Next: Oct. 28 at Bates... 11 a.m. That is not to say that his former boothmates, Al DeAngelo and Mark Flaherty, along with Rocca's re- Oct. 30 vs. Thomas,..2 p.m. placement Todd Alexander, did not do a good job. They were informative, funny, and made what was essentially a bad game come off pretty well. Not bad for their first time in the booth without their mentor Rocca. MEN'S CROSS COUNTRY : ranked 3rd But this docs not justify the treatment Rocca received from WMHB executives. No one familiar with in New England Div, III sports at Colby can deny that Larry Rocca has made significant contributions to the campus' sports scene. Oct. 21 finished 2nd last weekend Beyond the broadcast booth, he has served as Echo sports editor and studerit coordinator of the 1-PLAY system. At WMHB, Rocca was the Sports Director, theco-host ofthe sports talk show, Sports rap (which was at Maine State Meet at Bowdoin canceled at the beginning of this year), and the founder of Colby and football broadcasts.

According to Director of Student Activities John SEASON COMPLETE Farkas, this resulted in complaints and could have put the station in jeopardy of an FCC investigation. Though Rocca was warned about his on-th_-aii: decorum (though he never received a written warning), the "offensive" comments continued- according to Farkas. "The station was afraid of what he'd say on the FIELD HOCKEY: 4-3 air," he said.

"What is said on the air matters to a lot of other people too, not just Colby students/' said Farkas. "You can' t forget that those Oct. 24 at Bowdoin people are out there." Oct. 27 at Wesleyan...3 p.m. If this is true, then one must question the overall purpose of WMHB. While it is important to serve the community, WMHB is (or at least supposed to be) a student radio station. Shouldn't itspurpose be to serve the listening needs and wants of Colby students first and foremost? After all, it's our money that pays for WOMEN'S SOCCER: 6-2-3 their bud get, the largest of any club on campus.
