Danes gear for Union after blanking Brockport

Undefeated Albany ranks third in nationwide
Division II! poll with two early season wins

By Mare Haspel
SPORTS EDITOR

There's something extra about a local rivalry. On the
schedule the game fits in like any other, but on the playing
field there's something more, The players feel it und the
fans vith sense it; there fs usually electricity in the air, These
are the makings of @ fine rivalry

Tomorrow the Capital District will be treated to its
newest collegiate rivalry, and it will be battled right here on
University Field, Possessing a third place Division III na:
tional ranking, the undefeated Aibany State Great Danes,
coming off a resounding victory aver the Brockport Eagles
30.0, luke on the also undeleated Union College Dut
chien, Both teams have identical 2-0 records,

“Ht has become a big rivalry beeause we're making it a
big rivalry," sald Dane head couch Bob Ford, "*f would say
that last year they (Union) had an average Division 1] Foor
ball (eam and we had @ good Division U1 football team, but
We let them beat us, They deserved to win,”

Last year, the Albany-Union contest way the first
meeting between the two teams in several decades. It was
supposed to haye been a one-sided affair. The Danes were
3.0 at the time and, coincidentally, had a third place rank
ing in the Division 111 national polls. Further, the Dut
chmen didn't seem 10 have the talent needed to stop the
high-flying Danes, When the game way over, however,
there was celebration in Schenectady (Union territory) and
despair in Albany. Union defeated the Danes 10-7.

This season (ings are a little bit different, Particulaely
the Dutchmen. A vastly improved team this season Over
last, Union, under the direction of new head vouch Al
Hagnoli, has jumped out (0 their best start in twelve years:

They are for real this year," sald Ford, The Duichmen
demolished Hobart 49-14 last week after defeating
Rochester 28-7 In thelr season opener, “They have an ex:
gellent Division It football team.”

Union runs a high powered offense mixing up several
formations in order to confuse opposing defenses. *They
make the best use of their personnel through thelr forma:
tions (mostly the I and T),!" said Dane assistant coach
Kevin Guyette, ‘They are deceiving.

This deceptive offense {s led by quarterback Dan
Stewart. A good passer, the $-10, 170-pound Stewart can
sprint out of the pocket or drop back and hit his receivers
on long patterns for big gains, In Union's two victories
Stewart has compiled 307 passing yards and four

touchdowns,
Stewart likes to throw to his S-ll, 175-pound burner Walt
Frederick, ‘He runs discipline routes,"* sald Guyette of the
senior, who has caught five passes for 95 yards this season,
Stewart's other favorite receivers are Kevin Gibbons,
Frank Kraft a Hi Kellaher, all who stand over 6-0,
cllaher leads the team in receiving with six catches for 125

Steve Bodner, 6-3, 220 pounds, the Dutchmen employ the
“shit and hunt principle," according to Guyette. ‘They
each have a man assigned to hit, then they read his action
and move to the ball,”” he explained

The defense is supported by a strong secondary. ‘The
entire secondary is very tough and talented,"’ said Guyette.
Dominating that region of the field is free safety George
Oberstadt and Tim Wade, a 6-1, 195-pound monster at the
strong safety position.

*\We can expect a very physical game because they're a
physical team defensively," Guyette added. We're not go-
ing to make any changes in our offense. There's no reason
for us to change now, We've been successful, but the

Booters drop two games but still remain intact

By Mare Schwarz

SAPP WRITER.

The Albany Stale men's soccer team has survived the
toughest part of their schedule, A bit loose at the seams,
but still intact,

The Danes dropped two games last week, 4-0 (0 Cortland:
and 5-0 to Hartwick, following their hard fought victory
over Plattsburgh last week, putting their record at 2-2-1,

The Danes were expected to lose on Wednesday at home
to former Division 1 national champions Hartwick. The
Warriors, coming off tough losses to Clemson and St,
Francis, took out their frustrations on the Albany squad in
@ rough match.

Hartwick moved out (0 an early 3-0 lead on goals by Dan
D'Angelo at 9:14. The Warrior's leading scorer Eddie
Hawkins netted a disputed goal at 15:19 and Mike Lopoyda
closed out the first half scoring at the 20:14 mark.
Hawkins! goal was scored on a play that appeared to be
off-sides. Albany coach Bill Schieffelin and Dane players
Vehemently protested the counting of the goal.

Hartwick controlled the tempo of the entire game, out
shooting Albany 17-1. The Danes seemed in awe of their

jonally known rivals at times, giving the ball away to
create numerous scoring opportunities for the Warriors.

D'Angelo scored his second goal of the game 24 minutes
into the second half and Pat Cruickshank closed out the
scoring nine minutes later heading the ball past goalie Mike

Scott Smith by punching Smith in the face, Morales was
ejected from the game. Smith only received a yellow card.
Later in the half, Warrior Lopoyda was also given a red
card,

Despite the lopsided score, Schieffelin felt there were
some bright spots on his team’s performance. ‘We got a lot
of experience playing against Hartwick. You learn a lot
playing against a good team," said Schieffelin, “Now we
can look ahead to the rest of the season. Hopefully we can
go undefeated and we will be in good shape, It will be dif-
ficult, but I'm happy with the way my boys are playing."”

However, Schieffelin was not happy with his team’s per-
formance last Saturday against Cortland. Again the Danes
could muster no offense, as they were outshot 16-3 and
outscored 4-0,

"If we play the best we can, I’m satisfied, win, lose, or
draw. I was disappointed because we did not play our best.
That is what is disturbing,” said Schieffelin.

Schieffelin felt that the Plattsburgh game had taken a lot
‘ut of his team, physically and mentally. “*We had four or
five guys who shouldn't have played because of injuries or
sickness, Cortland just physically outran us,"? he said.

The Danes, who were ranked 10th in the state in the
latest poll, hope to strengthen their midfield in order to
bolster their sluggish offensive play, Albany will play their
next two games on the road, Brockport on Saturday and
Union on Wednesday.

Women rally Capitol to ‘Take Back The Night’

By Carl Patka

Armed with flashlights and a cause, ap-
proximately 400 women rallied In front of
the Capitol steps last Friday night to, accor-
ding to a rally program guide, give". . . an
‘opportunity for women to unite in their ef-
forts to heighten awareness around the
issue of rape.

Despite the threat of rain, the ralliers,

some of whom were men, started gathering ~

At 6 p.m, to “take back the night’ — a time
the ralliers felt women to be particularly
vulnerable to violent sexual crime. In the
words of march organizer and speaker Deb-
bie Schramek, who is also a counselor at the
Albany County Rape Crisis Center, ‘It is
night, and there is violence,"*

Toting signs and chanting ‘Women
unite! Take back the nightt’? the ralliers left
the Capitol at 7:30 p.m. and marched west
Up State Street, through Washington Park
and back down to the Capitol, Kathy
Kargoll said she was marching because
“I'm pissed off 1 can't walk safely at night,
I'm tired of being harassed!"? Roberta
Goldberg, more calmly explained, “I feel
that it’s time for women to take back what
society has taken away, The ability 10 walk
safely at night and during the day and
freedom from blame from families and
friends for sexual crimes."

Citizen's Party candidate for Congress,
Mark Dunlea, attended the rally and said,
"I think women should have the right to
walk alone in the Capitol District. If men’
Were getting attacked, the problem would
haye been solved long ago."”

During a separate protest led by the
Feminist Allianee, approximately, 30
students who rallied on SUNYA’s uptown
campus were egged, mooned, and verbally

ed by other students,

The uptown rally was the culmination of
the Women's Safety Awareness Seminar, a
program sponsored by SUNYA and Na
tional Rape Prevention Week

Sometimes emotional, speeches, songs,
skits were delivered by members

Albany Rape Crisis Center, the Gray
Panthers, the Disabled Women's Theatre
Group, TACTIC, and the Citizens Party

“Because we had over 1,000 persons

aid strong networking and tobbying in the
legislature contributed 0 the bill's passage,

Condo added that rape laws concerning
the degree of rape are purely statutory, the
degree of the felony of rape or sodomy be-
ing determined largely by the age difference
between the victim and the assailant, In the
eyes Of the law, rape occurs when a sexual
act Is performed without the consent of
both parties involved, and that the law
determines who is and isn't capable of gly
ing statutory consent, Condo states that
this Is inadequate due to the fact that a 25
year old |y just as easily raped by force as a
17 year old, She sald that more emphasis
should! be plaved on the severity of the sex-
ual erime, rather than the ages of the victim
and assailant,

Condo explained that the laws dealing
with rape between a husband and wife are
also inadequate, Under the present law, a
Husband may forcibly have intercourse with
his wife without his wife's consent and not
be prosecuted for rape, Also, in cases of
separation, even if the husband and wife
are living apart, the husband may stil force
intervourse and not be prosecuted unless a
specific st
jon agreement prohibit
prosecution shall ensue, Condo said that
Togislation to change these laws is pending:

Very easy £0 get away with, sald Condo, and
added that the ease of the crime results
from the fact that only 1 in 10 rapes are

Wattenmaker reports from Nicaraguan tour

By Ken Olsen

Candidate for the U.S, Senate on the Socialist Workers
ticket, Steve Waltenmaker, held a slide show and discus-
sion last night on “the continuing U.S. attempts (0
destabilize the Sandinistan government in Nicaragua.” ~

Addressing a sparse but interested audience, Watten-
maker related the details of a fact finding mission he under-
took this past summer.

Sponsored by the socialist newspapers, The Militant and
Perspectivo Mundial, Wattenmaker and approximately 30
other trade unionists from across the United States found
that the American media coverage of Nicaragua and its
problems was at best incomplete, and in most cases grossly
inaccurate,

Prior (o their wo week fact-finding tour, the group had
read reports on a Nicaraguan people that were ‘‘disillusion~
ed with the revolutionary government, Businessmen wanted
a return to the good old days," said Wattenmaker. Native
Indian tribes, such as the Miskitus, were supposedly being
“repressed and forcibly transported to refugee camps."”
Cuban influence was allegedly dangerously high,

Wattenmaker proclaimed that "the opposite was occurr-
ing’ in all these cases, The population (especially the poor)
was “overwhelmingly supportive of the revolutionary

ent.!’ An optimistic look to the future was far

mon than any reactionary sentiment, and what
limited Cuban influence was found in the country was be
ing directed to constructive projects. The conception of
repressed Indians is also unfounded, Wattenmaker said

Relocation of tribes has occurred, but it has been a
necessity due to the fact that the Indian villages were
Undergoing “almost nightly raids!” in which Honduran
soldiers, accompanied by former Somozan National
Guardsmen, terrorized the native Indians,

Wattenmaker pointed out that ‘*The U.S, government is

Sool
Nicaraguans support revolutionary government,
now allocating $19 million to destabilize the novernment of
Nicarngua.’? He cited a CIA-backed, July 19, 1982 Hon-
duran attempt to bomb Nicaragua's only oil depot, an act
that would Have killed thousands of innocent civilians if it
had been sucessful
The government that the Reagan administration seems
nt on toppling has made great advances, and Watten

maker notes that the destabilization efforts are not deterr-
ing the people of Nicaragua, Peasants have told him that
“life has changed.”

“A cooperative effort is being made to develop the coun-
try based on the needs of the poor,’ Wattenmaker
asserted, Government stores have been set up to insure that
no one goes hungry." Gone are the misery, fear, and
hopelessness'’ that prevailed under Anastasia Somoza's
regime,

The cooperative effort seems to be working, Watten-
maker related details of improvements in education,
medicine, housing, and culture. The Sandinista revolu-
tionary government seized power in 1979, and many great
strives forward have been made since them.

‘A iteracy campaign, in. which 60,000 Nicaraguans
volunteered to help teach 1,5 million to read and write, has
racy rate from $0.2 percent in 1979 to 12,1

lowered the i

have drastically reduced malaria and other diseases,
Nicaragua's first major hospital has just recently ben com:
pleted, Attempts are being made to preserve the culture and
Janguage of the native Indian tribes, and cultural events as

Man denied suit against day care center

“By Debbie Judge

STATE WRITER

Last spring, John Koethen of Winthrop
St,, Albany, was refused his claim against
Pierce Hall Day Care Center in Albany City
Court due to an apparent technicality.
Koethen, maintains it was
discrimination,

The small-claims suit involved Koethen’s
five and a half year-old daughter, Nora,
who was enrolled at Pierce Hall, Because
he does not have legal custody, center per-
sonnel would not allow Koethen to pick up
his daughter on Friday afternoons when,
Koethen said, he had been granted visita:

the cost of its services - $95.75,

“He was in the wrong court," Peter
Loomis, Pierce Hall Day Care Center's at-
torney, said, pointing out that the issue was
one of custody which should properly be
settled in family court, Loomis said he had
suggested this to Judge John Turner during
his and Koethen’s ‘two minutes" in court
The judge agreed, refusing to hear the case.
‘In my mind,’ Loomis said,

later that he did not take the case to family
court because he saw his case as one of con-

Kocthen, who is also involved in the
Equal Rights for Fathers" movement,
points to his difficulty as discrimination
against non-custodial parents, Several
other divorcees - women as well as men -
have had similar problems, he’ said.
Koethen, however, decided to go public in
pursuing his case against what he termed
“the edge of the wedge" of discrimination,
He posted open letters in the area, and sent
his protest to several newspapers, including
The Times Union, Knickerbocker News,
‘The New York Times, and the ASP, He

also directed copies to The New York State
Commission on Judicial Conduct, the
Committee on Professional Standards, the

Lucrative video games booming on campus

National phenomenon

Lexington, KY
(CPS) College officials have found video
games extremely lucrative, In an average
campus arcade, each game ci
$200-$300 a week, according to various
estimates,

‘At the University of Arizona, students
plunked in over one million quarters —
some $280,00 — at the 35-game arcade in
the University Center. The school's profit
‘was $150,000,

Texas Tech, which converted a meeting
room into an arcade two years ago, now has
75 games that bring in $300,000 a year

The Universities of Illinois, Washington,
Cincinnati and Tennessee, to name a few,
also report fiscal success with the machines.

‘Some psychologists have even warned the
games can foster anti-social behavior —
from increased violence to alienation and
withdrawal — among children who play
them excessively. One expert claims the col~
orful and pulsating lights on game boards
can pitch players into scizures, comas and
cardiac arrest

Brownsville, Texas officials recently
complained teenagers are sniffing painted
quarters to get high at local video game ar-
cades.

But so far, none of the dozens of colleges
that have installed the games has reported
such side effects, In fact, some college
union officials claim the games are good
outlets for student stress.

There's also some evidence the games are
actually good for players.

A California physician, for one, says the
‘games keep kids active and alert, as oppos-
ed to watching television, a passive activity.
Optometrist John Rogers prescribes video
games to children with coordination pro-
blems, claiming the games can improve
hand-eye coordination.

The games don't lead to stealing, truancy
or drinking, either, says B, David Brooks, a

that song's success with his later releases.

After briefly turning to soul, Cliff received a

portrayed a Cliff-like character that, instead

showcases Val's floating voice and some
quirky instrumentation

Hudson Rock works so well, though,
because of the bands that aren't so well
known. This isn't an elitist knock against
the few bands who are well known, it's just

Cliff Dives Into The Stream

found satisfaction in his travels to Africa:
While always maintaining his ideological
Integrity, he's begun to garner mass
popularity. He's even been featured in
People. If that's not popular what is?

As stated before, success isn't changing
Jimmy Clif’s style, especially in the Iyrics

department. While maintaining his critical
voice of many of society's Institutions, he
retains @ note of hope, and Indeed opens
and closes the record with two hopeful
songs, "Special" and “Where There Is
Love”, respectively, The latter has this
theme running through it; ‘Where there is

resentment expressed by Cliff. "Peace Of- iH

ficer", written by Cliff, exemplifies a feeling
of resentment towards the police, The song
resembles in more ways than one a song
performed by Rick James that voices his
feelings about wrongdoings of the law.
Jimmy Clif expresses his sense of wrong
not in a plaintive wall, a la Bob Dylan, but
‘rather in a warning of what could happen if
his messages aren't heeded, especially on
Treat the Youths Right":"Treat the youths
right/Instead of putting up a fight/Treat
the youths right/Or you'll be playing with
dynamite”. This tune also features a salsa:
tinged percussion section
A criticism that has offen been leveled at
reggae ts that much of the music is
repetitive While having some merits, this
criticism iso bit simpleminded, To a reggae

fan, this erticisin would seem absurd, dim:
my Cliff, on Special does his part to dispel
the notion that the only thing that seperates

ne song fr nother is the words. On

Driginator”, Clif uses a great deal of
African percusion and rhythm, a musical
siyle which he has great respect for, Clif
shows that he's opensminded as well, as
Witnessed by his utilization of Ron Wood
on two tracks, Wood's guitar definitely
enriches the album, Bertram Ranchi
Molean and Mickéy Boo Edwards, both
members of Cliffs backing band, Oneness,
each do an excellent job on bass and
drums, respectively:

With Special, it appears that Cliff, who's,
pald his dues with interest, may finally get
the mainstream recognition he deserves,
All this week, WCDB is featuring Special,
Check it out, It offers the reggae fanatic
more of Jimmy Cliff to love, while showing
those who haven't been exposed to It why

love ob life's a glow/The babies grow like

that the freshest rock on the Hudson comes:
from the Verge, the X-lstentials, Lumpen
Proles, Capitle, etc, Yeah, you've caught
their names on posters, but have you ever
seen them live? Probably not, or more ac:
curately, definitely not, Henceforth the
reason for this album.

Some stuff here Is too regressive: the
Hot Lobsters play weak ‘power sap and
don't belong here; the Rockin Dakotas, a
Jate great live band, sound watered down
and played out; and the Weekenders
“Powersurge” lacks just that; it rips of Bo
Diddley and adds nothing to It

On the other hand, there are at least five
or six songs here which lend hope to the
idea of an original Albany sound. The
Young Reptiles cover "Cast Iron Arm'"sand
Brad Whiting’s vocals and the hilarious
Jack Nicholson type breaks end the record
with an all important sense of humor. The
X:Istentials downbeat Is similar to that of
Siouxsie and the Sanshees and they have a
betier grasp of psychedelia than most of
those British poseurs do, The Crude happl-
ly remind me of Iggy and the Stooges, and
Capitle’s “fun” fs a 30 second hardcore
gem

At the top of my list are the Lumpen Pro
les and the Verge. | can't figure out whom.
the Lumpen Proles sound like, but that's a
tribute to them. “You Can't Forget" is hyp-
notizing and haunting, but not by the usual
sloom and doom way. Things are kept sim
ple and distant while maintaining a pop
charm, They draw a successful line bet:
ween tension and restraint instead of
smashing you over the head, The same ap-
plies to the Verge's "'1-2-3-4-5-6", pro
bably the best cut on Hudson Rock. Once
‘again, instead of overemphasizing the ob-
vious, the Verge (an appropriate name)
hover on the edge and give you a great
chorus to boot. The guitars are submerged
in the mix and provide the song with a

reggae Is a religion 1o some. (a)

quiet power, Very impressive.

Now all that remains is for anyone out-
side of Albany to hear this. The importance
‘of Hudson Rock Isa little scary; if Albany is
to ever become some kind of decent place
for rock and roll, it appears that this is the
medium through whieh to do it. Even more
important than outside help, though, is for
‘our little town to make some noise. Just
about all of these bands can be caught on
any weekend downtown (the Chateau or
Bogarts once in awhile) for only a couple of
bucks. If we don't care, who will?! (a)

Sasway ain’t a-marchin’

years in federal prison yesterday for refusing
to register for the draft,
Enton Eller faces a prison sentence for refusing to
ster for the draft within 90 days of his conviction
for resisting registration,

The return of draft prosecutions induce a feeling
of nostalgia, Some of the old songs don’t seem as
fated as they used to,

For I marched to the battles of the German tren
eh/In a war that was bound to end all war/1 must
have killed a million men/And now they want me
tack again/But 1 ain't a-marchin' anymore,

B en Sasway was sentenced to two-and-a-half

AXtier the end of Reagan's grave period in March,
the one+million plus draft resisters began waiting for
‘he first indictments, And they came, Eller and
Sayway’ were among the first,

And won't be the last, The Justice Department is
working on other cases, and will continue until
juistration ends, They certainly won't run out of
cases,

Bul as hard as the government tries, as many cases
they bring to court, as many lies they continue, they
won't be able to end the resistance movement,

The Reagan administration and the militarists
backing it have forgotten something very important
They've forgotten that the people they're trying to
ket to register grew up during Vietnam, Childhood
memories of body county on the evening news don't
yo away easily, Like his boot camp photograph,
memory of a brother killed in the war may fade, but
enough of the image remains to help us remember
what (le photo onge showed, We grew up with Mai

Lai and Kent State, We grew up with death.

For 1 flew the final mission in the Japanese
skies/Set aff he mighty mushroom roar/ When I saw
the cities burnin'/I knew that 1 was learnin'/That 1
ain't a-marchin' anymore.

For most resisters, the act of resistance comes
from moral objection to war, and this country's use
of it, The military dousn’t exist to protect some
¢lementary school notions of free world democracy
— it exists primarily to build corporate profits at
home and protect corporate profits abroad, To resist
registration Is to refuse (0 allow yoursell’ to become
part of this corporate/military system — which is

getting more and more difficult,
Call it peace or call it reason/Call it love or call it
treason/But 1 ain't a-marchin' anymore.

The dratt never really left, 1t just changed form a
little. Instead of the lottery draft, we now have the
economic draft. Those of us with means (0 find jobs,
or pay for college are exempt. More and more people
tire having their options reduced by the depression
Few jobs and less aid make the military look like a
good option — that’s one of the reasons why there's
so little aid and so few jobs.

The number of 18-yedtr-olds is decreasing, That’s a
demographic fact. The Pentagon estimates that one
out of three young men will have to be inducted to
maintain its present numbers in only a few years,
Present enlistments are far over quota — now. In a
few years, the only way to keep those numbers up
Will be {0 start calling up numbers.

That's where resistance comes in. It's one of the
most effective ways of letting the government know
that their priorities aren't yours, It’s an idea that
some men — like Sasway and Eller — are willing to
40 (0 jail for.

Now look at all we've won/With the sabre and the
gun/Tell me, isit worth it all? — Phil Ochs

Just before he was sentenced, Ben Sasway was
allowed to make @ statement, He said that draft
registration ‘deprives young men of one of the most
important moral decisions they can make — to (ake
another life.

Resistance to draft registration is making the deci
sion that you will not take another life,

Off-campus housing

To the Editor:

tuidenty mistakenly assume several things about the Oft
Campus Housing Office (OCHO), with often costly results.
Thad Co learn the hard way how little the office does to keep
bad Jandlords from ripping off students, and so I'd like to
Present a few hard facts to my fellow students, If Lean pre:
Vent Just one othier person from being ripped off, this fetter
Will have been worth it

The OCHO decided this summer that it would stop
screening bad landlords from advertising their housing!
Karlene Karlson, hiead of the OCHO and Neil Brown, Dean.
for Student Affairs, were Worried that upset landlords
would sue the University if they continued sereening for
bad landlords, Asa result, almost nothing a landlord does
can now prevent him from advertising 10 unknowing
students on the off-eampus housing board, Earlier this
month, for example, my landlord, one Michael Rickman,
broke a lease with me and my housemates by renting out
our house (9 someone else. We were all shocked when we
drove into Albany to find out that we had no place to stay;
nowhere to live, Yet, OCHO's new policy prevents them
from taking this landlord's name down, 1 was (old that
even if this man is convicted in court for acting illegally
towards me and my housemates, OCHO will sill refuse to
ban this guy's ads from their board!

In other words, the OCHO window hay become little
more than a free source of advertising for the landlords of
the Albany area, and a cheap way to hit the vulnerable stu:
dent market, Those students must, on their own, research.
the record of each landlord, The University has given up on
ils chance to try and protect students who ate looking for
good off-campus housing from good landlords, Fortunate
ly for students, the OF) Campus Association, a branch of
the Student Association, is now irying its best to provide
some kind of protection for students by providing ther
with some information about bad landlords, Still, the
University's decision not to protect its students has already
caused needless suffering and financial loss

The Union is you

To the Editor:
No, the Student Union is not the Campus Center! It’s
Ot even the same thing as Student Association
The Student Union is a grassroots organization that wits

originally formed eight years duo when the green SUNY
buses were threatened with a take over by CDTA, The
tudents were successful in keeping the yreen busey and
since then, the Aibany Student Union has been involved in
many ¢lforts suet as the Save SUNY rally and the Follett's
bookstore sit-in three years ayo

Recently, the Student Union played an important cole in
aining the right for students in Albany (0 register anid vote

Glections are decided by fess that 10,000 voles — there are

meaning of all this nonsense is simple, The United States

Gcorge took sixth in the 4x880 relay, while
Hill grabbed sixth in the 200-meter dash,
and Smyth crossed the finish line fourth in

In the indoor season's final event,
Albany finished well. Bloomer again placed
in the 600-meter race, but improved on her
NYSAIAW performance and finished se-
cond in the EAIAW. Stern raced to a
fourth place finsih in the 800 meter and
Hill-Bloomer-Stern-Dann enjoyed a sixth
place finish in the distance medley relay

A team that only months earlier were 0-8
Was now placing highly at regional competi-
tion, Everyone else felt that they had gone
as far as they could go. But White and his

troupes saw their success as only a team
which began to show some potential,

“1 felt that Bloomer could be an All:
American,’” praised Smyth, Now the team
Was not only having a good time at WT's,
but were also being successful when they
ran, White was beginning to see the fruits
of his efforts. The team that threw him a
birthday party after knowing him for wo
Weeks was seeing the birth of what would
become Albany's most successful season in
a women’s program,

Going into the outdoor season, the
emergence of a truly credible relay team was
present, Hill-Smyth-Stern-Bloomer were
developing rapidly in the 4x400-meter relay
Stern and Bloomer were running
phenomenally, The women were ready to
conquer the world, But in the opening event
Of the spring season, they couldn't even

conquer Brockport. Brockport spoiled the
Danes outdoor debut and once again
Albany was winless, But the women would
ot stay winless for long or lose again as
they recorded six straight victories en route
to & 6-1 season, “The outdoor season was

our breakthrough,” expressed White.

The 6-1 record could be called a highlight
Of the season, but it could not top what was
to come starting in the NYSAIAW,

The relay team that was emerging could
not possibly climb any higher when they
finished first in their event, the 4x400-meter
relay. Bloomer, Stern, Hill, and Smyth had
reached what every track athlete strives for;
gold medals, The women athletes would not
stop at that event and placed high in other
events. Bloomer placed fourth in the
400-meter dash, Stern finished third in the
800-meter run, Hill clocked in fifth in the
200-meter dash, and Dann, who in every
Face ran a faster time than in her previous
10,000-meter run, finished fourth,

Dann is possibly the epitome of this track
team, She was recruited while walking
around the gym, She didn't place in her
first few races, now holds the Albany State
record for the 10,000-meter run, and at-
tributes Coach White for her success

“Coach White works with you as your

peer, He wants you to improve and you
want to improve, Without him 1 wouldn't
be here,"” acknowledged Dann

Dann and the four relay runners were not
finished for the 1982 outdoor track season
At the EAIAW’s they again found
themselves in competition for top honors.
Bloomer improved her New York State
400-meter performance by finishing second
Stern completed the 800-meter run in
fourth place, Hill finished fifth in. the
200-meter dash, while Dann finished
seventh in the 10,000-meler run:

It was then on to the final event of the
1981-82 women's ‘track program — the
AIAW's or simply the Nationals, White's
team, which started out 0-8 now had four

Booters settle for

By Marc Schwarz
STAFF WAITER

The Albany State men’s soccer team had to settle for
a disappointing 2-2 tie when Brockport scored a goal
with a minute and a half remaining in the second over-
time period, Saturday, in Brockport,

The Danes had taken the lead at 5:05 of the second
extra ten minute period on John Isselhard's second
goal of the game. The tic left the Danes with a 2-2-2
mark for the season,

Coach Bill Schieffelin was disappointed with the
esult, ‘We tried to protect our lead and they just
snuck one in on us," he said, ‘We became too protec-
tive, bringing the defense too close in to the goal,’

Brockport scored first at 27:35 when Dane defender
Michael Miller miskicked a ball and Bob Barber ran
past him and netted an casy goal past a flat footed
goalie, Tom Merritt. Miller, a standout for the Danes
all season made one of his rare mistakes. ‘I guess he
Just proved to us that he's human,’ said Schieffelin,

The Danes responded with a goal of their own at
53:10, Isselhard took a pass from Jerry Isaacs, beat a
defender and drilled it pass Brockport goalie Steve
Pauley from ten yards out.

Albany controlled the game and had two or three
good opportunities to win in regulation, ‘We were on
the threshhold, but we couldn't put the ball in the net
I's frustrating, there was no reason why it should have
gone into overtime," sald Schieffelin.

After a scoreless first overtime, Isselhard again took
4 pass from Isaacs and beat Pauley to the right side,
According to Schieffelin, that was when the Danes
went into their shell: "We retreated so much, we
couldn't hold on,’ A ball in the penalty area bounced
‘over Merritt for the tying goal.

“We have to get on track. I thought the go ahead
goal would start to build some momentum,” explained

Except for the finish, Schieffelin was pleased with
the way his offense performed, Following last week's

tegrated into the offense more, "Then son-of-a-gun,

STAFF WAITER

The mens cross country track team raised its record
to 3-4 Saturday afternoon by defeating Colgate 37-21,
Albany State coach Bob Munsey praised the tcams's

Shapiro, 1 hope we can carry the momentum for the
next few weeks,"”

Albany's Ian Clements took first on the $.15 mile

27:22, Chris Cellaci who came in fifth in 27:30. Todd
Silves eighth and Jim Erwins ninth in 27:54,

“Twas impressed by the fact that our runners finish

And post-season meets,

At their first Invitational at the University
of Vermont they finished fourth in a six
team meet. When the {eam finished fourth
out of nine teams in the Cortland Invita-
tional at least one member of the team felt
that they had turned the corner. ‘1 felt at
Cortland that we had a good tcam, Barb
Hill, Sue Stern, and Kim Bloomer were
beginning to run 60's in their 400 quarters,”
aid Smyth, the other member of the 4x400
neler relay team.

White felt that the indoor season, in
cluding a seventh place finish in a 17 school
field at the NYSAIAW Invitational, ‘was a
taste as to what was to come.'? As a team,
the women were developing physically as
Well as emotionally, They were beginning to
see the results of White's practices, ‘At
first we weren't used (0 his (White's) pro-
gram, but we slowly adapted to it,"” added
Smyth.

Dann commented that there is a “family
atmosphere’ around the team and it
definitely improved her running: ‘1
wouldn't run without the feeling that
everybody cares and are supportive."”

White saw the competitiveness growing
and points to five people who were the core
of it: Stern, Bloomer, Hill, Smyth and

conference is being held during a critical
time for SUNY students, Citing Reagan's
student loan cuts and the State's SUNY

He said the conference will train students
on how to organize and become active to
‘defend their education.””

SASU!s Executive Vice President Scott
Wexler, said that 150 student leaders from
all SUNY schools are expected to attend,

Wexler said a variety of workshops and
guest speakers will familiarize students with
all the major issues facing students and
make them more effective leaders in
organizing amd motivating their consti-
tuents.

Speakers scheduled include Peter Peyser,
“one of the best Congressmen in terms of
higher education,’” according to Wexler.

SA lawyer Mark Mishler believes the laws
in New York governing the conduction of
election favor the SA request

Election Laws.

paragraph three states there may be one

950 voters.

Mishler also noted that any election

ward polling place located at St, Margaret
Mary's School, off Western avenue.

Corso believes since the district must be
divided, it makes sense to include the cam:
pus, thus establishing a polling place on
campus,

Subparagraph five of the Election Law
mandates that “any alteration or subdivi-
sion of the election district shall be made
before July 1 of that same year,"

Tn the event the legislative body(Al
Common Council) fails to do so, then the
County Board of Elections shall do so,” as
stated in subparagraph six. Neither the

available for comment,

Corso can see no reason why there is not
enough time for a polling place to be
established in time for this election,

Mishler questioned why this booth was
not established before this time, He
believes renotifying voters would take only
three days and has promised that SA would
assist the election commission with publici
ty by notifying student voters where to
vote.

Mishler said he hopes to have an order
for the Board of Elections to show cause
for not establishing the new polling place.

If this happens there should be a hearing
