Union Kicks Danes, 69-58

Bill Scanlon's Union club buried
Albany for the second time this
season Tuesday, 69—$8, leaving no
doubt as to which team owns the
bragging rights locally for the com-
ing yea!
If you're searching for a reason as
to why Union dominated the Danes
again, you won't find the answer in
the offensive arithmetic from the
scoring sheets.
‘Albany shot 50 percent from the
field, usually a game-winning mark,
hit 8096 from the fout-line(12for 15),
‘outrebounded the Dutchmen 32—
26, and posted 15 assists to Union's
six,
The tell-tale statistic, this time,
was’ the turnover column—Albany
22, Union 12.To put that figure in
perspective, if you concede the
Danes would have made'50% of the
total number of shots they were
denied, then Albany mistakes cost its
club at least 20 points, maybe more.
“On any normal night you expect
10 or 12 turnovers,” Bill Scanlon
said later, “Tonight State made too

Women Gymnasts Roll On

Facing their busiest weekend
schedule, the Albany State Women's
Gymnastics team skillfully captured
three of the four meets and broke
‘one uneven bar,
The gymnasts competed in a
three-way meet January 23 against
Hofstra and Hunter colleges, dow-

“We're not scoring as well as we

team is solid,” said Cobane, “We're
aiming for the 70's,”
Carla Landsman and Patty

Finishing up on the floor for Albany
was Carla Landsman (6,56) second,
and Barbara Hommel was third.
On the following day Albany
traveled to Queens College and
dumped the city gymnasts by 16

“We really cleaned up on that
one,” says Cobane, “It shows an in-

hoop off a steal by Mike
Suprunowice and Brian Barker's
jumper gave Albany a quick 6—1
lead.
Kevin Keane's layup at 13:48 gave
the Danes a 9—S cushion, But when
Pete Meola scored for Union two
minutes later, giving the Dutchmen
their first lead at 10—9, the Danes
would never catch up and only Mike
Suprunowicz’s pretty spinning
floater at 11:36 prevented Union
from running off 15 unanswered

Union broke fast once the second
half began. Six minutes past inter-
mission the Dutchmen opened up a
44—33 lead, on baskets by five
different players.
After a Doc Sauers’ time-out,
Albany made its last serious bid,
scoring eight straight points to close

by Ken Kurtz
The Albany State junior varsity
basketball team defeated their Un-
ion College counterparts 82—75,
‘Tuesday at University Gym.
The first half was a see-saw baitle,
as the lead changed hands five times.
Albany had difficulty with outside
shooting, contrasting the hot hand
of Union’s Mark Rekucki. Rekucki,
a freshman, scored 19 points in the
first half and plays both JV and var-
sity games. Dave Landrey led a
balanced Albany first half attack
with six points. Union held a 30—28
halftime lead.
Albany came out of the
lockerroom fired up, and reeled off
10 straight points. John Grabowski
gave Albany a 32-30 lead, a lead the
Pups were never to relinquish. Starr-
ing in the opening minutes of the se-
cond half was freshman guard
Winston Royal who made two fine
steals and scored four points in con-
tributing to State's 38—30 lead,
Albany dominated thesecond half
of play and the victory gave the JV,
coached by Bill Austin, a record of

*Nobody could get to school.”
University buses weren't running,
leaving off-campus students off cam-
pus. ley roads, poor visibility and
blustering winds immobilized many
faculty and student motorists.
One thing, though, was virtually
unaffected. The Quad cafeterias
were in operation yesterday
morning—understaffed but still dis-

“Km sorry it [SUNYA] had to

Hundreds of schools, private in-

throughout New York Statewere
closed. Even the State Capitol was
stil.
Although all of upstate New York
was hit hard, the highest ground-
level gust was recorded in Albany at
67 miles per hour.
According to the National
Weather Service, a cold-air system
moving in from the west collided
with a coastal rainstorm and created
the blizzard. Dropping

“We didn’t predict the severity,”
said Ken LaPrenta, of the National
Weather Service in Albany, "We did

high winds. It got a little colder than
we thought a little faster. . .”
Frostbite Warnings
A special report from the weather
service called the storm “the most
severe weather in this area in several
years.” Forecasters urged people to
stay indoors if possible and warned
that exposure tothe cold could result
in frostbite.

Tenure Case Draws Faculty
by C. S, Santino
According to his colleagues in the
English department, Michael Kauf-
man has.presented the strongest case
for tenure in years,
He will probably be fired by June,
1977.
The reason, says Kaufman, who
awaits President Emmett B. Fields’
inal decision in his case, has nothing
to do ‘with his teaching or
scholarship, which many cite as be-
ing beyond reproach.
Kaufman feels he is the “victim of
questionable procedures,” used by
the administration, “in an effort to
fire junior English professors and
save the graduate program."
Fields, following the recommen-
dations of an outside evaluator's
report submitted last fall, is pushing

junior faculty members, Jerry Paris
and Victor Chang of the English
department have already been
notified that their contracts will not
be renewed.
Kaufman's tenure case, which
begun last fall, has been beset by
controversy, paradox, and unusual
tactics
Kaufman passed the first hurdle of
the four-step tenure process, the
departmental review, last October,
The English department voted 49 to
4 in favor of tenure and 30 to 19 for
promotion.

reputation here,” the report states,

sult of a resolution passed by
the FSA Board of Directors.
This ruling represented a com-
between Faculty-Student
Association General Manager E.
Norbert. Zahm and FSA Board
President Stu Klein. It was passed
last Wednesday with ten Board
members in favor and none against.
There were two abstentions.
According to Klein, the reason for
the move was based on the six-
month financial statement for FSA
ending December 31, 1975. It was
discovered that the bar had revenues
of over $10,000, though it had only
been open for nine weeks.
The har has a projected profit tine
of $16,600 for 1975-76, At the pre-
sent rate, the bar would easily exceetd
that figure by the entf of this‘tertn
According to Klein, "We're not in
business 1o make money. The money
will be used to cover up other
money-losing items like Dippikill
and Mohawk Campus.”
During the meeting, Zahm noted
that the reduced prices would be
“special prices for the Rathskeller to
see what will happen, I don't know
what it will do.
Afterwards though, Zahm ex-
pressed apprehension, saying that
the lower prices could create a point
of conflict between the Rathskeller
and off-campus bars.
A. similar situation existed at
SUNY Buffalo with their record co-
op, which was highly competitive
with off-campus record stores
Recently, the co-op was forced to
Prices Down
change its policies to accomodate the
off-campus business.
However, Klein believes no one
will complain about the
Rathskeller’s lower prices,
‘The price reductions which will
vary between 5 percent and 16 per-
cent are only one facet in what Zahm
calls an overall plan, which". . .will
make the place more attr
student
At the present time, aver $7,000
has been spent to refurnish the whole
Rathskeller, with an additional $1,-
000 being spent for a new sound
system, Altogether, the costs of these
and various other innovations will
be approximately'$25,000,
Rathskeller Committee
To make the area more appealing
to students, Zahm has expressed a
desire to form a committee to work
with him in the running of the
“Ranhskellér? ee
The committee, like the old Cam-
pus Center Governing Board
(CCGB), would be comprised most-
ly. of students, ‘The CCGB was
responsible for recommending the
building of the Rathskeller Bar, and
has since been dissolved.
Jay Miller, an FSA Board
member, gave a dissenting opinion.
1 don't think that’s necessary,
because it might become too cen-
tralized,” said Miller. “The way itis
now... with several Student
Association committees advising,
may be alitte difficult for Mr. Zahm,
but it is good. In the event that two
committees are in disagreement,
then we [the committees and Mr.
Zahm) can meet together to deal
with an issue.”

ed for the 11:10 Wellington bus
Just Wednesday morning. It never
came ot
While she waited for another bus,
Skorulski explained, “The
Wellington bus today was supposed
to leave the circle at 11:10, and 1 got
out of class at 11:00, . . 1ran, There
was no Wellington bus, so now I'm
having to wait for half an hour for a
Wellington bus that was supposed to
be here. I'd say it was probably sup-
posed to be here about 11:05, and 1
was out here."
Skorulski finally caught an {1:30
bus.
Motor Pool Supervisor Jack
Olsen explained what happened to
the 11:10 Wellington run on January
28.
According to him, the driver who
makes the morning Wellington runs

has been making Draper runs all
morning.
According to Olsen, this means
that the relief driver may not have
had « Wellington bus sign in his bus
or may have forgotten to put it up.”
Olsen maintained that, although im-
properly marked, the 11:10
Wellington run was there on the
morningthat Skorulski waited for it
In reference to the bus's improper
marking, Plant Superintendent Ira
DeVoe commented, “Sounds like
maybe we goofed.
Olsen offered additional ex-
planations for buses which are
allegedly late. "Some of these people
[waiting for buses} aren't paying
attention or lose track of time,” says
Olsen, “You've gota variance in
watches," he adds, Olsen maintains
that “given a given situation, 1 can
defend each bus."
Given the hypothetical situation
of an 11:05 Draper run which does
not Jeave until 11:20 Olsen explains,
“1 would doubt very, very, very
much that the 11:05 is 15 minutes
ate."
‘One student who wishes to remain
anonymous commented, “I've heard
the bus drivers say that it is really
hard to make the [Draper] run in 20
minutes
Olsen denies that his drivers are
not given sufficient time to. make
their runs,
Allowing for truffie conditions,
Olsen claims, “You show me the
driver that can't make those runs in
reasonable weather, and I think he's
in the wrong profession.”
According to DeVoe, theschedule
is designed for good weather con-
ditions, “You can’t plan for the ex-
ception,” he says. “We never had a
problem at all Last semester.”
Everyone seems 10 have
something to say about the buses:
Says junior Jeanne Saiewitz, “The
buses have been victims [of] poor
planning. The number of buses that
run ut the prescribed time of classes
is not proportionately correct.”
Olsen maintains that he is never
given any information regarding
factor in the capture. “Now we call
him Dialing Dempsey," kidded
Schwartz.
and wasn’t
when classes are being given or how
many students are enrolled in
specific classes
‘Asked if such information could
be incorporated into the bus
schedule Olsen says, “I don't know.
I've never had it to work with. The
only thing I have to work with is my
past experience,
Not all student comments regar-
ding the bus service have been
derogatory, On the question of
whether off-campus studehts should
be allowed to ride the SUNYA
buses, off-campus student Ellen
Sorrentino says, “I think we're pretty
lucky to have the buses that come
down that far because actually the
buses, I thought, were only to runfor
the downtown dorm students and
the Wellington."
According to Suiewitz, “A whole
culture has almost arisen around the
bus line.”
While students are waitingfor and
talking about the buses, student
jers ure attempting to effect
changes in the present schedule.
According to Alumni Quad Board
Representative Bryant Monroe, it
as been suggested that buses wait
between runs at Alumni Quad in-
stead of at Draper Hall, inthe hopes
that more Alumni students will be
able to catch their buses,
DeVoe says, “We're looking into
that, and we'd like very much ta do
that,
Although problems with parking
regulations in the city of Albany
prevented such a move several yeurs
‘ago, DeVoe claims, "One of our peo-
ple is now writing to the Albany
Traffic Division to see if we can do
that
Regarding student suggestions
general DeVoe says, “Any good in-
put we get is taken into considers
tion.” He adds, “You can't please
everybody with the facilities we
have, Nothing is a cure-all except
money.”
‘Olsen says of his schedule, “By no
meansdo I sayit's perfect, i'there's a
problem, it’s being taken care of to
the best of our ability.”

Sirotkin had no effect on the vote,
“He was trying to give the com-

Schmidt. “The English depart-
ment has lower standards than other

‘Schmidt also wrote in her letter
that “The chairman's statement that
‘Kaufman is the one actively

When asked to clarify this
seemingly contradictory statement,
Schmidt refused to comment. She
did say that she staunchly supports
the English-Ph.D, program. Accor-
ding to Schmidt, SUNYA, being a
university center, needs strong
graduate programs.
The complete reversal of “the
English department's tenure vote,
Sirotkin’s appearance at the Arts

people to regard the motives of the

China Will Fill Plate of Future
by Edward Moser
“The 20th has been the American
century. . . As Hook to the 2ist, 1
think China will be equal to or
greater than America or Russia,”
said Dr. Mann-Chiang Niu,
professor of Biology at Temple Un-
iversity, In a lecture here Thursday,
Niu spoke of China's egalitarianism,
progress, independence, and what he
called its future greatness,
In his four visits to the Chinese
mainland since 1972, Niu he was
especiallyimpressed by China's open
door system of education. Accor-
ding (o him, it stresses, “not only the
principle, but the pr aspect” of
learning
in medicine, says Niu, prospective
doctors “study in the classroom f
certain time, then go to the coun
iryside where they learn [their
trade] from the workers
peasants.” The purpose in
¢ the gap between city and
country, peasant and urban dweller
so that everyone can be the same.”
Niu said the results of such efforts
were remarkable, Staying with
health care as an example, Niu ex-
plained how everyone in China is
equal

cover the family's health care for a

proved the Chinese ace
complishing this goal of ine
dependence.
Niu told of the male workers in
desolate Manchuria who had built
machinery to extract oil while the
female laborers had cleared the land
around the oil fields.
“Now, half a million workers
supply much of their own food," said
Niu, “Soon they'll be self-sufficient.”

He claimed that, as statistical pro-
jections for 1980 show, the Chinese
will have quadrupled their grain

A Maryland drug researcher is

lettuce heads,
Bill Olmsted, the operator of a
company called “Natural Enter-
prizes”, claims that he can manufac-
ture a form of legal opium out of
plain, ordinary lettuce.
Olmsted has taken out a series of
ads in alternative papers around the

structions, or the opium itself. Ac-

ing a mildly-intoxicating opium out

the payroll of the C.I.A.
However, the magazine alleges

says that “payments” in return for

Variety quotes one investigator as

fine without one if you just stay calm and tell
your story as clearly as possible. It is on your
facts that the case is decided.
12. What Happens If The Other Person
Does Not Show Up At All?
‘Youwin. Ifthe other partyin the case does not
appear, the judge may still ask you some
questions to determine if you have a legitimate
complaint and probably will grant you a
default judgement. If you don't come to the
hearing, your claim will be dismissed.
13. What Will The Judge Ask? What Are
‘The Procedures involved?
The presiding judge (cither the Honorable
Thomas M. Whalen I, of the Honorable John
J. Yanas. or the Honorable Morton M. Z.
Lyn) will swear in both parties and then
proceed with questions. The judge will first
ask the person who filed the claim to state
his/her side of the story. Be calm and stick to
the facts, don’t get overly emotional. Then the
second party has a chance to tell his/her side
of the story. Remember. do not interrupt. You
will have a chance to challenge his/her
statements when s/he finishes. The judge may
then ask questions to clarify the important
points. Basically, the court procedure involves
two peopletelling their sides of a disagreement
and a judge making a decision about what
should be done. After all the questions, each
party will have a chance to say a final word.
summarizing their positions.
14. What Should | Bring To Court?
Anything to prove your point. Bring
witnesses, letters, documents, written ¢s-
‘timates, or anything else to show that your
aim and the amount you are asking for is
reasonable. Your proof must show that the
person you are suing owes you money or that
the person sold you damaged goods or that the
person performed services poorly. It is possi-
ble to subpoena (force the appearance of)
witnesses or documents under the control of
the other party. If you need 10 dothis, ask the
‘Small Claims Court Clerk about it. It is asim-
ple procedure, but does not cost money.
If you tried to settle the problem out of
court, tell the judge. This will show that you
tried to be reasonable.
Witnesses arc ineipful in court, even ones
who are related to you. If a witness cannot
appear in court, have a written statement
drawn up and the both of you present it toa
notary public for notarization. The judge may
accept this as evidence. Of course it is much
better to have the witness in court. The day
before court. call up all your witnesses to re-
mind them of your trial
A word of pre-advice: If you areinvolvedin
a problem that might wind upin Small Claims
Court. write complaint letters. Don't just
phone. (For example. if you bought a pair of
expensive boots that fell apart after two day’s
‘wear. write the shoe store a letter detailing the
problem and asking for a refund or exchange
In this way you have written proof that you
tried to solve the problem.) Keep copies of all
receipts. letters and any other documents you
might need.
15. How And When Will | Hear About The
Results Of My Case?
After listening to your case the judge has
two choices—he can give his decision right
away (while you're still in court) or he can
reserve decision. Reserving a decision means
that he will send you away. later review the
facts and then notify both parties by mail of
his decision. The judge can take as long as he
wants to make the decision. but usually you
will hear within two months.
16. Can | Appeal?
Either person may appeal. but if you filed
the claim and lost. there usually is no point in
appealing unless you fee! the judge was really
unfair to you. It costs $2.00 to start an appeal
and the case is then sent to the County Court
which has regular court procedures. If you
‘wish to appeal, speak to a lawyer.
‘17. I've Won. How Do! Collect?
‘The court will tell the other party. either in
court or in the letter of decision, that payment
is due within 30 days. THE SMALL CLAIMS
HAS NO COLLECTION RESPON-
SIBILITIES. If payment does not come
within the specified time you must take action
to collect. Go back to the small Claims Court
Clerk. You will be able to obtain an * sncome
execution (this is a claim to money from a per-
son's salary). a property execution (claiming
personal property in the amount youare due).
or toattach —ais/her bank account. For this
attempt at collection, you must supply the
Small Claims Court with the person's work or
bank reference. You must pay a Constable's
fee for the constable of the court to collect the
amount due on the execution or attachment.
This fee is nomore than $10. (Note: the person
you are trying to sue must earn at least $85.a
week before any money may be taken from
his her salary. No execution may be filed
against persons who are on welfare aid. pen-
sion. compensation. etc.) If the constable is
able to get some money. it is putina special ac-
count for you, which you will receive only
when the full amount due has been collected.
A Court judgment is valid for 6 years, and an
execution remains in effect until all the money
is collected or the person changes his/her job
or bank account. Don’t let these collection
procedures distourage you, however, since
most people will immediately pay the amount
which the court has ordered. The person you
sue is most likely a member of the community
and would have more trouble than it is worth
if s/he tried to withhold payment.
18. What It | Lose?
As stated in the introduction, there is no
penalty if you lose your case. You simply do
not receive the money you were asking for.
‘There is no risk other than losing your original
$3.20 filing fee.
19. Should | Dress Up? Other Amenities.
Judges are fair. but they are human too.
Dress neatly but not necessarily fancy. The
judge is interested in your case. not in your at-
tire. But, do not give a bad impression by be-
ing sloppy. Use your common sense.
When your case is being discussed, be calm
and polite, but don’t be afraid to speakupand
give any information you feel is important to
your case. The main point is to be respectful of
the court.

Hiring a Lawyer for a Substantial Amount of
Legal Work:
Copies of the excellent Shopper's Guide to
Lawyers can be obtained by sending 26 cents
postage to the Pennsylvania Insurance
Department, Harrisburg, Pa. 17180. It
recommends that you question any lawyer
about his experience. see whether s/hecanex-
plain the caseto you in plain Englishinstead of
legalese, and find out (1) how s/he might ap-
proach the case if s/he were arguing against
you instead of for you. and (2) whether s/he
has any conflicts of interest that could affect
the case.
The booklet also recommends reaching a
clear understanding about what the fee will be
and having this put in writing. Ask for an
jemized bill for all services rendered and ex-
penses incurred on your behalf.
A.USS. Supreme Court decision ruled that
bar associations can't fix prices for various
kinds of legal work. In some respects this
makes it very difficult for any one to know in
advance just how much legal work will cost.
‘One Albany attorney has offered a rough price
schedule. although the final cost will depend
on nature of the difficulty of the work. Here's
the list: $45 per hour or $150 per diem for of-
fice work; $100 for an appearance and $150
per diem to represent you in a trial in a City
Court or a town justice court; $100 for an
appearance and $225 per diem to represent
you ia a trial in County Court; $75 for an
appearance and $150 per diem to represent
you in a trial in Family Court; $750 for a
divorce, separation or annulment; $250 to
adopt a child: $250 to change your name; and
$35 to write a simple will.
Of course the only time you actually know
went into your legal workisthe time you spent
with the lawyer. You have nothingto go on as
to how long was actually spent on your case
when you're not there.
Some suggestions: Use a lawyer that has
been recommended to you by some one you
trust. Barring that, you may have to go to
several offices to find the right person to de-
fend you. Remember. not all attorneys are
alike. In this case they are only a person you
wish to employ. so feel comfortable with the
‘one you hire. Question your lawyer as to how
much time will be needed and how much you
will be charged. Ideally. it would be best to get
‘a package price in advance so that you won't
have to worry about the cost of a delay. etc. If
you are charged per appearance and you get to
‘court only to find out that the case has been
postponed, ask your lawyer if you'll be charg-
ed the same as if the trial took place. Some

situations don't even warrant the presence of
an attorney. For example, if you are arraigned
it only entails entering a plea of not guilty
which is very easy to do. Just answer “NOT
GUILTY" when the judge asks how do you
plea. If you have a lawyer show up with you
for that it could cost a pretty penny.
Remember, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled
that everyone has the right to “defend
themselves.
Consumer Information
Caveat Emptor:
Get into the habit of saving sales slips. Most
stores will refuse returns if you cannot prove
that you purchased an item there.
If you have a problem with a local store,
resolve it there and then. Ask forthe manager.
If you can't get satisfaction at that level, go
higher. Persist until you receive satisfaction if
you feel the complaint is justified.
Take your time before signing anything.
Read the fine print. If youdon’t understandit,
don't sign it. Remember, oral promises are nor
binding, no matter what the salesman may tell
you. Get it in writing.
Door-to-door sales are regulated by NYS
law. The law provides for a three day cooling-
off period to permit the purchaser of a retail
installment sales contract to think over the
purchase, change his/her mind and cancel the
contract, if so chosen, by notifying the com-
pany in writing within three days of the initial
agreement. Send the notice of written
cancellation by certified mail
Any consumer that feels a bill is in error
may send written notice of his/her complaint
by registered or certified mail within 30 days
from the time the creditor mails thestatement.
‘The creditor must respond in writing within 30
days and take action within 90 days to correct
the error or dispute the consumer's claim.
Consumer Complaints
1) You can submit the details of consumer
complaints of fraud to the Attorney General's
Bureau of Consumer Fraud and Protection
(474-5481) in the Justice Bldg. Empire State
Piaza. and the Office will investigate to deter-
mine if fraud wasinvolved. Ifit was, the Office
will try to arrange a settlement between you
and the busines involved. If no settlement is
reached, you still can go to Small Claims
Court.

2) If you have a consumer complaint, or if
you want information on a specific business,
you can also contact the Consumer Relations
Bureau of the Albany Chamber of Commerce
(434-8820).
If you call them with a complaint, they will
send you forms to fill out. They then will send
a letter out to the business involved, explain-
ing the situation and asking for a response
lin two weeks. When they get an answer
from the business, they will contact you again.
Businesses often will be willing to make a
settlement in order to protect, their
reputations.
They keep extensive records of the com-
plaints they have received over the years and
how they were resolved. You can call them if
you want to know what kind of reputation
business has and they will tell you what’
their records.
Since they are affiliated with the National
Council of Better Business Bureaus, they often
can get you information on the reputation of
businesses in other areas.
3) The District Attorneys’ officesin/Albany
(445-7555) and Rensselaer (270-5250) counties
have consumer fraud protection bureaus.
‘Schenectady County has a consumer frawd
bureau (382-5061) in its Bureau of Weights
and Measures.
4) The New York State Consumer Protec-
tion Board, 99 Washington Ave.. Albany,
(474-8583) gathers consumer complaints and
recommends legislation. It does not, however,
act on individual complaint, but will refer you
to the proper agency.
5) The Consumer Law Handbook. publiah-
ed by the State Consumer Protection Board,
contains a wealth of very clear and understam-
dable information on consumer lawe im the
areas of credit, automobile repair, prodisct
safety, building standards, etc. For example,
did you know that:
“A creditor, upon request from en applicant
who has been denied credit, must furnishithet

‘Small Cialm Court
‘Small Claims Court is the place where any
individual can go to recover money. This
applies to dealings with landlords, businesses
and private citizens. Here are some examples
‘of problems that you might take to Small
Claims Court:
1. Your landlord won't return your security
deposit after you have moved even though
gave him/her the legal and proper 30 day
notice.
2 ‘The appliance you bought from a store
has a guarantee, but the store refuses to repair
it or to return your money.
3. You did work for someone who now
refuses to pay you for that work.
4. You paid someone to do work for you,
and s/he either didn't do it for you or did a
terrible job not worth what you paid.
5. A deaning store damaged your dress but
won't pay for the damages.
6. You paid for a repair on a car or washing
machine or hair dryer, or some other
appliance, and the “thing” still doesn't work.
‘These are just some sample cases. If you
have a problem somewhat like one of these,
you can use Small Claims Court.
When Do | Bring A Problem To Small
Cisims Court?
If you can’t solve the problems or reach an
agreement with the party after several
attempts, you should go to Small Claims
‘Court and file a suit against this party.
How Do! File A Smaii Ciaims Court Case?
If youlivein the city of Albany and want to
‘use the Small Claims Court, goto the Albany
City Court Clerk's Office on the second floor
of Gty Hall. City Hall is the big brown
building directly in front of the State Capital
Buildings. You may not file a aim through
the mail. Bring $3.20 in cash.

Operate?
For the fee of $3.20 you can file a claim
against someone and a hearing dateis set. This
fee might be returned to you if you win the

Both you and the person you are suing will
come to court on the date set.
‘The judge will listen to both your story and
tothe other party's story and then makea deci-
sion. If you win, the other person must pay
you. If you lose, there is no penalty. You do
not have to pay for the court time or anything
else except the $3.20 filing fee.
If you feel that you might need Small
Claims Court help, read the following more
detailed section. It outlines some of the
problems to avoid, and strategies to present a
winning case.
1. Who Can Sue In Small Cisims Court?
Only individuals over the age of 18 may use
the Small Claims Court. Corporations,
partnerships, insurers or their assignees can
‘not sue, but you can sue them. Youdon't have
to be rich or have a college education.
Everyone has a fair chance.
2 Who May You Sue In Small Cisims
Court?
You may sue anyone who lives, works, or
has an office in Albany County, and any
coporation with an address in the County.
(You must sue. person or firminthecountyin
which that person or firm resides.) But, when
suing, make sure you give the proper name of
the person or corporation—no nicknames.
Sometimes a business doesn't use its real
name. § may be tricky to get the proper name
of a corporation but it is usually possible.
‘Most businesses have business certificates
with their legal namein a conspicuous place. If
not, call the Better Business Division of the
Albany County Chamber of Commerce, or
check with the County Clerk’s Office. Also,
make sure you sue the proper party. If you
should be suing a business, do not sue an in-
dividual employed with that business. Getting
the proper name for your claim is important
and usually not difficult.
3. What If You Are Sued?
If you receive a summons (and it may be
mailed to you) to goto Small Claims Court, it
means that you are being sued. Someone says
that you owe them money. Do not ignore it
because if you do, you will automatically lose.
You will be forced to pay the amount it says
you owe.

you will have to goto Small Claims Court at
the time that is written on thesummons. If you
cannot go at the time stated and you have a
special reason. call the person bringing the
claim and try to arrange a more convenient
time. S/He will then call the Clerk of the
Court and ask to make the change in time. If
this is not successful, call the Clerk and ex-
plain your problem and he will request that the
court consider a possible change of the date.
Adjournment is at Plaintiff's option.
‘Normally a jury is not used in Smal Claims
Court. However, because you arebeingsued,
you are entitled to a jury trial if you want one.
You must notify the clerk of the Court before
the date of the trial, in writing You will have
to paya$12.50 fee and post $50.00. The $50.00
will be returned to you after the trial whether
you win or lose. It is required to show the
‘Court that your request for ajury is made after
serious thought and in good faith.
4. How Much Can You Sue For?
‘You may sue to recover money and not ob-
jects. You can sue for up to $1000 in Small
‘Claims Court. However, if you feel that you
have a claim of more than $1000, but are will-
ing to settle for less to save expenses in going
to Civil Court, you may still sue in Small
Claims Cout, but $1000 is the maximum you
can recover. One thing to keep in mind is to
‘sue for the proper amount. Make sure youfile
for an accurate and fair amount. You cannot
raise the amount you feel you should get
because of inconvenience or nusiance youmay
have suffered. If property is involved, allow
for depreciation value. If you bought asweater
for $10 three years ago, the judge won't reward
you the full $10 now. He considers how much
the item is presently worth—the depreciated
value, An accurate claim has a much better
chance than one which the judge views as an
overestimate.
‘S.More Filing Information
‘The Small Claims Court Clerk's Office is on
the second floor of City Hall. When you in-
tend to file a claim, come into this office and
speak to one of the clerks. You will probably
be directed to Donald Poiter, the Clerk of the
Albany City Court (472-5173). He must fill

‘out certain forms, so be prepared to answer his
quistions. You will be asked your name, your
address, the name and address of the person
you are suing, the amount you are suing for,
and the reason you are filing this claim. Be
Prepared to give a short and clear answer to
this last question. The clerk doesn't want to
hear your whole story. The clerk will also ex-
plain court procedures. Your case will be given
a hearing date some time three or four weeks
later. Be sure to remember this date. If you
cannot appear in person during office hours,
you may send another person to file your
claim for you, but s/he must be a person who
knows the facts of his/her own knowledge and
is willing to swear to them.
6. Where Is The Smatt Ciaims Court?
Small Claims Court meets in the Cour-
troom on the second floor of City Hall, next
door to the Clerk's Office where you file your
claim.
7.How Are The People Notified Of The
Hearing Date?
At the time you come to the Small Claims
Clerk's Office and file your claim, you will be
notified of your hearing date. Small Claims
Court meets every Wednesday at 9:30 a.m.
and on the first and third Monday evenings at
7:00 p.m. The court will send a summons to
the other party (the defendent) by registered
mail. If the summons is delivered, then s/he
must show up at the time of the hearing, things
are going smoothly. If the summons is return-
ed by the Post Office to the Small Claims
Court for reasons of “moved-left no address,”
“unknown at this address,” “nosuch address.”
you will be notified. You will then be responsi-
ble for seeing that the summons is personally
delivered to (“served on”) the defendent.
This is no big deal. Simply return to The
‘Small Claims Court Clerk, and he will explain
the procedures involved. For a $7.50 fee the
City Court Constable will serve the summon<
for you.

Sometimes the person you aré suing may
claim that you owe him/her money. This is
called a counterclaim. You may be sent a
notice of the counterclaim, or the other. ‘person

9. How To Settle A Claim
‘Sometimes the filing of a Small Claims suit}
makes both parties more ready tocompromise|
and settle the claim outside of court. If a|
satisfactory agreement is reached and you
want to make sure that the other party won't
change his/her mind, write the agreement]
down and both of you sign it. To make the|
settlement official, call the Clerk of the Court
and tell him that you would like to have the|
agreement “entered.”He will tell you a date on|
which to bring the statement to court. Onceit
is entered you will always be ableto haveiten-
forced by the court, just as if a judge decided)
the case for you. If the agreement is not
entered, you have no guarantee that it will be
followed.
10. 11 Sue In Small Ciaims Court Do |
Need A Lawyer?
No. The main idea of Small Claims Courtis,
to settle problems without lawyers.
11. What I! The Person! Am Suing Brings|
A Lawyer?
Lawyers do not usually appear, but
sometimes a person or business which is being|
sued will bring a lawyer. This does not mean’
that you need a lawyer, however. The main
thing which lawyers doin Small Claims Court
is to keep their clients calm and to make sure
their client's answers are short and simple. Ifa
lawyer does come to help the other party,
don’t be upset. S/he can ask you questions.
Answer his/her questions calmly. S/he is just
trying to get at the main points of dispute and
the judge won't let him/her push you around.
Don't be afraid to ask questions of your oppo
nent to bring out a point. Since the lawyer is
helpful in identifying the important points of
the case, you might want to speak to a lawyer
before going to court. (Call the S.A. Funded
law firm of Rosenbloom & Levanthal 463-
1107) Sometimes you may learnthat evenif all
of your story is correct, you still are not en-
titled to recovery for lack of legal grounds to
base your case on.
Lawyers are not necessary or especially im-
portant in Small Claims Court. You will do

bad for business
To the Editor:
By becoming a student at this university 1
had expected to be able to freely decide what
todo with my life later on. Yet, my choices on
which to base this decision on are seeming to
become increasingly limited.
Being a junior majoring in English, | have
almost completed my major's requirements.
Next year being practically free, | had hoped
to concentrate in business to maybe help mein
getting a job. Unfortunately, because of the
new business school policy, I will not be able
to study what I really want to study. | will have
to waste a year of my education.
But, because ! will be a senior, | thought, of
course, there would still be a way for me to
take courses, since the policy hasjust gone into
effect. In my accounting class last Thursday
which luckily wasn’t closed out, the Associate
Dean of Business, Donald Bourque, sub-
stituted forthe regular professor. At the begin-
ning of class he reminded the students that
Saturday, January 31, is the deadline for
applying to the school. He then asked for
questions. | figured what a great opportunity
this was, I could ask the dean about my plans.
The opportunity did not turn out to be so
great,
1 explained my situation, that J didn’t think
1 wanted a double major in business but | was
still very interested in taking courses. Dean
Bourque told me J could only take lower level
courses, Sadly enough for me, | already had
taken or was in the process of taking these
courses. This is because, in the past, upper
level courses such as marketing weren't even
offered to freshmen and sophomores. So, |
asked Dean Bourque if there wasn't any possi-
ble way for me to take any courses at all inthe
business department, He said, yes indeed, it
looked to be impossible. I then asked him if
this weren't incredible, he was telling me |
couldn't even be given a chance to take
courses, He answered me yes, it is incredible
And then the Associate Dean of Business
laughed.
Being a little upset about this, since it did
kind of destroy my future, 1 went to my
business majoring friends. | found out this
type of behavior from Dean Bourque is not
that unusual. In one computer science course
last semester, when other studemts were trying
frantically to ask him questions about their
future in business, Dean Bourque (old them,
“That's the way life is.” And that was that.
Perhaps the School of Business does have to
limit its enrollment. But it should nat penalize
Present juniors and seniors who cannot afford
to change their major. who don't want to take
just any slectives to graduate, but who want to
learn about another specific field. Afterall, we
do supposedly come to college to receive a
broad education
And most certainly, a dean of the business
school should be willing to discuss with
students their problems when he offers them
the time. He should not laugh and shun them
off as poor, confused kids who don’t yet know
about life.

the final hours
To the Editor:
I hope it’s not too late to voice a complaint
about the SUNYA Library's hours during
Final's week.
Last semester our library changed its policy
and did not stay open tate during finals week.
Instead, regular every-day-of-the-year hours
were observed, and students were told to J
Teport toalecture centerif they wanted tocon-
tinue studying. Understandably, most
students chose rather to go home than to
‘attempt working in a large room where they
would be distracted by other students’ study
habits (gum-popping, pen clicking, talking,
curses of frustration, etc.) Consequently, the
lecture center set aside for late night studying
‘was not used by very many students, afact I'm
sure some library administrators will construe
to mean that students don't want or need late
library hours during peak studying periods.
Nothing could be further from the truth,
‘Thereis a reason why people choose totreck
all the way to the library to do schoolwork.
‘The library offers both study booths, where
one can work undistracted, and lounges where
one can take study breaks and perhaps find a
friend who can explain a perplexing problem.
A lecture center offers neither, it only offe
tables, seats, and distractions. In a school
with academic presstires such ds ours, where
final exams are of paramount importance in
grade determination, students deserve better
I'm sure budget cutbacks will be cited asthe
reason for the library's insufficient finals week
hours, but | don’t buy it. The library is never
used ay much as it is during finals week. Many
students only use the library during finals
time. To apply a cutback at a time where a
facility is most needed and most used is the
result of either poor priority setting, or of in
competence.
What sort of priorities does our library
have? Do they have any idea of what the
students on this campus want? At atime when
other colleges have their libraries opentwenty-
four hours and are serving coffee and donuts
to studying students, ours is kickingthem out,
suggesting they relocate to a large lecture
center. Could somebody please explain why’?

A free press is the heart of a democracy
Without it, responsible contact between the
decision makers and those affected by their
decisions is lost and the handfull of govern-
ment rulers may do as they please. This
Palestinian act is not merely an attack against
free press, but against democracy in Lebanon
itself,
Recently much pressure has been leveled at
Jews throughout the world to start thinking
about readmitting the Palestinian refugees
into Israel in order to form a “{ree and secular
democratic Palestine.” The Palestinian cot
tribution to Lebanon's democracy displays a
lear example of what the PLO leadership
considers a “free and secular democratic
Palestine”. Not only do they attack one of the
bullwarks of freedom, but they attack a
religious group.
Ifimperialismis the intervention intothe af-
fairs of someone else's land, my limited
vocabulary contains no other word to term
such Palestinian actions. Arab terrorism aim-
ed at Israel in order to “liberate” her for the
oppressed Palestinian refugees is comprehen
dable though intolerable; but the extension of
their struggle to the Christian community in
anon remains to.me unfathomable.
‘The Hebrew language contains no specific,
one word term for jihad (religious war) and
most Israelis do not consider their struggle
against the Arabs as a religious war but as ane
of survival. The Arab nations however have
used religious fervor to generate support for
their cause. What I find shocking about
Lebanon is that the predominantly Christian
western world has not expressed the slightest
horror of a religious war directed against their
co-religionists aside from the usual dis-
pleasure of “war in general”

“Christians throughout the world unite and

My desire as a Jew to settle in Israe) has

Therapeutic Distrust
Trust ws
by Chris Aidun
These two words reveal the nature of our lives and the world in which we live. The statement
“trust us” comes from all levels of authority
business, education, and government, Though you
may never hear these actual words, their message should not be new to you.
The mess
comes from America’s giant corporations every time attempts are made at
regulation. What's good for General Motors is goad for America. The auto industry has fought
all safety: proposals from seatbelts to bumpers which bump instead of crumble (bumpers are now
able to withstand a “collision” at five mph). The industry has consistently oppased any auto
pollution standards and has shown reluct
ace in implementing those adopted. Yet, they 1
hidden from scrutiny, very protective of their right to decide what's best for our lives. The “trust

Aleksandr Solzhenists yn
In the summer of 1975, Aleksandr
Solzhenitsyn came to America to speak
‘realistically of our relationship with the Soviet
Union. He clearly points out that Russia's
backbone. its agriculture, is weak. Solzhenit-
syn calls for the United States to stop bailing
Russia out of its economic problems by
trading with it and giving it loans.
Let's get to the very root ot the problem.
The reason why we even trade with the
Russians is for the sake of detente. Detente
means relaxation of strained relations or ten-
sion, as in this case between (wo nations,
Noting the above gutoc, even though we
attempt to relax our tensions and to peacefully

Solzhenitsyn asserts that an ideological war is
composed of a focus of hatred, a continued
Fepetition of the oath to destroy the western
world,
The Russians gladly accept our assistance.
Nevertheless, Solzhenitsyn states that in their
schools they teach and in their newspapers
they write: “Look at the Western world,

for all, the triumph of communism." We
should let the Soviet socialist economy prove
its superiority to the world, We should stop all
trade with the Russians immediately, and en-
couriage our allies to stop helpingthemas well
Why should we support the Soviet policestate
with our grain and other exports?
If we no longer assist Russia with our
agricultural exports, they would have to turn
most of their energy and attention totheir far-
ming systems. Consequently, if they have to
struggle just to feed the people, they will have
Jess time to work on their industries, space
programs and most important, military
programs, With this problem, the Russian
system would be forced to relax.
The Cold War (a war of hatred) is still going
‘on, but only on the communist side. Even
though the Russians are doing this, the United
es definitely should not return to Cold
The only thing we should do is to stop
helping the Soviet economy,
Solzhenitsyn suggests that relations
between the Soviet Union and the United
States should be such that there would be no
deceit in the question of armaments, that there
would be no concentration camps, no psy-
chiatric wards for healthy people, Also he
adds that relations should be such that there
would be an end fo the incessant ideological
warfare waged against us.
Therefore, since we clearly understand
Russia's point of view, we should stop all aid
to them until they act more sensibly and
humanly.

| Effects of the Phantom Ph.D.
Old sores never. heal, we just forget that they hurt,
The controversy surrounding the Michael Kaufman tenure case painfully resurrects
the ghosts of the 1973 Carolyn Waterman case, and that of former English teacher Curt
Smith. Again we have administration tactics that can only generously be described as
questionable. At worst, the intrusion of the Academic Affairs Vice-President into a
purely faculty level tenure review (see page one) can be called a gross restriction of due
process.
Vice-President Philip Sirotkin has called his actions “extraordinary.” We couldn't
‘agree more. But he attempts to excuse them by blaming these “extraordinary times.”
The budgetary mess in which we find ourselves cannot be made the whipping boy for
repressive and educationally unsound practices by the administration in pursuit of its
phantom dream—the English Ph.D.
If a university is to develop a solid base of faculty, the tested, though ambiguous
procedures of tenure need to be followed, Until a fairer one is developed the
convoluted one we have must do. Sirotkin, and byextension, President Emmett Fields’
techniques are a return to jungle law.
It is apparently their intent to commit a slaughter of untenured English faculty to
regain the Ph.D., a slaughter disregarding ability and quality.
The “most exceptional standards” which Fields’ consultants would like to apply to
English tenure cases don't exist and they never have. They are a ruse to justify mindless
decimation and they must not work, The value of professors like Kaufman means more
to a viable university than the tragic behavior of the administration would seem to
indicate.
Comfortable Chaos
A child awoke, and began the daily routine common to all schooldays, communities
and seasons, The shades were closed, and the child thought little while choosing clothes
and brushing teeth. At some point, however, mother opened the shades: snow! Then
she announced: no school today.
Sometimes the child returned to bed, but more often the gust of unexpected joy
prevented that, Excitement was in watching the high winds, snow or empty streets
through a clouded window. Home was more than home; it was warmth and security.
Maybe father did not attempt to go to work, or returned from such aneffort in failure,
The power of the snow. . « :
As if an extra day had been granted, there was an urge to use it. Not only wasit fun,
but an element of chaos was present. For the child, chaos is exciting more than it
scary.
Mother made hot chocolate, and by the time the sun went down the child was
exhausted, When sleep came, only the hope for more snow remained,
Older children, or adults as they prefer to be called, regard the storm more
objectively. It’s dangerous, cars become immovable, skid or freeze. Plans are cancelled
and the day is one of inconvenience. There isn't any thought about release from the
routine,
When the college is closed, however, there is a release from the routine, The
childhood mood returns. The day will be used for pleasure: cuddling up for some,
drawing pictures in the smoke of a causal indulgence for others.
Of course, there will be those who will see the release as an extra day of studying, or
time to fix the apartment. But it’s still possible to look out the window, forgetting the
usual urges of discipline or reflex of annoyance. The years haven't removed that. mood;
they've only buried it under seasons of snow.

The Crime
is Rape
bby Cindy Kline
The typical rape scene as presented by the
‘media and written about in books portrays the
victim as a young beautiful woman dressed in
provocative clothing walking alone ona dark
abandoned street. The rapist, usually labeled
‘sickie’, sex-starved, pervert, or maniac, is
Lurking in the bushes, conveniently waiting for
his next victim. These scenes, although effec-
tively combining the two real elements,
violence and sex, are mythical creations. A
more realistic way rapes happen is presented
in the book Against rape by Andrea Medeo
and Kathleen Thompson,
The woman is 39, separated from her hus-
band, the mother of five children. Anattacker
breaks into her house in the middle of the
night, He turns out to be a friend’s husband,
the father of severat children.
The woman who was raped was not dressed
in provocative king for it as most
people would believe, Children as youngas six
months and women as old as 80 have i
raped or molested. No womanis safe fromthe
threat of rape.
Rape is not limited to dark streets and bad
ighborhoods. More rapes occur inside than

‘ma of social behavior. The ordinary rapist

ual desire, but all the hatred, contempt, and
oppression of women in thissocietyin one act.
“Mf, to ordinary men a womanis not a human
being buts a piece of ass, a box, alay, acuint, a
hippie chick or a whore, then the ordinary
man is a potential rapist.” (Against Rape)
Women must realize the constant threat of
physical violence is with them no matter where
they go. They must learn the rapist can be the
landlord, the next door neighbor, a friend's
fasher or brother, a date, the boss or a
professor. 759% of all rapes arecommitted by a
man known to the victim. 719 of all rapes are
planned and » 25-33% are committed by
married men; they are not results of uncon-
trollable sex drives.
Rape is a crime of violence, a crime against
women. We must reduice it from the dark evil
prospect we read about in novels so women
‘can deal with it seriously. We must change our
conception of rape to include “any sexual in-
timacy forced on one person by another.”
When a woman's date makes constant sexual

Scott Price and Rich Margison (1969) shared the same favorite memory:
the NCAA Consolation victory against Lemoyne.
“We were down 20 polite at halftime,” Price sald, “and we were still
‘smarting from that 40 point loss to Wagner the night before. Anyway, we
‘went into that lockerroom and Doe didn't say a word; you could see the hurt
in his eyes, We all knew one thing: we couldn't let Doc down. And we didn't,
when good old Rich hit that fou! line shot at the buzzer.’
“I never met a guy with more enthusiasm than Doc,” Price continued, “and
I just don't know how he keeps winning with what he has.”
Ever hear of the Three Stooges? No, not the ones who dominated
afternoon television for many years, but the Albany State version in 1966:
‘Tom Doody, Marty O'Donnell, and Tim Jursak,
“Alot of people thought we were a bunch of real clowns, and that we were
just out on Doc’s bench because we had no place else to go," said Duty. “In
fact, we sat the whole first half of the season, until, one day in February, Doc
ran into this little problem at Siena: his three best starters fouled out. What a
look on his face when he realized we had to go into the game, what with us
Josing by 13 points with just two minutes remaining. Everyone thought he
‘was conceding defeat, including us. So what happens, Jursak over here scores
ten points, and we cach throw in a couple more, and Albany State beats “St.
Rose”. What a burn, right in front of their home crowd in Gibbons Hall.”
Where have you gone John Quatrocchi? The academy award winning
offensive foul draw-er is the varsity basketball coach at Whitesboro High
and this class of 1973 graduate lit up like a 500 watt bulb as he told his
favorite: the 197) Capital District victory over Siena.
“They came into that one 6-0, We were just 3-2. and they were supposed to
kill us," said Quattrocchi, “When weleft thecourt at halftime, trailing by four
points, they were chanting “beat Albany High,” After the game we went
down tothelockerroom tocelebrate and used a few good cheers of our own.”
Bob Rossi, Quatrocchi's other guard, works for General Electric these
days, but remembers well the 1972-3 season.
“Til never forget that Brockport game," said Rossi, whose cight
consecutive first half baskets kept the Danes alive. They were supposed to
blow us out, They had Gilliam, the man who was averaging 30 points a game.
‘The fans were berserk fromthe second we took the court, and we beat them."”
And for Rich Reni, the Danes’ “ancient” scorekeeper, the memories are
many: “Lemoyne, the win at Fredonia in overtime when Byron Miller went
wild in the second half to bring us back, last years’ win against Brockport, but
most of all, the 1974 Siena game and the way we ‘checked that score
Yet one more old-timer has yet to be heard from: the Doc himself.
“My most memorable game and favorite win, Siena in 1966, the most
important win to me personally, Brockport last year; but, and this will
surprise you, the most important game we ever played was way back in my
first year when we Went upto Plattsburgh. They were 18-0at the time, and we
did everything but win, but it gave all of us the confidence to know what the
future of Albany State basketball looked like.”

Trevett: Watching And Waiting
by Michael Smith
Last Tuesday night at University
Gym Gary Trevett began an ordeal
athletes in all sports fear more than
anything else.
Albany State's allstime assist
leader was forced to watch his team
lose to Union College from the
sidelines, his broken right wrist
preventing him from taking his
familiar place on the court as the
Danes’ playmaking guard.
It was a very helpless feeling for
ime," Trevett said. “The Union game
was especially frustrating because
Union College is in my home town
and 1 know all their players per-
sonally. 1 wanted to prove we
(Albany) had a better team than Un-
ion, especially after they destroyed
uy in the Capital District Tourna-
ment this year.”
But the practical side is that
Trevett must realize sitting out the
Union game is just the beginning of
an adjustment he has to make, It
won't be easy
What Trevett and so many other
Athletes in his position must adjust to
is no longer feeling a part of a team
you've practiced with, day in and day
out, for months. All the hard work,
hopes and preparations for this
season are now just a memory for
Trevett.
He will miss not only the game
competition and the practices, he
will develop what athletesin his posi-
tion can attest to as an indescribable
feeling of being an outsider looking
in at bis teammates, :
“During time-outs | really missed
talking over strategy with Doc
[Coach Sauers) and the players,
Trevett said, “It's hard for me to
accept that I'm no longer considered
important as a player.”

State College, a balding giant who still stands out in a crowd,
“Til never forget the old gym in Page Hall,” said Holway after Saturday's
Alumni Contest, “We were just about unbeatable in there, We once won 34
games ina row, and when we finally lost, it was in double overtime to New

But it was Coach Doc Sauers who re-kindles another memory for
Holway~the 1957 NAIA Eastern Championship game against Fairleigh
Dickinson,
“The night before 1 played terribly, but the team was great and we won,”
Holway suid with an almost painful look, “And then we were in the regional

Albany's first “big man” was six foot, six inch Don Cohen, now aprofessor

Hewiitts Landing in the Township of Whitehall is miles from Page Hall,

Jack Minon (1957).
“L guess | can safely say I'm the only one here who played before Doccame

“It’s funny,” he continued, “t remember my first meeting with Doc and he
still looks the same to me, Did he tell you we won our first eight games that

court unmolested. The strategy
worked to perfection and at the

the score at 16. Keane, as poetic

VP Sirotkin Is Westward Bound
by David Winselberg
Vice President for Academic Af-
fairs Phillip L, Sirotkin will leave his
SUNYA post June | to head the
Western Interstate Commission for
Higher Education (WICHE) in
Colorado,
In his five years here, Sirotkin has
been responsible for making difficult
decisions on tenure and budget
allocations, often drawing sharp
criticism from faculty members,
‘As Executive Director of WICHE,
Sirotkin will ‘be responsible for all
programs, services, finances and per-
sonnel. According to WICHE’s
Public Information Director Gerry
Volgenau, Sirotkin will “make vir-
tually all the program decisions for
the organization.” Sirotkin's first ad-
ministrative job was with WICHE
between 1957 and 1960 as Associate
Director for Regional Programs.
Since the 1973 resignation of 1.
Moyer Hunsberger as Dean of Arts
and Sciences, Sirotkin has worked
along with division heads here at
SUNYA in making academic policy
decisions. Last year Sirotkin was a
key figure in the search for a new

Internal Politics Cause Crisis At SASU
By Dan Gaines
Possibly as the climax of aninter-
nal crisis, SASU President Bob
Kirkpatrick has been told that he
may be impeached and removed at a
Binghamton conference this
weekend of the Student Association
of the State University.
Why?
One theory is that he could
become the victim of a power play
led by SASU Vice President Betty
Pohonka and others. By spreading
false rumors and exposing minor
corruption that they themselves are
guilty of, the Pohonka group has
plotted since October to take over
SASU, says this theory, Pohonka
has been a do-nothing Vice Presi-
dent, it goes on, while all the real
work of SASU has been done by the
present staff, Kirkpatrick and Vice
President Stu Haimowitz. This is
Kirkpatrick's theory.
The other theory is Pohonka’s:
Her group is trying to save SASU,
which has recently lost nine member
schools, from the incompetence and
destructive policies of Kirkpatrick
and Haimowitz,
Pohonka’s groups has involved
SUNY Central and the non-SASU
schools of SUNY Central's student
arm, the Student Assembly: SASUis
@ private corporation that lobbys.
Kirkpatrick is also President of the
Assembly; indeed, the two
organizations are parallel.
Pohonka’s people instigated two
studies. The results:
— Yesterday, SUNY Vice
Chancellor Clifton Thorne found a
solution to a problem of alleged cor-
ruption by SASU in using the Stu-
dent Assembly to xerox and to ob-
tain supplies at SUNY Central's
Twin Towers offices.
— Tomorrow, a report will be
given at Binghamton by a Student
Assembly investigative committee,
which was set up tolook into thecor-
ruption and to find out why the
Assembly had already spent 2 of its
budget by December.
Tapes of the investigative com-
mittee’s study were burned by
SUNYA SA President Andy
Bauman, a committee member.
Bauman says he destroyed the tapes
to protect the confidentiality of the
hhearingi.” There had’ been false
tumors spread by some Pohonka
group people that the Attorney
General andthe Albany County Dis-
trict Attorney had been called in by
Thorne, and Bauman was under the
impression acourt order might come
at any time for the tapes,
An informed source said that the
committee will suggest that the Stue
dent Assembly have a tresurer and
that there be tighter reimbursement
procedures for trips and meals. The
source said that the committee will
come out against Kirkpatrick and
Haimowitz, in some way expressing
a lack of confidence in them.
But Bauman said he “sensed

Wellington Hotel Management Offers A
Settlement To Recent Robbery Victims
by Ed Moser
In a meeting Tuesday night at the
Wellington hotel, Dorm Director
Fred Litt told students that the
hotel's General Manager, Reuben
Gersowitz, would pay back a “more
than fair percentage” of the value of
items stolen from their rooms during
the winter recess.
“I met with Mr. Gersowitz yester-
day,” said Litt, “He says money has
arrived {to pay for damages] .... it
comes to a percentage, which he did
not care to tell me; he said it was
more than fair. | would think much
more thun 50 percent.”
Litt said Gersowitz would like to
meet privately with each person
robbed in order to work out a settle~
ment. On Tuesday morning Ger-
sowitz sent notices to students ask-
ingfor their “school schedule, sothat
a convenient personal meeting time
can be arranged.”
‘Student reaction to Lit’s talk was
mixed. RA Kevin Kovacs said the
students should “all stick together,
and if dissatisfied with 60 percent,” 8
figure often mentioned asa possibi
ty during the meeting, should use
legal action to get fuller payment.
Another of those robbed said the
Wellington management “wants us
to come in alone and play on
people's emotions, so that we'll take
cut [from the full value of goods
stolen)”
‘Watchful Waiting
Others preferred to wait and see.
“Pd have to see what Gersowitz is
settling for,” one student said,
Litt was pleased with the Ger-
sowitz proposal, The idorm direc--
tor, who describes himself as “in the
middle” between the Wellington
students and managemnet, said of
the affair, “It's over, hopefully, I'm
hoping the settlement is enough to
satisfy everyone.” Litt termed the
management's response as more
than prompt: “Gersowitz promised a
settlement in two weeks. In the real
world, you'd be waiting months,"
Kovacs was unhappy with Litt,
whom he feels is reluctant to an-
tagonize the management in fear of
endangering his position of Dorm
Director. “He's been looking for a
raise for along time," said Kovacs of
Lit.
Yet Litt feels that to hassle the
management would only cause trou-
ble: “The Wellington is a necessity
with a 105-110 percent enrollment. If
we make a big stink, possibly this
place won't be here next semester.”
Future Precautions

and tenure, :
Another outspoken faculty
member, Bernard K. Johnpoll, of
Political Science, had this comment
on Sirotkin's resignation: “If I can't
say something nice about somebody,
personally I won't say it.”
Humanities Dean Ruth A,
Schmidt feels Sirotkin has worked
well with the academic deans, She
said, “I don't know of anyone more
hard-working and dedicated to the
university."
David Coyne, Chairperson of
Central Counci! and frequent stu-
