Cabrini participatesin National Collegiate Alcohol Awareness Week by Caroline Croley staff writer

On Tuesday evening, a group of students was hanging out in a dorm · kin g. The s tude nts all conroom d no sumed a decent amount of alcohol. While playing the game Truth or Dare, the party got out of hand. Someone passed ou t from.drinking excessively. Not only did he pass out, he was unconscious. His friends got scared and did the logica l thing. They cal led the resident assistant (RA), who arrive d immediate ly. Short ly afterwa rds the med ical assistant (MA) was at the scene. The MA checked vital signs and did firs t aid. This did not help.

According to Eileen McAlinney , a national statistic states that more students will spend money on alcohol this year than they will on their books . The po int of Alcohol Awareness Week is to inform people on these issues and ho w they affect their lives.

E_d_ito_r_ia_l ______ ___.I I Viewpoint Outbursts Of vandalism, Prejudicial views abolished violence shock campus through Philly AIDS walk .___I

An outbreak of vandalism and violence has been plaguing our campus. Vandalism and violence do not just damage one particular wall, lamp post or individual. They hurt everyone. We all pay in the end. From Aug. 29 to Oct. 13, 35 incidents of vandalism were reported by physical plant. On Oct. 14, the fire ·alarm in Xavier was set off three times, twice by smoke detectors and once by a fire pull station. On Oct. 8, according to the Main Line Times, 25 Cabrini students reportedly beat up two visitors to the campus. Students who have information about these crimes should step forward. There are two categories of students with responsibilities to the college: those who have committed the crimes and those who have witnessed them. Withholding information is almost as damaging as the actual crime. The 35 acts of vandalism have totaled at least $3,420 in damages. That is a hefty bill for only seven weeks of school. Damages done in a particular residence hall are paid through the room deposits of those who live there. Any vandalism committed in public areas is compensated through the general fund. The cycle of vandalism and violence does not end after the acts have taken place. Blatant vandalism was evident during ]ast weekend's Open House. What message are we sending to our prospective students? As for the current students, why deface the very institution you are paying money to attend? Before complaining about the price of college, consider that vandalism increases the unnecessary costs we pay out of our own pockets. Acts of vandalism and violence are thoughtiess. If you are bold enough to commit a crime, you better have the courage to face the consequences. And if you witness a crime and keep quiet, you are just as guilty. 'Fess up, and stand out from the cowards.

On Sunday, Oct. 17, approximatley 20 Cabrini students participated in the seventh annual Philadelphia AIDS walk. Our students raised over $300 for.AIDS research and helped break stereotypes of AIDS victims. Many Xavier students suffered from a loss of sleep on Thursday, Oct. 14, due to the annoyance of piercing fire alarms. Three occurrences were reported throughout the evening. Half-dressed students scurried outside while the problem was corrected. The disturbance still seems to be a mystery to the residents. Seiler's reveled in Phillies Phever as they decorated the cafeteria in red and white balloons. Soft pretzels and peanuts were available for students to enjoy. Let's hope this phantastic display of support helps the Phillies obtain the championship.

[letters Help prevent the possible extinction of Mr. MAC To the Editor: This letter serves the-sole purpose of informing students that the MAC machine, located in the Widener Center lobby, is being removed in early November. The MAC machine is here for students, as well as faculty and employees, to allow access to cash quickly . Bryn Mawr Trust is removing the MAC because the'y are making no profit. In order to keep the MAC machine, the Student Government Association has been informed that we must come up with approximately $2,000. The rest of the cost will be handled by Cabrini. Should we do it? Should Student Government have a fundraiser in order to raise this money? Is this machine important to anyone? We would like to hear from you. I know I want this device to remain. Mr. MAC is my dear friend, and I wouldn't want to see him be taken away. If MAC is kidnapped, so is the · cash flow, and we can' t have that. Please, if this boils your blood, leave anote voicing your opinion in the SGA office. There is also another option. You can also write a brief letter to the editor as I have done.

House five television abducted by vandals; residents demand justice To the Editor: The residents of house five have lost a close and dear friend. Our lobby television was stolen recently, and the thief of hearts has not been apprehended. Our lobby TV was often utilized, even though it didn't supply us the promised cable stations. We have been asked by a sign to find out who did it. Hey , all they have to do is put it back! Come on. We doubt anybody in our house would succumb to some fool's pressures in a plot to steal our TV. We are pretty sure we would go to another house ifwe wanted a TV that we wouldn ' t have to pay for. We pay for enough holes in the wall and other consequences of outsiders' actions than wishing to tack on who knows how much for a TV. We can see ourselves walking in somebody's room in our hous e saying, "Hey that TV looks a lot like the one that we had in the lobby. " It seems to be the fault of the resident life. They are the ones who put TVs out in the lobby in the first place. All the other houses on this campus had the logic of a working alarm hooked up to their TVs. We would not have left a TV in the lobby with no alarm unattended. Therefore, resident life sho uld come up with their crazy dollar amount and pay for their own mistakes. The residents of house fiv~ have been defrauded and betrayed enough by the administering officials in the resident life department.

Ask

Roxy Dear Roxy, My problem involves this girl that I dated briefly last semester. I was really falling in love with her and had even thought of proposing to her in the future, but then we suddenly broke up. I'm not even sure why, but as I have been known to do when I am hurt, I just ignored it. I spent my whole summer thinking about her, and I figured that when school started this fall, I would tell her that I was in Jove with her and try to patch things up. I was surprised to find out that she was engaged! We had only been broken up for a few months, and I had never expected that she would be getting married to someone so fast. So. many of her friends think that she is rushing into this marriage, and they also think that we make a much better match, but no one is about to tell her this. My problem is, do I tell her that she is the only girl that I have ever loved AND THAT I really want another shot at making her happy, or do I bow out gracefully and keep my mouth shut - even though I think she would be better off with me? I know I can't offer her as much as the other guy right now, but I don't even want to think about spending the rest of my life without her in it. What should I do? Lovesick for the Bride Dear Lovesick, I think, for your own sanity, you need to go to this girl and tell her how you feel. If you don ' t, you will probably spend the rest of your life wondering what would have happened if you did. However, you must realize one thing before you do this. Don't expect her to dump her fiance and run back into your arms just because you tell her your feelings. She seems like she has made an effort to move on with her life and may be perfectly happy right now. It will probably be one of the hardest things you will do in your life, but if it makes her see that you really love her and want to try, and if she still has feelings left for you, things may just work out. But you definitely have to give it a shot.

FEATURES the right thing at the time doesn 't mean that after the party's over, and you have a chance to realize what you did you '11be happy about it. I'm not saying lock yourself in your room and never go to a party or talk to anyone. What I'm saying is think about the ramifications of your actions before you do anything. Second! y, who cares what kind of phone they have in the library as long as it works? If you need to leave a number on a beeper, walk over to Sacred Heart Hall and use the touch tone phone there. And as far as the smegma goes, it's just one of those things that comes from. old paint and dirt and grunge building up over the years. Feel free to ask them if you can try to clean it off if the mood hits you. Dear Roxy, I feel kind of stupid writing this letter but I don't really know who to ask. Do guys really need to have a "release" when they get all hot and bothered? I mean I feel really bad about it, because I don't think I'm ready for that kind of intimacy, but he says that it damages him if he doesn't. Is that true? Am I doing him some kind of harm? I feel real! y guilty about it. I mean I really like him and I want to continue to see him, but I think he is getting impatient with me. What should I do? Confused and Upset Dear Confused, Unfortunately, I do not think your situation is a unique one. Let me try to shed some light on the subject. Contrary to popular belief, you are not damaging your boyfriend because he is not "releasing. " It may be a bit uncomfortable for him but there is no irreversible damage being done. It sounds like he is pressuring you into something you really are not ready for and that's not fair. He is only interested in his happiness and is netconsidering yours.

sGA funds .

Cabrini'sclubs by Caroline Croley

Student officers from many clubs and organizations on campus met with Senior Kevin Ohlandt, treasurer of SGA, on Oct. 12 and Oct. 14. Ohlandt met with these representatives to discuss possible budget planning and how the money that is allocated by SGA will be divided among the organizations throughout the semester, as well as the remainder of the year. According to Ohlandt, clubs and organizations are required to attend the budget hearing meetings with a formal constitution, a list of officers and adv isers and a proposal that includes activities, speakers and fund raisers for the year. If officers are unable to attend the scheduled meetings, they must write a note and send it to Ohlandt with an explanation of why they were absent, an d t h ey must sc h e d u 1e ano th er mee t"mg with the committee. This note must be wr1"tten and turned 1·nw1"th1"n24 hours of the scheduled meeting.

it then goes into a college ac~ount. DeFruscio said, "The college account procedure has always been in the constitution. However, in the past, only some clubs had agencies with the college." Ohland! added, "This year the procedure is being enforced for all clubs and organizations on campus." In order to use this money, club officers must fill out necessary forms at the business office. This enables them to write checks and pay bills. It keeps both the college and the club on track. By doing this, clubs will be more efficient with bookkeeping, and it helps when there is an audit. Ohlandt said, "When the money is not used, it carries over to the club's account for the· next semester." He added, "As Jong as· clubs remain active with SGA and follow the guidelines given to them at the budget hearing meeting, clubs will not lose their money."

The Peace Pole, which was dedicated to former Cabrini President Sr. Eileen Currie in 1992, was ripped out of its place in the Peace Garden on Oct. 9. The Pole was recovered, but the vandals were not caught. According to Director of Physical Plant Michael Caranfa, the pole will not be displayed again until after Halloween.

Mischiefand. violencedetailed by Steve May co-news editor

Recently Cabrini has been hit by a rash of violence , vandalism and mischief. These inci-

dents have caused several rumors that are prob· ably unfounded. In an effort to clear up some of those rumors, here is the full report on "the big stories."

The Fight Perhaps the largest and most talked about incident was the fight that took place on Oct. 8 outside Dixon House. According to Director of Public Safety Richard Kralle, the incident began when three males from.off-campus came to visit a female student in Xavier Hall. They were asked to leave around 2:45 a.m. after they became loud. They left and found that their car had been vandalized. Kralle said nothing more was heard from them until about 4 a.m. when Public Safety Officer Marsha Hayes saw a large number of males running toward Dixon House. Officers Louis Welsch and John Allen were called in for back-up. Upon investigating, they found two of the visitors injured and one of the visiting

"I'd prefer for someone to let me know who did it and for the TV to show back up in the house." . Kralle said he is not involved with the TV incident but agrees that students should step forward. He said that his investigation is bogged down because no one will give him the information on the recent events to help with the investigations. Kralle said he cannot act on any leads until he gets the names on people involved. Kralle said he had strong feelings that students should take action. "After all," Kralle said, "it's their community ."

staff writer nals. Josef Beranek, a 23 year-old What a "hot" week it was. Phillies Phever has not reached temperatures this high in 10 years. The 90th World series was where, according to rumors, the "misfit" Phillies found their fit. They earned a spot opposite the Toronto Blue Jays on Oct. 13, with a 6-3 victory over the Atlanta Braves. The first game of the World Series, played on Oct. 16, resulted in · an 8-5 Blue Jays victory. The Philllies held the lead after batting in the first, third and fifth innings. However, Phillies fans clung to the edge of their seats as the Blue Jays took flight in the sixth inning. The sixth, a grinder of an inning, ended with John Kruk striking out with the bases loaded. The Most Valuable Player in the .National League Championship Series, Curt Schilling, was not so valuable when Toronto gained seven runs off him. He exited in the seventh and was replaced by David West. West then faced two hitters, both of whom got hits. In other sports, the Flyers were off to a strong 5-1 start Oct. 16, as they defeated the New York Rangers, 4-3. The last time the Flyers had a 5-1 start, they pounded their

Eric Lindros scored his fifth of the season and Mark Recchi also scored for the Flyers against the Rangers. The major highlight in college football occurred Saturday, Oct. 16, when Penn State was defeated, 2113, by the Michigan Wolverines, at Beaver Stadium. A record crowd of 96, 719 attended the game. Penn State had control in the first half of the game, but was brought down by two big plays which involved an offside penalty on a field goal, and a goalline stand by the Michigan defense. Many mistakes were made by Penn State, which eventually cost them the game. As a result of this game, the Nittany Lions are 5-1 overall and 21 in the Big Ten. In pro football, the Philadelphia Eagles went at it on Oct. 17 against the New York Giants. Both teams entered the game with records of 41. The Giants prevailed with a 2110 victory. The Eagles may have had their mind on the trade deadline, which

Last Sunday, these two teams were battling again. Following their 26-17 victory, the Cowboys can lay claim to superiority in the NFC. They are now 4-2. When it come to professional basketball player Charles Barkley, it does not matter if it is the preseason or not, he will still make nationaf headlines. It was not a result of his many interviews promoting the opening of the McDonald's Tournament in Munich, Germany, or his collapsing on the court. No, Barkley expressed how he will leave the NBA as soon as he reaches his desired goal of winning the NBA title and will end his career on an all-time high. This came only eight days after Jordan's retirement. The first weekend of the preseason heats up Friday, Oct. 22. On the local scene, a spectacular annual event took place the weekend of Oct. 15 through Oct. 17 at Radnor Hunt in Malvern. Many may not consider horse events to be a sport, but underneath the saddle of grace and prestige lies a sport of popular tradition. The Radnor Hunt

It was early in the morning Saturday, Oct. 16, when the Lady Cavs played the first game of the tournament. They were full of energy and vigor, and as a result won their first two games against Harcum, 15-7 and 15-5. Although both teams served well, the Lady Cavs passed and spiked well. They also were far more enthu-

better in the second game. Harcum did not start to play well until late in the tournament and came in third in their pool. The Lady Cavs did not play during the next round . Marywood and Del. ·Tech both won a number of games and went into the final round to decide who would go in the semifinals. Del Tech and Marywood both served by having one person serve while the others stood in a comer. As the ball went over, the teammates spread out. Ordinarily, the players stand in the front and back, while one person serves. This unique method seemed to work, since Del. Tech was number one in their pool, and Marywood was second in theirs. In the third game of the tournament, the Lady Cavs played two games against Wilson and won, 158 and 15-12. Wilson served and passed well, coming close to winning the second game.

Lady Cavs dominateEastern,9-0 by Catherine Smotherman staff wnter

Take a rest from hard ball phever and check out some hard court action this weekend when Cabrini and Eastern College co-host the 1993 Pennsylvania Athletic Confernce women's tennis cham: pionship. Play starts Friday at noon and Saturday at 9 a.m. Cabrini. with the third best record of the eight conference teams, expects to do well. There will be three rounds of play. The first two rounds of singles and one round of doubles will he held Friday at five locations. including Cabrini and Eastern. Saturday all games are at Cabrini and Eastern, with most of the higher level games at Cabrini. Reggie Day, tennis coach, expects the championship to be a three-way race between Cabrini, Rosemont College and Marywood College. Day said, "We're on a roll. We've won our last two matches, three of our last four matches. We have back-to-back 9-0 conference victories." Though Cabrini lost to Rosemont and Marywood earlier in the season, both losses were excruciatingly close. He said Rosemont is the team to beat. They have the defending conference champion at No . 1 singles. In collegiate tennis, players are ranked according to their skill. The top six players play singles matches against correspondingly ranked players on other teams. Usually these six players also make up the three doubles teams. The doubles teams are a o Hnked and pla only other doubles teams at the same rank .

The records of the top six Cabrini singles players are: #1 Maryanne Walker - senior 85 overall, 6-1 PAC #2 Kim Scarborough - sophomore 5-5 overall, 6-1 PAC #3 Suzanne Stephano -junior 94 overall. 7-0 PAC #4 Donna Schaeffer . - first-year 8-4 overall, 5-2 PAC . #5 Stephanie Cassinelli - first-year 7-6 overall, 4-3 PAC #6 Julie Wolen - first-year 53 overall, 4-1 PAC First-year student Michaelle Mcilvaine also played several singles matches this year earning a 2-2 rec9rd. Rounding out the team are first-year students Lisa Watson and Laura Paparone and sophomore Maura Wiswall.

Only three players returned from last year, but all team members played on their high school teams. Day said, "What we lack in experience we make up in hustle. This team has one of the best overall attitudes of any team I've coached." This is Day's sixth year at Cabrini, and he- ha fiv traigh winning women's tennis seasons behind him.

The admissions office also helps in the recruiting effort. The men's and women's teams have separate seasons because it is traditional at many schools and allows the teams to share use of the facilities. Day said Cabrini's facilities are good, and most visiting teams are impressed with the setting. The team holds a grueling camp each summer the week before school begins. The daily schedule is a gut-wrenching

alternation between sustenance and exercise. They start at 7 a.m. with a twomile run. Then the players eat breakfast, hit the courts for drills and conditioning work from 9 a.m. 'til 11:30. They eat lunch, get back out on the courts from 1 p.m. 'til 4:30. They eat supper and then play challenge matches. It is the challenge matches that determine the team rankings. During the school year the team practices about two and a half hours every weekday that they do not have a match.

Junior Mike Tims, co-capta in of the soccer team, Octobe r's Athlete of the Month.

The shadows of late afternoon danced upon the soccer field. Laughter could be heard coming from this field all the· way up to Grace Hall. Before the young men who make up Cabrini's soccer team could even be seen, they could be heard, yelling en couragem~nt as well as jeers at one another. When the team was finally visible, there was something missing, Mike Tims. Tims, junior and co-captain of the soccer team, was not participating in the scrimmage with the rest of his team. Tims was sittin-g the practice otit because of sore hips. He wanted to be well-rested for the upcoming game against Eastern. ''Mike would have to be my pick for athlete of the month," Duncan Hubley, head soccer coach, said. " He is the best player we have." Even though Tims could not fully participate in practice , he was still there. Tims sat on the side lines yelling to the others, encouraging them in their offensive drives as well as their defensive defeats. "No one can take the ball off him when he traps it," Hubley said. "When he dribbles, it ' s a little different story." Hubley showed confidence in Tims' ability to stay calm under pressure, saying he had the ability to control the flow of the game. Tims is not only a soccer player. He also plays junior varsity basketball and is executive board presidentof the stu -

dent government association (SGA). Tims credited a lot of his ability to the fact that he plays year-round. When he is at home, he plays for his local club team, FC united. He said club ball is "way more physical," and the players have more experience do to the fact that they are older. Tims believes that strength plays a major role in soccer. ·'Jf you· re stronger than the guy on your back, it makes it easier to trap the ball, " Tims said. "Sometimes we have mental break downs ori the field ,'" he said. ''I try to keep the players up in the locker room and on the field.': Tims went onto say that he felt the team ' s record did not properly show how well the team has been playing. "Seven out of the nine losses, we were winninguntiltheveryend ," Timssaid. "We tend to self-destruct. " Jim Martin, first -year student, said, "Mike is a good guy. He treats everyone pretty cool. He always invites us to hang out down his house and stuff like that." When it came to Tims' game , Martin was just as positive in his description. "He controls the game for us," Martin said. "He is the centerpiece of the team. " Senior Dan Bradley said, "He plays like a point guard would for a basketball team." Bradley went onto say that Tims' skills, both on defense and offense, make the difference in the Cavs' favor a lot of the time. "Tims' work ethic on the field is really good," Bradley said. . "Tims is just a better player," said Hubley. "He is the best player we have."
