76 dua} meet record last year.
Tyrone Quinn, heavyweight, who iy
sure to improve on his 1-9 mark last
year, and 150 pound Nick Zubulake
who was 1-12 last year,

Of the 15 freshmen wrestlers,
seven of them were award-winning
grapplers in high school, and all were
team captains during their career.

Freshman Paul Gemmiti while
wrestling for Mohonasen High
School, won four varsity letters and
was named Most Valuable Player
every year, Gemmiti will compete in
the 118 pound class,

The question of whether toallow a
recreational fieldhouse financing
referendum to come before student
voters will be decided by Central
Council tomorrow night,

The fieldhouse, which would be
used to ease overcrowding in the
gym,is expected to cost ap-
proximately $2 million. The propos-
ed referendum calls tor a mandatory
student (ec of $13.50 a semester fora
period of twenty years,

The referendum is the result of a
study conducted during the last nine
months by the Student Recreational
Center Committee, The final dollar
figure was arrived at by the com-
mittee’s decision that a structure
similar to Boston College's
recreational complex would be most
suitable for the SUNYA campus.

Included in the referendum is a
stipulation that requires a voter tur-
nout of 40 per cent, Of this 40 per
cent, a minimun of 60 per cent must
be in favor of the referendum. “The
committee felt that we could not go
forward (on the fieldhousej with
anything less than a mandate," ex-
plained committee chairman Robert
Squatriglia of the Office of Student
Life.

In an elfort to increase voter tur-
nout, the proposal to Council con-
tains plans for a new voting
procedure, said Squatriglia, Com-
puter cards will be distributed to
students over a number of days.
Students will then fill in their social
security number,and vote.

The cards will be processed twice.
Vhe first computer run will record

social security numbers to ascertain
whether the student is presently
enrolled and whether he has already
voted. When this is completed, the
social security numbers will be torn
off the ballots to insure secrecy.

‘The votes will then be tabulated,
The referendum will fail if less than
4,000 students vote or if, given at
least a 4,000 student turnout, less
than 2,400 students vote “yes for the
fieldhouse.

The design for the fieldhouse was
chosen after examining various
alternatives presently being used on
other campuses, The Boston College
design was selected after the com-
mittee rejected a ‘bubble’ concept
used at SUNY Bulfalo as not being
permanent enough.

Architectural Estimates

The architect of the Boston
College structur, Dan Tulley, visited
SUNYA. last semester. Tulley said
his buildings can be constructed in
about nine months, He estimates
that his buildings presently cost
between $34-841 a square foot. Has-
ed on a committee's decision that a
fieldhouse of about $0,000 square
feet is needed, the target figure of $2
million was reached.

The fieldhouse, if built, would
contain four indoor tennis courts
with the ability to expand to six.

Handball, paddleball and racquet-
ball courts would be built as well as
4 one-eighth of a mile track. Locker
rooms and saunas would be provid-
ed in addition toa number of smaller
area activities such as billiards, gym-
nastics and weight rooms

In addition to its athletic func-

tions, the fieldhouse would provide
seating for concerts, It is estimated
that the fieldhouse would be able to
seat between 4,500 and 5,500 people.

A referendum is required due toa
current SUNY freeze on the con-
struction of capital projects. In
1971, SUNYA was three weeks away
trom the approval of a $3 million
recreational center bond when the
freeze was imposed, said Squatriglia,
The center would have been similar
to a structure at SUNY College at
Potsdam.

“During the summer we met with
two vice-chancellors,” Squatriglia,
“When we told them about the plan
for students financing the fieldhouse
they said we were on the right trac

Gun Hearings To Begin Today

by Thomas Martello

Vhe question of whether security
olficers should be allowed (o carry
firearms will be discussed today at
the first of three University Com-
munity Council open hearings.

the discussion will focus on a
proposal by security officers to

modify SUNY A's Firearms Policy.
Vhe modification would permit of-
ticers assigned to motorized patrol
and the evening desk to carry
firearms, according to Director of
the Department of Public Safety
James Williams. Currently, 12a! the
force's 48 olficers are authorized to

rove

Security Director James Williams supports increased arming of

officers on campus, A dozen university policemen now carry guns,

carry firearms.

This proposal has met with stu-
dent opposition, according to a
number of Central Council
members.

The proposed modification stems
from a letter two otticers wrote to
President Emmett B. Fields re-
questing that he allow patrol officers
to carry firearms on duty and on
patrol. The letter, which was sent to
Fields Oct. 15, was in reaction to two
incidents with which the olficers felt
ill-equipped to deal unarmed,

One incident involved the
shooting out of headlights with a
handgun.

“The officers could have been shot
tor their ettorts,” said Williams,
“Lhey were unarmed officers.

The other incident was the arrest
of @ non-student who had in his
possession a shotgun and a loaded
pistol.

“That was a real gun with real
bullets and they were two unarmed
otficers, We've had other things
these two incidents were the straws
that broke the camel's back,” said
Williams,

Ina letter to Acting Vice President
for Finance and Business John Har-
tigan, Williams supported the of-
ficers’ request. Williams outlined
umber of serious crimes that have
occurred on campus in the past five
years and termed that request “not
unreasonable.” He also modified the

not printed to his satisfaction,

This new policy is the result of a
resolution, passed by a vote of 23-0-
2, in the Nov. 19 session of the stu-
dent senate, Perined by Seniitor Al
Sacks and seconded by David
Higgins, the resolution is poficy for a
year :

“Whereas the students of this
college uphold the idea of freedom of
the press

Therefore we do hereby
resolve: that any student of this
college submitting any article or
letter to be primted in the Racquette,
and meeting the legal deadline for
entry, shall not be denied the right to
have his article printed. Material
deemed necessary to censor or alter
in any way which changes the
general intent or purpose of that urti-
cle may be done for the purpose of
avoiding possible legal repercussions
which may subsequently, as 4 result
ot its printing, be directed toward the
Racquette staff or the SGA,

‘Should the author of the article or
letter disagree as to the necessity of
the proposed changes, the author
may challenge the decision of the

Racquette through the court, The
decison of the court shall be final,
Any reason tor non-publication of
an article or letter other than that of
foreseeable legal action taken
against the Racquette or SGA shall
constitu an unreasonuble breach of
freedom of access to the press as a
medium tor student expression.
Freezing Funds

Such a breach shall result infreez-
ing of tunds to the Racquette
newspaper by the student senate,

In case more material is submitted
than could be printed, because of
space limitations, the Racquette, in
order to meet advertising
obligations, has the right to limit the
number of letters submitted. They
then may print those letters the
following week if the author of the
letter wishes.’

According to Senator Sacks,
“Right now the SGA could freeze
anyone's budget, It unything, this
resolution limits the SGA's power to
freeze the Racquette's budget by set-
ting guidelines for such action.”

Sacks believes that a change in
policy is needed. “A number of
students mentioned to me that they
had submitted articles that were not
Printed. t'am their senator; and they
asked if there was anything { couk
do."

Critics of the resolution have
ted that the new policy will enable
anyone to publish anything or to
freeze the budget. Sacks responded
by saying, “I'he resolution said ar-
ticles and letters, I'm sure the senate
would not do anything so absurd as
to to treeze funds, if someone sub-
mitted something like a phone
book.”

Directly opposing this point of
view, Editor-in-Chiel of the Rac-
quette, Bill LaRue had this to say,"
feel the resolution has violated sec-
tion 17 of the student code,
Theretore 1 will be protesting the
resolution in next week's senate s¢
sion by submitting a new resolution
which will nulity the other.”

Degrading Quality

He believes, “I'he resolution, if’ en-
forced, will cause a vast degradation
of the quality of the Racquette. Pre-
sent editorial policies sufticiently
portect the student's access to the
Racquette,"

LaRue also cited new editorial
policies voted in at a meeting of the
editorial board on October 3 of this
year.

The new rules state:

1) Anyone submitting a story has
the right to confer with the editor
about changes in content,

Vice President of Research Louls Salkever sald Curtis Hemenway's
destructive attitudes hurt Dudley Observatory.

by Kenneth Levine

“Hell, 1 don't mind being fired,”
said. SUNYA Professor Curtis
Hemenway, “but | domind when the

Analysis A disagreement

between Hemenway
and Vice President for Research
Louis Salkever and a history of what
Space Astronomy Lab Director
Jerry Weinberg termed “personal
clashes" preceeded Hemenway's di
missal late last spring.

Hemenway is the director of
Dudley Observatory and has been
teaching courses in Astronomy and
Space Science at SUNYA tor 13
years.

Hemenway has accused the un-
iveristy of copying a Dudley Obser-
vatory research proposal, of
violating union regulations by dis-
missing tenured faculty members
before non-tenured members, of
retrenching the Astronomy Depart-
ment without giving taculty

members a chance to testify in
defense of their department, and of
dismissing him as an Astronomy
professor even though he was-hired
by the Physics department and
should therefore be allowed to stay
on.

Hemenway said he was furious

with Salkever when he found out
that the university's Space
Astronomy Lab had copied Dudley
‘Observatory's proposal for a project
for micro-wave scattering
measurements and had subsequently
submitted the copy with two minor
changes to the Air Force Oltice of
Scientific Research, Consequently,
the Air Force received two nearly
identical proposals from the two
organizations.
Ikever described the duplica-
tion of proposals differently, “It
anybody 1s stealing a proposal it is
Dudley.”

Salkever said the proposal was
written by two men, Krank Giovane
and Donald Schuerman who resign-
ed trom Dudley Observatory
because they relused to work under
Hemenway and were subsequently
employed at the university's Space
Astronomy Lab, He said the Air
Force was “interested in these two
people and in no one at Dudley,”

Hemenway claims the university
does not have the equipment

necessary for the project: but
Salkever said they have “some of the
necessary equipment.”

Hemenway said that the proposal
controversy will, essentially put
Dudley out of business,

Salkever attributed Dudley's loss
of business to mismanagement on
the part of Hemenway. He referred
to Hemenway's attitude as one of
“wreck if you can't rule.”

Hemenway is currently pursuing
the possibility of suing Salkever for
inder. ‘This controversy centers
around letters written by Salkever to
the Air Force,

Salkever said that Hemenway
thinks that slander consists of the
“mere mention” that Giovane and
Schuerman resigned because they
refused to work under him. “That's
not slander,” said Salkever, “that’s
fact,”

Director of the University's Space
Astronomy Lab, Jerry Weinberg,
denied another of Hemenways's ac-
cusations: that the university abs im-
porperly dismissed tenured tuculty
before non-tenured faculty. This ac~
cusution was made with regard to

Weinberg who has been atliliated
with the university for three years
and who is classified as an “adjunct
professor.”

ALBANY, (AP) Governor
Hugh Carey says he views the

FILM SUIT
‘The Phillip Morris Company is
threatening to take legal action
against a British film: production
firm that has featured the famous
“Marlboro Man” inananti-smoking
documentary,

Matboro

The documentary in question con-
tains short segments of the Marlboro
cowboy interspersed with filmed in-
terviews of real-life cowboys who are
dying of lung cancer and
emphysema,

One of the segments features a real
cowboy being interviewed on
horseback while tubes of oxygen,
connected to a special tank on his
saddle, run into his nose. The cow-
boy reportedpy developed terminal
emphysema as a direct result of
smoking.

A Phillip Morris executive says
that advertising footage of the
Marlboro man in Marlboro Country
were provided to the British com-
pany “in good faith.” Says the ex-
ecutive, Frank Saunders: "We were
had, sandbugged and doublecross-
ed.”

the film's release, CBS's "60

Minutes" has indicated it may
televise portions of the film in the US

SEEDOMETER
‘A Tulane University biologist
reports she has discovered that seeds
have a mysterious way of "knowing"
when the moon is full, and even of
“knowing” weeks in advance that a

hurricane is approaching.

Doctor Jane Panzer says a three-
year research project has found that
‘seeds placed in a liquid solution ab-
sorb certain amounts of water,
depending on the cycle of the moon,
When the moon is full, she says, the
water intake doubles.

Panzer states the lunar pull is not
the only force apparently altecting
seeds. She says that three weeks
before hurricane Carmen struck the
New Orleans area, all the seeds in her
laboratory began “acting strangely.”

“The biologist told Organic Gar-
dening and Farming magazine that
most of the seeds quit absorbing
water two weeks prior to the
hurricane and then resumed normal
activity several weeks alter the storm
had passed.

FAREWELL TO ARMS

A sign of the times we live in is a
recent invention out i Chicago
which designers are suggesting may
be the latest fad in wearing apparel.

The invention is a hand grenade,
which can easily be stashed in a
pocket or purse. When its wearer
pulls the pin on this hand grenade,
however, the weapon doesn’t ex-
plode, Instead, it emits a shrill, pier-
cing wail that is impossible to shut
olt.

The inventors, Ho Jaremus and
Manuel Goodman, think that
women and men around the country
will want to curry the urban hand
grenade as a defense against possible
muggers and other like-minded at-
tackers, The idea is that the would-
be assailants would flee quickly
when the weapon begins shrieking,

Now that the woman's place no longer need

as one might wish, the changes in societal
patterns and sex roles has left women with
special and unique needs in their/our efforts
to understand and cope with these changes.
University women, for example—and- the
term now includes mothers, daughters, wives,
even grandmothers—need a focal
college campus: one which would
women’s needs and concerns, which would
offer activities, programs, and services of vital
relevence to women, and which would be
geared to all University women.

Unlike other universities, the ratio of
females to males at SUNYA is approximately

‘other SUNY campuses—Buffalo, Oswego,

SUNYA, supposedly an aware and educated
campus community in the capital of New York
State, somehow decided that a comparable
resource for our dwn women is unnecessary
deemed it unworth fighting for?

In past years, many programs aimed
primarily at women have been attempted —
informal programs such as the estehlishment
of consciousness raising groups, reading
groups, mini-courses in areas of speci

ccralis), and cotlechouses, These have not bee

Programs could be successfully implemented

Speakerseand groups which might have at-
tracted large numbers of women and men have
often not done so, for the same reason that

energetic efforts

To the Editor

You may have noticed that there is an
energy conservation movement on campus. In
conjunction with our Environment class, we
have decided to take action against a serious
problem which needed attention. Our project
started with a student survey that included
questions concerning possible energy cuts and
redistribution. Our results showed that 92% of
the students were concerned about energy use
and willing to make a sacrifice, Other results
were: the majority of the students use their
fights and other electrical appliances _un-
necessarily and that high percentages of the
students agreed with the energy cuts already
made on campus (including cold water
washing machines, dimmed lights and lowered
temperatures). Students also suggested the
transfer of energy use from places such as the
fountains, dorm hallway and lounge lights,
and empty classrooms to certain places where
they feel more lights are needed for their safe~
ty. Students wanted more lights at the

SUNYA bus stops and paths leading to them,
A. between quads und the podium, the podium

itvelf and the parking lots. Students also
iagested separate utility bills to make people
aware of how much energy they use

Aside from the student survey we put up a
series of posters reminding students that they
could help by shutting off their lights. We aicy
met with Utility Chief Wayne Allen of the
SUNYA Power Plant to discuss energy use on
Campus. We were very well received and he
supplied us with an overwhelming amount of
useful information. We were surprised to find
out that over the past three years, energy use
on campus has decreased by 20%. This is due
to more efficient planning within the Power
Plant, Allen stated that the main reason for
the energy cuts was monetary, but that he did
care personally about energy conservation as
an environmental issue. He hoped that our
campaign would lead to community and stu.
dent involvement in this area. Allen admitted
that a major problem with continuing energy
conservation measures on campus was the
shortage of staff and funds in his department
The amount of paperwork that is reyuired
(including monthly reports about how much
‘energy has been saved) takes time away trom
many other projects,

Many of Allen's suggestions for continued
‘energy cuts and redistribution were similar 1
the responses of the students we surveyed. At
‘our second meeting with Wayne Allen we
showed him the results of our survey with
hope that our campaign could have some

university center that acknowiedges its)
traditional obligations for teaching, research,
and service to the community must be
questioned in the light of such an act. Students
must expect that they will receive a superior
liberal education from one of the major SUNY
centers. The fact that an Art major is
no longer offered in this center diminishes that
expectation. The study of the history of art isa
fundamental requisite of liberal studies. The
intrinisic values of culture must be researched
and studied. The responsibility for eliminating
such study must contend with a horizon larger
than practicality or economics. There are
silent but telling monuments that represent the
greatness of what man aspires to and achieves,
‘They mark what is highest in man. They repre-
sent truth. And it is the destruction of truth
that marks our horizon.

effect. Through our surveys, posters, and this
letter, we hope that we have increased student
awareness of the energy problem and offered
ways they can help. Wayne Allen agreed with
us that personal energy sacrifice does make
difference. Conserve Energy! We can do it if
we all help.

been times when you felt that nothing was bad.

Lite is an interesting thing to look at in
terms of nothing, When babies are born they
‘are completely dependent on others. An infant
can do nothing by itself. Based on this, it
would seem that nothing its inate.

As the child grows older it becomes bored
with nothing and learns to do some things,
Having been “nothinged out” at a youngage, a
child will do less and less nothing, and what
the child doesn’t do will be carefully disguised
as something.

This dynamic process continues unabated
until a certain point. At some age, usually
when the offspring becomes financially in-
dependent from the parents, the process is
reversed, ‘The person continues to do
something, ic. work, in the hope that he or she
will be able to do nothing at frequent intervals
(vacations) or alter a certain age (retirement).
So, the lite cyele seems to be nothing followed
by something and concluded by nothing.
‘Overall, it seems that nothing is the dominant
force in lite,

Freedom of the Press?

The bicentenniat year is coming to an end. And so too will end the
fireworks and parades, the front lawn flags and television specials. But
as the ceremonies vanish, the principles underlying the celebration must
emerge renewed in strength. Among those principles is freedom of the
Presi :
The student senate of the SUNY College at Potsdam last month
invoked restrictions on the student press there in the name of freedom of.
the press. This isa strange paradox, since the senate’s resolution serves
only to hinder that freedom.

The senate's restrictions strip the paper's editors of powers essential to
the publication's journalistic integrity. The restrictions support a type of
freedom, in the sense that students will freely be able to have their
material published. At the same time, however, they shatter the
newspaper's constitutional right to function as a truly free press.

It is a journalist's responsibility, a newspaper's responsibility, to
discover and transmit the truth. Inherent in that responsibility is the task
of deciding what is, and what is not, the truth. The student senate at
Potsdam is telling the editors that they will no longer be able to make
that decision. The senate resolution dictates that anything submitted by
any student, providing it appears legal, must be printed. So who needs
editors? They just need a libel lawyer to review the articles before they're
run-off,

A newspaper must be free to objectively report on news items its
editors deem relevant to its readership. To avoid bias, distortion and
contusion, decisions concerning what is covered and how it is covered
must rest with the editors, not with arms of the government, individual
students, or specific interest groups.

Certainly a student newspaper should strive to reflect varying points
of view in its opinion pages and promote student contributions. But take
away a paper's editorial sovereignty, its ability to sift through the
garbage and extract the truth, to discriminate between fact and opinion,
and what will remain is an opinion sheet—an opinion sheet which
pretends to be a newspaper, which has no credibility, and which
befuddles its readers with contradictory fabrications of the truth.

A newspaper must make its owncontent decisions. Newspapers which
make such decisions poorly are poor newspapers. Publications which
make no such decisions at all aren't newspapers.

Perhaps there will be some freedom at Potsdam. Students will have
their material published. But there will be no freedom of the press, simp-
ly because there will be no press.

Educational Priorities?

Students in New York State are still reeling
from the impact of the fiscal crises. Most saw
tuitions rise, while services declined. Although
the CUNY schools were hardest hit,no schoo!
escaped completely. In many cases the worst
may yet be coming.

To date, the student strategy tocounter cuts
is based on mass demonstrations coupled with
legislative lobbying forays. Neither have prov-
ed very effective. The demonstrations petered
‘out last spring after a few isolated strikes, sit-
ins and protest rallies. The mass march on the
capitol was close to a disaster and Spring lob-
bying efforts made little impact on budget
planners whose work was largely complete by
the previous January.

Our thesis is not that tactics should be aban-
doned completely but rather new leverage
points must be sought. Instead of simply
pleading for continued or increased financial
assistance, student organizations must take
the political offensive, aggressively and con-
tinuosly. They must do so in several ways.

This year's student voter registration drive
was a start, But as successful as that drive
was—80,000 new names added to the voter
rolls—cooperation among various student
organizations was lacking. This due in part to
inexperience and varied levels of group
sophistication. However, rivalry and jealousy
were also present. These have to be eliminated,

if progress is to continue,

In between elections much needs to be done.
‘A more sophisticated approach to lobbying
must be taken, Lobbying must be done year
round keeping students informed of events in
the Albany area. Special efforts must be made
to form grass roots compus lobbying
organizations. The pressure points must be
touched in October and November while
budgets are still soft. Furthermore, recogni
tion must be given to the proposition that
money wasted on bureaucratic boondoggles
or “lulus” or te supported nuclear
reprocessing facilities means money that can
never go to education or other social services.
Student researchers working in Albany are
well-equipped to root out this type of abuse.

Finally, within the education budget itself
care must be taken to trim to the bone high
salaried administrative personnel, Emphasis
must be placed on delivery of learning services
rather than smooth administration, For
students, this means careful analysis of central
budgets to insure that the fat is cut, before the
meat is sliced.

Despite all these elforts, some cuts probably
will be necessary, Rationalization then, accor-
ding to educational priorities, is of prime im-
portunce, But a priority for one may be a lux-
ury for another. Therefore, students should be
sure that when the priorities are ranked, their
interests are high on the list. Atter all, students
are the raison d'etre of schools.

Home Sweet Turkey

by Cary Seott

1 remember this place last week, when
everyone was talking about getting the hell out
of here and going home for lots of good food
and a well deserved vacation. What I want to
know is, if everyone was so anxious to go
home, how come as soon as they got there, all
they did was make plans to go out? I mean,
you weren't in your house five minutes before
your trigger finger got “itchy” for some dial-

the neighborhood, but some of us called peo-
ple we used to hate in high school. 1 guess we
have to reestablish our “youth”, feel our
“roots” once again, 40 to speak. But, at least
say hello to your mother before you rush to the
phone, And have some pity for your younger
brothers and sisters, because all the calls for
the next few days are going to be for you from
your friends at home who also go through the
same madnes.

‘One would think that with the little ime we
do spend at home, we would be cheery and
helpful, but why waste any time? We strike up
the old family feuds even before Mom opens
up the suitcase and discovers i'sempty except
for dirty underwear and unopened textbooks,
‘After managing to get through dinner, prov-
ing to your parents that you haven't lost your
appetite; and “borrowing” some cash for the
evening, explaining that you've lost all the
money they've sent you, you rush out the door
and into the family car to make a quick
getaway. After all, there's so many things todo
at home that you can't do up at school—going
out drinking, for instance, or going to the
diner at two o'clock in the morning.

“The next day is Thursday, Thanksgiving, a
festive and happy occasion. Awakening to the
sounds of “long lost” relatives shouting at
some football game in the living room, you
decide it’s better not to tell your Auntie where
she can stuff her turkey, and you wash and

Gress for the big event, Naturally, all is
forgiven as toon as you present yourself
downstairs, and everyone makes a big fuss
cover the college person returning for the holi-
day. After a few quick phone calls to make
afrangements{or the latter part of the evening,
you take your place at the table, It'sa heck of a
lot easier to get through dinner if someone
remembered to bring the wine. After all, it is
Thanksgiving.

The next couple of days are spent shopping
for clothes, which is very rapidly rivaling lying
around and doing nothing as the favorite
college past-time. After another huge dinner
of that fowl bird, it's out on the town once
again. Before

school, Even though there were some rough
moments the past few days, the stomach
begins to tighten up and youcan actually feel
lump come into your throat (dramatic, huh?)
as you realize you're about to depart from all
that is near and dear to you. It's important to
try and arrange for your ride to leave Sunday
night, after dinner is over and you've had
coffee and cake with your parents, That way,
when you leave, it’s less painful because your
parents don't think you've left yet, you've
merely gone out for another night onthe town,
‘Then, when they finally realize that you're
reallv gone, they miss you deeply and begin
looking forward to the next time you come
home,

Meanwhile, back on the thruway, we're feel-
ing glad we got out of there with few
casualties, it's funny, but this week I've also
been hearing everybody talk about about how
anxious they are to get the hell out of here and
g0 home for some good food and a well
deserved rest, But 1 think that first, we could
all use a vacation, Remember, Christmas is
just around the corner.

RAAT RNA

By JEANNE SAIEWITZ
‘The University community is be-
rented to an exceptional produc-
tion of Anton Chekhov's
icomedy of wasted lives, “Uncle
Vanya” by the Lab Group directed
by James M. Symons. ‘The group,
made up of selected senior theater
majors and graduate students, is
currently performing the play as part
of a rotating repertory at SUNYA's
Lab Theater.

Performing Chekhov puts anadd-
ed strain on the actor, for Chekhov's
concern is showing life as it is, and in
life there is no “action”, only people.
The Lab Group, as a successtul
ensemble, docs an outstanding job of
bringing lite to the lost, ineffectual
characters, Individually and as a
group, they gracefully convey the
helplessness and hopelessness of life
inherent in Chekhov's work, with the
polished professionalism of the
finest college theater

All the actors have an obvious
theater presence, a seasoned ability
to handle themselves onstage with
sophistication and control. Steve
Vance beautilully portrays the
bitter, lonely Vanya in a sensitive
and powerful performance, He is a
picture of underlying desperation,
culminating in the explosive
shooting scene at the end of Act 111.
Vance actually becomes the
pathetically clumsy Vanya, who
loves in vain the beautilul Yelena.
He declaims the irony of his
motionless world, and slips in and
‘out of suicidal moods,

As Astrov, the hard-drinking doc-
tor who tries to save the vanishing
| wilderness, Paul Higgins is

searching, penetrative, and
questioning, He is one of the group's
more gracelul perlormers, able to
convey worlds of emotion with
either an outstretched arm or up-
lifted face,

Joyce Harra, as the young inno-
cent Sonia, has the enviable ability
to control an audience, She can in-
voke pain or sorrow on the audience
when she wants to, Ms. Farra, too,
can embrace the whole of an emo-
tion in a single gesture or expression;
her performance is perhaps the most
touching in the play.

Randy-Barbara Kaplan
successfully encompasses the “im-
possible lite” of the young, beautiful
Yelena, stifled in a marraige with a
sickly old man. Chris Paul is fine as
the aging pedantic scholar,
Serebriakov.

Carol Clas is appropriately mater-
nal as the gentle, loving Nyanya. Her
rhythmically-spoken lines bespeak
the properly-scheduled life she loves,

Whe quiet grandeur of old age is per-
sonified by Dorothy Gallagher, who
regally deties her own youthfulness

‘Although the inspired acting is the
play’s mainstay, it has other merits
to recommend it. A medal should go
to set designer David Morong, who
made eflicient use of the Lab

Theater's limitations. ‘Ihe settings
are simple and yet intricate. Atten-
tionis-paid to significant details, such
as a gracelully curved oil lamp, a
silver samovar, and a delicate lace
tablecloth, Period furniture is used
throughout, lending authentic
appeal.

‘The authenticity of the production
is enhanced by realistic costuming,

Chekhov’s Uncle Vanya
A Little Bit of Russia

impeccably designed by Lynda
Salsbury. Adding to the Russian
turn-of-the century’ mood is soft
balalaika music in between acts. The
total effect would have won
‘Chekhov's approval: an atmosphere
of beauty, tenderness and realism.

It is indeed a joy to see a
masterwork such as “Uncle Vanya”
performed with such finesse. The
Lab Group certainly has a tremen-
dous amount of talent. ‘Their win
ning performance will be repeated
‘on Wednesday and Friday at & p.m,
in the Lab Theater,

Saint Nick Visits Library

An exhibition based on Clement
Clarke Moore's poem, “A Visit from
. Nicholas” (The Night Before
Christmas), will be on display in the

library at ‘The University nt Albany
trom Monday, Dec. 6 (St. Nicholas
Day) through Jan, 6 (twellth
Night). ‘he famous poem first
appeared in “Ihe ‘roy Sentinel” in
1823.

The public is invited to view the
exhibition which is based on the ex-
tensive collection of Mrs. Sherman
Post Haight, of Litchtield, Conn.,
who has gathered the most impor-
tant items relating to the work,
originally composed as a Christmas
gilt for the poet's children. Included
ure items of local interest, materials
on Moore and his family, the sources
for the poem, cultural transforma-

|tion trom St. Nicholas to Santa

Claus, publishing history of the
Poem, and selections from the varied
formats in which the poem has been
issued

Several individuals and
organizations have ‘xen involved in
the project tor which the Otfice of
University Altairs supported
publication of the exhibition

tion has been exhibited at_mayor

The inspiration tor using Moore's

came from C. James Schmidt, direc-

tor of libraries. Vhere are several
themes: biography ol the poet, origin
of the famous work, development of

Nimoy, responding 10 a WSUA
question regarding whether he was
the one holding up the works, replied
somewhat cynically, “It the studio

without asking my permission.”
According to him, Paramount has

various stars doing the roles they
have established. Some of them were
lar fetched, such as the idea of lip
Walson playing Lt. Uhura,

But Leonard Nimoy’s more than
caught up in the Star Trek wave He
helped create it, He is, above all else,
an excellent actor. In reference to
how he first upproached the role of
Spock, he answered “There were
only certain clues that | could begin
with to help build the character
Ihere was obviously, designing the
eyebrows, the skin tone, the hair, the
ers, and so torth, Also, we know
that he was a military charaeter so
there was some sense of a military
background. Vhere is a certain kind
ol military tradition — posture,

Htitude, so there's some kind of
preparedness tor that,

Kirk, During the
round about

suppression of emotion, ‘Those are
the clues, essentially, that we started
with.

She only thing that was totally
vague was how does one perlorm as

does one function? And. that's
something that comes out of some
mystical personal chemistry. It's a
combination of people that you've
seen that you think might be usetut

other films that you've seen and
might be uselul, | he actor's job is to
build a charucter trom little bits and

Pups Take

by Rich Seligron

Freshman 6°!" guard Lynn
Pinkston of the Albany J.V. Pups
made use of a great opportunity last
Saturday night. With one second
remaining against R.P.1. at the Un-
iversity Gym, Pinkston took full ad-
vantage of the new dunk rule in
college games, and ‘slammed it
down’ to conclude a 69-58 comeback
victory for the Pups. ‘The win,added
to last ‘Thursday's victory over
Marist, 91-85, provided Albany with
an early season 2-0 record.

Albany's Rich Woods blocked
R.P.L.'s Tom Schwitter’s attempted
jumper with five seconds 10 be
played in the contest, ‘Then, guard
Keith Williams of the Pups
recovered the ball, and threw a
pertect over-the-shoulder pass to
Pinkston, who dribbled down the
court and stulfed the ball, drawing
loud cheers and applause from the
partisan fans,

This was the climax of a three
minute surge by the Pups, who for
the previous 37 minutes were “horri-
ble” according to head coach Hill
Austin, Austin commented on the
final second dunk, “It was a nice way
toend the game, especially the way it
was played; it dragged and dragged.”

Albany trailed at the half by eight
points, 32-24. Poor shots, turnovers
and disorganization all contributed
to lackluster play by the Pups. RPI’s
George Rogers and Ed Meyer kept
the Engineers ahead with fine out-
side shooting.

Ihe failure of Albany to do

First Two

anything right prompted Austin to
call a badly needed time-out with
7:09 left in the half. The Pups were
behind 26-16, and RPI was on an
eight point splurge.

Finally, with 5:44 left, the Pups
ended their scoring drought, as fleet
Craig Fields hit a short jumper,
Albany narrowed the gap to four,
24-24, with 2:52 elt, but Rogers
wasted no time and scored from the
outside, and the Pups went into the
lockerroom trailing,

The real excitement began with
only 4:44 lett in the contest, as Keith
Williams fed Woods who converted
the pass into a pretty reverse lay-up.
This put the Pups within two, $2-50.
Fouled on the play by RPL 6'7"
center John Wurster, Woods went to
the line and completed the three
point play.

On the short side of the score
throughout the game, Albany finally
took the lead, 53-52, when Pinkston
hit trom outside with 3:30 left, A
pressing man-to-man delense helped
the Pups forge ahead of the
Engineers.

RPI's last bucket of the night was
on a jumper by Schwitter with 1:06
lelt. Albany looked their sharpest in
the final minute as they reeled off
seven unanswered points. A great
pass by Franz to Pinkston, who
scored all of his nine points in the se~
cond halt, put the Pups ahead 67-58
The memorable dunk by Pinkston
climaxed the victory.

Woods and Franz were the high
scorers in this error-filled game,

scoring 16 and 15 points, respective-
ly. Coach Austin noted Franz’s great
all-around game, as he pulled down
15 rebounds as well.

In the Pups’ first victory of the
year over Marist, the last few
minutes of the game were also the
deciding ones. It was Albany's well-
executed fast break that put them
ahead to stay. Forward Jerry
Januszewski and guard Keith
Williams assisted Woods on lay-ups

Albany within four. Lajeunesse
committed an offensive foul soon
‘after —hia fourth — and was remov-
ed by Coach Ron Petro, It proved to
be fatal for the Foxes. With the 6-6
center out, followed by Jones a mo-
‘ment later, the Danes seemed to be in
constant possession of the ball,

But that wasn’t the only reason for
the Danes’ comeback, according to
Coach Sauers. “Their experience
made them tighten up when the
game got close,” he said.

Inany case, the ballgame was soon
‘out of reach, Alter Cavanaugh con-
verted off an offensive rebound,
Kevin Keane hit a driving layup to
tic the game at 57, Winston then con-
nected twice, Royal made a three-
point play and the Danes were never
headed.

1t was with 11 minutes lett in the
‘game that Marist finally broke the
streak, when Walter Janeczek sunk
two free throws. But by then it was
all over. Albany had found the range
‘and was passing the ball very well at
that point — finding the open man

casion

Marist came only as close as nine—
at 73-64 — belore the Danes broke
away for good. Guards Royal and

to no avail. Albany coasted to the

ten of ten, the latter on ten of twelve.
Lajeunesse (§-12trom the floor), was

game.”

No big factor was necessary in the
Cortland attair. Albany was simply
the better team. Cesare began things
with a give-and-go basket off a

layup and Royal hit two tree throws
to give Albany a 6-2 lead.

Manpower shortages, the inclu-

failures, and the action of the state
legislature in regards to TAP.
eligibility have all been cited by
HESC President Eileen Dickinson
‘as prime factors contributing to the
problem.

On Nov. 21, New York State
Senate Majority Leader Warren re-
quested that a subcommittee of the
Senate Committee on Higher
Education conduct a “quick study of
the apparent breakdown” in the
processing of TAP awards.

“The committee will be looking
into the causes for the delay in sen-
ding out TAP award centificates,”
explained Anderson's press
secretary Richard Roth. “Senator
Anderson made his request after a
number of constituents expressed
concern over failure to receive
awards.”

The subcommittee will conduct
the last of its three scheduled
meetings in Syracuse on Monday.
According to Roth, the subcom-

the blaze, Monica Leonards and
George DeLuca, said they were con-
sidering the idea of retaining lawyers
Paul Kietzman or Bartley Costello

suit

Tuition Assistance Puzzle Slowly Unravels

mittee is expected to have a report
ready for the legislature at the begin-
ning of its next session,

According to a memo issued Nov.
12 by Dickinson to college financial
aids offices, of the 305,000
applications received from all
colleges (excluding CUNY), only
136,000 awards have been sent to
students.

To date, HESC has processed
256,000 of he 314,90 apploationa,
Wing about 25 per cent pending.
“were processing about six toseven
thousand applications a day now,"
said HESC Data Processing Direc-
tor David Perry. “We now have no
substantial backlog.’

HESC Vice President Graeme
Baxter cites the addition of 48 new
employees during the last three
weeks as providing the extra man-
power needed to cut down on the
corporation's backlog. “We've been
able to award 44,000 certificates
since Nov. 20,” said Baxter.

Many students have been hit by
the TAP mix-up, but the institutions
themselves have also suffered.
Hardest hit are the private colleges
