Vol. xxvn SIENA COLLEGE, LOUDONVILLE, N. Y., FEBRUARY 4, 1966 No. 13 Senate Secretary Resigns Armstrong's Decision Announced Monday Mixer Tonight to End Campus Charities Drive This week, January 30 to Fe^bruary 4, is the annual Campus Charities Drive. Conducted under the auspices of the NFCCS Campus Board, the drive this year is directed by Junior Delegate Roger Markovics, Associate Delegate Timothy Banjo, and Senior Representative Charles Yanni. The drive is the sole charity drive made during the school year on the Siena campiis, and all charities at Siena operate through the functions of Campus Charities. Essentially, Campus Charities is organized in the same manner as a Community Chest is on a municipal level. Any organization or cause can apply for funds from Campus Charities through the Campus Board, but must present sufficient proof of their worthiness and merit. The Campus Board then decides whether or not the organization is deserving of aid from Campus Char¬ ities and allocates money accord¬ ingly. In both evaluating the organiza¬ tions that apply for aid and in dis¬ tributing the money, the Campus Board emphasizes student aid through fellow students. Important recipients are such organizations as the Big Brothers, which receives money for some of its activities, the Arbor Hill Community Project, which is also partly financed in its work projects in the South End, fuid the Third Order, for its orphans party. Thus Campus Charities is wholly a student organization, both spon¬ sored and administered by Siena students. It is the chief one by which Siena students are able to help others less privileged than our¬ selves. In a sense, this is a very real way in which we, as students, can practice the Christian commit¬ ment that is so often merely preached, especially for those who are unable to involve themselves personally as deeply as they might wish. A goal of $700 is set with a dollar being asked from each student. In the dorms charity officials are con¬ ducting the drive on each wing, with a trophy to be awarded to the wing — Notices — Beginning February 6, the College Library will be open on Sundays from 1:00 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. * * * The Barrister's Club will hold a meeting in room 213 during the free period on Tuesday, February 8. The purpose of the meeting is to arrange interviews for admission to Law School. donating the most money. In the Pit, charity officials are conducting the drive and maintaining a table for Campus Charities during free periods. At the Mixer concluding the drive, two tickets to the Dave Brubeck Concert will be given as a door prize from a drawing from the charity receipts. This year the annual Campus Charities Mixer is being held Feb¬ ruary 4th, 8:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m., at the Crystal Room of the DeWitt Clinton Hotel, which has generous¬ ly donated the room free of cost for the evening. There will be a bar available as well as free pizza, with all the area schools invited. There will be continuous music from two bands, the Kavoodamen and the Clowns, both of which are donating their services for the night for charity. A donation of one dol¬ lar is asked, also to go to the Charity Drive. John Armstrong Drive on for Paperbacks For Forces in Viet Nam The spring semester is just barely under way and many of us are fighting that same old prob¬ lem of shelf space for the new flock of required readings. A way to solve this problem of inner space and at the same time do a big favor for some fellow Americans is about to present itself. "There's not much time to relax," Capt. Paul R. Riley, Jr. of Troy has written to his wife, "but when we do get a little time, we need some¬ thing to read. We need it desper¬ ately." Capt. Riley, a career man in the Army is serving with the First Cavalry Air Mobile division now at An Khe, Viet Nam. His wife, Beverly, eight year old daughter, Maureen and son, Kevin, seven months, are living in Albany. The Captain has been in Southeast Asia since September. "There are a hundred men in my battery and very few books. Reading material of any kind is very scarce. All of us want good, interesting books, not trash, but novels, biogra¬ phies, good westerns and mysteries." ROTC Product Captain Riley is a 1958 graduate of Siena and a product of the ROTC program here. NFCCS is sponsor¬ ing the drive and Major Fisher has promised to aid in finding trans¬ portation for the books to Viet Nam. There are obviously many of us with books sitting around which we will never pick up to read again, and this is a cause which will put these paperbacks to good use. The novels will help to pass the free time of our G.I.'s over there and give them a small bit of enjoy¬ ment. The drive will be put into full swing in the coming week and boxes will be placed around the dorms IS THIS YOUR ROOM? If it is, possibly you can help some of our American GI's in Viet Nam, who would like you to share with them any paperbacks which you will not be using. Will you help? and in the pit in order that the students may deposit their contri¬ butions. There will also be boxes of Ql and Q2 and also in the lobby in Siena Hall. Mike Williams, the chairman of the drive has said, "It's a pretty small thing we're trying to do, hard¬ ly more than a gesture, but we have, as I see it, no other choice than to do what we can for Captain Riley and all the others." He then added that "the only limit on the number of paperbacks that can be sent is how many books Sienamen are wiU¬ ing to part with to make someone else's life a little brighter." Any questions conceming the drive can be answered by contact¬ ing Mike in the bookstore or by calling 436-4953. Senate President John Botticelli announced the resignation of John Armstrong as Secretary of the Siena College Student Senate at the last meeting of that body. Botticelli read the statement from a letter subnutted to him by the former secretary. A junior hailing from Amsterdam, Jack is a History major and a mem¬ ber of the History and German Clubs. He was elected in the spring and has served in his position since September. Personal Reasons In the letter, Armstrong stated that he was reluctantly forced to make his move because of "personal reasons" which have arisen. Jack will remain as the delegate from Siena to the Intercollegiate Council however. Jack expressed a realization of the "tremendous value of Student Gov¬ emment, which was, to be sure, most clearly demonstrated in recent weeks." His decision was not an easy one to make, "but I fully real¬ ize in view of many circumstances that it is a necessary one." Mr. Armstrong continued that it is with "the best of intentions and with a clear conscience" that he haS' made his decision and in his letter to President Botticelli expressed his "hope and confidence that the Sen¬ ate will continue the vital work it has begun for the betterment of the Siena community." Election Announced President Jack Routledge of the Class of '66 has announced that the election to fill the office vacated by Mr. Armstrong will be held on Fri¬ day, February 18. All petitions of candidates will be due in the Senate office by February 9. To be eligible for the office of secretary of the Senate, one must be a Junior who has accumulated 64 credits and has maintained a cumulative index of 1.2. All members of the student body are eligible to vote in this election. Indian Changes Hands at Annual Banquet Tomorrow Tomorrow night, the Indian will hold its Annual Banquet at the Tom Sawyer Motor Inn in Albany. A Cocktail Hour will precede the dinner which will begin at 8:00 p.m. A large number of staff members are expected to bring dates to this affair which will witness the formal changing of the editorial reins. Frank Murray will succeed Irv Stephens as Editor-in-Chief. Bill Waycie is also retiring from his post as Assistant Editor, giving way to Bill McGoldrick and Carmen Cog¬ netta. Nick Schmitt will take over the Feature Editorship vacated by Murray, while Bill Tuttle will suc¬ ceed Cognetta as News Editor. Acceptances have been received from several members of the lay faculty who were invited. Several friars have also indicated that they will attend, among them Fr. Howard, Dean of Men. Guest speaker will be John Maguire, a columnist for the Albany Times-Union. He will speak on newspaper work as he has known it over the past years, prob¬ ably spicing his talk with some in¬ teresting anecdotes.
