Evening Divisionadds courses by Gene Hutter
Dr. Saul and Gene Hutter review papers concerning the EveningDivision.
The Evening Division of Cabrini College announced that 186 students are being enriched by 48 courses. Under the direction of Dr. Frank Saul, the Evening Division is striving to integrate itself with the day school. The result of this endeavor is evident by the number of day students enrolled in the evening school. Women usually take advantage of the opportunities in continuig education. This is evident by the number of women enrolled in the evening program at Cabrini. But, there is definitely an increase in the male students who are utilizing the educational resources of Cabrini.
Senior citizens are taking advantage of the Evening Division's policy of admitting senior citizens to classes free of charge on an audit basis. New courses have beena dded to the evening division along with the standard Iiberal arts. Gerontology directs a student in the care of the elderly. World-wide attitudes toward the elderly are presented along with information concerning health care systems in the U.S. and abroad. What about the nutritional needs of the aged and sexuality and aged? How can the elderly prepare themselves psychologically for death? These and many other topics are covered in gerontology.

by Sue O'Hagan A consultant trom the Academy for Educational Development has recently offered his expertise to Cabrini College. His special concentration here has been with the Admissions Office. Mr. Rexford G. Moon, Jr. is senior vice president and director of studies for the Ac.ademy - "a non-profit, tax exempt organization established to stimulate, develop, coordinate, plan and improve programs in education and communication." He has been working at Cabrini for 12 days over a three-month period. Mr. Moon, a former director of the College Scholarship Service of the College Entrance Examination Board, serves as a consultant to colleges, universities, foundations, government
agencies and public and private school systems. He is also a member of the Governor's Committee of Scholastic Achievement in New York. Mr. Moon's indepth background in admissions work has allowed him to closely ally himself with the Admissions Office. During his intermittant visits over the past three months Mr. Moon has evaluated the operation, organizational facilities, and management arrangements of the Admissions Office. His aim was to introduce new or improved methods of increasing enrollment. More specifically though, Mr. Moon tried to show how student recruitment is everybody's business. It is the main objective of the
Admissions Office to arouse interest in Cabrini College and to ¡recruit students to share in the Cabrini College learning experience. In Mr. Moon's estimation this may be well and good, but it is not enough. Everybody should be involved in boosting those enrollment records. Mr. Moon believes that tying in Public Relations, the Master Planning Committee and the faculty as a whole in support of Cabrini's Admission program is a giant step in the right direction. As part of this proposal all public relations publications were reviewed. Recommendations were made concerning future advertising ventures, new catalogue techniques, plans for department (continued on p. 3)

Specialhonors for two women by Sue O'Hagan Two friends of Cabrini College were recently honored for their long-standing support of the college. During the winter convocation program, Thursday, Feb. 10 at 1 p.m. in the Mansion, Mrs. Barbara Henkels, a recently retired member of the Cabrini College Board of Trustees, was presented with an engraved plate commemorating her six years as a board member . Mrs. Henkels became a trustee in January 1971. She was the first laywoman every so named. Throughout her two terms of service, Mrs. Henkels participated in various board activities. She served as secretary from 1972-74, and as vice chariman from 1974-1976. Mrs. Hen kels also served on several other committees pertaining to Cabrini's development and progress. Miss Anna Bruckmann has also been an avid supporter of Cabrini College. The Bruckmann Memorial Chapel and Bruckmann Chemistry Laboratory bear her family name. In the past, Miss Bruckmann's generosity has helped to provide scholarships for Cabrini students. This year, in celebration of Cabrini's twentieth anniversary, the college presented these scholarships in her name. This year's rec1p1ents are: Margaret Mary Cain, Raymond C. Crew, Claire R. DeMaria, Diane Marie DiJiosia, Donna M. Duquette, Jill M. Giles, Marie D. Johnson , Kathleen M. Kelly, Ann G. McConaughy, Maryanne T. McDevitt, Rita Maffei, Carla M. Mark, Marion Ann Moore Burns, Elizabeth C. Mulhern, Theresa H. Nardone, Maria A. Santoro and Kay Sherman. Sophomores Dorinda Russell and Theresa Signorini shared the honor of receiving the 1976-1977 Christian R. and Mary F. Lindback Foundation Scholarship. Fran MacDonald was announced by Mrs. Angela Zager, president of Cabrini's Alumni Association as the senior chosen by other class members to receive the Mother Ursula Award at graduation in May. Jeanne Brugger, president of the Medical College of Pennsylvania, spoke on "General Education and Applicability of the Liberal Arts in Today's World."
Group tackles social issues by Gene Hutter Farm Workers, Women Priests, World Hunger: these are topics of social concern which will be presented by Awareness in the next few months. Awareness, moderated by Ms. Suzanne Toton of the Religion Department, is an outreach of Cabrini College organized to bring to the campus and surrounding communities insight into the political and social needs and concerns of contemporary society. The Farm Workers Workshop;entitled "The Slaves We Rent," will be presented the afternoon of Feb. 22. The workshop will present a film dealing with farm workers followed by discusi;ion of issues regarding child labor laws, women in farm labor, social benefits of farm laborers and use of pesticides. Ms. Toton hoped various departments of the college would take a part, whereby designing the
Frolic! by Cindi DeRitis The February Frolic Festival is a big party for the entire college community. The importance of this festival is to get the students, faculty and friends together for a fun evening. The idea originated from faculty members. This event will take place on Friday, Feb. 25, beginning at 8 p.m. until midnight in the Mansion. Admission is $2.50 per person. The evening will include a number of faculty members unveiling their "Hidden • Talents" in the entertainment field. Also a band featuring singer and guitar player Harriet Faye will perform along with the male members of the group. The setting for the festival will be a French Street Scene. Alone with entertainment, refreshments will be served. They will include wine, cheese and salami, followed by coffee and danish. Faculty members on the Frolic Festival committee include the following: Dr. Sharon Schwarze, chairperson, Miss Dianne Kerr, advisor, Ms. Kathy Daley, Ms. Suzanne Toton, Mrs. Muriel Clauser, Mrs. Irene Rachat, Mr. Gerald Satlow, Dr. Carter Craigie and student Mike Walczak. Students will also be working with the faculty on the various committees. The Frolic committee expects to have a big crowd and encourages everyone to come.
workshop to deal with sociological, psychological and biological concerns. "The farm workers are a people in bondage, but we don't see or realize it," said Ms. Toton. "We think that there are no more slaves, but if we consider the health, wages and living conditions of the farm workers, then we see that slavery does still exist." In March, Sr. Mary Boys, a Roman Catholic nun, will speak on the issue of women priests.in a talk entitled, "Why I (a woman) Want to be a Catholic Priest." Ms. Toton believes this to be "an important issue for someone, as Sr. Boys who has a call to the Roman Catholic priesthood, especially since a recent statement by Pope Paul VI has been issued against women priests in the Catholic Church." In conjunction with the issue of women priests in the Church, Ms. Toton plans to bring to her class (Women in Religion & Society) a woman deacon of the Lutheran Church, a woman minister of the United Church of Christ and a woman priest of the Episcopal Church. In April, there will be a World Hunger Symposium in conjunction with Bread for the World. Bread for the World is a Christian movement in the U.S.A. encouraging people to contact the President and Congress to bring action that would implement the right to food and involve U.S. participation in a world food reserve program. Plans are to organize a joint effort of area schools to make known to campuses the concern for world hunger.
Studentreturnsas RN by Cindi DeRitis Tara Maxwell, R.N., is a new face added to the Health Services at Cabrini this semester. She is from Long Island, N.Y. She attended Cabrini College from 1970 through 1972. She then went to St. Clare's School of Nursing in New York City. Upon her graduation from there, she worked for a year at Nassau Hospital in infection c~trol. She is a full-time student working for a bachelor of science degree in Biology. She is also a resident assistant at Woodcrest. Miss Maxwell commented, "It's nice to be back here."

brochures and other literature. The spirit of the message, design, and distribution were among the important points. The faculty was brought into the picture at a meeting where Mr. Moon highlighted the role of the faculty in recruiting students. The faculty was asked to help in the admissions process whenever possible. Department chairpersons contacted their counterparts in area community and private two-year colleges to articulate the process necessary for students contemplating a transfer to Cabrini. Faculty members were urged to talk with any and all inquiring students regardless of major interest. School visits were advised if feasible. Mr. Moon's program set in motion arrangements for the continual training of professional and volunteer personnel in the admissions. Shelly Marra and Carol Scarcelle were given mm1 refresher courses as part of an effort to improve their effectiveness as admissions counselors. Tom Nerney '77 and Sal Urbano '78 are newcomers to the Admissions Office.
Mr. Moon trained both Tom and Sal in various admission counseling procedures which qualified them for on-the-road counseling work. During the Christmas holidays Tom and Sal travelled to area Pennsylvania and New Jersey high schools where they as students could relate the Cabrini College experience to prospective students. They were particularly intersted in giving a "guy's point of view" to prospective male students. Another point of Mr. Moon's proposal was that of tying in the Financial Aid Office workings more closely with the present recruitment programs. Too often acceptance letters arrive months in advance of any financial information. A qualified student hesitates to enroll at Cabrini merely because of financial aid uncertainty. A new time schedule has subsequently been devised coordinating the rolling admissions policy with financial aid award announcement_ Now, when a student is accepted to Cabrini his/her financial records have already been reviewed and notice of financial aid award is simultaneously made. Close follow-up by the Admissions
Committee aims to be viable campus force by Lisa Sherwood The Theater Development Committee, a part of the Master Planning Committee, is striving for the total development of our college community. Made up of students, alumni, faculty and administration, its main objectives are to improve the theater's facilities, foster community college relations, and become a viable force on campus. This committee is currently displaying various articles from the Jablonski collection which includes artifacts of ethnic origin collected on the Jablonski's numerous trips. The Theater Development Committee will hold an auction on April 16. The morning will consist of a preview of articles to be auctioned and booths selling other articles at fixed prices. The actual auction will be held in the afternoon_ AIi proceeds will go to the theater development. Volunteers will be needed to make this event a success _ f -nteirestedi. please contact Drr_Feighan_
staff is then made to see whether or not ¡ the student plans to accept the offer. Other recommendations offered by Mr. Moon !include phonathons, new poster designs and additional advertising in local high school and community college newspapers. Basically what the phonathon entails is an intense -community effort in calling interested students and providing them with additional information about the college. Included in the phonathons are the Admissions staff, faculty members, alumni, Kappa Sigma Omega members and volunteer students. Each takes a list of students, preferably in his/her community, and keeps a running tally of the students' responses. These are then reported to the Admissions Office for further follow-up. Admissions Director Estelle T. Oristaglio was "pleased to have the services of Mr. Moon in evaluating the merits of the past and sharing his expertise for future recruitment endeavors." Although it is relatively early to see the fruits of Mr. Moon's work Mrs. Oristaglio calls his visit "professionally as well as personally beneficially." As a final wrap-up of his stay at Cabrini Mr. Moon will report his findings and proposals to Sr. Mary Louise Sullivan, MSC. He will also make a presentation to the Board of Trustees at a future meeting. {cont. from p. 1)

The Real Estate courses are designed to meet the needs of persons preparing for the Pa. Real Estate Examination. Contracts, leases, assessments, brokerage, management, property valuation and other related topics help to prepare an individual for the real estate profession. In conjunction with the Evening Division, a workshop in children's theater will be conducted. Children aged 5 thourgh 12 will be given an overview of the production and performances of a fully produced children's theater play. This will include a full performance of the finished play. "Sr. Julia and I are hoping to generate a more clearly defined relationship between the day college and the evening and summer division offerings," explained Dr. Saul. "At the same time, the place of the College within the larger community may be enhanced through new programs which respond to social needs.
Energy Crisis Act Now
by Fran MacDonald
For the third time in about four years, the United States is faced with a severe shortage of an essential commodity. Gasoline and sugar started the list, bringing with them high prices, long lines, hoarding and general desperation. Now natural gas has joined the list bring.ing effects even more serious than before schools and businesses have · been closed, thousands are unemployed. The eastern part of the nation is at a virtual standstill. Although personally, I was not seriously affected, an assignment for the Main Line Times, where I am an intern, caused me to begin to think seriously about the two sides of this crisis. Some believe that the crisis is real, that the United States is experiencing a severe gas shortage. Others, however, rate the crisis as another ploy of big business: an easy way to get the government to lift price controls so they can make more money. Either way, the situation has frightening consequences. What if the crisis is real, and the United States is running out of gas? Where will we be in five or ten years? Probably reverting back to candles, kerosene lanterns (if kerosene can still be found) and fireplaces. This is not a happy prospect for an economy
Cryptic
based on industry and commerce. And, what if the crisis is simply the plot· of big business intersted in greater profit? This, in my opinion, is a more serious issue. It is even more frightening to think that big business can control our livelihood and virtually our lives. What sort of people would force hospitals, schools and businesses to close so that they can have more? Has the American epic of capitalism reached the point of no return? The only hope that we have for the future is ourselves. Idealistic as it may sound, it is time for the public to become aware of the situation and act accordingly. How many Americans are even aware of the seriousness of the crisis, let alone what they· should be doing to act against it? For the first time in ysars, there is a new political party in power and the President is backed by a Congress composed primarily of members of the same party. Citizens must begin not to petition the government either for stronger conservation measures or for stricter controls of big business. Either way, it can't hurt. And I'm beginning to think that we may be running out of time.

How to create sparetime by Maureen Larkin It's been almost a month now that we've been back in school. Yes, a whole ~ onth has gone by. Yet, doesn't it seem like our Christmas vacation was over just a few days ago? Do you recall the last week of classes when everyone was making plans for their Christmas vacation? Do you remember the plans you made? How many of those things you planned to do were actually done? Now that you think about it, not many I bet. What were some of your reasons for not doing them? Was lack of time 'one of your excuses? If so, it's not too reasonable an excuse. After all, we. did have off almost a whole month. How about lack of money? Now that's an acceptable reason. After all, we can't expect our . work-study money to last forever. Or can you put the blame on yourself because day after day would pass and you'd say to yourself, I'II do it tomorrow. Tomorrow after tomorrow passed until they added up into weeks and by the time you realized what you had done, it was too late to do anything about it. That is called the art of procrastination. Are you going to allow the same thing to occur over this semester? I realize this talent is very easily acquired, either knowingly or unknowingly. Yet, wouldn't it be much easier to do things that have to get done immediately or at least when you have the spare time? If you do the work that has to get done during your extra or free time, then it is done and you don't have to worry about it, whatever it may be, one hour before it's due. By doing things right away, instead of putting them off, maybe you'll have some extra time to do all of the things you had planned to do over the Christmas vacation and didn't. Time to end. I have to write my Christmas cards!

Long-johns and Jack Frost:
How longwill it last?¡ by Steve Pedano Most of the romance has gone out of winter for a good hunk of the population. We are shivering through the worst winter in a hundred years and we are all truly aware of what it means to be cold. ¡ The most widely asked question is wijether or not there is a critical shortage of' natural gas. Some people truly believe thht there is and are mindful of. warnings in ¡ the past. It is most interesting, however, to listen to the people who feel that this shortage is no more than a twisting of the consumers' arm in order to hike prices. It is widely believed that the natural gas suppliers are taking advantage of the unusually low temperatures and that the previous warnings were based on possibilities that we may suffer a winter like this sooner or later. This idea isn't so outrageous as some might contest, but it would be more realistic to admit that we are consuming great amounts of our natural resources at a much greater rate than they can be replenished. Fact or fiction, we are all over the proverbial barrel. We have all learned a few valuable lessons in dealing with the elements. I've been enlightened to a number of extravagant ways to keep warm. Some of us are wrapping up in plastic bags on top of long-johns on top of who knows what.
All of this is underneath layers of outer clothing that gives you the feeling of being inside some kind of stuffed animal. What some of us don't realize is that what you put inside of you is as important as what you hang on the outside. Good nutrition and high energy foods {candy for instance) are important to keep your furnace from dying out on you. Some of us prefer the ascot and alcohol approach; whatever gets you through the night! Commuters have a rough time at it. Getting out of bed on these cold mornings has been an experience that most of us will remember for along time. We are also familiar with that heartbreaking sputter, gasp, choke of trying to get your car started in temperatures that would test the best brand of anti-freeze. Hence, it has been a prosperous winter for the towing business. It has also been a painful reminder of our vulnerability to the elements, as well as our dependence on those things that break down when we need them most. Well, troops, it seems as though we are doing well in spite of it all. Not everyone has been so lucky. In many cases, people have had to stay put for the duration because of ill health and conditions that would be aggravated by the cold and
dampness. Persons with heart, respiratory and bone ailments have found it painful and often dangerous to leave their homes. Many have suffered through minor and major cases of frost bite. A good majority of thermostats have been turned down to either the prescribed setting or somewhere just above. Even those who are skeptical of our many shortages and crises have complied somewhat to the requests and orders that natural gas consumption be cut to a minimum. Cabrini has complied and there have been a few complaints that the dorms have been unbearable to sleep in. There have also been a few complaints that classrooms have been too hot. We'll adjust. We have to. This may just be a taste of what is in store for future winters. It is both amazing and embarrassing to think that in some parts of the world, this is considered a mild dose. Some may even be envious of our occasional "heat waves" that force temperatures up to the thirties and even the balmy forties . With people out of work, teeth chattering and falling on your buns, we can only look to the lighter side - the crime rate in the northeast has dropped considerably, and that's about it!
Counseling Center honors Fr. Rudy by Lorraine Matteo Beginning in the fall of 1977 a new facility for Cabrini students will be located in Council Hall. It is the Rudy Rooymans Counseling Center. The center will be open to faculty and alumni as well as to the students. The Counseling Center is being developed in order to supply students with information concerning occupations, careers, and referrals. The main goal of the center is to have the student know himself better. The Counseling Center would like to assist students in building a "flexible valve" for their futures. In this way, students will have many options to consider when planning for the future.
Father Tom Piechocinski, Cabrini's chaplain, has had a great deal of counseling work in his background. He would like his role at Cabrini to be more than just the "happy priest on campus." Father Tom will be available to study occupations, review inventory test scores, and to discuss personal plans. The students should feel that there is someone available to talk to about careers, special interests or general topics. Students are also guaranteed that there will be no betrayals of confidence. Father Tom is hoping that students will become so familiar with the center that they will spark its use. In an effort to
provide students with the type of facility they feel will be most beneficial, Mr. Anthony Tomasco, Maria Carusi, Brian Gould, and Bernadette McCabe have been conducting student surveys. The center hopes to provide a Media Center where films on occupations could be viewed. The center has also developed an Alumni Resource File. Alumni members have volunteered to act as resource people for students . Students interested in making use of this file should contact Father Tom. Father Tom suggests, prior to graduation, every senior should make an attempt to seek information from a competent source.

Grace Hall Time will tell by Ron Katkocin
Triogetinternship by HaroldWilson Cabrini College has a unique program for its graduating seniors that provides on-the-job experience. It is the Internship program that is opened to all qualified seniors. This year Ray Crew, Fran MacDonald and Michael Walczak were chosen as the seniors to participate in the program. Ray's and Michael's internship is with WPVI-TV in Philadelphia. Their general duties at WPV I are news writing, answering telephones, and observation of the television operation. However, they also perform other tasks that go along with getting the news on the air. Ray says that "it's a tremendous opportunity and it's the prime reason I came to Cabrini. It provides students with professional experience and professional contacts." On the other hand, Fran MacDonald works as a reported with the Main Line Times, a weekly newspaper in Ardmore. Fran's first assignment was to call businesses in the main line area and' to ask what they were doing to help the energy crisis. This is Fran's third week of her internship. She really enjoys working with the staff of the Main Line Times. Fran says that "they are friendly and loose. They're always willing to help."
The recent migration of the faculty from Sacred Heart Hall to Grace Hall has left varying opinions on both teachers and students alike. For the most part, however, the teachers seem to enjoy their new residence. When asked to comment on the move, Dr. Jolyon Girard had this to say: "Overali 1t is good. There are two major benefits. First, it makes more facilities available in Sacred Heart for the students, and second, it gives the faculty more privacy and room. One disadvantage is that it takes the faculty further from the students. Before the students could have just had a casual talk - now they have to think about it. But overall, the benefits outweigh the problems." Mr. Carter Craigie is a little more critical in his response. "I miss the contact with the students. Only the students who really need counselling will make the effort to come over. I miss the friendly faces dropping by to say hello." However, it seems as if the teachers enjoy the changeover. Their feelings may be summed up in the words of a faculty member who wishes to remain anonymous. "It'll take dynamite to get us out of here!" The "big move" has also brought about varied remarks from the student body. Colleen O'Brian '80, likes the idea of Cabrini expansion. "I think that they've really fixed up Grace Hall. It looks moreprofessional." Donna Castellini '80, also likes the switch. "Now we can use the downstairs for activities. They should put in some pool tables and other recreational facilities," says Donna.
Yvonne Riley '78, agrees with Donna. "I suppose it's good because it leaves the bottom of the academic complex for student activities." Janice Byrne '78, calls the move "practical." On the other side of the coin there are those students who are dissatisfied with the move . Says Vivian Mayol ¡'77: "It's a terrible mistake. I wouldn't mind going over there for a club or for fun, but if you want to see a teacher after class I prefer that they are close by. I also think the mail boxes should be in the Sacred Heart Building. The best way I can communicate with the teachers is through the mail boxes because I'm student-teaching." When asked how she felt about the move, Leslie Hickman quickly fired back a number of her own questions. "Who is going to pay for it? How much will tuition increase to pay for the paneling, rugs, new equipment and moving costs?" Celeste Hope '79 followed up on Leslie's argument by asking: "Why did they sell all the furniture? Now they have to re-decorate and our tuition will go up." Jim Sugden '79 is quite definitive in his feelings concerning the situation. "Grace Hall has always been disconnected from the school. It was easier to drop in on a teacher in Sacred Heart. Now you have to plan it; you aren't going to be just wandering around Grace Hall." So there you have it. The general consensus is nebulous. But in the words of Sharida Lynn Gillison '80 - "So far so good, but seeing is believing. Time will tell whether or not the move was good." Sharida is right - time will tell.

Beware Burger King!
Get variety at local restaurants by Beth Dunn Nineteen varieties ot hamburger! I've got to see it to believe it! And see it you will, if you pay a visit to H. A. Winston's on Lancaster Pike in Bryn Mawr. Winston's hamburgers are a meal in themselves and have names such as the Ardmore, the Bryn Mawr and the Cherry Hill. Each has a different topping. Philadelphia Magazine in its "Best and Worst" series named the Winston Burger with its topping of sauteed green peppers and mushrooms as the best hamburger in the area. Extra-large drinks are also featured in Winston's, which can be bought by the goblet or pitcher. A wide selection of beer and wine is offered. Two other specialties of H.A . Winston 's which deserve recognition are the Rueben sandwich and the baked onion soup. The Rueben is a concoction of rye bread, corned beef, swiss cheese , sauerkraut and Russian dressing served with Winston's basted and oven-baked slices of potato . The onion soup is served in a large crock and covered with melted swiss cheese. The prices at Winston's are very reasonable and there is something for everyone on the menu. Located in the Rosemont Village on Lancaster Pike is another restaurant with inexpensive prices and good food. Gullifty 's, done in the decor of an Irish pub, also has a varied menu. The entrees range from spaghetti and meatballs to an enormous seafood platter with lobs ter, crabmeat, shrimp and scallops. Pizza and hamburgers are on the menu, as well as a Rueben and the baked onion soup. For dessert, you may choose cheesedake topped with fresh strawberries, chocolate mousse, or strawberry shortcake. Irish coffee is served also. Both Gullift y's and H.A. Winston's are open 7 days a week.

Skier turnstragedyto victory by Barbara Polomano
A. U.S. Number One champion skier . Wouldn 't we all love such a life of fame and excitement! Picture yourself! Reporters! Photographers! Thousands, maybe millions of fans! Autographs! Banquets in your honor! Trophies! Ribbons ! A paralyzed body! A paralyzed body? Yes. The last element hardly seems to fit the picture, but it is part of a girl's life. Jill Kilmont , ex-U.S. Champion skier. Although Jill' s exciting career resulted in a fatal ski accident leavi ng her wit h very few movable limbs, she refused to let the joy of life come to an end. The true story of Jill's Iife before, during, and after her ski career is depicted in Edward S. Seldman's latest film, "The Other Side of the Mountain." The first half of the film presented us with the exciting, seemingly carefree life of a champion skier. But tragedy strikes as Jill tries to win the biggest event of her life. All skiers must compete by weaving in and o ut of poles topped with orange flags as quickly as possibl e while skiing down the mountain. As Jill performs, she hits a pole. The flag hits her face. Jill loses all balance and control as the flag clings tightly to her face due to the onward rushing wind. Blinded by the flag, she heads for a cliff, unaware of the direction in which she is moving. Action is fact and viewers sit a nxiously on the edge of their seats awaiting Jill' s fate. The effect is dramatic filmed in slow motion.
as the fall is
From crystal white snow and sunny blue skies, Jill is transporteq to a gray hospital room, stra pped to a bed with tubes and bottles surrounding her. The story progresses, and Jill puts up a miraculous fight with unending courage. The rest of the movie is devoted to showing the hardships and frustrations Jill faces trying to put the pieces of her life back together. The film seems to shake a finger at the audience scolding, "Appreciate all you have today, for tomorrow you could lose it all." As Ji II struggles to learn a new way of life and to accept her life for what it is, a new character is introduced, someone who just seems to make all her strugging worthwhile - a new love for Jill. A touching love story follows, and then a surprise ending which I will decline to mention here. Marion Hassett as Jill Kilmont, and Beau Bridges as her boyfriend are terrific in their roles, and what's more, very believable performers. The acting is wonderful, the scenery breath-taking, the story touching and beautiful. It may not be your action packed "Charles Bronson " type film, but it IS good if you just want to relax, sit back and enjoy a good show, half adventurous to suit your aggressive side, and the other half a love story to please your sentimental side. All in all, I would judge it a movie worth seeing.

ThePlaymakers
Strongscorersleadteam
by Ron Katkocin In basketball, the point guard is the playmaker, in short, the one who runs the ball game. Cabrini is blessed with two such fine guards - Tony Cullen and Sally Ford. Both have been playing for three years and both are excellent at what they do. Tony has started on the men's varsity team his last two years. For these past two years he has been the mainstay of the Cavalier offense, not by scoring points, but by running the game and getting the ball to the "big men." Other defenses cringe at the sight of Tony's quick passes .1.nd his deft dribbling ability. Tony realizes his role on the team. When asked how it feels to control the game, Tony responded: "It gives you a sense that you know everything. It's like you're the general." Perhaps that is Tony's most important contribution to the team, his ability to remain calm when he knows everything depends on him. Sally Ford, Tony's counterpart, has been starting for the varsity women's team all three years she has been at Cabrini. Essentially her job is the same as Tony's, that is, to take over wntrol of the game. "Sometimes I'm a little nervous," says Sally, "because I know if I mess up then everybody else does too." But this alleged nervousness is not always apparent, since on the court Sally is a very intelligent and poised player. In general Sally thinks that there is not as much spectator spirit for the women's team as there is for the men's. However, she feels there is an abundance of spirit on the team.

Mike Walczak '77, the "Voice of the Cavaliers," has recently been joined by two -new "Voices": Joan Buonanno '78 and Ron Katkocin '80. Mike sees a need for assistance in announcing home basketball games due to the heavy schedule of home games this season. According to Mike, "the only real requirements for being an announcer are to know the game and to have an interest in annoucning." Joan and Ron have both played on basketball teams in the past. Joan became an announcer because
she
thought
"it
would
be
a good
experience in talking in front of a group of people"; Ron joined the announcing team "for experience and fun."

Cabrini men's basketball team holds a "satisfying" record so far this season as commented by coach, Dr. Jolyon Girard. In first semester play the Cavaliers surpassed Valley Forge Military Academy on opening night; were defeated by Phiiadelphia Community College; snatched a victory from Holy Family; and out-shot the team from Gwenydd-Mercy. After a forfeit by Eastern Christian, Cabrini was overpowered by Williamson 66-54 in their first game back from the semester break. Pulling together in their next game with Gwenydd-Mercy each of the Cavaliers was credited with scoring. Senior, Tom Nerney racked up 22 points followed by junior Kevin Deal with 21 points. Up against the tough defense and excellent dribbling of Pinebrook Junior College, the Cabrini squad came out on top of the sea-saw battle, 63-57. The turning point of the game came with 7 minutes remaining in play when a
Pinebrook goal tending call occurred. Center, Mike Robinson, forward, Nick Viggiano and guard, Tom Nerney were the high scorers for Cabrini who were helped by the aggressive rebounding of Kevin Deal and the consistent ball-handling of Tony Cullen. On February 1, the opposing Allentown team fell to the Cavaliers who dominated the boards on both offense and defense. Nerney and Robinson were hot in the first half contributing 39 points between them. The substitutes headed by Walt Williams turned it into a complete runaway in the second half of play. Then, the men's team lost a heart-breaking game with Alvernia on February 3. The Cavaliers did not manage to penetrate the Alvernia defense nor were they able to stop their strong offense that cha Iked up a 63-59 victory. The consistent high scorer Nerney once again took his toll of 20 points while teammate Robinson scored 19 points. Deal 'Nas the high rebounder for Cabrini .
Women in heavy season by Barbara McHugh
Cabrini College's women's basketball team started strong this semester with a heavy season ahead of them and they're hanging tough. It began on Dec. 13 at home against Holy Family College with a good, enthusiastic crowd present to back up the team. The Cabrini team pushed the score high and close in the last five minutes, but the good rebounding and strong outside shooting couldn't match that of Holy Family. The game was later counted as a forfeit because of team mismanagement on the part of Holy Family. The second attempt, against Gwynedd-Mercy College, took place on home court also. Ending in a three point loss for Cabrini, the score was tied up with five minutes and 30 seconds to go. Handler, Sally Ford and rebounder, Kathy Smith helped pour on the pressure. But Gwynedd gained the edge with a foul shot and the final score was 37 to 40. Cabrini slaughtered Pinebrook Junior College in a 66 to 18 victory. Starters Ford, McCabe,Taddie, Bedard and Smith
allowed Cabrini to take control of the score board after eight minutes with a score of 14 to nothing. Maureen De Leo's good ball handing and Kathy Shields' strong shooting wrapped up the game for Cabrini. Judy Guido's strong defensive playing and Bridget McLaughlin's quick moves added extra pressure against Pinebrook. The most recent attempts took place away from home against Textile College and Penn State University. The Cabrini team was up against some tough competition and they held up well under the pressure. In a 4 7 to 72 point loss against Textile, high scorers Kathy Smith, Annie Bedard and Kathy Sheilds pushed hard against the opposing team. McLaughlin, Ford and McCabe, along with various substitutes, helped Cabrini stay strong until the end. Sheilds, Bedard and Smith were again the high scorers in a 32 to 45 loss to Penn State. Ford and McCabe helped the score stay close with some good foul shooting. The team asks everyone's support in the upcoming games.
