Seniors Get Their WishBy Dennis Myers
•Sludfnts a re just not responsible enough to pick the graduation speaker. Students tend to go with lads. I should pick the eom- niencenient speaker two years ahead without (the participation of) the senior c lass .”
I’resident VVilliain VV. Ilagerty .
Dr. Isaac Asimov, the seniors’ f irst choice this year, has accepted an invitation to be the 1976 com m encem ent speaker. While more responsibility by the seniors might have been an aid in bringing Asimov to Drexel, “ The Drexel J in x ’’ w as probably the more determ ining factor in the decision. For the past four years , D rexel’s c o m m e n c e m e n t s p e a k e r h av e e ither lost or resigned from the positions they held. In 1972, General George Lincoln, Head of the Office of E m ergency P rep aredness spoke. T hree months la ter, the office was abolished. In 73, then vice-president Spiro Agnew delivered the speech. A few m o n th s l a t e r Agnew delivered a shorter speech to a federal judge and no one contested his resignation. Sam E rv in was the next to address Drexel g raduates. Me announced his re tirem en t within the following year. Last year, form er S ecre tary of Comm erce iiogers C. Morton accepted the
Drexel invitation. The following November he becam e a casualty of F ord ’s “ Sunday M assacre .”
According to Senior Class officers Paul Pellulo (P res .) and Susan S tren ch o k (V .P .) , P re s id e n t Hagerty did not want a politician. In the final meetings of the Honors and Awards Committee of the B oard of T ru s te e s , H ag e r ty suggested that the m em bers consider the recom m endations of the seniors and Public Observances ( ’om m ittee of the faculty. The group suggested some of the sam e people but the priorities differed. As a result of “ the Drexel J in x ” and H agerty’s suggestions, Asimov was contacted. “ We were surprised but v e ry p le a sed th a t they chose someone the students w an t,” the c lass officers echoed.
Dr. Walter Heaton, Chairman of the P u b lic O b se rv a n c e s C om mittee, s ta ted that for the past couple of years , the m em bers of his com mittee have tried to recom mend people with a primarily a c a d e m ic b ack g ro u n d . A sim ov, while more known for his writing, does possess a strong academ ic credentials.
Asimov received his Bachelor of Science degree from Columbia L niversity in 1939 at the age of 19. He rem ained at Columbia where he received his m asters in 1941 and
Ph.D. in Chemistry in 1949. After a year of post-doctoral research in anti-m alaria l drugs, he was offered and a c c e p te d an a s s i s t a n t professorship in Bio chem istry at the M edical School of Boston University. In 1958 he gave up the position but s t i l l r e ta in e d h is assistant professorship and becam e a full-time w riter and lecturer. Asimov has, of course, gained his world reputation not as a chemist, but as a prolific science fiction writer. Included among some of his greatest works a re the Foundation Trilogy and the Robot Series.
Seniors get their wish as Dr. Issac Asimov will be commencement speaker May 29, 1976.
Housing Report Describes N e w DormBy Shirley Singer
T he bas ic r e q u i re m e n ts for Drexel’s proposed new dorm as determ ined by a com mittee on housing have been compiled by Jo h n S o n g s te r , D irec to r of Residential Living. The conclusions of the report a re that the “ total d e m a n d for s ing le s tu d e n t residence hall accomodations at D rexe l U n iv e rs ity exceed the present Drexel owned supply and this dem and will continue to grow through 1985” and “ an additional residence hall is needed.”
During the fall te rm of 1975 the dem and for accomodations exceed the supply. By fall te rm of 1977, the tieed for 40U additional spaces is projected. Based on the history of Drexel enrollment and increases in the percentages of Drexel students seeking resident status, a graph was constructed to predict the housing needs. According to the analysis, a minimum of 14(X) ad ditional housing spaces will be required by 1985.
With these statistics in mind, the plan for a new dorm was conceived.
'I'he report listed five objectives to Ih* fullfilled by student housing. The do rm m ust p rov ide 1.) op- |M)rtunities for individual growth and d ev e lo p m en t, 2.) an e n vironment conducive to learning and re f le c t in g re spon s ib le c i t iz ensh ip , 3.) gu id e line s for coopt>rative community living, 4.) maintenance of the facilities, and 5.) a satisfactory physical environment through growth and renovation.

'Get Tough' Approadi on Grammar Receives SupportBy Karl Schaeffer
On M arch 3,1976 the faculty of the C ollege of B u s in e s s and Adm inis tration passed a resolution saying in part “ the College of Business and Administration will continue to encourage the use of g e n e ra l ly a c c e p ta b le o ra l and w r i t te n c o m m u n ic a t io n in all courses w herever practical and feasible.” This includes “ the use of proper g ram m er , style of delivery, and organization as well as on the content of the presen ta tion .” This resolution addresses a recently recognized deficiency in the oral and w ritten skills of college level s tu d e n ts . In m a n y in s ta n c e s , colleges a re instituting remedial courses to correct these deficiencies.
About a year ago Dr. An-Min Chung, U ndergraduate IVogram
Director for the College received feedback from two sources which c a u se d h im to ques t io n the usefulness of the courses offered by the D epartm ent of Humanities and Communication. He had received som e c o m p la in ts from s tu d e n ts abou t the ap p l ic a t io n of K-200, Fundam entals of Communication, to a Business education. R-2(K), a course dealing with m ass communication is required by the College. F ro m a n o th e r d irec tio n , some alumni have said that re cent graduates couldn’t write effectively and couldn’t function on
t h e j o b .T his s i tu a t io n p ro m p ted a
meeting between the curriculum com mittee headed by Dr. Joseph Ford of Accounting and Dr. Martha Montgomery, Head of Humanities- ( ’o m m u tu ca t io n s . h rom the
discussions that took place, the com mittee drafted the resolution. In essence, the resolution sta tes that it recognizes that the College of Humanities and Social Sciences is doing its best within constraints. With backup from the business faculty the skills learned in the Humanities courses will be constantly used and exercised.
The trend in teaching today is to emphasize short answer and objective tests. It is very ra re that a student has to write a long dissertation. According to Dr. Ford, the skills learned in the Humanities courses a re soon lost if they a re not practiced.
In order to function, or more impt>rtantly to be a contributing m em ber of our society, a person must be able to articulate his ideas th ro u g h w r i t te n and o ra l e x
pression, A person can be sem iliterate in our modern society; but the semi-literate, in a majority of cases, will be passed over and will never be able to realize a full potential.
Dr. Montgomery, who worked closely with the curriculum committee in structuring the resolution, sa id tha t it is “ the most en l ig h te n ed , p ro g re ss iv e and c o n s t ru c t iv e ” a n sw e r to the problem facing higher education today . In m any u n iv e rs i t ie s , English Departm ents a re hurrying to install remedial or “ bonehead” co u rse s in com posit ion and g ram m ar. At Drexel a concerted effort is l>eing made on all fronts to combat these deficiencies. No one is placing blame for the crim e or trying to shirk their duties, a concerted effort is l)eing made to
help the victim (i.e. the student).

Drop in SAT Scores Of co u rse , m any c o m p la in ts
about “ functional illiteracy” are merely the harrumphing of the old guaid brooding about the disappearance of the good old days. But there is new evidence of basic problems coming from a spectrum of institutions. The most glaring example is the precipitous drop in SAT scores during the past few y e a rs . The d rop is e spec ia lly noticeable in verbal scores. The verbal part ol the SAT tests g r a m m a r , spelling and c o m position V erbal S cores have dropped from an average 478 to 434 since l%3 and math scores have

Workshop Shows ApathyBy Anita Brando!ini
The co-op workshop sponsored by Student Congress held on Thursday March 4 was well attended by faculty, adm inistra tors , and co-op coord ina tdb , but there was a noticeable lack of student p a r ticipation. In spite of this, those who attended the workshop seem ed to feel that some very good ideas cam e out of it.
Jeanne Brugger, Associate Dean of C o o p e ra t iv e E d u c a t io n , rem arked , “The easy thing is to label it apathy - but I’m not really sure what the causes of this apathy a re .” She said that she felt Student Congress did a good job in choosing the tim e for the event and the publicizing it.
S e v e ra l m a in top ics w e re discussed by the separa te workshop groups. One was the need for pre- and post- counseling of students, in order to help them gain the m axim um benefits from the co-op experience.
Those present felt that many s tu d e n ts h av e u n re a l i s t i c e x pectations about co-op. They think that jobs will be easy to find, pay well, and be directly related to their field. The coordinators explained that, especially with the current economic situation, co-op jobs a re not easy to come by. and a student may not find exactly what he wants.
The coordinators also pointed out
the need for s tudents to establish priorities as to what they hope to gain from co-op. If their p rim ary consideration is financial, they will be looking for a different sort of job than students who a re looking for experience in the ir chosen field. Some jobs m ay not be directly related to the field, but can give the co-op student valuable experience in dealing with people and working w ith in th e s t r u c t u r e of an organization.
Most of those present in the discussion group felt that one of the m a jo r reasons s tudents have such high expectations for co-op is the U ndergraduate Admissions Office handling of prospective freshm en. Several students said tha t the co-op program was an im portant factor in their decision to com e to Drexel. They feel that they w ere given an unrealistic idea of what co-op en tails and how it works.
Everyone present - students, f a c u l ty , an d a d m in i s t r a to r s - s tressed the need for more student input into the co-op program . Co-op reports a re presently the only way a student can survey prospective jobs, and even this system has faults, as only the best reports a re kept on open file. Those present seem ed to feel that the best system would involve som e direct student a nd fa c u l ty c o n ta c t w ith prospective co-op students.

Mrs. Simqu is a good instructor, but v e ry d e m a n d in g on h e r students.

fallen from 5<)2 to 472.Some of the b lam e has been
placed on the secondary schooling most young people receive today. In one study done by the University of ( 'hicago it has been noted that there has been an 11% drop in English course enrollment during the past two years . G ram m ar, is now only a part of the English curriculum in m any high schools. And if the program is elective, a m ajority of students will pick other courses to avoid basic g ram m ar . As a result s tu d e n ts g r a d u a t in g from high

(iroucho Marx and Joan Baez" one Philadelphia a rea teacher quoted as saying in this months issue of Philadelphia Magazine "and they’ll judge you on your performance* If it’s good enough, they’ll listen to the subject m atter. If not, they won’t.”
While the prior education of a student is not completely to blame, by the time a student reaches college he or she is lacking in basic E ng lish sk ills . What does the college do? One university official said “ We’re getting verbally gifted students who can ’t organize their thoughts in writing.” If a student has never really been exposed to language skills he c an ’t be expected to know them. In many instances, incoming freshm an a re sm arte r but lack exposure to language skills.

In college where the teacher-student relationship is based on mutual r e s p e c t , t e a c h in g g r a m m a r is difficult to do.
Some of the students who have gone th ro u g h the e d u c a t io n a l process a re now English teachers. In some instances it is possible for iiii English tt 'acher to be certified without taking a course in English composition. It is much like the blind leading the blind. In a recent Newsweek cover story Why .lohnny < an 't K rad .James Knapton said “ I leally worry about the grea t unwashed m asses of students sloshing around out there. D iagram m ing .sentences is out, no one teaches Shakespear anym ore...If they (the teachers) don’t know, how on earth a re they supposed to teach the ch ild ren?”
Television is often blamed for reducing the minds of school-age children to so much slush. TV ente rta ins but dem ands no really active learning. While a definite study on TV's effect on children has not yet been done, it is known the lim e spent watching TV could be spent reading and the passiveness of viewing has a bad effect of a child’s active pursuit of writing.
The enterta in ing effect of TV may l)e a ttributing cause to a trend in packaged en terta inm ent education “\ ou ’ve got to be a combination of
sm art kid with deficiencies” said .John McCullough, Dean of Underg raduate Admissions,” We have to get the best students and work with them .”
This sentiment is echoed by every official at Drexel interviewed for this article. While it’s not good that a student c an ’t read or write well the college should m ake an effort to increase the m astery of language skills. Schools such as Ohio State, {’olumbia and Berkley have instituted basic English courses for entering freshmen. In many cases the le m e d ia l c o u rse s c a u se budgetary conflicts. When Ohio State went to the sta te government lor money, the Ohio Board of Kegents said that the taxpayer shouldn’t be charged a second time lor something that was paid for in the high schools. The cost of le m e d ia l e d u ca t io n is h ig h e r because of sm aller student-faculty latios. use of tutors, and the stretching out over two or three te rm s work that would ordinarily t)e covered in a single term . Most colleges want to address the need for rem edial courses but a re hindered by lack of money.
.\t Drexel there a re presently two courses offered to help develop reading and writing skills. During sum m er pre-registration all incoming freshmen take a reading lest. This test along with other factors gives an indication of the students’ language skills. If the

The program is geared to increase the student’s reading skills. While the program is geared to freshman in the fall it is opened to the upperclassm en in the Winter and Spring . Many t im e s an u p perclassm an wants to increase his reading ability in preparation for grad school.
If a student shows a lack of writing skills, he is asked to sign up for K-9(K) “ Fundam entals of Written ( 'om munication.” This course deals with the basics of composition and g ram m ar. Kight now H-900 is limited because of lack of funds to set up a proper program.
The consensus of opinion of the people interviewed is that the recently passed resolution is a giant s tep in the r igh t d irec tio n Piofessors should feel encouraged to grade on form and content. Even if a student turns in a paper that has the correct facts, if the form is tiad the whole discourse will suffer. Hopefully, the other colleges at Drexel will agree with the spirit of the resolution and act in kind.

The report suggested an approximately 400 capacity dorm, with no more than 56 residents per fl(K)r and divided into two distinct wings of 28 residents per wing. Each wing would have its own kitchen and t>ath facilities and a study lounge equippi'd with study tables, chairs, and two large design tables Also space and facilities for the installation of washers and dryers on each wing would be required.
On the ground floor, one main entrance/exit would face Kelly Mall. A conference rw m for about 20. a moderate office and an apartm ent for the dirt'ctor would also I)e designed into the ground floor.

Editor, Drexel T riangle:In response to the two le t te rs in te
last issue of the Triangle concerning Wintei' Weekend, I would like to ask the au thors of those letters if they really thought that the entire Winter Weekend was a failure because of one isolated incident.
We did have a coatcheck problem a t the m ixer; we m ade a m istake, and I doubt tha t the m istake will be repeated. I can apprec ia te the unhappiness of the people tha t had their belongings ta k e n ; I also had a jacket stolen.
However, to take a four-night event, with its hundreds of details, point to ONE m istake and say, “ See, the whole thing was a flop” is ridiculous! In fact, that sta tem ent is even more ridiculous in light of the fact that aesthetically , as well as financially. Winter Weekend ’76 was the best planned, produced, and attened Winter Weekend ever!
I would also like to ask the authors of those le tters if they didn’4 use Winter Weekend as an excuse to do a hatchet job on Edie Hathaway and Lou Vandenbosch. That “ bozo Lou” did an especially good job of helping to produce the beerblast and the mixer. If I had a personal dislike of someone. I ’d tell that person about it face to face, and not go after them in a le tter su p p o se d ly c o n c e rn in g a n o th e r subject.
All I can say is, to the people who really thought they had a legitim ate c o m p la in t c o n c e rn in g W in te r Weekend, is tha t there will be another Winter Weekend next year, for which planning will s ta r t in sum m er te rm . If you’re really concerned, show up and help out.

Re: WinterWeekend
Editor, Drexel T riangle:As a nutrition student, I was
appalled and even em b a rra ssed by the f lagrant m isinform ation and nutritional fa lacies p resented in Ms. K rau ss’ art ic le on Vitamins in last w eek’s Triangle.
E ither Ms. K rauss has failed to do her nutrition homework or has su c c u m b e d to fa l s e n u t r i t io n a l sensationalism , for m any of her s ta tem en ts a re bla tantly incorrect. P a rticu la rly m isleading was the sta tem en t, “ Lack of V itamin C cause (sic) easy bruising and m ay be another cause of perm anen t goose b am p s” , and “ Vitamin C is a lm ost a specific cure for heat ra sh .” The clinical deficiency of Vitamin C, known as scurvy is m anifested a s gingivitis (infection of the gum s) accom panied by swelling and bleeding, anem ia and p e te c h ia l h e m o r rh a g e s . T h ese
sym ptons as well as excessive b le ed in g an d s u b c u ta n e o u s hem orrhaging in injury and muscle degeneration, app ea r only in severe deficiency sta tes . The connection between heat rash and Vitamin C has never been observed in any nutritional text I have ever en countered.
Originality, is , of course, to be com mended, however, I am unable to accept Ms. K rauss’ creation of a totally new nutrient. Vitamin F. Po lyunsatura ted F a tty Acids, the substances which Ms. K rauss has r e n a m e d , a r e r e q u i r e d in a b a la n c e d d ie t , p a r t i c u l a r l y th e essential linoleic Acid, and do provide a significant source of Vitamin E. But, the te rm Vitamin F is clearly a m isnom er.
As for the B Vitamin complex, e a c h c o m p o n e n t h a s its own biochemical s t ruc tu re and function, as well as deficinecy sym ptons. Vitamin B 12, deficiency, in a mixed diet, is due to a metabolic defect, the inability of the body to produce an intrinsic factor necessary for a b s o rp t io n , not d ie ta r y la ck . Vitamin B 12 deficiency m anifests itself in pernicious anem ia , a disease fatal if not controlled, and m egaloblastic anem ia . The faulty absorption of the V itamin is in no way influenced or im proved by the increased intake of V itamin B 12.
P lease , the next tim e you print a piece which a t tem p ts to expound an y th e o ry r e l a te d to h e a l th , carefully verify the facts. In a nation too often influenced by sensational food fads and false m irac le cures, c larif ication and publication of substan tia ted tru ths a re essential.

I CANT TEECH COMP NO MORE By Phyllis Zagano
D ear Mr. C hairm an: I’ve got this problem with English. You see, I seem to like it a lot. I guess you could say it is g ra m m a r I ’m hung up on. Not g ram m ar with Noam Chomsky’s arrows, or g ram m ar with d iag ram m ed sentences extended over three pages, not even downright All-American formal g ram m ar. Just the kind of g ram m ar that follows most of the conventions most of the tim e and allows everyone to know w hatever it is w e’re talking about.
But the high schools seem to be guarding the inform ation as if it w ere an atomic secret. As a result, I c a n ’t teach freshm an comp without giving what used to be the eighth-grade g ra m m a r course all over again.
When I s ta r ted teaching, seven and a half years ago, I ran into an occasional student who didn’t know his a ste risk from his elbow. “ Kids like this should be in boarding school.” I’d shout. I run into entire classes of them now, and I still think they should be in a boarding school. Then I rem em ber , this is a boarding school, and they’re here.
Thousands of them invade the cam puses each fall, and the absolute worst end up in my classes. I know it only seem s tha t way, but I have spent too many evenings reading that “ the m an in the story was quite incohesive,” while (to the west no doubt) “ the sun was slowly covered by a few clods,” to believe otherwise.
I know that a t several schools, Berkeley included, they’ve had it so bad they’ve started a “ Bonehead E nglish” course, and that a t the University of Houston recently 60 per cent of the freshmen couldn’t pass even the th ird essay they wrote. I know that Bowdoin College d idn’t want to let freshm en in until they could prove the ir writing ability. But why? Why do we even have to have freshm an comp?
W hat’s happening? I’m not even 30 and I must often stop myself from saying “ When I was in high school.......”
'I Can't Teecft Comp No More'
Reprinted From Chronicle of Higher
Education March 1, 1 9 7 6
At the beginning of each sem ester, I ask my students about the contents of their senior English courses. I’ve had answers ranging from “ Introduction to,‘F ilm ” to “Set-Building for T heater” to “ Creative D ram atics .” The only student who rem em bered a course remotely resembling what the over-30 crowd rem em bers as “ G r a m m a r ” a t te n d e d a Catholic high school somewhere north of Syracuse.
While the Modern Language Association put it more delicately when it wrote that “ students a re coming from high school with a far less firm grasp on fundam entals than before-middle class as well as disadvantaged students,” I’m beginning to believe that no one under the age of 19 can write a simple declarative sentence.
Mr. Chairman, I am at the absolute end of my rope. How can I aw ard an A when the best essay includes such phrases as “ In A Visit of Charity the patience in the home were committed because they failed to cope with there day by day activities” and “ In the story, a girl visits two old ladies in an Old Laddies Home” ?
Are they speaking English? American? Long Islandese? I know what the student means when he
writes, “ In this story, loneliness takes place with this m an .” But must I leave it as it is? How can I convince him that he is not using words correctly when he may have received, as I did. an expensively prepared fundraising piece which read in part “On behalf of the Committee. 1 invite your participation in support of a greater xyz Hospital.” I mean, thank you very much, l>ut my participation and I are busy that night.
Can 1 convince a freshman that it is wrong to write “ Walking through the woods, the trees were very p re tty” (and tired, no doubt, carrying all those leaves around all day) when John ('hancellor reads “ The Guitar P layer,” a painting by Vermt'er, was stolen last night by a gang of thieves from a small English m useum .” While 1 assume that the thieves were not under contract to the museum. John, you’re getting away with something I’m trying to convince 26 freshmen is wrong
I’ve read all the official material. Mr. Chairman, and I know that we can blame everything from structural linguistics to tw much “ creativity,” but I will not believe that we cannot stop it.
I coached a young friend preparing for the College Boards recently. He had never heard of a dangling participle. He is 17, he has attended schools in the United States all his life, he has a B average, but he never understood why a sentence with a dangling participle was wrong. He didn’t need an extensive writing program ; he didn’t have a learning problem. He got an explanation, and he learned about the participle.
I guess what I am saying. Mr. ('hairman. is that 1 just don’t have the time or the emotional energy individually to tutor 26 students. I really wish I did. 1 really wish it wasn’t necessary. I really wish I didn’t have to teach freshman comp.
p.s. Thanks for assigning me to research this semester.

Diary of a Nad Freshman-English TeacherSept. 1. Before I can even introduce myself a student
signals m e with frantic a rm movements to ask the question of the decade; “ Do we have to buy the book?”
“ Y es,” I answ er. I am in full control. Ten minutes la ter the Questioner flaps those a rm s again. His d is tress is obvious. “ How much does it cost to drop a course"^” I tell him: “ Very little .” I hope my hope, doesn’t show.
Sept. 10. I use a simple registration form in order to get to know the students. One line reads;SIGN................Half the students in the class reproducedtheir s ignatures. The other half indicated their birth signs. Over a third of the students are Virgos. When I mention this in class the Questioner informs me that Geminis and Virgos are “ tight.” Can I truly be an im partia l scholar in such a class?
Sept. 2 0 .1 am seriously considering the purchase of a red ink pad and a set of rubber stam ps that read:
NOT A SENTENCE “ IT’S” EQUALS “ IT IS”“ ITS” IS POSSESSIVEDANGLING PARTICIPLE.“ I ” B EFO R E “ E ” EXCEPT AFTER “ C”On second thought, I wouldn’t be able to afford the 20
' 1 need. Besides, the stam ps may be too sophisticated. I only need one that says WRONG.
Oct. 5. The Questioner informs me again that 1 am seriously interfering with his “ creative expression.” I know in secret he calls m e “ The Stifler.” I can take it. In fact, I now consider myself morally opposed to creative expression. I can no longer enjoy poetry. I have d ream s of Sylvia Plath and T.S. Eliot verbally s lurring their composition teachers.
Oct. 28. Lecturing on research papers today. I begin to suspect that “ lib ra ry” is an unfamiliar concept. I plan a field tr ip for the im m ediate future.
Oct. 31. Half the class showed up in masks. The lib rar ian is blaming m e and Charles Manson. I may never check out another book. ____
Nov. 4. The Questioner uses class time to tell me a long and painful story about his favorite high school English teacher.
This teacher insisted that all his students use Roget’s Thesaurus when writing essays in order to substitute all one and two-syllable words with longer words whenever possible. The other students nod knowingly. The teacher’s intentions may have been pure. I want to torture him.
Nov. 10. I intend to do a research study on the relationship between menstrual cram ps and essay tests. In males the syndrome is called “shoulder separation.” I tell them that pain truly heightens the testing experience. I quote Hermann Hesse to make my point. If that doesn’t work. I quote Kahlil Gibran.
Nov. 12. One of the students signed her honor pledge with “ love.” I feel terrible about failing her.
Nov. 20. Johnny can ’t write. Newsweek has informed the entire country. I wish 1 knew how they found out. There must be an agent in my class. Thank God, theydidn’t find out that Susie c an ’t write either.....orJoanie. . . . or Henry. . . .
Dec. 1. If I read one more essay on the legalization of marijuana. I ’ll throw up. Note; Always assign topics.
Dec. 14. The Questioner has m astered a one-page essay. His paper is organized, logical, and written in sentences. The cynic in me scream s that he bought it, but I know that those places don’t sell one-page essays. I sleep without d ream s for the first time in weeks. I love
teaching.Dec. 25. The blue books a re piled neatly before me. an
im pressive stack before the slashing red pencil. I don’t want to read them. It’s Christmas. I want to believe.

Imagine an order of 22,000 priests and brothers in 73 countries around the world. (That’s a pretty big family.)
But that’s what the Salesians of St. John Bosco are all about — a large family of community-minded men dedicated to the service of youth. (And no one gets lost.)
In the 1800*8 a chance meeting between a poor priest and a street urchin served to create a movement of such success that it is still growing today. Don Bosco became the priest who brought youth back from the streets — and back to God.
He reasoned that a program of play, learn and pray would make useful citizens of the world. He crowded out evil with reason, religion and kindness in a (what was then unheard of) atmosphere of family spirit.
The ideals of St. John Bosco are still with us today. His work goes on in boys clubs, technical and academic schools, guidance centers, summer cam ps and missions. And his very human approach is very evident in the family spirit of the Salesians. This is the way he wanted it. This is the way it is. The Salesian experience isn’t learned — it's /ived.

If y o u ’ve n e v e r seen Billy Cobham, then other d rum m ers probably look pretty good. You might be watching a drum solo som ewhere, thinking to yourself, •‘This guy’s not bad .” After you’ve seen Cobham, you say, “ Well, this fiuy’s not bad, but he’s no Billy Cobham .”
C obham ’s talent becam e widely l ecognized when he played with the old M ahavishnu O rchestra. When the o r ig in a l m e m b e rs of Mahavishnu broke up, Cobham becam e free to do his own m aterial. Me formed a group and put out some dynam ite a lbum s, notably Spectrum and Crosswinds. He is still putting out dynam ite albums. His peculiar b rand of jazz with heavy em phasis on the drum s (of course) quickly becam e popular am ong M ahavishnu followers and jazz freaks in general.
On Friday , Cobham brought his new band to the Tower Theater for an enjoyable evening of good music. He no longer has the horn p layers that played with him last year, so the sound of his music has changed somewhat. But absolutely tiothing has been lost. George D u k e ’s sp a c e y k e y b o a rd s fit beautifully, and John Scofield’s gu itar work is excellent. Alphonzo J o h n so n , f o rm e r ly of W ea th e r Report, adds a funky touch with his s ty le of b a s s p lay in g . And ( ’o b h am ’s drum m ing is almost fas ter than it is possible to imagine. His hands seem to violate the laws of physics.
The sold-out Tower crowd loved every minute of the concert. Noting the enthusiasm of the audience, ('obham exclaimed, ‘T h is sure beats the Main Point, and 1 love the Main Point.” He la ter rem arked, “ I wish 1 had a bus la rge enough to take all of you with us so that we would always have an audience to play for.” Throughout the show he kept making sim ilar rem arks about how Philly was where it’s at, and how much he loved the way everybody was getting into the music. From what he said it was obvious that his popularity in other parts of the country is not as high as it is in Philadelphia.
I wanted to hear much more of the old stuff from the early albums, but the new m ateria l that was played was good. Most of the songs that Cobham played were fairly new and some will be on the soon r e le a s e d a lb u m s of the o th e r m em bers of the band. The group presented a few tunes from their new album (which should be out som etim e this week), but naturally the old ones got the most applause. The crowd yelled for more when ( ’obham left the stage after playing “ S tra tu s” , from the Spectrum LP. I ’or the encore, they did a new selection written by George Duke, called, “ T ha t’s What She Said,” and the last num ber was a pleasant surprise, “ Crosswinds.” It was done brilliantly with some fantastic drum ming, as with the entire show. Someday soon Cobham will sell out the Spectrum. Ju s t wait.
Electric Light Orchestra at the Spectrum
Feel GoodBy Buzz Cerino
Feelgotxl is a tough band, with as much energy as veteran rockers like (the now defunct) Humble Pie and m a y b e even the Who. Prim arily , the band a re at their best on stage and strive to bring that live sound into the studio. •‘Down by the J e t ty ” (Although well into the stereo age) was pressed mono. “ T h a t’s the way it sounded l)est and when you hear us live, th a t’s how we sound, we do our recordings-live.” Actually, though categorized stereo, “ M alpractice” is mostly mono too!
Dr. Feelgood a re not a nostalgic band in the vein of Sha-na-na, they’re more like modern day Bo Didleys or Buddy Hollys. “ We get com pared to a lot of t>ands. I think J. Geils is probably the closest comparison. They’re working in the sam e kind of thing. They put out a lot of energy on stage. They’re not trying to put out any kind of message, just get off on the energy and th a t’s what w e’re trying to do. 1 think, in a way seeing them encouraged us.”
Well, we all know Philly is a J. Geils kind of town and Dr. Feelgood knew it too. But, they still a re somewhat apprehensive about the Cathedral gig. However, those who ventured to the 7th floor, merely to linger, rooted themselves for the entirely of either or both sets. Their sets may seem very basic. “ We don’t do any kind of solos,” but
the re ’s always room for grade A rock and roll--no frills and just within the realm of controlled energy.
Feelgood’s current American tour has a n o th e r s to p p lan ned for P h i la d e lp h ia , in ab ou t two m onths . If you m issed th e ir first date, don’t dare miss their t r u im p h a n t r e tu rn . Until then , invest in “ M alpractice” -n o doubt it will m ake you feel good.
Dr. Feelgood is the epitome of basic, hard drivin’ rock and roll. In only four years , they’ve risen into the ranks of Columbia’s brilliant young talent, reviving many R&B gem s along the way I
Their debut album, “ Down by the J e t ty ” (United Artist) is available only as an import and probably will r e m a in a s such . A ccord ing to F e e lg o o d ’s lead g u i t a r i s t and prim ary composer, Wilko Johnson, •‘The album (“ D B T J” ) really is the backbone of our live act. Those songs will certainly sometime be on a live album, which could be the album after next.”
With the advent of their first s ta te - s id e a lb u m , “ M alp rac - l i c e ” (C o lu m b ia ) , Dr. Feelgood booked an American tour. Opening in Philadelphia with Pretty Things and Pablo Cruise, at the Scottish Kite Cathedral, they more than im p re s se d the au d ien ce with VVilko’s “Another M an,” “ Back in the Night” , and “ You Shouldn’t Call the Doctor ( If You Can’t Afford the Hills)” , along with ‘oldies’ like •‘Route W)” .

Lloyd gets into the Experience
The Black Music ExperienceBy Lloyd Dickerson
M any, m any lab e ls and categories a re attached to our music; none can cap ture its true, in t r ic a te ly -s im p l is t ic soul a c curately. There a re two kinds of m u s ic ; good, positive , and meaningful chords and harmonies that m ake the listeners aw are of untold opportunities and wonders in the world; or the senseless noise that pollutes and hurts the ea rs and mind.
Music is the universal language. Spiritual freedom is necessary in o rd e r to c o m m u n ic a te th is language. Here at Drexel, a small family of free-spirited brothers and sisters com municate the rhythmic v ib ra t io n s of the u n iv e rsa l language. They a re respectfully known as the BLACK KX- PKRIENCE IN MUSIC,
The BLACK EXPKRIKNCK IN MUSIC originated here when the family felt the urgency for relevant communications. With access to the student organization known as W X D T. the ‘K X PERIEN C E’ began its inherent com mitment of broadcasting the music. Their number was relatively small a t the onset, but like anything else positive, it has progressed.
The BLACK EX PE R IE N C E IN MUSIC b ra n c h e s out into 360
degrees of the total spectrum of BLACK music. Each member of the E X P E R IE N C E ’ translates a phase of the BLACK EX PE R IE N C E ,’ through their culture: music. Along with the lK*st in today’s, yesterday’s and the future's music, messages of community interests a re an integral part of the format.
The listening audience, is for the most part, people of the community who a re dissatisfied with the day in day out exploitation of their culture. The epitome of BLACK music, under every label, has led the way to econom ic freedom now celebrated by various and diverse former minority groups, that invaded these shores to take the land away from the original Americans, who knew nothing about deceit and subterfuge. K W 1) U, a non-profit educational radio station, offers its audience somewhat of an a l te r native from the commercialism found everywhere else. Mopi'fully by lx‘coming spiritually friH>, you will join the audience and ex perience a phase of the BLA(’K EXPER IENC E IN MUSIC.
STAY SPIR ITU A LLY IN TUNED WITH LIFE, NATURE, AND THE BLACK EXPERIENCE.
PEACE!

The Last ColumnBy Harriet Cohen
Due to the almost inconceivable phenomena of graduation, this piece, will be my last cooking column for the Triangle. Recipe development and preparation is truly an enjoyable pasttim e, as is features writing, so the past two years or so of the column have been g rea t fun. Food plays such an integral pa rt in our lives, contributing to both health and recreation, that presenting ideas to the public can be quite a rew arding experience. So for the fun of it, h e re ’s a personal favorite-a high protein, filling entree, not too taxing on the pocketbook, yet full of food flavor.

TLA Preview By Alan Brody
TLA Cinema is showing a presentation of fine films for a very limited time. The collection s ta r ts out with a movie about m any jazz g rea ts which Include Cab Calloway, Duke Ellington, Buddy Rich, Louis A rmstrong and more. Samm y Davis J r . appears in “ Jazz Ball” singing and dancing jazz with his father and uncle. In this cut, he appears very young before he lost one of his eyes in an accident. The Mills Brothers sang with only the aid of a small guitar. Their voices brought out im m itations of a bass guitar, and a trumpet with a mute on it. What a team!
Some of the cuts in “ Jazz Ball” left me wanting to see and hear m ore of that particu lar group. When Peggy Lee sang, the ending of her song was cut off, which m ade m e want to hea r the conclusion and more of her and the bands’ performance. This happened to a lot of other jazz groups as well.
The highlight of the film series is shorts from Max Fleicher, the inventor of Popeye, and Betty Boop. The title of this ra re collection is “ Betty Boop’s Goodies.”
Max Fleicher (1885-1972) was the owner of the world’s first m a jo r an im ated studio in 1919. His first cartoon was “ Koko the Clown.” Other works of his a re “ Gulliver’s T ravels ,” and “ Mr. Bug goes to Town.”
Included in the collection of F le icher’s best works a re “ Riding the Kails,” “ The Old Man on the Mountain,” “ Betty Boop for President. These and other epics a re added to the m any shorts shown by TLA. The music in these films a re played by either Louis Armstrong, or Cab Calloway. Armstrong was brought into “ I’ll be Glad When You’re Dead You Rascal You” visually as well as musically. At tha t tim e period, the 1920’s and 30’s, his music, as well as other black musicians, w as being introduced to the public.
“ Jazz Ball” and “ Betty Boop’s Goodies” a re playing for only four d ay s” from Sat., March 13 through Tues., M arch 16. I recom m end it for any movie buffs, jazz buffs or for m ere pleasure.

The trilogy cen ters around Jason dinAlt, g am b le r ex traord inaire and doer of g rea t deeds. In the firs t of the trilogy, Deathworld. Jason is shanghaied into gam bling and winning th ree billion c red its - an incredible sum for any m an to win, let alone live a f te r winning it. Deciding that any cause worth winning th ree billion cred its for w as w orth investigating. Jason convinces his stubborn benefactors, the inhabitan ts of a small and virtually unknown planet called P y rru s , tha t he should com e to their planet and help them in their “ b a t t le .” It is tow ards this end tha t the three billion c red its w ere won - to supply the P y r ra n s with am m unition and weapons to fight off the p redatory and savage flora and fauna of the ir rebelling planet.
Upon a rr iv a l , Jason finds a planet tha t is tru ly the m ost in hospitable in the universe. It seem s tha t everything th a t lives an d b rea thes on Pyrus bites, stings, poisons, and is generally deadly to m an . Ja son is intrigued, and begins an investigation tha t eventually leads him to the cause of the inhospitability of the planet, and the answ er to the P y r r a n “ w a r” effort But in the process, he m ust fight the P y r ra n s them selves, whose prejudices and deadly capabilities a re so g rea t tha t they a lm ost destroy themselves
In Deathworld 2. Jason is once again shanghaied , this tim e quite unwillingly, by a religious fanatic who dem ands tha t he re tu rn to the civilized planet and s tand tria l for his “ sin s” of gam bling and "chea t ing .” He is tricked into boarding the fan a t ic s ’ ship, and is im m edia te ly jum ped into hyperspace for the long journey to the cen te r of the galaxy. Seeing no hope of escaping the persecution and execution tha t aw aits him on the “ civilized” planet that his cap tor is headed for, he tr ies a desperate last- ditch effort to avoid his untim ely death. He sm ash es the control of the ship, and sends it p lum m eting tow ard the n eares t p lanet, an uncharted and unknown world he has never seen before.
It is on this second deathworld that Ja son faces the perils of a barely above stone-age civilization th a t is full of superstitious “ m a g ic” that is the rem ains of the science tha t the original p ioneers had possessed Surrounded by treachery , intrigue, and death at every turn . Jason battles unbelievable odds just to rem a in alive, and eventually becom es the most valuable and w anted m an on the planet.
In the third novel of the trio. Deathworld 3. Ja so n once again teams up with the P y rran s , this tim e in an a t tem p t to build a new home for the now hom eless P y rran s .

Jason battles the custom s and habits of the bloodthirsty natives in order to win a world of incalculable m inera l w ealth and to bring a sem blance of civiliz a tio n to th e n a t iv e s .
All in all. this trilogy m akes fascinating, fast-paced read ing that never lets up. The charac te riza tion is ex trao rd inary , and the w riting is the best effort I have read yet by H arry H arrison. One of the best triolgies that I have ever read - it rivals the Foundation Trilogy and the Lord of the Rings series.

Be-Bop Deluxe:
DREXEL TRIANGLEMarch 12, 1976-Pige 13
Stars of the Future Here NowBy Ray Penkola
Be-Bop Deluxe. No its not a new dance step, but close. I t ’s the collective nam e of a rising rock group of English musicians who have ju s t kicked off the ir American debut tour, making the ir first stop last Sunday in Atlanta - a tour which brings them tonight for their s ta rr in g ap p ea ran ce a t the Scottish Hite C athedra l here in town.
What the group plays, though, is nothing like “ teeny bopper” music, as the ir title might suggest. During a phone conversation with Bill Nelson, leading force and founder of the group, he com m ented tha t it w as a nam e tha t just went along nicely. He assu red m e that they’re no Bay City Rollers, but tha t they do “ hope that the music would appeal to a s m any people as p o ss ib le w ith o u t b eco m in g too c o m m erc ia l .”
Bill’s m usical ta lent w as first discovered around 1973 by a big record exec at EMI who had obta ined a copy of his solo LP. • 'Northern D re a m s” - an LP which had been privately pressed to the tune of only 200 copies. He liked what he heard and offered Nelson a contrac t a t the very offset. Wanting lime though to reh ea rse his newfound band, Be-Bop Deluxe, a year elapsed before the g roup’s eventual signing to the H arvest label. What resulted w as the ir first recording a ttem pt, “ Axe V ictim ,” which, r e g r e t fu l ly en o u g h , w as n e v e r re leased in A merica., A s t re a m of rough tim es and
changes soon followed for Be-Bop. The band, which included a few of Nelson’s old school buddies, faired a big zero while on tour with C ockney R ebe l. A c o m p le te overhaul in personnel was thusly in o rd e r , a c q u i r in g tw o R ebel m em bers and session d rum m er
Simon Fox. Nelson rem ained at the group’s vital core.
P e r s o n a l i ty con fl ic ts soon developed within the new group, though, with Nelson firing everyone except Fox. It took a series of auditions afterw ards for the pair to locate a compatible bass player in the form of Charlie Tumahai of the Australian band Mississippi.
Bill Nelson’s first music love had always been the guitar. But in 1974 when the trio entered Rockfield Studios to record their next LP. Bill also found himself !iaving to supply the keyboard bits as well. He ad mitted that his playing was very minimal at that point, having only a y e a r ’s experience at the piano. But that recording session did establish the band’s unique identity as en compassing futuristic, space-like envisions rooted within a firm rock base. The LP. appropriately called “ F u tu ra m a ,” was produced by Roy Thomas Baker, who had also lent a helping hand to Queen’s highly polished works. Soon after com pletion of the record, 18 year old S im on C la rk e w as a d d ed on k e y b o a rd s , ro u n d in g out the musical, performing effectiveness of the group.
Building now on that foundation, the group has just released their most impressive recording effort yet. entitled “ Sunburst P’inish.” H ere Nelson ta k e s H e n d r ix ’s searing, com manding guitar style a step further, to skillfully accentuate a diversity of moods. Within each song, in fact, moods and tempos change often and quickly, making for a very interesting, involved listening. Nelson’s vocal delivery of the lyrics is executed with upmost c larity and done at times in a talking-song m anner - owing to his repute as a serious poet as well as rock m u s ic ia n . The m u l t i
k e y b o a rd s of A ndrew C la rk e greatly contribute toward forming a total spacey atm osphere, backed by the steady rock rhythm s of Fox and Tumahai. The opening number, ‘F a i r E x c h a n g e ," h a s been
receiving much FM airplay lately, hopefu lly r e a c h in g a lis ten in g public who will soon latch on to this inventive rock find.

Songwriting and performing are not the only group aspects which a re given careful attention The cover artwork of their new album, for exam ple, is an outgrowth of one of Nelson’s ideas intertwined with one facet of the group’s live act. In the past the band started their perform ance with each m em ber appearing in c lear, long tubes. These were really simulations of

The band gets into a boggie jam in the tune, “ Like an Old Blues.” All of the compositions, though, have that ultra-modernistic twist to them, both in lyrical and musical content.
the life preserving system s seen in the old science fiction movies, in which the person looked frozen stiff. According to Bill, “ the idea of the cover was to have a silhouette on it - a figure holding a burning guitar - and we just combined it with the tubes ... when people saw the stage act, they would relate to the cover of the album. So you had a con

CALL: (215) CA 4 -5 1 4 6
By Tom MascioliIt is so incredible how in the space of five seconds, a d ream basketball
season can be ruined. On Saturday afternoon Jan u a ry 24, 1976, those five ticks of the clock occurred. A stolen Drexel inbound pass and a resulting lay-up by H ofstra’s John Irving virtually put an end to the Drexel basketball season tha t potentially could have put the university on the national map.
Instead of a loss that would have elim inated Hofstra from the ECC playoffs, the Flying Dutchmen will play in the first round of the NCAA Division I tournam ent tomorrow. There is no reason why Drexel could not be in the sam e situation. L et’s look at the six squads in the ECC playoffs that a lready com peted for the one NCAA bid - St. Jo e ’s, Temple, Hofstra, Lafayette, Rider and Bucknell. Now substitu te Drexel for Hofstra and give the Dragons a bye to the sem ifinals (since a 4-1 record would have qualfied fo first place in the division) and the chances suddenly becom e good that the Dragons could be on the road to Providence, Rhode Island.
Can one im agine the possibilities in such an ach ievem ent? D rexel’s nam e would appear on every sports page in the country in the bracket pairings for the final 32 team tourney. Ju s t think what tha t would do to help recruiting just in the Philadelphia a rea alone! Drexel would also have an easier tim e in upgrading its basketball schedule because the re is always an attrac tion to an NCAA tourney prospect. Consequently, this upgrade in schedule would help high school recruiting even more.
However, it is tim e for this repor te r to com e down to reality . Drexel did not beat Hofstra, they did not m ake the ECC playoffs, they did not qualify for the NCAA’s and all of the juicy fringe benefits did not and will not occur. Drexel still cannot schedule a Penn or a Villanova because a Drexel victory can only hurt the ir p rogram s and help D rexel’s.
Pe rhaps the person who is most disappointed is Ray H aesler. At the mention of his good season, he feels tha t it w as not good enough. As a coach he knew of the implications of a Drexel ECC championship, and believe me, he probably has had countless n igh tm ares reliving the H ofstra gam e.
H aesler has been the aim of much critic ism in the last five years , more negative than positive. In his early seasons, he has lost m any gam es tha t he and others have felt Drexel should have won. I am su re he knows tha t he has m ade m istakes both on and off the court in the handling of p layers. But then again , even the owners of any new sports franchise expect to lose money in the first few years before they profit from the organization. When it all com es out in the wash, here is what Ray H aesler has accomplished.
In a city with five established big ball schools and two or th ree prim e sm all colleges, team s, he had brought a nothing university in m odern
basketball to a s ta tu s of c lea r respectab ili ty in a period of five yearsTo add to this accom plishm ent, he did it a s a new and young college
coach. H aesler w as not established before he took the Drexel job. He had never before been a college head coach. Don’t forget, H arry Litwack. and Jack K raft m ay be noted basketball w izards, now, but w hat were they after five y ea rs of coaching.
Finally, a f te r a g rea t deal of h a rd work, H aesler and his assistants have given the university quality basketball. He has given the generally apathetic Drexel s tudent som ething to becom e en thused about. A Drexel gym w as filled for the first t im e in a long t im e this y e a r against Textile, and it would have happened again if the T em ple hom e gam e could havt possibly been scheduled at home instead of the P a le s tra .
Haesler has also pulled off som e am azing recru iting miracles Hob Stephens has proven to be one of the best if not the best freshm an in the city a rea . At 6-7 he plays like 6-11 and has given the D ragons long needed stability in the middle. More rem ark ab le is the acquisition of 6-0 guard. Joe Gore, a s a tran sfe r from Utah. Gore is a leg itim ate blue-chipper from G ratz high school, a superb penetra ting gu a rd as well as an outside shooter. He is now quietly waiting to m eet “ E m the G em ” in what should be a classic confrontation next year.
Coach H aesler and a ss is tan t F ee have also done m uch to improve the
perfo rm ance of som e of the t e a m ’s p layers this season. Tony Weldon has been taught the proper form in shooting a ju m p shot and has gained the confidence to sink it. Weldon has also been m otiv iated to turn from the lam b of 1975 to the tiger of 1976 with his aggressive boardplay. Ray James im provem ent has been phenom inal. To com plim ent his quickness, Ray has learned to handle the ball be tter , play s tronger defense, and especially to pop the till with consistent accu racy from within 18 feet.
Despite a disappointing finish this past season. Drexel University’s fu ture in basketball is bright, it is a winning fu ture and with the recruitment of a couple of good freshm en in the works to replace Kernan and Romanczuk, Drexel basketball has an exciting future.
However, the basketball fu tures for Doug Romanczuk and Mike Kernan a re over. They will never be p a r t of an ECC cham pionship or an NCAA bid. Yet if Drexel should ever reach high basketball acclaim , they can look back ten, fifteen, or m aybe twenty years from now and be proud of the fact that they w ere the hard-working men who s ta r ted it all off. A tribute to them.
As one looks ahead to next year , the p ressu re is on Ray Haesler and Co to play consistent, winning basketball. I think they will be ready for the challenge.

L am bda Chi Wing I.F. T itle
By Rick Pontin
Well, the IF Basketball season finally ends; this tim e with a new champion. Lam bda Chi defeated Sigma Pi by one to win the title, 43- 42. Sig Pi was hurt in the title gam e when Drew Stopperand Tom Sharp fouled out. Rich Holmes (22) and Mike Kahil (9) played outstanding ball to lead L am bda Chi.
This proved to be an interesting yea r in IF Ball. T here w ere two fresh faces in the playoffs this season, TKE and Pi Kap. Some of the last yea rs powers (Pi Lam and Theta Chi) did not have successful seasons, and Apple Pi ap pears to be em erg ing as the te am of the future.
Throughout the season, I have had the opportunity to see m any gam es and have seen some team s play as m any as six times. What follows is this w r i te r ’s All-league team. It is not necessarily w hat the fra tern ities will pick, but should be a decent indication. I tr ied to evaluate how the p layer helped his team and how he com pared with players around the league. Playoffs were not taken into account, and this is for regu la r season play only.

Hiesler hlks of FutureInterview of coach Ray Haesler by the Triangle sports staffer Kevin
1- unnion
Triangle: CMch, now lhal Drexel has turned the corner in big lim e basketball what does the future hold’’
Haesler: Your question needs analyzing. We haven't achieved a big time
basketball turning point . This past year, the Drexel team beat team s on a tough schedule that Drexel had never previously beaten. T ha t’s all, ^ r i o d . When you talk big time you must talk a total com m itm ent from the school & athletic administration, the students and alumni Example- Notre Dame draw s about 10.000 per home game. 5,000 students purchase pre-season reserved seats for the entire year. Drexel students only come in force when we play a local big five school or Textile when they a re having a good year. Granted, we had better a t tendance at our gam es this year but for the type of winning year it was, every gam e should have been a sell out no m a tte r who the opponent. Drexel students don’t have to pay to see us at home yet our P alestra gam es draw more interest from our students where they must pay to see us play. We only have a hard core of about 200 students who followed us with any consistency at home gam es all year. I congratulate them and feel bad that we can ’t get total student commitment. Look, I’m not grinding an axe it’s just that I ha te to see students pay a high activities fee and not a t tend free home gam es but pay double to see us play at the Palestra . You’re cheating yourselves! Talking about total commitment means recruiting basketball players only and not student-athletes. It means keeping any grea t basketball player in school, no m a tte r what. That m eans a total faculty commitment. Big time means an active alumni com m itm ent, and national recruiting of quality student athletes. It m eans scheduling team s that require traveling distances and flying to a rea s never before traveled to. Drexel is not ready financially for these facts. Actually if we can continue to be successful in our league (East Coast Conference) and eventually win the Conference and earn a bid to the N.C.A.A. tourney then perhaps we can em erge into a bigger level of competition. Fo r one thing that was our goal this past year. Getting a first round N.C.A.A. qualifying berth means at least $10,000 dollars for Drexel (N.C.A.A. guarantee) plus the unmeasured dollars & cents publicity. We w eren’t that far away from it this year - just perhaps an away played home gam e and a sprained ankle! I guess tha t’s a long winded answ er to your question but the facts a re true and th a t’s the most honest way to break down and answ er vour question.
T riang le : Wow - you really answ ered a few other questions I was going to
ask you. OK. Lets take a specific look at your goal to win and get an NCAA Berth by winning the East Coast Conference. Can you do it next year?
H aesler: Most people don’t realize that at Drexel the pressure to win in basketball is g reat. Now that we have accomplished parity in our league this past year the simple nature of your question suggests that people will expect us to win next year. T here’s going to be a lot of p ressu re on our program next year after what we accomplished this year. The thing that bothers me is that we have no seniors so the young players next year will have to work very hard this sum m er to improve all skills and satisfy what people will be expecting from them next year.
Triangle: What about this y e a r ’s recruiting so far?Haesler: Right now my assistant Mike Fee and I a re totally engrossed in
recruiting the best possible student-athlete. We as of yet a re in fairly tight with some top players but the competition is very keen with the Big Five, A.C.C. and other top schools interested in the sam e players. Right now we don’t have anyone signed or committed. We’re recruiting only forwards and big men.
Triangle: Then you think you a re fairly well off at th e ^ u a rd positions?Haesler: Yes, Ray Ja m e s is constantly improving and as soon as he gets
his ballhandling down to perfection he will be a super guard. Joe Conahan has proven he can play and Joe Gore, although untested so far at Drexel, did very well two years ago as a freshman at Utah. Tom Betley is a good swing guard who is steadily improving his handling and gives us good size as a 2nd guard. Brian O’Loughlin was the J.V. M.V.P. and is a great guard in all areas.
T riangle: What about the J.V. team supplementing next y e a r ’s varsity?Haesler: A good question th a t’s difficult t answer. We need forwards and
centers. Bill Ryan is big & strong and wants to attend basketball cam p all sum m er to contribute next year. Bill does have potential with his strength and shooting ability but must improve his overall quickness and sense of doing the right thing on the court. If Bill comes in and gets us ten rebounds and five points per gam e next year and plays steady in o ther phases of the gam e he could m ake a substantial contribution from the J.V. team. Brian O’Loughlin is as steady as they come in the back-
Coaches Fee (left) and Haesler (right) in pensive mood.
court and gives us great depth there. The other players I observed on this years J.V. a re real question m arks and only time and a g reat deal of overall improvement and hard work this sum m er will determine how they will contribute, if at all, next year.
Triangle; Coach, if you had one wish for your program - what would It be? Haesler: T h a t’s the easiest question to answer that you’ve asked. A player
with the spirit, aggressiveness, and quickness of Doug Romanczuk. the brick wall strength of Doug White and the touch of Mike Kernan!

has improved phenomenally. The male varsity players have ex perienced a super season. Also, the female varsity and junior varsity have experienced an extraord inary season. The reason for this type of results is due to the p layers and coach. Despite the fact, the girls have their defects individually, as a team they operate elegantly. Isn’t this ra the r ir regu la r and ironic? No, not re a l ly . O ur f e m a le dragonettes really have one main ingredient that m akes them function well as a team. That is w arm th and jubilee in the ir hearts.
Lee Ann Kleinfelder, a 5-6 guard, is a play action type guard . She recounds, s ta r ts situations that usually result to a field goal for Drexel. Her high arcing jum p shot is difficult to block, however, it gives Lee Ann tim e to follow up the shot if i t ’s missed. Defensively, Lee Ann really in tim idates her opponent by really playing tough when sh e ’s challenged.
Dottie Fliss, Lorraine Byrant and Debbie Lindsey, w ere all working out Tues., March 8. So what you m igh t d e c la re . To m e , th is illustrates that Dottie Fliss has accepted the challenge of im p ro v in g h e r c o n s is te n c y in rebouding at both ends of the floor. In s te a d of ju s t a c c e p t in g my criticism , Dottie is literally saying, “ O.K.. . .Mr. Conner, you want a p e r s i s t e n t re b o u n d e r , G re a t C easa r’s Ghost, I ’ll be the best rebt)under e v e r !” Beverly Jones, Colleen Clancy, and Mary Harvey have also s ta r ted working out for next season. Ladies and gentlemen, these type of people a re the real competitors! Maybe they have no tions of p o ss ib ly b e ing u n defeated next season Possibly they may have the notion of scoring 80 pt)ints per gam e. Whatever their goals may be, to me, they all have illustrated. “ If this team is to drastically astonish society, it’s njy obligation to be re a d y ! ’’
Feb, 26, Drexel completed their season at LaSalle, In the first half,
LaSalle w as off and zooming. They were allowing Drexel one shot and really fast-breaking. Coach H aas, called a time-out, pulled her troops together. Proceeding the tim e out, Drexel scored 9 unansw ered points. T h en L a S a lle s t a r t e d c r e a t in g turnovers. A time-out was called by LaSalle. Proceeding the time-out LaSalle resum ed control of the g a m e . One d e fe n isv e e r r o r , basically was demolishing D rexel’s chances of reason decrasing their deficit. . A LaSalle guard , who I believe w as built in rad a r , c leared herself on the baseine and hit nothing but twines. She had no defensive ha rassm en t to worry about, LaSalle’s defense was forcing Drexel’s offensive outside. F rom this a rea , the fluidity of Drexel offense was disturbed. Late in the first half, M ary Harvey got into foul trouble and was benched. At the end of the first half, Drexel17, LaSalle 32.
At the beginning of the second half, it appeared Drexel was in the process of m aking a d ram atic comeback. Drexel had hit the ir first two shots and LaSalle had done just the opposite. Then suddenly, Drexel nose dived into a 2 minute drippell and LaSalle really went to work. In th is t im e p e r io d , D rexe l w as allowed just one shot. LaSalle had a 20 point lead. Suddenly, Donna Kirby really began crashing and sm ashing the offensive boards. In one series on offensive, she had 6 c o n se c u t iv e o ffen s iv e reb o u n d s ! H o w ev er , d e s p i te D o n n a ’s c i r a c u lo u s o ffen s iv e reb o u d in g , D rexe l n e v e r w as c a p a b le of decreasing their 20 point deficit to c rea te any th rea t for LaSalle. The final score was Drexel 48, LaSalle 66. Donna Kirby had 11 offensive rebounds and 8 (defensive rebounds.
