14 HAVERFORD / Winter 1988 '88 all earned first team All-MAC honors for the Fords. This was Kelly's third appearance in the post-season honors list, Antoniuk's second and Nelson's first. Nelson led the MAC in scoring this year with 11 goals and 18 assists, while Kelly notched 12 goals and 8 assists. Antoniuk added 6 goals and 7 assists while teaming with Max McClellan '88 to anchor the Ford backline. Several promising freshmen and sophomores received considerable playing time this year and look to be the heart of the program for the next few years. Ted Burnett '90 scored five goals and four assists, while Rob Shaker '91 contributed five goals and three assists from the wing midfield spot. Keeper Tom Boogaard '91, sweeper Toby Rodes '91 and outside back Jonathan Wren '91 keyed a defense that posted eight shutouts. Ellen Braithwaite (left) and Bridget Rodriguez are two of the freshmen making up a strong offense Despite fielding a side with only one senior, the women's soccer team finished close to .500 with a 7-9-1 record. Highlighting the last half of the season for the Fords were wins over conference rivals Dickinson and Swarthmore. Four Haverford players finished among the top ten scorers in the MAC: Annemiek Broekman '90 (2nd), Ellen Braithwaite '91 (5th), Laura Miller '91 (7th) and Amy Furr '90 (9th).

According to Nelson, before the sounds of the Klansmen's shots Aho`h echoed through Ardmore, a black te. Pro.. World War I veteran named Rogers ran up the hill to the crossburning. Nelson claimed it was this man, and not Francis Roy who was shot and killed. Newspaper coverage of the shooting and trial of the three Klan members mention only the shooting of Miller and Roy and Roy's subsequent death; no black World War I veteran named Rogers is noted as being at the scene at all.

Nelson's story of the incident also contradicted the newspapers' ver- Wals10 rue' sion of what prompted the the crossburning. According to Nelson and C.W. Vance, a friend of Nelson's who was also playing in the street that night, the crossburning occurred as a result of an affair in Ardmore between a black man and white woman. The newspapers' version makes no mention of this possibility; the important question of what instigated on the burning is given only cursory attention.

Apparently, Roy and Miller assumed that the two men they saw as they approached the burning cross were lingering Klan members. Given the high tension between the North- ern Klan and Irish-Catholics at the time, the language Roy used in calling out to the two alleged KKK members was probably more colorful than what was printed in the paper; but by all accounts, he did not identify himself as a police officer.

With the awakening of Islamic fundamentalism throughout the Muslim world, interest in Islamic tradition has grown both in academic as well as non-academic circles. Unfortunately, the process of explaining the phenomenon of this religious resurgence to the modern, secularly educated audience has not only been distorted by the passion which Muslims understandably feel for the subject but also by the vested interest that other non-Muslim groups have in interpreting the Islamic faith.

Islamic VisionPerhaps, the most damaging misinterpretations A 'Fundamentalist' Venture?. have occurred in the journalistic treatment of Is- lamic subjects when the intellectual caution of academic judgment has given way to misinforma- tion. Although undoubtedly, "fundamentalist" or "fundamentalism" are terms inherited from Chris- tian religious experience signifying reaction to rational re-interpretations of a particular faith's revelational authority, "fundamentalism", in the Islamic context refers most particularly to political manifestations of religious thought originating in the 1920's. Islamic fundamentalism, today, draws inspiration from the notion of a pristine Is- lam and advocates its revival as a religion in perfect harmony with both modern humanism and rational- ism. Moreover, although Islamic fundamentalism is represented by both con- servative and revolutionary trends, the basic goal of the religious revival remains the same: namely, the establishment of an ideal public order based on Islamic norms and values. Indeed, this simple idealism is the aspiration of the majority of Muslims who adhere to the "fundamentalist" vision of Islam. The failures to appreci- ate the comprehensive nature of the Islamic faith with respect to the religious, as well as secular spheres of human life, has been until now the greatest impediment to a more accurate analysis of Muslim societies around the globe. Conse- quently, despite the enormous body of contempo-

ELLEN DAWSON rary work on Islam, the task of understanding Islam as it is lived by the majority of Muslims has become even more difficult. In the following pages I have tried to expound upon one particular theme in the teachings of Is- lam, namely, the creation of an ethically just public order as an objective entailment of the Islamic faith. The creation of such a public order is not only the aspiration of Muslims around the globe; it is a vision shared by all those human beings 24 HAVERFORD / Winter 1988 whoa are struggling Just to improve their socio-politi- Societits moral-spiritual health.

32 HAVERFORD / Winter 1988 "reform," had tens of thousands of dedicated adherents drawn to our focus on public education, human services and open government, and the excitement of an interracial ticket. I hope it is not too self important to say that we were involved in a cause that carried with it great responsibility and, in a campaign against Balti- more's popular mayor, high political risks. For Sheila and me, sharing this kind of undertaking with our children was a substantial change in our relationship with them. Other families undoubtedly have similar experiences in other ways. But in the Sachs family we do not climb mountains, or ski, or camp, or sail; indeed, except for travel, we have never done much of anything that involved sharing an enterprise, especially a risky one, as a family. We are extraordinarily close, but, for the most part, we merely talk a lot and laugh a lot and then talk some more— a non-stop family talk show. But here we were involved in the political equivalent of Outward Bound. It was a venture, as a family, in which we were partners. We took risks together and helped one another and counted on each other. What I felt then and still feel today was the exhilaration of sharing a bold adventure with our children. It was something like the camaraderie of a ship's company, or the cast of a play or the special bond among combat veterans. One of the things that keeps a candidate going in the face of long odds in the need to keep faith with loyal supporters who have given so much to the candidate and the cause. For me, as the summer of '86 wore on, "the kids" and their dedication was Photograph of the Sachs family all the life I needed to get going, and taken by Washington Post pho- it was they whose judgment I came tographer for a profile during to value most.
