Thursday afternoon of last w eek A lfre d S m ith , an employee o f the Personnel Of­fice, was detained for question­ing by the Philadelphia Police, E igh teen th D is tr ic t, W est D etectives, on charges o f embezzlement and fraud, accor­ding to Elizabeth Gemmill, Vice President for University Rela­tions, The report has also been u n o ffic ia lly co n firm ed by sources in the Personnel Office.

Alfred Smith was a class 5 clerk in charge o f billing and reimbursment of health plan benefits for Drexel Faculty and Staff. He allegedly wrote checks to himself. The amount of money involved and the dura­tion of this activity is not known. John Davis of the Drex­el Internal A uditor’s Office and Ed Smith, Director of Security, refused to comment on the subject.

According to some sources, Smith was embezzling for some time; he was reported by a suspicious bank teller after he cashed a check. After the report.

an investigation was begun. Ac­cording to Vice President Gem­mill, the arrest followed quick­ly after the Internal A uditor’s investigation.

When first asked, Russell Phillips, Alfred Sm ith’s super­visor, said that he was “ surpris­ed and shocked.” The next day Philips refused to comment on

Phillips:“ I was suprised and shocked”

the matter and denied that he had done so on the day before.

According to Philips, M r. Smith had been employed by the Personnel Office by Drexel University since September of 1984. M r. Smith was due for promotion within the Personnel O ffice this week.

Smith is no longer working at Drexel, his position is being fill­ed by a temporary employee un­til a full-time replacement can be found. Philips has not seen or spoken wiA Smith since September 24th.

Special to The Triangle

Last Wednesday the distribu­tion of m icrocom puters to freshmen was completed without problem s, according to the microcomputer support center. Virtually every Drexel under­graduate now owns a micro­computer. This gives Drexel one of the heaviest concentrations of Macs in the nation; approximate­ly 12,000 Macs are in use by Drexel students, faculty, and staff.

When Drexel first instituted its microcomputer program in 1983 students recieved the then new 128K Mac. Since those students are now seniors virtually every undergraduate student at Drexel now owns a microcomputer. This gives Drexel one of the highest concentrations of Macs in the na­tion, with over 12,000 in use by students, staff, and faculty.

This year students were given the choice of purchasing either the Macintosh Plus, for $1390 plus tax, or the newer and more powerful Macintosh SE for $1775 plus tax and an additional $90 for the keyboard. These prices are substatially discounted from the Apple computer list prices.

In addition to the computer each fresman recieved a plethora

of software packages. In 1983 freshmen recieved MacWrite, Multiplan, MacPaint, BASIC and a choice of either Pascal or Mac- Draw. This year students reciev­ed Excel, BASIC, Pascal, File- maker, MacPaint, MacWrite, and HyperCard. They also recieved a coupon, redeemable with Apple, for Multifinder, and a coupon r^eem able at the Microcomputer Center on November 16th for Typing Intrigue, a typing tutor.

A vast selection of other equip­ment is availible from the

PHOTO/Chuck Browne Microcomputer center, reanging from modems, external drives, and networking equipment, to Mac II’s, which start around $3,000 and can go as high as $10,000. Students can purchase the Imagewriter 2 printer for about $473 and those who ordered one during distribution can expect to recieve it on Oc­tober 13. Normally there is a four to sixteen wait for ordered equip­ment. Drexel’s policy is that no microcomputer equipment be kept in stock.______________

At 2:00 a.m . Thursday m or­ning, D rexel’s Physical Plant completed negotiations for a new two year contract with the Local 835 Operating Engineer’s union. The contract expired on midnight W ednesday.

A cco rd in g to R ich ard O berholtzer, D irector o f the

Physical Plant, the negotiations were “ very congenial.” There was little danger o f a strike, he said, although the negotiations, which lasted for two weeks, went right down to the wire. There were no w ork stoppages or slow downs.

The head of the Local 835’s negotiating team was Jim M ullin, a union representative. The negotiations were federal­

ly mediated.The new contract specified a

57C/hour increase this year and a 58C/hour increase next year. The last contract, which was negotiated about two years ago, awarded about 50C/hour raise each year.

According to O berholtzer wages were only part o f a large number of negotiating points

New service provided by OSIRby P au l Esenw einTriangle Staff Writer

The Office of Student Infor­mation and Records (OSIR) is now providing a special service which may be useful to many Drexel students. Located just outside OSIR are two large bulletin boards with complete Fall term class listings. The boards were first set up last spring and contain class code numbers, class titles, instructors names, class credits, class dates and .times, as well as room numbers.

Also outside OSIR are two com puter print-outs with a list o f students and their courses. T he lis ts a re a rran g ed alphabetically by student and are intended to aid the student who

is unsure what courses he is signed up for.

Once the winter term ’s pre­registration information has been mailed to students a ten­tative listing of winter courses will be posted.

Karen Jenkins of OSIR en­courages students to take advan­tage of the u p - to - d a t e course listings. The new services are intended to allow students to ob­tain answers to some simple questions without having to wait in lin e to see an O SIR employee. If the boards and print-outs are used more fully OSIR personel will have more time to devote to more difficult problems on a personal basis.

Although student response has not been as great as ex­pected, the same cannot be said

abou t the new D rop /A dd system. According to David Clawson, the OSIR Associate D irector, the entire process went o ff w ithout a hitch, although M onday, the third Drop/Add day of the term, went slowly. One reason the new Drop/Add system worked so well was the new “ d e l i - counter” numbering system which allowed students to avoid waiting in the Creese Lounge. This is a substantial improve­ment over the past where students might wait up to three hours to drop or add a course.

OSIR encourages students to stop by with questions about schedule adjustment, school records, or certifcations. They are open from 10:00 a.m . to 4 :3 0 p .m .

The U niversity ’s Student Congress met last term to discuss several* issues and hear from the guest speaker. Presi­dent W illiam S. Gaither.

At the meeting, the Co-op committee, a student group dealing with the co-op program and the security in Powelton Village were discussed. Mike C asolari, Student Congress President, had met with Peter Dodge o f the Powelton Village Civic Association (PVCA) and is working on gathering data concerning security problems with the cooperation of the IFA Council and a newly formed stu­dent committee.

Several questions were asked of Gaither, ranging from Drex­e l’s President-^faculty relation­ship to the formation of a frater­nity evaluation committee.

Gaither said that he believed that his relationship with the faculty will improve with time, and that he thought that several of the votes of no confidence were from uncertain faculty.

W hen asked abo u t the resignation of Vice President for A cadem ic A ffairs B ernard Sagik, Gaither claimed that Dr. Sajik had offered his resignation in the past, but Gaither had not

felt that the time was appropriate on these occasions, due to v acan c ies in o th e r v ice- p re s id en ti^ posts.

In addition, Gaither reaffirm­ed that he had no intention of resigning unless requested to do so by the Board o f Trustees.

Concerning academic pro­grams at Drexel, Gaither stated that some o f the problems were due to the deans not following with his Long-Range Plans. In D rexel’s future, the President would like to improve the University’s presitge and posi­tion to among the top 100 col­leges, thereby increasing Drex- el’s endowments and reputation. The final question o f the even­ing concerned the committee formed by Gaither to determine the future of the fraternity system at Drexel, and its lack of an Interfraternity Association C ouncil m em ber. G aith er replied that the committee would like to determine how the fraternity system could be im­proved, and that the IFA Coun­cil would be involved with the committee.

At the first meeting of the fall term, information on several previously discussed topics was updated These topics ranged from the paving o f “ Dog

C hanges in co-op system a re ex p la in edby Paul K. Johnson

Triangle Staff Writer

Drexel’s Cooperative Educa­tion program has undergone many changes in the past two years.

More changes can be ex­pected in the years to come. Winter/Spring and Summer/Fall Co-op assignments will be no more, after this upcom ing Winter/Spring cycle. ITie cycles will change to Spring/Summer and Fall/W inter, wiA an three term switchover cycle beginn­ing with the Sunmier term . Ac­cording to Sam Parker, Assis­tant Director of the Center o f C ooperative E ducation , an academic committee was ap­pointed by Drexel President W illiam S. Gaither to examine the Co-op process. This com­mittee recommended the cycles be changed because o f the break-up o f the academic year.

E ngineering and Science students were adversely affected by the older cycle because of the frequent problem o f two-term classes being broken up by an intervening Co-op cycle.

This term, for example, a science course named Classical Mechanics I is being offered; next summer, these students will take Classical Mechanics II. W ithout the six month break between classes, the students might be able to perform better in class.

Another reason for the cycle change is the sum m er job market. With the older cycle students in the Summer/Fall Co- OD had to contend with collece

students across the country looking for summer jobs. With the new cycle, Spring/Summer students will be able to find jobs before the summer employment rush. Also, Fall/W inter Co-op students will be able to fill the thousands o f vacancies when students go back to school.

Freshmen must take A lO l, Career Planning and Profesional Development, one term this year. Learning how to make a Resume and prepare for an in­terview are two important pro­cedures taught in the course. Co-op advisors will be assign­ed to each Freshman and meet during the W inter or Spring term to discuss and plan the Col­lege/Industry cycle and review Co-op mechanics. This meeting will enable the student to know what is needed for the Co-op selection process.

Freshmen and Sophomores are required to take a debrief­ing class upon return from their Co-op assignment.

All students are assigned Co­op advisors. The advisor will assist students in career plann­ing, looking for and selecting a job, and any other related aspect when not on Co-op.

When a student is on Co-op he/she will be assigned to a Co­op Coordinator. The. Co-op Coordinator will publicize jobs to students, coordinate student’s work experience while on the job.

Here are Some o f the current Co-op requirements: Taking the Co-op course, A 101; Debrief­ing Course; and submitting an Industry Report after each Co-

The Office of the Richard Schneider, Vice President for Research, has released the amounts of institiitional grants, contracted educational services, and research grants awarded to the different colleges from out­side sources.

This has been the best year in externally funded research in Drexel’s history. Vice President Schneider cites the hard work of the faculty in seeking external funding as the reason for the in­crease.

The engineering college reciev- ed the highest awards and research funding, with a total of $ 6 ,540 ,447 in aw ards and $6,405,447 in research grants. The next highest was the college o f science which recieved $2 ,618 ,246 in aw ards and $2,605,396 in research grants. The Nesbitt college of Design Arts recieved no award or grant money.

The two largest sources of awards and grants were the E>epartment of Defense and the National Science Foundation with to tals o f $2 ,469 ,789 and $2,007,016 respectively.

Acres” to the next Senior Party.The fraternities and Drexel

are cooperating to pave the area located between the fi’ont houses along 34th Street and the dirt parking area for a common social area. This work will be done in conjunction with tiie paving of the dirt area known as “ Dog A cres,” located between 34th and 35th Streets.

Investigations into the use of the student fees have determ in­ed that some o f the money goes to athletics and food services but 43% o f the $400 fee goes tp dorm renovations. The matter is under further investigation.

The faculty has stated to the Faculty and Course Evaluation Committee -(FACE) that they would like a standard evalua­tion. The evaluations of the past several years have varied, niak- ing it hard to keep good statistics. The faculty also re­quested that funding for the evaluation come from the ad­ministration, rather than the Stu­dent Congress. FACE is a stu­dent committee formed to im­prove the evaluation o f the courses and the faculty that teaches them at Drexel.

The next Senior Party is ten­tatively planned for sometime in October.

“No, I’ve never lost a term paper because of disk error. But then,

I’ve always used Sony”

jF h e n it’s three I MU m o’clock in the I # I # morning and W W you’re nearly done with your term paper, the last thing you want to see on the screen is “fatal disk error."

That’s why so many people insist on Sony

One reason is that Sony invented the 3.5" disk drive as well as the 3.5" floppy diskette.

Another reason Sony floppies are so popular on campus is their relentless

reliability. And that goes for our 5.25" floppies, too.

After all, when it comes to magnetic media, nobody’s ahead of Sony. We’re a world leader in

audio, video and computer magnetic media.

The thing to remem­ber about m a^ e tic media in computers is that almost any input error can be corrected, but lost data is forever.

So, instead of learning your lesson the hard way; trust the diskettes that set the standard for the others to follow.

Use the Sony.

YOUR BIRTHDAY THIS WEEK: So it’s your birthday. Are you happy with the way your life has come out? No, I didn’t think so. I know why. This week you will have insommnia resulting from the twelve times you were assaulted in front of the Bookstore by those old ladies asking, ‘^Are you a freshman? ARE YOU A FRESH­MAN?”

BORN THIS W EEK;Comedian Jay Leno, Stacey Crown, Moon Unit Zappa, Toto, and the 8 a.m. examination.

ARIES (Mar. 21 — April19) This is the week to make up for past debts (or at least make them pale in com­parison). Hit your friends up for $20 apiece.

TAURUS (April 20 -May 20) I don’t know. I just don’t know. I can’t figure you out. Maybe you should just go and do something very predictable, if only to keep my reputation intact, when I say that I imagine that you will do something unpredic­table this week.

GEMINI (May 2 1 - J u n e20) That class you go to this week with a hangover will be the class that stimulates your mind. It propels you forward, urging you to switch your ma­jor from Chemical Engineer­ing to Interior Design. Don’t let your condition stop you.

CANCER (June 2 1 - J u ­ly 22) Four student surveyors will walk through your dorm building one of these nights. They will have some official looking stationery and some tools. The leader will ask you If he can take some measurements. You say, “ what kind of measure­ments?” He doesn’t answer. You say, “ okay.”

LEO (July 23 - Aug. 22)You will be sent a letter ask­ing you if you would like to be considered as a candidate for a large, urban university. The letter has doodling on the edges, and the o’s are all fill­ed in with green ink. Go for the job.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 - Sept.22) A good — looking blonde named Lisa will call you up and ask you out to dinner. She sounds like she wants to have dinner; the decision is up to you. (Ladies, replace “ Lisa”

with “ Bwanei.” )

LIBRA (Sept. 23 - Oct.22) The most expensive tex­tbook you own, no matter what is is, n o matter how often you use it, will fall into the toilet while you are study­ing for an exam this week. Oh yeah, by the way, your credit at the Bookstore is destroyed, so a new book will cost cash.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21) The most con­voluted scheme in years will have you flabbergasted this week. Nothing else; I just wanted to use the words “ convoluted” and“ flabbergasted.”

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22— Dec. 21) A guy named Frankie will sell you on a con­cept that seems simple, yet is revolutionary in nature: rob­bery. Carry little money, and wear fake jewelry (I see some of you have already taken these precautions.)

CAPRICORN (Dec. 2 2 - Jan. 19) You will dress bet­ter this week, as well as ex­hibit dazzling wit and academic brilliance. (Now that the other signs are jealous of your luck, listen to me: get up, get out of bed, get dress-

-significant use of the building around closing time during the week. As a result o f this study, the Library will close one hour later, at 2 a .m ., Sunday through Thursday, and at 11 p.m. on Saturday. No Friday hours are

changed.The Circulation Desk hours re­

main tile same. Books may not be checked out after 12:50 a.m. on Sundays tfiro u ^ Thursdays, after 11:50 p.m . on Fridays, or after 9:50 p.m . on Saturdays. The Library staff stresses that students should be prepared to check any books out before these times, as there are other responsibilities they have to take care of before closing.

College Discount Association card: Ticket to savingsby Chris Norton

Of The Triangle

Bryan Kaplan, a University O f Pennsylvania graduate, has recently form ed the College Discount Association (CDA). C D A is a d isco u n t card developed for Philadelphia col­lege students. Designed as an alternative to the discount coupon books, the CDA card, when presented at sponsoring P h ila d e l[^ businesses, enables the card holder to receive dis­counts o f 20% or better. Most o f the 125 sponsors listed in the CDA directory are located around Penn’s campus or in center city Philadelphia.

Some o f the discounts include reduced prices or free drinks at Chili’s and Flanigan’s, free tq>- pings on pizzas at Allegro’s and Drexel pizza. At Fratelli’s the CDA m em ber gets the least ex­pensive o f two entrees free. The discount offered at The Comedy W orks is tw o tickets for the price o f one. Some o f the clothing stores included in the directory are Camillion, Xog and Zipperhead.

The CDA card also provides discounts at video rental stores such as W est Coast Video and, on Penn’s campus. The Movie Ticket. Also available are dis­counts at dry cleaners, health and beauty stores, sporting goods stores and even gyms.

W h a t is th e W r i t in g C e n te r?

The Writing Center is a placc for writers to come to talk about their work. Its services are free and open to all students in all classes at Drexel. and it is staffed by experienced tutors who have been trained in how to help others with iheir writing.

H o w d o I k n o w if I s h o u ld g o

to th e W r i t in g C e n te r ?

Suppose you’re writing a paper for one of your classes and you find yourself wondering: Does this really make sense? Will it sound ok to my reader? Arc there parts that are unclear? Parts that 1 should leave out? Or things I should include? A tutor at the Writing Center can help you find the answers to these questions and to almost any others that you may have about your writing.

W h a t w i l l h a p p e n w h e n

I g e t to th e W r it in g C e n te r?

Your tutor will probably begin by asking what brings you to the Writing Center: What sort of paper arc you working on? What was your assignment? When is it due? What kinds of problems are you having with it? and so on. Then she’ll ask you to read what you’ve written so far. Then the two of you will talk about your paper together.

There arc no grades, no homework, no grammar drills at the Writing Center. Instead, your tutor will simply tell you what she thinks you were trying to get across in your writing, and what parts of that writing did or didn’t work to make your intended meanings clear. You can then comparc her response to what you were trying to

say, and from there both of you can work on ways of making sure that your writing really says what you want it to.

B u t w h a t i f I 'm s tu c k o n a n a s s ig n m e n t? W h a t if I d o n 't h a v e a n y th in g w r i t t e n y e t?

No problem. Come to the Writing Center with whatever you have: notes, scribbles, thoughts, worries. You and your tutor can work from there.

Editor:

Now that the issue of the library obtaining copies of Drex- el’s yearbook. The Lexerd, is settled, I think it’s time to attack another major problem. If you’ve had to do any research involving back issues of the Inquirer, you know what a mess that area of the library is. The papers are usual­ly just stacked at random and many times the individual sec­tions are scattered. This is no way to treat such an invaluable resource.

The library is not completely at fault in this matter. There is an organized shelf set aside for back issues of the current month. These issues are supposed to be sorted by date. Issues from previous months are not so

thoughtfully handled. They are usually scattered about as previously described. There is definitely a need for more organization in this area of the library.

However, as I mentioned, the disarray is not entirely the library’s fault. If smdents treated the newspapers with respect, the problem would not be so bad. I don’t think that that is too much to ask. We are all adults here. There’s no reason why a student can’t put a newspaper back together and then put it in the pro­per place. If we all do this, maybe we could save this research tool for everyone.

Editor:

I was in junior high school when I first started to drink. It was ‘the thing to do’. I had already learned tlie effects of alcohol, I had grown up with the disease at home, yet I still had to be cool. After an adjustment period of a long time, I grew to- like alcohol, and better yet, the effects that it had on me when I had it in my body. I was young and naive, though I thought I was cool.

I drank liquor until my senior year of high school; actually, I drank too much liquor. I enjoyed the freedom it gave me; I found it easy to be outgoing and too dif­ficult to be shy. That’s why I continued.

I had many horrible nights when I was drunk. There were many times that I could not make it home and had to rest wherever I could find a warm, dry place (which, when drunk, is on the order of difficulty of maintaining a 4.0 for four years). There were many times when I found it hard to control my body and found some of the most interesting places to relieve myself. I have committed acts which, to this day, shame and embarass me.

Alcohol is easily found today, and with good reason, it is a wonderful drug. I am fortunate enough to have experienced it (and I say this with all sincerity).I believe that I have finally rid myself o f the urge to go and get (plastered). Yes, I still attend hap­py hour, but only on occasion and can be seen at some parties (though very few). I enjoy a cold beer every now and then; it is now a treat for the senses, instead of part of a sacrifice for a porcelain god.

So, it does not bother me when a bunch of people decide to get together and have a party to get drunk. And, who cares if they get a bit loud and'rude, just as long as they are controlled. What does bother me is seeing someone so plastered that they can hardly stand straight, let alone speak clear English. I understand that you too must go through a fiwdom revolution - but why out­side my front door?!?

Tau Epsilon Phi, what is it that you offer to your members that make them urinate on someone’s front door? Excuse me. The floor and wall surrounding one’s front door. And, whatever it is, why is it not moderated? Do you find it amusing that someone gets so drunk that it is difficult to walk home? (assuming he did walk).

The story is as follows...At a bit past 2:30 a.m ., early

Friday morning, just as I was fall­ing asleep, I heard someone ftun- ble for a few minutes trying to open the door to get into the vestibule of our building. (The building contains two apartments, both of which are reachable from the front door. Both apartments have a door and/or hall in which to enter from the vestibule). A few seconds after hearing this person manage to close the front door, I heard, much to my disbelief, what I thought was so­meone urinating. I got out of my bed and opened the door (to the vestibule), and there he was, barely standing, with his back turned towards me as he manag­ed to safely put away nature’s precious gift. As he turned and faced me, I saw that he was wear­ing a t-shirt with the letters of Tau Epsilon Phi sewed on the front. When asked if he was a TEP brother he replied (an almost in­

decipherable) ‘yes’, though the nod of his head gave it away. I could not believe that he could not wait two minutes before he made it to his own bathroom, not even 50 feet away from him at this point. Instead, he looked as if he had enjoyed himself. I certainly did not enjoy the smell which sur­rounded me. He then went out­side, waited on the steps for a few minutes, and proceded back into the vestibule, this time managing to get into his own apartment before causing any other pro­blems. I decided that I would vent my frustration by writing this letter.

What I ask is not to have the drinking stopped, but ju st moderated, in a healthy manner. And it is not even for my own benefit as much as it would be for the individual. And this plea does not pertain just to Tau Epsilon Phi, but to all who decide to have a party-involving alcohol. How many times are we going to dodge disaster?

I grew up in a household pro- blemed with the disease of alcoholism. I see the effects of what it can do and am constantly reminded what it has done. And I am not alone. There are may others who share these same pro­blems as I and my alcoholic. I just wish that I could influence everyone enough to try to moderate themselves when it comes to alcohol. Take a look around you during your next class. I bet at least half a dozen of those people have somehow been affected by a problem of alcoholism. I cannot emphasize enough the severity of this disease. I had to learn the hard way; I hope you do not.

block for The Triangle. Too corny? O.K. How ’bout “ This is my first time. I ’ve never done this before.” Maybe my

The Cynical EyeC h ris N o rto n

editor will go easy on me con­sidering that. I mean I had this fantastic article...well maybe just a good artice...what? All right already, this article stinks but it’s not my fault, honest! I can’t help it if The Triangle publishes a rebuttal to my ar­ticle before I write it. I’m not sure but I think I’ve been shafted. Or maybe it’s because my dog Othmer left me...oh, I forgot. I don’t have a dog I can blame it on. Si)rry. Anyway, cut me a break and don’t read the Drexel Master Plan from the welcome-back issue of The Triangle.

U nbeknow nst to most students, Drexel has adopted a never-changing program, perhaps even a policy. It’s called the D rexel De- Beautification Program. The goal of this program, which is

probably headed by the Waste (of m oney) M anagem ent Committee, is to keep the con­crete business from going bankrupt while eliminating the need to hire people to take care of those nasty flowers. It also nips insect control in the bud: no trees - no insects. Great idea, huh? There are several examples of where this pro­gram has lasting if not un­favorable effects.

Take the shurb that used to be next to the Kelly basketball courts. Just recently it was trinmied to fit the surroun­dings better. Trimmed to the stump that it is. It makes sense if you think about it though. The shrub looked so good that it made the basketball courts look bad. God forbid Drexel should buy nets for the backboard&.<That would CQ&t too much. Here at Drexel, the best solution is always the cheapest solution: get rid of the shrub.

Then there’s the grass out­side M yer’s or rather the lack of it. What are those little con­crete squares there for anyway? Some people think that they prevent soil erosion.

True, it does. But so does grass. I mean you can’t even walk on the squares because your foot gets stuck between them and you trip. Drexel pro­bably wanted a unique look.. .1 don’t know about you, but I think it’s the most unique way Drexel can think of to keep people of the grass, short of putting up an electric fence. Maybe Drexel doesn’t want it but sometimes people like to sit on the grass or lie out in the sun. If you like sunbathing on a bed of nails, this is the place to be.

And this year in front of the bookstore they painted the concrete dusty brown. I think the idea was to make it the same color as the barren, grassless ground around the rest of Drexel. Who are they trying to fool?! 1 know it’s still concrete under there. There’s so much concrete around this place that painting it really isn’t going to help. The color doesn’t catch your eye or even match the color of the student center. It’s just as bland as the concrete. So why waste money and paint it?

Next to the painted concrete

is the new entranceway that Drexel built last year. If you remember, there used to ^ a suken court on the other side of Creese except this one had three tall trees next to the sidewalk. But when Drexel decided to make it a cafeteria the trees had to go because they blocked the view of the dome. One can only wonder what Drexel will do when all the trees they planted around it, smack against the glass, grow tall enough to obscure it. My bet is they’ll probably trim them like the shrubs near the basketball courts.

Nobody will really tell me what the $416 general univer­sity fee is for, but I honestly think it’s so Drexel can buy more stock in a concrete com­pany. The quad is a classic ex­ample.' It was the only nice place left on the campus where the concrete looked O.K. It had lines of red brick to break up the flat, sandy appearance. But last spring, Drexel, in It’s infinite wisdom, hired a con­crete company to tear out the bricks with a jackhanmier and poured concrete in its place. Sometimes I think Drexel

hasn’t heard of “ if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”

The only good improvement that’s been made are the yellow banners that hang from some of the light poles around campus. They have “ Drexel” written in script and the school’s logo. Someone final­ly thought of something to add color to the concrete. Too bad it wasn’t someone working for Drexel. Instead it was a tribute from last year’s senior class.

Maybe this article seemed too cynical if you read what Drexel plans to do with this place. But, but...oh please forgive me, I didn’t see the Master Plan article until the eve of my deadline. I couldn’t think of anything else to write.

God I hope the Drexel Master Plan fails otherwise I ’m gonna look pretty bad. Wait! I didn’t dictate that! Stop!,..I’m not joking! Stop that! How do you turn this thing off?!

What happened to the review of the Drexel Player’s summer pro­duction? No room in that issue? Come on, Ed, you can do better than that! And what about the copy to go with that picture of Mark in last week’s issue? I doubt that an old guy standing with a violin in his hand is a sufficient indication to freshmen that Drex­el has a theater group. They pro­bably think he is the conductor of our highly visable symphonic orchestra.

Look, it has been established countless times that Drexel is a blue-collar school. And as a result, most of the student body would not know an Ibsen from a Shakespeare. We, meaningful organizations like The Triangle, The Players, and WKDU, have the power to supplement this mid­dle' calss mentality with a little bit of culture by providing oudets for written, theatrical, and musical expression. But, we have to

The Trianglesupport and compliment each other. There are always going to be different tastes and bad reviews (i.e. WKDU v. Horn), but at least that is some kind of acknowledgement.

Help all of us make our mark.P.S. Special thanks to Sally and

Mark for a job well done.

Great issue, but...Editor:

I thought the “ Drexel in the Year 2000” article in the September 25 edition was great, but I would like to make two comments about it. One is con­cerning the quality of print of the three pictures diagramming the Three-Phase Plan. It was im­possible to read the numbers of the build ings being add­ed/renovated, so you could not tell what was being done by the diagram. However, that is not really why I wrote this.

I would like to know why the Newman Center (building 51, N.W. comer 33rd and Chestnut)

was left off the map. Do we assume it no longer exists? Okay,I know it is not a true Drexel building in that it is not owned by Drexel, but it is made out of the same yellow-orange bricks, and is used by Drexel, students and faculty. Also, if you look on any current Drexel map, you will see that it is clearly labelled. So if it is labelled now, why wasn’t it at least labelled correctly on the future maps?

We are writing in response to the comie pinko article in support of the dropping of Drexel football by Jim Bruno. We love football, and if there was football at Drex­el, we might even love Drexel.

Drexel students are famous for their total lack of enthusiasm for the school. We think that in this day and age, football is a key for Drexel to become a well-known and popular university. We feel there are two ways for a univer­sity to be successful, one is

Start by taking in all the famed local sights. This agenda must include The Shaft (the fountain in the q u ad ), a c h e m is try or engineering recitation class (where you’ll see a complete­ly incomprehensible foreign TA teaching thermodynamics to a chalkboard), room 037 (ask Ed Smith about that o n e ), and the H ag erty Library (Philadelphia’s only edifice dedicated entirely to the honor o f Henry VIII) where you can see hundreds o f supposedly com petent adults completely ignore the basic rules o f courtesy and decorum by succombing to constant vocal henmiorhage.

Avoid classes like the plague. It makes midterms and fmals a great deal more in teresting . K ind o f an academic blind m an’s bluff. Use the opportunity to catch up on your sleep. If for some reason you must go, hide in the back at all costs. I t ’s easier to slip out early, and you can eat breakfast without being bothered. Also, the fo re ig n ram b lin g s o f whatever professor you hap­pen to be ignoring, take on a nice, monotonic blur from the back of the room — very restful. (Can you say “ white noise?” Sure. I knev/ you could.)

[NOTE: Pennsylvania’s legal age limit for the con­

sumption o f all alcoholic beverages is 21. Therefore,

, I would never recommend any act that violates state and local ordinances. Ever. So, when someone hands you your first cup of beer, say in a firm voice “ N O ” before swallowing. You are then ab­solved for your second and subsequent beers, up through and including number 47 — but no further.] On attending your first party, whether i t’s at one of our fine local public drinking establishments or at a fraternity party, feel free to have your first beer. W e’ll never notice. In fact, drink as much as you can possibly hold, preferab ly w ith a plastic cup in either fist. With any lu ck , y o u ’ll nev er remember soiling yourself, any of those bizarre acts you initiated with the o p ^ s ite sex (or the same sex if you’re particularly m isfortonate), putting yourself at the m er­cy o f complete strangers or how you got home. And w e’ll have had some damn­ed good cheap entertainment, thank you very much.

Be sure to exert your new independence. You are, after all, 18 years old and inunor- tal. So, some night soon take a stroll with a friend (or bet­ter yet, by yourself!) out 34th street to see the zoo. Ride our subways, walk our dark alleys and loiter on our cor­ners.'Again, preferably after midnight and by yourself. W ear lots o f flashy jewelry and be sure to carry lots o f cash, and wonder aloud whether Philadelphia is as friendly as they say. W hile you’re exercising your in­dependence, engage ih some mindless vandalism or distur­bing of the peace. Your new­found rights now include the right to be helcl in Philly’s finest until you rot (or until daybreak or you seem suffi­ciently terrified) — and you

don’t even have to tell your parents!

Keep your options open. Collect literature on alternate methods of education now before the Christmas panic hits. I understand that Ed’s School o f Diesel Mechanics has an outstanding reputa­tion. Airco Tech also offers a fine series o f instruction in how to set fire to yourself with a cutting torch and a butane lighter. Very fine career opportunity. If you should make it to your first co-op. I ’m sure your old boss at the golden arches would be ecstatic to have you back f i l ­ing soy-burgers and dealing w ith the sh eep , e r , customers.

Take the opportunity now to learn a foreign language. Now, I know many of your parents and relatives will be pushing you to do this to “ broaden your horizons.” There are more pressing reasons, though. Waiting for Chem n is too late.

Speaking about broadening your horizons: forget it. After five years here you’ll have sufficient technical competence, but no horizons left. You will, however, have an option on a wife/husband, 2 .3 kids, and a station wagon. Yeahh.

So by now you might be completely terrified and feel­ing that there’s no hope at all. D on’t W orry — you might even graduate and fmd a job. I know someone who actual­ly did fmd a job within three months o f graduation. Or you can just while away your days chewing tobacco and writing for The Triangle.

Happy trails!

outstanding academics and the other is football. Our administra­tion wants Drexel’to be known as a top academic university. MIT, Cal Tech, Drexel?? We don’t think so. When the wave of the top students from all over the US converges upon Drexel, we’ll be hiding in our brand-new concourse.

The other way is football. Restart it now. Take a look at the basketball team, and how much attendance went up after one win­ning season. School spirit is here, it just needs to be brought out. Basketball won’t do it as long as they are stuck in the middle of the nexl-to-worst league in all of Division 1-A, the ECC. Vill- anova is in the middle of attemp­ting to climb back up to respec­table football. We should follow a path similar to theirs.

Just bringing football back will raise school spirit right away. Other plans like the 12th Man at Texas A&M would help too. They have a group of 11 ordinary students who just play on kickoffs. Drexel could do this with a couple guys from each fraternity, and then they would go to the games too. Also, have the

games in a real stadium like Franklin Field, or build our own north of the Armory. They used to play at Drexel Field, and get 400 people per game. Who would want to go all the way out there for a game, and half the students don’t know where it is? Have the games at night, and make it like a party. Drexel students hate to miss a party.

The increase in school spirit would also increase contribu­tions. Ask a DU student today if he will give money to the telefund after he graduates, and you will receive a hearty laugh. The students need something to rally around.

Money was the major problem. What’s the matter with some more debt? We all have loans, so we all are in debt too. A few cuts here and there is all that is need­ed to get Drexel’s name in the paper for something other than Gaither. Football leads to good publicity, which leads to more money. No problem, right? Give us a reason to stay at school on a weekend.

“ What!” you say? “ Sexual promiscuity running rampant at Drexel?” Aha! I’ll bet you didn’t know about that. I ’ll get back to that in just a second.

I wish I were a Penn student

E d w a rd H a rtn e tt

First let me write that it’s been quite a while since I ’ve written a column for The Triangle. I did write one last term, but that didn’t count; it was summer. So please excuse me if I ’m a little rusty.

The problem with writing a column is picking a topic. (No I haven’t forgotten the part about “ wild sex overruns the Drexel campus.” I’m getting to it, please bear with me.)

Let me just inject a quick note here about some staff changes here at your lovable school paper. You may have noticed that Mr. Coyne is no longer Editor-in- Chief; in fact, I am. This doesn’t mean that Mr. Coyne isn’t work­ing for the paper anymore. Oh no, it does not. In fact, he got prom oted up to G eneral Manager; he is now my boss (that’s why I ’m calling him mister). Chuck Browne is our new Managing Editor and he brings years of experience to the job, not only as former Editor of The Daily Pennsylvanian, but also as a writer for a reputable paper. The most startling thing about Chuck is that, before I met ^im , people usedi^to call him Charlie. Let me just introduce one more staff member before I get back to that “ wild and ram­bunctious sex” topic I was on before. D. Wanda Pagano is our

.new staff Occultist. D. Wanda also brings years of experience to the paper, not only as an oc­cultist, but also as a heavy psychedelic drug user and Bob Dylan fan.

Now back to that “ sweet days,

sultry nights” topic. As I was relating, the trouble with writing a colunm is finding a topic that people are interested in. I have found that sex is almost univer­sally interesting to the college stu­dent. Incidently, all those sex quotes came from rpy roommate, Enzo. He believes that, in a backlash to the AIDS scare, we are about to enter into a new era of public promiscuity (with, of course, only safe sex). So I would like to announce a contest. A prize of $50 will be awarded to the person who brings the best photo representing the new “ public promiscuity (safe sex on­ly)” theme. The winner will recieve the check from President Gaither at a special award dinner. Naturally color pictures are preferred and may be submitted at our office (or by mail) any time before the end of this term. The winner’s picture will appear in the last issue of the fall term. (That is, a picture of the winner; naturally if we could print the winning picture if wouldn’t be a very good example of “ public promiscuity (safe sex only).” (This is a family paper, after all.)

So that’s our contest. I’m a lit­tle sorry that I couldn’t go into a few examples of “ wanton pas­sions erupt in the classrooms and dorms,” (as Enzo would put it). But what kind of example would I be setting as Editor if I did that? If, however, any of you would like to discuss the matter per­sonally, I ’m usually in my office (9-3015) on Wednesdays from 4:00 to 7:30; if I ’m not there, I will be enjoying a beer in Carney’s. Feel free to stop by and chat. Or, as D. Wanda would say, “ Highway sixty-onnnne.”

Edward Hartnett is yet to be taken seriously by any members of The Triangle staff. I Wish I Were a Penn Student appears as sporadically as its author does.

Triangle Staff Writer

Hellraiser. Scary. Ohh, vei7 scary. Once upon a time in suburbia there was a naughty brother with entirely too much time on his hands. So he went searching for the ultimate thrill, rumored to be obtainable with the possesion of a certain ornate box. Upon finding said box, the naughty brother took it home and fiddled with it until he open­ed a gate to another dimension. Three (or was it four?) really neat creatures (Are they angels or demons? Actualy, the’re not really sure) pop in and are only to glad to give the naughty brother his wish, tearing him in­to hamburger in the process. Oh well.

But wait, there’s more. Enter the good brother, who looks suspiciously like the loony sniper from Clint Eastwood’s Dirty Harry. Enter also his at­

tractive but secretly naughty wife and his equally attractive but terribly nice daughter. They move back to the old homestead (where bad brother spent his declining days), proceed to clean up the rat feces and other­wise make the place presen­table. Quicker than you can say “ Home and G arden,” things start to get bloody. And naugh­ty-

So what do you expect o f Hellraiser, one of Clive Bar­ker’s (alleged to be England’s

, version of Stephen King) scary pieces o f intellectual popcorn? More twistedly humorous than horrifying, the plot seems to be a drastically edited version of the book. Not having read the book, though, I couldn’t swear to that presumption. However, the special effects are kind o f in­teresting. So, if there’s nothing better to do and you have a low threshhold of fear, Hellraiser might be worth your time.

U 2 — T h e U n f o r g e t t a b l e E x p e r i e n c e

by Jonathan HornO f The Triangle

W hat more can be said about U2. They’ve been featured in several m ajor magazines in the past three months. So who are these fellows from Dublin? Are they political, m oral, religous, dynamic, musical, or just con­cerned. I suppose they are all of these things, but most o f all they are a rock and roll band and a great one at that.

U2 is one of those rare groups that come in to the music scene only occasionally. They are not particularly attractive or sexual, neither flashy nor marketed. They are a band o f fiber and moral awareness. The words and music of U2 express the frustration that we all feel as members of an integrated socie­ty. The surface may reveal helplessness and sadness, but the undertones of their music reveal salvation and hope for personal awareness and peaceful survival.

The first time I had ever heard a U2 song was during a party I had attended while in high school. The song was “ Sunday Bloody Sunday.” At the time I remember thinking that the song had a very raw and unpolished sound. Even so, I liked it and

soon bought my first U2 album. Times have changed and so has the band. In the beginning U2 was much more open and con- traversial. The lyrics were politically aggressive, almost angry. Songs like “ New Years D ay,” “ Sunday Bloody Sun­day,” and “ Electric C o” open­ly spoke o f political indignities. Perhaps in an effort to curve in to mainstream standards, U2 has mellowed their cries o f in­justice. Their music has not lost its concerned edge or emotional drive, but it has lost its rebel­lious street tough nature.

The real point o f this article is to review U 2’s recent ap- pearence at JFK stadium. (I thought a little history would be nice.) The concert was fantastic. It was a musical as well as an emotional experience. The show opened with “ The Streets That Have No Nam e” which lead in­to, surprisingly enough, “ I Will Follow .” The stage was simple and mostly white with blue back lighting. The backdrop resembl­ed the album cover for Boy.

Bono walked on to the stage with.his arm dressed in a sling. He had recently dislocated his shoulder while performing in W ashington. Bono made it a point to annnounce, while slow­ly rubbing his shoulder, that he was a litde banged up but that

he was hoping it would warm up by the end of the show. Well banged up or not, his voice was in superior form and the sling failed to hinder his stalking stage show.

I hesitate in trying to describe this concert. U2 is a group that you must experience to fully ap­preciate. Their unity among themselves and the crowd is something which is not seen in many concerts and bands of this magnitude. The emotion ex­pressed in Bono’s voice and face is moving. It is this emotion that causes you, as a spectator, to empathize with their message. U2 is simply a special group of human beings that have the power to make you feel things that you w ould ord inarily ignore.

An added treat to this concert was the surprise appearence by Bruce Springsteen. Together, he and Bono sang an uplifting ver- sioutjofi.vStand By M e.”

The concert ended as all U2 concerts do. The band played “ Fourty” and then slowly left the stage one by one. The chants o f “ How long, to sing this song,” continued long after U2 had put down their instruments. As a participant and observer, it is an experience I will not forget.

SPA and The Daves...Some Fun!!by M arc A. SmithTriangle Staff Writer

Last Friday afternoon the Daves, one o f Philadelphia’s best local rock bands, played the Sunken Quad for the first of SPA ’s Fall band concerts. The Daves have been playing the Philadelphia area for almost two years with growing popularity — they can often be seen at the North Star Bar or at one o f the many Cabarets where crowds are quickly converted to Daves

fans. Friday’s concert was no exception, many students were overheard saying how they were surprise.d how good the Daves are.

While you may not have heard of the Daves, chances are that you will very soon. The Daves came to Philadelphia from Chicago to be a part of the growing music scene in the ci­ty and they have not been disap­pointed. They have released their first album, which was privately produced, and are

beginning lo get airplay on local stations. Their popularity is building as the Daves ceaseless­ly play local clubs and events. The Daves and their fans feel that it will only be a short time before they are signed to a ma­jo r record label.

It is hard to describe the brand of Rock & Roll the Daves play; it is more a mix of many brands. They play Heavy M etal, Blues, Reggae, Punk, Country, New W ave, Rock-a-billy and many

SPA and The Daves...Some Fun!!continued from page 10 Other forms of music, some­times mixed within one song. The common denominator is punchy upbeat music with a focus on fon. The band mem­bers don’t want to tie themselves down to a single classification but they describe themselves as a cross between Yes and the Sex Pistols, or at least they agree to the classification. The D ave’s motto is “ M usic is Fun!” and they live up to it.

The band doesn’t describe itself as political, but their songs do have a message. They are more of a “ social” band. Their songs are about the problems of living in a m odem world where overachievers work for BM W ’s (and anything else a Gold Amex card can buy), and about teenage lust, boring weekends, insecurity, and eveV\ b ig ’qiies- tions about surfing in a nuclear world and death. They do so in a su rp ris in g ly fresh sty le without cliche and with a great deal o f understanding. All this and you can dance to it!

A unique feature of the Dave’s live show is “ The Song Challenge” where the audience provides topics for a song and a style and rhythm. The Daves then create a song before the au­dience’s eyes and ears, often

' with hilarious results as when “ Punk W altz” was chosen. The Song Challenge serves a second

purpose, many of the ideas for new songs come from it, mak­ing the Daves very much a “ people’s band .”

The band has a theatrical feel to it, which is not surprising since the band formed from members o f a dram a group. Bekka Eaton, the band’s lead vocalist, is a former actress who brings much o f her knowledge o f drama to the stage. Using props, costumes and energetic dancing she enhances the mean­ing o f the b a n d ’s songs. Although she wants to continue to use costumes and props she wants to avoid making the band to theatrical, limiting it to sup­port o f the music.

Speaking to the band after the Drexel show, I got the impres­sion that the Daves really do en­joy what they are doing and like to work hard at it. They discuss­ed the problems bands face when they start to grow in popularity; the possibility of loosing touch with their goals and their audience when faced with professional “ packaging.” But the Daves seem to know what they want and how to get it. They want to continue to be an eclectic band that is fun to watch and good to listen to. They don 't seem about to be spoiled by the big time.

The Daves are “ on tour” in Virginia and South Carolina,

Finally, after over a year of waiting, the new Yes album Big Generator is here. It has been over four years since 90125', this album has been in the works for over two years. Rumours of production problems and record company disputes are now behind us as the finished product is now displayed at local record stores. I picked up one of the first copies on compact disc.

Was it worth the wait? W ell, no. As an album by itself, it’s not that bad, but as the new

album by Yes Big Generator is a big disappointment.

The main flaw of this record is that the songs are too weak. There are no powerful cuts like “ Owner o f a Lonely H eart” or Changes” from 90125. There is nothing even closfj. to the masterpieces of early Yes. I could even bring myself to say that most o f the cuts are pop trash. I would advise fans of the older Yes albums to keep your distance from this one.

On closer examination of the liner notes I find a possible reason for the poor quality of the music: almost all o f the writing

but have no fear, they will be returning in early October for another round of of dates in Philadelphia. For additional in­formation, call the Cabarets.

The Daves will be perform ­ing at the North Star Bar on Thursday, October 15th, the next day at the Ambler Cabaret, Saturday the 17th at J .C . Dobbs, 23 East Cabaret on Wednesday October 21st, and again at the North Star Bar on Thursday the 22nd.

After writing my first article about WKDU (Concerning this summer’s Band Bash), I found myself to be a wanted man. Wanted dead that is. Well I ’ve decided to divest myself o f the dark glases and bullet proof vest. In an attempt to redeem m yself in the eyes of W KDU, I ’ve decided to write a positive article about the station.

All kidding and sarcasm behind, WKDU truly deserves a “ pat on the back ,” for their latest effort. Starting approx­imately a month ago, WKDU began live broadcasts from the Memphis, located at 2121 Arch street. This Tuesday I decided to attend the event and check out the scene. I ’d like to publicly an­nounce that WKDU has been successful in making Tuesday nights interesting again.

The atmosphere of the M em­phis adds much to the attraction o f the event. The dance floor is large, and a good size bar and scattered seats and tables pro­vide places to sit and talk or have a drink. Mixed drink prices were a bit steep, but the beer price were competitive

with other clubs. (They also carry Dock Street beer for those that are fans.) The club is decorated with Egyptian para­phernalia which makes for an interesting and different setting.

I ’m sure by now your w o n d erin g ,“ W hat kind of music did they play. ” Well rest assured, WKDU provided one of the best mixes of dance music I have ever heard. Having become sick and tired of hear­ing the traditional pop and dance tunes that so many clubs play, it was refreshing to hear an alternative style of dance music.I sort o f did miss Jerry “ The Schmuck” Blavat making duck noises and singing along with the music.

In the future WKDU intends to continue their live broadcasts from the Memphis every Tues­day night. If the broadcasts con­tinue to be as successful as last nights broadcast, WKDU plans to present live music.

If your the type of person that enjoys carrying the weekend in to Tuesday night, or your just sick of the “ regular night out,” check out the Memphis. The music is lively, the people friendly, the women attractive, and the atmosphere, Egyptian,

H a m b u r g e r H i l l . . . .I f y o u a r e a b le , s a v e a p la c e f o r th e m

by Adam GeibelTriangle Staff Writer

Hamburger Hill is another film in the current Hollywood series riding the crest of the now ‘acceptable and m arketable’ Vietnam War. Quite simply, the powers that be in the entertain­ment industry have realized that Vietnam is now profitable. But behind their slobbering race for box office receipts are the in­dividuals with the real artistic inspiration and drive. In this case , they are in v ariab ly veterans of that war. As Oliver Stone (a former infantryman) exorcised his South East Asian ghost in Platoon, so too does Jim Carabatsos (another ‘grunt’) in Hamburger Hill.

The movie is similiar to the Korean W ar epic Pork Chop Hill, in that a smll group of American soldiers struggle with

the enemy for a piece o f real estate of dubious value. This is all the detail you’ll need or get to describe the plot, which in­ten tio n a lly s ta rs fo u rteen unknowns. These young actors, like the men they portray, quickly become anonymous, ^ c i a l boundaries, exaggerated in Platoon, disappear in Ham­burger Hill's mud. Yet there is no character distinction or au­dience identification. Like, who just got wasted? To their credit, the Hollywood squad received a two week crash course in in­fantry training and portray the mechanics o f that profession well. Beyond that, there is on­ly soaked tropic scenery, scar­red battlefields, lots o f pyro­technics and a blur o f ^ s - tration.

Hamburger Hill is anon­ymous, graphic and depressing. Other than illustrating the living

nightmare o f trying to dislodge an entrenched enemy force (who are on a mountain, well supplied and protected by torrential downpours), there isn’t much to reccommend this movie. There are some interesting points rais­ed concerning the cruelty in­flicted on returning veterans by their educated peers, the ‘Peace Loving’ protestors. However, that subject is better explored in Hanoi Hilton (available on videotape). The few who would appreciate Hamburger Hill know who they are. The rest o f the public would do better to send the $5.00 to the PHILA­DELPHIA VIETNAM MEM- O R L\L FUND.

Perhaps the most profound point illustrated in this movie was a poem that appeared at the end. It was authored by a Ma­jor Michael Davis O ’Donnell on 1 January, 1970. W hile attemp­

ting to rescue eight stranded soldiers, his heliocopter was shot down and he was declared Missing In Action 24 M arch, 1970.

I f you are able, save for them a place inside o f youand save one backward glance when you are leaving for the places they can no longer go.Be not ashamed to say you loved them, though you may or may not always have.Take what they have left and what they taught you with their dying arui keep it for your own.And in that timewhen men decide and feel safeto call the war insane,take one moment to embracethose gentle heroes,you left behind.

was done by Trevor Rabin and Tony Kaye. Jon Anderson and Chris Squire are given only lesser writing credits. They w ere tw o o f the grea test songwriters o f the seventies but apparently they haven’t been in­spired recently. Their veteran songwriting s l ^ s are niissed on this album.

One thing I will give to this album is the sound quality. It is fully digital and it sounds great on my compact disc player. But this one does not erase the fact that the music is just plain bad. The only song that shows pro­mise is “ Shoot High Aim Low” and p e rh ap s “ R hythm o f L ove.” Otherwise, the album could be classified as a little less than mildly entertaining. After I finish this review it may be a long while before I listen to this record again.

If you’re a Yes fan (as in a 90125 Yes fan), then you might enjoy this album simply because it’s new. At best Big Generator can be described as a weak copy o f 90125. I t’s hard to believe that so much talent can come up with so little. One final note: Anyone want to buy a slightly used compact disc?

T he Ascended Masters are not just people who happen to be on the

other side. They are extraordinary individuals who have spent many lives on earth, overcome their karma and ascended to God.

Now they want to help us. They come with teaching, prophecy, ancient wisdom, light, energy, mantras, and scientific techniques to help ourplanet and ourselves. Elizabeth Clare Prophet has been their Messenger since 1954. When the Age of Aquarius dawned, she was delivering their dictations to the new age movement. Long before it was fashionable to "connect," she was showing people their Higher Selves. Now she is stumping across America for Saint Germain's Coming Revolution in Higher Consciousness...

M o n d a y N i g h troot for people you have never heard of?

But all that ABC and the NFL want to know is whether or not people are watching the game. Chances are, the ratings for this Monday’s game will be great. It will be a kind of novelty watching these makeshift teams play. Some may be watching so they can count the number of players who are carried away on a stretcher, kind of like how people slow down to see bodies as they pass the scene of an accident.

The novelty will soon wear off and the NFL, as well as ABC, will suffer without Monday Night Football. The real players better come back soon; the whole American society depends on it.

Jim Bruno is the Sports Editor fo rV n t Triangle. His column will appear nearly every Friday.

The Women’s Tennis team has been on a roll recently. Since starting the season with a loss at Lehigh, the team has won its last three matches, all by wide margins. Drexel beat Towson State 8-1 at home, then travelled to West Chester and beat them 7-0. On Friday, the team beat E.C.C. rival Bucknell 7-2. The girls then made another im­pressive appearance as they finished third at the PAIAW Championships on Sunday. With their E .C.C. record at 2-1, this team has playoff potential.

Your right for

Monday NightD rexel Soccer s tro n g o n defense

A strange thing happened this week, which should have been week three of the NFL football season. Football fans were denied the ritual of watching ‘Monday Night Football.’ The world did not come to an end, and all hell did not break loose, but some may have thought it would.

Monday night football has become part of the autumn like Halloween, and leaves falling from trees. For the diehard foot­ball fans, Monday night caps off a long weekend of being glued to the tube for scores and highlights. Those who like to make an occa­sional wager look for Monday Night as their last chance to ex­tend their winnings, or recoup their losses.

The original concept of prime time professional football started in the early seventies. The NFL decided that Monday Night may be a good time, and ABC jumped

The Drexel Field Hockey team ran into some trouble l ^ t Tuesday. They lost a heart- breaker, 1-0, to a Villanova team that ranks 18th in the na­tion. Betsy Cooper went the distance and gave up only one goal, while making four saves. This put the Lady Dragons’ record at 1-3-2 (two ties) for the season. Renee Bucci was the leading goal scorer with three goals. Kay Plasha had two goals and an assist, and Dayna Shbmer had a goal and two assists. The girls have three home games this week with Bucknell here on Saturday, Lehigh here W ednesday, and Towson State arriving next Saturday.

The Men’s Cross Country Team hosts the Drexel Invita­tional this Saturday. The Belmont Plateau in Fairmount Park is the site for the race that will include many area colleges, including defending E .C .C . champs Bucknell. The Belmont Plateau is just off of the Montgolnery Ave. exit o f the Schuylkill Ex­pressway. Last week the Drexel team ran in the Trenton State In­vitational and fmished second place in an eight team field. Dave Silvia recorded a personal best and placed third overall. Greg Behrman and Chris Robitaille finished 11th and 12th, with Bart Wagner 17th and Brent Kyler 22nd.

at the chance to cover the games. Maybe ABC came up with the idea and persuaded the NFL to juggle its schedules to get Mon­day night games started. Besides, football is tailor-made for televi­sion. The stadiums are nothing more that enlarged T.V. studios with live audiences. Why not use this program during prime time?

ABC’s Monday Night Football became an instant ratings success and, although the ratings have slipped in recent years, the show/game remains popular. Bars and restaurants usually have specials on Monday nights. Many use the game as a time to relax with friends. Most of all, the game is a ‘Couch Potatoes’ heaven. ‘Couch Potatoes’ like to sprawl out in front of the tube for hours with their favorite beverage and snack foods.

So last week the NFL players went on strike. It’s amazing that the American society as we know it survived to T ues^y morning.I guess everyone did survive (at least I think so) and football will return this Monday night. That is the good news. The bad -news is you won’t recognize any of the players. While the real players players touch football on the picket lines, the NFL will field a group of misfits. Generic Foot­ball Fever — Catch It. At last check, the Eagles starting (Quarterback for this Sunday’s game against the Pseudo-Bears was nafned Guido Merkens (no * kidding, and he is one of the ex­perienced players). How can you

The Dragons Soccer team us­ed some hot goaltending and newcomer scoring to defeatE .C .C . rival Towson State 2-0 on September 26th. Keeper Dan McKendry recorded his third shutout o f the season as Drexel extended its record to 3-2 overall and 2-0 in league play.

F reshm an Steve K eppler scored the first and game win­ning goal in the first half. Daren Petroski, a transfer student who has fit in very well, scored the second goal. Drexel dominated the whole game as they took 18 shots on goal, as opposed the Tow son’s 8 shots.

W hen Towson State did at­tack, Dan McKendry was there to erase any errors by his defense. McKendry’s status was questionable before the game l^ a u s e o f an illness that kept him from practice the day before. Coach Johnson Bowie took a chance on playing Dan, and it payed off. Not only did M cKendry shut out the op­ponents, but he achieved a feet that few goalies even get to attempt.

Late in the second half, a Drexel player was called for a penalty in the Drexel penalty area. Towson State got a rare one—on—one penalty shot. McKendry guessed correctly and stopped the shot, to the delight o f the crowd. Earlier in the season, McKendry did the same thing, making him 2-0 on penalty shots this year. MofJt

goalies don’t even face two penalty shots in two seasons, let alone save either them.

Following the game, Coach Bowie had his normal raves about his goaltender. He added that stopping a penalty shot real­ly stops any momentum that the other team has built up. The defense played well, led by Gerry Frey, who had his best game o f the season according to the Coach. Defenseman Colin Deckles was again stuck m ark­ing the opposition’s leading scorer, and he again was quite successful.

The offense is also doing quite well, thank you. Not having M ike Serban back this year to do all the scoring was not as tough as first planned. This year, instead of one person scor­ing all o f the goals, the offense has been spread throughout a number o f players.

The next home test for D rex­el is Saturday, O ctober 10, against Delaware. As long as the defense stays tough and the offense keeps producing, this team should go far. As for McKendry, he must have an ‘S’ painted on his chest.

T he L ady D rag o n s v o lle y b a lle rs ro a s ted the Delaware Blue Hens on Tues­day, September 29th, Coming from behind, they fmished the match by winning the last three gam es ou t o f the fo u r played.The fmal statistics were: D elaw are first g am e-15-8, Drexel second game 15-10, Drexel third gam e-15-9, and Drexel fourth game 15-5.

Delaware showed great talent by working together and taking advantage o f their powerful front line, but despite their beginning lead, Drexel remain­ed in control and with the help o f their small but supportive crow d, they beat the Blue Hens with a score o f three to one.

One player that did excep­tionally well was number 16, Lucienne Baptiste. This middle blocker poured on the heat the whole game and with her com­bination of blocks and spikes, Delaware wasn’t able to defend themselves.

Volleyball Notes: Pam Grillo had 11 kills while freshman Chris Bull registered 10 kills... After her 24 assists against Delaware, Diane Schnepp leads the team with an average of 8.43 assists per gam e...
