Hurricane heralds mud-ball season Hurricane Gloria may have lost her steam, according to the weather forecasters; but her affects were still felt on the east coast states, giving Cabrini and other schools and businesses an extended weekend. Aside from the damage and inconveniences caused by the storm, students enjoyed the free day as a chance to break away from their usual schedules. At right, some students formed a mud-ball game on the boggy Woodcrest front lawn. Participants waddled through mud puddles all in the name of good sportsmanship. Other students awaited the passing of the storm with more sedate activities on various parts of the campus. Most students caught up on sleep, cooked their own meals in their dormitories, or tried to contact their families living in the coastal regions over the telephone. (photo by Monica Palko)
Athletic scholarships second to academic by Cara Graham Scholarships, both academic and athletic, have certain criteria that students must uphold in order to keep their award. An academic scholarship is based on the student's grade point average, while an athletic is based on the student's athletic ability and financial need. Arlene McEvilla-Dittbrenner, financial aid director, said that the criteria has remained the same for at least seven years. As of1986-87, there will be a change in the scholarship policy. All in-coming freshmen who have received scholarships have the opportunity to keep their scholarship but at a lower grade point average of 3.3 out of a possible 4.0 when they enter their sophomore year. The previous requirement had been 3.6 in order to receive the award for the next year; -a3.75 was required to keep the award at its full value. Sophomores and juniors have an open competition for academic scholarships without their overall cumulative average affecting their chances; only the previous year's work will have any bearing on the decision.
All incoming freshmen who have receivedscholarships have the opportunity to keep their scholarship but at a l9wer grade point average of 3.3. McE'villa-Dittbrenner said that more money is set aside for academic scholarships than athletic scholarships. Accord. ing to the NCAA rules regarding athletic. scholarships, the recipient must need financial assistance in order to qualify for
Lisa Catini, junior, has had her athletic scholarship since her freshman year. Catini said, "I have no difficulty with my school work and sports. In fact, if it wasn't for my scholarship I'd have to work off campus which would take too much ofmy time thus my school work and sports activities would suffer."
'I find budgeting my time to be the most difficult. But I have a better opportunity_to get involvedwith school activitiesnow that I don't have to work off campus.' -Barbara Colantuono, ¡ senior Barbara Colantuono, senior, has an academic scholarship. Colantuono said, "I find budgeting my time to be the most difficult. But I have a better opportunity to get involved with school activities now that l don't have to work off campus." Colantuono also commented that she only had the scholarship for this year. Colantuono said she had better grades her junior year because she felt graduation closing in. "When I started to think about graduation and sending resumes to future employers, I realized that they look at your college record so I started to really get serious about my school work and I found I was eligible for a scholarship." Catini, when asked what she had to do in order to keep her athletic scholarship, said, "I have to attend all practices and games. That's the¡ easy part, hut I have learned to work with a team, which is hard to do when you have to work."
Studentsrecall Gloria'swrath by Michelle M. Bamber Last Thursday, hurricane warnings were issued for states from North Carolina to Connecticut. Hurricane Gloria could have been the most destructive hurricane of our time and people all along the expected danger zone took precautions. Thousands of people gathered around their televisions to keep updated on the hurricane situation. They were told she could take three main paths, and our area was directly in one of them. Resident students and commuters were all affected in some way by Gloria. Cynthia Goss,junior, is an employee ofK-Mart in Strafford and was working Thursday evening before the storm. "People were buying batteries and flash lights and before the end of the night we were out of them." Lucia Laurito, senior, was in the Acme Grocery store in Wayne before the hurricane hit. "People were grabbing the food off the shelves and carts were overflowing. It was like the Indy 500 with carts!" School was cancelled on Friday because of the hurricane, which resulted mainly in heavy rains and slight gusts of wind. Electricity was lost on campus for almost nine hours and the campus phone system was down. No major damage was suffered by the college except for a tree that fell in front of Xavier Hall. There was an incident of flooding in Xavier Hall. Chris Corcoran and Jon Janelli, juniors, will have to move -into a single because of flood damage suffered to their room in the lower floor of the dorm. This room was the same one that flooded last year and Corcoran said the room flooded despite relandscaping efforts during the summer. The tele.vision lounge in the lower floor of Xavier Hall also flooded. Students were able to attend lunch in the cafeteria on Friday even though the electricity was off. The cafeteria was lighted by candles and according to a cafeteria employee, over 100 students came to eat. Students used their free afternoon playing mud football and trivial pursuit, relieved that the hurricane did less damage than expected. Cindy Kehler, sophomore, said her family owns two houses in Sea Isle City, NJ. ''There was really no damage except that sand blew in and got on the carpet. No windows were ~roken and there was no water damage. My dad did remove our boat from the water." Christy Mason, sophomore, resident of Port Jefferson, New York (east end of Long Island) said that her family lost their electricity on Friday and it can not be restored until today or tomorrow. 'i\11 the food went bad, and they have to cook outside on the grill. My sisters can't even go to school." Patty Torzone, sophomore, commuter, said that her home in Eagleville, PA was not too badly damaged except that her basement flooded and became water logged. "I spent my day off vacuuming up the excess water." B.J. Petracci, junior, has a summer house in Longport, NJ. Her basement also flooded and had significant water damage. ''The ocean and the bay met in front of my house. I was really worried when I heard on the news that they had evacuated Longport."

Ode to' unsung heroes Compromise is one word that could be used to describe the attitude on our campus during the Friday electrical loss due to the now infamous hurricane Gloria. There was much to compromise because with the electricity off for nearly 15 hours, the women could not blow dry their hair or watch the daily soaps while on the men's side, stereos were mute and the buzzing of N orelco shavers could not be heard. Administratively, those sleepless resident assistants stayed awake most of the night waiting for the final verdict as to whether school would be cancelled in the morning. Sleepy-eyed and weary, they constructed humorous posters to inform the early risers to stay in bed. Special thanks should be given to all the emergency personnel on campus who remained on duty · during the entire ordeal and maintained a jocular attitude throughout the whole thing. Charlie Berardi, the cafeteria manager, and his crew, pre- . pared makeshift, yet plentiful, meals throughout the day that kept the campus population happily fed despite having his electricity pop on and off throughout the day. Cabrini's maintenance department, led by Mike Caranfa, physical plant director, kept busy and kept smiling throughout the day as they tried to restore power and also remove disabled vehicles. One of the major projects of the day was the removal of a gigantic tree that fell across the main entrance and blocked the roadway to the houses. A special thanks should go to everyone who remained on campus, for living through the ordeal with a smile on their faces. Students were able to share quiet moments with roommates, although one bunch of hearty souls, men and women, decided to liven up the day with a game of mud football in front of the Woodcrest dorms. The men's cross country team, once again doing the unpredictable, decided to not let the fou'l weather upset their training regimen as they treated themselves to a rumble and tumble frolic under the early morning downpour. Maybe what this campus needs is an emergency every couple of weeks in order to demonstrate the real personality of the school. The te;lllporary loss of daily privileges showed the ability to forget the seriousness Qf education and remember that those people down the hall could be fun to be with too.

Cafeteria solutionsnot so simple Dear Editor, Modifying the instructional timetable in order to relieve the queuing problem in the cafeteria is not as simple a solution as the editorial writer suggested in the September 27th issue of the Loquitur. In the past other individuals and groups have proposed changing the time table or class day sequence in order to accommadate extra-curricular activities, off-campus commitments or individuals' preferences. Any change in the timetable would complicate both the assignment of courses and instructors by the departments and the selection of courses by students. However, if we are to modify the timetable, we must take a global view of all of the problems related to the schedule and consider any changes within a framework of institutional resources and constraints. Any modification to the instructional timetable would have to address the need for more classroom soace and inRf:t-ncl:innAl tim.. 'h,.J_
ance the distribution of courses, improve the selection of courses, balance enrollments in mutiple section courses and neutralize both the student's and the teacher's preference for prime time class periods. A 'rotary timetable' that satisfied all of these requirements was proposed by this office at Academic Council last year but was rejected. As both the Registrar, the person responsible for managing the instructional timetable and constructing the master schedule, and as a lunch room patron, I am aware of the overcrowding problem in the cafeteria and recognize the need to resolve that problem to the satisfaction of both the food service managers and the meal plan students. Although I would prefer not to change the timetable at this time, I will offer a few suggestions on how to resolve the problem. Any solution will evoke objections and complaints from some individuals and groups but here are a few gn,,.n.o.a+;,.. ..u,• ;_ , .... ...1....- +.....control the
Experiencinga real hurricane Hurricane Gloria may have been known more as "the hurricane that ~n't," but f~r some few, intense hours the night before she struck, she brought some real fear's to students such as myself who live within close proximity of the ocean. While listening to the non-stop news updates, my mind spun with memories, fears, trivial statistics. I've gathered some here in authentic "stream of consciousness" fashion - a type of personal "time capsule" of the "second most dangerous hurricane in the history of the east coast." Nonstop news updates showing satellite photos, the · evacuating shore residents, speaking of the impending doom...discovering that Gloria might visit my hometown with her tidal wave friend and wondering what the ocean would look like in my front yard ...frustration when jammed phone circuits prevented me from reaching my parents ...hearing Atlantic City casinos thought the storm was so dangerous that they shut down for the first time in their nine year history ... News that my "never-leave-the-house" grandmother had evacuated ...nervousness in Mom's voice when she warned me not to go outside ...Dad's description of the pandamonium scramble to put all of our furniture up on blocks, valuables in the attic, moving cars to higher ground, trying to get our "auto-phobic" cats into the car ...my little brother watching cartoons all day oblivious to the reports, asking "what hurricane?"

number of students in the cafeteria at any one time. divide the lunch period into four 40-minute segments (11:30-12:10, 11:55-12:35, 12:20-1:00 and 12:45-1:30) and assign an equal number of meal plan students to each segment. Another suggestion involving modification of the timetable is to open the cafeteria at 11:00 a.m. and start half of the courses offered following the 9:50 period at 11:00 and the half at 11:30. With this formula, half the students would line up for lunch at 12:25 and the other half would arrive at 12:45 but a student with both an 11:30 and a 12:50 class would have to eat at 11:00 or not at -all. Finally, if half of the courses offered at 11:10 met three times aweekfor 50 minutes, half of the students from this period would line up at 12:00 noon and the other half at 12:25. NOTE: This semester, 350 students are in class at the 11:10hour on Monday and Friday.
The Sept. 27 "Update" listing reported incorrectly that Avis Booker had been promoted to director of housekeeping. This position was actually assumed. by Diane Schaffer, who replaced former director Judy Clay Miles. Booker is now the supervisor of housekeeping. We regret this error.

Lack of publicitystirles participation by Rhonda Dannenhower Communication is a large problem at Cabrini, despite the college's relatively small campus. Students, the Student Government Association, SGA, officers and Colleen DiRaddo, director of student activities, all agree there is a lack of communication where campus activities are concerned. Activities are planned, but often are poorly attended due to lack of participation by campus students. DiRaddo feels the reason participation is so poor is partly due to the publicity of the activities. "Some activities are poorly advertised, but that is only part of the problem. Low participation is also due to the fact that many students are homebound on weekends," DiRaddo said. ''They go home three out of four weekends, and the one weekend they stay on campus may happen to be an off weekend." Brian Feeley, junior, student activities committee chairperson, also feels there is a publicity problem. "Everyone is too busy to take the time to find out what is going on. The students must take the initiative to look on the This Week At Cabrini, TWAC, or SGA page of the Loquitur to see what is going on," Feeley said. The respon•sibility of publicizing the various activities on campus belongs to the club sponsoring that activity. "Social activities on campus which are sponsored by SGA are the responsibility of the activities committee to publicize. I make sure the events get put in the Loquitur," DiRaddo said. Feeley stated, "IfSGA helps another club sponsor an activity, that club is responsible for publicizing the activity." DiRaddo relies on the Loquitur and flyers placed on tables at various meals in the cafeteria to publicize activities. Feeley relies on word-of-mouth. "It is hard to try different forms of publicity on a campus this size; generally publicizing verbally is the most efficient." Kathy Funk, sophomore, activities corn~ mittee first assistant, makes posters to hang around campus. "The problem with posters is that in the Sacred Heart building and the Widener Center Gathering Area (WCGA), posters are not allowed to be hung on painted walls or glass. This limits the places they can be hung, and often eliminates readily seen areas." Zina Wilson, senior, feels that posters are a necessity. "The only time I hear about a dance is when there is a poster publicizing it hung near the Wigwam. Since I live in

McManus House, I mainly rely on what my friends tell me is going on because posters are never hung in our lobby." Lori Rudinski and Jackie Gerhart, juniors, commuters, try to participate in everything they hear about. "Not a lot of commuters attend activities on campus because, unless there is a poster hung in WCGA, we don't hear about them," Rudinski said. Gerhart said, "I mostly rely on word-ofmouth because usually there are no posters hung up for the smaller dances." Gerhart suggested placing flyers on the tables in the Wigwam and the gathering areas because commuters are always sitting at the tables. Jim Welde, sophomore, andJeffKardos, junior, would like to have the upcoming activities announced over lunch on the intercom system like last year. "I feel that the announcements at lunch are a benefit because if you have class until 12:25, the tables are all filled and the flyers are often gone. The announcements are heard by everyone," Welde said.
DiRaddo said, "There are no announcements in the cafeteria because the sound system is so poor. The messages become garbled and too scratchy to come across properly." DiRaddo has tried having Campus Sound disc jockey during dinner, but they charged $15 a night. "I would like to have them (Campus Sound) twice a week at dinner, but they are just too expensive." Most students agree that even when the activities are publicized, they are not publicized enough time in advance. Wilson said, "I rarely see signs up for dances before Thursday." Lynn Dooling, sophomore, said, "I don't see signs for things until two days before the activity is supposed to take place. This isn't enough notice. I usually plan to go to Partner's Pub or go home by then." DiRaddo has decided to change the TWAC page of the Loquitur to fit the interests of the students. Activities will be put on the TWAC page two weeks in advance. Surveys are also being conducted at dinner to find out students' likes and dislikes.
Many students find things to do off campus on weekends because they do not hear about things on campus. Mariane DeFruscio, sophomore, said, "There is nothing to do here unless there is a dance, so I go to Villanova on weekends." Staci Pasquale, freshman, does things off campus with her friends from Harcum Junior College. "There is always something going on over there (Harcum)." DiRaddo said, "An activity will be planned for every Saturday whether it is an afternoon or an evening activity to alleviate having off weekends." DeFruscio feels that the students need some place to socialize on campus. She suggests a place on campus like "Cheers" (a student center located at West Chester University's campus) where there is a wide screen television, food and drink bar, and music and video games. Cabrini's need for a student center was identified last semester by SGA, but the issue has not been pursued at present.

Tuesday, September 24, an intruder stalked Cabrini Campus. At 11:20 p.m., security received a call that a tall D:lale dressed in black was lingering behind Xavier Hall. The suspect was said to be carrying a long, shiny knife. Rich Scattergood, campus security, responded. Approximately ten students combing the woods while shouting obsenities hindered the search. The matter was turned over to the Radnor Police who were notified at 11:33 p.m. Jim Winters; freshman, was among the first to encounter him. ''A couple of friends and I were sitting on the rail outside Xavier around 11 p.m.," Winters said. "I looked over and saw this guy hiding behind the lower north wall of Xavier. He was all dressed in black and had on a steel mask so that all I could see was his eyes and his nose. He had Chinese stars running down his right leg and was carrying a three foot sword." Winters continued, "He was staring at us for fifteen minutes. I pointed to him and said to my friend, 'Let's go see who it is.' I thought it was one of my friends until he whipped out his sword. We invited him to Partner's Pub and he. started swinging his sword around and doing some samurai moves, but he didn't say a word. Then, he ran and stopped at the edge of the woods." Detective Pat Grace of the Radnor police said, "Seven police officers and Sergeant D. Clayton responded to the call. The officers conducted a thorough search of the woods

with negative results." Grace explained, ''The reason why so many men responded to the call was that during the high night crime hours, we. had extra men on duty." Throughout the night, several students called security with reports of sighting the suspect, but all with negative results. Whenever an incident involving an unrecognized intruder occurs, it sparks a feeling of fear among the students. "Something like this happened my freshman year," Debbi Maida, junior, commented, ''It makes me wonder if campus security is really enough to protect us." A major security problem is the tremendous accessibility of the houses in the woods. Security does one major house check every night and checks periodically throughout the evening. The primary worry is that someone will wander in with the weekend traffic when the doors are unlocked. Dan Neyer,directorof campus security, said, •~nyone between the ages of 18 and 22 looks like they go here unless they ~re acting really strangely." One ·suggestion was Cabrini I.D. ckecks."l've discussed that with Mary Ellen Lilly, directorofresident life. The problem · is that there is so much activity after 12 on the weekends, and if we stop everyone there will be friction between students and security. "

Administrationand Kappa work together by PeggieFedericoand Navaz
Mehta For 16 years, Kappa Sigma Omega, Cabrini's student-run service organization, had been solely responsible for organizing Parents Weekend. This year, however, the event was coordinated with the assistance of members of the college administration. Working in conjunction with administration was recommended last year when it was determined that the event had grown too large for just Kappa's membership to prod1J.ce. The student population has almost tripled since the first Parents Weekend. Initially, however, the appointment oiSr. Christine Marie Baltas, dean of students, as an administrative representative in charge of coordinating all aspects of Parents Weekend, caused initial resentment and speculation on the part of Kappa members. According to the article, "Kappa: Who's in Charge," written by Gia DiGiminiani in the May 3, 1985 issue of Loquitur, Kappa members felt wronged and insulted, that the coordination of Parents Weekend was being "taken away" from them by the administration. Baltas stated in the article, "Having administrative departments overseeing the various aspects of Parents Weekend will give Kappa authority and clout, and assure the college of consistency in producing good work." Jennifer Moore, who moved into the presidential position of Kappa last December, is quoted in the article as saying, '¼t first I did not understand the reasoning behind the decision, but now it is a lot clearer. We were upset over the idea of losing control of Parents Weekend, but we do need support." What is the feeling of Kappa members now, after having worked several months with administration in preparing the weekend's events? "The administration has been very helpful with the planning," said Moore. "Jan Buzbee, (director of public relations) helped with invitations. Sr. Christine (dean of students), handled parents' calls. Betsy MacIntosh (director of development) helped with the labels and mailing lists." "The events and scheduling were easier to operate with their help, especially due to the connections they had," Moore continued. Although she is enthusiastic about the assistance and the high level of member morale, she is disappointed about the
absence of a field hockey game. She feels this void was created by a lack of communications between departments. Sean Meenan, treasurer of Kappa, agrees with Moore concerning the good morale of members. ''Everyone is willing to serve," Meenan says. His concern lies in a couple of switches made in Parents Weekend, the main one being hotels. These concerns could be alleviated if communications are improved. Other Kappa members, some of whom wish to remain anonymous, feel that the communications gap between the administration and executive board of Kappa is creating a lot of frustration within the organization. Things are not going according to plan and they feel they are doing double the work and not accomplishing as much. Their efforts are not being rewarded due to the lack of organization. One member says, "I like the services Kappa performs, but it is not totally organized. I realize it's a tough job, but I feel we are capable of doing better." Steve Saville's statement concerning Kappa reflect a very optimistic attitude. "We get things done and everyone is dedicated," said Saville. However, he agrees that the communication lines between Kappa and administration are in need of improvement. Carter Craigie, the advisor for Kappa, fails to see any real problem in the administration's communication with Kappa. "Sister Christine bends over backwards to let Kappa know what's happening," Craigie said. He sees a real improvement in the organization over previous years. Administrators have varied responsibilities in conjunction with Parents Weekend: Sister Christine Marie Baltas, M.S.C., dean of students, is overseeing the entire weekend, particularly the President's Reception; Betsy MacIntosh, direc-
tor of development, is assisting Baltas and is coordinating the Parents Advisory Committee; Dr. Mary Ann Biller, academic dean, is in charge of scheduling the academic lectures, while Jan Buzbee, director of public relations assists from a public relations standpoint. "With our help, it takes a bit of the load off of Kappa's shoulders," McIntosh said. The Kappa constitution states,"Kappa Sigma Omega is a service organization whose members serve as representatives at college functions and off-campus events, and assist the administrations office staff by conducting tours for prospective students. In addition, Kappa Sigma Omega members organize and sponsor Parents Weekend, a fall campus event."

M~dia used in college's promotional plan by Charles Dodds
People most commonly use the radio when waking up, or to make a traffic jam more bearable. We are used to turning it on when we want to listen to our favorite music or radio personalities, or when we want to find out the day's news. Now it is also possible to shop for a college by radio. Cabrini, joined by other institutions like Villanova University, Temple University and Philadelphia Community College, uses the radio and other forms of media for promotional purposes. '¼nybody who is serious about their education should consider Cabrini College." This is the slogan used by the college in its radio promotion. Cabrini, besides radio and newspapers, also broadcasts advertisements on N. J. Cable Televison. According to Jan Buzbee, public relations director, the budget has been frozen for the past two years. The college's promotions must then stay within a budget. This is achieved by keeping the marketing program status quo and not allowing for any new areas of promotion. John Dzik, director of admission and athletics, thin.ks that if the college had more money in its promotional budget, it could solve the misconception about Cabrini being a women's college.
Buzbee thinks that if she had a public relations assistant, she could promote the college more efficiently. Then, all the public relations and promotional responsibilities would not rest upon her. When it comes to promoting the college, the Public Relations Department sends information out to as many newspapers as possible. ''The more media coverage we get, the more aware the public is ofour school," Buzbee said. In addition to the various types of publications, admissions representatives visit the local Catholic high schools, since 75 percent of the students at Cabrini come from a Catholic high school. According to Dzik, when he and his counselors promote the college they emphasize that Cabrini has a strong academic programs in accounting, English and commu. nications, pre-medical, and business administration.

campus.
This is due to the fact that Cabrini was exclusively for women early in the college's history. Many community members still believe that this is so, despite the fact that the college has been a co-educational institution since 1971.
When this occurs, the admissions department gives them a variety of informational pieces. This gives the student a more personal look at the college. The student then takes a tour around the college with either an admission counselor or a Kappa Sigma Omega member, the college's student service club. Open houses sponsored by the college also invite perspective students to view the campus. Those involved in Cabrini's promotions believe that once these students visit the college, Cabrini actually "sells itself."

Cartercommunicates emergencymessages by Virginia A. Smith Mexico City's earthqqake disaster was but a few hours old when Ham radio operator KA3IME began receiving phone calls requesting information ¡about relatives and conditions near the site. Obligingly, he manned his home base station, tapped out the morse code messages, and listened for the "X" code signifying messages from Mexico. According to KA3IME, alias Carter Craigie, professor of English and communications, sending Ham radio messages was the only way to contact Mexico City. ''The phone lines were down and the Telecommunications .building was leveled, making international communication impossible" said Craigie. "The no-electricity situation made radio transmii;sion difficult, but the Mexican operators were incredible, working all day with portable' generators and batteries to relay messages. It's really impressive." Craigie is a certified "traffic handler," licensed by the F.C.C. to transmit overseas person to person messages over the high frequency wireless radio channels. Along with thousands of amateur operators around the U.S., he put in overtime hours during this disaster. , "To get a Ham license, you have to pass a series of tests in various levels Morse code and radio operation theory. When the government grants you a license, they more or less expect you to work for the public during emergencies." "Hams were mainly established as a public service," said Rich Roth, sophomore, Ham radio operator, " and the routine transmissions we make just to say ''hi, how are you" are really so that we can practice handling traffic (transmissions) so that we are well-trained in efficient communication for when an emergency arises." Craigie spent long hours of his spare time listening for news from Mexico and relaying messages to individual families. Each message has to first be sent to an operator in a border state such as Florida or 'Thxas,(which usually takes several transmissions), then is re-transmitted to Mexico. A Mexican operator will contact the targeted family, relay the message and ask if a reply need be sent. With the thousands of operators transmitting, only the strongest signals get through, which often means waiting for the right atmospheric conditions.
''Fortunately, the messages I heard coming back were mostly positive," said Craigie. "Parts of the city weren't hit as hard as others, and it was mostly the older hotels, and not the places where Americans stayed, which crumbled to bits." Craigie was called to his station again last week for the anticipated disaster of hurricane Gloria.
'I enjoy the fun part of talking, but when it's emergency time, I fire up my station and move into action,' -Carter Craigie pr.ofessor,English and communications
"The Red Cross headquarters in Philadelphia,.the Eastern Pennsylvania Section Emergency Company, contacted our radio club, MARC, (the Mid Atlantic Amateur Radio Club) to set up a Ham s4ttion with my cables, antennas and microphone. They were prepared to coordinate which supplies needed to be shipped to which shelters and thought phones would be overburdened with calls or lines would be down." Roth, also a member of MARC, assisted in setting up the station. ''We ended up not having to transmit, since the storm wasn't as severe as predicted, but the important part was that we were ready to be of public service." Craigie then returned to his home to relay information on the progress of the hurricane from North Carolina, Virginia, and Maryland to the Red Cross. Since he received news directly from the Miami weather station, he was more updated than the television news bulletins. "By 2:00 a.m. I knew that Gloria wasn't going to be that dangerous,'' Craigie said. ''The National Weather Service gets alot of its warninge from radar," explained Roth, ''but it's the Ham operators who are key in getting direct, observational information to them."

He took his test in 1981 and has since exchanged messages with operators from euch distant countries as New Zealand, Soviet Union, South Africa. He also teachee continuing education classes in Ham radio craft. "I enjoy the fun part of talking, but when it's emergency time, I fire up my station and move into action!" Craigie said.
Ham is a method of wireless radio transmission. in which signals sent into the air, bounced off the ionosphere and received by a base station antenna. The signals can't be heard on AM, FM .or CB radio becauseHam operates at a much higher frequency.

How the term "Ham" came to mean "amateur operators'' is a mystery. Stories range from the letters signifying the last namee of the three original operators, to it standing for ''ham- fisted"or clumsy, since the operators were usually less adept than the original Navy experts.

Review:
Hedgerow:.Professionalth by Gia DiGiminiani
Hedgerow's season will include a variety of works by American playwrights, such as Tennessee Williams' "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" and William Inge's "Bus Stop." The theater is located on Rose Valley Road in Moylan. Tickets are reasonable for the student wallet, ranging from $5 to $10, and season ticket packages are available. Hedgerow's box office can be contacted ~t (215) 565-4211.
I left the theater, a rustic, Quaker mill; and walked solemnly into the blackness of a chilly September night. I wandered, pondering the haunting plot of the play I had just viewed, rather than concentrating upon the location of my car: I had spent an entertaining and insightful evening at the Hedgerow Theater in Moylan, Pa., two miles outside Media, where a cast of talented and diversified actors are opening their 1985-86 season with the drama, "Getting Out." Hedgerow, celebrating its 63rd season, is rich in theatrical history. Many actors who went on to achieve success in Hollywood and Broadway had their humble beginnings at Hedgerow. Hedgerow is a repetory theater located on 80 acres of farmland. The company is composed of nine actors who particips,te in all aspects of the production, from leading man or lady, to parking lot attendant. The actors also live together in a renovated barn which is adjacent to the theater; an old, stone mill. John Essick, director, public relations, commented, â&#x20AC;˘~ctors come in and learn
everything about theater. There are a lot of hungry actors." Not only is its setting picturesque, but Hedgerow's talent is also professional, with actors' credits extending from London to Hollywood. "Getting Out," an ominous, yet sensitive drama, is the creation of playwright Marsha Norman, famed for the Pulitzer prizewinning '"Night Mother." "Getting Out" was itself awarded the prestigious Actors Theatre New Play Festival in 1977. The play, running at Hedgerow through Oct. 13, explores the past and present of a young woman, Arlene, who has spent most of her life in delinquent homes and penitentiaries. The play opens with the woman, Arlene, being released from an Alabama State Penitentiary. After years of confinement in correctional institutions during her adolescence, Arlene finds herself an adult who is fearful of the prospect of finally assuming the responsibility of independence and freedom. Arlene competes for control both internally and on stage with the character, Arlie, a mischievous alter ego who represents Arlene in her youth and her years of confinement.

Seventeen years ago a drawing of trees and a sun thought to resemble Cabrini's wooded campus, was taken from a design on an old college catalog cover, and first used as a symbol for Cabrini, according to Jan Buzbee, director, public relations. "The trees and sun design was not meant to be a logo and was therefore not applicable to advertising, stationery or other forms of college pr.omotion requiring a unified element," Buzbee said. "It was a trite, uncontemporary symbol that was not designed by a professional designer. It ·was not usable becauseof the sloppy artwork showing unfinished and cut off edges; it could not be cleanly reproduced, and it took up too much space." According to Buzbee, it became necessary to ·find an up-to- date logo with a religious sense as Cabrini continued to advertise.
After extensive interviewing by the public relations department of several designers, McN eel, graphic designer, businessman, was chosen. The selection was based on his experience and impressive portfolio to create a new logo. Toking samples of the old logo
and creating several renderings for review, McNeel's illustrations were shown to 12 college administrators. The majority chose the current logo, which became effective in 1976. "Although there is no actual

~s the college began to develop more advertising, it became necessary to find an up-to-date logo with a religious sense' -Jan Buzbee, director, public relations
According to Jody Romano, junior, "It is a representation of mode·rn day society that lacks feeling and emotion; it is very 'plastic compared to the old logo, which said more to me about the college because it symbolized nature, tranquility and peace."
From an outsiders point of view, Chris Meyer, junior, Delaware County Community College, said, '"lb me, the inner part of the symbol signifies a tree of knowledge branching out, covering many different fields of study." Sr.Ursula Infante, MSC, likes the new logo better than the old because it represents the work of God.
''It is a symbol of our institution, founded by Mother Cabrini, who was inspired by God, and who inspired the Missionary Sisters of the Sacred Heart to carry out her ideals to bring people closer to God by means of education," Infante said. ·

lie evokes memories of Arlene's past, e pleasant, like childhood pranks, but st painful, including the nightmarish tality she experienced in prison from th inmates and guards and an estuous relationship with her father. The characters and the plot both seem adoxal in many respects. Much of the tion was explicit, yet Norman seemed stitant to directly ldentify the abuse as xual which Arlie received from her her. In another contrast, Arlene, finding herlf anxious to start a new, more prosrous life, still feels tempted to abandon r goal to resume a life of prostitution en her former pimp encourages her to veto New York City with him. e two characters also appear to be disct and opposite individuals.

Life seems to have left her tired and spent despite her youth. But it is Arlene's cling to hope that provoked my curiosity, and is the play's ultimate charm.

The characters' uniqueness is heightened by the fact that the two are played by two different actresses, Hedgerow's Rosemary L'Erario as Arlene and Teri Sweeney as Arlie. As the two characters are introduced, they seem to be at opposite poles. Indeed, through most of the play, I found difficulty in recognizing them as one. In fact, the two · draw closer during the course of the action. With Arlene's final reconciliation with her former self, the merge is solidified as the two characters join in speaking the play's final line; this is the first moment that the two coincide in dialogue. ·

Lady Cavs are off and running by.Marisol Rodriguez
The Womens' teams of Cabrini have added yet another sport to their agenda; women's cross country. Although students have attempted to initiate a women's cross country team in the past, it wasn't until this year that the team became a reality. Last fall, an attempt was made to develop a team, but their was not enough interest shown by the women. According to Bev Reilly, coach of the women's team, and director of campus ministry, ''The men's team has really given its support to building a solid women's team. I think the women on campus are afraid that they're not in shape, so many don't bother going out for the team. But, I want them to know that my job is to get them in shape; my excitement is to see them improve. Reilly, who has been running competitively for thirteen years, was a walk on for two years ~t Villanova and managed to earn a scholarship there. Although Reilly has coached cross country and track on different levels such as Villanova and the Bryn MawrHaverford Track Club, she feels her energies at Cabrini can be more effective here, then at the other places she has coached at. "I feel that by knowing a lot of people here, I can really attend to those who need my help", states Reilly. The team started training the week school began, and had their first meet last Saturday at Baptist Bible. Although there are seven women on the team, only Jeanne Robinson, and Peggy Federico, both sophomores, were prepared to compete. In a three mile women's varsity race with fourteen women competing, Robinson finished seventh with a time of 25:31 and received a medal for her efforts. Federico finished ninth with a time of 26:07. . According to Robinson, "I feel good about my performance on Saturday, but I know I will do better next time. My hope is to eventually have a big team that will interact as a family like the men's team does." The women's team will be a Division III team, but in order for this· process to occur, more women are needed, along with more training time. "My expectations this year are not really typical. I first want to see the development of a team. I then want to see the team members not only running for the college, but for themselves as well and naturally, I want us to eventually win nationals," Reilly said.
Cabriniteams move to NCAA
by Kim Stevens
The athletic program for men and women has recently finalized its transition from the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletic, NAIA, to the National Collegiate Athletic Association, NCAA, division m., The process of petition for membership into the NCAA began two years ago under the supervision of Jol)n Dzik, director, men's athletics. The college has been a member of the NAIA for eight years. Assording to Dzik, the college will be dual members of the NAIA and NCAA Div. m for a probationary period of two years. At that time, it will be assessed as to what decision the school will make on an institutional basis or on a sport-to-sport basis. Both men's and women's teams have been aligned with the Eastern Pennsylvania Athletic Conference, EPAC, within District 19 of the NAIA. However, there is some distinction between the two programs. As the men move on to NCAA Div. ill, the women will continue their competition within the NAIA for the remainder of this year. According to Helen Goodwin, director, women's athletics, "The NAIA is the only chance to get to post-season playoffs." The men's soccer team will also continue to stay in the NAIA this year. Bill Crowley, coach, said, "The soccer team was given the option of going either way." Since the NCAA funds activities and the NAIA does not, there was speculation involved in their decision. Crowley, however, feels the NCAA is tougher in respect to the Nationals. With this in mind, the soccer team chose to stay in the NAIA. The Nationals for the NAIA are being held in South Carolina this year and the team can drive there without any need of additional funds. Next year, however, the team will most likely move on to NCAA Div. III. . The decision to shift from the NAIA to NCAA Div. III was made ~ith hopes of bringing additional credibility to the college as well as to create some competition with other . schools of the same academic stature, such as Swarthmore, Haverford, and Widener. . Kevin Stephens, freshman, basketball player, said, "Moving from NAIA to NCAA is a challenge. This should · give Cabrini national recognition, as well as to give us a chance to play better competition." There will not be many changes in college policies regarding the transition, however, Dzik feels there may be some modifications in recruiting and eligibility rules. "I felt the time was right for the school to make this move, and that the move could only enhance the credibility of the college," Dzik said.

Twinsrunningdoubletime by Jeanne Reineberg
Think you are hallucinllting? Seeing double? Don't be alarmed and go rushing to see Nurse Mulligan because probably all you have is a temporary case of Dean and Paul Magolon. D_eanand Paul ¥agolon, freshman twins, who hail from Glenolden, PA, are two of the newest members of Cabrini's varsity cross country team. The -brothers have been running since the fifth grade, when they were 'discovered' by a friend who felt they had the speed and endurance for cross country runners. They gave up football to take to the roads and have been kicking up their heels ever since. Tom O'Hora, cross country coach, ,had been actively recruiting· the twins for two years and was quite happy Cabrini was their choice. "We really liked the area and size of the school. We were told the program (cross country) was on the rise and thought we might be able to help the team build and grow," explained Paul. O'Hora believes the addition of these two promlsing runners will help "give the team depth." "Dean and Paul have tremendous potential that only surfaced in high school," O'Hora said. While attending Academy Park High School, Dean and Paul had great success. They placed thirty-second and forty-eighth, respectively, in a natfonal meet, placing them among top runners nationwide. Also, Dean was ranked tenth in the state as a senior. . Constant family support, their father and two of their three sisters have been active runners, has been essential as both have crossed the nation to compete in Kansas, Tuxas, and as far west as California. The Magolans participated in J;he Junior Olympics and other like programs and clubs. This same support and encouragement has made adjustment to college life relatively simple. The twins have formulated a time plan that incorporates their class schedules, workouts, and team meets, as well as studying time. O'Hora felt it was important to note that the brothers, although devoted to their sport, also have their academic success and future careers in sight. The twins are both communications majors. For the twins, running an average of ten miles daily is not uncommon. Much of their time is spent practicing, racing, or resting up for the big meet.

Lady Cav'slook ahead by Katie Welsh The late-afternoon sun slips behind a dark, billowy cloud, and as the breeze picks up, more leaves and acorns fall onto the field. Radios and car engines can be heard in the distance as students, glad to be through with another day, settle down before a night of studying. But not everyone on campus gets to relax now. For the women on Cabrini's field hockey team, the work has just begun. The women's field hockey team, under the direction of Mildred Greenwood, practices almost everyday, and usually has games twice a week. This year's team is relatively young, consisting of five freshmen, five sophomores, five juniors and two seniors. "We lost a lot of girls last year which left holes on the forward line. Now we're working on rebuilding with the freshmen," Greenwood said. Peggy Federico, sophomore, right outer, feels the team is getting better each week. "We're working more and more together' as a team and improving every game," Frederico said.
Lisa Catini, junior, goalie, also feels very confident and says that the attitude of the team is good. Although the team is young, she feels this will be an asset in the years to come. . Catini, who has played field hockey for two years, was named Athlete of the Week for the game against Haverford on Sept. 17. "I couldn't have done it without the help of my teammates," Catini said. "We have a very strong defense which helps make my job a little easier." The Lady Cavs, who are Oand 4 so far this season, are looking forward to the next few games. Barbara Picciotti, junior, right line, feels that as the season advances, so will the team's skills. "We have a lot of potential. Each game you can see us working and , coming together better on the field," Picciotti said. Greenwood also feels the team is picking up momentum. She was especially pleased with the game against Eastern College on Sept. 24. "We played well defensively and held them to only two goals," Greenwood said. The field hockey team still has Coach Bill Crowley consults with the referees, one half of their season ahead of before the start of the game. (photo by Monica them. Palko) .

Advisingprocedures due for ·evaluation by Kathy Hibbard Are all faculty qualified to advise? Should there be a special set of advisers for freshmen? Are some departments overloaded with advisees, and what can be done to remedy the situation? _ · The above are a few of the points that will inevitably come into question with the evaluation of advising procedures, according to Dr. Mary Ann Biller, academic dean. Concerning the process of academic advising, Biller, said, "It is a human construction and like any human construction can be improved upon. Being such a vital part of student success, I can only encourage an evaluation of the overall system." As stipulated in the student handbook, academic advising is part of the workload of all full-time - faculty. The academic dean assigns each student a faculty adviser from .the appropriate department or program to help students plan an effective course, pace, and balance of study. Entering the junior year, the department chairperson in the student's major takes over the academic advisement of the student. A subcommittee of the admissions committee has been formed by Carter Craigie, English and communications department, Martha Dale, director of alumni affairs and . Gia DiGiminiani, junior. "We are reading all the literature we can about college advising and comparing our findings to what we offer at Cabrini. Our goal is to identify anything that is lacking in Cabrini's procedures and come up with better ways of advising," Craigie said. "It is an extremely important area to investigate. I don't want to rush it. We need the backing and the feedback of everyone associated with the college: students, faculty

and administration," Craigie continued. Pam Esposito, sophomore, said, "I've been very satisfied with'the advising services offered at Cabrini. My advisor is caring and is right on top of things; planning out the courses I must take, when I should take them and suggesting electives that might be advantageous." When asked what she thought of havJng a special set of advisers for freshmen, Esposito said, "There should most definitely be a team of faculty trained to work with freshmen. Freshmen have special anxieties and needs that can not be ignored. They are the ones most unfamiliar with the college's procedures. The set of advisors selected must be sensitive, patient and aware of the college's requirements." · Michele McLennan, freshman, believes there should be a preadvising session for freshmen. "I think an advising orientation would better prepare all freshmen for the workload they will be facing and make them aware of what will be expected of them academically." · Even though advising is part of the duties of all full-time faculty, immediately inequities are created, according to Biller. "Department enrollments increase more than others and often the faculty for that department does not," Biller said. Susie McKernan, junior, surfaced her concern for this imbalance. "In certain departments, faculty have an overload of advisees which takes away from the personal interraction." John De Turck, biology department, was equally concerned about this problem. "With the small size of the institution, faculty can very easily get to know their advisees on a personal, as well as academic level, and oversee their achievements. This is an added advantage unique to Cabrini. I would hate to see both

faculty and ·students deprived of this opportunity due to an overload in a particular department." Biller suggested training faculty from smaller departments-to advise students in departments that have an excess of advisees. "Personally, it would be difficult for me, but I do it all the time," Craigie said. "Students in my classes often consult me about their overall development and their course requirements regardless of their major." Craigie continued, "Advising students in your department is more personal. You interact with them in classes and are able to keep track of their growth and development in great detail. If faculty is assigned
advisees outside of, their department, the best advisers the college has must be selected." "I would feel comfortable with an adviser not in my department as long as he or she had consulted faculty from my major and was aware of the opportunities and responsibilities in my field," Esposito said. Whatever changes and improvements take place in the advising procedures, all must keep in mind that advising is a t.tyo way str.eet, according to Biller. "Students can not be selective or elective in attending advising sessions, and faculty, as well, must make known their availability and set aside time for office hours."

education requirements, major course requirements, grade point average requirements, overall and in specific departments. The above is the current overview of the system. Along with every other human construction, an advising system can be continuously improved. One way is to provide periodic workshops for advisers. Another way is to re-think the system, ie., should there be a special group of freshmen advisors? If such a group existed, should advising for freshmen begin before they arrjve? When? What kind of qualities should freshmen advisers have? Faculty from large departments have an inordinate number of advisees. The other alternative is to have advisers who are not from a student's major. How would the students react to that? I would be delighted if students brought some constructive ideas on advising to the Student Academic Council. It is easy to be negative. It is difficult, but rewarding, to be creative. We look · forward to your ideas.
