‘The American drama had its
rebirth Saturday as Doc Sauers un-
veiled his newest production at Un-
iversity. Gym. The play is called
“Forty-Two Seconds and Coun-
ting’.
Sauers, an award-winning direc-
tor, has written his finest script to
date with this entry. The action
revolves around the same group of
actors that he has used in previous
works. The collective performances
of the actors is impressive but i
dividual credits are forthcoming.
The play is divided into two acts

Engineers Leash
by Mike Piekarski
Up against what probably was
their stiffest competition of the year,
the Albany State junior varsity
basketball team went down to their
second defeat of the campaign,
Saturday night/at the hands of the
R,P.L, Engineers, 65-56 in front of @
disappointed home crowd,
‘The loss came right on the heels of
the Pups’ 93-27 victory over Utica
earlier in theweek,und left their log
at 8 wint-2 losses,
Varsity Coach “Doc” Sauers, who
has been keeping an eye on the Pups,
remarked that they have been play-
ing against relatively weaker teams
80 far, but “now that they're up
against the strong teams, they're gel-
ting a true tes
Probably the biggest single reason
for the loss was the Pups’ shooting,
or rather, lack of it. A 9 for 35 first
half was matched by a 12/46 second
half of shooting for « horrendous
26% norm. The Engineers,
meanwhile, had no such problems as
they connected on 26 of 57 for a
respectable 46%,
The Pups did have their chances,
especially in the second half when
they came close a few times, But
every surge was thwarted by an
Engineer retaliation in the form of »
quick basket or two, The Pups led
only very early in the contest—the
last tiine at 9-7—and after that, were
forced to play catch-up basketball
the remainder of the evening.
Coach, Lewis started Greg John-
son at guard in place of Steve Pass,
probably owing to Johnson's fine
play over the last few games, Ray
Gay, as usual, started at the other
guard slot with Verdejo, Walton,
and Brown up front,
Gay opened the scoring with a 20-
foot jumper from the key which was
answered by a Chris Esch driving
layup for a 2-2 tie. Two free throws
by Gay at 2:50 put the Pups up
before falling behind 5-4 a minute
later, The reason for the low score at
this point was due to the excellent
defensive play of both squads as they
forced the opposition to work for
every shot in a patterned offense,
Neither team was able to fast break,
Pups lead early
With 14 minutes left in the first
half, Gay found Verdejo underneath
~for a twisting layup to tie the score at
7-7. Steve Pass, now in for Johnson,
then made a beautiful steal at mid-
court und converted the driving
layup for a 9-7 Albany lead; the last
time the Pups would be in the
driver's seat the rest of the game.
‘Ten consecutive points engineered
by the Engineers put R.P.I.on top to
say as they opened up a 17-9advan-
tage, Mike Chapman, with two
offensive rebounds and buckets and
Bill Chapman with a long-range
swish, did most of the damage as
R.P.I. seemed 10 be continually get-
ting position underneath,
Meanwhile, the Pups were having
their problems in the personal foul
department. Verdejo picked up, his
shoots 3-10 for only eight points.
The electrifying performance by
Johnson is sayed for the climax of
the play. .
Rich Kapner was injured onstage
durin ‘the first act. His part
playea by the understudy as he w
tunable to continue,
Act Two began with little change
for the Danes. The opposing team
(named Ithaca, presumably signifi-
cant of Grecian tradition) builds a
64-44 lead with 11:55 remaining on
the omnipotent score clock high
above the stage,
‘The action is heightened at this
point as the home squad rallies for a
25-14 exchange in the span of eight
minutes, The Ithaca lead is nine
points with 3:25 left in the second
act, During the Dane spurt, there are
memorable performances by Kevin
Keane and Mike Suprunowicz, They
six and Seven points respectively.
Sauers has effectively set the at-
mosphere for the remaining
moments, The audience however,
becomes restless (as does this un-
suspecting witness), The spectators
came tonigh’ to watch a comedy, not
a tragedy, the aura of doom lies over
the arena as the Greck opponents
check the Dane’ comeback, With
forty-two seconds remaining, the
score is 86-77, the Hellenic forces
safely ahead, It is now that Sauers
unteashes his trump card—Ed John-
son.
Ed Johnson is the star in Sauers’
cast for the premier performance of
this play. This is only Ed's second
year as part of Sauers’ company but
he steals the show each time he is
called upon.
Sauers carefully unleashed his
Pups
third foul with about eight minutes
left in the half and saw limited play-
ing time as did Gay who was also
slapped with three before halftime,
An Eric Walton offensive rebound
and basket closed the gap to four at
19-15 and two Brown free throws cut
it to 24-21 alittle later, before R.P..
scored seven of the last ten to lead
31-24 at the half,
The second half opened with a
Johnson to Walton backdoor layup
to make it a five-point game, But a
succeeding 8-2 burst and the
Engineers led by 11 with Lewis fore~
ed to call a time out to regroup his
team. He must have told them
something because the Pups then hit
eight in a row! Verdejo hit two free
throws, Pass hit a 20-footer, Walton
connected on a tap-in, and Johnson
snared a layup and now the score
was 39-36 with 14:21 remaining.
But that was the last gasp for
Lewis’ hoopsters as R.P.I., with
Doug Rykhus leading the way, went
‘on a 9-1 spree and virtually iced the
game. With Verdejo fouling out at
10:20, and the Pups’ shooting ice
cold, the differential was too much
to overcome. Johnson gave the
crowd a little excitement down the
stretch ashe popped a couple in from
outside but it was not enough this
time,
Rykhus finished as high scorer
with 16, while only Johnson with 12
(cight in the second half) and Walton
with 11 (seven in the second) hit dou-
ble figures for the Pups,
finale. Gary Trevitt hits a shot to br-
ing the Danes to within seven with
thirty-four seconds left. A quick
travelling violation gives the ball
back to the Danes.
Ed Johnson takes the ball and
drives past Achilles and Hector to
lay the ball safely into the basket. A
foul is added on and the Danes trail
86-82 with nineteen precious seconds
remaining.
Johnson, the protagonist, com-
mits a back court foul and the free
throws raise the Ithaca lead to six,
However, the ball is returned to
Johnson who hits short jumper
with nine seconds left. Now Sauers
can taunt his audience ashesees fit.
Ithaca isunable to find an opening
on the inbounds pass so they call
time out with a scant five seconds left
on the clock
Doc Sauers now gives the
audience a startling soliloquy in
which Ed Johnson asks everyone to
believe, Ithaca’s pass is thrown and a
whistle is blown, “Offensive foul
thirty-fiveblueis the call, This line
will bécomea classic for theatergoers
everywhere
The clock reads four seconds, the
players claiming it should be five
because of non-possession. In the
fracas, we see Mike Suprunowicz at
the foul line. Mike hits two perfect
charity attempts to bring the score to
88-86, again only four seconds on the
clock.
Ithaca again has trouble with the
pass and is called for travelling with
three seconds remaining. The climax
of Sauers’ instant classic script is
about to materialize.
‘The Danes line four warriors in
front of Kevin Keane who is assigned
the task of mobilizing the final shot
Keane finds an opening for the pass
and guides the ball to Ed Johnson.
The superstar stops at the foul-tine,
jumps, and releases the ball with a
perfect arc toward the basket. The
ball slowly begins its descent as the
clock shows one second. The ball
goes through the basket, Johnson
leaps into the air, and the buzzer
sounds
The second act comes to a close
with the teams tied at 88-88, The
audience, that began to doubt this
‘outcome just minutes before, arc ex-
uberant. They anxiously call for the
conclusion of the drama,
The epilogue begins as both teams
trade baskets. Then the star of the
performance leads a Dane surge of
twelve points, Who else but Ed
Johnson would have this part in the
play? Sauers has a superb talent in
Johnson and the script emphasizes
the young guard,
The final score in this story is 111-
94. Mike Suprunowicz tallied 26
followed by Johnson and Morphis
with 21, and Trevitt with 18,
Sauers’ brought delight to the
audience that ventured to watch his
ry effort. Due to the
spontaneous nature of the story, itis
doubtful that Sauers will offer a
return showing. Instead, he brings
another untried script to the gym on
Tuesday. The author tells us that it
involves his acting company in
search of conquest against a foe
named Geneseo. The performance
begins at 8:30, | recommend that you

replied: “lean foresee no way forthe

to financial contributions that
dent Association has made to the
athletic program, Garcia said, “they
have been just tremendous as far as
funding is concerned, and I feel
we've given them back a darn good
investment.”
This issue of the extent to which
the student body should be expected
to fund competitive athletics was
raised in a different form by David
Coyne. AU a recent Central Council
Meeting, Coyne introduced a bill
that, had it been passed, would have
lowered the food allowance for
athletes on away trips from eight
dollars to five dollars per day, This
would have put their fo

present, they receive only five dollars

was defeated 8-10-6, besides making
the situation more equitable, would
have involved a savings of $7,000 per

New Structures
by Doug Horwitz
In front of a large Schenectady
Freedom Forum audience last Mon-
day night, the renowned psy-
chotherapist, Dr. Rollo May, spoke
of the necessity for individuals to
reexamine the “spiritual foundations
of our society" which he claimed are
in desperate need of change.
Recovering from the flu, May
hoarsely remarked, *We now are at
the point where weare in a period of
feformation.* Continuing, he stress-
ed that it is our responsibility to dis-
cover new structures upon which to
base our society and his, he added,
doesn't mean patching up the
problems of our present system.
In order for man to build a better
social structure, Dr. May, who holds
«4 Ph.D in clinical psychology, insists
that we have courage. May stressed
that courage is essential for it gives
man the impetus “to move ahead in
spite of our despair”, adding that it
“gives ‘reality to our virtues and
values.”
Dr. May, the author of several
best-sellers, said that our
deteriorating society can not be
rebuilt through rational and con-
scious thought alone. According to
the practicing psychotherapist, in
order to establish a new societal
framework, man will have to use his
creative abilities,
May believes that creativity is
brought forth when man deals with
the notion of death, his inevitable
end. “We must struggle to face
death,” May remarked, and as a
result we “try to create something
that will live beyond us," Thus, May
continued, “Creativity is a yearning
for immortality.” When we do final-
ly create something that will provide

than any potential candidate except Alabama Gov. George C. Wallace. {he
‘62-year-old senator, who has been runningever since he flopped in his party's

ait Boston University, is designed to
follow up the rally held in th
on De iber 14 and the Tei
the night before. The conference has
among its goal publicizing the con-
tinuing threat (o the black communi-
ty of Boston and to plan an on-going
defense of that community. The con-
ference also hopes to enable those
who participate in it to begin or
further the fight against racism and
segregation in their own schools and

mittee hopes to be receiving more
donations from its endorsers which
include Dr. Frank Pogue, African

“Lwalked in and I was really shak-
~ ing. I mean it; 1 was so nervous that
my palms were sweating and I could
hardly talk.”
This was how Tom Castellano, a
sophomore at S.U.N.Y. at Albany,
described his anxiety concerning his
first interview for the position of
Resident Assistant on State Quad.
Castellano, like many of the ap-
proximately five hundred
sophomores and juniors competing
for the select “R.A.” post, blamed his
fears on the subjective interviews
which characterize the application
procedure.
This process, initiated afteraman-
datory campus-wide interest

Prospective R.A.'s, terminated the
following Srping. In early March,
each applicant receives either a fat
Jetter, signifying acceptance, or athin
note of refusal. During the four in-
tervening months, the applicants.
the present R.A.'s, and the Quad
Directors, undergo. rigorous series
of individual quad meetings and in-
terviews leading to the R.A. selec-
tion.
Besides receiving written
evaluations from his current R.A. as
Well as from his Residence Hall
Director, each applicant must attend
three, hour-long individual inter-
Views. The first, an attempted infor-
mal conversation between two
students and the applicant, is an
endeavor to get to know the can-
didate and discern his ideas, f

interview, a meeting between a staff
director, a current R.A., and the
applicant in which each candidate
chooses his preferred topic and set-
ling. Finally, a director and can-
didate meet fora general evaluation
of the process and for adiscussion of
the student's chance of securing the
job.
By last week, only the i
views had been completed, but both
the applicants and the staff members
had already developed and
crystallized their opinions of the
selection process. “If you havea bad

with an interviewer, you might spoil

Though complaints mirroring
these are profuse, hundreds of
students continue to undergo the
Process in the hope they will obtain
the job. The post, designed as a
linkage between students and thead-
ministration, consists of dealing with
student dormitory problems as well
as working with the professional
fesidence staff. These duties. often
tedious, clerical matters, entail long
hours manning a desk or fi
forms, But both current R.A.’s and
Prospective ones still find the job at-
tractive and desirable,
Remuneration for R.A.'s consists
of a free single room in a dormitory
and free local phone service. A token
stipend is also frequently given but
this is never guaranteed. This salary,
far fess than what a student would
receive for working similar hours at
a part-time job, is minimal. “The
R.A.’ are grossly underpaid,” Judy
Condo, Quad Coordinator for State
Quad, affirmed. “But the job
remains quite popular.”
Ms. Condo and Sally Borner, a
Resident Director, listed several at-
tributes of the post. “Because of in-
Nation, many studentsare paying for
school by themselves and they often
prefer having a free room to working
tan off-campus job,” Condo stated
“And by te time a student isa junior
or a senior and is involved with

Borner suggested.
Candidates agreed that the free,

The disposal of his bill proposing a
decrease in food allowance for
athletes coincided almost exactly
with the filing of a petition for his
removal from Council. This petition,
presented to Fidler by Coun-
cilmembers Gary Bennett and Gary
Cooke, both AAB representatives,
questioned his legal right to sit on
Council now that he is living off-
campus.
Coyne, who moved off campus
over intersession, resigned from
Council several weeks ago, pending
replacement. He feels that, legally
their position is justified. However,
what hedoes not fee! is justified isthe
fact that it took a political activity on
his part to arouse their interest in the
legality of his sitting on Council
think they were right in removing
‘me, but I think that their motivation
was wrong”.
Coyne does not seem to enjoy a
harmonious relationship with those
members of Central Council who are
connected with AAB. Councilman
Lew Barr,a former member of AAB,
expressed his feelings about Coyne
in thismanner, “I'vebeen on Council
for three years, and Dave hasalmost
an obsession against athletics.”
Barr called Coyne's bill
“unreasonable” and insisted instead
that the meal allottment for athletes
should be raised. The fact that this
would make the amount even more
disproportionate did not seem to be
a valid issue to Barr, who explained
that “it's a question of simple
physics. You can’t run on an empty
tank, and athletes obviously burn up
‘alot more than youand {do in a nor-
mal day"
Not everyone follows that same
line of reasoning. Finance Com-
mittee Chairperson Ken Wax, com-
menting on the same issue, said
“We're all students and we alleat the
same,” adding, “they're not special
people”. In his view, five dollars per
day is sufficient for anyone. When
the question of increasing the
athletic food allowance was raised,
Wax scoffed, saying that our AB
budget is already ridiculous com:
pared to other schools,
Someone who does share Bas
overall view is AAB member Gary
Cooke, who said, referring to the
food allowances now given to other
students, “I'd like to see the allott-
ment remain the same.” He added
for these students to eat in other
school’s cafeterias. He did not,
however, feel that the eight dollars
now alloted to athletes was suf-
ficient, According to Cooke, “AAB
would rather see athletes...cat good
meals”
Interestingly enough, Varsity
basketball coach Doc Sauers and
Athletic Director Joe Garcia take a
somewhat different view. In. their
opinion, food allottments for
athletes should be equal (o that of
other students. Garcia maintains
hat, “ifthe students are representing
the University, the dollar should be
equal”, That is, provided that the
present allottment is raised.
More central than the caloric in-
take of athletes versus that of non-
athletes lie much more basic issues
concerning how much money the
Univeristy should expect students to
contribute to competitive athletics.

Dean for Student Affairs, claims
that the proportional amountofUn-

athletics is not predetermined by the
state. According to Bristow, “the
determination of how much state
funding is given to University
athletics is made in the context of the
total funds", He noted that, ul-
timately, the decision lies in the hand
of the individual school and is made
according to how important inter
collegiate athletics is to that par-
ticulat school, as opposed to how
much they are willing to cut back in
other areas.
However, school administration
officials are not the only ones faced
with decisionsconcerning how much
revenue should be allotted to com-
petitive athletics. The student body
must also make such a decision;
Should we,in the face of what Coyne
refers to as “the present fiscalcrisis”,

program, as Joe Garcia views it,
something that its many
students and facully members, as
well as bringing tremendous noto
ty to the University, and thereby
justified in the amount of funds it
receives from students?
It is not, by any means, an easily-
resolved issue, And, for now, it
remains to be seen whether Central
Council members will let that fact
prevent them from grappling with it
at a basic level.

"Second Field May be Key in Gloomy Job Market
by Beverly Heam
The job outlook for this year's
college graduates is “probably the
worst since World War II,” says the
January 20, 1975 issue of The
Chronicle of Higher Education. This
gloomy prediction was sounded at
the annual meeting of the Associ
tion of American Colleges, and
echoed later in interviews with
SUNYA's administrators, The
general consensus among some
leading U.S, educatorsis that in this
country's tight economic situation,
the minor or second field may be the
key.to finding a job after gradua-
tion.
Assistant Placement Directors
Gwen Simmons and Mary Ellen
Stewart of SUNYA’s Placement Of-
fice agreed with Terre! H. Bell, U.S,
Commissioner of Education, when
he said, “I feel that the coflege that
devotes itself totally and une-
quivocally to the liberal arts today i
just kidding itself...we in education
‘must recognize that it is our duty to
provide our students also. with
sitlable skills."
Both placement directors felt that,
with the exception of fields like
engineering, business education, ac-
counting, library education, and
nursing, “The job situation is very
bleak...it's as bad as [ve seen it in re
cent years.” “Private companies,
added Ms, Simmons, “are looking
for very narrowly-trained people at
this time,..seniors in computer
science, accounting...In education,
the trend iy toward more business
related subjects like industrial arts
offered in high schools...there is
return to interest in business and in
dustrial arts (by students) because
they are seeing that going to college
does not guarantee them a job at the
end of the line,"
Dr. Leonard Lapinski und Dr.
Rovert Gibson, University College,
SUNYA, pointed! out that the
forecast for jobs in the medical and
legal professions is only partially

school according to Lapinski, who’
bases his statement on a national
mean. Individual schools may differ.
Lapinski said that the scholastic
average needed to enter medical
school has increased over the years.
Now, some medical schools are put-
ting such restrictions as,"Don'tapp-
ly unless you have a minimun 3.45
grade point average,” on applicants.
Students must have a 3,45 grade

“Lately,” says Lapinski

and medical school as well. Good
students have to be turned away just
because of numbers.” (quotas) He
added that, “It's now a national
trend” to recruit more females into
medical schools, Beingadmittedto a
medical school, he notes, may de-
pend too on how previous SUNYA
graduates have fared at that school,
If many former SUNYA graduates
did poorly, the medical school may
be reluctant to accept future
graduates,
The teaching profession, like
medicine and law, is becoming more
difficult to enter. Dean for Student
Altairs, Neil C. Brown, who super-
Vises that Placement Office, suid that
SUNYA is “producing more
teachers than can be employed.
Sophomores should’ know. about
this—not to quit teaching but to
develop alternative career choices.
Not only are jobs hard to come by
these days~(ests qualifying students
for jobs are too. Governor Hugh
Carey announced on Wednesday,
January. 22, that the Pro!
Careers Tests (administere
students who have a Bachelor's
Degree) will not be given. According
Ms, Stewart of SUNYA’s Place-
ment Office, 3,100 SUNYA seniors
were planning to take those exams.
What does the economic crunch
do to the grades of students? Accor-
ding to De, Brown, “There has been
tan upxwingiin the academic averages
during the past three or four
semesters.” Students are becoming
more competitive becwuse they are
concerned about getting jobs or go-
ing on to graduate or professional
school when they leave SUNYA,
Uncertain Future
= John Tucker, Personal Counselor
from the Counseling Office, noticed
that students are becoming more
tense because of an uncertain future.
Counselors are not dealing with
larger numbers of students, but
students are demonstrating greater
anxiety than ever before, Tucker
thinks that students feel pressured to
do well in their undergraduate work
because they realize their future job
security will be tied to how well they
do in graduate or professional
school, and getting into graduate or
professional school depends on their
achievement at the undergraduate
level.
Just what can a student do besides
seream in desperate frustration? It
seems he must be willing to com-
promise, trusting in future content-
‘ment, instead of worrying about im-
mediate fulfillment
Increasingly, women are viewing
secretarialpositionsas interim jobs —
something they do to earn
money while becoming educated for
another type of work.
Often, students can dre upa
skill nequired earlier in their lives
even summer jobs provide an oppor-
tunity to begin something that may
develop into a career later on in life,
Career opportunities exist abroad
‘also, There are many jobs in the
fields of education and social ser-
viees.
Dean Brown encourages students
to undertake “two track education.”
“For a good many liberal arts ma-
jors, the second field makes the
difference,” he said. He encourages
second fields in urban planning or
goverment, for example, because
they will increase your chances of
employability,
Ham Sandwiches

| TKO for AAB -
In the midst of the budget crunch, organized athletics is taking it firmly on the chin,
In-San Francisco| the city’s board of education has abandoned intramural and in-
terscholastic sports in an effort to achieve a precarious balance of its funds. Asi ap-
parent from the outburst following that decision, it isnot ‘a popular one. Mayor Alioto
has promised to find the funds to reinstate the athletic Programs, while high school
students threaten a general boycott of classes if the funds are not found.
The situation with'respect to intercollegiate athletics in New York State is complex
and Albany State. reflects that complexity in its own confusing style. While Central
Council defeated a proposal that would effectively reduce funding to the enormous
Athletic Advisory Board, (the group which officially controls varsity sports on t!
campus), a SASU resolution has called on all SUNY campuses to reduce its level of
funding to varsity sports, and to withdraw from the NCAA until that national
organization permits SUNY to put its athletics under student control. Presently,
NCAA rules require that the University control athletics, while student tax pays the
overwhelming share of varsity sports funds,
The AAB has gone unquestioned for years, and the attempt by Council members like
Dave Coyne to put the AAB under wary student scrutiny is long overdue, The vitality
of varsity sports to a university community, especially to one as large as Albany's
however, is yet more important than the need to bring the giant under some sort of
restriction. Certainly the SASU answer to cut back or drop out of the NCAA solves
nothing, A pull-out removes all the remaining options which SUNY might have, and
thus we lose all force in bargaining for our goal. Cutting back on athletics merely ski
the issue and delays an inevitable conflict between those who feel the university is solely
for academics and those who associate sports with qmotions such as school spirit and
self motivation.
Organized athletics, both on the intramural and intercollegiate levels, are far too
important to the smooth running of a college campus to allow it to suffer an_ ill-
conceived plan to return it to the control of the students who pay for it.
Playing With Numbers
Faculty-Student Association is a multi-million dollar corporation and as such is a
bit complicated fora group of students, professors, and administrators to analyze. Yet,
this is exactly what such a group, the FSA Board of Directors, is going to have to do,
FSA Director E. Norbert Zahm is in the unique position of being the only person to
have the training and capacity to understand a six million dollar corporation budget.
Of course there are auditors, and the Directors are not a bunch of bumbling idiots.
But the point is that they'may not know the right questions to ask Zahm, and no matter
how well-meaning Zahm is he can’t think of everything.
Everyone knows that food prices are up, and it does indeed seem reasonable that
FSA could be in trouble because of them. How much of a Board increase should there
be? Sugar has gone up 321% in the past year but we assume Zahm won't suggest
students pay $1000 a semester for a full board plan. Some foods prices go down, but a
decrease in board rates appears unthinkable.
‘We suggest that we make as much money as possible from the other operations of
FSA, and keep the board rise to a minimum. We've heard figures as high as ten percent,
and we know that's much too high. The Board of Directors would be missing the point
of our University: higher public education that is accessible to all income brackets,
Errata
It was incorrectly reported in last Tuesday's edition that the new FSA check cashing policy
would ban payroll checks from the items negotiable at the window. The new policy will only ban
second party personal checks, not state, FSA, or company payroll checks, In addition, the
policy begins on February fourteenth, rather than on the fourth as was originally reported

Behavior Modification Flourishes
secant
WASHINGTON—Those who saw Stanley
Kubrick's Clockwork Orange will not soon
forget the climactic scene of that brilliant,
violent movie portrayal of the future.
“hero,” gang leader and repeated rapist,
has had his behavior modified by a new
government program. He is led on stage in
front of leading government officials—they
‘want to sce how well their money has been
spent. ‘Then a young girl comes out and
removes her clothes. He rushes to her, his
thoughts obvious. But then the behavior
modification takes over. His face contorts
with pain and nausea, his body portrays
extreme agony. The attack stops, the girt
leaves, and the “hero” returns to his normal,
healthy, happy self.
Was this merely a far-out, fictional account
of how some 1984 society may solve its crime
problems? Perhaps,
But in fowa, under a study financed by the
federal government, the drug apormorphine
has been used as punishment for prisoners
guilty of minor offenses such as smoking.
Apormorphine causes uncontrollable
vomiting.
In California, state mental hospitals have
discouraged assaults and suicide by using
anectine, a drug which causes respiratory
seizure and muscular paralysis. Anectine is
derived from curare, the South American
arrow-tip poison, Dr. Arthur Nugent,
administrator of an ancctine program,
describes its effects as “sensations of
suffocation and drowning as though on the
brink of death.” Dr. Nugent recently told a
San Francisco Chronicle interviewer, “I
‘wouldn't have one treatment myself for the

everybody's upset aver this,”
In use throughout our nation’s state and
federal pritons is the drug proxlixin, E.R.

possible side effects as “nausea, loss of

enough to cause fatal cardiac arrest, and

These and hundreds of other government
inspired behavior modification prograts
have come to light with the recent publication
of a three-year study by the Senate Judicisr
Subcommittee on Constitutional Rights
In the preface, Subcommittee Chairman
Sen. Sam J. Ervin, Jr. (D-N.C.) warns “there
is a real question whether the government
should be involved at all in programs that
potentially pose substuntial threats to owt
basic freedoms...The question becomes sor
acute when these programs are conducted,
they are today, in the absence of strict
controls,”
The programs to which Ervin refers are 1!

Many provoke images of Nazi Germany atid
Aldous Huxley's Brave New World. An lit W
program for treatment of youthful drug
offenders prompted a high school guidance

won't speak to anyone-outside of their own
group... (and they) seem to have an informing
system...they run in to use the telephone daily
to report against each other...”
Senator Ervin’s report makes no specilic
recommendations. It has been forwarded to
the National Commission for the Protection
of Human Subjects of Biomedical and
Behavioral Experimentation. The
Commission has authority merely to “study”
abuses of subjects’ constitutional rights
Neither it nor Congress apparently plans any
action in the foreseeable future, Thus, there
seems little likelihood of a change in Ervin’s

the rustic charm
of vermont skiing
by Lo Shapiro
itsfield is small ski village located in
Vermont, nestled in a vast snow bow! within a
ten mile radius of three skiing areas:
Sugarbush, Mad River Glen, and Glen Elen.
From the endless branching Waitsfield roads,
one can catch a glimpse of the skiing terrain
which is sheltered by the overflowing forest.
Small shoppingareas, restaurants, lodges, and
pubs, as well as at host of night entertainment
contribute to the superbly comfartable rustic
atmosphere. The cabin which my group of
friends and 1 occupied provided everything
imaginable for our convenience, that is, when
certain members of the group could find their
way back

separate ears for the hilly of Vermont, in early
January, where picturesque mixes of forest

dozen times, for the turns indicated on the
map were directing us to the wrong side of the
road, A Mr. Fine was responsible partially for
the directions. yet upon our arrival at the
cabin, we found that he had already been
dismembered by other group travellers.
We were most honored during this snow
vacation to have in our midst, personage of
infamous stature, a Duke. The Duke's eal

and never failed to give the wrong

hour snoozeand having been asked which wa
the driver should turn, he austerely replies
“Left.” OF course. the party was to become
hopelessly lost, Also among the entourage of
skiers were three rough speaking, “ostidious”
characters, knawa as the Dakotas, who
enjoyed a hearty game of blood poker, and
were moved to moments of timidity at the
telling of bedtime stories. The majority of the
peuple in the group were beginning skiers,
thoughfean-Claude was an expert with twelve
years of experience.
While others went drinking the night of our
arrival, a buddy and 1 went for a brisk walk
along the bouncy access rouds and trails that
thread through the spruce and hardwood,
posing an isolated charm. 1 was still reflecting,
upon the crystal clear sky of the night before
while we were loading our gear the next
morning, in the hope of reaching Glen Elen
carly enough to enjoy a full day of skiing.
Upon our arrival at the ski area, the
beginners’ hill became a plethora of virgins on
the slopes. All beginning skies

‘At the end of an exhilarating day of
propelling ourselves down the slopes and
turning our skis in the valleys between the
moguls, attempting to maintain its track while
in the bumps, we returned to the
cabin's crackling fire for warmth, What
ensued was not only a game of the ancient
“uwister.” which was complicated when the
spinner made the additions of various areas of
the body, but also a word game utilizing the
words: ZOOM . SCHWARTZ, FIGLIANO

impossible to “zoom” but that a
“zoom” could follow in most cases. Then came
the big poker game, Jean-Claude supplied the
chips while one of the Dakotas, Wets, shuffled
the cards and dealt ‘em around the table. Each
player maintained his own, but as the hours
passed on, there was a detectable intense
‘allempt on the part of each player to lead the
hands. Due to the analytical subtlety of a few
players during the course of the evening, men
steadily sifted from the game, Intermittently
the Duke improvised with raw jokes and
perverted behaviorisms. He was soon to be
one of the final two players in the big game,
which he brought toa conclusion by quipping,
“Let's quit, cause we'll just be taking from each
other, and | want to go to sleep.” Thus, the
Duke came out ahead with over six bills, and
Jean-Claude with at least two, piltherating
with a head embossed with scotch, During
other moments, we played card games, ping-
pong, manual field hockey, battleships, as well
as a great deal of pocket pool.

experience. I watched him as he took off and
absorbed the irregular terrain by allowing his
body to compress on the crest oF top o

The ancient Greeks often placed their sanctuaries and temples in locations *
of spectacular scenic beauty. The Sanctuary of Apollo at Delphi, the Temple
of Aphaea‘on Aegina, and the Temple of Poscidon at Cape Sunium will serve
‘4s examples, The latter stands on a rocky promontory 197 feet above the sea,
4 conspicuous landmark serving the convenience of mariners. It was built,
shortly after 450 B.C., in the Doric order and featured a peristyle of 34 (6x13)
fluted columns, of which fewer than half are now standing, It found a place
‘hot only in the literature of ancient Greece itself but also in that of 18th and
19th century England.
Marine Dictionary
William Falconer, a native of Edinburgh, was both a poet and a sailor. He
survived shipwreck twice, once in 1760 in the British Channel, and once in
1762 at Cape Colonna, by which name Cape Sunium was then known, On the
latter occasion he was one of only three survivors. In 1769 Falconer lost his
life when his ship saflk on a voyage to East India. Just before his last voyage
he published his famous Marine Dictionary. His literary output also includes
at number of poems, the most ifmportant of which is “The Shipwreck.” Its the
length of a smatt epic and hag been catled by some “one of the finest poems in
the English language.” We sire indebted for it directly to the tragedy of the
poet's second shipwreck at Cape Sunium. Understandably Falconer
describes Sunium not as beautiful but as sinister and threatening:
But now Athenian mountains they desery,
and o'er the surge Colonna frowns on high.
Where marble columns, long by time defac'd,
Moss cover'd on the lofty cape are plac’d,
The seamen now in wild amazement see
The scene of ruin rise beneath the lee.

Byron in Athens
The first of two eclebrated visits to Greece by Lord Byron took place in
1X09-I811 and included several stays in Athens. From there Byron
undertook excursions on horseback to a number of ancient sites in Attica,
such as Marathon, Eleusis, and Sunium. At Sunium he earved his name in a

Music Appreciation for the Tone Deaf
by Myron E.
Many people who consider
becoming involved with “classical”
music feel handicapped in that their
capacity for musicis limited by an in-
ability to hear, commonly called
tone deafness, Actually tone
deafness is quite rare, and can be
determined by a simple test. If you
can recognize a familiar tune, you
are not tone deaf. I's as simple as
that, and the truth is that most peo-
ple are not tone deaf, In fact, mostly
everyone can begin to
music if they only give it a chance.
To truly appreciate music, both
listening and understanding are in-
volved. Listening, however, is not a
ive process, itis in fact an active
one. Not only is it important to
recognize melodies, but also it is im-
portant to understand how they are
used to make a given piece into a
musical whole. In his book What 10
Listen. For in’ Music, composer
Auron Copland talks of three planes
of listening to music, namely the
Sensuous, the Expressive, and the
Musical planes
The Sensuous Plane, says Mr
Copland, refers to the sound appeal
‘of music, or more simply. the shet
pleasure of the music alane, Some
examples of music on the senstious
glane would he: reading, wile
aud San, music ta work by, or
music to think by. While taking in
music this way is not actually listen
‘ng, the sensuous plane remains a
Primordal element in music ap-
preciation.
Beyond the sound appeal of
music, there is a message in music,
and the search for tis meaning is
listening on the Expressive Plane, “Is
there meaning in music?” asks Mr.
Copland. “Yes, Can-you state in so
‘many words? No.” In fact very often
music takes on different meaningsat
different times or means different
things to different people. But there
are some who claim that there are
only musical meanings in most
pieces. A good deal of music, namely
Programatic music, deals with a
single extra-musical concept or idea.
However, a majority of symphonic
music is not simply that way
The third, and highest plane of
listening is the musieal plane. This
deals with the intellectual understan-
ding of music in terms of the notes
themselves and their manipulation
by the composer into a work of art
Most people usually recog
melody and. sometimes reco,
rhythm. Few, however, recognize
harmony.toneedlor. orn
vin in ine muste they hear,
Similarly, lyrics in choral musie are
all too often ignored.
Appreciating music entails un-
derstanding it, for anybody capable
of recognizing a theme can ap-
preciate music. The intelligent
listener must be prepared to increase
his or her awareness of the materiat
and what happens to it, Allow
i ow
yourself to hear melodies, harmonies
and tone colors in a more conscious
fashion and follow the line of the

Bad Sound Hurt Bromberg

The abbreviated brass and wind

really shone (although
Novick did tend to be somewaht of a

better than adequate, as usual, What
was somewhat disappointing,
however, was the fact that the two
fine fiddle players couldn't be heard
through much of the set.
In evidence throughout the per-

A Matter of Timing
by Stephen Ladenhelm
Timing isan important element of
chess, A timely pawn push may
Greate technical difficulties for your
opponent and a timely exchange
may secure a decisive advantage. A
good example of timing is the game

Pinafore Days
Stackridge Stackridge won't be
successful in the US. Even though
they're: being: produced: by George ”
Martin, even though they're already
known in England, they will almost
definitely fall victim to what may be
called the T. Rex Syndrome,
Like T. Rex, their music is bright
and boiincy, their lyrics inventive
and interesting. Like T. Rex, they
have too pleasant a sound fo

tribution to FM radio: an AM sta-
tion, in the form of WGFM), And

ed to minor band status, an opening
act with a cult following.
All this is not to say that
Stackridge is simply av imitation of
Bolan's entourag
Stackridge is not “simply

their strong harmonious vocals,
sounding, at times, « bit like CSNY
or the Beuch Boys. They also
manage to effectively employ a wide
range of instruments—although the
instrumental that winds up Pinafore
Days is best forgotten.
There's just no middle ground for
a group like Stackridge, and they'll
haive to settle—at least for now—for
‘a few progressive radio stations,
small club dates, and nowhere near
the exposure that they deserve.

Harrison one step further from his

Harrison’s development and use of

and ability—to perform this in-

‘a definite boost to the group.
Moraz’s use of the keyboards and
synthesizers is an orientation with,

posed to Wakeman’s more dominant
style.
‘The first side of the Relayeralbum

Mellow Jazz Explores New Areas
by Pete Lucido
Jesus, what a weekend! The
arrival of winter weekend provided a
‘welcome change of pace to the usual
campus social scene, The regular
bars and movies were available of

traditional Albany weekends. For
many, the Colonial Quad Party
(with unlimited drinks for under a

cumulating schoolwork and an alter-

with somewhat different interests,
the highlight of the weekend was the
free jazz concert held last Saturday
at P.M. in the Campus Center.
The Jimmy Heath quartet, perfor-
ming in a club type atmosphere, kept
theaudience of approximately 250in

hour performance, The quartet con-
sisted of Jack Gregg, bassist, Hal

Vechnical problems plagued the

lighting system was uncoordinated,
The enthusiastic audience took it all
in stride and was quickly rewarded
for its patience, In the highlight of
the set, another original named
"Gingerbread Boy" clectrified the
ever increasing crowd. Afterwards,
both audience and band settled back
to an evening of slow and easy jazz
accented throughout by the quartet's
‘own compositions, a few upbeat
numbers and imaginative solos.
‘The quartet, riding the wave of in-
creasing interest in jazz has per-
formed throughout the Capital Dis-
trict on its present tour. The group
like many rising recently in the jazz
field is younger while it’s format is
looser. This style has endeared them
to a new brand of jazz fans. The
young crowd is tiring of many of the
mindless and exploitative hits pass-
ing themselves off as serious rock.
Instead many are exploring new and
less commercialized areas in music
Juzz, the birthplace of modern rock,
has attracted most of this revived in-
terest. If you're into serious rock but
don't like being spoon-fed, per-
formers like Heath might be what
you are searching for.

Talent Brews
At Coffeehouse
Robin and Linda Williams have been described as a musical duo with the
ability to “radiate charisma to an audience even without singing”. Be that as it
may, their varied talents as both singers and all-around entertainers will be
available to everyone tonight at the Freeze-Dried Coffeehouse in the
‘Astembly Hall,
Their repertoire runs the gamut from traditional to folk and country and
includes some original material as well. One of their specialties, however, is
digging up underrated, overlooked material of other songwriters that, if not
for them, most listeners would probably never get the opportunity to hear. In
fact, one of the songs they perform, Morning Paper, was written by Jack
Hardy, who appeared at the Freeze-Dried Coffeehouse here last weekend.
Besides their talents as vocalists and guitarists, Robin and Linda have a
quick-witted humor that enables them to establish an easy rapport with
audiences of all types. It's the kind of rapport that, even for total strangers,
establishes them as ihe sort of friends everyone wishes they had.
Robin and Linda Wittiams will be appearing at the Freeze-Dried Coffeehouse this weekend.

In response to the article “Return to an
Earlier Mentality” appearing in the ASP on
Tuesday, February 4, I am not sure where Mr.
Mayer is getting the information that within a
few weeks a “Dachau-on-the-Hudson” will be
opening up. Dr. Nahum Goldman, President
of the World Jewish Congress which met in
Jerusalem on February3, said “that because of
the barbarities performed by the Nazis, and
the feelings of guilt that arose in the West,
anti-Semitism has declined tremendously.” As
‘a matter of fact, the position of Jews,
particularly in the United States is so
respected that “There is no real danger of a
new holocaust, of pogroms, or of a denial of
the rights for the Jewish people.”
Indeed, it is Mr. Mayer who is behaving
most like a German of the 1930's. It is he who
is jumping to absurd conclusions, hearing
footsteps in the dark, imagining conspiracies
brewing, and in general, proceeding into a
state of paranoia, History shows us that when
anyone, repeat anyone, begins to act like this,
disaster is not far away.

Bad Connection
To the Editor:
In response to Tuesday's article, “Return to
‘an Earlier Mentality,” one finds Mr. Mayer's
contention that the danger of an onslaught of
anti-Semitism in this country being imminent
simply does not hold water.
Today, no one can argue that the American
economy is not in poor condition. But to
compare the economic, social, and political
circumstances of pre-Hitler Germany with the
present state of affairs in America is absurd
Pre-Hitler Germany was mired in the midst
of horrendous inflatior then crippling
depression, America in no way approaches
this situation.
The political situation that ushered in Hitler
was one of a nation that had its first attempt
with democracy aborted, while the United
States is the oldest republic in the history of
the world. Thus, there is fittle resemblance to
the Germany of Hitler and the America of
today
Also, anti-Semitism in Germany did not
suddenly appear with advent of Nazism. Anti-
Semitism in Germany has roots going back tc
the Middle Ages. Anti-Semitism in America,
if it does exist, does not reach back “quite
that far,
Mr. Mayer points out that America would

Undoubtedly he is right. But it would be

Would we support England at the risk of our

Mr. Mayer then states that economics is
Always superior to morality in this country
Immediately implied is that support of Israel
{nd its policies of preventing the recovery of
their homeland by the Palestinian Arabs is the
only morally correct position on this question.
Without delving into the whale Middle East
Crises, it is suffice to say that this isan arrogant
‘and self-righteous attitude.
Mr, Mayer errs grieviously once again in
linking anti-Semitism to anti-Zionism. He
Would have on think that the two sentiments

insinuates that todisagreewith Israel's policies

“The threat is that » large majority of

involvement in an Arab war...” The threat to
who? Israel? The U.S. Jewish community? or
to all Jews everywhere? Again, Mr. Mayer
makes a dangerous linkage between non-
support of the state of Israel and anti-
Semitism. Ifone wishesnot to supporta war in
South Vietnam, is one then anti-Oriental? Mr.
Mayer continuously confuses political leaning
with racism,

Forcing the Issue
To the Editor: .
The Friday ASP (Feb. |) proved once again
how racist and white supremist this school is.
Right next to each other were two letters that
‘seem to exemplify the majority attitude here.
First we have Lewis Fidler of Central Council
saying that money given to ethnic groups is
money wasted. Then, on the very same page is
a letter by Ken Wax asking why the author of
‘an article on bathroom graffiti put “so much”
emphasis .on racist, i. it-black graffiti.
Shit! One instance of racist graffiti is one too
many! Whether or not the letter was supposed
Ken Wax's racism and insensitivity to the
oppression of others. It is exactly because of
attitudes like these, racist attitudes that exist
not only on the campus but which permeate
our society, that make ethnic groups
necessary.
White middle class culture (which is what
most S.A. programs give us) is exactly that—
white middle class culture (it is also male
culture but that’s another letter). It does not
relate to the needs of most non-white people.
I'm sure that Lewis Fidler believes that he is
concerned with the best interests of every one

When It Rains, It Pours

As late afternoon drew to a close, ominous
