Temperatures in the 60's and 70's this week prompted these students to take advantage of the warm weather. But they weren't the only ones to enjoy it. This canine (Max) also got into the spirit of spring.

After two terms of research, students to cancer sfuaies at conference

Mercyhurst Cancer Research students are scheduled to attend the Annual Eastern Colleges Science Con-ference held on the campus of SUNY at Fredonia on April 18 until April 20.

At the conference, seniors Cindy White and Ron Verrilla will present papers on the results of their two-term cancer research experiments^ ^5 £

White's paper is "The Anticancer In-fluence? on a Cobalt Complex on Ehrlich Ascites Tumor" and Verrilla's paper is entitled, "The Inhibiting Effect of Cobalt Acetate and Sodium Ascor-bate on the Mitotic Activity of Ascites Tumors.*" \

White explained that the purpose of their experiments was to increase the survival rate of mice with cancer. Ac-cording to her, they had a 73 percent survival rate among the laboratory animals. t I White .adds that she and Verrilla worked on their experiments together because "it's easier with two people handling the mice." 2 f >

In past years,|the event attracted about 400 fathers and I daughters. Gilroy believes the overall cost of the weekend was a factor contributing to the decrease in responses. Also, many studentsjwanted their mothers to$at-tend the weekend event, ffiw .jr. -

"If we invited mothers! then it wouldn' t be a father-daughter weekend, it would be another parents' weekend," added Gilroy. g t j \ I MfcActivities for the weekend included volleyball games and tennis matches in the Campus Center Saturday after-noon.

Students inducted into Delta Mu Delta By Mary Loncharic and Susan

Marcy | April fourteenth marked the

beginning of Delta Omicron at Mercyhurst, the 111th chapter of Delta Mu Delta National Honor Society.

An installation 'ceremony took place* on Sunday, April 14th in Zurn Recital Hall, and a reception followed. $ During the ceremony, 46 charter members and three honorary members were in-ducted into the honor society.

To be recognized! as a member, students had to have completed 60 credits and earn-ed a 3.2 academic average.

The honorary members are Dr. William P. Garvey, presi-dent of Mercyhurst, J. Robert Baldwin, president of Baldwin Bros. Inc. and trustee, and Dr. A. Jean Lavin, director of the Business Department. §• *?•

The honorary members were installed font heir distinguish-ed, business and leadership abilities.*-

Professor A. J. Foranoce, president ? of the National Honor Society, traveled to Erie from Old Westburg, New York, to -• give an ^address Tat the ceremony.

Professor Foranoce is the associate director of the New York j Institute Center for Business and Economics at the college's Metro Center in Manhattan. He has been presi-dent of Delta Mu Delta for two years and a member for thir-teen years, i

These past two years he has been actively involved in chapter installation. He has seen the honor society grow from 36 chapters to 117. i Applications for chapters to

be installed at colleges" are made to Delta Mu Delta, but on the average two out of ten ap-plications are approved. After thorough evaluation, Mer-cyhurst was accepted as a chapter college.

Dr. Lavin will be the group's advisor. "Being a part of the business department, I'm real-ly*, exc i ted about Delta Omicroon. Delta Mu Delta is so prestigious^ and highly recognized." t J

In his address to the newly formed chapter, Professor Foranoce gave some advice to the chapter members. He in-structed the students to prac-tice interviewing skills and to get work experience in-their fields. He stressed that students should continue their education after college.

Professor Foranoce said that "With the vast number of students receiving j college degrees, more than a diploma is needed to get ahead." J

I Professor A. J. : Foranoce presented the charter? to Dr.

Lavin, who established the Mercyhurst chapter. 1 The chapter members received pins and certificates. fThe honorary* members * received plaques.

The honor society pin is a key with a delta attached. Pic-tured on the pin are a ship and the symbols for Delta Mu Delta, which translated means "through power, knowledge."

The members of the society area eligible to apply for scho larsh ips ; Jforty are presented by thej national honor society each year, f

Also in October of 1986 the Triennial Conference of this national business honor socie-ty, Delta Mu Delta, is held. For-ty chapters will be chosen to attend, expense free.

Transcripts indicate honors courses BIOL 140 *H

By Betsy Lantz <As spring arrives at Mer-

cyhurst, further attempts are being made to give new life to the Egan Honors Program!

The purpose of the program is to provide super ior academic students with discussion-oriented, seminar-type classes. Usually one Egan course is taken per term.

According to Program Direc-to r Dr. Lewis L u t t o n , "Changes are being made, because we felt there wasn't enough involvement with the Egan Honors Program." f g*.

The most important change in the program is that Honors courses will now be indicated on student transcripts. "We got allot of support for this from the k Registrar's Office and the Computer Center," Dr. Lutton explained.

A p i n * i s fatso be ing developed for all students graduating with Egan Honors. It will bear an inscription of the college name, "Carpe Diem," land "Egafr Honors

Scholar." The student's name and year of graduation will be engraved on the back. I

Dr. Lutton feels that students participating in the Egan Program deserve such recognition forf their efforts. He notes that four to five students will graduate with Egan Honors this year. This is an increase of 100 percent over past years and the junior class looks even better.

An additional change is that Eganization|will be limited to one course per student per year. To Eganize a course, a student must develop an addi-tional project within a non-Honors course.

As the Program Director ex-plains, Eganization is not in keeping with the goals of the program, although it is often necessary due to scheduling difficulties. -I I £

Dr. Lutton is hoping that a schedule, available prior to fall term, which lists the establish-ed Egan courses to be offered throughout the year, will

enable students to overcome many of* these ? scheduling problems. |

He* a l so e n c o u r a g e s students in the program to ex-ploit the -other opt ions available to them when established* Honors courses do not meet their needs.!

Egan scholars may develop seminar-type courses within their areas of interest by work-ing in conjunction with in-terested faculty members. These courses can jthen I;be proposed to the Dean by the Honors Progam Director.

Secondly, Honors students may set up a tutorial, in which five one-hour sessions are set up with a professor in order to discuss! course material in greater detail.?!

"I'm looking for a lot of feed-back from the students," Dr. Lutton said. "The only way we can find out what courses will go is if the students let us know themselves." $j£ I

Egan Honors classes are set up within the foundation, distribution and senior core.

Egan Honor courses will now be Indicated on transcripts by the letter H, following the course number. -"We are also trying to develop ways to have Honors-type ex-periences in the majors," Dr. Lutton explained. "This is the most difficult part."

According to Dr. Lutton, classes in majors such as business and HRM don't lend themselves well to seminar-type courses; however, this should not prevent students in

those areas from participating in the program. Again student ideas are encouraged. %

"It should be an honor to be in the program," Dr. Lutton concludes. "We're still In the test phase. We don't know if our ideas will work or not, but we feel that the students can make them work."

According to Faculty Ad-visor Stephen Curcio, "This is an §xdeTTem?*bpporflinlty nor us, because It shows the type of things we give to Erie pro-gramming that other stations cant offer." f | !

A new aspect of the Pirate broadcasts this year, however, is a trade off''deal between WMCY andtWSEB'IVSS, a local television station. | "I got a hold of WSEE sales and news ̂ director and we worked|out a deal where'we would advertise for them dur-ing Pirate games and, in return, they would advertise our Pirate games on their sta-tion, WMCY Program Director Rick Wendt said.

Wendt looks jforward to a working relationship between the two stations. "I'm glad a TV station in the area took in-terest in us. I hope this will be a good start *for us to work together more in the future," he added.t i \ | ^Unfortunately, not everyone

can hear the Pirate broadcast, Curcio> explained. "We are a carrier-current station with a

cable hook-up with telemedia; only the Mercyhurst communi-ty and Erie county residents receive the broadcast." f

Wendt is happy that the Pirates chose WMCY again to carry the games.illt gives our DJ's a chance \.to work with paid professionals. It's good that the Pirates have faith in us to let us carry them again this year," he added.

There has only been one minor setback this year with the broadcast. The games are transmitted via a phoneline from a Greenville, Penn-sylvania * radio station. The Pirates, however, haven't been able to install the phone line.

"Eventually,* in about five weeks," says Wendt, "we'll have a line installed to Green-ville, but until then we are pay-ing for a phone call down to Greenville."

It is fa bit expensive, but Wendt thinks the cost is necessary. "It's worth it," he said, "because jour audience wants to hear the games."!

WMCY will carry all one hun-dred and sixty-two games.

I Skip a meal to feed millions |

Thursday April 25 may stick out in every Mercyhurst student's mind asjthe day for the John Cafferty concert. But make room on your calendar for another important event to note. One thattcan help 185 million people.;

On this day, 3,500 colleges across the country have been asked to participate in a nationwide effort to raise money fof the starving people of Africa. The idea all got started from an organization called S.A.F.E., Students Against Famine in Ethiopia. S.A.F.E. has been in ex-istence for the past three months and operates from Dart-mouth College. I . The organization is asking ten million college students

to sacrifice their lunch in the cafeteria for the day.gln return, the cafeteria donates $1 for every student who opted to give a little of themself to those who are less fortunate. 1

A 100. participation from ten million college students would provide $10 million^dollars for food, ̂ medical sup-plies, vehicles to transport goods in Africa, train medical and relief personnel and to install long range food produc-tion programs, such as tree planting and backyard gardening. 1

S.A.F.E. believes focusing on one meal and one specific date brings about the idea of unity among the col-leges and universities. Mercyhurst should not neglect this coalition. Dartmouth* Collegers taRiri^^tne time^Tb organize this philanthropic effort, Mercyhurst should make the effort to participate. I

The money collected will be forwarded to one of many support groups aiding the&African countries.-They in-clude: C.A.R.E, The American; Red Cross, Save the Children and Oxfam America. These organizations are reputable and are developing long and short term relief programs that are highly efficient. I

S.A.F.E has developed another means of gathering funds if college cafeterias do not wish to get involved. The simple act of donating a dollar is another alternative which is only to be used If cafeterias are uncooperative or it has too much to lose financially.

A meal in our cafeteria cost $2.50. Not even half of the overall cost of this meal is lost. Students on board pay for their meals, therefore they are granting the cafeteria the right to donate their dollar. What does the cafeteria have to lose? I W | S | * M ' | w

Before you do something for yourself, do something for another. Skip a meal to help feed millions.

A time for a change £j The cancellation of the an-nual Fa ther -Daugh ter Weekend raises many ques-tions; namely, "Isn't it time for a change?" *§ | | 4 f

The event Is rather out-dated. Its origins reflect a very differentsMercyhurst College. The "College on the Hill" has been a CO-ED institution for some fifteen years now.

The mere title of the events alienates 50 percent of the col-lege population, that being the males. Many males have resented this event in the past because it does not include them. k W>

The Weekend also does not take into consideration "that some females are not from traditional ; nuclear f families and that there may! be no "father", per se. | |

Father-Daughter Weekend also isolates another very im-portant group-ltthat being MOTHERS. In past ]years, mothers have attended the scheduled events but have felt like a "third Wheel" because they were not formally invited.

Given all these factors, that leaves a rather small amount of people with the potential of participating in this event. It's no wonder that the event was cancelled.

So, isn't it time for a change? | ^

Learning in Yankee-Land! g After" being asked to write this article for The Merciad , I realty couldn't think of anything to write. But then I thought back to the beginning of fall term when I just started to make friends here at Mercyhurst.

When you first introduce yourself to people, thetmost common question they ask you is "Where are you from?" When I answer "Myrtle Beach, South Carolina" their mouths

Want write pinion?

Forward lumnsrtoi

The Merciad

drop open and the ususal response is "Why did you leave the beach to come to dreary Erie?"

Well, after thinking about it, I came to the conclusion that I came to Mercyhurst because I wanted a change in my lite; new things and new ex-periences. But I wasn't prepared for some of the ex-periences I have had. jg

First of all, I wasn't quite prepared to go out and buy a new winterized warbrobe. But after the middle of September, I found out -that cotton tops and shorts weren't going to cut it here in Erie. j& Another thing I wasn't prepared for was having to walk through snow that goes up to your derriere. Also, after sitting through my first Erie blizzard l|found myself being teased about getting lost in a snow drift. This^came about forj two? reasons, mainly because the drifts were bigger than me and because I have a white winter coat.

g Well,Jsomehow I managed to make it through the very long winter (but just barely).

Last but hot least, I have learned not to believe every thing that people tell you. It s e e m s t h a t t h e u p -perclassmen are forever trying to see what they can get the freshmen to believe.

I should have remembered that lesson from high school but I didn't and thus fell for most of the practical jokes they pulled.

Perhaps the nieest change that: occurred is f the new friends that I have made here. People I probably would never have met had I not come to Mercyhurst. This is the change that I have enjoyed the most.

Still, I can't wait for May 24 to roll around so I can put on my sunglasses and sun on the beach until its time to pack up my bags and come back to Erie next September.

Two shutouts

urst;hurlers humble Knights By Greg Yoko The Mercyhurst baseball

team opened the 1985 regular season with a pair of victories over downtown rival Gannon University as they blanked the Knights in both games of the scheduled doubleheader last Sunday.^ r k

In front of a larger sun-bathing opening day crowd, the Lakers used excellent pit-ching and an opportunistic of-fense to defeat ithe Gannon Gold 2-0 and 1-0. | | ^

Bill Julio began ;his new season in typical fashion. Julio went the entire seven in-nings for the 'Hurst in the opener, allowing just five hits while striking out four. |

The game was scoreless un-til the Mercyhurst half of the fifthirfhingrWIth due outfTed DeSanti reached base on a singlefand advanced further on a wild pitch. Tim Ruth followed with a RBI single as the Lakers took a 1-0 lead.

The 'Hurst added another marker in the sixth without the benefit of a hit. Phil Sorenson

led off the inning with the first of three walks in the frame and scooted home on a wild pitch to give the Blue and? Green their initial win of the season.

The script was very similar in the nightcap. $ b

On the mound for Mer-cyhurst in the second contest was Greg Harayda. His pit-ching was as good, if not bet-ter, than Julio's. In seven Inn-ings, Harayda limited Gannon to just four hits whije sending three Knights back ( to t the bench on strikes. \

The Lakers lone tally came in the sixth. After one out, Al "Chip" Lewis drew a walk and stole second. ^Centerfielder Rick Skonieczka followed with an RBI double to score the gam^wlnner^™ * " ^ ™

Mercyhurst will putt their modest two-game winning streak on the line Thursday when ' t hey hos t P i t t -Johnstown. They will entertain Pitt-Bradford on Saturday. Both are fscheduled as 1:00 doubleheaders.

Laker netters chalk up three wins s

The Men's Tennis Team began a successful week with a big 5-4 victory over .powerful West. Virginia University, the defending Atlantic Ten Cham-pions. This was ̂ followed up with two crucial wins against eastern r ivals over the weekend in Lancaster, PA.

Sa tu rday , the 'Hu rs t defeated Millersvllle State University, 7-2, despite some tense moments. This* was followed up by a 6-3 victory on Sunday' over West Chester State University who is ranked 19th nationally. 5> * ;

Providing wins for the Lakers on both days were Jens Caap, and the doubles pair of Caap and Segun Balogun, Phil

Nykyforuk, Walt Hader, Juan Blazquez, and the $ doubles team of Caap-Balogun. |

Hader and Demuth were vic-torious at the I number two position against Millersvllle. Match spectators were not on-ly entertained by some fine tennis, but by the teams' uni-que style of play. -

The 'Hurst hopes to con-tinue their winning streak when they play Edinboro State University at 3:00 p.m. Thurs-day at it he Lakeshore Country Club.- A Jvan will be leaving from the Campus j Center at 2:30 p.m. > £

Now 5-5

Lady Lakers slug Golden Ladies ?By Greg Yoko

The Lady Lakers' 5-5 record in their first ten games may be deceiving. Mercyhurst played these ten games, f ive doubleheaders, on five con-secutive dates.

They opened the season last Friday at Sippery Rock with a pair of losses, but they finished the feat by disposing of the Lady Gplden Knights of Gannon twice (5-1, 10-3) on Tuesday. *

"I'm very pleased," exclaim-ed Coach Bob Shreve, after sweeping Gannon. "We really didn't get a chance to work outside until our first game at Slippery Rock. Our pitching, namely Lisa DeMichele, Lisa Palotto, and f Katie Dowling, was there at the start. Now, our fielding and offense is really starting to produce." In their first game against Gan-non, the Hurst ladies waited until the sixth inning to put the contest away. | ;

Jeana White started the ral-ly by outrunning an infield hit. SherrytPutnam followed with another infield shot to give the Lakers a pair of base runners.

Coach Bob Shreve's club then executed a double steal to set up a scoring situation. Pitcher Lisa DeMichele then helped her own cause with a single to'the outfield which drove in both White and Putnam. •# - ;-'i

DeMichele,. who advanced to second on a throwito the plate, proceeded to steal third. Patty Strickenberger and Lisa Pailoto each followed with RBI singles to give Mercyhurst a 5-1 win. h I i

The pitching victory went to DeMichele. She allowed just four hits while walking ^three and striking out six. z -nY In the nightcap, the Blue and Green wasted little time.

A trio of runs in the Mer-cyhurst first inning gave the Hurst a lead which they never

After losing the: first four games of the year, a pair to the Rockets (5-0, 8-2) and to Westminster (1-0,jt 7«2)-jj£ and splitting two gamesjwith Du-

quesne, the Lady Lakers now own a four game winning streak. i £

The Blue and Green, behind the four-hit p i tching of DeMichele, captured a 4-1 decision in the opener at Du-quesne, only to lose the se-cond contest by a 4-0 count.

Geneva College proved to be the next victim. The Lady Lakers blasted the Beaver Falls, PA team twice, 14-1 and 16-0.1 W |

The two wins over Gannon allowed ,-Mefcyhurst to even their slate at 5-5, and gain a days' rest before hosting Behrend on Thursday.
