Eriei&ijM Hu rs tThe Erie commumtv has everyright to*be proud ofsMercyhurstCollege. Whereas mostprivate liberal arts colleges areoperating on | deficit budgets,Mercyhurst has a budget writtenin J black ink. 4Whereas I most

private liberal arts colleges aresuffering from j a I decline tinenrollment, Mercyhurst has arecord enrollment this fall of 1,469students, 79 8 women and 67 1 men.This year alone brought 452 newstudents to the college, 362 ofthese collegians are freshmenand the remaining 90 are transferstudents from 41 colleges anduniversities throughout theUnited States . JUnder i President Marion L.Shane, now in his second year inthe office of the president,Mercyhurst is attempting todevelop a ^liberal curriculumwhich will meet both the life andthe career needs of its students.Mercyhurst also is finding waysto provide educational opportunities for these citizens whoare outside of the traditional 18-to-22-year-oldfc group. One resulthas been the highly successfulColleger of Older Americansestablis hed in the s umm er of 1972and which is currently servingmany citizens of theflErie community who are 55 years of ageand older. This program is offered to Senior Citizens on a ye arround basis free of charge .The Erie community can beproud also of both the economicand the cultural impact made byMercyhurst. The College has abudget just in excess of $3 million,virtually all of which is spent inthe Erie community. This $3million | doesginot | include -fthesignificant amount of moneyspent in the Erie community eachyear by the College's students. Inaddition,]; there are 2,500graduates of Mercyhurst, manyof whom live and work inErie andthus contribute jgreatly to* itseconomy. The^CollegeTalso is acenter for cultural activities suchas plays, concerts, and lectures.Mercyhurst^ College wasfounded^ in 1926 j[ with anenrollment of 25 women. In 1969,the College! becamecoeducational andfc today thenumber of men enrolled at theHurst nearly equals the numberof women students.

CHARGE OF DRIVELI SPARKS RESPONSE

Congratulations, Mercyhurst*At last, your true colors areHying. I your ideals areflourish ing. No longer is yournewspaper editorializing apathy.No longer is your student body asilent majority. They've spokenout and expressed their innermost convictions. At last, yourcommunity of intellectualpioneers is being exposed to nitty-gritty drivel. fMercyhurst, you've reachedthe heart of life! Your Merciad sscope includes everything fromone man's personal, individualdiscovery of Jesus to Zuppo Q.Pimpletucker's * touching articleabout indignities imposed onbookstore g thieves. Mostsignificantly though,! you'vefinally come to grips with theearthshaking Mercyhurst datinggame. v I I

Congratualtions *Mercyhurst,your children are de ep!!Relevantly yo urs, ;Collen McManamon%Dear Miss McManamon,Having singled out a small

portion of the articles publishedin last week's paper, you expressed your opinion. Bear withme while r attempt! to answeryOUPf."drivel" charges. TheMerciad has an obligation to thestudents not only to inform butalso to express. You seemed tohave only read page two of lastweek's paper. What about pagesone, three and four? Ir feel theMerciad staff' covered 'manyimportant i issues on thepreviously mentioned pages.Humor is also-important, and ifwe make a point with our hum or,all the better. * \ iEDITORIALWilliam Who?b y S h a r o n W a r n e r and A n n a M a s h h i c

As sta ted in the 1973-1974 Mercyhurst College Catalogue "Mercyhurst College has as its purpose the promotion of the growth anddevelopment of the individual student, i .Since the social environment complements the growth of the individual, the c ultural,social, athletic, and spiritual activities of the campus are as vital toa stud ent's total education as is his academic program ." | I UThis ye ar's cultural series grew out of that very concept with thepurpose of treating the cultural qu ality formerly neglected by theschool. ^STf I M- i 1 T ' i $The cultural series is an experiment in determining w hether theywould be willing to finance a comparatively expensive andstimulating program of cultural activity at M ercyhurst. However,we feel certain that without the support of the Mercyhurst community , the program will be terminated. &This year's cultural series initiated with the appearance ofWilliam Kunstler, September 25, at Mercyhurst Prep. Auditorium.Attendance at this first cultural function was observably poor tothose connected with the senes. ?Pf W ~ ? *F ortunately, Mr. K unstler w as not inhibited by the turn out. Hewas relatively pleased with the attendance and exceptionallypleased with their response. f J Jf i We are *grateful thatjJMr. Kunstler spoke favorably of an unnecessary situation. However, we as students cannot overlook thisnegligence on the part of the students, faculty, and administrationof Mercyhurst - negligencej for all attempts were made to inform u sin advance of Kunstler's appearan ce. The Merciad, in a relativelylengthy article, attempted to acquaint the institution with him.Local media and'press also offered at least minimal advancepublicity for the event, thus eliminating any excuse for last Tuesdaynight's poor attendance. I t jHWe do not mean to acc use the Mercyhurst community (this including faculty and|administration as well as J students) of inflexibility or of narrowmindedness. Yet, if they? are not willing togive their support to the larger interests of the school, they willinevitably destroy those objectives of growth and * developmentfrom which the school has grown. I ] tAgain referring to the M ercyhurst College Catalogue, "The mostimportant dimension of Mercyhurst history has been the flexibilitythat encourages growth. Probably Mercyhurst's most valuabletradition has been the ease and enthusiasm with which it has entered every new phase of its remarkab le grow th." If this traditionis true, where was the ease and enthusiasm on September 25? f $|We do not suggest that the Mercyhurst community force themselves to participate inany activity that they do not consider fruitfulor enjoyable. We do, however, suggest that-they > re-evaluateexactly w hat is fruitful and enjoyable to them and consider newdimensions. | j *In this re-evaluation, we hope that the door will not be closed toanything potentially beneficial to themselves or to the school.

PAGE! 6 MERCYHURST COLLEGEDario's Di v o t sREADYIOR NOT

D A K I O C I P R I A N I . S P O R T S E DIT O RDean Garvey was recently quoted in the Erie Times as saying."When I think that we play such teams as Cornell, I'm amazed at jour progress. ' ' H o w true it i s . I can remember three years a g o whenMercyhurst had seven tennis players and could barely scrapetogether six golfers. Today, w e boast a sports program which fieldsfive intercollegiate team s and has nearly one hundred com petitors.Progress has been s o rapid that this year w e can actually be calledsmall college powers in tennis and basketball. $ * f | fNot only Cornell appea rs o n our fall schedule, but also the likes ofBoston College, Akron University, MIT, St. Bonaventure andBuffalo State. And that's just the fall, wait until basketball:Maryland-Eastern Shore, Shaw College, Stubenville and Hillsdale.everyone who has been involved in Mercyhurst athletics over thelast three years is well aware of the progress that (lie various Lakerteams have made. Now it is]time to ask the Erie communitywhether or n o t they are aware. S | WIAt a press conference recently}Dr. Shane announced that theboard of trustees had' voted to conduct a feasibility study todetermine if the E rie community would support the construction ofa CoUege Center. The board will try to find out if the Erie community will supp ort a campaign to raise $ 1 . 5 million, jkfT h e need for a College Center is definitely evident at Mercyhurst.With an overall enrollmen t of near 1,500, adequate space to conductactivities such as women's ]basketba ll, volleyball, m en's in-tramurals, and most of all, a place to house the classy Lakerbasketball team , is necessary. " ^W4-\tf! Preliminary plans call for an indoor track, a main basketballcourt, twopractice courts, sites for volleyball, badminton, shuf-fleboard, gymnastics and wrestling. Also, locker room facilities, anequipment roo m, comfort facilities for the public, a training room,handball and squash courts, and offices for the staff. The seatingcapacity is expected to b e around 3,000, which I feel is a little shy ofwlicit it should be y-Combined with the physical activity aspec t of the College Centerwill be a student center. Here possibilities include a rathskeller,game rooms, a television room, three lounge are as, student officesand classrooms, anda flexible learning center. j gAn edifice as explained above would be ideal for the MercyhurstCommunity. What w e need is the cash. With the cost of living everincreasing, it becomes more and more difficult to find free money.It's even mor e difficult to find $1.5 million . ? JThe Erie community will decide whether the college is "ready",|"not ready yet", or " n o " for th e structure. | $I hope that the people of Erie realize our need. If plans are notfinalized at this time, it might take forever to get our facility built.At the earliest,#he center could be ready for occupancy in September of 1 9 7 5 . Believe m e , we ll struggle until then. We'll keep ourfingers crossed until \; October 24 when the decision will be announced. Let's hope the answer is "ready."

A WOMEN'S REIGNi

OCTOBERS1973

College sports are an introductory course to professionalathletics. They* are greatly effected by society's present interests especially consideringtheir definite concern for physicalfitness. Football, basketball andlbaseball have been all- time|favorites of college awareness.Noticeable, these (all) arecentered around only one sixth ofthe human race males .Women soontbegan*to dominatecollege life and search for sportsto participate in. One was sure tobe discovered and changed fromthe snobbish, extremely wealthysport to the universal, relaxingtalent of the average American.Obviously, the unlimited appealof all was resolved in tennis.Tennis began in England alm osta century ag o. The extravagantlyrich were the only ones involvedand court ownership w as the onlyexistent.pi Now, more than i thirteenmillion American men, womenand children are playing on morethan 2,500 courts. The sport is arelaxing one in which neither agenor sexis'a hinder. Although, it isstill not an extremely| cheapsport, it has advanced itself intothe recent building of communityfacilities. J p |It is?estimated that half of all|new tennis players are women orgirls. Some misjudge the sport asrequiring great physical strengthand power, but actually swiftmovement andiracket handling

are one's best advantages. This,of course, gives the woman achance of achieving a victoryover "Muscle Man". Proof of thiswas the outcome of theflliggs-King match tw o weeks a g o . WhileRiggs filled his gut with^mUsclebuilding protein vitamins, theVictorian King concentrated onher strong backhand and shotplacing. Riggs was a victim of theusual disease of male ignoranceland a carrier of the germ 'malechauvanism." Before the matchRiggs stated, *i plan tofbombBiuie Jean King in the match andset back the Women's Libfmovement about another 20lyears." Instead Riggs made thewomen's role in the society ofsports m ore noticeable and Kinggave women's tennis an applause.Here at Mercyhurst! we haveorganized a girl's tennis team.

girls w h o find tennis an enjoymentand w h o try to fulfill their goal ofself-satisfaction. Tennis is aprestige spo rt, which can well berealized at any one of the girl'smatches.
