Next semester the students will have access to the Job Location and Development
Program available in the Campus Center
(Room 180).
Carolyn Koloski, director of the program, says, "The program is open to all
students regardless of financial need."
"Basically, the program consists of offcampus job placing while 'trying' to implement on campus jobs as well." The program does not place students after graduation; they must be in the process of completing their education.
Thirty-five students are presently involv-
ed in the program. Their jobs range from
IBM in Fishkill to the area banks. The program is open to both commuter and resident students. "All one needs to do is fill
out an application," says Koloski.
Available jobs are posted on a bulletin,
board in the. career placement office."
Students are free to come in and 'browse.'
The program is partly a referral service,
explains Koloski, although they often try
and place students in accordance with their
career.' "Hopefully more major related
placing will be present in the future," says
Koloski. She also hopes that the students
will take advantage of this program.

Globetrotters Are Coming
Hi
The world renowned Harlem Globetrotters will bring their comical brand of
basketball magic to the Marist College McCann Center on December 15.
Starting time for the event, which is
sponsored by the Marist College athletic
department, is 7:30 p.m. In addition to the
familiar Globetrotters on-court antics, area
fans will see a half-time variety show
featuring the Droguetts, who will perform
a most unusual hat tossing routine, Wazyr,
one. of the world's most exciting hand

The Globetrotters have played more than
15,000 games in 97 countries before more
than 98 million people. They.hold the all
time basketball attendance record of
75,000 people set in' Berlin's Olympic
Stadium in 1951. Last year millions more
saw the Globetrotters on tour and on television.
The Globetrotters popularity is not
limited to one country or one continent.
They have amazed basketball fans worldwide and are popular in small towns as well
as large cities. The Globetrotters have performed in more than 1,600 cities in the
United States.
Tickets for the event are now on sale at
all Ticketron outlets, Mid-Hudson Civic
Center, Abrarhs Music in Kingston, Sears
in Wappingers Falls, Lloyds in Middletown, and the McCann Center at
Marist. All seats must be reserved in advance.
Marist has, yet to officially announce a
replacement "for the position of Residence
Director of Champagnat Hall for next
semester after the resignation of Anthony
Drakeford. Drakeford has been Resident
Director since September of 1979.
Drakeford officially resigned as of
November 19th from the position. He said,
"The Residence Director is a 24 hour job
because you never know when they want
you." He explains that the job locks him
into a post that warrants him to account
for his actions at all times.
Drakeford is taking on a position with
the Poughkeepsie School District's Magnet
school program. "It is a federally funded
the school district," he says. He feels that
his field of work will take him where he
wants to go. That place is coaching. He has
coached basketball and football at
Poughkeepsie High School and saw that his
coaching was creating a conflict with his
duties in Champagnat Hall.
"I prefer coaching," he says in response
to what made him decide to leave Marist.
As well, he says, "The school district job is
an eight to four situation, which allows me
to have the rest of the evening to myself.
In response to whether he had any advice
for the person that would replace him- as
Residence Director, Drakeford says, "Not
really, because the job is one of trial and error. I can't tell them what to expect." He
explained that one can prepare for the job
'but they don't know the job until they see
what happens.

So goes another
Free at last
The key chains, the posters, and the sharp
uniforms are all very nice additions to the
basketball games-but they are not what is bringing the fans to the McCann Center. The
pjayers are. For 50' a person, one can't really beat the shows the Red Foxes have been
putting on lately on the court.- ,
„ While the team has been pumping and
jumping and exhibiting skillful and entertaining shows, there has been quite another
show alive in the stands. It began Saturday
evening when 2 banners were flashed among
the students reading, "We Want Todd" and .
"Don't Ignore 44.!' Soon afterwards there
were chants for Todd and minutes later the
fans were on their feet stomping and yelling
"We Want Todd" as the pep band beat
along.
Just who is this Todd person? He "is a
member of the team this season and has been
for the past two. His name is Todd Hasler.
He was a freshman superstar^breaking
school records, and always scoring in double
figures. He sat out the last half of last season
-but hopefully he is back for good. His entrance into this season truly was an exciting
one.
The Red Foxes played Pratt Institute this
past Monday night. Like most- people expected, the competition was not near tough
enough for the Marist squad. Steve Smith
moved-the ball to the basket with grace,
while the crowd watched it slide in. Sharpe
popped his jumpers from the corner,
DeWinne ripped down the rebounds, while
Crotty dribbled in and out of his opponents.
The team as a whole looked great. But that
was not enough for-the crowd, they still
wanted Hasler. .
.The banners were there again, the chants
were as loud as ever. After" the first half it
looked as though the effort was going-to
prove futile once again. It did not.
With 6 minutes "and 17 seconds on the
clock, Todd "Free" Hasler took off his
warm-up and took his place on the court. He
did so to a standing ovation. And Hasler,
with the rest of his teammates made the
show go on. He finished the game with 6
points and 3 assists. Not bad for 6 minutes.
No, this is not a tear jerker of a movie. It
is a real live situation. There is a member of
the basketball squad that is just as capable as
many of his teammates yet he has not been
seeing any playing time. Hopefully, this, is
the start of something good. No one' expects
Hasler to make it to the Basketball Hall of
Fame this year. They just want to see him
have a chance.
So, now the team is not only on its way to Division I basketball, it is on its way to being
a working unit-as a whole. Every part is
beginning to function. The bird is "Free,"
"free at last."

Student's Wishes
By Chris Campbell
Once again its that time of the year.
Time for hanging lights, searching for
presents, buying a tree, arid most of all,
time for asking Santa for something
special. Some 150 students were polled on
that ever important question "What do
You Want For Christmas?" Their answers
ranged from very serious to quite the
outrageous.
About 60% of the students polled asked
for the"basic Christmas presents, a doll,
stereo, camera, or a calculator. But some
were a little unusual. Jerry "BB'S"
Marcley, a•freshman, said, "Myvery own
Asteroid gamelrwhich always registers me
first." Jim Hage, a junior, responded a little greedily, "I want a life size train of my
very own, so I can be the conductor."
Some 5% of the students responded to
this question with Marist College in mind.
Michael "Crowbar" Wiese, a junior said,
"Better on campus housing to encourage
students to stay on campus." Charles
Lamberta, a junior, said, "A registrars of-
fice that can tell me exactly about a 'liberal
art' is."
This question, when posed to the Marist
athletic department, brought out responses
like "more wins, more points" and "national recognition." Barry Jamison a
senior basketball player said "I'd really
like more playing time, but most of all I'd
like to bring Maureen Morrow back to
Marist." Andrew "Crickett" Homola, a
junior and Marist soccer goalie, added "I
sure would appreciate a smaller goal
behind me."
Many students, some 30%,. spoke of
possible higher grades in specific classes.
Most^of them asked for a 3.0 or above
cum, but John Nugent, a sophomore said,
"I'm not greedy, I'll take a "2.0" and
Susan "Duby" Dubatowka, a senior, added "Cum Laude sure "would be nice at
graduation."
. ^
Probably the one response that could be
shared by all came from Bil Renrick, a
senior, who said "I think the return of the
hostages and just peace oh earth would
make this Christmas perfect for everyone."

Santa's elves may be keeping tabs on
Marist students this season, but other
•members of the Marist community are also
being watched as well. Their Christmas
wishes are sure to brighten the holiday
spirit.
Robert Kaminski, soon to be assistant
Resident Director of Champagnat Hall,
would like a trip to Bora Boar.
Although Mrs. Pat Comeau, Secretary
of the Campus Center, would also like a
vacation from the ice and snow, her choice
is not as remote. She will settle for a trip to
Bermuda.
"All A's," responds Dr. D.A. Drennen,
and his students are sure to share his
Christmas wish.
Mr. Laurence Sullivan has aninteresting
wish, "Always to have my first name spelled correctly."
Gregg Finch, Director of Dining Services
answers, "A new kitchen."
On the more sensitive side, there are
several people who share the wish Tor peace
and security over the holidays. Mrs. Angela
Katopis, a receptionist at the Business Office, would like "peace all over the world."
Dr. Italo Benin, Mr. John Ritschdorff,
and Mr. Joe Waters share Katopis*
Christmas wish.
Dr. Eugene Best is more specific and
would like to see "an end to the raping and
killing that is going on in El Salvador and
other parts of the country..."
Although Christmas is just around the
corner, some people still have not made up
their minds as to their wishes. Resident
Director . of Champagnat, Anthony
Drakeford responds, "I have no idea."
As Santa checks his list this season, it is
hoped that he will not be so "wrapped up"
with Marist students' Christmas presents
and overlook other members of the community.

Christian Faith and the Draft
Paul Christian was a member of the
Trenton State College Pro-Life Committee
as an undergraduate. He lias been Northeast Regional.Coordinator for the National Youth Pro-Life Coalition (NYPLC).
He is presently a member of Pax Christi,
the International Catholic movement for
Peace, and Prolifers for Survival, an antinuke pro-life group.
Christian received his masters from Fordham University and is a campus minister
at Trenton State College in New Jersey. He
has spoken many times on pro-life issues in
the U.S.A. and Europe. He is also a certified draft counselor for the Diocese of
Trenton. Campus Ministry invited him on
campus to speak on issues of Pro-Life on
November 12.
by Pari Christian
"Oh, the times, they are a changin*,"
Bob Dylan wrote a few years back. Those
famous words appeared in the Signal a couple of weeks ago in connection with the
successful march on the Statehouse by
Trenton State students. As I walked down
State Street that Monday it occured to me
that indeed this is true, but not all for the
better.
Once again this fall I observe with
sadness young adults being required by law
to register for a possible draft. Many signed up without serious consideration of
what the implications of a draft could be.
. Many others (wedon't know exactly how
many since the Selective Service System has
not released any figures) did not bother to
register without considering the seriousness
of their failure to comply with the new law.
The maximum punishment for convicted
offenders is a $10,000 fine and five years in
prison.
I am one of the more fortunate ones. I
missed having to register for the old draft
by only a couple of months and am above
the registration age in the new law. But I
remember well the many draft resisters and
deserters of the last decade arid a half - tens
of thousands of whom chose to move to
Canada or elsewhere rather than fight.
FOR MANY OF these, this was the only
option they had (besides jail) to military
service because they were not prepared to
document claims as conscientious objectors
(CO's). Their lives have been changed
forever, and some will never return to the
United States.
The official teaching of the-Catholic
Church on war and conscientious objection
has not been uniform. For the first 200
years, one could not be a soldier and a
Christian at the same time.. All Christians
were conscientious objectors during the
time that they were a persecuted minority.
The conversion of the Roman Emporer
Constantine began a process that merged
the Catholic Church and Roman State. The
concept of a just war developed during this
time. There were clearly defined limits to
what could be considered a just war and
Christians could not fight in a war that was
unjust.
The low point of the Catholic Church's
teaching on war saw the development of
the Crusades. Almost all rules were thrown out the window; even non-combatants
could be slaughtered in the name of God.
Fortunately, the Catholic Church has
not kept the "crusade mentality.'' The official teaching on war, and the conscientious objection, has come very close to
full-circle in the past few decades.
THE CATHOLIC CHURCH did not
provide much support for conscientious
objectors during World War II. In one now.
famous case, Franz Jagerstatter, an
Austrian Catholic, was executed by the
Nazis for refusing to serve in Hitler's armies. He firmly believed that the war was
unjust but even Catholic Church officials
insisted he had no right to question the
morality of the war he was being forced to
fight in.
As with many other issues, Vatican II
was an event that saw a clear change in emphasis of the teaching of the Catholic
Church. "Moreover," declared the constitution, on the,Church in the modern
SINCE PRESIDENT CARTER announced his intention to reinstitute
TODAY, THE CATHOLIC Church is
doing more for those of its members who,
for reasons of conscience, feel obligated to
refrain from service in the armed forces.
Hopefully,' other churches will; do the
asme. (The United Methodist Church, for
example, has gone on record as opposing a
peacetime military draft, saying that it
could lead to "unauthorized war.")
As attractive as it sounds, it will never do
to walk into an induction center and sing a
few bars of Arlo Guthrie's "Alice's
Restaurant".if you find yourself a conscientious objector.

Reminiscing
by Peter Fredsall
By Marybeth Kearney
There was nowhere to park the car, a
long wait for the elevator, and so many
new faces everywhere. But it didn't matter;
once all the suitcases and boxes were moved into the room, I wouldn't have to repack
till finals. And that was a long time to
come.
Or so I thought. Christmas and exams
(my favorite combination) have suddenly
arrived, just as I've finally memorized my
schedule. Although trying to catch up on
fourteen weeks of work in the one that is
left, reminiscing about the past semester is
much better for calming anxiety.

New Club
Among the new organizations offered by
Marist this year is the Criminal Justice
club, formed recently by Senior Irene
Bolan at the suggestion- of Dr. Barbara
Lavin. An attempt was made last year at
such formation, but the effort failed due to
a lack of organization, according to Bolan.
Bolan clearly spelled out the club's objectives: "We want to provide people with
more information about the field of
Criminal Justice, and to act as a supplement and to reinforce what is learned in
classes." Bolan felt it important to point
out that non-criminal justice majors would
find joining worthwhile, adding, "We
would welcome anyone and everyone."
Nobody can learn too much about it."
However, the club's functions seem
especially pertinent to those in the field
because the organization does attempt to
provide students with word of job
possibilities.
The club intends to sponsor speaking
engagements by experts in the Criminal
Justice field, and possibly films related to
Criminal Justice issues. The club now has
twelve active members, and the program

world, "it seems right that laws make
humane provisions for the case of those
who for reasons of conscience refuse to
bear arms, proided however, that they
agree to serve the human community in
some other way."
Every Pope in the lifetime of most college students today has spoken out strongly
against the injustice of war. Paul VI stated
it most succinctly in his address to the
United Nations on Oct. 4, 1965 when he
declared, "War, never again." The
Catholic Church teaches that total war with '
modern weaponry can never by considered
just.
* The,Catholic Church also teaches that
orders given by a superior which are immoral cannot be followed. Pope-Pius XII
said it as early at 1953: _"There is n o right
to order an immoral act; there, exists no
right for this at all, no obligation and no
permission to perform an immoral act even
if it is commaridedi even if refusing to act
brings the worst*possible personal harm."
(Address to the sixth International Congress of Penal Law: Oct. 3,1953.)
Of-course, there is ample biblical precedent in the Judeo-Christian tradition to
substantiate the claim of a conscientious
objector. The fifth commandment does not
say, "thou shall not kill unless..." Jesus
preached love for one's enemies arid refused to lead a Jewish revolt against the •
Roman occupiers.

the union address, the Bishop's Administrative Board of the United States
Catholic Conference has published a statement which includes the following: "We
regard this question in all its dimensions as
a central element in Catholic teaching on
the morality of war. First, we support the
right of conscientious objection as a valid
moral position, derived from the gospel
and Catholic teaching, and recognized as
well in the U.S. civil law." (Feb. 15,1980)
As a matter of fact, the Catholic Church
not only permits conscientious objection
(as well as military service) but has called
for government recognition of selective
conscientious objection, that is, objection
to a particular war without being opposed
to all war. This option is not recognized by
the U.S^V-and CO's will not be able to
validate such a claim if future draft laws
follow past patterns.
: Fortunately, the Catholic Church has
not been caught napping this time. During
the 60s arid 70s, the Catholic Church-was
ill-prepared to assist its many members
who, through strongly held moral and
religious beliefs, opposed participation in
the military.
This time around, the Diocese of Treri"ton, through the Department of Social
Concerns, has established a network pf 26
trained and certified draft counsellors to
assist those who request help. In fact, it
seems that the tables are-now reversed many students have remained uninformed
and even apathetic in regards to the very
real possibility of a draft in the near future.

have participated in championship events.
These veterans will combine their talents
with a large crop of freshmen who will play
a major part in the team's efforts.
Among the newcomers are three exceptional divers who all have the ability to
place in the top twelve in the conference,
according to Van Wagner. Steve Maniaci,
Robert McCarthy and Rich Berger will all
help to make Marist tough in the diving
events. Maniaci is called the best diver ever
at Marist, and should be among the conference leaders. McCarthy is unusual
because he will be entered in both diving
and swimming categories for the Red Foxes. These three divers will improve together
as they gain collegiate experience.
Other key freshmen are Robert Vializ
(freestyle and intermediate), Jim Delarede
(sprint freestyle), Chris Sausto (freestyle
and butterfly), and Paul * ZurNieden
(breaststroke and freestyle). Van Wagner
says Vializ should place in every event he
swims for Marist.
Van Wagner ses five schools as being
contenders for the regular season conference championship: Manhattan,
Ramapo, C.C.N.Y., Adelphi and L.I.U.
However, he emphasizes that the key indication of whether or not their season is
good will be how they perform at the championship meet. "We have several quality
swimmers who can help us in a championship meet situation as opposed to a dual
meet situation. Any college program that is
serious about the athlete has to use the approach of performing well at the championship meet. We'll put more emphasis on
peaking for that championship.''

Doc 'Coach of the Year'
Howard "Doc" Goldman, head coach
of the Marist College Soccer team for the
last 17 years, has been named by his peers
in the Tri-State Soccer Conference as
Coach of the Year.
" .The 1980 season was a spectacular one
for Goldman's Red Fox Club with a perfect.
8-0 record in conference play, a 16-2
overall record, a New York State ranking
of first in Division II, a national ranking of
eighth in the nation in Division II, and a
postseason playoff. berth in the NCAA
Division II championships. "
Over the years, Goldman has compiled a
120106-18 record. Since 1975 Goldman's
hootersi have compiled an amazing 79-22-3
record; which included berths in the ECAC

Having played midfield while at Cortland State University, Goldman stresses a
controlled and finesse game. He relies on
his team to pass well and move quickly on
the field; displaying more style than power.
Doc graduated from the state university

Dancersize
A team that has been organized by
Marist College has attracted more participants than the football team. "Dancercise" was recently organized under the
leadership of Anne Marie Calonita and
Lauren Devlin. Calonita and Devlin decided to organize the class because there were
few women sports activities at Marist.
Most women agreed that it is necessary for
some sort of exercise in order to burn off
those extra calories put on by the delicious
cafeteria food. So far, dahcercise has been
successful. It has attracted more than 95
girls. The girls are so enthusiastic that most
of them invested in a special shorts and tee
shirt outfit which advertise 'Marist Dancercise.'
The classes are held in the McCann
dance room on Wednesday at 9:15-10:15
and Thursday at 8:00-9:00 p.m. New participants are always welcome to come down
and shape up while learning some dance at
the same time'. "We just felt it was
something we wanted to do for ourselves,"
said Calonita. "But we obviously weren't
alone." Devlin agreed. "It's so much fun,
and we're really doing something positive
for ourselves. So come on girls, Dancercise!"

team, Timberlake has displayed the leadership qualities necessary for a successful
campaign this year.
Timberlake states, "The most important
aspect in assuming this role is that I lead by
example on the court." He continues, "We
have the- talent, personnel, and the
coaching needed for a successful year. My
role will be to bring these factors together,
togethernesses the theme for this year and
its my job to help coordinate that.*'
Timberlake's example on the court has
already shown him to be a team leader. In
named
an exhibition contest against the Portuguese National Team, Timberlake tallied'
14 points and 11 rebounds, while in the
season opener against Northeastern
Timberlake amassed 9 points and 17. rebounds. Most reeently Timberlake tallied
24 points and 12 rebounds in two "come

qualifying for the NCAA Division II

unifying the team these goals, could very
well be within the grasp of this years' Red
Fox Squad.

third year player. Army displayed excellent
Sutside shooting and ball-control. A big
downfall to the Marist cause was Pam
Green's 4 early fouls, because a recent problem for the team is the containing of
Army's predominantly tall team. Laurie
Hiebenak led Marist's scorers with 12
points, and Powers had 10. Melissa Miles

••• And so the drama is ended. With 6:17 to
go in the game against Pratt, the'banner
waving, foot stomping crowd got what they
wanted. Todd Hasler, 6*3" shooting guard
from Forrestville, Ct. was entering the
game. Hasler, who had not seen a minute's
time in the team's preceding three games,
wasted„no time in electrifying the crowd
with two sparkling assists and, later sank
three buckets (one a patented 25' jumper
that hit all net) to help Marist ice the game.
But why did it take so long to answer the
people's plea? Hasler, who as a junior
holds Marist scoring records and was the
starting guard for two years in a row, was
now riding the bench. Why?
"It just seemed like Todd's heart wasn't
in it," says coach. Ron Petro. "He'd go to
practice, but he just felt like he lost the feel
for shooting the ball. I don't know if he
wasn't practicing enough on his own or
what, but he just wouldn't shoot. Todd has
always been the best shooter on the team, I
mean the guys unstoppable. But if he won't
shoot..." But why wouldn't a guv with
such raw talent, and such fan support, not
shoot? ..,-,...
"I just didn't feel it," said Hasler. "If
you don't feel good about your shot, but
you shoot it anyway* you can't hit. If I'm
not gonna hit my shots, I shouldn't be taking them. Let the other guys shoot, I'd only
be taking away from them."
But somehow, for some reason, the
Hasler story changed. "He came, alive in
practice," said coach Petro. "Hestarted to
shoot the ball, and shoot it well. Whether it
was his riding the bench or seeing the team
win,some games without him, I don't
know, but he just started to play like he
can. And we can certainly use the best
shooter on the team on the court."
And if he was used this time just to
satisfy his legion of fans that would be
reason enough. Banner after banner and
cheer after cheer called for nothing but Mr.
Hasler's appearance. Was it the fans desire
that made Petro change his mind about
playing Hasler? "Who knows, maybe that
just did work on my subconscious a.bit,"
said Petro. "Just mavbe."
