It is the easiest thing in the world to say everybroad for herself—saying it and acting that wayis one thing that's kept some of us behind the

eight ball where we've been living for a hundredyears.

t Biilie Holliday

One of the best means for women to communicate with each otherand become aware of methods others have found successful inhandling the problems women share today is the contemporarymagazine. Although there are now several fine magazines whichfunction as forums for women, the Learning Resource Center doesnot subscribe to even one of them . W e ask that this situation beremedied at once. T | f | |

As for choice of magazine, we recommend Ms.jJAside from articles on health matters and personal experiences, Ms. presentsinformation on women in history, new ideas for education and childrearin g, and discussion of laws as applied to women. Clearly, suchmaterial would be of interest and value to the men as well as thewomen on campus. | 1 r

If you would like to se e women get out from behind the eight ball,make yourself heard with a request for Ms. to the LRC.

O B April 28. 1974, the Brie County Chapter of the

March Of Di ms will conduct lte 4t h Annual Big Walk.

The focus of the conventionis pre-professional priorities.Two areas which studentsplan to examine closely areteacher Menure and certification.

by Susan We ine r

The M ercy hurs t production ofCat on a Hot Tin Roof, under thedirection of Pa ul biddings, w asdone in true Tennessee W illiamsstyle. But Christi :Warnick'sMaggie failed to keep a strongimpression of the | desperatewoman before us throughout theplay. | f | 1

The set of white lattice-likestructures, wicker furniture, andhanging moss bathed in tones ofblue and purple created anatmosphere of the South for thebattle over the Poilit fortune. Anearthy guitar provided an ap

propriate background forMaggie's battle to win back herhusband I from alcohol £ andremorse.& Ms.fWarnick gave an unevenperformance as the woman whofound the strength to face thetruth*behind he r husband'sdrunkenness and to fight for hisshare of̂ his dying father's fortune.

The outstanding aspect ofChristi's performance was hermastery of movements for therole. HowJ natural? and fittingappeared her lounging on the bedwhile telling Brick about the "no-neck monsters," her fidgetingwith her slip while telling Brickhow she feels about him, and hercomforting of Big Moma. •£ Though Ms. W arnick playedher part most convincingly in thethird act, "the characterizationwas still flawed by the actress'svoice, which sounded too raspy

for the sensuous Maggie. Anotherflaw in the last act was the senseof indecency (when it should havebeen awe) effected when Maggieritualistically felt along thelength of Big Daddy's soft robe.

Christi did not become M aggie;there were weak spots in theportrayal of the fiery character.For example, she didn't seem tofeel anything upon catching Bricklooking at her in the mirror; sheseemed only to be reacting oncue. ? ft M I

Ms. W arnick performed hersenior? thesis w ith a good supporting cast. Michael Morris asBrick and Mina Eisenberg as BigMoma performed exceptionallywell. They each created for theirroles the sense that a characterwas truly living onstage.

manifestation of these endeavorsonyour tour.''

To begin, JKnight Roberto hadus sit in on a class. The instructorwas giving a quiz that day. Thefirst question read: |

The opposite of rich isA. All of the above fB. PoorC. D estituteD. StupidE . B , C , D , a n d E |F. None of theaboveLooking at the quiz, my friend's

Mother remarked, ''Things ar ecertainly complicated incollege." The Father added, "W enever had anything like this in myday." I

The next stop was the|LRC.Roberto told the history of thebuilding, ending with "W e haverecently adorned the walls withpaintings our artisans havecreated . . . like these ." Hepointed out the op art in thereference room. "My goodness,"the Mother 2 asked, "how cananyone read with those staringyou in the face? " I

Upstairs in the LRC, Robertotook us to the window on the northside. "From here," he said, "youcan have an enchanting view ofthe lake." I i

My neighbor spoke up. "Get aload of that enchanting view," he

said, looking into the conferencerooms opposite the window. In

one room, a male student wasdevouring a fish, fry, and piedinner from McDonald's as hewrote furiously amid stacks ofopen books and debris coveredwith golden arches. In the otherroom, a female student let puffsof smoke emanating from hercigarette obscure the no smokingsign. | l f | R

Roberto tried to i laugh it off."Must be an early April Fool'sjoke, ha, ha." He rushed us out ofthe building. ¥jl | jfg

My neighbor asked to see thegym and * Roberto reluctantlyagreed i to showK

it He keptstressing that it was only used forpractice and that the basketballteam^played at the new FieldHouse. I asked, "The women'steam, too?" Roberto mumbled"no" and failed to mention thatuntil this season the women didhave their games in the gym J |•| The next place was the studentunion. As we walked past thebookstore, a cannon blast rockedthe union. Or so we thought.Roberto fearlessly marched intothe area near the snackmachines. He returned with a

as more blasts polluted theair. "It's only a few serfs shakingup the pinball machines. This isreally an elegant place. W e heldour senior party here." TheMother whispered to^me, "I'mglad I wasn't invited."

To wind up theK tour, Robertoescorted us the jj the PublicRelations Office where my neighbor and I were presented withgilt yo-yos. |My friend? commented, "Somehow this yo-yoseems an appropriate momento."

When we were in the car on ourway home, 'I asked my neighborswhat they thought of the school."You know, after seeingeverything," the high schoolsenior said, "I honestly can'tdecide whether the college failedthe students or the students failedthe college."

The parents chanted in chorus,"Mavbe it s a little bit of both."

Sex is not afDirty World! |There w ill be a group discussion, on the topic of sexuality, held

at 7:00 p.m. on Monday" evening,!April 1. (no fools!) Themoderator for this seminar will be Mr. Paul Newcomb, aprofessor here at the'Hurst. jj$

Those of you who attended the first seminar received the facts;

what will take place this time is a discussion of those facts andother related aspects of the subject of ̂ sexuality. Perhaps thisprogram will stimulate each of us to flie degree w here we willhopefully become mo re awa re of our bodies and ourselves.

DAMP'S DIVOTS

Crew Outlooki b y D a r io Q p r l a n i ,

* The Mercyhurst College Crew Team begins its third spring ofintercollegiate rowing, on Easter Sunday, in competition withNotre Dame University. Following a successful fall season, D aveShimpeno's bunch are ready and raring to row against theirtoughest all-around schedule, to date.

Dual m atches with Notre Dame,* Grand Valley State ,, andW ayne State University, dot the 'Hurst card along with a spot inprestigious events such as the Mid-American Rowing Regattaand the Dad Vail Invitational Rega tta. A new twist will be addedto the events on the Erie Bay this spring; the first annual Mercyhurst Bay Invitational Regatta will be held on April 27.featuring strong squads'from Buffalo State, the University ofBuffalo, and Morris Harvy. I * i £ | f II Despite their exceptionally tough schedule, the advance

outlook o n the Lakers is extremely bright. Shimpeno has twelvereturning lettermen back from last season's winning campaign.H e compliments these veter ans, with an influx of hefty freshmenw ho garne red much experience from the fall season. Competitionfor both the seats in both the Varsity-eight and the junior varsityboats will be stiff and this will certainly add s tability to the Lak ershells* 7 ^||1 i I J f | |

Along with Shimpeno, the 'Hurst coaching staff is blessed withfour assistant coaches who would add a touch of class to anysmall college rowing program. J B o b Angelucci, Jack Gartner,Shel Potter and Alan Belovarac give much of their spare time toth e program and without their assistance, it would not be where itis today Belovarac, a June grad and letterman from last year'ssquad, will handle die novice boat. Potter, whose aid in preparing

the shells for the water, is incalculable and has been with the'Hurst crew program since its inception. Gartner and Angelucci,both, are very experienced oarsmen, helping with the technicalaspects in preparing the Laker men and women for competition.Shimpeno, who was never exposed to the sport before joining the'Hurst staff, is learning rapidly and is quickly becoming arespected individual in the crew coaching circles. A former Ail-American soccer performer for Pitt University, Dave has conditioned his men and women to a fine tune, even-though the icywaters of Lake Erie have been w orking to h is disadvantage. Q

Speaking of th e weather, the rowers were o u t last Sunday, when' there w a s snow on the ground and the thermometer was hoveringaround the 20 degree figure. Tha t's the kind of dedication, on thepart of the team and the coaches, that will make the season andthe team successful. T h e program has come a long way in a shortwhile a n d , because of this, the Mercyhurst Crew Team is capableof holding their own against th e best in small-college rowing. |f.
