State University of New York at Albany

by Mike Plekarski

‘Alter being humiliated in the first
game of the season-opening double
header to ‘New Paltz, 21-5, the
‘Albany Great Dane varsity baseball
team was goingto be quite pleasedto
come away with a split,

But three tast-inning runs by the
host Hawks in the nighteap, sent the
Danes away with a sourtasteintheir
mouths ane 9-8 second-game loss.

‘The double dip left Albany with a
45 SUNYAC record—a continua-
tion of their 4-3 fall mark.

Oddly enough, the day began
quite well for the Danes. With one
out in the first inning of the opener,
second baseman Jeff Silverman
reached on an error. On the very
next pitch, third baseman Jim
Willoughby blasted a shot to center-
field that—aided by the win
carried up and over the fence for a
two-run homer. And that came off
one of the best pitchers around: New
Paitz's Tom Whitaker.

When Albany starter John
Dollard retired the side without inci-
dent in the bottom of the frame, it
seemed like it might be an interesting
afternoon for the visitors, It was, but
certainly not froma victorious point
of view!

Inthe last of the second inning, the

toof fell in on Dollard. A walk,
error, single, and triple later, and
New Paltz was out infront, But there
‘was more to come. Another error,
double, single, and back-to-back
homers by Bob Marz and Mike
Roach gave the hosts acommanding
&-2 lead after only two frames.

Albany managed to get one back
in the third when junior John Craig
looped a run-scoring single to center.
But that was as close as they were
able to come, Forinthe Hawk's half,
the hosts came up with another big
inning by tallying eight more runs—
this time off reliever Pete Bulger—to
claim an insurmountable 16-3 ad-
vantage. The big blow here was
Larry Panella’s grand slam homer.

Silverman's fourth-inning home
run and Howie Markowitz's rbi
single in the seventh were of no avail
as New Paltz just kept pounding
away.

A five-run sixth closed out the
Hawk's scoring with the runs (his
time coming off lefty Roger Plantier.
But the story of this game was not
the Hawk's offense, but the Danes’
defense. Before the game was over,
Albany had amassed the amazing
total of nine errors as compared to
New Paltz’s two.

In the second game, Albany again

Rascals Win Lg. III Hoop

by Joe Cafiera

Led by “Doctor” Jay Wasser-
man’s 24 points and the outstanding
defensive and bourd play of Jeff
Black and John Willams the Little
Rascals upset the heavi
Crusaders for the League {11 hoop

day night, 61-43.

Black and Willams held AMIA's
leading scorer, Carmelo Verdejo (28
ps. game) to 23 points, Employing
4 2-1-2 zone defense the Rascals
forced Verdejo to throw up
numerous low percentage shots

Verdejo constantly caught the long
arms of Black staring him in the face
and threw up bad shots, When the
ball came down either Black or

Plantier (starting in left) crashed
tremendous homer far over the left
field fence.

The 1-0 lead held until the home

third when Ron Juliano’s run
scoring single knotted the score,
Then came the controversial play of
the game, With Roach on second
and Juliano on first with one out,
Whitaker blasted a long drive to
deep centerfield. Albany's Paul
Nelson went straight back, then dove
head-first and caught the ball as he
went splashing into the mud on the
warning track,
Roach, claimed third baseman
Craig was “coming at me just after
Nellie held up the ball to show that
fhe had caught it. We appealed se-
cond but the umpire obviously didn't
see it.” (Roach tagged up and scored
the go-ahead run after the catch).

Mark Stryker’s two-run homer
and Paul DiLello's balk accounted
for three more New Paltz runs in the
fourth, before Albany beganits com-
back,

A single by shortstop Bob Cooke
to open the fifth started it. A Nelson
walk and Craig rbi single, followed
by Jeff Breglio’s sacrifice fly made it
4 5-3ballgame. Even Whitaker's solo
homer in the bottom of the frame,
hardly mattered.

In the sixth, Albany's Mike
Gamage led off the inning with a
base on balls. A single by Silverman

and a double by Plantier cut the gap

Women’s Track Team

Braving heavy winds, the Albany
State Women’s Varsity Track and

93 points Saturday,
picking up their first two wins of the
season against Hunter (25 pts.) and
Russell Sage (9 pts.) colleges.
Listing more than 30 members,
the largest roster in years, Albany
was able to fill each event, according
to coach Barbara Palm, to help
secure their victory. Boththe Hunter

Carey Taken To Court For
Paying Axed Employees

by Ed Moser

NYPIRG is taking Governor
Hugh Curey to court,

The New York Public Interest
Research Group, Inc, has obtained a
show of cause order from the
Supreme Court requiring Carey and
State Comptroller Arthur Levitt to
justify payment of salaries to state
employees whose positions were
abolished by the legislature in the
recently enacted 1976-77 budget.

The legislature has reduced cer-
tain appropriations requested by the
governor, thereby abolish
number of state positions.

“It lines up as a constitutional bat-
le between the governor and the
legislature," remarked Donald Ross,

“The financial sitaation does
not allow this university to do all
(hat a university is capable of do-
ing. The key question is what are
the limited number of things we
can do better than others?”

So President Emmett Fields

began his discussion of the “mi
sion” in an interview with the
Albany Student Press. It is this
mission — Fields said purpose or

focus would be just as applicable

that many say pervades the
tenure process and all policy
related decisions at this univer
ty.

“One way to determine what
we cun do best is 10 look at the ex
ternal environment,” said Fields.
“Albany, the state capital, is very
conspicuous."

Fields: “We Had To Get The Money Out”

Fields cited the dearth of state
and local research presently being
done at universities as well as our
location at a sophisticated
government laboratory as prime
reasons for his emphasis on
public policy analysis.

He add, “We SUNYA, are
young enough not to have es-
tablished vested interests." Fields
quotes faculty members who
agree, saying that our “image or
identy in the public mind has not
yet congealed."

The administration has been
criticized for not defining public
policy and for intolerance to
those areas which inherently have
little to do with it,

“I'm not saying that everything
in this university should .
press forward the analytical
debate about public policy,”
Fields said. “If we all did that, we
would be something tess than &

university."

Fields went on to delineate the
qualities of what we should take
up. Synopsising, they are: first,
problems that are complex andin
need of university-level analysis

secondly, they must be ob-
durate and long-lasting — third-

ly, the area must be of importance
to the state’

welfare, — and,
the result must be
generalizable outputs that arethe

hhas asked if nursing is not public-
oriented, what is

“There is some confusion here,
There is a difference between
public service and public policy

nursing school has not done any

that he didn't know of any nur-

will begin to develop this summer
when the mission study report
comes out.”

As to what he, as President, is
doing to provide the impetus for
the change, Fields said, “First is
the allocation of faculty lines to
those areas, including the
Graduate School of Public Af-
fairs, the School of Criminal
Justice, the School of Social
Welfare, and the School of
Business, which can fly this

ditures." He said, "Governor Carey's
budget bills contain numerous lump
sum appropriations that could easily
be shifted, thereby thwarting the ine
tent of the legislature."

NYPIRG maintains that because
lump sum appropriations are
prevalent in the budget bills, neither
the legislature nor the taxpayers
know where tax money is really be-
ing spent. ‘The organization claims
the budget should be flexible enough
to allow the efficient operating of
state government, while providing
accountability as to where and how

SA Hats Are Thrown

by Paul Rosenthal

Nominations for student govern-
ment positions close today as SA of-
ficials prepare for the balloting,
scheduled to take place April 27, 28,
and 29

Up for election are the offices of
Student Association President and
Vice President, SASU Delegate, and
student representativesto University
se University Council, and
tral Council.

As of press time, five candidates
had announced that they were in the
runnning for the SA. presidency.
Two others have said that they are
running for the VP spot.

Those announced for the top spot
are: Steve DiMeo, Matt Kaufman,
Jonathan Levenson, Jay Miller, and
y Nichols.

Jost of the candidates agreed that
+f portion of campaingning.
would be done the week following
SUNYA’s spring break. Headed by
former central Council represen-
tative, Neil O'Connor, SA's Election
Commission will be preparing for
the voting.

Some of the candidates say they
want to see a campaign based more
on issues, than those of the past
were. Levenson said, “I want people
to vote for me because they like my
ideas.”

‘Common Sense, a group that
attempted to gain mass student sup-
port to endorse one candidate, died
due to lack of interest alter its first
meeting. A spokesperson for the
group. Daniel O'Connell, agreed
‘that sudent politicians “weren't will-
ing 10 work just on ideological
grounds.”

Kaufman said that past SA clec-
tions have been characterized by
students making very general
promises to the voters. Of his cam-
paign, he said, “I'm not going to
promise things to anyone,” He said
the key to his victory would be “get-
ting the people out to vote.”

Spread The Word

DiMeo said he plans to rely on
friends and acquaintances spreading
the word of his campaign. He said,
expect to go door-to-door on as
many quads as possible.”

‘When asked about thssigns usual-
ly plastered around the podium and
quads, Kaufman quipped, “Isaw the
janitors pulling them down.” Other
‘candidates doubted the effectiveness
of these signs. Levenson said, "Ifand
when I use signs, I'm going 10 use
them to explain why I'm running.”

Voters will choose a new SA Presi-
dent and Vise President separately,

although some candidatesin the past
have chosen to run on a two-person
ticket. SA Vice President Rich
Meckler, elected after coordinating a
campaign with president Andy
Bauman said, “It makes a good
working team." He does not think,
however, that runnning a campaign
with Bauman played any part in his
election
Two-Person Ticket

DiMco said he is seriously in-
terested in a two-person ticket for
this year's election, Speaking of Vice
Presidential candidate Jeff
Hollander, DiMeo said, “We're con-
sidering it, but we haven't committed

SUNYA's Assistant Director of
Public Safety Karl Scharl is satisfied
that this university takes the max-
imum precautions possible for the

' ments were prompted by Monday

morning's dormitory fire at Skid-
more which took the life of one stu-
dent and caused 79 others to be
hospitalized for smoke inhalation.
“We try to provide the safest en-

j vironment possible by maintaining

Free beer. Free ice cream. Free
soda, A SUNYA dream? Perhaps,
but the dream becomes reality after
the vacation,

A bill passed by Central Council
on March 31 appropriates $700 to
provide students with free beer, ice

sunny days,

According to Central Council

member Jonathan Levenson, — co-
introducer of the bill, free food will
be distributed the week students
return from vacation, There will be
two taps for beer and Student
Association will also provide soda
and ice cream for students who are
on the wagon.

The drinks and ice cream will be
served by FSA employees. Students
will need tax cards and proof in

Budget Cuts Confuse Legislators

continued from page one
Only under the heading™“longer term
effects" did the Task Force explain
that it would soon be necessary to
cut entire programs in order to
preserve others.

#1n Fields’ Report on Priority and
Resources, he often refers tothe next
year without mentioning the longer-
range purposes of the Task Force.
He lists the charges of the Task
Force, stating simply that it advised
him “on the development of the un-
iversity’s operating budget for the

next year.” The only reference to its
other purpose—deciding what

programs have priority for claiming
future resources—is a short
paragraph saying, “The Task Force
also made
position reallocations for 1977.

‘Although it clearly spe
where all cuts were to be made, the
‘Task Force was less clear on where
those lines being reallocated were in-
tended to go.

“At one point in time the Task
Force had numbers,” said SUNYA
Controller John Hartigan, himself a
member. Ultimately, however, these

were not used because the Task
Force didn't want “to pin down the
administration."

‘The 9-day deadline for the Task
Force applied to the $1.3 million in
mandated cuts, but Fields insisted
that reallocation decisions for 1977-
78 be made then, too —decisions
that could have been made months
later. “It’s a matter of psychology,”
explained Fields, “It should be done
cleanly, clearly, boldly, within a
imited amount of time.”

Not Unchallenged

But Fields’ mission does not go
unchallenged. “That mission is
assigned to him by the Board of
Trustees,” says Assemblyman
Landes, “if in fact the mission is
narrowed oF not responsive to what
the Board now feels is adequate
governing policy for SUNY, the
Board should correct it.” Landes
cited the elimination of Nursing as a
possible example.

‘Scharl anid that fires like the one
‘at Skidmore, whic originated in a
janitor’s closet, are caused by trash
thrown on top of rags soaked in
cleaning solvents, causing excess
heat and eventual fire,

Director of News Services for
Skidmore, Barbara Hogan said that
the ten year old dormitory in which
the fire broke out was wired with
heat sensitizers to set off an alarm
when the temperature exceeded a
certain heat level

Most of the students were sleeping
when the alarm did sound, slowing
the evacuation process, Since most
hallways were filled with smoke,
many students jumped froth their
room windows, while others slid to
safety via bedshéets tied together.

According to ScharlSUNYA'sup-
town dormitory floors are separated
by fire resistant materials and each
suite has its own heat sensor. Every
floor houses a fire house in the
stairwell, Depending onjurisdiction,
the quads are serviced either by the
McKnownville or Albany Fire
Departments, each, which upon
notification, takes four to five
minutes to reach the campus.

The downtown buildings contain
fire extinguishers in every hallway.
The alarm systems are linked direct-
ly to the Albany Fire Department

With regard to safety regulations,
Schail said that safety employees
‘must attend monthly orientations
and lectures reviewing safety
methods and information, In 1975,
summer orientation for incoming
freshmen offered a videotape of fire

reported that evacuation of the

six minutes,

Other precautions taken consist of
an annual inepection of each
building on both the uptown and
downtown campuses by the Depart-
ment of State, Division of Fire |
Prevention and Control.

‘The inspection, conducted, each
spring, takes three-to four weeks to
‘complete. All “public” places are in
spected ¢.g hallways, stairwells,
janitor closets, etc,

Scharl said that since November
of 1975 only six fires have been of
‘enough consequence to set off the
alarm system, Of these six, only one
‘caused damage due to smoke.

According to Scharl, smoke in-
halation is the primary cause of
death during fire. He said that 95%
of fire death i
fumes in smoke being inhaled,

False Alarms

Acconstant problem for the Safety’
Dept. at SUNYA is the excessive
number of false alarms issued month-
ly, Scharl said that since the begin
ning of the 1975 fall semester a total
of $5 false alarms have been issued,

Overall, Scharl says he's satisfied
with the maintainance of safety
egulations at the University. A re-
cent regulation states that any new
construction blueprints must be ap-
proved by Scharl’s department for
adherence to safety codes, Scharl
said that SUNYA buildings are
*. . . .avsafe as possible, They meet
all existing fire codes and New York

Fields Gets the Money Out

and in the future, the overall staffing

of the university.”
It is the reallocation of faculty

lines at the expense of other
departments that has spurred
criticism,

‘Students choose curricula accor-
ding to their own sense of what is
best for their lives. What they choose
has changed in the past five years,"
said Fields, meaningthat enrollment
in certain programs is putting the
faculty-student ratio well above

rage.

Fields went on to describe what he
called the“even-handed dribble.” He
said “The institution tried to make
cuts evenly throughout the universi-
. This hurts overall performance
because it gives the university more
departments that are weaker.”

“Given the magnitude of the cuts,
the only good thing to doisto reduce
our obligations from 129 programs
to 109," he said, Fields stressed the
point that the slashing of 20
programs was monetarily-
mandated, not policy. He said," The
same evaluation would have taken
place regardless of whether we were
public-policy oriented or not. We
had to get the money out.”

The subject then shifted to the
tenure process and its relation to the

Knight tenure

mission, since staffing of the univer-
sity includes who remains.

Fields prefaced this interview by
he would not “talk about
the specific qualifications of any in-
dividual,” thereby eliminating any
questions regarding the Brown and

88,

“The awarding of tenure is a
predictive judgment based on
evidence that the candidate will be
productiveinthe futrue," Fieldscon-
tinued, “There is a $600,000 commit-
ment involved.” Fields said, “Equal-
ly important in evaluating can-
didates are teaching and con
tributions to one's field. The use of
outside letters of review is the best
way to determine if one has made a
mark."

Fields defended the Advisory
Council on Promotion and Tenure
against criticism saying “the
procedure has been examined by
SUNY Central and passed.”

“The release of the reports which
deal with characteristics of in-
dividuals and outside evaluations
would be mischievous in the ex-
treme, It is meant to protect in-
dividuals from becoming matters of,
public debate,” said Fields,

Currently, the tenure cases of
Brown and Knight ‘re being
publicaly debated, nevertheless,

that there is no real cultural identity
in the College of Arts and Sciences.
As it is not structured, there is no
dean for the school.

‘The Arts and Sciences (A & S)
College is divided into three
departments, Humanities, Social
‘Science, and the Natural Sciences.
Each has three separate deans and
budgets. Students needs are discuss-
‘ed on a departmental level. This, ac-
cording to Fields, tends to eliminate
any degree of collegiality.

A&S Council Chairman Arnold
Foster says that the problem is, “We
have one college and three deans.”

Last month the Council met to
consider the restructuring of the un-
dergraduate degree program which
might result in the dissolution of the
A&S College. A return to some
system of requirements for all
students was also suggested. Up to
now, there has been only general
departinental requirements.

Fields said, “The decision this
summer to eliminate the dean from
the college was a narrow decision.”
He said,"It wasn’t necessarily a de

Sclence Magzine is out with the
bizarre suggestion that the infamous
Salem witch trials of 1692 wore caus-
ed by the fact that many Salem
residents were unknowingly stoned
on a chemical similar to L.S.D.
The highly respected scie
journal, in‘an article published by a
University of California at Santa
Barbara researcher, says there is
overwhelming evidence that many
Salem residents may have been
hallucinating on a fungus called
“ergot”.
cording to psychology
researcher, Linnda Caporael, ergot
is a fungus that commonly com
taminated rye several centuries ago.
Caporael writes that ergot poisoning
resulted in powerful hallucinogenic
cffects—similar to those produced
by LS.D. along with disturbances
in skin sensations and dizziness.
Caporael suggests that the
suspected victims of witch curses in

were possessed because they began
to imagine strange things and their
skin began pricking with pain.

‘The result, she writes, is that un-
popular or unorthodox Salem
residents were tried and executed as
witches under the belief they had cast
evil spells.

George Gerbner and Larry Gross

reality and the world,

The two researchers, writing in
Psychology Today, state that telev

many live with the constant fearthey

Gerbner and Gross report their
survey found that half of all 12-year-
‘old sampled currently watch televi-
sion for six hours per day, A third of
all adults reportedly watch the tube
for at least four hours daily.

The researchers add that an
analysis of TV. programmingfound
that violence and encounters with
police heavily dominate prime time
hours, far out of proportion to any
real life situations.
ner and Gross suggest since
many crime shows are set in big
cities, television may inspire the fear
that is causing the middle-class to
leave the cities. They add this fear
may also bring increasing demands
for police protection and the election

‘An International Convention for
the Regulation of Whaling was
organized in 1935, Fishing of sperm
and bowhead whales, then comimer-
cially extinct, was outlawed. In 1949,
this organization changed its name
tothe Internation Whaling Commis-
sion,

‘The United States, Great Britain,
Norway, and the Netherlands, all
members of the !WCand once major
whaling nations, have discontinued
their whaling fleets, The United
States has made it illegal to kill any
whale, or to import any type of
whale product.

‘The Soviet Union and Japan, also
members of the IWC, still continue
to hunt whales extensively, Chile
and Peru don't belong to the 1WC,
and they account for a lesser amount
of the whaling industry,

The! WC has regulated against the
taking of Right whales (so called
because it was just “right” for
whalers, easy to kill and full of
blue, gray, and humpback whales.
The taking of any female with calve
is forbidden, and minimum sizes are
fixed for all catchable species, But
the {WC has no enforcement agency.

In 1963 the IWC quota for blue
whales was 15,000, At the end of the
year only 112 were reported killed.
The implications were clear; either
the quota was too high, or the in-
dustry wasn't reporting.al ofits kills.

in a historical and political context
atthe expense of the important

Playboy the production avoids this.
Robert Donnelly's set design is sim-
ple and yet imaginatively conceived.
‘Synge’s language is so delicious and
rhythmic, that it constantly re
itself and avoids becoming a period

dated, as does the alogue of
Moonchildren, which seemed to be

and the action and energy are evenly
dispersed. Pamela Nyberg as Pegeen

facade to cover her tender sensitivi-

on this quota, Dt, Kelly observed,
“Many eyebrows were raised over
the discovery of this new species of
whale, Later, it was discovered that
the Pygmy blue whale is in fact a
baby blue whale, The industry simp-
ly devised a rubric to circumvent the
quota.”

For the last three years the IWC
has refused a ten-year moratorium
on whaling proposed by the United
States. Some 20 wildlife protection
groups, both Houses of Congress,
the AFL-CIO, and the Departments
of Interior and Commerce have
given their backing to the an-
tiwhaling movement, which en-
dorses a boycott of all Japanese and
Soviet Union products,

In defense, the Japanese claim
that whale meat is an important and
inexpensive source of food for low-
income Japanese, “The question,”
Dr, Kelly asks, “is who owns the
sea.”

Whales have been shown to ex-
hibit a high degree of intelligence in

‘on smaller species of whales (killer

which are also considered whales)
have caused certain scientists to con-

Despite these and similar cries
made by many members of the Food
Co-op formed on campus this
semester, they believe that overall it's
a success,

Suzan Sachs, a member takingher
turn at working in the Co-op last
Tuesday, explained: “I means
cheaper food for a lot of people, and
it's easy to get to.”

But problems do exist.

“t's hard to schedule people to work

people only work two hours a

time slot.”

But member Danny Conviser
voiced the major grievance found by
the members/employees: “People
don't know what they'ré doing when
they come here. There's not enough
training”

“To alleviate this problem,” Mar-
tinez explained, “Robin Perchik,

Judge and Caesar's Wife

Inthe April 2, 1976, issue of the Knickbocker News,
Robert G. Fichenberg, the executive editor of that
paper, published an editorial entitled “The Judge and
Caesar's Wife.” In this editorial, Mr. Fichenberg
comments on a recent case of possible judicial
misconduct. He cites the Fourth Canon on Judicial
Ethics: “A judge's conduct should be free from
impropriety and the appearance of impropriety.” This,
he says, isthe “Caesar's wife principle.” He explains that
a judge, like Caesar's wife, must, because of his
position of special public trust and responsibility,
conduct himself in such a way that he is beyond
ieproach.”

Fichenberg continues: “It is taken for granted that a
judge will not commit an impropriety. It is equally
important that he do nothing—no matter how well
motivated—that even would give the appearance of
impropriety.” Not everyone will be familiar with the
historical incident from which the “Caesar's wife
principle” derived its name. {t is, in fact, one of the most
interesting incidents in Roman history.

‘Among the political leaders of Rome in theturbulent
first century B.C., none was more radical than Publius
Clodius Pulcher. Clodius was a young aristocrat who
owned great wealth and whose ambitions knew neither
fear nor moral restraints. His own dissolute character
was matched by that of his sister Clodia, who in all
likelihood is none other than the infamous Lesbia of
Catullus’ poems,

In 62 B.C, the rites of Bona Dea, the Good Goddess,
which were open to women only, were conducted in the
house of Julius Caesar, who was that year the Pomifex
Maximus, Clodius attended these rites disguised as a
young girl but was discovered. All Rome was
scandalized, and most people felt certain that Clodius
motive had been to gain access 10 Caesar's wile
Pompeia, Caesar responded to the incident by divorcing
his wife, but he refused to testify
court. When he was asked to explain this a a
contradiction he said that “Caesar's wife must be
suspicion."Clodius’ trial, in spite of Cicero's dam
testimony ended in acquittal because Clodius
bribed the jury.

Caesar, asit appears held no grudge against Clodius
To the contrary, he, Pompey, and Crassus supported
Clodius for the tribuneship, Clodius held this office in
58 B.C. and used it to have Cicerosent intoexile. Cicer
managed to be recalled a year later only through the
intercession of Pompey. Clodius went on to
glorious things yet. He organized an armed gang which
fought in the streets of Rome with a rival gang led hy a
certain Milo, In 52 B.C. Clodius finally was killed bs
some of Milo's men, Clodius’ supporters carried the
body to the senate house and burned the building over
him as a suitable funeral pyre.

Dr. John Lilly, a marine biologist,
hias written ‘several books on
dolphins. In The Mind of the
Dolphin he describes an experiment
in which a dolphin was taught to
speak using sounds resembling
English words. Although the
dolphin's vocal and auditory fre-
quencies far exceed the human
range, Dr. Lilly interpreted the
sounds to bea clear attempt at com-
munication.

In another experiment, dolphins
were taught how to play basketball.
After easily learning the rules, they
deliberately broke them, making up
‘mew ones as soon as the old rules
bored them.

Dr. Lilly believes dolphinsto be as
intelligent as humans, but living i
water, non-gravity based environ-
ment has caused their intellect to
develop differently,

In experiments with killer whales
at the =marine-mammal research
center at the Vancouver, British
Columbia aquarium, Christopher
Whiting, a researcher, commented
that “ the killer whale has a
tremendous memory for det
think they have theability to sort out
every boat on the Pacific.”

In other experiments conducted
off the coast of Vancouver by the
crew of the antiwhaling ship Vega,
sponsored by the Greenpace Foun-
dation, music was piped into a
school of California gray whales.
The whales responded positively to
Brahms and Tchaikovski concertos,

ask, if whales aresmart
‘enough to like Johnny Cash, then
why can't they evade whalers?
Perhaps it has to do with the modern
manner in which whales are hunted.

Catcher boats use sonar,.which
detect whales by bounciny

piped into the sea, This
terrifying underwater sound is used
to frighten and confuse the whale.
The whale's ears finally stop ringing
when a 250-pound harpoon, launch
ed from aship, gouges through 20inm
ches or so of neck blubber, and.a
grenade detonates inside the whale’s
head. This deadens the deafening
sound,

The United States Department of
Interior has listed 8 great whales as
facing extinction; the blue, sperm,
right, sei, humpback, bowhead, fin,
and gray whales. The IWC has also
declared the blue whale endangered,
but it may be too late for recovery.

Some estimates put the blue whale
count at slightly more than 200,
Those remaining males might not be
able to find enough females with
which to mate, The Finback whale
faces the same problem.

According to Dr. Kelly, even if a
male and female do meet, the female
might not accept the male:

“If human beings got into the
situation in which there were two
people left in the world, probably

1 am writing in response to the article that
appeared in your paper concerning the
volleyball team, written by Dave Levy. I think
the impression was given that the volleyball
team was on the brink of folding because of
lack of participative interest. This is definitely
‘not the situation that exists, I cannot speak for
the men’s (eam, but as for the women's team,
the turnout was one of the highest for the
women’s sports. The only interest that we lack
is a fan interest, and that, I feel, is largely due
to a lack of knowledge of our existence. We
are alive, and well, and strong, and we did hold
the best record.

To the Kditor:

As we look back historically and note the

change that has taken place in the teaching

~ profession, we see that the functions and

bilities of the teacher have vastly in-

creased, The methods, the philosophy, andthe

professional standards which make teaching

what it is today are a far ery from the colonial
schoolmaster,

Since the college teacher works with adults,
he need not be too familiar withthe intricacies
of child growth and development or with
‘educational methods — unless he decides to
make child or educational psychology his
specialty.

‘The college teacher, first and foremost,
must be expert in some specialized fi
ge. The college history teacher
ly to be @ well-known historian; the physics
teacher may be a research scientist; the
sociology instructor, an expert in juvenile
delinquency. f

College teachers are expected to make
scholarly contributions to theit field. They
must, therefore, like research and writingsince
large measures of their professional advance-
ment will depend on their ability* with these
skills, They will be expected to keep pace with
new developments in their fields, and they will
be judged by their colleagues on the basis of
the original argicles, research papers, and
books they publish,

But, here lies the fact that all college
teachers must fact: it mustbe clearly un-
derstood that goodteachingin college is essen-
tial, us it is in high school or in elementary

teacher,
soon enough. To give you an example, when _

the famous educator, Dr. William Heard
Kilpatrick, professor emeritus of Teachers
College, Columbia Univesity, was a teacher,
the students flocked to him in droves. He was
called the “mfilion dollar professor” because
in the 27 years he taught at Teachers College
the 34,000 students who came to him from60
‘countries paid the college $1,000,000 in fees!
His classes were so large that he had to move
out of the classroom and go to the college
auditorium!

The author (Kilpatrick) took several
courses with him and can vouch for his talents.
He could teach! What he had to say was said
so clearly, so concisely, soeffectively, that you
had no difficulty in keeping up with his ideas.
He had a well-modulated voice. His
arguments were concise and orderly. He had
infinite patience, and a world of tact, skill, and
understanding. At no time did he lose
temper or belittle his students. He took his job
seriously, but he had afine sense of humor and
knew when to laugh. He was always well-
prepared and did more than read from musty,
yellowed notes. His subject became alive —
and so did he. When you walked into Dr.
Kilpatrick's room, you felt inspired. You
wanted to go out, and become a teacher, too.
He filled you with enthusiasm and inspired
you to greater efforts. He was a great teacher,
‘Are most of our professors like that?

Not all teachers can be Kilpatricks. But all of
us, whether we aspire to teach on the clemen-
tary, high school, or college levels, can prepare
‘ourselves to do a good job, As I'm planningto
become a college teacher, | do not believe in
just research and writing. { believe that 1 must
teach well, too, For teaching on every level re-
quires hard preparation and a mastery of
much knowledge and information,

Faculty — student relationships vary from
college to college. In the larger colleges and

universities like here, teacher — student
relationships are impersonal and formal, since
the teacher in such institutions probably teads
a busy double life as scientist or scholar and
teacher, In the smaller colleges, where both
teucher and students live and work in the same
community, there is more chance for infor-
mality and friendship outside the classroom.

The main reason for this article is to simply
point out the fact that most college teachers
here cannot teach ut all! I think it is time for
college teachers here to get into the “hang” of
teaching and become successful in teaching,
not only in writing and research. We will learn
much better from college teachers who are
prepared to teach well sind who are dedicated
to good teuching. That's what makes up a
good faculty — teaching. A university such as
ours should have a faculty that is good, effec-
tive, and has high aspirations for teaching. 1
honestly hope that the teachers and professors
here will soon realize how important and
valuable teaching and dedication is to us as
well as to themsel ves.

an end, utopia, to justify the means. That must

the peasants’ surplus” used it to create What We
call civilization. Ig other societies they had the
misery without the civilization. When Louis

when the downswing of the dynastic cycle in
China made the gentry extortionate, this
obscured their earlier and potential alter con-

To the Editor:

We were astonished to learn of the Ad-

most notable, environmental protection.

‘Andrew Yencha has shown an unfailing in-

unattainable. We, therefore, appeal to the Ad-

To the Editor:
In the midst of SUNYA’s budgetary crisis,
and all of the other problems of our college
‘community this may seem insignificant and
trite to the masses. But to the hundreds who
use our game room daily this is of much con-
cern. And it could mean as much as a 33 1/3%
increase in FSA's gross out of the game room.
What is this fascinating, imaginative
brainchild? Why, to either adjust the present
change machine inthe CCto give 4 quarters or
install such a machine in the roomitself. After
all, the machines also will give change of a
quarter by reinserting it. How many times
have I walked out of the game room, head
lowered in despair, with several dimes and
nickels in my pocket, but completely devoid of
those all-useful two-bit pieces. And, by the
time I get down to the snack bar to exchange
thse 5 and 106 pieces, I've lost my desire to
climb back up those stairs when ! could more
easily just sit down, have a beer, and forget
about pinball
So come on, FSA! You're charging us a
goddamn quarter to play two games while at
most colleges it's 10¢ per game. So give us and
yourselves a break. We know that you, like
McDonald's, do it all for us.

John Kennedy Slept Here

‘wssasee 8088 8
A big whirlwind has been stirred up recently
regarding the supposed sexploits by the late
John F, Kennedy, and in the fine tradition of
American free enterprise two new magavines
on the subject are now gracing th
newsstands, One is entitled JEA'S Love Af
fairs, the other is called Kenneds's Women.
They display such catchy headlines as
Woman Wha Slept with JEK lor Three
Years --He Paid for Her Abortion When She
Became Pregnant!" or “How JFK's Sex
capades With a Suspected Spy Got Him Into
Hot Water With the FBI”

How about this excerpt from a story in
JFK's Love Affairs: “She was everybody's
sexual dreamgirl, a quivering-lipped, erotic
looking package of passion-packed dynamite
threateningto explode at any moment. He was
the President of the United States, and
although they seemed worlds apart, they had a
common urgency and need that drew them
together like magnets.”

Actually this reminds me somewhat of
something which happened a number of years
ago to the late President Sukarno of In-
donesia, When in Russia once Sukarno was
Supplief with a call girl to please his every
desire. Little did he know that everything he
did and said (in bed, that is) was being record-
ed on film. The Russians, it would seem, had
the intent of using thefilmto blackmail the In-
donesian President. Well the plan backfired.
Sukarno got ahold of the film and played it in
the moviehouses of Indonesia. He was not
afraid of showing his countrymen what a virile
leader they had.

‘The closest a President inthis country ever
came to such a risque act was when Lyndon
Johnson lifted his shirt o show reporters the
sear from his gall bladder operation. How
dull!

‘Of course the difference between Sukarno
and JFK is that the latter case constitutes post-
tem embarrassment. [magine, though, »
Sukarno-like film made of JFK's supposed

shy David Troeger

sexploits: “All the President's Women~ the
behind the scenes story of the Waterbed sean-
dal.”

I think this whole (lap over Kennedy’s love-

life just points up what stuffed-shirts we
Americans are when it comes 1 sex. If this
{ype of thing was passe for us it would never
have had such play in the media. Does this
matter regarding Kennedy and his sex life out-
rage us because a President of the United
States supposedly (and | emphasize supposed-
{y) fooled around, showing a luck of morality,
id rectitude which we expect in
ader? Or are a Lot of usjealous of
apades, wishing that wetoo
could have such a dreamlike romantic and
sexual life? I tend to think the answer lies more
nearly with the latter.
a different perspective, why should
ns be irate at President Kennedy's ac-
tivities? It is really quite in tune with the
bicentennial spirit. After all, George
Washington bragged about all the different
places he went to bed. Remember those signs
that read: “George Washington slept here"?
The only difference bet ween George and John
is that you never found out who George was
sleeping with. You don't think it was Martha
do you? In John Kennedy's case every woman
this side of Phyllis Diller has alluded to the
fact that they've been in the sack with him.
Probably half of them shook his hand and got
off on it, and that’s about all there is to it,

Seriously folks, though, one tends to think
that if JFK was "getting it on” as much as the
stories would have us believe, all those sup-
posed women involved wouldn't have kept
their mouths shut between 1961 and 1963
when Kennedy was President, let alone till
1976. tseems inthis whole affair that the most
unfair cut of all is the simple fact that John
Kennedy isn’t around today to defend against
such charges, We might ask ourselves: is not
assassination enough, must we now also opt
for character assassination as well?

-editorial/com
| Missing The Mission

It is best described as a gross, practically universal, misconception. 5

All of the cuts made by President Fields’ Task Force were not, in fact, mandated by
the more than $1.3 million cut in the SUNYA budget handed down by the New York
State Legislature. Some of them were part of Fields’ longterm plan for the reallocation
of funds in line with his “mission” for the university. -

This misconception has been shared by many, including students, faculty, and
legislators, Fields says, “maybe it wasn't aaid forcefully enough; I don't know. Maybe
we need to say a few more things.” Maybe.

Amidst the confusion of mandated budget cuts, Fields is implementing his scheme
for giving the university a new direction; a public policy mission.

Questions about the cuts should be secondary to those about Fields’ mission. It is
easy to be upset with specific cuts, especially where personal concern is involved. But
Fields is giving this university a whole new direction; heis makinga policy decision for
the entire university.

Should Fields' “mission” for SUNYA be pursued, or should it be aborted. .. orisit
too late to choose?

Conscientious Cutting

Students have vehemently protested the budget cuts made in the State University
system by Governor Hugh Carey and the New York State Legislature—and rightfully
so, They are concerned about the quality and scope of education at their respective
universities and colleges.

New York State, however, is in the midst of a severe financial squeeze. The state
claims that there simply is not enough money floating around to replenish the funds
that have been stripped from the State University system, The New York Public
Interest Research Group is trying to prove that they're wrong.

NYPIRGis presently bringing a court case against Carey, The legislature ruled that
certain appropriations requested by Carey be reduced, thereby scratching a number of
state positions. But Carey defied this ruling, authorizing the payment of salaries to
these state employees, or—in the eyes of the legislature—former state employees.
NYPIRG is questioning Carey's constitutional right to do this.

Should NY PIRG win the court case, there will be money returned to the state budget
which could be funneled into any one of a number of state departments — perhaps the
State University system.

True, the amount of money that could be saved by this one isolated effort probably
wouldn't pay for a winter month's supply of coffec and hot chocolate at Rocky's mall
But every little bit counts, and it's the little bits that NYPIRG is trying to add up.
Among other things, they have sued to eliminate unconstitutional annuity payments,
They have conducted a study of energy wi in state buildings which they claim
indicates possible savings of tens of millions of dollars given the implementation of
reasonable conservation measures.

In short, NYPIRG is attempting to locate wasted or misused money in the state
budget. Then it can be put to work in state departments badly in need of aid,
departments such as the State University system.

NYPIRG believes that conscientious cuts can result in conscientious additions. This
theory seems sound, It’s time for students and legislators alike to follow NY PIRG's
lead.

“The lnie in simple: haw will the extra $19,000 be generated to cover the
difference between the AFC dnd Bauman figures:

ties under consideration: .

(1) Withdraw the $19,000 from the surplus. Each year the surplus earns
interest in the neighborhood of $12,000, s0 most of the money would be

interest. The major objection is fear the depletion of the surplus will prevent
‘constriiction of a fieldhouse ot bubble,

Fact: the fieldhouse we all dream uf will cost morethan one million dollars,
‘This $7,000 is a drop in the bucket in the long run.The bubble many have
heard about is a temporary structure at best, and may well not be worth the
expenditure as its life span is only 7—10 years.

‘| Furthermore, current plans call for a fieldhouse to be funded via a special
Activities fee to be paid in return for usage rights.

(1) Charge admission for all home football, soccer, and basketball games.
At Sia student, the five home football games with a
‘would gross $15,000 alone, not including the cost of payi
security, ete.

Yes, revenues would be generated, but dothe students at SUNY A desireto
pay a double tax (admission fee) for their home gam

Proponents of this plan say if students want sports let them pay for them
themselves and thus prove it.

(111) Let’s cut football and volleyball, The football program has an annual
budget of $12,000, volleyball is at $3,500, and these are the two newest sports,

There is no need to attempt to defend this suggestion.

(1) the Bauman plan: cut non-spectator sports like golf, But what do you
save? Golf costs less than one-seventh of the $19,000, and a recent discussion
between athletics supporters and SA Controller Stuart Klein revealed that
cutting golf, fall baseball, tennis, volleyball, and a couple of women's sports
would not produce the requested cuts.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, the case is actually clear-cut.This is not a
battle in which one side compromises with the other. Members of AFC claim
Bauman promised a compromise, and then never came up with one.

Furthermore, despite requests ‘by Central Council for an itemized list of
what Bauman’ proposed to cut, the SA president has nor produced said
cutlist. Instead, he apparently plans to cut $19,000 as a lump sum fromsome
area in the budget, probably administrative costs (student assistants,
supplies, ete.)

This is really u battle between proponents of intercollegiate athletics and
those who have little or no use for them. A compromise is not forthcoming,
so do not be fooled,

You are forewarned, Let your Central Council representative know where
you stand, Be counted now, because there is no tomorrow.

McCue’s Overtime Goal Leads Danes
To 8-7 Victory Over Oswego

by Nathan Selast

Don McCue scored with 30
seconds remaining in the second
overtime period to lead the Albany
State varsity lactouse team to an 8—
7 comefrom-behind win over Os
wego, Wednesday, at Great Lakers
Field.

The Danes trailed the Lakers by as
Many as three goals during the,
season-opener for both clubs, and
needed a Tom Graziose score with
just 3:23 remaining in regulation
play to send the game into overtime.

‘The Lakers drew first blood in the
overtime, and led 7—6 at the end of
the first, fourminute overtime

period,: but Albany's Bill Schmoll
knotied matters with 2:10 to play,
aetting up McCue's heroics.

“We were behind all game,” said
‘Albany coach Bill Fowler, “and our
ability to come back, expecially’ on
the road, is a good sign. We have a
young team, and that win showed we
have some real strength here.”

Danes Come Back

The hosts led by scores of 2—t

the come-back trail. Kevin Brown

Slant On Sports

‘The situation is simple: Athletic Finance Committee( AFC), after carefully
scrutinizing the proposed Intercollegiate Athletics Budget for 1976-77 has

passed a budget of $149,000,

Andrew Bauman, president of Student Association (SA), has publicly
stated he will norrecommend a budget of more than $130,000.

‘The decision regarding which figure WIL. be the budget for sports next
year will come onthe floor of Central Council sometime duringthe next three

weeks,
First, some information,

Each undergraduate student at Albany State pays $66 per year in student
tax; $14.50 of each $66 is mandated for intercollegiate athletics. Based on
Projected estimates of enrollment, roughly $130,000 will be generated,

In past yeurs the intercollegiate budget has been supplemented by funds
from the Athletic Advisory Board (AAB) Surplus, created more than a
decade ago by former SUNYA president Ezra Collins, The original purpose
of the surplus was as a safeguard against inflation (at that time, a mere three
percent) and, perhaps, for some construction purpose (fieldhouse, bubble, or

scoreboard),

The surplus was built via excess funds for athletics, created back in the
days when more money than was necessary was generated,

The key factor above all: this money was earmarked for athletics when
collected and when deposited in the surplus account, although members of
Central Councit and the executive branch contendit s general moneyfor any

Student Assaciation use,

In 1973, SA President Steve Gerber recommended that the surplus be
depleted to prevent AB from becoming overly dependent upon the surplus
(which was then at roughly $200,000 and part of which was being used
annually to supplement collected funds), The Gerber plan called for
‘approximately $30,000 a year to be withdrawn from the surplus and be used
for intercollegiate sports, annually until the surplus was down t« $30,000,

In October 1975, the current sess

n of Central Council voted tu !reeze the

AAB Surplus in hopes of maintaining it at $180,000 for construction

Plans Pave Way For New Pay Parking Lot

by Matt Kaufman

‘An estimated $60,000 has been
earmarked for the construction of a
pay parking Jot near Colonial Quad,
according to the Office of Manage-
‘ment and Planning.

The rationale for the building of
the Colonial Quad lot was expressed
in a report by Director of Security
James Williams which said that by
Ham. most round the
podium are filled with parked autos,
and half of them are parked illegally.

The report goes on to say that the
new fot planned to contain 120-140
parking ‘should relieve the
congestion.” According to Lloyd
Hebert who is in charge of Parking
‘Che University Police Department,
there are about 9500 cars registered
with his department. Of those, 9500,
167 subscribe to the monthly rental
Jot located near Dutch Quad, There
is a waiting fist of 56 who wish to
park there

The money forthe Jot will betaken
from revenues received by selling
parking decals and issuing tickets,
An additional $15,000 from these
funds will go to pave the existing pay
lot near Duteh,

This money makes up the Income
Fund Reimbursal (IER) which is
recycled throughout the university
for repaying and administraion
costs, According to the Office of

agement and Planning last
year’s IFR totalled $126,677 as of

March 31
According to Vice President for
ment and Planning John

. there have been plans to
build a pay lot near Colonial, as well
as State and Indian in the future for
several years.

“These two other lots (State and
Indian] may not come to pass,” said
Robert Stierer of Management and
Planning, “and we are looking into
it, There is no definite timetable for
these Lots.”

“The Colonial lot will encompass
the grassy southwest area [bet ween
the Quad and the Podium}, which
does include some trees,” said Karl
Scharl of the Department of Public
Safety, “These trees would then be
taken out and replanted across the

ad.
“I'd rather not sce the lot if there
wore a better alternative,” said Louis
Ismay, geology professor and head

of the Environmental Decisions
Commission (EDC). He explained
‘that the alternative “would be people
parking where they must park.

UUP Questions Rehiring Policy

by Ed Mover

The. cutbacks recommended by
President Field's Task Force have
resulted in disagreement’ between
SUNYA’s faculty, the Albany Un-
ited Universiy Professions union and
the Personnel Department over the
possible rehiring of those laid-off,

According to a legal contract with
New York State, UUP members are
to be offered ‘special consideration’
in the ‘same or similar’ position they
previously occupied, should a job
opportunity arise,

Gary Westervelt, chairman of a
UUP Committee which is
Fenegotiating the contract, says this
should leave the Personne} Depart-
ment with “no choice” but to give
jobs to laid-off SUNYA professors,
rather than “going outside the cam-
pus" to hire people, Thus Westervelt
stresses “previous employment” at

We've got a lot of selfish people

“But the solution is not building
more parking lots,” said Lynne

SUNYA for job qualification,

Albany UUP newsletter, Albany
UUP President Bruce’ Marsh main-
tained that the university “is under
certain moral and ethical obligations
to its employees. . . to make every
effort to secure suitableemployment
for persons whose jobs were
eliminated through retrenchment,”

SA Candidates Speak Tonight On WSUA

by Paul Rosenthal
Candidates for Student Associa-
‘adership positions are inten-

final opportunities to scrutinize
them,

Candidates’ Forum,” a panel in-
terview of all candidates for SA
President and Vice-President, will be
aired on WSUA tonight at 7:30.
Reporters from both the campus
radio station and the Albany Stu-
dent Press will question the
nominees on the campaign's issues,
The program will be rebroadcast
Sunday at 10 pm,

An informal discussion with the
candidates for top positions will be
held Sunday night inthedutch Quad
U-Lounge,

The field of candidates for the SA
Presidency has narrowed to four,
with the announced withdrawl of
Ray Nichols, Remaining in the race
are: Steve DiMeo, Matt Kaufman,

Jonathan Levenson, and Jay Miller,
Miller's running mate, Bryant
Monroe, has ended his campaign
due to personal dissatisfacton with
the race. Two candidates are now
running for Vice President: Jeff
Hollander and Gary Parker.
Balloting, scheduled for Tuesday,
Wednesday, and Thursday, will also
include races for SASU Delegate,
student representative to University
Council, and for seats on Central
Council and University Senate.
Much discussion during this year's
campaign has centered around the
practice of running a two-person
ticket. Although students will vote
for President and Vice President
seperately, several candidates have
expressed interest in working as a
team, This year’s SA leaders, Presi-
dent Andy Bauman and Vice Presi-
dent Rick Meckler, were elected
after running a two-person cam-
paign.
Parker, a supporter of Nichols

before his withdrawalfrom the cam-
paign, said there was some talk of a
joint campaign, He decided,
however, “We could get_more ac
complished if we worked ndividual-
ly."

DiMeo and Holtander are run-
hing a two-person campaign.

Of the six students runningfor the
Lop two posts, four have had direct
experience in student government,
having served as representatives to
Central Council, Kaufman and
Parker, the candidates not on Coun-
Gil, cite their independence from SA
as a reason they can be trusted by the
voter

A simple majority is required for
election to either of the two
Positions. Many observers believe a
run-off for the Presidency will be
necessary, Each of the four can-
didates have predicted a victory,

Voting takes place on dinner lines
next week on the quads, Com-
Muters cast their ballots in the

“We have to match up a
Professor's speciality withthe skills a
vacancy requires,” said Calhoun. “A.
professor of Geology might not be
qualified for a particular field of
Geology.”

Westervelt admits “of course
there's always someone more
qualified,” yet counter the contract's
Purpose is not to raise the quality of
personnel, but to “protect current
employees.”

In turn, Calhoun describes the
present rehiring policy as only fait
“before publicly advertising a posi-
tion, we send an announcement of
the vacancy to the retrenched per-
son, and give him 15 days to apply

» if he is found qualified,” says
‘Calhoun, the job is his,

Calhoun advised UUP to Sook at
the issue in a broader, “University.
wide" way, For example, he said, “If
We retrench professors here, and
New Paltz rehires," then UUP
should help coordinate the two
schools’ needs. And he added laid-
off teachers are tuitions waivers “to
take additional courses for jobs in
other arcas.”

“Except for one or two, the
retrenched have not posessed the ex-
perience in the specialized areas,”
stated Calhoun, while Westervelt
Mlatly said, “1 know of no one
retrenched who has been offered
reemployment.”

In his article Marsh said “these
persons (professors, retrenched)
have lost or are about to lose their
positions solely for or
organizational reasons, not through
any flaw in their performance."

Westervelt charged President
Fields with “not living up to the in-
tent of the contract.” He said after
the Political Science department had
recommended the rehiring of some
of the Allen Center professors,
Fields had alledgedly “withdrawn
the department's vacant lines,"
