Growth
To Slow During 1970s
By VICKIB ZELDIN,
State Univorsity in“Albany, Avhich has
quadrupled its enrollment in,the last dec-
ade, will not grow in'the safne leaps and
‘bounds during the 1970s, aécorditig to the
university master plan. i
According to the plajt, entitled Prospec-
tus for the University Center at Albany,
1978-1080 enrollmeft should grow from
the present 13,860 students to 17,025 in
1980. The 8,675 increase projected over
the next seven years is considerably be-
low earlier estimates that the university
would have 23,000 students. by 1980,
THE..SPLIT between undergraduate
students and giaduate students also rep-
resents a marked difference from earlier
projections for the university center.
By. 1980, according to the plan, the uni:
versity will have 11,300 undregraduates:
and 5,725 graduate students. ~
“Our projected enrollment at the grad-
uate level shows a major reduction from:
the enlarged visions of three to five years.
ago,” the report stated. Earlier estimates >
. had envisioned that 43 per cent of the stu-
dents on the university campus would be
in graduate study by 1980, but newer fig-
“ures put the number closer to 33 per
cent. *
____'The_plan ‘predicts. thal_by-1980-al_least—
300. undergraduates on the Albany cam-
pus will be enrolled in major concentra-
tions that, ag of now, have not been for-
mally recognized or conceived. The uni-
versity plan predicts that there will be
‘more undergradvates majoring in the so
cia] scienese than any other fleld.
AT TRE GRADUATE level il is expect
ed that the School of Education will issue
about the same number of degrees as it
does now, ahd that the total In the divi-
sion of social selences and professional
schools will be only slightly less than in
education.
Four times as many siudents are ex-
pected to pursue doctoral degrees in the
sciences and gocial selences as thase in
the humanities by 1980. The university
expects (6 confer between 180 and 200
doctorates by 1981. This year about 100
- doctorates were awarded,
While the growth plans have been tai
' Tored down from. previous projections,

Because.of this the university has re-
quested that the State University central
administration permit the school to plan
a capital addition of 128,000 square fect,
— tobe completed by 1976,
Original plans called for- two additions
w the academic space, but fiscal strin-
gency In the last few years resulted in
the scrapping of these plans. According
to the new, plan, the school’s enrollment
is already 20 per cent abova capacity.

Gun Arrests ~
Rare at SUNYA |
By JIM KUNSTLER
The only ‘person, student
or otherwise, ever ‘arrested
carrying a weapon at the
State University of New
York in Albany (SUNYA)
was “a guy stealing a car
battery or hubcaps,”” accord-
ing to James Williams,
director of campus security.
“He had it in his hand, but
whether he pointed it or not
IT don't know,” said Wil-
liams,
: 1
WILLIAMS called the con-
troversy over gun-packing
security guards a “tempest
in a teapot.”
Only 11 staffers on the 48-
man security force are ate
thorized to carry guns. Thus
far, not one of the men has
used his weapon,
But a general escalation in
campus crime is conceded
‘by SUNYA security forces.
“We've gotten reports that
people who deal in hash and
marijuana are carrying
weapons to protect them-
selves,” Williams, said.
“They carry a lot of cash.”
WILLIAMS SAYS the secu
rity foree has arrested
“three or four” students for
armed robbery--all nabbed
after the a¢t on subsequant,
information.
So far, no officers have am
‘deen assaulted, though some
have been threatened. Logalx
ly, a threat to an officer con+
stitutes an assault.
Asked if the state's new
drug law may lead té shoo
touts between hard drug
dealers and security police,
Williams said, “sure,”
JOHN COLEMAN, a ‘su
pervisor. authorized to carry
a gun, says he does not nece,
essarily feel safer because of
the gun,
“Tt depends on the situa-
tion,” Coleman said. If he
~ ever felt his life was endan- |
ered it was “from outs
lers, not students,” he said.
Asked if ‘the level of viol-
‘ence hed been increasing on
the SUNYA campus,’ Assist-
ant Security Chief Jim ‘Con-
nally said, “I don’t likerthe *
word ‘violence.’ We have our
share of crime—sex crimes,
assaults and robberies, It's
like any urban community of
15 to 20 thousand people.”

What makes gomeone a
Distinguished Teaching Pro-
fessor?
John Mackiewiez, a bial-
ogy professor at State Uni-
versity lin Albany for 12
years, isn’t exactly sure, but
he was among nine profes-
sors out of some 15,000 on
the State University’s 72
campuees who was named to
the rank ‘ecently by SUNY
Chancellor Ernest L. Boyer.
Boyer said that to the best
of his knowledge the designa-
tion, which carries with it a
promotion and a salary hike
up to-$2,600, is the first for-
mal program in the nation
designed to recognize excell:
ence in college teaching,
MACKIEWICZ, who spe-
cializes In the study of tape-
worms and their fish hosts,
sald he was really unsure
what it was about his teach-
ing that had earned him the
SUNY honor, but a short talk
with him about how he at-
tempts to eduoate students
reveals the answer quickly.
“T try to keép the students
inform about what. science
is really about; not just the
facts, but how to be a scien-
tist and a professional, I tell
them about joh opportunities.
I don’t think this is some-
thing that 4¢ really taught;
students seem to learn it
through osmosis,” be said.

He also said he urges his
students not to simply rely
on text books for their infors
mation, but to read journals
and periodicals to gét the ine

voted by narrow margin
By VICKI ZELDIN
After hours of debate, the
University Senate of the
State University of New York
at Albany yesterday narrow:
ly passed a bil which would
limit the authority of the
campus police to use fire»
arms, set up a committee to
review the campus firearms
policy and ‘establish a com-
mittee to oversee the operar
tions of the security force,
The University Senate is
made up of students, faculty
and administrators, and de-
velops policy and appoints
committees for the running
of the campus, Its actions
must be approved by Univer
sity President Louis T. Bene
et.
THE SENATE action fol-
lows disclosure by leaders of
the campus student govern-
ment that certain security of-
ficers may be carrying fire-
arms ‘without the per
training mandated by law.
Eleven of the college’s 48
campus patrolmen have been
authorized to carry weapons,
and students contend that as
many as six of them may not
have completed the training
required for such authoriza-
tion. State University offi-
cials are studying the situa-
tion.
Yesterday’s Senate action
would permit the officers to
carry guns under four cir-
cumstances:
— For the guarding and
transportation of — large
amounts of cash for the bur-
sar’s office and the Faculty
Student Association;
~Jor arrest by warrant in
+ felony cases or for execution
of search warrants;

THE BILL actually would
only slightly alter the latest:
policy concerning the carry-

which was promulgated last

A number of senators cone

Actions of the senate must belprogress on campus,
By JOHN FAIRBALL
Law enforcement has turned into
serious business at Albany State Uni-
versity where this year, for the first
time ever, campus policemen have
begun carrying firearms.
The decision to allow “selec
tive” arming of campus officers—~a
break with school tradition that so far
has not been followed by other area
cofleges—was made after the crime
rate rose steadily for several years,
“Twenty years ago in any college it
would be tough ‘o find a student ar-
rested for armed robbery or students
carrying firearms,” school security
chief James Williams says.
But since 1953 the crime situation at
the school has changed as radically as
the studénts themselves, Since Janu-
ary there have been seven armed rob:
berles reported on the campus. An ad-
ditional five or six armed robberies
have alsb ocearred but gone unrepory
ed because the victim in each case
was robbed of drugs, according to
Willlams.
During the game time period there
have been five assaults, two cases of
sexual abuse, five of harrassment and
one jnstanes of reckless endanger-
ment,
These violent crime figures. repre-
sent one major reason why school of-
ficials, with support from the Board
of Trustees, electer to allow campus
police to carry firearms. .
Now supervisors, Williams, the as-
sistant security director and patrol

Rane primarily: during the night

“In some situations it's intolerable,
unreasonable to ask a man to appre-
hend an armed susect,” says Wil-
Nams in explaining why the safety of
his men dictates’ that they should
wear guns. A

“They don't ovcur more than 10
times a year... But that's 10 too
many times,” Williams maintains.
Williams also recalls that a school
officer waa shot around last Christ
mas at another state school, Stony
Brook on Long Island.
THE FIREARMS decision was
made also so that the university
would no longer have to hire private
armed guards who have often been
used when large amounts of cash

need to’ serve arrest warrants tan

Second, the James Alien Cullegiate Center at

nol a “three year college," It is, rather, a four
year institution, The timeshortening eltort of the
‘Allen Collegiate Center is in shortening the high
school-callege span from eight to seven years by
combining the senior year of high school with
the first year of college. One need not rest an
opinion rewarding the desirability of combining
the senior year of high school and the first. year
af college solely on the Carnegie Commission re-
port entitled “Less ‘Time, More Options." A talk
‘with any-group of high school seniors will dems
onstrate the need for options other than the lock-
step of four years in high schoo! and four years
in callege with no attempt to cleurly articulate
the experiences. May } refer your readers to an
article ii the New York Timex of June 8, 1973
cntitled “High Schools Try to Kase Boredom of
the Final Tern.” Thal same issue of the Times

Jeans Blue,
Fervor Gone
AI By JOHN FAIRHALL
Three and a half years ago, blue-jean-
clad students staged protest demonstra-
tions and shut down Albany State Uni...
versity.
Today at the school, students are still
wearing blue jeans but the political ac-
tivism that was ignited in 1970 by the
Kent State University killings and the
Cambodia invasion has disappeared or
changed, And, students say, the populari-
ty of drug use that boomed during that
stonmy year has leveled off, too.
At Russell Sage College in Troy, where
taltered blue jeans have -just recently
come into vogue, the strongest urges
among the girls are for more lenient.
rules and the freedom — long taken us
granted by Albany State students —
go where they want, when they want po
with whomever they want.
Now, in 1973, the energy that went into
student activism has been channeled into
“establishment” outlets like student gov+
ernment, or has been given to a new, se-
rious A concern about grades and jobs.
‘As for drugs, marijuana abounds, but al
coho} is becoming once again a student
favorite in the face of shortages of cet
tain pill concoctions.
Other, traditional social outlets such as
fraternitics and sororities are also thriv-
ing, bul there is mixed opinion among
students as to their future on campus.
On. the political, front, senior student
-TRStNpeON says, “donk think,
wre are any tssiies that involve stu-
dents now...After the election of 1972,
there hasn't been anything of importance
for the college sludents to get into.”
‘There was a sizable series of protests
last. spring but the issues then involved
academic questions, not national or even
local political concerns. So far this year,
the largest gathering of students outside
ofa om has been a rally in sup-
port or Israel.
Kric Mendelson, a recent graduate and.
4 freshman at the time of the 1970 dem-
onstrations, believes that students
“turned inward” when they found that
their mass protests were ineffective.
‘That discovery, plus the realization that
the “counterculture” ideas prevalent
then — communes, for example did not
provide a ‘viable alternative,” turned
students toward the idéological enemy,
the “SYSTEM,” he thinks.
Al Senia, & forttier editor 8F the school
newspapel” and a graduate iy. as
well, agrees that students: became ftus+
trated when they did ‘hot perceive imme-
diate results from their springtime pro-
tests in. 1970. Since then, “Politics has -
been translated into the establishment
channels” such .as student goverdment,

‘That serious attitude towards classes
and a career usually hits most students
in their last two years of college. the stu-
dents say. In the junior and Senior years,
Mendelson says, students discover them-
selves.
But the first two years — that’s a dif-
ferent story. “I think freshman and soph-
omore years you spend discovering the
college experience,“ Mendelson declares,
And that means the opporturtity to sam-
ple different lifestyles and exercise the
freedom that. perhaps, only college stu-
dents enjoy.
Some of ‘that freedom is sexual. But,
students report, orgies, bed-hopping and
promiscuity are not a part of the Albany
State University scene.
“I think the sexual revolution was
thing was really overplayed by the me- .
dia.” Senia says. “You're just not going
t o hop into bed with anyone who hap-
pens along.” he insists.
What has happened, he, says.. is that *
a greater number of people of our gener-
ation...can relate, to a sexual experience
as something that's just fun,’’ He empha-
sizes, though, that most students view
sex as part of a lasting, emotional rela-
tionship with one other person.
If there's been any reyolutiqn. says
Mendelson. it’s that students believe sex’
can and should be ingluded in relation-
ships built on love. ,
Thompson holds that, “College cam-
puses do remove some o the sexual ta-
boos of the outside society. It's a healthi-
er type of sexual attitude that expressed
on campus.” But, he says,‘"'There are
still virgins on college campuses,"
‘Thompson believes that once-popular
mediums in which men and women meet
— fraternities and sororities -- are de-
clining. “The Greeks are’ dying out on

But. both Thompson and Levine believe

a “reversion back to beer and wine,”

Firearms and police, whether consi-
dered as symbols or tantible objects,
are inextricably related to American
cultural expetience. Unfortunately,
that relationship is rarely considered
hy the police or the public. Even then
interest is likely to be aroused only
when instances of misuse focus atten-
‘tion upon this sometimes lethal instru-
“fient of police response. Accordingly,
concerns raised by some members of
the University community about offi-
cers, carrying firearms are, hopefully,
indications of genuine interest in the
quality of University. police services
notwithstanding the particular rheto-
rie employed. However, certain facts
remain relatively obscure, and need
clarification in order for readers to
understand the issues raised.
Officers sworn in by the President
of the University are peace officers
with, police officer authority. They
share, with local police departments,
general responsibility for enforcement
of; New York criminal statutes on
campus, in addition to providing the
many emergency police services ex-
‘students and faculty. In practice, how-

Professor William P, Brown of the
fons ioeal concern: ee

rather aris control.” :
provided her with material requested by.
the President’s Commission on Law En-
forcement and Adminstration of Justice,
and led to what she describes as “the
bes cheat of criminal justice in the
world.
THE SCHOOL IS THE ALBANY State
University Scheol of Criminal Justice,
where Dr. Warren has been a Robert A.
Pinkerton Visiting Professor for the last
year. She will remain there at least a
year longer, on temporary academic as-
signment, to direct an advanced seminar
and act as a resource person for other
seminars at the school.
“One of the most exciting aspects of
the school is the interdisciplinary back-
grounds here,” she says. “There are fac-
ulty members with backgrounds in law,
socielogy. psychology, and methodology.
And the student body is diverse, with
students with undergraduate majors in
English, history. social sciences, and
physical sciences.”
DR. WARREN, who holds degrees
from Western Reserve University. and
from the University of California, Berke-
ly. where she received a master of arts
degree in psychology and a doctor of phi-
losophy degree in clinical psychology,
has done some exciting work herself in a
variety of aspects of the criminal justice
field, with emphasis on the juvenile sys-
tem in California where clients range up
to 21 years old. (in New York State,
youth services range only to 16 years.)
Tn Celifornia, and here at Albany State
University, Dr. Warren's work seems
based on taking revolutionary, yet ob-
vious, premises, and developing them
into workable programs.
‘THE WORK THAT HAS earned her the
greatest acclaim is her development of
the “Interpersonal Maturity Level Classi-
fication System,"’ now in use throughout
the California Correctional System.
The basis for the system is a simpie
one. [f the paths that led the offender to
the correctional system are different,
and offenders are different from one an-
other, then the treatment. incarceration,
etc.. provided to offer justice for both the
community and the offender must also
be diverse.
For example. take the young person
who is involved in burglary. “For some
it is important to get along with their
peers,” Dr. Warren said “They don’t
want to be called chicken, so they go
along with it. Others may feel anger to

ward their families, and some are nee

“WHAT WE “HAVE TO DO is ‘deter-
mine how this person got into the crimi-
nal justice system and how do we get
him out? The ways to do this are as di-
verse as the reasons that the peopie en-
ter the system.
“You can pick up a youngster, warn
him and send him home, have him spend
time in an intake office. send him to an
institution, or place him back into the
community with a worker who has an in-
tensive minimum case lead. Are you
going to use behavior modification fami-
ly therapy or recreational opportunities?
“The whole issue centers around the
management of or intervention into
someone's’ life. In the past, there has
been an overly simple assumption that
the programs will be good for everybody.
So we developed a system which classi-
fies offenders—their paths into the crimi-
uals 4 have more behavior alterna-
tives.”
AN EXAMPLE IS the young person in-
volved in crime because, “he is at The
mercy of his peer group; their wishes
are absolute law. If the mules to which he
conforms are going to Boy. Scout meet-
ings and the school dance, he is not apt
to enter the ‘criminal justice system. But
if it is burglary, he is to enter the
system. What do you de 2bout that?
“Do you place him in a foster home in
the suburbs where he is conforming to
something else. and try to control his en-
vironment? This is pretty silly. No, you
work with him so he doesn't have to be
at the mercy of his environme nt.”
Dr. Warren is quick to add that the fo-
cus should not be only on the offender.
“In some cases the focus is on the of-
fender and sometimes on society's insti-
tutions.”
“THERE ARE INJUSTICES in the
sense that people whose values: don't ‘eo
incide with the majority culture are apr
to have a different decision made abpur
them and. in the case of racial bias! to
the extent that the crimes have two @f-
ferent labels put on them.” she said.

“There are people who talk about of-

sons, but it is a real distortion to say
that they represent the majority,”
She agreed that money is helpful, and
has a bearing on the systern, but “this is
changing, there is more legal. help for
poor people."
HER WORK INDICATES an active
agreement with the McKay Commission
report statement that ‘the need is not
for more statements but for more ac-

tions reports made since 1870, with “im-

Recession possible,
SUNYA economist says
EDITOR'S NOTE: Where is our economy head-
ed? Will we have a recession or depression? Will
prices continue to rise indefinitely? What will happen
to interest rates? What should a wagé-eurning family
do as a hedge againts inflation? Dr. Louis Salkever,
vice president of research and dean of graduate stud-
ies at the state University of Albany and a nationally-
known economist, discussed these and related ques-
ions with Executive Editor Robert G. Fichenberg.
Following is the first of a five-part series based on
the interview,
By ROBERT G.
TICHENBERG.
Executive Editor
The United States may be
in a recession late this year
or early next year, the fluc.
tuations of the dollar in for-
eign exchange could have
mixed effects for the average
American family and the
boosting of interest nates by
banks will not achieve the
desired results, in the opinion
of economist Louis: Salkever,
vice president for research
and dean of graduate studies
at the State Universiy of
New York at Albany.
Dr. Salkever, who was
head of the economies de-
partment al State U before
being clevated to his present
position, Wiscussed many as-
pects of the present economic
crisis in a wide-ranging inter-
view. He did so with a back-
ground of more than 12 years
as a government economist,
having scrved in the 1940s,
including World War 2, with
the U.S. Treasury Depart-
ment, War Production Board
and National War Labor
Board and in the early 1980s
with the U.S. Department of
Labor and the Wage Stabili-
zation Board. -
Here is the first part of the
tape-recorded interview:
Certainly no one looks for-
ward to that kind of solution.
Q@: Do you think we are
heading for “a recession or
depression? .
DR. SALKEVER: I would
think there are possibilities
of a recession. There are lots
of people who even anticipate.
a deep depression. The trou-

exchange mean to the aver-
age American?
DR. SALKEVER: It de-
pends, If you are an Ameri-
ean who has been employed
abroad by an American firm
and you depend on a salary
established on American
standards, it’s real misery,
because the dollar currently
buys less abroad. But if you
are an American ‘employed
in agriculture in this country.
strangely enough it’s good
news,
Q: Why?
DR. SALKEVER: It has
made American farm prod-
ucts, unless tariff barriers
are raised. more saleable
abroad.
Q: How about the effect on
a wage-earning family here?
DR. SALKEVER: At some
Jater stage, it could be good,
interestingly enough. The
fluctuating value of the dol
Jap abroad is bad right now
because it is one of the con-
tributing factors to inflation.
This is because as long as
we're dependent, as we are,
on the imports, not only of
the finished products, but of
the materials used in making
those products, these prod-
ucts are more costly in dol-
lar terms since the dollar is
worth less in exchange for
foreign currency, So that pro-
duces an inflationary pres-
sure. Bul if, in time. this ine
ereases employment in this
country through the manu-
‘ing value of
facture of products that for-
merly were imported by now
are produced here, the lower-

fect, We haye indications

was unheard of as recently

that some Japanese manu-
facturer would ‘establish’ an

But several now are looking

DR. SALKEVER: This is
precisely the cause.

rate — that is, the interest
rate charged fiy contmercial

ers —was 6 por cout, it al-
ready has risen to 9% per
cent. What does this mean to
the average citizen?
DR. SALKEVER: Here
agaln is dhe of the real-para-
doxes, The notion of in
creased interest rates as a
means of contbatting infla-
tion is a well-established or-
thodox view, In times of pre-
vious overheated conditions
in the economy, the Federal
Reserve System used to de-
liberately try to bring about
a rise in these interest rates.

What should a wage carn

tect themselves in the infla-
tion ©
Dr. Le is Salkever, a na-
tionally known — economist,
vice president for research
and dean of graduate studies
at. State ‘University at Alba-
ny, says they should, if possi-
ble, build up their savings in
a bank account.
Dr. Salkever also had some
conservative — thoughts on
home buying in a wide-rang:
ing discussion of the nation’s
current economic situation.
Following is the fifth and
ast segment of the tape-re-
corded interview:
Q:On the basis of your ex-
The econo omy:
perience as an economist and.
your analysis of our economy
today, how would you advise
a wage-earning family to
ride out the crisis, in terms
of spending, saving and in”
vesting?
DR. SALKEVER: I would
say it depends on their level
of income. Many familie’
have no choice. There are
certain necessities (hey must
have, They will just have to
spend to buy these. Now if
they still have a little surplus.
afier satisfying these needs,
then’ it depends a good deal
on how much knowledge they
have of investing and so
forth. But to be perfectly se
eure, the safest thing for
them to do is to use the sav-
ings deposit.
Q: You mean savings des
Q: What about a young
married couple with one or
two children who want to buy
a home and they see these
rising mortgage rates? Now
the psychology here—and
some economists say this
a self-feeding psychology—is
to buy now against possibility
that the tiortgage rate will
go even higher as against
wailing, against the possibili-
ty that the mortgage rate
will drop.
DR. SALKEVER: Here you
get me on the horms of a di-
lemma, because as an econo-
must. Tm concerned with
maintaining employment and
the welfare of the economy,
I'd love to advise to buy now,
but in all honesty I can't ave
then that advice, Use

where it will all stop. And

thal--nevertheless, a reces~
sion does create an easing
and somewhat of a dropback.
At that point, a simple
change of Federal Reserve
policy could do it. ‘This wuld
affect the supply of money
and the interest the Federal
Reserve charges the banks,
which affects the interest
rates {he banks charge their
tomers. Or a change in
tax policy could affect inter-
est rates
So T think that if T myself
Q: That being the case, I
would think that the prices
then would drop.
DR. SALKEVER: No, You
see, one must assume that
the amount of output has
dropped during this period.
What has happened, you'll
recall, is that we had the
baby boom some time ago
and the number of people
who eventually reach the age
for entering the labor force
has increased, but the output
hag not increased sufficiently
to employ all these people.
Remember, during this peri-
od we had another curious
situation, The total number
of employed persons has in-
creased and the total of un-
employed persons has in-
creased at the same time, So
what you have is a situation -
in which the demand is suffi-
cient for what is produced to
the extent that the prices can
be raised to the point where
people still are willing to pay
that price, but the production
is not sufficiently high to ab-
sorb all the people who join
the labor force. And we've
had that situation for some
time now because the baby
bopm has been adding people
to the labor force all these
years from the 1950s onward.

“Taking it from there”

“Y've never worked with

Mumford, who has stage

Although laden with sho-
wy theatrics — especially
the use of masks that seem

ful as Mrs. Peachum, while

mirably with the difficult
role of highwayman Mach-

“The Beggar’s Opera” is
really something of a show-
case piece for the company,
for while i t is an unqualified
success, it lacks the unity

productions.
MEASURE FOR MEASURE
UNFORTUNATELY, this
production directed by John
Houseman is full of cheap
gimmickry and shtick that
are more reminiscent of Ca-
rol Burnett comedy than a
rep company production of
one of Shakespeare's best
“but most difficult plays.
“Measure for Measure” is
all about high-level govern-
meni corruption and is
therefore hauntingly rele-
vant in these Watergate-rid-

David Schramm copes
well with the excruciatingly
difficult role of Angelo, an
aide to the Duke (David Og-

ALBANY -~ The City Cen-
ter Acting Company may
- well become America’s first
National Repertory Thea-
ter. Withgut doubt, this
inordinately talented troupe
of young actors and act-
resses is the single most ex-
citing thing ever to have
happened in the American
theater.
You had your chance to
see the company in its debut
season at:the Saratoga Per-
forming Arts Center last
summer, and you-had a sec-
ond chance when CCAC re-
turned to SPAC this’ July
and August.
Well count your luck:
stars, because if you stil
haven't seen this troupe in
action, you've got yet ano-
ther chance at Albany State
University this weekend as.
the company presents Anton
Chekhov's ‘The Three Sis-
ters” at 8:30 tonight; John
Gay’s ‘‘The Beggar’s
Opera” at 8:30 p.m. tomor-
row nd Shakespeare's
‘Measure for Measure” at
8:30 p.m. Saturday in the
main theater of SUNYA’s
Performing Arts Center.
Although the production of
“Measure for Measure” is
‘by far the weakest the com-
pany has undertaken to
date, it is purely a case of
uncharacteristically bad di+
rection from artistic head
dohn Houseman and is no
reflection on the talents of
these remarkable young
actors,
The CCAC versions of
“The Beggar's Opera” and
particularly ‘The Three Sis-
ters,” however, show off the
company at its best.
IF YOU see more than
one Cily Center production,
you’re destined te come
away incredulous at the ver-
satilitty of these 20 young
people who six years ago en-
tered the Juilliard School
Drama Division as callow,

If nothnig else, the City

living proof that the concept
of ensemble repertory act-
ing is valid and sound. Neé-
ver before has a company of

ed and played together for

that the crimes are commit

Q: Could police corruption|
exist if only the police were
involved?
DR. BROWN: That brings
up a second major distine-
tiot; that is, the isolated
case of corruption, which is
always likely to occur, as
against the pattern of corrupt
activities. This latter typé,
when it is serious, is very
hard to. continue without it
being known by those who
are in power and who should
be able to control the police.
Q: Whenever we hear
about police corruption, itiev-
tably the “rotten apple”
‘theory is mentioned; that is,
that there always are some
rotten apples in any barrel.
What is your view on this
theory?
DR, BROWN: There are
occasional rotten apples,
‘They usually are psychotical-
Ty rotten, and rare, if the
‘barrel is in good shape. The
average individual acts with
fairly close conformity to the
pressures of the system in
which he works. He's not

example, where a police offi-
cer in a very fine’ depari-
ment ran into an imyossible
money situation and then just
seemed to come apart. He
entered a bank, held it up
-and then just stood outside,
wailing for the police to
come. It was pretty obvious
that he was asking more for
the intervention than at-
tempting to be a criminal.
why the “rotten appie” theo-
Ty is so earnestly advocated,
and there are probably two
* reasons, First, we tend to be-
Tieve that individuals do the
things that we disapprove of
on their own volition, rather
than as a result of the pres-
‘sures around them. We just
don’t believe in determinism.
‘The. second reason is proba-
bly a little more pragmati-
cally important and that is|
that when people espouse the.
“rotten apple” theory, they
leave out of their considera-
tion the system that pro-
duced the rotten apple. In
my view, the rotten apple
thas to be controlled, but is
never nearly as important as
the rotten system,
Q: What kind of conditions
lead to corruption in a police
department?
_DR. BROWN: The major
‘and usual condition is politi-
control, This is the-tradi-
m we inherited ftom the
early period when police de-
partments were created; that
is, back in the last half of the
1th Century, when police
were the almost undisputed
agents of the political group
in pore Where such a tra-
dition has continued, there
often is a belief that the po-
Yice must do: whatever the
political machine wants them
to do. Since what is required
of them often involves a seri-
ous corruption of their offi-
cial functions, it is most like-
ly that the people who are
committing illegal actions for!
the machine eventually will
come to think that they are
entitled to commit similar
(illegal) acts for their own
purposes, go that you get a
tixture of machine and per-
Sonal motivation. Each groun
ets something and the pub-
Ne is “taken,”
Q: Bringing this down to
the. individual. tevel, what,
conditions do you think lead
an individual policeman into
corruption?
-DR. BROWN: The major
problem, of course, is the ex-
{stence of a system which is
interested in demanding cor-
Tupt performance for its own
ends. In such a system, the
uncorrupted policeman is a
danger. He may rebel, refuse
to cooperate, break up what
is a “good thing.” Now, be-
yond this, there is the prob-
Jem of the large ‘variety of
factors in the Ametican po-
lice mission which are dif-
ficult to surface and to be-
come explicit about. .

Second of two articles.
Corruption in a police de-
partment places a heavy bur-
den on the department’s hon-
est policemen, who must
bear the taunts of complain-
ing citizens and who might
have to depend on a corrupt
fellow policeman “for surviie
al in a difficult situation.”
‘This was one of the points
made by Dr. William P.
Brown, one time inspector in
the New York City Police
Department, nationally - rec-
ognized authority on police
corruption and currently a
Stale University professor in
Albany, during an interview
as the State Investigation
Commission (GIC) was wind-
ing up its public hearings on
reported corruption in the Al-
bany Police Department.
Dr. Brown, who rose from
the ranks, from patrolman to
inspector, in a 22-year New
York City police career dur-
ing which he commanded the
Police Academy as well as
the division that centers on
midtown Manhattan, believes
a corrupt policeman “is’ far
worse” and ntére dangerous
than a civilian criminal.
SINCE returning from the
New York City Police De-
partment in 1962,.Dr. Brown.
has been teaching at the
School of Criminal Justice at
‘
the State U in Albany and
has made several studies on
police corruption for federal

Q: When a pattern of corruption does exist,
what effect does this have on the honest and
dedicated members of the police department?
DR. BROWN: The obvious point. of course, is
that. it shames the uniform and the tradition of
which they should be extraordinarily proud; It is
a sad thing to watch a good policeman have to
listen to an angry protest by another citizen
about a corrupt practice in his own department.
How can one be loyal, in the snese that is re-
quired of men who may have to be personally
dependent on their brother officers for survival *
in a difficult situation, when that officer is, or
seems likely to be, a thief, a panderer or a
pusher?
Q: What type of action should a command of-
ficer take when instances of corruption are re-
ported to him?
DR, BROWN; A command officer must be.
able to report to those people above him that the
complaint has been made and he should be pre-
pared lo take—and be supported in taking—~the
most drastic official action to arrest and prose-
cute the individual who is guilty of the corrupt
activities. A corrupt policeman is far worse than.
the individual who commits a similar act in pri-
vate life,
Q: A member of the SIC has said that a
rogue cop is one of the most dangerous persons
in our society, Why is this so?
DR. BROWN: I think there may be a little
difference between my use of “‘bad" or “rogue”
policeman or my use of the concept that a po-
liceman should be held to a higher standard of
accountability than an average citizen, On the
whole concept of the rogue policeman, one of the
difficulties is that very idea of the rogue. . . is
too often used synonymously with the “rotten
apple” and that's bad.
If the reference is to a police officer who, en-
tirely on his own, decides to embark on a crimi+
nal career, certainly he is more dangerous. He
often has the kind of protection which comes
from the loyalty of other policemen—whether or
not that's wise or unfounded. He often has
knowledge of what's going to be done either to
prevent such ¢riminal activity or in response to
it, And he has the weapons and all the power.
that his pol ‘position gives him. These, of
course, are very strong weapons to be placed on
the side of the wrongdoer.
Q: Once a pattern of corruption is discovered
in a police department, what are the most effec-
tive ways of eliminating it?
DR. BROWN: The problem with all patterns
of corruption is that they're just like any other
kind of illness in an administrative body. If
there’s a pattern of corruption, the need is to der
termine what in that police agency are the re-
sults of the corfuption, what supports it and
what could operate against it. The problem then
is to accentuate the positive and eliminate the

the police department or the admunistration
whi h is back of it would support, in any way, a
dishonest policeman,
Q: When political influence plays a role in
the selection of police. officers and their. ad-
vancement, what effect does this have on the ef-
ficiency and integrity of the police force?
DR, BROWN: Well, there's not a necessary
effect, but there’s a very likely one. If, for ex-
ample, the political influence were entirely be
nign, it might well be that the effects could be
positive. However, to the best of my knowledge,
T have never heard of such a situation. Usually,
political influence is. a favor given for anticipat-.
ed favors received, The only favor that. a police
man can give is-an illegal favor,
Q: Once a pattern of corruption takes hold in
a police department, does history show that, the
local nitration usually is able or willing to:
take all the steps necessary to deal with it?
DR. BROWN; ‘The point, If we go back to
what I said previously, is that the pattern of
corruption is usyally tied to the pattern of the
local administration, The greatest tragedy in the
world is to believe that a sick organism can
take care of itself.
Q: That being the case, what is the value of
organizations like the State Investigation Com-
mission in a situation like that?
DR. BROWN: To the extent that the SIC can
bring the facts to public awareness, to the ex-
tent that it can ask for explanations whieh never
would be given to any other member of the com-
munity, such agencies can serve a very useful
and very teal purpose.
“Q: Are there any other steps that should be
taken and can be taken?
DR, BROWN: The biggest step is a continu-
ing campaign for public awareness as to what is
going on and beyond that, as to what shouliiibe

DR, BROWN: Under such conditions, a.aor

Aggression. like beauty.

bolder, says Dr. James Te
deschi, a psychology profes-
sor at State University in Al-
bany.
” Something that appears to
be violent or aggressive in
one. circumstance may not be
considered aggressive in an-
other. Tedeschi said. The ac- ;_
tion is aggressive only when
it is against what is consi-
Tedeschi began the study
of aggression because of his
interest in the psychology of
power.
He and @ graduate student,

1 fensive force and other quali-
ties,
.THE RESULT of that
*, study, Tedeschi commented.
; was that the person in a
mythical bay
overturns the widely held
theory on aggression — prov-
ing it’s a value judgment —
it may affect the interpreta.
tion of studies of viclence on
television.
His small son was watch-
ing a western on television
which seemed to be filled
with violence. When he re-
marked mildly to bis son
“Isn't that kind of Violent?”
the son said, “Oh, no, the
good guys are winning.”
THE SOCIAL psychologist,
who has been at SUNY since
1970. said he wonders “if the
bad guys are punished, then
the so-ealled violence may
not be considered so violent
and if may not promote
much imitation,” the worry
of those opposed to TV viol-
ence.

‘Aggression’ in the eye of beholder.
He added that television
tay desensitize watchers to
violence.
“Small children often judge
by consequence,” he noted
They would imitate those
whose behavior was ap-
proved.
Tedeschi is: critical of the
dominant theories on frustra-
tion and. aggression and be
lieves they are often used in-
terchangeably and thereby
incorrectly. He finds “slip-
pery analogies” in the re-
ports and popular books gen-
eralizing aggression on the
basis of animal studies. He
dees not believe in inate ag-
gression and thinks the ani-
mal theories have fallacies.
If Tedeschi’s theories on
aggression prove the a
cepted ideas, it would hat
implications not only f
dhood development b
also, for example, in the ix
ternational judicial field.
“If no one can define 2

behavior theories are looking
at inferred characteristies
and traits apart from action.
« Tedeschi is interésted in of

ability to threaten others and
maximize credibility. Most of

suit against a department chairman for §100.000. charging
that he acted in a “malicious” and “unlawful” manner re-
garding his request for tenure and promotion.
‘Dayid Goodman. who was associate professor of histo-
¥¥. Said he is suing Richard Kendall, chairni.al of the his-
tery department and acting dean of the div‘ of social
and behavorial sciences. because “‘we feel that .ie acted in
@ Malicious and unlawful manner and ought to be brought
tetaBk for it.”
“KENDALL, REPRESENTED by the State Attorney
‘Geheral's office. has requested that the ‘getion be dis-
tussed. Written arguments in the case were presented to
state Supreme Court Justice Edward Conway a week ago.

According to a spokesman for Conway's office. a decision
is not expected for at least two weeks.
Goodman's actions against his former superior appar-
ently are unprecedented in the 72-campus State University
system.
According to SUNY officials. there has been only: one
case involving a disputed tenure recommendation. A
Plattsburg faculty member has taken the university sys-
tem to court over the decision to refuse him continued em-
ployment. The’case is pending in the U.S. District Court in
the northern district. .
GOODMAN STARTED his employment at SUNYA in
1968. During the 1971 fall semester, he nominated himself
for tenure and promotion. Both requests were denied.

the term of service té expire in June. 1973. When that con-

was denied. i
Geodman filed a grievance under the Senate Profession-
al Association agreement on the campus. It went through
three steps and was denied at each.
In the fall of 1972, Goodman again nominated himself
for tenure and promotion. This time the history ‘5
ment voted te approve his requests, but when his a;
tion went to the final level for approval — the campus
president — it was denied.
THE.ONE-TIME professor’s tenure problems attracted
widespread coverage by the campus media and a grass

Licking weight problem:
a former ‘fatty’ tells: how
A i By JOAN LORENSON
| Shirley ‘Simon has figured out a way not
to be a slave to whipped.cream on cake and
she's now an ex-fatty,
‘The author of a book to be pyblished
Nov. 29, Mrs, Simon, a doctoral student at
/_ University in. aha and one time
I i ‘acher in the Bethlehem Cen-
tral School District, has drawn from re-
search in the field of behavior modification
and her experience in putting theory into
practice. She lost 80 pounds and has kept
the poundage off for a year.
‘IT must have lost hundreds of pounds
during my life,” Mrs. Simon admitted, She
was a chubby child and all her life “I was
elther gaining or dosing.””
SHE HAD been on every kind of diet im-
aginable, had joined diet grotips, f her
own dieter coffee klatsches — nothing
worked for long. ‘
Mrs. Simon’s book,.‘“earnte Be.-Thin”
which is published by Putnams Sons Inc.,
presents a program based on behavior mod-
Mication theory which: breaks the “problem”
to small pats and tackles the parts step by
step. It is based on positive and negative re-
wards and the belief that behavior can be
changed regardless of the causes.
One of the keys, Mrs. Simon éxplained, is
to find out “what it is that is causing you to
eat the wrong things at the wrong time.”
The “subterfuges of fat,” she explained,
“are deceptions which seem true to you,”
HER BOOK has an easy way to check an
individual’s destructive eating patterns.
Mrs. Simon's approach. requires a spiral
notebook andminutes of time, “You change
one thing and experience success and then
you build, build,” Mrs. Simon said in a tele-
phone interview érom her Greenwich, Conn.,
home where she lives with her: husband,
Stanley; and-three sons who don’t have
Weight problems.
“Behavior mod” as it's nicknemed by
eliblogists and others, gets around the
Hediseipline bugaboo. Telling someone
who's overweight he should have will power
in eating is not very helpful, Mrs, Simon ob-
served, ‘The. asset of this program is,. “You
don’t have to have it when you begin. Step
tp step you develop will power.”
“«: Mrs: Simon ponted out that the obese re-
sfodd“alniost automatically to the stimulus
of.-foodrand behavic: modification gives
them satisfaction as they control their be-
havior and environment.
In the book there are five to six extra
suggestions which require about 10 to 15
minutes a day on the part of the dieter,
Mrs. Siomon said. One tip is to use imagery.
“f you're an ice cream freak,” Mrs. Si-
mon gives as an example, “you can conjure
up thoughts that will turn ice cream from-
something tempting — and your downfall —
to something nauseating.”
A MAINTENANCE program is included
which gives specific way s to individualize it
for the dieter and tells how to introduce sat-
isfying foods, Most diets, Mirs. Simon noted,
mals ‘some foods forbidden while hers does
not,
Mrs. Simon said she has read articles in
magaines which have described behavior
modficiation in connection with controlling
weight, but no program was designed for
‘the individual.
“Tim not a strict behaviorist,” Mrs. Si-
mon declared, “and I don’t believe @ person
is the’sum total of his responses to stmulus,
hut behaviorist theories can be used'is tools
to contiol your own behavior and this frees
you.” !
Psychologists are studyitig behavior mod-
ifiation theory and obesity at place such as
Boston University, the University of Penn-
sylvania, the University of Illinois, Colum-
bia University and Stanford University.
Never a writer ‘—‘I only had written re-
search papers’ — Mrs, Simon said she
“tailked the 200page book onto the typewrit-
er.” She had help from editors at the pub-
lishing house.
THE IDEA for a commercial book came
when her fellow students in a SUNYA be- '
havior modification seminar fo T en-
thuiastic about her/experimen tiwth josing
weight, .She recalled they teased, “Hey,
come on, let us see your secret. Wow, if
we're waiting with bated breath to see how
you’re losing weight, what will the world
think?”
One day she looked up literary agents,
queried them, and sold the idea to the third
agent she tried.
Mrs, Simon, who graduated from Brook-
lyn College with g Phi Beta.Kappa key, re-
ceived a master’s degree in education from
Hofstra University. When she gets her doc-
torate, she will use some behavior modifica-
tion ideas to work with children who have
learning problems.

‘Young People Will Correct The
Bad Taste Government’s Left ...’
By P. J. RADER
Lifestyle Staff Writer
“J think young people will
try to correct the bad taste
fais government has left in
their mouths. People who
were at Kent State knew
what this administration
was all about. Now every-
body knows.’
Steve Gerber, president of
the Student Association at
the Stale Unkuersity at Al-
bany (SENYA), is an optim-
ist from Queens, N.Y. He
doesn’t believe college stu-
dens have lost the concern
that made campuses such
as Kent State volatile places
of change in 1969 and 1970.
“T think students today
are trying to find a place for
themselves where they will
be in a position to make
society more effective,”
Steve said.
“Students as a class are
going to demand people
have their basic human
rights. They realize there
are certain things basically
wrong with this country and
they’re waiting for an op-
portunity to change it.
“People are starving.
People don’t have any edu-
cation. People don’t have
basic medical facilities.
This has to change.”’ There
was more than a trace of
anger in Steve’s voice.
Steve’s political ideas
follows very closely those of
Robert Kennedy, @ man

He worked in Kennedy’s «
presidential campaign in
1968 and says he hasn’t real-
_ ly been involved -with off-
campus politics since then,
although he interned with .
Seymour Posner, assembly-*
man from the Bronx, last.
summer.
H students and young
people inf general seem apa-
thetic Steve says there are
some good reasons for it.
“People feel inaffective.
They get disillusioned,” he
said.
Pan
“Look at what kids have
been doing and look where
it’s been getting them.
Defeat. Bobby, McCarthy,
McGovern. A lot of people
who have been hit on the
head don’t want to get hit
twice.”
But he insists students
aren’t apathetic — not real-
ly. “Students are here pri-
“marily to study. Yet cam-
ses aréi’t isolated’ plates.
Pm not convinced this nation
“I know it’s not,” he add-
ed firmly, ‘‘especially when
all those people marched
downtown to show they
wanted the President im-
peached.”
He was referring to a
march that took place Nov.
1 when a crowd of.people as-
sembled downtown in Alba-
ny to show their support for
impeachment.
“¥ think Nixon should re-
sign,” he said i nthe same
firm tone. “If not, impeach
him and convict him. As
soon as Ford (the vice-
presidential nominee) is
confirmed maybe feelings
for impeachment will
mount. I hope so.””
Steve is a strong believer.
in honest polities. He thinks
honestly in government is
not only possible, ‘hut abso-
lutely necessary.
His own political goals in-
clude a job in the legisla-
ture. First he wants to finish
his degree in political
seienceand go-to law
sehool. *
“T want to secure a job
that will teach me how the
world operates,” he said.
Right now, Steve is con-
cerned with defining student
interests and seeing that
they're recognized and acted
upon.
“Student government is
effective because it recog-
nizes its limitations. We at-
tempt to work within chan-
nels.””
To illustrate some of his
government's achieve-
ments, Steve described how
a housing policy at SUNYA
had permitted inspection of

Student government at
UNYA has also eliminated
ai illegal phone fee that
SUNYA was levying on stu-
dents. Some work has been
done to equalize the parking
situation on campus.
“We're really .concerned
with students’ lives,” Steve
said with a look of sincerity,
a look that may carry him
much further than the
SUNYA student body presi-
dency.

~The Gay workshops. mov-
ies and lectures were an at-
tempt to help enlighten and
educate . both Gays and
straights in the area of the
Gay life style. From your
closing comments. I feel it is
a sad thing you did not avail
yourself of the opportunity of
attending any of the func-
tions listed on the poster
which you had in your pos-
session.
“J am sure you will not
print any of this note as it
does tend to contradict the
pretwentieth century atti-
tudes which permeate your
column whenever you men-
tion Gay people’ Remember.
Mr. Fowler. Gay people are
everywhere. We are your
doctors. lawyers. teachers.
newspaper reporters. base-
ball players, favorite barten-
der or your best friend. And.
oh yes. Mr. Fowler. we are
your children.” End quote.
(Aside: The hell you're our
children, Furthermore, you
miss’ the point’ Whatever
your “life style” is or will
continue to be. we do not
think the state has the right
to allow free use of state fa-
cilifies to any outside group
without that group shelling,
out as a group. and not as a
student group’, Since when
are sexual life styles part of
the higher education paid for
by the Man in the Barrel? If
Gay you want to be. that's
your privilege. We couldn't
care less as long as no at-
tempts are made to convert.
We most assuredly do not
consider your group a certi-
fied academic one. And we
would protest just as vocifer-
ously against any other non
academic organization. If the
Gay movement contains the
type of professional people
listed there should be no dif-
ficulty in raising enough cab-
bage to rent other quarters”

By VICKI ZELDIN
Bernard K, Johnpoll, po-
litical professor at State Uni-
versity in Albany (SUNYA)
and long-time critic of the
“university system, says the
college is spending too much
money on administration and
not enough on instruction.
Joinpoll says he is so up-
set about the whole situation,
« which he has complained
about before, that he may
even, run for the State As-
sembly to bring the issue be-
fore-the people.
“What we've really done
here at (SUNYA) in the\past.
six or seven years is to have
weally grown geometrically
as dn administrative unit,”
the outspoken SUNYA profés+
sor said.
“At a time when classes
are growing larger and peo-
ple. are talking about’ in-
creasing the teaching hours
of professors, wouldn’t it be
easier to cut down the num-
ber of administrators and
get more teachets in order
to keep the standard of
teaching where it has been.”
ssor .
rar! ~ Llaura! ep
Johnpoll - produced figures
from a list of salaries for
SUNYA teaching and “ad-
ministrative employes com-
piled by the campus’ Iisti-
tutional Research Depart-
ment which showed that
$13.8 million was spent’ for
the instructional staff ‘and
$4.9 million for administta-
tive costs. “s
The compilation of 1973%4
salary figures included a no-
tation that “persons holding
both an academic and*-ad-
ministrative title are - in-
cluded in the faculty listing
when paid on a faculty
liné.”
The professor,. known, for
his‘attacks on administrative
costs in the university sys-
tem, noted that 16 admini-
strators were drawing gala-
ties of more than $30,000 a
year, ‘or one-third of the ad-
ministrative staff, _ while
only 22 of the more than
800 teacher's at the campus
fell in this salaty bracket.
“The whole theing is topsy

is an educational institutjon,

That Empire State Plaza--the new name
for the South Mall in Albany---will have a
very, sibstantial collection of art is widely
known. The art already there is attracting
attention. Typically, a few weeks ago Alba-
ny Leagye of Arts members toured three of
the Plaz: ouildings to see the paintings and
sculpture already on display.
Less widely known is that the Plaza will
provide facilities for the performing arts as
well. That building shaped like half a gra-
pefruit, now under construction, which will
rise from the Plaza platform on a pedes-
tal, will house a fully equipped theater
seating some 900 persons, Anether audito-
rium facing the same slage will seat some
500 persons.
A survey’ is now being taken throughout
Metroland to determine how the facility will
fit into the scheme of things. The survey,
covers both available facilities for perform-
ing .arts events and organizations that
night wish.to make use of the facility when
it is completed.
What an attractive place that could be to
go to for dance, music, theater and the like.
The setting will be right. The mood would
be right.
‘The facility could prove a boon to cultural
life hereabouts,
Not that there is any lack of cultural ac-
tivities. The State University in Albany.is.
Ae re them Other cOlléges add ihotr
Share. The Albany Institute of History and
Art is never a dull place. The Schenectady
Museum , lively in a different fashion, had
a unique program only a few days ago
When Charlie L. Saxe, Albany industrialist
and art collector gave a talk to a group of
businessmen on collecting art as an’ invest-
ment,
And performing events abound besides
those that take place at the universities and
colleges. .
A major eyent of the early 1974 season
will be the appearance of Beverly Sills in
recital at Albany's Palace Theater, The
event will benefit the Lake George Opera
Festival.
The Albany Symphony Orchestra grows
better each season. Schenectady is.often the
home of touring theater companies and has
events of its own. Troy has its Music Hall,
an acoustical marvel, that provides the op-
portunity for new dimensions in music. And
in Cohoes the old opera house is being res-
tored. What attractive possibilities that will
offer,
So it is proper that we count our cultural
blessings and to know we will have’ more to
count when the Empire State Plaza is com-
pleted with a new theater facility and what
promises to be an eye-popping new state
museum.

TIES ECHO 13/4,
Historic Space Trip To Jupiter, Beyond
By THOMAS O’TOOLE
‘The Washington Post
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. — A silver and gold pio-
neer spacecraft swept by the planet Jupiter Monday night,
surviving a four-hour flight through a radiation zone thou-
sands of times stronger than the Earth’s Van Allen Belt.
“We have reached periapisis (closest approach: te the
planet) and are on our way out,” Pioneer project scient-
ist John Wolfe said just before 10:30 p.m. (EST) Monday.
The instruments aboard Pioneer appear to be functioning
normally.”
Drawn in by a gravitational pull 12 times that of the
Earth, Pioneer 10 sped by the giant planet at 9:24 p.m.
(EST), making space history: by moving at the amazing
speed of 96,400 miles an hour, by far the fastest speed
ever achieved by a man-made object.
| The 11 instruments and cameras aboard the 570-pound
spacecraft sent back readings and pictures to Earth from
a distance of 513 million miles, signals that came in loud
and clear even though they took 46 minutes to reach the
Earth. °
The Pioneer team assembled here at Ames Research
Center was jubilant,.not only because it had built the
first spacecraft to fly to Jupiter but also because that
spacecraft survived a searing ride through radiation belts
bigger and stronger than anybody had suspected.
The spacecraft passed as close as 81,000 miles from the
surface of the planet, crossing a sea of radiation filled
with as many as 100,000 penetrating protons every square
inch of the way.
The number of electrons and protons in the vast radia-
tion fields around Jupiter literally increased 100,000: times
in the four hours that Pioneer took before crossing the
equator of Jupiter at 9:34 p.m.
Wolfe described the last two hours of flight as a “cliff

hanger all the way,” but a little more than 100,000 miles
out from the planet the radiation levels peaked and then
began to fall off. s
The only mishap the spacecraft suffered was the loss of
one picture of Jupiter and a close-up photograph of 10,
one of the 12 moons that circles Jupiter and the closest of
~ four large Galilean moons to the planet surface.
By midnight, the tiny spacecraft was on its way behind
Jupiter and héading out of the solar system, the first
man-made object to do so. Its destination was the distant
constellation Taurus, which Pioneer 10 will reach in eight
million years.
One of the instrument packages aboard Pioneer 10 was
developed by: the Space Astronomy Laboratory, a newly
affiliated research arm of the Department of Astronomy
and Space Sciences at the State University of New York
at Albany. The device will help scientists determine how
the solar system was formed.

Historically
Quenched Esthetic Thirsts
By ROBERT CARTMELL
Art Crithe
‘The summer is almost otti-
cially over but there are not
many people in Capitaland
belleving such a preposterous
statement, The weather fore-
casts over the past two
weeks have tun the words
“humid, hot, and hazy” into
the ground and have added
the words scorching, oven-
like, and warm sponge to
their vocabularies.
‘The heat has had its ef-
fects. Usually when I'm
asked to name the best exhi-
bitions shown this summer,
1" answer bleakly that the
summer seldom provides
good shows and, with the
possible exception of the re-
gional exhibition, they are
never, never shown in Alba-

with imitations of sea waves
and crashing surf designed
for the most part by the
American sculptor Noguchi.
It's in Ametica that the hu- “
manizing effects of fountains
can be - seen. Bombastic
though they are at times,
they have ‘proven a neces:

Fountain in Washington, D.C.

Fountain is one of the focal
points of the city. Designed
by Jacques Lambert in 1927,
it shoots a central geyser 100
feet in the air and for a ship
at night coming into
across Lake Michigan, it turn
mundane Grant Park into a
velestial vision.
THE RECENT “Audito-

the architect Lawrence Hap-

thetic boulders and rock
walls and areas for wading
shows new possibilities for
fountains. The waterfalls look
formidable but are only three
inches thick due to some
marvelous engineering.
‘This principle was pointed
out to me by Albany South
Mall architect Wallace Harri-
son while at the Rockefeller
Center fountain. Grooves are
cut along the falling ledges
to level the water to a glass- “
like curtain. This principle
can be seen at work in the

' among people who come from as far
away as 200 miles to the Tyrone Guthrie
Theater.
“If you're in Albany, we feel you
should be coming here,” said Michael T,
Sheehan, manager of the Albany State
University Performing Arts Center.
Sheehan, who came to the campus last
year after serving as house manager in
the arts complex of the University of
Pennsylvania at Philadelphia, thinks the
Albany university's arts complex should,
or at lest could be the mecca for the
prforming arts in Capitaland, especially
when winter comesand the Saratoga Per-
forming Arts Center is locked up tight.
Encouraged by his boss, Ruth Schmidt,
dean of the division of humanities, Shee-
han would like to attret to the campus
arts center the wider audience beyond
the university walls and hopes the “New
Perspectives” series of events i the right
ticket.
‘The first of its type ever offered by the
university, the series includes theater
performances such as the City Center
Acting Company's production ‘of John
Gay's “The Beggar's Opera, Sept. 21;
music programs such as “Jazz Impact,
Nov. 15, a journey through the history of
Jazz, and the Nikolais Dance Theater,
next April, Besides the touring produc-
tions, campus presentations such as Na-
than Gottschalk’s University — Commun-
ity Orchestra, Patricia Snyder's child-
ren’s theater and the university theater
pro-department production of Schiller's
“May Stuart,” coming.up Oet. 17 throogh
21 are included.
‘The series was proposed by Lewis
Welch, vice president for University Af-
fairs, Shechan explained. Since most of
the principal programming for the arts
center is made a year ahead, and “we
know whal’s going to be decent.” it was.
decided to include in the series events
“already on the books,” he said.
“Wor the first time on the Atbanycatn-
pus, performing arts events as well* as

But it’s after a ticket is sold to some-

the bigger. problem and he finds himself,
“caught in a gap.”

community, he said, and the music fel-
Towing is very strong.
Of course, Sheehan pointed out, if the
100 musicians in theUniversityCommunity
Orchestra bring five friends apiece, the
main theater is filled.
Sheehan, a tall, lanky blond who’spent
his first summer in organizing the Ta-
Times Unien
coic Project, a resident arts group based
at the Spencertown Academy near Chath-
am, believes area residents may get into
the habit of coming to the university for
arts programs.
So people can find the arts ceter, he'd
like the adminstration to have the cam-

" Something that appears to

considered aggressive in an-
other. Tedeschi said. The ac-;
overturns the widely held
theory on aggression — prov-
ing it’s a value judgment —
it may affect the interpreta-
tion of studies of violence on
television.
His smaii son was watch-
ing a western on television
which seemed to be filled
with violence. When he re
marked mildly to his son.
“Isn't that kind of Violent?”’
the son said, “Ob, no, the
good guys are winning.”
THE SOCIAL psychologist,
who has been at SUNY since
1970. said he wonders “if the
bad guys are punished, then
the so-ealled violence may
not be considered so violent
and it may not promote
much imitation,” the worry
of these opposed to TV viol-
ence.

‘Agoression’ in the eye of beholder.
He added that television
may desensitize watchers to
violence.
“Small children often judge
by consequence,” he noted.
They would imitate those
whose behavior was ap-
proved.
Tedeschi is: critical of the
theories on frustra
tion and. aggression and be
lieves they are often used in-
terchangeably and thereby
incorrectly. He finds “‘stip-
pery analogies” in the re-
ports and popular books gen-
eralizing aggression on the
basis of animal studies. He
does net believe in innafe ag-
gression and thinks the ani-
mal theories have fallacies. .
If Tedeschi’s theories on
aggression seprave the a
cepted ideas, it would hat
implications not only f&
development b
also, for example, in the i:
temational judicial field.
“If no one can define 2
gression,” he said, “exce
on a subjective basis. th:
all the effort of internation
law to determine aggressi

it is against what is consi-
dered “normal™ behavior.
Tedeschi began the study
of aggression because of his
interest in the psychology of

and led te what she describes as “the
best school of criminal justice in the
world.”
THE SCHOOL IS THE ALBANY State
University Scheol of Criminal Justice,
where Dr. Warren has been a Robert A.
Pinkerton Visiting Professor for the last
year. She will remain there at least a
year longer, on temporary academic as-
signment, to direct an advanced seminar
and act as a resource person for other
seminars at the school.
“One of the most exciting aspects of
the school is the interdisciplinary back-
grounds here,” she says. “There are fac-
ulty members with backgrounds in law,
sociology, psychology, and methodology.
And the student body is diverse, with
students with undergraduate majors in
English, history. social sciences, and
Physical sciences.”
_ DR. WARREN, who holds degrees
from Western Reserve University, and
from the University of California, Berke-
ly. where she received a master of arts
degree in psychology and a doctor of phi-
losophy degree in clinical psychology,
has done some exciting work herself in a
variety of aspects of the criminal justice
field, with emphasis on the juvenile sys-
tem in California where clients range up
to 21 years old. (In New York State,
youth services range only to 16 years.)
In Clifornia, and here at Albany State
University, Dr. Warren's work seems
based on taking revolutionary, yet ob-
vious, premises, and developing them
into workable programs.
‘THE WORK THAT HAS earned her the
greatest acclaim is her development of
the “ “Interpersonal Maturity Level Classi-
fication System,” now in use throughout
the California Correctional System.
The basis for the system is a simple
one. If the paths that led the offender to
the correctional system are different,
and offenders are different from one an-
other, then the treatment. incarceration,
etc., provided to offer justice for both the
community and the offender must also
be diverse.
For example. take the young person
who is invelyed in burglary. “For some
it is important to get along with their
peers,” Dr. Warren said. “They don’t
want to be called chicken, so they go
along -with it. Others may feel anger to-

ward their families, and some are neg

“WHAT WE “HAVE TO DO is deter-
mine how this person got into the crimi-
nal justice system and how do we get
him out? The ways to do this are as di-
verse as the reasons that the people en-
ter the system.
“You can pick up a youngster, warn
him and send him home, have him spend
time in an intake office. send him to an
institution, or place him back into the
community with a worker who has an in-
tensive minimum case lead. Are you
going to use behavior medification fami-
ly therapy or recreational opportunities?
“The whole issue centers around the
management of or intervention into
someone's life. In the past, there has
been an overly simple assumption that
the programs will be good for everybody.
So we developed a system which classi-
fies offenders—their paths into the crimi-

tives.
AN EXAMPLE IS the young person in-
volved in crime because, “he is at ‘the
mercy of his peer group; their wishes
are absolute law. If the rules to which he
conforms are going te Boy. Scout meet-
ings and the school dance, he is not apt
to enter the criminal justice system. But
if it is burglary, he is apt to enter the
system. What do you do about that?
“De you place him in a foster home in
the suburbs where he is conforming to
something else, and try to control his en-
vironment? This is pretty silly. No, you
work with him so he doesn't have to be
at the merey of his environme nt.”
Dr. Warren is quick to add that the fo
cus should not be only on the offender.
“In some cases the focus is on the of-
fender and sometimes on society's insti-
tutions.”
“THERE ARE INJUSTICES in the
sense that people whose values don't eo
incide with the majority culture are apt
to have a different decision made abput
them and. in the case of racial. bias? to
the extent that the crimes have two &f-

that they represent the majority.”
She agreed that money is helpful, and
has a bearing on the system, but “this is

HER WORK INDICATES an active
agreement with the McKay Commission
report statement that ‘the need is not

_A former Siate University in Albany professor has filed

‘Tho attitude that it is “all

part of the rationale for the

Lieberman emphasized
that the object of opposition

(Continued from Page One)
Q: When a pattern of corruption does exist,
what effect does this have on the honest and
dedicated members of the police department?
DR. BROWN: The obvious point. of course, is
that it shames the uniform and the tradition of
which they should be extraordinarily proud. It is
a sad thing to watch a good policeman have to
listen to an angry protest by another citizen
about a corrupt practice in his own depattment.
How can one be loyal, in the snese that is re-
quired of men who may have to be personally
dependent on their brother officers for survival’
in a difficult: situation, when that officer is, or
seems likely to be, a thief, a panderer or a
pusher?
Q: What type of action should a command of-
ftcer take when instances of corruption are te-
ported to him?
DR. BROWN: A command officer must be
able to report to those people above him that the
complaint has been made and he should be pre-
pared to take—and be supported in taking~the
most drastic official action to arrest and prose-
cute the individual who is guilty of the corrupt
activities. A corrupt policeman is far worse than
the individual who commits a similar act in pri-
vate life,
Q: A.member of the SIC has said that a
rogue cop-is one of the most dangerous persons
in our society. Why is this 90?
DR. BROWN: I think there may be a little
difference between my use of “bad” or “rogue”
policeman or my use of the concept that a po-
liceman should be held to a higher standard of
accountability than an average citizen. On the
whole concept of the rogue policeman, one of the
difficulties is that very idea of the rogue .. . is
too often used synonymously with the “rotten
apple” and that's bad.
If the reference is to a police officer who, en-
tirely on his own, decides to embark on a crimi:
nal career, certainly he is more dangerous. He
often has the Kind of protection which comes
from the loyalty of other policemen—whether or
not that's wise or unfounded. He often ‘has
knowledge of what's going to be done either to
prevent such ¢riminal activity or in response to
it. And he has the weapons and all the power.
that his police ‘position gives him. These. of
course, are very strong weapons to be placed on
the side of the wrongdoer.
Q: Once a pattern of corruption is discovered
in a police department, what are the most effec-
tive ways of eliminating it?
DR. BROWN: The problem with all patterns
of corruption is that they're just like any other
kind of illness in an administrative body. If
there's a pattern of corruption, the need is to de
termine what in that police agency are the re-
sults of the corruption, what supports it and
what. could operate against it. The problem then
is to accentuate the positive and eliminate the
negative. This should be done as openly and def-
initely as possible. The end point should be that
nobody in the department or in the public should
have’ any reasonable grounds for believing that
DR. WILLIAM P. BROWN
C ‘orrupt individuals . . . are extremely unimpor-
tant in contrast to the corrupt systents that. pro-
duce them.’ i
the potice department or the administration
which is back of it would support, in any way, a
dishonest policeman.
Q: When political influence plays a role in
the selection of pélice- officers and their ad-
vancement, what effect does this have on the ef-
ficiency and integrity of the police force?
DR. BROWN: Well, there's not a necessary
effect, but there's a very likely one. If, for ex-
ample, the political influence were entirely be-
nign, it might well be that the effects could be
positive, However, to the best of my knowledge,
T have never heard of such a situation. Usually,
political influence is a favor given for anticipat-.
ed favors received. The only favor that. a police-
man can give.is an illegal favor,
Q: Once a pattern of corruption takes hold in
a police department, does history show that the
local vation usually is able or willing to:
take all the hecessary to deal with it?
DR, BROWN: The point, If we go back to
what I said previously, is that the pattern of
corruption is uspally tied to the pattern of the
local administration. The greatest tragedy in the
world is to believe that a sick organism can
take care of itself.
Q: That being the case, what is the value of
organizations like the State Investigation Com-
mission in a situation like that?
DR. BROWN: To the extent that the SIC can
bring the facts to public awareness, to the ex-
tent that it can ask for explanations whith never
would be given to any other member of the com-
munity, such agencies can serve a very useful
and very real purpose,
_Q: Are there any other steps that should be
taken and can be taken?
DR. BROWN: The biggest step is a continu-
ing campaign for public awareness as to what is
going on and beyond that, as to what shouldbe
‘ °
done. The average American too offen isegin-
placent about corruption in public office and it
seems tome we have to keep bringing home the
7
. realities, including the reality that every.rid-
stance of corruption results in dimitiution of the
quality of life, for which we .pay. ad which
should be the major uiivantage of Twist eee
society,
Q: What, if anything, can an in

Corruption hard on honest cop
ROBERT G.
FICHENBERG
Executive Editor
Second of two articles
Corruption ina police de-
partment places a heavy bur-
den on the department’s hon-
est policemen, who must
bear the taunts of complain-
ing citizens and who might
have to depend on a corrupt
fellow policeman “for surviv-
al in a difficult situation.”
This was one of the points
made by Dr. William P.
Brown, one time inspector in
the New York City Police
Department, nationally - rec-
ognized authority on police
corruption and currently a
State University professor in
Albany, during- an interview
as the State Investigation
Commission (SIC) was wind-
ing up its: public hearings on
. reported corruption in the Al-
bany Police Department.
Dr. Brown, who rose from.
the ranks, from patrolman to
inspector, in a 22-year New
York City police career dur-
ing which he commanded the
Police Academy as well as
the division that centers om
midtown Manhattan, believes
a corrupt policeman “is! far
worse” and midré dangerous
than a civilian criminal.
SINCE returning from the
New York City Police De-
partment in 1962, Dr. Brown
has been teaching at - the
School of Criminal Justice at
the State U in Albany and
has made several studies on
police corruption for federal
agencies, as well as for the
New York Police Depart-
ment,
Following is the second
segment of the tape-recorded
interview, edited to conform

Political influence and com

Criminal Justice at the State

“change for a pad—a pay-|
ment, (2) Extortion. This 1
the shakedown of those peo-
ple who fear official action.
(3) Other crimes—burglaries
and robberies (by police),
where the police power or
connection is involved. The
officers who commit the
crimes would be the same as
any other criminal, except
that the crimes are commit-
ted with that extra cushion of
police position and the infor-
mation it provides.
Q: Could police corruption
exist if only the police were
involved?
DR. BROWN: That brings
up a.second major distinc-
tion; that is, the isolated
case of corruption, which is
always likely to occur, as
against the pattern of corrupt
activities. This latter typé,
when it is serious, is very
hard to. continue without it
being known by those who
are in power and who should
be able to control the police.
Q: Whenever we hear’
about police corruption, intev-
{tably the “rotten apple”
theory is mentioned; that is,
that there always are some
rotten apples in any barrel.
What is your view on this
theory?
DR. BROWN: There are
occasional rotten apples.
'Phey usually are psychotical-
ly rotten, and rare, if the
‘barrel is in good shape. The
average individual acts with
fairly close conformity to the
pressures of the system in
which he works. He’s not
likely to deviate . .. and if
there is a deviation, it usual-
jy is something like an out-
break. .
example, where a police offi-
cer in a very fine depart-
ment ran into an imgossible
money situation and then just
seamed to come apart. He
entered a bank, held it up
-and then just stood outside,
waiting for the police to
come. It was pretty obvious
that he was asking more for
the intervention than at
tempting to be a eriminal.
come explicit about.
why the “rotten apme’’ theo-
ry is so earnestly advocated,
and there are probably two!
reasons. First, we tend to be-
Tieve that individuals do the
things that we disapprove of|
on their own volition, rather
than as a result of the pres-
‘sures around them, We just
don’t believe in determinism.
‘The. second reason is proba-
bly a little more pragmati-
eally important and that is’
that when people espouse the
“rotten apple” theory, they
leave out of their considera-
tion the system that pro-
duced the rotten apple. In|
my view, the rotten apple
has to be controlled, but is
never nearly as important as
the rotten system,
Q: What kind of conditions
lead to eorruption in a police
department?
,DR, BROWN: The major
‘and usual condition is politi-
val control. This is thetradi-
mn we: inherited from the
early period when police de-
partments were created; that
is, back in the last half of the
18th Century, when police
were the almost undisputed
agents of the political group
in power. Where such a tra-
dition has continued, there
often is a belief that the po-
Tice must do’ whatever the
political machine wants them
to do. Since what is required
Of them often involves a seri-
ous corruption of their offi-
cial functions, it is most like-
ly that the people who are
committing illegal actions for}
the machine eventually will
come to think that they are
entitled to commit similar
(illegal) acts for their own
purposes, so that you get a
mixture of machine and per-
Sonal motivation. Each grour
ets something and the pub-
ic is “taken,”
Q: Bringing this. down to
the individual. level, what.
conditions do you think lead
an individual policeman into’
corruption?
DR. BROWN: The major
problem, of course, is the ex-
fstence of a system which is
interested in demanding cor-
Tupt performance for its own
ends. In such a system, the
uncorrupted policeman is a
danger, He may rebel; refuse
to cooperate, break up what.

Gene Lesser restaged the
play from the version he
presented so successfully in
New York in 1972.
Although laden with sho-
wy theatries — especially
the use of masks that seem
to serve absolutely no fun-

duction is stunning to look
at. Costumes,, makeup and
choreography are dazzling,
p.rticularly in the overture
and the finale.
Patti LuPone as Lucy
Lockitt and Cynthia Her-,

totally endearing in their
performances, though Miss
LuPone plays her Lucy with
a bit more sophistication
than the part demands...
Mary Lou Rosato is delight-
ful as Mrs, Peachum, while

“The Beggar’s Opera” is
really something of a show-

for while it is an unqualified
success, il lacks the unity

productions.
MEASURE FOR MEASURE
UNFORTUNATELY, this
production directed by John
Houseman is full of cheap
gimmickry and shtick that
are more reminiscent of Ca-
rol Burnett comedy than a
rep company production of
one of Shakespeare's best
“but most difficult plays:
“Measure for Measure” is
all about high-level govern-
ment corruption and is
therefore hauntingly rele-
vant in these Watergate-rid-
den days.

well with the excruciatingly
difficult role of Angelo, an
aide to the Duke (David Og-
den. Stiers) who sets up
double standards in order to

Houseman directs Pom-

there actually a gasoline

DR. SALKEVER: No. I

° Q: For what reason?
DR. SALKEVER: It's one
of the best rationales for de-
fense of the depiction allow-
ance. If there's a great be-
Nef that there's a gasoline
shortage, any attempt to re-
duce the depletion allowance
would receive less support.
Q: How about the tneury
that there is a connection be-
tween. the ‘campaign for the
Alaska pipeline and the gaso-
line shortage, the message
~ being that if we had this
pipeline we'd have no gaso-

DR. SALKEVER: That’s
very much a factor, To over-
come the objections of the
.environmentalists, if you can
create the impression that
the shortage and the crisis
are so urgent that we don't
have time to consider the en-
vironmental arguments, the
way for pushing ahead with
the pipeline would be much
easier,

The troupe returns to the
area this weekend to per-
form at 8:30 p.m. Thursday,
Friday and Saturday in the
main theater of the’ per-
forming arts center at Alba-
ny State University.
Shakespeare's “Measure
for, Measure” will be per-
formed Thursday; John
Gay’s ‘‘The Beggar’s
Opera” will be staged Fri-
day, and Anton Chekhov's
“The Three Sisters” will be
performed Saturday.
All three productions were
premiered to unanirnous
critical acclaim in Sara-
toga.
And, while his business
requires that he hide be.ind
the spotlights of glory, no
small part of the company’s
success is due to Peter
Mumfor.
It is one of Mumford’s
jobs, in fact, to keep the
company together while on
the road. “The company
manager tells me where
we're going and when we’re
going there, and I take it
from there,” he says.
“Taking it from there’’
can be difficult, however,
with a company such as this
one,
“I’ve never worked with
more talented or more
exasperating people,” says
Mumford, who has stage
managed some of the big-
gest shows on Broadway.
“They're so creative that I
excuse things I’d never put
up with otherwise.”
The 20 young actors who
have been together since
they entered the Juilliard
School Drama Division six
years ago are known. in
Murford’s book for writing
graffiti on walls and doing
something funty lynen
they’re supposed to be pos-
ing for photography calls.
‘rhey: Fests} me because
they think I’m trying to be a
disciplinarian,” he notes,
“but ’'m just trying to make
their work load lighter. It
takes three hours for a
photo call with them, but
they could do it in one hour.
and then go home and have
fun, But [excuse everything:
and write it off to their en-
freaible talent and creativ-,
y.”
Mumford, 28 and a native
of Tom’s River, NiJu, is also
responsible for virtually av-
ery technical aspect of ev-
ery company production.
That involves ‘props, sets,
lights and sound.
Much tore, however,
Mumford. also is responstiie
for maintaining “the artistic
intentions and the artistic
integrity” of every show.
Once a director completes
his task, he usually leaves it
in Mumford’s hands to car-
ry on with rehearsals to
Keep a show in shape. When
any directoral questions ,
arise, Mumford: must an-
Swer them.
“T'll Iet the actors do so-
mething if { think it is in the
scope of. what a director
wanted,” he says, “but it's
not easy because I have to
protect everybody con-
cetnied.”
Tt is also tempting, he. con-
fesses, to let his own judg.
ment influence ‘his deci.

sdiously: make an: effort to

In this respect Mumford
has it easier than most oth
er stage managers, for
while most of his colleagues
use the position as a stepp-
ing stone to a career in di-
recting, Mumford is truly a
professional stage ‘manager
who feels that “this is my
calling.”
He’ admits being stage

would be.
In a Broadway, show with
more music, props and sets
there would be a lot more
for a stage manager to do.
“But T’ve leartied to fall’ in
love with this company,” he
confesses, ‘“‘There’s someth-
ing magical about it.’?
The proof of the pudding,
he’s the first to admit, is
that he is actuaslly taking

What should a wage carn

Dr. Louts Salkever, a na-
tionally known — economist,

at, State ‘University at Alba-
ny, says they should, if pos:
ble, bud up their savings in

Dr. Salkever also had some
conservative thoughts on.

ing discussion of the nation’s
current economic situation.
Following is the fifth and

of spending, saving and in-”

DR. SALKEVER: [ would
say it depends on their level
of income, Many families
have no choice, There are
certain necessities they must
have. They will just have to
spend to buy these. Now if”
they still have a litte surplus
after satisfying these needs,
then it depends a good deal
‘on how much knowledge they
have of investing and so
forth. But to be perfectly se+

them to do is to use the save

two children who want to buy
a home and they see these

the psychology here—and
some economists say this is
w seli-feeding psychology
to buy now against possibility
that the niortgage rate will
go even higher as against
waiting, against the possibili-
ty that the mortgage rate
will drop.
DR. SALKEVER: Here you

femma, because as an econo-

but in all honesty T can’t give
them that advice, because
the inte: rates are at re-

where iH will all stop. And
while a recession does not re-
turn prices and interest rates
to old levels—remember, it
lakes a real depression to do
that—nevertheloss, a reces-.
sion does create an easing
and somewhat of a dropback
At that point, a simple
change of Federal Reserve
policy could do it. This wuld
affect the supply of money
and the interest the Federal
Reserve charges the banks,
which affects the inlerest

Q: That being the case, I
would think that the prices
then would drop.
DR. SALKEVER: No. You
see, one must assume that
the amount of output has
dropped during this period,
What has happened, you'll
recall, is that we had the
baby boom some time ago
and the number of people
who eventually reach the age
for entering the labor force
has increased, but the output
has not increased sufficiently
to employ all these people.
Remember, during this peri-
ad we had another curious
situation, The tolal number
of employed persons has in-
creased and’ the total of un-
employed persons has in-
creased at the same time. So
what you have is a situation
in which the dernand is suffi-
cient for what is produced to
the extent that the prices can
be raised to the point where
peopte still are willing to pay
that price, but the production
is not sufficiently high to ab-
sorb all the people who join
the labor force. And we've
had that situation for some
time now because the baby

interestingly enough. The
fluctuating value of the dol
lak abroad is bad right now
becatise it is one of the con-
tributing factors to inflation.
This is because as long as
we're dependent, as we are,
on the imports, not only of
the finished products, but of
the materials used in making
those products, these prod-
ucts are more costly in dol-
lar terms since the dollar is
worth less in exchange for
foreign currency. So that pro-
duves an inflationary pres-
sure. But if, in time. this in-
creases employment in this

rate — that is, the interest
rate charged by comimercial

ers —was 6 per cenit. It al-
ready has risen to 9% per
cent, What does this mean to
the average citizen?
DR. SALKEVER: Here
again is ohe of the real. para-
doxes, The notion of in-
creased interest rates as a
means of combatting infla-
tion is a well-established or-
thodox view. In times of pre-
vious overheated conditions
in the economy, the Federal
Reserve System used to de-
liberately try to bring about

SUNYA economist says
EDITOR’S NOTE: Where is our economy head-
ed? Will we have a recession or depression? Will
prices continue to rise indefinitely? What will happen
to interest rates? What should a wage-earning family
do as a hedge againts inflation? Dr. Louis Salkever,
vice president of research and dean of graduate stud-
ies at the state University of albany and a nationdlly-
known economist, discussed these and related ques-
ions with Executive Editor Robert G. Fichenberg.
Following is the first of a five-part series based on
the interview.
By ROBERT G.
FICHENBERG
Executive Editor
The United States may be
in a recession late this year
or early next year, the flue-
tuations of the dollar in for-
eign exchange coukl have
mixed effects for the average
American family and the
boosting of interest rates by
banks will not achieve the
desired results, in the opinion
of economist Louis: Salkever,
vice president for research
and dean of graduate studies
at the State Universiy of
New York at Albany.
Dr. Salkever, who ‘was
head of the economies de-
partment at State U before
being elevated to his present
position, Giscussed many as-
pects of the present economic
crisis in a widex inter-
view. He did so with a back
ground of more than 12 years
as a government economist,
having scrved in the 1940s,
including World War 2, with
the U.S, Treasury Depart-
ment, War Production Board
and National War Labor
Board and in the early 1950s
with the U.S. Department of
Labor and the Wage Stabili-
zation Board, .
Here is the first part of the
tape-recorded interview:
Certainly no one looks for-
ward to that kind of solution,
Q: Do you think we are

SUBJECT: Attached Clippings

The attached group of elippings represents a sample of those which
appeared in predominantly area papers during the period since the
| previous group of clippings was made available in early October. There
is some overlap since sdme ‘of the clippings are not received through
our service until after production is necessary for the individual batch.
We are grateful to see the extent and scope reflected by this particular
group since the newspapers with which we work are experiencing diffi-
culties in obtaining paper for their regular daily editions. Several
| of them have reduced the number of pages per issue and almost all of them
have reduced the amount of space available for editorial matter while
maintaining the extent of their advertising matter.
An informal and casual observation_of the pages of the papers reviewed
during this period indicates that this institution has recéived a much
larger percentage of space allocated to describing issues in higher
education than the total experienced by neighboring institutions. We
are grateful for this recognition of the value of the activities being
conducted at State University at Albany. MV
Continued efforts are being made through outreach to the deans and
department chairmen by means of a series of special meetings which are
now being conducted, We find that as a result of these meetings we are
receiving items which are proving to be of value to us and to the media
with which we work.

Licking weight problem:
a former “fatty” tells: how
eps By JOAN LORENSON
i ‘Shirley Simon has figured out a way not
to be a slave to whipped.cream on cake and
she's now an ex-fatty.
~The author of a book ty be published
Nov. 29, Mrs. Simon, a doctoral student at
Eeaiverety in, Apa and one time
Seti rin ie Bethlehem Cen-
tral’ School District, has drawn from re-
search in the field of behavior modification
and her experience in putting theory into
practice. She lost 80 pounds and has kept
the poundage off for a year,
“I must have lost hundreds of pounds
during my life,” Mrs. Simon admitted, She
was a chubby child and all her life “I was
either gaining or dosing.”
SHE HAD been on‘every kind of diet im-
aginable, had joined diet groups, formed her
own dicter coffee klatsches — and nothing
worked for long. +
Mrs, Simon's book, “Learaste Be~Dhin”
which is ipublished by Putnams Sons Inc.,
presents a program based on behavior mod-
ification theory which breaks the “problem”
to small pats and tackles the parts step by
step. It is based on positive:and negative re-.
wards and the belief that behavior can be
changed regardless of the causes.
‘One of the keys, Mrs. Simon éxplained, is
to find out “what it is that is causing you to
eat the wrong things at.the wrong time.”
The “subterfuges of fat,” she explained,
“are deceptions which seem true to you,”
HER BOOK has an easy way to check an
individual’s destructive'eating patterns.
Mrs, Simon’s approach: requires: a-spiral
notebook andminutes. of time. “You change
one thing and experience success and then
‘you build, build,” Mrs, Simon said in a tele-
phone interview from her Greenwich, Conn.,
home where she lives with ‘her: husband,
Stanley, .and three sons who don’t have
‘weight problems.
“*@Behavior mod” as it's nicknemed by
Besemlogicts and’ others, gets around the
selfedigeipline bugaboo. Telling someone
who’s' overweight he should have will power
in egting is not very ‘helpful, Mrs. Simon ob-
served, The. asset ofthis program is, “You
don’t Have to have it when you begin. Step
‘tp step you develop will power.”
ve'Mrs: Simon ponted out that the obese re-
stondalmost automatically to the stimulus
of. food and behavicr modification gives
them satisfaction as they control their be-
havior and environment,
In the book there are: five to six extra
suggestions which require about 10 to 15
minutes a day on the part of the dieter,
Mrs. Siomon said. One tip is to use imagery.
“If you’re an icecream freak,” Mrs, Si-
mon gives as an example, “you can conjure
up thoughts that will turn ice cream from-
something tempting —- and your downfall ~
to something nauseating.”
A MAINTENANCE program is included
which gives specific way s to individualize it
for the dieter and tells to introduce sat-
isfying foods. Most diets, Mrs. Simon noted,
make some foods forbidden while hers does
not,
‘Mrs. Simon said she has read articles in
magaines which have described behavior
modficiation in connection with controlling
weight, but no program was designed for
the individual,
“Tim not a strict behaviorist,” Mrs. Si-
mon declared, “and I don’t believe’ person

to control your own behavior and this frees

Never a writer ‘—'I only had written re-
search papers” — Mrs. Simon said she
“talked the 200-page book onto the typewrit;
er.” She ‘had help from editors atthe pub-

THE IDEA for a commercial book came
when her fellow students in a SUNYA be- '

‘Young People Will Correct The

Lifestyle Staff Writer
“T think young people will

Pais government has left in
their mouths. People who
were at Kent State knew
what this administration
was all about. Now every-
body knows.’
Steve Gerber, president of
the Student Association at
the State. University at_Al-

ist from Queens, N.Y. He
doesn’t believe college stu-
dens have lost the concern
that made campuses such
as Kent State volatile places
of change in 1969 and 1970.
“I think students today
are trying to find a place for
themselves where they will
be in a position to make
society more effective,”
Steve said.,
“Students as a class are
going to demand people
have their basic human
rights. They realize there
-are certain things basically
wrong with this country and
they’re waiting for an op-
portunity to change it.
“People are starving.
People don’t have any edu-
cation. People don’t have
basic medical facilities.
This has to change.’ There
was more than a trace of
anger in Steve’s voice.

some good reasons for it.

But he insists students
aren’t apathetic — not real-

Bernard K. Johnpoll, po-
litical professor at State Uni-
versity in Albany (SUNYA)
and long-time critic of the
* university system, says the
college is spending too much
money on administration and
not enough on instruction.
Johinpoll says he is so up-
set about the’ whole situation,
which he has complained
about before, that he may
even, run for the State As-
sembly to bring the issue be-
fore.the people.
“What we've really done
here at (SUNYA) in the‘past.
six or seven years is to have
weally grown geometrizally
as an administrative unit,”
‘the outspoken SUNYA profés+
sor said,
“At a time when classes
are growing larger and peo-
ple. are talking about in-
creasing the teaching hours
of professors, wouldn’t it be
easier to cut down the num-
ber of administrators and
get more teachers in order
fo keep the standard of
teaching where it has been.””
Johnpoll - produced figures
from a list of salaries for
SUNYA teaching and ~ad-
ministrative employes com-
piled by the campus’ histi-
tutional Research Depart-
ment which showed tat
$13.8 million was spent'for
the instructional staff ‘and
$4.9 million for administra-
tive costs. 5
The compilation of 197344
salary figures included a no-
tation that “persons holding
both an academic and--ad-
ministrative title are . in-
cluded in the faculty listing
when paid on a faculty
ling,”
The professor, Hoan fot
his'attacks on administrative
costs in the university sys-
tem, noted that..16 admini.
strators were drawing sala-
ties of more than $30,000 a
year, ‘or one-third of the ‘ad-
ministrative staff, while
only 22 of the more than
800 teacher's at the campus
fell in this salary bracket.
“The whole theing is topsy
turvey,” hé said.” If _ this
is an educational institution,
then ‘we should pay more‘for
educators than administra-
tors.” “

That Empire State Plaza--the new name
for the South Mall in Albany--will have a
very, substantial collection of art is widely
known, The art already there is attracting
attention. Typically, a few weeks ago Alba-
ny Leagye of Arts members toured three of
the Plaz: ouildings to see the paintings and
sculpture already on display.
Less widely known is that the Plaza will
provide facilities for the performing arts as
well. That building shaped like half a gra-
pefruit, now under construction, which will
rise from the Plaza platform on a pedes-
tal, will house a fully equipped theater
seating some 900 persons. Anather audito-
rium facing the same stage will seat some
500 persons.
A survey’ is now being taken throughout
Metroland to determine how the facility will
fit into the scheme of things. The survey,
covers both available facilities for perform-
ing arts events and organizations that
might wish to make use of the. facility when
“it is completed.
What an attractive place that could be to
go to for dance, musie, theater and the like,
The setting will be right. The mood would
be right.
The facility could prove a boon to cultural
life hereabouts.

will be the appearance of Beverly Sills in

The Albany symphony Orchestra grows

in Cohoes the old opera house is being res-

SUNYA professor forces U.S. to release study
By VICKI ZELDIN
Irving Klempner, professor
of library and information
sciences at State University
in Albany, fought a 16-month
battle with the federal gov-
ernment to obtain an unclas-
sified document. He won—
and is already involved in a
new battle for another docu-
ment.
The whole process began
back in March 1972, when
President Richard Nixon is-
sued an executive order lim-
iting the number of docu- *
ments that could be labeled
as classified. J
In his announcement, Nix-
on referred to a study done
by the National Security
Council (NSC) which called:
for detailed steps and proce-
dures for the declassification
of government documents
that should not bear’ the ‘se-
cret” stamp.
Klempner, who has done
extensive research in the
area’of government classifi-
cation policies, wrote to the
White House and requested
the NSC study.
That’s when his troubles
began. Despite published
statements by then-domestic
policy assistant John Ehrlich-
man, that the NSC study was
an unclassified document,
Klempner was repeatedly
frustrated in his attempts to
get the study:
The SUNYA professor dis-; *
plays a folder full of corr
spondences from the While
House on the subject. One
. letter said there was no such
study. Another letter said the
study was an ‘intra-depart-
mental memorandum and
was not subject to disclosure
under the federal Freedom of
Information Act.
Kiempner took his problem
, ta the American Civil Liber-
ties Union (ACLU). The
ACLU \put the White House
on notice that it would take
the issue to court under the
Freedom of Information Act

Historic Space Trip
By THOMAS O’TOOLE
‘The Washington Post
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. — A silver and gold pio-
neer spacecraft swept by the planet Jupiter Monday night,
surviving a four-hour flight through a radiation zone thou- —
sands of times stronger than the Earth’s Van Allen Belt.
“We have reached periapisis (clesest approach to the
planet) and are on our way out,” Pioneer project scient-
ist John Wolfe said just before 10:30 p.m. (EST) Monday.
The instruments aboard Pioneer appear to be functioning
normally.”
Drawn in by a gravitational pull 12 times that of the
Earth, Pioneer 10 sped by the giant planet at 9:24 p.m.
(EST), making space history. by moving at the amazing
speed of 96,400 miles an hour, by far the fastest speed
‘ever achieved by a man- made’ object.
| The 11 instruments and cameras aboard the 570-pound
spacecraft sent back readings and pictures to.Earth from
a distance of 513 million miles, signals that came in loud
and clear even though they took 46 minutes to reach the
Earth. 2
‘The Pioneer team assembled here at. Ames Research
Center was jubilant, not only because it had built the
first spacecraft to fly to Jupiter but also because that
spacecraft survived a searing ride through radiation belts
bigger and stronger than anybody had suspected.
The spacecraft passed as close as 81,000 miles from the
surface of the planet, crossing a sea of radiation filled
with as many as 100,000 penetrating protons every square
inch of the way.
The number of electrons and protons in the vast radia-
tion fields around Jupiter literally increased 100,000 times
in the four hours that Pioneer took before crossing the
equator of Jupiter at 9:34 p.m.
Wolfe described the last two hours of flight as a “cliff

hanger all the way,” but a little more than 100,000 miles
out from the planet the radiation levels peaked and then
began to fall off.
_ The only mishap the spacecraft suffered was the loss of
one picture of Jupiter and a close-up photograph of 10,
one of the 12 moons that circles Jupiter and the closest of
~ four large Galilean moons to the planet surface.
By midnight, the tiny spacecraft was on its way behind
Jupiter and héading out of the solar system, the first
man-made object to do so. Its destination was the distant
constellation Taurus, which Pioneer 10 will reach in eight
million years.
One of the instrument packages aboard Pioneer 10 was
developed by: the Space Astronomy Laboratory, a newly
affiliated research arm of the Department of Astronomy
and Space Sciences at the State University of New York
at Albany. The device will help scientists determine how
the solar system was formed.
