A rash of early morning burglaries,
coupled with vandalism, harrassment
and assault has left many Alumni Quad
residents thinking twice about safety
precautions and the adequacy of the
protection given them.

Six burglaries have been reported in
Alumni Quad dorms since the middle of
November. All the incidents were believ-

sororities are looking into moving
off—campus, perhaps by forming a frator-
nity row, but many obstacles must be over-
come before such a move can be made,

Barry Pollack, president of Tau Kappa
Epsilon(TKE), said “about eight to ten
fraternities and sororities are hoping to
move off—campus" next fall.

search for off—campus housing} has been

Uricentennial next year," said Patrick, ex-
plaining that it is even difficult to open a
doctor’s office in Albany.

“It’s hard to get something new started
in this city," Patrick said. He also said he
does not want to dissuade students,
however, and commented ‘it won't do any
harm in exploring the project."

Pollack said some of the fraternities and

officially granted housing on campus, with
males and females sharing a hall on Col-
onial Quad.

Pollack said fraternities may also con-
sider a “fraternity area't on campus, if
possible.

“We're looking into setting up housing
for fraternities on one of the Quads,"
Pollack said, adding that this plan had no
certainty to it,

When asked what the difference might
be between regular off—campus students
and students living in a fraternity house,
Patrick said that among other things,

have reported other incidents both in the
dorms and in the surrounding
neighborhood.

“I thought he was going to grab me
and throw me in the back of the car,"”
said a 22 year old female resident of
Pierce Hall after she was stopped by two
men in the Alumni Courtyard late at
night on the 19th.

‘The woman who asked that her name
not be used had returned from a lace
study session when she found she was
followed by a “brown sports car."” She
exited het car, but before she could
ascend the stairs to the dorm’s door one
of the two men approached her while
the other remained in the car with the
engine running and the lights on.

“He asked me if I wanted to share 10

“Then he reached for my arm," She
said the incident haunts her whi

hit the downtown quad recently. “the

“That’s the reason we got together,”
Pollack said, adding that the group is not
well defined, but that many seem in-
terested in moving off.

Ross Abelow, president of In-
ter—Fraternity Council, said that “we are
in very basic planning stages" for frater-
nities moving to an off—campus location

“There are no set plans by anybody,"
said Abelow, adding that the fraternities
are “only thinking about it.””

Dick Patrick, City Planning Director of
Albany, said “Nobody has anything
against the idea of a fraternity row—it's
just where are you going to put it."”
“Everybody has seen ‘Animal House',””
said Patrick. “It was funny, but no one
will want to have it next to them."

Patrick suggested that the establishment
of fraternity houses would not be in viola-
tion of the city’s Grouper Law, which
limits a rental unit to no more than three
unrelated people living together.

Patrick explained that a fraternity could
be legally set up as a ‘rooming house that
could hold up to 25 people in it.”

“If you are in a commercial zone, you
would need a special use permit," he
added,

When asked where a likely place for a
fraternity house or a fraternity row would
be in Albany, Pollack answered “We

sororities are “looking to rent in the fall of
1986 [and we] are hoping to buy the
residences within two yedrs time.”
“We're looking for a place where we
would be within a mile radius ,"" Pollack

FBI apprehends spy

Washington, D.C.
(AP) The FBI today arrested a former Na-

tions specialist on charges of conspiring to
sell secrets to the Soviet Union,
culminating an investigation that sources
said was. triggered by turnabout Soviet
defector Vitaly Yurchenko.

Ronald William Pelton, 44, a boat
salesman, was arrested about 12:10 a.m.
today at an Annapolis, Md., hotel, an FBI
spokesman said. He became the fourth
person arrested on espionage-related
charges in the last five days.

The FBI said Pelton had worked from
1965 to 1979 for the super-secret spy agen-
cy, which is responsible for breaking
foreign codes in government, military and
private broadcast transmissions it
monitors around the world.

For the moment, says White House
Chief of Staff Donald T. Regan, “I’m not
sure we can accept it,”” noting the commit-
tee made major changes in the bill at the
last minute before approving it Saturday
morning.

“What does it do to investment, savings

“Face the Nation” on CBS-TV. “We
haven't had time to really examine that.”

In announcing final approval, Rep. Dan

(AP)The state doesn’t owe local govern-

Upon sentencing of convicted felons,

Hot weekend precedes ‘21’ freeze

By Karen E. Beck
EDITORIAL ASSISTANT

The party is not over yet, but judging
from the way SUNYA students celebrated
this past weekend, one would assume the
end was near.

Because the 21 year-old drinking age
takes effect December 1, many students
had their last chance to visit local bars and
attend parties on campus over the
weekend,

Tau Kappa Epsilon (TKE) fraternity
held a “Goodbye to U" party, the last U-
lounge party to be held on campus before
December 1. ‘The party was undoubtedly
a success,” said TKE Vice President Paul
Wagner. “A lot of people showed up early
but left later to go downtown for one last
chance to hit the bars.”*

Sigma Alpha Mu (SAM) threw a party
at Bicycle Annies, which, according to
SAM President Charlie Green, was “very
successful, as 300 attended.

“We felt we had to have a party before
the drinking age went up,” said Green,
“Because advertising for the party was so
extensive, I don’t think there were t
many people who didn’t know about it
he said.

“We really went all out, more so than
most people would have for a party this
scale,"” Green said.

Despite the success of this weekend’s
parties, State Quad Board cancelled their
“Rock Around the Quad Party’ which
had been originally scheduled to take place
on Friday

it was in competition with too many
other things going on around campus,’

‘Students partied heavily at local bars this weekend

“People came out later and stayed longer than usual."

said Quad Board Secretary Marijo Ford.
“I think students were more interested in
getting off campus because this week was
their last weekend to go to local bars,” she
said,

‘We have a beer ball in our suite every
Friday night,” said Tony Heavey, a
sophomore living on Indian Quad, ‘Last
Friday we had to celebrate the end of that
tradition because of the ban on bulk con-
tainers,"" he said.

Brian Cashin, also an Indian Quad
sophomore, commented, ‘I want to enjoy

is taken away from me." Cashin and his
friends also got up at 6:30 a.m. Saturday
to go to Skipper’s Tavern for their last
8:00 a.m. opening.

Skipper’s Tavern traditionally opens its
doors early in the morning on St. Patrick's
Day. “A lot of people were expecting
another St. Patrick's Day,” said Tim Gun-
ther, co-owner of Skipper’s. ‘Three girls
were waiting on the stoop when I came to
open the bar at 7:10 in the morning,”
Gunther said. By 7:55 a.m., 125 people
were standing in line to get in,

“Most of them were still drunk from the
night before,” Gunther said. “I'd say
about 90 percent of them had been up all
night," he added.

“It was a good group, and there was
minor damage to the bar," Gunther said,
explaining that some people danced on the
tables. i

Across the Street Pub did their ‘usual
stable business,"* said Manager Mike Ar-
duini, “A lot of students headed for the
downtown bars because it was their last
opportunity to barhop.””

‘The Long Branch was ‘busier than
usual” on Saturday night, according to
owner Ron Howard. ‘People tended to
want to say goodbye and they had a much
more relaxed attitude toward each other,"
he said. ‘It was similar to what happens
before a holiday or a long vacation, It
tended to be a lot of fun," he said.

People came out later and stayed longer
than usual, said Washington Tavern
bartender Allan Catlan, who worked at the
bar Saturday night. “People seemed down
about the changes that were about to take
place, but they managed to have a good
time," he said.

WCDB regains

total power to
air countdown

By Bill Jacob
ASSOCIATE NEWS EDITOR

WCDB-91 FM’s transmitting power
was seriously curtailed this past month
because of a transistor failure, but
repairs were made the day before the
“Top 91 Countdown,” their first
listeners’ survey, was aired.

The station’s broadcasting power was
reduced from 100 10 15 watts on
November 4 when an output part of the
transistor, part of the transmitter, burn-
ed out, This severely limited the sta-
tion's output capability, said WCDB
General Manager Jon Cosin.

The station's broadcasting range was
limited during the time in which the
transmitter was being repaired, Cosin
said. “It cut us down to just the city of
Albany on a good day,”” he said.

Cosin said the problem started last
winter when a radome, a fiberglass ball
which protects the antenna, broke dur-
ing a snowstorm. “Too much power
was being reflected back into the
transmitter" and that blew the transmit-
ter, Cosin said.

According to Cosin, the repair of the
transmitter took 16 days because of the
difficulty in locating new parts and the

involved to actually have the

jer repaired.

“There was only one place we could
find [the part} in the nation,” Cosin
said. The one person who was capable
of fixing the transmitter also had the flu
at the time, he added,

WCDB considered postponing the
“Top 91 Countdown" but the end
did not have to make a decision. ‘It was
brought up briefly and we said ‘let's
wait and see,""* Cosin said.

WCDB received a few complaints
from listeners concerned about the sta-
tion's reception, Cosin said. “They
couldn’t receive us or we were coming in
fuzzy" in many areas, he said.

The transmitter is located on top of
Eastman Tower on State Quad and was
purchased in 1978 for approximately
$5,000, Cosin said.

WCDB does not anticipate any fur-
ther problems with the transmitter,
Cosin said, and has not considered
puchasing a newer one. A decline in the
number of station listeners is also not
expected, he said,

dent such as this does not occur in the

SUNY board approves differential dorm rates plan

By Alicia Cimbora
NEWS EDITOR

Last Tuesday's 8-t0-1 vote by the SUNY
Board of Trustees approving differential
room rates among SUNY campuses has
met with vehement opposition from stu-
dent leaders.

Differences in dorm rates between cam-
puses could be as much as $250 which, ac-¥
cording to Student Association of the State
University President Jane McAlevey in a
Times Union article, could force students
to choose a school based on room rates
rather than academic standards.

McAlevey was the only member of the
board to vote against the proposal,

‘The plan, in its first year, places a six

towards self-sufficient dorms, but did not
make a decision concerning differential
room rates until Tuesday, according to
theTimes Union

In approving self-sufficient dorms,
SUNY will lose its $6.6 million state sub-
sidy for residence halls,

The self-sufficiency plan allows in-
dividual campuses to set their own room
rates within the guidelines set by the
board,

According to Steve Siroky, SASU’s Ex-
ecutive Vice-President, "Differential room
rates will severely limit access to lower ii
come students. It will close lower income
students out of better housing."

SASU is “very disappointed” at the
boards decision, he said.

“The state thinks self-sufficiency will
help students. We think self-sufficienc
will hurt students," said Siroky. ‘We're
taking it to the legislature—we intend to
fight it,” he said.

According to Student Association Presi-
dent Steve Gawley, SUNYA’s room rates
will increase about $95, ‘We stand to face
these increases every year for the next
several years,” he said adding that these
increases discoursge people from going to
school.

“If the state gave greater priority to a
committment to higher education, infla-
tionary increases would be allocated for in
the state budget,"” said Gawley.

SUNYA has $4.9 million to make up
(from state money) because of self-
sufficiency, said Gawley asserting, “I'll
encourage Student Action Committee if
necessary, to lobby Higher Educati
committees to make necessary changes.

Gawley said he has already met with
Gene Gilchrist, University Building Of-
ficer, regarding student participation in
maximizing revenues and decreasing costs
for dorms. “We have to work with the
university to increase revenue," he said,

Gawley cited water and electricity con-

Computer sensations

The American University in
Washington D.C. caused a sensation
when it decided to use an exotic new
technology — computers — to catch
students who parked illegally around the
campus, College Press Service reported
on October 7, 1965.

Administrators boasted they could
track parking violators by computer,
automatically compose and mail warn-

ig letters, and even flag students with

¢ or more unpaid tickets for
“‘dismissal from the University.""

One professor compared the effort to
“George Orwell's 1984," but ad-
ministrators said a few officials from
other colleges already had called to find
‘out how the strange new effort worked.

United States Student Association —

According to Amsterdam, a lot of the
merchandise available on the podium is in-
expensive and therefore ideal for college
students. And she added there’s a lot more
to buy than earrings.

Not too far away from the display of
earrings, Stacy Bavdavid was selling con-
cert photographs of stars such as Sting,
David Bowie, and Foreigner, to benefit the
Accounting Club. The photos were priced
from $5 to $10 and were taken by Bav-
david’s partner's brother-in-law, she said,

Bavdavid said she likes her job. “I feel
like I’m on the outside looking in on the
diversity of Albany State. It's a great way
to meet people, but it’s impossible ts stand

Top execs show the way up ladder of success

By Pauline Park
STAFF WRITER

Personality and perseverance
may play a more important role
than academics for students who
wish to succeed in the business
field, according to corporate ex-
ecutives speaking at an informal
brunch on Sunday.

Thirteen business executives,
whose children are attending
SUNYA, shared their corporate
expertise with students at the
brunch held in the Patroon
Room.

Close to 200 students attended
the event, which was sponsored
by the University Parents
Association in collaboration with
Pi Sigma Epsilon, the sales and
marketing fraternity.

“These speakers are parents
themselves of SUNYA students
and they're interested in their
children’s academic advisement,”
said Sorrell Chesin, Associate
Vice-President of University Af-
fairs and moderator of the event.
“We capitalized on the parents’
volunteered expertise,” he said.

During the brunch, informal
discussion took place where each
executive was seated with about
ten students at a table. A formal
discussion followed after brunch
that began with comparisons of
the more prestigious private in-
situations such as Harvard or
Wharton Business School, with a
public university like Albany.

John Levato, SUNYA's Direc-
tor of Undergraduate Academic
Services for the School of
Business, said, ‘Albany is among
the best of any public universities.
We don’t have the clan that a
Wharton or Harvard graduate
has, but the Albany graduate does
get hired.

Why? Because of our stress on
a liberal arts education, Our
graduates have the ability to com-
municate orally and in writing,”
he said, adding “‘you also have to
pay your dues. It’s a two-way
street. You can’t walk in and say
‘Here I am’

Levato said the main difference
between SUNYA graduates and
graduates from prestigious
schools is that ‘*Whartons expect
to be a vice-president as soon as
they get out, whereas students at
SUNYA start from the bottom
and, if they're good, work their
way up. They learn values at a
public university," he added.

Dr. Harvey Kahalas, Dean of
the School of Business, agreed,
saying, ‘Many firms do regard
Albany as a very important
recruiting source in terms of
public finance."*

Morton Z.. Schwartz, Vice-
President of Congress Financial
Corp., stressed, “It’s important
to get a general education,
because 50 percent of business is
dealing with people.

“This is the bottom line — ma-
jor in that which makes you hap-
py. Just know how to disciplin
yourself with a good education,”
Levato said.

Alll the executives agreed that
pursuing the M.B.A. directly
after the undergraduate degree
would be much easier. ‘It's dif-
ficult to go back to your studies,
‘once you've already gone out and
maintained a job,” said John
Blauner, Vice President of Grun-
tal & Co. of Woodmere, N.Y.

During the forum, the speakers
explained what firms look for
when recruiting -

According to Bernard Sosnick,
Managing Director of L.F.
Rothchild, “You may be able to
get a job academically, but if
you're a nerd...Well, you've
definitely got to work harder. I

mistake.”

field of business,

A love of coffee coupled with a little im-
agination is sending two SUNYA students
on a free trip to Fort Lauderdale during
Spring Break.

‘The winners in last week’s “I Love Cof-
fee Week” contest to name the new coffee
bar are senior Scott Forde and first year
student James Liptak. Each came up with
the winning name ‘The Ground Floor,”*
according to Lester Hynes, University
Auxiliary Services Director of Cash Sales.

Both will receive a free trip to Fort
Lauderdale from March 24 to 27 said
Hynes. The trip includes airfare, hotel ac-
comodations at the‘Hilton and a rented
car, he said adding that each trip is worth
over $600.

According to Hynes, the winners were
chosen by a selection committee made up
of Student Association Comptroller Eric
Schwartzman, SA Programming Director
Betty Ginzburg, Ross Flax of the Coffee
Development Group, Hynes and several
students,

‘The committee categorized and matched
similar names for the bar and then narrow-
ed it down to about 18 names, said Hynes,
until finally deciding on the winner.

Other prizes awarded included a

The event raised $1,800 which will be
donated by Telethon '86 to the Child

Teachers cut class

Maryland state education officials in
Baltimore, Maryland were startled at
the results of a new survey which in-
dicated a need for 9,000 new teachers
through 1987. State universi

leges said they expect to graduate a max-
imum of 3,000 students who plan to
pursue teaching during the same period.

“We didn't expect the teacher shor-
tage to develop in almost every are
quickly as it did," said George Funaro,
Deputy State Commissioner for Higher
Education in Maryland.

Funaro said the current critical areas
are math, science and foreign language,
but he expected the shortage will soon
effect virtually every school program.

“We are now seeing the consequences
of school underfunding, years of
teacher abuse, years of undervaluing
teachers and education,"” said Beverly
Conelle Stonestreet, President of the
Maryland State Teachers Association,

‘According to Hynes, 6,000 cups of cof-

No change to spare

The only change machine in the Up-
town Library has been in the repair shop
since Monday, November 18, according
to Peter Recore-Migirditch, head of Ad-
ministrative Services of the Library.

“It was removed because it’s not get-
ting power and we don’t know
why, "said Recore-Migirditch, He added
that the machine is  library-owned
equipment.

“We hope that it'll be back any day,
but we don’t know when,” he con-
tinued. “The person who works on it

Hotline saves lives

During the first six months of the
operation of The Samaritans, a local
suicide prevention agency, 4,833 people
contacted the hotline, according to

Karen Wasby, executive director of The
Samaritans, who added that an average
of 26 calls per day were received during
the period

Wasby said that “60 percent of the
callers and visitors were female (and) 40
percent were male. Fifty percent were in
the very high risk category of under 30
years old. Over 20 percent of the initial
contacts were ‘third party’ callers, or
(those) concerned about a friend or

According to Wasby, the numbers of
attempted or completed suicide is on the
rise nationally. “Suicide is now respon-
sible for one American death every 20
minutes,” she said, ading that in 1984,
there were a total of 121 suicides in the

Pogue stands firm on banning bulk containers

By James O'Sullivan
NEWS EDITOR

Despite being grilled for over
twenty minutes last Friday after-
noon, Vice President for Student
Affairs Frank Pogue stood firm
and said the University’s ban on
kegs and beerballs will remain a
part of SUNYA’s alcohol policy.
‘An impromptu meeting bet-
‘ween Pogue and more than twen-
ty students took place when
Pogue came out of his office to
meet students demonstrating
against the ban, which had been
approved two weeks before.
When students challenged the
legitimacy of the ban, noting that
Pogue’s own “Implementation of
21” committee had voted to allow
beerballs by a vote of 8—2, Pogue
replied, ‘Committees make
recommendations and that’s all.””
“We get the feeling that the
students’ recommendations were
ignored,” one student said after
Pogue said he had received a
variety of proposals from dif-
ferent sources, not just the ‘21
committee.
“You can feel this way...{but]

Pogue explained that the
University fears being named in
liability suits if students under the

then damage property or hurt
people. “Our response to that

containers.””

Area colleges contemplate
changes in alcohol policies

By Olivia Abel
STAFF WRITER

College social life is changing
along with the alcohol purchase
age.

‘That seems to be the message as
area colleges adopt their policies
to the new state law, which goes
into effect December 1. And just
as SUNYA’s University Council
voted to ban kegs and beerballs
from the dorms, other schools are
cither tinkering with or rewriting
their alcohol policies.

Union College in Schenectady
has not yet adopted an official
policy concerning drinking rules
and regulations on campus, ac-
cording to Chris Siler, president
of the student government.
However, a recommendation put
together by a committee made up
of faculty, administration and
students has been endorsed by the
student government and is now
going to the President and finally
to the Board of Trustees for
approval.

The proposal would mandate
invitation only admittance to par-
ties serving alcohol, Siler said, but
he added that he saw problems
with the idea, “Before, there used
to be an average of three open
parties on a Friday night, now if
you happen not to get an invita-
tion, what are you supposed to
do?' ,

Siler agreéd that the drinking
age change will affect social life.
“Right now most of our social
life is centered around fraternities
and on campus activities, but new
students will have to be looking
for other alternatives. They'll
probably start going to bars
more.”

School sponsored events will
also be affected by the change in
the drinking age. A public event,
which is defined by participation
of two-thirds or more of the cam-
pus will not include alcohol, said
Siler.

In addition, Union's cighteen
fraternities will now be allowed to
invite to parties only double the
number of people in their frater-
nity if they wish to serve alcohol.
Siler explained that that means if

a fraternity has 25 members, they
may invite no more than 50 guests
to their party.

Right now the students’ main
concern, according to Siler, is
protecting their two campus bars,
The Pub and The Skellar, as they
are popular student hangouts.

“We have one of the more
liberal policies concerning
alcohol,” said Linda Hillin,
President of Student Affairs at
Siena College in Loudonville.
“We are not going dry." The Rat
will not close but it will change its
policy to serving alcohol only on
certain designated nights, she
said, adding that on those nights
only students 21 and older will be
allowed in,

School sponsored mixers will
not serve alcohol as well, but
drinking in the dorms, Hillin said,
will not be regulated. “What goes
on behind closed doors is not our
business and students can drink in
their rooms."

Russell Sage College in Troy is
not planning to ban alcohol but
has adopted a complicated policy
concerning parties on campus, ac-
cording to Shelley Morgan,
Residence Program Director. No
drinking in dorms is allowed and
Resident Assistants are obligated
to issue a report if they find
anyone drinking, further
reports possibly leading to ad-
ministrative action, she said.

have is a policy, in terms of the
decision itself it’s been made,”
Pogue told one student,

Responding to students saying
the ban was an invasion of policy,
Pogue said, “I think the Universi-
ty bas a right and an obligation to
set standards."” He added, “You
are free to do anything you want
as far as parties — kegs are not
banned in approved places.””

Enforcement of the ban “has
not been discussed yet’ by ad-
ministrators, said Pogue, adding
that two meetings with Resident
Assistants are planned for this
week. Student leaders have
previously expressed concern that
the ban will prove burdensome to
RAs and undermine relationships
between dorm residents and the
RAs.

“We expect RAs to assist with
this,"" said Pogue, however, ‘it
will not mean a significant in-
crease in the [RAs] workload."*

“1 was an RA myself and
nothing has changed,”” added
Pogue.

‘About the only peace offering
Pogue offered to the students was
a promise that the University will
evaluate the policy as it is im-
plemented and after it has been in
effect. “We will keep a close eye
on that this spring,” he said.

“Any new policy that goes into
effect is carefully evaluated,” he
stressed as students raised con-
cerns about increasing drug use,
hidden consumption, more use of
hard liquors, and relationships
with RAs.

“These are problems I can't
deal with — ‘what abouts.’
Pogue continued, ‘We will be
able to answer a number of these
questions next semester.’”

Towards the end of the session,
which took place in the West lob-
by of the administration building,
closest to the BA building, Pogue
told the students the University
was only trying to live with a law
that the administration had no in-
put on. “If you're looking for
logic don't look here...,look to the
legislature."”

once before, It was in Poughkeepsie

on his 1984 tour. And now, again, in
Albany in ‘85.

April Anastasi

Tt was the mysterious power of a
superstar. One whom is loved, adored,
chased, anc seemingly never caught. It’ the
same type of power that can be seen in
tapes of Beatles’ concerts, Elvis concerts,
and even Sinatra concerts. It’s that
something that I never thought I'd see in
real life. It was that something 1 saw
tonight

The scariest part was her age. She was
12, As we talked before the concert, |
learned that her name was Marcy. She'd
written to our great adored one and he'd
sent her an autographed picture, She'd lov:
ed him for — how many years — she
couldn't remember, but professed to hav-
ing known and loved some of his early

the show began and things hap-
pened like I'd never seen betore, We were
all excited, sure, but she was extra excited.
She really loved him — that much was ob:
vious as she listened in awe to stories from
the last concert of his that we had attended.
‘Also, I suspected that this might be her first
concert another important factor.

But when he came onto the
stage... Adam Ant himself — live, and in
person, as they say... saw that power
loin things to that litle 12-year-old tke

Id never imagined, Naturally, we were all

with delight at the mere sight of
him. However, she was crying. Real tears
were streaming down her face as. she
sereamed with the rest of us

I saw in her the same hysteria I'd seen in
lips from concerts by those
the Beatles, Elvis, and S
to describe, the sight of a little s
grader who perceives herself so in love
with a stranger, a man more than twice her
age, that her own feclings overpower her

anything like it before and hope to never
again.

Near the halfway point of the concert,
she fainted again — this e she was in
the second or third row, where, for so-
meone that short, it seemed impossible to
get any clean, unused air at all, This time it
‘was worse . . . she had to be carried furthur
back in the audience... it was too

stifling.

During the last encore Adam Ant ripped
his already torn rock tour shirt into pieces.
He threw them into the audience, taking
each piece at a time and wringing the sweat
from it.

As the pieces came down, |, like almost
everyone else, tried to grab one. One piece
landed directly behind me. As I turned to
try to get it, so did everyone behind me.

and I just had to turn away. It just struck
me as too ridiculous to be true...

They turned slightly vicious as a few peo-
ple caught it at once and no one would let
go. A security guard who was nearby
wound up breaking it up, even though it
took quite a while. And when it was over, |
looked at a girl who had been in the scuffle
but who was now next to me. She was cry-
ing, really sobbing, just because she didn't
get a piece of his shirt.

‘The girl cried for the entire encore, and I
just had to turn away. It struck me as too
ridiculous to be true.

‘As we left the concert, I thought about
how just being there, I had a part of Adam
Ant that would always be with me. I had
been close enough to see the color of those
eyes and to really hear the sound of his
voice and see that smile. He was, to put it
as moderately as possible, one of the. best
performers I'd seen. He was full of non-
stop energy, barely pausing as he danced
his way across the stage and into our
hearts.

The audience was definitely younger
than Id expected — mostly high-school
age and younger, and | felt old. However,
when Adam Ant sang some older songs
like “Desperate But Not Serious” and
“Stand and Deliver,” I reveled in being
among the few who could sing along, He
set the entire place bopping with “Strip

and “Playboy.” The most exciting part, of ~

course, was to see him perform live the
soon-to-be-hits from his new album, such
as the title track, “Vive le Rock”, and
“Apollo 9."

Due to the relatively small size of the au
dience at JB's Theatre, Adam Ant was able
to carry on conversations with us and
evoke enthusiastic audience participation.
We sang with him, screamed for him, and
he even taught us one of the dance steps
for which he is so well known.

Next time he’s in the area, if you want to
go to a show where you can really dance
and hear great music, have a terrific time
and see a performer who really gives his
all, go to see Adam Ant. | don’t know if
any rock star is worth the hysteria evoked
in that young girl, but Adam Ant is really
something special. You won't regret it. 1)

Little nifties from the fifties

2nd Street is one big, bright, and

bouncy cliche — and so what!

Cliches are truths used too often.
Every once in a while they are forgotten,
and when they return — Pow! It's stronger

The production at Proctors Wednesday
evening was two and a half hours of non-
stop “haven't | heard this before” entertai
ment. Maybe it's been heard before, but
it’s never been staged quite like this (by the
late Gower Champion). No one will ever
accuse playwrights Michael Stewart and
Mark Bramble of making audiences think:
rather the two men took a classic little
story, dressed her brightly, gave her a
divine voice and some happy feet, then
sent her out into the world for all to see
and love.

And love it the Proctors’ audience did!
Peggy Sawyers (Cathy Wyder), from
Allentown, PA, dreams of stardom. Reali-
ty demands that she settle for less. Dreams
beg for more. And, as this is fantasy
anyway, dreams win,

The volatile Dorothy Brock (Elizabeth
Allen) falls and breaks a leg. She blames
Peggy, who is immediately fired by Pretty
Lady's beleagured director, Julian Marsh
(Michael Dantuono). Pegey flees to the
train station while the cast discusses what
to do. They decide Peggy should replace
Dorothy.

‘And the chase is on, Marsh finds Peggy
and tells her she's the new star. “O.K. Ildo
it” she finally exclaims, Following a
maniac 36 hour preparation, it's nearly
showtime when Dorothy is wheeled in.
She wishes Peggy well. Peggy's friend An-
nie comes in next. "You're not just Peggy
tonight, you're every git! in the chorus line
who ever dreamed.” Peggy leaves her
dressing room and comes back... . a star.

znd Street is simply a great show, Pro
ctors was a perfect setting, with its
Vaudeville-era decor and near-perfect
acoustics. The dancers wore appropriately
muted colored costumes, which facilitated
the ensemble feeling. No one stood out
visually.

Visually, vocally, and artistically, there
were no standouts; everyone was a part of
the action. The "We're in the Money” se-
quence was as brilliant a number as has
ever been staged. In front of a New York
skyline composed of silver coins, dancers
wearing silver sequined clothes tapped
away atop wig-box size silver dollars, Dur-
ing the comic “Shadow Waltz,” a man at-
tempted to dance with a huge shadow cast

The train station set for the “Lullaby of

Broadway” number was a brilliant conven-
tion, Dual staircases and a balcony tower-
ing over the stage allowed the cast to des-
cend upon Peggy to the point where she
finally agrees to save the show. The finale,
“42nd Street", and it's reprise in which
directer Marsh solos, were terrific as well

Allen's performance as the bitchy
Dorothy left little to be desired. Her big
dramatic moment arrived at the end as her
character is humanized by wishing Peggy
luck opening night. Wydner's Peggy grew
throughout the show, and her fine acting
was tremendously complemented by her
superior dancing and singing. Though the
role of Peggy's would-be-beau Jim Walton

her work.

As good as 42nd Street was, one major
complaint must be noted, A bank of lights
about eight inches high around the lip of
the stage blocked the view of the dancer's
feet for a good portion of those in the or-
chestra seats. Tap is foot work; not seeing

ment, under the direction of Jarka Burian,
took on the doubly difficult burden of
selecting O'Neill's most abstract, if not
most bizarre play, The Great God Brown.

Marie Santacroce

The play is an expressionistic drama
about artist Dion Anthony, whose extreme

becomes obsessively jealous of Dion.
Stayed at the University Performing
‘Arts Center, Wednesday, November 20
through Saturday, November 23, The
Great God Brown was an exciting and
most unusual play. The design staff nicely
flavored the stage with remnants of the
early 1900's. An interesting touch was the
assortment of pictures of famous figures of
the times, which were interchangeably
lowered and raised between acts. The most
outstanding of, all was one of O'Neill
himself glowering out at the audience from

Great God Brown.

center stage. The pictures were accom-
panied by some classic turn of the century
tunes such as "Sweet Adeleine.” All this
along with the simple, unadorned sets fix:
ed the mood of the play,

The costumes were true to O'Neill's
directions and were realistic recreations of
1920's garb. The masks, a symbol of the
characters’ dual personalities, were skillful
ly and creatively crafted, Particularly in-
teresting was Dion's mask, which became
increasingly grotesque as he neared his
death.

The actors who had the weighty respon-
sibility of making an obscure,
understandable did so beautifully. M;
Walthers was a dynamic and touching,
Dion. He skillfully wove the character's
dual personality of biller cynic and sen-
sitive lost soul into a realistic one. Steve
Hart seemed at first constrained by his role
as Billy Brown, the nice guy who becomes
overruled by his uncontrollable jealousy of
Dion, Hart, however, came to life, com-
manding the entire stage, when his
character attempted to become the now
dead Dion.

With her insightful humor and flippant
comments, Judith Wilfore was Cybel, the
tough prostitite and tender earth-mother,
from the moment she set foot on stage.
Karen Sherman simply and sweetly por-
trayed Margaret, the wife of Dion, who
could love only his mask and not the man
beneath it. A special mention goes to Todd
Malone, Robert Rodger, and Robert Royce
who were charming as the three young
sons of Dion and Margaret. Their mere
presence lightened the serious tone of the
play,

Under the competent direction of
Burian, the sets, costume, and acting com
plemented a fantastic script, creating a
realistic and succesful version of The Great
God Brown, |

More than just
beer balls

Last Friday approximately 500 students
stormed the administration building demanding
that the University reconsider its recent decision to
ban bulk containers in dorm rooms.

Amidst the cries of ‘The students united will
never be defeated!”” and shouting matches of
“Tastes great. . .Less filling!" hundreds of
students charged through the halls of the
administration building, stopping first to loudly
present their views to University President Vincent
O'Leary, But although few students knew it at the
time, their demands echoed through an empty
office: O'Leary was out of town.

“On to Frank’s office," shouted Student
Association President and rally leader Steve
Gawley. And with that, the crowd took off for the
Office of Vice President for Student Affairs Frank
Pogue, who, along with O'Leary, recommended
to University Council early this month that kegs
be banned from dorm rooms,

‘As the mob of angry students reached his office,
Pogue got up from his desk, walked out of
office, and faced the protesters.

He shook a lot of hands and listened for about
20 minutes to what students had to say. He didn’t
change his stance on banning bulk containers, but
he did try to explain why he believed the policy
should be implemented,

Although Pogue is unlikely to change his
position on this issue, he's earned our admiration
and respect for having the courage to address the
students on a hotly contested decision. We
commend him for an unusual display of
administrative balls.

Many thanks

In keeping with the tradition of Thanksgiving,
let's pause for a moment to reflect on the many
things we have to be thankful for.
>The SUNY Board of Trustees, along with
several other Universities across the nation,
divested its holdings in companies that do business
in South Africa,
> The Geneva summit, although little more than a
beginning, gives us new hope for world peace.
An escort service that had already escorted
more students by the middle of this semester than
they had in all of fast semester,
> Dwight Gooden and Don Mattingly.

Obviously, this barely touches the surface of the
humerous reasons for us to be thankful. But let's
not forget the concerns we must still work to
improve.

Despite much student protest last year, the
“W"" policy is still in effect, Anyone daring
enough Co try a new or difficult course had 10 de
to try it out, Students who couldn't make it after
10 days, paid for it with a “W",

> The Great Dane football team didn’t make the
NCAA's this year, even though they had an 8-2
record that included some tough opponenents.
NCAA officials selected the playoff teams based
solely on quantity of wins without giving fair
consideration to the quality of opponents.

46 percent of incoming frosh and transfers
found themselves living in increased occupancy
this year, Getting adjusted to the University is
enough of a challenge, without having to spend
the first few weeks sharing a two-person room
with three or four other students.

> The 21-year-old drinking age will take effect on
December 1, denying 18-20-year old citizens, who
can vote, marry and fight in a war, the right to go
into a bar and order a beer.

> Beginning next Fall, SUNYA students will be
paying about $95 more per year to live on campus,
as part of a new plan to climinate all state
subsidies for the dorms, making them self
sufficient,

There are, thankfully, ways to change these
problems, While we've much to be thankful for,
there's still some improvements to be made before
we can celebrate a perfect Thanksgiving.

Who Can Write a Column?

Itis an effort to increase reader influence and reader i
put concerning the contents of the newspaper- That's
what the column section is: A home for contributions to
the paper written by the readers, It's an editorial by the
readership and it illustrates the obligation of a good paper
to go beyond news gathering and reporting to print issues
written by, and of concern to, the reader. It is, likewise, a
move which takes the story out of the hands of reporters
and gets the issue handled by the peruser, the critics and
the skeptics who feel reader opinion is of tantamount
value to the challenge of a good papers duty to do more
than merely report only the news. A column is something
which is written for human interest, Consequently, all
columns can be said to be written by experts, that is, ex-
perts on the art of reader interest.

Roger Parnes

Often columns are political in nature. Just look at the
many written by Fred Tabarcei (Sept. 20, Nov. 22) or Ina
Pollack's column on Jews in the Soviet Union (Nov. 6).
Many students write concerning prejudice in this society
or other areas of the world. The column section is often
employed by readers to expose bias, discrimination, in-
tolerance, injustice, hatred, fear or violence that the
writer feels should be brought to the attention of the en-
tire student body. Minority, racial, ethnic and national
groups are usually the victims of injustice, but the ig-
Aoramus can have anyone or anything as a target. For one
reason or another, the editors and staff of this paper may
not cover an issue, it may have been overshadowed (in
‘our eyes) by a more important event. The column section
allows the reader to direct attention to a specific subject
that is of interest to him (or her). But a column does not
always fe to be concerned with social reform.

Columns can also focus on problems that are in-
digenous to the SUNYA campus. For example, when
David Pratt (Nov, 15) wished to make the school aware of

THE FAR SIDE By GARY LARSON

the burden placed on Resident Assistants by the new
drinking regulations, he took advantage of the column
section in the ASP. And when Larry Hartman felt
students might forget the importance of free elections,
when he feared student voter apathy, he reminded the
campus of our privelege in an article entitled “Vote!
Vote! Vote!"* (Nov.1)

‘There are also charities, social events, special days and
even telethons which may escape the notice of the papers
editors. Or maybe there are some unsung heroes you'd
like the world to know about. Eric Blaha (Nov. 12) sent in
a column when he wanted everyone to realize what a
significant history greeks had on campus."He also threw
in a little section about how great he felt the greeks were.
Well, that's Eric for you.

‘There have been a great many subjects addressed in the
columns section. All which woo reader interest because
they are written by readers. In short, the column is the
readers voice- that's what makes it special and unique
from the rest of the paper.

We, the editors of the ASP, formally invite all our
readers to say what they feel we should know. Why,
because when this is not done. the leading casuality is an
idea, a thought, a feeling or belief that is cherished by
you, the reader. As an expert on what is important to
humans, as an expert on being human, we'd like you to
expose your views.

We invite you to share a human opinion. And one does
not have to be editorial pages editor to know the value of
human opinion.

Who can write a column in the ASP? Everyone can.
Are we intersted in being enlightened by your opinion?
Well, you can just bet your bouncing baby blue booties
we are. After all, that’s what a column section is au
about.

Greek esprit

To the Editor:
‘This past week Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity, sponsor
of TKE Week, took advantage of an opportunity to

» reveal some of the true spirit not often recognized in

Greek life. The TKE brothers gathered last Wednesday
and proceeded to collect several bags of leaves and pine
needles as well as scattered garbage. Thursday's Movie
Night offered students a chance to substitute a typical
‘Thursday out with a quiet evening on campus. The TKE
Keg Roll, which received coverage from both TV 10 and
WNYT, consisted of a nonstop 50 mile relay around the
academic podium. TKE accepted pledges from students
that added up to $800. That will be donated to St. Judes
Children’s Research Hospital. Today, TKE will be found
downtown on Hamilton Street raking and cleaning. The
final event is TKE Night at the Little Horn this Tuesday
(tonight). The brothers hope to see everyone there in

A beef on chicken

To the Editor:

We would like to take this opportunity to publicly con-
sratulate the University Auxilary Service on its incredible
sense of originality and creativity. Where else can you get
such a wide variety of foods under the same roof?

In the past month we've had 1-4 chicken, chicken rice
soup, chicken noodle soup, chicken chow mein, deep
fried chicken, chicken parmesian, chicken wings, chicken
nuggets, ‘Lightly Browned Roast Chicken,"” and chicken
sandwich on a sesame roll. They even reached across the
globe to bring us Hawaiian chicken (thanks, UAS).

Notice anything slightly familiar about these entrees?

Sclerosis busters

To the Editor:

This is to inform the University community of the
Students Against Multiple Sclerosis (SAMS) Program,

Our main event is the Rock Alike — rock star look
alike contest. What this involves is students imper-
sonating rock stars in their videos. Each contestant will
have the opportunity to represent Albany State in a na-
tional contest run by MTV. MTV will film a video of the
contestant’s performance and the finals of the contest will
be seen on MTV. The winner of the entire contest will be
given a summer internship at MTV.

The whole Rock Alike event is an effort to raise funds
for the vital research of Multiple Sclerosis, a
neurologically disabilitating disease, that primarily
fects people 17-34, Just when you're beginning to live,
Multiple Sclerosis can strike, We at Albany State are out
to bust Multiple Sclerosis, and if Albany raises the most
money, then MTV will give a concert here at Albany next
fall. This free concert will be filmed and then aired on
MTV.

So get involved, sign up to be a contestant, help get the
free concert for Albany State, but most of all, let’s get
together and bust Multiple Sclerosis!

The Students Against Multiple Sclerosis Campus Board

Wrong rally

To the Editor:

Last Friday it appeared as if the Student Association
added a notch onto their belt of successes due to the large
turnout at the protest of the Ban on Kegs and Beerballs.
However, such an assertion depend} on one’s ‘definition
of “success.” It is indeed possible to regard the result of
this rally as being an utter failure, or rather a reflection of
the failure of college students to empathize with ‘‘real””
problems directly facing various groups in today’s world
and ultimately affecting the world as a whole.

There have been on this campus a number of events
whose purposes were directed at providing a forum for
learning, or the expression, of student concern and sup-
port. Some example are the rally against apartheid and
Jean Kilbourne’s presentation on women’s portrayal in
the media. Although both events were moderately suc-
cessful, in terms of student interest, neither attracted the
number of students that was attracted to this past Fri
day's rally.

Granted, the alcohol policy of this university is
something which directly affects the lives of 21 year olds
living on campus (however few of them there are - surely
this number is significantly less than the number of
students who participated in the rally. This leaves one
wondering about the motives behind the incredible
display of enthusiasm.) However, it is important for
students or responsible citizens fortunate enought to at-
tend an institution of “higher learning” to “extend”
themselves to issues which they see are not directly affec-
ting them.

Most likely a close examination of issues such as apar-
theid, the oppression of women, and alcohol abuse would
make students aware of the fact that our interrelation-
ships with each other render us all as being hopelessly
connected.

—Wendy L. Cervi

The final toast

To the Editor:

“The following is in response to the recent protest of the
new SUNYA policy banning kegs and beer-balls,

So SA President Steve Gawley and his cohorts feel their
rights are being infringed upon by not being allowed to
consume kegs of beer within their own rooms? And
Gawley feels the new policy is “ridiculous” and
“nonfunctional’”?

Well, it is my belief that parties at which kegs of beer
fare present rarely are contained within the privacy of
‘one’s own room, These parties, while being a lot of fun
and fine opportunities to meet people, more often than
not, cause problems. I believe many people leave these
parties out of control, and wind up infringing the rights
of their fellow students. 1 feel the right to peace and quiet,
vomit-free bathrooms and stairwells, and operational exit
lights and bathroom stall doors far outweigh the conceiv-

ced, right to consume large amounts of alcohol in an

already too crowded living environment. Large amounts
of alcohol and large numbers of people in the small living
areas within dorms simply is not functional.

This new policy represents needed measures to control
alcohol consumption by those who will not have the
privilege (80 percent plus), and is not an attack on the
small percentage. who will be 21 on December 1. If
nothing else, the ‘Rat’ will still be available to those who
are of age. So, for those who will not be 21 by December
1, 1985, and are demonstrating against SUNYA policy,
any question regarding alcohol policy (and you) is moot.
Your efforts will prove fruitless (no pun intended). So
whether anyone chooses to join Steve Gawley in sitting on
a keg all winter long outside the Administration building
in protest to SUNYA policy, New York State law and
SUNYA policy will not change.

I would like to convey my sincere regrets to those of
you whose social life revolves around alcohol. Also, my
apologies to you, the cavalier few who are able to conduct
themselves civilly while sitting in a dormitory drinking a
keg of brew. Cheers,

—Laurence Fitzpatrick

No ladies please

To the Editor:

The ERA never did get ratified. If it had, perhaps 1
wouldn't have to write this letter. 1am appalled at the
blatently sexist language on several campus bathroom
doors. Why must this institute of higher learning have a
Men's room meanwhile, right next door, a Ladies room?
Being an English major, I am particularly sensitive to the
use of language; I am also forced to be reminded of the
double standard every time 1 walk down the Humanities
building hall. 1 know there are many other SUNYA
bathroom doors which purvey the message that women
must act as ladies while men are simply men, This is not a
petty concern! I am extremely irritated by this brazen lack
Of respect for the power of words. A university should be
a model of progressive thought. The fact that this situa-
tion exists here is embarassing to us all. I'm sure it would
not be that much of an ordeal for this inequity to be
remedied, In the interest of the university at large, I ap-
peal to whomever is in charge of painting messages on the
bathroom doors to change Ladies to Women, thus recti-
fying this sexism once and for all.

King of chess

To the Editor:

Many of you out there may not have heard, but the
world has a new chess champion, 22 year old Gary
Kasparov of Russia. Actually, only several years ago he
was known as Gary Epstein to friends and relatives; that
is, until Soviet authorities realized that they had a poten
tial world champion on their hands. Unfortunately, a
Jewish-sounding name does not complement the image of
Russian sporting and intellectual superiority that the
Kremlin wishes to maintain,

Neverless, despite the new and ‘improved’ name,
Kasparov's victory did not bring tears of joy to the eyes
of leading Soviet bureaucrats. Kasparov is an outsider, a
provincial, and the demise of Anatoly Karpov as world
champion has undoubtedly collapsed an entire mini chess
bureaucracy of syncophants who have encrusted
themselves about him in Moscow during the past ten
years.

The match was gruelling, but far less so than their first
one which was cancelled after 50 games had been played
with no clear result. This time, however, there was no
doubt as to who the better player was. On several oc
sions the normally sober Soviet chess fans present as spec
tators during the match burst out in wild applause, cheer-
ing and whistling after dazzling surprise moves by
Kasparov.

—Jane Szlasa

Chess has, over the past two centuries, seen some ec-
centric champions, to say the least. Alexander Alekhine,
the greatest of the Soviet players of the early 20th cen-
tury, once became so furious upon losing an important
game that he knocked over all the pieces, climbed on the
table, and proceeded to urinate on the chessboard, Dutch
champion Dr. Max Euwe was a noted psychiatrist, and
who could forget the antics of America’s own Bobby
Fisher, considered by many to be the most talented player
yet seen. Bobby's temper tantrums were legendary, and
hhe delighted in infuriating the Russian chess establish-
ment by consistently showing up late and sometimes not
at all during the 1972 championships in Reykjavik,
Iceland. In fact, most chess enthusiasts are keeping a
flame burning in the hope that Fisher will come out of his
self-imposed premature retirement and again mow down
the top Russian chess wizards. The Russians had never
agreed to the stringentconditionsFisher had demanded for
the defense of his FIDE (Federation Internationale Des
Echees) title, but Kasparov is a different sort of man than
Karpoy, and it is not conceivable that a match could be
somehow arranged-n real chess battle of the century,

Anyway, I'm sure I echo the sentiments of the world in
conveying congratulations (o the youngest champion in
chess history, Gary (Epstein) Kasparov,

Improving job market comes as no
surprise to SUNYA career advisor

By Rosalind Bickel

Recent predictions indicating that the
job market for students graduating in 1986
is loosening up came as no surprise to the
man responsible for helping SUNYA
graduates find their first job.

Everything I've read indicates a strong
economy and when there is a strong
economy, people are hiring,” said Stanley
Schwartz, director of the Career Develop-
ment Center,

Job prospects
look favorable
for ’86 grads

Bethlehem, Pa,
COLLEGE PRESS SERVICE — Students
who graduate in 1986 will enjoy “slight-
ly” better prospects for landing a job
than 1985 grads, the College Placement
Council (CPS) predicts.

All told, American businesses expect
to hire avout two percent more grads
next yar, the CPC found in its annual

i “ar assessment of the student job

‘The CPC's report, the first of three
national job outlook surveys published
by major agencies in November and
December of each year, forecasts better
times ahead for most kinds of majors.

But last year, the CPC's rosy predic-
tions of a bumper job market for college
grads did not come true, in part because
of the computer industry slump.

“The recovery slowed down to some
degree,” explained CPC spokeswoman
Rhea Nagle. “The big fall-off in the
Silicon Valley was the category we were
off in.”

This year “there will be plenty of op-
portunities (for computer majors) out-
side the computer industry,” said John
Shingleton, placement director at
Michigan State anu the sponsor of
another of the afinual job outlooks.

Shingleton expected his report to ap-
pear in a few weeks, and that it also will
indicate a ‘slightly’ better job market
for the Class of 1986,

In the CPC survey, firms said they ex-
pected to hire seven percent more
business grads than last year. They also
forecast having four percent more open-
ings for masters of business administra-
tion, although last year was a bad one
for MBAs.

Students with degrees in science, math
and technical disciplines-excluding
engineering-should also experience a
slightly improved job market, CPC
predicted. Employers expect to hire
three percent more bachelor’s grads in
these areas and 13 percent more who
have a master’s, CPC data show.

Employers’ predictions of engineeri
grads’ prospects ‘‘are contradictory,”
Nagle said. “Employers are saying one
thing, but when they project figures,
those figures show a declin

The data indicate corporations will
hire five percent fewer grads this year,
but in interviews engineering executives
thought there would be a rising demand
for engineers, explained Nagle.

“It’s particularly surprising at the
bachelor's level because they have been
the most sought after for a number of|
years,” she added.

Companies expect to have seven per-
cent more job openings for engineering
students with advanced degrees,
however.

Liberal arts majors face a similarly
confusing job market, Nagle contended.

While the data show companies an.
ticipate hiring three percent fewer liberal
arts majors in the coming year, many
employers say they are increasingly in-
terested in hiring humanities students,

Nagle said.

“Most students from this school come
from the New York City region, which has
a much higher competitive job market
than the rest of the country," he said.

“The Sunbelt is where there is fast-rising
growth and it is easier to get a job there
than in the New York City area,” he
added.

Many students “have blinders on” to
the job world, he said, because they only
know the New York market. ‘The
economy is thriving compared to recent
years,” he said, “‘and it is easier to-get a
job in this country than many students
think.

‘Of course, this doesn’t mean you can
walk right into a job right after college,”
Schwartz added, “but the prospects are
better this year than last.””

Schwartz said he was optimistic about
job placement chances this year.

“We've been through tough times,"” he
commented, “‘and the fact that percen-
tages are growing concerning job-hiring
reflects the fact that the economy is doing
better.”

eee Fen

“Tt is easier to get a

job in this country

than most students
think.”’

— Stanley Schwartz

In the survey, conducted by the College

Placement Council, students with masters
degrees in science, math and technological
skills were forecast for strong increases, as
were business school graduates and those
with MBAs. The report also said
Humanities fields majors faced a decline
however,

“This data,” said Schwartz, ‘‘can be
misleading, Anyone who is bright and has
skills can get a job. Technical skills are
much more marketable than non-technical
skills, such as those in the Humanities,"” he
said, “‘and that is why their prospects are
up.”

But, Schwartz said, everyone will
benefit from the current strong economy.
Evidence from the survey supports this,
for although the survey showed a three
percent drop in job prospects for liberal
arts majors, interviews with employers
revealed an increased interest in hiring
liberal arts majors, with employers
recognizing the value of the skills liberal
arts majors have,

Dr. Gregory Stevens, assistant Dean of
Humanities, agreed with Schwartz that the
statistics can be misleading. He stressed
that the percentages are for hiring directly
out of college, which means that ‘students
with technical skills will be able to find
jobs faster, for they are already trained for
a specific job.”

“But,” he pointed out, ‘most people
change jobs and fields a few times before
they stay in a certain job." Liberal arts
majors, he said, “‘are behind when they
first get out of college, but in the long run
the skills they learn help them to pursue
long range education such as grad school
or other paths that can lead them as far as
they want to go.’

Stevens also said that graduate schools
for business are looking for liberal arts
majors 2s well as business majors. ‘Skills
such as communication, writing, values
and ethics are invaluable, in terms of long
range education,"" he said, “and more and
more businesses are realizing this

“Since many people do change jobs,"
Stevens pointed out, “'you have to ask

educate yourself is a lifelong proposition.
Ask yourself if you think you will be in the
same exact field that you got your
undergraduate degree in in fifty years.
“Majoring in Liberal Arts may put you
behind as soon as you graduate, as studies
like these indicate," he continued, “*but in
the long run, it will be invaluable in pursu-
‘ing other paths." oO

Everyone at one time or another ex-
periences depression. In fact, mild depres-
sion is the most common emotional distur-
bance in America today. Depression is a
normal part of living as long as it is not
prolonged or on a regular basis. Serious
depression, however affects one of five
people at some time in pas

their lives. Middle
There is a broad range

of symptoms which are Earth
common to depression.

Changes in behaviors Roots
and feelings include social withdrawal,
neglect of responsibilities, poor concentra-
tion, irritability, inability to gain pleasure
from enjoyable activities and loss of sexual
desire.

‘Changes in biological functioning may
occur, such as in eating and sleeping pat-
terns, in addition to unexplained aches and
pains. In a mild depression, dejection or
discouragement are usual feelings, whereas
in a more severe depression, feelings of
very low self-worth, utter helplessness and
suicidal feelings may be experienced.

The causes of depression are multiple
and complex, as they are unique to each
person, There are, however, several com-
mon causes. First of all, certain personali-
ty characteristics may be involved in
predisposing an individual to depression.
People who are highly self-critical, very
demanding or unusually passive and
dependent may be prone to depression.
Environmental influences may play a role
in causing depression too. Unfavorable
family, social or working environments
can be conducive to depression.

One of the most common explanations
of depression is separation or loss. The
loss may regard an event such as divorce,
death of a loved one, loss of one’s job, end
of a relationship, moving to a new place,
or even graduating from school. The grief

Getting to roots of depression may
facilitate a better understanding

‘one experiences from the loss or separation
is turned inward in overly dependent
dividuals, and develops into an on-going
process of self-blame and quilt. The loss
may be viewed as a rejection.

A second commonly given explanation
for depression is learned helplessness.
Although anxiety may be the initi
response to a stressful situation, it is
replaced by depression if the person comes
to believe that contro! is unattainable, or
that negative outcomes are unavoidable.
The depression-prone individual tends to
attribute bad outcomes to personal,
global, stable faults of their character,
They will fail to initiate action that might
allow them to cope.

Thirdly, physical causes are often nam-
ed as possible reasons for experiencing
depression, Hormonal or chemical shor-
tages or imbalances are thought to play a
role in some cases of depression, Certain
medications, low-grade infection or the in-
itial stages of a cold or the flu can also lead
to depression.

In dealing with depression, it is impor-
tant to identify the potential sources of the
depression, Is there a key event that set it
off? When did it happen? Where did it oc-
cur? Where did it begin? With whom did it
occur? Is there a definable pattern? A
systematic analysis of such factors can
contribute to an understanding of the
depression.

University Counseling Center, Student
Health Services and Middle Earth are all
places on-campus where one may seek help
in dealing with depression. Middle Earth
counselors are trained to help people cope
with their problems and are available to
talk at almost any time. Feel free to call

Nov. chosen as diabetes month

By Mark Kobrinsky

STAFF WRITER

Inan effort to make Americans

more aware or the seriousness of
diabetes, the American Diabetes
Association (ADA) has named
November as National Diabetes
‘Awareness Month.
_ Barbara Nichols, Executive
Secretary of the Capital District
Chapter of the ADA said, “The
three major goals of National
Diabetes Awareness Month are
education, research and the detec-
tion of the unknown diabetic.””

The ADA is seeking to educat
the public, as well as the diabetic,
on the prevention and complica-
tions of diabetes, and  ac-
comodating the diabetic person,
said Nichols.

The ADA defines diabetes as
“a disease in which the body does
not produce or properly use in-
sulin, a hormone that is needed to
convert sugar, starches and other

There is no cure for diabetes,
however ADA scientific experts
are confident that recent research

Diabetes is divided into two
categories: Type I and Type Il.

Protest

slowly dispersed.

“1 was very pleased with the
way everyone conducted
themselves in such a peaceful
manner,"’ said Gawley.

“This is more than a protest for
the alcohol rights, it’ a protest for
student rights,"’ said Charles
Green, president of Sigma Alpha
Mu fraternity. “I think it’s un-
fair and if we try long and hard
‘enoughthe policy will be changed.
This is going to ruin the college’s
social life,” said Beth Rubin.

Chris Stein said the reason he
came to the rally was , ‘1 am in-
terested in what's going on and
feel the policy must be changed

In an interview after the rally,
Gawley said SA has different
things planned for every week.
Tuesday SA will be encouraging
students to call O'Leary and
Pogue before they leave for the
Thanksgiving recess.

We're hoping to get 300 phone
calls to each of them during the
course of the day," he said.

Next week, Gawley said SA is
planning individual lobby visits to
Pogue and O'Leary.

Stettin discussed aspects of the
protest during a post-rally inter-
view. ‘I was happy with the tur-
nout out although the weather
probably lowered it,"” he said.

When asked how his participa-
tion as a speaker would affect
relations with his supervisors,
Stettin said, ‘So far nobody has
given me any flack personally.
Supposedly other RAs were
threatened."

O'Leary was unavailable for
comment as he left Albany Friday
for a business meeting in New
York.

Gawley said he felt O'Leary's
abscence was very ‘“‘convenient’*
since the rally had also been
scheduled for that day.

“As it stands the policy re-
mains in place and will go into ef-
fect December Ist,” saif Pogue.
“Honestly I think the University
should have taken the route of
many colleges and become ‘dry’.
The University wouldn't be as
liable as they are now. I think it’s
@ very reasonable policy," he
said.

“Type 1, insulin-dependent
diabetes, is found in 15 percent of
all cases, usually in children and
young adults," reported the
ADA.

‘Type 1 is the most severe of the
two types of diabetes. Symptoms
of this form of diabetes often oc-
cur suddenly. The ADA indicated
warning signs of “extreme thirst
and hunger, frequent urination,
rapid weight loss with easy tiring,
weakness, fatigue, irritability and
nausea and vomiting.’”

‘Type II, non-insulin dependent
diabetes, is a more common form
of the disease and occurs in
almost 85 percent of the cases
detected. Nichols said, “This
form of diabetes develops mainly
in persons who are over the age of
40, and are overweight.

Persons who have this form of
the disease still produce insulin,
but their body cells resist the in-
sulins actions, They may go for
years without realizing they have
diabetes, she said.

The symptoms for Type I
diabetes come on slowly and may

. According to the

symptoms include
“fatigue, frequent urination, ex-
treme thirst, itchy skin, blurred

vision and sores that heal slow-
ly." Patients may require some
sort of oral medication but, many
times can be treated with diet con-
trol and exercis

Nichols said, “There really is
NO way to prevent diabetes if it
runs in the family. However,” she
added, “tno one should be grossly
overweight.”*

Diabetes can strike practically
anybody, according to the ADA,
but the disease ‘occurs in twice as
many women as men, and is
found more frequently among
black and low income
populations."”

Statistics from the ADA report
that more than 12 million people
in the United States have
diabetes. It is now considered to
be one of the worst diseases of
our time. Statistics also show that
diabetes results in a ‘‘tremendous
$18 billion-a-year drain on the
U.S. economy,

The ADA is not federally sub-
sidized and relies totally on public
support to help diabetics and their
families. The Capital District
Chapter of the ADA is presently
holding phone-a-thons and bike-
a-thons to gain money for their
cause. oO

Health insurance rate hikes to bypass SUNYA

By Linda Greenberg
STAFF WRITER

Malpractice insurance rate hikes will

have no effect on the cost of services pro-
vided by the Student Health Service at
SUNYA, even though nationwide large fee
hikes are predicted because of rising
malpractice rates.
In the State University of New York
system, state employees are covered by Ar-
ticle 17 of the NY State Constitution,
which is a public officers law dealing with
professional liability. Fulltime employees
of the Student Health Service do not have
to purchase malpractice insurance because
they are covered under Article 17,"" ex-
plained Associate Vice President for
Health and Counseling Services, Neil
Brown.

Medical Director Doctor Norman Den-
nis agreed, saying ‘‘Article 17 covers
anyone who may work for the state —
engineers, architects, attorneys, physi-
cians, and others. The only instance that
malpractice insurance rates will affect
these workers is if they do other work on
the side, such as consulting."”

In case of a malpractice suit involving a
state employee, “A suit would be filed in
the Court of Claims, id the State At-
torney General's office would act as the
legal defense for the employee," said
Dennis.

don't see the malpractice issue caus-

ing an increase in rates, There will be no

cost increases for the remainder of this

said Brown,

xt year, “The only thing

an increase in student

health insurance rates is an increase in the

cost of pharmaceutical supplies. We have

no control of that, Also, a slight increase

in rates is to be expected due to inflation,”
he added.

“There could possibly be a modest price
increase with the expansion of Services,”

said Dennis. “More laboratory procedures
may be available at the Student Health
Service that would help us to obtain
quicker results with on-site laboratory
equipment at a lower cost to students,””
Dennis commented.

“For instance, a blood count at a
hospital might cost $12, but here at the in-
firmary, it would cost only $6, It would
cost less for students, while at the same
time generating six extra dollars of income
for the Infirmary,’’ he said.

“This additional income would be used
to hire additional staff or to provide addi-

tional services,” said Dennis.

Brown emphasized that ‘The Student
Health Service has a no-profit motive; any
additional income goes into the Health
Services account to improve Brown em-
phasized that ‘The Student Health Service
has a no-profit motive; any additional in-
come goes into the Health Services account
to improve services for students. As state
employees, we are on fixed income
salaries, so the extra money only benefits
students. Student satisfaction is our goal."*

Keith Welz, a member of the Great
Danes Wrestling Team who injured his

knee and required orthoscopic surgery as a
result said, ‘‘I received outpatient surgery
at Child’s Hospital and am being taken
care of here at the Infirmary. The Infir-
mary costs a lot less than staying at a
hospital and I am getting excellent care
here,” said Keith.

Other areas of the Health Services that it
may expand to, said Dennis, are being con-
sidered. “Right now there is little or no in-
surance coverage for students involved in
intramural athletics. This is one area to
work on,” said Dennis,

Kalamazoo, MI
COLLEGE PRESS SERVICE — Health
center fees on the nation’s campuses are
about to go up, college health officials
around the nation say.

Students at Western Michigan
University, for example, are paying
higher health center fees this semester
because WMU’s insurance company
wanted to charge the school $500,000
more than last year for malpractice
insurance.

Although no one has ever accused
WMU of medical malpractice and col-
legiate malpractice suits are rare, experts
say students nationwide soon will share
WMU's misfortune. They also predict
many campus health care facilities will
be cutting back programs over the next
few years.

They say it's because skyrocketing
malpractice insurance rates are affecting
campuses for the first time this year, the
experts explained, “Where student
health centers have been insulated up to
now from the increase in malpractice
rates, they won't be anymore," said

Steve Blom, director of the American
College Health Association.

Added Eugene Marquardt, president
of the University Risk Managers
Association: ‘If we can't get it resolved,
institutions will be forced to cut back on
training and health care treatment. They
just will not be in any position to take
chances,””

Many large schools with medical
training facilities already have been
unable to buy enough malpractice in-
surance, Companies are refusing to of-
fer insurance in some cases because of
increasingly large court awards to pa-
tients who claim they have received im-
proper or poor treatment.

In response, college risk managers
‘across the country currently are drafting
plans to insure themselves.

Marquardt is confident that, by adop-
ting new tactics, most schools will be
able to keep their health service or
medical training programs going, but it
may cost students more,

Health Center fees to rise across nation

He thinks the current insurance crisis
is as severe as any that has confronted
colleges since the late 1966s, when stu-
dent riots sent property insurance rates
through the roof. ‘The crisis has come
on faster, and gone deeper, than most
we've faced," Marquardt said.

Medical malpractice insurance
premiums are increasing as much as
four-fold in less than a year.

‘Campus insurance rates had been ris-
ing more slowly because student health
centers do not provide the kinds of care-
-such as surgery-that most frequently
trigger malpractice claims.

Moreover, campuses haven’t had
many malpractice claims filed against
them.

Nevertheless, campus health officials
say it’s only a matter of time before
higher malpractice rates catch up with
them, “I sense the insurance industry is
saying ‘We've got to do something
about these losses," and universities are
being swept up in that concern along
with everybody else," Blom said.

This was echoed by officer An-

the courtyard incident. “Those

JV squad stands at 1-1

By Lee Gross

Last Saturday night the Albany men’s
junior varsity basketball team chalked
up their first victory against a com-
petitive Hartwick College JV team,
15-61.

This game showed an overall team ef-
fort both offensively and defensively.
With the help of Murphy Whalin’s out-
side sharpshooting and Steve Jerymn
working the inside, the Danes put
together their first victory.

Although there was no actual turning.
point in the game, the Danes really took
control after a technical foul was called
against the Hartwick team, This led to a
slew of quick hoops, opening up the
game and allowing Albany to roll.

The victory was a big lift after the
tough loss to Hudson Valley in the

with 14:10 left in the game,

‘The defense held Dudek and the Panther
offense in check once more, and the Danes
took the lead for the first time in the game
with 11:39 left when Milano hit Donnelly
for a 25 yard score.

The overworked Dudek couldn’t get
Plymouth State more than a field goal at-
tempt, which went wide left, on their next
possession, and the Dane wishbone took
over again, with Soldini, who gained 121
yards on 16 carries, relentlessly chewing
out yardage and Milano hitting his
receivers,

‘An end-around option pass from Don-
nelly to tailback Ro Mitchell produced 20
yards and a first down on the Panthers’ 22,
and Milano threaded the needle to Donnel-
ly two plays later for the touchdown that
closed the door on Plymouth State with
5:48 left to play.

Dudek left the game with 4:16 left with a
sprained ankle after being hit by

Dmitrenko. The Danes did survive a scare
when Panther fullback Jerome Minchan’s
40 yard touchdown run was brought back
because of a penalty,

Although playing in the ECAC game
was anti-climatic after the Danes had
hoped to recieve an NCAA bid, it did
produce its own rewards,

“We went up there hoping to make a
statement about our program, and I think
we did with that 33-0 second half,"” said
Ford. “I was hoping we'd win like-35-0,
that would have really shown we were a

vastly superior team, but we went in at
halftime thinking ‘Geez, we better just win
this thing.’ We've never come back from
being 21 points down at halftime before. It
was a helluva way to end the season; I was
thrilled.”

PAW PRINTS — Donnelly finished the
season with 9 touchdown receptions and
13 for his career, both Dane records... The
Panthers were penalized 12 times for a
whopping 144 yards...Dmitrenko had 14
tackles, including 6 solos...Milano went
6-11 for 78 yards.

final minute due to a few mistakes,
68-64. However, after the victory over
Hartwick, confidence has been restored
in this young Albany team.

Despite their 1-1 record, the Albany
team is labeled a strong, competitive
and very well-coached team. The JV
team is made up of all freshman playing
together for the first time.

However, after promising scrimmages
and hard practices, the team is playi

While there are no true standouts on

Great Dane skaters whip Siena; fall to BCCC

By Olivia Abel
and Lisa Jackel

The Albany State hockey club ex-
perienced the thrill of victory as well as the
agony of defeat this weekend.

After crushing Siena 8-5 on Thursday,
they fell to Broome County Community
College, 6-3, on Saturday night.

‘The loss still can be used as an indication
of how the Danes will handle other tough
teams in the conference, Albany may have
Jost, but more importantly, they were not
outclassed by Broome County,

“We had doubts about competing
against schools in the Division III league
which we have just joined this year,"” said
player Rich Diem. “But this weekend has
answered our questions - now we know we
can compete with and even beat these

proving with every. game
we play,” said Albany State head coach
Bruce Pomakoy.

Despite their loss Saturday night to
Broome County, Pomakoy felt that the
team played an outstanding game. He
pointed out that Broome is number one in
their division, proving that Albany can
compete with anyone in the division II
league.

After trailing 2-0 at the end of the first
period, Albany came out fighting in the
beginning of the second period in a display
of sharp passing to score three goals to
take a 3-2 lead.

Right wing Scott Ely scored first for
Albany with assists from Pete Leskody
and Dan Esler, followed by a goal from
Jim Mae! rand Paul Essner.

Ely scored his second goal of the game
with less than (wo minutes left in the
period with assists from Larry Hartman
and Mike Mondiello, Albany then lapsed,
allowing BCCC to score twice to end the
period with a 4-3 lead,

Albany lost control of the game as BCC
put the icing on the cake with two more
goals.

“Despite the loss we played our best
game yet," stated Pomakoy. “The desire
is there and they are just going to keep get-
ting better and better."”

Broome’s coach told Pomakoy that
Albany would have won if Broome hadn't
scored the last two goals of the second

NCAA Division Ill Cross Country

sity of Atlanta this past weekend,
Would he do it all over again if asked?
Probably not.

Parlato’s race was summed up in one
word by head coach, R.K, Munsey:
“Disappointing”.

Parlato got on the starting line of the
Brassy, hilly course with 183 other run-
ners, He came across the finish in 155th
with a time of 29:21,

“It was the worst race of my life,"

Albany and Siena battled it out Thurs-
day night, ending the first period with a tie
score of 2-2,

Playing more strongly and with intensi-
ty, Albany scored three more goals in the
third period to end the game with a victory
of 8-5. Albany's goals in the third period
were scored by defenseman Kusak, Dave
Dalbek and right wing Leskody.

Dalbek's goal was a tremendous in-
dividual effort as he went down one on one
with a Siena defenseman.

Parlato falters in Atlanta

This year he ran for Albany State as
an individual, The Albany runners just
missed qualifying as a team this year,
but Parlato qualified as an individual
due to an excellent 11th place finish at
the NCAA regional meet on November
16th.

“At the regional’ meets across the
country there was a total of 1,729 men
who lined up to qualify for nationals.
Only 184 of these guys made it. No mat-
ter how he did, he still deserves respect
for being there,"” said Munsey.

Although he didn’t finish up strong,
Parlato seems to be fairly satisfied with
his season.

“It was an accomplishment making it
to nationals, but I've had better meets
than that’*, said Parlato,

Even though Albany State was not
represented at nationals, the quality of
their team can be seen in the quality of
the competition in the N.Y. Region.

Out of a field of 21 teams from eight
regions, the N.Y. region placed high.
Ithaca’ College took eighth, St.
Lawrence took sixth, and R,1.T. took
third,

Hartman commented, “The lines are
starting to play really well together. All we
need is a little more ice time and a few
more breaks because we can beat any team
in the league.”

‘The team is looking for defenseman Bil-
ly Abrams, who is out with a broken arm,
to return after Thanksgiving. Pomakoy
points out that his size and knowledge
have been sorely missed at the blue line.

Great Dane cagers face RPI in opener Sunday

Junior Adam Ursprung.

By Kristine Sauer
SPORTS EDITOR

‘The Albany State men’s basketball team
tips off its season this weekend in the
Capitol District Tournament at Union.

‘The Great Danes won the tournament
last year, but, with only one returning
starter, whether or not Albany can match
that is up in the air. The Danes have lost
seven proven players since last year from a
team that went 22-6 and ended their suc-
cessful season in the first round of the
NCAA tournament in Worcester,
Massachusetts.

Junior Adam Ursprung returns in his
third season starting for the Danes. Last
year the 6'4” small forward was the
leading scorer for Albany and was fiamed
to the All-Conference team.

Joining Ursprung in the starting five is
junior Mike Cinque, a transfer from
Aldephi University. Cinque looks solid in
the point guard position and adds his two
years of experience gathered from starting
at the Divison I1 Long Island school.

Senior John Mracek will start in the
center, He'll be aided in the frontcourt by
either returnee Tony Dickens or Brett Ax-
elrod, up from JV. Senior co-capt
Doug Kilmer, the team’s best outside
shooter, will start at off guard.

Aside from Brian Kauppila, the other
senior co-captain, the Danes bench is inex-
perienced, which could pose a problem
throughout the season. Kauppila’s value to

the team is evident in that he can substitute
in any postion,

On Sunday at 6 pm, the Great Danes
face RPI in the first round of the tourna-
ment, RPI has already lost to the Universi-
ty of Vermont and played Columbia last
night.

The Engineers return with 10 out of 13
players from last year’s squad. Senior
Mike Gianniccini, a senior from Vermont,
is a returning starter at guard. He is joined
by Staten Island's John Walsh, a
sophomore, in the backcourt.

The team’s center is senior Jack
Mahoney. The forwards are senior Bob
Fassett and sophomore Rob Roesch.

“RPI is favored because of the quality
of the returning players,” said Albany
head coach Dick Sauers, “but we'll still
show up.””

Immediately following this match,
Union and Skidmore play for a spot in
Monday night's finals.

Union lost three starters to graduation
from last year’s 16-11 squad. Two of
them, Ken D'Orasio and Kevin Bartlett,
were 1000 point scorers. They accounted
for at least 30 ppg, which is bound to be
missed,

“We lost a lot of scoring and reboun-
ding from last year said Union head
coach Bill Scanlon. ‘We are better defen-
sively this year. The big question mark is
from a scoring standpoint.”

Returning for Union are two sophomore

guards, Tom Beck at point, and Rob
Parento at off guard. 6'6 Mike Miller,
who is expected to start at center, is suffer-
ing with a hamstring problem. Ken Levine,
another guard, started in half of the games
last season.

“From a guard standpoint, we are fairly

Women cagers drop a pair in opening tourney

By Kristine Sauer
SPORTS EDITOR

The Albany State women’s basketball
team’s attempt to upgrade its schedule
may come back to haunt them. The Danes
are 0-2 after losing both games in this
weekend's Eastern Connecticut women's
tip-off tournament,

While Albany wasn’t able to come out in
the winner's circle over the weekend
against the New England powerhouses, all
wasn’t lost as the tournament proved that
they were in the right company.

After losing a close battle to E. Connec-
ticut, 72-68 in the first round, the women

gers missed walking away with the con-
solation game by a mere one point as Col-
umbia topped them 70-69.

“We have to look at the positive
things,” said Albany head coach Mari
Warner. ‘We played against wo good
clubs. Eastern Connecticut was Sth in New
England last season and Columbia is
strong. We certainly didn’t get

outmatched.”

With fifteen seconds left on the clock
Albany was ahead 69-68 after Lori Bayba
sank two free throws,” but Colum!
Christine Tyer hit with a basket four
seconds later to lift Columbia over Albany
70-69.

Albany called an immediate time out,
went into the game, was able to get a shot
off, but didn’t score.

The leading scorer of the game was Col-
umbia’s Ellen Bossert with 27 points. For
Albany, Bayba led with 20 points,
shooting 80 percent from the free throw
ine. Guard Rainny Lesane followed with
15 points.

Against Eastern Connecticut in the first
round the Danes trailed 38-31 at the end of
the first half. Albany found itself in a
worse predicament as the host team took
an 18 point lead in the final half.

‘The Danes rallied to within 2 points with
16 seconds remaining. After a critical tur-
nover E, Connecticut went to the free

throw line and scored two more to end the
game 72-68.

“We had the opportunities, we just
didn’t convert," reflected Warner.

Albany's scoring was well-rounded as
four players registered in the double
figures.

Lesane led with 15 points, sophomore
Cindy Densen followed with 14, then
Bayba and Diane Fernantis with 10 apiece.
High scorer of the game was E. Connec-
ticut's forward Chris Donnell with 17
points.

“The tournament points out real quick-
ly what we need to work on,” said
Warner. “The turnover situation is one,
another is creativity in our offense. We're
not shooting nearly enough from the out-
side and our decisions to take the shots
aren't good."

Warner also said she was proud of the
way the team fought back when they were
behind. This is a position they shouldn't
continually get themselves in,

“Another problem is with the intensity
of play not being considered throughout
the game," said Warner. “As a coach 1
have to try to figure out what it is that gets
a team to play when they have to and what
it is that will make them play the entire
game that way."

‘The Danes went 23-4 last season and
were disappointed when they failed to get
an NCAA bid. That resulted in a beefing
up of their schedule, adding this tourna-
ment and a few other tough opponents, In
the long run these two losses could hurt
their dream of an NCAA bid,

“1 would much prefer to start off like
this and build up stronger and stronger so
at the end of the season we are where we
should be,"* concluded Warner adding,
“I'd rather find it out now and have time
to work on it.”

‘The women cagers’ next game is on
December 2 at Skidmore at 7 p.m. They
follow that with their SUNYAC opener at
Cortland on the 4th, a

Excitement raged through the

A new rule initiated this year
was the extension of the crease.

“There were no really easy

“The referees were very strict,

Danes stop Panthers, Dudek to win ECAC title

By Mike MacAdam
ASSOCIATE SPORTS EDITOR

When the Albany State Great Danes
shut out Wagner College, 15-0, two weeks.
ago, they knew their season would be ex-
tended by at least one more game. Soon
after, they were disappointed to find out
that that game would be the ECAC North
Championship game at Plymouth State,
and not an NCAA playoff game against
Union,

‘What they didn't know, though, was
that their season would actually be extend-
ed by two games,

The first game occurred in the first half
of the Plymouth State game, a 21-0
whitewash by the Panthers,

But it was a brand new ballgame in the
second half, and it took Wayne Anderson
‘only 16 seconds to run the opening kickoff
into the endzone, touching off the
fireworks that gave Albany State a 33-21
victory.

Albany State head coach Bob Ford of-
fered an explanation for the halftime
turnaround.

“Great halftime speech, huh?" Ford
joked. ‘Actually, I went into the
bathroom, | think Denis Murphy and
Scott Dmitrenko said a few things. | just
told them that all year long they've found
a way to win, and that they had to find a
way to win now,’*

‘The reason for all the halftime frustra-
tion was the performance of Plymouth
State's All-American tailback, Joe Dudek,
who finished the game with 265 yards on
34 carries. The Danes spotted Plymouth
State a touchdown early when a Panther
fumble recovery on Albany's 30 yard line
led to a score three plays later by running
back Connell Daniel from two yards out,

Dudek added a touchdown run of three

yards in the second quarter which broke
Walter Payton’s NCAA career record for
points scored of 464, He added another
touchdown, this time from two yards out,
giving him 474 career points on 79
touchdowns,

The only thing that could stop Dudek in
the first half was his own teammates
penalties, which brought back many of his
long runs, including a 55 yard touchdown
seamper that was negated by a procedure
penalty.

“SH was the best runner Ihave ever fac
ed,”" said linebacker Dmitrenko. “He
looked like a Division I back."

While the Dane defense had their hands
full with Dudek, the offense didn’t tend
much support by squandering many third
down and short yardage situations and by
fumbling, The offense only had the ball

Jong enough to run 18 plays.

Halftime lockerroom tirades by defen-
sive end Murphy, always an emotional
player, and by Dmitrenko, who was acting
‘out of character, apparently was what the
Danes needed to wake themselves up after
the flat first half.

“Denis was going bananas, throwing
helmets all over the place, just going
nuts," said wide receiver John Donnelly,
who caught two touchdown passes in the
fourth quarter. ‘We didn’t really get
pumped up for this game, and the frustra-
tion really built up by halftime.”

“*L came into the lockerroom a little late,
and I guess Denis Murphy was already
yelling at the guys, and I don’t know what
came over me," said Dmitrenko. “I threw
my helmet into a locker, which is un-
characteristic of me; I've never done

anything like that before.”

“They were pretty upset," understated
Anderson, “I don’t know if it was because
they're seniors, or because we've never
been run on like that before, and maybe
they felt personally responsible.”*

The two defensive stars’ ‘speeches’
amplified what was going on through
everyone else’s minds though, said Ander-
son, and his 90 yard kickoff return to start
the second half was the pivotal play behind
the Danes’ rally.

When asked if he was looking to score a
touchdown or just put the Danes in decent
field position, Anderson unabashedly ad-
mitted, ‘I was looking for the touchdown,
[wanted to do something that would get us
on the board,”

Ford emphasized the importance of the
immediacy with which Anderson's
touchdown was scored.

“His return was the catalyst that
generated some offense and got us on the
scoreboard,” said Ford. “And the fact
that it happened so quickly really put us
back in the game.”

According to Dmitrenko, the return also
signalled the death knell for Dudek and the
Plymouth State offense as well.

“We've told the offense all year to just
put some points on the board,
Dmitrenko, whose second half heroics
made him the ECAC co-defensive player
of the week. “That's when the defense stif-
fens up.”

That it did, allowing the offense to get
back on track.

Dave Soldini went off tackle for 24
yards and a touchdown with 9:49 remain-
ing in the third quarter to bring the Danes
to within a touchdown,

UAS investment monies linked to South Africa

By lan Clements
STAFF WRITER

While many SUNYA students are still
celebrating the recent divestment victory at
SUNY Central downtown, University
Auxiliary Services (UAS) has been in-
vesting funds in companies that do
business in South Africa as part of their
normal budget-balancing and investment
practices,

Through its long-term investments,
UAS owns stock in companies such as Ex-
xon and IBM, which’ have facilities in
South Africa. UAS places investment
funds in two institutions, the Common
Fund and the Key Trust Management Ac-
count, said General Manager E, Norbert
Zahm. Those institutions choose which
companies will be invested in.

‘The Common Fund invests its clients’
funds in compar les that operate in South
Africa with some qualifications, said its
president, George Keane.

“We have investments in companies but
we don’t know whether or not they have
investments in South Africa,” said Alan
Volkenant, a senior vice-president of Key
Trust.

“We are willing to invest our stock only
in companies that have subscribed to the
Sullivan Principles," Keane said. The
principles are guidelines established for
American business protect the rights
of theit South’ Africah employees, They,
aré‘named after the Philadelphia minister
whorestablished chem.

Crifics of the Sullivan Principles have
said that no matter how integrated blacks
and whites are in the workplace, the laws
of South Africa force segregation outside
the plants’ gates.

“We would own stock in Exxon or
IBM...provided they followed these prin-
ciples,” Keane said.

“If we don’t maintain
a high level of
investment we’re not
going to maintain a
high level of return.”’

— E. Norbert Zahm

The Common Fund is a non-profit
organization which pools the investment
funds of-approximately 600 educational
institutions and support service organiza-
tions, such as UAS, according to Keane.
The funds are combined so that. the
member institutions can gain access to the
kind of top-notch business advice usually
available only to large investors, he
explained.

Keane seid a special fund would be
established in January for those institu-
oN ea Awant:to invest in “companies

lo not-have. employees; offices, or
plants in ay ‘Africa.”-About 150 major
U.S. corporations will not be eligible for
this “South Africa Free Fund,” including
General Motors, Exxon, Te
. “It's a very substantial
limitation,” he said.

‘Approximately 200 smaller U.S. com-
panies will also be excluded from the
South Africa Free Fund, Keane said.

‘Common Fund members have not been
informed of the Free Fund since it has yet
to be officially established, said Keane.
The decision to join the Free Fund lies with
each institution’s board of trustees or
board of investors, explained Keane.

According to Volkenant, Key Trust does
not make investment decisions based on
political concerns unless clients request
that certain issues be considered when their
monies are invested.

“Those clients hold very. divergent

Trust may have strong moral positions on
those issues, we can’t very well impose
those moral positions on clients whose
resources we are investing."”

If a client asked that its funds not be in-
vested in certain companies, he said, ‘I’m
sure that any specific requests of that
nature would be honored. Key Trust has to
be accountable to each investor” and en-

Council decides to let Daltrey play

By Angelina Wang
STAFF WAITER

The upcoming Roger Daltrey concert
was placed in jeopardy for a few minutes
Wednesday night, when Central Council
debated over whether or not to use its
power to freeze the budget of University
Concert Board.

Council’s debate, which was never
finally voted on, was a response to UCB
setting its own ticket prices of $17 and $20
, which violates Student Association tax
policy. The policy states there should be a
differential of $5 between prices charged
to SUNYA students and the general public
for any ticket even over $8.

the fact they were never informed by SA
Controller Eric Schwartzman, who
should have come before Council to ask
for a waiver for UCB, rather than the ac-
tual rule-breaking.

“I didn’t feel the necessity of granting a
waiver for a show that wouldn't come
off,"’said Schwartzman. The concert
had only been confirmed a little over a
week ago, he said. ‘* It was too late to
form Council then,” he added.

The consensus of Council was not to
force the cancellation of the Daltrey con-
cert, which would have cost SA over
$38,000, the $35,000 paid to Daltrey plus
expenses. ““The purpose of this bill is not
to not have Daltrey go on. I do want it to

Roger Daltrey will play the Palace Thursday, Dec. 12,

0 on,” said Steve Landis, who brought
the bill to Council.

Steven Russo, Internal Affairs Chair

said, “This might be the wrong way of do-
ing this, We have a contract with Daltrey,
and committment with the Palace
Theater.”*
Colonial Quad representative Jeff Rosen
said, “We're making assumptions here.
Get the facts first. It'll look like we just
want our own way.”

Landis accepted a friendly amendment

freezing UCB’s budget after all expenses
for Roger Daltrey were paid. The amend-
ment would have allowed the concert to go
on as scheduled.
“There are some valid points being
made here. I side more that we are acting
hastily," said Larry Hartman, Student Ac-
tion Chair.

Mark Seligson, president of UCB, heard
of the controversy and attended the
meeting to explain his position before
Council . "The show was not confirmed
until last Wednesday. Eric Schwartzman
was called as soon as I knew. I didn't get
any halts, I don't see why Concert Board
should be penalized for this," said
Seligson.

“Mark Seligson and his group have
given as an explaination of what happen-
ed. We can’tbadgerEric Schwartzman any
longer,” said Irwin Weinstein, Student
‘Community Committee Chair.

“{'m withdrawing this bill. My intent
for the bill was to get them here, and tell

a

sure the “growth of his investment,” he
said.

Zahm said he was unaware of Key
Trust’s policy. “It’s up to them to decide”
where investments are made, he said,

As of June 30, said Zahm, UAS had
provided $273,766 of its long-term in-
vestments funds to the Common Fund and
$211,287 to Key Trust.

Long-term investments are made to off-
set depreciation losses, explained Zahm.
Monies earned through these investments
are used (o replace and repair equipment
and facilities owned or managed by UAS,
he said. UAS is responsible for remodell-
ing cafeterias on the quads and in the
Campus Center, he noted,

UAS “really does need the interest
{earned from investments] to exist," Zahm
said. “If we don't maintain a high level of
investment we'te not going to maintain a
high level of return.”

UAS is a non-profit organization which
is not a part of the State University of New

ding to Zahm. UAS supports campus
organizations and events, such as Five
Quad Volunteer Ambulance Service,
Mayfest and Commencement, he said, in
addition to providing campus food and
vending services.

To meet short-term needs, such as
payroll, UAS invests in commercial paper,
Zahm said. Commercial paper refers to
short-term notes issued by business firms
and finanice that wistt'to borrow money.

The amount of money held in commer-
sial paper “goes up and down substantial-
ly during the fiscal year," he said, UAS
had $1,100,000 invested in commercial
paper as of June 30, Zahm said.

vests is also linked to South Africa, though
