greensleeve players projectovs president meets studentssisters" *or *'rs* i'n* counc"

The Greensleeve Players, underthe direction of Miss Kathleen Mc-Manus, will present this weekendas their fall production AntonChekhov's The Three Sisters,fatragi-comedy of the naturalisticperiod set in Russia before the turnof the century. The production ofthis play has been the subject ofmuch controversy since its openingat the Moscow Art Theatre in1901. It was then directed by Con-stantin Stanislavski who conceivedthe play as a trag edy and stagedit inj;those terms. His staging inspired an enraged correspondencefrom the playwright who insistedthat Three Sisters w as "vaudevil le"and that Stanislavski had destroyedit with a "melodramatic" interpretation. Stanislavski's reputation,nevertheless, obviously created aprecedent; and the play has sincebeen produced primarily as a tragedy.

Although the play has a tendencyto tip into soap operawhichmight explain Stanislavski's tragicvision of fit, Miss McManus hasbroken tradition and staged theplay as as comedy acording to theplaywright's direction, using the

soap operatic element as pathos andthus , as part of the comic effectrather than fighting i t as rathermaudlin melodrama. She receivedsome help in this interpretat ionfrom Mr. Igor Stalsky's t ranslat ionof Checkov in a modern, more flexible idiom.The comedy as well as the plot ofThree Sisters l ies in the charac ters.Their absurdity and their exaggeration absolutely prohibits | their interpretat ion in straight dramaticterms. But neither is this comedysilly and hilarious and, consequently, pointless. It is impossible notto laugh at the characters and attheir pathetic foolishness; but it isalso impossible not to feel throughthem some confrontation with thetruth, some recognition of the foolishness in every individual. Character is exaggerated, but not farbeyond reality, not fat beyondclose identification. The patheticfoolishness in the final act is thenactually sobering. What had previously made these characters absurd is now carried!so far that i tmakes them sad, 'jfeven shocking.The subtle truth behind the obvious farce can, perhaps, be

formal ceremony enhancesrecent freshman investiture

On Sunday, October 22, the members of the class of 1971 were officially accepted into the Mercyhurstcommunity. The Investiture ceremony, one of Mercyhurst's oldestand finest traditions, took place at2:00 p. m. in Christ the King Chapel. The pare nts of the studen tshad been invited to Mercyhurst fora week-end of events and were

guests in the chapel for the investiture ceremony itself. ?All the freshmen wore theirfull academic attir e includingblack academic cap and gown andwhite glovesfor the first time.Thus dressed, they took*part in aprocession into the chapel wherethe Investiture took place.After the freshmen had assembled in the chapel, Jane Carney, Senior class president, gave the opening a ddress of welcome to the freshmen on behalf of the seniors. Following this short talk, the four senior class officers placed the academic cap on the heads of the fourrepresentatives of the freshmanclass. At the same time, every

other member of the freshmanclass put on her own academic cap,with the tassel in the freshman corner. This act symbolized their formal acceptance into the Mercyhurstcommunity.Next on the program, Joyce Mos-ciaro, the freshman representative,delivered the freshman response.Following Miss Mosciaro's talk, thefreshmen recited, in unison, thetraditional freshman pladge.Dr.? John A. Donatelli, Litt. D.,Chairman of the Division of Theology, Philosophy, & Psychology,was the guest speaker for theevent.

The President's Council was established last year at the suggestion of Sister M. Carolyn, President of Mercyhurst. The purposeof this council is essentially one ofcommunication; to enable the students and the president of the col-lege to discuss important problemsand issues. There are five studentrepresentatives on the council,chosen from the student body by asign-up before each meeting.The first meeting of the President's Council for the 1967-68 academic year was held on the afternoon of Thursday, October 5. Sister Carolyn met with Jan Boling,Linda Salem, Pat O'Shea, SharonParlock, and Sue Walsh. JAfter welcoming the studentsback to a new school year, SisterCarolyn began a discussion on twostatesments of student rights: the"Statement of Desirable Provisionsfor Student Freedom to Learn" bythe American Association of Colleges and the "Joint Statement ofthe Rights and Freedoms of Students" by N. S. A., A. A. U. P., andthree other organizations. The students agreed with Sister Carolynthat the administration, faculty,and student body should all beaware of these statements. In addition, discussions of the most important issues might be organizedby SGA with a view toward neces

sary policy making.Sister Carolyn then described thestructure of the College Senate,composed of members of the faculty and administration as well asa number of committees.The final subject-of discussionwas the statement of the purpose ofMercyhurst, drawn up by the Academic Blueprint Committee. Ac cording to this statement, it is theaim of {Mercyhurst "through theliberal arts . . . to inspire in herstudents a range of interests, adepth of appreciation and facilityof thought and action needed for effective living in a complex and freesociety." The Mercyhurst programis designed to prepare each studentfor the fulfillment of her intellectual, social, and professional tasksin life.Sister Carolyn expressed herwish for thorough discussions ofMercyhurst's statement of purposein relation to the statements onstudent rights. All the people ofMercyhurst should become involvedin these discussions. In this way,agreement or disagreement with thevarious proposals on student rightswould be clearly established. And,rather than wait until problems ofpolicy arise, it would be .possibleto set up reasonable policies inagreement ? with the objectives ofthe college.

outlook projected for 1968 electionsby Susan Sutto

With the election of a Presidentoccurring within a year, it is of interest for most political forecasterstoday to be predicting the outcome.Onefof the most accurate opinionpredictors in the past, which maybe considered as a yardstick for thefuture, is the Gallop Poll. In theclose election of 1960, the GallupPoll's error was a mere 0.9% inpredicting John J Kennedy would beelected. For political observers, thisis a means of evaluating positions.It is good to keep in mind, however, that most aspirants have notyet announced their intentions.In any consideration or outlookfor 1968,-it is essential to includethe vote-getting power of LyndonJohnson. The popularity of thePresident has dipped to an all-timelow according to the Gallup Poll. InJanuary of 1965, 71 % of the populace agreed with the politics of thePresident, but as of September,1967, only 39% approved. The dropin the President's popularity mostlikely can be linked with his policycondoning the war in Viet Nam. Itmust be remembered, however, thatLyndon Johnson is a master politician capable of again gaining thesupport of his people. The end result of a Democratic ticket headedby Mr. Johnson will hinge on VietNam and whom the RepublicanParty chooses to challenge his position.

The leading Republican contender for the nomination to date hasbeen Govenor George Romney ofMichigan. His popularity as of theSeptember Gallup Poll was aheadof President Johnson's. On a hypothetical ticket of Johnson vs. Romney, the poll takers favor Romneyas the victor. The recent chargeby the Michigan governor thathe was brainwashed while inViet Nam appears to have been apolitical blunder. Most critics feelthat even though the charge maybe valid, its disclosure seventeenmonths after th e incident reduces

its credibility. There is also thequestion of whether he is eligiblefor the Presidency since he wasborn in a foreign country. The recent edition of the New York StateLaw Review states that he is noteligible and that jit may take aSupreme Court case to decide theissue. &It is also possible that formerVice-President Nixon, should he decide to run, could be a strong matchfor Mr. Johnson. *As the popularity of Governor Romney begins toslide, dark horses such as Nixon,Percy, Rockefeller, and RonaldRegan begin to become? possibilities. The governor of Californiaseems to be casting a spell over his

state, and possibly he could expandhis horizons. Senator Percy andGovernor Rockefeller are provenvote-getters and have much appealto those trying to counteract theJohnson Administration. AnotherRepublican nominee will only*begin to move to the front if it appears that Governor Romney cannot maintain his popularity untilthe convention.With the primary in New Hampshire in the early part of 1968, thepower of Johnson, Romney, Rockefeller, Regan, and Percy willS betested. This primary has been agood indicator ^in the 3 past, andthere is no reason to doubt its contribution in 1968.freshmen entertained atpre-college day activities

how to look at a paintingby Wendy Walsh

The exhibit currently at ErieCity Hall consists of 99 panels ofreproductions with accompanyingtext on the "art" of viewing art.

Pane l one , demonstra tes the difference between actual thing and apicture of it, illustrated by JanVan Huyseum's "Bouquet ."Imagination is stressed as thesupreme tool of the arti st. Theshapes and colors he chooses areonly a guide to his emotional feelings. Imagina t ion dic ta tes , and a r tobeys, to the reaches or limits ofthe artists ' skill. Composition, theway the shapes and color are arranged, is of furth er importan cein discovering the feelings of thepainter. The approach is highlypersonal, mere illustration meaning

little. Thus, the complexity of theselection denies formulas.Basic elements of design, such aslines, also play essential roles butit is emphasized that there is moreto looking?at a pa int ing. RaphaeilSanzio's "Cowper Madonna," panelseven, and Giovanni Battista Tie-palo's, "Apollo and Daphne," paneljeight, bring out the importance ofsymbols, jmythology, religion, ^andl i te ra ture in inte rpre ta t ion.Symbols only find meanin gthrough explana t ion. Although apainting is the finished thought ofthe artist, on paper, the viewer isfree to interpret personality as thevalue of the artist and his talentlies in their special ability to create media through which we alsocan "see."

INoting the difficulty in judgingpieces either good or bad, flexibleopinions are stressed, adaptingmore readily to the world of artand i t s myr iad changes . Persona lopinions are essential to the creative vitality, but opinions of theestablished experts do c a r r yweight.The truth of an individual workis directly related to the vision of

its creator. Since there is not adequate way of presenting the humanconception of reality, as is illus

trated in panel 14, by Giotti DiBondone's, "Deposition," the representations derive from the normsof the area.

In the field of portraiture, theexhibit maintains the smallness ofthe step between capturing theemoting personality and life-likework.Panel 15, Sandro Botticelli 's,"Adoration of the Ma gi," is aseemingly extremely life-like reality, typically resulting from the14c analysis of the principles ofperceptive. However, upon closerobservation the differences betweenartists ' and viewers' realities become evident. There is another difference to be found in the essenceof reality itself, which nothing cancapture .El Greco typifies the heightenedrealism of 15c painting in his,"Christ Driving the Traders fromthe Temple." Each object seems believable enough to invite the touchbut later artists agreed that thiss tyle was no t ' br inging a r t anycloser to reality, as when thingsare viewed normally, if one objectis in focus, the others are slightlyblurred. We rarely see more thanone shape at a time in total clarity. These men, capitalizing on theirweight, brought greater intricacyand drama to their work.Georges Rouaults' , "The OldKing," panel 18, stands subjects fordebate I on* what m akes a portra itgood or bad. Again it resolves to ahighly personal and interpretativematter, taking into account whichcharacteristic of the subject the artist is concerned with.Panels 19 and 20, exhibitingworks of Picasso and Lyonel Fein-inger, complete the show with areemphasis of the importance ofthe imagination of the artist, hischoice of subject and finally his

mode of expression. $To look at paintings, in an effortto see more, can be a serious business but with the truth of art lyingin its basic strangeness we a r e 'sometimes left perhaps realy nonethe wiser but certainly richer!

by Rita Kasun With the success of SGA Cultural Committee 's f irst two movies,"Wild Strawberries" and "Fail-Safe", we are proud to present seven more outstanding films to be

shown in the ne ar future. Thenext, "The Pumpkin Eater," willbe shown on Oct. 31. Anne Bancroft, Academy Award winner asbest actress and one of the mostimportant stars on Broadway, returns to the screen, her f irst motion picture since her prize-winning performance in "The MiracleWorker." Peter Friech, James Gibson and Cedric Hardwicke are alsoappearing in this beautiful and unusual film dealing with a womanwhose sole fulfillment in life is inbearing children. It is an outspoken drama of a woman forced tochoose between divorce or acceptance of her husband's f lagrant infidelities, a decision complicated byher pregnacy and her huge broodof children."Lord-Jim", to be presented onJan uar y 9, is the color, classic taleof a man's attempt to regain hisself-respect after committing anact of cowardice. Peter O'Toolestars in this magnificent motionpicture, as r ich in excitement andadventure as it is in meaningfulscreen characterizations. "LordJim", a film by Richard Brooks isbased on the Joseph Conrad novelof a man 's search for a secondchance. "Lord Jim" brilliantly explores not only the romance andbeauty and terror of the sea andland, but the poetry and the degradation possible to the human spirit."Lord Jim" happily belongs in thecompany of those few films whichstand out, not alone in their year

but in their decade."The Idiot", to be presentedJanu ary 30, has many effectiveshots of Japan. This Japanese version of Dostoevsky's complicatedJnovel is fascinating, particularly inthe character developments and inthe good acting of Masaywki Mori,Toshiro Mifune, and Setsuki Hara.Kurosaw a is a powerful directorand his experiments in this f ilmare more literary than cineramic.

doctor bonkscontroversial

Dr. Murray Ba nks , noted psychologist an d humorist, opened the1967-68 Cultural Series on Tuesday, October 28. His talk washeard by an overflow crowd at theLit t le Theatre. Dr. Banks was given an enthusiast ic standing ovationand afterwards was kept busy forone-half h hour autographing copiesof Tuesday's speech and four othershe often g ives, which we re sellingfor one dollar apiece. (The proceedsgoes to Mental Hea lth.) T o all appearances, he was an outstandingsuccess. However, very few facultymembers (about eight) at tendedand many of those who did weredisappointed and disgusted withwhat they heard. All consideredhim amusing but questioned hispsychology, his status as a professional person other than just anentertainer, and thus the appropriateness of having him ji n a college's cultural series.Dr. Banks did his graduate workat New York and Columiba Universities. He has served as visi t ing andassociate professor in PsychologyDepartments pf nine universi t iesand colleges and headed the Pe-partment of Psychology at PaceCollege, New York City, for overfiveSyears. For the p ast two* decades he has traveled the Englishspeaking world delivering fivestandard talks combining psychology with humor. He has spoken to

Ike and Mamie* Eisenhow er andmembers of Britain 's Royal Family.One of these five lectures has beengiven over 5,000 t imes.p Tuesday's lecture was called "IsThere Life After Birth?" or "Love,Live, and Laugh." Its essence was anine-step recipe for happiness: 1.make the most of what you've got ,2. stay forever young a t . heart , 3.maintain continuing goals, 4. liveeach day as if i t were your last(and someday you'l l be right), 5.if life hands you a lemon, makelemonade, 6. know how to live withyourself, 7. realize that you can'tplease everyone, 8. laugh at life,9. have an educated heartbe sensitive to other's ups and downs.

The* next day of classes, | D r.Banks was blasted in Mr. Sturm'sChild Psychology Class. Dr. Banks,it was maintained, is a professional psychologist in name only anddoes not keep ab rea st of new de velopments in his field. Other faculty members agreed that he isfirst and foremost an entertainerand tha t some of his inform ationw as questionable.? He is art iculate,amusing, clever, but not a j scholar,not worth the $750 paid for him,and not appropriate for an intellectual community's "Cultural Series."One faculty member maintained "IfDr. Banks gets a standing ovation,what do we give Helen Keller? Although this is predominantly a faculty viewpoint, i t is shared by manystudents. One said "There is enoughgood humor around here j withouthim."A majority of the students, however, defended him. A sophomoreclaimed, "He isn't out to givePeople a big lesson in psychologynor merely to entertain them. Hisvalue lies in his ability to makePeople look at themselves and laughat their petty worries." A seniormaintained that not all the peoplewho Ineed psychiatric aid are inmental hospitals. Most everyone

The responseto the questionnaires was sparse,bu t the \ comments turned in wereof value in determining the general attitude toward the effectivenessof the retreat taken as a whole.

In response to the question, "Didyou feel that the retreat wasworthwhile"? most of the studentssimply said "Yes." The studentswho felt tha t an explana tion oftheir answer was necessary hadthis to say: "Definitely yesI wishthe retre at could have lasted longerthan two days . . . Yes, i t really letyou sit down and do some solidthinking for once . . . Yes, extremely so. There was a grea t dealof personal contact . . .

It reminded ' me of a high school retr eatwhere the biggest question iswhether or fnot French kissing iswrong . . . No, not for me. I havealready formulated a philosophy oflife and a method for the determination of moral actions. The retreatwas fine for those who needed it."Naturally, the final judge of theret reat and its worth will be you,the individual. Perhaps it changedyour opinions, perhaps i t only reinforced them . Whatev er fit did ordid notfdo is brought out in thefollowing comments concerning theaccomplishments of the retreat andif it was a source of personal satisfaction.F'Much beyond words was accomplished by the retrea t . The personal

The spirit andthe unity experienced at the smallgroup masses was great . . . Itgave me a chance to come closer toGod . . . Basically, I feel that therewas a terrific feeling of communityand a realization of \ the worth ofother people.

The shallow learning techniqueof a foreign language is often aproduct of studying in your ownnative land. This past summer,however, I had! a rare opportunityto study the language and culturein a lycee, 3,000 miles away in twocompletely dominated European at-mospheresFrance and Switzerland.

With 96 other students from allover America we took our first residence in Meaux, France, a smalltown 30 miles east of Paris . Intensive study of French was conductedfor four hours every day. However,a complete taste of France comesfrom a contact with the simple, unsophisticated life of the people.What struck me as really interesting was the fact that there are nobi g supermarketsrather one storehas his own small neuroses, and Dr.Banks' elementary psychology andhumor does help.

the Seine River.France rMs a pret ty count ry , bu tSwitzerland copped this quality ahundredlftimes over. We were located in Leipin, an alpine townnear Lake Geneva for 'our2 lastthree weeks. Chalets dotted themountainsides, and! snow coveredthe highest peaks that we could seefrom our bedroom balconies. Switzerland spoiled me a bit as I wasapt to ,eat a good deal? of Sw isschocolate, which is sold everyw here.One fday w as spent# skiing atDiallerets; we didn't care whattime of year it was. At times wespent the day at.^the Matterhorn11,000 feet above seajjlevel. All Ihad to {keep me warm was a thinsweater, light wool slacks, and araincoat. But just to be in the SwissAlps was a compensation.

Four days of our last stretchof the trip was spent in Rome. Ofall the cities I visited, the EternalCity has the oldest remnants of itsearly civilization. You don't necessarily have to see anything spectacular, but you sense this antiquity.The biggest thrill of this whole tripwas centered at l Castlegondolfowhere we had a general audiencewith Pope Paul VI.Now that I'm home I cherish thememories that I experienced inEurope. They will grow and deepenas the years go by. ^ Never will Iforget my i continental summer of1967.

hurst for many days to come . . .The retreat opened my mind tomany questions that I had formerly avoided/ If I hav en't yet founda solution, I have at least begunto face them .. . Not having muchcontact with formal religion beforeI came to Mercyhurst, I had formed ideas about religion on my own.The retre at made me question theseideas and even adopt new ones intheir place. I think the Concele-brated Mass on Friday fully exemplified w hat th e retr eat {accomplished. Never before did I feel soclose to.all the other girls in theChapel, united in .community inChrist . . . I think the retreat madepeople realize that retreats are"not all bad." After three other retreats here I thought this one wasreally gre at since it tf s th e firsttime I have ever derived any satisfaction from one at all . . ,No, Ididn't derive any personal satisfaction, and I don't think anything wasaccomplished. If anything, now Ihave more problems . . . I have at tended retreats for the past threeyears and found them of no worthso I did not at tend this year .. .No . I was terribly frustrate d bythe pettiness of the discussion(premarital sex has been completely talked out). My opinion istoobad for the little kid who can't useher intellect to make Christian decisions . . . Although I couldn'tat tend the retreat , I heard that /itwas very worthwhile."

Any human experience that isof worth cannot be relayed bywords. It must be felt individuallyand in a community. For the peoplewho found peace of mind at the retreat, it was worthwhile. For thosewho are now plagued with evengreater doubts, it was worthwhile.Any emotion is better than notfeeling anything at all.There were also many good sug

gestions and |criticisms of the^ re treat. It would be wonderful if thewhole student^body could participate in next year's retreat . Perhaps if some of the following comments are taken into consideration,everyone will attend. "The idea ofnot being compulsory was great. Inever before saw as many seniorsat a retreat . .However, I do thinksomething should \ be done iaboutMass though. Neither the cafeterianor the l ibrary were j good places. . . I' think th at the discussionswere too short in most cases . . .I think the conferences were tooshort, and!there could be more ofthem . . . The groups were largerthan was necessary. The consciencegroup was very overcrowded, whilethere were only about sixty or soin "People" . . . I think that thereshould be a longer afternoon sessionabout* two hours with Massabout three o'clock . . . My onlycriticism is that we should havemore retreats. I also suggest thatwe always divide into three tracts. .? . The small group discussionswere most helpful to me because Iwas able to hear the more candidand forthright opinions and ideasof others. I think more time shouldhave been devoted to group discussion . . . I have no criticismsbu t for the next retreat let 's t ry toget every day student involved inthe activities."$? It's always good to pause andlook over what we have accomplished in the days past. Many students have pleasant memories ofthis retreat and want to share thespirit they felt w ith those who couldor would not attend. This in itselfis reward enough. Many thanks toeveryone who worked on the retreatand to those who found * time tolook back and share their thoughtswith everyone.? I

weekends highlight monthA variety of fall weekends highlighted the month of October. Thefirst activity on the agenda, International Weekend, was sponsoredby the St. Thomas More Club ofGannon College, f InternationalWeekend is held twice each semester for the primary purpose ofbringing together the foreign students in the area. Gannon Collegefirst began this foreign studentprogram six years ago, but it developed so ^rapidly that the St .ThomaslMore Club couldn't handleit alone. Thus the Foundation ofIntemation Coperation (FIC) wa sestablished. Under this new program, students from foreign countries study at Gannon, Mercyhurst,and Villa Maria Colleges and resideeither in the school dormitories orwith host families in Erie.The weekend of October 13marked the opening for this schoolyear's International Weekend. Fri day night students, club members,and their dates were guests at asemi-formal dance at the SunsetInn with musical entertainmentprovided by the "Constellations."The activities resumed Saturdayafternoon with a discussion on"Maturi ty" lead by Dr. Fleming,head of the Psychology Departmentat Gannon College.

colleges try"no-grading k

Recently, the question of whether or not to offer courses on a pass-fail basis has b een under discussionin college circles. This Ja i l , MiamiUniversity offers a "cred it nocredit" program designed to encourage students to explore courseswhich they might otherwise avoidwhen maintenance of a grade-pointaverage is of primary concern. Students hoping for admission to grad uate or professional schools do notfear for their all- important grade-point averages and are, therefore,free to enjoy new disciplines, 'instructors, and ideas. At Miami,those juniors and seniors not 5 onacademic probation sign up for onecourse each tr imester on a creditno credit basis. Credit is earned forany course completed with a C orabove; no credit is given for gradeslower than C. Such courses counttoward - credit requirements forgraduation but are not figured in to grade-point averages. Duringthe two year tr ial period, registration requires the instructor 's approval. The plan is not in effectfor required courses. |

For several years, Stanford University undergraduates ? takinggraduate level courses have received pass-fail grades at the instruc-tor 's option. This fall the University expanded this system to includefreshman seminars, senior collo-quia, undergraduate special seminars and activity classes. Courses ina student's major field of study andthose taken to meet general requirements must receive lettergrades. Courses taken> on a pass-fail basis are not included in a student's grade-point average. Thecriteria for a "pass" grade are thesame as those for earning a Dor better under the I conventionalgrading system.

Haverford College has also developed an original grading systemat least for freshmen and sophomores. Although numerical gradeswil ifstill be given, they will be forinternal use only, including thestudent, his advisor, and the dean.Transcr ipts will show only a list ofcourses taken. [Officials hope thenew procedure will help students todecide on a major field and to makea smoother transition from highschool to college. The faculty feelsthat grades during the first twoyears of college should be regardedas "educational tools for communication between students and faculty," while junior and senior gradeshave additional significance as devices for evaluation of the studentby graduate and professionalschools.

Students at the University ofSanta Clara now have a new gradeto shoot for: the C+ . The gradewill carry a grade point value of2.5 points, 0.5 points higher thanthe C grade. fNo longer will it|be necessary toreceive a B to balance out a Dgrade; two C+'s will achieve thesame effect. It should also be notedthat the majority of the facultymembers were|especially in favorof this new grade because it willallow them to separate the "C"

Now theycan be given a "near B" grade andan additional half a grade point.When asked why this innovationhad not come sooner, Fr. AlexisMei, S. J., academic vice-president,answered that not until the university started on the 3/3 plan wassuch a grade needed. The fact thatthe pressure of the quarter system on students is greater thanthat of the semester system is wellknowniby the faculty and the administration.
