Mercyhurst College has beengranted y slightly more than$20,000 from the Council for theAdvancement of Small Colleges(CASC), but had no one to administrate spending of the fundsas The Merciad went to press.A search committee chaired byMariiynn Jewell extended untilThursday, O ct 4 , the deadline forapplying for the $10,000 per yearposition of CASC Project on-campus coordinator.The {immediate responsibility

of the CASC coordinator will bethe development of the BlueprintIII proposal to evaluate andrevise Mercyhurst's academicphilosophy.The CASC coordinator willhave a wide range of other duties,as well, for evaluating fiscal,curricular and academic matters. Roughly defined, the CASCcoordinator will be the head of anon-campus agency for researchand planning,"There are so many roles thatA f f i r m a t i v e A c t i o n T o M o v eTh e j Mercyhurst" CollegeAffirmative Action,,- office,presently located in Preston 206,will be moving soon to what isno w the law enforcement office atthe west end of first floor Main.g Fu rth er ^details** will bepublished in The Merciad whenthe move is completed. YrfiThe IAffirmative f Actionprogram was created and fundedBy HEW to provide grievancehear ings! for students who i feelthey have been disqrimanatedagainst on the basis of race, sex,religion or a g e . Three cases have

been reviewed since the Mercyhurst office opened two yearsa g o .Affirmative Action officerMariiynn Jewell will reviewcomplaints of discrimination, andif the case requires arbitration, itwill bepresented to theAffirmative Action Committee ofthe College Senate.The grievance procedure iscurrently being reviewed by theCollege*' Senate. / Robeift F.Prather, vice president ofdevelopment, iswriting theAffirmative Action Plan.

"This position removes oneindividual and allows him or herto look at the research, planningand development for the entireinstitution."The CASC co-ordinator willreport recommendations toMercyhurst College President,Dr. Marion L. Shane.Jewell said the ideal CASCcoordinator would be a memberof the college faculty or administration with at least fouryears of experience here."We want someone whoknows Mercyhurst," she said.Jewell added, however, that ailapplications are welcome.CASC is an organization of 60small colleges created under afederal grant from the department of Health, Education and.Welfare.Search committee memberJohn Nesbit, Mercyhurst'sdirector of grants, was the primemover in the drive for CASCfunds, according to Jewell. Othersearch committee members areJudith Bradley and Dr. MichaelMcQuiUen.

The most popular of allhouseplants may^, be thephilodendron; the most popularFLOWERING houseplant isalmost certainly the AfricanViolet. Both came -iinto voguecomparat ively Jrecently^andthrough rather strange circumstances, that of the AfricanViolet after the invention of thefluorescent light. |"African Violetsnot at allrelated to true violetswereintroduced into the U nited Statesat the turn of the century.jTheyremained splendid curiosities forthe rich, since their culture andcare seemed beyond themostpatient amateur horticulturist.Because of their tropical originsin Tanganyika (at levels? of 100feet and higher) it was impossibleto grow them in the unheatedhouses of the day.However, central heating wasmaking great J inroads inAmerican homes by the 1920'sand 1930's. By the end of theKorean War, the African Violetcult had truly begun to blossom.

New hybrids were made almosteverblooming. With ?as \ few asthree plants, you were assured ofcontinuous flowers all yeararound. And more important, itwas discovered that they did evenbetter under ? the recentlydeveloped fluorescent lights thanthey did in Nature. Hybridizationexpanded ') into monstrousproportions and now there arethousands of varieties*many ofthem so much alike even theiroriginators can't tell them apart.The Usambara, or AfricanViolet, was discovered by theUsambara Imperia l Dis tr ic tCaptain of the German Empire,Baron Walter von Saint Paul-Illaire. In 1892, he dispatchedeither plants or seeds to his fatherin Silesia. The elder von SaintPaul grew the plants and tookseveral specimens *to the localdirector of the royal botanicalgardens. The director, namingthem SAINTPAULIA after theirdiscoverer and adding Honantha,the Latin ffor "with violetlikeflowers," exhibited them atjthe

Ghent International HorticulturalExhibit a few years later. Theydrew rave reviews and admiringcollectors,! as they h ave eversince.It was in the 1930's that the firmof Armacost and Royston inCalifornia began a serious mass-scale hybridization of Saint-paul ias . By 1936, they haddeveloped tenvarieties, all j ofwhich were to form the backboneof today's hybrid strains.7One of the most popularflowering houseplants, thisspecies is available in countlessvarieties and colors. Both singleand double varieties are grown.The leaves vary considerable insize according to variety but on a3" stem they are usually about2 V long and nearly 2" wide. Themost popular flower colors areviolet-Blue, pink and white. Pinchout thefflowers as they die off,and keep the soil somewhat dryfor a period of four to six weeksuntil flower budsi appear, thenreturn to normal watering.Always use tepid water, and lift

the leaves gently before pouringthe water onto the soil (also youcan water theplant from thebottom if the pot has,drainagewhich will ! save possiblewaterlog). Ifwater touches theleaves, it may leave unsightlymarks. jj** African Violets quickly succumb to overwatering but do w ellif plunged, in their pots, into acontainer ofmoist peatmoss. Aminimum of 551degrees and ashaded place are essential to theplant's well-being.African Violets can bepropagated fayone of 2 the twofollowing methods: | H1) Remove a leaf (stem and all)and submerge the stem at least2" into a glass of water, and after

roots appear, plant it in moist soilto take root and bear clusters ofsmall plant lets, which later onshould be separated. |r2) Instead of placing the stem inwater, place it in vermiculite,perlite, or some other form ofrooting medium, and wait for theplantlets to appear beforetransplanting them into separatepots of humus soil. Make sure tokeep the rooting medium moist atiall times (and not soaking wet!)or the medium will dry out alongwith your leaf.African Violets may require alittle added attention and extralove, but in the end it's a jobdually rewarded!

I watched them playand there were hardly any people there and they played until it wasdark, having the match called.>Now all the members of the women's tennis team which include;Mary Ann King, Rose Ann Bauer, Andy Sotelo, Pam Barbato, JaneKerstetter, Mildred Choice, Paula Pizzat, Michelle Durant, andDelia Cavanaugh, hold tight, because I know how it feels whenpeople don't show up to see you in action.-< At least people will know who you are eve n if they don't want towatch you play. \ &T T < ^g*Congratulations to the Soccer team for winning their first gam eever, which was against Geneva.I told everyone at the beginning that things would look up, andthey did. With the inexperience of a first y ear team, Coach Shlm-peno has a lot of promise to look forward to.On the Intramural Football scene, the Henry's have surfaced tothe top of the standings with a 3-0 record. Pot Luck, Rolling ThunderReview, and P-Funk have also been impressive with 2-1 marks.Relatively High, once an MFL power, and the Family have yet towin a game. %This week I have analysed the MFL quarterbacks and theirsuccess in the first three games. ?How can anybody stop the Henry's passing combination of MarkHoak to Bob Ferdiani? j \ > P ? |

In the Henry's first three games, Ferdiani has caught six touchdown passes for a totahof 220 yards not to mention all other passes.Along with Hoak, Rolling Thunder Review sports a fine quarterback who canrun and throw in Jim D effner. Deffner has passedfor two touchdowns and run for three. \Dan "Chipmonk" Downing has showed versatility as he has runfor two touchdowns and caught one touchdown pass. He alsoquarterbacks and has thrown one touchdown pass.Kevin Butler of P-Funk also has looked promising as he hasconnected on three touchdown passes and has run for two morelThe last of my quarterbacks is Ray Korzanowski of Pot Luck.Korzanowski has* passed for three touchdowns including two 45yarders to Lament Prince, and has one scoring run.*; ?,:Next week I will analyze the defensive specialists.This W eek's SportsSaturday, October 16Soccer team vs .
