CLOSET CENSORS UNFAIR TACTICS I an editorial

i; In any microcosm, a variety of people is likely
to be found. But lately, I've become aware that
Mercyhurst has an overabundance of sniveling,
opinionated, cowards. I'm speaking of those
faculty, administrators, and students who
somehow believe that God has died and left them
boss. • fL
I personally am becoming very weary of those
at the College who believe it their right to con-
fiscate a newspaper because they believe one
article to be offensive. Those types of tactics are
neither fair nor mature and indeed smack of
Nazism. I f
I personally am disgusted upon hearing from a
fellow student that a faculty member disagreed

HURST WEIGHS! ABORTION ISSUE

Editor's Note: It is often times the unpleasant task
of the newspaper journalist to report on very ex-
plosive and controversial issues when the possibility
of being violently attacked exists on both sides. But it
is of equal importance to report situationslas they
exist with a minimal amount of bias and a maximum
amount of accurate observation. .?
On Thursday, January 23, in the coffeeshop of the
Student Union, a very tense situation existed. As
previously advertised, a pro-abortion ffilm was
presented to the Mercyhurst student body by Gret-
way involved in performing an abortion will be ex-
communicated from the Catholic Church. To many
people this seemed^ to be a very strong, tactless
statement which was entirely out of line. But in view
of the fact that Mercyhurst is a Christian institution,
this comment which indeedlis very powerful, must
always be a serious consideration in the minds of the
Catholic student faced with this controversy.
In the en<t the abortion issue is up to the student to
decide in his own fnind and conscience, weighing very
carefully both sides of the issue and investigating for ** - ,

institution, the opportunity for an equal response by
the pro-life organization was made available. So, in
addition to the pro-abortion film J there was a slide
show depicting the stand of the pro-life organization
on the right to life by Mrs. Susan Stroh. J
At the meeting, there were also various other

IV. NON-SMOKERS, BAND TOGETHER
A group of Mercyhurst students and faculty con-
cerned with noiusmokers' rights have embarked on
an effort to get smoking out of the classrooms of the
college. The group is currently circulating a petition
to be presented to $he mean demanding that no-
smoking ordinances for classrooms be enforced for
* ^ xT . _T
In a statement for the Merciad, Mr. N. Louis Necci,
Director of Maintainence and Operations for the
college gave the anti-smoking crusade his full sup-
port noting that the absence of cigarette butts,
ashes, and smoke residue would greatly reduce
maintenance requirements for the classrooms. At a
time of great cost consciousness at Mercyhur st it was
noted that this would represent some savings of tome
and money for the school. * jMj Sk^l
Students who are interested in signing the petition,
which does not infringe on the right of students to
smoke outside the classrooms but only restricts
smoking in enclosed areas, should sign a copy which
is available in the Info. Office.
V. ATTENTION DAY STUDENTS
The day student mailboxes are now installed and
ready to be put into service. The new boxes are
located in the basement of Preston Hall near the mail
room. J i
These boxes are for inter-college mau only! All
mail coming from outside the college will be returned
boxes at the end of each term. >
Due to thejarge number of* day students, two
students will be assigned to use most of the boxes.
On Monday, February 3, Tuesday, February 4, and
Wednesday, February 5, the mailboxes | will be
assigned. It is necessary for each day student
desiring a box to come down to the mailroom in the
basement of Preston to find out their box number,
combination, and whom they will be sharing their
mailbox with. Any questions will be answered at that
time by Jean Coffey. '& ft

Coach Fox Resigns

THE KING •
by Colleen NcManamon
On Saturday, January 25,
Mercyhurst Head ^Basketball
Coach Richard Fox resigned
"effective immediately."
Assistant Coach Dave
Markey replaces him at the
Laker helm. | fj|
• | In the hastily called press
conference Saturday, Mr. Fox
explained, "A light came on
and I didn't want to do it
anymore.—No way." I
Mr. Fox dispelled rumors
that his health was the reason
for his resignation but in-
dicated "When it came to
putting myself back into the
program| after being sick, I
discovered I didn't want to do
it. I didn't want to totally
commit myself to-; the
basketball team." * '\
Mr. Fox told the Merciad
Monday, "Despite the fine
efforts of the players, I
became very discouraged
with a lack* of dedication on
the team, which has been
influenced by many things. I
think they (the team) feel it's
them against the cam-
pus.... The majority of
students could care less about
basketball! f*# ; m.
Fox believes -that the
biggest problems the
basketball team faces is a
financial one, stating that
"Scheules and programs far
exceed our college's ability to
pay for them.... An awful lot of
Mercyhurst's basketball
program is glitter. There's
not a lot of foundation un-
derneath." •>?.• k t # At ithe? Saturday press
Although he resigned as
basketball coach, Fox will
continue as Athletic
Director and will devote his

Sport Opinion
In the second edition of this column we intend to lend a
helping hand to the Meatball sports editor's Hockey column.
We feel that after last Saturday's exciting victory over a
tough Strong Vincent squad it's about time for a little
Hockey recognitioa E&
We stated last week that we would report the sports as we
saw it happen. Well, we weren't seeing too well Jast
Saturday night, but we'll try our best to relay the facts as we
saw them, through empty beer mugs. f
A huge crowd appeared at the Glenwood Forum to greet
the 38th Street Bullies as they skated onto the ice. We
thought it would be a tough night for the Bullies when Frank
(Fats) Garwol almost broke his stick and his neck by fan-
ning on an easy practice shot, all which had Strong Vincent
fans and players showing signs of relief.,
The plan worked perfectly though, because, following the
|
face dff, the Bullies looked as though they would skate away
with it as Joe (Dapper) Dolan, O'Polka'ed the puck into the
net with his eyes closed. The team then puckered around for
a while before S.V. tied the score to end the first period; ft*
Since Peter Puck failed to show for his intermission show,
the teams quickly faced off again, this time with S.V. ap-
plying the pressure. They got lucky and scored after a hotly
contested stretch of time which saw Rut go to the penalty for
tripping and Smacky Baxter for backing out of a fight.
With S.V. seemingly in full control of the game, Terry
(Flamingo) Sullivan tied the score* with a shot that sur-
prised Terry as well as the S.V. goaltender. This set the
stage for an exciting final period of action. B Wt.
The Bullies, probably helped by all the foreign newspaper
J;
men in the pressbox smoking that foreign tobacco, came out
sky high for the final period. Rut put the game away for the
Bullies with a slapshot Bobby Hull would have been proud
of.
his Koehler secret, failed to see too much action because the
team thought! that since the rink was made out? of the
overflowing beer from the stands, he would eat up the ice.
Jim (Meatball) Marzano, scrapping for all the gusto he
could get, got a good taste of the action, seeing his face was
in the rink most of?his time on the ice. Ed (Inchworm)
numerous scouts present from the Ice Capades while John
(Hollow leg) Daley finally proved he was a dedicated
athlete by not joining the beer drinkers in the stands.
Last Saturday actually proved to be a most exciting
sports day without the boob tube or the addition of a men's
varsity basketball game. We sincerely wish to congratulate
the Lakerettes for an excellent display of basketball.|lt's a
shame you haven't had a proper facility for practice or else
court. J gb
Hockey is a reality at Mercyhurst in the eyes of the
players who dish out their own budget, and fans whose
number becomes larger each week..,We can only look to the
future and guess that Hockey will become a club or varsity
sport. But in order for this to occur, you the players and fans
must keep your determination equal to last Saturday's
