Space To Fit, One Last TimeThat First Kiss.The u mbilical cordcannot be refastenedand life flow through itagain.Our tears never totallydry.Our first kiss is now a ghost,haunting our mouths as theyfade towardoblivion. Richard Brautigan

It seemed four years ago that that first kiss, haunting meeven then, was only th e beginning of a relationship with a col-lege which would go on and on and on. Looking at a blanktranscript with visions of an unreachable 120 credits stillahead to tackle and to pay for, I imagined my college yearswould inch by in slow motion while I would be conscious ofevery lingering second. Not so.That first kiss is now a gho st, haunting m e even more. As itfades toward oblivion, its original impression fades onlyslightly. I still remember the fright, the excitement, the transi-tion ... from high school to here ... now from here to whoknows where?i^Brautigan knows so well the symbolic import of the um-bilical cord. Yes, we are all fastened, whether we choose toadmit it or not, to this maternal ediface known as M ercyhurstCollege. She put life into us, she fed us with a banquet ofknowledge and nourished us with experiences, ethics, andjoy. As our growth accelerated and we sometimes!foundourselves regretting th at first kiss, she comforted us with herrare bra nd of familiarity an d love that can be discovered onlywithin her gates. And now as the time draws near for the um-bilical cord to be severed, she prepares us for a different kindof survival. We will be on our own.

Our tears never totally dry. They are there, remainingdamp on our face, to remind us that she will always be there,standing proud and strong, committed to molding the in-tellect and character of many after us.Just as everything has an ending a nd many of us will soondraw our last ^breath through that lifeline tying us to Mer-cyhurst College, so does everything have a beginning and amiddle . It is within their realms that we meet people who wiPchange our lives forever and we learn concepts that will makeour lives fuller and more meaningful.The umbilical cord does not have to be refastened so lifecan flow through it again. We can remember how it gave uslife. We can never forget.

Time Ticks FastBy Scott MaxwellDeciding to attend college was amajor concern of mine as it is foralmost every high school student,I became aware of MercyhurstCollege through a* guidancecounselor. Being interested in

hotel management, Mr. Smith,the guidance counselor, directedme toward three schools: Cornell,Pe nn | State, and Mercyhurst.From that point on, the clockbegan to tick and is still tickingtoday. ... rThe elimination of Cornell andPenn State was not easy. Finally itboiled down to where Cornell wastoo big and Penn State didn't of-fer the exact program I wanted topursue. So look out, Mercyhurst!After an informational inter-view with John Gable, formerHRM instructor, m y interest grewintensely fond of the *Hurst. I ap-plied and was accepted at thebeginning of my senior year. Thiswas a major stepping stone. The

clock started to tick faster.Every so often mail would cometo secure another step in the pro-cess of preparation. Housingdeposits, letters from the HRMA,Crew coach, and student govern-ment are examples of comm unica-tion between the school andmyself during this time. SleepingBag Weekend and summer orien-tation also served as excellentsteps in preparation for my col-lege career. These weekends af-forded me the opportunity tomeet students and experience ataste of college life. In fact, someof the people I met during thesetimes are some of my closestfriends at the present time.'By this time, the clock was tick-ing out of control and Septemberapproached faster than a rocket.*jPersonally, I felt secure aboutcoming to Mercyhurst. It seemedlike the right avenue to take.Luckily, my parents also feltsecure and had no intentions of

stopping me from attending col-lege. Little did I know tha t aheadfor me was a year of excitement,responsibility, hard work 'andpure enjoyment.I look back at my first year withsatisfaction, which gives memotivation to continue my educa-tion at Mercyhurst. I realize thegreat accomplishments achieved.Examples are endless.'When most colleges a re willingto accept any students to keepenrollment high, Mercyhurst isturning down student applicants.This is a very positive clue to show

Scott M axwellthat Mercyhurst provides a quali-ty education that is in demand.Associations on campus arevery efficient and well organized.MSG, The Merciad, and HRMAare prime examples. Students inthese organizations pool theirtalent to produce the finest qualityand the best results.-Other accomplishments includethe renovation of the Student

Union, the 'new phone system,computerization, and the acquir-ing of a new building for the ex-pansion of the college. *vEntertainment also was visibleat Mercyhurst." David Brennergave a grand performance in theCampus Center. Four of ourdepartments displayed their talentat the Warner Theatre. Studentsalso entertained themselves. Thespirit contest, sponsored by theHousing and Safety Department,is an example of school spirit andcreativity.Everything at Mercyhurst is notall enjoyable, but when studentsencounter hurdles they handlethem well. The dispute betweenlighting the tower and closing thelibrary early was settled rational-ly. We, (the Mercyhurst com-munity), survived a blackout.Some residents even survived thethreat of the boogie-man onHalloween night.All these activities and ac-complishments are exciting : andgreat. But there were times duringthe past year which were unplea-s a n t , I l l n e s s , a p a t h y ,homesickness, and depression allcontribute to a bad side. But thesesituations are expected and thebetter one handles these problemsthe better he or she grows as aperson.Personally, I feel I am gaining awell-rounded, quality educationat Mercyhurst. I have also ex-perienced new encounters. Go-cart racing, being elected treasurerof the HRMA, and being involvedin activities, all contributed to myfreshman year.I believe the school mo tto sumsup my whole purpose of \beinghere.

the Opportunity!!! Because at * *n %wpoint, the clock is ticking outcontrol. Somewhere betweSeptember and May, time vanished and one quarter of college career is already ovesincerely cherish every mom entthe past year. It is a contingrowing pattern for me as wellfor the college. I am proud to

"Weeds" To MakeWorld Premiere TonightTonight's performance of"Weeds" will be the climax of anadventure that began forPlaywright Ed Graczyk almosttwenty years ago. "It was in the mid-six ties thatGraczyk staged his production of"American Blues" at the EriePlayhouse in Wesleyville. It wasthis production that stimulatedGraczyk's interest in writingplays. Up to that time he had beena very successful and gifteddesigner* working for a number ofmajor theatres around thecountry.Like the playwright in"Weeds"]Graczyk was stronglyin f luenced by Tennes s eeWilliams. For many years, theyboth shared t the same literary

agent, Audry Woods.Unlike the fictional playwright,Graczyk's plays have been quitesuccessful, winning a number ofmajor awards for him. His playsfor young people are produced allover the world. "Come Back ToThe 5 & Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jim-my Dean" was picked as one ofthe ten best plays produced out-side of New York City. The filmversion of the play won the bestscreenplay for Graczyk at theBelgium International FilmFestival.'Graczyk has been in residencehere at Mercy hurst since Tuesday.He will remain in Erie into nextweek when he will give a talk an dconduc t a wor ks ho p fo rplaywrights on campus.

The show's., star, Anne GeeByrd has been living on campussince her arrival on the 28th ofApril. She will conduct aworkshop on Tuesday for actorsinterested in learning ab out life asa working actor in the .theatre,and the television industry.Tonight's performance of"Wee ds" will be the only perfor-mance that offers the dinnertheatre option. Tonight's dinnertheatre is being catered by theMercyhurst Top-of-The-HillClub. *1The play will play six perfor-mances: tonight, Saturday, Sun-day, Thursday, Friday, and Satur-day. All performances begin at8:30 except for the SundayMatinee which will begin at 2:30.Tickets may j be reserved byphoning the box-office, extension253. For calls made from phonesoutside the Mercyhurs tphonesystem, the number is 825-0293.Mercyhurst Voice StudentPlaces Second In CompetitionNot everyone has the ability toenter a competition and win. Yet,Arthur Martone did just that.Martone, a junior voice major,placed second in a music competi-tion sponsored by the Erie MusicTeachers Association and wonS8S0 for his effor ts^, ^ ^IThis competition differed fromother music co mpetitions,, Mar-tone said. Instrumentalist andvocalist entrants were competingagainst one another instead of inspecific categories.In January, Chiarelli advisedMartone to enter the competition.Martone then took- it uponhimself to follow his instructor'sadvice. V.Martone prepared 40 minutesof music, but was unaware of theselections he would be required toperform at the concert. The selec-tion, Martone explained, wasmade by the judges.At the competition, Martonesang seven of the 15 songs he

rehearsed for a month.In return, he not only won someextra money for his Mercyhursteducation, but he said, "I receiv-ed the experience of competing."Although Martone '. was suc-cessful at his first music competi-tion, he does noU seejhimselfentering other competitioTis in thefuture. Rather, he wants to spendthe time preparing and practicingfor .his acceptance to graduateschool.

At this time, Martone is rehear-sing for his junior recital, whichwill be held Sunday at 3:00 p.m.in Zurn Recital Hall.Leslie Curtis will also be perfor-ming her junior recital on thisdate.Martone and th e two other win-ners of the music competition willbe performing their selections onWednesday, June 1 at 8 p.m., atthe First Unitarian Church.

Mercyhurstgridder Rich Passerotti has signeda contract with the NFL'sCleveland Browns.Well, Passerotti isn't the onlyindividual in the Laker footballprogram taking steps up theperverbial ladder.I'm not quite sure where tostart, so I'll start at the top withHead Coach Tony DeMeo.DeMeo has put together anunbelievable schedule K for thethird year Laker program.The 1983*84 slate includes twoTop-Ten Division UII teams,Frostburg State and the Universi-ty of Dayton, and a nationallyranked Division II Edinborosquad.There aren't any pushoverschools in this year's line-up.The Lakers open the fall cam-paign on the road for three con-secutive weekends. The teambegins play on September 10against Niagara University beforetraveling to John Carroll Univer-sity *and St. Francis College ofPennsylvania. .'Mercyhurst is bringing fourquality football squads to Eriethis season. These collegiategames should draw large crowds.Coach DeMeo has managed toschedule Frostburg State, BuffaloState, Duquesne University,* andthe University of Dayton to bringtheir acts to Erie |Vet^ransStadium. 'The Duquesne contest createsanother first for the 'Hurst. Thisgame will be played at night! TheLakers will play in their initialnighttime contest Saturday, Oc-tober 29.'Besides a varsity schedule,DeM eo has also compiled the firstfull junior varsity season . *The JV squad will play a sixgame schedule, three of which willbe played here at the 'Hurst. Thetwo schedules are printed, in full,below. *But, an improved and tougherschedule doesn't win games orearn a national championship,players do.And, if off-season training isany indication, our players should

win games and continue to movetowards the goal of becoming na-tional champs. |The Lakers have been workinghard in the weight room preparingfor their rugged 1983 campaign.The leader of the 'Hurst grid-ders in the weight room is Meadville strongman Mike Hanes.Hanes, a sophomore noseguard, has bench pressed 420pounds, squatted 465 pounds fivetimes and power cleaned 260pounds five times. -! Former Kiski High School stan-dout Don Gibbon came in seeondin J the bench press with a 390pound lift while Dave Scarsellafinished second in the squats with450 pounds.According to the coachingstaff, the most improved liftersare Darren Blackwell and MikeRoseberry. Blackwell has added100 lbs. to his bench press totalwhile former Ft. LeBoeuf stan-dout, Roseberry, had a 75 poundincrease.jSo, as you can imagine, thecoaches and players are anxiouslyawaiting the start of the newseason already. ?Let me add that I am beginningto think about next year, too. Ihope all this build-up is worth it I think it will be.
