New and more forcible student accounting system to be insti-tuted BY DETSY LYNCH

Starting with the 1979 Fall semester a new and more forcible student accounting system regarding the payment of tuition may be instituted. According to William Eichner, Cabrini College business manager, this system would mean that all bills must be paid upon pre- · sentation. A one week allowance period will be the only stipulation allowed. This will be made to allow students to make changes in their rosters. But after that first week any student who has not fully paid his bill will not be allowed to attend classes. As Eichner states, "Things should be pretty well tidied up after the first week." The need for a more stringent regulation of tuition payments can be attributed to a number of fac tors. First and foremost is the fact that under the present promissory note system a substantial part of

Pennsylvania, Beaver College, John Hopkins University and Michigan Institute of Technology . Before this agency was instituted, according to Eichner, the college made all kinds of allowances for these non-paying students. Cabrini made use of a Dunning Agency which would send out letters requesting payment but had no forcible way to enforce it. Since they weren't receiving any compensation for the collection of these bills there was no incentive "Outside of the student our most valuable asset is the cash." to collect the money. "The response under this system had colleges require that you pay right as the National Accounts System been minimal at best," Eichner terest charge takes up both time Incorporated agency, works on a said. and money which affects the over- away ."

-Eight st ·dents rewarded for service BY LISA SHERWOOD

This year's service and leadership awards, announced at Spring Convocation, are the outcome of a combination of ideas by several administrative offices of Cabrini College. Council of College Affairs, an advisory committee to the president, had considered a service and leadership society but had difficulties in defining the purpose of this society. Financial Aid and the Scholarship Committee, on the other hand, had begun to review the rules of eligibility for activities awards. Both ideas were presented to Sr. Sharon Morano, dean of students, and_after much discussi?n, i~ was decided that the resulting ideas were similar enough to combine. These new awards replace the

old activities awards but do not inelude athletic awards. The purpose of these awards is "to recognize outstanding and sustained contributions of nonacademic nature to the community." Activities are not limited to on-campus activities. To be eligible, a student must have attended Cabrini for one full year and accumulated 30 credits. He must also have a 2.5 cum. average and su~mit an application form. The application includes: describing services performed and the amount of time spent in these activities, a list of special skills required in the performance of these . services, positions of leadership assumed and the responsibilities attached, comments on the meaning and value -of these activities, _

and names of people who could serve as references. Money for these awards comes in the form of tuition remissions for the Spring term. They are not transferable and adjustments in the cash value may be made if the awardee is getting some other form of aid. This year's total is $1425. There are no cash figures available for last year's activity awards because the total included athletics. Final selections of awardees are made by CCA, Financial Aid, and the Scholarship Committee. Six to eight awards are usually given. This year's recipients are: Sal Barabuscio, Maria Carusi, Cindy Hammet, Ron .Katkocin, Detsy Lynch, Sue O'Hagan, MaryAnn Ribick and Dorinda Russell.

Admissions works to meet g·oals BY SHEILA DOUGHERTY

"The goal has been given to us and we are doing all we can to meet this goal," Estelle Oristaglio, director of admissions, said about Admission's goals for 1979_1980_

According to Oristaglio, the number of new freshman students for 1979-1980 is 191. There is a greater interest in residency than in commuti ng for the 191 new fres hman .

Guest colmnist discusses:

Food for thought BY MIKE GLACKEN

There has been mounting anger regarding the quantity and quality of the food served by Stouffer 's since semester star t. I am writing this to clarify some of the complaints, and to offer criticisms . · First, it must be acknowledged that pleasing the tastes of 200 residents is no small task. The students' backgrounds vary considerably. As such, institutional food must be reduced to the lowest common denominator . It is for this reason that institutional food falls prey to complaint. It will never be Mom 's. When Stouffer 's outbid SAGA, enthusiasm reigned . That enthusiasm was generally rewarded and justified. In the firs t weeks, the only substantial complaint was portion control. Portion control saves money for Stouffer 's. It also, however, saves food. A ten -minute observation of the amount of food wasted at the busboy 's stand will convince anyone of this fact. As the semester wore on , there seemed to be a gradual degradation in the quality and selection of the food offered. This trend has been accelerated this semester to the point that the food, at times, doesn't seem worthy of saving. The two sides of this issue can be described as " finicky " students and inedible or, at best , unappetizing , boring food. Both sides have merit. There are students on this campus who equate McDonald's with gourmet heaven but consider Stouffer's and botulism synonymous. The other side will only have to remember Panelrama pizza night, complete with french fry nails. Stomachs were in no danger. Teeth were. The pizza and fries were leftovers, I recall a three-night series of Swiss steak. If the Swiss had tasted this offering the last night they would have filed suit for defamation of character . The creme de la creme was the fish; two layers of breading kept from being one , by a slice of fish that would have had to have been measured in microns . Enough hyperbole . Anyone that knows me will forgive these exaggerations . It's just that I happen to live on food. I like to eat. Sorry ! As I've noted, any food service is an easy target ; there will be nights when the Wigwam will make more money that the Business Office . The main reason for writing this is to vent some, I feel , righteous anger but at least to offer some helpful suggestions . These are the following : To Stouffer's: It seems as though the venture into food service is an unprofitable venture . Such is life . Make sure next year 's bid accounts for spiraling food costs anp students who will not accept leftovers reheated to indistinguishability . Cutting corners is your prerogative. Breach of contract is not. To the Administration : Please schedule dinner earlier or classes later. The line at 5: 15 is ample testimony to this scheduling flaw and does nothing to enhance the relations between Stouffer's and the students . If the food costs must be reflected in a raise in tuition to acquire consistently decent food , so be it. To the Students: That tuition rise will be defrayed by less frequent visits by the Wayne Pizza gang, et. al. In conclusion, it might be noted that money seems to be the major problem here. One very obvious drain oil that money is the astounding number of outside students who eat for free . I think it's time to put an end to this. It goes without saying that recent bouts of vandalism in the cafeteria also detract froll) the financial picture. There is no reason why we cannot be served good food at reasonable prices. Let's work to accomplish it.

Cabrini first area college to sponsor Special Olympics BY KIM HA YES

Cabrini Coll!;!gewill be the first college in Pennsylvania to sponsor "Special Olympics . " This unprecedented event will be on Saturday, March 31. "Special Olympics" is a corporation created by the Joseph P. Kennedy Foundation which offers an opportunity for sports training and athletic competition to all ,·~ mentally handicapped citizens. Different schools competing against one another form special olympics teams . About 150mentally handicapped citizens, plus 50 chaperones will arrive at Cabrini to participate in Pennsylvania state events . The competitors come from either

special schools or schools with Security - parking cars, directing traffic. Schedaling of Events - distribute times and schedules . · Volunteen to help the Entire Organization - giving moral support to individual competitors . Special events - helping provide extra activity, such as arts and crafts, dance, puppetry, etc. The coordinators of this cim• petition "Would like to try to have volunteers strictly from Cabrini," Sulewski said . In coordination with the "Special Olympics " to be held on March 31, special events are being held every Saturday in the gym. From 12 noon Ull 4:30 p.m. Cabrini

students are invited to help train the special olympic students. Sulewski added, "At times I'm bored to death . Other kids complain they have no transportation to other communities. So we are bringing the community to the students ." The competitors are coming from schools throughout the state , although many will be from local schools . "Special Olympics" will present Cabrini in a very positive way to the outside community. Also, other colleges can look up to Cabrini for being a leader in this endeavor. Since Cabrini will be the first local school to sponsor the olympics, "Other colleges will be watching us to see how everything works out," said Sulewski .

Admission is free to the public. Intramurals will be held between Cabrini volunteers and "Special Olympics" participants from 2:30 p.m. till 3:30 p.m. An exhibition basketball game will be held from 3:45 till 5 with "Special Olympic" teams . "Volunteers are desperately needed," said Mike Sulewski, '81, special education, elementary education. Cabrini students are urged to volunteer for the following : Dlrecton - overseer of all activities . Regl1tration - registering teams giving times of event~. Medical - supplying medical assistance, if needed. Ho1pltallty - supplying ·general information, handling lost and found. Finance - handling budget for special olympics, donations, etc. Ceremonies - reading the special olympic's oath, welcoming participants. Awardl- presenting medals . Sports - coaching, managing . ·

In addition, every Thursday workshops are being held in the gym to familiarize Cabrini students with the special olympics . The workshops begin at 1: 15 p.m. The coordinators of the -workshops . will show movies, inform and train volunteers, ·and set up committees. · The positive benefiti that will be reaped by special olymp1cs coming to Cabrini are endless. Most of the mentally handicapped participants are poor. They have little, if any activity in their life. "Most of the students attend regular schools with special classes set aside for them.. They only associate with their own classmates. The special students have no real involvement with the school," Sulewski said . "Let me win, but ifl cannot win, let me be brave in the attempt," is the oath of the Special Olympic participants. Maureen Gabe, '81, special education, said, "The students don't care who wins. They gain self-confidence for themselves ." Sulewski added, "Most of these kids h_ave never been helped before . The attention is a thrill to them." According to Gabe, "Research done on these special students proves athletics is a major force in reaching them ." Cabrini students ' benefits are just as rewarding . For special education majors, this exposure cannot be equaled . "The freshmen especially will benefit because this will be their first experience with special students on campus," said Sulewski .

Mike Sulewski initiated Cabrini's involvement with the special olympics . He was a volunteer in 1977 and 1978. He worked as a sponsor and also in the administration end. He set up plans for involving Cabrini College with Joan Williams, chairperson of special olympics, Marple Township District . . The Council for Exceptional Children ( CEC) is incorporated into the special olympics, according to Sulewski . But he added, "We wanted the special olympics to be its own club." Sulewski is officially the college coordinator of the Cabrini Chapter for Pennsylvc\,tlia Special Olympics. "W~ have no official officers yet, but when we do, I would)ike to see the president run the club with my guidance." The main reasons for keeping special olympics sepa,rate from CEC were two-fold. "Under CEC, specia l olympics would not have had its own budget or have been covered by the special olympics insurance program. It would have just ·been a small segment of CEC," Sulewski said. "We will now be two clubs working closely together ," he added . President of CEC, Janet Cooper , '80, special egucation-elementary education , said, "CEC is very inuch interes ted ." She was in the dark , however, regarding plans already arranged . . The Cabrini College administration , special education departmen t

and athletic directors seem to be giving full support to the special olympics," said Sulewski. He added, "We have a 100% backing from the Student Government Association. On Monday evening, Feb. 26, SGA unanimously approved the Cabrini Chapter for Pennsylvania Special Olympics Club . "It went over fantastic . Members of SGA already offered to help ," said Sulewski. Cabrini hopes to advertise the Special Olympics on various TV stations, local community papers and radio stations. Financing the event will be handled in several ways . The committee will be approaching Cabrini College for funds. They are also seeking aid through patrons from businesses, personal donations from students, and assistance from other clubs on campus. "We have had no reply from the administration yet regarding money," Sulewski said . He added , "We need donations desperately ." The coordinators have already decided to sell Special Olympic TShirts on campus as part of their fund raising effort. The T-Shirts will be gold with blue lettering. Money is needed for uniforms, equipment , meals, transportation

and other necessities. "Now that we are officially ·a club, we will be sponsoring special olymp ic participants all year round," said Sulewski . The Special Olympics are held on several levels. There are international games held every four years. These olympics usually have about 3500 participants . This year there will be international spec ial olympics held at Brockport College, NY . There are national games held all year round. Competitors qualify through local area meets and come -from every state of the union ( about 130,000 competitors participate) . According to Gabe . "We can not lodge that many people, but we do have the ground. Possibly we could approach Eastern and Valley Forge to help provide lodging ." Basketball, indoor and out- . door soccer , floor ·hockey , bowling, volleyball and disc throwing are the sports which would be played. The Special Olympics Corporation has over 1,000,000 participants from 23 countries. There are about 15,000 events held each year .

HELPI I I Is there a nurse in the house? BY SHAWN STETSER

Three Cabrini College students are working as medical assistants on campus this semester. They are Al Iannucci, a junior business administration major , Denise Fucile, a sophomore nursing major , and Mike Glacken , a junior biology major . These students are responsible for the entire campus community during those times when Cabrini's nurse, Mary Mulligan, R.N., is not on campus. Basically this includes the time period from 3:30 p.m . to 8 a .m . during the week , and the entire weekend . One of the above stu dents is always on duty during these times to take care of any medical emergency that might arise . The minimum requirell\ents for this job are a knowledge of standard first aid and a cardio-pulmonary resusitation (CPR) certificate . But all of these students have other qualifications as well, primarily a "conscientious attitude" along with a "solid biology background," according to Mulligan.

Iann:ucci, although currently a business administration major specializing in health administration, entered Cabrini as a biology major . In addition to meeting the basic job requirements, he has worked as a volunteer in the Crozer-Chester Medical Center

during his school vacations. While there he has taken part in emergency room procedures, respiratory therapy and kidney dialysis . He began working as a medical assistant here in the beginning of his sophomore year. His future plan is to attend gradu-

Steve Hatley, "we have just gotten a winner for our classic Rolls Royce!!!" This is the pandemonium that has promoted WIZZARD 100, the new radio station that replaced the old WIBG. The station was giving away a $30,000Rolls Royce to anyone who was lucky enough to pick the right envelope. The Rolls stopped to give away money too, if it spotted their logo bumper sticker on your car. Gimmick you say? Well maybe you're right, but it sure worked and kept people tuned to the station, including this reporter, who was the lucky winner of $20.

Cool, calm, collected what's her secret? BY JEROME R. ZUREK, JR. As I reconstructed the robbery in my mind, it had occurred on the day we were moving, in the middle of November . It's no wonder that in the distraction of mo'{ing I didn't realize that the bank book hadn't been return ·ed to us in the mail. It wasn't until several weeks later that I realized that it was missing . We called the bank, and they easily determined that a forgery had occurred. Our account had been cleared out, but the bank assured us that they would reimburse us. The person who had forged Sue's signature on three withdrawals had been easy to catch. The bank, failing in all other precautions, at least had its automatic camera clicking every few seconds and got a dozen gopd pictures of her in her three attempts . An alert detective identified her as a member or a ring of narcotics users in the area . And so here she was , just after New Year's Day , in court with us. Now it wasn't much of a court - a bit of a disappointment with only 12 seats-but it did have a raised platform and railed desk for the judge and two substantial tables, one for the defense and one for the prosecution . Sue and I entered the court room, recognized the three young bank tellers and said hello to them. They brightened and said, "Oh, so you're the real.ones." We exchanged nervous jokes, for we were all slightly nervous . I asked, " Who 's · minding the store?" They answered that they weren't at that bank any more . Two had been transferred immediately to other branches , and the head t eller said she had resigned because it was just too embarrassing . " Just too embarrassing ," she repeated several t imes . We a ll st r aightened in our sea t s a s th e door opened. There she was- the --defendant- " our " r obber . Wha t an odd sit ua tion .

Fin a lly the robed j udge ent er ed, an d our tri al, as we called it , began . One by one the tellers were sworn in. They cleared their throats, were asked to talk louder by the j udge , and shifted nervo usly on the stand. In contr a st, how cal m our r obb er wa s.

adelphia with Education Today. However, in mid-January she found herself at the Main Line Times. "I kind of assumed I would get . this journalism internship since I had experience with writing in high school and a_lso at Cabrini ." . She first applied to Cabrini's English and Communications department to see if she were qualified for the position and then she filled out a general application for the Main Line Times and began working . O'Hagan works under Joan Toenniesson, managing editor. She has already covered stories about Radnor High School basket·ball games and she wrote a followup story on Haverford College . "Even though I am disappointed about not receiving my original internship," she said, "I have to make the best · of my present work ." This is helping her to develop a substantial portfolio . This will help her move onto something new, like managing and law, when her internship is finished. in May. Bobbie Polomano , a senior, has moved onto bigger and better things since her last internship at New York Communications Company . Polomano is interning for WPVI 's AM/Philadelphia show . An ordinary work day for her runs between 9 a.m . to 4 p.m . on Tuesdays through Thursdays , and she attends classes on Mondays and Fridays. During the course of the day she goes through many different procedures. First , she types a list of the guests for that day , then she acts as hostess when the guests arrive . She speaks with the guests , shows them where the show will be and answers any questions they may have . During the show she runs errands for any last minute details and after the show she answers the telephones answering viewers ' requests concerning the guests of the day. She also joins her bosses Sherry Feldsman, producer; Elaine Newton, associate producer ; and the show's hosts, Claire Carter and Dave Roberts in their conference of how well the show went and what they will do for the next · show . She also reads the newspapers looking for interesting subjects to be on the show . At the end of the day she calls the guests for the next day and confirms their appearances. When applying for this internship Polomano wrote a resume and explained why she wanted to work in this area. Channel 6 granted her an interview and one week later, on Jan. 23, she began working . Both Johnson and her experience with New York Communications helped her get his internship.

Two join staff in Jan. to make sure that all tuition is paid on time. Wahsner has a background not only as a secre t ar y but als o with some experience in acc ounting . Wahsne r prev iously worked with her husband , an acc ountan t, at home as his secr eta ry . She also assisted him in some a cco unting matte r s. Wahsn er 's reaso n for wor king here at Cabrini is that she enj oys work ing in a st udent ty pe atmospher e, and since Cabri ni is not a very large school , it's easi er for her to get acquainted with the students . She enjoys her work very much especially with Sr. Sharon Morano, whom she descr ibe s as " wonde r ful to work with."

How to study for

BY MIKE GLACKEN The quest for Dean's List finds its first expression at midterm time. Aspirations of honor, scholarship and acclamation dance through the heads of practically every student.

studied the notes and attended the lectures, you can almost expect for certain a C. Now it's time to get serious. Move out! Be on time! Crank it on! Rip! Hold the cliches! In orper to really impress teachers with your scholarship it's necessary to apply what you've learned and prove it on the test. If they ask the value of grammar don't write that "its essentialness is good." Teachers have three let-ters for this kind of response . The first two are BS. The last is an F . There is no substitute for knowing your material , knowing exactly what the prof wants and giving him /her that.

Unfortunately the measures employed by most students border on the "inefficient." Trips to Florida during break are a tremendous catharsis. Unwinding in front of the television is great fun. Neither, however, will help get the dean 's attention . Well, you might get her attention, but it won't be for outstanding academic achievement. · Yes, you knew it all along .

Like standing on your desk screaming at the top of her/his lungs about your phonetic spelling. Which brings us to requirement three. You may continue if you can still comprehend the train of thought of this article and, within the past three months, no teachers have been standing on your desk screaming anything. Test-taking anxiety might still keep you spectating at .the next convocation. The best ways I know of relieving anxiety are : knowing the material (gotcha covered) and seeing the test beforehand . Don't laugh . Almost every teacher I know would be happy to show you the basic format of the test. Especially if 'you tell him/her that to see the format is to transcend pedestrian levels of achievement and make the leap in understanding analogous in nature to the one Einstein made with his theory of relativity.

Four who said "yes" to job BY SHEILA DOUGHERTY

On Monday Feb. 26 the Women's Group sponsored a lecture entitled, "Four who said 'yes' to non traditional occupations." The guest speakers were: Christine Murphy , CPA and audit manager; Cherie Noble, a ballet soloist/ballet master with the Pennsylvania Ballet; Joyce Rizzo, a chemical engineer and environmental coordinator; and Kathleen Grant, an administrative aid and stock broker . Murphy is- employed at one of the Big 8 CPA firms. She is the only woman to be in a mana2e-

ment position in Philadelphia. She admits that "there were some barriers" in obtaining this job. Noble entered a career as a ballet master which is usually dominated by males. She stated, "I have been able to do what I want to do ." Both Grant and Rizzo agreed that their jobs are :•unusual" for women. Rizzo admitted that when looking for her first job, "they didn't want to hire me because I was a woman." Rizzo is the "only woman engineer" at Sun Oil. All four women have said " yes " and succeeded in jobs that have been dominated by males.

He announced his intentions for the formation of a league in the Preservation and Perpetuation of Storytelling (NAPPS), the national newsletter for storytelling. - Craigie, who subscribes to the NAPPS newsletter, contacted Gray , The league started with six members in late summer of 1976 and its first storytelling meeting was held in

Craigie 's home in Devon , Pa . Craigie said the league's name was developed to include both urban and rural stories. The league relates a wide range of stories which include family ancedotes, traditional legends and jokes and ghost stories. The league meets . about three times a year for active members to relate stories . Besides these meetings, the league usually has one event that is open to the public.

Many hands stage play BY THERESA COLLINS

Did you ever wonder who puts a play together? One might suspect it is the director and actors and actresses that make a play what it is . True, these people help make a play a success or failure on stage , but ,what ab_out behind stage? Did you ever wonder who makes the actors look so good? Or who. changes the dark , dreary forest into a well-lit room ? Or how the play gets -publicized '! . All these questions can be answered in two words -- producti on staff . The production staff .are the miracle workers behind stage . These people work togeth er with the actors and direc tor in the pr oduction of a play. Without them , a play might re semble one of Shakespeare an tim e -- just a st age, actors and an audience. Those people that stay behind stage design costumes from scratch or redesign olq ones that came from a thrift shop or that were usecl in previous plays. They also work wi~h props, li_ghting,soun~ and publicity . All of these Jobs deal with the technical end of a play . You may wonder if these students receive any credit for their hard work and hours spent with a play . Well, the aQswer is yes and _no.

BY CONNIE AIELLO Storytelling usually conjures up images of small children listening to an adult relating a favorite bedtime story. To Carter W. Craigie, associate professor of Social Science, though, storytelling is an interesting and enjoyable hobbie . Craigie _is a member of the Cracker Barrell & Broad St. Subway Story Tellers League. The league consists of about 30 .people who simply enjoy relating various stories and legends . The league was organized by

, dents receive no credit and their work is all voluntary . According to Daniele Perna, director of the theater , these students are continuously learning about theater both on stage and off stage . It is an activity that teaches about acting and moods and demands a great deal of involvement. Some of these stage hand members are Shawn Stetser, Ed Cunningham , Frank Sirch, Walt Williams and David Tor i. When asked how they enjoyed their work and how they got involved with thea ter Tor i, Williams and Sirch all agreed that theater is fun and inter esting. Tori has an inter est in audio~electronics and he finds working behind stage is as intere sting as performing on stage. Williams replied, "I have two theater courses and I find working behind stage breaks up the atmosphere of always being up front." Sirch, howevet ,,.,was asked to join the production staff by Perna since he had previous experience at Cardinal O'Hara High School working with props and designing scenery . "Many times the stage hand members are misrepresented, but their rewards are worthwhile in the end. It is a wonderful learning experience for students because it is from them that creativity comes," Perna said .

yard. Another event, a story swap, was held at the Philadelphia Free Library. The story swap gave an opportunity for anyone in the audience to relate a story. Members of the league range in many different ages , occupations and backgrounds . Most people are between the ages of 25 and 40. A few members are librarians who are familiar with storytelling in libraries . Most of the members enjoy storytelling as a hobbie and are not directly connected with storytelling in their daily jobs :

Craigie said that for most people storytelling is "purely for fun" and "an avocation ." Craigie said the next planned public event will take place in the summer of 1979.This event will be held at Penn's Landing in Philadelphia . Storytelling .will be held in a very relaxed atmosphere in which anyone from the· audience can relate a story. "The events are ," Craigie said, "simply a good opportunity for people who like to tell stories to get together."

Superman not so super

WHEN IRISH EYES ARE SMILING .. . Well, they're not all IrisJteyes, but the participants in Cabrini's Annual Irish Minstrel Show, Irish or not, smile and will have you smiling too on Thurs. evening, Mar. 15 in the gym, as they celebrate St. Patrick's Day in traditional, even though unconventional, style.

BY KATIE WITE NGIER It's a bird , it's a plane , it would be great as a dollar movie ! Superman opens with Marlon Brando , as Superman 's father, and the already to o-overdone Star Wars' effects . But don 't worry , the movie gets somewhat better . Christopher Reeve , an unknown, does a believable job · as Clark Kent. He plays oppos ite Margot Kidder ( Lois Lane ) very naturally. All the pieces are there : Jimmy Olsen, Perry White and kryptonite, but they don 't quite fall into place. In spite of this , the movie has its funny moments. Although similar in style to the television series , there are some apparent differences . " Truth ,

jus tice, and the Amer ica n way" is still Superman's mott o. Included in it now is a new-found attraction for Lois , after all , this is 1980, not 1950. Their relationship will make a great sequel in Superman II, but may not get a PG rating. Some of the humor derives from updating the movie to present-day New York. Superman no longer has the convenience of using a phone booth as his dressing room. They just don't make them like they used to. The new Superman is portrayed as being a bit more dumsy, but does still manage to get the job done . Superman is a great escape for those who feel like flying. If you in- , sist on going for $3.50, take your own popcorn .

The members of the Living Arts Society are the individuals organizing behind the scenes and often entertaining in the forefront of the club's most well-known event, Evening at 9abrini. According to President Frank Morelli, a freshman, the purpose of the Living Arts Society is to "provide entertainment for students in all different forms. "We're not out to make money," he added . The club presently has about $200.00 in savings, which is used to maintain the public address system owned by the society. The club rents this system to other clubs and organizations for a nominal fee, depending on the length of time it is used. This fee is also used for the upkeep of the system . This semester the Livin'g Arts Society bas alread y sponsored the Skybreak concert , which was held on Jan. 26, an E vening at Cabrini, held on Feb. 9, and the film, "Qµeen of th e Star dust Ballro om," on Feb . 14.

O'Connor twins"Double trouble" .. BY KITSY HUMES

O'Connor twins: which one is which? Photo by Jim Amalfitano

Recruitment BY BEATRICE HICKEY For most of us the idea of recruiting players for a particular sport is something we know little about. My lack of knowledge on this subject prompted me to do a little investigating. According to Jolyon Girard, one of Cabrini's athletic directors, recruitment is a time consuming activity . Girard spends an average of four hours a week recruiting in Philadelphia and Jersey high schools and junior colleges. He also spends some weekends and holidays in search of talent. Recruitment for Cabrini is q~ite different from recruitment for large universities. Digger Phelps, head coach of the Notre Dame basketball team , was quoted recently in the "New York Times"

d·ifferent

You're Marianne and you're Margaret, right? Wrong, I'm Margaret, she's Marianne. Sound familiar? Like something out of Starsky and Hutch? Well, not quite the same but almost. In case you don't know, O'Connor is the name, basketball is their game and being twins 'is their fame. Yes, together on the court they provide double trouble when it comes to opposing teams, double confusion to official refs when deciding who fouled who and double vision to fans as to which one is which . Nicknamed "Oakie" because of their last name, freshmen

at Cabrini

Marianne (who plays forward) and Margaret (who plays center) are from Springlake, N.J. where they attended St. Rose of Belmar high school in New Jersey. For two years they were both part of their high school basketball championship team. They practice together most of the time and when uked if they would miss each other if they attended different colleges, they both replied "yes" at the same time. What's it like being identical? Margaret replied, "Sometimes it's fun. In one game the ref flipped out because she couldn ' t tell us apart." Marianne added, "Other times we don't like it because it

gets too confusing." Coach Helen Goodwin says, "I don't have trouble telling them apart. I might have yelled at Marianne and Margaret wrong but that's because I • didn't look at them." Team Captain Maurene Burns described them as being "good hustlers and an asset to our team." Whatever the reason is that you come out to see the women's team play, .you won't be seeing double when you watch Margaret and Marianne play. These two have a sense of direction as to where each one is on the court and make the connections as well as the moves when it comes to scoring points.

Girard works for athletics

Winning str~ak continues, Cavs increase record to 14-5 BY JOE KRAVITZ

The Cabrini Cavaliers under headcoach Jolyon Girard extended their season record to 14-5. The latest two victories came from the hands of Pinebrook Jr. College and Williamson Trade School, the latter . being a victory on the road. In the first contest the Cavaliers shot down the Panthers of Pinebrook by a score o( 79-57. In this game the Cavaliers led completely throughout the contest soley on the efforts of guard, Andrew Cullen, who hit for 31 pts, . and center, Mike Ferguson, who contributed with 18 pts. Later in the week the Cavaliers took on the Mechanics of Williamson and encountered little trouble. Final score in this contest read 89-74, Cabrini. The guard combination of Cullen and freshman John Keating once again this season teamed up for 51 of the Cavaliers total 89 points, with Cullen hitting for 26 pts. and Keating connecting for 25 pts. in the contest .

Earlier, the Cavaliers were able to defeat the Knights of Northeast Christian by a score of 7~. The game was one of the most exciting games of the season due to the constant exchange of momentum which took place, with the momentum falling in the hands of the Cavaliers at the final buzzer. Again this same momentum carried on against the Flames of the Academy of New Church. The final score illustrated this as the clock read 86-58, Cabrini. The key to this game was the ability of junior captain John Gallager and forward Tom Woolfolk to intimidate the Flames' inside game to the point where they waited to the 15:43 mark of the first half to get their initial points in the contest. Leading the way . for the Cavaliers were freshmen, Mike Ferguson and John Keating. The two hit for 24 and 20 pts. apiece. Also notable was point guard Andy Cullen who penetrated inside to score 14 pts., yet more importantly he was able to dish off 14 as-

sists to set up the triumph. However, in the Christian game things were not as easy. It wasn't until 1: 13left in the game that John Derham, a freshman guard, was able to answer with two critical foul shots that Cabrini ,could declare this a victory. This was due to the ability of the Knights to scrap from a 15 pt. deficit by using a press which cut the Cavaliers lead down to three points. . After seeing the lead dwindle, head coach Jolyon Girard extended third guard to help break the press. When asked why the choice . of Derham in this pressure situation Girard stated, "We went with Derham because of experience and also due to the fact that he had been elevated to the third guard slot filling in for other injuries." Other key performers in the victory over the Knights of Northeast Christian were Cullen, Ferguson and Keating. The trio reached double figures scoring honors with 25, 18, and 16 points each.
