i Mary Janet Zeitler, a senior
mathematics major has been
cited by the directors sof -the
Argonne National Laboratory for
her "exceptional work**} com-
pleted at the Laboratory's 1971
Summer | Student! Training
Program. % ^
Dr. |Richard| J. Ronan iof
Argonne's Center for Educational
Affairs served as Miss'Zeitler's
research supervisor during the
10-week training * period. Mary
Janet--a^ native of Sharon-
researched the topic "Mercury
Analysis?of Soil by Flameless
Atomic Absorption^ Spec-
troscopy." 7% *4
In a letter to the College
Science Division, Dr. 5 Ronan
commended Miss Zeitler on her
problem solving ability. "As a
senior mathematics major with
no background in chemistry, she
did an absolutely great job," said
Ronan. "She rapidly focused on
the ^almost purely applied
analytical chemistry problem,
which resulted in perhaps * the
neatestfwork done anywhere'by
anybody in this area. Her overall
job performance was excellent."
The primary purpose of the
Argonne Summer Training
Program is? to provide un-
dergraduate students with ex-
perience in the area of scientific
research. At the same time, the
program serves as an opportunity
for student-scientists from across
the?country to mee^other
collegians and exchange | ideas
and experiences.1 f i^V
I Asa participant in the science
confab, Mary | Janet attended
various seminars for chemists,
worked 1 in t thef instrument

research finding to chemistry
majors ^and to members off the
Argonne staff / fifif f *

dean's list winner. She served as
class officer in ^her freshman
year, and in her second year at

Undoubtedly the last ten years
have done much to advance and
define the professional status of
women. New doors have been set
ajar and old doors set wider open.
This has been due, considerably
to the reaction from the
professional hospitalities ex-
tended during the war; and
women who worked shoulder to
shoulder with men are
discovering that the masculine
shoulder may be coldly turned In
a selfish, jealous manner.

vanced into professional

the difficulties of a situation with

Therefore it would seem that if
anyone who is j. a gainst com-

willing to sell-out the people and
the freedom of the entire? Asian

BesidesUhe people of Southeast

also be taken into consideration. ?*
The loss of South Vietnam to
the communists would mean that
the balance of power would sway

bases to strike out from. It would
endanger many other I nations,

These facts, along with many

ask wi.j does it have to be the

part of "Big Brother'*? It is not
easy to simplify the answer but
the fact remains that^no other
country can afford to intervene in
a large international conflict. The
United States has decided that
the freedom their citizens have
enjoyed for so . many years is
the same freedom they are
fighting for in Vietnam.
&As for the war itself, U.S. News

'further concessions to the

Pol Statement
There is a need for the art
studio to be available for student
use beyond the regular scheduled
art classes. The following open
studio policy is - being im-
plemented effective im-
mediately. While the art faculty
will be responsible for the studio
hours, faculty control is also
necessary of those students who
have access to the studio spaces
after class hours.
ART FACULTY g
RESPONSIBILITY
: Each staff member is
responsible for his specific studio
or teaching areas for main-
tenance and clean up; for issuing
temporary student passes or
recommending permanent
students passes to use their
specific area or areas; that
security guards know when area
studio room should be unlocked
and locked all days; select
student or students to be
responsible for monitoring studio
during open studio time; see that
there is no smoking in studios.
ART FACILITY
AUTHORIZATION
The studios are to be unlocked
7:00 a.m. and locked at 6:00 p.mg
daily by the security guards. The
art spaces listed below with
if specific instructor control are to
be opened by the guards on week-
day evenings, 6:00 to 10:00 p.m.

OTHER CONCERNS: *
Jl. Because of the^nature of a
great deal of art, materials and
supplies, smoking will not be
permitted at any time in any of
the art facility areas.
2. Since some of the art tods
and equipment can be dangerous
weapons, we caution all students
to be extra alert* in using these
items. > J
3. The art. facilites are for
student;' use • and * it. is expected
therfore, that the students will
take responsibility for the
building's appearance by
cleaning* up in* areas in
which they have been working. It
is hoped that all students par-
ticipating in any art experiences
will take pride in being a part of
the art department and will
reveal this in their attitude and
their behavior.
4. Art majors and students
enrolled in art-courses during a
given term have the privilege of
using the art studio. However,

studios during open studio time,

of the Division of Creative Arts
has already begn implementation
on a limmted scare of the com-
petency performance evaluation
system for some courses. This is
in place of the traditional letter
grades. At this time the recording
system for this performance-
comptency method is the pass-
fail. It is hoped that a new system
eliminating the pass-foil concept
will be adopted by the Art
component with ^permission and
approval of the Senate and the
Currriculum |Committee4 It has
long been the contention of many
creative art people-that tM
traditional grading system of A B
C is a hindrance to the creative
Potential and^ the ^imaginations
which are so important to the
[development of the* fullest
Potential of peoples. In'essence,
the competency-evaluation
system eliminates the kind of

Mercyhurstj Students' Arts
Council, which*was., formed last
year by a few art majors, has the
potential of becoming a very
productive and lasting
! » #
organization on campus.
*
v This year the council has grown
and/ upon the ratification of its
< & constitution, in a few weeks it will
be an t official campus
organisation. According to the
President of the Council. Rich
Ohman. the members of the
Council hope to promote the arts
in both the city and at Mer-
lira .:&
cyhurst. Although at the present
time the only members %are art
majors, the membership is open
to the faculty and students; The
media dealt with will involve all
art forms, not only the visual
arts. This means that members
are needed
w
to represent the
music department, the drama
department and the other
department on campus (those
with an interest in creative arts).
Said Rich Ohman: "One of the

reasons the MSAC was formed
last year and why students should
join now is that asla collective
unit we can acquire materials not
available to the individual". He
went on to say that with a larger
membeship there would be more
people thinking of things for the
rest of the community. At the
present, .there are a limited
amount of ideas because of the
small membership.
Some of tne activities me
MSAC hopes to present are: a
trip to a Major art* gallery in
February, a beer blast at some
time in the furture,
y
and an Arte
Week.
The Arts Week would be a week
filled with j-various art presen-
tations. The hope is that, for an
entire week, the membership of
the council (which should include
musicians, actors, dancers,
writers, and other artists) will be
presenting their specific art
forms throughout the campus.
Rich felt that in time the MSAC
could arrange and control ail the
cultural "activites on campus.
However, unless the :rest of the
school takes an interest in the
council, the factivities it, can
present will be very limited.
Anyone interested r in the
council should contact Rich
Ohman for * membership or for
further information. 1

The Promiscuous
Henry
By Sue Weiner
NOTE: To date, PBS (WQLN,
Ch 54 in Erie) hat broadcast two
segments of "The Six Wives of
Henry VIII."* which appears on
Sunday * evenings at nine.
Although CBS aired the BBC
series during the summer, each
show! lost fourteen minutes to
commercials. This current
showing gains from the historical
^background with which Alistair
Cooke introduces each segment
'"The Six Wives of Henry VIII"
presents excellence in one of its
rare television' appearances. All
the performers infuse realism
and spirit into the characters of
Henry's court and the scripts
dramatize with authenticity by
the intrigue and politics which
influenced and were influenced
by the monarch's relations with
his wives. ",
In a highly impressive per-
formance. Annette Crosbie
portrays Catherine of Aragon,
the proud Spanish princess whom
Henry marries on the wish of his
father. Henry* s request for a
divorce, after many years of a
good marriage, greatly affects
the queen*s emotions and health.
Nevertheless, Catherine
responds rwith remarkable
strength and courage by
refusing. under repeated
pressure, to sign the papers
relinquishing her title as queen
and her daughter Mary's rights
as heir to the throne. * stilling the people with confidence
Ann Boleyn, usually considered
as an \alluring and irreverent
villian,-emerges as a woman of
depth and sensitivity through
Dorothy Tutin's dynamic per-
formance. As Henry exposes the
cruel aspect of his nature to his
second queen, she begins to fear
him and erroneously blames
herself for Catherine's suffering
through the divorce.
i A group within the court which
includes the ambitious Thomas
Cromwell and Anne's jealous
sister-in-law. Lady Rochford,
provide justification for Henry's
wish to rid himself of the queen.
As they accuserher of incest and
adultery, Anne asserts her in-
nocence and rights at the trial
and speaks her final words at the
block with dignity.
Anne Stallybrass faithfully
depicts vJane ^Seymour, the
devout, modest third wife,
Henry's favorite. Notr entirely
submissive. Jane criticizes the
king's policies of suppressing the
Catholic monasteries and suc-
cessfully * advocates Mary's
return to, the court. Henry's
obsessive desire for a son induces
even this most beloved and well-
treated queen to fear her,future
in the event that she bears ^a
daughter.
& Two year's after Jane's death
(shortly following the birth of
Edward). Thomas Cromwell,
who has correctly perceived
Henrv's attitudes, encourages
the king to remarry. The advisor
arranges a wedding between the
monarch and Anne of Cleves for
<m alliance with Protestant
Germany. Energetically por-
trayed^ by Elvi Hale, Anne
challenges the sovereign in. a
program that emphasizes the
comedy of .this match of pride,
ingenuity, and stubborness.
After the divorceIwith Anne,
Henry, now 49, marries the. 18-
year-old Catherine of Howard.
Angela Pleasence imaginatively
presents the beautiful, deceptive,
bold woman who weds Henry to
gratify her vanity and to acquire
the wealth and servants of her
position. Disillusioned with the
king, Catherine chooses a lover
whom she meets with the aid of
Lady Rochford. The scheme is
discovered and Henry reluctantly
sends Catherine to the Tower for
execution.
A year later, |Catherine Parr,
acting on n the persuasion of the
ambitious man fshe loves,
Thomas Seymour, agrees? to
1
become Henry's sixth wife.
Rosalie Crutchly gives a fine
performance as the gentle,
manipulated woman who
becomes * suspect of religious
heresy. Surviving Henry, the
embittered Catherine again
decides to place; the nation's*
welfare before her own and so
marries Thomas in hopes of in-
in the regents. 5
As the series progresses from
Catherine of Aragon to Catherine
Parr, Henry gradually changes
from the devout, athletic,
charming young king to the gross,
diseased, boastful despot. Keith
Michell skillfully portrays Henry
through this transformation, a
performance which earned him
England's highest acting award.
In viewing the monarch's
relations with his wives, it
becomes evident that Henry
brought Smuch suffering or
frustration, or even death to his
wives. However, he did.$ not
emerge unscathed from these
injustices. Directly or-indirectly,
each queen attained some degree
of retaliation, though most of
them wished Henry no harm.
Henry suffered especially
through these queens: through
Catherine of Aragon—strained
political relations due to the
divorce; through Anne of
Cleves—personal defeat! due to
her refusal to submit to his
authority, and through Catherine
Howard—humiliation land
-
genuine pain due to her deception
and infidelity.
Throughout its presentation of
the personalities and the events of
Henry's reign, "The Six Wives of
Henry VIII" weaves imagination
into the historically know. The
results is a series of beautifullz
enacted masterpieces.

ButjThe Little
We Are
By Mark Zine
The Mercyhurst Drama
Department offered us^, a
beautiful little Christmas present
on the night of December 15.
Wrapped, up in a package of
talent and a feeling of life, the
audience received a show of
original works. By first? asking
some honest questions, we feel
some simple but moving answers
t hat the cast projected.
On a tangent of .love, in-
dividuality, and humanity, the
cast shared the feelings of war,
hatred, and the unknown; giving
assurance to a positive outcome
"if we only had Love." ("Think
about it"). ; I delectable piece of merchandise
A few of the most touching
scenes I have seen were part of
this production. "My boy" with
Christi jWarnick, Laura Mon-
tipetit and Dennis Andres
projected the emotions of a
family which lost their son, Eric
Watson in the war. Miss Warnlck
showed a mother's pride; her son
died for us. But she realized that
all glory is lost with death. Miss
Montpetit offered her worship to
her big brother—but what for—
being killed. Dennis Andres, as
his father, believes in starting all
over by taking a new family
protrait. His inability to realize
his loss is extremely emotional.
In the party scene, Candy
Yanker does an outstanding job
as Jill, a girl realizing her own
death. She was so believable, the
audience sat with handkerchiefs
in hand feeling .the ^emotional
situation.*^ «
"But the Little We Are" is in no
way mundane. It was full of life.
"Rhythm," is a beautifully happy
scene ^caused the audience to
want to getjup and dance. The
church scene vibrated with joy.
"Eighteen was a youthful
number done with the powerful
voice of Kim Henderson.
Although the choreography in
"Eighteen** was too childlike,
professionalism was definite
throughout the rest of the show.
Marie Oliveri, singing "Moon
River/* also deserved mention.
Once again, Mancini's soft*and
dream-like melody was delivered
by a beautiful voice that it
deserves. J
With "Reach out and Touch
Somebody's Hand" as its finale,
the unity of man was portrayed
on the stage. |
f^Director Paul Iddings did a
tremendous job in such a short
(less than three weeeks) period.
It is obvious that the dedicated
cast gave their all to make "The
Little We Are" a worthy cause.

To use that! old cliche, this
section of the 9? schedule will
" make or break* the Hurst. This
part of the season includes 12
road games; with trips to
Michigan. D.C., Virginia and
Delaware. With the Lakers only
taking on a few of their 71 op-
ponents during this time, it would
be foolish to ntake any sort of
prediction. But. one can say that
if the team keeps up their level of
play, an IK-7 record wouldn't be
too far-fetched. A record like that
may possibly mean a post-season
NAIA bid. And with a bid. the
interesting fact of a likely
meeting with our gracious
downtown neighbors could
become apparent '.
