“He

Spring Jam was weird.
After all, Drexel didn’t much
look like Drexel on Saturday
May 5. There *vere lots of people
outside having fun. It’s far from
normal for this school.
I had fun at Spring Jam, and
in the end that’s all that really
matters. CAB members can rest
peacefully knowing that they
entertained me for quite a while
on Saturday, but I am still won­
dering if maybe th a t’s not
enough.
I missed the first two bands,
Mr. Greengencs and Tribes.
Someone told me they were
pretty cool.
My day began when Strange
as Angels took the stage. They
sounded pretty good, but it’s
been my experience that anyone
can be good singing other peo­
ple’s songs.
It’s a personal gripe of mine.
They did well with them, mind
you — except for their molesta­
tion of Live’s “Lightning
Crashes,” which sounded down­
right awful.
While Strange as Angels was
paying trib ute to Bush and
Better Than Ezra, I took to the

Drexel security leads Chris Marshall away from the beer garden at Spring Jam 95 after his confrontation with Steve Martorano.

A physical confrontation at the beer gar­
den during Spring Jam 95 has led a Temple
student to file a private criminal complaint
against new U ndergraduate S tudent
Government Association President Steve
Martorano, who was working at the event
checking IDs.
At approximately 3:15 p.m. on Saturday
June 3, Drexel Security was notified of a fight
at the corner of 33rd and Arch Streets. At the
time, the area was closed for alcohol distrib­
ution as part of the Spring Jam.
In a Drexel Security report, Pinkerton
Security Manager Robert Hillard said he first
saw that a “white male was the pursuer of [a]
black male as the black male was continually
trying to move away from the white male.”
The white male was Martorano, and the
black male was C hristopher Marshall, a
Temple University mechanical engineering
student.
“I approached [Marshall] to check his
ID,” said Martorano. “Everyone in the beer
garden had to have their ID checked.”

Heath Derencin is relaxed; his
teammates are not.
It is nine o’clock on a hot and
sticky W ednesday night, and
they are getting ready to play the
Grey Wolves for the intramural
soccer championship at Buckley
Field. D erencin sits near the
sidelines, waiting for the game to
begin. The others warm up by
bom barding goalkeeper Mike
Schwind with shot after shot.
They call themselves Drexel
Track, and the name is neither
creative nor accurate — only
four of the players are from the
track team. They are confident,
and w ith good reason: th eir
record stands at an impressive
six wins, one loss.
They are also wary, once again
with good reason: their single
loss came at the hands of the
Grey Wolves, a team consisting
mostly of students from Turkey.
D erencin is a player. He
scored six goals in a single game
earlier in the season. He makes
passes to teammates who don’t
even know they’re open.
Forward John N oon is
intense, to say the least. By the
time the game is ready to start,
his head looks ready to explode.
John Noon hates many things.
Most of all, however, he hates to
lose.

games of Spring Jam. First, I
headed into the Arm ory for
some virtual reality experience.
My roommate Matt beat me in a
game of “Teradactyl.” He only
won by one kill, but he claims he
had me in sights the whole time.
I think he was lying.
There was no lying about the
beating I took in the American
G ladiator-like jo u stin g ring.
Matt whacked the crap out me
by pelting me with the oversized
Q-tip. I realized this when after
three seconds on the stand I was
lying on the ground with a sharp
pain in my skull.
So, in o rder to salvage my
bruised ego, I headed for the vel­
cro race course. After strapping
myself into the proper gear, I
took on some ten-year-olds and
beat the heck out of them. My
friend Chris tried to tie me up in
the course, but a huge piledriver
took care of him.
I skipped the other events at
the south end of 33rd Street —
the puke-at-will gyro and the
odd “T ram po line T h in g .”
(T h a t’s what the sign said, I
swear.)
After all the physical trauma, I

some hot dogs.
Apparently, Love Seed’s set
was cut short for one reason or
another. The lead singer, still
trying to fit another song in, was
run off stage by some sort of
official. No explanation was
given.
The Mighty Mighty Bosstones
took the stage at 7:30. I realized
this when I came running down
Arch Street at 7:35 to the tune of
“ Hell of a H a t.” It sounded
great, albeit way too early.
The fro n t of the stage was
packed, and the band was rock­
ing hard.
They tore through a blistering
“Howwhywuz, Howwhyam” and
a solid “Pictures To Prove It”
early on. They also pulled off a
rock hard “Someday I Suppose”
to the seeming delight of the
crowd.
T hro ugho ut their set, they
seemed to favor m aterial off
their latest album, Question The
Answers — “K inder W ords,”
“Stand O ff’ and the like. They
did mbc in “Simmer Down” and
“It C an’t H u rt,” bu t m uch of
their time was spend this side of
Don't Know How To Party. The
highlight o f the in tensity
spaw ned a b ru ta l version of
“Lights O u t,” which sent the
mosh pit raging.
The band was in top-notch
form, as usual. Lead singer Dicky
Barrett was growling away, while
the
h o rn s
of
D ennis
Brockenborough, Tim “Johnny
Vegas” Burton and Kevin Linear
and were as stellar as ever.
Guitarist Nate Albert laid down
the finest ska, reggae, punk and
all-out rock riffs available.
At about 8:20, Barrett brought
everything to an abrupt end. Yes,
they came ou t and blasted
through some great old-school
m aterial, like “Devil’s Night
O u t,” b u t they did not even
bother to finish off with “A Little
Bit Ugly.”
Everyone was confused — the
stage crew, the die-hard fans and
even a couple band members.
The song, the finale to every
single Bosstones show, is a mas­
terpiece of stage performance.
People jum p on stage. Barrett
jumps off stage. Everyone sings.
It’s beautiful.
Maybe it was the Love Seed
incident. Maybe it was the awful
security set-up, where security
guards and a gate separated
would-be stage divers and the
band.
Maybe it was because
B a rre tt’s M arlboros tasted
funny.
Maybe it was because the
band didn’t like the jackasses in
the pit who didn’t give a damn
about their music. Maybe it was
because B arrett and Johnny
Vegas thought Drexei was called
“Drexei College.”
Then again, maybe this just
w asn’t The M ighty M ighty
Bosstones’ kind of gig.
In the end, it was a good
Spring Jam. The daytime bands
were p retty cool. The games
were fun. The atmosphere was
neat.
And no m atter what, The
Bosstones were still pretty damn
good. But I still can’t help but
think how much better it could
have been.

Zero Reunion to be held in Sea Isle__________

door atmosphere at The Springfield. The Inn has an outside area
just off the boardwalk by the beach.

this year’s event, which will have wings, sandwiches and salad.
Entertainment will be provided throughout the evening by the

SunDragon
ready for race
The Student-built solar car is ready for
another competition — SunRayce 95,
Karen Ostrowski
Staff Writer
On June 20, Drexel’s solarpowered car, the SunDragon IV,
will com pete in Sunrayce 95,
North America’s largest solar car
race.
This cro ss-c o u n try race is
open to all qualifying solar cars
constructed by students from
universities across the United
States.
Sunrayce, sp o n so red by
G eneral M otors and the
D e p artm en t o f Energy, was
started in 1987 and is held bien­
nially.
This year, the 1,100-mile race
will sta rt in In d ian ap o lis,
Indiana, and will cross Illinois,
Missouri and Kansas to finish on
June 29 in Golden, Colorado.
A ccording to team leader
Walt Bednarz, the team is just
“trying to break the top 10” out
of approximately 40 entries. He
feels that the team would do bet­
ter if they “had more money to
spend on better equipment.” In
Sunrayce 93, Drexel Hnished
17th out of 34.
A ccording to D r. Kevin
Scoles, associate professor elec­
trical and computer engineering
and project c o o rd in a to r, the
SunDragon has been proven in
previous races to have a good
aerody nam ic
design
and
mechanical and electrical sys­
tems. The SunDragon’s reliabili­
ty and the team’s strategy will be
a key factors in the outcome of
the race.
The SunDragon is 19.2 feet
long, 6.6 feet wide, 3.3 feet high
and has a layer of solar cells on
its back. Its 500-pound frame is
supported by three m ountain
bike wheels.
The SunDragon contains a 10
h o rsep ow er b rush less m o to r
from Unique Mobility and 5.0
kW capacity b atte rie s from
PowerSonic.
The rechargeable batteries
store energy from the sun and
are needed when there is no t
enough energy available from
the solar cells. The SunDragon
can reach up to 80 miles an hour
using combined solar and bat­
tery power.
SunD ragon IV is the same
vehicle that raced in Sunrayce

been made to the car. In the past

Since the SunD ragon team
did not construct a new car this
year, it was difficult to raise
money from corporate sponsors
and individual donators, accord­
ing to Susiuine Rocheleau, devel­
opmental officer for the College
of Engineering.
F u n d raisin g has already
begun for SunDragon V which
will be designed and built for
Sunrayce 97. Corporate sponsors
an d in d iv id u a l d o n a to rs are
being contacted for co ntribu­
tions. (
As p a rt o f the fundraising
drive, solar cells can be spon­
sored for $25. The cells will be
added to the solar panel with the
names of the sponsors written
on it. The m oney will defray
costs as well as support the team.
The SunD ragon is a senior
design project for a majority of
the team members. For the oth­
ers, > ^o range from freshmen to
seniors, the SunDragon serves as
an extra-curricular activity.
A send-off for the team was

A little bit of tradition was
started on Friday, June 2, when
the Division for Student Life,
Spirit Cluster and USGA hosted
the first an n u a l “Pass It On
Day.”
The in au g u ra l event was
established to honor the current
juniors as they become seniors.
This year’s “Pass It On Day”
was h ighlighted by a contest
which yielded a $1,000 scholar­
ship to a contestant who success­
fully threw a computer disk into
a box on top of the Anthony J.
Drexel statue located at Market
Street.
Three participants successful­
ly got their disks into the box.
The scholarship winner was ran­
domly picked by Vice Provost
for E n ro llm en t M anagem ent
D onald Dickason. P re-junio r
Aaron Shantz will be the recipi­
ent of the first prize.
A barbecue similar to Grillin’n ’-C hillin and free beer also
accompanied the event, which
was attended by approximately
200 students.
Vice Provost for Student Life
Diana Hackney said, “It’s great
to see Drexel students attempt­
ing to bring school spirit back on
campus. I hope this becomes a
tradition that will grow and con­
nect the classes in a fun and
symbolic way.”
Newly-elected Junior Class
President Bill Kneass said that he
has already starte d th in k in g

This is the office of interna­
tional business and marketing
professor Mercia M. T. Grassi.
However, on July 1 Grassi will be
cleaning out her office and head­
ing into retirement.
Thirty-five years ago, Grassi
first stepped onto Drexel’s cam­
pus as a freshman retail manage­
ment major.
Awarded a bachelor’s degree
in 1956, Grassi received her
MBA in 1965 from the Drexel
Evening College. Since then, she
has served as a professor, admin­
istrator and active alumnae.
Grassi is • heading for
Barbados, where she will be able
focus her energies on her selfm ade business, C aribbean
Artists Today, LTD. Grassi creat­
ed this business from one of the
projects by D rexel’s I n te r­
national Forum, which she start­
ed in 1987.
The In te rn a tio n a l Forum
sponsors several seminars a year
to show high school students
different aspects of Drexel and to
inform students as well as alum­
ni about career opportunities.
Grassi said that the International
Forum gave Drexel world-wide
recognition and $1 million in
free press coverage.
For the last four years, the
forum has focused on the mar­
ket of Caribbean Artists. Grassi
has turned this into a U.S. com­
pany w ith a subsidiary in
Barbados.
Grassi will be working in the
creative center in Barbados the
majority of the time, although
she will be com ing back to
Philadelphia a few months out
of the year to work in her busi­
ness center.
Although Grassi is looking
forward to this career move, she
is sure she will miss the chal­
lenges that accompanied teach­
ing.
“For me, it’s the only job 1
ever had where I was challenged
everyday. Every quarter 1 was a
sergeant with new recruits and I
had to whip them into shape
within 11 weeks.”
Grassi emphasized that most
business today is conducted on
an international level. Therefore,
business concepts should be
taught from an international
perspective.
Pre-junior Tina Schumacher,
a former student of Grassi, stat­
ed that she “really opened my
eyes to the world view of things
and not just that of the U.S.”
Grassi’s career as a professor
did not stop at Drexel or even in
the U.S.
Grassi emphasized that travel
is her true love. In addition to
her own excursions abroad,
Grassi frequently took Drexel
students on trips.
According to Grassi, she was
able to place her students in co­
op positions all over the world.
Her final trip abroad with Drexel
students will be during the 30th
annual International Business
Seminar.
On June 18, Grassi, along
with a 17-person delegation, will
depart for Cuba. Students par­
ticipating in the seminar will
earn th ree credits. In 1968,
Grassi initiated this Universityaccredited program in order to
“pioneer hands-on-exposure to
em erging m arkets in the Far
East, Europe, Israel, Africa and
Latin America.”
As Grassi rem em bered her
time at Drexel she said, “My goal
has always been to tell students
about what I ’ve done and to
show them how they can use
common sense ... to move for­
ward.”

ing 22 feet over the walkway
between the Korman Center and
the corner of 33rd -and Market
Streets, the geodesic structure
known as the Tri-Span stood for
over a decade, until deteriora­
tion forced it to be torn down in
1991.
Immediately after it was tom
down, a senior design g roup
attempted to rebuild it but were
unsuccessful due to funding
problems.
Earlier this year a senior
design group, consisting of Eric
Staudt, Jack Kashishan and Joon
Pak, began to do research on
materials that would be cost effi­
cient enough to bring back what
many considered Drexel’s major
landmark.
However, due to a late start in
the project, the group was
unable to explore the possibility
of funding and constructing the
Tri-Span. The cost estimate was
$25,000.
The design proposed by this
year’s seniors is the same as the
original, bu t w ith d ifferen t
building materials to increase
the structure’s longevity. The
beams were to be m ade from
fiberglass carbon composite and
the joints from a carbon fiber
composite.
“The first T ri-S pan used
untreated wood, Miich is why it
lasted for such a short time. The
new m aterials we use should
ensure the structure lasts at least
100 years,” remarked structural
engineering professor Dr. Harry
Harris, who was faculty advisor
for the building of the original
Tri-Span.
Harris and Dr. Frank Ko, pro­
fessor o f materials engineering,
are Acuity advisors for the 1995
project.
This year’s group has passed
th eir m aterials research o n to
civil and architectural students
Max Speiljack, M ark Lee and
Tom Compo.
These students are currently
looking for seniors in the mate­
rials engineering and business
field to assist with construction
an d funding o f the new T riSpan. The group hopes to com­
plete c o n stru c tio n by sp ring
1996.

W ith the end of school year
comes the end of the careers of
many Drexel professors whose
lifetim e achievem ents have
greatly impacted the University.
T his year, Dr. R ichard
Woodring, a former vice presi­
dent and a tenured professor of
civil and architectural engineer­
ing, an d Dr. Pei “Petei-” C.
Chou, professor of mechanical
engineering and mechanics, will
retire after the spring term.
Dr. Woodring resigned as vice
president for student life in the
£all term of 1992. He returned to
teaching in the college of engi­
neering. He stepped dow n as
consequence o f an in te rn a l
shakeup among the University’s
top administrators.
Sources told The Triangle in
1992 that Woodring was asked
to resign after making comments
about the’University administra­
tion headed by then-President
Richard Breslin.
After resigning from his vice
presidency, W oodring became
director of the new engineering
cu rricu lu m p roject w hich
revised the experimental E4 pro­
gram to make its adoption college-wide possible. The result
was the basis for what is now
called the Drexel Curriculum —
the curriculum followed by all
engineering students starting
this year.
Before he became vice presi­
dent, Woodring was dean of the
college of engineering.
Dr. Chou, who joined Drexel
in 1953, is recognized as a strong
connection between research
an d g rad uate ed u c atio n . He
spearheaded Drexel’s implemen­
tation o f full-tim e advanceddegree programs in engineering,
including die doctoral program
in applied mechanics.
C hou found an d d irec ted
D rexel’s Wave P ro p ag a tio n
Research Center to lead faculty
and students pursuing research
in wave propagation, including
hypervelocity impact, explosivem etal in te ra c tio n , blast and
material response.
In stru m e n ta l in fo u n d in g
Drexel’s Center for Ballistics,
Chou is renowned in the area of
ballistics research. He is presi­
dent of Dyna East Corporation,
which researches the mechanics
o f jet p e n e tratio n , especially
against modem armors.
C hou’s achievement is also
recognized in the C hineseAmericari com m unity. He
helped sta rt the C hinese
Language Center in suburban
Philadelphia and the Association
of Chinese Schools to promote
Chinese language, heritage and
culture.
Bomb threat
College really does pay
ends in full ride
A student falsely accused of making a bomb
threat is now being offered a full scholarship.
A Study o f500,000 Pennsylvania residents

more in the 1980s,

After falsely accusing a Boston
high school student of phoning
in a bomb threat to a local hos­
pital, the New York telephone
company is offering to pay for
the student’s college tuition.
Less than 12 hours after the
bombing in Oklahoma City, a
Boston 911 operator reported
receiving a telephone call warn­
ing that a bomb would explyde
in 12 hours at Boston City
Hospital.
After tracking the call through
NYNEX, Boston’s phone service
provider, police quickly arrested
18-year-old Walter Ray Hill, a
junior at Cathedral High School,
in connection with the case.
Police were given Hill’s address
by a NYNEX employee, who told
them the phone call was traced
to a number at Hill’s residence.
When police went to Hill’s
apartm ent complex, they said
they talked to two women who
said they heard Hill speaking on
a portable phone the previous
night, a few minutes after mid­
night.
This coincided with the time
of the bomb threat, and police
re tu rn ed with a w arrant for
Hill’s arrest early the nejct morn­
ing.
Hill, who m ain tain ed his
innocence throughout his arrest,
was held in lieu of $20,000 bond
and spent two days in prison at
the Nashua Street Jail. His arrest
was publicized throughout the
city and touted by both Boston’s
mayor and police chief as an
example of how serious the city
would treat those who m ade
bomb threats.
NYNEX officials later realized
an employee had made an error
during the call tracing and had
given the wrong address.
They told police, who said
they arrested the wrong man,
and released Hill from prison
shortly after.
To help soften their mistake,
NYNEX officials offered to pay
for all of Hill’s college education.
“We offered this with no.condi­
tions associated with it, to pay
for his college tuition ... because
we feel badly about this,” James
Lehane, managing director for
NYNEX in Massachusetts, told
The Boston Globe.
Hill’s parents and attorney
have not indicated whether they
will accept NYNEX’s offer and
still are considering legal action
against the city and phone com­
pany.
Police say the original call
containing the bomb threat can
no longer be traced.
Hard work in college will pay
off later in life, or at least that’s
what your parents and academic
advisers tell you, right?
Well, a new study out of the
P ennsylvania In d e p e n d e n t
College and University Research
Center supports their claim.
The income gap between col­
lege and high school graduates
is growing, according to the
P ennsylvania study, an d in
today’s competitive job market,
the more education you have,
the better.
The study, which is based on
census examination of 500,000
P ennsylvania residents, says
th a t em ployees w ith college
degrees saw their incomes rise
five percent during the 1980s,
while th ose w ith advanced
degrees enjoyed a 20 percent
rise in an nual salaries. High
school graduates, on the other
hand, had their earnings decline
by 13 percent while high school
dropouts found their incomes
dropped by 11 percent.
“The odds of achieving or
retaining m iddle-class status
w ithout one or b oth spouses
earning a bachelor’s degree are
declining,” says the PICURC
study, which was funded by an
group of 80 private colleges and
universities. “Education is usu­
ally the determ ining factor in
terms of income level.”
The study also indicates that:
• In 1990, white m en were
167 percent more likely to have
a college degree than African
A m erican m en, up from 127
percent more likely in 1980.
• Fifty-five p erc e n t o f all

ed high school.
• Students from families with
incom es less th an $15,000
dropped out of high school four
times as often as those students
who came from families earning
$60,000.
• Children of college gradu­
ates are more likely to earn col­
lege degrees than children of
high school graduates, although
60 p e rcen t o f stu d e n ts from
each group attend at least some
college.

The Pennsylvania study con­
firm s d ata from a re p o rt
released last year by the U.S.
Census Bureau, which estimat­
ed salaries over a typical 43.5
year career.

People w ith p ro fessio n al
degrees, such as do ctors and
lawyers, earn an estim ated $3

“There is no doubt that the
higher the degree you have, the
more money you v^ll most like­
ly make,” says Greg Howard, a
sta tistic ia n at the C ensus

it is, and the job market becom­

is almost sure to continue.”
The Triangle«June 9, 1995 *7
USGA president confronted at Jam
FIGHT from page 1
Marshall refused to comply, and
Martorano refused to allow him
to enter the beer garden.
“The whole thing was
uncalled for,” Martorano added.
Marshall told The Triangle he
has filed a private criminal com­
p lain t against M artorano.
Among the charges are aggravat­
ed assault, racial harassment and
attempting to create a riot.
Marshall said his attorney is
also co n sidering adding Tau
Kappa Epsilon fraternity, Drexel
Security, Drexel University and
the City of Philadelphia to the
list of the defendants.
According to Marshall, he was
walking from the Black Expo at
the Civic Center and trying to go
through the break of the closed
area on Arch Street.
“ [M arto ran o ] grabbed my
arm and asked me for ID,” said
Marshall. “The guy had a beer
on his h an d ...
and [acted] like
he was drunk.”
Marshall said
he was not aware
that the area was
being cordoned
off for beer consumption.
Therefore he was
hesitant to show
his ID.
Marshall said
Martorano proceeded to call for
security and then continued to
assault him . M arshall alleged
that six or seven TKE brothers
joined M artorano to hold him
up and pin him against a wall
while he was trying to get away.
According to M arshall, the
attackers were “ignorant” for not
listening to his explanation.
“I ’m n o t used to being
attacked,” said Marshall, whose
permanent address is in the state
o f New York. “I am strong;
th a t’s why I m ade ou t o f it
[unharmed].”
He claimed that the incident
was “a racial incident because I
was surrounded by several hun­
dred w hite stu d e n ts ,” said
Marshall. "The only reason they
zeroed in on me was because I
was black.”
M artoran o said the allega­
tions of racism “are just utterly
ridiculous. I could have cared
less about his ra ce.” He also
denied holding a beer during the
incident.
Security officer H illard
reported that he attempted to get
betw een
M arshall
and
Martorano, but he got his glasses
knocked off. However, other
security officers were able to end
the struggle and move Marshall
away from the beer area to talk
to him.
Hillard said that at this time
Drexel student Charles Roberts,
along v^th two other black males
who w orked w ith M arshall,
“came over and began to agitate
the situation, trying to turn it
in to a ‘black against w h ite’
thing.”
Hillard report­
ed that the offi­
cers “tried to no
avail to downplay
the situ atio n in
explaining to Mr.
Marshall that he
should not have
push ed his way
through the cor­
yy
doned off area,”
which Drexel had
a permit for closure.
Marshall reportedly replied
th a t Arch S treet was public
property through which he had a
right of passage.
The P h ilad elp h ia police
advised Marshall to file a private
criminal complaint.
Speaking o f the charges
against him , M artorano said,
“T here are an overw helm ing
number of witnesses [supporting
me]. Drexel Security is in the
process o f taking nam es and
statements from them.”
Drexel Security attempted to
ask Marshall’s friend, Roberts,
for his ID. Roberts was quoted as
Martorano said
the allegations of
racism “arejust
utterly ridiculous.
I could have cared
less about his
race.

saying, “I d o n ’t have to show
you anything and I don’t have to
listen to you either.”
Dean of Students and USGA
advisor Jim Fitzpatrick said in
the report that he approached a
Drexel security officer to assist in
breaking up the altercation but
got no response from him.
According to their description
of duties, Drexel security guards
are not obligated to place them­
selves in h arm ful situations.
Their main responsibility is to
call for help.
The security report also com­
mented that some of the person­
nel checking the IDs were also
drinking beer.
The free beer was provided by
the Interfraternal Association,

Soccer champs play for love of game
SOCCER from page 1
them,” proclaims defender Jason
Sontheimer. Sontheimer’s high
school coach gave him a
“G olden Axe” at the te a m ’s
award banquet in honor of the
hatchet jobs he administered on
opposing players.
M att M cC ullough, Vince
Bredickas and Eric Larsen are
the other players at the game
tonight.
The gam e begins, and it
doesn’t take long for the action
to start. Derencin takes a pass
from McCullough, but his shot
is swallowed up by the Wolves’
keeper. A m inutes later, John
Noon fires a shot wide of the
goal.
Derencin soon gets open long,
however, and scores.
Offsides isn’t enforced in the
in tra m u ra l league, and the
Wolves are left to argue about
whose re sp o n sib ility it is to
defend cherry-pickers.
Drexel Track keeps pressing.
Noon misses another shot wide.
The Wolves have yet to attempt
a shot on goal.
An argument breaks out over
a rule dispute. The intram ural
office has a representative at the
game, and he keeps score and
time. He also does a good job of
letting the teams play. There are
no omnipotent referees in intra­
mural soccer — disputes are set­
tled the old fash ioned way:
yelling.
The fight only serves to fur­
ther fire up both teams. Noon
m isses a n o th e r shot, and the
Grey Wolves advance ,the ball
deep into Drexel Track’s territo­
ry. They lose the ball, and
Sontheimer lofts a 50-yard pass
that lands softly at the feet of
McCullough, who blasts the ball
into net.
D erencin strikes again
momentarily, scoring off a no­
look drop pass from Bredickas.
Drexel Track has a three-goal
lead, and the Grey Wolves have
yet to threaten.
But the W olves stick with
their game — advancing the ball
down the sidelines, and center­
ing, centering and centering the
ball.
There are no
omnipotent
referees in
intramural soccer
— disputes are
settled the old
fashioned way:
yelling.
And it finally pays off — they
score their first goal five seconds
before the half ends.
Schwind is furious at himself
for allowing the goal. “I should
have had it,” he says to no one in
particular.
The intramural championship
is n o t the W orld C up. Some
players are in the midst of tenthweek-of-the-term pressure, and
will be taking finals in a few
days. Others are on co-op, and
will be at work wearing a shirt
and tie in a few hours. And a few
are seniors, and they will be gone
forever in a few weeks.
Many students play intramur­
al sports to have fun and relax.
N one o f them are playing
tonight. These two teams are not
here to play or have fun, they are
here to win. Victory will bring
only satisfaction. Defeat will
bring misery.
The Wolves’ momentum car­
ries over into the second half.
They score quickly writh another
centering pass on a two-on-one
fast break.
Thirty seconds later, they fire
another shot but miss. Another
fast break oppurtunity arrises for
the Wolves, and only a great save
by Schwind keeps them from
tying the game.
It is less than five m inutes
into the second half, and Drexel
Track is on its heels. Sontheimer
shouts a one-word command to
his offense-minded teammates:
“Drop!”
There is a noticible increase in
defensive intensity. The Wolves’
attackers find themselves eating
artificial turf with increased reg­
ularity.
Several minutes pass, and nei­
ther team is able to score. Out of
the blue, Bredickas blasts a shot
from 30 yards out, and it slices
into the net.
The Wolves start pressing to
make up the two-goal deficit,
and their defense is stretched
thin.
N oon fires wide again, b u t

looking at Noon as though he’s
about to pass, he kicks the ball
backward with his heel. It rolls
through the keeper’s hands for
another goal.

ing to make it 6-2. They don’t

The Wolves congratulate the
champions. There is no celebra­
tion, however. Winning does not
com e as a su rp rise — it was
expected. John Noon, who fin­
ished without scoring, summed
up his feelings with ju s t two
words.
"We won.”

Out the door
Maybe the office of institutional advancement should
start hiring co-ops.
Besides the obvious benefit of having employees with an
inside understanding of Drexel and vested interest in its
future, Senior Vice Pr esident for Institutional
Advancement Barbara Spiro could spend less time hiring
and firing.
Then three weeks ago, when New Era collapsed with $6
million owed to the University, maybe Spiro, who heads
fundraising at Drexel, would have been able to scrape
together enough time to explain Drexel’s involvement with
the foundation. Instead, Spiro chose not to comment and
CEO Chuck Pennoni was left to explain Drexel’s position.
After only three months of service as director of alumni
relations in the office o f institutional advancem ent,
Thomas White was fired on May 31. His predecessor spent
only 13 months at that post. And in December, assistant
vice president for marketing Joseph McDonough submit­
ted his resignation after just two years o f service when his
budget was eliminated.
Presumably, White spent much of his time here planning
this year’s Blue and Gold Days Alumni Reunion Weekend.
While final figures are not in yet, initial indication is that
the weekend was similar in success to last year’s weekend,
with over 1,000 in attendance.
And McDonough did an excellent job of marketing the
University with his limited budget — his “Where do you
get off expecting a good job in this economy?” billboard
won the national Addy Award for outdoor advertising.
If these two were doing their jobs — and doing them well
— why eliminate them? T h e re ’s enough fat in the
University administration — people who aren’t doing their
jobs — that we should make the cuts there instead.

of old
Editor:
Returning to Drexel after 48
years, the first and only familiar
sight was two copies o f The
Triangle th at I fo u n d in
MacAlister Hail, where I came
for the Blue and Gold bnmch to
be honored as a Distinguished
Alumnus for work in my com­
munity. I attributed my success­
ful volunteer record to the many
activities in which I participated
at Drexel.
The Triangle had one major
and positive change; the sub­
stance is unrecognizable. Fortyeight years ago, they never called
it censorship, b u t we w ould
never attempt to criticize. Even
when our President Rea had to
be replaced, it was a mystery to
90 percent of our student body.
Much of our Triangle dealt with
student activities and the results
of our athletics events. We had
the Drexel “Triangle” symbol in
the masthead which you have
replaced with the Drexel
Dragon.
Finally I must note that at the
Blue and Gold brunch, I had an
o p p o rtu n ity to listen to the
achievements of those students
who won awards for their acade­
mic records, extra-curricular
services to the University and
service to the surrounding com­
munity. I was extremely proud
of those students.

For that reason, I would also like
to recognize your families and

I w ould like to th a n k the
Drexel community for helping
to m ake the U n ited States
Olympic World Team Wresding
Trials held this past weekend
(June 2-3) at Drexel a m ost
enjoyable success. A lthough
probably not as well-known on
our campus as this event was
across'the country, it was a real
showcase event for vyrtestling,
and m ore im p o rtan tly , for
Drexel. Close to 400 people were
exposed to our campus and our
facilities, and for all comments,
we were very well received for
this world-class event.
I would like the many people
who devoted their time to mak­
ing this*event a success. It was
truly a first-class Drexel event.

I am all in favor of critically
examining any administration,
especially one which has gotten
itself into deep debt while com­
mitting those who have no deci­
sion-making power — such as
students, present and future,
here at Drexel — to share in it. I
am also in favor of critical exam­
in atio n of services rendered,
such as teaching, administrative
services and so on. I think fair
and direct examination by the
customer base have a necessary
place in any business.
For a case in point, look at the
decision-making process used to
hire the new president of our
school. I know little about how it
happened and was surprised that
the
new p re sid e n t
was
announced so quickly. I wish the
Board and the others involved
had taken more time, as some
faculty have pointed out, in find­
ing the new president.
But what bothers me is the
sort of preemptive attacks made
on the new p resid en t, who
h a sn ’t even taken office yet,
made by some people both in
student and faculty organiza­
tions and publications, with little
basis for criticism. And to get
anyone with the experience that
Dr. Breslin had would have cost
the school too much, as his sev­
erance deal so aptly shows.
. So we have a new president
vydth only dean-level experience
at a smaller school than Drexel.
At least we found someone to
take the job — and experience
does not always mean good per­
formance, as Dr. Breslin’s inflat­
ed debt legacy shows. Plenty of
people have done well at jobs
they were “underqualified” for.
So before we all heave yet
another collective sigh (I can
heave those sighs with the best of
them ) about how “this place
sucks,” let’s not be too quick to
judge the new president before
we have seen him in action. Wait
a year — if he does not perform'*
well, then go ahead and start
kvetching about him. But let’s
give the poor guy a chance, OK?
You’d want it if you were in his
shoes.

Right wing militias are big news these
days, or at least were a few days ago. The
fear of gun-toting ultra conservative Rush
Limbaugh fans has worked its way into
our collective subconscience, at the very
least. After the bom bing in Oklahom a
City, M uslim fu n d a m e n talists were
thought to be the bombers. After all, those
M uslim s are all te rro ris ts who hate
America. But, then, it turned out to be
fu n d a m e n talists who claim to be
Christians. Of course, those darn rightwing fundamentalists have been just wait­
ing to take over the country all along. I
just knew it.
It sou nds fam iliar — co m m en tary
based upon religious view^joints and nar­
row-minded bigotry. Not all Muslims kill
those who don’t share their beliefs, though
with all the media news stories it becomes
rather difficult to rationally understand
this fact. Not all Christians listen to Rush
Limbaugh, own firearms, or are even fun­
damentalists. But, again, this is a rather
difficult issue to even consider.
Religious bigotry is, perhaps, even more
pervading than racism or sexism, though
not as easily noticed. Few people actually
talk about intimate beliefs at work or at
school. They easily tell other simple facts,
but religious issues are addressed in a
standoffish manner or
an overly callous one so
that those with differing
viewpoints are purpose­
ly left out of the conver­
sation.
Lack of communica­
tion leads to deep mis­
u n d ersta n d in g . M is­
understandings lie at
the ro o t of d isagree­
ment, especially among
those who do not make
an effort to realize what
their friends and acquaintances believe or
practice, or d o n ’t believe or practice.
People become easily branded as Jewish or
Catholic or Muslim or Hindu or whatev­
er, each following a prescribed set of mis­
understandings.
It is easy to exclude those who seem to
believe differently, to mock beliefs, and to
wrongly accuse. This only exposes igno­
rance and intolerance. Different becomes
bad and easily hated. False judgm ent
becomes a power tool of the foolish. i
These misunderstandings seem casual
enough in our seemingly non-violent
society. But their fruits find themselves at
the center of wars, such
as the cu rren t war
between the Bosnians
and the Serbs and a
handful of other con­
flicts.

Last week I was in the WKDU
office for the first time. I needed
them to announce one of my
events. The general manager was
nice, but he warned me that if I
came back and he wasn’t there,
some of the other people might
act a little strange towards me. I
was wearing a Woodstock t-shirt
and a Stussy baseball cap, and
I’m sure my straig h t, long,
blonde hair didn’t exactly help.
After that comment all I could
do was laugh at how much five
years can change a person.
X>ne of the few things that I
intended to do as a Drexel
student was to be a WKDU
DJ. The WKDU staff would
pro b a b ly look at m e as
fu n n y now as w hen I
walked in to a fra tern ity
house at summer orienta- tion with a Depeche Mode
1990 T-shirt on. But no one
theii even knew w hat
D epeche M ode was, or
cared. They saw a new stu­
dent, or should I say fresh meat.
But after I starte d w ritin g
columns for The Triangle, they
knew I was m uch m ore th an
that. When I came to Drexel, I
changed my unique alternative
image I had created for myself
back in high school. I have to
thank the people who gave me a
chance to break into the m ain­
stream and have the power to
influence an entire University.
But they are all gone now.
”The last five years have been
some of the m ost unique and
..^•fulfilling years that anyone can
image. I’ve seen, heard, or at
least w ritten a b o u t enough
things to viTite a couple seasons
of Melrose Place. What I haven’t
experienced, someone has prob­
ably m ade up a ru m o r about.
Drexel can be a great school, but
some people here have nothing
better to do than misjudge others
out of their ovm insecurity.
I was just looking at the pic­
tures I have from freshman year.
I still see a few people from
them , b u t m ost have either
transferred or are no longer my
friends. Actually, that’s probably
th e basis o f the U niversity ’s
problems. Low retention hurts
student morale more than any­
thing.
My freshman year was one of
the best years I ever had, despite
a few bitchy girls at our lunch
- table and some asshole guys who
th o u g h t they could throw
a ro u n d th e ir pow er to take
advantage of the freshmen. But
besides that, it was a blast. Then
everyone started to transfer or go
off on different co-op cycles. I’m
one look pro-Greek. So I volun­
tarily dropped rushing. Maybe
th a t’s why I try to cover the
Greeks in the paper. I never hid
the fact th at I was on The
Triangle. I probably would have
been an important asset to them.
But the battle wasn’t worth fight­
ing, and that dean left the next
year.
Then there’s Drexel’s female
“ Breakfast Club S yndrom e.”
This syndrome is when you get
to know som eone, then you
refuse to acknowledge their pres­
ence afterwards. This isn’t a per­
sonal knock on sororities, just
Drexel females in general. Tell
me why you can have a conver­
sation or a class vdth someone,
and a week later not even say hi.
In my case people will suddenly
remember my name if they need
an article written.
Speaking o f females, I
have also had some of the
worst luck in room m ates.
The ones I had sophomore
year were so bad th a t I
m oved in to a stud io in
Center City just to get away
from their cattiness. Specid
th an ks to anyone who
climbed those four flights of
steps to visit me.
The w orst of them was a
member of the Judicial Board. I
lost all faith in the J-Board when
I heard that.,
If The Triangle starts to do
some investigative reporting they
should take a good look at the JBoard. I have nothing against the
last and current chief justices;
they’re friends of mine. But peo­
ple are starting to get concerned.
The whole process ,is too secre­
tive. Get a law passed in
Harrisburg if you have to, but
get into those hearings.
I had my own experience with
the board when I was a news edi­
tor in my sophomore year. Our
then e d ito r-in -c h ie f Gary
Rosenzweig'was a big iijfluence
and mentor to me. (Don’t con­

surprised I didn’t tra;isfer.
I was recently asked why I
never pledged a sorority. When
sophom ore year started, I was
seriously considering it. The
problem was that I didn’t know
where to pledge. I knew people
from Drexel and even high
school in each one, and my aunt
was an alumni of another.
The second problem was a
rumor heard by our news editor
at the time, who was also in a
sorority. It seemed our former
dean o f Greek life irl 1991
thought that since I was on The
Triangle, I was some kind of
undercover spy.
I remind you that in the fall of
1991 all of our fraternities were
on suspension and The Triangle

an extra black darkness to the story.
Society represses this discussion or dis­
torts the real issues into ignorance.
At the same time there needs to be dia­
logue so that we all might fully understand
each other’s positions; there must not be
sim ple acceptance of all beliefs.
Conflicting viewpoints cannot simultane­
ously be valid. Tolerance and acceptance
are different things. 1 can fully disagree
with you without hating you or desiring to
kill you.
This must be the goal of our society.
Beliefs should not be hidden from the fab­
ric of our world, nor flaunted with trivial
slogans, but openly discussed and tolerat­
ed.
Clarence Darrow, the defense lawyer in
the infamous Scopes Monkey trial con­
cerning the discussion of evolution in the
classroom, once said, “You can only be
free if I can be free. I can only be free if
you are free.”
Belief must be defended as an impor­
tant freedom. And the scandalous might
not taint our views through television.

As the end of the fiscal year comes to an
end I would like to take the time to reflect
on Campus Activities Board’s last large
scale event of the year. A week ago the
University saw Spring Jam ’95, which
a ttem p ted to im prove on last year’s
attempts and expand the events present to
a grander scale.
Gracious, if not precocious weather
played a part in making the weekend
great. The larger part, however, involved
all of the behind-the-scenes effort that
went into making the Jam occur.
To begin with, great thank^go to the
students, whose dollars fuel student activi­
ties, and to SAFAC, for allocating, a large
enough budget to allow for such a grand
display.
The exiting USGA officers also deserve
credit for, whether intentionally or not,
allowing CAB the freedom to do what
needed to be done without stifling the
organization with regulations or crippling
its programming capacity.
At the heart of the activities were two
students — VVally Wormley, who chose
and organized the bands, and Irene
Betelman, who was the primary organizer
of the Spring Jam. Jodi Netzer created the
ad campaign and shirt design. Wally also’
assisted by developing several of the fullpage individual event ads that ran in The
Triangle.
A handful of other students, including
Jack Mundy, Dawn Warren and Michael
Karam, helped with
specific tasks and
events. Without these
few dedicated v o lu n ­
teers, the weekend
would never have
achieved the level that it
did.
Thanks also go to
The Triangle for being
so
responsive
to
updates in the progress
of the Spring Jam and
for presenting the information truthfully
and fairly.
Ironically, after everything appeared to
be ready, the largest source of apprehen­
sion was the weather, which was extremely
precarious. It has been said that to reap
great rewards you must often take great
risks. I feel it is important to point out
that if CAB had played it safe, Saturday’s
concert would have been at its rain loca­
tion inside of the Armory, complete with
its high humidity and poor acoustics. As it
turned out, Saturday’s weather was beau­
tiful. However, weather was also the tea*
son why the performance of the Mighty
Mighty Bosstones was moved up by a
half-hour (much to the chagrin o f ’the
Love Seed Mama Jump fans).
As it turned out, the decision allowed
the final performance to end on its own
15 m inutes before a
th u n d e rsto rm
and
accompanying torren­
tial downpour hit.
D uring all of this
and contrary to what
seems to be po p u lar
belief, the events did
not run themselves.
The Drexel University
Student Techs, directed
by Warren Fairbanks,
had the hefty job of set­
ting up and running the hardware at the
movie, concert, dance party, and comedy
performance.
c a b ’s biggest volunteer thanks go to
Alpha Phi Omega and Gamma Sigma
Sigma service organizations. Both of these
groups reliably provided desperately need­
ed m anpower all day Saturday. Tasks
ranged from concert security to cleaning
up the Armory, all done without com­
plaint. Other individual volunteers who
Ironically, after
everything appeared
to be ready, the
largest source of
apprehension was the
weather, which was
extremely precarious.
came forward were also greatly appreciat­
ed. Thanks to all of these people, I feel
confident that those who attended the
events had a good time.
In closing, I would point out that on
the heels of any success arc many people
who will step forward and take credit for
what occurred. When all was said and
done, though, it was the above people who
took the chances. Rest assured that had we
failed, the finger would have been pointed
before the weekend was out.
Based on the amount of resistance I
encountered pushing through contracts
for the Hip Hop Dance Party and Jackie
“The Jokeman” Martling, it was a small
miracle that these events occurred.
In the end, it was my duly to assume
responsibility for all of the events, whether
they succeeded or failed. Considering the
hundreds of students who turned out for
Jackie alone, I know that CAB made the
right decisions.
If you recognize one of the people who
made it all happen, I encourage you to
give them a quick smile and a “thank
you.” They invested their time and energy
into making Spring Jam ’95 the best event
possible, and were not willing to settle for
anything less.

Campus Activities Board.

Note: This is Dave's last week
doing the Horoscopes. Do not
fear, though, he has spent the
last 2 0 ye a rs training his
apprentice, Eric k , and feels
that he will do a completely
bang-up job in the coming
months. Right now, in fact,
Eric is performing the ancient
horoscope-writing ritual of
Drinking Lots of Vodka.
Arles (Mar. 21-Apr. 19): Rent
a ferret for the weekend. Treat
it with the some love and
affection as you would your
very own.
Taurus (Apr. 20-May 20): You
will have a nightmare that you
go to the Triangle party and
you ore the only one wearing
pants. Luckily, it was only a
dream and there is still plenty
of time to take them off before
Sunday.
Gemini (May 21-June 21):
Studying for finals is putting
you under a lot of stress and
your roommate is really getting
on your nerves. There is one
way to solve both problems.
M ake sure it looks like an
accident.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): The
recent recall of Philip Morris
cigarettes is a good reason to
quit smoking. Lung cancer is
one thing, but defective filters
are unacceptable.
Leo (July 2 3-A ug. 22):
Wearing a Dr. Seuss shirt will
not only make you the life of
the party, but can also be
used to fend off the HiggledyPiggledy Food-ledywhump.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Put
"areola" as the answer to all
of the questions on your
Psychology final. It's a funny
word. Really. 1checked.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Take
a night job on the stun line at
the local slaughterhouse. At
least now you will get paid for
it.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21):
Put on a one-man show of
Oedipus: Moke sure to switch
hats at the right times, and
don't kill the wrong characters.
S a g i tt a r i u s (Nov. 22-Dec.
21): Your graduation plans
will chqnge dramatically when
you realize that you failed
your easiest class. Maybe you
should have shown up for at
least one of the four tests.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):
Your worst fear will come true
when you find yourself trapped
fn an elevator with on insur­
ance salesman. Defend your­
self by forcing him to watch
slides of your trip to Arkansas.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):
Your life will reach an all-time
low when you lose your [ucky
shorts in the wash.
Pisces (Feb. 19-M ar. 20):
Repent your sins. Take a long
pilg rim a g e to the sa cre d
Stapler of W endell the
Magnificent. Honor him with
gifts of blotters, ta p e dis­
pensers and Post-it Notes.
Tonight; Put the monkey to

Ai I bought my one-way ticket, I double-stepped up to track six and took a seat on the bench. I looked around and
noticed the people awaiting their trains.
A younger college student beside me sucked his cigarette dry and tossed it on the ground. I watched as it rolled around
in the wind, still trying to remain lit It came dangerously close to the edge o f the track but then suddenly stopped and
decided to change direction back towards the knapsack that laid beside my foot.
Crossing in front o f the bag, a middle-aged woman with curly black hair crushed the life from the butt and temporarily
stopped it’s progress. She was late for her train and really didn't care about my bag or the kid or the cigarette - she was
late.
A pigeon waddled up to the butt and pecked a little at it. A gk>wing light barely remained, and the pigeon didn’t look loo
hungry. The bird flew down ontoHhe track below to walk around with the other pigeons he knew.
I thought to myself how fiinny it was that the bird couM easily leap onto the track while everyone else wouldn’t dare go
near the edge. I’m sure some people thought about what would happen if they wouM jump, but I’m sure they figured it
was quite normal to ;iut think about i t What harm can it do?
The cigarette butt started to move again towards my bag. About two inches away from the lining, I saw the younger stu­
dent casually walk over and kick it onto the tracks below. The cigarette disappeared. I felt a connection to the kid. a sort
o f admiratkin that he would have enough respect to not let my bookbag ignite. He disappeared, too, as he jumped onto
his tra ia
1 was alone on the bench and still had another ten minutes until my train came. An oMer businessman u t down to my
right: I moved my bag over to my left side. As he nervously watched the fk>or, a skinny man with a beard, wearing a blue
t-shirt and army panu carrying a huge bag. appeared from the entrance stepway and waddled over towards our bench.
Something was wrong with him. As he walkeid, he murmured and sounded a little sk>w. He plopped his bag down and
talked to some woman sitting behind us. I think the conversation had something jto do with what train he was going to
catch.
Regrettably, he came around to our side, thankfully on the side of the busineuman.
He introduced himself to the man, “I’m George Walters. What’s your name?”
“My name’s Greg.” replied the suited man.
“Hey, I’m going to Nashville! Can you believe it?” George confided.
“That’s nice.” the man courteously responded.
"Yeah, yeah, I know. I’m trying to get away. I didn’t connect too well with people. I’m going to Nashville.” said George.
The man nodded and looked around like he dkln’t mind. I knew he did.
“Hey, Hey. wanna know something^ Huh?” the slow man surted to get quiet.
“What?" the businessman wondered if he should’ve answered.
“See that black woman over there across the tracks? Do you know what I mean? Do you see her? The second one. Do you
see her?” George talked like he kept a secret But he was quite loud.
“Yes, I do.” the yuppie replied.
“Well, I’d do her. Yessiree, I’d definitely do her. She is fee-ine. Know what I mean, buddy?" said George.
The businessman nodded. He twitched like he was nervous. I started to feel the same way. I didn’t want to deal with
George. I opened my bag and grabbed a paper and began to read. I had already read this paper, but I guess I felt the need
to read it again - maybe I had missed something.
George sUrted talking about something to do with Nashville and his airline ticket. 1 really didn’t care. I glanced around
the station and looked at the black girl across the tracks. I didn’t think she was pretty at all. Chubby and homely, she was
hardly what I would consider “doable”. But. I figured George didn’t really care, either. I glanced farther down that same
side and noticed an extremely obese white woman. She wore black, had black luggage, and drank a Coke. I figured she
was bitter at the world. After all, she physically looked upset. Bodies are a reflection of the soul, right?
“I think those airlines are gonna have a problem with me. I don't have a lot of money, you know? I think there's gonna
be a problem. Know what I mean?” George bothered the businessman again.
“No, I really don’t know what you mean.” the tired businessman was sick of acting. He looked at his watch. I had seen
him do this just a few seconds ago. Maybe he forgot what he had seen.
“Well, see, when I get nervous, 1 have these seizures. Ya know, seizures. 1 black out. Ya know?” George sadly spoke, nor­
mally for the first time.
The businessman didn’t reply. He was done caring. 1 got up and grabbed my bag and headed for the tracks. My train was
finally coming.
Hey folks, life ain't funny all the time...see ya'II next spring.
Don’t throw
your cash
away!

What can I say? Call me narrow-mindedi, but I prefer listen­

and entertaining.
Garbed in black and sporting
a hairdo reminiscent of a bird’s
nest, M arianne F aithfull’s A
Secret Life is more performance
art than music. D is for deep and
T is for twisted. Unfortunately,
the them es o f h e r songs are
about as uplifting as a funeral
shroud. Combined with the fact
th at she so u n d s like a cross
between Marilena Dieterich and
Katherine; Hepburn, it might be
a good thing that we are unable
to see h^r. O r b etter yet you
could call it about as entertain­
ing as a bad stomach cramp.
The niusic is primarily run­

itself while mid-life crisis themes
are expanded upon. However, I
did find <|>ne song so jaded that I
took a liking to its message. “The
Wedding” is about the full cycle
of marriage with divorce thrown
in and the irony of being buried
next to your estranged mate.
Personally, I think Marianne has
eaten too many pieces of burnt
toast in her lifp and it is starting
to form acid in her stomach. Or
at the very least she has become
sour.
The rest of/the songs read like
the N ational In q u ire r with
themes of alcoholism, cheating

A touring band must have its
favorite places to play, and the
Bosstones are no exception. The
band pilefers club shows over
large evcjnts, and a glaring exam­
ple of this is last year’s Armory
show, “t h e Armory was a little
strange, t admits Barrett. “All of
the m ilitary stuff m ade for a
strange kind of aura.”
Guitarist Nate Albert wasn’t
pleased about the possibility of
Saturday’s show being in the
A rm ory, either. “ I’d be
bummed. I’m sure,” said Albert,
agreeing with Barrett’s assess­
ment.
Not that the Armory show has
clouded the band’s opinion of
our fine city. “Philly’s always
been great to us,” said Barrett.
*
And since t|ie Bosstone’s last two
area club Appearances sold out
quickly,, we’ll take his word for
it.
The band looks forward to
being on the road, which comes
as no surprise considering their
reputation as a great live band.
And although their element is a
hot, sweaty place like the
Trocadero, Barrett did say they’d
“have to get ^sed to outdoor^
shows.”

The Bosstones’ success, their
rise from local Boston favorites
to m ajor-label stars to

rock-’n ’-roll fairy tale. But Ben
Carr keeps it all in perspective.

On Friday, June 2, W hite
Zombie brought their brand of
head-banging, devil-worshipping death metal to a sold-out
crowd at the Tower Theater.
The M elvins lead off with
some pretty groovy thum ping
music — but that d id n ’t last
long. It soon deteriorated into
slow, plodding ballads (?) of the
kind that Soundgarden does so
well (sarcasm), while the audi­
ence booed them. I don’t know
if they were punishing the audi­
ence for not liking an opening
band — like that never happens
— or what, but it really sucked.
The last song, in fact, took at
least 20 minutes to end. Twenty
m in u tes o f slow, m eth odic
drum beats and a sustained bass
note. The guitarist/lead singer
even left the stage after a few
m inutes. I guess he c o u ld n 't
even take it.
A ctually, after a w hile, I
started to hear a p re tty cool
sound. 1 d id n ’t know what it
was — a h ith e rto u n h ea rd
sound sample? But then I real­
ized it was the sound of h u n ­
dreds of people snoring in uni­
son. I was thinking about buy­
ing the Melvins’ album before,
but th ere’s no way in hell I’d
ever touch anything o f theirs
again.

was a welcome relief from the
mind-numbing boredom of the
Melvins. The Reverend carries a

the bass.
When the lights went down,
signaling that the roadies were
done settin g up for W hite
Zombie, the only sound to be
heard was the opening m ono­
logue from Plan N ine From
Outer Space. T hen cam e the
now-familiar “Perhaps you had
better start from the beginning,”
to blow the show wide open.
I saw White Zombie perform
two w inters ago at the same
location, and I was just blown
away by this show. Somewhere
in the intervening year and a
half they acquired a budget and
knew what to do with it.
Behind the band, on the wail,
there was a large movie screen
and throughout the concert it
displayed clips from old cult
movies. Everything from Faster
Pussycat, Kill! Kill! (where they
got most of their samples for La
Sexorcisto) to their namesake,
White Zombie, with Bela Lugosi.
As one song ended, though,
the screen showed just a naked
woman, breasts jiggling (wrig­
gling?). I lost it, it was so funny.
Last year, Rob Zombie had a
cast on his leg and had to rest
part way through the set. This
year, I was happy to see no cast.
Rob, along w ith J. and Sean,
jumped and danced around the
stage like there was no tom or­
row.
The first three songs of the set
were the first three tracks off the
new album, but after that they
mbced it up.
They constantly cite Black
Sabbath as one of their foremost
in flu ences and, in fact have
appeared on a tribute album. So,
just like the other concert, they

Do you have a problem with

Brutal Juice is that from all

you would think they’re a death

For years, you have read Chad
C o rn ’s reviews o f countless
bands in The Triangle. But what
you m ight not have known is
that Chad sings lead in a band
called Potter’s Field. Now, since
they have come out with an EP,
Blame It on the Furniture, it’s his
turn to get thumbed. Bend over,
rover.
But first, a quick detour.
W hen I first m oved dow n
here around three years ago, I
thought WDRE was the coolest
thing since Pez. Hey, where I
used to live (Indiana, Pa. — lUP
country) I was forced to listen to
really crappy hick stations that
co nsidered Amy G rant h ard
rock. So, when I first heard the
alternative netw ork (as it was
called way back then), I thought
it was pretty cool in comparison.
But th en I discovered
WMMR. Things changed. I
to tally blew o ff WDRE and
dinged to 93.3 for around five
months. But then WMMR got
really goofy. They started playing
bands I never even wanted to say
I had heard of. Consequently,
I’ve been surfing for the last few
years, even stopping occasionally
at BlOl — shh, please don’t teU
anyone about that, I’m embar­
rassed.
Now I’m m igrating back to
WDRE, and with the addition of
th e N file (a slot th a t plays
unsigned bands, like P o tte r’s
Field) I think I’ll stay for a while.
Potter’s Field, you ask? Punk,
rock, a to u ch o f pop — you
name it, it’s in there. It’s sort of
like Ragu. They rem ind me of
the p u n k ban d 999. Y ou’ve
probably never heard o f them,
but they’re good, trust me.
Blame It on the Furniture has a
brilliant mix of experim ental
noise m ixed in w ith a great
melody. They have something
that will make them big — ener­
gy. Plus, they know what not to
do, right Chad?
I think Chad has come across
as m uch or even m ore crappy
music than I have doing reviews
here. His band’s learned three
basic rules to good m usic —
keep it simple, keep it moving,
keep it short. Following those
guidelines, this EP is great exam­
ple of what this band can do,
given support firom you.
But hey, if you don’t believe
me, just go out to ole Buckley
Green on Sunday afternoon and
listen for yourself. Since we’re
just a really swell paper, we’ll pay
for your ticket.
The thing is, no one outside
of Drexel will ever hear about
Potter’s Field unless you pick up
your phone and call WDRE to
request “Eliot,” the first single
off of Blame It On The Furniture.
It’s real simple to do, I think
even Drexel’s CS majors could
pull it off. But they would prob­
ably request it over the net
(www.underground.net).

I wish I had one of those cool
double speed buttons on my CD
player. That way, I might have
enjoyed the C harlie Sexton
Sextet’s new album, Under the
Wishing Tree.
But, as fate would have it, all I
have is fast forward, so I just
used it as much as I could. Hey,
I’m into funky, easy-listening
jazz, but I ’m not dead, m ind
you.
Music has to have movement,
a purpose. It should take you
from one feeling to another. But
Charlie doesn’t do that, he just
stays in second gear.
W hen songs are five, seven
and twelve m inutes long, you
tend to get a little tense waiting
for something to happen. Maybe
this album is destined for back­
ground music. Or, maybe it’s
meant for the ending of some
foreign film. Either way, I doubt
you would want to pay money
for it.
The cover art even sucks. It’s
some artistic representation of
the m eaning o f the album , I
think. But, sometimes a giant
hand is just a giant hand, I guess.
Possibly I might sound a little
negative on this CD. I d o n ’t
want you to think that I hate it
ju st because i t ’s slow and
u nm elodic. In fact, i t ’s very
melodic.
Truth is, I hate it solely based
on its speed. I can’t stand it. I
can’t take it when Floyd does it,
and I can’t take it when Charlie
does it.
I think the problem lies in the
lifestyles of these guys. I can pic­
ture them coming home from
recording this album and play­
ing a good game of Go Fish with
their kids and wife as their dog
wags its tail u n d ern eath the
table. Well, Mr. Sexton, my dog
ran away, I d o n ’t have a wife,
and I don’t think I have any kids.
I’m in college and my life’-s not
at all perfect.
I d o n ’t need some suicidal
song to get me through. I need a
throbbing, bass-kicking reflex
that I can feel in my nads.
So until you can provide me
with my music fix, don’t show
your face in this town again.
Better yet, do show up and do a
concert. I promise it won’t last
long. We have a way of dealing
with sucky bands, Philly style.
Just ask the Melvins.

I am one step closer to know­

No, my Heaven sounds, as
close as 1 can tell, like a bunch of
lava lamps, big and small and of
m any splendid colors, doing
their lava lamp thing, but doing
it audibly. Som etim es angels

and most of the heavenly spirits
wouldn’t even know the differ­

The com bination o f subtle
guitar effects, best described as
“spacew ater,” a M oog organ
which adds about three dimen­
sions to your listening experi­
ence, the soft, sweet female voic­
es and a slew of tiny samples and
effects make Stereolab’s swirly
sound one which, as the album
title implies, you might expect
Elroy Jetson to have playing in
the background while he sweet
talks a betty over some cosmic
cocktails. The songs almost seem
to be constructed for passive lis­
tening, allowing for the richly
textured layers to wash over a lis­
tener as one m u lti-faceted
sound, not multiple competing
voices.
Falling on the right ears,
Stereolab’s sound could give one

don ’t get out m uch, Stereolab
may even provide com panion­
ship, a shoulder to cry on, or a
first kiss. They’re funny that way:
Soothing like favorite socks,
stimulating like lollipops.
If your taste in music is “not
for everyone,” if you are a space
age bachelor, if you think run­
ning water sounds keen, or if you
are pathetically easily persuaded
to spend yo ur h ard earned
money, Stereolab has created one
more thing which can take up
your shelf space and occasionally
be used (kinda like toilet paper).

On Saturday, June 3, Drexel
U niversity was priveleged
enough to witness what a few
hundred thousand will pay $35
for this sum m er; a M ighty
Mighty Bosstones outdoor con­
cert.
Possibly the best-known ska
band in the country — though
Fishbone fans can put up a good
fight here — the Bosstones treat­
ed the University community to
an hour-long free show that can
be seen as a tune-up for their
l.ollapaooza set. That gig, an
opening slot for the likes of
Hole, Sinead O ’C onnor and
Sonic Youth, should clock in at
about 45 minutes to an hour and
feature what Drexel fans have
already experienced: a fierce,
energetic mix of tight horns,
throbbing guitar riffs and the
scratchy vocals of Dicky Barrett.
A ccording to B arrett, the
Bosstones are ready for the
Lollapalooza lifestyle. “It’ll be an
easy su m m er,” confessed the
vocalist.
Ben Carr, the only guy I can
think of whose sole job — bless
him — is to dance on stage,
agrees, “It’s going to be really
exciting. 1 feel blessed and
stunned ... we’re going to play
our asses off.”
Carr also has a more personal
take on the Lollapalooza thing.
“Our first show vyath this present
lineup happenned in 1991, and

back then Lollapalooza was in its
first year as well. Ever since then,
I’ve always wanted to play the
‘coolest tour’ around.”
The Bosstones hail from —
you guessed it — Boston, Mass.
Knovm far and vsride as a hotbed
of ska, the Boston scene has
spaw ned such bands as the
Allstonians, Bim Skala Bim and
Skavoovie. The ska community
there, as it is everywhere else, is a
tig h tly -k nit one. And i t ’s no
secret that in social circles such
as these, when one of their own
makes it big there’s a tendency
to sound the cry of “sold out.”
So what do the Bosstones think
of that?
“Many people in the ska com­
munity dismissed us,” said Carr,
“but others thanked us for keep­
ing ska alive.”
Barrett echoed Carr, adding,
“If they cared about us, they’d
wish us success. We’re just doing
something we’ve always done.”
