So, aboutfifteen of us showed up at thegym around 8:00 p.m. to playbasketball and practice for the jupcoming intramural season.But we could not play becausea certain group of people whoDO NOT attend this collegewere there.Upon inquiry, we found^outthat the Prep gymnasium wasempty,?and that the teamwanted to practice at the Cam-pus Center because they playa few games there during theregular season.

I am stating thetime because at this precisemoment about a dozenfotherstudents and I should be play-ing in the intramural volleybalfinals. Yet, as is quite evidentwe are not playing tonight.There are a couple of thingsthat upset me about not play-ing tonight. The first is, beingthe team captain I should havebeen informed during the daythat the game was beingcancelled for tonight. Instead,my fellow team members and Ishowed up at the CampusCenter at 8 p.m. to find a noteon the door saying the game iscancelled until Tuesday. Itreally iwould not have beenvery difficult for the person in

charge ito have phoned Then I would have been abinform my team.The second problem Iwith the game being posted is the reason why it postponed. That being Mercyhurst Prep boys baball team was having prain \ OUR *gym. My feetoward them having priorithe Campus Center overMercyhurst College commty is qu ite negative.

If-you could change Santa . ..By Laura Ruby -6-1- | ' f J fiAlthough there are manyways to depict Christmas, oneof the most representative pic-tures of Christmas is SantaClaus. The thought of SantaClaus brings to mind the tradi-tional picture: a red suit withwhite trim, black boots, a biground belly, a white beard,rosy cheeks and a sack of toysflung over the shoulder.But what if Santa Clausdidn't look like the traditionalSanta we've come to know? Ifhe could be changed in anyway, what would the "ideal"Santa Claus be? At Mer-cyhurst, the ideal picture ofSanta Claus seems to differ. ;':-

f- Junior Noni Hess said shewould like to see Santa Claus"represent something * lesssecular so not to detract fromt h e t r u e m e a n i n g ! o fChristmas." * ^

Senior. Jim Leneghan feltSanta Claus could stand tolosefa little of thefbelly. Hesaid, "Santa Claus should beskinnier so the reindeer don'thave to carry all the weight."Junior Beth Maitland wantsher Santa Claus to be a "6 ' 3",200 pound Italian Santa Clausdriving a pink Cadillac."Townhouse One feels thatthe ideal Santa Claus is"38-24-34." Along the samel ines , sophomore JamesBenusa would like his idealSanta Claus to Ibe approx-imately 5' 6" with blonde hair.jSenior Jean Monieski wentfor a drastic change. She said,"I think Santa should changethe beard to a goatee and go tomore of a mohawk and an earr-ing in his left ear." Other thanthat she likes Santa becausehe gives "great big, fwarmhugs." I j ISenior Pat Songer wants

Santa to be thin and tanned.He said, "he can* keep hiswhite beard and the funky redsuit if he wants to."Finally, *sophomore LoriShrieber, a big Santa Clausfan, said, "I wouldn't change athing. If he was changed, hewouldn't be Santa Claus."Whatever J the ideal SantaClaus is, there is one aspectabout Santa that will alwaysremain. Santa represents thewarmth and togetherness dur-ing the Cristmas season. 1For many years to come,Santa Claus will bring millionsof sm iles to the faces of manychildren. Santa Claus hasmagically captured the heartsof children more than anyother myth or reality in history.Whether fat or skinny, shortor tall, male or female, SantaClaus is a representation oflove...and |that can never bechanged.
