Winning Streak Ends Before 8,000 Fans
by Cralg Bet
The roof fell'in on the Albany
Great Dane football team Saturday,
as the Ithaca Bombers laid to rest
any hope the Great Danes had of a
national championship as they
pasted State 33-0 before 8100 fansat
University Field,
It was Albany's first loss in their
last thirteen encounters, their first
home loss since 1971, and the first
time they have been shutout asa var-
sity unit,
The first quarter was almost over
when Ithaca quarterback Jerry
Boyes capped an 86 yard drive by
scrambling 19 yards for a score.
Boyes, under a heavy rush from a
fine Albany front four, used his 4.4
speed to get away and elude would-
be tackler, cornerback, Harry Me-
Donough at the 13 yard tine, Dave
Piper added the extra point and
The second quarter saw the
Danes’ punting go awry. Kicking
from his own end zone, Orin Griffin
‘couldn't handle a bad shap and was
forced to nun. Ithaca took control on
the Dane 21 yard line.
Two plays later Amie Will picked
off a Boyes pass and gave the ball
back to the offense.
‘Once again Albany was unable to
move the ball, Led by Al DiMartino,
the Bomber’, outstanding
The Dane defense stops the Bombers short in second quarter action, Albany's hopes for an upset
were dashed as they lost 33-0.
Booters Down Engineers, 6-0
by Nathan Salant
Pascuali Petricione scored two
first period goals, and Frank Selca
‘added two more in the second half,
as the Albany Suite varsity soccer
team went on to defeat host RPI 6-0
in their season opener Saturday.
Matty Denora and Jimmy
Alvarez also found the net as the
Booters dominated play and out-
shot. the Engineers, 26-10.
“Offensively we played very well,”
said Booters Coach Bill Scheiffelin,
“We were aggressive, passed the ball
very quickly and efficiently, and
generally did not over-play or over-
dribble.”
The Danes jumped out in front
early in the first half when Petricione
took a cross from Denora, und beat
The Albany Booters successfully detend their goal in firethali of RPI

from 10 yards out.
Petricione tallied again with six
minutes left in the half, this timeona
feed from Jorge Aguilar, and the
Danes led 2-0 when the gun sounded
to end the first half
“When we retumed to the field to
start the second half, | was concern=
ed that our playersmight try tosit on
their two goal lead," said Schieffelin,
Such vas not the ease
Two iinutes into the period,
Frank Selea brode through the
id put the Danes ahead,
Twenty-four seconds later,
Denara scaree, and the Booters were
on their way
“We have not scored six gouls in
me in our lust (wo seasons,"
said Schiellelin, “The last occassion
was in the fall of 1972, when the
Danes downed QueensCollege, 6-3."
(Incidentally, the Danes did not win
another game that year.)
“Our starting team played lesa
thin half the game,” Schielfetin
continued, nd our substitutes®
played very well, The sixth goal was
set up neatly by Paul Schiesel, und
sent home by Alvarez, We did not
score a single cheap goa).”
Defense Disappointing
Despite the shutout, Schieffelin
was not sitisfied with the defense,
“We did not mark our men as
tightly aswe should have," explained
Schieffelin, "We got away with that,
and made a few other mistakes
which probably would have cost us
against teams like Oneonta and
Keane State. Fortunately we did not
make the mistakes early in the game,
or we might not be counting our
blessings right now."

Albany was forced to punt from
their end zone again and Griffin was
forced to take a safety as the snap
went over his head.
Al Martin then kicked off and
Ithaca moved from their own 45
down to the Dune 10, Once again the
State Defense stiffened and held the
Bombers on the State two.
Dave Ahonen entered the game,
replacing starting quarterback John
Bertuzzi, and tried to rally his
troops. But it was a futile attempt.
Time and time again linebackers
DiMartino, Nicolato, and company
tate linestop-
ping the play before it got started.
Ithaea added another score right
before the half ended as Boyes went
back to pass om his own 48 yard line
and hooked up with running back
Yom Baier for a 52 yard touchdown
pass. Piper kicked the extra point
‘and Ithaca had a very comfortable
halftime lead, 16-0.
The Danes received the opening
kickoff in the second half but were
unable tp move,
The pffensiye line on the whole
credible job, but we lacked con-
istencylon the comers. We couldn't
sustain a drive,” were Coach Ford's
comments.
“Andy Lee had his hands full try-
ing to handle DiMartino when he
could get to him,” continued Ford.
“It just seemed like there was
someone who broke down on each
play.”
Jerry Boyes kept Ithaca rolling as
he engineered two third quarter
drives both ending in touchdown
passes to split end Bill Bryant, Scott
Billings added a 39 yard field goal in
the forth quarter to close out the
scoring. 2
Boyes completed 10 of 25 passes
for 19 yardsand three touchdowns.
“They concentrated on stopping
our running attack and I guess it
took away from their pass defense
said Boyes after the game
“We didn’t know what to expect
from Albany but we had heard that
they were an excellent ballelub,”
were DiMartino’s comments alter
the game,
Ithaca coach Jim Butterfield add-
ed that he was surprised that Albany
was able to co
three short years and that they
weren't far from becoming an out
standing ball club
Couch Ford felt that
just physically too strong for the
Danes but as he said, "there wasn't a
damned thing we could doabout it.”
addition he was impressed with
the speed of the Ithaca defense, "We
knew they were big but we didi’ ex
pect them to be so quick," explained
Ford.
He felt the defense did its job in
shutting off the run, but it forced the
Danes to use man to man covi
on the pass, which hurt
Ford singled out Albuny's front
six: ends, John Adamson and Kevin
Murphy, tackles Frank Villanova
and Tiny Holloway and linebackers
Ken Schoen and Kurt Bennett for
doing excellent jobs all day long in
stopping the run.
As for Boyes, Ford had nothing
but compliments, "He is just an out-

Debate Continues Over Mohawk Tower
Administration Researches Feasibility
by Rick Palley
Debate continues over SA's recent
Proposal that Mohawk Tower be
converted from an office facility into
a dormitory. Administration of-
ficials have raised questions concer-
ning the feasibility of such a move
and are now doing extensive
reseacch into the matter.
Part of the debate centers around
the deadline for re-allocation of the
$137,000 that accordingto SA Presi
dent Andy Bauman, would be freed
by the conversion of Mohawk from
an office to a dormitory facility
David Coyne, Central Council
Chairperson, explained: “What
we're working on nowis... how much
time we have before the decision has
to be made.
SA executives are concerned that
the administration might tke too
long researching the move, thereby
missing the deadline for budget
changes. If they approve it later, the
conversion will have to wait until the

budget is sometime next month.
Bauman mentioned the possibility
of recommending to the State
Legislature that the $137,000 be cut
from the SUNYA budget as an un-
necessary expense, using this threat
to quicker action by the administra-
tion. Such a budget cut would force
the conversion of Mohawk ‘Tower
into a dorm,
Dean for Student Affairs Neil
Brown noted that the discussion has
already left campus (via ASP and
Tower Tribune): “Many people in
staje government have access to the
information that there's a question
being raised.”
Brown pointed out that more in-
formation is needed before a deci-
sion to convert Mohawk is made, He
expressed concern that SA is looking
at the Mohawk Tower solution in
“splendid isolation” of other factors
influencing the housing problem.

‘Another problem involved in the
decision to convert Mohawk to a

convenience from students living at

Housing Director John Welty
however noted that many students
have expressed interest in remaining
in the Wellington, and some uptown
students are asking to be put there

Welty feels that, by the second
semester, anyone dissitisfied with
living at Wellington will be able to

CUNY Students Protest Tuition
by Sue Emerson
Governor Carey will not call a
special session of the legislature in
order to review the City University
of new York's (CUNY) request that
the state give the university all the
money which it, was originally
allocated under the matching funds
formula, according to Carey's Depu-
lyPressSceretary Howard Clark. says
Clark, “We cannot, without further
endangering state finances, call a
special session for City university.”
By law, the state is required to
match operating expenses with the
four-year CUNY institutions dollar

stitutions receive matching state
funds totaling 40%of their operating
expenses.) In response to massive

Richard Rothbard admits that one

One way of handling its shortage

those students who cannot afford to

ble for various forms of financial
assistance such as the Tuition

Hollander, the next move in regards
to Nyquist’s proposal rests with the
City's Board of Higher Education.
Board chairman Alfred A. Giar-
dino replied to Nyquist’s proposal in
1 letter dated September 17. “Per-
sonally,” Giardino stated, “I do not

Giardino concludes that “the most
appropriate and equitable alter

receipt of the monies from the state
already appropriated.”
According to Mr. Aberth, Ex-
ecutive Assistant to the Board of
Higher Education, “The Board isnot
going to institute tuition, Hopefully,
we're going to try to get funding by
the state.”

Dr. Fields addressed himself to the State of the Senate. Comparing himself
to arsystems engineer, Fields compared the Senate to machine witha low rate

Senators. Fields docs not feel, however, that the Senate is useless or beyond
repair. He made the following suggestions as to ways that the Senate could
increase its efficiency.
Dr. Fields recommended that less time ne-
itself, He also felt that greater respect fo’
down on duplication of effort. Dr. Fields asserteu that in discussion of items
such as the meaning ofa liberal arts degree, the Senate was over reaching its
jurisdiction. His statement that such things should be left to the faculty of the

The revision of Undergraduate Final Examination Policy (Bill 197475-08)

1975. Action on it last semester was delayed by extensive debate and lack of a
quorum, Its major points provide that final exams be restricted to that week
at the end of each semester set aside for that purpose, that tents in the last
week of classes be announced well in advance and that two reading days be
taken out of the fifteenth week of class. ‘The Bill would still allow for special

~~ Hot Bikes. ite Sill Rollh Rolling
by Lols Goldstein
For the past several years, the
number of bicycle thefts on campus
has remained at a steady level of ap-
proximately 65 annually. However,
in the past two weeks, at least cight
bicycles have been stolen. Most of
these were appropriated from the
area around Draper Hall on the
Downtown Campus, For this
reason, Security has recommended
that the available bike racks in that
area be moved toa more visiblesite.
The great majority of those bikes
stolen were of the newer European
and 10-speed variety. Unfortunately,
the recovery rate in these cases is ex-
tremely low for two reasons. One
reason behind the lack of recoveries
is because most of these thefis are
performed by male high school
students from the surrounding com-
munity. After taking the bikes, they
are not usually seen again, The other
cause behind this adverse
phenomenon: lies within the
students themselves.
Upon entering SUNYA, each bike
‘owner is expected 6 register his or
her bicycle with Security. This free
Process consists of simply com-
Pleting a data card with the owner's
name, ‘address, Social Security
number and a description of the
bike, In return, the student's Social
Security number is engraved onto
the bicycle. This isdone asa form of
identification, since most people do
Rot remember their bicycle's serial
number.

believes that the number of arrests
made haveinereased,althoughexaet

tributes this to both “b
right place at the right time” and in-
creased alertness on the part of
passers-by.
Lock Your Bikes
Despite the peak times for bike
thefts obviously being the warmer
months such as April, May and
September, it is still recommended
that all bikes always be locked up
securely (preferably with stainless
steel, ultra-high security locks which
‘are the most effective deterrents) ia

Practice of removing the front tireof
the bike is not really nesestary,
although it does increase theamount
of time needed for the theft to be ac-
complished,
Many Unregistered
Most “locked bikes on the
Academic Podium were chained to
the railing rather than the available
bike racks located near the library
and the Campus Center. Themajori-
ty of students interviewed did not
have their bikes registered with
Security either. Some, including
those who have been students at
Albany State for several years,
professed to be completely ignorant
of the process, Students who felt that
Security's measures for bike theft
prevention were inadequate, were
unable themselves to find other
solutions,

‘September 26, 1975
by Jim Furlong
I've often wondered how a good musician
gets discovered. Where and when docs’ it
bhppen? How much exposure docs a talent
need before someone sits up and says “God-
dammit, sign that son-of-a-bitch, and get us
recording studio"? Who do you talk to when
you want someone with pull in the music in-
dustry to listen to a long overdue talent? Man,
sometimes it gets exasperating. | mean what
motivated someone to take a chance on
Presley, the Beatles, or Elton John?
Charlie Smith has paid his dues for a long
time. The Albany area has been blessed with
his brand of blues since the late sixties. Most
people I talk to figure Charlie to be between
twenty-six and thirty-one. The fact is, Charlie
is a mere twenty-four years old. This
remarkable young man plays guitar the way
most of us fantasize playing it, With the
fingers of a master, Charlie waiks, runs, and
dances ueross the frets, creating some of the
finest riffs ever heard in this area, maybe even
the whole country
The majority of the people reading this do
not know of this guitarist extraordinaire,
Most of you, not being from this area, have a
Jot more to do on your weekends than to take
the time to check out the local talent, I have
had the good fortune (I've come to realize) of
growing up in this town and of being able to
watch Charlie Smith develop into the most ae-
complished und confident guitarist in thearea
He could be looked upon as the John
Mayall of the Albany area. Throughout his
career many talented musicians have come
and gone for assorted reasons have moved on
to different things.
As fur back as "68and 69, Charlie was in the
limelight, One of his first public appearances
was in a local bar called the “Elbow Room”
ie just sat there and played acoustic
+ for a usually unmusically oriented
crowd. Theownershad toask him to takea fif-
teen minute break so the clientele would start
buying drinks again.
He had a near brush with success back then.
Schenectady at that time had a combination
nightclub and concert hall called the
Actodrome”. During its short life it had
many up and coming recording artists ps
form there. People like: Led Zeppelin
Steppenwolf, Janis Joplin, Chicago and B.B.
King to namea few. The nightof the B.B. King
Show, Charlie's band, which consisted of
Charlie on guitar and harp; Andy Shawn on
pass; Bill Menantitis on drums; and Bruce
Huker on organ, played second billing. B.B.
wats very impressed with Charliewnd asked his
band to come and play with him at Newport
Unfortunately Charlie was on probation for
smoking that demon weed and was not allow
ed to leave the city by his probation officer
First Encounter
My firstencounter with Charlie was in 1969.
I was at the impressionable age of 15. My ex
periences with live music up to that time were
few and far between. Led Zepplin, whese first
album was out only a half year was appearing
at the “Aerodrome”. | picked up a ticket for
the early show. Charlie's bund came out and
played their balls off for forty-five minutes
nd unfortunately got off to let a rather non-
descript group called “Spider” inflict a load of
noise on our ears. | can honestly say that
Charlie Smith had a lot to do with my dis-
covery of the blues that nightAfter that, Iwas
hooked, | went anywhere he was playing.
Coffechouses, outdoor concerts, libraries, and
even an occasional sneak into a night club.
The mancould play tll his chops were rawand
I wanted to kick out the jams.
Every freak in the areawill alwaysremember
the Sunday concertsin Washington Park back
in the summer of °71. The now defunct “Refer
Switchboard" sponsored these weckly events
included Jim Menantitis, (Bill's brother on
bass; Bob Levine on drums; Bernie Mulleda
on guitar; and Mike Hopper on saxophone)
were one of the regulars, Man, it was like San
Franeisco hit Albany four years late, Wine,
\iful people, outdoor theatre, and the
Smith Band. Nothing else seemed to
matter after Charlie ji
day
——————————
“I was hooked.”
His commund over his audience even then
was awesome. L attribute this to the sincerity
he emits while on stage. To watch Charlie isto
werstand him, All that matters up there is
that guitar, He makes you listen to his conver
sation with his axe, People immediately stop
whatever they are saying or doing when
Charlie starts on asong. Hismusiedraws your
response from out of your body.
After that summer, Charlie headed down to
New York City to work with some people for
about five months. On Christmas Eve Charlie
was sitting up in his room at the Chelsea Hotel
playing his guitar. He suddenly heard another
tar copying his riffs from across the hall.
He grabbed his guitar and ran across to see
who it was. It was Dicky Betts of the then not
too famous Allman Brothers Band. The band
was in New York for the first time to play the
Fillmore. Soon Charlie and Dicky were
trading riffs off each other, When the rest of
the band arrived he even got to sit and jam
with Duane Allman, That must have been
some Christmas.
After New York, Charlie headed back up
here and has been running the full route of
nightclubs in this area, Up until carly this year,
he involved with a regular group of
musicians that could be seen on almost any
weekend. The band consisted of: Jim Menan-
titis, Mike Hopper, John Keevil on piano,
Jack Bruno on drumsand the fabulous Laura
Whitney on vocals. This was a pretty tight
group, but all good things (especially in
musieal groups) must come to an end; due to
personal endeavors and growing pains, that
particular band dissolved in January.
Since that period last winter, Chi
decided to keep a sort of weekly relationship
with his musicians, You can go into a
nightclub on any weekend and find Charlie
jamming with a different set of people His
only regulars right at this moment are: Tom
Charlie Sings the Blues
Watso on bass, and Sam Farkas on guitar,
Tom Watso has to be the best all around
bass man in town, Originally from Albany
Tom has a vast range of experience. He has
played with people like Buzzy Feeton, the
Young Rascals, Peter Nero, Mandrill, and
Edgar Winter. Tom has toured with Leon
Russell. Freddie King and the Persuasions. He
also appears on an album by Allan Gerber
(formerly of Rhinocerous) and healso played
‘on a Loudon Wainwright album, Those arc
pretty goddam good credentials.
n Farkas, another local man is probably
bet known to most people for his jazz show
‘on WRPI every Sunday night, Sam is basical-
ly a jazz. guitarist. Hehas studied under Chuck
Wayne, and knows many top names in the jazz
world personally, He has a lot going on out-
side of jamming with Charlie. Most of the jazz
events in this area get here because of Sam
Farkas. Until recently he was strictly jazz but
of late he is trying his hand at the blues. The
results are fabulous. Sam is also responsible
for the recent jazz influence in Charlie's music.
1 had the pleasure of spending an afternoon
with Charlie over at his Quail Street apart-
ment and I got some insight into his head and
what he wants out of life. We talked a little bit
about everything and he also played tapes of
some “rough sketches” of songs on acoustic
guitar which he plans to develop and record.
Early Influences
My first question was very unoriginal but |
‘was surprised at the response. asked who was
his biggest influence of the blues guitar. He
old me it was Peter Green of the old
Fleetwood Mac. He had seen them at the
Fillmore in New York City in 68 and while
watching Green he decided “That's me. That's
what | want to play.”
I didn’t expect his biggest blues influence to
be a white Englishman, But thereit is: not B.B.
King, not T. Bone Walker, but Peter Green.
Our conversation then turned to his current
sound and use of musicians and his attitude
towards music.
Charlie admits that his biggest musical in-
fluence back in the sixties and still today are
the Beatles. He feels that their music has a style
and smoothness that he wants to accomplish
in his performances. B.B. King isalso high on
his list Charlie includes a few of B.B.’s songs
in his gigs; "Ask Me No Questions”, “Sweet,
Little Angel”, and “I Woke Up This Mora,
ning". .
Charlie at present seems to be very content
with his touch and go use of musicians, He is
serious when he sayshe doesn't want toget too
close to his band. He feels that when you see
each other all of the time and play out four or
five nights a week, you lose a freshnessin your
music, Unlike most musicians who look fot
companionship: in order to sound tight,
Charlie wants to improve his sound by giving,
his musicians and himself a chanceto discover
new directions in music.
“The result of this separation seems to be an
advantage when one goes to his weekend gigs.
Every time 1 see them, 1 pick up new things:
each of the musicians are trying out on each
other, But the main force behind the group is
Charlie, He calls the shots. The band plays
what he plays.
‘Drop-in’ Musicians
Charlie is combination performer and
director. His regulars, Tom and Sam, follow
and keep a steady rhythm for him to play on,
Charlie likes this, He appreciates a musician
who will start a songata certain paceand keep
it throughout, This is why you will still see him
use Jack Bruno on the drums when he can get
him, Jack's basic “Ringo Starrish” sort of
drumming can successfully keep the pace for
Charlie. He considers Jack the most comfor-
twble drummer to work with, presently.
Charlieencourages his musicians to develop
their own musical style but at the same time
giving him what he is looking for. This
dent by his selection of “drop-in” musicia
Bernie Mulleda, a local guitarist who has been
playing about as long as Charlie, had some of
his blues roots with: a few years back, Ber-
nie played with Charlie as well as some very
successful high school bands in the area in the
mid and late sixties. But, as of late, Bernie has
been leaning more towards jazz. He currently
has a group called “Sweetback” playing
around this area, When his group isn't gigg!-
ing, though, you may see him sit in with
Charlie for an evening. .
On a recent Saturday at the King of Clubs
‘on Ontario Street, Charlie's band played, Tom
and Jack were there along with Bernie on
guitar, a fantastic electric pianist named Len
Muscle (who is in Bernie's group) and Brubby
Taylor, a dynamite percussionist who has
been gigging with Charlie for the last few
weekends. When the last set started, Mike
Hopper, Charlie's old sax player was on the
stage. This unexpected reunion of all these
people jived into one of the tightest last sets
T've seen at any club ina longtime. It’s nights
like that one which make success seem in-
evitable.
I suppose success was on Charlie's mind but
Lalways selfishly hoped he was content tostay
in Albany and play for his following. | was
wrong! He definitely plans on getting out of
whether music has anything to do
with it or not. Charlie is quite honest about
success, “Yeah, sure | want success. It would
be like a dream come true.” He anticipates
national success some day, but he wants it on~
his terms only. Charlie is wise to|people in the
music industry. Before he signs any contracts
he’s going to get what he wantsfirst, Youhave
to possess a lot of confidence in your ability to
be able todemand this and Charlie has it, Un-
til the righeman with the right contract comes
‘along, Charlie is content doing just as he is
now. :
It will be a sad and happy day for this city
when Charlie Smith makes it. But until he
does I'm going tokeep track of him here, every
chance I get.
If you'd like to check him out, he: iscurrently
playing at the Duck Soup nightclub on Fourth
Street in Rensselaer. The club has a warm at-
mosphere and it's worth the dollar cover,

Spirit of ’76
by Bill Castle
spirit is back, after a two year
..with a new record company
and a new sound. Though much
more reserved than previousalbums,
thisalbum doescontain Spirit's most
notable asset, originality.
Spirit of ‘76 also marks the return
of guitar playing, electronic wizard,
Randy California, who left Spirit
shortly after the release of their
Twelve Dreams of Doctor Sar-
donicus album. Along with Randy
Californi original Spirit
member Ed Cassidy on drums, and
newcomer Barry Keene on bass.
California, who had been converted
to electric guitar by close friend Jimi
Hendrix retums to acoustic for a
large portion of this album.
Although Califomia often goes
overboard with his use of electronic
gimmicks, as proven on the cuts
“Jack Bond” and “Tampa Jam”, his
sound effects do play an important
part in the rest of the album,
This album contains seventeen
original tunes. written mostly by
California, which are, for the most
part, very good. The significa
this album, though, ism
originals but the remarkable ver~
sions of tunes written by others.
The high point of this album isan
excellent version of Dylan's “Like a
Rolling Stone”. ‘The way Spirit
adapts this song is truly a work of
art, They add new lifeand power toa
tune which in its original form, is
already a classic. Spirit's version of
“The Star Spangled Banner” is en-
joyable and almost as unbelievable
ay their version of Dylan's “The
Himes They Are a Cha r
mixed with “America The
Beautiful”

Goodnick being much more deliberate and
planned out in his leads, Pat Metheny’s style
resembles that of Larry Coryell in that they are
very fast and long runs.
Over the summer, while the group was idle,
Metheny, along with Moses and Swallow
formed a trio todosome touring. At one point
they played a date in Schenectady, doing
original songs.
The set was a mixture of original material,
such as Rick Goodnick’s “Bevy Levy" along
with sdards such as Gil Evan's “Las Vegas
Tango.” Each song was performed excellently
by the quintet, What made the songs different
from any other group’s interpretation of them
was Gary Burton on his playing.
The Burton Band, on the other hand, prov
cd itself a cohesiveunit of seasoned musicians.
Gary Burton himyelf hay gained a reputation
for his ability to form excellent groups. Over
his fong career (nineteen plus albums), he has
had in his groups such musicians as Chick
Corea, Larry Coryell, and Bob Moses, The
present Burton band, a solid touring unit,
Features Steve Swallow and Bob Moses.bob
Moses is one of the best drummers playing to-
day. In speed, ingenuity, and feelin
music he is playing, Mosesisa positiveasset to
any group. When it comes to bassmen, Steve
Swallow is one of the most respected players
and composers, On Sunday night, both
musicians lived up to their reputations ad~
mirably, providing body and movement to all
the songs.
Along with Steve Swallow on bass, the
group was joined by guest musician Eberhert
Weber, abo on bass. Weber's bass playing was
just as unique as his custon made five string
98 (the instrument was made from the neck
and bridge of a string bass, mounted ona solid
wood frame with pick-ups). The tunes Weber
did play on, he worked well with Swallow,
though at times he did tend to dominate the
songs, over-powering the rest of the group.
The soft, lulling effect of the vibraphone
along with the unhurried pace of the music,
blended well with the night-club atmosphere.
The Gary Burton Quintet isnot out to impress
or try to top anyone; they are on top.

Electric: From Fok to Rock
by Cynthia Hacinlt
Playing in a hall barely half full could dishearten, if
not dent the ego and music of any performer. Last
Monday night at the Palace theater, Fairport
Convention and Caravan overcame and even ignored
this obstacle and put on a smashing show
Caravan opened the concert with a cut from the
recently released Cunning Stunts album. The sony
“Show of Our Lives” proved a testimonial to theirentire
performance. Slow and smooth, bass player Mike
Wedgewood, (whose voice is reminiscent of Gri
Lake's), sang out the lyrics with perfect aplomb.
‘The rest of the group went about their music with a
similar calmness. It became evident that this inertia had
been a psychological, attention-getting tactic when the
band began their second song. As if suddenly startled
into motion, they swung into action and continued for
the rest of their performance with an amazing output of
energy which at no time ebbed or faltered. It was in this
song that the talent, perhaps even genius of Geoffrey
Richardson, who had whipped out his electric viola
challenged it, and eventually became a part of it. Using
the dissonant notes, and counter melodies and
harmonies, characteristic of moder classical music, ho
managed to integrate the strains of the viola with the
band.
Richardson was clearly the focal point of audience
interest. His contortions, his expressions—all at once
tense, hateful, ecstatic—and his understanding of the
drama of music, incited the audience to scrutinize and
follow his every movement.
Richardson also plays a startlingly cerie flute, made
moreso by the dimming ofall stage lights -the spotlight
playing upon him and the flute gleaming. He always

‘Noble Petition
Unnoticed
To the Eakor:
Recently in Roswell, New Mexico, a
reporter typed up the Declaration of In-
dependence as a “petition”. She stopped 100
persons, out of which 36 signed. It was
recognized by only four people!
The reporter was called a Communist and
told by two men that “documents such as this
called for tearing down our form of govern-
ment and would start riots and result in
protest meetings.” One of them threatened to
call the police.
‘There is something terribly wrong with an
educational system that breeds s0 much con-
formity to the status quo and produces people
‘who can't even abide the noble revolutionary
Declaration of Independence.
1 was handing’ out Socialist Labor Party
leaflets and a marfinsisted to methat Nelson
Rockefeller is a Socialist. What a joke!

paper of the Socialist Labor Party, the Weekly
People, is available in the SUNY Albany

Burning the

To the Editor:
Jam writing this from the viewpoint of adis-
gusted female. I believe in freedom of the
press, but I do think that a college newspaper
should take into consideration the variety of
students reading it. 1 am referring to Ken
Wax’s Castles Burning column. If Mr. Wax's
intent is to totally gross out the female popula-
tion at SUNY then | must commend him on
a job well done. However, if Castles Burning is,
supposed to be humorous then Ken has missed
the boat.
1 have previously found Mr. Wax to be an
intelligent and funny person andookedfoward
to reading his column. Obviously the summer
sun affected himina way that he can no longer
mix sex and humor tastefully.
realize that he could respond to this by tell-
ing me not to read his column, but of course
d would be a ridiculous answer since |
couldn't possibly know how bad the column is
until I read it.
| would hope that Mr. Wax thinks about
this before writing hisnext column, because as
of now Castles Burning is definitely burnt!

To the Eéltor:
"At the September 10 Council meeting, 1
brought up some food from the Rathskeller.
Having not eaten the entire day, expected to
fully enjoy my cheeseburger, cheese doodles,
pretzel (which, incidentally, was’ hot and
soft—quite a treat foran FSA pretzel) and one
beer.
‘But I was wrong. For, upon attacking my
supper, I was informed by Council Chairper-
son Dave Coyne that I had an illegal stimulant
in the room. According to Bill 7475—113
“alcohol, and other depressants or stimulants
as well as contraband [is] prohibited in the
Central Council chambers...”. Kind of
nebulous, yes? Does that include hot pants (a
stimulant), or textbooks (a depressant)?
The Chair then ordered me to remove my
beer. Now, I'm not an alcoholic, and I wasn't
drunk or rowdy. I was merely sipping a beer
with my dinner, For this heinous crime, Cen~
tral Council wasted almost an hour of
valuable time (about 20% of the meeting)
debating my censure, And censured 1 was.
Censure is a slap on the wrist—“naughty,
naughty, Jon”—which means nothing in itself.
But it does indicate the Council's priorities—
dissipating itself on restrictive, stupid rules
which are more repressive than many of the
schoo! Administration's regulations.
During the following week's meeting, an of-
ficial of the FSA was invited—being a nice
‘suy, and wishing to facilitate things, he was
kind enough to bring a healthy number of
and several pitchers of beer. Within
minutes, about a deter Council reps were
drinking in a location approximately four feet
ray from where I had been the week before.
In fact, many of those enjoying the beer had
had more than ‘I drank the previous week.
Well, I was understandably pissed off about
this hypocrisy.
‘Anyway, I had spotted two members com-
mitting no-no's. One was drinking coffee
(which contains caffeine, a stimulant) and
another was smoking a cigarette (and nicotine
is, as you know, a stimulant)—therefore 1
moved to censure these two. Now, Idon't real-
ly give a shit whether someone smokes or
drinks coffee at the meetings—but the fact
was, they had violated the letter of the
law....uthey broke the same rule I had.
They had done so with the same amount of
malice (none), evil consequences (1ione), and
inebriation (none) that I had. Nevertheless, 1
felt that their censure might help show how
ridiculous the rule was. The result.....the mo-
tion to censure failed for lack of a second. Not
one other rep (including those who had drank
beer earlier on) felt that breaking the rule was
bad this week.
Selective enforcement? Bias? Inequality?
Yes.....but then, nobody's ever accused Coun-
cil of being consistant. Actually, they are, to
an amazing degree, consistantly inconsistant.
‘The problem is that this group of people
control a half-million dollars of mandatory
student tax money. Off which each student
contributes (is forced to pay) 66 bucks a year.

Bridging the Gap
‘A generation gap between the “not quite
30's” and the “just over 20's?" Nay, you reply;
yes, say I. The burden beneath which we could
not falter was to man and woman the ram-
parts, to wage the war of non-violence in the
streets, armed with naught but open hearts
and hands full of roses placing the stemmed
blossoms into the muzzles of the M-16's
Ironic, how a college generation conceived
and born at the end of the last great holocaust,
perhaps in the womb when Fermi’s sun burst
over Hiroshima, should tremble at the words
of the Bhagavad Gita:
1 am become death,
the shatter of worlds;
waiting that hour that ripens to their
doom.
But it was real—oh so painfully real!
No sacrifice was too great, no tear-gassing
too caustic, no club too blunt to stem the
flood-tide of conscience flowing onto the
sterile sands of battle. To be sure it was de
rigueur to some, but to many it was a spon-
taneous AT-ONE-MENT for the sins of a
government gone mad—an outpouring of
burning tears for our conscripted brother sone
to war—an apprehension that the house of
state dividing against itself was about tofall.

marshalling silent prayer vigils with one hope

our longings brought men to men, women to
‘women, and all together in the cause wedeemed
just. Never can that memory be lost—the
catharsis or orgasmic ecstasy; man, woman,
melting together on a fertile hillside stealing a
precious moment for a tribute to each other's
sacred mystery, gazing below toward the plain
of the battle just waged.
The book has finally been closed on that
nightmarish episode of the American heritage
and may we etch in gold “Rest in Peace.”
How antithetical is the mood of the univer-

ysms which fused our hearts and minds with
singularity or purpose are the economic con-
cems of today’s contracted production which
sacrifice unity on thealtar of agod called com-

manifestation of a deeper truth—that any
thesis has within itself the seeds of its an-

probability be that the current atomization of

due course, to the child of its own excesses. In

There has been much yelling and screaming
lately about secrecy in government. Most
recently this attack has focused on the C.1.A.
and the Army for the research that they con-
ducted with LSD and other hallucinogens. i
has taken more than twenty years for this par-
ticular research to come to the public's atten-
tion, It is fortunate for the continued existen
of the republic that people in increasingly
large numbers are finally making angry noises;
it is unfortunate that most people do no
recognize the underlying cause of (his un-
tenable government secrecy
The problem lies with the inability of
politicians to sce themselves for what they
really are: public servants. Politicians are
forever having trouble with the same basic
question of who lives upstairs and who lives
downstairs, There are, of course, exceptions 10
every rule, Truman considered the move from
the White House back to Independence a
promotion, a view | seriously doubt Nixon
took when he moved back to San Clemente
and reneged on his promise to give it away. If
politicians could see straight, and recognize
the fact that public servant means exactly
what it says, they would finally be forced to
give up the completely illogical defense for
secrecy that has served so many governments
so well: embarrassment.
No one would stand fora butler who refuses
to explain why hedidn'tanswer the door when
hhe was supposed to on the grounds that such
an answer would embarrass him, Yet, our
servants are telling us precisely that all the
time, The principal argument of the govern-
by Gordon Karp
ment in the Pentagon Papers case was that the
release of the documents would cause em-
harrassment to the government (translation
the administration.)
More recently, Nixon's lawyers argued, re
the disposition of the tapes, that they not be
made available for commercial release on the
rounds that such release might result in ex-
ploitation which could embarrass the ex-
President, Such are the politician's perverted
priorities with respect to the public’ right to
Know any small part of justwhat their servants
are up to, The obvious answer is that the ser-
vants should not be permitted to do anything
that is embarrassing, unless they choose to live
with the consequences. The shield behind
which these servants wish to hide is illogical
and therefore deserves no place in American
or any other kind of politics
‘A politician works for his constituency ina
way that bears no basic distinction from any
“other type of employer-employee relationship.
Since he works in their interest, his actions are
the subject of whatever scrutiny they deem
necessary. The politician who a people hire to
carry out their government business for them
should never allow himself to become con-
fused. The people live upstairs, the politicians
live downstairs .
Mr. Nixon deserves everyone's con
gratulations for being allowed to move back
upstairs well ahead of the usual servant's
schedule, Let it be a reminder to future ser~
ants, that the people are still in control, even
if it doesn’t always look that way.
There once was a school, named
SUNPA...
That dressed up as nice as
petunias. . .
The college sought fame. . .
(The students were tame)
But the parents don’t know that
they're serewin’ galt!!!
The annual clean-up for Community-University Day is, by this time, all finished.
Tomorrow come the parents and community to the school, and they'll go home
thinking that SUNYA is exciting, active and architecturally beautiful.
If they come back next month, however, they'll see the university in a more realistic
state and be disappointed. Things will be active, but not like on C-U day, Some
flourescent lights will be out and most walls will exhibit some dirt. It will still be
exciting but Wally Balloon won't be talking to children on the podium. Instead,
possibly, a student will finally grasp Descartes in a corner of the library.
President Fields has cited university involvement in the community asa goal of his
administration, Community-University Day can be an important part of encouraging
better relationships, True involvement, however, is continuous and honest. The
university should be kept in good condition at all times, and for the most partitis. But
no one is fooled by the paint jobs and cleaning that goes on before C-U day Sono one is
impressed.
Whoever ordered the well-timed refurbishing has missed the point of community
involvement, The time spent on that work would better be spent on long-term
investments that would bring SUNYA and the community closer together.
The subtle hypocrisy of C-U day is a common topic within the university, and that
discussion will produce far more damage to our school than the improved whitewash
image will add respect. The credibility of theadministration isat stake. If they continue
to create an artificial environment for C-U day, they will continue to encounter on
campus gross apathy and cynicism towards the concept of community involvement.
The adminstration must become honest with the community before there can be trust
between SUNYA and Albany County. Only then will the rest of the university have
ood reason to believe the administration is sincereabout increased contact between
the school and the local area.

~ Dilemma
by Maria Buceiferro
To shave, or not to shave—that is the ques-
tion, Whether'tis nobler ina woman's mindto
suffer the slings and arrows of an outrageous
razor, or to bear legs that resemble her Uncle
Frank's, is a topic | pursued in the Campus
Center ladies’ room Wednesday morning.
I didn’t beat around the bush.“Do you
shave your legs and why?" I asked women as
they reached for a towel, put on mascara,
waited in line for a john.
‘Laurie, looking in the mirrorasshe brushed
her dark hair, replied: “Sometimes. In winter |
don’t, in summer I do. It depends. I hate to, |
really do. But I get pestered by the people I'm
going out with. Sometimes I'm strong and say
‘tough shit. *
‘While there's social pressure against hairy
legs, there's some pressure for them, too. With
‘a time-out in our conversation to relieve
herself, Patricia responded, “I went three
years without shaving, | started shaving this
summer—I decided it was more important for
ne to feel comfortable; | was uncomfortable
with hair on my legs. 1 feel no more pressure
about it as a feminist issue.”
“The question proved a hairy one to some,
With a blush and a giggle, Jane confessed, “!
don't shave my legs. Now everyone in the
bathroom knows!" Laurie interjected "You're
‘as red as Lwas!" toa friend's reply, “Idon't like
the look of hairy legs.
‘Some were emphatic on that point:
“Hairy legs look grotesque.”
“Hairy legs look disgusting 0 ‘One
hated hairy anythings on anybody: “I don't
like body hair, except on the head. Men
should shave their legs, too—hairy legs aren't
ay ing.”
‘With an eye foraneyeand a leg {or aleg, the
anti-shavers were emphatic, too:
“if men don't shave their legs, I don’t see
why I have to.”
“1 think it’s stupid.” i
“{ don’t see why I should; Idon’t as.a kind of,
protest.” Only one non-shaver liked her hairy
legs for their hair: “It's warmer. I-have light
-—I like the way it looks.” None thought
like the Europeans that hairy legs are sexy,
though one thought of the Europeans: “In Eu-
rope, | think the standards are
changing...before, only the prostitutes shaved
their legs.’
None of the leg shavers sounded like
prostitutes, but some sounded like potential
werewolves
“I'm very, very hairy.”
“1 look like a birch tree if I don't shave my
legs; I'm covered with hair,..1 can braid it
around February.”
‘One non-shaver solved her hairy dilerina a

ALBANY STUDENT PRESS SEPTEMBER 2
by Marla Abrams
According to Kathy Maloney,
Athletics Advisory Board (AAB)
Chairperson, “Title IX is being
adhered to bythe AAB, although the
author of the bill did not wish it used
in the manner that the Federal
government enforces it.”
Title IX of the Education
Amendments of 1972:states that “no
person may be subjected to dis-
crimination based on scx in any
scholastic, intercollegiate, club or in-
tramural athletics Offered by a
recipient of federal education aid.”
Dave Coyne, Central Council
Chairperson, feels that the
“vagueness of Title 1X * allows for
misinterpretation of the law and
possible discrimination, For exam-
ple, he states that students who excel
in football “are admitted under the
Special Students Admissions
Program, but this really only applies
to males.” He also says that “the
overall increase in men's athletic
budget fi 1974-1975 was ap-
proximately 16 percent as compared
to .6 percent for women.”
According to Athletics Director
Joe Garcia, “Its impossible to com-
pare the women’s budget to the
men's due to differences in the
number of teams and participation.
“Presently, there are eleven men's
varsity teams and nine junior varsity
teams, while the women have six var-
sity teams and one junior varsity
team.” Mr, Garcia cites the 1975
budget as about $149,558, with
$124,168 for men’s sports and $25,-
Women's intercollegiate sports at SUNYA: Will they catch up to the men?
390 for women's sports, However, he
adds that “a lot of the money in the
men’s budget is also applicable to
women’s sports.”
Garcia explains that “when the
AAB was formed around 1952, the
people involved in the bourd were a
far-sighted group who tried to
develop a co-educational athletic
program. They set up criteria (or for-
ming teams which apply equally to
both sexes.”
“the AAB does not deny any
sport to come under AAB,
Maloney, who is also 3

years, a sports club can petition to
become a varsity or junior varsity
team, It doesn't work on a male of
female basis.”
Several members of the AB who
were interviewed agree tht the “lack
of womens participation” is the
feason for what may be considered
“unequal” funding of men’s and
women’s sports.
Leslie Hour, women’s coordinator
on the AAB states that “we are
following the guidelines of Title IX,
but we can’t do anything untess the
students comeandask forthe sport.”
the lack of women’s participation is
due to “apathy of the student body
New York City Loses Use Of Pension Aid;
Default On Municipal Debts Draws Near
ALBANY,N.Y.(AP) Themandated
use of public-employee pension
funds to stave off default by New
York City was ruled un-
constitutional Monday by the state’s
highest court, raising thedanger that
the city could collapse ina matter of
weeks. The 6-1 decision by the Court
of Appeals struck down legislation
requiring the use of $725 million in
pension funds as part of a $2.3
billion en-ergency financing plan to
keep the city from default through
November.
The decision did not ban the use of
the funds if state Comptroller
Arthur Levitt and other trustees of
the pension moniesdecide voluntari-
ly, in their discretion, to use them.
But it said the legislature could not
require them to do so. And Levitt
previously had balked at investing
pension money in borrowings of the
city or Municipal Assistance Corp.
without such a legislative mandate.
If the pension funds are not used,
the rest of the financing plan will
provide only enough funds to stave
off default through mid or late Oc-
tober, according 10 estimates by
MAC.
The court ruling also may in-
directly threaten other parts of the
plan, particularly the efforts of the
state to borrow on behalf of the
city. The coun''s interpretation of the
state's constitution of the state's con-
stitution is final and cannot be
appealed.
Gov. Hugh Carey issued a terse
statement declaring that the court
ruling *has clearly complicated our
problem" But he pledged to
all possible alternatives and proce
with thejob of saving New York City
from default.”
The state Civil Service Employees
Association and the Police Con-
ference of New York had brought
suit arguing that the legislation
violated the constitutional guarantee
that the pension rights of public
emplyes not be impaired. Their suit
was aimed directly only at the $125
million designated from their
members’ pension funds, but the
court threw out the entire section,
which mandated $600 million in
other investments.
Chief Judge Charles Breitel, in the
majority opinion, acknowleged the
“obviously compelling and urgent
stringency with which the city and
state are faced.”
But the court held that to strip the
state comptroller “of his personal
responsibility and commitment to
his oath of office, is to remove a
safeguard integral to the scheme of
maintaining the security of the
sources of benefits for over a half
century.” “The legislature is
powerless in the face of the con-
stitutional non-impairment clause to
mandate that he (the comptroller)
mindlessly invest in whatever
securities they direct, good, in-
different, or bad,” Breitel continued,

$600 million mandated by haw, but

expressed fear that the adverse psy-
chological impact of the niling
would not only make the trustees of
those other pension funds reluctant
to make voluntary use of thei
monies, but also make it harder for
the state to borrow the $750 million

Ms. Hoar feels that the problem
also stems from “a lack of adequate
coverage in the ASP.” This attitude
is shared by Ellen Deutschman,
member of the Coulition for

“if women were made
aware of the sports je

money for women's athletics would
“generate a greater degree of par-
ticipation.”
Ms, Maloney, however, states that
“men's athletics funds should not be
cut to increase the women's budget
since the smaller number of women
participants would not justify totally
equal funding.” She adds. that
“H.E,W. reviewed AAB's policy and
felt that it fully conformed to the es-
tablished guidelines of Title 1X,"
Use Excess Money
Ms, Deutschman feels that, ay a
solution to the problem of additional
funding for women, “Central Couns
cil should take the money they an-

the term to provide for a women's
sports program, if the women 80
desire, instead of spending that
money on beer, Otherwise, this
money should be available to

Alliance, Fuerza Latina and EOP-
