Spent Funds Improperly
‘The SA Boating and Sailing Club, one of three
organizations tentatively slated to be cut from the SA.
Budget for next year, may have spent its allocation
unwisely, according to SA Budget Committee Chair John
Sharkey.
Club President Bernard Prenn-Ward received
approximately $800 of the club's funda for teaching
services he offered as an instructor, Sharkey said.
‘Legally, that's all right," Sharkey said. “But ethically
it's questionable.” He added that the committee had not
formally decided that the action was improper.
‘The club only serves about 25 people, Sharkey said,
which also contributed to the decision not to extend its
funding into next year.
‘We are trying to gear the budget towards things that
benefit larger groups of students, and get away from
funding special interest groups,” Sharkey said.
Prenn-Ward said he didn't think the club's spending
policy had been questionable. “They needed to out funds
land the Sailing Club seemed like a good place.” he said.
Sharkey said the group's gasoline and travel »xpen
as they were listed on their budgot sheet for this year, were
unusually high,
He added that the Club President's salary of $800, even
for services he rendered as instructor, was high
considering that the SA chief executive receives only $250
per semester.

budget line accounts for the
reduction there, according to
Sharkey. He added that
‘Theatre Council's funds were
reduced because the money
was essentially going directly
to the theatre department, and
because SA had little control
over their use,
Sharkey mentioned also
that ASUBA funding was
‘substantially reduced because
"the group could not defend its
expenditures.” They were
unable to delineate their
expenses, he said.
Slated for increased funding
noxt year are, among others,
WCDB ($4300), Focus

bbighteon institutions which
have extension centers in
Westchester County were
studied in a report sponsored
by the State Education
Department. Among the
institutions surveyed were
SUC New Paltz and SUC
Purohase.
Off-campus extension
centers operate like
nporary branches of a
versity, offering extension
courses and degrees under the
wsupices of a larger
institution.
The report claims that
faculty who teach in off
‘campus programs often do not
possess the qualifics
required by the Commissioner
of Education. It also says that
some extension centers "do
not meet standards for class
attendance as defined in
Commissioner's Regulations,
yd nor do they appear to require
extra independent study to
‘compensate for reduced class
time.
In addition, the report says
that Master's degree
programs offered at the
Centers often do not require a
comprehensive lost, thesis, or
special project, as is required
by the state
‘Acoording to SED Director
of Academic Programs
Donald Nolan. the study was
undertaken at the request of
the Board of Regents, The
report's introduction cites
“the sharp increase of off-

Stato" as justification for the
study centers,
SED Director of
Information Donald Bloom
said the Board of Regents has
expressed concern at the
report, and requested that a
study of the charges be made
inoluding recommendations
for action.
‘The report expresses
concern that exte
centers are coming to
resemble branch campuses,
which they are not. "By
Regulation, an extension
conter is ‘a site other than the
principal center of an

Several of the institutions
studied offer entire degree
programs or significant
portions of degree programs
off-campus, according to the
study.
The report also states that
nine of the institutes studied
have been offering courses
off-campus for four years or
Jonger, The report says this
cannot be considered

‘The study claims that off-
campus operations have
grown in recent years due to

In general, the
administrative offices of off-

It also states that

has a-mandatory retiroment mule;
when Muir turned 65 in 1976 it was
onvoked, She had been there since
id of the rule, “{it)
that on a certain day ina
life, they at that moment
become obsolete and senile, so
they retire them. 1 would have
nothing to do with that...t's damn
tomfoolery to retire people at 65,"
To prove her point, she earned a
Bachelor's degree from Stephens
in 1977 “just to show them". A
picture of the commencement
exercise is one of her office walla
next to her current schedule of
clases,
That incident seems typical of
the way Muir has conduoted her
life, While speaking to her, one
senses a toughness and drive
undiminished by age. This
toughness is mixed with a certain
sensitivity and genuine concern
forthe world she lives in,and more
importantly:.the peoplo in it.
Muir does not enjoy discussing
the blacklisting, not because it is
too painful to recall, but becuuse it
bores her just as most past events
do, In concise business-ike way
she recounts “a very sim
thing.” y smelt
In 1950 she was cast in her first
mother role, that of Henry
Aldrich’s mother in a new T.V.
series based on the old radio
ries.
‘Three hours before alr-time the
cast was informed thet there
would be no show. There had been

‘a8 Mother Aldrich was supposed
to ‘undermine or try to overthrow
the government through the useot
force of violence’ I'm not quite
sure...but that was the end of my
career.”
‘After nine years of hoavy
drinking during which she early
died, the toughness and strength
Muir still exhibits made it
possible for her to pull herself
together.
She contracted cirrhosis of the
liver and was given six months o
live. Muir got a divorce, stopped
drinking, and became the one out
of every 8,000 cirrhosis patien'sto
actually recover fromthe disease.
Her doctor gave her two cube
centimeters of Vitamin B Complex
5 times per week, and in effect
rebuilt her liver.
"He says Idid it and I say hedid
it...'ve been in perfect health ever
since.”
Muir fools that her first career,
as an actress, was unsuccessful
‘This observation is not made only
in retrospect; she knew then that
she was not even close to
achieving what she had wanted! as
an actress
Although she had attained some
degree of popularity, she was
never a major box oflice
attraction. (She was actually more
popular in England than in
America.)
“I wasn't being allowed to
develop as a human boing or as an
artist...You think to be a star in
films is to be a success, but I never
felt that way.”
After her divorce and recovery
from cirrhosis in 1959, Muir tried
to act again. She was virtually
starting from the bottom again,
and soon found that she did not

almost before I found out aboutthe
canoe race. She's not one tolet slip

affirm her cultural heritage.
On the morning of the race 1
awoke to the blast of my alarm
clock. I could hear the rain and
while still burrowing out of my
bed, Deer called to announce she
thought the race had been
cancelled. “Why don’t you call the
sponsors and get back to me.” I
phoned the Mechanicville Fire
Department—"Canoe races don't
get ruined out, man”—and relayed
the news to Deer.
‘The cance was languishing in
the backyard of a friend's house,

when we sighted our first canoe.

canoe dashed by us barrelling its

we drew nearer to Mechanicville
we spotted more canoes, the sight
minded me of what the last time I
drove northbound on the Thruway
during deer hunting season was
like, Dozens of deers were lashed
onto the trunks of hunters’
vehicies.
The race was to begin at noon,
near Coons Crossing just outside
of Mechanicville, off Route 67.
After turning onto the Crossing,
our wagon fell into a line of eanoe-
laden vehicles. Two men in their
early thirties crossed in front of
our stopped car. The garb they
sported proved to be the standard;
a wet suit, candy colored life vest,
and vinyl! gloves. A loudspeaker
was calling racers to the starting
line, advising them that all
participants must wear a U.S.
Coast Guard life jacket. "Shit," 1
muttered sullenly. We'd only

us bluntly that we could not race
unless euch of us wore a preservor.
‘As @ courtesy she announced
blithely over the loudspeaker that

curiosity seekers wishing to sot

was too hasty. An old man inched
toward Deer. “Have you done

him she was one quarter Indian, as

about streotsinging,
‘Although Buird seeks w involve
himself with his audiences
wherever he might be, whether in
Minnesota, Michigan or Albany,
he feels most involved in his home
town, Boston.
‘There's a community there and

to hear me. . . they all know they
can find me there.
Baird plays in daycare center
nursing homes, prisons and
hospitals in and around Boston.
And he playson Boston Commons,
sometimes for six hours,
sometimes for twelve, depending
on the crowd and the weather. He
makes about $25 a day on the
average, but has made up to $150
on his best summer days.
In the winter it can get pretty
cold in Boston,” said Baird.
Minneapolis is nico in the winter,
they have all these glassed-in
bridges where streetsingers
congregate and play; the people
out there love acoustic music.”
But very few places love
streetsingers, In many towns and
cities, streetsingers are equated
with panhandlers, vagrants, and
other “undesirables.” Although
few states have laws prohibiting
streetsinging, most do have laws
‘against soliciting or begging, and
depending on how that law is
locally interpreted, a

ouch day. f
“It's absurd,” Baird said. “Ikeep
100 per cent of what I make from
donations, and as long as the Arts
Council writes s check for the
exact amount in my case, it'slegal.
However, if I wont right cutside,
did the same thing, made the same
amount of money and put itin my
pocket, in most cities I could be -
arrested for soliciting.”
In July, 1975, Baird wae hired by
a regional branch of the National
Music Council in Washington,
D.C. He was playing in the grand
foyer, doing his street routine just
like any other day, except with his
guitar case closed because he was
being paid a set fee
“Someone in tho audience stuck
fa plastic cup with » dollar in
itn front of me, and inno time, the
money was overflowing on the
carpet all around me, Well, as soon
as they saw that, the cops walked
over and grabbed me for
soliciting, right in front of
hundreds of people, including the
entire National Music Council.
‘There was a lot of yelling and
booing, and I wasn’t arrested. All
that and [ hadn't done or said a

‘As an anti-Vietnam chemical
engineering student at
Northeastern University during
the late sixties, Baird went on
“To be a good streetsinger, you've got to do more
than play songs, you've got to be able to come out to
people.”

A law that can be interpreted
like that is just as effective as one
aguinst stroetsinging itself.”
Baird said, "How can | afford to

if Lean't receive money for it?
Though he's never been arrested

fellow streetsingers have, and

down and talk to the D.A, about it,
or someone in the
department.” What it
comes down to is a question of
inition of terms and
interpretation of the purpose of &
law,” Baird said. “What we did in
Boston and Cambridge, where
rectsinging is now lexal, is
worked out a redefinition of
soliciting and panhandling.
Baird, who has studied
streetsinging down through the
ages. suid that ever since there
were troubadours and minstrols,
there has been oppression and
hassling of streotsingers. People
who sit around drinking and
singing and encouraging other
people not to go to work are not

upholders of any power structure,
whether « foudal lord or a modern
fuctory owner
Baird tries to logitimize
streotsinging by getting himself
hired by City Arts Councilsto play
for benefits, concerts, fairs. He
tries to persuade the Council to
hire him on the basis of what he
can make strictly on “voluntary
donations,” ‘The Council then

audition for two or three hundred
schools at a whack. It's very
competitive and can be &
brutalizing experience, but it's
worth it if you oan get thirty or

Baird put together a whole
promotional package out of that
showcase that he sends around the
country, He is currently on an
eight-week tour that will take him
through a number of SUNY
campuses, Then he'll take a week
off before he leaves on a twelve-
week tour of the Midwest,
During that week off, Baird
intends to return to the University
of Michigan in Anne Arbor. “Iwas

for about four or five hours. In that
time, a crowd of over 500 people
gathered, and they gave me more

Friday afternoon, Baird played
in several Quad cafeterias during
mealtime, when people had to

Judes Pri
By PETER SGOURIS
n the disreputable spirit
of such part rock
Oyster Cult, Judas Priest
[is yet another frightful collection
of demon rockers who spew forth
fiery music from the very bowels
of hell. Armed only with
amphetamines and electronic
amplification, they sing of such
relevant themes as war, drug:
death, and close encounters of the
third kind, Their audiences tend to
be underage, and their head
singers tend to resemble shrill-
screaming malnourished
skeletons, perhaps as some
persuasion of symbolic gesture in
the manifestly evil blood-bath of
hell-fire rock and roll.
‘And whereas the quality of
amphetamines seems to have
gone downhill in the past fow
years, the quality of electronic
‘amplification, not to mention
recording techniques, has
increased exponentially in both
clarity and power. The production
controls are handed over to Judas
Priest and the result is a very
powerful, very slick, hard-rock
recording. From the
technical/stamina perspective,
Stained Glass is the ultimate
heavy-metal recording.
But even the most slick and
powerful of recordings requires
something more than sheer energy
and expertise alone be it fromhell
or direct-current
‘That is not to say that Stained
Glass is without its appeals, Some
people seem to enjoy loud,
inhergntly;pvil songs dealing
with topics such as “Saints in
Hell” and “Behond the Realms
of Death.” Such are particularly
popular among the early teen set
since they tend to drive parents
up-a-wall,
But regarding the audience
addressed on this occasion;
Stained Glass is of no interest and
Judas Priest minimal. The
sophisticated musical tastes of
anyone over sixteen would find
their approach both obnoxious
and immature. Once one has
grown out of Black Sabbath, there
is no need for regression of
musical tastes. There is no new
listening experience acquired
from Judas Priest, only cheap
reminder of something not worth
remembering.

The tunes of Hoppkorv
dominate side B with “I Wish You

and'*Talking About You.” Popular
opinion has it that these live cuts
fare superior to the studio versions
that preceded them.
“Funky #7" and “Serpent of

side C. These intense electric
tunes are typical Hot Tuna that
can be best appreciated during

wails through these cute and right
into “Bowlegged Woman, Knock

'T Can't Be Satisfied” and
the Yellow Fever favorit

Jorma’s vocals and guitar to lift
these tunes to a high level of
energy that is maintained
throughout the side.

it will be a valuable
addition to their collections. Any

of caution though. This is not an

Imperial Extravagance
|B 826 A.D. the emperor
Constantine ordered an
end to all gladiatorial
shows, buthisdecree was
not enforced. The shows
continued for the restof the fourth
century, and wild beasthuntseven
longer, Eventually only the
economic and political decline of
the empire put an end to the
entertainments of the arena.
‘There is a widely held belief that
Christian martyrs were put to
death in the Colosseum. This
belief is not strongly supported by
historical fact, but has been
romanticized in fiction and art.
‘The Colosseum is now a Christian
shrine and the site of an annual
service, A large cross has been
erected where an imperial box was
once located, Of the Christian
martyrs believed to have perished
in the Colosseum the most famour
is St, Ignatius of Antioch, whose
death occurred 160 A.D.
In the Middle Ages the building
‘was used as a fortress. It also was
the subject of much speculation: it
was counted among the seven
wonders of the world, and Virgil
was believed to have designed it.
More than any other monument it
represented the pagan past of the
city.
Renaissance architects drew
much inspiration from the
Colossoum. They also helped
themselves freely to its buidling
stones. Ironically those’ who
admired it most did most to
destroy it. Peter Brueghel's
painting of “The Tower of Babel”
(1563) was clearly inspired by the
Colosseum,
In the 17th and 18th centuries
there were plans to build within
the Colosseum a church in honor
of the martyrs. (Michelangelo had
already built the magnificent
church of Santa Maria degli
‘Angeli within the ruins of the
Baths of Diocletian.) Only lack of
funds kept those plans from being
realized. Goethe did some
sketching in the Colosseum, and
Lord Byron called it a “noble
wreck in ruinous perfection.”
In the middle of the 19th century
dense foliage and undergrowth
were cleared away." this century
Mussolini, who consciously
exploited antiquity to glorify hie
regime, tore down the buildings
around the Colosseum and created
‘splendid vista, He also created a
gigantic traffic island, and today's
faulomobile traffic has become &
threat to the celebrated ruin. Itis a
strange custom of today's Romans
to race their cars, amid loud
honking, around the Colosseum
when they celebrate a wedding. At
least one may assume that tho
devils and evil spirits once
haunting the place have all been
frightened away by the noise.

Loss of Diversity. . .
‘The sailing club will sail no more. The’ Outing Club will be
taking their tentsand gear and gocamping out by the Indian
Quad Lake, There will be no more intense solos from the
Jazz Society. These are some of the clubs which are the
victims of cutbacks mandated by the SA Budget Committee.
‘The loss of these clubs lessens the diversity that Student
Association can provide for the SUNY A student. SA policy
this year has leaned more toward supposedly “mass
programing” projects like the Record Co-op, and toward
establishing for itself a Murdoch-like role, with the: arrayof
new publications it has chosen to fund,
The philosophy behind this is that more students will
benefit from an on-campus co-op than a specialized club
with about 30 members. While this argument has merit,
where will it eventually lead to? Will SA be the owner of
four or five businesses and not much else in a few years?
Will students interested in becoming a part of an extra-
curricular activity, something to divert their time from
acedemics, be told that SA doesn't have much to offer them,
but they could go down and hang out at a jeans co-op if
they'd like?
... And the Student Tax
SA's recent hack job cannot be attributed to philosophy
alone. For the past nine years, SA has been asked to work
within the same basic budget because the student tax has
remained the same. It doesn’t take a financial whiz to see
that costs have skyrocketed in that time. In order for SA to
be able to provide equal services and avoid stagnation with
possible new projects, it is essential that the student tax be
raised.
It is also essential that SA watch the dollars it is now
doling out. Not only the $500 budgets of clubs. For instance,
one-third of thé’anticipated gain if the student tax is raised
from $66 to $70 next year was lost on the Student Dwellings
flop. This type of thing should be carefully monitored from
adminsitration to adminsitration. This year's programs
should not be next year's losses.
For SA's sake, the student tax should be raised in next
week's referendum. And for the student's sake, SA should
ensure that the money is wisely spent.
