SUNYA'S "IMAGINARY INVALID" CAST ANNOUNCED
Director James Symons has announced the cast for Moliere's comedy, "The
Imaginary Invalid", to be produced by the Theatre Department of State University
of New York at Albany as the final offering of the 1974-75 major production series.
The student cast of the play includes James Barone of Albany; Vincent Capuano
and Michael Gottschalk from Guilderland; Alan Grosman from Queens; Louise Itzler
from Rockland County; Barry Katz of Nassau County; Marilyn Ornstein, originally
from Pittsfield, Mass.; Deborah Ottaviano from Westchester County, and Joseph
Zubrovich from Brooklyn. Stage manager for the production is Nicholas Nealon of

"The Imaginary Invalid" ridicules the medical faculty of seventeenth century
France through a series of comic scenes and musical interludes. The farce was
born of Moliere's own suffering and ironically, the author died on stage while
playing the role of the invalid in a production of his own play.
Performances are scheduled for Wednesday through Saturday, May 7-10, at 8:30
p.m., and Saturday and Sunday, May 10 and 11, at 2:30 p.m. in the Lab Theatre

GILMAN AND ENNIS IN "FLUTE FUN' PERFORMANCES
"Flute Fun," featuring Irvin Gilman, flute, and Paula Ennis, piano both
State University at Albany music department faculty artists, will have two per-
formances. One will be on Monday, Apr. 7 in the Recital Hall of the university's
Performing Arts Center, and the other, on Tuesday, Apr. 8, in Page Ilall, at the
university center's downtown campus.
There is no admission charge. Curtain time is 8:30 p.m. and the program
is called "Flute Fun" because of Burt Levy's "Orbs for Flute" and Francois Borne-
Bizet's "Carmen Fantasie." The piece by Levy, of the SUNYA music faculty, shows the
flute in contemporary virtuoso display-making use of all sorts of multiphonics,
finger clackings, flutter tonguing, and unexpected sonorities, while the Borne-
Bizet is a virtuoso piece in the late nineteenth century tradition. Both use
the flute to its fullest capacity.
The evening will open with "Sonota in F Major" by Handel and also will include
Henri Dutilleux's "Sonatine" and Franz Shubert's theme and variations on "Ihr
Blumlein alle" which gives the pianist a chance to showcase her talents.
Gilman, who takes special care to make his concerts innovative, commented,
"All in all, it is a pretty far-out and yet well balanced program running from the
tried and true, through the adventuresome and exciting, and closing with a
fantastic romp through themes of perhaps the most famous opera of all, 'Carmen,'"

SWEDISH FILM APR. 18-19 AT UNIVERSITY CENTER
Showings of the Swedish film, "Raven's End", directed by Bo Widerberg,
will conclude the season's Prize International Cinema series at State University
of New York at Albany. They are scheduled for Friday and Saturday, Apr. 18 and 19,
at 8 p.m. in the Recital Hall of the university center's Performing Arts Center.
Widerberg's glimpse of a fledgling writer's life in Raven's End, a semi-slum
in Sweden, in the 30's, has been described as a most important work. Its integrity,
its sad charm, and most of all, the characterizations linger in the minds of viewers.
Featured are the father, self-taught expert on cigars, cognac and the other symbols
of the high life he has never known; the long-suffering mother; and the son,
longing for escape yet loyal to Raven's End and all it stands for.
Wrote Archer Winsten in the New York Post: '"'Raven's End' stands up strong
and individual in any company, a picture to experience with the satisfaction
reserved for completed works of art."

GUGGENHEIM FELLOWSHIP AWARDED TO ALBANY UNIVERSITY CENTER PHYSICIST JAMES CORBETT
James W. Corbett, professor of physics at State University of New York at
Albany, has been chosen to receive a prestigious Guggenheim Fellowship for 1975.
His is the only Guggenheim awarded to a Capital District scholar, scientist, or
artist this year.
The award will assist Dr. Corbett, a member of the department of physics
since 1968, in his experimental studies in solid state physics. For two years
he was chairman of the physics department before returning to research and teaching.
Dr. Corbett is considered a pioneer in the experimental application of radia-
tion-induced ion implantation. In the work, various solid materials are bom-
barded with ions, and the defects generated are studied for their characteristics.
The results of Dr. Corbett's and similar basic research are being used extensively
in the rapidly expanding semi-conductor field.
Semi-conductors are used now in space vehicles and computers, television sets
and calculators, automobiles and generators. In fact, the whole world of micro-
miniaturization is based on the practical application of semi-conductor research.
As well, there seems to be great potential for the use of semi-conductors in the
new field of solar energy utilization.
Dr. Corbett, 47, is a New York City native, who earlier worked as a physicist
with the General Electric Research and Development Center, and taught at Rensselaer
Polytechnic Institute and Yale University. He received his undergraduate education
at the University of Missouri and his Doctor of Philosophy from Yale.
At the Albany University Center, Dr. Corbett, and his research team, have been

This year the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation awarded $4,138,500
to 308 scholars, scientists, and artists selected from among 2,819 applicants
in the foundation's 5lst competition.
The fellowships were awarded on the basis of demonstrated accomplishments
in the past and strong promise for the future. The greatest number of awards
were given to faculty and researchers at United States colleges and universities.
In all, 88 colleges and universities are represented. Three upstate New York
colleges are represented among the winners. In addition to the University Center
at Albany, they are Cornell University and the State University College at New
Paltz. Dr. Corbett's award is one of 14 given to researchers in the field this
year,

POLISH PROFESSOR PUBLICIZES POTENTIALS
A Graduate Exchange Scholar, Stanislaw Glowinkowski, is working
with Professor er, of the department of physics at State
University of New York at Albany on basic research in the field of
energy storage. In particular, they are studying superionic con-
ductors, which are an integral part of current efforts toward the
development of a large scale energy storage system.
Energy experts hope that such work as conducted here and abroad
will lead to an improved automobile battery and also, via solar energy,
enable such energy to be stored in even larger useful amounts than
currently being accomplished in the energy-short world. Some of
Mr. Glowinkowski's and Dr. Story's research is being shared with
scientists form the General Electric Company who also are interested
in the subject.
Another potential application of their work to the energy
field is that of so-called “load leveling," Dr. Story feels that if
large storage capacity batteries can be developed, even for rela-
tively short times, energy generating equipment can be used more
effeciently.
Mr, Glowinkowski is spending the academic year at SUNYA as
part of the SUNY-Stony Brook exchange program with Poland. The
scientist is from the Institute of Physics, Adam Mickiewicz University,
in Poznan, Poland.

TRANSPORTABLE SOLAR LABORATORY (TSL) TO VISIT SUNYA -- PUBLIC INVITED
Solar energy is here, as an alternative source of energy, and now as a visiting
laboratory available for visiting by interested citizens and school groups.
Beginning Friday, April 25, through Tuesday, May 6, the public is invited to
tour the laboratory, located in two 50-foot trailers set up on the western end of
the State University of New York at Albany campus near the campus security office.
The visit of the Solar Laboratory is sponsored by the Atmospheric Science Re-
search Center of the State University of New York at Albany, the Office of the
Speaker of the New York State Legislature and its Scientific Staff, and the Chambers
of Commerce of Albany, Schenectady, Troy, and Colonie.
The Transportable Solar Laboratory is of particular interest to leaders in
education, engineering, science, government and industry. It's not just a model,
but a working laboratory built within two large vans; collecting energy from the sun
and converting it to useable power. The laboratory is visiting the Capital District
as part of a test of systems of solar energy collection in various parts of the
country. The information will be turned over to the National Science Foundation
which will use it to set national solar energy standards. The laboratory makes a
fascinating field trip for individual students or groups, particularly those from
the 6th grade and up, studying or interested in science.
A resident engineer will be at the laboratory to conduct tours throughout
the unit's stay at SUNYA. Parking is available immediately at the site which is
located within a few yards of the Atmospheric Science Research Center-SUNYA Alumni House~

UNIVERSITY CELEBRITY SERIES TO PRESENT FOUR MUSICAL PROGRAMS
Three of the world's premiere musical ensembles will play in Page Hall on the
downtown campus of State University of New York at Albany in a University Celebrity
Chamber Music Series.
The low priced concerts will feature the Beaux Arts Trio, Cleveland String
Quartet and Tokyo String Quartet. The 1975-76 series, due to begin in October, will
be a forerunner of several major university-community outreach programs in the arts
using the 900-seat Page Hall, an easily reached concert auditorium between Washington
and Western avenues.
The programs are also scheduled to provide the least possible conflict with other
entertainment forms in the Capital District, making them available to the greatest
numbers of people. They will be held at 4 p.m. Sunday afternoons. Public trans-
portation and parking are conveniently available.
Four concerts will be held, under the joint sponsorship of the university's
Department of Music and the Office of University Affairs. Subscription and individual
ticket prices are being held to a minimum for the non-profit university venture,
with subscription prices ranging from $10 for the four concert series for adults,
$6.50 for students and senior citizens (with identification), and $3 for children
under 12 years of age. For individual concert tickets, the price to adults is $3;
students and senior citizens (with ID), $2; and children under 12, $1.
The Beaux Arts Trio has been acclaimed on both sides of the Atlantic, through
sold out tours and rave reviews. They made their official public debut some 20 years
ago at the Berkshire Festival in Tanglewood, and performed there for nine consecu-
tive years. They will play in the area again, but this time in downtown Albany,

twice in the current series. They are scheduled to open the University Celebrity
series on Oct. 19 playing a program of Haydn, Ravel and Brahms. The trio will be back
Apr. 25 to close the series with a program of works chosen form Mozart, Dvorak,
Beethoven, Shubert or Tschaikowsky. The trio is made up of violinist Isadore Cohen,
violincellist Bernard Greenhouse, and pianist Monahem Pressler.
Following the Beaux Arts on Nov. 16, will be the renowned Cleveland String Quar-
tet. The musical group was launched at the Marlboro Music festival just six years ago.
But they have been on a musical whirlwind since, playing concerts in Europe, South
America, the Unitéd States and Canada, and drawing critical acclaim as it went.
The quartet is now stationed as artists-in-residence at State University of New York
at Buffalo. It is made up of violinists Donald Weilerstein and Peter Salaff, violist
Martha Strongin Katz, and her husband, cellist Paul Katz. The quartet will play
an all-Beethoven program.
The third ensemble in the Celebrity Series will be another relatively new, but
highly acclaimed group, the Tokyo String Quartet. Its Jan. 25, 1976 concert will
consist of works by Mozart, Bartok, and Debussy.
