmentscontinuously renegged on. It isapparent that the Administratorsdream come true has manifesteditself;"we'll just give it to the kidsand let them decide." And theyhave.

The single most repulsive stu-dent opinion seeks to deny T.C.B.the active responsibility it feels tothe group fully responsible forany Black presence at Trinity,Hartford's Black community. Asone S.G, A. member retorted, "I donot think the Student Activitymoney should be used to subsidize

• the Black Community." (Inciden-tally, our way of subsidizing theBlack community is to offer freelectures, speakers, poets, artistsand films. Any social entertain-ment has a non-Trinity I.D.charge). Silly ones, where wouldHartford, Trinity and CottonMather Hall be without tobacco-picking Black folks?

professor who also teaches Germanand a woman who is not evenaccorded the respect of being listedwith the modern language facultyat'the head of that department'scourse listings in the current"Courses of Instruction" bookletdo not provide a firm base for theadequate teaching of Russian lang-uage and literature at TrinityCollege.

This College is concerned os-tensibly with major influences onworld development, history andthought. How then can we remainwith our heads buried in the sandand pretend that the largestcountry in the world is lessimportant in its literary contribu-tions than France, Spain, Ger-many, or even, Italy?

Those in the upper echelons ofthe administration and the facultywill respond that they are verysorry, but the Trustees have frozenthe total size of the faculty. Well, itis time to change that, too. ThisCollege has claimed the distinctionof being one of the few small liberalarts colleges in the country to haverun in the black consistently. Hownecessary is it for the corporation tohave a substantial surplus (readprofit) while not honoring ' itsintellectual commitment to a cer-tain high level of education?

It is more than simply disap-pointing to have the opportunity totravel to the Soviet Union, to beintellectually fired by the sight ofbuildings and places which one hasstudied most avidly, and then toreturn to a College devoid of theeducational mechanism enablingfurther indepth study. If Trinity isto be true to its liberal artsobjectives, then it has the obliga-tion, indeed, the duty to provide itsstudents with the option to study acivilization which has had andcontinues to have profound in-fluence in the world.

Small Change: The World of Childrenby Stephen Forsllng "

A movie whose cast consistsentirely of children but is never-theless made for adults may soundlike a film to run from, particularlyto those of us who fondly recallW.C. Fields' retort when asked ifhe liked children—"only if they'reproperly cooked." FrancoisTruffaut's new film Small Change,(which will play at Cinescudio fromApril 20-23) however, is fair gameto win over even the mostdyed-in-the-wool of us kiddiecannibals. The film, episodic instructure and with no real plot line,deals with the varied experiencesof provincial schoolchildren inThiers, France.

Much of the success of SmallChange is no doubt due to its

hilarious universality: in one shortsequence a boy is called upon torecite by his teacher. With oneminute left to the school day, theboy rises ever so slowly, his eyesglued to the clock. His teacher callson him again. After what hasseemed like an eternity the bellrings, children charge out of theroom aria the boy is home free. Forthose of us who have ever sat inclass wishing time away (and whohasn't?) the boy's escape is atriumph—it makes us laugh outloud.

- The children in Small Changeare a pretty sharp bunch, andTruffaut records their antics withsuch an earnest concern for theirimportance that the film is oftenvery funny. There are manysequences to treasure: a neighbor;'"rescue mission" carried out for a

girl who uses a loudspeaker toannounce she is hungry, a first datein a darkened movie theater, a dirtyjoke told by a little boy who doesn'treally understand it himself, andothers.

Truffaut's vision is all-inclusiveof life, however, and Small Changealso portrays the painful side ofchildhood. One boy, physicallyabused by his family and thrownout of his home, covers up hisbruises. It is only through a schoolcheckup that they are discoveredand his family situation is broughtto light. Deeply moved by theincident, a teacher lectures hisstudents on the importance ofchildren's rights in an adult world.His enlightened sermon is anobvious mouthpiece for Truffaut,but we would find it difficult toargue with the sentiments express-

ed in it.Truffaut's perception is a fairly

unique one, for Small Change isone of the few films in which wetruly respect children as individu-als. A boy buys roses for hisfriend's beautiful mother as anexpression of his feelings for her.His unrequited love has truedignity, which isn't something wegenerally associate with children. Itis all the more shattering, then,that the woman assumes the rosesare from the boy's father. Chil-dren's feelings are important, andnever once are they belittled in thefilm. Small Change portrays chil-dren without the condescension,nostalgia, or sentimental claptraptraditionally associated with chil-dren in film.

With his fluid and mobilecamera Truffaut simply makes his

film and lets the kids do the rest.We are not manipulated, "exceptperhaps by love. In one remarkablesequence a three year old childclimbs out of a third story windowand sits on the ledge, hanging on tothe railing. The audience gaspsf-fearing he will fall. Almost beforewe know it, we see him tumblingthrough the air. He lands on theground, completely unhurt, laugh-ing the whole thing off while we inthe audience heave a sigh of relief.

Small Change is a tribute to theindestructability of children. Asone parent later comments on theincident..."If that had happened to .an adult, he would have been laid Iout flat, but kids always seem to \bounce back. Children are in a jstate of grace." Truffaut (with a jlittle help from some friends) _ j ;makes us believe it.

'Brown Sugar"Bubblesby Janet Rogers

Bubbling Brown Sugarexplodes across the stage of NewYork's ANTA Theatre in a spec-tacle of music, dance and costum-ing. Based on the great music ofHarlem in the period between 1920and 1940, the show is a musicalrevue featuring songs written andoriginally performed by such re-nowned names as Duke Ellington,Louis Armstrong and Billy Holi-day, and the hot night spots wherethis music was first heard, such asConnie's Inn and the Savoy.

Bubbling Brown Sugar is pract-ically made by its costuming anddance. The costumes were not onlyaccurate in their depictions of'thestyles of the various periods shown,but were also interesting andattractive. The dancing and chore-ography were superb. The types ofdancing ranged from tap to "stroll-ing" and all were executed beauti-fully as was especially shown insuch numbers as Stompin' at .theSavoy/Take the lA' Train.

However important these fac-tors may have been, BubblingBrown Sugar needed the talents ofthree actress/singers to make it asuccessful evening. - The;" first ofthese is Carolyn Byrd who, in thefourth scene of Act I, takes whathas been a slow, somewhat medi-ocre show, and turns it around witha gospel medley of His Eye is onthe Sparrow and Swing Low SweetChariot. Then Ms. Byrd singsStormy Monday Blues and com-pletely confirms her talent.

Secondly, Ethel Beatty turns ina rendition of I've Got It Bad in a

f voice that fills every corner of thetheatre with its rich fullness andhaunts the audience, for sometime

--, •• cafter she's finished,Tne third very impressive per-

formance was by Ursaline Kairson,a small woman with a largebeautiful voice. She sings severalnumbers most notably SweetGeorgia Brown and her poignantrendition of Billie Holiday's GodBless the Child.

The "stars" of Bubbling BrownSuy-ir are Avon Long, who createdthe role of Sportin' • Life in theoriginal Broadway production ofPorgy and Bess, JosephinePremice, who has performed inBroadway shows and in nightclubsall over the world, and JosephAttles who, among his numerousother Broadway roles, playedopposite Paul Robeson in JohnHenry. The book for BubblingBrown Sugar was written by LoftenMitchell and the original music isby Danny Holgate, Emme Kempand Lillian Lopez.

The original music and the bookarc the basic flaws of the show. Theoriginal music is undistinguishedand relatively uninteresting as isthe dialogue and much of theacting. These combine to make thebeginning of the show, which is setin Harlem in the 1970s, weak anddragging. However, since so muchof the show was the old music anddance, these deficiencies, whilethey did detract from the show, didnot ruin it. It is when the playleaves present day Harlem andgoes back to the twenties that itbecomes worthwhile. It is then thatwe hear the great old music andexperience the full effect of thecostume and dance.

Despite the weaknesses indialogue, acting and the originalmusic written for the show, theexcellent renditions of the songsand music of old time Harlem andthe brilliant choreography, dancersand costuming make BubblingBrown Sugar a worthwhile andentertaining evening.

mented with new environmentsand techniques in dance. In searchfor unique settings, Ms. Keen'simagination has taken her dancersfrom the Boardwalk at ConeyIsland to a rooftop at Broadway and12th Street.

Jack Anderson of Dance Maga-zine says: "I don't know what kindof spell Elizabeth Keen casts uponher dancers, but it must be magicof some kind." Apparently Ms.Keen's magic is not limited to herdancers but extends to the audi-.-ence as well} making-.for a highlyenjoyable and exciting event.

Elizabeth Keen has a broadbackground as both a performer/choreographer and teacher, Hevwork with the Paul Taylor DanceCompany and the Helen Tamiris-Daniel Nagrin Company as a soloistcontributed to her present style.She has taught dance to membersof the American Shakespeare Festi-val (for whom she choreographed aplay within a play scene forHamlet), to artists and architects atPratt Institute and to musicians aswell as students. Her choreo^graphic experience includes dancesfor the off Broadway productions ofThe Beggar's Opera and Anna K aswell as pieces for the City CenterActing Company's production ofThe Hostage.Her company is nowpreparing for a national tour.

attempt to start a female oraltradition in Biblical interpretation.The stories they tell give life to theancient women of the Bible. Wesee the joy that Sara experiences ingiving birth to Isaac after manyyears of barrenness, only to killherself in grief when Abrahamtakes Isaac to sacrifice him to theLord. We see Deborah leading her.people into battle, and rejoicing inher womanhood after the victory.We see Lilith, born as-man's equal,raped by a jealous Adam, andreborn as passive Eve.

Spanish Theatre at Trinityby Bob Hurlock

On Friday evening, April 8, LaVoz Latina along with the studentsof Spanish of the Hartford Collegefor Woman sponsored a Spanishdramatical production of two shortplays by Cervantes performed bythe "Aula de Teatro" from theUniversity of Valladolid, directfrom Spain. The event was one ofmany sponsored as part of La VozLatina's Annual Trinity CollegeLatin Awareness Week. In spite ofthe holiday weekend, the eventproved to be highly successful witha crowd of over 200 people showingup for the performance.. Manystudents and professors from col-leges throughout Connecticut andmany members of Hartford'sPuerto Rican community came totake advantage of this rare oppor-tunity to see Spanish theatre inaction.

The "Aula de Teatro" present-ed two "entremeses" (interludesor short one-act farces usuallyinterjected between major produc-tions) by the great Spanish literaryfigure, Muguel de Cervantes, bestknown for his work Don Quixote dela Mancha. They were "El Retablode Maravillas" and "El ViejoCeloso." Although these"cntremeses" appear to be purecomedy on the surface, Cervantesis known for inserting some serious

social commentary within the looseplot.

Immediately following theplays, there was a receptionsponsorea by the Spanish Clubheld in Wean Lounge which offeredthe opportunity for discussion,music, dance, and relaxation. OnFriday afternoon, there was aninformal talk on "Spanish TheatreToday'' also held in Wean Lounge.The director, Professor JuanAntonio Quintana, who studieddrama at the Centre Dramatique atNancy, France and acted in playsby Arthur Miller, Garcia Lorca,Lope de Vega, and Salinas, and theactors and actresses presentedtheir views on contemporary Span-ish theatre—its freedoms andlimitations under the Spanishgovernment and its role in present-day Spanish society. Students werethen given the chance to ask anyquestions they might have. On thewhole, it was both enjoyable andinformative.

The "Aula de Teatro," underthe direction of Professor Quin-tana, was established in 1957 at theUniversity of Valladolid and isconsidered one of the most presti-gious theatre groups in Spain. Thegroup has performed throughoutSpain and in 1973 was awarded theNational Prize of Chamber andExperimental Theatre.

SUNDAY NlGtfT HAPPY HOUR

Dancers Please Crowdby Catherine Under

At 8:30 P.M. on Friday, April15, the Washington Room turnedinto a stage for Holly Catchings,Sara Ingram, and Jay Todd. As thelights came up, all three walked ondressed predominantly in black,white and red. They introducedthemselves and opened "An Even-ing of Dance" with a warmwelcome to the audience. Theyperformed as modern dancers buttheir added flair for theatricaltechniques easily could have quali-fied them as mimists or actors. Theaudience experienced nine pieces,with each one creating a verydifferent mood or atmosphere.

It was fun to see the manycostumes and musical numbersthat were chosen to help coordinatethe pieces. Although each numberwas carefully choreographed, theydid not, by any means, create anunnatural feeling or planned effect.One could truly sense the energy ofthe group as a tightly knit unit andof each individual as a vital part ofthat unit.

One piece which was particu-larly unique was called "Summer-time". It was choreographed byIngram and danced by Ingram andTodd. The music is by JanisJoplin. In this dance, it was thequality rather than the movementitself which seemed so important.The way in which the dancersinterpreted Janis Joplin's some-what depressing view of summerseemed accurate yet sad.

To act as a balance to"Summertime", the next piecewas one which was light andhumorous. The music was byChuck Berry and the piece wasfittingly called "Berry's World".The portrayal of a typical fiftiessockhop with its jitterbug atmos-phere was refreshing right down tothe white bobby socks and saddleshoes.

The fact that each of theperformers choreographed all of

their own pieces was impressive initself, but the effort and imagina-tive ideas which went into eachpiece were even more astounding.Many of their movements werefree-flowing yet others expressedtension and strength. Sustain-ing each of these movementsshowed deep concentration and agreat deal of the performers'concern and care for their show.

After several other pieces,including ah obscure, frightening

one with music by Joan Baez, thefinal piece was performed. It wasentitled "Home Plate" and per-formed to music by Bonnie Raitt. Itwas a cheerful number withcolorful costuming which includedred, yellow and blue striped socksand colored caps and shorts. Itended the show on a happy notewhich was enjoyable to all.

P>M., the touring Bus Company ofthe National Theatre Institute willpresent "Algonquin Sampler" inThe Goodwin Theatre of AustinArts Center. "Algonquin Sampler"is an original dramatic adaptationof poems, sketches, and mono-logues by Robert Benchley, Dor-othy Parker, James Thurber andothers.

The piece is named for thefamous Algonquin Round Table ofNew York's Algonquin Hotel. TheRound Table was an informal socialclub of writers, critics, and journa-lists, including such leading figuresas columnist Heywood Brown,playwright and critic George S.Kaufman, New York Times editorAlexander Woollcott, and HaroldRoss, founder of the New Yorkermagazine. :

The Algonquin was a gatheringplace for theatre people, andconsequently for critics and mana-gers. Woollcott and Ross frequent-ly had lunch there to discussbusiness, and there they metBenchley and Parker, who hadrecently become drama critics forVanity Fair, the leading arts andletters publication of the time. Thetype of humour that they sharedblended naturally with Woollcort'sand Ross' fanatical respect for the

ABC

power of language, forming thebasis for the Round Table and thewitty, sophisticated world view itcame to exemplify.

Ross had dreams of founding anew literary magazine, to be thestandard for high culture andsophisticated taste. The RoundTable supported his idea, agreeingthat the extant publications hadfallen into banality. Benchley andParker contributed heavily, andsoon the New Yorker found adedicated readership. JamesThurber, an unknown in New York,decided that the magazine wouldbe the perfect outlet for his work.After several unsuccessfulattempts to publish there, he got ajob on the editorial staff throughhis friend E.G. White. There he

..met Benchley, Parker, and theother Round Table writers, begin-ning an alliance that would bringworld attention to a new, peculiarlyAmerican brand of humor.

Through dramatic, presenfajign,of some of the finest works to comeout of this movement, "AlgonquinSampler" will re-create the moodof this critical and incisive—andinescapably funny—way of lookingat ourselves, which has made sucha deep and lasting impression onAmerican thought.

Action began with the Fresh-men Heavies who rowed throughy.Mass. but finished behind U.R.I.

The J.V. Heavies rowed asteady race and were leading by'wo lengths when U.Mass. caughta monstrous crab. Trinity Finished45 seconds ahead.

The Varsity Lightweights wereven with U.R.I, after a delayed

start , but couldn't seem to hang

on. After dropping a length behind,they sprinted in vain and lost by sixseconds.

Rowing without the services ofinjured powerhouse-Harry Graves,the Bantams' Varsity Heaviesovercame a small deficit at thestart to defeat U.Mass. by sixseconds and U.R.I, by almost aminute. Special recognition is dueto Jim Gardner and Dave Teich-mann who rowed in unfamiliarboats to compensate" for Graves'absence.

Trta heavies Dave Greenspan [cox], Charlie Poole, Steve Berghansen, Paul Wendler, Peter Van Loon,Tom Knowlton, Geoff Stiles, Jim Gardner and Jim Plagenhoef stroke their way to victory InMason-Downs Regatta last Saturday.

Trinity started this game withan almost entirely new lineup.Sophomore Bill Irving assumed thecatcher's duties, Ouellette movedinto right, Rowland went to left,Leone at third and Joe LoRussoplayed first base. O'Leary becameTrin's designated hitter.

In the first inning, Rowlandsmashed a homerun with O'Leary

on third to give the Bants a quick2-0 lead. Wyman and Leone, also,singled in the inning. In thesecond, Ouellette scored after 2errors. Errors also led to a CoastGuard run. Thus at the end of two,it was 3-1 Trinity.

The rest of the game proved tobe all Trinity. In the fourth,"Ouellie" scored again. After

reaching on an error; he was movedon when Irving took 1st due tointerference and Lortie sacrificedhim home for a 4-1 lead. The Bantsadded their fifth run in the fifthwhen O'Leary singled and Rowlandboomed a triple. In the seventhRowland doubled for his fourth hitof the game and LoRusso singledhim home to notch the Bantams"°cond victory of the day. In

Baseball Bounds Back c ,

by Nancy McDennottThe varsity baseball team re-

bounded from two losses earlier inthe week by capturing a doubleheader from Coast Guard onSaturday, 11-9 and 6-1. Earlier, theBants lost to Williams 13-7 andCoast Guard 7-6.

On Tuesday, the Elis of Willi-ams came to Trinity and shockedthe Bantams in the early inningsbefore Trinity could muster anyoffensive attack. Bill Lynch startedthe game but was relieved byFreshman Halsey Frank in the 3rdinning. Thus the Bants foundthemselves down 8-0 in the thebottom of the fourth and fought therest of the time to stay in the game.In an effort to come back the Bantsscored 4 runs in the fourth. Theinning was highlighted by a singleby Daye Weselcouch and doublesby Mike Brennan and pinch hitterJim Leone.

In the fifth Williams scoredagain, but Trinity was able to getthat run back in the sixth as a resultof superb base running by RobClaflin. Claflin walked and man-aged to round the bases and scoreon a series of overthrows by theElis. thus after six, Williams led9-5.

In the seventh, Trinity scored

two more to make a game out ofwhat appeared to have been arunaway. Bob O'Leary singled,Mike Ouellette came in to pinchrun and Mike Wyman and JimSmith walked. John Rowlandreached on a fielder's choice andOuellie scored. Wyman also scoredon an error; making it 9-7 Williams.

-Neither team scored in theeighth, so going into the last inningit was still either team's ballgame.Things seemed to be in Trinity'sfavor as Alex Waugh threw out anEli trying to stretch a double into atriple. Unfortunately, the Elis hadone big play left. With the basesloaded, a long home run wassmashed over the left field fence.The grand slam wrapped the gameup for Williams 13-7.i On Thursday, Trinity playedCoast Guard at home. Seniorrighthander Jim McGrath startedthis game for the Bants. Trinitytook to the offensive first, scoringunanswered runs in the second,fifth and sixth innings. The secondinning attack was led by singles byRowland and Weselcouch. LenLortie's single and a triple by AlectYaugh accounted for the secondrun and in the sixth, Wyman'ssingle scored Brennan who reachedon a fielder's choice artd stolesecond.

The Coasties were not to beheld in check. They scored theirfirst run in the seventh on errorsand one hit and in the eighth ahome run closed the gap to 3-2.

The action become intense inthe ninth as Coast Guard took thelead 4-3 on a homerun, 2 walks,and 2 singles. Suddenly, Trinity,which had been ahead the wholegame faced a must score situationin the 9th. Paul Pieszak and Lortiewalked. Claflin reached on afielder's choice that moved Pies-zak to' 3rd. Ouellette came in topinch run for Pieszak. With 2 outs,Waugh hit what appeared to be aneasy pop fly right behind thesecond baseman; but it wasdropped, allowing Trin to tie thescore.

In the 10th inning, the Coastiesbegan to hit McGrath. Theyconnected for five singles. BillLynch relieved McGrath, but twocostly errors in addition to the hitsallowed Coast Guard to take thelead 7-4. Again, Trinity had toscore. Rowland, Brennan andLeone each singled to score 2 runs.But a new pitcher for Coast Guardmanaged to hold the Bants andsecure a victory 7-6.

-Laxwomen Deal Cards Defeat-

Sophmore standont Cackie Bostwick lowers the boom on a verysorry Wesleyan opponent while Trin's Carter Worts looks on daringlast Monday's lax action.

by Eileen Dover

Everything was going right forthe women's lacrosse team lastMonday as they faced Wesleyan,always a rival but never a threat.The offensive line worked well,passing, cutting, and ultimatelyscoring, while the defense main-tained its man-to-man strategy andseldokm let any Wesleyan playerapproach the goal. It was, in everysense of the work, a rout,- acompletely one-sided game inwhich the Trinity team demon-strated its ability to control the ballat both ends of the field, and toquickly move upfield out of dang-erous areas with short, quick, and •well-timed passes.

Wesleyan scored the first goal,but it was the last time they wouldlead. Trinity, stormed back, andabout ten minutes later, had a 5-2lead. They scored twice more in thefirst half for a 7-2 half-time lead.The second half was no different asTrinity's play quickly improved,and both offense and defense were"awesome. Each player played herposition, and demonstrated trueteamwork, passing, catching, andcutting when needed. The finalscore was 16-3 with both SusanEckles and Carter Wurts scoringfive goals a piece, Laurie Fergus-

,. son with three, Margo Halle two,.and.Cackie Bostwick one. It was a

gctod game in which to work on

different plays and strategies, andthe end result was successful.

And then Yale. Their merename evokes tension and frustra-tion as Trinity has come ever soclose to beating them, yet alwaysfalling short. Last year Trin lost by9-8, and while the score this yearimplies a one-sided game, in realityit was an extremely close andexciting game. Yale came out justas "psyched" as Trinity, andscored within the first few minutes.Luck was against Trinity as SusanEckles had two goals disqualifiedfor rather dubious reasons withinthe next five minutes. Frustrationwas beginning to show on Trinity'sfaces as Yale's defensive zone wasimpenetrable. Fergusson snuckthrough, however, and tied thescore. Yale came back with twomore goals to match Wurts' firstgoal. Wurts then scored her secondto tie the score once more, butYale, playing superb offense, gottwo more goals, and it was 5-3 athalftime. •

Eckles scored Trinity's fourth"goal to open the half, and itappeared that they were on acomeback. But Yale scored twoquick goals, and from then on itwas an uphill battle. The playmoved from one end to the other,and the quality of play was topnotch. But Yale's zone provedindestructible, and Trinity's

offense could not reach the goalie.The defense, on the other hand,was outstanding. Kay Lockwood,Amey Witbeck, Olivia Brown,Bunny Crocker,^ Janie Papps, andAnn Warner were spectacular, andall played a tight and closechecking game, keeping and eye ontheir player yet always there to pickup the free "man." The final scoremay have been 10-4, but that is notindicative of the style and quality ofthe game. Next year will be theyear.

Saturday was beautiful, theweather perfect. The crowd wasenthusiastic, the teams of equalability, and in general, it was agreat day for a great game. Andthat is what happened.

With the crowd cheeringloudly, the playing was excellent,and it was a close contest. Bothoffenses were quick, and bothdefenses relentless. With less than,two minutes left, Tufts scored totake the lead, and in the last fifteenseconds, they assured their victorywith their ninth goal. The finalscore was 9-7, and it was indeed anexcellent game.

The J.V. played next in theirfirst game, and proved they wereas good a team as the varsity. Theycompletely controlled the game,and kept the ball down at the Tufts'end for most of the time. TrinaAbbot was high scorer with fourgoals, both Kathleen Fell andGinger Maclea had three, CarolZug scored two, and Jane Beddal,Letitia Erler, Coppie Tucker andRosie Whitney each scored one.The final score was 16-1, and that isindicative of the high quality of theJ.V. team.
