Radio Station Change?
WGY and WROW will be used to
inform Milnites when school is
closed unexpectedly. Dr. Fossieck
said those stations contacted Milne
about security arrangements to pre-
vent pranksters from dialing in
false reports that school is closed.
Dr. Fossieck said he would con-
sider using additional stations.
Many Milne students listen to sta- .
tions other than WGY and WROW.
Spokesmen for WABY, WPTR,
WOKO, and WTRY said their sta-
tions have security provisions to
thwart pranksters.
Four years ago an area station
falsely reported Milne’s “closing.”
Driver Ed. to be Required
(CSP) —The New York Depart-
ment of Motor Vehicles will require
all new applicants for licenses to

Details of the course haven’t been
decided yet. The course is manda-
tory under a legislative act passed
last year.
Mrs. Walker Leaves Soon
Mrs, Brita Walker, the art teacher
and yearbook advisor, will not teach
during the second semester. Her
replacement hasn’t been named.
She will return next September.

DA for Youth Action
By Brian Ferguson and
Aaron Kuperman
(CSP) —Arnold Proskin, Albany
County's new District Attorney, is
a sharp contrast to the stereotype
of the somber, grey-haired, public
persecutor.
To Arnold Proskin his duties in-
clude communicating with the youth
of the county. He jokes about hav-
ing just reached the distrustful age,
30!
Proskin hopes to involve Albany's
teenagers in crime prevention and
education about their legal rights.
He hopes to keep in contact with
the real leaders of the county’s
youth (who aren’t always the stu-
dent council presidents) through a
“Junior Advisory Council” based
on a group operating in Los
Angeles. Plans for this group are
still vague.
As District Attorney he has an
open door policy allowing anyone,
including teen-agers, to speak to
him on official matters.
Youth Reason for Proskin Win
Proskin thinks that youth have
an “extremely important role” in
politics even if they’re denied the
vote. He feels youth “were mainly
responsible for my election.” He
believes high school students are a
source of fresh ideas for govern-
ment.

term as a public servant for all the
public, including teenagers,
New System Introduced
By Aaron Kuperman
Semester and year grades will be compiled on the
The new guidelines were
discussed by the faculty last month and will be ex-
plained to the student body at an assembly Wednesday.
The guidelines are just guides and not binding
Many faculty and students previously thought
the old guidelines were binding rules,
According to a table signed by Mr. Bell, “All marks
weren't weighed mathematically (in the’ preparation
of the guidelines). But other educational considera-
tions are: 1, Encourage the students who has a poor
basis of new guidelines.

start,
2. Reward is given for working the second quarter
of each semester.
3, Should encourage student motivation during the
second semester.
4. Discourage the student with a good first sem-
ester mark not to coast the second semester.”
Mr. Bell also said in the sheet that, “All marks
must be justifiable to students and parents,”
Under the new guidelines students slipping more
than one letter grade between semester incur greater
penalties. As previously a student doing better first
semester is penalized,
Under the new guidelines a student doing well on
the last quarter of the semester could get a good grade
even if his work is mediocre on the first quarter and
the semester exam.
The new system increases penalties for students
who start high and fall down as the term progresses.
Students doing badly during the beginning of the
marking period receive increased advantages.

You Can Take SUNY Courses Now
By Aaron Kuperman
(CSP)—High school students can study college courses and earn State
University credits through television’s “University of the Air” broadcast
locally by WMHT, channel 17, on weekend mornings and afternoons.
Courses scheduled for next semester include a German course, “Guten
Tag,” an astronomy course “Eye on the Universe,” an American’ History
course “Rise of the American Nation Il,” “Humanities II: The Discourse of
Western Man,” “The History of Latin America II” and “Calculus and
Analytic Geometry.”
Students seeking college credits may be assigned outside readings and
written work besides the televised lessons and required mid-term and
final exam. Self-study students (who don’t seek credits) have no required
work but can use the course's study guide.
Study guides, which include study hints, course outlines, lecture sum-
maries, reading lists, and review questions, supplement televised lectures.
Credits earned from University of the Air courses are accepted by
many schools in the State University system. According to Dr. Irving
Verschoor, Dean of the College of General Studies of the State University
at Albany, the decision whether to accept a University of the Air course
for credit is up to individual schools.
The second semester begins Sat, Jan. 25. Applications from credit
students must be postmarked by midnight Jan. 31. Self-study students
can request study guides any time. Applications and information are avail-
able at: University of the Air, College of General Studies, State University
of New York at Albany, Albany, N. Y. 12203 or by telephoning 457-4934.
Courses Lack Prerequisites
Anyone can take University of the Air courses, Each semester's work
is independent of the previous semester's work except for Calculus and
Analytic Geometry II which assumes the student knows the material from -
Calculus and Analytic Geometry I.
Dean Verschoor, whose college supervises University of the Air opera-
tions at SUNYA says the courses include a, “fair amount of work. They
are based on .. . the reading and the televised lectures.”
Tution for credit students is $13.50 per credit. Textbooks vary in
price between $7 and $22. Study guides cost $2. Credit students must buy
texts and study guides but they are optional for self-study students,

school newspapers forming the Cooperative Student
Press (CSP). The CSP is a high school press service
which will cover important events affecting students
which were previously not covered by high school
newspapers and were inadequately covered by regular
newspapers.
Besides the Crimson and White, the Bethlehem Star
and the Guilderland Journal are initial CSP members.
More schools will probably join in the near future.

The CSP will cover State and local government plus
other events of interest to students from a high school

ican history through 1865. Rise of the American Nation II studies American
development through the present, emphasizing the struggle of blacks for
equality. The course is accepted for credit by SUNY at Albany, Bingham-
ton, Brockport, Fredonia, and Geneseo.
Major American Books discusses the works of 15 authors including
Thoreau, Whitman, Frost, and Faulkner. Credit for the literature course
is granted by SUNY at Albany, Buffalo, Brockport, and Geneseo.
Eye on the Universe is a descriptive astronomy course studying the
solar system, the stars, the Milky Way and other galaxies. Albany, Buffalo,
Oswego, Brockport, and Geneseo grant credit for the astronomy course,
According to the University of the Air catalog “Guten Tag is a highly
unusual approach to a beginning language course. Guten Tag familiarizes
the student with German . . . through dramatized dialogues filmed: in . . .
Germany.” State at Buffalo, Oswego, and Brockport accept Guten Tag
for credit.
“Humanities II traces the development of modern western thought by
sampling representative art, music, and literature from the seventeenth
century through the present.” Its varied reading list includes Voltaire,
Faulkner, Shakespeare, and Camus. Only Binghamton and Brockport grant
credit for Humanities.
Calculus and Analytic Geometry II will study differentiation and inter-
gratién of algebraic trigometric, inverse logarithmic, expontential, and
logarithmic function" plus plane areas, volumes, are lengths, and work prob-
lems. Binghamton, Geneseo, Oswego, and Brockport grant credit for
Calculus and Analytic Geometry II.
The History of Latin America II traces th eevolution of Latin America.
According to the catalog, “The (second) semester highlights the clash of
Latin America’s cherished heritage of Indian, Iberian, and Negro cultures
with the values of the super powers that woo her nations. Albany, Buffalo,
Brockport and Geneseo grant credit for this course.
American History, German, Astronomy, Humanities, and Calculus will
be televised Saturday and repeated on Sunday. Literature and Latin
American History will be broadcast on Saturday only.
According to Dean Verschoor, a survey of televised course students
in 1967 revealed two of the best students were age 16 or under.
Regents Ask Scholar
Incentive Change!!
(CSP) — The Board of Regents
recommended the reorganization of
the Scholar Incentive Awards pro-
gram giving larger grants to stu-
dents from lower and middle income
families, They also proposed allow-
ing grants to be used out of state
and at hospital schools of nursing.
They also recommended increas-
ing the number of Regents’ Scholar-
ships from 18,843 to 22,500 and fix-
ing the number of annual scholar-
ships at ten per cent of the number
og high school graduates the pre-
vious year.
The Regents’ proposals are part
of their $2.5 billion recommendations
to the legislature for education
spending in 1969-70,
Under the new proposals the
maximum scholar incentive awards
would be raised to $800. For every
$100 the student’s family’s net in-
come exceeded $3000 the award
would be decreased $8. Awards be-
low $100 won’t be made, Students
with family net incomes ‘above
$11,800 won’t receive awards.
Many Ways to Win Awards
Scholar
Incentive awards are
granted to students scoring 100
points or higher on the Regents
Scholarship exam, receiving a Reg-
ents diploma, scoring a total of 800
on the SAT, or ranking in the 50th
percentile or higher on a recognized
test such as the ACT.
Currently awards range from $100
to $500. Students with family net
incomes below $1800 receive $500.
Students with net incomes between
$1800 and $7500 receive $200. Stu-
dents with family incomes above
$7500 receive $100. Awards must
be used in New York in a full time
degree program.

Bah! Humbug!
Happy Holidays? When we speak of having happy holidays,
we should be thinking about happiness in commemorating the
significance of a certain holiday, whether it be religious,
patriotic, or just youthful fun.
Too many people allow themselves to be swept up into the
whirlwind of commercial aspects and yearly festivities which
attack the senses on all holidays, but especially during the
holiday season. People let the real meaning of the holidays
bury itself beneath the heaps of presents they distribute, letting
themselves believe that these are the measure of their holiday
spirit. They may only reflect for a few moments, if they do at
all, on the event which happened so long ago which affects
their way of life today.
Maybe |’m just a sentimentalist, but | feel that holidays
should be more old-fashioned, having more of yesterday, which
is closer to the ancient event, than tomorrow in them. Today
the shimmer and shine of the holidays comes too much from
store windows and mammoth Christmas trees than from the
hearts of people where for centuries has been found the essence
of the holiday (derived from holy + day.) IS!
Easy as 1,2,3
by E.T.B.
Since you Milnites have taken me in and tried to help me
find myself, | am filled with self-reproach because | haven’t
done anything for you. So with the new year upon us, | know
that it is only fittin’ an’ proper that | impart to you the wisdom
of making a new year’s resolution. These steps of my granny’s
have been tried hundreds of times, and one of these years I’Il
get them down pat too. :
The first step is to “know thyself.” As you may have
guessed, this is where | have most of my trouble. You should
know your capabilities and your weaknesses, and especially just
how sincere you are in wanting to break a small habit or accom-
plish a monumental feat. Are you a procrastinator?
The second step is to choose a resolution that is suitable to
you, the individual, on the basis of your objective study in step
one. To become a good resolutioner, you should begin by
making resolutions it is reasonably certain you will be able to
keep. Breaking resolutions can be terribly damaging to the
ego, if you take them seriously, that is.
The third and final step is merely to keep your resolution,
which is very simple if you have done the preceeding steps’
honestly. If-however, you have made your resolutions While
temporarily insane, you may later have suicidal tendencies as
you find you are not really dedicated to such rash self-improve-
ment. 3
Good luck, and remember, “’ ‘Tis bettér to follow through on
one small resolution than to make yourself a Igt of huge but
empty promises.” You have just read the mortal words of
yours truly.
One Man—One Vote? Hardly!
The Electoral College must be abolished. This institution that chooses
our Presidents is an antiquated organization thought up by the upper class
founding fathers to keep the poor, uneducated people from electing our
Presidents. Now, in the twentieth century where almost everyone has at
least a high school education we shouldn’t have to put up with the Electoral
College which does not always vote the way the people do.
In 1960, Senator Harry Byrd (Dem., Virginia) who didn’t receive any
votes, got 15 electoral votes, In 1948, Senator Strom Thurmond (then
States Rights candidate, now Rep., South Carolina) received 1,169,021 popu-
lar votes and 39 electoral votes while Henry Wallace received 1,157,172
votes and no electoral votes. Thus, the will of 1,157,172 people was ignored
by the College.
No attack on the Electoral College would be complete without men-
tioning the classic case of 1876, Rutherford B. Hayes lost the popular vote
to Samuel Tilden by 251,000 votes but won the electoral vote by 1 vote,
and thus became President.
Dees this show the principle of “one man—one vote?” These examples
demonstrate that the Electoral College does not reflect the will of the
people. —Jonathan Soffer
Letters to
To the Editor:
Quoting Dr. Fossieck, “It has
been traditional to have the Alumni
Ball on the facilities of the State
University of New York.” Since
there are no such facilities open to
Milne (except Page Gym) until
April 12, the junior class has post-
poned the Alumni Ball until that
date.
But did the Administration ever
think that it is also traditional to
have the Alumni Ball in December?
A desirable solution to this pre-
dicament would have been to rent a
private hall. Economically, there
would be approximately ‘twenty
dollars difference in having the ball
at a private hall. After looking
over past records of the Alumni
Ball, I've noticed that attendance
has been continually diminishing in
recent years. I feel Milne needs
to have a new location to increase
the Ball’s attendance. A random
poll I have taken shows overwhelm-
ingly that the Juniors and Seniors
would prefer to have the Ball off
the grounds of the State University.
Although tradition is pleasant
and quaint, it must change to meet
the times. I hope that negotiation
between the students and the Ad-
ministration will hold the key in
the future.
Co-Chairman of the Alumni Ball,
Gerry Hausler
Blind Man's Blutf
They spin you,
And turn you,
And cram you
Full—
Of nonsense,

Your eyes are sore,
And they spin you
Around just once more,

To ruin or reign.

HAUNTING NAME
Yes, Virginia, there is a Dr. Milne
(or was, anyway).
By now you are probably think-
ing, “Milne—my, that name has a
familiar ring to it. I wonder where
T've heard it before?”
Contrary to popular belief Dr.
Milne is not simply another of
Ernest T. Bass’ assumed names used
during his earlier days at this
school. Dr. Milne actually existed,
and the school which all of us at-
tend (occasionally) is named for
him! >
Dr. Milne was president of
S.U.N.Y.A. and re-organized what
is now Milne adding a high school
department. (The wisdom of this is
still in doubt.) Because of these
changes, the school was re-named
in his honor in 1915. Previously
Milne was called The Albany
Normal School, a completely un-
appropriate name, and taught chil-
dren from first through ninth grade.
—Pat Rao
the Editor
To the Editor:
We, the students of Milne, have
tremendous advantages under a
unique educational system. It’s too
bad that I can’t think of any at the
moment,
Milne overworks and overtests its
students. This is the fault of cal-
lous supervisors who “command”
and of inexperienced student teach-
ers who hate changing their lesson
plan. When a student has as many
as three tests to study for in one
night, it's time for a change.
Have any of you students ever
tried to explain to a teacher the
impossibility of studying for three
exams in one night? I have. The
answers I have received have been
to the effect of “tough luck” or
“that’s not my problem,” and not
one teacher or supervisor has cared
enough to rearrange his schedule.
I fail to see the value of always
testing after a certain number of
chapters.
There are many excellent super-
visors at Milne. Yet, I can think
of a supervisor who has the effect
of a cold breeze, and as a result
teaches a frozen classroom of stu-
dents who abhor her. I know of
another supervisor who teaches so
quickly that one-half of the stu-
dents don’t understand the material
and are too afraid to ask questions
because they know they will be
answered by an explosion.
Don’t you think it’s time for a
change?

they are doing very important
things. I hope that you will be more
sensible and open your eyes and
ears to this beauty and life that sur-
rounds you. Can you recognize the
Flowers by their names or the Birds
by their singing? Young people

Basketball Record Even;
Heatly and Cadets Coming!
By Bob Schacter
The Milne varsity basketball team
registered its most important and
satisfying victory of the season by
defeating Voorheesville 55-52. Bob
“Spider” Kayne set personal highs
of 24 points and 23 rebounds to lead
the Raiders. Milne trailed the entire
game by a slim margin before Mark
Goldfarb made a jump shot with
about four minutes left to tie the
game at 49-49, Then Kayne and
Altus scored to put the Raiders
ahead 53-49. With ten seconds to
go the
Blackbirds had cut the
margin to 53-52 but they fouled
Lou Milstein in the final second
and he converted both free throws
to give Milne its win. This evened
Milne’s CHVL and overall record
at 2-2 going into the Middleburgh
Christmas Tournament.
The Raiders downed host Middle-
burgh in the first round 79-57 be-
hind Kayne’s 26 points and 20 re-
bounds. Milstein added 18 points
to the attack also. This was Milne’s
best effort of the year as they led
by 18 points at the end of the first
nnMOoHeDd ON
half. Middleburgh scored 14 straight
points in the third quarter to cut
Milne’s lead to 54-46 but the Raiders
pulled away to a commanding 12
point edge after three quarters and
won the game easily, The following
night Milne met Schoharie for the
championship. Kayne was the only
bright spot in the Raider lineup
tallying 24 points but Milne was
routed 85-63. Schoharie, employ-
ing a press early in the game forced
Milne into numerous errors and
they led 46-26 at halftime. The

Spotlight on Spider Kayne
By Bob Schacter
As Kayne goes, so go the Milne
Red Raiders. This has been the
case in most of the varsity basket-
ball games this season. In the open-
ing game against Catskill, Kayne
scored only 12 points as Milne was
trounced. Against Maple Hill, Kayne
tallied 18 points but fouled out as
Milne was stunned 72-62,
This was Milne’s poorest start in
many years and important games
were coming up. One such contest
pitted Milne against Voorheesville
on December 17. The Raiders final-
ly tied the score at 49-49 after
trailing the whole game. Then
Kayne scored on a jump shot to
put Milne on top 51-49. The Raiders
went on to win 55-52 as Kayne set
personal highs of 24 points and 23
rebounds.
A highly partisan crowd cheered
Middleburgh as they hosted Milne
in the first round of their Christ-
mas tournament. What they wit-
nessed was a hot shooting night for
Milne as we coasted to an easy
79-57 victory. Kayne poured in 26
points and snared 20 rebounds to
pace the Raiders. The following
night Milne was defeated by Scho-
harie for the championship 85-63,
despite Kayne’s 24 points. “Spider”
tallied 16 of his 24 points in the
second half.
Kayne has scored 118 points in
six games this year for a 19.7 ppg
average. 74 of those points have
come in the last three games, a phe-
nomenal 24.7 average per game.
‘The Middleburgh tournament did
not select a most valuable player
but my vote goes to Bob “Spider”
Kayne, Milne’s MVP.
Raiders never got closer than 15
points in perhaps their worst game
of the year, Milne now stands 3-3
and they have an important league
game at Heatly and a home en-
counter with archrival Albany
Academy coming up.
The Junior Varsity team has an
0-4 mark losing to Catskill, Cox-
sackie, Maple Hill, and Voorhees-
ville, Eric Schlamowitz, Steve
Abrookin, George Khachadourian,
Lou Iselin, Curt Mason and Charley
Hanley have been seeing the most
action.
Girls Underway
_ The girls volleyball season has
just been completed with the Var-
sity and J.V, teams each winning
none and losing three. Sandy Jab-
bour and Barbara Wolz were co-

The basketball season is just be-
ginning with Peggy Schmidt, Bev

Bowlers Lead CHVL
By Lou Finkelstein
After two league matches the
Milne keglers have posted a 7-1
won-lost record to tie arch - rival
Catskill for first place.
In the first match at Bowlero
Lanes against Waterford, Mike Cali
rolled a 198-497 to pace the Raiders
to a 4-0 sweep 2713-2490. Cali and
senior Gordy Smith bowled 540 and
539 respectively to help beat Maple
Hill at the Playdium 3-1 (2813-
2636). Also helping the team in their
first two matches were captain Al
Hutchins, Bob Schacter, Bob Schere,
and Kevin Bartlett. "Milne soon
