West Campus Apartments dedicated in ceremony

News Editor 

The dedication of the new West 

Campus residence halls took place 

Oct. 11 in front of Welsh Hall. The 

four buildings, William and Jane 

Moulden Hall, John A. Klekotka, 

O.S.A. Hall, Jane Rudolph Hall, 

and Robert J. Welsh, O.S.A. Hall, 

were blessed in a formal ceremony 

and the naming of each building 

was explained. Dr. Christine 

Lysionek, director of Residence 

Life, began the ceremony by 

introducing Dr. Richard A. 

Neville, vice president of Student 

Life. 

Neville welcomed the audience 

to the ceremony and proceeded to 

thank everyone who was involved 

with the construction of the 

apartments. "Board members, 

faculty and staff of the University, 

administrators, township officials 

and architects and builders: each 

group shares a common sense of 

happiness and satisfaction... " 

from the opening of the apartments, 

Neville said. However, 

"the happiest group here today 

are the students" who are currently 

living in the apartments. 

The construction of the new 

apartments demonstrates the 

University's "long-term hopes of 

adding significantly new and 

improved facilities" for students. 

Each of the four apartments 

was dedicated in honor of individuals 

who have contributed to the 

University in some way. Julie 

Vastola, Apartment Assistant 

(AA) in Rudolph Hall, explained 

that the hall was named after Jane 

Rudolph who sold her Belle Air

Homecoming celebration 

By TANYA MARIE ANNAS 

Staff Reporter 

Homecoming Weekend kicks off 

Thursday, Oct. 27, offering a host 

of enjoyable events designed for 

students, family and alumni. 

"There are a number of changes 

this year," said Gary Olson, 

chairperson of the Homecoming 

Committee and executive director 

of Alumni Affairs. Changes 

include improvements in the 

service lines for food and beverages 

at the Homecoming Picnic, 

the addition of Homecoming University 

and the inclusion of Wild- 

cat Roar '94. 

Villanova welcomed renowned 

writer and poet Dr. Maya Anêlou, 

who delivered a presentation at 

the Jake Nevin Field House, 

Thursday, Oct. 27. Angelou is 

perhaps best known for her reading 

of "On the Pulse of Morning," 

the Clinton Inaugural poem. 

The University celebrates Midnight 

Madness tonight at 8 p.m. 

in duPont Pavilion. The event 

promises Wildcat fans the chance 

to greet the coaches and players 

of the men's and women's basket- 

ball teams. Free admission also 

gives students access to all the 

"entertainment, fun and surprises," 

including a special 

appearance by 'Nova's 1985 

National Championship team and 

the unveiling of the new athletic 

logo. 

A new addition to Homecoming 

1994 is Homecoming University. 

Offered to alumni, this series of 

seminars hosted by University 

faculty, expounds on a diverse 

range of topics. "The State of 

Black America" and "The New 

Catechism" are two of the motifs 

to be featured in the panel discussions 

scheduled for Saturday 

morning. 

The Villanova Wildcats will 

challenge William & Mary on 

Nevin Field, at 11:30 a.m. Saturday.

president of the University from 

1959-1965. During his administration, 

Mendel Hall was con-

Senate 

convenes 

By KATHLEEN COONEY 

News Editor 

The University Senate meet 

today in the East Lounge of 

Dougherty Hall at 4 p.m. 

Issues that will be discussed at 

the meeting include the meeting 

with the executive committee of 

the Board of Trustees on Nov. 28 

and the motion regarding the 

Social Action Committee. The 

motion concerning a smoke-free 

workplace by Jan. 1, 1995, was 

tabled. 

Amelia Hollinger spoke at the 

last meeting, Sept. 16, about a 

smoke-free campus. She began 

with several statistics from the 

American Cancer Society. For 

instance, 30 percent of all cancer 

deaths were traced to smoking. 

Also, every year about 3,000 nonsmokers 

die from breathing 

second-hand smoke. 

There are several things that 

are essential if the University is 

to become a smoke-free workplace, 

said Hollinger. Total commitment 

is necessary from the senior 

administration and faculty. Also, 

counseling programs to change 

behavior and equipment to extinguish 

cigarettes outside the buildings 

must be implemented before

CHICAGO — Poor women 

leave the welfare rolls for jobs 

much more often than was 

previously thought, but the 

low-paying and sometimes 

unattractive work rarely provides 

a long-term solution to 

dependence, according to several 

recent studies. 

Most of the women soon quit 

or lose the jobs and return to 

the welfare rolls. The reasons 

for leaving work can range 

from economic problems like 

low wages or the loss of health 

insurance to personal difficul- 

ties like drug abuse or fights 

with bosses. 

And at an employment program 

near Cabrini-Green, the 

vast housing project, many 

women cite a complication 

rarely noted in official debate: 

jealous interference, or even 

physical assault, from boyfriends 

who felt threatened by 

the prospect of their 

independence. 

The frequent cycling on and 

off the rolls challenges the 

common perception of a welfare 

mother as a woman who has 

never worked. And it suggest 

that Congress faces a doubly 

difficult challenge as it seeks 

to overhaul the system — not 

simply getting women into 

jobs, but keeping them there. 

WASHINGTON D.C. — The 

Clinton Administration's plan 

for maintaining order in Haiti 

has been thrown into jeopardy 

by the disappearance of most 

of the 7,000 Haitian soldiers 

and police officers who were to 

be candidates for a temporary 

force, senior American military 

and civilian officials say. 

But with no good alternative, 

the United States is plunging 

ahead with a patchwork system 

in the hope of allowing 

American troops to hand off 

policing duties, which they 

accepted only reluctantly. 

Justice Department experts 

are to begin training a new, 

permanent Haitian police force 

in January. 

Administration officials con- 

sider the task of policing Haiti's 

streets to be the biggest head-

LONDON — During a radio

The fact that the secondhighest

Clinton — and did not create 

much of a fuss in doing so — 

was one more indication of how

On Northern Ireland, serious

that it has arrested dozens of

including the bomber. 

No details were given about

Some Palestinians waved off

WEST PIKELAND, Pa. - 

When educators talk about the

The Dowingtown Area 

School District, about 30 miles

district's only high school — to 

3,600 students. Parents see a

asked the state Education

secede. 

"We're mad as hell, and we

Rev. Joseph A. Fitzmyer, SJ. of the Catholic University of America 

recently offered views on present day Biblical interpretation. 

Apartments dedicated 


apartments and their role in the 

future of the University. "With 

the development of West Campus, 

the University takes an important 

step in its movement towards the 

year 2000... They [the apartments] 

serve as a reflection of 

what is to come," Drobile said. 

"The apartment buildings 

speak for themselves through 

sheer elegance and functionality," 

said Dobbin. The naming of the 

buildings demonstrates the Uni- 

versity's commitment to tradition, 

he added. "West Campus bespeaks 

Villanova's commitment to its 

students. . . The buildings symbol- 

ize the University's commitment 

to providing its students only the 

best academic and support services," 

he added. 

Dobbin then commended 

Arthur Halloran, member of the 

Board of Trustees, for his role in 

designing the buildings. Halloran 

strove to maintain the stone 

gothic facade of the buildings, he 

said. Dobbin also thanked the Rev. 

Peter Donahue who was responsible 

for organizing the dedication 

ceremony.

St. Thomas of Villanova then

Biblical scholar presents lecture 

By JONATHAN KLICK 

Assistant News Editor 

Noted Bible scholar the Rev. 

Joseph A. Fitzmyer, SJ., presented 

a lecture titled, "The Intgerpretation 

of the Bible Today," in the 

Villanova Room of the Connelly 

Center Oct. 12. Fitzmyer, current- 

ly professor emeritus and professorial 

lecturer in New Testament 

at the Catholic University of 

America, is a member of the 

Pontifical Biblical Commission 

and is author or editor of 30 books. 

The presentation, which consisted 

of a reading of Fitzmyer's paper 

on Bible interpretation and an 

audience question and answer 

period, was given to an overflow 

crowd made up of students, 

faculty from local colleges and 

other community members. 

"Biblical interpretation has 

gone through its ups and downs," 

Fitzmyer said. He said that the 

rationalistic attitudes employed 

during the Age of Enlightenment 

rejected the idea of divine revela- 

tion. Because of this, the Bible 

was used by these scholars as a 

fallible source of historical information. 

Fitzmyer called this 

approach "upsetting." 

To safeguard against this criticism, 

Pope Leo XIII set up the 

Pontifical Biblical Commission. 

According to Fitzmyer, the commission's 

mission was to further 

biblical study and the "historical/ 

critical" method of Bible study. He 

said that this method attempted 

to place the religious writings in 

the Bible in their proper historical 

context by comparing them to 

other writings of the time. In 

regard to the Gospels, this allowed 

scholars to divide the writings 

into three categories: Jesus' 

actions and sayings. His disciples' 

preachings and the evangelists' 

synthesization of the events. 

Fitzmyer said that these advances 

in Catholic scholarship aided 

ecumenism by bringing Catholics 

and Protestants closer together in 

their interpretation of the Bible. 

"[It] liberated Catholics from 

fundamentalism," he said. 

Fitzmyer went on to discuss the 

Pontifical Biblical Commission's 

1993 document concerning the 

interpretation of the Bible in the 

Catholic Church. He said the 

Special Olympians showcase talent 

By LINDA GRZYB 


For the sixth year, the University 

will host the Special Olympics 

Fall Festival Nov. 11-13. Approximately 

850 athletes, representing 

38 areas of the state, will showcase 

their talent during the weekend. 

Athletes participate in five areas 

of competition: in-line skating, 

long distance running, power 

lifting, soccer and volleyball. 

Following guidelines set by 

Olympic standards, the Olympians 

train all year for their events. 

According to Festival Director 

Andy Ranley, the biggest misconception 

about the event is "people 

think that the kids come and 

throw on a uniform and play 

games. They are athletes. We call 

them athletes because they train 

hard." 

Students, staff and friends are 

encouraged to join the athletes in 

the festivities. The weekend is 

well-planned for those involved 

with the competition. There will 

be a preliminary competition in all 

of the athletic areas Friday, Nov. 

11. The weekend will officially 

begin with the Opening Ceremonies 

which include a procession 

of athletes and opening messages 

from the Rev. Edmund J. Dobbin, 

O.S.A., University president; 

Jeffrey Lurie, owner of the Philadelphia 

Eagles; Thomas Book- 

shire, former Eagle; and Bill 

Deneby, spokesperson for the 

physically impaired. The climax 

of the evening will feature live 

music and fireworks. 

The University campus will 

transform into 'Olympic Town' 

Saturday, Nov. 12. In addition to 

the centers of athletic competition, 

activities will be held all over 

campus. IBM will sponsor a computerized 

friend match-up service; 

AT&T will provide 10 mobile 

phones for the athletes to phone 

home. Various campus organizations 

will set up activity booths 

around campus as well. Stationary 

bicycles will be set up in front . 

of video screens at the Connelly 

Center and there will be an opportunity 

for athletes to make photo 

buttons and T-shirts. 

There will be a dance Saturday 

night at the Hilton Hotel in King 

of Prussia for both the athletes 

and their supporters. University 

students are also invited to attend. 

This year, there will be a cowboy 

theme and all guests are encouraged 

to come in costume. 

Sunday will finish off the weekend 

of the Fall Festival. There will 

be a final round of competition as 

well as an awards ceremony in the 

morning. At 1:30 p.,m., Mrs. 

Pennsylvania will draw the weekend 

to a close by ihtroducing a 

video presentation of the 

weekend. 

Special Olympics came to the 

University many years ago when 

athletes competed in a soccer 

tournament on campus. Six years 

ago, when Villanova decided to 

open up competition to more 

athletes and broaden the areas of 

contest, the Fall Festival was 

born. It currently ranks as the 

second largest event in the state. 

Adding to the uniqueness of the 

Fall Festival is that most of the 

nearly 2,000 volunteers are Villan 

ova students. 

The leadership committee for 

Special Olympics was selected 

last February. Under the guidance 

of Special Olympics Advisor 

Randy Farmer, director of Student 

Development, the committee 

organized the event. Any student, 

staff or faculty member who 

would like to volunteer a few 

hours of his or her time during 

the weekend is invited to stop by 

the Special Olympics Office, 108 

Dougherty Hall. "There are a lot 

of special people out there for the 

weekend, but the real heroes are 

the athletes," said Farmer. 

commission studied the Church's 

methods of interpretation, hermeneutical 

devices in Scripture, 

characteristics of Catholic inter- 

pretation and the role of interpretation 

in the Catholic Church. 

The commission attempted to 

situate the Bible in the living 

tradition of the Church, according 

to Fitzmyer. He also said that the 

commission set limits and guide- 

lines for the modernization of the 

Bible. 

Fitzmyer then discussed the 

importance of the discovery of the 

Dead Sea Scrolls. He called the 

finding the "greatest manuscript 

discovery of modern time in rela- 

tion to the Bible." The scrolls are 

important because they show how 

ancient Jews interpreted the Old 

Testament and they "give us a 

more accurate understanding of 

how the Bible came to be," said 

Fitzmyer. They help us under- 

'^^^^îW^^Ri 

stand that "God's word did not 

drop from heaven," he said. He 

closed the presentation by saying 

that proper interpretation can 

only be achieved through an 

understanding • 

beginnings. 

of Jewish 

Fitzmyer was questioned about 

the Pontifical Biblical Commission's 

role in the new catechism 

released by the Vatican. He said 

the Commission had nothing to do 

with the development of the new 

catechism. "[That is a] perfect 

example of the way certain elements 

in the Vatican manipulate 

Scripture," he added. 

An audience member asked if 

Fitzmyer's faith had been 

enhanced by his study of the 

Bible. He answered by saying, "Of 

course... The more you understand 

about the background, the 

more you understand what's 

going on with faith." 

SAE fundraiser aids 

'Nova Bigs and Litties 

By KATHLEEN COONEY 

News Editor 

A Magicomedian sponsored by 

Sigma Alpha Epsilon (SAE) will 

perform Tuesday, Nov. 8, in the 

Connelly Center Cinema. Proceeds 

will benefit Villanova Bigs 

and Littles. 

Rom Geoffries is a magician 

comedian who performs especially 

for college students, said Vincent 

Grosso, a brother of SAE. Geoff- 

ries' humor is not off-color but not 

intended for children, he said. 

/ can guarantee people 

win liave fun if they 

sliow up. 

Vincent Grosso, member of SAE 

fraternity 

Geoffries received his B.A. in 

theatre/speech at Trenton State 

Collie and then studied theatre 

at Middlesex Polytechnic in London. 

His abilities include unicy- 

cling, fire and smoke effects, 

baton twirling and balloon sculp- 

ture, among other things. 

Grosso saw Geoffries perform 

at the Society of American Magicians 

last year and decided to hire 

Goeffries to perform at the Uni- 

versity because "he's hilarious," 

said Grosso. The Society of American 

Magicians is a national 

organization which consists of 

local assemblies, said Grosso.' 

These assemblies consist of about 

100 people who meet once a month 

to share their talents. "It's a 

gathering of magicians," he 

added. 

The proceeds will benefit Villanova 

Bigs and Littles because it 

is an on-campus organization. 

Gross said. "SAE is sponsoring 

them to try to do more things for 

University organizations," he 

said. "If we sell all the tickets we 

can raise about $800,000 he added. 

That money has a greater effect 

for on-campus organizations than 

it does for off-campus organiza- 

tions which have other ways to 

obtain money. 

Tickets are $5 and will be sold 

next Tuesday and Wednesday 

outside Connelly Center and the 

dining halls. Signs will also be 

posted around campus. "We'll 

harass people any way we can," 

said Grosso. 

"I just want to go see him 

perform," Gross said. "I can 

guarantee people will have fun if 

they show up," he added. 

Sigma Alpha Epsilon will present Ron Geoffries Tuesday, Nov. 8 in 

UmneUy Center Cinema. Proceeds wiU benefit the Villanova Bigs and 

Littles program.

Homecoming Weekend: 

* 

Coming home to celebration, 

coming iiome to ineliriation 

It's finally here. The weekend youVe been waiting 

for. You Ve heard the sordid tales; perhaps you've told 

a few yourself. And now it's time to relive the memories 

and create some new ones. 

But before you make like sheep and herd, en masse 

toward Sheehan Beach, there are a few things you must 

bear in mind so that your Homecoming is one to remember. 

Or not remember, depending upon your condition at the 

end of the day. 

Patience is a virtue, one that' can be especially admired 

and appreciated by those standing in beer lines longer 

than the distance from goal line to goal line in the vacant 

Villanova Stadium. Be kind to the person standing in front 

of you. No shoving, please. 

And after standing, imbibing and mingling with 

alums for all of those hours, nature will inevitably call. 

And when that phone rings, there are only a few 

designated, University-sanctioned areas where it will 

listen. And we at the Villanovan don't mean the bushes 

along Lancaster Avenue. Kindly use those facilities 

reserved for the relief of any and all of your bodily 

functions. The shrubs behind Austin and St. Rita's Halls 

do not an appropriate nor comfortable bathroom make. 

'Now that you've gotten the basics down, maybe it 

would be a good idea to think about what Homecoming 

is supposed to mean, not what a lot of drunken, overly- 

restricted undergraduates perceive it to be. 

It's not just unending beer lines and abused 

shrubbery. Believe it or not, the meaning of Homecoming 

runs deeper. Enjoy yourself, enjoy your friends, enjoy the 

weekend. Take stock in what you value at Villanova and 

what your years here have meant to you so that your 

Homecoming a few years from now is one you won't want 

to forget. 

Is there any method 

to this year's madness? 

What do Eric Clapton, Juice Newton, Billy Idol and 

Wilson Pickett have in common? Given their lyrical 

interest in the midnight hour, we at the Villanovan can 

only conclude that these diverse singers would be 

disappointed in our school's decision to hold Wildcat Roar 

'94 at the bland prime-time hour of 8 p.m. 

Two years ago Villanova implemented the Midnight 

Madness basketball celebration for the first time. It was 

a roaring success both that year and the following one. 

The graveyard shift timing of the event certainly 

contributed to the hyper-festive atmosphere of the 

previous two years. Only the stalwart fans who were 

willing to celebrate late into the mornini? showed nn hut 

these diehards were enough to fill duPont Pavilion to near- 

capacity. 

The earlier start of this year's answer to Midnight 

Madness will certainly draw more people to duPont, 

especially with all the extra guests who will appear for 

Homecoming. DuPont will probably not be able to hold 

all the people who want to attend. 

With the new ticket distribution plan, many student 

fans will be shut out of the regular-season basketball 

games at 'Nova this year. It would be nice if Villanova 

were able to accommodate all of these students for one 

night, even if this required a wait until the clock strikes 

midnight.

Strange bedfellows unite against North campaign 

By RICH WEBSTER 

All will be held accountable. 

Oliver North's candidacy is 

serious and what was once a 

funny little joke — the quirky 

fable of the Goof in Cowboy Boots 

— has mutated into a fearsome 

account of the Creature from the 

Black Lagoon and his>improbable 

run for Virginia's Senate seat. 

Who knew? 

I did, and unless you've been 

holed up in the cellar with a 

dominatrix you'd know where I'm 

coming from. We're not going to 

mince words any longer. It's 

survival, it's our sanity and it 

could be the Seventh Sign. 

And that's something I don't 

feel I could deal with right now. 

Maybe when I turn 60 years old 

and I've grown roots into a beaten 

barcalounger, drooling on my 

rolling beach of a stomach I'll cry 

out for the END. But that's 40 

years down the line and I haven't 

been to Amsterdam yet. 

So you comprehend the urgency 

of this situation. Don't you? 

What I'm trying to say is that 

Oliver North is a wolf who doesn't 

even bother to skin a sheep so he 

can appear harmless. He doesn't 

buy into the "meek shall inherit 

the Earth" theory. No, no, no my 

sons and daughters; according to 

North, "weak men fear strong 

men," and North is a strong man, 

a virtuous family man, a patriotic 

man leading us sinners down the 

path of the righteous. And he'll 

bury a Maxi-ball "expansion" 

slug in the ear of a deer before 

you can protect your face from the 

splatter of the blood. 

Yes, I've seen the kaleidoscopic 

light, my children, and in its 

center I saw a uniformed man 

sporting a 20-gauge Browning 

shotgun, the Bible and a chastity 

belt while riding on the hairy 

hump of a rabid bull elephant. 

Mine eyes have seen the glory . . . 

So let's get down to it. 

Oliver North is an honest man 

and it is the rest of us who are 

the deceivers. North was not 

guilty of obstructing Congress, 

shredding government documents 

or of illegally accepting a home 

security system as a gift. 

Oh no, don't you dare say that. 

Remember, it was that liberal 

niugwump of a president who had 

his lips wrapped around a mari- 

LETTERS 

juana joint. North is violently 

allergic to all forms of narcotics; 

he can't get within 100 yards of 

the stuff without his nose growing 

to three times its original size. He 

is too pure. He is an angel. 

And I've made the necessary 

arrangements and reservations 

for myself in the Land Below: 

Hades. I've packed my bags and 

look forward to the heat. 

And I ain't alone. 

Ronald Reagan, Gen. Norman 

Schwartzkopf, Colin Powell, 

former Secretary of State George 

Schultz and former Navy Secre- 

tary James Webb have all contacted 

me and offered to share the gas 

money. But as the Gipper was 

strapping my luggage to the roof 

of the car, Norman stood wide and 

suggested we make a stand. And 

so we shall. 

Oliver North is amassing the 

denizens of the Right Way to fight 

the Good Battle. He has corralled 

Phil Gramm, Jack Kemp, the 

fiendish Pat Buchanan and Dick 

Cheney — all simpering presidential 

hopefuls with no hope. He 

broke the will of Bob Dole, once 

a strong and proud man who now 

prefers the comfort of a small 

closet and his stuffed bunny 

wabbit. He is OUie's man. 

And yes, poor little Dan Quayle 

has been roped into the ugly web; 

he didn't stand a chance against 

the greasy marine. Such was his 

submission that every third Saturday 

of the month he is obligated 

to don the uniform of a French 

maid and wait on the North 

household (occasionally playing 

footsies under the dining room 

table with the good Colonel). 

And rounding out this sick 

army is Buck McNeely, the selfproclaimed 

King of the Rednecks, 

and the three-headed political gila 

monster: the Christian Coalition, 

the NRA and Operation Rescue 

(the extremist Pro-Life vigilantes). 

Only Bush remains in the shadows, 

his lone show of support 

being a half-hearted letter issued 

from under a rock in the prairie^ 

of the Lone Star State. Smart boy, 

Georgie. 

North is dangerous and strange 

— an unhealthy concoction. He 

wants to install prayer in public 

schools, reverse all gun control, 

shut down the NEA, eradicate the 

EPA ("extremist pandering agency," 

he says) and basically turn 

Weekenil celebration 

praised by parents 

To the Editor: 

We write to thank the Villanova 

community for a wonderful Par- 

ents' Weekend. Our entire visit 

was enjoyable, from Friday night's 

"home-cooked" meal in the lovely 

new Rudolph Hall to Sunday's 

sumptuous Champagne Brunch. 

Our four years as Villanova parents 

have brought many such 

positive experiences, and we 

thank the busy committees who 

helped plan for us. 

Saturday's sunshine warmed 

our cookout on West Campus and 

made the loss at the Stadium 

easier to bear. The cheerleaders, 

team and band did their best to 

entertain us, and their efforts are 

saluted. 

We met many other Sig Ep 

parents at the reception the fra- 

ternity hosted at The Wild Onion 

and knew immediately why our 

son Patrick chose their sons as 

friends. It was fun to meet the 

parents of the fine young men who 

have visited our home and who 

have welcomed us so often at 


Sunday morning's Mass was 

beautiful from the Entrance of 

Flags and Clergy to the last note 

sung. The sense of community 

was warm and strong. We are 

proud to be part of the Villanova 

family and thank all who planned 

this 1994 Parents' Weekend. We'll 

see you at Graduation!

as the army stands now the U.S.

He will wage war against the 

weird 20-somethings with long 

hair and earrings and he will fly 

that old Confederate flag. Yee-Ha. 

But ask him about any of the 

above and he will deny it ALL. It's 

not what he said, he was tired, 

misquoted, misunderstood. He

Clinton takes pressing problems to media 

By JOE PATTERSON 

A new day is dawning in 

America. 

Nearly two years after Bill 

Clinton's election, change is final- 

ly in the air. And it is certainly 

not the change that the chief 

executive had envisioned. 

Peter Jennings recently took to 

the airwaves to lament the state 

of Bill Clinton's presidency. Jennings 

was clearly mystified and 

seemed unusually perturbed that, 

with a recovering economy, Clinton's 

ratings remained rather 

inauspicious. 

Just possibly, the American 

people, despite what Mr. Jennings 

and his cohorts would like you to 

believe, have feelings that extend 

slightly deeper than the 

pocketbook. 

In a recent poll, the number of 

people who thought the country 

was headed in the wrong direction 

was twice that of those who 

thought that progress was being 

made. In fact, in recent months, 

the fraction who believed that the 

Clinton-led America was headed 

in the right direction * was an 

alarmingly low 19 percent. This 

number has sluggishly improved 

in the past few days, but it still 

represents powerful feelings of 

disenchantment and abandonment. 

These feelings extend beyond 

the conservatives in America. In 

fact, groups that steadfastly supported 

Clinton in the past have 

become his biggest critics. Walter 

Williams, a black syndicated 

columnist, while discussing contemporary 

liberal policies, recent- 

ly said, "I have no doubt that 

blacks are about to become the 

staunchest conservative group in 

America." Jesse Jackson, an avid 

Clinton supporter during the 1992 

campaign, expressed that he was 

"sadly disappointed" with Clinton's 

programs. Clinton has been 

promising results that his programs 

simply cannot produce. 

And even his most faithful followers 

are growing tired of the 

monotonous pattern of broken 

promises. 

Clinton has scored recent vic- 

tories with his Crime Bill and the 

situation in Haiti. Nevertheless, 

his approval ratings have shown 

only a minimal upswing. His 

fundraisers for Democratic candi- 

dates have beerf major disappointments 

and many candidates have 

made a point to avoid any connection 

with commander-in-chief. 

Clinton is clearly concerned. 

So, in a true time of need, the 

President has turned to his friends 

in the media for help. Hoping that 

the problems facing his presidency 

are simply a matter of public 

perception, he has invited representatives 

of ABC, CBS, Time 

Magazine, Associated Press and 

CNN to the White House for a 

meal and a chit-chat. They were 

asked to give advice on image 

control. Maybe, however, the 

problem is more than just a 

superficial concept of image. 

What has alienated voters in his 

tendency to talk out of both sides 

of his mouth. One moment, he 

attacked the "religious right" for 

letting their religious beliefs 

influence their politics. In the 

next moment, he was speaking 

from a church pulpit declaring 

that the Crime Bill was the "will 

of God" and designating the 

presidency a religious ministry. 

On a separate occasion, Mr. Clinton 

interpreted Bible passages (in 

his own unique style) and proclaimed, 

"I'm going to tell 

I know the truth to be." 

what 

This instance only typifies 

Clinton's entire presidency. He 

sends distinctly contradictory 

messages, leaving the American 

people devoid of any faith in him 

or his governing capacity. 

There has been no major destructive 

influence that has led to

Take more than a glimpse at 

the changingfaces of Villanova 

By CHRISTINE MULLER 


"Racism — it's here and it 

sucks" declared the blunt 

announcement for the Oct. 5 

racism forum sponsored by the 

Villanova chapter of the International 

Committee Against Racism 

(INCAR) and the Student Government 

Association (SGA). 

On a campus often referred to 

as "Vanillanova," such a characterization 

elicits reactions varying 

from a welcome at the overdue 

realization, to mild surprise or 

even outright shock at the revelation. 

Essentially, the pronouncement 

provokes a number of ques- 

tions, such as what exactly is 

racism, and how is it manifested? 

Is it presently here in the Villanova 

community? 

The forum itself, which consisted 

of a panel of seven represent 

tatives from various cultural 

organizations on campus, provided 

insight into the personal 

experiences of both non-white and 

white students. 

A member of Villanova Hillel, 

an organization for students of the 

Jewish faith, spoke of her discomfort 

freshman year when a fellow 

student made an insulting stereotypical 

remark about Jewish 

people. 

David Greason, vice president 

of the SGA and the representative 

from the Minority Student 

League, also recounted an expe- 

rience with prejudice early in his 

freshman year when a fellow 

student assumed that because of 

his race he must be an athlete. 

Sneha Patel, a representative of 

the South Asian Multicultural 

Organization of Students of Amer- 

ica (SAMOSA), recalled an incident 

in the summer before her 

freshman year when her assigned 

roommate changed rooms t)efore 

classes had even begun; Patel 

later learned that the switch 

resulted from the ex-roommate's I 

hesitation to live with someone 

with an Indian cultural heritage. 

In each of these cases, a Villanova 

student reported a direct 

experience with racism early in 

his/her college career. For Grea- 

son, this "shaped my perception 

of Villanova and motivated me to 

change things," yet the panelists 

know that for other minority 

students, such experiences prove 

intimidating deterrents which 

lead to decisions to transfer. One 

audience member said "it was 

little things every day" which 

made her position as an African- 

American at Villanova difficult. 

"It's not fair." Even as a junior, 

she still considers transferring to 

another school. 

The panel included a white 

student as well, who spoke of her 

own discomfort at a schoolsponsored 

event when she and her 

friends tried to join a circle of 

minority students, but were told 

to leave. Her account reflected 

INCAR member Hyun Lee's conviction 

that "you can't justify 

returning racism as a reaction." 

Lee pointed out at an INCAR 

meeting held the Monday after the 

forum that, "We are capable of 

racism as well." 

At the INCAR meeting, which 

occurs Mondays at 5 p.m. in the 

Peace and Justice Center, 

members discussed reactions to 

the forum. Faculty advisor and 

sociology professor Dr. Peter 

Knapp regretted that there were 

"an awful lot more people that we 

didn't reach than we did," but 

that in the end, "It didn't go well 

— it was terrific." "An awful lot 

of things like that at Villanova 

have been smaller. It made 

changes in the types of issues that 

were raised." Knapp said. "It was 

a step forward, and not a step 

backward." 

INCAR's future plans include 

peer education through residence 

hall programs — "not only dialogue, 

but steps in a certain 

direction... doing something 

about it," according to founder Raj 

Chablani. My Padmalingam suggested 

an "intercultural center to 

develop good things about how 

different groups work together." 

INCAR began in the spring of 

last year, after Chablani, Padmalingam 

and Knapp attended a 

conference with other schools 

who already had INCAR chapters. 

Although Knapp "had not espe- 

cially thought of starting a Villanova 

chapter of INCAR," l)ecause 

he didn't "think of Villanova as 

being a very activist campus." "It 

was really necessary here," said 

Chablani. "I thought this would 

be a good way of getting rid of 

racism at Villanova. 

With about seven or eight 

members, INCAR addresses "all 

forms of discrimination, such as 

sexism, classism, and others," 

said Chablani. "Right now we're 

focusing on the education aspect," 

through monthly forums such as 

the one held Oct. 5, said Chablani. 

Padmalingam foresees "Our 

inquiry about admissions policy." 

He finds "the problem with 

INCAR right now is we have so 

many great people, but they're too 

involved in other activities to 

devote enough energy solely to 

INCAR. As a result, recruitment 

of new members is a priority." 

INCAR hopes to break some of 

the stereotypes that are persistent 

at Villanova, said Padmalingam. 

"You have your good days and you 

have your bad days," he added. 

"We all need to put in more effort" 

toward a better atmosphere. 

"From my own experience, 

prejudice is a human thing, but 

if I let it stop me from getting to 

know someone, there'll always he 

that ignorance and fear," said 

Chablani. He feels it's important 

to "realize there's much more to 

a person than just that one 

factor." 

Jill Tabachnick, a member of 

INCAR, is also the Social Action 

Committee Chair for the Student 

Government Association (SGA). 

The committee, geared toward 

"raising campus awareness about 

social issues," has a "Unity 

Begins With You" campaign 

which focuses on different topics 

for each month of the year. They 

sponsor different programs 

"designed to facilitate student 

conversation and eliminate campus 

apathy," devoting October to 

the issue of racism. 

"Racism is such a big problem 

that you just have to attack it in 

whatever small way you can. 

Villanova is not immune to racism 

and so this is a good place to 

start," said Tabachnick. "I 

thought it was a good start, but 

I thought it [the racism forum] 

could have l)een better attended. 

"I wish I could figure out how to 

get more people to come to these 

things," she said. "The more 

people come to them, the more 

voices are heard." 

Greason, also a member of 

INCAR, made a point of joining 

all the minority associations on 

campus. He founded the Minority 

Student League in order to create 

"a chance for all minority students 

to voice their concerns to each 

other." As vice president of the 

SGA, he provides a close link 

between his "political action 

committee" and student government, 

making the SGA responsi- 

ble to minority students. 

"Race relations here have 

improved dramatically over the 

three years that I've been here," 

%* 

said Greason. "Miles are to be 

traveled before racial tolerance 

and understanding" can be 

achieved. "There are people here 

who are willing to fight against 

it, but we may not see a final 

victory for 10 to 20 years — a sad 

statement, but a realistic one," he 

added, he explained, "racism 

affects all people." 

In regard to the roots of racism, 

Chablani finds "a lot of it's based 

on ignorance and fear — the fact 

that people don 't know why people 

are different, they just see a 

difference." He adds "color has 

been used as a dividing factor" in 

competition, but he feels that 

"exposure to the differences and 

learning what they're all about 

would help a lot." 

Knapp said "Racism is a lot of 

things. . . one is attitudinal racism, 

which is hooked to real differences 

in life chances and resources of 

people which are linked to practices 

that are discriminatory." 

"Attitudinal racism isn't all of it 

and sometimes not the most 

important," Knapp said. "To 

address racism without institu- 

tional racism would be a real 

mistake. The racism without 

institutional stuff is so much 

easier to address. You don't run 

into too much resistance — very 

few people say 'no, no I want to 

be a racist,' " he added. 

"INCAR is very explicit that 

racism is not just a black and 

white issue," said Knapp as he 

explained other minority groups 

suffer from racism which "can 

explode into intensely malignant 

forces." In the United States 

black-white racism is "much, 

much more serious than any other 

kind." 

"Large structures of inequality 

and segregation are the crucial 

roots, said Knapp. They then 

combine with competition. . . and 

conflicts that sometimes 

escalate." 

In regard to Villanova, Knapp 

said, the campus "tends to be a 

very all-white campus. Minority 

students tend to be somewhat 

segregated and they tend to be a 

relatively small presence." 

In Patel's case, Knapp suggests 

the roommate's motivation as 

from accommodation of the status 

quo," or a perception that it "was 

a real disadvantage to be rooming 

with a student" of Indian 

heritage.

'Novdns past and present remember Homecoming I ^î pottet, lager ... a beer is a beer, or is it? 

By JENNIFER L. SMITH 


By 1969, 25 years ago, Homecoming 

was the featured event of 

the social pages in the Belle Air. 

Kegs, fake IDs, long lines at the Homecoming began 

present day form. 

to take its 

Porto-Potties and inevitable hangovers. 

Is this what Homecoming 

at Villanova has always been like? 

I had the opportunity to 

research Homecomings past. I 

pored over pictures, captions, and 

stories in the Belle Air yearbooks. 

Dating back to 1922, the Belle Air 

is a great source of memories. 

Charlie O'Connor, former pres- 

ident of the Alumni Association, 

Villanova graduate and editor of 

the 1938 Belle Air, attended Villanova 

when Bartley, Sheehan 

and Stanford were not buildings, 

but leading men at the University. 

It was a long time ago. 

He recalls Homecoming as,

Spanish Journal: Student goes continent hopping 

By MICHAEL B. MURRAY 


Martes 

California had a pretty serious 

earthquake today. I just found out 

about it on the news and can't 

exactly tell what happened. I'm so 

frustrated because I see these 

pictures of collapsed highways 

and buildings and can't understand 

what they're saying. Just 

called home and no answer. Los 

Angeles phones aren't working. 

I'm really worried about my 

family. And Liz. I can't imagine 

anything happening to them. 

Jueves 

. . .after lunch, I hung out at El 

Arriero (a neighborhood bar-cafe) 

and got hooked up with some free 

beers from Javier's dad (the 

owner). Then he took one of those 

raw legs of pig that was hanging 

on the wall with the hair still on 

and everything, cut off a piece and 

gave it to me — raw meat! I told 

him I wasn't hungry, but he took 

offense and told me it was "bueni- 

1 

i 

simo" so I decided to eat some of 

it. It wasn't half bad. Pretty good 

actually. I just hope I don't get 

tapeworms. 

Viemes 

After classes today, Josh, 

Christy, Alicia, Chris, and I took 

off for Africa. Africa! Africa is 

what you read about when you're 

a little kid — this far away land 

with tigers, lions and camels. A 

mysterious place with mysterious 

people. . 

. . .once in Morocco, we had to 

get a cab to the mountain village 

of "Chef-chowin'." (Nobody knew 

how to pronounce it, but it 

sounded like "chef-chowin.") 

Josh's "Let's Go" book said we 

could get a two hour cab ride to 

the village for about 1(X) dirhams 

($10 USD). 

Our lowest offer was 350 

dirhams! 

We figured we'd go to each of 

the cab drivers to get them to 

compete with each other and drive 

the price down. This would've 

been easy had it not been for 

another guy who looked like 

Saddam Hussein dressed in a 

hooded, burlap potato-sack gown. 

Sorta' reminded me of Obe-One- 

Kenoby. Well, it turns out that 

this guy was the mack-daddy 

taxicab godfather, and he followed 

us wherever we went, making 

sure the cab drivers didn't compete 

in price. 

It started to pour so we went 

inside a shabby restaurant to grab 

some chow. We wandered through 

'a thick haze of hashish smoke and 

ordered spicy soup, bread and 

mineral water. Most of the men 

sitting at the round, wooden 

tables were stoned. It was as if 

we were in the middle of some 

Cheech and Chong movie. Everyone 

just stared at us — the 

flashy foreign Americans who had 

just entered their country. Later, 

when we were eating our meal, 

one of the men offered to buy 

Christy for half a herd of cattle. 

The thing was, he was serious. 

He was also dressed like Obe

Night Club enlivens campus 

By ERIN SHEA 


In the beginning of the year, a 

long fought Student Government 

Association battle was won. Villanova 

University opened its longawaited 

night club. On Thursday, 

Friday and Saturday nights, the 

Campus Activities Team (CAT) 

transforms the Belle Air Terrace 

in the Connelly Center into the 

Villanova Night Club. 

The club opened in September 

with the band Flaming Caucasians. 

Since then, the club has had 

a variety of entertainment. 

Previous acts have included 

comedian Jeff Brown, DJ.s from 

WXVU, and several local bands. 

Karaoke night and an open 

microphone night have also been 

featured in an effort to give all 

students a chance to be a real part 

of the night club. 

CAT committee members said 

they try to have some order to how 

they book the various acts. On 

Thursday nights, the club usually 

has local bands come to Villanova. 

Friday nights are used for student 

acts and participation, such as 

open microphone night. Saturday 

nights are reserved for DJ. dance 

nights. 

For most of these events admission 

is free. However, if the night 

club does have to charge an 

entrance fee, it is usually only two 

or three dollars at the door. 

Sophomore Wendy Tucker 

emphasized the night club's purpose 

when she said, "It gives the 

students a place to come together 

on campus; it gives them another 

outlet." 

Natalie Gregory, vice president 

in charge of public relations for 

CAT, agrees, but insists that, 'if 

there were more student attendance, 

the club would get bigger 

and better." 

Sophomore Katie Kessenich, 

another committee member, 

agrees. "We want to get more well 

known bands, but we can't without 

a higher attendance," said 

Kessenich. "We can't just start 

out with Pearl Jam, we need 

people to come and make the night 

club successful."

Listeners will find Iscor/of a rare treat 

By CARA BECKERICH 


Smashing Pumpkins have tiiumphed 

once again. The 

release of their fourth album, 

Pisces Iscariot, has proven them 

to be, well, absolutely smashing. 

This new release actually con- 

tains nothing new. Rather, it is 

a collection of B-sides and previously 

unreleased material. In 

the liner notes of this rare 14 track 

collection, lead singer Billy Corgan, 

writes, "This here is an 

assemblage of. . .songs never 

meant to come out, some written 

with such high hopes. ; 

." 

Pisces Iscariot has not one dull 

track amidst its grooves. Corgan's 

incredible voice, atop guitarist 

James Iha's wailing chords, makes 

for a delectable taste of what the 

Pumpkins are all about. Iha comes 

out from behind the scenes on this 

album, baring his writing and 

producing abilities on his plea- 

santly sweet song "Blew Away." 

On tracks like "Plume" ("My 

boredom has outshined the sunit's 

all duU/I just want to have 

some little fun"), "Whir" ("Been 

chasing all my fears for another 

brighter than you") and "Starla" 

PHmmkmcmM

("No one else can do for you like 

you/no one else fails like me/In 

my eyes I burn alive/Fly high/No 

more words just you and I/High 

in the sky"), Corgan's lyrical 

genius, master writing skills and 

ability to passionately growl one 

second and gently whisper the 

next are clearly present. 

Freddy is less frightening in real world 

By KAREN GOULART 

Assistant Entertainment Editor 

^^WT^s 

Craven's 'New 

VY Nightmare' " is not a 

sequel. Why, it is not even a 

movie, at least that is what Mr. 

Craven would like audiences to 

believe, r Ten 

years after Freddy 

Krueger first slashed his way into 

the nightmares of moviegoers 

across the globe he has finally 

broken- out of the big screen and 

into so-called real life. No longer 

content to do his dastardly deeds 

in dreamland, this time around 

Freddy has decided to reek his 

unique brand of havoc on the 

already frightening waking 

world. 

Although this "Nightmare" is 

supposedly unrelated to its many 

predecessors. Craven does use the 

usual opening scene which 

involves dropping viewers unwittingly 

into a nightmare "in media 

res." The nightmare in question 

is that of Heather Langenkamp, 

the actress who portrayed the 

heroine Nancy in "Nightmares" 

parts one and three. It is complete 

with blazing fires, a disembodied 

razor fingered hand and the echoing 

cackles of Freddy Krueger. 

There is no Nancy now, however, 

she is just a character that 

Heather played in the movies. 

This does not deter the everresiliant 

Freddy though, to him 

Heather will always be Nancy and 

he will not rest until he captures 

her soul, the crowning jewel of his 

extensive collection. 

Heather is now a married woman 

(her husband Chase is also in 

the horror business as a special 

effects man who just happens to 

be put in charge of making an 

updated Freddy glove for the next 

movie) and mother of a young son 

Dylan (superbly played by sevenyear-old 

Miko Hughes). She thinks 

Freddy Krueger is a part of her 

past, far behind her. Unfortunately, 

poor Heather could not be 

further from the truth. Not only 

is Freddy creeping his way into 

her dreams, he is set on getting 

his claws into her real life family 

as well. Little by little. Heather 

begins to realize that Freddy has 

become a lot more than just a 

fictional foe from her past. 

Through conversations with old 

"Nightmare" co-stars (Robert 

Englund is amusing, though still 

creepy, as himself) and New Line 

Cinema executives she finds that 

she is not alone in her hypothesis 

that Freddy is no longer confined 

to celluloid. Everyone of the 

"Nightmare" alumni who she 

speaks to has been visited by the 

gloved-one both in and out of the 

REM cycle. 

It is obvious that "Wes Craven's 

New Nightmare" is not typical 

horror movie fare. Unlike Freddy's 

earlier escapades, "New Nightmare" 

is not a non-stop slashfest. 

Instead, the film often deals with 

real life horrors such as losing a 

loved one and discovering one's

child may be a victim of mental 

ilness. This is not to say that 

"Nightmare" does not have some 

great moments of gore (the demise 

of Dylan's babysitter and the 

funeral scene should satisfy even 

the most discriminating Freddy 

fanatic). It is just that they are 

fewer and- further between than 

may be expected. 

Although it is certainly a change 

of pace to see a "thinking person's 

horror film," there are many 

scenes that cause severe yawning 

spells. Craven is so anxious about 

The first single released off of 

Pisces Iscariot, "Landslide" ("I 

saw my reflection in a snowcovered 

hill/'till landslide brought 

it down/Mirror in the sky what 

is love? Can the child within my 

heart rise above?"), and a cover 

of the Stevie Nicks song "Girl 

Named Sandoz" show the softer, 

sweeter, unplugged side of Corgan's 

unusual hard-cocking 

howling. 

Corgan bids a farewell and 

thank you to his listeners when 

he writes, "Thanks for being and 

thanks for listening and thanks 

for getting angry and happy and 

sad all at the same time. Life is 

everything and nothing all at the 

same time. . .we hope we mean 

those things to you." 

With 57 minutes of merciless 

rock and three pages of liner 

notes, complete with little anecdotes 

and words of wisdom from 

Billy Corgan, Pisces Iscariot proves 

to be a collection of admirable 

songs worth dredging up from the 

past.

Offspring enjoys long awaited success 

PHOTO BY EPITAPH 

Alternative band Offspring Is on their way to success and popularity. 

They will t>e playing Oct. 28 at the Trocadero. 

By ANTHONY P. CENTOLA 


As 

1994 began, the quartet 

Offspring was hoping to 

make it to their riext gig, never 

mind making it big. Nevertheless, 

success occurred almost overnight. 

These punk alternative 

musicians were almost an instant 

success after the release of their 

third album "Smash." Hailing 

from Orange County, Calif., the 

foursome understooid the hardships 

of becoming a successful 

punk band. 

Just before the latest album was 

due out, radio stations like Los 

Angeles' KROQ began to play the 

band's single, "Come Out and 

Play." Stations around the coun- 

try began to follow and started to 

play the single on regular rotation. 

In Philadelphia, throughout most 

of the summer, the top twenty 

rock singles chart held Offspring's 

"Come Out and Play" at number 

two, not to mention how nicely 

MTV fit the single into its "Alternative 

Nation" slot. Now, their 

^N {#i#iif is 

racNo ati!piay CHTKi 

CNnMTV. 

second single "Self Esteem" is 

receiving much radio airplay and 

a permanent slot on MTV's regular 

schedule. 

"It's been great. We sold out 

every night. I know the venues 

only hold about one thousand 

people, but I guess people even 

crowd the streets in hopes of 

getting a ticket," said Greg Krie- 

sel, bass guitarist. He went on to 

explain why the band backed out 

of the offer to tour with Metallica 

this summer. "We just didn't 

want to rush into things too 

quickly. We want to take our time 

as a band. We don't let things go 

to our heads. We are still the same 

band we were when we recorded . 

our first album," added Kriesel. 

With all the radio air play, a 

successful summer tour and many 

new fans, Offspring decided to 

extend its tour through the fall. 

The band will be playing Oct. 28 

at the Trocadero. This will prove 

Offspring is here to stay as a 

major name in the music industry. 

This band certainly deserves all 

the success they have acquired. 

'Love Affaii' bores with overused theme 

By MICHELE CARROLL 


iiT ove Affair," currently in 

J.^theatres and starring 

Warren Beatty and Annette Bening, 

is a remake of a remake. The 

movie closely resembles "An 

Affair to Remember" starring 

Cary Grant, in which two starcrossed 

lovers, both engaged to 

other people, fall in love and decide 

to meet three months later at the 

top of the Empire State Building. 

If they are still in love, that is. 

In the modern "Love Affair," 

Warren Beatty plays opposite his 

real-life spouse, Annette Bening. 

Beatty 's character does not venture 

too far from reality as he 

plays Mike, an aging playboy who 

has finally been pegged by one 

woman and is now "engaged." 

Upon Bening's entrance, the old 

"love at first sight" theory takes 

effect, establishing the romance 

that continues throughout the 

film. The chemistry between 

Beatty and Bening is beautiful, 

reflecting their real life situation 

as newlyweds. 

By MARY McCREARY 


The 

Cult is one of the most 

underappreciated bands in 

the history of rock and roll. Most 

of those who have actually heard 

of The Cult know them through 

their single, "Fire Woman" from 

1989's Sonic Temple and because 

the drummer for Guns 'n' Roses, 

Matt Sorumd, was the touring 

drummer for The Cult. Those 

who are actually familiar with the 

band, know that their great period 

was when they released 1985's 

Love and 1987's Electric. Well, it 

is time to get familiar with the 

band again. The Cult, after a 

three-year hiatus, has come back 

to life with an appropriately self- 

titled disc. The Cult. 

In 1991, with the release of 

Ceremony, the band directed their 

complete attention to Native American 

themes. Even though their 

past has been completely based on 

American Indian thought, tfiis 

was their first immersion into it. 

In case the name of the band 

conjures up somewhat wary 

images, rest assured that the 

name refers to an Indian 'cult.' 

The origins of The Cult are deep 

and quite extensive. The band 

The film revolves around their 

lives and relationships with each 

other and with their respective 

fiances. After meeting on a plane 

flight to Australia that unexpectedly 

makes an emergency landing 

on an obscure island, the two are 

transferred to a cruise ship for an 

extended return trip to the United 

States. 

11i# conflict and 

climax, aNhough 

iwH acted, is 

piodiciable. 

A meaningful and endearing 

appearance by Katherine Hepburn, 

playing Beatty's aging aunt, 

is the highlight of this mundane 

love story. Her relationship with 

Bening helps to illustrate the 

evolving feelings of the two lovers. 

The predictable nature of the 

film, from start to finish, follows 

remains 

began with the current guitarist, 

Billy Duffy, in a band called the 

Nosebleeds in 1977. Also in this 

band was Steven Morrisey, better 

known as Morrisey of the Smiths. 

Duffy went on to play in five other 

bands before teaming up with Ian 

Astbury (current Cult vocalist) in 

1983 as the Death Cult. Before the 

Death Cult, Astbury led the 

Southern Death Cult, which currently 

has discs available along 

with the Death Cult. This led to 

several stages of The Cult. Cur- 

rently they are in stage eight of 

various reorganizations. 

The current Cult sees lead 

singer, once with waist-length 

hair, boasting a fresh haircut, 

trendy threads, his Steven Tyleresque 

lips and two new members. 

The sound remains the same as 

experienced on Ceremony due to 

the simple fact that the two 

principles, Duffy and Astbury, are 

still in complete control. 

Astbury's voice is very distinct 

and can be easily picked from a 

crowd. Although it has often been 

compared to Jim Morrison and 

Mark Lanegan's voices, still 

remains quite distinctive. His 

forte is belting out lyrics in a 

tasteful and appropriate scream. 

He adds a lot of trademark, 

"yeahs" and "wooes," which keep 

the same sequence in the ever 

popular "Sleepless in Seattle" 

with Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan, 

featuring the infamous meeting at 

the top of the Empire State 

Building. 

The anticipation of the threemonth 

meeting that has been set 

between Beatty and Bening sets 

the stage for the conflict and 

climax which, although well acted, 

is predictable. The two salvage 

the remains of an over-used story 

and make the best of it as an onscreen/off-screen 

couple. 

Clearly, the only reason to see 

this film is to enjoy the relationship 

between these two talented 

actors, as well as Hepburn's 

special appearance. 

The first time around, this 

story is endearing and utterly 

romantic. The universal hope of 

finding true love and devotion is 

a classic and timeless theme. 

However, "Love Affair" abuses 

this idea by making it conventional 

and tired. The predictable 

nature of this film and the vast 

selection of other excellent films 

recently released makes this one 

to save for a night with the VCR. 

the vifitage Cult sound alive and 

well. 

Duffy's guitar is very strong. He 

has kept the formula which has 

worked consistently for the band. 

This is a rock and roll band, no 

question about it, they keep a 

mellow tempo at times without 

becoming whimsical. On Love, 

they showed exactly how appropriate 

they can deliver meaningful, 

musical songs. And on Electric, 

they displayed what they do best. 

They rocked harder than any 

album of the day.

Question answers doubis about Bosstones 

By ALEX SCOFIELD 

Associate Editor 

If 

Hell is any fun at all, it is 

probably very similar to a 

Mighty Mighty Bosstones concert. 

In recent years, this Boston-based 

ska band has made a name for 

itself with its live performances 

which can turn any concert hall 

into an inferno of growling vocals, 

punk aggression and a horn section 

gone wild. Mix in one of the 

most fanatically devoted fan followings 

of any rock group and a 

Bosstones show becomes a transcendent 

experience for anybody 

who dares to venture into the 

moshpit. 

Unfortunately, this concert 

intensity has never translated 

well onto disc for the Mighty 

Mighty Bosstones. Although the 

band's albums have sold well 

enough to garner them a major- 

label record deal, the studio recordings 

have generally been a disappointment 

to those who have 

witnessed the Bosstones' furious 

power on stage. 

Enter Question the Answers, the 

Bosstones' second LP on Polygram's 

Big Rig label, in which the 

group finally discovers the right 

THE ARTS 

recording formula. The improvement 

is apparent several seconds 

into the opening track, "Kinder 

Words." This song demonstrates 

a newly found versatility for 

guitarist Nate Albert. It is no 

fluke, as the riffs and musical 

styles of the remaining songs are 

varied enough to keep the rest of 

album interesting. 

For the first time, the Bosstones 

manage to sound like a band on 

jiw linpiaiPiiiiiiii

^"^^^^ 

disc. On previous albums, particularly 

More Noise and Other 

Disturbances, the group's horn 

section sounded more like a supplemental 

gimmick than a crucial 

element of the Mighty Mighty 

musical style. Everything is cohesive 

this time around, as the brass 

blends perfectly with the rock 

instruments on the funky "Hell 

of a Hat" and "Toxic Toast," 

which has a very faint salsa hint. 

No matter how much the sup- 

seems to make a conscious effort 

porting cast contributes to the 

success of Question the Answers 

the genuine star of the Bosstones 

is still lead singer Dicky Barrett. 

Actually, the term 'singer' is 

somewhat of a misnomer, as 

Barrett growls all the lyrics. 

Although he retains his customary 

gravelly vocals, Barrett now 

towards intelligibility. 

There is good reason for Barrett's 

vocal clarity, as a majority 

of the songs on this album are 

written with a new seriousness of 

purpose. "A Sad Silence" hits 

hard lyrically, describing a gangbanging 

crack user, while "Bronzing 

the Garbage" is an account of 

a grudge which has passed the 

point of no return. Less grave but 

equally well-written is "We 

Should Talk," an indictment of 

the Geraldo Rivera and Rikki Lake 

ilk and those "who keep tuning in 

to their tabloid TV shows. 

Despite the improvements 

which permeate Question the 

Answers, the album ends with 

somewhat of a whimper. The final 

two tracks, "Dogs and Chaplains" 

and "Jump Through the Hoops," 

smack of earlier efforts where the 

Bosstones seemed unable to create 

any variation with their ska 

sound. The album's serious attitude 

degenerates into outright 

bitterness on the latter. cut, as 

Barrett complains about how 

much he hates the holiday season. 

But 10 good tracks out of 12 are 

more than enough provocation for 

the devotees of this plaid-clad 

octet to give Question the Answers 

a spin. The Mighty Mighty Bosstones 

have created an LP which 

Cultural Film Series: 'Age of Innocence 

By ANDREAS VON 

SCHEELE 

Insert to the Villanovan 

Why 

cannot Newland Archer 

(Daniel Day-Lewis) and the 

enigmatic beauty, Countess Ellen 

(Michelle Pfeifer) elope together 

and consummate the torid love 

running through their veins? As 

one watches Martin Scorsese's 

"Age of Innocence," he or she 

crumbles under the weight of 

their repressed passions. 

This week's film offers a long 

and intricate star-crossed love 

story set in New York in the 

1870s. It depicts the "creme de la 

creme" of Manhattan's high class 

in all its grandeur and hypocrisy. 

The voice of Joanne Woodward 

opines omnipotently that it is "a 

world balanced so precariously 

that its harmony could be shattered 

by whispers." Whispers and 

gossip are often heard at pompous 

balls, gastronomical parties and 

after-dinner cigar clippings. 

Newland Archer masterfully 

maneuvers his way through this 

hieroglyphic world; yet, he cannot 

find the key that will free him and 

Countess Ellen from the tacit 

conventions of their society. Their 

actions are noble and audacious; 

yet, they remain fettered to the 

moral and conventional tracks of 

their time. 

The exquisite performance of 

Lewis lures viewers into the 

sensuality of the film. His voice 

is soft, yet distinct. His demeanor 

is always stoic and reserved. John 

Simon of the National Review 

comments, "As in double exjysure, 

the actor manages to convey 

both what the character is saying 

and the very different things he 

is thinking. . 

'Age of Innocence" steams up the screens with represeed passions. 

." 

At the film's end one comes 

away feeling slightly unfulfilled, 

but completely tantalized by the 

intricacy of the acting and cinematography. 

"The story's so 

emotionally powerful that I wanted 

all the characters to remember 

everything that was happening at 

the moment when all those conversations 

were taking place. The 

clock ticking. The fireplace. The 

horse and carriage going by. The 

flutter of birds' wings. Kids 

playing in the park," says Martin 

Scorsese. The film has been 

labeled slow by some critics. But 

if the pace slackens, the viewer 

can gorge on the myriad details 

that compose the set and 

background. 

Scorsese certainly attended to 

the details of the film. He brought 

in special voice coaches, culinary 

historians, art historians and 

special costume designers. The 

director scrutinized everything to 

towers far above any of their 

previous recording efforts. The 

disc is still no substitute for a live 

Bosstones experience, but local 

'Toneheads finally have an adequate 

way to tie themselves over 

between their favorite band's 

Philadelphia gigs. 

make the film a sumptuous and 

an indulgent visual experience. 

June Lytel-Murphy will begin 

Monday night's film with her

Class."

p.m., Sunday, 3:30 p.m. and 7 p.m.

The Villanova Theafre 

reveals Beckefs life 

By ELIZABETH DURKIN 


Beginning to think that 

there is nothing to do on 

weekends at Villanova? Bored 

with the same old thing every 

Friday and Saturday night? 

Well, never fear! Villanova 

Student Theatre's production 

of T.S. Eliot's acclaimed play 

"Murder in the Cathedral" 

comes just in time to save you 

from another hungover weekend. 

Opening Nov. 4 and running 

through Nov. 6 at St. Mary's 

ChJêl, Eliot's play deals with 

the last day in the life of St. 

Thomas a Becket, one of England's 

most famous martyrs. 

T.S. Eliot, best known for 

composing the poems Andrew 

Lloyd Webber used in his Tony 

Award-winning "Cats," wrote 

"Murder in the Cathedral" in 

1935 for the Canterbury Fes- 

tival that year. Written in the 

classical style, it employs a 

chorus composed of the women 

in the town of Canterbury, 

where the play is set. In addi- 

tion, all of the participants in 

the production speak in verse. 

This play is one of a handful 

of plays written in verse after 

1900. 

The olot centers around 

Thomas Becket, archbishop of 

Canterbury, England, and his 

struggle to come to terms with 

his martyrdom. Becket was 

executed in his cathedral on 

Dec. 29, 1170, for supposedly 

plotting against King Henry II. 

The chorus is the impartial 

observers of the play who 

comment on the action at 

various, pertinent places dur- 

ing the two acts. 

Lisa Tomaszewski, president 

of Villanova Student Theatre 

and producer of this show, is 

highly optimistic about the 

production. "I know the students 

involved are giving a 

great deal of effort and I'm sure 

they'll bring forth a very entertaining 

work of art. "Joshua M. 

Hummel, director of Publicity 

for the group, said, "This cast 

has great ways of making the 

script come to life." 

Villanova Student Theatre 

was started a few years ago 

with the hopes of bringing a 

niore avant-garde type of thea- 

tre to the campus. Their past 

works include "A Night of One- 

Acts" in the fall of last year, 

and a production of Neil Simon's 

"Brighton Beach 

Memoirs" two years ago. 

Tomaszewski hopes the 

response to this play will be so 

favorable as to furnish Villanova 

Student Theatre with a 

plethora of new members and 

anxious audience members 

who eagerly await their next 

•production. 

"Murder in the Cathedral" 

runs Nov. 4-Nov. 5 at 8 p.m. 

and Nov. 6 at 2 p.m. in St. 

Mary's Chapel. Tickets may be 

purchased at the door: $3 for 

students and $5 for adults.

newest addition to Villa- 

nova Theater's "Season of 

Lasting Impressions" is the production 

of James Lanine's outstanding 

drama "Twelve 

Dreams." Rarely does one get a 

chance to see a play so intriguing 

and consuming. The acting is 

superb and the plot keeps audiences 

guessing. This probing explo- 

ration of the human psyche in 

relation to the dream world is 

brought forth through the experiences 

of the strange and disturbing 

dreams of a young girl and her 

father's attempts to capture their 

essence and meaning. 

Lapine's compelling drama is 

based on an account taken from 

the well known psychologist, Carl 

Jung, in his work "Man and His 

Symbols." Lapine uses the Jungian 

concepts of the collective 

unconscious and the interpretation 

of dreams to explore the 

waking and dreaming states of his 

11-year-old heroine, Emma Hatrick. 

Her dreams consist of the 

people in her waking world. However, 

the images and expriences 

are distorted and exaggerated 

dramatically. These distortions 

are the clues to Emma's true 

feelings, intuitions and desires. 

Jung feels dreams are eruptions 

within the unconscious. The 

unconscious is where the story of 

each person's humanity is 

embedded. 

Emma Hatrick is played by 

Kathleen Doyle, a second-year 

student in the master's program 

in theatre at Villanova. She 

involves the audience immediately

with the fascination and suspense 

of our nighttime visions. Early in 

the play, Emma has a dream that 

involves every character. This 

scene evokes the fear and wonder 

of every man and woman's 

dreams. By imaginative and clever 

use of stage and set, the atmosphere 

created by the music and 

lighting, the props and character- 

ization, the characters come alive 

in the way which Emma secretly 

understands them. The feelings 

she may successfully mask in her 

daytime world come out during 

the night, in her dreams. The 

audience immediately shares in 

this experience of dreamworld 

confusion and illumination.

dream. The music fills the 

audience with an immediate sense 

of the unexpected and the surrealistic. 

Everything about the play 

seems to correlate, bringing the 

dream alive. 

The acting is wonderful. Not 

only does Doyle do a great job of 

creating her character, Emma, 

but the other actors and actresses 

are just as successful. A first year 

graduate student, Morgan Baker, 

portrays Emma's father,~l)r. 

Charles Hatrick. 

Morgan does an excellent job of 

portraying a psychiatrist very 

involved in his work who suddenly 

realizes his daughter is in need of 

his professional attention. Jenny, 

Lisa Clark, is Emma's cousin, 

who comes to live with Emma and 

her father after the death of 

Emma's mother. Their relationsip 

is a very interesting aspect of the 

play. Jenny becomes like a mother 

to Emma. Emma's drams reveal 

clearly that the motherly care 

Jenny offers her is greatly 

appreciated. 

Special attention must be paid 

to the musical score of the play, 

composed by Rob Maggio. The 

music adds much to the play's 

enjoyment and contributes to the 

mood of the dreams and the 

messages which they confer. 

Resident Scenic Designer Wesley 

Maloney-Truitt has designed a 

multi-level set to define the waking 

and dreaming world clearly 

and creatively.

Madonna tells new Stories 

By ERIC CHEUNG 

Entertainment Editor 

HOW 

fitting it is that Madonna 

should have entitled her 

latest album, Bedtime Stories. Her 

fairy tale life took Madonna from 

a little town in Michigan, to the 

dance clubs of New York and 

eventually into the superstar 

arena of the world. However, 

disappointing sales of her last 

album, Erotica (for Madonna, 

selling two million copies is disappointing) 

and a crude appearance 

with David Letterman suggest 

a final chapter in her own 

personal bedtime story. If she is 

to regain her stardom she will 

have to fight an uphill battle. Still 

the moral of Bedtime Stories, as 

many have learned time and time 

again, is though Madonna may be 

.down, she is never out. 

Bedtime Stories has a very odd 

feel to it. Many of the tracks 

feature a whispering voice and 

some low-key singing by Madonna. 

All but one of the songs focus 

primarily on her \«x:als and are 

backed by minimal bass lines. 

True to the title of the first single 

release, "Secret," this album has 

a hushed air about it. Obviously 

the Queen of Controversy wants 

to regain the element of surprise. 

Without losing any bit of sensu- 

ality, Stories subdues the sexual, 

frank attitude of her most recent 

antics. 

Helping Madonna with her 

newest image transformation is 

an army of top-name R&B/Hiphop 

producers including Dallas 

Austin, Babyface, Nellie Hooper 

and Dave Hall. Dispensing with 

most of the ornate melodies Madonna 

relied on in past efforts, these 

producers help Madonna in the 

continued exploration of her musical 

talent. At the same time, she 

targets the urban and R&B 

audience with soulful and funky 

rhythms which are a far cry from 

the house/disco style she used in 

Erotica. 

A few tracks pay tribute to the 

older techniques Madonna is 

known for. The opening single, 

"Survival," finds Madonna and 

her favorite back-up singers (Niki 

Harris and Donna lielory) engaged 

in a brilliant three-voice harmony 

over an accessible beat. Serving 

as both an inspirational piece to 

the listener and a confessional for 

herself. Madonna admits, "I'll 

never be an angel/ I'll never be 

a saint it's true/ I'm too busy 

surviving." Yet after this single, 

back-up singers are no longer 

present. Save for a few guest 

vocalists, Madonna is on her own. 

"Don't Stop" gives listeners a 

blast from the star's past with an 

instantly engaging sound that 

hearkens back to early Madonna 

days when "Holiday" or "Into the 

Groove" dominated the dance 

clubs. "Let the music shake you/ 

Let the rhythm take you/ Feel it 

in your body/ Sing la de da de," 

Madonna commands and the listener 

cannot help but to obey. 

This single screams for and will 

be answered with oodles of radio 

airplay. 

Finaly, the Babyface-penned 

classic ballad, "Take A Bow," is 

the only instance in which a 

melody accompanies Madonna's 

voice. Gorgeous and unforgettable, 

Babyface croons in the back 

ground as Madonna equates a 

lover, who breaks her heart, to a 

performer finishing up a believable 

acting performance. "You took 

my love for granted why oh why/ 

The show is over say good-bye," 

Madonna insists as she reveals 

the truth of her lover's deceitful 

devotions. 

The remaining songs take 

Madonna, on one level or another, 

into unfamiliar musical territory. 

"Secret," with its acoustic guitar 

and synthesized strings in the 

background, aims to be Madonna's 

first No. 1 single in over two years. 

Maintaining an intoxicating chorus, 

it should have little problem 

accomplishing this goal. 

Hip-hop and rap rhythms are 

the focal beats behind the suggestive 

"I'd Rather Be Your Lover" 

and the spiteful "Human Nature." 

The former steals some lines from 

Madonna's 1991 hit "Justify My 

Love" and uses the husky voice 

of fellow Maverick label-mate, Me- 

Shell NdegeOcello. Sexual ambiguity 

permeates the song as 

Madonna promises, "I could be 

your sister/ 1 could be your mother/ 

We could be friends/ I'd even 

be your brother." The latter song 

finds Madonna licking her recent 

wounds inflicted by the media: 

"You punished me for telling you 

my fantasies/ I'm breakin' all the 

rules I didn't make." 

There is no loser in the whole 

bunch from the child-like introspection 

of "Inside of Me" and the 

sinful desires of "Forbidden 

Love," to the philosophically 

regretful plea of "Love Tried To 

Welcome Me" and the experimen- 

tally structured "Bedtime Stories" 

(co-penned by Bjork). With 

any luck, Bedtime Stories will be 

another happy ending in Madon- 

na's latest chapter of success. 

PloHess 'FicKon' baffles 

By ELAINE PAOLONI 

Assistant Entertainment Editor 

Quentin Tarantino's newly 

released film, "Pulp Fiction," 

may leave movie-goers a little 

empty this fall. The cast is full 

of familiar faces and well-known 

names, but something seems to be 

missing. Maybe it is a plot. The 

picture runs for two-and-a-half 

hours, yet no real message is ever 

revealed. Instead, there is a loosely 

related and weak theme around 

which all events spin. To complicate 

matters, a few flashbacks are 

thrown in here and there that can 

really set the mind into motion. 

The biggest problem in the film 

is trying to figure out the time 

frame 

episodes. 

between individual 

The movie is composed of many 

of these different acts. At times 

they disturbingly appear to be 

unconnected. There is one common 

characteristic among the 

various scenes. At the center of 

every situation reigns one man, a 

gangster named Marsellus Wallace. 

Other than this character, 

the scenes are quite independent. 

The film b^ns in a coffee shop. 

This same setting is picked up 

again in the final episode. This 

technique shows a well-thought 

out strategy on the part of the 

filmmakers. The use of this specific 

style gives a sense of completion 

to audience members and 

serves as an appropriate and 

fulfilling conclusion. Viewers 

remain interested in the film 

mainly because they want to find 

out what happens. In fact, the 

two-and-a-half hours fly by 

because the audience is kept in a 

bizarre suspense as they wait to 

see how certain events and characters 

tie into each other. Unfortunately, 

in some cases the long 

awaited explanation does not 

measure up to viewers' 

expectations. 

The mood of each situation 

ranges from unusual to satiric to 

touching to intense. But no matter 

what, there is always an element 

of humor injected into each scene. 

This is achieved through convincing, 

top-rate acting. With characters 

like whacky and drugged out 

Mia Wallace (Uma Thurman), 

tough-as-nails-turned "born 

again" Jules (Samuel L. Jackson), 

dedicated and soft-hearted Butch 

Coolidge (Bruce WilHs) and cool 

Vincent Vega John Travolta), the 

movie has a certain flair and 

charm. In fact, the film is more 

of an intense, analytical character 

sketch rather than a movie with 

a great, meaningful storyline. 

There are some basic facts in 

the story. For example, Travolta 

and Jackson play two "enforcers" 

for the main-man Wallace. We see 

the two characters they portray 

working together on a few missions. 

In another clip, Vincent 

takes Wallace's wife Mia out on 

the town at his boss' request. 

Some problems arise which cause 

Vincent utter distress and give the 

audience the best excitement of 

the entire film. 

Butch Coolidge makes his debut 

while working out a deal with Mr. 

Wallace. In this scene, Coolidjê. 

'*fX 

a fighter, agrees to throw a boxing 

match. Later, we see he falls back 

on this deal and must reckon with 

Wallace's forces. 

There is some structure to 

"Pulp Fiction." Wallace plays the 

"Godfather" figure who takes the 

viewer through his wayward 

operations. We are then allowed 

to see the effects Wallace seemingly 

has on already slightly t 

corrupted people. Asking to find 

any more than this in the movie 

would be ridiculous. 

Other star appearances throughout 

the film help to support the 

great characterizations. These 

names include Eric Stoltz, Christopher 

Walken and Rosanna 

Arquette. The people they play 

might seem slightly neurotic, but 

every actor and actress in "Pulp 

Fiction" manages to captivate the 

essence of his or her role. If the 

viewer can sit back, enjoy and 

appreciate this fact, then the 

movie will be successful (at least 

in his or her mind). 

This film can be appreciated 

primarily by the acting community 

and those who enjoy watching 

professional work. For the aver- 

age,let's-go-out-I-feel-like-seeinga-good-movie type, well, maybe he 

or she should invest his or her 

time in seeing something with an 

easier storyline. Nevertheless, it 

would not hurt to try something 

new like "Pulp Fiction" for a 

change. Albeit an intricate plot, 

the movie does have good lines and 

room for laughter. However, this 

movie, having an incredible 

amount of profanity and violence, 

may be for the less traditional or 

"hip" crowd.

Intramural Update: Playoffs to begin soon 

INTRAMURAL TEAMS 

OF THE WEEK 

WOMEN'S FOOTBALL - 

NOB IV 

Coached by education professor 

Dr. Ray Heitzmann, NOB IV is 

trying to win their fourth consecutive 

intramural championship. 

NOB IV is led by their four 

captains Suz Dodd, Beth Schaefer, 

Carrie Dunn and KC Kelly. The 

key to the success of NOB IV is 

their tenacious defense which is 

anchored by Dodd and Terry 

Boyer. According to Heitzmann, 

the competition in this year's 

league is the best that it has ever 

been. 

"It is going to be very tough to 

repeat as the league champion for 

the fourth consecutive year 

because the quality of the league 

is greatly improved," commented 

Heitzmann. "Our defense will be 

the strength of NOB IV. Hopefully 

we can win it again and get the 

opportunity to play against the 

other city schools in the City 6." 

MEN'S FOOTBALL — G- 

TOWN KILLERS 

After playing together last year 

as freshmen, the G-Town Killers 

are putting the experience they 

gained last year to good use as 

they are 4-1 on the season. The 

one loss the G-Town Killers' 

suffered occurred when star quarterback 

Steve Miller was unable 

to play. 

"If we win our last game, we 

win our division. This is a pretty 

good accomplishment for a team 

made up of sophomores," said 

captain Michael Schuttloffel, an 

International Business major in 

the Honors program. "We have a 

great quarterback in Steve Miller 

who is definitely the strength of 

our team. Another strong point 

about our team is that we play 

very well together." 

WOMEN'S SOCCER - BALL 

BUSTERS 

Co-captains Stephanie Scarola 

and Adriene Wiegman are the 

team's leaders. The Ball Busters 

are made up of predominately 

sophomores with one freshman. 

This talented group of young 

ladies play very well together and 

exhibit outstanding sportsmanship 

on the field. The Ball Busters 

are currently 1-2 on the season. 

"We really enjoy playing 

intramuraJs," stated Wiegman. 

"Most of us played together last 

year. Our main goal is to have fun 

and enjoy the competition." 

MEN'S SOCCER-ALBERTO 

G Albert G is a team made up of 

players of all ages. After two 

games, Alberto G possesses a 2- 

record. Alberto G has played 

consistent defense this season. 

The defense has been led by a 

three-person goalie system. Cocaptain 

Andy Korzeniewski feels 

his team has a good chance of 

advancing far into the playoffs. 

"Our team is playing very well 

right now. We are definitely going 

to make the playoffs," commented 

Korzeniewski, a freshman political 

science major. "We have a good 

shot of going pretty far. Our main 

competition will probably be the 

law school team." 

FOOTBALL PLAYOFFS: 

The 1994 Intramural football 

playoffs are set to begin on Monday, 

Nov. 7. The top two teams 

in each division will qualify for 

the playoffs. Criteria for selecting

will be based on (1) won — loss 

record, (2) head to head results, 

(3) points scored, (4) points given 

up, or (5) coin toss. This year's 

playoffs will be single elimination. 

TENNIS RESULTS: 

Tom Lawless and Kelly Shaw 

captured the championship in the 

Intramural Tennis Tournament^ 

Shaw, a junior accounting major 

from Orono, Minnesota won the 

women's title with a 7-5 win in 

the finals. Lawless, a 'freshman 

business major from Duxbury, 

Massachusetts captured the 

men's championship 

SOCCER PLAYOFFS: 

Intramural Soccer playoffs will 

begin on Nov. 14. The top t\vo 

teams from each division will 

make it to post-season play. During 

the season, a team will be 

rewarded three points for a win 

and one point for a tie. The criteria 

for selecting the top two teams in 

each division will be based on (1) 

points, (2) head to head competi- 

tion, (3) goals against, (4) goals for, 

or (5) coin toss. 

Baseball concludes Fall season 

By GREG GREENFIELD 

Sti^ff Reporter 

The Villanova baseball team 

Recently concluded its fall season 

in a promising way. Although 

there was no official "season" by 

NCAA standards, the Cats played 

an intrasquad season. It was 

restricted to intrasquad because 

the NCAA dictates that there can 

only be 50 intercollegiate games 

per scholastic year. Because of 

this rule, the Cats choose to 

concentrate all of their games in 

the spring. The team divided itself 

into three teams: the "Mighties," 

the "Divers," and the "Birds." 

The championship of the unofficial 

league went to the "Divers." 

Although the games were 

intrasquad, walk-ons who were 

still competing for spots on the 

team also played. Returning 

players were eager to demonstrate 

any improvement they made over 

the summer. In addition, incumbent 

starters wanted to prove that 

they were still the right men for 

their respective positions. 

Hoping to avenge last year's 

disappointing 18-23 season, the 

Wildcats brought in a very talented 

recruiting class. But before 

these promising young rookies get 

their chance, they must beat out 

the returning starters. One 

returning Wildcat who looks to 

lead the team this spring is Dave 

Herr. After missing most of last 

year due to injury, the former Big 

East Pitcher of the Year is healthy 

again and primed to lead the 

rotation. 

In addition to Herr, the rotation 

boasts other returnees, including 

Big East Rookie of the Year 

Trevor Pepkowski. Dan Kusters 

(who was injured this fall), Larry 

Williams, Sean Dunne and Craig 

Culhane have also returned. Culhane, 

who did not see much time 

last season, had both an impressive 

fall and summer season and 

was virtually untouchable. Since 

last spring, Culhane's fastball has 

reportedly increased its velocity 

by five miles per hour. Yet he 

concedes that he has not done 

anything differently. 

"Previous to this summer, my 

change-up had been my best 

pitch," said Culhane. "However, 

it seems that now my fastball has 

become tougher to hit." 

The Cats' offense, which sputtered 

at times last year, looked 

impressive this fall. Although 

runs were tough to come by last 

year, the offense could return to 

the run producing machine of two 

years ago when the Cats won the 

Big East regular season 

championship. 

One person who looks to be an 

offensive contributor is a transfer 

student from Dartmouth College, 

John Clifford. Although Clifford 

has yet to don a Wildcat regular 

season uniform, major league 

scouts have already taken an 

interest in him. Clifford's bat won 

him an invitation to the prestigious 

Cape Cod League this past 

summer, giving him an opportunity 

to refine his skills. Other 

offensive threats this fall were 

Jason Cassessa, Ryan McGinty, 

Brian Fili and Steve Young. 

Many freshmen also proved 

they are worthy of being Wildcats 

this fall. One of them is Rick 

Welsh. This shortstop, who was 

drafted in the eighth round of the 

major league draft last year, 

showed tremendous power this 

fall and hopes to vie with Larry 

Kleinz for the starting nod at 

shortstop. Other freshmen who 

hope to make an impact in the 

spring are John Biggie, Tom 

Shank and Jason Landon. 

The fall season gave the Cats 

an opportunity to show that they 

still can play after a long summer 

off. Hopefully, if the Cats play as 

hard and as well as they did this 

fall, Villanova baseball fans can 

expect some excitement on West 

Campus this spring. Although the 

spring is a long time coming, 

Wildcat baseball fans can be 

assured that there will be enough 

talent for Villanova to once again 

contend for the Big East title.

Women's tennis inconsistent 

By CHRISTINA 

HUNGSPRUKE 


With the first month of their 

season behind them, the members 

of the women's tennis team (3-5) 

were eager to begin the month of 

October. And it started out with 

a bang. 

Villanova took on cross town 

rival Drexel in Center City Oct. 

3 and posted a convincing 8-1 

victory. Led by No. 1 singles star 

Kelly Barnes (6-3, 7-5) and fellow 

tri-captains Kerry Dillon (6-0, 6- 

0) and Tiffany Geiser (6-0, 6-0), the 

Cats commanded the match, des- 

pite dropping the beginning No. 1 

doubles match, 8-6. 

"Kerry [Dillon] is playing at the 

height of her game. She has won 

four matches in a row and is 

playing just excellent tennis," 

said Assistant Coach Stan Phelps 

of his No. 2 singles starter. 

Phelps also praised his No. 5 

starter, Geiser. 

"Tiffany is playing well, and 

with extreme confidence right 

now,." said Phelps. 

Junior Tina Fiore found herself 

down a set as Drexel 's Jen Hooper 

broke out 6-4 to win the first. Fiore 

came back strong in the second 

and third sets, and won her match 

4-6, 6-2, 6-4. Villanova improved 

to a 4-5 overall record with 

Lafayette on the doorstep. 

Hot off their 8-1 drubbing of 

Drexel, 'Nova (4-5) hosted 

Lafayette at West Campus. The 

No. 1 doubles pair of Barnes and 

Dillon began the contest with an 

8-4 victory, but the Cats' No. 2 and 

No. 3 teams could not follow suit. 

Trailing 2-1 following the doubles 

competition, it was iip to tne 

upper-classmen to lead the comeback. 

Tri-captain and No. 1 singles 

Barnes defeated Alex Finio easily 

6-1, 6-3. However, No. 2 singles 

Dilloh could not hold off 

Lafayette's Tracey Gold and had 

her four match winning streak 

snapped 7-5, 6-7, 3-6. Villanova fell 

to 4-6, with a majority of the Big 

East schedule still to play. 

Oct. 8 ushered in the beginning 

of the Big East schedule for the 

Villanova Women's tennis squad 

and a date with the Connecticut 

Huskies at Storrs, CT. Barnes led 

the way for the Cats posting an 

8-6 doubles victory with teammate 

Dillon and a convincing 6-1, 6-0 

victory in No. 1 singles. Junior 

Tina Fiore also paced Villanova 

decisions at No. 3 doubles (8-6) 

with sophomore teammate Erin 

O'Shea and at No. 4 singles (64, 

6-1). 

The Cats went on to lose 5-4 

and fell to 0-3 in the Big East, 4- 

7 overall. Villanova remained in 

Storrs while awaiting the arrival 

of its next opponent. Providence. 

'Nova's 4-3 victory against the 

Friar's was sparked by the first 

doubles pairbf tri-captains Barnes 

and Dillon (8-4). In singles play, 

Barnes saw her amazing run of 

five straight match wins come to 

an end. Despite her loss, Barnes 

still holds the team's best individ- 

ual record. Along with fellow tricaptain 

Geiser (6-4, 7-5) and first 

year player Meg Daniels, Dillon 

led the way in singles play with 

a convincing 6-3, 6-2 victory. The 

third doubles team of Fiore and 

O'Shea worked hard to defeat its 

Friar opponents 8-4. The women's 

tennis team improved its overall 

record to 5-7, and their Big East 

record to 1-3. 

Coming off its win over Providence, 

the team took on two other 

cross-town rivals — Temple and 

St. Joseph's. Temple, one of the 

top teams in the area, was a tough 

opponent for the Cats. 'Nova did 

manage to pull out a victory from 

the third doubles team of junior 

D-Ca$h and Fatman 

We hope everyone enjoyed fall 

break. It's always nice to kick 

back, put your feet up and get Fat. 

There is reason to believe that 

Fatman is thinking about 

transferring to Viginia Tech, but 

enough chit chat already, let's get 

down to business.

The word for this weekend is 

"winners." Can you say 

"winners" boys and girls? This 

week's selections (HOME TEAM 

IN CAPS, AND IF YOU DON'T 

KNOW THAT BY NOW, YOUR 

PRETTY CLUELESS) 

Virginia Tech +14 over 

MIAMI (FLA.) - We love the 

game, we love the weather, we 

love DeShazo, we love the points. 

AUBURN -13 over Arkansas 

— Auburn has had a full two 

weeks to savor and store the win 

they had against Florida in the 

Swamp. The Hogs should make 

a good dessert on top of all that 

Gator meat. 

Colorado PK over 

NEBRASKA—Big game, simple 

equation: Buffaloes + Turf — 

Tickets 


to the game, the Department of 

Athletics reserves the right to sell 

any remaining tickets to the

'Family and friends are not

they become available to the 

public. All Villanova students will 

be required to present their ticket 

and Wildcard at the student 

entrance in order to gain admission 

to home games. 

Fraizer = Corn for dinner. 

VILLANOVA over William 

& Mary — Get a few in ya,' after 

all it's Homecoming, enjoy. Roll 

Cats, roll! 

NFL: DENVER -2% over 

Cleveland — The Broncos just 

handed a tough Charger squad 

their first loss of the season and 

always play tough at Mile High. 

There are also rumors of a possible 

Rypien sighting. 

INDIANAPOLIS +1% over 

N.Y. Jets — We believe that it 

is against all the laws of physics 

for the Jets to remain above .500. 

Look for a strong performance out 

of the Faulks in the dome. 

ARIZONA -2 over Pittsburgh 

— The last two times the 

Cards have been favored, they 

have come out on top. Buddy 

should have the boys fired up after

Youthful 'Nova team struggles 

By CHRIS SLEVIN 


With just six returning players 

and a strong freshman class, the 

men's soccer team is certainly 

going through some rebuilding 

stages with a 6-8-1 record. 

"Our play has been indicative 

of a young team," said Captain 

Doug Nevins. 

The squad has too often fallen 

behind early in games and has had 

to fight uphill the rest of the way. 

"We need to control the game 

right from the start and not get 

lazy in the first 15 minutes," said 

Nevins. 

It was aggressive play that led 

to the 1-0 upset of then 15th 

ranked Georgetown Oct. 1. With 

less than two minutes to play, 

senior Keith Taylor placed one in 

the left corner to shock the Hoyas. 

"The team, especially the 

younger players, really gears up 

for teams like Georgetown, St. 

John's or Seton Hall," said Nevins. 

"But [the team] hasn't been as 

aggressive against teams like 

Drexel." 

Since the Georgetown game, the 

team is 1-3-1. The main reason for 

the let down has been injuries. 

Many key players have been hurt, 

but in the last two games, the 

team has been back on track. In 

a 5-3 win over Delaware on Oct. 

19, 'Nova dominated the game as 

Nevins and Taylor each had a goal 

and two assists while Jon Correl 

and freshmen Barry Smith and 

Paul Miraglia added goals. 

'Nova tied Providence last Sun- 

day, a game that the team feels 

they should have won. 'Nova fell 

behind early as PC struck in the 

first half. The Wildcats finally 

tied it with two minutes left when 

Jay Sommer connected on Nevins' 

corner kick to the far post. 

Nevins cites the defense as the 

key for 'Nova. In particular, the 

play of Bill Reid, Mike Francalan- 

gia and Sommer has been vital. 

When the defense plays well, the 

team can concentrate on the other 

end of the field. This is where the 

play between Taylor and Nevins 

has been integral. Taylor has been 

the team's leading scorer with 

seven goals and two assists for 16 

points. This has taken some of the 

pressure off Nevins. 

"Keith has made it a lot easier 

for me," said Nevins. "I don't have 

to worry about scoring. My job is 

to set them up."

f. hockey loses in overtime 

ByJONNEHLSEN 


Winter has come a little early 

this year for the women's field 

hockey squad as the Wildcats' icecold 

offensive performances have 

demonstrated. 

The team was 1-5 in the first 

three weeks of October. At times 

it seemed as though the ball would 

never find the back of the net. The 

Cats were outscored one goal to 

12 in the five losses to Syracuse, 

Virginia, Rutgers, Duke and 

Michigan. 

"Scoring goals has been our 

problem all year," said sophomore 

Nina Berrettini. "We are a defense 

oriented team. Sometimes we 

wait for the other team to make 

a move and we react. We need to 

initiate the action more." 

This past Sunday, 'Nova took 

Berrettini 's advice. Late in the 

second half, sophomore Rachel 

Hale received a Joann Brantuk 

pass and rocketed it into the net 

to defeat Rider 1-0. The raindrenched 

win raised the team's 

record to 4-10. 

Unfortunately, the excitement 

was short-lived. The women faced 

heavily favored Lafayette on 

Tuesday. After battling brilliantly 

for the duration of regulation, the 

Cats let down their guard to suffer 

an all-too-familiar overtime loss. 

The story of the game was the 

dominating play of senior Joann 

Brantuk. The forward seemed to 

swarm to the ball the entire game. 

Several times she threatened to 

seal the victory for the Wildcats 

with blistering shots on the opposing 

goalkeeper. 

Oddly, Brantuk's zealous play 

may be a reason for the team's 

inability to score goals. Brantuk 

consistently contributes on the 

"' 

defensive end of the field. In the 

Rider match, she broke up a 

crucial penalty corner with less 

than two minutes in regulation. 

This sort of overall performance 

appeared essential when defender 

Gretchen Schmid left the game 

with an injury in the second half. 

However, it prevented Brantuk 

from applying pressure on the 

offensive end. 

The 1-0 loss was the eighth time 

Villanova has been blanked this 

season. While this is surely a 

discouraging final campaign for 

Brantuk, the younger players 

maintain hope that the future will 

be dramatically better. 

"I think we are all a little 

frustrated," Berrettini said. "But, 

we are a really young team and 

we have so mucjfi talent. We are 

going to be very good." 

With two games remaining, 

Brantuk leads the team with

seven points, followed by Jill 

Basile with five. Chrissy Thomas 

continued her record-setting season 

with her 23rd career shutout 

against Rider. Brantuk's cocaptain, 

Marcy McGoldrick, has 

started two games in the net for 

the Cats. 

The women travel to West 

Chester tomorrow and conclude 

the season Nov. 1 with a home 

game versus Drexel. 

'Nova golf team continues its surprising season 

By COLLEEN DONNELLY 


As the 1994 fall golf season 

winds down, the Villanova men's 

golf team is certainly not. At the 

team's latest tournament, the 

ECAC Championship in Hamilton, 

N.Y., they finished in an 

eighth place tie with the much 

rivaled Providence College. Harvard 

captured the championships 

with a combined score of 612. The 

top individual, Mackenzie Hurd of 

Dartmouth, shot a 144 and led his 

team to a fifth place finish. 

Freshman Steve Horky led Villanova 

with a two-day shot total 

of 153, giving him a tie for 17th 

place. Shooting a 157, junior cocaptain 

Rick Wurster finished 

second for 'Nova. Overall the team 

was pleased with their 

performance. 

"We did very well, beating all 

teams in our district," said senior 

Chad Wasserman. 

More significant for this fall's 

golf team was the road leading to 

the ECAC Championships. Back 

in September the team had it 

first victory under coaches Joe anu 

Jake Moran at the University of 

Maryland — Baltimore County 

Tournament. Wasserman and 

Horky led the team with scores 

of 73 and 74 respectively. 

Later in the month the Cats 

went on to snatch fourth place in 

the Big East Golf Championship 

shooting a combined team total of 

610 over the two days. Junior Greg 

Komansky finished in the top ten. 

The Wildcats never let up as 

they came in an impressive second 

only to George Washington at the 

ECAC Qualifying Tournament. 

Out of the 22 entries at the match, 

Villanova finished only two 

strokes behind the first place team 

Football 


the other by nose tackle Nate 

Mclntyre, preserved the 13-9 win. 

Quarterback Tom Marchese 

finished 18 of 36 for 197 yards 

with one touchdown and two 

interceptions. Brian Finneran led 

all receivers with eight catches for 

87 yards and one score. 

Still, Talley was not pleased 

with the offensive performance of 

his team. 

"We have not executed well on 

offense," he said. "We need to just 

get this thing going. The defense 

saved us today." 

Tomorrow, the Cats host William 

and Mary, a team coming off 

a loss to James Madison. The Cats 

go into the game at 4-4 and are 

fighting to stay above the .500 

level. 

"We're fighting for a winning 

season," said Talley. "If we go in 

and play real hard, we have a 

chance to beat them." 

with a 307. 

No doubt these performances 

motivated the team at the St. 

John's Invitational. With two 

players placing in the top ten, 

'Nova posted a fourth place tie 

with St. Joe's. 

The team considers the St. 

w 

John's Invitational one of their 

best performances. Individually, 

Wasserman 's two-dav total of 147 

put him in third. Senior Scott 

Roberts followed right behind him 

with a 150, capturing fourth. 

The golf team had a pretty good 

outlook for the 1994 fall season.

Wolfman's Views from the Cheap Seats 

By JONATHAN PASSMAN 


My boys keep asking me, "When 

are you going to start talking 

about basketball again?" As if 

Villanova doesn't have any other 

sports for me to ramble on about 

on a weekly basis, or whenever 

this rag comes out. Seeing as 

"Wildcat Roar, '94" is tonight, I 

figure this is as good a time as 

any to answer some key hoop 

questions that people keep asking 

me. 

1) Wolfman, what's the deal 

with North Carolina tickets? 

NCAA rules mandate that the 

visiting team is allotted a minimum 

of 250 tickets to distribute. 

Unfortunately for us, Villanova 

has allotted 175 of the UNC tickets 

for an alumni bus trip. That 

leaves 75 tickets remaining, which 

go to the following people in order 

of preference: friends and family 

of the team, paying season ticket 

holders who are not alumni, 

faculty, then students. That 

leaves for us peasants what looks 

to be a whopping total of zero 

tickets. Howe\5'er, the ticket office 

would not guarantee that all 

would be sold. Obviously, money 

talks, and the prestigious alumni 

of this fine institution have plenty 

to chat about. Remember kids, you 

can get revenge when you are a 

rich alumnus, and our alumni 

director (probably Pat Kennedy) 

gets us a bus trip to a prestigious 

basketball institution, like 

Delaware. 

2) Why is there a lottery this 

year? 

Because AD Gene Defilippo and 

SGA President Pat Kennedy said 

so. Once upon a time, like five 

years ago, the tickets were conducted 

on a seasonal lottery. From 

what I have heard, about 99% of 

those who entered the lottery got 

full season plans, and the other 

1% got partial ticket plans. Las| 

year, season tickets were available 

to anyone who bothered showing 

up at duPont on a Sunday afternoon. 

Of course, no one could have 

predicted Villanova 's success last 

November. DeFilippo and 

Kennedy thought that a systematic 

lottery by one, two and three 

game blocks was the most equitable 

way to distribute the tickets, 

because demand is up due to the 

team's success and the new price 

(free). 

3) Will student tickets be 

easy to get? 

From what I can tell, most 

Men's x-country wins easily 

By MARK SPOONAUER 

Assistant Sports Editor 

The Villanova University men's 

cross country team has reason to 

be optimistic going into the Big 

East Conference Championships 

this Veekend at Franklin Park in 

Boston. Despite not having their 

top runner finish the race, the 

Wildcats still managed to take five 

of the top nine places at the 

Maryland Invitational Oct. 15 for 

a very impressive win. With a 

point total of 28, 'Nova easily 

defeated the five team field whose 

runner-up, George Washington, 

was separated by 30 points. 

Senior Ken Nason took top 

honors for his first ever collegiate 

cross country victory, covering 

the 8,000 meter course in 25:20.89. 

The runner-up from George 

Mason, Ibrahim Aden, was outdistanced 

by Nason by almost 

nine seconds. 

Usually Nova's first scorer, 

Louie Quintana, running with a 

commanding lead, tripped on a 

root just before the two-mile mark 

and did not complete the race. 

"I was 20 seconds in front of 

everyone, but just as I was turning 

the corner, I twisted my knee and 

felt an intense burning," said 

Quintana. 

Apparentlv the golf course on 

which the race was run had some 

rugged side trails. 

"It was really scary at first," 

said Quintana. "One knee banged 

into the other." 

Nevertheless, the pain soon 

subsided and now all that remains 

is a bruise. In fact, Quintana is 

more than ready to compete in the 

Big East Championships. 

"I'm in great shape," said 

Quintana. "I'm really looking 

forward to the Big East." 

Of Nason 's performance, Quintana 

was particularly impressed 

with not only how good he looked, 

but how smart he ran. 

"Ken was cruisin'," said Quintana. 

"It looked as if he could have 

run 35 to 40 seconds faster, but 

he knew he wouldn't have to push 

it." 

First year Head Coach John 

Marshall also commended Nason 

after his victory. 

"It was a tremendous effort by 

Ken Nason to step up and get his 

first cross country win, and a 

great feeling for all of us," said 

Marshall. 

In fifth place overall was 

'Nova's second finisher, Kevin 

Christiani, who crossed the line 

at 25:42.75. With his best finish 

yet, the Cats' third runner, recent 

Clemson transfer Steve Mazur,

at the hands of the tribe. 

took seventh overall in 25:27.58. 

The team will certainly be counting 

on his surprising success to 

extend through this weekend at 

the conference championships, 

where he is expected to score at 

least fifth for 'Nova. 

Marshall's fourth and fifth 

likely. It will be tougher with the 

"Johnny Come Lately" fans that 

are sure to visit duPont, which is 

what DeFilippo and Kennedy 

hoped to attract. Unfortunately, 

those upperclassmen who paid 

$125 a pop the last few years to 

see Hofstra and American are a 

little bitter. However, the big 

games at duPont (Seton Hall, 

UCONN) will actually be easier to 

get tickets to in the long run, due 

to a positive, yet underpublicized 

change. Students must now show 

id's to get into the student section. 

Only leftover student tickets after 

the lottery will be sold to the 

public. This means that Joe Schmo 

from Passaic won't bring him 

mom, dad, sister, cousin, maid, 

dog, etc., to the Seton Hall game, 

freeing up five more tickets for 

students. 

4) Enough about the tickets, 

when is Chuck eligible? 

Chuck Kornegay, barring any 

problems, will be eligible 

December 22 against Richmond. 

5) What's the deal with the 

new logo? 

Out of deference to the athletic 

department, I will reserve comment 

on the logo until after its 

unveiling this evening, though I 

have seen it and have some 

thoughts on the matter. 

6) Is Kerry Kittles the best 

player in the Big East? 

It is a dead heat between Syra- 

cuse's Lawrence Moten and Kit- 

tles. Believe me, it was tough to 

type that last sentence, but Wolfman 

always gives credit where 

credit is due (except to John 

Calipari). 

7) Can the Wildcats win the 

Big East? 

They can. Yet, so can Pittsburgh. 

The Wildcats will probably 

finish third, unless Allen Iverson 

is ineligible again. (It's like Conrad 

McRae all over again.) In that 

case, the Wildcats will finish in 

second behind Syracuse, who 

looks awful tough this year. 

Villanova has one trump card over 

those two squads — Jonathan 

Haynes. Haynes is entering his 

third year of Division I hoops, 

while Syracuse's Michael Lloyd 

and Iverson, talented as they may 

be, are both rookies. 

harriers, Todd Tressler (26:14.93) 

and Kyle Watson (26:40.20), respectively 

earned ninth and tenth 

places overall. Watson, who has 

had a chronic arch injury, underwent 

surgery over the summer 

and is gradually improving with 

each meet. 

Marshall was pleased with the 

team's performance and is confident 

of its chances to contend at 

tomorrow's Championships. 

"The coaching staff is happy 

with the way everyone ran and 

we now want to be in the top half 

of the conference at the Big East 

Championships," said Marshall. 

On the eve of the Championships, 

the Wildcats are not even 

ranked among the top 25 nationally 

and their conference foe, Georgetown, 

is ranked No. 1. However, 

this plays to 'Nova's advantage. 

"We know we're good Snd what 

we have to do," said Quintana.

"[Their ranking] only takes the 

pressure off of us and places it on

Yankee Conference Football 

By ERIC BEGG 


No. 7 BOSTON UNIVERSITY 

(4-1 Yankee Conference: 6-1 

OveraU) vs. RICHMOND (1-4 

Yankee Conference: 3-5 

Overall) 

After suffering through its first 

loss in two years toJames Madison 

four weeks ago, Boston University 

has rebounded by stomping on 

everyone in its way, including the 

Richmond Spiders, 40-24. 

The Terriers utilized their running 

game as well as their passing' 

game to squash the Spiders. I'he 

normally silent Terrier rushing 

game, ranked near the bottom of 

the Yankee Conference, rushed 

for a season high 220 yards. 

Terrier runners were led by 

freshman running back Julien 

Dale who carried the ball for a 

career high 86 yards on 20 carries, 

including two touchdowns. 

BU quarterback Robert Dougherty, 

who passed for 275 yards on 

22 of 38 passing, even got the 

running bug as he scrambled 13 

times for 44 yards during the 

game. Richmond, which has lost 

its last four games by an average 

of 22 points, returns home this 

week to lick its wounds and 

prepare for the James Madison 

Dukes. The Terriers, however, 

travel to Zoo-Mass this weekend 

to face their first real competition 

in a month, the 4-3 Minutemen. 

No. 12 JAMES MADISON (4- 

1 Yankee Conference: 6-1 

OveraU) vs. No. 14 WILLIAM 

AND MARY (3-2 Yankee 

Conference: 5-3 Overall) 

The biggest Yankee Conference 

game of the year paired up James 

Madison and William and Mary. 

The prize was that winner would 

nearly be guaranteed to be the 

champion of the Yankee Conference's 

Mid-Atlantic division. The 

game, however, did not live up to 

anyone's expectations. 

To paraphrase the ex-hairy 

Cheap Seater, William and Mary 

just didn t smell it. The Dukes 

beat up on the Tribe 33-7, to mark 

their third win in their last four 

tries versus their in-state rivals. 

JMU was led by quarterback Mike 

Cawley, who passed for 227 yards 

and ran for another 85. Running 

back Kelvin Jeter, who scored a 

career-high three touchdowns. 

With this victory added to the 

equation, the Dukes now look like 

the best team in the Yankee 

Conference. Their only loss is to 

6-1 New Hampshire, and their last 

four wins are against teams with 

a combined record of 19-11. 

William and Mary, who were 

hoping to rebound after their 23- 

14 loss to UMass two weeks ago, 

now find themselves at the mercy 

of other teams. The Dukes' victory 

virtually assures them of first 

place in their Division as their 

remaining conference foes have a 

combined record of 6-17.

Postseason hopes fizzle 

By KATE SZUMANSKI 

Editor-in-Chief 

The women's soccer team's 

primary objective at the onset of 

the '94 season: an invitation to the 

Big East Tournament. Now, with 

two games remaining in their 

regular season and a 2-4 final 

record in the Big East Conference, 

the women's goal of Big East postseason 

play more than likely will 

remain unfulfilled. 

"Our 2-4 record in the Big East 

probably is not good enough to 

send us to the tournament," said 

Head Coach Sheldon Chamberlain. 

"I'm almost positive we're 

out of it, but I'm not sure." 

Three weeks ago, however, the 

women's hopes of post-season 

play were not dashed entirely. 

The team travelled to our nation's 

capitol Oct. 8, shutting out Amer- 

ican University, 5-0. 

Senior forward and co-captain 

Marcy Micek recorded a hat trick 

against American, igniting the 

Cats' impressive offensive spark. 

Assisted by freshman Nicole Posil- 

lico and junior midfielder Ali 

Maue, Micek first scored off the 

lower right corner of the net with 

35:05 minutes into the match. 

With 45:40 minutes on the 

clock, Micek scored her second 

goal, an unassisted curved comer 

kick. Six minutes later, Micek 

scored her third, a blasted point 

blank shot off midfielder Eileen 

McCarthy's assist. Micek is the 

team's leading scorer, boasting 11 

goals to date. 

Freshman Molly Bushman and 

Maue contributed to Micek's 

' offensive onslaught, scoring two 

goals each. 

"We had a great day down 

there," said Chamberlain. "We 

did all of the simple things that 

were super-effective. Everything 

came together that day." 

The Wildcats returned to the 

friendly confines of the West 

Campus Soccer Complex to host 

Princeton University Oct. 12, 

defeating the Tigers, 3-1. 

"We kept things going. Princeton 

has a good team; they are well 

coached," said Chamberlain. "We 

worked hard to win." 

Sophomore forward Kathleen 

Roman, McCarthy and Micek 

scored 'Nova's three goals securing 

the win. 

The women's luck at home ran 

out Oct. 16 as the Cats fell to a 

nationally ranked James Madison 

University, 3-1. "We were in the 

game and were competitive," said 

Chamberlain. "The score doesn't 

indicate how close the game was; 

we tied the score 1-1 at halftime. 

Our defenders also did a great 

job." 

Offensive giant Micek scored 

the Cats lone goal, a cross air shot 

through the net, with 43:30 minutes 

into the match. 

The Cats then traveled north to 

take on Big East Conference rival 

UConn Oct. 19. The Cats fell to 

the nationally ranked Huskies, 6- 

0. 

"We played a super first half; 

we were consistently in their 

attack zone. The score was 1-0 

UConn at the half," said Chamberlain. 

"The women gave all they 

had. Come the second half, however, 

things fell apart. UConn 

Women flawless In MD 

By PETER MC DONOUGH 

Sta^ Reporter 

The Villanova women's team 

achieved perfection at the Univer- 

sity of Maryland Invitational Oct. 

15. In order for a team to score 

perfectly in a meet, they must 

place their top five runners in the 

first five spots. The Cats did so 

and scored a 15 overall, leaving 

second place Maryland in the dust 

with an overall score of 72. 

Once again led by senior Becky 

Spies and junior Jen Rhines, the 

Wildcats blew away the field to 

regain their winning ways which 

were in question after placing 

second to Arkansas just two 

weeks earlier. The loss ended a 

five year winning streak of 38 

consecutive wins. This victory 

sends their record in five years to 

39 wins in 40 meets, still a very 

respectable record. 

Spies led the Wildcats, crossing 

the line first on the 5000 meter 

course in 17:10.97; Rhines finished 

second at 17:14.45. These two 

have taken the top two spots in 

all three of 'Nova's meets this 

year, with Spies taking first twice 

and Rhines once. 

Rounding out the top five for 

'Nova were sophomore Krestena 

Sullivan who came in third at 

. 17:45.47, and senior Emer Molloy, 

who finished in fourth place at 

18:25.68. The fifth finisher overall 

and final scorer for 'Nova was 

junior Stacy Robinson, who 

crossed the line at 18:30.30. 

Aside from the top five, 'Nova 

placed six more runners overall 

among the top 47. Sophomore 

Cara Salabrici came in 12th with 

a time of 19:30.56. Freshman Ryan 

Sartwell finished 30 seconds later 

in 23rd place. Junior Cathalina 

Staye, who normally runs the 400 

meters during the track season, 

finished in 20:09.91 in 25th place. 

Head Coach John Marshall was 

very pleased with the team's 

performance. 

"The women did a tremendous 

job," said Marshall. "The purpose 

of this meet was to focus for the 

Big East Championships because 

Providence is ranked No. 1 and 

this will be our biggest meet of 

the year to date." 

The team's success from two 

weeks ago earned them a second 

place ranking in the most recent 

NCAA Division I Women's Cross 

Country Coaches Association 

Poll, ahead of Arkansas, who 

dropped from second place to, 

fourth. Providence College will be 

the Cats biggest foe tomorrow in 

the Big East Championships at 

Franklin Park in Boston. 

Right now, the NCAA championships 

are less than a month 

away, and the Cats are still 

seeking that sixth consecutive 

scored five goals in the second half 

and outshot us 13 to 7." 

The Cats continued their road 

trip, defeating the Seton Hall 

University Pirates Oct. 22, 5-0. 

"This is Seton Hall's first year as 

a unit," said Chamberlain. "It 

was an understandable win for us. 

"Seton Hall offered no offense 

for the entire first half and played 

all defense—five midfielders and 

five defenders," said Chamber- 

lain. "They gave us a difficult 

. time in the first half." 

Come the second half, however, 

Seton Hall changed its game. 

Sophomore defender Kara Stanislawczyk 

scored off an assist from 

senior midfielder Sara Levendusky 

with 51 :59 minutes into the 

game. Levendusky then scored 

her own goal off an assist from 

freshman defender Beth 

McCaffery with 56:40 minutes on 

the clock. 

Freshman Christina Corones 

followed Levendusky's goal, scoring 

off a Micek assist; Micek 

followed with her own goal with 

65:12 minutes into the game. 

Sophomore Gigi Romero then 

scored off junior forward Julie 

Flister's assist with 84:08 on the 

clock. 

The women host the LaSalle 

University Explorers tomorrow at 

10 a.m. The team winds up its 

season on the road against Rutgers 

Nov. 2. (Information from yesterday's 

Stonybrook match-up was 

not available for publication.)

finish the season with three 

wins," said Chamberlain. "We are

disappointing, but when they face

a true test to see where they stand

'Nova chailenges tfl 

Stanford out West 

By JOE PATTERSON 

Assistant Sports Editor 

While the majority of Villanova 

students headed home for Fall 

Break, the women's volleyball 

team travelled to California^ to 

face some of the best teams in the 

country, including No. 1 Stanford. 

The first match of the West 

Coast trip was against St. Mary's. 

Villanova won 3-0 with incredibly 

close scores of 18-16, 16-14 and 15- 

13.^ 

"That was a great volleyball 

match," said Head Coach Ron 

Twomey. "It was the best of the 

year." 

Indeed, several 'Nova players 

contributed career-high performances. 

Freshman sensation 

Stacy Evans totaled a career-best 

26 kills, while senior Amy Lam 

added a career-high 13 kills. 

Senior Molly Gorman also established 

a personal-best with 15 

digs. 

Despite these individual superlatives, 

'Nova had an extremely 

balanced attack. Sophomore Debbi 

Picco had 14 kills and 12 digs 

while senior Mara Austrins contributed 

a game-high 17 digs. 

Junior Cari Clawson continued to 

be consistent as a setter, totalling 

57 assists. 

The next match pitted the 

Wildcats against San Francisco, 

who was coming off a convincing 

victory over Perperdine. 'Nova 

stole a game, 15-10, but eventually 

fell 3-1. Evans (14 kills, 14 digs), 

Austrins (18 digs) and Picco (12 

digs) each had major contributions 

in what turned out to be a very 

defensive game. Both teams ended 

up with hitting percentages of less 

than .170, while they combined for 

164 digs. 

However, the excitement 

peaked when the Wildcats took on 

the No. 1 team in the country, 

Stanford. In fact, Stanford, who 

had three U.S. National players on 

its roster, had never seriously 

been challenged. 

"They are reputed to be the best 

team ever in college volleyball," 

Twomey said. "It was really fun 

to play against them." 

"Since we had never played 

against the high competition, we 

were very excited," said Picco. 

"We weren't even nervous playing 

them because we knew we were 

the underdogs coming out from 

the beginning." 

Despite losing 3-0 (15-16, 15-13, 

15-6), 'Nova played inspired ball 

and led in each of the three games, 

including a 12-2 advantage in the 

second game. Villanova's 13 points 

in the second game represented 

only the seventh time out of 58 

games that Stanford has surrendered 

that many. The match was 

played in front of over 2,000 fans. 

"It was just fun to play in front 

of that many people and to see how 

much support volleyball gets out 

on the West Coast," said Picco. 

Evans, who lives in California, 

had another impressive match, 

totalling 14 kills, eight digs. Picco 

and Austrins combined for 16 kills 

and 22 digs. 

"We achieved all of our goals 

in terms of points scored," said 

Twomey. 

The final match for the Cats 

was against another nationallyranked 

Santa Barbara squad. 

Ranked No. 7 in the nation, Santa 

Barbara handed Villanova its 

ninth loss of the season. 

"The California trip was a great 

experience," said Picco. "It taught 

the new players that there was 

a lot more out there. We really 

learned what West Coast volleyball 

was." 

Ironically, senior Amy Burke 

and sophomore Karen Foster, 

both California natives, were 

unable to compete on the West 

Coast due to injuries. Burke is out 

with shoulder problems while 

Foster has been sidelined with an 

injured wrist. 

Villanova has returned home 

and has a tough task at hand. The 

Cats must win its final three Big 

East matches of the year in order 

to be eligible for the conference 

championship. 

"We've really picked it up a lot," 

said Picco. "Unfortunately we lost 

a few matches that we were really 

frustrated about losing. But all in 

all, I think we're having a great 

season and the team is really 

starting to gel." 

Villanova must pin any postseason 

hopes on the remaining Big 

East matches. The Cats take on 

Seton Hall tonight at 6:30 p.m. at 

Jake Nevin Field House. 

Next Friday, the team will 

travel to Washington, D.C. to play 

Georgetown. The regular season 

will close out with a home match 

agamst the Pittsburgh Panthers 

Nov. 6.

'Nova defense shines at Northeastern 

Dunaway tallies 11 

tackles in victory 

By TODD LESKANIC 

Sports Editor 

It wasn't Mozart, but it was a 

win. That is the only way to look 

at Villanova's unimpressive 13-9 

victory at Northeastern last 

Saturday. 

"We were lucky to get out of 

there with a win," said Head 

Coach Andy Talley. "We didn't 

play well across the board and we 

definitely didn't improve from 

this one. 

The 'Nova defense proved to be 

the deciding factor, holding the 

Huskies to 272 yards of total 

offense. Key players in the defensive 

success were senior Andy 

Cobaugh, junior Tyrone Frazier 

and sophomore Curtis Dunaway. 

Although Cobaugh managed 

just two tackles, one was a tackle 

for a loss and the other was a sack. 

He also forced a fumble. Frazier 

recorded six tackles, one for a loss 

and a sack. Dunaway led all 'Nova 

tacklers with 11 tackles and also 

broke up two passes. 

"They play a run-and-shoot as 

well as an I-formation offense," 

said Talley. "It was difficult to 

prepare for them, but our defense 

just shut them down." 

Early on, it looked like the Cats 

might break out of their recent 

offensive woes. A seven yard pass 

from Tom Marchese to Brian 

Finneran gave the Cats a 7-0 lead 

just over seven minutes into the 

game. Still, the early touchdown 

would be the only one for the 

'Nova offense, as six turnovers 

stopped the Cats throughout most 

of the contest. 

"Offensively, we felt like we 

could have scored more," said 

Talley. "Turnovers killed us." 

There were some positives on 

offense, one of which was the play 

of the tailbacks. Anthony 

Cowesette carried 15 times for 72 

yards, lifting himself from his 

recent slump. More importantly, 

however, was the play of Gary 

Dennis, a junior tailback who was 

injured early in the year. Dennis 

carried three times for 32 yards, 

including a 25-yard scamper that 

set up 'Nova's first score. 

"It was nice to get Gary back 

into the mix," said Talley. 

Sophomore Steve Shepard also 

carried seven times for 23 yards. 

Special teams breakdowns also 

haunted the Cats throughout the 

game. However, Northeastern 

was only able to capitalize on one.

Head Coach Andy Talley leads the 4-4 Cats into tomorrow's Homecoming game against William 

and Mary. 

'Nova leading 7-0, Northeastern's 

Antwaine Smith blocked a Frank 

Venezia punt, giving the Huskies 

the ball on the Cats' 23. Five plays 

later, Husky quarterback Clarzell 

Pearl ran in from six yards out 

for the score. Only a missed extra 

point kept the Cats in front. 

Husky kicker Brandon Hanes 

booted a 27-yard field goal late in 

the second half to put Northeastern 

up 10-9 going into the half. 

Early in the second half, how- 

ever, the 'Nova defense struck. 

Cobaugh forced a fumble, which 

was recovered and returned by 

Kyle Helton to the Husky 28. The 

Cats capitalized on the turnover 

as Mark Kiefer kicked a 40 yard 

field goal to give 'Nova the lead 

Ticket distribution revamped 

By SEAN KELLY 

Sports Editor 

The student basketball ticket 

distribution plan was finalized by 

the Student Government Association 

(SGA) and the Villanova 

Department of Athletics earlier 

this month, making 1,500 free 

student tickets available for 

games in the duPont Pavilion and 

2,850 student tickets for each of 

the two games at the Spectrum. 

Season tickets will be issued to 

300 students on a first come, first 

serve basis, with 1,200 remaining 

for either general distribution or 

a lottery system. 

The season ticket packages will 

be issued to the first 300 Villanova 

undergraduates beginning Oct. 30 

at 8 a.m. Any remaining season 

ticket packages will be added into 

the regular distribution pool. 

The remaining 1,200 student 

tickets will be issued for a series 

of eight mini-packages ranging in 

size from one to three games each. 

Specific allocation dates (see page 

12) have been scheduled that will 

require students to enter a distribution 

center (duPont Pavilion), to 

see if they will automatically 

receive free tickets. Should the 

number of students interested in 

a particular mini-package exceed 

the 1,200 limit, the Wildcat Ticket 

Office will be forced to give the 

free tickets away through a lottery 

system. 

Part-time students and gradu- 

ate students are not eligible for 

this allocation process. Those 

students will be able to purchase 

a ticket at the student rate in the 

event that all student tickets have 

not been collected. 

There is no advantage to getting 

in line early for the mini-package 

distributions, even if a lottery 

should occur. Only random lotteries 

will take place, giving each 

student an equal opportunity to 

obtain tickets. Any student who 

receives tickets must first show 

a valid student identification card. 

Should the number of tickets 

exceed the number of students 

who appear at the distribution, 

students will be able to obtain 

tickets on a first come, first serve 

basis at the Villanova Ticket 

Office beginning at noon the next 

business day. The process will 

continue in this manner until all 

tickets are distributed. 

According to Vince Nicastro, 

director of Ticket Operations, 

after noon the business day prior 


for the final time, 10-9, with 9:50 

left in the third quarter. 

Another Kiefer field goal later 

in the third quarter rounded out 

the scoring as the 'Nova defense 

was able to make a four point lead 

stand up.

Wildcat Club 

offers support 

By TODD LESKANIC 

Sports Editor 

Since its founding in 1973, the 

Villanova Educational Foundation, 

better known as The Wildcat 

Club, has been supporting Villanova 

athletics through its fundraising 

and alumni support. 

"The Wildcat Club is an athletic 

fundraiser for the university," 

said Wildcat Club President Bob 

Capone. "It's been here for 21 

years and it has a positive affilitation 

agreement with 

Villanova." 

According to Capone, most of 

the donations the Wildcat Club 

receives are from former athletes 

and alumni who are close to the 

athletic department. The Club 

then uses these donations to help 

support any type of athletics that 

may be going on at the University 

through advertising, promotions 

or simple financial aid. 

"Our job is to raise the awareness 

of the athletic programs 

going on at Villanova," said 

Capone. 

In its existence, the Club has 

contributed a total of $3.5 million, 

$400,000 of which is endowment, 

said Capone. 

"We are the fourth largest 

donor to Villanova," he said. 

"Only the alumni, the Feileral 

Government and the Connelly 

Foundation rank in front of the 

Wildcat Club." 

The Wildcat Club also plays a 

major role with alumni. For example, 

the Club holds a tailgate party 

before every home and away 

football game for alumni and 

other supporters of the team. In 

addition, they host a reception 

following each game. 

Although it may seem that the 

Club only supports football and 

basketball, Capone said that the 

high-profile sports are not supported 

without regard to the other 

sports. For example, the Club 

sponsored a bus to the women's 

cross country championships last 

year. 

"The media attention basically 

goes to football and basketball," 

he said. "But, that doesn't mean 

that all Villanova athletes don't 

deserve or get what they need 

from us." 

"We think that every student 

athlete out there deserves our 

support," he said. "In fact, we 

think that some of the lesserknown 

athletes are a great exam- 

ple of what a Villanovan can be." 

Recruits attend Wildcat Roar 

By JONATHAN 

PASSMAN 


The season has yet to begin, 

but recruiting already is in full 

swing. Villanova has received 

an oral cgmmitment from John 

Celestand, a 6-3 guard from 

Piscataway, NJ. Celestand, 

who was rated No. 82 by the 

Sporting News College Basketball 

Preview, turned down 

Rutgers and UConn. 

Villanova is also in hot pursuit 

of Howard Brown, a 6-4 

guard from Pottstown, PA. 

Brown has an explosive first 

step and a quick release from 

beyond the three-point arc. 

Earlier this month, the Hmlford 

Courant reported that 

V 

Brown has narrowed his list 

down to Villanova and UConn. 

On a k)cal note, 6-11 center 

Rafael Bigus of Archbishop 

Carroll is also looking closely 

at Villanova. St. Joe's is Villan- 

ova's primary competitor for 

Bigus. Lari Ketner, a 6-10 

center from Philadelphia's 

Roman Catholic has Villanova 

as one of his final four 

possibilities. 

According to Big East Briefs, 

Villanova has also been named 

on several other high school 

player lists, including Pete 

Sauer (6-7, Pittsbunfh), Terrell 

Stokes (51 1, Philadelphia), 

Bobby Joe Evans (6-9, McKin- 

ncy, TX) and Arthur Lee (6^, 

N. Hollywood, CA).
