The years, which seemecLto slip by ever so quickly, were fillecNvith myriad experiences. Stfrne we welcomed and will treasure, for- ever, others we tried to avoid and now. try to forget, but all have, in ways we ma y not even recognize, helped us grow, mature and become the individuals- ' we are today. The events of the future will likewise effect our develop- ment, but perhaps no experience will affect us as greafly as has our years at ' Westfield State. . Our. college careers have indeed been a voyage. A voy- age which has left us nearer our goals and hopefully closer to fulfilling our dreams. As we look toward the future let us remember the words of the late Rotffsrt F. Kennedy. - If this is the vision of the future-if this is th e direction in which we want to move- tile next thing we must consid- er is how we propose to get there, and what obstacles lie in our path. For such a vision is never self-fulfilling. We cannot stand idly by and expect our dreams to come true under their own power. The future is not a gift: it is an achievement. N Promises to Keep Like a ship which slowly, yet-courageously, sets sail for the high seas we began our journey-unsure, inexperi- enced and full of hope. The years have seen us pushing on, picking up speed and readying ourselves for that mo- ment when we will be asked to open full our sails ' and begin yet another voyage. i i Sail Along With Table Of Contents The course of any voyage is deter- mined, or at least affected, by the ex- periences and events encountered along the way. Likewise the past year has been filled with events that have made our journey special and memora- ble. We have tried to recapture some of the major events of 1978-79 which, we hope, will serve as suitable vehicle by which you can slip back into time to relive some of those moments. The Log, which is seasonally divided, records much of the news of the year and in a real sense is a chronicle of our progress.

In 1844 the school, which was located in a rented room in the Town Hall of Barre, Massachusetts, was moved to Westfield. From the very begin- ning Westfield State College dedicated itself to academic qual- ity and vitality. This commitment still exists today, 140 years later. Aware that the search for truth requires intellectual freedom and the unfettered play of ideas, reflection, open discussion and choice, the College Community employs a di- verse curricula which is conducive to personal growth and the liberation of the mind from prejudice and narrow self-interest.

The fundamental objective of the program is to facilitate student ' s insights into regional, national, and international economic issues. The program provides students with a sound analytical foundation for graduate study in economics, finance, business, business administration and related disciplines. Department Chairman - Russell P. Bellico FACULTY 23 J Abe Delson Alex Mackertich The oldest and largest department at Westfield State College is the Education Department. The department is committed to excellence in teacher preparation and is dedicated to providing an open and friendly atmosphere for all students.

Tobia GENERAL STUDIES The General Studies B.A. degree program offers an interdisciplinary approach to a liberal arts degree. The program offers no courses of its own but draws on courses offered by other departments and programs in the College. The program is designed for self-motivated students who desire a flexible approach to a B.A. degree an approach which avoids concentration in a single discipline. Students in General Studies, therefore, have an opportunity to create individualized pro- grams of studies which cross departmental lines. The goal of the program is to enable each major to develop a vigorous program which will satisfy his her interests and needs, and to provide a strong liberal arts degree. Coordinator - Catherine Stahl George Psychas Catherine Stahl GEOGRAPHY Anthony Bonacquisti David Vincent Karl K. Leiker This department offers a minor in Geography. It provides students with the opportunity to study the unique way in which geographers view and analyze human organization and their use of earth space. Presently the department is in the stage of changing its orientation to one of applied geography, which will provide students with marketable skills and teach them problem solving. The department is multi-disciplinary in nature and does offer an excellent program for those interested in education. Dr. Karl Leiker, who will replace Prof. O ' Shea as chairman next year, is planning to initiate a local chapter of Gamma Theta Epsilon, the national honor society in Geography.

Students participate in the Social Science Club and write and distribute the Social Science Newsletter. 32 FACULTY FALL SPORTS ■EBB FIELD HOCKEY STATE CHAMPS The 1978 Womens ' Field Hockey Team are once again State Champions, compiling a 9-1-1 record. Their only loss came in their first game at Wesleyan University and they tied Salem State 2-2 midway through the season. The team ' s success was attributed to the passing fi- nesse and scoring punch of the forward line and the strength of a well disciplined defense. Susie Lehto led the attack with 18 goals, followed by Diane Cwik with 8 and Teri Padula with 7. The main ingredient of the success of the forward line was their hustle and precise passing. Overall, the Owls scored 38 goals to their opponents 13. Westfield ' s superb defense proved to be awesome al- lowing the most goals in one game to be four, which was in the season opener. Coach Brown agreed that the defense made some cru- cial mistakes in their first game, the defense improved and allowed only 9 goals in the last ten games. The success of the defense was attributed to the steady play of Mary Langan, Kim Lanzillotta, Patti Mar- cento, Jan McDougal, Beth Rainville and Peg Toomey. Also outstanding on defense for the Owls two goaltenders Jan Gray and Karen Lindsay, who shared duties the entire season. Last year the field hockey team made a bid to go to the Northeast Regional Field Hockey Tournament, but was turned down on the grounds that they did not play high caliber teams. This season Westfield attempted to strengthen its schedule by picking up U. Mass, but was ignored by U. Conn. Only through poor communication did they fail to pick up Springfield College. Athough boasting an excellent overall record, including an impressive win over a tough U. Mass team, Westfield elected to attend the Northeastern Field Hockey Associ- ation Tournament held at Smith College. The team was disappointed when only three players were picked for trials and only one player advanced from there. Goalies Jan Gray, Karen Lindsy and center Diane Cwik made trials with Diane Being the only player to advance. Many players expressed their views on the tourna- ments out-come, saying the system used to select play- ers was unfair as it was noticed at one game that no judges were watching Westifield State; most judge s and officials were from the Boston area as were most of the teams, thus having seen most of the players play before. 34 SPORTS SPORTS 35 SOCCER Owls Upset Umass 7-3 In one of the most shocking upsets of this year ' s soccer season, surprising Westfield State downed powerhouse U-Mass 1-0 to the delight of a large crowd of WSC fans, and to the dismay of U-Mass onlookers, who have seen their once nationally ranked team drop four consecutive games to URI, U-Conn, Brown, and Westfield after com- piling an 8-1 won - loss record. The first half was a defensive struggle with neither team gaining many good scoring opportunities, though West- field out-shot U-Mass 7-3. The best chance of the half came from the foot of WSC ' S Dave Sousa, but it was turned away thanks to a spectacular diving save by the U- Mass goalie. The crowd was buzzing at the half ' s end, and it seemed as though the U-Mass partisan ' s expected their minute- men to come out charging, but it was the Owl ' s who provided the spark defensively and offensively, continu- ing their domination which they enjoyed in the first half. The Owls applied their best pressure of the game at approximately the ten minute mark of the half, by getting several strong shots on net, but none crossed the goal line. The game winner came off the foot of WSC ' s scoring whiz, John Vassallo, who averaged better than a point a game. (12 goals 4 assists.) This was not the first time this year that Vassallo scored the lone goal of the game. He accomplished this feat in an earlier game against Fitch- burg State. The victory of the Owls ' eleventh of the season to go along with four losses, qualifies them for post-season ECAC action, and could mean an invitation for NCAA Divi- sion III Tournament play.

POPE JOHN PAUL I IS DEAD Pope John Paul I, newly elected pontiff of the Roman Catholic Church died Sept. 28 after a reign of only 34 days. The 65 year-old pope ' s reign was one of the briefest in history but his warmth and good humor none- theless endeared him to millions. An official Vatican announcement said John Paul, who had a history of health problems, died at about 11 p.m. while reading in bed. A doctor, who was immediately summoned, attributed death to an acute myocardial infarction. By noon, the body of the church ' s 263rd pontiff lay in state in the Vatican ' s Clementine Hall, just a few rooms away from the bedroom where he died. Meanwhile, the church machinery of papal succession immediately went into action, as it had only a month ago following the death of 80 year-old Pope Paul VI, who died on Aug. 6. The Vatican ' s secretary of state, French Cardinal Jean Villot, who takes over Vatican leadership during the interregnum, went to the papal apartments to organize the funeral rites and ordered that the 112 cardinal-electors around the world to travel back to Rome to prepare for the selection of the 264th pope. Though he reigned barely a month, John Paul, the former Cardinal Albino Luciani of Venice, had made a worldwide impression with his warmth and kindness. From his very first appearance on the balcony of St. Peter ' s after his election, Pope John Paul I brought an intensely personal style of informality to the pontificate. He candidly spoke to the crowds that assembled to hear him and after his election spoke in the first person singular, unusual for a pope. He was elected in a con- clave that lasted only two days, one of the quickest in modern times. He won the papal seat after only three or four ballots with what Vatican prelates said was near unanimity , although his name had not figured among the front runners at the start. Quigley Named W.S.C. Chief Executive Dr. Lawrence A. Quigley. Deputy Chancellor of the Massachusetts State College System, has been named by the State ' s Board of Trustees to serve on special assignment as Chief Execu- tive at Westfield State College. Since he began his duties on June 11, Dr. Quigley has been trying to im- prove communication within the col- lege community. He has also been working to improve the two areas of concern: academics and security. When rules of security such as pro- hibiting public drinking on campus is implicated. Dr. Quigley states that it is the responsibility of the administration to follow through and see that they are enforced for the security and well be- ing of the campus residents. Besides strengthening the links of communication on campus. Dr. Quig- ley plans to establish rapport outside of Westfield State College to the commu- nities in our entire region. RED SOX DO IT AGAIN Those damm Yankees did it again! The defending world champions rallied from a 2-0 deficit and crushed the sea- son long dreams of the Boston Red Sox 5-4 in the second one-game playoff in American League History. In 1948, the Sox lost the first best-of-one to Cleveland. Bucky Dent ' s game turning hit into the Fenway Park left field screen might be called a team home run. This un- expected blast got the World Champi- ons stepping toward the glory road to a third straight American League East victory. Of course it just had to be a one-run ball game! Log 51 Polish Cardinal Elected New Pope Cardinal Karol Wojtyla of Poland was elected pope of the Roman Catholic Church on Monday Octo- ber 16. In a bold break with a 455- year tradition of Italian pontiffs, the 111 cardinals gathered in secret conclave, selected the little known archbishop of Krakow. The 58 year old Wojtyla was elected on the sev- enth ballot. The new pontiff took the name John Paul, the same name as his predecessor. The selection of the papal name John Paul II apparently indicates that he plans to follow in the steps of his three immediate predecessors- John XXIII, Paul VI, and John Paul I, who died Sept. 28 after a reign of only 34 days. He is the first non-Italian pope since the reign of Dutchman Adrian VI, which dated 1522-1523. The son of a Polish non-comis- sioned army officer, Wojtyla secret- ly studied for the priesthood in Po- land while it was occupied by the Nazis in World War II. After the war he was active both in teaching and in parish work. Pope John Paul II assumed the throne of St. Peter Sunday, Oct. 22, before one of the largest crowds in Vatican History. More than 200,000 persons crammed into St. Peter ' s Square for the solemn rite. BOBBY ORR: A Memory He was spectacular .... but he had those knees. Bobby Orr, the ultimate hockey player, will play the game he revolu- tionized no more. The man who made those in the highest league in the world look like amateurs when ever he wanted can ' t perform his magic anymore. The pain is too great. Bone is scraping against bone after six operations ... on those knees. There will be no more comeback attempts, but there will be many memories. Orr created what became known as the offensive defenseman with his breathtaking length of the ice rushes. He seemed to be able to do whatever he pleased with a hockey puck on the end of his Victoriaville. Whenever he wished to slow or speed up a game ' s tempo he did it while all, including the opposition, watched. But he had those Knees. The voice used to bellow through drafty Boston Garden Bost on goal scored by number four, Orr ... The message was heard often, for Orr could thread a needle with his shot from the point, and in close he could deke a goaltender like a clev- er center. Can you still picture Orr flying through the air after beating Glenn Hall in 1970 to give Boston its first Stanley Cup in 29 years? Remember how he would rag the puck when the Bruins were short- handed? The ever-elusive black disc clung to his stick as he maneu- vered in circles and majestic figure- eights. In the crucial last seconds of a one-goal game, Orr could fire the puck from behind his goal line and hit the vacated net dead-center at the other end. Even when he first came up to the Bruins as the crew cut 18 year old wunderkid from the Oshawa Gen- erals, people could see he was dif- ferent. He was better. The collec- tion of trophies and individual re- cords Orr amassed over his brillant 12 year career is staggering, but hardly surprising. He was that good. At age 30 Bobby Orr ' s playing days are over. He was a living leg- end long ago, but he now becomes a memory. Orr was the greatest . . . but he had those knees. Living legends are human too. Social Gathering Right now I am sitting in the midst of WSC ' s second highest so- cial scene. I bet you guessed it right off after you instinctively brainstormed the Rat as the first guess. I ' m talking about the li- brary, famous for its great atmo- sphere and free admission. All you need is an armload of books to spread out in front of you to fit the image before you ' re off to yakking away about what you did last night, who overindulged at the party, where the most recent fist mark is in Lammers, and just about any other good dirt that has hit the fan. There ' s even a bigger added bo- nus in going to the library now. Since Harvey ' s unfortunate de- parture, WSC students need a meeting place even more than be- fore. Especially since the Rat is closed on Thursday nights! What is this school coming to!? And who would ever think of sitting around the Student Union to talk? It just isn ' t done. Anyway, who wants to stucn With all this buzzing in my ears i rather sit and talk too. Wf wouldn ' t?

On the easel in his red barn studio stood his last unfinished painting which reveals Reverend John Sar- gent talking to an Indian Chief in his hometown, Stockbridge, Massa- chusetts .... Rockwell ' s career involved most- ly the designing of front covers for two magazines, The Saturday Evening Post and Boy ' s Life . Al- though he was widely acclaimed for producing 360 covers for the Post , his career with Boy ' s Life lasted over 55 years of his life, be- ginning in 1916 and ending in 1976. In both of these magazines, the il- lustrator showed his love for the fa- miliar and sometimes humorous as- pects of American life, stemming from the Foxy Grandfather ' s who played baseball to the more serious and famous Four Freedoms illus- trations painted during WWII. At the height of his career, his devotion to his work led him to a seven day work week with only a half day off for Christmas. In the last year of his life, being confined to a wheel chair made it difficult to work and many times in frustration he stated It ' s hell to grow old. Many critics often reprimanded Rockwell for producing illustrations which depicted the ideal instead of the real world. Rockwell, being his worst critic, also admitted this falla- cy in failing to see the people as real. Barefoot, freckled faced boys in torn overalls or the kindly doctor preparing to inoculate a child ' s bare bottom, are some of the familiar scenes he created. Yet even though he never won the acclaim of the art critics for such works as these, he had the appreciation and respect from the majority of American peo- ple. His eye for detail and his inno- cense of character will always be remembered by the nation that he loved. Gasoline Heads Toward $1 A Gallon The OPEC oil cartel announced it will raise the price of crude oil by 14.5 percent in four steps during 1979, the first increase to be ex- pected January 1. This decision by the 13 nation or- ganization of petroleum exporting countries means a 1 cent a gallon rise in the United States starting in January, and an overall price boost of 3 cents by the end of 1979. As of Nov. 1 prices averaged 66 cents per gallon. Because the OPEC cartel pro- duces more than 30 per cent of the world ' s petroleum and accounts for 37 per cent of the oonsumed by the United States, this sharp increase is deemed very harmful to the world economy. President Carter ' s chief inflation fighter, Alfred Khan, stated he was shocked and very, very disap- pointed by the decision. He also told reporters You can ' t enact a 15 per cent increase in the price of the world ' s most important fuel and not expect the customers on whom you depend to suffer and that suf- fering to reflect back on you. The increase in petroleum prices is an indication that the cost of gas- oline could reach $1.00 per gallon by the end of the year as predicted by the American Petroleum Insti- tute in Washington. In line with this prediction manu- facturers of service station equip- ment are producing gasoline pumps capable of recording prices of more than $1.00 per gallon. Most experts agree that the prime reason for price increases is the oil supply problem which remains uneven and unpredictable. Recent problems in Iran have irritated this problem. Ac- cording to Francis Perotti, presi- dent of the Massachusetts Gasoline Retailers Association, the shortages is simply due to demand outstrip- ping supply. SELECTIVE SERVICE SYSTEM NOT WORKING Congressional reports show that the Selective Service System is not capable of mobilizing enough re- cruits needed by the Pentagon dur- ing a time of crisis. At present, Se- lective Service is now in deep standby with only 98 employees in national and regional levels. Primar- ily the fact that all military recruits are only volunteers shows the weakness of the recruiting system. The system is supposed to enable the first recruits to arrive at camp within 30 days of the mobilization order and deliver 100,000 induc- tees within two months. It is so esti- mated that with the present system it would take between 65 to 95 days for the first set of recruits and 90 to 120 days for the second group of recruits after the order of mobiliza- tion. This lack of a quick, reliable plan led the Congress to appropriate $7.1 million for the Selective Ser- vices in the current fiscal year. Three options were also proposed in addition to these funds. 1). Spend an additional $2 mil- lion for an improved comput- er system. 2). Reinstate peacetime regis- tration, an additional $4 mil- lion. 3). Reinstate peacetime classifi- cation, boost cost over $13 million. LOG 53 LAST BODY REMOVED; JONESTOWN TOLL 910 The final death toll of the mass suicide in Jonestown has been set at 910 by U.S. officials. By Novem- ber 25 American soldiers had com- pleted the grisly task of removing the bodies from the People ' s Tem- ple settlement founded in Guyana by Rev. Jim Jones. The bodies will be flown back to the United States for identification and burial. The count leaped from 408 to at least 775 when searchers realized that many bodies had been stacked atop each other. 78 members of the People ' s Temple survived the bizarre death rite which took place in early November. According to the state department, the survivors will be flown to Charlestown, S.C., while the dead will be transported to Dover, Del. Two of the survivors have been formally charged with murder and will continue to be held in Guyana. At Jonestown, American troops, in surgical masks and rubber gloves, removed the decayed bodies of the sect members, called to their death by Jones ' summon, The time has come for all of us to meet at an- other place. The camp ' s medical team had doled out lethal doses of cynide poi- son. It was administered to infants and torce-fed to some adults who resisted, but survivors said most took it willingly. The mass suicide- murder had apparently been sparked by an investigation of the religious commune by a 13 member delegation led by Rep. Leo J. Ryan, D-Calif. Rep. Ryan and several re- porters were shot and killed after an attack on the group at the air- port in Port Kaituma, Guyana, on Nov. 18. Ryan was investigating the controversal religious settlement after complaints by families of some of the cult members. The People ' s Temple was first founded by Jones in Northern Cali- fornia 15 years ago and claims membership of 20,000. Jones seJ up the Guyana settlement after hi| resigned from his job as director the San Francisco Housing Author ity, an appointed position. The con I troversy leading to Jones ' resigna tion arose when former members c his congregation accused him c stagging fake religious healings am- beating members of the sect. Jones believed he could erase op pression of the poor, eradicate class distinctions and prove thai people from various backgrounds could live together. Dr. Nevins Named New Academic Dean In mid-September Westfield State College officials announced the ap- pointment of Dr. John F. Nevins as new Academic Dean. The appoint- ment of Dr. Nevins, former Under- graduate Dean and Professor of Education at WSC, was ratified by the Board of Trustees of the Massa- chusetts State College System. Dr. Nevins responsibilities, in this position, will be the planning, co- ordination and direction of all edu- cational activities at the College. He will work on the development of academic programs and will main- tain a liaison with the Central Office of the Board of Trustees. Dr. Nevins has established a repu- tation as an able administrator whose dedication, energy and ex- pertise have earned him the re- spect of the College community. The new dean arrived at Westfield State in 1969 as an Associate Pro- fessor of Education. He was ap- pointed Director of Occupational Education Programs in 1970. Dr. Nevins earned a bachelor ' s degree in philosophy and languages from Niagara Uni versity in 1946, a master ' s degree in psychology from Niagara in 1948 a master ' s degree in education administration and curriculum from the Catholic Uni- versity of America in 1956, and a doctoral degree in education ad- ministration from the Catholic Uni- versity in 1959. MIDEAST ACCORD REACHED) Bringing the Camp David Summit to a close, the leaders of Israel and Egypt signed an historic blueprint for peace in the war torn Middle East. The accord was signed in a televised ceremony at the White House by Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin on Sunday Sept. 17. President Carter, who had initiat- ed the Camp David talks in hope of an agreement, praised the cour- age and wisdom of the two Middle East leaders, saying his prayers for a successful end to the 13 day sum- mit have been answered far be- yond any expectations. The presi- dent could scarcely contain his joy and pride as he announced the dec- laration of a Middle East peace after 30 years of war and hostility since the birth of Israel. The accord called A Framewo ' For Peace in The Middle East, ou lined plans for an interim gover ment on the occupied West BaiJ with Israel, Jordan and the Palestil ians sharing power for at least ft years. Administration officials se the settlement will be safeguard)! by a series of security measure I including surveillance stations ai an international peace force witJ out the presnee of Americans. Til officials said Israel would begin mj jor withdrawls from the occupii Sinai Desert between three an nine months after a peace treaty signed. The agreement also calls f the establishment of full diploma! i relations between Israel and Egy as soon as the Jewish state mak ' its first major withdrawl from tl| Sinai Desert. FOOD PRICES LOWER? A report published by the Labor Department in late December had some surprising news for economic experts and consumers as well. Ac- cording to the report increases in food prices for the month of No- vember were lower than similar in- creases in August, September and October. Experts believe that this may be an indication of slower price increases in months to come, which, of course, would be wel- comed by American consumers. The report indicated that whole- sale prices for the month of Novem- ber increased by 0.8 per cent, whl food price increases rose only ' 0.6 per cent. This slower rate Wi attributed to decreased prices meat, fruit and rice. Meanwhile, for the month, who sale gasoline prices rose 1.6 p cent, 5.7 per cent higher than August. Prices in kerosene, fuel and other petroleum products al took a sharp increase in price. E perts agree that few signs point o timistically to any decline in tl rate of price increase for most co sumer products. 54 LOG STOMACH WOES Beep .... Plop plop fizz fizz.

In one way the new food ser- vices have been successful. The salad bar is great. Unfortunately WSC is not a school of vegetar- ians. If the corn we were fed at that fateful cook out really was low grade cattlefeed, perhaps the lo- cal jersies and holsteins are living high on the fres h native. Either we all can unite to push for the improvement of the cur- rent food fiasco, or we can contin- ue to stand in line like lambs (or should I say cattle) waiting for the eventful slaughter. The new food services people are trying, but not hard enough. Plop plop fizz fizz ORIENTATION: A BIG HIT The smiling faces of the group leaders and their two directors. Patty McGowan and Jean Cafarelli. recently greeted the largest Fresh- man Class in Westfield State Col- lege ' s 140 year history. As many of you remember, the orientation program consisted of two 3-day sessions which took place at the end of August. The pur- pose of orientation is to give the new students an oppurtunity to get acquainted with the school and their future classmates before the new year begins. To get a taste of dormitory life, Lammers Hall and Scanlon were used to house the students during their stay. When fi- nally the students arrived and set- tled into their assigned dorms, the hectic program began. First, the large group was herded into Wilson Auditorium to hear the traditional welcoming speeches. Welcome greetings were extended to the Freshman Class by Ralph J. Baldasaro, a member of the Board of Trustees, Lawrence A. Quigley, Deputy Chancellor of the Massa- chusetts State College System, Greg DeFronzo, student Senate President, Professor Amico J. Bar- one and others. At the conclusion of these speeches the students were again gathered together by their group leaders and rushed off to var- ious other activities that were planned for the day. During their three day stay, de- spite a schedule jammed with meet- ings, films, discussions and paper- work, there was still time for enjoy- ment The first evening, a cook-out and Monte Carlo Night took place. To wrap up the sessions the follow- ing night, there was a semi-formal dinner (which probably was the last time anyone would ever see most of these students dressed up) and then a dance at the S.U Lounge. Although most of the activities that took place during orientation ran smoothly, there were some stu- dents who chose to be destructive. Numerous fire drills as well as a mattress fire were some of the stat- istics which made dorm damage during this orientation reach a high- er level than previous years. Lets hope this isn ' t an indication of what to expect in the near future. The orientation program did end on a very good note despite the damage. When the Freshmen evalu- ated the program the overall re- sponse was very positive and every- one seemed enthusiastic about at- tending WSC. Most of the group leaders were pleased about their in- dividual groups and left feeling that to work an orientation was really very worthwhile.

The team that was the power of Division Ml, last season, is now the new power of Division II. It has only taken them one season to prove that they ' re the team to beat. Coach Holubowich speaks for the whole team when he says he is very satisfied with their accomplishments although they were always Division II caliber. The team has talent right along with a good attitude. Although they had some tough breaks as far as injuries they are versatile enough to pick up the slack. They lost Jimmy Collins who was top scorer for the team last semester and Captain Curt Everett was out for the Elmira game and was replaced by Mike Shields, yet the team still played a strong competitive game. Not only are the boys devoted to the sport, they also have the support of their Westfield State fans. The outlook for next season looks good. The team should have equal strength and more experience. There is only one vital player that will be leaving, Curt Everett (goalie) and Mike Sheilds should be the right replacement. The games to be watched will once again be A.I.C. which seems to be a big Division II power and Holy Cross, in the tournament. Coach Holubowich has high hopes for the play-offs.

The potential for a winning season is there and all that remains is the hard work necessary to blend the above characteristics into a cohesive unit. So far the attitude of the team and the coaching staff has been very positive in the preseason practices but a lack of good defensive play is a major concern. Head Coach Steve Sartori leads the Owls into one of the toughest schedules faced in recent years. In order to capture the Massachusetts State College crown, Westfield has to contend with tough Boston State and Bridgewater State among others. Coach Steve Sartoi said, Despite two heartbreak losses in the Codfish Bowl Tournament, we are optimistic about our basketball season. We were encouraged by the unselfish and enthusiastic attitude of our ballclub, and by the individual play of some of the players. Wil Daniels had an outstanding average 17.5, points. His fouling out with nine minutes remaining in the consolation game really hurt us. I was also pleased with the steady play of our guards Peter Hite and Ricky Moore. We are looking forward to participating in the Mayor ' s Tournament and we have alot of respect for the other three teams involved especially AIC which has a strong well-coached squad this season , he concluded. 90.

Hoop Begins First Year Feb. PILECKI CHOSEN AS W.S.C. PRESIDENT Dr. Francis J. Pilecki The Academic Dean at Fitchburg State College, Francis J. Pilecki, was named President of Westfield State College by the Board of Trust- ees of the Massachusetts State Col- lege System, on Thursday, Novem- ber 8, 1978. Dr. Pilecki will replace Dr. Law- rence A. Quigley on January 14, 1979. Dr. Quigley, who has been serving as Chief Executive Officer at WSC for the past six months will continue his responsibilities as Dep- uty Chancellor for the Massachu- setts State College System at its Central Office in Boston on the same date. In a statement released the day after the appointment, Dr. Quigley commented about Dean Pilecki: An outstanding educator, a splen- did person, and a first-class profes- sional has been selected by the Board of Trustees as President at WSC. Dean Frank Pilecki has exhib- ited a distinguished record of ac- complishment in higher education, serving with excellence for the past few years as Academic Dean at Fitchburg State College. He is a re- spected scholar, an experienced administrator, and a person who works well with people both within a college community and in the com- munity at large. He will exercise sound solid leadership in enabling Westfield State College to fulfill its mission of even greater service to the people of Westfield. to the Greater Springfield Region, and to the State. Dr. Pilecki received a Doctorate of Education from the University of Rochester in 1967. He also holds a Masters of Education degree. Dr. Pi- lecki served five years at Fitchburg State as dean of teacher education and later academic dean. He pre- viously worked as a grant-getter for Center County Public Schools in Pennsylvania, as the academic dean of Laboure Junior College in Dorchester where he turned a nurs- ing school into a two year college of nursing and allied health. He was born in 1934 and presently resides in Wellesley. Something To Say f ¥ dm uiMam J i OPEN HOUSE Every Monday 3:00 - 5:00 P.M. Parenzo Conf. Rm . J ' NO STUDENT INPUT In an attempt to bridge the gap, which has, in the past, existed between students and administrators, President-elect Francis Pi- leki has pledged an open administration. One of his first actions, as the head of WSC was to begin a series of Open House sessions, where students could voice their concerns and opin- ions. On Tuesday, November 14, 1978 the Student Senate voted unani- mously to send a letter to the Mas- sachusetts State College Board of Trusttees, condeming the meth- od they utilized in the selection of a President of Westfield State Col- lege. According to Greg DeFronzo, Stu- dent Senate President, This is just one of the many examples of which student input was not sought after in decision-making concerning the college. DeFronzo maintains that, if the Board as well as the adminis- trators at the college continue to disregard student input, unity here will be non-existant. He went on to say that he believes the Board should divorce themselves of the medieval belief that they must stand in for the parents of the stu- dents. DeFronzo elaborated this point by stating, For an education- al institution to provide a total edu- cation, students must be given the opportunity to participate in all as- pects of college life, which includes its governance. In the letter that was sent to the Board the main point the Student Senate focused on was the belief that as consumers of the State College System, the Board should keep in mind that personnel delib- erations must be conducted pri- marily through a consensus of the concerned parties. DeFronzo believes that the Stu- dent Senate had to send the letter to the Board of Trustees to show them that students at W.S.C. have not been included in important poli- cy decisions and that the students can no longer accept these abuses upon their responsibilities. Concluding, DeFronzo empha- sized, we are not stating any reser- vations about the President-elect of Westfield State College, we are sim- ply requesting that the students ' voice and opinion be respected in the future among members of the Board, and college administrators. LOG 103 FORMER PRIME MINISTER OF ISRAEL IS DEAD Golda Meir, the former prime minister of Israel, died on Friday De- cember 8, 1978. Death came to Mrs. Meir at 4:30 p.m. at the Hadas- sah Hospital in Jerusalem. She was 80 years old. Although the cause of death was not immediately released, hospital officials said that Mrs. Meir had de- veloped jaundice earlier in the week, a complication resulting from malignant lymphoma, a form of leu- kemia, which Mrs. Meir had con- tracted 12 or 13 years ago. Born in Russia and educated in the United States, Mrs. Meir was one of the founders of Israel. As prime minister and head of the la- bor party in 1969-74, she was the most prominent woman in Israel ' s public life. She led the country through the Yom Kippur War of 1973 and peace moves afterward with Egypt and Syria that involved partial Israeli withdrawls in Sinai and on the Golan Heights. Golda Meir was born in Kiev, Rus- sia, on May 3, 1898. She was taken with her mother to the United States in 1906 where her father had gone three years earlier to es- cape the poverty in the Jewish ghettos. She grew up and was edu- cated in Milwaukee, became a schoolteacher and moved to Den- ver. In Denver, Golda met Morris Myerson, who courted her and begged her to marry him. She said she would only if he went to Pales- tine with her. He agreed and the young couple arrived in 1921. Their daughter was born in 1926. Shortly thereafter Golda Myerson entered politics. Mrs. Meir was Israel ' s first am- bassador to the Soviet Union and worked in a succession of jobs for the fledgling Jewish state. In 1956, at the time of the Suez invasion, former premeir David Ben-Gurion named her as foreign minister. Golda retired, briefly, in 1956 when Levi Eshkol was elected prime min- ister. But a split in the coalition gov- ernment forced her back into poli- tics in efforts to heal the wounds. In 1968, the newly formed Labor Par- ty elected her its secretary general. In February 1969 she was elected prime minister after the sudden death of Eshkol. After learning of her death Presi- dent Carter praised Golda Meir as embodying the best in the Israeli spirit and he said he prayed her dream of a Middle East Peace will soon be realized. On the occas- sion of her death, it is fitting to note that the nation of Israel to which she dedicated her life is strong and free today, Carter said. Iran Is Seized Proclaiming a new Islamic re- gime, exuberant supporters of Aya- tollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the bearded holy man of Iran, seized control of Tehran, the captial of Iran, on Sunday February 12, 1979. Counter attacks throughout the night by loyalist troops in several areas of Tehran were not enough to prevent the downfall of Prime Min- ster Shanpour Bakhtiar ' s govern- ment which had been abandoned earlier by the top generals of the country who claimed impartiality in the crisis and withdrew their sup- port from the civilian regime. The U.S. embassy in Tehran was kept under guard by U.S. Marines after Iranian guards had deserted their posts there. Officials readied emergency evacuation plans for the few thousand Americans left in Iran. Former director of the national oil company Mehdi Bazargan was cho- sen by the Ayatollah to be Prime Minister and was expected to take over the reins of the government on Monday Feb. 13. General Abba Qar- abaghi stayed on as chief of staff and pledged the military support in building a new government. Government troops, guarding the lower house of parliement, surren- dered without resistence wfv Khomeini ' s followers took over t national radio and television and c dared an Ad Hoc Islamic Revo tionary Command was ruling Iri 1 and ordered all pro governme troops to surrender. While Tehran burned, an appro mated 11,000 Iranian political pi oners, common criminals and handful of American and Europea fought their way out of Irans largt prison. As the prisoners left I prison, guerillas broke into the i mory, stealing weapons and otli fighting gear. An estimated 2 million cheerii people met Khomeini as he triu phantly entered the capital city pi claiming Khomeini is our gove i ment. It took 50,000 Moslem curity guards to restrain the m welcoming the 78 year old vict who had been in exile for almost years. In his speech to the croi the new leader vowed to top, Bakhtiar ' s regime and to set u[i government based on strict ten of Islam. He strongly proclairr that final success could only be tained when all foreigners had I the country. COST OF LIVING DOUBLES!! According to a report released by the Labor Department in mid-Feb- ruary, the cost of living in America began 1979 with a whopping 11.2 percent annual rate. This is well over the inflation forecast given by President Carter. The Republican National Commit- tee promptly blamed the sharp price increase on the Carter admin- istration ' s bumbling and said the day ought to be called Black Fri- day because of the grim economic news. The report was released on Friday, February 24. The GOP con- tinued our nation, our people and our economy simply cannot stand the continuing series of frightening economic news released monthly by the administration. Meanwhile Jody Powell, the White House press secretary, said the rise is not surprising in view of the serious problem that infla- tion poses to our country. He Americans must make some 1 cific sacrifices to slow down it tion. The Consumer Price Index, wIj measures the change in prices basic good and services, jurrn 0.9 percent in January, acconr to the report. This is the largest t in four months. The 0.9 percentt means that it would cost $20 ' ) today for the same thi ngs bou for $100 in 1967. Paced by steep increases in price of beef, poultry, fish, fil fruits and vegetables, food prffis, rose at an annual rate of 12.2 cent. Housing costs were up 0.6 cent in January, with home ow ship expenses climbing 0.8 perc Fuel and utility bills were up 0.4 cent. On Saturday December 16, 1978 esident Carter announced that e United States would severe ties th Taiwan and grant diplomatic cognition of Communist China on nuary 1, 1979. In a broadcast address to the na- n, Carter said the historic agree- ;nt was made with Peking on De- mber 14. He said that the United ates will withdraw all U.S. troops m Nationalist China but will re- n an interest in the peaceful res- ition of the Taiwan issue. n a joint communique with the king government, the president d the United States acknowl- ges the Chinese position that ire is but one China and Taiwan is CHINA RECOGNIZED BY THE U.S. part of China. The communique also said that both the United States and communist China seek to reduce the danger of internation- al military conflict. According to a speech delivered by President Carter the United States will maintain cultural and business relations with Taiwan. However the U.S. government will terminate its mutual defense treaty with Taiwan. Carter asserted: I have paid special attention to en- suring that normalization of rela- tions between the United States and the People ' s Republic of China will not jeopardize the well-being of the people of Taiwan. The president ' s announcement KING CUTS 1980 TATE COLLEGE BUDGET Just two month after taking office as governor of Massachusetts Gov. Edward King announced that he had ordered a $40 million cut in the 1980 state college budget and made a suggestion to merge two or more of the five Boston campuses. According to the Boston Globe the order to cut spending at the 30 state colleges and universities was made at a private meeting with school trustees. The Globe quoted political sources as saying King ordered that the fiscal 1980 budget requests of $333 million be reduced to the $294 million appropriated this year. Statehouse officials estimated this would mean five to ten percent bud- get cuts at each campus. King suggested merging or con- solidating the following schools: ioston State; University of Massa- :husetts, Boston; Massachusetts College of Art; Roxbury Community ollege; and Bunker Hill Community College. King also requested sug- gestions for reorganization of the state campuses which have an en rollment of 166,000 students. T.W.O.

The tri-directors were united back in September out of their discon- tent with the transfer orientation program. Since then they have been busy organizing, and ultimate- ly producing the January orienta- tion - the first of its kind. Group leaders were chosen in De- cember by the tri-directors, after interviews had been held. In the past, group leaders for transfer ori- entation were not interviewed, and needed only to volunteer. The tri- directors held interviews in the hopes of improving the quality of the group leaders. Orientation was originally sched- uled for the 15th of January, but had to be changed to the 16th be- cause of Martin Luther King Day. Unfortunately, as a result, some major changes in the original pro- gram had to be made, and the fact that the 16th was a school day, may have decreased participation by the new students. However, the tri-directors were very pleased with the amount of participation, and re- ceived a lot of positive feedback from the new students. An important addition to the pro- gram was the evening reception at the Rat, which gave the new stu- dents and group leaders a chance to get better acquainted. A compli- mentary dinner was served for all, there was a discjockey, dancing and games. Dr. Pilecki, Dean Hiersche, Mr. Ford and Dr. Nevins attended also. Tri-directors of the January Orientation Wendy Prairio, Marilyn Fogarty and Joanne Page are joined by Dr. John Nevins and Dr. Francis Pileki. Pittsburgh Steelers National Champions With a 35-31 win over the Dallas Cowboys, the Pittsburgh Steelers won the National Foo tball League Championship for the 3rd time and while doing so also shattered two Super Bowl passing records. On Sunday, January 21, 1979 quarterback Terry Bradshaw passed to John Stallworth on touchdown passes for 28 and 75 yards, to Rocky Blier for a 7 yard touchdown pass and then an 18 yarder that took Lynn Swann over the line for another score. A touch- down run of 22 yards by Franco Harris put another 6 points on the scoreboard for the Steelers. Bradshaw passed for a total of 319 yards in the game, which was played in Miami, to break the re- cord for passing in a Super Bowl game which was set thirteen years ago by Bart Starr of the Green Bay Packers in the first game of the se- ries. The Steelers and the Cowboys dazzled the near capacity crowd of 78,656 with a pulsating first half that ended with Pittsburgh leading 21-14 and Bradshaw already in the Super Bowl Record book with 253 yards in the air. In the second half there was more of the same. The game silenced Super Bowl critics who were complaining that the se- ries had produced boring football. At times during the game it was dif- ficult to keep tabs on the teams, who were swiftly moving up and down the field making touchdown after touchdown. STUDENT UNION IS NOW CAMPUS CENTER Have you been going off campus to find your fun and excitement? Why? It ' s all right here at the Cam- pus Center! The Campus Center is the new title for the Student Union (for the sake of coordinating all the state schools). This semester there have been some changes in order to have better organization and to put forth a team effort. In place of the original committee system there is now what is known as an advisory board, consisting of 10 members, along with a program committee. Still more student involvement is needed, said the Chairman of the Advisory Board, Arthur Zontini. Un- til recently there had been good turnouts at the meetings. This new program committee is hoping to achieve what all the other commit- tees put together did. The advisory board and the pro- gram committee have been working hard, on a limited budget, to pro- vide students with things to do. EXCHANGE STUDENTS Westfield, Mass. Westfield State College welcomed seven exchange students as part of a reciprocal pro- gram which allows students en- rolled at the Westfield campus to study at colleges in various parts of the United States. The students were greeted at an informal reception by Dr. Lawrence A. Quigley, Deputy Chancellor of the Massachusetts State College System, and by Westfield Associate Dean of Students Norman E. Hiersche. Six of the visitors are from the University of Wisconsin at Platteville; the seventh arrived from East Central State University in Oklahoma. All are being housed on campus for the semester they will spend at Westfield. Westfield students who apply and qualify for the exchange program may study at colleges in Alaska, Ar- kansas, Mississippi, Missouri, Okla- homa, South Dakota, and Wiscon- sin. For those who wish to study abroad, the College-through the Center for International Education offers opportunites for study in Ar- gentina, Brazil, England, Frana Greece, Mexico, Poland and Spair The students currently visitin Westfield will earn transferabl credit for the courses they tak( They will participate in special or entation programs, and will hav the opportunity to visit various hii toric sights and cultural attraction in the region.

S.U. DIRECTOR BUSINESS OFFIC 106 LOG W.S.C. Student Faculty Variety Show Each year, the Exchange Pro- gram sponsors a Student-Faculty Variety Show. This year ' s produc- tion was held on Wednesday, No- vember 15, and featured a wide va- riety of talent. About 200 students and faculty met at 8 p.m. in Dever Auditorium to witness the event. Proceeds (from the 99$ admission price and the raffle) amounted to approxi- mately $400, which goes toward transportation costs for the 21 stu- dents accepted into the program. The audience was welcomed, once again, by the inimitable Mur- ray Schwartz, Master of Ceremo- nies. Professor Schwartz received applause and laughter (as well as a few good-natured boos) from the audience in response to his sick jokes about various faculty mem- bers. The show wouldn ' t be the same without him. Act I began with songs by Ruth Bentley, Sue Ouellette (who?) and Gigi Mezzanotte. The girls treated the audience to a negro spiritual, Down By the Riverside , and a heart-rendering version of Rub- ber Duckie , complete with chore- ography. Kathleen Greer decked out in a black sequined tu-tu, and tap- danced her way into the hearts of the audience. She was followed by Donna-Lee Andrew, who did a beau- tiful, professional job singing I Hon- estly Love You . Donna was a favor- ite! The next act featured Jennifer Adams (lead), Susan Coyle, Diana Cote, Jane Curtin, Colleen McGuire, Patti Amirault, and Cecile Labos- siere. The group mimicked Sha Na Na , and dressed in 50 ' s style for their rendition of Remember Then . It was a delightful perfor- mance led by the antics of Jennifer Adams. Peter McMillan ' s juggling act fol- lowed. Peter was very adept in jug- gling, but missed a few times, send- ing the audience into fits of laugh- ter. He played a few selections on his harmonica, and quit only when tennis balls were hurled at him from backstage. The rest of the act featured a sing-along with Ralph Merrifield, a Barry Manilow medley played on the piano by Roman Alis, and Car- men Anderson and Andrea Harring- ton singing We may never Pass this way Again . The last perfor- mance was a dramatization of Mack the Knife . Betsy McLaugh- lin, Maureen CTLeary, Kathie Schoiz, Judy Packer, Maxine He- menet, Diane Devivo, Kathy Shar- land, Lisa Paskarnis, Carol DeCoste, and Roberta Beando worked to- gether on the act and produced an imaginative cardboard shark in which one of the girls danced around the stage. The Raffle Drawing was held dur- ing the short intermission. First prize was a 10-speed bicycle, won by Vincent Aurilio. Second Prize, a popcorn popper, was won by Joe St. John. Neither was present to ac- cept his awards. Act II began with Karen Fee, sing- ing What I Did for Love , from the Broadway musical, A Chorus Line . Donna Seitz, accompanied by Bruce Mattson, followed Karen in an expressive performance of Killing Me Softly , and If . Meg Cronin and Sandee Brayton quick- ened things up a bit, with a lively tap dance to a selection from Sweet Charity . Both are experienced dancers, and gave a fine perfor- mance, despite trouble with the re- cording they used as background. Pamela Kallio stepped into the spotlight and performed Carli Si- mon ' s Beautiful , followed by Noel Arsenault, singing Both Sides Now with her own guitar accompa- niment. Professor Edgar Alward de- lighted the audience with grade school selections, reminiscent of our Beginning Readers. He read passages from Dickie Dale ' s Adven- tures, including, Moo Moo, said the cow. Children ' s poetry was also read by Alward, and we all laughed. Susan and Steve Rogers per- formed All for the Best from the Broadway Musical Godspell . It was a lively act, accompanied by guitar, piano, and drums. Lynda Lee Stephens and Chris Cassidy sang California Dreaming and If I Fell , an old Beatles tune. Scoobe Co. (The M.T.G. Back- stage gang) returned with Red Rid- er , the further adventures of Cin- dasmella. The group dazzled the au- dience with their antics. Nowhere else but in the Student-Faculty Vari- ety Show could actors and ac- tresses tape dialogue to glasses, ta- blecloths, walls ... It was great fun watching the characters grope around the stage in an attempt to find their next line. The audience expected a lot from Scoobee and her gang, and was well rewarded. Opposite are Ruth Bentley, Sue Ouellette, and Gigi Mezzanotte sing and dance in the opening act of the student faculty variety show. DANCE MARATHON The Muscular Dystrophy Associ- ation will receive nearly $2,800 as a result of the 16 Hour Dance Mara- thon which was held Saturday. No- vember 18th in the Student Union Lounge. According to S.U. Director Don- ald Ford, 45 participants started in the event with only five contestants dropping out before the marathon came to an end at 1 a.m. Sunday morning. The marathon was kicked off at 9 a.m. with an address by WSC vice- president Paul Marrotte. Spirits were high as the students em- barked on the first leg of their danc- ing journey. The contestants con- tinued to dance the day away to musical selections provided by D.J.s from WSKB, the college radio station. By mid-afternoon the dance floor had taken on a choreo- graphic effect as students per- formed the line hussle in unison to disco beats such as Disco Infer- no. Retreating to the Alumni Lounge in three separate groups for five minutes every hour, contestants munched on sandwiches provided by ARA food service. Others applied generous amounts of Ben-Gay to tired, sore muscles. At 7 p.m. the dance was opened to the rest of the student body. Shortly after, the dance floor again erupted into a burning ma ss of hu- manity being consumed by disco fe- ver. The grueling hours were begin- ning to take their toll by 8:30 as several constestants had dropped out due to fatigue and one girl who suffered from a sprained ankle. By ten o ' clock most of the participants received a second wind as the end drew closer. At midnight the hundreds of balloons which adorned the S.U. lounge fell victim to enthusiastic students who found various methods of popping them. By the end of the marathon a feel- ing of unity among the contestants was evident as a huge circle was formed. With arms intertwined and legs being kicked in the air there were signs of emotions as all joined in and sung the final song of the marathon I Did It My Way. Coordinator of the event. Janet Conti said I ' ve never seen so much spirit in so many dead yet happy people . The dance marathon has already been praised by many col- lege officials as being one of the most positive actions that has oc- curred on the WSC campus this se- mester. When asked if she would consider being chairperson for the event again Ms. Conti replied. Defi- nitely. I ' d do it again tomorrow if they asked me. A one-legged dance contest held during the marathon saw a desper- ate struggle between Mike Anair and Gary Braese who were compet- ing for a set of new ski poles. After 45 minutes it was called a draw. Both contestants later went on to place first and second, respectively, in the overall competition. Plans are already being made for next year ' s marathon dance which organizers say will offer a trip to Bermuda as first place prize. The winners in this year ' s dance were: 1st - Karen Herbst Mike Anair Raised $315.00 2nd - Kathy Hickey Gary Braese Raised $221.00 3rd - Darleen Belton Dana Ruther- ford Raised $160.00 First place winners received $150 and a trophy for their effort, second place winners took home $100 plus a trophy, while third place winners received a trophy and several al- bums. Sharon Birt and Mikde Des- roches placed fourth raising $152 and Maureen O ' Leary and Frank Smolinsky finished fifth having raised $151.40. Fourth and fifth place winners received certificates and albums.

The show was one of the better musicals Westfielcl has done, with good balance between singers and pit musicians. Scoobee Patterson, Director and TechH nical Designer found enough actors witH nice singing voices and stage presence td fill all of the important roles and make the show fun. Pippin is set in 780 AD, during the reign of Charlemagne. Carol Smith, Roman Alis, Tricia Mullen, ' Steve Rogers, Janice Beaudry, Karl Pur-i and, Michael Rauseo and Michael Hem derson contributed a great deal to thi success of Pippin as did the orchestra and pit choir, directed by Richard Chamr bers. Second semester the Musical Theater Guild presented Dear World . The show, a musical version of the play The Mad Women Of Chaillot is set in Paris during the 1940 ' s. The show ' s directional staff includes Scoobie Patterson as director, Sandee Brayson as choreographer, and Richanj ' Chambers as Musical Director. Company 118 Westfield State College ' s Theatre Company, in as- sociation with Alpha Psi Omega, presented Henrik Ibsen ' s play, A Doll House . The production was directed by senior Theatre major Leslie Bozigian. The play, written in 1879, has modern application in its attempt to dramatize the characters of ordi- nary men and women. Outstanding preformanses were given by: Noel Arsenault, Michael Desroches, and Greg Christie. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead by Tom Stoppard is a modern work stemming from Shakespeare ' s Hamlet .

The 75 or so people were at Westfield State College to attend the 1st Annual Conference of the Histo- ry of Western Massachusetts spon- sored by the Historical Journal of Western Massachusetts and the WSC History Club. The Conference which was termed a great success by Dr. John Ifkovic, director of the meeting and history professor at Westfield State, focused on a num- ber of topics pertinent to Western Massachusetts. The guest speaker for the event was Prof. John P. De- mos from Brandeis University. Dr. Demos, who is the author of a num- ber of books concerning Colonial American History, spoke about Community Studies in History: An Overview. The conference format included a morning and afternoon session. At each session two papers were read by historians from various colleges. Following the reading of the papers a commentator criticized the works and the session was then opened for questions by the audience. The following is a list of papers presented during the day and their authors: The Rise of the New Divinity in Western New England, 1740 - 1800 by Prof. Joseph Conforti from Rhode Island College In The Wake of The Awakening: Ministers and Dissenters in Hamp- shire County, 1750 - 1775 by Gregory Nobles, a PhD. candidate at the University of Michigan Western Massachusetts in the Know-Nothing Years: An Analysis of Voting Patterns by Prof. John Mulkern from Babson College The Presidential Election of 1932 in Western Massachusetts by Prof. Philip Grant Jr. from Pace University The commentators were Prof. Patri- cia Tracy from Williams College (morning session) and Prof. Ronald Formisano from Clark University (afternoon session). Moderators for the conference were John A. Koziol, president of the History club and member of the editorial board of the Journal, and Laurie A. Martinelli, member of the editorial board. According to Dr. Ifkovic and Jo- seph Carvalho III, the associate di- rector of the Conference, the event was organized in order to explore the History of this part of the state in a little more detail than is normal- ly done. It, like the Historical Jour- nal, is dedicated to the publication and dissemination of Western Mas- sachusetts History. The papers which were presented at the Confer- ence will appear in the fall edition of the Journal. The day was not totally devoted to Historical facts and figures. In addi- tion to the two sessions a luncheon was served in Bates Cafeteria and a social hour culminated the events. FIRST MIUAl CO ffERBtCE tti THE HISTORY OF NESTERH MASSACHUSETTS Director John W.

The Owl ' s super- fast track will be the scene of all the team ' s regular season meets as well as the conference championships. Eastern powers Southern Connecticut, Coast Guard and New Haven head the list of teams which will visit WSC this spring. The Owls, defending conference cham- pions, are coming off their most success- ful indoor season. In achieving their team goal, more Owls qualified and competed in the Eastern Championships than ever before. This will also be their outdoor goal, with additional emphasis on defend- ing their conference championship, and qualifying individuals for the National Championships. Keith Albright will be the key to the Owls success in the short sprints. WSC has built a reputation over the years for developing quarter milers, this year is no different with Bruce LaBonte, Scott An- derson, David Wayne and Bob D ' Agnese. Luis Pizzaro and Russ Bosbach will lead the way in the high hurdles. The throwing events will get their strength from Doug Bonora and Joe Mandile. Bob Grandfield will run the three and six mile while Dave Crowley runs the steeplechase. Veterans Don McWhirter, Dan Richards, and George McAllister will also be running in this race. 134 SPORTS SPORTS 135 136 SPORTS :-v- v eii 137 BASEBALL Owls Have Strong Team Anytime a player gets up to bat seven times and comes away with seven hits, one would consider that fairly successful.

Maritime Academy) Beavan went four for four, three home runs and a double, good for seven rbi ' s. Bevan ' s team hasn ' t let him go alone; senior captain Joe Seckler (pittsfield) is leading the club with a solid .464 average with five doubles and two home runs good for 14 runs batted in. Centerfielder Mike Ciampa (Reading) is hitting .383 with six extra base hits and a 15 for 15 mark in stolen bases. Senior catcher Alex Masel (Somerville) is hitting .400 with 12 rbi ' s, John Veneziano (Medford) the teams DH is hitting .426 with 13 bases on balls. Junior catcher Tom Vatcher (Swampscott) is hitting .462 with 11 bases on balls; nine of them coming in a row (a possible college record). This years ' Southern Trip was marked by rain, and inconsistant pitching. Although five games were rained out, Westfield was able to 13, winning 10 of them. 138 SPORTS Mar EGYPTIAN-ISRAELI TREATY SIGNED In Agreement - Egyptian President Anwar Sadat, left, and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin are all smiles after the signing of the peace treaty which ended 30 years of battling between their two countries. COLLEGE COSTS SOAR According to a report by the Col- lege Scholarship Service, released in May, the cost of going to college will jump 9 percent this fall - to an average $5,500 at private schools and $3,200 at public schools. The estimated cost of attending a private school is 10.6 percent more than in 1978-79 and resulting in four years of higher education cost- ing more than $22,000. This in- cludes tuition and campus board, and is equal to about one-third of the median family income in the United States. At a few private col- leges, the study said, the expense budget for 1979-80 will top $9,000. Expenses at public, four year col- leges will average $3,258 the next school year, 8.5 percent more than last year. Annual expenses at some public schools will top $4,400. These rising costs should not discourage students about attend- ing college since financial aid is available, said Joe Paul Case, di- rector of program administration for the service. He said that there will be $12.3 billion available from private and public sources to help students in 1979-80. The College Board is a non-profit association of more than 2,000 schools. It is probably best known for its testing service, but it also of- fers programs in financial aid, guid- ance and research. History was made on Monday March 26, 1979, when Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin signed the peace treaty that ended thirty years of war between the two countries. It is hoped that this trea- ty will lay the cornerstone of peace in the Middle East. For the first time in its 30 year existence, Israel has now the formal recognition and acceptance from the most powerful Arab state and the ultimate prospect of exchang- ing ambassadors and entering into the full range of normal relations. This is what Israel had been seeking since 1948. Diplomats agree that this treaty has markedly reduced the risk of major war in the Middle East by removing Egyptian forces from the active Arab arsenal. The treaty has also demonstrated an American capacity to influence events in the Middle East despite the setbacks Washington has suf- fered since the overthrow of the Shah of Iran. The treaty which was signed on the White House Lawn, did not come easily. The bargaining lasted until late Sunday evening as the two ancien t enemies haggled over the fine points of their agreement. The signing represented a stunning dip- lomatic triumph for Carter, an his- toric breakthrough for Begin whose predecessors were unable to get this far, and a calculated gamble for Sadat who now faces almost solid opposition in the Arab world. All of these men offered prayers in their remarks that this treaty would serve to bring a genuine peace to the Middle East and end the bloodshed that has erupted into war four times since Israel declared its independence on May 14, 1948. By coincidence, they all referred to the words of the prophet Isaiah. Let us work together until the day comes when they beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruninghooks. Begin, who gave the longest and most emotional of the addresses, exclaimed: No more war, no more bloodshed, no more bereavement, peace unto you, shalom, salaam, forever. Shalom and salaam are Hebrew and Arabic words for peace. The signing was followed by an outdoor dinner on the law of the White House for 1,300 guests. At the conclusion of the signing, Carter, Sadat and Begin grasped each other in a three-way hand- shake, despite the outward signs that differences between Egypt and Israel were far from over. QUAKE HITS NEW ENGLAND A small to moderate earth- quake and six aftershocks cen- tered within 10 miles of a Maine nu- clear power plant shook residents of eastern New England, causing mi- nor damage. Geophysics professor Edward T. Chiburis of Boston College ' s Wes- ton Observatory in Weston, Mass. where tremors were monitored on seismographs, said that the quake ' s epicenter was in the Kennebec Riv- er Valley about nine miles west- nothwest of Wiscasset, Maine, where the Maine Atomic Power Co. plant is located. Maine authorities reported the most serious damage was broken windows and pictures knocked from walls. Officials said no injuries were reported. Maine Yankee Atomic Power spo- kesperson Peter Thompson said shock waves were felt by people in the secondary section of the plant. But inside the vital nuclear reactor containment section, they (work- ers) felt nothing. The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ordered Maine Yankee and four other East Coat nuclear plants closed March 13, because analysis revealed design problems with the plants cooling systems and therefore raised concern about po- tential earthquake damage at the facilities. 140 LOG WORST AIR CRASH IN U.S. HISTORY An American Airlines widebodied jet, carrying 272 Memorial Day travelers crashed nose first and broke apart in flames on Friday May 25, in what was termed the worst air disaster in American History. All the passengers aboard the plane, which had taken off from O ' Hare International Airport, were killed. Seconds before the Los Angeles- bound DC-10 jetliner crashed, one of its three engines fell off and land- ed on the runway. The plane hit nose first about one-half mile from O ' Hare airport. Lee Alfano, police chief of the nearby community of Des Plaines, said there were no survivors of the crash which occurred at 3:03 p.m. under clear but windy skies. Several persons on the ground were injured by debris, at least two of them seri- ously enough to require hospitaliza- tion. American Airlines Chairman Al- bert V. Casey promised full cooper- ation with the investigation. Casey said he was personally distraught by the crash and he extended deepest and heartful sympathy to families, relatives, and friends of those who died. Neal Callahan, public affairs offi- cer for the federal Aviation Adminis- tration in Chicago, said a recording of conversations between the pilot and the control tower indicated the tower knew on takeoff there was trouble. The only thing we do know for sure is that he didn ' t have time to talk to the control tower, Callahan said. Asked by reporters whether the plane should have been able to fly with one engine missing Callahan said: Yes, it should fly, no question about that, but that ' s one thing that will be de- termined in a further investigation. The National Transportation Safety Board sent investigators from Washington. Michael Laughlin of Toronto, who filmed the planes descent with a still camera from a window inside the O ' Hare terminal said the engine came off then flew backwards and fluttered to the ground before the plane plummeted. Robert Anderson, who was driv- ing nearby when the plane crashed, said the plane was almost vertical and I almost started to scream be- cause I knew it would not come out of it. It continued almost upside down. As it impacted, flames shot out to where I thought my face was going to be singed. He concluded: When I looked back, it looked like an atomic bomb had exploded. Other eyewitnesses said the left engine came loose, and then the plane banked to the left, shuddered for a few seconds and struck the ground, hitting on its nose and left wingtip at about the same time. Wit- nesses also said the plane appeared to be traveling at an unusually slow speed for a jetliner taking oft. On Monday May 28, the nation ' s chief aviation official, Langhorne Bond, said that the DC-10 airliner was doomed from the moment it left the runway, beyond hope for even the most skilled pilot. He said he believed it would have been im- possible for any pilot to bring the crippled plane under control and coax it to a safe emergency landing While the accident is still under investigation the FFA administrator described what it is known: A bolt that helps hold the engine in place under the wing separated, and the engine then swung up and over the wing. Bond said that this is a plausible description. The eingine does not simply hang beneath the wing, he noted, but actually is pulling the plane behind it. With one of its re- taining bolts gone, the engine could swivel, pivoting around the remain- ing bolts, and action that would take it toward the top of the wing. After separating the engine may well have hit the flaps and ailerons, critical control surfaces on the trail- ing edge of the wing. I certainly think the airplane suffered substan- tial damage when the engine and pylon assembly came off. Bond said. And I don ' t see any reason to think that the airplane could have continued its flight after that point. Senate Millionaires Financial disclosure reports show that the U.S. Senate is awash in mil- lionaires, from John Heinz ' s pickle- and-catsup fortune to Ruby Bosch- witz ' s millions in plywood. But the Senate is a rich man ' s club no longer - now that millionair- ess Nancy Kassebaum has taken her seat. The reports reveal at least 19 senators have personal or family wealth of at least a million dollars. That ' s nearly one of every five members of the Senate. Another 18 have assets that could place them in the million dol- lar circle. The total number of mil- lionaries could be even higher. Sens. Lowell Weicker, R-Conn., and Herman Talmadge, D-Ga., reported to be millionaires, received an ex- tension to file their disclosure forms, so no information on their finances was available. A few senators have limited means or apparently in debt. Sen. Donald Stewart, D-Ala., re- ported assets of $555,000 to 890,000 and liabilities of $505,000 to $1.1 million. Sen. Spark Matsunaga, D-Hawaii, has assets of $56,000 and liabilities of between $15,000 and $50,000, while Sen. Paul Tsongas, D-Mass., has assets of $199,000 but liabili- ties of slightly over $150,000 - in- cluding a Yale Law School loan of $808.47. Senators were required to divulge the information about their hold- ings and outside income under a law requiring disclosures about mem- bers of the House of Representa- tives, Cabinet officials, U.S. Su- preme Court justices and other highranking officials. It is not possible to determine the exact amount of a senator ' s wealth, since the disclosure form requires listing assets and liabilities within dollar ranges. But the material does provide a glimpse into the personal finances of some of the country ' s most well- known politicians. Sen. Bill Bradley, D-N.J., tagged as Dollar Bill after signing a lucra- tive professional basketball con- tract more than a decade ago, now qualifies as Million Dollar Bill . Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., said he has assets of $1.3 million to $3 million, but much of his holdings are in blind trusts of unknown size. The Senator ' s richest man ap- pears to be Heinz, R-Pa., whose as- sets are so large that he doesn ' t know how much he has. 67 HURT IN BOSTON HOTEL FIRE Two early morning hotel fires sent thousands of dazed and fright- ened guests onto Boston streets on Thursday March 29. Ten persons were seriously burned by the inten- tionally set blazes which erupted within 90 minutes of each other. No deaths were reported. Police said that 67 pers ons were injured. According to Fire Commis- ioner George H. Paul, the fires at the chic Copley Plaza and the Sheraton Boston Hotel were defi- nitely set. Paul also said that secu- rity at other hotels in the city was being heightened. A fire department spokesman said that six fires were set in seper- ate locations of the Copley, includ- ing one on the third floor, four in seperate locations in the basement, and one on the first floor, where drapes were ignited. In the Sheraton, four seperate fires were set, one in a second floor lounge and three in different areas of the third floor. Officials said they had no su- spects in the fires and did not know what was used to set them. The fire at the Copley started at 1:04 a.m.: the fires at the Sheraton, just two blocks away, started at 2:26 a.m. More than fifty guests at the Cop- ley were rescued over ladders, and firemen battled thick smoke in their search for other guests. More than 300 people made their way down stairwells in the six-story gray stone building. Copley manager Alan Tremain said the third floor was completely gutted and the ' other floors were badly damaged. He estimated dam- age at more than $1 million. Dam- age at the Sheraton was estimated at $250,000. A hotel spokesman there said that there were some 1,400 people registered. The Cop- ley Plaza reported the 430 guests were registered. Capt. John Collins, a fire depart- ment spokesman, said the fires at the Sheraton started in the Falstaff room near the lobby, and in the fourth floor room above the lounge, cutting power in several sections of the hotel and sending smoke throughout most of the 29 floors. Both fires were under control about two hours after they started, and personnel in both hotels were busy making arrangements for guests to stay at other hotels. The Sheraton also set up a temporary shelter at the large Hines Audito- rium, which adjoins the building. Guests at the Copley were allowed back in the rooms to pick up pos- sessions. A few guests opted to stay in rooms which were not severely damaged, but most looked for oth- er places to stay. LOG 141 Four Westfield Administrators Cut Westfield State College President Francis J. Pilecki has cut four ad- ministrators from the 1980 fiscal budget. Pilecki said he will not publicly disclose the names of the four being terminated because he does not wish to embarrass them. They will have until the end of the current fiscal year in June to submit resig- nations. Governor Edward Kind had re- quested a reduction of more than $200,000 from the WSC budget, and the administrative cuts are an effort by Pilecki to meet that re- quest. Two of the affected individuals were earning $25,000, another $24,000 and the fourth $33,000 - a total savings of $107,000. Pilecki said the cuts were made within the administration because the college cannot afford to lose any faculty po- sitions. I want to reassure the WSC community that in the event any cuts have to be made, they will be taken from the non-faculty areas for as long as possible, Pilecki said, We will do everything possible to keep the faculty at full strength to best serve the students. Only the most necessary posi- tions remain in the WSC budget and Pilecki said the college now needs the support of the Legislature to avoid further cuts. NUKE ACCIDENT WORST IN U.S. HISTORY Spenkelink Convicted Murderer Executed Convicted murderer John A. Spenkelink was put to death in Flor- ida ' s electric chair on Friday May 25. Spenkelink was the first prison- er executed against his will in the United States in more than 12 years. Spenkelink, 30, was pronounced dead at 10:18 a.m. at the Florida State Prison. He received the first jolt of electricity at 10:13 a.m. After the first surge, which singed the skin on his right calf, sending smoke into the death chamber, Spenkelink received another jolt of electricity. A doctor was then called to check his heart at 10:14 a.m. At 10:18 he was pronounced dead. The con- demned man had lost his last hope of reprieve four minutes before the scheduled 10 a.m. execution when the Supreme Court in Washington voted 6-2 to deny a stay. Lawyers for Spenkalink had presented a peti- tion for a stay to the court clerk at 7 Spenkalink was the first man ex- ecuted in the United States since Gary Gilmore willingly faced a firing squad in Utah on January 17, 1977. Before that no executions had been carried out in this country since 1967. Meanwhile, a Death Row com- panion, Willie Jasper Darden Jr., won a temporary reprieve from the electric chair. Dardens reprieve was granted 15 hours before he and Spenkalink were to die. The stay was granted by U.S. District judge William T. Hodges, who ruled in Tampa that Darden must be given time to appeal in the courts. Darden claimed that the prosecuter made inflammatory remakrs during his 1974 trial. Hodges said that Darden, 45, cannot be executed until a full hear- ing is held in federal court on his petition. The appeal is Darden ' s first in the federal court system. Several continuing leaks from a crippled nuclear power plant seeped radiation unchecked into the Pennsylvania countryside Thursday, March 29th, in the worst nuclear accident in U.S. history. Low levels of radiation could be de- tected in the atmosphere as far as 20 miles away. But the danger of a nuclear reac- tor core meltdown had lessened enough for officials to turn off the emergency core cooling system that had been used to keep the re- actor at the Three Mile Island nucle- ar station under control. In Washington, a report from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission re- vealed that the facility had been shut down for six days four months ago, in December 1978, for the same type of water pump break- down that triggered the power plant ' s problems this time. The re- port was made to Congress in Janu- ary. The NRC said officials of Metro- politan Edison Co., part owner of the facility, failed for three hours Wednesday to discover that radi- ation had been set off by a rupture of uranium-fuel rods and that radio- active steam was escaping into the atmosphere. Met-Ed and NRC officials said ra- diation continued late Thursday to leak from various contaminated areas from within an auxiliary build- ing. About 20,000 roentgens - 40 times the lethal level - were being measured at the top of the dome of the reactor building as a result of the radiation leakage, the NRC said. But a spokesman said that might be a false reading because measure- ments taken outside the unmanned reactor building were not enough to reflect the 20,000 reading inside. Whether the reading was false or not, officials were certain that radi- ation within the reactor room was extremely high. All but a tiny frac- tion of that radiation was retained in the field room by it ' s three-foot- thick concrete walls. Met-Ed President Walter Creitz said that no workers were contami- nated or injured, although eight had been exposed to higher-than-nor- mal levels of radiation. Two scientists Thursday accused Met-Ed of lying to the public about the seriousness of the accident and contended it would affect people living in the area. Anti-nuclear expert Dr. Erneat Sternglass, a radiologist at the Unv. of Pittsburgh, said that he believed pregnant women within two miles of the plant site probably should leave. Dr. George Wald, a biologist and 1967 winner of the Nobel Prize, said that the harmful effects of the acci- dent would be long range and prob- ably wouldn ' t show up for 30 to 40 years in an increase in cancer rates. The NRC said that last year the Three Island facility was forced to close 20 times, including six times in December over equipment or op- eration br eakdowns. The NRC told a congressional briefing that eight problems, includ- ing two apparent human errors worsened Wednesday ' s accident and resulted in radioactive expo- sure to at least eight workers and triggered concern over the health of thousands of other central Penn- sylvanians. 65,000 MARCHERS CONDEMN NUKES! The larges anti-nuclear power crowd ever to assemble in the Unit- ed States, upwards of 65,000 by of- ficial estimates, marched on the Capital on Sunday May 6, 1979. During the March California Gov. Edmund Brown Jr. urged demon- strators to seek a moratorium on new nuclear power plant construc- tion in their states. No more nukes-No more Harris- burgs, the demonstrators chanted and raised signs reading Hello no, we won ' t glow as their huge pro- cession swung along Pennsylvania Avenue in bright sun. U.S. Park Police estimated an early afternoon crowd of 65,000 jammed the area at the foot of Cap- ital Hill to protest the dangers of nuclear power. The gathering far surpassed previous anti-nuclear demonstrations that drew 20,000 in San Francisco in April and up to 25,000 at Seabrook, N.H., last year. Brown, a nuclear power foe and one of the few elected officials invit- ed to speak, said governors and leg- islators have the power, as they had in California, to enact moratori- um on new nuclear power plants. Demand that in your state. Nuclear power is a health issue, it ' s an environmental issue, but fun- damentally it ' s a political issue, said Brown. If you ' re not building from the future, you ' re stealing from it. Join life - join the moratori- um now. In an interview with United Press International, Brown was critical of the President and the Washington establishment. Washington has been insensitive to the risks nuclear po wer - the issues of safety, waste disposal and the possibility of sabo- tage - constitutes to the American people. Jimmy Carter, James Schlesinger and Congress - togeth- er and individually - could have act- ed to lead the country on a more bening path, he said. The demonstrators were mostly from the Northeast, but all sections of the country were represented. Speakers and entertainers included Ralph Nader, Dick Gregory, Janel Fonda and Tom Hayden. 142 LOG DRINKING AGE RAISED As of 2 a.m. on Monday April 16. 1979, it became illegal for individ- uals under the age of 20 to drink in Massachusetts. Gov. Edward King implemented the bill passed by the state legislature raising the legal ' drinking age from 18 to 20. 1 King, in a letter delivered to the : Secretary of State ' s office at 2 a.m. on April 16, said the change in the 1 legal drinking age is needed to pre- serve the peace, health and con- science and safety of the citizens of :the Commonweatlh. As the governor ' s letter was being ■ delivered, 18 and 19 year olds at bars and pubs were raising their glasses legally for the last time in the Bay State. Spokesmen for po- lice departments throughout the state said they are going to play the enforcement of the new law by ear. None of the departments reported the development of any specific strategies, but said they would re- spond to complaints as they arise. The new law makes possesion a crime and anyone under age 20 car- rying an alcoholic beverage can be arrested and fined $50. Also anyone who buys liquor for a person under 20 can be fined $300. EFFECT NEW LAW WILL HAVE ON WSC CAMPUS In an official statement released riday April 7, 1979, by Dean James VIcKenna, Vice President of Stu- dent Services, changes in the cam- dus drinking policy have been es- ablished. The policy change was jrompted by the new Massachu- etts state law providing that indivi- duals be 20 years-old or older in irder to drink or buy alcoholic bev- rages. According to McKenna, The only hanges in regulations regarding al- ohol, other than age, will be that he only acceptable identification or the purposes of entering an area n which alcohol will be served will e a Massachusetts dirvers license or a liquor identification card issued by the Registry of Motor Vehicles, and drinking alcohol in public places will no longer be permitted. McKenna said that the new law does not change the standing policy of holding activities involving the vending of alcohol in a controlled area, this is nothing new, he said, we ' ve been doing this all along. McKenna said that there will now have to be planned activities for those who are not legally of age to procure alcohol, because this group will be larger whereas before, they were in the minority. He conclud- ed that the emphasis will be on the activity rather than on the alcohol. First Lady Comes To Springfield First Lady Rosalynn Carter hon- ored Springfield ' s city school school volunteers during a visit on March 20. Appearing at New North Elementary school. Mrs. Carter ad- dressed about 1,500 volunteers and invited guests. Her visit to iSpringfield is part of a national tour ito honor and promote volunteer [and community service programs. During her address to the stand- ing room only crowd, Mrs. Carter advocated less dependency on gov- ernment and more use of people power in local communities to solve problems. She said that the Springfield school volunteers were an inspiration to the whole coun- try. She advised that we need to (bridge the gap between having the [impulse to be involved and develop- ing services through which people can participate. ' Focusing on national problems, she suggested that Americans fight inflation and conserve energy, not by whining and complaining but by slashing 10 or 15 percent from their family budget. Introducing Mrs. Carter was U.S. Rep. Edward Boland. D-Springfield, who said it was a great and histor- ic day, more than a footnote to his- tory. He added that this was the first time we ' ve had a visit from a first lady since 1779. That visit was made by Abigail Adams, wife of President John Adams. Mrs. Cart- er ' s visit began about noon when her plane touched down at Wes- tover Air Force Base in Chicopee. She was greeted by Mrs. King. Bo- land, Springfield Mayor Theodore Dimauro, Chicopee Mayor John P. Moylan, and Brig. Gen. Donald E. Haguen, commander of the 439th Tactical Airlift Wing. The W.S.C. Historical Journal Published 1978-79 was the seventh year that the History Club of WSC pub- lished the Historical Journal of Western Massachusetts. Devel- oped and directed by Dr. Martin Kaufman, the Journal has grown from a small and relatively insig- nificant publication into one that has received some measure of ac- claim. The Journal, which is commit- ted to publishing several student papers in each issue, has received many articles from professional historians and advanced graduate students from across the country. The articles published in the Jour- nal are listed in the Journal of American History, American His- torical Review and America; His- tory and Life. The Journal has 200 paid subscribers from 31 states and 3 countries. CAMPUS PSYCHED As another school year came to an end it was time for everyone to get psyched for the biggest so- cial binge of the year: Spring Weekend. The favorite holiday of Westfield State College. Starting on Friday. May 11th classes ended at noon and the partying began. At about 1:00 the first band Ellis Hall played a 90 minute set, followed by Shennan- doh, which was a blend of soft country rock. Zachariah came next, their music was a combina- tion of southern and Californian rock. After the concert everyone headed over to the outdoor bar- beque. Friday night the movie Close Encounters Of The Third Kind was shown in Dver. The band Tractor played in the C.C. Saturday morning the sky was filled with dark clouds which opened up just about the time the bands were to start. The Stomp- ers. The Blend and Pousette Dart were all moved in doors much to the dismay of Hundreds of W.S.C. students. 143 AFTER TERM PAPER WRITING CLASS OF 1979 GRADUATES! The typewriter commands my desk still, Beside it a barrel with its fill (and then some). There are still two or three pages I should change somehow, But I ' m through with term paper writing now. Oh, I ' m sure there are commas out of place, And that I probably used improper case. There ' s even a page I typed out twice To be sure the length would suffice. Footnotes and me never did agree, Nor was I ever sure of bibliographies. But it ' s done, it ' s stapled — it has to be! It ' s due tomorrow — today at 8:30. Oh, it was a struggle . . . I know my research should have been more, But enemy Sleep is at my door — again. And I ' m about to let him in. For I can no longer rub the strain in my sight From typing too long with high intensity light. And my back, wounded from holding his position, Cries out as I rise and prepare for submission. But my mind, grown accustom to the fight, Will not turn off as easy as the light. Yes . . . I ' m sure I know the exact shape That my dreaming is about to take. Still struggling with sentence construction That never seem to reach perfection. With the sandman I ' ll continue the searching For that illusive quote I read somewhere in passing. Still feeling the fustration of striking the wrong key, And calling for concentration even while I sleep. But it ' s done . . . complete . . . tomorrow I ' ll feel better, And take pride in finishing an 18 pager. Oh, I know it ' s not my best, but what can you do When you got three papers due. (at least it ' ll be on time) Oh, Enough! — I surrender, come my friend Lets make peace. This day is long past its end. (or just begun) I don ' t care right now If I get a C or D, I ' m going to sleep. By Lionel Audette With Apologies To Robert Frost Nearly 700 graduates received de- grees at the 140th Westfield State Col- lege commencement which was held on Saturday May 26, 1979 at the Springfield Civic Center. Principle speaker at the graduation was Dr. Jill Ker Conway, president of Smith Col- lege. Addressing the graduates and many guests, Dr. Conway urged that Horace Mann, the founder of the College, be remembered for his work and support for universal popular education. She asked the students not to lose the earlier idealism and passionate belief of educating every mind. In order to pre- serve equal rights, freedom of. the press, justice, civil liberties and the advancement of the race, she ' said young graduates must pledge a public service. Today we tend to view edu- cation as a private process for the mar- ketable skills to be sold in the market to the highest concern, and not for public service, she added. Dr. Conway told the students they must rediscover the nobility of the human spirit, that the country ' s an- cestors possessed and that the stu- dents would have more joy in their talents, if they served society. Dr. Francis J. Pilecki, president of Westfield State College, awarded Dr. Conway an honorary degree in educa- tion for her dedicated leadership in higher education, and for unfolding the talents of our young people. Arthur Fiedler, conducter of the Bos- ton Pops Orchestra, who was unable to attend the ceremony because of ill- ness, was awarded an honorary Doctor of Music degree as showman par ex- cellence . . . your music and your pres- ence bring joy to America. Katherine Dunham, dancer, teacher and author received an honorary Doc- tor of Fine Arts degree for her intel- lect and sensitivity have enriched our lives. Nancy Baumann of Hinsdale and Elizabeth A. Caruso of Marlboro, both seniors, received the President ' s award for their academic excellence maintaining the highest grade average for four years.

The graduation exercises marked the close of a decade. The last class of the 1970 ' s had graduated. The 1970 ' s was a decade which, in many ways, was very different from previous decades of the American past. All decades, perhap unfairly, are remembered and recorded for the major events and experiences which dominated the news and minds of the American public and reflected the social, cultural and po- litical climate of the times. It is not difficult to recall, for example, what the 1950 ' s were all about, To this decade are linked such words and names as saddle shoes, leather jack- ets, the malt shop, the hop, Eugene McCarthy, the Korean War and the space program. At best we recall only the highlights of the 50 ' s. Aided by a surge of nostalgia for this peri- od, through movies and programs such as Happy Days, Laverne and Shirley, American Graffitti and Grease, we remember this decade, not for social consciousness and po- litical activism, but for conformity, clean American fun, patriotism and passivity. On the other hand the 1960 ' s project in our minds a period of unrest, nonconformity, change, questioning and searching. During this decade America re-evaluated it- self and tried to find itself, as so many Americans Were doing. During these years it seemed like everyone had a dream about what America was and should be. Social reform, equality, and civil rights was the name of the game. The second half of the decade is without doubt linked to anti-Vietnam and anti- establishment. If passivity de- scribes the 50 ' s, activism describes the 60 ' s. Perhaps at times this might of sounded like too meek a word. Walkouts, sit-ins, sit-out, take- overs, riots, and demonstrations re- mind us otwhat life was like for many Americans. Kent State still emerges in our minds as we travel back to this era. John and Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King were more than leaders they were martyrs and cru- saders for the cause of peace and equality. Technical advances of the decade were reflected in man ' s first walk on the moon. The seventies quickly emerged and before most expected the turmoil of the previous decade disappeared. But the seven- ties brought with it its own prob- lems, causes to fight for, beliefs and highlights. The Vietnam war ended, American soldiers returned home to a less than warm welcome, The Unit- ed States continued its exploration of space, and Americans became more and more interested in world peace. But these are not what the decade of the seventies will be most remembered for. Without question all Americans will recall Watergate and the resignation of President Richard Nixon as the most impor- tant event of this decade as well as of the century. Many viewed the res- olution of Watergate as an example that the system worked, while others saw it as an all to clear exam- ple that politicians are corrupt and self seeking. On the social and cul- tural scene we will recall with fond memories disco music, d dancing, disco clothing and fash- ions, discotechques and all the that went along with this revolt in music. The decade also saw a re- surgence of apathy, intellectualism and passivity. On the economic scene, inflation, recession, the ener- gy crisis, $1.00 a gallon gasoline and the heated debate concerning nu- clear power will stand out. Obviously the recollection we have of previous decades are sketchy at best. We have forgotten many of the events that have shaped Amerca during these years. But this is, perhaps, only natural. We were part of these decades; we shared many of the highlights of these years. The seventies, for most of us, have the most relevance for it was this decade that we were most a part of, and shared most in. We are, also, the generation which will deter- mine the next decade. Much of what we do and believe will shape the 80 ' s. What will the 1980 ' s be like? For sure the beginning of the 80 ' s will be much like the past few years. It will probably be a quiet time when Americans attempt to plan the path we will follow. For sure also it will be a time of great change and progress. Whatever the 1980 ' s has in store for us we will recall it someday as we do the 70 ' s, 60 ' s and 50 ' s. We will be reminded of the large events and im- pressions which seemed to had shaped the History of that period. We will never forget, however that we were, in many senses, the 70 ' s.
