Rocky’s Budget May Be
—potskowski
Cut
Up to $700 Million
Welfare and Education Hurt
Republicans controlling the legislature’s fixcal
committees were reported Sunday to have reached
tentative agreement on economy cuts ranging be-
tween $600 million and $700 million in Gov.
Rockefeller’s proposed budget.
The accord represents a blending of approaches
developed independently by the Senate Finance
Committee and Assembly Ways and Means Commit-
tee. They merged their findings in a series of
conferences that extended into the weekend,
Their recommendations now will be presented to
closed meetings of the Republican majority blocs of
the Senate and Assembly, with a view toward
obtaining a final agreement by the end of this week.
Since their main object is to cut back the tax
increases that Gov. Rockefeller is seeking, the
legislators also must make decisions on which levies
can and should be deleted or revised downward.
It was reported reliably last week that Rockefeller,
Senate Majority Leader Earl W. Brydges and Assem-
bly Speaker Perry B, Duryea had agreed to abandon
the proposed ineréase in motor-vehicle registration
charges.
Rockefeller also is willing to back off on his state
income tax-plan—he had recommended a 10 percent
surcharge, plus higher brackets for upper-income
tax-payers and elimination of the $12.50 cash
credits that all tax-payers are accorded. Other
budget-cutters, however, would prefer to delete the
one-cent increase in the sales tax.
The immediate goal of the GOP legislative leader-
ship is to finish the budget-trimming exercise this
week, so that their amended version of the volumin-
ous $8.45-billion spending plan can be reprinted
over next weekend. That would make it ready for
passage by the April 1 start of the state’s new fiscal
year.
Both Brydges and Duryea scheduled Monday
conferences of their majority members to begin the
process of hammering out a final agreement.
The sources said the tentativeplan| isto cut $200
million from budget requests for operation of the
state government itself, to slice slightly over $300
million from state-aid spending—mostly from educa-
tion and welfare programs—and about $100 million
from funds earmarked for state construction projects.
Council Debates
Tax Referendums
by Eric Joss
A Council-wide questioning of Mike Glass, Chairman of University
Concert Board, reflected one of the major areas of concern as Central
Council members met last Thursday. The Concert Board’s financial
position and its method of talent selection were questioned. Glass,
anticipating the barrage of queries, came well armed with printed
financial reports, and managed to satisfy the inquiring Council
members. Included in his presentation were an explanation of the
short-term nature of negotiation time with performers, the limitations
caused by the 3,000 person capacity gym, and the problems incurred
with suggested joint concert efforts with other schools.
The second major piece of business was the motion proposed by
Steve Villano, RA in Melville-Steinmetz. Villano’s motion dealt with
the current washing machine controversy in which residents of
Melville-Steinmetz have been accused of tampering with their ma-
chines, and have consequently been denied) proper laundry service by
the machine owners. Villano, as representative of an adamant State
Quad group, was seeking a Council decision which would strongly
recommend that FSA, as a private corporation, take action against B
& M Distributors, the company from whom University machines are
leased. After a thorough account of the actual events which led to
this situation was described, Dick Wesley made a proposal which in
short provided for immediate FSA action against B & M. This motion
further stipulated that Mr. Robert Cooley of FSA respond by March
22, 1971. Following discussion, the motion was overwhelmingly
passed.
Treatment of Old Business was commenced with arequest by Ken
Stokem for a $500 appropriation to Community Program Commis-
sion. The purpose of these funds was to bring speakers Dave Dellinger,
Abbey Hoffman, Jerry Rubin, and Rennie Davis to Albany. The
motion was hesitantly passed.
Next discussed was the question of holding a referendum on student
tax policy at specified yearly intervals. Dave Neufeld volunteered a
report by the Chancellor stating tht a referendum this year was a
must. The major point of contention seemed to be how often the
referendum should take place in the future. Arguments centered
about the question of true student voice versus budgetary process
stability and expedience. Further discussion on the bill was deferred
to the April 1 meeting pending the Chancellor’s final report.
At this point, Jeff Wasserman broached the question of considering
possible alternatives to the newly accepted Student Association
constitution. Discussion on this matter led to a motion by Mike
Lampert, Vice-President of Student Association, suggesting that this
problem be referred to a committee chaired by Wasserman. An
apparent chain of misunderstandings ensued which resulted in the
resignation of Jeff Wasserman.
The feeling that the entire scene was most. unfortunate appeared to
be consensual. This attitude was translated into a Lampert motion
whereby the Council would refuse to accept Wasserman’s resignation.
:This motion was easily passed, and discussion on the constitution
‘problem was postponed until next meeting at which more time will be
afforded to it.
Dave Peck then inserted a motion asking Council to support an
interdisciplinary major program. An amended version of the original
proposal was passed after short deliberation.
Tentative Approval Given
C.O. Status Swapped
For Non-Military Work
WASHINGTON (AP) — Conscientious objector status in return for
three years of non-military service was tentatively approved by the
House Armed Services Committee Friday.
But a parliamentary tangle blocked a move to triple President
Nixon’s promised pay raise for those in military service.
The committee, marking up a 1971 two-year draft extension bill,
also voted down draft deferments for divinity students and rejected
the President’s proposed $3,000 combat enlistment bonus.
Committee Chairman F, Edward Hebert, D-La., said the committee
should take final action on the bill Monday. And he predicted the
vote against jumping President Nixon’s $987 million pay boost
Proposal to $2.7 billion will be reversed.
Hebert said the conscientious objector provision would grant that
staus to any man willing to put in three years of non-military service
with no other qualifications such as the present law that the objection
must be to all wars.
Conscientious. objectors now are supposed to serve two years.
Hebert said the third year would be in lieu of the four-year reserve
pa of men who have served two years in the active military
forces.

The Spanish section of Schuyler will also be coeducational. A basic interest and knowledge in Espanol,

over to Colonial Quad, contrary to previous publicity, Paine Hall
will continue to be a female
residence facility. Both Paine and Livingston Tower applied to the Committee on Student Residences to
become coed. As more interaction is possible in low rises, Paine was the first selection. However, the
women residing there now, upon learning they had no priority to
The action now moves up to the top four floors (18-21) of Livingston
Tower, which will house men and women in alternate suites. Standard
priorities will prevail, but to give all students an equal chance of being
included, returning residents to the tower will not have priority in the
coed sections.
Looking over at State Quad, three hundred spaces, making up the
top fourteen floors of Eastman Tower will be available for coed
residence. Present occupants have no priority. Should they be unable
to gain entrance because of low priority into coed Eastman Tower,
they will be given a returning-to-building priority in the first available
female hall of their choice.
The remaining one hundred spaces in the tower are being held for
male and female transfers and freshmen. The floors will be staggered
in two-floor units of males and females.
Melville-Steinmetz will continue to be a coeducation experience
housing male and female participants in alternate suites. Priority here
is senior, sophomore, junior.
Meanwhile, on the muddy terrain of Indian Quad, Oneida and
Onondaga Halls will house a special program entitled “Four Plus
Two.” In concept, each resident in these halls will share with staff and
fellow ‘residents some part of the responsibility for the functioning of
this community experience. Preferences will be given first to
sophomores, then juniors, then seniors for this coed arrangement of
alternating floors.
Adirondack and Tuscarora Halls have been selected to house
students interested in studies related to the environment. Incidentally,
Mohawk Tower will not be ready for September occupancy, but the
dining hall is expected to be completed.
Not to overlook Alumni Quad, Waterbury, Alden and Sayles Halls
all will remain coed by floors.
The following involve some audience participation. Act I is to obtain
an application for on-campus housing, available in all residence halls.
Students currently living off-campus, who wish to apply, may pick up
an application in the Housing Office.
Act II consists of completing the application and returning it plus a
$25 deposit to the State Quad Flagroom on the days April 12 through
16. Students planning to live together in a room or suite must turn in
their completed contract cards together. No application will be
accepted unless all students in the group are present to have their
Food Service picture taken.
Following a short intermission, students will be notified of hall
assignments during the week of April 26-30. A general informational
meeting will be held in each residence hall between May 3-7 to select
rooms.
There are 3,114 choice locations available\ for continuing under-
graduate | students. Continuing graduate studetns will have 270
available’ spaces. Presently, it does not appear that increased occu-
paney will be necessary. y

Seale and Huggins
Panther Trial Opens
by Peter Cowen
Associated Press Writer
The prosecution called a surprise witness to start
its case against Black Panther national Chairman
Bobby G. Seale and Ericka Huggins today.
State’s Attorney Arnold Markle called Margaret
Hudgins, a one-time defendant in the Panther
slaying case who testified for the defense in an earlier
trial.
Catherine Roraback, attorney for Mrs. Huggins,
called the action “a grandstand play by Mr. Markle
to start this trial off with a lot of headlines.” She
said Mrs. Hudgins came to the courthouse as a
spectator and was subpoenaed a half hour before
the start of the trial.
Seale and Mrs. Huggins face capital charges in
connection with the May 1969 slaying of Alex
Rackley, another Panther. Mrs. Hudgins faced simi-
lar charges in the Rackley slaying, but she later was
allowed to plead guilty to the lesser charge of
aggravated assault. Her sentence was limited to time
already served,
She was a defense witness in the only other trial
which has been held in the Rackley slaying, that of
Lonnie Lucas.
When Mrs. Hudgins took the witness stand,
Judge Harold M. Mulvey asked her if she would
answer questions. She replied that she would plead
the Fifth Amendment. Markle then offered her
immunity from further prosecution, but the judge
did not act immediately on the proposal.
Mulvey granted a recess until afternoon to allow
Mrs. Hudgins to consult with an attorney.
Seale and Mrs. Huggins are charged-with kid-
naping resulting in death and aiding and abetting
muder—offenses that carry the death penalty—plus
conspiracy to kidnap and to murder. Mrs. Huggins
also is charged with binding with criminal intent.

GRAND JURIES PROBE MALL
A four-month-old Albany Grand Jury -ended its term this week
without handing in any official report about the South Mall. There
were widespread reports the panel was investigating alleged loan-
sharking, price padding, missing materials and other infractions.
Two other panels are also investigating the Mall. Grand juries in
Auburn and Utica are presently probing the Mall and may be using
information passed on from the Albany panel.
ALBANY AIRPORT EXPANDING
Over the objections of local Colonie county legislators, the Albany
County Legislature approved a 1500 foot extension of the east-west
runway Friday. This measure was coupled with a request for $6.2
million in federal aid. The county’s share would be $780,000. The.
measure passed 26-8.
The main grounds of the objections was that this could be part of a
plan to turn Albany Airport into a jet port and still further expansion
could result, bringing in larger, noisier aircraft more frequently.
MOHAWK STRIKE ENDS
The 128-day-old strike of Utica-based Mohawk Airline has been
settled! The Airline Pilot's Association (ALPA) and the carrier agreed
that issues still unsettled on March 25 would be submitted to binding
arbitration.
The first flights are expected on April 14 and full service will
resume by mid-May. But about 14 per cent of the pre-strike flights are
permanently cancelled by the airline.
The company recently announced that it had again gone into the
red last year. The amount of the deficit, about $11 million, was twice
the previous year’s loss. Much of the increased loss was blamed on the
crippling strike, which began in mid-November.
CAN RECYCLING CENTERS OPEN
Two tin and steel can recycling centers have opened in the Albany
area. Located at 10 Erie Boulevard in Albany and 6 Simmons Lane in
Menands, the centers are part of a national effort by four can
manufacturers to help the environment.
The Albany depository will be open round-the-clock; the Menands
plant ,8 to 5 every day. All size cans are accepted. Before depositing
the cans, they must be carefully washed to avoid attracting rodents,
and compacted. The easiest method of compacting is by simply
stepping on them.
The centers are run for ecological reasons only, and do not make a
Profit. Scrap cans are worth $10 a ton (about 25-30 thousand cans).
The can companies involved are Continental Can. Co., National Can
Co., American Can Co., and the Heekin Can Co. The recycling project
is three months old nationally.
SCHOOL BOARD ELECTION
Mayor Corning filed suit with the State Supreme court this week
against the Albany County Board of Elections to change the date of
the elected school board from this November to May, 1972.The
Propostion for the elected school board was passed by a 2 to 1 margin
last November.
Among the reasons Mayor Corning gave was that the small number
of signatures needed on the nominating ‘petition. might result in an
exceedingly large number of nominations, causing a bottleneck at the
general electionHe also said the declining population of the city (the
1970 census shows it dipped below the 125,000 level of a major city)
changed the laws affecting the city and it was now mandatory for an
elected school board and the provisions of the recently enacted laws
didn’t apply.
Republican State Senator Langley has introduced legislation to
Keep Albany in the category of a major city (over 125,000) despite
census figures, until June 30, 1972. If his legislation passes, the school
board election will be held this November as originally proposed,
unless Corning’s suit wins.
Mayor Corning, a Democrat, originally vigorously opposed the
Republican- sponsored elected school board. He held the power of
appointment of the present three-man board. If Corning’s suit
Succeeds and Langley’s extension fails, the election will be held in
May, 1973,

Rocky’s Car Insurance Bill
Could Cut Rates 33-56%
Action is being taken on the
state level to initiate no-fault
automobile insurance programs.
This new type of insurance cover-
age has the twin advantages of
reducing annual premiums and
providing faster and more equi-
table payments.
Four main plans are before the
consideration of the legislature.
The Stewart plan pushed by
Governor Rockefeller is the most
open-ended plan. Under its pro-
visions the victims in an auto
accident would be compensated
by the auto owner’s own insur-
ance company and the fault as-
pect of the accident would be
irrelevant, except when one of the
drivers involved is under the influ-
ence of alcohol, drugs or other
anti-social factors.
Robert J. Bertrand, Deputy
State Insurance Superintendent,
estimates that under an enacted
Stewart Plan, the average owner's
insurance cost would decrease
33% with respect to the compul-
sory coverages and a 56% cost
decline for the typical insurance
package that includes non-man-
dated coverage.
The basic premise of how no-
fault insurance works is that each
individual would be paid for all
their net economic losses, inclu-
ding medical and rehabilitative ex-
penses, lost income and other
related expenses, out of their dri-
ver’s or car owner’s insurance
company, except for unusual cir-
cumstances.
Benefits which would result
from implementation of the plan
are:
It would compensate the vic-
tim 100% for his losses immed-
iately. Under the present system,
the seriously injured are compen-
sated for less than 25% of their
full economic losses. This happens
because cases drag on and on
(average victim waits 15 months
for payments) and many, in des-
peration, settle for less than they
are entitled to, out of court, Fully
45% of the seriously injured must
THE S.A. LAWYER
no appointment
insurance
now lower their standard of living
while settlement cases drag on.
The delay, uncertainty and ex-
pense of proving fault would be
eliminated. Now, unless a victim
can prove the complete fault of
the other driver involved, he
stands to lose. If the driver mainly
at fault can prove some small
degree of fault on the part of the
other driver, the settlement can be
frustrated.
The civil courts would be freed
of roughly half the case burden
that now clogs them. The delays
in our present court system are
now viewed as a national shame
and scandal.
The design of safer cars would
be encouraged since those driving
unsafe cars could face higher in-
surance costs.
It would permit the consumer
to cover his special insurance
needs beyond the net economic
loss coverage.
Primary opposition to the
Rockefeller-backed Stewart plan
comes from lawyers and insurance
men.
Statisties of 1968 show in lia-
bility cases in New York State,
lawyers received one billion dol-
lars, The attorneys for those peo-
ple suing—the plaintiffs—collected
eight hundred million dollars in
fees. This equals about 35% of the
actual amount awarded to the
accident victims.
At present about 56 cents of
every insurance dollar goes for
overhead and only 44 cents of
each dollar paid ever reaches ac-
cident victims for all losses.
The New York State Bar Asso-
ciation opposes the Stewart Bill.
It supports no-fault insurance in
general with the stipulation that
accident victims still have the op-
portunity to seek relief in court.
The bar-supported plan is
sponsored by Senator Hughes and
Assemblyman Crawford. Under
Provisions of this plan, victims
could receive up to $2,000 in
direct payments from their own
insurance company, exclusive of
to discuss any
legal questions,
problem
law
schools,
Ree ts
medical bills. The right to court
procedure to determine fault will
still remain. The advantages of
immediate payment and right to
court trial for additional compen-
sation from future pain and suf-
fering, would both exist.
A third measure is sponsored
by Senator Gordon. The measure
is aimed at the claims of $400 or
less in actual medical expendi-
tures. About 75% of all auto-
mobile bodily injury claims
amount to less than this figure.
For amounts under $400, the
no-fault system would be used.
The insured would be reimbursed
under the present system for
amounts over $400. In addition,
the injured person could sue for
“pain and suffering” and be com-
pensated for up to $2,000.
Another measure is sponsored
by Assemblyman Lemer of
Queens and follows the other bills
in general in regard to no-fault
insurance. It retains a cause of
action for pain and suffering. The
bill also changes the types of
coverage different groups of peo-
ple need.

An interview with Joanne Tortorici, member of the
Woman’s Strike Committee on the march to the State
Capitol on March 27th.
Listener voted TOP 100 11 pm this Saturday Night.
Anywhere else in the nation, Lacrosse is played
outdoors, on green grass, in shorts and short-sleeved
jerseys. Except, this isn’t anywhere else, this is
‘Albany. Yesterday was the first day of spring and
the Varsity Lacrosse Team was still contending with
Mother Nature or Old Man Winter (they’re one and
the same around here), They practiced outside
which is amazing but they still had to wear bulky
sweat suits and spend time picking the mud off their
sticks.
The point is, it’s not a joking matter and Coach
Robert Ford isn’t laughing. Lacrosse is supposed to
be played outdoors. Thus, it needs to be practiced
outdoors. The team’s been out there for about 1%
weeks. They open their season April 1 against
Towson (Md.) State (rated 15 in the nation last
year). Towson has been practicing on the grass since
early February. That’s some headstart.
‘The'reason that practicing outdoors is so important
is that getting used to the way the hard rubber ball
bounces on the grass is an intricate part of the game.
The only way to get used to it (picking up ground
backs, handling bouncing shots) is by playing on it.
State Lacrosse fans—please should not become
discouraged!! All hope is not lost. The team is
getting there, and they have a lot with which to get.
That means that the picture on the whole looks
good. Here’s how it shapes up.
First, attack. It wouldn’t take a genius to know
we're strong here, Back for their fourth and last
years on the team are co-captains Larry Smith and
Steve Jakway. Smith was out for a good part of last
season with a broken rib, but seems to be the same
guy who led the team in scoring two years ago.
Jakway and newcomer Dick Garlock will comple-
ment Smith very well to make the attack very
formidable. Seniors Mike Gottfried and John Wilcox
will be the premier reserves here with the latter
swinging back and forth between attack and Mid-
field.
Ford is very happy with the Midfield situation.
This means depth.
Led by co-captain Kevin Sheehan, and Mark
Werder, Ford has been very impressed with the play
of Barry Sadoff, Bill Murphy, Tom Mullins, Jimmy
Miller, Jerry Solomon and Wilcox, who is possibly
the finest stickhandler of the bunch.
The defense could again be the weakest link of the
squad, but this is not to say it won’t be good. It
does look improved with the addition of Bill
Johnson, who joins holdovers Larry Thompson,
Kurt Smith and George Turow. Marshall Winkler, up
until this year a middle, will be on defense and will
probably set a great deal of action there. He may
also swing to Midfield if needed.
Finally, the goaltending seems to be the bright
spot of the team. Tom Heister, considered by many
to be the finest small college goalie around last year
will probably start. He is backed up by Bobby Cole,
a starter for two years. The team won’t lose much,
if anything, if Bobby is in the nets.
This Thursday, the Danes take on RPI in a
scrimmage. Come out and see how good these guys
are—that’s as long as it doesn’t snow, I mean!!
Synch Swimmers Place 4th
by Aralynn Abare
The Albany Synchronized Swim
Club placed fourth out of ten
schools in the Third Annual East-
ern Intercollegiate Synchronized
Swimming Conference Routine
Competition, held here Saturday.
Ranking first in the meet was
the University of Vermont, sec-
ond, SUC Brockport, and third,
Penn State. Other participating
schools were Skidmore, SUC Gen-
eseo, CUNY Hunter College, SUC
Buffalo, SUNY Stonybrook and
Brandeis University.
Albany entered four routines in
the competition, a beginner
group, two intermediate duets,
and an advanced solo. The begin-
ners took first place against four
other routines with “Alice
Through the Looking Glass.”
Members of the team were Peggy
Dalheim, Denny Goldberg, Judy
Johnson, Carol Mann (alternate),
Gloria Neward, Margaret Reiley,
Bev Schmidt, and Irene Skidmore.
The duets ranked sixth and
ninth of the 13 routines entered
in this category. Sixth place
Sandy Graff and Meg Hahne swam
in ‘Farewell at the Grey Havens,”
and Jackie Levy and Debbie
Swalm placed ninth in “Elves
Moonlight Potion.”
Freshman Maureen Melling, in
“Bazaar,” placed third in ad-
vanced solo competition against
11 other: swimmers.
This is the second year the
Albany Club has participated in
the stunt competition. At last
year’s meet, also held here, the
SUNYA team ranked sixth out of
11 schools, with a first place
beginner team, plus third and
fourth place intermediate duets.
Albany coach Pat Rogers com-
pared the two years of competi-
tion, noting that “the level of skill.
ability was much better overall
than last year, especially in the
advanced solo category. Also, the
men who participated added a
new dimension to the competi-
tion; it was no longer just a girl’s
sport.”
Next year, the team will com-
pete again in both stunt and rou-
tine competition, at Brandeis and
Stonybrook respectively. In addi-
tion, they plan to put on a water
show.
