An historic look at the Main Line According

by Rebecca Rebalsky

to Sarah -Hayward

Draper, author of Once Upon the Main Line, some Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) · officers and stockholders complemented their advertising campaign by moving to the Main Line themselves. They built elegant mansions near the Main Line train stations. "Some properties had private bridges across the tracks and private whistle stops so that the owner could board a train from his own property," writes Draper. Soon after, Draper reports, young Philadelphians followed the PRR executives' example, and c0mmunities grew. along the Main Line. In time, the Main Line region was defined to include the towns along, what is now,'· Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority's RS, "Paoli Local" route: Overbrook, Merion, Narberth, Wynnewood, Ardmore, Haverford, Bryn Mawr, Rosemont, Villanova, Radnor, St. Davids, Wayne, Strafford, Devon, Berwyn, Daylesford, and Paoli. Today, the boundaries of the Main Line are "elusive" and sometimes : depend "strictly on personal opinion," • according to The 1987 Delaware Valley Community Living Guide. The guide identifies the Main Line as "one of the most desirable addresses in the nation." Most of the Main Line stops, like , Bryn Ma"'T and Narberth, have names of Welsh origin because the first settlers of the

From the first week of freshman orientation to the last days before graduation, Cabrini students are dedicated patrons of the neighboring town of Wayne. It does not take long before many come to intimately know the interiors of spots like the Wayne Tavern and Minella's Diner. Most likely, however, they do not know as much about the history of the to'.w'Il which supports these establishments. For instance, how many students are aware that Wayne was the headquarters of the Bulgarian government in exile while King Simeon II attended Valley Forge Military Academy? Or that the lakes on Eastern College's campus were once water sources for steam engines of the Pennsylvania Railroad? Or that . a tuberculosis sanitorium was located m Wayne at the turn of the century? These stories are included in Historic Wayne by Katharine Cummin of the Radnor Historical Society. Historic Wayne is one of many books written by local authors which detail the development of towns along the Main Line. Most of the authors agree that in order to un~~rst~nd the history of individual commurut1es like Wayne one must first become familiar with th~ development of the entire Main Line region. The term, "Main Line" dates back to the 1820s, when the Common. . . 7 wealth of Pennsylvania adopted a Ian to linkthe eastern and western regions of the Quakers. state with a network of railroads and According to Draper, England's canals.

does not trace its name to Wales. Wayne was named for Revolutionary War General "Mad Anthony'' Wayne, whose birthplace is at Waynesborough in Chester County. Like most other Main Line towns, Wayne developed as a community after first being the site of large country estates. Between 1864 and 1870, James Henry Askin of Chester bought nearly 300 acres of farmland in what is now central Wayne, according to Cummin. Askin named his property "Louella," for his two daughters, Louisa and Ella Askin. His mansion, built in the 1860s, was later enlarged and converted into the Louella Hotel, which became a popular summer resort for Philadelphians. Today, the Louella Apartments occupy the site on what is now Louella Court. Askin eventually sold his property to George W. Childs, editor of the Philadelphia Public Ledger, and banker Anthony J. Drexel in 1880. They bought Louella and some adjacent land, calling the property Wayne Estate. According to t1ieRadnor Historical Society, under Drexel and Childs, Wayne became the United States' "first commercial real estate development in the modem sense."

The pair built another summer resort hotei called the Bellevue, which had a board walk to the station. The Bellevue burned in 1900, and the AT & T building now occupies the We:;! Avenue site. Drexel and Childs also mapped out residential lots north and south of the railroad tracks. They built homes, and persuaded the railroad to add a stop, St. Davids, in east Wayne. The houses, some of which still stand on streets like Walnut and North Wayne Avenues, had five to seven bedrooms and were prired from $3,500 to $7,000. Drexel and Childs also encouraged the establishment of many businesses in Wayne. The Wayne business block which lies on East Lancaster Avenue between South Wayne and Louella Avenues, was first built in 1890. Early occupants included a barber, a druggist, and a post-card manufacturer. Today the block is the home of stores like The Gap, Pie in the Sky Pizzeria, and Wayne Sporting Goods. Drexel and Childs also installed an underlying drainage system for Wayne, arranged for utilities, and donated land for schools, a library, and a firehouse. According to Historic Wayne, "created an instant town before the advent of professional planning."

Counseling ad runs Some are blessed Early this year it was requested that an advertisement which contained the word abortion be canceled. The advertisement for AMNION crisis pregnancy center was scheduled to run alternating weeks twice a month for the year, grossing $440 for the newspaper. Money is not the issue. Loquitur has survived. The decision to drop the ad, however, was made without full knowledge of exactly what servic~s the center provides. The premature response was based on an ad Loquitur mistakenly ran last year for a gynocologist who performed abortions. He was not advertising his abortion service, but he did perform them. Sr. Eile_en, M.S.C., said she would support Loquitur in anything we wrote, but would not 5upport such advertisements because we received pay. Now that we know that AMNION is a Christian based, but nondenominational, counseling center that does not in any way encourage abortions, or even stand neutral and provide information about abortions, the ad will run again. In keeping with the true Christian philosophy, AMNION, along with several types of counseling, does post-abortion ministry. That is the reason why the word was on the ad. The center has counseled women who had abortions 20 years ago and are still experiencing guilt. Dr. Katherine Preston, director of the counseling center, said that if someone came to her for counseling and the fact that the person had had an abortion came up, she would talk with them about it. Both of these perspectives reflect a Christian way of thinking.

stephani giardini As editors of Loquitur, it is our concern to see that all material printed is accurate. On this tenet we have made some slight modifications.

When my turn to write the viewpoint rolls around, I find myself in a bit of a bind. This time, I wanted to break out of the stuffmess of serious matters and try my hand at a bit of slapstick humor. When I told my illustrious editor of my adventurous idea, she burst into laughter. I took it she liked the idea. Gee! If I could make her laugh (which is practically impossible) without trying, I could be a real scream if I put my mind to it. So take note. The "good egg" ( as I'm lovingly called - I hope? by my fellow editors) is cracking the shell and picking up the rubber chicken. Watch out Steve Martin! Yeah, right, Steph. O.K. Now. Here I am. Yes sir-ree bob, I'm certainly in the spotlight now. So, uh, I wonder what I do now? Gee, the idea seemed so easy at first. My fellow editors suggested that I should develop my humor ideas. So, I got up to leave. They asked me where I was going and I said, "To the darkroom to develop my ideas." Ha! Hey, guys (editors) help me out? ... Oh woriderful!

Cabrini goes '8G's by Roe Wellman I was totallyshockedwhenI firstfound out that Xavier might be going co-ed. My immediate reaction was,"Cabrini is ahead of Villanova at something!" Unbelievable as it may seem, Cabrini is stepping into the 80's (even if it is late in the 80's!) and as of next semester there is a good chance that we will have co-ed housing on campus. I was so excited about this milestone, I called my friend at the University of Delaware to tell her the news. To my distress she laughed and said that it was no big deal because her dorm is co-ed by room, not floor, or wing. I couldn't believe it, there were males to the right and left ofher? Cute ones too, she said. That's going a bittoo far in my opinion. I would simplydie. lt'sbadenoughthatmy · girlfriends have to put up with me in the morning never mind the male population, no matter how small. One question which I have has to do with our stupid parietals. If we have co-ed housing wouldn't one assume that we would no longer have the need for parietals.

Trying to be funny is hard work. (I get the distinct feeling that all I'm doing is trying.) I am used to capitalizing on dumb one liners for my laughs. You know the kind. When something is done or said and you know that some stupid remark could follow, but you think that no one would even consider saying it? - Well, I do! Though they make my audience disband rather quickly they usually keep me in stiches - Ha! I kill me. Please, let us relieve you.

It is a sickness that the other editors would love to find the cure for. I guess it could get annoying especially during deadline. The hour is late and the tension is high at deadline. If someone asks a serious question, they might just get in return a silly answer and five minutes of solo giggling. Wow! I'm lucky they haven't thrown me out the window along with the computer. We need the computer. Well, folks I've tried my hand at a bit of humor. To some of you I may have been mildly funny. Very mild.

Others may suggest I should give up my rubber chicken and stick to the serious stuff. I know I've had a blast.

Room dedicated in memory_ of Remley by Kristin Kroll

The memory of John Remley, instructor of business administration, who passed away on Feb. 2, 1986, has· been preserved in room 12 of Sacred Heart Hall. On Feb. 2, 1988, the Accounting Association, along with faculty, administration and students, took part in the dedication ceremony of the John Remley Accounting Room. "This room is a tribute to the man, so that in the future, students can see what kind of person John Remley was,'' Edward Christ, assistant professor, business administration, said. According to the many people he touched during his 16 years of teaching at Cabrini Col1ege, Remley was a friend to everyone. "I relied on him for wisdom and restraint," Brian Metz assistant professor, business administration, said. "He was always willing to talk and could calm me down when the tensions of teaching seemed too tough to handle." Frank Fusaro, junior said, "Mr. Remley was a cornerstone of the business department. He took so much interest in Cabrini: It was his life." "He had an unbelievable rapport with the students," John

Aivazoglou, senior, said. "He was an on-the-go, very smart, progressive teacher, who never stopped." Approxit_nately ~ ~ear ago, the Accounting Assoc1at1on, with the help of Ann Servey, instructor of business administration, and Christ sponsored fundraisers such as ~ino trips, raffles ?nd th~ selling of handmade pms to raise enough money for the dedication of the room. Since then the floor has been carpeted, the walls were painted, a plaque was hung, and Virginia Smith's (former ~ditorin-chief, LOQUITUR)article on the deceased Remley was

Biller, academic dean, had only words of admiration for their respecfed friend. "There never was a time, in moments of depression, or after a hard week," Christ said, "that John couldn't make me laugh." "The beauty of John was

he knew so well all the things that made up students," Biller said. Remley's wife, Mrs. Ruby Remley, a part-time teacher at Cabrini College, attended the dedication ceremony. She thanked everyone for the tribute to her late husband. "He truly loved you and the school,"

Mrs. Remley said. "I hope you get as much joy from this "classroom as he did." "As the old cliche goes, everybody can be replaced, don't believe it ," Romano said. "Remley WclS one of a kind, his spirit will never die."

'I hope you get as much joy from this classroom as he did.' -Mrs. John Remley ·framed--all in the preservation of Remley's memory. "People forget all-toosoon," Dan Kane, senior, said. "Maybe this will help his memory live on." During the ceremony, Servey, Christ, Dr. Joseph Romano, vice president for academic affairs, and Dr Mary Ann

On Feb. 9 a meeting was held, in place of the regular Student Goveinment meeting, to discuss the reconfiguration of Xavier. It was conducted by Joel Zazyczny, president of SGA and Christy Mason, president of the resident student association. The campus community was invited to participate in the open discussion. It was announced last Friday for the first time that the idea was approved by the administration. Emotions were stirred, questions were raised, and the grapevine began to ring. The first clarification stated was that Cabrini will not host a co-ed dormitory. According to the Resident Life Staff, Xavier will be considered as two houses joined by a common entrance. Options for males will be increased. There is a possibility th at men may be given three houses, or two houses and Counsel Hall. Counsel as a resident hall is up in the air at the moment due to the possibility of Counsel being used for administrative offices. Off-campus housing may be another alternative. Although Resident Life was unable to elaborate on this point, John Doyle, assistant director of resident life, guaranteed students that this off campus housing would be much nicer, and closer to the campus than Cabrini East. Sandy Prucha, director of resident life and Doyle stated that their first goal is to keep all residents on campus if possible. Before the final plan is presented to Sister Eileen,studentswillbegivenachance to it. Doyle reminds the student population that this plan is running on a trial basis and it is a wonderful opportunity for the campus community.

The goal of the committee, which has been working on theproposal sincethe summer, is to bring GER's more in line with the qualities of a liberally educated person, as defined by Cabrini.

' Practicing safe sex and using a good latex condom is a definite way to protect yourself from AIDS, according to a representative from the AIDS hotline. She also said that if the condom is not broken, it will decrease the risk at' least 99 percent and the virus will not penetrate a condom. How seriously are college students protecting themselves against AIDS? "I haven't changed my sexual habits because I only have one partner. I feel as though I have to protect myself against pregnancy more so than AIDS so I do use birth control. I know it exists but it has never hit home," a female, senior, said. T~e great~r numb 7r of partners you have had, the greater the risk of contracting the AIDS virus. It 1s also important to remeber that when you have sex with someone you are essentially having sex with everyone that person has slept with in the past fiv; to ten years, according to the representative from the AIDS hotline.

On Monday, Feb. 15, an open house will be held at Cabrini to give prospective students an opportunity to familiarize themselves with Cabrini. It is a chance for college transfer students and high school juniors and seniors to learn about the college's programs and admissions. In addition to giving students the opportunity to find out what Cabrini can offer them, the open house also will review application processes and aspects of college life. "The day is geared toward three groups: seniors, who are in the process of making college decisions for the fall; juniors, who may be beginning that process and transfer students, who can receive credit evaluations," Nancy Gardner director of admissions, said. ' Prospective students and their parents willbe able to tour campus facilities while faculty and staff will be on hand to discuss academic programs, student activities and financial aid opportunities. It will give these students a chance to here from present Cabrini students, and thealumniand admissions departments. Dr.Joseph Romano, vice-president of academic affairs, will also be on hand to talk about how to select a major.

Conflictresolvedthroughclarification by Angie Corbo Phone calls from angry alumni, students, and distinguished members of the college swamped the newsroom last spring when an advertisement from a local gynocologist who performed abortions appeared in LOQUITUR. From that point on the word "abortion" has been a sensitive word on campus. Last fall an advertisment from Amnion, a pregnancy crisis center located in Bryn Mawr, appeared in LOQUITUR. "Post abortion counseling" were the words featured in the ad. This wording confused and upset people in the college. Some saw this ad as a deja vu. In order to avoid a similar situation from occurring again, the President of the College, Sister Eileen Currie, recommended that the ad not run in future issues of the paper. Amnion officials were upset at this decision. Director of the center, Janet Lamont, said that there were no valid reasons to remove the advertisement from the paper. According to Lamont, Amnion is quite appropriate for Cabrini. Although Amnion is a non-denominational organization, they support the Christian views on abortion and birth control. Thus, Lamont called a meeting last December with school officials in order to

provide tacts to college officials about the organization in the hopes that the understanding would arise, and the ad would be permitted to appear once again. The majority of their clients are among the ages of 19-22. Amnion was purposely centered within the "college strip" to make itself accessible to women and men in need of their services. Amnion representatives said that they have been misunderstood. Their services do not provide, reccommend or encourage abortions. Instead, they just help men and women "find peace" with the decisions that they have made. Pre- and post- abortion counseling is an intricate part of their service to their clients. If a woman is uncertain of a pregnancy, shecancome intoAmnion and have a free pregnancy test. After the test, counseling is done in order to discuss the options. If she would choose abortion, Amnion officials would not assist her in going through with the process. Amnion would provide the woman with the information concerning the medical, psychological, and spiritual risks of the abortion. If, however, the woman would still wish to go through with the procedure, they would welcome the woman back for counseling after the abortion.

Discriminating against someone who has gone through an abortion is potentially dangerous. Amnion takes their clients through the grieving stages of abortion. Lamont says that the organization bases their stages on the stages of grieving that are sited in book, Death and Dying, by E.Kubler-Ross.

'Amnion is quite appropriate for Cabrini.' -Janet Lamont, director of Amnion The first objective of the organization is to take away the self-condemnation that most women feel, at one time or another, after the abortion. Lamont sees women coming in 20 years after the abortion, still in the grieving stage. Her goal is to help a woman through these grieving stages and to make her feel good about herself again. Abortion counsefo1g, however, is only one aspect of the organization. They are also actively involved with facilitating pregnancy tests, parent/sibling/boyfriend counseling, referrals to other agencies, and providing financial assistance.

Amnion is not to be confused with Planned Parenthood. Amnion stresses that their differences are: they provide an alternative to abortion, they have a non-profit motive, adoption referrals are made, and that they are a pro-woman bound organization, with a pro-life basis. Confidentiality is also guaranteed to all of their clients. College administration among those present at the meeting with Lamont last December were, Currie, Dr. Katherine Preston, director of the counseling center, and Susan Fitzgerald, RN. Preston said that Lamont seemed to be somewhat fundamental in the approach of her ministry. This would not be a healthy asset to the healing process, according to Preston. Preston said that Lamont was a very compassionate and sincere woman. However,she, personally, would not refer a student to the services offered by Amnion. She stresses the fact that the college's counseling:center is adequately equipped to deal with situations of this nature. Confidentiality is also a guarantee, Preston said. The editorial board of LOQUITUR has elected to run this advertisement in order to provide the students of Cabrini College with information and options that they may need to consider, when facing decisions such as this one.

976 numberscause havoc

by Paula Phillips In recent months the "976" numbers have become a hot topic of discussion with psychologists, journalists, parents, and teachers. What are the "976" numbers? Well if you have not heard they are numbers that people can call for such topics ranging from cooking, horoscopes, sports, mortage rates, lotto, joke, and pornography. According to Dave Sewell, external affairs of Bell of Pennslyvania, there are 300 existing ''976" numbers, in this state. Their prices range from 25 cents to six dollars a minute. Some messages are recorded but others are live. There are some

numbers that can even hold eight people on the line simultaneously. "The biggest misconception with these numbers is that the telephone company operates them. This is totally wrong. We are just a link to the caller and the recordin8," Sewell said.

Bell of Pennslyvania does not set the prices for these calls. The Public Utility Commission establishes the maximum price the companies can charge. After the commission establishes the price the private companies set the rate they want to charge. According to Sewell, Bell of Pennslyvania only receives a set proportion of the money that is charged. The telephone company receives 12 cents for the first minute and 6 cents for each additional minute of the recorded messages. On the live conversations it is 15 cents for the first minute and 10 cents for each additional minute. Asked if he knew of any outstanding bills Sewell replied, "I know of aladythathadabillof$2,000inPhiladelphia. Other bills range from a couple of dollars to several hundred and sometimes as the example I toid you of, a couple of thousand." Today there is a way of blocking these ''976" numbers. The customer

may call the telephone company and ask ¡ for these numbers to be blocked. According to Sewell this blockage is free for the first 60 days and after that there is a flat fee of $10. The most controversy over these numbers has been with the adult lines. The telephone company through a sequence of events has tried to satisfy their customers through checks and balances. .Bell of Pennslyvania recently proposed a plan that all taped and live adult numbers be changed to anew three digital code. Also no one will be able to access these lines unless there is written authorization. "Although we have proposed this plan it will not go into effect until we file tariffs through the Public Utility Commission. After the tariffs go through, there are sure to be delaysdue to privatecompaniestaking us to co~rt

complaining of violations ol their rights,"Sewellsaid. "If it evergoes into effect it willserve its purposewell."

their rooms with alcohol and do not cause commotion and disturbances, they will not be bothered by resident assistants. Moore said, "I could be drinking in my room with friends who are underage. AnRA would come in, and all the freshmen would put down their beers; but I know the RA. won't make a problem." Jason Starrs, senior, said, "It's just too much work to look for all the underage people." He also said that students can drink in their rooms without RA intervention as long as they don't go out in the hallway with a drink. SABIS (Stop Addiction Before it Starts) is a relatively new organization on campus, which is geared toward educating students about the effects of alcohol. With guidance from the Health Services department, Eileen McAlinney, program coordinator, hopes to bring a holistic message to students, i.e., she wants to educate students on how to recognize alcohol abuse as well as what to do in a situation in which someone has had too much to drink. A female, junior is involved with theSABIS program. She said, "My mother has been an alcoholic for the past 20 plus years ( and still is), and I'm afraid I drink too much." she added that she already knows that she drinks too much now. This junior still gets drunk once in awhile but she is determined to get help and not to be like her mother. Many students began drinking, or at least drank more often, when they got to college. They turn to alcohol because, as most students put it, they get, "stressed out." According to McAlinney, drinking is the easiest and least creative way to reduce stress. The same resident assistant said that partying gets worse around finals. Although most students would agree that campus drinking is not induced by peer pressure, they do agree that stress is a contributing factor. Others claim that they have to "sow their wild oats" by the time they're done school. Steve Pascali,. junior, said, "Some people's getting it out of their system is greater than other's." However, Pascall agreed that most people come out of that habit. For him, itwasjustamatter of maturing. Feeley added, "Alcohol isn't to be taken lightly, and sometimes, I wonder if it should be taken at all."

Jeanne Reineberg:

Active senior takes time out to play by Rachel Athelia Anderson

"Yes, Calgon, take me away," she said as she stared at the computer.

Her second home: two soft chairs, a sofa and the woodwork painted blue--sky blue. There's a file cabinet there, and a computer. The tiny stereo is whispering, "Get, get, get, get, on down ...get on down." This is where Jeanne Reineberg, senior, spends most of her time. It is her favorite spot especially now that it's all fixed up. "My room is real cramped," she said. Plus blue is her favorite color.

Person of the Week Reineberg probably mutters this statement often, especially with all that she is involved in. When asked about the activities that she participates in, she laughed. Then she pulled out a disk, booted the computer and said, "Wait, I think I have a list of them."

Reineberg has been a Resident Assistant for two years, sheis currently the Student Government Association's (SGA) corresponding secretary, the senior class social activities representative, a member of the Master Planning Committee, a member of the 30th Anniversary committee and a member of the library committee. She has also been elected to ''Who's Who Among American Colleges and Universities" and is a Dean's List student. The list was long. She was out of breath. "Joel and Angie, what else do I do?" she asked seriously. "I can tell you a lot of things that you do," Joel Zazyczny,junior, (SGA president) said jokingly. But then he got serious. "She works out three times a week and was

nominated for Outstanding Young Women of America." Suddenly out of the blue, "Oh-yea," Reineberg said, "I'm yearbook editor. I can't forget that." She stops to tend to some SGA private matters. Then she continues the list. She is a student teacher at Upper Merion, a member of the Pennsylvania State Education Association, and a member of the Council for Exceptional Children. What else is she? "A pain in the rear to Joel....but everyone else loves me," she said.

Oddly enough, although Reineberg is involved in innumerable activities, her date book is virtually blank. She says that she is too busy to write things down. But she is not too busy to tend to her homework. "It is not unusual for me to start my homework around 11:00 p.m." Well, where is this active woman from? "Hicksville, USA," Zazyczny said. Reineberg interjected immediately. "York Pa., home of the peppermint pattie ...get the sensation," she said naughtily. They bicker for a moment, as usual, but Reineberg is definitely not mad. "It takes a lot to get me mad. I mean really mad. Very few people have seen me really mad," she said. There is really no need for her to be mad. Reineberg has a philosophy that helps her avoid that feeling. She tries to make the most out of all of her days. Although she has many good days, as she laid across the sofa back, she couldn't pinpoint one "best" day. Zazyczny believes that her best day was the day she met him. Although Reineberg chuckled at that thought, she said that he is one of her best friends. She spends most of her time with him. "It's just by chance, I assure you," she said and smiled. There's no doubt that Reineberg is a busy woman, but she has her playful moments. When asked if she would jump on the table and do her chicken routine, she hollered with laughter. "Who told you about that?" Well, she refused to do it. "I have to have the appropriate table," she said.

Opinion:

Accomplishing the impossible by Kerry Gallagher "Let me start off by telling you that I have NEVER gotten a tan, even the slightest bit of a tan, in my entire life. I repeat, NEVER!" And so I warned Sue Williamson, manager of Tan-Line Sun Studios, upon my recent visit. "Can you guarantee me that I will get a tan here?" I asked. "Yes, I guarantee that you will get a tan here," she replied. "Will I see any change on the first try?" "Yes, you will see some color change the first day. You won't turn really dark on the first try because of your normally fair skin color. It will take about seven sessions for you to get a really deep tan. But, yes, I promise that you will get some color the first time." When I received my story assignment for this issue, I was very interested. I had always considered myself cursed with Irish skin. I have pure white skin and freckles. In the summer, I have red skin and freckles when I'm not turning green with envy when I see my friends' brown skin. While almost all of my friends bronze in thesun,Ifry. Myfamily trystoreassureme that I have a beautiful skin color. My mother tells me "freckles are kisses of God" and "Don't worry, Kerry, I didn't get a tan till after I had my first baby." I was worried. I pray nightly in the summer that God will accidentally forget that I am supposed to turn red, and throw some brown color on me, instead. Up until now I was tan only in my dreams. So, as I was starting to say, when I got the assignment on tanning salons, it was lwas a little weary likeadreamcometrue. about it at first. Having such fair skin, I am prone to skin cancer. (In fact, skin cancer runs in my family on my dad's side.) I thought, as many. do, that tanning salons were dangerous. I did a lot of research, read all the articles I could fmd on the subject (which surprisingly, weren't many in number): I read a release from the Skin Care Institute which claimed that tanning beds were "safer than the sun." I called the American Cancer Society. I called several local tanning salons and asked about their equipment and the risks involved. Finally, I questioned the manager of Tan-Line Sun Studios relentlessly. I decided to try it. The day I decided to go tanning was a freezing, rainy, day. The temperature was 15 degrees Fahrenheit, but the wind chill made it seem like 8 degrees.I threw on my bathing suit underneath my jeans, polo, and sweater,jumped into myChevette, and headed toward The Gateway Shopping ..Center, where the "sun" awaited my arrival. I found the building where Tan-Line is located. I climbed the stairs and walked past Devon Dental Center and Arthur Murray Dance Studio. I found Tan-Line's glass door on the right. I took a deep breath and walked in. The floor was green, the walls were bright yellow, and the two girls atthe desk had beach blonde hair and DEEP tans. I introduced myself to manager Sue Williamson and employee Karee Marcum. I told them I was there for my tan. I sat down and read the "tanning tips" in Tan-Line's brochure: Remove all make-up. Don't use body oils or lotions. (Tan-Line does sell indoor tanning lotions, but doesn't recommend use of anything with the slightest bit of sunscreen m it.) Remove all jewelry. Contact lenses should be removed. Do not use heavy perfumes while tanning. Do not sunbathe while taking photosensitive drugs. Finally, I was ready for my adventure. I signed the release form and announced I was ready. Williamson accompanied me to my private sunning room. I had chosen a tanning system called Sudden Sun. There tS only one Sudden Sun room at Tan-Line. Sudden Sun is a more intense

treatment than the other twelve beds at Tan-Line. It only does one side of your body at a time. The other twelve beds tan both sides at one time, but don't exhibit as strong of a light as Sudden Sun. The room is completely private. It is closed on all sides and the doors have locks 路 similar to the latches you see in fitting rooms. Sudden Sun looks like a normal . b~d. The bed had a fitted gold sheet on it with a Gumby beach towel on top of it. At t}le head of the bed is a box radio with headphones attached. There was a small oscillating fan in th~ corner. Williamson handed me a tray with the following goodies on it: 3 stick-on decals, a towei goggles, and a piece of candy. She showed me how to work the radio and said that earphones must be worn. Then, she sat down on the bed and showed me how the bed worked. The bed has an emergency on/off switch, a ventilation button you can depress anytime during your session, and a timer that makes the bed go off when it runs out. At last, she left the room and it was actually time for the adventure to begin. I locked the door, put down the tray, and undressed. I placed the heart sticker underneath my rightshoulder, and placed the bunny decal somewhere else. I sat down on the bed and set the timer for 30 minutes, which automatically turned on the bed. I quickly put on the goggles, as purple fluorescent light started to flash, and a vibrating noise echoed throughout the room. 路I laid back, reached for the headphones, and put them on. I bad planned to change the station to WMGK or some other soothing soft music, but was happy with the station that was on - WSNI. (Sunny. Get it?!) I laid down and got comfortable. The purple light had stopped flashing, and was replaced by a strong yellow light, which didn't seem too bright because I had goggles on. The vibrating noise had turned into a low hum, which didn't bother me either because I had the earphones on. The next 27 minutes were pure ecstasy. I closed my eyes and let my whole body relax. The heat warmed my body, yet it wasn't uncomfortably warm, as I had expected. I dreamt I was lying on a beach in the Bahamas. I dreamt I was actually getting tanned, and not burned. I silently agreed with Belinda Carlisle as she sang in my headphones, "Heaven is a Place on Earth." I must admit, about halfway through the session, I did become a little itchy on my stomach. (I asked about it afterward, but they said it wasn't unusual because of my fair, sensitive, skin.) It ended too soon. The30minuteswere up, it seemed, almost as soon as they had started. I got up, and checked out my new body but it was hard to tell right away. Besides, I had just taken off my goggles, so nothing looked the right color at first. I got dressed, looked back once, and left the tanning room. I thanked Williamson and made an appointment for my next visit. I left the salon, hurried to my car in the parking lot, and sped home. I ran up the stairs, flung my coat on the bed, and looked in my full-length mirror. It was there! I, Kerry M. Gallagher, was tan! There was a small white heart standing out against my pinkish-brownish skin underneath my right shoulder, right where I had peeled my heart decal! I was so excited! I rushed to school and flashed my "heart" to anyone who would take the two minutes out of their day to share in my excitement. Most people thought it was pretty neat. Some remarked that they didn't think it was that big of a deal. "God, Kerry! It's not like. you have some deep Hawaiian tropical tan," someone remarked. They didn't realize what a great milestone it was in my life. I came closer to that deep Hawaiian tropical tan than I ever have, or probably ever will,in my entire life!

Sometimes you wait for months, a year or even longer until your favorite band tours and you feel compelled to see them perform. Finally, the day of the concert arrives and you find yourself searching for the ticket you bought a month or two earlier. Time seems to move faster as you rush to get everything together and prepare to drive to the Spectrum. On Feb. 7, Yes returned to play an encore performance of their Nov. 29-30, 1987 sell out shows. The city of Philadelphia has made Yes feel welcome for many years and the enthusiasm of the audience was apparent. The stage was covered with fog as the light crew took their positions. The backround music be. came louder indicating the start of the show. Yes began the concert at 9:09 p.m., and they opened up with their new hit" The Rhythm of Love." The fans were standing on their sits for at least the first four songs. It was obvious that it was going to be a hot show for the band and the audience. Yes played. 16 songs from their vast repertoire. Some of the songs were from their most recent albums entitled: "Big Generator" and "90125," while other songs came from classic Yes albums such as "Yours is no Disgrace." The show also featured a drum and bass solo along with a guitar and piano duet along with a bass and vocal duet. All of the songs left the crowd standing on their feet yelling for more. Yes's current line up has three original members: Jon Anderson -vocals, keyboards; Tony Kaye -keyboards; Chris Squire- bass,vocals; and Alan White on drums. he bands newest member Trevor Rabin played guitar and vocals. The band has sucessfully joined their music and technology together to bring a unique brand of art to light. Yes played till 11:15 p.m.·amazing the audience with their light show and the arrangement of songs.

'Vaz' namedacademicAll-American by LaTonya Lucas During the National Catholic Basketball Tournament in Dubuque, Iowa, John Aivazoglou, senior, was awarded Academic All-American. Aiyazoglou was the first from Cabrini to receive this award from Dubuque. Aivazoglou started his basketball experiences at Cabrini during his freshman year, playing junior varsity. As a sophomore, he played varsity, but did not get much playing time. This experience led Aivazoglou to his current position. He is a part of the starting five and excels in shooting from the three point range. "Last week, I read in the Philadelphia Inquirer that I ranked in the top 20 nationally in the three point percentage," Aivazoglou said. Holding a 3.2 grade point average, Aivazoglou takes his education seriously. After graduation, he plans to attend law school. However, as an undergraduate political science and marketing major, he . takes great pride in Cabrini. Aivazoglou praises the teachers that he has had during his years at Cabrini. Brian Metz, assistant professor, business administration; James Hedtke, assistant professor, history and political science and Edward Christ, assistant professor, business administration are among his favorites and he labels them as very fine teachers. Aivazoglou feels that the teacher-student relationships are personal and the students get to know their teachers. "Friends of mine from larger universities tend to be alienated from their teachers," Aivazoglou said.

John Dzik, · head basketball coach, nominated Aivazoglou for the award. According to Dzik, the qualifications were a minimum grade point average of3.0, an upperclassman status and need criteria in terms of basketball skills. Aivazoglou met the requirements and when the tournament sponsors wrote and asked for nominations, Dzik nominated Aivazoglou. At the tournament, during halftime, Dzik told·Aivazoglou to be down on the floor at the end of the game because there was a possibility that he would be selected. "When the announcement was made John didn't realize he had been called because they had his first name as Jim and had butchered his last name so," Dzik said. As a 6'2"varsityplayer,Aivazoglou said that although he will always be associated with the game by playing in leagues or coaching, there is a very small possibility that he will play professioal ball. He wants to be an attorney.

Aivazoglou recalls that his best game this year was against Stockton State. "I took great pride in winninr, that game because Stockton finished fourth in Division 3," he said. Aivazoglou has goals to accomplish for his future and for the remainder of this semester. "My goal for the remainder of the season is to win every game and receive a Division 3 National Tournament invitation," he said. Aivazoglou, who considers himself a team leader, is very pleased with the team thisyear. The team is currently 15 and five and according to Aivazoglou, the fare on track to have another 20 win season. "In pre-season, everybody was predicting a terrible season " · Aivazogl.ou said. J{'"i:,:-,. /·f::{W'.'· ~

According to Aivazoglou, this was a great challenge to himself and the other se_niors: Jim Welde and Joe Anapolsky. Aivazoglou said that this year's team could be remembered as the team that keeps the basketball traditions at Cabrini alive and kicking.

Aivazoglou confesses that if had to do it all over again, he would do things exactly the same. "It's sad that it is coming to an end. I'll miss the road trips, because they were memorable ones. I will miss the trips to East Dubuque and definitely Kansas City," he said.

"Cabrini has been fun and I am very excited about graduating. I've put my time into it. It's a wonderful place to get an education," Aivazoglou said. Aivazoglou's attitude as a freshman was partying, not academics. He said that if he would have gone to a bigger school in the city, matters would have been worse. "Academics is most important and athletes at the intercollegiate level should remember that academics is what will make or break them in the future," he said. Along with Marko Gittens, sop horn ore, Aivazoglou made All-Tournament in Frostburg, Md. during the tip-off -tournament.

Firstmale on ·eheerleading squad by Lisa Brzezkki

Brave, determined, enthusiastic and hard working are just some of the words that characterize Cabrini's first male cheerleader, Brian Gould, freshman. Gould became interested in cheering for the Cavs when he visited the campus for a couple of days last year. "I spoke to some of the girls when I was up here for a few days and they told me they wanted male cheerleaders. I always thought it would be neat to be on a cheerleading squad," Gould said. When he returned to Cabrini, this time as a full-time history major, Gould expressed his interest in cheering once again and joined the squad. But, why? "Fun," Gould said. "I'm always looking to try new things and being on the cheerleading squad looked like a lot of fun," he said. Along with having fun, Gould provides the squad with a new look and added flexibility. "Having Brian on the squad really helps to improve our appearance," Jennifer Testa, freshman, co-captain, said. With the tremendous effort that Gould puts into cheering, the women are able to to do many new things. "Without him (Brian) we wouldn't be able to do all of the things we are doing now," Kris Castagna, sophomore, said.

"Brian is a great help to me and the · squad. His enthusiasm and willingness to try anything really keeps things moving smoothly," Bridget Howard, sophomore, captain, said. Along with a new feeling of excitement, the safety of the women has also been enhanced by Gould's presence. According to Howard, during lifts and the setting up of pyramids, the women are given a sense of security knowing that he is there to spot them. "Brian not only gives us mental and physical support, but also reassurance," Gheri Gorman, sophomore, said.

'I think most guys who may be interested in cheering tend to shy away from the idea because of peer pressure.' -Brian Gould, freshman While Gould opens a new door on campus, the reaction to his involvement with the cheerleading squad has been a positive one. "I thinkit'sagreatideabecauseitsbows growth in the college," Hillary Hoch, sophomore, said.

-Weldeearns respectof family, peers by Paula Phillips

"He's.a goodfellow;agentleman; a hard worker; a good student; a smart basketball player and a winner in whatever he does," Coach John Dzik said, referring to senior Jimmy Welde. If you ask students attending Cabrini whom Weldeisandwhathe is like, the words of Dzik seem to summarize the general consensus. Jim Donnelly,seniorandWelde's roommate, said, "He's the best friend you could possibly have. If something is bothering you, he never lets you stay down. He picks you up when you need it." "He is an all-around great guy. He has a great personality. He will do anything for you and he has his priorities straight," Meg Hagan, sophomore, said. "He's a very good friend. Anything I ever need he'll do for me," Scott Le Comte, junior, said. Marty McGonigle, junior, said, "He's a great person, a great friend and always in a good mood, especially in the morning." "He's a great guy. He's a great influence on and off the court," Alex Mairone, freshman and teammate, said. "I look for him for leadership," Jeff Barnes, freshman and teammate, said. "He's awesome!" Julie Snow, . sophomore, said. These are just a few of the people that Welde has touched and the image that be has left on them. Welde, the fifth of six children, was born to Adele and Frank Welde on August 19, 1966. Welde has three older brothers and two sisters, one of whom is younger. WeMe describes himself as "happy; easy-going; serious at times; good natured and very close to my family." Welde's father describes his son, "He's a very loyal person who isthe type to stay in the background not in the forefront. If I had to pick a son, it would be Jimmy. I wouldn't change a thing." "Jimmy is a great guy that I can . always talk to about anything. We always have an enjoyable time together because we both know how to enjoy life," Danny Welde, Welde's older brother, said. Welde's mother describes her son. "He'sverylovingand itwas a pleasure to raise him. I'i::. ~ad he is ours. He has made us proud and has given us a lot of enjoyment with his basketball playing."•

His family resides in Havertown, Pa. where he attended Annunciation B.V.M. where he started his bastketball career. Welde played basketball for the fifth and sixth grade and the seventh and eighth grade teams. He started all four years. Asked why he plays basketball, Welde said, "I enjoy it and also because I was breeded into a basketball family. There was a court down the street from my house. Afterschool,everyday, mybrothers and I would go play ball. It didn't matter what month it was. We were there 12 months a year." Welde continued his career at Monsignor Bonner High School in Drexel ~ill. He played for the ~.V. team his freshman year but for the next three he advanced to varsitywhere he started both his junior and senior year. Welde was an influential part of Bonner's varsity squad. He led his team to two Catholic league titles in 1983and 1984. "I was most happy for Jimmy when this happened. If anybody knows anything about the Catholic League, it is very difficult to repeat two years in a row," Frank Welde said. He then entered Cabrini in the fall of 1984. Why did he enter Cabrini? Welde said, "I visited the campus a couple of times while my brother, Danny '83, attended. I finallydecided to attend because I liked the campus, the people and I thought I would fit in well. I would also receive a good education. I also decided •'.l attend because I wanted to play basketball and the team was a success here." This year it is Welde's fourth year playing for Cabrini. He has started the last two as point guard. He bas been a part of a winning tradition in men's basketball for four years. He hasgonetoKansasCityforthe National Association of Intercollegiat Athletics (NAIA) championships for the past three years and also with his teammates have captured four Eastern States Athletic Conference (ESAC) titles, one of which was recently won this week against Allentown. Welde also wishes that the team this year will have a playoff birth in National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), division three playoffs. John Aivazoglou, senior and teammate of Welde's, said, "Jimmy on the court and off is basically a winner. He

recognizes what it takes to win and does it. On the court he recognizes defensivesand offensivesvery well. He makes good decisions on what has to be done to win. He is one of the most unselfish players I have had the pleasure to play with. The only other player that closely resembles him is Pat Nolen, who graduated in 1986." "He's a great leader. He's like a second coach--a coach on the floor," Jason Yurchak, freshman and teammmate, said. Dzik, referring to Welde, said,"There is no doubtthat he is the leader of our team." "He runs the plays, hustles and most of he's a leader," Mairone said. "I have had the opportunity to meet a lot of people, made ii lot of good friendships and I have grown as a person. It has also made me learn to be responsible, to have good time management and it has given me good leadership qualities," Welde said, referring to basketball. According to Welde, his best moment of his basketball career at Cabrini " was my freshman year, we beat St. Thomas Aquinas from New York. They were ranked in the top 20 in NAIA across the country. They hadn't lost on their home court in fiveyears. We were not even ranked. They were suppose to cream us. We took them to double overtime where we beat them by one or two points." Welde majors in business with a concentration in finance. He also is working towards a minor in marketing. He

holds an internship at the Associated Rehabilitation Consultants in Wayne. After graduation, Welde intends ongettingajob and then attend Villanova graduate school to achieve his masters in finance. In 10 to 20 years, Welde envisions himself, "married with a couple of children, a house in the suburbs, a good job and a coaching position on high school or college level." Asked if he would like to coach at Cabrini, "Of course!" be said. What was his best moment at Cabrini as a student? Welde said, "My best moment bas not arrived yet. It will be on the day I graduate when all four years of hard work will accumulate." Reflecting on his years at Cabrini, Welde said, "I would like to thank all the coaches and the different players I have played with for all the wins,the championships and the good times. I also would like to thank my friends for the good times and memories I will never forget. Most importantly I would like to .thank my family for all the support they have given me throughout the years and letting me be my own person." "He's just agreatguy. He'sgoing to do well in life," Aivazoglou said. "You can just look at Jim and say to yourself 'that guy is going to be successful,"' Danny Welde, speaking of his younger brother, said.

The 1988 Winter ..

.

The History It wasn't until1924 that the first full-scale gathering of snow and ice sports which so overshadowed the 1936 Summer Winter Olympics were stag~d. The events had little backing until until the Chamonix Games in Berlin, could cast a cloud over games were a smashing success. were in Chamonix, France. · the '36 Winter_ Olympics in Germany. The festive celebrations from The first Winter Games drew306 When the games returned to St. athletes from 16 ,!lations and included just Chamonix in 1924 have been carried five sports - hockey, figure skating, bob- everywhere else the winter carnival has Moritz in 1948 after a 12-year absence, sledding, skiing, and speed skating. By traveled in the last 64 years. From 1928 in there was a great celebration again. Alcontrast, the Summer Games had grown St. Moritz, Switzerland to 1932 in Lake though the Olympic Games might have so rapidly that the '24 Olympics in Paris Placid, New York (and there again in been on hold, the Olympic Spirit never actually drew 3,385 competitors from 45 1980), to 1936 in Garmisch-Parten- wavered. countries. · m:c~en, the Winter Olympics have been a ' For many Americans, the addiSkiing had been a demonstration . shmmg example ofall that is right in sports. tionofthe soviets in the Olympic commusport in earlier Olympics, but the idea of a Not even the specter of Nazi Germany, nity has provided an opportunity for

cultural exchange that would never have been permitted or possible in the other circles. This, once again, is the objective that Baron Pierre de Coubertin, founder of the modern Olympics, sought. This year, another mark will be made in the history of the Winter Olympics. The Calgary Games will be the longest Winter Olympics ever. For the first time, the the Winter Games will cover 16 days. Previously, the Winter Games have been completed in twelve days.

Calgary Landmarks The City Calgary is a city of 640,000located in Southern Alberta. Perched on the western edge of Canada's vast plains, it is a major agricultural and oil center. About an hour west of the city, via the Trans-Canada Highway, are the Canadian Rockies, where the alpine and most of the Nordic events will take place.

Canmore Nordic Centre All cross country skiing, nordic combined skiing and biathlon events will be held at the Canmore Nordic Centre which is located near Banff. This state-ofthe-art center was built specifically for the Winter Games.

Canada Olympic Park In close proximity to downtown Calgary, the Canada Olympic Park will host ski jumping, nordic combined Gumping), bobsled, and luge events.

Nakiska at Mt. Allan

Olympic Saddledome

Situated less than one hour west of Calgary, Nakiska at Mount Allan will be the site of all alpine skiing events. This Olympic Venue is gearing up to be a major recreational facility after the Winter Games.

Figure skating competitions and ice hockey matches wil take place at the Olympic Saddledome. This arena is uniquely designed to provide all spectators with an unobstructed view of the events.

Chinook Winds Weather may play a major role in the Games this year.. While the Calgary area enjoys plenty of below-freezing winter days, warm breezes, known as the Chinook Winds, can unexpectedly blow in across the Rockies from the West Coast. With mighty gusts, strong enough to knock over campers, and temperature rises of 40 degrees, the Chinooks could disrupt events if they arrive at the wrong time.

Brian Boitano

What the world is most anxious to witness is Brian Boitano's quadruple jump, a feat never accomplished in competition. If he succeeds, it may be just enough to out maneuver his closest rival, Canada's Brian Orser, for a gold medal. Boitano began roller skating when he was four and a half, but it was not until he saw the Ice Follies at age nine that he was inspired to take to the ice. Within a year he was competing, and now, nearly 14 years later, he is an Olympic gold-medal hopeful. Along with his gold-medal aspirations, Boitano will be bringing a new free-skate program to Calgary. A powerful routine performed to the music of "Napoleon."

Bonnie Blair Bonnie Blair was born to skate. The day she was delivered, 23 years ago, her father was timing a speed-skating meet. The youngest of six Blairs, a family of skaters from Champaign, Illinois, Bonnie put on her first pair of hand-medowns at age two. Bonnie and the rest of the Blair brood were all fast enough to compete nationally, but Bonnie was the fastest of the lot. She was just 15 when she entered the 1980 Olympic trials. Blair didn't make the team, but she was amember of the 1984 squad at Sarajevo, where she finished eighth in the 500-meter sprint. Blair has been pondering life after Calgary. She may hang her skates up and go back to cor.ege for a degree in Physical Education. She would also like to carry on the family tradition. Considering the fact that her boyfriend is speed skater, Dave Silk, also a member of the 1988 Olympic team, the world may yet see another generation of Blair offspring vying for gold mell:ils.

Nick Thometz He hates his real first name, Keith, so he calls himself Nick. He also hates the nickname he acquired in speedskating circles, Mr. Fourth, for consistentlyskatingjustoutof the money. So he set new world records in the 500- and 1000meter events last year. At Calgary, Thometz has a good chance of being named "Number One" in the sprints. Since Nick is the man to beat in the Olympics, Thometz is considering his future. This includes returning to the University of Minnesota where he is a finance major. For the moment, however, Thometz is intent on skating his way to the topand, along the way, relegating Mr. Fourth to oblivion.

Beginning with 1994, there will be an Olympics every two years - the Summer and Winter Games will alternate. One reason Albertville was chosen was the success a small town called Lake Placid in 1980. However, the main factor was a surge of support from Western European nations to get the Olympics back to the area for the first time since 1976. The French put on one of the best shows any Winter Olympics has seen when they hosted the 1968 events at Grenoble. There was much support among International Olympic Committee members for having the French host another Winter Olympics.

Cabrini vs. Allentown

Men take 'noisy' victory Lady Cavs lose by two by Joho Dunleavy by Jenni Obrecht

Tuesday night, Feb. 9 at Allentown College was declared "let's ~ake noise night" against Cabrini. However, when all was said and done, it was Cabrini that was making all the noise, walking away with a sound 75-67 victory. "Allentown is a tough place to play at. It's always difficult playing up there, but with noise night it was even harder." Cabrini's John Dzik, head coach, said. ,

In fact, according to Dzilc, Cabrini has been in Eastern States Athletic Conference (ESAC) competition for the past four years and in that time, have only lost three regular season games. Two of those losses have come this year, but before this season they had only lost one game, that coming at Allentown. · ·. Aware of the difficult task of playing on the road, Dzilcsaid he motivated his players by reminding them that a victorywould ensure the Cavs of the home-court advantage in the _playoffs. With this goal in mind, Cabrini's John Aivazoglou, senior, rose to the occasion by getting his team off to a fast start with some early three point bombs. Aivazoglou finished the contest with a game-high 23 points. Teammate Jim Welde, senior, chipped in with 14 for the Cavs. Asked to evaluate his team to this point in time, Dzilc said, "We are already much further along than we expected to be. We've worked hard and have had a little luck along the way." Dzik said that next to the first team he ever coached at Cabrini eight years ago, this has been the most fun because of what the team has achieved in outdoing expectations. He also added that the players have been a coachable group because they have listened well to instructions. "People in the Conference, ex-players, and alumni kind of wrote our team off, including the coaches. We felt this was a rebuilding year. To think that we can get 20 wins and are in the Conference playoffs. I'm ecstatic to be talking about these things today," Dzik said. • Cabrini's victory over Allentown improved their overall record to 16-5, while dropping the Centaurs to 8-14. The playoff picture looks like this. On Friday night, Feb.19, there will be a doubleheader at Cabrini. In the first game Allentown will pair off against Spring Garden. The night cap will feature Cabrini hosting Lincoln. The winners of these games will then play on Saturday, Feb.20, for the Norlhern championship. The survivor earns the right to play in the Conference championship against the Southern champion on Feb.27. If Cabrini is the Northern victor, they wilI also · host the Conference championship.

The Lady Cavaliers travelled to Allentown College to face the number one ranked Centaurs on Tuesday, Feb. 9. Despite Cabrini's strong defense, Allentown edged the team by a score of 52 to 50. The Lady Cavs got off to a good start, taking an early six point lead. Cabrini held the lead over Al!entown a! -~alf-time with a score of 25-22. According to Meg Hagan, sophomore~ 1twas Cabnru s strong defense that kept them in the game. "Allentown is a team which averages 72 points a game and our defense held them to 52 points " she said. '

'We just let them know we were there. Next Friday (playoffs) is the important game, and I'm sure we're going to win' · -Dan Welde, head coach, Lady Cavs However, Cabrini struggled on the offensive end of the court, shooting only 4-15 (29%) from the free-throw line. In spite of the poor free-throw shooting, three Lady Cavs placed in double figures. High scorer for Cabrini was Donna Aiello, sophomore, who scored 13 points. Other double-figure scorers for the Lady Cavs, were Christi Courseault, sophomore, with 12 points, and Hagan, with 11 points. One setback was in trying to overcome foul trouble. "Sue Evich fouled out with six minutes left, and that really hurt us," Hagan said. Evich, senior, is closing in on 1,000 points. She needs to average just over 10 points a game to reach this milestone, and she has a shot at it with seven games remaining in the season. Coach Dan Welde is not disheartened by this loss. "We just let them know we were there. Next Friday is the important game, and I'm sure we're going to win," be said. Welde is referring to the upcoming showdown at Allentown in the playoffs next week. The February 19 doubleheader pits Sring Garden against Marywood. Cabrini faces Allentown in the following game. The winners of each game will then play on Saturday, Feb. 20 for the Northern division Eastern States Athletic Conference (ESAC) championship. The survivor of that game would then play the Southern division champs. Therefore, Cabrini must win two games to become Northern division champs. Thi:; would then permit them to advance to the finals against the winner of the Southern division.
