We could say lots more stuff, such as gossip but we don't want to offend people. For example, we could talk about getting angry, pimples, singing in the showers, and hot air. But we won't...unless you ask for it! See you all at the meeting!!!!
Lens and Lights
Well, it's that time again! Thanks again to all those who showed up to the training event. It went really well, except for those darn lights! I would like to thank CardBoard Bob for playing for us. We will try another one next term.Homecoming! What, no mic on a boat? But that means we can't test our water on mic theory! Anyway, go freshmen and sophomores. Get that Goat Head! And then party hardy! I think there will be very few sober people on campus.
Get ready for M.W. Rep. All this week you can find the crews laboring in Gompei's. Stop on by and help them out. They could sure use it. Also, for Oct. 10th, come hang with LnL and chill out before all those nasty finals. We will be set up in Gompei's playing music for you and popping up popcorn. If you get stressed out, just hop on down and check us out.
Well, time for me to go. If you want to hear more random thoughts, or just want to see what really goes on at an exec board meeting, stop on by Beckett Conference room Monday at 4:30. My random thoughts are beginning to get to me. Hope everyone has a nice week, and I'll see you all next week.

Men's Crew
Hey everybody, good work in the Textile Regatta on Sunday. Now we've got the Head of the Connecticut this weekend, so everyone get to practice this week so we can get in some really effective time on the water. So far still no word on the Head of the Fish in N.Y. so this is probably the last race for varsity. Novices get out and kick some butt in the Halloween Regatta. Everyone check the homepage (http://www.wpi.edu/~mcrew) out this week, because I plan to add at least 4 new sections in the next couple of weeks. -John

Newman Club
A great time was had by the twenty four members of the Club that went apple picking on the 16th. However more important than the great fun time, was the fact that the apples picked were donated to Youville House , a shelter for battered women and their children. It was great to see the joy on the small youngsters' faces as they ate fresh apples. On Sunday the 24th, rumor has it that the ladies at the tie-dye T-shirt event voted that Jim Palvat 's shirt was the best. We understand that Jim's shirt is now in Ct. We are wondering who is the big secret. The agenda committee met on Tuesday the 26th and planned several events including another pasta and video night plus a trip to LaSallette to see the lights followed by supper at Wright's Chicken Farm. The latter meal will depend if John D, our chef, makes the reservations in time.Freshman dinners have begun, so watch your mail box for your invitation. Fr. S's dinner are not too bad for an Irishman, so give them a try.
Oh, yes, the Club members would like to thank Ryan Abrahan and Becky Prine for their work on the tie-dye T-Shirt event and all the cooks that helped, or better still, took the place of Fr. S in doing the cooking.
Pre-Law Society
TUESDAY, OCT. 3, 4:30 AK126 NEXT MEETING!!!!!!Hey everyone!! To those who didn't attend the last meeting (which was almost everyone) here are some highlights. A copy of the constitution was handed out and discussed briefly. Any suggestions for a new name for our society? If you want a copy, contact Prof. Rissmiller, Wendell Jones or come to the next meeting. (TODAY 4:30 AK126!!!) Changes to the constitution will be discussed at the upcoming meeting. The first issue of "The Verdict" is a go. Prof. Rissmiller has a few ideas that are going to be put in it. If anyone wants to put an article in, start a column, or just help out contact Prof. Rissmiller, Charles Prescott or Wendell Jones. (TODAY 4:30 AK126!!!)
The faculty is going to vote on the minor in Law and Technology at the October 12 meeting. This will very likely be approved, so start signing up for those law courses if you haven't already. For all of the engineers and others out there don't forget that a new course in INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY (Patent) LAW will be offered in D'96. The Prof. and time is not set in stone yet. Keep coming to the meetings to find out the latest. (TODAY 4:30 AK126!!!)
Reminder that LSAT registration forms are due October 27 for the December 2 test. There is another test in February, but it will probably be too late if you want to go to law school in the fall of '96.
Just in case you havn't noticed yet I'll give one final reminder-MEETING TODAY 4:30!!!!! Even if you have the slightest interest in going to law school or are just interested in law, come and see what we're all about. See you there!!
Rugby Team
Hi, just another column...Rugby Team Loses! For the first time in two years, the WPI Rugby Team lost a regular season game. The Ruggers started off slugishly, but rebounded almost in time to snatch victory from defeat when Eddie's kick sailed wide left in the closing moments. The final score was only 10-8, but it was the most painful loss in recent memory. It's hard to recall any highlights in this game, probably because I can't remember most of it. On the bright side, the "B" side had an outstanding game, winning handily. Phil Roy, Johnny 5, Ryan Clement, and Ben Aldrich had strong games in the victory. This week we play URI at home for homecoming. Game time is 10:00.
