“While all of us are showing unusual amounts of pa-
tiende in awaiting the end to the inconveniences caused
by our relocation on the new campus, there is @ cer-
tain group of students who will be tested still further.
and to a greater extent than the restof us. This group
is our school’s wrestling squads.

These men must travel daily down to. Milne school

for two to three hours of

intense practice, and then

they must shower-up, catch a late dinner, and finally
return to the dorm for the evening’s work. But the
hardest thing or these men to accept is not so much
the hardship of training as is the purpose for which

they work so hard,

Our school does not support its wrestling team to
any appreciable degree. Last year some matches
were moderately attended largely because certain fans
were willing to delay returning to the dorms after
school to watch the team perform, We have our doubts
about any self-sacrifice being exhibited this year.

‘The Dane wrestling team has an abundance of talent
this year and should register a very successful sea
gon, It is a pity that so few people will avail them-
selves to see the squad in action,

We are not calling for anyone to push aside his self-
ish ways and actively support these men, We are
merely .expressing our respect for these dedicated
athletes and pledging our utmost support toward their

efforts.

A. A. Board has just announced that it will provide
bus service to and from Hudson Valley Community
College for all 10 of State’s home basketball games.
The Board will decide today as to the number of
busses to be made available and the schedule of ar-
rival and departure. The schedule will be posted after

Thanksgiving.

We are confident right now that no one will be com-
pletely pleased with the decisions made on this mat-
ter. We just hope that the Board considers the most
good for the largest number in decidingon this matter.

Sunday’s playoff game between Potter Club and
Atpha Pi Alpha fraternities for the AMIA League I
championship has all the makings of being one of the
greatest games ever played in the league. In their
previous two encounters, the two teams split closely
contested games, APA is eager to score its first
championship triumph while Potter is out to regain

its title, lost last season.

The game will begin at 2 p.m. down on the atnieuc
field, This one’s for all the marbles, and don’t you

think both teams don’t know it,

=

THE GREAT DANES of Albany State will once again toke to the hardcourt to try to keep its win-
ning record intact. Under Doc Savers, the team has yet to havea losing year. The Danes open

against Central Conn, on Dec. 1.

Critics have lavished Woods with
much praise, Leonard Feather,
author of the “Encyclopedia of
Jazz,” says Woods “plays with soul,
fire, melodic ingenuity and complete
command,!”

The Associate Editor of “Down
Beat,” Dan Morgenstern, remarks
that “all his solos are remarkably
well-structured statements, played
with the assurance and control of a
master instrumentalist, yet retain=
ing the fire and conviction of his
earlier work.”

been playing lead alto in the score
for the movie “Alfie.” Michael
Zwerin, Jazz columnist of the “Vil-
lage Voice,” in reviewing the score
sald "Phil Woods lead alto is im=
Peccable,”

Intestinal Viral Infection
Strikes Waterbury Hall

‘The confusion and questions re»
sulting from the disease which
struck residents of the Downtown
Campus were dispelled by President
Collins at the Monday press confer=
ence when he stated the cause of
{lines had been identified as viral
intestinal infection,

The ‘plague’ that struck Water=
bury Hall on the inorning of Nov, 22
turned out to be a viral disease,
However, it was serious enough to
force the hall to be closed,

At 4:30 am, of that morning, all
the residents of Waterbury received
notices Informing them Dr, Janet
Hood, director of health service, had

ordered the hall closed, This notice
also contained instructions from Dr,
Hood, telling students who had not
yet become sick to leave as soon as.
Possible,

Worn Drivers

‘The doctor also warned them that
if going by car, they should have
more than one driver since the virus
strikes suddenly, leaving one too {11
to drive,

On the same day, health officials
came to inspect the kitchen, As far
as Waterbury Hall Director James
Hayes knows, nothing was found
wrong with the food, thereby ellm=
inating the possibilities of food
polsoning,

Of all the
Hayos ostimates

nts of Waterbury,
bout 100 studants
alone were sick by early Tuesday
morning. In addition, some students
contracted the disease after they
oft, bringing the total to over 100,

Amoug the residents who caught
the plague’? was Herb Hersch, who
complained there were tot enough
people to care for those who were
sick, He was also wondering what
would have happened 1f it had been a
serious disease,

Longer Vacation

iis roommate Gary Weinberger
could only say The resutts of this
virus were lke those of a beer
party, only there was none that
Monday night," Those students who
did not get sick received an extra
day and a half of vacation,

One such student, Mike Egleston,
sald that because of the virus he
gained an extra two days for drinks
Ang back home in Amsterdam, When
‘everyone returned on Sunday, the

‘plague’ was the major tople of
conversation, Some still insisted it

Student Problem

To Be Explored
By Questionnaire

Student problems is the main,
the only, interest of a recently or
ganized ‘group, Mark Zeek and
John Fleitman, students, have joined
Christos Apostle of the sociology
department to attempt to solve or
alleviate problems which may be
plaguing students.

A clinic and a questionnaire will
be the major means of solution, Any
student with a problem may obtain
@ questionnaire beginning Tuesday
from Mark Zeek at 472-8744, Flelt-
man at 472-5255 in Waterbury Hall,
or Apostle in SS 374,

After filling out the questionnaire,
students may obtain personal guld~
ance from the group or an imper-
sonal response depending upon the
individual’s wish. There will be a
$1,00 fee for the solution of the
problem,

The group emphasizes the pro~
fessional relationship which will be
maintained as well as a high degree
of integrity to be employed in study
ing these problems in the area of
collegiate survival.

‘These arrests wore made despite
the tact that the Office of the State’s
Attorney General had informed the
Plckets that their action, inasmuch
as it did not constitute partisan po-
Utteal behavior, was unquestionably
legal provided ‘access to the polls
was in no way obstructed (as it was
not),

‘The seventeen men in this group
were subjected to the indignity of
handcutting and to hours of detention
in jail cells, some extremely dirty,
All twenty were then brought before
Judge Segal who, although the
charges had been withdrawn by the
Police, took it upon himself to
prove ‘them in severe language,

We can discover no justification
whatever either for the initial arrest
or for Judge Segal’s subsequent a
sumption of the guilt of the twenty,
The charge that they were in an

way intimtdating the voters
appears to be totally without founda~
tlon,

We feel, therefore, that the auth=
orities responsible for these actions
have a definite obligation to the
community to explain why they oc~
curred, and, if no reasonable justi-
fication canbe offered (and we cannot
concelve of what this could be), then
to make public aplogy for this repre~
hensible violation of civil liberties.

Furthermore, we feel that every
trace of this unjust arrest must be
expunged from the records of the
twenty, It would be unforgivenble if
any member of the group at any
time falled to get a Job or suffered
some other ill-effect because this
absurd arrest was on his record,

Acting, Directing Present Problems
Hard Work, Nightly Rehearsals

by Ed Longe

A play is a collage, that is, it is an
eclectic assortment of many dramatic
factors, both glamorous and for the
most part, unglamorous, Acting and di-
recting are probably most often con-
sidered as the glamorous aspects. As
right or incorrect as this may be, hard
and long-‘work is not unknown to the
people working these areas.

If reading, rereading and rereading a
script is considered glamorous, then the
most elementary aspectsof directing are
just that, If the hours which are spent
planning blocking, casting, andhammer-
ing out details with technical personnel
are considered glamorous then the basic

foundations of direction are just that.
If hours of nightly rehearsal for sev~

eral weeks, and studying a script in
‘spare!’ time, and building a character
are ‘considered glamorous, then acting
and directing are glamorous.

If, after weeks of hard work, two
minutes of applause is considered glam-
orous, and is supposed to make all that
has past worth the work, then acting and
directing are glamorous. Is it glamor-
ous? No, but some people love it anyway,
and an example of these people are the

director and cast of THE MEMORAN-

aA MEMORANDUM isa play strongly
dependent on characterization for much
of its humor, Herein lies one of the prob-
lems encountered by the cast and direc-
tor of the show. Often, a play’s humor is
more inherent in the lines and action
than: it is in MEMORANDUM; however
in this play much of the humor comes
from: the audience’s enjoyment of the
humorous types of characters: the jet
set, the mod, the former phys. ed, ma-

jor and others.

MEMORANDUM also introduces ano-
ther problem to both actor and director,
The play is concerned with an artificial
language which had to be learned so that
when actors onversed in it, it would
seem natural and not stilted. This was a
primary factor since the play’s main
theme is concerned with this language.

Rehearsals also presented a problem
since several members of the cast of
MEMORANDUM were also actors in the
University’s last show, LYSISTRATRA,
and both plays were in rehearsal at the
same time, This forced afternoon re-
hearsals, and double time work on the
part of actors.

Set, Sound Staging Create Magic
Expected In Dramatic Production

by John G. Deanehan

A quick glance at the University Calendar of Events,
even by the most casual observer, would be enough
to see that another University Theatre production,
“The Memorandum,” is not far off, Perhaps this same
observer, remembering the excitement of the last of-
fering will consider putting aside a reservation for

one of the nights between D
Memorandum

s ‘The
It is hoped that on the
appointed night our theatre
goer will arrive, be
amused, and be drawn into
the magical existence that
only the live theatre can
offer,

‘Much has been done, just in the
technical aspects of the production
of this English language premier
to make this evening at the theatre
rewarding and highly eutertaining,
Planning for anything as complex
as the running of “The Memoran-
dum,” even though it 1s considered
a fairly simple show technically, had
to begin months ago,

Design Concept
First began the design concept
planning with Ted Glazer of theatre
graphics and the technical director,
Robert Donnelly both conferring with
Jarka M, Burlan, the director of
the’ production, The overall color
scheme of blue-grey was chosen
and the publicity and program for-
mat was designed and printe
‘While this was being completed
Donnelly worked out the set design
and drafted the many sets of plans
necessary for its construction,
Again there were conferences with
both the director and with Jerome
Hanley, the lighting director.
Hanley, like Donnelly, came toState
from Dartmouth,

Building, Painting
After planning came the actual
building and painting of the set.
Since the play 1s about the pitfalls
of bureaucracy and takes place in
an office, the design idea was to give
the office an ‘institutional’? look,
‘The result is something that is very
much like early Montgomery Ward.
‘The problem of finding the insti-
tutional looking furniture was simply
resolved by a quick look around the
old campus, Anything that could not
be found had to be bullt, and many of
the pleces that were available had to
be repaired before they were serv=
iceable for use on the stage.

Space Problem

The problem of space has been a
bother, as always, in the Richard~
son Studio Theatre, There is so little
room to the sides and behind the
acting area that set changing plans
remind one of a siding square block

. 6 and 17 that Vaclav
is being presented,

pozzle, The limited space above the
stage ts a factor that the lightingde~
signer must work around also,

‘The lighting design follows the
“4nstitutional look” {dea with bright
overhead lighting to reinforce the
six white overhead lamp globes
which are hung inanoffice-like man~
ner above the stage, In order to
properly light the Richardson Studio
‘Theatre it is necessary to mount
instruments above the audience.

While not a problem, the fact that
the audience can see these light
sources detracts from the effective~
ness of the theatre in many plays.
In any case it cannot be avoided,
Once the lights are set and are
plugged into the contro! panel the
stage 1s ready.

Technical Weekend

Now the problem at hand is the

“echnical weekend’*, All the fin-

ishing touches to the set must be

completed and the technical run-

through and dress rehearsals fol
low, Next the performance,

Time as well as planning is re~
quired to carry out all of these in-
volved tasks. The directors and
assistants work as much as 60 to
100 hours a week before a perfor-
‘mance, The Stagecraft crew and the
volunteers are to be commended for
their fine work als

Chuck Bartlett, Robert Cutty, and
Mort Hess are the leading actors
in the Czechoslovakian play “The
Memorandum’? which is in its final
week of rehearsals, All consider
the progress made in rehearsal to
indicate a polished performance,

Chuck Bartlett feels that it is a
fascinating play and “a profitabl
experience for anyone to see.” The

* magnitude of his part makes it the

most difficult role he has ever
played, Paradox and contradiction
appear in the Character Gross that
Chuck portrays,

Chuck is a drama major and has
acted in “Of Mice and Men,” “Le
Misanthrope,” ‘Lysistrata’ and
several other plays,

depth and maturity on the part of
the audience,

New Official Language Adopted
To Improve Communications

by Jacqui

“Abagan fajfor? “La-
gorax Nagyp!’” **Gun snoj-
vep?”” “Snojvep yj!"?

No, it’s not Pig Latin,
nor is it a Zwaheli dialect,
and it certainly isn’t the
latest teenybop fad.

It is, however, a new of-
ficial language that the ad-
ministration is introducing
into our University on Dec,
6, Its purpose is to make
official communication
more exact and technical.

Keeping up with the
times? Well, we are living
in the age of computers
and considering that we
have recently experienced
an electronic concert spon-
sored by the Music De-
partment, it is rather com-
plimentary that the drama-
ties department is intro-
ducing a scientific lan-
guage.

Just exactly who knows
Ptydepe? Only the cast of
‘“‘Memorandum” and Dr,
Burian, its director, And
just what is their opinion
of Ptydepe?

According to Professor
Fisher (played by Robert

e Berger
Cutty), the esteemed Doc-
tor of Ptydepe: ‘t is cer-
tainly frnygko jefr dabux
altep dy savarub goz tex-
eres!”

And how are its students
reacting to it?

Prof, Fisher: Why don’t
we ask Tensil, my Ptydepe
Protige. Tensil?

Tensil; I am very proud
to be one of the first stu-
dents to master the lan-
guage.
Unfortunately, everyone
does not have so favorable
an opinion of Ptydepe as do
Dr, Fisher and Tensil.

Mr. Gross (played by
Chuck Bartlett), as man-
aging director would you
care to make a statement
concerning the introduction
of this new official lan-
guage.

Mr, Gross; I am a hu-
manist and as a humanist
I am opposed to the intro-
duction of any artificial
tongue. What do I think of
Ptydepe? What do I think
of Ptydepe? ..., Gotrech!

I beg your pardon!

Old Slovak

by John G.
““Yhe Memorandum,

Deanehen

by Vaclav Havel, is a repre-

sentative of a new source of dramatic writing for the
American theatre, The English language premiere
performance by the University Theatre brings the
drama of Communist’Czechoslovakia to an American
audience which has had little past experience with

plays from this area.

In the past the drama of
Slovakian Europe, with the
exception of Russia, has
been of little interest to the
West, But today a new and
exciting dramatic formhas
replaced the communist in-
spired Social Realism of
the 1950's.

This 1s a drama of social com=
ment and reform through anology by
satire, “The Memorandum’? is of
this school of drama and, according
to Jarka M, Burian, the play's direc~
tor, one of the best of the new
Czechoslovakian plays of last
season.

The play speaks out against the
tendency of a very highly bureau-
cratic organization to allow the de~
humanization of its members. In-
directly the author shows how the
very structure of the organization
allows {ts members to accept the
fact that a few, perhaps the wrong
few, are able ‘to gain its control,

The Communist hold over dra-
matic literature in Czechoslovakia
has lessened, but not yet so much
that such criticisms could be so
openly stated, Thus the analogy of
the office is used,

Analysis: Riots And Rioters

Campus And Slum Riots tommaed

by Peter Pollak

Ih the academic community of this
country there are many who accept
student riots as a product of spring
fever and youthful naivete, while
the same time they condemn th
riots in the slums and support the
Congressional slow down on civil
rights legislation,

However, rioting on campus and
rioting in’ the ghetto have many
parallel characteristics worth ex-
amining.

‘Two prevalent attitudes taken by
public critiques towards rioting are
that they are the result of minor
grievances and that they are a way
of letting out tensions. Some minor
grievances attributed to students
are college housing and hours regu
ations, food, and lack of recrea~
tonal facilities,

On the grievances in the ghettos,
some people mention the summer
heat without adequate recreational
areas for the slum youth,

Letting Out Tensions

That riots are a way of letting out
tensions has a great deal of validity
in efther case, However, those who
bring up this point often have an un~
realistic view of the nature of the
rioting.

Letting out tensions by taking a
long walk, playing football, or having
a few beers 1s quite different from
the violent, uncontrollable attack on
property and human life that takes
place in a riot.

‘The distinguishing factor in artot
4s the desperation of the rioter - the
abandon of reason and concern. Stu-
deat and slum rioters show indiffer-
ence to property and human life and
they rtot in disobedience of police
and administrators, alike.

Explode Against Demonds
Both groups often explode against
some absurd demand by the local
power structure, Student rlots often
occur during tho thine when an ab=
surd importance {s placed on final
exams,

And’ ghetto riots often explode
against the absurd Injunction of a
mayor Celling the people to use nor=
mal procedures to protest the police
shooting of a car thief suspect,

Other common characteristics
can be drawn between the ribters
and the power structure they seem
to be rioting against, Students aro
often chided by deans and professors
for apathy towards the values that
are supposed to play an important
art in thelr future life, such as

and

A similar attitude of apathy is
Fepotted aboot the poor ty, thelr
soctal workers, teachers, and min-
isters, The aly two areas about
which students and the poor are not
always apathetic are their social life
and a chance for financial gain,

Outside Groups

Another characteristic of the so-
clety of rioters is the outside com-
mitment of small groups which are
attracted to or form organizations
highly critical of the power struc~
ture. These fow often have an al-
most religious commitment to an
ethical, selfless way of life in re
bellion’ to the values of the society.
In the civil rights marches several
summers ago, the two groups ac-
tually collesced in thelr demand for
true brotherhood,

‘The parallels between rioting in
Chicago's South Side and rioting at
Michigan State or Berkeley point out
the weakness of the attempt to dis-
miss elther as spring (or summer)
fover.

d they both indicate a mean-
Ingless experience for a large num-
ber of people in either environment,
They indicate a loss of identity with
the goals and methods of the society
whose rules they must obey.

And the riots indicate the desper-
ation of the individual in trying to
find a personal expression of his
situation,

Riots Handled Differently
Unfortunately the main differ=
ences in the riots is the manner in
which they are handled, College ad~
ministrations only bring in the police
when absolutely necessary, and then
water hoses and threats of suspen~
slons are used’to quell the students,
In the slums, police armed with
clubs, tear gas, and dogs arrive on
the scene within ininutes with armed
national guardsmen ~ on the way -
and the rioters are beaton Into sub-
mission,

There is also a difference in the
aftermath of the riot, On Campus
the students are given new oppor-
tunities to express their complaints
to the faculty and administration,

Few Receive Punishments

Usually because of the large num-
ber of offenders, very few receive
Punishments, In the slum the rioters
are eliminated from ald from pov-
erty programs, They are given po-
Ice records with the result that they
cannot get jobs, They are denied
channels to the local white
Ushment to correct slum conditions
and they are driven further into
desperation,

RayView of Sports
by Rey MeCloet oy

Last night our hoopsters opened their 1966-7 cam-
paign with an away contest with Central Connecticut
College. Although the results were not available at
publication time, using our brand new crystal ball
(the soccer season saw the demise of ourold one,). we
gee the Danes in bad shape for this game, in partiou-
lar, and for the entire season as well.

And it’s a real shame, a damn shame. Last year’s
squad registered what we called a ‘‘miracle season,’?
winning 13 games against 9 setbacks with a team of
veritable pygmies and ‘inexperienced players, This
year we looked forward to the addition of several key
sophs from last year’s frosh team to an experienced
and far stronger state squad with an outstanding sea-
gon in the offing. Needless to say, we’re disappointed
at the turnabout of affairs,

This year’s team boasts the addition of only two
sophs from last year’s yearlings, only one transfer
student, who just became eligible, and that’s it. The
squad, at full strength, has only 9 members, and over
a 21 game schedule, that’s just not enough, Injuries
have beset the team already, andasitis with injuries,
they usually multiply as the season progresses, We
suggest that “Doo” Sauers wear playing shorts under
his suit pants,

The Dane hoopsters are without last year’s leading
scorer. Just recently they found out they would have
to do without the team’s best playmaker and clutch
shooter, Only two frosh chose to play varsity ball this
season. The rationalization of this dilemma is basic--
in fact, it?s academic, Our athletes are simply find-
ing it too hard--or, tragically, too costly--to play
intercollegiate sports, We say sports because the
same is true in virtually every other sporton campus.

What's the solution? We certainly don’t know, but
if we did, we’d hold out for the highest bid from
coaches around the country, It’s an old story with a
new twist, Instead of having the good-looking football
player with a minus IQ, we’re finding men capable of
doing college work incapable of fitting sports into their
academic life. Or, even sadder, those who unsuccess~
fully try to,

We are fully certain college academic standards
are not going to slacken, We are equally sure sports
do have a place in college. So all we can really do is
lament the situation, probe for a solution, and keep
our fingers crossed, And one thing more.

We can even better appreciate those gifted few
athletes who have succeeded in incorporating a sport
with their academic studies, We can better realize
how much sacrifice and hard work these men exhibit
in doing this. We can laud even louder the efforts of
gur modern day athlete-scholar, What else can we

Potter Playoff Triumph
llth In Last 12 Years

by Glenn Sapir

Potter Club ran away with the
AMIA League I football champion-
ship when it soundly defeated Alpha
Pi Alpha, 19-6, on Nov, 20, The
win for Potter clinched its eleventh
title in twelve years,

Both Potter and APA went into the
game with identical 7-1 records,

ses coming at each
others hands, Potter's victory the
we forced the extra game
to decide the champion.

The first big break of the game
went to Potter when Mike Shetnvold
recovered an APA fumble on the
opening kickoff, Potter took quick
advantage of the fumble recovery
when quarterback Jim Curley ran
around end for the touchdown gallop.
The point after attempt was unsuc~
cessful, thus Potter held a six point
lead, APA's first drive took them

all the way to the Potter three-inch
line where the tough EEP defense
dug in and prevented any further
advancement. The APA defense
proved Just as tough as Potter was
forced to punt from deep in their
own territory.

With APA in possession of the
ball again, their second drive took
them all the way in for the score,
‘The touchdown came when allstar
quarterback Ray Clanfrini hit John
Hotaling for APA's only score of
the game. The tle was short lived
as the EEPs sustained a fifty yard
scoring drive, climaxed by Curley’s
touchdown pass to Bob Savickl, to
give Potter a six point lead at the
halt,

Potter put the game on ice when
allstar flankerback Ray McCloat
grabbed a fifty yard scoring bomb
and Al Babcock made good on the
extra point to clinch the win,

EEP'S QUARTERBACK JIM CURLEY sneaks through the APA
line for a short gain and first down in the championship game
played last week. Potter downed APA, 19-6, to win its eleventh
championship in the past twelve years.

College Bowl
Coaches Chosen

‘Two of the four Line Coaches
needed to drill the University's
College Bow! team have been named,
They are Mr, Willlam Kraus, 9
methods teacher in English at the
Milne School, and Mr, Earl Dres=
sler, vice president for research,
Mr, Dressler will coach the team
tn sctence,

However, coaches are
the areas of Fino A
‘hi, tin Uxparea ven
of twelve to fifteen students to work
with, and from this group will come
the ‘five members of the team.

Gunn was pleased with the num=
ber of students volunteering, but
mentioned that members of Ac
demic Affairs Commission hi
been asking department heads for
recommendations of other students,

Within the next few days, Gunn
plans to visit the coaches of the
Russell Sage and RPI College Bowl

to get some ideas for the

‘ation of the team, He feels
that it 1s impossible to stuff a head
with knowledge, so the coaches will
concentrate instead on bringing the
knowledge out.

"The studio to be used for drills
1s now in preparation, and Gunn
hopes to have everything ready by
the iniddle of the month, This will
give him about four weeks in which
to prepare, including Christmas va~
cation and exam week, Gunn will
leave it up to the team whether or
not to practice over Christmas,

Gunn does not intend to use the
relative short preparation time as
a potential alibi, because he be-
Heves that there’ ts a huge element
of luck involved with the type of
questions asked on a particular
night,

Valliation, ant use of the Residence
Hall Evaluation Form (printed at
loft), At the end of the academic
year, oach Resident Assistant 1s
Fequired to fll out this form on
students In dorm residences

"The Resident Assistant then ro~
views the evaluation form with the
Residence Director; checks placed
in elthor “above” or below" are
questioned and after agreement has
boon roached by both, the form Is
placed n the student's permanent
residence file,

‘The forms are used primarily to
ald the University Placement Serv
ico in writing recommendations to

prospective omployor's.
Pen an oarilor Intorviow, Miss
Norman Edsall, Dean of Residence,
stated that when the placoment of-
fice writes recommendativns, the
hogative qualitios of tho studonts
fare glossed over and tho positive
qualities are emphasized,

In the majority of cases, the sttl-
dent never seos the completed form,
and 1s dented access to tHe form
once It 18 filed.

‘The greatast volume of discus-
sion concerned the form's validity,
and whether R,A,'s have enough
training tn personality and psychole
ogy to make a valid evaluation, and
whether they are qualified (o deter
mine a students emotional balance,
maturity, and sense of responsle
bility.

ation Form

‘Yhe discussion group agreed that
tho present form 1s ambiguous and
inadequate, Five alternate sugges~
tlons were propose

1, Abolish the form entirely,

Have any type of evaluation
optional to the student,

Havo the RyA, write an essay
fon euch student in place of the
chock sheets

4, Have both R.A, and student fit
out duplicate forms independently
of one another,

5, Have the R.A, and the student
111 out the form jointly,
