Editor speal{s out at assembly Blackburn • in surgery , Cardi views poetry and people operation 'exploratory'

Basketball Coach Tom Blackburn Blackburn was admitted to the John Ciardi, poetry editor of the

Saturday Review of Literature, spoke to the largest crowd yet assembled for this year's University Art Series.

One of the most important things a poem can do, he feels, is give plea­sure. Ciardi "hopes for a happy thought once in a while," and would like to go through life "wriggling a curly-cue tail."

Speal.ing on the techniques of po­etry, Ciardi quoted Robert Frost ... "I revel in 'em," indicating the need for the poet to love his skill and all the technical tricks that contribute to it. Again quoting Frost, Ciardi spoke of the "pleasure of taking pains" to make a good piece of work.

Ciardi recalled the fresh, original joy of poetry as it is expressed by third graders and compared this spon­taneou~ joy with the strained attitude of a high school student who has been spoiled by improper school ing. Quoting one· of h is own children's poem , he hoped th at all the students were trying to "go and get (their) candle lit," that is, look fo r and seek out knowledge.

On the natu re of hb topic, "Wh at good is a poem'!" Ciardi forwarded: "A poem i good 1.:ompany; an op­portunity to ge t out of yourse lf and le rn wh,1 t it is to be a human being. Poetry is a means of vicarious hu­m:.n c pcricncc, and as such, takes the pc1 on out of himself. A poem mean everything that comes out of th form or 10111! experience of the

A UD spokesman said Dr. T albot h,.d not released any information to the University outside of the fact that the operation wold be "of a major nature."

Blackburn, whose record is 337-131 has been at UD for 16 seasons.

Blackburn's most successful season was in 1961-62 wt:en the Flyers won the NIT in New York after five un­successful tries in the past.

In the past few years Blackburn

has had his problem at Dayton with

Big Bill Chmielewski dropping out of

school after spearheading the school's

NIT championship drive.

New Liberty Party seel{s constitution ratification

The constitution of a new politi­cal party was referred to the political affairs committee of Student Council at Tuesday night's Council meeting.

The party, the Liberty Party, sub­mitted their constitution to Council over the weekend, and Council re­ferred it to Gary Shepherd·s com­mittee for closer study. The commit­tee will return the document to Council along with recommendations

to accept or reject it , or ask for ~e­visions in it.

editorials A gooll illea -for all UD students and facu lty would be to take advantage of the opportunity the Health Ce nter is givi ng for infl ue nza vac­cinations.

\\ 1th \\ inter corning, the flu season is just around the corner. The U.S. Publ ic Hea lth Service states that over 40,000 dea ths last year were caused by influenza .

Pl ay it sa fe and get vaccinated at the Hea lth Cen ter today from I :30 to 3:30 p.m.

Beati,ig T olello -was a fi ne way fo r the foo tball team to open the 1963 season. T he victory was especially significant because of the record­break ing crowd which saw it. The team, the cheerleaders, the band all looked fi ne Poss ibly the most pleasant part of the evening was the way the fa ns stuck with the squad, even after Toledo sco red twice in the opening moments of the game.

But one question the game brought out is

Don't students rate -seats at the games? Certainly we're not against non-student Daytonians and lGA patrons attending UD games-in fact we're all for it! But why must UD students be jammed into three sec­tions at one end of the field?

We admit that we're not paying customers (although we do pay an admission charge in our University fee), but we feel that as UD students we should have decent seats for UD games.

The crux of the problem lies in the diminutive size of Baujan Field, which only seats some 13,000 spectators. The logical answer, in the long range, is to enlarge the stands (why not con­nect the north and south stands with a section of seats at the east end of the field?), but, then, that isn't going to help the student body tomorrow night.

In the meantime, why not set aside more seats for -students? Afte r all, we do attend UD!

SJ0.17 -might be an unusual prize for a contest, but we think the Writer's Club is doing a good thing by offering two such prizes. Last year the FLY ER NEWS editorialized on the apparent lack of campus authors. This, we think, is a good chance for aU the potential Hemingways at UD to prove us wrong.

We said last year that no author can become famous until he submi ts his work. Here is a good time for UD authors to cross that barrier. Since the contest is limited to UD students, there will be no insurmountable opposition.

Good luck to all you futu re authors!

Overwlielming silence - has been the UD student body's answer in the civil rights dilemma \\hich confronts our country. That this silence can con­tinue in the face of the violence which has characterized this battle in the recent months is indicative of an apathy on the part of students which is terribly wrong.

Especially disappointing is t.ije Jack of student reaction to the tragrc bombings which took place in Birmingham last weekend. The faculty had a Mass said ; the students, by themselves or through their Student Council, did nothing. We believe that the student body should do something to at least give spiritual sup­port to the movement, and to join in the prayers which are being offered for the souls of the three little girls who were killed in the bomb blast.

We suggest that the student body devote one day in which members of the student body would be constantly in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament. Such a vigil would be prayers added to the millions of others already being offered by students around the country, and would show the community that UD students recognize their moral duty.

Letters to tlie editor -submitted for publication must bear the name and signature of the author before they will be accepted . The name v.ill be withheld if requested, but the author must be knov.n.

Jn addition to proYiding continuity to Box 8, all letters must conform to the following rules:

1 ndecent language may not be u ed. Size of letters is limited to one double-spaced sheet of typing

paper. All letter mu t bear the salutation Dear Editor, or some varia­

tion thereof. Letters to a third party will not be accepted and printed as a letter to the editor without considerable editing.

Generally, decent, rational letters appearing to contain some element of interest to the campus community will be welcomed for publication.

THE UD FL YER N EW S September 27, 1 ?63

Box 8: letters to the c<litor Worth reading DEAR EDITOR,

On Wednesday, Sept 18, the I Ion ora bl e W a lt W . Rostow, ( hair man of Po li cy Pl annin g Co 11 nc il o f the State Dep,frlm ent, , po l.. e a l the Uni­veris ty of Dayton. Dr. Ro,tow's to pic was "Th i:: Ro le of ( ,ermany in the Fvolution of World Po li tics" and was a po licy speech re lca,ed by the tale Depa rtm ent o f our gove rn­me nt.

T his speech was released to the Uni ted Press Interna tiona l and the Assoc iated Press wire se rvices by the State Department at the time J)r. Rostow was spea kin g to us, or rather to those of us who a ttended The h ighl ights of h is address ap­peared in the leadin g papers across the country and were headlined in the German press.

T his type of coverage clearly demonstrates the importance of Mr. Rostow's address, yet the students fa iled to realize this. If they did, they felt it was less important than sitting on the library lawn or arou nd tables in the Flyers Hangar. T hose who remained in the Hangar cannot plead ignorance, because two an­nouncements were made in the Han­gar before the assembly.

Why have the students developed such an apathy and what has caused it? The attendance was not only poor for Dr. Rostow, but a lso for Dr. Taylor and only slightly better for Mr. Ciardi. Possibly the fault for poor attendance for Dr. Ros. tow·s address lies partially with Council, because our publicity could have been more extensive. But the chief fault does not lie here. I feel that the ch ief fault lies with the students.

This year, students are no longer required to attend the Art Series. The administration felt that the stu­dents had enough maturity to seek knowledge out of the classroom. I now doubt and am certain they also doubt the maturity of many students. Many of these spea l.. ers cost over $1,000 for speaking engagements and are foremost speakers in their field. Truly, you cou ld learn from them and would enjoy them if you atte nded .

If anyone has any suggestions on improving the attendance at assem­bl!es or the answers to any of the questions I have posed, p lease con­tact me at your conven ience.

In closing, I u rge you to attend the assembl ies in the future for your own benefi t and to avoid disgrac­ing the U niversity as it was dis­graced on Sept. 18, 1963.

Michael Sutherland President, Student Council

Roland Richard Wagner Executive Committee U niversity Party

United party D EAR ED ITOR,

I would like to remind Roland Wagner, vice-chairman of the Uni­versity Party, that the meeting of the U .P. on Sept. 13, was held in accordance with the Jaws of parlia­mentary procedure and in agreement with the rules set down by Student Council. A quorum at the meeting exceeded the number required for an election, and Mr. Lucinatelli won the party's nomination without op­position.

This meeting was open to all stu­dents of the University and was adequately publicized. Anyone who had paid his dues prior to the com­mencement of the assembly was eligible to vote. Since no one else was nominated, the University Party must assume that Mr. Lucinatelli was the unanimous choice of the group. If any objections were forth­coming, it was the duty and privilege of every member to bring them up before the general assembly, not to quibble over matters later.

As a member of the U niversity Party, Mr. Wagner is supposed to subscribe to our platform -, support our candidates, and work for the betterment of the school, the stU· dents, and for the party itse lf.

If Mr. Wagner does not like our candidate because he fee ls he is unqu alified or beca use he fee ls some­one else is more qua lified, then by all means he should vote for some· one else. But, by open opposition to our candidate, he is defea t ing the purpose of the party itself. He also has no right to pass h is views to the student body under the pretense that these views are those of the par ty itself. T he University P arty is openly supporting Robert Lucinatelli for Student Council Representative.

Jt is my political philosophy tha t a member of the Student Cou ncil is e lected to repr~ent the interests of the student body rather than any p;.rticular group. I nasm uch ~ no candidate had appeared who could truthfully say that he did represent the student body r ather than a par­ticul ar gro up, I submitted a petition :ind announced my candidacy for the vacant seat. However, in the past few days, another candidate with much che same philosophy has come forth. Besides holding a common philosophy we also maintain that:

1. The provisions of initiative re­ferendum and recall should be revised by amendments to the Constitution of the Student Council so that the student body might avail themselves of these procedures more readily.

2. The right to appeal decisions of members of the administration to their superiors be guaranteed and m ade explicit in the Stu­dent Handbook.

3. A Student Council member should publish office hours where he can be seen in an atmosphere other than the Council Office by an} student for discussion of campus prob­lems.

I \at in a car across the street anJ listen.:d to the ,,orJs a nti watched the ga1hc11ng, feeling I should join them. ashamed of my impro per dress, too casual here where even the poores t wore their bes t-oft en sui ts o( high fa,hion in a decade pas t, sh iny with wear a nd pressings on pressmgs.

.Fp1scopalian, Methodist, P resb) terian . L ut hera n. /\M E. Catholic; the religiou, men stepped forward a nd said thei r piece . The re were whites in the crowd, but it was predominantly Negro: 1he gro up on the to p step was mixed more evenly. T hey had gathered to mo urn the death of the ch ildren in Birmi ngham a nd pra) in ho pe th at this se ries o f events wou ld soon end in some sort of peace without compromise of the sort that bad caused it to reach the he ights, or depths, to which it has come. I don 't thmk I need elaborate on the previous compro mise; we should a ll know the status of the N egro in our society of the free and see that he cannot return to such a state.

.But what has caused this series of events? l\1an) people arc quick to say that it is the fault of the Negro, that he is pushing too fast. Pushing too fast for what? I won't even answer that question because it is silly. And just as seemingly silly are the actions and statements of the people who are opposed to this movement. I say seemingly silly, because some of the actions now take on the appearance of being inspired b) pyschopathic fear.

James Baldwin, in one of his essays, claims that the reason the whites are so violently opposed to giving equality to the Negro is that it will remove a ready-made scapegoat from our society, a scapegoat that they can pin their nameless, formless fears on. It would seem to be so when the sort of thing that occured in Birmingham begins to happen.

As l see it, only a very sick man could kill children, a very sick man, or one driven by unreasoning fear. Fear of what, you ma) ask?

Too many people have been taught to accept the status quo that exists in many parts of our country today. There is the fear of something new, something they cannot, because of their training, see a happy ending to. Children have been taught to hate to a degree that it seems almost a crime to them to do otherwise or be asked to.

So where is the answer? I don·t know, unless it lies with this genera­tion who will be running the country in not too many years, running it where it counts, in the states and communities. I'm going to be challenged on this point, but I believe that this generation is very aware of its own ind1v1duahty and so should be aware of the same in all other men. There arc signs that this is so. I hope so, because as Caesar said. divide and conquer

But, until there is no need for a gathering such ~ I saw, until such ~alhcrinJ.:\ are more equally white and black, until equality is not measured Ill degree of pigment, we're in danger from ourselves.

I feel that we must find leader­ship which can establish this needed tradition. The emergence of a cus­tom which will enable all of us to benefit from these lecturers.

Ideas in ou1· University

Is Thomism enough for us? By STEVE BICKHAM

This article marks the beginning of a feature series on ideas in our uni versity. Ideas, thoughts, are the pulse beat of any intellectual in­stitution, and it is by these, our in­tellectual acts, that we should wish to be judged Our college years shculd be ones of intellectual fervor, d:scovery, and honest questioning, ali of which cannot be answered by dcgma as dogma or doctrine con­si<lered precisely as doctrine, but only by truth as it is true. This ser­ies may bore some, but it is hoped it will serve as a continuous indict­r.1ent of those who claim the intel­lectual atmosphere of our campus is anything less than first rate.

On Monday, Sept. 23, at the Phil­osophy Club lecture, Dr. Eulalio Baltazar of the philosophy depart­ment delivered a talk which is most worthy of being the subject for the first article of this series. Dr. Bal­tazar's speech was a serious indict­ment of Thomism, charging this phil­osophy with being irreconcilably out of step with the times. "Our student," said Dr. Baltazaar, "is not a true scientist in the right sense of the word, if he believes that all truth, or sufficient trnth is contained in our philosophy and theology." He stated further, "The worst maxim being taught today in philosophy is that Thomism has all the answers and all we need to do is write foot­notes."

Briefly summed up, Dr. Baltazar's argument is that Thomism was per­fectly good and acceptable for the world of the past, the world of Ari­stot le, St. T homas Aquinas, and Newton, which he calls the world or cnmmon ~ense. But now our world ha, c hanged; it has changed . o radically it i~ not a world of com­mon sense. fa the geometry of our present world-non Euclidean geo­met ry-the shortest distance between two points is a curved line; the dif­fere nce between traditional concepts of like and non-like have been shak­en the the biologist; at the present day pure matter may be changed

to pure energy. Our world has chang­ed so radically that the philosophy of the past is completely dated and antiquated. On our world the earth revolves around the sun ; in St. Thomas's world angels rode the opt­er spheres of creation and played their harps to keep the universe in order.

To correspond with our present view of reality, Dr. Baltaar believes, we must look at it not as a substance, some thing existing and evolving, but as an actu al process. For Balta­zar and followers of Teilhard de

DR. BALTAZAR

Chardin, reality is an activity, an evolution , a process. Looking at the universe in this light, man becomes not a ··rational animal," but "a be­ing oriented towards the ultimate good." God, based on a new inter­pretation of the word Yahweh, be­comes "He who will always be with us;' rather than "He who is." Says Baltazar, 'The Trinity itself is an eternal procession, and our knowl­edge of process is analogical to God who is Process."

Of course, a speech differing so much from the general Phi losophical trend at UD did not receive 100 per cent approval. Comments varied from straight out praise to definite displeasure.

Brother Jerome Curda, S.M., a senior in English, said, '·the impact

of the lecture for me was the fact that man still seeks truth, and the truth of one generation may not have the same aspect for a later generation." Brother Curda felt this le<.ture was more a germinal exposi­tion of a philosophy of proce;s than an attack on Thomism.

Dave Schweickart , senior math major, said "I was very much im­pressed if nol a bit stunned. I have nol decided personally whether I feel Dr. Baltazar right or wrong, but I am very excited that the ques­tion is being raised. It is a question of great significance not only for our school but all Catho lic schools with a philosophy program such as ours." Schweickart also invited those in­terested in hearing the other side of the story to hear Father Dombro speak at a future Philosophy Club lc.:ture.

Hank Prince, a senior math ,na­jor, mentioned, ··some people tend to downgrade Thomism because it developed in a medieval society. Modern society is not satisfied with old theories, but searches for some­thing new. Too often the past is shunned . Dr. Baltazar, in my opin­ion, not only showed the necessity of consideration for past thought, such as Thomism, but also for a continual re-evaluation of philoso­phy in light of modern develop­ment."'

Rose Mary Sudeen, sophomore in philosophy, asserted, ··1 feel that Dr. Baltazar first and foremost did not state the position or give an accurate interpertation of Thomism. One ex­ample of such a mistatement was his comment that Thomism tends to equate God with substance. I also feel that, rather than explicitly point­ing out the weakness of T homism, he accented the advantages of de Chardin's philosophy which was not supposed to be the purpose of the le<.ture."

What Dr. Baltazar said may not necessarily be true, and then again it may necessarily be true; bu t it was a thought and it did happen on campus.

Since we attend a ( atholic univcrbity, it's on ly natur:i l that we be thoroughl y indoctrinated wi th ideas ,,bou t the individu:tl '~ CJblig;, ti<m* to society. Bul have we ever , topped to think abou t ~Jdcly'11 debt to the individual? Whal docs society owe to you :,nd you and you and m e'/

Even if we've dreamt through all our theolol!y and phll0'><1phy < la\-.e , we still have at least a vague notion of the fact that thtre are mon, people in the social order than in any given individual man; thus we reaY,n, and rightly so, that a single person is, so to speak, "outvoted" by the mas~, wl:enever a conflict of interest arises,

Bul this docs nol mean thal the masses are more important than the individual- quite the contra ry, for society is nothing but the ~u m total of persons Jiving at a given moment. Jn other words, society is comprised of Mike and Bill an<l Mary and Sue and all the rest of the inhabitants of the earth at this moment This point is of prime importance--even within society, all men a re individuals. For although men all contribute in wme way to society, society may never take away a person's individuality. In fact, society's only justification for ex i,,ance is the betterment of the individuals comprising it.

For the sake of illustration, let's look at a unit wi th in society and discuss its nature. Let"s make this uni t a class in freshman biology. In the class we find an instructor and, say, 40 pupils. Now we call th is gathering a class; we think of it as a unit. Bul each person with in the class knows himself to be an individual.

Each person in the room is there for his own personal reason- no one is there just to be a member of a social unit. John might be there because he wants to become a biochemist; Sue because she wants to be a child psychologist and freshman biology is prerequisite to many of her other courses; Jim because he wants to satisfy a school requirement and make his dean stop pestering him; and Tom because he wants his B.A. so he can go into business and bilk the lower-education classes. The instructor might be there because he finds teaching to be a way to gain community prestige or to repay God for his education. In other words every member of every social unit is in that unit in order to fulfill a personal ambition or need .

It is around this last point that societ) ·s debt to the individual revolves. The University of Dayton is a social unit; we are here because we want to satisfy certain desires and UD is a means to an end. The moment UD ceases to serve as an aid to the development of the individual then UD has no justifice.tion at all to continue existing.

This, then, is the salient poi11t: Society a11d socio/ units exist for the i11di­vid11al, not the individual for society.

Being realistic, however, we cannot say that our reasons for belonging to a social unit are wholly selfi,h. Quite the contrary, we know that we have an obligation to help others attain their goals in life and that others owe us the same. Thus, we willingly join into social contacts and take part in the life of society. Sometimes, in fact, we join social bodies just for the sake of satisfying one of our most basic needs- the urge to be with people.

Being realistic once again, we must admit that each person in each group has more than one reason for belonging to the group. A man might for example, go to U D because it's a good engineering school, because the tuition is not an obstacle, and because the coeds are cute.

T here we have the nature of society and the individual in a very simplified manner. Man joins soical group in order to fulfill his own needs; social groups lose their justification for existence when they stop helping the individual.

.I .. ~

A BLEND of East and West a re chosen by Dr. Panakal.

has a unique onc-"I just loved the name 'Dayton'!"

Dr. Panakal, a native of Kerala, South India, is a new addition to UD's English Department. She has been in the United States since 1956, when she arrived on a graduate level exchange program. Dr. Panakal received her masters degree at Mar­quette University, Mass., and her Ph.D. at Loyola of Chicago.

When asked her impressions of the students, Dr. Panakal noted that they are receptive, serious about their studies, and concerned with personal improvement. "The students on cam­pus strike me as friendly and help­ful, but I am sad because autumn will soon be here, and the beautiful campus will soon be bare and cold," she remarked.

Dr. Panakal is easily noticed on campus attired in her colored sairis. She believes it is good for the stu­dents to be exposeci to life on an in­ternational basis; she would like ot acquaint the students with the cus­toms and dress of other countries. '"Besides," she admitted, "they're much more comfortable than confin­ing Western dress."

Dr. Panakal explained that the Indian sari is a symbol of adulthood

and maturity. It is the custom to

don a sari only when one is entering

college, or joining a profession; the

younger girls at home wear simple

frocks or skirts and blouses.

At the end of the spring session,

Dr. Panakal plans a vacation to her

homeland, which she is looking for­

ward to seeing again. She would like

to spend two months in India and

the remaining month in Europe.

Rock-and-roll in Hangar

Interviews give opinions Rock-and-roll has altered the

11:30 a.m. to 1:2:30 p.m. Hangar lunch hour atmosphere.

This noticeable deviation from the usual program of FM semi-classical and popular music has become a reality through the promotion of the junior class. The hour was originally planned to be used for pep music for the football games and for special records in coordination with campus activities. However, as a re­sult of requests, the time has become a regular part of the musical pro­gram.

According to junior class president Joe Farrell, "It is all a part of a project to put more college life on campus. We wanted the time for pep music for the games and then students started making requests. However, I do not think that the time will ever be longer than an hour. Also, this project coincides with the junior class-sponsored hoot­enannies which will begin in late October and which will be held in the Hangar every Friday at 4 p.m."

Initiation of the music has prompted both pro and con reactions from members of the student body.

Jim Artino (Ed-3); "For the most part, I like the music usually played in the Hangar. However, I do prefer more up-to-date music."

Larraine Purcell (A&S-3) stated, '"I do not like it because it is spoiling the nice atmosphere. You used to be able to go into the Hangar and sit down and have a nice conversa­tion, but all of a sudden, the noise in the background makes it impos­sible. Rock-and-roll disc jockeys be­long on the radio where they can be turned off.''

Rita Anderson (A&S-2) thinks "It is a good idea. I like to have a var­iety of music and I like the idea of popular and folk music."

"It's just that I think it is juvenile," says Paul Roderer (A&S-4). "There

should be more of an intellectual and cultural atmosphere at a Univer­sity.Rock-and-roll is for high school."

And adding a vote for the pro side, Pat Froehly (Bus-1) stated; "I like it. It relaxes my mind."

THE DEAN YOU SAVE J.\,IAY BE YOUR OWN

Colleges are complicated and bewildering places, filled with complicated and bewildering people. Today let us examine one of the most complicated and bewildering-yet fetching and lovable-of all campus figures. I refer, of course, to the dean of students.

Policeman and confessor, shepherd and seer, warden and oracle, proconsul and pal-the dean of students is all of these. How, then, can we understand him? Well sir, perhaps the best way is to take an average day in the life of an average dean. Here, for example, is what happened last Thursday to Dean Killjoy N. Damper of the Duluth College of Belles Lcttrcs and Pemmican.

At 6 a.m. he woke, dressed, lit a Marlboro, and went up on the roof of his house to remove the statue of the Founder which had been placed there during the night by hig;h­spirited undergraduates.

Co1neback with strong effort

UD victo1~ious in season debut By DA VE HINES, FN Sports Writer This proved to be the turning point

of the game as Bronzi sped 14 yards for the TD to put the Flyers ahead for the first time in the game.

Agreed, everyone knew the new Fighting Flyers were going to be good, but who would go so far out on a limb as to predict that they could spot Toledo two touchdowns and still win 22-19?. And yet, Saturday night that is precisely what they did. Toledo opened up with a 89-yard kickoff return by Jim Gray and followed with another score after recovering Jim Overman's fumble on UD's

It appeared that the Flyers had the game well in hand when Toledo's speedy halfback. Jim Gray, took Bitsko's punt on the two and ran it down the sidelines for his second touchdown of the night. Dayton took the kickoof and drove once more into Toledo territory but were stop­per around the 30-yard line. Toledo then marched from midway in their own territory down to scoring posi­tion when Ciccolell a ended the threat with an interception.

On their first pl ay from scrim­mage Dayton definitely did not look like they had conceded the game. Bitsko opened the drive with a 16-yard blast: LaBeau followed with another 16-yarder three plays later. Chuck McElligott and Jim Overman kept Dayton·s momentum up until Overman took the ball over from the four-yard line to climax the 69-yard drive. No further scoring oc­curred until the second half. Turning point of game

The second half opened with Day­ton drawing a 15-yard penalty for delaying the start of the half. Re­ceiving the second ha lf kickoff, UD moved from their 20-yard line and went the eighty yards in 16 downs.

Key plays in this drive were Mc­

E lligott's 28-yard run, and runs of

12 and nine yards by quarterback

Tom LaBeau. Rich Winkler made

good his second point-after-touch­

down. T he Flyers then tried an on­

side kick that worked to perfection.

T he Toledo lineman couldn't fi nd

the ball and Mike Ciccolella dove on

Outstanding players

Top ground gainer for the Flyers

was Chuck McElligotl with 72 yards

for a 5.5 average. He was followed

closely by Tom LaBeau with 70

yards. Defensive stalwa rts were Bit­

sko and Ciccolella with 16 and I 0

tackles respectively. Also outstand­

ing was Erwin Will who blocked a

point-after-touchdown attempt and

played impressive offensive ball at

his right tackle position. Coach Ank­

ney said of the game, "I was proud

of our comeback. We were too fired

up, I guess, at the start. Offensively,

vie were great. Tom Laeeau showed

the way at quarterback. He had

about 23 other fi ne boys helping him."

Odds and e nds------ --­

Successful debut . • • ----------- By BOB FINGERHUT, FN Sports Editor

Until last week, the big question was whether Pete Ankney and h is squad of Fighting Flyers could fulfill the hopes of thousaAds of UD football fans.

After last Saturday"s contest, 16,000 plus fan~ went ho'lle with the realization of what they had hoped for came true. They saw the home­town gridmen give Toledo a 13 point advantage and then come roaring back for a 22-19 opening season victory. This of course was the first season debut that the Flyers have won since 1959 when they defeated the university of Richmond by a close margin of 6-3. Later on in the season the Flyers went on to beat Miami 13-0. This was the last time a Dayton grid squad beat a Mid-American team until last Sturday·s victory over Toledo.

According to Ankney, the first game of the season is always the most important for any team. However, it was possibly even more important to his squad . Psychologically it was just what this team needed. especially since a large percentage of the team has experienced nothing but defeats in the past.

Tomorrow LD faces a much tougher team in Ohio U. "They're well• coached", says Ankney." T hey have a larger coaching staff than we have and that loss to Buffalo Saturday should have shaken them pretty badly. It will give them even more incentive for us. By all logical deductions, Ohio U has to be heavi ly favored.

"However our staff and football team learned something Saturday. Among other things. we learned that if you have courage and spirit you'll play better ball when the odds are against you. Consequently we are anx­iously awaiting this Saturday night's game and our second vic tory:·

A statement of this type is typical of Ankney's approach to the UD football situation since he took over last December. He shows that he knows the obstacles. but is not giving an inch to anyone.

One of his first moves after taking over as head grid mento r, was to rename the Flyer footba ll team the "Fighting Flyers." And "Fighting" they were last weekend.

Room for spirit . . . As indicated by the attendance of the student body at both the kickoff

rally a nd the game, the spirit for this year's team is excellent. Although there were a few moans after Toledo hit the scoreboard so early in the game, the students (and the team) did not give up. If anything, the cheers seemed louder.

The only p roblem was the cramped space, and as a result, students were spread out all over the fie ld. Now we rea lize that when a food concern hands out 10.000 general admissio n tickets (of which more than half were collected) that some seats must be saved. But who should get the seats ... the people who received the tickets for pract ica lly nothing ... or the student body.

The students were alloted three sections on the south side of the field-­seating approximately 1,300, and one-quarter of the east end-zone bleachers -seating 500 students. In other words, there was room for 1,800 students out of a total enrollment of 4,700.

We hope that something can be done to remedy the situation and at least have a few more sea ts for the growing student body.

Student Counc il pla ns to try and secure the entire set of bleachers in the east end zone for UD students. According to Mike Sutherland, SC president, 'Tm in complete agreement with the student body. Plam _for securing more student seats will be put in the form of a resolution in time for next week's meeting and we will be able to work from there."

A few tidbits • • • Tony Catenese, member of SC and chairman of Council's Athletic ~om­

any interest in the minor sports such as: tennis, ping pong, bridge, bad· minton, volleyball , and a few more. If there is a definite interest shown, intramural competition will be initiated. . edit

IM football off to fast start a,t West Ca11ipus

Herb Dintaman\ intramural pro­gram got off to a fast start last week. especially in the Uni\'crsity Hall League. A few on West Cam­pus have as man; as five decisions already This is hecausc the sched­ule was centered mainly on the UH League last week . By the end of this ,,eek. hm, e"er. the action in all four leagues should be well under way.

To prevent ties, Mr Dintaman has developed a unique play-off tech­nique. If at the end of regulation play, the score is tied, each team gets the ba ll on its own twenty yard line. Each gets four downs to move the ball. The winning team is the one which picks up the most yard­age in its four plays.

On opening night, last Wednesday, two games were decided in this man­ner. The Turf Grinders, captained by Skip Harkness, were tied with Ed More's Eagles 6-6 at the end of the regular game. But in the overtime the Grinders- connected on a 60 yard scoring play and wa lked away with a 12-6 victory.

The Giants, led by Roger Pryor, and Fred Millman·s Business team played to a scoreless deadlock for four quarters. The Giants got the ball fi rst, and lost five yards in four plays. Business, however, in their four downs lost 12 yards, and the Giants were awarded the 6-0 verdict.

In other games on Sept. 18, the Sooners of Skip Voegeli muzzled the Bulldogs of Dave Urbany, 21-0; the

Spartans captained by Tom Standers,

shutout Mike T eBoc's Calvert Re­serves 8-0; and Joe Schuerger's Chargers harpooned the Wha les of Dennis McCanhey, 12-2.

On Friday, the Giants were again involved m an overtime tilt, th is time wh ipping the Sooners 6-0. The Bulldogs nipped the Ca lvert Re­serves,, 2-9, while the Spartans were taming John Sienko's Wi ld Cats, 13-0. The Turf Grinders then trampled the Engineers o f Jim Bracey 8-2, and the C hargers grounded the Ea­gles, 6-0.

Saturday saw the Giants gain a come-from-behind victory over the Calvert Reserves 8-6, on a fourth quarter T D bomb from quarterback Phil Fi t zSimmo n s to halfback George Sa loom . The Sooners re­b0unded from Friday's defeat with a 12-0 tri umph over the Whales. The Bulldogs trimmed the Wild Cats 8-2, and the Chargers squaked by the Eagles 6-0, in overtime.

Sunday afternoon saw the first showdown of the early season. The G iants and the Spartans, both with 4-0 records after each was handed a forfeit victory, met in a head-on clash to determine the league leader. T he game was scoreless until the fina l play when Spartan linebacker Lou Colangelo na iled FitzSimmons in his own end zone, and the Spar­tans took a hard earned 2-0 decision to remain undefeated and unscored upon. In other games, the Sooners scored over the Turf Grinders 6-0, and the Whales squashed the Calvert Reserves, 8-2.

Students need more seats Question: What did you think of the school spirit displayed a t

Saturday's game and do you think any improvements is necessary in the student seating arrangements in Baujan Field?

Pat Smith, fr~bman, Arts: "I thought the spirit was great but that the entire ·student body should be seated together, regardless of the sec­tion of the field".

Mary E llen Kehoe, junior, Edu­cation: "I thought there was great individual student spirit shown at the game and I thought that this spirit spread to the entire student body. I also think that the students should be allowed to sit together as a group."

Gerry Dempsey, junior, Business: ' 'I've always felt that we could have one of the most spirited student bodies in the country if we had a winning team and this year I think coach Ankney has found the combi­nation . As for the seating arrange­ment I don ·t think it really matter if all the students actively upport the team ,"

Roger Vernier, junior, Business: " It was the greatest show of school spirit I have ever seen. I know the team appreciates this spirit. I hope it will continue throughout the sea­son. Concerning the seating arrange. ment-get there early!"

Bob Radice, freshman, Engineer• ing: "The spirit I saw Saturday was overwhelming. As for the seating a rrangement, it could be better but I see no practical means of remedy­ing the situation."

Voting set for Oct. 1 & 2; three candidates i11 1·ace

The junior class will exercise its privilege of voting and elect either Tim Carroll, Bob Lucinatelli or John Guinta to the Student Council post vacated by Jim DcFeo.

Majoring in business management, Tim Carroll is running on an inde­pendent ticket. A member of the Cleveland Club and Chi Sigma Alpha, Carroll feels that the stu­dents of the junior class need a mediator to represent their interests before Council and to let the stu­dents 1eel that they have a voice in the decisions made by Council.

He feels that Council should pay more attention to the students they represent, and that if elected, he would invite suggestions and ideas on any problems that may arise, such as parking and seating for foot­ball games.

When asked why he was cam­paigning, Carroll replied that a small handful has been doing all the work, and that he would try to arouse more initiative in the class as a whole. If !hr students get more voice in the government, they will "par­ticipate more in class functions, in basketball, football, Student Coun­cil."

Carroll stn;sscd the point that all the juniors should vote. "They owe it to themselves to pick the repre­sentatives who will lead them."

From Somerset, New York, Bob Lucinatelli is being supported by the University Party, whose object is to make the students more aware of campus politics. An Engli,h major, Lucinatelli has a 3.8 cumula­tive point average. He has had pre­vious experience as chairman of Student Council Athletic Committee, class president in his freshman and sophomore years, and as a member of the Student Council Social Com-

mittec. Lucinatelli stated that he "as

proud to be running on the Univcr. sity Party ticket, for the Party is dedicated to more effective com­munication between the individual students and their government. As a member of the Student Council, he stated that he would be dedicated to improvement of stuednt-govern· ment relations by representing the student in any and all phases of student life. He called upon his past experience on Council and pledged to continue his work to represent the individual student. '"I am always avai lable to discuss with any stu­dent , any problem that may con­front you regarding campus mat­ters," Lucinatelli said, speaking to the students as a whole.

Special meetings will be held at regular intervals to inform the stu­dents of the workings of Council. At these meetings, he will get to know what the students actually want. He stressed the fact that "I am eager lo continue my work of the past two years in behalf of you, the individual student, and in behalf of the University itself."

John Guinta, majoring in electrical engineering from Pittsburgh, Pa ., is running independently. He is a mem. ber of the Keystone Club, NSPE, AIEE, and has a cumulative point average of 3.5. Guinta wants to em­phasize the fact that he is running independently, completely free from all social and political groups.

As a member of Student Council, he would see that the provisions of referendum and recall as now stated in the Constitution be revised in order that the student body may more readily avail themselves of these privileges. He also feels that the rights of a student to appeal a

AZZ men are created equal By MICHAEL KENNEDY

This simple phrase inspired our ancestors to dedicate their property, their lives, and their sacred honor in the fight for freedom and liberty. With these words, the peo,le of the American colonies displayed their respect for humanity, freedom, and democracy. They declared their independence from the subjugation of a foreign nation. A new nation was born wherein all men could "secure the blessings of liberty" to themselves and their posterity.

We honor those brave Americans who fought and died in all our wars in the defense of the Constitution, our country, and the rights of men. Yes, ~e honor those men, but they will have died in vain as long as any of the nghts that they fought for are denied any American citizen.

But the~e ~re American citizens who today are destroying human dignity, the ConshtuhoJJ, and our countl") by denying to other citizens because of their color, God-given rights, and rights guaranteed in the Co;stitution.

When some people attempt to deny rights to citizens of the United States because of race, creed, or color, they arc denying the Constitution of the United States. They are denying the Constitution and the human dignities that our ancestors, our fathers, our brothers, and even we ourselves fought to protect. They are denying the rights of all citiens of the United States.

We cannot excuse their actions by saying that the Negroes, or Jews or Chinese are minority groups and that, as such, their rights should be sec~nd to ~he rights o_f the majority. There is no true majority. Every person in the United States 1s a member of a minority group. If we are not in the minority because of our color, we are in a minority because of our religion or because of our ancestor's nationality, or because of our political views o~ whom we vote for in elections.

If we all~w someone ~o ~cprive another of God-given rights and righ ts guar~nteed m the Conslltullon because of the color of his skin, we are operung the way for those people to deny us our rights because of our religion, our nationality, or our politics. The only majority rule that is acceptable to all people who believe in the freedom and democracy of the American Constitution is that of a majority of people gathered together in defense of those rights and liberties for all people.

With the 'I\Ords "all men are created equal", our forefathers displayed their respect for humanity, freedom, and democracy. With our adherence to the principles of these words and our defense of the rights that are based on them, w·e, the people of the United States today, can show our respect for humanity, freedom, and democracy.

CCU throws Mexican fiesta for workers

Mexican migrant workers were treated to a fiesta by the Christian Careers Unlimited (CCU) club and Sacred Heart parish in New Carlisle.

Thirteen members of the club, in­cluding five Spanish-seaking mem­bers, went on the field trip last Sun­day.
