SUNY may cut budget by $28M

By T.E. Kane
CONTRIBUTING EDITOR

Governor Mario Cuomo’s budget officials
directed the State University of New York to
absorb further cuts of 28 million dollars for the
current fiscal year to ease the state’s growing
deficit crisis Thursday.

For the third time in two years, the Governor’s
Division of Budget has told SUNY administrators
to take management actions that would save money
and lower the amount the state would have to spend
on the SUNY system, because the state’s expected
revenues fell short of projections.

This move comes at a time when the state’s
budget officials are grappling with a deficit that has
increased from initial projections of 100 million
dollars to more than 1 billion dollars, officials said.

Unlike last year, in which revenues were down
because of a massive shortfall in income tax
receipts resulting from the Federal tax reform, this
year’s deficit is caused primarily by the fall in
business-related taxes due to a sluggish economy,
budget officials said.

SUNY officials said the Governor’s budget
office had told them to cut an additional 2 percent
or 10 million dollars from their existing budget,
that is already 16 million dollars less than the
University system had requested last year for the
current fiscal year. This was in addition to previous
years’ reductions of 10 million dollars that budget
officials mandated to the University system.

But the reductions for the University actually
represents a 4.8 percent decrease in expenditures
for the remainder of this fiscal year which ends in
March, according to Herbert Gordon, vice

“Because we've already spent a considerable
amount of the budget for this year, the 2 percent
figure is much greater in real terms,” Gordon said.

SUNY officials said that they expect 6 million
dollars in additional revenue from the Universities
participation in the New York Network, and the
anticipated rise of parking fees at University
campuses, Gordon said.

University officials have not developed a plan to
implement the proposed rise in parking fees, nor
are sure that the revenues from the New York
Network will be received by the end of the fiscal
year, Gordon said.

“We might have to absorb the total amount of
the cuts if the revenue plan doesn’t materialize,”
Gordon said.

If the 6 million dollars in increased revenues
comes into place, the remaining dollars in cuts is
expected to be absorbed from University accounts
and will not be from the individual campus
budget, Gordon said.

“We expect to take from these accounts and not
have to cut major programs at the campus level,”
Gordon said. He would not specify which
University wide accounts that officials are looking
to. cut.

Gordon would not rule out the need for the
University system to reduce campus based budgets
at the state operated campuses in the event there is
not enough that can be trimmed from the central
administration.

State budget officials had originally wanted
notification of SUNY’s reductions within a week
or so, but under “flexibility” legislation, the
University system to act within 30 days, Gordon

WCDB sportscaster suspended

By Patti Martino
STAFF WRITER

A sportscaster was suspended
from SUNYA’s radio station for
one month following a
controversial sports editorial
addressing racism in sports and
in society.

On Oct. 23, sports reporter
Andrew Shanock said he used
his editorial spot on WCDB to
discuss his feelings regarding
racial epithets he had heard
while refereeing an ACIA flag
football game.

Shanock said the racial
comments were made by a black
player to a white player on Oct.
22.

According to Shanock, in his
editorial in last Friday’s ASP, the
reason for prejudicial ideas is
that “people follow such leaders

as the KKK, the Order, Louis
Farrakhan and the skinheads. I
also went on to say they also
believe in the lyrics of such
groups as Public Enemy.”

Shanock said he also called
prejudice a disease that occurs in
all cultures and asked his
listeners to stop the hate.

Jim Caringi, WCDB general
manager said Shanock was
suspended from the station for
using WCDB airwaves to
express his personal views
without going through the proper
channels. “He was wrong to take
it upon himself to use WCDB
airwaves for his own personal
views. There was no disclaimer,
no notice” that the views
expressed were not WCDB’s.

Caringi said if the members of
the campus community felt an
issue needed to be addressed,
WCDB would “do it in the form
of an editorial board and not as
an individual expressing his
views over the air.”

Alex Vojvodich, WCDB sports
director agreed and said “Our
sports editorials are not meant
for political purposes. They’re
just to entertain and provide
insight to sports events.”

Shanock said although he
understood Caringi’s and
Vojvodich’s viewpoint he
thought he had stayed within the
proper limits of a sports editorial.

According to Shanock, sports
editorials are for “your opinion

chancellor for University Relations.

and views on sports and issues
that go on in sports. One issue in
sports to me is racism, bigotry
and prejudice. The line I crossed
was taking it out of sports and
relating it to society. But I
related it to both sports and
society. It’s a borderline thing.”

Shanock said the station was
not at fault for what he said:
“Unfortunately, I assumed that
people would just take (the
editorial) 4s my personal
opinion, because mainly I was
saying throughout the whole
thing ‘I think, I think, I think.”
Most of the sentences started
with ‘I’ and not (with) ‘the
station’. I didn’t want the station
to get in trouble.”

Myron M. Smith, community
service director of contemporary
soul was at the station during the
broadcast and brought the
controversial nature of the
editorial to the attention of the
station manager the next day.

“That editorial was not the
proper place to air his feelings. I
had something to do with sports,
but he went off the topic,” Smith
said.

Smith said he thought
Shanock’s intentions were good
“but he should have channeled it
in a different way. More people
could have learned from a
different situation.”

Smith said he received a lot of
feedback from black listeners

Students claim dorm room

Said.

damage cost is excessive

By Hope Morrow
STAFF WRITER

Billed for room damages in excess of $1000, four SUNYA
students claim the charges are unjustified.

Last year, seniors Maria Hyman, Lisa Konlian, Tammy Wu and
Maryann Darcy lived in a four person suite on the second floor of
Delancey Hall on Colonial Quad.

When they moved in, Hyman said, “The room was so dirty I
couldn’t put anything on the floor. I had to call maintenance on
the first day and have someone come up and mop the floor. It was
disgusting.”

The students said they left the room in the same or even better
condition than it was when they arrived.

The students also said the damage costs are excessive. “I pay
for school myself,” said Hyman,”and so do the other girls. We
don’t have $296.48 to pay for painting a room we didn’t damage.”

In response to the bills the students received over the summer,
they wrote an appeal to Residential Life. However, the appeal was
denied. The letter informing the students of the denial itemized the
charges the students owed.

The students were charged for leaving a couch, having lounge
furniture, sticky and gummy floors, smashed food on the walls,
and a pink discoloration of the blue paint in the suiteroom. They
were also billed for having nail holes and “blue marks” on their
bedroom walls.

Of all the charges, Hyman said the only thing they should have
been charged for was the couch. She said when she filled out her
Room Condition Report (RCR) she accounted for the 100 tack
marks already in the walls, The students also said they never got
food on the walls and they have no idea what the discoloration of
the walls and the “blue marks” were, let alone what caused them.

Hyman said the floors must have been sticky as a result of the
glue traps placed there by Pest Control. The students had a
problem with mice, were told by Resident Director Zafar Malik
that they would have to contact Pest Control themselves, and they
did so. Since the entire suite was carpeted, according to Hyman,
the only possible cause of the sticky and gummy floors was the

Rally fails purpose

Tehran, Iran
(AP) Iran marked the 10th anniversary of
the seizure of the U.S. Embassy on
Saturday by opening the compound to the
public and displaying seven alleged CIA
spies. Most Iranians ignored the event.

The apparent disinterest was a blow to
radicals who hoped to use the occasion to
stir up anti-American passion. It was a
victory for President Hashemi Rafsanjani,
who wants to improve Iran’s relations
with the West and end his country’s
isolation.

About 10,000 to 15,000 people
gathered outside the one-time U.S.
Embassy in Tehran, which was stormed
by militant “students” Nov. 4, 1979. For
444 days, 52 American diplomats and
embassy personnel were held hostage
there.

Even routine Friday prayer gatherings
attract more people than the rally. Crowds
at previous anti-U.S. rallies have been
estimated at more than | million.

Exodus continues

Berlin
(AP) As many as 1 million East Germans
chanting “Freedom! Freedom!” filled the
Streets of the capital Saturday for an
emotional pro-democracy rally that was
the largest in the Communist nation’s 40-
year history.

The crowd jeered Communist Party
leaders and cheered opposition speakers.
Scores of people draped pro-democracy
banners from their apartment balconies
and several elderly East Berliners wept
with emotion as demonstrators marched
past.

The three-hour rally, sanctioned by
authorities, came a day after Communist
leader Egon Krenz announced the
dismissal of five Politburo members,
promised broad political and economic
reforms and urged East Germans to be
patient and stay in their homeland.

Defense budget cut

Washington
(AP) Lawmakers are optomistic President
Bush will accept a $305 billion defense
bill that cuts $1.1 billion from the
Strategic Defense Initiative and provides
one less B-2 stealth bomber in fiscal
1990.
“Apart from SDI, on the whole it’s (the
bill) one which we find acceptable,” Sen.

-~PREVIEW OF EVENTS

John Warner of Virginia, ranking
Republican on the Senate Armed Services
Committee, said shortly after
congressional negotiators adopted the
legislation Thursday.

The bill still must be approved by the
full House and Senate, and critics were
outspoken about a defense blueprint that
provides all but $150 million Bush sought
for land-based nuclear missiles and
restores some funds for conventional
weapons the president sought to kill.

“Where a weapon is built and by whom
has become more important than how
much it costs, is it needed and whether it
contributes to our national security,” said
Rep. Larry J. Hopkins, R-Ky., a member
of the House Armed Services Committee.

Pay raise in works

Washington
(AP) President Bush will support “any
reasonable proposal” by lawmakers to win
a pay raise for themselves and other top
federal officials and judges, his
spokesman said Friday.

Bush’s support on the politically touchy
issue could encourage a new effort to
push a pay raise through Congress before
adjournment. But there was skepticism on
Capitol Hill that such a move could
succeed this year.

“We're just waiting for them to give us
a package,” presidential press secretary
Marlin Fitzwater said. “We'll be

supportive if the Congress produces any
reasonable proposal.”

House Speaker Thomas S. Foley, D-
Wash., has said repeatedly that
congressional leaders consider the
president’s endorsement critical to the
success of any effort to raise the
congressional salary above its current
$89,500.

The State

Plan falls short

Albany, NY
(AP) New York’s proposed goal of
reducing the amount of hazardous waste
generated in the state by one quarter over
the next five years isn’t ambitious
enough, an environmental group said
Friday.

The Environmental Institute instead
called on the State Department of
Environmental Conservation to double its
waste reduction goals for the next five
years to 50 percent.

In testimony prepared for a DEC
hearing on its proposed Hazardous Waste
Facility Siting Plan, the environmental
group said the state should aim for
reducing hazardous waste reduction by 90
percent over a 10-year period.

The group said the state plan for
dealing with toxic waste doesn’t comply
with a state law requiring that waste
reduction and recycling be given priority
over incineration and burial.

Prisoner drops suit

Albany, NY
(AP) A lawsuit against the state alleging
rape by a prison guard has been dismissed
by a state judge, who harshly criticized
the state prison system for not better
preventing sexual contact between guards
andinmates.

Court of Claims Judge Henry W.
Lengyel found that Mabel “Penny”
Whitney had willingly had sex with a
guard in 1982 at the Bedford Hills
Correctional Facility, a maximum-security
women’s prison in Westchester County.
Whitney was at the time serving a 5-to-
15-year sentence for manslaughter in the
killing of her ex-boyfriend.

But Lengyel said prison condition at the
time were “sewer-like” and that the prison
had “become a sexual preserve for amoral
corrections officers.”

Whitney brought sexual assualt charges
against two guards while she was in

prison.

El Salvadoran talks on country's internal conflict

By Tim Devane
STAFF WRITER

On Thursday, November 2, SUNYA
was presented a first-hand account at the
conflict currently being waged in El
Salvador.

Alejandro Salazar, a worker in the
Farabundo Marti, (Front for National
Liberation of FMLN), gave a lecture on
the problems and hopes of the El
Salvadoran people.

The FMLN is in conflict with the
government of El Salvador, named the
Nationalist Republican Alliance, or
ARENA. The FMLN is also in conflict
with the government of the United States,
which supports the ARENA government,
according to Salazar.

In the question and answer segment of
the program, a student raised the
question, “Are you a communist?”
Salazar initially said no, and then later
said, “If fighting for our rights is being a
communist, then we are all communists.”

Salazar’s role in the FMLN was mainly
as a leader in establishing an underground
radio station in 1981, towards the
beginning of the ten-year conflict. All
radio stations in El Salvador are
controlled by ARENA, so_ this
underground station had to be constantly
mobile, moving from village to village.

The FMLN has been known in the past
as strictly a military operation, but

Abortion is topic of new student talk show

By Wayne Stock
EDITORIAL ASSISTANT

Opinions were loudly voiced during an
open forum on abortion Thursday in the
Performing Arts Center Recital Hall.

Straight Talk, sponsored by the Student
Association, was the first in. what is hoped
to be a monthly series of talk shows.

“Straight Talk is designed to be student-
run talk show,” said Shawn Thompson,
who co-hosted the event with Kelly
Bates.”

The panel included Shannon Sullivan,
co-chair of Students for Choice, Lesley
Massiah, a graduate student and pro-
choice representative, Bernadette
Benedict, a R.PJ. undergraduate
representing the pro-life movement and
Dennis Wolterding, a representative of
Citizens Concemed for Human Life.

The main thrust of many of the pro-life
advocates seemed to be that aborting a
fetus is equivalent to killing a human
being.

Pro-choice supporters hold downtown rally

By TE. Kane
CONTRIBUTING EDITOR

Pro-choice advocates staged seven
mock deaths to symbolize the deaths of
seven women every twenty minutes who
die due to an illegal and unsafe abortion.

More than 70 abortion rights activists
gathered outside an anti-abortion clinic
Saturday afternoon to stage a “die-in” to
illustrate the fact that making abortion
unlawful does not save lives, but ends
them.
According to pro-choice activists,
nearly 75 percent of these women who use
hangers, Lysol, knitting needles or knives
to kill unborn fetuses are either African-
American, Latino, or Asian women. A
majority of these women are poor and
cannot afford to pay for an illegal abortion
that is done safely, Gwyne Jenkins said, a
member of Students For Choice, which
organized the demonstration.

“The issue of abortion is very much an

Salazar said that this perception of the
FMLN is changing.

“We learned how to talk to the people
and translate their need into political life,”
Salazar said.

The FMLN now includes intellectuals,
students, professionals, and “the people”
in general, according to Salazar. However,
Salazar stressed that it is the military
strength of the FMLM resistance force
that has created the new situation in El
Salvador.

The new situation is one that could
mean the end of a ten-year civil war in El
Salvador. The ARENA government has
invited the FMLN to the bargaining table,
in hopes of achieving peace, Salazar said.

is a devastating event for the woman,”
Benedict said.

“The answer is not killing our children.
We need to help these women, to help one
another, that’s the answer,” Benedict said.

“Full protection of law has to be
provided to the unborn child,” Wolterding
said,

“Pick up an embryology text and find
out what they say about life...we must
legally protect the unzorn child if we
believe that the unborn child has rights,”
Wolterding said.

The pro-choice side said they tried to
emphasize the point that a minority
should not have the right to legislate their
opinions on the majority.

It’s not pro-life, it’s anti- pro-choice,
let’s call it what it is,” said Massiah,
“What it comes down to is a matter of
choice. They are trying to legislate your
choice on others who don’t agree with it.”

issue of race,” Jenkins said.

Jenkins said that when the U.S. Supreme
Court made the monumental decision to
limit abortion, the women most affected
were the women of color and the women in
_most of the world outside the U.S.

“Essentially, the people that the decision
affects the most are being forgotten,”
Jenkins said.

In August, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled
that the public funding of abortion was
illegal and that the legality of abortion
should be left to the individual states.

The decision by the court to make public
spending of abortions illegal increased the
chances for women to die by unsafe
abortion procedures than when it was legal.
Most of the women who are of color
depended on public monies to have a safe
abortion performed, Jenkins said.

Before abortion was made legal by the
U.S. Supreme court in the Roe vs. Wade

FMLN in relation to Communist powers
such as Cuba and the Soviet Union and
their effort to change.

“We don’t need advice from Cuba,”
Salazar said.

Addressing the notion of FMLN as a
terrorist group, Salazar cited 931 human
tights violations the ARENA government
has committed since June 1, 1989, and
the fact that in morning, a bomb had
exploded in the office of the National
Federation of Salvadorian Workers,
killing eight people and wounding 36.

“We are called terrorists, but it is the
government who is terrorizing their own
people,” Salazar said.

Salazar said the FMLN has tried to
stay on good terms with the US, but it is

also said the US believed that the FMLN
was just a small operation in foothills and
no staying power.

Today however, the FMLN is

cities and the countryside villages,
according to Salazar. He said the US has
failed in their efforts to stifle resistance to
the Salvadorian government, despite the
fact that $1.5 million is sent to the
government from the US every day.

Responding to the question of the
Catholic Church’s role in the conflict,
Salazar said there is division. Some
church leaders support the FMLN, and
some don’t want change.

Party is challenged in Board of Ed elections

By Patti Martino
STAFF WRITER

In a race to secure three
vacancies on the Albany Board
of Education, Democratic
candidates, endorsed by a grass
roots organization, are
challenging candidates backed
by Mayor Thomas Whalen III
and the traditional county
Democratic party machine.

The seven member school
board develops the Albany
Public School District Policy. the
non-salaried board is also
responsible for developing a
budget to support its operations
and has the ability to tax Albany
homeowners.

‘The three candidates endorsed
by the Citizens of Albany for
Responsible Education (CARE),
a community based teacher-
parent organization, are Barbara
Allen, a personnel administrator
at the state office of General
Services; Paul Murray, an
associate professor of sociology
at Siena College; and Theresa
Swidorski, a former teacher, past
president of Albany citizens for
Education and owner of Rare
Earth Potters.

The three candidates endorsed
by the county Democratic
Organization are Pamela
Primomo alley, an Albany city
clerk; Ward DeWitt, deputy

commissioner of the State
Department of Correctional
Services; and Edwin Tobin, an
attorney and former city court
judge.

Leon Van Dyke, consultant
and substitute teacher in
Schenectady and former
employee of the State Education
Department is running as an
independent, and not part of a
slate.

"Democratic candidates
selected by the Democratic party
have a certain interest. They’re
going to be influenced by Mayor
Whalen,” Jan Dyke said.

“The CARE candidates who
have been endorsed by the
Teachers Union are influenced
by CARE, and I think that’s a
conflict of interest,” he said.

According to the CARE
candidates, one of the problems
with the Albany School district is
it has been historically controlled
by the Albany Democratic party.

Murray said, “We think that
the proper role of the school
board is to be independent of any
political party. The needs of the
school children should be the
highest concern of the school
board members and not loyalty
to a political machine.”

Murray said his opponents
“didn’t volunteer to run for the
school board but were drafted by

the mayor. The chief criteria (for
selection) was name recognition
and political loyalty.”

Tobin dismissed CARE’s
objections to his affiliation with
the Democratic party as “a nice
campaign slogan.” He said as a
Democratic judge for eight years
“I exercised independent
judgement in every decision I
rendered.”

Alley said she had no problem
with her endorsement by the
Democratic party. “That should
not be interpreted that I will be a
rubber stamp. The city and
school district are two different
entities,” she said. In a reference
to the Albany Public school
Teacher’s endorsement of
CARE, DeWitt said, “I’m not
coming in with a particular
interest group such that our
opponents represent.”

Two of the Democratic
backed candidates said there is a
need to focus on accentuating
the positive that already exists in
the school district as a way to
improve teacher satisfaction and
community perception. “We
don’t tell our story as well as we
should.” DeWitt said.

“A positive image has a lot to
do with how the school district
is perceived in terms of
recruitment and _ enticing
families to move into the Albany

net area, as well as the morale of
the teachers you are working
with and the morale of the
parents you have already,”
DeWitt said.

Tobin criticized the CARE
candidates for taking a negative
view of the Albany School
District. “They’re focusing on all
the warts. They don’t see any
good in the system,” Tobin said.
He emphasized the need for
cooperation and compromise
instead of confrontation.

Murray said the CARE
candidates “have been backers of
the system working for
improvement on the inside and
we're not just on the outside
being critical. I don’t think
anyone who has ever attended a
meeting of the Albany School
board has walked away with a
positive image of the Albany
School District. The way Albany
School Board runs its meetings is
a disgrace.”

All the candidates agree on the
need to improve the Albany
school district through increased
input by teachers, parents and the
community. Both slates have
mentioned the need for shared
decision making which means
greater involvement of parents,
teachers, and community
members in making decisions
that affect children in the Albany
school district.

Murray said the CARE
candidates would like to see
shared decision-making at the
local school level through school
based management. A committee
of teachers would make
decisions on how their particular
school is run,

He said school based
management would “give
teachers a voice in choosing
material they work with and in
helping them develop a
curriculum appropriate to
problems the children bring with
them to the schools.”

While Alley supports the idea
of local school based
management teams, she said the
CARE candidates “don’t say
anything about shared
responsibility. Someone has to
take the responsibility. You
always have to be accountable to
the public.”

She said, “Shared decision-
making works in schools with a
strong PTA. How does shared
decision-making work in schools
that don’t have a strong parent
involvement?”

Tobin said he would propose
scheduling conferences with
parents in the evenings and on
weekends to reach parents who
find it difficult to get involved.
“Getting their involvement is

crucial,” he said.

Disabilities are not necessarily a handicap

By Cassaundra Worrell
MINORITY AFFAIRS EDITOR

Most of us take advantage of
the things we were born with
like sight, hearing, and the
ability to use our arms and legs.
How would we adjust if we
didn’t have these things?

Well, Kevin Robert Barry, a
second semester sophomore,
(only because of A.P. credits) is

one of SUNYA’s handicapped
students. Kevin is partially
sighted and has found adjusting
to life at this university fairly
easy. He was born with this
handicap and he sees the world
in light and dark contrasts
without the color we with
“normal” eyesight take for
granted.

talked to Kevin about his life
here at SUNYA as a
handicapped student.

“I get up too early...I have
classes at 8:00 am because I had
pot luck at registration in July. I
tape the lectures and I listen to
make mental notes of what’s
important. The worst thing that
could happen to you as a student
is to listen to the same boring
lecture twice!”, Kevin laughs.

Smiling with a blue and white
checkered shirt and tattered
jeans, Kevin lead me through
one of the most difficult
interviews I had ever conducted.
Not knowing what to say, or
worse yet what what not to say, I
was definitely walking on
eggshells.

One of the advantages to his
loss of sight is his ability to
memorize a large number of
things. “Things stick in my head
and never go. I remember what
interests me and the rest I just

don’t.”

Kevin found it easy to adjust
to things here but has had some
pretty weird experiences.

“T have had people talk down
to me, but nobody has actually
yelled at me. That only happens
in stores when I ask questions. I
don’t even bother getting angry
because what am I going to do?”

“I feel more

comfortable Beyond
with peopletha

who are not

handicapped \Qiori

.” As part of ajo ty
the program to

make things easier for

handicapped students there are
meetings held where they discuss
issues that affect them and how
to cope with them.” I feel kind of
funny at these meetings because
the whole idea of being
handicapped is being like
everyone else and that doesn’t
mean saying, ‘I’m handicapped -
treat me special.’ “

He tells me the only difference
he sees between himself and
other students is the way they
take tests. “Otherwise, we’re all
the same. We’re exactly the
same; there’s no difference
unless you want it to be a
difference. You just have to be
like everyone else because that’s
what you are really,” Kevin says
sighing as he leans back into his
rug on the wall.

His hobbies include reading

has a sister at home in Long

Jail-n-Bail participants raise money for cancer

By Emily Elstrom

Jail-n-Bail, a charity event conducted
by the American Marketing Association
Nov. 1 and 2, to benefit the “American
Cancer Society was a success, according
to the organizers.

“One guy really thought that he was
being arrested,” said Susan Gabrielsen,
the special events coordinator for the
ACS.

“The AMA did an incredible job at
setting up and taking apart the event ... it
was much more organized than last year,”

Gabrielsen said.

In Jail-n-Bail, you sign a person up to
be jailed without the person’s knowledge
of it. That person is then arrested and
sentenced before a panel of celebrity
judges who determine bail for the
“criminals.”

According to Jeff Luks, AMA treasurer,
who worked on the event last year, “This
year was much more organized than
last...It was a rough two days but it was
well worth it.”

Luks said the AMA raised $30,000 last
year, “but only received about $18,000,”

because they were a lot slower sending
out the pledge billings.

According to Susan Gabrielsen, “Jail-n-
Bail is dependent on getting billing out.
Last year it took us six weeks. This year,
we already sent the billing out, so we
expect to get about 90 percent of what
was pledged.”

Approximately 125 people were
involved in Jail-n-Bail, about 60 percent
students and 40 percent from the
surrounding community, Grabrielsen said.
People from the outside community were
brought to the campus by Touch of Class

Limousine Service.

Tau Epsilon Phi and Delta Phi Epsilon
were also involved in organizing the event
with AMA.

According to Lynn Boue, public
telations chair for society, “Everything
ran very smoothly...everyone worked
teally hard and had a great time.”

Several other organizations such as
UAS, Freihoffer’s, New York Seltzer,
Reserve Officers Training Corp (ROTC),
and the department of Public Safety
helped to make Jail-n-Bail a great
success, according to its sponsors.

Fond Memories of the Beach

“I'm seeking five spirited individuals
to share my home in East Hampton for
summer weekends: spacious, elegant,
secluded old house; wrap around
porch; enchanting deck for viewing
exquisite sunsets; comfortable
individual bedrooms - for respite in
this peaceful heaven. For specifics call
George 516/324-8787”

Sounds good, huh? Betcha
wanna call right now, huh? Well, good
is an understatement for the premise
of Richard Dresser’s new comedy,
Alone at the Beach, directed by Sydnie
Grosberg, which ran this weekend at
the Empire State Performing Arts
Center. This play is sparkling - a
superb and delicious summer comedy
which captures the growth of six
“spirited” and colorful individuals
who all go into a “share,” to split the
expenses of a pricy Hampton’s
weekend retreat.

Ariane Kamp

We're introduced to the central
characters as they enter the summer
home of George (Donald Berman),
once owned by his late grandparents.
Chris (Cheryl Bricker), a Manhattan
lawyer who is allergic to dogs,
despises cigarette smoke, and reads
Kafka for comic relief, is the first to
enter annoyed and tired. “Your
directions sucked,” she tells George,
who desperately tries to be a
successful host. As soon as Lonnie
(Karen Braga), an extremely flirtatious
and child-like creature, enters with
her dog Drake, we see an immediate
character conflict between the two
women, ending up ina nasty cat fight
later that evening.

Molly (Lea Floden), George's
newfound love, makes a theatrical

entrance. She runs in, trips on the
carpet, and reveals she has just been a
part of an accident. A little neurotic,
she smokes a cigarette, then grabs the
blanket on the couch, throws it over
her head and says “Shut Up!” to the
rest of the group. By now Chris is
rather pissed, the ad said no smoking
and no pets. Both rules have been
violated and it’s only been the first five
minutes. Chris throws her head back
and places her hands over her head in
frustration.

Robbie (Michael Patrick King),

enters next. He had given a lift to Alex,
a computer freak, as a favor for
George. Alex puked all over Robbie's
fur seat covers. Robbie , a sort of MTV
stud/celebrity want-to-be, is
immediately irate when he sees two
frustrated women sulking and one
with a blanket over her head, and, is
told there is no TV or telephone. The
first scene begins on an supremely
humorous beat. The sextet doubts that
they will get along for the whole
summer. The audience is rather
dubious as well.

It is mid-summer and all have
grown, in some respects, together.
They are comfortable with one
another, and almost a family. Molly
and George get very involved. George
tells us earlier that he only goes into
the city once a week - to get more work
and to see his therapist. George works
as a freelance and writes college text
books.

By July 4th, Molly’s birthday,
George is in love up to his forehead.
He prepares extensively for his love's
birthday. Before Molly and her ex-
husband enter, George is told by the
others that Molly is getting back
together with her ex. She says the
divorce has brought her and her ex
closer together. Molly wanted to warn
George, but couldn’t because there was
no phone. George is told by Chris
outright after a failed attempt by
Robbie, who can’t bear to tell lovesick
George.

The turmoils of love are
strong. George loves a woman who is
getting back with her ex. Donald
Berman’s acting is among the best I
have ever seen. My heart was ripped
out and thrown onto the floor when I
saw the look of pain, shock, deception,
and unkind reality on George's face.
To augment this tragedy, it is revealed
later that the ex is none other than

George’s therapist. Enter Joe (Lee
Shepherd). Despite George's efforts to
tell Joe he does not want him in his
house, Joe reminds George that Molly
is having financial problems. Joe is
therefore paying for her part of the
“share,” and, he explains that George
is in no financial situation to lose the
rent from the married couple.

George refuses to stay in the
house any longer. He leaves the house
to go to a nautical museum. Alex,
Lonnie, and Joe follow. Robbie, Molly
and Chris are left alone to play in the

house. Robbie takes Ecstasy, given to
him by Joe for the July 4 celebration,
and the three adults share funny
stories and a joint. “Now who’s sorry
they aren’t at the nautical museum?,”

Robbie asks as the three get stoned. _

They all end up in the shower and
then in George’s grandparent’s bed
together.

The four at the museum
discover what has happened when
they arrive home. Joe is crushed, his
wife and another man...and another
woman. George is devastated that this
happened in his house, and one of the
participants is the only woman he has
ever truly loved in his life. Lonnie is
pissed because she’s been after Robbie
all summer and he’s never made a
move. Alex, aloof throughout the
whole production, is rather distant
and confused; he tries to console the
group by talking about Sea Turtles.

Robbie, who is now flying on
Ecstacy, is thwarted with people
yelling obscenities at him, namely
Lonnie and Joe. He simply can’t take
it. So, he leaves, looking
stupendously hung-over with his
socks sticking out of his shoes . Well,
wouldn't you expect it ina superlative
situation comedy. Robbie runs over
Lonnie’s dog, Drake, in the driveway.

At this point it is difficult to
follow who is consoling whom and
who is angry at whom, but it sure is a
play that keeps you wide awake and
laughing. Robbie and Lonnie become a

sickeningly affectionate couple after
Lonnie chases Robbie around with a
live lobster and finally intimidates him
enough to have sex with her. However,
the tables turn when Lonnie refuses to
move in with Robbie when he asks.
She contends that he has given her the
strength, now that he has killed her
dog, to move on and be independent
rather than dependant on other
humans. It is now Robbie who
desperately wants Lonnie and a real
consistent relationship.

Scene three: the six say their
goodbyes, the long summer has ended.
We finally get to hear from Alex, when
he and Chris are waiting to depart. He
tells Chris he had a twin brother who
had died 4 years ago and he is still
fighting with the feeling of himself
dying, too. That is why he turned to
computers; data processing doesn’t
involve emotions, merely pure logic.
The two share a beautiful moment of
strength, energy, and hope for the
future. This moment is one of many
greats in this production. Alex is
touched and decides not to move to
France to be with the man she loves.
She decides that he must come to her,
in Manhattan, where she built up her
whole life instead.

The play, in short, is about
summer love, personal growth, and
the pains and joys of living with
people, even yourself. Alone on the
Beach is a sparkling and simply
wonderful new comedy.

Refreshing Phantom

Film remakes have become a way

of life in the eighties so it’s not
astonishing that somewhere along the
line someone decided to make an
updated version of Gaston Leroux’s
Phantom of the Opera. And as with
most modernized horror classics, this
offering is filled with more gore and
gtaphic violence than its predecessors.
However, somehow Phantom ends upa
pleasant surprise in that it is not only
watchable but a well made film in the
genre. :

Clarence Eckerson

Much of its strength lies in the
casting of Robert Englund as Eric

Desler, an aspiring young musician
who sells his soul and his charming
good looks in exchange for the
immortality of his music. Englund,
who was so deficent in the worthless
Nightmare on Elm Street series, is fresh
here and is actually able to showcase
his acting talent. Although his
Phantom isn’t quite the equal of Lon
Chaney’s 1925 portrayal, it is still
energetic and filled with a sympathetic
edge in addition to his wickedness.
Most of Phantom takes place in
London at the turn of the century.
Desler lives below the city in a
subterranean passage where he uses
the facial parts from murdered victims
to mask his hideous face. It is here that
he becomes an admirer of a promising
young understudy, Christine Daye,

played on par by newcomer Jill
Scholen. He sees a bright future for
her in the theater and gives her voice
and acting lessons from afar, never
allowing her to see his disfigurement.
His ghostlike qualities lead her to
believe that he is an angel sent by her
dead father. The admiration soon
turns to love on his part and as the
love becomes more obsessive so does
the frequency of his killings.

Desler begins to press his
mysterious relationship with Christine
which doen’t sit too well with her
current beau Richard (Alex Hyde-
White) who along with the police
inspector (Bill Nighy) have become
quite suspicious of the dark stranger.
When the local theater critic turns up
dead after panning Christine in one of
his reviews , the duo realise that there
can only be one man responsible.

Phantom is unique in many facets
ranging from a beautifully composed
background music track by Misha

Segal to its lavish and artistic set
design which captures the dark
mood of 1889 England. The
production by director Dwight H.
Little (Halloween IV) commendably
takes the emphasis off gore and
focusses it more on plot, despite a
few needless decapitation scenes.
Phantom also benefits from a
creative screenplay that shies away
from the typical horror cliches; it~
doesn’t make the mistake of trying to
make a major plot thread out of
Desler’s ‘disfigurement, since it
makes no secret of how he looks.
Refreshing, Phantom of the Opera
is an above average film that may
surprise you. Walking out of the
theater I had that rare feeling that I
actually got my moneys’ worth.

Joe Strummer

album’s closer, is

Strummer takes his listener on

a beat-poetic sojourn across the USA,
with stops at Disneyland, desert
motels, the Caribbean and assorted
urban jungles, in Earthquake Weather,
his first album since his failed attempt
to carry on the Clash three years ago.
His trademark nicotine-and-
liquor throaty vocals sound as good as
ever, and also make the words nearly
indecipherable. Doesn’t matter; he
provided a lyric sheet. Knowing the
words and knowing what he means,
however, are two different things.
Strummer has never been one to offer
his listeners candy. An example from
“King of the Bayou”: “Rushing
through the rush hour on an all-
nighter / I never seen you look so
young / The world really looks from
this doughnut store / Such a funny
color in the sun.” No set-up or
explanation, just images, most of atin
which seem to be fueled by modern
America, with tributes to the Be Bop
Nation, the Islands and survivors of
| the big city battleground.
But if his poetry leaves you
| scratching your head, many of the
| melodies may have you tapping (or
stomping) your feet. “Shouting Street”
| and”Jewellers and Bums” are two of ©
the record’s rockers which deny you
| the right not to join in on the choruses.
“Leopardskin Limousines” _ is

poignant, and “Sleepwalker,” the

downright
Earthquake Weather melancholy. Most of the songs are

attempt at a Clash comeback sans Mick

us to genuine guitar solos, complete
with wah-wah, by Zander Schloss.
They work pretty well.)

Some of the lyrics sound

pretty awkward to sing, as though
Strummer had simply plopped them
onto the tunes at the last minute, but
he makes up for it at other moments,
when words, music and beat combine
succinctly and irresistably.
All in all the album is a
strange but satisfying dish: you’re not
sure what you're eating but it hits the

“That's Not Her Style,” a thinly

and “Downeastern Alera” about the

that Billy is a family man, while

Unfortunately, after “I Go To

forgettable lyrics, the rest of the album

Ban styrofoam

Wednesday at 12:30, the New York Public Interest
Research Group will stage a demonstration on the|
podium, urging SUNYA to stop using styrofoam
food service products. A big crowd would be a good
sign.

The environmental hazards of using styrofoam are
becoming common knowledge. According to
NYPIRG, incinerating the product creates toxic air
pollution, and packing it into landfills, where it will
remain for hundreds of years, is an unacceptable
alternative - we simply don’t have the space. The
manufacture of styrofoam releases
chlorofluorocarbons, which damage the ozone layer,
or the gas pentane, which causes smog, depending on
the method of production used. And the litter that
doesn’t make it to the dump or the incinerator is not
only an eyesore, it’s a serious-threat to the health of
wildlife.

The group also points out that styrofoam is a
petroleum based product, and so depletes a non-
renewable resource, as well as contributing to|
international problems that stem from the quest for|
oil.

Banning the use of styrofoam would put SUNYA
in good company: Suffolk County, Berkley, Ca. and|
Los Angeles have all prohibited its use in public}
buildings.

University Auxilliary Services has apparently
made some effort to reduce the school’s dependency
on styrofoam products, including making reusable
plastic trays available in cafeterias and looking into
the possibility of switching to paper goods. But the|
foam trays, plates, bowls and cups that UAS now
uses are cheap, are thought to be attractive, and to be|
honest, do a pretty good job of keeping your food on
your plate and your coffee warm. It will take some
convincing public outcry to run this product off
campus for good.

But it will also take some cooperation, as UAS
manager Norb Zahm pointed out to his customers in|
a letter addressing the problem. Recent weeks have,
seen the disappearance of some 44 dozen plastic’
trays, he said. At $1.40 a pop - the figure Zahm cited!
- this kind of theft will produce a financial loss that!
UAS could not be expected to absorb.

So go to the rally, and yell your head off. And at|
dinner, avoid the styrofoam trays. Take a plastic one
(if one isn’t there, ask why), and replace it when|
you’re finished, Both actions will make a difference.

Vote!

Speaking of making a difference, today is a day
that people all over the world are working, fighting,
praying, and too often dying for. Yes, the platitudes
start flying every November, but don’t think they’re'
cliches. We hear the message over and over because|
it’s that important: it is our duty to vote.

The right to vote where you go to school is one
that students in Albany are fortunate to have won.
Many communities have succeeded in denying}
representation to their student citizens. Thanks to
groups like the Student Association of the State
University (SASU), we have a chance to participate,
in the democracy so highly touted in our classrooms.
Now, a former SASU activist is running for Albany’s|
Common Council, and students have a chance to be}
involved. That’s not an endorsement; it’s just
something to think about.

Something else to think about: you won’t see his
name on the ballot, because he’s a write-in candidate,
but there is indeed ar‘opponent to Mayor Thomas P.
Whalen III in today’s election. Whalen, you may
remember, recently called off-campus students a)
“constant source of irritation” and last summer
evicted the Party from Washington Park. He is going,
to be re-elected, but if you want to make a statement,
his opponent’s name is Jon Drucker. Make sure you
spell it correctly.

COLUMN

An alternative to mid-term examinations

Will tests rule our lives? Everywhere at SUNY
Albany you are faced with those
dreaded.....{sob}...exams. Whether it’s a soc mid
term or a bio exam, these little buggers are
inevitable. To the regret of all SUNYA students,
we cannot control when they are given. These
exams (or mid terms as some of our loveable
professors named them), can interrupt our social
life and free time. Is there no hope to set our

John Wong

minds free of these dreary tests? Must we
students go on fearing exams day and night?
These creepy little annoying exams which our
fellow enlightened professors have based a huge
majority (in most cases, all of it) of our grades
causes nervousness and anxiety among us
students. Nervousness and anxiety can compound
into major problems for us. Practically every
SUNYA student has faced stress when an exam
approaches. Little Susie (a business major wanna-
be) says to herself, “Oh I have to get that A in
accounting so that I can get into the business

«school so that I can get a job later on in life......”

Get the point? The professors can also hand out
A’s to everone without any regard! So what is the
purpose of college if everone breezes through? Is
there a solution on how a teacher should give a
grade if they exclude all exams?

Fortunately for the SUNY studnets, there’s a

better way for professors to give us hapless
students a grade without objective tests (usually
multiple choice). Essay papers are the name of the
game. Students should be required to turn in a
medium size essay paper on the subject matter
rather than take exams. Be honest, would you
prefer an essay paper in which you have a slightly
better chance of scoring higher (because you
prepared in advance for it) or so called objective
multiple choice scantron (yuk!) test? Essays to the
rescue! Teachers in liberal arts classes (Sociology,
Psychology, etc.) should hand out essay
assignments and grade them in lieu of an exam. In
these take home essays, a person could show a
professor he or she has taken the time to research
a topic (well some SUNYA students did)
necessary for the paper. Bennington College in
Vermont has this type of system! Where are the
complaints? Despite all these problems, essays
should lead the way. ;

Is there a major exam heading your way? What
will you do? Pull a few all nighters? Start to
panic? With my system, all this can be eliminated.
You can definitely express your thoughts better
writing than filling in the correct answer spaces.
There’s less worrying and greater benefits to my
system. But now I have to go, there’s a Sociology
test next week...that...[ have to study for...

Our bodies, Our choice

To the Editor:

On November 12th, the opportunity will arise to stand
together in defense of our innate right to freedom of
choice, While living on the Eastern seaboard, our
responsibility lies in the joint unification of our fellow
supporters in the rally at The Lincoln Memorial in
Washington D.C. The five buses currently scheduled to
go from our university will be joined by other students
and women’s choice advocates including 15 supporters
will gather with candles to remind President Bush that
women are to be included in his thousand points of light.
Across the country, women and men will be mobilizing
to show their support for reproductive freedom.

The march in Washington last April 9th was intended
to urge The Supreme Court to support a woman’s right to
choose in regards to the case Webster v. Reproductive
Health Services. But, despite our efforts, the Court
upheld Missouri’s statute’s preamble declaring that life
begins at conception, it prohibits abortion in public
facilities, and requires fetal viability tests. The result has
been an increase in the cost of abortion and limitation to
reproductive health services for poor women. Since the
Court’s decision, the Louisiana legislature voted to
enforce an anti-choice law carrying the penalty of one to
ten years for doctors who perform abortions. A New
Orleans district attorney threatened to arrest “any woman
seeking an abortion or clinic worker who performs an
abortion.” The authors of our Constitution did not intend
freedom to be a function of geography or wealth, rather,
an implicit right form birth.

There are three new abortion cases currently facing the
Supreme Court. The Court is split on the issue, with
Justice O’Conner representing one possible swing vote.
On November 12th, Pro-Choice advocates in 100 cities
and 44 states will unite to implore the court to allow
women to be able to make their own choices for their
own futures. The upcoming cases will deal with parental
notification and restrictive licensing of outpatient
abortion clinics, Freedom is not a novelty, the November
12th rally is not just about theory, it’s about a threat to
women’s lives.

Each Quad will be having a speaker and discussion
about the Pro-Choice issue during the week of October
30 - November 3. The potential implications of the
upcoming cases and questions about the issue in general
will be discussed. These discussions will take place as
follows:

Monday Colonial 7pm
Tuesday State 7pm
Wednesday Dutch 7pm
Thursday Indian 7pm
Friday Alumni Tpm

Students For Choice meets every Thursday at 7 pm in
the SA Lounge. Bus tickets can be purchased for the
November 12th march at the Students For Choice table
in front of the Campus Center. The cost is $35, but
subsidies are readily available. Don’ allow your freedom
to be taken.

Review off beat

To the Editor:

I was particularly alarmed and distressed by an article
which appeared in the ASP on Tuesday, October 31
about Bob Dylan’s recent concert at the RPI Fieldhouse
and more specifically, about his career.

The title of the article read “Songwriter Dylan on
Stage,” but the author, Stef McDonald, persisted on
mentioning Bob Dylan’s voice. In fact, the author started
off the first two paragraphs reiterating about Bob Dylan’s
voice which “sure ain’t pretty.” Stef, Dylan has never
claimed to have a clear and resounding voice. In
addition, he is not known for, and will not be
remembered for, his voice.

Mr. Dylan is probably the most prolific and revered

songwriter in the world. He has been openly praised as
being a leading inspiration for the Beatles, Bruce
Springstein, John Cougar Melloncamp, Eric Clapton, and
Jimi Hendrix among others to make an observation about
Bob Dylan’s voice in 1989, 28 years after he started
Tecording his poems, is not an ingenious observation.

Instead of literally tearing apart his voice, you should
have concentrated on his work during the 60’s for civil
rights, his contributions to rock ‘n roll, and his
tremendous impact on the lives of thousands of
Americans and teenagers throughout the world.

For example, Billy Joel, on his recent tour to the
Soviet Union, did not close his tour with one of his own
songs, but on the other hand, proudly sang “The Times
They Are-a-Changin’.” In addition, on the recent
Amnesty Tour for human rights, Sting, Bruce
Springstein, and Peter Gabriel closed the show with the
“Chimes of Freedom,” a song written by Dylan 25 years
ago.

John Cougar Melloncamp paid tribute to Dylan by
closing his 1986 tour with “Like a Rolling Stone,” a song
recorded by Dylan in 1965. In addition, the Grateful
Dead sings at least one Bob Dylan song in almost all of
their shows.

Instead of berating Dylan for his voice, the author
should have concentrated on the tremendous impact
which Dylan has had on the last 25 years.

An immature letter

Tm a bit disappointed in the A.S.P. I like to believe
that your “letters” section was intended to allow students
to express their thoughts on the subjects that they feel are
of relevance to the SUNYA community. Hence, I feel
that the editors demonstrated rather poor taste in printing
a letter entitled “Thanks, I needed that,” by George
Roseamond, of the International Socialist Organization
(October 31).

To me, and many other, this letter, thinly disguised as a
thank-you note, appeared more like a petty, sarcasm-
laden attempt by the writer to seek revenge on certain
members of the Revisionist Zionist Alternative. Perhaps
Mr. Roseamond was embarrased by thier quick and
energetic response to what they believed to be an attempt
on his part to misinform A.S.P. readers about the nature
of the State of Israel. Whatever his motives were, his
letter demostrated what appears to be complete
unconcern for maintaining cordial relationships between
school organizations of diverse interests.

Let’s keep the A.S.P. free of the immaturity of
personal vendettas. SUNY students do not have enough

forums for factual debate that we my contaminate them
So easily.

Damages

Continued from Front page
glue traps. The students said they
should not be billed for having
mice in their room, which was
not their fault.

In order to seek a redress, the
students must go through certain
administrative channels. To
contest damage charges, students
must write a letter of appeal to
Residential Life. If, after the
appeal, a problem still exists,
students will meet with their
Quad Coordinator and go over
the review. If no agreement is
found then, the problem is taken
to Steve Galime, assistant
director of Facilities and
Operations in the department of
Residential Life.

As of this year, according to
Galime, the process of assessing
room damages and _ the
subsequent charges has been
changed, “We want to be more
fair to the students. We now give
copies of the RCR to the students
at the beginning of the year so
they are more aware of it,”
Galime said.

He also said under the system
used last year, if a student was to
be billed, the Residence Director
and the Quad Coordinator would
assess the damages. By having
two people look over the
damages, Galime said it would
be less likely that an error would
be made.

“However, if a student feels
that a mistake has been made,
they can meet with their Quad
Coordinator or myself to discuss
it,” Galime said.

According to the old system
under which the four students
were billed, the Residence
Assistants (RAs) were supposed
to go through each room and
assess them all equally. Hyman
said she had spoken to her RA
and that her RA knew that the
damages had been there since the
students had moved in.

Galime said while they take
into account the normal wear and
tear of a suite, it is necessary to
charge for the major damages.

These charges are determined
by the Physical Plant, Galime
said, and are based on labor and
materials. Officials at the
Physical Plant could not be
Teached for comment.

Hyman said $296.48 to paint a
12’ x 12’ room is excessive.
“The billing is outrageous. How
Can it be that expensive to paint
one room?”

Hyman said she was shocked
by the extensive bill and was
also offended. “Last year,” she
said, “I was Quad Board
President of Colonial. For all the
work I did, this is how I am
being paid back.”

Semitic incidents mar holidays

(CPS) The Jewish holidays were marred
by a smattering of Anti-semitic incidents
on a number of campuses.

A University of California at Berkeley
professor refused to cancel an exam he
scheduled on Yom Kippur, celebrated this
year on Oct. 9, just a day after three
Jewish students at Brooklyn College were
physically attacked.

Ten days earlier, a non-Jewish Penn
State University fraternity offended many
Jewish students by hosting a theme party
on Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year.

In the most serious incident, Brooklyn
College students Steven Weisburg, Joshua
Fogel, and Steve Eilat were attacked and
injured as they left Yom Kippur Eve
services at the campus’s Hillel House.

Weisburg and Fogel were hospitalized.

“This is an isolated thing,” said
Brooklyn police Inspector Paul
Sanderson, who noted three local teens
had been arrested for attacked the

students. “I don’t recall anything coming

in of this magnitude.” Sanderson added
that most cases of anti-Semitism he sees
involve verbal abuse like harassing phone
calls or swastikas painted on walls.

Words written on nametags prompted
complaints at Penn State, where the Phi
Gamma Delta fraternity held a Rosh
Hashanah theme party. Guests were given
tags featuring Jewish-sounding names and
the names of Nazi leaders.

“This incident probably stemmed from
lack of exposure and education about the
Jewish community,” said Interfraternity
Council President Tom Lynch, who put
the house on social probation for the rest
of the semester and required fraternity
members to attend a sensitivity workshop.

Berkeley students, in turn, accused
sociology Prof. Harry Edwards of being
insensitive to his Jewish students’ feelings
when he refused to reschedule a test,
despite requests from 47 of the 500 people
in his class.

ho were offended by the
editorial. Smith said one of the
reasons they were upset was
because of Shanock’s negative
reference to Louis Farrakhan.
“He in the eyes of the public is
one of the key figures in society
who's speaking for the Black’s,”
Smith said.

Caringi has already made an
apology over the air on behalf of
WCDB. “When I found out the
racial connotation of it we
decided that I’d make an apology
on behalf of the station and that
there would be a suspension
also.”

Shanock said he felt that
listener response increased the
length of his suspension.

Jeff Hart, Contemporary Soul
Director, said that whether
listeners called or not Shanock
was going to be reprimanded. He
was going to get suspended
through WCDB alone, but
listener response increased the
pressure.”

On Nov. 26, Shanock can

_ Albany swim teams begin winter season

By Jerry L. Kahn
STAFF WRITER

Saturday November 4 was the opening
day for the men’s and the women’s
swimming teams; they competed in the
Union Relay Invitational. The two teams
finished near the middle of the pack; as
they were sixth in a field of 12, and the
men were eighth of 11.

“This year, we have a very young
team,” Albany coach David Turnage said.
“We still have some individuals who will
do very well this year. Some of the times
(will) really improve. It’s going to be a
lot of building this year”

The first event was the 400 medley
relay, and Albany’s women finished
eighth at 4:44.2. Freshman Megan
Fairlie, junior Kim McDonald, junior
Lisa Braun, and senior Andrea
Caporuscio swam for the Danes.

“Tt was a good indicator of what the
competition is going to be like,”
McDonald said. “There ‘s a lot of team
unity. People swam well.”

The men finished fifth in the event
with a time of 3:58.9. Swimming for
them were sophomore Frank Skibo,
freshman Aaron Montgomery,
sophomore Jason Kaye, and freshman
John Bonade.

Next was the 800 freestyle relay. The
Danes’ women did not compete, but the
men finished eight with a mark of 9:23.6.
The swimmers were sophomore Adam
Isaacson, sophomore Elliot Arno,
sophomore Joe Fristachi, and junior Rob
Sullivan.

Afterwards was the 300 backstroke
relay. The women were 11th at 4:24.9.

lot of new people on the team helped a
lot.”

Then was the 300 breaststroke relay,
where the women sent McDonald,
freshman Sarah Klein, and senior Chris
Fleury. They came in fifth at 4:09.6.

“Tt was a good learning experience for

was pleased with our team’s
performance.”

The ninth and tenth events were the
200 butterfly relay. The women had

11th spot in the event.

“Lisa Braun had a very good meet,”
McDonald said. “She swam a very good
time.”

The men were tenth at 3:17.4. They
entered Kaye, junior Marc Potash, and
freshman Jeff Classen.

The diving was the next event. For the
women it is their strength for the men , it
is their biggest weakness.

Great Danes take upstate ECAC crown

Men's soccer uses OT
win to claim first title

Several records have been
eclipsed by the Albany men’s
soccer team in what has been a
stellar season. Another first was
recorded on Sunday. By
defeating Alfred 3-1 in overtime,
the Great Danes (16-2) captured
its first ever ECAC upstate New
York region championship.

Without going as far as
declaring the season oyer, Dane
head coach Aldo Nardiello
seemed to feel that the Danes’
latest feat has officially made
their year a success.

“It’s a feather in our cap,”
Nardiello said. “Whatever we do
from here is gravy.”

With thirteen minutes left in
Sunday’s regional final, these
sentiments were not in
Nardicllo’s mind. At that point,
the Saxon’s Mark Fish had just
sent a hard drive into the upper
left corner of the net for a 1-0
Alfred (8-6-2) lead.

With the season in jeopardy of
ending a little earlier than
desired, Nardiello had his team
utilize what he called “soccer’s
version of a full-court press.”

“We took out a defender
(Scott Grimes) and put in an
extra attacker (Yves Limage),”
said Danes’ technical director
Vlado Sergovich.

This meant that strikers
Limage, Lee Tschantret, and
Erick Cifuentes were all in the
line-up, when normally no more
than two of the three are on the
field together.

Albany’s attack after that was
furious, but never out of control.
“We practice high-pressure
Situations,” Nardiello said. “The
guys didn’t panic. They
implemented emergency
strategy.”

Using these tactics, the Danes
tied the game only five minutes
after falling behind.With seven
minutes left in regulation, Scott
Goldstein assisted Tschantret’s
twelfth goal of the season.

The first period of overtime
featured an unusual, but correct,
no-call by the referee. With
under two minutes left, Limage
was taken down in the Saxons’
penalty box. As he lay there
shaken up, Albany’s Mark
Newfield took possession of the
loose ball and knocked it by

although technically offsides,
was not whistled for being so.
As Sergovich later explained,
Limage wasn’t ruler offsides
because he wasn’t taking
advantage of his position on the
field.

Albany’s third and final goal
came from the hustle of Kevin
Lehman, who was replacing an
injured Marty Hearney, in the
second overtime period. Lehman
spectacularly dove and headed
in Ken Perkins’ direct kick with
six minutes left.

The Danes will now face
Kean (NJ), the winner of the
ECAC metro Mew York region
by virtue of its win Sunday over
Glassboro.

The match will be played at
Cole Field at Williams College
on Saturday at 11:00.

In the other semifinal contest,
at 1:30, Frostburg State (MD),
Southern region winners, will
take on Williams from the New
England region. The winners
will square off in Sunday’s 1:00
final.

In their opening playoff game
on Friday, Albany eliminated
Hobart (9-6-4) by the score of 1-
0. Tschantret’s goal, with the
assist from Perkins, provided the
difference.

through the first half, but Joe
Esposito’s goal was nullified by
an offsides call.

With another scoreless
defensive performance, led by
goalie Brian Lehrer, Albany
extended its school record for
shutouts to eleven. Other team
marks that the Danes added to
are consecutive wins (twelve)
and total wins.

Nardiello was delighted with
the team’s victory in the finals
largely because it was a reward
for the eight senior starters.

“At least they’ve finished as
ECAC regional champions,” he
said. The team accomplished this
by playing “the best game we
played all year,” according to
Nardiello.

“Fitness was a key,” he added,
with Chris Chruma topping the
list of players who Nardiello felt
displayed excellent endurance in
Sunday’s 120 minute overtime
match.

They will now have to face the
New England champs, Plymouth
State (number three in the
nation), this weekend.
