u DENSE PACKDr. Michael J. McQuiUen

Is there a ''dense pack" in yourfuture? There will be if theReagan administration* has itsway. What is "dense pack"?Some might think it is the namefor a new type of concentratedsix-pack; others might feel theterm applies to a gathering ofside" economists. But for thePresident and his advisors,"dense pack" refers to the latestscheme forbasing the MX missile-- that poor nuclear orphan born inthe Ford-Carter years but stillwithout a proper home.

Not "that the Reagan Ad-ministration is unw illing to pay- -and pay handsomely - - if asuitable home can be found. In-deed, anywhere from»; $30-50billion and up is available to thebuilder of an acceptable shelter.There's only one catch. It seemsthe Soviets are determined todestroy the MX and any home

that is built for it, so the Reaganpeople are looking for assurancesthat the MX's new home canescape swiftand total destruction.

The Carter Administration,after studying over a hundred dif-ferent plans, opted for a com-

plicated mobile home systemknown as the "race track." Twohundred MX's would move abouton an oval track shuttling backand forth between 23 differentshelters each. (The 9,200

warheads the Soviets would haveto expand in order to d̂estroythese 4,600 possible shelterswould "soak up" virtually theirentire nuclear ,, arsenal by nthemid-1980).* However, whenwestern ranchers and * sheepmenloudly objected t o their proposednew neighbor and a host of othercritics raised various ob jections tothis scheme, then-candidateReagan in the 1980 election cam-paign branded the Carter iplan"idiotic" (which it was).

Don't get Ronald \wrong. Hemost certainly wants the MX; hejust has to figureout where to putit. Having ruled lout the optionthat most experts saw as the mostfeasible ("race track" plus SALT

II), President Reagan has foundhimself sorely pressed to come upwith an acceptable alternative.Congresshas stated that it will notapprove funds for the MX unlessReagan comes up with a^sur-vivable home by December1.

Weinberger has pushed for givingthe MX a home inthe sky - flyingit around in a fleet of new planesable to stay aloft? for days at atime. The Air Force considers

the missiles be "closely packed"together in? underground silossomewhere in the Southwest. Theidea here is that, if the Soviets tryto attack'"dense pack", the firstexploding warheads will destroy

later incoming warheads (calledthe "fratricide effect"), thus en-suring that most of the MXs willsurvive. No matter that the ex-perts have 'noted"all manner ofways in which the Soviets couldcircumvent^ this problem (*' pin-down" strikes, laying delayed ac-tion "nuclear mines", etc.). TheMX must have a home and thishome will have to do .• Why, you might ask, do weneed the MX anyway? Simplyput, the MX is designed to destroythe homes of Soviet missiles - andwe do not have enough suchmissiles in our current arsenal tosuit the tastes of Reagan and hisadvisors. The Sov iets can threatenthe homes of our missiles so weneed the MX in order to threatenthe homes of their missiles.

IDEAIt is bad enough that the Pr

dent is obsessed with what I aider an unrealistic threat (a prise Soviet "first-strike" on land-based missiles); it is worse that he is determine

waste billions ofdollars on a stion that is both unworkable dangerous. The President's posal will prove to be a setfor arms control efforts and lead to a new escalation oarms race. jNot only sho"dense pack" be rejected, Congress should act as wecancel the entire MX program

It may be too cynical and hto argue that the Reagan ministration seems far mtroubled by and has devotedmore attention to the problemthe homeless MX than it hthe problem of homeAmericans. But then agmaybe it isn't. f

Movie Review

AmityvilleIIIs A Real Zerov by Pa trick Cannon

Before really; getting in to myreview of the latest haunted h ousehorror Him to invade Erie, I wishto recall for the reader two impor-tant and successful movie years -

11979 and 1982. Back in the sum-mer of '79 a highly publicized scisreleased entitled Star * Trek-TheMotion Picture. Being an en-thusiastic trekie, I eagerly boughta ticket for the show, only to wishlater that I hadn't bothered.Those of you who can rememberthis box office flop, need not bereminded of the writer's inep-titude at creating an interestingsci-fi drama.

Later that summer anotherhighly publicizedfilm entitled TheAmityville Horror, a \ cinematicadaptation of the novel by thesame title came to town. Withgreat personal acclaim for thenovel, I went to the theatre withhigh expectations, only'to find

that:

this film tied rDawn of theDead (something which may haveseemed impossible) for the worsthorror film of the year. Nineteenseventy-nine, which was an un-commonly^ good year forHollywood, was laced with twovery disappointing dud s.

Now, we come to the summerof '82. In June audiences saw thereturn of Captain Kirk and Mr.Spock In Star Trek II - The Wrathof Kahn. I bought a ticket earlyfor this production with bold con-fidence; feeling that Hollywoodwould learn from its past mistakesand not give the world two boringand bad Star Trek movies. Myconfidence paid off. Star Trek IIwas a successboth, commerciallyand critically. Its characters,unlike the first, were welldeveloped, and its story, with afew kinks, was interesting. Withthis pleasant surprise in mind, Ieagerly bought a ticket forAmityvilleII; hoping that, as withStar Trek, Hollywood would

learn from the past, analyze thefirst script, and not givemoviegoers two bad Amityvillemovies. This ; time, Hollywoodbetrayed my confidence.

In Amityville'II, an innocent,

unsuspecting Catholic familymoves«into a demon-possessedhouse in an upper-c lassneighborhood in Long Island.Sonny ., Montivelli, the family'soldest son, is slowly broughtunder demon control, after hear-ing mysterious deep voices on h isstereo head set. These voices com-pel. Sonny to destroy his entirefamily.

Amityville II is trying to be acinematic depiction of theNovember 1974 Montivelli familymurders (a true story) which wascommitted by a possessed and in-sane family member. What thefilm ends up being is an endlessprocession of second-hand ideasand gimmicks (and I thought

Bladerunner was the year'snumber one copycat film). Someexamples of borrowed gimmicksare: flying household debris,straight out of Poltergiest tidalwaves of blood that flow fromunderneath doors, that I recall inThe Shining; a transformation ofSonny's head late in the film,resembling a scene from TheBeast Within; and, most obviousof all, the words SAVE MEmysteriously appearing onSonny's arm, directly from a

scene in The Exorcist. Also, like(The Exorcist, the invisibledemons get their jollies from at-tacking religious objects. We seeno bleeding statues in AmityvilleII. However, we do see thedismayed look on the familypriest's face who after a nighttimevisit with the Montivelli's returnsto his car only to find that hisBibles have been reduced to

confetti.r

*&The film's only real strength isits exquisite camera direction.Thecamera is dollied ou t from withinthe mysterious dark room andleads the viewer up the stairs,symbolic of evil spirits coming outfrom Hades to haunt the innocentfamily. The camera work makesthis scene especially creepy towatch. ,5.

That same skillful camera direc-tion makes Sonny's first nighthome alone in the haunted man-sion seem like a real nightmare.The persistent high angle shotsfrom different directions give theaudience the fearful feeling of be-ing alone in a haunted house withspirits, always invisible, lookingdown from all directions.

Despite all the excellent cameradirection, Amityville II doesn'tearn my recommendation. This isnot only due to its use ofunoriginal ideas, but also itsrepelling taste of showing littlechildren, the younger Montivellis,being gunned down by .thepossessed Sonny on camera. Noteven a good camera work canmake up for such revulsion.

In my opinion Amityville II is areal Zero.

Mercyhurst AdjustsTo DID:Phone SystemThe new phone system, Direct

Inward Dialing (DID), is now 15days old, and there have been nomajor problems in the college ad-justment, according to JohnNesbit, assistant to the president."There are no major problems,just a few minor ones," saidNesbit. There is feedback in thespen with every call, just some ofthem, which causesdifficulty. Headded that GTE is checking outall possibilities to correct thisproblem. j

Nesbit said a final listing of allcollege phone numbers should beavailable by mid-October. The

John Nesbit *reason for the delayis due to per-sonnel and room changes.

The room changes in Old Mainare as follows: Helen Doughertyof payroll is now near the en-trance of Egan Hall; Bobbie Surn-merson, switchboard operator, islocated in ithe basement nearMaintenance; vMaureen Walsh,secretary to the director of per-sonnel, now occupies the old in-formation room; and the facultysecretaries can be found in the

basement near the mail room.Bobbie Summerson, swit-

chboard operator and purchasingagent, said, "The switchboard Ilike, but the actual use of thephones is difficult."

'iShe added that i basically thesystem is good, and that it cutsdown on her work load con-siderably. She also said that withthe new phones, the maintenancecosts are less.

'Hurst Grad

Conference CenterDirectorNamed

Mercyhurst College really

believes in its graduates, and toprove this is true, many alumniare hired. This is the case for thenew Conference Center Director,Conine Halperin. J?

A graduate of 1980,Halperin ispleased at the chance to be work-ing with the college.

"I love the college," she said,"It feels like coming home.1 real-ly do feel that I've always been apart of the college in one way oranother."

The move back to the 'Hurstwas a logical step;for'Halperinwhen the position in the Con-ference Center opened up.

"I t (her new position)draws on

i /

/

/

Conine Halperin

my background in my YWCAwork," where* she explained, thewas planning workshops and con-ferences. Also, sheadmits she had"a desire to be part of thecollege."

f As the Director, Halperin iscurrently working with the "GoodMorning World" Breakfasts, andplanning w orkshops and seminarsfor Spring.

While Halperin likes the at-mosphere and facilities at Mer-cyhurst, someday she would liketo see a separate facility for theConference Center. She explainedthis would, ^"better serve theneeds of the community and col-lege bo th." |

But right now, Halperin issatisfied with where she is, andsaid, "I would like to stay at thecollege. I really like it here, andI'd like to grow while I'm here,"she adds, "Not necessarily up."

Student Handbook CompiledBy Lynn Pope

In January, a student hand-book will make its first ap-pearance on the Mercyhurst cam-pus. Paul Urbanowicz, an ad-ministrative Intern,J is compilingthe handbook under the directionof John T. Nesbit, assistant to thepresident.

The handbook will contaiomacademic standards and dorm liv-ing to how to obtain a parkingsticker. Nesbit characterized thehandbook as a, "codified collec-tion of rules and regulations to

govern stud ents." The handbookwill not only pertain to residentialstudents, but to all Mercyhurststudents. i ib "It is an effort on our part tokeep the student better informedabout Mercy hurst's respon-sibilities to Mercyhurst," saidNesbit. *

At the present time, ifa studenthas a question concerning aschool policy, he has to go to aspecific person or office to obtainan answer. Even then, he or shemay not get a satisfactory answer.

The handbook, slated for

distribution around January, ismeant to give the student an im-mediate and informative answerwithout the- "runaround," ex-plained Nesbit.

Paul Urbanowicz, a 1981graduate of Mercyhurst, said thatthe work on the handbook is go-ing very well, but he stressed thefact that student input is essential.Urbanowicz stated that studentswho have questions or concernsabout the student handbookshould send him a short note inMain 210 by the end of October.

Hurst FootballEvens Record'-Last Saturday, the Mercyhurst

Laker Football team traveled toFrost burg, MD.'to take on theFrostburg State Bobcats. The con-test proved to be an offensivestruggle for both teams.

Each team could muster only 11first downs with theLaker gaining218 total yards and the Bobcatsonlyn quarterback Jobie Waldttossed a 24-yard pass to tight endKevin Theis with 12:40 remainingon the clock in the firsthalf. Thehalf ended with the scoreFrostburg 7, Mercyhurst 0.t The Hurst received the kickoff

at their own 21-yard line to openthe second session. Laker fullbackJeff Jones took the first two han-dofft handoffs and rushed for 17yards. However, on his second

carry of the half, Jones wentdown with a knee injury and wasout for the rest of the game.Jones' replacement, , freshmantransfer Darren Blackwell(brother of former Mercyhursthooper Bobby Blackwell), tookfull advantage of this opportuni-ty. Blackwell kept the 'Hurstmoving down the field and even-tually brokethrough the middleof the Bobcat defensive line andput a few moves on their back fieldenroute to a 42-yard touchdownrun. Bob Tirpak provided thePAT for Mercyhurst to tiejthecontest at 7«7,g

The Lakers had an opportunityagain, minutes later, when theyrecovered a Bobcat fumble at theFrostburg 27-yard line. But, the

Blue and Green stalled at the 12,

and Bob Tirpak came onto thefield to attempt a 29-yard fieldgoal. Tirpak, however, never gotthe opportunity to kick since thesnap J from center sailed overholder Mike Tighe's head. Tig healertly retrieved the ball andscrambled away from the Bobcatrush and threw a left-handed in-complete pass to avoid a largeloss.

The fourth quarter featured thedefensive units of both squads.There were seven punts and twointerceptions in the quarter, aswell as the fateful field goal.

With 5:49 left in the game, theLakers took a Bobcat punt andbegan a drive from their own39-yard line. After a one-yardgain by running back John M ooreand an eight-yard loss on a QbJohn Loshelder sack the Lakerswere faced w iththird down and 19yards to go. Loshelder droppedback and found wide receiver LeeBarney over the middle fo r, a27-yard gain that put the ball onFrostburg's 47-yard line. But, onwhat some consider ,a ques-tionable call by tne coaches,Loshelder dropped back to passon first down and threw aninterception. --

The Blue and Green didn't giveup though. The defense forced theBobcats to punt after three plays.Frostburg punter- Mike Hershlofted a 44-yard punt to the Laker8-yard line, so the Hurst tookpossession with 2:21 remaining in

the contest.After three consecutive at-

tempts to run up the middle, theHurst faced a fourth down and sixyards I to go from their own12-yard line.

Dave Sawtelle kicked a 30-yardpunt which was fumbled andrecovered by Frostburg at the33-yard line, w ith the clock show-ing 1:25. .•, iFrostburg quarterback Waldt,who is ranked Sth in the nation inpassing efficiency, then began tomarch his troops. Waldt com-pleted a 13-yard pass to put theball on the 20. On the next playWaldt fumbled but managed torecover his own miscue. Afteranother completed pass, this timefor 5 yards, the Lakers let loose adefensive surge and > sacked theBobcat signal caller to set thestage.

Frostburg had a fourth downand five-yard-to-go situationfrom their own 17-yard line with0:07 left in the contest. Frostburgmentor Dean Patterson sent MikeLippold onto the field to attempta 34-yard field goal.

Frostburg's snap from centerwas perfect, and their offensiveline stopped a furious Mercyhurstrush to Lippold to put the footballover the upright with gave theBobcats a 10-7 victory.

Blackwell finished the gamewith ,.127 yards on 22 carries forthe Hurst while Frostburg'squarterback Jobie Waldt finishedthe contest:with 13 completionson 24 attempts for 139 yards.

The Laker defense held theBobcat rushing attack to 39 yardsfor the game.

Mercyhurst travels again thisweek, this time to West Virginiato face Division I opponent Glen-ville State. Mercyhurst upsetGlenville last year 14-7.
