Hoopsters Rout Aussies In Season Tune-up

by Micheal Smith

By the end it was a travesty. The
score had grown to a ridiculous 86-
‘53 and the only drama that remained
for the'near-empty University Gym
crowd was whether or not Frosh
Steve Macklin could score, The
Albany State Great Danesjust didn't
beat the Coburg, Australia basket-
ball team, they made the Aussies
look like your friendly
neighborhood St. Rose All-Stars.

The two teams exchanged gifts
( tationery; for them, boomerangs
for Albany), in ceremonies before
the game, As it turned out, the
Aussies didn't do much to merit a
letter back home on their new
stationary.

“They were pretty physical and
that's about all," Albany's guard
Gary Trevett said after the rout.

“It was a good tune up for Cor-

tland on Saturday,” said Albany var-

sity basketball coach “Doc” Sauers.
“They simply missed a tot of good
shots early while we were on. After

Frosh Barry Cavanaugh scored
first and from there the Danes were
on their way to prove international
diplomacy does not carry over tothe

gracious hosts as they blew the

advantage and stretching their lead
to 268 after only 8 minutes of play.
It was a case of Albany quickness
and. the Aussies lack of it which
proved the difference, Gary Trevett
repeatedly beat Coburg upcourt on
fast breaks.

Cavanaugh, the 67" Rensselaer
product who is the biggest pivot man
in Albany history, ended his first
night’s work with 16 points, That
figure tied him with veteran Mike
Supronowitz for game honors.
Super hit his first four shots to help
Albany break quickly. Captain Bob
Audi had an even dozen, as did
Trevett, All of Gary's 12 points came
in the first half.

Frosh Brian Barker,of whom the
coach says, “Is making freshman
mistakes, but will still be a- good
one," took over where Trevett left off
by scoring all of his 11 points in the
final 20 minutes,

Atrio of front line reserves, Dave
Lanahan, Simon Steckel and Eric
Walton, also played well. Waltones-
pecially came to life in the game's
final minutes.

Defensively, the Danes played a
patient man-to-man which bottled
up Coburg’s deliberate game and
forced the visitors to attempt many
long range, outside shots.

“After the half I wanted usto slow
down and take advantage of certain
situations out there," Sauers said
later. “I don't like the idea of every
man for himself out there."

by Craig Bell

“I's awfully hard to do an encore
after a 9-0 season, but I think alot of
coaches would be happy to finish
with a 7-2 record," said Albany
Great Danes football coach Bob

Ford,

“If you could take away the
pressure of winning and losing, and
just concentrate on each kid becom-
ing the football player he is capable
of becoming and the team becoming
all they are capable of becoming,
then I think we reached these goals in
the last game of the year against

Springfield College.”

The Danes rebounded by
defeating Brockport and RIT, but
did not play up to their potential.

In the Brockport encounter, half-
back Orin Griffin rushed for 235
yards in only one half of action and
‘was again voted the ECAC Player-
of-the- Week.

The Danes followed with a big,
come-from-behind win, defeating
Southern Connecticut, 19-17. The
game, played at New Haven, saw the
Danes fall behind 15-0 only to come
storming back in a torrential down-
pour to grab the lead and then hold
‘on as the Owls tried to pull it out at
the last second. Fullback Tom
DeBlois was the big gun in this one
for State as he ran for 95 yards.

Back home against Norwich Un-
iversity, again in the pouring rain,
the Danes again found themselves
on the short side of the score and had
to rally for a 19-12 victory.

‘Then came what Ford called “the
most frustrating game of the year, as
the Danes lost to the Albright Lions,
28-6,

Albany fumbled the ball deep in
their own territory the first twotimes
they had possession and Albright
went in for two early scores and
never looked back as the Danes real-

ly never got into the ball game.

“The Albright game was a classic
‘example of two evenly matched foot-
ball teams," Ford said. “Oue made a
lot of mistakes, the other didn't,"

‘The Danes had an easy time the
next week as they shot down the
Plattsburgh Cardinals, 66-12. Dave
Duprey got his first start of the year
and galloped 202 yards, good for
three touchdowns.

This set the stage for the season
finale against Coach Ford's alma

Professor Johnpoll Urges
Administrative Cost Cuts

by Doug Horwitz
Political Science Professor Ber-
Johnpoll has charged that
ative and non-teaching
operative costs for the SUNYA cam-
Pus are exceedingly high. Based
upona study which he beganin 1972,
Johnpoll concludes, in contrast with
the administration's figures, “Our
costs, in the system generally, are
way the hell too high—are the
highest in the United States for any
school.”

Johnpoll has determined that over
7.4 million dollars (approximately
1696) of SUNYA's operative budget
is spent on non-teaching salaries
alone with millions more being spent
for overhead costs. “We are in es-
sence spending” Johnpoll said,
“somewhere in the vicinity of
between 25-32% on administration
.»- and it raises a serious question of
what is the purpose of the school.”

In addition to these costs, John-
poll has figured that only one-third
of the budgetary money spent per
student is used for educational pur-
poses (teaching, library and
research). With regard to this finding
Johnpoll remarked, “Now I am will-
ingto concede that hereis a need for
expenditures on buildings and on
police and on administration which
can be very high, But I don't think it
‘makes sensethat the cost for all these

things together is almost double the
cost of education.”

Johnpoll is convinced that
“tremendous cuts can be made at the
higher administrative level” without
Joss to administrative efficiency.
Having done a comparative analysis
between the University of Wisconsin
and SUNYA Johnpoll has found
considerable differences. He said,
“They used the same people at a
much lower figure, their ad-
ministrative costs are very much

why they've had
as good a school as they've had.”

Johnpoll, who admits to being
violently anti-bureaticn
administration's chief critic, said, “I

think serious consider
be given to cutting back on the
number of deans we have and the
number of vice-presidents, 1 really

really don't need any mor
Speaking for the administration,
John Hartigan, Assistant Vice
President and Controller, has said

It is Hartigan’s belief that Johnpoll

not substantiated his findings
with any figures, “Other than saying
something, I haven't seen anything”
the Vice President said, asking,
“where are his figures?”

Jobnpoll claims to have all the
figures and appears anxious to
divulge them. “I'm not as un-
reasonable as people think I am on
this,” remarked Johnpoll, adding “I
use their own figures, I have never
devised my own, It wastheir Internal
Research Bureau that came up with
these figures... When Thavea chance
1 will appear before a committee of
the Senate and I will alktothem, I'd

It is Johnpoll’s hope that he: not

this ought to be a head-to-head con-
frontation, this ought to be a

him both time and money “I think

iversity. I know most administrators

ing for a confrontation, what he

then address those facts.”

Doubts Voiced Over Student-Controlled FSA

by Stephen Dzinanka

The future of the student-
controlled FSA is a bright one, ac-
cording to student leaders. However
both the corporation's general
manager and its former president
fear that a lack of continuity on the
FSA Board of Directors could create
problems.

The student-dominated Board of
Directors Wednesday elected SA
Controller Stu Klein FSA president,
completing SA's play for control of

change periodically as students
graduate and are replaced by new
students entering the university.
“That makesit hard for management
to plan ahead," said Zahm,

Zahm is worried about the
students’ ability to make long-term
decisions and those involving large
amounts of money.

Annual Problem

Vice President for Management
and Planning John Hartley, the
former FSA president, said there is a
problem in annually re-educating
the new student directors about the
budget and business operations.

FSA is a multimillion dollar
business. It operates a number of un-
iversity services such as check
cashing and cafeterias, “These are
complications which take a little

time to learn about,” said Hartley,

“I don't think it's a problem,” said
the newly elected Klein. He feels
there are cnough students who aren't
graduating and who could returnfor
another term on the Board.

Five of the eight undergraduates
on the Board are seniors, This in-
sures a turnover of more than half
the students on the Board.

Klein did, however, stress the im-
Portantce of holding Board meetings
early in the year to familiarize new-
comers with FSA.

Central Council Chairperson
David Coyne is more skeptical. “I's
a real problem that there will be
some lack of continuity,” said
Coyne, “We'll just have to do our
‘est to communicate things early in
the year.” Coyne cited extensive fil-

Alden-Waterbury dining hail, on Alumni Quac students on the F&A Boerd of Directors must

ing, making information available
from year to year, as important to
the success of the student-dominated
Board, Coyne said Zahm will hold
meetings with the directors to give
them some background on the
history of the corporation,

SA Vice President Rick Meckler
feels that some administrative
perspective is needed to provide the
Board with background on FSA.
Meckler hopes to sce a lot of discus-
sion between students, faculty
member, and administrators on the
Board, “It's not that we can pass
anything we want, although wecan,
don't get me wrong. Now they (ad-
ministrators and faculty members)
have to listen to our arguments and
convince us that we're wrong.”

There are presently three ad-
ministrators, two faculty members,
and nine students on the Board,

Klein is confident that students
will prove their competence in FSA,
“It will show the university, hopeful-
Jy, that students can act just as
responsibly as anybody else in run-
ning a corporation, Students can res-
pond better to student problems
than faculty or administrators .
They've been through it.”

Faculty Concern

Hartley feels the faculty will show
concern over the Board's Wednes-
day decision to remove the
barbershop from the Campus
Center, He stressed that it is the
Board's intention to relocate the
barbershop if possible, “Every effort
will be made to relocate the
barbershop,” said Hartley,

‘Student officials pointed out that
1 lack of available space on-campus
could thwart the revival of the
barbershop.

Both Hartigan and Johnpoll agree
that their budgetary figures don't
coincide because each is defining ad-
ministrative costs differently. Har-
tigan said, “There are two sides and
everyone has their own conception
of things.” Johnpoll defined the two
conceptions as such, “They're trying
to make a very narrow definition of
administration, I'm tryingto make a
very broad definition.”

Yet despite Johnpoll's broad
definition of administration, Har-
tigan maintains that non-teaching
costs at SUNYA aren't excessive, He
said, “This campus has not beefed up
administration to the extent that
other centers have ... The conscious
effort as I see it, is to put as much aa
possible into the facult
number of instructional positions in
terms of faculty support.” To sup-
port his statement Hartigan alluded
to the recent audit in which thestate
controller determined SUNYA was
undermanaged. “We could identify,
asily,” he noted, “at least thirty
more aministrative positions ... we
need thirty more people to do what
they're telling us to do,”

Hartigan also doesn't see a need
for cutting back on the number of
deans as Johnpolt advocates, “Each
‘one of these schools is very very
specialized,” Hartigan noted. “Per-
sonally, I don't see how you could
have one of these schools without
having a dean... At what point in
time can you effectively manage an
operation without a leader?”

“I think it's an insult to faculty,”
Johnpoll said, “to say that they need
somebody to watch over what they
do educationally, Either were big
enought to be educators or we're not
.» 1 see outrageous decisions of a
high level educational nature made
by administrators against the better
judgement of teachers .. I's a very
serious problem.”

With regard to budget cuts, John-
poll said, “You know, whenever a
cout is made here, it's made at the ex-
pense of the faculty, at the expense of
the teaching, it'seven made at the ex-
pense of advisement. It's never made
at the expense of administratior
However, in agreement with
SUNYA administrators, Johnpoll

TV Oldies Hold French Viewers

PARIS (AP) Every Wednesday

Gay Exposure Ruins Govt Defense

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) When
Eisha Marsh stepped before televi-
sion news cameras to publicly
‘acknowledge his homosexuality,
lawyer James Stauffer began to
redraw his game plan.

‘Stauffer, counsel for the Depart-
ment of Defense, watched quietly as
Marsh, 36, shot down a time-tested
argument used by the government in
denying requests by gays for security
clearances. A homosexual with
access to national security
documents, the Pentagon has con-
tended is a prime target for
blackmail and coercion.

But Marsh, an electronics techni-
cian who says he needs a clearanceto
do his job, was following # recent
trend by gays to freely admit their
sexuality and eliminate blackmail as
‘a possibility, He told his supervisors
at work, his father, his ex-wife and,
now, he was telling everybody else at
& news conference,

“1 guess this makes me the bogey
man here,” said Stauffer as he smiled
and puffed on a cigarette,

Stauffer ia used to his job. Only
three days earlier, he had argued at
another Defense Department hear-
ing that another civilian homosexual
‘engineer, Allan L, Rock, should be
stripped of his top-secret clearance,

‘Stauffer says the government does
not automatically refuse security
clearances to homosexuals but says
they come underfar greater scrutiny,
“We are concerned with anything
unusual,” he said. “Homosexuality
is unusual. We are not out tocrucify
anyone.”

Rock and Marsh are civilians,
Each man works at an electronic
firm that has government contracts,

and each called a news conference to
argue that his sexual orientation has
nothing to do with his job,

Rock, 46, had held a security
clearence for 17 years when he ad~
mitted to government investigators
in 1972 that he was gay. The Defense
Department revoked his clearance,
saying it was no longer “clearly con-
aistent with national interest.” Rock
told the news media he was gay and
argued before a federal examiner
that his news conference eliminated
any potential for blackmail. The ex-
aminer agreed but upheld the
revocation on the ground that, by
admitting he had engaged in
homosexual acts, he thereby com
fessed to breaking state laws
prohibiting such acts, Rock won a
federal court order restoring his
clearance. Supreme Court Justice
William J. Brennan then granted a
y protecting his job and his
clearance pending the results of
another hearing held late last month.

Not Laws

Richard S, Farr, who served as
examiner in both cases, says he ex-
pects to reach decisions bythe first of
the year. Marsh contended at his
hearing that laws against private
homosexual acts “in reality are not
laws because they are not enforced
by district attorneys or police.”

California has repealed such laws

public restroon in San Jose, The ex-
Marine was charged with lewd con-
duct, fined $40 and placed on two
years probation,

‘The Defense Department said in

November 1974 the arrest “reflects
criminal conduct" and declined to
issue a clearance, Marsh appealed,
contending the arrest was “an
isolated incident that occurred dur-
ingthe difficult and traumatic transi-
tion from a heterosexual marriageto
the homosexual world.”

He said he has had a stable gay
relationship with another man for
the past year and that his employ-
ment and financial records indicated
longtime stability and reliability
Hic ex-wife testified at the hearing
on his behalf.

Rock, on the other hand, has no
arrest record but freely concedes he
has broken state sex laws in private
for the past 10 years. He contended
the laws were unconstitutional
because they violated his right to
privacy.

“1 do not feel any duty to obey an
‘unconsitutional statute,” he said.

Rock, Marsh and others contend
that as long as the homosexualtiy is
openly acknowledged, the issue of
blackmail is moot, Both mentold the

coerce them would be reportedtothe

Schizophrenia Traced to Blochemistry

SANTA MONICA, Calif. (AP) Researchers say they have amassed
conclusive evidence that most schizophrenia is caused by chemical
imbalances in the brain and tends to be hereditary. “We now have a steady
stream of new data and information instead of just a simplistic theory,” said
Dr. William E. Bunney of the National Institute of Mental Health during a
conference here. Dr. Seymour Kety, a Harvard University
psychopharmacologist in whose honor the gathering was held, said there are
three mai of research contributing to the belief that mental disorders
are biochemical in origin. Kety said there is now “conclusive evidence” of

Village Gate Challenges New Nudity Law

NEW YORK (AP) The Village Gate, a theater cabaret in Greenwich Village,
says it will challenge the State Liquor Authority's ruling banning total nudity
in places that sell alcoholic beverages. Art D'Lugoff, the owner, said he will
seek @ federal court injunction this week to block the SLA's Dec. 12
cancellation order. The nightspot has been staging the sexually explicit
musical, “Let My People Come” which the SLA said last week was lewd and
indecent and in violation of its regulation. D’Lugoff said the SLA ruling

The cancellation of this semester's
Assessment of Courses and Teachers
(ACT) due to lack of student
volunteers has raised important
questions about whether or not stu-
dent evaluations —or evaluations of
any sort —are a requirement hereat
SUNYA.

‘According to Robert Frey, Assis-
tant Dean of Undergraduate
Studies, “There is no university re-
quirement that every teacher be
evaluated, But itis strongly implied
since evaluations are required for
promotions and tenure.”

In fact, although evaluations of in-
structors are highly encouraged by
the administration the only written
provisions for such evaluations are
found in the guidelines for the
Council on Promotion and Con-
tinuing Appointments, From this
council's guidelines on Admistrative
Procedures and Responsibilties it
states that “All students must be
given an opportunity to make
evaluations in every class each
term." This however is applicable
only for those faculty members who
are up for promotion or tenure.

Guidelines are not law in this un-

iversity. They are very strong

‘ACT’s Demise Raises Questions

{recommendations which cannot so
‘tually be enforced. Henry Mau, of
the Personnel Department feels that
this guideline, “implies a recommen-
dation for everybody because it is s0
broadly worded.”

Vice President of Academic Af-
fairs Phillip Sirotkin and Assistant
Dean Frey concur that evaluation of
the courses is the primary respor-
sibility of academic divisions. There
is no administrative body that
“checks up” to see if evaluations are
used only by the department
chairmen and the reviewers of anin-
structor's qualifications for promo-
tion or tenure,

Regardless of the lack of an ab-
solute rule on evaluations, most
students do find themselves filling
out different evaluation forms for
each department. The philosophy,
nursing, comparative world
literature, biology and computer
science departments are all using the
ACT evaluation as their departmen-
tal evaluation.

Marcia Cockrell of the biology
department says that ACT is used
because it is the easiest evaluation
for the department to run, The
biology department is satisfied with
the ACT questionnaire,

Dianne Piché, elected to the SASU Executive Committee during a
recent Student Assembly Conference at SUNY Buffalo.

they do use their own evaluation
form for their laboratory classes.

Cockrell was surprised to learn
that ACT was all prepared to run
jthis semester and that ACT IV was
jeancelled because of a lack of stu
‘dent volunteers to administer the
Questionnaires, “I feel thai if
departments had realized that
everything was ready to gothey may
have done the evaluations
departmentally,” she said,

Cockrell was disappointed that
ACT was unable to publish this
semester. “The administration asked
us to include student evaluations in
files for promotion," shesaid, “that's
one of the vital bits of information.
Cockrell suggested that since the ad-
mistration wanted student
evaluations for their promotion and
tenure files that perhaps they should
help with the distribution of the
ACT questionairres.

Vice President Sirotkin felt that
the ACT survey was more objective
if it was run entirely by the students,
However, he liked the idea of such a
proposal possibly being presented to
the University Senate rather than i
being strictly an administrative deci-
sion. “I would like to see a body of
the Senate propose it,” he said. “I
think it is useful for everybody.”

Professor Rotundo of the English
department was not personally in
favor of the Senate requiring suchan
evaluation because she felt it was an

Enrollment Declines as Budget Tightens

by Mare Leve

According to SUNYA Ad-
missions Director Rodney Hart,
there will be 165 new students enroll-
ing next semester. This figure shows
a cut from the original projected
figure of 250.

Hart attributed this decrease to
reevalvation of such needs as the
budget, student services, housing
demands, and financial aid. The
effects are evident throughout the
entire SUNY system. Binghamton
responded by cutting its spring
enrollment figure. Buffalo froze
theirs. However, Stony Brook open-
ed its enrollment to 1,400 for new
students

“We haven't established firm
enrollment goals for the fall term,”
said Hart, but he projected 1,900
new freshmen and 900 transfers; the
same figure as last fall.

‘Suggestion Offered

Director of Residences John Wel-
ty recently suggested emphasizing
upper division and graduate enroll-
ment as a method of softening the
housing demand, Hart said that
Welty's suggestion “is not so

different from the trendin which we
are moving.” That trend is toward
60% enrollment upper division and
40% lower ‘division on ‘the un-
dergraduate level.

Hart pointed out that while the
undergraduate level is esse
static, growth is pres
graduate level, where there is no
housing problem, However, he said
that student demand is much
stronger at the freshman level where
there are 15-16,000 applicants as op-
posed to 8,500-9,000 transfer
applicants. Lowering freshman
enroliment would serve to increase
the already stiff competition.

The number of students admitted
is dependent upon continuing stu-
dent needs, departmental needs, rate
of graduation, attrition, cohort sur-
vival, and ‘rate of return of the
applicants. For example, it has been
found that 12% of all “A” students
admitted decide to matriculate. The
data is collected by Institutional
Pesearch and the Admissions
Department itself. Because of chang-
ing factors, this research is an ongo-
ing process. “You can pump in the

same number of students two years,
and get different results,” said Hart

According to Hart, students are
admitted on the basis of their high
school average, rank in class, SAT
scores, RSE scores, and the Regents
exams. Hart said that the average
SUNYA student is a high quality
student. The average high school
composite is 919; and class rank is
generally within the top 10%,

Lower Scores

According to Hart, mean RSE
and SAT scores are lower this year
reflecting lower scores throughout
the state and the nation, Regents ex-
ams used to be averaged in with the
composite high school average. But
he said, presently there is much less
emphasis on them for a number of
reasons: the theft of the Regents ex-
ams in 1974; difficulty to staff the
work required to calculate the
averages, and the increasing number
of students who do not take them,

“We've stopped using Regents as a
final screening device. We eyeball
them and put most of the emphasis
on SAT and RSE scores, and the
high school average," said Hart,

to the internal power plays
attempted over the weeketid.”

Kirkpatrick called the charges
against him politically motivated
and said they would be proved false.
His accusers say he spent money
frivolously and implied that he or his
friends pocketed some of it

The charges against Kirkpatrick
will be investigated by a special com-
mittee voted subpoena powers bythe
membership. In a thirty-cight page
packet circulated privately at the
meeting Friday night, he was ac-
cused of misusing Student Assembly
funds, Kirkpatrick did not see the
written accusation until Saturday
morning.

“Peter Comeau dumped it on my

lap at breakfast,” said Kirkpatrick.
“He said "You had better read this’
and then walked away.”
Ten seats reserved for Third World
delegates went unfilled as student
leaders worried about the legality of
{he resolutions that enfranchised the
Caucus last June.

‘Acompromisesolution was reach-
ed Sunday inthe Student Assembly,
an official agency spawned by
SUNY Central. The compromise
will determine whether caucus
members get votes in SASU, whichis
anindependently-formed coalitionof
student governments. If the SUNY
Board of Trustees approves the
resolution passed by the Assembly,
SASU will also seat the ten minority
representatives. The compromise
was reached in an attempt to keep
the membership of both
organizations whose memberships
virtually overlap parallel,

Much of the other business before
the student groups was passed fairly
quickly.

ecutive Committee were filled, one

SASU's legislative platform for

hotly-debated issues at winter
meeting was passed last Sunday.
However, according to SASU Vice
President Stuart Haimowitz, none
of the delegates found time over the
weekend to cometo briefings held by
SASU's legislative directors,

‘The platform, as approved by the
SASU membership, calls for. the
organization's lobbyists to oppose

the school’s proximity to state
government and supported by
potential strength in those areas,

As Executive Vice President
Phillip Sirotkin told the Senate,
these are the areas that have received
the 28 additional lines for next year
(nine of these at the expense of the
Humanities)

The Division of Social and
Behavioral Sciences (7 additional
faculty lines), the School of Criminal

Justice (1), Education (2), Public Af-
fairs (2), Social Welfare (2), Business
(2), and the Division of Science and
Mathematics (1).

This direction appears to be set,
though there are still those with
questions. Josiah Gould
(Philosophy) suggested at the Senate
meeting that there was no
demonstrable correlation between
public affiliation and a university's
greatness. In Fields’ response he
reiterated the three classical pur-
poses of the university: teaching,
scholarship, and“ public programs.”

But thereis noserious worr
university that

in the Humanities appears to be
honestly related to the lower
workload (faculty/student ratio)
factors and possibly to Fields’ image.

“think he wants to be perceived
as hard-nosed,” said Bruce Marsh,
president of United University
Professions (UUP), Albany's
chapter of the faculty union.

The union’s major concern lies
with one of their primary purposes:
job security. Marsh wrote an
editorial in the Albany chapter's
newsletter in September that
suggested that the Select Committee
‘on Academic Priorities’ report was
misused as a basis for retrenchment.
This issue was brought up at the
Senate meeting when Stephan
Temesvary (Astronomy) asked
Sirotkin about the implications of
firing tenured professors. Sirotki
answer was somewhat vague,
possibly because of grievances filed

by the retrenched Astronomy
department, but it appeared that
‘Sirotkin said that finances alone did
not determine Astronomy's demise.

must make the line cuts necessary in
her division. The decisions to cut
there, like the decisions to add
elsewhere, are complicated by the
unknown status of appointments
coming up for renewal this January
and February. Also, Sirotkin
emphasizes that the state budget
crisis could wipe out those
reallocations and present the Presi-
dent with the need for further cuts.

Schmidt will eliminate most of the
nine lines by letting positions that
are becoming unfilled stay that way.
But uptothree may be actual firings.

in his academic critique entitled
“The Closed Corporation.”

nia physicist Charles Schwartz,
“raises. some most provocative
questions about the ways in which
the academic worldis integrated into
the dominant structure of corporate
America”

Schwartz, a well-known Berkeley
professor, is currently the country’s
leading (and one of the only) oppo-
nent of outside consulting by college
professors. Although he admits do-
ing some consulting himself in the
past, Schwartz is so convinced of its
perils that he recently wrote a report
which called for each US university
to require all its employees to make
annua! public disclosures of all con-
sulting activities.

“Thorough disclosure,” he
emphasizes, “so that people can
move to some sort of evaluation to
see who is being served—taxpayers,
students or private industry and
professors.”

Outside Income

In his report, Schwartz foundthat

68 faculty members and ad-
ministrators from 44 universities
hold 85 directorships on 66 top US
corporations. Schwartz also dis-
covered large numbers of faculty
members serving on many of the
‘more than 1400 committees that ad-
vise state and federal agercies. A
1973 survey showed that 374 persons
from the University of California
belong tosuch committees with Har-
vard holding 130 memberships and
Columbia, 108.

tion faculties admitted that con-
sulting was a significant source of
their outside income, According to
Dugger, professor Hackerman told
him that about one-third of the en-
tire Texas faculty got outside money
for services including lecturefees. At
Harvard, nearly half of the senior
faculty members consult, Dugger
says; an MIT official calls his school
ground for en-
ind a professor friend
of Duggers agreed that consulting is
“academic racketeering.”
Real World

Critics of Schwartz’s proposal say
that professors receive their biases
from many sources other than their
consulting contacts and that such
outside work “enriches” the
professor and aids himin understan-
ding how the real world works.

Berkeley business professor
Richard Holton, who serves on the
boards of three corporations, told
“The Chronicle of Higher Educa-
tion” that his experience “in the
board room made a better teacher
out of me.”

Schwartz, who says consulting
fees may reach $500 per day, con-
tends that investigating professors’
consulting relationships is “looking
into the basic nature of colleges and

Universities.” He says several student
‘groups are looking into the situation
at Berkeley and hopes that student,
taxpayer and legislative pressure wil
soon force some action

A REPLY TO PRESIDENT FIELDS

After reviewing President Fields’ speech before the Senate, as well as considering all available data that we could obtain:

1. Wesupport he concept of shifting resources
where necessary. However, we question the
wisdom of any precipitous cutsinthe Humanities
division. It is important to realize that drastic
cuts might hinder the work of upper division
undergraduates within departments as well as
destroy the morale of the faculty and students
who remain within the di in.

2. We support the concept of “centrality”. We
share Dr. Fields concern for our History and
English departments in particular with the caveat
that these concerns will not be expressed by the
categorical release of junior faculty members.

3. We support the strong leadership Presi
Fields has displayed. However, we feel oe ta
governance structure which the President has
available tohim must be used for consultation
before any further decision are reached.

4. We recommend that in filling faculty lines that
superior teaching skills be an important weight.
This will serve our undergraduates in givingthem
strong skills when they most need it.

5. In conclusion, as students, we are facing
various pressures to place relevance and
practicality in our degree choices. At atime when
education cuts are being made, over and above
Our protests, we must maximize and strengthen
the resources we have available. We appreciate
the efforts being made towards that end.

AN AFTERLIFE
PEOPLE SHORTAGE A leading medical researcher says

‘A Chicago organization is war- that “beyond a shadow of a doubt”

beating temporarily, and who have
been clinically dead for up to two
hour.

Doctor Kubler-Ross says that the
amazing thing is that virtually all of
the people who “die” for a short
while and then come back to life
report virtually the same beautiful
experience.

What is death like? According to
Doctor Kubler-Ross, most people
first report having a light, pleasant
sensation and then leaving their
bodies; next they are rushed through
a dark tunnel where they hear a buz~
zing sound and then the voices of
people they knew who are now dead.

Finally, there is an eerie, powerful
vision of an exhilarating light that
seems to encompass the entire un-
iverse. Doctor Kubler-Ross states
that she was at first quite reluctant to
report about the pleasantness of
death fearing that its beauty might
stimulate suicides

Science magazine reports that an
experiment at the Massachusetts In-

‘The experimental program had in-

However, Reed says that the
Program was discomtunued shortly
after Exxon contributed its half-a-
million dollar donation to the
department conducting the
methanol studies.

University officials acknowledge
that Exxon was opposed to the ex-
periments, andthat they had discuss-
ed the experiment with Exxon. But
they deny that the Exxon donation
influenced their decision to halt the
‘methanol studies.

Kwanza Miasma

‘To the Ealtor:

Friday night EOPSA ran a talent show in
the ballroom as part of Kwanza weekend.
Having been through the traditional
ceremonies of Kwanza before, I was surprised
‘to find that they had scheduled a concert and
tome talent shows to celebrate Kwanza. EOP-
SAis now run by people not interested inreal-
ly expanding black culture at SUNYA to
blacks and whites. Anyway, the talent show
had some of the worst behavior from EOPSA
that I have ever seen.

1 was supposed to play in the show, so I
drank some winetorelieve my tensions caused
by a nervous condition I have, which has been
documented medically. Waiting for the show
to start, (it was poorly organized and behind
schedule), 1 developed an attack of my
asthmaticcondition. It got worse and the com-
bination of the wine and illness made me black
out backstage while the show was on. Many
people from EOPSA knew of my asthmatic
condition, but none of them came over to help
me out, They said I was drunk, which I might
have been, and they said 1 was inthe way. Act
cording to witnesses they tried to move me
with their feet, until friends rescued me,

EOPSA had many football players and
assorted athletes in the ballroom for security.
If | was in the way they could have moved me
‘easily, since I weigh all of 140 tbs, The action
they took only worsened my condition. From
their point of view of my being drunk, | was
helpless on the floor and not hurtinganyone. 1
have seen many people on the floors of
different dorms and they received help. I'm
not looking for sympathy, but 1 can't help
‘wonder what would have happened to me, if |
hhad been a white student.

‘When I finally could leave the ballroom, 1
took some medicine and went to sleep in the
Fireside lounge. Certain people from EOPSA
objected to that, but were stopped by my
friends from movingme. They also objected to
‘my friends trying to get my personal property
out of the ballroom. After feeling better, |
altempted to go backstage to get my property,
and 1 was forcibly thrown out and reverted to
my condition of iliness. After everything was
over, I was shocked to discover my almost-
new expensive conga had been badly scratch-

telligent individuals to a mob. They now are
hurting the blacks up bere, who get along with
whites and wish to establish a black cultural
‘experience at SUNYA. I had been suspect of
EOPSA's actions before all this, but this has
convinced me. We all should get together and
‘oust these people from EOPSA: I feel that
EOPSA’s present budget can be used by in-
telligent minority students to benefit all
students at SUNYA. If we don't act now,
potentially valuable group to the campus will
go down the drain.

Critical of Council

To the Editor:

‘At Inst week's Central Council meeting,
several Council representatives were brought
up for impeachment by the Chairman.
However the reasons given for thenecessity of
this extreme action were not impeachable
offenses. . . and were, actually, facts which
the Chairman drew from his own biased con-
clusions,

‘The Student Association Constitution
specifies one, and only one, cause for impeach-
ment... having “3 of more unexcused
absences” (Central Council Rules, Part 2, Sec-
tion 4), None of the accused Reps were even
charged with breaking this attendance rule,
Instead, the Chairman fabricated his own

forimpeachment, utilizinga bunch of

tistics which purported to show

the “effectiveness” of individual members.

Everyone agreed, andthe Chairman admitted,

that this meaningless batch of numbers, which

attempted to show (and rather poorly at that)

only one small aspect of a Council member's
job, was irrelevant.

‘A second reason the Chairman brought up
for the impeachment of one Council Rep was
his not being on a Council Committee. The
fact that the Chairman himself neglected to
appoint this person to a committer—which is
the Chairman's responsibility—was ignored.
‘Therefore, this Council member wasn't on a
committee because the Chairman hadn't ap-
pointed him to one. . , and because he wasn't
‘on a committee, the Chairman moved
peachment, One need not be a Logic major to
see the fallacy of this reasoning.

‘As one of the Council members who was at-
tacked by the Chairman, I feel impelled to br-

creasing

matters, and a! failure to confront the really
important iseues which concern the students,
‘Rather than spend the major amount of a 7
hour meeting (which dragged on until 2 0.1m.)
on garbage, perhaps Council would beserving
its constituents better by examining such
things as the deteriorating bus service (discuss-
edfor about 3 minutes last week), thefailureto
save the ACT (never discussed), the safety and
heating inadequacies at the Wellington, and
the suspiciously recurrent “viruses” plaguing
Colonial Quad meal-plan contractors.

Unfortunately, last weeks’ disorderly
meeting, which saw Council members yelling,
‘accusing, and personally attacking one
‘another, was not atypical. In fact, each week,
constructive work and legislation is made
almost impossible by the amount of friction
evidenced. One may not wish to believe that -
‘our highest decision-making branch of st
dent government carries on like this, but it
does (ask your Reps, if they weren't impeach-
‘ed and have not resigned yet).

In fact, another disgusted Rep made a mo-
tion to dissolve Council, and various options
(restructuring Council, replacing the
leadership) were discussed. . . but no action
‘was taken (of course). Isincerely hopethatthe
‘Council can get itself together, and that wecan
rationally figure out a proper course of action
(be it new Council elections, structural
changes, or new officers)sothat some measure
of credibility and efficacy can be restored.

With a concerted and determined effort,
concentrating on the issues mentioned, 1
believe we can do what Council has failed to
do since September—improve, and contribute
to the university community in a positive, con-
structive manner.

A Righteous Lawman

To the Editor:

‘At the risk of breaking with tradition, this
letter to the editor” is one of praise rather
than another in the series of complaints, It is
written to acknowledge the outstanding job of
Mr. Robert Gibson of University College.

During the three and a half years I have
spent at this institution, | have never met anin-
dividual more dedicated to the welfare of
others, I know Mr. Gibson best in his role as

Pre-Law Advisor. it- should. be “soted,
however, that Mr. Gibson serves also.ns Ausis-
tant Dean of University College, as a member

a versity committees, and asan

Society meeting than all other meetings of the
Pre-Law Society combined! From September
until December, Mr. Gibson hosts every
hopeful senior law school applicant and writes
‘almost every applicant's Dean's Form (a re-
quirement for law school consideration). At
the interview, the potential law student is
‘overwhelmed with information necessary for
applying to law schools, statistics showing
which law schools an applicant from SUNYA
with a particular GPA/LSAT combination
has the best chance of acceptance, and helpful
advice on writing law school applications.

In addition to advising seniors on law
school matters, Mr. Gibson is the first person
every freshman interested in law school meets
at this university, The second day of every
Summer Orientation Session includes a
seminar on the legal field. It is at this meeting
that students interested at such an early date in
1 legal career are given guidance influential in
the courses that they will select duringthe next
four years. No particular major is
recommended, however the skills necessary
for a solid foundation are discussed and the
young pre-law student is directed to those
courses that will develop those skills in
him /her individually.

Visiting students from other colleges and
universities have expressed their amazement
tome at the scope of the Pre-Law Advisement
Program here. No other university or college
in the area has such a program. However, no
other university has such a force behind their
programs.

Don't worry juniors, sophomores and
freshmen, Mr. Gibsonis not leaving next year;

1 am—just taking this opportunity to inform
you about our program and to give credit
where itis tong overdue.

A Change at the High Court

With the nomination to the Supreme Court
of Justice John Paul Stevens of the Seventh
Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago, Presi-
dent Ford has taken the meritorious road of
avoiding presidential politics in naming a
Successor to resigning Associate Justice
William O, Douglas. In 1969 Richard Nixon
nominated, without success, two
Southerners—Clement Haynesworth and G.
Harold Carswell—in a rather obvious
political attempt to improve his image in the
South. By nominating a man of Mr. Stevens’
recognized stature, however, President Ford
hhas put this type of controversy aside and has
placed legal and judicial eminence first. As At-
torney General Edward Levi said, the
President's choice “was a commitment to ex-
cellence.” An important gesture from a man
‘who so upset the legal order in 1974 by par-
doning Richard Nixon,

i was only reluctantly, though, that Mr
Justice Douglas finally left, creating this
vacancy which Mr. Stevens will now un-
doubtedly fill. Mr, Douglas continually
reasserted that, in spite of a stroke experienced
last December 31, he would not resign from
the Court. The thing which finally distracted
him from his work, ultimately causing him to
quit, was the great pain and physical anguish
he was experiencing from his stroke: “During
the hours of oral argument last week
(November 3) pain madeit necessary for meto
leave the bench several times. | have had to
leave several times this week (November 10)
also. I shall continue to seek relief from this
unabated pain but there is no bright prospect,
in view.”

‘As opposed to those who have continually
lamented about the Court's mounting work
load, such as Justice Burger, Justice Douglas,
in spite of his illness, never found any
problems with the Court's responsibilities.
While the caseload piled up, he said that he
could easily do the job in four days a week. As
Tecently as last June 23, after he had been ab-
sent from the Court because of his illness, he

sg by David Troeger x wt

reiterated his view that the existing load could

easily be carried,

At that time Justice Douglas gave a
profound analysis of the dilemma the Court
now finds itself in regarding its duties: “with
all respect, the state court judges and lower

J court judges are quite conservative.
letting their decision stand is to keep
alive a conservative ruling supportive of the
status quo.”

“That means that mounting pleas of in-
dividuals are not heard, and that the Court
will no longer take on highly controversial
issues, The establishment and its coterie of
news commentators will applaud as the law
will have been shaped by the philosophy of
judges who share their view.” He sees the
Court in the necessary position of beingabove
politics and governmental influence, givingin-
dividual rights as equal a hearing as that
allowed for the rights of authority

Perhaps just as important as his judicial
stands on individual rights over the years are
what Douglas stands for as an individual. He
is living proof that ageis just a number, merely
astate of mind, A man of 77, though experien-
cing physical limitations, can be as young as
the 17 year old as long as he is willing to re~
main open to new experiences, never shutting
his mind. Asan ardent outdoorsman who has
been married four times (his present, whom he
married in 1966, is now 32), heshould be anin-

spiration to all for continuing enthusiasm for
living, Until his stroke, hiking and climbing
remained his pride and pleasure,

Justice Stevens too, in his own way,
transmits a certain boyish exuberance. That
persistent flop of hair which continually falls
on his forehead seems to sit on the head of a
man who has never lost his youthfulness. His
judicial stands will be different from those of
Justice Douglas, undoubtedly a strong con-
trast (o Douglas’ fervent liberalism. The
Supreme Court will be getting a well respected
man, a moderate who is recognized by all for
his intelligence and scholarly insight.

editorial / comment

SUNYA's School of Business has decided that all potential business majors must
apply separately for admission to their school, and will insist on a minimum grade
point average for the applicants.

‘The change from virtual open enrollment, according to Dean William Holstein, isin

response to an enormous increase in’enrollment over the past few years.
__ The schoo! investigated other alternatives to the admission action, and presumably
increasing the size of the school itself was considered. They received two additional
lines for next year in the reallocations decisions recently made by President Fields and
Vice, President Sirotkin, but two lines doesn't even bring the faculty up to a level
commensurate with student growth. The school will remain hard-pressed.

Clearly there is great student interest in business, and it is doubtful that it is simply a
temporary trend. The ecgnomystarves: for good managers, accountants and economic
advisers, With that in mind, it seems strange that the response is to cut enrollment
rather than enlarge the schoo! to fulfill the need. But with the budget crisis facing the
state and thus the university, limiting enrollment is a logical though unfortunate wayto
ease the school’s present burden.

The Business school is certainly not wringing itshandkerchief about the situation.
The admissions requirements will add prestige, something this university needs.
President Fields told the University Senate last week that SUNYA is not yet known “ip
the hinterlands,” as if there was something inherantly wrong in it. Ironically, that’
prestige is derived from the students who will be refused entrance because they failed to
meet the standards the school will set.

Assuming that limiting enrollment is the only answer tothe workload problems, it is
important that the Business school not penalize SUNYA's current freshman and

sophomores who expected that there would be no restrictions on business enrollment.
These students must be granted open admission, even if it means delaying the
implementation of the requirements or not accepting transfers.

Getting In Deeply

‘As the pressures and anxieties of this time in the semester begin to interfere with
every part of student life, it is especially important to be aware of the perspective in
which exams and final papers have a place.

The healthiest attitude will make grades important only if they have a part in a
highly-valued future. Even this is no hard and fast rule, since what a student wants as
her/her future may not be what is best. The key life goals of sucess, happiness or
comfort are not attained just because one is in a particular profession.

Grades that are important because of needs one his for self-esteem or parental
approval should not be pursued. Self-esteem come from havinglearned something and
good grades then come naturally. Still, if the grades are mediocre itis still quite possible
that valuable learning has gone on, learning that might end up more useful than that
which would have resulted in higher grades,

There is no reason for panic these two weeks, and anxiety will only make things more
difficult. Studying hard can be beneficial, but don't let it warp your brain,

Buses: A Reminder

It's all well and good that the university has found funds through the elimination of
Astronomy and the Allen Center and reallocations to add new faculty lines. But one
question arises as the result of all this new found wealth:

What good are the teachers if the students can't get uptown to class?

State Henry Kissinger's covertly schemed to
help King Hassan of Morocco grab Spanish
‘Sahara—at the very time our government was
tryingto renew our vital air and sea base lease
in Spain.

Here's another facet of the story you won't
learn from the mass media. Oil has been found
under the ocean floor off Spanish Sahara,
‘magnifying the stakes involved and providing
8 clue to Dr, Kissinger’s peculiar tactics,

There is-some mystery about this oil dis-
covery. The news leaked out last January that
4 platform rig drilling a wildcat well 80 mites
off the coast of Morocco had hit oil. The com-
panies which made the find are Shell, the
Rockefeller-controlled Exxon and the Moroc-
can state company, BRMP.

‘What is peculiar, however, is that, while the
successful wildcat was in Spanish waters, it
had been drilled without permission from
Spain, but with a permit issued by King
Hassan of Morocco .... who recently march
d his men upasand dune, then marched them
down again, as he tried to grab Spanish
Sahara by default,

The kind of permit Hassan issued is what
professionals call claim jumping; thesite of the
discovery is on the Spanish side of the median
line between Spanish and Moroccan territory
and in clearly Spanish property under the

‘Where the plot thickess, however, is that
Henry Kissinger, whoesjobit would betocon-
‘vey such assurances to the top management of
the claimjumping concerns, is a former
employee of the Rockefellers, Aad be gots
$50,000 “golden handshake” upon leaving the
employ of Nelson Rockefeier, thea New York
governor, to take a top job in the Nixon Ad-
ministration,

Is it possible Dr. Kisinger feels the oil
deposits off Spanish Sahara are more impor-
tant that the U.S. air and sea bases in Spain?
Nobody except Shell and the Rockefeller’
Exxon really knows for sure,

Exxon and Shell have kept a hermetic
silence about the size of their discovery olf
Sahara, so it’s still largely a mystery. But
there's no mystery at all about Kissinger’s
diligence, energy and perseverancein pursuing
his grand designto oust Spain andthe Spanish
interests from Spanish Sahara and transfer
that desert territory to King Hassan of Moroc-
co, The massive deliveries of tanks and aircraft
to Morocco, arranged by Kissinger earlier this

Geneva Convention of 1959 that limits. the
zones of uovercignty over sea and seabed
fevources. So it's very peculiar that such
sedate, prestigious outfits as Shell and Exxon

year, were part of that scheme.

‘What we do not know is the fate of the
‘American air and sea bases in Spain when
Kissinger’s game of knifing that country

med to be a time whea an old white redneck honkie nigger would call an of’ black rusty nigger
‘a nigger and the nigger would want to kill him! nowadays the nigger might smile, but still want to
Lil him. ‘or maybe the nigger would. . .but i sure can’t figure out why. to me being a nigger is
coal, real cool. besides, everybody's doing it!

nigger can be an endearing word, a word of love and affection. like, that's my nigger, spoke by
a nigger person about his/her nigger friend, love. even whifolks be called nigger in this respect.
‘why i beard a nigger call his whilady friend the other day. said, come here pretty nigger, and she
came. nigger, dig that!

So what's in a name, a word? nigger just ain't the same no more.

‘every true nigger can sense discrimination. so, i guess many different kinds of folks qualifies to
be niggers. one dude wrote a book about the student as nigger’. women to be treated like niggers
(guees that makes black women double niggers!) hitler killed jews the way the kkk killed niggers
(they both would have killed more if they could). (its rumored that the russians treat their own
people like niggers in many respects.) guess a ot of folks been treated like niggers to one degree
(or another, so what's in a name if so many qualifies?

this sunya nigger writes about how black niggers can play basketball better than white niggers
(they can leap higher, run faster, and leap short honkies with a single bound!) and how white
niggers got all the power and won't share it with the black and hispanic niggers. and it can go,
does go, on an on, a whole lot of niggerly (niggerish? niggardly?) games.

militantblackniggers call whiliberalniggers nigger pretenders, and whiniggers call them nigger
lovers. conservative niggers are cold and callous reactionary niggers. blackniggers have
poorniggers and bourgeoisniggers. and if you happen to be a
blackcommunistmarxistleninistmaotsetungthoughtnigger, then you'll even sec
petitbourgeoisniggers, pseudobourgeoisniggers, opportunistniggers, and even
reactionaryrevisionistcapitalisticopportunisticrenegadedogcounterrevolutionaryniggers. and
what the heil does all the niggermantics mean except who can string the most niggerwords
together before having to take another breath.

nigger means so many different things to so many different people that, perhaps, maybe the
word ought best be banned from the human language. then maybe the people we characterize
and catalogue without knowing, maybe we can begin to know and appreciate thema little more.

simplistic you say? truc enough. but as a nigger, i've seen most of them kinds of niggers, and
then some, and everyone of them niggers, or whatever terminology you use, everyone of them
‘was a real person underneath the label or veneer. i've just found that its better to deal with people
1s individuals, as people, and not as an entity to stack in a pigeon hole and to be forgotten into
eternity. and if and when you come across the inevitable, someone youcan't deal with, then move
along.

however, my diatribe on nouveauniggerisms will probably not improve society one iota. but
my point ia clear and should be heeded by all various and multifarious niggers: get beneath the
surface 10 the extence of people; otherwise you'll stay on the surface of yourself.

‘welll! always be a nigger, cuz being a nigger is cool for me. bye now. i'm gonna go dig on
some stanley clarke. you know, that sure is some bass playing nigger! goddamn! even jerry ford

would engage in a claim-jumping operation— develops further.

THE SECOND BEST SOLUTION FOR GETTING
MORE NOURISHMENT IN YOUR RELATIONSHIPS
AND A CAREER

The best solution is to be born again. Then you'd be free of the old
teaching and programming that keeps you from being in harmony
with your environment.

The second best solution is the Self-Management System, a
creative integration of Gestalt, Psychosynthesis and other personal
growth sciences. It’s particularly relevant today, because no single
discipline holds the key to a wide spectrum of personal dilemmas:
“How can I get a competitive edge in the job market?” “How can |
shrink the negativity in my personal relationships to a manageable
size?” “How do I become my own person, not the person others
want me to be?” “How can I feel at home with the Human
community?”

These concerns are explored in the “Journal of Self
Management.” Yet this monthly is more than new communication,

oblem-solving and life-planning insights. It can be a letting-go

A People’s Dancer

by Bob Wong

Daniel Nagrin appeared in a dance
retrospective called Jazz Changes last Friday
night, December 5. It was not your usual
dance preformance. It was one man; a dancer
speaking to and dancing for an audience, He
explained to the audience his philosophy: “I
don't do dancer’s dancing, I do people's dan-
cing”

‘The program was divided into iwo narts. In
the first section he performed three selections:
the Cakewalk, the Charleston andthe Lindy.

None of these dances were original in their
own right. It was the frame of mind that
Nagrin provided that sparkled and enter-
tained, The first dance, the Cakewalk,

predates the Civil War. Its name is derived
{rom its main action, that of a man carrying a
cake, Nagrin said, in an attempt to parody the
white slave owner's style of dance, the black
slaves invented the Cakewalk.

Next Nagrin performed the Charleston. It
was a fine example of precise execution that
stemmed from three decades of dancing. After
this dance Nagrin called for the house lights.
He then asked the audience to help him. He
explained that he usually feels uncomfortable
dancing this picee. Yet of all the dances he
‘nds himself practicing this one the most. He
felt that the reason for this dissonance and the
subsequent amount of practice was due to his
quest for “the point of innocence,” the

The Classical Forums:

smotivatng force behind tha andthe fappers

‘The third dance ofthis set was a Lindy-Bop .

Piece. Again Nagrin provided us witha mental
framework.

‘The Lindy wes most popular dur’

ing the Depremion. A dance meant for
‘couples, the Lindy -was male centered: heled,
the followed. He contrasted this with the
freewheeling female movements in the
Charleston.

The second part of the show consisted of
Nagrin’s own choreography. He opened this
past by remarking that jazz music and so jazz
dance is a black art. It was the black man who
inventedit. It was the white man who copiedi
and made it popular. In the process of making
jazz popular and himself rich, the white man
made it palatable,

The first dance of this section was entitled
“Strange Hero.” The white background
changed to a bright scarlet. Hagrin entered,
his silovette movin
strides. As the cross lighting comes up we see
hhimin a gray business suit, smoking cigarettes,
acting cool. He performs all the functions that
a hero might on TV. He encounters an adver-

and then, saluting his victor, falls, the music

fading as he does.

Next was “Man of Action,” music by J, Me~
Coy as interpreted by Count Basic, This time
wearing a hat and raincoat, Nagrin pokes fun
at modern man. Nagrin says it symbolizes the
plight of the “urban man having to be in more
than one place at one time.”

“Bop Man,” the next dance work,
characterized Jazz Changes. All of Nagrin’s
selections were based on jazz music. In this
work it seemed as if the music was being
produced with every move that Nagrin
cuted. This point was evident at the end when
Nagrin placed his finger on an imaginary
keyboard to sound the last note.

‘The last dance of the evening was atribute |

to composer Cecil Taylor. Having admired
Taylor's music, Nagrin had him as both com-
poser and subject for this work. Taylor's music
was dissonant in nature as was the dance.
Wearing a mask portraying Cecil Taylor that
hid all facial expression, the dance seemed to
fesemblea Greek Tragedy. The culmination of
this point was apparent inthe final series of ac-
tions as Nagrin removed the mask to confront
it and perhaps himself,

‘This one man dance retrospective was as un-
ique as any one man can be. Consider this: this
dancer is both performer and interpreter of
dance. He is in a sense much like our Urbanite

“Man of Action.” He must be two people at

mask and himeelf,

Perhaps knowing thé “point of innocence,”
(or the motivational factors involved, aeorrect
choice can be thought out. ~

weno

‘The answer would seem to be in the nature
of jazz itself, Jazz is largely improvisational,
hard work und sweat creates the art that
appears to flow effortlessly out at just theright
moment in both music and dance,

There would seem to be a moral in this
philosophy of versatility, Nagrinsaidthis after
the performance, “There existed the possibili-
ty for me to change the show at any time, ifthe
opportunity presented itself, But it didn’t, sol
didn't?

‘

The most
Wonderland
is a new interpretation of 1

laces of Bronze Age Crete
and especially of the reputed p
of King Minos himself at Knosos,
which was excavated by Sir Arthur
Evans at the beginning of this cen-
tury. Hans Georg Wunderlich, a
professor of geology at Stuttgard
University, has written a book, The
Secret of Crete (Macmillan, 1974).
He argues that all these “palaces,
well as the lesser villas that have been
found scattered about the Cretan
countryside, were actually mortuary
buildings, in which the dead were
embalmed and buried above ground.
Among the many defects of
Wunderlich's thesis are his
numerous errors of simple fact, in
direct contradiction (and
presumably ignorance) of
archaeological evidence. More
serious are the inconsistencies and
logical fallacies of his arguments and
his inability or unwillingness to con-
sider the further consequences of his
conclusions.

Knossos is famous in Greek
legend as the site of the labyrinth
built by Daidalos for King Minos as
a corral for the monstrous
Minotaur. It was designed as a
bewildering maze, in order 10 keep
the Minotaur—and his victims—

\_ from escaping; hence the use of the

Cretan Fantasies

word by the classical Greeks (and by
us) to deseribe any maze-ike struc
ture. Sir Arthurargued convincingly
that the labyrinth was based on
vague folk-memories of the vast and
rather complicated layout of the
Bronze Age palace itself

Wunderlich believes that the dark
and gloomy aspect of the legend
derives from the function of the
building as a burial place. He argues
that virtually all of Minoan material
culture as presently knownis simply
the paraphernalia of an elaborate
cult of thedead. The “palaces,”
notwithstanding their multiple
stories, are too flimsy and ephemeral
in their construction to have served
as real residences for the living. Mi-
oan pottery and other artifacts also
belong to a “sham” world in which
objects of everday use were
represented by beautiful but un-
substantial imitations that were ade-
quate for use only by the dead. The
originals, for use by the living, have
yet to be found after 75 years of ex-
ploration in Crete.

Although the Egyptians are
famous as antiquity's master em-
balmers of the dead it was really the
Minoans who did most of it for
them. On the other hand, the
Minoans borrowed from Egypt the
idea of above-ground “labyrinths” as
burial places.

Here Wunderlich commits one

‘The ruins of the palace of Minos, located at Knossos.

ofhis worst fallacies. The Minoans,
in borrowing from the Egyptians,
evidently misunderstood the whole
idea: the Egyptians lavished much of
their wealth and effort on providing
their dead with homes for eternity,
building their tombs of massive,
stone construction and filing them
with real, substantial objects that
had actually been used in life—all of

which is entirely consistent with the
permanence of embalming.

The Minoans, on the other hand,
who supposedly developed the
technique of embalming in the first
place, provided flimsy grave goods
for the dead and housed them in
toothpick pataces that were doomed
to collapse in a hundred years onthe
well-preserved heads of their oc-

cupants, We might also note here
that in any event a house forthedead
must be as solid and “real” a struc
ture as a house for the livng.

Our purpose here has becn to il-
lustrate some of the flaws in
Wunderlich's arguments to
warn the reader against taking his
fantasties seriously (does he himself
really mean them seriously2),

SUNYA Sports Information

The 1975-76 State University of
New. York Athletic Conference
(SUNYAC) basketball race has
already started with several teams set
to give defending champion
Brockport a run at the title, The
eventual champion will earn a berth
in the NCAA Division III East
Regional Tournament in March.
Brockport won the regional in 1975
and went on to finish fourth
nationally in Division III,

Gone from coach Mauro Pan-
aggio’s 23-5 squad that was 10-1 in
conference play are All-Conference
forward Pops McTaw and center
Kevin Williams, lost for personal
reasons. Key returnees are Pan-
aggio's brother Dan, also an All-
SUNYAC choice a year ago, 6-4
forward-center Dale O'Dell, and 6-5
center Steve Simmons, Although
Mauro Panaggio terms 1975-76 a
rebuilding year, he retains enough
talent, plus the addition of several
newcomers, to rate a contender's
role in the pennant race,

the game is real. In only its second

Of the twenty players on the
squad, “more than half are
students,” says the team's coach,
Donald Nemcik, who is also a stu-
dent here. And the rest? “They're

Pretty Good Players

According to Nemcik, he coaches
“some pretty good players,” but they
had “no way to express their talent”
before the team was organized. This
club he feels, gives them an excellent
opportunity to do just that.

“They started Just year,” he con-
tinued, “and played a few games at
Frear Park (in Troy), but they didn't
have a coach. “I'm an avid hockey
fan, 1 came to the games,t liked it,
and 1 got involved.” Involved

The ASLH.C, is self-funded
which means the players pay their
own way—for everything From
their own hockey sticks and helmets
to the renting of a hockey rink for
their games,

There are no coaching assistants,
so Nemcik relies on team captain
Tom Burns and assistant captains
Jeff Perlowitz and Bill Stech for ad-
vice, All are students and played last
year. (Burns and Perlowitz are
centers, Stech is a right wing, and
Nemcik doesn't play—he has trouble
skating)

Last year, with the club playingin-
formally, it was difficult to obtain
rinks before midnight for many of
the games. “But this year, we have
some decent times," says Nemcik. Of
the 21 games on the schedule, nine
begin at 7 p.m. and six begin at 5:50
pam, None start after nine o'clock

Since the league is amateur, there
is no age limit for the players. “Most
[of the players] have jobs, families,”
the coach, “and they've been
playing since they were young—but
they just don't want to give it up,"

Playing Disadvantage

Soif you're a student, you're play-
ing ata disadvantage. According to
mcik, there are plenty of
“established” veterans in the league.
And “the schedule is tough. The
‘Troy Belters, Louies and Rensselaer

Flyers, for example are all rough,”
he said.
A Heartbreaker

But the Albany Staters may fare
better than most would care to guess
In their very first amateur match,
they lost a heartbreaker to the Troy
Reunion Club, 4-3. Trailing +0
midway through the third and final
period, Albany tallied three times in
a row in the space of three minutes.
Nat Heintz scored first at 11:59 on a
fine pass from Perlowitz,
defenseman Billy Davenport tallied
an unassisted goal a little over a
minute later, and Perlowitz himself
scored at 15:02 assisted by Jim
Miller.

Nemecik yanked goalie Jim John-
son in the waning moments and
mixed-up the lines considerably in
the hopes of getting the equalizer,
but all to no avail, Albany actually
outshot Troy by a 42-39 margin
which seemed to give the coach
reason to be excited over his squad's
chances. “The team played like a
unit, too,” he exclaimed.

Nemeik is still “trying to drum up
fansupport” among the students and
invites anyone to come either to the
practice sessions, held at the Union
College Field House, or the regularly
scheduled games, played at Frear
Park. Yes, there is a hockey team on

never looked back.

“Obviously we were pressing ear-
ly,"the coach said. “But we hadthem
‘scouted very well and our defense
kept us out of a possible big hole by
shutting them down while we wereso

in the game with our offense playing

Bob Audi was onthe receivingend

“Bobby always knows wherethose
points are,” Sauers said, “And Gary
(who had 8 assists in the ballgame),

Cortland managed only 2 field

“Our scouting report told us they
(Cortland) had trouble with Oneon-
ta's zone,” Sauers explained. “So we
took advantage of their weakness. I
still believe Cortland is a better team
than they showed tonight.”

‘Sauers cleared his bench with
more than 6 minutes to play, and
subs Lanahan, Steve Macklin and
Eric Walton responded by hitting
their first four shots to give the
Danes a 30-point advantage, the
game's largest, at the final buzzer.

“I'm glad this one is over,” Vic
Caesar said afterwards. “The
Coburg game was just like a scrim-

mage. Tonight was nervous night.”
