At a meeting held last night, the
Inter-fraternity Association’s
(IFA) President’s Council heard
Sigma Pi’s appeal of the IFA
Judicial Board’s decision to
revoke Sigma Pi’s social, athletic,
and pledge privileges. These
sanctions were imposed by the
board after Sigma Pi allegedly
provoked a fight with Delta
Sigma Phi.
The Judicial Board ruling
revoked the social and athletic
privileges of Sigma Pi until
Spring term and pledge privileges
for this term. Delta Sigma Phi
also received social suspension
until the fifth week of Winter
term.
The charges and the penalties
were valid as of Thursday,
November 13. After the Presi­
dent’s Council meeting last night,
attendees referred all inquiries to
IFA representative Darren Tapp.
Tapp was unavailable for
comment.
According to Delta Sigma Phi
president, Harry Buhl, on Satur­
day, October 24, the night when
clocks were turned back one hour
to reflect Standard Time, Delta
Sigma Phi brothers decided to
close their beer taps at 1:00 a.m.
Claiming that it was not really
2:00 a.m. due to the change in
time, numerous guests resisted
the closing of the taps. To avoid
potential conflicts. Delta Sigma
Phi brothers escorted guests out
of the house.
In the process of clearing the
house, a Delta Sigma Phi brother
and a guest engaged in a conflict
and were later treated at
Presbyterian Hospital for injuries
caused by the fight. Philadelphia
police officers were summon^ to
the site of the altercation,
although no arrests were made.
While the fight involved
brothers of Delta Sigma Phi and
at least two other fraternities, on­
ly Sigma Pi was named with
Delta Sigma Phi in the complaint
made to the IFA Judicial Board.
Sigma Pi brother Jude Brown
claimed that the fight was the
result of a scuffle and that no one
is sure who started the conflict.
Brown said that the appeal was
necessary because all of the facts
concerning the evening’s events
were not available when the
board’s ruling was made.
Delta Sigma Phi has not ap­
pealed the IFA ruling. According
to Buhl, “ It was our house and
our
responsibility.”
Buhl, however, claimed that “ we
did not fight back. Our entire
desire was to end the party and
clear every one out [of the
house].”

Savchak will remain as an ac­
tive member of Faculty Council
as representative of the College of
Business and Administration.
Council members stressed that
Savchak will continue to provide
leadership and direction.
“ This was no rejection of Sav­
chak,” claimed Dr. Vivien
Thweatt, a newly elected member
of the council. “ There is a ge­
nuine appreciation for what he
has done and what he has stood
for; for his services to the
students, the faculty and this
university.”
Dr. Charles Morscheck,
Recording Secretary for the
Faculty Council,
echoed
Thweatt’s sentiments.
“ This sends the message to the
university and the general public
that the faculty is ready to move

Dr. Jacqueline C. Mancall,
associate professor in the College
of Information Sciences, was
elected as president of Faculty
Council by a vote of 10 to 7 at the
Council’s last meeting, Tuesday,
November 10.
Mancall replaces Dr. John Sav­
chak, who has been involved with
Faculty Council for fifteen years
and president for many of those
years.
Numerous Faculty Council
members stressed that Mancall’s
election was not a rejection of the
leadership Savchak has provided.
Rather, they believed that it was
a sign of the Faculty’s readiness
to move ahead and meet the
challenges facing the University.
Commencement Changes
Civic C enter bound?
by M ark Davidson
Triangle Staff W riter
In ’86 and ’87, the University
adopted a four ceremony com­
mencement procedure (gradua­
tion by academic college) to im­
prove crowd control and allow
seniors to receive their diplomas
individually. However, these ad­
vantages were offset by loss of
class unity and the difficulty in ar­
ranging for four major comS e e t h e S e n i o r C la s s
C o m m en cem en t S u rvey
lo c a te d o n P a g e 5 .
mencement ^pealwrs.
The recent changes in the
University Administration have
once again brought these issues to
the forefront. Primarily, the loca­
tion of the 1988 Commencement
Ceremony is being currently
discussed. Representatives of the
senior class have been in negotia­
tions with administration officials
to bring the ceremcr.y back to the
Civic Center.
Joe Lanza, Vice-President of
the Senior Class, noted the advan­
tages to having the cereomny at
the Civic Center, ’’The quality of
the single commencement
speaker will be better, theater
style seating for family and
guests, air conditioning and bet­
ter acoustics.” He continued,
’’The problem is that the
timetable to make this choice is
shrinking rapidly, and if the deci­
sion and subsequent arrange­
ments to move the ceremony are
not made soon, our opportunity
will be lost.”
In order to guage the reaction
of the senior class, all seniors are
asked to fill out the survey located
on page 6 of this week’s Triangle
and return it to the locations listed
on the survey. In addition to giv­
ing a preference on the location
of the ceremony, the survey asks
questions dealing with com­
mencement speakers, senior class
trip, t-shirts, ect.
into the future,” Morscheck said.
Dr. Mancall is highly regard­
ed by the other members of coun­
cil. Morscheck described her as
a “ wise moderate” who has earn­
ed the respect of all of the
members of Faculty Council.
Also elected to Faculty Coun­
cil were Dr, James Friend, of the
College of Science, to the posi­
tion of University Chairman, and
Dr. Tom Hindelang, of the Col­
lege of Business and Administra­
tion, to the position of Recording
Secretary. Both Friend and
Hindelang ran unopposed.
Morscheck declined to run for reelection as Recording Secretary.
The Drexel Players will be appearing in the mystery drama Rashomon, written

The Drexel University
Wellness Committee is working
with The American Cancer
Society in sponsoring The Great
American Smokeout on campus
next Thursday, November I9th.
This year marks the 11th annual
Smokeout celebration.
The event helps to encourage
smokers to test their willpower by
giving up smoking for just one
day.
“ We hope everyone will par­
ticipate,” said Jane Stellwagen,
Associate Dean of Students. “ If
you’re not a smoker, or have
already quit, you can ‘adopt’ a
friend and help them get through
the day.”
It all begins on December
f lN 4 l t% 4 H § C |t E [ l l l
-
The American Cancer Society
suggests these “ Quit Tips” for
the Smokeout day.
—Throw out all cigarettes. Clean
out ashtrays and hide lighters in
your home, office and car.
—When the urge to smoke hits
you, take a deep breath — hold
it and then release it very slow­
ly. This will simulate the
rhythmic breaths of smoking.
—Exercise to help relieve
tension.
—When tempted to reach for a
cigarette, think of a negative im­
age about smoking.
—Reward
yourself
with
substitutes such as gum, popcorn,
or candy.
—Eat three or more small meals

You may have seen signs
around campus recently that men­
tion ISHM. ISHM stands for the
International Society for Hybrid
Microelectronics, which is a
design-oriented society for elec­
trical engineering students. Our
chapter at Drexel University is
composed of enthusiastic students
who hope to gain valuable ex­
perience in the design, fabrica­
tion, and sale of a chapter spon­
sored project.
ISHM has discussed various
ideas for a project to be com­
pleted before the end of this year.
One of our ideas is to design some
type of electronic button that will
flash a message. The purposes of
having a chapter project are to
gain valuable experience in plan­
ning and completing a design, and
to raise money for equipment
costs and future field trips. Since
we have not committed to any
project yet, we welcome all sug­
gestions from members and non­
members.
If you are interested in becom­
ing a member, the only require­
ment for joining our chapter is
that a student must have taken or
will take a course in microelec­
tronics, or has had experience in
this area on co-op. All electrical
engineering students are qualified
since all are required to take Elec­
tronics I and II in the junior year.
Applications are available in the
E le c tric a l
and
C o m p u ter
Engineering office in 7-411; the
membership fee is $5 per year.
Our ISHM chapter meets once
every two weeks on Thursday at
3 p.m. in room 7-308.
Our chapter officers are the
following: President- Greg Paler­
mo, Vice President - Patty
Y ah n er, T re a su re r - Pete
Snowden, Secretary - Marci
Smith, and Faculty Advisor - Dr.
K. Scoles. Messages may be left
for executive council officers in
room 7-502, 7-518 (Dr. Scoles’
office), or on the ISHM bulletin
board outside o f room 7-502.
In addition to our chapter pro­
ject, we will be holding a student
open-house, a student-faculty
forum, and fundraisers. The stu­
dent open-house is a tour of the
hybrid m icro electron ics lab
(7-502) and the CAD room
(7-404). It is scheduled for
W ednesday, November 18th,
from 11 a.m . until 4 p.m ., and
will be conducted by ISHM
members. Each tour group will
run about half an hour; the first
20 minutes will be for showing
the facility, and the last 10
minutes will be for answering
questions. The student-faculty
forum, to be scheduled, will be
an informal question and answe
session for underclassmen wh«
•would like to inquire about thi
EE curriculum, the senior desigi
projects, and the research beinj
conducted by faculty at Drexel
Some of our other chapter ac
tivities for the year include gues
speakers, field trips, and com
pany tours. Through our mam
activities, students will have th<
opportunity make contacts witi
people in industry that could leac
to co-op or permanent job offers
Members and non-m ember
are welcome to all of our chaptei
meetings; the dates will b(
posted. Our faculty advisor am
our officers have applications fo)
memberships.

home which makes you feel hap­
py. “ Good stressors make you
grow if you handle them w ell.”
’ Pulley said.
Some examples of bad stressors
are a death of a family member,
loss of a job and a stolen car. Lx)Sing one’s spouse and pregnancy
are the two events that generate
the highest amount of stress.
“ The bottom line o f stress,”
Pu^ey said, “ is that it will kill
you if you don’t relieve it.”
Pulley suggested many simple
w ays o f re le a sin g stre ss.
Laughing and crying are good
relievers. Physical activity like
jogging, aerobics, dancing, sing. ing, talking to a good listener and
reading are some o f the other
good stress releasers. The secret
is to occupy your mind with some
activity that puts you back in con­
trol. Things like hobbies or even
driving down a qiiiet road will
help to get you feeling that you
are in control with your life. This
feeling then spills over to the
other part o f your life that you
feel stressed out and helps you get
back in control. Pulley suggested
listening to soft music over hard
rock. Slower music makes you
breathe slower and so is a good
stress reliever. •
Some o f the exercises done in
the workshop include meditating,
contra-lateral exercises and blow­
ing “ imaginary balloons” that
allow you to fill your lungs with
air. When you really feel like
punching someone out. Pulley
suggested punching out at the air
in front o f you. “ Besides making
you w ork out it really does help
relieve the stress.”
An attitude replacement is
another form o f visualizing.
Generally you are under stress
Triangle S ta ff W riter
The people in the room had
their eyes closed. They were im­
agining themselves in a beautiful
place they loved. The instructor
helped them along, making this
journey more vivid. Some felt the
sea breeze, the sand warm bet­
ween their toes. Others were
beside a mountain lake where the
air was clean, the water blue and
the waves lapped softly against
the rocks. The people were at the
workshop on Stress and Stress
M anagement and this visualizing
technique was one o f the simple
exercises suggested by workshop
leader Gwen Pulley to relieve
tension.
Pulley said that one o f the ways
to relieve stress was to mentally
substitue an image o f a place you
like to be o r a thing you like to
do. A mind map should be made
o f this image that includes details
like the colors, sounds and feel­
ings. When you are in a stressful
situation you can bring up one of
these images to calm yourself.
Pulley identified some signs of
stress. This included boredom,
insomnia, dread, a deep seated
anxiety that can be masked by
boredom and changes in eating
habits. Pulley said that we should
watch for physical signs o f stress
in ourselves and in people we
know. Some signs are clenched
fists, a tightened jaw expecially
in men, arm s tightly folded over
chest, biting fingernails, raised
shoulders and eating binges.
Pulley said that we are often not
aware of doing this.
Not aU stress is bad. . Pulley
identified the good stressors fike
graduation, a wedding,or a new
because you don’t feel good about
yourself. D on’t try to be perfect
all the tim e.” Pulley said. “ Most
o f all, you should be in control.
D on’t let things like the weather
or your watch control you.”
One o f the ways Pulley sug­
gested to relieve stress in people
who are around you and whom
you care about was touching.
Touching is a great way of reliev­
ing stress. You should discuss it
beforehand and when ever one of
you is under stress, a gentle touch
on the shoulder or the face would
bring into focus that one of you
was under stress *and that the
other person was recognizing it
and caring.
“ Above all, feel good about
yourself.” ____________________

A poetry reading was held in
the living arts lounge on Monday,
November ninth, at 3:30 p.m.
The two performing artists were
Dr. Miriam Kotzin, associate
professor of English, and Lili
Bita, Drexel’s new artist in
residence.
Close to fifty people arrived to
listen to the two women. This in­
cluded students and staff. Both ar­
tists seemed pleased with the
turnout.
“ I was delighted to see so
many students and faculty there,”
Kotzin said. “ It was a pleasure.
I look foward to seeing future
programs.”
Kotzin read first for a half
hour, and then turned the podium
over to Miss Bita. Each woman
had a unique style of writing.
Kotzin described herself as a
“ wr>' feminist poet.” The ma­
jority of her px)ems that were read
were chosen from her book. The
House. These include ‘‘The
Guest Room,” “ The Study,”
“ The Spare Room,” “ The Kit­
chen,” “ The Master Bedroom,”
and “ The Den.” Other poems in­
of ,„e
^ tC E S
Firewalker, Flesh Fire, Baccich
Odes, and Lightning in the
Flesh. Her poems echoed the
spirit of Greece and were filled
with emotion that engulfed the
room. She started her reading
with “ The Dance,” and went on
to recite powerful love poems that
made students in the back row
blush.
These included “ Euridice.”
“ Credo,” “ Night,” and “ Love
Poem for the W ind.” Other
poems were “ The Woman of
Barcelona,” “ The Newcomer,”
“ Baggage,” “ The Debut,” and
“ Absences.” She ended her
recital with “ Epilogue.” Lili Bita
will be performing a one woman
show called “ The Greek Woman
through the Ages” , and en­
courages students to attend.

The
T r ia n g le
Secretary
proposes cut in
student aid
by Stacey Crown
Triangle Staff Writer
Federal Secretary of Education
William Bennett has introduced a
recent plan that would cut student
loans to colleges that suffer a 20
percent or higher default rate by
students.
The proposed regulation will be
formally introduced next year,
and, if approved, would go into
effect in 1990. Bennett’s plan
would not require congressional
approval to be implemented.
Colleges which would be af­
fected under the plan are located
mainly in the Pennsylvania and
Delaware area; rtiany of these
colleges also have a high minori­
ty rate.
Administrators at targeted in­
stitutions felt that not only would
the ruling unfairly affect their
schools, but would also unfairly
affect students who did not
default on their loans.
Bennett’s press aide, Loye
Miller, defended the secretary’s
plan, noting that schools ex­
ceeding the 20 percent guideline
would be evaluated on an in­
dividual basis and would have the
right to appeal and Education
Department decision to withhold
federal funding.
A ccording
to
B ennet’s
statistics, Drexel has a 7.06 per­
cent student default rate. As this
percentage does not take into ac­
count sti\dent3 ^ttiat have repaid
their debts after entering the
PHEAA student loan program,
Drexel’s net rate is actudly lower
than 7.06 percent.
Over
3,000
Drexel
undergraduates have received aid
this year and University officials
expect the number to increase in
years to come.
While Drexel would be in no
danger of having its federal finan­
cial aid cut under Bennett’s plan,
numerous area colleges and
universities would be forced to
face alternative methods of finan­
cial aid and fund-raising to pro­
vide more student funding.
Wellness week
continued from page I
to help maintain blood sugar
levels, thus helping prevent urges
,to smoke.
—Scramble up your day and
change habits connected with
smoking.
—Drink lots of liquids to cleanse
your body of nicotine but pass up
caffeinated drinks and alcohol
which can increase your urge to
smoke.
—Keep busy — study, work on
a crossword puzzle or fix
something around the house.
The Drexel Wellness Commit­
tee helps make people in the
Drexel Community aware of the
need for a healthful lifestyle in all
phases of human endeavor. The
committee is composed of facul­
ty, students and administration
and is headed by Dean of
Students James Hallam.
The committee will be sponsor­
ing a two day wellness program

nails. Unfortunately this all
changed some days ago. It all
happened one Thursday aftemoon
during midterm examination
week.
It was 9:30 a.m. when this
horrible story first began. I
entered the Main Auditorium well
prepared to take a Management
for Productivity (B601) exam.
Having attended all of my lec­
tures and diligently read all of the
assigned chapters, I breezed
through the first twenty-three
multiple choice questions.
Then came question twentyfour. I read “ The Lecturer iden­
tified three steps in the problem­
solving process as;” My hands
started to perspire and my brain
reeled trying to decifer the
to
th e
bank.”
Today’s conditions are strik­
ingly different. For one, the
Federal Reserve Board (which in­
cidentally, yields more power
over monetary policy than the
President) has stepped in and im­
mediately helped to stabilize the
markets after the record drop on
Wall St. by providing ample li­
quidity to the markets. Interest
rates are starting to drop again,
and a falling dollar won’t dev­
astate us as much as most people
think. Now that the market has
corrected (or crashed, according
to Mr. Lackpour), everyone feels
the he/she is the newest star prognosticator on-Wall St. So if the
market “ crash ed,” as Mr.
Lackpour has so eloquently
predicted, what is the premise on
which it is based? The companies
whose daily doings are somehow
represented by the Dow Jones and
other indexes have mysteriously
remained in business during the
panic. Nobody is making runs on
their bank, and my grandmother
hasn’t started selling ^ p le s on the
comer of 15th & Chestnut for 5
cents each. Obviously, for every
panicky seller of a stock, there
was apparently a calm and optomistic buyer. As a leading in­
dicator of the economy, the stock
market is sometimes right and
sometimes wrong. However, its
track record is much better when
predicting upswings, not down­
swings.
At any rate, blind faith in its
predictive powers is inexcusable,
and so is using its recent ‘crash’which no one can ftilly explain as an excuse for more major
fiscal policy changes. The fact
that the popular news media,
especially television, tends to
report economic news with the
depth and sophistication of a
typical coloring book, does not
help matters any. If the market’s
panic had any rational basis at all,
it may have been the fear that in­
flation from an over heated
economy might be on the way
back, not that a recession or
depression were in the offering.

answer. I remembered that in my
Management for Productivity
book, on pages 68 and 69, five
steps of problem solving were
identified as: find and deflne the
problem, generate alternative
solutions, evaluate alternatives
and select a preferred solution,
implement the solution, and
evaluate results. My hand gripped
the lap board as I tried to
remember what had been decreed
in lecture.
I must have, dropped my pen­
cil for a moment that day and
missed the lecturer’s divine
words. Eventually I came to the
most reasonable answer and
entered in on my computer input
paper with my number two lead
pencil next to my social security
numBer which was next to my
section number.
Eventually I finished my 9:30
exam and regained my confidence
for the next exam at 11:00 a.m.
The next m ultiple choice
challenge was to be Management
Information Systems (B625).
Once again I felt as though I
was fairly well prepared for this
exam and entered my first few
answers with cool confidence.

As a finance major, and student
of the financial markets, I cannot
see the parallels of the 1920’s to
the 1980’s. ‘Do nothing’ ad­

Lackpour means here) are just
two parts of an intricate web of
complexity. The market didn’t

Response to candidate
Editor:
I’d like to respond to a can­
didate’s comment in his speech.
I am referring to Paul K.
Johnson’s comment last week
about “ Why isn’t it safe to walk
on Drexel’s campus on a Sunday
aftemoon or any night?”
I have no gripes against you,
Paul, I don’t even know (or care)
who you are, but why isn’t it safe
on Sunday aftemoon on Drexel’s
campus? I have been here for
almost three years, and I have
never had any problems on Sun­
days on Drexel’s campus. I think
the question is whether people are
afraid out of their own ignorances
or prejudices of being in the ci-
ty, or more specifically. West
Philly.' Now, I’m not saying you
should go out alone to the
7-Eleven at midnight, or go
wandering around Philly without
knowing where you are going,
but the city is O.K., if you’re
careful. If you go out with other
people, and know where you are
going, and be “ street sm art,”
you’ll have no problems in Phil­
ly. I think one of the things that
needs to be done is to educate
people on how to safely live in the
c ity .

Then came question number nine­
teen. “ The steps involved in the
Decision-Making Process are:”
Once again my glands began
spewing little animal bodies into
my system. “ Is a DecisionMaking process the same as a
Problem Solving process?” I ask­
ed myself.
My hands began to shake and
I accidentally ate my eraser. I
seemed to remember the words
like Intelligence (Investigating the
environment). Design (Inventing
courses of action) and something
else. Everything was just becom­
ing blurry. As sweat rings form­
ed around my armpits I struggl­
ed for the best possible answer.
I was visibly shaken by this ex­
am. My friends were worried but
I continued on for I had an Adver­
tising (B something) exam
scheduled for 2 p.m. Trying to
regain my composure, I purchas­
ed a black coffee with extra sugar
from a person speaking some
foreign language.
As I entered the classroom for
my next exam, a member of my
Advertising group approached
me with obvious hesitation. She
asked me, “ Did you study
realize we have a large budget
deficit in order to rationalize a
508 point drop in the Dow. It is
not politics or social change that
will bring about a depression,
but, rather, a society that forgets
about the past- because they will
surely be condemned to repeat it!
m uch?” I said, “ I d o n ’t
remember anymore.” She said,
“ Did you study the Problems and
Opportunities model on page
95.” I said, “ What’s that?” She
said, “ You know...its a problem
solving process where you iden­
tify specific problems, then
specific objectives and then make
a basic conclusion.” I said,
“ What?”
By this time memories of past
questions started flailing
themselves against the walls of
my brain. As I treaded through
the questions of my advertising
exam, I kept wondering if I got
number 24 right on the manage­
ment exam or was that the other
question on the MIS exam.
All of the sudden I received a
flashback from my Operations
Management (B602) course that
I had taken this summer. I believe
the problem solving process in
the course involved seven steps.
Phrases like “ identify problem,”
“ specify objectives,” “ develop
alternatives,” “ compare alter­
natives,” “ select best alter­
natives,” “ implement alter­
natives,” “ monitor altematives,
alternatives, altematives”
s o lv in g
Then I remembered the third
step in the MIS Decision-Making
Process was Choice. W ait,
maybe that was the third step
identified by my lecturer in my
Management for Productivity
class.
It was at this time that I lost my
concept of reality. As I sat in my
chair, a tornado of Management,
MIS, and advertising jargon
spiraled in front of me. It was like
a psychedelic name tree filled
with different words that all
meant the same thing. It was a
pile of proverbial garbage spinn­
ing endlessly in circles. Sudden­
ly I saw a vision of myself spray
painting my own three step Pro­
blem Solving process on the walls
of Matheson Hall.
Step 1: Dig a hole.
Step 2: Crawl in.
Step 3; Sing the “ Glory to God
in the Highest.”

Life in a Nutshell

I’m not sure when it happen­
ed, or why, or even how, I on­
ly know that it did. The first
time my voice cracked was pro­
bably an early warning sign.
Perhaps it all began on that
What Nats

fateful day in sixth grade when
I decided that playing
Dodgeball against the girls in
gym didn’t signify all of life’s
rewards.
To the normal reader, it must
sound like I ’m describing
puberty. That’s part of it, but
what I’m really trying to get at
here is the process of growing
up. I’m not talking about grow­
ing older; from the time that we
fall from the womb we grow
older, but the process of grow­
ing up doesn’t begin until much
later (for some, it never
begins.)
Before I even attempt to talk
about the process of growingup, I should try to define what
it is to be “ grown-up.”
Is being grown-up a state of
physical being or rather that of
an emotional one? Can the level
of “ grown-upness” of a person
be characterized by the clothes
he wears, the friends he has, or
the position in society that he
u p
—
so m e
holds? I ’m not sure of the
answers to these questions as
stated, but I do know enough
people to be able to have a nonformal definition of what a
grown-up person is.
Before I begin, I want to
clarify one thing. I will be us­
ing the pronoun “ h e ”
throughout my definition. This
is just by convention, in no way
do I mean to imply that women
can’t be grown-up.
Ok let’s see... A grown-up
person is a well adapted one, he
can take a very bad situation
and extract even the smallest bit
of good. Even the most severe
problems are not cause for total
catastrophe for the grown-up
person. He knows how to set­
tle things, in his own mind
anyway, so as to allow life to
go on.
A grown-up person is by no
means cold; he is always recep­
tive to the feelings of others.
The friends of a grown-up are
grow n-up them selves. A
grown-up person and his friends
know the respective faults of
each, but these faults are never
harped on, they are only joked
about. It might seem as if I’m
pulling this definition of a
grown-up person out of a book.
In actuality, Webster was no
help here; to derive this defini­
tion I simply thought of people
p e o p le
ju s t
who seem to be intuitively
grown-up and listed their traits.
If you do the same, I promise
that you will derive a similar
definition.
' ’
define what being grown-up is,
I can get to the subject the
growing-up process itself. Is it
a sudden or gradual process?
Perhaps it is a never-ending
n e v e r
Like Wow! Ginsburg Confesses
that it really isn’t that bad that
he “ smoked a little weed in his
time.”
On Saturday I decided I was
going to write a letter to the
Editor of The Inquirer explain­
ing my feelings on the Ginsburg
issue. Then I got their Sunday
edition
and
read that
“ editorial.” So now I’m'psyched. I think, “ boy do I have
grounds for a great letter.” But
then Tuesday rolled around and
I scrapped the letter idea and
decided to write a column.
Even William Bennet took a
“ Oh come on let’s get for real”
attitude on the issue. On Tues­
day, Nov. 10th, the Inquirer
reported that Bennett stated, “ it
would be crazy to bar people
from the Supreme Court or
other high public office because
they sm ok^ marijuana or com­
mitted other indiscresions in
their youth.” So, hopefully
when the times comes for me to
get a ‘real’ job, all those
TERRIBLE crimes I committed
as a youth will be forgiven.
Or not.
I just remembered a time
when I took those back issues
of The Triangle and...
Oops, better not test out that
theory too early. I just might
become a hood ornament for
Mike Coyne’s car.

g et th e re
process once it begins. At this
point I am going to sidetrack for
a second to, as they say, tell an
amusing anecdote.
The other day I daught myself
checking my cajendar to see if
I was free to do something on
a particular date. This was
depressing, as I suddenly realiz­
ed that I wasn’t a kid anymore.
That was the final step out of
the utter indifference for time
and place that is synonymous
with childhood. Think about it,
when you were a kid, if it
wasn’t Saturday, Christmas, or
summer, you didn’t want to be
bothered. Not once during my
childhood, do I remember
checking with my calendar to
see if I was free to go out and
play.
To make a long story short
(too late) I asked myself if I am
now an official grown-up. I
have responsibilities don’t I?
My calendar says so! I have ex­
ams to take and bills to pay.
Surely these are the signs that
the process of growing-up has
begun, right? Wrong. These
things signify that I am grow­
ing older (which is a subject for
a column in itself.)
Growing-up begins when one
says to himself, “ Ok, here are
all of these new things being
thrown in my face, whether I
handle them well or not, they
are still going to be there. My
job is to grow-up so I can han­
dle them well.” So we see that
the process of growing-up is ac­
tivated by new challenges and
responsibilities. It is then ob­
vious that growing-up is a con­
tinuous ' process since new
challenges and responsibilities
always arise. One is not grown­
up unless one is growing-up.
I hope that this column isn’t
reading like a bad psychology
text. Why I decided to tackle the
idea of growing-up, I don’t
know. Perhaps the reason for
my interest stems from my
observations of other people. I
see people, (myself included,)
being put under new stresses
every day. Real problems face
these people, the kinds of pro­
blems that have no easy solu­
tions. Some of these people
crumble, and fall back to
childhood. Some of these peo­
ple, the ones that are growingup, face the stress head on and
break it down to manageable
levels.

The Show
by Jeff Promish
Triangle Staff W riter
If you happened to catch a
glimpse o f Rolling Stone
magazine this week, you would
have noticed their cover story,
“ Pink Floyd, the Inside Story.”
This article was quite good in that
it gave the reader an accurate
description of the feud between
Roger W aters and David
Gilmour. However, while it ad­
dressed the issues of the dispute,
it did not even mention the still
unconfirmed rumor of a huge outof-court settlement. Most impor­
tantly, it only concentrated on
their non-musical differences. As
an entertainment writer and musi­
cian, I am primarily concerned
with what goes on on the stage.
All the legal B.S. behind the
scenes is certainly interesting, but
it just doesn’t matter once the
lights go out and the music starts.
Having recently seen the
Waters-less Floyd for a second
time, and after twice sitting
through Roger’s Radio K. A.O.S.
show, it is apparent that the dif­
ferences are more than just
legalities. Just how different were
their concerts?
N ovem ber 13, 1987
T r ia n g le
In the late nineteenth century,
an opera com poser named
Wagner visualized productions so
elaborate he had to build his own
opera house to stage his perfor­
mances. If he were alive today,
he would no doubt be very proud
of Roger Waters who uses the en­
tire arena as his concert stage.
Waters’ show was remarkable in
its thematic coherence, with DJ
Jim Ladd ‘broadcasting’ on-stage
from K.A.O.S. The entire con­
cept was acted out superbly, with
Billy, the main character from the
album, and Ladd exchanging
dialouge between songs. Waters’
use of movies and an electronic
billboard (a la Times Square) was
also instrumental in making his
narrative clear. Other notables
were his satirical commercials
such as the Fawn Hall Bimbo
School and. the Oliver North
Shreddjng service, and his liv e.
call-in segment in which audience
members actually ‘phoned in’ to
Waters via the sound board.
Pink Floyd, on the other hand,
abandoned the idea of thematic
cohesion in favor of an all-out at­
tack on the senses. Although both
acts made use of a quadrophonic
PA system, the Floyd defmitely
used theirs better. Each song was
h ic h
a bombardment of sound from all
directions.
Particularly noteworthy were
the tunes “ One of These Days,”
from the album Meddle, and “ On
the Run” Trom Dark Side of the
Moon. “ One of These Days”
featured the return of the giant in­
flatable pig (not used at the JFK
show). “ On the Run” was easi­
ly the best song of the night.
While Richard Wright recreated
the swirling effects that made
synthesizers famous, a Twilight
Zone type dieam movie was
shown depicting a hospital patient
on a ride to oblivion, then wak­
ing up only to start the sequence
all over again. Unlike the JFK
show, where the song climaxed
with a crashing airplane, the in­
door show actually released a
hospital bed to crash into the
speakers with a fiery explosion.
These effects, and the
mesmerizing sound aside, I did
not feel that the show itself was
all that unique. Sure they had a
brilliant light show, but what ma­
jor Rock act this side of the
Gratefiil Dead doesn’t? Although
they did have a unique set-up, us­
ing the lights with the projection
screen to create a kaleidoscope
effect, I couldn’t help but think
that their stage show was just a
continuation of the techniques
a n d -S a tu rd a y
D E P A R T M E N T

P E R F O R M I N G
I s
developed with Roger Waters and
that they really didn’t contribute
anything new.
The Music
The music is a different story.
While Gilmour, Mason and com­
pany remained true to their roots.
Waters was obviously missing
something. I don’t know the
reason, perhaps because of his
desire to break away from the
Floyd mold, or maybe he was just
playing his own style. Whatever
the reason, Roger W aters’
Bleeding Heart Band just didn’t
cut it. They were excellent on the
songs from the Radio K.A.O.S.
album, but when it came time for
the Floyd songs they sounded like
a second-rate Pink Floyd cover
band. This was no more apparent
than on the song “ Pigs (One Dif­
ferent One)” from the Animals
LP. (It was during this song that
Roger turned to the movie screen,
which displayed the pig floating
over London, and said pointedly,
“ My pig.” )
Pink Floyd’s music, on the
other hand, was simply incredi­
ble. Couple their other-worldly
sound with Gilmour’s guitar play­
ing and Wright’s keyboards and
you get magic. Certainly neither
musician is particularly virtuostic. What they do excel in is
experimenting with new sounds
and textures to create a whole
new dimension in music..Throw
in the dazzling light show and
stage effects (no matter how
pretentious) and it is simply the
best concert you could ever hope
to see. It is the kind of show that
when the lights come on for in­
termission, nobody moves.
A R T S
Oh by the Way, Which One

The accusations and litigations
will undoubtably continue for
some time. The unfortunate con­
clusion is something that neither
Waters nor Gilmour realize Pink Floyd is bigger than either
of them. Neither Waters nor
Gilmour will ever approach the
D r a m a
Cltcfttrtui
P in k ?
levels they reached together, but
the legacy of Pink Floyd will en­
dure long after those two are but
a crazy diamond shining on in
some historian’s eye. Just as
many people today innocently
ask, ‘Who was Syd Barrett,’ the
names Roger Waters and David
Gilmour might mean little to
future generations of music fans.
D i f f e r e n t F lo y d

famous for, as well as many of
the FM mega-hit songs.
So I wonder. Waters is suing
Pink Floyd, alright, is that good
or bad? Well actually it doesn’t
make a difference. If Waters wins
his case, I would buy a GilmourWright-Mason album just as
quickly as a Floyd one. Waters’
solo career goes on one way or
another. What is Pink Floyd
about anyway? Is it about gossip
and legal battles? No. It is about
music. Maybe a short news brief
here and there to keep fans in­
formed, but who needs all the
mass media?
However, since I’m on the sub­
ject, I think that Gilmour might
be making a little more sense here
than Waters. No one forced
Waters out of the band, and he
isn’t being hurt by what Gilmour
is doing. Legally, Waters will
probably lose his case because he
made the fatal mistake of signing
a docum ent that officially
separated him from the group.
However, the songwriting talent
that he is, he is bound to score a
hit with a future solo album
anyway.
So there you have it, the Pink
Floyd story 1987 according to
me. Suggestion: decipher the
Morse code at the very beginning
of Radio K. A.O.S. and play the
quiet part of “ Sorrow” on A
Momentary Lapse of Reason
backwards. Contact me if you
find anything.
I apologize for the use of the
totally useless phrase ‘As you
know’ at the beginning of the
third paragraph.

Less Than Z ero....
Less Than A Movie
by M arc Smith
Triangle Staff Writer
Less Than Zero, Hollywood’s
latest offering of the ‘Drugunderw orld’ genre, tells a sur­
prising story; rich people do
drugs. After the shock of this
alarming news passes so does the
enjoyment o f this wretched film.
The book by Bret Easton Ellis,
which this movie is based upon,
offered a detailed view of the
depravity and alienation o f the
rich youth o f Beverly Hills. Im­
personal sex, loss of identity, lack
of direction, drug abuse, and
violence were shown as symp­
toms of a sub-culture that is
seriously damaged. “ Less Than
Zero” , the book, offered no
answers, choosing instead to
wallow in its self degredation.
Less Than Zero, the movie, offers
a Reagan-A m erica anti-drug
morality play that could have
been directed and written by Nan­
cy Reagan and her ‘Just Say N o’
committee.
It does so poorly. Clay, the
hero in a story that shouldn’t have
one, returns to Beverly Hills al^er

Ever hear of a band called That
Petrol Emotion? No? Well their
another o f the many seemingly
unknown college type bands cur­
re n tly roam in g the N o rth
American Continent. They just
happened to appear at the Revival
on Wednesday night to give a
peppy and bouncey musical
performance. ,
Y e s.......I said peppy and
bouncey. These seem to be the
best words to descibe That Petrol
Emotion. When I first listened to
the A side o f their newly releas­
ed single “ Genius M ove,” a har­
dy yawn proceeded. I was for­
tunately suprised to find their live
performance much m ore upbeat.
They play a very lively style of
pop music. They ir e not great
musicians, great singers, great
dancers or great anything. They
are just a fiin band to watch and
listen to.
That Petrol Emotion is a band
.originally from Ireland. Currently
they are involved in their debut
tour of the states, playing such
places as The Ritz in New York
and 1st Avenue in Minneapolis.
That Petrol Emotion was at' one
time under the direction of
Polygram records, but evenmally made a move to Virgin
Records. In commenting on the
band’s move, manager Andy
Ferguson said, “ The band and I
would like to thank everyone at
Polygram Inc. for all the hard
work that they have done to make
That Petrol Emotion a number
one college act with their first US
release, however deals like this
are done on a worldwide basis
and we feel that worldwide
Virgin will do the best job for
u s.”
The band has had several
releases in the past, but so far
have not gained the success in the
states that they.perhaps deserve.

Another View O f The Pink Floyd Controversy
by G a ry Rosenzwieg
Triangle Staff Writer
First o f all, 1 should point out
that I am a really big Pink Floyd
fan. I challenge anyone at this
college to tell me something about
the band that I don’t already know
or to show me a larger collection
o f Floyd records and stuff than I
have.
W ell, I ’m sure you all know
about the big hoo-ha going on
concerning Floyd. If you haven’t
then you should probably skip the
rest o f this article and go and read
Bloom County again. Well I real­
ly tried to avoid writing about this
subject but what the hell, if Roll­
ing Stone can do it, so can I.
As you know, form er Floyd
bassist and primary songwriter
Roger W aters, is suing the rest of
his former chums for the rights to
the name, the songs, and even the
flying pig. David Gilmour, the
master guitarist for the old and
new Pink Floyd, claims he has
every right to use the name as he
and his mates please, and that
they have been a part o f Floyd for
over eighteen years. Who is
right? Should Gilmour and com­
pany be allowed to go on, or
should Waters get his wish and
see the band name retired? Does
it really matter?
Look at it this way, with the
band split we got two albums and
two concert tours in the last year.
Although neither albums match
the magnificence o f the last fourman-Floyd effort. The Wall, they
are both excellent works in their

seems to have changed him so
that he no longer fits with his old
high society crowd. He only
grudgingly accepts his Christmas
gift of cocaine, which he never
uses, begining his campaign of
righteous abstention. Clay is the
redeemer returned; he tries to
turn Beverly Hills, the modem
world’s Sodom and Gomorrah,
away from its sinful path. His
main method of doing so is to
scowl throughout the film.
Clay gets his chance to prove
his new virtue when his best
friend and girlfriend get caught in
a battle of wills with an evil
pusher-pimp. Clay fails, after
repeatedly finding and loosing his
best friend, to save his friends’
life. But all is not lost! Clay’s
girlfriend, seeing the evil of her
ways, throws away her cocaine;
never, we are led to believe, to
use it again.
Less Than Zero is infuriating in
so many ways it is almost worth
seeing the film; you will have
hours of pleasure tearing it to
shreds. But some of Less Than
Zero's failures are alm ost
criminal; the movie suggests that
the only problem these people
have is that they are addicted to
drugs. Following exactly the cur­
rent anti-drug campaign’s policy,
Less Than Zero reftises to address
or even consider that there are
causes to drug addiction beyond
the availability of the drug.
Worse yet, it suggests that all an
addict has to do is throw away
their drugs and they'll be free.
Anyone who has attempted to quit
smoking knows a little bit of the
difficulty recovering addicts face.
Less Than Zero trivializes the
vailant attem pts and ac­
complishments of people recover­
ing from addictions.
If you get a kick out watching
idiotic characters walk around in
expensive clothes in beautiful sur­
roundings while they do cocaine,
watch .Miami Vice and save
yourself $5.00.

Record Review: Cloud Nine,
George Harrison
What a year for Beatle fans!
Beatle CD’s, Beatle anniver­
saries, Beatle bootlegs such as
Get Back, and now the solo
albums are coming. Paul McCart-'
ney has a double greatest hits
record on the way, Ringo Starr
has plans to get a record out soon,
and George Harrison leads the
pack with the release of Cloud
Nine.
George has had the least most
successful career of all the
Beatles. After his excellent triple
record album, .1// Things Must
Pass, he produced a string of
commercidly and artistically un­
successful albums until 1982. Put
off by the direction of ‘pop’
music, George stopped making
A
N ew
A lb u m
A n d
records until this year.
The much publicized new
record seemed a likely candidate
for the cut-out bins; but lo and
behold, what do you know, the
guy has still got some talent left.
Cloud Nine is a surprisingly good
record.
Now don’t get me wrong, this
is no masterpiece, but it is better
than a lot of the ‘pop trash’ on the
market today. The tracks range
from so-so to excellent, they vary
greatly in tempo and mood,
which does make the album very
enjoyable.
“ Devil’s Radio” and “ Fish On
the Sand” can stand up to some
of George’s hits with the Beatles.
“ Cloud 9 ” and “ Wreck Of the
Hesperus” are also notable tracks
on the album. Featured is also the
single Got My Mind Set On You
which was not written by George
but seems to be popular on the
radio.

Special to The Triangle
When you think of the great
lAige men in the world, the names
Norbett Huber of Italy, Wolfgang
Schlader of Lichtenstein and
Frank Masley o f Newark,
Delaware come to mind.
Frank Masley?
How can a young man who
grew up on the streets of Newark
com pete with world class
superstars in a sport that began in
Germany in the early 1800’s and
didn’t b^om e an Olympic sport
until 1964.
Very well, thank you.
M asley,
a
m echanical
engineering major at Drexel
University has been involved with
the Luge since he was 16. During that time, the 27-yearold has won eight U.S. National
titles, finished 14th in the Mens
Singles competition in the 1984
Olympic Games in Sarajevo,
Yugoslavia and was chosen as the
flagbearer for the 1984 U.S.
Olympic team.
“ This whole experience has
been fantastic,” remarked the
Christiana High graduate. “ I was
always fascinated with the idea of
the being the best in the word at
something and with hard work
and determination I hope to be the
best in the 1988 Olympics.”
The hard work and training is
supervised by Drexel Lacrosse
coach Randy Voigt, who took a
personal interest in Masley after
the 1984 Olympics.
“ Randy has helped me achieve
“ He’s been a tremendous asset to
my developemnt. He’s helped me
attain my dreams.”
The dream began in 1976,
when Masley became interested
in the sport while watching it on
television. He was amazed that
someone could travel that fast, ly­
ing flat on their back.
As a lark, Masley’s next door
neighbor Mike Fagano wrote a
letter to the United States Olym­
pic Committee and the rest is
history.

“ Any money I make I put
towards the team.”
Enter Blue Cross o f Greater
Philadelphia, which has ‘adopted’
Masley as part of its national
“ Adopt an Olympian” program.
Blue C ross of G reater
Philadelphia had made a donation
through’the U.S. Olympic Com­
mittee that will help offset some
of the financial burdens Frank
will face in the next couple of
months leading up to the 1988
Winter games in Calgary, Alber­
ta, Canada.
“ Blue Cross had been really
helpful,” Masley commented. “ I
wasn’t budgeted for the first two
weeks of training in Winterburg.
Their help could not have come
at a better time.
“ I'm very proud to be
associated with such a fine
organization that cares about the
well being of people,” Masley
continued. “ Their support will
make the road easier to
navigate.”
As the Olypmic Games near,
Masley feels that this will be his
last year of competition.
“ I would like to finish up my
degree and persue a career in
engineering,” Masley said. “ I
like to design things and hopeful­
ly the skills I’ve learned at Drex­
el will enable me to do that.”
Masley has already shown that
what he’s learned at Drexel in the
classroom has paid off on the
Luge course.
“ One of my professors told me
that if I threw my upper body for­
ward during my start, that it
would cut 5 hundreds of a second
off my tim e,” Masley said.
“ Sure enough, it has worked
and I've been using that start
since.”
Meanwhile, back home in
N ew ark, m asley ’s parents
Thomas Clara and his four
sisters, Mary. Sarah, Jane and
Margaret still can't get over their
shock of how far Frank has come.
“ At first everyoe was surpris­
ed that I would be interested in
the Luge.’’Masley explained.
“ But now that they’ve seen my
success, they are all for it.”
After the Olympics are com­
pleted, Masley will retrun to
Drexel and continue his relation­
ship with Diane Gilardi. his
longtime sweetheart who works
at the Children’s Hospital of
Philadelphia.
“ I'm sure we'll get married in
the future,’’Masley said. “ But
right now, I have too many things
to do.”
And one of them is to prove to
everyone that a kid from Newark,
Delaware can slide with the best
of them.

1987-88 Drexel Women^s Basketball Preview
N e w
y e a r , d if f e r e n t c h a lle n g e s
by Jim Bruno
O f The Triangle
Last year at this time, the
Drexel W om en’s Basketball
team was talking about a team
of youth. The season was set to
be a rebuilding period as the
pre-season coaches poll chose
the Dragons for last place. Well
either the team rebuilt in a
hurry, or the coaches- didn’t
know what they were talking
about. The team went on to
finish the regular season tied for
first place.
This year the team has been
chosen first in the pre-season
coaches poll, and Coach-of-theyear Lillian Haas is hoping for
another strong effort. C 9 ach
Haas is now in her 25th year for
Drexel. Her main concern is
that, unlike last year, other
teams will be expecting a strong
Drexel team and gunning for
them.
Barbara Yost will lead the
strong Drexel team that returns
all of its starters from last year.
Yost last season became the se­
cond player in Drexel history to
score 1000 career points. She is
the point guard and playmaker
of an explosive offense. Senior
guard/forward Gina Miniscalco
is the heart of the Drexel offense
and defense.
Barbara Alexander, a junior
forward, is the leader o f the
Drexel defense. Last season,
Alexander averaged 12.7 points
per game, and led the team with
243 rebounds. Kitty Dougher­
ty, last years most consistant
player, contributes in all areas
of the game. Last season she
averaged 13.6 points per game
and shot 79% from the free
throw line. Joyce Moffett, a
center with a strong inside
game, and Karen Sollanek, a
defensive forward, will also be
seeing plenty of playing time.

Just who does Chuck Browne
think he is. He must lead a
sheltered life if he thinks he is the
only Triangle staff member who
gels leners from readers. The
Triangle Sports staff also gets
plenty of mail (the sports staff
consists of, well, mainly, me).
It's time for us to catch up oo our
readers' comments as we answer
our ‘voluminous reader mail'.
Letter number 1:
Dear Jim,
Did you hear that St. Joe’s
adopted a football team because
they didn 't have one their o^n.
They chose to root for Auburn
and got a trip to Alabama with a
guided tour and a free banquet in
their honor. How could you have
missed that idea.
A parrying
Pre-Junior
Dear P.J.
We did not miss out on the
idea. We actually' discussed adop­
ting a football team for Drexel
students to root for, but we decid­
ed against if. St. Joe's had the
right idea, but they went about it
all wrong. Wbo wants a guided
tour of some hick town in
Alabama anyway. We had better
teams in mind and here are some
of our chmces.
1) Cdumtna - the holders of the
longest losing streak in history ,
now at 39 ganaes. Drexel a ^
Columbia seemed like the perfea
match because Drexel needs a
team to root for, and Columbia
needs all the help it can get.
Figure also that if Drexel were to
suddenly start up its own football
team, they would instand> be bet­
ter than Cc^umbia.

There were two problems with
Columbia though. The partying
firom Drexel being involed, even
remotely, with an all-time record
(even a loss record) may cause
mass riots and destruction. On the
other hand, had Columbia won a
game with us behind it, Drexel
students would become extreme­
ly big-headed and cocky. For
these reasons, Columbia was
rejected.
2) Temple. Penn State, or Petm
- seemed logical to consider a
kxal team, sort of a civic pride
I guess. But everybody loves
Pom Stale so they sure don’t need
our help. Other Drexel sports
play Temple so it didn’t seem
rigte to pull for Temple Football
and against their other teams.
Penn, well they never warn to
have anything to do with us, so
why should we root for them?
3) U.S.C. - great idea rigta. Pick
U p c o m in g
some Califoria team, get an all
expense paid trip to the West
Coast, and get to lounge on the
beach before the game. Then we
remembered which school has a
worse nickname than the
‘Dragons'. You guesses it. the
‘Trojans’.
In the end we decided to bag
the idea and relax until basked»U
season. If anyone has a bener
choice of a school to adopt for
next season, stop by and tell us.

Dear Jim,
I just love watching basketball
games at DrexeL Not to see
Michael Anderson drive to the
hole, ruH to see John Rankin re­
ject someone, not even to see
cheerleaders take dives from
pyramids. I love to see the newfasions as modeled by Coach Eddie
Burke. What do I have to lookfor­
ward to this year. ?
Fasion Consious
Finance Major
E)ear Major: The Coach has spent
a tough summer preparing game
{^ans, recruiting, and buik&ig his
wardrobe. This year will be a bit
different diough. He plans to
make this the year be highlights
outfits from different coach^ in
all sports. He recenUy clued me
in on some of the trib«Mes he has
planned.
For Drexel’s first home game,
he will wear a W'mdsor Shin and
dress like Rollie Massamino.
Later in the season. Coach Burke
will sport a white towel on his
^KNilder like John Thompson,
bite a white towel like Jerry
Tarkanian. and also wear a
^lecial Tom'Landry outfit com­
plete with hat. He is also think­
ing about a Lee Elia Phillies
uniform including Redman chew­
ing tobacco.
Letter number 3:
Dear Jim,
I wonder about you sometimes.
You don’t like football, and your
column is called 'Better Read
Than Dead'. I dunk those guys
who called you a commie pinko
know something we don't. / bet
you are the kind of guy who roots
for the Dallas Cowboys, die New
York Yankees, and Wilson
Goode.
