Committee Considers Changes

City ~Reviews Election Reform By BILL BACK

Progress toward election reform in Newark was initiated last Thursday night as the City Council's Election Reform Committee opened its first in a series of public meetings.

Dr. Robert D. Varrin, chairman of the committee and councilman for the third district, opened the two-hour forum, summarizing the 'goals of the program: "to come up with a recommendation by June 1 on election reform, both of our city charter, and any specific ordinances in our code pertaining to elections."

The other two committee members are William A. Redd, Jr. (Councilman, District 5), and Olan R. Thomas (Councilman, District 6).

TESTIMONY Some 50 persons,

representing various segments of Newark's population, crowded into the small meeting room in the city's police gymnasium to listen to testimony from municipal officials, as well as from several members of the audience.

City Solicitor Peter Green reviewed guidelines for legal approaches to election reform. He commented, "As a result of decisions recently by the Supreme Court with regard to residence requirements, there is an area in our charter that is going to need revision ..... referring to

the idea that a person has to be a resident in the city for one year, and in the district for three months for him to be eligible to become a

. qualified voter."

RESIDENCY The maximum residency

requirement now permitted by the courts before a person can register to vote is 30 days. Students, to be eligible to vote here, must intend to make Newark their home for an "indefinite" period, according to Green.

Much of the criticism of the city's election Jaws centered around questions pertaining to registration. Dave Bartholomew, of the Newark Voters' Coalition, criticized the Election Board's policies on residence, saying the expressed intent "to reside in a community 'indefinitely' actually disenfranchises a number of people who honestly can say that they intend to Jive in the city for the foreseeable future, .... but not imply that they intend to be there indefinitely."

CRITERIA At one point, Councilman

Redd ' asked Green if there exists any standardized criteria for residence. "There is no absolute standard guide," Green said. "It's a matter of intent."

George Wolkind, the Coalition's write-in candidate for mayor in the March

election, chided the committee, noting, "Mostly what's come across ... is legal mumbo-jumbo that is very difficult to understand; it's

Perspective:

Friday's Peace By JIM DOUGHERTY

Someone was shouting into a bullhorn on the mall. Balloons were being sold in front of the Student Center. In back of me, a girl was saying how she had hid a boy in her dormitory room.

"Come on! what's the matter with you people! ,"his face getting red, he continued as someone with a sign said that he was doing a good job. "You're all apathetic," he roared into the bullhorn.

I walked by a table with balloons tied to it, and by people who were sunning themselves. "Why don't you buy a balloon? We're raising money for a sorority."

Earlier, three girls found they had nothing more to talk about. The man with the bullhorn was shouting at them. At me.

I walked through faces staring into mine, as a girl asked me to buy a balloon, as a speaker told me to "become involved."

Later, I sat in a classroom. The teacher chuckled when he said he had a hard time getting by the demonstration to class.

Some shouted, some chuckled, and a war went on.

Soon, hundreds of thousands, maybe more, would be marching in New York, in Los Angeles, in England, New Zealand, France, and all over the world.

And maybe the girl and her boyfriend would be laughing at how easy it was to get him intq her dorm. Balloons would lose air, sag, and then shrivel up.

In a classroom, on a sunny Friday afternoon, the lawn machines outside were thrashing, and then, there was nothing to say.

very vague, it's not specific. "It seems to me the issue

is whether students are going to be allowed to register, and the city has taken the position that, by and large, most of them are not going to be allowed."

To run for office in Newark a candidate must be a registered voter, and must file a petition with 10 signatures at least 29 days before the election.

"Any qualified voter can be a candidate for councilmatic office," said Varrin, but the nominee for mayor must also be a property owner in the city, although it is expected that the ownership clause may soon be dropped as a requirement.

On the question of write-in candidates Green reversed his opinion of several weeks ago to favor a change in the city charter allowing write-ins; "My opinion was based on court decisions which indicated that...there is no ahsolute constitutional right for write-ins. I think certainly this committee should consider expressly providing for write-ins, as the state now does."

Green further suggested increasing the Election Board from its present three to seven members to provide a better cross-section of the people. reducing the residency requirements for mayor from two years to one, and omitting the requirement for the mayor or his spouse to be a property owner in the city 0

Frances Beer, in representing the Newark League of Women Voters, endorsed, for the most part, Green's proposals, and added other recommendations in the League's 10-point proposal for election reform.

These include an extension of polling times from seven to nine o'clock because,. as Beer explained, "Many people don't vote because they don't get to the polling place by seven," along with a three-year mayoral term to develop "more continuity" in city government and to effect an alternation in the concurrent elections of the mayor and various councilmen.

Wolkind also called for reform, encouraging partisan representation in city elections (currently, Newark politics are officially non-partisan). "The issues seem to be obscured," he said, "People should be able to run with a party affiliation or as an individual."

The committee decided to schedule its second meeting for this Thursday, 7:30p.m. in the Police Station gymnasium on E. Main St.

behind dormitories. Their findings were presented to housing authorities at that time. To date there has been no additional construction of bike racks.

The lack of proper places to secure bicycles has created numerous violations of housing codes. The director of housing and food service after investigation of residence halls at the beginning of the spring semester reported many instances of illegal parking of bikes within the dormitories. The cause of this illegal parking, as in the case of Smyth Hall, was the lack of parking facilities outside the dorm . At this time, in Smyth there are eleven cement parking blocks and 62 bicycles. Bikes are parked in dorm rooms, storage rooms, and gamerooms.

One student complained, -.. I don't want to just leave my bicycle up against the building at night. There is nothing to lock it to. I'm not allowed to keep it in my room, so where can I put it to keep it from being stolen?"

Within the entire South Complex there are not enough bike racks to accommodate even one-quarter of the bicycles owned by students.

Housing authorities gave varied answers when questioned about the problems. Last semester when it was brought to their attention, it . was reported that the cold weather prevented the correct settling of the cement. Build-up of work for workmen · was another reason for the delay.

North-South campus social chairmen are now questioning

why construction has not been started. "The university has had almost five months to take action upon our proposal. With the advent of warmer weather, I can see no reason why they cannot build some new racks. Many of their violations would be relieved if they would only build more. The university tells students that they cannot park them within the dormitory, yet they don't provide space outside for them to park. It doesn't make sense," commented one chairman.

A Smyth resident reacted to the situation by stating, "There are over 200 girls living in Smyth and at least half of them own bicycles. How can we be expected to cram them into eleven racks?"

Election of president, vice president, secretary, and treasurer of the Colleget Council in the College of Business and Economics will be held on Wednesday.

Council elections will be held tomorrow. Voting will be held outside the Department offices. There will be 12 members, one from each class in each department. This year's seniors will not vote.

Hypocrisy? Last Saturday a luncheon party was held in the lobby of Smith

Hall to honor Provost John W. Shirley, who will leave the university in June. We do not wish to take this-space to comment in any way on Dr. Shirley personally or the fact that a party was held in his honor.

What we do wish to point out and condemn is the blatant hypocrisy of a university administration that sees fft to hold entertainment functions in a university classroom building and serve alcoholic beverages (sherry), while at the same time turning a deaf ear to repeated student requests for action on the creation of a rathskellar (bar and coffeehouse) on campus. There are pitifully few places on campus where students can gather for a good time, and those that exist are limited both in capacity and hours of operation.

The university claims that they are studying the matter but it do{:sn't take much intelligence to see that progress so far has been virtually nil, especially considering the relatively small amount of effort and expense that would be involved in the creation of a rathskellar. One wonders if the administration would be as slow to act if the rathskellar was primarly directed towards administrators and or faculty. But then, they already have their Blue and Gold Club.

Meal Ticket Policy To The Editor:

Recently, a friend of mine went home for the weekend and offered me the use of a meal ticket. I am a "commuter" and ... being used to fending for myself in a room in Newark ... usually jump at the chance to eat someone else's cooking (even the dining hall's). So, I · accepted the invitation and psyched my stomach up into getting prepared to receive nGurishment other than a bologna-and-cheese sandwich. ·

My stomach and I were quite disappointed, though, when we were turned away at the door by an overzealous "number-checker." Instead of just reading the number, as is usually the case, he seized my. cards from my hand and tried to match the names.

This all leads me to ask a question of

Roth Rep I ies To The Editor:

Thank you very much for your letter of March 20, 1972, along with the editorial and the petitions which you enclosed dealing with the question of amnesty for draft evaders.

I appreciate hearing from you on this matter and of course recognize the strong interest that many people have in this question.

Accordingly, have included a question on amnesty in my spring questionnaire, which will be distributed to about 260,000 Delawareans ~metime within the next few weeks.

Again, may I thank you for letting me have your expression of opinion on this issue.

the dining hall admission policy: What difference does it makes who uses a meal ticket?

My friend, in purchasing a seven-day ticket, paid for a year's food in advance and was charged as though every single meal would be eaten in the dining hall. The point is the food was paid for I d ' ' , on t, coJ~sume · anymore than the 'average person anyhow, and if someone doesn't 111ind feeding me on a ticket he -paid-for then who is any the worse for it?

If it is a matter of being fair to those who purchase meal tickets, then for every meal not eaten in the dining hall, the university should refund the money to the meal ticket holder.

Or perhaps the policy is to ensure that meal tickets are not stolen, or used by the holder and then passed on to a friend afterwards.

On the second part, the checking off of numbers on a sheet precludes two people using the same ticket for the same meal. On the first part, a meal ticket thief would be readily apprehended once the card's owner notified the door checker of the missing card.

Perhaps, I've left a few points out in my argument, but it all boils down to this: when you're not going to use a meal ticket, what's wrong with occasionally feeding a friend? You don't feel hurt, the university is not out any more food than usual, and .. the friend's stomach is sated.

Art Student Is Lucky To The Editor:

As an art student, I am thoroughly sickened by the actions of the students of this university. This is an institution of higher learning and cultural development? What a joke!

Respect for personal property and all consideration has vanished, as many recent incidents throughout the year have proven. Consider, for.example, the theft and vandalism of Robbie Jones' sculptures in Smith Hall.

Well, here is the latest on the disgusting list. The art department is bravely (if not wisely) attempting to set up a student show in the Student Center. As of this writing the show isn't even complete yet and already some idiots have gone to work on defacing and stealing the entries.

On April 10, two of these sweethearts walked over to a large 4x6 foot rya rug which was in the exhibit, took .it down, and started nonchalantly walking out the door with it. The rug. was mine. Luckily, another art major saw all this and had the nerve to scream at the top of her lungs. They dropped it and ran.

That rug was my Winterim project. It cost $150, took over fifty skeins 'of wool, and approximately 300 hours of work. The cost and the work matter to me of course, but that is not the point. I designed it, I made it, and IT IS MINE! No one else has the right to have it. Why do people feel that art objects are everybody's property? Don't they realize that some poor fool sweated over it the same way they sweat over their term papers and hourlies? Contrary to popular belief art is not just a fun pastime that magically happens. Hours and .bou.rs of work make up the final product. There are no notes, no carl::\on copies to fall back on. When your piece is stolen, it is gone. Nothing remains.

Thank God I just happened to be

Groove Tube To The Editor:

Last week a new programming innovation, the "Groove Tube," awakened the usually dull and lifeless Student Center lounge. The crowds were large and enthusiastic about the Student Center Council venture. In order to provide similar programming the sum of at least $2,000 is needed for the first year. This necessitates either charging for the films or an appropriation of the money needed. To date no money has been appropriated for this program which has entertained more than a thousand students. Surely programs attracting that many students should be made possible when smaller organizations serving a fraction of that number are able to get funds.

Money should be provided in order to continue this successful venture which has brought more . students together in the lounge than the afternoon showing of General Hospital.

'Flattery'? To The Editor:

Perhaps it is flattery to have a painting stolen but it is a compliment that leaves no smile within me. And I feel a quesy sadness knowing that the hours of work and the spent emotions are lost to someone insensitive to all of it.

Criticism. To The Editor:

Twice this year, I have been the victim of attacks in two different student publications of the University of Delaware, including the REVIEW. In both cases, those personal attacks were based on completely false information and proven so by numerous members of the administration and the student body. I also understand that I have not been the only victim of such a slander. Don't you think that the purpose of a newspaper is to serve . people in a community rather than to be used by individuals as a means of destroying the image of other individuals? I don't believe that there is a need to mention names but I feel sorry for those people who use a public media to express personal criticism of the minority of individuals who are willing to accept their responsibilities on this campus.

To be alive in this time, in this place, is to-walk through a thicket of thornbushes. They scratch you with their questions, madden you with their paradoxes. The following are some of those _ thornbushes.

******

In Newark's most venerable bar, town and gown drink in separate areas. The students and professors, who are presumably interested in the interchange of ideas, drink in rooms bursting with juke-box noise. They can barely hear each other shout. The townies, who are mostly blue-collar types, and presumably anti-int.ellectual if not actually pro-Wallace, drink in the quiet room, where they can ha¥e a civilize-d conversation.

****** The peopl~ most fearful of

crime in the streets are the very same ones most horrified at the suggestion that maybe we ought to sell heroin legally, at 50 cents a bag, in every drug store in America. That way the addicts wouldn't have to mug people to get money for a fix. Of course we'd still have the addicts, only they would live longer on purer stuff. Such a solution, of course, is too gentle to be respectable.

******* A dream: A voice in the

rear of the Democratic

convention hall said, "Will tpe real Hubert Humphrey please stand up?" Another voice answered, "He is standing up, he's just too tiny to see." And over in the corner the pros were lining up the delegates for a re-run of 1968. Outside, three students who hate the war and hate Humphrey were reading a rock newspaper. They forgot to register in time to vote in their state primaries.

******

A burger or burgher is a citizen of a city, a middle-class type, a bourgeois, a square. All America, including hippies, eats at Burger King.

European literature is supposed to have the advantage of a rich background of mythology. Well, America has its myths too. One of them is that there is no class system here. Joe Zilch insists he's in the middle class along with his boss. But Joe says, "Good morning, Mr. Smith," and Mr. Smith replies, "Good morning, Joe."

What would happen if one day at the Scrounge they drew out the c"llophane-­wrapped sandwiches on plastic white bread, and instead placed on each table (for a flat fee) the following: a couple of huge loaves of r fc h , d a r k , c r u s t y pumpernickel or peasant black bread, a couple of huge hunks . of unpasteurized, unhomogenized, unAmerican Swiss cheese or some equally unpasteurized - Vermont cheddar that was cured in an old cowbarn, and a head of fresh lettuce, and some real butter, and a couple of pitchers of wine, and a pile of real oranges and apples and pears, and let the students go to it?

My students this February didn't have strong opinions on whether William James was right in saying we need a "moral equivalent for war." The reason they didn't has finally dawned: for as long as they can clearly remember, we haven't needed an equivalent for war. We've had war.

a ·eaders Respond

Unfair Evaluation To The Editor:

We the members of the German House strongly protest the unfair treatment of the German Department in the University Course and Teacher... Evaluation, Fall, 1971. The childish ranking of professors among their collegues (e.g. "X fared better than Y, but not as well as Z

_or _ Q"), c~ntributes nothil}g toward the evaluation of any teacher or his course. While we recognize that varying degrees of teaching effectiveness exist in all departments, pitting one professor against another merely creates needless animosity among the faculty without improving the quality of anybody's instruction. Furthermore, the statistical bases for these ratings--i.e., the number of courses included, number of students in course and number of students actually responding-- are so small that the differences used to say one professor is "better" than another are meaningless.

'Fhe entire report ret1ects a

very negative attitude toward academics, with editorial comments such as "Can't ask much more for an introductory German course," or "as painless as possible." The anti-language bias of the editors stands in sharp contrast to the committee's claim to merely "summarizing" students' written viewpoints. The crude, harsh language and cutting comments injected by the editors unjustly distort true student opinion. We consider it extremely ironic that this Department, which we know to be especially open-minded and receptive to constructive student criticism, should suffer at the hands of this "objective" committee.

The rains came. Spring rains, of course. But nonetheless they drowned much of the campus spirit surrounding last weekend's festivities.

The rain on Saturday forced the cancellation of the events scheduled for the South Mall Carnival.

However, Friday evening on the beach and Saturday evening, transferred to Carpenter Sports Building, were not daunted.

Music highlighted Friday's concert on Harrington Beach. Many failed to appreciate the bagpipe music of Thomas Standeven. But the crowd readily responded to the easy gospel rock sound of Fontilla. Hand-clapping, foot-stomping and even some unheard of dancing abounded when folk-star Brian Carney led the group iri a "golden oldies" sing-a-long. The atmosphere continued with rousing Irish pub music provided by the True Life Believers.

Throughout the evening, according to John Gillespie, coordinator of Spring Fever, there was "never more than 500 people" but many more came and went during the evening.

The attendance for Saturday night's big concert doubled the figure. 1,000 brave souls confronted the elements to reach Carpenter Sports Building, Dreams, and Moogy and the Rhythm Kings. The unusual was to be expected and included birthday greetings issued from the stage.

Sunday's sun smiled on more music and the traditional Greek Games. Russell and Hamilton, aided by Bob Rittman, provided early afternoon entertainment. Mount Olympus found itself reincarnated into Harrington Beach as fraternities matched their brawn in tests of skill.

Theta Chi copped most of the honors as they swept past their competitors in the tug-of-war, VW push, rock throw, and chariot race.

- ----- - ·- - -- . FRIDAY, SATUR~Y, SUlJDAY

APRIL 21,22,23

The success of Spring Fever has already prompted more plans. Efforts are being made to bring Fontilla and Brian Carney back to campus next fall. The hope for more sun in the coming weeks has bred equal hope that more outdoor concerts on the beach can be instituted.

The event itself is the second such extravaganza this semester. The success of Student Center Day in February prompted several campus organizations to join forces in making Spring Fever a reality.

Working together, in noticeable cooperation rather than opposition were the Student Activities Committee, the Student Center Council, the Central Fraternity Government, the Inter-class Council, the Student Government Association, the Phoenix, the Commuters Association, and the Association for the Awareness of Women Students.

"Spring Fever went very well," commented Gillespie. "It would have been better if the weather hadn't turned against us ... but people got Spring Fever anyway."

Shades of Woodstock come vividly to mind. Maybe next time a rousing "No rain, no rain" chant will forestall the deluge.

literary Review Contains Student Fiction, Poetry

The first edition of the Delaware Literary Review will be published next month, with May ·nr as the tentative date.

The Review was founded early this spring by four graduate students in the English department, who felt there was a need for a creative writing outlet at the university.

The magazine is about equally divided between poetry and fiction. There is also a small section of criticism and an interview with William Gass, author of the novel "Omensetter's Luck."

RESPONSE Gary Mullinax, GR, one of

the editors, said that response

to the editors' call for contributions last spring was great.

"We got quantity and quality," he said. "There are good writers out there and we had to reject a l~t of things that were good. We didn't look for a particular kind of poem or story. There are no general themes at all," he continued.

READING Each editor read every

manuscript and short story. They waited until the Mar. 10 deadline for contributions had passed before even beginning. The other editors are Thomas Makofske GR John Quintus, GR, ' and Charles Reilly , GR.

About 40 writers. all

students, are represented in the magazine. It will be about 150 pages long and will be free on campus. Some copies will be sold off campus, but only 600 copies are being printed. Any money from sales will go to the English department, which paid publishing costs.

The editors are definitely planning to publish another magazine next winter. Next year three of the editors will be leaving, but they hope the magazine will be continued by others.

They are also considering soliciting manuscripts from a nat ional audience, but this would not mean that contributions from university students wouldn't be welcome, they said .

Up Against the War The rain kept coming

down as it would all day long, sometimes a drizzle sometimes a downpour. But the marchers kept coming too, up from the subways and through the side streets. Many had umbrellas and hats to cover themselves from the freezing rain and many had nothing at all. But they all stayed, waiting patiently as the marching line assembled.

Probably over 50,000 marchers stepped onto the cordoned off streets on Saturday as the demonstration, many blocks long, began. At times a crowd would surge over the police barricades. "We can't hold 'em back," said one cop.

They moved forward, relatively quiet at first, encased by the towers of rigid steel, concrete and glass around them. On the sidewalks and inside the massive buildings, protected from the cold and the rain, stood the American people peering out through the

windows at the huge march. They were dry and saw no reason to come out.

T·he marchers chanted "out now .. . peace now" and sang and pleaded, sometimes angrily, to the people on the sidewalks and in the lobbies to join the march. Some did, but most just stared or laughed, nervously.

Although the majority of the marchers were young, many were middle aged and older men and women. They came from all over. Many of the young were from area universities and high schools. Other ~people were from the city.

One middle-aged man said that he had come from Boston with some relatives and he expressed hope that the march would "do good." Another young man said that he was part of a contingent of 35 from Tallahassee, Florida. McGovern buttons were everywhere.

The rain, despite all the

misery that it caused, did accomplish one worthwhile thing. It kept away the many people who usually go to peace rallies just for the fun of it. The thousands who marched and then stood patiently and attentively through the following hours of speeches at the rally were not there for the fun of it.

They were serious about what they were doing. They were concerned about the war and the lack of official recognition of public sentiment against it. They were peaceful and they did not riot but they were angry about the bombing and the killing. They were up against the wall.

On Times Square in front of tbe mass of humanity one could hear their echo beating against the concrete that surro~nded them, faster and faster, "peace now .. . peace now ... peace now."

These were the people who were dedicated, who

would not stop until they could say that there WAS "peace now."

One marcher got in front of the lead banner and tried to get the marchers to hold up their middle finger for the cameras. The crowd roared its disapproval and raised the peace sign or the clenched fist, and chanted, "peace now ... peace now."

Later Daniel Ellsberg was there and Ruth Colby, John Kerry, Ozzie Davis, Ben Gazzarra, others. John Lennon and Yoko came and sang "all we are saying is give peace a chance" as the mass of demonstrators joined in enthusiastically.

One speaker comtnented, "We are more determined than ever to end this war ... and end the bombing. April 22 is only the beginning."

The massive rally finally ended and the demonstrators left to find their way back home through the rain. They

"l>i rtyn1ouih" By PAM BANKOSKI

Newark Police Chief William Brierley pulled his force off the road Friday to present certificates of appreciation to students who had participated in the Winterim Student-Police program.

The ceremony, scheduled to begin at 2:30 p.m., was delayed about 40 minutes until patrolmen could be called in from Friday's peace demonstration to form the Honor Guard.

Once begun the ceremony went smoothly and quickly. Brierley formally thanked the student group for their participation, and voiced his hope that the student-police friendships which developed during the three-week program would be long-lasting.

SUCCESS "We feel the program has

been lOO'Y,, successful," Brierley stated. He said that if each certificate were a $50 bill, it wouldn't be enough to compensate the students for their participation.

Nineteen students and five officers completed the three-credit Winterim project. Students rode patrols, manned the desk, learned teletype and fingerprinting techniques, visited courts,

and in general learned what police procedures are all about.

OFF-DUTY The five policemen

enrolled in the project contributed off-duty hours to extra experiences like the organization of a field trip to FBI Headquarters and a simulated drug raid.

Those involved in the program label it a valuable experience. Student and police stereotypes were broken, friendships were formed, and plans for future student-police programs were activated.

GRANTS At present Brierley is

seeking grants for police-community programs. He hopes to make possible a year-round program with

Director Knocks Present System Med Schools Caught In Midst of Change New Health Care Asked

By KATHY PHILLIPS "Insurance companies turn

up the volume on their ads on television to make money, but they can't drown out the voice of the consumer."

Mr. Max W. Fine, Executive Director of the Committee for ' National Health Insurance (NHI}, expressed this opinion on the need for a new medical care system, Friday in the Agricultural Hall Auditorium before an audience of 40 people.

Fine spoke on behalf of the consumer: "What does the consumer want? To be able to get care when he needs it, to get good care, and not to be burdened with the cost details of care."

The health care system isn'g going as well as people would like it to, according to Fine. Money and schools are needed, services are down, and the prognosis isn't promtsmg. One problem seems to be that there are more people that live longer.

Clean Up Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity

will hold a clean-up of the White Clay Creek this Saturday, starting at 10 a.m.

Today, 35 billion people have no health care at all; and 100 million people have no specific care on hand, said . Fine.

"We must end a horrible system where there is no control," commented Fine on the existing health insurance companies. Statistics show that people carrying Blue Shield insurance have 40% less surgery than others, and 45% less hospitalization.

l''ine reported that insurance companies sell policies for everything, but the illness of the consumer is usually what he's not covered for. Fine amusingly noted that there is a "buffalo policy" that says one can only claim when "he has been run over by a herd of buffalo on the Delaware bridge at high noon!"

The new proposal that the NHI committee is supporting is called the National Health Security Act, and uses the trust fund approach. The policy would be open to anyone, and would call for a 1% individual tax up to $150 per year, a 3lJ2% tax on employer's payroll, and a matched 31h% from the federal government.

Witn the funds of $600 million, there would come the advent of developing new

manpower that was disadvantaged before, new facilities, planning costs money, -and an incentive for physicians to take leadership roles. According to Fine, preventive medicine, a most promising area, would be sought. This would include further immunization research and nutrition counseling.

Two other major contenders before Congress are the American Medical Association's bill calling for a tax for health insurance, and Nixon's proposal. Fine explained Nixon's proposal as having four separate parts for the working population, the poor, the aged, and public assistance groups. "It can't be administered," said Fine, "too many people would be left out."

By RENE BAIRD "The previous half-century

of uniform curriculum and stability of institutions are at an end and medical education is caught up in a mish-mash of change."

Dr. Richard M. Magraw, M.D., of the University of Illinois, told an audience of about 80 Friday night that the university's development of a medical association program is an adventuresome undertaking. He noted the rapidity of change medical schools are experiencing.

Magraw stated that a major error would be the replication of educational styles of the past generations, noting the current pressure for change in the role of the physician.

The major change in education, Magraw explained, has come through the change brought about by Medicare and Medicaid which has ended the reliance of the poor on charity hospitals. Medical education and charity hospitals were heavily dependent upon each other, Magraw said, and now that the poor can "buy their way out" of the charity system into dependence upon regular practitioners, the viability of medical education is threatened.

Magraw pointed out that the student physician has had a "loose and distant" relationship with the charity patient based on the concept that "he's the institution'.s patient and therefore I'm not obligated to him." Now, however, the patient is becoming relatively more powerful and the obligations between the ·physician and the patient will be altered.

In discuSsing several recent trends in medical school education, Magraw mentioned a general decrease in scheduled classroom time. including a 50% decrease in basic sciences. Magraw also noted the increasing use of independent course studies, the "track system" and individualized grades. "The awarding of the M.D. degree," he stated, "does not imply a standardized (learning) experience."

In mentioning that medical education is regarded as a national resource, Magraw said that due to the increasing need for more physicians, beginning in July, every medical school in the country will receive approximately seven hundred dollars for every student they enroll.

Cites Deficient Finances

Board Denies Degree to School Pete duPont Speaks At Postal Hearing

Deficiencies in financial matters, physical plant and academic standards prevented the Delaware Law School, the first in the state, from obtaining the right to grant degrees.

The state Board of Education, the body empowered to decide who may grant degrees, denied the school status as a "Recognized Applicant" upon these factors. Being a "Recognized Applicant" is the first in a series of steps toward full approval and the right to grant degrees.

The board's action stemmed from a recommendation of a special committee that was established to evaluate the Jaw school. The committee included lawyers, a judge, university officials and personnel of the state Department of Public Instruction.

REAPPLICATION Although the law school

failed in its first attempt, the board made it clear that officials of the law school may reapply when they feel they meet the standards.

The Delaware Law School opem:d its doors last September. It was founded by Alfred Avins, who is the

school's dean. There are 170 students enrolled.

FINDINGS Findings of the committee

were: The school has not

demonstrated that it has sufficient income so that its academic policies will not be influenced by commercial motives. The school has no other source of income other than tuition and it doesn't operate under a budget.

The school's physical plant is not adequate. There is no library, no faculty office space and no space for extracurricu Jar activities.

Trabant, Students Discuss Range ofCurrent Topics

By JOYCE VOSS

Rap with the president, and you learn a lot.

In a two-hour session at the Russell D&E lounge last Tuesday evening, President E.A. Trabant talked with students on subjects ranging from tuition increases and the Gordenstein controversy, to "lighter" topics such as the train-vibrations which shake his home. About 15 students gathered at 8 p.m. for the informal discussion with Trabant.

"The out-of-state student gets the shaft when the price goes up," said one coed. Trabant agreed, but stated that the university still loses money on every studenL enrolled. It costs the university $3800-4000 per year for the education of each student, he said. To offset costs, the state subsidizes approximately $1000 of this price each year. "The out-of-state student is still getting a good deal," Trabant concluded.

BUDGET Moving further in the area

of funding and appropria­tions, Trabant discussed the university budget for this

year, as well as the breakdown for the '72-'73 term. The operating budget for this year was $46.7 million; it is increasing to over '$52 million next year.

Areas Trabant listed for r e c e 1 vmg the increased funding were salaries for additional staff, increased salaries for present personnel, utility and maintenance costs, and security and transportation needs. Trabant expects a 10% rise in enrollment in the fall, which precipitates much of the budget increase.

CONCERN Several persons expressed

concern for Professor Arnold Gordenstein of American Studies, and askeq whether student input was having an effect on the decision making. Questioned to his feelings on the matter, Trabant said, "It would be inappropriate for me to say .. .it's an academic matter being handled at the faculty level." Trabant said that decisions about the future of American Studies are being made by the faculty senate, not by the President. He emphasized that for any question, suggestion, or criticism about academic

programs, the "places to be going" are the chairmen and the committee members of the faculty senate.

INPUT Trabant talked further

about "input"--sharing with students experiences he has had with irate parents and politicians, "elected officials, or those who would like to become an elected official," who criticize the university for being too radical. "Many criticize us for being too conservative," he noted, however.

Trabant commented ~ briefly on the Dilley-Lippert study on the College of Home Economics, stating that he has accepted the major recommendations of the report. But he does not agree that the Home Economics extension program should be transferred to the College of Home Economics.

The present structure places the extension program under the College of Agriculture. Trabant feels that a close rapport now exists between the university and the outside community, and that it should be preserved. Too, legal obstacles impede a move to

Review's Reaction Line

By AJIT GEORGE

Got a problem or question that baffles you? Write it down and send it to AJOt Mathew George, "The Review's REACTION LINE, The Review, 301 Stude_nt Center. Your . name must be included for consideration, but may be wothheld from pubhcatoon upon your request. All problems will be attempted upon, but due to the lack of space only selected questions and answers wi•l be published.

Vacation Evictions was informed that a resident of Christiana Towers cannot

stay there duri-ng the university's vacation periods. It this true? If so, why is this rule existing in an apartment complex? The university is finding it more and more difficult to shed its traditional parental attitude and is forcing us to follow ridiculous rules, although we are paying sky-high prices to live in this 'pent-house' so that we cait get away from the very stupid rules they are enforcing in the dorms.

Name Withheld by Request

The office of residence lif~t.. has changed one of its rules regarding the occupancy of Christiana apartments during university vacation periods. In a memorandum to all undergraduates, Edward F. Spencer, assistant director of residence life, stated that it had been determined that the rental rates for undergraduate students residing i~ Christiana Towers will include occupancy during vacation periods since they are apartment buildings. In other words, those students living in the Christianas will be permitted to occupy their apartments for the entire academic year from September through May. This is a ci~:tnge from the previous announcement, stated Spencer.

It must be noted here that those students who purchase a meal ticket will have to provide their own food during vacation periods. The three vacation periods are Thanksgiving, Christmas and Spring. If you are enrolled in a Winterim project, you will be issued a Winterim meal ticket.

Address? Recently I received a request from the Courier News in

Plainfield, New Jersey. It was about a request to its reader's assistance column. HELP. I am publishing the request in full form and if it relates to either you or anyone you know, please drop me a note.

Dear Help: I met a guy in Fort Lauderdale in Ja.nuary but I had to go

home the day we were supposed to exchange addresses. All I know is that his name is Jim and he goes to the University of Delaware and lives in that state. I wrote the university, asking if there was any possible way to locate him with this vaguE information, but received no reply. Since Ann Landers wouldn't be able to help me out, does 'Help' have any ideas on how to find out his address? I would like to thank him for helping me out in Lauderdale.

Sincerely, Elaine Lefhanic,

Ted Wilkens Eugene Pierce, director of plant operations was the person

approached to solve these problems. He told me that there was no slip for either of these problems. However, ~e assured me that he will check the water fountain problem immediately and correct all the clocks so that they will all read the same time. ·

During the campaign, a special newsletter is published on a monthly basis.

In an election year, the headquarters really goes into high gear. The full-time staff expands from five to eight employees. According to Milner, this full-time staff is supplemented by a large group of volunteers. The volunteers help committees in canvassing, in addition to working with the headquarters' staff on special mailings, voter lists, etc. About three months before the election, the party opens a campaign information center which dispenses pamphlets, buttons and candidate profiles.

It should be noted that these services only apply to statewide elections. Campaigns for national offices are independently financed and managed.

GRASSROOTS

Recently, the headquarters has inaugurated the concept of associate-committee people to bring young people into the party ~ at the grass-roots level. Boulden called this practice "part of the continuing ~ effort to get as many people as possible involved in politics."

But a well-coordinated committee structure is far from a reality. Unlike the Republicans, the Democrats provide no training seminars or monthly bulletins in order to keep committee people informed and up to date. There has been little or no district leadership provided by the state committee until recently. The Democratic committee system is still haphazard and disjointed.

Clearly the Republicans provide many more services to committees and candidates. Therefore, their central leadership is effective and the Party is successful.

Home Ec Dean Retires; Hopes to Travel Widely

By TERRY GODBY

Dr. Irma Ayers, dean of the College of Home Economics, will retire June 30.

According to Ayers, her early retirement is strictly for personal reasons and not due to the recently proposed changes in the college structure. There had been speculation that the College of Home Economics would lose its status as a separate college. However, in a recent meeting, Provost John Shirley announced his acceptance of the Dilley-Lippert proposal to maintain the college as a "viable unit" within the university.

Ayers has been prominent in home economics education

-locally and ·nationally for a number of years. She has served on standing and special

committees of the American Home E-conomics Association and the Association of Home Economics Administrators. In 1969, she completed a four year appointment to the Commission on Home Economics of the National Association of State Universities and Land Grant Colleges.

Born in West Virginia, but a longtime resident of the Pittsburgh area, Ayers received her B.S. from West Virginia University, her M.S. from Penn State and · her Ed.D from Columbia.

She has taught high school, and at a private school in the Netherlands West Indies. As an instructor at Chatam College, her principal assignment was organizing a new home economics department. She was an assistant professor at

the University of Tennessee from 1946 to 1948, when she was appointed dean of the College of Home Economics here.

In 1959, Ayers was named one of the six distinguished

alumnae of Columbia elected to Omicron Nu, the national honor society for home economics. She is also a member of the Mortar Board national honor society for senior women, Phi Kappa Phi, Phi Upsilon Omicron, Pi Lambda Theta, Kappa Delta Pi and Delta Kappa Gamma. She was one of the founders of "tassel," the university chapter of the Mortar Board.

A special exhibition of original lithographs, woodcut!", and other prints is being held today in the Rodney Room of the Student Center.

The presentation features 1

such artists as Albrecht Durer, Jacques Callot, Pablo Picasso, Garo Antreasian, Leonard Baskin, and S.W. Hayter, along with a number of area artists including Richard Bealle, Thorn O'Connor, Frank Eckmair, and Orlando Condeso.

the College of Home Economics. "At the moment it appears to be best as it is," he concluded. Further study will be conducted, however, before a final decision is reached.

Chatting about his personal life, Trabant listed his four favorite periodicals

(''The Center," "Change," "Natural History," and ''The Smithsonian"), and reminisced a bit about his coming to the university four years ago as President (he had had to register in the Hotel DuPont under an alias so the news would not. "leak out"), and talked about his present •interviewing of provost candidates.

When you know it's for keeps

"I believe in a style of commitment--it's not a job. This is their life, .this university."

A recent study averaged Trabant's work load at 14 hours per day, seven days a week. Not only for the future provost, but for himself too, Trabant sees a university posit ion as meaning commitment. As he concluded, "It's a life."

Nixon and South Dakota Senator George McGovern are running neck and neck in the 197 2 Presidential race, according to a poll of 91 college newspaper editors conducted by the Associated Collegiate Press, Minneapolis, Minn.

Although each received 23.1% of the total vote, 86.9% of the students believe Nixon will win in November.

Senator Edmund Muskie came in third in the total vote with 16.5%, but most of the

students (69.3%) thought he would receive the Democratic nomination. However, only 2.2% thought he would win in November.

Senator Hubert Humphrey has a chance at the Democratic nomination according to 14.3% of the students, and 11% thought McGovern would be nominated.

Invisible Candidat~y.~:H:.~J The announcement of the unknown candidate

had come as a major surprise to all those involved in the presidential election morass. It had come in the midst of those psychological funfests called primaries, whose dominant function was to lacerate the egos of those who could afford to sell themselves to the media.

The announcement's effect was apparent. Political observers all over the country went scurrying back into their dark offices and locked themselves up until they calculated a new set of odds for the election and performed the other little odd jobs that keep them content in life. Pollsters quickly came out with major changes in the percentage predictionst even though the new candidate was a total stranger to that amorphous institution politely called politics.

The nation, awaiting the candidate's first press conference and rally, began to beat to death theories about his background and social status. But the waiting was soon over and the assigned day arrived for the candidate's unveiling. Television crews and newsmen dragged in their usual quota of electronic overload perpetrators and set them up around the small, drab stage, looking at best like a small group of misplaced public crusaders.

BACKING Large groups of what amounted to fan clubs

wandered in sporting "Vote For What's-His-Name" buttons and announced full political backing despite even the slightest knowledge of the candidate or his platform. He was an unknown quantity made into a fad in a week by various abnormal publications offering ads for glasses that see through walls and other trivia usually reserved for those of Neanderthal mental capacity. Other people flocked in because the candidate had become a living conversation piece, thwarting the greatest minds that had ever pored over the local newspaper crossword puzzles in search of a guide to life or an afternoon of intellectual stimulation.

After a short delay for a station break and a bank of three detergent and toothpaste commercials by the television networks, the rally

began. The crowd began frothing at the mouth to see this new political saviour, a status that he had recently been raised to in light of having made no obvious past political mistakes.

APPLAUSE Then it began as solemnly as a high school

graduation, with one lone man appearing on stage and walking toward the microphone. The crowd burst into rabid applause, but were quickly silenced by the man who identified himself only as the candidate's public relations man and proceeded to introduce his employer to the world.

"I want you all to meet a very great man. Ladies and gentlemen, this is Mr. George M. Fantom, our next president," said the P.R. man, stepping away from the microphone and looking toward center stage.

Suddenly there came a voice over the public address system.

"Hello, I am George Fantom and I would like to ... "

A growing din cut hlm off from speaking any further as talk of fraud spread through the crowd. A voice came over the system, but nobody stood at t~e microphone.

The P.R. man grabbed the mike to offer an explanation.

"Wait a minute, folks. Mr. Fantom is here, but he can't be seen."

"Oh no, another recluse," moaned a spectator.

"No, he's invisible," exclaimed the P.R. man. At this, the television crews cut the program

to avoid hurting the public. Instead, they showed a mystified audience reruns of old sporting events which partially calmed them down after the political outrage perpetrated on them.

Meanwhile, pandemonium had broken loose back at the rally .

"But I am invisible," cried Mr. Fantom. "Then you haven't got a prayer in this

election, buddy. You ain't got no charisma like that other guy," yelled a cameraman.

back to the arena. The television networks cut off the reruns, angering plenty of people who didn't particularly care too much about what anybody had to say as long as the guy they voted for last time was still running, and turned the cameras onstage once more.

Coxe Takes First in Rally The invisible Mr. Fantom

stood onstage watching people stream away from him.

"Don't you want to hear my platform?" he pleaded at no avail.

"How does it feel to have played such an awful trick on the unsuspecting public, you crud?" asked a reporter.

IDEA

Suddenly the public relations man had a brilliant idea. He whispered something to an aide who was sweeping

up campaign buttons that had been thrown up onto the stage. At this, the aide ran backstage.

"PI ease come back, people. I have a really good platform and I know what the people want," Fantom continued pleading.

Within minutes, the aide was back with a burlap sack, the contents of which were dumped on Fantom.

"Flour?" he asked. An amazing transforma­

tion came over the crowd as they noticed the white figure standing at the microphone.

The !ines of departing figures suddenly reversed and came

The Labor Department related several incidents occuring in the past several months, one of which was that mail to Newark from Wilmington, a distance of twelve miles, usually · takes three days. Another complaint from the department was the inefficiency of Wilmington mail service. (Usually out-of-town mail is delivered faster than mail within the city of Wilmington).

"I want to be your president," said a terribly happy and no longer transparent Mr .. Fantom.

"Hurrah!" went the crowd.

"Hurrah!" went the networks and newspapermen.

"What happened to the stinking reruns?" went the television audience.

The gods showed their disfavor of the Commuter Association's Road Rally, Saturday, by opening the skies.

But despite the ail-day-long April shower, Chuck Coxe, AS5, took the First Place Trophy. Following Coxe were AI Marchello, AS4, in second place and AI Lebo, AS2, in third.

uffers Dumped in Triangular; emple and American Victorious By NEIL McCUTCHAN

"It seems that our league cets stronger and stronger each year."

These were the words of Coach Scotty Duncan last Friday after his golfers lost to both Temple and American University in a triangular

match held at Du Pont Louviers Country Club.

The Hens were nipped by American University, 400-401, and by Temple, 384-401.

It was one of those days in which only three Hen golfers broke 80. Mike Mueller, Jim

Schaefer Brewer~es New York and Albany, N.Y., Balt1more, Md , Leh1gh

Prorock and Charley Horn managed 79's, while Bill Harman had an 81, and Jack · Tuttle an 83.

"We lost to two strong, teams on Friday," commented Duncan, "both of whom are having excellent seasons. The loss to American was especially difficult to take, for this was the first time that American has defeated Delaware in golf, although they always had excellent teams over the eight years that we've played them." MACS

"I still think we have a good ball club," continued Duncan, "and feel that we have a good shot at winning the MAC championships in May. This week we play four teams in the league, and this should give us a pretty fair idea of just where we stand in relation to the other clubs.

"It seems everyone has improved drastically over last year, and this in itself speaks very highly of the league that we're playing in. We know that every time we tee it up there's someone there just waiting to knock us off, and that is why it is so important that we get up for every match. If we don't, we're in for a long afternoon." TRIANGULAR

Tomorrow the Hens (8-3) will host St. Joseph's College and Johns Hopkins in a triangular match at Du Pont Louviers Country Club. Teeoff time will be 12:30.

Trackmen Top Bucknel In Soggy Home Debut

By GENE QUINN

Braving a driving rainstorm and chilling temperatures, the Hen track team downed Bucknell Saturday, 87-5 8.

Coach Jimmy Flynn's tracksters, in their only home meet of the season, won 11 events while the Bisons copped six. The Hen victories included sweeps in the 100 and 220 yard dashes.

John Fisher notched first in the 100 with a 10.5 clocking while Dennis Collins and Dave Ponder finished second and third respectively.

The Hens' relay strength was also eminent. The mile relay team of Stewart, Larry Tomsic, Mears, and- Mongan streaked to victory in 3:22.4, John Semanchik, P:>nder, Collins, and Joe Schlosbon of the 440 yard relay team likewise left the Bisons in a cloud of dust, winning in 43.8.

BAD WEATHER The inclement weather

forced the field events competitors inside the Fieldhouse with the exception of the throwing events.

SWEEP--John Flickinger, Dave Ponder, and Dave McKeeman (left to right) finish one-two-three in the 220 yard dash Saturday. Rain and 40-degree temperatures added to the times while the jumping events were moved into the Fieldhouse. However, the Hens were strong and downed Bucknell 87-58.

In the 220 John Flickinger broke the tape for the Hens in 23.2 with teammate Ponder in the runner-up spot and Dave McKeeman taking third.

DOUBLE WINNEK The Hens also boasted the

afternoon's only double winner in Fisher. In addition to his spring victory, he won the triple jump with a leap of 47 feet.

John Denver won the discus throw with a toss of 140 feet 41h inches. Bob Houser took second in the shot put, heaving the ingot short of the 44 feet 8 inch winning mark. Chris Zahl placed third in the javelin throw.

Towson State Drops Hens 9-3 The cindermen had one of their finer showings of the year in the running events. Lloyd Mears (49.5) and Flickinger finished one and two in the 440 yard run. Pete Sukalo and Charles Steward placed second and third respectively in the 880 yard run. Ed Mongan (55.0) won the 440 yard intermediate hurdles while John Blanchard took third.

Leaping 23 feet 4 inches, Jim Sieman won the long jump with Preston Bowden taking third. Sieman also placed second in the high jump. Julius Bauman (13 feet 9 inches) and Joe Yeager rounded out the Hen effort and point total finishing first and second in the pole vault.

Delaware's lacrosse team went into Saturday's mud-filled fray at Towson State with little to lose and much to gain.

They came out scathed with their first loss of the season, but probably did little harm to their ranking and

. morale after a 9-3 defeat to the non-conference foe.

"We gave them a good game," said attackman Lee Levis. "We did exactly what we wanted to do for three quarters, but they had the better sticks. Intensity-wise, this was our best game."

LEVIS BLANKED But it wasn't enough

against the seventh ranked team from Baltimore. Levis was held scoreless--checked by a stingy Towson defense and horrendous playing conditions.

"They had to stop the game at least twenty times to

Rainouts Weather played havoc

with Delaware's sports schedule for the second weekend in a row Saturday and Sunday. Home baseball doubleheaders slated for both days were postponed due to the poor conditions and the tennis team's match at Lafayette was cancelled. Weather permitting, the baseball twinbill with Lehigh was to be made up yesterday while the Hen nine travels to Catholic tomorrow and hosts Villanova Thursday at 3 p.m. The netters, meanwhile, host Rider today at 2 p.m. and play at American Thursday.

get mud off the ball after it was scooped," related Levis, "but the weather was an equal hindrance to both teams. It's probably the worst conditions I ever played in."

Delaware fell behind early and trailed 3-0 after one period. But two goals by Robbie Gearhart and one by Charley Kamp (all unassisted) brought the Hens within two early in the third period.

TIME OUT Towson proceeded to call

time out and regroup forces. Their strategy apparently panned out as a quick goal halted the Hens' momentum. Another third period score and two fourth quarter tallies sealed the verdict for the winners.

Six different Tigers contributed to the Towson scoring effort, as Tom Mullen, Tim Havens, and Craig Saxon each had two goals. Joe Ardoling added two assists.

Statistically, the game was much closer than the score would indicate. The Hens had four more minutes of possession time than the victors and took just six fewer shots on goal ( 31-26). The Delaware defense held the high scoring Tigers under their per game average of more than 15. ·

RANKING "We learned alot against

Towson," concluded Levis. "I think it will .-,definitely help us in the games that remain. I doubt if our ranking (17th) will be affected by the outcome."

The battle-hardened Hens are now home for back to back games with Loyola tomorrow and Franklin and Marshall Saturday. Game time tomorrow is 3:30 p.m. while Saturday's encounter with the tough Diplomats (an MAC opponent) will begin at 2p.m.

Rebuilding Tradition L------------------------By ROGER TRUITT------'

Friday afternoon, Lee Levis was on cloud nine.

He and his lacrosse teammates were undefeated after six games and the junior from Abington, Pa. was eagerly anticipating Saturday's match with Towson State, the seventh best lacrosse school in the country.

Equally contributing to his ecstasy was the fact that he would be married next month. J-le seemed quite excited about living at the shore for the summer--taking rriarine biology courses during the week in Lewes while lifeguarding on Rehoboth Beach weekends.

But Saturday's convincing 9-3 loss to Towson in the rainy Baltimore suburb brought Levis and his teammates back to reality after nearly four weeks of perfection.

It wasn't that Delaware should havt! won. As everyone expected, Towson had the better sticks. Still, a 6-0 "rebuilding year" team finds it difficult for the magic to end. Levis had said it Friday: "It seems horrible to imagine losing."

Three years ago, nobody would have raised an eyebrow over a lacrosse loss. It was much more common. But in 1970, the Hens got their first All-American after a 10-1 season. Then last year a veteran team finished atop the Middle Atlantic Conference with a 9-3 record. Suddenly Delaware was frequenting the . national ran kings and a tradition was quickly established.

When you stop and think, its really quite amazing. Probably three out of four stickmen on this year's squad never played the sport before coming to Delaware. And with Levis the only returning starter among only five lettermen, any tradition was expected to be sent reeling into oblivion. Even Coach Mickey Heinecken was

pessimistic: "I guess this will be the year the other teams will be able to get back at us."

According to Levis, Heinecken has been• the major factor in the Hen's surprising success. "He's just great," revealed the 6-1, 185 pound attackman. "He's always aware of what's going on in the game, and is flexible enough to make the needed changes. Coach stresses playing well and having fun--he's not that emphatic about winning."

Levis is also quick t9 credit his teammates. "Steve Spence and Roobie Gearhart have been great offensively and the co-captains (John Feeney and John Miller) have done an excellent job of holding the defense together. The play of the younger members of the team has really inspired the rest of us."

Levis admits that he's had more fun playing the game this year than ever before. With fourteen goals already to his credit, including a game-winning overtime tally against Lehigh, it's easy to see why.

In a way Levis is different from most of his teammates. For he has played the game since ninth grade when he made the Abington varsity. Lacrosse has become a family tradition for the Levises. Lee's older brother, "Stretch", was Delaware's most valuable player two years ago, and made second team all conference. Another brother, Scott, is also presently involved in the game as the head manager for the Hens. Back in Abington, a younger Levis is also becoming an accomplished stickman while Lee's father organizing little league lacrosse in the area.

With a heritage like that, there's little what the conversation will turn to at month's wedding reception.
