Frank Scott - New Food Service Director _
New Food Service Director
by Thomas Hassett
.and Veronica Shea
The promotional move of.Greg Finch to
Drew University in New Jersey brings "to
Marist a new Food Service"Director, Frank .
Scott, from Marist College's Class of 1972V-"
As an Accounting major from Dover
Plains, Scott received an internship with
Saga, Marist's previous food service. Upon
his graduation, he was~employed by this
company at the State'University at New
Paltz and Manhattan College. Scott comes
to Seller's and Marist from a desire to get
out of New York City." "
\
\ ,
"Marist has changed a lot since I was
here," says Scott, noting the addition of
the McCann Center ^and tennis courts, as
well as Marist's-co-educational status.
Now that Scott has returned to his alma
mater in a new role, he would like to invoke
some changes of his own., "1^1 like to get
students involved in things out in the dining
room,", explains Scott, "I want to do some
things to keep students from going through
the usual line every night." His suggestions
include a "Build Your Own Taco" stand, a
waffle excursion, and hotdogs- with toppings! He hopes to eventually hold ;once-aweek specials to be advertised in advance
for maximum student participation. In addition, Seiler's sets up monthly specials,
such as the Breakfast at Tiffany's,-held last

Scott is eager to meet with Interhouse
Council on"a bi-monthly basis to ask them
what they, as representatives of the student
body, would like to' see changed. "I
understand there is a Food-Committee at
Marist, but I don't know how effective it is

Dear Editor,
As you may know, as the rest
of the Marist Community, a rug
was stolen from • House I of
Champagnai Hall. As you may
also know, our off campus
residences were "visited" by
. Joseph Waters,' Director' of
Security, and Peter Arhato, Coordinator of Housing in hope that
we might be able to help them in
the search of the rug.
- --However, in-their search for
help, Mr. Watery and Mr.'Amato
were treated to a tour of our
apartment, where each room was .
looked at.' Due to our lack of
familiarity with the law, we showed them the grand tour of our
house. In looking back, we feel
that this was an unorthodox approach to getting tin contact with
individual students. By moving
off campus we had hoped to
avoid confrontations such as this
with the campus administration.
We feel that this is a" problem. .
There is also a problem with
our peers as far as rumors occur.
In a small community such as
Marist, rumors tend to start
whether, they have any real basis
or "not. Our alleged taking of the
rug. was-the leading rumor .on
campus last week,, which was
totally unfounded. We felt hurt
by the accusations made by both
administrators and our.peers.
My roommates and I are more
than willing to help out with any
' problems that may arise on campus. However we feel that these
problems should stay on campus
where they belong.
Sincerely yours;

This past week House I of Champagnat
suffered the loss of an attractive and expensive carpet that "had been installed in their

It is a gross injustice to the residents of
that house that they have-to be without the
rug. Not because the particular carpet' is
missing; the lounges have been without
carpeting" for ~years witr\6u't""complaint. But
an attitude was being brought across from
the administration to the student; a feeling
that they were trying to make life on campus
better and beautify the living conditions for
the resident.
But other problems have arisen because of
the rug theft. Whether it was due to jokes,
rumors, ^or just plain guessing, some
students were considered prime suspects of
the criminal act. Not only students but even
administration (security, housing) used
whatever criteria they had to question
students and even search off-campus apartmentsin an effort to reacquire the carpet.
This is all well and good from the aspect of
getting the- rug back, but when rumors fly
and feelings get hurt the problem has gonet o o f a n , ' , tj - -~~

Whoever has stolen the rug'; has not' only
cheated House I'from an asset that the other
lounges have, but has pitted,perfectly honest
people against one another in an effort to do
their jobsi It is hoped that this situation and
all its drawbacks can be avoided in the
future.
It should be noted that the college is only
interested in reaquiring the rug, and will accept it back from anyone with no questions
asked.

_ Sunday, January 25, 1981,- the day the
hostages would return to U.S. soil. Our
goal: to witness this event.
It\was a little'past 10:00 a.m. as we
entered Stewart Airport. We were on foot,
since cars were not allowed past the main
gate. As we entered, we were told by State
Police that it was .useless to try to get to a
position where we could personally witness
the landing and departure of the hostages.
This advice made us even more determined
to reach our goal.
As we walked up the main road of the
airport, we 'were not . interrupted by
anyone. This was surprising, since State
Police, MP's, and officials of all sorts were
visible all around. As we reached'the top of
the Hill, we were met with barriors, blocking all civilians from the area. To get
around this, we decided to start journeying
through the backs of the large buildings to
the right of us.
With no idea where we were heading, we
continued on until we met up with two
State Troopers guarding an entrance to a
runway. To add a little adventure to the
day, we approached them and asked where
the hostages would land. They replied that
they would be arriving on the other side of
_the large hill which they indicated. We were
also informed that we were-not permitted

A well publicized "very important"
basketballweekend ended in dismal failure
for the Marist College basketball. team
Saturday night after losing to both Monmouth and Saint Francis.
The two defeats loomed larger than ,
usual for different reasons. The first loss
was a lowpoint because a victory would
have ultimately assured a first place finish
in the Big Apple Conference for Marist.
They still have a shot in that they pla\
Monmouth again, but a victory would have
left them sitting pretty.
The St. Francis game represented .a:
strong shot at beating a division I team for Marist, but they lost a heartbreaker, 57-56,
when Gil Padillas' last second shot missed,
the bucket.
...
';.. In the Monmouth game Bill DeWinne
led all scorers with 25 points, and topped
the rebounder list as well with 10. Although
Marist led at halftime by 2 points, their offense fell apart in the last 3 minutes, one of
the main reasons being Todd Hasler fouling out. Hasler finished with 12 points, and
has become a potent offensive weapon
since his reinstatement in the lineup.
St. Francis was also a site for Marist's
offense to fall apart after a halftime lead,
this time by 10 points. Steve Smith led the
Marist scores with 14 points, while Rufus
Cooper tallied 12. Marist also had outside
problems in this contest, not the least of
which - was swingman Danny Sharpe's
absence.
In related basketball news, Marist an

Stickmen lose lead
And Game 6-4
By Tim Breuer
The Marist College Hockey Club lost a
closely matched game last week to Best Cycle at the Mid-Hudson Civic Center.
Although the loss was the fifth straight for
Marist, things looked promising for the
Red Foxes as the game stood at a one-all tie
midway thru the first period.
In the second period Marist took a,2-l
lead, but Best Cycle toughened up their
defense and with some fine checking and
quick passes, not only tied the game, but
went on to take a 5-2 lead after a flurish of
shots to the net.
-- Marist was led in scoring by Sophomore
Tony Cardone, who added two goals and
one assist to the contest. "So far we're at a
stage in the year where we are finally getting to know-one another," commented
Cardone after the game. "We still have
plenty of games left-to show the fans that
have come to our games that we are for
r e a l . " •. -
;
._ y ..:.•
.;
-''-
, Cardone, who now has 3 points in his
last two games sees the lack of coaching a
problem for the team. "We just don't have
a coach. The two Captains, John Kurtz and
Mike Caridi have done a fine job of keeping us organized, but we still are lacking the
stategy needed for us to win the real close
games."
Marist's next game is on Monday night
at 11 p.m. at the Civic Center. '•_ - "
