This past week, Drexel University’s division
of student affairs sponsored A .B .S .U .R .D !, A
Better Student Understanding of Responsible
Drinking. This program was instituted in order
to promote awareness of responsible drinking
among Drexel students.
A sparsely attended rally held Monday in the
Great Court of the Main Building launched this
three-day event and featured guest speakers
Howard Eskin (sports anchorman for WTAFTV) and Bill Bergey (former linebacker for the
Philadelphia Eagles). Both .speakers were in at­
tendance on behalf o f the Philadelphia Athletes
Against Drunk Driving.
Eskin related his own knowledge o f potential
hazards of alcohol abuse, reminding listeners that
“ Tm not here to preach," only to advise students
to “ stay in control, be wise, and be aw are."
Eskin cited examples o f alcohol abuse in sports
and viewed them as sobering realities, saying
“ I’ve seen players lose a d re a m ...’’
Eskin at one point stated “ you have to see it
[alcohol abuse] to realize how destructive it can
b e ,’’ but again reminded students of the imporconiinued on p a g e 4
co-op employer. In preparation
for this meeting, the students
were asked to complete the
following: a resume on the new
80 X 80 resume software, a pre­
registration form and the Co-op
Employment Summary (industry
report).
The Co-op Center sent a
follow-up letter to students on
February 24 to remind them of
their obligation to pre-register in
order to participate in the
Center’s Want Ads and employer
interview and selection process.
Three sets of Want Ads, listing
co-op positions for summer term,
will be published. Issue A of the
Want Ads will be published on
Thursday, March 24. Interview
request forms will be due on
Tuesday, March 29, by 3:00 p.m.
The resumes of students who
have not completed the pre­
registration process will not be
sent.

The new issue of the Co-op
Want Ads will be disseminated
soon, but, according to some co­
op officials, most of the students
eligible have not completed the
necessary requirements to take
part in the interviewing process.
In November, the Center for
Cooperative Education generated
a list of students who would be
returning to school in January
from co-op. In December 1987,
the Center sent a letter to all up­
perclassmen who were scheduled
to Stan a co-op cycle in the sum­
mer term. The letter detailed the
steps these upperclassmen were
to complete to pre-register and
prepare for their next co-op
cycle.
Each upperclassman was re­
quested to schedule an appoint­
ment with his coordinator, that is,
the company contact for their last
coniinuea on page 4

“ Date rdpe is a national
epidemic—it happens here and we
know it happens h ere ,’’ said
Mark Blaweiss, Assoc. Dean of
S tu d en ts and D ire c to r o f
Freshman Center. “ Everyone has
either seen it, done it, or heard
about it happening on their
cam pus.”
T o in fo rm and ed u c ate
students, a workshop and a film,
depicting a simulated date rape
and an account from an actual
victim, have been designed to in­
itiate discussions about attitudes
and feelings on date rape.
The film is the center of the
workshop, used to show scenes
sim u latin g a ra p e , and is
periodically stopped to allow
group leaders to ask for com­
ments or opinions about the con­
duct o f the actors in the film.
Ways to avoid and possibly pre­
vent date rape are stressed by
watching the film and pointing
out mistakes made by the students
in the film.
W omen, and especially men,
are encouraged to participate in
order to hear both sides o f the
. issue, and to help men and
women understand the pain
associated date rape, Blaweiss
said. The pain may be so great
that it can take over a year of
counseling in order to for victims
to rebuild and continue their
lives.

The Drexel Financial Manage­
ment Association, in an effort to
better serve the Drexel students
interested in investing their wages
after they graduate and begin ear­
ning a salary, sponsored a speech
last Wednesday by M r. Gie
Liem, President o f the real estate
firm Growth Properties. Liem
spoke on “ The Use o f Financial
Analysis, Techniques in Real
E state,” last W ednesday.
Growth Properties was started
in 1980 by M r. Liem and three
o f his frieiids. They have been
responsible for putting together
such real estate investments as the
Lit Brothers building, which was
bought 'Miterally the day before
it was scheduled for demolition”
Liem recalled. Grow th Proper­
ties’ most recent Venture is the
new Quality Inn at Penn’s Lan­
ding. Liem feels that a niche for
a new hotel was created when two
hotels in center city closed, tak­
tance rape is that the attacker is
known and trusted by the victim.
The anger usually felt after such
violations is replaced by guilt,
fear o f dating again, loss o f
motivation, and the scarring caus­
ed by a trust being violently
broken.
“ It’s not the w om an’s respon­
sibility to control the guy’s hor­
m ones,’’ said Deborah Wright,
Director o f Special Programs,
referring the tendency for some
to blame the female for leading on
her date and allowing the rape to
happen. By law, a woman only
has to say no. However, some
women in the workshop held the
viewpoint that the actress in the
film should have done more to
stop her date.
Dispelling myths and distor­
continued on page 3
apartment in tears. The other half
of the movie concerns a girl who
recounts how she ieit after being
raped by student friends offcampus.
The workshop has been offered
in Creese Student Center, at the
residential Towers, and at several
o f the fraternity houses to try to
reach students.
According to Blaweiss, the best
places to conduct the workshop
are in “ living rooms o r dorms,
where people live’’ so members
are more comfortable and willing
to participate.
Under the direction of the Dean
of Smdents’ Office, several Drex­
el students are conducting a
survey similar to those distributed
across the country.
It all begins on March 14,,
m e e tin g
ing approximately 2,000 hotel
rooms with them.
Liem said that “ achieving an
acceptable rate o f return for an
acceptable risk” are the most im­
portant factors to manage when
thinking about investing in real
estate.
The four types o f real estate
projects are: land development
(purchase land to subdivide),
residential (rental apartments,
condos, houses/ town houses),
commerical (office buildings, and
retail shopping malls), industrial
(warehouses and what is called
flex S(:^e), and the hospitality industry‘(ho«els/motels, resorts, life
care, and time share).
Flex space is a hybrid of
warehouses and office buildings.
To realize returns one should try
to add value to property or
capitalize on “ niches” in the
market place. To add value, one
can build on land or upgrade a
building. By capitalizing on a
niche, Liem gave the example of
tions about rape is the focus of the
workshop, presenting such facts
that acquaintance rapes account
for over 50% o f rapes, and that
60%
o f all
ra p e s
are
premeditated, according to na­
tional surveys. In fact, most date
rapes occur on the fourth o r fifth
date, Blaweiss said.
“ Rape is not a crim e o f pas­
sion, but o f pow er,’’ Blaweiss
said re fe rrin g to a n o th e r
misconception. Rapists try to
co n tro l th e ir v ic tim s and
demonstrate their superiority and
power over them.
The video, designed by Barry
Burkhart of Auburn University,
depicts a female college student
as another student asks her out,
returns to his apartment, and then
she eventually returns to her own

(This is the last installment in
a continuing series on trash-tosteam .)
Appendix A: The Recycling
Debate
Recycling is the process in
which waste materials are used to
manufacture new m aterials.
While such a process would seem
ideal, there is one major problem:
finding a place to sell or even give
away the trash. This is clearly a
problem because, according to
Philadelphia Streets Department
engineer Bruce Gledhill, “ There
aren’t people out there .... will­
ing to buy it [the trash] right
now.” G l ^ i l l cites inexpensive
raw materials and insufficient de­
mand for recycled products as the
reasons for this problem.
Gledhill adds that proponents
of recycling react to this state­
ment by saying, “ If you do it
[recycle], and show good faith
that the stream will continue, then
the markets will develop.” While
he admits that there is truth to that
statement, he adds, “ the Sanita­
tion Department is required to
pick up trash. I can’t do it and
say, ‘I can’t pick it up today
because there is no market to take
it.’ You wouldn’t be too happy as
a homeowner if 1 told you that.
We can’t have a system that is
totally dependent on market
fluctuations.”
When Bill 1251A (the man­
dator)' recycling bill) was signed
into law. Riiladelphia joined New
York City, New Jersey, and other
northeastern states which are im­
plementing or planning major
recycling efforts. According to
Nancy VandenBerg, coordinator
of Markets for Recycled Pro­
ducts, “ If all these states become
successful, we can expect over­
supplies for specific materials.”
Bernard Newman, president of
Newman & Co., a I^iladelphia
paper-recycling mill, adds that,
“ Just because you have laws that
mandate recycling doesn’t mean
that new paper mills are going to
be built to use recycled paper.
Sooner or later there is going to
be an imbalance, and values of
paper will go down.”
Of course, in Philadelphia’s
case, it would still be cheaper to
give the paper away. Unfor­
tunately, b ^ause the wastepaper
market is usually the primary
target of recycling programs it
becomes easily glutted. This
makes it almost impossible to
even give the paper away. Much
of the wastepaper now collected
is exported to the Third Worid.
In fact, wastepaper is now the
leading export out of New York,
and it is a growing export for
western ports such as San Fran­
cisco and Seattle.
Considerably easier to dispose
of is the ubiquitous aluminum
can. Because of the expense of
mining bauxite, the main ingre­
dient in aluminum, companies
such as Alcoa are willing to buy
all waste aluminum.
One m aterial that has
historically been difficult to recy­
cle has been plastic. However, re­
cent developments have opened
new markets for the recycling of
clear plastic PET bottles. St.
Judes P olym er In c ., o f
Frackville, Pa., uses these bottles
to manufacture tool handles,
distributor caps, packaging
materials, and even car bumpers.
Hoechts-Celanese Inc., a global
textile manufacturer, u s* recycl­
ed PET bottles to make
Geofabric, a landscaping material
used as a protector against ero­
sion. Another company, Wellman
Industries of Johnsville, S.C.,
recycles the plastic for use as in­
sulation fibers in homes and even
sleeping bags.
The most troubled of the
recyclable materials is glass. This
is mostly because o f the
diminishing market share of glass
due to competition from the
plastics industry rather than the
difficulty of recycling glass. The
glass industry now views recycl­
ing as a means of regaining a
competitive advantage.
One of the best ways to ensure
markets for recyclable wastes is
to stimulate demand for recycled
products. One of the goals of
Philadelphia’s recycling program
is to improve purchasing of
recycled materials. Hopefully,
this will be enough to open up
future markets for Philadelphia’s
trash. After all, when asked what
would be done if the trash could
not be sold for recycling, Gledhill
responded, “ I don’t think that’s
been answered yet.” Hopefully
we won’t need an answer.
Appendix B: What New York
Has Done
New York City faced trash pro­
blems very similar to those of
Philadelphia, albeit on a much
larger scale. In December of
1984, New York City boldly
moved ahead by approving the
first five of eight trash-to-steam
plants. These plants, expected to
open in 1991, would be erected
in each of the city's five boroughs
at a cost of approximately $2
billion.
New York City Mayor Ed
Koch hailed the vote as, “ one of
the most important matters that
this administration has been in­
volved with over the last seven
years because it truly affects the
future of the city.”
New York’s political battle was
similar to the one in Philadelphia.

the Quality Inn. The Quality Inn
at Penn’s landing was built
because Growth Properties found
a niche or a need for more hotel
space that was less expensive that
Holiday Inn but equal in quality.
To measure the return, one
should consider how long before
one can get his initial investment
back and the opportunity cost of
that investment.
“ Managing risk is the name of
the game,” Liem emphasized.
The security of the investment
is one of the greatest concerns.
No investor wants take a larger
than necessary risk. Growth Pro­
perties must take a risk in the
form of guarantees for the finan­
cial liabilities. If the jo b’s cost
goes over the estimated cost,
Growth Properties is ultimately
responsible. This is the reason the
banks often ask for a guarantee
from the developer to protect
themselves from cost overruns.
But Liem cautioned that these
guara.-tees are often made on on­
ly the architect's blueprints,
which are often incomplete.
When this case occurs. Growth
Properties would be responsible
for any over runs. Liem caution­
ed against jumping into a project
before carefully inspecting the
property with experienced profes­
sionals.
Since the investors often put
only a small percentage of the
total cost of the project down and
the developer often needs to be
paid as work progresses, the pro­
blem of cash flow soon arises.
According to Liem, there are two
solutions: borrow from a bank or
beg for more money from the in­
vestors. This was difficult for
Growth Properties to do in the
'70’s when the prime rate was 21
percent. But at least these
variables
are
somewhat
controllable.
Other variables which are not
controllable are: the city’s zon­
ing, permits, regulations, and en­
vironmentalist findings. Zoning is
the way a city plans its boun­
daries. When there are no zoning
laws, such as in Houston, Texas,
the city may run into the problem
of having residential homes next
to $10 million high rises, thus,
there are no set boundaries for a
“ center city.’’
The ultim ate question to
answer when faced with all of the
above mentioned risks is, “ Are
the returns worth the risk?”
After the lecture, one student
posed the question, “ How did
Growth Properties get started?”
Growth Properties began by
associating itself with well-known
financial and legal firms. Growth
Properties began using Price-
Waterhouse for its accounting
needs and Morgan, Lewis and
Bockius as its legal firm. This lent
respectability to its name and
made it possible for them to gain
investor confidence. Their first
investment was St. Charles Cor­
ner in Old City. “ This project
was worth only $1.2 million
dollars. But that seemed like a lot
of money then. It takes a while to
get used to the large amounts of
money we [Growth Properties]
deal with.” remarked Liem.
Growth Properties has come a
long way since its first invest­
ment. The Quality Inn building
handled approximately $100
million, but Liem cautioned,
“ We usually stay in the range of
$10 million since we are more ef­
ficient and comfortable with this
range. The more money the pro­
ject is worth, the larger the risk.”
Liem has plans to expand on
the East Coast in the far future,
but for now said he only worries
about the near future.
The Drexel Financial Manage­
ment Association has plans to
host similar talks on other forms
of investment and invites anyone
interested to come. These talks
will be advertised in the lobby of
Mattheson Hall. One will be
presented every week on next
term.

continued from patie 2
The idea of building a trash-tosteam plant at the vacant
Brooklyn Navy Yard was first
proposea in 1978. and a familiar
outcry was heard from the
neighborhood. As part of a policy
of reasonableness, the Koch ad­
ministration provided a local
community group with $80,000
to hire consultants for a health
review and to travel to Chicago
to see an existing plant.
To smooth the political path.
the admmistration adopted a
“ share the pain" strategy to en­
sure that all boroughs would
shoulder the burden, and not just
one. The Sanitation Department
also initiated a S500.000 recycl­
ing program to please those
politicians demanding a recycling
alternative.
In addition to these conces­
sions, the Koch administration
also agreed to allow environmen­
tal groups to make resolution
changes that would delay a final
decision until after further review
by environmentalists.
The master stroke, however,
was when Koch politically
maneuvered the c it\’s Board of
Estimate, the executive body
responsible for approving major
contracts and land-use decisions.
He did this by offering additional
concessions beyond the recycling
plan and alternative site locations.
The final result was a six to five
vote in favor of the trash-to-steam
plants.

Samuel J. Parker, III, assistant
director of cooperative education,
estimated that 1600 to 1800
students were scheduled to begin
an industry cycle in the summer
quarter. Commenting on the
Center’s records as of this past
Tuesday, Parker said,“ As of this
morning, 24 students have
uploaded their resumes in the co­
op office system.” The deadline
for uploading a resume is March
25, the last Friday of the winter
term. A flyer from the Co-op
Center warns of the “ conse­
quences of late resume uploading:
1)Students may miss par­
ticipating in Issue ‘A’ of Want
Ads, which means that you will
miss out on at least
of the co­
op positions available.
2)Trying to upload your
resume near the end of the term
could result in long lines for
resume uploading. 3) Spelling
errors, formatting mistakes, etc.
may not be correctable near the
end of the term because of the
large volume of resumes.”
About one-quarter to one-half
of the students due to be on co-
op this summer have stopped in­
to the co-op ottice and started the
pre-registration process, accor­
ding to Parker. However, he was
concerned by the lack of
response. He said that if a student
planned on returning to a com­
pany where he had worked
previously, the coordinator for
that company will need to know
that. But, some of those 1800
students will not be going back to
the same company, and will need
to send many resumes, he said.
“ We sent out 19,928 resumes
last cycle. That's an average of 13
resumes per student. Right now.
we've got 24 resumes we could
send out. If everyone waits ’til
Monday, March 28 [to upload
their resumes], there’ll be a line
around the block!”
Theodore T. Schall, Jr., co-op
placement coordinator, agreed
with Parker.
‘It’s the uploading of resumes
that’s really falling behind,” he
said. Schall also foresaw long
lines forming to upload on March
28. “ Oh, that’ll be fun. They’d
better bring som e reading
material with them .”
says th e
The name ‘80 x 80 resume' is
descriptive, according to instruc­
tions prepared by the Co-op
Center, indicating a one-page for­
mat of 80 characters across and
80 lines down. The software
package is available at the
Fileserver in the Korman Center.
S.udents should bring a disk on
which to copy the software. In the
new system, resumes will be
transferred from the Macintosh to
Drexel’s mainframe computer.
They will then De reproduc^ and
mailed to tnose employers
designated on tne student’s inter­
view request form.
“ Students can change their
resume anytime,” Parker said,
“ They can come in and upload a
new resume every day if they
want.” But, in terms of the ap­
proaching deadlines, Parker add­
ed that students are now “ gear­
ing up for finals,” and that some
students will be out of town dur­
ing spring break.
Freshmen who are scheduled
for industry during that cycle
have been asked to schedule an
appointment with their advisor
between now and March 28.
They may upload their resumes

The right choice.
tance of remaining in control in
all situations, and not to lose sight
of the responsibility involved.
Bergey also stressed the impor­
tance of remaining in control, and
additionally advised students to
“ think of your health and your
ftiture, be openminded, and never
lose control.” Bergey reminisc­
ed about his college days, and
related a tragic alcohol-related in­
cident. He also cited a compell­
ing story about Jesse Owens,
whose father was an alcoholic and
came to realize the destruction he
was causing himself and his
fa m ily .
Parallel to this event, an infor­
mation fair was held in the Great
Court. Approximately a dozen
alcohol awareness organizations
such as Alcoholics Anonymous,
Alanon and others provided a
variety of information, posters,
and buttons to those in atten­
dance.
O ther
booths,
serving
“ mocktails” were set up in con­
junction with the information fair.
The A.B.S.U.R.D. committee
additionally sponsored a banner
contest held on Wednesday in the
Great Court. Banners were sup­
posed to depict an alcohol-related
theme or message relating to
responsible drinking. Top prizes
in the banner contest went to
several members of Special
Services.
Mark Blaweiss, associate dean
of students and organizer of the
activities, was generally pleased
by the outcom e o f the
A.B.S.U.R.D. events.
“ I believe it went well for our
very first try (the first being the
hardest), and we definitely plan
to make it a part of Drexel.”
Blaweiss hopes to sponsor the
same type event twice a year to
keep awareness levels high, and
possibly extend the days it will
last.

Jack L eer, assistant director.
C enter for Cooperative Education
offered his view on w hy up­
p e r c la s s m e n m ig h t n o t be
sc hedu ling ap p o in tm en ts: “ I
think that some o f them think that
th ey ’re ju st supposed to drop off
their industry reports, and d o n ’t
realize that there’s supposed to be
any sort o f interface or discus­
sio n ,” he said.
A ccording to Leer, the Center
b eg a n to c o n s id e r m a ilin g
postcard rem inders to students
w ho neglected to schedule an ap­
pointment. “ That would jog their
memory in a nice w ay, and we
may try it next tim e ,” he said.
“ Looking at it from a positive
view point, w e’re doing this for
the stu d en ts.”
L eer explained that the reason
the C enter needed to know which
students planned to return to the
same com pany w as so that coor­
dinators w ould know w hat posi­
tions m ight be available.
A d ria n L e v its k y , an u p ­
perclassm an, revealed the reason
he has not yet pre-registered.
“ I ’m so busy right now . I ’ll ju st
wait another w eek. I should have
done it; I procrastinate anyw ay.”
C oncurring w ith other coor­
dinators, Schall acknow ledged
that classes, and especially finals
w eek, keep students busy. “ I
know th e re ’s a lot o f pressure at
the end o f the t e r m ,” he
sa id ,“ but this is som ething [that
m ust be d o n e ].”
A nother upperclassm an, M ark
K lim p, exem plifies the student
tied up w ith schoolw ork. “ W ell,
I haven’t had the tim e. I ’m in the
process o f scheduling an appoint­
m ent fo r next w eek, though.
E arlier in the term , I put it off.
The m iddle o f the term got kind
o f crow ded, really busy, and now
I have five tests this w e e k .”
K lim p had been unfavorably
im pressed by his past experience
with the C enter as w ell. He
described his last co-op inter­
views. “ The week I was suppos­
ed to be on co-op, the Co-op
C enter called and said that this
com pany was interested in me. I
called them [that com pany] up
and told them that I heard that
they had been asking about me
through D re x el.” He then gave
his nam e, and was put on hold
while the receptionist w as verify­
ing the com pany’s interest in in­
terview ing him. “ She cam e back
and sa id ,‘W e d o n ’t even have
your resu m e .’ I ended up getting
the jo b , any w ay .”
G erald Roche, a pre-junior
who has started but not completed
pre-registration, said, “ I went in
to see my advisor the first w eek
[I returned to school]. I even did
the resume the first w e e k .” Not
finishing the pre-registration, in
his point o f view, w as a “ com ­
bination o f both being busy and

Letters to the Editor
C a m p u s b e a u tific a tio n n o w
Editor:
While flipping through some
issues this
weekend, I saw a headline which
caught my eye: Fraternity Crests
to be Removed. I [had] heard
something about this while I was
on my first co-op, but I never did
catch the details. I read on.
The crests referred to are the ones
fading on the sidewalk in front of
the Armory, along what was
commonly referred to as “ frater­
nity walk” . The article (dated
August 1, 1986) stated that the
area was to be sand blasted clean,
since it detracted from the cam­
pus appearance. The main in­
stigator of this (^ ra tio n . Major
Triangle back
William Bozzelli, head of the
103rd Engineers Battalion sta­
tioned in the Armory, was quoted
as saying that it “ looks like hell” .
The frats were prohibited from
repainting their letters, pending
their removal.
It’s over a year and a half later
now, and the paint is cracking and
chipping. The pictures are fading
away. If anyone seriously believ­
ed that they detracted from the
campus appearance then, they
make it look like a slum now. Not
only do they make the campus
look bad, they also give the frats
the appearance that no one cares.
So why doesn’t someone do
something about it?
The problem is money.
Nobody wants to pay the sand­
blasting bill. Drexel won’t. They
don’t technically own the walk.
The Commonwealth of Penn­
sylvania won’t. If they had to pay
to clean all the graffitti in
Philadelphia, they’d go bankrupt.
So who will pay? The current
plan is to make the next person
who is caught painting there pay
for the cleaning. Like I said
before, it’s been over a year and
a half, and this is I^iladelphia. It
could be several years before
^ y b o d y is caught painting. In the
meantime, the sidewalk looks like
a weathered billboard.
So what should we do about it?
Repaint the crests. They never
looked bad in the first place. In
fact, that row of greek letters was
one of the few visible indications
that this group o f orange
buildings actually forms a college
campus. The problem is not the
crests. It never was. I remember
that right before the decision to
bar the sidewalk from repainting
was made there was some offen­
sive graffitti also on the sidewalk.
This is a problem that we have to
expect from being in the middle
of a city. It has nothing to do with
the Greeks, or their crests.
So why not make the walk the
responsibility of the frats? Now,
I’m not a member of IFA, and I
probably never will be. It may not'
be my place to say anything, but
I ’m tired of watching the crests
rot. Let me make two observa­
tions about IFA. One: When the
crests were intact, the fraternities
treated the area with respect.
Two: As you probably know, the
fraternities are now running a
very efficient town watch pro­
gram, something that the entire
campus should be proud of, and
thankful for. If these two ficts are
considered, then it is easy to see
that fraternity control of the walk
would not only keep the crests in­
tact, but that it would also bring
the chance of outside vandalism
down greatly.
Anyway, that’s my suggestion,
I may have oversimplified the
problem, and if I did. I’d like to
know, (w rite me c/o the
Triangle). But something really
should be done about that walk.
It looks like hell.

Editor:
Bravo to Stuart Siegel for that
wonderfiilly honest article on our
“ boxy” little friends—the Macs.
His w ords conjured
up
nightmarish images that I’ve been
experiencing for years—five to be
exact. To be perfectly honest, one
of the reasons I chose Drexel was
because I would become a
member of the first freshman
class in the country to be required
to purchase a personal computer
whose use would be incorporated
throughout my college career.
The most innovative move I’ve
witnessed on Drexel’s part was
the repeated delay of delivery of
the Macs to my freshman class.
Since that time, things have gone
steadily downhill.
After having been forced to
wait almost until Spring Break to
finally pick up my Mac, I was
enrolled
in
B418
[Macroeconomics] for the follow­
ing Tuesday. (Remember when
March 4, 1988
the first Monday of the term was
spent hanging around until 2:45
p.m. in order to procure a
schedule at the gym after arriv­
ing at 2:45 a.m. in order to NOT
get a gate card for the parking
garage? Sorry, that’s another
nightmarish image for some other
time.) Our economics class turn­
ed out to be a farce. We were
subjected to useless lectures (yes,
lectures in an economics course!)
in Room 109 on how to create
some ridiculous document on
Multiplan by professors who
were unfamiliar with the Mac’s
peculiarities themselves. After an
entire term of having to hand in
one useless spreadsheet each
week fiill of the wrong formulas
(I still haven’t the slightest clue
as to what those formulas were
about) I learned absolutely
nothing about economics. I did,
however, have a crash course in
how to cope with the stress caus­
ed by ill-prepared professors requiriung impossible assignments
with a due date of yesterday. I
must admit that these coping
skills came in very handy during
my stay at Drexel.
Since that time, the only re­
quired use of my Mac was one
assignment in an accounting elec­
tive during my pre-junior year.
Yes, I have typed a few letters
and papers on it (including this
one—twice because a system ernor wiped out my first one) and
done resumes for myself and
several friends, but hardly
enough to warrant the thousand
dollar price tag for an obsolete
machine. Sure I could pay a few
hundred more and have it upgrad­
ed to a 5 12K or MacPlus or 5 12e
(whatever they are!) but I believe
this con^wter is what the Accoun­
ting majors would call a “ sunk

There is a minority here at
Prexel; a silent minority. A
nlinority diat seems to dwindle in
size with every coming year. The
minority I s p ^ of is tiie black
race, which accounts for four per­
cent of Drexel’s student^. With
the end of Black History month
Guest Columnist

drawing nearer, this is a perfect
time to examine blacks at Drex­
el; how do we feel, how do we
cope, and what do we expect
from Drexel?
I attended the High School o f
Engineering and Science, a
Philadelphia public school that is
very unique. In a city in which the
student population is overwhehnin^y black. Engineering and
Science is a totally integrated high
school. At E iSi S, I learned how
to deal with people of other races,
a lesson which you are forced to
learn and a lesson that I think
would be valuable for all people.
When my senior year rolled
around, I went through the
tedious ordeal of choosing a col­
lege. Factors I considered were
proximity of the university to
Philadelphia and whether or not
the school had a cooperative
education plan; the percentage of
minority students did not enter in­
to my decision. Upon arriving at
Drexel in the fall of 1986.1 notic­
ed something very different; I
was one of just a handful of
blacks in my general freshman
business courses. I was sort of
like a grain of pepper in a bowl
of salt. I have b^o m e used to
this, but, none the less, it is
sometimes disconcerting.
Since arriving at Drexel, like
most people, I have made quite a
few new friends. Most of these
new friends are white, and that
doesn’t bother me at all. You
forget about the race difference;
you don’t try, but you do forget.
Sometimes things are said or
done in passing that cause you to
remember. For the most part the
conunents or actions have to do
with stereotypes, stereotypes
which are generally untrue.
Associate Dean of Students and
Director of Minority Affairs,
Sylvester B. Hopewell, Jr., says
that “ stereotypes are easier for
p e ^ e to dieal witfi.” These
things stick in your mind and you
learn to deal t ^ m , but they still
stick. These things for the most
part are said or done without
thinking, and the guilty party
often means no harm by the state­
ment or action, yet there is
always that thought in your mind
of “ what did he mean by that?”
One person I spoke to, who is
black, said she has said things that
have shown her as having some
prejudices. She went on to say
that these remarks frightened her
and being at Drexel seems to have
brought out some prejudice.
Other students have remarked
that attending Drexel has brought
out dormant prejudices.
Another aspect of Drexel is the
absence of black teachers. Dur­
ing the four terms and roughly
twenty teachers that I have suf^
fered through, I have had exact­
ly one black teacher (this was my
l^ k etb all teacher, which just
goes
to perpetuate
one
stereotype). Dean Hopewell told
me that out of roughly four hun­
dred and fifty-seven full-time
faculty members, eight are black,
and no special efforts are under
way to hire more.
Probably the strangest abject of
being black and attending Drex­
el is the way other blacks treat
you depending on who your
friends are. One black Drexel stu­
dent I spoke to said, “ Black
Drexel students have a tendency
to stick together. Some also think
that blacks that hang around with
whites are strange.” It is not that
hard to prove the first part of this
statement. The next time you go
to the cafeteria, just take a look
around at who sits with whom.
When some people make fiiends,
they make friends according to
the most visible characteristic in
a person. One experiment comes
to mind. Twenty people were
placed in a room, ten with red
shirts, and ten with blue shirts.
After a while, the people in the
room started to form groups. It
was found that of the groups that
were formed, most were formed
according to the color of the shirts
being worn. In other words, these
groups were formed according to
the most visible characteristic. In
everyday living the most visible
characteristic is race and, unfor­
tunately, many cliques are form­
ed around race. These cliques
sometimes look down on those
who are not with them. In look­
ing down on blacks who hang out
with whites, other blacks will
make conmients such as, “ she’s
trying to act white” or “ he must
think he’s white” . Maybe these
statements are made to rationalize
why one person will only
socialize with one race. Some
blacks do dispute these claims
though. A few blacks I spoke to
said that since many of the black
students are raised similarly they
“ tend to band together.” Another
claim is that most of the social
events offered by the school are
organized without even consider­
ing blacks, and because of this
blacks organize their own events.
One student remarked that most
of her relationships with whites
arise from class work and for the
most part that is what the relation­
ship is based on.
The shortcoming most men­
tioned in my talk with other black
students is the lack of black
fraternities and sororities on cam­
pus. If a black Drexel student
wants to pledge to a black frater­
nity, that student must pledge
through the University of Penn•sylvania. One person even went
further. She stated that the black
organizations at Drexel are
“ weak” and that things would
probably be better if they were
more evident in campus life. She
said the fact that there are no
t ^ k fnttemities or sororities just
adds to the frustration. Dean
Hopewell commented that there
are mechanisms under way to
form black social fraternities and
sororities, but there are no
students to follow up on the plan.
As of late, Drexel’s fraternities
and sororities have made attempts
to increase their black members.
Probably the most frightening
thought in examining the small
percentage of blacks at Drexel is
a lack of experience many whites
will have in dealing with blacks.
Dean Hopewell remarks that “ By
the year 2000, eighty-five percent
of Ae total work force will be
minorities [women and blacks].”
These are the leaders of tomor­
row; where will they learn how
to deal with blacks?
College, for many people, is a
place where they learn about life;
a place where they find their
values, their political views
and so forth. Unfortunately, one
lesson that is being missed is how
they feel about their fellow num
and how to deal with their fellow
man. A white student at Drexel
can effectively go through five
years of college without having to
deal with a black student or a
black teacher; how can one
benefit from this? All that I can
hope for is understanding and
recognition of those who are
around you. As.one wise person
remarked, “ We have come far,
but we still have a long way to
go-”

perience using Lotus 1-2-3. I
have yet to hear of a financial
position requiring a thorough
knowledge of the Apple version
of Multiplan. Maybe I ’ve just
been looking for a job in the
wrong location. Thank goodness
for my Co-op experience using
Lotus 1-2-3 on an IBM AT. At
least I was able to get some ex­
cellent cooperative experience
from my Drexel education. I
guess Drexel didn’t welch on
ALL of its promises to my
freshman class.

E ditor:
I am a freshman and I am
writing this in response to Eric T.
LaBorie’s column “ Life in a Nut­
shell” in the February 26th issue
of The Triangle.
As a firm believer in God, I
was appalled at how Mr. LaBorie
criticized religion and the Bible
without the slightest shred of
knowledge about either.
Your first mistake was to
generalize about religi(Mi. The on­
ly basis for your argument was
the fact that your old school
teachers were tyrants and they
happened to be teaching in a
Catholic ^ h o o l, that does not in­
clude all who believe in God or
even all Catholics.
Your second mistake was in
saying that the Church says sex
is not to be enjoyed. If you ever
find a passage in the Bible saying
this, I challenge you to show it in
your next column. The Bible says
it should be enjoyed within mar­
riage. If we were meant to “ sleep
around” , then why do we have so
many venereal diseases and
AIDS? j t ’s in the Bible for a very
practiced reason!
Finally, while many parts of
the Bible can interpreted dif­
ferently, the greatest command­
ment in it is to “ Love the Lord
with all your heart, with all your
soul and with all your mind”
(Matthew 22:37). Try to “ inter­
pret” this differently.
So, in a “ nutshell” , you should
first do some research on what
you criticize so that you can make
an intelligent argument about it
rather than a few gross
generalizations.
Sincerely,
John B. Simoes
Oh God, pt. II
Editor:
I am not beating a drum, nor
selling any snake oil; I am simp­
ly putting into words my gut reac­
tion to Eric LaBorie’s article of
the February 26 Triangle. Please
feel free to comment or question
as you wish, as I have nothing at
stake.
I went to a church school, and
I was only beaten (with a willow
branch) once—and I deserved it.
I belong to a relatively new Chris­
tian religion that is not based on
fear of ‘‘The Devil, ’’ fear of hell,
or even fear of God. We are
“ God fearing” ; that is, we
believe in the Lord God Jesus
Christ, and are “ afraid” of acting
in such a way as to disappoint
Him. But we certainly do not
believe that He is sitting up there
waiting for us to screw up, so that
He can cast us into eternal
hellfire. No Virginia, there is
NOT an angry God.
The devil? Why even give as
much honor to the concept as to
capitalize the term? OK, so we all
have evil tendencies, and once in
a while (maybe more often than
is good for us) we give to them.
The devil didn’t make us do it; we
chose to, ourselves—you know
that. One minister I know is fond
of telling his parishoners, “ If you
feel tempted, or plagued by evil
thoughts, just tell them to ‘go to
hell’!” —Back where they came
from. Some Christians like to
quote the saying, “ If you’re not
with God, you’re against Him,”
and that you are therefore danmed. What about the bushmen in
Nairobi? Are they, who live, a
simple, peaceful life, going to a
bushmen hell, just because they
are not “ with God” ? Poor little
guys....
Another saying is, “ The road
to hell is p a v ^ with good inten­
tions.” I prefer, “ The road to
heaven is paved with good inten­
tions. ’’ If you define the term in­
tentions carefully, you will see
that if you wish to do a good
deed, but can’t because you don’t
have the means, that is terrific!
Good for you! But just remember
that you have to
honest with
yourself.
“ If you’re not with evil, you’re
with God. ” To me that is a much
more positive, hopeful attitude,
reflecting a more loving, forgiv>
ing God. The bushman will go to
heaven, if he lives an orderly
bushman life—once in heaven,
perhaps he will be taught that
Cathcdicism is actually correct, or
maybe Hindu, or maybe mine, or
whatever is “ The Religion” . The
same goes for Lee loccoca, and
John the hot dog man on the cor­
ner of 33rd and Market (anything
to drink?). If you live your life

About this time every year
for the past 92 years The
Triangle has conducted its year­
ly student survey. Five hundred
students, one hundred from
each class, were asked their
opinions about various Drexel
supposed to last. A whopping
18 percent replied, “ those
Ruskies are always trying these
things and they never work.”
Sixteen percent approved of
most of the plan, but urged that
the “ campus spine” not be
formed; they felt that Drexel
should retain its essentially
spineless nature..Forty percent
couldn’t care less and the re­
maining 2 percent refused to
comment, claiming that they
would have to think about such
an important question, and that,
like most people , they didn’t
want to think while filling out
a survey.
Asked about the quality of
their student paper, The
Triangle, 56 percent replied that
they loved it and read every ar­
ticle. Thirty-two percent liked

results of this year’s survey

proved of the plan, but weren’t
sure when it would start.
Twelve percent knew when it
started, approved of it, but
didn’t know how long it was

1. The coupon askes for you to
fill out some very basic informa­
tion which will attest to the fact
that you feel cheated and wrong­
ed by Drexel and/or Apple when
it comes to the 128K Mac Minus.
2. Your coupon will be includ­
ed with a letter to Apple and
Drexel, which will express how
our trust for the Apple product
has been violated. The letter will
also ask for proper restitution for
the f l y m a n class of ’85. The
reason this class is specified on­
ly is that they didn’t even get half
a year o f computer use before
their machine was obsolete.
The coupon has been reprinted
in this issue; please fill it out if
it applies to you. I will not send

college student during the sixties,
I would have been an outcast
amoung the tie-dyed, ripped
jeans, and joint wielding crowd.
What Nats
Stuart Siegel
This doesn’t mean that I don’t
stand up for what I think is right,
it simply means that I do it in the
most reserved manner possible.
When a friend sugessted that I
use my column as a media for
righting the wrongs done to me
concerning the 128K Mac, I was
a little unsure. Since the very
beginning, I have felt that this
space should be used for general
c^servations and “ what nots.” It
was not allocated for personal
campaigns and battles. With this
in mind, I decided to take up the
fight privately. This turned out to
be a poor decision since one per­
son usually can’t get as far as
numy. On the 19th day of
February, I decided to drag my
column into the fight with the
hope diat I would get enough sup­
port to force action. This decision
was based on the fact that, as
mentioned above, there is power
in numbers and, that the 128K
screw up didn’t just effect me.
There were thousands of peo­
ple who were forced to buy the
Moron Mac, and yet I have only
received twenty or so responses
(as of March, 2) to the coupcMi
that was printed in the Feb, 26
issue of the Triangle. For those
of you are not familier with this
continued on page 8
the letter until I have 250 or more
coupons. This represents aj^roximately 15 percent of the people
who were insulted the most when
they were force to by the Measly
Mac (the freshman class of ’85.)
As for the people of the earlier
freshman classes, fill it out too,
who knows what might be ac­
complished. The fkrt is that many
people were wronged. If I can’t
a p p ^ to your sense of morality,
allow me to appeal to your sense
of selfishness. Chances are that
one of those people that were
wronged is you!? Do something
about it and fill out the coupon.
Stuart Siegel has received twenty
coupons so far. Only 230 left to
go!
The following form will be included with a letter
from Stuart Siegel author of What Nots (refer to col­
umn In the February 19,1988 issue) which will be
sent to the CEO of Apple Computer and the Presldenfs office of Drexel University. If the following te)(t
genuinely represents your feelings, please fill out the
necessary information and drop it off at
Triangle,
Room 3016 MacAlister.
I feel that I have been unfairly treated by Apple
arKt Drexel University concerning the compulsory
purchase of the 128K Mac.

the news stories, but thought
that the news editor, Joe
Saunders, was kind of goofy.
Seven percent enjoyed the paper
but mentioned that there were
far too many spelling mistakes
in the columns, although they
realize^ that the copy editor was
solely to blame. Three percent
hated the paper because of
“ those stupid Raoul Duke col­
umns. ’ ’ Of those three percent,
over half questioned whether
the writer of the Duke columns
had genitalia longer than two in­

was, in fact, a eunich.

responsibly, according to what
you honestly believe to be true,
God will not send you to hell.
God gives partial c r ^ it for what
you cio right, so long as in the end
you love doing good, more than
you love doing evil,
I have talked to members of
many other religions, and seen
many tracts and pamphlets, just
like the “ Did you ever sit and
wonder?” one Eric read last
week. (Did you ever make your
transaction?) Almost without ex­
ception I find that they know intestinally that they are right (and
saved), and that [everyone else is]
going to burn in hell, be tortured
or damned by the wrathful,
vengeful God, unless you join
their religion immediately. I think
it is sad that they feel that way,
but I feel worse for the poor peo­
ple who feel guilt ridden due to
being told that they are damned.
My religion believes (as I said
above) that if you live justly,
honestly and sincerely according
to the beliefs that you know to be
true, you will be alright.
So Eric, don’t sweat it—God is a
great guy, and He didn’t give us
all these things just so we could
deny them. Enjoy life, but
remember Who gave you your
life, and everything you have.

ing about WYSP and so were dis­
qualified. Of the remaining, none
of them even knew that there was
a student radio station.
Asked about their faculty, 34
percent claimed to have seen at
least one of their teachers naked
in the past year; 23 percent of
those queried suspected that at
least some of their teachers had,
at one time, spent time in a
federal penitentiary. Nineteen
percent thought that a few of the
humanities faculty would benefit
from being spanked with a rusty
car antenna. Fourteen percent
refused to use anything except
obscene words to describe their
faculty members, some adding
comments like: “ All of those
-------should b e --------taken out
to the quad for a ------ ride on the
------ flame o’ knowledge!” Nine
percent of those surveyed actual­
ly liked their teachers, but
wouldn’t let their brother^ister
date one. Four students spat on
the questionnaire.
A fiill 49 percent of those
surveyed thought that the
distribution of dead gnus in the
quad would not improve campus
appearance.
Several students spontanenously combusted at the very thought
of gnus.
Most students (73 percent)
A
fa re w e ll
fa v o rite
agreed that hot dogs tasted better
when barbequed, but felt that the
Comptroller should be fried, after
being sliced into small, sasuagelike pieces.
Questioned about safety on
campus, 34 percent felt safe
unless they were alone with a
security guard. Twenty-four per­
cent agreed that the campus
would be safer if there were more
security guards, as long as they
were stationed somewhere else,
like Fairmount Park. Fourteen
percent approved of security
guards steding equipment from
campus buildings, some adding
comments like “ at least they
don’t have to break in, so you
don’t have to replace a broken
door.” Three percent enjoyed
listening to the guards radios. On­
ly 1 percent believed that some of
the guards who wear sunglasses
indoors and at night do so because
they have been free-basing co­
caine while on duty.
Students did not have time to
complete the questionnaires in
most cases. They began to be
mysteriously destroyed by what
later turned out to be a death ray
from the eighth floor of Disque
Hall. Commented Dr. Fitzhugh,
Assoc. Professor of Dangerous
Technology, “ It was just and ex­
periment that went bad.”
Dr. Fitzhugh was later
c o lu m n is t
destroyed by one of his own ex­
periments, a modified automobile
headlight that was actually a highpowered laser. His death leaves
the entire University in mourn­
ing, although according to Dr.
Minituti, in the chemistry depart­
ment, “ We all sleep a little easier
in our offices now that we know
we won’t share the fate of
Finigan.”
Dr. Pele Finigan’s office was
destroyed last year in what Dr.
Fitzhugh described at the time as
a “ freak, one-in-a-million acci­
dent that will hopefully never
happen again.”
Forty-five percent o f the
students surveyed said that they
would
object
to
being
disintegrated, although they had
no other suggestions when they
were asked to suggest some other
form of immolation.
Thirty-two percent of those
surveyed were in one of Drexel’s
social fraternities, and more than
half of them didn’t know what the
word immolation means. Of the
32 percent over three quarters felt
that The Triangle did ^ e campus
a disservice by reporting frater­
nity brothers as being fallingdown drunk on the streets, swill­
ing
m ixed
drin ks
until
hospitalization was required to
save their lives, selling dnigs, and
fermenting racial unrest in the
community. Most of those who
objected did admit that these
events and more have taken place
but commented “ Oh yea, so
what? Big deal.”
None of tlje students surveyed
answered the question about stu­
dent apathy.
This will be the last column Ed
Hartnett will be writing for us
because o f his new job as
DataMan for the ERICA project.
Although he has agreed to write
an occasional column, his will be
sorely missed by the entire staff.

Chere’s missing folk, mistrust, anb fear.
Che clafas tl|at renb, the breath so hot,
I t ’s time b feeb the Senicot.
iCofa many maibens felt tl]e knife?
^ o fa many maibens b st tl|eo: life?
Cill lEluisl| Cor leameb neebeb skill,
Cill hanbs anb knife leameb l]ofa b kill.
Cill bying eyes safa heart l|elb higl],
While bymg lips moan, “ Bear ®ob, ffihy?”
S o run, anb pant, bon’t bok behinb,
(§r see your fear, anb bse your minb.
Hun on, anb on, anb faeep anb cry,
Kofa thne b scream! Soon time b bie.
S o stay close bgetl|er you anb I ,
Anb pray to neuer l|ear Ips cry.
Co knofa l|hn coming to yoin: spot.
All l|orror, knofan as Senicot.

by Randy Dalmas
Triangle Staff Writer
Picture a skinny Prince Charles
with big rubber ears, a fat hairy
legged Margaret Thatcher, and an
air-headed Lady Diana, all with
a trenchcoated Mickey Spillaneinspired Mike Monkeywrench
narrating the events, and you
have the Buckingham Palace ver­
sion of “ Fatal Attraction” , the
opening act of the No Respect for
the Human Condition Players
revue, “ Fuedal Attraction” .
For almost two hours, the four
member troupe (Jimmy Clark,
Rich DiDio, Peter M uller,
Deborah Block) covers material
satirizing political figures, current
events, and entertainment in a
well-written show, sprinkled with
sometimes silly and obnoxious
gags and one-liners in the small
upper level o f PJ Moriarty’s Pub
and Restaurant.
The opening skit, “ Feudal At­
traction” , follows the seduction
of Prince Charles by a jealous
Maggie Thatcher, their heated af­
fair in'a freight elevator, and up
to Maggie’s demise in her illfated attempt to do away with her
rival. Princess Dictionary. The
group uses quotes from the actual
leaders in appropriate places, and
even satirizes Lady Diana’s habit
of visiting nightclubs to watch
Twisted Sister, whose lead
singer’s “ voice is as soothing as
as the death yelp of a sea otter be­
ing eviscerated in a jammed
cuisinart.”
Things get a little out of hand
later in the first half when
“ Masterpiece Theatre” presents
an abridged history of condoms
in the arts. Homer narrates the
scene of Oedipus plucking out his
eyes, lamenting that although he
solved the riddle of the sphynx,
he had to go and “ pork his
mother” to give a disappointing
ending to a potentially. good
scene. In another, Handel asks
“ Want to hear some water
music?” and promptly blows
loud bubbles into a glass of water,
then his “ Messiah” is butchered
when a choir sings “ Use A Con­
dom” instead of “ Allelujah” .
After a brief intermission, the
group returns with a hilarious
staging o f “ At the Sneak
Previews” , a satire of movie
reviewers with a couple of great
twists. Michael Medved (from
Sneak Previews) and Roger Ebert
(from At the M ovies) become
“ two egotistical self-proclaimed
dictators of popular taste . . . eter­
nally interlocked in an endless
debate, attempting to find mean­
ing in meaningless films . . . in
the Twilight Zone” quips a Rod
Serling about the trapped duo.
Medved analyzes the purposeful­
ly childish movie Elvis and Me,
watching Elvis sloppily stuffing a
sandwich into his mouth and
marveling at “ how Elvis biting
into that bacon sandwich summ­
ed up all of Elvis’ emerging ad­
dictiveness.” After Ebert pans
this as the “ worst piece of cinema
he has ever seen,” the intellectual
pair eventually resort to namecalling and fighting.
Another well-planned skit has
as the Ghost of Presidents Past,
James Buchanan, the bachelor
president, who gives Gary Hart
advice on how he handled the
media without creating a scandal
while he was in the White House
fooling around with his 14 yearold female cousin.
One excellent example of
characterizations was Andy
Rooney
m onotonely
demonstrating advancements in
pooper-scoopers, including one
“ for yuppies, [a] deluxe model to
keep your distance from the dog­
gie discharge” and the “ offen­
ding offal.”
“ We’re definitely an anal
group” , said Jimmy Clark, one
of the three principle writer-actor
members of the troupe. “ We
(also) like to try to please a varie­
ty of people.” The members ex­
p lain ^ that they like to throw in
surprise toilet or childlike humor
to keep the skits unpredictable.
Overall, the strongest points of
the show lie in the talen t^ acting
and characterizations developed,
and the ideas and topics
presented, equal to that of many
m ore notdble professional
groups. However, some sight
gags and punch lines were offthe-mark and a letdown after
good set-ups. The props and
special-effects were definitely
low-budget, but considerations
must be made for the small space
and costs. The films shown dur­
ing the skits were very effective,
and again, conceived and written
with quality.
These are not your ordinary
stand-up routines, but much more
sophisticated and diverse.
Although a few of the scenes in
the first half were predictable and
a little disappointing, in this case
“ Masterpiece Theater” , the se­
cond half is highly recommend­
ed for anyone who enjoys Satur­
day Night Live type entertainment
that moves quickly and smoothly
through very funny material.
So don’t stay home and watch
the same old sit-coms, go out see
this one-of-a-kind Philadelphia
coffee-house group for inexpen­
sive live-entertainment. This is
one of the only groups of its kind
in the area, and considering the
enjoyment of the sell-out crowd,
should not be missed.
Performances of “ Feudal At­
traction” are scheduled for 9:30
Fridays and Saturdays nights
from now through April 2nd, but
extended dates will
scheduled
if shows continue to sell-out. PJ
Moriarty’s is at 1116 Walnut
Street, where the players perform
on the upper level. For reserva­
tions (recom m ended), call
844-4947. Tickets are $8.00
general admission, and $5.00
with a student I.D.

special.
“ Heaven Knows” , the track
played on the radio, is probably
the most listenable on the album.
Strangely enough, this is the on­
ly song that does not feature Plant
as a songwriter. Most of the
writing was done by Plant on the
other tracks, however, with much
assistance by his band.
Old bandmate Jimmy Page can
be found playing his axe on two
tracks, although you would never
know if it wasn’t for the mention
on the lyric sheet. As a matter of
fact, at the end of one of those
songs, “ Tall Cool One” , there
are about five seconds of clips
from old Zeppelin hits. The en­
tire album pales in comparison to
these five seconds. They act as a
subde reminder of how great
Plant once was, and how lame
this new record really is.
Let’s see, I must be able to find
something good about this album.
Well, there is variety, all the
songs don’t sound alike. This
makes the record bearable, I
didn’t mind listening to the album
over.and over to do this review.
The song “ Billy’s Revenge” on
the second side has a catchy
melody and would be the best
song if it weren’t for parts that

tle Shop of Horrors, Set in the
cookie-cutter urban wasteland of
B altim ore,
the
film
revolves around the ‘‘Corny Col­
ins” show - a “ Dancing On Air”
type mutual admiration socie­
ty/teenager’s dance show hosted
by a two dimensional Ken-doll
clone. Cans of hairspray are as
much a fashion accessory in this
environment as peroxide is at
Nesbitt. The regulars on the show
are referred to as ‘the council’
and are the reigning monarchs of
the city’s puberty crowd. Queen
of the council is a blond bimbo
.determined to use the show as a
springboard to being crowned
Miss Baltimore Carshow, 1963.
Such lofty aspirations.
A rotund midget teenager is the
true heroine of the film (Jerry
Stiller and Divine play her
parents). Full of self confidence,
if not grace and poise, she audi­
tions, is accepted and quickly
takes the lead on the “ Corny Col­
lins” show. The blond bimbo
vows revenge, after which the
plot degenerates into a pure and
total vacuum. Waters throws in
some tripe about the Civil Rights
movement ( along with the
predictable references to rhythm
and other myths).
The film is loaded with seminame brand actors - Pia Zadora
and Rick Ocasek play a pair of
scrabbled brain beatniks, Sonny
Bono and Debbie Harry the
parents of the heroine’s nemisis
and Waters even does a cameo
appearance as a Twilight Zone
psychiatrist.
Waters presents a nightmare
land from his memories as
frightening as anything Wes
Craven can cook up. In it, most
folks’ lives are ruled by bad taste
and mediocrity, totally unaware
of anything beyond their im­

3: To the Power O f T hree
First there was Emerson, Lake
and Palmer. Then there was
Emerson, Lake and Powell. Now
there is Emerson, Berry and
Palmer, or 3, as they like to be
called. Keith Emerson, original­
ly planning to make another
ELPowell record, re-united with
K elly & C o h en

mediate environment and goals.
Above it all the system dictates a
narrow minded hypocrisy. With
so many targets begging for a
vicious skewering, you sit on the
edge of waiting for the butcher­
ing that never comes.
John Waters can usually be
counted on to produce suitably
weird entertainment with razor
teeth. He fails or doesn’t even try
with this one. Hairspray presents
the weirdness in bulk, but lacks
the satirical bite to make it a wor­
thwhile classic. It’s only PG, fer
cryin’ out loud. Don’t bother un­
til it’s out on video.

Now Featuring the band Urizen every Saturday night at
Kelly and Cohen, 10 p.m. ‘till closing
one of the leading candidates
from the start of the search for a
new bassist. It was felt however
that other applications should be
accepted to ensure that the most
suitable replacement be found.
After these applications and
resumes were evaluated a limited
number of auditions were held,
and Smith was chosen.
The Hooters are now touring
England, and it is not known
when they will be appearing in
the Philadlphia area again.
v in y l
Carl Palmer, who returns to life
after the sinking ship of Asia.
However Greg Lake has d ro f ^ d
out of the picture, his spot filled
by Robert Berry (Berry’s past ex­
perience include car salesman,
British ambassador to Pago Pago
and three time Olympic gold
medalist in grass-skiing).
This record. To the Power Of
Three, is the most pop-like stuff
ever to come from an Emersontrio. This is probably due to the
fact the Berry wrote over half the
material. His voice works well
with Emerson’s keyboard style.
Instrumentally, this album is ex­
cellent. If only the songs were
bener this record could have been
great.
Unfortunately, most of the
bracks are pop trash. Most of the
songs sound similar and music
becomes uninteresting. A good
example is the re-make of “ 8
Miles High” starting off the se­
cond side. This version is almost
danceable, but it’s not easy to
listen to it more than once.
On the other hand, there are
two tracks that have some sort of
value. A three part song entitled
Desde La Vida” is actually
pretty good. An instrumental
break as part II is a highlight of
the album. The best song on the
record is easily one called “ On
My Way Home” , the only track
written solely by Emerson.
All in all. To the Power Of
Three is worth a listen but I can­
not recommend buying it. ELP
and Asia fans will probably have '
the best chance of enjoying this
album. As for everyone else, ig­
nore it and it will go away.

HO W ’S YOUR LOVE LIFE?
C o m ed y C o m p e titio n
by Susan J . T a lb u tt
Of The Triangle
to shock the audience to get a
la u g h .
C herie Reeves, the second
place finisher w as third to go on
stage and is a graduate student in
psychology. R eeves lost some
tim e while fiddling w ith the
m icrophone, asking if she could
use the w ord “ dick” , and rolling
around on the stage. H ow ever,
she did have tim e to lam bast a
few old television show s like Star
Trek and G illigan’s Island.
Finishing third w as R obert
Rhodes, w ho also got quite a
num ber o f laughs, although his
monologue seemed disjointed. He
made some w ry points about the
quality o f television show s, such
as Divorce Court: “ W hile M rs.
Jones has a nervous breakdow n,
we have time for a short com m er­
cial b re a k .”
Perhaps m entionable only for
th e
to ta l
c r u d ity
an d
hum orlessness o f his act is Tom
Balderstone. H is entire act was
rem inicent o f the stereotypical
frat broth er, w hich could have
been funny if he had realized this.
Balderstone told jokes on the
assum ption that com m ents about
w om en as se x u al to y s are
hum orous to a room ful o f men
and w om en w ho are cold sober.
T h ey ’re not. H e should stick to
delighting room fuls o f drunken
fra te rn ity b ro th e rs w ith his
com edy.
D irty hum or can be funny, as
was proven by B alderstone’s
friend Je ff Palutis; it’s ironic that
Palutis entered only as a favor to
Balderstone. H is entire act con­
sisted o f d escrib in g how to

A s s o c ia tio n ,
Sticklets and D oritos. C herie
R eev es p la c e d se c o n d , and
Robert Rhodes came in third. The
contest w as held in the D rag o n ’s
Den on Friday, February 26, and
was hosted by Barry W eintraub,
a New Jersey c o m ^ ia n . He a r­
rived about h alf an hour late due
to the heavy traffic between
Drexel and C herry Hill. A fter the
am ateurs had gone on, W eintraub
took the stage, giving a very good
p e rfo rm a n c e .
The com petion drew out some
very talented people from the
D rexel com m unity. H oran was
definitely the best and m ost pro­
fessional o f the entrants. H oran’s
hum or was the subtle hum or o f a
man who cannot understand the
concept o f a hackey-sack. His ad­
vice on how to keep a hackey
sack from touching the ground
was to “ put it in y o u r p ocket” .
He also delved into the problem s
with com m ercial advertising, a
p e r e n n ia l
fa v o rite '
w ith
com edians.
O ne o f the jo y s o f H o ra n ’s act
w as the absence o f profanity.
W hile the rules o f the contest
stated that profanity w ould not be
allow ed, som e o f the contestants
felt that “ d irty ” language and
jo kes w ere the only w ay they
could be hum orous. H oran was
com ical enough w ithout needing
urinate after aw akening with an
erection. A pparently, he brought
new found enlightenm ent to the
m asses w ith his m ethod o f stan­
ding on o n e ’s head.
The o th er contestants included
Scmt H arker, John Finisdore, and
Lee Sals. H arker was too nervous
to give a good perform ance,
although he did score a hit with
his joke about the strings around
his neck being a M r. T. starter
kit. F inisdore m ade the accurate
observation (Ed. N ote: “ ques­
tionable” may be a m ore ap­
propriate adjective) that “ men
can turn anything you say into a
sexual innuendo” and then went
on to dem onstrate it. Sals, a
political science m ajor, skipped
around in his act and had little
continutity.
O verall, the com petition gave
the audience a reason to look for­
w ard to other SPA events. Every
would-be comedian put forth a lot
o f effort and, for the most part,
s u c c e e d e d .E a c h c o n te s ta n t’s
routine w as videotaped and has
been sent up to New Y ork City,
w here they will be judged against
all the entries from the east coast.
The w inner from the east coast
region will go to D aytona Beach,
F lorida to com pete with the w in­
ners from the other three regions.
The overall w inner wins a five
day, four night trip to New Y ork
and will perfo rm at the Com ic
Strip, fam ed com edy club. The
regional w inners have not yet
been announced, but rest assured
the Triangle will provide com ­
plete coverage.

by M ark Otto
Triangle Staff Writer
When the Holidays are over
and the spring break gets closer,
one thought comes to the minds
of 33 students; baseball. Drexel
University’s 1987-88 season gets
under way in less than a month,
so here’s what to expect.
Head coach William Myers has
had his team practicing in the ar­
mory, the gym and on nice days
down at the field in preperation
for the season. The coaching staff
under him consists of assistant
coaches John Coyle, now in his
second year as assistant coach,
and, new to Drexel’s staff, Mike
Wolohan. Coach Walohan was
Head Coach at Spring Gardens
for 5 years, then moved to Tex­
tiles, where his assistant coaching
helped lead the team into the
NCAA playoffs last year.
‘We’re a little behind because
of the [asbestos] problem in the
armory,‘ says _Coach Myers.
‘We’ve had nowhere to practice
but the gym, and with basketball
in season, it’s hard to find room.’
Last year’s team didn’t fare so
well. As a matter of fact, it had
one of the worst records in recent
years. ‘We played well, but we
just didn’t hit. We lost a lot of
one-run ballgames,’ says Coach
Myers. ‘This year will show
some better hitting, and more
speed on the bases.’
This years team has 13 or 14
real quality players that could be
on the field, so some positions are
still wide open. The coach gives
me the impression that he has
great concern over his middle in­
field. ‘Defensively, the outfield is
strong,' comments Myers, ‘third
base and first base are strong, but
I don’t know how the middle in­
field will do. Dave Szafranski
will be at shortstop, and John
Leahy at second. John started as
a fill-in at second and played fair­
ly well, and with no-one else to
fill the position, he’ll be starting
there.’
The Dragons feature some
familiar faces. One such face is
that of senior Tom Hurley. At
third base, Tom will be anchor­
ing the defense in his fourth
season at drexel and is co-captain
of the team. Dave Elsier, a
senior, will return as starting cat­
cher for the Dragons. He led the
team last year with a .306 batting
average and 13 RBI’s. Left hand­
ed pitcher Jim Traintos, recover­
ing from a shoulder operation
over the winter break, and Mike
Sonier (sophomore), coming off
an arm injury, will be ready to
return to the mound again when
the season opens. Junior John Del
Vecchio and sophomore Bryan
Davis will also join the starting
pitchers this season.
Traintos, a senior, is optomistic
about this year’s team. ‘Our
schedule is tough and there’s still
a lot of work to be done, but we
have the talent to do well. There
is a stronger sense of team spirit
than we’ve had in past years.’
New faces to the team this year
include sophomore transfer Bill
Baltrus (pitcher/catcher) and
Junior transfer from Connecticut
John Szefc (Say that again?).
Coach Myers hopes to use John’s
speed on the bases as well as in
the field. With 10 steals last year,
Warren Keir, a sophomore,
should be trouble for opponents,
and together they could take the
pressure off the later hitters.
Coach Myers feels that if they get
runners on base, they’ll score
runs. Altogether, the team
features 15 new players, but
Myers doesn’t consider this a
building year. He feels the team
has talent despite it’s relative
youth.
Missing this season is senior
co-captain Doug Johnston, out
with a shoulder injury. He had ar­
throscopic surgery due to car­
tilage damage and won’t see any
15
D r e x e l ’s q u e s t i o n s n e e d a n s w e r s
action this season. Doug, 1986
Team MVP, has proven himself
to be a valuable asset in the past.
Coach Myers isn’t sure who will
emerge to fill the gap, but feels
that if Sonier can come back
strong this year he may be a key
factor. ‘Our pitching will be
varied early in the season. We’ll
have to throw three or four pit­
chers a game until we know who
can handle it.’
The loss of Johnston will give
many new pitchers a chance for
some quality playing time. There
are four freshman and four
sophomore pitchers who may get
the chance for some valuable ex­
perience in ECC competition.
This may prove valuable later in
the season, and will help lead the
team in future years.
At the designated hitter’s spot
are a few players who may be
worked into the lineup. Jim
Traintos and junior Mike Clancy
may hit here when not pitching,
and there are a few freshman who
could manage the responsibility.
Coach Myers certainly has some
ideas, but he will need a con­
tinually changing lineup until so­
meone emerges to fill the position
on a more permanent basis. In
this department, only time will
tell.
This year’s season includes
tough ECC rivals such as
Lafayette, Delaware, and four
year defending champion Rider.
Also on the schedule are strong
contenders like St. Joe’s, Tem­
ple, and Villanova. The season
opener will be in Sanford, Florida
on March 18. The Dragons will
play 8-10 games there before
returning home to play Widener
on the 29th.
This years team shows promise
to do well. The pitching staff is
strong and somewhat experienc­
ed, even with the loss of
Johnston, and defensively the
team is fairly sound. Althciigh
last year’s team batting average
was only .235, this year’s team
shows itself to be more of a threat
to opposing pitchers. Says Train­
tos, ‘There may be no real power
hitters, except possibly Dave
[Elsier], but there are plenty of
single hitters. Our team has a
good attitude and if we work hard
and play together as a team, we
could become real contenders.’
Injuries shouldn’t hurt the team
as there are good replacement
players who can get the job done.
The pitching staff can hold out
against a fdw minor injuries
through the season, and there are
plenty of players to fill the out­
field. Third ba.se and first base are
also covered, but coach Myers’
main concern is the middle in­
field. It's not as strong as he’d
like it to be with the starting
players healthy. Should they
loose Szafranski or Leahy, he
doesn’t know what will happen.
Outright, Coach Myers’ at­
titude toward this year’s season is
positive. He feels his team will be
ready for the competition it will
face, and believes they can come
out ahead. The team has a good
combination of both new and
seasoned talent, and is mostly
well-rounded. The team may not
feature any superstars, but they
do have the most important fac­
tor in a winning season; unity.
When everybody works together
and plays to his abilities, it can
only lead to a good season.

If not for one road trip to
Bucknell University back on
February 24, 1988, and the en­
suing 84-74 loss, the Drexel
University women’s basketball
team would be boasting an
11-game winning streak going in­
to the East Coast Conference
Championships this weekend at
Rider College in Lawrenceville.

league. Seniors Mike Powell and
Howard Silvers led the team in
goals scored, and the “ road run­
ner” line up of Jim Dignazio,
Mike Mulaney, and Bob Brody
has proven to be too hot to han­

posing defenses.
Another factor of the Dragon’s
success was their steady defense
and goaltending. Juniors Dave
Frank. Bob Nawalinski and Mike
Nagla have created a virtual brick
wall for goalie Chris Donato.
Donato fifnished the season with
two consecutive shutouts and cur­

All playoff games are held at
the General Washington Ice Rink.
The finals start Saturday. March

Conference, 'especially because

Bucknell is the X4 team coming

that we have to execute better

have to concentrate on defense. I
