    Staring out th e little window of the Merciad office,*! wasn'treally sure what to comment on for this week's paper.Just theft it haDP-.f * ut in the parking lot of Preston,two students, uaf* .~M.c kip John DeB arberie, were busywashing two big, dirty, Ford LTD's. The owners of thesemonsters I learned, were President M arion L . Shane and Dr.Jerry M . Trimble.Picking up a pad of paper I scurried out to the lot to conduct an interview. \8 "Hey, Kline, DeBar, what are you guysdoing," I asked."Washing th e president's and dean's cars," said DeBar.Thinking for a second Clocked at Kline. "Are you guysdoing this out of th e goodness of your hearts ?''" N o , " replied Kline, "We're onwork study." |Recognizing the situation at hand, I couldn't help but askwhich car gave them th e toughest problem. "The dean's car gave us some problems. I think itwa sbecause of th e rust,'' comm ented Kline. I "Well, that can always be aproblem," I said laughing.'Hey, DeB ar, d o y o u think you'll start washing th e faculty'scars too? " i|5$ "W e were asked," said DeBar, "but I don't think we will."At that point DeBar sprayed the president's car whichKline had just dried.M. "DeBar, you're getting m y car wet," yelled Kline."Do y o u think this could b e a weekly thing, DeB ar?"Pausing for a second, DeB ar looked u p from where h e wa swashing. "Yea, itcould be a weekly thing. If we charge adollar a car, w e could support our way through school."'It's a lot of work for tw o bucks an hou r," chimed in Kline.As he washed off the last bit of dirt from the dean's car,DeB ar stood b y his finished product with a grin o n h i s face."Good work, fellas. You guys are really underpaid a t twobucks an hour before taxe s," I said a s I walked off."You know it," said Kline. | jj i? 1(Ed. NoteInline and DeB ar have reportedly tried out forthe 1980 Car Washing Olympics to be held at Salve Maria

    College. DeBar told the M erciad that though he can 't afforda ca r to clean b ecause of the rising costs in tuition, he does"havehopes ofPr^idenrSnaneletBng him borrow nls carforthe contest. Kline meanwhile is convinced that Dr. Shane'scar is made out of acrylic. "It shines to o easily. I just hope itisn't against th e Olympic Car Wash rules," h e said.)Happy Birthday Te rry Kelly. Terry, if y o u haven't noticedby now, is our sports editor. This is Terry's second year atthe Merciad and next year he'll be eligible for our pensionplan. k

    *& I w a s amazed at th e number of students w h o turned o u t forthe education meeting on Sunday, October 1 6 . The meetingshowed, at least to some of u s , that some students do carewhat's going on in their major, a J %g | M r. Brian McHugh should be congratulated on theorganization of the m eeting. The only thing that went wrongwas the speaker was an hour late. Dr. Lehman was a halfhour late but in hist true form McHugh said, "Well, {thespeake r is late. Let's go over to the faculty lounge and party." K 1$% Brian w a s appointed the head of th e education departmentthis fall. The speaker h e brought in was both interesting andenlightening^ It's a shame we don't have other speakers ofgthis caliber. M | | *

    E THE WAY TO GET AHEAD at Mercyhurst, it seems, is to polish the old apple-or in this case, theBoss* ear. Two students, John DeBarberie (left) and Dave Kline, were assigned to wash autos belongingto Drs. Trimble and Shane Tuesday as a work-study Job. See "The Editor" column on page 2 for details.

    Staff Formed,j Bids HeardYearbook Chances Boosted >/s

    1 A publisher's low bid and theenthusiasm of some Mercyhurststudents have given hope to thepublication of the college -year^book.* *I Late last month the publicationof the Praeterita was doubtful,according to Student ServicesDirector William Kennedy. Thebook had run at a financial lossfor two consecutive | yearsbecause of a lack of* sal es;Mercyhurst Student Governmentwas concerned that \ it \ couldhappen again. Sa; flf But a fte r] discussion, MSGdecided to go with a Ibook andMatthew Hill, senior law len-f orcement major, was chosen as

    By Sue Fusseditor by Kennedy and Dr. D avidPalmer. 2J*ML fc ^ ~ _Dr. Palmer, previously thefaculty advisor for the yearbook"decided to give up the positionthis year. Hill is presently approaching other faculty mem bersabout taking the job. $Kennedy, HOI and other staffmembers listened f to presentations from three publishingcompanies before deciding onWalsworth Publishing of Erie."We got some of the lowest bidsI've ever seen," Hill said. * || As a result, there is a betterchance that the yearbook will bepublished. A minimum number ofsubscriptions still is needed.

    'Summer And Smoke 9Rozsas Sr . Thesis5 After sorting and reading some50 plays, theater major MaryannRozsas I chose Summer AndSmoke, by Tennesee W illiams,for her senior thesis.The production of the upcomingplay will present Ms. Rozsas witha challenging role.? She willportray Alma, a? minister 'sdaughter who is torn between themoral and passionate halves ofher characte r (see photos onpage 5)."Ninety-nine per cent of theplay centers around Alm a/' Ms.Rozsas told The Merciad. iThe additional duties involvedin puttingXtogether aa * seniorthesis they included casting,costume coordination and basic

    5 entireequallyorganization^ of theproductions -1 a redemanding, she said."Because it's really countingfor two courses, it involves a lotof work," she said. "A hell of a lotmore work than two courses."Ms. Rozsas said nearly everywaking | momentf|has beendevoted to pre paring } for theperformance.The production will be held inthe Little Theater Friday andSaturday, October 28 and 29; andThursday through? Saturday,November 3-5.Curtain time is 8 p.m. nightly.Admission is free for Mercyhurststudents.

    \

    Corrections, Etc.It was incorrectly reported inlast week's issue that MercyhurstStudent Government will coverany deficit iff a yearbook ispublished and fails to break evenFinancially. i'* President George Venuto saidMSG will cover a small loss if ithas the funds at the end of theyear, but thatfrno commitmenthas been made.

    something at stake here,something mat MSG i representatives and officers are scaredabout and -that's that anunqualified individual is elected." *

    The final line in the story on thecandidates for vice president ofMSG should have read: "There's

    In the final paragraph of "TheEditor" column, explaining oureditorial policy concerning jendorsements, the opening sentence should have read: "I t is notalways in the best interest of thestudent body to do such a thing,but in this case.15."

    however...gt'Unless we get -250 orders, wewon't be able to do a book," Hillemphasized. ? |Although the college and MSGboth have pledged $1,500 each, atleast 250 copies will have to besold to cover the cost ofpublication. | IIt was incorrectly reported inlast week's Merciad that MSG, atits October 5 meeting, agreed tomake up any deficit. I"If there is a small loss at theend of the year and we have thefunds to cover it, we will," saidMSG President George Venuto ina clarifying statement. But we'renot going to make any commitments yet."MSG on Kennedy's adviceruled out the possibility ofpatrons, but: is consideringsending letters to parents toadvertise the book. jBecause^ of the late start,Praeterita will be a fall bookmailed directly to seniors fromthe factory, and distributed tounderclassmen in the fall. Anadvantage of such a schedule isthat, for the first time, Praeteritawill contain activities rightthrough spring j ; of the 1977-78academic year. |There are plans for a hardbound cover! designed by aMercyhurst student, along withat least four color pages.Mark Spencer, a sophomorebiology major, has been chosenyearbook photographer and willwork with two came ras and filmsupplied by Walsworth. Spencerwill:be available to take seniorpictures, as will be Walsworth,which will take formats at itsdowntown studios. >The priee of Praeterita * willagain be $10 per copy. Because ofpast problems it has not beendecided * whether installmentpayments will be accepted.The number of books orderedwill depend on the number ofinitial paym ents. If a person doesnot make his later payment, thebook will not be sold.i "It's up to Kennedy," Hill said."We (the staff) would like to havean installment plan." mHill is anxious to see theyearbook become a success,despite the early difficulties, andencourages anyone interested inworking on. it to contact him.

    ^W p u t s i d e inel5 The news of the week was grim, the outlook bleak. A real downer.So, besieged a s we are on all fronts, "Outside Line" plunges intothe gory details. j -TO BORROW from the biblical, the world was beset by wars andrumors of wars. The ones in Washington were the psychologicaland political kind,;K- President Jimmy Carter battled Congressspecifically, theSenatefor effective control of the government. Th e battlegroundswere the Panama Canal treaty, arms limitation talks, Mideastpeace proposals and domestic energy policy.iSince the fall of Nixon presidency the power of the .executivebranch has steadily declined in relation to that of the legislativeand judicial. Mr. Carter , despite a professed "vision of the future"and (formerly) unprecedented propular support to back it up, hasbeen frustrated in his attempts to move bills through Congress.

    It w as cold enough to snow butthe spirit of the Mercyhurst"Super Sunday" team neverfroze, despite a hard loss whichplaced the squad -sixth in theoverall standings.Some 26 students and facultygot together last Sunday, October16 to compete against five otherteams in a water balloon relay,tug-of-war, an obstacle courseand push ballall for the benefitof the WRIE-radio Children'sChristmas Fund. fI The event, which Jwas sponsored by the Gannon CollegeArmy ROTC, raised over $300It was held at Erie Stadiumdowntown.I Joining J Mercyhurst in thecompetition were$ Gannon,Edinboro State and Behrendcolleges, the Erie units of theNational f Guard and Army

    Reserve. A member of the WRIEbroadcasting staff 5; served ascaptain of each.? . * S The teams for the first threeevents consisted of 10 playersfrom each group. Scoring rangedfrom 10 points for first place toone point for last. * |The Mercyhurst team got off toa good start in the relay, finishingthird -[behind >Behrend (theeventual winner of the 'overallcompetition) and Edinboro. TheLakers earned five points in theopening event'but never againscored as wellj k S

    The obstacle course frustratedth e team members for 13 minutesand brought in only a single point,despite the valiant effort of AlLanczak, i who temporari lydislocated his shoulder whilediving for the low crawl, mThe shoulder later eased back

    into place and Lanczak was notseriously hurt. He finished therest of the competition. tIn the semi-finals of the tug-of-war, Mercyhurst held its ownagainst the well-organized pull ofBehrend, and at o n e point held anadvantage. But the overallstrength of Behrend proved toomuch for the Lakers; WRIE'sMike Murphy was the last mandragged across the, center line.The push ball contest saw theentire team in an effort to musclea'large ball over the goal line.Again Mercyhurst was beaten inthe semi-finals by Behrend, 1-0,and earned one point.In the final standings theBehrend team won the "SuperSunday" competition,; with 30points. Following in order wereEdinboro, the < National Guard,Army Reserve, | Gannon, andMercyhurst.

He wouldcome to the leaf and admire itsbeautiful green color and almostperfectly shaped points. Hewould w atch the sun hit the leafand think of all the chemicalreactions which were happeningand wonder at how a little leafcould be so powerful.| When the rain would fall hewould watch it bead u p o n the leafand slowly roll to the tip and headfor the ground.The biologist enjoyed the leafand the leaf would hold its bodystrong and shine brightly. Soon the sun started to g o downearlier in the day and the windsbrought a chill to the air. The leafstarted to close down shop anddisplay its fall coat. p ,;,. The biologist began to loseinterest in the leaf, for it was

    Fuss i ffitdying and he had no real interestin dying things.But the leaf continued to turnyellow, orange and red.*Finally, the autumn windscaught the leaf as a sail and sentit into flight. With a l l gentleness itfell to the ground and lay therequietly.Soon it was gathered togetherwith other leaves into a big pile.Disposal would be soon and theleaf sighed at the thoughtsv Butsuddenly, with all the furyof the wind, the leaf was turned,rolled and smashed against h isfriends. Again and again camethis bombardment and the leafbegan to break into many pieces.^\nd off in the distance he couldhear the sounds? of laughlerTduTareirs laughter^ie was sure.He held his body strong andtried to show his colors brightly.The question is: Who enjoyedthe leaf more? **#

    On iFriday, Octoberelection for the officepresident was h eld. The office ofvice president is an importantposition held J in this tor in j- anydemocratic system.I This year's election was well-advertised through posters,speeches, po litical articles in TheMerciad and pother modes ofcommunication. T h e election washeld this year, as in previousyears, in the main lobby of ZurnHall, making access to the pollsconvenient.Although there are no | validreasons for the low percentage ofvotes, the turnout was extremelypoor. Out of approximately 1500students, only 35 5 managed to getout and vote. ; As close as theelection was, two votes j could

    have made a difference. ? .iWith three fine candidateswilling to help?the Mercyhurstcommunity, the student bodyshould have taken advantage ofits o pportun ity! to voice itsopinions. JThe students ?have manycomplaints, but fail to get involved in their government. Forexample: Approximately 40 percent of the student body voted inlast year's election; however,only about 24 per "cent voted inthis year's election. Is this anindication off future Mercy hurstelections? Apparently it is. jeHere are some of the reasonswe think voter apathy is so high

    at Mercyhurst:1) The students here I reallydon't know the function of thestudent government, and2) >,the students lose contactwith their representatives oncethe elections are over.Here i s o n e idea w e think wouldhelp the voter turnout in the nextelection. In/the flyer, "ThisWeek, "the_ student governmentshould publicize its activities andaccomplishments. We feel thatthe students here should be informed of the activities of theirgovernment. IAny helpful suggestions will beappreciated. 11111Signed, '4the members offP.O.S.O.M.T he purpose ofP.O.S.O.M. is to

    Mercyhurst community for wildpartying. The senior class' hasbeen valiantly trying to preservethe Tuesday night, Rick &Barry's tradition By sucking upthe suds at all costs. \-*fAs a result, head inflation is atan all-time high. Bromo Seltzer,Bayer aspirin and references toalcohol poisoning are becoming acommon sight as Wednesdaymorning blues become moreprevalent, f jy k pHThe heaviest casualties havebeen in the junior class.jwhich,owing to inexperience, justcannot overcome the dreadedWednesday imorning hangover.The freshman class has beenrelatively untouched by thesyndrome and have once againestablished themselves as agroup to be contended with.Ralph, thejpinball vender,reports a substantial loss* ofrevenue. He says it is becausefewer patrons are testing theirskillsf on >Wednesdays: Thoseclasses keep getting in the way.Ragu, | the pizza maker, f isexploiting the phenomenon bybaking reheatable pizzas. %I "You -justa buy ita Tuesdaynight, anna you finish ita onnaWednesday fora breakfast," heexplains. IAnheuser-Busch, the maker ofBudweiser beer, has reported analarming i drop'in the consumption level of northwestPennsylvania and is negotiatinga long-term agreement to bolstersales by reinstating Tuesday asparty night at the Hurst. t|Professors are J reeling underthe surge of extra work that hasbeen dropped on ? them. Theworkload is so heavy that manyhave been seen lobbying inWashington, D.C.. -to makeWednesday classes il le ga l.^| We think it is obvious that theeconomy of the nation cannotstand the impact of Mercyhurst'sWednesday classes. It is anunnecessary economic hardshipon Rick & Barry's and anunrealistic burden on pinballvendors.S o, we hope you will vote "no "to Wednesday classes for Mercyhurst students (lever 2001 B) onNovember 3. > Take a stand. Don't lettradition go down the tubeskeep it flowing over the rocks.

    I expected more from Ann-Margret. She was a guest on theJohnny Carson Show about a yearago.: On the show, she saidsomething to the effect that shewas tired of being a sex symbol,much to the delight of women'slib, and that she would neverappear in a film th at depicted heras such anymore. Well, that isn'tho w it appears in the film J osephAndrews.In Joseph Andrews, Ann-Margret plays a role of a wealthywoman, Lady Booby, who ismarried to royalty. The name fitsthe character . perfectly I if youknow what I mean.Lady Booby tries to seduce herhouseboy Joseph Andrews, afterher husband drowns, but h e won'thave any. Instead, he finds the.young housegirl Fanny, more histype and he plans to marry her.But Lady Booby is furious andtries to separate them. This is the main ideathroughout the film. Lady Boobyis trying to snare Joseph andJoseph is in love with Fanny.What n o o n e knows though is thateveryone may be related to eachother. I ^ ?H Thatds, Joseph Andrews * is a

    B y Dar lene Keith |cheap, badly organized film thatis offending to the audience andalso} offending to j>readers whohave marvelled at the ingeniousskills of William Shakespeare.Y o u s e e , I think that thisfilm s atake-off version off; the play,Oedipus Rex.For you readers who aren'tacquainted with Oedipus Rex, itis a play about a son w ho marrieshis mother and isn't aware of thefact because he was given awayby his parents when he {was ababy. The same holds true forJoseph. ? I . ?He isI the illegitimate son ofLady Booby, and when he was ababy he was stolen by a gypsy.Therefore, we have another sonwho may marry his own mother.This film takes place back inthe 14 t h or 15 century. The makeup and costumes are all entirelyvulgar and in poor taste. Eventhe pink and white wigs lookedtotally unrealistic.While watching this movie, Ihad no urge to involve myself inthe plot or any wish to.

    beds, and w ading in pools. In myopinion, her role could have beenthat of a prop, not an actress.As for the actor who playedJoseph, h e w a s partially talented.H e had numerous scenes where Icould really get involved becausehis acting was really good. Hislook of innocence was one of thepluses of the 'film; and Hhereweren't many.The actress who played thecharacter Fanny was believablealso. Like Joseph, Fanny's look ofinnocenceworked well. From he rcherubic face to her golden hair,she resembled what angels ar esupposed to look like. I think if itwasn't for he r or the innocence ofJoseph, the film would be layingon the cutting room floor now.| But please; don't let myopinions influence you in theleast. If yo u have done a bad deedor know of someone else w ho hasdone o n e , please, send him to see

    this film. I think he will learn hislesson. If he doesn't, give himanother dose. Make him see thefilm twice.?^ ''. "lk S

The Lakers appliedpressure to the Knights the entiretime and finally cam e away witha 2-0 victory in overtime.The field was mostly mud andthroughout the regulation contestthe defenses of both Mercyhurstand Gannon? prevailed. DougClark, i coming off an injury,played an important part in thevictory as he recorded the firstgoal with 2:50 gone in the firstovertime period. Gary Weber gotan assist.
