D Please see FIGHT page 3 By Rick Peltz Staff Reporter The Executive Comrnitte-elect voted informally Wednesday night against opening deliberations on com- mittee appointments to the public. EC Vice President-elect Raymond Welder, presiding while EC President- elect Thompson Hatcher is abroad, voted in favor of the motion to open deliberations. Hatcher and Welder ran for office last term on platforms of more open- ness in EC affairs. Welder explained Wednesday night that EC members should be held accountable for their decisions, since they are elected representatives. The other EC members-elect voted as follows on the motion to open deliberations: Dumas, Fialcowitz, Perkins, and Spurgeon all voted in favor. Cobb, Kelsey, Kennington, MacFarland, Wight, and Sophomore Class President-elect Richard Burke, sitting in for Ogden, all voted against the motion. Welder decided Tuesday night to close the interviews for appointments, despite a statement Monday night that he would open them. “I think [a Ring-tum Phi report- er] should be here,” he said Monday, noting that it might be helpful for future applicants to refer to the Phi in preparation foyr their interviews. However, after Tuesday's inter- views, Welder said that some can- didates would not have been able to be as open as they were with the EC in their interviews had a reporter or observers been present. “Nobody elected the people who wanted to be part of these commit- tees to be in the hot seat,” said Welder Tuesday. However, he said he believes EC members are account- able to students, and so deliberations should be open. Walter Scott, secretary of the Constitutional Revisions Committee. said the committee is now consider- ing whether or not the EC should be allowed to enter executive session for proceedings other than honor-related Atkins condemns alcohol spending By Jason Kelley Senior Copy Editor Saying, “It's time to grow up, guys,” Associate Dean of Students Leroy “Buddy” Atkins Tuesday night decried the reported use of fraternity house funds to purchase alcohol. “If you don't suck it up and tell people that it’s BYOB, you’re going to end up with paid security at the door, and no one who is not of drinking age will be admitted into the house,” Atkins said at an Interfrater- nity Council meeting. Atkins said fraternities that buy alcohol with house funds are putting ordinance in any way. Clarification An article in last week’s issue of The Ring-tum Phi attempted to explain the purpose of the city of Lexington’s massage parlor ordinance. In that explana- tion, the Phi did not intend to imply that the subject of the article, Lindy Felix, would be affected by this themselves at risk for possible law- suits. “The minute you do that, you're going naked — without any ir1sur- ance whatsoever. If I see kegs at your houses, I’ll call your national. And if the national fraternity yanks your charter, the university will end it’s recognition of your house, and then it’s bye-bye.” IFC President Goodloe Lewis said fraternities are in a bad position right now because they want to continue holding fall rush and need to behave well to do so. “The administration is watching your every move, and if you screw up, it may even affect your Renais- sance standing,” said Lewis, referring By Jay Plotkln Sports Editor Goodloe Lewis ...new IFC President to the $10 million plan to renovate the school’s fraternity houses.

No one applied for Financial Relations Committee Chairman, SAB Law School publicity director, or FD vice chairman. ’ “The EC has the prerogative,” said Welder, to keep a position open until next fall if no one applies for it. Welder also said that Hatcher instructed that the EC-elect not ap- point someone to a position for which they did not apply. In Monday night's regular EC meeting, White Book Revisions Com- mittee Chairman Claude Worrell told the EC that the committee has split into three groups to study the philo- sophy, closed hearing, and open hear- ing sections of the White Book. Worrell said that the committee will work through the summer hopes to finish it’s work by December. CRC revisions tabled By James Lake Staff Reporter Proposed revisions to the policies of the Confidential Review Commit- tee won’t be adopted until next fall at the earliest, Washington and Lee President John Wilson said Tuesday. The suggested changes, which would alter W&L's definitions of harassment and modify the process of appealing convictions, were approved by the CRC in December and have been in Wilson's hands since January. But the president, who must ap- prove the changes for them to take effect, has yet to act on them and says further study is needed, includ- ing discussion of how the CRC’s guidelines affect free speech rights. “I don't want to go by a CRC review without touching on [that] larger question,” he said. Wilson called the proposed ,k changes “technical" and said the broader issues he wants considered have not been a part of the recent study of CRC policies. Wilson said he wants under- graduate and law faculty to discuss how the CRC’s guidelines can be written so that they forbid harass- ment without discouraging other kinds of speech. But he said he doesn't think any formal discussion of that question will take place until the fall. The CRC, a committee of three students and four faculty members that investigates claims of sexual, racial, ethnic or religious harassment of students, met on Nov. 28 with Dean of Students Lewis John. That meeting led to the proposals that are now before the president. As The Ring-tum Phi reported on Nov. 30, the proposed changes would turn the focus of the CRC’s guide- lines away from claims of faculty and staff harassment of students and more toward keeping students from harass- ing each other. For example, existing rules say racial and ethnic harassment “include, but are not restricted to, actions that use ethnic, racial and religious char- acteristics as a basis for discrimina- tion against an individual in any course, program or activity.” But the proposed guidelines say “ethnic, religious, racial and sexual D Please see CRC page 3 The Phi deeply regrets the confusion. Correction An ticle in last week’s Ring-tum Phi incorrectly stated the status of plans for sorority houses at Wash- ington and Lee. According to Panhellenic Housing Chairman Laurel Ann Heiskell, site plans have been drawn up describ- ing possible locations for sorority houses, but blue prints do not yet exist. W&L will not begin serious consideration of building the houses before 1992, and construction will not begin for at least five years. “There are no definite plans, and there will not be any defninite plans for many years,” Heiskell said. The Phi regrets the errors. “The Lee-Jackson Lacrosse Clas- sic is the brainchild of Lexington City Manager Joe King,” said Rock- bridge Area Recreation Association spokesman Doug Chase. “It involves a cooperative effort from the Lexing- ton Community, Washington and Lee University and Virginia Military Institute and the Lexington Downtown Development Association. ’ ’ The idea behind the classic is to strengthen ties between the Lexington community and the two colleges. For the past two weeks, both W&L and VMI and the city of Lexington have strived to make an effort to become closer together. One benefit of the classic, says Chase, is teaching area youth about lacrosse. Coaches and players from both W&L and VMI along with Chad had dinner together. At the dinner, the players from both teams were seated together in a effort to strength- en the relationships between the teams. On Wednesday, both institu- tions and the city had a cocktail party held in the Morris House. “The evening functions give the players an opportunity to know each other in a non-lacrosse setting,” said Chase. The game is about more than just lacrosse. “It is an honest effort by the City of Lexington to reach out,” said Chase. Said Bartlett, “I'm thankful to everyone involved in the game -— the schools, RARO, the city, everyone who has put forth the effort they've all put forth to make this thing possi- ble. It's agreat way to end a sea- son, for everyone.” Where are the horses? W&L students enjoy life in the infield at the Foxfield Races, held last Saturday afternoon outside of Charlottesville.

Everyone should go. In the past, W&L lacrosse has been measured by its success in the postseason tournament. Although the team has only an outside chance to make the eight- team field this year, that should in no way dampen what has been a remarkable turnaround. As most of us are depressingly aware, W&L lacrosse had fallen on hard times. The team's record for the previous two seasons was 6-20. Ouch. Since the arrival of new head coach Jim Stagnitta, however, that has changed. This year, the team is 8-4 with one game remaining, and has a chance to return to the NCAA tournament. In one season, W&L can return W&L to its rightful status, as one of the premier Division III lacrosse programs in the country. There are lots of reasons to go to the game this weekend. First, W&L has to win this game to have any shot at the tournament. Second, watching VMI get humiliated is always a good way to start a weekend. Third, Coach Stagnitta and his players have earned our respect and support this season, regardless of what happens this weekend or in the tournament. The best way we can show that is to be there Saturday. Some ‘new ideas’ on college life “Alcohol, drug abuse, crime and bigotry are breaking down the social and intellectual fabric at many college campuses.” So says The Associated Press in summarizing a recent study by the Carnegie Foundation and. the American Council on Education. The report claims incidences of crime, sexual harrasnient and alcohol abuse have increased steadily in the past five years, and that college life has suffered accordingly. According to the AP, two-thirds of the 382 college presidents surveyed for the report said alcohol abuse is at least a “moderate” problem on their campuses. Some 43, percent, said crime had increased on their caInpIi‘§e$ in .re9entI And .slisbtly. :n10m:;than half said, the’ [quality of campus life is ‘ of greater concern than it was a few years ago. What is the answer to all of this? Apparently, not more rules and more deans. The college presidents said they don't want to reinstate strict rules of behavior in response to these apparent problems. “The goal is not to have a list of unenforceable commandments. Rather it is to asstue that all parts of college life are governed by high standards,” the study says. “An educated person, while always searching, is always guided by civility and integrity.” To us, that sounds an awful like what Gen. Robert E. Lee said a long time ago. Wasn't it something about expecting students to behave like gentlemen? Maybe these guys are onto something.

In a note accompanying the column, John- son wrote, "The recent visit to the campus by Oliver North brought to mind an earlier appearance — nearly ten years ago — by another convicted felon, namely G.

Gordon Liddy explains tlnt this is an honor- ary decoration front the New York police department, normally given to policemen who have performed acts of exceptional courage but awarded to him because the police like him. This is the first of many ironies about Liddy; for his fame rests on his criminal record. He was convicted of complicity in the 1972 Watergate break-ins and served four and a half years in prison Four nights a week, on average, he visits a university and talks for two hours about the Watergate affair and his broad philosophy. He charges $3,600 for each appearance and draws capacity audiences. With no trace of remorse, he tells students that Watergate was a sirriple act of political intelligeriee—gathering of which there had been plenty be- fore; that there were irregularities in histrialandthejudgealteredthe record; andthathisvictimizationis a symbol of America's present deca- dence. The students cheer him to the echo. Last week Liddy took hirriself and his message to Washington and Lee University in Lexington, Virginia. To be fair to American students in geri- eral. I must point out that this is far fromatypicalcampusltisoneof the most conservative in America, and proud of it. At a reception for Liddy before his speech, I asked some students how that conservatism manifested itself. “There's an underlying racism here." said Doug Shipman, who is studying politics. Of a student body of 1,400, perhaps 40 are black. It is also one of the only three all-male universities remaining in the United States — the exclusion of women being a symptom of con- servatism rather than a cause of it. At the reception, Liddy sipped sweet sherry from a brandy glass and told of the treats he had in store for us at the lecture. No holds, he as- sured us, would be barred. The students, most in blue blazers and grey flannels, eagerly fed him ammunition. Would he like to sum “It’s a shame that people who have done such despicable things should be lauded. It's a case in point that evil does pay off." Meanwhile, the talk in Liddy's group was turning to one of his fa- vorite subjects, assassination. Asked about the murder in London of a Bulgarian emigre with the poisoned tip of an umbrella, he said sagely: “We have our ways and they have theirs” before launching into a de- tailed explanation of how the poison worked. “You don't assassinate people as an act of revenge," he mused. ‘‘It’s a preventive thing... if Jane Fonda up the Carter administration in one word? “Hopeless.” Had the Watergate experience changed him spiritually? “No. it con- firmed my world view. The big fish always eat up the little fish." Most students loved it, but there were dissenters. Though no women are formally enrolled, six are on an exchange program from a nearby women's college. One of them, Laura , O'Hear, said: had done in the Second World War what she did in the Vietnam War, she would have been shot or electro- cuted. It has been documented how Liddy, at one stage in his career, recorrunended the assassination of Jack Anderson, an investigative jour- nalist, but was over-ruled by higher authority. Another candidate for elirn- ination whom he mentioned was Philip Agee, who wrote an embar- rassing book about the Central Intellii gence Agency. ; “Would you do it yourself?" he“ was asked “Like swatting a fly," he answered. ‘ The hall was overflowing by thé time Liddy came to speak. In this» term’s two previous iectures, by respectable but dull senators from the! two major parties, there was an em-‘‘ barrassing expanse of empty space. Not tonight. Students in T-shirtsi and sweaters spread into the aisles. and packed the gallery. Their ap-" plause was as loud and insistent as,v. machine-gun fire as Liddy strode on to the stage. t “Everything seems to be going wrong for us at home and abroad," he began. “Americans tend to live at life of illusion. Either they are unable to comprehend reality or they tend to‘ turn away from it, hoping it will go’ I . away." This retreat from reality, he said,i. wasreflectedinthegrowinguseof euphemisrns. “If you fossilize lani guage you fossilize thought. You can't buy a used car any more - orily a previously owned one.

Before Washington and Lee can apply for a building permit and start the renovation of the fraternities, the Planning Commission and the Archi- tectural Board must approve the site plans which were submitted by W&L this Monday. King said the plans must meet two sets of standards before con- struction will be allowed. “First, the Planning Commission primarily looks at aspects of the site to see if they meet requirements for things like adequate drainage, street access and the relationship of the building to utility lines,” King said. King said the Planning Commis- sion should approve the site plans easily, since the houses are not being built, only renovated The plans will also be presented to the Architectural Review Board, which must review all building plans involving the Lexington Historic Dist.rict. “In any historic area, you must get permission to do anything to an existing structure. That includes the color of the paint, fixtures that are added on the outside of a building, like shutters, or repairs to the roo ,” King said. Once the Planning Commission and the Architectural Review Board consider the plans, they must be sub- mitted to council for approval. King said he thought the plans would go before Council at their meeting May 17. The university can then apply for a building permit and start commotion on Red Square. According to King, Washington and Lee has already recieved a build- ing permit for the SAE house on IFC from page 1 Threatening possible social proba- tion, Lewis said, “I don't want to, but I’m gonna dick you over if the alumni mess up your house.” Atkins agreed. “The alumni are only in your house as your guests. If they get out of hand, ask them to leave. If they won't, you should call the police." Also, Atkins complained that he felt an editorial in last week’s edition of The Ring—tum Phi presented the wrong image of W&L. Saying he is opposed to having a spring term, he said telling the world that students do little studying during spring term reflects badly on W&L. Lewis and Atkins said that turnout at last Saturday's IFC leadership con- ference was disappointing. Represen- tatives from six houses were on hand to hear presentations on risk manage- ,ment, financial responsibility and leadership. “The turnout made the fraternity system look bad. It made y’all look bad, and it made Buddy and I look ba ,” said Lewis. Atkins said that the Alumni Frat- ernity Council, which sponsored the event, was trying to create a forum in which fraternity leaders could talk back and give input to the alumni. “When no one shows up to an event like this because it conflicts with their social schedule, that looks ba ,” said Atkins. Atkins relayed a message from university President John Wilson about vandalism on Lee Avenue. A resident had written the school last year complaining that party-goers were vandalizing cars parked on the street. In a letter received by Wilson last week, the resident said that there had been no incidents of vandalism in the past seven months, and he thanked the houses for keeping things under control, according to Atkins.

The crowd was outside when the police arrived When Coffey tried to disperse them, the crowd attacked him, according to Murray. “All of the sudden, two or three of them jumped him and dragged him all the way across the street and under the front end of a parked car, where they were beating him,” said ‘ Murray, who had gone outside to assist the officers in dispersing the crowd. .

Miller began chasing one of the attackers down Lee Avenue and a group of about 20 people began to chase him. After the police began to gain control of the situation, the crowd moved down Washington Street to the front of Lloyd’s. Police requested Lloyd's to close for the evening, and it reopened at 6 a.m. A Lexington resident who wit- nessed the event said that things grew totally out of proportion. “The law couldn’t seem to get nothing accomplished. It should have been only one fight. Some of the people I lmew couldn't afford to be in any more trouble with the law, so I tried to tell them it was stupid," he said. Lang said he heard the man de- nouncing the black-on—black violence to the crowd. “It just wasn't worth going to jail for,” the man said. The Ring-tum Phl, May 3, 1990 j Council to consider housing plans Washington Street and is authorized to begin commotion at any time. King said the Planning Commis- sion has voted to table its proposal for new zoning regulations, which were supposed to be submitted for approval by Council this week and would go into effect July 1. The proposed rules would allow only three noise or litter violations annually for single family dwellings housing more than four unrelated people. If the occupants were convicted of more than three violations, they could lose their conditional use permit. In such a case, any additional tenants would have to move out. The Plarming Commission decided to delay the implementation of the regulation when it discovered that buildings requiring a permit to house more than four unrelated people had not been adequately inspected. “The inspection of the houses was inadequate and the requirements were not fully met," said King. “The Planning Commission tabled all appli- cations for the conditional use permits and will bring a recommendation to Council when the inspections are properly conducted.” King said the conditional use permit is granted if a structure meets certain criteria, including health and safety requirements. City council has set a July 1 deadline for landlords to apply for a conditional use permit. King said structures like frater- nity houses and dormitories are zoned like apartment buildings, and the new zoning regulations would not apply. Two new members of Council were elected Tuesday and will take office in July. According to The News Gazette, they are Patrick Mayerchak, political science professor at Virginia Military Institute, and Timothy Gold- en, VMI’s director of financial aid.

Garliss then was the ber1eiir;iary of an outstanding team play in behind the H-SC net. As Mastrogiovanru had ceoff in Sunday's... lacrosse game air: defeat the Tigers 14-10 on trouble picking up a loose ball, senior dcfensernan Mike lwlunan leveled the H-SC defensernan and Mastrogiovanni was able to gain control. Mastic- giov:mn,i headed to the goal and hit Garliss, who scored on a textbook two on one break. “Mike [Ntuian] has been probably our most consistent defensive player ders this year,” said Stagnitta. “Mike is also very aggressive, and that’s just the way he is. He makes some big hits‘. but he also gets out of position because of his aggressiveness. With Mike, you just have to accept that.” W&L led 7-3 after the first quar- ter, but H-SC cut the lead to 7-4 to start the second period. With 8:00 left in the half, junior attackman Mike Moseman and Mastrogiovanni worked another perfect two-on-one break. As he was slashed on the head, Mose- man was able to thread the needle with a pass to Mastrogiovanni on the run, and Mastrogiovanni was able to beat Redd under the crossbar to give W&L an 8-4 lead. After another H-SC goal, W&L went on the extra-man offense. The Generals worked the ball behind to Moseman. As two cutters went to the net, Moseman fed Garliss 15-yards out, and, with 1:02 left in the half, his shot beat Redd for his third goal of the day to give W&L a 9-5 half- time lead. In the third quarter, with Tripp Heilig in goal, the Tigers cut the W&L lead to 11-9 with 1:06 to play. But just 12 seconds later, Roberts had the answer, off a feed from Garliss, for his third goal of the day and pushed the lead back to 12-9 to start the fourth quarter. Jones then put the game out of reach with two fourth-quarter goals, both unassisted, to give the Generals a 14-9 lead.

Track teams fare well in ODAC meets By John Neumann Staff Reporter In Saturday’s Old Dominion Ath- letic Conference championships, the Washington and Lee women’s track team captured the unofficial crown behind Beth Stutzrnann while Wes Boyd led the men's charge that fell just five points short of the title. The men ran well and had strong contributions from everyone down the line but could not catch Lynchburg College, the eventual winner. Head coach Norris Aldridge said, “Obviously, you’re disappointed every time you don't win, but we had a great effort from our team. Every- one did what they could and we had an outstanding performance.’ ’ Boyd, a senior, was voted ODAC Runner—of-the—Year with a tremendous effort last Saturday. He won the 100- meter run, 200-meter run, and ran a leg on both relay teams, the 4x100- meter winning relay and the second- place 4x400-meter relay. Senior Scott Williams also con- tributed. He won the 400-meter rim with a time of 48.9 seconds. Wil- liams also participated on both relay teams and took third in the 200-meter run. Junior Carl Gilbert kept busy all day participating in ten events. He finished second in the long jump de- spite setting the school record. He also took fourth in the 200-rneter run and sixth in the 100—meter run. Gil- bert also ran a leg on both relay teams. Junior David Martin accomplished a rare feat. He won both the 1500- and the 5000-meter runs. Junior Jeff Baucum ran his best 800-meter run breaking 2:00 for the first time in his career. Freshman David Phillips, harn- pered by a hamstring injury through- out most of the season, ran the 400- meter intermediate hurdles and tin- ished a second with a time of 56.2 seconds. “It was a great day,” is how women’s head coach John Tucker described his team’s performance. The women’s 172 points outdistanced Eastern Mennonite by 31 points. At the head of the women’s class was Beth‘ Stutzmarui.

The Generals, led by defending NCAA Division III singles and dou- bles champion John Morris, finished 10 points ahead of Lynchburg, who finished second. Morris, a senior, defended his championship at No. 1 singles with three straight set wins, defeating J.P. Simanis of Hampden-Sydney 6-1, 6- 2 in the quarterfmals, winning his semifinal match 7-5, 6-0 and handing Laurent Oomec of Bridgewater his first loss of the year 7-5, 6-1 in the final. Morris earned ODAC Player-of- the-Year honors for the second straight year. He teamed with junior Bill Meadows to win the No. 1 dou- bles flight, defeating Tom Sullivan and Todd Klyver of Lynchburg 6-3, 6-2 in the finals. Morris and Mead- ows are currently ranked tenth in the nation in doubles play. With his two championships, Morris now becomes an eight-time ODAC champion, winning both of his flights in all four years he has played The Generals won five of the six singles flights and the No. 1 doubles flight. It was the first time since 1986 that the team did not win all nine flights. In 1986, W&L was defeated at the No. 1 singles flight. “The challenge this year was to win all nine flights," said head coach Gary Franke. “We weren't able to do that, but we still were able to come away with the title. We had beaten the top two other teams 7-2 each so we felt very confident coming in." Senior Billy Tunner captured the No. 2 singles title, defeating Steve Horowitz of Lynchburg 6-4, 6-3 in the finals. Meadows captured the No. 3 flight with a tough 7-5, 7-6 (7-2) win over Klyver. Junior Reid Manley won his No. 4 singles flight easily with a 6-2, 6- 1 win over Gardner Cobb of H-SC, and senior John Sutterlin came through with the No. 6 singles title, defeating Greg Holland of Lynchburg in three sets, 3-6, 6-4, 6-4. Sophomore Jack Tinney, who had been playing No. 6, moved up to No. 5, where he finished second, losing in the finals to Scott Watson of Lynch- burg 6-3, 6-4. At No. 2 doubles, Turmer and Manley lost in the semifinals in three sets to eventual champions Sirnanis and Rand DuPriest (H-SC) ea, 44,“ CATHOLIC CAMPUS MINISTRY St. Patrick’s Church Mass Schedule: Saturday 5:00 p.m. Followed by Video & Dinner.

By John Laney Associate Sports Editor To his teammates and friends Chris Mast.rogiovanni is simply known as Mastro. Perhaps they should insert an ‘e’ to his nick- name, preferring instead to call him Maestro. For that is what Mastro- giovanni has become this season for W&L’s lacrosse team, a mas- ter in the art of scoring, exhibit- ing eminence as the conductor of the offensive attack. Although the Generals played only three games in April, Mas- trogiovanni, a key to W&L’s 1990 lacrosse resurgence, scored nine goals. He had a career-high six goals, the first two coming in a 13-second span, in a 25-1 vic- tory over Virginia Wesleyan, one goal in a 12-4 loss to No. 2 Washington College and two goals in a 14-10 win over No. 16 Harnpden-Sydney. For his acheivements, Mastro— giovanni has been named The Ring-tum Phi’s Athlete-of-the- Month for April. Mastrogiovanni’s accomplish- ments are even more impressive when viewed against the backdrop of the entire season. After 12 games the seniAoratt_a_c_lgnan from The Ring-tum Phl, May 3, 1990 [ATHLETE-OF-THE-MONTH‘ Geneva, N.Y., has 41 points with 36 goals and five assists. What is more striking is his accuracy. His goal scoring has come from only 79 shots, giving him a shooting percentage of 45.6 per cent, which is oddly high for a lacrosse player. As a compari- son, W&L’s leading scoring in basketball this year, Chris Jacobs, shot 44.0 percent. Mastrogiovanrii has also regis- tered eight hat tricks this season and he scored 19 goals during a four-game stretch. He scored five goals against No. 6 Gettysburg, including the garne—winner with :44 remaining in overtime. He collected five goals and an assist in a 13-11 win over Middlebury, scoring twice in 28 seconds, and picked up three more goals in a 13-12 overtime win at No. 15 Guilford. Playing on the crease of a low double stack offense, Mastro- giovanrii is W&L’s go~to guy, benefitting from passes from attackrnen Mike Moseman and Jeff Roberts and midfielders Todd Garliss and Clark Wight. The offense is designed for Mastro- giovanni and it is his job to finish the break and get the goals. “I expected to do this well (this season),” Mastrogiovarmi said. “I feel at home on the crease as an attackman. We have a new coach [Jim Stagnitta] and before the season he said that I move well off the ball. He thought that attack was where I would help the team the most.” Mastrogiovanni played his first three seasons at midfield, where he was the most-improved player in 1988. As a freshman he had two goals and two assists for the team that advanced to the Div- ision III Final Four. As a soph- omore and junior, when W&L was 2-11 and 4-9, he had a total of 24 goals. Heading into Sunday's game against VMI the Generals, 8-4, have an outside chance of making the eight-team NCAA tournament. “Everyone’s pretty excited and happy that we're winning again, especially the seniors. We have people playing in positions where they’ll give the best output," Mastrogiovarmi said. Set to graduate next month with a degree in psychology, Mastrogiovanni said he plans to continue his involvement in the game he has played since the fifth grade. “I’ll probably play in a sum- mer league and maybe a club team. Hopefully I’m going to do some coaching.” 1% John Morris ...wins eighth ODAC title 6-2. At No. 3 doubles, the team of Sutterlin and freshman Travis West, inserted during the tearn’s Florida trip, also lost in the semifinals, fall- ing to Cobb and Drew Grice (I-I-SC) 6-1, 7-6 (10-8). The Generals are currently ranked 13th in the nation, and only 12 teams will receive bids to the NCAA tour- narnent. Said Frarike, “Right now, it's between Rochester, St. John’s and W&L, and I honestly don’t know who will make the tournament. There are no real difference between the teams.” Bids will be given out on May 14. The Generals have been to the tournament each of the last four years, winning the National Champi- onship in 1988. Golf from page 4 tie for fifth place in the individual standings. Thomas was selected ODAC Golf- er of the Year and Piatt was named Coach of the Year. But when Piatt and the team returned to Lexington, he presented Leslie with the placque. Said Piat, “This is Buck's team. I was just lucky enough to keep the boat in the right direction. The award is a credit to the strength of the golf program that Buck has put together here at'W&L.” Next the Generals will have to wait until May 14 to see if the sea- son will continue. “May I4 is when the conference call will take place to give out NCAA tournament bids,” said Piatt. “It looks very good that we will get a team bid.” “If you win your conference,” said Leslie, “then they [the NCAA] have to take a long look at you. We haven't played as many rounds as some other teams, but we have the advantage that we won the confer- ence, and that will get us a long loo .” Should the team get a bid or not, Thomas will also be submitted for an individual bid.

Stump from page 4 left to provide the final margin of 14- 10 On the day, Roberts, Garliss and Jones had three goals apiece, while Mastrogiovanni and Wight added two each. Junior goalie Tom Costello came up big when he had to, making 12 saves. Although he didn’t score, Chris Kennedy had to be the star of the game for W&L. The senior faceoff specialist won an amazing 27 of 28 and the last 19 he took. Senior de- fensman Reid Campbell won the only faceoff he attempted as the Generals won 28 of 29 and the last 20 on the afternoon. “Aside from the games against Virginia and Washington College, Chris has been pretty much dominat- ing the faceoffs," said Stagnitta. “He's been doing a great job of getting us the ball when we need it in the pressure situations." The Tigers elected to play man- to-man defense throughout, and that proved to be their downfall. Continu- ally W&L offensive players would beat their deferisernen and no one would slide to help out for the Ti- gers, leaving wide open shots. “We knew they would play man- to—man at the beginning because they knew we were adept at playing BDDDDDDUDDDDDDDCICIDDD May 2-3 Last Two Days To Pick Up Graduation Announcements!

Sunday they didri’t slide well at all." _ “We were able to open up a big lead. Once we got the big lead. they had to play man. If they switch to zone, then we just be patient and work the ball around." The Generals, 8-4, 3-2 in Old Dominion Athletic Conference play, defeated Harnpden—Sydney and tin- ished over .500 in ODAC play for the first time since 1987, when they went to the NCAA Division III Final Four. This season the Generals have defeated four teams ranked in the Division III Top 20 (H-SC was rank- ed 16th). W&L will close out the season Saturday at 3:00 on Wilson Field in the Third Annual Lee-Jackson La- crosse Classic against cross-town rival VMI. W&L won last year 10-9 on Douoguih’s goal in sudden-deatli overtime. “It's a big game for us," said Stagnitta. “We have to win to keep our goal of being in the playoffs alive. And for the seniors, it's their last opportunity to shine.” Track from page 4 leg on the winning relay team. The other dominating woman was sophomore LaShawn King, who won the 400-meter run while setting a school record of 63.08 seconds. She also took second place in the high jump, third in the long jump, fourth in the 200-meters and sixth in the 100-meters. She also participated in both relays. Said Tucker, “We won the meet with fewer girls than EMC so most girls were in multiple events." Tuc- ker called the day an “endurance test” and was pleased with his team and the steady progress they made throughout the year was very gratify- ing for a coach. Both the men and women lose valuable performers off their teams. The women lose Stutzmann. Howev- er, even though Tucker is sorry to see her leave, he has three freshmen coming in who he feels will make up that difference along with his retum- ing team members. The men lose Boyd, pole-vaulter Phillip Sampson, sprinter Tie Sos- nowski, and Williams. Aldridge also wishes that they could remain, but he knows he has a strong nucleus retum- ing, including Gilbert, Martin, and Baucurn.

I meant it to be a joke. tlnfortunately, my editors didn’t catch the subtle (asinine) humor and promptly allotted space for my arti- cle. When I learned of their confu- sion my first reaction was, well, unprintable. Then I began to think about it. A story on East Lex...why not? To many Washington and Lee students East Lex rivals House Moun- tain and Goshen as a permanent, and beloved, landmark of the area. "There has been an East Lex since l936," said owner James ‘Jim’ Bowen. "Back in the old days this used to be a coun store. There were no Krogers at that time, and East Lex carried grain, feed, coal, and even salt blocks. The store also had a lunch counter and delivered groceries to its customers." A store similar to East Lex can be found in every small town in the United States. Although the building has not completely escaped the rav- ages of time, it has an air of serenity and permanence. The store sits on the side of Rt. 11, bearing a faded sign that says "East Lexington Store Quick Stop." Metal signs proclaim- ing "Rainbo is Good Bread" and "Marlboro Man" dot the building's sides. Two gasoline pumps stand guard in front of the store. Trucks and cars are placed haphazardly across the parking lot. This Norman Rockwell painting only lacks an ancient hound dog sleeping in the shade. Inside the air is motionless and cool. The shelves are stuffed with every conceivable item: fishing tackle, shotgun shells, bread, comcob pipes, beef jerky, shirts, newspapers, fire- works, Elvis bubble gums cards, lunch meats, cups, pickles, Red Man chewing tobacco, baseball hats, and tooth-ache drops. The store even sells the kind of magazines that mother wouldn’t let into the house. And the silence is broken by the Read the Ring-tum Phi for the Come In For Lee-Jackson Bowling! East Lex, located on Rt. 11, carries everything from beef jerky to Elvis a W&L tradition. Staff photo by Chris Leiphart. muted hum of two beer coolers. "I used to say that East Lex car- ried everything from lite beer to light bulbs," said Jim. ‘'1 stock just about everything. The only things I don’t have that people ask for are wine and fishing licenses." Granted the store is crammed with endless supplies. Yet Washington and Lee students think of two things when the name East Lex pops up in conversation: Beer specials and Jim Bowen. If you are having that Satur- day night poker party, or your Frater- nity is throwing an intimate party for, five hundred close friends, then most likely you arrive at East Lex to check out Jim's legendary specials. "We carry all the domestic beers and four or five of the best selling imported beers," according to Jim, -who added that he tries to have a special posted all the time.
