By MARYELLEN MILON Fordham University's Church, a New York City landmark, will be undergoing repairs, on the crumbling stone work at the top of its bell tower, according to Director of Facilities Engineering, Robert Mahan. Most of the stones which form the decorative cap of the bell tower will be taken down, he said. The deteriorated stones will be replaced with matching stone while N OS PEA K the stones remaining in good condition will be coated with a preservative. An architectural firm is preparing the specifications for the repairs which must be ap- proved by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission. Once the plans have been approved, the selection of a construction company will begin. The cost of the renova- tions will be covered by Fordham's Capital Repairs Fund. '..•-.•' According to Mahan, the Church repairs should be completed by the end of the summer,- depending upon the amount of stonework needing to be redone. The bell tower was constructed in 1929 as an addition to the knave built during me 1840s. Some repairs have been made on the bell tower previously in 1976-77.

After speaking with Dr. Heaney, I realized what a large and diverse field parapsychology encompasses. What I hope to do is skim the sur- oooeooeeoeeoooeooe face, giving a broad overview of this fascinating field of study. The paranormal involves knowledge of those things which occur in the present, including clair- voyance and telepathy, and those things that will occur in the future (precognition). Clairvoyance is the ability to tune into ob- jects or events without channeling through someone else's mind, while telepathy involves mindreading. For instance, if someone turns a card over without looking at it, and I guess the right card, I am able to read cards. This is clair- voyance. If the other person looks at the card in his hand and I guess the right card, I may be able to read that person's mind. This is mental telepathy. If I were able to predict the next card to be turned over, I would be foretelling the future. This is precognition. There has been a great deal of evidence pro- duced by lab tests, which are based on fheiaws of probability. There are card tests where peo- ple tell over and over which card will come up. It is not 100 percent accurate, but certain people are able to predict beyond chance ability. This is statistical evidence. There is also anecdotal evidence. For exam- ple, people can predict air crashes in such detail that it is hard to say that it's simply chance that they are able to do this. Of course there are skeptics that find fault with such evidence. There is a whole legion of people who do not believe that there is such a thing as telepathy or clairvoyance or precogni- tion. These skeptics would claim that the experi- ment was not well done, or there has been fraud. There is an organization called CSICOP (the Committee for the Scientific Investigation of the Claims of the Paranormal). It is a large group that attacks parapsychology. Members include people such as Carl Sagan and Isaac Asimov. They begin their investigation with the claims that 6/Thursday, April*!*,

In this case, the habit of performing a task over and over can be put to good, use: a person'could become an accomplished pianist or a successful rock star. - But in other cases, the repeated performance of a certain task can become a bad habit. It could be a habit of forgetting simple things, such as phoning a friend or mailing a letter. It could also be a habit which has more serious implications, such as failing to pay bills on time. We have a fine example of this latter habit right here at Fordham; the guilty party is the Controller's office. And, like all bad habits, this one should be broken. Every organization, department and Administrative office on this campus is affected by the Controller's lack of efficiency. And ironically it seems that lately the office is becoming quite adept at being so inefficient. A main victim: And Justice Foi the student print shop.

All came with one purpose: to honor Marty Glickman, Olym- pic athlete and renowned sportscaster. Glickman gave many on hand their initial break in the business and he is considered the innovator of the way sporting events are broadcast today. And Fordham was responsible for it.

Michael O'Neill

Fordham's Athletic Department and WFUV organized the celebrity roast in celebration' of Glickman's appointment to the WFUV staff. He is the "coach" of the station's sportscasters, criti- quing and advising them after each broadcast. To have a person such as Glickman affiliated with the school and the station is a momentous achievement. If you don't already know, Glickman is the Dean of Sports Broadcasting. The day was a complete success, as one man's talent, career and life were praised. The day began with a small cocktail hour just outside the room where the luncheon was to be. held. Milling about the area, one could see various radio and T.V. personalities sipping drinks and doing what they do best: talking. Red Auerbach and his cigar was in one corner doing a T.V. interview. Bill Mazer, of Channel five fame, was also in attendance. I wanted to talk hoops with Red and tell him the Knicks are go- ing to blow Larry and Co. out of the water in the N.B.A. playoffs. I tried to think of a ques- tion that would stump the "Amazin" in such high company. I was tempted to approach Wellington Mara, owner of the N. Y. Giants and Fordham alumnus (FCO '37) and tell him that the Jets are going to have the stadium renamed and ride the Giants out of New Jersey. But I didn't.

Rams Win Eight Straight

By HENRY HERBERMANN One of baseball's many ageless philosphies reads as such: "good pitching beats good hit- ting. '' Most teams have one aspect or the other, sometimes neither, rarely both. What if a team were to combine these two most important parts of the game, would they be dominating? The Fordham Rams have been playing with just the right blend of pitching and hitting and they have been overpowering opponents of late. Last weekend the Rams swept three games from St. Peters. They outscored the Peacocks over those games bv a combined total of 26-13. On Tuesday the Rams pummelled St. Francis 11-5. Fordham has now won eight straight and holds an overall record of 22-7,8-1 in the MAAC. Head coach Dan Gallagher is quite happy with his team's recent efforts. He is also mildly surprised by the success of the pitching staff. "We have been playing really wein?F-m more satisfied with what this team has done so far," he said. "I honestly did not think the staff would be as good as it is. At the beginning of the year I knew we would swing the bats well but at times I wasn't sure if the pitching would come around, it did though and coach Mike Bruhert deserves the credit. He has taken a young staff and done a great job with them." Freshman Paul LoGuidice was the Rams starting pitcher in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader played at Coffey Field. He pit- ched five strong innings and did not allow an earned run. It eventually counted as LoGuidice's seventh win against no defeats and tied him with Pete Harnisch for the most vic- tories by a freshman at Fordham. Offensively the Rams made sure their young ace had plenty of support right from the first inning. Leadoff hitter Jack Allen walked and stole second. The following batter Mike Anquillare also drew a base on balls and the two Fordham runners promptly stole second and third. Kevin Condon then drove home Allen with a sacrifice fly for the first run of the game. Next up Brad Howland drew yet another walk and after Tom McManus flied out to right, Ray Montgomery was issued another free pass loading the bases for secondbaseman Chris Faicco. Faicco delivered the Rams first hit of the game, a smashing double to left which scored all three runners Two innings later Fordham exploded again. Five singles and two walks contributed to six more runs as the Rams sent ten batters to the plate. Faicco again came through with the big blow, a two run single up the middle scoring McManus and Montgomery. St. Peters did not score until the sixth and seventh innings when the game was already well beyond then- reach. The final: 11-5 Fordham. Junior Paul Darrigo took the mound for Fordham in the second game. Darrigo had an outstanding performance. Hurling the full seven innings of the game, he allowed just three runs iSTfi:•*.... .•._-..,_ ' ••* '.''.••- •!'•- on six hits while striking out seven. Fordham hitters managed to get' six runs across the plate for a 6-3 victory, although their bats were not as loud as they were in the first game. There were still many offensive stars on the day for the Rams. Chris Faicco was three for five with six RBIs over the two games. Jack Allen was a combined six for seven with four RBIs and two stolen bases. Freshman Ray Mon- tgomery, who is the team's leading hitter, was a combined three for five, scoring four runs while driving in two. . Sunday's contest was the closest of the three game series with St. Peters (8-9,2-5 after this game) and being that it was not a doubleheader, went a full regulation nine inn- ings. The speedster Allen opened the game with a walk, advanced to second on a wild pitch, stole third, and scored when the Peacocks cat- cher committed a throwing error. The Rams continued on page 14
