Walik Scores Two Touchdowns As Cats 

Edee V.M.L 19-13 For Second Victory 

Harriers Romp Over 

Runs 41 And 25 Yds. 

By CHARLIE FINOCCHIARO 

A balanced offense and a strong 

defense helped the Wildcats to gain 

their initial road victory of the year 

this past weekend. The Villanova 

squad) playing before a Parents 

Weekend crowd in Lexington, Virginia, 

defeated the Keydets of Vir- 

ginia Military Institute, 19 to - 13, 

in a hard hitting and well executed 

';game. 

The Wildcats dominated the first 

three quarters of play, going ahead 

V 19 to on two touchdown bursts 

by halfback Bill Walik and a strong 

' 

sprintout-type TD jaunt by QB 

• Sodaski 

, in 

Jfohn Sodaski. ^ :^ 

The first Villanova score came 

the second quarter on a fault- 

.. lessly executed off-tackle run by 

Walik. Walik, starting at the 

j VMI 41 yard line, slanted through 

.a huge gap off left tackle behind 

the blocking of pulling guard Clark 

Mester's block on VMI 

safety Paul Fraim enabled Walik 

to break loose for the score. Wally 

Decia added the extra point, and 

VU took the lead 7 to 0. Walik 

scored next in the third quarter on 

an inside reverse from the VMI 

. Mester, 

. Kaydet 

' the 

21, again through the left tackle 

spot manned by soph Joe Cervini. 

halfback John Ludt foiled 

the Villanova attempt for the extra 

point by clocking Wally De- 

cia's kick. 

Scores 

Thp final Wildcat score came 

with just 9 seconds left in the 

third quarter. QB Sodaski took 

the snap and carried around right 

end on one of his patented touchdown 

jaunts, knocking a VMI defender, 

who attempted to stop him 

at the two yard line, back into the 

end zone. The Cats' extra point 

attempt was again blocked by Ludt, 

so the score stood at 19 to at 

end of three quarters of play. 

However, the spirited Keydets, 

who play only two games at home 

this season were determined to 

give their overly enthusiastic home 

crowd, which included Governor 

Godwin of Virginia, a game to remember. 

The VMI offense finally 

got rolling on a 69 yard pass from 

QB Bob Echols to fullback Chuck 

Marks, who outran the Wildcat 

linebacker assigned to cover him, 

only to be brought down by quick 

pursuing Villanova halfbacks Mike 

Altenberger and Gene Arthur at 

the Wildcat 5 yard line. After 

three futile attempts to breech 

the Wildcat defensive front, Key- 

det wingback Tommy Sowers finally 

scored on fourth down. Echols 

run for a two point conversion was 

stopped, and the score stood at 19 

to 6. A little over a minute later. 

Sowers scored again, this time 

on a 49 yard pass from Echols. 

Chuck Marks kiked the extra point 

and the score stood at 19 to 13, 

The Wildcats then exercised the 

same ball control type offense with 

which they dominated the first 

three quarters of play, and ran out 

the clock to gain their second 

straight victory. 

Cats Dominate 

Although the closeness of the 

score may make those who were not 

present at the game think otherwise, 

the Wildcats actually dominated 

the major portion of the game 

through well executed ball control, 

highlighted by the passing of John 

Sodaski and the running of Walik 

and CO- captain Frank Boal. The 

Wildcats accumulated 311 yards 

total offense and continued to show 

steady improvement in their pass- 

ing game to compliment their already 

proven running attack. QB

FRESHMEN QUARTERBACK Daryl Woodring rolls out against Bullis Prep in Friday's 21-7 victory. Fresh 

are undefeated. 

Freshmen Top Bullis 21- 7 

By BOB LEGGIADRO 

The Frosh wildcat football team 

posted their second straight victory 

of the season Thursday by 

downing Bullis Prep of Maryland 

21-7. After playing even witti their 

rivals for the first half, the 'Cats 

dominated the second half of tiie 

game, especially on defense. 

Bullis Prep made the game's 

first score halfway through the 

second quarter. V. U. linebacker 

Ed Kavanau^ picked off a pass 

thrown by Bullis quarterback Jim 

Bulger, but pass interference was 

called on the play, and the Marylanders 

had possession of tiie pigskin 

on their own 41 yard line. One 

play later Bullis back Gary Knudson 

raced 53 yards to Villanova's 

3 yard line on a beautifully- 

executed delayed -scissors play. 

Knudson then drove off left tackle 

for the six points two plays later. 

Mike O'Shaunesey's kick made the 

score 7-0 in the visitors' favor. 

Siani Scores 

Villanova came back within one 

point minutes later. With the ball 

on his own 31 yard line. Wildcat 

QB Daryl Woodring threw long to 

Mike Siani nmning a sideline -and 

up pattern. The 6 '3", 190 lb. split 

end caught the pass at the Bullis 

20, and easily beat his defender to 

- 

the goal line. 

An offsides penalty on Bullis on 

tiie extra -point attempt gave ttie 

Wildcats another chance from 1 

1/2 yards out, but they muffed 

ttie two-point conversion. 

V. U. failed to take advantage of 

another scoring oiôrtunity with 

seconds remaining in the half. 

Bullis elected to punt deep in their 

own territory on the fourth down. 

The Bullis punter fumbled following 

a bad snap from center, and 

Villanova recovered the pigskih 

about 1 foot from the goal line and 

immediately called time out. With 

time for one play remaining. Woodring 

fumbled the ball after a bad 

exchange from center. The half 

ended with the play, and the score 

stood 7-6 against the 'Cats. 

Gorden Strikes 

However, V. U. struck again In 

the third quarter. With the ball (xi 

the Bullis 42 yard stripe, Gordon 

carried the ball down to the 12 

yard line on a fine bootleg play. 

Would-be tacklers were cut down 

by the excellent blocks thrown by 

'Cat linemen and backs. A Gordon 

safety-valve pass to Dan O'Neil 

then brou^t the ball to the one. The 

5'9", 160 lb. Gordon then plunged 

over for tiie score. The scoreboard 

read Villanova, 14; Bullis, 7 after 

Ruggers A re Undefeated 

The Villanova Rugby team has 

in the past shown an inability to 

come up with a winning combina- 

tion early in the season. In the 

last two seasons, after bad starts, 

they turned around, played excellent 

Rugby and won four of the last 

five games. The enthusiasm of 

both the players and the followers 

this year is indicative of the kind 

of season expected. The team has 

talent and depth at just about all 

positions, and most players have 

experience, which is all-important 

in Rugby. (From the first fifteen 

of last year's team only four were 

lost; Fullback Rich Crawford, and 

Forwards Dan Vasti, Bill Jeffers, 

and Walt Gordon). 

The initial game scheduled was 

against Allentown on September 

22, at Allentown. The starting 

line-up consisted of Brian « Silver" 

MacNamara at hooker, replacing 

ttie injured Mad -Dog Har- 

old Byrnes who is recovering from 

some nasty disease while duckhunting 

in Canada; Glenn "Sophocles" 

former *' Fat Tie' Stevick 

and Bill "Surfer" Petrino at props; 

George "Ned's Father" Thomp-' 

son, Jeff "Chubby" Sedestak and 

Charlie 'Hustle" Lindbloom at 

second row; Don '"El Veteran" 

Guerrierri and Jack'"G.P.'^ Cassidy 

played wing-forwards. The 

backs consisted of Mike "Shepherd" 

Gorman at scrum-half, Pat 

"Oden'^ Dennehy at fly-half, Steve 

"I don't want any part of fullback" 

Daunis at inside-half, Jerry 

"Junior Speedster" Donovan at 

outside-half, and Terry "the Teror" 

Betten and Glen "Maslo" De- 

Palo at the wing positions. Larry 

'Ralph" Jordan played fullback 

with a headache and severe case 

of emphysema. 

Allentown was much tougher than 


a Gordon end run gave V. U. the 

two -point conversion. 

The Frosh Wildcats made ttie 

final score 21-7 late in the third 

quarter. John Bablnecz, a 6'2", 

205 lb. linebacker. Intercepted a 

Bulger pass, and ran it 25 yards 

to pay dirt. Defensive end Paul 

Zangrilli aided his teammate by 

blocking out the last tackier, Bulger 

himself, near the goal line. 

Ironically enough, Bablnecz, Zang- 

rilli, and Bulger were all football 

teammates at Catholic Central 

High School in Pittsburgh. 

Fumbles Hurt 

In the last quarter V. U. moved 

the ball well, but was stopped by 

eittier fumbles or dropped passes. 

Fullback Joe Kohler, and halfbacks 

Luke Solomon and Dan O'Neil 

really piled up the yardage during 

these last-quarter drives. 

The V. U. defense was outstand- 

in in the last half. The Bullis 

quarterbacks could have used a 

bottle of Bromo for the amount of 

times the 'Cat defense made them 

eat the ball. 

Unfortunately, the Frosh did not 

leave the game unscatched. Ted 

Freeman, a 6', 280 lb. defensive 

tackle, broke his ankle, and it is 

not yet known when he will return 

to action. 

The Frosh Cats next play against 

West Chester at home on Friday, 

October 11. 

Donnelly Sets Record 

By ROGER HALEY 

Villanova's defending NCAA 

championship cross-country team 

opened the 1968 season on a impressive 

note this past Saturday 

afternoon. Lead by senior 

AU-American Tom Donnelly's 

record breaking performance Villanova's 

thin-clads rolled over 

a highly touted Penn State squad 

19 to 36 at the loser's home course. 

In finishing first Donnelly set a 

new record for the five mile 

course of 25:03.2 bettering the 

old record of 25:03.5 set by Villanovan 

Charlie Messanger in 

1966. 

Burkle Second 

senior Dick Burkle finished 

in the number two position for 

the 'Cats while the best Penn 

State could do was the third 

place finish by Ray Smith. Wild 

Cat sophomore Chris Mason ran 

fourth while junior Irishman Des 

McCormack took fifth place for 

the Ivarrlers. Completing the scor- 

ing for the 'Cats was junior 

Andy O'Reilly who finished 

seventh. Despite the loss of 

sophomore Marty Liquori due 

to participation in the Olympics, 

it was -a fine all around 

performance for Villanova, evidenced 

by the fact that there 

was less than one minute difference 

between the times of 

the first and fifth Wild Catfinisher, 

Freshmen Romp 

In the freshman meet the 

Wild Kittens displayed all the talent 

that they were predicted to have 

by crushing Penn State's freshman 

19 to 45. V.U.'s Donal Walsh 

smashed the course record by 

covering the three miles in 14:43.6, 

bettering the old mark by more 

than 13 seconds. Penn State was. 

only able to garner one of the 

first six places as Villanovans 

finished first, third, fourth, fifth, 

and sixth. This fine showing by 

the Cat freshman could mean that 

dominance of the cross-coimtry 

sport by the Main Line harriers 

is not likely to end for quite some 

time. 

Georgetown Strong 

But looking to the immediate 

future the 'Cats face a tough chal- 

lange next week when they 

travel to Washington D.C. to meet 

Georgetown who is always rated 

one of the best in the East. This 

year Georgetown, who was second 

to V.U. in the IC4A's last year, 

sports a team which was almost 

untouched by graduation and which 

contains last year's freshman IC4A 

champions.

Student Government Target 

Makes New Proposals 

By DONNA TAYLOR 

Topping the bill of discussions 

between Administrative representatives 

and Student Government 

officers at the Student - Faculty 

Meeting on September 30, are 

Activities Hour, Pass-Fail Grades 

and Unlimited Cuts. 

The Administration has apologetically 

scrapped the proposal 

to restore the Activities Hour 

this semester, pleading it 

impossible due to the crowded 

by the deans, the S.G.A. officers 

set out to find those deans vrho 

are in fkvor of the system. One 

such dean is Father Burt, Dean of 

Arts and Sciences, who favors 

the idea in theory. He is leaving 

the mechanics of such a system 

up to a subcommittee, chaired by 

Dr. Markham, Administrative 

Assistant for the Associate Dean 

of Arts and Science. As soon 

as the Curriculum Coordinating 

Committee meets again, they hope 

cafeteria situation and conflicts in j to organize a pilot pass-fjiil pro- 

class scheduling. 

Those involved have promised to 

reschedule the Activities Hour for 

next semester on Tuesdays at 

12:30. This appears to be the 

most convenient time for all 

concerned. 

Pass- Fail System 

The Pass-Fail System proposed, 

would be extended to all Juniors 

and Seniors with cumulative 

averages of 2.5 and above. Providing 

an individual has a minimum 

of 15 credits, any elective course 

which would add to this miniirum 

could be optionally pass -fail, with 

a letter grade at mid-semester 

for I.B.M. purposes. 

Last year, tiie pass-fBill proposal 

was left up to the Dean of 

each School. Since it was tabled 

University-College 

Narks Its Fiftieth 

Year With Assembly 

Villanova University will observe 

the fiftieth anniversary of 

the founding of its undergraduate 

part-time division, known as 

UNIVERSITY COLLEGE, on Friday, 

October 18th, it was announced 

today by the Rev. Rol)ert J. Welsh, 

O.S.A., University President. 

An academic convocation will be 

held in the University Field House 

at 8:00 p.m. to mark the occasion. 

Courses for part-time students 

were first offered at Villanova in 

the summer of 1918. 

Dr. RichardA. Mumma, of Johns 

Hopkins University, will speak 

during the exercises and receive 

an honorary degree from Villanova's 

President. 

Villanova's part-time division 

offers credit and non -credit 

courses for students pursuing their I 

studies on part-time basis. Nearly 

j 

,^_ will men 

I 

100 courses are presenUy being [ ^velcome. 

offered in the fields of Accounting, 

Arts, Business Administration, 

Engineering, Mathematics and 

Education. 

Courses are offered for men and 

women in the evening, on Saturday 

morning, and during the 

summer mcxiths. 

Mr. Charles P. Bruderle has 

been Dean of University College for 

the past five years and has directed 

the University -wide -summer 

sessions since 1961. 

Approximately 2000 students are 

presently enrolled in University 

College and over 4000 attended the 

two summer sessions offered by 

Villanova this past summer. 

The late Rev. Joseph C. Bartley, 

O.S.A. was the first Dean of parttime 

studies at Villanova. Bartley 

Hall, in which most University 

College students take their 

classes, is fittingly named for the 


gram for initiation into the Spring 

semester. Both Dr. Markham and 

Fr. Burt agreed to have three 

students, suggested to represent 

the Sciences, Humanities and 

Social Science Curriculums, sit in 

an advisory capacity on the Committee's 

proceedings. Student 

Participation in the Committee's 

Activities was on an AD HOC basis 

last year; this year it promises 

to be more concrete and on a 

regular basis. The three students 

and one alternate will be appointed 

by the Student Government Presi- 

dent. 

The suggestion of the incipiency 

of unlimited cuts "seemed to meet 

with a certain a mount of approval' ' 

according to Joe Mayberry, Student 

Body President. However, Joe 

doesn't want to make it seem too 

hopeftil for enthusiastic student 

suiq;)orters. He is presently organizing 

a poll for fleiculty opinions on

Motion Of SGA 

Calls For Courses 

In Black History 

By DONNA TAYLOR 

Culling from a Black Student 

League presentation to preface its 

motions before the S.G.A. Senate 

Meeting last Tuesday, Tom 

Tourish has drawn up several motions 

dealing with the alleviation of 

the "appalling condition of black 

students on campus." These motions, 

unanimously recommended 

for passage, read: Be it moved: 

*'that in order to educate the community 

as a whole, courses in 

black culture and history be instituted 

and that professors chosen 

for these courses be black;" and 

"that the V.U. book store function 

as a book store, carrying books 

which are varied in both content 

and theme. This would give students 

the opportunity to not only 

pass tests, but also to obtain an 

education. Authors preferred are 

James Baldwin, Frantz Fanan and 

Malcolm X., and others who have 

dared to challenge th*e white establishment." 

These two motions are 

reiterations ofproposals and interviews 

that have sparked student 

interest and action since the commencement 

of 1968 Fall Semester. 

They are the result of feelings and 

omissions that have built up over 

the years and have now been brought 

to the fore via the widened channels 

of communication and serious 

attempts to understand the '"ra- 

velings* of strings" tying this 

university up into the neat academic 

and social bundle it presents 

to the public. 

Other motions recommended for 

passage, also reflect the growing 

comforts and policy-making par 

ticlpaton of students at Villanova. 

They range from the proposal to 

appoint students to the Board of 

Trustees as advisors, and to the 

Institutional Planning Council as 

voting members, to the appropriations 

of funds to the Rug by 

Club. Also recommended is the 

Installation of vending marchines 

in the dorms and a permanent 

T.V. In the Center Lounge.

Library Group 

Formed To 

Aid Students 

By HARRY WILLIAMS 

A student Library Committee 

has been formed to act as an effective 

and active means of communication 

between Father Rong- 

ione, head of the library, the staff 

and the entire student body. 

The Committee has been organized 

to represent a crosssection 

of the student body representing 

all classes and colleges. 

The Chairman is Bob Kana from 

Arts and Sciences. Among the 

other members from Arts and 

Sciences are: Mike Gullotti, Bill 

Thompson, Ron Redding and Jim 

Manion. The representatives from 

the other colleges are: C&F-Carl 

Mehldan, nursing-Karen Sekrah, 

Engineering-Bob Kirr and Bob 

Burnoski and Honors, Al Bodnor. 

Thus far the Library Committee 

has gotten some changes in the 

Library. The library will be open 

until midnight with the first floor 

being the only one open. The rest 

of the floors will be opened when 

student interest require it. They 

have gotten approval of vending 

machines to be installed in the 

library. The Committee has also 

gotten Father to agree to an increase 

in the number of Nursing 

journals due to the increased demand. 

If any students have suggesticms 

or problems or ideas with regard 

to the library system state your 

position in writing and give it 

to one of the members of the 

Library Committee.

By RICHARD LORD 

Politics, said William Shakespeare, 

makes strange bedfellows. 

And from personal experience, I 

can say that the Old Bard was 

right. For it was little more 

than a year ago that Iwas accusing 

Hubert Humphrey of being an accomplice 

to the war crimes of the 

Johnson Administration. Today, 

however, I am supporting Mr. 

Humphrey for the presidency, making 

him the fourth Democrat I've 

supported for that office (the others 

being McCarthy, Kennedy and 

McGovern). Finding most of my 

fellow dissenters opposing the candidacy 

of Mr. Humphrey, I have 

decided to write this essay with 

the intended purpose of both supporting 

my position and perhaps 

winning other dissidents over. . 

One of the first arguments 

raised against the supporting of 

Humphrey is that, even though 

he may be the lesser of three 

evils, he should be rejected because 

he doesn't meet the requirements 

that we would like in 

our next president. This argument 

Is very easy to knock down. 

One should readily see that if 

liberals and other members of 

the Left do not support Humphrey, 

they will, by their very non- sup- 

The Last Man 

port, help elect one of the other 

candidates, probably Richard Nixon. 

Nixon's views and record on 

such important issues as social 

welfare, the cold war, ''strong 

armed"solutions to law and order 

and dissenters should fill 

the heart of any self-respecting 

progressive with holy terror. A 

situation roughly analogous to 

this one occurred in the German 

presidential elections of 1932. 

Here the people were presented 

with three choices- Adolf Hitler, 

Paul Von Hlndenberg and Thalmann. 

Rejecting Thalmann, whose 

position is analogous to Humphrey's, 

the members of the German 

Left, from liberals to 

socialists to communists, stayed 

at home. Their absence from the 

polls gave the presidency to the 

right-wing Von Hlndenberg and 

great gains for the Nazis In the 

legislative houses. Within a year. 

Hitler had become chancellor. 

Protest Vote 

This then is what many dissidents 

say they are going to do. 

Many have said that a protest 

vote should be lodged to show 

dissatisfaction with the system. 

But this protest will put Nixon 

In the White House and, let's face 

It, he'll be there for four long 

Hubie 

years. Also, remember that the 

next president will, in addition 

to handling the precarious problems 

of the cities, appoint the 

next Chief Justice of the Supreme 

Court. I can see Tricky Dicky appointing 

somebody like Strom 

Thurmond or an equivalent. Again, 

the shape of things to come is ter- 

rifying. 

But enough of this mud slinging 

at America's political piece of 

clay. What about Hubert himself? 

Does he have any qualities of his 

own, beside being the rival of Nixon 

and Wallace? Well, when Senator 

McCarthy was campaigning, 

he continually stated that his was 

not a one Issue campaign. And, 

other than Vietnam, where were he 

and Humphrey apart? In domestic 

affairs Humphrey displayed, both 

as a Senator and Vice-President, 

one of the most progressive records 

of any man In the country. His 

record, even over the past four 

years, in the fields of civil rights 

and social welfare Is unequaled by 

all but a few. Just for a quick 

glance, let us remember that 

Humphrey proposed the Commission 

on avll Rights, the first 

Anti-Poll Tax Bill, proposed what

How Dry I Am"" Epistle To Hippie 

By RICHARD MURRAY 

Who could have predicted, or 

even remotely suspected, the 

strange events that took place on 

that day? Returning to my room, 

after a late lab period, I was 

surprised to find the door locked. 

I knew that my roommate should 

have been finishedwith classes two 

hours earlier, and he should be in 

the room at that time. A fast bit 

of detective work quickly revealed 

the fact that his laundry bag was 

missing, so I decided to follow 

his lead and headed for the laundry. 

Arriving at the laundry room, I 

noticed two things that were quite 

out of the ordinary; the usually 

crowded room was completely 

empty and silent except for the 

dull hum of one drier. I also 

noticed the distinct aroma of 

cooked meat that seemed to be 

coming from that drier. My curi- 

osity was aroused so I opened the 

drier and found only a single sheet 

of paper with some writing on it, 

slightly charred at the edges but 

still legible. The writing was my 

roommate's, Fm sure of it. After 

reading what he had to say, I felt 

it was my duty to make known the 

full implications of this the 

LAUNDRY PAPER. 

... not much time left, I think 

I hear them coming for me. For 

the past two weeks Pve been gathering 

the information necessary 

to expose the Syndicate. These 

devils are forcing unsuspecting 

students to participate in their 

gambling activities. The small 

nickle and dime soda and milk 

machines are only the vanguard 

of these sly individuals. Once the 

students are fully indoctrinated, 

they are ready to be taken for the 

big money at the laundry room. 

The worst thing about it is that 

those who use the washers and 

driers here have no chance of 

winning, and only occasionally 

break even. 

Since I've started this crusade, 

Pve witnessed twelve of the naive 

innocents "taken to the cleaners" 

and I hate to tnmk ol the students 

that spent good money to find out 

Senior 

FEATURING: 

that the other four machines didn't 

work. To show how truly diaboli- 

cal the members of the syndicate 

are, they have even programmed 

the niachines to eliminate anyone 

who got too lucky. One brave 

student, after finding that the machine 

didn't work, gave it a kick. 

The washer started to hum, then 

to vibrate wildly, and finally broke 

loose from its mountings and almost 

killed the astonished stu- 

dent. 

I hear them coming, they're 

getting closer, somehow they must 

have found out. 

In the Students Secret Service 

Agent 00586 

Later I figured out what must 

have taken place. The Syndicate 

probably decided to get rid of him 

and the evidence all at once. They 

decided to put him in a drier and 

dehydrate him to nothingness. But 

they were beaten by their own 

game; when I got there, my poor 

roommate was just a cloud of 

steam, but the drier, programmed 

to give out the minimum amount of 

heat, could not generate enough 

heat to eliminate the evidence, 

I mourn the loss of my fHend, 

but wherever he is Pm sure he 

will get some degree of satisfaction 

from the fact that his work 

did not go unnoticed. 

LAST 

(Continued from page 6) 

is today the Job Corps, first proposed 

Medicare and the Peace 

Corps. 

So, that is the man and that is 

the record. You know where the 

country is. Beyond Vietnam, 

Humphrey's record is exemplary. 

The opinion here is that the man 

best qualified to be president was 

Tdlled. But of all the candidates 

offered now, I believe that Hubert 

Humphrey is the best. Can he end 

the immoral war and unite the 

country? Nobody can really telL 

but does anybody think that either 

Richard Nixon or George Wallace 

will be more efficacious in these 

areas than Hubert Humphrey?

f- '»^f 

By PAT CORCORAN 

You're all tired of hearing about 

"Hippies", but I've finally decided 

to air my thoughts on the subject; 

please excuse the belated ideas, 

belated in respect to all the Hippie 

documentaries and editorials that 

have appeared in the last year. 

Enough. . . . Hippies. . . 

By Hippies I mean people who 

can't accept middle class values 

then shout "Foul" and drop out in 

one form or another. 

The first thing that disturbs me 

is that in their great "love" they 

miss the whole idea of loveredemption; 

meaning love is a 

choice of position (not geographical) 

whereat a person can achieve 

his own salvation and that of others. 

My idea of position is the 

Institution. Human weakness, realizing 

itself, chooses a framework 

outside itself to stabilize its weak 

nature and thereby enable productivity-action 

for redemption. An 

example of such a framework is the 

Ten Commandments, This is very 

general. Particular institutions 

are Marriage and religious life. 1 

doubt very much that many men are 

capable of acting outside these 

institutions. (Gary Cooper may be 

an exception). 

It is the very thing for a Hippie 

to drop out of institutions-andlove 

(Didn't somebody once say "If you 

love me you will keep my com 

mandments") But by dropping out 

he removes himself from the true 

and established framework of love. 

But what's his motive for dropping 

out? 

Middle Class Values (said by a 

deep echoing baritone voice.) 

These values in my opinion are a 

necessary and understandable product 

of the depression. That period's 

lack of material goods 

naturally made men aware of an 

acutely painful lack of them -and so 

there was a world view instilled 

in men that general happiness depends 

on material goods- a lot of 

them and perhaps for their own 

sake. This generation raises the

is a repetition of the values 

pendulum swing that took place in 

the 20's and 30's. Instead of lacking 

the material, this generation lacks

V.U.T.Y 

By TOM KLISCH 

"With a speed of light, a cloud 

of dust, and a hearty high -ho. 

Silver!" the lone ranger rides off 

into the sunset and off our television 

screen. Television is a 

means of entertainment but more 

and more it is being used as an 

educational device. Educators and 

administrators throughout the 

world are coming to realize the 

value of this medium of communication 

as an aid to education. 

Many years ago in the kingdom 

by Lancaster Avenue, Vlllanova 

realized its advantage, but, alas 

where has all the Interest gone? 

Well, it didn't really go anywhere: 

it was suppressed, beaten, intimidated 

and in general made to appear 

like a decadent, capitalistic 

pleasure. 

Villanova T.V. 

If at some time in the nebulous 

near future you happen to find 

yourself in or near an exact spatiotemporal 

existence at the computer 

center in Mendel Hall, you will and 

can have the opportunity of observing 

a unique and tragic salute 

to fear, gradual conservatism and 

indifference -- the shattering 

of a dream. Walk down the hallway 

past the computer center and 

stay alert. On your right you will 

see a door and in the window of 

that door you will see a sign --a 

sign showing that this is the headquarters 

of Villanova television. 

The door is almost always locked, 

because what is behind that door; 

a tale of woe, heartache, and 

human indifference lies in decay. 

The door is now opened; the room 

is dim and silent; on the right, 

lying on shelves and setting on the 

ground, is a gathering of old, dusty, 

antiquated electronic devices that 

look down and up at you like aged 

men that have resigned themselves 

to nature. On the left is a gaping, 

draft -blown hole that was once 

the control window which took in 

the studio in the next room. There 

are two fairly recent cameras, if 

you like to call cameras that were 

purchased when our present seniors 

were only juniors in high 

school, recent. One of them works, 

but the other, when put in opera- 

tion, blinks at you with light and, 

then, dark and light and dark; it 

could be fixed but alas the piggy 

bank has run dry. As you walk 

into another small room, other 

relics of the days of silent movies 

greet you. In one corner is a film 

chain and unascope built in 1939 

which has th e distinction of being 

one of the first pieces of equipment 

to ever have been used in 

television. Immediately in front of 

you Is a monolith of wires, dials 

and switches. They call it a syne 

generator and it stands a towering 

seven feet high, about two feet wide 

and one and one -half feet deep. A 

fSintastic rebuttal to man's technical 

skill but a modern one is a 

little larger than a dish top, you 

could carry under your arm --a 

flantastic rebuttal. On the left are 

two tape recorders; one doesn't 

work at all, and when the other is 

in operation it presents a picture 

which, if it were observed by any 

child, would immediately be said to 

warrant the unqualified attention 

of a skilled electric surgeon or 

T.V. man.

the media res. In my opinion the 

Hippies, with their unsubstantial 

idea of love removed from any 

stabilizing institutions, have un- 

avoidably (necessarily?) let the 

pendulum swing too far. The result 

is spiritual extremism. And any 

extremism is evil, even spirit- 

ually. The result is the Hippie; 

and there's hippie in us all, I 

think. 

Communications 

Death in Mendel 

This fantastic tribute of free and 

frugal educational opportunity is 

coming around its last lap, a 

weary and penniless contender. 

Its main supporters in the age of 

yesterday were a few. Just a few, 

faculty members, Father O'Rourke 

and Mr. Wilkie being two. It is 

now run by two undergraduates of 

the engineering college who are 

official employees of the University 

and who are paid $1,25 an 

hour to keep a little breath still 

in its body. When this station was 

born its promoters were given a 

$20,000 generosity stipend by the 

University to get it breathing and 

its heart beating. For three years, 

they pinched pennies, begged, borrowed, 

and to giv.e It backbone. 

But alas the inevitable occurred. 

One of those gloriously 

deli^tAil committees was estab- 

lished to investigate this station, 

A committee composed of adamant, 

and stubborn opponents to 

educational television. (People do 

indeed like to have the odds in 

their favor.) It was composed of 

people whom it appears took the 

assignment with the unshaking in- 

tention to give it a very unfair 

investigation. They complained, 

"It will destroy the personal con- 

tact between teacher and student, 

education will become too mechanized." 

But, by the god Zeus 

what a relief it would be from 

veachers who never learned or 

bothered to learn how to present 

an interesting lecture; from doctors 

who refuse to satisfy an in- 

quisitive mind in class and lecture 

a student on why not to ask 

questions because it disturbs his 

mathematical tranquility; fl*om 

teachers who run a lecture hall 

like a Nazi indoctrination course 

rather than a class in knowledge. 

It is from this kind of personal 

contact that most students wish 

to be free. Nevertheless, this committee 

placed a moratorium on 

T.V. at Villanova and with that 

the dreams and aspirations of 

T.V. in Mendel Hall were put to a 

mournful, slow death. 

New Studios 

But, there Is a dilemma, a 

great dilemma, and one that can- 

not quite be justified. It is quite 

safe to assume that you have 

all been in the interior of our 

new library. It's certainly not 

"luxurious," but that is beside 

the point. On the sub -basement 

level which really isn't the subbasement 

if you look at floor 

signs, but really is if you are in 

the elevator, there are two rooms'* 

designated classrooms 1 and 2 and 

two rooms designated studios 1 and 

2. 

Further investigation shows that 

tiiese two studios are none other 

than television studios. "Quite 

interesting, Mr. Holmes, —not 

so elementary my dear Watson,"

nisned with up to date television

of the library will be

Just the first move. The equipment

Save 

Social anthropologists, and 

others with equally impressive 

titles, can trace many aspects of 

our contemporary cXilture to origins 

lost in the mists of time. Some 

of these have enduifed almost unchanged 

throughout man's history, 

for Instance the petty superstitions 

which many persons still Indulge 

in, or astrology. Other of these 

anachronisms have been modified, 

tempered, or adapted^for modern 

usage by prevailing social trends, 

religious thought, even science. 

Thus^ve see the time honored tribal 

tradition of leaving the old and 

the infirm to die at the mercy of 

the elements has been revived, 

rationalized by 'humanitarian' 

philosophy, and given a fine sounding 

scientific name (i.e. euthan- 

asia). 

Traditional Rites 

A less obvious ancient tradition, 

whose roots are truly primaeval, 

and which is still with us today is 

the "orgy," or "party," or "social 

gathering," Like the example mentioned 

above, this noble custom has 

been greatly modified through the 

years, until at the present day it is 

all but unrecognizable from what 

it once was. A keen student of 

orgies will be quick to point out 

that this cultural phenomenen is 

directly related to the famous 

"rites of spring" which were so 

popular with our ancestors, and to 

the less well-known but equally 

Important ''harvest festivals" of 

these same people. 

Alas, the orgy, once a proud, 

shameless monument to all that is 

evil, bestial, low, and corrupt in 

V.U.T.V. 


video tape machines and the possibility 

of a mobile unit, — "Cooperation, 

Mr. Holmes, — not so 

my dear Watson, check and mate." 

Yes, checkmate, on whom? On 

those people in Mendel Hall. Here 

is the explanation of your dilemma. 

The people in Mendell Hall 

were not asked; were not aware; 

were not involved; and know nothing 

about what the library is doing 

— a tnily fiuitastic situation. We 

complain about lack of communication 

between administration and 

students but how can we expect 

any communication when they, the 

governors, do not even talk among 

themselves. Yes, Milton, thou 

shouldst be living at this hour, 

to teach us how to be compatriots. 

Coup de Grace 

Why, were the people in Mendel 

Hall not invited to participate? 

Why was a committee set up to 

investigate T.V. at Villanova and 

why did it dissolve after it delivered 

its coup de'grace? Why, 

because an aggiornamento has not 

occurred at Villanova, because 

dialogue is still not in its vocabulary, 

because people are too proud 

and stubborn to ask. 

Is this a problem, indeed it is. 

But the answer does not lie in the 

stars, nor in financing a separate 

project, but in people themselves. 

If — if they would stop and think 

that the whole reason why we are 

not on Mars and beyond today is 

because our leaders in government 

and the leaders of other governments 

can not communicate; if 

Ihey would cmly try, ttien maybe 

they would see that working together 

is very rewarding, ttiat cooperation 

doesn't have a price 

tag; then, maybe we could learn 

from their example. For the true 

greatness of a man, a group, or a 

society is not measured in its 

wealth, equipment or assets but in 

its attitude toward fellow man 

and In their activities in this 

war -torn place we like to call 

our home. And therefore, the true 

greatness of Villanova will be 

measured in this same way. What 

may we sugtrest? Well how about 

I good old fashion pow-wowi 

"Case closed, Mr. Holmes? -- 

Just beginning my dear Watson." 

mankind has been all but destroyed 

in recent years. It has been ration- 

alized, moralized, and justified. It 

has fallen prey to the code of the 

Puritan ethic, and it has been made 

mediocre to conform with the hypocritical 

bourgeoise sense of propriety. 

In short, around the once 

pure, unsullied altar of its primitive 

hedonism have l>een erected 

the stained glass windows of the 

I Establishment whose effect is to 

diffuse, to color, the light of 

reality. The orgy, then. Its truly 

laudable characteristics destroy- 

ed, has become respectable. 

Restoring the Orgy 

Luckily for all concerned, there 

is a movement afoot to restore the 

lost prestige of the orgy. Of course, 

this Is strictly a guerrilla action, 

since at present we lr\ck the 

strength to meet the legions of 

(eccch) traditional morality In out- 

right battle. Our methods of attack 

are simple. We will cloak the 

movement in the garments of tra- 

ditional ethics. In this way we will 

not only delude the Establishment 

into thinkii * that the practice has 

been destroy ''d, but we will actually 

gull them into helping us. Thus, in 

addition to our private, intimate 

home-type orgies, we will be able 

to have Junior Orgies, Senior Orgies, 

Homecoming Orgies, Commencement 

Orgies, and soon. Now, 

in order to be successful in this 

endeavor, the more radical purists 

among us must be curbed. Iwillbe 

the first to admit that the true orgy 

should be held in an oak grove, 

accompanied by Druid priests. 

Since there Is a shortage of oak 

groves, however, we will have to 

settle for a hotel ballroom (or 

I other types of hotel rooms). In 

addition, the trouble which has been 

encountered in obtaining a Druid 

has virtually ruled out this possi- 

bility. You win have to settle for 

Orgy I 

an Augustlnian. Secondly, there 

will be no maiden- sacrificing. If 

you feel that this is necessary, at 

least be discreet about it. It tends 

to give the University a bad name. 

Finally, Nymphs and Satyrs will not 

be admitted without proof of age. 

We have had some troublewith this 

in the past, but if everyone cooperates, 

things will go smoothly. 

Now I realize that some persons 

will balk at these restrictions. I 

cannot help but feel that this is a 

small price to pay if we are truly 

to preserve the theory and prac- 

tice of the orgy for our posterity.

Buffalo Passing Looks Tough 

By DON HALBERSTADT 

This Saturday, Villanova will 

travel to New York to meet the 

University of Buffalo Bulls. Coach 

Doc. Urlch's Bulls defeated Delaware 

last Saturday while Villa 

nova was defeated by Boston Col- 

lege. 

Receiving is Buffalo's strong 

point with senior split- end Dick 

Ashley returning after missing the 

1967 season with a leg injury. 

Ashley already owns career records 

for receptions, yardage and 

touchdowns. Chuck Drankoski 

moves to flanker and there are 

two lettermen tight ends, Paul 

Lang and Terry Endress. 

The running attack is led by 

tailback, Pat Patterson, who broke 

the single season rushing mark 

(666 yards) last year playing part 

time. Joining Patterson in the 

backfield will be speedy halfback

To the Editor: '. 

•• 

I am not in a position to comment 

upon the plight of the black 

student in his academic or athletic 

endeavors but I must correct 

some mistaken concepts concerning 

his social opportunities. 

There are four social fraternities 

on'Villanova's campus which 

do not discriminate against any 

interested student because of his 

color. I know several and perhaps 

all of the fraternities have 

had several black brothers in past 

years. We all participate in an 

open rush program to which all 

students are welcome to come. 

Few if any black students have 

bothered to come to any of the 

rush functions. 

If we went out and recruited 

one or two black students, we 

would probably be accused of "token 

integration'* and trying to 

look liberal. Fraternities will 

discriminate neither in favor or 

against a black student. The black

Quarterbacking the Bulls will be 

Denny Mason who, in the last three 

games, has broken his own record 

for pass completicms. In Buffalo's 

opener against Iowa State, Mason 

set a school record with 15 completions 

and the following week 

threw 17 against Massachusetts. 

Then in a losing cause at Boston 

College, his 19 completions es- 

tablished another new high. 

Offensively, the Bulls' weakest 

point is their hands. Urich's backfield 

has fumbled 15 times and 

lost possession on six occasions. 

All six bobbles have cost the Bulls 

a potential score or have set up 

the opposition. In 1967, the Bulls 

fumbled 20 times in ten games. 

students have just as much chance 

as any white student of taking part 

in the best social life available 

at Villanova, all he has to do is 

show a little interest. The opportunity 

is there, I invite him to 

accept it or reject it as he wishes, 

but don't blame anyone but him- 

self if he rejects it.

Top Line Backers 

Defensively, the Bulls have one 

of the t(^ Unebacking corps in the 

reerion featuring All -East linebacker, 

Mike Luzny, a junior from 

South Bend, Indiana. Luzny was 

not able to play In the first three 

games because of a summer knee 

operation. In his first start of the 

season against Boston College, 

Luzny was given the green light 

in the fourth quarter and made five 

unassisted tackles. He will be 

calling the Bulls' defensive sig- 

nals against Villanova. 

The defensive secondary, a weak 

spot in '67, is completely revamped. 

Syracuse transfer, Nick 

Kish, and sophomore Len Nixon, 

appear to have won starting halfback 

positions while Dick Horn 

and quick Tom Elliot are battling 

for the starting slot at safety. 

bringing those people who are 

interested in a similar field into 

closer contact with each other 

both on the academic and the social 

levels and that organizations such 

as ours are necessary for a proper 

university atmosphere. 

We further decry the shocking 

lack of communication between 

various segments of the university 

which brought about the situation 

in question and, besides asking 

for the re-instatement of the activities 

hour, we urge the adminis- 

tration to continue its effort to 

improve communication not only 

between the administration and the 

student body, but also between the 

segments of the administration 

itself. 

We find it singularly significant 

that no one in the administration 

took note earlier than Monday, 

September 9, 1968 of the possi- 

bility of a problem in relation to 

the cafeteria when such a problem 

seemed eminently obvious to the 

members of the student body. We 

further interpret the short notice 

given to the people affected by 

the recent change as a lack not 

only of courtesy but also of a 

willingness to discuss the problem 

with those involved. 

In short, we desire that some 

solution other than the one recently 

put into effect be found which will 

be compatible with the academic 

goals of the university as well 

as with the interests of our organizations 

who share those goals, 

and we offer our assistance in 

finding such a solution,

W PLAN AHEAD 


The VILLANOVAN should be 

lauded for printing both sides of the 

major issues of the day. On one 

page you print a scathing editorial 

denouncing George Wallace, and on 

the next we see a large ad exhort- 

ing us to join the Youth for Wallace. 

You can air the views of what 

appears to be a majority of the student 

body with regard to reforms In 

campus and academic life, while 

also publishing articles condemning 

change. (ie. "Femmes 

Fatales") 

Why can't the university follow 

this policy when choosing speakers 

to address the student body? Conservatives 

will be in ecstasy when 

William F. Buckley speaks this 

Spring here at Villanova. Will this 

be the definitive statement on the 

subject? Should those of us who 

stand somewhat to the left of Mr. 

Buckley admit defeat? Why not invite 

Gore Vidal, Gene McCarthy, 

or George Mc Govern to speak 

here? Going a little further, it 

might not be a bad idea to invite 

Black Panther Minister Eldrldge 

Cleaver to lecture on law and 

order. Mayor Daley might then 

follow with his somewhat controversial 

concepts of how to keep 

the peace. 

Irregardless of how contro- 

versial the speaker or the subject.

Past-failures 


Recently a group of students, 

possibly representing SGA., in a 

meeting with the Academic Vice 

Pres., Fr, DriscoU, proposed, 

among other things, a "pass-failure" 

system for elective courses. 

I am aware of the fact that such 

considerations had been entertained 

at previous administrative 

level meetings. No changes from 

the present norm could be estab- 

lished. 

I propose two ideas for your 

consideraticm that appear palatable. 

First, and as widely as 

possible, during the first two years 

of one's "general" non-elective, 

non-major, curriculum, institute 

a pass/fiiilure system. The student 

either passes or must repeat 

specific 100 level courses. 

Examples of such pass/fBiilure 

courses in the Arts area could 

be History (Wes. Civ.)., English 

(Grammar and Composition), Modem 

Languages, Theology, Philosophy, 

Sciences, etc. We all know 

these courses to be non -elective, 

non-major, generally required 

courses. We all know that in 

graduate studies beyond the bachelor 

level, whether in the Arts, 

Sciences or Business fields, admission 

is gained by one's cumulative 

average with the emphasis 

placed upon the student's performance 

in his major field. I doubt 

if a "C" in History 133 will 

keep the "A" student in Biol(^y 

out of Medical school. Precisely; 

because the reverse IS TRUE, 

it would be necessary to retain, 

a grading system on the elective 

-major curriculum. 

Second, Junior/ Senior upper 

classmen should be permitted to 

audit for credit a specific number 

of credit hours. The student 

would elect the course, pay for 

it as an audit, get credit for it 

as an audit in his course hour 

cumulative total.

This Could Be The Year 

Ever since the Wally tônes, 

By JOE lACOVITTl J 

Jim Washington era 

at Villanova, Jack Kraft has been transforming .500 

basketball teams into tournament teams. Give him 

one solid offensive threat and a bunch of hustling 

kids and Kraft will come up with a winner. 

Three years ago a frail, little guy named Mel- 

finals. For the past two years Johnny Jones has had 

to bear the brunt of the scoring load. But these two 

players are only part of the Kraft success formula. 

Wildcat teams always play that tough defense, a defense 

which demands alert, concentrated play. 

In this age of run and shoot basketball, Kraft has 

somehow made his players think defense. The use 

of a deliberate, patterned offense has undoubtedly 

forced the players to think along these lines. They 

realize that most Villanova games are decided by less 

than ten points, and you have to put out at both ends 

of the court to win. 

But Pm sure the coach is wondering how Howard 

Porter and the other newcomers will respond to his 

style of play. If they can adapt themselves quickly 

and overcome those Sophomore jitters, this could be 

Kraft's greatest team. 

With Howard Porter and Johnny Jones bombing 

from either corner, the Cats will score more points 

this year. Add to this the rebounding strength of 

Sam Sims, the playmaking of Frank Gillen and the 

defensive brilliance of Bob Melchionni and the Cats 

appear unstoppable. 

But of the five players I mentioned, only Porter, 

Jones and Gillen appear assured of a job. The 

Wildcats will have tremendous depth and versatility 

this year. With only Joe Crews graduating the Cats 

will have nine returning veterans battling five legitimate 

Sophomore prospects for berths on the team. 

Take a guy like Clarence Smith who is equipped 

to play both guard and forward. He appears to be a 

better offensive threat than Melchionni or Sims, but 

must learn how to play Kraft's defense. If Smith 

or Hal Watson play forward, Porteir will move into 

the pivot. 

Against teams like St. Bonaventure and U,C.L,A, 

the Cats may go with 6* 7" Jim Mcintosh in the 

middle. A frontcourt of Mcintosh, Porter and Jones 

should be able to neutralize people like Lanier and 

Alcindor. 

If the Cats inside game is somehow stymied, 

Kraft will probably call on Soph Tom Fox or Junior 

Fran O'Hanlon. Both of these players are streaky 

type shooters, who can light a fire under a sagging 

offense. 

It seems coach Kraft has personnel for every conceivable 

situation. The fact that I haven't even mentioned 

names like Frank McCall, George May, Leon 

Wojnowski and Joe Walters bear this feet out. 

At this point about the only thing wrong with 

the basketball picture at Villanova is that the experts 

claim we're the fourth best team in the nation. 

Considering how reliable these pre- season polls 

generally are, Fd much rather see us unranked. 

But it says here that this is one time when the 

polls will almost be right. This Cat team can play 

with anybody in the country, including that famed 

aggregation on the West Coast, 

Rugby Wins 24-0 

The Villanova Rugby team made 

it three in a row with a convincing 

win over Temple Medical 

School as six men contributed to 

the 24-0 score. The game played

after three minutes. Temple could 

not mount a scoring threat as Villanova 

kept on the offensive. Cap- 

tain Jerry Donovan, a 9.9 sprinter, 

took a pass at the 45, cut to the 

sideline, then back to the middle 

and went in untouched. Cassidy 

made the kick and the score stood 

10-0. With the first half almost 

over, 6', 200 lb. left wing Terry 

Betten scored from in close for 

his first tally since coming back 

from the injured ranks. The kick 

was missed and V.U. led at halftime 

13-0. Villanova had been 

forced to play with only 14 men for 

much of the first half as fiyhalf 

Steve Daunis was injured and 

had to leave the game. 

Forwards Dominate 

The second half began with Cassidy 

having moved from his wingforward 

position to fly-half to fill 

in for Daunis. 

This half saw scores by the 

forwards only as Brian MacMamara, 

playing very well at hooker, 

scored the first try of his career, 

and Don Guerrierri and Jack Cassidy 

each scored once. Guerrierri 

knocked the last man over at the 

goal line in John Sodaski fashion, 

Cassidy made one of three kicks 

and Villanova had its final 24-0 

victory margin. 

The B-team lost to Old Blue 

B 17-5. Talented wing Tony Bliss 

will be lost for an undisclosed 

period of time because of a 

shoulder injury.

looking forward to a successfiil

and now a University of Pennsylvania

ficially open practice on Nov. 3. 

The team, led by soiA captain 

John Schreider, and junior cocaptain

season; it simply says, "Be 

Strong". That strength is hoped to 

be peaked by the IC4A's and con- 

tinued until November 25.

two more while achieving a hi^

The thing that pleased Coach Gregory 

and his staff the most, however, 

was the great improvement 

Rich has shown since the first game 

against Toledo. He has received 

some unduly harsh criticism from 

many people who seem to expect 

miracles from him every week. 

Any of this criticism which mig^t

As members of the undergraduate 

body at Villanova, we would 

like to express a complaint which 

we feel should be of interest and 

concern to all those associated 

with the University. 

Just last week, we were informed 

by the Financial Aid Office that the 

University has exhausted the flnan- 

cail assistance funds for the first 

six months of 1969. We were informed 

that this was due to the 

fact that the University had enrolled 

an extremely large freshfhen 

class and that there had been 

a drainage of funds to the building 

drive. 

What this all adds up to is that

This week's choice as offen- 

sive player of the week goes to 

Frank Boal, senior halfback and 

CO -captain of the Wildcats. Frank 

has not seen as much action this 

year as in the past but Saturday 

he showed that breakaway speed 

for which he is noted. The 5'9" 

speedster took the ball on his 

own 28 and angled towards the 

open side of the field. When he 

had the whole B.C. kickolf team 

going that way he quickly reversed 

field and scampered down the sidelines 

untouched for the score. 

Earlier in the same period Frank 

had nearly broken loose on a kick- 

off return. He moved the ball 

from his own 14 to the B.C. 36 

before the last man l)etween him 

and the paydirt brought him down. 

It was this electrifying run that 

lit the fire under the Cats'

Cats Rally 2nd Half >-g 1. — 

By PETE PHILBIN 

The Vllianova football squad was 

handed its second defeat of ttie 

season last Saturday by the Eagles 

of Boston College who displayed, 

In Frank Harris, one of the finest 

young quarterbacks in the country. 

B. C. led at halftime 21-0 and 

extended it to 28-0 in the third 

quarter before the Cats became 

untracked and made it a ballgame. 

B.C.'s alert secondary, led by 

John Salmon, made some key interceptions 

however, which prevented 

Villanova from getting too 

close. 

BC Scores Quickly 

On the first series of downs it 

looked like the Cats were in for 

a real beating. Dave Bennett, the 

highly touted halfback, took a Har- 

ris pass in the flat, brushed off 

two tacklers, evaded another and 

went 68 yards for the score only 

to have it called back due to a 

clipping penalty. On the very 

next play Harris went with the 

same flat pass, this time to Jim 

C atone, who went all the way to 

the Villanova 22 before being 

brought down by Dino Follno. Six 

p&ys later Harris hit split end 

Barry Gallup for tiie first tally. 

Gallivan's extra point made ttie 

score 7-0. 

Later on in ttie first quarter, 

B.C. capitalized on the only Villanova 

fumble of the day deep in 

Wildcat territory. Jim Catone took 

it in from the one and Gallivan's 

PAT made it 14-0 as the first 

period closed. 

Willis Scores 

The first half scoring was completed 

as Harris directed the 

Eagles 68 yards in 9 plays with 

Fred Willis going the last 12 on 

a pass from Harris. 

The second half was like watching 

an entirely different Villanova 

football team. After spotting 

ttie Eagles another T.D. the gridders 

staged a brilliant comeback 

and came close to pulling the game 

out of the fire. 

F rankle Boal got the Cats going 

witti a beautiful 72 yard punt return 

for the initial score. Boal 

had almost gone all the way minutes 

earlier on a kickoff return. 

This seemed to ignite the players 

and early in the fourth period 

Sodawski engineered a beautiftil 

drive marching the Cats nearly 

the length of the field and finally 

taking it in from the one. The big 

play of the drive was a keeper by 

ttie big quarterback who rumbled 

30 yards before being knocked out 

of bounds. Sodaski threw to Jim 

Stopper who was wide-open in the 

end zcHie to make the score 28- 

15 Iniavor of B.C. 

The Cats were driving again In 

the fourth period and seemed to 

have gained momentum when Jim 

McCool picked off a Dodaski pass 

and all but ended the Wildcat 

hopes. 

"Cats Beat Themselves" 

In commenting on the game 

Coach Gregory felt that the boys 

"beat themselves more than anything 

else." "This was especially 

noticeable in the first half," said 

Gregory. "We just didn't execute 

properly. Many of the boys 

were missing their assignments 

like the linemen pulling out when' 

they were supposed to stay at the 

line and block." When asked 

about the improvement of the teams 

play in the second half, Gregory 

explained: "We made no major 

adjustments. It was simply a 

matter of better execution." One 

thing Gregory did have the Cats 

doing more was the swing and 

screen passes to ttie halfbacks 

which played a big part in the 

touchdown drive. 

It was one of those games with 

a lot of "if^". Had a few of them 

gone ViUanova's way, B.C. would 

not now be undefeated.
