After not playing in a game for nine days
‘and being confined to practicing indoors dur-
ing the recent snowstorms, the Albany State
Women's softball team had to be ecstatic
when they awoke early

chance (o finally (ake their bats and gloves
outdoors to game competition, the Danes
swept all three games in the Albany Invita-
tional, capturing first place, improving their
Season record to 7-2 and runi

ning streak to seven games in a row.

Originally scheduled to be played on Fri
day and Saturday, the Invitational was made
‘a one day affair as a result of the inclement
weather, This forced the teams representing
the four University centers to play all thre
games 11 one day, beginning at 9:00 in the
morning

Showing their eagerness to get back in the

swing of competition, the Danes opened with
4 5.0 shutout of the Binghamton Colonials,
* Freshman pitcher Wendy Williams tossed a
complete game two-hit shutout in registering
her fourth win of the campaign and her first
shutout, As it turned out this was just the
beginning of that was to be a long and suc-
cessful day for Williams and the rest of her
(eammates.

Albany jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the bot-
tom of the third inning, Nancy Doyle rapped
{1 one-out single to left field and stole second
base, Naney Halloran singled putting runners
a first and third, and Chris Cannata then
singled for a 1-0 Albany lead. Tracy Kirk
followed with Albany's fourth straight base
hit, making the score 2-0 and giving Williams
all the runs she needed.

Albany increased the lead to 4-0 by scoring
twice more in the bottom of the fifth, With

ed,
in the second game Albany had their only
real scare of the (ournament, as they had to
come from four runs down to edge the Stony
Brook Patriots 6-5 in nine innings.

After falling behind 1-0 the Danes tied it
their half of the fifth, Cannata executed a
perfect suicide squeeze bunt, and Halloran
crossed the plate with the tying run, Stony

runs in the sixth, and the Danes were down

inning.

Stickmen top Oswego as Casadonte nets five

By Ma, gard

Right from the opening face-off, it was ap-
parent that the Albany State men's lacrosse
team had every intention of extending their
winning streak to three games. The stickmen
played with tremendous intensity and. blew
away the Oswego State Lakers, 11-5, this past
Saturday.

“We were psyched 10 play,’ said Don
Casadonte, who led the Danes with five goals
and (wo assists.

“We had a lot of heart and intensity,"" ad-
ded John Reilly, who had a pretty good game
himself with three goals and one assist.

Bob Venier scored twice and David Faust
netted the other Albany goal. Alan Cornfield
had a super game in goal as he turned away
20 shots, A solid Dane defense, led by Joe
Campbell, Billy Watson, and Peter Wong,

record 10 5-3,

five minutes into the opening quarter. Camp-
bell led @ rush up the field and then fed
Casadonte in front of the net, who promptly
put Albany up 1-0, Less than four minutes
later, the Danes went up 2-0 on an unassi ted
goal by Faust.

‘Oswego closed the gap to 2-1, cashing in
‘on a power play at 10:24. But John Reilly's
sweep goal at 12:07 gave Albany a 3-1 advan-
tage after the first period,

Two minutes into the second quarter, a
defensive lapse found an Oswego player all
alone in front of the Great Dane net. Corn-
field had no chance, and the lead was cut to
3-2, An Oswego power-play goal five minutes
later tied the game up, and it looked like the
momentum was swinging toward the Lakers,

“After those power-play goals, we figured
out how to defend against them,” sald Corn-
field, ‘*From then on, they really didn't
generate any shots when they were @ man
ae
Fi "Tr The Danes began to check well and swarm

around the ball. Their persistence paid off as
Venier scored the go-ahead goal on a pass
from Rich Trizano. The Danes never looked
back, as they Went on to score seven more
unanswered goals. Casadonte netted his si
cond goal of the game at 13:38, and it was 5-3
at the half

The third quarter belonged to Don
Cuasadonte, He began his burial of Oswego
‘with an unassisted goal at 1:47, Coming from
behind the net, he put in his third goal while
falling down,

The tone of the game changed completely
when Campbell leveled a thrashing check on
Tony Spinella, This rallied the Albany bench,
‘and it also rallied the players on the field, as
things began geiting a bit rough.

Albany's checking and hustle led to
another goal at 6:16 when Casadonte scored
ona superb pass from Venier. Oswego look-
ed perplexed as the Danes now led 7-3.

Then the backbreaker came. An unsport-
smanlike penalty on Oswego enabled Albany
to wrap up the game, Reilly took a pass from
Casadonte, who was stationed behind the
net, He then zinged it home in the top left
corner, ‘That was just basically our free
lance offense,’’ Reilly commented, ''I was
Just looking to get open.

Less than a minute later, the same com:
bination struck again, Casadonte was behind
the net, and he fed Reilly close in front. That
goal made it 9-3. This goal was a set play. 1
just cut across the crease and he threw it in
front,"’ Reilly said.

Cornfield had a relatively quiet period in
the net, A frustrated Oswego team began to
play rough, but while they took the penalties,
the Danes happily took the goals.

Casadonte capped off the third quarter
with an unassisted goal, number five for him
on the day.

It was a rough fourth period, with Albany
taking six penalties. Cornfield came up big
along with the defense.

Yenier scored the final Albany goal, put

ting in a rebound shot at 6:56,
Oswego goals made the final 11-5.

“There were some lapses on man down.
situations, but overall we played pretty
well,"" said Albany head coach Mike Motta

“Our transition game worked fine in the
third quarter,"’ praised Cornfield, "The
defense also played very well,””

“We played fou quarters today, and
that's the most important thing,’’ added

Albany probably won't qualify for the
playoffs, but there still are a couple of goals.
Worth aiming for. Reilly “would like to go
the rest of the way undefeated-that would be
nice." Cornfields goal ‘is to shoot for a na-
tional ranking in the Top 15.""

The next match is home against Buffalo
State Saturday, with three games scheduled

Party in Washington Park Sunday is disputed

By Steve Fox
EDITORIAL ASSISTANT

The “Party in the Park’ scheduled at
Washington Park this Sunday is cancelled
because of "security problems," according
to Albany city officials. SA President Rich
Schaffer said that he still considers the event
on.

Schaffer sald he hopes that they can work
something out with the city, but if the city of-
ficials attempt to cancel the event, SA At-
torney Mark Mishler will file an injunction in
Court {0 prevent the attempts of the officials,

Mishler met in negotiations Thursday with
the Lawyer for the City of Albany, Vincent
McCardle, to try to reach some sort of com:
Promise. According to Mishler, McCardle
said that the event was cancelled because,
‘the police said that they could not handle
the number of people that would be there.”
Schaffer estimated that approximately 1,200
People would turn out for the event. McCar-
dle, however, could not be reached for com-
ment,

Albany Division II Deputy Chief of Police
Daniel VanAlbergh said that the event was
fuslh but would not comment any fur-
ther.

Schaffer explained that when he talked to
Common Council President Tom Whalen
Wednesday night, Whalen told him that the
event was cancelled because he (Whalen) was
“worried about a student uprising, about the
possibility of the students taking over the
park, and about the tulips in the park getting
destroyed, The tulips of Washington Park
are at the center of a tulip pageant held there
every year,"'said Schaffer. Whalen could
not be reached for comment

Off-Campus Association Director Diane
Podolsky said that they were providing 25
trained students as security guards (0 main-
tain order, and that the tulips would be roped
off, Schaffer noted that the tulips are away

from the site of the main event, and would

Schaffer said that Thursday alternoon he
received a conditional offer indirectly from
Whalen; instead of 25 student security
patrollers, Whalen proposed that 15 off-duty

ity of Albany police officers provide security
Sunday, Schaffer explained. It was not
known whether the officers would be armed.

“The problem with this" Schaffer
noted, "is that we will be paying double time
for Albany police when we can provide for

the securily ourselves." He added that SA
has no more money (0 spend on this event,
"We have already spent over $3,000 in get-
ting the bands, the kegs (40), and providing
for insurance.” SA will be liable, and will
lose this money if the event Is not held, he
said,

“Events like this have been going on at
Washington Park with no problems for the
past couple of years,"” said Schaffer, "there
1s no basis for this,"? He added that the per-
mit was signed April 18, but that prepara:
tions have been underway since the initial re-
quest was made in the beginning of February,

“We went around like everything was fine.
We got insurance, obtained a beer permit and
4 special events permit, somebody should
have told us if there was a problem," Schaf-
fer asserted, "Not until a couple of days
after the issuance of the permil did Podolsky

SA selects new officials for the upcoming year

By Heidi Gralla
STATE WAITER

Running unopposed, Bob Helbock and
Lisa Kerr were elected to the positions of
chair and vice-chair respectively in Central
Council's elections Wednesday night

Central Council also approved SA Presi-
dent Rich Schaffer's appointments of Adam
Barsky as controller; Richie Golubow, Direc-
tor of Student Programming; Vivian Vaz
quez, Minority Affairs Coordinator; and
Libby Post, SA Media Director:

Helbock, entering his third year on Coun-
cil, said he believes the chair's role is to act as
a ‘'mediator."”

“1 don't consider myself the ‘ruler’ of
Council,"” explained the off-campus
Fepresentative and former two-year chair of
Council's Intercollegiate Athletics Commit-
tee,

Helbock noted that he hopes to cut down
on some of the friction that existed this year
between the executive branch and Council
"The Chair should act as a go-between from
the 35 members of Council to the executive
branch," he said, adding that he, Schatter,
Kerr and SA vice president Jeff Schneider
“haye a yery good rapport,"

Kerr agreed pointing out that all four have
worked together as Central Council members
this year,

Kerr, an off-campus representative, said
the position of Vice-Chair ‘thas always been

tof played down’! and she'd like to

uild it into more of a leadership position.""

She maintained, however, that her plans
for changes are not intended to criticize past
Vice-Chairs.

“1 plan to build up the position to be a
more working position," the former Internal
Affairs Committee Chair asserted, noting
that she plans to become more involved with
committee work to ensure efficiency.
Although the presidential appointments
were approved with only one Council
rember voting no on any of them, there were
several abstentions, and some members later
expressed various reservations about the ap:

A few members said they abstained

“The most important relationship in the

Reagan asks backing

Washington, D.C,
(AP) Despite President Reagan's wi nit
that “the safety of our homeland”? is at stake
in Central America, his proposed miliary ald
package for El Salvador and CIA support for
Nicaraguan rebels remain under attack in
Congress,

In a rare foreign policy address to a joint
session of Congress Wednesday night,
Reagan declared that a leftist guerrilla victory.
in El Salvador could undermine U.S.
credibility around the world, and he called
for bipartisan backing for his Central
‘American policies,

‘The first test of the speech's impact could
come as early as today. The House In-
{elligence Committee was expected to con-
sider @ proposal to cut off CIA ald to in-
surgents fighting against the leftist
Nicaraguan government,

That proposal, sponsored by Rep, Edward
P. Boland, D-Mass., committee chairman,
would terminate covert U.S, support for the
insurgants within 45 days and establish in-
stead a public fund to help Central American
governments stop leflist gun-running in the
Tegion, House Republicans are trying to
delay a vote on the proposal.

Although some Democrats praised the
generally moderate tone of the president's
speech, others disagreed with what they
regarded’ as his overemphasis on military
assistance.

According to U.S, officials, the cruise test

the two leaders discussed strategic policy,

Pershing Il missiles in Europe later this year
if the Soviet Union will trim its intermediate-

Trudeau had indicated the decision on
Whether to allow the American test fights

Hinkley needed help

New York

(AP) The parents of John Hinckley Jr, say
they wanted to send their son to a mental

jospital four months before he attempted to
Kill the president but a psychiatrist talked
them out of it.

John’s father, Jack Hinckley, told ABC's
Barbara Walters, in an interview to be aired
tonight on the 20-20" program, that his son
seemed (o be becoming addicted to the drug
Valium.

“We said, ‘John, we think you need to go
to a hospital,’ the elder Hinckley re.
counted, ‘and after a long conversation, he

reed."

However, the next day, the father seid, he
had an appointment with John’s psychiatrist,
a Dr. John Hopper, The laiter was quoted as
advising:

Don't send him to a mental
hospital. 1 know what it will do. It will make
cripple out of him, and I think we can solve
his problems without that, I think I can have
him off Valium within 30 (0 60 days."’

Jack Hinckley said he and his wife went
home and told John that they didn't think he
required hospitalization after all.

“At this point we were all so confused that
we didn’t know what we were doing,” the
father added.

“You have @ psychiatrist who says, ‘Be a
little tough with him,'"” Miss Walters sald to
John's mother. ‘You disagreed with
didn't you?!”

“Yes, I did,’ Mrs. Hinckley replied, “But
I realized that Jack and I had to present a
united front with our son and let him know
wwe both agreed on what we were doing was
right.’

should stink in the nostrils of Jews,"” accor-
ding (o Ralph Schoenman, But according to
Yaakov Goldberg, ‘there is no peace because
no Palestinian leader in 70 years has had the
courage to step forward and compromise.”

These two statements symbolized the vast
gap between Arabs and Jews internationally
and at SUNYA, Schoenman and Goldberg
spoke Wednesday night in the Performing
Arts Center on the historical aspects of the
peace process, a debate jointly sponsored by
Jewish groups on campus and by the Arab
student association, and organized by the
campus administration.

Goldberg, an Israeli who Is currently a

siting professor of political science at both
Cornell University and George Washington
University, spoke on behalf of campus
Jewish groups, including JSC-Hillel and
Revisionist Zionist Alternative,

Studies Helen Desfosses served as moderator.

The attempt by University officials to hold
a jointly sponsored debate by campus Jewish
and Arab groups eventually collapsed into
acrimony with the strict division of seating of
the camps at the debate symbolizing the
broader international polerization of Jews
and Arabs, The audience of about $0 in the
Recital Hall appeared to be divided equally
beiween Arabs and Jews. The crowd was
completely involved throughout, often
breaking into applause and sometimes jeering
and laughing at statements by the speakers,
Only at the end, during the question session,
did loud and accusatory remarks appear,
along with several ugly shouting matches,

According (o the Chairman of the African
and AfroAmerican Studies Department,
Frank Pogue, the coordinator of administra-
tion efforts towards conciliation between the
{wo groups, the jointly sponsored debate was
an effort to exchange information in an
academic setting with the hope of building
fespect and understanding between the
groups, Each group, said Pogue, provided a
list of speakers who were chosen on the basis
Of availability

Goldberg began the debate and generally
stuck to @ historical analysis of the mideast
conflict, ‘It's a pleasure {0 be here," he said,
“1 see that the camps are polarized — just
like at home,"”

He recalled a visit o the mideast in 1953 by
Secretary of State John Foster Dulles, who,
frustrated In hisattempts at mideast recon:
sillation, said “If these goddam Jews and
goddam Arabs could sit down like good
Christians, everything would be O,K.""

According {0 Goldberg, four factors
within the Arab world create serious
‘obstacles to peuce — the fact that the Arab
world is in a period of transition, an indentity
problem among the Arabs, the misperception
that the Arab-Israeli conflict is the only con-
flict in the mideast, and finally, that the Arab
Intelligentsia has utterly failed to understand

the concept of a Jewish people,

Schoenman, however, based his discussion
on what he referred to as three myihs about
the state of Israel, These myths, he said are
the myth that there is democracy in Israel,
the myth of a people without a land, and the
myth that Zionism is the moral legacy of the
victims of the Holocaust,

Like Europe 300 years ago, sald Goldberg,
the Arab world is undergoing massive
changes — Westernization, Industrialization,
ind a decline in (raditional values, **Western
seneiration,”” he said, ‘created trauma
decause Arabs always believed they were
superior to the west, They found out they ob-
viously were not,"

urther, Goldberg explained that self-
identity of the Arabs is a problem. The
predicament for Arabs he said, was are we
Egyptians or Arabs? Or are we Moslems
first? What happens,"’ he asked, “when the
three clash?"?

The third factor barring mideast peace, ac-
cording (0 Goldberg, is the misconception
that the Arab-Israeli conflict is the only con-
Mict in the mideast, ‘Actually,’ he said,

he Arab world jiself is filled with divisi

mong them the three-year old Tran-fraq war,
the conflict between Egypt and Libya and the
conflict between Syria and Lebanon,"

Finally, Goldberg said, the Arab in-
{elligentsia has utterly failed to understand
the concept of a Jewish people, "The foun-
ation of peace,” he asserted, “is Arab
Understanding of these three pillars: Jewish
people, Jewish history, and Jewish land"?

Schoenman, on the other hand, said that
the real crux of the Arabslsraell conflict is
that the state of Isreal is a classic case of col-
onialism and. racism, "The issue," said

“iy not the presence of Jews in
the Middle East, it is that of a state and
ety predicated on the exclusion of a pe
their own land.”

Saying that democracy in Israel is a myth,

Schoenman asked, ‘Is it democracy where

the entitlement to join a labor union is based
on race? Where are the rights of due process
{o be free from torture are based on race?

The real resolution of the Arab-Israeli con-
flict, Schoenman, claimed, would be the
democratization and secularization of the
state of Israel,

In his response, Goldberg asked, ‘'If Israel
is oppressive, what is Syria? Do we want a
democratic secular state based on the Arab

he asserted, ‘is the only
place in the mideast where Arabs participate
in free elections,"*

Goldberg contended that since the Zionist
movement began (0 pick up steam in the 20s
and 30s, Jews have consistently been willing
to compromise, During the flight from
Hitler, in the fate 30s, sald Goldberg, Jews
Were ready for compromise, In 1948, he add-
ed, Jews accepted the UN plan to partition
Palestine. And from that period to 1967,
Goldberg said, Israelis were prepared to sign
@ peace treaty based on the existing borders,

“On the other side, there has been total
fefusal to accept anything but all of
Palestine,"” said Goldberg.

Goldberg said blame for the plight of the

Arab world divided.

Summer session tuition increased by trustees

By Matt Reiss
STATE PRESS SERVICE

The passage of a revised summer session
tuition schedule highlighted Thursday morn-
ing’s meeting of the SUNY Board of
Trustees,

Vice Chancellor for Finance and Business
Harry K, Spindler explained that the summer
schedule tuition increase was one result of a
“very large revenue commitment from the
executive budget.’” It could not be avoided,
noted Spindler, “without raising regular term
tuition higher." This is also taking into ac-
count the $300 increase to be passed by the
{rustees next month.

The summer tuition schedule raises tuition
from $35 to $45 for New York state residents
while graduate and out-of-state charges are
increased up {0 51 percent from last year,
“These rates would raise summer tuition to
the same amount per credit hour as that pro-
posed for the fall,”” he noted. The total in-
crease in revenue projected through higher
tuition costs would equal $50 million, added
Spindler.

In addition to the summer session tuition
schedule, the distribution of revenues
generated by Governor Cuomo's computer
fee increase the projected effects of a five
cent decrease in campus space utilization as
well as management-employee salary in-
creases were discussed,

ecutive Vice Chancellor Donald
O'Dowd told the trustees that the $25 com-
puter fee (which was later tacked onto the
tuition increase so that students could
recover the increase from higher TAP
payments) should be sent back to the campus
Where it was generated, based on @ propor-
tional scale,

Many campuses would use the money to

purchase new micro computers or mini com-
pulers with multiple terminals while others
would upgrade present systems. O'Dowd ex-
plained that the money would go only to
computing for academic purposes, not ad-
minstrative computing. He later rejected the
notion that SUNY could effectively compete
with hi-tech schools like Clarkson, Carnegie
Mellon, and RPI, where the computer-to-
student ratio is close to | to 10, The same
ratio at SUNY approached 1 {0 200 at some
campuses, "We'd have to raise ten times as
much revenue (earmarked for computers),
O'Dowd noted,

Student Trustee James Tierney voiced a
belated protest against the governor's suc-
cessful attempt to institute the computer fee,
calling such an action, “a major infrin
ment on academic freedom,”

Vice Chancellor Oscar E, Lanford explain-
ed that the decreased utilization of space was
agreed upon in order to transfer utility say-
Ings to restore faculty positions (removed in
the governor's budget), He explained that t
zach campus must abandon instruction and!
Support space by an average of five percent
on a university wide level, This formula is not
proportional, as ‘Albany would not be af-
fected at all,"® according to Lanford, ‘and
some of the others might have to cut 25 per-
cent or more, We didn’t think every campus
could go to the 95 percent rule," he conclud-
ed.

SUNY carly retirement quotas, nebulous
in the budget, were set at 1000 for the upcom-
ing fiscal year.

Chancellor Clifton Wharton noted the re-
cent denial of expected salary increases for
certain management personnel, In SUNY,
this denial would effect only those employees
teporting directly to the chancellor, such as
vice chancellors and campus presidents who

ire regarded as ‘political appointments,’ This
has caused us a great deal of concern,"
revealed Wharton, He mentioned the
hypothetical case of an administrator resign-
ing and collecting a higher salary for 10 mon-
ths as a facully member than he would have

for 12 months as an administrator,

The genetic research of David
Shub and Nancy Casna is ‘poten-
tially revolutionary,"” according to
Biology Department Chair Henry
Tedeschi, Through their efforts,
Shub, an assistant professor in the
biology department and Casna, a
Ph.D. student, their work “could
be applicable in the clincal
diagnosis of bacterial or viral infec-
tions," said Tedeschi,

According {0 Shub, he was
motivated to research the activity of
Viruses on host cells because it was a
previously unstudied area of
genetics. ‘One of the things that
has been left unexplained in
molecular genetics is a striking
phenomena in viral activity. When
@ virus enters a host cell,’ said
Shub, ‘within two minutes all of
the host cell's functions are switch:
ed off by the virus, The virus! DNA.
takes over the machinery of the cell
and the virus’ functions work full
speed ahiead,"* he explained

Shub's study attempts to explain
this phenomena, “I am interest in
setting up a general model that
shows how one set of genes can taki
over for another set of genes,
Shub said.

The procedure, described by
Shub, consists of “turning the
tables!” on the virus, The start
signal, a spot on the host cells’
DNA where the cell is taken over by
the virus, was discovered by Shub
and Casha to be located at the
beginning of the host's genes, Shub
explained that by putting the host's
DNA into the beginning of the viral
gene, and continuing the virus’
growth, the viral genes start signal is
switched from replicating its own to
replicating that of the new cell
Which is introduced into the virus.

By instilling another set of in
structions into the virus’ DNA from
the new cell, the virus’ damaging

proliferation is rendered inac
according to Shub, ‘If we can inac-
tivate the virus’ discriminating
gene," he said, “we can stop
Viruses from killing host cells,""

This problem, according to Shub,

my hand,” he sald, and enabled
him to carry out his experiment,
Shub explained that gene splicing
Fequires literally cutting parts of
genes and combining them with
other genes to obtain a desired end
product, Because the virus used in
the experiment, Bacteriophage T-4,
is resistant to ordinary gene splicing
techniques, Shub had to invent a
modification of the regular splicing
technique to conduct his experi-
ment,

All research, sald Tedeschi, is
funded through federal grants. He
emphasized that research Is not
University funded and the resear-
chers must get thelr own grants,

Shub began considering this pro-
ject about three years ago, He
received a grant for $25,000 to pur-
sue it a year and a half ago from the
New York State Health Depart-
ment, He has just recelved a grant
Of $130,000 to continue his research
from the National Science Founda-
tion, Shub says he and Casna and a
small lab staff are trying to figure
‘out what they found from the first
part of the experiment, Most of the
viruses they experimented with
sponded favorably, but a few
mutants survived, Further research
will be directed at trying to find out
why the mutants didn't respond
Shub adds that there could be ap
plications of his findings but those
possibilities are still in the thinking
stages.

SUNY develops program to
draw graduate minorities

By Marlin Adams

A $1.3 million program to en
courage more minority students to
enter graduate and professional
programs is in full swing after being
held up for nearly a yearin the Divi
sion of the Budget

The Affirmative Action Program
for the Expansion of Minority
Students in SUNY Graduate and
Professional Programs was
developed a year ago, but has been.
delayed until this year because of a
bureaucratic delay at the Division
of the Budget, according to Alden
N. Haffner, vice chancellor for
research, graduate studies and pro-
fessional programs.

The program is intended to work
in conjuction with existing pro-
grams on individual campuses. The
purpose of this effort, Haffner
says, is to increase the pool of
minority students qualified to suc~
ceed in a graduate or professional
program, Once these students have
been identified, their names will be
forwarded to individual campuses

$600,000 for fellowships and
$700,000 in tuition waivers

At a recent meeting, minority
recruitment counselors from.
around the state pointed out that
publicity and one-to-one counseling
would be the best way to relate to
students and change their percep
tions about graduate and profes-
sional program opportunities.

“Minority students perceive
graduate and professional studies as
imposing and extensive, without
Supportive money, thus, putting it
beyond their reach, We want to
dispell these misconseptions,"* Haf-
fer said,

In order to reach the broadest
possible minority student audience,
the state will be divided into 10-15
geographic districts. In each district
a seminar and general meeting will
be held to bring together minority
students from both the private and
public colleges who are already
engaged in undergraduate pro-
grams.

Dr. Haffner believes that involy-
ing working professionals and

Graveyard study digs up the past

By Chris Thomas

When Professor Barbara Rotun-
do is not teaching English, she can
be found walking through
graveyards studying cemeteries,

What began as a hobby 15 years
ago, has made Rotundo a specialist
{in rural cemeteries — the type that
arose in the early 1830's as a place
for city dwellers to spend leisure
time and spend time near the graves
of relatives,

Rotundo explained that the study
of graveyards is best used to cor-
roborate historical evidence and to
update town records, census reports
and employment records. She said
that the historian can estimate dates
of immigration by scrutinizing the
names of the deceased and the dates
of the death,

“Death in the 1800's was
flaunted,” she said, “men and
women would wear black clothing
or a black armband after the death
of someone close. Since death was
socially acceptable and understan-
dable in earlier times, it was not a
skirted issue as it Is presenily,”” she
added . According to Rotundo, the
cemeteries ‘were the forerunners of
modern day parks, Without their
development we probably would
not have Central Park in New York
City, or for that matter, any large
urban parks."” It was common for
families to take weekend outings to
these rural graveyards for picnics
and to escape the increasing conges-
tion of the cities during that time,
Rotundo explained,

The paramount example of the
Fural cemetery, according to Rotun-
do, is the Victorian style Mt,

\8th century historical Shaker cemetery

The study is best used (0 corroborate historical evidence,

Auburn which is situated between
the Charles River and the road to
Watertown on Boston's outskirts,
Established in 1831, it is the first
such cemetery and started a
fashionable trend towards ruralily
which was later to become
characteristic of the majority of
19th century graveyards.

The topography of the ‘average
rural cemetery”? was designed (0
centuate nature; it included hills,
trees, brooks and low headstone for
more of the park-like atmosphere,
she sald, Later, low headstones
were a cost-effective measure re-
quiring little maintenance,

“The rural cemetery came at a
‘ime of cosmopolitaness and a
general desire that burial become
more ecumenical. People of the
period believed that since they lived
as one within a democracy they
could certainly be buried as one in
the same graveyard,'’ said Rotun-
do.

In the Capital District, Albany
Rural Cemetary (Established
1840's), Vale Cemetary in Schencc-

tady (1857) and Oakwood
Cemetary of Troy, were all
established during the period and
reflect these characteristics,

City planners of the 1830's, said
Rotundo, moved many graves from
town plots to the newly created
rural sites; therefore, it is possible
to find stones from the 17th century
in cemeteries established in 1830,

“Colonial headstones, by and
large are flat plaques adorned with
cherubs and angels, With improved
transportation (expanding network
of railroads), larger and more or-
hate stones were possible," noted
Rotundo, She continued, "first the
deeper relief of the neoclassic 19th
century appeared, Secondly the
more professional — three~
dimensional stones of the 19th and
20th century appeared,"” she ex-
plained,

Rolundo's research has been
published in The Harvard Bulletin,
the Ethics Institute, Historical Col-
fection, The Association for
Gravestone Studies, and The British
Journal of Garden History, [)

Arab and Jewish debate
receives mixed reactions

The first attempt by the ad-
ministration to provide a mutually
sponsored event between campus
Arab and Jewish groups has gotten
mixed reactions from both parties

‘ple who put this paper together are riot paid profes:
sionals — they're college students,

Similar to other college groups, this organization has a
large turnover of personnel each year, Many of the faces on

Others are just beginning to show some wear and tear, Only
‘a handful of us can boast a couple of years of experience,
Ouir purpose here is (0 learn about the field of journalism
while serving the university community as its primary
source of information,

Couple this inexperience with long hours of production,
and it’s inevitable that mistakes will sometimes get by. Such
Was the case with the letter entitled “Support South
Africa’ in our April 26 issue,

T his newspaper is not run by a machine, It is written,

We encourage a diversity of opinion in the letters we
print, The Albany Student Press is the only newspaper on
campus, and we have the largest circulation of any publica-
tion on campus, Because of this we have an obligation to
Tepresent as many diverse opinions as possible in our col-
umn and letters space. These writings do not necessarily
represent that of this newspaper. For instance, in one edi-
tion we'll run a column written by a person supporting
Palestinian liberation; the next edition we'll run a column

written by a person advocating Israel's West Bank set-
tlements, This doesn't mean we're ambivalent on the topic
= we simply feel we have an obligation to give access to a
wide varity of opinion,

The same rule applies to our letters space. We understand
the responsibility our virtual monopoly of the press on this
campus brings, and we try to run the widest range of opl-
nion we can, Sometimes we agree with these letters — many
times we disagree, The opinion of the writer is paramount,

Although we try to represent such diverse opinion, not all
letters we recieve in the mail are published. Every letter
must be signed, and must include a phone number to verity
that that person is real and, in fact, wrote the letter.
Sometimes, when it’s warranted, we withhold the writer's
name on request, Our policy is not to publish letters that
aren't signed and don't include a phone number,

Other letters can't be published for more subjective
reasons. Obviously, libelous letters aren't published, Other
letters that are unintelligibly written or contain racial,
ethnic or sexual epithets aren't published,

The ‘‘Support South Africa’ letter last edition should
not have been published, Due to an editing error, the
authorship of the letter was not verified. After publication,
We discovered the name signed to the letter was fictitious,
The author didn’t have the belief in his or her opinion to

sign their own real name,

If our normal policy of verifing the authorship of ley
had been followed, the letter would not have been prined
An error like this is serious and unfortunate, and ve eye:
it.

‘The letter was in response to a column by Profexy
Japhet M, Zwana on apartheid, Over the past several yean
we've run many columns by Zwana and others on a

Socialism & the atomic

Man is a truly amazing creature. He has built such spec-

(acles as the Great Wall of China and the Pyramids,
discovered medicines, sent rockets into space, and created
suich wonders as the home video game, football, and the
Slate university system, It seems that one of Man's great,
innate characteristics is to be creative, Unfortunately, not
all of Man's creations are good, and he often unwittingly
manages to blunder with the use of his toys, Take,for ex:
ample, the atomic bomb and socialism, Both are products
‘of Man's ingenuity, and both, if put to use, would destroy
him. Now maybe itis not really accurate to lump the effects
of nuclear Weaponry together with the effects of socials

[Craig Rucker

namely because there are recognizable differences, The ef-
fects of an atomic bomb would, in my opinion, be less
devastating than that of a true socialist state; for while the
bomb would at least offer death (which is by no means a
preferred option), the latter offers life without liberty.
there are still many who uphold freedom even at the

potential cost of life, {do not feel this analogy to be par-
Hcularly inappropriate. . . nor In any way misleading,

thas always fascinated me why our state universities are
infested with this radical and unpopular organization called
the Socialist Party. ‘Their appeal has never reached the
‘general populace or working class people — the ones they
claim (o represent — but rather the university professors
and students , . . not o mention other “intelligent” people
as Well, A Socialist would argue that itis these ‘‘educated””
people that must first perpetrate the Ideas before they can
be spread as gospel to the rest of the nation, In this respect,
their methods are not unlike a cancer, which also starts in
one area before spreading throughout the organism, But
Just as cancer inevitably kills the patient, so too does
Socialism destroy individual freedom, If it were not for the
fact that this disease appears to be growing (not among the
populace but the students), We could easily dismiss these
radicals as mindless lunatics — a notion I certainly do not
‘overrule. But since they do obviously have a foundation
hete in our schools, an understanding of their background
‘and cause seems in order,

Many historians dub the first modern state to institute a
Socialist platform as being the German Empire under Otto
von Bismarck. It should strike one as rather appalling that
the first socialist policies were developed under a right-
winged dictatorship, even though this is really not so
paradoxical once one understands socialism, As Milton
Friedman intuitively commented: ‘Believers in aristocracy
and socialism share a faith in centralized rulg, in rule by
command rather than yoluntary cooperation. They really
only differ in who should rule; whether an elite determined
by birth or experts supposedly chosen on merit,'” Both
systems believe they know what is best for the public in-
terest, and know how to do so more than the ordinary per-
son, Interestingly, when they do attain power they wind up
promoting the interests of their own class in the name of
“general welfare.”” Just what is their class though? This is a
question which must be answered to understand what

socialism is all about,

As stated previously, the new class is largely comprised of
students and university professors, but also has in its ranks
those individuals whose interests are closest to an expan-
ding government, Government is the coercive instrument
with which they need to wield thelr power to restructure
society In a fashion that sults thelr interests, Most hard-line
socialists look with passion to countries like ex-Maoist
China or Castro's Cuba and contend that there enlies a
free society.'” If government were in their hands we could
expect a state where one’s Individuality is sacrificed in the
hame of ‘social progress,"? for anyone familiar with a true
socialist government realizes that the community's rights
are superior to those of the individual's, While this might
Initially sound good, one must remember it is not the or-
dinary citizen who will define these rights, but an
“educated!” elite who will define them for him. Freedom,
toa socialist, does not belong at the individual level, but at
the state level, There is no ‘'person,"” per se, but a govern-
ment to which that person must serve unconditionally, If

this sounds horrifying, well, that is because itis! The Nazi

Now there is no reason to believe the average socialist

The preceding lines are only a tiny
synopsis. of the overwhelmingly great
number of questions that you must ask
yourself upon reviewing the Issue of
nuclear energy. They are listed In such
rapid succession $0 as to make you more
‘aware of the many divergent viewpoints
‘and attitudes that become involved In such
‘a review. And, they pose many of the basic
questions that you must ask yourself before
passing Into a state of activeness or
passiveness on the issue.

In deciding whether to involve yourself
‘actively In programs for or against the uses
of nuclear energy, you will find yourself
confronted with all of these questions, But
first, you must decide whether you are for
‘or against the continued use ‘of nuclear
‘energy. This {s a vastly complicated ques
tion, for not only does nuclear energy have
‘a multitude of uses ranging from the pro-
duction of energy (a survival tactic), to
military weaponry (a destructive tactic), but
it also entails the dilemma that questions
the feasibility of actually being able to bring
the production and development of
nuclear energy to an end,

When and if you have reached a per
sonal conclusion you must then commit
yourself to elther action or non-action

Many understandably choose non-action
because they are not willing or able to
compromise thelr own views with the either
‘extremely liberal or exemely conservative
views held by the various action groups.

More often though, people do not act
because they feel that nothing can be ac-
complished through group action and so
remain on the outskirts of such organiza
tions, tending to their own affairs and
resigning themselves to the conviction that
if a nuclear holocaust does occur, groups

For the conscientious individual
however, it is a far more difficult path to
take In committing himself to a group
‘because he sees the dissonance belween
thought and action, and (more often than
not), the apparent futiliy in such
endeavors. Still, he sees that itis necessary
to put up with the Inconsistency and to
tolerate the devastatingly small Impact that
his actions will have upon the outcome of
the future, Morever, he will see that these
actions may be a small, but necessary, step
in a more right direction, This Is a
frustrating and morally awkward part to
play because the individual must not only,
Compromise many of his own bellefs and
convictions, but must constantly fight to

1s. Adams became enraged In
WI 1963, at a time when the

American troops in Vietnam
were still being called “advisors” and the
Cuban Missile Crisis was fresh in people's
memory. She grew up in New York City in
the thirties, in what she describes as a
"radical" household, Her mother spoke
French and German, and her home was
offen a resting place for European
refugees. Her parents’ circle discussed the
persecution of the Jews in Eastern Europe,
the union movement, and the Spanish
Civil War, Mrs, Adams remembers going
down to the docks to watch the departure
of the Lincoln Brigade, Americans salling
to Spain to fight on the side of the
Republic, and the loading of what was left
‘of New York's elevated subway track onto
‘Japanese freighters,

‘Adams wrote a column of political com-
mentary for the school newspaper. It was
an unusual feature for a college paper, and
was "ditched,” she says, under pressure
from the Gannett family, substantial
benefactors of the university

She met Ted Adams In college, and they
were married soon after thelr graduation in
1947, Both did their graduate work at
Ohio State (he in English, she in
physiology), and moved first to Buffalo,
where they stayed seven years, and finally
to Albany.

by Andy Carroll

From the time of their arrival in Albany,
the Adamses had been involved with
varlous protests, like joining other pro-
fessors from the old State Teachers College
— the Bergers, the Leues, the Staleys — at
picket lines in front of Albany's five and ten
cent stores, demanding the owners hire
minority workers. Yet as far as anti-war ac-
tivity went, there was little until Good Fri-
day of 1963, when the Adamses took part
ina peace vigil held by Albany's Quakers,
Mrs. Adams remembers a gray, dreary
day, standing outside the state capital and
huddling In lobbies against the cold

Whatever "peace movement” Albany
would ever have grew out of so small a
beginning — besides the Quakers, known
as the "Society of Friends” and traditionally
‘a pacifist church group, the movement at
that time consisted of Mrs, Adams and five
other women, “all wondering what we can
do about It,” One of their first actions as a
group was the planning of a series of six
publle meetings at the Albany YMCA, The
Idea was to attract speakers, the media,
‘and people who until then had no forum to
vent thelr frustration at the war, The
meetings were a success, and soon Albany
had a local chapter of the nation-wide,
Philadelphia-based Women's Internationa’
League for Peace and Freedom,

of the war effort, but an Increase in activism

remembers, at the newly constructed cam-
pus of the State University, 700 people
gathered on a Friday night to listen to
speakers (including Noam Chomsky, who
Will be on campus this Monday nigh!) and
to look to an answer to the question,
“What can we do about jt?”

Despite the success of that conference, it
was stil considered “tasteless!” when Mrs.
Adams appeared at ceremonies marking
the twentieth anniversary of the United Na-
tions, wearing a sandwich board which
criticized the U,N/’s failure to intervene in
what was so obviously an. Intemational
concem as Vieinam. “(Albany Mayor
Erastus) Corning loved the U.N., and with
good reason," says Mrs, Adams today.
"They had successes in health care, world
hunger, UNICEF, But by keeping the Viet
nam Issue out of the U.N,, the U.S,
emasculated it in regards to
peace-keeping." Mrs. Adams is hardly bit-
ter at the public reaction to her demonstra:
tion, Instead, she mentions the minister
Who took a few moments to stand beside
her

For her 1975 book Winners and Losers,
Journalist Gloria Emerson interviewed the
‘Adamses, and included in the book a five.
page profile of the couple's involvement in
the anti-war movement. The section con-
trasts Ted Adams — a literature professor
trying unsuccessfully to escape the realities
of the war by reading his Willa Cather and
maintaining traditional standards in the
classroom — with Rezsin, who never
rested along as there were demonstrations,

marches, vigils, and meetings of peace
groups, It’s hardly an unkind portralt of the
professor; his apathy, which quickly
dissolves, \s fueled by a dedication to his
role as teacher and a refusal to accept what
was happening. And her profile of Mrs,
‘Adams remains appropriate a decade later.
"She knew there were people In Albany
who had made fun of her, a middle-aged
woman in blue Jeans and seatshirts, but she
did not care. It had been many years since
she had worn dresses or used make-up, It
was easier to keep her long gray hair loose,

She knew that there were people who
despised her, were startled by her, or
astonished, or thought that she was goofy
or naive, The war did not ever go away. It
Just became other places and other pro-
blems.”

Mrs, Adams’ activism continued despite
the criticism, She would join the Quakers
‘on thelr weekly silent vigil at the steps of
the state capital bullding, and rode in one
of the three buses which left Albany for the
March on the Pentagon In October of 1967
(‘There were mostly students on the bus,
and a handful of townspeople," she says)
The protestors assembled for the Quaker
Vigils seldom numbered above 2:

was never a day when no one showed up.
In 1968 she Joined the Jeanette Rankin
Group, a women’s peace effort named in
honor of the United States’ first
congresswoman. Rankin represented
Montana (which gave women the vote
before the federal government did) in both
1917 and 1941, aand earned the distinc-
tion of being the only representative to op-
pose U.S, Involvement in World Wars |
and Il, Mrs. Adams also brought her
daughter along for Joan Baez's "Mother
and Daughter” vigil In Washington

In the spring of 1968, there came an
event which “changed my Ife In many
ways,” according to Mrs, Adams, She was
‘one of 17 people who were arrested block-
Ing Albany's draft board, Thirteen people
went to the Albany County Jail, and Mrs.
Adams \was one of them. She was surpris-
ed not because she was arrested or Jailed,
but because of the harshness of the
sentence, Elsewhere, demonstrators were
either receiving fines or a night's stay in
lock-up. Arrested in Albany, she served 13
and a half days of a 15 day sentence
When she asked why the penalties were as
stiff as they were, she received this reply
from the judge: “Justice doesn't come
cheap in Albany.

there

may have been a new develop:

ment in U.S. history. Up until
Vietnam, we had trusted our presidents,
What became clear during the war was the
fact that we were being lied to, We didn't
know how much the government would lie
to us.”

While the end of the war brought a
hiatus in activity among the various groups
(the Capital District Peace Center dissolved
In the early seventies), the understanding
that the government had lied nevertheless
ushered in a new decade of activism for
both Mrs. Adams and the country. It's at
this time that she began her controversial
involvement in Albany politics, opposing
the city's Democratic machine and defying
lls members, In 1967 she had joined the
New Democratic Coalition, a reform move-
ment which grew out of the “Dump
Johnson” campaign. In 1972 she became
the Albany party's first elected commit-
teewoman, staging, In fact, the only con:
test for party positions in the city. It was a
post she'd run for eight times, and achieve
four times, In October of 1982, her epithet
changed from “insurgent” to “renegade”
when she cast the lone vote against electing
the hospitalized Mayor Corning for his third
term as committee chair

of the State University in Albany, is to her
the difference between the peace

day in this city.

are out of our depth technologically. We
are not ready yet to deal with that kind of

Asa result, Mrs. Adams is becoming in
volved with a greater variety of activites
than ever before. For the past 14 years, in
the hallway off the kitchen, she has had a
mimeograph machine. Often her activity in
‘a group consisists of little else but running
off their pamphlets, another reason she re:
mains at the center of things. A more of
ficial locus for activist concerns is the Social
Action Center at 221 Central Avenue.
Desks are provided there for a spectrum of
‘activist and international relations groups:
Ground Zero, the Albany Peace and

Energy Counell, the Upper Hudson
Nuclear War Freeze Campaign, political
campaign against conservative senator
Sam Stratton (who recently made the
statement that while he doesn't think freeze
people are ‘under the pay of the Kremlin,”
he does feel that they're badly misinform-
ed, Rezsin Adams wears a button: KGB
Dupe.), and Americans Againt Nuclear
War. Also sharing the space are the Central
‘American Solidarity Alliance, the Knolls
Project (which Is protesting atomic research
and training In West Milton and at General
Electric in Niskayuna), and the U.S.-China
Friendship Association (which from 1974
through 1979 was the only organization to
sponsor trips to the Mainland. Mrs, Adams
Went twice). To help coordinate all these

groups, Mrs, Adams runs off a monthly
calendar of “peace events,” including the
Peace Breakfast held the first Tuesday of
every month. April's list runs to three legal
size pages.

1s, Adams seems a little
M apologetic when it comes to ex
plaining why she has the time to

do what she does, She says i's because
she's had the “financial luxury” of being
able to volunteer, "I'm the beneficiary of a
decadent capitalist society,” she jokes. And
some of what she does Is by way of paying
back that debt, like the SUNYA Blood
Drive, which she coordinates once every
month. "We swam here, and see a lot of
free entertainment. I's a worthy way of

paying it back," she says
When she came to Albany 25 years ago,
they were demolishing neighborhoods to
make room for the mall, and there was no
protest, Now the downtown Is a constant
battleground over preservation and
restoration. And that's the way she likes it
“'m interested in the general empower-
ment of the people,” says Mrs, Adams, "I
refuse to accept the idea that we don't have
power, And remember that I've never been
on a winning side, never backed a can:
didate who won.
ut we should scream all the time about
everything. If power isn't glven to us, we

These days, many people feel that all-
out nuclear was Is not only imminent, but
also unavoidable, Actually, Special
Bulletin portrayed a scenario that Is far
more likely {0 occur. Consider-- a growing
number of countries, many of which are
politically radical, are joining the nuclear
club, Terrorist organizations are not only
sanctioned but encouraged by countries
Iike Libya, Cuba, and Iran, On top of all
this, an atom bomb Is not too difficult to
make, especially when the raw materials
bre available, When all these factors are
considered, i's quite amazing that an Incl:
ent hasn't yet occurred. It seems all too
iikely, alas, that at some point in the not-
too-distant future, a city or even a nation
will be threatened by a nuclear device
somewhere within its border.

it been shot under perfectly clear, sunny

blue skles, it would have been much easier

to see as a pre-made movie, instead of

ealife, Allin all, the production made for

a gritty, real-life feel

While criticizing the nuclear era, the
writers manage to get in their licks at the

TV media. At one point, one of the ter-

torists seizes Levitt's microphone, and
launches into a hilarious but factual tirade
against RBS, especially ridiculing the net-
work's “theme song” for the whole event,
which was played behind a background of
‘a tugboat superimposed over an American
flag. The network even tiles the whole
thing “America Held Hostage”, The pic-
ture switches to an admittedly embarrassed
anchorman, and then, to our delight, the
whole theme song animation flashes onto
the screen,

While that may be funny, what happens
to Charleston Is not. The whole city is
destroyed, rendered uninhabitable for
dozens of years. Thousands are dead, and
thousands more overflow the limited burn
nit space that exists In the entire country,

‘All this from a pipsqueak of a bomb, going

J 'iroduce myself. | am a physics
major here at SUNY at Albany.

Why am | telling you this? It is s0 that you
will know that Iam fully qualified and
understand entirely what I am about to
describe to you, If grades mean anything to
you I have a very good grade point
average. Now that | have my credentials
established let me begin.

Nick Sauers

Understanding that what is to
be presented has undoubtedly been
described to you before. However, when it
Was described | fear that there may have
been some terminology used which you
maynot have understood, Therefore the
{otal gravity of the topic may not have been
appreciated, | also wish to present the
argument in a manner you will not have
seen before with no further delay the
discussion will now begin

Let's play a litle game, You get to play
yourself, Place yourself In any city you like
Now I am going to describe what happens
to you, while you're In this city, as a
nuclear warhead Is detonated, Don't
worry, it will only be a small one, like the
very bomb dropped upon Hiroshima, Best
of all, since this Is a mind game, it won't
quit a bit

won't hurt a bit.

The very first thing you experience
before all else is the roar of the blast. This
roar Is created by an explosive force,
described in military terms, a8 140 kilotons,
What is a klloton? A kiloton is by definition
the explosive force of one thousand tons of
dynamite, Therefore, the initial blast is
equivalent to 140,000. tons of dynamite
being stacked In the city of your choice
and, being exploded simultaneously. You
15 well as myself probably have trouble
conceptualizing this, So, allow me to use a
more artistic description
When that bomb went off the reaction in
itiated a fireball, as It's called by the scien
life community. Whot is a fireball? A
fireball is, without exaggeration, a star. Just
like the one that the Earth is circling. It has
a lifespan less than the time it takes the
flash (o reach your eyes and, for that brief
{ime Is about the size of a baseball

As an immediate reflex you will probably
Jook fo see what the source of the noise is,
Have you ever looked at the sun? If you
have you probably noticed that it is a bit
harsh on your eyes, Looking at the initial
blast would be like looking at the sun from
about a mile or two away. The result being
that you are permanently blinded if you
look at the fireball within the first 30
seconds after the blast, Don't worry about
being blind, you probably won't live much
longer anyway.
Now I want you to choose how far you
are from where the bomb went off. Any
distance between O and 2/2 miles away is
fine, Immediately following the creation of
the star it creates a very hot concussion
Wave of air. Did you choose to be 1/2 mile
away? If you did you were in the vaporiza:
tion radius. What is vaporization? Take an’
jce cube, put it in a dry kettle and set the
keitle on a burner on your stove. You will
see the ice cube melt into water and then
the water will boll away. That, simply.
enough, is vaporization, At the distance
mentioned the same process occurs, In
stead of occuring with water slowly it oc
curs with steel, concrete, and people in the
blink of an eye
Or did you choose anywhere from ¥/2 to
1A miles out? If you did you would
observe the following, The wind blast is stil

Let's play a little game. You get to play yourself. Place
yourself in any city you like. Now I am going to
describe what happens to you, while you're in this city,
as a nuclear warhead is detonated, Don't worry, it will
only be a small one, like the very bomb dropped upon

mable will be ignited, This Includes such}
things as carpets, draperies, anything}
plastic, and again, people.

A\ this point there are two after-ettects
that have a particularly profound effect
which I wish to deseribe.

The first 's called a fire storm, This is
another fancy term for something relatively
simple, At areas about one mile away from!
the blast, while the mushroom cloud is for-|
ming from the collapsing star, a ring of fire
Is created, This fire Is just like the type you
would find burning logs in a fireplace, A big
difference is that this fire is so hot that itis

to one week, in some isolated areas:

The second effect of such a blast is radia
tion, What {s radiation? Well, light, like
sunlight of from a lightbulb, 's radiation.
Before you throw away all of our lamps let
me explain, Light is a very mild form of
radiation, It is not harmful to people and,
in fact, your body needs it to live, The
radiation from a bomb has a lot more
energy and this tends to be harmful and
has some rather subile effects on your
body.

You and | are made up of tiny units call
ed cells, Those ns you could guess are very)
efficient litle units which work together as a
very controlled machine, your body, You
can pleture a cell as a block of Jello. What
the radiation from a bomb does Is like
shooting a 22 calibre bullet into the block
of Jello, This does not happen to all of the
cells in your body, On the contraryt only
happens to a small number. However, this
creates. an imbalance of crippled cells
which is enough fo mess up the complex
machine of your body. The most profound
effect being thot your digestive system will
be useless for eating for about a week or

two, Apart from what you think, you can't
live that long wilhout food, Your immune
system, the system that keeps you from
getting colds and the like, will also be in
poor shape, leaving you suseptable (o any
diseases drifting around. With all of the
bodies there will be plenty of diseases, In
any case, you will be in no shape fo survive
in the hostile environment leit by the blast
Remember, there are no hospitals left and
any doctors are In the same shape you are
She final note on radiation; with today's
moder warheads the radiation will be
around for a few hundred years

The effects described killed 66,000 peo:

ple and wounded 69,000. How many peo-
ple is that? Altogether more than the
population of the city of Albany. All that
caused by an explosion which lasted less
than a minute. This bomb | described was
only 140 kilotons, The bombs used today
by the U.S, and U.S.S.R, are about 1,000
hilotons strong, How do you compair this
with what | described? Multiply all of the

‘A major theatrical festival will be presented throughout the Capital District from Thurs-
‘day, May 5 through Sunday, May 8, Sponsored by a Coalition composed of concern-
ed individuals, area artists and aris organizations, area peace groups, educational and
religious institutions, and other social organizations, the Festival of Arts for Peace will
bring four leading American professional theater companies, prominent cabaret artists,
and the celebrated Bread and Puppet Theater,
‘These companies have received an impressive array of honors. Stll Life, by Emily
Mann and produced by the American Place Theater won the 1980-81 Obie Award ’
Best Play. The Dead End Kids: A History Of Nuclear Power of the Mabou Mines
Company, received five Obie Awards.
Each production offers its special perspective on the theme of peace. Joanne
Akalaitis, in The Dead End Kids uses high comedy and multi-media as it explolts the
Faustus theme through the ages. Bread and Puppet Theater offers a parable about the
apocalypse in “The Story Of One Who Set Out To Study Fear.” Soft Targets by Ben
Maddow and The Talking Band blends traditional and experimental theater to tell the
story of a one-woman war against an irresponsible nuclear bomb manufacturing plant
These productions and other award winning shows will be shown throughout the
week, Sponsored by the Performing Ariists For Nuclear Armament,

In-depth screening

Ta the Editor:

1 would like to thank the ASP for the insi
of April 26, which addressed the lack of security for women.
at SUNYA,

Among other things, the editorial suggested that a pro-
blem that needs attention is the University Escort Service. 1
would like to re-emphasize this and explain what the pro-
blem is.

AAs stated in the front page article of the same issue, men
who apply for work with the Escort Service do not go
through a screening process, Applicants are interviewed
and, because they are part of the work-study program, can
not be turned down unless they are known
“iroublemakers,"’ I would first like to question what con-
stitutes a troublemaker!” and secondly ask how an inter-
Viewer can possibly determine such a thing in $0 short a
time,

A case where this system obviously backfired involves a
close friend of mine, Last year she had the misfortune to
live in the hallway of several disruptive, ‘troublemaking"*
men, ACone point in the semester she was sexually harassed
by one of her inebriated neighbors, She was later shocked

vice,

If these are the kind of men that will be “escorting” me
around campus at night, I think I'd rather walk alone!

What 1 suggest is a thorough in-depth screening process
for every applicant as is necessary for applicants. of other
University Services (for example $-Quad Ambulance, Mid-
dle Barth and Genesis), We wouldn't (rust just anybody
with these important services where somebody's physical,
emotional or sexual health might be in danger, Let's not
trust just anybody with the safety of Women on campus!

Live and let live

To the Editor:

In my two years at this university, I have seen more of
racism than I thought possible, and I have always given my
all to stop it at its sources — ignorance, misunderstanding
and unnecessary fear, But after reading ‘Paul Kruger's'?
appalling letter (April 26), 1 wonder if all my efforts have
been in vain, The election of Harold Washington in
Chicago, the large turnout at last year’s Anti-Apartheid
Rally at Bleecker Stadium, the increased integration of
black and white music on WCDB — all this gave me a fecl-
ing that there was hope, that I might see different races and
cultures begin to accept each other during my lifetime.
Perhaps I might one day see the downfall of South Africa's
unique blend of racism and brutality, Apartheid. Reading
"Mr, Kruger’s' letter, | wonder if I'll see that day,

“Mr. Kruger,” place yourself in South Africa for a mo-
‘ment (although you hardly seem able), You are an official
Colored, less than human, slightly more than animal, You
live in a shack that the government has told you is home, In
order to leave the area, you must have all your papers in
order, as you must in order to work or anything else, This is
stricter than in the Soviet Union, It is more than likely that
you work in the mines, and so far for ten months a year you
live ina worker camp, away from your family, only to earn
a bare subsistence, and only seeing your family two menths
a year. And if you should find the courage to stand up for
your inalienable human rights, you will undoubtably be ar-
Tested and suffer the fate of Stephen Biko — “slipping in
the shower," meaning brutal and deadly beatings. A civiliz-
ed government indeed. Nazi Germany was so civilized,

Now tell me, ‘Mr. Kruger,’’ tell me that this is a life

Facts distorted

To the Editor:

—Jon Drucker

‘A Look at the Palestinian Cause", Glenn
Mones seems to show a great deal of ignorance and,
deliberatedly distorted facts, And just a few points can it
lustrate the degree of distortion, First, “Arab leaders en
couraged much of the local population to leave, telling
them to clear the way for the invading Arab armies, . .'" is
Nonsense. Second, ‘There has never been such a thing as
state of Palestine at any time in history in any place’ and
that “Palestine refers to a geographical location, « .", sug:
Bests that the writer should go and study history before
making this dangerous argument, Third, "King Hussein 0
Hashemite and not an Arab!, reflects the greatest i
orance which the writer is suffering. Fourth, what kind ol
logic is this: to kick out the Palestinians and force the other
Arab countries to accept them; and invite the Jews and
Zionists from all over the world to come under different
slogans. Fifth, the writer speaks lies, and, to say the truth,
he is talking the biggest lies and establishing very untrue
facts and realities, Finally, we can never achieve a peace in.
the Middle Bast and stop the massacres of the innocent
Palestinian refugees as long as we follow this line of argu:
ment

Because the issue of Palestinian refugees bec
fact in the eyes of the world opinion, and be
been on the official records of the U,N., the 2
paganda started to Justify its brutal actions. As far as the
second point is concerned, we should advise the writer to
open the Bible, specifically in the Acts of the Apostles
Where there is reference to the term ‘filistine", It should
also be made known {o the readers as well as the writer that
Banau Hashem or Hashemites is one of the most famous
and noble Arab tribes. If King Hussein or his father Ab-
dullah happened to behave wrongly which, of course, they
did, like other Arab regimes, that is because of the

pressures from the British colonizers, The Palestinians are
fiot rejected by the Arab regimes as much as they are forced
by them to accept the conditions of Israel; the American
and Israeli peace plans, The Palestinians are not allowed to
resent their own peace plan, As far as the time being is
oncerned, the Palestinians are accepting the idea of the
social coexistence with the Jews. But Israel, by supporting
‘ome extremist factions i.e, Abu Nidal, Saas Hadad, and
by applying the traditional policy of "divide and conquer",

Judo and safety

To the Editor: *

I would like to repond to the editorial of 26 April "Be
Aware of reality."" This editorial carries the implication that
help will come miraculously from above or from some
other external source, Look again, . .the answer comes
from within,

As the president of the Albany State Judo Club itis con-
tinually a surprise (o me why more women do not pursue
martial arts, Martial arts were developed for self defense,
Our club enrollment is approximately 20 people, only 1/3
are women, and of that only about 1/2 ever stay with it for
4 full semester, Rare Is the femiale in judo that continues
‘onward, Yet, the Feminist Alliance can boast ''50 people,
mostly Women’ turning out for a rally against rape on cam~
pus, Sure martial arts involve sweating, a little physical ex-
ertion and dedication (is being raped a worse price to pay?)

If the university were (o double the number of blue light
smergency phones. . «It would not stop a rape, The phones
Allow a person to report a rape (after the fact), You could
double the university police and student patrols and in-
evitable someone will still be raped, What happens, whe
with all this security on campus you find yourself not on
campus?

If women truly want to prevent rape they must be able to
stop the rapist. Improved safely measures and external en-
forcement will only serve to reduce the rate of crime, But is
that any consolation if the one person raped annually. . is
you?

Freedom of ideas

To the Editor:

Yom Hashoa (Holocaust Remembrance Day) was
‘observed last week. It is a day to remember those who
perished In the Holocuast and (o reaffirm that We will not
forget the lessons that terrible event has taught us, One
such lesson is the importance of protecting basic human
rights.

The rights to study ideas and (o listen to and ask ques-

the foundation of both Jewish beliefs
systems, It 1s, therefore, sad to see that
When a distinguished Israeli professor and retired Colonel,
Meir Pa'il, comes {0 speak on the SUNY-Albany campus
the posters publicizing his appearance are torn down and
replaced,

‘On early Sunday, April 17th, 250 posters were placed
around campus, By the time of the campus Yom Hashoa
memorial service that evening, most of the posters w
removed and replaced by another organization, On the next
day another 250 posters were placed around campus and
again removed by others,

Behavior like tearing down posters is an affront ro both
Jewish and democratic values and is most disturbing when
perpetrated by those Who profess to be defenders off the
Jewish faith, Depriving others of the right to study, listen
and inquire just because one disagrees with the point of
view being offered is contrary to the very core of Jewish
teachings,

A five national faculty and student organizations recent-
ly wrote in response to similar campus actions elsewhere,
"Unless there is freedom to speak and to teach, even fo}
those with Whom we Gifer on fundamental and unlest
there is freedom for all f0 listen and to learn, there can be
no true college or university no matter how fine the
buildings or modern the equipment.’ 1 would add that
Judaism is more than wearing a yamulke or keeping kosher
it is a way of life that respects other's right to study, listen
and inquire, Lest we forget,

— Ed Marussich

Arab-Jewish sponsored debate

<3
Palestinian people should be placed
squarely on the Palestinian leader-
ship. “No Palestinian leader in 70
Years has had the courage to step
forward and act to compromise,"”
he asserted

Schoenman disputed the idea of
Israeli willingness to. compromise.
“There isn’t a scintilla of evidence
to suggest that any Zionist would
allow any kind of partition," he
said. “The Zionists call for some
kind of entity but not a state," he
Said, ‘with leaders acceptable to
Israel and Israeli military posts for
30 years. What people would accept
terms like that in their own land?"”

Quoting extensively from
documents he said were made by
Prominent Zionist and Israeli

leaders, Schoenman accused
Zionists of openly collaborating,
with the Nazi regime of the 1930s,
‘According to Schoenman, the na-
tional military organization, the
defensive arm of the Jewish people
in Palestine, openly stated that a
"New Order in Europe was ci

patible with the true national
aspirations of Jews."

Following statements and
responses by both speakers, the

floor was opened to questions. At
that point the fragile atmosphere of
cordiality broke down as hostile
questions were fired at both
speakers, Following one hostile ex-
change between Goldberg and an
Arab, student, on the status of
Palestinians under Israeli occupa-
tion, the debate ended. o

At the same time, congressional
‘committees approved bills that, if
approved by the full House and
Senate, would force foreign
students to return home for two
years before becoming eligible to
apply for permanent U.S, citizen-

Graham says the bills are
necessary to ‘deter’ foreign
students whose ‘whole intent Is
never to go back home."*

But Carole Shaffer, international
student advisor at the University of
San Francisco, believes Congress is
Irying to keep out foreign students
to save jobs for Americans,

“It is our feeling that this legisla-
tion is being proposed without pro-

She insists congressional spon-
sors of the bill are using ‘‘old and

now here are trying to gain perma-

Stewart says only about 15 per-

t's not a very remarkable
figure," she notes,

But the House Subcommittee on
Immigration did pass an amend-
ment that would exempt about 4500
foreigners who apply for certain
college jobs — engineering teaching
positions in particular — from the
relurn-home requirement,

No further congressional action
{s needed to enforce the INS’ new
rule that will put a definite limit on
the foreigners’ visas,

Congress passed the law making
the change possible in 1981, but the
INS delayed putting the change into
effect.

Since then ‘'a few bad people in
the barrel have spoiled the batch,"”
Shaffer says, Some foreign students
have managed to stay on in this
country for up to nine years,

Until now, foreign student visas
were good for ‘duration of
status,"" meaning they lasted as long
as the student remained a student
and didn’t violate any laws.

‘As of August, however, the
government will issue only visas
that have a ‘date certain’” expira-
tion, Freshmen entering in 1983, for
‘example, will get visas that expire in
1987,

Under the new rules, the INS will
also need to know the student's ma-
jor, if the student changes majors,
and if the student transfers schools,
adds INS examiner Joe Cuddihy.

Stewart hopes “there will be
some exceptions"? granted, especial-
ly for foreign students afraid to
return home for political reasons.

In any case, students will have to
be more vigilant in maintaining
their statuses, Shaffer says. They're
not off to a good start, ‘The ma
jority 1 deal with are not strongly

Giant Tuggle

East Rutherford, N.J.
(AP) Johin Tugele, a running back at the
University of California, says the New York
Giants had a tough time reaching him g
they made him the last selection in the
tional Football League draft

1 gave up all inclination of being drafted
afer the 10th round passed. 1 got tired of
waiting by the phone,” Tuggle said Wednes-
day from his home in Moraga, Cal

So Tuggle went to visit a friend and was
trailed by a scout for the Seattle Seahawks,
who told Tuggle he was going to sign him as a
free agent if he wasn't drafted.

“The scout was with me when I got the call
that 1 was drafted,"* said Tuggle, ‘1 guess
I'm a celebrity, The way people think, I guess
they usually remember the first player taken
inthe draft and the last,"”

Tuggle, a four-year starter at California,
was the 335th player taken in the 12-round
marathon draft that began Tuesday at 8:03
a.m, and ended at 2 a.m. Wednesday, when
he was taken

“T thought I'd go a lot higher, but 1 was
just happy to be drafted,"” said

The Special Olympics was created and
sponsored by the Joseph P. Kennedy Jr.
Foundation and is dedicated to providing
sports training and athletic competition op:
portunities 0 mentally retarded individuals
around the world,

Millar said that the training clubs are ex
panding all the time, “The need and want is
there with the athletes but we need the man:
power," she added,

The event will start at 8:30 a.m, and will

Elway looks to the future

San Jose, Ca.
(AP) John Elway is an oil well waiting to be
lapped, He is the mother lode of a gold mine
whose rich vein is still to be assessed. He is
America’s new sports superstar who has yet
{o complete a forward pass or hit a home run
on a bigtime professional stage

Yet, there he sits in San Jose, Calif., atop a
Potential mountain of federal notes, waiting
to sce whose millions—those of the Yankees’
impulsive George Steinbrenner or some pro
football club hungering for a franchise saver
= will purchase his relatively untested skills

No single individual in our memory has
commanded such attention at such an carly
stage in his career as this 6-foot-4, 202-pound
passing wizard out of Stanford University,
picked No, 1 in Tuesday's National Football
League draft.

As Elway, in the driver's seat, plays one
against the other, the sports world around
him wonders and, in the case of his future
peers, fumes.

“Where in the hell does he come off so
great?"* growls Terry, Bradshaw, a 13-year
NFL veteran who has led the Pittsburgh
Steelers (o four Super Bow! championships.

Commenting on Elway's reluctance to play
With the cellar-dwelling Baltimore Colts, who
chose him in the NFL draft, and reports that
Elway's football asking price is $7 million for
five years, Bradshaw, a $300,000 quaterback,

adds

“He says he wants to play on the West
Coast, then don't play, Let him play
baseball.”

Baseball is Elway's alternative if Baltimore
doesn't strike a deal to his satisfaction, Stein-
brenner is waiting in the wings, with his check
book open, ready to give the kid a five-year
contract with an escape clause if he's not
happy,

Steinbrenner supposedly is offering the
youngster $1 million a year for the first two
years, all of which probably would be spent
in the minors

Few figure the boss, with all his brashness
and eccentricities, could be that stupid,

Men’s track team competes in Colgate relays

By Tom Kacandes
IDITORIAL ASSISTANT

The Albany State men’s track and field
team traveled {0 Hamilton, N.Y. for the
highly competitive Colgate Relays. last
Wednesday. There were twelve teams in at-
tendance, including Cornell and Syracuse,
‘but no team scoring in the meet, Said Dane
captain Nick Sullivan, "Colgate is @ fun
meet, where we get to run non-standard
relays with no team competition, just
relays,""

The Danes entered a team in every relay, as
well as individual competitors in the field
events. Prominent among the individuals
was thrower Bill Nason, who took third in
the shot put, Nason’s toss of 15.12 meters
was only a centimeter behind second, Said
Nason,‘'It was a good throw, but I really
hate getting beat like that."

In the triple jump, captain Paul Mance hit
13.51 meters, ‘That's a good jump, but my
goal is the Nationals and it doesn’t help me
there."’ Assistant coach Tim Gunther also
competed in the triple and long jump. His
jump of 6,37 meters in the long jump was
very respectable,

On the track, the C 's distance medley
relay team (800, 400, 1200, 1600 meter
Tony Rizzo, Scott Sachs, Nick Sullivas
Jim Erwin took sixth place overall, Their
lime of 10:30.3 was a season best

The 4x100-meter relay also ran a season
best time. The team of Mike Riggins, Pat
Saccocio, Sachs, and John Reilly took fourth
place with their time of 43.9 seconds
In a very fast, very close race, the 4x200
5, Reilly, Sachs, and Eric
jewton was within tenths of a second of the
Colgate Relays record in that event of 1:29.9
set in 1980, The 1983 squad was timed at
1;30.6, but got only third for their efforts

Allin all, the day had gone well for Albany

teams, but the track got hot when the
4x800-meter relay was run. Like the distance
medley relay, the 4x800 relay is run only in-
doors, so it had been a long time since this
team had run together. The team of Rizzo,
Winston Johnson, Noel Woodburn, and Er-
win ran their best time by eight full seconds
for third place honors, In the third leg, Noel
Woodburn passed three runners running a
hot 1:56.2 split in the process. Erwin got the
baton tied for fourth and ran his fastest 800
by (wo seconds to pass the Rochester In-
stitute of Technology anchor and take third
place, The relay's official time was 7:55.8

The sprint mediey relay (200, 200, 400,
800) is run only at special relay meets like the
Colgate Relays, but the Albany team of Rell-
ly, Andy Callari, Paul Fauty, and) Tom
Kacandes had a great race finishing fourth
overall, Fauty's personal best 400 split of
51,0 seconds helped the team to their quick
3:39 relay time.

The outstanding performance of the day
was that of the Albany 4x400-meter relay
squad. The team of Riggins, Saccocio,
Woodburn, and Newton dusted the competi
tion in their first place finish. Riggins cruised
with the fast crowd of lead runners in third,
then Saccocio, muscled his way to the front
of the contenders, handing off to Woodburn,
who doesn't usually run the 400, but was able
(0 hold Albany's narrow lead, Newton took
the baton and lew through his anchor leg in
49.5 seconds leaving the Colgate anchor at a
few yards as he hit the tape, The relay’s of
ficial time of 3:19.5 is only two seconds from
National qualifying mark and Albany's

pressure," said head coach Bob Munsey
